| IsoLnCHiP | Byan: Yes its possible to have different workspaces on different monitors. One example is xmonad, it takes some getting used to, but once you get the hang of it and get past the haskell part (grudge off) its cool | 00:00 |

| RoadRunner | I had Windows 7 installed on my 1 TB HDD and I have another HDD that is 500GB that I just installed Ubuntu on but whenever I turned my computer on it just boots straight into windows. It doesn't have a bootloader and I tried using EasyBCD but was unsuccessful. What should I do? | 00:02 |
| brummbaer | byan: don't think so, they'd be on diff x sessions | 00:02 |
| Byan | brummbaer: yeah, exactly | 00:03 |
| Byan | hmmm | 00:03 |
| igoryonya | alazyworkaholic, you need to uncheck the Skype's let skype manage microfone automatically setting, or something like that and then in the volume control, move the mic all the way up. | 00:03 |
| Byan | oh well | 00:03 |
| coz_ | daedhead, mm you may want to speak with soreau about this.. he know quite a bit about ati problem solving | 00:03 |
| daedhead | ok | 00:03 |
| igoryonya | alazyworkaholic, there is a problem with Skype, where it moves the mic volume all the way down, when that check box in Skype's properties is checked. | 00:03 |
| RoadRunner | I just installed Ubuntu on 1 of 2 HDDs but whenever i turn on the computer it just boots straight into windows. It doesn't have a bootloader and I tried using EasyBCD but as unsuccessful. What should I do? | 00:04 |

| soreau | deadkode: What graphics card model is it? | 00:04 |
| sassinoogi | coz_....your suggestions didn't pan. Do I have to reinstall the driver if the system recognizes the printer? How do I know for sure? | 00:04 |

| M1ck3y | Hey all! How do I get the ubuntu Network manager to open from the terminal? | 00:04 |
| jrib | jshriver: basically, you can have exim just relay mail through some smtp server (like google's for example). If you don't want to do that though, I'd still suggest you check your firewall for sure before moving on | 00:04 |
| coz_ | daedhead, he is logged on right now.... i dont know if he is at his system at the moment so just alert him by typing his name and also giving him the readout of lspci | grep -i vga | 00:04 |
| RoadRunner | I just installed Ubuntu on 1 of 2 HDDs but whenever i turn on the computer it just boots straight into windows. It doesn't have a bootloader and I tried using EasyBCD but as unsuccessful. What should I do? - Windows 7 + Ubuntu 10.04 dualboot | 00:05 |
| RoadRunner | coz_ he just said something | 00:05 |
| daedhead | whats that | 00:05 |
| soreau | daedhead: Which model card is it as reported by the output of 'lspci|grep VGA' ? | 00:05 |
| shazbotmcnasty | RoadRunner, Install grub | 00:05 |
| coz_ | sassinoogi, well y ou could delete the current driver and reinstall it | 00:05 |
| shazbotmcnasty | RoadRunner, what ubuntu did you install? | 00:05 |
| daedhead | i have mobility 3600 HD | 00:05 |
| coz_ | deadkode, that will give a read of of the exact card you have on the system | 00:05 |

| foxmulder881 | RoadRunner, which drive order are they installed onto? | 00:05 |
| sassinoogi | i'll try that | 00:05 |
| IsoLnCHiP | Byan: at least nvidia cards have an expand desktop mode, where you can move windows between monitors, I think another option was xinerama | 00:05 |
| coz_ | deadkode, you open a terminal and type lspci | grep -i vga or just copy and paste that into the terminal window | 00:06 |
| shazbotmcnasty | RoadRunner, http://www.ubuntu-inside.me/2009/06/howto-recover-grub2-after-windows.html | 00:06 |
| daedhead | soreau i had to boot to windows | 00:06 |
| sassinoogi | coz_: what if it's not on the model listing? | 00:06 |
| IsoLnCHiP | jshriver: Smarthost refers to you ISPs Mailserver, its like sending mail from a 'normal' Mailclient. try a websearch for exim smarthost setup, I think you mentioned exim before? | 00:07 |
| SnSega | why you speak english here | 00:07 |
| jshriver | IsoLnCHiP: ok ty | 00:07 |
| jshriver | bbiab | 00:07 |
| soreau | daedhead: I guess fglrx driver sucks. The good news is, the open radeon driver supports this card for 3D now and this will be in the Lucid release. 3D should work even on a live cd, without installing any proprietary driver | 00:07 |
| coz_ | sassinoogi, mm it should be if it was working previously or at least one that is close to the model you have ....if not you may have find out if your printer is still supported but if it was already working prior to updates it should be | 00:07 |
| coz_ | sassinoogi, it should be in there | 00:07 |
| RoadRunner | I have 3 HDDs, a 1TB - Windows 7 x64, a 500GB - Ubuntu 10.04 x64 and another 500GB. I originally had Windows 7 installed first then I installed Ubuntu doing a complete erase of the 500GB HDD. Now whenever I boot up it just boots into Windows. I can also see the Linux partition in windows disk management tool | 00:08 |
| igoryonya | RoadRunner, I've had a similar problem. I changed the Ubuntu HDD to be the 1st boot HDD in BIOS and it fixed my problem. | 00:08 |

| RoadRunner | igoryonya, cool, another question.. | 00:09 |
| RoadRunner | is GRUB always installed by default? | 00:09 |
| foxmulder881 | RoadRunner, what igoryonya suggested was a good idea. I suspect that you have your drives booting or installed in the wrong order. | 00:09 |
| RoadRunner | I was just under the understanding that grub didn't even install haha | 00:09 |
| === xdaniel is now known as x11daniel | ||

| RisingChurch | Like on the same HD. | 00:09 |
| IsoLnCHiP | jshriver: hmm, dont know if using gmail is going to work, so far ive only used smtp mail providers for smarthost setups, so you might want to check with you ISP if you have a mail address with them | 00:09 |
| alazyworkaholic | igoryonya: thanks for the suggestion, but I'd already taken care of that. Sound - Input doesn't pick up sound even if I leave skype off & check that mic boost & mic volume are maxed in alsamixer | 00:09 |
| RoadRunner | well it wasn't installed on the same HDD as windows 7 | 00:10 |
| igoryonya | RoadRunner, I am not sure about GRUB, I am a new user to linux, yet. | 00:10 |

| jshriver | IsoLnCHiP: unfortunately I dont have an email with my isp. but think I'm making ground :) | 00:11 |

| M1ck3y | RisingChurch: wait a second, what do I do to get it on my desktop? right click? | 00:15 |
| igoryonya | alazyworkaholic, some soundcards have several mic inputs, some of them don't have a physical plug, and sound drivers could default to the one without a plug for some reason. You need to manually select the right one (but I don't remember where it is :( ) | 00:15 |

| Kangarooo | whats the name of tty package? | 00:16 |
| soreau | ratdog: So.. 1) Boot into recovery mode 2) Run 'sudo apt-get remove --purge xorg-driver-fglrx' 3) Open x conf with 'sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf' 4) Remove (or comment out) the line: Driver "fglrx" 5) Do Ctrl+X, then 'y' and enter to save 6) Reboot. | 00:16 |

| hiexpo | ratdog, was off topic | 00:35 |
| ratdog | oh | 00:35 |
| mertle | hiexpo: I don't know about backtrack - do they offer diff desktop environments? | 00:35 |
| hiexpo | mertle, nope | 00:36 |
| IsoLnCHiP | Anyone have an idea why ssh pops up a gui window asking me to unlock my private key, after having manually renamed my useraccount? | 00:36 |
| Quepratil | When I minimized a particular one with its minimize button or task bar section, the other minimizes too. It takes two clicks at the task bar section to minimize it. for the other window, minimizing it doesn't minimize the other, but it minimizes without animation. | 00:36 |
| mertle | hiexpo: see if there is a package at gnome or sumthin | 00:36 |
| ratdog | well, here i go wish me luck | 00:36 |
| ratdog | :) | 00:36 |
| hiexpo | mertle, ok | 00:36 |
| Kangarooo | mertle: i t also has no timestamps can recognize how to see error there. should i upload thouse 2 files to pastebin? can u have a look? | 00:36 |
| hiexpo | mertle, ok thanks | 00:36 |
| KaOSoFt | Why does Ubuntu makes a personalized Firefox? It cannot be upgraded to 3.6, for instance. | 00:37 |
| mertle | Kangarooo: it would prob be near the end - I could look | 00:37 |
| Kangarooo | mertle: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/410302/ thats xorg.log and .xsessionerrors http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/410304/ | 00:37 |
| KaOSoFt | Sure, I could download it as a separated packaged, but why? | 00:37 |
| kn100 | KaOSoFt, because the personalised bits are integration with gnome and the such | 00:37 |
| mertle | Kangarooo: line 367 .xsessoinerrors- was this around the time? | 00:40 |
| KaOSoFt | kn100- Hmm, but I tried Firefox 3.6 independently and it seemed to work fine. What kind of features does integration offer? | 00:41 |
| subone | How do i allow running as another user without requiring a password in the sudoers file? I've got: "%www-data ALL=(subone) NOPASSWD: /home/subone/scripts/*.sh" but i got an error... | 00:41 |
| Kangarooo | mertle: it was before started pidgin 1min so by my time it was as i see when i went in pidgin 2:11 so 1 min earlier 2:10 | 00:41 |
| Kangarooo | mertle: line 367 <created-at type="datetime">2010-04-02T10:15:30Z</created-at> thats a wacoopa menu code | 00:42 |
| shockrates | hey | 00:43 |
| shockrates | is compiz heavy? i have a low spec pc | 00:43 |
| mertle | Kangarooo: doesn't show much more than that - try to recreate it - if you can't it prob isn't a bug | 00:43 |
| hmw | shockrates: not really, it runs very nicely on my NVidia with 32MB | 00:43 |
| hmw | you shouln't use certain plugins though... 3D-WIndows for example needs a bit more power | 00:44 |
| shockrates | hmw, does it have any performance deference compared to metacity? | 00:44 |
| coz_ | shockrates, compiz itself really doenst use much of the resources | 00:44 |
| mertle | shockrates: it's more if the vid card can have the necessaries running | 00:44 |
| hmw | shockrates: you won't feel a big difference, but there is one. Try it. | 00:44 |
| coz_ | shockrates, it is going to depend greatly on the video driver more than anything else | 00:44 |
| shockrates | i am using nvidia driver for fx 5200 card | 00:44 |
| shockrates | and i have 512sdram | 00:45 |
| hmw | shockrates: did you read, what I told you? *g* it runs nicely on a 32 MB Card !! | 00:45 |
| coz_ | shockrates, ok the fx5xxx series should work fairly well with compiz... | 00:45 |
| shockrates | ok then | 00:45 |
| hmw | heheh | 00:45 |
| tables | hey all | 00:46 |
| shockrates | oh btw how can i change gdm background | 00:46 |
| shockrates | there was a command i think | 00:46 |
| Kangarooo | mertle: yes thats why i want to report it. its maybe even a security bug couse computer doing what i havend told him to do. and i cant recreate couse i was just reading in arora and many tabs open and didnt touch anything and now also i reopened all tabs and liferea reader was open and now its also open. maybe liferea reader was refreshing himself. but how its possible to auto open tty1? | 00:46 |
| tables | can someone help me with a script | 00:46 |
| hmw | tables: depends | 00:47 |
| tables | hmw, can I pm you | 00:47 |
| hmw | tell me, what you want first | 00:47 |
| mertle | Kangarooo: to report a bug you need to know what went wrong - ctrl+alt+f1 doesn't do anything? | 00:47 |
| Kangarooo | mertle: there was another log file witch had some timestamps. what was that? | 00:47 |
| mertle | Kangarooo: syslog is one | 00:48 |
| Kangarooo | mertle: ctrl+alt+f1-7 all works | 00:48 |
| tables | i'm trying to rar folders, then upload the rars via ftp, then delete the rars and the folders | 00:48 |
| Kangarooo | mertle: all are clear. | 00:48 |
| mertle | Kangarooo: ctrl+alt+f1 is tty1 - "but how its possible to auto open tty1?" - what do you mean? | 00:48 |
| Kangarooo | mertle: if x window system would crash then it should show terminal on all screen and not open tty1 | 00:49 |
| Kangarooo | mertle: how its possible that on crash tty1 was opened? only if virus programm installed witch made that command and i have only installed from apt-get in this computer | 00:51 |
| mertle | Kangarooo: I don't know what you mean - tty1 is a terminal on the whole screen | 00:51 |
| tm0 | Bonjour all, i am having quite the issue. I cannot unistall a program. Sudo apt-get remove won't do it :/ | 00:51 |
| shockrates | do i need to install the full compiz or just the gtk packages? | 00:51 |
| shockrates | gtk-based packaes | 00:51 |
| soreau | shockrates: compiz is already installed by default in ubuntu | 00:51 |
| mertle | Kangarooo: nope - if a prog crashed and took out X you would end at a tty till gdm restarted X | 00:51 |
| shockrates | the kde based packages are only for kde? | 00:52 |
| shockrates | or can be used here too? | 00:52 |
| Kangarooo | mertle: hmmz ah yes couse it auto went out of tty6. ok then if that is correct then something wrong went with logging out. then logging out was somehow auto opening. why gdm while restarting x also loging out happened? automatically? | 00:54 |
| Kangarooo | mertle: so it shouldnt log out. | 00:54 |
| mertle | Kangarooo: prob killed your session somehow - hard to say since you don't know what caused it | 00:56 |
| passingby123 | friends i have just installed 9.10 onto a pen drive using 'USB startup disk creator' but it seems its not a full install, its juts a live USB now, albeit with ability to save files. am i correct? is this the best way to have ubuntu on a pen drive?\ | 00:58 |
| Kangarooo | mertle: well if i would make bug report with ubuntu-bug would all log files be uploaded to bug report? if not all then i can upload them manually only whit what package should i add as first possible what coused or is involved? soo tty did all corect. opened when x crashed. so x crashed then whats packagename of x window system? | 00:59 |

| Kangarooo | mertle: maybe some bigger process crashed? witch is making run x and makes user still be logged in? | 01:01 |
| mertle | Kangarooo: from what you told me you really can't say what there is a bug in - I think you need to know that - have a look at ubuntu-bugs for a howto first | 01:01 |

| Kangarooo | mertle: i dont think that is normal couse i didnt make anything crash. computer did it by itself. on windows its understandable that virus coused something. all programms working. on linux some code just hasnt been finished or a code has written to do that what it did. so it is a bug or wishlist to remove this functionality to crash. wheres is that syslog? syslog: /usr/include/syslog.h ? | 01:07 |
| doctorZeus | I loaded 9.1 last weekend and ~250 updates yesterday and since that time, sound in firefox has stopped working | 01:07 |
| mertle | Kangarooo: /var/log is where all the logs are | 01:07 |
| doctorZeus | sound worked fine when I first installed and right up until i loaded the updated..I'm googling around now, nothing definitive so far, just wondering if this was a known issue and/or an easy fix | 01:08 |
| hiexpo | doctorZeus, but it works elsewhere? | 01:10 |
| doctorZeus | hiexpo sorry for excluding that, yes, it works fine in movie player, at login, etc | 01:11 |
| hiexpo | doctorZeus, than it is a firefox issue a pluggin did not reinstall | 01:11 |
| doctorZeus | of course I have checked volume everything I can think, from the volume control in top right, volume control in the browser window, went through system/sound and made sure nothing was muted | 01:12 |

| THE_GFR|WORK | hey everyone I upgraded to 9.10 but when I start the screen has to scroll, when I reset the screen resolution its fine until I restart any way to fix this? | 01:19 |
| mertle | Kangarooo: there you go - that is gnome-session - then after is gdm - which would be you logging in - doesn't tell me what caused it tho | 01:20 |
| ZykoticK9 | THE_GFR|WORK, are you using nvidia? | 01:20 |
| THE_GFR|WORK | ZykoticK9: yes GeForce 7600 | 01:20 |
| ZykoticK9 | THE_GFR|WORK, do you have anything special in your current xorg.conf? | 01:21 |
| THE_GFR|WORK | ZykoticK9: not that I know of | 01:21 |
| mertle | Kangarooo: line 7 - console-kit-daemon[651]: GLib-GObject-WARNING: - could have something to do with it | 01:21 |
| ZykoticK9 | THE_GFR|WORK, in a terminal do "sudo nvidia-xconfig" then run "gksu nvidia-settings" and select the option to safe to xorg, then after reboot the settings should stick | 01:22 |
| Kangarooo | mertle: ah i just checked programms. actually i have already removed that metacity. | 01:22 |

All my friends told me ubuntu was kool asked them what is it they said like windows so i said how can i get it but never investigated what it was not knowing or having a clue what linux is /// the closest thing to a computer i knew was windows i want to do something i click a little icon thingy and it works well i come here and just do not understand why i can not make anything work it must be broke / what is apt what is a sh | 01:23 |

| windows_xp_user | . | 01:25 |

| ZykoticK9 | THE_GFR|WORK, you might if you have X setup over SSH - but if you're getting the error, you'll need to wait till you get home i guess - did you start your ssh session with "ssh -X COMPUTER"? | 01:26 |

| THE_GFR|WORK | no I did not ZykoticK9 basically when I try to save the config with the nvidia settings panel it says it can't remove the old xorg.conf.backup file | 01:28 |
| Sogorukuhn | or I need a browser with SOCKS5 + Auth support | 01:28 |
| colorlessprism | hiexpo, try a LiveCD, a test drive if you will. its not broken, and its not windows | 01:28 |
| mertle | Kangarooo: iirc = if I recall correctly :) | 01:28 |
| Kangarooo | ah ok | 01:28 |

| Kangarooo | im learning some thouse abr. ftw :) | 01:29 |
| ZykoticK9 | THE_GFR|WORK, you have to manually go into the /etc/X11 folder and move the current xorg.conf to a backup name like xorg.conf.orig then re-run the "sudo nvidia-xconfig" | 01:29 |

| colorlessprism | anyone know how to get the pid of a program running buggy in GUI and kill by terminal? | 01:38 |

| ZykoticK9 | colorlessprism, "ps aux" to find the PID then "kill PID#" or "kill -9 PID#" if it's really in bad shap | 01:38 |
| ZykoticK9 | s/shap/shape | 01:39 |
| colorlessprism | hiexpo, google is a great help...sometimes wording makes it hard though | 01:39 |

| asfd | After doing a mass update in ubuntu (500 updates) my mouse is no longer working. | 02:31 |
| gdory | im asking a question here | 02:31 |
| RFXCasey | My wireless wasn't showing up so I followed a thread that said to go into nm-system-settings.conf and change where it said "managed=" to true, the in console do a "sudo killall nm-system-settings" and then do a "sudo nm-system settings". Now my wired connection isn't showing up either. I tried changing "managed=" back to false but both my wired and wireless connection are still broken. | 02:31 |
| asfd | Any idea? | 02:31 |
| asfd | My bluetooth mouse/keyboard stopped working after an Ubuntu update, any idea what might cause this? | 02:31 |
| gdory | i want to know why ubuntu devs made 9.04+ rape HD's when testing the live cd | 02:31 |
| Anon154 | where is the 18 and older chat room | 02:32 |
| gdory | a live cd needs no disks, should not touch any disks other than those needed | 02:32 |
| asfd | Anon154: /list *18* or /list *adult* | 02:32 |
| psusi | gdory, no, you're ranting and spouting bs... "what is it changing on my hd" would be a question, one which we were trying to help you answer | 02:32 |
| sassinoogi | >:oNobody is of any help in here... | 02:32 |
| hmw | RFXCasey: restarting the network and/or NetworkManager might help. sudo /etc/init.d/network restart (might be networking restart) and /etc/init.d/NetworkManager restart | 02:32 |
| gdory | psusi, no | 02:32 |
| gdory | nothing like that | 02:32 |
| gmonnie | need help, have a logitech quickcam, having trouble getting it to work with 9.10 | 02:32 |
| elky | gdory, can you find another word to use that doesn't trivialise that particular assault. | 02:32 |
| gdory | why is it CHANGING data period | 02:32 |

| asfd | My bluetooth mouse/keyboard stopped working after an Ubuntu update, any idea what might cause this? | 02:33 |
| gdory | hiexpo, im a BSD user | 02:33 |
| Anon154 | hi deathcrawler | 02:33 |
| gdory | i expect a system to do as intended, not what it feels | 02:33 |
| psusi | gdory, the most likely answer to that is either because it found a swap partition, or because you asked it to mount the filesystems | 02:33 |
| elky | Anon154, You're on the wrong network. This as a network for Free Software discussions. | 02:33 |
| gdory | and the fact that ubuntu devs are allowing this to happen is a disgust to the OSS community | 02:33 |
| gdory | psusi, this disk has two paritions | 02:33 |
| chief | i totally agree with it | 02:33 |
| asfd | My bluetooth mouse/keyboard stopped working after an Ubuntu update, any idea what might cause this? How can I get them to work again? | 02:33 |
| gdory | one vfat, one ext2fs | 02:33 |
| gdory | no swap, nothing | 02:34 |
| switch10_ | asfd: does bluetooth work on an older kernel? | 02:34 |
| asfd | no | 02:34 |
| asfd | not even in recovery mode | 02:34 |
| gdory | it manipulated data on ALL partitions | 02:34 |
| gdory | even in < 1024 | 02:34 |
| gdory | why | 02:34 |
| gdory | ? | 02:34 |
| chief | i have no swap which means nothing???? | 02:34 |
| psusi | gdory, and was the ext2fs cleanly unmounted? you checked the two partitions independently? | 02:34 |
| gdory | ubuntu's T&C's do not state it will do this | 02:34 |
| gdory | psusi, yes it was | 02:34 |
| gmonnie | can anybody help me out, trying to get my logitech quickcam to work with ubuntu 9.10, | 02:34 |
| gdory | in any case | 02:34 |
| gdory | why would a "live cd" test disks | 02:35 |
| elky | !enter | 02:35 |
| switch10_ | asfd: I imagine the bluetooth package failed somehow during the update. | 02:35 |
| gdory | that is NOT it's purpose | 02:35 |
| ubottu | Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 02:35 |
| gdory | the live cd is to "TEST" ubuntu | 02:35 |
| gdory | not to rape your media | 02:35 |
| elky | gdory, stop using that word. | 02:35 |
| gdory | test or rape | 02:35 |
| switch10_ | asfd: do you have access to the system using another mouse/keyboard? | 02:35 |
| elky | gdory, the latter. | 02:35 |
| gdory | because in any case, ubuntu is doing the latter with the prior | 02:35 |
| gdory | im sorry | 02:35 |
| Kangarooo | anyone knows why testdisk not copying files(recovering) to folder i selected? | 02:36 |
| psusi | gdory, one guess would be that it was not cleanly unmounted so it fscked it | 02:36 |
| gdory | but you screwed up ubuntu devs | 02:36 |
| lostson | how sad is it he updates his machine and the mouse and keyboard stop working complete ubuntu #fail | 02:36 |
| gdory | you have made me hate linux even more | 02:36 |
| gdory | psusi, besides the point | 02:36 |
| chief | when will the authentic version be issued??in April?? | 02:36 |
| chief | i mean 10 | 02:36 |
| elky | gdory, I'm not an ubuntu dev. chastising people here, who are volunteer support givers, isn't going to help any | 02:36 |
| gdory | a live CDROM should NOT be touching any media other than it's own. period.! | 02:36 |
| hmw | chief: the version number is a date (!) | 02:36 |
| * psusi stops feeding the troll | 02:36 | |
| bsmith093 | this worked for me just add i8042.reset to the grub menulst file | 02:36 |
| asfd | switch10_: not currently :( | 02:36 |
| gdory | elky, my point is to the devs | 02:36 |
| asfd | is there any workaround | 02:37 |
| elky | gdory, then raise it on the devel lists or in the -devel channel. chastising volunteer support folk isn't helping. | 02:37 |
| chief | what?? | 02:37 |
| gdory | elky, i would have though this channel be filled with devs | 02:37 |
| gdory | thought rather | 02:37 |
| elky | gdory, why? it's the /support/ channel. | 02:37 |

| steven_t | why isnt it just git, red2kic? | 02:43 |
| hmw | Guest67619: start the game from the terminal... cd into the directory where the .exe file is and start it with wine SOME.EXE - this will get you some debug output - perhaps you get lucky and find out, what is going on | 02:43 |

| hexdump_ | A complex program also | 02:53 |
| hmw | hexdump_: a really good program is mencoder, but you have to use it via command line and type in kilobytes-sized commands before it starts doing something (ok, its not really kilobytes) | 02:54 |
| red2kic | hexdump_: Ogmrip? Handbrake? It is just few examples. | 02:54 |
| hexdump_ | I'll look it up, but something where I can edit the fps, bitrate audio compression and frequency and such | 02:54 |
| hmw | hexdump_: mencoder does it all, it's just hard to use | 02:54 |
| gmonnie | this is making me mad | 02:56 |
| hexdump_ | hmw: I used flashmpeg, smart ripper, vobdec, and something else. maybe there is a custom packages somewhere. I'll roam around. There is a site I used years back called doom9 but I'm not sure if it's still around. | 02:56 |
| hexdump_ | sorry flaskmpeg | 02:56 |
| msmooth | doom9 is still around | 02:56 |

