[00:01] <Moral_> exactly except my time
[00:01] <Moral_> I may switch to arch
[00:01] <Moral_> as 9.10 sucks
[00:01] <trinikrono> lol
[00:01] <FloodBot3> Moral_: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.

[00:02] <trinikrono> =\
[00:02] <iceroot> Moral_: you have a support-question? elsewhere go to #ubuntu-offtopic
[00:02] <Moral_> iceroot, sure, why did it kill my kernel?
[00:02] <kruizes> hi
[00:03] <iceroot> Moral_: what do you mea with "killed my kernel"?
[00:03] <iceroot> Moral_: error-messages and so on please
[00:03] <Moral_> Aight gimme a min to type all this crap out.
[00:03] <iceroot> Moral_: and change your language
[00:03] <Moral_> you saying I can't say crap?
[00:03] <iceroot> Moral_: correct
[00:04] <Moral_> This place is crazier than a nazi internment camp.
[00:04] <Moral_> But I will do as you wish.
[00:04] <iceroot> Moral_: please stop that here
[00:04] <cloudlevi> lol censor
[00:04] <calum> lol
[00:04] <cloudlevi> Anyway...I has a problemz
[00:04] <cloudlevi> error! ERROR! So I had Win7...and it BRICKED my optical drive functionality! TOTAL FUBAR
[00:05] <Moral_> iceroot: One or more mounts listed in /etc/fstab cannot yet be mounted: swap waiting for /dev/mapper/cryptswap1 press ESC to enter a Recovery Shell
[00:05] <epicblusta> Third Ubuntu installer download today. Can anyone tell me why is it really hard to install Ubuntu 9.10?
[00:05] <cloudlevi> Code 13 on all optical drives, internal and external. I expected that to change after I got Ubuntu but NOPE!!!
[00:05] <iceroot> Moral_: so when you press esc and in the recovery shell ^D is it working then?
[00:06] <Moral_> iceroot, It wont even drop me into the shell.
[00:06] <Sia--> epicblusta, is realy more than simple
[00:06] <calum> Installing 9.10 is easy :(
[00:06] <iceroot> Moral_: ah as i see you are using a crypted swap
[00:06] <Moral_> Yea, should I not?
[00:06] <Sia--> hard installing is Gentoo or archlinux or BSD
[00:06] <cloudlevi> Linux = not user friendly. =/
[00:06] <calum> BSD is hard to install
[00:06] <zash> I'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] <cloudlevi> calum: What's BSD?
[00:07] <Moral_> Sia--, I installed freeBSD yesterday it was pretty easy, it's getting better
[00:07] <Sia--> clous
[00:07] <calum> Berkley software distribution - a version of Unix
[00:07] <iceroot> again, can you stop that off-topic here?
[00:07] <epicblusta> Sia--: Calum: Well, i'm sure it's easier than most distros
[00:07] <cloudlevi> I've heard of BSG =D
[00:07] <Sia--> Moral_, maybe, because i'm not touching BSd since 6 years
[00:07] <epicblusta> Sia--: Calum: But comparing to other Ubuntu versions?
[00:07] <Moral_> Yea 6 years ago was brutal.
[00:07] <Sia--> e
[00:08] <Moral_> iceroot, anything I can do in a recovery consol?
[00:08] <cloudlevi> Anyway... former Code 13, current brickification. I would LOVE to have an optical drive!!!
[00:08] <calum> epicblusta: Comparing to Ubuntu - Ubuntu installation is way easier.
[00:08] <iceroot> Moral_: you say its not loading?
[00:08] <iceroot> Moral_: so you cant use th shell?
[00:08] <Moral_> iceroot, Also new errors: Gimme a min to pastebin it.
[00:09] <cloudlevi> calum: You work here, right? Got any idea? Windows 7 slapped a Code 13 on my optical drive, USB optical drives don't work now, and Ubuntu didn't fix it like I thought. Code 13 = configuration in the Registry be kill'd.
[00:09] <mudassar> hello 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 ??
[00:10] <john__> will someone help me get lm-sensors working? I'm looking a tut from 2007, I don't know if it's still valid
[00:10] <iceroot> mudassar: you are talking about ubuntu?
[00:10] <calum> cloudlevi: Sorry I don't know about optical drives. Can't help there :(
[00:10] <cloudlevi> calum: 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 DX
[00:10] <hiexpo> john__, whats the prob
[00:11] <Moral_> iceroot, http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/411842/
[00:11] <cloudlevi> calum: Know who can?
[00:11] <mudassar> iceroot: I am talking in general, for any linux .......more specifically it is for CentOS
[00:11] <calum> cloudlevi: 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 temp
[00:11] <john__> instead of like 10 things, I get 1
[00:11] <iceroot> mudassar: #xen and #centos
[00:11] <calum> Is there a good Nintendo gamecube for Ubuntu?
[00:11] <iceroot> Moral_: is the whole drive crpted?
[00:12] <calum> emulator
[00:12] <Random832> calum: why not get a real gamecube? or a wii?
[00:12] <Moral_> iceroot, it shouldn't have been, only my /home/user should have been.
[00:12] <john__> o wait I did something wrong
[00:12] <john__> Dolphin does GC and wii Emulation
[00:12] <Moral_> iceroot, would it be easier for me to just reinstall as this was a fresh install anyway.
[00:12] <calum> Random832: I have one, I just want it portable for holidays etc
[00:12] <pider> john_ http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2780
[00:12] <cloudlevi> Random832: Wiibuntu? lol
[00:12] <iceroot> Moral_: a fresh install of 9.10?
[00:12] <Random832> IIRC gamecube disks don't work in drives you can have in a computer, so you'd have to download roms illegally
[00:13] <mudassar> iceroot: I was expecting this, that's why asked in general
[00:13] <Alan502> calum, dolphin runs on ubuntu
[00:13] <calum> Random832: Its not illegal because I own the game
[00:13] <cantoma> guys, 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] <iceroot> mudassar: :)
[00:13] <cloudlevi> Jup jup. GC and Wii disks spin BACKWARDS!!!
[00:13] <Random832> calum: how portable? they make a screen and battery pack you can attach to a gamecube
[00:13] <Random832> (i don't know about such a thing for the wii, but wouldn't be surprised)
[00:13] <john__> they don't spin backwards
[00:13] <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] <mudassar> iceroot: actually centos people are not replying
[00:13] <calum> Alan502: I thought it was for windows...
[00:13] <Random832> they odn't spin backwards, they read from the outside in i thought
[00:14] <cloudlevi> john__: o_O I read that they did. Hooold up
[00:14] <Random832> so they spin the same direction but the spiral is mirrored
[00:14] <calum> Random832: Well basically my laptop is the closest thing to dragging my gamecube around
[00:14] <iceroot> mudassar: but this is ubuntu support and not xen support
[00:14] <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 drive
[00:14] <john__> I've heard that as well, but it's false
[00:14] <iceroot> mudassar: you will find better answers in #xen to see how multiple isos can be used
[00:14] <linux3> can xawtv be streamed live for chatting?
[00:15] <Alan502> calum, http://code.google.com/p/dolphin-emu/   you can build it for linux, there's instructions on that page
[00:15] <mudassar> iceroot: I joined the channel where I get answers :)
[00:16] <calum> Alan502: Ahh good. I don't want to use wine with it.
[00:16] <Alan502> calum, absolutely! using wine to emulate windows to emulate gamecube??? lol!
[00:17] <harovali1> where do I set the preferred locale?
[00:17] <cloudlevi> john__: Know anything about data-bricked optical drives?
[00:18] <calum> Alan502: Yeh, lol... too many emulators already
[00:19] <cloudlevi> XD Yup

[00:19] <embajador> hola a todos
[00:19] <hiexpo> !spanis | embajador
[00:19] <embajador> yes
[00:19] <john__> data-bricked optical drives? i.e. drives that wont' read discs?
[00:19] <erUSUL> !es | embajador
[00:20] <embajador> nadie habla español
[00:20] <cloudlevi> john__: Code 13 courtesy of Win7 retail and a manufacturer registry update. Oddly enough, it carries OUT of Windows and prevents all use of optical drives...even USB externals...
[00:20] <erUSUL> embajador: en #ubuntu-es si.  Escribe "/join #ubuntu-es" (sin comillas) y dale a enter.
[00:21] <cloudlevi> john__: And there is no trace of Windows left on my computer. Maybe the system update I'm rounding up now will fix it...dunno...
[00:21] <john__> optical drives work in bios?
[00:21] <cloudlevi> john__: ^^ Nope
[00:22] <erUSUL> harovali1: System>Preferences>Language support
[00:22] <john__> wow
[00:22] <john__> ide or sata?

[00:23] <cloudlevi> John__: Sony VAIO Optiarc DVD RW AD-7560A
[00:24] <john__> hmm
[00:24] <cloudlevi> john__: BRB...Update requires restart.
[00:24] <john__> if it doesn't show up in BIOS a linux update won't fix anything

[00:28] <cloudlevi> john__: How on bloody EARTH could a Windows driver update DO this?!!
[00:28] <john__> um

[00:29] <cloudlevi> It was an OEM update!
[00:29] <Alan502> !ubuntulite
[00:29] <hiexpo> ConcreteRose, is the user you are tring to create in there if so remove it and reintall the user
[00:29] <cloudlevi> Yeah, but how's that gonna kill externals?
[00:29] <Alan502> !lubuntu

[00:49] <sab> calum, ok
[00:49] <vinnyM3> sab k3b is a good iso burner
[00:50] <vinnyM3> k3b is in the apt repositories
[00:50] <psycho_oreos> sab, you do know what a burner is right? an optical drive capable of recording discs, if you have the box in front or near you, you should be able to see how many optical drives and which ones are burner

[00:51] <Arch_NME> what is x server??
[00:51] <minimec> as I said... check the settings in gstreamer-properties. Maybe install pavucontrol. What version of Ubuntu are you using?
[00:51] <calum> I'm wondering if this is to do with my Ubuntu system, wireshark has detected a lot of LLC packets...
[00:51] <Arch_NME> is it possible or desirable to turn off?

[00:53] <markd25> ive said that 6 times now
[00:53] <markd25> i need to know how to remove it
[00:53] <minimec> markd25: sorry... pulseaudio is installed by default...
[00:53] <vinnyM3> whats the source IP of the device
[00:53] <markd25> i think thats what screwed it what

[00:55] <pierreubuntu> Roger about lucid support in #ubuntu+1 thanks!
[00:56] <minimec> Arch_NME: hmmm... I think <ctrl><sysrq>k
[00:56] <vinnyM3> logical link control packets are a normal presence on any network, it's not uncommon to see that type of control protocol coming from a switched device or layer 3 device like your router.
[00:56] <maco> minimec: Arch_NME: it's alt, not ctrl

[00:56] <ConcreteRose> oh ok

[01:00] <Moral_> Meerly what I'm saying is 9.10 sucks
[01:00] <Moral_> 9.10 is the vista of ubuntu, I'm going back to 9.04
[01:00] <hiexpo> !language
[01:00] <Moral_> Seriously, you peopel are crazy sucks isn't bad.
[01:00] <Moral_> Nor is crap.
[01:01] <psycho_oreos> Moral_, there are those who like eye candy and those who don't
[01:01] <greezmunkey> commandline rulz
[01:01] <Alcor> yeah
[01:02] <hiexpo> :)
[01:02] <greezmunkey> So, what's broke today?
[01:02] <hiexpo> my brain
[01:02] <Moral_> Not sure it didn't give me any errors, just meerly told me my kernel is f*ed
[01:02] <calum> Hah, I could say the same
[01:02] <greezmunkey> heh
[01:02] <greezmunkey> hiexpo: uh, you could try a reboot.
[01:03] <ConcreteRose> hi, do you know how i can find out where all servers are connecting from
[01:03] <rodrigosan> hello all. I've a doubt about mbr. Can I ask here?
[01:03] <hiexpo> kernal failed to load
[01:03] <psycho_oreos> ConcreteRose, from where?
[01:03] <greezmunkey> ConcreteRose: which servers?
[01:03] <calum> ConcreteRose: Try netstat -tap
[01:03] <ConcreteRose> ok
[01:03] <calum> at terminal
[01:03] <ConcreteRose> :)
[01:03] <psycho_oreos> then there's lsof -i
[01:04] <ConcreteRose> well, it seems that people had been active in enabling a restricted server zone of people, and i need to find out how they are connected to each other
[01:04] <sab> hi,can any one please tell me how to burn an ISO file using k3b?
[01:04] <psycho_oreos> sab, read the included help file?
[01:04] <sab> psycho_oreos, ok
[01:04] <greezmunkey> ConcreteRose: those commands will show what *your* server is doing, you need a protocol scanner, try wireshark
[01:05] <psycho_oreos> or tshark if you're using CLI
[01:05] <calum> ConcreteRose: Wireshark is awesome, try it out as well.
[01:05] <ConcreteRose> greezmunkey: well that looks like a reason
[01:05] <ConcreteRose> i try
[01:05] <greezmunkey> sab: It's pretty easy, but there is a killer howto, google "ubuntu k3b iso
[01:06] <calum> Use brasero, its the easiest way to burn ISOs :)
[01:06] <rodrigosan> I have a doubt about mbr. Can I ask here?
[01:06] <psycho_oreos> rodrigosan, if its not about ubuntu, you should talk in #ubuntu-offtopic
[01:06] <sab> greezmunkey, ok
[01:07] <greezmunkey> ConcreteRose: Depending on your network, you may be able to detect broadcasts and the like that will infer what's going on.
[01:07] <sab> psycho_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] <calum> Wireshark detects broadcasts
[01:08] <greezmunkey> calum: of course! :)
[01:08] <psycho_oreos> sab, you probably didn't install the help files, just search for k3b's support site
[01:08] <rodrigosan> psycho_oreos, using the ubuntu live cd, how can I "format" my mbr?
[01:08] <psycho_oreos> rodrigosan, why do you want to format? what are you intending to do with it?
[01:09] <ConcreteRose> ok :) but i know whos behind it already, i just wanted to look at what they are capable of.
[01:09] <ConcreteRose> im gonna get it
[01:09] <ConcreteRose> :)
[01:09] <linux3> Can xawtv video by streamed  -- like skype
[01:10] <nullkuhl> Hello, i try to boot ubuntu 9.1032 and 10.04 64bit , the first using cdrom and the 2nd using flash usb, and in both cases i reach the message of (initramfs) Unable to find a medium containing a live file system.  it's an HP Envy 15 notebook. ... Plz Help  .
[01:10] <calum> ConcreteRose: Another good thing for networks is definitely nmap.
[01:10] <rodrigosan> psycho_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] <greezmunkey> ConcreteRose: You can filter out all traffic, other than the IP of the target as well ;)
[01:10] <ConcreteRose> yes
[01:10] <ConcreteRose> that is plausible
[01:10] <ConcreteRose> I will try to use it
[01:10] <psycho_oreos> rodrigosan, so you want to erase it and you do realise your setup will no longer be bootable
[01:10] <benomatic> so... i have a 9.10 system running, and would like to upgrade to 10.04.  do-release-upgrade doesn't detect 10.04 availability... how do I make the jump (preferably command line)?
[01:11] <psycho_oreos> !lucid | benomatic
[01:11] <calum> sudo updatemanager -d
[01:11] <greezmunkey> benomatic: Ask in #ubuntu+1 please
[01:11] <benomatic> danke
[01:11] <psycho_oreos> nullkuhl, have you checked the md5sum on the iso?
[01:12] <nullkuhl> nullkuhl: yes, also its very unlikely that 2 isos get corrupted
[01:12] <rodrigosan> psycho_oreos, but I can try to write on mbr if the mbr are cleaned.
[01:12] <nullkuhl> psycho_oreos: ^^
[01:12] <psycho_oreos> nullkuhl, then again, good idea to check, and how did you go about putting it on flash drive?
[01:12] <rodrigosan> psycho_oreos, cleaned or fixed or recovered. I don't know
[01:13] <psycho_oreos> rodrigosan, you can't really fix or recover mbr, but it can be cleared
[01:13] <nullkuhl> psycho_oreos: for putting on flash drive, i used lili tool
[01:13] <psycho_oreos> nullkuhl, try unetbootin
[01:14] <nullkuhl> psycho_oreos: but i get the same message even when booting from cdrom
[01:14] <psycho_oreos> rodrigosan, 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/file
[01:14] <alb> hola tods
[01:15] <bazhang> !es | alb
[01:15] <hiexpo> !es
[01:15] <psycho_oreos> nullkuhl, I'm not going to bother supporting cd :) bad burns are more prevalent than flashing onto usb drive
[01:15] <nullkuhl> psycho_oreos: ok ill try unetbootin now
[01:15] <vanishing> hi everyone
[01:16] <psycho_oreos> nullkuhl, fyi for support on 10.04 join #ubuntu+1 and ask there
[01:16] <vanishing> im wondering how can i regenerate the mysql.conf in /etc/init?
[01:16] <nullkuhl> psycho_oreos: am having the same issue with 9.10 as well
[01:16] <rodrigosan> psycho_oreos, Probably my mbr isn't working correctly. I need to try test this or fix this without change my hd.
[01:17] <psycho_oreos> nullkuhl, yes I read that previously but discussions/support on 10.04 should be directed to that channel, not here
[01:17] <cloudlevi> So anyone know what the Ubuntu equivalent to Device Manager is?
[01:17] <maginot> vanishing, you don't generate a mysql.conf in /etc/init.. this file belongs to /etc/mysql
[01:17] <Sia--> vanishing, you should stop mysqld first
[01:17] <psycho_oreos> rodrigosan, you can't test it, you have to write to it, but you can make backups and then erase the data
[01:17] <maginot> vanishing, and I think is my.cf
[01:18] <vanishing> Sia--: maginot: it is stopped..and i deleted it by mistake..now i want it back..how can i do it?
[01:18] <sab> I got an weired problem,I am using ubuntu and win7 in my machine,but most often after shutdown my laptop when I power on I found GRUB loader failure"that mean no boot loader",I install ubuntu again and got the boot loader.
[01:18] <psycho_oreos> cloudlevi, not that I know of personally, there's various tools, depends on what you want to achieve
[01:18] <vanishing> maginot: it is an upstart script
[01:18] <vanishing> maginot: not config file
[01:18] <sab> can any one please tell me why this happen?
[01:18] <psycho_oreos> sab, which one was installed first?
[01:18] <goddard> Is it possible to setup an email server when using dyndns without buying there mail services?
[01:18] <ConcreteRose> hi
[01:18] <h00k> sab: Some windows security software will write the MBR without checking to see if there is anything there
[01:18] <maginot> vanishing, dpkg-reconfigure mysql-server-5.1 ?
[01:19] <sab> psycho_oreos, ubuntu
[01:19] <cloudlevi> psycho_oreos: Trying to scan my Bluetooth dongle. No Ubuntu native drivers for the pup, so I've gotta find out its model or serial considering it's unmarked and I swear to all it was repackaged.
[01:19] <Sm0kee> http://i43.tinypic.com/aoapmg.gif
[01:19] <ConcreteRose> what was the name of that open source long big program for music studio in linux?
[01:19] <psycho_oreos> sab, if you installed linux first, and then win7, the grub bootloader will be automatically overwritten by win7
[01:19] <cloudlevi> OH! DURR!!! I can hook it up to Windows and scan it XDDD
[01:19] <maginot> vanishing, or just: dpkg-reconfigure mysql-server  did you tried that?
[01:19] <rodrigosan> psycho_oreos, tank you a lot.
[01:19] <vanishing> maginot: ok..gonna try it
[01:19] <psycho_oreos> cloudlevi, there's a CLI tool called lsusb
[01:19] <vanishing> maginot: tried mysql-server, nothing
[01:20] <vanishing> maginot: gonna try with 5.1
[01:20] <h00k> sab: I've had this problem on a few machines.  It's Windows related software that is doing this, perhaps a backup-type program
[01:20] <Jef91> Anyone know how I can stop knetworkmanager from loading on startup in KDE?
[01:20] <cloudlevi> psycho: How I access that?
[01:20] <vanishing> maginot: nope...nothing
[01:20] <psycho_oreos> cloudlevi, open up terminal and type that command in
[01:20] <sab> h00k, what can be the solution?
[01:20] <h00k> sab: remove that Windows software.
[01:20] <cloudlevi> psycho: what command? o_O sudo get?
[01:20] <cloudlevi> ...*noob*
[01:21] <psycho_oreos> cloudlevi, open up terminal and type in "lsusb" (without quotes)
[01:21] <maginot> vanishing, maybe this can help you: http://maginot.pastebin.com/L1iRRTwF
[01:21] <sab> h00k, that means i cant use safely windows and ubuntu parallely?
[01:22] <h00k> sab: It depends on what software in Windows is doing it.
[01:22] <vanishing> maginot: that is the content of mysql.conf?
[01:22] <cloudlevi> psycho: o_O this is odd...got seven USB ports on the list and only two of them are USB 2.0.  --- A.) I only have four ports. B.) I'm pretty sure they're all USB2
[01:22] <maginot> vanishing, no, there is no mysql.conf, that is the content of /etc/init.d/mysql
[01:22] <sab> h00k, what soft can be?any idea please tell me
[01:22] <linux3> I get an error code with Cheese run in verbose mode "libv4lconvert:  Error decompressing JPEG:  unknown huffman code:  0000ffff"
[01:22] <vanishing> maginot: i have /etc/init.d/mysql
[01:22] <vanishing> maginot: i need /etc/init/mysql.conf...
[01:22] <greezmunkey> debian, bah
[01:23] <h00k> sab: Sometimes backup software
[01:23] <lcabrini> vanishing: /etc/mysql/my.cnf
[01:23] <h00k> sab: I have no idea what you have installed.  Look through what Windows stuff you have and try to figure out what it might be.
[01:23] <maginot> vanishing, I don't imagine what this "mysql.conf" file is, never heard about it.
[01:23] <psycho_oreos> cloudlevi, probably the other 3 are just USB headers (i.e. there's soldering point for it but no actual hardware bits are soldered onto it and made visible outside the machine
[01:23] <linux3> I get an error code with Cheese run in verbose mode "libv4lconvert:  Error decompressing JPEG:  unknown huffman code:  0000ffff"
[01:23] <maginot> vanishing, and I don't have it on my setup
[01:24] <cloudlevi> psycho: MODDING!!! =D
[01:24] <vanishing> maginot: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/getting-started.html
[01:24] <psycho_oreos> cloudlevi, there's lots of other potential variables but that's not ubuntu related
[01:24] <betamine>              
[01:25] <vanishing> maginot: can you do "start mysql" or "stop mysql"?
[01:25] <cloudlevi> psycho: Right... so anyway...  - AH! Here we go!!!
[01:25] <greezmunkey> Is there anything I need to consider if I want to install a usb hub? Should I expect problems?
[01:25] <maginot> vanishing, service mysql stop
[01:25] <cloudlevi> it's an "Integrated System Solution Corp. Bluetooth Device"
[01:25] <Sia--> vanishing, yes /etc/init.d/mysql stop
[01:25] <psycho_oreos> greezmunkey, install? you mean you actually bought the hardware? generally no
[01:25] <mneptok> vanishing: what are you trying to do, exactly?
[01:26] <vanishing> maginot: start: Unknown job: mysql
[01:26] <h00k> greezmunkey: if it's not powered, you probably can't use a ton of devices off it, that's about it
[01:26] <maginot> vanishing, I know what upstart is, just don't ever heard about mysql.conf
[01:26] <vanishing> maginot: because mysql.conf is missing..
[01:26] <psycho_oreos> cloudlevi, doesn't really help, what you actually need is the pci:id or in this case the usb:id, which is in the form of XXXX:XXXX
[01:26] <Sia--> mneptok, changing mysql service to mssql :D
[01:26] <mneptok> vanishing: sudo invoke-rc.d mysql-server start
[01:26] <vanishing> Sia--: does not work....
[01:26] <maginot> vanishing, "service mysql start/stop"
[01:26] <vanishing> mneptok: trying to find /etc/init/mysql.conf
[01:26] <Sia--> vanishing, apt-cache policy mysql
[01:26] <ConcreteRose> how do i use wireshark to sniff on the isp infrastructure?
[01:26] <greezmunkey> psycho_oreos: I haven't bought one yet, I tried a really cheap non powered one that didn't work at all a few months ago.
[01:26] <mneptok> vanishing: how did you install MySQL?
[01:27] <greezmunkey> ConcreteRose: you don't
[01:27] <Sia--> vanishing, 'locate mysql.conf'
[01:27] <bazhang> ConcreteRose, for what purpose
[01:27] <vanishing> mneptok: using synaptics
[01:27] <h00k> !piracy | ConcreteRose
[01:27] <vanishing> mneptok: ugh...samething..
[01:27] <lcabrini> vanishing, the file is called my.cnf
[01:27] <ConcreteRose> analyzing their data or something
[01:27] <vanishing> Sia--: nothing came up..
[01:27] <psycho_oreos> greezmunkey, well you'd have issues of what h00k described.. and I personally don't advise purchasing non-powered USB hubs
[01:27] <Arch_NME> I still got that error about x server when I logged on to xterm
[01:27] <mneptok> vanishing: and did you install mysql-server?
[01:27] <lcabrini> and is in /etc/mysql/my.cnf
[01:27] <bazhang> ConcreteRose, you Don't
[01:27] <vanishing> lcabrini: im not loooking for the config file.....
[01:28] <vanishing> mneptok: yes. i did
[01:28] <Sia--> vanishing, you have to instal mysql first and came her to get support
[01:28] <nullkuhl> psycho_oreos: ok same issue
[01:28] <lcabrini> vanishing: then what are you looking for?
[01:28] <maginot> vanishing, Sia--, mysql.conf doesn't exist, at leat not by default, mysql can be stoped/started with service mysql start/stop
[01:28] <mneptok> vanishing: what release of Ubuntu?
[01:28] <greezmunkey> ConcreteRose: wireshark will only look at the subnet that the machine running it is on.
[01:28] <Sia--> !tell vanishing about lamp
[01:28] <ConcreteRose> well thats too bad :)
[01:28] <ConcreteRose> ....
[01:28] <vanishing> lcabrini: upstart job script.........................
[01:28] <psycho_oreos> nullkuhl, on karmic? sounds like weird hardware issue
[01:28] <greezmunkey> ConcreteRose: I should say physical network
[01:28] <terry445> Is this a place I can ask question for help?
[01:29] <mneptok> vanishing: MySQL is started via SysV, not Upstart
[01:29] <cloudlevi> psycho: ISSCEDRBTA?
[01:29] <Sia--> terry445, yes
[01:29] <_pg_> yup
[01:29] <nullkuhl> psycho_oreos: what should i do then , am at console now with (initramfs) :
[01:29] <Am4no> Jef91:this may help http://kubuntuforums.net/forums/index.php?topic=3110104.0
[01:29] <vanishing> mneptok: ok...
[01:29] <vanishing> mneptok: look
[01:29] <Arch_NME> how to I close x server?
[01:29] <greezmunkey> ConcreteRose: That's why I mentioned that you may be able to see enough to "infer" what's going on.
[01:29] <vanishing> mneptok: i tried /etc/init.d/mysql start
[01:29] <hiexpo> this is not a channel to teach hacking methods or such maybe one should try a forensic distro
[01:29] <Sia--> Arch_NME, Alt+CTL+F2
[01:29] <vanishing> mneptok: nothing
[01:29] <cloudlevi> psycho: Now how do I apply this knowledge? *hooked it up to a Win7 to find the info*
[01:29] <psycho_oreos> nullkuhl, what was the error messages leading up to it?
[01:29] <mneptok> vanishing: because it's mysql-server, not mysql
[01:30] <Sia--> !tell vanishing about mysql
[01:30] <nullkuhl> (initramfs) : "unable to find a medium containing a life file system"
[01:30] <psycho_oreos> cloudlevi, no, probably not a good idea, just pastebin (not paste) your lsusb output
[01:30] <greezmunkey> h00k: psycho_oreos , got that - thanks :)
[01:30] <nullkuhl> psycho_oreos: ^^
[01:30] <maginot> mneptok, actually here is mysql, vanishing if you can't start with "/etc/init.d/mysql start" them your mysql-server installation is corrupted or wrong
[01:30] <vanishing> mneptok: ..............i tried using /etc/init.d/mysql before..and it was working..just recently it died
[01:30] <h00k> ubottu: tell cloudlevi about pastebinit
[01:30] <vanishing> maginot: i tried reinstall it today...
[01:30] <mneptok> vanishing: is this Karmic, Hardy, what?
[01:30] <markd25> i installed pulseaudio which caused my sound to stop working when i try to test the settings using gstreamer-properties this is what i get  'Autodetect': Failed to connect: Connection refused [pulsesink.c(447): gst_pulseringbuffer_open_device (): /GstPulseSink:autoaudiosink1-actual-sink-pulse]
[01:30] <terry445> ok, when I format a usb thumb drive in Ubuntu and put mp3's on it, it won't play in my car stereo that has an mp3 plugin.  When I do the same in Win**** it does work.  I formatted it using the "compatable with all filesystems" options.
[01:31] <vanishing> mneptok: higher than karmic...
[01:31] <mneptok> vanishing: Lucid?
[01:31] <vanishing> mneptok: i know you gona redirect me to lucid
[01:31] <markd25> can someone help me fix this
[01:31] <psycho_oreos> nullkuhl, hmm, I'd try getting grub4dos, what sort of flash device are we talking about here?
[01:31] <psycho_oreos> greezmunkey, no worries
[01:31] <vanishing> mneptok: but this is something wrong with mysql..not lucid..
[01:31] <vanishing> mneptok: yes..
[01:31] <maginot> vanishing, but if you removed files from the default install you will have problem reinstalling... you have to remove the package mysql-server from /var/lib/dpkg/status and install it again with "apt-get install mysql-server"
[01:31] <mneptok> vanishing: yes, i am. you're using beta software and complaining when it breaks.
[01:31] <mneptok> vanishing: please ask in #ubuntu+1
[01:31] <vanishing> maginot: hmm....ill try that..
[01:31] <vanishing> maginot: thanks
[01:32] <maginot> vanishing, please, just backup /var/lib/dpkg/status before
[01:32] <nullkuhl> psycho_oreos: normal usb flash disk
[01:32] <markd25> hello???
[01:32] <gmc_> terry445: format with fat32
[01:32] <psycho_oreos> nullkuhl, define normal, which brand which model?
[01:32] <vanishing> maginot: lol..thanks.. i was about to ask you where was this status file...i forgot..lols
[01:32] <Sia--> terry445, firs unmount the usb then format it
[01:32] <mneptok> maginot: now that we know vanishing is using Lucid, his/her questions belong in #ubuntu+1. not here.
[01:33] <Arch_NME> sia:  that did not close x server
[01:33] <maginot> mneptok, indeed.
[01:33] <mneptok> vanishing: please ask in #ubuntu+1. this channel is not for Lucid support problems.
[01:33] <terry445> gmc_ that "compatable with all filesystems is fat32

