epicblustaThird Ubuntu installer download today. Can anyone tell me why is it really hard to install Ubuntu 9.10?00:05
cloudleviCode 13 on all optical drives, internal and external. I expected that to change after I got Ubuntu but NOPE!!!00:05

calumInstalling 9.10 is easy :(00:06
icerootMoral_: ah as i see you are using a crypted swap00:06
Moral_Yea, should I not?00:06
Sia--hard installing is Gentoo or archlinux or BSD00:06
cloudleviLinux = not user friendly. =/00:06
calumBSD is hard to install00:06
zashI'm messing around with webdav, and my server is set to server *.txt as "text/plain; charset=utf-8". if i connect with nautilus and try to open a .txt file it complains that there's no app for that file type. would this be a bug in gvfs, nautilus or xdg?00:06

mudassarhello people how can I install linux from an iso with multiple parts like linux_1of7.iso, linux_2of7.iso ......... upto 7 as a guest OS in xen ??00:09
john__will someone help me get lm-sensors working? I'm looking a tut from 2007, I don't know if it's still valid00:10
icerootmudassar: you are talking about ubuntu?00:10
calumcloudlevi: Sorry I don't know about optical drives. Can't help there :(00:10
cloudlevicalum: The fun part is that it worked when I had Vista and the Win7 beta. Then the RC reduced it to CD ROM functionality...then the manufacturer update bricked it after I got the RETAIL DX00:10
hiexpojohn__, whats the prob00:10
Moral_iceroot, http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/411842/00:11
cloudlevicalum: Know who can?00:11
mudassariceroot: I am talking in general, for any linux .......more specifically it is for CentOS00:11
calumcloudlevi: Nope, sorry.00:11
john__well, I want to get fancontrol running, but I need lm-sensors up and running first, so I went through the tut once, (maybe I missed something) and now when I type sensors, I get 1 temp00:11
john__instead of like 10 things, I get 100:11
icerootmudassar: #xen and #centos00:11

cloudleviRandom832: Wiibuntu? lol00:12
icerootMoral_: a fresh install of 9.10?00:12
Random832IIRC gamecube disks don't work in drives you can have in a computer, so you'd have to download roms illegally00:12
mudassariceroot: I was expecting this, that's why asked in general00:13
Alan502calum, dolphin runs on ubuntu00:13
calumRandom832: Its not illegal because I own the game00:13
cantomaguys, how can i have a bash shell that doesn't show the full path such as ~/latex/report. I only want to see the last directory name. If i change directory then i want to see the full path in a separate line.00:13
icerootmudassar: :)00:13
cloudleviJup jup. GC and Wii disks spin BACKWARDS!!!00:13
Random832calum: how portable? they make a screen and battery pack you can attach to a gamecube00:13
Random832(i don't know about such a thing for the wii, but wouldn't be surprised)00:13
john__they don't spin backwards00:13
Moral_iceroot, Yea I installed it, and went to install all the updates and then It maybe crashed, I wans't watching it too strictly, then I went to boot back into 31-15 or what ever kernel comes stock on 9.10 and it didnt boot then grub updated to the 31-20 kernel and thats where I got this most recent error in the pastebin.00:13
mudassariceroot: actually centos people are not replying00:13
calumAlan502: I thought it was for windows...00:13
Random832they odn't spin backwards, they read from the outside in i thought00:13
cloudlevijohn__: o_O I read that they did. Hooold up00:14
Random832so they spin the same direction but the spiral is mirrored00:14
calumRandom832: Well basically my laptop is the closest thing to dragging my gamecube around00:14
icerootmudassar: but this is ubuntu support and not xen support00:14
john__you can burn GC and Wii games using standard DVD burners and discs, if they did spin backwards, you'd need to burn them with a special drive00:14
john__I've heard that as well, but it's false00:14
icerootmudassar: you will find better answers in #xen to see how multiple isos can be used00:14

rodrigosanI have a doubt about mbr. Can I ask here?01:06
psycho_oreosrodrigosan, if its not about ubuntu, you should talk in #ubuntu-offtopic01:06
sabgreezmunkey, ok01:06
greezmunkeyConcreteRose: Depending on your network, you may be able to detect broadcasts and the like that will infer what's going on.01:07
sabpsycho_oreos, i was trying to look on the handbook of k3b help menu,but its giving me this error" There is no documentation available for /k3b/index.html."01:07

rodrigosanpsycho_oreos, becouse on my debian instalation, everything is ok, but when the installer try to write the grub on mbr isn't possibe becouse the mbr are with problems. I have the ubuntu lts 8.04 to try fix this. :(01:10

nullkuhlnullkuhl: yes, also its very unlikely that 2 isos get corrupted01:12
rodrigosanpsycho_oreos, but I can try to write on mbr if the mbr are cleaned.01:12
nullkuhlpsycho_oreos: ^^01:12
psycho_oreosnullkuhl, then again, good idea to check, and how did you go about putting it on flash drive?01:12
rodrigosanpsycho_oreos, cleaned or fixed or recovered. I don't know01:12
psycho_oreosrodrigosan, you can't really fix or recover mbr, but it can be cleared01:13
nullkuhlpsycho_oreos: for putting on flash drive, i used lili tool01:13
psycho_oreosnullkuhl, try unetbootin01:13
nullkuhlpsycho_oreos: but i get the same message even when booting from cdrom01:14
psycho_oreosrodrigosan, to clear it, search online articles on how to backup mbr, when they teach you how to back it up using dd, you just replace the if= and of= device/file01:14

maginotvanishing, you don't generate a mysql.conf in /etc/init.. this file belongs to /etc/mysql01:17
Sia--vanishing, you should stop mysqld first01:17
psycho_oreosrodrigosan, you can't test it, you have to write to it, but you can make backups and then erase the data01:17

Arch_NMEsia: it's only telling em the type of card and I want to know my driver version01:48
psycho_oreoscloudlevi, remember that same line you pasted to me something about integrated corp? and I said that piece of info is useless, what I need is the pci:id or in this case the usb:id of the device, which is on the same line as that thing you pasted01:48

chetnickMy sound driver broke after hibernation. Reboot does not help, my sound is totally gone. Any ideas?02:21
KingFishBarnabas: good luck...it's a VW.  The standard format in Windows works so that should be fine02:21
KingFishBarnabas: I'm just not sure what format that is02:22
histoJULinuxUser: yeah no real need for pae02:22
ZykoticK9JULinuxUser, sorry man - it's beyond me, and my google fu isn't giving much either.  Best of luck man!  Hope someone else can figure it out for ya.02:22

BurzmaliJULinuxUser: Restricted drivers?02:23
GadwilJULinuxUser, basically it allows a 32-bit system to use 4GB or more memory.02:23
JULinuxUserGadwil and alternatives are?02:23
GadwilJULinuxUser, use a 64bit OS.02:24
GadwilPAE stands for Physical Address Extension02:24
hiexpohttp://www.modemsite.com/56k/ltwin3.asp02:24
JULinuxUserBesides a 64 bit OS02:24
JULinuxUserwould the i386 kernal work?02:24
histoJULinuxUser: I'm using drivers from linuxant right now on the box i'm working on going to try to get those to work.02:24
BarnabasKingFish, perhaps it will play wmv and not mp3 then?02:24
GadwilJULinuxUser, PAE is the only way to use >4GB memory on a 32bit OS.  No way around it.02:24
histoJULinuxUser: but their free drivers are limited to 14k instead of 56k02:25
JULinuxUserthanks histo let me know your progress02:25
Gadwili386 I believe is 32bit no PAE... not too sure though.02:25

ZykoticK9JULinuxUser, ok - that's fine you have the headers installed correctly then02:29
Gadwilphil_, OK let me look up your computer then...02:29

histoJULinuxUser: you have to know what type of modem you have or download their install script will help you atleast identify the chipset02:31
Kazz|Awayso the short answer then is ... no there is not an easy way to enable RDP in ubunut02:31
Viking667linuxant.com used to charge for their HCF modem drivers, I think that may still be in place.02:31

Cornwallunderdev: Do you know if your BIOS supports USB booting?03:49
maggerdoes some one know how may test there is to a memory text and how long it can be ? im at test number 7 and been running that for over an hour03:50
sloopytoday, i dont know, i dont use nautilus03:50
maggermany*03:50
underdevits supposed to i tried USB-HD USB-ZIP USB-CDROM and USB-HD, none found it03:50
Dr_Willismagger:  depending on how tough you want to be . you could let it run for several days.03:50
todayallright, im using Karmic sloopy03:50
maggerso it will never end ?03:50
greezmunkeySpaceCowboy40404: did you install ndisgtk yet?03:50
magger0 error after 1 hour mean i can stop it ?03:51
bazhangunderdev, I've not had good luck with usb-creator ; you may also wish to give unetbootin a try03:51
Dr_Willismagger:  depends on what you told it. I let mine run overnight.. but normally if theres an issue. it shows up in the first few min/hrs03:51
underdevBut there was a CD i once had that loaded a bootloader, i think, that allowed you boot from a usb, even if the BIOS didn't support it03:51
SpaceCowboy40404greezmunkey i followed the directions on that link.. step by step doing exactly what it told me to do... is there a way to verify that it actually installed correctly?03:51
todaysloopy: may be make smb.conf sith SWAT? what's root password do you know?03:51
Dr_Willisunderdev:  those cd's like that - that i hae seen.. are often very kernel/disrto specific.03:52
underdevbazhang: ty, i will probably try that03:52
maggeri cant get ubuntu to install so i jsut tried the disc and memory test form the installer to narrow the problems03:52
sloopytoday, root password is undefined...03:52
maggerlook like memory is good03:52
underdevDr_Willis: thank you.  It worked with ubuntu... okay, i guess it's not really popular.. darm my poor memory...03:52
chdhi how do I get quicktime to work? I ran this command: sudo wget --output-document=/etc/apt/sources.list.d/medibuntu.list http://www.medibuntu.org/sources.list.d/$(lsb_release -cs).list && sudo apt-get --quiet update && sudo apt-get --yes --quiet --allow-unauthenticated install medibuntu-keyring && sudo apt-get --quiet update off the ubuntu help but it didn't seem to work...03:53
greezmunkeySpaceCowboy40404: if you look in synaptic, it should show you if it was installed. There is probably an apt command, but I'm not that familiar...03:53
SpaceCowboy40404lemme check synaptic then03:53
todaywith SWAT tutorial at here http://ieee.uwaterloo.ca/UsingSamba/ch02_04.html, i want to use swat to make smb.conf can you see for me sloopy03:53
maggersince no one could find a way to help me out can some one refer me to an installation problem website or something03:54
bazhangchd, quicktime trailers from apple? .mov files? something else?03:54
sloopytoday, need to put that minimal smb.conf in to try it, and make sure everything is working...03:54
chdyes bazhang quicktime trailers from apple.com03:54
todayoh, i already put that minimal smb.conf which you say, but nothing effect sloopy ^^03:54
SpaceCowboy40404greezmunkey when i do a search for synaptic for ndis it pulls them up and the check boxes for them are automatically highlighted in green shouldn't that mean they are installed?03:55
bazhangchd, you have to wget them, apple blocks linux03:55
greezmunkeyDr_Willis: do you know how to use apt? to verify that a package is installed?03:55
sloopytoday, you cant access the shares from other machines?03:55
Dr_Willisgreezmunkey:  just try to install it again?  it will say its the latest. if its allready installed.03:55
SpaceCowboy40404greezmunkey they are installed.. if i right click on them it asks me if i want to UNinstall them03:56

maggerand where will i get that ?03:58
bazhangmagger, sometimes needs to be use when livecd fails03:58
bastid_raZorbigtom21485: you can see it with acpi -V  or use something like conky03:58
Dr_Willisbigtom21485:  theres various tools to show the temps  in some sort of gadget/tool/window on the desktop. or the command line lm-sensors tools03:58

Ikloslol04:02
IklosI do appreciate the lightheartedness04:02
MoLE_Iklos, what do you get presented with?04:02
GentI had that problem on lucid which I just installed, I think it's cause of mode switching on the bootup04:03
IklosI must confess I think I caused it04:03
Dr_Willistoday:  if you just want to transfer a few files  and dont want to mess about. You could install sshd on ubuntu, and use winscp on windows to copy stuff back and forth.04:03
sultanlucid beta, however I installed karmic now and I am using it right now04:03
sloopytoday, does the XP machine show anything in the network neighborhood?04:03
todayi try to testparm here http://paste.ubuntu.com/411910/04:03
underdevmagger: did you find it?04:03
omahasteakIkos: what do you think you did to cause it.04:03
IklosI tried to get the easter egg of "free the fish"04:03
Iklosso i alt + f2 and got free the fish04:03
Iklosthen said fish got annoying04:03
todayi thing samba is good idea Dr_Willis( is that right?)04:03
Iklosnot knowing a solution, I googlefuud one04:03
Dr_Willistoday:  it totally depends on your exact needs.04:03
zamabehallo, problem, ubuntu 9.10 will not boot for me without a keyboard. This is a problem. It will show me the ubuntu loadin logo and all, but does not advance to a GUI login screen or the such, it just gives a black screen.04:04
todayoffcourse( with MSHOME)04:04
Dr_Willistoday:  I use samba, and it works decently well for me. but i have a small home lan and share lots of stuff back and forth.04:04
Iklosa solution was given, something to the effect of "gnome panel --replace" or something similar04:04
Dr_Willistoday:  samba can also be a pain to trouble shoot.04:04
IklosI would have thought this would restart the gnome panel04:04
lava1Dr_Willis: I connected my vga cabel to TV and hit fn+f8 but still i dont see display on my TV. After connecting an if i restart, while restarting iam seeing Ubuntu logo and then no display on tv04:04
Dr_Willistoday:  as i said. if you just want a few files back and forth and dont need  a perment 'share' you could use winscp04:04
SpaceCowboy40404greezmonkey I restarted and Windows Wireless Drivers still isn't showing up under: System->Administration->04:05
Iklosmy current screen presents the lovely brown backdrop, but no login box or bottom panel04:05
sloopytoday, and your machine doesnt show up on the XP machine with minimal smb.conf?04:05
IklosI had previously tried loging in under safe mode, which, through ncurses i got in fine04:05
omahasteakWill a partition of XP cause a ubuntu box to crash for no reason?04:06
todayi dont ask to other pc sloopy, i want to complete my samba  problem now04:06
Iklosunfortuntaely im not a CLI master and tend to like my x11 apps04:06
Dr_Willislava1:  use the fn buttons to turn on the monitor. and then try the system  -> preferaces -> Monitors (or was it displays?) tool to see if 2+ montors are seem04:06
Dr_Willislava1:  if you are using the vga out.. then techincally you are atatching 2 Monitors. Not a monitor + tv out.04:06
sloopytoday, what are you trying to accomplish in samba?04:06
todayDr_Willis: i reaylly dont know that app, im trying to fix my samba config error , if you have experience with samba, Could you help me plzz04:07
PurpleyIm creating a user via terminal and its asking for what shell is /dev/bash good?04:07

greezmunkeySpaceCowboy40404: That bytes...I'll goog to see if I can find anything useful - I haven't had to use ndiswrapper yet. But, I want to know more about it, brb04:08
Dr_Willistoday:   i normally install the samba packages, edit the smb.conf file to enable the HOME shares.. and then give each user a samba password wth 'sudo smbpasswd -a username'   and restart the service.. it then works for me.04:08
Ikloswhois MoLE_04:08
todaywait me a minutes, my father call04:08
underdevIf i made a bootable USB with unetbootin, will i be able to save files and add packages to it?04:08