| Lanlost | Hey, if I ls -l and see a group.. how do I see whos IN a particular group, users wis | 03:52 |
| BlackDalek | chelz, that thread looks unrelated. This printer was working fine until this morning and now it won't print. Nothing has changed, nothing has been updated/uninstalled etc. I don' | 03:52 |
| BlackDalek | don't understand it. | 03:52 |
| switch10_ | RFXCasey_: sudo apt-get purge network-manager-gnome && sudo apt-get install network-manager-gnome | 03:52 |
| daedrie | I'm relatively new to Ubuntu 9.10 and I've encountered a major problem. I recently installed Emerald and I've tried and tried to uninstall it to no avail. I also noticed that since I installed it, sudo-apt get install mind you, I've been unable to open .deb files, upgrade and install security updates, and music, image, video, etc. files aren't recognized. Any help on the matter? | 03:52 |
| B3rz3rk3r | anyone got any tips on running Ubuntu headless? | 03:52 |
| iskari | dsnyders, yes, thats why its not a major issue, it will fix it self somehow, im not the only one with one of these nettys | 03:52 |
| lastelement0 | iskari, thanks but i already know how to install ubuntu. im looking for the cleanest way of going about it while maintaining easy access to windows 7 | 03:52 |
| RFXCasey_ | switch10_:does my wired connection have to be on first? | 03:52 |
| switch10_ | RFXCasey_: I have no idea if that will even help. | 03:53 |
| chelz | lastelement0: read the installation guide https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GraphicalInstall then make sure you partition properly. grub will handle booting. | 03:53 |
| pepper_haze | Does anyone know how to get a webcam to work on Ubuntu 9.10 with websites? | 03:53 |
| Nanchu | (bluetooth)Why is my main.conf has the following line: Name = %h-%d ....when i run hciconfig -a i get Name: 'MiDispBl' | 03:53 |
| chelz | lastelement0: if you have dualbooted linux and windows before you'll know how you can choose between windows and linux on boot | 03:53 |
| switch10_ | RFXCasey_: yeah don't worry about the reinstall. What make and model is the wireless card? | 03:53 |
| iskari | lastelement0, well, grub detects win 7 and just adds it to a list when you boot your computer so you can choose if you want linux or windows | 03:53 |
| chelz | BlackDalek: you could try deleting it and readding it. are you on 9.10 karmic? | 03:54 |
| lastelement0 | chelz iskari, yes i have dualbooted in the past, just using one hard drive. not two :) | 03:54 |
| chelz | B3rz3rk3r: just a simple install of ubuntu server is how to do that. there's a lot of documentation on doing different things with ubuntu server on the wiki. | 03:54 |
| BlackDalek | chelz yes, karmic. I will try deleting/adding | 03:54 |
| lastelement0 | chelz iskari, so wasnt sure if it would be better to unplug my windows 7 drive while installing ubuntu | 03:54 |
| chelz | lastelement0: grub will handle that just fine as part of a normal install. :) | 03:54 |
| RFXCasey_ | switch10_:ok done | 03:55 |
| chelz | lastelement0: no, actually it's quite necessary to leave it plugged in so the installer can detect it and set grub up to allow you to boot to it. (if you want to boot to it) | 03:55 |
| B3rz3rk3r | chelz, i need X though, so i ahve installed regular Ubuntu and will just install the packages i need | 03:55 |
| pepper_haze | does anyone here know how to get a webcam to work with a web site on ubuntu 9.10 | 03:55 |
| dsnyders | Hi all! Where/how do I set up my system so that the time gets set via a time server? | 03:55 |
| switch10_ | RFXCasey_: what make and model is the wireless card? | 03:55 |
| B3rz3rk3r | chelz, so how do i make ubuntu boot and autologin without a keyboard or monitor? | 03:55 |
| lastelement0 | chelz, well my other thought was have it in a way where i have to select the ubuntu drive from the boot menu on startup | 03:56 |
| Nanchu | My main.conf has the following line: Name = %h-%d ....when i run hciconfig -a i get Name: 'MiDispBl' | 03:56 |
| chelz | B3rz3rk3r: how do you plan to remotely connect to the box? | 03:56 |
| Cyber_Akuma | chelz: thanks, but im trying to install grub on a partition, not on the mbr, I plan to chainload it | 03:56 |
| lastelement0 | chelz, that way it would default to windows 7 drive unless i forced a boot from the ubuntu one | 03:56 |
| B3rz3rk3r | chelz, il be using freenx, ssh and vnc | 03:56 |
| Nanchu | does any body know why? | 03:56 |
| chelz | lastelement0: you can do that if you want to, but grub has worked fine with multiple drives for years | 03:56 |
| dsnyders | B3rz3rk3r, You don't need to have the machine autologin. | 03:57 |
| Hexxeh | Hey, is there a specific channel for the Netbook Remix? | 03:57 |
| B3rz3rk3r | dsnyders, i thought that too, but some services wont start until its logged in | 03:57 |
| lastelement0 | chelz, yeah ill just have to look into grub more so i can get it set up how i want. also what is the benefits to chainloading? | 03:57 |
| RFXCasey_ | switch10_: I did a networking restart and got * reconfiguring network interfaces... Warning: ifup -a is disabled in favour of NetworkManager. Set ifupdown:managed=false in /etc/NetworkManager/nm-system-settings.conf | 03:58 |
| hmw | daedrie: hmm... I won't be able to help you. If it was my machine, I'd wipe the partition and get my backup (or reinstall). Investigate "partimage" - very useful tool, especially if you want to experiment. (Certain packages are hard to uninstall, like KDE) | 03:58 |
| ZykoticK9 | Hexxeh, no NBR channel i'm afraid - best to ask your question here | 03:58 |
| Hexxeh | ZykoticK9: Righto | 03:58 |
| chelz | lastelement0: chainloading is the only way to boot certain OSes, with multiple linuxes it's a way to have separate boot manager (usually grub) menus | 03:58 |
| iskari | Hexxeh, no clue, but let me know what you find, im on the netbook thingy too, and i love it =) | 03:58 |
| lastelement0 | chelz, ah okay. thanks | 03:59 |
| Hexxeh | Well, just installed netbook remix, having a minor problem. When I boot it up, I get a text-mode terminal login, and I have to login manually and type startx, and then it works | 03:59 |
| dsnyders | B3rz3rk3r, What services don't start? | 03:59 |
| switch10_ | RFXCasey_: yes, you are using NM. | 03:59 |
| Hexxeh | It should obviously do this automatically, where's the file that should do this? | 03:59 |
| chelz | Cyber_Akuma: i haven't done this but at least in a similar way to how one would install to a partition with grub1, installing to a partition with grub2 might be like this: "grub-install /dev/sda1" | 03:59 |
| iskari | Hexxeh, apt-get install gdm/kdm/xdm your choice | 03:59 |
| Klitchzko | hi | 03:59 |
| chelz | !hi | Klitchzko | 04:00 |
| ubottu | Klitchzko: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines . Enjoy your stay! | 04:00 |
| B3rz3rk3r | dsnyders, i think freenx server and node dont start until someone has logged in | 04:00 |
| Hexxeh | iskari: Surely it's installed by default though? I get one of those if I click switch user after starting X | 04:00 |
| Klitchzko | where can i find the driver for broadcom wireless device? | 04:00 |
| chelz | Cyber_Akuma: you might try specifying the partition number, i think it might work. i'm not readily finding any guides on installing grub2 specifically to a partition tho | 04:00 |
| iskari | Hexxeh, yes, but whats the harm in trying? =) | 04:00 |
| switch10_ | RFXCasey_: I have to go to work, but my suggestion is to do a google search for the make and model of your wireless card, and see how to get it working.. | 04:00 |
| Hexxeh | iskari: Okay, any idea which the default one is? | 04:00 |
| Da-M-E-M-0 | Can anyone help me with ubuntu? | 04:00 |
| chelz | B3rz3rk3r: just read the documentation on those | 04:00 |
| RFXCasey_ | ok thanks | 04:00 |
| pepper_haze | does anyone know how to get a webcam to work with flash in ubuntu 9.10 | 04:00 |
| iskari | Hexxeh, default is GDM | 04:00 |
| BlackDalek | chelz - deleting/adding the printer failed | 04:00 |
| Da-M-E-M-0 | i just installed ubuntu | 04:00 |
| RFXCasey_ | switch10_:thanks | 04:00 |
| chelz | !freenx | B3rz3rk3r | 04:01 |
| ubottu | B3rz3rk3r: FreeNX is advanced remote desktop technology. For more information and install instructions, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeNX | 04:01 |
| Hexxeh | I'll give it a go, cheers iskari :) | 04:01 |
| iskari | Hexxeh, oh sh*t forgot, lowercaps :P | 04:01 |
| Hexxeh | Whattt | 04:01 |
| Hexxeh | Just rebooted and this time it loaded :/ | 04:01 |
| Hexxeh | It seems totally hit and miss | 04:01 |
| Da-M-E-M-0 | how do i start ubuntu? | 04:01 |
| Da-M-E-M-0 | i just clicked on ubuntu at start when my pc rebooted | 04:01 |
| chelz | dsnyders: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuTime | 04:01 |
| === Klitchzko is now known as desynch | ||
| Da-M-E-M-0 | and then it shows me a cmd list | 04:01 |
| Hexxeh | Thing is, this is a MID, no physical keyboard so I can't start X without plugging a hub and keyboard in | 04:02 |
| progre55 | hi people! how do you access ext4 from windows 7? | 04:02 |
| pecos | hi all have you some tips chacks to force cups starting on lucid i have some issue to autostart it might be rc.local is a good place? | 04:02 |
| desynch | where can i find the driver for broadcom wireless device? | 04:02 |
| hmw | progre55: you don't. :( you could create a network share though | 04:02 |
| B3rz3rk3r | thx chelz, il have a more in depth read of that now | 04:02 |
| Da-M-E-M-0 | anyone there? | 04:02 |
| skypce_ | i am with ubuntu 10 beta, i have a gma 3150 and i download and compiled the 2d drivers , but dont have xorg.conf, how can i install t | 04:02 |
| hmw | progre55: in case, you have a second computer, of course | 04:02 |
| chelz | BlackDalek: is there anything that changed recently? anything at all? maybe even installing an update. you might try checking logs when trying to print | 04:02 |
| progre55 | hmw: what do you mean a network share? | 04:02 |
| progre55 | hmw: oh, not really =) I have them as dual-boot | 04:03 |
| BlackDalek | chelz.. nothing. | 04:03 |
| chelz | skypce_: lucid support is in #ubuntu+1 but xorg.conf files aren't needed starting with i think ubuntu 9.04. the only time one would be needed is with some nvidia drivers. | 04:03 |
| BlackDalek | I got a mac. I have to print from that instead. I don't have time to work this out. | 04:03 |
| chelz | BlackDalek: no interesting syslog /var/log/messages or dmesg output? | 04:03 |
| * maginot is bored | 04:04 | |
| hmw | progre55: then you are ... in trouble. Perhaps you can copy the data from within Ubuntu to the windows partition? Perhaps resizing partitions and create an intermediate "sharing" NTFS partition? (utilizing live cd + gparted) | 04:04 |
| Da-M-E-M-0 | maginot | 04:04 |
| * maginot is still bored | 04:04 | |
| Nanchu | Does any body knows why my changes from main.conf (bluetooth) doesn't take effect after booting up? | 04:04 |

| maginot | Da-M-E-M-0, I don't care if you tried to install or if you think you installed correctly, the best thing you should do now, is just try again and see if after repeating the process the same error will happen. The installation don't took more them 1 hour, is less then what you gone loose trying to fix any boot problem | 04:11 |

| progre55 | Da-M-E-M-0: it is not supposed say cmd version 1.5.. the grub menu is supposed to show you a list of images and loaders, and usually the first one should be the correct ubuntu image, and you just click enter on it and it starts | 04:14 |
| chelz | today: run that command i gave you then open up that samba config and redo your settings | 04:14 |
| Da-M-E-M-0 | Progre55 i will look right now what its saying. cant i just do like a command '' start '' and then ubuntu will start? | 04:15 |
| chelz | Da-M-E-M-0: the same way you started vista from that menu is how you start ubuntu | 04:15 |
| chelz | Da-M-E-M-0: if that is not starting ubuntu then it means there is something wrong with your ubuntu install | 04:15 |

| Froadac | hey guys | 04:20 |
| Froadac | ubuntu is so ftw :) | 04:20 |
| Jester05 | hey guys, an of you developers? | 04:20 |
| chelz | pepper_haze: do you have the latest flash player? or are you on a 64bit install without the 64bit flash player? | 04:20 |
| chelz | !ask | Jester05 | 04:20 |
| ubottu | Jester05: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 04:20 |
| pepper_haze | I am using a 32 bit install | 04:20 |
| Bezerk-BR | I am a developer | 04:21 |
| Jester05 | I'm in the process of creating a program to "tether" the droid to linux and need some input... when I stop the program I have it executing killall openvpn | 04:21 |
| today | i really dont understand chelz, i stop Samba,and may be i reconfig smb.conf chelz? | 04:22 |
| === pepee_ is now known as pepee | ||
| kitche | Jester05 why rewrite the wheel? | 04:23 |
| pepper_haze | It says no webcam detected when I click on play | 04:23 |
| Da-M-E-M-0 | Ok it said : GNU GRUB Version 1.97`beta [Minimal BASH-like like editing is supported. and then it showed a ''cmd'' called sh:grub> | 04:23 |
| pepper_haze | I just noticed there is a play button | 04:23 |
| pepper_haze | when I click on play, it says no webcam detected | 04:23 |
| Jester05 | kitche, currently I couldn't find a program that'd do it all.. eventually I'm going to develop a gui for it and also try to make a tray item for it | 04:24 |
| today | well well chelz is busyyyyy now? | 04:24 |
| sasayins | how to know the services running in background? | 04:24 |

| nishanth | does any one know how to set acpi to off? | 04:25 |
| m0p0 | li all | 04:25 |
| m0p0 | hi* | 04:25 |
| today | Okay, i read now | 04:25 |
| chelz | Da-M-E-M-0: if you can somehow pastebin a picture of what your screen displays after you select ubuntu in Grub i might be able to make sense of it | 04:25 |
| Jester05 | I've got a few different scripts I run for it as is but my "/etc/init.d/droidlink stop" just flat out kills openvpn, I don't like just killing the entire openvpn in case some users are sing that program for other things | 04:25 |
| Bezerk-BR | use the comand "ps aux" sasayins | 04:25 |
| m0p0 | main language of this channel is English? | 04:25 |
| sasayins | thanks a lot. | 04:25 |
| hmw | m0p0: only language in this channel is english. Are you looking for an Ubuntu support channel in another language? | 04:26 |
| progre55 | Da-M-E-M-0: cont you even have a camera on your cellphone? | 04:26 |
| chelz | pepper_haze: is your webcam integrated into your computer or is it separate? | 04:26 |
| today | SWAT is better than samba gui chelz? | 04:26 |
| Jester05 | but to the same token.. people are probably not going to have a vpn setup when they're connecting via broadband tether anyway | 04:26 |
| maginot | m0p0, yes | 04:26 |
| pepper_haze | chelz, I know what the promblem is, I wasn't hitting play | 04:27 |
| chelz | today: it's something to try since the samba gui isn't | 04:27 |
| chelz | today: moving your smb.conf and running the samba gui might regenerate a new file though. which i advise trying. | 04:27 |
| chelz | pepper_haze: ah, alright :) | 04:27 |
| pepper_haze | But I have anouther promblem now, my ubuntu, will only allow one device to be used by a program at a time | 04:27 |
| pepper_haze | I can use a device with mutiple programs, like I can't get sound with multiple programs, or use my web cam with multiple programs | 04:28 |
| Da-M-E-M-0 | chelz im googling the problem. i saw many people having probs with it. it says something with the grub is defect | 04:28 |
| chelz | m0p0: there is a russian irc channel if you know russian | 04:28 |
| Froadac | Amarok will not add music to the library from an external USB drive, how can I make it do so? | 04:28 |
| m0p0 | peoples, i have a trouble - VirtualBox don't cach multimedia hotkeys. what should i doing that resolve this trouble? (sorry for bad English) | 04:28 |
| maginot | m0p0, #virtualbox | 04:28 |
| pepper_haze | how do I change this, beacuse flash video camera player takes a pic of the web cam before it starts playing and won't use the web cam beacuse it has taken that pic | 04:28 |
| m0p0 | thanks | 04:29 |
| chelz | pepper_haze: did you do a new install of 9.10 or did you upgrade? | 04:29 |
| pepper_haze | I did a new install | 04:29 |
| chelz | pepper_haze: did you ever install or change sound settings related to OSS or ALSA? | 04:30 |
| pepper_haze | no | 04:30 |
| pepper_haze | I don't think so | 04:30 |
| albertolempira | hey guys, plasma freezes from time to time while i'm working around with kubuntu, sometimes occurs when i'm not in the range of a wifi hotspot, it might be the network manager? it's really annoying when i'm doing important stuff cause i have to wait 'till it comes back, any suggestion on this? thanks in advance | 04:33 |
| huesos | hola | 04:33 |
| chelz | pepper_haze: you might try upgrading your flash player | 04:33 |
| maginot | ubottu, es | huesos | 04:33 |

| costre | After a system update, the computer reaches graphics mode, displayes the login background, but stops. The mouse and keyboard is responsive, but the harddrive light is on constantly. I can't login on another prompt, only enter username, then nothing. Is it some heavy updating procedure going on in the background, or does it seem something is fubar? | 04:33 |
| w00tz | hello, is there a way to call a window to whatever desktop you're on? for example, i have an emacs window open and running on desktop #1, is there a way to assign it a hotkey such that the emacs window shows up when i hit an assigned key shortcut? if there are none, i can probably code something that would do it. | 04:33 |
| chelz | albertolempira: /join #kubuntu | 04:34 |
| hmw | w00tz: Compiz' plugin Scale can do it (in conjunction with then Scale-Addons plugin) - i think it is fetch window | 04:34 |
| chelz | costre: leave it for at least 30min to an hour depending on how old the computer is. if it still hangs you might need to boot to Recovery Mode and do a fix | 04:34 |
| Da-M-E-M-0 | chelz message : | 04:35 |
| Da-M-E-M-0 | GNU GRUB version 1.97~beta4 | 04:35 |
| Da-M-E-M-0 | Minimal BASH-likeline editing is supported. For the first word TAB lists possible command completions. | 04:35 |
| Da-M-E-M-0 | Anywhere else TAB lists possible device/file completions. | 04:35 |
| FloodBot2 | Da-M-E-M-0: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 04:35 |
| albertolempira | chelz, i did that, but sometimes i get help on #ubuntu faster than in the kubuntu channel | 04:35 |
| w00tz | hmw: let me check it out | 04:35 |
| today | chelz: i just want to fix error "dont run system-config-samba" , why you show me SAWT app ? | 04:35 |
| chelz | albertolempira: that probably would work best with stuff installed in both ubuntu and kubuntu. plasma is not installed by default in ubuntu though. | 04:35 |
| hmw | w00tz: well... it can do something similar in fact - you can get all windows sized down and click one to go to that window/workspace - in this overview, you can make it fetch the clicked window | 04:35 |
| hmw | w00tz: you need CCSM for that: sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager | 04:36 |
| maginot | Da-M-E-M-0, the time you are trying to solve this you could have already reinstalled ubuntu | 04:36 |
| chelz | today: the issue you have is because something is wrong with your smb.conf. swat might fix your smb.conf or you can rename your smb.conf and hopefully Samba GUI will make a new one. | 04:36 |
| w00tz | hmw yeah that's somethign smilar to mac's expose, but it's not exactly what i want | 04:36 |
| hmw | w00tz: i know and i dont know another way. | 04:36 |
| today | thanks Chelz, i see your good idea | 04:37 |
| w00tz | hmw: no problem. have you tried using Guake? The drop down console? | 04:37 |
| hmw | w00tz: wut? dropdown console? something like a desklet/panel applet? | 04:37 |
| maginot | w00tz, wow... I think was that app I was trying to find a long time ago but could remember its name | 04:37 |
| w00tz | hmw: thanks for the suggestion though ;) | 04:37 |
| w00tz | hmw: no, it loads a console on boot and basically listens for the assigned keystroke | 04:38 |
| w00tz | hmw: when you hit, it comes down and transparently lays over your windows providing you a tab-enabled terminal | 04:38 |
| today | at VietNa, hasnt Repository so that install App very slow | 04:38 |
| Out_Cold | hmw, yukiaki or something along those lines is also a drop down console activated with I think F12 | 04:38 |
| hmw | w00tz: i see - like in some games | 04:38 |
| llutz | Out_Cold: yakuake | 04:38 |
| Out_Cold | llutz, yes | 04:38 |
| Out_Cold | was close :p | 04:39 |
| w00tz | hmw: you can launch screen on it and what not, it's very convenient for development, it's pretty much one of the best apps out there ;) yes, Yakuake and Visor (for MacOSX) are similar. It's incredibl. | 04:39 |
| w00tz | incredible.* | 04:39 |
| hmw | w00tz: may I pm you? | 04:39 |
| w00tz | hmw: sure ;) | 04:39 |
| maginot | w00tz, what is the shortcut for guake ? | 04:39 |
| llutz | F12 | 04:39 |
| w00tz | It's F12 by default, but I set it to Alt+~ | 04:39 |
| maginot | nice... | 04:39 |
| * maginot finally is not so bored =D | 04:40 | |
| chelz | Da-M-E-M-0: even when you try to boot to the "(Recovery Mode)" one? | 04:40 |
| chelz | w00tz: yeah i use guake for that but sometimes it feels a bit heavy. there seem to be a few alternatives to it. | 04:41 |

| scunizi | llutz: ah :( that's right | 04:45 |
| chelz | Da-M-E-M-0: well i'm not sure why grub is doing that, but this might fix it: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2#Recover%20Grub%202%20via%20LiveCD | 04:46 |
| arand | llutz: scunizi no that's grub-legacy | 04:46 |

| Guest97866 | hi, I'm new to Ubuntu. I installed today. But I don;t know how to install the driver. I downloaded the package. Its a zip file. Can any one tell me please how to install the driver. | 04:46 |
| arand | Da-M-E-M-0: is this a Wubi install? | 04:47 |
| crivera | maybe i'm not using the right network interface.. | 04:47 |
| ratdog | hello all | 04:47 |
| scunizi | crivera: wireshark is very capable.. but a pain to learn.. there's lots of docs on it.. unfortunately I'm no expert with it. | 04:47 |
| crivera | thanks anyway | 04:47 |
| ratdog | demultiplexer problems......... | 04:47 |
| crivera | will definitely dig into it | 04:47 |
| chelz | arand: good question | 04:47 |
| ratdog | with kaffine' | 04:47 |
| llutz | arand: grub2 doesn't use "hdX,Y" notation anymore? | 04:47 |
| arand | Guest97866: What driver, what is inside the zip file if you extract it? | 04:47 |
| Guest97866 | arand: Yes I extracted. | 04:48 |
| arand | llutz: follows sda# notiation for second number | 04:48 |
| chelz | Guest97866: what is the brand and model number of the device you need the driver for? | 04:48 |
| llutz | arand: really? stupid idea | 04:48 |
| arand | llutz: hence (hd0,1) is first partion (1) of first drive (0). | 04:48 |
| Guest97866 | arand: now Its showing like realtek-linux-audiopack-4.06x.tar.bz2 | 04:48 |
| cde | hi guys~ | 04:49 |
| llutz | arand: stupid because "hd0" = 1st drive :( | 04:49 |
| cde | in Linux using the FTP connect to Linux Server ,is verry fast~ | 04:49 |
| arand | Guest97866: That's also an archived file, extract again ;) | 04:49 |
| Guest97866 | arand: and a folder is also displaying "RHEL5" | 04:49 |
| Guest97866 | arand: ok | 04:49 |
| chelz | Guest97866: is your sound not working? why do you want to install this driver? | 04:50 |
| cde | >.< | 04:50 |
| Guest97866 | chelz: yes that was not working. | 04:50 |
| Guest97866 | arand: now I got the Install file. I run that file with terminal. Is this right? | 04:50 |
| cde | got any one know how to do a one IRC server? | 04:50 |
| arand | Guest97866: But Normally if you get to the stage of a driver coming in an archive, something is wrong, and there is normally a better way to do things... | 04:50 |
| arand | Guest97866: .rpm, .deb, or .bin? | 04:51 |
| Guest97866 | arand: that was not showing any ext. only Install is written over there. | 04:52 |

| cde | chelz: ya,i checking. :) | 04:53 |
| arand | Guest97866: hm, if executed via bash, it might work, but I would look otherwere for a solution still, since installing separate drivers like that, normally is not the way things go... | 04:53 |
| Guest97866 | chelz: Its install successfully. Now problem with graphics driver. | 04:53 |
| cde | chelz: got so many IRC server to Linux ? | 04:53 |

| Guest97866 | which package should I install. | 04:55 |
| chelz | Guest97866: ubuntu provides graphics drivers for almost all use cases. what brand of graphics card do you have? | 04:55 |

| pawan | bash: /home/pawan/pictures: No such file or directory | 05:06 |
| airtonix | hmw, the reason those default wallpapers show up in the first place is because the backgrounds.xml file that the gnome appearance inspector uses to list wallpapers comes pre-defined in the skel setup | 05:06 |
| airtonix | pawan, ~/Pictures not ~/pictures | 05:06 |