[01:33] <terry445> Sia--: I'm not saying that it wont format...it will.  It just wont play.  I get an "error 4" on my head unit
[01:34] <Arch_NME> sia: I don't think f1 is any differnt than f2
[01:34] <markd25> can someone help me ive already asked my question
[01:34] <psycho_oreos> nullkuhl, and I assume there's no other data apart from ubuntu 9.10 via unetbootin?
[01:34] <maginot> Arch_NME, yes, you need to close you X11 session before compiling the driver, CTRL+ALT+F1 and issue gdm-stop
[01:34] <Arch_NME> it brought up the terminal and all
[01:34] <h00k> Arch_NME: are you installing it through Hardware Drivers (jockey-gtk) ?
[01:34] <vanishing> mneptok: first..i did not complain..second.i got my answer..ty
[01:34] <nullkuhl> psycho_oreos: yes
[01:34] <h00k> !ask | markd25
[01:34] <markd25> i did ask
[01:34] <markd25> i said
[01:34] <Arch_NME> I have a .run file I got from the nvidia website
[01:34] <psycho_oreos> nullkuhl, its also formatted and the fstype is set to fat32?
[01:34] <ironfoot495> is there a way to restore my display on ubuntu 9.10 server
[01:34] <mneptok> vanishing: great. so please /part this channel and use #ubuntu+1 for support issues with Lucid. thanks.
[01:34] <markd25> i installed pulseaudio and now i hear no sound when i try to test it i get this  'Autodetect': Failed to connect: Connection refused [pulsesink.c(447): gst_pulseringbuffer_open_device (): /GstPulseSink:autoaudiosink1-actual-sink-pulse]
[01:34] <markd25> any ideas how to fix this?
[01:35] <greezmunkey> markd25: missed you query, please restate - I won't bust you for repeating :)
[01:35] <Arch_NME> so gdm stop will kill the x server?
[01:35] <nullkuhl> psycho_oreos: yes, ill try another flash now, to eliminate any specific usb flash issues
[01:35] <psycho_oreos> nullkuhl, and do you have another machine to test the unetbootin setup?
[01:35] <vanishing> mneptok: why should i part with this channel when somebody solved my problem?
[01:35] <Sia--> Arch_NME, yes
[01:35] <greezmunkey> markd25: you installed it, it wasn't already there?
[01:35] <mneptok> vanishing: because you are using Lucid, and this channel is not for Lucid.
[01:35] <markd25> no
[01:36] <markd25> or i don't know
[01:36] <markd25> i screwed it up
[01:36] <markd25> i don't know what i did
[01:36] <Sia--> vanishing, please join #ubuntu+1 my dear

[01:37] <hiexpo> one minute a person is asking how to do a simple taskas remove a user and the next there talking wireshark ///////// there's something weong with that people   :)
[01:37] <Sia--> vanishing, lucid is not supported her my dear
[01:37] <psycho_oreos> vanishing, you can but just don't ask questions about lucid in here
[01:37] <epicblusta> I have tried to install both Ubuntu 9.10 and 9.4 in Virtual Box over OSX10.6
[01:37] <mneptok> vanishing: i do not have confidence that you won't ask more questions here
[01:38] <Sia--> hiexpo, userdel
[01:38] <deadlyblue> I am new to linux/ubuntu and would just like pointed to 1 or a few good site for me to start reading up on this os. thanks for the help
[01:38] <epicblusta> I get a weird error when installing Ubuntu 9.10 and it just crashes the whole computer when I try 10.4
[01:38] <greezmunkey> hiexpo: maybe he has more than one question???
[01:38] <epicblusta> any ideas why, guys?
[01:38] <Sia--> deadkode, ubuntu wiki and google
[01:38] <vanishing> Sia--: psycho_oreos: ok thanks for the tip, im not gonna ask lucid questions
[01:38] <vanishing> mneptok: and where did your confidence come from?
[01:38] <psycho_oreos> epicblusta, pastebin (not paste) your weird error in 9.10
[01:38] <vanishing> mneptok: even if i keep asking questions, how are you confident that i will ask lucid questions?
[01:39] <bazhang> http://www.ubuntupocketguide.com/index_main.html deadlyblue
[01:39] <deadlyblue> ty
[01:39] <greezmunkey> epicblusta: sounds like an OXS issue...
[01:39] <Seq> Does anybody know how I can find out why I only see 3.6/4GB RAM? I'm 64-bit and my video card has dedicated memory.
[01:39] <Sia--> vanishing, be patient please they helping you for free
[01:39] <cloudlevi> psycho - h00k: I'm lost e-e; sorry...
[01:39] <vanishing> what is wrong with you?
[01:39] <bazhang> vanishing, please stop that
[01:40] <Sia--> vanishing, be patient please they helping you for free
[01:40] <greezmunkey> markd25: uname -a ?
[01:40] <epicblusta> psycho_oreos: I do not have the exact error here, but I had a [errrno 5] input/output error: 'target/lib/libx86.so.1'
[01:40] <vanishing> bazhang: what did i do?
[01:40] <cloudlevi> psycho: What's the pastebinit for?
[01:40] <vanishing> Sia--: i know and i appreciate that..
[01:40] <psycho_oreos> cloudlevi, have you pastebinned your lsusb output?
[01:40] <markd25> greezmunkey i posted it in pm
[01:40] <bazhang> vanishing, you have been asked to join #ubuntu+1 many times, please do so
[01:40] <vanishing> Sia--: did i ask more lucid question?
[01:40] <psycho_oreos> cloudlevi, it allows simpler pasting, without using hand to paste any outputs
[01:40] <nullkuhl> psycho_oreos: ok same issue with 2nd flash, and both  works fine on a different machine
[01:40] <Guest50532> Is this the right place to ask questions about conky?
[01:40] <vanishing> bazhang: well..i use karmic too..so i cant stick in ubuntu?
[01:40] <Flannel> vanishing: Please join #ubuntu-ops if you'd like to continue to discuss this so we can keep this channel ontopic, thanks.
[01:40] <hiexpo> greenone,  - true but why would one even need to know wireshark yet if they can not run a simple command ya know / its become crazy its like the gates have open and everyone wants to be the ultimate  hacker did they show hackers on hbo  this month
[01:40] <eycel> Id like to know if my website http://www.mplays.co.cc is working in firefox on others computers
[01:41] <epicblusta> member:psycho_oreos: Something of a very damaged harddrive (over a virtual drive?) or that the computer was too hot....
[01:41] <cloudlevi> psycho: o_o... simpler than right click/copy? You want me to paste it where?
[01:41] <Sia--> vanishing, everthing is done, just let me know what is your next problem ? :)
[01:41] <bastid_raZor> Guest50532: i believe there is a #conky channel. not 100% sure though
[01:41] <greezmunkey> mark, oh - I generally ignore those...brb
[01:41] <bazhang> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=5436679 Guest50532 here is very good beginners guide
[01:41] <psycho_oreos> epicblusta, it could be because of the way the virtual disks are stored or set that could be of an issue
[01:41] <vanishing> Flannel: i didnt...he kicked me
[01:41] <deadlyblue> eycel no you site is not loading for me
[01:41] <Guest50532> Thanks
[01:41] <eycel> ok thanks
[01:41] <bastid_raZor> Guest50532: or use the guide. it worked well for me
[01:41] <LivenDie> eycel: I'm using chromium and it seems to work
[01:41] <psycho_oreos> nullkuhl, so yeah your issue is with HP machine :) its lame
[01:42] <Sia--> vanishing, join #ubuntu-op for more infos
[01:42] <hiexpo> greenone, sorry not meant for u
[01:42] <deadlyblue> eycel sorry your site just now loaded. it is working just slowly
[01:42] <Flannel> vanishing: I'm aware.  If you'd like to discuss that further, or why you should be in #ubuntu+1, or whatnot, please take it elsewhere.  This channel is for Ubuntu support, thanks.
[01:42] <nullkuhl> psycho_oreos: what should i do then, is it a raid / sata issue ?
[01:42] <W43372> I'm having an issue getting a network going between my linux laptop and the other Windows Computers in the house.
[01:42] <hiexpo> greezmunkey,  -  true but why would one even need to know wireshark yet if they can not run a simple command ya know / its become crazy its like the gates have open and everyone wants to be the ultimate  hacker did they show hackers on hbo  this month
[01:42] <epicblusta> psycho_oreos: so, what do you think I could do?
[01:43] <psycho_oreos> nullkuhl, hard to say, but I'd say its probably to do with mem alloc issue, maybe something about the BIOS or memory
[01:43] <eycel> deadlyblue...what comes up?
[01:43] <eycel> oh ok
[01:43] <eycel> thanks
[01:43] <eycel> lol
[01:43] <psycho_oreos> epicblusta, probably a good idea to also try seeking support on virtualbox forums/irc etc
[01:43] <haavaros> I can't get ubuntu one file publishing to work
[01:43] <haavaros> Does anyone know if it works?
[01:43] <cloudlevi> psycho: where do I paste the data? o-o
[01:43] <markd25> @greezmunkey are you still there?
[01:43] <mudassar> how to mount multiple iso's on a single mount point in ubuntu
[01:44] <bazhang> epicblusta, there is also channel #vbox
[01:44] <W43372> I'm having an issue getting a network going between my linux laptop and the other Windows Computers in the house.
[01:44] <psycho_oreos> cloudlevi, into a website called pastebin.. like pastebin.com
[01:44] <epicblusta> psycho_oreos: right, thnx
[01:44] <Alcor> W43372 what kind of issue?
[01:44] <epicblusta> huz_hang: hey thanks!
[01:44] <h00k> haavaros: you can try #ubuntu-one if you have questions regarding that
[01:44] <greezmunkey> hiexpo: chill dude :)
[01:44] <haavaros> h00k: thx
[01:44] <ZykoticK9> mudassar, you need a separate mount point of each iso
[01:44] <greezmunkey> markd25: are you on lucid?
[01:44] <ZykoticK9> mudassar, what are you trying to do?
[01:44] <markd25> yes but thats not the issue
[01:44] <markd25> sound worked before
[01:44] <psycho_oreos> yes it is
[01:44] <cloudlevi> psycho: Just that one, right?
[01:44] <h00k> !lucid | markd25
[01:44] <Arch_NME> hmm
[01:44] <mudassar> I have to install something that is on multiple iso's
[01:44] <hiexpo> greezmunkey, :) lol
[01:45] <bazhang> markd25, #ubuntu+1 please
[01:45] <Arch_NME> well the installer ran succesfully and all
[01:45] <greezmunkey> markd25: hate to tell you this, but it is the issue, please ask in #ubuntu+1 - thanks.
[01:45] <psycho_oreos> cloudlevi, well whichever, but for convenience sake use that
[01:45] <Arch_NME> however how can I tell my current driver?
[01:45] <W43372> Alcor: It's just not working. I have the laptop set up for sharing. I've been doing it all this week at my friends house. But now that I'm home I can't get my Shares to mount on my server, and I cant pick up the public folder on my laptop from the server.
[01:45] <ZykoticK9> mudassar, mount cd1 start install - when it calls for cd2 umount cd1 and mount cd2 in it's place etc.
[01:45] <cloudlevi> psycho: And the purpose of this is...?
[01:45] <Arch_NME> is there a terminal command to make the system tell me my current video driver version?
[01:45] <mudassar> but comming back from installation is not possible as it will be in the shell
[01:45] <Sia--> Arch_NME, yes
[01:46] <psycho_oreos> cloudlevi, so that I can see what you're seeing and maybe able to assist you further without you venturing back to windows or pasting more than 3 lines into this channel and getting silenced by the bots for flooding
[01:46] <Arch_NME> Sia: could you tell me what it is ;)
[01:46] <cloudlevi> psycho: XD okay...
[01:46] <cloudlevi> psycho: http://pastebin.com/AMu28Se8
[01:46] <Sia--> Arch_NME, lspci | grep VGA
[01:46] <Sia--> and patebin the result
[01:47] <psycho_oreos> cloudlevi, 1131:1004 <--- that is the most important valuable piece of info you'll need fyi
[01:47] <cloudlevi> psycho: B5D7 is just my mouse. And what's that piece of info?
[01:47] <Alcor> W43372 I can get to the xp and mac printers but I cant get from there to the linux box...
[01:47] <Alcor> heh
[01:47] <ConcreteRose> 1+ 4 = 5
[01:48] <cloudlevi> psycho: More direct...what do I do with it?
[01:48] <Arch_NME> sia: is ther a way to make that say more info?
[01:48] <cloudlevi> nevermind? o-o
[01:48] <ZykoticK9> Arch_NME, actually lspci will only show the card manufacture/version not the driver version #  (even "lspci -vnvn" doesn't show driver version #)
[01:48] <Alcor> brb
[01:48] <Arch_NME> sia: it's only telling em the type of card and I want to know my driver version
[01:48] <psycho_oreos> cloudlevi, 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 pasted
[01:48] <goddard> Can some one direct me to a good link explaining how to create sub domains when using DynDNS and Apache2 on Ubuntu?
[01:48] <Sia--> Arch_NME, ok and search for the driver number in ubuntu wiki
[01:48] <W43372> Alcor: Not even that. I've got a bunch of stuff on the laptop that I want to send to the Windows box over the network, but Windows doesn't see my laptop, and my laptop won't mount the windows network.
[01:49] <Arch_NME> ZykoticK9: any idea how to see driver version?
[01:49] <ZykoticK9> Arch_NME, what card are you using?
[01:49] <cloudlevi> psycho: Okies. So do I just wait for an answer or filter through Google?
[01:49] <Arch_NME> quadro fx 570
[01:49] <psycho_oreos> cloudlevi, with that bit of info you can paste that directly into google query and see the support info/status on the device, etc
[01:49] <psycho_oreos> Arch_NME, depends on the chipset/driver
[01:49] <ZykoticK9> Arch_NME, that's ATI right?
[01:49] <Arch_NME> I just installed a new driver and I'm trying to see if it took
[01:49] <Arch_NME> nvidia
[01:49] <Alcor> W43372 wow!
[01:49] <datta> i am trying to install a tar.gz file (flock) into my system and following ubuntugeek's steps but cannot complete it
[01:50] <goddard> Can some one direct me to a good link explaining how to create sub domains when using DynDNS and Apache2 on Ubuntu?
[01:50] <cloudlevi> psycho: Mkay, so Im on the right tra- ...
[01:50] <psycho_oreos> cloudlevi, either way is up to you, if you want to learn, probably a good idea is to start filtering out yourself :) good practise
[01:50] <ZykoticK9> Arch_NME, did you install the nvidia driver from the repo or some 3rd party method?
[01:50] <Arch_NME> ahh
[01:50] <datta> ./configure command just says that there is no directory such that
[01:50] <psycho_oreos> Arch_NME, check under hardware drivers
[01:50] <Arch_NME> I downloaded directly from the nvidia site
[01:50] <Arch_NME> I see it now it did work
[01:50] <Arch_NME> I just went to system and selected display
[01:50] <Sia--> datta, install build-essential first
[01:50] <ZykoticK9> Arch_NME, nvidia-setting would certainly tell you
[01:50] <psycho_oreos> Arch_NME, you can go through nvidia x server settings, and see the version from there
[01:51] <Arch_NME> yes it did
[01:51] <datta> Sia-- it's installed to the newest version
[01:51] <greezmunkey> datta: Maybe the howto forgot to mention that you have to be inside of the directory B4 you issue that command???
[01:51] <W43372> Alcor: Just tried it, The workgroup that my windows machines are on shows up but I get 'failed to retrieve share list from server'
[01:51] <psycho_oreos> goddard, you might want to try #apache
[01:51] <Sia--> ok what you try to compiling?
[01:51] <Arch_NME> thanks so much for all your help everyone
[01:51] <SuPaJeRm> there been known issues of vnc sessions crashing?  my vnc session randomly crashes on me when i do stuff, and I'll have to reboot the system to get vnc back up and running.  --simple question is, what would the terminal command be to restart the vnc server thats default installed with ubuntu?
[01:51] <Arch_NME> successfully upgraded to version 195.36.15!!!!!!! woo hoo!!!!!!!!!!
[01:52] <datta> greezmunkey i will try that then
[01:52] <Sia--> Arch_NME, u r welcome
[01:52] <W43372> Alcor: My server doesn't see the public folder on the lin-lappy, and now that I looked it doesn't even see the shared folder from the windows box in the other room that's on the same work group.
[01:53] <Arch_NME> anyone know if it's possible to overclock my video card?
[01:53] <greezmunkey> W43372: install winbind, perhaps...
[01:53] <psycho_oreos> Arch_NME, that's offtopic here but there's a thing called nvclock
[01:53] <goddard> psycho_oreos thanks
[01:54] <psycho_oreos> goddard, no worries
[01:54] <Arch_NME> pycho: thanks
[01:54] <W43372> greezmunkey: Now that I look at it, it would appear to be a network problem as a whole. I just got home today and apparently the cable company put a new router in.
[01:55] <datta> yes i build the essentials in the directory and now trying ./configure and still not working
[01:55] <greezmunkey> W43372: nice for them to tell you :) You didn't leave your key under that mat did you???
[01:55] <datta> same bash output bash: ./configure: No such file or directory
[01:56] <ghizlane> hello everyone
[01:56] <hiexpo> !hello
[01:56] <W43372> greezmunkey no, just because I wasn't home doesn't mean that I'm not the only one living here.
[01:56] <greezmunkey> W43372: winbind is still a good thing!
[01:56] <ghizlane> please i need a help
[01:56] <greezmunkey> W43372: ;) I know...
[01:56] <hiexpo> !ask
[01:56] <ghizlane> i want to cinfigure snort
[01:56] <ghizlane> configure
[01:56] <dhanesh> W43372 my streamtuner is not working.when i click on any stream streamtuner is dissappearing.
[01:57] <W43372> greezmunkey: Windbind doesn't show up in the software center, where get?
[01:57] <bazhang> dhanesh, hi
[01:57] <W43372> dhanesh I don't even know what a steamtuner is...
[01:57] <ghizlane> but when i install the package snort-mysql they ask me to have a database
[01:57] <cloudlevi> psycho: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/268502
[01:57] <ghizlane> any one have an idea?
[01:57] <cloudlevi> psycho: =/ am I even CLOSE to being in the right place?
[01:57] <bazhang> dhanesh, see your PM
[01:58] <goddard> hey psycho_oreos if you go to that channel it doesn't allow you to even type a question
[01:58] <ZykoticK9> ghizlane, if you don't get an answer in this channel you might want to try in #snort
[01:59] <ghizlane> ok thanx a lot
[01:59] <greezmunkey> W43372: sudo apt-get install winbind
 thanx alot
[01:59] <dhanesh> hi
[01:59] <W43372> greezmunkey: Terminal just told me I already have it...
[02:00] <dhanesh> my streamtuner is not working. does anybody knows about it
[02:00] <haavaros> Can I add an fstab entry for an ssh share? I'm planning to use sshfs to mount the remote share at login if possible
[02:00] <Burzmali> Hello, I'm trying to get my line in to play to my speakers using pulse audio, any suggestions?
[02:00] <greezmunkey> W43372: good then! What network issue did you find, with the new cable modem, that is...
[02:01] <W43372> greezmunkey: I don't know, It's as if each of the 3 computers are blind to the shares of the other two.
[02:01] <nonameNN> is there any app like ustream producer for linux/ubuntu?
[02:01] <jamiejackson> how can i log out when the panel icon disappears (which it does all the time)?
[02:02] <Gadwil> jamiejackson, Go into terminal, then execute "sudo shutdown -r now"  (w/o quotes)
[02:02] <goddard> I need help creating a subdomain while running under ubuntu and dyndns.  Can anyone help with this?
[02:02] <nonameNN> jamiejackson: sudo pkill -u user
[02:02] <FOXBAGUNCEIRO> coehh
[02:02] <greezmunkey> W43372: it's off topic here, but you may need to restart each of your winboxen, also make sure they are set to use netbios over tcpip, I check all that first.
[02:02] <bazhang> !br | FOXBAGUNCEIRO
[02:02] <jamiejackson> gadwill, that shuts down, which is more extreme than log out, right?
[02:02] <ironfoot495> is there a way to restore the grub2 on 9.10?
[02:02] <Gadwil> jamiejackson, My command reboots computer.
[02:03] <Gadwil> jamiejackson, so follow noname's advice.
[02:03] <nonameNN> jamiejackson: sudo pkill -u user !!! this will show you gdm again
[02:03] <mc_> jamie, cntrl-Alt-Backspace will kill current GDM session and gives you gdm you can shutdown from there
[02:03] <jamiejackson> nonameNN: if that works, thank you. ;-)
[02:03] <ironfoot495> I can't get my xubuntu display???
[02:03] <mc_> if you don't want to mess with command prompt
[02:04] <W43372> greezmunkey: Everything was working before I left. The only thing that's been changed is that there's a new router in the house.
[02:04] <nonameNN> jamiejackson: hope it helps you
[02:04] <ZykoticK9> jamiejackson, actually ctrl+alt+backspace would not restart Xorg by default in Karmic (alt+sysrq+k would do that in karmic)
[02:04] <Gadwil> mc_, I think you need to physically activate that now, they turned it off by default with Jaunty I think.
[02:04] <mc_> oh ok... works for me so...
[02:05] <ZykoticK9> mc_, are you using 9.04?
[02:05] <mc_> but yeah using sysrq it's another idea
[02:05] <haavaros> I'm planning to install sshfs. Will adding the network shares to fstab work?
[02:05] <greezmunkey> W43372: they are winboxes though. Can you ping each of them?
[02:05] <nonameNN> come on guys! no one knows any app like ustream producer?? they have their app only for windows and mac
[02:05] <W43372> dunno, I'll try.
[02:05] <Gadwil> nonameNN, What does ustream producer do?
[02:06] <nonameNN> Gadwil: lets you mix camera video etc in their stream
[02:06] <Gadwil> nonameNN, In that case there most likely isn't an equivalent for Linux.  If it is for their stream specifically.
[02:06] <Gadwil> nonameNN, Try using WINE?
[02:07] <nonameNN> Gadwil: i dont think that will work... i dont thing wine has support for camera or flash...
[02:07] <Barnabas> nonameNN, try a search for the specific codec used for the video
[02:07] <Gadwil> nonameNN,  I think Winetricks will install Flash.  It would still be worth a shot.  Or Virtualize a Win machine.
[02:07] <tripelb> what's a kernel panic? This time when it froze I got flashing lights on my keyboard (for a short time, then they quit) 9.10 upgraded from 9.04 - AMD 32bit.
[02:08] <psusi> tripelb, the kernel crashed
[02:08]  * tripelb should be nick UbuntuFreezesAgain
[02:08] <nonameNN> thanks Barnabas Gadwil ill try
[02:08] <ZykoticK9> nonameNN, actually Jono Bacon (ubuntu community leader or similar title) uses ustream for his pod casts things - and even he uses windows for it
[02:08] <Gadwil> nonameNN, Winetricks does install Flash for you.
[02:09] <tripelb> What can I do? What's wrong? Ubuntu freezes, erratically not when first on. Memtest ok. This time when it froze I got flashing lights on my keyboard (for a short time, then they quit) 9.10 upgraded from 9.04 - AMD 32bit.
[02:09] <JULinuxUser> hello world
[02:09] <Barnabas> tripelb, overheating cpu?
[02:10] <psusi> tripelb, what were you doing at the time? and are there any errors in /var/log/kern.log?
[02:10] <tripelb> Barnabas, no way, the case is open.
[02:10] <JULinuxUser> I'm trying to compile and install the martian modem driver in Ubuntu 9.10 I keep getting this error: asm/page.h: No such file or directory
[02:10] <vanishing> does anyone know how to detect which format of a /dev/video* is using?
[02:10] <Barnabas> tripelb, thats not enough
[02:10] <Barnabas> by far