SpaceCowboy40404greezmunkey ok04:08
Purpleyunderdev: only if you make it a persistent usb thumbdrive04:08
MoLE_Iklos, I am me!04:08

IklosMoLE_   -  "gnome-panel --replace" was what I typed - the panel went away, so I figured a restart would bring it back.  Now unfortunately, I am missing the window to loging with, and the panel at the bottom of the login screen.04:11

ubottuHi! 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!04:28
MoLE_cloud, can you be more specific about the problem?04:29
SpaceCowboy40404greezmunkey it should... i just bought it today at walmart... lemme try the drivers on the installation cd instead of the drivers im using from linksys's website04:29
bazhangmagger, the up and down arrows and tab/enter keys are what you use04:29
greezmunkeySpaceCowboy40404: That's the way to do it!04:29
bazhangmagger, ie no mouse04:29
nullkuhlis it possible to tell cpu/gpu/mb temperature in ubunty if its managed by ACPI and not OS ?04:29
maggerthank you i tough it would be alil more tricky.. so i jsut boot on the cd aswell..04:29
Purpleyziroday: Might my ip address be listed in the cfg file?04:29
zirodayPurpley: http://denyhosts.sourceforge.net/faq.html#3_704:29
tachiro1anyone know of a good simple but powerful audio converter for ubuntu?04:29
MoLE_Iklos, can you login now?04:29
cloudmole: =/ I have a Bluetooth device. When I try to connect it, the computer gives me a number to punch in via the device, as if I were trying to connect a cellphone or PDA. Unfortunately most Bluetooth devices don't HAVE that capability.04:29
DunstiI want to make a "clean" reinstall of my system, and want to make a backup first - what directories should I backup? (sorry, I'm new to Ubuntu)04:29
BaramI'm rebuilding a failed system, I've managed to recover almost the entire /home, should I put it in place before I reinstall (/home being a seperate partition) or should I do it after reinstall?04:30
Purpleyziroday: Thanks alot :)04:30
hiexpoSpaceCowboy40404,  what did ya buy at wally world wifi dongle linksys?04:30
Captain_LongWhen I'm booting it tells me to go to a certain website to install these drivers or something, but it goes by too quickly for me to catch it.04:30
zirodayPurpley: no problems04:30
zamabehmm, i can't get a GUI on boot without a keyboard plugged in =/04:30
zirodayCaptain_Long: is it a graphical popup or a text message?04:30
IklosMoLE_ -   no - still brown, but no login screen04:30
greezmunkeyhiexpo: he has a Linksys WPC54g, broadcom PCMCIA card.04:31
Purpleyziroday: Also would it be considered foolish and unsafe or bad practice to make my local networks ip addresses immune?04:31
Captain_LongZiroday: This is before I even reach the "ubuntu is loading" screen, just a few lines of text that pop up.04:31
Captain_LongNot an actual graphic.04:31
hiexpogreezmunkey, i wont work04:31
SpaceCowboy40404hiexpo its linksys wpc54g pcmia wireless card04:31
W43372I can't get Ubuntu to mount my windows network.04:31
zirodayPurpley: *shrug* I just use a ssh certificate in all honesty, I don't rely on password based logins04:31
SpaceCowboy40404greezmunkey no dice with the drivers form the cd either04:31
hiexpoit won't work04:31
zirodayCaptain_Long: okay, can you pastebin your /var/log/syslog, the message should be in there04:31
MoLE_cloud, I don't have any direct experience with that (all my bluetooth devices have a way of entering data), but I would imagine that the bluetooth pin is hardcoded to the device.  If you know the number, there is a way of telling Ubuntu that number so the association can be made.04:32
SpaceCowboy40404hiexpo why not?04:32
Purpleyziroday: Does that mean you can only connect to the server if you have the certificate on your computer?04:32
greezmunkeyhiexpo: Tell us a story about that card please.04:32
zirodayPurpley: yep04:32
hiexpothey changed the chipset04:32
Captain_LongZiroday: Rather difficult, since I haven't actually been to connect to the net yet.04:32
cloudMoLE_: Does it normally ask for the input thing anyway if the04:32
cloudmole: ... if the PIN is invalid?04:33
Purpleyziroday: Ahhh I can't use that :/ I travel often and cant be pained to remeber a usb thumbdrive :)04:33
MoLE_Iklos, I would try rebooting the computer and selecting 'repair mode' from the grub screen.  The menu should offer you a means of fixing a broken xorg.04:33
greezmunkeySpaceCowboy40404: If that's true, at least WallMart has a decent return policy.04:33
zirodayCaptain_Long: ah. Wired or wireless?04:33
ShadowKnighthey, i came across a problem right now. for some reason my keyboard doesnt work. it is only in ubuntu gde that it happened everything else works fine04:33
ShadowKnighti know it said something about slow keys or something. idk what to do, any help?04:33
Captain_LongWireless04:33
hiexpomaybe with a wrapper but that is useless04:33
zirodayPurpley: sure, its not a suitable fit for everyone :)04:33
zirodayCaptain_Long: okay, what wireless card?04:33
=== zz_FeiRuoWa is now known as FeiRuoWa
MoLE_cloud, what do you mean "if the PIN is invalid"04:33
Viking667ShadowKnight: sounds like you have to turn SlowKeys back off again.04:33
IklosMoLE_   -   yeah - I was just gonna say that a startx revealed taht x was the problem04:33
zirodayCaptain_Long: and what version of ubuntu04:33
IklosMoLE_   -    ill work on it04:33
SpaceCowboy40404greezmunkey once you open it.. its yours... for good.. this sux04:33
Viking667ShadowKnight: and that bit, I don't know how to do...04:33
cloudmole: if I use the wrong PIN..04:33
Captain_Longziroday: I couldn't tell you the card, but it's 9.1004:34
cloudmole: Nevermid, there -is- no PIN...04:34
ShadowKnightokay thanks viking66704:34
zirodayCaptain_Long: sure, if you do lspci | grep -i network you should see some mention of a wireless card04:34
SpaceCowboy40404hiexpo is that just with all linksys cards or just that particular card?04:34
MoLE_cloud, then that would be a violation of the bluetooth standard I suspect, as I'm not sure that a 'null' PIN is legal.04:35
Dr_Willis0000 is not Null. :)04:35
Captain_LongZiroday: I'm frankly not sure how to do that. *headscratch* Real nublet here. No worries, though, I'm not a moron.04:36
Berzerkerhaving a null pin would probably be the safest, since you can't type nothing into the pin thing anyway04:36
cloudguide says there's no PIN04:36
MoLE_cloud, have you had a look at his page in the wiki https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CWiiD04:37
zirodayCaptain_Long: oh sure sorry, Go to Applications > Terminal and then type in "lspci" and search for any mention of your wireless card04:37
W43372I can't get Ubuntu to mount my windows network.04:37
cloudNope, thanks04:37
hiexpojust that card but you have to be careful things are changing with linlsys there cards use to be assumed great but do to regulations there not open cards like they were //// i always do a check on model number and version before i buy them04:37
MoLE_cloud, this google search turned up that link http://www.google.com.au/search?sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8&q=pair+wii+remote+with+ubuntu04:38
cloud"couldn't find package libcwiid0"04:38
serephfor some reason im not able to connect to wifi, its not giving me any errors i just enter the key and wait for a while and it asks for the key again04:38
meowbuntuhi i am having this weird error with ubuntu today. i cant install anything. http://pastebin.com/spam.php?i=UgbQe4bZ04:38
SpaceCowboy40404greezmunkey / hiexpo ... any reccomendations for a card to buy that i can just plug into the pcmia slot and it will work with no problems04:39
Captain_LongZiroday: Network Controller?04:39
hiexpobecause just because the model is ok does not mean anything the next version could be a blank because they changed the chipset04:39
zirodayCaptain_Long: sure, what does it say?04:39
MoLE_cloud, do you have all the repositories enabled?  Including Universe, restricted and multiverse?  (Go to Software sources and check)04:39
greezmunkeyW43372: sorry about that, do you have a hosts file on your winboxes? \windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts.txt I believe?04:39
hiexpoSpaceCowboy40404, let me look04:39
Captain_LongNetwork controller: broadcom coroporation BCM4311 802.11b/g WLAN (rev 01)04:39
cloudmole: don't know what those are.04:39
* gent destroys nVidia04:40
=== gent is now known as Gent
MoLE_cloud, go to system, administration, software sources04:40
greezmunkeyW43372: that file may not have an extension04:40
zirodayCaptain_Long: perfect, that's your wireless card. Now how did you install ubuntu?04:40
SpaceCowboy40404captain long.. thats the same card i have that we just found out dont work04:40
MoLE_cloud, go through the tabs and have a look at which sources you have checked04:40
W43372greezmunkey, yes, hosts has04:40
Captain_LongCurrently just on the live cd. Figured it was wise to figure out the net before actually going through with installation.04:41
greezmunkeyW43372: is there a line that says localhost?04:41
SpaceCowboy40404captain long.. is that card working for you?04:41
IklosMoLE_ - I went to recovery mode and tried the dpckg thing to clean something up - it ran, and then i logged in as root and typed "startx"  I was then presented with the default ubuntu screen.  I went under system, switch user, and was presented with the error "Unable to start new Display -  the name org.gnome.DisplayManager was not provided by any .service files"04:41
Captain_LongSpaceCowboy: Couldn't say. Never connected to the net using Ubuntu before.04:42
W43372greezmunkey lmhosts04:42
greezmunkeyW43372: no hosts?04:42
SpaceCowboy40404captain long i have the same card and have been trying to get it to work for about an hour now and found out that it wont work for ubuntu04:42
W43372greezmunkey there is hosts and lmhosts04:42
zirodayCaptain_Long: ah right, well if you are still on the livecd then you probably can't install the drivers to get the wireless card working as it requires a reboot. However I'm reasonably certain that card works with ubuntu04:42
cloudmole: uh...04:42
MoLE_Iklos, that's not the option you want - you probably don't need to clean up dpkg, you need the option to reset the xorg settings (further down the list if i remember)04:42
Captain_LongSpaceCowboy: That would be my luck.04:42
cloudmole: apparently none o_O04:42
zirodaySpaceCowboy40404: it sounds like you are doing something wrong :)04:43
SpaceCowboy40404ziroday.... hiexpo says it wont04:43
hiexpoSpaceCowboy40404,  - the best i will do is give you a  link that will tell all that i get a  lot of my info from is aircrack-ng and go to compatibility04:43
SpaceCowboy40404ziroday if i am please help04:43
zirodaySpaceCowboy40404: what drivers have you installed?04:43
Captain_LongZiroday: Bah. Say, just a moment. Is the "key" the same as the password?04:43
bazhangSpaceCowboy40404, check the chipset then, bcm should most clearly work04:43
SpaceCowboy40404i tried the propriety and the ndis othing04:43
zirodayCaptain_Long: key?04:43
hiexpoif its compatible it will be there04:43
cloudmole: ...selecting the ones that were there seems to have done nothing04:43
_pg_does anyone have experience making bootable usb stick of ubuntu from osx disk utility? I have done it befiore but cannot now and its driving me mad04:43
zirodaySpaceCowboy40404: right, well what does "lsmod | grep wl" turn up?04:44
Captain_LongCreate new wireless network:04:44
SpaceCowboy40404hieziroday lemme check04:44
Captain_LongConnection: Network Name: wireless security: keyL:04:44
zirodayCaptain_Long: ah yes, when it says key it means password. Is this a WEP encrypted access point?04:44
W43372greezmunkey there is hosts and lmhosts04:44
greezmunkeyW43372: open hosts with notepad, and edit the line that says localhost it should say localhost then some spaces, or a tab, then the machine name - preferably the same name of the machine which can be foud by typing "net config workstation" in a dos window04:44
MoLE_cloud, you need to check all the boxes for the 4 basic repositories and then close the software sources, then it will prompt you to reload your software index04:44
hiexpoSpaceCowboy40404, what version is yours before i blaber my mouth    ?04:44
greezmunkeyW43372: that make sense to you?04:45
Viking667just don't select backports or testing04:45
cloudmole: which tab?04:45
W43372greezmunkey, Yes. Yes, it does.04:45
SpaceCowboy40404ziroday... this is what that gives: http://paste.ubuntu.com/411920/04:45
hiexpoits on the card ver04:45
Captain_LongZiroday: Couldn't say. The guy in charge is pretty clueless. I have the patience for arbitrary checking.04:45
* Viking667 heads off to walk into SL for a wander.04:45
SpaceCowboy40404hiexpo version 104:45
IklosMoLE_  -  I dont have that option for some reason afaik   -  my options are   "  Resume    Clean     Dpkg      Grub      Netroot     Root"04:45
_pg_oes anyone have experience making bootable usb stick of ubuntu from osx disk utility? I have done it befiore but cannot now and its driving me mad04:45
hiexpook 1 sec04:45
MoLE_Iklos, what version of ubuntu are you running?04:46
zirodaySpaceCowboy40404: okay, can you pastebin the contents of /var/log/syslog and the output of the commands "ifconfig -a" and "lshw -C network" please04:46
IklosMoLE_   -   9.1004:46
serephfor some reason im not able to connect to wifi, its not giving me any errors i just enter the key and wait for a while and it asks for the key again, it worked on my home network but this network it isnt working for some reason04:46
ShazbotMcNasty_pg_, have you tried unetbootin?04:46
SpaceCowboy40404ziroday ok04:46
zirodayCaptain_Long: sure, no worries then04:46
W43372greezmunkey I have 127.0.0.1 as localhost04:46
ironfoot495Hello I need some help . I can't open my display on ubuntu 9.10.04:47
Captain_LongLet me know if any of them require special steps. Should be pretty standard though. This is the boonies, no need for the latest NSA encryption.04:47
greezmunkeyW43372: Thats good make it say 127.0.0.1 localhosts {your machine name here} all on the same line04:47
histois there a way to switch to a user with out a password?04:47
MoLE_Iklos, I'm sorry but I'm lost as to where you are at with the boot menu - I presume you have already selected the second entry on the grub screen "recovery"04:47
histoi'm trying su faxmaster because the faxmaster has mail04:47
greezmunkeyW43372: localhost, not localhosts04:47
_pg_ShazbotMcNasty: that is a last resort-I HAVE done it before in osx disk utility. I dont know why Im having trouble all of a sudden04:47
_pg_ShazbotMcNasty: thanks though :D04:48
zirodayCaptain_Long: not that I know off, only wpa2-enterprise can get a little sticky, but I doubt you are using that04:48
ironfoot495I have the terminal display but can't get the graphical display???04:48
IklosMoLE_  indeed   -  im then led to a blue screen with the aforementioned options.04:48
ShazbotMcNasty_pg_, why don't you want to use unetbootin?04:48
* sereph thinks hes gonna need to just install windows...04:48
ShazbotMcNastyI mean.. it's super easy, and works every time.04:48
Captain_LongZiroday: We're likely pretty good then. I've just selected to begin installation.04:48
W43372greezmunkey do I use the brackets? What good does that do if 127.0.0.1 isn't the IP on the network?04:48
_pg_ShazbotMcNasty: cause that would require a reboot. and I have a ton of things cooking here in osx04:48
ironfoot495The mouse Icon comes up but goes directly to the terminal Display!!04:49
Captain_LongNothing seems to be happening though. . .04:49
_pg_ShazbotMcNasty: plus, i will need to do it more in the future and just like it is driving me insane. it should be so simple04:49
zirodayCaptain_Long: awesome! Basically after you've installed you need to re-insert the CD and add it as a software source in System > Administration > Software Sources and then run System > Hardware Drivers04:49
IklosMoLE_   -  I should mention that I'm dual boot Vista and 9.10 and that my 9.10 has several kernal versions hanging around AND Im using what I still believe is the beta version of grubs04:49
ironfoot495Is there a way to fix this???04:49
ShazbotMcNasty_pg_, it only requires a reboot when you are booting it04:49
greezmunkeyW43372: example line: 127.0.0.1 localhost winbox104:49
zirodayCaptain_Long: give it a sec :)04:49
MoLE_Iklos, Odd Not sure why they removed the xorg fix option04:49
_pg_ShazbotMcNasty: i would have to reboot into windows to use unetbootin04:49
Iklos>.>;04:49
ShazbotMcNastyironfoot495, in terminal type 'startx'04:49
ShazbotMcNastyoh04:49
SpaceCowboy40404ziroday... here ya go: http://paste.ubuntu.com/411923/04:49
MoLE_I will have to check my 9.10 install04:49
ironfoot495I've got a lot of files I'm trying to keep from loosing??04:49
greezmunkeyW43372: save that then from a dos window ping winbox1, see what happens04:49
ShazbotMcNastyI wasn't sure if you could use the unetbootin bin in osx04:49
ShazbotMcNastysince it is nuix/bsd based...04:50
zirodaySpaceCowboy40404: you need to do "cat /var/log/syslog", sorry04:50
Dr_WillisShazbotMcNasty:  it also has windows binaries. - but ive neer seen os-x ones04:50
_pg_ShazbotMcNasty: afaik there is only a windows version04:50
W43372greezmunkey wouldn't it be 192.168.1.2 localhost Carrier seeing as that's the IP of the winbox on the network?04:50
zirodaySpaceCowboy40404: also can you do "lsmod" please04:50
greezmunkeyW43372: Do you give your PCs static addresses?04:50
ironfoot495I typed startx and it says server error!04:50
ShazbotMcNastyafaik?04:50
ShazbotMcNastyironfoot495, then you broke something04:51
hiexpoOK if you get that card to work your a magician unless your using a wrapper04:51
ShazbotMcNasty_pg_, well there is a linux version...04:51
kermitis there a way to make a copy-on-write file?04:51
W43372greezmunkey no, but that's what the IP is and has been for a while.04:51
zirodaySpaceCowboy40404: is the wireless card detected by network manager?04:51
Captain_LongBah, I'm an impatient one.04:51
ironfoot495ShazbotMcNasty: can you help me?04:51
ShazbotMcNastybut you're in osx..04:51
ShazbotMcNastyironfoot495, well I don't know what you did.04:51
ShazbotMcNastyWhat'd you do before it broke?04:51
greezmunkeyW43372: Then do that, it's ok04:51
_pg_ShazbotMcNasty: indeed-huff04:51
ironfoot495I fsck and when it came back I had no graphical screen??04:51
SpaceCowboy40404ziroday.. here ya go: http://paste.ubuntu.com/411924/   and the card is not seen in the network manager04:52
ShazbotMcNastyironfoot495, you formatted your hard drive?04:52
ironfoot495no04:52
ShazbotMcNastyoh04:52
ShazbotMcNasty'repair'04:52
ShazbotMcNastyuhmm yeah04:52
ironfoot495I'd loose data if I did that?04:52
ShazbotMcNastywell it obviously broke something04:52
ShazbotMcNastyit's very possible04:52
ironfoot495The mouse Icon comes up but after that I get the terminal screen.04:53
SpaceCowboy40404ziroday here is the other you wanted: http://paste.ubuntu.com/411926/04:53

