[00:00] <houston> jimbeam12 : if it is based on the UVC standard it should "just work" out of the box
[00:00] <dsnyders> jimbeam12, In future, put everything on one line.  It's easier to read.
[00:00] <Scotie> have a resolution by 1024...
[00:00] <jimbeam12> ok cool
[00:00] <Trek> houston / jimbeam12: Logitech doesnt like *nix
[00:00] <emes> any suggestions for an 802.11n pci card with solid support (and available in the US)?
[00:00] <jimbeam12> so what a good webcam for unix..
[00:02] <patrick__> daftykins, so it still works. why doesnt studio 64bot come with a network manager ?
[00:02] <patrick__> daftykins, or was there more to it?
[00:02] <dsnyders> !repository
[00:02] <nDuff> jimbeam12, see the "supported devices" list at http://linux-uvc.berlios.de/
[00:02] <geminidomino> Before I have to wipe again, is there some way to "force"/specify monitor settings rather than trying to make ubuntu recognize them. I've tried modifying xorg.conf, but no dice.
[00:03] <jimbeam12> thx
[00:03] <daftykins> patrick__: it's possible it was as simple as the network manager, but you didn't have the interface before so that was odd. i've no idea about studio to be honest :)
[00:03] <orochi> back.  same problem.  getting an error message on youtube when i try to play a video that says i don't have the latest flash player or javascript is disabled.
[00:03] <daftykins> patrick__: we both learned something either way :D
[00:04] <loki87> network-manager tell me "Networkmanager disabled" what can i do ?
[00:04] <daftykins> loki87: right click the tray icon and tick "enable network" ? if it's there
[00:04] <FrozenFire> orochi: In Tools->Add-ons->Plugins, does it list Shockwave Flash?
[00:04] <orochi> yep
[00:04] <orochi> flash is working too
[00:04] <loki87> daftykins: can't click anything
[00:05] <lsj85> @loki87 I had the same problem I ended up doing a fresh install
[00:05] <loki87> thats not the way, i am sure that i can fix this
[00:05] <loki87> ubuntu is not windows
[00:06] <lsj85> i actually some how uninstalled mine couldn't get etho or wireless to work
[00:06] <lars__> hey i am trying to use aircrack, but when ever i use airmon b4 it gives me eth2 instead of a wlan...do i need to enable anything or download any packages b4 i use aircrack-ng...ill list the packages ive downloaded so far1)aircrack-ng2)airmon-ng3)macchanger4)airodump-ng...what am i doing wrong
[00:06] <loki87> ... god damn
[00:07] <lsj85> tried to reinstall it and it would not fetch i had no internet
[00:08] <jonex> Typos_Kings: it doesnt let me save  the doc
[00:08] <lars__> anybody wanna help me with some aircrack problems?
[00:08] <jimbeam12> later
[00:08] <orochi> get backtrack for aircrack
[00:08] <orochi> and what not
[00:09] <orochi> it's based on ubuntu
[00:09] <RedXIII> I'm having a problem side-by-side installing ubuntu 9.10 with xp
[00:09] <orochi> and everything is set up
[00:09] <RedXIII> I get to the partition manager but it doesn't give me the "side-by-side" option.
[00:09] <lsj85> @redxiii are you trying to install from live cd
[00:09] <v3rr3z> how do i Turn on sound support from kernel config
[00:10] <RedXIII> installing from live dvd 9.10
[00:10] <RedXIII> I hit "Install Ubuntu" and went through the prompts
[00:10] <RedXIII> maybe I should just boot to the desktop and do it using gparted?
[00:10] <histo> RedXIII: you mean dual boot
[00:10] <arand> RedXIII: What partitions are already on the drive? only XP?
[00:10] <lars__> i already got aircrack-ng, airmon-ng, macchanger and airodump_ng...do i need to enable anything so they can pick up a wifi signal
[00:10] <orochi> you need to go into monitor mode
[00:10] <RedXIII> Well according to hiren's bootcd it shows that there's a 8mb free unallocated sector and a winxp proff partition
[00:10] <histo> RedXIII: you wan tot resize the Xp partition and install ubuntu in the free space.
[00:11] <lsj85> madwifi
[00:11] <RedXIII> histo: exactly.
[00:11] <histo> RedXIII: well if you boot to the desktop you can use gparted to resize if you can't do it with the installer
[00:11] <RedXIII> That's what I'm doing now
[00:11] <RedXIII> I'm only familiar with KDE so this should be interesting.
[00:11] <orochi> lars__ if you're trying to crack wep and aircrack is giving you a hard time just get backtrack 4 and use gerix
[00:11] <orochi> it's much easier
[00:11] <orochi> for cracking wep
[00:12] <histo> or wesside on backtrack 4
[00:12] <ardchoille> My friend has a webcam, how do I view it with empaty?
[00:12] <histo> ardchoille: what chat protocal are youguys using?
[00:12] <lars__> ok ill give it a shot thanx...also does it work for wpa and wpa2 keys
[00:13] <ardchoille> histo: yahoo
[00:13] <histo> ardchoille: if yahoo supports it you will see a little camera next to his name in the buddy list
[00:13] <orochi> lars__ it does, but you need a dictionary file
[00:13] <orochi> cracking wpa is a lot different
[00:14] <histo> lars__: wesside works just use that
[00:14] <orochi> and a lot of the time it's impossible by using current methods
[00:14] <orochi> or at the very least it would take years
[00:14] <orochi> to crack
[00:14] <histo> lars__: it will search and find the nearest one or you can specify bssid and it does all the work for you
[00:14] <fabricio> buenas amigos, saludos a todos... amigos una duda.. estoy intentando instalar java en ubuntu 10.04 beta y no he podido si alguien me puede ayudar le agradeceria muchisimo..
[00:14] <Wren88> if my ram is 8 gig and this is a server how much swap space should i assgn?
[00:15] <histo> Wren88: make sure you use the server kernel
[00:15] <Wren88> i do
[00:15] <histo> Wren88: so you get pae support otherwise you'll only use 4gigs
[00:15] <fabricio> intente de forma manual, descargando el paquete autoejecutable desde la pagina de java pero no funciona... es decir se instala sin problemas pero no funciona java
[00:15] <Wren88> so 8 gig for the swap?
[00:15] <histo> Wren88: is it a 64bit machine?
[00:15] <Wren88> yeah
[00:15] <orochi> but yeah um...i'm having this really weird problem with youtube right now.  anyone have any ideas?  it doesn't think i have either the latest flash, or javascript enabled.  i do have the latest flash and javascript is enabled.
[00:16] <lars__> what do i run to get it i cant find it in synaptic...i just tried "sudo apt-get install backtrack4> is that right?
[00:16] <histo> Wren88: yeah thats fine I wouldn't go anything over that is unecessary you'll never really touch it anyways
[00:16] <geminidomino> Does anyone know of a way to fix/workaround the lcd monitor detection issue? I cant seem to get it to accept my settings even when I manually edit xorg.conf
[00:16] <nDuff> Wren88, depends on what kind of load you're going to be running. I rarely do more than 2gb in the common case
[00:16] <bsmith093> if i backup my entire hd does root have the authority to restore everything, or just the stuff owned by root
[00:16] <orochi> http://www.backtrack-linux.org/
[00:16] <histo> Wren88: I would even go lower like 2gigs I don't even touch swap ever
[00:16] <Wren88> what if i use hibernation?
[00:16] <nDuff> bsmith093, root can restore everything.
[00:16] <histo> Wren88: if you use hibernation i think you need to atleast match it.
[00:16] <bsmith093> even the normal user stuff
[00:17] <nDuff> Wren88, ...ahh, in _that_ case you want your total RAM _plus_ 2gb
[00:17] <histo> bsmith093: root can see everything.
[00:17] <Wren88> thanks...!
[00:17] <bsmith093> \ok then thanks
[00:17] <histo> bsmith093: the only way it couldn't is if your /home is encrypted or something.
[00:17] <RedXIII> oh wth
[00:17] <RedXIII> gparted failed on me.
[00:17] <bsmith093> its not
[00:17] <RedXIII> I'm confused on this partition thing.
[00:18] <fabricio> hi everyone i said this in spanish so nobody understand me before, i'm trying to install java on my ubuntu 10.04 beta but i can't
[00:18] <shadowz_> can someone tell me how i hide my ip address whenn i enter a room ?
[00:18] <RedXIII> I have a winxp prof partition (/dev/sda1) and somehow unallocated space of 7.84 MB
[00:18] <histo> RedXIII: here's what I would do. Boot XP then defrag the drive.  Make sure you have a backup of your important files. Then boot live cd and resize the ntfs partition.
[00:18] <histo> RedXIII: thats fine just resize /dev/sda1
[00:18] <RedXIII> The system has to be defraged?
[00:18] <fabricio> i already try manually, downloading the autopackage from java and installation go fine but doesn't work sorry about my english
[00:18] <RedXIII> I defragged recently but not after I deleted a crapload of files.
[00:19] <matmatmat> hello
[00:19] <histo> RedXIII: Its recomended and I would backup your important files first incase soemthing blows up.
[00:19] <csgeek> how do I check which package owns a file?
[00:19] <histo> !resize | RedXIII
[00:19] <RedXIII> Nothing important on the drive.
[00:19] <nDuff> csgeek, dpkg -S
[00:19] <RedXIII> I -can't- resize the /dev/sda1. I tried to grow it to take up that extra 7MB and it said FAILED.
[00:19] <jmk-mcfaul> ubuntu 9.10, 64-bit AMD.  my onboard NIC starts dropping packets whenever I install a Hauppauge 2250 TV tuner card.  Any troubleshooting suggestions?
[00:19] <histo> RedXIII: You would want to make it smaller to make room for ubuntu
[00:19] <fabricio> and control center show me the option to install it but only says UPDATE, no say INSTALL thanks and sorry for my english again
[00:19] <histo> !dualboot | RedXIII
[00:19] <csgeek> hmm. I tried that.. didn't work.  dpkg -S /usr/bin/qmake just says not found
[00:20] <lsj85> do a full install and virtual box xp
[00:20] <emes> any suggestions for an 802.11n pci card with solid support (and available in the US)?
[00:20] <histo> csgeek: tyep in     which qmake
[00:20] <ardchoille> histo: so empathy has webcam support compiled in?
[00:20] <filo1234> hi there, someone are using google-chrome? i need to see permission of /opt/google/chrome/chrome-sandbox
[00:20] <matmatmat> my screen is flickering when theres motion on it
[00:20] <histo> csgeek: and what are you trying to do with it.
[00:20] <histo> ardchoille: yes.
[00:20] <bobbo> filo1234, you shouldn't, how you installing chrome?
[00:21] <matmatmat> got the nvidia proprietary drivers
[00:21] <RedXIII> This is a 2.5" sata drive if that means anything
[00:21] <RedXIII> btw.
[00:21] <ardchoille> filo1234:  -rwsr-xr-x 1 root root 11K 2010-02-20 23:44 /opt/google/chrome/chrome-sandbox
[00:21] <histo> emes: linksys?
[00:21] <orochi> how would i go about completely removing firefox?  selecting completely remove in synaptic and apt-get purge don't seem to be enough.
[00:21] <moosekaka> hello i have a hardware router question: when i reinstalled my winxp (dual boot with hardy) my dlink 615 router suddenly stopped working for wireless (wires is ok)...cannot get an IP in linux...doesnt matter if its NM or WICD
[00:21] <orochi> all my settings are still in tact when i reinstall it and my weird problem is still there.
[00:21] <TannerF> Anyone know the date when 10.04 is due?
[00:21] <moosekaka> however once i reinstalled the router driver in XP it works again in linux
[00:21] <histo> moosekaka: what type of wireless card do you have?
[00:21] <RedXIII> I tried following the guide on ubuntu. It gave me a partition fail
[00:21] <RedXIII> Much like gparted is now
[00:21] <histo> moosekaka: the firmware is needed for your card.
[00:21] <moosekaka> broadcom 440 ?intel wireless pro
[00:22] <csgeek> I'm just trying to know which packages ships / installs a file.
[00:22] <ardchoille> TannerF: some time in 04 0f 2010 (10.04)
[00:22] <histo> RedXIII: try refragging
[00:22] <bobbo> TannerF, we expect release on 29th of April (2010)
[00:22] <histo> RedXIII: defragging sry
[00:22] <moosekaka> so firmware is stored on the router? confused
[00:22] <TannerF> bobbo: thanks
[00:22] <emes> histo: that's not especially helpful
[00:22] <csgeek> workong on packaging something... actually helping someone package something
[00:22] <lsj85> redxiii why noy try a full install and do xp on virtual
[00:22] <filo1234> bobbo: why? i shoudn't?? i can but i saw that permission are setuid in chrome-sandbox -rwsr-xr-x 1 root root 11272 2010-03-24 19:23 /opt/google/chrome an i like to know if it is correct
[00:22] <histo> csgeek: dpkg -l | grep qmake
[00:22] <RedXIII> lsj85: Its a laptop
[00:22] <ardchoille> histo: Thank you :)
[00:22] <RedXIII> with like 1gig of memory
[00:22] <histo> moosekaka: no the firmware for your wireless card is the issue
[00:22] <RedXIII> VB isn't a great idea for these system specs
[00:22] <bobbo> filo1234, did you install from a tarball of the (semi-official) chromium ppa?
[00:22] <bobbo> s/of/or/
[00:23] <histo> moosekaka: the driver loads the firmware so it doesn't work unless its present
[00:23] <filo1234> bobbo: .deb from google
[00:23] <RedXIII> I virtualbox windows on my kubuntu machine, but that's about it.
[00:23] <histo> !wireless | moosekaka
[00:23] <lsj85> i got mine set up like that got 25 gigs for xp professional
[00:23] <lsj85> on virtual
[00:23] <bobbo> filo1234, could you !pastebin the exact error message you get?
[00:23] <histo> !who | RedXIII
[00:24] <RedXIII> histo: lol I'll try defragging now
[00:24] <filo1234> bobbo: i don't have errors, i only curious to know if that permissions are correct, bobbo do you have google-chrome?
[00:24] <Guest61703> Hi. I've just got a quick question. If <uptime> shows 3 users, but only one user besides root exists, how f*cked am I? and who's no. 3?
[00:24] <moosekaka> im just confused why i needed to run the install driver CD for the router in xp before linux could get the router to work...short answer is that firmware wasnt loaded? but how can linux know where the firmware for the driver is since i installed in XP
[00:24] <RedXIII> I don't know if it'll clear my issues though.
[00:25] <bobbo> filo1234, I used to have chromium from a semi-official PPA
[00:25] <lakeoftea> lol my uptime shows 5 users
[00:25] <lakeoftea> i'm the only one on . . . how do i know which users are logged in?
[00:25] <histo> moosekaka: the issue is most likely that your card works fine in Xp but doesn't in linux. Has nothign to do with the router
[00:25] <Guest61703> nice.. why tho?
[00:25] <histo> lakeoftea: are you logged in the ttys?
[00:25] <histo> lakeoftea: and who    in a console will tell you
[00:25] <EduardoRT> Hey, Does anyone knoes any mexican channel?
[00:25] <filo1234> bobbo: can i see your ls -l /opt/google/chrome/chrome-sandbox ? please?
[00:25] <histo> !es > EduardoRT
[00:25] <moosekaka> well it works fine now in linux after i reinstalled the drivers in xp
[00:25] <bobbo> filo1234, I didn't have it installed in /opt
[00:26] <EduardoRT> Thanks
[00:26] <moosekaka> thats whats confusing me....everything i did in xp is on a separate partition
[00:26] <bobbo> filo1234, I'ma BRB then I'll PM you , okay?
[00:26] <histo> moosekaka: So the card didn't work in xp untill you isntalled what?
[00:26] <filo1234> bobbo: ok
[00:26] <moosekaka> the driver CD that came with the dlink 615 router...in xp
[00:26] <taylorjb> moosekaka: buy a linksys wrt54gl and flash it with tomato 1.27 (http://www.polarcloud.com/tomato). you'll be happy then.
[00:26] <bsmith093> .dmrc file being ignored
[00:26] <histo> moosekaka: thats not a driver cd. Routers don't have drivers
[00:27] <histo> moosekaka: its probably a setup disk that you don't really need.
[00:27] <moosekaka> taylor jb: im happy now everything works :) just confused why i had to do something in XP first before it wor
[00:27] <moosekaka> worked in linux
[00:27] <fabienandre> 9.9
[00:27] <histo> moosekaka: your cd ffor the router probably blew out whatever settings where causing the issue with the router
[00:28] <forestlurks> how do i turn off the announcements of people logging in and leaving a room?  im using irssi in ubuntu 9.10..
[00:28] <histo> moosekaka: but you don't need the cd you can point a browser at the IP of the router to configure it.
[00:28] <histo> forestlurks: /help ignore
[00:28] <moosekaka> histo: hmmn interesting but still i did the CD thing on the NTFS partition...if nothing is stored on the router how can it fix the issue for linux?
[00:29] <Wren88> is there file in ubuntu in case of power failure and on batteries hibernate after x amount of time?
[00:29] <histo> forestlurks: also there is #irssi
[00:29] <ubutom> moosekaka, may be rubbish what I'm talking, but I think sometimes hardware gets locked by an OS
[00:29] <histo> moosekaka: becuase the Router settings got changed when you ran the cd.
[00:29] <ubutom> moosekaka, happened to me with some network card or modem some time ago
[00:30] <forestlurks> thanks histo
[00:30] <jeffesquivel> hmm, I kind of like this ubuntu netbook edition...
[00:30] <Guest61703> Thanks histo
[00:30] <histo> ubutom: he's not having a card issue but a router issue he thinks. Thats what I was trying to explain originally that firmware on some wifi cards is loaded by the drivers.
[00:30] <moosekaka> router settings: where are they stored? on the host computer? becos the wireless is on my laptop....and the router is connected to a PC
[00:30] <jeffesquivel> does anybody knows if there is an ubuntu netbook specific IRC channel?
[00:31] <ubutom> histo, yeah, but it could be the samething, other OS doesn't terminate the device right and next OS can't use it
[00:31] <thisguykills> hi
[00:31] <histo> jeffesquivel: /msg alis list *searchterm*
[00:31] <thisguykills> can anyone help a noobie?
[00:31] <Wren88> is there file in ubuntu in case of power failure and on batteries hibernate after x amount of time?
[00:31] <bobbo> jeffesquivel, not as far as I know, are you having an issue with Ubuntu Netbook Remix?
[00:31] <histo> ubutom: well its a firmware issue that you are described causing the locking.
[00:32] <IdleOne> thisguykills: only if you ask a question :)
[00:32] <thisguykills> I can't seem to copy and paste a file in terminal :\
[00:32] <histo> thisguykills: are you in X?
[00:32] <thisguykills> Gnome
[00:32] <m3> how do i get my window borders back after removing netbook remix ?
[00:32] <IdleOne> thisguykills: ctrl+shift+c to copy
[00:32] <histo> thisguykills: okay highlight text and then middle mouse button to paste
[00:32] <ubutom> histo, yeah, did dual boot while having that issue, I think it was an internal NIc or modem, don't remember exactly
[00:32] <bobbo> !question | thisguykills
[00:32] <moosekaka> ok thanks i did get a message when i was running the router setup cd asking me for a username and password
[00:32] <jeffesquivel> bobbo, not issues... just wanted to know if it is possible to add panels to i
[00:32] <jeffesquivel> t
[00:32] <Wren88> .
[00:33] <thisguykills> well I need to copy a file to /usr/bin/ to change my toolbar look
[00:33] <histo> thisguykills: or you can ctrl+shft+c and ctrl+shfit+v
[00:33] <thisguykills> It won't give me permission
[00:33] <IdleOne> thisguykills: mv /tis/file /to/here
[00:33] <histo> thisguykills: open both files or echo one to the other
[00:33] <bobbo> jeffesquivel, add "categories" to UNR?
[00:33] <histo> !sudo | thisguykills
[00:33] <moosekaka> for future ref....its possible to configure the router directly in linux by specifying the IP?
[00:33] <Wren88> .
[00:33] <histo> thisguykills: sudo mv /source/file /destination/file
[00:34] <thisguykills> ok thanks let me try
[00:34] <jeffesquivel> bobbo, i mean, applets
[00:34] <bobbo> jeffesquivel, add applets to the UNR top panel?
[00:34] <rdvonz> Excuse me, I've been hacking away for hours trying to get my monitor's resolution to be correctly recognized. This just recently happened, Can someone help?
[00:34] <jeffesquivel> bobbo, yep
[00:34] <Guest61703> mv is move right? I thought he wanted to copy
[00:34] <histo> rdvonz: what type of video card?
[00:34] <jeffesquivel> bobbo, i'm using lucid beta 1, just in case it matters
[00:34] <rdvonz> histo: Onboard video card
[00:34] <bobbo> jeffesquivel, I've not used UNR for a while but have you tired right clicking on the top panel?
[00:34] <histo> rdvonz: yeah what chipset?
[00:35] <histo> rdvonz: lspci | grep VGA
[00:35] <Wren88> im trying to get my xchat to display a different when inserted respond in the chat room
[00:35] <jeffesquivel> bobbo, first thing I tried :-)
[00:35] <bobbo> jeffesquivel, towards the top right, if you right click it may ask you to add to panel?
[00:35] <rdvonz> histo: 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: S3 Inc. VT8375 [ProSavage8 KM266/KL266]
[00:35] <histo> rdvonz: ughh
[00:35] <aetaric> oh wow... an s3
[00:35] <rdvonz> histo: I know.
[00:35] <histo> ancient
[00:36] <jeffesquivel> bobbo, I tried to right click on an "empty" space on the panel
[00:36] <aetaric> i think i have one out in the garage XD
[00:36] <histo> rdvonz: I'm trying to remember what I had to do with mine I had an old pc with one of those.
[00:36] <jeffesquivel> bobbo, but didn't get the usual menu
[00:36] <histo> rdvonz: I think the s3 driver was blacklisted on default ubuntu installe
[00:36] <jeffesquivel> the one I get on ubuntu classic
[00:36] <bobbo> jeffesquivel, that's weird, it should work the normal way
[00:36] <Wren88> .
[00:36] <bobbo> jeffesquivel, seems like a bug to me
[00:36] <vrxchk> i tried ubuntu on a 500mhz celery once.. big mistake. heh
[00:37] <arielCo> Hello everyone! I'll ask right away: I just replaced OpenJDK with sun-java6-*, and I changed the value of JAVA_HOME in /etc/environment. Now how do I tell Gnome to "refresh" its environment without logging off?
[00:37] <Wren88> lol celery
[00:37] <moosekaka> another thing....i wished windows had a /home partition......everytime i reinstall my OS i have to reinstall everything.....eventhough i have my USERS folder on another partition it is not trivial to reuse it :(
[00:37] <rdvonz> histo: Take your time, I've been at this for hours. :'(
[00:37] <histo> rdvonz: let me do some searching hold up
[00:37] <vrxchk> i always call 'em celeries

[00:37] <jeffesquivel> bobbo, I read somewhere that is how UNR panel works... just wanted to know if someone knew some easy hack or something (like the one to have multiple workspaces)
[00:38] <vrxchk> 9.10 runs on my nettop ok
[00:38] <Wren88> .
[00:38] <jophish> I have a program that is a countdown to a date in the future. How would I do something like the telnet star wars (telnet://towel.blinkenlights.nl), so when a user telnets to my ip, they get just the output of this program? I suspect that inetd is involved somehow.
[00:38] <moosekaka> sorry not meant to go OT
[00:38] <bobbo> jeffesquivel, unfortunately not, if you need a bunch of customisation I think you'll need the main ubuntu-desktop instead of UNR
[00:38] <Wren88> whats the eta for Lucid?
[00:39] <IdleOne> !lucid
[00:39] <bobbo> jeffesquivel, I think UNR is for the most basic netbook stuff e :)

[00:39] <Wren88> ty
[00:39] <nDuff> jophish, several ways to do it; my favorite is tcpsvd (from the "runit" package)
[00:39] <solow> bobbo xD
[00:39] <histo> rdvonz: also I found a thread discussing the 9.10 issue
[00:40] <histo> rdvonz: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1337333
[00:40] <jophish> nDuff, and that would allow people to telnet to my ip and see the programs output?
[00:40] <Lajosward> Anyone have a few mins to help me out
[00:40] <histo> !ask > Lajosward
[00:40] <Typos_King> !ask | Lajosward
[00:40] <nDuff> jophish, if you tell tcpsvd to connect port 23 to your program, yes
[00:40] <jeffesquivel> bobbo, ok, thanks!
[00:40] <rdvonz> histo: Thanks, I'm just baffled as to why this happened a week after installing. It was working fine at 1280x1024 resolution before..
[00:40] <jeffesquivel> bobbo, I think the interface is really useful small screens
[00:40] <craigbass1976> what's the best way to get firefox 3.5 in Hardy? http://ubuntumanual.org/posts/193/installing-firefox-3-5-in-ubuntu-the-easy-way ?
[00:40] <histo> rdvonz: upgrade to one of the X packages probably
[00:41] <sprung> Hi, I am using gnome and want to change the function of what F10 does when i am in a terminal window. When I press F10, it selects the window of the menu. This is causing me problems when I use jed to write c programs because F10 is used in jed to open its text-based menu.
[00:41] <Wren88> .
[00:41] <jophish> well, I could forward port 23 on the router to anything on the server
[00:41] <jeffesquivel> bobbo, and I like it... the thing is, I am used to some of the functionality I have on my laptop
[00:41] <nDuff> jophish, ...hrm, let me amend that -- it's actually in "ipsvd", a separate package from runit (though they're from the same author and often used together)
[00:41] <Wren88> anyone good with xchat?
[00:41] <histo> rdvonz: you could try rolling back if you figure otu which package.  most like xserver-video-s3 or somethign like that.
[00:41] <jophish> and thanks very much nDuff
[00:41] <jeffesquivel> bobbo, :-)
[00:41] <Trek> Wren88, yeah, why?
[00:41] <IdleOne> Wren88: please ask, there is also #xchat if nobody here can help
[00:41] <Typos_King> craigbass1976:    why can't you just download it from mozilla.org?    get the .bz2 package, all it needs is unzip and run, no install required
[00:41] <histo> rdvonz: you may have the old package in /var/cache/apt/archives/
[00:41] <tyranos> sprung, just go to menu and deactivate show menubar
[00:41] <rdvonz> histo: Wow, the forum thread you sent me is the EXACT same thing that's happening too me. Even the same distro.
[00:41] <nDuff> jophish, ...docs for both at http://smarden.org/runit/ and http://smarden.org/ipsvd/
[00:42] <sprung> tyranos, good idea, didnt think of that
[00:42] <Lajosward> I am wanting to have a bottom screen like this one http://gnome-look.org/content/preview.php?preview=1&id=72425&file1=72425-1.png&file2=72425-2.png&file3=72425-3.png&name=Mac+OSX+Leopard+10.5+Full+pack and not sure how to go about it
[00:42] <jophish> sounds good. Thanks again
[00:42] <bobbo> jeffesquivel, I love UNR it's just *too* simple some of the time
[00:42] <Wren88> well everytime i type a response a it shows in gray front I tried messing with the colors but no good
[00:42] <tyranos> sprung, i had the same problem :)
[00:42] <jeffesquivel> bobbo, ies
[00:42] <jeffesquivel> *yes
[00:42] <Alxandr> I'm having some problems installing ubuntu 9.10 server on my server. It fails to install grub2 (may be caused by my fake-raid setup).
[00:42] <histo> bobbo: you can use normal gnome instead of the UNR interface its just running on top of gnome
[00:42] <nwillems> Hi there - I just talked with a nice guy over at the LXDE channel anf found out that my pcmanfm for LXDE is outdated, how would I get the newer version?
[00:42] <Alxandr> Any suggestions as to what I may do?
[00:42] <IdleOne> Wren88: that is the default behavior
[00:43] <Trek> Wren88: what IdleOne said
[00:43] <histo> nwillems: is there a problem witht he version you have?
[00:43] <jophish> nDuff, it seems at the basic level to do exactly the same thing as inetd
[00:43] <jiohdi> nwillems: you can use thunar, its lightweight too
[00:43] <Wren88> so it changeable?
[00:43] <histo> !backports | nwillems
[00:43] <jophish> invokes a program on a socket connection, with stdin and stdout as the socket
[00:43] <patrick__> If i download an application from add/remove programs, does it automatically grab the right one? 32/64bit?
[00:43] <bobbo> histo, yes, UNR is a modified gnome, except it ues a repacement for gnome-panel which means that a bunch of gnome-panel functionality foesn't work
[00:43] <arand> patrick__: yes
[00:43] <histo> patrick__: yes
[00:43] <craigbass1976> Typos_King, can I run flash and everything without installing it?
[00:43] <patrick__> arand, histo I love you guys :]
[00:44] <histo> sprung: System > preferences > keyboard shortcut
[00:44] <craigbass1976> Typos_King, and will it import my 3.0 profile?
[00:44] <Trek> Wren88: ask in #xchat, they would know
[00:44] <Typos_King> craigbass1976:    that doesn't include flash, no, you can install flash from the repositories though
[00:44] <Trek> Wren88: /join #xchat
[00:44] <Alxandr> I'm having some problems installing ubuntu 9.10 server on my server. It fails to install grub2 (may be caused by my fake-raid setup). It just pops up with a menu displaying the install-order (and I might select what I wan't it to do), but installing grub just returns to that menu.
[00:44] <Lajosward> Anyone know how i can make my bottom bar graphical instead of the bar that it is now?
[00:44] <freeman> Hey guys. What's the defualt MYSQL password in ubuntu 9.10 ? It won't let me log in, but I was never the guy that set it up. It was default with ubuntu 9.10
[00:44] <nwillems> histo: Yes, the version I'm running is 0.5.1 and the LXDE peps have released 0.5.2 as a "bugfix" for shared-mime-info version 0.7, so it would be nice if 0.5.2 of pcmanfm was std in ubuntu repos
[00:44] <Wren88> thanks
[00:44] <histo> Lajosward: you can customize it however youw ant.
[00:45] <coz_> freeman,  graphical?
[00:45] <jeffesquivel> bobbo, and I think something like workspaces is even more useful on small screens
[00:45] <coz_> freeman,  sorry wrong person
[00:45] <Lajosward> http://gnome-look.org/content/preview.php?preview=1&id=72425&file1=72425-1.png&file2=72425-2.png&file3=72425-3.png&name=Mac+OSX+Leopard+10.5+Full+pack
[00:45] <craigbass1976> Typos_King, and it will run in a "not installed" instance of FF?  Just seems weird
[00:45] <histo> Lajosward: there is an eyecandy / desktop customization section of the forums
[00:45] <freeman> lol
[00:45] <coz_> Lajosward,  graphical?
[00:45] <Lajosward> that coz
[00:45] <Lajosward> at the bottom
[00:45] <bobbo> jeffesquivel, IIRC workspaces exist in UNR, if not it's definitely a bug
[00:45] <histo> Lajosward: there are dock applications to do that.
[00:45] <coz_> Lajosward,  I am not sure what you mean by g
[00:45] <Lajosward> ok ty
[00:45] <aetaric> Alxandr: if i recall, you can't install grub on a fake-raid disk
[00:45] <histo> coz_: he means like the mac doc
[00:46] <coz_> histo,  mm
[00:46] <Alxandr> What?
[00:46] <coz_> Lajosward,  oh an actual dock?
[00:46] <Lajosward> yes
[00:46] <coz_> Lajosward,   cairo dock
[00:46] <Alxandr> Then how can I have the fakeRAID then?
[00:46] <Lajosward> ty
[00:46] <Typos_King> craigbass1976:    no, but you can get the libflashplayer.so file and drop it in the /usr/lib/mozilla plugins folder and that'll do
[00:46] <aetaric> Lajosward: or docky
[00:46] <swat__> ola
[00:46] <histo> Lajosward: there is also avant window navigator and others
[00:46] <Lajosward> either  better or is that a intel amd question?
[00:47] <aetaric> Alxandr: you need to make a partition just for /boot and install grub to that
[00:47] <swat__> brasil
[00:47] <Alxandr> On a separate hdd?
[00:47] <histo> Lajosward: I would see the comments on gnome-look people usually list what they are running to achieve the effect. also the forums
[00:47] <DasEi> is there an easy way to extract the source code (c++) from a tarball ? if I did the configure, is this plain c++ then (if it was written in, sure) ?
[00:47] <swat__> no inge
[00:47] <jeffesquivel> bobbo, they do... but you need to "activate" them (change their number) through gconf-editor
[00:48] <bobbo> sory to anyone I'm helping but I gotta go to bed
[00:48] <jeffesquivel> bobbo, and I can't get the applet (so I can change workspaces using the mouse, not just the keyboard shortcut)
[00:48] <DasEi> !br | swat_
[00:48] <aetaric> Alxandr: it can be the disk as the fake-raid. i normally make a 200MB ext3 /boot partition
[00:48] <jeffesquivel> bobbo, ok, good night... thanks!
[00:48] <histo> DasEi: it should be after youe xtract the tar should be plain c
[00:48] <bobbo> goodnight all, if you need to contact me I'm at bobbo [at] ubuntu [dot] com
[00:48] <DasEi> histo: thanks, trying
[00:48] <Typos_King> DasEi:     chances are, it's, just unzip it or untar it:)
[00:48] <aetaric> my god i've forgotten how to use english >.<
[00:48] <DasEi> yup
[00:48] <histo> bobbo: huh?
[00:49] <Alxandr> aetaric: How do I set that up? I choose to enable the fakeraid-controller in the installation of ubuntu before selecting partitions...
[00:49] <Typos_King> heheh
[00:49] <Lajosward> how can i reg my name on this ?
[00:49] <histo> bobbo: how do you have a ubuntu.com mail address?
[00:49] <histo> !register > Lajosward
[00:49] <coz_> Lajosward,   type   /msg nickserv help
[00:49] <Typos_King> histo:    anti-spider-eavesdropping email I gather heheh
[00:49] <IdleOne> histo: bobbo is an ubuntu/member
[00:50] <aetaric> Alxandr: you would have to setup a partition in the partition manager before you even get to the copying files stage.
[00:50] <histo> IdleOne: can i pm you?
[00:50] <Lajosward> ty coz that reminded me
[00:50] <Roasted> hay guyz.
[00:50] <coz_> Lajosward,  no problem
[00:50] <IdleOne> histo: sure :)
[00:50] <bobbo> histo, I'm an Ubuntu developer so I've been rewarded with an uber epic email address :P
[00:50] <Alxandr> aetaric: That's ok, but before the partition-stage there is the raid stage....
[00:50] <Roasted> how do I remove a kernel? The newest kernel for jaunty doesnt let my video work.
[00:50] <rdvonz_> histo: You saved me from going into a ballistic rage and possibly throwing my monitor out the window. You are the best! Thank you!
[00:50] <Roasted> histo, whats up? You helped me with wireless the other day.
[00:51] <Alxandr> aetaric: Anyway, can I setup software-raid0 in linux? Than I can just don't use the fakeRAID...
[00:52] <aetaric> Alxandr: yeah you can setup software raid. just make a /boot partition to boot off of.
[00:52] <Alxandr> But does softwareraid support raid0?
[00:52] <un214> it better
[00:52] <solow> i love how ubuntu handles files as fast
[00:53] <aetaric> i'm not sure. >.<
[00:53] <solow> <3
[00:53] <nDuff> Alxandr, yes
[00:54] <Alxandr> Any guid of how to install my server and setup raid0 (software-raid)?
[00:54] <nDuff> Alxandr, ...though why you'd consider halving your MTBF just to get some extra speed unless you're doing video editing is a different discussion
[00:54] <histo> rdvonz_: np
[00:54] <histo> Roasted: hola
[00:54] <histo> Roasted: what type of video card?
[00:54] <Alxandr> nDuff: I'm not sertain of whata you mean...
[00:55] <Roasted> histo, There's an ATI sticker on it - that's all I know.
[00:55] <histo> Roasted: did you try going to System > admin > hardware drivers?
[00:55] <magicianlord> hey money
[00:55] <Roasted> histo, I had to use jaunty on it since karmic cant handle the wireless on it. I have the .14 kernel and it works (or .11 or something). If I go to the newest kernel I get nothing.
[00:55] <magicianlord> what
[00:55] <magicianlord> what's cookin?
[00:55] <Roasted> histo, let me boot back into the other kernel and check it out. Im 99% positive the only restricted driver available was a modem driver.
[00:55] <magicianlord> im using karmic
[00:55] <histo> Roasted: how did you install the drivers in .11
[00:55] <magicianlord> on dell mini 9
[00:56] <magicianlord> any questions, let me know
[00:56] <Roasted> histo, what drivers? I didn't install anything on .11
[00:56] <nDuff> Alxandr, MTBF -- mean time between failure; you're setting yourself up to lose data if either of two drives fails, meaning you're twice as likely to have a random failure as only one non-RAIDed drive
[00:56] <histo> !ati | Roasted
[00:56] <Moshpet> Trying to figure out what to do with a grub error
[00:56] <histo> Roasted: using the proper driver will solve most of yoru issues
[00:56] <bobbo> Moshpet, what Grub error number?
[00:56] <histo> Roasted: the other option is to just remove the .14 kernel and lock it at the .11 or whatever works
[00:57] <Roasted> histo, I think I may do that... just remove the newer driver. First le tme see if drivers are available.
[00:57] <histo> Roasted: to figure otu what ati card you have try lspci | grep VGA
[00:57] <Moshpet> It didn't give me a number, it just gives a command line with grub infront of it.
[00:57] <Alxandr> nDuff: Well. Problem is, I have 2 drives that isn't too big.. But I might make it with what I have though :-)
[00:57] <frybye> danes_ no part time jobs your end.. this needs to go into ##foobar&grill though
[00:57] <dailystruggle> does anyone know yum
[00:57] <magicianlord> yes, i do
[00:57] <histo> Roasted: pay special attention to the if your card is newer or older in the fglrx section of the wiki
[00:57] <Alxandr> nDuff: So, for now I just install into 1 disk? And separate out a /boot partition on its own?
[00:57] <histo> !anyone > dailystruggle
[00:57] <magicianlord> what is your question
[00:58] <Wren88> Out of the many linux distros I've used Ubuntu is the friendliest
[00:58] <pvl1> has anyone gotten android source to compile on 9.10
[00:58] <aetaric> Alxandr: if you use just one disc, don't bother
[00:58] <magicianlord> ubuntu is the friendliest
[00:58] <magicianlord> however, 9.10 is hte strongest release
[00:58] <Roasted> histo, the only hardware drivers are alternate atheros madwifi driver and software modem. :(
[00:58] <magicianlord> i think we need to provide feedback to the developers on 10.04
[00:58] <un214> yum: a word we say when food tastes good
[00:59] <magicianlord> they made an awful choice of usplash and window themes
[00:59] <Wren88> Centos is not too user friendly even for a sysadmin
[00:59] <aetaric> Roasted: install madwifi?
[00:59] <Alxandr> aetaric: One disk isnt' big enough to all that I need on the server. But it shouldn't be too big a problem to maintain the OS on one disk.
[00:59] <pvl1> magicianlord, idk i was really please with like 9.04. i got ticked off at a few chanegs in 9.10
[00:59] <nDuff> Alxandr, if your problem is capacity, not speed, you might consider using LVM; an unstriped LV spanning two PVs will give you the capacity you're looking for, but with a better chance of data being recoverable in the case of a failure than if everything had been striped.
[00:59] <Roasted> aetaric, I'm dealing with a graphics issue - not the wifi issue. That's a whole other story in itself.
[00:59] <magicianlord> pvl1: i understand. however, 9.10 is faster and more stable
[00:59] <magicianlord> ext4 is better implemented
[00:59] <pvl1> magicianlord, in that id probably agree
[00:59] <Roasted> magic_ninja420, than what? 9.04?
[00:59] <Roasted> errrr not magic_ninja420
[00:59] <histo> rossco: did you get the link for the wiki
[00:59] <Roasted> magicianlord,
[00:59] <magicianlord> i primarily used crunchbang 9.04
[01:00] <histo> Roasted: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto#ATI%20%28fglrx%29
[01:00] <Alxandr> nDuff: Thank you, will do.
[01:00] <pvl1> magicianlord, crunchbang?
[01:00] <magicianlord> and now use 9.10 gnome on this pc, along with archbang (arch with openbox) on another
[01:00] <histo> magicianlord: 10.04 is really fast
[01:00] <magicianlord> yes
[01:00] <histo> pvl1: crunchbang is a custom ubuntu distro running openbox
[01:00] <pvl1> oh
[01:00] <magicianlord> crunchbang is jaunty with openbox
[01:00] <pvl1> kewl
[01:00] <nDuff> Alxandr, ...also, as long as you use LVM, you can install on just one drive now, and expand the VG and LV to include another drive later when you need more space
[01:00] <histo> pvl1: #!
[01:00] <Roasted> histo, its a radeon xpress 200m
[01:00] <dailystruggle> magicianlord: what did I get cesured because I said anyone?
[01:01] <magicianlord> dailystruggle: floodbot probably
[01:01] <histo> Roasted: then you follow this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI
[01:01] <magicianlord> need a censure update
[01:01] <magicianlord> needs
[01:01] <Alxandr> nDuff: That means if I buy new drive and pop it in, I can expand to that too later?
[01:01] <nDuff> Alxandr, yup
[01:01] <magicianlord> i do think 10.04 is fast
[01:02] <dailystruggle> magicianlord: it was from histo
[01:02] <magicianlord> but whether its faster than 9.10, i dont know yet
[01:02] <Crash2108> BIOS says "cannot find drive 1"
[01:02] <magicianlord> oh ok
[01:02] <Alxandr> nDuff: "Amount of volume group to use for guided partitioning:"?
[01:02] <thisguykills> Hi, what program do I need to install screenlets?
[01:02] <aetaric> all?
[01:02] <histo> Roasted: or you can try using envyng to install appropriate drivers
[01:02] <histo> !envy > Roasted
[01:03] <nDuff> Alxandr, I'm not very familiar with the current installer, but I'd presume that would be asking if you wanted to leave unallocated space in the volume group
[01:03] <dailystruggle> magicianlord: is there a good resource for yum that you know of
[01:03] <Roasted> histo, maybe Ill try envy-ng. I forgot that was still around.
[01:03] <thisguykills> does anyone know?
[01:03] <histo> thisguykills: sudo apt-get install screenlets
[01:03] <thisguykills> ok thanks
[01:03] <pvl1> ive recently installed backtraack, so ima be learning that. but i run ubunyu almost exclusivly on all my pc's
[01:03] <nDuff> Alxandr, ...that can be useful if you want to use features like snapshots, but from what I understand of your use case, it's probably not what you're looking to do here.
[01:03] <histo> Roasted: well its updated
[01:03] <histo> Roasted: envy was never supported but envy-ng is i guess. I haven't played with it in ages.
[01:03] <magicianlord> dailystruggle: there should be a wiki on yum use, or you can always look up the manual in terminal by typing "man yum"
[01:04] <histo> pvl1: well you'll find linux is pretty much linus
[01:04] <histo> pvl1: just different package managers and versions of packages etc...
[01:04] <pvl1> yeah
[01:04] <dailystruggle> magicianlord: I did that
[01:04] <histo> pvl1: you can do all the stuff on backtrack on ubuntu
[01:04] <pvl1> ive been playing with linux since ive been like 12
[01:04] <magicianlord> not enough for you?
[01:04] <histo> pvl1: they jsut put all the tools in one nice place.
[01:04] <pvl1> histo, i know, but its preinstalled with all that, and i dont wanna be root on this ubunut all the time bc i got fiels here
[01:05] <histo> dailystruggle: what are you trying to do with yum?
[01:05] <pvl1> histo, im sure once i learn lots bout backtrack ima just do w.e i wanna on bt, on ubuntu
[01:05] <dailystruggle> magicianlord: no the practical uses like update and repolist are very diff
[01:05] <magicianlord> ok dailystruggle
[01:05] <dailystruggle> manage a server
[01:05] <magicianlord> in that case, sorry
[01:05] <histo> dailystruggle: is it a fedora server?
[01:05] <dailystruggle> centos
[01:06] <_EnigmaCJ> is this an english room?
[01:06] <magicianlord> i am only familiar with the client userend of yum
[01:06] <histo> dailystruggle: #centos channel would probably be a great help
[01:06] <pvl1> _EnigmaCJ, yup
[01:06] <dailystruggle> thanks
[01:06] <zvacet> _enig
[01:06] <magicianlord> the only thing i can tell you though, is that yum is very slow on solid state drives, compared to, for example, apt or pacman
[01:06] <_EnigmaCJ> cause i wanted to ask if someone could help me install an xchat theme
[01:06] <magicianlord> fyi
[01:06] <histo> _EnigmaCJ: yes its english room
[01:06] <magicianlord> _EnigmaCJ: from termial: sudo apt-get install xchat
[01:07] <histo> _EnigmaCJ: /j #xchat
[01:07] <magicjoe> can someone help me reinstall my sound card?
[01:07] <histo> magicjoe: what do you mean reinstall?
[01:07] <histo> magicjoe: the drivers are loaded by the kernel
[01:07] <magicjoe> well, it was working....now its not
[01:07] <_EnigmaCJ> Like i wanted to change my xchat theme
[01:07] <pvl1> _EnigmaCJ, y cant u install it
[01:07] <magicjoe> its not recognized any more
[01:07] <pvl1> _EnigmaCJ, do u already have the theme u want
[01:07] <_EnigmaCJ> yep
[01:07] <histo> magicjoe: what do you mean its not recognized anymore? by what application?
[01:08] <magicianlord> magicjoe and i are brothers
[01:08] <pvl1> _EnigmaCJ, i believe u just gotta move it to ~~/.xchat2/ (/home/username/.xchat2
[01:08] <pvl1> * ~/.xchat2/ (/home/username/.xchat2
[01:08] <magicjoe> when i go to system preferences sound
[01:08] <_EnigmaCJ> let me see
[01:08] <magicjoe> the hardware tab
[01:08] <pvl1> _EnigmaCJ, just ~/.xchat2
[01:08] <magicjoe> doesn't show my sound card
[01:08] <magicianlord> im glad that pulseaudio is now working properly in linux
[01:08] <magicianlord> for hte most part
[01:09] <magicianlord> took a few updates, eh
[01:09] <solexious> How can I empty all trash folders from anywhere on my system from the command line?
[01:09] <histo> magicianlord: its still a pita with a lot of stuff.
[01:09] <_EnigmaCJ> pvl1: ok, I'll restart xchat, thanx
[01:09] <pvl1> magicjoe, y do u need it
[01:09] <pvl1> _EnigmaCJ, np
[01:09] <magicianlord> i know, histo
[01:09] <histo> !sound | magicjoe
[01:09] <magicjoe> because i don't get ANY sound
[01:09] <magicjoe> lol
[01:09] <schlaftier> Is there a gstreamer plugin for Youtube videos, i.e. H.264? I haven't been able to figure it out despite some people saying they have got HTML5+Youtube working in Midori and Epiphany?
[01:09] <magicianlord> at least it's close to sound quality in windows now
[01:09] <pvl1> solexious, u cant do all at once, but u can slelect multiple dirs to rm
[01:09] <magicianlord> on my netbook
[01:10] <pvl1> magicianlord, im ont a netbook!
[01:10] <Miraculix_> hi, im running ubuntu 9.10 on a system that only has ubuntu, and grub wont show to allow me to select a kernel to boot, it just boots the latest one or something, how can i make grub wait and let me choose the kernel?
[01:10] <magicianlord> although, i would like to know how to install the latest realtek drivers into the kernel
[01:10] <valentinex> I cannot install google gears it says linux firefox type not supported something like that error :(
[01:10] <histo> schlaftier: are you looking for flash?
[01:10] <pvl1> magicjoe, open a terminal and type alsamixer
[01:10] <solow> Is it a bug that the show desktop doesnt work? :P it throws up some screens, and than goes down.
[01:10] <magicianlord> show desktop should work
[01:10] <solow> hide
[01:10] <solow> sorry
[01:10] <pvl1> Miraculix_, what version of grub
[01:10] <_EnigmaCJ> here i'm back
[01:10] <_EnigmaCJ> well nothing happen
[01:10] <histo> magicianlord: well they are probably loaded as a module not built in the kernel
[01:11] <pvl1> valentinex, sorry google doesnt support linux for googl gears
[01:11] <magicjoe> when i double click the volume control, it just says 100% dummy output
[01:11] <pvl1> _EnigmaCJ, hold on a sec
[01:11] <schlaftier> histo: no, I'm explicitly looking for the non-Flash Youtube (the HTML5 Beta). Flash works but is so resource hungry I'd like to get HTML5 video working
[01:11] <Miraculix_> the one that comes with 9.10, grub2 i suppose cause there's no /boot/grub/menu.lst
[01:11] <solow> It says click here to restore hidden windows. while i have all windows maximized and want them to minimize.
[01:11] <_EnigmaCJ> ok thnx anyway
[01:11] <magicianlord> thanks histo
[01:11] <histo> schlaftier: ahh
[01:11] <pvl1> magicjoe, did u load alsa mixer?
[01:11] <magicjoe> where do i select file, change device?
[01:11] <pvl1> *alsamixer
[01:11] <valentinex> pvl1: but at their site it is written that linux is supported :(
[01:11] <magicianlord> alsamixer owns the WORLD
[01:11] <_EnigmaCJ> I'll be right back
[01:11] <magicianlord> lol
[01:11] <pvl1> valentinex, link me
[01:11] <xangua> schlaftier: have you tried with chromium/chrome¿
[01:12] <magicianlord> i love going through three hunder sliders to set my sound
[01:12] <schlaftier> histo: but apparently there are licensing issues with the codec chosen by Youtube
[01:12] <Typos_King> Miraculix:   increase the timer in /boot/grub/grub.cfg    bear in mind that file gets updated using the template at /etc/defaults/grub
[01:12] <magicianlord> hundred
[01:12] <magicjoe> it says no such file or directory
[01:12] <histo> schlaftier: figures
[01:12] <Miraculix_> Typos_King, yeah it says not to edit that file :D
[01:12] <magicjoe> just 'alsamixer'?
[01:12] <valentinex> pvl1: Gears is available for             Windows,             Windows Mobile,             Mac OS Tiger/Leopard,             Mac OS Snow Leopard,             Linux and             Android.
[01:12] <pvl1> magicjoe, u just typed alsamixer
[01:12] <histo> schlaftier: but they are google so i'm sure it will be somewhat open soon
[01:12] <Miraculix_> i increased the timeout via startup-manager, still no good though
[01:12] <magicianlord> hey
[01:12] <magicjoe> yep
[01:12] <valentinex> pvl1: http://gears.google.com/
[01:12] <Typos_King> Miraculix:   well, I do... so, obviously you can :P
[01:12] <magicianlord> does anyone know how to get open gl working kega fusion 3.63?
[01:12] <schlaftier> xangua: I'd rather not install nor use Chromium
[01:13] <pvl1> magicjoe, type sudo apt-get install alsamixer
[01:13] <magicianlord> what's wrong with chromium?
[01:13] <Roasted> histo, any idea where envy-ng shows up when you download it?
[01:13] <magicianlord> you should support google
[01:13] <Guest94074> hello
[01:13] <xangua> schlaftier: then no html5 youtube for you :(
[01:13] <magicianlord> they are taking a stand against hte chinese oppressive regime
[01:13] <magicianlord> this is an important cause lol
[01:13] <magicjoe> couldn't find package?
[01:13] <schlaftier> xangua: that's a bummer
[01:13] <Typos_King> Miraculix:   but whenever it gets update, once in a blue moon?,  it uses the template and if you make the changes in the template, then whenver that happens it'll be there
[01:13] <_EnigmaCJ> back
[01:13] <pvl1> valentinex, http://code.google.com/apis/gears/gears_faq.html#linuxCompatible
[01:13] <aetaric> Guest94074: please tell me you aren't using irc as root
[01:14] <_EnigmaCJ> i looked up on google
[01:14] <Miraculix_> Typos_King, there;s a lot of "timeout" strings in that file
[01:14] <pvl1> _EnigmaCJ, check ur ~/.xchat2 dir see whats in there. amybe it should be just ~/.xchat
[01:14] <magicianlord> he is lol
[01:14] <histo> Roasted: no mabye applications > system tools   ?
[01:14] <pvl1> magicjoe, hold on a sev
[01:14] <magicjoe> ok
[01:14] <Miraculix_> Typos_King, only 1 of them has the 15 second value i put, the rest are -1, 0 etc
[01:14] <histo> Roasted: I know I saw a gtk frontend for it.
[01:14] <_EnigmaCJ> pvl1 : mine is just xchat
[01:14] <Alxandr> nDuff: TY. I think I've figured it out now.
[01:15] <_EnigmaCJ> not xchat2
[01:15] <Airris> hi again : working on new computer, and new problems!
[01:15] <magicianlord> intel video drivers are integrated into hte kernel, right?
[01:15] <schlaftier> xangua: people report HTML5 Youtube on WebkitGTK browsers though but I don't seem to find the right gstreamer plugin
[01:15] <pvl1> _EnigmaCJ, then move the theme files into that folder
[01:15] <Typos_King> Miraculix:   right....the ones you'd see are in IFs..... sooo  yeah. 15.... that'd be it :)
[01:15] <_EnigmaCJ> I already tryied
[01:15] <_EnigmaCJ> without success
[01:15] <histo> Roasted: envyng-gtk ina a terminal should bring it up
[01:15] <pvl1> is there anything else in that folder?
[01:15] <histo> Roasted: or hitting alt+F2
[01:15] <_EnigmaCJ> it just changes the font colors but it should look like this: wait
[01:16] <_EnigmaCJ> http://t0x.in/images/xcdt-scr01.png
[01:16] <Airris> Things were going ok until I put the Nvidia official drivers it recommended and then uhhh. The screen periodically flashes black for a split second
[01:16] <magicianlord> Airris: did you install nvidia drivers from jockey or pac manager?
[01:16] <magicianlord> jockey is almost useless
[01:16] <Typos_King> Miraculix:   the part where it goes too fast it won't give you a choice is cuz between the poweron and the boot screen, I think grub2 counts that for the timer, so by the time you get there, the10secs which is the default won't give enough time, I changed it to 30
[01:16] <patrick__> does anyone know how to configure compiz so i can command tab to cycle thru open applications? (not windows) as in osx?
[01:17] <pvl1> patrick__, edit the key bindidings in ccsm
[01:17] <Airris> magicianlord: I clicked on that icon near top right of GUI that popped up, is that jockey?
[01:17] <aetaric> patrick__: there is a compiz plugin manager
[01:17] <Typos_King> Miraculix:   unless you have a lightning fast poweron and boot screen period :)
[01:17] <histo> patrick__: hit <windows key> tab
[01:17] <magicianlord> Airris: yes, thats the frontend for it
[01:17] <magicianlord> that doesnt properly install
[01:17] <histo> !ccsm | patrick__
[01:17] <_EnigmaCJ> i'm back
[01:17] <nDuff> magicianlord, the only video drivers included in the kernel proper are framebuffer drivers, which aren't exactly high-performance
[01:17] <ardchoille> My friend wants to know how to get her webcam hooked up so empathy can streamit.
[01:17] <magicianlord> use synaptic package manager to install the nvidia drivers
[01:18] <ardchoille> she has the cam installed and empathy installed
[01:18] <histo> ardchoille: plug it in.
[01:18] <histo> ardchoille: then it should work.
[01:18] <ardchoille> histo: doesn't seem to be doing anything after that
[01:18] <_EnigmaCJ> pvl1: thanks, it didnt work but it is not such important
[01:18] <Airris> magicianlord: hmm, that's odd, but ok, so just do apt-get for the relevant package?
[01:18] <magicianlord> nDuff: so the intel drivers installed by ubuntu are supplmentary, outside the main kernel?
[01:18] <magicianlord> supplementary
[01:18] <_EnigmaCJ> wow I like to talk on english rooms
[01:18] <histo> ardchoille: i've noticed my friends show up with little cam icons next to their name if they are availible for video chat.
[01:19] <patrick__> pvll aetaric histo i have that, I just was wondering which effect does open apps, rather than windows, and i cant seem to assign the keystroke command tab. only command and button 1-9
[01:19] <pvl1> _idk. i think it should work fine
[01:19] <pvl1> ** _EnigmaCJ
[01:19] <ardchoille> histo: she is trying to get her webcamto work in empathy, so far empathy has bo way of connecting to the cam
[01:19] <patrick__> also if scale and expo can be used at the same time
[01:19] <nDuff> magicianlord, X11 (the windowing system) is _entirely_ separate from the kernel
[01:19] <magicianlord> what im asking is
[01:19] <_EnigmaCJ> pvl1, ;)
[01:20] <histo> ardchoille: I've noticed people on google seem to have cams show up on my list
[01:20] <Airris> very stupid question to just double check something : apt-get is a front-end for synaptic?
[01:20] <histo> ardchoille: maybe a yahoo problem?
[01:20] <nDuff> Airris, other way around
[01:20] <ardchoille> histo: Ah, that may be it
[01:20] <magicianlord> Airris: the other way around
[01:21] <Airris> ahhh
[01:21] <Airris> but using either one will work for putting the drivers on *correctly* ?
[01:21] <magicianlord> yes
[01:21] <magicianlord> its just easier in synaptic
[01:21] <aetaric> psh
[01:21] <Miraculix_> Typos_King, no dice even with 30
[01:21] <aetaric> i like apt-get more
[01:21] <magicianlord> i do too
[01:21] <Airris> I've gotten to accustomed to commandline
[01:21] <magicianlord> but for installing drivers
[01:21] <Airris> so much source code compiling
[01:21] <magicianlord> you have to know your poopie
[01:21] <magicianlord> lol
[01:22] <magicianlord> fo real, dawg
[01:22] <meoblast001> hi
[01:22] <magicianlord> i use apt for most things
[01:22] <meoblast001> i setup a new system
[01:22] <patrick__> what are buttons 4-9 in compiz config for bindings?
[01:22] <meoblast001> it says Broadcom B43 drivers installed in the driver manager
[01:22] <magicianlord> except removing old kernals or installing drivers
[01:22] <Airris> yea, maybe i'll use synaptic this time. Ok thanks
[01:22] <patrick__> I know 1-3 are mouse buttons
[01:22] <Airris> if this solves the problem i'll be quite happy
[01:22] <meoblast001> iwconfig shows it works
[01:22] <Typos_King> Miraculix:   can you paste grub.cfg?   to a pastebin that is
[01:22] <magicianlord> meoblast001: it lies to you
[01:22] <Airris> if not... I'll be back in here in 10 minutes :P
[01:22] <pvl1> patrick__, 4 and 5 are scrolling up and down
[01:22] <meoblast001> but no networks show up in the network manager
[01:22] <Airris> hehe
[01:22] <Miraculix_> sure thing Typos_King
[01:22] <magicianlord> meoblast001: you need to install it from synaptic
[01:22] <meoblast001> magicianlord: i did
[01:22] <magicianlord> or command line
[01:22] <_EnigmaCJ> anyone know some cool irc chats?
[01:22] <patrick__> im trying to assign super+tab, but i only am given the option of command / super and buttons 1-9
[01:23] <magicianlord> oh rly
[01:23] <patrick__> pvl1, thanks for that
[01:23] <magicianlord> not workign for you?
[01:23] <meoblast001> magicianlord: then i restarted to check if it worked, and it didn't, so i checked driver manager
[01:23] <aetaric> _EnigmaCJ: #ubuntu-offtopic
[01:23] <magicianlord> yes?
[01:23] <meoblast001> magicianlord: so i ran iwconfig, and it said there was a device
[01:23] <_EnigmaCJ> aetaric, thanks
[01:23] <pvl1> patrick__, which compiz options are u in
[01:23] <magicianlord> oh
[01:23] <ncfi1013_> what is the best and simplest way to burn .avi files to dvd+r dl discs?
[01:23] <magicianlord> well, installing it shoudl work
[01:23] <meoblast001> magicianlord: everything says it works, but it isn't actually detecting our network
[01:23] <magicianlord> you could also install it from the files on broadcom's site
[01:23] <magicianlord> maybe its a network problem?
[01:24] <Roasted> histo, how do I set it so I boot to .11 by default and no other kernels are in the mix? I don't want to pull down kernels during regular updates or anything, and even if I do, I want .11
[01:24] <meoblast001> what's the network utility for browsing wireless networks?
[01:24] <ante> Hmm. I am having random crashes on my ubuntu server and there's nothing in /var/log/messages that reveals anything... Any hints on how to find the problem?
[01:24] <Roasted> meoblast001, network manager
[01:24] <meoblast001> Roasted: the console one
[01:24] <patrick__> pvl1, currently: static application switcher-next window group bindings
[01:24] <Miraculix_> Typos_King, http://pastebin.com/uAXaaxVR
[01:24] <pvl1> patrick__, hime a sec
[01:24] <magicianlord> meoblast001: on gnome, it is "network manager." on xfce, it's "wicd"
[01:24] <meoblast001> ok, i have the gnome one
[01:25] <meoblast001> it shows nothing for wireless networks
[01:25] <patrick__> pvl1, thank a ton!
[01:25] <solidsnack> I've installed a Debian kernel with `dpkg' to get Xen support; now when I try to install things with `aptitude', it comes up with solutions that remove the Xen kernel.
[01:25] <magicianlord> my butt hurts from sitting in this chair
[01:25] <solidsnack> How can I get it to leave this kernel alone?
[01:26] <jophish> I'm having a bit of a problem using inetd. I can start it up in debug mode, and it reports: "registered /usr/bin/helloworld on 5", however when I try to connect to it from my desktop, I get connection refused.
[01:26] <pvl1> patrick__, are u sure u want the group settings?
[01:27] <patrick__> pvl1, although im not sure if im in the correct panel. I want to use alt-tab to cycle thru all windows on current space (currently working) or all spacs (optimal) and command/super tab to switch btw open applications.
[01:27] <patrick__> pvl1, so im not sure, you tell me
[01:27] <magicianlord> Does anyone know why the gnome power manager setting to shutdown when the power is critical does NOT work? is this a bug?
[01:27] <magicianlord> It has never worked in Ubuntu
[01:27] <jophish> hosts.allow has ALL:192.168.0.0/225.225.225.0
[01:27] <Roasted> Does anybody know if Lucid is supposed to have better all around wireless support? I'm curious if there's any documentation on it I could read about, since it seems a few issues have been brought up with Karmic. Curious if any are fixed.
[01:28] <pvl1> patrick__, so u want alt-tab for all windows and super-tab for only open windows?
[01:28] <magicianlord> Roasted: only way to find out for your particular situation is to try it via live usb.
[01:28] <Craig_Dem> Im sure lots of bugs will have been fixed in lucid.
[01:28] <mark_xhtml> hola amigos
[01:28] <magicianlord> i prefer the icon set in karmic
[01:28] <magicianlord> black and white is nice
[01:28] <patrick__> pvl1, no, alt tab for all windows and super tab for all applications
[01:28] <mark_xhtml> hello friend
[01:28] <patrick__> pvl1, is there such a beast?
[01:29] <magicianlord> lol
[01:29] <mark_xhtml> xD
[01:29] <MidComMobile> hey guys
[01:29] <mark_xhtml> what?
[01:29] <magicianlord> hey man
[01:29] <magicianlord> im so happy because
[01:29] <Miraculix_> Typos_King, anything?
[01:29] <mark_xhtml> why?
[01:29] <Roasted> magicianlord, can't. the particular system I'm trying doesn't USB boot - however I tried a liveCD and it seemed VERY buggy, since it would freeze whenever I'd get it fired up. However after 15 tries I managed to try my wireless and Lucid (as of the daily build today) didn't solve the issue.
[01:29] <pvl1> patrick__, im not sure what the difference is. u mean like super tab to open applications?
[01:29] <magicianlord> i bought a pair of $5 koss headphones at walmart
[01:29] <magicianlord> and i thought they would be garbag
[01:29] <magicianlord> but they rock
[01:29] <magicianlord> lol
[01:29] <xangua> !ot | magicianlord
[01:30] <magicianlord> ok xangua, relax
[01:30] <MidComMobile> just installed karmic 9.10 - i made the stupid mistake of using the nvidia drivers in the live environment while i was installing
[01:30] <z449> Anyone grok wireless?  I've got ndiswrapper working (device shows in ndiswrapper -l), iwconfig shows the device (wlan0) and I can apply settings to it, but gnome-network-manager won't let me connect in at all (connect button greyed out)
[01:30] <Typos_King> Miraculix:   http://paste2.org/p/743301
[01:30] <Typos_King> hehe :)
[01:30] <patrick__> pvl1, well, alt tab shows me all open windows, so i can see all windows from all applications, where super tab would switch between apps only. so if an app has multiple windows/panels it will show up as a single icon
[01:30] <xangua> z449: have you installed 'windows xp' drivers thru ndiswrapper¿
[01:30] <patrick__> pvl1, does that make sense?
[01:30] <MidComMobile> so the /etc/X11/xorg.conf expects the nvidia module which isn't there... hence i need to apt-get it.
[01:31] <magicianlord> Would someone make an offiial request to the Lucid developers to use a less fruity usplash animation and less purple?
[01:31] <z449> @xangua yes to installing the windows driver. Found some decent instructions online
[01:31] <magicianlord> Seriously.
[01:31] <pvl1> patrick__, oooh yeah i get u now,  sorry just trying to clear it up
[01:31] <Miraculix_> ah so you mean outside and after all the if/elses?
[01:31] <Typos_King> Miraculix:   sooo, comment out the if/else and instead add your own assignmet
[01:31] <Typos_King> yes
[01:31] <Miraculix_> okeydokey
[01:31] <MidComMobile> the catch is i don't know how to bring up the wireles networking from the command line in ubuntu (i'm on as superuser via sudo -i) and i plugged in a cable, but there is no /dev/eth0 d;
[01:32] <Typos_King> MidComMobile:   http://blog.tplus1.com/index.php/2008/06/13/how-to-connect-to-a-wireless-network-from-the-ubuntu-command-line/
[01:32] <z449> xangua: ndiswrapper -l shows: "bcmwl5 : driver installed \n device (14E4:4319) present (alternate driver: ssb)
[01:32] <Craig_Dem> I think the boot uses Plymouth now instead of usplash. Not sure though.
[01:32] <MidComMobile> Typos_King: :D
[01:33] <magicianlord> Craig_Dem: yes
[01:33] <patrick__> pvl1, dont be sorry for being awesome and trying to help me for free ;-)
[01:33] <melwtech35> when logging in on 9.10 and typing my password, it shows how many characters i have typed in respresented with black circles, how do i makei t so that it doesnt show those black circules
[01:33] <Roasted> So does anybody know if there is a proposed listing of additional wireless support that lucid may bring to the table?
[01:33] <pvl1> patrick__, on the left side when u select like nextwindow and then the keys, theres a mouse and a keyboard icon, correct?
[01:33] <Roasted> Also - if Lucid today march 28th doesnt work with my wireless on my laptop, are there any chances it could work when its finally released?
[01:34] <magicianlord> Roasted: what is your wireless card
[01:34] <Craig_Dem> Nope
[01:34] <Craig_Dem> The freeze will be on.
[01:34] <magicianlord> I had a similar issue.
[01:34] <Roasted> magicianlord, Atheros 2413.
[01:34] <magicianlord> Odd
[01:34] <magicianlord> Ahteros cards are usually supported
[01:34] <magicianlord> Download the driver from their website
[01:34] <Roasted> magicianlord, it works in 8.04.4, 9.04, but not 9.10 or the daily build of 10.04.
[01:34] <magicianlord> Install offline, connect, and reinstall from apt
[01:35] <magicianlord> Or use wire
[01:35] <Roasted> magicianlord, it works out of box... like I can SEE the SSID... but I cant connect to a WPA network - only unsecured networks.
[01:35] <magicianlord> Hmm, I see Roasted
[01:35] <Miraculix_> ok Typos_King lets hope this works, grub.cfg was read only even for root, i hope i changed it for good reason :p
[01:35] <magicianlord> Oh
[01:35] <Roasted> magicianlord, I cant seem to figure it out. Its very frustrating. :(
[01:35] <magicianlord> then that is probably a security module issue
[01:35] <_EnigmaCJ> Bye
[01:35] <Roasted> magicianlord, what would I have to do to fix it?
[01:35] <Typos_King> hehhe
[01:35] <patrick__> pvl1, are we still talking about statci application switcher?
[01:36] <MidComMobile> Typos_King: a) i'll need to use a wpa2 key   b) wlan0: interface does not support scanning, network is down
[01:36] <magicjoe> pvl1???
[01:36] <Miraculix_> godDAMN it didnt work, Typos_King
[01:36] <patrick__> pvl1, static*
[01:36] <magicianlord> I dont know exactly right now to tell you. But when I install the Broadcom drivers, there were instructinos to specify one or the other
[01:36] <magicianlord> installed
[01:36] <Alxandr> Hello again. One last question for tonight. Any god guides as of how to setup virtual servers on my newly installed ubuntu-server?
[01:36] <Miraculix_> >.< im pissed at this grub2 bs :p
[01:36] <MidComMobile> i really should get ubuntu to use my wired just until i am back in X
[01:36] <Alxandr> I added the "Virtual server host" (or something like that) during install.
[01:36] <magicianlord> Miraculix_: how come?
[01:36] <Miraculix_> magicianlord, it wont show me the kernel selection screen, it goes straight into loading the default one
[01:37] <Typos_King> MidComMobile:   tried yet -> sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg; ?
[01:37] <MidComMobile> ...
[01:37]  * MidComMobile headdesk
[01:37] <magicianlord> Miraculix_: yes. did that other suggestion from another person here work?
[01:37] <Miraculix_> nope just tried it
[01:37] <Miraculix_> did not work
[01:37] <magicianlord> i c
[01:37] <MidComMobile> Typos_King: i'm a gentoo dude, i din't even know you could do that
[01:37] <magicianlord> that's a bummer
[01:37] <Typos_King> Miraculix:   what about deleting grub.cfg and try to remake it?    sudo update-grub;
[01:37] <magicianlord> lol
[01:38] <Roasted> magicianlord, so if you were in my shoes, where would you go first?
[01:38] <magicianlord> if he does that, he wont be able to boot
[01:38] <Typos_King> MidComMobile:   no dpkg? :)
[01:38] <patrick__> pvl1, AH! ok i get how to bind the keys now, but which one is the efect im looking for?
[01:38] <magicianlord> to the liquor store
[01:38] <melwtech35> when logging in on 9.10 and typing my password, it shows how many characters i have typed in respresented with black circles, how do i makei t so that it doesnt show those black circules
[01:38] <magicianlord> lol jk
[01:38] <pvl1> patrick__, tbh idk. but i thnik group is per application
[01:38] <MidComMobile> Typos_King: gentoo doesn't, no, we write our own config files ;-)
[01:39] <magicianlord> Roasted: i'd contiue researched grub2
[01:39] <magicianlord> researching
[01:39] <demarco> wrestlemania?
[01:39] <Roasted> magicianlord, what relevance does grub2 have to my wireless issue?
[01:39] <MidComMobile> i just tried the command you suggsted, and it works but doesn't change things. i'll just upgraade ubuntu, thanks
[01:39] <magicianlord> lol
[01:39] <magicianlord> oh sorry man
[01:39] <Roasted> wrong tag? :P
[01:39] <magicianlord> yes
[01:39] <xangua> melwtech35: would you like that showed your pasword instead¿¿
[01:40] <demarco> #ubuntustudio
[01:40] <magicianlord> i would install the drivers from the manufacturer
[01:40] <melwtech35> xangua, i would prefer it shows nothing. not even that im typing
[01:40] <Miraculix_> ffs, its like grub doesnt WANT me to choose my own goddamn kernel
[01:40] <ncfi1013_> what is the best and simplest way to burn .avi files to dvd+r double layer discs?
[01:40] <magicianlord> Miraculix_: it knows better, that's why
[01:40] <Miraculix_> update-grub didnt change anything
[01:40] <Alxandr> Found it...
[01:40] <magicianlord> hmm
[01:40] <patrick__> pvl1, okay, group is it. But how can I get it to pull all apps, not just the ones on the current panel?
[01:41] <PeterT> no.
[01:41] <pvl1> patrick__, sec
[01:41] <magicianlord> Does anyone know why Canonical doesn't abolish the awful KDE fork and replace it with Openbox?
[01:41] <PeterT> no.
[01:41] <magicianlord> lol
[01:41] <magicianlord> Seriously man
[01:41] <PeterT> jk
[01:42] <magicianlord> We've got all the good ideas right here
[01:42] <patrick__> magicianlord, you can go ask in #kubuntu
[01:42] <patrick__> ;-)
[01:42] <magicianlord> ok patrick
[01:42] <Roasted> magicianlord, I heard a lot of talk about ath5k... the newer madwifi driver. Know anything about it?
[01:42] <magicianlord> I'd be very popular there
[01:42] <melwtech35> when logging in on 9.10 and typing my password, it shows how many characters i have typed in represented with black circles, how do i make it so that it doesnt show those black circles, i.e i dont want people seeing how many characters im entering
[01:42] <magicianlord> lol
[01:42] <Miraculix_> so, anyone else have any ides on how to get grub2 to show me a kernel selection screen?
[01:42] <magicianlord> Roasted: nope. not without further research
[01:43] <magicianlord> replace it with grub 1?
[01:43] <magicianlord> or lilo
[01:43] <patrick__> magicianlord, I tried to love it, cause its so beautiful-KDE. but i just dont get it. too strange, i dont like all the KDE apps
[01:44] <luciano_> 091080
[01:44] <magicianlord> its very disorganized and bloated and inefficient
[01:44] <pvl1> patrick__, i think it does it from all viewoirts already if thats what u mean
[01:44] <magicianlord> i don understand why it has support
[01:45] <hmw> what is a good tutorial-like web page, explaining how to optimize for a netbook? (low ram + ssd lifetime)
[01:45] <sobczyk> hi is there a way to add patch to alsa drivers module? I have sound but chopped off high and low tones, and it seems my codec is added to 2.6.34 (realtek alc665)
[01:45] <magicianlord> hmw
[01:45] <magicianlord> i use linux primary on netbooks
[01:45] <pvl1> magicianlord, same
[01:46] <patrick__> pvl1, it does not- only for current workspace
[01:46] <magicianlord> you mainly want to edit fstab to use relatime or noatime, do not use a swap file, and a couple tweaks to apps like firefox
[01:47] <hmw> what should i be looking after, magicianlord pvl1, or what to remove? 500MB RAM wanna save on active processes, too
[01:47] <patrick__> pvl1, in shift switcher at least-
[01:47] <pvl1> patrick__, yeah i have no idea. ur on ur own =P google around
[01:47] <magicianlord> low ram?
[01:47] <magicianlord> disable bluetooth, visual assistance, logging
[01:47] <magicianlord> update notifier
[01:48] <pvl1> or use xfce
[01:48] <magicianlord> you can get ubuntu to run at 100mb base
[01:48] <magicianlord> or 65mb with arch
[01:48] <pvl1> wow
[01:48] <magicianlord> i found that xfce isnt really all that much faster
[01:48] <magicianlord> it seems like it would be, but its neglible
[01:48] <hmw> I disabled bluetooth in the services window, guess that's enough? i did disable the rest... cron does call some motd-updater, gotta look there too
[01:48] <randomuser200> hey I have a DYNEX wireless dongle, is there a way to have it be an AP for wireless access?
[01:49] <sandra_> anyone know wehther gnome do runs in xfce?
[01:49] <pnp0> I migrated my ubuntu installation to a larger hard disk. The filesystem UUID and root name changed as a result. Whenever a new kernel update is installed, the grub.conf file is written using the old UUID and root device name.  How can I fix this?
[01:49] <pvl1> magicianlord, well what is fasterthen
[01:49] <un214> pnp0: that's when a rewrote every config file removing hte UUID
[01:49] <pvl1> randomuser200, if u can run it in master mode yeah
[01:49] <hmw> what will happen, if my computer with 500MB RAM runs without swap? what would i have to expect?
[01:50] <pvl1> pnp0, which grub, 1 or 2
[01:50] <magicianlord> hww: in startup apps, disable bluetooth, check for new drivers, print queue applet, update notifier, use folders update, and visual assistance (in karmic)
[01:50] <melwtech35> when logging in on 9.10 and typing my password, it shows how many characters i have typed in represented with black circles, how do i make it so that it doesnt show those black circles, i.e i dont want people seeing how many characters im entering
[01:50] <pnp0> pvl1: grub 1 on ubuntu 9.10
[01:50] <hp_> hi
[01:50] <hmw> magicianlord: thanks... i turn these off on my desktops, too LOL
[01:50] <randomuser200> pvl1: how would i do that in ubuntu 9.10?
[01:50] <magicianlord> hp_: wutup money?
[01:50] <patrick__> pvl1, lol thanks anyways! you got me 99% of the way there
[01:50] <rdz11> Hi, what is the name of the command that is executed when you press ALT + F2 on the keyboard?
[01:51] <pvl1> pnp0, run grub-configure or something like that
[01:51] <magicianlord> haha hmw
[01:51] <hmw> magicianlord: how well will ubunut run in half a meg without swap?
[01:51] <hp_> i need to compress avi file to fit on a dvd de or something like that does anyone know
[01:51] <pvl1> randomuser200, tbh i have no idea. theres an ubuntu guide at the ubuntu wiki for it, i reember seeing it
[01:51] <pvl1> patrick__, np
[01:51] <magicianlord> it runs very well with 512mb with no swap on my dell mini 9
[01:51] <pvl1> hp_, vlc