[02:10] <SuPaJeRm> terminal command be to restart the vnc server thats default installed with ubuntu?
[02:10] <tripelb> psusi, I can look. I was in xchat at the time.  Barnabas then how would I know if it was overheating.
[02:10] <Barnabas> check cooling paste between cpu cooler and cpu
[02:10] <Gadwil> tripelb, Try doing a fresh install of Karmic?
[02:11] <Gadwil> I had issues with 9.04, and just as karmic released upgraded, I had same issue and a clean install fixed me.
[02:11] <phil__> hi all. i'm new to this but i have a question. "my cpu shuts down unexpectedly everytime i play videos from youtube. Anyone knows why and how to fix that?
[02:11] <JULinuxUser> my problem is urgent. I'm in a remote area working on it for a limited amount of time
[02:12] <nonameNN> phil__: check flash plugin version
[02:12] <ZykoticK9> JULinuxUser, do you have a link to the driver you're trying to install?
[02:12] <Barnabas> JULinuxUser, you need remote access?
[02:12] <tripelb> Gadwil, I dont have enough space to do that. Actually I was transferring files at the time. (HOW MUCH free space do I need to have on a hard drive?)
[02:12] <JULinuxUser> Yes ZykoticK9 Here it is: http://martian.barrelsoutofbond.org/
[02:13] <JULinuxUser> Barnabas I'm in a remote area where even Sattelite internet is not available.
[02:13] <psusi> phil__, you mean it just suddenly powers down?
[02:13]  * ringer current user is ringer
[02:13] <Gadwil> tripelb, If you have 9.04 installed you should be able to install karmic on that drive, that is considering you have an external backup.  If not then perhaps a 1-2GB partition would be enough to install karmic from live CD.

[02:15] <histo> JULinuxUser: did you install build-essential?
[02:15] <JULinuxUser> Zykotick9 Yes
[02:15] <nonameNN> phil__: open synaptic and search for "flash"
[02:15] <JULinuxUser> histo how big is build-essential?

[02:15] <ZykoticK9> JULinuxUser, can you pastebin the output/error by chance?
[02:15] <JULinuxUser> Yes I will
[02:15] <histo> JULinuxUser: well you probably need it to compile the driver it has the kernel headers etc...
[02:15] <nonameNN> phil__: you could also reinstall it...
[02:15] <Barnabas> good idea
[02:16] <histo> JULinuxUser: I can tell you in a few minutes I ahve to install it on a box i'm trying to get a modem working
[02:16] <haavaros> Im going to use Unison to synch my Documents and Pictures folders across two laptops and a server, and use a backup program on the server to make incremental backups to another disk. But what is the best way to automatically open the connection between the laptop and server at laptop boot? (I hope I made myself clear)
[02:16] <histo> haavaros: you can mount the server folder locally
[02:16] <JULinuxUser> http://pastebin.com/T431NCuq
[02:16] <histo> haavaros: or use rsync to sync the two folders
[02:17] <JULinuxUser> Lets see if I can get build essential
[02:17] <JULinuxUser> It's installed already (build-essential)
[02:18] <JULinuxUser> I have tons of Lucent win modems lying around

[02:18] <KingFish> Question: When I format my USB thumb drive in Ubuntu (fat32) and copy mp3's onto it, it won't play on my car deck but when I do the same in Windows, it works.  Does anyone know the specific version of fat windows uses because it seems that there are more than one to choose from in the disk utility.
[02:18]  * ringer current user is ringer
[02:18] <histo> JULinuxUser: okay I have no idea why its failing to build perhaps someone else may have some insite. I'm assuming you'll need the headers for what ever kernel you have as well.
[02:18]  * ringer current user is ringer
[02:18] <bazhang> ringer, disable that
[02:18] <histo> JULinuxUser: linux-headers-`uname -r`
[02:18] <haavaros> histo:Thanks for your answer. I'd like to mount the server folder locally, automatically. WOuld that be possible? And if so, in which way?
[02:18] <JULinuxUser> ZykoticK9 did you get my pastebin link?

[02:18] <W43372> greezmunkey: I can't ping them, but I can VNC them...
[02:18] <Barnabas> KingFish, you need to figure out what formats the car player will accept
[02:19] <phil__> nonameNN: it says installed version is 10.0.45.2
[02:19] <Barnabas> should be listed in the manual
[02:19] <ZykoticK9> JULinuxUser, ya i'm looking at it right now.  Kinda wish you weren't running PAE kernel though
[02:19] <greezmunkey> W43372: windows firewall!
[02:19] <W43372> greezmunkey: For srs?
[02:20] <histo> JULinuxUser: does the box have more than 4gigs of ram?
[02:20] <greezmunkey> W43372: donno, maybe that's why you couldn't ping, that's all.
[02:20] <JULinuxUser> histo I think so it is new and had vista on it
[02:20] <histo> ZykoticK9: ^^^^ he may not need pae but default server isntall installs it.
[02:21] <JULinuxUser> 2 GB of ram
[02:21] <chetnick> My sound driver broke after hibernation. Reboot does not help, my sound is totally gone. Any ideas?
[02:21] <KingFish> Barnabas: good luck...it's a VW.  The standard format in Windows works so that should be fine
[02:22] <KingFish> Barnabas: I'm just not sure what format that is
[02:22] <histo> JULinuxUser: yeah no real need for pae
[02:22] <ZykoticK9> JULinuxUser, 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] <JULinuxUser> If anyone has any other bright ideas on how to get a Lucent modem installed in Linux that would be great.
[02:22] <phil__> psusi: yes it suddenly powers down
[02:23] <JULinuxUser> Ok Guys what does PAE mean? histo Zykotick9
[02:23] <Burzmali> JULinuxUser: Restricted drivers?
[02:23] <Gadwil> JULinuxUser, basically it allows a 32-bit system to use 4GB or more memory.
[02:23] <JULinuxUser> Gadwil and alternatives are?
[02:24] <Gadwil> JULinuxUser, use a 64bit OS.
[02:24] <Gadwil> PAE stands for Physical Address Extension
[02:24] <hiexpo> http://www.modemsite.com/56k/ltwin3.asp
[02:24] <JULinuxUser> Besides a 64 bit OS
[02:24] <JULinuxUser> would the i386 kernal work?
[02:24] <histo> JULinuxUser: 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] <Barnabas> KingFish, perhaps it will play wmv and not mp3 then?
[02:24] <Gadwil> JULinuxUser, PAE is the only way to use >4GB memory on a 32bit OS.  No way around it.
[02:25] <histo> JULinuxUser: but their free drivers are limited to 14k instead of 56k
[02:25] <JULinuxUser> thanks histo let me know your progress
[02:25] <Gadwil> i386 I believe is 32bit no PAE... not too sure though.
[02:25] <JULinuxUser> 14k would be better for me
[02:25] <psycho_oreos> !info linux-generic-pae
[02:25] <psycho_oreos> that's for 32bit with 4GB RAM :p
[02:26] <dancallo> Hello. Can someone answer a question for me?
[02:26] <Kazz|Away> !ask
[02:26] <hiexpo> !ask
[02:26] <Barnabas> dancallo, absolutely not
[02:26] <psusi> phil__, most likely overheating, or power problem
[02:26] <histo> JULinuxUser: build-essential requires 17.2MB
[02:26] <phil__> my cpu shuts down unexpectedly everytime i play videos from youtube. Anyone knows why and how to fix that?
[02:26] <Kazz|Away> Curious if someone can tell me an !EASY! way to use windows RDP to connect to ubuntu?
[02:26] <JULinuxUser> histo I have build-essential
[02:26] <phil__> psusi: so that cant be fixed?
[02:26] <nichos> hello, i'm setting up a new myth box, will using mythbuntu be a problem if I want to add ubuntu packages? Do they diverge greatly? thanks
[02:26] <psycho_oreos> phil__, hardware issue, overheating, not related to ubuntu
[02:26] <ZykoticK9> JULinuxUser, could you verify you have the kernel headers installed with the command "apt-cache policy linux-headers-$(uname -r)"
[02:26] <Gadwil> phil_ What is your CPU?
[02:27] <JULinuxUser> ZykoticK9 ??? how
[02:27] <histo> JULinuxUser: oh yeah I forgot I was just answering before what you asked
[02:27] <ZykoticK9> JULinuxUser, it should show a verion beside Installed
[02:27] <psusi> phil__, sure it can... figure out which it is and fix it ;)
[02:27] <dancallo> After installing UNR-9.10 on my netbook, I can't seem to get UbuntuOne to connect. I'm on the net so that's not the issue.
[02:27] <phil__> gadwil: dell inspiron 6000
[02:27] <ZykoticK9> JULinuxUser, in a terminal enter: apt-cache policy linux-headers-$(uname -r)
[02:27] <hiexpo> psusi, lopl
[02:27] <hiexpo> lol
[02:27] <ctmjr> nichos, no all ubuntu packages work in mythbuntu
[02:28] <nichos> ctmjr: should I just go w/ubuntu and add myth? Or does it really not matter?
[02:28] <Barnabas> dancallo, connect to what?
[02:28] <thefoot> i have a directory that's set chmod 777, is there a way to prevent users from changing the permissions but can still write/read the directory and files inside that dir?
[02:28] <hiexpo> !mythubuntu
[02:28] <Gadwil> Phil_, That is the OEM and model, not the CPU.  CPU is Intel or AMD.  Then a model for that.  Do you know what frequency your CPU runs at?
[02:28] <phil__> psusi: ok thanx
[02:28] <dancallo> When I right click on UbuntuOne and pick Connect, nothing happens
[02:28] <greezmunkey> W43372: Look here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/411878/
[02:28] <Kazz|Away> Curious if someone can tell me an !EASY! way to use windows RDP to connect to ubuntu?
[02:29] <JULinuxUser> ZykoticK9 2.6.31-20.58
[02:29] <ZykoticK9> JULinuxUser, that was beside Installed and not Candidate right?
[02:29] <phil__> Gadwil: no i don't know too much about computers
[02:29] <JULinuxUser> Right
[02:29] <ctmjr> nichos, i would try mythbuntu first and get a feel for mythtv it has become much easier to set up but you need to do a lot of homework to get it right
[02:29] <ZykoticK9> JULinuxUser, ok - that's fine you have the headers installed correctly then
[02:29] <Gadwil> phil_, OK let me look up your computer then...
[02:29] <mc_> Kazz an easy way is to install VNC client. why do you insist on RDP?
[02:30] <JULinuxUser> histo your using Conextant?
[02:30] <nichos> ctmjr: I'll go buy a 12 pack and get started;) thanks for your help
[02:30] <Kazz|Away> running ubuntu in a VM test environemnt
[02:30] <SuPaJeRm> Kazz|Away: have you checked the ubuntu forums?  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=335548
[02:30] <phil__> Gadwil: so i'm guessing my problem is overheating then
[02:30] <ZykoticK9> dancallo, you might want to try asking in the #ubuntuone channel
[02:30] <Barnabas> dancallo, UbuntuOne is outside what I have worked with - am sorry
[02:30] <dancallo> Thanks, I appreciate your help anyway.
[02:30] <histo> JULinuxUser: yeah but like I said their free drivers lower the speed. The paid drivers allow full speed
[02:30] <Kazz|Away> i found some work around with installing VNC in the bubuntu machine and hacking it up but the posts are from 2006
[02:30] <JULinuxUser> Where do I get the drivers histo?
[02:30] <hiexpo> phil__, get a compressor and blow thru all the vents
[02:30] <mc_> so install VNC client on windows, there are some you don't even have to install just execute
[02:30] <Gadwil> phil_, Seems like it is most likely that.
[02:30] <Viking667> hi there.
[02:30] <mc_> I think
[02:31] <thefoot> Does anyone know?
[02:31] <histo> JULinuxUser: linuxant.com
[02:31] <hiexpo> phil__, it works i do it all the time
[02:31] <Viking667> I've got two sound cards in my computer, and every so often, they keep swapping over between card0 and card1. How do I lock one of them down to being card0?
[02:31] <phil__> hiexpo: thanks
[02:31] <histo> JULinuxUser: you have to know what type of modem you have or download their install script will help you atleast identify the chipset
[02:31] <Kazz|Away> so the short answer then is ... no there is not an easy way to enable RDP in ubunut
[02:31] <Viking667> linuxant.com used to charge for their HCF modem drivers, I think that may still be in place.
[02:31] <Kazz|Away> ubuntu*
[02:32] <phil__> hiexpo: i'll try that
[02:32] <Viking667> Was a cheap cost, $15, but not one I wanted to pay.
[02:32] <phil__> Gadwil: ok thanks though
[02:32] <hiexpo> phil__, yep when i get a overheating laptop thats the first thing i do and 99 percent  of the time its fixed genie in a can lol
[02:32] <mc_> oh, I don't know, but I think MS would not let it happen
[02:32] <Barnabas> Viking667, what about just simple x?
[02:32] <JULinuxUser> ok histo I have two Conextant modems in front of me
[02:33] <hiexpo> phil__, what kinda lappy is it
[02:33] <Kazz|Away> i can go ubuntu to windows but not vice versa with the windows built in RDP :<
[02:33] <Viking667> Barnabas: sorry?
[02:33] <histo> JULinuxUser: do you have an external modem laying around?
[02:33] <Kazz|Away> sux
[02:33] <histo> Kazz|Away: yes you can
[02:33] <Barnabas> linux pc query to another linux / unix / bsd?
[02:33] <Kazz|Away> not with the windows built in RDP
[02:33] <JULinuxUser> histo No and that won't work. This is only USB (Y@U WILL USE USB @@)