| ranjan | ubottu, :) | 05:11 |
| airtonix | hmw, correct. i suspect if you want a 'default wallpaper folder' you'll need to add a definition in the XDG folders list and modify your programs to look there by default | 05:11 |
| chelz | Hick0rd: one might be a bad burn. you could try checking the discs for defects after you boot them. or from the terminal with "md5sum" | 05:11 |
| fuzzybunny69y | hey everyone is I am sshd into a machine on my home network is there anyway i can find out the ip addresses of one of the other machines on my network. my router won't let me login with lynx. | 05:11 |
| airtonix | fuzzybunny69y, lynx or links2 ? | 05:11 |
| chelz | fuzzybunny69y: you could try links2 | 05:11 |
| KRStwo_ | Hick0rd, agreed, that's so strange. Check the MD5s after the burn to make sure it's good. | 05:11 |
| wineman | anybody know how to prevent something from loading when you boot ubuntu? | 05:12 |
| scunizi | fuzzybunny69y: nmap .. but I don't know what "switches" to throw | 05:12 |
| llutz | fuzzybunny69y: nmap -sP 192.168.0.* or whatever ip-range you use | 05:12 |
| chelz | wineman: depends on what the thing is | 05:12 |
| airtonix | wineman, when you boot or after a user logs in ? | 05:12 |
| KRStwo_ | wineman; system, preferences, startup applications | 05:12 |
| hmw | wineman: depends. One could chmod 000 <filename> to make it non-executable. | 05:13 |
| kermit | fuzzybunny69y: tcpdump | 05:13 |
| airtonix | KRStwo_, welcome to "after user logs in" | 05:13 |
| wineman | ok let me type this up | 05:13 |
| hiexpo | whos got coffee | 05:13 |
| KRStwo_ | airtonix; indeed. thanks for having me. | 05:13 |
| hmw | wineman: actually, it is four zeroes: chmod 0000 filename - i do not set 0666, so that I see 0000 later and remember, that it was an executable before. | 05:14 |
| Q_Continuum | Want to set a custom resolution, 1024x600 - so I can emulate a netbook's interface for UNR 9.10 - whats the easiest way to add that as an option on the VM's resolution choices? | 05:14 |
| pawan | hi | 05:14 |
| pawan | not getting any sound | 05:14 |
| randomusr | how can I create a key pair to use with putty? | 05:14 |
| chelz | pawan: did you ever have sound on ubuntu? | 05:14 |
| fuzzybunny69y | airtonix, it is a fedora machine and it doesn't have links2 | 05:14 |
| pawan | no | 05:14 |
| scunizi | fuzzybunny69y: try nmap like llutz mentioned.. works great | 05:15 |
| chelz | !sound | 05:15 |
| ubottu | If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 05:15 |
| chelz | pawan: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting | 05:15 |
| randomusr | !RSA | 05:15 |
| maginot | randomusr, for what I remember putty need to use it own tool, putty-key or something like that | 05:15 |
| randomusr | hmm | 05:15 |
| pawan | no volume control | 05:15 |
| chelz | randomusr: http://www.howtoforge.com/ssh_key_based_logins_putty | 05:15 |
| Out_Cold | **putty-gen | 05:15 |
| randomusr | maginot, then do I export to the host? | 05:16 |
| fuzzybunny69y | scunizi, I just ran nmap -sP 192.168.0.* and it said Nmap done: 256 IP addresses (0 hosts up) scanned in 52.111 seconds | 05:16 |
| chelz | pawan: it should look like a speaker in the upper right corner of your screen | 05:16 |
| maginot | randomusr, on the host you will use a normal key, and you will use a normal key on putty-gen to generate a putty key to be used in the program | 05:16 |
| pawan | no | 05:16 |
| pawan | waiting for sound | 05:16 |
| fuzzybunny69y | oh n/m i think the range was wrong | 05:16 |
| pawan | device | 05:16 |
| chelz | fuzzybunny69y: is your network 192.168. 0 or 1 | 05:16 |
| scunizi | fuzzybunny69y: what's your IP scheme? .1.xxx or .0.xxx or .2.xxx | 05:16 |
| fuzzybunny69y | it was 2 i think | 05:16 |
| chelz | fuzzybunny69y: you can do "ifconfig" | 05:17 |
| llutz | fuzzybunny69y: nmap -sP 192.168.0.* or whatever ip-range you use <-- means you have to change it to fit your network | 05:17 |
| maginot | randomusr, I really don't know why putty just don't use a rsa key direct you first have to convert the key... I used to carry to keys on my pendrive | 05:17 |
| maginot | *two keys | 05:17 |
| fuzzybunny69y | llutz, yeah I changed it and it found some | 05:17 |
| pawan | how to check sound device is working or not | 05:17 |
| wineman | when i turn on the computer after grub choice i get the black screen with the white ubuntu logo, then it goes to black screen with white text to log on to tty1. I can log in or not it doesn't matter, it pauses for about 30 to 45 seconds. Then it gives me errors about dvb, which would be my tv tuner card in my laptop. Then after the pause it goes to the animated logo screen and loads as usual. If i could prevent it from trying to load the | 05:17 |
| randomusr | hmm | 05:18 |
| fuzzybunny69y | thanks you guys you are al great | 05:18 |
| scunizi | pawan: aplay <file.wav or file.ogg or file.mp3> | 05:18 |
| chelz | wineman: you got cut off at "prevent it from trying to load the" | 05:18 |
| chelz | fuzzybunny69y: happy hacking | 05:19 |
| wineman | ok | 05:19 |
| wineman | If i could prevent it from trying to load the tv tuner card i wouldn't have this problem. | 05:19 |
| hmw | is it OK, that my DVB-T USB stick gets quite hot? | 05:19 |
| maginot | wineman, I suppose you could black list the module | 05:19 |
| wineman | you wouldn't know how to do that would you. I am new to ubuntu? | 05:20 |
| grendal_prime | im amazingly pissed off | 05:20 |
| chelz | wineman: if you blacklisted it you'd have to manually load it before you can use the card though | 05:20 |
| chelz | grendal_prime: state thy emergency | 05:20 |
| grendal_prime | i just got a dell mini 10 with this moblin installed...how the hell do you get that off the machine | 05:20 |
| ayrus_ | hi, how to go to the directory /user/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/ | 05:20 |
| wineman | that's fine ubuntu don't support my card anyway. | 05:20 |
| glick | excuse me does anyone knwo if IE works with Wine? | 05:20 |
| grendal_prime | ive tried everything | 05:20 |
| maginot | hmw, if isn't hot at the point of making an egg on it, I suppose its normal.. =P | 05:20 |
| hmw | maginot: i still can hold it in my hand. thank you! | 05:21 |
| grendal_prime | chelz just run virtualbox and call it a day. | 05:21 |
| scunizi | glick: there is ie4linux which will load up ie6-7 but .net stuff won't work | 05:21 |
| phatwabbit | yelp | 05:21 |
| maginot | wineman, first you have to know the module name, maybe inspecting with "lsmod" could give you some clues | 05:21 |
| wineman | hang on | 05:22 |
| phatwabbit | unable to access the sony memory stick on ubuntu | 05:22 |
| phatwabbit | ubuntu 9.10 to be precise | 05:22 |
| glick | apparently firefox doesnt work well with SAPs website | 05:22 |
| phatwabbit | the distro is linux mint | 05:22 |
| maginot | phatwabbit, isn't you memory sticky corrupted ? | 05:23 |
| phatwabbit | nope | 05:23 |
| phatwabbit | works fine on blingdows | 05:23 |
| wineman | ok i see tuner 21540 0 | 05:23 |
| ayrus_ | hi, I'm new to Ubuntu. where is the drivers directory in Linus | 05:23 |
| grendal_prime | I keep trying to just strip off all the desktops and then start up with just the ubuntu-desktop package..but i cant seem to get the moblin crap to go away. | 05:23 |
| scunizi | glick: what's SAPs websites? | 05:23 |
| maginot | phatwabbit, what is the output of dmesg when you plug it? | 05:23 |
| glick | SAP | 05:23 |
| glick | its a company scunizi | 05:23 |
| phatwabbit | have never used to mem card on ubuntu..this is the first time | 05:23 |
| maginot | wineman, echo "blacklist tuner" >> /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf | 05:23 |
| chelz | grendal_prime: have you tried booting to a vanilla ubuntu 9.10 iso installed to a usb stick? | 05:24 |
| ayrus_ | can any one tell me please where is the drivers directory is placed in Ubuntu? | 05:24 |
| scunizi | glick: ah.. the dreaded IE only sites.. unfortunately there's lots of them.. winXX in virtualbox will fix that.. | 05:24 |
| wineman | permission denied | 05:24 |
| maginot | wineman, sudo echo "blacklist tuner" >> /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf | 05:24 |
| maginot | =) | 05:24 |
| chelz | phatwabbit: is it fat32? | 05:24 |
| grendal_prime | weird phatwabbit we use ubuntu machines to check to see if memsticks are good still | 05:24 |
| llutz | maginot: won't work, use tee | 05:24 |
| glick | yeah unfortunatly i dont have winxx | 05:25 |
| chelz | maginot: won't work | 05:25 |
| chelz | sudo bash -c " echo 'blacklist tuner' >> /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf" | 05:25 |
| maginot | oh, sure (I'm used to sudo su, but I'm not supposed to give this "bad advice" here ;)" | 05:25 |
| scunizi | glick: do you have any win on cd? | 05:25 |
| grendal_prime | no chelz this is brandnew factory install ubuntu...i mean...it seems rediculas to have to go through all this to just get a simple gnome desktop for christ sake. | 05:25 |
| glick | nope | 05:25 |
| wineman | still permission denied | 05:25 |
| maginot | wineman, take a look at what chelz said | 05:25 |
| fuzzybunny69y | ok guys i love you cya | 05:25 |
| llutz | maginot: use sudo -i and you are free to give that advice here ;) | 05:25 |
| chelz | that space might cause some issues but i think that might work | 05:26 |
| === KLC[at]HOME is now known as KoluCCi | ||
| chelz | sudo -i is dangerous | 05:26 |
| wineman | ok it took that without denieing it | 05:26 |
| llutz | chelz: why? | 05:26 |
| scunizi | glick: ouch.. probably won't work but you might look at reactOS's site.. they try to emulate win .. maybe they've advanced enough to run IE | 05:26 |
| chelz | grendal_prime: doing a fresh install on any new hardware is something i've always had to do. ;/ | 05:26 |
| wineman | didn't print out anything though | 05:26 |
| hiexpo | chelz, - you watchin american idol ? | 05:26 |
| hmw | ayrus_: most drivers are built into the Kernel directly. Not built-in drivers can be dynamically "inserted" with insmod on run time. Most drivers can be compiled into the Kernel or made a module for insmod. You find Kernel modules in /lib, if I am not mistaken, but that will probably not help you very much. Why did you want to know? | 05:26 |
| grendal_prime | with the mini 10 i have been using it was an appearece opton ..i could use the switch desktop if i wanted to use the remix type desktop. i just want the standard desktop on this thing..its just a royal pain. | 05:26 |
| glick | scunizi, i dont want to hack a bunch of stuff and reinstall my OS in order to go to one damn site | 05:26 |
| chelz | llutz: all the reasons running as root is dangerous. at least sudo makes it so you're sure you mean to be running something as root | 05:27 |
| glick | maybe ill just use a library computer or something then | 05:27 |
| maginot | wineman, no, cat /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf | 05:27 |
| rshakin | hey so any ideas on troubleshooting wpa problems with ubuntu | 05:27 |
| scunizi | glick: no hack.. no reinstall.. if you want to try it run it in a vm with virtualbox | 05:27 |
| hmw | !wifi | rshakin | 05:27 |
| phatwabbit | chelz/maginot | 05:27 |
| chelz | grendal_prime: yeah sounds like you want a reinstall. you could also try Ubuntu Netbook Edition but it doesn't sound like you like netbook-ish interfaces | 05:27 |
| maginot | wineman, take a look at the last line, should be there what you just echoed, reboot and see what happen | 05:27 |
| ubottu | rshakin: Wireless documentation, including how-to guides and troubleshooting information, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 05:27 |
| phatwabbit | anything specific to look for in | 05:27 |
| phatwabbit | dmesg | 05:27 |
| llutz | chelz: different thing. IF you need a root-konsole," sudo -i" is the way to go. besides that, you might be true | 05:27 |
| wineman | # EDAC driver for amd76x clashes with the agp driver preventing the aperture | 05:27 |
| wineman | # from being initialised (Ubuntu: #297750). Blacklist so that the driver | 05:27 |
| wineman | # continues to build and is installable for the few cases where its | 05:27 |
| wineman | # really needed. | 05:27 |
| wineman | blacklist amd76x_edac | 05:27 |
| FloodBot2 | wineman: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 05:27 |
| wineman | blacklist tuner | 05:27 |
| Y0Z | where is sudo? | 05:28 |
| phatwabbit | the funny thing is that MMC/sd works fine | 05:28 |
| grendal_prime | i hate them..my netbook works fine with the ubuntu-desktop.. | 05:28 |
| chelz | phatwabbit: is it fat32? | 05:28 |
| maginot | well, at least blacklist tuner is there :X | 05:28 |
| phatwabbit | btw ...this is a gateway laptop | 05:28 |
| hmw | Y0Z: try "which sudo" | 05:28 |
| phatwabbit | nope | 05:28 |
| phatwabbit | not fat32 | 05:28 |
| Y0Z | sudo, where are you? | 05:28 |
| wineman | ok i will give it a shot | 05:28 |
| maginot | phatwabbit, plug the device, do a dmesg, pastebin the output | 05:28 |

| maginot | wineman, np | 05:28 |
| chelz | phatwabbit: it's probably a permissions issue then. you need to chown and/or chmod stuff | 05:28 |
| phatwabbit | is it possible that this damn laptop is not working fine with linux? | 05:29 |
| phatwabbit | coz my friend has a toshiba and it is able to 'see' MS PRO cards | 05:29 |
| rshakin | hmw: any other ideas on how i would find out whats failing on the inside, because i've done all of the normal steps on getting this to work | 05:29 |
| grendal_prime | its for my mother in law..she has been using ubuntu desktop for the past 5 years..no i have to drop this in her lap with some funky impossibly confusing interface ? you guys seen this...you have to like click on menus over and over again..it blows | 05:29 |
| chelz | phatwabbit: when you use filesystems that honor permissions, then they'll only work with the system you made it on unless you tweak stuff with chown and chmod | 05:29 |
| chelz | phatwabbit: this is filesystems 101 | 05:29 |
| chelz | grendal_prime: right. discussion is in #ubuntu-offtopic. | 05:30 |
| hmw | rshakin: no ideas :( the debugging tutorial is quite elaborative, did you read it before? | 05:30 |
| rshakin | hmw: i've had issues with this for a while, had to use a new driver inside new kernel and stuff as per instructions on the forums on getting my wireless card to work | 05:30 |
| Y0Z | Why is ubuntu so heavy? It`s 3-4 times slower than Windows XP | 05:30 |
| joeb3_ | YOZ, my ubuntu is 3-4 times faster. | 05:31 |
| hmw | rshakin: i see. I am many things, but certainly not a Wifi expert. :) | 05:31 |

| Y0Z | fluxbox | 05:32 |
| chelz | Y0Z: you might try xubuntu. or try looking for some guides on slimming ubuntu down. you might have stuff installed that you don't want. | 05:32 |
| q0_0p | Y0Z: u should try openbox with tint2 | 05:32 |
| q0_0p | its nice | 05:32 |
| rshakin | hmw: did get it to work but, it will only connect to a unsecured wireless ap, and as far as anything else it won't connect to | 05:32 |
| maginot | Y0Z, well, I can't complain, my ubuntu boot on 10 seconds =) | 05:32 |
| dixond | folks, upgraded from 8.10 to 9.10; have a weird new 'feature' with the mouse cursor when using apps in the gnome desktop (most noticeable with gnome terminal) if typing, mouseclicks are 'disabled' until the mouse is moved | 05:33 |
| Y0Z | 10 sec? right :) | 05:33 |
| scunizi | Y0Z: ubuntu minimal https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 05:33 |
| dixond | eg, lets say I click-to-paste immediately after typing something; it won't appear until I wobble the mouse, then click again | 05:33 |
| rshakin | and also i am having issues with the radeon driver... it seemes like the opensource implemmintation of the driver is kinda laggy for X1200 chipset for ATi | 05:33 |
| dixond | didn't used to be that way in 8.10 and it's a serious aggravation. any thoughts? | 05:33 |
| dixond | is this an intentional 'feature' ... or? | 05:33 |
| chelz | dixond: you could see if that happens in a 9.10 live environment | 05:34 |
| maginot | rshakin, use the official driver provided by ATI | 05:34 |
| dixond | chelz: good thought. | 05:34 |
| dixond | I'm pretty sure I've seen this with other installs though - I suspect its a general 9.10 thing; just don't know if its on purpose or not... :-/ | 05:34 |
| rshakin | maginot: for some reason when i install that one it says the card is not found and when i use the wizzard to look for the hardware restricted drivers it does not prompt me like on my laptop | 05:34 |
| hmw | rshakin: I remember that the troubleshooting page was talking about stuff to prepare for WPA2 (perhaps even installing some) - I don't know, how much you know about wifi and Ubuntu, so I can't say, if you already know that all. The tut was really quite good, perhaps you wanna give it a try. | 05:35 |
| rshakin | hmw: i will look into it right now see if i can dig up some logs or something to find out where it's failing | 05:35 |
| chelz | dixond: i haven't heard of anything like that until now | 05:36 |
| hmw | rshakin: Be successful :) | 05:36 |
| chelz | dixond: it might be a compiz thing | 05:36 |
| maginot | rshakin, well, I'm not a ATI user, so can't help you any further then recommending using the driver provided by ATI, all I can say is that nvidia drivers are a perfect fit | 05:36 |
| phatwabbit | sorry for the delay | 05:36 |

| grendal_prime | was sutch a great os.. | 05:37 |
| hiexpo | chelz, - hows chelz doing tonight? :) | 05:37 |
| maginot | phatwabbit, did you run dmesg after pluggin the device ? | 05:38 |
| chelz | DarkVoid82: one is inside the ntfs partition of windows and an actual install creates a partition for linux. wubi installs are sometimes a bit slower and less stable than primary ubuntu but for tryout purposes it works pretty well. i wouldn't recommend using a wubi install for more than say 3 months though. | 05:38 |

| chelz | grendal_prime: dell actually sells normal ubuntu on minis these days i hear | 05:38 |
| dixond | chelz: oh! you've just reminded me. maybe it is to do with the radeon driver - i'm using the opensource one at the moment instead of fglrx because of a bug. maybe its to do with hardware cursor or whatever. | 05:38 |
| hmw | DarkVoid82: a wubi install does put all the files on an NTFS file system, which is not really compatible with *nix. You will not have file permissions, for example, and you will not have perfect performance. Wubi is for testing/playing with Ubuntu only in my opinion. | 05:38 |
| dixond | used to use fglrx in 8.10 | 05:38 |
| poi77 | Hi! I am wondering if anyone here is familiar with using OpenMPI on Ubuntu and can help me with a problem in this package. Thanks! | 05:39 |

| grendal_prime | ya the first one i got had reagular ubuntu on it..this one...moblin..and i cant seem to get it off the machine | 05:39 |
| DarkVoid82 | chelz: I'm dual booting 9.10 and and vista and i just made a live cd for 9.10 netbook remix, so i was just curious | 05:39 |

| poi77 | I can't get openMPI to recognize more than one processor on Ubuntu. The error is: It seems that [at least] one of the processes that was started with mpirun did not invoke MPI_INIT before quitting ... Does anyone know how to resolve this issue? | 05:40 |
| chelz | dixond: yeah trying to use that stuff now might work then | 05:40 |

| chd | aw thank you | 05:42 |
| maginot | phatwabbit, did you read what I said? | 05:42 |
| DarkVoid82 | what are the main differences between 9.10 and 9.10 netbook remix? | 05:43 |
| dixond | chelz: was a new 9.10 bug. there's a big thing in launchpad about it - some sort of ati packaging bug. | 05:43 |
| chelz | DarkVoid82: it's actually Ubuntu Netbook Edition now | 05:43 |
| phatwabbit | maginot: did read...the funny thing is that this port is able to mount mmc cards without problem | 05:43 |
| DarkVoid82 | chelz: oh ok it still says netbook remix on the ubuntu website | 05:44 |
| maginot | phatwabbit, lets do something to guarantee everything is working, open a console and type "udevadm monitor" this will monitor anything that you plug, after running the command plug the memory sticky, see if you receive any output | 05:44 |
| hmw | DarkVoid82: netbook remix just comes optimized for low resolutions and has some special menu, but basically, they are not very different | 05:44 |
| chelz | DarkVoid82: ah, that needs updating. well it contains stuff regular ubuntu doesn't and is i guess optimized for netbooks, probably bootup stuff. here are some tools only it has: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Netbook_Edition#Component_packages | 05:44 |
| phatwabbit | maginot: too much info on udevadm | 05:45 |
| phatwabbit | anything specific you want me to grep for | 05:45 |
| maginot | phatwabbit, just want to know if anything is output after you plug the device | 05:46 |
| DarkVoid82 | chelz: ok cool, i'm thinking of replaceing regular 9.10 with 9.10 netbook, but I have a notebook with a dvdrom drive so maybe thats not a good idea? i'm still having trouble with my dvdrom drive on regular 9.10 anyways | 05:46 |
| maginot | phatwabbit, a good thing to grep for is for the word "block" | 05:46 |
| maginot | phatwabbit, you may have something like /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.7/usb1/1-2/1-2.4/1-2.4:1.0/host8/target8:0:0/8:0:0:0/block/sdc (block) | 05:47 |
| chelz | DarkVoid82: you can always install them alongside eachother to try it out | 05:48 |

| jak2000 | onlly with wine? | 05:50 |
| jak2000 | *only | 05:50 |
| phatwabbit | jak2000: wine is your answer | 05:50 |
| chelz | DarkVoid82: if your cpu supports vm extensions you could try running your vista in a vm like virtualbox. if it works out you could migrate it to a virtualdisk and have ubuntu's partition expand to take up the space vista had. | 05:50 |
| goddard | just give up on windows apps | 05:50 |
| maginot | phatwabbit, if you don't mind, post the full output from udevmonitor... with the output you gave it is recognizing the disk, but can't see any partition on it | 05:50 |
| chelz | jak2000: it's best to use programs that work both on windows and linux if you plan to move between the platforms, such as firefox and openoffice | 05:50 |

| ubottu | jak2000: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP.

| Dougdoug4 | chelz right click where? | 06:06 |
| chelz | DarkVoid82: you could try booting to usb and seeing if the issue occurs in the liveinstall | 06:06 |

| chelz | Geekthras: a proust fan eh, not sure if there's any redemption for your kind. you might try: sudo rmdir c | 06:29 |
| maginot | Geekthras, well, looks like a fuse problem... do you updated your system, maybe the kernel, recently ? | 06:29 |
| loquitus | Anybody know how to fix this issue where the Karmic upgrade hoses the ability to play videos? | 06:29 |
| Geekthras | chelz: proust? wha? | 06:29 |
| chelz | Geekthras: orgiophantes? | 06:30 |
| Geekthras | I only know it as a greek word that I transliterated into english | 06:30 |
| om26er | loquitus, try sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras | 06:30 |
| loquitus | om26er: already newest version | 06:30 |

| Geekthras | found it in a big lexicon, along with rhobikos (unable to pronounce the letter rho) and rhathapugizo (to smack on the buttocks) | 06:30 |
| maginot | Geekthras, did you tried using fsck on that disk? | 06:31 |
| om26er | loquitus, sudo apt-get purge ubuntu-restricted-extras ;sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras | 06:31 |
| axplayer | how do I check if a package is installed with the apt-get command? | 06:31 |

| loquitus | om26er: thanks. that now lets it play. but why are the colors messed up? there is some crazy blue hue on things | 06:33 |
| chelz | Geekthras: fusermount -z /mnt/c | 06:33 |
| chelz | Geekthras: something scary happened on your system though and i think you might need to reboot if this stuff doesn't work | 06:33 |
| om26er | loquitus, some setting might be messed up | 06:34 |
| maginot | Geekthras, if /mnt is inside /dev/sda1 them fsck /dev/sda1 | 06:34 |
| loquitus | om26er: it was not doing this before and I know my monitors are fine... all players are showing the same crazy hue | 06:34 |
| chelz | loquitus: you need to go to preferences and try clicking set defaults. if that doesn't work mess with the hue. it's a known issue. | 06:34 |
| loquitus | chelz: the crazy blue issue is a known issue? | 06:34 |

| Geekthras | in fact, almost every offset from 71 to 507 is different | 06:37 |
| maginot | Geekthras, you certainly have a problem on the partition, the ??? looks like a problem with the inodes... | 06:38 |
| arand | Problem installing gnash from getgnash.org on ubuntu, I have /etc/apt/sources.list.d/gnash.list with "deb http://www.getgnash.org/debs/ubuntu karmic main" this is what I get with aptitude update: http://pastebin.com/uySgvwe6 (w/ grep gnash) but this is what apt-cache policy shows me: http://pastebin.com/viVdPgbs ... so something is going wrong... | 06:38 |

| maginot | Geekthras, the worse thing that could happen is not to boot ;D | 06:40 |
| chelz | Geekthras: but you have backups right, so doesn't matter if anything happens to this drive | 06:40 |

| * maginot is searching for an simple console wav player... | 06:42 | |
| theadmin | Hello everyone. | 06:42 |
| chelz | JamesSavko: vnc requires a graphics card on the server machine. but you might be able to get away with not having one by using freenx or ssh x forwarding. i'm not entirely sure though | 06:42 |
| theadmin | maginot: mplayer? cvlc? | 06:42 |
| chelz | maginot: mpg123 | 06:42 |
| maginot | theadmin, I was thinking about something a little smaller... like mpg123 | 06:42 |
| chelz | jinx | 06:42 |
| maginot | chelz, I was in doubt that mpg123 was able to play wav files | 06:43 |
| JamesSavko | chelz: I have full ssh root access, but was hoping to find a way to connect to a gui. I will check out freenx and ssh x forwarding. Any other suggestions? | 06:43 |

| theadmin | DryGrain: Are you sure those avi's are fine? | 07:17 |
| DasEi | DryGrain: strange then, another player maybe ? or is the hd extremly full ? | 07:17 |
| DryGrain | They've played fine in the past | 07:17 |

| DryGrain | i think its 160/250gb | 07:18 |
| DryGrain | *shrug* | 07:18 |
| airtonix | theadmin, visit doom9.org | 07:18 |
| ob_ | ja? | 07:18 |
| DasEi | theadmin: k3b does fine for me | 07:18 |
| theadmin | airtonix: Doom? Isn't this a game of some kind? :/ | 07:18 |
| theadmin | airtonix: Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at doom9.org. | 07:19 |
| DasEi | theadmin: side containing info as such | 07:19 |
| DryGrain | theadmin, you need a burner program, i've wasted many a writeable disc burning data files to them :) | 07:20 |
| airtonix | theadmin, just type : doom9 in the address bar in firefox | 07:20 |
| theadmin | Hm *inserts a disc full of AVI's in a DVD player, sees it brought up a menu asking to select one* | 07:20 |
| DasEi | theadmin: http://www.doom9.org is up | 07:20 |
| DryGrain | well, not wasted, but 'resigned to the closet' | 07:20 |
| apepe | hi, I have an existing win7 partition, can I use LVM on the remaining free HD space without touching windows? | 07:21 |
| theadmin | apepe: Just resize the partition and create another one in the appeared space, no? | 07:22 |
| theadmin | Not LVM but should do | 07:22 |
| DasEi | apepe: yesno,, you got to resize the win--partition | 07:22 |
| apepe | actually there is an available non partitioned space on the HD, can I use LVM on that without affecting the windows partition? | 07:23 |
| DasEi | apepe: but in the free space can then have an extended partition with lot's of logical ones inside | 07:23 |
| nishanth | does any one know how to run a program that keeps giving the msg the cd-rom not detected...i actually dont have a cd-rom for this instead i installed it using iso image | 07:24 |
| apepe | so that means I can mix LVM and standard partitions? example 320Gb of HD, 100Gb is used by windows, remaining is an LVM in which I will make logical partitions | 07:25 |
| DasEi | nishanth: you run a prog that needs the installer cd ? | 07:25 |
| aquateenhgrfrce | 07:25 | |
| aquateenhgrfrce | BLAH | 07:25 |
| DasEi | apepe: yes | 07:25 |
| apepe | ok, thanks all, | 07:26 |
| apepe | bye | 07:26 |