meoblast001i need to replace my Intel GPU drivers on this system of mine, what is a sane way to do that?05:14
aliendude3500Hi... I'm having trouble getting Compiz to start, but I KNOW my system is more than capable of compositioning. It worked before some Lucid updates.05:14
swoodyRotor_: go into synaptic, and remove anything with reference to those two, and restart your browser :)05:14
rm200910Luis_: can you tell more? Are the files erased?05:14
meoblast001i believe there is a bug in this version of the driver that is preventing my software from running correctly05:15
Rotor_swoody will do thnx05:15
swoodyRotor_: np, let me know if that works :)05:15

meoblast001oh no, my driver is defective05:21
Luis_rm200910: I tried see what I have, but only show> lost+found05:21
meoblast001should i uninstall the driver in Synaptic, and recompile it with prefix /usr?05:21
rm200910Luis_: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-464145.html seems to explain how to keep your settings on a USB between sessions. If that's what you want05:22
Dr_WillisSpaceCowboy40404:  last 4 laptops ive tried with ubuntu.. i was suprised the wireless worked ith no hassles.05:22
rm200910Luis_: the lost+found directory is a standard Linux thing in most file systems05:22

hiexpoubuntufreak, whats wrong?05:41
CornwallCoburn: oh, how sad05:41
swoodytawm: lol, when does it ever work 'normally'? ;)05:41
CornwallCoburn: I don't know Fluxbox's requirements, but I think they're pretty darn low05:41
tawmswoody: after i punch it in the face for about 5 hours05:41
geekphreakswoody: ubuntu works normally for me :) , i screw up sometime heh :)05:42
swoodylol05:42
geekphreakswoody:  gets the feeling you been there lol05:42
swoodygeekphreak: a time or two ;)05:42
CornwallCoburn: Also, LXDE says that the requirements are the same as windows 98, so maybe you could go with the PPC version of Lubuntu :)05:43
Coburntawm: I suggest you stick away from Windows: It wouldn't work for ya, mate05:43
maggerthat nasty bug about screen flcikering after a fresh install need fix05:43
swoodygeekphreak: that's half the fun, messing up your system so you can figure out how to fix it05:43
tawmdoes anyone have opinions on using rsync vs software raid1 for local data protection from hardware failure05:43
CoburnCornwall: Now that's a idea!05:43
airtonixmeowbuntu, i dont know how complicated you want your find replace, but there is a proper regex plugin for gedit floating around somwhere05:43
CornwallCoburn: Just don't use Firefox or Open Office :P05:43
geekphreakswoody: but i belive in , if it aint broke, dont fix it :)05:43
tawmCoburn: sadly i support windows at work and frequently it just doesn't work05:43

CoburnInstallation Finished on my Macbook of Ubuntu 1005:44
CoburnBRB peeps05:44
airtonixCornwall, its not so clear cut like that, for example : the intrusion detection program : arpwatch will garunteed eat 100% of your cpu... and its a tiny program in file size.05:44
meowbuntuCoburn, there was another similar error fixed that now it seems to be installing fine05:44
maggerhey jsut a lil question there , can you guyz get wireless internet adaptor to work on ubuntu yet ? i looked into it a few month ago and couldnt figure it out05:44
je2345is some1 able to direct me on how to access music on my hard drive but with windows 705:44
underdevDr_Willis: are you there?05:45
Dr_Willisunderdev:  hmm? I pop in and out all day05:45
airtonixje2345, ask this on #windows05:45
je2345m wireless worked perfect right after ubuntu booted up05:45
tawmmagger: you will have to be more specific05:45
Cornwallairtonix: I'm sure his processor is more than 500 Mhz...05:45
underdevYou've helped me many times, maybe i can return a favor.  Have you ever ran into the plop boot manager?05:45
airtonixCornwall, my desktop is a core duo 2.3ghz and arpwatch brings it to its knees05:45
hiexpomagger,  what card?05:45
tawmmagger: lots of them work. have you checked to see if your specific hardware is supported by ubuntu?05:46
maggerwell.. by default it was not supported05:46
maggerwould be plug and play in backtrack tho05:46
Cornwallairtonix: Who said he's even going to use it?05:46
maggerlong time isnce i looked into it05:46
Cornwallairtonix: I've run Xubuntu just fine on old PPCs under 1 Ghz05:46
W43372I can't get Ubuntu to mount my windows network.05:46
maggeri cant recall my card specifics info05:46
CornwallAnd Lubuntu is even less intensive05:46
hiexpoSpaceCowboy can u guys us a usb card05:47

teguhmy xubuntu is slowly, cpu look sleep, how to increase speed..?05:47
aliciapgdoes anyone know how to limit file size with mencoder?05:47
maggerwell time to smoke up while that other live cd is downlaoding.. been the worst ubuntu installation night in history im telling you05:47
underdevDr_Willis: the PLoP boot loader will find any generic bootable USB drive and boot from it if the computers BIOS doesn't support booting from USB05:47
airtonixCornwall, think you missed the point05:47
magger!ot05:48
ubottu#ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks!05:48
underdevDr_Willis: regardless of distro05:48
Dr_Willisaliciapg:  check the mencoder faq/docs - i recall some option to reencode a video to a set size  like 700mb. but i forget the details.05:48
Cornwallairtonix: He can't run super intensive programs. Is that it? I'm not getting you05:48
aliciapgDr_Willis: did that, example doesn't work for me05:48
airtonixCornwall, no, you wont be able to tell if a program is going to eat your cpu until you try it.05:48
Dr_Willisaliciapg:  i recall it only worked for some specific codecs/options also. ive never r4eally tried it. I recall some GUI front ends having the option also.,05:48
Dr_Willisaliciapg:  mencoder forums may have some other examples also.05:49
aliciapgDr_Willis: nope only seems to have one05:49
imp|catavidemux can encode to a set size with certain codecs and two pass encoding05:49
Cornwallairtonix: You're not making sense. Okay, so you can't. Does that mean I shouldn't try any programs because I'm on a poor Hyperthreading processor? I'm not true dual-core, maybe I can't handle it!05:49
SpaceCowboy40404ziroday is awesome05:50
Cornwallairtonix: again: I ran Xubuntu just fine on an ibook 700 Mhz PPC05:50
SpaceCowboy40404im on  my wireless now'05:50
airtonixCornwall, dont get upset. im saying you dont judge a book by its cover.05:50
zirodaySpaceCowboy40404: hehe, turns out the issue was really easy to fix :)05:50
Dr_Willisaliciapg:  i seem to recall like imp|cat  said also. it needs 2 pass encoding.  and only with specific codecs.  Could be their docs/faq is out of date and incorrect.05:50
SpaceCowboy40404what was it05:50
Cornwallairtonix: Then you should have said that in the first place :)05:50
SpaceCowboy40404i just copied and pasted05:50
greezmunkeySpaceCowboy40404: whaa?05:51
hiexpoSpaceCowboy40404, ure working?05:51
Cornwallairtonix: I'm not saying it's going to be amazing, but you sounded like it just won't work. Period. Because you have some monitoring program that he's not going to use05:51
SpaceCowboy40404yepper on wirelss as we speak05:51
aliciapgimp|cat: well how would i do that with avidemux? i couldn't find a way to set that05:51
tawmmagger: i think you could boot a live cd and with the wifi card plugged in do a ifconfig and that would show you what network adapters are on and what there status is05:51
underdevIs it normal that making a live USB drive takes a long time?  Or is a sandisk cruizer 8g a slow USB stick?05:51
SpaceCowboy40404apperantl;y you have to left click the network manager icon in the upper right and actually connect to the ssid05:52
Cornwallunderdev: It usually take 5 minutes max for me05:52
je2345i have to go to #windows to ask a question about music on windows but want to access while using Ubuntu05:52
greezmunkeySpaceCowboy40404: dude! :)05:52
hiexpohow and what ver of card?05:52
SpaceCowboy40404LOL05:52
Cornwallunderdev: and I have some pretty clunky hardware05:52
greezmunkeyheh05:52
Dr_Willisunderdev:  the creation of a 'save file' can take a long time - depeing on the size you set.05:52
SpaceCowboy40404same one .. version 105:52
SpaceCowboy40404i think05:52
underdevCornwall: this is a phenom iix4- rats!!!05:52
greezmunkeySpaceCowboy40404: there it is, and you were ready to give up!05:52
hiexpoit cant be ver was 200405:52
swoodyje2345: you shouldn't have any problems accessing a Windows partition from Ubuntu. Is it not working for you?05:52
imp|cataliciapg, let me start avidemux and we'll see... Just a moment.05:53
underdevDr_Willis: okay, it's 4 gigs05:53
airtonixSpaceCowboy40404 , there is an option within the settings for that SSID to allow it to auto connect (right under the SSID name you give it at the top)05:53
Dr_Willis thats whats taking so long. its making an empty 4gb file.05:53
SpaceCowboy40404cya later vista and i'm never buying windows 7 or the next new flavor of each damn month05:53
Cornwallunderdev: yikes :)05:53
Cornwallunderdev: have you tried unetbootin? that's a pretty neat program in the repos05:53
hiexpoSpaceCowboy40404,  i am so happy 4 u but ver 1 was 4 years ago05:53
SpaceCowboy40404i appreciate everyones help.... greezymonkey, hiexpo. and ziroday05:54
underdevCornwall: yeah, but i kept getting a problem that FD0 wasn't detected05:54
underdevCornwall: at your suggestion i used it :)05:54
Cornwallunderdev: at my suggestion? Do I have an alternate form?05:54
Dr_Willisunetbootin does not support the creation of a perisstant save file. (yet)05:54
* aliciapg waits for imp|cat 05:55
SpaceCowboy40404i got version one from the commands greezymonkey had me try.... when i tried to use ndis i used the drivers form the install cd for the card and that didnt work either05:55
underdevCornwall: sorry, someone else had suggested it.  i thought it was you :)05:55
CornwallDr_Willis: Yeah, but It's never not worked for me :D05:55
SpaceCowboy40404when i switched back to the propriatry drivers and then actually connected to the ssid thats when it worked05:55
Cornwallunderdev: No worries :)05:55