[02:36] <Barnabas> Kazz|Away, good luck
[02:36] <Kazz|Away> woudl prefer to install something on the ubuntu machine than to install vnc on the windows machine
[02:36] <mOrO^> Vikings : How would I do that?
[02:36] <phil__> hiexpo: its a dell inspiron 6000
[02:36] <XuMuK> Barnabas, xD
[02:36] <hiexpo> mOrO^, one sec ok
[02:36] <Viking667> mOrO^: need a web browser pointed at "http://localhost:631/"
[02:36] <mOrO^> hiexpo, ok.
[02:36] <Gadwil> m0r0^, Did you use the HPLIP Toolbox to set up your printer?
[02:36] <hiexpo> phil__, yep blow it out does it take awhile before you can reboot ?
[02:37] <histo> JULinuxUser: if you find an external they just work no drivers needed
[02:37] <mOrO^> Gadwil, Yes.
[02:37] <JULinuxUser> histo I know that.
[02:37] <mOrO^> Viking667, Im on that page
[02:37] <Barnabas> XuMuK, if I where to query a windows box from a unix client I would not start with X either
[02:37] <histo> JULinuxUser: if you have usb others have tried usb > serial adapters and had sucess
[02:37] <JULinuxUser> histo this one is a CONEXANT but where is the model?
[02:37] <hiexpo> mOrO^,  - do u have hplip toolbox installed
[02:38] <Gadwil> That is very odd then.
[02:38] <mOrO^> hiexpo, yes
[02:38] <Viking667> mOrO^: check out what the status on your printer says (that's on the page for your printers).. do that after you answer the HPLIP question.
[02:38] <JULinuxUser> histo NOOOOOOOOOO It's PCI. They are all PCI
[02:38] <ZykoticK9> Kazz|Away, although there are several RDP Clients in the ubuntu repo I don't see any servers :(

[02:38] <Kazz|Away> same zykotic :/
[02:39] <jhamlin_> hey folks, I can't get fluxbox to maximize windows properly.  There is always a little gap at some of the edges of the screen.  Yes I have set slit, tabs, and toolbar to "maxOver".  What could be the problem??
[02:39] <Kazz|Away> this xrdp looks promising though
[02:39] <Burzmali> Anyone know about pumping the input from a microphone to the speakers?
[02:39] <Viking667> Burzmali: ugh. feedback city.
[02:39] <ZykoticK9> Kazz|Away, i know you can connect to PUEL VirtualBox machines using RDP (if that helps at all)
[02:40] <JULinuxUser> I can't find a link to the free drivers histo
[02:40] <mc_> Kazz check here
[02:40] <mc_> http://www.tightvnc.com/download.html
[02:40] <Viking667> JULinuxUser: ahh. That's probably because they're long shot.
[02:40] <Dr_Willis> jhamlin_:  i recall that being a firefox setting. for somne sort of clearance.
[02:40] <Dr_Willis> jhamlin_:  err i mean fluxbox setting. :)
[02:40] <mc_> download vncviewer no need to install it, just run
[02:40] <Viking667> and as it was, the free drivers were limited to 14k4 or something absurdly slow.
[02:40] <Burzmali> Viking667: Not really a mic on the input side, so no feedback
[02:41] <Kazz|Away> ZykoticK9 ... PUEL ??? new to UBUNTU/linux. first day with it in a VM
[02:41] <Viking667> Come to think of it, I've never heard of PUEL either. What is it?
[02:41] <ZykoticK9> Kazz|Away, that's the NON-Opensource version (the one direct from Oracle, not from Ubuntu repo)
[02:42] <Kazz|Away> ah
[02:42] <JULinuxUser> histo please can I has drivers? I need link to free drivers please. They don't advertise it on the web page.

[02:43] <JULinuxUser> ok thought you were asleep
[02:44] <SuPaJeRm> I have Gnome Remote Desktop 2.28.1 installed, and it occassionaly crashes when im in a session and i can't pull it up on tightVNC anymore.  Anyone know the command to restart it from a ssh session?
[02:44] <greezmunkey> Viking667: I'm still trying to figure out why you have two installed...
[02:44] <Barnabas> Viking667, disable the least wanted one?
[02:44] <Kazz|Away> :/
[02:45] <Viking667> I've got sound from multiple machines routed into the computer, that's not an option.
[02:45] <Viking667> s/machines/sources/
[02:45] <Barnabas> ok
[02:45] <jhamlin_> Dr_Willis: hmmmm I don't see anything about "clearance" in any of the settings files or man page.  Any further thoughts?
[02:45] <Kazz|Away> wanted to set this (UBUNT-VM) up to run as a service and be able to RD to it
[02:45] <mOrO^> Viking667, Looks like I can print using the command line command lpr filename...but I cant print from the application
[02:45] <Viking667> mOrO^: any way of setting printing preferences?
[02:46] <Kazz|Away> looks like VNC will be the sijmplest way
[02:46] <Viking667> Say, to call up xlpr or something?
[02:46] <mOrO^> Viking667, WOAH...it is printing what looks like a bunch of jibberish related to the programs spreadsheet info. :)
[02:46] <SpaceCowboy40404> hello

[02:47] <mOrO^> Viking667, While it is printing the icon appears and I have a Settings option.
[02:48] <greezmunkey> Kazz|Away: Here's a tip I got here on using vnc, put {ip address}:0 in the connection window!
[02:48] <Barnabas> SpaceCowboy40404, what is the problem
[02:48] <KingFish> Barnabas: It works if I do the exact same thing in Windows.  I've played countless mp3's on it before from my windows box, it just doens't seem to work in Ubuntu.
[02:48] <Castbound> hello guys anyone experienced any issues with sound today, after an upgrade my sound stopped working
[02:49] <Dr_Willis> jhamlin_:  i recall a 1 pixle clearance some where in fbox configs when i last used it ages ago. I thought they had a gui contorl-panel tool.
[02:49] <SpaceCowboy40404> i used the synaptic package manager and found my the package i needed for my card and d/l it and installed it but my card isnt showing up in the network manager
[02:49] <Dr_Willis> jhamlin_:  i was thinking the reason for it was so you could still access the root window below. but  Its been at least a year+ since i last used fluxbox for any time
[02:50] <SpaceCowboy40404> the ubuntu help site says my card is supported but for some reason it wont show up in the network manager?
[02:51] <calum> hi all
[02:51] <Barnabas> SpaceCowboy40404, did you reboot?
[02:51] <SpaceCowboy40404> yepper
[02:51] <Barnabas> then try to pastebin the output from a boot
[02:51] <ZykoticK9> SpaceCowboy40404, do you see the card in System / Admin / Hardware Drivers?  Can you activate it?  Have you plugged in ethernet and done all updates?
[02:51] <Barnabas> probably some info in the dmesg startup
[02:52] <Barnabas> KingFish, so a mp3 from windows will play in the car but not from linux?
[02:52] <SpaceCowboy40404> "System / Admin / Hardware Drivers?  Can you activate it?" BINGO
[02:53] <magger> good evening gentlemens
[02:53] <magger> i have some problem installing ubuntu here
[02:53] <SpaceCowboy40404> THANKS A MILLION
[02:53] <greezmunkey> What command can I use to check my dns cache?
[02:53] <magger> and the website refer me to here
[02:53] <SpaceCowboy40404> thanks for the help fellas
[02:53] <jhamlin_> Dr_Willis: yeah it sounds like there is a 1 pixel clearance setting somewhere but I've been scouring the documentation and google for a week and haven't figured out how to get rid of it.  It's totally screws up the way apps that are supposed to be fullscreen look...
[02:54] <Dr_Willis> jhamlin_:  i recall it being a feature. but thats about all i rember. there is a #fluxbox channel and forum and homepage. that would be the places to look.
[02:54] <Castbound> hello guys anyone experienced any issues with sound today, after an upgrade my sound stopped working -- this are my specs http://pastebin.com/mKSVeh4F
[02:54] <KingFish> Barnabas: The deck in my car allows me to plug a usb flash drive right into the front of it.  I use my USB flash drives for everything including running live systems of 10.04 so I can check for problems and such.  Anyhow, when I reformat it to fat in Ubuntu and copy mp3's onto it, it won't read in my car.  If I do the same in Windows, it works fine.
[02:55] <SpaceCowboy40404> ok now in the hardware drivers window it says this is activated and currently in use.... still nothing showing up in network manager for wireless though? do i need to restart again?
[02:55] <KingFish> Barnabas: Now here is the problem.  There are several fat32 filesystems that you can choose from in the disk utility.  I'm wondering if anyone knows which one windows uses.
[02:55] <magger> so lets see, when i try to install V8.04  it will not go to the grafic interface and will tell me to type help for help, however i could get to the instalation choosing the ''no error'' mode but then it froze and i had to shut the computer off
[02:55] <Barnabas> KingFish, try to select the lowest possible file system for the usb drive
[02:56] <KingFish> Barnabas: lowest?  I don't get what you mean.
[02:56] <magger> then i got V 9.10 and the screen go flashing like crazy once i start the installation
[02:56] <carthagian> salut
[02:56] <Dr_Willis> jhamlin_:  could also be a bug. I got a google hit about it on a bug fix page -> http://old.fluxbox.org/changelog.php
[02:56] <magger> and i can barely type sudo shutdown between 2 fliker
[02:56] <Barnabas> just a plain fat 32 file system
[02:56] <W43372> I've had problems all day because of this stupid router, I just want things to work the way they're supposed to :(
[02:56] <PyroPhelia> how long does xfs check take to run?
[02:57] <Barnabas> and there really is no need to nuke that every time you write to the device
[02:57] <PyroPhelia> 'normally'
[02:57] <Barnabas> just keep it
[02:57] <Barnabas> linux will read/write to a fat device made in ms windows
[02:57] <ZykoticK9> SpaceCowboy40404, try right clicking on the network icon in the panel - can you enable wireless?
[02:57] <Castbound> after an upgrade my sound stopped working -- this are my specs http://pastebin.com/mKSVeh4F  can anybody help?
[02:57] <SpaceCowboy40404> ok now in the hardware drivers window it says this driver is activated and currently in use.... still nothing showing up in network manager for wireless though?
[02:57] <greezmunkey> SpaceCowboy40404: In a terminal type iwlist - and see what it tells you.
[02:57] <wick94> wht the ubuntu 10.04 support channel?
[02:57] <ardchoille> !lucid
[02:58] <wick94> whts the ubuntu 10.04 support channel?
[02:58] <ZykoticK9> wick94, #ubuntu+1
[02:58] <SpaceCowboy40404> yes ther eis a little box there and it has a check in it for wireless
[02:58] <KingFish> Barnabas: when you plug a USB flash drive in it automounts and an icon appears on the desktop.  If I right click on that and click format, the choice there is "compatable with all systems (fat)"
[02:58] <Jeanvaljean> hello,I want to ask how a web crawler do with a _dopostback javascripts?
[02:58] <ZykoticK9> SpaceCowboy40404, then try greezmunkey's suggestion then
[02:58] <wick94> thnx
[02:58] <Castbound> after an upgrade my sound stopped working -- this are my specs http://pastebin.com/mKSVeh4F  can anybody help?
[02:59] <Jeanvaljean> the javascripts really suck

[02:59] <Jeanvaljean> or anyone can help me to get into the site www.e696.com/data?
[02:59] <greezmunkey> SpaceCowboy40404: sorry cart a bit ahead of the horse. In a terminal type iwconfig first, see if it reports back an interface like wlan0, or ra0, or similar
[02:59] <KingFish> Barnabas: if I choose to do that in the disk utility, I have a lot more choices: By default when you click on fat it chooses W95 FAT32 (LBA) (OxOc)
[02:59] <Barnabas> where you point to your device
[02:59] <Barnabas> will nuke all data on it
[02:59] <Barnabas> be aware

[03:18] <Capt_Blackwood> can somebody help me with this?
[03:18] <mcurran> SpaceCowboy40404 You should download the proprietary driver instead of using NDiswrapper, then you'll have injection, less problems, and much more.

[03:19] <Barnabas> KingFish, out of ideas then

[03:21] <h00k> tripelb: or sudo apt-get install xchat

[03:23] <tripelb> Oh I thought I was using xchat2 before. so simple h00k

[03:24] <tripelb> h00k, frankly I have never had xynaptic actually work to install anything.
[03:24] <Dr_Willis> so theres 3 xchats now? Xchat, xchat gnome, and xchat2 ?

[03:25] <Dr_Willis> tripelb:  theres several  ports of xchat for windows. but Id not heard of a new 'xchat 2' yet.
[03:26] <hiexpo> Dr_Willis, xchat 3 is still the best one i think more workable anyways
[03:26] <maginot> today, hope it helps. have to go for a while.
[03:26] <Dr_Willis> a dedicated irc client is proberly best for irc over a lot of these all in one IM clients.

[03:29] <today> thanks again miginot
[03:29] <today> see you late maginot
[03:30] <lava1> how to see if vga driver is installed on my dell 620
[03:30] <Dr_Willis> vga is a video standard. there are 'vga' drivers allready installed..  if you want specific drivers for your dell's Chipset. then you need to figure out what chipset its using.
[03:31] <today> i config my smb.conf like as http://paste.ubuntu.com/411896/ but i dont acess other PC at LAN , can you see for me ?
[03:31] <lava1> so the drivers are not OS specific ?
[03:31] <TerryUbu1004> Barnabas: well...I tried everything...I have no idea.
[03:31] <Dr_Willis> lava1:  the drivers are OS specific and CHIPSET specific.
[03:31] <SpaceCowboy40404> greezmunkey how do i tell what version of card i have?
[03:31] <greezmunkey> SpaceCowboy40404: you could try: sudo lshw
[03:31] <TerryUbu1004> Maybe VW and Windows share bank accounts
[03:31] <lava1> how do i find that
[03:33] <lava1> Dr_Willis, How do I find what hardware(chipset) i have and where i can find the software to install
[03:33] <Dr_Willis> lava1:  you can start with -->  lspci | grep VGA
[03:33] <sloopy> today, is /media/share writeable by everyone?
[03:33] <Dr_Willis> lava1:  or look in the docs/sticketrs on your machine.
[03:33] <TerryUbu1004> what is the best IRC client on Ubuntu?
[03:33] <today> uhm, i still dont know
[03:33] <Dr_Willis> TerryUbu1004:  it depends on your needs.
[03:33] <wildbat> hi, my ubuntu don't have sound, how do i correct it ?
[03:33] <SpaceCowboy40404> is this it: driverversion=5.10.91.
[03:33] <SpaceCowboy40404> or is that just the drivers being used?
[03:33] <hiexpo> got booted :(
[03:34] <lava1> this is the output
[03:34] <lava1> lspci | grep VGA
[03:34] <sloopy> today, can you paste bin 'ls -la /media' ?
[03:34] <today> if share folder dont set it, how do that sloopy?
[03:34] <ardchoille> !best| TerryUbu1004

[03:37] <Dr_Willis> lava1:  use the video res tool perhaps in the menus. Or it could be you need to hit the special monitor/video keys on the laptop.
[03:38] <magger> yeah like what
[03:38] <ardchoille> !ot
[03:38] <Purpley> What command can I run to monitor my ssh server? like view who is connecting and who is trying

[03:38] <greezmunkey> SpaceCowboy40404: no, that's a wired nick. your wireless int is at the top.
[03:38] <Dr_Willis> tripelbier:  very good scripting support for several languages,  updating feature for the scripts. 'intigellent' filterering of messages/text/people,   vert/horiz splitting of windows.
[03:38] <lava1> Dr_Willis: can you please be bit clear
[03:39] <Dr_Willis> lava1:  look at your laptops keys.. theres Speical FN keys that turn on/off the various external video devices.