| airtonix | !anyone | 07:28 |
| ubottu | A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? | 07:28 |
| fireace | So I've been trying to run a live CD of UNR on my eeepc 1000H but each time it just says 'can not mount /dev/loop1 on /cow' | 07:31 |
| fireace | I've verified the disk and it says it's ok | 07:31 |
| fireace | I really don't even know where to start with a problem like this | 07:31 |
| DasEi | !iso | fireace | 07:31 |
| ubottu | fireace: To mount an ISO disc image, type « sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint> » - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning. | 07:31 |
| fireace | I'm actually running it off a USB drive | 07:32 |
| fireace | I should of mentioned that | 07:32 |
| DasEi | same | 07:32 |
| DasEi | fireace: and of course got to create the mountpoint first | 07:32 |
| xTheGoat121x | I'm in the process of installing UNR, and I'm wondering if putting /boot on my (faster) SSD would improve boot times? | 07:33 |
| smerz | xTheGoat121x, put the whole system on the SSD ? :) | 07:35 |
| coz_ | ^^ | 07:35 |
| chelz | xTheGoat121x: i think it only has to load a max of 8-10 MiB so it probably hardly would be noticeable | 07:35 |
| smerz | i mean i personally only have a 12GB root filesystem | 07:35 |
| DasEi | xTheGoat121x: yes, would , but also need the libs and other stuff, better put whole but /homme on it | 07:35 |
| W43372 | I think I'm getting conflicting information on the NDISwrapper wifi docs page. If I've got the windows driver for my internet stick do I install it using Wine, or do I install it using NDISgtk? | 07:36 |
| smerz | i'm lying it's actually 15gb :-D | 07:36 |
| xTheGoat121x | smerz, the problem is it's an older netbook (an EEEPC 701) so the SSD only has 2gb | 07:36 |
| hellyeah | hey | 07:36 |
| hellyeah | how can i see version of package and related package | 07:36 |
| xTheGoat121x | DasEi, see my previous comment | 07:37 |
| DasEi | xTheGoat121x: more a candidat for swap | 07:37 |
| W43372 | I think I'm getting conflicting information on the NDISwrapper wifi docs page. If I've got the windows driver for my internet stick do I install it using Wine, or do I install it using NDISgtk? | 07:37 |
| smerz | tbh what is the read performance of tha 2GB SSD? The old SSD are not thaaat superb compared to todays disks | 07:37 |
| smerz | compared to todays normal disk drives i mean | 07:38 |
| pawan | hi | 07:38 |
| pawan | cant see volume icon | 07:38 |
| jud | hey people, anyone out there able to direct a complete novice in getting started with mysql | 07:38 |
| jud | ? | 07:38 |
| smerz | pawan, which ubuntu version are you running? Lucid alpha3 by any chance? | 07:38 |
| DasEi | pawan : right click upper panel > add > choose it | 07:38 |
| chelz | !lamp | jud | 07:38 |
| ubottu | jud: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+) | 07:39 |
| pawan | waiting for sound system to respond | 07:39 |
| pawan | 9.10 | 07:39 |
| smerz | pawan, hm 9.10 should have it sitting at the top right by default | 07:39 |
| xTheGoat121x | smerz, I've been booting the thing off of an SDHC card for a while now, but just added a flash drive as an "internal" so I can regain my SD slot | 07:39 |
| jud | cheers! | 07:39 |
| W43372 | jud: You might want to check Jimmyr's youtube channel. He's got video tutorials on that kind of thing | 07:39 |
| xTheGoat121x | I was just looking for a way to perhaps improve things | 07:39 |
| W43372 | jud: also, I think his website is www.jimmyr.com | 07:40 |
| pawan | i am not having it | 07:40 |
| jud | thanks guys! | 07:40 |
| W43372 | jud: There also might be something about mysql on a webhosing unleashed post that has over 100 links to open courseware in the IT field. There's some of it that's from MIT as well. | 07:40 |
| pawan | how to add it | 07:40 |
| W43372 | I think I'm getting conflicting information on the NDISwrapper wifi docs page. If I've got the windows driver for my internet stick do I install it using Wine, or do I install it using NDISgtk? | 07:40 |
| smerz | xTheGoat121x, I would not be surprised if a current 2,5 inch harddisk has comparable read performance compared to the 2gb SDD (which i presume to be really old OR really small) | 07:40 |
| johndee | has anyone managed to install lucid beta 1 using hd-image installer? | 07:41 |
| smerz | W43372, oeh installing drivers using wine is no good. As for the rest i dont know | 07:41 |
| airtonix | !anyone > johndee | 07:41 |
| ubottu | johndee, please see my private message | 07:41 |
| xTheGoat121x | smerz, really small -- it's part of a first generation netbook | 07:41 |
| W43372 | smerz: The wifi docs on NDISwrapper said that I should install it using Wine, and then it says ot install them using NDISgtk | 07:42 |
| airtonix | W43372, do the windows drivers come as an .exe file or a zip file ? | 07:42 |
| W43372 | smerz: of course I could be wrong and the NDIS sourceforge page said to use Wine... | 07:42 |
| smerz | W43372, ok I'll shut up then. This stuff is out of my league :) | 07:42 |
| chelz | jud: https://help.ubuntu.com/9.10/serverguide/C/mysql.html | 07:42 |
| W43372 | airtonix: The driver that I already have is an .exe. I just need to know if I install it using Wine or NDISgtk... | 07:42 |
| xTheGoat121x | W43372, what type of wireless card is it? | 07:43 |
| smerz | xTheGoat121x, but I'm puzzeled. The 2GB SSD is not the only storage in your system right? Putting /boot there will not do much to boot time. As someone else said the SSD is probably a good candidate for the swap partition | 07:43 |
| airtonix | W43372, more often than not its just a self-extracting archive that cant be opened with an archive manager, so yet you run the exe with wine and hopefully you end up with it asking where you want to unpack it | 07:43 |
| W43372 | xTheGoat121x: it's a NETGEAR WPN111. I've got the driver for it already, I just need to know if I should use Wine or NDISgtk. | 07:44 |
| airtonix | W43372, after that, you should have a folder with a bunch of files...hopefully there is the driver information file there (.inf) | 07:44 |
| airtonix | W43372, once you have that, use ndisgtk on that folder | 07:44 |
| johndee | well then..wth is wrong with hd-media installer. it only finds iso image from the second try and then says it can't copy some files from the cd. any known fix? | 07:44 |
| CharlieBoomBoom | who do I message for troubleshooting? | 07:44 |
| W43372 | Thanks. I'll use Wine and keep my fingers crossed and hope that all of this works. | 07:44 |
| johndee | airtonix: thank you :) | 07:44 |
| airtonix | !ask | CharlieBoomBoom | 07:45 |
| ubottu | CharlieBoomBoom: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 07:45 |
| DasEi | pawan : sudo apt-get install asmix | 07:45 |
| airtonix | johndee, the idea is that you be descriptive in your situation | 07:45 |
| DasEi | pawan: I just searched it, it's a try | 07:45 |
| CharlieBoomBoom | !ask alright so i can run ubuntu on my virtual machine but when i start up my computer and try to either install or run without changin anything it freezes and stays on the screen | 07:46 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 07:46 |
| airtonix | CharlieBoomBoom, which screen ? | 07:46 |
| chelz | CharlieBoomBoom: that probably is an issue to take up with the provider of your virtual machine software. | 07:46 |
| airtonix | chelz, read the question again | 07:47 |
| DasEi | !md5 | CharlieBoomBoom | 07:47 |
| ubottu | CharlieBoomBoom: To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows | 07:47 |
| === s4h|off is now known as s4h | ||
| theadmin | Grah, I was dropped off | 07:47 |
| johndee | airtonix: i believe i am. the installer is copied to usb along with iso image. after finding the image it says it can't copy several files even though md5 matches | 07:48 |
| johndee | of the iso | 07:48 |
| DasEi | johndee: I havent followed the whole, you want a usb-installer done from the iso ? | 07:49 |
| johndee | DasEi: no. i'm trying to use hd-media installer from usb flash and it fails | 07:49 |
| airtonix | !lucid | johndee | 07:49 |
| Dougdoug4 | where are the ubuntu themes located? | 07:49 |
| ubottu | johndee: Lucid Lynx is the codename for Ubuntu 10.04, due April 29th, 2010 - Lucid is NOT released and is NOT stable - Discussion and support only in #ubuntu+1 - Development Schedule: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LucidReleaseSchedule | 07:49 |
| maginot | DasEi, hd-media? is this a valid program for linux | 07:50 |
| DasEi | airtonix: sry, haven't seen you talking... | 07:50 |
| CharlieBoomBoom | airtonix sorry back to your question i was registering, on the first start up screen | 07:50 |
| airtonix | johndee, you're better off asking in #ubuntu+1 about lucid questions | 07:50 |
| DasEi | maginot: johnd.. wants to install from usb to hd , as it seems | 07:51 |
| johndee | airtonix: i'll try tnx | 07:51 |
| CharlieBoomBoom | before any installation, right after choosing my languange. | 07:51 |
| johndee | DasEi: that's right | 07:51 |
| airtonix | CharlieBoomBoom, is it a laptop or desktop ? | 07:51 |
| CharlieBoomBoom | laptop | 07:51 |
| DasEi | johndee: does the live of the usb boot ? | 07:51 |
| airtonix | CharlieBoomBoom, ok first thing i usually try on laptops is to turn off a few boot parameters. | 07:51 |
| CharlieBoomBoom | alright, how do I do this lol :) | 07:52 |
| maginot | now I got it... | 07:52 |
| airtonix | CharlieBoomBoom, at the screen you have where you are asked to choose what to do (boot, install, check disc, etc, etc) press f6 | 07:52 |
| maginot | purple is because of the purple irc client.. | 07:52 |
| maginot | =) | 07:52 |
| DasEi | =) | 07:52 |
| CharlieBoomBoom | alright and than what? | 07:52 |
| johndee | DasEi: syslinux boots and the installer starts. there's no livecd mode | 07:52 |
| DasEi | johndee: I use unetbootin for such, it seldom failed me, concerning live it depends which distrotype (alternate,desk,server) you took then | 07:54 |
| airtonix | CharlieBoomBoom, you see a menu now ? | 07:54 |
| airtonix | CharlieBoomBoom, should look like this : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=menuf6.1.png | 07:54 |
| CharlieBoomBoom | idk cause this is my only comp right now | 07:54 |
| CharlieBoomBoom | alright thank you | 07:54 |
| bazhang | DasEi, please take this to #ubuntu+1 | 07:54 |
| theadmin | btw a question: why do Ubuntu people never change major FF version before their next release (i.e. Karmic has 3.5 and that's it) | 07:54 |
| airtonix | CharlieBoomBoom, what i turn off is : noapic nolapic | 07:54 |
| DasEi | johndee: talk on in #ubuntu+1 ? | 07:54 |
| CharlieBoomBoom | alright and you think that will work? | 07:55 |
| CharlieBoomBoom | has yours ever frozen from trying to run it? | 07:55 |
| johndee | DasEi: yes:) | 07:55 |
| airtonix | CharlieBoomBoom, try that, select those two i mentioned so that they have a cross on the left of them \ | 07:55 |
| CharlieBoomBoom | alright i will right now | 07:55 |
| CharlieBoomBoom | back in a few ^^ | 07:55 |
| theadmin | how can i disable trash? | 07:55 |
| airtonix | CharlieBoomBoom, most laptops i've installed ubuntu on have not moved past the stage you mention if i do not turn those two options off | 07:56 |
| DasEi | theadmin: empty or disable ? | 07:56 |
| airtonix | theadmin, define 'disable trash' | 07:56 |
| theadmin | airtonix: DasEi: Make it impossible to move files to trash in any way at all | 07:56 |
| airtonix | theadmin, the trash subsystem is an aspect of Gnome Virtual File System | 07:57 |
| maginot | theadmin, use gconf-editor | 07:57 |
| theadmin | ah, gvfs... Okay, then it is in gconf. Thanks, maginot && airtonix | 07:57 |
| DasEi | theadmin: change the ownership of trashfolder, but root can always change that back, and a user could just move stuff to another folder | 07:57 |
| DasEi | !trash | 07:57 |
| ubottu | The location of Trash has changed since 8.04, it is now located in ~/.local/share/Trash | Looking for the trash in previous versions: ~/.Trash | 07:57 |
| theadmin | chmod: cannot access `/home/r00t/.local/share/Trash': No such file or directory | 07:58 |
| maginot | theadmin, /app/nautilus/desktop > trash_icon_visible | 07:58 |
| theadmin | maginot: Not that lol that makes "Trash" appear in ~/Desktop | 07:58 |
| jbrouhard | What's the best VMWare alternative for Ubuntu (I've been absent from Ubuntu for a few years now) | 07:58 |
| theadmin | jbrouhard: Virtualbox is my fav | 07:59 |
| jbrouhard | Hmm | 07:59 |
| maginot | theadmin, you want to permanently disable trash? | 07:59 |
| airtonix | theadmin, how about changing the nautilus options to delete files instead of moving it to the trash ? | 07:59 |
| jbrouhard | Thanks theadmin | 07:59 |
| DasEi | jbrouhard: best ca become a poll, vbox is an equal | 07:59 |
| jbrouhard | I'll check in to that one shortly | 07:59 |
| coz_ | airtonix, open nautilus go to Edit/Preferences | 07:59 |
| theadmin | airtonix: It has "Add an option to bypass trash", but no way to remove the "Move to trash" thing | 07:59 |
| maginot | theadmin, if it is permanently you have to change a polkit rule | 07:59 |
| airtonix | coz_, it was not a request | 07:59 |
| coz_ | airtonix, oh sorry | 08:00 |
| DasEi | theadmin: you just want the icon to disappear ? | 08:00 |
| theadmin | DasEi: I want to make it impossible to move files to trash whereever this is | 08:00 |
| DasEi | theadmin: cd to Trash in trml, sudo chmod -R it | 08:01 |
| theadmin | DasEi: Yes, that's what i'm trying, i can't find the trash folder lol | 08:01 |

| maginot | theadmin, do you want to remove the icon, the trash of nautilus or made everything that is deleted to never go to trash? ANy one of them are on gconf-editor | 08:08 |
| usuario_ | k tal | 08:08 |

| maginot | theadmin, just open gconf-editor and go to apps/nautilus/preferences/enable_delete | 08:09 |
| tomek_ | hi | 08:09 |
| theadmin | maginot: This is active. That enables a "Delete" option in context menu, however, "Move to trash" remains | 08:09 |

| maginot | theadmin, after that nothing is gone to trash anymore | 08:09 |
| tomek_ | lol | 08:10 |
| maginot | theadmin, I see what you mean | 08:11 |
| hceylan | nevermind got it, it is the PS1 environment variable | 08:11 |
| maginot | theadmin, let me see if I can find the right key | 08:11 |
| theadmin | hceylan: wha what the heck is that o_O | 08:12 |
| hceylan | when you fire the console the fixed beginning of the line like in ie: "hceylan@ceylan:~/Projects/Professional/Inomera/Netmera$" | 08:13 |
| hceylan | theadmin: I am coming from fedora and used to seeing like I described above | 08:13 |
| maginot | hceylan@ceylan part | 08:13 |
| hceylan | maginot: part???? | 08:14 |
| hceylan | PS1="$ " gives a clean prompt for bash | 08:14 |
| hceylan | would be a good idea to add to .bashrc... | 08:15 |
| theadmin | hceylan: for me, $PS1 is like this: "\[\e]0;\u@\h: \w\a\]${debian_chroot:+($debian_chroot)}\u@\h:\w\$", which looks like a huge set of nonsense | 08:15 |
| hceylan | theadmin: I know for me too... Even less and less useful as you go into deeper in filesystem while using console | 08:15 |
| maginot | there is a second part, PS2 The value of this parameter is expanded as with PS1 and used as the secondary prompt string. The default is ``> ''. | 08:16 |
| alioth | I use a two-line prompt and put the path above. Keeps things clean. | 08:16 |
| theadmin | hceylan: how about doing 'export PS1=$(basename $PWD)', would give you the last part of the path as you wanted | 08:16 |
| hceylan | theadmin: I can appreciate to see the username in the prompt, but the pwd is useless | 08:16 |

| vipin | I am new to xchat what are the commands?? | 08:19 |
| theadmin | xiangjun: Please see if your manufacturer provides a Linux driver on their site | 08:19 |
| theadmin | vipin: What commands lol | 08:19 |
| portatil | XD | 08:19 |
| xiangjun | no , | 08:19 |
| theadmin | ubottu: es | portatil | 08:19 |
| ubottu | portatil: En la mayoría de canales de Ubuntu se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español o charlar entra en el canal #ubuntu-es. Escribe "/join #ubuntu-es" (sin comillas) y dale a enter. | 08:19 |
| xiangjun | thank you | 08:20 |
| hceylan | theadmin: I decided to go with PS1="$ " | 08:21 |
| hceylan | theadmin: muuuuuch cleaner, and saves space | 08:21 |
| xiangjun | Is there any action i can do to make my audio card work? | 08:21 |
| maginot | theadmin, hey, I think this is what you want: http://www.movingtofreedom.org/2007/06/28/how-do-you-disable-the-ctrl-t-move-to-trash-shortcut-in-gnome-nautilus/ I would try here, but have made some changes to my nautilus and so I can't test it | 08:21 |
| vipin | I have a problem with TweetDeck it does not work properlyin Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic | 08:21 |
| theadmin | hceylan: As you want.... but that is kinda confusing for me, I leave the default | 08:21 |
| hceylan | theadmin: different solutions works for different uses. For an admin that wanders xxx boxes and uses different users it definitely makes sense to use the default | 08:22 |
| hceylan | theadmin: but for a user like me (develoeper) I am on my laptop all day long | 08:23 |
| hceylan | theadmin: So there is no danger of confision if I have 3 different consoles running | 08:23 |
| Dougdoug4 | Hey. Are there any things for Ubuntu that are like the mac dock? | 08:23 |
| Dougdoug4 | or similar to windows rocketdock? | 08:23 |
| hceylan | theadmin: so space is more valueable for me... | 08:23 |
| maginot | Dougdoug4, take a looke at avant-window-navigator | 08:23 |
| theadmin | Dougdoug4: awn, docky... | 08:24 |
| hceylan | Dougdoug4: There's also smothtasks widget for KDE | 08:24 |
| maginot | Dougdoug4, cairo-dock is other alternative, but I use awn ( avant-window-navigator) | 08:24 |
| hceylan | Dougdoug4: Much like trying to imitate the Win7 task bar | 08:24 |
| theadmin | maginot: This doesn't seem to work anymore | 08:24 |
| maginot | theadmin, which ? | 08:24 |
| theadmin | maginot: The huge link you posted | 08:24 |
| theadmin | maginot: It has outdated info | 08:25 |
| maginot | theadmin, I'm on it... | 08:25 |
| hceylan | Dougdoug4: Pinning is not identical to win 7 yet as it requires some changes in KDE base | 08:25 |
| maginot | theadmin, oh... I can't know, my nautilus isn't like the default | 08:25 |
| faron | anybody know...do you have to have some sort of special program on your pc in order to be able to send an image from the web to a cell phone ? I ask because,I found one & I am having problems doing this when I shouldn't be | 08:26 |
| mouse_ | What is the nautilus default window size and how do I keep it at that size every time it opens? | 08:27 |
| theadmin | grah. Why the heck does "Places" menu still have "cdrom0" even though the thing is disconnected? :/ | 08:27 |
| dallis | Man, guys... openbox should be the default DE... it's programmed in awesome. | 08:28 |
| maginot | mouse_, you could change with gconf-editor the key at: /apps/nautilus/preferences/navigation_window_saved_geometry | 08:30 |

| maco | theadmin: mythbuntu, ubuntu studio | 08:30 |

| theadmin | dallis: Meh, i mean distros which contain "*buntu" | 08:31 |
| nishanth | any one know how to use rarcrack | 08:31 |

| crypt-0 | nishanth, if there is sufficient length it could take considerable, impractical time consider using a dictionary instead of brute force | 08:35 |
| nishanth | crypt-0: RarCrack! 0.2 by David Zoltan Kedves (kedazo@gmail.com) Segmentation fault (core dumped) | 08:36 |
| nishanth | this is the msg i get | 08:36 |
| nishanth | does it mean that rarcrack cannot open it | 08:37 |
| theadmin | nishanth: It tries to access a bad memory block. Probably a programming error? | 08:37 |
| nishanth | theadmin; do you know a way to crack a rar file? | 08:37 |
| theadmin | nishanth: No. | 08:37 |

| crypt-0 | nishanth, You could attack the keyspace but that is far more complex, but more efficient. | 08:39 |
| Newklear | Hello - How do you change the Ubuntu repositories inside Linux Mint software sources to local ones please ? | 08:39 |
| maginot | nishanth, this isn't the subject for this channel, if you want make this kind of question go to #security and hope you get well interpreted | 08:40 |
| iceroot | nishanth: bruteforce | 08:40 |
| maginot | ravibn, grep "Driver" /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 08:40 |
| arand | Newklear: No mint support here, but in ubuntu it's done via the "software sources" | 08:40 |
| crypt-0 | nishanth, if its a file that yours, and you just forgot the password to chances are it decrypted somewhere and was stored as plaintext (maybe in /tmp) so try a file recovery tool. | 08:40 |
| nishanth | nah i downloaded this file | 08:41 |
| maginot | ravibn, if you there is no ouput run this and pastebin: "grep -i "Module" /var/log/Xorg.0.log" | 08:41 |
| Newklear | thank you arand, and how would I do that in software sources, I have local capped internet in south africa ? | 08:41 |
| iceroot | nishanth: then ask for the password where you donwloaded the file and remeber, this is ubuntu-support | 08:41 |
| maginot | ravibn, actually if you pastebin, paste everything: "cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log" | 08:42 |
| maginot | !pastebin | 08:42 |
| ubottu | For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://tinyurl.com/imagebin | !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic. | 08:42 |
| nishanth | iceroot : unfortunately there isn't any info abt the password on that website | 08:42 |
| arand | Newklear: [menu]system>administration>software sources | 08:42 |
| ravibn | maginot: Here it is http://pastebin.com/MRASU9GB | 08:43 |
| Newklear | yes arand I am aware of that, but I am capped local (i.e I cannot browse international), I want to be able to download locally, how can I do that please ? | 08:43 |
| arand | Newklear: The "Download from" button | 08:43 |
| maginot | ravibn, you are using driver "vesa" | 08:43 |
| arand | Newklear: You should be able to select one of the many available from there.. | 08:44 |
| Newklear | I have no local option, which I would presume I need to add the local repository path | 08:44 |
| maginot | ravibn, which is an standard graphics drive that support 1024x768 resolution (maybe more?) | 08:44 |
| ravibn | maginot : how can I change that it to the one supplied by intel ? | 08:44 |
| maginot | ravibn, editing /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 08:44 |
| knightrage | hey guys... i'm trying to reconfigure my kernel to my customization according to http://www.howtoforge.com/kernel_compilation_ubuntu which seems like a good guide. however, i get to the 'make-kpkg clean' portion and i get an error "No rule to make target `ubuntu/aufs/magic.mk'. Stop." any idea why? i'm using 2.6.31-20 | 08:45 |
| Newklear | I cannot google it internationally, that is why I am respectfully asking for help on how to add a local respository link for South Africa here. | 08:45 |
| maginot | ravibn, look where is vesa and change to intel, if you are going to use any driver supplied by their site so you must follow their instructions | 08:45 |
| maco | Newklear: the software sources thing should let you select the za repository, i think? | 08:46 |
| ravibn | maginot: there is no xorg.conf under /etc/X11 | 08:46 |
| maginot | ravibn, that is the default behavior | 08:46 |
| Newklear | for some reason I don't have a local za repository maco | 08:46 |
| maco | Newklear: in your sources.list replace http://archive.ubuntu.com with http://za.archive.ubuntu.com | 08:46 |
| arand | Newklear: If you go into "other" in that menu, the za servers should be listed and selectable. | 08:46 |
| Newklear | thank you maco, that was what I was looking for, greatly appreciated | 08:47 |
| maginot | ravibn, and if you are using vesa then it was configured automatically already | 08:47 |
| ravibn | maginot : Intel supplies some device drivers for this motherboard so I wanted to install that | 08:47 |
| Zerp64 | Does anyone have an r700-series radeon chipset using the o/s drivers? What kind of mileage do you get out of it, glxgears-style. | 08:48 |
| Zerp64 | *? | 08:48 |
| maginot | ravibn, these are linux drivers ? So follow their instructions/installer | 08:48 |
| theadmin | Any idea why update-manager complains that a package manager is working (with a tray icon) when it checks for updates? | 08:48 |
| knightrage | mmmm | 08:49 |
| theadmin | This is ridiculous | 08:49 |
| maginot | theadmin, maybe some block process, try killall on the update manager | 08:49 |
| theadmin | maginot: No no. There is a daily update check. So, every day, around 10AM over here, it complains about that. It's a bug most certainly, a hilarious one | 08:50 |
| theadmin | It complains on itself, you see. | 08:50 |
| arand | Newklear: The problem seems to be that Mint has a very limited selection of mirrors, so all the mint-specific packages won't be available locally. | 08:50 |
| Zerp64 | Auto updates bother me. How does it do with manually running the manager after you killall? | 08:50 |
| * maginot thinks his xchat modification will be very usefull ... | 08:51 | |
| knightrage | arrrrg | 08:51 |
| theadmin | Zerp64: To disable auto updating, System - Admininstration - Update manager - Settings. Disable "check for updates" | 08:52 |
| Zerp64 | theadmin: I know. I was asking how it worked for you. :p | 08:53 |
| theadmin | Zerp64: I didn't killall anything :P But i assume it would start again sometime later | 08:53 |
| Zerp64 | So is synaptic going to eventually be removed in a later release? | 08:54 |
| theadmin | Zerp64: Huh, why?! | 08:54 |
| theadmin | They might remove it but that is very doubtable as of now | 08:56 |
| jbrouhard | I have to admit | 08:57 |
| jbrouhard | i'm liking being back in Ubuntu | 08:57 |
| jbrouhard | aftter spending the last 3, 4 years in Windows | 08:57 |
| Zerp64 | theadmin: Have you read the lucid announcements? They're focusing on the simpleton software center, and I recall from somewhere in my muddy memory that "mumble mumble mumble elimination mumble synaptic". | 08:57 |
| theadmin | jbrouhard: glad to hear that. | 08:57 |
| jbrouhard | The major problem i had was a certain game of course LOL | 08:58 |
| theadmin | Zerp64: Software Center as of now is a Synaptic frontend | 08:58 |
| cewek | aaaaa.... | 08:58 |
| jbrouhard | I might as well get back into business with the ubuntu-missouri LOCO that me and a friend created some time ago | 08:58 |