histotopland: Do you know what chipset your wifi card uses?07:02
aetarichey, i added a scsi drive to my live ubuntu box. it should show up as sdc in /dev yet i don't see it. do i need to reboot for it to showup? or can i just run the udev scripts in /etc/init.d ?07:02
Curly_QTopland is your Atheros card a PCMCIA card?07:02
histoaetaric: did you mount the drive?07:02
histo!fstab | aetaric07:03
ubottuaetaric: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab and http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions07:03
aetarichisto: ... the drive isn't in /dev fstab won't help me.07:03

ZenMasta_need some help installing pdo and pdo_mysql i get a message sh: phpsize not found07:04
ryanc_okay07:04
histo!info pdo07:04
ubottuPackage pdo does not exist in karmic07:04
Curly_QThose folks make the ORINOCO golden PCMCIA card. I have one here. It cost about $300.00 then. It has a very powerful RF signal.07:05
ZenMasta_histo if that was directed at me, I don't know what I'm supposed to do07:05
histoZenMasta_: I was just trying to figure otu what pdo is and if its availible in the repos07:05
ZenMasta_oh, it has something to do with web servers07:06
ZenMasta_I've been trying to follow various guides on the web and some mention getting the error, but no solution07:06
histoZenMasta_: I gathered that do you have a website or how are you trying to install it?07:06
ZenMasta_sudo pecl install pdo07:06
aetaricZenMasta_: server support is in #ubuntu-server07:07
ZenMasta_thanks I'll try that07:07
histoZenMasta_: hold up i'm checking something07:07
ZenMasta_k07:07
histoaetaric: not really a server question he's just trying to install a package.07:07
ZenMasta_brb 1 min07:08
themeccould somebody tell me how i would change my hosts file in ubuntu?07:09
Lostinspace_46histo, Yes! Much better. Thanks again.07:09
Curly_QUsing a PCMCIA card on a laptop is great.07:09
Dr_Willisthemec:  its a text file.. edit it as root.. MAKE A BACKUP07:09
aetarichisto: the package is "server" related and therefore belongs in #ubuntu-server07:09
histoZenMasta_: when did you get the error installing pdo or pdo_mysql?07:09
ZykoticK9themec, one option would be to run "gksu gedit /etc/hosts"07:10
ZykoticK9themec, but Dr_Willis backup suggestion is good council07:10
histoaetaric: true that I guess07:10
ZenMasta_hiso haven't tried pdo_mysql yet so just pdo07:10
ZenMasta_I just assumed I should install in sequence07:11

sine_how do i combine binary files please i.e me1.mp3+me2.mp307:16
sine_is it cat07:16
kermitsine_: mp3wrap07:16
sine_no i can do it like binary join07:16
kermitsine_: but cat will work for real mp3 files.. mp3wrap is designed to work with tagged ones.07:16
sine_dos was cp /b *.mp307:17
Churchyou can with cat. but be careful if file format isn't exactly made for binary concatenation and has clearly marked beginning/end07:17
Curly_QDr Willis, guess what, I do backup my backups. There is an old Computer Proverb: "Happy are those who save"  After the Bible Beatitudes Happy are those who are saved.    :)07:17
ZenMasta_any idea what would cause wireless networks to keep dropping?07:18
Curly_QZenMasta      Signal Strength and Encryption.07:18
crypt-0good lord, i actually read everything Curly_Q said...then i realized there was /IGNORE07:18
Dr_Willissine_:  use the 'cat' command07:18
Dr_Willissine_:  cat foo bar > foobar07:18
voss749In linux systems you back up documents photos and videos, music etc everything else is pretty much reinstallable07:18
ZenMasta_Curly_Q yeah you'd think except I'm literally 2 feet from the router.... and when I boot to windows it never drops07:19
sine_it does not delete the source files does it ?07:19
Dr_Willissine_:  bash basics..  no.07:19
Dr_Williscat foo > bar    copies foo to bar07:19
banshee_Howcome it seems that my video settings don't save? (Using Nvidia X Server Settings)07:19
paventraz1: i would asume thats the ubuntu gnome key ring. it a locker for your passwords, so that a person can't sitt down at you computer and use you pasword protected services.07:19
voss749zenmasta what kind of nic?07:19
Dr_Willisbanshee_:  you may need to run the nvidia-settings tool as root via gksudo nvidia-settings07:20
ZenMasta_integrated probably intel07:20
Curly_QZenMasta, are you doing a:  http://www.192.168.*.*       ?07:20
ZenMasta_yeah just a regular home lan07:20
traz1is the gnome keyring pasword the same as my user password?07:20
Curly_QI see.07:20
histotraz1: yes07:20
Curly_QZenMasta do you have physical access to the router?07:21
ZenMasta_yeah i'm connecte physically right now07:21
Curly_QZenMasta Just a worning but if you follow this instruction, you may lose all settings. But, you can either re-boot or  re-fresh the BIOS of the router box.07:22
crypt-0Curly_Q, i use TELNET to get into my router sometimes OpenSSH_5.1p1 Debian-6ubuntu2, OpenSSL 0.9.8g 19 Oct 200707:22
ZenMasta_Curly_Q yeah I'll pass I mostly use windows so not worth the hassle :/07:22
Curly_QZenMaster so what you are saying is you are doing this remotely?07:23
ZenMasta_no i dual boot my laptop07:24
Curly_QZenMaster if you have physical access to the box you have full control over it.07:24
banshee_When I click "Save to X Configuration file" it says, Failed to parse existing X config file '/etc/X11/xorg.conf'! How do I fix this?07:24
banshee_When I click "Save to X Configuration file" it says, Failed to parse existing X config file '/etc/X11/xorg.conf'! How do I fix this?07:24
Dr_Willisbanshee_:  save it to a differnt file, then copy it over to /etc/X11/xorg.conf   is one way07:25
ZykoticK9banshee_, move your current /etc/X11/xorg.conf* files to a safe location, then run "sudo nvidia-xconfig" then rerun the nvidia-settings and it should save07:25
Dr_Willisbanshee_:  that issue has been fixed in 10.04 i belive. :) *yea*07:25
ZenMasta_Curly_Q just to make sure we're on the same page, this isn't a pfsense or monowall, its just a consumer grade netgear07:26
banshee_Sorry im new, you say files ,which files do i need to move07:26
ZykoticK9banshee_, there will be an xorg.conf but there may also be an xorg.conf.backup or similar07:26
ZenMasta_banshee_ * is a wild card, so xorg.conf* implies any file that begins with xorg.conf07:27
maggerhow can i find any hard drive in my computer from a terminal using a live cd??07:28
Curly_QZenMasta the http://192.168.0.***  Make sure that you want to go into that box.   Most boxes are at the:   .100       level07:28
Dr_Willismagger:  sudo fdisk -l07:28
ZykoticK9magger, "sudo fdisk -l" will list them07:28
banshee_ZykoticK9 Where should I move them, im new so i dont know what a safe location would be07:28
maggergrandé07:28
ZenMasta_Curly_Q I'm logged in07:28
ZykoticK9banshee_, your home directory would be a good spot - would you like the terminal command to do it?07:28
ZenMasta_oh what do you know, it detects a new version of firmware :P07:29
Curly_QZenMasta was it a .100?07:29
ZenMasta_no, 1.107:29
banshee_Would it be, sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf* /home?07:29
Curly_QZenMasta that is the Default Gateway.07:29
ZykoticK9banshee_, YES - but instead of using /home use ~ which will map to the correct /home/yourusername07:29
_^mouse^_sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf* ~07:29
Curly_QOr 0.107:29
banshee_k thanks let me ty07:30
robertmsanybody know how to get laptop hibernation working with karmic - i think it is to do with my wielress drivers?07:30
ZenMasta_there's nothing at .10007:30
banshee_ZykoticK9 should it echo anything back to me?07:30
ZykoticK9banshee_, not if it was successful -- so no07:30
crypt-0ZenMasta_, arp -a07:31
banshee_ZykoticK9 ok I did it, now how do I fix that parsing error again?07:31
ZenMasta_192.168.1.107:31
Curly_QZenMaster anything goes with wireless. .anything works if you know the address.07:31
ZykoticK9banshee_, on command line - no news is good news07:31
ZykoticK9banshee_, "sudo nvidia-xconfig" first07:31
crypt-0ZenMasta_, that should show most devices on your network route will show your routing table07:31
banshee_k then?07:31
ZykoticK9banshee_, then "gksu nvidia-settings" and try to save07:31
Curly_QKnowing the address is not everything. Knowing the password or passphrase or any encrypted password is key.07:32
ZenMasta_crypt-0 yeah but it doesn't07:32
ZenMasta_on win all I see is 1.1 and back in ubuntu nothing shows07:32
ZenMasta_in the router it shows only my desktop being connected07:33
pepper_hazedoes anyone know how to get the video device name for a webcam and mic?07:33
crypt-0ZenMasta_, does ping 127.0.0.1 work?07:33
banshee_ZykoticK9 Ok now how do I restart x server so  I can complete this?07:33
ZenMasta_yeah, how would it not though hehe07:33
ZykoticK9banshee_, no not really - did the save work?07:33
pepper_hazeI want to record a movie with my webcam and mic, with vlc, and don't know what to put in the video device name07:34
Curly_QZenMasta if your system is connected to the router, it does not mean you are connected to the internet.07:34
banshee_ZykoticK9 I think so how do I check?07:34
banshee_ZykoticK9 It didnt error it just asked me where i wanted to save and whatn ot07:34
ZykoticK9banshee_, did you get the "failed to parse" error?07:34
ZenMasta_yeah I realize that but 127 is always local host.07:34
banshee_ZykoticK9 nope07:34
crypt-0ZenMasta_, IP could be down so that could have been a problem07:34
ZykoticK9banshee_, then it should have worked :)  I'd make the changes/settings you want, resave, then reboot to test07:34
sine_the mp3 files are numbered in order like 1.mp3 up to 20.mp3 but cat does not truncate them in order is tehre a way i can do that man does not show it maybe 2.mp3 - 20.mp3 or something07:35
MrNazaccording to my router, my ubuntu boxis opening connections to some unknown IPs that are in dynamic ranges for ISPs around the world07:35
Curly_QZenMaster you need to be connected to an :  ACCESS POINT        .      period.07:35
MrNazaccording to my router, my ubuntu boxis opening connections to some unknown IPs that are in dynamic ranges for ISPs around the world07:35

\bMike\bWhen writing scripts, it is best to use /usr/bin/env since you don't necessarily know where perl/python/whatever will be, right? But it seems to me that env can't pass arguments along (ie /usr/bin/env perl -wT), is that right?07:36
exploit100someone here use the wget?07:36
Curly_QZenMasta you are lazy. Stick around and fix your problem.07:37
dreakhello, i got a question..how to uninstall ubuntu on my hard drive and install the latest one 10.04 beta 2 ?07:37
crypt-0ZenMasta_, output of iwconfig?07:37
ZenMasta_no way, I've been working all night on other problems07:37
ZykoticK9\bMike\b, if no one answers you here - that would be an excellent question for the people in #bash - they're hard core command line junkies07:37
Curly_QDo you think everyone here has not been working all night?07:37
pepper_hazeI have a question, I want to record webcam and mic on vlc, but I don't know what to type in device name07:37
crypt-0ZenMasta_, get some sleep often the problem will become obvious to you :)07:37
ZenMasta_crypt-0 lo eth0 wmaster0 = no wireless extensions. wlan0=ssid mynetgear07:38
maggerwhat type of file system will my freshly format by the ubuntu disc will be ?07:38
ZykoticK9\bMike\b, and I'm saying that with a great amount of admiration, they've helped me out in the past with scripts - blown my mind really07:39
Curly_QCrypt-0 Good suggestion but ZenMaster is lazy.07:39
crypt-0ZenMasta_, strange and no routing table is DHCP enabled on  your router?07:39
ZenMasta_magger I think the live cd lets you choose... or you can preformat with gpedit07:39
bullgardyelp: "gnome-user-share is a session service that exports the contents of the Public folder in your home directory, so that they can easily accessed from other computers on the same local network. On the other computers, the shared folder will appear with a name like »'users's shared files« in the Nautilus Network window. gnome-user-share uses a WebDAV server to share the Public folder, and...07:40
bullgard...advertises the share on the local network using mDNS." Auf Computer 2 habe ich eine Datei in ~/Public kopiert. Auf Computer 3 zeigt Nautilus > Network nur ein »Windows Network« von unbekanntem Typ und keine Benachrichtigung. Avahi hat gestern aber funktioniert, Warum funktioniert diese Dateiübertragung nicht?07:40

maggeri installed using the alternate cd07:40
Cerberoi cant*07:40
willis__hej07:40
ZenMasta_crypt-0 that's probably above my expertise. all Iknow is I can log into the router web interface fine, the arp commands etc only output what I mentioned earlier07:41
pepper_hazeDoes anyone here know what to put in device selection for webcam and mic when recording with vlc?07:41
crypt-0ZenMasta_, IIRC you said it worked fine on win and not on ubuntu?07:42