[03:39] <enjoytheday> how to do os patch update on ubuntu?
[03:40] <Purpley> Okay whats the difference between ssh and sshd
[03:40] <Dr_Willis> Purpley:  one is client, other is server.
[03:40] <lava1> Dr_Willis: sure will try and come back if it si not working, Thanks for your prompt responce
[03:40] <brah-> sshd is a daemon(server)
[03:40] <Purpley> Dr_Willis: Which is which
[03:40] <Dr_Willis> Purpley:  same as a web browser and apache.
[03:40] <brah-> [10:40:55pm] <brah-> sshd is a daemon(server)
[03:40] <Dr_Willis> d = demon
[03:41] <Dr_Willis> !ssh | Purpley
[03:41] <Purpley> Dr_Willis: Elaborate please im a newbie with ssh
[03:41] <hiexpo> Dr_Willis,  - omg u got a doozie
[03:41] <Dr_Willis> Purpley:  time to read some docs on it - is the best suggestion.
[03:41] <brah-> you ignore me, I ignore you noob
[03:41] <bazhang> brah-, that language is not welcome here
[03:41] <Dr_Willis> ssh is a tool that has whole books written about it.
[03:41] <hiexpo> !language
[03:41] <brah-> bazhang your nerd rage is offtopic
[03:41] <tripelbier> Purpley, docs are good. Putty gives you a telnet shell from windows
[03:42] <Purpley> tripelbier: Im aware
[03:42] <enjoytheday> is there a command for os  patch update on ubuntu?
[03:42] <ardchoille> brah-: Please be respectful of others
[03:42] <bazhang> enjoytheday, no why would you want to
[03:42] <Purpley> tripelbier: Im actually accessing my server via PuTTY right now :)
[03:42] <brah-> ardchoille, sure, aslong as they be respectful to me.
[03:42] <tripelbier> Purpley, then what do you want elaborating on?  Just choose ssh
[03:42] <tripelbier> Purpley, kudos and congrats.
[03:42] <greezmunkey> SpaceCowboy40404: type: "lspci -v | less" (minus quotes) see what it gives you.
[03:43] <magger> does the memory test of ubuntu run in loop for every or it will end at some point.. ive been running it for 1 hour
[03:43] <Dr_Willis> enjoytheday:  the normal package manager and package manager commands update the os as needed
[03:43] <Purpley> tripelbier: tripelbier I want to change the default port on which my ssh server is on by default
[03:43] <enjoytheday> I'm familiar with sun solaris os patch update, but my boss asked me to do patch update on ubuntu
[03:43] <Purpley> and im not sure which cfg to edit either ssh or sshd
[03:43] <enjoytheday> apt-get install update  ???
[03:43] <bazhang> enjoytheday, simply apt-get update and apt-get upgrade
[03:44] <Dr_Willis> Purpley:  ssh is  for the client.. so you dont want that.. you need to read/understand the confighuration file for the ssh server.
[03:44] <Capt_Blackwood> can somebody help me with this http://imagebin.org/92453 <<< ?
[03:44] <bazhang> Capt_Blackwood, lucid?
[03:44] <Purpley> Dr_Willis: Alright thanks
[03:44] <Capt_Blackwood> correct bazhang
[03:44] <Capt_Blackwood> lucid...
[03:44] <sloopy> today, have you tried a minmal smb.conf to check to see everything is working?
[03:44] <SpaceCowboy40404> greezmunkey gave me this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/411903/
[03:44] <bazhang> Capt_Blackwood, #ubuntu+1 please
[03:44] <hiexpo> please people do not be disrespectful to others here that are helping you this is a  non paying job people tale time out of there lifes to help others  here have a little respect //// OR JUST KICK ROCKS AND FIGURE IT OUT ON YOUR OWN
[03:44] <Dr_Willis> enjoytheday:  no idea what you mean by 'patch update'  -> a simple 'sudo apt-get update' and 'sudo apt-get upgrade' updates  the whole system.
[03:44] <LinuxLuis> hello channel
[03:45] <Dr_Willis> enjoytheday:  the gui package manager tools also handle this functionality
[03:45] <today> everything not work sloopy
[03:45] <SpaceCowboy40404> greezmunkey is that "(rev 01)" the version?
[03:45] <today> i can do that ( even click Network Icon)
[03:45] <enjoytheday> thank you guys, what is the diffrence between update and upgrade?
[03:45] <magger> hiexpo: i been respectfull and yet not a piece of an answer
[03:45] <greezmunkey> SpaceCowboy40404: exactly!
[03:45] <SpaceCowboy40404> cool
[03:46] <magger> maybe if i asked for an url or somthing that can be naswered by a script
[03:46] <bazhang> enjoytheday, one reads the sources list (of software), the second installs any upgraded versions
[03:46] <magger> what is the url for ubuntu mainsite pls
[03:46] <ardchoille> enjoytheday: update updates your sources, upgrade updates your software
[03:46] <Dr_Willis> !ubuntu | magger
[03:46] <bazhang> magger, ubuntu.com
[03:46] <magger> there u go
[03:46] <magger> if i ask for something that is obvious i get an answer
[03:46] <bazhang> magger, be patient then
[03:46] <Dr_Willis> magger:  and your point is?
[03:46] <gowerdhan>  Can somebody help connecting PPTP VPN
[03:46] <hiexpo> magger, sometimes the answer is not easy patience is the best virtue
[03:47] <LinuxLuis> http://www.ubuntu.com/
[03:47] <magger> i wanted to find out if i was on ignore to every one or something
[03:47] <magger> but yeah
[03:47] <sloopy> today, did you try a minimal smb.conf like this to see if it worked?  http://samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/install.html#smbconfminimal
[03:47] <magger> ima have to put win on that computer
[03:47] <today> let me see sloopy
[03:48] <underdev> hi, i made a ubuntu live usb disk, but my bios can't find it.  I once had a CD that allowed me to boot from a usb, and i can't remember what it was.  Is anyone familiar with something like that?
[03:48] <underdev> I have googled extensively
[03:48] <bazhang> underdev, using unetbootin ?
[03:49] <SpaceCowboy40404> greezmunkey I'm hung up on step 6.... the Windows Wireless Drivers isn't showing up in System->Administration->....
[03:49] <underdev> i used the System->Admin-> USB Startup disk creator
[03:49] <today> i cant click Network icon ( with popup: could not display "network:///" nautilus cannot handle "network" location
[03:49] <today> sloopy i cant click Network icon ( with popup: could not display "network:///" nautilus cannot handle "network" location
[03:49] <Cornwall> underdev: Do you know if your BIOS supports USB booting?
[03:50] <magger> does 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 hour
[03:50] <sloopy> today, i dont know, i dont use nautilus
[03:50] <magger> many*
[03:50] <underdev> its supposed to i tried USB-HD USB-ZIP USB-CDROM and USB-HD, none found it
[03:50] <Dr_Willis> magger:  depending on how tough you want to be . you could let it run for several days.
[03:50] <today> allright, im using Karmic sloopy
[03:50] <magger> so it will never end ?
[03:50] <greezmunkey> SpaceCowboy40404: did you install ndisgtk yet?
[03:51] <magger> 0 error after 1 hour mean i can stop it ?
[03:51] <bazhang> underdev, I've not had good luck with usb-creator ; you may also wish to give unetbootin a try
[03:51] <Dr_Willis> magger:  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/hrs
[03:51] <underdev> But 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 it
[03:51] <SpaceCowboy40404> greezmunkey 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] <today> sloopy: may be make smb.conf sith SWAT? what's root password do you know?
[03:52] <Dr_Willis> underdev:  those cd's like that - that i hae seen.. are often very kernel/disrto specific.
[03:52] <underdev> bazhang: ty, i will probably try that
[03:52] <magger> i cant get ubuntu to install so i jsut tried the disc and memory test form the installer to narrow the problems
[03:52] <sloopy> today, root password is undefined...
[03:52] <magger> look like memory is good
[03:52] <underdev> Dr_Willis: thank you.  It worked with ubuntu... okay, i guess it's not really popular.. darm my poor memory...
[03:53] <chd> hi 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] <greezmunkey> SpaceCowboy40404: 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] <SpaceCowboy40404> lemme check synaptic then
[03:53] <today> with 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 sloopy
[03:54] <magger> since no one could find a way to help me out can some one refer me to an installation problem website or something
[03:54] <bazhang> chd, quicktime trailers from apple? .mov files? something else?
[03:54] <sloopy> today, need to put that minimal smb.conf in to try it, and make sure everything is working...
[03:54] <chd> yes bazhang quicktime trailers from apple.com
[03:54] <today> oh, i already put that minimal smb.conf which you say, but nothing effect sloopy ^^
[03:55] <SpaceCowboy40404> greezmunkey 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] <bazhang> chd, you have to wget them, apple blocks linux
[03:55] <greezmunkey> Dr_Willis: do you know how to use apt? to verify that a package is installed?
[03:55] <sloopy> today, you cant access the shares from other machines?
[03:55] <Dr_Willis> greezmunkey:  just try to install it again?  it will say its the latest. if its allready installed.
[03:56] <SpaceCowboy40404> greezmunkey they are installed.. if i right click on them it asks me if i want to UNinstall them
[03:56] <magger> my screen start to blink when i attemps to install ubuntu 9.10 from cd
[03:57] <bazhang> magger, tried the alternate cd yet?
[03:57] <magger> interesting
[03:57] <magger> what is it ?
[03:57] <greezmunkey> Dr_Willis: SpaceCowboy40404 used synaptic to install ndisgtk. I would think that it would be active upon install??
[03:57] <underdev> magger- i've had to use the alternate cd on a couple machines
[03:57] <today> sloopy , unfortunaly, i cant
[03:57] <bigtom21485> how do i monitor cpu temp with ubuntu?
[03:57] <bazhang> magger,  a text only installer that uses ncurses (ie not livecd just install cd)
[03:57] <today> i try to type " smb://pcname " but not now
[03:58] <chd> bazhang, sudo wget --output-document=/etc/apt/sources.list.d/medibuntu.list http://www.medibuntu.org/sources.list.d/$(lsb_release -cs).list?
[03:58] <magger> alright
[03:58] <magger> and where will i get that ?
[03:58] <bazhang> magger, sometimes needs to be use when livecd fails
[03:58] <bastid_raZor> bigtom21485: you can see it with acpi -V  or use something like conky
[03:58] <Dr_Willis> bigtom21485:  theres various tools to show the temps  in some sort of gadget/tool/window on the desktop. or the command line lm-sensors tools
[03:58] <underdev> magger same place as the other 9.10 isos
[03:58] <bazhang> magger, ubuntu.com homepage, or ubuntu torrents
[03:59] <magger> ok
[03:59] <magger> thx
[03:59] <greezmunkey> SpaceCowboy40404: I have to go for a few minutes, brb
[03:59] <SpaceCowboy40404> ok
[03:59] <sloopy> today, did you restart samba after you changed the smb.conf?
[03:59] <SpaceCowboy40404> gonna restart greezmunkey
[03:59] <omahasteak> hello
[03:59] <bazhang> chd, no need for medibuntu with apple trailers just be sure the ubuntu-restricted-extras are installed and wget the files from apple site
[03:59] <Gent> anyone else here have major slowness using nvidia's drivers with compiz at high res
[03:59] <sultan> I tried to install 10.04 LTS Beta on Virtualbox (Vista host) but after reboot it didn't work for me, so I uninstall and installed 9.10 now
[03:59] <Gent> ?
[04:00] <today> that sure sloopy
[04:00] <bazhang> sultan, lucid in #ubuntu+1 please
[04:00] <Gent> I have dual 1600x1200's at work with AMD and I have no such issues
[04:00] <sloopy> today, ?
[04:00] <Gent> this thing crawls at like 19xx by whatever
[04:00] <sultan> I am new to this chat, so can you explain what you mean by that
[04:00] <magger> look like i can only fint the live cd thing on the homepage
[04:01] <today> i make minimum smb.conf ( which you show me) then restart samba, but nothing change ^^ sloopy
[04:01] <ardchoille> sultan: /join #ubuntu+1
[04:01] <omahasteak> i have an issue where my computer freezes, both when hibernating and also just for no reason surfing the web.. i use a optiplex sx260
[04:01] <bazhang> sultan, you wish for support with virtualbox? karmic? lucid? please specify
[04:01] <sloopy> today, other machines still cant see the shares?
[04:01] <lava1> Dr_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 tv
[04:01] <bazhang> sultan, lucid is 10.04 in #ubuntu+1 karmic is 9.10 here in #ubuntu
[04:01] <sloopy> today, what OS is on the machines you are trying to access it with?
[04:02] <today> uhm i thing as Know
[04:02] <Iklos> Excuse me #ubuntu, but would anyone know why the login screen (the GDM as I believe it is called) not appear when the system starts up?  I literally cannot login...
[04:02] <Iklos> *does not
[04:02] <today> share between Karmic ( my os) and other XP sloopy
[04:02] <Gent> Iklos, is this on Lucid?
[04:02] <Iklos> no
[04:02] <omahasteak> Iklos: turn your monitor on.
[04:02] <omahasteak> Iklos: jk
[04:02] <Iklos> lol
[04:02] <Iklos> I do appreciate the lightheartedness
[04:02] <MoLE_> Iklos, what do you get presented with?
[04:03] <Gent> I had that problem on lucid which I just installed, I think it's cause of mode switching on the bootup
[04:03] <Iklos> I must confess I think I caused it
[04:03] <Dr_Willis> today:  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] <sultan> lucid beta, however I installed karmic now and I am using it right now
[04:03] <sloopy> today, does the XP machine show anything in the network neighborhood?
[04:03] <today> i try to testparm here http://paste.ubuntu.com/411910/
[04:03] <underdev> magger: did you find it?
[04:03] <omahasteak> Ikos: what do you think you did to cause it.
[04:03] <Iklos> I tried to get the easter egg of "free the fish"
[04:03] <Iklos> so i alt + f2 and got free the fish
[04:03] <Iklos> then said fish got annoying
[04:03] <today> i thing samba is good idea Dr_Willis( is that right?)
[04:03] <Iklos> not knowing a solution, I googlefuud one
[04:03] <Dr_Willis> today:  it totally depends on your exact needs.
[04:04] <zamabe> hallo, 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] <today> offcourse( with MSHOME)
[04:04] <Dr_Willis> today:  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] <Iklos> a solution was given, something to the effect of "gnome panel --replace" or something similar
[04:04] <Dr_Willis> today:  samba can also be a pain to trouble shoot.
[04:04] <Iklos> I would have thought this would restart the gnome panel
[04:04] <lava1> Dr_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 tv
[04:04] <Dr_Willis> today:  as i said. if you just want a few files back and forth and dont need  a perment 'share' you could use winscp
[04:05] <SpaceCowboy40404> greezmonkey I restarted and Windows Wireless Drivers still isn't showing up under: System->Administration->
[04:05] <Iklos> my current screen presents the lovely brown backdrop, but no login box or bottom panel
[04:05] <sloopy> today, and your machine doesnt show up on the XP machine with minimal smb.conf?
[04:05] <Iklos> I had previously tried loging in under safe mode, which, through ncurses i got in fine
[04:06] <omahasteak> Will a partition of XP cause a ubuntu box to crash for no reason?
[04:06] <today> i dont ask to other pc sloopy, i want to complete my samba  problem now
[04:06] <Iklos> unfortuntaely im not a CLI master and tend to like my x11 apps
[04:06] <Dr_Willis> lava1:  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 seem
[04:06] <Dr_Willis> lava1:  if you are using the vga out.. then techincally you are atatching 2 Monitors. Not a monitor + tv out.
[04:06] <sloopy> today, what are you trying to accomplish in samba?
[04:07] <today> Dr_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 plzz
[04:07] <Purpley> Im creating a user via terminal and its asking for what shell is /dev/bash good?
[04:08] <Purpley> i forget the locations
[04:08] <greezmunkey> SpaceCowboy40404: 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, brb
[04:08] <Dr_Willis> today:   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] <Iklos> whois MoLE_
[04:08] <today> wait me a minutes, my father call
[04:08] <underdev> If i made a bootable USB with unetbootin, will i be able to save files and add packages to it?
[04:08] <Dr_Willis> today:  be sure to set the proper work group in smb.conf also.
[04:08] <SpaceCowboy40404> greezmunkey ok
[04:08] <Purpley> underdev: only if you make it a persistent usb thumbdrive
[04:08] <MoLE_> Iklos, I am me!
[04:08] <Dr_Willis> underdev:  unetbootin does not  by default have that featrue. You can tweak the install it makes to do that however.

[04:09] <carthagian_> hi
[04:09] <carthagian_> somebody help me ?
[04:09] <greezmunkey> SpaceCowboy40404: wow, nice tutorial here: http://kimbriggs.com/computers/computer-notes/linux-notes/ubuntu-linux-wi-fi-card.file
[04:09] <Dr_Willis> underdev:  also check pendrivelinux.com  (org?) for other ways to do it. You want to learn about 'persistant save'  feature of many disrtos.
[04:09] <MoLE_> so what 'solution' did you try for the fish Iklos ?
[04:10] <underdev> Dr_Willis: i tried the usb-boot-creator, and my bios doesn't recognize it as a usb anything...
[04:10] <SpaceCowboy40404> greezmunkey reading now
[04:10] <underdev> Dr_Willis: Ty, i'll check that site out
[04:10] <Dr_Willis> underdev:  thats odd.. and unetbootin made usb did work?
[04:10] <greezmunkey> SpaceCowboy40404: that one goes on my scratchpad..
[04:11] <underdev> downloading the iso now, i may try again with the 32 bit version
[04:11] <underdev> Thanks Dr_Willis
[04:11] <Purpley> Im trying to access my new user via ssh but when i enter the user and pass it says Access Denied
[04:11] <today> Dr_Willis:  me too, but has problem with my smb config, then i must go #ubuntu and ask some one
[04:11] <Iklos> MoLE_   -  "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] <Iklos> *log in with
[04:12] <SpaceCowboy40404> greezmunkey it says it is installing... maybee it wasn't
[04:12] <Iklos> MoLE_  -  I was able to login via the safe mode feature through the ncurses, but I must admit I am rather attatched to X
[04:12] <meowbuntu> hi i need a small browser for ubuntu. not firefox or chrome. and not cli.
[04:12] <Dr_Willis> today:  i change about 4 lines in the default smb.conf to get my stuff going.. set workgroup. and uncomment the HOME shares stuff.  and set them to be writeable - thats about it. i DONT use the 'user made share' feature at all
[04:12] <Purpley> meowbuntu: try elinks

[04:12] <Cornwall> carthagian_: What kind of file are you trying to play?
[04:12] <carthagian_> MP3

[04:13] <ardchoille> meowbuntu: links2, elinks, lynx, there are more in the repos
[04:13] <greezmunkey> SpaceCowboy40404: I would have thought that you would try runnung the ndisgtk command first...
[04:13] <Purpley> meowbuntu: that strips a lot of elements though like javascript css java etc.
[04:13] <cavemanugh> hello
[04:13] <carthagian_> The problem appeared when i Uninstalled Totem And Reinstalled IT ! Cornwall

[04:15] <today> uhm, i cant do my problem Dr_Willis :(
[04:15] <SpaceCowboy40404> greezmunkey do i use the NT or 9x driver?
[04:15] <ubuntu> hello
[04:15] <IdleOne> !hi | ubuntu
[04:16] <SpaceCowboy40404> greezmunkey both have a .inf file in them
[04:16] <Cornwall> meowbuntu: skipstone is also super lightweight (might be gtk1, though, and not in the repos)
[04:16] <greezmunkey> today: look here, rock stock file: http://paste.ubuntu.com/411913/
[04:16] <MoLE_> Iklos, I'm just researching a solution
[04:16] <ubuntu> you can helpme
[04:16] <hiexpo> IdleOne,  - :) well good evening to ya
[04:16] <ardchoille> meowbuntu: maybe midori?
[04:16] <IdleOne> hiexpo: :)
[04:16] <ubuntu> not yet
[04:16] <greezmunkey> SpaceCowboy40404: hmm, if I had to guess I'd use the NT file
[04:16] <today> lastest time, i do with that tutorial http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=202605 and access other PC( but can make other PC access my Ubuntu )
[04:17] <today> now i can do that both