[01:53] <hmw> magicianlord: alright, need to look up the fstab stuff you mentioned... will be testing it soon... how should I verify, that "nothing" is writing to the disk? (logs, etc)
[01:53] <pvl1> sandra_, depends on how much ubuntu
[01:53] <Aquina> Never heard about that, magicanlord but I guess it isn't something reasonable.
[01:53] <sandra_> pvl1, iz it xoobuntoo?

[01:56] <rixxy> histo:thanks!
[01:56] <xangua> sandra_: in xubuntu you will need to install mono (and maybe gnome) dependencies
[01:56] <hmw> magicianlord: Because Windows is for capitalists running DOS.
[01:56] <magicianlord> i used it with 1gb also, no difference in performance
[01:56] <histo> rixxy: how are you making the scores?
[01:57] <rdz11> Hi, what is the name of the command that is executed when you press ALT + F2 on the keyboard?
[01:57] <timyeung> where do the notes get stored from tomboy notes? I know its a hidden file in the home folder right?
[01:57] <rixxy> histo: what do you mean?

[01:59] <casemods> Hello. I have 2 iso's of ubuntu - both are the desktop and not "alternative" - one is AMD, and one is intel (i386). I currently have the intel version installed on my dads intel machine and would like to install the AMD version on my machine (again). what is the first step to installing inside windows?
[01:59] <un214> how abou the slack space of /bin/sh
[01:59] <randomuser200> how do i check what drivers im useing for this DYNEX DX-WPGUSB dongle?
[01:59] <rdz11> coz_: no, after I upgraded to 10.04 ALT +F2 is not working, and I'm trying to add a launcher to one of the panels with that command
[01:59] <histo> timyeung: yeah if you open your ~ in gnome and hit ctrl+h it will show hidden files probably .tomboy folder
[01:59] <Flannel> casemods: Boot windows, insert the disk, run wubi (should autorun when you doubleclik the CD)
[01:59] <coz_> rdz11,  ah I see
[01:59] <DasEi> timyeung: I don't use tomboy, but if you press ctrl-h in nautilus, can see hiiden files as well
[01:59] <rixxy> histo: I am installing now
[01:59] <randomuser200> kgs: ho hai
[01:59] <casemods> Flannel: do I need to install on CD or will DVD work?
[02:00] <coz_> rdz11,  is an upgrade called for on your installaton instead of a clean install?
[02:00] <iceroot> rdz11: /join #ubuntu+1 fpr 10.04 support
[02:00] <randomuser200> kgs: is there a way to check what drivers i am useing for my DYNEX DX-WGPUSB dongle?
[02:00] <magicianlord> casemods: why dont you boot the cd prior to loading windows? hit escape or something else to boot from dvd
[02:00] <magicianlord> or cd
[02:00] <Flannel> casemods: The DVD might work, yeah.
[02:00] <timyeung> DasEi, histo yeah i know about ctrl-h but .tomboy isn't it. I guess i'll just poke around until i find it
[02:00] <coz_> rdz11,  generally upgrading from release to beta  is not a good idea
[02:00] <bsmith093>  help please when i click the username in the gnome panel there are a bunch of other usernames in the dropdown list as well
[02:01] <snxs> i have conky to display my upload and download stats of con eth0 ,  is it normal to constantly be uploading ?? even when im not doing nothing ?
[02:01] <bsmith093> any suggestions
[02:01] <coz_> bsmith093,  like which names?
[02:01] <casemods> magicianlord: the DVD doesn't seem to be able to boot for some reason.
[02:01] <magicianlord> oh ok
[02:01] <Flannel> timyeung: check ~/.local/share/tomboy
[02:01] <sobczyk> what is the kernel source package name
[02:01] <DasEi> casemods: I won't recommend wubi, if you can't (want) install 'nativ , I suggest use sth. like virtualbox
[02:01] <bsmith093> coz_ nobody backup man proxy root sys
[02:02] <bsmith093> and some others
[02:02] <Flannel> DasEi: There's absolutely no reason to use Virtualbox over wubi
[02:02] <timyeung> Flannel, thank you very much
[02:02] <casemods> DasEi: I already had ubuntu replace windows, but the internet stopped working - I was unable to access the modem via 198.x.x.x - I need to have windows as a backup this time in case something like that happens again
[02:02] <DasEi> Flannel: defrag ? recovering / repair ? support ?
[02:03] <Flannel> DasEi: Wubi is supported
[02:03] <rdz11> coz_: it was an upgrade, from 9.10 to 10.04 (on a Dell machine), I followed the instructions to upgrade to the beta version. There are other things that doesn't seem to be working, like the media hotkeys on my laptop, but that's another issue.
[02:03] <bsmith093> i think i accidentally enabled some user swithching
[02:03] <bsmith093> or something help please
[02:03] <DasEi> Flannel: I'll come on this ot at  some time, k for now :)
[02:04] <coz_> rdz11,  that doesn surprise me  ...upgrading is sometimes touchy   that's why i asked if it was necesasry  to upgrade instead of just a clean install
[02:04] <pvl1> pnp0, u gotta reconfig grub. im lookin for a guide
[02:05] <pvl1> pnp0, try sudo /sbin/grub-install /dev/hda
[02:05] <pvl1> pnp0, adapt to ur needs
[02:05] <pnp0> pvl1: Thanks. Will give it a try.
[02:05] <coz_> rdz11,  if possible...I would back up anything you want to keep,,,download the live cd for Lucid  then clean install  but I would take this up in the #ubuntu+1 channel for Lucid
[02:06] <magicianlord> I'd recommend not upgrading to Lucid right now, until final release.
[02:06] <magicianlord> I know it's tempting.
[02:06] <rdz11> coz_: :) ok, no it was not necessary, I always do them though... I like the new look and feel of it, and like the window min, max buttons to the left too ;)
[02:06] <un214> it was really stable in the alphas but got worse in the betas
[02:06] <magicianlord> At this point, 9.10 is still most stable an quick for me.
[02:07] <magicianlord> un214: yea?
[02:07] <coz_> rdz11,  understood..but you would be much happier with all of that with a clean install :)
[02:07] <un214> when they tried to bring the nouveau driver through by default
[02:07] <un214> my system ran better with the vesa driver which is somehow now broke
[02:08] <coz_> also buttons on the left are great for left handed people only or mac users :)
[02:08] <arand> !lucid
[02:08] <snake_> i've figured out how to make the terminal use the colors showed in the terminal profile preferences, but i want the $ps1 to be red when i do sudo -s.. anyone know how to do that?
[02:08] <Guest20651> how do i figure out if my laptop is x64 or x86
[02:09] <un214> snake_ you put escape codes into it
[02:09] <magicianlord> Guest20651: processor type
[02:09] <un214> guest2065: uname -r
[02:09] <SmartSsa> Anybody know how to make gnome-terminal always open up at a different size other than default (80x24)
[02:09] <magicianlord> and type uname -a
[02:09] <un214> oops -a
[02:09] <blakkheim> it's uname -r
[02:09] <blakkheim> :/
[02:09] <blakkheim> no that's the kernel my bad
[02:09] <psusi> snake_, the root@foo isnt enough? ;)
[02:09] <blakkheim> Guest20651: uname -m
[02:10] <Guest20651> $andrew -a         command not found
[02:10] <rdz11> coz_: I guess so :) ... thanks for your support, I have other questions that I will be throwing here during the night ;)
[02:10] <snake_> SmartSsa, ooh, go to your regular terminal and type "gnome-terminal --help"
[02:10] <snake_> and it should be in there
[02:10] <coz_> rdz11, cool :)
[02:10] <blakkheim> Guest20651: type "uname -m"
[02:10] <snake_> then just add it to your launcher
[02:11] <frederific> I'm on 9.10 The system monitor on my panel reports over 50% RAM usage, and my machine is very slow. System Monitor and top both show no process using very much RAM. Any ideas?
[02:11] <look> is there a linux native to this? http://www.nat32.com/nat32e/htm/softap.htm
[02:11] <snake_> psusi, well on gentoo it is a red color that looks cooler when its in root...
[02:11] <Guest20651> nevermind
[02:12] <nDuff> look, HostAP mode was available on Linux long before it was available for Windows
[02:12] <psusi> snake_, look at their /etc/profile and see what they do
[02:12] <Guest20651> i686, does that mean x64?
[02:12] <look> nDuff: can i apt-get or is there a .deb package i can download?
[02:12] <SmartSsa> snake_: I was looking for a more permanent solution, something in gconf or other.
[02:12] <nDuff> look, not sure, I wasn't using Ubuntu last time I needed it.
[02:12] <look> ...
[02:13] <magicianlord> lol
[02:13] <nDuff> look, ...so I'd have to google, same as you can do. Knowing it's called "HostAP" not "SoftAP" here should help.
[02:13] <magicianlord> look: what do you need?
[02:14] <look> magicianlord: i have a DYNEX DX-WPGUSB dongle and want to use is as an AP for wireless
[02:14] <snake_> SmartSsa, yes just go add it to your launcher if you have one, if you don't have a terminal launcher in the panel or otherwise on your desktop, make one, and then add it to that..
[02:14] <nDuff> look, also, look into wpa_supplicant
[02:14] <magicianlord> look: Sorry, cannot help you with that.
[02:14] <nDuff> look, ...no idea if that particular hardware is supported, though.
[02:14] <magicianlord> look: i have a Dynex lcd tv.
[02:14] <look> nDuff: thanx anyway
[02:15] <nDuff> look, ...there's a supported driver list at http://hostap.epitest.fi/
[02:15] <denis123> Hi, two days ago my Ubuntu (9.10) just crashed after installing updates (via update manager). I use xorg-edgers ATI drivers and thus use a newer kernel (2.6.32 i think it is). I was working fine, installed update. Restarted, and now it starts loading them screen goes blank and black. Could someone help me fix this? Thanks!
[02:16] <magicianlord> Wow.
[02:16] <coz_> out of curiosity...even after several clean installs the  chess game in gnome is not smooth  rather jerky...can someone test on their system?
[02:16] <SmartSsa> snake_: meh, i read that forum page too.  I don't use launchers and I'm sick of typing --geometry 130x26 every time i open a terminal :)
[02:16] <xangua> denis123: use stable packages
[02:16] <blakkheim> denis123: don't buy from ati, enemy of your freedom
[02:16] <preposteruss> coz_, chess works fine on my netbook
[02:17] <denis123> xangua: that was my first choice. but that was the only way for me to get compiz to work
[02:17] <coz_> preposteruss,  ok thanks
[02:17] <snake_> SmartSsa, well then make a new launcher and make the command "gnome-terminal --geometry 130x26"
[02:17] <xangua> denis123: in the xorg edger PPA they mention another PPA with more stable packages, try that then
[02:18] <snake_> SmartSsa, got to go, good luck....
[02:18] <denis123> xangua: how? I can't enter ubuntu... It starts to load and then goes blank and I can't do anything
[02:18] <magicianlord> denis123: repair it
[02:19] <denis123> magicianlord: how?
[02:19] <magicianlord> using live usb or cd
[02:19] <denis123> so what do I do? Is there an option to reapair?
[02:19] <magicianlord> i would edit xorg.conf to use default vesa video drivers
[02:19] <magicianlord> then once you get into desktop, remove ati drivers or whatever
[02:20] <magicianlord> there should be an option
[02:20] <magicianlord> i havent done it in a while
[02:20] <magicianlord> Can someone else chime in please also
[02:21] <denis123> ok. thanks. I'll reboot with livecd and have a look. Just what do I do to make it use default vesa video drivers?
[02:21] <xangua> denis123: if you have compiz activated disable it
[02:21] <RedXIII> histo: The defragmentation worked. Thanks for the help :)
[02:22] <cain22> what it is
[02:22] <Gummi> denis123, in grub (before you enter ubuntu when you boot up your computer) pick command line or what ever it is called. or use live cd... find /etc/X11/xorg.conf and change driver to vesa, you will ned to google how to
[02:22] <zagabar_> I see with vnstat that my server constantly sends ~200 mb per hour. I have no idea why. Can I somehow find it out?
[02:23] <denis123> kk. but is it likely that it is the drivers that have caused this? Or some other update via update manager?
[02:23] <gasull> Hi.
[02:23] <magicianlord> Gummi: that's what I was talking about, thanks
[02:23] <aetaric> zagabar_: just being connected makes you send data, but that is a sizable amount. i'd try wireshark.
[02:23] <gottto> zagabar_: the good folk in #ubuntu-server would have the best answer for that
[02:24] <user42> Hello?
[02:24] <user42> Oh, thank gosh.
[02:24] <gasull> I've edited /etc/mailcap several times, but every time my edits seem to be gone after a while (Software updates?).  How can I prevent this?  Thanks
[02:24] <user42> I need some graphics assistance for Karmic Koala installed via wubi, can anyone help?
[02:24] <Gummi> denis123, I dont know. you might be able to log in with the older kernel if there was a kernel update and your ati drivers arent......... just... try anything.
[02:24] <furythor> Which would be better combination, AMD CPU and Radeon graphics or Intel and Nvidia ?
[02:25] <billy189589566> hey everyone earlier irc kept saying connection reset by peers any ideas onwhy this was happening
[02:25] <denis123> ok will do. I'll try that. I think i still have 2.31 kernel. Otherwise I'll try edit grub. Thanks Gummi and magicianlord
[02:26] <richthegeek> the board message is incorrect!
[02:26] <aetaric> furythor: i use intel nd nvidia
[02:26] <richthegeek> ohwait nvm
[02:26] <richthegeek> anyway
[02:26] <joombaga> furythor: right now I would go intel ati
[02:26] <richthegeek> Does anyone know how to put a panel on screen 1?
[02:27] <cain22> anyone know how to get different work stations on unr?
[02:28] <magicianlord> gotta go
[02:28] <magicianlord> peace otu
[02:28] <magicianlord> out
[02:28] <xangua> richthegeek: just create a new one and brab it with the cursor while pressing Alt key
[02:29] <richthegeek> xangua: god I feel retarded... had been trying to force using gconftool-2 and killing gnome-panel
[02:29] <histo> have a device question. Trying to get webcamstudio working and its looking for my cam at /dev/video/0 which doesn't exist
[02:29] <billy189589566> earlier irc kept saying connection reset by peers any ideas onwhy this was happening
[02:30] <stuporglue> Anyone know of software to convert .dv to DVD ISO? I don't need editing abilities.
[02:30] <histo> sry /dev/video0
[02:30] <histo> which is there but doesn't appear right
[02:31] <emes> any suggestions for an 802.11n pci card with solid support (and available in the US)?
[02:31] <furythor> well I did get one computer with Intel CPU Nvidia graphics and something kept crashing ubuntu 9.10 install to 80% (configuring apt) and got no idea what was causing it. Moterboard was Asus P7P55D-E and graphics was ENGTX260. Mobo supports USB3 and SATAII but don't think that those were issue except it did not recognize mobile broadband connection stick.
[02:32] <joombaga> furythor: karmic is out now, try that
[02:32] <furythor> any idea what could caused that crashing of install program ?
[02:32] <furythor> you mean 10.04 ?
[02:33] <joombaga> yeah
[02:33] <xangua> !lucid | furythor joombaga
[02:33] <furythor> gotta try it, yeah
[02:33] <coz_> 10.04 is not released yet
[02:33] <furythor> well I did get that issue with 9.10 and more weird (not even installable with 9.04) so
[02:33] <Trek> furythor: don't discuss 10.04 here
[02:34] <patonono> is there any problem with ati 5750 on ubuntu 9.10?
[02:34] <Berzerker> furythor: karmic is 9.10
[02:34] <blakkheim> patonono: yes
[02:34] <Berzerker> furythor: Lucid Lynx (unreleased) is 10.04
[02:35] <furythor> any information for release date of 10.04 ?
[02:35] <patonono> blakkheim will it be fixed on 10.04?
[02:35] <blakkheim> furythor: april 29
[02:35] <blakkheim> patonono: no
[02:35] <patonono> why?
[02:35] <blakkheim> patonono: because the problem isn't with ubuntu, it's with ati
[02:36] <furythor> I want to see if that makes ubuntu more useful for that computer that I assembled ...
[02:36] <patonono> it always is the others fault...
[02:37] <billy189589566> is there anything cool i can do on karmic that i cant do on windows (bored trying to find new features)
[02:37] <blakkheim> !ot | billy189589566
[02:38] <billy189589566> !ot | blakkheim
[02:38] <billy189589566> thankyou :)

[02:41] <sharinnegan1> hi everybody
[02:43] <furythor> gonna try 10.04 beta :D
[02:43] <britters> hello, I install ubuntu on my dell inspiron to try and get more life out of it, and I bought a wireless adapter from fry's (like bestbuy) but for some reason its not being recognized at all.   I'm not sure what driver I should use, it's showing up in lsusb as Dlink systems
[02:43] <sharinnegan1> I can't use remote desktop viewer , I have a message like : the connexion has been closed, when I try to use it with VNC
[02:44] <sharinnegan1> any ideas ?
[02:44] <billy189589566> britters, for the internet?
[02:44] <britters> billy189589566, correct
[02:44] <^Delta^> sharinnegan1: There should be a linux driver available on the Dlink website, did you try that?
[02:44] <radhios> do you have any kind of firewall?
[02:45] <bluebaron> Hi I really need help with my Karmic Koala installation. These bothersome white pixels are appearing randomly in a line down my screen. Ubuntu was installed today via the newest version of wubi.
[02:45] <billy189589566> britters, plug it in you should get an icon appear on your desktop i assume your using 9.10
[02:45] <britters> billy189589566, no 10.04
[02:45] <blakkheim> !lucid | britters
[02:46] <bluebaron> Can no one even attempt to say they don't have any help for me?
[02:46] <sharinnegan1> ^Delta^: you missed your message, I have a problem with VNC :p
[02:46] <bluebaron> I'm using a stable version...
[02:46] <ka0tic> when i plug in a usb drive, ubuntu freezes up completely, what is wrongh?
[02:46] <billy189589566> britters, ah i t should work anyway plug it in you should get an icon appear on screen right click it and select eject
[02:46] <britters> billy189589566, even though it is scheduled for release, i use gentoo normally but didnt want to go through the hassle with this machine.  How would i figure out the proper driver
[02:47] <billy189589566> then go to network connections configure it and your good to go
[02:47] <xangua> bluebaron: details, 'doen's work' doesn't help  :S
[02:47] <xangua> !details
[02:47] <bluebaron> I don't recall saying 'doen's work'...?
[02:47] <bluebaron> Hi I really need help with my Karmic Koala installation. These bothersome white pixels are appearing randomly in a line down my screen. Ubuntu was installed today via the newest version of wubi.
[02:47] <bluebaron> I said that, good fellow.
[02:47] <britters> billy189589566, no dice. its not showing up there.
[02:47] <blakkheim> bluebaron: no need to keep repeating your question
[02:47] <billy189589566> britters, if you got it from frys it probably came with windows software on a disk install wine and use it that way
[02:48] <blakkheim> billy189589566: that will not work, please don't suggest that
[02:48] <bluebaron> xangua was under the impression I had forgotten the details of my query.
[02:48] <sudo-su> help, how install gwibber of lucid in karmic?
[02:48] <britters> blakkheim, dont worry i hate ndis
[02:48] <mickster14> bluebaron: sounds like a dodgy screen, an if no one can help no on will respond
[02:48] <sudo-su> the new version
[02:48] <billy189589566> blakkheim, why not??
[02:48] <ka0tic> bluebaron: most likely a gfx ram is unstable
[02:48] <britters> billy189589566, not open software.
[02:48] <billy189589566> blakkheim, not challenging you jw lol
[02:48] <Alcor> sharinnegan1  not all dlink ethernet cards can be used by ubunto .  I have a cabled ethernet card.  I called dlink and they gave me the 530T
[02:48] <sudo-su> help, how install gwibber of lucid in karmic?
[02:48] <sudo-su> the new version
[02:48] <sharinnegan1> Do I have to configure VNC on the remote server machine to use it ?
[02:48] <bluebaron> ka0tic: any way to solve this?
[02:48] <xangua> sudo-su: try with the 'gwibber daily PPA' ; it doesn't worked to me
[02:49] <ka0tic> bluebaron: a new video card :(
[02:49] <bluebaron> But this doesn't occur with Windows...
[02:49] <sudo-su> xangua: thank
[02:49] <sharinnegan1> Alcor: I don't have problem with Dlink xD you missed too
[02:49] <sudo-su> but where i can see this ppa
[02:49] <sudo-su> ?
[02:49] <sharinnegan1> I would like to see a remote desktop
[02:49] <bluebaron> ka0tic, this problem does not appear in Windows Vista.
[02:49] <Alcor> to use with linux.  The linux driver is on the CD, But ubunto found it first.
[02:50] <navetz> hey i need some help getting my wireless working, i broke some configs during an upgrade
[02:50] <ka0tic> bluebaron: it could be two things, windows uses different memory addresses, so on windows it would look good, but on linux it is bad.. i know i have seen this happen before.... or your driver is bad
[02:50] <britters> billy189589566, any other ideas?
[02:50] <xangua> sudo-su: https://launchpad.net/~gwibber-daily/+archive/ppa
[02:50] <billy189589566> britters, sorry cant help you lol??? ill keep thinking
[02:51] <bluebaron> ka0tic: I try to be a good user; I updated ubuntu as soon as I got it installed. How would I go about updating the driver?
[02:51] <sudo-su> xangua: thank and sorry :D
[02:51] <bluebaron> ka0tic: For my graphics card, that is.
[02:51] <ka0tic> bluebaron: goto your video cards website and get it
[02:51] <bluebaron> Will they have support for linux?
[02:51] <ka0tic> bluebaron: if that does not work, then your video cards ram is shot
[02:52] <denis123> Hi,
[02:53] <bluebaron> How can I determine which version of Linux, x86 or x86_64, I have?
[02:53] <denis123> I tried the older kernel, but it didn't fix my problem (of blank screen after boot after updating - whilst using xorg-edgers drivers). How can i load using vesa driver via live CD
[02:53] <britters> billy189589566, it seems like a rebranded lower tier 11g card, but on windows it shows up as 11n adapter.   regardless the first 4 digits of its ID are DLink cards, but it didnt match any of the second 4
[02:53] <billy189589566> has anyone got any idea why when i try to log into karmic it says graphic settings not found going into low graphics is there any way to fix this??
[02:53] <bluebaron> Do you have a diagnostics command here?
[02:53] <jrib> bluebaron: uname -m
[02:54] <billy189589566> britters, im really not sure lol im new to karmic myself i just know a little about wireless card because mine was messing about at first
[02:55] <britters> billy189589566, well i guess being on lucid doesn't help.  I know that card works I tested it on Win7 but I guess for now I could just use the garbage that is Ndiswrapper
[02:55] <billy189589566> has anyone got any idea why when i try to log into karmic it says graphic settings not found going into low graphics is there any way to fix this????
[02:55] <terinjokes> does Ubuntu 9.10 x86 support Apple Partition Map?
[02:55] <terinjokes> i'm trying to recover data from an HDD
[02:56] <billy189589566> britters, like blakkheim said lucid hasn't been released yet
[02:56] <paradoxuncreated> http://www.paradoxuncreated.com/articles/Millennium/Millennium.html
[02:56] <blakkheim> terinjokes: what do you mean apple partition map?
[02:56] <britters> billy189589566, I know im just saying that it shouldnt be much harder to figure out what type of driver i need for it.
[02:57] <terinjokes> blakkheim: APM was a partition type used on PowerPC Macs (similar to MBR and GUID)
[02:57] <bluebaron> uname -m
[02:57] <blakkheim> terinjokes: oh ok, i thought you meant GPT
[02:57] <bluebaron> Oh wait was that for the terminal?
[02:57] <blakkheim> bluebaron: yes
[02:57] <billy189589566> britters, yeah lol
[02:57] <sharinnegan1> good nite all
[02:57] <bluebaron> Excuse me.
[02:58] <terinjokes> blakkheim: any ideas if i can read disks in this type?
[02:58] <bluebaron> How would I discover my graphics card name?
[02:58] <bluebaron> Series included?
[02:58]  * microlith boggles at network manager's behavior in virtualbox
[02:58] <iamnotaloser> You can use the lspci command
[02:58] <blakkheim> terinjokes: if it's not the same thing as GPT (which ubuntu can read just fine) then i am not sure
[02:58] <iamnotaloser> and grep it
[02:58] <terinjokes> it's not
[02:58] <bluebaron> grep?
[02:58] <iamnotaloser> lspci | grep "VGA"
[02:59] <billy189589566> blakkheim,  how do you make this sign  |
[02:59] <blakkheim> billy189589566: you mean a pipe? |
[02:59] <billy189589566> yeah
[02:59] <iamnotaloser> depends on your keyboard setup :P
[02:59] <blakkheim> billy189589566: shift and the \ key for my US keyboard
[02:59] <billy189589566> its normal english one
[02:59] <iamnotaloser> Shift + the key under backspace
[03:00] <terinjokes> blakkheim: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_Partition_Map
[03:00] <blakkheim> terinjokes: thanks i will read up on that
[03:00] <speedbaron> or use the ASCII code 124
[03:00] <iamnotaloser> its so nerdy to be writing this... on a console :P
[03:00] <billy189589566> iamnotaloser, dosnt work i can see it its in the top left corner under esc but theres 3 symbols on it i can only work out how to use ¬ `
[03:01] <mickster04> iamnotaloser: i use irc thru a console:D
[03:01] <bluebaron> Also, previously, I had installed linux mint gloria via wubi. Although I uninstalled it via the included uninstaller, the BIOS still gives me the option to boot it. How would I fix this?
[03:02] <blakkheim> bluebaron: this is not a mint support channel
[03:02] <bluebaron> But this is a catholic problem..
[03:02] <blakkheim> bluebaron: it's mint + wubi related, not ubuntu related
[03:02] <unop> !coc | bluebaron
[03:03] <iamnotaloser> LOL!
[03:03] <bluebaron> Oh, pardon my behavior.
[03:03] <iamnotaloser> So i guess im not the only one haha
[03:03] <bluebaron> Off the top of your head, do you happen to know any channels in which I could inquire about that issue?
[03:03] <denis123> After upgrading (via update manager) on ubuntu it now fails by going to a blank black screen right after loading. I'm using xorg-edgers and a newer kernel (2.6.32) so that might be the problem? How could I fix this?\
[03:03] <terinjokes> blakkheim: i bet it does, since it would be part of the kernel, but i doubt ubuntu has that enabled when it compiled
[03:03] <blakkheim> !mint | bluebaron
[03:04] <hendra> halo
[03:04] <blakkheim> terinjokes: it's worth a try
[03:04] <billy189589566> i got it i gotta press alt gr |
[03:04] <terinjokes> blakkheim: it is, but since this is the Live CD...
[03:04] <bluebaron> Mint was quite a shoddy ubuntu derivative, indeed.
[03:04] <bluebaron> Imho.
[03:05] <terinjokes> but no #! support?
[03:05] <bluebaron> !mintsupport
[03:05] <terinjokes> blakkheim: Ubuntu was quite a shoddy debian derivative, indeed.
[03:05] <blakkheim> terinjokes: lol
[03:06] <terinjokes> ^^^ Fixed it for you
[03:06] <bluebaron> I'm the one who said it, not blakkheim.
[03:06] <bluebaron> But that was funny.
[03:06] <terinjokes> woops... bad tab completer
[03:07] <iamnotaloser> the gnome channel is kind of dead
[03:07] <iamnotaloser> i need to ask sum questions
[03:07] <iamnotaloser> lolz
[03:07] <bluebaron> It's alright, good fellow.
[03:07] <terinjokes> seems the PowerPC version of Ubuntu has APM support (nah, really?)
[03:08] <denis123> After upgrading (via update manager) on ubuntu it now fails by going to a blank black screen right after loading. I'm using xorg-edgers and a newer kernel (2.6.32) so that might be the problem? How could I fix this?\
[03:09] <toogreen> @denis123 what video card/chipset have u got?
[03:10] <Trek> anyone ever get a random I/O error while their system is running?
[03:10] <Tamnakz1> Can anyone help with an error in Vuze?
[03:10] <patrickegleason> Hey everyone, I need to add windows 7 to my grub menu, as well as delete osx from it. How can I do this? Ive burned supergrub to a disk but dont know what to do with it now.
[03:10] <denis123> toogreen: [Radeon HD 4870] but it's not a hardware error as my dual boot windows works fine
[03:11] <mickster04>   patrickegleason run update-grub once you have formatted the one and installed the other
[03:11] <mickster04> patrickegleason: ?
[03:12] <Alcor> denis123 load up into safe mode (bottom tool bar before inputting passwd) lower screen resolution to 2nd from top
[03:12] <patrickegleason> mickster04: I dont want to get rid of osx, just its boot option in grub
[03:12] <Alcor> my box did that after i loaded 9.10
[03:12] <mickster04>  patrickegleason ... not sure about that
[03:13] <bluebaron> Oh, dear.
[03:13] <bluebaron> I have grabbed the driver installer off of the ATI website.
[03:13] <denis123> Alcor: Hey, bottom tool bar, is that from log-in screen? Because I can't get there. I have the black glowing Ubuntu icon then it crashes before I can log on. Currently I'm on my liveCD. Could i do that from here? Just, it was working fine. Installed updates, restart and doesn't work
[03:13] <bluebaron> It gave me a .run file.
[03:13] <bluebaron> How do I use that?
[03:13] <bluebaron> There is no program already associated with it..
[03:13] <blakkheim> bluebaron: sudo sh file.run
[03:14] <bluebaron> Thanks much, your help is invaluable.
[03:15] <toogreen> denis123: I had the same problem with the same video card as yours happen today. It is a video card drivers problem. Reboot, then in the GRUB screen choose "safe mode" (2nd option)
[03:15] <toogreen> denis123: then choose command line mode with networking
[03:15] <denis123> toogreen: uh huh
[03:15] <toogreen> denis123 then you need to use "envy" to re-install ATI's driver
[03:16] <acovrig> what would cause my .bash_history to not work?
[03:16] <rosechu> I'm trying to install vmware server 2.02 on Ubuntu 9.10, and I'm following the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware/Server
[03:16] <denis123> toogreen: is this the proprietory one? Because I'm using xorg edgers
[03:16] <rosechu> but the script it tells me to run isn't working
[03:16] <denis123> toogreen: the opensource ones
[03:16] <toogreen> denis123 so type sudo aptitude install envyng
[03:16] <Alcor> denis123 I had to select the safe screen before i put in yhe passwd
[03:17] <acovrig> why does it not work only with users created with 'useradd' terminal
[03:17] <rosechu> the error is root@naito:/home/rosechu# sudo sh vmware-server-2.0.x-kernel-2.6.3x-install.sh
[03:17] <rosechu> vmware-server-2.0.x-kernel-2.6.3x-install.sh: 37: Syntax error: word unexpected (expecting ")")
[03:17] <toogreen> denis123 The "envy" program will allow you to reinstall your video card drivers easily from the console/command line
[03:17] <sudo-su> i cant install gwibber 3.0
[03:17] <sudo-su> help
[03:17] <bluebaron> Please?
[03:17] <bluebaron> Sheesh.
[03:17] <toogreen> denis123 trust me I had exactly the same probably as you this morning and I fixed it that way
[03:18] <denis123> toogreen: ah ok. so then just sudo aptitude envyng and follow the promps? Because I remember trying envy before using xorg edgers. And it stuffed me up
[03:18] <stanley_> hi guys, I really need some help, I am using KArmic Koala  have a Dell Dimension 2350 but gnome continuously freezes when I leave it on...can someone help me solve this?
[03:18] <rosechu> if anyone had any thoughts on this it would be great..
[03:18] <toogreen> denis123 yeah after you install envy, type "envyng -t" to run the text version
[03:19] <DasEi> rosechu: vmware ran on my sys without that kernel, build-essential installed ? dependencies from vm's faqs ?
[03:19] <toogreen> denis123 then I chose "Install ATI drivers", then it recommend me to install one version of the driver, I don't remember which one it was but i just chose it by typing "0"

[03:28] <DasEi> np
[03:28] <Gran_Ger> It's true that ubuntu 9.10 doesn't has xorg.conf?
[03:28] <DasEi> acovrig: checked /etc/bash.bashrc ?
[03:29] <DasEi> Gran_Ger: yes and no, it's empty btw not present in default, but can still be used
[03:29] <acovrig> DasEi, what about it, .bash_history works for every user except the onces created with 'useradd'
[03:30] <acovrig> DasEi, works for root,user1 (both created at install)
[03:31] <Gran_Ger> dasei, I'm using right now the 10.04 version. And trying the command you typed, doesn't work
[03:31] <LinuX2half> hi
[03:31] <^Delta^> #quit
[03:31] <patrickegleason> what is error code 13? when mounting a drive?
[03:31] <DasEi> acovrig: idk, did you miss sth. with their homedirs ? does a dir under /home exist for the additinal users ?
[03:31] <acovrig> DasEi, yes
[03:31] <LinuX2half> I'm wondering why does ubuntu remove some of my packages when I'm remove only specific packages.
[03:32] <LinuX2half> Like for example, when I try to remove a package, the system would also remove additional packages? Why is that?
[03:32] <iflema> LinuX2half https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingSoftware#Package%20Dependencies
[03:33] <acovrig> DasEi, I am running as user2; I ran chmod 600 ~/.bash_history and chown user2 ~/.bash_history
[03:33] <patrickegleason> trying to mount an ntfs partition, getting error 13. the same partition also not showing up in grub
[03:33] <m4v> Trek: yes, might indicate that your drive is dying (like when happened to me)
[03:33] <Trek> m4v: a restart fixed it, havent had the same issue yet *shrugs*
[03:34] <ubuntnoob> can anyone help me with webcam studio?
[03:34] <m4v> Trek: you might want to check the smart information on the drive though, for see if there's something error indications
[03:35] <m4v> s/something/some/
[03:35] <ubuntnoob> guys, need to broadcast video over webcamstudio in tinychat
[03:35] <ubuntnoob> cant get it to broadcast
[03:35] <LinuX2half> Oh, so its an dependency matter. Alright but when I remove those following package: gvfs gvfs-backends gvfs-bin gvfs-fuse libgvfscommon0 ifuse libgpod-dev  libgpod-common libiphone-utils, it removed some of my panel's applications?
[03:35] <DasEi> acovrig: so file was there, so it's a functional proble then
[03:36] <acovrig> guess so, whenever I login, it runs .profile ok, but then 'cat .bash_history' is blank
[03:36] <LinuX2half> it removed my usb creator and docs
[03:36] <acovrig> DasEi, guess so, whenever I login, it runs .profile ok, but then 'cat .bash_history' is blank
[03:36] <Roxyhart0> hi there somebody know any free software do do backup from windows/mac clients in a linux samba server?
[03:36] <LinuX2half> there are numerous others that they also had removed
[03:36] <Trek> LinuX2half: its because those programs/apps depend on those packages
[03:37] <LinuX2half> Trek: Really, I thought they aren't related
[03:37] <Guest92912> Is there a way I can restart metacity on a specified x server (e.g. from a console) none of my windows are responding to input
[03:37] <DasEi> acovrig: did you compare the bash.bashrc of the "regular users to the one of the later added ?
[03:37] <Trek> LinuX2half: using synaptic, you can see what depends on a selected package
[03:37] <shashidhar> can anybody help me about how to load an image in octave into an variable
[03:37] <Trek> er... what a selected package depends on, LinuX2half
[03:38] <acovrig> DasEi, you mean ls -la?
[03:38] <LinuX2half> Trek: Alright, thanks I thought it might be a major issue...
[03:38] <m4v> Trek: like "sudo smartctl -a /dev/sda"  (sda is an example) an check counters like Raw_Read_Error_Rate and such
[03:38] <ubuntnoob> guys, need to broadcast video over webcamstudio in tinychat
[03:38] <ubuntnoob> cant get it to broadcast
[03:38] <DasEi> acovrig: no,, there is a section concerning history, like how many entries
[03:39] <m4v> Trek: you might need the package smartmontools for use that command
[03:39] <acovrig> DasEi, I must not understand, /root/.bash_history is LONG, but /home/user2/.bash_history is empty, it's never worked
[03:40] <|mawst|> how do I list all x displays?
[03:41] <|mawst|> ugh I don't want to restart Xorg
[03:41] <DasEi> acovrig: gedit /home/$USER/.bash_history          <<sth. there ?
[03:42] <LinuX2half> See ya
[03:42] <DasEi> stanley_: urls of that pasties ?