| raven | after wakeup eth0 disabled - how to enable it again? | 08:58 |
| theadmin | Zerp64: And Synaptic, in hand, is a apt-get frontend :P So USC is a frontend to a frontend | 08:59 |
| cewek | theadmin: hi | 09:00 |
| theadmin | cewek: Hello. | 09:00 |
| Zerp64 | theadmin: Seriously? It couldn't be that diluted... | 09:00 |
| theadmin | Zerp64: Read somewhere that synaptic is (or was) an apt-get frontend | 09:00 |
| maco | theadmin: erm i think USC uses python-apt as its backend | 09:00 |
| cewek | theadmin : how do you do.. | 09:00 |
| theadmin | maco: Oh?... Hm. | 09:00 |
| Zerp64 | That makes more sense. | 09:01 |
| theadmin | cewek: That is offtopic here, for chatting please join #ubuntu-offtopic | 09:01 |
| Zerp64 | Hard to imagine Ubuntu devs routing a frontend through a frontend. | 09:01 |
| maco | theadmin: i can grab the source and check | 09:01 |
| Zerp64 | It isn't microsoft. | 09:01 |
| theadmin | maco: If you wanna... | 09:01 |
| theadmin | Zerp64: the whole Windows is a huge frontend to some mystery to me :P | 09:02 |
| maco | theadmin: yes, its using python-apt, just like update-manager | 09:02 |
| maco | theadmin: theyre written by the same guy, so this seemed likely ;-) | 09:03 |
| theadmin | maco: However, if i run update-manager dude and then attempt to run Synaptic it states "Another Synaptic is running in non-interactive mode, please wait for it to finish first" | 09:03 |
| AnRkey | how can i reserve a device name for my USB device so that it's always got the same /dev/devicenamehere? | 09:03 |
| maco | theadmin: the old add/remove used synaptic, but thats because it was just synaptic's "simplified" view | 09:03 |
| maco | theadmin: no two apt-anythings can run at once | 09:03 |
| theadmin | maco: That I know. | 09:04 |
| maco | theadmin: so file a bug that the error message is inaccurate :P | 09:04 |
| Zerp64 | I've always wondered why that is... why you can't run two pkg managers at once. | 09:04 |

| magicstuff | hey everyone... | 09:05 |
| maco | theadmin: looking at synaptic's source, it appears to be that they just both use the same directory for their lock | 09:06 |

| alejandro | maco, first i accessed the directory where i wanted to create my file | 09:23 |
| psycho_oreos | luck, "/join #ubuntu-cn" (without quotes) | 09:23 |
| alejandro | i did sudo mkdir | 09:24 |
| maco | theadmin: its a macro that means "the last command" | 09:24 |
| magicstuff | doesn't show a wlan() | 09:24 |
| theadmin | maco: Oh. | 09:24 |
| maco | theadmin: it should be in "man bash" i think | 09:24 |
| alejandro | maco, when i look there is a lock on it, does that mean i need to set permission to the folder to view the files? | 09:24 |
| psycho_oreos | magicstuff, not in iwconfig? | 09:24 |
| luck | thank you | 09:24 |
| magicstuff | yes it does in that | 09:24 |
| luck | yes | 09:24 |
| psycho_oreos | magicstuff, so if its listed in there, it means that there is already wlan0 interface | 09:25 |
| magicstuff | ok | 09:25 |
| magicstuff | Confused on how its not showing in network connections... | 09:25 |
| magicstuff | like when you select a network (eth/wlan/etc) | 09:25 |
| maco | alejandro: i dont know. i dont know how the graphical thing displays permissions. what if you do "sudo ls /directory "? | 09:25 |
| sharperguy | Anyone know of an app that can assist in splitting long videos into chunks that can be uploaded to video sites with vidio length restrictions? | 09:26 |
| maco | theadmin: from "man bash": !! Refer to the previous command. This is a synonym for `!-1'. | 09:26 |
| psycho_oreos | magicstuff, right click on it and see if Enable wireless box is checked | 09:26 |
| alejandro | maco, i see what i did, i created the new folder in my filesystem | 09:26 |
| alejandro | maco, in wrong directory | 09:26 |
| theadmin | maco: Hm, so "!-3" would reffer to a command that was launched 3 commands ago? | 09:26 |
| magicstuff | psycho_oreos: nope | 09:26 |
| maco | theadmin: yep | 09:26 |
| psycho_oreos | magicstuff, meaning it isn't checked? if not then check it | 09:26 |
| magicstuff | no its not listed | 09:27 |
| magicstuff | no option for that | 09:27 |
| geekphreak | theadmin: you can just type history to get number :) | 09:27 |
| geekphreak | then !number | 09:27 |
| maco | geekphreak: yeah but if you know "2nd to last thing i did" then "!-2" is faster | 09:27 |
| theadmin | geekphreak: Yeah, history is a command which returns huge output :D No idea how to clear it even | 09:27 |
| magicstuff | I'm using the network monitor that you can get from "add to panel" | 09:27 |
| geekphreak | maco sure is :) | 09:27 |
| psycho_oreos | magicstuff, use networkmanager | 09:28 |
| geekphreak | theadmin: clear command ;) | 09:28 |
| igoryonya | where is the location of main menu config files? | 09:28 |
| maco | theadmin: you can clear the terminal by typing "clear" ... you could also send history to a pager so it doesnt hog the screen when its done using "history | less" | 09:28 |
| magicstuff | how do I get networkmanager? | 09:28 |
| theadmin | maco: No, i want to erase the history, how would i go about that? It currently has around 2000 lines and scrolling trough that is a pain | 09:29 |
| psycho_oreos | !networkmanager | magicstuff | 09:29 |
| ubottu | magicstuff: networkmanager is an application to make (wireless) networking Just Work. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/NetworkManager | 09:29 |
| maco | theadmin: history -c | 09:30 |
| theadmin | maco: ty | 09:30 |
| magicstuff | psycho_oreos: checked add/remove and I have it | 09:30 |
| psycho_oreos | magicstuff, so I think you need to add nm-applet | 09:31 |
| theadmin | maco: also, "clear" doesn't actually "clear" the terminal, it just outputs a ton of empty lines. What actually would "clear" it is "reset" | 09:31 |
| maco | theadmin: well it looks clear... :P | 09:31 |
| IanBaliadJr | KVM is better than vBox or VMware? | 09:31 |
| maco | theadmin: however much area is visible gets cleared | 09:31 |
| magicstuff | psycho_oreos: how do I do that? | 09:31 |
| psycho_oreos | magicstuff, much like you add new items to the panel, you just look for network manager or nm, etc | 09:32 |
| magicstuff | when I try to find it in the panel thing, its not there..the only thing is network monitor | 09:32 |
| chandru_in | I have a compaq presario laptop which has a weird way for using F* keys. It needs Fn key to be held for the standard function keys while not needing it for the special functionalities. Is there a way to swap this behavior. | 09:32 |
| chandru_in | I'd like not having to hold the Fn key everytime I want to close a window, for example | 09:32 |
| psycho_oreos | magicstuff, try running nm-applet | 09:33 |
| theadmin | Hm, i think if something could "hold" the Fn key for you until you "hold" it manually, chandru_in... But no idea what does so | 09:34 |
| magicstuff | hmm | 09:34 |
| khunter619 | How to disable/enable Drivers - like in Windows? | 09:34 |
| tommy^m | khunter619: modprobe | 09:34 |
| IanBaliadJr | KVM is better than vBox or VMware? | 09:35 |
| magicstuff | psycho_oreos: applet_dbus_manager_start_service(): could not acquire the networkmanagerusersettings service as it is already taken. return: 3 | 09:35 |
| theadmin | btw fn+f1 (the "Suspend" key) does not work, neither does fn+f7 (switch display on/off) | 09:35 |
| magicstuff | then | 09:35 |
| xSnooPx | hi ppl | 09:35 |
| theadmin | IanBaliadJr: Depends on your prefference, but the box is my favorite | 09:35 |
| khunter619 | tommy^m: I have to go to Terminal and then modprobe? | 09:35 |
| tommy^m | khunter619: yes, as root | 09:35 |
| chandru_in | theadmin: Do you perchance know any applet/app which can do that? | 09:35 |
| magicstuff | psycho_oreos: glib-gobject-critical **:g_object_unref: assertion 'g_is_object(failed)' failed | 09:35 |
| tommy^m | khunter619: command lsmod will show you all the modules that are loaded | 09:36 |
| === MouseCooking is now known as MouseEating | ||
| theadmin | chandru_in: Told you, i don't. Also, this behaviour is very strange. Does it behave the same way on other systems? Cause mehaz a feeling it's some kinda keyboard driver/layout bug | 09:36 |
| tommy^m | modprobe MODULENAME to load a module | 09:36 |
| tommy^m | modprobe -r MODULENAME to unload | 09:36 |
| psycho_oreos | magicstuff, hmm try running nm | 09:36 |
| khunter619 | tommy^m: thank you | 09:36 |
| tommy^m | khunter619: np | 09:37 |
| chandru_in | no theadmin it is the same on all compaq presario CQ62 systems | 09:37 |
| IanBaliadJr | theadmin: thx | 09:37 |
| theadmin | chandru_in: Well, that's just stupid | 09:37 |
| magicstuff | psycho_oreos: nm: 'a.out': no such file | 09:37 |
| elyob | Hi, out of interest .. is my sendmail compromised? Am getting loads of activity and quite a few sendmail MTA's running. e.g. "sendmail: MTA: ./o36CBIn3009441 online.unaerp.br.: user open" | 09:37 |
| elyob | I hardly use sendmail, so will probably just remove it. | 09:37 |
| geekphreak | elyob: it could be other apps using it too | 09:38 |
| geekphreak | logs do looks wierd though , thats a .br domain | 09:38 |
| geekphreak | i would lock it host file | 09:38 |
| geekphreak | create rules | 09:38 |
| hotxboy1S | backlight issue | 09:40 |
| === comp3 is now known as ani | ||
| elyob | geekphreak: could you explain a little more? I've removed squid and sendmail for now. Was just playing about, but could be issues, and was on a blacklist for open relays :) | 09:40 |
| psycho_oreos | magicstuff, which version of ubuntu is this? | 09:40 |
| magicstuff | psycho_oreos: ok now I got some of the icons back that I didn't have...googled the above error..and it said something about add to panel-notification area... | 09:41 |
| magicstuff | so now I can see the original wireless thing...enable networking is checked...enable wireless is not checked and can't be checked | 09:41 |
| geekphreak | elyob: can i pm as it aint a ubuntu issue ? | 09:41 |
| elyob | geekphreak: yes please. | 09:42 |
| hotxboy1S | backlight control not working how to fix this? | 09:42 |
| psycho_oreos | magicstuff, which version of ubuntu | 09:42 |
| magicstuff | 8.04 I think? | 09:42 |
| theadmin | magicstuff: to make sure, do "lsb_release -r" in terminal | 09:43 |
| magicstuff | whats the term command to find the version? | 09:43 |
| psycho_oreos | magicstuff, do lsb_release -c | 09:43 |
| geekphreak | magicstuff: version of what? | 09:43 |
| hotxboy1S | greetings | 09:43 |
| elyob | geekphreak: sorry, one sec .. never PM'd before ... "You must log in with services to message this user" | 09:43 |
| magicstuff | geekphreak: ubuntu | 09:43 |
| khunter619 | tommy^m: command lsmod will show all modules that are loaded. I have a internal Wifi chip - Atheros AR2427. Since Ubuntu did not show list of wifi networks available, I assumed Ubuntu doesn't have driver by default? I am trying to see if that is true by enabling it; incase it made a mistake and did not enable it; you know sometimes we unplug and replug a USB Wifi dongle for OS to recognize if OS started with it connected. So I | 09:43 |
| magicstuff | theadmin and psycho_oreos: which command should I use | 09:44 |
| magicstuff | - r or - c? | 09:44 |
| theadmin | elyob: Please do "/msg nickserv help register" | 09:44 |
| hotxboy1S | anyone knows the backlight control? | 09:44 |
| hceylan | what is the package contains "Lucida TypeWriter" font? | 09:44 |
| geekphreak | elyob: yes it is a security thing elyob , only reg. peoople can pm me , 1 sec | 09:44 |
| theadmin | magicstuff: -r prints smth like "Release: 9.10", -c prints "Codename: Karmic" or similar | 09:44 |
| psycho_oreos | magicstuff, whichever one, doesn't matter | 09:44 |
| magicstuff | intrepid | 09:44 |
| magicstuff | so 8.10 | 09:44 |
| geekphreak | try now | 09:44 |
| hotxboy1S | my laptop screen is very dim. | 09:45 |
| psycho_oreos | magicstuff, probably a good idea to try jaunty jackalope | 09:45 |
| hotxboy1S | no use of the backlight control how to fix this fucking problem? | 09:45 |
| magicstuff | under the network manager its showing wireless is disabled | 09:45 |
| geekphreak | psycho_oreos: is he talking bout uname commnand? | 09:46 |
| hceylan | hotxboy1S: if you are using KDE, click on the battery image on the notification panel | 09:46 |
| psycho_oreos | geekphreak, no I wanted to know which version of ubuntu he has because he has issues getting wireless to work | 09:46 |
| theadmin | hotxboy1S: Check out System - Preferences - Power Management | 09:47 |
| hotxboy1S | hceylan: I`m on Gnome. | 09:47 |
| khunter619 | command lsmod will show all modules that are loaded. I have a internal Wifi chip - Atheros AR2427. Since Ubuntu did not show list of wifi networks available, I assumed Ubuntu doesn't have driver by default? I am trying to see if that is true by enabling it; incase it made a mistake and did not enable it; you know sometimes we unplug and replug a USB Wifi dongle for OS to recognize if OS started with it connected. So I am assumi | 09:47 |
| psycho_oreos | magicstuff, chances are, there's an issue with the driver/microcode.. and it'll be a daunting job for you to not be able to copy paste complete dmesg output :p | 09:47 |
| geekphreak | psycho_oreos: ok :) | 09:48 |
| magicstuff | psycho_oreos: I'm charging my camera up to use the chip to pastebin stuff | 09:48 |
| magicstuff | arg | 09:48 |
| hotxboy1S | theadmin: tried that failed. | 09:48 |
| theadmin | hotxboy1S: But there is a brightness setting over there %) | 09:48 |
| psycho_oreos | magicstuff, better yet, why not try jackalope, why must it be intrepid? | 09:48 |
| theadmin | I still don't get what's the proper way to say: Gnome or GNOME? | 09:48 |
| ikonia | theadmin: don't worry about it | 09:49 |
| przemek_ | chciałem odpalic age of empire na wine i mi bład jakis bug wykazało o co chodzi ;/. wczesniej nie było tego czegos, | 09:49 |
| psycho_oreos | theadmin, doesn't really matter, its most likely Gnome | 09:49 |
| ikonia | !pl | przemek_ | 09:49 |
| ubottu | przemek_: Na tym kanale używamy tylko języka angielskiego. Możesz uzyskać pomoc w języku polskim na #ubuntu-pl. | 09:49 |
| psycho_oreos | !pl | przemek_ | 09:49 |
| psycho_oreos | bleh | 09:49 |
| hotxboy1S | theadmin: no brightness control here. ubuntu failed to recognize my brightness keystrokes. | 09:49 |
| theadmin | hotxboy1S: Then it is most likely a display driver problem, no idea how to fix | 09:50 |
| hotxboy1S | any idea how to fix a backlight control problem? | 09:50 |
| hotxboy1S | tried xev no keycode of my special keys. | 09:51 |
| ikonia | hotxboy1S: is the backlight control normally managed by a function key combination ? | 09:51 |
| theadmin | ikonia: It is for me, for instance, and it works. Fn+{f5|f6} | 09:52 |
| hotxboy1S | how to check if the drivers installed properly? | 09:52 |
| igoryonya | Currently (in gconf editor), my /desktop/gnome/applications/window_manager/current = metacity | 09:52 |
| magicstuff | psycho_oreos: the one thing I get with dmesg in regards to wlan is addrconf(netdev_up): wlan0: link is not ready | 09:52 |
| igoryonya | and: /desktop/gnome/applications/window_manager/default = /usr/bin/compiz | 09:52 |
| igoryonya | If I switch the values in those keys around to make compiz the current, will i indup in unloadable gnome desktop after boot, or I will be fine, and if it will become unloadable, where are the text files that I can change this back, from the command line if I will be stuck in the console, so I can get back to GUI. | 09:52 |
| FloodBot2 | igoryonya: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 09:52 |
| ikonia | hotxboy1S: is the backlight control normally managed by a function key combination ? | 09:52 |
| psycho_oreos | magicstuff, yeah that's probably because its managed by network manager or some other applet like wicd | 09:53 |
| pblayo | #avsp | 09:53 |
| hotxboy1S | While Windows has a device management to check what about Ubuntu? | 09:53 |
| ikonia | hotxboy1S: is the backlight control normally managed by a function key combination ? | 09:53 |
| magicstuff | also... | 09:53 |
| theadmin | hotxboy1S: Well, if of hardware something doesn't work then it is most likely a driver problem. Also, reply to ikonia's question | 09:53 |
| magicstuff | psycho_oreos: iwl3945: radio frequency kill switch is on (think thats the driver) | 09:54 |
| bronto2 | is there a way to linx ldap auth directly to system users? | 09:54 |
| magicstuff | Kill switch must be turned off for wireless networking to work | 09:54 |
| bronto2 | link* | 09:54 |
| psycho_oreos | magicstuff, hmm sounds like you have a function key you have to press to enable or maybe in BIOS | 09:54 |
| theadmin | bronto2: lol i thought you wanted to add some kind of auth to the Lynx :/ | 09:54 |
| hotxboy1S | OK I`m a n00b. | 09:55 |
| magicstuff | ok.. | 09:55 |
| magicstuff | flipped the switch | 09:55 |
| bronto2 | theadmin, i'am trying to basically setup a lil intranet wiki, and i see it does support ldap, but can ldap be easily configure to just use posix system users? | 09:55 |
| magicstuff | what the freak!!!! | 09:56 |
| hotxboy1S | theadmin: what do u mean? I can use compiz 3D and play 720P video. | 09:56 |
| magicstuff | I had been flipping the switch back and forth trying to get wireless to work..and now it just works... | 09:56 |
| theadmin | hotxboy1S: Well, uh, that is the video driver, not the display driver. Or i'm a noob. | 09:56 |
| magicstuff | methinks it was because I finally got the network monitor thing that has the @enable wireless@ thing a ma bob | 09:56 |
| brahmana|web | Hi all, | 09:57 |
| syx | hi barhmanal | 09:57 |
| magicstuff | thanks for the help psycho_oreos: | 09:58 |
| theadmin | brahmana|web: Hi. | 09:58 |
| psycho_oreos | magicstuff, no worries | 09:58 |
| crash1hd | hmm I had to reinstall windows and now I can no longer connect to my ubuntu box through putty says I am missing a ppk file | 09:58 |
| bronto2 | whats the wallpaper package to get wallpapers from lynx? | 09:58 |
| crash1hd | I dont seem to have this file anywhere backed up\ | 09:59 |
| theadmin | crash1hd: We don't support Windows here. | 09:59 |
| brahmana|web | Hardy backports contain packages newer than those that were released | 09:59 |
| brahmana|web | Sorry.. pressed enter by mistake. | 09:59 |
| geekphreak | back :) | 09:59 |
| crash1hd | theadmin, funny but the issue i am having is with the ssh ppk file for ubuntu not windows | 09:59 |
| ssh | hello | 09:59 |
| ssh | hi | 09:59 |
| brahmana|web | Hardy backports repository contains packages newer than those that were available when hardy was released. Am I right? | 10:00 |
| Gorlist | morning, im trying to use my ubuntu one for the first time. Ive created an account, and from ubuntu opened "ubuntu one" and activiated this pc when the webpage appears | 10:00 |
| Gorlist | however the cloud symbol changes when connecting then returns to a error state? | 10:01 |

| motgra | hey I just installed the flash plugin and the video is working great but I am not getting any audio from any flash source | 10:01 |
| khunter619 | I tar zxvf madwifi-0.9.4.tar.gz, then I cd into madwifi-0.9.4, then I used command: make | 10:02 |
| halfie | hi, are there any robust alternatives to offllineimap program? | 10:02 |
| khunter619 | THen I unplugged my USB wireless to see if my Internal Wifi card worked | 10:03 |
| khunter619 | It did not | 10:03 |
| psycho_oreos | khunter619, madwifi doesn't support atheros USB | 10:03 |
| theadmin | khunter619: You just compiled something and thought something would magically work? Files must be copied to their correspondent directories, usually this is done with "sudo make install". But since psycho_oreos said it does not support it, better not even try | 10:04 |
| theadmin | halfie: What it does? Might well think of something if i know the purpose | 10:05 |
| psycho_oreos | adding more fuel to fire, is that if there's a driver already loaded for the device or there's a driver that handles the corresponding device-id, if it matches with the newly installed driver, the result would look ugly | 10:05 |
| halfie | theadmin: ohh it downloads mail from IMAP servers | 10:05 |
| halfie | and then I read mail using mutt | 10:05 |
| theadmin | broadcast message from theadmin@freenode : leaving soon | 10:06 |
| theadmin | XD | 10:06 |
| hotxboy1S | any american here? | 10:06 |
| magicstuff | yep | 10:07 |
| hotxboy1S | magicstuff: hi. | 10:07 |
| khunter619 | psycho_oreos: where would I find wireless driver folder? i.e. where all drivers are there? so I can delete it? | 10:07 |
| hotxboy1S | any pro here? | 10:08 |
| maco | !ask | hotxboy1S | 10:08 |
| ubottu | hotxboy1S: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 10:08 |
| magicstuff | hey | 10:08 |
| theadmin | halfie: Oh my, sorry, never used mail clients not to speak of downloaders | 10:08 |
| theadmin | maco: Wrong !thing | 10:08 |
| magicstuff | pro what? | 10:08 |
| theadmin | ubottu: anyone | hotxboy1S | 10:08 |
| ubottu | hotxboy1S: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? | 10:08 |
| magicstuff | I'm a Pro crastinator! | 10:08 |
| psycho_oreos | khunter619, and why would you want to do that? | 10:08 |
| maco | theadmin: hrm yeah that one | 10:08 |
| khunter619 | psycho_oreos: to put updated drivers? | 10:09 |
| psycho_oreos | khunter619, from madwifi? it won't cause errors if you're on a fairly recent version of ubuntu | 10:09 |
| hotxboy1S | maco: how to get backlight control work on ubuntu? | 10:09 |
| geekphreak | halfie: hello | 10:11 |
| geekphreak | halfie: you want console based apps or gui? | 10:11 |
| hotxboy1S | ubottu: how to get backlight control work on ubuntu? | 10:11 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 10:11 |
| halfie | geekphreak: anything that works reliably offline | 10:11 |
| geekphreak | halfie: i use thunderbird, works great :) | 10:11 |
| raevol | is there some repository i can get libstdc++5 from and not have a locally installed package? | 10:12 |
| khunter619 | psycho_oreos: ok just a clarification: I googled: Atheros AR2427 linux. I went to second result: www.atheros.cz. I clicked Linux where my driver was listed, and then it sent me to madwifi. http://www.google.com/custom?hl=en&client=pub-9300639326172081&cof=FORID%3A13%3BAH%3Aleft%3BCX%3AUbuntu%25209%252E10%3BL%3Ahttp%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com%2Fintl%2Fen%2Fimages%2Flogos%2Fcustom_search_logo_sm.gif%3BLH%3A30%3BLP%3A1%3BLC%3A%230000f | 10:12 |
| halfie | geekphreak: maybe I should switch to it too :D | 10:12 |
| theadmin | geekphreak: Didn't it have a bug which deleted all messages after downloading them? | 10:12 |
| hotxboy1S | shout back. | 10:12 |
| geekphreak | theadmin: i had np here :) | 10:12 |
| theadmin | geekphreak: now playing? | 10:12 |
| psycho_oreos | khunter619, is this for atheros USB or not atheros USB? | 10:13 |
| geekphreak | playing? | 10:13 |
| hotxboy1S | horse riding. | 10:13 |
| theadmin | geekphreak: "np" stands for "now playing", no? | 10:13 |
| geekphreak | no problems | 10:13 |
| theadmin | geekphreak: Oh. | 10:13 |
| marlena | maginot new xorg.conf doesnt work, keeps me on login screen, cant make it to desktop | 10:13 |
| khunter619 | psycho_oreos: Not USB; this is Internal card (inside the laptop) | 10:13 |
| psycho_oreos | khunter619, and you should have wlan0 interface no? | 10:13 |
| maginot | marlena, so use the tty (CTRL+ALT+F2) | 10:13 |
| theadmin | maginot: Why did you preffer the second one? lol | 10:14 |
| khunter619 | psycho_oreos: wlan0 interface? | 10:14 |
| marlena | maginot, done that and restored previous version | 10:14 |
| psycho_oreos | khunter619, under iwconfig | 10:14 |
| maco | theadmin: the first one sometimes fills up wtih junk from boot and random things that dont get logged right | 10:14 |
| khunter619 | 1 sec | 10:14 |
| theadmin | maco: Ah, indeed... | 10:15 |
| * theadmin has to leave now. Sorry. | 10:15 | |
| marlena | maginot, but it's still 1280x960 instead of 1280x1024 | 10:15 |
| maginot | theadmin, just to guarantee that is a free tty, I have saw already gdm using first tty (my own distro works this way) | 10:15 |