ZenMasta_crypt-0 yeah the prob is connection drop s frequently in ubuntu but on windows I never have the problem. lemme unplug and try wireless again07:43
Curly_QZenMasta   "Connections dropped"   Is only because there is no authentication or the port is incorrect.07:45
crypt-0connection to the AP has nothing to do with ports07:46
Curly_QYes it does.07:46
Curly_QIf the error message comes up.07:46
crypt-0enlighten me07:46
ZenMasta_crypt-0/Curley_Q there aren't any wireless networks detected (even though they're broadcasting ssid) so I specify hidden just in case but no luck07:46
Curly_QTry the correct PORT.07:47
ZenMasta_how do you specify a port when you can't even discover the network?07:47
crypt-0Curly_Q, stop pulling stuff out of your ass07:47
Curly_QZenMasta if there are no wireless connections detected, then, you are just wasting your time.07:47

Curly_QHow in Hell can you connect to any access point if there are no wireless connections detected?07:48
ZenMasta_plugged in manually07:49
pepper_hazewhat is dev/video007:49
Curly_QCrypt-0 you owe me an apology. Stop that stuff.07:49
ZenMasta_so for example right now, there are none detected but if I say hidden, enter my ssid and password it will loop discover/ask for password but never connect07:50
ZenMasta_100% certain the password is fine07:50
crypt-0Curly_Q, you owe me a few kilobits of network traffic07:50
ZenMasta_gonna reboot to win and see if it works07:52
Curly_QZenMasta, please let me explain something. Even though you are connected to a wireless access point, you may see all kinds of data tranfers and so-on. The point to be made here is you are connected to a wireless router but you are not a legit connection to any connection unless you have permissions.07:52
Curly_QBeing connected does not mean you have access to the internet.07:53
ZenMasta_i know being connected means you don't have access to the internet07:53
ZenMasta_internet access isn' the issue, its connecting to the wireless network07:54

exploit100how many time can resume it?07:56
ZykoticK9dr3mro, Dr_Willis if 10.10 ends up with Gnome3 then I think the answer will be Yes to dropping compiz07:56

dr3mroDr_Willis, ZykoticK9 gnome-shell and compiz both are window managers :) can't run together07:58
keyvanunfortunately, not many people return that good faith anymore. "what a sad" for society at large.07:58
Curly_QKeyfan thanks for that vote of confidence. I agree with you.07:58

Dr_Willisdr3mro:  gnome-shell is not installed by default. and it sstill vbery much a work in progress from what ive seen07:58
dr3mroDr_Willis, ZykoticK9 .. i hope gnome guys put the legacy gnome 2 panels into 3.007:58
Dr_WillisGetting rid of the panels - i figure is a MAJOR thing they want to do.07:59
keyvanis there a way to create an alternate username that will actually login as root?07:59
ZykoticK9dr3mro, i just started playing with gnome-shell the other day, it's pretty cool once you get used to it07:59
Curly_QKeyvan some people here want to hack wireless or just know how to do it. I am not a full fan of giving out ways to do it.07:59

Dr_Williskeyvan:  ive seen it done.. but whats the point07:59
DarthPuffhave any of you used a tiling wm like awesome or ratpoison? i am thinking about trying one07:59
keyvanDr_Willis: its so i can ssh to my server under my currently logged in name on macbook (keyvan)07:59
keyvanrather than having to type root@host07:59
Dr_Willisdr3mro:  last news i saw a few days ago. said gnome-3 was getting pushed back. but only time will tell.07:59
keyvani can just do ssh host.07:59
dr3mroZykoticK9, but there is no desktop effects and why gnome tends to reinvent the wheel07:59

Dr_WillisYou shouldent really be needing to be root for a long period of time.08:02
keyvanDr_Willis: i'm not root on my macbook… see when u do ssh host… it automatically does ssh local_user@host, but i dont want to login as keyvan, i want to login as root08:02

keyvanyes, Dr_Willis, but the macbook automatically suffixes the host with keyvan@ . it works if i do ssh root@remote_host, but i dont want to press the extra 5 keys if i dont have to08:03

maggerZenMasta__:  it replay me gtk warning cannot open displays:08:04
keyvanhence why i asked if i can create a "fake" user called keyvan on the remote host and have it actually login as root08:04
tripelbgod+dess knows, this computer freezes and now I know it is not flash because I have flash off (supposedly I can turn it on in any instance, this fedora icon tells me so, but I wont try). I've decided it's hardware. ------ ON THE OTHER HAND, I let it sit for hours now and it didnt freeze. It's so random!08:04
Curly_QKeyVan do you want to root copy and paste?08:04
Dr_Williskeyvan:   make an alias then.   or try the ssh configs -> http://www.linuxjournal.com/content/use-sshconfig-simplify-your-life08:04
crypt-0ZenMasta__, likely not then although it wouldnt hurt to disable wireless security to rule that out.08:04

keyvanthen that would be good too08:05
quizmehow do you remove an item from the Application->Internet-> drop down menu ?08:05
keyvancuz its not good to be root anyway08:05
Dr_Williskeyvan:  link the users configs to /root/???configs??? is one way08:05
dr3mroThe reason i ditshed windows 7 is that i like gnome more but gnome team is acting crazy to do the KDE4 mistake again just to be said it has a new look ... canonical should mke it possible to install old gnome to the 10.1008:05
Curly_QKeyVan what SSH client are you using?08:05

DarthPuffhow do i check the version of an app with aptitude search?08:08
dr3mroDr_Willis, you know gnome 2.30 can be improved with out recreating the desktop for example we can add the tag for files and color taging like gmail to files on desktop and nautilus... also nautiljus needs alot of work to be metadata ready to edit mp3 tags and to preview video files ... better grid view in nautilus .. they just ignore all of that and create useless not essential shell08:09
Tm_TDarthPuff: typically gui application has in menu: help -> about08:09
Curly_QKeyVan check this out:    sudo -i08:09
DarthPuffTm_T: i'm 100% command line08:09

keyvanCurly_Q: how so? what are you thinking08:12
Curly_QIf it is irrelevant, then you should not be asking questions here on this channel.08:12
keyvanCurly_Q: I dont think you understand my "issue"08:12

sgh-i637I have a ploblema hello, can anyone help08:13
_^mouse^_magger,  you mounted it to a directory, right? then just type cd <the mount directory> to access it08:13
geekphreakmagger:  when you type ls /mnt , see those files?08:13
Curly_QI know I had the same stupid problem. Don't you see?08:13
keyvansgh-i637: dont ask to ask. just ask.08:13
keyvanCurly_Q: no, you didnt understand my situation. dont worry about it, its not a big deal08:13
maggerso i should have mounted it to like /mnt/Afile iinstead of /mnt ?08:14
geekphreaksgh-i637: try asking08:14
Dr_Willismagger:  you could use /mnt/ but /mnt/SOMPLACE is proberly cleaner08:14

uxubuntuHello, I'm having a problem with firefox. I'm under latest stable xubuntu. I just updated firefox. When I open it, it opens a window resized to the minimum, when I resize to see its content it's a blank page. There is nothing on the window but the title "Firefox". No menus whatsoever. I tired in synaptic to completely uninstall firefox and reinstall. Still same problem. Thank for your help.09:56

Dr_WillisMrGoose:  i suggest waiting.. unless you have some system to test out13:05
SlartMrGoose: it's better than it used to be... it worked without any problems with 8.10->9.04->9.10 for me. But it's advisable to make backups before you start13:05

rhinoplastyMrGoose, AFAIK 9.10 works better than 9.04 for everyone i know13:05
maginotpetar_, you could try something like "mkdir ~/bk_config_files && mv ~/.* bk_config_files" after that try open gnome-terminal again, to come back the old configurations: "cp -rf bk_config_files/* ~/"13:06

todaywhat command rhinoplasty?13:18
chris78945I am having some difficulties with file sharing.  I have followed two forum threads that were recommended to me here. It kind of worked. I am able to see the folders but not the content13:18
rhinoplastytoday, how exactly are you 'mounting' the usb13:18
maginottoday, the mount command you need to mount the usb driver, like sudo mount <device> <mount/point>13:18
joaopintoFreeloop, there is no windows terminal server for linux13:18
todaywhy usb device do not auto mount?13:19
TheRealExilehmmm13:19
Freeloopjoaopinto,ok, good to know. Then I'll use NX Machine13:19
joaopintoin my experience NX is the best in performance13:19
TheRealExilethe only things I can see are stable13:19
TheRealExileI'll paste a copy13:19
joaopintoif you are on a LAN you can use X13:19
joaopintowhich is still much slower than VNC :P13:19
TheRealExilehttp://ubuntu.pastebin.com/8GuaKBhg13:20
maginottoday, well, I have no problem with that here, for any reason your user was created by hand or it is the one created in the installation process ?13:20
TheRealExileif someone could have a look I'd be much appreceated!13:20
TheRealExilecos everything looks ok to me13:20
Freeloopjoaopinto, SSH works in most cases, but still looking for a great remote GUI server13:20
g33kergRrLi tried to watch youtube on the liveubutucd, but it would let me install the adobe thing, is there a special place for the adobe-linux installer?13:20
maginotTheRealExile, and what is your problem?13:21
todayi want the usb device will automount for every time to plug  maginot13:21
bazhangg33kergRrL, you don't plan on installing?13:21
g33kergRrLi really do13:21
TheRealExilehow I can install the latest stable release of firefox? I'm using the Namoroka version and its buggy as hell13:21
TheRealExileand wont let me install the latest 3.6.3 stable version13:21
g33kergRrLi just wanna know where and how to find stuff13:21
bazhangg33kergRrL, then install flash once you have installed Ubuntu13:21
maginotg33kergRrL, it depends, adobe only gives FlashPlugin and Adobe Reader support for linux (I think Flex have support too), application such as photoshop doesn't exist for linux, you have to use a similar like Gimp, InkScape, Blender, etc13:22
TheRealExileI'm stuck with a buggy 3.6.4pre Namoroka version13:22
g33kergRrLbazhang: yah, it somehow didn't work weirdly enough13:22
arvind_khadriHi, how do i add an user to a group, is it using usermod  ??13:22
bazhangg33kergRrL, you haven't installed yet have you13:22
joaopintoTheRealExile, if you believe is buggy file bug reports about it, there aren't general complains about the current version on the repository13:22
g33kergRrLi ran a livecd13:22
bazhangg33kergRrL, which is not an install13:22
g33kergRrLit played the avis alright but no utub13:23
hick0rdTheRealExile, remove the last two lines within your sources list. 60-6113:23
TheRealExileit keeps crashing when ever I visit a page with AJAX13:23
g33kergRrLw/e13:23
todayi already do this command : sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /media/sdb113:23
todaythen i can access my usb device,13:23
maginotg33kergRrL, on ubuntu you can use "synaptic" to one (two, maybe 3) click install... just open synaptic and search what you want, select and click apply13:23
joaopintoTheRealExile, you are using some 3rd party ppa, not the official version13:23
g33kergRrLmaginot where do i find synaptic?13:23
joaopintoI have used firefox for a long time without any of such crashes13:23
maginotg33kergRrL, it is already built in on ubuntu (or any debian based distro)13:24
g33kergRrLok13:24
TheRealExileok removed the lines13:24
todayhey maginot, i want to ask one question now, i have a problem with my Firefox 3.6 , when i open some tabs, firefox dont responding, only way force quit13:24
bekkiosorry what's the channel for boot issues?13:24
joaopintoTheRealExile, now you should reinstall firefox, but the official package13:24
TheRealExileusing 'sudo apt-get install firefox-3.6' ?13:24
TheRealExileor do I have to remove first13:24
toplandany one know how to find wifi network as i have install wifi driver also but it is not showing over here13:25
maginotg33kergRrL, synaptic is a front end to apt, on command line you can do things like: "aptitude search inkscape" and them after finding the right package "apt-get install inkscape", do you get it ?13:25
hick0rdTheRealExile, I'd also recommend you to remove all your jaunty repositories since your using the new karmic ones. unless you're using some extra packages bundled within jaunty PPA archives.13:25
g33kergRrLmaginot: is there preference for installing on an IDE drive or a SATA drive?13:25
todaynot right TheRealExile beacause im try again that ways but dont fix that error?13:25
TheRealExileyeah I'm sure I need some on the jaunty packages13:25
g33kergRrLmaginot: is there preference for installing on a 15 GB partition or is it a case of the bigger the better?13:26
maginotg33kergRrL, sata is always better them ide, IDE is a old technology and Sata is a newer one (specially SATA II)13:26
hick0rdTheRealExile, so, try to apt-get update && apt-get remove firefox13:26
g33kergRrLmaginot: clear!13:26
TheRealExileok13:26
TheRealExilewhat about my settings13:26
TheRealExileI need to back up them?13:26
hick0rdTheRealExile, your firefox setting?13:26
maginotg33kergRrL, the size of the partition really depends on your needs, you just need at least the enough size to the system install, after that all is a matter of needs13:26
toplandcan anyone help me for wifi13:27
hick0rdTheRealExile, yes, backup them if necessary.13:27