[03:43] <britters> ok so earlier i was here about my USB wireless G card and not knowing what driver i need, but i noticed that the .inf that windows uses is r8192su, so how would I figure out what version it uses, currently using ndiswrapper, or is that standard for all realtek drivers?
[03:43] <b14ck> Is there *anyway* to undo a rm -rf command? I just rm'ed some extremely important code.
[03:44] <Trek> !undelete | b14ck
[03:44] <b14ck> thanks
[03:45] <m4v> b14ck: remount your partition as read-only if possible

[04:07] <Tamnakz1> I get a disk read error in vuze, any suggestions?

[04:07] <DasEi> acovrig: go ahead in msg, but keep conversation here

[04:16] <patrickegleason> acovrig: how ?
[04:16] <patrickegleason> acovrig: is it in compiz>
[04:16] <acovrig> patrickgleason, I think so
[04:17] <DasEi> acovrig: so user2 was just a spaceholder for the user pub ?
[04:17] <acovrig> yes

[04:18] <ZykoticK9> patrickegleason, you'll lose the ability to use the desktop for icons/files/etc - but for multiple backgrounds see http://sites.google.com/site/alucidfs/how-i-do/multiple-compiz-backgrounds
[04:19] <patrickegleason> z3r0-c001: see http://tombuntu.com/index.php/2007/09/14/animated-wallpaper-with-compiz-fusion-on-ubuntu/

[04:20] <DasEi> acovrig: or now, the sudoers file ? can pub use sudo ?
[04:20] <DasEi> acovrig: the only additional thing I did
[04:20] <z3r0-c001> nop animated      video,

[04:24] <shazbotmcnasty> can windows read NFS file system???
[04:25] <patrickegleason> shazbotmcnasty: yes
[04:25] <shazbotmcnasty> not ntfs
[04:25] <shazbotmcnasty> nfs
[04:25] <patrickegleason> shazbotmcnasty: ntfs you mean?
[04:25] <shazbotmcnasty> it can?
[04:25] <shazbotmcnasty> no.
[04:25] <patrickegleason> shazbotmcnasty: my bad
[04:25] <acovrig> DasEi, now it works, thanks
[04:25] <shazbotmcnasty> oh
[04:25] <patrickegleason> lol
[04:25] <shazbotmcnasty> k
[04:25] <blakkheim> shazbotmcnasty: windows can work with nfs
[04:25] <FloodBot2> shazbotmcnasty: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[04:25] <SwedeMike> there are plenty of nfs servers and clients for windows.
[04:25] <shazbotmcnasty> I'll eat you FloodBot2 - blakkheim that's awesome.
[04:26] <shazbotmcnasty> blakkheim, does linux do okay with nfs also?
[04:26] <SwedeMike> linux has had nfs for 15 years.
[04:26] <SwedeMike> at least
[04:26] <patrickegleason> shazbotmcnasty: yes it does
[04:26] <shazbotmcnasty> so they work well together.....
[04:26] <shazbotmcnasty> k
[04:26] <patrickegleason> shazbotmcnasty: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/mount-network-file-systems-nfssamba-in-ubuntu.html
[04:26] <acovrig> where are incidents reported? (user is not in the sudoers file.  This incident will be reported.)
[04:27] <shazbotmcnasty> patrickegleason, I'm trying to avoid samba
[04:27] <SwedeMike> acovrig: somewhere in /var/log
[04:27] <acovrig> is .bash_logout the opposite of .profile?
[04:27] <toogreen> if you don't need to interact with Windows machines, definitely go NFS.. It's much better, faster and all
[04:27] <shazbotmcnasty> I do need to interact with windows machine
[04:27] <shazbotmcnasty> s
[04:27] <shazbotmcnasty> man, you guys are confusing as hell
[04:27] <DasEi> acovrig: check the group pub for additional functionality or remove abilities there, have fun
[04:28] <acovrig> SwedeMike, thanks /var/log/auth.log
[04:28] <toogreen> shazbotmcnasty:  heheh sorry man, i just got in here... well im not sure u have a choice but use Samba then...
[04:28] <acovrig> DasEi, what do u mean
[04:28] <acovrig> I guess I ask that alot
[04:28] <toogreen> I might be wrong tho
[04:29] <toogreen> shazbotmcnasty: oh you know what you can do? You can share the same folder with both NFS and Samba... I did that once, worked fine
[04:29] <acovrig> can I have a script run on logout? (I'm not talking about /etc/gdm/PostSession)
[04:29] <tyler_> ive got a weird glitch with java.. if i make firefox fullscreen or do anything to affect the browser viewing area, the game im playign (runescape) which should autoresize its viewing area is not doing so, im guessing java isnt reporting back the new resolution of the viewing area?
[04:29] <DasEi> acovrig: adduser created a group called same for your user. this determines what pub may do or not, as does membership in other system-groups
[04:30] <toogreen> shazbotmcnasty: so my windows machines would connect through samba, and I set up the linux machines to use NFS
[04:30] <toogreen> 2 servers, same files shared
[04:30] <DasEi> acovrig: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AddUsersHowto

[04:36] <lcx> Hello everyone !
[04:36] <babalus> Hi all!
[04:36] <rww> Lajosward: "Ubuntu 10.04" and "Ubuntu Lucid Lynx" mean the same thing. One is the version number and one is the codename...
[04:36] <Lajosward> k just making sure
[04:37] <acovrig> lol oops, meant /leave not /quit
[04:38] <AutoBot> how is the stablilty of Lucid X86_64 as of late?
[04:38] <Shazbutts> It's amazing
[04:38] <Shazbutts> it's like "whoa"
[04:38] <AutoBot> lol
[04:38] <Shazbutts> like that
[04:39] <toogreen> yeah, got to agree
[04:39] <Shazbutts> How do I make my mouse sensitivity slower? I've done "xset m 1 1", and even as low as "xset m 1/100 1/100" and it's still ridiculously fast. Anyone know how to fix?
[04:39] <toogreen> its so stable im using it at work :-P I know, I know, I shouldn't...
[04:39] <Flannel> AutoBot: #ubuntu+1 for Lucid questions, thanks
[04:39] <Shazbutts> thxbai
[04:39] <AutoBot> I have only experienced a few random desktop crashes, but it seems to be good
[04:40] <AutoBot> uh ok
[04:40] <acovrig> anyone know how to have a script run on ssh logout?
[04:40] <toogreen> only thing I dislike in Lucid so far is the removal of tooltips, especially for Rhythmbox
[04:41] <peepsalot> is there any simple gui app i can use to transcode video?
[04:41] <toogreen> any1 else sharing my frustration with this decision?
[04:41] <Neezer> I'm looking to get a 30GB SSD for my os, and then use an external drive for storage for my media files. Is 30 GB large enough for the SSD drive? the OCZ vertex is down to 79 bucks after the mail in rebate.
[04:41] <toogreen> peepsalot: try Arista Transcoder
[04:41] <bluntz_> avidemux works ok for me
[04:42] <rww> toogreen: Lucid discussion and support in #ubuntu+1, not here, please :)
[04:42] <acovrig> I haven't found any putty channel, does anyone know how to run a cmd on connection in windows putty
[04:42] <toogreen> peepsalot: if its DVDs and u want it in .ogv format, then try Thoggen
[04:43] <AutoBot> @acovrig you mean by putting a ! before the command
[04:43] <bluntz_> peepsalot what are you converting from and too?
[04:43] <acovrig> AutoBot, what command?
[04:44] <zus> is there a preferred way of installing multiple desktops Ubuntu first the Kubuntu or vice verse?
[04:44] <rww> zus: it doesn't matter
[04:45] <acovrig> I find this funny, #ubuntu is the most active channel on freenode, then #debain, #gentoo, ect. top five are all linux!
[04:45] <bluntz_> can anyone help me fix my perl?
[04:45] <rww> bluntz_: depends on what's wrong with it...
[04:45] <rosechu> hey, anyone know anything about vmware and ubuntu?
[04:45] <bluntz_> configuring it I hope
[04:45] <rww> ubottu: anyone | rosechu
[04:46] <toogreen> rosechu: nope but I prefer Virtualbox personally
[04:46] <rosechu> I just installed the vmware server.. but the server console tool didn't install?
[04:46] <AutoBot> rosechu:  one is a OS and one is a virtual machine
[04:46] <rosechu> sigh
[04:46] <bluntz_> getting a urllist error and no ftp also
[04:46] <zus> rww, thanks
[04:46] <toogreen> rosechu: have you tried Virtualbox? It's free and very easy to use
[04:46] <rosechu> according to my instructions it should have gone to applications->system tools->vmware server console
[04:46] <extor> whats the best way to install ubuntu(server) on a headless box via pxe when you have no keyboard or monitor access?
[04:46] <rww> rosechu: If you don't get an answer here, #vmware might also know :)
[04:47] <rosechu> noone is talking over there
[04:47] <rosechu> following these instructions -> http://www.squidoo.com/use-existing-windows-installation-and-apps-in-ubuntu
[04:47] <zus> kinda lonely in some channels
[04:47] <rosechu> Applications > System Tools > VMware Server Console is not in ubuntu
[04:47] <rosechu> and I don't know how to start it otherwise, I found the web access but that's it

[05:06] <Alcor> wouldn't using aptitude be better than using apt?
[05:07] <bluntz_> brb
[05:07] <Shazbutts> Alcor, in some people's opinion m
[05:07] <Gnea> Alcor: they both accomplish the same thing, aptitude is a bit more anal about some things, though

[05:09] <Lajosward> the room i made when i installed ubuntu everything i download and install is put in that area corect
[05:09] <rww> Alcor: if by "helper packages" you mean recommends, both apt-get and aptitude install recommends by default in current versions of Ubuntu.
[05:09] <Alcor> when you load a primary pkg
[05:09] <Alcor> thx
[05:10] <Shazbutts> MariachiAC, try "sudo alsactl store"
[05:10] <roach> anyone know of a decent web based cpanel alternative?
[05:10] <Shazbutts> MariachiAC, if that doesn't work, then you will have to add 'alsactl restore' to your startup programs
[05:11] <roach> damn anyone have experience with a ubuntu server
[05:11] <jasonmchristos> i want to backup my home directory using rsync over ssh , i already have the ssh server setup, what is a good rsync command to do this as a reference point for getting to know rsync

[05:17] <Wren88> histo,  I Need help!
[05:17] <roach> if i want to allow a php script on my server to access outside proxies do i just forward the standard sql ports?
[05:17] <AbortD> Berzerker, best thing about it is i asked for the script
[05:17] <distatica> Is anyone aware of a program that can take arguments via stdin and generate an image file? Something that would take system stats and custom input and generate an image.
[05:17] <AbortD> do you know what a script file is?
[05:17] <Berzerker> the script for what?
[05:17] <distatica> I would like to set it as the background image for my terminal.
[05:18] <AbortD> get64flash
[05:18] <MariachiAC> one other questins how do I control services with the command line?
[05:18] <Berzerker> AbortD: does that script install 64-bit flash player?
[05:18] <AbortD> yes it does
[05:18] <hassanakevazir> Does anyone here know what package will re-install the nsswitch.conf file?
[05:18] <Wren88> i have ubuntu 9.10 x64 server and install ubuntu-desktop part and now the gui login has the mouse/keayboard frozen
[05:19] <Berzerker> AbortD: then you can just follow the link I posted and you will achieve the same result.
[05:19] <roach> does anyone know how to make my home ubuntu server function exactly like a hostgator vps
[05:19] <Wren88> please advise
[05:19] <AbortD> yeah and i asked for the script for a reason im installing it on multiple systems and dont feel like wasting my time writing it over and over
[05:20] <Shazbutts> Wren88, can you use a tty?
[05:20] <Wren88> lets me see
[05:21] <roach> anyone got some server experience willing to lend me your ear for a second
[05:21] <Wren88> Shazbutts, I can ssh into the server
[05:21] <Laibcoms> AbortD, there's a flash64 PPA from Ubuntu-Tweak, it's a script that downloads the flash64 from Adobe. The description says "alpha" tho.
[05:21] <jorge> hola
[05:22] <Berzerker> AbortD: all you do is download a plugin and cp it to a folder, put it on a flash drive and you're done, 1 command per computer
[05:22] <Wren88> what can i do?
[05:22] <Berzerker> it's not very difficult
[05:22] <Shazbutts> Wren88, well I suggest you do "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop"
[05:22] <CarlFK> roach: ask hostgator... and if they are anything like slicehost, you wont' get anything useful <grumble>
[05:22] <Shazbutts> then "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start"
[05:22] <Wren88> as root?
[05:23] <AbortD> berzerker if you cant answer a question dont put input on it please

[05:23] <SwimmingRat> Can you help me? My Ubuntu freezes. Repeatedly.  Is 9.10, up from 9.04. 32 bit AMD. No fancy stuff. Use xchat, FF, Chrome, Transmission.
[05:23] <roach> no i just want to allow my script to access outside proxies on my home server that i made screw hostgator
[05:23] <AbortD> i want the script because i need it you are not here to change my mind
[05:23] <Berzerker> AbortD: I answered your question differently, you're doing the same thing with the same amount of effort..
[05:23] <roach> i only mentioned hostgator because the script works on there vps pissed me off LOL
[05:23] <ejv> SwimmingRat: what's dmesg say? ;)
[05:24] <ejv> i gotta go , but i think it'll provide some help possibly ;)
[05:24] <AbortD> no i am using the script for a fucking purpose i install linux on alot of machines i want to make my life easier i know the script is out there
[05:24] <AbortD> i want it
[05:24] <SwimmingRat> ejv what is dmesg? is that in terminal?
[05:24] <AbortD> is that hard for you to grasp?
[05:24] <AbortD> are you retarded?
[05:24] <SwimmingRat> ejv it is very long
[05:24] <Wren88> did that and can't move mouse keyboard..
[05:24] <roach> @ abortD what script you looking for?
[05:24] <Berzerker> no, apparently you are though for not realizing how stupid your quest for this stupid script is.
[05:24] <CarlFK> AbortD: language, etc...
[05:25] <AbortD> get64flash
[05:25] <AbortD> sorryl CarlFK
[05:25] <bluntz_> AbortD  fits you well
[05:25] <roach> well if you do a google on 64 flash ubuntu deb you find it east
[05:25] <Wren88> what's next?
[05:25] <Berzerker> computer 1: extract a tar, copy a .so file. computer 2: copy a .so file, computer 3: copy a .so file, etc. etc. it's actually LESS work to do this than to use a script
[05:25] <Berzerker> think.
[05:25] <Berzerker> it'll do you well
[05:25] <AbortD> its not computer 1 2 3 idiot
[05:26] <AbortD> its more like 1 - 10
[05:26] <roach> @ abortD you are rude for a guy looking for help
[05:26] <Berzerker> ok so add in 7 more computers to my line
[05:26] <Berzerker> what's your point?
[05:26] <Wren88> can't move the mouse...
[05:26] <AbortD> no roach i ask for help finding a script and i get someone pushing me to do it the way i know how to already
[05:27] <Berzerker> AbortD: then do it, why do you need a script?
[05:27] <AbortD> because i value my time unlike you
[05:27] <AbortD> a simple click and done
[05:27] <roach> @ abortD if you know how to do it why not write all that in to a script and you have the solution
[05:27] <AbortD> i dont know how to write a script
[05:27] <roach> use gedit
[05:27] <Berzerker> I just told you it takes less time to copy 1 file than to run a script on every computer
[05:27] <AbortD> i come to a help channel for help
[05:28] <AbortD> and i get the complete opposite thanks for reminding me why i stopped using ubuntu
[05:28] <roach> @abortD put all the terminal commands into a txt document then run it with ./ document name
[05:28] <Berzerker> lol
[05:28] <roach> whola you have a script
[05:28] <bluntz_> AborteD left! woo hoo!
[05:28] <Wren88> sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop and gdm start did those but still stuck
[05:28] <Laibcoms> O_O
[05:28] <distatica> Yeah, because the other distros are notoriously easier, heh
[05:29] <roach> ok guys whenever you get a chance I could really use some help with my server
[05:29] <SwimmingRat> ejv this is what dmesg says http://pastebin.com/UgYqvvcX
[05:29] <SwimmingRat> RECAP: Can you help me? My Ubuntu freezes. Repeatedly.  Is 9.10, up from 9.04. 32 bit AMD. No fancy stuff. Use xchat, FF, Chrome, Transmission.
[05:29] <CarlFK> roach: type some stuff... hit enter? :)
[05:29] <roach> LOL @CarlFX here is the issue im having
[05:29] <Wren88> fresh install of 9.10 x64 server..
[05:30] <MidComMobile> hey people :)
[05:31] <roach> I built a jaunty server .. it is fresh this time this is the 10th time ive installed it. I have a php website that accesses outside proxies via mysql.. i cant get it to work on my home server but the thing works on hostgator vps its killing me
[05:31] <bluntz_> Can anyone help me with my perl setup?
[05:31] <MidComMobile> i've hit just a tiny brick wall using an lg e500 laptop. the battery icons in gnome, xfce, and cairo-dock all fail to recognise the presence of a battery, gnome reports 0% while cairo-dock and xfce report ac power even when the battery is not being charged.
[05:31] <domi007> hello everyone
[05:31] <Wren88> guess im lost
[05:32] <CarlFK> roach: accesses outside proxies via mysql ?  explain
[05:32] <bluntz_> Wren88 why did you install the server edition if you wanted a desktop?
[05:32] <domi007> my question is kinda interesting: I am running Ubuntu on an HTC Kaiser PDA-phone...the phone has a touchscreen built-in which is supported by a linux driver, but still I can't use it in Ubuntu, any idea why not?
[05:32] <Wren88> so i can use virtualbox
[05:33] <domi007> the ts driver is compiled into the kernel btw
[05:33] <roach> @ carlFX well it is a php site that access outside proxies to login to a site and make accounts for me... when i try to run it on my server I get an error that it cant connect and it times out.. yet on HG it works. .. i assume it uses mysql because its a PHP site
[05:34] <roach> and all my accounts and what not are stored in a DB
[05:34] <bluntz_> Wren88 you cant run vb from the desktop edition?
[05:35] <domi007> my question is kinda interesting: I am running Ubuntu on an HTC Kaiser PDA-phone...the phone has a touchscreen built-in which is supported by the kernel (driver compiled into the kernel), but still I can't use it in Ubuntu, any idea why not?
[05:35] <lifestream> Anyone know why I can't see the menu on globalmenu? I enabled it from Preferences. All that there is in Preferences is "Enable Global Menu", nothing else.
[05:35] <lifestream> Halp!
[05:35] <Wren88> yeah but im trying to use server side of ubuntu and got raid going on too
[05:35] <ZykoticK9> !repeat > domi007
[05:36] <CarlFK> roach: so it's php code that is hitting some other web site?
[05:36] <domi007> okay, okay okay guys, I got it
[05:36] <tsyj2007> All:I am coming !
[05:36] <roach> @ carlFX yes it is a script to make accounts.. but it does have a simple index.php
[05:36] <tsyj2007> haha
[05:37] <bluntz_> Wren88 just install the desktop version
[05:37] <roach> im wondering if maybe my server does not allow the correct ports or something
[05:37] <PHP_Arun> hi there ppls
[05:37] <PHP_Arun> supp
[05:37]  * PHP_Arun is backk in action
[05:37] <roach> the only hosting it works on is a vps
[05:37] <Wren88> what if i get samething?
[05:37] <PHP_Arun> VPN
[05:38] <SwimmingRat> Can you help me? My Ubuntu freezes. Repeatedly.  Is 9.10, up from 9.04. 32 bit AMD. No fancy stuff. Use xchat, FF, Chrome, Transmission.  --- someone asked me about what dmesg says... This is it. http://pastebin.com/UgYqvvcX
[05:38] <Bob_Dole> I desire one thing right now, a way to set volumes of things in ALSA in such a way that PulseAudio can not change them no matter how hard it tries, while still allowing it to change master volume.
[05:38] <CarlFK> roach: it should work...   I am guessing you need to get help with the php stuff - log files or something
[05:38] <PHP_Arun> SwimmingRat: are you using an external storage device to run your ubuntu 9.10 Karamic Koala?
[05:39] <SwimmingRat> no
[05:39] <roach> well are there any ports i need to forward or something besides the standard..... i know the script works
[05:39] <roach> i have it hosted on a vps
[05:39] <roach> and it works there but not on my server
[05:39] <Bob_Dole> Because PCM being too high makes my sound sound like crap, and PulseAudio forces PCM to be too high, changing it in alsamixer is worthless because if the GUI or keyboard shortcuts change the volume, PCM is reset to being too high again
[05:39] <SwimmingRat> PHP_Arun, no I am not using any external storage device
[05:40] <PHP_Arun> actually, since most of the ubuntus Karmic are available in 64 bit version, its difficult for your 32 bit AMD to hold the instruction set long enough for executing
[05:40] <PHP_Arun> i see
[05:40] <CarlFK> roach: "doesn't work" isn't much to go on.  the description you gave sounds like it should work without any public exposure
[05:40] <SwimmingRat> PHP_Arun, I do not have a 64 bit machine, do I?
[05:40] <PHP_Arun> so i think, you must make sure that you are running a 32 bit i386 version OS on the system
[05:40] <PHP_Arun> no u dont
[05:40] <PHP_Arun> but ur OS is 64 bit
[05:40] <Bob_Dole> o_O
[05:40] <SwimmingRat> it is?
[05:40] <Bob_Dole> wat
[05:40] <PHP_Arun> yes it is
[05:40] <roach> the log shoots me this error    PHP Warning:  stream_socket_client() [<a href='function.stream-socket-client'>function.stream-socket-client</a>]: unable to connect to tcp://127.0.0.1:3128 (Connection refused) so i forwarded that port and still no go
[05:41] <bluntz_> Wren88 I have 3 sites hosting audio and video on this box without any X probs,and it has the ati 9250 videocard to boot
[05:41] <PHP_Arun> did you order a CD or downloaded it from the net?
[05:41] <Bob_Dole> 64bit won't even begin to run on 32bit
[05:41] <lifestream> Bob_Dole, I had that problem. Someone told me to install a GUI alsa mixer, setting PCM there, quit, then the PCM will be OK forever. I  DOUBTED it would work, but it did
[05:41] <SwimmingRat> PHP_Arun, can I reinstall Ubuntu with the correct version without wiping my hard drive.
[05:41] <PHP_Arun> if so, i am 101 % sure about the OS being a 64 bit one.
[05:41] <Wren88> i use nvidia
[05:41] <PHP_Arun> yes u can
[05:41]  * SwimmingRat dances with joy cause someone noticed.
[05:41] <Bob_Dole> lifestream, I have yet to get the gui alsa program to recognize my card
[05:41] <roach> @carlfx you catch that error?
[05:41] <PHP_Arun> well for it, you will only have to erase the boot loader and the MBR.
[05:41] <PHP_Arun> and then start ubuntu  in live mode
[05:42] <bluntz_> Wren88 nvidia is far better
[05:42] <PHP_Arun> and select a partition where no OS resides
[05:42] <ZykoticK9> SwimmingRat, in a terminal run "uname -m" if it say i686 you have 32 bit - if it says x86_64 it's 64 bit
[05:42] <Wren88> yeah i use several here
[05:42] <PHP_Arun> right ZykoticK9
[05:43] <roach> can any one help with this error  PHP Warning:  stream_socket_client() [<a href='function.stream-socket-client'>function.stream-socket-client</a>]: unable to connect to tcp://127.0.0.1:3128 (Connection refused)
[05:43] <lifestream> Bob_Dole,  like i said
[05:43] <lifestream> Anyone know why I can't see the menu on globalmenu? I enabled it from Preferences. All that there is in Preferences is "Enable Global Menu", nothing else.
[05:43] <SwimmingRat> PHP_Arun,  and ZykoticK9   --> uname -m
[05:43] <SwimmingRat> i686
[05:43] <bluntz_> wren88 one other thing to try
[05:43] <Wren88> ok
[05:43] <CarlFK> yeah, it's trying to connect to itself (127.0.0.1 = localhost)
[05:43] <ZykoticK9> SwimmingRat, so you have 32bit and NOT 64 bit OS installed!
[05:43] <roach> ok i know that i get it on proxies too
[05:43] <roach> so i forwarded that port
[05:43] <bluntz_> ctrl+ backspace when it freezes may reset the x server
[05:44] <roach> but still no go
[05:44] <roach> think its webmin?
[05:44] <CarlFK> roach: proxies?
[05:44] <SwimmingRat> ZykoticK9, ok back to square one. Shall I post the recap again?
[05:44] <bluntz_> just give it a few secs to re init
[05:44] <ZykoticK9> SwimmingRat, i just wanted to clear up the 32/64bit part for you
[05:45] <ZykoticK9> SwimmingRat, i had a quick look at your pastbin - but my google-fu didn't find anything for the error sorry
[05:45] <roach> @ carlfx yeah its a pain
[05:46] <MidComMobile> i've hit just a tiny brick wall using an lg e500 laptop. the battery icons in gnome, xfce, and cairo-dock all fail to recognise the presence of a battery, gnome reports 0% while cairo-dock and xfce report ac power even when the battery is not being charged.
[05:46] <SwimmingRat> ZykoticK9, i appreciate that.  I'm still getting freezes and my guess is that it has to do with flash, though it works well (except for John Stewart and chatroulette) though igoogle fails (differently) on both browsers
[05:46] <CarlFK> roach: where did you get the php stuff?
[05:46] <Wren88> so what else to try?
[05:46] <roach> i paid for the script
[05:46] <roach> that is part of the error log
[05:46] <roach> like i said if i want to pay for hosting it works fine
[05:47] <ZykoticK9> SwimmingRat, sorry man - i really don't have anything to suggest for you.  Best of luck though.
[05:47] <SwimmingRat> ZykoticK9, I never heard of dmesg before (where would I?) or uname and didnt see them in the basic linux I looked at.
[05:47] <SwimmingRat> thanks ZykoticK9
[05:47] <bluntz_> srry Wren88 the cmd is ctrl+alt+backspace
[05:47] <SwimmingRat> I'm signing off tonight. till tomorrow.
[05:48] <Wren88> does Ubuntu hate Asus motherboards?
[05:48] <ZykoticK9> Wren88, if you are using Karmic then the command is actually alt+sysrq+k to restart Xorg
[05:48] <CarlFK> roach:  you arn't really hitting the details needed to describe the problmem.   ask the people you paid, they may be able to ask you better questions.

[05:52] <jasonmchristos> i want to backup my home directory using rsync over ssh , i already have the ssh server setup, what is a good rsync command to do this as a reference point for getting to know rsync
[05:52] <Guest70374> whats wrong with my English?
[05:52] <herbert> Guest70374 do you have a .htaccess file?
[05:52] <Guest70374> yes herbert
[05:53] <herbert> directoryindex index.html
[05:53] <tsyj2007> Guest70374: good
[05:53] <herbert> should be the start page
[05:53] <shadowmancer> hey all
[05:53] <roach> @carlfx any ideas?
[05:54] <shadowmancer> need some assistance with Audio drivers
[05:54] <Guest70374> wait were would the .htaccess file be?
[05:54] <roknir> Guest70374: if nothing else, find / -name .htaccess 2> /dev/null
[05:55] <eLcapitaL> jasonmchristos, man rsync
[05:55] <lcx2007> tsyj2007: how are you?
[05:55] <shadowmancer> I've got 9.10. using a dell studio 1747, and have both it seems 2 audio devices, according to lspci and neither of them are working on ubuntu
[05:56] <Wren88> i give up try to fix it another time..
[05:56] <tsyj2007> lcx2007: I am fine ...
[05:56] <pw> @Omen_20 yeah, Pidgin now crashes whenever I try to SMS using Yahoo.
[05:56] <bluntz_> shadow check alsamixer to make sure its not muted
[05:56] <shadowmancer> i've reinstalled all my alsa stuff and googled quite a few forums and did what they suggested but nothing so far has helped
[05:56] <TxMatt> Is there a way to view my Windows desktop from my Ubuntu 9.10 desktop without having to restart >?
[05:56] <MidComMobile> pw, pidgin crashes whenever i do /anything/ ;)
[05:56] <shadowmancer> first thing i did
[05:56] <shadowmancer> its System/Preferences/Sound
[05:57] <shadowmancer> right
[05:57] <bluntz_> no
[05:57] <Omen_20> pw, For me it doesnt crash, just acts as if that number suddenly doesnt work with Yahoo's partners. Then I reboot into Windows and it works fine.
[05:57] <bluntz_> run alsamixer from terminal
[05:57] <TxMatt> Bluntz_ was that answer to me?
[05:57] <bluntz_> shadow
[05:57] <TxMatt> kk
[05:57] <bluntz_> sorry matt
[05:57] <TxMatt> Np bud
[05:57] <Omen_20> TxMatt yeah u can view the files easy. Or did you mean visually see it like in a virtualbox?
[05:58] <Guest70374> how do i delete a file in a ubuntu server 9.1 command line?
[05:58] <roach> rm file
[05:58] <TxMatt> yeah i wanted to visually see it so i can upload some pictures from my camrea
[05:58] <roach> @ guest rm file
[05:58] <TxMatt> ubuntu isnt alowing me to use my degi
[05:58] <shadowmancer> nope doesn't say its muted
[05:58] <CarlFK> roach: any idea what /who  174.34.171.11  is?
[05:58] <TxMatt> Ijust dont want to restart..lol
[05:59] <roach> no i know who that is
[05:59] <roach> anyh idea why it wont let me connect
[05:59] <roach> think its a port
[05:59] <Omen_20> TxMatt oh well just moving files around can be done in the file manager. Do you know how to get around Ubuntu?
[05:59] <bluntz_> look at the bottom of input ctrl m mutes and unmutes the source
[05:59] <TxMatt> yeah i can do that
[06:00] <roach> carlFX | im wondering if i just dont have some standard basic ports forwarded
[06:00] <bluntz_> little box will be green if enabled
[06:00] <Omen_20> So you know how to see the files on your Windows desktop already?
[06:00] <TxMatt> Yes
[06:00] <bullgard> Clicking Synaptic > mark a certain package name > Package > Lock Version corresponds to what command-line command in dpkg?
[06:00] <CarlFK> roach: 38953 is the port.   174.34.171.11 is the box it is trying to connect to, and it's refusing it.  guessing it only accepts from some limited set of boxes
[06:00] <TxMatt> i can do it throught terminal and file manager
[06:00] <TxMatt> through
[06:00] <shadowmancer> :/ hmmm
[06:00] <roach> my server is refusing it localy
[06:01] <CarlFK> roach: whos box is 174.34.171.11 ?
[06:01] <roach> carlfx its a proxy that works its not the proxy refusing its my server refusing to allow outgoing connections
[06:01] <Omen_20> Ok so why do you need to actually see Windows just for uploading photos from a Camera? Is there a certain program your wanting to use?
[06:01] <TxMatt> ftpserver@ roach
[06:01] <TxMatt> ?
[06:02] <roach> @ TxMatt no its not ftp
[06:02] <TxMatt> I just set my ftp, i have alot of ubuntu and linux books in it.
[06:02] <TxMatt> set-up
[06:02] <roach> @TxMatt  I have ftp set up its not ftp its a socks5 proxy
[06:03] <CarlFK> roach: my guess is your server doesn't have something listening on that port, like there is more to install.  why not ask the people who you got this stuff from?
[06:03] <shadowmancer> is there any other way to control audio
[06:03] <roach> because it works on HG im not going to forward ports for all 2k proxies i have that is ridiculus
[06:03] <bluntz_> lots
[06:04] <vng> Hmm, my networking applet disappeared from the panel.  I wonder what
[06:04] <vng> 	to do to make it appear again
[06:04] <Guest13370> hi
[06:04] <bluntz_> pulse jack sox alsa
[06:04] <roach> my server does not need to listen to connnect to an outgoing proxy
[06:04] <roach> what ever ill figure it out
[06:04] <lifestream> Hi. Anyone using global-menu in XFCE? If so, can you pastebin your /home/username/xfce/panel/xfapplet-xxxxxx file?

[06:06] <lifestream> vng,  try   gnome-volume-control-applet
[06:06] <obiwan_> guys, i know directories are special files with links to the inodes of other files. However i don't know how to read this info. I tried nano dir and it errors with :file is a dir. Omg i hecking know it's a dir, but can't it simply open the binary inside it, just like it does with some mp3 files or whatever? i tried too with an hex editor and it can't either open it. How could i read their info? it's just on a learning purpose
[06:06] <TxMatt> Here is my ftp, its got lots of books on linux and ubuntu. 99.156.92.186:21 user: matt no password

[06:07] <vng> I search nm-applet in the Add to Panel dialog box. But I didn't see it
[06:08] <bluntz_> zero remove the repo
[06:08] <lifestream> vng,  are you running lucid lynx?
[06:08] <zerocool> how?
[06:08] <bluntz_> zero search for getdeb after that and remove them
[06:09] <vng> lifestream: 9.10
[06:09] <bluntz_> synaptic package manager
[06:09] <bluntz_> repositories
[06:09] <zerocool> i did it, but does no appear there
[06:09] <lifestream> vng, *frowns* and it isn't there as   Network Manager?
[06:09] <Shazbutts> I've never used global menu

[06:09] <Shazbutts> >_<
[06:10] <bluntz_> zero you did what?
[06:10] <Haffe> 5
[06:10] <lifestream> vng, I know for sure that if you go to the Terminal,   and then you run      nm-applet &        it will show up on your panel
[06:10] <vng> lifestream: let me try
[06:10] <zerocool> i tried to find the pakage in synatic to remove but i did'nt find  the pakage
[06:10] <paranoid_pedlar> can someone check out my source list?
[06:11] <Shazbutts> zerocool, that's probably because it wasn't installed from syaptic
[06:11] <bluntz_> you removed the repository?
[06:11] <Shazbutts> paranoid_pedlar, why?
[06:11] <bluntz_> oic Shaz
[06:12] <Shazbutts> bluntz_, wat
[06:12] <bluntz_> he dl the deb
[06:12] <Shazbutts> oh
[06:12] <Shazbutts> ya
[06:12] <Maletor> If I install BETA1 of 10.04 will it be easy to update to the final version once it is released?
[06:12] <Maletor> and to BETA2?
[06:12] <paranoid_pedlar> Shazbutts, I'm having ppa erros, but I don't know how to find the full ppa name. So I deleted what I thought was the error, and I still get it, so I'm worried it might be an important source I deleted
[06:12] <bluntz_> ok look for it in aptitude?
[06:12] <Shazbutts> !lucid | Maletor,
[06:12] <lifestream> Maletor,  yes and yes
[06:12] <Shazbutts> paranoid_pedlar, that wasn't a good idea
[06:13] <Shazbutts> and what is the 'error' that you're getting?
[06:13] <Shazbutts> is it about keys and trusted sources?
[06:13] <Shazbutts> because if it is, that's not an error and you can just ignore it
[06:13] <Someguy77> how do I prevent ubuntu from auto placing a icon to my devices on my dekstop?
[06:14] <CarlFK> obiwan_: i think you want something like http://lde.sourceforge.net -
[06:15] <paranoid_pedlar> Shazbutts, I know better, ant it's embarrassing... and yes that's what it is
[06:16] <Shazbutts> paranoid_pedlar, yeah, that's not an error, and you can ignore it.
[06:16] <CarlFK> obiwan_: you are correct about dirs on an ext2 fs being files, but I don't think the OS supports opening them as files.
[06:16] <paranoid_pedlar> Shazbutts, so how do I go about adding the now deleted source
[06:16] <seawolf12> how to install osip2 header?
[06:16] <Shazbutts> paranoid_pedlar, and you shouldn't go editting files that you don't know what they do. And you also should ALWAYS make a backup before changing a system file.
[06:17] <Shazbutts> paranoid_pedlar, what ubuntu are you on?
[06:17] <Shazbutts> 9.10?
[06:17] <paranoid_pedlar> Shazbutts, you're right. I haven't been following that advice. I will be from now on. I've spent enough time using Linux to be so foolish.
[06:18] <iromli> paranoid_pedlar: instead of removing something in sources list, why don't comment the line ? :)
[06:18] <paranoid_pedlar> Shazbutts, I'm on karmic
[06:18] <paranoid_pedlar> iromli, lol . it's late I guess
[06:18] <Intertricity_> I need to virtualize ubuntu under windows such that I have good performance on graphics- what would be the best way to go about that?
[06:19] <paranoid_pedlar> Shazbutts, iromli , it was a launchpad ppa
[06:19] <blakkheim> Intertricity_: virtual machines and good graphics don't go together
[06:19] <paranoid_pedlar> for karmic main
[06:19] <Intertricity_> blakkheim, aw :[
[06:19] <Shazbutts> paranoid_pedlar, this is the default sources.list for karmic: http://pastebin.org/127348
[06:19] <Shazbutts> find the one you deleted and replace it
[06:19] <ZykoticK9> Intertricity_, VirtualBox with Guest Additions is probably your best bet - but "good performance" not sure that's possible.
[06:19] <bluntz_> zerocool still here?
[06:19] <paranoid_pedlar> Thanks a lot Shazbutts
[06:20] <paranoid_pedlar> :D
[06:20] <Intertricity_> Well I need to run ubuntu and compile some things, since it's a pain inwindows- but I need it to access my graphics card :\
[06:20] <Shazbutts> paranoid_pedlar, then do 'sudo apt-get update' in terminal
[06:20] <zerocool> bluntz- it says that the pakage is no intaled but when im trygin to update i get this erros  W: Imposible obtener http://archive.getdeb.net/ubuntu/dists/robby-getdeb/games/binary-i386/Packages  404 Not Found
[06:20] <zerocool> ...
[06:20] <lifestream> Can anyone show me their globalmenu config file? Mine isn't showing the menu, and there is no option in preferences to enable the menu
[06:20] <vng> why I couldn't find nm-applet in the Add to Panel dialog box? How could I find it?
[06:20] <bluntz_> yo zero run this and look for that package from the log
[06:20] <bluntz_> dpkg --get-selections > /backup/installed-software.log
[06:20] <wheels3321> hi I am  wondering is a Grub4Dos Menu Maker for windows for the menu.lst file because I find 1 but it is in korean but i need 1 in English?
[06:21] <CarlFK> Intertricity_: most VMs have drivers for the virtual graphics card - ask in #qemu or #vmware or whatever vm you are using
[06:21] <Intertricity_> CarlFK, ahhh ok thanks
[06:21] <vng> anyone?
[06:22] <bluntz_> make a launcher for it
[06:22] <ranjan> just now installed conky
[06:22] <zerocool> it's says that the file do not exist
[06:22] <ranjan> how to configure it??
[06:22] <ActionParsnip> Yo yo yo
[06:22] <bluntz_> hmm
[06:22] <vng> bluntz_: wha's its name?
[06:22] <Shazbutts> ranjan, .conkyrc
[06:22] <bluntz_> the software log doesnt exist?
[06:22] <zerocool> nop
[06:23] <bullgard> Clicking Synaptic > mark a certain package name > Package > Lock Version corresponds to what command-line command in dpkg?
[06:23] <zerocool> :/
[06:23] <Maletor> I cannot boot into a RAID5 correct?
[06:23] <bluntz_> k 1 sec
[06:23] <ranjan> Shazbutts, how to change the theme??
[06:23] <bluntz_> think maybe you dont have a backup dir
[06:23] <bluntz_> dpkg --get-selections > installed-software.log
[06:24] <Shazbutts> ranjan, there is no 'theme'
[06:24] <bluntz_> look for in home
[06:24] <zerocool> ok
[06:24] <bluntz_> after running
[06:24] <bluntz_> k
[06:24] <Shazbutts> ranjan, you have to write, or in your case, find a .conkyrc that you like
[06:24] <ActionParsnip> Maletor: let me websearch. Not sure
[06:24] <Shazbutts> ranjan, http://www.ubuntugeek.com/conky-a-light-weight-system-monitor-for-ubuntu-linux-systems.html
[06:24] <ranjan> Shazbutts, but i see in many screenshots conky bar with different colorc
[06:24] <ranjan> Shazbutts, ok thank you
[06:25] <ActionParsnip> Maletor: hardware or software raid?
[06:25] <Maletor> soft
[06:26] <ActionParsnip> Ok (bah)
[06:26] <b14ck> I've got freeradius running. It says in the debugging output that it is listening on ports 1812 and 1813 for connections, but the other server I have can't connect to it. Is there a way that I can debug (on my ubuntu server) if freeradius actually is listening for connections on 1812 and 1813? Is there a command to show what processes are using what ports?
[06:26] <zerocool> ok i open the file.. and the getdeb-repository appeas as a deinstall
[06:26] <ActionParsnip> B14ck: netstat -a | grep 1812
[06:26] <ranjan> Shazbutts, http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/CONKY-colors?content=92328
[06:27] <bluntz_> ok so do sudo apt-get update
[06:27] <CarlFK> obiwan_: in googing around i found something you migt like: http://linuxgazette.net/issue21/ext2.html
[06:28] <obiwan_> thanks CarlFK ! :)
[06:28] <zerocool> getting the same problem an error tryin to dounlad a getdeb file
[06:29] <zerocool> theres any way that i can remove this page form de updater?
[06:29] <zerocool> sorry about my english..
[06:29] <Shazbutts> ranjan, I need to shower, you can google how to get conky working, there is hundreds and hundreds of web pages that are for conky
[06:29] <bluntz_> you just removed the getdeb repo ,of course you will get an error !
[06:29] <paranoid_pedlar> Thanks a lot Shazbutts . it's clean. probably just deleted a ppa
[06:29] <tomoj> 'apt-get upgrade' lists 12 packages that are 'held back', including linux-generic etc. I just did 'aptitude upgrade' and it went ahead and installed the upgrades. am I about to be hosed?
[06:29] <Shazbutts> ranjan, utilise your friend google
[06:29] <zerocool> how can i fixed?
[06:30] <zerocool> i get 404 not found error
[06:30] <ActionParsnip> Maletor: looks ok to me: http://bfish.xaedalus.net/2006/11/software-raid-5-in-ubuntu-with-mdadm/ you could ask the guy if the raid is bootable too as an extra avenue of asking ;)
[06:30] <paranoid_pedlar> how goes it ActionParsnip ?
[06:30] <ranjan> Shazbutts, friend that was not a doubt ...i was showing you there is theme for conky
[06:30] <ZykoticK9> tomoj, you're all good man :)
[06:30] <Maletor> Looks like I need to create a 100M partition across all drives...
[06:30] <Maletor> "/boot"
[06:30] <Shazbutts> ranjan, I know there is theme for conky
[06:30] <Shazbutts> you have to change it youself
[06:30] <Shazbutts> aksf;kajg;oikjhfashn
[06:30] <Shazbutts> bye bye
[06:30] <tomoj> ZykoticK9: so why does apt-get refuse to upgrade these packages?
[06:30] <tomoj> and they seemed to be marked with {a} by aptitude
[06:30] <ActionParsnip> Tomoj: the packages are ready but the deps are not satisfied so the are held back
[06:30] <tomoj> ah, I see
[06:31] <bluntz_> Zero you can not upgrade with getdeb packages
[06:31] <tomoj> thanks
[06:31] <ranjan> Shazbutts, but you said that there is no theme for conky when i asked you  :)
[06:31] <vng> How do I make the NetworkManager appear in the panel?
[06:31] <ZykoticK9> tomoj, it's common - you need to use "apt-get distupgrade" or something
[06:31] <ActionParsnip> Paranoi_pedlar: tired but I'm on day 3 of 4 so its normal
[06:31] <vng> How do I make the NetworkManager applet appear in the panel?
[06:31] <ActionParsnip> Tomoj: are you on lucid per chance?
[06:31] <bluntz_> you must uninstall all the forien packages
[06:32] <ActionParsnip> Vng: press alt+f2 type: nm-applet ,press enter
[06:32] <zerocool> how do i know what to unistaal?
[06:32] <ActionParsnip> Paranoid_pedlar: all good on your system?
[06:32] <speiros> Hello, does anybody know the address of the evolution chat site?  I typed #evolution, but when there I can't talk to anyone.
[06:32] <zerocool> synaptic
[06:32] <tomoj> ActionParsnip: karmic
[06:33] <ActionParsnip> Speiros: what are you told when you try? Must be regged? Invited?
 I'll have a look.
[06:33] <ActionParsnip> Tomoj: ok cool. My lucid rig has a few packages held back too, when the time time is ready they will come
 It says "Cannot send to channel"
[06:34] <bluntz_> vn got fixed?
[06:34] <tomoj> well, thanks, going to test these updates :)
[06:34] <ActionParsnip> Speiros: weird. I'd ask in #freenode for the admins to translate
[06:34] <zerocool> i don't know whaht or how to unistall... firs time on this os
[06:35] <CarlFK> speiros and all: it also says " talk to freenode staff if you represent the Evolution"   guessing it got hijacked
 Thanks mate.  Will do.  Enjoy your day.
[06:35] <zerocool> i'm a win usr :/
[06:35] <obiwan_> CarlFK: really interesting thnks dude
What does hijacked mean?
[06:35] <wolter> What modules enable wireless internet? Sometimes I turn on my computer and they are not loaded and I have to pull out weird tricks to get internet..
[06:35] <bluntz_> zero less headaches for you to just reinstall the whole thing...
[06:36] <wolter> zerocool, what happened to you? (i just walked in)
[06:36] <ActionParsnip> Wolter: what is the output of: sudo lshw -C network ,use http://pastebinit.com to give the output
[06:37] <ActionParsnip> Wolter: their is no single module for all wireless. It depends on the chip
[06:37] <zerocool> i has installed getdeb.net pakage i unistalled but know cant do any system update
[06:37] <CarlFK> speiros: hijacked = taken over by not evolution people.  long shot: they con you into instaling something that spams
Thanks mate.  Gotcha.
[06:38] <ActionParsnip> Zerocool: can you run: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade and use http://pastebinit.com to give the output (or any pastebin site you know)
[06:38] <wolter> ActionParsnip, http://paste.ubuntu.com/405835/
[06:38] <iromli> zerocool: have you removed the getdeb package?
[06:39] <bluntz_> yes he did
[06:39] <ActionParsnip> Wolter: wl0 is your module
[06:39] <bluntz_> but he is first timer
[06:39] <kprav33n> Hi! I have a machine where gnome desktop is not installed.
[06:39] <ActionParsnip> Wolter: read the output, look at the driver= bits ;)
[06:39] <kprav33n> I have only Emacs compiled with GTK.
[06:39] <kprav33n> I want to setup the font hinting.
[06:40] <wolter> ActionParsnip, so whenever that happens to me--and "Enable wireless" appears greyed out in the network right-click menu--all I have to do is sudo insmod wl0 ?
[06:40] <kprav33n> Does anyone know where is the configuration for font hinting?
[06:41] <arooni-mobile___> is there any way to adjust my volume on ubuntu so that it lowers MASTER, PCM, and SURROUND in lock step (all at same time)?  my volume seems to be composed as a function of all thre of them
[06:41] <nomad77> kprav33n:  make a ~/.fontconfig or edit current
[06:42] <nomad77> kprav33n: or set it in your ~/.Xdefaults
[06:42] <kprav33n> nomad77, .fontconfig is a directory for me.
[06:42] <kprav33n> Is it .fonts.conf?
[06:42] <bluntz_> kprav man emacs
[06:43] <kprav33n> bluntz_, My question has nothing to do with Emacs. Thanks!
[06:44] <zerocool> iromili yes i did i remove the getdeb.net pakage
[06:45] <iromli> zerocool: well, it's strange that synaptic is broken after you remove the getdeb
[06:45] <nomad77> kprav33n: yes sorry
[06:45] <kprav33n> nomad77, No problem. Thanks!
[06:46] <wolter> brilliant...
[06:46] <nomad77> iromli: he needs to comment out his apt sources i thought.
[06:46] <zerocool> walter :http://pastebin.com/D57YBbvZ here is the sudo apt-get update
[06:47] <bullgard> Clicking Synaptic > mark a certain package name > Package > Lock Version corresponds to what command-line command in dpkg?
[06:49] <zerocool> sorry this is
[06:49] <zerocool> http://pastebin.com/jehBFVak
[06:50] <wolter> !tab | zerocool
[06:50] <wolter> zerocool, thats normal, why do you say you cannot update?
[06:51] <wolter> That only menas that getdeb.net is missing some files you *would* need when installing something from them
[06:51] <[QUAD64]> i have a sudo problem
[06:51] <[QUAD64]> I'm trying to run sudo from php, but I keep getting permission errors
[06:51] <[QUAD64]> I added the apache/php user to sudoers for 1 command, but I can't run it still
[06:51] <wolter> but that doesn't mean you cannot update your computer. Run [# update-manager] and you'll see you maybe have some updates. Now, if you want to get rid of that getdeb thing, because you won't use getdeb anymore, you can open Software Sources
[06:52] <wolter> ActionParsnip left?
[06:52] <wolter> zerocool, also, fito paez was giving a concert in my country yesterday
[06:52] <zerocool> how do i get rip of thhat  update of getdeb.net?
[06:52] <iromli> [QUAD64]: what are you trying to achieve there ? :)
[06:53] <[QUAD64]> restart the machine from php
[06:53] <maginot> good evening.
[06:53] <wolter> zerocool, if you are do not want to use getdeb.net ever again in your life, then open Software Sources in the Other Software tab; look for a line with 'getdeb
[06:53] <wolter>  zerocool and uncheck/remove (depending on what you want to do)
[06:53] <wolter> Uncheck if you may use later
[06:54] <Maletor> In fdisk blocks = kilobytes ?
[06:54] <wolter> zerocool, but understand, its not harming you
[06:54] <iromli> [QUAD64]: something like sudo php 'php_file'?
[06:54] <[QUAD64]> yeah, exactly that
[06:55] <kprav33n> Got hinting configured via ~/.fonts.conf
[06:55] <kprav33n> Here is my setting http://pastebin.mozilla.org/711225
[06:55] <kprav33n> Thanks!
[06:55] <zerocool> haa ok tks.. i thougt that this error cant get me the update of the system... it's my frist time on linux.. and i'n kinda lost...
[06:56] <[QUAD64]> I can ssh into the system as that user, and the sudoers is working just fine
[06:56] <[QUAD64]> no password
[06:56] <iromli> [QUAD64]: what is the error message given?
[06:56] <[QUAD64]> [sudo] password for www-data:Sorry, try again.[sudo] password for www-data:Sorry, try again.[sudo] password for www-data:Sorry, try again.sudo: 3 incorrect password attempts
[06:56] <[QUAD64]> except I'm not giving it any input so I don't even know where this password is coming from
[06:57] <FireCrotch> [QUAD64]: you need to give the www-data user permission to do the reboot without a password, in your sudoers file.
[06:57] <mjsor> ubuntu 9.10 here : I have a daemon I want to run at boot, but I'm not sure where to put the script to start it.  Is this something for one of the /etc/rcX.d directories, or elsewhere?
[06:58] <nomad77> mjsor: /etc/init.d iirc
[06:58] <[QUAD64]> yeah, I've modified sudoers
[06:58] <[QUAD64]> ok ok ok, I think I'm onto something
[06:59] <[QUAD64]> I'm calling a php script via sudo and i'm passing it an argument
[06:59] <[QUAD64]> I can call the script withOUT an argument, but when I give it an argument, sudo complains
[06:59] <wolter> zerocool, yeah don't worry, its a bit confusing at the beginning
[07:00] <wolter> zerocool, but then you'll love it
[07:00] <iromli> wolter: agree with you :D
[07:01] <QUAD64> zero cool, that name is awesome
[07:01] <QUAD64> hack the planet!
[07:02] <zerocool> water, im loving it rigt know, i love the way to install everithing u want on the terminal, the stability of the sistem, but been a win user  i'm used to next netx netx, error, and unistal install jajaja
[07:02] <wolter> zerocool, use tab completion