[04:17] <greezmunkey> today: I backed mine up ;)
[04:18] <Rewind> Somebody here?
[04:18] <MoLE_> Iklos, try this solution https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-panel/+bug/482690/comments/11
[04:18] <IdleOne> Rewind: hello
[04:18] <Rewind> i found a bug in Ubuntu
[04:18] <SpaceCowboy40404> greezmunkey brb restarting network now
[04:18] <greezmunkey> SpaceCowboy40404: cool
[04:18] <IdleOne> Rewind: report it to Launchpad.net
[04:19] <Iklos> MoLE_ -   I stopped the fish - then I restarted - now I can't log in
[04:19] <Iklos> MoLE_ -  graphically at least
[04:19] <Rewind> IdleOne: but first  i need other view
[04:19] <MoLE_> Iklos, follow the instructions - you need to recreate your gnome-panel to login, it seems
[04:19] <IdleOne> Rewind: shoot, I'll see if I can reproduce
[04:20] <MoLE_> Iklos, Ctrl-Alt-F1 to open a virtual terminal
[04:20] <Rewind> IdleOne:  Give me a second
[04:20] <MoLE_> Iklos, then login using your normal login and password
[04:20] <Rewind> it's about the atl1e drivers or atl1c
[04:20] <hiexpo> IdleOne,  - thathad nothing to do with ubuntu but i walked in the door sat down read my screen and seen one of the persons said whois soinso so i rana quick scan and fingerprint and typed that // and that usually scares em away lol
[04:21] <MoLE_> Iklos, then type in "killall gnome-panel" without the quotes, of course
[04:21] <Purpley> I just added a user via useradd and when i type in "users" it only lists root
[04:21] <Purpley> but the user i created has a home directory and it says it exists
[04:22] <Rewind> when i up the drivers , Ubuntu crash after reboot
[04:22] <Rewind> exit
[04:22] <IdleOne> Rewind: I don't know what those drivers are for
[04:22] <IdleOne> and you left....
[04:22] <Iklos> MoLE_ - it replied "no process found"
[04:23] <hiexpo> IdleOne,  and now i see it is of one of the persons helping lol
[04:23] <Purpley> I just added a user via useradd and when i type in "users" it only lists root but the user exists why isnt it showing?
[04:23] <magger> where can i find a guide on how to install ubuntu using the alternate installation disc?
[04:23] <nullkuhl> how to access temperature sensors in ubuntu, i remember it was some echo command from a certain directory or so ? plz help
[04:23] <MoLE_> Iklos, then try running gnome-panel by typing in "gnome panel &" without the quotes
[04:23] <MoLE_> Iklos, sorry gnome-panel
[04:23] <maco> Purpley: it only lists logged in users
[04:24] <hiexpo> nullkuhl, lib-sensors
[04:24] <Purpley> how do i view the users password if im root?
[04:24] <Skeebers> hello
[04:24] <Purpley> i think i may be doing it wrong
[04:24] <maco> Purpley: you can view a *hash* of the password if you look in /etc/shadow
[04:24] <maco> Purpley: the password is not stored plaintext anywhere though
[04:24] <Purpley> maco: Can i reset the password?
[04:25] <IdleOne> hiexpo: it's lm-sensors  :)
[04:25] <maco> Purpley: sure, "sudo passwd username"
[04:25] <magger> Purpley:  you can set a new password using pwd
[04:25] <maco> magger: er no
[04:25] <Purpley> alright thanks
[04:25] <maco> magger: pwd Prints Working Directory
[04:25] <Iklos> MoLE_    -  oh boy... now I'm worried it says " cannot open display"
[04:25] <magger> arsh my bad
[04:25] <hiexpo> IdleOne,  - ok get specific why don't ya
[04:26] <IdleOne> hiexpo: sorry dude :) just trying to help you help
[04:26] <SpaceCowboy40404> greezmunkey im gonna cry
[04:26] <greezmunkey> SpaceCowboy40404: why?
[04:26] <hiexpo> i know i am tired
[04:26] <cloud> last time I try out random commands.........
[04:26] <Purpley> Does denyhost block an ip address after failing a certain number of logins?
[04:26] <IdleOne> hiexpo: haha unless I am mistaken linux is pretty picky about package names and such
[04:26] <SpaceCowboy40404> its till not seeing the wireless card even though it has the drivers installed with ndis
[04:26] <zdwc01_> 400220
[04:26] <MoLE_> Iklos, don't panic, just means the xorg display isn't responding.  Try going Ctrl-Alt-F7 to get back to your brown screen
[04:27] <magger> where can i find a guide on how to install ubuntu using the alternate installation disc?
[04:27] <hiexpo> IdleOne,  - ah it don't care lol
[04:27] <greezmunkey> SpaceCowboy40404: relax, it's nothing but a thing to figure out.
[04:27] <Purpley> Does denyhost block an ip address after failing a certain number of logins?
[04:27] <l0de> The l0de radio hour is now online! stream up at www.klulz.com , call in live at 914 502 2625! Tonight's Episode: THE DOWNTOWN MOTOWN SHOWDOWN AND THROWDOWN SO BRING YA HOW DOWN NIGGA U BOUT TO GET CLOWNED
[04:27] <cloud> mole: ya know how to get a Wii Remote (or other device that lacks a keypad and screen) to sync on Ubuntu 9.10?
[04:27] <SpaceCowboy40404> greezmunkey any other ideas?
[04:27] <bazhang> magger, its fairly simple, there is a text based (ncurses) interface just amoment
[04:27] <IdleOne> !ops | l0de
[04:27] <Iklos> MoLE_   - thanks for your patience - the lovely brown has returned
[04:27] <Captain_Long> Hey there. I am admittedly on my first install. I have a bit of an issue though, in that I am not entirely certain how to get the wireless working. It wants to activate these two drivers. . .
[04:27] <IdleOne> !language > l0de
[04:27] <hiexpo> !spam
[04:27] <cloud> mole: it DEMANDS I unput the sync number =-=; which I can't
[04:28] <magger> thx bazhang
[04:28] <ziroday> Purpley: yep, or you can use fail2ban
[04:28] <MoLE_> cloud, sorry I have no experience with a Wii
[04:28] <greezmunkey> SpaceCowboy40404: not without digging into it even more. Do you know that the card works?
[04:28] <cloud> mole: not Wii...bluetooth. It's a general Bluetooth problem. anyone here who does?
[04:28] <MoLE_> cloud, I can sync a Palm device and a nokia phone though
[04:28] <ShazbotMcNasty> !ubottu
[04:28] <ziroday> Purpley: denyhosts is mainly meant for ssh, whilst fail2ban works on a number of services
[04:28] <Purpley> ziroday: Lol i blocked my own ip address :P how would I take that out or give a certain ip immunity
[04:28] <Dunsti> hi all
[04:28] <hiexpo> !hi
[04:29] <MoLE_> cloud, can you be more specific about the problem?
[04:29] <SpaceCowboy40404> greezmunkey 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 website
[04:29] <bazhang> magger, the up and down arrows and tab/enter keys are what you use
[04:29] <greezmunkey> SpaceCowboy40404: That's the way to do it!
[04:29] <bazhang> magger, ie no mouse
[04:29] <nullkuhl> is it possible to tell cpu/gpu/mb temperature in ubunty if its managed by ACPI and not OS ?
[04:29] <magger> thank you i tough it would be alil more tricky.. so i jsut boot on the cd aswell..
[04:29] <Purpley> ziroday: Might my ip address be listed in the cfg file?
[04:29] <ziroday> Purpley: http://denyhosts.sourceforge.net/faq.html#3_7
[04:29] <tachiro1> anyone know of a good simple but powerful audio converter for ubuntu?
[04:29] <MoLE_> Iklos, can you login now?
[04:29] <cloud> mole: =/ 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] <Dunsti> I 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)
[04:30] <Baram> I'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] <Purpley> ziroday: Thanks alot :)
[04:30] <hiexpo> SpaceCowboy40404,  what did ya buy at wally world wifi dongle linksys?
[04:30] <Captain_Long> When 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] <ziroday> Purpley: no problems
[04:30] <zamabe> hmm, i can't get a GUI on boot without a keyboard plugged in =/
[04:30] <ziroday> Captain_Long: is it a graphical popup or a text message?
[04:30] <Iklos> MoLE_ -   no - still brown, but no login screen
[04:31] <greezmunkey> hiexpo: he has a Linksys WPC54g, broadcom PCMCIA card.
[04:31] <Purpley> ziroday: Also would it be considered foolish and unsafe or bad practice to make my local networks ip addresses immune?
[04:31] <Captain_Long> Ziroday: This is before I even reach the "ubuntu is loading" screen, just a few lines of text that pop up.
[04:31] <Captain_Long> Not an actual graphic.
[04:31] <hiexpo> greezmunkey, i wont work
[04:31] <SpaceCowboy40404> hiexpo its linksys wpc54g pcmia wireless card
[04:31] <W43372> I can't get Ubuntu to mount my windows network.
[04:31] <ziroday> Purpley: *shrug* I just use a ssh certificate in all honesty, I don't rely on password based logins
[04:31] <SpaceCowboy40404> greezmunkey no dice with the drivers form the cd either
[04:31] <hiexpo> it won't work
[04:31] <ziroday> Captain_Long: okay, can you pastebin your /var/log/syslog, the message should be in there
[04:32] <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] <SpaceCowboy40404> hiexpo why not?
[04:32] <Purpley> ziroday: Does that mean you can only connect to the server if you have the certificate on your computer?
[04:32] <greezmunkey> hiexpo: Tell us a story about that card please.
[04:32] <ziroday> Purpley: yep
[04:32] <hiexpo> they changed the chipset
[04:32] <Captain_Long> Ziroday: Rather difficult, since I haven't actually been to connect to the net yet.
[04:32] <cloud> MoLE_: Does it normally ask for the input thing anyway if the
[04:33] <cloud> mole: ... if the PIN is invalid?
[04:33] <Purpley> ziroday: 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] <greezmunkey> SpaceCowboy40404: If that's true, at least WallMart has a decent return policy.
[04:33] <ziroday> Captain_Long: ah. Wired or wireless?
[04:33] <ShadowKnight> hey, 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 fine
[04:33] <ShadowKnight> i know it said something about slow keys or something. idk what to do, any help?
[04:33] <Captain_Long> Wireless
[04:33] <hiexpo> maybe with a wrapper but that is useless
[04:33] <ziroday> Purpley: sure, its not a suitable fit for everyone :)
[04:33] <ziroday> Captain_Long: okay, what wireless card?
[04:33] <MoLE_> cloud, what do you mean "if the PIN is invalid"
[04:33] <Viking667> ShadowKnight: sounds like you have to turn SlowKeys back off again.
[04:33] <Iklos> MoLE_   -   yeah - I was just gonna say that a startx revealed taht x was the problem
[04:33] <ziroday> Captain_Long: and what version of ubuntu
[04:33] <Iklos> MoLE_   -    ill work on it
[04:33] <SpaceCowboy40404> greezmunkey once you open it.. its yours... for good.. this sux
[04:33] <Viking667> ShadowKnight: and that bit, I don't know how to do...
[04:33] <cloud> mole: if I use the wrong PIN..
[04:34] <Captain_Long> ziroday: I couldn't tell you the card, but it's 9.10
[04:34] <cloud> mole: Nevermid, there -is- no PIN...
[04:34] <ShadowKnight> okay thanks viking667
[04:34] <ziroday> Captain_Long: sure, if you do lspci | grep -i network you should see some mention of a wireless card
[04:34] <SpaceCowboy40404> hiexpo is that just with all linksys cards or just that particular card?
[04:35] <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_Willis> 0000 is not Null. :)
[04:36] <Captain_Long> Ziroday: I'm frankly not sure how to do that. *headscratch* Real nublet here. No worries, though, I'm not a moron.
[04:36] <Berzerker> having a null pin would probably be the safest, since you can't type nothing into the pin thing anyway
[04:36] <cloud> guide says there's no PIN
[04:37] <MoLE_> cloud, have you had a look at his page in the wiki https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CWiiD
[04:37] <ziroday> Captain_Long: oh sure sorry, Go to Applications > Terminal and then type in "lspci" and search for any mention of your wireless card
[04:37] <W43372> I can't get Ubuntu to mount my windows network.
[04:37] <cloud> Nope, thanks
[04:37] <hiexpo> just 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 them
[04:38] <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+ubuntu
[04:38] <cloud> "couldn't find package libcwiid0"
[04:38] <sereph> for 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
[04:38] <meowbuntu> hi i am having this weird error with ubuntu today. i cant install anything. http://pastebin.com/spam.php?i=UgbQe4bZ
[04:39] <SpaceCowboy40404> greezmunkey / hiexpo ... any reccomendations for a card to buy that i can just plug into the pcmia slot and it will work with no problems
[04:39] <Captain_Long> Ziroday: Network Controller?
[04:39] <hiexpo> because just because the model is ok does not mean anything the next version could be a blank because they changed the chipset
[04:39] <ziroday> Captain_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] <greezmunkey> W43372: sorry about that, do you have a hosts file on your winboxes? \windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts.txt I believe?
[04:39] <hiexpo> SpaceCowboy40404, let me look
[04:39] <Captain_Long> Network controller: broadcom coroporation BCM4311 802.11b/g WLAN (rev 01)
[04:39] <cloud> mole: don't know what those are.
[04:40]  * gent destroys nVidia
[04:40] <MoLE_> cloud, go to system, administration, software sources
[04:40] <greezmunkey> W43372: that file may not have an extension
[04:40] <ziroday> Captain_Long: perfect, that's your wireless card. Now how did you install ubuntu?
[04:40] <SpaceCowboy40404> captain long.. thats the same card i have that we just found out dont work
[04:40] <MoLE_> cloud, go through the tabs and have a look at which sources you have checked
[04:40] <W43372> greezmunkey, yes, hosts has
[04:41] <Captain_Long> Currently just on the live cd. Figured it was wise to figure out the net before actually going through with installation.
[04:41] <greezmunkey> W43372: is there a line that says localhost?
[04:41] <SpaceCowboy40404> captain long.. is that card working for you?
[04:41] <Iklos> MoLE_ - 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"
[04:42] <Captain_Long> SpaceCowboy: Couldn't say. Never connected to the net using Ubuntu before.
[04:42] <W43372> greezmunkey lmhosts
[04:42] <greezmunkey> W43372: no hosts?
[04:42] <SpaceCowboy40404> captain 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 ubuntu
[04:42] <W43372> greezmunkey there is hosts and lmhosts
[04:42] <ziroday> Captain_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 ubuntu
[04:42] <cloud> mole: 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_Long> SpaceCowboy: That would be my luck.
[04:42] <cloud> mole: apparently none o_O
[04:43] <ziroday> SpaceCowboy40404: it sounds like you are doing something wrong :)
[04:43] <SpaceCowboy40404> ziroday.... hiexpo says it wont
[04:43] <hiexpo> SpaceCowboy40404,  - 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 compatibility
[04:43] <SpaceCowboy40404> ziroday if i am please help
[04:43] <ziroday> SpaceCowboy40404: what drivers have you installed?
[04:43] <Captain_Long> Ziroday: Bah. Say, just a moment. Is the "key" the same as the password?
[04:43] <bazhang> SpaceCowboy40404, check the chipset then, bcm should most clearly work
[04:43] <SpaceCowboy40404> i tried the propriety and the ndis othing
[04:43] <ziroday> Captain_Long: key?
[04:43] <hiexpo> if its compatible it will be there
[04:43] <cloud> mole: ...selecting the ones that were there seems to have done nothing
[04:43] <_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 mad
[04:44] <ziroday> SpaceCowboy40404: right, well what does "lsmod | grep wl" turn up?
[04:44] <Captain_Long> Create new wireless network:
[04:44] <SpaceCowboy40404> hieziroday lemme check
[04:44] <Captain_Long> Connection: Network Name: wireless security: keyL:
[04:44] <ziroday> Captain_Long: ah yes, when it says key it means password. Is this a WEP encrypted access point?
[04:44] <W43372> greezmunkey there is hosts and lmhosts
[04:44] <greezmunkey> W43372: 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 window
[04:44] <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 index
[04:44] <hiexpo> SpaceCowboy40404, what version is yours before i blaber my mouth    ?
[04:45] <greezmunkey> W43372: that make sense to you?
[04:45] <Viking667> just don't select backports or testing
[04:45] <cloud> mole: which tab?
[04:45] <W43372> greezmunkey, Yes. Yes, it does.
[04:45] <SpaceCowboy40404> ziroday... this is what that gives: http://paste.ubuntu.com/411920/
[04:45] <hiexpo> its on the card ver
[04:45] <Captain_Long> Ziroday: 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] <SpaceCowboy40404> hiexpo version 1
[04:45] <Iklos> MoLE_  -  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 mad
[04:45] <hiexpo> ok 1 sec
[04:46] <MoLE_> Iklos, what version of ubuntu are you running?
[04:46] <ziroday> SpaceCowboy40404: okay, can you pastebin the contents of /var/log/syslog and the output of the commands "ifconfig -a" and "lshw -C network" please
[04:46] <Iklos> MoLE_   -   9.10
[04:46] <sereph> for 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 reason
[04:46] <ShazbotMcNasty> _pg_, have you tried unetbootin?
[04:46] <SpaceCowboy40404> ziroday ok
[04:46] <ziroday> Captain_Long: sure, no worries then
[04:46] <W43372> greezmunkey I have 127.0.0.1 as localhost
[04:47] <ironfoot495> Hello I need some help . I can't open my display on ubuntu 9.10.
[04:47] <Captain_Long> Let 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] <greezmunkey> W43372: Thats good make it say 127.0.0.1 localhosts {your machine name here} all on the same line
[04:47] <histo> is 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] <histo> i'm trying su faxmaster because the faxmaster has mail
[04:47] <greezmunkey> W43372: localhost, not localhosts
[04:47] <_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 sudden
[04:48] <_pg_> ShazbotMcNasty: thanks though :D
[04:48] <ziroday> Captain_Long: not that I know off, only wpa2-enterprise can get a little sticky, but I doubt you are using that
[04:48] <ironfoot495> I have the terminal display but can't get the graphical display???
[04:48] <Iklos> MoLE_  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] <ShazbotMcNasty> I mean.. it's super easy, and works every time.
[04:48] <Captain_Long> Ziroday: We're likely pretty good then. I've just selected to begin installation.
[04:48] <W43372> greezmunkey 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 osx
[04:49] <ironfoot495> The mouse Icon comes up but goes directly to the terminal Display!!
[04:49] <Captain_Long> Nothing 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 simple
[04:49] <ziroday> Captain_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 Drivers
[04:49] <Iklos> MoLE_   -  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 grubs
[04:49] <ironfoot495> Is there a way to fix this???
[04:49] <ShazbotMcNasty> _pg_, it only requires a reboot when you are booting it
[04:49] <greezmunkey> W43372: example line: 127.0.0.1 localhost winbox1
[04:49] <ziroday> Captain_Long: give it a sec :)
[04:49] <MoLE_> Iklos, Odd Not sure why they removed the xorg fix option
[04:49] <_pg_> ShazbotMcNasty: i would have to reboot into windows to use unetbootin
[04:49] <Iklos> >.>;
[04:49] <ShazbotMcNasty> ironfoot495, in terminal type 'startx'
[04:49] <ShazbotMcNasty> oh
[04:49] <SpaceCowboy40404> ziroday... here ya go: http://paste.ubuntu.com/411923/
[04:49] <MoLE_> I will have to check my 9.10 install
[04:49] <ironfoot495> I've got a lot of files I'm trying to keep from loosing??
[04:49] <greezmunkey> W43372: save that then from a dos window ping winbox1, see what happens
[04:49] <ShazbotMcNasty> I wasn't sure if you could use the unetbootin bin in osx
[04:50] <ShazbotMcNasty> since it is nuix/bsd based...
[04:50] <ziroday> SpaceCowboy40404: you need to do "cat /var/log/syslog", sorry
[04:50] <Dr_Willis> ShazbotMcNasty:  it also has windows binaries. - but ive neer seen os-x ones
[04:50] <_pg_> ShazbotMcNasty: afaik there is only a windows version
[04:50] <W43372> greezmunkey wouldn't it be 192.168.1.2 localhost Carrier seeing as that's the IP of the winbox on the network?
[04:50] <ziroday> SpaceCowboy40404: also can you do "lsmod" please
[04:50] <greezmunkey> W43372: Do you give your PCs static addresses?
[04:50] <ironfoot495> I typed startx and it says server error!
[04:50] <ShazbotMcNasty> afaik?
[04:51] <ShazbotMcNasty> ironfoot495, then you broke something
[04:51] <hiexpo> OK if you get that card to work your a magician unless your using a wrapper
[04:51] <ShazbotMcNasty> _pg_, well there is a linux version...
[04:51] <kermit> is there a way to make a copy-on-write file?
[04:51] <W43372> greezmunkey no, but that's what the IP is and has been for a while.
[04:51] <ziroday> SpaceCowboy40404: is the wireless card detected by network manager?
[04:51] <Captain_Long> Bah, I'm an impatient one.
[04:51] <ironfoot495> ShazbotMcNasty: can you help me?
[04:51] <ShazbotMcNasty> but you're in osx..
[04:51] <ShazbotMcNasty> ironfoot495, well I don't know what you did.
[04:51] <ShazbotMcNasty> What'd you do before it broke?
[04:51] <greezmunkey> W43372: Then do that, it's ok
[04:51] <_pg_> ShazbotMcNasty: indeed-huff
[04:51] <ironfoot495> I fsck and when it came back I had no graphical screen??
[04:52] <SpaceCowboy40404> ziroday.. here ya go: http://paste.ubuntu.com/411924/   and the card is not seen in the network manager
[04:52] <ShazbotMcNasty> ironfoot495, you formatted your hard drive?
[04:52] <ironfoot495> no
[04:52] <ShazbotMcNasty> oh
[04:52] <ShazbotMcNasty> 'repair'
[04:52] <ShazbotMcNasty> uhmm yeah
[04:52] <ironfoot495> I'd loose data if I did that?
[04:52] <ShazbotMcNasty> well it obviously broke something
[04:52] <ShazbotMcNasty> it's very possible
[04:53] <ironfoot495> The mouse Icon comes up but after that I get the terminal screen.
[04:53] <SpaceCowboy40404> ziroday here is the other you wanted: http://paste.ubuntu.com/411926/
[04:53] <ironfoot495> I've lost my graphical login display.
[04:54] <hiexpo> SpaceCowboy40404,  it has speed booster huh
[04:54] <ziroday> SpaceCowboy40404: right, first can you do sudo rmmod ndiswrapper
[04:54] <ziroday> SpaceCowboy40404: then do sudo apt-get install bcmwl-kernel-source
[04:55] <_pg_> is there a gui for ng-aircrack suite? terminal is scary
[04:55] <SpaceCowboy40404> ziroday: ERROR: Module ndiswrapper does not exist in /proc/modules
[04:55] <ziroday> SpaceCowboy40404: okay, nevermind. Just do sudo apt-get install bcmwl-kernel-source
[04:56] <cloud> mole: Couple of the files are missing. Found a forum post saying that trying to locate them via browser pulls up a 404
[04:56] <cloud> mole: or something like that...read more and now I'm confused again
[04:56] <SpaceCowboy40404> ziroday: got this
[04:56] <punto_> #ubuntu-br
[04:57] <SpaceCowboy40404> ziroday: oops here it is again: http://paste.ubuntu.com/411928/
[04:57] <ziroday> SpaceCowboy40404: okay, its already installed. Then can you go to System > Administration > Hardware Drivers. Does it find your wireless card?
[04:58] <jeeez> hi, i have a set of html files. how do i convert it to a single pdf document?
[04:58] <cloud> mole: http://forum.linuxmce.org/index.php?action=printpage;topic=7626.0
[04:59] <SpaceCowboy40404> ziroday: it says Broadcom STA Wireless driver: this driver is activated and currently in use
[04:59] <ziroday> SpaceCowboy40404: right, fantastic
[05:00] <ziroday> SpaceCowboy40404: finally can you do sudo modprobe -r ssb b43 wl

[05:00] <Iklos> Can anyone help me fix a broken gnome-panel/xorg display problem?
[05:00] <hiexpo> warnin g to all a lot of the usb and pcim cards now are supported for wireless n which are not supported in Linux /// we have not yet been able to come up for a solution for this yet and have been working on this problem now for 2 years the solution will be given as soon as we have an answer for the new hardware being supplied //// the best solution at this time is to got to your supplier and get model numer and the version of it
[05:00] <hiexpo> and come back home and see if it is compatable before you buy it /// i suggest if you can find older cards on  buying them
[05:00] <SpaceCowboy40404> ziroday: it gave me this reply: http://paste.ubuntu.com/411929/
[05:01] <ziroday> SpaceCowboy40404: yes, it sounds like you've mucked up your ndiswrapper install with hiexpo. No worries, we can take a look at it later
[05:01] <IdleOne> jeeez: python-pisa
[05:01] <ziroday> SpaceCowboy40404: then please do sudo modprobe wl
[05:01] <IdleOne> don't ask me how to use it :/
[05:01] <Rotor_> hi am brand new to ubuntu can any one direct me to the right channel for help with plugin problem for online video???
[05:02] <ziroday> Rotor_: you're in the right place :)
[05:02] <_pg_> is anyone familiar with the "revert the gui to how it started" feature in OpenGeu?
[05:02] <Dr_Willis> Rotor_:  clarify the site, and exact problem
[05:02] <_pg_> I think ubuntu should have that.
[05:03] <jeeez> IdleOne: i wont ask how, but does it help me put a bunch of files together into a single pdf?
[05:03] <_pg_> Rotor_: do you have the Flash plugin installed?
[05:03] <Iklos> I'm currently sitting where the login screen in Ubuntu 9.10 is, except all I see is the brown backdrop - the login box and the panel at the bottom are both missing.  When I go to the virtual termina (ctrl + alt +f1) and try startx, it claims I already have a x session in its logs.  When I log into a recovery session, I do not have an option ot fix the Xorg server.  I can resume the boot process and start x from the shell, but a n
[05:03] <Iklos> umber of the gnome apps are all broken for some reason.  IS anyone familiar with this issue?
[05:03] <IdleOne> jeeez: apparently there is also htmldoc like Dr_Willis suggested
[05:03] <Dr_Willis> or the print to pdf tools :)
[05:04] <Dr_Willis> Rotor_:  speak to the channel.. not  by pming me.
[05:04] <hiexpo> i create wireless drivers so i know what i  am saying i test them daily //// in order to hack them and make them work you have to be a  hack
[05:04] <jeeez> i didn't notice that one! :\ let me check it otu

[05:14] <aliendude3500> Hi... 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] <swoody> Rotor_: go into synaptic, and remove anything with reference to those two, and restart your browser :)
[05:14] <rm200910> Luis_: can you tell more? Are the files erased?
[05:15] <meoblast001> i believe there is a bug in this version of the driver that is preventing my software from running correctly
[05:15] <Rotor_> swoody will do thnx

[05:21] <hiexpo> SpaceCowboy40404,  - exactly i mean if they can make it work kool i could not without a wrapper and i find that useless
[05:21] <rm200910> Luis_: I think your data *will* get lost if you restart with Live CD.
[05:21] <SpaceCowboy40404> i tried ubuntu about 2 years ago on a different laptop and never could get the wireless working then... ditched it and went back to windows untill now and just forked over almost 200 dollars for vista and then a month later windows 7 comes out and im not upgrading again... hence why im trying to get ubuntu going fully this time around

[05:21] <Luis_> rm200910: I tried see what I have, but only show> lost+found
[05:21] <meoblast001> should i uninstall the driver in Synaptic, and recompile it with prefix /usr?
[05:22] <rm200910> Luis_: 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 want
[05:22] <Dr_Willis> SpaceCowboy40404:  last 4 laptops ive tried with ubuntu.. i was suprised the wireless worked ith no hassles.
[05:22] <rm200910> Luis_: the lost+found directory is a standard Linux thing in most file systems
[05:22] <SpaceCowboy40404> i like the idea of ubuntu cause its so different from windows.. its learning how to use a pc all over again and makes it exciting again :)
[05:23] <omahasteak> best cdripper app on ubuntu?
[05:23] <Luis_> rm200910: I'm going to read the forum.