TheRealExilehow is this possible?13:33
g33kergRrLi think i will have questions like "can i get this app in ubuntu/linux flavor" a LOT, so is that then the place to go? or is there a special "Convert your windows app into a Linux app" section??13:33
joaopintoTheRealExile, because that's the version provided on the official package ?13:33
djbeenie_firefox-3.6 is already the newest versio13:33

g33kergRrLjoaopinto: aha!13:34
petar_or dunno lol13:34
maginotg33kergRrL, use synaptic to search for the application you want, if you don't find it take a look at google or you could just ask here for an opnion13:34
joaopintoTheRealExile, repeating myself, because that is the version provided on the repositories you have setup ?13:34
bazhangg33kergRrL, check the link I just sent you first13:35
kevdogIts because thats what is pulled from your repository list13:35
maginotpetar_, I don't think that have any relation with gnome-terminal, since if you don't have bashrc it will use the default from /etc13:35

xomphello, if I wanted to change the group and owner of a directory how woould I do so? I'm using this "chown steam ./tf2/ -R" but it does not change the group owner to "steam" like it does the owner.13:37

blankthemuffinwondering how to change the hostname, /etc/hostname does not exit?13:43
maginotpetar_, actually I would like to follow the steps to see if everything is like I expect...13:43
bekkiosorry but i think it's not a problem with cd, i also brought my notebook to an assistance center, it has to be an hardware problem13:43
blankthemuffin9.1013:43
bekkiobut i can run the console13:43
joaopintochris78945, don't do it unless you really know you want to do it13:43
chris78945when setting up samba then i want to change all of that to my username and group??13:43
bazhangbekkio, then ask in ##hardware13:43
bekkioook thank you!13:44
babilenchris78945: That command contains a syntax error. It should read nobody:nogroup13:44
chris78945joaopinto, why is that?13:44
joaopintoblankthemuffin, sudo hostname hostname [if i am not mistaken]13:44
zombie-robot>bazhang< what would be an appropriate channel for my query?13:44
joaopintoyou also need to make sure it's listed on /etc/hosts first13:44
blankthemuffinchanges it until reboot joaopinto13:44
guntbert!hostname | blankthemuffin13:44
ubottublankthemuffin: Use hostname <somehostname> to set the hostname, or to do it permanently: edit /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts . WARNING! Make sure that your current hostname and /etc/hosts match, otherwise sudo may not work properly.13:44
maginotpetar_,  "mv ~/.* ~/bk_config_files" after that can you pastebin the output of "ls -a ~/ | grep -e '^.' "13:44
bazhangzombie-robot, no idea, probably not on freenode network to be honest13:44
joaopintochris78945, because you shouldn't change ownership recursively unless you understand why you are doing it13:44
chris78945All: i was trying to setup samba, was led to this link yesterday: https://help.ubuntu.com/9.10/serverguide/C/samba-fileserver.html#samba-fileserver-installation13:45
HawkMan_Any idea what could cause th apply settings windows to freeze forever aftr I answer yes to activate advanced visual effects under appearance?13:45
blankthemuffinlike I said, there is no /etc/hostname do I just need to create it or has something changed?13:45
reinemansDr_Willis: I installed Weechat, but I can't find it anywere... , were is it?13:45
joaopintoblankthemuffin, you can use the "hostname" command which will create it13:45
joaopintobut don't forget /etc/hosts first13:46
arvind_khadrireinemans, weechat in terminal :)13:46
reinemansarvind_khadri: how do I open weechat then, I'm new in linux :P13:46
chris78945joaopinto, and if i ran it already where am i at? i was following a link that i was pointed to from this chanel to help setup samba13:46
arvind_khadrireinemans, type weechat in a terminal13:46

chris78945Dr_Willis, do i want to change nobody nogroup to something else i f i am setting up samba?13:47
steffanchris78945: if the documentation you're following doesn't state to change it, then don't13:47
blankthemuffinhostname does not create the file, it just sets it for the current session. making my own /etc/hostname works fine though.13:48
joaopintoBlackcamaro8, hostname set's it system wide, there is no "session" hostname13:48
reinemanshmmm... still can't open weechat...? I typed in /weechat  do I need to add something?13:49
blankthemuffinit's not permanent, you reboot you loose it joaopinto.13:49
joaopintoblankthemuffin, ops, sorry, you are right13:49

s3r3n1t7_Guest3630, if you want to use torrentflux then use the package provided by the official repo's. It works just fine. Is there a special reason why you want this package?14:05

chris78945ActionParsnip, do i replace$USER with my computers username?14:08
ActionParsnipChris78945: you can add more users and configure samba to allow certain users in certain folders only. Very powerful14:08

maginotchris78945, well, I think now that is working that isn't need, or do you still have a problem14:14
ActionParsnipChris78945: well the credentials authenticate you so if you want access to it you will need to provide the credentials14:15
kuttanswhats the irc channel for lucid14:16
ActionParsnipChris78945: so if you use windows and want to map a network drive for access you will need to make the os remember the credentials etc14:16

I know that since my memory should be 512MB, but Ubuntu says its 496MB, which is because of my Videocard or some other hardware might be occupying the remaining 16MB. if a software says I require 512MB of memory minimum, the program doesn't work? because I have 496? has anyone else had this issue? thank you17:06

dactylok, so somebody changed the system language on my computer to arabic to be funny, and now I can't get figure out how to make it go back to english. luckily, I have a guest account that is still in english, but I can't find the relevant menu to change languages.17:28
Ree_the thing is that after a clean 9.10 install I get black screen upon first boot17:29
norbi905Hello, I'm trying to use Brasero to burn an iso from a terminal.  I don't know what the application keyword is to launch the software from the terminal.  I know there was a way of searching keywords "apropo"? Or something similar, can someone remind me what it is please. Thank you.17:29

ShvonderWaht for is LDAP used? I think NIS needs looking up computers, LDAP needs looking up shares and NFS needs for connecting computers. Am I right?17:30
dactyli'll give that a shot17:30
Ree_the problem happens on first boot AFTER a clean install17:30
b_UnderSampled, no i tried to uninstall starcraft n reinstall it .. now its not doing either17:31

UnderSampledb_: this channel is not for help with wine. You can always try #winehq17:32

bullgard5My computer 3 does not repond to normal keypresses (eg Ctrl+Alt+F1). Using Touchpad I can move the mouse pointer. On computer 2 in my LAN I did '~$ ssh <username@3>' and '~$ sudo kill 1056'. But this did not kill X on 3. Is my only option to restart 3?17:34
h00kSuperMiguel: just ask your question, perhaps someone else can help17:34
randomusr_Ree_, what's version of ubuntu did you install?17:34
The_Serpenthow do i uninstall ubuntu and keep windows?17:34
Ree_randomusr_: 9.1017:34

ZykoticK9bullgard5, assuming karmic17:35
randomusr_Ree_, please "lspci -l" and pastebin that output17:35
Ree_randomusr_: will do a bit later, as i'm currently reinstalling 9.10 yet again17:35
SuperMiguelh00k, that was my question if any Electric engineer student is using ubuntu...17:35
randomusr_Ree_, there's not much to do then if you're re-installing17:35
king11how do you convert a bin file into a tar.gz file17:35
Ree_randomusr_: one important thing probably: during the several clean installs that I did, there was a single case when ubuntu booted just fine the first time17:36
randomusr_Ree_, why ask for help when you trashed the image and started fresh? if it continues, let us know17:36
Ree_randomusr_: however that happened only once out of maybe 5 times17:36
ZykoticK9king11, if it's a single file you don't need tar - just gz the file17:36
rm200910king11: tar cfz <destination>.tar.gz <bin file>17:36
king11thanks, will try right now17:37
bullgard5ZykoticK9: It is Karmic. But it responds: "restart: Unknown instance: ."17:37
randomusr_Ree_, i fear that if you keep hitting your head on the wall, you will eventually pass out17:37
guntbertSuperMiguel: how is this an ubuntu support question?17:37
Ree_randomusr_: didn't get you? i'm not hitting anything, just testing out17:37
SuperMiguelguntbert, ... forget it..17:38
randomusr_Ree_, but you have trouble booting no?17:38
Ree_randomusr_: yes, but only the first time after the install17:38
Ree_randomusr_: subsequent rboots seem to be fine17:38
randomusr_Ree_, and it works fine after that?17:38
crazybytehello! what happened with the sun-java6-doc package on lucid lynx? I'm trying to upgrade it and the only option available is to remove it. I did some googling but I couldn't find any explanation why is the package missing. Could somebody enlighten me about this? Thank you!17:38
randomusr_Ree_, then what's the problem? it seems to be self correcting17:39
Ree_randomusr_: yes, but that doesn't mean it won't come up later. besides, what's the deal with the first time then? it shouldn't happen17:39
norbi905I'm trying to mount a USB stick on ubuntu 9.10.  I create a directory in /media/usb .  I see device /dev/sdb which I think is my usb.  What arguments do I pass to mount /dev/sdb /media/usb?  For some reason it's not getting auto-mounted :(17:39
amosi have a problem with blackra1n under virtualbox .. it detects the iphone but after the iphone reboots it's not recognized any more .. any ideas?17:39

randomusr_!mount17:41
ubottumount is used to attach devices to directories. See also https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mount17:41

king11rm200910: it is not working17:43
Soloppganghei17:43
randomusr_Ree_, in other words, more detail is needed before someone can assist you17:43
randomusr_is there some gui for central management of system wide policies?17:44

norbi905LITESTER_, dmesg shows FAT:invalid media value(0x00) VFS: Can't find a valid FAT filesystem on dev sdb.17:44
norbi905LITESTER_, should I format?17:44
Ree_randomusr_: yeah, i understand, however, i thought someone would have a few ready-made suggestions to try as the "black screen" seems to be a common problem17:44
iFireGNU\colossus there's no problem with add "me" to the group www-data right?17:44
bullgard5My computer 3 does not repond to normal keypresses (eg Ctrl+Alt+F1). Using Touchpad I can move the mouse pointer. On computer 2 in my LAN I did '~$ ssh <username@3>' and '~$ sudo kill 1056'. But this did not kill X on 3. Is my only option to restart 3?17:44
iFiremy server is nginx and it uses that user17:45
Soloppganghei17:45
=== mentr_bnc is now known as mentr
randomusr_Ree_, as I have said, we need more detail. you could also google "black screen" ubuntu. this is usually an x.org problem17:45
ikoniabullgard5: why do you keepsaying 3 randomly in your typing ?17:45
ShvonderIs any way to turn a octave which was built from sources in a virtual application? I want using the octave on my netbook17:45
ikoniabullgard5: if killing X does not work, it normally suggests the tty it's running has hung, so a restart would be the best thing17:45
pinoyoragonHi. What might be the reason why shadow info from my server doesnt show when i invoke "getent shadow", but "getent passwd" shows the /etc/passwd of my server.17:46

andrew_lhey guys, can anyone help? i just installed 9.10 yestrrday, and after updating everything, i cant mount the dvd drive. Any ideas?17:47
Ree_randomusr_: why would anything get misconfigured when i haven't touched anything?17:47
andrew_ltheres a dvd in it, and the light in the side goes on and off, but i can't mount it17:47
theadminandrew_l: even manually?17:47
randomusr_Ree_, something is not getting set correctly when you install. I can't be any more clear than that17:48
andrew_lcorrest theadmin17:48
theadminhm, weird...17:48
king11theadmin: yeah but that was what was offered on the genome site with the theme17:48
king11does anyone know of a site where I can get compiz only themes17:48
GNU\colossusiFire: there isn't, but it won't solve the problem of allowing your webserver to access data in/beneath your ~17:48
Ree_randomusr_: ok, just another bug17:48
randomusr_Ree_, please inform the channel when you're facing the problem again and want to troubleshoot that specific problem17:48
iFireGNU\colossus well I sued into www-data and it let me read the data17:48
randomusr_Ree_, it's not a bug, seems to be user error17:49
andrew_lit shows up under 'computer' but when i click on it it says cd/..../ or whatever doesnt exist17:49
Ree_randomusr_: will provide more detail when the install completes17:49
Ree_randomusr_: user error? are you kiddibng?17:49
andrew_lunable to mount cd0, mount: special device /dev/scd0 does not exist17:49
ShvonderDoes someone know if any way be to make one application on ubuntu-desktop be virtual application? Or this is impossible?17:49

ikoniaDonSlice: clean install17:53
DonSlicefuu17:53
ZykoticK9randomusr_, no idea (but webmin isn't a good idea)17:53
ikoniaDonSlice: mixing repos is bad, and upgrading by changing the repo's in the sources.list is bad17:53
theadminShvonder: I think this isn't possible with most packages, unfortunately17:53
ojiiI tried to install postgresql on ubuntu 8.04 (using apt-get install postgresql-common) but I can't start the server, running `sudo /etc/init.d/postgresql-8.3 start` does not do anything, anyone know what went wrong here?17:53
king11ZykoticK9: I know emerald is old but that is what the genome look site is offering as compiz themes, I don't get it17:53
DonSliceikonia: Yeah, I forgot I had lucid in there when upgrading.17:54
randomusr_ZykoticK9, webmin used to the greatest.... oh well17:54
ikoniaojii: how do you know it's not running17:54
ikoniaDonSlice: mixing repo's is bad in the first place17:54
DonSliceikonia: I only did it for weechat-curses./17:54
* DonSlice shrugs.17:54
randomusr_ZykoticK9, have you had experience with centeris likewise?17:54
ojiiikonia: ps aux | grep ^postgres is empty, and i can't connect to the server either17:54
ikoniaDonSlice: still bad17:54
DonSliceyet soo goooood17:54
ikoniaojii: walk through the init script manually, launch it manually to see if it can run or if there is a problem17:55
ChogyDanDonSlice: next time, you should just download the deb from the lucid repos, instead of adding the whole repo to apt17:55
edvinasHi, I have finished installing 9.10 but I cannot seem to be able to adjust my screen resolution higher than 1280x800. The graphics is Intel 950GM. Can anyone give some tips on how to adjust it?17:55
grobda24king11, I see compiz themes but Emerald is often used with Compiz17:55
DonSliceChogyDan: I did, but it needed a lot of prereqs17:55
DonSliceWell, thanks for the help guys. Time to re-install. :/17:56
Shvondertheadmin: I've seen on a web site that octave works in such way17:56
king11grobda24: I am looking through them right now but I think the site should have the ones that are tar.gz file seperate from the emerald ones17:57
randomusr_<----- doesn't understand why some folks choose to do things the hard way17:57
ojiiikonia: the point is that when I run the init.d script it doesn't give me any output (no errors either)17:58
ikoniaojii: I understand that, so I said manually walk through the init script, or manually start postgres to see if it gives you an error17:58
ojiiikonia: what do you mean by manually walk through it?17:58
ojiiand how would I manually start it?17:59
ikoniaojii: step by step use the start up process of the init script17:59
ikoniaojii: there is documentation on the postgress web page about manually launching postgres also17:59

oCean_vbox-ose/karmic question: I need to access my usb drive in virtualbox-ose XP client on 9.10 host. I started here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox/USB, like many other howto's, it says to add my user to group 'vboxusers', however, my Karmic has no such group. Besides that, even if I create such a group, the next step (mounting usbfs) fails with "/proc/bus/usb does not exist" and/or "unknown filesystem type usbfs"18:17