[07:06] <[QUAD64]> stupid...
[07:06] <[QUAD64]> just found my problem
[07:06] <[QUAD64]> I needed to specify a wildcard as the argument for sudoers
[07:06] <iromli> [QUAD64]: and that would be ... ??
[07:06] <wolter> ActionParsnip, are you testing lucid?
[07:06] <[QUAD64]> *
[07:07] <ActionParsnip> Aringilbert: you'll need to flash it with a new rom. You will need a card reader to put various file/s on it to flash. Youtube helps here
[07:07] <iromli> [QUAD64]: glad it works :)
[07:07] <ActionParsnip> Wolter: yeah runs great here
[07:07] <[QUAD64]> www-data ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/php -f /var/www-scripts/configureInterfaces.php {*}
[07:07] <[QUAD64]> hehe, me too
[07:07] <wolter> ActionParsnip, are you getting a slower logon time since lucid beta?
[07:08] <ActionParsnip> Wolter: lxde jumps straight up after the OS loads so no can't say I've seen that
[07:08] <ActionParsnip> Wolter: what DE / WM are you using?
[07:09] <wolter> ActionParsnip, oh.. i'm using gdm, but my startup applications looks the same, so I wouldn't know whats making my logon slower
[07:09] <aringilbert> cool thank you action
[07:09] <ActionParsnip> Wolter: using compiz with gnome you mean?
[07:09] <zerocool> wol

[07:27] <abhi_nav> anyone please?
[07:28] <rww> abhi_nav: ctrl-z doesn't halt, it pauses. Run "fg" in the terminal you did ctrl-z in and let it finish or kill it.
[07:28] <abhi_nav> rww: i want to kill it . how to kill it?
[07:29] <rww> abhi_nav: Is it in the middle of installing packages, or just downloading?
[07:29] <abhi_nav> rww: just downloaing
[07:29] <rww> abhi_nav: ctrl-c
[07:29] <abhi_nav> downloading*
[07:30] <abhi_nav> rww: i dd that halting thing yesterday then hibernate my pc and now I am trying to install new software
[07:30] <hassanakevazir> can anyone pm me a copy of their /etc/hosts ?
[07:30] <abhi_nav> did*
[07:30] <abhi_nav> rww: bash: fg: current: no such job. what is fg how to use it?
[07:30] <krumpthu6> hello
[07:31] <danny> how can i burn an img file to usb stick?
[07:31] <rww> hassanakevazir: http://paste.ubuntu.com/405850/
[07:31] <abhi_nav> !unetbootin | danny
[07:31] <rww> abhi_nav: did you use apt-get or aptitude?
[07:31] <krumpthu6> just copy it
[07:31] <zerocool> wolter, i get into /etc/apt/sources.list.d and delete the getdeb.list and the error dont appear anymore tks :D
[07:31] <abhi_nav> rww: from command prompt
[07:31] <mlaci> hi guys! i'd like to set the kde theme from gnome. how can i do it?
[07:31] <rww> abhi_nav: What command did you use to tell it to install stuff?
[07:31] <danny> unetbootin only gives me the option to do ISO's....can i also do img?
[07:32] <zerocool> iromli,  i get into /etc/apt/sources.list.d and delete the getdeb.list and the error dont appear anymore tks :D
[07:32] <abhi_nav> rww: administrator@abhi-laptop:~$ sudo tasksel install lamp-server
[07:32] <abhi_nav> danny i think iso is itself an image.
[07:32] <rww> abhi_nav: alright. "sudo killall tasksel" should do it.
[07:32] <iromli> zerocool: ok :)
[07:33] <hassanakevazir> rww, Thanks a lot man, I was getting "Cannot resolve host" when executing a root, that fixed it
[07:33] <abhi_nav> rww: tasksel: no process found
[07:33] <danny> yes it is an image...but i hav an IMG
[07:33] <abhi_nav> danny, then you can convert it to .iso
[07:33] <hassanakevazir> when using sudo*
[07:33] <rww> abhi_nav: copy the output of "ps -AH" to http://paste.ubuntu.com/ and link the created page here
[07:33] <abhi_nav> rww: hmm ok
[07:33] <gottto> ubuntu has an apt to install .img files on usb - for unr - don't know the name atm
[07:34] <danny> how can i convert it to an ISO ?
[07:34] <rww> hassanakevazir: yeah, you're supposed to add "127.0.0.1 hostnamehere" for the old and new hostname while switching, then remove the old one once it's switched over. Glad I could help :)
[07:34] <Kartagis> danny, sudo apt-get install img2iso
[07:34] <danny> oh ok nice
[07:34] <abhi_nav> rww: output of ps -AH: http://paste.ubuntu.com/405851/
[07:36] <abhi_nav> danny, then you can read man img2iso. for your info: do img2iso <source.img> <dest.iso>
[07:36] <rww> abhi_nav: you only have software-center running right now. Is that the thing that you're trying to use that's erroring out?
[07:36] <abhi_nav> rww: yes
[07:36] <abhi_nav> rww: should i show you the screenshot?
[07:37] <rww> abhi_nav: sure
[07:37] <abhi_nav> rww: hmm ok
[07:39] <abhi_nav> rww: this is screenshot: http://imagebin.org/90713
[07:39] <stevecam> am i the only one noticing or is firefox getting really buggy
[07:39] <abhi_nav> no me too stevecam
[07:40] <cwraig> is there any way to find which package contains the file jpeglib.h ?
[07:40] <nexus_lamp> ciao a tutti sono passato da poco a linux nn riesco a usare i programmi di windows tramite wine
[07:40] <nexus_lamp> mi potete aiutare
[07:41] <stevecam> is this an ubuntu problem or a firefox oen?
[07:41] <stevecam> one
[07:41] <rww> abhi_nav: what's the output of "sudo lsof /var/lib/dpkg/lock" ?
[07:41] <rww> ubottu: it | nexus_lamp
[07:43] <abhi_nav> rww: "sudo lsof /var/lib/dpkg/lock" ?
[07:43] <abhi_nav> rww: lsof: WARNING: can't stat() fuse.gvfs-fuse-daemon file system /home/administrator/.gvfs
[07:43] <abhi_nav>       Output information may be incomplete.
[07:43] <rww> abhi_nav: that's all of the output?
[07:44] <eLcapitaL> i am trying to create a chroot jail but when i login to it su gives me the error "could not open session" how can i get a better error message out of su
[07:45] <abhi_nav> rww: yes
[07:46] <rww> abhi_nav: alright. The likely problem is that gvfs is messed up for some reason, and thus software-center can't figure out whether another program locked the package database. The easiest way to fix this would be to restart, to be honest; it's a rather obscure condition...
[07:47] <rww> logging out and back in again might also fix it, I forget whether that cycles gvfs or not.
[07:47] <abhi_nav> rww: i just restared. before asking this questino
[07:48] <abhi_nav> rww: ??
[07:48] <rww> that would have been relevant to mention earlier...
[07:48] <rww> abhi_nav: alright. Does .gvfs exist in your home directory?
[07:48] <abhi_nav> rww: wait
[07:49] <Someguy77> what's a good pdf editor that supports annotate as well?

[07:55] <Someguy77> does anyone know the gconf-editor entry to disable links to hardware devices automatically being created on the desktop?
[07:55] <eLcapitaL> gotto: that didnt help, the jail directory already has the execute bit set
[07:57] <gottto> eLcapitaL: is /proc mounted in the chrooted environment?
[07:57] <madara> hi, using cmus here... it doesn't display all my artists, anyone know why? Tags are ok and i haven't changed the configuration file...
[07:57] <wolter> What do I have to do to anchor a launcher to the indicator applet?
[07:58] <eLcapitaL> gotto, how do i check that?
[07:58] <philippe> What is the command to know which version of Java is running (sun, openJDK...) ?
[07:58] <scratch> when i am playing ./login command it throwing this error:ERROR: Scratchbox is not properly set up
[07:58] <eLcapitaL> gottto, will the proc directory be listed in the jail's root?
[07:58] <vng> philippe: java --version
[07:58] <guntbert> wolter: I don't think that will work - the indicator applett is for ... well ... indicating things
[07:59] <wolter> guntbert, oh well, I don't know if I'm naming it right... its the thing where evolution, empathy and gwibber appear
[07:59] <vng> philippe: java -version
[07:59] <gottto> eLcapitaL: dunno - I googled - chroot could not open session - and there were some fedora links mentioning it
[07:59] <philippe> Doesn't work.
[08:00] <philippe> I get "Unrecognized option: --version"
[08:00] <guntbert> wolter: should be - yes - but as there is no "add to panel.." in the context menu...
[08:00] <vng> philippe: java -version
[08:01] <wolter> guntbert, well, I know its possible because xchat-indicator package hooks xchat to it
[08:01] <wolter> but I tried copying a file to /usr/share/indicator/messages/applications and it didn't work
[08:01] <guntbert> wolter: but only an indicator - not a launcher
[08:01] <wolter> guntbert, well, just a button that launched xchat
[08:01] <wolter> thats all li need
[08:02] <eLcapitaL> gottto, well thanks, i suppose all i can do now is try to analyze it with strace
[08:02] <disappearedng> Anyone here familiar with tfidf?
[08:02] <vng> philippe: java -version
[08:02] <philippe> Thanks it works ! But I remember there was a command to see all Java virtual machines
[08:02] <vng> philippe: try that
[08:02] <guntbert> wolter: no, it didn't launch xchat - only shows the (hidden) window once xchat is started already
[08:03] <guntbert> gottto: does that help? http://www.nistor.co.uk/2009/12/chroot-into-ubuntu-from-debian/

[09:07] <inder> danx : okie thanks ...but in the installed scratchbox there is no sb-menu file
[09:07] <danx> vistro_: where it says <filename> you can use a directory name, change the rm -f to rm -R; the first parameter find <directory> is the parent directory of the directories you want to delete
[09:07] <iromli> vistro_: filename could be a wildcard

[09:09] <murlidhar> i was wondering if i could undecorate a metactiy windows whenever it maximizes ........
[09:09] <murlidhar> is it possible ?
[09:09] <murlidhar> devilspie ? anyone ?
[09:09] <Salva1> Hello. Hello. My gvfs-metadata directory is taking more than 3 GB.
[09:10] <danx> vistro_: if you want to search root-owned files (i.e. the entire system with "/") you'll need to use "sudo"
[09:10] <Salva1> Is this common?
[09:10] <vistro_> find /home/user/Images/ -name "thumb*" -print0 | xarg -0 rm -R is still missing an operand, let me look up the list
[09:10] <vistro_> I just need to take my *chan archiver and kill the thumbnails so I can extract the memes
[09:12] <jlpicard1701e> someone?
[09:12] <knoppies> jlpicard1701e, sorry, I use gnome not kde, so I dont know.
[09:12] <vistro_> it still hates find -name "thumbs" -print0 | xargs -0 rm -R
[09:13] <vistro_> around 1200 directories I don't think it's possible by hand
[09:13] <jlpicard1701e> knoppies> thanks to you anyway.....maybe someone else?
[09:13] <danx> vistro_: "thumbs" is just and example... like find /some/dir -name "*.mp3" -print0 | xargs -0 du -h
[09:13] <gottto> vistro_: find -name thumb* /path/search
[09:14] <Kartagis> I hooked up my phone via usb, and I selected Storage on the phone, but I can't see it on my laptop. any ideas what do do?
[09:14] <Kartagis> to do?*
[09:14] <vistro_> Kartagis: Android device?
[09:14] <Kartagis> vistro_, symbian
[09:14] <vistro_> good luck :p
[09:14] <EagleWatch> HI all! My openvz on ubuntu server doesn't establish connection, but I have ping replies. any ideea?
[09:14] <SmartSsa> find ./ -name "thumbs" -exec echo {} \;
[09:15] <danx> vistro_: change the parameters according to your needs, be very careful it is quite efficient
[09:15] <vistro_> On android, I could tell you exactly how to make it cook bagels
[09:15] <SmartSsa> replace 'echo' with rm -rf when you like the results.
[09:15] <knoppies> vistro_, I like the metaphor.
[09:15] <Kartagis> if I can see it without problems on Windows, shouldn't I be able to see it on Ubuntu too?
[09:15] <guntbert> !danger | SmartSsa
[09:15] <vistro_> lol
[09:15] <SmartSsa> wtf
[09:16] <danx> SmartSsa: you should avoid find -exec
[09:16] <vistro_> ity's only removing that particular directory and it's contents when found
[09:16] <SmartSsa> danx: explain.
[09:16] <guntbert> vistro_: and how is that not disruptive for a user?
[09:16] <vistro_> and it just comes up with the next prompt
[09:17] <vistro_> well, in the context it was put in it wasn't raping the entire drive
[09:17] <tuzi> ddd
[09:17] <danx> vistro_: SmartSsa if you knew what it can do you wouldn't be advicing people to use it unless it's necessary, find + xargs will do the job for vistro_ he/she just needs to find the right parameters to find the files he/she wants.
[09:18] <guntbert> SmartSsa: vistro_ : danx : no need to discuss that here - nobody spoke about total destruction
[09:18] <knoppies> vistro, once you have worked out which commands to use, could you pastebin (or just paste them here), I would like to do the same thing.
[09:18] <noaXess_netubu> i get this in Xorg.0.log: http://paste.ubuntu.com/405886/
[09:18] <vistro_> I'm still confused of which command I'm changing to fit this task
[09:18] <noaXess_netubu> any idea? the screen is flickering even on ubuntu start, before X is started?
[09:19] <noaXess_netubu> join #xorg
[09:19] <eto> hello has somebody an idea how can i install ethtool into running damn small linux session from livecd? i can\t find info on their site, their channel si dead, and sudo apt-get install doesn't work there
[09:19] <eto> ?
[09:19] <eto> please
[09:20] <guntbert> !ot | eto
[09:20] <eto> guntbert : really thank you
[09:20] <thansen> is there a way to force the 'hardware drivers' to detect that my video card can use them?  I have an ati and nothing is appearing.
[09:20] <eto> thansen : do you have agp radeon by hazard?
[09:20] <thansen> it's a firepro m7740
[09:21] <thansen> in dell precision m6500 laptop
[09:21] <vistro_> find ./ -name "thumbs" -exec echo {} \; problem is I can only get it to show output if I replace thumbs with * or any digit; it doesen't look like it's going more than 1 folder deep
[09:21] <Kartagis> how can I mount a symbian phone if it's showing up in lsusb output?
[09:21] <eto> new card? i had to upgrade from 8.04 to 8.10 to get card recognised
[09:21] <vistro_> structure is: DEAD THREADS>(idnumber)>thumbs
[09:21] <mikeydee> hello
[09:21] <guntbert> vistro_: try -iname (to ignore capitalization)
[09:21] <thansen> eto, it's been out for a while...since september or so...I'm running 10.04 right now
[09:21] <vistro_> and I've CDd over to DEAD THREADS
[09:22] <guntbert> !lucid | thansen
[09:22] <eto> thansen : try envy-ng
[09:22] <danx> eto: try adding debian's repositories first
[09:23] <eto> danx : can you please point me in direction where can i actually read on how to do it? I don't understand differencies between distros well
[09:23] <dwj> hi
[09:23] <eto> how to add debian repos that is
[09:23] <danx> Kartagis: when you plug the phone, it will ask if you want it to show as USB Mass Storage device, choose this option.
[09:23] <vistro_> ntsplit?
[09:24] <knoppies> which package is better, nautilus-cd-burner or brasero?
[09:24] <Kylax> Hey guys can you tell me how to change my gdm theme?
[09:24] <Kartagis> danx, I already did that, but no luck
[09:24] <knoppies> vistro_, I think so.
[09:24] <danx> thansen: what ati card do you have?
[09:24] <Kartagis> knoppies, k3b
[09:24] <thansen> danx, m7740
[09:24] <knoppies> Kylax, what version of ubuntu?
[09:24] <knoppies> thanks Kartagis
[09:24] <Kylax> Hey guys can you tell me how to change my gdm theme i cant find any options to do it but i see gdm themes in repos so it makes no sense?
[09:24] <vistro_> find ./ -name "thumbs" -exec echo {} \; with iname breaks it completley
[09:24] <danx> Kartagis: run "sudo fdisk -l" and see if it's listed there
[09:24] <Kylax> knoppies, 10.04
[09:24] <thansen> danx, it's in dell precision m6400 and m6500 laptops
[09:25] <Kartagis> knoppies, brasero refuses to burn ISOs for me after a while, but it does burn it when I reboot
[09:25] <Kylax> knoppies, 10.04 beta, lucid lync or w/e the newest
[09:25] <vistro_> I'll just try again tomorrow. 3:30 AM I can't delete all of these by hand
[09:25] <Kartagis> danx, it's not
[09:25] <danx> eto: damn small linux is based on knoppix which is based on debian, read wikipedia for more info about them; you need to edit your sources file (/etc/apt/sources.list)
[09:26] <knoppies> Kylax, Im not sure, I know of a pything script that I use for 9.10, let me find the link, maybe it will help you.
[09:26] <SmartSsa> vistro_: that's strange... I get this when I use that line for something I know exists; http://paste.ubuntu.com/405889/
[09:26] <eto> danx thx
[09:26] <knoppies> Kylax, forgive me for my lack of spelling. Python is what I meant.
[09:26] <Kylax> uh
[09:27] <Kartagis> danx, I can see it now, I had to unplug then plug it back
[09:27] <MSK> Hi .. can i browse my windows mobile from ubuntu 9.04 ?
[09:27] <guntbert> !who | vistro_
[09:27] <knoppies> !pastebin
[09:27] <Kylax> sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install python-gdm2setup
[09:27] <Kylax> ?
[09:27] <Gorlist> hi, how can I ssh onto a server from terminal?
[09:28] <knoppies> Kylax, maybe.
[09:28] <guntbert> vistro_: I meant use find ./ -iname "thumbs" .....
[09:28] <Gorlist> ssh -l?
[09:28] <Kylax> yea thats it
[09:28] <Kylax> thanks anyway
[09:28] <dwj> ...........................................
[09:28] <guntbert> Gorlist: or ssh user@server
[09:28] <Gorlist> guntbert, thanks, how do you also define the port?
[09:28] <danx> thansen: seems like you'll have to download the driver from Dell site (if they have a linux one)
[09:29] <guntbert> Gorlist: -p <port> (but please have a look at man ssh for further details)
[09:29] <thansen> danx, well, the laptop can be configured with redhat..so I'd presume yet
[09:29] <titan_ark> i was planning to reinstall my linux boot. i was once suggested to make separate partitions for /boot and/home etc. i do not remember how, could someone point me  to where i can fidn this info
[09:29] <Gorlist> guntbert, right thanks!
[09:29] <danx> thansen: there is no driver for your card in the entire Ati drivers cathalog, another FirePro may work though
[09:29] <eto> danx thx very much i sorted out
[09:29] <eto> *it
[09:30] <eto> thansen : you can try install the driver manually
[09:30] <mikeydee> hello n e one wanna chat?
[09:30] <eto> thansen : what does lspci | grep ATI say
[09:30] <eto> ?
[09:30] <danx> eto: glad to hear it
[09:31] <thansen> danx, it's based on rv740 http://www.notebookcheck.net/ATI-FirePro-M7740.18791.0.html  I don't see why it wouldn't work
[09:32] <titan_ark> anyone?
[09:33] <animanegra> close
[09:33] <eto> thansen : try the lspci if your card is not recognised by hw id you can't do really much about it
[09:34] <thansen> eto, it's recognized
[09:34] <danx> thansen: good, the "Mobility Radeon HD 4000 series" driver may work with your card; you can download it from Ati's drivers site
[09:35] <eto> thansen : good luck as i said i would try to use envy-ng to install the trywer and hope xorg-ati chain will recognise your card?
[09:35] <thansen> danx, I'm on 10.04..I can't download anything from their website because catalyst hasn't been released publicly yet
[09:35] <plustax_> Im having an issue. I plug in my thumb drive to usb, and 9.10 isnt recognizing it at all.
[09:35] <eto> *driver
[09:35] <plustax_> Any ideas?
[09:35] <thansen> but it's been handed to the ubuntu folks for whatever reason early
[09:36] <Xdept> Hey, Can anyone give me a hand with this, I'm running ubuntu 8.10 and im trying to upgrade to 9.04 using a disk, there are a few problems though. 1)It's a mac mini with a semi stuffed internal drive(Burn't Cd's Do not read) 2) for some reason it hates mounting ISO's 3) i got an external drive working but it wont let me install from an external drive 4) i'm on dial up
[09:36] <thansen> so I just need to know how to hack 'jockey' or whatever to make it think it's a supported card
[09:36] <danx> thansen: http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/linux/Pages/radeon_linux.aspx?type=2.4.2&product=2.4.2.3.32&lang=English (for 64-bits OS); although you should ask in #ubuntu+1 channel, 10.04 isn't stable yet.
[09:37] <v3rr3z> how come my desktop shortcuts dont have icons.. just blank white pages?
[09:37] <TG_tigger> Xdept - you have a live CD you are working with?
[09:37] <danx> thansen: I wouldn't trust 'jockey-gtk' in 10.04, it's not stable yet; download the driver from ati site (the one I linked you to); it's not hard to install
[09:37] <plustax_> Im having an issue. I plug in my thumb drive to usb, and 9.10 isnt recognizing it at all.
[09:37] <plustax_> Any ideas?
[09:37] <Xdept> Yes, but mac mini does not boot from external drives...
[09:38] <noaXess_netubu> any idea? the screen is flickering even on ubuntu start, before X is started?
[09:38] <thansen> danx, that doesn't support xorg 7.5 (which is the whole reason I'm trying this on ubuntu to begin with)
[09:38] <Xdept> @ TG_tigger
[09:38] <TG_tigger> Xdept - Will your minimac boot from a usb drive?
[09:38] <Xdept> No, It did boot once to Windows 7.
[09:39] <danx> thansen: I didn't know 10.04 will come with xorg 7.5; this is why you should be asking in #ubuntu+1 :P
[09:39] <Xdept> Is there anyway to install through 8.10
[09:39]  * thansen is now
[09:39] <TG_tigger> Xdept - what size and how full is your internal drive?
[09:40] <Xdept> 80GB 60GB Free
[09:40] <EmoKiller> hello
[09:41] <TG_tigger> Xdept - That should be more then enough room. Have you tried loading the OS onto the external drive you mentioned?
[09:41] <plustax_> Im having an issue. I plug in my thumb drive to usb, and 9.10 isnt recognizing it at all.
[09:42] <plustax_> Any ideas?
[09:42] <Xdept> TG_tigger, How do you mean ?
[09:42] <q_> anyone tried to boot from USB stick an Dell Inspiron 1501?
[09:43] <plustax_> q_ dont bother asking any questions here.
[09:43] <plustax_> Youll be repeating yourself for hours like I have
[09:43] <TG_tigger> Xdept - Sorry. Got y thoughts mixed up.
[09:43] <ceeney> lol
[09:43] <plustax_> and it will put your ability to remain polite and civil to the test.
[09:44] <TG_tigger> Xdept - have you tried downloading the OS to your minimac directly not set up for a live cd?
[09:44] <Xdept> How is that done ?
[09:45] <q_> plustax, thx
[09:46] <TG_tigger> Xdept - goto the Ubuntu website and look into the info they have there that would involve partitioning and installing Ubuntu in its own partition.
[09:46] <Xdept> I'm sure i had a good look through that
[09:47] <Xdept> Wait
[09:47] <Xdept> It is on it's own partition
[09:47] <TG_tigger> Xdept - this would probably setup a duel boot allowing you to choose your mac OS or Ubuntu
[09:47] <Xdept> It's not Dual Booted or anything
[09:47] <Xdept> At the moment it's Just running 8.10
[09:48] <Xdept> But i have the 9.10 and 9.04 discs and no internet.
[09:48] <Xdept> Well
[09:48] <Xdept> Dial up
[09:48] <iceroot> Xdept: ppc 9.04 and 9.10?
[09:48] <BusMaster> I have several laptops and I'd like to have access to my email from all of them. I'm paranoid about leaving my email on gmail, and have one computer which is usually online all the time. Is it possible to have a mail server on this machine which pulls in mail from all my web accounts and then serves it to the thunderbird clients on my laptops ?
[09:48] <Xdept> iceroot, No it's intel i686
[09:48] <technikfreak> yes
[09:48] <technikfreak> no problem
[09:48] <iceroot> Xdept: ah ok
[09:49] <TG_tigger> Xdept - OK. While running 8.10 goto your update manager and refresh it. This should tell you that 9.04 or even 10.x is available to download
[09:49] <iceroot> BusMaster: yes, its calling "fecthing mails"
[09:49] <BusMaster> iceroot, could you drop some more keywords so that I can google search and start reading? :)
[09:49] <Xdept> 9.04 is available to download
[09:49] <kevin_> sudo apt-get update
[09:49] <iceroot> BusMaster: fetchmail, postfix
[09:49] <ceeney> lol
[09:50] <kevin_> suck
[09:50] <ceeney> is ubuntu 9.04 a livecd?
[09:50] <iceroot> ceeney: yes
[09:50] <ceeney> thanks
[09:50] <TG_tigger> Xdept - choose to download 9.04. Your system should do what needs to be done for you.
[09:50] <iceroot> ceeney: but not the alternate/server-cd
[09:50] <BusMaster> iceroot, thanks
[09:50] <Xdept> TG_tigger, I can't download it though
[09:51] <Xdept> Will it install of CD ?
[09:51] <Xdept> *Off
[09:51] <iceroot> Xdept: you can upgrade from cd
[09:51] <Xdept> How
[09:51] <Xdept> Where
[09:51] <iceroot> !upgrade | Xdept
[09:51] <iceroot> Xdept: the 2. link
[09:51] <Xdept> It doesn't work
[09:51] <TG_tigger> Xdept - It should work of the CD you have. If not try burning a CD using a friends computer then running the new CD on your Minimac
[09:52] <Xdept> I have six computers and i burnt it on my best one at 4x speed
[09:52] <ceeney> i think... the offical ubuntu site is more friendly than before. i can see a 'download' icon now.
[09:54] <DonScott> Yeah the site is coming along nicely.
[09:54] <ardchoille> histo: From what I am seeing, webcams only work in empathy with gtalk.jabber protocols right now
[09:54] <TG_tigger> Xdept - Have you tried burning more then one copy from your best computer?
[09:55] <Kartagis> what can I use to convert an .avi to mp4v-es?
[09:55] <Xdept> Yeah, 9.04 and 9.10 don't work
[09:55] <seawolf12> hello
[09:55] <Xdept> Well, they do on my other computers
[09:55] <seawolf12> how to install libswscale-dev on ubuntu
[09:55] <TG_tigger> Xdept - you said that you use dial-up right?
[09:55] <seawolf12> i installed but it says that no package installed
[09:55] <seawolf12> please help me out
[09:55] <Xdept> TG_tigger, That's right
[09:55] <murlidhar> http://pastebin.com/Muz9CRcU can anyone tell me what is wrong in it ?
[09:56] <SmartSsa> Kartagis: ffmpeg or mencoder or vlc - but i don't have a how-to on hand :)
[09:56] <murlidhar> am not sure about window_rule .... so i wrote it like this.
[09:56] <TG_tigger> Xdept - What it might be is a glitch when downloading the cd to be burned. Is it possible to access a faster web connection long enough to burn another copy?
[09:57] <BusMaster> iceroot, so is it correct that I will need fetchmail to collect all my mail and I'll also need postfix to serve that email to the thunderbird clients on my laptops?
[09:57] <Xdept> My MAte downloaded it for me
[09:57] <Kartagis> SmartSsa, I have a mp4 that reads video/x-hx-avc1. can the ones you gave convert it to mp4v-es?
[09:57] <dwj> ....................
[09:57] <TG_tigger> Xdept - Could your mate have had the same problem?
[09:58] <Xdept> Not Likely, and it wouldn't happen to two downloads and stll work on four computers
[09:58] <svscvsc> Hej people, I am looking to configure snd-dummy in 9.04 - I have a problem with some deps since my last dpkg had a problem, so I can't install build-essential - is there a chance that snd-dummy can already be configd in 9.04?
[09:58] <Xdept> The Mac will take the machined Ubuntu discs
[09:58] <EmoKiller> did you burn a .iso disc?
[09:59] <EmoKiller> sorry, my englisch ist horrible
[09:59] <TG_tigger> Xdept - maybe you minimac is just a very cranky computer that does not want to be modified... :-)
[09:59] <ceeney> lol, evil apple
[09:59] <Xdept> Yeah, My thoughts exactly, i think i'll take it to my friends and just let it upgade all day
[10:00] <Xdept> OR i'll make a sata adapter for the internal dvd drive.... Sigh... More time...
[10:00] <SmartSsa> Kartagis: the three tools will convert most videos into any format as long as you have the codecs installed.  You'll have to look up some how-to's on how to do it exactly.
[10:00] <TG_tigger> Xdept - It could have an *accident* you know... Some sort of fatal error...
[10:00] <Xdept> TG_tigger, Lol, How do you mean ?
[10:00] <DonScott> I thought the Macmini was supposed to be a living room computer....
[10:00] <Xdept> It is
[10:00] <ceeney> accident?
[10:01] <Xdept> My Media Center....
[10:01] <Xdept> Kinda...
[10:01] <DonScott> yeah
[10:01] <Xdept> It fails without a tv tuner though
[10:01] <Xdept> They need inbuilt TV tuners
[10:01] <TG_tigger> Xdept - what I did with one of my old pcs... Had it encounter a large blunt object. Several times in quick succession.
[10:01] <Xdept> What will that achieve ?
[10:02] <TG_tigger> Xdept - satisfaction... ;-)
[10:02] <EmoKiller> Xdept you are already using ubuntu o.O
[10:02] <Xdept> 8.10
[10:02] <DonScott> yeah... i had a buddy that really wanted one but he said that it was too limited for what he wanted to do.
[10:02] <EmoKiller> where´s the problem?!
[10:02] <Xdept> I WANT 9.10 + SO i can use my 5.1 channel
[10:03] <ceeney> whick kind of 5.1?
[10:03] <Xdept> Surround Sound
[10:03] <EmoKiller> äääähm
[10:03] <ceeney> i meant, the chipset
[10:03] <Xdept> Uh
[10:03] <Xdept> Apple ?
[10:03] <Xdept> One sec
[10:03] <ceeney> lol
[10:03] <EmoKiller> ich bin zocken
[10:03] <Xdept> Sigma Tel ?
[10:03] <DigitalOSH> hello
[10:04] <DigitalOSH> can someone give me some help with an error I am encountering?
[10:04] <EmoKiller> are there games for ubuntu?
[10:04] <DigitalOSH> is there anyone active available here?
[10:04] <ceeney> it depends on whats your question
[10:04] <Xdept> I don't want to stay with 8.10 on a partially working Mac Mini
[10:04] <seawolf12> how to install libswscale for ffmpeg?
[10:04] <seawolf12> anybody
[10:05] <seawolf12> please tell me
[10:05] <gottto> you just tell the error here DigitalOSH
[10:05] <Xdept> I might just have to go with Arch Linux :)
[10:05] <DJones> DigitalOSH: Give some details of your problem, if there's somebody around with an answer they should be able to help
[10:05] <TG_tigger> :-)
[10:05] <DigitalOSH> I am encountering the following error: Error! Could not locate rt73.ko for module rt73-k2wrlz in the DKMS tree.
[10:05] <DigitalOSH> You must run a dkms build for kernel 2.6.31-14-generic (i686) first.
[10:06] <TG_tigger> good morning / good night to all...
[10:06] <svscvsc> Can we get apt-get to run with a flatter resource profile? Instead of caching all the downloaded files. Excellent for VPS systems
[10:06] <Xdept> Why is Ubuntu so out of Date ?
[10:06] <DigitalOSH> i am trying to install a modified driver for my USB wireless card
[10:07] <ceeney> 'out of date'?
[10:07] <DigitalOSH> I don't know how to 'run a dkms build for kernel * first'
[10:07] <DigitalOSH> if anyone can assistance for me please PM
[10:07] <Xdept> ceeney, Yeah, for example VLC, version 0.9.4 and it says i'm up to date
[10:07] <svscvsc> Xdept, which ubuntu version and which packages?
[10:07] <Xdept> Uh
[10:07] <ceeney> nobody can say 'out-of'date' before the netbsd
[10:07] <Xdept> An old one
[10:08] <ceeney> hahaha
[10:08] <svscvsc> Xdept, well, you are locked onto whatever packages were tied to that release. Go to a new Ubuntu. I had a lot of happiness that some key libs were updated
[10:08] <svscvsc> Means less stuff to think about
[10:09] <Xdept> svscvsc, Which leads to my other problem, not being able to upgrade 8.10
[10:09] <svscvsc> Why can't you do that?
[10:09] <DigitalOSH> can someone assist for me?
[10:09] <ceeney> why don't you just remove the old versions and install the lastest version?
[10:09] <Cryt1c> hi
[10:09] <DigitalOSH> im sorry my english not very good
[10:10] <Xdept> I've been explaining for the past twenty minutes, svscvsc

[10:16] <TG_tigger> cls
[10:16] <TG_tigger> oops
[10:17] <motaka2> hello is it possible  to have IE on ubuntu on a system  which windows is not installed yet?
[10:18] <TG_tigger> motaka2 - look up WINE
[10:18] <svscvsc> motaka2, I think there is an IE browser package someone has made, that packages it all up for you (and uses wine)
[10:19] <motaka2> svscvsc: that means i have to install windows along side with ubuntu and through wine i should run IE ?
[10:19] <Someguy771> I'm not getting any audio playing back in kaffeine can somebody help?
[10:20] <GreenT> motaka2, wine != windows, wine emulates the windows api and will allow you to run IE in that emulated environment, but to you it will look like any other application under ubuntu---mostly.
[10:20] <DaveG|> Hi, could anyone assist me with setting up the MySQL JDBC Driver on Ubuntu 9.10? I've installed the libmysql-java package and when try to use the com.mysql.jdbc.Driver class, it's never found.
[10:21] <DigitalOSH> ok I asked my question. is there any person here who can help me?
[10:21] <Utente_566> hello
[10:21] <GreenT> motaka2, is there any particular reason why you would want to run IE under ubuntu?
[10:21] <motaka2> GreenT: i dont like to install windows reall, there is no other browser on earth which simulates IE ?
[10:22] <overmind> motaka2: errrr.... firefox? opera?...
[10:22] <motaka2> GreenT: i am web developer, so i have test my pages under IE
[10:22] <zespri> This will add the newline at the end of file:
[10:22] <zespri> echo newline >> /filename
[10:22] <zespri> how do I add this same line at the begging of the file (in shell script)
[10:22] <Slart> DigitalOSH: if you don't get an answer you can repeat the question.. but wait at least 10 minutes before doing so.. use the time to improve the question, provide a good description of your problem, search the ubuntu forums etc
[10:22] <overmind> motaka2: Yes, IE works with wine
[10:22] <royrussell> motaka2 use a vm
[10:23] <GreenT> motaka2, for that purpose revert to virtualization (google vmware or virtualbox) and install whatever OS and browser you want
[10:23] <Slart> DigitalOSH: just writing "anyone?" or "Can someone answer my question?" will just make people annoyed... noone likes to scroll around trying to find the actual question
[10:24] <GreenT> motaka2, to "simulate" IE would not help you at all as a designer, you will need to test your pages in the real browser to know how they perform
[10:24] <SmartSsa> motaka2: use a VM with proper windows or your "testing" will be flawed. WINE+IE will not give you the same results as Windows+IE.
[10:24] <overmind> DigitalOSH: Install build-essentials
[10:24] <Utente_566> I have a problem
[10:24] <Utente_566> with ubuntu
[10:25] <motaka2> SmartSsa: GreenT : I hate hate hate hate windows
[10:25] <GreenT> motaka2, trust SmartSsa--- he's right.
[10:25] <DonScott> I like Google Chrome with Ubuntu.....but I don't think they can bundle it with it.
[10:25] <DigitalOSH> overmind: did that already.... sudo apt-get install build-essentials right?
[10:25] <SmartSsa> motaka2: so do I. But I'm also a web developer.
[10:25] <Utente_566> windows is the best operating system on the planet
[10:25] <xangua> motaka2: then don't make pages for IE :S
[10:25] <overmind> DigitalOSH: Yes, that's the command
[10:25] <Utente_566> W windows
[10:26] <xangua> DonScott: lubunto comes with chomium by defect
[10:26] <GreenT> motaka2, use windows professionally to test your code in a browser--- you don't have to love it for that.
[10:26] <zorrilla> hello
[10:26] <Utente_566> goodbye ;)
[10:27] <DigitalOSH> overmind: no luck with that
[10:27] <DigitalOSH> Slart: thank you
[10:27] <zorrilla> goodbye
[10:28] <overmind> DigitalOSH: What error gives you exactly?
[10:28] <GreenT> motaka2, for just checking the layout/css etc., try http://browsershots.org/
[10:28] <DigitalOSH> overmind: I am encountering the following error: Error! Could not locate rt73.ko for module rt73-k2wrlz in the DKMS tree. You must run a dkms build for kernel 2.6.31-14-generic (i686) first.
[10:28] <papul> can anyone give my gkrellm like app name?
[10:28] <papul> *me
[10:28] <affluenza> Hey guys. I need some help with Spotify. I updated Wine to run it and ever since then, it keeps setting my pc volume to mute when it changes tracks. It's getting kinda annoying. Anyone had the same problem?
[10:28] <papul> any other options like gkrellm
[10:28] <DaZ> papul: conky? :f
[10:29] <overmind> DigitalOSH: Pfff... no idea... sorry
[10:29] <xangua> affluenza: try to configure wine to use pulse audio
[10:29] <DigitalOSH> overmind: i did get an error when i tried to run install build-essentials... will that help?
[10:30] <overmind> DigitalOSH: What error?
[10:30] <papul> and where do i get ubuntu repo authentication keys?
[10:30] <tsyj2007> DigitalOSH: sudo apt-get install build-essentials
[10:30] <Kartagis> It seems your FFMPEG (libavcodec) installation lacks the following encoder:
[10:30] <Kartagis> MPEG AAC Audio. <--- how can I fix it?
[10:30] <papul> my brother removed them :/
[10:30] <zamboli> off topic?
[10:30] <DigitalOSH> overmind: its a big one. should i paste here on in private?
[10:30] <overmind> !paste | DigitalOSH
[10:31] <overmind> DigitalOSH: We've got pastebin :)
[10:31] <affluenza> xangua, my Wine doesn't have pulse audio. It's set to OSS Driver. The others are Jack Driver, NAS Driver, and EsounD Driver.
[10:31] <DigitalOSH> overmind: very smart! http://paste.ubuntu.com/405909/
[10:31] <SmartSsa> Kartagis: libfaac I think.
[10:32] <DaveG|> xangua: i find that if you use ALSA, it'll play through pulseaudio
[10:32] <DaveG|> xangua: that's what mine was set to by default
[10:32] <papul> DaZ: ok i tried conky but didnt like it much
[10:32] <mjwalker> are there any exam certificaions of ubuntu
[10:32] <Kartagis> SmartSsa, package could not be found :S
[10:32] <papul> DaZ: any other options?
[10:33] <overmind> DigitalOSH: dpkg –configure -a
[10:33] <DaZ> papul: plasmoids, screenlets
[10:33] <DigitalOSH> overmind: ill run that no
[10:33] <DigitalOSH> now*
[10:33] <DaZ> and simillar stuff.
[10:33] <overmind> DigitalOSH: And then "sudo apt-get install dpkg-dev"
[10:33] <SmartSsa> Kartagis: libfaac0 - it's in multiverse if you haven't enabled that.
[10:33] <macgerhard> I am using OS X terminal, how do I get 256 vim color schemes working when I ssh to a Ubuntu server?
[10:34] <DigitalOSH> overmind: when running dpkg –configure -a i get 'dpkg: need an action option'
[10:34] <overmind> DigitalOSH: Give me a sec
[10:34] <DigitalOSH> overmind: I appreciated very much
[10:35] <DaveG|> Hi, could anyone assist me with setting up the MySQL JDBC Driver on Ubuntu 9.10? I've installed the libmysql-java package and when try to use the com.mysql.jdbc.Driver class, it's never found. My classpath is set to :/usr/share/java/mysql.jar .
[10:35] <overmind> DigitalOSH: sudo apt-get -f install << Try this
[10:35] <FriGiN> mornin guys.
[10:35] <DigitalOSH> overmind: command ran successfully
[10:35] <overmind> DigitalOSH: Ah, I saw fail
[10:36] <DigitalOSH> overmind: sorry?
[10:36] <overmind> DigitalOSH: sudo dpkg  --configure -a -- << Use it too
[10:36] <DigitalOSH> overmind: running now
[10:36] <FriGiN> stupid question... just installed phpmyadmin.. having troubles with first login anyone got a min to poke a tired newbie?
[10:37] <overmind> DigitalOSH: Then try installing build-essential again :)
[10:37] <DigitalOSH> overmind: succesful also
[10:37] <SmartSsa> FriGiN: What's the issue?
[10:37] <DigitalOSH> overmind: same error from apt-get install build-essential
[10:38] <FriGiN> well im used to win php and having conf files and such.. im not seeing anything in /etc/phpmyadmin that i can config for password/username..
[10:38] <FriGiN> i know im missing something REALLY obvious.
[10:39] <SmartSsa> FriGiN: the default login is your mysql root password that you configured when installing mysql.
[10:40] <FriGiN> SmartSsa: thats what i thought.. but admin/pw isnt coming back as valid.
[10:40] <null> hello, can anyone help me? I am getting an grub_getcharwidth error
[10:40] <kwadronaut> I can't manage content plug-ins in firefox, nothing in the error console, created a new empty profile without extensions, still the same.
[10:40] <SmartSsa> FriGiN: is it the phpmyadmin logo/html login screen or your browser asking for a login?
[10:41] <overmind> DigitalOSH: Appears like you have some package broken, but with that commands they're aren't fixing
[10:41] <FriGiN> SmartSsa: yes. its giving err 1045 accessdenied for user admin 2localhost using pw yes
[10:41] <DigitalOSH> overmind: if i use synaptic is that oging to help?
[10:41] <overmind> DigitalOSH: Maybe try using "repair packages" in synaptic
[10:41] <overmind> DigitalOSH: Mark all for be repaired and click apply
[10:41] <SmartSsa> FriGiN: the default user is 'root' and whichever password you gave it when installing.
[10:42] <FriGiN> duh. see simple..
[10:42] <SmartSsa> FriGiN: I guess so :)
[10:42] <null> i have xubuntu installed on a macbook pro, and it drops to a grub recovery console
[10:42] <FriGiN> i TOLD you.. i was being retarded.
[10:42] <null> everytime i try to boot
[10:43] <DigitalOSH> overmind: ok trying now, will report back
[10:43] <FriGiN> SmartSsa thx a-bill.
[10:43] <abhi_nav> null, it is a fresh install?
[10:43] <null> yes
[10:43] <null> i've reinstalled about three times
[10:43] <abhi_nav> null, which version?
[10:43] <null> 9.04
[10:43] <null> x64
[10:43] <overmind> null: Is giving you any error?
[10:43] <abhi_nav> hmm
[10:43] <FriGiN> i was even look at the doc and i was seeing admin.. but it clearly said root..
[10:43] <pinoyskull> i updated my pidgin to 2.6.6, still i get the "Account locked:..." error
[10:44] <null> yes, it says grub_getcharwidth not found
[10:44] <null> and then drops to recovery
[10:44] <null> i double checked to make sure grub installed to /dev/sda3
[10:44] <null> both the 10.04 versions of xubuntu and regular ubuntu work
[10:44] <overmind> null: I recommend to you using 9.10, it uses grub2 by default
[10:45] <raj> anyone using asterisk here?
[10:45] <Gateway`> hello everybody, I would like to install a virtual machine. What package do you advise me to use ? vmware or what ? thanks :)
[10:45] <null> apologies, i meant to put 9.10
[10:45] <raj> hey hi abhi_nav
[10:45] <null> so grub2 is throwing that error
[10:45] <raj> nice to c u here again :)
[10:46] <abhi_nav> hi raj
[10:46] <abhi_nav> raj are you sure you are looking for me and not for abhinav? we both are different
[10:46] <raj> so whts the task for today? wht u troubleshootin?
[10:46] <abhi_nav> raj ;) ;) ;)
[10:46] <DigitalOSH> overmind: did that but i think i mad a big mistake
[10:46] <erUSUL> !vbox | Gateway`
[10:47] <raj> hehe no m lookin for abhi_nav
[10:47] <overmind> DigitalOSH: What happened?
[10:47] <abhi_nav> raj: for me? I dont remember to talk before.
[10:47] <DigitalOSH> overmind: a ton of stuff was removed. Now when I run DKMS command it says 'sude: dkms: command not found'
[10:47] <null> i'm not sure what the difference between the grub for 10.04 and 9.10 is
[10:47] <knoppies> When Im using my laptop (ubuntu 9.10) it keeps freezing, then starting as if it just booted up (loads the GDM then asks me to login). I think the GDM is crashing. It started very seldom, but now its just done it 4 times in 5 mins (I was trying to copy music from an NTFS partition on the machine).
[10:47] <overmind> DigitalOSH: sude instead of sudo?
[10:47] <knoppies> got any ideas as to whats happening? anything I should look for to try fix it?
[10:47] <null> but i am currently on xubuntu live cd, trying to get grub to boot properly
[10:48] <raj> thts nt good :( u 4gt me.. are yaar asterisk guy.. i guess nw u cn rmmbr
[10:48] <abhi_nav> null give a try in #xubuntu
[10:48] <DigitalOSH> overmind: sorry that was a mistype but it didnt work with sudo
[10:48] <abhi_nav> raj: what is 'cn rmmbr' ?
[10:48] <null> already tried #xubuntu
[10:48] <overmind> DigitalOSH: Then try installing again with synaptic
[10:48] <DigitalOSH> installing DKMS?
[10:48] <raj> let it b.. i also 'll try to 4gt u next time :-/
[10:48] <null> they sent me here
[10:48] <abhi_nav> raj: ohh yah now i remember. I asked you asbout what is asterisk. yah sorry I remember now.
[10:49] <abhi_nav> raj: no pleased ont hohhh so sorryy
[10:49] <raj> thank god..!!
[10:49] <overmind> DigitalOSH: yes
[10:49] <abhi_nav> !in | raj
[10:49] <null> so what i've done so far is mount /dev/sda3 to /mnt, mount --bind /dev to /mnt/dev
[10:49] <DigitalOSH> overmind: searched DKMS in synaptic, no result
[10:49] <null> then chroot /mnt
[10:49] <null> then apt-get update grub-pc
[10:49] <null> but that hasn't worked
[10:50] <raj> whts going on here in channel? i think m late .. nt gtng on which thing these guys tryin
[10:50] <abhi_nav> null try reinstalling grub from live cd. you have live cd?
[10:50] <overmind> DigitalOSH: https://launchpad.net/dkms << Download from here
[10:50] <null> i'm running on live cd now
[10:50] <abhi_nav> raj: hmm null is trying to get grub working. try helping if you can
[10:51] <null> i've reinstalled about three times, each time specifically telling grub to install to /dev/sda3
[10:51] <raj> ohh k le'me undrstnd the situation first.. :)
[10:51] <null> ok here it goes:
[10:51] <chiiiiiz> Hi How can I reset or re-install the printing functions... I have a network printer... detected (When I scan on the printer, it is stored on my computer)... but when I start to print 1 page, I have 100s of blank sheets... until the printer is out of paper
[10:52] <null> installed xubuntu x64 on macbook pro /dev/sda3 three times, each with grub installed on /dev/sda3
[10:52] <null> but grub throws grub_getcharwidth error
[10:52] <DigitalOSH> overmind: i clearly really screwed up. I got this: tmp/dkms_2.1.0.1.orig.tar.gz could not be opened, because the associated helper application does not exist. Change the association in your preferences.
[10:52] <null> and drops to grub recovery
[10:52] <DigitalOSH> overmind: I lost important applications
[10:52] <null> where i can ls the device and partitions
[10:52] <ubuntu_> ouch
[10:53] <null> and even folders
[10:53] <null> i can set the kernel to /vmlinuz
[10:53] <null> but when i type boot, it says: no kernel loaded
[10:53] <ceeney> well, i have a small question...
[10:53] <null> 10.04 works, but not 9.10
[10:54] <ceeney> why ubuntu 9.10 doesn't have a irc client by default?
[10:54] <ipconfig> what is a convenient folder to install an app to? the home folder? or somewhere else?
[10:54] <overmind> DigitalOSH: Wait, I'll tell you the name of that app
[10:54] <om26er> ceeney, it does and its called empathy :)
[10:54] <ceeney> it sucks
[10:54] <null> so I'm not sure what else to do
[10:54] <om26er> ceeney, well then install xchat or others
[10:54] <abhi_nav> raj: :)
[10:54] <DigitalOSH> overmind: thanks. I feel like I am wasting your time
[10:54] <DonScott> it has empathy but it doesn't work too well with irc
[10:55] <ceeney> it just tell me to use a special service something, not irc
[10:55] <Wren88> I'm thinking about giving up on ubuntu here since its locks up keyboard/mouse when get to gui login screen ..
[10:55] <null> does that make sense?
[10:55] <knoppies> Wren88, laptop?
[10:55] <ceeney> i have to download irssi manually
[10:55] <Wren88> nou, tower server with Asus Mobo
[10:56] <overmind> DigitalOSH: You are not wasting my time :) don't worry about it; install app-install-data-partner and app-install-data
[10:56] <raj> ya wht abhi_nav? are yaar actually m suffering with my asterisk.. trying to find smone who can help me in troubleshooting.. i think m suffering with this frm last 2 weeks :'(
[10:56] <null> Is there anyone who can help me with my grub errors?
[10:56] <ceeney> ubuntu is big...600+ mb, and doesn't have a irc client... but pclinuxos has one
[10:56] <abhi_nav> ohhh so sad raj :'(
[10:56] <indus> null, i can
[10:56] <abhi_nav> raj: try in #linux
[10:57] <raj> k thanks .. :)
[10:57] <DigitalOSH> overmind: it says both are already newest version
[10:57] <Wren88> back to windows i guess
[10:58] <DigitalOSH> overmind: figured it out
[10:58] <DigitalOSH> overmind: i untarred and then did sudo make install
[10:58] <cadefy> ?DCC SEND "ff???f?" 0 0 0
[10:59] <DigitalOSH> overmind: dkms is now a working command again
[10:59] <FloodBot1> NOTICE - The above was an exploit attempt that may have disconnected some users. Please ignore it, or type « /msg ubottu exploit » for more information.
[10:59] <overmind> DigitalOSH: perfect :)

[10:59] <DigitalOSH> overmind: we are back to first square though, dkms still making same error
[11:00] <knoppies> a good program to convert m4a (and/or mp4) to mp3?
[11:01] <overmind> DigitalOSH: I'll keep and eye to my synaptic, and I'll see if I have any dependence of that
[11:01] <DigitalOSH> overmind: ok thanks!
[11:01] <null> can anyone help me with my grub error?
[11:01] <indus> null, hi
[11:01] <indus> null, so what is your grub issue
[11:02] <overmind> DigitalOSH: sudo apt-get install dpkg-dev
[11:02] <null> indus: i think i opened a window to chat with you directly, did you get it?
[11:02] <DigitalOSH> overmind: Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
[11:02] <DigitalOSH> requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
[11:02] <Gary> 1
[11:02] <DigitalOSH> distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
[11:02] <DigitalOSH> or been moved out of Incoming.
[11:02] <FloodBot2> DigitalOSH: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[11:02] <DigitalOSH> The following information may help to resolve the situation:
[11:02] <DigitalOSH> The following packages have unmet dependencies:
[11:03] <null> nvm the window. i'm getting a grub_getcharwidth error, which drops me into grub recovery
[11:03] <overmind> DigitalOSH: You need to have this packages: module-init-tolls gcc make build-essentian and dpkg.dev
[11:03] <DigitalOSH> overmind: what do i need?
[11:03] <overmind> DigitalOSH: I haven't read sorry, bot quieted you due to flood; paste in pastebin please
[11:03] <DigitalOSH> overmind: or should i say, how do i get that
[11:04] <DigitalOSH> overmind: sorry about that. here is pastebin: http://paste.ubuntu.com/405922/
[11:05] <ardchoille> Where does empathy save conversations? I can't seem to delete old conversations
[11:06] <overmind> DigitalOSH: It seems you are using old/new repositories, and that packages aren't avaiable
[11:08] <DigitalOSH> overmind: so i need to upgrade my repo list?
[11:08] <DonScott> yup
[11:09] <overmind> DigitalOSH: I think yes; go to software sources, and in first tab, enable all options; except last one (code), that's unnecesary
[11:09] <overmind> DigitalOSH: If it doesn't work, you'll need surelly other repos
[11:10] <DigitalOSH> overmind: where do i do this?
[11:10] <overmind> DigitalOSH: And I recommend you using "main server"
[11:10] <overmind> DigitalOSH: System >> Administration >> Software sources >> Ubuntu software
[11:10] <FunkyWeasel> Good morning - my main pc died so I dug out an old box with heron on it - is it possible to upgrade straight to karmic?
[11:10] <FunkyWeasel> I'd rather not do a clean install if possible
[11:11] <DigitalOSH> overmind: did that, none were checked, all checked now. now what?
[11:11] <DigitalOSH> overmind: dpkg-dev installing!
[11:12] <overmind> DigitalOSH: Cool, that was problem, you'll needed enabling that :)
[11:12] <FunkyWeasel> Hmm, or I could go to lucy...
[11:13] <DigitalOSH> overmind: ok! did that, but error is still the same
[11:13] <overmind> DigitalOSH: Try installing build-essentials and check if it works
[11:14] <DigitalOSH> overmind: noting upgraded when i did sudo apt-get install build-essentials
[11:15] <overmind> DigitalOSH: Install from synaptic >> dpkg perl5
[11:15] <lenswipe> how do i enable curl support on ubutntu?
[11:15] <overmind> DigitalOSH: and perl-modules
[11:15] <overmind> !curl | lenswipe
[11:15] <lenswipe> overmind, ....
[11:15] <overmind> lenswipe: ubottu doesn't know anything...
[11:15] <DigitalOSH> overmind: dpkg perl5 doesn't exist
[11:16] <lenswipe> overmind, evidently
[11:16] <overmind> DigitalOSH: Depends: perl5
[11:16] <e3a17> youngistan ka wow
[11:16] <overmind> DigitalOSH: Well, you need it, maybe from other repo or from official web? or launchpad or getdeb
[11:16] <DigitalOSH> overmind: quick search of perl5 reveals no package with that name
[11:17] <joaopinto> current ubuntu's perl is perl5
[11:17] <joaopinto> "This is perl, v5.10.1 (*) built for i486-linux-gnu-thread-multi"
[11:18] <FunkyWeasel> Ahah, fiddle with software sources to upgrade to either LTS or non-LTS distros!  Nice one.
[11:18] <e3a17> Practical Extraction and Report Language
[11:19] <e3a17> when is the ubuntu 10.4 releasing
[11:19] <lenswipe> how do i enable curl support on ubutntu?