| Demiurge | I mounted a volume the wrong way, so when I thought I was moving files to it they didn't end up on the volume but in /proc/<#>/cwd(searched for the files). Then I did the rest wrong and corrected the volume mount, and somehow caused the cwd folder in /proc to disappear(/proc/<#> is still there). So I can't find the files anymore. / is still low on space though, which was the reason I discovered the bad mount, so I guess the files are still out there? Pro | 10:30 |
| Demiurge | blem is I can't find them. | 10:30 |

| psycho_oreos | khunter619, 1) why are you running it again? 2) depmod requires root privileges, without it or using sudo for example renders not doable | 10:39 |
| khunter619 | psycho_oreos: wait sudo give admin privileges to all commands so that means depmod -a was done successfully when done with sudo depmod -a? | 10:39 |
| psycho_oreos | khunter619, the other way round | 10:40 |
| khunter619 | psycho_oreos: so depmod -a is done right? (there was no verbose output) | 10:41 |

| xerophyte | does anybody know how can i get flash workig with chrome .. i mean i have create plugins folder and put the libflashplayer in the plugin folder and started the chrome /opt/google/chrome/google-chrome --enable-plugins %U its still not working i am running 10.04 | 11:14 |
| psycho_oreos | !lucid | xerophyte | 11:15 |
| ubottu | xerophyte: Lucid Lynx is the codename for Ubuntu 10.04, due April 29th, 2010 - Lucid is NOT released and is NOT stable - Discussion and support only in #ubuntu+1 - Development Schedule: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LucidReleaseSchedule | 11:15 |
| khunter619 | psycho_oreos: I use that dongle on my big PC...trying to get a 4 way handshake...I am planning to leave my netbook on for 24-48 hours | 11:15 |
| khunter619 | psycho_oreos: my big PC has no integrated wireless | 11:16 |
| psycho_oreos | khunter619, well, if you want it to work with aircrack-ng, expect to get your hands dirty | 11:17 |
| khunter619 | psycho_oreos: It was my understanding that madwifi & aircrack-ng work together? i.e. most people use madwifi drivers with aircrack-ng? | 11:18 |
| psycho_oreos | khunter619, madwifi-ng is an older driver way back before ath5k came about. ath5k would simplify a fair amount of work that was once related to getting things to work with madwifi-ng | 11:19 |
| psycho_oreos | they both work on different framework but ath5k is the future | 11:19 |

| sebsebseb | mtduv: Software Centre in 10.04, gets a popular/recommend software section. April 29th is the release | 11:27 |

| mtduv | so there is nothing like it atm? | 11:28 |
| CuriosTiger | I tried the 10.04 beta, but I had odd problems with input. Mouse clicks would stop working and require a forced reboot, for example. | 11:28 |
| sebsebseb | CuriosTiger: #ubuntu+1 is currently the 10.04 channel | 11:28 |
| CuriosTiger | Most likely, vmware tools will need an update to support 10.04 | 11:28 |
| CuriosTiger | sebsebseb: I'm not running it anymore. It was just a comment. :) | 11:28 |
| CuriosTiger | I went back to 9.10, which is rock solid for me. | 11:29 |
| sebsebseb | CuriosTiger: ok well off topic then :D | 11:29 |

| mtduv | well, there always seems to be a set of software that people find useful such as other terminal applications and irc applications | 11:32 |
| marlena | maginot, had to reinstall xserver-org | 11:32 |
| maginot | marlena, I told to remove any xorg.conf file, not x* files.. | 11:32 |

| marlena | maginot, yeah but I had so many copies... | 11:33 |
| marlena | maginot, and did some overkill | 11:33 |
| maginot | marlena, but only xorg.conf had to be removed, not xorg.conf.otherthings | 11:33 |
| sebsebseb | mtduv: Konversation :) KDE app though, so if you haven't already got KDE stuff on, it will want to put on quite a bit. Anyway Ubuntu isn't Windows, so as long as your partition is reasoanbly sized, you don't need to worry about apps taking up loads of space. | 11:33 |
| marlena | maginot, it was stupid but it happend | 11:34 |
| maginot | marlena, well, if you want to try, this is the last tip I have: http://pastebin.com/KHEYg7hs | 11:34 |
| sebsebseb | mtduv: there are a few terminal apps, but they all use bash | 11:34 |
| maginot | marlena, its strange not working | 11:34 |
| sebsebseb | mtduv: or most of them anyway | 11:34 |
| marlena | maginot, tried it, doesnt work | 11:34 |
| mtduv | sebsebseb: thanks a lot for the help | 11:35 |
| maginot | marlena, okay and without any xorg.conf (just without this UNIQUE file) ? | 11:35 |
| sebsebseb | maginot: ok np | 11:35 |
| marlena | maginot, now only the very first config I made works, none of yours (which previously worked) isnt working anymore | 11:35 |
| mtduv | i was just sad to see the rating system was gone | 11:35 |
| mtduv | seemed useful | 11:35 |
| sebsebseb | maginot: wrong one. ok np mtduv | 11:35 |
| marlena | maginot, I'll try again without xorg.conf | 11:36 |
| conb123 | Is there a directory where all the .desktop files for the main menu are kept? | 11:36 |
| maginot | marlena, yes, you X11 server must be able to auto configure itself | 11:36 |
| theadmin | Can i somehow change the desktop background with the terminal? (GNOME) | 11:39 |
| micheil | Hey, is 10.04 server a LTS release? | 11:40 |
| theadmin | micheil: Yep | 11:40 |
| nimrod10 | theadmin, look at the feh binary | 11:40 |

| theadmin | nimrod10: Tells me it ain't installed | 11:40 |

| nimrod10 | theadmin there is also a app called wally that will do that for you | 11:42 |
| maginot | marlena, well.... sorry, but those xorgs files I gave you (from the first) were to be enough =/ | 11:43 |

| brijith | pagore:yes.. search in synaptic ... search the word | 11:54 |
| brijith | pagore:yes that ubuntu-restricted-extras | 11:54 |
| brijith | pagore:install it | 11:54 |
| smerz | and nothing needs to be done on the sources from a default install if i remember correctly | 11:54 |

| freazor | auriza: I didnt forget it .. I never used it or ubuntu never asked me for entering my root pass | 12:27 |
| ddavids | auriza: thanks, 9.10 - check finished: errors found in 3 files... corrupted too. do u have any ideas wht causes that? | 12:28 |
| auriza | freazor: Ubuntu asks for root password at first installation | 12:28 |
| auriza | ddavids: maybe just bad CD, I always left in ISO image just in case my CD is corrupted | 12:29 |
| ortsvorsteher | freazor, you dont need to bee root. you can use sudo. also it is possible to be root as type in terminal sudo i | 12:29 |
| ortsvorsteher | "sudo -i" | 12:29 |
| mertle | freazor: the password for sudo is the one you login with - that is the same as root | 12:30 |
| freazor | oh nice sudo -i works .. thx | 12:30 |
| freazor | but when i do su only and enter the same pass i login with it doesnt work | 12:30 |
| auriza | su needs root password | 12:31 |

| bazhang | drow_, please watch the language | 13:59 |
| Urda | Question: How can I verify that since I just rebooted with my new harddrive sdb configured, that it mounted correctly? | 13:59 |
| kwtm | Thanks bazhang, geekphreak. | 13:59 |
| Pirate_Hunter | just added another network card to the system however I have no clue which is the new network card, how do I find out in a server environment? | 14:00 |
| An_Ony_Moose | Urda, run mount in a terminal and see if it's in the list with the correct mountpoint ;) | 14:00 |

| bullgard | scp responds: "The authenticity of host '<hostname>(IP-Adresse)' can't be established. RSA key fingerprint is <32-digit hex number>." How can I authenticate this fingerprint? | 14:05 |
| kwtm | If I install Ubuntu Studio (with the RT-kernel) and then install Kubuntu over it, will the next kernel upgrade overwrite the RT-kernel with the ordinary non-RT kernel from Kubuntu/Ubuntu? | 14:05 |
| kwtm | I want ordinary Kubuntu but with the RT kernel. | 14:05 |
| red2kic | drow_: New Ubuntu Installation? Did you check Hardware Drivers to see if there are any indications of your network card needed to be installed? Also, are you trying via wired or wireless? | 14:06 |
| drow_ | yeas all was fine | 14:06 |
| kwtm | bullgard: You need to make sure you know there's no security problem with the host. If this is your own machine, then you just say "yes". If it's someone else, you phone or text-message to get the RSA fingerprint. | 14:06 |
| geekphreak | tc guys | 14:06 |
| geekphreak | got to go, have fun all | 14:06 |
| bullgard | kwtm: If it was someone else's machine, how could he determine the fingerprint? | 14:07 |
| harry-houdini1 | can anyone tell me how to install rdesktop from svn I have downloaded it but i dont see how one actually compiles it...svn co https://rdesktop.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/rdesktop rdesktop | 14:07 |

| wactuary | I'm trying to install ubuntu on a brand new box. Both 10.04b1 and 9.10 are hanging on either direct installation or liveCD. But I only see the logo, so I can't see any errors or messages to know where the issue lies. Is there a way to install without the messages supressed? | 14:08 |
| joaopinto | harry-houdini1, why do you need it from svn ? | 14:08 |
| a_bug | hi guys ... a question please .. Suppose I have a byobu session ( or any other running command in its place ), and I want to attach it to a screen session, how can I do that ? | 14:09 |
| harry-houdini1 | joaopinto, cause it has sound support features not contained in the release version | 14:09 |
| joaopinto | ah ok | 14:09 |
| a_bug | basically, can I attach an already running command to a new screen ? | 14:09 |
| harry-houdini1 | there is three directories under rdesktop branches tags and trunk | 14:10 |
| joaopinto | harry-houdini1, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware | 14:10 |
| kwtm | bullgard: Hmm, web sites list a convoluted way to do it. I'm still looking for the easy way, but if I can't find it I'll tell you the complex way. | 14:10 |
| joaopinto | you want trunk, trunk is usually the source dir | 14:10 |
| bullgard | kwtm: Right. Is the program ssh-keygen a solution? | 14:11 |

| crunchbang | thank you | 14:12 |
| kwtm | bullgard: That's the one the web sites show. But I recall that, when there was a security flaw in sshd, Debian (and Ubuntu) gave a command that you could use to get the RSA key, without specifying the key file. (iirc) Still looking, but ssh-keygen -l seems to be the most common way. | 14:12 |
| funkwarrior | hi all, somebody can help to mount a raid disk? | 14:15 |
| kwtm | bullgard: tried using ssh-keygen -l, but it gave a different key on mine. So either the command is wrong or I've already been compromnised. :P | 14:15 |
| funkwarrior | I want try to backup data before sending the nas to repair.. | 14:15 |
| fumanchu182 | quick Q, did a update as per recommendation of system updates and now Namoroka is my default browser. I can't find any information about this on the ubuntu site. Is the default behavior to install this Alpha version? | 14:15 |
| Kre10s | how can i stop the window manageer | 14:16 |
| funkwarrior | but I'm not able to mount the partition | 14:16 |
| fumanchu182 | Kre10s: log out and choose a different windows session. | 14:16 |
| Kre10s | k | 14:17 |
| wactuary | funkwarrior, what have you tried? Have you done sudo mount <device> <dir>? | 14:17 |
| kwtm | bullgard: Okay, got it: you type "ssh-keygen -l", and then at the prompt you type "/etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key" | 14:17 |
| mertle | fumanchu182: which ubuntu? | 14:17 |
| kwtm | bullgard: Not sure why this can't be all on the command-line, but there you have it. WIsh I could find that other command, though. | 14:17 |
| fumanchu182 | or sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop | 14:17 |
| fumanchu182 | mertle: Karmic | 14:18 |
| mertle | k | 14:18 |
| kwtm | wactuary: Anyone answer your question yet? | 14:18 |
| fumanchu182 | I just want to make sure a repo I added in sources.list isn't doing anything funny. | 14:18 |
| wactuary | not yet. | 14:18 |
| a_bug | hi guys, is there a way to attach an already running program to a screen session ? | 14:19 |
| kwtm | wactuary: In case no: I *think* you can press Ctrl-Alt-F1 or c-a-F2 or c-a-F3, etc. to find a screen that's not the splash screen but the actual messages scrolling up. | 14:19 |
| kwtm | wactuary: You actually only need Alt-F1/2/3 etc. but Ctrl-Alt will work whether or not you've switched to graphical X Window mode. | 14:19 |
| joaopinto | fumanchu182, did you upgrade to lucid ? | 14:20 |
| wactuary | kwtm: let me try that. I thought I had, but it was last night. brb. | 14:20 |
| bullgard | kwtm: These two fingerprints are not identical mith me. | 14:20 |
| kwtm | wactuary: try c-a-F4, too. There are usually 6 text screens and then c-a-F7 is graphical, and I've seen boot messages up to screen 4, although usually it's screen 1 or 2. Can't remember what it is with Ubuntu. | 14:21 |
| bdfoster | heyoh, need some networking advice | 14:21 |
| funkwarrior | *wactuary: sure | 14:21 |
| kwtm | bullgard: Maybe you can try ssh'ing into your own machine and checking the fingerprint, to make sure it's not an error in the instructions I gave. | 14:21 |
| bdfoster | is it better to have NAT on or off? i have a server (asterisk) that I would like to have open to a few users in the company | 14:22 |
| funkwarrior | rbut returned error is: mount: unknown file system type 'linux_raid_member' | 14:22 |
| angelia | I'm a greenhand!! Nice to meet you all | 14:22 |
| kwtm | bullgard: Chances of MITM is slim, and the ssh key is mostly to detect if there are any changes after you've been SSH'ing in daily for a month or something. Having said that, you should check fingerprint anyway, because otherwise it defeats the purpose! | 14:22 |

| fumanchu182 | Okay how can I trouble shoot this, is there a log. | 14:26 |
| joaopinto | fumanchu182, how did you upgrade ? | 14:26 |
| fumanchu182 | I got a notice from Update Manager. | 14:26 |

| Pici | melter: You can also use aptitude changelog packagename Also, apt-listchanges is nice if you want to see better changelogs than what gets published to changelogs.ubuntu.com (sometimes the publishing lags behind when the actual package is published) | 14:51 |

| kushalone | genii: Unsupported command :( | 14:52 |
| geekphreak | ubuntu how is it related to ubuntu? | 14:52 |
| genii | kushalone: What IRC client are you using? | 14:53 |
| geekphreak | kushalone: which client? | 14:53 |
| kwtm | bullgard: Basically, you use "ssh-keygen -t rsa", but my script gives a way to replicate it if you want. | 14:53 |
| kushalone | Empathy :/ | 14:53 |
| kushalone | not really an IRC client | 14:53 |
| linenoise | So, I have some mp3's and a video that play at low volume. I crank my receiver so I can hear the movie and the system sounds sound like thunder (super absurdly loud). I can't put any of the sliders in mplayer/aumix/alsamix up any higher. I did not have this problem with alsa (went from an alsa based debian box to karmic) | 14:53 |
| overmind | kushalone: Use a real IRC client, or wenchat.freenode.net | 14:53 |
| yinlong | who is good at tomcat? | 14:53 |
| overmind | kushalone: sorry, webchat.freenode.net | 14:53 |
| kushalone | yeah, I am heading over to firefox | 14:53 |
| geekphreak | kushalone: on main empthy app, u can click join room | 14:53 |
| kwtm | bullgard: $OTHER_MACHINE is either name or ip address. Also, they say don't put a password on the id_rsa.pub, just for convenience. | 14:53 |
| ubuntu | geekphreak: wasn't sure if I'd get help here or if this is the correct room to ask that question | 14:53 |
| linenoise | Is there an easy way to nuke pulse and restore alsa? | 14:53 |
| elyob | geekphreak: Cheers .. taking a look | 14:54 |

| LinuxAdmin | I'm trying to configure nat in ufw, but it doesn't work | 14:55 |
| ubuntu | geekphreak? | 14:56 |
| kwtm | ubuntu: if it appears on /media/nameofdevice, then it would already be mounted (Ubuntu would do that automatically). Someone else might be able to tell you how to mount it. Only if the phone acts as a mass storage device; it might not. (YOu can't mount a webcam, for example.) | 14:56 |

| LinuxAdmin | I used slackware for years and used iptables for my firewall, but now I want to move to ufw | 14:59 |
| kwtm | LinuxAdmin: Post your lines in a pastebin, and then ask your question on 1 line. WHen you spread your questions over >1 line, other lines show up in between and people can't figure out what you're asking. You want help with NAT in ufw, right? | 14:59 |
| geekphreak | ubuntu try #electronics | 14:59 |
| geekphreak | i aint sure | 14:59 |
| ubuntu | thanks geekphreak | 14:59 |

| JesusFreak | Hello, I cannot get my wireless internet to work on ubntu!! | 15:00 |
| overmind | !ufw | LinuxAdmin | 15:00 |
| ubottu | LinuxAdmin: Ubuntu, like any other Linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW), or 'iptables' (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo). GUI frontends such as Firestarter/Gufw (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE) also exist. | 15:00 |

| kwtm | umm... just to let you know, I'm a bit put off by the nick "JesusFreak". You have the right to any nickname you want, of course, but I'm just going to let others converse with you. Sorry, just my personal comfort level. | 15:01 |
| LinuxAdmin | but i like the simplicity of ufw, and want to move to it, but I've got "complex" iptables rules that I want to move also | 15:01 |

| BlaDe^ | It says Permission Denied - but the password is definitely correct | 15:03 |
| ubuntu | kwtm: someone took out the simm and put another one in T-Mobile I beleive, but with original simm it didn't work either | 15:03 |
| kwtm | Roasted: fastest way is probably text interface with ssh, but do you need a GUI? if so, then VNC (there are several variants) may be best bet. | 15:04 |
| Roasted | yeah, I need a gui. | 15:04 |
| Roasted | its very slow though, and I'm not even going outside my lan.... | 15:04 |
| kwtm | ubuntu: You're not giving info I need, so will try again one last time. What is the model of your Motorola phone? Example: I use a Palm Treo 650. What do you use? What is the machine that connects to your Ubuntu machine? | 15:05 |
| LinuxAdmin | it doesn't work | 15:05 |
| JesusFreak | OK so I cannot get my internet to work. It says it established a connection but then is gray and gets no signal. Please help! | 15:05 |
| al-tabq | how do i change that bookmarked places are not in a submenu of the places panel menu? | 15:05 |

| kwtm | Roasted: Are you using wireless? Do you know your connection speed? I am using "g" (I think it's 805.11g?) wireless and it works okay. | 15:07 |
| geekphreak | I/O error not good | 15:07 |
| coz_ | who was it that wanted to remove the gnome beep from xfce? | 15:07 |
| Roasted | kwtm, wireless on my laptop, wired on the server. wireless G, no congestion, very few people on it. and its slow. | 15:07 |
| kcw12 | geekphreak I know this, drive dieing? | 15:07 |
| LinuxAdmin | ok, I see can't get too much help here, thanks anyway | 15:07 |
| kwtm | Roasted: You know VNC will be slower than the real machine, right? It's also slower if you use full colours instead of 256 colours, slower if you scale, and slower if it's over a tunnelled connection. | 15:07 |
| Roasted | kwtm, see this server runs a web based GUI program so I kind of need the gui. | 15:07 |
| geekphreak | kcw12: backup data mate :) | 15:08 |
| kwtm | roasted: like, unusable slow? For example, my response lag time is about 0.5 to 1.0 seconds. | 15:08 |
| Roasted | kwtm, I understand, but I really need the desk space, and I dont use this server much but I need it to be somewhat use-able. | 15:08 |
| kcw12 | geekphreak i cant even get it to mount | 15:08 |
| Roasted | kwtm, when I click on "Places" in the menu, it shouldn't take a full 20 seconds to render "home, documents, downloads, music, pictures" etc | 15:08 |
| Tecna | IS there a way to control firefox through the terminal? (for example, tell it to save, or close) | 15:08 |
| Roasted | thats why Im irritated with vnc. | 15:08 |
| geekphreak | kcw12: how old is the drive? | 15:08 |
| mynick321 | Hi all | 15:08 |
| kcw12 | geekphreak gonna have to pull drive and get data off that way? 526ish days | 15:08 |
| mynick321 | Hi all | 15:09 |
| kwtm | Roasted: Oh, 20 seconds is way too slow, I agree. Beyond 2 seconds is probably utterly unusable. Beyond 1 second is "hard to use". Hmm... | 15:09 |
| kwtm | Roasted: What version of VNC are you using? x11vnc, I take it? | 15:09 |
| mynick321 | Hi all | 15:09 |

| blackxored | how can I have multiple desktops on a notebook with vga output ??? | 15:21 |
| researcher1 | ok | 15:21 |
| DasEi | researcher: sudo apt-get remove --purge AnyPaketHere | 15:21 |
| kwtm | researcher1: see what DasEi said in that line that contains a nick similar to your own. :) | 15:22 |
| DasEi | he, researcher1, , =) | 15:22 |
| dum | how do i sudo apt-get when behind a proxy... | 15:23 |
| researcher1 | I got this message when I tried to purge remastersys dpkg: unrecoverable fatal error, aborting: | 15:23 |
| researcher1 | unable to fill /var/lib/dpkg/updates/tmp.i with padding: No space left on device | 15:23 |
| william | Hi can anyone help me with a pakage manager error. My software updates keeps telling me to install xorg-driver-fglrx but it wont let me. IT reads the message | 15:23 |
| dum | seems like i can't download packages from command line using my proxy settings | 15:23 |
| DasEi | dum: basically the same, your network has to be set up correctly | 15:23 |
| theadmin | How can i determine file mime-type trough a terminal? | 15:23 |

| theadmin | Also, is it safe to create a shortcut to launch the terminal session as root> | 15:23 |
| theadmin | ?* | 15:24 |
| rajan_ | theadmin: Use file command. | 15:24 |

| dum | DasEi: well not the same.. cos it doesn't seem to work | 15:24 |
| DasEi | dum: transparent proxy ? | 15:24 |
| DasEi | dum : nat ? | 15:24 |
| LALFGM | kwtm: I will come in later and tell you the info what you asked. Will you be here later? | 15:24 |
| dum | DasEi: what are transparent proxies.. its a http proxy that acts as a firewall | 15:24 |
| DasEi | dum : can you call a webside, like google atm ? | 15:24 |
| kwtm | LALFGM: I don't come here that often. You might want to try Ubuntu Forums on the web, where: 1) more people can see because it's not just for people who are here right at this instant, and 2) others can get help from what you learned. | 15:25 |
| skrite99 | anyone know when beta2 of lynx is being released? | 15:25 |
| genii | william: Enable the "restricted" repository | 15:25 |
| kwtm | skrite99: TOMORROW!!! (Can't wait.) | 15:25 |
| Pici | skrite99: See the topic in #ubuntu+1 | 15:25 |
| DasEi | skrite: #ubuntu+1 | 15:25 |
| LALFGM | kwtm: how do I access the forums? | 15:25 |
| kwtm | skrite99: It will be release UbunTUMORROW. (joke, joke) | 15:26 |
| Guiri | Does anybody know anything about recroding digital video, or maybe doing screen splitting in Ubuntu? | 15:26 |
| DasEi | dum: does your browser work ? | 15:26 |
| skrite99 | Pici, DasEi, thanks | 15:26 |
| blackxored | how can I have multiple desktops on a notebook with vga output ??? | 15:26 |

| orangejuice | Hello, when I started my computer today I was left in the grub prompt as opposed booting up into ubuntu, now I am following the basis of the Grub2 recovery but it doesn't seem to work. I am getting the error: "No init found. Try passing init = bootarg" Any ideas? | 15:26 |
| dum | yes.. | 15:26 |
| skrite99 | kwtm, been waiting for my laptop install :) | 15:26 |
| orangejuice | basics* | 15:26 |
| dum | DasEi: i set authentication on browser and synaptic as well | 15:26 |
| geekphreak | brb | 15:26 |
| kwtm | LALFGM: Go to http://ubuntuforums.org/ and start with searching for posts that might help. If you can't find any, register as a new user, then post your question. | 15:27 |
| dum | DasEi: things just dont work from command line | 15:27 |
| DasEi | dum : so it seems more a firewall, err auth, need usr/pass for that proxy ? | 15:27 |
| kwtm | LALFGM: Don't forget to include the output of the command "nm-tool". It might take a few days to get all your questions answered, but the help is more thorough. I'm not that good at Ubuntu. | 15:27 |
| geekphreak | wow big list | 15:28 |
| dum | DasEi: huh? | 15:28 |
| DasEi | dum : what did you set in browser ? a username and pass for the proxy ? | 15:28 |
| researcher1 | How do I correct this error "dpkg: unrecoverable fatal error, aborting: unable to fill /var/lib/dpkg/updates/tmp.i with padding: No space left on device" I want to uninstall packages | 15:29 |
| DasEi | researcher1 : df -h , disk full ? | 15:29 |

| ubottu | ihernandez: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 15:30 |
| researcher1 | different partitions i guess.How to ascertain that? | 15:30 |
| researcher1 | Pici: different partitions i guess.How to ascertain that? | 15:30 |
| Pici | researcher1: Can you pastebin out output of df -h ? | 15:31 |
| ihernandez | just curious... is there some indicator plugin for thunderbird? | 15:31 |
| barrando | whatis the proper and reliable way to check if I'm connected to a router(switch) or not through cli? I'm with karmic, be assigned ip by dhcp | 15:31 |

| ihernandez | i'm trying the 10.04 beta1 and like the concept, but evolution is really not my favourite mail system | 15:31 |

| kingtiger | anyone active? | 15:32 |
| geekphreak | kingtiger: nope | 15:33 |
| Pici | barrando: You can sheck if you have an inet entry in ip addr show dev eth0 (or whatever you ethernet device is) | 15:33 |

| kwtm | researcher1: I too am curious about pastebin'd output of "df -h". Did you crash due to disk full or you're just getting around to it? | 15:33 |

| DasEi | dum : http://blog.mypapit.net/2006/02/how-to-use-apt-get-behind-proxy-server-ubuntudebian.html | 15:33 |
| sjorsr | that only shows your interface is up and has an ip-addres though, which doesn't guarantee you actually have a connection (like on these machines), but the concept is the same. | 15:33 |