bribroderArch_NME, i downloaded the package and i'm looking at the readme19:27
Scarra3I really like Ubuntu 10.04 LTS Beta 2 its really stable19:27
lwsWhy does every version have a .04 on it as of late?19:27
macoScarra3: yay :) but lucid chatter is in #ubuntu+119:27

shashikehello  all!19:28
LoshaScarra3: it's also really off-topic here, go to #ubuntu+119:28
azi__Dmole: also i've looked in the xorg.conf of the busted system and there is no evident setting for the proprietary driver19:28
macolws: .04 = released in april. .10 = released in october19:28
shashikei have a problem, my internal mic doesnt seem to work, i am using a sony vaio laptop, can someone please help me with this?19:28

macoZykoticK9: well, the year, minus 200019:29
Arch_NMEthose instructions make any sense to you ? http://paste.ubuntu.com/412227/19:30

shashikemy internal mic doesnt work, can someone pleasee help me? its very very urgent19:30

bribroderArch_NME, have you run any commands yet?19:30
lwsThis is he-larious...19:30
Arch_NMEwell, I ran the first two19:31
deadlyblueshashike i have same problem with my mic. what i have read shows Alsamixe should be my fix you might read up on it.19:31
Arch_NMEthe second seemed to generate some new files19:31
lwspre-install scripts make a lot of asumptions about the state of the system "should be in"....19:31
deadlybluealsamixer19:31
gh0ghnusazi__, i think working on grub is better than working on X config files first change grub config to access recovery mode19:31
macolws: im surprised you could use apt while not having a networking script...19:31
Arch_NMEwhen I go to run make install though it says "make: *** No rule to make target `install'.  Stop."19:31
macolws: you're using karmic?19:31
bribroder!tab Arch_NME19:32
shashikei have read a lot, about alsamixer and stuff, but nothing seems to help19:32
lwsmaco: Yes...  I *just* deleted my modified copy of the script thinking that it would be no problem to reinstall it.19:32
Arch_NME!tab??19:32
ubottuError: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :)19:32

macolws: ah. alright. lemme grab the package and find the file to pastebin for you19:32
azi`gh0ghnus: just trying to figurer out how to add this option in the config.. so that grups prompts me before boot19:32
azi`gh0ghnus: any clue?19:32
Arch_NMEbash: !tab: event not found19:32
LoshaArch_NME: did you run autogen.sh and the ./configure before make?19:33
lwsmaco: Thanks.   I've had this problem a couple other things too with pre-install crap.    Updating to karmic crashed my system half-way.   It was a nightmare to try to get it to finish while booted off an a recovery cd....19:33
ZykoticK9Arch_NME, isn't nvclock in the default repository?  why are you compiling it?19:34
* lws swears at stupid pre-install scripts.19:34
mertle!tab | Arch_NME is what he meant I think19:34
ubottuArch_NME is what he meant I think: You can use your <tab> key for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line.19:34
Arch_NMELosha: I think so let me try again19:34
gh0ghnusazi__, grub automatically shows this option, i think you must change wait time for grub19:34

V3RR3ZI just installed AnarchyOnline but it didnt take it out of the program list... What can i do?19:40
LoshaArch_NME: yes, but the script relies on other programs which aren't installed yet, so it fails...19:40
bribroderArch_NME, you might need some extra tools19:41
Arch_NMEthe instructions jsut say to run that first though http://paste.ubuntu.com/412233/19:41
Arch_NMEtools such as?19:41

Arch_NMELosha this isn't from the package manager though19:42
ZykoticK9shashike, the other day i tried to get Skype working and realized that my mic wasn't working either.  The first thing is to verify that the mic is not muted (and the proper mic input is selected, if you have more then one) and has it's volume turned up.  In my case with and Intel HDA I did have to manually edit some lines in alsa-base to get it to work, but that's a hardware specific issue.  Good luck man (I'm no "sound" expert, so really can't s19:42
ZykoticK9uggest much more i'm afraid)19:42
LoshaArch_NME: they are support tools that developers use when building stuff. Believe it or not, they actually make development easier19:43
bribroderArch_NME, try "sudo apt-get install autoconf makedev"19:43
Arch_NMEwhere can I obtain these tools, is there a common standard set?19:43
Loshabribroder: oh, right. But lines 11, 12 and 13 aren't. Those are missing executables...19:43
tw|master^brbMy computer crashed after installing the driver update for my videocard :( Any idea why that could be?19:44
bribroderazi`, did you have any luck?19:44
bribroderLosha, right-o. i'm not sure what autoheader and aclocal are...19:44

DPicis there a way to run the alternate installer from the desktop liveCD?19:45
ZykoticK9DPic, if you want a text install - you'll need to use the alternate CD i'm affraid19:45

stopsigni have vista installed first,ubuntu9.10 on second drive, grub2 works perfect, now i want to install free bsd, any help pages on doing this to have all 3 show in grub2 ?19:45
Arch_NMEjust brought me back to another command prompt19:45
azi`bribroder: i was able to boot into my machine by removing the "load fglrx" section of my xorg.conf, but now i can't use applications using openGL19:45
Arch_NMEwhich I think is good19:45
ZykoticK9DPic, because the LiveCD doesn't have the text installer19:45
DPicZykoticK9: is it an installable package?19:46
FlannelDPic: The installers are completely different19:46
Loshabribroder: some kind of macro packages for supporting the autoconf stuff. Sometimes I think this stuff is more trouble than it's worth...19:46
azi`bribroder: any clue how to fix that? for the proprietary drivers, it just seem they'll not work so i'll switch to the open ones for the moment19:46
DPichm, i see19:46
LoshaArch_NME: yes, try ./configure next...19:46

Arch_NMEokay that configure script seemed to go with error19:48
LoshaArch_NME: please pastebin the output...19:48
bribroderazi`,  did you apt-get remove --purge xorg-driver-fglrx ?19:48
enthdegreeCool_Nick: I use mount19:49
ZykoticK9azi`, if you move your xorg.conf to xorg.conf.backup (or similar) X will fallback to using the opensource driver19:49
Cool_NickI would like to use a gui wher eit will automatically put it into fstab etc...19:49
bribroderazi`, you may find it helpful to reconfig the server19:49
Arch_NMEthis was the output, still same issue with make install http://paste.ubuntu.com/412235/19:49
azi`bribroder: reconfig manually or is there any command for that? xorgcfg doesn't seem to be shipped with ubuntu19:50
enthdegreeWhy not just put it into fstab yourself?19:50
bribroderazi`, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg19:50
azi`bribroder: thanks19:50
azi`bribroder: the xorg configs remains the same as after my last edit, after I issue this command19:51
Cool_Nicktrying to keep it simple right now19:51

LoshaArch_NME: well it's a gui program, so it's looking for X11 development libraries. Either install them, or try configuring without them (presumably you'll get a cli version of the program). Reread the lines 11 thru 26 of the installation instructions...19:52
bribroderazi`, just making sure there's no bits left over... did you say you --purged the driver?19:52
azi`bribroder: yes19:52
azi`bribroder: copy pasted what u said actually19:52
V3RR3ZWhy would a program still show inthe Menu thats not supposed to be installed.19:52

Arch_NMEyeah I see the error19:53
Arch_NMExll development libraries eh...19:53
ZykoticK9Arch_NME, you do have Xorg installed correct?  just going from the error message.19:53
enthdegreeLosha: All five.19:54
Arch_NMEI don't even know what is xorg?19:54
mertleV3RR3Z: you didn't choose to completely remove it - config files and all19:54
Arch_NMEif it came with standard ubuntu I have it if not I don't19:54
ZykoticK9Arch_NME, sorry - I'm sure you do then (xorg is the GUI)19:54
Arch_NMEI have the gnome gui19:54
LoshaArch_NME: the development libraries don't come standard, since it's assumed that most people aren't going to be compiling from scratch. Remind me, why are you doing this?19:55
e-i-k-ehi19:55
ZykoticK9Arch_NME, Losha have you tried the nvclock in the default repository?  sudo apt-get install nvclock?19:55

alketcraniumslows: No the mac is as same as in windows20:27
craniumslowsalket: I mean for your router20:28
Androidfan647does anyone here have knowledge of the bluetooth dial up network20:28
craniumslowsalket: do you have mac filtering / what encryption are you using?20:28
ZykoticK9craniumslows, though alket is now gone -- disabling encryption and trying to connect would be a GREAT next step20:29
craniumslowsAndroidfan647: I don't have any experience but does this Setup Doc help? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup20:30

Arch_NMEis there a way to open a file in gedit from the gui with admin privleges?20:30
craniumslowsSetup a launcher maybe?20:30
ZykoticK9Arch_NME, "gksu gedit /path/to/file"20:31
Arch_NMEwell I mean from the gui20:31
Arch_NMEwithout having to go into terminal and type stuff20:31

drbongoHi I have a strange problem with the terminal20:31
ZykoticK9Arch_NME, don't fear the terminal :)20:31
Arch_NMEI don't I'm just lazy20:31
drbongoI can't type the character 'e' unless I press insert first20:32
histoArch_NME: gksu gedit filename20:32
histoArch_NME: youc an just use nano in a terminal also20:32
drbongoIf I press e it just beeps, no character is written20:32
ZykoticK9histo, that was my suggestion - which was shot down20:32
=== man0riaX__ is now known as man0riaX
histoahh20:32
drbongoThis also happens in xterm20:32
Arch_NMEI was hoping just to click stuff20:32
Arch_NMElike "run as.."20:33
histoArch_NME: there is no way that I know of to just click to get root priveleges.20:33
drbongoCan anyone help?20:33
histoArch_NME: Let me do some searching20:33
ZykoticK9Arch_NME, if you really wanted you could create a new launch with "gksu gedit" as the command (probably not the best idea however)20:33
histoArch_NME: I know what you mean now like the windows run as... diaglog20:33

ZykoticK9Arch_NME, for someone who wants to be lazy you need to start getting lazy in the console/irc channel -- typing ZykoticK9 is a drag, Zy(TAB) is the lazy/smart way to do it ;)20:35
Arch_NMEZykoticK9: yes yes20:35
histoArch_NME: looks liek the nautilus-gksu package is what you want20:35
ilumii have a problem with a webcam, its is installed, has a driver, and it works, but only with flash(in the webbrowser), however things like kopete and other webcam software doesnt see it20:35
ZykoticK9histo, +1 forgot about that20:35
Arch_NMEit's just instinct my fingers move faster than my brain20:36
ZykoticK9Arch_NME, look into histo's suggestion - probably exactly what you want20:36
histoArch_NME: install nautilus-gksu then restart X20:36
histoArch_NME: it adds admin priveleges to the context menu20:37
ZykoticK9nautilus-open-terminal is also VERY handy, lets you right click Open in Terminal20:37
Arch_NMEhisto:  idk, maybe it's a bad idea, I'd hate to form a habit of a way to do thigns that will only work on this comp, I guess I should just use the terminal20:38
histoArch_NME: no its your computer to customize as you see fit20:38
histoArch_NME: it just adds a link int he right click menu to open as administrator20:38
Arch_NMEyeah that's exactly what I wanted20:39
histoArch_NME: not really a bad Idea its what ever works for you.20:39

drbongoThis happened after I install some text tools, but no idea which one or why20:43
histodrbongo: is there a super key stuck?20:43
histodrbongo: what sort of text tools20:43
drbongoNegative, all keys work correctly except 'e' in a terminal - very strange it beeps20:43
drbongoLots of text tools, too many to list, I have used them all before but not encounterd this issue20:44
ZykoticK9drbongo, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=499601 has the same issue - but just used a new account to fix, so no real sollution20:44
Loshadrbongo: odd. Do you know when you installed the text tools? There should be a complete chronological log of package installs in /var/log/dpkg.log...20:44
histoZykoticK9: maybe somthing in his .bashrc?20:44
ZykoticK9histo, perhaps?  I really don't know.20:45
histodrbongo: I found a bug hold up20:45
histodrbongo: someone fixed it by editng the shortcuts in gnome terminal and the paste key was bound to super+e for some reason they changed it to ctrl+shift+e and it fixed it.20:46

LoshaZykoticK9: I see that. Is ubottu malfunctioning currently?20:47
ZykoticK9Losha, says it doesn't know anything about nat20:48
ZykoticK9Losha, other commands are working?20:48
histoLosha: no there is no entry for nat just for firewall20:48
drbongoNegative, gnome-terminal keybindings for cut and paste set to default ctrl+shift+c/v20:48
histoLosha: was it you that wanted info on a nat gateway?20:49
Loshahisto: actually, it was akashv. I was just curious to see what the nat entry said...20:49
histoakashv: you is that the info you wanted that ubottu sent or are you trying to share your internet connection?20:50