[11:19] <DigitalOSH> overmind: installed perl
[11:19] <e3a17> where i can get beta version of ubuntu 10.4
[11:20] <overmind> e3a17: Click in link
[11:20] <DigitalOSH> overmind: still getting the DKMS error
[11:20] <DigitalOSH> overmind: this is driving crazy!
[11:20] <overmind> DigitalOSH: pfff, I haven't got any idea :S
[11:21] <DigitalOSH> overmind: the error is Error! Could not locate rt73.ko for module rt73-k2wrlz in the DKMS tree.You must run a dkms build for kernel 2.6.31-14-generic (i686) first.
[11:22] <overmind> DigitalOSH: I'm sorry, but I don't know how to fix it :(
[11:22] <DigitalOSH> overmind: no problem, thank you so very much, you have been very helpful :)
[11:22] <overmind> DigitalOSH: What's you main language?
[11:22] <DigitalOSH> overmind: dutch
[11:23] <overmind> DigitalOSH: Maybe try in #ubuntu-nl :)

[11:29] <lcpfnvc> hi all
[11:29] <lcpfnvc> when I do a su mysql
[11:29] <lfuser-328> I am a windows user
[11:29] <lfuser-328> and I hate it
[11:29] <lenswipe> joaopinto, now apache just crashed
[11:29] <joaopinto> lcpfnvc, you shouldn't su mysql
[11:29] <lcpfnvc> I get my root prompt back and not the mysql user
[11:29] <lenswipe> nvm
[11:29] <lcpfnvc> any ideas on this?
[11:29] <lfuser-328> I have been thinking of changing over to ubuntu
[11:29] <joaopinto> lcpfnvc, you are not expected to switch to mysql, it's a service user
[11:29] <lenswipe> joaopinto, thats it
[11:29] <hendry> i am supporting a collegue's ubuntu machine. It seems like he's nuked /boot accidentally
[11:29] <lcpfnvc> joaopinto, How can I change my mysql root password
[11:30] <hendry> any suggestions how to revert /boot?
[11:30] <lfuser-328> if I partition my harddrive could I access my music from my windows partition from linux
[11:30] <lcpfnvc> root@woodville:~# mysql -u root -p
[11:30] <lcpfnvc> Enter password:
[11:30] <lcpfnvc> ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: YES)
[11:30] <lcpfnvc> with the correct password
[11:30] <lfuser-328> without copying it to my linux partition, just play it from my linux partition
[11:30] <lcpfnvc> keeps telling my access denied
[11:30] <lcpfnvc> google not very help full
[11:30] <lcpfnvc> tried most of the methods I could find
[11:30] <addisaden> sudo?
[11:31] <lfuser-328> can you listen to music from a windows partition from linux
[11:31] <lenswipe> lcpfnvc, have you tried this? http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/mysql-change-root-password/
[11:31] <lenswipe> lfuser-328, yes! :D
[11:32] <lfuser-328> does it work well?
[11:32] <lenswipe> lfuser-328, ubuntu can read NTFS partitions
[11:32] <lfuser-328> awesome
[11:32] <lenswipe> lfuser-328, it works for me
[11:32] <lfuser-328> that makes things way more simple
[11:32] <lenswipe> linux in general can read NTFS
[11:32] <jeffesquivel> hi, anyone knows how to add applets to the panel from the command line?
[11:32] <lfuser-328> I don't have to transfer all my music

[11:32] <lenswipe> and its reading and writing to it quite happyly
[11:32] <lfuser-328> awesome

[11:33] <geoffmcc> having trouble with fail2ban can anyone help. I have sent to block after 3 and it doesnt do it till 8-14. Does fail2ban just not work well when you are using a local ip or is my problem elsewhere
[11:33] <lenswipe> lcpfnvc, hmm, have you tried asking #mysql? they tend to be quite helpful
[11:34] <lenswipe> lcpfnvc, ask them how to reset a forgotten mysql root password
[11:34] <indus> anyone know of fan speed control in ubuntu
[11:34] <Jimi_Neutral> Hi all, can someone help me with pureFTP permissions problem please. I can download from the server but I cannot upload to it
[11:34] <lcpfnvc> lenswipe, ok... pass not forgotten since I wrote it down.... :P
[11:34] <lenswipe> lcpfnvc, i know, but you need to reset the root password
[11:34] <lenswipe> and the current root password wont let you login
[11:35] <lenswipe> so its all the same really
[11:35] <lcpfnvc> lenswipe, lol so it would seem ... ta for info
[11:35] <geoffmcc> no fail2ban users
[11:35] <lenswipe> np
[11:35] <lenswipe> geoffmcc, yeah i use it
[11:35] <lenswipe> geoffmcc, awesome isnt it
[11:36] <lenswipe> geoffmcc, i never had to configure mine
[11:36] <geoffmcc> having problems, doesnt block when it should- have set to block after 3 and it takes 8 attempts sometimes more before it does
[11:37] <jeffesquivel> indus, fan control on a dell laptop?
[11:38] <Richiie> Hello i have a question about compiling and make an install from an tar.gz file, i ran ./configure waited untill all parameters were loaded then i ran make waited some minutes and then make install but how do i start this program? its an Neo Geo emulator called advanced mame
[11:38] <Vladimir[LV]> Hello! I have installed ProFTPd with MySQL backend. Everything is ok. FTP server is running by "ftpuser" user. All files permissions is set to ftpuser:ftpgroup and chmod 775. But i still cant upload or change files: 550 permission denied! :(
[11:41] <lcpfnvc> lol people on mysql very quiet
[11:41] <lcpfnvc> lenswipe,  I followed these instructions http://www.howtoforge.com/reset-forgotten-mysql-root-password
[11:41] <lcpfnvc> lenswipe, still no joy
[11:42] <lenswipe> lcpfnvc, did you ask the people in #mysql?
[11:44] <nicodarious> hello.  is anyone online at this time?
[11:44] <quibbler> !ask | nicodarious
[11:45] <nicodarious> lol.  was just wondering if anyone was online or not.
[11:45] <nicodarious> but since the question thing did arise, I am having a bit of difficulty with Grub2
[11:45] <quibbler> nicodarious, about 1300+
[11:45] <nicodarious> ohhh..  wasn't sure what time it was in the states.  been a couple years since i was last back there.
[11:46] <nicodarious> off course, that cant' be right for you.  you can't be int he stats.
[11:46] <nicodarious> states
[11:46] <nicodarious> odd.  i don't know.  too tired to think atm
[11:47] <nicodarious> anyway, i'm just an idiot when it comes to timezones, heh.
[11:48] <miha> i managed to 'remove' all columns in evolution for one inbox... what to do... remove all evolution settings???
[11:48] <miha> 'best fit' does nothing
[11:48] <miha> lame
[11:48] <nicodarious> anyway, on with the Grub2 problem though.  is there a way to make Grub2 use drive names instead of UUID codes?  I have dd'ed one internal hard drive to another (sda and sdb), but the UUID codes were copied over also (so two exact copies of same drive).  I need Grub to know to use sda and not sdb
[11:50] <Richiie> Hello i have a question about compiling and make an install  from an tar.gz file, i ran ./configure waited untill all  parameters were loaded then i ran make waited some minutes and  then make install but how do i start this program? its an Neo  Geo emulator called advanced mame
[11:50] <nicodarious> I'm so used to only using Grub, Grub2 is completely new to me.  setting up a two-drive system for the parents 6000 miles away, so no way for tech support besides the occassional ssh into the PC to make sure everyting is working right.
[11:50] <dogmatic69> hi all
[11:51] <erUSUL> !grub2 | nicodarious
[11:51] <nicodarious> richdel, did you do the full ./cofigure , make , make install , then find where it was installed at by issuing 'whereis %programname%?
[11:52] <miha> i managed to 'remove' all columns in evolution for one inbox... what to do... remove all evolution settings??? even when i remove account and add it again settign remain screwed.. who programmed this?? :D
[11:52] <nicodarious> miha, check the .evolution folder in your home directory.  all your settings are saved there.
[11:52] <vick> What is the file that gdm configuration is saved in ? I tried /etc/init/gdm.conf but it doesn't seem to be what i am looking for... i am talking about the one which has for example [daemon] KillInitsClients=false etc..
[11:53] <miha> nicodarious i just wanted to change sorting of date to desc
[11:53] <miha> i managed to 'drag' it
[11:53] <miha> what a bunch of bull
[11:53] <dogmatic69> i am trying to get dual monitors worrking on ubuntu 9.04 running nVidia 9800gt and 2x samsung 23" monitors, i followed this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=221174 and then tried all the different methods
[11:53] <miha> and there's no gui option for 'default columns'
[11:54] <LrdMtrod> I hate Ubuntu, I hate how it does not install all dev package as I install the application
[11:54] <miha> LrdMtrod !!! :D
[11:54] <LrdMtrod> It took me two days to figure this out, YAAARGH, lost time
[11:54] <nicodarious> miha, i take back the last, check under .gconf/evolution/ and I think that's where your setting are.  if you mv  that folder somewhere safe (for backup purposed) and rerun evolution, the default settings should be back.
[11:54] <miha> and build-essential should be like mandatory
[11:54] <miha> nicodarious thx... when i'm ready to re-add all mailboxes i will
[11:54] <dogmatic69> TwinView seemed to do nothing and no luck with the others, anyone have any ideas
[11:54] <miha> or perhaps i'll just install thunderbird
[11:55] <dogmatic69> i also tried to install the drivers from the site
[11:55] <dogmatic69> *nVidia site
[11:56] <nicodarious> miha, actually, your addressbook and such should be under the .evolution folder, so should be safe.  like i said, just either rename the .gconf/evolution folder to something like 'evolution-bak' so if it loses your prescious data, all you have to do is delete the new /evolution foler in .gconf/ folder and rename the -bak folder to the original and you'll be safe.
[11:59] <Vladimir[LV]> Hello! I have installed ProFTPd with MySQL backend. Everything is ok. FTP server is running by "ftpuser" user. All files permissions is set to ftpuser:ftpgroup and chmod 775. But i still cant upload or change files: 550 permission denied! :(
[12:00] <crawler> i need help with a batch script please.  http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/405937/  i'm trying to set display resolution to 800x600, launch this game, and when the game is closed, reset display resolution.  whn i sh that script, it works, but when i close the game, it doesn't reset.  any suggestions?
[12:01] <alex_kocharin> maybe the game dont return zero code?
[12:01] <Richiie> Hello i have a question about compiling and make an install  from an tar.gz file, i ran ./configure waited untill all  parameters were loaded then i ran make waited some minutes and  then make install but how do i start this program? its an Neo  Geo emulator called advanced mame
[12:01] <alex_kocharin> try to remove '&&' at the end of 4th line
[12:03] <crawler> alex_kocharin: thanks, ill try that
[12:03] <alex_kocharin> Richiie: see output of "make install". That command installs something to /bin or to /usr/bin...
[12:04] <crawler> alex_kocharin: thanks, remove the && worked.  i don't know why i added it to begin with (still learning the shell scripting)
[12:05] <Richiie> alex_kocharin: the output of make install is.
[12:05] <Dr_Willis> Richiie:  look in the source dir. see what binaries it made..  when you did a make install also watch to see what itinstalled in various 'bin' directories
[12:06] <Richiie> Dr_Willis: yes i see a lot of stuff installed in various usr/bin folders
[12:06] <Dr_Willis> Richiie:  and mame is in the repos.  i last used 'advancedmame' years ago. normal mame in the repos can play neogo games also.
[12:06] <Richiie> Dr_Willis: well i got problems whit "normal mame" cuz it wont load my neo Geo roms
[12:06] <Dr_Willis> Richiie:  install mame from the repos and some front ends to it..   Or check out the docs for what you installed
[12:07] <Richiie> get a lot of errors think i dont have bios files to it but anyway my Advance mame is installed
[12:07] <Dr_Willis> Richiie:  then you got some issue with the roms i imagine. It works with them here.
[12:07] <Richiie> but how do i boot / start it ? :S
[12:07] <Richiie> Dr_Willis: Docs ?,
[12:07] <mawst> RichiH: Make sure you have the neogeo bios rom in the correct place.
[12:07] <Dr_Willis> neogeo games i recall need a negorom.zip in the roms dir.
[12:07] <Richiie> mawst: and where is the correct place for neo geo bios rom in Mame from the Repo ?
[12:07] <Dr_Willis> Richiie:  yes. mame and advancedmame both have homepages with more docs  then you can imagine
[12:08] <Dr_Willis> mame and advancedmame also have conffig files to defind where the roms go.
[12:08] <mawst> Not sure off the top of my head RichiH, but like Dr_Willis said
[12:08] <Dr_Willis> The front ends to mame also let you define where to look
[12:10] <Richiie> mawst: do you have any idea where Neo Geo BIOS should be in the Mame emulator that is in ubuntu repo ?
[12:10] <lundh> hi
[12:11] <mawst> RichiH: wherever your roms are I would imagine
[12:11] <Richiie> i have downloaded the bios files, but dont know where to put them, thats why i wanted to try out the advanced mame i downloaded in tar.gz the problem is that i cant start it i know its installed
[12:11] <Dr_Willis> Richiie:  it goes with the other mame roms in the roms dir
[12:11] <Dr_Willis> Richiie:   and the command for advancedmame is proberly 'advancedmame'
[12:12] <lundh> I'm trying to install ruby and rails on ubuntu and the installation seems to work but ruby does stil not seems to find rack. Do I have to set a special path to get everything working?
[12:12] <Dr_Willis> Richiie:  look in the source dirs to see what binaries it made
[12:12] <Richiie> Dr_Willis: nope nothing happens when i type advancedmame in the terminal
[12:12] <Dr_Willis> advancemame is also a bit old.
[12:12] <Richiie> command not found
[12:13] <Richiie> Dr_Willis: ok i have another question, lets erase advancedmame, how should i do if i started whit ./configure and then make make install
[12:13] <Dr_Willis> i would suggest reading the advancemame docs at the programs sourceforge homepage.
[12:13] <Dr_Willis> 'sudo make uninstall' from the source dir
[12:13] <Richiie> Dr_Willis: nah dont bother whit advanced mame gonna try the one from the repo got that installed to
[12:14] <Richiie> Dr_Willis: rmdir /usr/local/share/advance/rom
[12:14] <Richiie> rmdir /usr/local/share/advance/sample
[12:14] <Richiie> rmdir /usr/local/share/advance/artwork
[12:14] <Richiie> rmdir /usr/local/share/advance/image

[12:14] <FloodBot2> Richiie: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[12:14] <Richiie> rmdir /usr/local/share/advance
[12:14] <Richiie> ok sorry wont flood, just wanted help
[12:15] <Richiie> Dr_Willis: did u see what i pasted, Rmdir many /usr local files
[12:15] <Richiie> hope thats all for uninstalling, the stuff that was installed, i really suck on compiling and that really unsure thats why im asking
[12:15] <Dr_Willis> Richiie:  and what am i supposed to do with the info?
[12:16] <Dr_Willis> it deleted stuff.. yes
[12:16] <Dr_Willis> and the binaries would of been in /usr/local/bin/*  i imagine . you could of ran it from there
[12:17] <visof> hello in my laptop the wired connection suddenly don't work , and i have got device not managed in the networkmanager , my Ethernet card is Broadcom , in Dell laptop
[12:17] <ravibn> How to list the devices and the current driver it is using?
[12:17] <visof> what should i do ?
[12:17] <Richiie> Dr_Willis: thanks for your time and help, gonna check out the Gmameui and Gxmame that is in the Repo :)
[12:18] <Richiie> all files from /usr/local/share "advanced" = Advancedmame are removed so np
[12:18] <Dr_Willis> there was no real need to remove them
[12:18] <Richiie> Dr_Willis: well yeah maybe ur right but i dont like to have rubbish lying around on my harddrive :P
[12:18] <ravibn> Hi! How to list the devices and the current driver it is using?
[12:19] <visof> ravibn try lshw
[12:19] <gottto> sudo lshw tells more
[12:20] <RichiH> mawst: Richiie != RichiH ;)
[12:20] <slacker_nl> !screen captures
[12:21] <ravibn> visof : If I need to re-install a driver for a device How do I go abt doing that?
[12:21] <abhi_nav> raj you there?
[12:21] <mawst> sorry
[12:21] <mawst> :D
[12:22] <Dr_Willis> ravibn:  what 'driver' are you trying to reinstall?
[12:23] <ravibn> Dr_Willis: my graphics card is on the motherboard and intel does give some RPM pkgs to install
[12:24] <Dr_Willis> ravibn:   intel drives should allredy be incliuded for the most part
[12:25] <Dr_Willis> you dont want those rpms i imagine
[12:25] <Dr_Willis> !intel
[12:25] <Dr_Willis> ive never had to install any extra drivers for my intel video on my netbook at least.
[12:25] <schlaftier> Is there a way to change the icon an application (e.g. quodlibet) puts in the tray only for a specific user, i.e. without changing the corresponding file in /usr/share/pixmaps?
[12:26] <ravibn> Dr_willis : Ubuntu never asked for any drivers when I installed this Karmic 9.10 So I am little concerned abt its working accurately
[12:26] <over_soul> Hi all. Can someone help me? I need to enable oss driver for my soundcard - it's installed, but I can't make it work
[12:27] <fasta> How do I make my machine pick up day light saving time without ntp?
[12:27] <Dr_Willis> ravibn:  its never asked here.. as i said they are built in for intel for the most part
[12:27] <fasta> I think a firewall blocks ntp on this network.
[12:28] <over_soul> Actually, it doesn't show it in the hardware section on my sound preferences
[12:29] <ravibn> Dr_willis : I did that lshw and in the list it seems to hv picked and installed the right driver for this installation
[12:29] <gottto> ravibn: I just got an updated intel driver in tar.bz2 form from http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg/2009-October/047859.html
[12:29] <ddavids> hi all
[12:29] <whitez0mbie> i messed around with pySDM and am now unable to boot into ubutnu due to permisions. is there a way i can alter ther permissions from another OS?
[12:29] <ravibn> Dr_willis : Please tell me otherwise in case if I hv to change any driver for any device where and how I need to do?
[12:30] <dogmatic69> could someone help me with screen setup stuff. i managed to get the nvidia drivers working and trying to enable "x screen" but cant save the config file, it keeps having issues with the .backup
[12:30] <ddavids> pls how may i get the bluetooth icon on the panel...? i have activated it but there's no icon to start transfers with...
[12:30] <gottto> ravibn: how to build the driver http://intellinuxgraphics.org/install.html
[12:32] <Dr_Willis> ravibn:  ive never heeded to do anything to use intel on my intel based laptops
[12:32] <coolboxx> does anyone know how do set local to eg. en.usa.iso.... on ubuntu?

[12:32] <Dr_Willis> ravibn:  about the only issue you mayhave is with some intel video chipsets/drivers may be a little outof date.
[12:33] <dogmatic69> anyone have any tips for me?
[12:33] <over_soul> How can I make an active driver to actually work?
[12:33] <Dr_Willis> dogmatic69:  run the nvidiasettings tool as root. and save the xorg.conf to  some place in your home dir  then copy it to /etc/X11/
[12:33] <omikron4> modprobe and de name o driver
[12:34] <omikron4> modprobe (driver name)
[12:34] <dogmatic69> Dr_Willis:

[12:35] <sipior> fasta: ntp isn't generally used for adjusting to daylight savings time. your time zone information is probably incorrect. is /etc/localtime a symbolic link on your system?

[12:42] <lundh> erUSUL: :p
[12:42] <dogmatic69> Dr_Willis: i saved it to the desktop and used sudo cp xrog.conf etc/X11.xrog.conf and there is nothing happing, no errors no prompt for password
[12:42] <dogmatic69> is that correct
[12:43] <indus> jeffesquivel, fan control on a desktop
[12:43] <indus> jeffesquivel, sorry, was away from my machine saw late
[12:43] <erUSUL> dogmatic69: is "sudo cp xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf"
[12:44] <lundh> next question. where do I hedit the path for all users?
[12:44] <dogmatic69> erUSUL: i did sudo cp /home/dogmatic/Desktop/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf and tried yours
[12:44] <dogmatic69> both the same
[12:44] <lundh> *next question. where do I edit the path for all users?
[12:44] <erUSUL> dogmatic69: given you are in the same directory xorg.conf is
[12:44] <jordi_> HOLA
[12:45] <jeffesquivel> indus, well... I know there is a package called i8kutils but it works on laptops
[12:45] <jordi_> hola
[12:45] <lundh> /etc/bash.bashrc ?
[12:45] <omikron4> over_soul i u wanna know the name of your soundcard type lspci or dmesg. you'll get a list of drivers
[12:45] <jordi_> es en castellano?
[12:45] <jeffesquivel> indus, specifically, dell laptops
[12:45] <erUSUL> dogmatic69: ok; sudo saves the pasword for a certain amount of time so you do not have to retype it
[12:45] <jeffesquivel> indus, but YMMV
[12:45] <dogmatic69> erUSUL:  well ~/Desktop/file.etx gave  /home/dogmatic/Desktop/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[12:45] <erUSUL> !es | jordi_
[12:45] <indus> jeffesquivel, i am not controlling it with commadn sudo pwmconfig its working ok
[12:45] <indus> jeffesquivel, iam now*
[12:45] <over_soul> thanks again, omikron4 :)
[12:46] <dogmatic69> erUSUL: i think its working thanks, without sudo there is errors
[12:46] <fasta> sipior, no, it is not.
[12:46] <dogmatic69> how can i test without restarting? kill gdm
[12:46] <Dr_Willis> the nvidia-settings tool has an issue where it tries to update the xorg.conf file.. IF the xorg.conf file dosent exist. In the past ive ran nvidia-settings as root, and confiured things, then saved teh xorg.conf to the users home. Then copied it to /etc/X11, then restarted X
[12:46] <frxstrem> when I've installed Xubuntu with "sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop" and then removing it the same way, will all the programs that was installed with it be uninstalled too?
[12:46] <Dr_Willis> dogmatic69:  use 'sudo service gdm restart' is one way
[12:46] <fasta> sipior, Gnome shows the right location, however.
[12:47] <sipior> fasta: it should have been adjusted automatically. could you pastebin the output of "zdump -c 2011 -v /etc/localtime | grep 2010"?
[12:48] <fasta> sipior, http://paste.debian.net/66440/
[12:48] <coachj> i have a questions about video driver in ubuntu
[12:49] <sipior> fasta: you intend the system to be on CET/CEST?

[12:49] <coachj> lol
[12:49] <tranquito> Hi there, I'm having considerable difficulty running fsck on an external usb harddrive. Can somebody help me.
[12:50] <erUSUL> tranquito: what is the "considerable difficulty" ?
[12:50] <frxstrem> okay, does anyone know how to remove Xubuntu and all it's applications when I've installed it within Ubuntu?
[12:50] <fasta> sipior, yes
[12:50] <erUSUL> frxstrem: you installed xubuntu-desktop metapackage ?
[12:51] <frxstrem> erUSUL: yes, I did
[12:51] <Dr_Willis> installing is easy.. removeingis much harder :)
[12:51] <sipior> fasta: i'm in CEST as well. you're still showing that it'
[12:51] <frxstrem> erUSUL: and now I want to remove it again - with all it's applications
[12:51] <sipior> fasta: it's 12.51?
[12:51] <dogmatic69> Dr_Willis: thanks that worked
[12:51] <erUSUL> frxstrem: ... really dunno; there is a factoid to purge kde but for xubuntu i dunno
[12:51] <fasta> sipior, 12:56, but yes.
[12:51] <eliz> Im trying to install ubuntu over a lom but discovered the ubuntu installation dont work over serial?
[12:51] <Dr_Willis> dogmatic69:  that issues has beenfixed in the next relase i noticed. :)
[12:51] <fasta> sipior, the same happens on my laptop btw.
[12:51] <sipior> fasta: what does the "date" command report?
[12:51] <ceeney> ubuntu has a big problem
[12:51] <Dr_Willis> eliz:  serial? what kind of serial?
[12:51] <Jimi_Neutral> can someone tell me how i can open up the pure-ftp folder so it is open for me to edit.
[12:51] <abhi_nav> eliz, what is lom?
[12:51] <tranquito> erUSUL: The output of fsck /dev/sdb1 is:
[12:52] <fasta> sipior, 12:56
[12:52] <erUSUL> eliz: the alternate/server installer ?
[12:52] <omikron4> i've not acquainted with english language at all n i've seen many times de expresion "lol" what does it mean?
[12:52] <Jimi_Neutral> i am trying to create a passwd file and it just wont do it
[12:52] <sipior> fasta: there should be more information there
[12:52] <eliz> dr_will:serial connection from a lightsoutmanagement on a sun
[12:52] <fasta> sipior, ma mrt 29 12:56:50 CEST 201
[12:52] <tranquito> erSUL:disk is mounted
[12:52] <fasta> sipior, 0
[12:52] <mery> hola
[12:52] <ceeney> my lastest ubuntu has just 2 icons on the desktop, and its theme is in dark colors.
[12:52] <mery> hi
[12:52] <sipior> fasta: so it has the correct time zone. what does your hardware clock say? "sudo hwclock -r"
[12:52] <erUSUL> tranquito: you can not fsck a mounted disk
[12:52] <erUSUL> !tab | tranquito
[12:52] <ceeney> it looks like an old win98
[12:52] <mery> hi¡
[12:53] <mery> silly
[12:53] <Vampire0> Hi, I have a very strange problem
[12:53] <fasta> sipior, \ma 29 mrt 2010 12:57:49 CEST  -0.203823 seconden
[12:54] <tranquito> erUSUL: When I run umount on that disk it says that it is busy. If I unmount by rightclicking the desktop icon, it appears to work but fsck reads the same response!
[12:54] <fasta> sipior, I booted Windows a few days ago. That might cause it? But still I don't see how it cannot compensate for that, especially with an internet connection.
[12:54] <sipior> fasta: interesting. you keep your hardware clock in local time, not UTC?
[12:54] <fasta> sipior, I have no idea what Windows Vista does.
[12:54] <Vampire0> I've connected to my home box where I started x11vnc with Vinagre. From time to time it happens like just now that some key, in this case "r" is hanging. Which means it continuously repeats. I didn't found a way to stop this yet besides rebooting the whole machine. Restarting x11vnc didn't help :-(
[12:54] <erUSUL> tranquito: do this sudo fuser /dev/sdxx
[12:54] <fasta> sipior, and I didn't modify anything in the BIOS or whatever.
[12:55] <fasta> sipior, so, you can assume all the default.
[12:55] <fasta> defaults*
[12:55] <drizzt_> why mount.cifs may give permission error message?
[12:55] <dogmatic69> Dr_Willis: i got this ubuntu9.04 a while ago, is there anything new? i was something about 10 coming out in a few weeks
[12:55] <dogmatic69> are there any updates i should be doing?
[12:55] <dogmatic69> or wait for 10 maybe
[12:56] <erUSUL> drizzt_: you did not used it with sudo ?
[12:56] <Vampire0> It even repeats while x11vnc is not running I think
[12:56] <drizzt_> obviously i did
[12:56] <erUSUL> !details | drizzt_
[12:56] <fasta> sipior, I think the hardware clock is UTC.
[12:56] <fasta> sipior, otherwise it would have shown one hour later.
[12:57] <erUSUL> drizzt_: it was only obvious to you; i can not read minds ... yet ;)
[12:57] <sipior> fasta: no, remember that CEST is now *2* hours ahead of UTC, so 11.57 is the correct UTC time
[12:57] <ranjan> hi all...the gwibber is not working for me...its not showing any tweets
[12:57] <Vampire0> anyone any idea?
[12:57] <drizzt_> What can be wrong here: sudo mount -v -t cifs -o ro,cred=/home/xxx/.smbcred,ip=192.168.0.1,sec=ntlmv2,noperm //host/share /home/xxx/mountpoint ?
[12:57] <tranquito> erUSUL: Still claims to be mounted. It must just hate me! Will run in -v and post response.
[12:57] <ranjan> but the tweets posted are shown on the web
[12:58] <fasta> sipior, ah, ok.
[12:58] <fasta> sipior, so, conclusion? You don't know?
[12:58] <sipior> fasta: i would try setting the hardware clock as follows: sudo hwclock --utc --date="11:58:00"
[12:58] <sipior> fasta: i need a minute to type, if that's all right.
[12:58] <fasta> sipior, but when I start Windows that will mess up everything again.
[12:59] <fasta> sipior, sure.
[12:59] <tranquito> erUSUL: No verbose mode for that command!
[12:59] <drizzt_> the funny thing is that share is accessible
[12:59] <fasta> sipior, this is a problem that existed in 2001.
[12:59] <sipior> fasta: i haven't experienced similar problems with my dual boot system at home.
[12:59] <fasta> sipior, that is because you use ntp at home.
[12:59] <sipior> fasta: i do not.
[12:59] <fasta> sipior, ok, then I don't understand why there is a difference.
[12:59] <sipior> fasta: ntp is orthogonal to the time zone of the system.
[13:00] <erUSUL> tranquito: sudo fuser -km /mount/point/usbdisk
[13:00] <nfoxTc> hey I have a folder with all my work in it that magicly changed it's permissions to 'nobody' how do I change it back?
[13:00] <makdotgnu> Hi can any tell me how I can support for a dynamic subdomain in my development machine like xyz.localhost where xyz can be anything
[13:00] <sipior> fasta: here's the thing: the system can make two choices about to interpret the time found in the local clock. it can assume that the clock is kept in utc, in which case it then applies a time zone correction. this is preferred.
[13:01] <sipior> fasta: or, it can assume that the clock is *already* in the correct time zone, and displays it unmodified.
[13:01] <coolbox> can anyone tell me how to change locale to eg. en.usa.iso.... on ubuntu?
[13:01] <fasta> sipior, and if there is an internet connection it could also just connect to some server via http every boot.
[13:01] <erUSUL> coolbox: System>Preferences>Language support ?
[13:02] <ranjan> any help with gwibber??
[13:02] <sipior> fasta: ntp is not used for adjusting time zones. otherwise, you could never trust an ntp server outside of your own time zone. this would be a disaster...
[13:02] <ceeney> you can do the choices by the menus of booting
[13:02] <fasta> sipior, you cannot trust an Ubuntu system to begin with.
[13:02] <coolbox> Can it be changed there?
[13:02] <sipior> fasta: so, why are you here?
[13:03] <drizzt_> What can be wrong here: sudo mount -v -t cifs -o ro,cred=/home/xxx/.smbcred,ip=192.168.0.1,sec=ntlmv2,noperm //host/share /home/xxx/mountpoint ?
[13:03] <fasta> sipior, because it has a combination of openness and practicality.
[13:03] <drizzt_> !ot
[13:03] <Dr_Willis> drizzt_:  isent the order of shome of those backwards
[13:03] <sipior> fasta: i've tried to help. do what you will.
[13:03] <fasta> sipior, it is however not a secure system.
[13:03] <Dr_Willis> drizzt_:  mount /mnt /dev/XXX -t XXX -o XXXXXX
[13:04] <Keeage> Anyone know of a good guide for making a really good NAS that can accept different type drives
[13:04] <fasta> sipior, anyway, sudo hwclock --utc --date="12:04:00" && date shows the time an hour before the right time.
[13:04] <Dr_Willis> drizzt_:  youmay want to check online for some examples of doing that. Ive rarely done samba shares that way
[13:04] <fasta> sipior, if that is in fact correct, then Gnome doesn't update its idea of time.
[13:05] <sipior> fasta: you'll need a "--set" option in there as well, now that i think of it.
[13:05] <artur__> ey
[13:05] <sipior> fasta: have a look at the man page for hwclock.
[13:05] <artur__> polski?
[13:05] <drizzt_> order is insignificant
[13:05] <Vampire0> noone? :-(
[13:06] <letharion> Hello ppl :) I'm trying /etc/init.d/mysql start which says "Starting mysqld...", and then returns "[fail]". Starting again repeats the same output. tail /var/log/mysql.err /var/log/mysql.log returns 0 rows. What do I do?
[13:06] <drizzt_> !pl
[13:06] <lisa__> erUSUL: Sys hung on me! Had to hard reboot! Wtf is up with this harddrive!

[13:06] <Keeage> Anyone know of a good guide for making a really good NAS that can accept different type drives
[13:06] <erUSUL> lisa__: ? dunno :) take a look at log files ?
[13:07] <fasta> sipior, even if I do sudo hwclock --set --utc --date="15:10:00", I see no effect on date.
[13:07] <bwallum> lucid -18 kernel hangs on os splash, am I alone?
[13:07] <drizzt_> so why mount.cifs would fail with 'permission denied' error? i'm running out of ideas
[13:08] <SmartSsa> fasta: is your timezone set wrong?
[13:08] <sipior> fasta: you may need to include the date as well. consult the hwclock man page.
[13:09] <fasta> SmartSsa, in the Gnome applet the right timezone is selected.
[13:09] <sipior> fasta: so --date="29/03/10 13:09:00" or thereabouts.
[13:09] <SmartSsa> fasta: which timezone is yours, and which ubuntu version?
[13:10] <fasta> SmartSsa, GMT+1, 9.10

[13:12] <magicvibes> Hi i recently tried installing GNOME Desktop Manager to fiddle with my Login Screen customizing the look and feel. Anyhow since I downloaded the gdm-2.28 and ran "sudo ./configure; make; make install" in the unzipd dir, got a few errors from missing lib's and other such which i used syanptic to download - Now i cannot reboot my computer! it just hangs at the splash screen with the loading ubuntu mouse
[13:12] <ceeney> try #ubuntu-cn
[13:12] <mrzfz> ceeney: its the gsm/3g modem my provider gave me. I've googled for quite a while with no luck so I thought I'd try irc
[13:13] <raj-darkmystery> wht problem u r facing with huawei?
[13:13] <sipior> fasta: this might also help: http://www.linuxselfhelp.com/quick/clock.html
[13:13] <ceeney> i don't think that we can buy one outside china
[13:13] <SmartSsa> fasta: what happens when you run 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure tzdata' ?
[13:13] <mrzfz> ceeney: They control virtually all of the nordic market for 3g modems
[13:13] <letharion> huawei modems are common in norther europe
[13:14] <BuenGenio> Good day
[13:14] <mrzfz> I've seen a lot of people having problems with earlier kernel builds and this modem, but I've apt-get dist-upgraded and still no luck

[13:26] <bouma> sipior: possibly ~/.xsession-errors, which i noticed were like >1gb and growing then i deleted, but perhaps there is another hard link to it and the space is still allocated? any suggestions ?
[13:26] <sipior> bouma: what exactly are you attempting to ascertain?
[13:26] <jonnor> bouma: if a program has this file opened, it will not actually go away before that program closes it
[13:26] <massimo_> #join ubuntu-it
[13:27] <Jojo> hey
[13:28] <bouma> sipior: well im trying to find that process that eats all my space on / and kill it, so i can use my computer, many programs wont run with 0space on / i can temporarily free up space by moving things from /var/cache/apt/archives to another fs but the space is eaten up quickly at around megs/sec, i watched it disapear with watch -d 'df -h'

[13:29] <jonnor> necro_: for instance through apt-get, apt-url, Ubuntu Software Center, or similar
[13:29] <sipior> bouma: what does lsof say?
[13:29] <indus> necro_, or menu>ubuntu software center > sound and video

[13:30] <Emry> I have a quick question.  I am downloading the beta.  When the relase comes out, what is the suggested way to upgrade from beta to release? :)
[13:31] <raj-darkmystery> hey abhi_nav solved the problem :D hurrey yuppiee...
[13:31] <abhi_nav> raj-darkmystery, ohh great! (btw you become raj-darkmystery from raj? when? why?)
[13:31] <jpds> Emry: Just upgrade as normal?
[13:31] <allu2> magicvibes, any progress?
[13:31] <abhi_nav> raj-darkmystery, :)
[13:31] <Emry> jpds, :) I have never done an actual upgrade.  Always managed to get things at the right time to just do a fresh install. ehehehe ^_^
[13:32] <raj-darkmystery> hehe.. that was nt registered... this one is registered one
[13:32] <bouma> sipior: well the biggest file is ~/xsession-errors at 1.5gb , but it says its (deleted), but i have the suspicion that the inode is still allocated (not really in the know wrt filesystems but understand multiple hardlinks can keep a file in existence after being deleted in one place)
[13:32] <jpds> Emry: System → Admin → Update Manager - should do it.
[13:32] <raj-darkmystery> are yaar i just started using IRC.. to thoda time to lagega na ;)
[13:32] <anodesni> Please could somebody  sent  me the file  /usr/share/ca-certificates/mozilla/Equifax_Secure_CA.cert  ?
[13:33] <bouma> sipior: ah so the first field, in this case, gnome-pan, is the program holding the filehandle ?
[13:33] <sipior> bouma: well, if you're still running X, it's probably still dumping errors, yes. i don't think it's hard-linked anywhere. try killing X and see what happens.
[13:33] <sipior> bouma: should be, yes
[13:33] <bouma> sipior: will i be able to relogin with 0space on root,  idont have a spare boot disk here.
[13:34] <Anomie2> is this my sendmail path ?  /usr/bin/bsd-mailx
[13:34] <jonnor> Where can I find tarball releases of LP projects like lernid or acire?
[13:34] <sipior> bouma: switch to a vt with "ctrl-alt-F1" and login there.
[13:34] <Johnny> ich habe mal eine Frage : Ich soll jetzt einen Server beitreten, doch irgendwo soll ich einen SSL Port angeben, doch wo ?
[13:34] <sipior> bouma: but if you think pan is causing the problem. blow it away and see if that helps.
[13:35] <bouma> sipior: ok i did lsof|grep xsession, and a quite a few programs are in the first field associated with .xsession-errors
[13:35] <anodesni> please could somebody post that file on pastebin??
[13:35] <bouma> sipior: but they all say (deleted) at the end of the line
[13:36] <Anomie2> Joomla is using the 'PHP Mail Function' - do I even need to install anything?
[13:37] <letharion> Guest11092: SSL doesn't use "ports". Programs that use SSL, they use ports.
[13:38] <bouma> sipior: just on a thought i ran sync, its taking a while
[13:38] <bouma> and totally occuping a cou
[13:38] <bouma> cpu

[13:41] <anodesni> letharion, thank you very much! that really helped me
[13:41] <letharion> anodesni: Notice it ends in .crt instead of .cert, but I assume it's the file your looking for anyway. No problem.

[14:21] <asdff> frxstrem: you prob have to chmod some directories man
[14:22] <frxstrem> asdff: well, I already knew that, but I don't know what to chmod  it to
[14:22] <asdff> frxstrem: chmod 777 is for read/write access I think
[14:22] <asdff> frxstrem: could be easily googled
[14:22] <frxstrem> asdff: well, I've already tried but I didn't find anything useful
[14:23] <asdff> hm kk
[14:23] <asdff> maybe someone with more expertise can help then
[14:29] <mikewatt> no brightness control on Ubuntu 9.10 how to fix it?
[14:29] <researcher1> is there a way to split a video file in Ubuntu. I want to upload an office video which is very large. HELP ?
[14:29] <mikewatt> how to fix brightness control on 9.10?
[14:30] <fasta> mikewatt, implement a Linux kernel module for your platform.
[14:30] <mikewatt> fasta: how to do that?
[14:30] <fasta> mikewatt, oh, and you are supposed to reverse-engineer the hardware, because it is a trade-secret how to control it.
[14:30] <Slart> researcher1: you could try avidemux.. it will let you edit  a move.. cut it into chunks or whatever
[14:31] <Bisu[Shield]> yes i play starcraft all the time
[14:31] <Slart> fasta: not really a useful answer..
[14:31] <fasta> mikewatt, I don't know. I happen to be able to have the skills to do so, yet my backlight still goes off for no reason at all.
[14:31] <Bisu[Shield]> cannot wait for 2 to come out of beta
[14:31] <Slart> mikewatt: sometimes you can adjust it.. on some hardware you can't.. not yet at least
[14:31] <fasta> Slart, it is however the only answer I have.
[14:31] <mikewatt>  fasta : I lost 4 keycode on ubuntu.
[14:31] <fasta> Slart, oh, right, that is a much more useful answer!
[14:31] <Slart> fasta: then perhaps you might want to keep it to yourself
[14:32] <fasta> Slart, heh, or maybe we should not claim Ubuntu is the greatest thing on the world.
[14:32] <Slart> mikewatt: I would suggest googling for your laptop/hardware model etc or searching the forums.. there might be a work-around to make it work
[14:32] <bazhang> !ot > fasta
[14:32] <Slart> fasta: we don't..
[14:32] <mikewatt> I can adjust by enter echo values to the /proc/acpi/video/gfx0/dd03/brightness
[14:32] <rbelllini> Hello everybody!
[14:33] <mikewatt> slart: I did that and found they also have the problem but haven`t fixed.
[14:33] <Slart> mikewatt: oh.. that's at least promising.. perhaps there will be a new version of the brightness control in lucid.. or even for 9.10
[14:33] <fasta> mikewatt, well in that case you can probably Google for keymaps and how to configure them.
[14:33] <mikewatt> fasta: what do u mean?
[14:34] <fasta> mikewatt, your keyboard generates numbers. The kernel name for the thing translating those numbers is the keymap.
[14:34] <fireW> could someone help me to find out an irc client for ubuntu please?
[14:34] <fasta> mikewatt, see dumpkeys
[14:34] <mikewatt> fasta: I see many people have this issue with ubuntu.
[14:35] <hateball> !info xchat | fireW
[14:35] <llutz> fireW: irssi, xchat, konversation, quassel, weechat.... pick whatever you like
[14:35] <fasta> mikewatt, yes. I don't know for who Ubuntu is developing. Certainly not for people with laptops.
[14:35] <mikewatt> fasta: yes O know that but how to assign those numbers to the keys.
[14:35] <Slart> !irc
[14:35] <mikewatt> fasta: that`s nonsense.
[14:35] <fasta> mikewatt, I don't know by heart.
[14:36] <mikewatt> fasta: It says it suite for laptops and desktops.
[14:37] <fireW> great! Thank you guys!
[14:37] <Guest17605> jo
[14:37] <mikewatt> wt i wanna know now is how to let the developers of ubuntu know this issue fast and get noticed.
[14:37] <yellabs> how much would a shop ask for formatting 60 pc' s hard drives ( a bit off topic maybe )
[14:38] <fasta> mikewatt, issues like this have been known for over 14 months.
[14:38] <mikewatt> any idea how to do that?
[14:38] <fasta> mikewatt, and no fix in sight.
[14:38] <fasta> mikewatt, Launchpad.
[14:38] <Guest17605> anyone runing alephone on ubuntu 9
[14:39] <Slart> !bug | mikewatt
[14:39] <mikewatt> fasta: that`s dispointing.
[14:39] <Slart> mikewatt: it doesn't guarantee that someone will fix it.. but it's a good start
[14:40] <mikewatt> slart: I filed 3 days ago.
[14:40] <pdh> Hi. How do I generate a xorg.conf which represents the current configuration that X is using?
[14:41] <fasta> mikewatt, tell me about it. That's why I decided to figure out what I could do myself.
[14:41] <mikewatt> it seems Ubuntu also has some application compatible issue.
[14:41] <mikewatt> fasta: what?
[14:41] <Slart> mikewatt: 3 days is a pretty short time when it comes to fixing a non-security related bug.. give it a week or two .. at least
[14:41] <fasta> mikewatt, reading how a platform kernel driver works etc.
[14:41] <pdh> I'm using xfce4 and struggling to get dual head working on an intel x4500. I want to create an xorg.conf but I'd rather start from the base of what's being auto-detected than start from scratch.
[14:41] <fasta> Slart, it has been 14 months already.
[14:42] <mikewatt> slart: I`m looking into it.
[14:42] <fasta> If there is no official developer that has your exact model it will not get fixed.
[14:42] <Slart> fasta: 14 months? for the brightness thing?
[14:42] <fasta> Slart, yes.
[14:42] <wild_oscar> after generating a locale with validlocale en_GB.ISO-8859-15, how does one set it up to be the default?
[14:42] <Slart> fasta: ouch..
[14:43] <mikewatt> fasta: Does my issue related to kernel bug?
[14:43] <Lint01> wild_oscar: via locales applet, it will appear there
[14:43] <llutz> pdh: "X -configure"
[14:43] <fasta> Slart, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/hal/+bug/297962
[14:43] <fasta> mikewatt, it has nothing to do with the kernel.
[14:43] <mikewatt> maybe this is a kernel bug.
[14:43] <fasta> mikewatt, it is just connecting a few basic APIs.
[14:43] <ZummiG777> Is there a way to permanently make a directory under /var/run that persists reboots?
[14:44] <wild_oscar> Lint01: what applet is that?
[14:44] <fasta> mikewatt, you need to know a few memory addresses to poke into in memory to search for some headers usually and that's it.
[14:44] <wild_oscar> (I'm used to do it by hand)
[14:44] <Lint01> wild_oscar: i Gnome, System-Administration-Languages
[14:45] <mikewatt> fasta: It cannot fetch 4 keycodes? They`re FN+F7 FN+F8  Fn+f9 fn+f10.
[14:45] <fasta> mikewatt, that is just a keymap issue. Read dumpkeys and how to modify keymaps to figure that out.
[14:45] <mikewatt> fasta: I asked someone here he said it`s kernel related.
[14:45] <Jimi_Neutral> how do i remove a group that has been added for ftp
[14:45] <fasta> mikewatt, yes, it is a kernel data structure.
[14:46] <fasta> mikewatt, it translates the numbers your keyboard generates into numbers the kernel uses.
[14:46] <wild_oscar> Lint01: you can set the language there, but not the input (UTF-8, ISO...)
[14:46] <mikewatt> fasta: but it doesn`t return a value in tty1.
[14:47] <fasta> mikewatt, so, your keyboard generates 101 for Fn+f9, but your kernel does not translate that to KEY_BRIGHTNESS_UP.
[14:47] <sipior> Jimi_Neutral: "groupdel". be sure to remove any ftp user before removing this group.
[14:47] <fasta> mikewatt, right, because according to the kernel it doesn't exist.
[14:47] <klappi> how can i add a locale to my system?
[14:47] <mikewatt> fasta: yes.
[14:47] <Lint01> wild_oscar: strange, I remember I was used to select lang there, like 'xxYY (Codepage)' they could remove this feature now
[14:47] <Jimi_Neutral> sipior, now bud?
[14:47] <fasta> mikewatt, anyway, unless you are a software developer, there is nothing you can do.
[14:47] <Jimi_Neutral> sipior, how i meant
[14:47] <Lint01> wild_oscar: can you select new locale on GDM screen?
[14:48] <wild_oscar> Lint01: probabably (it's called "language support")
[14:48] <sipior> Jimi_Neutral: "sudo groupdel ftp" or whatever.
[14:48] <wild_oscar> I am trying update-locale LANG=en_GB.ISO-8859-15
[14:48] <mikewatt> fasta: ok then what should I do?
[14:48] <fasta> mikewatt, find the bug in launchpad or report a new one.
[14:48] <Jimi_Neutral> sipior, i mean the users
[14:48] <wild_oscar> but don't know if I need to manually change every LC_* that I see in the "locale" output
[14:49] <sipior> Jimi_Neutral: "userdel". sense a pattern? ;-)
[14:49] <fasta> mikewatt, if it already exists add yourself to the list of affected users.
[14:49] <Jimi_Neutral> sipior,  lol sorry...do i have to be in a certain place to delete them using command line
[14:49] <fasta> mikewatt, and otherwise just pay someone to fix it.
[14:49] <sipior> Jimi_Neutral: no, anywhere's good.
[14:50] <mikewatt> fasta: That`s Ok. u can check here.https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15609
[14:50] <Jimi_Neutral> sipior, hmm its actually a system user and group i added folling a tut on pureFTP
[14:50] <Jimi_Neutral> sipior, does tyhe same still aply cause there is no username as such is there
[14:50] <linus> hey
[14:50] <Lint01> wild_oscar: so just replace LANG in /etc/environment, or wherever
[14:50] <linus> can some one help me?
[14:51] <Michalxo> hello! Does anyone know how to "try/show/see" grub2 directly without need of rebooting? is there any "test/show" command?
[14:51] <sipior> Jimi_Neutral: if that was the only program making use of those entries, feel free to get rid of them. otherwise, just make sure the login is disabled (it probably is already), and leave it alone.
[14:51] <Jimi_Neutral> sipior, ok ty
[14:51] <kubi_ubi_bubi> hello, how can I turn off my computer with delay? I mean i wanna shutdown my pc, but not now, later
[14:51] <Emry> I have a strange question.  In Lucid, what is the name of the package for gnome desktop, and for rythmbox?
[14:51] <iceroot> kubi_ubi_bubi: man shutdown   shutdown -h 60  imo for 60 minutes
[14:51] <jussi01> Emry: ubuntu-desktop
[14:52] <jussi01> !info rhythmbox
[14:52] <jussi01> Emry: and rhythmbox :)
[14:52] <Emry> When I try to install rythmbox it tells me there is no such package.  I must be doing something wrong there. ^^;;
[14:52] <kubi_ubi_bubi> thanks
[14:53] <fasta> Emry, rhythmbox
[14:53] <jussi01> Emry: oh wait, lucid... join me in #ubuntu+1 :)
[14:53] <bastid_raZor> Emry: for lucid please join #ubuntu+1
[14:53] <iceroot> Emry: /join #ubuntu+1  for 10.04 support
[14:53] <unitedpotsmokers> guys, help me to repair grub on ubuntu karmic
[14:53] <unitedpotsmokers> i using knopix live cd
[14:53] <Emry> Strangely, ubuntu-desktop does not seem intuitive to get gnome desktop >:P
[14:53] <iceroot> Emry: but if you see its called rhythmbox and not rythmbox. use apt-cache search to get the correct names
[14:54] <Emry> ^^ I see.
[14:54] <Emry> My spelling is not so good. ehehehhehee
[14:54] <iceroot> Emry: it does but as we sad, 10.04 is support is in #ubuntu+1
[14:55] <getxsick> hi!
[14:55] <Emry> Have they considered creating a gnome-desktop package that points to ubuntu-desktop? ^_^ For someone who has actually used other distros, the idea of using a package named ubuntu-desktop is like the last thing I would have thought of. ^^;
[14:56] <yellabs> !grub
[14:56]  * Emry tried a dozen variangs of gnome, gnome2, gnome-desktop, etc to try to find it before asking. :P
[14:56] <getxsick> i use gpg-agent and pinentry, however i'm wondering how to avoid passing a passphrase for the first time, any idea?
[14:56] <Michalxo> !grub michalxo
[14:56] <Michalxo> !grub2 michalxo
[14:56] <Michalxo> hehe
[14:56] <rolf_> !gnome
[14:56] <iceroot> Emry: its a metapackage
[14:57] <Emry> :) How often do you get people with that question? :)
[14:57] <Mkools> Is any one here from India that uses dataone of BSNL
[14:57] <iceroot> Emry: if you use sudo apt-get install gnome, you only get the standard gnome, if you are using ubuntu-desktop, you will get the ubuntu-version (themes, additional programs and so on) if you want kde, you install kubuntu-desktop, if you want xfce4, you use xubuntu-desktop
[14:57] <iceroot> Emry: we never get question like that
[14:58] <Emry> iceroot, actuall apt-get isntall gnome gets an error saying its not there. ^_^  If no one else has asked, then it is probably just me. hehehehehe :)
[14:58] <rfvizarra> join #liferay
[14:59]  * Emry will go install it on a couple machines now.  (Mostly I am interested in the gnome interface because most of the FAQ's on how to get to settings assume you are using Gnome instead of KDE or XFCE4) ^_^
[15:00] <OerHeks> Gnome: startx or sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start
[15:00] <Mkools> Can someone please tell me how to know which server you are using?
[15:00] <iceroot> Emry: ubuntu comes by default with gnome, so why you want to install it?
[15:01] <Emry> iceroot, Because I generally start with xubuntu. ^_^
[15:01] <iceroot> Mkools: lsb_release -a
[15:01] <Mkools> iceroot: command line?
[15:01] <iceroot> Mkools: yes

[15:17] <microtux> hi,
[15:17] <tsyj2007> Mark^: a virtual CD driver...
[15:17] <microtux> how can i disable daylight saving on ubuntu ?
[15:18] <sipior> microtux: change your time zone accordingly
[15:18] <rolf_> yesterday it said around 250 updates automatic for ubuntu and i said ok download, did all that get installed automatic or do i have to do that myself ?
[15:19] <martian> I'm having a strange problem where via SSH, I can easily navigate to ~/sites/xyw where 'xyz' is a symlink to somewhere else, but when I connect to my home folder via SMB, I can not go into that folder; I get an 'access denied' error... any ideas?
[15:19] <microtux> sipior, my timezone is UTC+1, should i change it to UTC ?
[15:19] <sipior> microtux: /etc/localtime normally consists of a single compiled time zone information file, but you can make it a symbolic link pointing to any of the entries in /usr/share/zoneinfo.
[15:19] <OerHeks> rolf_, yes, after download it will install automatic but may ask your pass
[15:20] <rolf_> aha
[15:20] <rolf_> cause in that synaptic thing it looked like there was alot of stuff that can be installed which are currently not
[15:20] <OerHeks> with those 250 updates i presume there is also a new kernel package, and it will tell you if reboot is needed
[15:21] <sipior> microtux: you're in britain? you could pick GMT, i suppose.
[15:22] <Emry> Is there a support channel for the Music store? :P I just want to find out how to set my payment options.