| geekphreak | wow 0 lol | 15:34 |
| DasEi | researcher1 : anything in trash or a file you can easily delete ? | 15:34 |
| kwtm | researcher1: Like, you could probably uninstall OpenOffice and then reinstall it later. | 15:35 |
| researcher1 | yes I can delete anything for this moment | 15:35 |
| researcher1 | but u please see image also | 15:35 |
| geekphreak | researcher1: got any external drive? | 15:35 |
| sjorsr | ip addr show dev eth0 | grep -V inet6 | grep inet should give a result if your interface is up | 15:35 |
| sjorsr | and you have an ipv4 address | 15:35 |

| kwtm | DasEi: Yeah, I mean researcher1 needs to just plain "rm" something to free up a few megs. | 15:36 |

| DasEi | ubuntunewbie: hmm, I never did it on rmvb | 15:40 |
| geekphreak | hmm | 15:40 |
| geekphreak | researcher1: did you post the image? | 15:40 |
| ubuntunewbie | DasEi: oh | 15:40 |
| kwtm | tobi__: Oh. For that I'm not that familiar. I know you can use it, though... and it might not have all teh features of a KDE system if it's put into a GNOME system. | 15:41 |
| nocleader | An outgoing ping without a source IP defined would pick up the IP of the outbound interface correct?? .. not a secondary IP range on that outbound interface .... not some random loopback IP or other interface IP ... true? | 15:41 |
| researcher1 | geekphreak:http://imagebin.org/92058 | 15:41 |
| DasEi | ubuntunewbie: does it play in vlc (the original) ? | 15:41 |
| kwtm | researcher1: Personally, I think you just need to move a few files off to your pen drive first, or just plain delete some files. The disk analyzer report is almost irrelevant. | 15:41 |
| ubuntunewbie | DasEi: you mean the rmvb ? nope vlc doesn't support rmvb | 15:42 |
| researcher1 | what it is which I can safely delete without destabilising the system? | 15:42 |

| nocleader | opps ... wrong channel ....... | 15:43 |
| kwtm | researcher1: Okay, your home directory has 84GB of stuff. Surely there is SOMETHING you can delete. Do you know how to get to a terminal to delete? | 15:43 |
| researcher1 | ok | 15:43 |

| researcher1 | ok.done | 15:43 |
| DasEi | researcher1: cd ~/.local/share/Trash | 15:44 |
| DasEi | researcher1: ls | 15:44 |
| kwtm | researcher1: Find something that you can download another copy of, or something. Free up 100MB if you can, or even 10MB or 1MB. Then do "apt-get remove openofficve.org-core" or something. | 15:44 |
| researcher1 | just a moment let me follow u | 15:44 |
| DasEi | researcher1: sth in ? | 15:44 |

| ubuntunewbie | DasEi: Now I convert again without the -mc 0 -noskip -o | 15:45 |
| kwtm | wow, is this disk usage analyzer the default in Ubuntu (GNOME)? It doesn't look that useful. Install filelight (*AFTER* you remove OpenOffice!) and go with that. | 15:45 |
| kumar-kle | thanx kwtn.. i looki for a soln.. | 15:45 |
| kumar-kle | thanx kwtn.. i lookin for a soln.. | 15:45 |

| kwtm | researcher1: Is there a command, like, "empty the trash can" or something? (I use KDE, so I have a different system.) | 15:47 |
| researcher1 | kwtm:then after delete I will empty trash. Is it ok? | 15:47 |
| DasEi | kwtm: nope, and CAREful with rm, gone forever it is | 15:48 |
| kwtm | researcher1: Why don't you empty trash now? | 15:48 |
| researcher1 | ok | 15:48 |
| researcher1 | I emptied trash | 15:48 |
| kwtm | researcher1: Unless your trash is already empty (and you're still at 0 bytes!) | 15:48 |
| DasEi | researcher1 : rm is gone w/o trash, might need sudo for it on some files | 15:48 |

| blackxored | Dr_Willis, that's for nvidia | 15:57 |
| geekphreak | howelld: did you change your acount password? | 15:57 |
| howelld | No i haven't changed anything.. | 15:57 |
| BlaDe^ | can I disable CPU Frequency Scaling? | 15:57 |
| Dr_Willis | howelld: you set a blank password in the apps -> accessories -> password and keys.. tool. | 15:57 |
| DasEi | blackxored: you can stretch your desk in two different workspaces | 15:57 |
| BlaDe^ | It never lets my CPU run at 100% and things are going clunky atm. | 15:57 |
| blackxored | and how do you exactly do that?? | 15:57 |
| Dr_Willis | howelld: check the right click menus in that tool for a 'change password' item. you use it.. enter old password.. then just blank for the new one | 15:57 |
| kcw12 | geekphreak can i pm you? | 15:58 |
| howelld | ok thanks, let me try that. | 15:58 |

| scottder | Hey all, is there a way in 9.10 to have the middle mouse button paste use the gnome clipboard | 15:58 |
| DasEi | blackxored : nvidia ? | 15:58 |
| scottder | rather than x | 15:58 |
| researcher1 | geekfreak,DasEi:Yes I did it under your most valuable guidance | 15:59 |
| Dr_Willis | scottder: install one of the clipboard manager tools that exist.. theuy can sync the clipboard and selection buffers | 15:59 |
| islington | scottder: I dont think so, afaik that can be done only with a clipboard manager | 15:59 |
| DasEi | researcher1: apt running again ? | 15:59 |
| geekphreak | kcw12: go for it | 15:59 |
| researcher1 | yes | 15:59 |
| Sh3r1ff | pinoyoragon: invalid credentials, you have the correct password? ;) | 15:59 |
| Hollenthon | Can someone tell me please what do I do in this situation? | 15:59 |
| DasEi | researcher1: sudo apt-get remove --purge gnome-games openoffice* | 15:59 |
| researcher1 | yes Done | 16:00 |
| howelld | quit | 16:00 |
| researcher1 | so nice | 16:00 |
| researcher1 | it is creating good space | 16:00 |
| dum | DasEi: where can i add a start up script in ubuntu.. i would like to run a script each time my PC starts up | 16:00 |
| pinoyoragon | Sh3r1ff: last time i was asked for a password it worked, but when i issue that command, the same password don't work...btw it's my first time to setup ldap | 16:00 |
| DasEi | researcher1: time for a hot drink of your choice > disk management | 16:01 |
| erUSUL | Hollenthon: do you have third party repositories enabled or added? | 16:01 |
| Dr_Willis | dum: at boot time -> /etc/rc.local unless you mean when a user logs in. | 16:01 |
| researcher1 | what disk management? | 16:01 |
| researcher1 | whats that? | 16:01 |
| DasEi | dum : /etc/rc.local is one solution | 16:01 |
| Hollenthon | erUSUL, aaa I'm a new user, don't know how do I check that. | 16:01 |
| pop2 | Hi. XFCE4 crashes upon login, basically it's the blue swirly loading thing then black for a second then back at the login screen. I can login using openbox, but starting xfce4-session crashes everything again. I checked the log, xfdesktop: Fatal IO error 104 (Connection reset by peer) on X server :0.0. | 16:01 |
| geekphreak | kcw12: ?? | 16:01 |
| scottder | Dr_Willis: any recommendations on a clipboard manager? | 16:02 |
| erUSUL | Hollenthon: i would accept the install. probably some minor error with the mirror you are using | 16:02 |
| Hollenthon | erUSUL, I went to software sources and I have there multiverse enabled, if this helps. | 16:02 |
| Dr_Willis | scottder: i think theres only like 4 in thepackage manager.. try them out | 16:02 |
| scottder | Ok, thanks | 16:02 |
| pop2 | So I couldn't even get NetworkManager to show up in the panel, I found out that "sudo xfce4-session" actually does work. I'm in root's xfce4 account now apparently, though most of the stuff is my own | 16:02 |
| Hollenthon | erUSUL, Maybe if I change the repository I download from the problem would be resolved? | 16:02 |
| e-DIO-t | yo! | 16:02 |
| geekphreak | yo yo | 16:03 |
| dum | Dr_Willis: DasEi: thanks | 16:03 |
| DasEi | dum : kinda program ? services needed ? interactive ? | 16:03 |
| erUSUL | Hollenthon: you may want to try the main repositorie | 16:03 |
| Hollenthon | erUSUL, if I change to main server or United states ..server | 16:03 |
| geekphreak | researcher1: freed some space? | 16:03 |
| Dr_Willis | pop2: you proberly just goofed up a lot of permissions and ownership of files inyour users Home dir by doing that.. but they may of been goofed up befor. | 16:03 |
| Hollenthon | erUSUL, i changed it to main server, I hope it works. | 16:03 |
| researcher1 | geekfreak:yes | 16:03 |
| pop2 | Dr_Willis: mkay | 16:03 |
| dum | DasEi: i need some applications to run at start up | 16:03 |
| tiina | Hi anyone here who could help me to install my LG mobilephone on ubuntu 9.10? | 16:04 |
| pop2 | So for future reference, how do i connect to/explore wifi network on the command line? | 16:04 |
| dum | DasEi: some scripts to run.. | 16:04 |
| DasEi | !startup | bum, so no script then | 16:04 |
| ubottu | bum, so no script then: To add programs to start up when you log into your Gnome session go to System>Preferences>Sessions and use the Startup Programs tab. For more information, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AddingProgramToSessionStartup - See !boot for starting non-interactive programs at boot | 16:04 |
| Dr_Willis | pop2: make a new user. see if it works proerly for them. also check to see who owns all the files in you problem users home. it should be owned by your user, and the group should also be you rusers name. not 'root' | 16:04 |
| dum | DasEi: scripts that set up network stuff | 16:04 |
| Hollenthon | erUSUL, thanks, changed to main repositorie and it works like a charm now, no untrusted packages error anymore. | 16:05 |
| Dr_Willis | dum: if you want them to run at boot time.. without a user logging in.. and they have no gui.. /etc/rc.local is a good place for them | 16:05 |
| DasEi | dum : can be set in rc.local, I assume your proxy stuff | 16:05 |
| erUSUL | Hollenthon: no problem | 16:05 |
| eguest039 | /mesg | 16:05 |
| pop2 | how do i get ls to show hidden files | 16:05 |
| DasEi | pop2: nautilus ? | 16:05 |
| Dr_Willis | pop2: ls -a | 16:05 |
| Dr_Willis | pop2: 'man ls' for details | 16:05 |
| tiina | could someone help me with lg mobilein ubuntu? | 16:05 |
| pop2 | DasEi: XFCE :P | 16:05 |
| DasEi | pop2: ctrl+h | 16:06 |
| DasEi | pop2 : #xubuntu is there, too | 16:06 |
| pop2 | DasEi That way i'd have to inspect the properties of each file to see who owns it so i'm just using ls | 16:06 |

| outoftime | hi all -- i keep doing some typo keybinding that makes my gnome-terminal window semi-transparent -- the transparency extends to the titlebar, so I'm guessing it's a window manager thing rather than a gnome-terminal thing, but i can't for the life of me figure out what I did or how to get it back to normal. | 16:07 |
| Dr_Willis | pop2: its owned by my user here. | 16:07 |
| DasEi | pop2: sudo chown $USER ~/.Iceauhtority | 16:08 |
| pedro | Someone noticed editing videos? | 16:08 |
| pop2 | DasEi: Yeah :) | 16:08 |
| Pici | pedro noticed? | 16:08 |
| pedro | Yes . | 16:08 |
| dum | DasEi: not just my proxy.. actually.. i want to set up static route in my routing table each time i reboot.. I have written the script to do that.. just want to but that code in the right place | 16:08 |
| Dr_Willis | outoftime: its a compiz thing. install/check the ccsm tool. disable the plugin for transparency if you want. | 16:08 |
| pop2 | in ls -l there are two columns with my username... is one a group? | 16:08 |
| Dr_Willis | !ccsm | 16:08 |

| Dr_Willis | pop2: yes. user:group | 16:09 |

| rocket16 | In Xchat, I need to identify again and again, when I start. Can't there be a start-up script? | 16:10 |
| Pici | !crosspost | dum | 16:10 |
| ubottu | dum: Please don't ask the same question in multiple Ubuntu channels at the same time. Many helpers are in more than one channel and it's not fair to them or the other people seeking support. | 16:10 |
| rocket16 | IN Empahty it automatically identifies me, | 16:10 |
| Dr_Willis | rocket16: xchat settings has a identify setting or yocan set up an on connect. command/script | 16:10 |
| rocket16 | Dr_Willis: Oh, thanks, | 16:10 |
| Dr_Willis | rocket16: theres also other scripts you can use for xchat to automate it. see the xchat homepage | 16:10 |
| pinoyoragon | Sh3r1ff: still there? | 16:10 |
| rocket16 | Dr_Willis: Ok, thanks | 16:11 |
| outoftime | Dr_Willis: looks like "Fading Windows" was at fault -- disabled it and all is good. thanks! | 16:11 |
| pop2 | hmm | 16:11 |
| DasEi | rocket16: xchat allows that too, set up account properly | 16:11 |
| pop2 | changing .ICEauthority to my user/group didn't solve the login crash | 16:11 |
| pop2 | any other ideas? :P | 16:11 |
| pop2 | and that's basically the only file in my homedir that was misowned | 16:11 |
| dum | ubottu: sorry.. | 16:11 |
| DasEi | pop2: check /var/log/syslog and messages in same dir | 16:11 |
| pop2 | dum: lol | 16:11 |
| dum | pop2: just desperate.. ;) | 16:12 |
| Dr_Willis | pop2: check ALL the files in every dir. test with a new user.. if a newly made user crashes also.. well theres some deeper issues going on. | 16:12 |
| Dr_Willis | pop2: if a newly made user works.. then it points to the problem users settings being to blame | 16:12 |
| DasEi | dum : ubott... is the channel ro-bot | 16:12 |
| geekphreak | back | 16:12 |
| pop2 | Dr_Willis did you see I said xfdesktop: Fatal IO error 104 (Connection reset by peer) on X server :0.0. | 16:12 |
| dum | DasEi: lol.. just found out.. ;) | 16:13 |
| Dr_Willis | pop2: it could be a user setting.. if it fails for a new user.. that would point to it not being a user setting. | 16:13 |
| DasEi | dum:and I'm his sister, hehe | 16:13 |
| pop2 | ah alright | 16:13 |
| DasEi | !brain > dum | 16:13 |
| ubottu | dum, please see my private message | 16:13 |
| dum | DasEi: new to this irc thing.. but loving this room | 16:13 |
| pop2 | how do i add a new user on the commandline (for future reference :P) | 16:13 |
| DasEi | pop2 : sudo adduser | 16:14 |
| geekphreak | dum good people here , oh wait i am one of them ;) | 16:14 |
| Dr_Willis | pop2: sudoadduser billgates | 16:14 |

| dalton2345 | Hi everybody, I have a question, I have an ubuntu partition, if i upgrade vista to 7, will it wipe ubuntu? | 16:14 |
| geekphreak | Dr_Willis: lol nice name | 16:14 |
| dum | DasEi: and arrogant = DasEi | 16:14 |
| pop2 | LOL | 16:14 |
| e-DIO-t | dalton2345: guess no, but i got no proofs | 16:14 |
| pop2 | adduser prompts me for the user's ROOM NUMBER?? | 16:14 |
| geekphreak | dalton2345: it wont wipe ubuntu, but ubuntu boot loader grub 2 yes | 16:15 |
| Dr_Willis | pop2: just enter some info or hit enter... | 16:15 |
| Dr_Willis | pop2: logical eh.. | 16:15 |
| geekphreak | dalton2345: you will have to reinstall grub | 16:15 |
| pop2 | haha okay | 16:15 |
| e-DIO-t | pop2: try "which useradd && which adduser" | 16:15 |
| dalton2345 | geekphreak: so when i reboot i wont have grub? | 16:15 |
| pop2 | When prompted for [Y/n], the capital letter is the default if you just push enter, right? | 16:15 |
| geekphreak | dalton2345: nope | 16:15 |
| geekphreak | dalton2345: you will have to use ubuntu cd, to install grub back | 16:16 |
| Dr_Willis | pop2: just hit enter a few dozen times.. and set a password.. :) | 16:16 |
| geekphreak | dalton2345: ubuntu partition will be still there | 16:16 |
| pop2 | Dr_Willis I did :P | 16:16 |
| Dr_Willis | pop2: then its added. | 16:16 |
| pop2 | Dr_Willis: Gonna test it now with xfce | 16:16 |
| pop2 | brb | 16:16 |
| dalton2345 | geekphreak: so i will have to insert the cd and it will tell me to install grub? | 16:16 |
| barrando | any idea about remove the gdm splash? I'm moving to openbox wm and really feel that it's too long to wait, when you frequently login and out | 16:17 |
| geekphreak | dalton2345: run the cd in rescue mode | 16:17 |
| geekphreak | rescue a system mode | 16:17 |
| dalton2345 | geekphreak: then what? | 16:17 |
| Niksoni | Will there be Ubuntu DVD? :D | 16:17 |
| geekphreak | it will do it thing, then it will give you option to drop to shel, or reinstall grub | 16:17 |
| dum | geekphreak: real good people here and DasEi: is the greatest. ;) sucking up;) | 16:17 |
| pop2 | Dr_Willis: Yup works | 16:17 |
| geekphreak | dum yeah he is and he did not pay me to say that ;) | 16:18 |
| dalton2345 | geekphreak: have u done it? | 16:18 |
| ZykoticK9 | Niksoni, there already is an Ubuntu DVD, it simply contains more packages then the CD version | 16:18 |
| geekphreak | dalton2345: many times :) | 16:18 |
| Dr_Willis | pop2: you could just start deleting settingt files.. and clean them out. :) and perhaps find theone thats the problem | 16:18 |
| Niksoni | zykoricK9: Where? | 16:18 |
| geekphreak | dalton2345: 1 thing to keep in mind dalton2345 | 16:18 |
| pop2 | How do I sudo from a user that's not supposed to sudo | 16:18 |
| dalton2345 | geekphreak: is 7 much better? | 16:18 |
| Dr_Willis | pop2: you dont. :) | 16:18 |
| geekphreak | dalton2345: just do this test for me | 16:18 |
| pop2 | Dr_Willis: lol which ones | 16:18 |
| Dr_Willis | pop2: no idea. ones related to xfce i imagine. | 16:19 |
| geekphreak | insert cd in drive , and try to boot from , just boot , dont install or anything | 16:19 |
| geekphreak | doe you see "rescue a system option" | 16:19 |
| Xethron | Hey guys | 16:19 |
| e-DIO-t | [Noob -> which is the actual use of exec? is the "long" for `command` ?] | 16:19 |
| geekphreak | dalton2345: yes windows 7 is good | 16:19 |
| dalton2345 | geekphreak: how long is the upgrade just so i know | 16:19 |
| pop2 | Dr_Willis: Forbidding sudo is a bit silly, the user can still ctrl+alt+f1 and do the same thing | 16:20 |
| geekphreak | dalton2345: depend on system speed , | 16:20 |
| Glorf | Plop | 16:20 |
| geekphreak | dalton2345: normally like 30-45 min | 16:20 |
| Dr_Willis | pop2: you dont really know enough to understand it then i guess... | 16:20 |
| geekphreak | rocket16: dont pm me | 16:20 |
| dalton2345 | geekphreak: sound good, let me insert the cd if i see system rescue mode, brb | 16:20 |
| Dr_Willis | pop2: you could have 10 users logged in at the same time also.. only sudo enabled users can do sudo 'tasks' thats how it works | 16:20 |
| Dr_Willis | pop2: you could also set up specific users with specific sudo rights where they can only do specific commands. | 16:21 |
| pop2 | hmm | 16:21 |
| Dr_Willis | pop2: in short.. theres a LOT more to 'sudo' then 'a command you use to get root access' :) | 16:21 |
| pop2 | hmm, #xubuntu is dead. Does anyone here know where xfce4's user setting files are | 16:22 |

| yofel | pop2: as nokia_ said, if you run a root shell you don't need sudo, and if you want to give someone else sudo rights add him to the admin group | 16:28 |
| skrite99 | Urda, change his home directory | 16:28 |
| honza | hello guys, I'm really stuck, I created a new user in my 9.10 ubuntu, when I try to run e.g. xlock or xterm I get an error: No protocol specified .... any suggestions? I tried exporting DISPLAY as localhost and other ip's to no avail .... | 16:28 |
| nokia_ | yep.. the root group.... | 16:28 |
| skrite99 | Urda, to the directory that you want to auto cd into | 16:28 |
| Urda | skrite99: I did that and it isn't jumping to it on login, I should also mention I am jailing the user to their home directory, and want them to jump down one to incoming | 16:28 |
| pop2 | yofel Yeah I was asking how to do that over the commandline (and found it on google :P) | 16:29 |
| yofel | nokia_: no, the admin group, the root group isn't used | 16:29 |
| === OerHeks is now known as Oer | ||
| Urda | so /store/sftp/test and on login should jump to /store/sftp/test/incoming | 16:29 |
| skrite99 | ah | 16:29 |
| nokia_ | you can add user with admin rights. no harm | 16:29 |

| yofel | nokia_: well, that's why you came here, wasn't it? | 16:31 |
| Urda | skrite99: got it, I had to do a home dir Relative to jail | 16:31 |
| justdave | Urda: look into a package called 'scponly' | 16:31 |
| yofel | nokia_: and floodbot cut you off when you pasted it so you don't spam the channel | 16:31 |
| Urda | skrite99: /incoming | 16:31 |
| justdave | Urda: it'll probably do what you want | 16:31 |

| wad | psusi: We're looking into that right now. But in the meantime... (Yes, pop2, Gnome) | 16:34 |
| yofel | nokia_: it will install a few other things too (g++ included) | 16:35 |
| pop2 | wad In the meantime probably replace GNOME with openbox or something, lol | 16:35 |
| psusi | wad: yea, I'd say install server edition without x if you don't need desktop.... that will lower the footprint a good bit | 16:35 |
| pop2 | wad if you're looking to minimize ram usage :) | 16:35 |
| wad | psusi, pop2, yes yes. We're working on that. But for now, it's a pre-packaged image that has gnome. How much RAM, would you estimate? | 16:35 |
| psusi | wad: but for desktop you really want at least 512 megs | 16:36 |

| wad | pop2, okay, we'll go with 384 then. Thanks! | 16:38 |
| pop2 | =D | 16:38 |
| psusi | runarfreyr: fat/ntfs fake the permissions so all the files appear owned by one person and are only accessible to them... usually that is the logged in desktop user... that's a problem for samba | 16:38 |

| theadmin | petar_: No idea :/ | 17:53 |

| yeiks | k0nata how should i compile it | 17:53 |
| geekphreak | theadmin: i do really :) | 17:53 |
| k0nata | o-brown i think it should work with every usb standard compatible card reader, did you checked it on windows? | 17:53 |
| theadmin | Is it safe to create a shortcut to something like "gksu gnome-terminal"? | 17:54 |
| k0nata | yeiks google for make and compiling on ubuntu | 17:54 |
| Dr_Willis | Ive had issues with built-in card readers on some laptops. but tose where not usiong the 'usb' connections | 17:54 |
| Trek | sipior: what type should I be looking at? i'm not 100% sure what each type does | 17:54 |
| o-brown | k0nata: yes on windows it always worked properly | 17:54 |
| k0nata | theadmin i think there shouldnt be a problem | 17:54 |
| o-brown | k0nata: but my card reader is not an usb card reader, it's a built-in one | 17:54 |
| theadmin | k0nata: Thanks | 17:55 |
| k0nata | o-brown anyway your /dev/mapper seems awkward | 17:55 |
| sipior | Trek: if that's the case, playing around in /dev is ill-advised :-) | 17:55 |
| theadmin | k0nata: What's the problem? My one also has only 'control' | 17:55 |
| k0nata | o-brown its build in? sata or ide i think? | 17:55 |
| Dr_Willis | o-brown: that can be a problem. - I had a laptop where only the sd slot worked.. but a release of ubuntu later it started working with the other slots as well. | 17:55 |
| Trek | sipior: true. :P | 17:55 |
| Trek | sipior: is it possible to symlink, then, to /dev/null? | 17:55 |
| Dr_Willis | o-brown: it can depend on what chipset thelaptop is using. I found it wasier to just track down a $5 usb multi-card reader to carry around | 17:55 |
| k0nata | theadmin maybe its because im using encrypted partitions with dm-crypt | 17:56 |
| Trek | sipior: so if I move something to that symlink, it sends it to /dev/null? | 17:56 |
| theadmin | Trek: actually, /dev should be managed only by udevd, nothing else. But as per symlinking to files in /dev it is no prob | 17:56 |
| sipior | Trek: try it and find out. | 17:56 |
| theadmin | k0nata: Ah yeah, dmcrypt/truecrypt do put stuff there | 17:56 |
| o-brown | Dr_Willis: yes I think that will be the best solution | 17:56 |
| o-brown | k0nata: ok thanks for the help | 17:57 |

| thevishy | has anyone install ubuntu from iso via PXE from a windows based server ? | 18:51 |
| QueenZ | |sqwertle|: mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/root (make sure you mkdir /mnt/root first) | 18:51 |
| campee | if you mean your DNS suffix list, you can cat /etc/resolv.conf | 18:51 |
| h0dg3s | thevishy: I don't think you can do it from ISO, I think it needs to be mounted to NFS | 18:51 |
| shadowling | I miss my old Network Manager. hehe. | 18:51 |
| |sqwertle| | QueenZ: you must specify the filesystem type | 18:51 |
| QueenZ | not necceserily | 18:52 |
| shadowling | Under that it was just in general or something and I could change the Domain. | 18:52 |
| |sqwertle| | QueenZ: thats the error it gave me =/ | 18:52 |

| Coded1 | is there a pre-packaged control center app for ATI drivers? I can get it from their website but I don't want it to screw with the ubuntu packaged ones installed already | 18:53 |
| campee | i think setting your domain name is just a matter of configuring your DNS suffix search list. you can add that to /etc/resolv.conf | 18:53 |
| Pici | geowany: I think that the 10.04 discussion/support channel is #ubuntu+1 | 18:53 |

| ubottu | Zamolxe: Forgot your password? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LostPassword What's the root password? See !sudo. Don't see *** in password prompts? That's normal. Sudo doesn't ask for your password? It remembers you for several minutes. Please use strong passwords, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/StrongPasswords | 18:57 |