[05:29] <Luis_> rm200910: I read the forum post, but their talked about use a USB to run live version, do you recomend me that?
[05:30] <ravageur> I need to reinstall my Ubuntu but I have my /home dir encrypted, I am wondering how can I unecrypt it, so that it is easier to setup during the installation?
[05:30] <Coburn> SpaceCowboy40404: Dodgy HDD I assume?
[05:30] <rodriguezjfz> iptables is the only one ubuntu firewall?
[05:30] <Coburn> meowbuntu: Okay, I can see the issue. Do you have a terminal handy?
[05:30] <magger> i need to go edit a file on my fresh install of ubuntu that will not boot, wich live cd should i download for that ?
[05:30] <nomasteryoda> rodriguezjfz, managed with ufw simplifies it though

[05:31] <meowbuntu> Coburn, fire away

[05:32] <Coburn> meowbuntu: alright, open terminal and enter gksudo gedit /var/lib/dpkg/available
[05:32] <swoody> magger: if you're really interested in keeping a liveCD for this kind of thing, you could try Knopppix, too :)
[05:32] <teguh> i'm newbe here
[05:32] <meowbuntu> done
[05:32] <Coburn> meowbuntu: then enter your password, click okay
[05:33] <meowbuntu> Coburn, i am not to new

[05:33] <jimfive1> I am trying to get http://www.cs.ubc.ca/~lowe/keypoints/ to compile for 64-bit Ubuntu. Any one can help would be great.
[05:33] <meowbuntu> Coburn, then