[15:27] <crawler> hi.  i'm using SCUMMVM and unable to save the game states (Alt+1-9).  save path is set "/home/crawler/Games/SCUMMVM/saves"  so i'm not sure what is going on here.
[15:27] <motaka2> who can help me installing virtualbox on my ubuntu ?
[15:28] <nintnint> Can someone help me wipe my butt?
[15:28] <genii> nintnint: Please try not to troll in here
[15:28] <nintnint> okay so i formatted it as ext2 and did 'mount /dev/sda3 /media/dox
[15:28] <rolf_> is it bad to install everything available in synaptic screen : o
[15:28] <martian> rolf_: yes
[15:29] <crawler> motaka, you can find virtualbox in the repos.  what are you having trouble with?
[15:29] <rolf_> heh
[15:29] <martian> nintnint: did you run that via sudo?
[15:29] <rolf_> slower start OS ?
[15:29] <nintnint> First without, then with.
[15:29] <rolf_> and slower to r un etc ?
[15:29] <nintnint> It mounts, but I can't put anything in there.  Just a lost+found folder.
[15:29] <martian> rolf_: it will not be good.
[15:30] <crawler> rolf_: that would be an interesting experiment :)
[15:30] <llutz> nintnint: use chown/chmod to adjust permissions (read man-pages how)
[15:30] <nintnint> when I try to mount it I get 'The enclosing drive for the volume is locked.
[15:30] <crawler> any ScummVM users that can help me with save states?
[15:30] <rolf_> prolly just end up in formatting and reinstalling
[15:31] <fasta> rolf_, in theory it is not bad idea. In practice, because packages are broken it is.
[15:31] <Ek|mu5> Hmmm... apparently my problem exists for most apps that require scrolling
[15:31] <Ek|mu5> had to kill xchat-gnome to get X functionality back
[15:32] <Ek|mu5> scrolling on an xterm with a long buffer causes the same problem too
[15:32] <martian> nintnint: Sometimes the best thing to do is to google whatever error message you are getting. For example, I'm guessing it's a thumb drive you're using, right?
[15:32] <rolf_> ahh finallly i got 3 d chess to work
[15:33] <xenaxon> hello guys, I need some advice. I'm a web developer and I'm totally foreign to LINUX
[15:33] <nintnint> no.  a separate partition, martian.  I have a 320, with a 5.5gb swap at the end.  100 at the tart of the drive and in the middle is the space I want to be for media.
[15:34] <xenaxon> I'm considering switching and starting on linux. but I'm unsure if it's better for me on ubuntu than on windows
[15:34] <xenaxon> do you recommend ubuntu/kubuntu over windows?
[15:34] <nintnint> Of course they do.
[15:34] <nintnint> They on a ubuntu channel.
[15:34] <vestel> xenaxon: Of course, I do
[15:34] <nintnint> it all depends on what you do though.
[15:34] <llutz> xenaxon: depends on your needs
[15:34] <martian> xenaxon: well, this is kind of a biased place to get an opinion :)
[15:34] <xenaxon> well, will it do me any good
[15:34] <nintnint> it depends on what you want to do.
[15:34] <Ek|mu5> Anybody else have the: "Session active, not inhibited, screen idle." Pop up on their tray?
[15:34] <nintnint> if you want to play new video games, stick with windows.
[15:34] <xenaxon> I am a web develop
[15:34] <xenaxon> developer
[15:35] <xenaxon> I don't play games
[15:35] <llutz> xenaxon: that means nothing
[15:35] <xenaxon> but I need some image manipulation programs that are windows-only
[15:35] <martian> xenaxon: Use both. You'll want to maintain a windows system to fall back on if you screw everything up on your ubuntu system so you can still get work done
[15:35] <fasta> xenaxon, for your desktop?
[15:35] <xenaxon> and I'm not sure if all programs are also for ubuntu
[15:35] <vestel> xenaxon: Do you develop ASP.NET / IIS based things?
[15:35] <fasta> xenaxon, or laptop?
[15:35] <xenaxon> for my laptop
[15:35] <xenaxon> no vestel
[15:35] <fasta> xenaxon, Windows has drivers for your laptop, Ubuntu most likely not.
[15:35] <Ek|mu5> martian: not exactly the reason for them to switch... :D
[15:36] <fasta> xenaxon, you can try a live cd however to see whether everything works.
[15:36] <xenaxon> I have all drivers fasta
[15:36] <xenaxon> I'll try that.
[15:36] <FF666> is anyone from Argentina?
[15:36] <fasta> xenaxon,?
[15:36] <xenaxon> can you give me a link to download the latest version of kubuntu
[15:36] <erUSUL> !es | FF666
[15:36] <fasta> xenaxon, how can you know you have all the drivers?
[15:36] <erUSUL> !ar > FF666
[15:36] <Ek|mu5> for newer hardware, your pretty much screwed until the next release, like I am
[15:37] <xenaxon> fasta: I have the drivers on CD
[15:37] <fasta> xenaxon, I think you got a driver CD from your vendor containing _Windows_ drivers...
[15:37] <vestel> xenaxon: If you are not stucked to Windows due to a 3rd party apps, such as DSL drivers or VPN Client, you can give ubuntu a try
[15:37] <fasta> xenaxon, you are probably too clueless to use Ubuntu Linux on a laptop.
[15:37] <FF666> I'm just asking
[15:37] <fasta> xenaxon, but good luck.
[15:37] <nintnint> You can use ubuntu.  Ubuntu is simpler than windows.
[15:38] <is00k> hi
[15:38] <nintnint> xenaxon:  just try ubuntu.  it is pretty simple and foolproof.  Like a house where everything is babyproof.
[15:38] <martian> nintnint: Not sure about that error... the permissions for the mount point and partition are proper?
[15:38] <is00k> someone with experience in cacti ?
[15:38] <xenaxon> yeah, that's why I want linux
[15:38] <sipior> fasta: quit being so bloody obnoxious, if you can possibly manage it.
[15:38] <xenaxon> to avoid any security issues
[15:38] <nintnint> martian: I did sudo chown nick /dev/sda3
[15:38] <xenaxon> and to work faster
[15:38] <nintnint> didn't give me any errors.
[15:38] <Ek|mu5> nintnint, on OLDER hardware, I'm currently being screwed over by some combination of gnome-power-manager, acpi, and xorg
[15:39] <nintnint> okay?
[15:39] <Ek|mu5> xenaxon, you pretty much get the anti-virus out of the way with linux
[15:39] <FF666> the thing I dont like of ubuntu is that in ubuntu there isn't good games
[15:39] <llutz> nintnint: don't change permissions on devices
[15:40] <martian> nintnint: and how are you mounting it?
[15:40] <Ek|mu5> xenaxon, as for other aspects of security, RTFM
[15:40] <llutz> nintnint: mount it, then: sudo chown user:group /mount/point
[15:40] <Bisu[Shield]> do i need to update sources.list for php 5.2.10 to 5.2.13
[15:40] <Bisu[Shield]> how do I update and get the latest
[15:40] <iceroot> Bisu[Shield]: no
[15:40] <iceroot> Bisu[Shield]: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install php5  for updating/installing php
[15:41] <Bisu[Shield]> ya but it does not update php: 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded
[15:41] <Bisu[Shield]> php is version 5.2.10
[15:41] <xenaxon> which version of kubuntu should I download?
[15:41] <iceroot> Bisu[Shield]: then 5.2.13 is not in the repos
[15:41] <Ek|mu5> Bisu[Shield], then it's not upgraded on the repositories
[15:41] <iceroot> xenaxon: 9.10
[15:42] <genii> xenaxon: 9.10 at the moment
[15:42] <Bisu[Shield]> so how do i install it
[15:42] <xenaxon> Kubuntu 9.10 / Kubuntu Netbook Remix 9.10
[15:42] <iceroot> Bisu[Shield]: just wait until it is in the repos
[15:42] <Ek|mu5> xenaxon, if you're on a netbook, get the remix since it fits better on the smaller screens
[15:42] <Bisu[Shield]> i am running into one of the bugs in php5.2.10 though
[15:42] <Bisu[Shield]> so i need to update
[15:42] <xenaxon> I'm on a notebook not a netbook
[15:43] <Ek|mu5> xenaxon, then get the full Kubuntu
[15:43] <iceroot> Bisu[Shield]: then search for a ppa with 5.2.13, get a deb (for ubuntu!) with 5.2.13 or build it from source
[15:43] <iceroot> !ppa | Bisu[Shield]
[15:43] <xenaxon> ok
[15:43] <xenaxon> thanks for the help
[15:43] <Ek|mu5> xenaxon, if KDE is your thing
[15:43] <xenaxon> it's gonna take a while
[15:43] <xenaxon> so talk to you guys a bit later
[15:44] <Ek|mu5> anyone have any issues with the: "Session active, not inhibited, screen idle..." pop up on their trays?
[15:45] <Ek|mu5> it's really fracking annoying
[15:45] <Ek|mu5> my X is fooked
[15:46] <martian> Why would I get an 'access denied' error when trying to navigate to a SMB share of ~/sites/default when I can navigate to said folder fine via SSH? ~/sites is a folder but 'default' is a symlink.
[15:46] <SealedWithAKiss> I have configured a VPN connection in Ubuntu. However when I click on the connection nothing happens and it doesn't connection. Why is this?
[15:46] <SealedWithAKiss> connect*
[15:47] <Ek|mu5> martian, SMB is a different beast
[15:47] <BluesKaj> 'Morning
[15:47] <martian> Ek|mu5: so, no good reason... mess with my samba config until it works? :)
[15:47] <Ek|mu5> SealedWithAKiss, if it's an openvpn server you're connecting to you have to get the client
[15:48] <SealedWithAKiss> Ek|mu5, it's PPTP I think.
[15:49] <Ek|mu5> martian, pretty much...
[15:49] <ubuntu> hello
[15:50] <Marg2010> Hello
[15:51] <Ek|mu5> SealedWithAKiss, not really familiar with that one, sorry
[15:51] <Marg2010> I have a problem
[15:51] <Ek|mu5> SealedWithAKiss, but i still think you have to have the client for pptp installed before so you can configure it with the manager
[15:52] <Marg2010> I lost my top menu bar in ubuntu 9.06
[15:52] <Ek|mu5> martian, I don't think SMB will work with the ~ in paths...
[15:53] <Marg2010> How do you get your original menu bar back
[15:53] <Slart> Marg2010: you lost the entire gray bar? or just the menu?
[15:54] <Marg2010> then entire gray bar
[15:54] <tonii> martian: perhaps because ~ would be the homedir for the user running samba, and not your ssh-user.
[15:54] <manster> hey guys anyone want to help me get my webcam working again
[15:54] <Slart> Marg2010: hmm.. that bar is an application called "gnome-panel".. usually it's set to autostart when you login.. you've tried rebooting?
[15:54] <manster> i am running karmic
[15:54] <manster> it used to work fine
[15:54] <manster> with cheese and skype
[15:55] <manster> and i havent manually changed anything
[15:55] <Marg2010> no :$
[15:55] <manster> think an update might have broken up
[15:55] <manster> it*
[15:55] <Marg2010> will try that
[15:55] <Marg2010> thank you
[15:55] <manster> but i really am clueless
[15:55] <Slart> Marg2010: it's a cheap solution if it works =)
[15:55] <manster> its an hp laptop
[15:55] <rumpsy> !webcam
[15:55] <Slart> Marg2010: you're welcome
[15:56] <manster> rumpsy, yes i have been trying to fix this for a week now
[15:56] <andrew________> I have a netbook with ubuntu 8.10 installed, but the partition size is too small, is there any way to resize it?
[15:56] <manster> so i have been across that
[15:56] <frxstrem> is there a way to easily change my MAC address?
[15:56] <manster> and exhausted all thats on that page
[15:56] <Ek|mu5> andrew________, gparted on the live cd
[15:56] <llutz> frxstrem: ifconfig
[15:56] <andrew________> Ek|mu5: That'll allow me to resize partitions?
[15:56] <Slart> andrew________: boot from a live cd (the normal ubuntu desktop install cd will work) and run gparted to resize the partition.. remember to backup anything important
[15:56] <frxstrem> llutz: well, I mean, how can I do it in ifconfig
[15:56] <Ek|mu5> andrew________, yes
[15:56] <andrew________> Ok cool thanks
[15:56] <rumpsy> manster: okay, but i'm having a plan to buy a webcam so what i did that
[15:57] <llutz> frxstrem: man ifconfig  (hw ether)
[15:57] <Ek|mu5> andrew________, use it carefully
[15:57] <manster> rumpsy, hm?
[15:57] <andrew________> Ek|mu5: Just got to resize two partitions. :) Ta
[15:57] <jsec|mobile> I'm having issues with assigning keyboard shortcuts to change desktop workspaces in 9.10. The compiz shortcut for the expo work just fine, but when i try to bind keys to move to specific workspaces, nothing seems to work. Anybody have any ideas?
[15:57] <rumpsy> manster: my choice will be creative
[15:58] <Ek|mu5> andrew________, good luck with that :D
[15:58] <manster> rumpsy, mines built in
[15:58] <manster> and it worked fine
[15:58] <manster> i just have no clue how to fix it being broken now
[15:58] <Slart> jsec|mobile: you're using the compizconfig-settings manager to edit the shortcuts?
[15:58] <manster> because i never had to set it up in the first place
[15:59] <manster> cheese says no device detected
[15:59] <manster> No camera found!
[15:59] <jsec|mobile> Slart: I tried that, and the default keyboard shortcuts window under Preferences
[15:59] <rumpsy> manster: oh
[15:59] <Ek|mu5> manster, new kernel?
[16:00] <manster> Ek|mu5, i updated using the update manager
[16:00] <Slart> jsec|mobile: I just tried setting the shortcut in CCSM and it works for me..  I used the "viewport switcher" plugin
[16:00] <manster> a week ago
[16:00] <Miser_> mdz.gov.za
[16:00] <Ek|mu5> manster, new kernels can mess up your drivers...
[16:00] <manster> but i also tried a purge and reinstall of cheese
[16:00] <manster> no dice
[16:00] <panfist> i'm trying to mount a drive that i just formatted, and i get the error that it's already mounted or that the target dir is busy. it's not mounted (see cat /etc/mtab http://paste.ubuntu.com/406027/ ) and the target dir i just created in the last command
[16:00] <manster> yea
[16:01] <Slart> jsec|mobile: the compiz desktops are not the same as the gnome desktops.. at least it wasn't when I last checked.. it's the same functionality but with different backends and different settings..
[16:01] <manster> Ek|mu5, i have no clue how to fix driver isues like this
[16:01] <manster> i go to /dev/ and theres no video device ther
[16:01] <Slart> jsec|mobile: if you're using compiz to configure your desktops you have to use compiz to switch as well.. and the compiz shortcut keys
[16:01] <manster> how can i force it to be recognized
[16:02] <jsec|mobile> Slart: that would explain it. I was trying to bind the compiz workspaces with the gnome controls. It's working now. Thanks for your help.
[16:02] <Slart> jsec|mobile: you're welcome
[16:02] <Ek|mu5> manster, dmesg for the hardware, then get the drivers, then compile with the new kernel
[16:02] <manster> Ek|mu5, thank you i will get on that
[16:03] <Ek|mu5> manster, it's a b1tch but that's what we get for not sticking with the LTS... :D
[16:04] <Deffo> Hi there, is anyone experienced with recovering Evolution from a ~/.evolution -folder instead of a backup file?
[16:04] <Blackmane> I accidentally rm -rf ~, it deleted my whole /home/kyle/ directory! can someone help me please (i can deal with not restoring the files, i need to know if i deleted anything crucial to the functioning of the os)
[16:04] <Ek|mu5> Blackmane, just your "Personal" settings
[16:04] <andrew________> So where are the settings for update manager proxy?
[16:05] <Blackmane> Ek|mu5, did i delete any programs?
[16:05] <andrew________> 8.10 I can't seem to do it on
[16:05] <Ek|mu5> Blackmane, no just the user settings for kyle for various programs
[16:06] <jacob_> hi rooom
[16:06] <Carlie_> Hy people!
[16:06] <llutz> Blackmane:only if you installed your own local stuff
[16:06] <Ek|mu5> Blackmane, the system will work fine without that user
[16:06] <Guest52056> i need help do u play dvd on unbuntu 9.4
[16:07] <arvind_khadri> !dvd | Guest52056
[16:07] <tyler_> mount error(12): Cannot allocate memory
[16:07] <tyler_> Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs) does this mean im out of ram?
[16:07] <Ek|mu5> Guest52056, put it in the drive and open the movie player, it should prompt you to install the necessary codecs
[16:07] <Blackmane> Ek|mu5, okay, just the settings, and things like pictures, music, etc.? no need to reformat lol?
[16:07] <isa> ola
[16:08] <manster> Ek|mu5, http://pastie.org/893592 heres my dmesg output. there is no "camera" or "eye"
[16:08] <om26er> isa, english only :)
[16:08] <manster> how do i find it?
[16:08] <Blackmane> llutz, i didnt break any program?
[16:08] <isa> hello please spanish
[16:08] <Slart> !es | isa

[16:08] <Ek|mu5> Blackmane, no need
[16:08] <Blackmane> Ek|mu5, thanks, this is frustrating
[16:09] <Ek|mu5> jacob__, with windows codecs some will
[16:09] <Ek|mu5> Blackmane, no prob :D
[16:09] <Slart> jacob__: did you follow the instructions that the bot gives you when you type !dvd?
[16:09] <Slart> !dvd | jacob__
[16:09] <jacob__> ty u
[16:10] <Blackmane> Ek|mu5, in the future would a back up program have helped me out?
[16:10] <Jimi_Neutral> aghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
[16:11] <Ek|mu5> manster, sorry can't read your dmesg right now, having problems with X locking up when I scroll down long pages
[16:12] <alokito> how to make a proxy server in ubuntu?
[16:12] <alokito> server is linux, clients are XP
[16:12] <Ek|mu5> manster, but it worked before with the older kernel right? try booting into the kernel that had it working
[16:12] <manster> Ek|mu5, :(  love/hate linux
[16:12] <llutz> !info squid > alokito
[16:12] <manster> Ek|mu5, good man
[16:12] <Ek|mu5> manster, tell me about it...
[16:13] <jacob__> ok got it to wrk ty u all ok
[16:13] <Ek|mu5> manster, if it works, it'll kick the crap out of anything else, if you've got hardware problems like we do, either we wait for the patch or freaking patch the code ourselves... :D
[16:13] <Deffo> Why can't I recover Evolution's settings by shutting it down and copying the ~/.evolution -folder from a backup-drive over?
[16:14] <Dyl> Shut up ypu people!
[16:14] <Ek|mu5> Deffo, tried that before...
[16:14] <sipior> Dyl: can you find the door on your own?
[16:14] <Dyl> What the hell is wrong with you!
[16:14] <llutz> sipior: helphim
[16:15] <kcg> hi, im trying to restore grub2 but i got to the stage of update-grub and i get the grub-probe error which it couldn't find a device, can anyone help? thanks
[16:15] <sipior> llutz: there's no helping him, i imagine :-)
[16:15] <Deffo> Ek|mu5 , and did it work?
[16:15] <llutz> too bad
[16:16] <Ek|mu5> Deffo, sadly no...
[16:16] <Deffo> Ek|mu5 , i cant see whats Evolutions problem with that. if it can load from the folder after reboot, why cant it now?!
[16:17] <Mkools> iceroot: Can you please give me the link to search help?
[16:17] <Ek|mu5> Deffo, hmmm... did you include the .camel_certs folder? might be worth a shot since it's what goes along with the .evolution folder
[16:17] <Mkools> about evolution.
[16:18] <SealedWithAKiss> I am connected to a network via VPN, however when I attempt to access network resources or ping IP addresses on the remote network my computer attempted to connect to machines on my local LAN instead of the remote LAN. I hope that makes sense. How do I solve this?
[16:19] <Deffo> Ek|mu5 , i mounted a complete home-partition from a backup to the undamaged root-partition.
[16:19] <Deffo> Ek|mu5 , maybe any still open lock-files, or corrupted caches, that prevent it from opening the configuration?
[16:19] <OPPressed> SealedWithAKiss, route cmd
[16:20] <Ek|mu5> Deffo, your guess is as good as mine :(
[16:20] <optofer> nesesito hacer una consulta ?alguien con tiempo¿
[16:20] <Lint01> !es
[16:20] <SealedWithAKiss> OPPressed, I don't understand what you mean.
[16:20] <optofer> ok
[16:21] <OPPressed> SealedWithAKiss, you need to setup the routing and tell it which gateway to use for which network/ips
[16:21] <iceroot> Mkools: http://www.emailaddressmanager.com/tips/mail-settings.html
[16:21] <OPPressed> ie, all 10.0.0.0 traffic uses gateway 10.10.1.1
[16:21] <Ek|mu5> Deffo, not really that familiar with Evolution since Thunderbird is still my choice of e-mail client. but I'd think it was a file system issue in your case
[16:21] <SealedWithAKiss> OPPressed, how can I configure that in Ubuntu 9.10?
[16:21] <OPPressed> are you using the network manager GUI to configure your VPN? you can set it up in the GUI
[16:21] <Ek|mu5> SealedWithAKiss, he means you probably have a routing issue with the VPN
[16:21] <OPPressed> in Configure VPN
[16:22] <SealedWithAKiss> Ek|mu5, thanks for your information earlier, I have the connection up and running now.
[16:23] <Ek|mu5> SealedWithAKiss, no prob, as for the routing issue, the most common is subnet overlap, i.e. your LAN subnet (192.168.0.0/24) is the same as the lan on the other end of the VPN...
[16:23] <SealedWithAKiss> OPPressed, you mean configure the routing on my locak machine? Or on the remote LAN? I'm confused.
[16:23] <OPPressed> on your local machine
[16:23] <frxstrem> has Ubuntu got Python pre-installed, like Perl, or will I have to install it myself?
[16:23] <SealedWithAKiss> Ek|mu5, I have a subnet overlap. My local LAN and the remote LAN use the same subnet.
[16:23] <DopeGhoti> frxstrem: I believe it's preinstalled.
[16:23] <Ek|mu5> SealedWithAKiss, ouch!
[16:23] <OPPressed> ie.. route add net 10.10.0.0 netmask 255.255.0.0 10.10.1.1
[16:24] <aeon-ltd> anyone using 10.04 here? hows the speed (during use and boot)? compared to 9.10?

[16:24] <Ek|mu5> SealedWithAKiss, then you'd have to do binat on the VPN...
[16:24] <SealedWithAKiss> Ek|mu5, so I have to change my local subnet? Binat on the VNP?
[16:25] <justinjstark> Anybody know the name of that app that can display command line output and such on the desktop background?
[16:25] <Ek|mu5> SealedWithAKiss, Binat is the way to do it if you can't renumber the LAN you're connecting to over the VPN
[16:25] <SealedWithAKiss> Ek|mu5, would changing my local subnet mask solve the problem?
[16:25] <OPPressed> sealed.. right click network manager, edit connections, ipv4 settings, click routes... add your router's IP as the default route
[16:25] <OPPressed> then go to configure VPN, click routes again
[16:26] <SealedWithAKiss> Ek|mu5, I don't understand what binat is, Google doesn't throw up much either.
[16:26] <Mkools> iceroot: the incoming mail server on yahoo is to be server text box of receive Email tab of evolution?
[16:26] <OPPressed> and add your VPN's gateway as the destination for the vpn IPs, click use this conenction only for resources blah blah
[16:27] <Ek|mu5> SealedWithAKiss, it would if only temporarily, but since you are using VPN to connect to your home LAN from an unsecured public access network, then I suggest you renumber your home LAN to some uncommon subnet
[16:27] <OPPressed> ^that would help too
[16:28] <MariachiAC> Hello. I am wondering if i update to lucid with do-release-upgrade -d will i experience audio problems with speech later since I use assistive technology to access the computer.
[16:28] <SealedWithAKiss> Ek|mu5, so once the networks are operating on different subnets my computer will recognise the difference between the networks and route the traffic accordingly?
[16:29] <Ek|mu5> SealedWithAKiss, for most setups, yes
[16:29] <OPPressed> no you will prob still have to setup your routes :>
[16:29] <OPPressed> at least I did with Ubuntu and my vpn
[16:29] <Ek|mu5> SealedWithAKiss, the overlap puts your routing table into confusion
[16:29] <epaphus> Hello, does the minimal CD iso have support to do softraid ??
[16:29] <cx42> Hi there
[16:29] <cx42> I'm having some problems with my sound card, in fact, I have no sound :s can you help me please ?
[16:29] <cx42> here is some info : http://pastebin.com/uQjXH25v
[16:29] <cx42> everything looks normal, I have the sound icon displayed, without being in mute mode
[16:30] <ManDay> My screen just flashed black and now I got a little Icon sitting in my notify area saying something about "Session active, not inhibited, screen idle, if you can see this text ...", though everything is normal - do I have to be afraid?
[16:30] <cx42> when I play a music, pulseaudio displays it, with sounds volume
[16:30] <cx42> everything looks fine but I have nothing in output
[16:30] <cx42> of course, I tried all the hole for my connection cable
[16:30] <Ek|mu5> SealedWithAKiss, OPPressed is right, you will still have to set up your routes... In the case of OpenVPN, the server will push the route to the client
[16:31] <cx42> I saw there is some issues with the CK804 AC'97 Audio Controller, but couldn't find any helpful resources
[16:31] <Ek|mu5> SealedWithAKiss, PPTP I'm not familiar with so I won't be much help on the configurations
[16:31] <xenaxon> Cd has finished downloading
[16:32] <xenaxon> I hope it recognizes my laptop's hdd
[16:33] <SealedWithAKiss> Ek|mu5, you're a star. It's working now. Thanks. How did you know that>
[16:33] <Ek|mu5> SealedWithAKiss, had those problems too when I was setting up my VPN :D
[16:34] <Ek|mu5> SealedWithAKiss, the Binat solution i did on OpenBSD's pf with 1 line, I don't know how to do it with iptables...
[16:35] <Ek|mu5> SealedWithAKiss, seriously though, if you still have control of the VPN network, renumber it to something less common
[16:36] <SealedWithAKiss> Ek|mu5, why something less common? Right now I'm going with 192.168.1.0/24 and 192.168.2.0/24
[16:36] <fn00dle> Hello. I´m running into issues when trying to perform a clean installtion of ubuntu 9.10 using the live CD. The CD does boot, but when I select English and then Install Ubuntu, the CD hangs.
[16:37] <manster> Ek|mu5, still no luck
[16:37] <manster> how can i find out the camera model
[16:37] <manster> on my lappy
[16:37] <SwimmingRat> Can you help me? My Ubuntu freezes. Repeatedly.  Is 9.10, up from 9.04. 32 bit AMD. No fancy stuff. Use xchat, FF, Chrome, Transmission.  --- someone asked me about what dmesg says... This is it. http://pastebin.com/UgYqvvcX [extra data=chatroulette doesnt work, igoogle comes out funny tho javascript is installed. AND I would like to disable flash in chrome so I can see if that is it but I dont know how)
[16:37] <Trek> manster: why?
[16:37] <llutz> manster: lsusb
[16:37] <manster> it doesnt show in dsmesg
[16:38] <manster> its built-in
[16:38] <Ek|mu5> SealedWithAKiss, the chances of those subnets being used by another public network are high, so if say you're in the airport and the access point is using the same subnet, you're pretty much screwed
[16:38] <manster> all the instructions online are skewed for usb cams
[16:38] <Trek> manster: o.O  do me this: pastebin the output of lspci
[16:38] <Ek|mu5> manster, even with the old kernel?
[16:38] <Ek|mu5> manster, do you have acpi=off?
[16:38] <llutz> manster: lsusb, most internal cams ARE sub
[16:38] <manster> Ek|mu5, ya still "no camera found"
[16:39] <llutz> usb
[16:39] <manster> llutz, gotya
[16:39] <Scotie> Hallo
[16:40] <manster> from my lspci http://pastie.org/893639
[16:40] <fn00dle> Hello. I´m running into issues when trying to perform a clean installtion of ubuntu 9.10 using the live CD. The CD does boot, but when I select English and then Install Ubuntu, the CD hangs.
[16:41] <Ek|mu5> SealedWithAKiss, pick the RFC 1918 subnets that are obscure
[16:41] <manster> llutz, my lsusb never lists my cam even when it was working
[16:41] <manster> thats why i thought the usb instructions didnt apply to me
[16:41] <ManDay> Who is reponsible for the updates to a certain package in the universe repositories??
[16:41] <manster> i tried them anyway
[16:41] <manster> to no avail
[16:41] <Scotie> What is the ratio between In and out by regular webbrowsing using
[16:41] <Ek|mu5> SealedWithAKiss, or do binat if you can't renumber
[16:42] <jbrejner> I've messed up my sudoer file... can anyone help me out
[16:42] <manster> Trek, from my lspci http://pastie.org/893639
[16:42] <SealedWithAKiss> Ek|mu5, oh I see exactly what you mean now. I'm just going to get another subnet overlap when using a different network. I'll change it to something more obscure!
[16:42] <claptrap> Anyone know how I can get Wine to stop covering cairo-dock?
[16:42] <V4mpire> anyone here know much about backing up and directadmin as provider seem to know very little... i know its offtopic but not getting anywhere with provider nor directadmin themselves its not on ubuntu but thought on off chance someone here might know and could msg me
[16:43] <running_rabbit07> Buenes dias
[16:43] <Ek|mu5> SealedWithAKiss, good for you if you can still renumber the network :D
[16:43] <running_rabbit07> Has the official code name for 10.10 been decided yet?
[16:43] <edbian> Lucid Lynx
[16:44] <Trek> manster: pastebin the output of lsusb for me as well
[16:44] <Slart> fn00dle: have you checked the cd using the option in the boot menu?
[16:44] <edbian> running_rabbit07, Whoops, nevermind.  misread you
[16:44] <Ek|mu5> edbian, that's for 10.04
[16:44] <running_rabbit07> that ok
[16:44] <Trek> running_rabbit07: thats not planned yet, and thats not for discussion here
[16:44] <ManDay> Who is reponsible for the updates to a certain package in the universe repositories??
[16:44] <Trek> !pm | manster
[16:44] <fn00dle> Slart: I´m getting into the CD and the options menu in the CD.
[16:44] <SealedWithAKiss> Ek|mu5, it's a single host network I can renumber it all day long.
[16:44] <fn00dle> But when I select an option the CD freezes.
[16:45] <Slart> fn00dle: oh.. doesn't matter what option you select?
[16:45] <fn00dle> Nope
[16:45] <Ek|mu5> SealedWithAKiss, well you're in luck, but check out binat just in case you have to deal with a network that's in "production"
[16:45] <fn00dle> And it´s a fresh ISO just downloaded on a CD I just got out of the package.
[16:45] <Slart> fn00dle: you can still check the md5 checksum from another operating system..
[16:45] <Slart> !md5 | fn00dle
[16:45] <LinuX2half> Hi, I want to know what's the location when a device is mounted on my desktop?
[16:46] <edbian> LinuX2half, /media/XXX
[16:46] <SealedWithAKiss> Ek|mu5, I will do. Do you have any professional IT certifications/qualifications? Out of interest?
[16:46] <manster> hello?
[16:46] <fn00dle> I´ll check that.
[16:46] <fn00dle> Mom
[16:46] <manster> Trek, from lsub http://pastie.org/893655
[16:46] <Ek|mu5> SealedWithAKiss, nope, just a certificate in RTFM :D
[16:47] <Ek|mu5> SealedWithAKiss, but getting my CCNA soon
[16:47] <Trek> manster: your webcam isn't being detected in *nix, which means that the system doesn't even recognize it exists, only thing I can recommend is bothreing the manufacturer about that
[16:47] <LinuX2half> Well I went into the media folder and select each folder but my device doesn't seem to appear on either one.
[16:47] <SealedWithAKiss> Ek|mu5, I'd like a CCNA.
[16:47] <rocket16> I recently installed Ubuntu Studio atop Ubuntu, and my Software Center got replaced with Add/Remove! What to do?
[16:47] <manster> Trek, i think thats about right
[16:47] <manster> thanks
[16:47] <LinuX2half> I'm just mounting a device over a USB
[16:48] <running_rabbit07> add/remove works just the same if not better
[16:48] <Ek|mu5> SealedWithAKiss, wouldn't we all, but enough OT... :D
[16:48] <fn00dle> Slart: Where can I find the checksum the CD should have?
[16:48] <running_rabbit07> I am half way through my CCNA
[16:48] <running_rabbit07> easy class
[16:49] <Ek|mu5> hey, anyone get around to fixing the xorg/gnome-power-manager bug on 9.10?
[16:49] <SealedWithAKiss> Ek|mu5, alrighty then. Well thanks for the help anyway.
[16:49] <Ek|mu5> SealedWithAKiss, you're welcome
[16:49] <rocket16> I recently installed Ubuntu Studio atop Ubuntu, and my Software Center got replaced with Add/Remove! What to do?
[16:49] <Trek> !repeat | rocket16
[16:49] <Slart> fn00dle: it's available on the cd itself
[16:49] <running_rabbit07> rocket16, add/remove works just the same if not better
[16:49] <rocket16> Yes, but to me, Sftware Centre is better
[16:50] <C-S-B-N900> apt-get all the way for me.
[16:50] <Ek|mu5> rocket16, it's mostly the same
[16:50] <ajip> should i defrag my Ubuntu aplications? http://is.gd/b5iEZ
[16:50] <fn00dle> Lol.
[16:50] <Ek|mu5> ajip, this isn't windows
[16:50] <fn00dle> WinMd5Sum cannot create an md5 of a whole CD
[16:50] <Ek|mu5> ajip, but if you must, fsck -a
[16:51] <Ek|mu5> :q
[16:51] <Slart> ajip: there are no defraggers available for the common file systems on linux.. don't fill the drive up completely and it shouldn't be a problem
[16:51] <Ek|mu5> whoops... vi xterm overlap...
[16:51] <bastid_raZor> ajip: backup data before using this program?? that sounds a bit malicious to me
[16:52] <ajip> See this http://www.webupd8.org/2010/03/install-defrag-defragmentation.html
[16:52] <Ek|mu5> ajip, you _do not_ need to do that
[16:52] <bastid_raZor> ajip: that is where i read the 'warning'
[16:52] <Deffo> Ek|mu5 , I just found out, that Evolution's config isnt actually in .evolution, but in .gconf/apps/evolution ....
[16:53] <Ek|mu5> Deffo, good to know, so did you get it to work?
[16:53] <fn00dle> Slart: The md5 sum of the ISO matches the one on the CD itself.
[16:54] <Slart> fn00dle: hmm.. then I don't really know what to try.. sometimes the live cd hangs or doesn't boot correctly.. but the menu usually works
[16:54] <Ek|mu5> Deffo, the tarball for a backup contains just 2 folders: .evolution + .camel_certs in my case
[16:54] <eXeC001er> Hi
[16:54] <fn00dle> What menu do you mean?
[16:54] <fn00dle> With menu
[16:54] <fn00dle> What menu. :P
[16:54] <Ek|mu5> Slart, acpi=off
[16:54] <ajip> Ok guyz! thanks for the information!
[16:54] <Ek|mu5> ajip, no prob
[16:54] <Slart> fn00dle: the menu you get when you boot from the live cd.. where you can choose to install, run the live cd, check memory etc
[16:54] <Deffo> Ek|mu5 , not yet. it seems to have overwritten that already, so atm I try to figure out how gconf works
[16:55] <LinuX2half> whats the location of my device if its mounted on my computer?
[16:55] <Ek|mu5> LinuX2half, /mnt
[16:55] <llutz> LinuX2half: "mount" tells you
[16:55] <fn00dle> Will I have any chance burning the CD again, Slart?
[16:55] <Slart> Ek|mu5: not sure if that would help.. it seems it's the menu on the live cd that hangs
[16:55] <fn00dle> Or is it my machine?
[16:56] <fn00dle> Will try that option Ek|mu5.
[16:56] <Ek|mu5> fn00dle, try acpi=off, on most new hardware the installer mucks up
[16:56] <Slart> fn00dle: if you're running low on blank cd's you could try that cd in another machine.. but sure.. burning a new cd might work
[16:56] <LinuX2half> but the device isn't located at /mnt
[16:56] <fn00dle> I have 50 in front of me. :P
[16:56] <Ek|mu5> fn00dle, or a bootable USB stick :D
[16:56] <fn00dle> If that option won´t work, I´ll try a new CD. :)
[16:56] <eXeC001er> Somebado knows how can i configure OSS to output sound via HDMI on chipset amd 780 (ALC 885)?
[16:56] <fn00dle> Lol.
[16:57] <fn00dle> Now it says
[16:57] <fn00dle> Media test failure.
[16:57] <LinuX2half> I went inside the file and the device isn't there.
[16:57] <fn00dle> but the cd does boot
[16:57] <fn00dle> Trying with acpi=off
[16:57] <LinuX2half> I'm trying to create a directory but mkdir said that it doesn't exist
[16:57] <fn00dle> Laptop is about two years old btw.
[16:57] <Ek|mu5> LinuX2half, mount
[16:57] <fn00dle> But back then I could install ubuntu without trouble.
[16:58] <Ek|mu5> fn00dle, could be your drive or bad RAM
[16:58] <LinuX2half> So you're suggesting that I should type "mount" on the command line?
[16:58] <fn00dle> acpi=off hangs too.
[16:58] <Ek|mu5> LinuX2half, yes without any args
[16:58] <fn00dle> I have to go now.
[16:58] <fn00dle> Thank you for helping anyway. :)
[16:58] <Bish> hey guys, non-ubuntu-guy here, does ubuntu have alsa modules in kernel? or do i have apt-get it?
[16:58] <fn00dle> Will try a new CD when I get back.
[16:58] <Ek|mu5> fn00dle, no prob
[16:59] <fn00dle> Have a good day!!!
[16:59] <Ek|mu5> I ended up answering questions instead of having mine answered... :D
[16:59] <LinuX2half> hm, well it doesn't seem to say what's mounted or not.
[17:00] <Ek|mu5> LinuX2half, it should say what's mounted
[17:00] <C-S-B-N900> LinuX2half: what are you trying?
[17:01] <Ek|mu5> bye all
[17:01] <LinuX2half> Maybe I should post the result then,  http://paste.ubuntu.com/406053/
[17:02] <LinuX2half> Well I'm trying to create a directory on the device but mkdir said that it doesn't exist
[17:02] <Trek> LinuX2half: you sure you put a partition on there?
[17:02] <Trek> LinuX2half: you sure you have write access?
[17:03] <LinuX2half> Write Access? Maybe Not.
[17:04] <LinuX2half> well when I click properties on the device, going to the permission tab, it said it could not be determined
[17:05] <LinuX2half> What do you mean a partition on there?
[17:06] <LinuX2half> My device has a afc partition, I guess
[17:06] <LinuX2half> Well its just the format...
[17:09] <nasrullah> hi to all