Loshahisto: ZykoticK9: might be nice if ops added a ubottu alias nat for firewall...20:52
ZykoticK9drbongo, do you have another user that you can test with?20:52
ZykoticK9Losha, agreed20:52
craniumslowsJust an off the wall idea what about a touch type tutor20:53
histoLosha: you can add one or suggest it20:53
drbongoI can create another account - just tried dpkg-reconfigure console-setup - no joy keyboard layout was UK20:54
ZykoticK9drbongo, does upper case E work?20:55
drbongoThe 'e' works when asked for a password! But not when typing normally20:55
histoLosha: atleast you used to be able to with ubotu20:55
histodrbongo: did you chenge the keyboard shortcut?20:55
drbongoYes the uppercase E does work20:55
histodrbongo: its eactly the same behavior as that bug20:55
drbongoDid I change the keyboard shortcut for what?20:55
craniumslowsThis is a most interesting issue.20:55
histodrbongo: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-terminal/+bug/37006920:56

varun_hello people21:01
jared_1Had a quick question for you guys.  I'd like to build a simple home server since it's something I've been without for way too long (I've been so lucky to never lose data ... yet).  Anyways I'll probably be doing basic stuff... File server, FTP, simple webserver....But I would like a graphical environment (kde, gnome, etc) for VNC.  What hardware would you recommend to run a raid 1 or raid 0+1 (4 drives).  Trying to keep it affordable but 21:01
Cool_NickWhat do i have to do to xp professional to allow ubuntu to conenct to a share?  (I reinstalled first time in 4 yrs and cant remember)21:01
jared_1just looking for mobo / raid controller / proc21:02
varun_I did not try earlier and I found after a couple of months that my cd drive is not working in ubuntu21:02
drbongo_New user account didn't make the 'e' work in a terminal either21:02
varun_anyone who could give me a few pointers21:02
histojared_1: any processor will do as far as raid you may want to ask in #ubuntu-server they may have more knowledge abou what is working withthe least issues.21:02
jared_1ah sorry for the mistake21:02
histoCool_Nick: you are trying to share from windows to ubuntu?21:02
jared_1thanks histo21:02
craniumslowsvarun_, just ask aloud i'm sure someone will help ya21:02
varun_I have done21:03
Cool_Nickhisto, correct (guest account enables..share created.  guest has permission to share and ntfs security)21:03

craniumslowsvarun_, does it not play audio or doesnt show in computer?21:03
varun_I can read from it21:03
varun_dvds and cds21:03
Cool_Nickhisto, I see the computer...but it keeps asking for username and password and domain21:03
varun_but I inserted a rw cd and it does not detect21:04
hndcraniumslows: i asked no one hears me... :(21:04
histoCool_Nick: You need to change your sharing options in windows then if you don't want to supply user pass and domain. Make it part of a workgroup people in #windows would probably be able to help you set up the share.21:04
Loshajared_1: I think they are 2 separate issues. You can run a simple server environment on a desktop as long as you don't require amazing performance. And you can have some kind of backup scheme ranging from simple disk copies to some kind of raid scheme. The two issues seem orthogonal to me...21:04
mertlevarun_: that's 'cause there's nothing on the disk right?21:04
varun_the one thing that I see in error messages for gnomebaker is wodim does not support the cd writer21:04

hndget_info() in struct proc_dir_entry wht does it do21:05
histojared_1: yeah its not a big deal to run the same packages with a gui on top.21:05
drbongo_I have found the problem by using bind -p : the "e" is not set to self-insert I will try to set it21:06

Flannelra21vi: You can, yes.21:20
derenrich_how do i view pdf using less?21:21
Flannelra21vi: And once 10.04 is released, the instructions will be linked from here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes21:21
pcm_well sound is ok on speakers but not headphones output for nothing21:21
ra21viLosha: means? why should I not upgrade ?? anyway, I need a lot new things.21:21
szimmerderenrich: why would you want to do that?21:21
pepper_hazehow do you read dmesg?21:21
craniumslowspcm_, so is it an unamplified channel?21:21
derenrich_szimmer: there is a plugin that renders it nicely21:21
derenrich_szimmer: i just don't know what package it's in21:22
craniumslowspepper_haze,  you might redirecto output its long21:22
Loshara21vi: the problem with remove upgrades remains: you might lose connectivity during the upgrade and never be able to get it back...21:22
Lxndrzaxonspox: I can do that with *one* doc file. But how do I turn these five doc files into a *single* PDF? That's where I get lost.21:22
Loshara21vi: remove -> remote21:22
ra21viFlannel: thanks :)  I will wait then..21:22
hndpeppr_haze: cat /var/log/dmesg21:22

Blasturhello. if i upgrade to lucid beta 2 today, will it be a problem to upgrade it to lucid final later on?21:23
FlannelLosha: If we wanted to go by that, no one should ever upgrade, ever.21:23
ra21viLosha: cannot you use Screen for such problem?21:23
FlannelBlastur: Nope, you'll just use regular daily updates.  #ubuntu+1 is the channel for Lucid Support though.21:23

hndBlastur nopes... i dont think so...21:23
ImprovizAny ideas on the C/H/S values issue? It's something bout looking for my floppy or some such I think. Trying fix with Grub fix on Live CD21:23
craniumslowspcm_, if its the same plug you are plugging into you should look into your sound preferences21:23
hiexpobut ya cant take it back if ya decide ya dontlike it21:24
hndImproviz: whts the exact situation21:24
LoshaFlannel: nevertheless, the risk is there for a remote upgrade, and ra21vi should understand what his worst case scenario might be...21:24
pcm_craniumslows, speakers are not pluged, they are buit-in, its a laptop21:24
ImprovizInstalled 9.04 I believe, wiped the drive and did the install. Now when it boots, I get a grub error and "Cannot read C/H/S values"21:24
FlannelLosha: The risk is there for any upgrade. I'm not sure how it being remote is a big deal.  There's even a secondary ssh channel opened during upgrades.21:24
craniumslowspcm_, you should go tot he sound preferences21:25
pepper_hazecraniumslows, how do you redirecto output?21:25
pcm_craniumslows, ive done that and cant realy se what is wrong21:25
hndok try e2fsck might be due to some filesystem error21:25
craniumslowspepper_haze, do dmesg > somefile.txt; gedit somefile.txt21:25

craniumslowspepper_haze, its all the kernel msgs21:26
ImprovizI'm on the machine in question now, running from Live CD21:26

ra21viFlannel and Losha : for such problem, if it happens, I can pick my phone, dial the datacenter no. and ask them to do remaining things :)21:26
LoshaFlannel: well, you've been here for years. What about the scores of users who show up here saying their upgrade went wrong somehow, and now they can't boot, and they *have* console access...21:26

Loshatvstebut: According to the trace, 10.8.0.6 sends an IP echo request to 192.168.121.1, which tries to reply. In order to reply, it has to resolve .6 to a mac address, so .1 broadcasts an arp request asking which mac has .6, and the router should reply "I have .6 and my mac address is so-and-so" because the reply has to be sent first to the router and then forwarded back to .6. But that arp reply never appears, i.e. a router malfunction...21:52

og01hiexpo: its already isntalled, it got upgraded along with the update to karmic22:14
Loshatvstebut: don't confuse symptom with cause. The reason the target can't update its arp table is because the router is not issuing an arp reply, per the trace. I still think the problem is on the router, and has something to do with the routing between the tunnel and the .254 interface. Sorry, I'm not very good with vlan routing...22:14

szimmersure i'll do... but this is only somewhat related... there should be the possibility to prevent my computer losing its ssh server... by restarting it whenever necessary...22:17
Flanneltotimkopf: Lucid will have 5.3.2, Karmic has 5.2 plus some updates22:17
hiexpoog01, ok just install those packages i mentioned than22:18
szimmeri thought a cron job would be helpful22:18

hiexpobrb22:18

og01hiexpo: the w32codec i think arnt avaliable for amd64, and also i think its mainly for wma files?22:18
totimkopfFlannel, i guess i'll just have to find a deb package or compile it22:18
Flanneltotimkopf: Or wait a month.22:18

I like to develop for GTK .. seems better for me and i found that GTK development somewhat is compilcated and some other project like gtkmm is a good start . I read also about GTK# of mono develop . I realy don't care about patents .I care about22:59
dr3mro the code be easy to manage and uses the least amount of RAM ( that's why i Left python a hello world gtk app in python uses 5.6 MB without the PY process and c++ uses just as low as 1 MB of ram)..

craniumslowsmyrl, let me know what it tells you23:38
szimmerwell... so i actually need to go there and restart my computers manually... argh..23:38
szimmer*sigh*23:38
soreauSigiken: If you ran linux directly, you would likely not have the problems you're experiencing23:38
myrlhmm it did it23:38
craniumslowsszimmer, at least you're "local" I've accidentally done that to a server liek 1000 miles away23:39

SigikenWell, I like ubuntu, and I'm still learning a lot about it, but there are to many applications and games that don't work on Ubuntu23:40
szimmerubottu shut up23:41
SirRedToothWine? Virtualbox?23:41
myrlubottu: hi23:41
DarthPuffi'm trying to use wpa_gui but i get "could not get status from wpa_supplicant23:41
ubottuHi! 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!23:41
SigikenI'd liked to get more experienced in Ubuntu before I would install it next to windows23:41
myrlubottu: eat pie23:42
marconao sei fazer isto23:42
craniumslowsSigiken, the "unleashed" books i like23:42
myrlcraniumslows,  help please?23:42
Sigikenthanks for the tip :) definatly going to take a look at it23:42
craniumslowsmyrl, so you did the sudo mount and it gave no err23:42
zaxonspoxSigiken then get know about GRUB, RunLevels, directory structures23:42
doctorZeusthe unleashed books are terrible imo--they cover things in a rudimentary depth (at best) and you can find the same info online.. if you run into issues, you have to go online anyways23:42
myrlyes23:42
craniumslowsmyrl,  what does just typing sudo mount do?23:42
myrlcraniumslows,  it says a lot of stuff23:43
craniumslowsmyrl, ok do any of the lines have /dev/sdXX on them?23:43
myrlcraniumslows,  but it doesn't say the windows partition23:43
myrlcraniumslows,  no23:44
craniumslowsmyrl,  I'm going to recommend you follow the tutorial found here : http://www.arsgeek.com/2006/09/25/ubuntu-tricks-how-to-mount-your-windows-partition-and-make-it-readwritable/23:45
=== LiteralKa is now known as Fou-Lu
myrlthanks23:45
craniumslowsmyrl,  You may have to reinstall windows and then resetup grub to get things working smoothly23:46
Sigikennice, this book even covers the next version of ubuntu, I'm not sure but could it be the xserver configuration? Because, after installing the guest additions, the file was empty, and I've googled for setting xorg.conf up, but I'm not sure if it is set up correct.23:46
szimmerwow ... how many bots are there in here?23:46
craniumslowsszimmer, i dunno23:46
myrlcraniumslows,  ok23:46
dooberAnyone know why I can't update tzdata in Ubuntu Netbook Remix?23:46
ImprovizWell, no luck. Still getting 'Cannot get C/H/S values" when I try to boot from HD23:46
szimmerat least the only voiced user seems a bot...23:46
craniumslowsszimmer, it's usually polite to name your bot *bot* somehow23:46
DarthPuffusing apt-get is there a way to completely remove the last apt-get install i did?23:47
craniumslowsImproviz, the CHS values to mean means disk geometry is off from when the partition table was written23:47
craniumslows*to me23:47
ImprovizYeah, tried completely wiping and reinstalling again (Karmic 9.10)23:48
ImprovizNo luck23:48
mertleDarthPuff: it should be recorded in the log - via apt idk23:48
craniumslowsImproviz, can you boot to a terminal and use fdisk on it23:48
Nick_ColleyHey23:48
ImprovizI'm on the machine right now. booted from Live CD23:48
duffydackSigiken, for virtualbox all you need is the guest additions installed.. no xorg config.23:48
Nick_ColleyDoes anyone know anything about the brightness problem in Samsung NC10s?23:48

ardchoille!ask | necromankas23:49
ubottunecromankas: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-)23:49
necromankasI mounted a MicroSD Card and it automatically locks all the content, how to i unlock it?23:50
Nick_ColleyI'll repeat mine on one line23:50
SigikenWell, i'll delete everything I have put in, and try if it helps23:50
craniumslowsnecromankas, is the readonly tabl clicked over ?23:50
abstrakthow do i make gimp rescan my fonts folder(s) ?23:50
Nick_ColleyDoes anyone know how to fix the brightness problem in samsung NC10s running unbuntu23:50
Nick_ColleyAbstrakt23:50
necromankasYes craniumslows.23:50
duffydackabstrakt, restart it23:50

abstraktoh well23:51
Nick_ColleywaIT WAIT23:51
Nick_Colleywait*23:51
Nick_ColleyI think there is a refresh button23:51
Nick_ColleyNot sure. let me check for you23:51
craniumslowsabstrakt, http://docs.gimp.org/en/gimp-font-dialog.html23:51
dooberAnyone know why I can't update tzdata in Ubuntu Netbook Remix?  Update Manager is failing.23:51
SuperMiguelis this really that fast? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BootToRAM23:51
craniumslowsyou go to the fonts dialog and then click the refresh button at the bottom23:52
Nick_ColleySo the confirm that23:52
karim_frli cannot delete file on my remoevd disk23:52

Nick_ColleyAnyone know how to fix my brightness problem?23:53
LoshaSuperMiguel: dunno, never spoken to anyone who's actually done it...23:54
necromankasOkay, I guess i'll rephrase :) How do I make a read-only folder so it can read it so i can modify the content?23:54
craniumslowsImproviz, the only idea i'm having is to try manually setting up your partitions during install and maybe not using the whole disk just to test it ?23:54
Improvizcraniumslows-how's that work?23:55
zaxonspoxnecromankas did youn mount manually?23:56
necromankasYeah23:56
craniumslowsImproviz, The only thing I keep thinking of is that its asking for the Cylinders Heads and Sectors count so maybe if you start your partition on a different sector it'll figure it out.  Might do a low level scan of the HDD if you have alot of time23:56
necromankasIt isn't detected when i try to mount it via the terminal23:56
SigikenIt helped a lot, I just tried to run frozen-bubble full screen, and ubuntu didn't hang. But Is it possible to have a higher resolution then 640 x 480? It's the only option available in "Display Preferences"23:56
jsemar If i have a hard drive that's been encrypted wth ubuntu alternate cd, does it make sense that I would have a hard time installing another OS? CentOS throwing an exception like 5 seconds into the install?23:56
Loshaszimmer: there is ubottu, and various floodbots, and that's it, I think...23:56
zaxonspoxnecromankas mayby try with rw option in mount?23:56
mertlenecromankas: tried to chmod +w the folder?23:56
necromankaszaxonspox - I'm a ubuntu newbie :)23:57
necromankasHow would i do that?23:57
craniumslowsnecromankas, when you call mount from term you throw out the -w flag for read/write synonym for -o rw23:57
ACKT1Chi23:58
craniumslowsnecromankas, did your device format the card or did you do it in windows etc?23:58
akeelQuestion: Does anybody know how to replace characters in txt file using c?23:58
necromankasIt was done in windows23:58
Sigikenodd that this has fixed it, because before I have modified the xorg.conf it was empty and it didn't work then23:58
vegar_you're kidding?23:58
ACKT1Cedit23:58
craniumslowsakeel, you might check a programming channel (fyi you'd read in the file char by char and work on it that way usually)23:58
Improvizcraniumslows-so, during install, what should I tell Ubunto to do to get diff sectors, etc.?23:59
ardchoilleACKT1C: do you have an ubuntu support question?23:59
ACKT1Cwhere are the ops23:59
szimmerthere are no ops ;)23:59
jsemarwas i just invisible? (did the last thing i asked come up in chat? i hadn't identified with Nickerv yet)23:59