| Zamolxe | erUSUL: how can i reset it? i'm at the boot screen | 18:57 |

| Runeg | Pici, Any idea why 7.x isn't listed on that releases page? | 19:24 |
| Pici | Runeg: Because 7.04 and 7.10 are both EOL. | 19:25 |
| Masteredu | EOL? | 19:25 |
| Runeg | jessyroo, #windows might help | 19:25 |
| Pici | !EOL | Masteredu | 19:25 |

| FiFU_ | hi | 19:26 |
| tobiash | can someone help me make kwin my default window manager in gnome? | 19:26 |
| progre55 | jerry416: lspci | grep Audio | 19:26 |
| progre55 | jerry416: lspci -v | less | 19:26 |
| tobiash | also how do I get the taskbar elements display a preview while hovering over them | 19:26 |
| jerry416 | thanks | 19:27 |
| progre55 | jerry416: lshw -c multimedia | 19:27 |
| Masteredu | tobiash: i think you can make an autostart entry, with killall metacity && kwin --replace i think . this might help | 19:27 |
| h0dg3s | trying to run a bash script but it keeps saying permission denied | 19:27 |
| jrib | h0dg3s: what bash script? | 19:27 |
| Masteredu | h0dg3s: you have to do chmod +x NAME on it | 19:27 |
| progre55 | tobiash: try compiz fusion icon | 19:28 |
| Masteredu | h0dg3s: Then you give the rights to execute it | 19:28 |
| progre55 | tobiash: apt-get install fusion-icon | 19:28 |
| raboof | Pici: thanks | 19:28 |
| tobiash | progre55 I've got it, but it logs in with metacity always | 19:28 |
| h0dg3s | Masteredu: Thanks | 19:28 |
| Am4no_ | tobaish.why dont u use compiz instead. it can do taskbar previews | 19:28 |
| tobiash | kwin is marked as enabled, but metacity is running anyway | 19:28 |
| Masteredu | h0dg3s: youre welcome | 19:28 |
| ratdog | what directory can i fined installed apps? | 19:29 |
| tobiash | compiz is not stable, and has problems with games | 19:29 |
| Masteredu | tobiash: try killall metacity && kwin --replace in a terminal, and then make for this an entry in the autostart list. | 19:29 |
| tobiash | kwin is more mature than compiz | 19:29 |
| progre55 | tobiash: hmm.. did you try running fusion-icon and changing the windows manager from it? | 19:29 |
| ratdog | so disable compix wjile playing? | 19:29 |
| ratdog | z | 19:29 |
| tobiash | progre55 read what I've wrote | 19:29 |
| Masteredu | tobiash: do you allready tried it, to kill metacity and the kwin --replace option? | 19:30 |
| ratdog | what directory can i fined installed apps? | 19:30 |

| kazaa_lite | how can i find whether kernel installed on my 64-bit ubuntu is PAE or non-PAE kernel? | 19:31 |

| ratdog | its installed already | 19:31 |

| ^paradox^ | ok small problem. a person downloaded one of my zip files that was created with archive manager and claimed the password didnt work. he was typing it right and i doubled checked it. why would this be? | 19:32 |
| h0dg3s | Masteredu: The script runs sudo apt-get and then a list of programs. If I paste it into a terminal it works fine, but the script says No such file or directory. Any ideas? | 19:32 |
| kazaa_lite | Masteredu: does not make sense to me:( | 19:32 |
| jrib | ^paradox^: does it work for you? | 19:32 |
| brontos | progre55, erUSUL I should also mention this is a headless machine that is done via rm through ssh | 19:33 |
| petar_ | how can i record videos in linux? record the desktop with the taskbars 2 | 19:33 |
| ^paradox^ | jrib: yes with no problems | 19:33 |
| brontos | progre55, erUSUL or will it still collect in trash? | 19:33 |
| Masteredu | h0dg3s: ehm what script? | 19:33 |
| jrib | ^paradox^: version issue or pebkac | 19:33 |
| h0dg3s | Masteredu: I made one to grab the dependancies for Chromeos | 19:33 |
| Masteredu | kazaa_lite: do you tried uname -a? | 19:33 |
| h0dg3s | *chromiumos | 19:33 |
| erUSUL | brontos: ook... then there is a problem :) . bad disk or amother filesystem error; sometimes a fsck frees up the space | 19:34 |
| progre55 | so, I manually compiled the alsa driver and now my volume control does not have any effect on the volume. even if I mute it. btw, karmic 64bit. any suggestions, please? | 19:34 |
| erUSUL | brontos: dunno if you can afford a fsck on the machine | 19:34 |
| Masteredu | h0dg3s: when it says that a directory is not found, the path is wrong | 19:34 |
| ^paradox^ | jrib: i dont think he was using archive manager | 19:34 |
| Masteredu | h0dg3s: in the script | 19:34 |
| kazaa_lite | Masteredu: this is what I mentioned.... it gives 2.6.31-20-generic x86_64... does that mean it is non-PAE kernel? | 19:34 |
| h0dg3s | I think I put too much crap in one line. It looked right in notepad++ but in gedit it's multiple lines | 19:34 |
| ^paradox^ | i think he was windows or mac | 19:34 |
| tobi__ | Masteredu it works but I need to restart kwin from fusion icon anyway because, there is no window decoration :/ | 19:35 |
| erUSUL | kazaa_lite: it is 64 bits ; there is no need for pae | 19:35 |
| tobi__ | Masteredu at the start | 19:35 |
| Masteredu | kazaa_lite: is PAE standard included? | 19:35 |
| kazaa_lite | erUSUL: so PAE is issue of 32-bit and non 64-bit? | 19:35 |
| Masteredu | tobi: then you can maybe make before this an entry for fusion icon in the autostart list ? | 19:36 |
| M4rotku | hey guys, is it possible to mount an external hard drive (or any drive) via command line without using sudo? I don't want to use sudo b/c I don't want to mess up the permissions | 19:36 |
| erUSUL | kazaa_lite: yes | 19:36 |
| kazaa_lite | erUSUL: cool:D | 19:36 |
| jrib | ^paradox^: you should verify with a third-party | 19:36 |
| ^paradox^ | jrib: i forgot others have successfully opened unprotected zips of mine if it matters | 19:36 |
| jerry416 | this terminal stuff is cool, it says i can set hardware modes. | 19:36 |
| erUSUL | M4rotku: you can use "devkit-disks --mount /dev/sdxx" | 19:36 |
| h0dg3s | Masteredu: Does that mean I should have something other than #!/bin/bash at the top? | 19:36 |
| Masteredu | M4rotku: mounting is allways posible as root | 19:37 |
| jrib | ^paradox^: I would give the same file to someone else and see if it works for them. Also, have this user check the md5sum | 19:37 |
| tobi__ | Masteredu it works fine except for title bar not being shown xD I need to restart kwin from fusion icon every time :/ | 19:37 |
| ^paradox^ | jrib: i would if any my friends were on | 19:37 |
| thevishy | hi friends , i have setup a machine as PXE server ... ( windows ) ....but i dont want a net install - i have a iso file | 19:38 |
| thevishy | please someone enlighten how I can achieve this | 19:38 |
| Masteredu | h0dg3s: #! /bin/bash is right, but i use a space for this , i mean between ! and the / | 19:38 |
| Masteredu | h0dg3s: jeah it is right | 19:39 |
| h0dg3s | still doesn't find it :( | 19:39 |
| Masteredu | h0dg3s: it must an other thing be | 19:39 |
| Moral_ | I need to bind a proxy so nslookup can use it, how would I go about doing so? | 19:39 |
| Masteredu | h0dg3s: use pastebin | 19:39 |
| M4rotku | thanks erUSUL | 19:39 |
| erUSUL | M4rotku: no problem | 19:39 |
| Masteredu | h0dg3s: to post your script | 19:39 |
| ^paradox^ | jrib: the archive was created on my external hard drive and uploaded to a file host from there. would that make any difference? | 19:40 |
| jrib | h0dg3s: and what exactly you are typing when you try to run it | 19:40 |
| jrib | ^paradox^: nope | 19:40 |
| jrib | ^paradox^: does the md5sum he gave you match yours? | 19:41 |
| Masteredu | h0dg3s: the standard syntax is ./NAME , but only when you are in the right directory | 19:41 |

| erUSUL | dotblank: if you ask the buffer size of a fifo file in linux... i dunno | 20:22 |
| dotblank | erUSUL, Ok if I cat file > fifo and then use mplayer where it slowly reads the fifo file into a buffer | 20:23 |
| exand | ciao | 20:23 |
| dotblank | cat wont finish until the entire file is catted right? | 20:23 |
| [Screamo] | Can anyone help me set up an Eggdrop bot? | 20:23 |
| erUSUL | dotblank: i think that cat will block when the buffer is full untill the reader makes room (by reading from the buffer) | 20:23 |
| jrib | [Screamo]: install eggdrop from the repositories. Then read its documentation or try #eggdrop for configuration help | 20:24 |

| thevishy9 | where is the release file in ubuntu archive | 20:29 |
| Masteredu | the release is written on the website or? | 20:30 |
| progre55 | erUSUL: Option -o has been renamed to -vo (video-out), use -vo | 20:30 |
| Masteredu | erUSUL: and -ao is for audio-out :) | 20:31 |
| erUSUL | progre55: -ao (audio output) | 20:31 |

| grendal_prime | ok got moblin off the system from what i can tell..but damn i still just have this white screen...the gnome services are running but i can see whats going on..what would be missing from gnome that would cause that? | 20:31 |
| progre55 | erUSUL: Selected audio codec: [mp3] afm: mp3lib (mp3lib MPEG layer-2, layer-3) | 20:32 |
| progre55 | it seems to play the file, but no sound | 20:32 |
| progre55 | even after installing ffmpeg | 20:32 |
| erUSUL | progre55: check the volume settings ? maybe mplayer is silenced? | 20:32 |
| Masteredu | grendal_prime: you mean you dont even see one menu? | 20:32 |
| alonea | progre55: try that. I generally don't want a lot of videos on my nix machine, but codecs tend to be an issue. What kind of file is it? and check if itsd silenced of course | 20:33 |
| erUSUL | progre55: pulse has per app volume and all that fancy stuff | 20:33 |
| grendal_prime | exactly | 20:33 |
| Masteredu | grendal_prime: then it is maybe a X-Server or X.org problem | 20:33 |
| Masteredu | grendal_prime: X.org i think | 20:33 |

| Edward123 | does it really have to come down to that or does anyone have a suggestion? | 20:56 |
| Masteredu | ubuntu: KDE has a network manager to | 20:56 |
| grendal_prime | this seems to be working just fine | 20:56 |

| natrixnatrix | Is there a way I can make skype use grayscale video, when using webcam? not the ordinary with colors. | 20:56 |
| Edward123 | nobody else had issues with the screensaver coming on when watching movies in vlc, or indeed any other media player? | 20:56 |
| Masteredu | Edward123: Does it not give an option for that in the vlc you using at the moment | 20:57 |
| Edward123 | Masteredu: there is an option, 'disable screensaver while playing' - no joy though, screensaver still comes on | 20:57 |
| natrixnatrix | Edward123: i use the inhibit applet | 20:57 |
| Masteredu | natrixnatrix: what pc specs you have | 20:57 |
| ubuntu | aeon-ltd: it shows 2 boxes with some 4 numeric characters inside. something like a missing character to be displayed. | 20:57 |
| Masteredu | Edward123: why you not try the unofficial repo | 20:57 |
| Edward123 | natrixnatrix: i tried apt-cache search inhibit, but no useful results? | 20:57 |
| natrixnatrix | Masteredu: I'm using v4l2, so when I launch skype i use that env .. command | 20:58 |
| aeon-ltd | ubuntu: so the SSID hasn't changed neither has any router settings since your network manager/wicd switchover? | 20:58 |
| natrixnatrix | Edward123: but you know the applet, that can be added to the panel? | 20:58 |
| Masteredu | natrixnatrix: webcamstudio4gnulinux is realy cool. that must support this option. the prob is , it is written in java and requieres a good pc | 20:58 |
| Edward123 | Masteredu: i'd like to keep everything coming from the offical and offical non-free repos if possible, don't want to have sto start messing around with whatever the ubuntu equiv. of yum priorities is just to get the screensaver off while i'm watching movies - which seemed to be working fine on 9.04 before i upgraded? | 20:58 |

| sausy | Ok | 21:04 |
| Llywelyn | When I try to connect with Wireless, I only get one little "ball" green and nothing happens :( | 21:04 |
| maginot | adalal, how do you did ? | 21:05 |

| aeon-ltd | subone: damn,.......... iphone? | 21:06 |
| Godslastering | maple1: in the os you want to install, just say "uise entire drive" | 21:06 |
| subone | aeon-ltd, cliq android | 21:06 |
| Godslastering | maple1: "use entire drive" rather | 21:06 |
| subone | aeon-ltd, id rather have these things in a customized interface | 21:07 |
| aeon-ltd | subone: double damn | 21:07 |
| adalal | maple1: you insert the windows disc, and select the install option, and wait for 4 hours :) | 21:07 |
| maginot | adalal, but did you tried install fglrx with "apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx" ? | 21:07 |
| KaOSoFt | Hmm... if I click the Places or Systems or Applications menu, and let the menu displayed, "Print Screen" command won't take the picture. In fact, even if I have something like a context menu (after right-click) active, it still won't work. If no menu is active, "Print Screen" will work flawless. | 21:07 |
| trevor | i would just install them side by side | 21:07 |
| adalal | maginot: yes, i have, gives the same error | 21:07 |
| subone | aeon-ltd, i was gonna make an android app for it, but decided it would be easier to do it this way | 21:07 |
| trevor | i had a laptop that didnt work with ubuntu and it turned out to be a faulty harddrive boot section | 21:08 |
| subone | aeon-ltd, i just cant figure out why sometimes when i send dbus-send messages to gnome-mplayer it terminates randomly (or at least it seems random) | 21:08 |
| maginot | adalal, I can't imagine what is going wrong there, here I have no problem installing with apt-get ... sorry | 21:08 |
| Godslastering | How do i fix depends with apt-get? | 21:08 |
| trevor | is it protected by a password | 21:08 |

Do I need to purchase some kind of site wide calls for these systems to communicate with the samba shares? Or does that only apply if it was a real windows server? | 21:20 |

| coz_ | Hollenthon, super is the orginal name for the "windows" key | 21:20 |

| gps23 | maginot: i mean i can copy the latest packages from /var/cache/apt/archives/ from one system to another, but the other system won't pick that packages as they are of latest versions, so i want to do aptitude update offline, may be by copying some files | 21:58 |

| drd_ | well, i have the headers | 21:58 |

| maginot | gps23, but for that to really work without any future problem the packages inside archive must be the ones installed on your system, otherwise they weren't there | 21:59 |
| maginot | gps23, but if you are aware of the problems, you could use /var/lib/dpkg/status from one machine on the other, maybe you want to make a backup of the file before overriding anything | 22:00 |

| ihaveitnow | Can someone explain the difference between -zxvf and -xf when extracting tar.gz files? Anda good day to all | 22:08 |

| ihaveitnow | @jetienne So why have them both in the same extraction code? | 22:10 |
| jetienne | good bot | 22:10 |

| progre55 | how to replace alsa with pulseaudio so that the volume control works? | 22:11 |
| Steve^ | is desktop zoom not possible without compiz? | 22:11 |
| bjarkef | ihaveitnow: x is extract, v is verbose, z is unzip, f is do this to the file mentioned next. zxvf is all of them, xf is just extract this file. | 22:11 |
| ihaveitnow | @jetienne : Maybe im not understanding the meaning of verbose | 22:11 |
| maginot | progre55, pulseaudio is already enabled and default on ubuntu... | 22:11 |
| jetienne | ihaveitnow: verbose = a lot more details for the human to see | 22:11 |
| amos | ihaveitnow: verbose - show progress while extracting | 22:11 |
| maginot | !pulseaudio | 22:12 |
| ubottu | PulseAudio is a sound server intended as a drop-in replacement for !ESD - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PulseAudio for information and installation instructions | 22:12 |
| progre55 | maginot: well, I removed it =) | 22:12 |
| jetienne | and ou can remove pulseaudio if you want sound :) | 22:12 |
| maginot | progre55, install again with apt-get ... | 22:12 |
| bjarkef | ihaveitnow: tar is usually able to guess that you need to do unzip first, so you can usually drop the z parameter. Which is why tar xf works on .tar.bz2, .tar.gz and just .tar files. | 22:12 |
| ihaveitnow | @bjarkef : @amos: @jetienne:oh oh oh oh, I get it. Thanks for the speedy and co-operative responses guys. I appreciate it. Good day to all | 22:12 |
| bjarkef | jetienne, amos: pro and con, you are supplementing each other nicely. ;) | 22:13 |
| progre55 | maginot: I tried to re-compile alsa, and my volume control lost control over volume =) and I removed pulseaudio. When I install it again, it doesnt work, because maybe alsa is taking over or smth | 22:14 |
| ownlife | What is the site that lets us share large sections of text with each other? | 22:14 |
| progre55 | maginot: for instance mplayer plays files, but no sound, but when I specify -ao alsa, it works okay | 22:14 |
| maginot | sorry, can't help with custom setups... you should know what you were doing when you manually replaced something | 22:14 |
| frxstrem | can ffmpeg only be used for audio, or can it be used to exctract audio from video too? (although I doubt it, I just have to ask) | 22:14 |

| ihaveitnow | @bjarkef: No such file or directory | 22:18 |
| bjarkef | ihaveitnow, do a "ls", find the name of the directory, which probably is php-5.3.2, and do a "cd php-5.3.2". | 22:19 |

| wizard_ | skuzzel: you need to update grub probably | 22:21 |
| mkquist | wizard_: you dont need ssh just to share files | 22:21 |
| skuzzel | wizard: I just installed it off the live CD 9.10 today | 22:21 |
| blindx | skuzzel, have you updated all packages? | 22:22 |
| ihaveitnow | @bjarkef: Gave me an error...Saying libxml2 not found. But when I :apt-get install libxml2: it says its at the most recent version... | 22:22 |
| bjarkef | ihaveitnow, exactly. Sorry, would be no problem, but I have to run. Somebody else here can take over if necessary, but you should be able to follow any php compilation guide from there. | 22:22 |
| bjarkef | ihaveitnow, you probably need libxml2-dev | 22:22 |
| ihaveitnow | @bjarkef:will do, thanks again | 22:23 |
| wizard_ | mkquist: please elaborate. Hwo do I connect two computers without SSH? | 22:23 |
| mkquist | wizard_: are they on a network? | 22:23 |
| Guitch | Hi, anyone use ARISTA TRANSCODER? | 22:24 |
| wizard_ | mkquist: no. They both get wired internet from the same router, but they are not networked to share files. I want to connect via the internet to the other machine. SSH is what I need help with. | 22:24 |
| skuzzel | blindx: what do you mean? | 22:24 |
| bjarkef | ihaveitnow, You always need the -dev package variant, they contain the extra "stuff" that is necessary for manually compilation against. And you probably will need quite a few for compilation of php, but you will get the names one by one when you try to redo the ./configure | 22:24 |

| amos | sorry skuzzel :D | 22:27 |
| mkquist | wizard_: controls shares on computer | 22:27 |

| skuzzel | amos: I'm fairly certain I didn't | 22:28 |
| skuzzel | amos: I think that's the problem, | 22:28 |
| drd_ | ok... i've never worked with minux really, so here's a silly question | 22:28 |
| mkquist | wizard_: its installed by default i believe, for ubuntu anyway | 22:28 |
| drd_ | why don't the executables have a file extension? | 22:29 |
| skuzzel | amos: how do I do that? | 22:29 |
| drd_ | i'm trying to run a program i just compiled from console, but i can't seem to do it | 22:29 |
| brummbaer | drd_ executable is a property set with permissions, not file extensions | 22:29 |
| amos | skuzzel: when u boot ur pc, does it show a menu with a list of options or it just boots straight into ubutnu | 22:29 |
| wizard_ | mkquist: thats not what I asked. I asked if both PCs need the EXTRA packages that shares-admin installs. | 22:29 |
| skuzzel | amos: strait into ubuntu | 22:29 |
| mkquist | wizard_: both linux machines? | 22:29 |

| drd_ | i mean like, "don't do it!" | 23:07 |
| drd_ | or, "it's ok." :p | 23:07 |

| jamm | is there a way I can "combine" two or more different distros/ISO discs into a single one and choose at boot wich one I want to use? (the reason is that I don't want to waste more discs as long as they can fit on a DVD for example) | 23:09 |
| Nattu | Hi u there? can I share you the link which has the user manual | 23:09 |
| IsoLinCHiP | drd_: Well, if your running under vbox anyway, just try it after making a snapshot, or are you talking about the hosts gfx drivers? | 23:09 |
| Nattu | I am no expert in this area | 23:09 |
| shashike | no, its not working | 23:09 |
| tracer | i upgraded from karmic to lucid and everything went well, but graphics not 100%,have correct resolution but video playback sloppy and boot screen is black and white instead of the nice blue boot up with nice graphics. any help appreciated. | 23:09 |
| drd_ | well, i browsed to add/remove programs, entered opengl in the query box, and it offered several drivers | 23:09 |
| drd_ | so... i guess what i'm saying is a local driver update for ubuntu | 23:10 |
| drd_ | it currently unchecked | 23:10 |
| IsoLinCHiP | drd_: What is your host os? | 23:10 |
| hiexpo | jamm, no | 23:10 |
| drd_ | vista 64 | 23:10 |
| IsoLinCHiP | drd_: So were talking about, whether you should update the drivers within VirtualBox? | 23:11 |
| mcgyber0o0 | grub fails to load windows 7. any help would be awesome. | 23:11 |
| drd_ | well... from within ubuntu | 23:11 |
| drd_ | but yeah... ubuntu will be running under virtualbox | 23:11 |
| millhouse | nattu yea sure | 23:12 |
| millhouse | sorry about the slow responce | 23:12 |
| drd_ | every opengl program i try to run crashes with a segfault, so this is my only idea left | 23:12 |
| Nattu | http://support.vaio.sony.eu/computing/vaio/specifications/index.aspx?l=en_GB&m=VPCEB1Z0E_B | 23:12 |
| Nattu | yes just sent you the link | 23:12 |
| IsoLinCHiP | drd_: Ok, then first of all. Make sure you installed the guest additions inside ubuntu. Then you probably wont need to do anything about gfx drivers in ubuntu. And if you want to try it anyway, make s snapshot, see if it works, if not revert back | 23:12 |
| millhouse | ok mate | 23:13 |

| biston | what can be the problem in this case? | 23:28 |
| jrib | biston: ssh as your first user, not root | 23:28 |
| helkaluin | Latest being 9.10 or Lucid? | 23:28 |
| biston | the whole ssh connection is being refused jrib | 23:29 |
| jrib | biston: locally? | 23:29 |
| biston | i don't even get to a stage to pick a username | 23:29 |
| IsoLinCHiP | biston: Most likely root isnt allowed to login, I think thats default meanwhile check /etc/ssh/sshd_config | 23:29 |
| biston | yes, was just trying out of curiosity | 23:29 |
| jrib | biston: that happens during install | 23:29 |
| jrib | biston: I mean, ssh as your first user locally now | 23:29 |

| yofel | Status: yes, but menu.lst is grub1 and grub.cfg is grub2, so we need to know what he's using, and if he even needs to edit it | 23:55 |
| biston | jrib is there a GUI for network config on ubuntu server ? | 23:56 |
| Status | jrib I dont have old kernels..and each time I update grub with the automatic tool it adds entries to it.. | 23:56 |
| Status | the same stuff that, that's already there | 23:56 |
| Status | and I have to always go there and remove it manually... | 23:56 |
| ardchoille | as jrib mentioned, it's better to remove unused kernels.. that will update grub and keep the system clean | 23:56 |
| Status | so yeah..he needs to edit that file if he's having the same problem | 23:56 |
| yofel | Status: please note that grub.cfg is always deleted and created new when update-grub is run | 23:56 |
| jrib | Status: I didn't tell you to remove old kernels, it was for javy | 23:56 |
| biston | jrib or if you would be kind to guide me where would my net conf files be on ubuntu | 23:56 |
| javy | jrib: thankd | 23:56 |
| Status | yofel nop | 23:57 |
| yofel | Status: so your changes to grub.cfg will always be overwritten | 23:57 |
| jrib | KenBW2: did you forget a final newline? | 23:57 |
| ardchoille | !grub2 | 23:57 |
| Status | its parsed...the entries in there are saved..and its recreated with new ones | 23:57 |
| ubottu | GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 | 23:57 |
| biston | jrib: found them, nvm | 23:57 |
| KenBW2 | jrib: no - the same file works fine on my karmic PC | 23:57 |
| git__ | does anyone know of a good project management software for Ubuntu? | 23:57 |
| jrib | KenBW2: did you install subversion? install an mta and check for mail for cron or redirect the output somewhere and check it | 23:58 |
| KenBW2 | jrib: if i run the command outside of cron it works fine | 23:58 |
| yofel | Status: no it's not, update-grub runs grub-mkconfig and just redirects the output to grub.cfg, grub.cfg is never read, unless you messed with the grub scripts | 23:58 |
| javy | yofel: its doesnt let me save | 23:58 |
| javy | its says is only read file | 23:58 |
| biston | jrib: thanks for the help, i'll carry on with this tomorrow, it's 2 AM, need some sleep | 23:58 |
| yofel | javy: do NOT edit grub.cfg | 23:58 |
| jrib | biston: night, good luck | 23:59 |
| biston | thanks mate | 23:59 |
| Status | yofel try it for yourself... ;] | 23:59 |
| jrib | biston: remember to connect with first user though, root is definitely not allowed to ssh by default | 23:59 |
| javy | yofel: :( so what im gonna do? | 23:59 |
| Status | grub will not remove the default ones... | 23:59 |
| ardchoille | javy: editing grub.cfg is NOT the way to do that | 23:59 |
| biston | we'll see about that | 23:59 |
| ardchoille | !grub2 | javy | 23:59 |
| ubottu | javy: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 | 23:59 |
| yofel | Status: I'm an ubuntu alpha tester and I had my share of debugging grub issues, so I know how it works | 23:59 |
| biston | adios | 23:59 |
| Status | but will add the same ones in there... as ubuntu kernel so and so.. (on sdc whatever) | 23:59 |