[17:23] <ntsasng> help me
[17:23] <bastid_raZor> Slart: yeah, the manpage doesn't include a -F option anymore.
[17:23] <LinuX2half> switch10_: Thanks for link, but when I reach the step that requires you to replace the UUID, it said that the ipod-read-sysinfo-extended command not found.
[17:23] <Guest25735> Hi! I have an nfs mount entry in fstab. On bootup sometimes the filesystem gets mounted and sometimes not. Logs contain no error messages. What can I check?
[17:23] <Ricoshady> I've noticed a pretty serious bug. I have a windows share mounted on a linux box, and when files are being updated on the windows side, the linux version continue to share the *OLD* content, even though the timestamp of the file is correct. If I unmount and remount, the problem is fixed.
[17:24] <neo644> Hey, can someone help me find the ffmpeg encoders for MPEG AAC audio and MPEG 4 video?
[17:24] <switch10_> LinuX2half: you've gotten your UUID?
[17:24] <switch10_> LinuX2half: 40 char?
[17:24] <LinuX2half> switch10_: Yes.
[17:25] <ZykoticK9> neo644, the ffmpeg in the repository can't output AAC audio due to bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/faac/+bug/374900 if you want MP4 with AAC can I recommend using Handbrake instead.
[17:25] <Slart> bastid_raZor: but it doesn't complain if you try to run   shutdown -F +5   it complains about other made up switches though..
[17:25] <ManDay> What is the tool that corresponds to APT-GET to find packages based on information about that package???
[17:25] <neo644> ZykoticK9, will that work with VLC?
[17:25] <DopeGhoti> ManDay: apt-cache search
[17:25] <Slart> ManDay: apt-cache show <packagename>
[17:26] <ZykoticK9> neo644, it certainly should
[17:26] <blakkheim> do you need just audio or audio and video?
[17:26] <switch10_> LinuX2half: all you should have to type in is "ipod-read-sys and hit tab and it will fill the rest in for you.
[17:26] <ManDay> DopeGhoti, ah right thanks. screw the damn manuals "see also" is useless as usual
[17:26] <Slart> ManDay: or apt-cache search to actually search.. sorry
[17:26] <ManDay> thanks slackd00d
[17:26] <ManDay> slart,
[17:26] <switch10_> LinuX2half: then put in your 40 char UUID, then the mount point
[17:26] <daniracz> hey
[17:26] <svscvsc> How to get kernel sources on jaunty?
[17:26] <svscvsc> as in /usr/src/linux (or is that the issue, I need to specify another directory?)
[17:26] <svscvsc> also tried: apt-get install fakeroot kernel-wedge build-essential makedumpfile kernel-package
[17:26] <DopeGhoti> ManDay: helpful tip- 'man -k «keword»' to search for commands related to your keyword
[17:26] <svscvsc> tried apt-get build-dep linux
[17:26] <FloodBot2> svscvsc: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[17:27] <neo644> ZykoticK9, and that will also be findable in the 9.04 repo, corrrect?
[17:27] <daniracz> i have sound problems on ubuntu 9.10
[17:27] <daniracz> can anybody help me?
[17:27] <switch10_> LinuX2half: if that does not work, you do not have all the required packages installed
[17:27] <ManDay> DopeGhoti, i dont know, with all the redundancies i never do... apropos, info, man, man -k   how many others are there...
[17:27] <ZykoticK9> neo644, Handbrake isn't in the repos - download DEB from http://handbrake.fr/downloads.php
[17:27] <ManDay> thanks tho DopeGhoti
[17:28] <raj-darkmystery> daniracz: wht do u mean by have a sound problem in 9.10?
[17:28] <jose__> I am having a problem with one of my servers. It does not boot, I get a "Booting the controller kernel" message from adaptec
[17:28] <ZykoticK9> neo644, any program in the Ubuntu repos won't have support for AAC
[17:28] <jose__> whois _harri_
[17:28] <LinuX2half> switch10_: is this what I should receive? usage: ipod-read-sysinfo-extended <device|uuid|bus device> <mountpoint>
[17:29] <switch10_> LinuX2half: no you did not input either the mount point, or your UUID correctly
[17:29] <vick> i just removed python and it removed a lot of things with it by mistake, is there any way to undo that ?
[17:29] <ManDay> Does anyone know where I can find THIS: configure: X11/extensions/shape.h header (xorg-x11-proto-devel) MUST be installed ?
[17:29] <Tonisius> can't seem to connect my vnc server to it, using Ubuntu Hardy LTS (still supported!!!)
[17:29] <ManDay> I cannot find it in aptitude nor apt-cache
[17:30] <LinuX2half> Huh, looks like I'm going to need some exta information.
[17:30] <sixofour> so i am following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenSound , and i did the murcuial [how ever its spelled] but the build commands are not working
[17:30] <sixofour> i'm installing oss4
[17:30] <neo644> ZykoticK9, it appears that it cant find libsoup2.4-1, is there an older one available that would be better suited for 9.04?
[17:30] <LinuX2half> how do i know what bus drive that its mounted on?
[17:30] <zorn_> hello. An application needs a SHARED library (libblas), but if i locate the library, i found that it is in a directory belonging to a binary application i have previously installed. How can i tell to the system to look for the library in that directory?
[17:31] <LinuX2half> I mean device
[17:31] <switch10_> LinuX2half: unplug all usb devices (except ipod), and then look up your UUID again.
[17:31] <vick> How can i install all cached .deb packages or so maybe that can solve the problem i did with removing things by mistake ?
[17:32] <switch10_> LinuX2half: It should be 40 characters long
[17:32] <ZykoticK9> neo644, sorry man, if it doesn't work in 9.04 I'm affraid I don't know how to fix that -- if you want to output for mobile devices there is a program at http://www.miksoft.net/mobileMediaConverter.htm that "might" help - i've never used it myself though
[17:32] <switch10_> LinuX2half: copy and paste the UUID to gedit.
[17:33] <LinuX2half> switch10_: There's no other device connected but I did get these messages below the UUID: can't get hub descriptor: Operation not permitted
[17:33] <LinuX2half> can't get device qualifier: Operation not permitted
[17:33] <LinuX2half> can't get debug descriptor: Operation not permitted
[17:33] <LinuX2half> cannot read device status, Operation not permitted (1)
[17:33] <FloodBot2> LinuX2half: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[17:33] <switch10_> LinuX2half: pm me
[17:34] <ZykoticK9> neo644, actually you could try HandbrakeCLI version (but it's command line only, and not nearly as nice)
[17:34] <switch10_> LinuX2half: do:    sudo lsusb -v | grep -i iSerial
[17:34] <LinuX2half> switch10_: here's the http://paste.ubuntu.com/406069/
[17:35] <switch10_> LinuX2half: yeah you need to run as root.  see my last message
[17:36] <blakkheim> ZykoticK9: or much NICER, depending on the person using it
[17:36] <LinuX2half> switch10_: alright then this should be more like it. http://paste.ubuntu.com/406070/
[17:36] <ZykoticK9> blakkheim, true - it's actually the only working version in Lucid right now, so it's what I'm using, but...
[17:37] <LinuX2half> switch10_: I did have the 40 characters UUID but the command need to have certain usuage
[17:37] <switch10_> LinuX2half: yes, you replaces the 40 characters I assume?
[17:37] <svscvsc> --- getting kernel sources in jaunty?
[17:37] <svscvsc> I tried some apt-gets that were in wiki, but I still get same compile problem
[17:37] <switch10_> replaced*
[17:38] <Penquite> Hi all, I am hosting a web server for a mate's website, which has recently had a script added to allow emails to be sent from the site. Could anyone recommend a mailer to use as I am told sendmail is not secure, and also any recommendations as to how to make sure I secure it properly.
[17:38] <svscvsc> basic question: apt-get WHAT to get jernel sources in jaunty? it changed after intrepid
[17:38] <svscvsc> *kernel
[17:38] <blakkheim> svscvsc: apt-get source packagename
[17:38] <svscvsc> blakkheim, no, I want the kernel sources
[17:39] <jose__> I am having a problem with one of my servers. It does not boot, I get a "Booting the controller kernel" message from adaptec
[17:39] <svscvsc> I tried apt-get build-dep linux
[17:39] <anto9us> !postfix > Penquite
[17:39] <blakkheim> svscvsc: if you use the kernel's package name that will give you the kernel sources
[17:39] <LinuX2half> switch10_: I still receive the same message.
[17:39] <svscvsc> blakkheim, what is the kernels package name?
[17:39] <blakkheim> svscvsc: search for linux-image and find the one you're using
[17:39] <switch10_> LinuX2half: whats the message?  which step?
[17:40] <svscvsc> find the one what I am using? I am on jaunty
[17:40] <svscvsc> find which kernel I am using?
[17:40] <blakkheim> svscvsc: yes
[17:40] <Penquite> anto9us, thank you.
[17:40] <magnetic> yo
[17:40] <svscvsc> what do you mean by 'search for linux-image' you mean search on file system?
[17:40] <magnetic> what's up?
[17:40] <svscvsc> @ blakkheim
[17:40] <blakkheim> svscvsc: search with aptitude
[17:41] <arand> svscvsc: Or in synaptic package manager
[17:41] <svscvsc> apt-get search linux-image or the likes?
[17:41] <genii> svscvsc: sudo apt-get update && apt-cache search $(uname -r)| grep kernel
[17:41] <trism> svscvsc: dpkg -l linux-image* is probably what you need
[17:41] <switch10_> LinuX2half: ipod-read-sysinfo-extended KGJFH39GJ5N3B7N4M6B3F2H5GDK79SH49GJTH48G /media/ipod
[17:41] <LinuX2half> switch10_: oh I see
[17:41] <elb0w> how do you tell ubuntu to shutdown without popping up that gui?
[17:41] <switch10_> LinuX2half: the input should look like this
[17:41] <blakkheim> elb0w: poweroff
[17:42] <elb0w> how do you reboot it without the gui?
[17:42] <LinuX2half> switch10_: alright it got through
[17:42] <switch10_> LinuX2half: replace the UUID with yours, and the mount point with yours..
[17:42] <blakkheim> elb0w: reboot
[17:42] <elb0w> thats it?
[17:42] <blakkheim> elb0w: as root, yes
[17:42] <svscvsc> genii that doesn't work as it is a VPS
[17:42] <LinuX2half> switch10_: thanks for the help :)
[17:42] <edbian> elb0w, sudo shutdown -r now
[17:42] <svscvsc> uname -r gives a custom string
[17:42] <switch10_> LinuX2half: no problem
[17:43] <svscvsc> trism, do you mean 'dpkg -l linux-image*' verbatim
[17:43] <bobiwembley> $
[17:43] <bubbles|> hi
[17:43] <bubbles|> what's the name of semi-graphical paket manager in ubuntu?
[17:43] <LinuX2half> switch10_: Alright, now I'll restart and see what happens.
[17:43] <svscvsc> or you mean * means 'insert something else here' not as a wildcard
[17:43] <elb0w> ha edbian thats what I was looking for
[17:43] <trism> svscvsc: sorry, I thought you were doing something else, that will list installed kernels
[17:43] <elb0w> ah*
[17:43] <elb0w> both work though
[17:43] <svscvsc> oh
[17:43] <switch10_> LinuX2half: let me know if it works
[17:43] <edbian> elb0w, No prob
[17:43] <elb0w> ty
[17:43] <LinuX2half> switch10: Sure thing.
[17:43] <svscvsc> yeah, none installed apparently trism
[17:44] <bubbles|> what's the name of that semi-graphical paket manager in ubuntu?
[17:44] <svscvsc> blakkheim, genii - what else can I do? I want to compile alsa, I have build-essential, some other libs, but no kernel sources. Is there another way of determining my kernel?
[17:44] <svscvsc> maybe it is customized because it is a VPS?
[17:45] <svscvsc> Why do I need it to compile alsa... I guess this compiles into the kernel itself? or just uses sourceS?
[17:45] <tyler_d> I am looking for photo(digital) recovery software for ubuntu
[17:46] <ardian> do you need to be root for installing UnrealIRCD ?
[17:46] <ZykoticK9> tyler_, check out photorec
[17:47] <iceroot> ardian: you need to be always root if using apt-get, if you build it from source in ~/ you dont need to be root
[17:47] <tyler_d> ZykoticK9: ty
[17:47] <wincer25> ciao
[17:47] <ardian> iceroot, im going to build it from source thanks for the answer
[17:47] <wincer25> c'è qualcuno che mi dice cosa devo scaricare x  creare la barra con le applicazioni???
[17:48] <wildc4rd> evenin' all
[17:48] <raj-darkmystery> u too wildc4rd
[17:48] <svscvsc> pfffffffffffffffffft darn it. I just want to compile alsa... it works on my other jaunty, but this one is virtualised
[17:48] <svscvsc> grrr
[17:48] <LinuX2half> switch10_: hey I'm back
[17:48] <LinuX2half> switch10_: so how would I add music to the device?
[17:49] <switch10_> LinuX2half: I use Rhythmbox
[17:49] <switch10_> LinuX2half: I have not tested any other players with the ipod touch
[17:49] <LinuX2half> switch10_: I'm using it right now.
[17:50] <jcnr> hol
[17:51] <switch10_> LinuX2half: it takes a little longer to sync, but there are some added benefits.  You can add OGG files!!  Itunes cant even read an OGG file.  Rhythbox converts it, but its still pretty cool.
[17:51] <jcnr> hola estoy  buscando  unirme al desarrollo
[17:51] <ZykoticK9> !es | jcnr
[17:51] <jcnr> ok
[17:51] <LinuX2half> switch10_: Yep, its pretty neat. Could you also add videos as well?
[17:52] <switch10_> LinuX2half: not yet....
[17:52] <LinuX2half> switch10_: well no matter, I'm sure the day will come
[17:53] <switch10_> LinuX2half: yes it will.
[17:53] <LinuX2half> switch10_: at least  I don't have to install windows to add music to my device
[17:53] <switch10_> LinuX2half: we just have to worry about apple breaking this with a firmware update...
[17:54] <switch10_> LinuX2half: I have no reason to update, myself.  and Im pretty sure they charge ipod touch users to upgrade
[17:54] <LinuX2half> switch10_: You mean Apple will develop a firmware version that'll block this sync?
[17:54] <switch10_> LinuX2half: yes
[17:54] <LinuX2half> switch10_: that's crazy
[17:54] <switch10_> LinuX2half: apple has a weird outlook on life :)
[17:55] <LinuX2half> switch10_: So particularly so does firmware update does to the device? Enhance more feature and security?
[17:55] <switch10_> LinuX2half: they want you to sync their devices with Itunes and only Itunes
[17:56] <bubbles|> where can i find aptitude?
[17:56] <switch10_> LinuX2half: supposedly.
[17:56] <LinuX2half> switch10_: yeah typical, they all want to profit from the market
[17:56] <switch10_> bubbles|: open a term:            aptitude
[17:56] <bubbles|> switch10_ it's not installed on my system
[17:56] <blakkheim> bubbles|: /usr/bin
[17:57] <LinuX2half> switch10_: Well, seems that you're busy with another user, I'll say farewell. Thanks for your assistance!
[17:57] <switch10_> bubbles|: is this a server?
[17:58] <bubbles|> switch10_ aptitude isn't in there
[17:58] <bubbles|> yes
[17:58] <bubbles|> or maybe you can recomend me a lightweight windows manager to run synaptics on?
[17:59] <switch10_> bubbles|: you dont have apt-get either than right?
[17:59] <bubbles|> no, i have apt-get
[17:59] <blakkheim> bubbles|: awesome, dwm, xmonad, openbox
[17:59] <bubbles|> blakkheim yes, which one of those?
[17:59] <blakkheim> bubbles|: i like all of them :P
[18:00] <switch10_> bubbles|: sudo apt-get install aptitude
[18:00] <bubbles|> which has the smallest memory footprint?
[18:00] <blakkheim> bubbles|: dwm probably
[18:00] <switch10_> bubbles|: I prefer apt-get though...
[18:00] <bubbles|> switch10_ ah, ok, it works after an apt-get update now...
[18:01] <blakkheim> aptitude is a smarter version of apt-get that handles conflicts and dependencies better
[18:01] <ZykoticK9> blakkheim, is that statement even true anymore?
[18:01] <bubbles|> and gtk apps will run on dwm?
[18:01] <blakkheim> ZykoticK9: i wouldn't have said it if it wasn't
[18:01] <blakkheim> bubbles|: yes
[18:01] <switch10_> blakkheim: its all opinion now-a-days
[18:02] <ZykoticK9> blakkheim, sorry :)
[18:02] <blakkheim> switch10_: i disagree, i've used both for a long time and aptitude handles things much more cleanly
[18:02] <blakkheim> switch10_: ZykoticK9: but if you have any advantages of apt-get over aptitude i'd be glad to hear
[18:03] <switch10_> blakkheim: its easier to type for me :) my fingers just do it..
[18:03] <blakkheim> switch10_: echo "alias apt-get='aptitude'" >> ~/.bashrc && source ~/.bashrc :P
[18:03] <raj-darkmystery> y u guys comparing apt-get n aptitude? :o
[18:03] <switch10_> blakkheim: haha
[18:04] <switch10_> blakkheim: I could..  but I really don't see the difference between the two..
[18:05] <lb1> any reason why ubuntu does not offer a "distribution version" that contains the latest upstream releases for all software?
[18:05] <blakkheim> lb1: they like old software =x
[18:05] <lb1> right now you can either choose to have 6 month-1 year old software even if a new upstream stable release is available
[18:05] <jmcantrell> is there a way to disable the windows key, just make it do nothing?
[18:05] <lb1> or use the development release, which has *unstable* packages
[18:05] <blakkheim> lb1: use something like debian sid/gentoo/arch if you want up to date, ubuntu tries to be more stable and noob friendly
[18:06] <lb1> afaik they too have the same problem
[18:06] <lb1> debian sid has unstable packages
[18:06] <blakkheim> lb1: yes they all do
[18:06] <lb1> what I'd like is a distribution that when, say, Firefox 4.0 is released, immediately includes it
[18:06] <blakkheim> lb1: all three of those would
[18:06] <lb1> but does *not* include Firefox 3.99-alpha7
[18:07] <zombi-> i added a ppa but for some reason none of the packages in it are showing up with apt-cache search :/
[18:07] <blakkheim> lb1: ok, gentoo's stable branch and arch without the [testing] repo would have what you want
[18:07] <lb1> yeah, but they will also include 3.99-alpha7
[18:07] <zombi-> anyone know why that might be?
[18:07] <zombi-> ive done apt-cache update too
[18:07] <lb1> gentoo has to be compiled by the user, which is silly; will have to check arch
[18:07] <blakkheim> lb1: it's not silly if you want control over your system
[18:07] <lb1> well, in windows things happen like you describe
[18:08] <lb1> once Mozilla releases Firefox 4.0, everyone just gets it immediately
[18:08] <Owwl> I need some help with Ubuntu 9.10
[18:08] <lb1> in ubuntu you have to wait for the next release cycle
[18:08] <blakkheim> zombi-: aptitude update
[18:08] <lb1> i.e. why second guess upstream decisions about stability?
[18:08] <C-S-B-N900> Owwl: whats the prob.
[18:08] <zombi-> blakkheim, doesnt that just do the same?
[18:09] <lb1> if a single upstream proves unreliable, then a policy to delay updates from them can be enacted, but only at that time
[18:09] <blakkheim> zombi-: you need to "refresh" your packages after adding a new repo, aptitude/apt-get update will do that
[18:09] <Slart> lb1: because ubuntu customizes a lot of the software that are in the repos.. small stuff.. changes in scripts and so on.. I guess they want to make sure everything works together as it should.. we get enough bugs and problems as it is
[18:09] <zombi-> i have, its pulling packages for the ppa but they arent showing
[18:09] <zombi-> i did use apt-get update
[18:09] <zombi-> they still dont show
[18:09] <James_blond> how to remove old kernel ?
[18:09] <lb1> btw, doesn't everyone see this problem?
[18:10] <blakkheim> James_blond: dpkg --get-selections | grep linux-image
[18:10] <lb1> of course, you can somewhat work it around with ppas
[18:10] <Slart> lb1: I don't see it as a problem, no
[18:10] <blakkheim> James_blond: then purge the ones you don't want
[18:10] <nDuff> lb1, having worn a Linux distributor hat in the past, let me just say that that wouldn't work in practice. Moving to a new gcc as soon as they say it's stable, for instance, suddenly creates a bunch of bugs in every other package, which take time to generate patches for, time to push those patches upstream, etc etc; chasing the bleeding edge is simply not feasible.
[18:10] <lb1> ok for some system packages an exception should be made
[18:10] <Slart> lb1: there are other distros that are more bleeding edge if that's what you're looking for... they also have more stuff that breaks
[18:10] <lb1> but the majority of stuff does not affect all packages
[18:11] <lb1> i.e. a new version of firefox or openoffice can and should be immediately dropped in
[18:11] <nDuff> lb1, ...except that you-the-distributor have patches that you have applied to your firefox or your openoffice that need to be ported up to the new one
[18:11] <jmcantrell> lb1: there are ppa repos if you want the latest
[18:11] <lb1> well, you shouldn't
[18:11] <nDuff> lb1, ...and other packages (like flash) which depend on or interact with your firefox and openoffice...
[18:12] <lb1> if you have so much patches that prevent you on releasing updates in a timely fashion, you should work on sending them upstream asap
[18:12] <nDuff> lb1, ...you shouldn't? So when your user has a bug that upstream is taking too long to fix but for which you've generated a working patch, you shouldn't include that patch until upstream takes it?
[18:12] <lb1> yet firefox/flash upgrade just works in windows...
[18:12] <zombi-> is there a way to list all packages a ppa provides?
[18:12] <netsurf3> anyone know how to manually install flash x64?
[18:12] <lb1> nDuff: sure, but hopefully this shouldn't generally be a problem
[18:12] <netsurf3> the .so file doesnt seem to work when in plugin directory
[18:13] <nDuff> lb1, this is off-topic here, and I'm going to stop discussing the thread, but I advise you to actually try working at a distributor to get an idea of what's involved before making pronouncements on how their business _should_ work in theory.
[18:13] <Slart> lb1: because one company distributes the whole os package.. including the only window managed, desktop manager and file system
[18:13] <Slart> lb1: but this is getting offtopic
[18:13] <James_blond> blakkheim: dpkg just shows that I have 2.6.30-17 installed and *-19 to
[18:13] <Owwl> can someone help me with this: when I turn on the computer it says: Mount of filesystem failed. A maintenance shell will now be started. CONTROL-D will terminate this shell and re-try.
[18:14] <Owwl> then nothing hapens
[18:14] <blakkheim> James_blond: so remove the ones you don't want
[18:14] <lb1> I just expressed an end-user request
[18:14] <lb1> well, actually, it's even more a development problem
[18:14] <ZykoticK9> lb1, but this is a support channel, not a suggestion channel
[18:15] <Owwl> if I try CONTROL-D it just repeats its self
[18:15] <James_blond> blakkheim: I run "apt-get purge linux-image-2.6.30-19" and noting hepens
[18:15] <lb1> ah, where is one supposed to talk about miscellaneous ubuntu-related things?
[18:15] <ZykoticK9> lb1, #ubuntu-offtopic
[18:15] <researcher1> where can I ask questions about video file converters?
[18:16] <Owwl> is this the right place to ask about that problem?
[18:16] <ZykoticK9> Owwl, researcher1 this is the place :)
[18:16] <Owwl> cool
[18:16] <researcher1> ok.thanks
[18:16] <lb1> sorry, didn't know about it: may want to put that in the channel topic
[18:16] <erUSUL> Owwl: i would boot into a livecd to check the linux partition
[18:17] <researcher1> I want to convert my video file into .dat format what should I do?
[18:17] <James_blond> blakkheim: so I just use rm command and remove it from /boot ?
[18:17] <Owwl> as a n00b I have to ask, how would I do that?
[18:17] <rascal999> hay i have jaunty and the wireless light doesn't come on when the laptop boots, any ideas?
[18:17] <erUSUL> researcher1: dat is not reaaly a vido format ... you want to create a VCD ? or SVCD ?
[18:17] <rascal999> i've solved this problem a number of times before but never documented it
[18:17] <antivirtel> is there a fresh google chrome karmic respo ??
[18:17] <blakkheim> James_blond: you can do that, then run grub-update as root if you are using grub2
[18:17] <lb1> (btw, empathy on ubuntu fails to put the topic in multiple lines, truncating it with ellipses instead)
[18:18] <researcher1> I got an order from my office to convert the office video into .DAT for uploading to office  website
[18:18] <Slart> lb1: same thing on irssi.. you can perhaps write /topic here and see if it tells you the whole thing
[18:18] <ZykoticK9> antivirtel, there is a chromium daily build PPA - if you installed Google Chrome it adds its own repo
[18:18] <researcher1> erUSUL: Plz I got an order from my office to convert the office video into .DAT for uploading to office  website
[18:18] <lb1> empathy gives "Unsupported command" and seems to have no obvious way of actually getting the full topic
[18:19] <Dantix> hi all!, I'm trying to do a fresh installation of 9.1 over a just partitioned HD with a windows running. The problem was after boot, choose the language, keyboard and Install. After a while with a blank screen, appears a lot of messages and ends with the num lock and caps lock keyboard lights blinking. Tryed to boot from a knoppix cd and did the same, did not show the error but ends with the lights blinking. What could be wrong?
[18:19] <antivirtel> ZykoticK9 no, i have installed Chrome, but there are no new respos (and updates)
[18:19] <raj-darkmystery> researchl:
[18:19] <zombi-> if a package in a ppa is named the same as a package in a regular source, what happens?
[18:19] <raj-darkmystery> researchl: install mencoder
[18:19] <DopeGhoti> zombi-: whichever has the higher version number is installed.
[18:19] <lb1> (other than enlarging the window, moving it left offscreen, and repeating)
[18:19] <zombi-> ahh
[18:19] <Slart> lb1: well.. I guess it's just another reason to dislike empathy =)
[18:19] <researcher1> ok raj-darkmystery
[18:19] <antivirtel> ZykoticK9 and have you got a shown 3rd party respo ?
[18:20] <antivirtel> (added in soft sources )
[18:20] <ZykoticK9> antivirtel, not much in updates for Google Chrome, but if you look in /etc/apt/sources.list.d I bet you see a google-chrome.list
[18:20] <lb1> well, I lke it, and I think it is the default on ubuntu :)
[18:20] <raj-darkmystery> researchl: and here is hw u can use that "mencoder -o MovieNameHere.avi -of avi -ffourcc DX50 -lavcopts vbitrate=900:vhq -ovc lavc -oac mp3lame -vf pp=lb MovieNameHere.bin"
[18:20] <Slart> lb1: yup, it is.. since 9.10 I think
[18:21] <mrenouf> Can anyone point me to examples of the proper way to deprecate and replace a package with a new package? I've tried Conflicts/Replaces but getting odd results
[18:21] <antivirtel> ZykoticK /etc/apt/sources.list.d or /etc/apt/sources.list ?
[18:21] <erUSUL> researcher1: as i can gather dat is indeed (S)VCD video format in reality only MPEG1
[18:21] <ZykoticK9> antivirtel, /etc/apt/sources.list.d/google-chrome.list is what Google Chrome adds for a repo
[18:21] <Owwl> When I run it from a cd with 9.10 on it I can see all my files by mounting my filesystem, but I can only acsess some of the stuff some pictures  and WAV file say I don't have permishion to veiw them and some entirer folders say the same thing
[18:21] <researcher1> raj-darkmystery actually Im on Ubuntu 10.04 LTS - the Lucid Lynx hence got this mesage while installing
[18:21] <erUSUL> researcher1: i would use something like devede
[18:21] <researcher1> "Package mencoder is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[18:22] <researcher1> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[18:22] <researcher1> is only available from another source
[18:22] <researcher1> E: Package mencoder has no installation candidate
[18:22] <researcher1> "
[18:22] <FloodBot2> researcher1: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[18:22] <researcher1> ok
[18:22] <researcher1> whats devede?
[18:22] <antivirtel> ahh.. really ZykoticK9  :) thanks.. but in dev channel, they told to update it to fix the gmail problem, but there are no new ups?!
[18:23] <raj-darkmystery> researcher1> ohh u need to edit ur sources.list.. n here m nt yet familier with 10.04 as its releasing in April.. i guess
[18:23] <Slart> !info devede | researcher1
[18:23] <antivirtel> ZykoticK9 # deb http://dl.google.com/linux/deb/ stable main :D this is commented, I think
[18:23] <Owwl> and some of the things I can't get at are not backed up
[18:23] <ZykoticK9> antivirtel, there haven't been many updates to Google Chrome -- Chromium on the other hand gets regular updates (it's the development version)
[18:23] <trism> antivirtel: they may have meant to install google-chrome-unstable instead of google-chrome-beta
[18:23] <wombatman> Anyone have a recommendation for a good soundfont. I already have fluid installed but just curious if anyone here has a different preference
[18:23] <researcher1> ok
[18:23] <antivirtel> ZykoticK9 so I del the sharp ?
[18:23] <antivirtel> trism ok :)
[18:23] <TopKatz> hello
[18:24] <ZykoticK9> researcher1, try installing mplayer-nogui to get mencoder
[18:24] <TopKatz> how can I play quicktime streams from apples site?
[18:24] <ZykoticK9> antivirtel, not sure - i wouldn't mess with the Google repo myself, but it's up to you
[18:24] <lun4tic> i have two different sized monitors connected via DVI and they work fine. is it possible to assign one virtual desktop (not xserver) to each of the monitors?
[18:24] <lun4tic> if yes, how
 install swfdec player
[18:25] <ZykoticK9> lun4tic, i don't think so
[18:25] <lun4tic> :(
[18:25] <Owwl> after booting from a live cd, how do I check the linux pertition?
[18:25] <antivirtel> ZykoticK9 and trism: google-chrome-unstable is not found, so may I add a new respo ? or download from the site ?
[18:25] <wombatman> it would be cool
[18:25] <wombatman> heh
[18:25] <TopKatz> looks like its installed already raj-darkmystery
[18:25] <Lazy^> Owwl: fsck ?
[18:25] <trism> antivirtel: it should be there if you have the google repo (but I switched to chromium beta ppa so I can't check)
[18:25] <ZykoticK9> antivirtel, if you want the development version of Google Chrome, you need to install the separate package Chromium
[18:25] <methril_work> why ubuntu has 2 libusb? libusb-1.0 and libusb
[18:26] <TopKatz> Im ttying to play the new ipad vids on apples site
[18:26] <methril_work> libusb was the initial implementation
[18:26] <lun4tic> the problem i have is: i have this twinview running and it works fine but when i run games in fullscreen they think i have some 2700x1280 screensize
[18:26] <dmitrya2e> need help with internet on ubuntu. Notebook, Ubuntu 9.04, about half our back formatted my win7 and installed ubuntu. IP - static. Have typed it, but there aren't any signs of life.  On WIN7 everything worked ok. BTW, on PC with Ubuntu 9.04 with the same IP everything works ok too
[18:26] <methril_work> but 1.0 is the active development
[18:26] <Owwl> I would put that into the termilnal?
[18:26] <lun4tic> so all games appear half on one screen and half on the other
[18:26] <methril_work> it has sense to remove libusb in future releases?
[18:27] <lun4tic> and i do not want to run additional xservers just for gaming
[18:28] <ZykoticK9> lun4tic, easy way is to disable twinview in Nvidia-setting prior to starting the game.  Hard way is you can edit your Xorg and create a NULL output for a certain resolution that will auto-disable one monitor when a particular resolution is requested (nvidia-settings doesn't really seem to like you doing this, and starts complaining when you load it up)

[18:28] <ubuntunewbie> hi
[18:28] <Aftershock51> Is there a way to run windows drivers in linux?
[18:28] <zealiod> is it possible to change my debian kernel to a ubuntu one
[18:28] <ubuntunewbie> anyone know how to install this ISO program ?
[18:28] <ubuntunewbie> acetoneiso2 ?
[18:29] <lun4tic> hm... hate that stuff -.- wanna mouse out of the game and have a browser open on the other monitor :)
[18:29] <ubuntunewbie> the website is down and i dont know where to find the deb
[18:29] <overmind> !wine | Aftershock51
[18:29] <Lajosward> windows drivers?
[18:29] <nibbler> dmitrya2e, i'm not sure if i udnerstand right. you installed ubuntu, have setup the network, but cant connect anywhere? what does ping say, nopaste ifconfig and route -n
[18:29] <Lajosward> lol
[18:29] <lun4tic> guess i'll have to put the games in windowed mode like in windows then.
[18:29] <nibbler> Aftershock51, overmind: wine is *NOT* suitable for drivers!!
[18:29] <Lajosward> he talking about applications?
[18:30] <overmind> Lajosward: Driver is an application
[18:30] <wombatman> yea
[18:30] <abhi_nav> ubuntunewbie, sudo apt-get install <program>
[18:30] <Lajosward> well like  games and such
[18:30] <wombatman> it depends what he wants
[18:30] <Lajosward> ok non background applications
[18:30] <Aftershock51> I mean the hardware needs drivers...the only driver I can find is for Windows
[18:31] <ubuntunewbie> abhi_nav: can't find
[18:31] <wombatman> what type of hardware
[18:31] <abhi_nav> ubuntunewbie, what you typed?
[18:31] <trism> antivirtel: actually there is a deb for it here http://dev.chromium.org/getting-involved/dev-channel
[18:31] <Aftershock51> Sound card
[18:31] <wombatman> if ndiswrapper can assist with modems
[18:31] <Lajosward> sould be automatic
[18:31] <wombatman> what sound card
[18:31] <Lajosward> should
[18:31] <Lajosward> mine was
[18:31] <ubuntunewbie> abhi_nav: sudo apt-get install acetoneiso2
[18:31] <wombatman> most are
[18:31] <Aftershock51> Sound Blaster Live!
[18:31] <dmitrya2e> nibbler, ping is ok, 0.02-0.03 sec. btw i receive packets, but cant connect anywhere
[18:31] <StarTec> my display is stuck at 600x800  how do i fix  that
[18:31] <Aftershock51> It's outdated :3
[18:32] <wombatman> but some people have issues on occasion
[18:32] <antivirtel> trism: tx
[18:32] <wombatman> outdated but works
[18:32] <StarTec> think i gota a matrox video card
[18:32] <ZykoticK9> ubuntunewbie, acetoneiso2 isn't in the ubuntu repository and thus you can't use the "apt-get install acetoneiso2" command
[18:32] <wombatman> ?
[18:32] <ubuntunewbie> ZykoticK9 : ? so where can I find it ?
[18:32] <nibbler> dmitrya2e, anywhere like "the internet"? try "dig www.google.com" "traceroute 8.8.8.8" and nopaste it
[18:32] <ubuntunewbie> ZykoticK9 : the website is down
[18:33] <abhi_nav> ubuntunewbie, try apt-get install acetoneiso or go to their website http://www.acetoneteam.org/ and download for ubuntu
[18:33] <ZykoticK9> ubuntunewbie, then wait for the website to come back up again???
[18:33] <abhi_nav> ubuntunewbie, and ZykoticK9 it is in the repo
[18:33] <Lajosward> what is the wine channel here?
[18:33] <ZykoticK9> Lajosward, #winehq
[18:33] <ZykoticK9> abhi_nav, don't think so man
[18:33] <ubuntunewbie> ZykoticK9 , abhi_nav , ah forgot to mention I am using Hardy 8.04
[18:34] <ceeney> why don't you try ubuntu 9.10?
[18:34] <raj-darkmystery> dnt u think ubuntunewbie is mentioning it so early :D
[18:34] <ubuntunewbie> ceeny , currently waiting for lucid upgrade
[18:34] <ZykoticK9> ubuntunewbie, the site getdeb.net is working for me?
[18:34] <abhi_nav> ubuntunewbie,  and ZykoticK9 apt-get install acetoneiso they told on their web site for debian based os to do this
[18:34] <ubuntunewbie> ZykoticK9 : it doesn't work on hardy
[18:35] <abhi_nav> ubuntunewbie, and that website is working fine here. have you tried it?
[18:35] <abhi_nav> ubuntunewbie, its this site: http://www.acetoneteam.org/
[18:35] <wombatman> Anyone have any soundfont preferences that aren't fluid?
[18:35] <ZykoticK9> abhi_nav, you're right!
[18:35] <researcher1> I am on  Ubuntu 10.04 LTS - the Lucid Lynx but want to create an Apt-on CD using which I can  install programs on my office PC having Ubuntu 9.10. Is it possible? What should I do?
[18:36] <abhi_nav> ZykoticK9, ohhh hmmm
[18:36] <ubuntunewbie> abhi_nav: i access the old website and it's down the new one works but doesn't have hardy in it
[18:36] <raj-darkmystery> here is the dwnload link for acetoneiso http://www.getdeb.net/updates/Ubuntu/9.10/?q=acetoneiso
[18:36] <raj-darkmystery> hehe bt its for 9.10
[18:36] <wombatman> yea
[18:36] <wombatman> getdeb doesn't support hardy anymore
[18:36] <abhi_nav> ubuntunewbie, what the hardy to do here? just donwload the .deb file and install it? its simple?
[18:36] <wombatman> but they may have the old getdeb archive up
[18:36] <raj-darkmystery> n abhi_nav its the same link u was providing to newbie
[18:37] <ubuntunewbie> abhi_nav: the problem is , I can't get the deb file
[18:37] <wombatman> We are working to get our services online soon. - The GetDeb Team
[18:37] <wombatman> nope
[18:37] <abhi_nav> ubuntunewbie, then get source file and compile it and install it. its too easy. really ;)
[18:38] <wombatman> when it does come up
[18:38] <wombatman> it'll be old.getdeb.net
[18:38] <ZykoticK9> ubuntunewbie, you are experiencing the problem with LTS releases, by the time they reach end-of-life a LOT has changed.
[18:38] <abhi_nav> ubuntunewbie, source file is located in home page
[18:38] <wombatman> yea
[18:38] <ubuntunewbie> ZykoticK9: yeh waiting for lucid release for an upgrade
[18:38] <raj-darkmystery> ubuntunewbie: apt-get install AcetoneISO-6.7.deb
[18:38] <ceeney> the zen status compilation is not so easy
[18:39] <wombatman> and compiling is not as scary as actually knowing how to program
[18:39] <ZykoticK9> ubuntunewbie, wise decision
[18:39] <ubuntunewbie> abhi_nav: I dont know how to compile :(
[18:39] <wombatman> most the time you type some things in a terminal
[18:39] <wombatman> and pray
[18:39] <raj-darkmystery> n these r the dependencies for the same apt-get install kommander p7zip
[18:39] <abhi_nav> !compile | ubuntunewbie
[18:39] <wombatman> and if that doesn't work then google it
[18:39] <abhi_nav> ubuntunewbie, you just have to type two or three commands i.e. ./configure then make and then make install thats it
[18:40] <ubuntunewbie> abhi_nav: reading now
[18:40] <ceeney> hahaha, try to deal with gnome with this skill
[18:40] <abhi_nav> ubuntunewbie, hmmm
[18:40] <ceeney> i meant, tring to upgrade gnome by hand
[18:41] <wombatman> it's a bit different
[18:41] <wombatman> but still education is always good
[18:41] <ubuntunewbie> abhi_nav: sorry dont understand :S
[18:41] <ceeney> salesmen don't think so
[18:41] <ubuntunewbie> :(
[18:41] <ceeney> they will say: 'i have no time...'
[18:42] <abhi_nav> ubuntunewbie, you just first have that source downloaed then anyone here wll tell you how to install it
[18:42] <raj-darkmystery> ubuntunewbie> apt-get install kommander p7zip
[18:42] <ubuntunewbie> abhi_nav: downloaded it acetoneiso_2.2.1.tar.gz
[18:42] <raj-darkmystery> apt-get install AcetoneISO-6.7.deb
[18:42] <newbee2> splitted screen what can i do. (via cn700 driver)
[18:43] <ZykoticK9> ubuntunewbie, even if you download the source code, i'm guessing it will fail due to unmet dependencies (just a guess mind you)
[18:43] <abhi_nav> ubuntunewbie, right click on it and extract here
[18:43] <abhi_nav> ohh yes
[18:43] <raj-darkmystery> abhi_nav
[18:43] <Beket> Hi people. I'm running ubuntu as vbox guest and the graphics get messed up, ending up with a resolution 800x600.  Is there a known issue / possible workarounds ?
[18:43] <abhi_nav> raj-darkmystery,
[18:43] <raj-darkmystery> he can install it with apt-get
[18:43] <NDPMacBook> Hrm
[18:43] <coz_> ubuntunewbie,  I am guessing...as already mentione that what you want is probably in the repository
[18:43] <ubuntunewbie> raj-darkmystery :? huh ?
[18:43] <raj-darkmystery> apt-get install AcetoneISO-6.7.deb
[18:44] <raj-darkmystery> but a dependency is there
[18:44] <ZykoticK9> Beket, try installing the Guest Additions in the VM
[18:44] <raj-darkmystery> n dependency apt-get install kommander p7zip
[18:44] <ubuntunewbie> raj-darkmystery : Couldn't find package AcetoneISO-6.7.deb
[18:44] <Beket> ZykoticK9, yeh I did.   It didn't make any difference
[18:44] <ubuntunewbie> doesn't work
[18:44] <raj-darkmystery> firstly overcome to dependencies by apt-get install kommander p7zip
[18:45] <ZykoticK9> raj-darkmystery, "apt-get install AcetoneISO-6.7.deb" isn't the way to install a DEB file you've downloaded
[18:45] <abhi_nav> ohh Please
[18:45] <abhi_nav> what is this going on
[18:45] <bharath144> Has anyone here upgraded to 10.04 beta?
[18:45] <abhi_nav> let him follow some ONE way
[18:45] <abhi_nav> dont confuse him
[18:45] <raj-darkmystery> ya i know but cant help it if they made this like this.. ok guys le'me search if i still have that webpage stores
[18:45] <ZykoticK9> Beket, what version of Ubuntu is your guest?

[18:46] <abhi_nav> but he already HAVE doanloaded that file
[18:46] <bharath144> I have some very serious issues with Xorg
[18:46] <Beket> ZykoticK9, ubuntu 10 beta. kernel version that comes with it 2.6.32-16
[18:46] <abhi_nav> he now just need to compile and install it
[18:46] <raj-darkmystery> then whts the matter? just make it
[18:46] <abhi_nav> its too easy isnt it?
[18:46] <coz_> ubuntunewbie,  if you use that link go to the home page first and have getdeb stuf installed
[18:46] <ZykoticK9> Beket, ok - then what is your Host OS then.
[18:46] <raj-darkmystery> hehe tell him to cat through README
[18:46] <wombatman> he's scared
[18:46] <abhi_nav> that is what I am telling him but then all of you came in between
[18:46] <wombatman> that happens
[18:46] <wombatman> he needs to man up
[18:46] <abhi_nav> ok
[18:46] <ubuntunewbie> doesn't wocoz_ : Invalid url: 'apt:acetoneiso?refresh=yes' given, exiting
[18:46] <raj-darkmystery> ohh sorry sorry :(
[18:46] <Beket> ZykoticK9, opensolaris and vbox is 3.1.4 FWIW.
[18:46] <abhi_nav> ubuntunewbie, you wait
[18:46] <dmitrya2e> nibbler, http://pastie.org/893854
[18:46] <coz_> ubuntunewbie,  ok go to getdeb.net
[18:47] <Beket> ubuntu 9.x + guest additions = works fine
[18:47] <antivirtel> trism thanks, problem sloved
[18:47] <abhi_nav> ubuntunewbie, have you done what I said? right click on it and click extract here
[18:47] <ZykoticK9> Beket, vbox OSE or PUEL version?  i'm not too familiar with opensolaris
[18:47] <dmitrya2e> i don't have installed traceroute
[18:47] <coz_> ubuntunewbie,  start from there  then look for the acetoneiso application
[18:47] <Beket> ZykoticK9, sorry, vbox OSE, yeh
[18:47] <wombatman> no coz
[18:47] <wombatman> he's on 8.04
[18:47] <ubuntunewbie> abhi_nav: what should I extract ?
[18:47] <abhi_nav> ohhh
[18:47] <bharath144> my xorg.conf in /etc/X11/
[18:47] <nibbler> dmitrya2e, that looks good, how about the tracepath 8.8.8.8?
[18:47] <bharath144> is empty
[18:47] <ZykoticK9> Beket, inside the VM just use "sudo apt-get install virtualbox-ose-guest-x11" and that should fix you up :)
[18:47] <abhi_nav> ubuntunewbie, you told me that you downloaded some .tar file
[18:47] <bharath144> and yet my X is working perfectly fine
[18:48] <bharath144> I needed to configure my Mouse
[18:48] <bharath144> so I thought of editing the file
[18:48] <ubuntunewbie> abhi_nav :  ? It wouldn't meet the dependence on my hardy
[18:48] <bharath144> but I couldn't find it
[18:48] <wombatman> the source?
[18:48] <abhi_nav> raj-darkmystery, its ok be here. If that installing from source fails then you continue wth him
[18:48] <bharath144> I then ran X -configure
[18:48] <wombatman> get the dependencies
[18:48] <raj-darkmystery> hehe ok
[18:48] <bharath144> that generated a xorg.conf.new
[18:48] <abhi_nav> ubuntunewbie, have you tried?
[18:48] <raj-darkmystery> m available
[18:48] <bharath144> and that crashed my x
[18:48] <abhi_nav> hmm thanks raj-darkmystery
[18:49] <bharath144> the strange thing is that if I deleted that xorg.conf everything worked fine
[18:49] <bharath144> where is my X picking up the xorg.conf from?
[18:49] <ubuntunewbie> abhi_nav : nope
[18:49] <jovis> hi guys

[18:50] <nibbler> dmitrya2e, what about ping and tracepath (not route, path!)
[18:50] <aconbere> It's not readily apparent from kernel logs :-/
[18:50] <adante> for instance if i have files a.bin b.bin .. z.bin , and i want to remove all bins minus x.bin, can i specify a *.bin{-x.bin}
[18:50] <raj-darkmystery> dmitrya2e> its tracepath
[18:50] <jovis> i had advmame running on ubintu at one point then i had to reinstall my root pattition, now it locks my system up if i try to run a game (even a simple one like poooyan)
[18:50] <Roasted_> On my home Ubuntu desktop, when I view images as thumbnails in nautilus, I see the image in the icon itself. On my work laptop, using the same theme and whatnot, I don't. Why?
[18:51] <abhi_nav> raj-darkmystery,  but my first question remaings unanswered
[18:51] <jovis> i rebuilt it twice
[18:51] <ubuntunewbie> coz_ : the main problem is I can't find anyway from the internet for the .deb file.The name should be  acetoneiso2_2.0.1_x86.deb for old version which it work on hardy

[18:52] <raj-darkmystery> ya abhi_nav but that wsnt available :'(
[18:52] <ubuntunewbie> coz_ ; thanks
[18:52] <nibbler> dmitrya2e, its fine, if ping works, trace is not needed
[18:52] <xenaxon> Now, I can finally get HELP!
[18:52] <harsh__> hey on my laptop ubuntu 9.10 is not supported
[18:52] <daniskami> xenaxon: how come it took you so long?
[18:52] <ZykoticK9> Beket, glad to help :)  hope you enjoy buttons on the left side (can be changed BTW, see !controls in #ubuntu+1)
[18:52] <xenaxon> I didn't know how to install anything on linux
[18:52] <nibbler> dmitrya2e, so what about "telnet www.google.com 80" and then typing "get /" <enter>?
[18:52] <coz_> ubuntunewbie,  do you already have the source extracted?
[18:53] <raj-darkmystery> hey abhi_nav can u teach me short-keys for IRC ;)
[18:53] <xenaxon> Guys, how can I install Eclipse. I need eclipse to code
[18:53] <raj-darkmystery> i can use g-talk bt nt IRC hehe :D
[18:53] <DopeGhoti> xenaxon: applications → Software Store; search for Eclipse
[18:53] <ubuntunewbie> coz_ : yes but the source is the lastest version , mostly it wouldn't work
[18:53] <abhi_nav> raj-darkmystery, which shortkeys? use tab for completing nicks
[18:53] <jovis> can you install it with apt-get xenaxon?
[18:53] <coz_> ubuntunewbie,  inside should be a README  file...open that
[18:53] <xenaxon> let me check
[18:54] <raj-darkmystery> is that only? :o i thought there r other shortcut keys also :-/
[18:54] <gaveen> xenaxon, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EclipseIDE
[18:54] <condex1> Hello. Is there a log file for "desktop sharing" connections? I need it because i think somebody was controlling my PC.
[18:54] <xenaxon> It's still opening through konqueror
[18:54] <xenaxon> need to set firefox as default browser
[18:54] <coz_> ubuntunewbie,  the problem I see with this source code is that it requires  kdelibs and if you are on gnome then you will be adding quite a bit of extra data onto the system
[18:54] <u6> why when i created a new user do i get ^[[A when i press the up arrow? i want to go to the previous command. I also get something simialr when i hit left,right, and down key. How do i stop that?
[18:55] <jovis> i would try that xenaxon
[18:55] <u6> in terminal
[18:55] <daniskami> xenaxon: also, if you are a programmer, you might be comfortable with the terminal -- `sudo aptitude eclipse' is much faster then
[18:55] <coz_> ubuntunewbie,  sorry read that wrong
[18:55] <coz_> ubuntunewbie,  is the readme file opened?
[18:55] <MozillaGuerrilla> I'm looking for a script to use to install Thunderbird lickity split but all the links I've found so far are dead or out of date, any help from the audience ?

[18:56] <raj-darkmystery> catch up wid u 2mrw buhbiee...!!
[18:56] <daniskami> xenaxon: I don't think there is one by default, you will find a terminal in the application menu
[18:56] <coz_> ubuntunewbie,  you wont need konqueror or that line of dependencies listed with konqueror listed
[18:57] <troels> Can't install Teamspeak 3, Running ubuntu 9.1. When I try to install I get an error "Coudl not open file "/home/troels/Hentede fil…inux_x86-3.0.0-beta17.run".. I can then choose between UTF-8 and ISO 8859-15 but nothing works.

[19:02] <xenaxon> ?
[19:02] <Beket> xenaxon, 'sudo <cmd>'
[19:02] <coz_> xenaxon,   sudo helps
[19:02] <nibbler> dmitrya2e, its fine, if ping works, trace is not needed
[19:02] <nibbler> dmitrya2e, so what about "telnet www.google.com 80" and then typing "get /" <enter>?
[19:02] <Beket> or just su - and type the command
[19:03] <ideea> nibbler, he need to switch internet cable between PC and notebook :)
[19:03] <ubuntunewbie> coz_ : yes I installed
[19:03] <DopeGhoti> MozillaGuerrilla: I'm not sure what you're asking; that command should get Tbird installed for you; was there more you needed?
[19:03] <nibbler> ideea, ah oki ;-)
[19:03] <coz_> ubuntunewbie,  ok follow the instructions here  http://www.getdeb.net/updates/Ubuntu/all#how_to_install
[19:03] <u6> why when i created a new user do i get ^[[A when i press the up arrow? i want to go to the previous command. I also get something simialr when i hit left,right, and down key. How do i stop that? In termial of corse
[19:04] <ubuntunewbie> coz_ : deb http://archive.getdeb.net/ubuntu karmic-getdeb apps but mine is hardy
[19:04] <coz_> oooo
[19:04] <coz_> ubuntunewbie,  oooo
[19:04] <coz_> ubuntunewbie,  that is going to pose a problem
[19:04] <coz_> ubuntunewbie,  you might as well uninstall that package
[19:05] <coz_> ubuntunewbie,  open a terminal   cd to where that package is    sudo apt-get autoremove  nameofgetdebpacakge
[19:05] <coz_> ubuntunewbie,  to get the name of that pacakge in the terminal type the first 3 letters and hit tab to autocomplete
[19:05] <MozillaGuerrilla> Dope Ghoti, well I have a friend that needs it done & I don't want get there and to run into all of this...http://www.debianadmin.com/how-to-install-thunderbird-in-ubuntu.html
[19:06] <ZykoticK9> coz_, autoremove?  don't you just mean remove
[19:06] <NfNitLoop> I'm trying to get desktop effects working in KDE on Ubuntu 9.10.   I've got nvidia drivers set up doing dual-screen display quite nicely.  But Kde -> settings -> Desktop Effects is telling me that I need "Required X extenions XComposite and XDamage".   Can't seem to find out how to enable those.
[19:06] <xenaxon> eclipse is installing, where will I find it after it's done installing?
[19:06] <coz_> ZykoticK9,  generally i use autoremove to get rid of unused dependencies
[19:06] <DopeGhoti> MozillaGuerrilla: that's rather out-of-date info.  All you should need to do is run that one command, «apt-get install thunderbird», and it should be installed.
[19:06] <xenaxon> where are applications kept in linux?
[19:07] <xenaxon> in what folder
[19:07] <ubuntunewbie> coz_ : BRB
[19:07] <coz_> xenaxon,  kept as in stored for later use or where are they installed?
[19:07] <xenaxon> when they are installed
[19:07] <rabbit1> how to check the version of drupal i am using?
[19:07] <xenaxon> actually both
[19:07] <arand> xenaxon: dpkg -L packagename will tell you all the files of a certain package
[19:07] <coz_> xenaxon,  well  probably in /usr
[19:08] <ideea> nibbler, he reinstalled ubuntu, and on 9.10 its ok :)
[19:08] <daniskami> xenaxon: applications come in packages which place files all over the filesystem. There isn't one specific directory. Use dpkg as mentioned above
[19:08] <lodder> How can I know what package contains the following file extract-messages.sh
[19:08] <daniskami> lodder: dpkg -S
[19:08] <xenaxon> daniskami: ok
[19:08] <coz_> ubuntunewbie,  if you are on gnome there is gmountiso
[19:08] <lodder> daniskami: and when it's not installed?
[19:08] <xenaxon> how do I mount my windows NTFS drivers
[19:09] <xenaxon> partitions*
[19:09] <Slart> !ntfs | xenaxon
[19:09] <nibbler> ideea, well then :)
[19:10] <OerHeks> !raid | OerHeks
[19:11] <daniskami> lodder: apt-file (you might need to install that)
[19:11] <abhi_nav> ubuntunewbie, you solved? whats the status?
[19:12] <daniskami> lodder: apt-file search extract-messages.sh
[19:12] <Roasted_> On my home Ubuntu desktop, when I view images as thumbnails in nautilus, I see the image in the icon itself. On my work laptop, using the same theme and whatnot, I don't. Why?
[19:12] <daniskami> lodder: pkg-kde-tools: /usr/bin/extract-messages.sh

[19:30] <nates> hi all, i want to reformat my ubuntu box and was wondering what would be the best way. last time i did that i got an tgz archive that contained many files that could not be restored. any clue how to solve that in a clean way?
[19:30] <jrib> rabbit1: yeah, the drupal packages aren't really kept up to date in the official repositories.  Personally, I install from the tar.gz, but this is a hassle to update every couple of weeks myself.  There may be some ppa with more recent versions kept in it, but then you are trusting the ppa author
[19:30] <rolf_> !backports
[19:31] <Slart> SwimmingRat: I doubt flash will crash your system.. have you checked the memory using the boot menu option or a live cd?
[19:31] <sam_sam> previously i could lock my system but after an upgrade i can not. how can i get that option back ?
[19:31] <sam_sam> lock my screen *
[19:31] <rabbit1> jrib: that din't solve my problem
[19:31] <rabbit1> ppa ?
[19:31] <jrib> rabbit1: what is the problem?
[19:32] <sam_sam> ubottu you are a nice bot :D
[19:32] <kubi_ubi_bubi> is there any difference between the two commands :'halt' and 'shutdown'? Which is safer?
[19:32] <SwimmingRat> Start, how long must I spend on this memory check. I did it,reported back and then got told I had to check it for 48 hours or it didnt cout. so I figured I was being dissed.
[19:32] <rabbit1> jrib: i am in drupal.org/project
[19:32] <Slart> SwimmingRat: overheating is another common cause of crashes
[19:33] <jrib> rabbit1: yes, but what is your question?
[19:33] <SwimmingRat> start no overheating. the case is open, the air is hardly warm.
[19:33] <Slart> SwimmingRat: let it run over night..  it just restarts when it finishes.. there is a counter somewhere
[19:33] <sam_sam> previously i could lock my screen but after an upgrade i can not. how can i get that option back ?
[19:33] <SwimmingRat> oh didnt know that. sure will.
[19:33] <Slart> SwimmingRat: but it takes quite some time
[19:33] <nates> wow my question was a mess. again: i try to reformat my linux box and i'm looking for a tool to _backup_ my data. any backup software that does that in an easy fashion?
[19:33] <rabbit1> jrib: i need drupal project, installation profiles, modules themes theme engines and translation, i need to install all
[19:33] <SwimmingRat> start like is 6 hours enough?
[19:33] <foreverubun2> SwimmingRat: Usually 2 to 3 % is good enough from my use
[19:34] <jrib> rabbit1: if you don't want to use the repositories, then visit drupal.org's download section (#drupal-support for drupal support)
[19:34] <blakkheim> nates: dd, cp

It installed ok (though took a very long time), and booted ok, though again slow. But I've just tried starting it now, and instead it stops on console with a message from fsck saying /dev/sda1 is clean. And it's been stuck there for the past hour, no errors, nothing. An

[19:51] <iustinian> evening
[19:51] <maxo> is ubuntu not suited to old computers?
[19:52] <blakkheim> maxo: ubuntu minimal iso with a lightweight window manager would be ok
[19:52] <blakkheim> maxo: but the default ubuntu is extremely bloated
[19:52] <iceroot> maxo: what is old?
[19:52] <nightsjammies> does anyone know anything about persoanl wiki's?
[19:52] <iceroot> nightsjammies: #mediawiki
[19:52] <maxo> iceroot: 1999 pc, 192MB ram, 500mhz celeron, 13GB hard disk
[19:52] <iceroot> maxo: i am running 9.10 fine on 630mhz, 1gb ram, 4gb ssd
[19:52] <maxo> blakkheim: I guess my worry though is that it seems to be hanging before it even properly hits init
[19:53] <nightsjammies> huh?
[19:53] <iceroot> maxo: but the ram is not enough oon your machine
[19:53] <Mahara> nightsjammies: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Personal_wiki
[19:53] <maxo> and I'm getting no error messages, nothing
[19:53] <blakkheim> maxo: you might want to try a lighter distro then
[19:53] <iceroot> maxo: use the alternate cd installer and choose xubuntu
[19:53] <nightsjammies> Yeah, I already checked the wikipedia, but does anyone know of any good ones?
[19:53] <ubuntunewbie> coz_ : hi , sorry gtg now , thanks for all the help :-)
[19:53] <blakkheim> iceroot: i don't think xubuntu will run smooth on that computer, it's almost as bloated as the gnome version
[19:53] <iceroot> nightsjammies: i said mediawiki, not wikipedia
[19:53] <coz_> ubuntunewbie,  sorry guy I was distracted on another channel
[19:53] <daniskami> nightsjammies: I use Zim and like it a lot
[19:54] <nightsjammies> iceroot: ah, okay.
[19:54] <ubuntunewbie> coz_ : is ok , i was away just now too :)
[19:54] <ubuntunewbie> coz_ : going to sleep it's late here
[19:54] <coz_> ubuntunewbie,  ah ok
[19:54] <ThunderOver> sera a tutti
[19:54] <iceroot> maxo: but buy some ram, if you want to use firefox or openoffice, 192mb ram is much to low
[19:54] <ThunderOver> ce qualche italiano che puo aiutarmi ?¿?
[19:54] <maxo> blakkheim, iceroot: I'm setting it up for relatives who have never used a computer before, so it has to be straightforward to use
[19:55] <nightsjammies> iceroot: ah, I see, thanks.
[19:55] <maxo> I used to have windows xp on it, and it ran ok, but over time it just got slower and slower
[19:55] <juan__> how do I find out if my graphics card supports s better visual effects setting
[19:55] <Mahara> ThunderOver: English if possible
[19:55] <ubuntunewbie> coz_ : through my search I got the file at http://www.mediafire.com/?m5yrgdjk30z but it's an rc version acetoneiso_2.0.3~rc1-1~getdeb1_i386.deb.The only place for me to find after an hard search
[19:55] <coz_> ubuntunewbie,  but you can also install gmountiso
[19:55] <nightsjammies> Now, a personal wiki is something that only I can edit, right? Can I keep the content online, or is it only on my HD?
[19:55] <erUSUL> juan__: lspci | grep -i vga
[19:55] <coz_> ubuntunewbie,  I use that myself
[19:55] <ubuntunewbie> coz_ : gmountiso ?
[19:56] <coz_> ubuntunewbie,  not as pretty  but just as effective
[19:56] <nightsjammies> or is there a channel?
[19:56] <liam_> hi all
[19:56] <coz_> ubuntunewbie,  yep  sudo apt-get install gmountiso
[19:56] <rbellamy> I'm running selinux on my local workstation because the production environment I'm pushing to runs it.... and I'm getting many errors regarding setroubleshoot. There are numerous bugs on Debian and Launchpad, but no resolutions, so I'm looking for help. Does anyone know where I could find an example policy for Ubuntu that properly addresses the use of setroubleshoot?
[19:57] <ubuntunewbie> coz_ : uhm... so it works the same as acetoneiso ? thanks will install it tomorrow
[19:57] <ubuntunewbie> coz_ : so with the gmountiso i can browse file inside iso ?
[19:57] <coz_> ubuntunewbie,  well if what you want is mounting of iso images  that should work
[19:57] <daniskami> nightsjammies: you can have it both online and on your own computer, depending on which you choose
[19:57] <c001os> hi
[19:57] <coz_> ubuntunewbie,  yeah  I believe so
[19:57] <coz_> ubuntunewbie,  i would google gmountiso and see what info you can get
[19:58] <liam_> this might not be the right place but i'm creating a site to help users with ubuntu please visit: webportal.louwizz.com
[19:58] <coz_> ubuntunewbie,  I have it installed here on karmic   although I dont use it regularly
[19:58] <nightsjammies> daniskami: okay, so do all personal wiki's do that?
[19:58] <ActionParsnip> Ubuntunewb ie: the mount syntax isn't hard for iso files and will get you comfortable using the terminal
[19:58] <Zeelot2k> hey, trying to install ttf2pt1 on 9.10 but it seems the package is no longer in the repo... any reason why?
[19:58] <ActionParsnip> Zeelot2k: i'd ask in #motd
[19:58] <ActionParsnip> #motu sorry
[19:59] <Zeelot2k> ActionParsnip: empty channel...
[19:59] <ubuntunewbie> coz_ : but it's different , mount which means I need a location of mount point
[19:59] <Zeelot2k> or almos t empty
[19:59] <ampex> is there any reason to use xinerama vs not use it? I seem to be able to get dual monitors working in either configuration
[19:59] <ActionParsnip> !motu
[19:59] <ubuntunewbie> coz_ : I just want to open iso like a .tar
[19:59] <daniskami> nightsjammies: no, they are all different
[19:59] <ubuntunewbie> coz_ : I wanted to copy and read what's in the iso
[19:59] <coz_> ubuntunewbie,  yeah you just create a folder on the desktop ..or somewhere  then have it mount the iso there
[19:59] <ActionParsnip> Ubuntunewbie: make an empy folder in /media and mount to it
[20:00] <coz_> ubuntunewbie,  that should work with gmountiso
[20:00] <nightsjammies> okay. Well, I guess I'll just install a few and see what I like then. Thanks for your help all :)
[20:00] <c001os> i upgraded my karmic to lucid, and my etc/apt/source.list is empty... what hapens?
[20:00] <Trek> !lucid | c001os
[20:00] <ActionParsnip> Ampex: if you can get what you want then that's fine. Neither is better
[20:00] <c001os> ok thx
[20:00] <Admin_> please anyone can tell me how to fix this: The panel encountered a problem while loading
[20:00] <Admin_> “OAFIID:GNOME_FastUserSwitchApplet”
[20:00] <Admin_> Do you want to delete the applet from your configuration?
[20:01] <Trek> !enter | Admin_
[20:01] <ubuntunewbie> ActionParsnip : I just want to browse file inside iso , let say if I wanted to mount a 2GB iso , i need to  have 2gb free space for it right ?
[20:01] <ActionParsnip> Ubuntunewbie: once you get it mounted it'll be like daemontools under windows but linux doesn't use silly drive letters and the data will be accessible vioa the mount point
[20:02] <ubuntunewbie> ActionParsnip: I never use daemontools before
[20:02] <ActionParsnip> Ubuntunewbie: it will be readable. You will only need extra space if you copy files from the iso
[20:02] <ActionParsnip> Ubuntunewbie: I see, well you get the idea
[20:03] <ubuntunewbie> ActionParsnip: i browse iso using winrar last time at window xp before switching to ubuntui
[20:03] <nightsjammies> how do I see if I'm using PHP 5.3.1?
[20:03] <ActionParsnip> Ubuntunewbie: try: sudo mkdir /media/iso; sudo mount -o loop /path/to/yourfile.iso /media/iso
[20:04] <Trek> nightsjammies: check the version on the package...?
[20:04] <nightsjammies> ...facepalm..
[20:04] <Roasted_> wut
[20:04] <ActionParsnip> Ubuntunewbie: you will need to change the path bit to point to your actual file, that's all you need to change. The data will be accessible at /media/iso
[20:04] <panfist> i'm having problems printing in landscape...gnumeric, gedit, and firefox all seem to share the same gnome print dialog, and the orientation drop-down on the page setup tab of the print dialog is disabled on all of them
[20:05] <ubuntunewbie> ActionParsnip: do I need hard disk space to mount ?
[20:05] <rabbit1> jrib: drupal6 folder saved in /home/username/public_html , is it correct? or should i save somewhere else, coz i am getting not found on the server
[20:06] <ActionParsnip> Ubuntunewbie: no mounting costs zero space
[20:06] <rabbit1> jrib: 404 not found
[20:06] <guptaxpn> what's the difference between JeOS and the regular server install?
[20:06] <Maletor> When Ubuntu 10.4 BETA2 comes out, how will I upgrade form BETA1?
[20:06] <ActionParsnip> Ubuntunewbie: the only space is the iso, the mount just tells the system to access the file in a special way
[20:07] <ubuntunewbie> ActionParsnip: oh..
[20:07] <jrib> rabbit1: I don't think you can't run php by default in public_html
[20:07] <ActionParsnip> Guptaxpn: jeos isn't supported here is one difference
[20:07] <xatcon> my hp deskjet 1600 d not print the command
[20:07] <guptaxpn> pardon ActionParsnip ?
[20:07] <ubuntunewbie> ActionParsnip: how to unmount after that ? sudo mkdir /media/iso; sudo mount -o loop /path/to/yourfile.iso /media/iso
[20:07] <ActionParsnip> Maletor: it will seamlessly ugrade
[20:07] <xatcon> im using ubuntu 9.04
[20:07] <guptaxpn> i mean, what's the deal with the virtual machine option in 10.04?
[20:07] <Maletor> ActionParsnip: so i just do update & upgrade?
[20:08] <xatcon> any just help me out
[20:08] <mneptok> Maletor: 10.04 questions really belong in #ubuntu+1
[20:08] <rabbit1> jrib: i can create one more folder, and add that in config file of apache2 ?
[20:08] <ActionParsnip> Maletor: if you have a prerelease it will upgrade through to stable
[20:08] <liam_> guptaxpn, virtual option?
[20:08] <guptaxpn> yeah
[20:08] <xatcon> there may be driver problen i think
[20:08] <guptaxpn> if you hit f4 on the install
[20:09] <guptaxpn> it says virtual server or something
[20:09] <ActionParsnip> Guptaxpn: sorry. Head mixed up
[20:09] <guptaxpn> and what's the dela with the enterprise cloud thing?
[20:09] <C-S-B-N900> its for having ubunutu as a minimal virtual machine.
[20:09] <C-S-B-N900> i ithink for sas.

[20:10] <ubuntunewbie> ActionParsnip: This disc contains a "UDF" file system and requires an operating system that supports the ISO-13346 "UDF" file system specification.

[20:14] <andares> Hey, whenever I try to apt-get eclipse-sdk, it gives me version 3.2, which is woefully old (several years at least).

[20:14] <ubuntunewbie> coz_ : I hope so , just that it's weird where it doesnt follow traditional iso standard
[20:15] <fnord> andares: I don't know eclipse, but if you get old versions out of the repos, consider compiling the source from the project's website.
[20:15] <andares> ActionParsnip: ?
[20:15] <andares> fnord: I'm on a netbook, it would take days.
[20:15] <Mohamed> I'm installing Ubuntu 10.04 beta, and it's asking me for the username and password before even the installation begins! How should I know it?

[20:15] <ardchoille> !lucid | Mohamed
[20:15] <jrib> rabbit1: sure
[20:15] <fnord> andares: maybe search the web for more up-to-date bins?

[20:16] <jrib> rabbit1: help.ubuntu.com/community has a drupal page explaining this too I believe
[20:16] <maxo> is it possible to boot off a live ubuntu cd and then from that run dpkg/apt on an already-installed ubuntu system?
[20:16] <daniskami> Mohamed: It asks you to choose a username and password I guess.
[20:16] <andares> hm, okay. Still seems weird nobody would update it.
[20:16] <ubuntunewbie> coz_ : :) anyway thanks for the help again  :)
[20:16] <ubuntunewbie> bye

[20:16] <coz_> ubuntunewbie,  no problem

[20:16] <fnord> I have the same with postfix andares. ;)
[20:16] <Mohamed> daniskami, I tried to guess some and it didn't work
[20:16] <samc> maxo: you could mount up the installed system, then chroot into it and run apt
[20:16] <fnord> I used the apt-get version on my server and now I hjave a very old one. Don't want to update because it took me hours just to get this one working.
[20:16] <ActionParsnip> Maxo: look into chroot ;)
[20:17] <daniskami> Mohamed: go to #ubuntu+1 and post the exact message you're getting there

[20:24] <mneptok> nikolam_: this channel has a policy of discouraging nick changes for /away status. once again, please abide by channel policy.
[20:24] <nikolam_> Trek, stop harrasing me
[20:24] <nikolam_> mneptok, go away, with messages, will you
[20:24] <nikolam_> hell
[20:25] <Falconldo> any help for a dual boot XP/Unbunto problem?
[20:25] <daniskami> nikolam_: Come on, why are you even here in this channel?
[20:25] <liam_> fnord, can you boot into the os
[20:25] <fnord> It boots untill the splash screen with the ubu logo.
[20:25] <panfist> actionparsnip an hp laserjet p1006 and a lexmark c534. also a canon imagerunner 5055 bt i can't troubleshoot that one right now
[20:25] <ActionParsnip> Falcoldo: its ubuntu not ubunto
[20:25] <fnord> Then screen turns black, when I press Esc I get: "Giave up waiting for boot device."
[20:25] <fnord> And it hands me a terminal.
[20:25] <nikolam_> daniskami, I am recieving ptv messages, and chanel messages over and over. will you stop PLEASE
[20:25] <ActionParsnip> Panfist: got the latest hplip?
[20:26] <ardchoille> Thank you mneptok
[20:26] <Trek> thank you mneptok *ugh*
[20:26] <fnord> liam_: find: etc/.fstab: No such file or directory
[20:26]  * ActionParsnip applauds
[20:26] <liam_> fnord, are you using a live cd now?
[20:26] <Trek> mneptok: i would have triggered !op earlier, but I decided not to until he started being rude to all
[20:26] <Falconldo> Sorry, I am a window idiot trying to redeem myself.  the bootloader stops with "File type unreckognized in Ubuntu
[20:26] <adityag> i have multiple occurrences of "AdityaGada" in html files in current folder & sub-folders, now i want to replace all the occurrences of "AdityaGada" to "KashyapGada", what do i run in terminal? Any help will be appreciated
[20:27] <fnord> Nope.
[20:27] <panfist> actionparsnip i got whatever's in karmic's repositories
[20:27] <Faenwulf> test
[20:27] <fnord> If I boot from the live CD it lets me enter the menu, but using any option causes it to freeze.
[20:27] <ActionParsnip> Panfist: grab the installer off the hplip site, chmod +x it then run it as a user (you will be prompted for your password)
[20:28] <liam_> fnord, hmm
[20:28] <acicula> adityag: best read up on sed, or use something like vim/gedit if thats to complicated
[20:28] <TheVenerableZ> Has anyone successfully installedc Qt 4.6.2 in ubuntu?
[20:28] <adityag> acicula: does sed replace all occurrences of some string to another string in current folder & subfolders ?
[20:29] <liam_> fnord, so your saying the live cd freezes
[20:29] <fnord> That's correct.
[20:29] <ardchoille> TheVenerableZ: Try #kubuntu also
[20:29] <liam_> odd
[20:29] <TheVenerableZ> ardchoille: I'm in kubuntu, but they're laconic
[20:29] <TheVenerableZ> thanks for the heads up though
[20:29] <acicula> adityag: sed is a serial line editor, you can tell it what patterns to search for and what to do with it
[20:29] <panfist> actionparnsnip and how is this going to help with the lexmark?
[20:30] <coz_> TheVenerableZ,  are you on karmic or lucid?
[20:30] <fnord> liam_: did you get the part of my msg saying what I did before the boot error? Maybe it helps... :/
[20:30] <shadi> hey all
[20:30] <shadi> is that means that i can ask anything about ubuntu here ?
[20:30] <rabbit1> jrib: its done ! :) thx a lot, that link is more helpful
[20:30] <liam_> fnord, try loading the live cd  again
[20:31] <jrib> rabbit1: cool
[20:31] <fnord> Okay, moment.
[20:31] <ActionParsnip> Panfist: it will most likely make it print ok on the hp. Lexmark lack a lot of linux support
[20:31] <arakthor> !ask | shadi
[20:31] <coz_> TheVenerableZ,  that version is in Lucid I believe
[20:31] <panfist> actionparsnip ok thanks
[20:31] <shadi> sorry i just didnt know :S
[20:31] <liam_> fnord, if sucessfull go to system>admin>gparted
[20:31] <juan__> where in the ubuntu software center can I find drivers
[20:32] <arakthor> shadi, that's why I did that - so you know now :)
[20:32] <acicula> juan__: system->administration->hardware drivers ?
[20:32] <juan__> it shows that i have non
[20:32] <shadi> if i want to move a file to folder it says that i cant coz i dont have a permission
[20:32] <acicula> juan__: for what device did you expect a driver to be there?
[20:32] <fnord> It's now loading the LiveCD's menu. I click English > Try Without Install
[20:32] <fnord> And it freezes.
[20:33] <juan__> nvidia
[20:33] <fnord> Just one moment please, I got a call.
[20:33] <rbellamy> looking for help getting setroubleshoot/sealert working....
[20:33] <acicula> juan__: for what gpu, and have you applied all updates and rebooted? you can check via administration->update-manager
[20:34] <ActionParsnip> Shadi: use: gksu nautilus ,and you will have permission (if you use gui) otherwise simply add sudo to the command you typed in your terminal
[20:34] <juan__> acicula I am trying to change my visual effects to normal but it say searching for drivers and then says can not enable desktop
[20:34] <tetsuo-> could someone tell me how to turn /home mounting back to normal? http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/6fwk2hvH
[20:34] <juan__> I did that acicula
[20:34] <juan__> check for updates
[20:34] <shadi> how can i use gksu ??
[20:35] <ardchoille> shadi: you use gksuthe same way you use sudo, but gksu is for gui apps
[20:35] <ActionParsnip> Shadi: press alt+f2 and type: gksu nautilus
[20:35] <fnord> liam_: I am back.
[20:35] <fnord> The LiveCD is still frozen.
[20:35] <ActionParsnip> !grub2 > falconldo
[20:35] <kintaro> hola
[20:36] <ActionParsnip> Fnord: does it pass cd self test?
[20:36] <shadi> alt+f12 ... i got nothing !!
[20:36] <fnord> You mean check disk for defects?
[20:36] <kintaro> alguien me ayuda con el grub2 de ubuntu
[20:36] <ActionParsnip> Shadi: alt+f2
[20:36] <ardchoille> !es | kintaro
[20:36] <ActionParsnip> Fnord: the same, yes
[20:36] <fnord> Mom I'll try.
[20:37] <acicula> juan__: what nvidia gpu is in your system?
[20:37] <_EnigmaCJ> bye
[20:37] <ActionParsnip> Fnord: if the cd isn't checked. How do you know it doesn't have errors?
[20:37] <fnord> Because I burnt it today, using a new downlaoded ISO on a CD I just got out of the cover. ;)
[20:38] <ActionParsnip> juan__: run: sudo nvidia-xconfig ,then reboot
[20:38] <ardchoille> fnord: It could have been a bad burn, that happens sometimes
[20:38] <ActionParsnip> Fnord: still worth a check
[20:38] <panfist> actionparsnip i installed the newest hplip, and now gedit can set the page orientation, but firefox and gnumeric still cannot
[20:38] <fnord> Okay, in the mean while I will try a new download + burn. :) I'm currently into private with liam_, thanks for your help ActionParsnip and ardchoille. ^^
[20:39] <ActionParsnip> Panfist: do you set the page orientation in gnumeric as landscape?
[20:39] <skrite> hey all, if i want to boot directly to a command line instead of gdm login, what should i do?
[20:39] <ActionParsnip> Fnord; remember to md5 test the iso you download
[20:40] <fnord> Will do. :)
[20:40] <Kreppnar> should just be sudo apt-get update. then upgrade, or upgrade-distro
[20:41] <ActionParsnip> !upgrade > kreppnar
[20:41] <v3rr3z> how do you build C++ code?
[20:41] <baptiste_> #ubuntu-fr
[20:41] <ActionParsnip> !ide > v3rr3z
[20:42] <John9e9> which java jre do you recommend?
[20:42] <hjsegui> hi
[20:42] <TheVenerableZ> v3rr3z: you could also try gcc
[20:42] <skrite> hjsegui, hi!
[20:42] <shadi> they said that linux is open source ... but where is the source ?:S
[20:42] <ActionParsnip> Hi hjsegui
[20:42] <juan__> here is what I am wanted I wanted to have my visual effects to be set on normal and after getting those messages I wonder if it is cause my laptop is a older model but it ran window xp
[20:42] <erUSUL> !grub2
[20:43] <John9e9> !java
[20:43] <ActionParsnip> Juan__: ubuntu runs well on low end rigs (as well as other linux distros)
[20:43] <baptiste_> Hi
[20:43] <baptiste_> could someone help me for nvidia drivers
[20:43] <ActionParsnip> Juan__: did my command not get the gold?
[20:43] <John9e9> !open source java
[20:43] <v3rr3z> I thought Ubuntu could do this all from fresh install.. or is it better to get a IDE?
[20:43] <acicula> v3rr3z: well you need to install a compiler
[20:44] <ActionParsnip> V3rr3z: if you want a gui grab an ide if you are happy to code in gedit etc then compile in terminal then that is an option also
[20:44] <juan__> thats why I am puzzle about why it wouldn't let be change to normal
[20:44] <ActionParsnip> Baptiste: use the hardware driver thing under administration
[20:44] <v3rr3z> So what do I need to do it in terminal.. just gcc/
[20:45] <ActionParsnip> Juan__: the driver isn't enabled
[20:45] <juan__> how do I enable the driver
[20:45] <ActionParsnip> V3rr3z: you would give gcc a file to compile
[20:45] <ActionParsnip> Juan__: sudo nvidia-xconfig ,then reboot
[20:46] <v3rr3z> what gui would you recommend?
[20:47] <juan__> ok be right back and I will see if this works y the way is there a book out there that has commands to everything on ubuntu actionparsnip
[20:47] <ActionParsnip> V3rr3z: try a few see which you like. You are using an OS full of choice then come into a channel for people to tell you what to use. It makes no sense
[20:47] <GodfatherofEire> Is there any way to customize the CD from a GUI? Basically booting up the live CD, but having the changes saved to it, then re-compressed to an .iso?
[20:47] <blendmaster1024> why would i get "error while loading shared libraries: libgettextpo.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory" when i go to run a program i got from a friend?
[20:48] <ActionParsnip> Juan__: some but the online stuff is more upto date and will change as the OS moves forward
[20:48] <juan__> ok be right back
[20:48] <ActionParsnip> Blendmaster1024: is the app 32bit and your OS 64bit?
[20:49] <GodfatherofEire> I would do this from the command line, except for the fact that the shell script I need to run as part of customizing is uses a GUI, not a CLI.
[20:49] <blendmaster1024> oh i don't know
[20:49] <acicula> v3rr3z: best do a google on basic program building on linux, its well documented how to work the C/C++ toolchain on ubuntu/linux
[20:49] <acicula> v3rr3z: most proramming examples will assume either gcc or its ms counterpart anyway
[20:49] <macha> One of my friends is tring to install ubuntu on a new computer. Searching the forums found that his driver is only on kernel 2.6.33 or higher. Is he out of luck?
[20:49] <macha> It just heads to a black screen after boot.
[20:49] <blakkheim> macha: yes
[20:50] <riktking> anyone good with samba, got a drive setup to share on the server that i cannot write to with a guest account smb.conf is at http://pastebin.com/kdCjQRuV
[20:51] <jediborger> Question: Previously I had clicked the "deny always" button on Evolutions couchdb sync, not knowing what it was. How do I undo this so that I can sync my contacts with Ubuntu One?
[20:51] <acicula> riktking: is the location writeable as the smb user or the user you are forcing the guest as?
[20:51] <macha> Any distros that _have_ 2. .33 then?
[20:51] <ActionParsnip> Riktking: make a samba user which will challenge for authentication, you can then set the user as having write access in smb.conf
[20:51] <shadi> if i  install vbox and install windows xp i can play fifa ?!
[20:51] <blakkheim> macha: gentoo
[20:51] <ActionParsnip> Shadi: no
[20:51] <jediborger> sadi: probably not
[20:52] <riktking> ActionParsnip, acicula i wanted to be writable from a windows PC as well as ubuntu, is there an option within the smb.conf that i need to find?
[20:52] <juan__> Actionparsnip I opened the terminal and put sudo nvidia-config and it says sudo: nvidia-config: command not found
[20:52] <ActionParsnip> Rikting: any user can have access provided they give a valid username and password, in linux or windows
[20:53] <shadi> ?
[20:53] <ActionParsnip> Juan__: then you need to install the driver using the hardware driver app
[20:53] <riktking> ActionParsnip, ok but i just want it to be password less so its open on the network
[20:54] <juan__> now I am virgin to computers so how do  do that
[20:54] <ActionParsnip> Riktking: yeah I guessed. I don't use passwordless anything s its not secure
[20:54] <ActionParsnip> Rikting: windows and ubuntu will remember the passwords for you
[20:54] <juan__> Actionparsnip how to do you do that
[20:54] <acicula> riktking: you have to specify a valid anonymous user in the smb.conf, ie a real system user, and provide this user with the rights to access the directory etc
[20:54] <ThePalacz> acicula: ping
[20:54] <acicula> ThePalacz: pong
[20:55] <shadi> m new for linux 2 weeks only i can ask everything here ?!
[20:55] <riktking> acicula, how do i do that?
[20:55] <ActionParsnip> Juan__: click system -> admin -> hardware drivers
[20:55] <prime3869> When 10.04 final is released will I have to do a clean reinstall of the fresh OS or just do an update/upgrade?
[20:55] <panfist> actionparsnip thanks for the tip regarding gnumeric that works in gnumeric that has an option to set page orientation, but what about firefox that doesn't?
[20:55] <riktking> prime3869, you will be given the option to upgrade
[20:55] <ActionParsnip> !upgrade | prime3869
[20:55] <acicula> riktking: man smb.conf or look on the samba site for docs, im sure there's an example there that can help you set that up
[20:55] <ThePalacz> ActionParsnip: ping
[20:55] <riktking> acicula, thanks
[20:55] <ActionParsnip> Panfist: no idea. I doont use it
[20:55] <acicula> riktking: incidently just right clicking in nautilus and sharing it works also without messing with config files?
[20:56] <riktking> yeh i have done that but it doesnt seem to work
[20:56] <ThePalacz> riktking: ping
[20:56] <liam_> ActionParsnip, although rembering passwords isn't such a good idea :)
[20:56] <ActionParsnip> Liam_: true
[20:56] <GodfatherofEire> Speaking of upgrades, that break from 8.04 to 8.10, was it just a fluke with that version, or has it been reported with other versions too?
[20:56] <ThePalacz> liam_: ping
[20:56] <prime3869> thanks riktking, ActionParsnip, ubottu
[20:56] <juan__> it says searching then it opens a window and its empty
[20:56] <ThePalacz> prime3869: ping
[20:56] <acicula> ThePalacz: jokes over
[20:57] <ThePalacz> acicula: this is not joke
[20:57] <ThePalacz> acicula: ping
[20:57] <_UsUrPeR_> hey all. how do I clear out a variable in bash scripting? "unset $variable>" doesn't seem to work
[20:57] <ThePalacz> kamcio2603: ping
[20:57] <riktking> GodfatherofEire, i did it via upgrade from 9.04 - 9.10 but have since re installed do to too much playing
[20:57] <kamcio2603> ThePalacz: pong
[20:57] <mrx1> xD
[20:57] <juan__> Actionparsnips it says No proprietary drivers are in use on this system

[20:57] <ThePalacz> kamcio2603: ping
[20:57] <mrx1> pls ban those kids
[20:57] <hjsegui> s
[20:57] <ardian> Does anyone configured unrealircd here ?
[20:57] <ActionParsnip> Riktking: if you want an account run: sudo smbpasswd -a $USER ,use the same password as your login if you want then add the user to allowed users in smb.conf
[20:58] <riktking> ActionParsnip, thanks
[20:58] <ActionParsnip> Riktking: gimme a sec I'll give you my file
[20:58] <GodfatherofEire> riktking, I meant have there been any problems with distro-upgrades or was it just with 8.10 that it broke things?
[20:58] <shadi> one site have sport news video.. but firefox cant play it... what should i do ?!
[20:58] <riktking> GodfatherofEire, ive never had an upgrade problem
[20:59] <riktking> GodfatherofEire, but i like a fresh install to get the new look etc, and as im running beta 10.04 id recommend it
[20:59] <GodfatherofEire> riktking, probably was just 8.10 then. I remember for a while they actually recommended doing a fresh install because of it breaking the network drivers
[21:00] <ActionParsnip> Riktking; http://pastebin.com/8j8wz0Ur
[21:00] <riktking> ActionParsnip, thanks
[21:00] <shadi> one site have sport news video.. but firefox cant play it... what should i do ?!
[21:01] <GodfatherofEire> Also, does anyone know if it's possible to chainload grub into an isolinux loader?
[21:01] <ActionParsnip> Riktking: you only need to read the bottom bit
[21:01] <Miraculix_> hi, im getting a "error: package not in control info" when compiling my kernel, any ideas?
[21:01] <GodfatherofEire> *grub2
[21:01] <riktking> thanks ActionParsnip
[21:02] <juan__> Actionparsnip the window that pops up says No proprietary drivers are in use on this system
[21:02] <ActionParsnip> Shadi: find out the plugin and install it, most likely flash
[21:02] <shadi> no ... not working !!
[21:02] <acicula> _UsUrPeR_: try without the dollar
[21:02] <_UsUrPeR_> acicula: thanks for the response. got it
[21:02] <juan__> Maybe I should I reinstall ubuntu again
[21:03] <_UsUrPeR_> also, it worked :D
[21:03] <ActionParsnip> Juan: what is the output of: lspci | grep -I vga
[21:03] <shadi> ActionParsnip : its not flash... i got flash .. and i installed mplayer and it doesnt work !!
[21:03] <hopaqk> back track 4 is good in the first time to newbie urser linux ?
[21:03] <anthonybailey> yea do you guys have opera
[21:03] <juan__> what is that
[21:04] <ActionParsnip> Shadi: then you need to find out what it is
[21:04] <erUSUL> !backtrack | hopaqk i would go with plain ubuntu more help aviable
[21:04] <ActionParsnip> Anthonybailey: used to
[21:04] <fnord> ActionParsnip: Remember me burning a new liveCD?
[21:04] <fnord> This one is being completely ignored.
[21:04] <fnord> It boots straight into grub.
[21:05] <wack479> I have been doing some research on mdadm and my raid5 array, and am i correct in my thinking that, in order to have the array put together at boot, i need to have it configurd in my mdadm.conf
[21:05] <ActionParsnip> Fnord: did you md5 test the iso and verify the cd?
[21:06] <ActionParsnip> Juan__: its a terminal command, what does it output?
[21:06] <fnord> *nods
[21:06] <adityag> any one used to GRUB2, i dont want to show up windows7 recovery entry while booting, any solution
[21:06] <shadi> ActionParsnip : its not flash... i got flash plugin .. and i installed mplayer and it doesnt work !!
[21:06] <fnord> Same goes for a DBAN CD which liam_ recommended me.

[21:07] <coolbox> anyone who got a totaly noob guide for cfengine
[21:07] <coolbox> ?
[21:07] <sYskk> ive always managed my ubuntu servers through cpanel. im currently on a new server that has no GUI interface and Im kind of lost. is there a nice tutorial somewhere on sysadmining in  the shell ? the server runs a LAMP setup
[21:07] <th3sk3ptic> adityag:are u trying to edit boot entries on Grub2?
[21:07] <ActionParsnip> Fnord: try some bootoptions and check your bios is set to boot cd
[21:08] <adityag> th3sk3ptic: yes, i want to.... i tried editing but i could not edit
[21:08] <jrib> !cli > sYskk
[21:08] <afink> is there a way to select package groups similar to redhat in ubuntu?
[21:08] <jrib> !apt > sYskk
[21:08] <jrib> sYskk: everything else is pretty much reading documentation and using a text editor...
[21:08] <jrib> afink: tasksel?
[21:08] <prayii> question: is there an aptitude equivalent to apt-get autoremove? don't they store different logs. what if, after an update a dependency is no longer required? will aptitude safe-upgrade auto remove it?
[21:09] <erUSUL> afink: sudo tasksel
[21:09] <blakkheim> prayii: aptitude does that automatically, one of the many reason it's better than apt-get
[21:09] <erUSUL> afink: or in synaptic. Edit>Select packages by task (or similar)
[21:09] <shadi> ActionParsnip : its not flash... i got flash plugin .. and i installed mplayer and it doesnt work !!
[21:09] <afink> hmm, yes but when I do that it only shows what I have installed, ok thanks
[21:09] <jrib> afink: I'm not familiar with redhat, what exactly are you looking to do?
[21:10] <adityag>  th3sk3ptic: any solution
[21:10] <ActionParsnip> Shadi: repeating won't make me know an answer
[21:10] <prayii> blakkheim: thank you very much. been bothering me for a week. lol
[21:10] <pingu__> I am running Xubuntu and created a key with Seahorse. What do I need to encrypt and decrypt text without special key plugins like in gedit?
[21:10] <nobody_lappysm> ##
[21:10] <blakkheim> pingu__: man gpg
[21:10] <Maletor> I have a boot partition on /dev/md0 and a root partition at /dev/md1 and I'm trying to install from the LiveCD. When I get to the part where I partition I hit manual then what do I do?
[21:10] <shadi> ActionParsnip : soooo.... tell me that u dont know it !!
[21:11] <sYskk> jrib: I know about CLI and APT... im just looking for management utilities to ease some tasks such as creating new users and domains for apache/mysql/ftp etc.
[21:11] <v3rr3z> Who can I private message with a very basic C++ question..
[21:11] <th3sk3ptic> adityag:the way I edit mine is editng the 40_custom file. its in /etc/grub.d/
[21:11] <jrib> sYskk: well new users, use "adduser".  For application-specific stuff it's usually best to just read the documentation for the particular project
[21:11] <acicula> th3sk3ptic: try the ##C++ channel?
[21:11] <fnord> Maletor: I'll priv you. ;)
[21:11] <ActionParsnip> Shadi: I don't know. If I were at home i'd test but I'm on a g1 phone so it won't work
[21:12] <fnord> ActionParsnip: I was just to unpatient. It automatically loads the CD.
[21:12] <fnord> And this one works, I'm now heading thowards installation. ^^
[21:12] <fnord> thnx. :)
[21:12] <shadi> it's ok ty very much
[21:12] <ActionParsnip> Fnord: cool :)
[21:12] <pingu__> blakkheim, do you know commands for example?
[21:12] <riktking> where is my smb.conf stored
[21:12] <Maletor> Thanks fnord.
[21:12] <ActionParsnip> Riktking /etc/samba
[21:12] <blakkheim> pingu__: yes, they are all in the man page
[21:13] <riktking> ActionParsnip, thanks
[21:13] <adityag> th3sk3ptic: its asking for entering new entries, i want to remove one of the detected entries while installing
[21:13] <pingu__> My knowledge of the English language is not that fine.
[21:13] <ActionParsnip> Riktking: once you get a good file, back it up. Makes life easier if you gotta reinstall ever
[21:13] <guntbert> v3rr3z: ask in ##c++-basic   please - here it is off topic
[21:14] <amanda1> http://www.mdhjakten.se/dela/?id=dti2d6s
[21:14] <ActionParsnip> Riktking: then all you have to do is install samba, copy in the file and restart the service
[21:14] <amanda1> need a movie
[21:14] <acicula> err nm th3sk3ptic was meant for v3rr3z
[21:14] <riktking> ActionParsnip, whats the restart command for samba
[21:14] <guntbert> pingu__: there is #ubuntu-de too
[21:14] <ActionParsnip> Amanda1: go spam elsewhere

[21:17] <Gaming4JC> hey all, I would like to know if I can access my memory card from my Xbox controller on Ubuntu. You can do this via a driver on windows, but Ubuntu doesn't seem to do this?
[21:17] <coolbox> can I ask about cfengine on ubuntu in here?
[21:17] <riktking> Gaming4JC, have u tried just pluggin it it?
[21:17] <Gaming4JC> riktking: Yes, it only detects it as a joypad - no memory card/usb drive showing up
[21:18] <riktking> Gaming4JC, i do not know anymore than that im afraid
[21:18] <ActionParsnip> Gaming4jc: do you see it in the output of: sudo fdisk -l
[21:18] <joesphbailey> to hack a modem fairpoint wireless settings type in on your browser 192.168.1.1 and  put in admin. password.
[21:18] <ActionParsnip> Joesphbailey: page not displayed

[21:19] <zamba> in debian, in what file do i set options to enable ip forwarding?
[21:19] <zamba> permanently
[21:20] <ActionParsnip> Gaming4jc: probably needs some proprietary thing then. It is microsoft after all
[21:20] <zamba> i find that i need to go in and enable it manually after a reboot
[21:20] <nibbler> zamba, /etc/sysctl.conf
[21:20] <riktking> ActionParsnip, im having issues, whats the GUI for smb configuration
[21:20] <ActionParsnip> Zamba: debian isn't supported here

[21:21] <juan__> could that be a problem
[21:21] <saruja> holaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

[21:21] <timClicks> i have 4 ubuntu computers in at home, are there any community docs on how to set up one as an apt repository, so that I only need to make one set of downloads from the global servers?
[21:22] <Maletor> Should I format ext4 for /boot partition?
[21:22] <pulse00> hi all. anyone knows how to add /usr/local/lib to the library path by default ?
[21:22] <timClicks> Maletor: do you need a /boot partition?
[21:22] <timClicks> Maletor: I would stick with ext2 as it's highly reliable
[21:22] <ActionParsnip> Timclicks: apt-mirror is what you need (I think)
[21:22] <timClicks> Maletor: It also works well with almost all driers
[21:22] <timClicks> ActionParsnip: ty
[21:23] <timClicks> Maletor: s/driers/drivers/
[21:23] <Maletor> timClicks: yes, i need /boot. Grub doesn't like RAID5 at the moment. So I will RAID1 my /boot
[21:23] <fnord> Hiya, all works, thanks at all who've helped me, and have a nice evening. ^^
[21:23] <ActionParsnip> Juan__: run the lspci command io gave earlier in a terminal, what is output?
[21:24] <ActionParsnip> Fnord: glad you got the gold. Straight to bed for me :)
[21:25] <timClicks> Maletor: ah, I see.. I would use the older filesystem, it's unlikely to fail on you.. you don't need something that's massively quick, you need something that will work
[21:25] <adityag> th3sk3ptic: i can disable os_prober but i just want to disable recovery windows7 partition & want to retain an entry to windows
[21:25] <Maletor> K.
[21:26] <wack479> I have been doing some research on mdadm and my raid5 array, and am i correct in my thinking that, in order to have the array put together at boot, i need to have it configurd in my mdadm.conf

[21:31] <Miraculix_> im getting that when trying to rebuild my kernel without make-kpkg clean first, dont want to recompile everything just one .c file changed
[21:34] <ardchoille> !hcl
[21:34] <blackxored> Can anyone help me seeking for drivers for a modem for a HP 6730s laptop?????
[21:35] <erUSUL> !dialup | blackxored
[21:36] <Radtoo> Miraculix_: that is a really poor trade-off of convenience and speed vs kernel integrity. use ccache and distcc or something safe like that when running make-kpkg instead
[21:36] <blackxored> erUSUL, I want drivers, it's detected as a sound device, if i'm right, also scanModem doesn't seem to have proper output
[21:37] <th3sk3ptic> adityag:this is what my 40_custom grub looks like http://pastebin.com/Mg6QayZm

[21:37] <kernco> How can I get quicktime streaming videos working in a browser?  I've tried the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/StreamingVideo and it still doesn't work in Firefox or Chrome
[21:38] <Miraculix_> Radtoo, im just trying to recompile the kernel and generate a new .deb file after changing a single .c file
[21:38] <Miraculix_> Radtoo, im using this: fakeroot make-kpkg --initrd --append-to-version=-some-string-here kernel-image kernel-headers
[21:38] <nimrod10> kernco, if I'm not mistaking you'll have to install mplayer extension for firefox
[21:38] <nimrod10> kernco, search for it in the ubuntu software center
[21:38] <Radtoo> Miraculix_: And? If anything at all depends on that source file - which is hard to see in c - it is a bad idea. Just use ccache and / or distcc if it is too slow, stick with the usual toolset for the rest.
[21:39] <Miraculix_> nothing depends on it, i wrote it :p
[21:40] <bubbles|> hi
[21:40] <bubbles|> why isn't gksudo accepting my root password?
[21:40] <th3sk3ptic> kernco:I installed totem-mozilla to get stuff like that working
[21:40] <Radtoo> Miraculix_: ok. perhaps your version string is bad then?
[21:41] <Radtoo> Miraculix_: do you have a number?
[21:41] <erUSUL> !root | bubbles|
[21:41] <jrib> bubbles|: because gksudo doesn't want a root password

[21:41] <mmm> HI

[21:51] <erUSUL> LinuxGuy2009: it is better to use linux software raid.
[21:51] <eisenhower> question. i built a program where is the most common place to drop it away from my desktop?
[21:52] <JULian-neiva> ubuntu is fantasticcc
[21:52] <erUSUL> LinuxGuy2009: if you really want raid-0
[21:52] <guntbert> bubbles|: use gksudo but give the password of your user - not the root password
[21:52] <LinuxGuy2009> erUSUL: Ok. Is that the same as LVM or whatever its called that I saw in partitioning I think thats what its called?
[21:52] <Gaming4JC> eisenhower: Depending on the program, most get installed in "/usr/bin"? You could put it there and create a shortcut to your desktop.
[21:52] <erUSUL> !raid | LinuxGuy2009
[21:52] <eisenhower> Gaming4JC,  okay now whats the best way to move it there with rights?

[21:56] <bubbles|> guntbert hm.. i don't think so - is that a prerequisite for using ubuntu's way of sudo? (without a root password)?
[21:56] <n3r0> thx for the tip,will look it up!
[21:57] <kernco> kbrosnan: Yes, it actually is working now in Chrome, but still not Firefox for some reason.  That's ok, though because I always use Chrome.
[21:57] <frxstrem> why did suddenly my backspace key (which is located left of the space key) and space suddenly switch functionality, and how can I undo this?
[21:57] <frxstrem> it kinda annoys me :|
[21:58] <guntbert> bubbles|: yes it is - but you can try (for the moment) another thing - use sux instead of su (should forward X authority info)
[21:58] <bubbles|> ok, i'll try that... sux in the console? or sux instead of gksu?
[21:58] <xangua> n3r0: you can install compiz in xubuntu/xfce but you will need a windows decorator like metacity or emerald
[21:58] <airtonix> n3r0, don't mistake the compiz settings with 'graphics performance'.
[21:59] <soreau> xangua: You mean gtk-window-decorator or emerald
[21:59] <soreau> The former is provided by compiz-gnome
[21:59] <guntbert> bubbles|: in the console - then you might be able to run x apps again
[21:59] <burg> hello. is there any way i can make my audio input port to act as an audio output port? (because my audio output port is broken) - i use ubuntu 9.10
[22:00] <airtonix> burg, not unless the kernel modules for your sound card support it (which will be obvious by looking at the sound preferences)

[22:02] <xangua> !lucid | orbarron
[22:02] <guntbert> bubbles|: does it offer that?
[22:03] <mamefan> Can anyone provide me some steps to manually configure a WEP wireless from the console?
[22:03] <bubbles|> guntbert yes, i just installed it... how do i use it? sux synaptic sases unkown id: synaptic
[22:03] <airtonix> mamefan, why from console ?
[22:03] <mamefan> So I can access the net.
[22:03] <airtonix> mamefan, thats obvious.
[22:03] <frxstrem> can anyone help me with my keyboard issue?
[22:04] <mamefan> I don't want to (or in some cases cannot) use a GUI.
[22:04] <airtonix> mamefan, why can you not use the gui ?
[22:04]  * orbarron was trying to get a beta release
[22:04] <guntbert> bubbles|: no, just sux -  (like with su) (mind the dash, it is part of the command) - then you should get a root shell with x permission
[22:05] <airtonix> mamefan, are you using openbox ?
[22:05] <mamefan> I'm not opposed to using a GUI - but right now KDE is badly broken on my machine so I cannot use it.
[22:05] <mamefan> I'm using Kubuntu 9.10.
[22:05] <guntbert> bubbles|: but why don't you use aptitude /apt-get to manage your software?
[22:05] <blackxored> it is somehow possible to use/convert a 32-bit object file (*.o) in a x86_64 system????
[22:05] <orbarron> thanks xangua and ubottu
[22:05] <bubbles|> guntbert ok, but that gives me the same result als su : "Gkk-WARNING **: cannot open display: :1004.0"
[22:06] <erUSUL> blackxored: short answer is no
[22:06] <bubbles|> guntbert i'm still very new to linux and feel more comfortable with synatpic - but that's not the only graphical tool i need...
[22:06] <blackxored> erUSUL: The drivers are only for 32 bits
[22:06] <blackxored> and I have object files which source isn't provided so it doesnt let me build
[22:07] <erUSUL> blackxored: thae drivers for what?
[22:07] <blackxored> erUSUL, for the winmodem I was talking about earlier
[22:07] <mamefan> Perhaps a different (but similar) question...  how do I get WiFi to connect without logging-in to KDE.  It connects once I log in but if I'm remote and reboot the machine I cannot access it again until someone logs in and establishes the connection.
[22:08] <guntbert> bubbles|: can you run graphical apps as you non root user?
[22:08] <blackxored> I have agrmodemlib.o which is ELF 32 and no source for that file, all others are there
[22:08] <bubbles|> guntbert if i haven't mentioned it earlier, i'm using nx to connect to the server
[22:08] <erUSUL> blackxored: :/ well you are out of luck it seems
[22:08] <bubbles|> guntbert yes
[22:08] <bubbles|> just not after su / sudo / sux
[22:08] <bubbles|> guntbert just not after su / sudo / sux
[22:09] <kamix1991> jest tutaj ktos z Polski?
[22:09] <blackxored> erUSUL, any clues???
[22:09] <blackxored> anyone???
[22:09] <guntbert> bubbles|: I have no experience with NX, but the underlying mechanism should be standard
[22:09] <burg> airtonix, what should i search for, explicitely?
[22:09] <airtonix> mamefan, you might like to check if nm-applet is still running and kill it before you try to manually manipulate the iwconfig settings .
[22:09] <blackxored> I have to either recompile that or be able to build the target, convert it to x86
[22:09] <airtonix> burg, a new sound card ?
[22:10] <bubbles|> guntbert is there any restriction for runing graphical apps as root over remote sessions?
[22:12] <guntbert> bubbles|:  add your user to the admin group - for this  1) cp /etc/group /etc/group.backup   2) nano /etc/group  3) search the line with admin and add the name of your user to the end 4) save the file 5) log in afresh as that user and try some sudo command
[22:13] <bubbles|> how do i un-su again? or do i just su olduser ?
[22:13] <ip_> i keep getting permission denied on my ubuntu desktop when I try to scp a file. Any reasons for this? I'm currently root
[22:13] <erUSUL> guntbert: sudo adduser <username> admin
[22:13] <guntbert> bubbles|: ctrl+d
[22:14] <bubbles|> ok, thanks - give me one moment to do all that...
[22:14] <guntbert> erUSUL: didn't know that, thx -- bubbles| do what erUSUL said to me ^^
[22:14] <barakuda> Hello there! I was wondering if there exists a program which lets me recover the software from my ntfs usb drive! I accidentally deleted some files and I would like to recover them(from ntfs usb drive)
[22:14] <erUSUL> ip_: you do not have permissions in the remote host ?
[22:14] <bubbles|> ahh, but sudo dosn't  work xD
[22:15] <erUSUL> barakuda: photorec from testdisk package may help
[22:15] <bubbles|> but i guess su will work
[22:15] <guntbert> bubbles|: just do it as root
[22:15] <guntbert> bubbles|: sorry - I have to leave -- Good luck :-)
[22:15] <bubbles|> guntbert "the group admin does not exist"
[22:15] <bubbles|> ok, thanks :)
[22:16] <bubbles|> erUSUL what do i do if the group admin doesn't exist?
[22:16] <barakuda> thanks erUSUL, I'll try that.
[22:16] <erUSUL> bubbles|: how can that be possible ? is this a stock ubuntu install ?
[22:17] <bubbles|> erUSUL it's a vserver from hostloco.com ...
[22:17] <bubbles|> erUSUL but it's nothing that can't be fixed right?
[22:18] <erUSUL> bubbles|: well maybe that vserver is not an ubuntu system and does not need an admin group nor sudo. how can i tell ?
[22:18] <erUSUL> bubbles|: what does « lsb_release -a » says ?
[22:18] <bubbles|> i'm pretty sure it's ubuntu... at least the gnome desktop looks like it...
[22:19] <bubbles|> http://nopaste.php-q.net/276470 <-- erUSUL that's what it says
[22:20] <erUSUL> ok so is a hardy install ....
[22:20] <bubbles|> yes, 8.04
[22:20] <bubbles|> is hardy special in any way?
[22:20] <erUSUL> still it should have an admin group ...
[22:20] <bubbles|> can't i create one afterwards?
[22:21] <erUSUL> bubbles|: can you paste your sudoers file ? "sudo less /etc/sudoers"
[22:21] <bubbles|> one moment erUSUL ...
[22:23] <bubbles|> erUSUL: http://nopaste.php-q.net/276471
[22:23] <bubbles|> how bad is it? :x
[22:23] <h4f> Do you know of any open source code analysis tools like Fortify ?
[22:24] <acicula> for what language
[22:24] <erUSUL> bubbles|: you did this modificatins to the system ?
[22:25] <bubbles|> erUSUL the only thing i did was to install gnome, nx and create a second user other than root...
[22:25] <acicula> h4f: there are some basic standard rule programs like rats, valgrind, and the like,
[22:25] <erUSUL> bubbles|: well the truth is this hardy instal seems heavy modified from the stock one you should ask hostloco for support.
[22:26] <bubbles|> hm... is it that hard to create a user group admin?
[22:26] <erUSUL> bubbles|: in the meantinme adding your new user to group sudo will give him the power to use sudo *without* pasword
[22:26] <nicodarious> when i add entries into root's crontab, will they be executed in the times given in the crontab?  I'm kinda new at creating crontab entries, so I am just looking for some info.
[22:26] <erUSUL> bubbles|: so « sudo adduser username sudo »
[22:26] <erUSUL> bubbles|: good luck
[22:27] <erUSUL> !cron | nicodarious

[22:30] <smirnoff> hello people
[22:31] <hello_what_is_up> .i do not have an ISO file
[22:31] <juan_> Anyone know how to find out what graphics card I have without opening my laptop up
[22:31] <airtonix> hello_what_is_up, then you're out of luck.
[22:31] <hello_what_is_up> i have a bunch of folders and files which i copied onto my local machine from the root of the original disc
[22:31] <abed> hello ppl
[22:31] <hello_what_is_up> i then slipstreamed in the drivers i need
[22:31] <flyingtabmow> is there a way of distinguishing between remote logins and local logins?  i need to load different modmaps depending on whether a login occurs through xdmcp or locally... looking at the ouptut of env it doesn't seem there's anything set that would let me distinguish between these two cases (i thought there might be a REMOTEHOST variable set, but it doesn't look like it)
[22:31] <smirnoff> I just upgraded to lucid and i can't find the volume control in indicator appelet. there is only chat, mail and brodcast. any help ?
[22:31] <airtonix> hello_what_is_up, it wont work that way.

[22:31] <picard1421> hey guys im running ubuntu server 8.04 LTS i have a problem that my IP is dynamic... i want to have my DNS hosted somewhere that can change depending on the DNS setup
[22:32] <abed> i installed ubunto on my vaio
[22:32] <nicodarious> well this sucks.  I can't fund anything on running shell scripts with crontab.  do I have to add in the full 'sh ./folder/shell.sh' or just throw in the './folder/shell.sh'
[22:32] <airtonix> flyingtabmow, use dbus events
[22:32] <hello_what_is_up> there has to be a way, because i've read guides on slipstreaming
[22:32] <abed> and everything was fine only the internel mic didnt work
[22:32] <airtonix> hello_what_is_up, slipstreaming is a windows term. there are no windows slipstreaming tools in linux.
[22:32] <flyingtabmow> @airtonix  cool thanks i'll look into that
[22:33] <Mr-R> picard1421: are you looking for www.dyndns.com or something like that?
[22:33] <juan_> Anyone know what sudo I have to type in the terminal to tell me what graphics card i hav
[22:33] <picard1421> yea will that work with ubuntu server? for automatica DNS updates?
[22:33] <hello_what_is_up> i don't need a slipstreaming tool.all i did was copy my drivers into the "upgrades" folder on the vista root.
[22:33] <erUSUL> juan_: lspci | grep -i vga
[22:33] <picard1421> like automatically update the IP?
[22:33] <abed> someone plz tell me how can i make my internal Mic work in ubuntu ????
[22:34] <xfact> Hello everyone
[22:34] <airtonix> hello_what_is_up, you should ask in #windows.

[22:36] <juan_> what does this mean 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: S3 Inc. SuperSavage IX/C SDR (rev 05
[22:36] <janisozaur> I'm implementing an RSA algorithm and I'd like to use gpg keys. Does anyone know how can I extract the actual values stored in GPG key or where would be a better place to ask?
[22:36] <Dazzled> hi :)
[22:37] <juan_> 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: S3 Inc. SuperSavage IX/C SDR (rev 05   what does this mean
[22:38] <xfact> What kind of application is Computer janitor, it always kills anything not directly related to Ubuntu repository :(
[22:38] <Sensiva> juan_ it tells the brand and model of the installed VGA controller
[22:38] <Dazzled> I've got a machine that I revived, boots both Windows XP and a Fedora 2 distro, but the CD-drive seems to be unable to read my ubuntu CD (which works fine on another PC), I've read through all the booting options, but still don't know what I should try
[22:39] <juan_> I am trying to find a driver for my graphics card and not sure where to go
[22:39] <flyingtabmow> airtonix, could you be a little more specific on how i might use dbus events?  currently i'm trying to put something along the lines of "if [ (test to see if login is via xdmcp) ] xmodmap ... fi" in my .xsession file (which doesn't seem to be run when i login using xdmcp, but that's a different issue)... are there dbus commands that would work in that if statement?
[22:39] <Sensiva> Dazzled use wubi or unetbootin to boot ubuntu image from harddrive
[22:39] <Dazzled> and is the space that is used 'reclaimable'?
[22:39] <Dazzled> as the total space is 4GB or so
[22:39] <Dazzled> so it's a tight fit
[22:40] <airtonix> flyingtabmow, you need to create a script that sets up a listener for events
[22:40] <Dazzled> (I was planning to format the target machine)
[22:40] <abed> hello! i have installed ubuntu and everything was going great exept for one thing my internal mic i tried everything but it just wont work or even show in the sound properties or in alsa , can anyone plzzzz help to get it work???
[22:41] <Dazzled> abed, perhaps the brand of laptop, or the brand of mic would help?
[22:41] <flyingtabmow> airtonix - ok... would that ensure that the modmaps would only affect the x client involved in the xdmcp session, and not local sessions?
[22:41] <mimor> abed, with hat program are you trying to get the audio from the mic?
[22:41] <Sensiva> juan_ https://www.dyndns.com/support/clients/#linux

[22:48] <samc> it may be that the fedora machines use vim by default, but you've got Some Other Vi installed
[22:48] <samc> there are a few software packages around that provide a vi-like editor
[22:48] <abed> ok thx alot for ur help mimor
[22:48] <samc> I'd say try installing vim-basic, and try using vim and see if it feels more familiar

[22:53] <ckarsen> sorry, do not understand what you mean
[22:53] <samc> ckarsen: try running 'X :0' as root - that'll attempt to start the X server with nothing running inside it.  If you get a grey screen with an 'X' mouse cursor, press ctrl+alt+backspace to drop back to the console

[22:56] <unop> cached,  I'm trying to figure out what you're missing -- and I think you want vim instead of vi
[22:56] <cached> yah vi isnt in the universe
[22:56] <unop> cached, if that's the case - then installing the vim-full package should suffice
[22:56] <cached> only vim

[23:03] <erUSUL> ckarsen: /dev/fb0 is the floppy drive
[23:03] <schlaftier> ckarsen: why did you have to restart? Were you unable to kill X?
[23:03] <hiexpo> it must not be fat 32 than because i have been doing this for years

[23:07] <f00bar80> any comment ?
[23:07] <trelayne> iceroot,  the reason I ask is that I have quite a few probs with compiz freezing after I moved to 9.04. Was the only complaint I ever had with Ubuntu. So hopefully 10.10 LTS is superfix
[23:07] <ckarsen> I typed
[23:07] <iceroot> trelayne: the current stable-release is 9.10  not 9.04
[23:07] <ckarsen> and cursor is now out of the line... totally down in the screen
[23:07] <sinisterstuf> thanks man
[23:07] <sinisterstuf> the disc was in fat32 when i bought it
[23:08] <sinisterstuf> and i wasn't using linux yet at the time
[23:08] <Grenyaris> Maybe not so quick question...
[23:08] <schlaftier> ckarsen: I have no idea what that means
[23:08] <ckarsen> thank you anyway friends... I'll try to install once again
[23:08] <jerome__> q. how can i can rid of pulseaudio ? is there a preference somewhere ?

[23:09] <schlaftier> ckarsen: good luck but why do you think a reinstall will work
[23:09] <RambJoe> anyone have an ATI card on Lucid Lynx?
[23:09] <schlaftier> ckarsen: instead you could give us the error messages so we could try to help you
[23:09] <acicula> RambJoe: try #ubuntu+1
[23:09] <trelayne> iceroot, thanks but I heard that 9.10 has similar probs... anyway... excited about 10.10 nonetheless
[23:09] <RambJoe> ok
[23:09] <gunnarahlberg> anyone help me with my reocurring loss of 3rd level keyboard?
[23:10] <RambJoe> oh thats the lucid lynx channel, thanks :)
[23:10] <acicula> yup
[23:10] <jrib> trelayne: you mean 10.04?
[23:10] <sinisterstuf> cheers
[23:10] <jrib> trelayne: the versions correspond to dates by the way.  10.04 == 2010 April
[23:11] <Grenyaris> It doesn't even seem to help when I change Ubuntu versions or run from a CD, they always say "wireless is disabled" but I can connect using "ifup/down"
[23:11] <Bodsda> Hi, when running ls, I notice that all files are grouped by directory, e.g. there is a line break and a new block per directory. How can I make ls just print every file one line after the other, regardless of whether it is in a different directory?
[23:11] <trelayne> jrib,  yes sorry. Thanks, good to know!
[23:12] <erUSUL> Bodsda: ls can not do that... find can
[23:12] <abhiSri>  I was trying to create a remix of Ubuntu to include some particular software's and tested reconstructor and RemasterSys . But both modify original. Can anyone suggest any tutorial for working on it from scratch
[23:12] <abhiSri> ?
[23:12] <erUSUL> Bodsda: find . -type f -print
[23:12] <jrib> Bodsda: yes, why do you want to?
[23:12] <iflema> Grenyaris so what happens if you enable it in network manager?
[23:12] <Bodsda> jrib: I just find the current format rather irritating, I couldnt care less if it is in a seperate dir, I just want to recursively list files
[23:12] <Grenyaris> it won't enable, like it just doesn't see them...
[23:13] <unop> Bodsda, 'find' is your friend then
[23:13] <f00bar80> hello any comment
[23:13] <ckarsen> Thank you friend very much.. as I told, will try to reinstall.. if it is not working I'll come back tomorrow... THANK YOU
[23:13] <Bodsda> erUSUL: cheers, that works great, only thing is, the last three lines say -- find: ‘type’: No such file or directory
[23:14] <abhiSri>  I was trying to create a remix of Ubuntu to include some particular software's and tested reconstructor and RemasterSys . But both modify original. Can anyone suggest any tutorial for working on it from scratch

[23:18] <magicjoe> jrib, any other idea?
[23:18] <jrib> magicjoe: how about the rest of what I said before?
[23:18] <schlaftier> Bodsda: find . -type f print
[23:18] <jrib> magicjoe: and you have to read the command's documentation, I don't remember what the options do
[23:18] <erUSUL> Bodsda: whare are the "-" ? type and print need a - in front of them « find . -type f -print »
[23:19] <erUSUL> schlaftier: print needs the - too

[23:20] <erUSUL> xp: can you paste the outpu of « lspci » ?
[23:20] <erUSUL> !paste
[23:20] <schlaftier> Bodsda: also, if you are only interested in the file name without the path, try: find . -type f -printf '%f\n'
[23:20] <meganerd> erUSUL: it is probably an atheros, I have a couple of their APs kicking around

[23:22] <Ditso> hi I'm looking for some advice of setting up a samba server
[23:22] <xp> can i get driver from net
[23:22] <xp> or what should i do
[23:23] <Grenyaris> Ditso: Install SAMBA (SMB, etc) - it is just that simple
[23:23] <Ditso> I'm trying to get a samba server running and connecting to it via openVPN
[23:23] <cached> and 10dw doesnt exist as a command . .
[23:23] <Ditso> If it is possible?
[23:23] <Ditso> the samba server is running and it works locally
[23:24] <meganerd> Ditso: it is possible, I just sshfs
[23:24] <Grenyaris> Ditso: first thins first, sudo apt-get install samba
[23:24] <Grenyaris> Ok, if it is running already, then where is the problem
[23:24] <Grenyaris> ?
[23:24] <meganerd> Ditso: I mean I just use sshfs now.  What is the problem when connected via OVPN?
[23:25] <meganerd> Ditso: can you ping the samba server when you connect with the VPN?
[23:25] <Ditso> that's te problem cannot connect with the VPN yet
[23:26] <xp> what should i do
[23:26] <Grenyaris> Ditso: ah. Are you VPN to a URL? Is that URL *on* the machine you have the samba share on?
[23:27] <amanda1> http://www.mdhjakten.se/dela/?id=dti2d6s
[23:27] <amanda1> oh well well
[23:27] <Ditso> I still have to install openVPN on the machine with the samba server
[23:27] <erUSUL> cached: it is not a command for ex it is something you just type out of insert or appen mode

[23:28] <bubbles|> why can't i use the unlock button in users-admin in gnome?
[23:28] <Ditso> yes but i still have to configure it
[23:28] <Grenyaris> Ditso: Yes, it is possible. What kind of alternatives are you looking for? VPN, Remote Desktop (VNC), or SSH?
[23:28] <knoppix> And, it's been like 5 years since I ran xchat, pardon my etiquette :)
[23:29] <magul> Distro, private chat maybe?
[23:29] <Ditso> i would like to share files over network and on different os's
[23:29] <magul> ok
[23:29] <erUSUL> !samba
[23:29] <meganerd> Ditso: there are other options as well, but what you want will work, just within the limitations of your connection
[23:30] <Grenyaris> Ditso: just "share them over the network and between environments"?
[23:30] <Grenyaris> Ditso: You don't need VPN for that, unless it is BETWEEN networks
[23:30] <magul> Ditso: I've start private chat with you
[23:30] <Ditso> ah ok
[23:30] <Grenyaris> Ditso: on the same network, you just need samba
[23:30] <Ditso> yes but it is between networks
[23:31] <Ditso> i know
[23:32] <magul> I have implement VPN to use samba in my work, so i can help You, but i don't know if You are answering my question

Nividia-glx-185 reports 2 conflicts (nvidia-glx and xorg-driver-fglrx).  Do i need to remove Nvidia before trying to install the version 185 hardware driver?  I previously had an ATI card installed.
[23:42] <erUSUL> Obsidian1723-2: correct; and only support question. renadom ranting about it is forbiden too ;)
[23:42] <iceroot> Obsidian1723-2: this channel is only for stable-release which are still in support
[23:42] <Tm_T> Obsidian1723-2: no, but as lucid is not supported, it's not discussed here
[23:42] <Obsidian1723-2> gotcha.