[05:35] <teguh> gyache for ubuntu 64 bit can not for voice call, how to fix it
[05:35] <Coburn> meowbuntu: Choose replace all?
[05:35] <hiexpo> ver 1 is like 4 years old are u sure
[05:35] <tawm> i'd setting up a media server and my boot partition is on sda and i have two drives, sdb and sdd, that i'd like to use as the main storage point either mirrored raid1 or rsync from one to the other. does anyone have opinions on the two? I understand raid1 and some guys at work really like rsync but i still don't uderstand why they like it
[05:36] <meowbuntu> there is no find and replace in gedit
[05:36] <meowbuntu> ^ Coburn
[05:36] <hiexpo> meowbuntu,  _ hi
[05:36] <Coburn> meowbuntu: *checks*
[05:36] <meowbuntu> Coburn, its search>replace
[05:37] <Coburn> meowbuntu: It's Search -> Replace
[05:37] <Coburn> meowbuntu: too used to mac os x... hehe :P
[05:37] <Coburn> meowbuntu: thanks for correction
[05:37] <tawm> someone was talking about irssi and not being able to scroll up: its shift+pageup
[05:38] <meowbuntu> ok done now will try again thanks
[05:38] <swoody> tawm: it's just pageup for me :)
[05:38] <hiexpo> SpaceCowboy ver 1 is like 4  years old are u sure could it be like ver 1. something
[05:38] <meowbuntu> Coburn, ok done now will try again thanks
[05:38] <deadlyblue> ubuntupocket guide .. who ever gave me the link for this thanks a million
[05:38] <tawm> swoody: guessing you modified the defaults or do i just have an effed up install of irssi
[05:39]  * Coburn ponders about Ubuntu on the Wii. Unfortunely, it's only got 96MB RAM...
[05:39] <Cornwall> Coburn: There's always fluxbuntu!
[05:39] <swoody> tawm: could be the keyboards? Pageup is default for me
[05:39] <acaxe> join #android
[05:39] <Cornwall> Coburn: better yet, who needs a GUI? go CLI!
[05:40] <greezmunkey> swoody: same here
[05:40] <Coburn> Cornwall: Minimal System Requirements for fluxbuntu?
[05:40] <Coburn> Cornwall: One thing- the Wii is PowerPC, not x86.
[05:40] <ubuntufreak> hate this
[05:40] <tawm> swoody: stuff doesn't like to work "normally" for me
[05:41] <Coburn> meowbuntu: how's it goin'? Does it work?
[05:41] <hiexpo> ubuntufreak, whats wrong?
[05:41] <Cornwall> Coburn: oh, how sad
[05:41] <swoody> tawm: lol, when does it ever work 'normally'? ;)
[05:41] <Cornwall> Coburn: I don't know Fluxbox's requirements, but I think they're pretty darn low
[05:41] <tawm> swoody: after i punch it in the face for about 5 hours
[05:42] <geekphreak> swoody: ubuntu works normally for me :) , i screw up sometime heh :)
[05:42] <swoody> lol
[05:42] <geekphreak> swoody:  gets the feeling you been there lol
[05:42] <swoody> geekphreak: a time or two ;)
[05:43] <Cornwall> Coburn: 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] <Coburn> tawm: I suggest you stick away from Windows: It wouldn't work for ya, mate
[05:43] <magger> that nasty bug about screen flcikering after a fresh install need fix
[05:43] <swoody> geekphreak: that's half the fun, messing up your system so you can figure out how to fix it
[05:43] <tawm> does anyone have opinions on using rsync vs software raid1 for local data protection from hardware failure
[05:43] <Coburn> Cornwall: Now that's a idea!
[05:43] <airtonix> meowbuntu, i dont know how complicated you want your find replace, but there is a proper regex plugin for gedit floating around somwhere
[05:43] <Cornwall> Coburn: Just don't use Firefox or Open Office :P
[05:43] <geekphreak> swoody: but i belive in , if it aint broke, dont fix it :)
[05:43] <tawm> Coburn: sadly i support windows at work and frequently it just doesn't work
[05:43] <hiexpo> swoody,  i do it all the time on purpose
[05:44] <Coburn> :D
[05:44] <Coburn> Installation Finished on my Macbook of Ubuntu 10
[05:44] <Coburn> BRB peeps
[05:44] <airtonix> Cornwall, 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] <meowbuntu> Coburn, there was another similar error fixed that now it seems to be installing fine
[05:44] <magger> hey 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 out
[05:44] <je2345> is some1 able to direct me on how to access music on my hard drive but with windows 7
[05:45] <underdev> Dr_Willis: are you there?
[05:45] <Dr_Willis> underdev:  hmm? I pop in and out all day
[05:45] <airtonix> je2345, ask this on #windows
[05:45] <je2345> m wireless worked perfect right after ubuntu booted up
[05:45] <tawm> magger: you will have to be more specific
[05:45] <Cornwall> airtonix: I'm sure his processor is more than 500 Mhz...
[05:45] <underdev> You've helped me many times, maybe i can return a favor.  Have you ever ran into the plop boot manager?
[05:45] <airtonix> Cornwall, my desktop is a core duo 2.3ghz and arpwatch brings it to its knees
[05:45] <hiexpo> magger,  what card?
[05:46] <tawm> magger: lots of them work. have you checked to see if your specific hardware is supported by ubuntu?
[05:46] <magger> well.. by default it was not supported
[05:46] <magger> would be plug and play in backtrack tho
[05:46] <Cornwall> airtonix: Who said he's even going to use it?
[05:46] <magger> long time isnce i looked into it
[05:46] <Cornwall> airtonix: I've run Xubuntu just fine on old PPCs under 1 Ghz
[05:46] <W43372> I can't get Ubuntu to mount my windows network.
[05:46] <magger> i cant recall my card specifics info
[05:46] <Cornwall> And Lubuntu is even less intensive
[05:47] <hiexpo> SpaceCowboy can u guys us a usb card
[05:47] <web5|org|ua> fasttrak 378 controller + ubuntu (need driver) !
[05:47] <teguh> my xubuntu is slowly, cpu look sleep, how to increase speed..?
[05:47] <aliciapg> does anyone know how to limit file size with mencoder?
[05:47] <magger> well time to smoke up while that other live cd is downlaoding.. been the worst ubuntu installation night in history im telling you
[05:47] <underdev> Dr_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 USB
[05:47] <airtonix> Cornwall, think you missed the point
[05:48] <magger> !ot
[05:48] <underdev> Dr_Willis: regardless of distro
[05:48] <Dr_Willis> aliciapg:  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] <Cornwall> airtonix: He can't run super intensive programs. Is that it? I'm not getting you
[05:48] <aliciapg> Dr_Willis: did that, example doesn't work for me
[05:48] <airtonix> Cornwall, no, you wont be able to tell if a program is going to eat your cpu until you try it.
[05:48] <Dr_Willis> aliciapg:  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.,
[05:49] <Dr_Willis> aliciapg:  mencoder forums may have some other examples also.
[05:49] <aliciapg> Dr_Willis: nope only seems to have one
[05:49] <imp|cat> avidemux can encode to a set size with certain codecs and two pass encoding
[05:49] <Cornwall> airtonix: 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!
[05:50] <SpaceCowboy40404> ziroday is awesome
[05:50] <Cornwall> airtonix: again: I ran Xubuntu just fine on an ibook 700 Mhz PPC
[05:50] <SpaceCowboy40404> im on  my wireless now'
[05:50] <airtonix> Cornwall, dont get upset. im saying you dont judge a book by its cover.
[05:50] <ziroday> SpaceCowboy40404: hehe, turns out the issue was really easy to fix :)
[05:50] <Dr_Willis> aliciapg:  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] <SpaceCowboy40404> what was it
[05:50] <Cornwall> airtonix: Then you should have said that in the first place :)
[05:50] <SpaceCowboy40404> i just copied and pasted
[05:51] <greezmunkey> SpaceCowboy40404: whaa?
[05:51] <hiexpo> SpaceCowboy40404, ure working?
[05:51] <Cornwall> airtonix: 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 use
[05:51] <SpaceCowboy40404> yepper on wirelss as we speak
[05:51] <aliciapg> imp|cat: well how would i do that with avidemux? i couldn't find a way to set that
[05:51] <tawm> magger: 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 is
[05:51] <underdev> Is it normal that making a live USB drive takes a long time?  Or is a sandisk cruizer 8g a slow USB stick?
[05:52] <SpaceCowboy40404> apperantl;y you have to left click the network manager icon in the upper right and actually connect to the ssid
[05:52] <Cornwall> underdev: It usually take 5 minutes max for me
[05:52] <je2345> i have to go to #windows to ask a question about music on windows but want to access while using Ubuntu
[05:52] <greezmunkey> SpaceCowboy40404: dude! :)
[05:52] <hiexpo> how and what ver of card?
[05:52] <SpaceCowboy40404> LOL
[05:52] <Cornwall> underdev: and I have some pretty clunky hardware
[05:52] <greezmunkey> heh
[05:52] <Dr_Willis> underdev:  the creation of a 'save file' can take a long time - depeing on the size you set.
[05:52] <SpaceCowboy40404> same one .. version 1
[05:52] <SpaceCowboy40404> i think
[05:52] <underdev> Cornwall: this is a phenom iix4- rats!!!
[05:52] <greezmunkey> SpaceCowboy40404: there it is, and you were ready to give up!
[05:52] <hiexpo> it cant be ver was 2004
[05:52] <swoody> je2345: you shouldn't have any problems accessing a Windows partition from Ubuntu. Is it not working for you?
[05:53] <imp|cat> aliciapg, let me start avidemux and we'll see... Just a moment.
[05:53] <underdev> Dr_Willis: okay, it's 4 gigs
[05:53] <airtonix> SpaceCowboy40404 , 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] <SpaceCowboy40404> cya later vista and i'm never buying windows 7 or the next new flavor of each damn month
[05:53] <Cornwall> underdev: yikes :)
[05:53] <Cornwall> underdev: have you tried unetbootin? that's a pretty neat program in the repos
[05:53] <hiexpo> SpaceCowboy40404,  i am so happy 4 u but ver 1 was 4 years ago
[05:54] <SpaceCowboy40404> i appreciate everyones help.... greezymonkey, hiexpo. and ziroday
[05:54] <underdev> Cornwall: yeah, but i kept getting a problem that FD0 wasn't detected
[05:54] <underdev> Cornwall: at your suggestion i used it :)
[05:54] <Cornwall> underdev: at my suggestion? Do I have an alternate form?
[05:54] <Dr_Willis> unetbootin does not support the creation of a perisstant save file. (yet)
[05:55]  * aliciapg waits for imp|cat 
[05:55] <SpaceCowboy40404> i 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 either
[05:55] <underdev> Cornwall: sorry, someone else had suggested it.  i thought it was you :)
[05:55] <Cornwall> Dr_Willis: Yeah, but It's never not worked for me :D
[05:55] <SpaceCowboy40404> when i switched back to the propriatry drivers and then actually connected to the ssid thats when it worked
[05:55] <Cornwall> underdev: No worries :)
[05:55] <Dr_Willis> Cornwall:  ive had issues with Unetbootin and the setting up of syslinux at times.  Perhaps some day it will switch to grub2
[05:56] <airtonix> SpaceCowboy40404, for ndiswrapper to work properly you need to blacklist the other drivers ubuntu might use for your wifi card then reboot (assuming you already installed the ndis drivers)
[05:56] <greezmunkey> hiexpo: it shows up as v1, maybe theres a flash upgrade for the card itself. Matters not at this point, it's working :)
[05:56] <Cornwall> Dr_Willis: How sad. Well, I've always had good basic usage experience
[05:56] <SpaceCowboy40404> again thanks for a million for all the help greezymunkey, hiexpo and ziroday.. you guys rock... goin to watch spartacus blood and sand with the wife now as she is nagging
[05:57] <hiexpo> greezmunkey,  gotta be a wrapper
[05:57] <greezmunkey> SpaceCowboy40404: nice :)
[05:57] <imp|cat> Aliciapg, openthe video in avidemux and then select codec(on the left, in the drop down menu, ie MPEG4 ASP Xvid), the you can set the properties. In the xvid configuration, main tab, set encoding type to "two pass -video size" and target video size MB to whatever you want
[05:57] <hiexpo> SpaceCowboy40404,  is it working on a wrapper?
[05:58] <hiexpo> kool
[05:58] <jimfive2> on ubuntu live cd how to copy something to lib
[05:58] <jimfive2> ?
[05:58] <Dr_Willis> aliciapg:  i think avidemux has an option to show the command line its using. :) thats one way to learn all the options
[05:58] <Gent> uhhh
[05:58] <Gent> is there any way in lucid to change the menus/toolbars to not show icons?
[05:58] <Dr_Willis> jimfive2:  copying what exactly?
[05:58] <Cornwall> man, first pidgin crash in forever
[05:58] <ziroday> Gent: #ubuntu+1 :)
[05:59] <Dr_Willis> Gent:  that used to be a gnome option. No idea if its still there or not.
[05:59] <dim3000> anyone now a fix for the appeareance settings freeze on 10.04
[05:59] <hiexpo> greezmunkey,  yes but i wanna know i wite drivers
[05:59] <gerryxiao> hello
[05:59] <Gent> yeah, it used to be in menus & toolbars under system prefs
[05:59] <gerryxiao> how to know my ubuntu is lucid beta 1 or beta 2?
[05:59] <aliciapg> thank you imp|cat :D
[05:59] <aliciapg> Dr_Willis: where is that?
[05:59] <Dr_Willis> aliciapg:  check its settings/options.  most all of these front ends can show the command line they are using.
[06:00] <psycho_oreos> !lucid | gerryxiao
[06:00] <jimfive2> I need to copy libANN_char.so to my lib folder on the livecd, but don't know how.
[06:00] <gerryxiao> ok
[06:00] <Dr_Willis> jimfive2:  mount the  installed system and use  'sudo cp whatever /media/yourmountpoint/lib/whatever   (using the proper paths)
[06:00] <pshr> Hello
[06:00] <pshr> !hello
[06:01] <pshr> !hi
[06:01] <aliciapg> Dr_Willis: hmm...i don't see anything...
[06:01] <psycho_oreos> !in | pshr
[06:02] <Dr_Willis> aliciapg:  you could always let ot start converting then use 'ps ax' to see what commands its running
[06:04] <aliciapg> Dr_Willis: yeah i don't seen anything there either >-<
[06:04] <afed> someone tell me why nautilus might want to allocate a gigabyte of memory (and not be able to do it and therefore not start)
[06:05] <afed> running 9.04 livecd, 1 gig ram, no swap
[06:05] <Dr_Willis> aliciapg:  i also use winff a lot.  it has similer features.. and thers 'handbrake'
[06:05] <afed> should work but i have a black desktop and no file management
[06:06] <hiexpo> ziroday,  how'd ya get him going?
[06:07] <Curly_Q> Afed check this URL out:    http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-198998.html
[06:07] <imp|cat> afed: first thing I would do is check the consistency of the liveCD, one of the boot options can do it for you
[06:07] <aliciapg> Dr_Willis: *nods* i have those too but really i just wanted a video i had to be a certain size >-< i kind of wanted to learn how in mencoder but no one seems to know how to use it
[06:08] <afed> Curly_Q, lol @ that
[06:08] <afed> "hey guys i just discovered this awesome command"
[06:08] <Curly_Q> Your welcome.
[06:09] <afed> imp|cat, thx, doing that
[06:09] <afed> just burned the cd, it is suspect
[06:09] <magger> wath is the lightest to download and most efficient live cd should i useif i just want to edit a file on a hard drive
[06:09] <Dr_Willis> aliciapg:   proper codecs and options for 2 pass. If avidemux can do it.. then its doing it. :) somehow..
[06:09] <magger> i just dont wana wait 30 min download if a 100 med distro do it as good
[06:09] <hiexpo> :)
[06:10] <Dr_Willis> aliciapg:  mencoder inputfile.mpg -ovc xvid -xvidencopts bitrate=-800000  -o output.avi
[06:10] <Dr_Willis> aliciapg:  i recall the 'trick' is the negative bitrate.
[06:11] <jeeves> how can I fix a broken package system?  I've tried "apt-get update -f"
[06:11] <tawm> jeeves: what's broken about it?
[06:11] <ZykoticK9> jeeves, try "sudo apt-get -f install"
[06:11] <afed> what is it with ubuntu users wanting to copy and paste commands into their terminal without understanding anything
[06:12] <Sa[i]nT> Is there an app that provides like a Vault where i can keep files and it be encrypted?
[06:12] <jeeves> ZykoticK9, I've tried that already
[06:12] <magger> is there a way to boot using a specific video driver?
[06:12] <Curly_Q> Afed because most everyone here are Windows converts.
[06:12] <ZykoticK9> jeeves, ok - it was just the order was backwards in your post
[06:13] <afed> try "sudo rm -rf /"
[06:13] <geekphreak> Curly_Q: howdy :)
[06:13] <ZykoticK9> !danger
[06:13] <Curly_Q> Greets to GeekPhreak.   :)
[06:13] <Sa[i]nT> afed, Ouch man.
[06:13] <geekphreak> plz do not try that command
[06:13] <brianherman1> meowbuntu:can you install packages from the command line?
[06:13] <greezmunkey> afed: that will get you bounced
[06:13] <afed> haha you need a macro for that
[06:13] <ZykoticK9> greezmunkey, it will if an Op notices
[06:13] <Dr_Willis> aliciapg:  that example i just pasted seems to work for me.
[06:13] <Curly_Q> Magger, why would anyone want to boot with a specific video driver?
[06:14] <aliciapg> Dr_Willis: but i was trying with x264....
[06:14] <afed> i expose a major flaw in the way your entire user base does things and you threaten to ban me?
[06:14] <Dr_Willis> aliciapg:  it may only work with SPECIFIC codecs.. ive no real idea if it can work with x264 or not.
[06:14] <jeeves> tawm, "subprocess dpkg-deb --control returned error exit status 2"
[06:14] <Curly_Q> Booting is booting. Drivers are for video and not for booting.
[06:15] <Curly_Q> Drivers load up during booting process.
[06:15] <magger> i installed a fresh ubuntu with the alternate cd and there is something i need to edit so it use a different video driver for the future
[06:15] <Dr_Willis> aliciapg:  i find i have to covnert things away from x264  for my netbook to handle them :) or reduce the res, or other cutbacks..  it cant quite handle full HD video
[06:15] <aliciapg> Dr_Willis: *nods* i just wanted to try to keep the quality
[06:16] <greezmunkey> afed: I would venture to guess that you've pasted a command or two in your day as well. Everyone learns by doing.
[06:16] <Dr_Willis> changeign size will proberly change quality also.. somthing has to give. :)
[06:16] <ZykoticK9> aliciapg, if you are interested in MP4 with x264 I'd highly recommend you check out Handbrake, it isn't in the repo but a DEB is available from their site
[06:16] <afed> for certain definitions of doing
[06:16] <Curly_Q> Booting starts with the MBR then the top level software or OS.
[06:17] <magger> Curly_Q:  i neet to go into etc/X11/xorg.conf and change the driver from nvidia to nv
[06:17] <afed> fucking up your package manager and figuring out how to fix it by research and hard work is "doing"
[06:17] <tawm> jeeves: google says to try "apt-get clean" i'm not entirely sure what "clean" does tho
[06:17] <geekphreak> afed:  watch language plz
[06:17] <afed> getting bailed out by a web page is not
[06:17] <aliciapg> ZykoticK9: I actually already have handbrake
[06:17] <jeeves> tawm, thanks, that's the one I needed
[06:17] <afed> geekphreak, sorry english is not my first language
[06:18] <Curly_Q> Magger do a Google on that.
[06:18] <magger> but as i cannot boot it its pretty hard.. i will get a live cd that work  and get it done
[06:18] <tawm> jeeves: :D i'm helping
[06:19] <jeeves> tawm, thanks!
[06:19] <Curly_Q> Magger check this link:     http://www.google.com/#hl=en&q=nvidia+to+nv+change&aq=f&aqi=&aql=&oq=&gs_rfai=&fp=bcdf8cbbf06dc4f
[06:19] <ja660k> hey guys, is there a way.. given a username to find theyre default shell?
[06:19] <afed> yes, ja660k, consider where that setting is stored
[06:20] <tawm> afed: people have to learn somewhere. for people comming from other non *nix oses it can be like jumping in the deep end
[06:20] <ja660k> im guessing in $shell variable?
[06:20] <afed> just grep and cut /etc/passwd
[06:20] <Curly_Q> By the way guys and gals, offer a shred of appreciation to all of the good folks here giving their kind and free assistence.
[06:20] <Dr_Willis> ja660k:  or -->  grep $USER /etc/passwd
[06:20] <aliciapg> Dr_Willis: yeah, i guess that's why i couldn't find it maybe or i'm looking in all the wrong places >-<
[06:20] <afed> ^ see, i give him the pieces and let him learn to put them together
[06:20] <afed> Dr_Willis does his work for him
[06:21] <ja660k> thanks Dr_Willis and afed
[06:21] <Dr_Willis> ja660k:  $SHELL would be the current shell.. not the default.
[06:21] <ja660k> Dr_Willis, i think that'll do
[06:21] <Curly_Q> Dr Willis good to see you again today. I hope all is well with you.
[06:22] <Dr_Willis> Curly_Q:  yep. got the weekend off.
[06:22] <Curly_Q> Yeah!  My wife is asleep and I am free to play with the computer.   :)
[06:22] <tawm> is there an advantage to using rsync to backup a hard drive over raid 1?
[06:23] <lokvendra> join
[06:23] <Lostinspace_46_> Where do I change the increment of the volume control?
[06:24] <tawm> Lostinspace_46_: cli or gui?
[06:24] <Curly_Q> Tawm  RAID arrays is nice and not so nice. If you need to backup your array, then, do it before it crashes. If in the event of a failure, you can use data recovery software to recover the image.
[06:24] <bikcmp> lokvendra: Huh?
[06:24] <Baram> how can I fix this error: error while loading shared libraries: libglib-2.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[06:24] <Lostinspace_46_> Tamw gui
[06:25] <tawm> should be a speaker icon in the top right (by default) click it to bring up a slider
[06:25] <Dr_Willis> Lostinspace_46_:  i saw some gnome setting for that when i was exploreing th gconf_editor the other day
[06:25] <Lostinspace_46_> tawm I need to increment that slider
[06:25] <Dr_Willis> Lostinspace_46_:  at least i think it was the setting that did that.
[06:25] <Captain_Long> Ziroday: YOU THERE?
[06:26] <tawm> Lostinspace_46_: ah my apologies i missunderstood the question
[06:26] <greezmunkey> Baram: try "locate libglib-2.0.so.0" minus quotes to see if it is on your system
[06:26] <Lostinspace_46_> tawm NP
[06:26] <Captain_Long> That was not meant to be caps lock.
[06:26] <Curly_Q> But Tawm, the most important thing to remember is DO NOT WAIT to backup anything you install or depend upon as a Systems Administrator. Bad mistake.
[06:27] <Baram> greezmunkey yeah, it's there, in /lib where one would expect it to be
[06:27] <greezmunkey> Baram: what generated the eror?
[06:27] <tawm> Curly_Q: no data is in danger. its a little side project. i'm trying to learn different techniques and i was wondering which to push for
[06:27] <Baram> greezmunkey a compiler
[06:27] <Lostinspace_46_> I think I have the wrong xchat loaded
[06:28] <Baram> greezmunkey it worked before my HD died, recovered most of the system, but now this part won't work
[06:28] <tawm> Curly_Q: its a little media server that i'll hook up to my tv
[06:28] <In_n_Out> Hello everybody...Downloaded ubuntu 9.10 on my open suse desktop. I want to copy the ISO Image on a USB. Is there any link available that I can read and learn
[06:28] <greezmunkey> Baram: missing a symlink somewhere maybe?
[06:28] <Captain_Long> Hmm. Maybe you guys can help?
[06:28] <studentz> baram which one gnu utils or do you have something different?
[06:28] <Curly_Q> My only good advice to you Tawm is to create an IMAGE file of your hard drive and if you do something stupid or just an honest mistake, you have all of the data.
[06:29] <kn100> How do I compile from source
[06:29] <Baram> greezmunkey it's a symlink like it should be, and the file it points to is there...
[06:29] <Lostinspace_46_> hmm this xchat is in the repos, but I want the old one
[06:29] <In_n_Out> I am new to this and use my desktop only for mails & openoffice
[06:29] <Captain_Long> Following instructions here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx with ziroday's assistance, I have managed to get the wireless network to acknowledge its own existencde. To all appearances, I am connected, with a good handful of bars. Yet, I cannot load any web page.
[06:30] <kn100> ping me
[06:30] <greezmunkey> Baram: Maybe an error in the makefile?
[06:30] <Baram> studentz it's a compiler for the language my company made (their own language) but it uses gcc for it's core, build-essentials should be all I need...
[06:30] <zmjblokh> kn100: pong
[06:30] <Baram> greezmunkey makefie hasn't changed in years
[06:30] <Lostinspace_46_> tawm Rewestersys?
[06:30] <Lostinspace_46_> Remastersys
[06:30] <Baram> greezmunkey and works fine on the live servers, just not on my home dev server
[06:30] <Curly_Q> Just make BACKUPS BEFORE you make changes.
[06:31] <greezmunkey> Baram: doesn'
[06:31] <studentz> kn100 open file Title "readme" usually ./configure  next  make finally  sudo   makeinstall
[06:31] <greezmunkey> Baram: does that process generate a logfile? I'm sure you thought of that/
[06:32] <kn100> studentz, that simple?
[06:32] <Curly_Q> Do I have an AMEN on that?
[06:32] <kn100> studentz, I mean the kernel
[06:32] <tawm> Lostinspace_46_ / Curly_Q: just looking to protect media files from hardware failure. I have the system files backed up.
[06:32] <Baram> greezmunkey that error is what's in the log
[06:32] <Lostinspace_46_> tawm Oh..ok
[06:32] <Lostinspace_46_> where do I get the old xchat?
[06:33] <Captain_Long> Nothing?
[06:33] <Curly_Q> Tawm that is the best thing you could have done. Always backup. Even if it is a chmod or anything.
[06:34] <tawm> do either of you know how taxing a software raid 1 is on a system? (core 2 duo ~3ghz)
[06:35] <greezmunkey> Baram: does the compiler sucessfully locate other libraries?
[06:35] <Baram> greezmunkey I think I know what it is... i knew there was something I needed but forgot (been years since I had to rebuild), think it's ia32-libs that's missing
[06:35] <tawm> the most taxing thing the system is gonna do is watch hd media content
[06:35] <Baram> gonna try once these updates are done
[06:36] <studentz> For the kernel I used do it with Arch Linux they have a very nice guide, I never try with Ubuntu. Good luck :)
[06:36] <greezmunkey> Baram: you know more about it than I :) I still paste commands from here!
[06:36] <Curly_Q> Tawm have you tried VLC video player?
[06:36] <greezmunkey> heh
[06:37] <tawm> Curly_Q: yeah i have vlc and boxee setup on the box
[06:37] <Baram> greezmunkey after spending a week trying to recover a failed HD (never again will I buy WD) my brain is about shot :P
[06:37] <Curly_Q> Tawm what is your issue then?
[06:37] <Baram> greezmunkey turns out ddrescue on a 2TB drive takes a little while
[06:37] <tawm> just trying to figure out the best way to keep the media files safe from a hard drive failure
[06:37] <greezmunkey> Baram: I would think so!
[06:38] <Baram> 3000kB/s
[06:38] <randomusr_> hello
[06:38] <greezmunkey> Baram: I assume that was a sata drive that failed.
[06:38] <randomusr_> what's a decent chat program?
[06:38] <Curly_Q> Baram any Tera Byte drive will take a long time without sufficient RAM.
[06:38] <Baram> greezmunkey yeah, the WD 2TB caviar green, 63days after I bought it
[06:38] <randomusr_> that cover msn and yahoo
[06:38] <Curly_Q> Also the BIOS settings or compatibility.
[06:39] <greezmunkey> Baram: I've heard similar horror stories, esp the 1.5TB drives.
[06:39] <Baram> yeah, I should have thought of a temporary increase in RAM... oh well, it's basically done now
[06:39] <switch10_> I just had a WD green fail on me too, only 1 month old...
[06:39] <Baram> my samsung spinpoint F1's have been running non-stop for almost a year and still in perfect condition, I'm sticking with samsung from now on :P
[06:39] <tawm> from what i've seen at work any drive above 1tb has a pretty high failure rate
[06:39] <W43372> I can't get Ubuntu to mount my windows network.
[06:39] <tawm> even the 1tbs are pretty bad
[06:39] <greezmunkey> W43372: where did you go?
[06:40] <Curly_Q> Greezmonkey I have a 1.5 TB HD and it works just fine with Windows but it hangs and crashes with a Windows Search engine. That is stupid but I know why, it is the buffer overflow.
[06:40] <Baram> I haven't had issues with samsung discs, and since I live in Korea I can get excellent service if I do have a problem
[06:40] <Curly_Q> Baram try increasing your SWAP file or memory.
[06:41] <greezmunkey> Curly_Q: I was jazzed to buy a couple until I started hearing the foobar about them.
[06:41] <switch10_> W43372:  are you trying to mount a windows partition?
[06:41] <Baram> curly_q it's done now, or done enough that I could recover 90% of what was lost since the last backup, just had to reinstall the OS since some of the system files got corrupted
[06:41] <Curly_Q> With Windows it is called:   "Contiguous Memory" which is the same as SWAP.
[06:41] <switch10_> W43372: or a network drive?
[06:41] <W43372> switch10 no, I'm trying to access the shared folder on my windows box. it throws up the error 'failed to revtrieve share list from server when I click on the workgroup
[06:42] <W43372> greezmunkey, check your PM
[06:43] <Baram> greezmunkey yup, that was it, forgot to put in ia32-libs
[06:43] <Curly_Q> Baram please listen to me. You do not have to re-install any OS at all. All you need to do is replace the IMAGE component of the disk. That is quick and simple.
[06:44] <Baram> curly_q good to know, but I already did it :P
[06:45] <Curly_Q> Baram if you did it then you would not be asking questions here. Sorry to say that.
[06:46] <Curly_Q> Baram I work as a Scientist collecting not only data but also saving hard drives that fail and recouping the data on them.
[06:46] <AK> I am getting no sound after adding options snd-hda-intel model=auto in /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf file
[06:47] <Baram> curly_q wish you were around a few days ago when it died, was a learning process for me :P
[06:47] <AK>  I am getting no sound after adding options snd-hda-intel model=auto in /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf file
[06:47] <greezmunkey> Baram: you da man
[06:47] <Curly_Q> Data is Data. It is a magnetic media issue and not a Linux or Unix or Windows issue. It is a material hard drive issue.
[06:48] <Curly_Q> Baram, I can recover your data from your hard drive.
[06:48] <AK>  I am getting no sound after adding options snd-hda-intel model=auto in /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf file at my dell machine
[06:48] <AK> could you please help me out
[06:49] <Baram> curly_q what do you use for recovery?  I tried a few things and only ddrescue did much of anything for me
[06:49] <Curly_Q> DDrescue is OK but there are other means to do this.
[06:50] <shayne> i have a problem with ubuntu that it wont let me sign in as su
[06:50] <Curly_Q> I lose money when I give away my Technical Secrets.
[06:50] <Dr_Willis> shayne:  you use 'sudo' not 'su'
[06:51] <shayne> Dr_Willis: ive tried all the superuser or whatever you call it usernames.
[06:51] <zwalker_huj> :-) sudo su
[06:51] <Curly_Q> Especially when a sum of $10,000.00 data recover for a hard drive is what I make.
[06:51] <Dr_Willis> shayne:  only the first initially made user has 'sudo rights'
[06:52] <shayne> Dr_Willis: i am that user and it still wont let me.
[06:53] <crypt-0> Curly_Q, you mean replacing the logic board on a fried disk or moving the platters to a new drive....there are no secrets.
[06:53] <Curly_Q> I don't work for free. I earned my rights to charge big bucks to recover data.
[06:53] <Dr_Willis> shayne:  then you broke somthing.. or are doing somthing wrong.
[06:53] <sonu> hye i need to adjust my screen resolution. could you please tell me command to lauch the display manager, as i can't since my menu laucher is get hidden behind the screen visible area
[06:53] <thunderbolt> So, I accidentally ran grub-install against a partition instead of the entire device. It seems to have not done anything (erroring out with a "can't read image file...", forgot the exact phrase) Is there any way to make sure it didn't overwrite anything on the desk, or if it did, to revert that?
[06:53] <Dr_Willis> Curly_Q:  you got a dust free clean room in the basement. :)
[06:53] <crypt-0> Curly_Q, this is a *free* support channel.
[06:54] <Curly_Q> Crypt-0 that is a very good question. I congratulate you on that question. You are in the ballpark.
[06:54] <histo> thunderbolt: it just installed boot images on the parittions but if it didn't modify the MBR no harm done
[06:54] <shayne> Dr_Willis: go fuck yourself, you dont know anything about helping people you fucking bastard. dont try to help people if you dont understand their problem in the first place
[06:54] <thunderbolt> histo: It didn't. Okay, sounds good. Thank you!
[06:54] <Dr_Willis> shayne:  so much for anyone else trying to help you i imagine ... goodbye
[06:54] <chatrat> ciao a tutti
[06:55] <histo> thunderbolt: wait did you install it to the boot parition?
[06:55] <Lostinspace_46> I've looked around, and I can't find where to set the increments for my volume control.
[06:55] <crypt-0> Curly_Q, furthermore the same convention that uses ATA wipe can also recover bad sectors
[06:55] <histo> Lostinspace_46: I just did that let me think
[06:56] <Lostinspace_46> histo, Take your time.
[06:56] <studentz> sonu gnome-display-properties
[06:56] <histo> Lostinspace_46: just trying to remember are you using gnomes volume control?
[06:56] <Curly_Q> Dr Willis That is a very good question. I will share with you a tip of knowledge. You can get an old 50 or 100 gallon fish tank and cut holes in the plastic walls. Apoxy rubber gloves to it and put a HEPA FILTER to the box and you have a CLEAN ROOM. From that bit of info, you are golden. :)
[06:56] <thunderbolt> histo: I did afterwards, but that was to fix some Windows software killing the old grub2 stuff in the MBR.
[06:57] <Lostinspace_46> histo, You mean the slider?
[06:57] <chatrat> list
[06:57] <histo> Lostinspace_46: yes in gnome your not running a different volume control or xubuntu or anythign right?
[06:58] <Lostinspace_46> histo, Nope just normal slider.
[06:58] <histo> Lostinspace_46: using gconf apps/gnome_settings_daemon/volume_step
[06:58] <crypt-0> heh i know someone who used an old printer as a clean room :)
[06:58] <histo> Lostinspace_46: gconf-editor
[06:58] <Curly_Q> Crypt-0 you are funny.   :)
[06:59] <Lostinspace_46> histo, Thank you, I will go try tthat.
[06:59] <topland> how to set wifi on ubuntu
[06:59] <histo> Lostinspace_46: have you used gconf-editor before?
[06:59] <histo> topland: use the network manager up by the clock
[06:59] <Lostinspace_46> histo, No.
[06:59] <oliver_> Hi, I was in the middle of downloading frostwire when my computer froze. Now I can not use my synoptic manager.
[06:59] <oliver_> Can anyone help?
[07:00] <histo> Lostinspace_46: hit alt+f2 and type in gconf-editor then navigate to apps > gnome settings daemon  you will see volume step ont he right default is 6 or 9 i believe.
[07:00] <Curly_Q> Oliver check first your RAM settings and your cache settings.
[07:00] <histo> oliver_: what error do you get with synaptic?
[07:00] <topland> first i was using windos7 my wifi is working on it but now i change to ubuntu and wifi is stop
[07:00] <oliver_> Ok one sec and I will tell you the error message.
[07:00] <Lostinspace_46> histo, Thank you kindly, sir.  Muchly appreciated!
[07:01] <histo> topland: what type of wifi card do you ahve?
[07:01] <histo> Lostinspace_46: np
[07:01] <Curly_Q> Topland use apt-get update and see if that works.
[07:01] <oliver_> E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[07:01] <oliver_> E: _cache->open() failed, please report.
[07:01] <topland> i got atheros wifi card
[07:01] <oliver_> That's what it says
[07:01] <histo> oliver_: open a terminal and sudo dpkg --configure -a
[07:01] <oliver_> Ok I will try that one sec
[07:01] <Curly_Q> Atheros is a very good CARD.
[07:02] <Curly_Q> Topland is your C
[07:02] <hosomaki> good morning
[07:02] <histo> topland: Do you know what chipset your wifi card uses?
[07:02] <aetaric> hey, 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_Q> Topland is your Atheros card a PCMCIA card?
[07:02] <histo> aetaric: did you mount the drive?
[07:03] <histo> !fstab | aetaric
[07:03] <aetaric> histo: ... the drive isn't in /dev fstab won't help me.
[07:03] <histo> Curly_Q: oh he already said what type of card?
[07:03] <ryanc_> Hey, I'm on the Lucid beta, and I installed xfce4, how do I log in to that instead of gnome/
[07:03] <oliver_> Ok thank you it worked now I have a broken package on my computer and am trying to locate it.
[07:03] <aetaric> ryanc_: #ubuntu+1
[07:03] <histo> topland: System > administration > hardware drivers
[07:03] <Curly_Q> Histo sorry I didnt see it when I was talking with someone else.
[07:04] <histo> !lucid > ryanc_
[07:04] <ZenMasta_> need some help installing pdo and pdo_mysql i get a message sh: phpsize not found
[07:04] <ryanc_> okay
[07:04] <histo> !info pdo
[07:05] <Curly_Q> Those 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 do
[07:05] <histo> ZenMasta_: I was just trying to figure otu what pdo is and if its availible in the repos
[07:06] <ZenMasta_> oh, it has something to do with web servers
[07:06] <ZenMasta_> I've been trying to follow various guides on the web and some mention getting the error, but no solution
[07:06] <histo> ZenMasta_: I gathered that do you have a website or how are you trying to install it?
[07:06] <ZenMasta_> sudo pecl install pdo
[07:07] <aetaric> ZenMasta_: server support is in #ubuntu-server
[07:07] <ZenMasta_> thanks I'll try that
[07:07] <histo> ZenMasta_: hold up i'm checking something
[07:07] <ZenMasta_> k
[07:07] <histo> aetaric: not really a server question he's just trying to install a package.
[07:08] <ZenMasta_> brb 1 min
[07:09] <themec> could somebody tell me how i would change my hosts file in ubuntu?
[07:09] <Lostinspace_46> histo, Yes! Much better. Thanks again.
[07:09] <Curly_Q> Using a PCMCIA card on a laptop is great.
[07:09] <Dr_Willis> themec:  its a text file.. edit it as root.. MAKE A BACKUP
[07:09] <aetaric> histo: the package is "server" related and therefore belongs in #ubuntu-server
[07:09] <histo> ZenMasta_: when did you get the error installing pdo or pdo_mysql?
[07:10] <ZykoticK9> themec, one option would be to run "gksu gedit /etc/hosts"
[07:10] <ZykoticK9> themec, but Dr_Willis backup suggestion is good council
[07:10] <histo> aetaric: true that I guess
[07:10] <ZenMasta_> hiso haven't tried pdo_mysql yet so just pdo
[07:11] <ZenMasta_> I just assumed I should install in sequence
[07:11] <histo> ZenMasta_: I'm in #ubuntu-server to help you further
[07:11] <ZenMasta_> ok
[07:13] <cwp> hello
[07:14] <magger> how can i find and mount a harddrive from a live cd in a shell?
[07:14] <cwp> ???
[07:14] <Curly_Q> Dr Willis most of the problems here on this channel has to do with making BACKUPS. Most people ask why and how to do it.
[07:15] <voss749> what sort of shell?
[07:15] <cwp> ?
[07:15] <cwp> ?
[07:15] <cwp> ?
[07:15] <FloodBot3> cwp: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[07:15] <magger> just a terminal in knnopix
[07:15] <traz1> evolution is asking for a keyring password when I send mail, what does this mean?
[07:16] <cwp> what is that
[07:16] <Dr_Willis> Curly_Q:  dont forget to backup your backups.. :)
[07:16] <cwp> -q
[07:16] <sine_> how do i combine binary files please i.e me1.mp3+me2.mp3
[07:16] <sine_> is it cat
[07:16] <kermit> sine_: mp3wrap
[07:16] <sine_> no i can do it like binary join
[07:16] <kermit> sine_: but cat will work for real mp3 files.. mp3wrap is designed to work with tagged ones.
[07:17] <sine_> dos was cp /b *.mp3
[07:17] <Church> you can with cat. but be careful if file format isn't exactly made for binary concatenation and has clearly marked beginning/end
[07:17] <Curly_Q> Dr 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.    :)
[07:18] <ZenMasta_> any idea what would cause wireless networks to keep dropping?
[07:18] <Curly_Q> ZenMasta      Signal Strength and Encryption.
[07:18] <crypt-0> good lord, i actually read everything Curly_Q said...then i realized there was /IGNORE
[07:18] <Dr_Willis> sine_:  use the 'cat' command
[07:18] <Dr_Willis> sine_:  cat foo bar > foobar
[07:18] <voss749> In linux systems you back up documents photos and videos, music etc everything else is pretty much reinstallable
[07:19] <ZenMasta_> Curly_Q yeah you'd think except I'm literally 2 feet from the router.... and when I boot to windows it never drops
[07:19] <sine_> it does not delete the source files does it ?
[07:19] <Dr_Willis> sine_:  bash basics..  no.
[07:19] <Dr_Willis> cat foo > bar    copies foo to bar
[07:19] <banshee_> Howcome it seems that my video settings don't save? (Using Nvidia X Server Settings)
[07:19] <paven> traz1: 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] <voss749> zenmasta what kind of nic?
[07:20] <Dr_Willis> banshee_:  you may need to run the nvidia-settings tool as root via gksudo nvidia-settings
[07:20] <ZenMasta_> integrated probably intel
[07:20] <Curly_Q> ZenMasta, are you doing a:  http://www.192.168.*.*       ?
[07:20] <ZenMasta_> yeah just a regular home lan
[07:20] <traz1> is the gnome keyring pasword the same as my user password?
[07:20] <Curly_Q> I see.
[07:20] <histo> traz1: yes
[07:21] <Curly_Q> ZenMasta do you have physical access to the router?
[07:21] <ZenMasta_> yeah i'm connecte physically right now
[07:22] <Curly_Q> ZenMasta 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-0> Curly_Q, i use TELNET to get into my router sometimes OpenSSH_5.1p1 Debian-6ubuntu2, OpenSSL 0.9.8g 19 Oct 2007
[07:22] <ZenMasta_> Curly_Q yeah I'll pass I mostly use windows so not worth the hassle :/
[07:23] <Curly_Q> ZenMaster so what you are saying is you are doing this remotely?
[07:24] <ZenMasta_> no i dual boot my laptop
[07:24] <Curly_Q> ZenMaster 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?
[07:25] <Dr_Willis> banshee_:  save it to a differnt file, then copy it over to /etc/X11/xorg.conf   is one way
[07:25] <ZykoticK9> banshee_, 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 save
[07:25] <Dr_Willis> banshee_:  that issue has been fixed in 10.04 i belive. :) *yea*
[07:26] <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 netgear
[07:26] <banshee_> Sorry im new, you say files ,which files do i need to move
[07:26] <ZykoticK9> banshee_, there will be an xorg.conf but there may also be an xorg.conf.backup or similar
[07:27] <ZenMasta_> banshee_ * is a wild card, so xorg.conf* implies any file that begins with xorg.conf
[07:28] <magger> how can i find any hard drive in my computer from a terminal using a live cd??
[07:28] <Curly_Q> ZenMasta the http://192.168.0.***  Make sure that you want to go into that box.   Most boxes are at the:   .100       level
[07:28] <Dr_Willis> magger:  sudo fdisk -l
[07:28] <ZykoticK9> magger, "sudo fdisk -l" will list them
[07:28] <banshee_> ZykoticK9 Where should I move them, im new so i dont know what a safe location would be
[07:28] <magger> grandé
[07:28] <ZenMasta_> Curly_Q I'm logged in
[07:28] <ZykoticK9> banshee_, your home directory would be a good spot - would you like the terminal command to do it?
[07:29] <ZenMasta_> oh what do you know, it detects a new version of firmware :P
[07:29] <Curly_Q> ZenMasta was it a .100?
[07:29] <ZenMasta_> no, 1.1
[07:29] <banshee_> Would it be, sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf* /home?
[07:29] <Curly_Q> ZenMasta that is the Default Gateway.
[07:29] <ZykoticK9> banshee_, YES - but instead of using /home use ~ which will map to the correct /home/yourusername
[07:29] <_^mouse^_> sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf* ~
[07:29] <Curly_Q> Or 0.1
[07:30] <banshee_> k thanks let me ty
[07:30] <robertms> anybody 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 .100
[07:30] <banshee_> ZykoticK9 should it echo anything back to me?
[07:30] <ZykoticK9> banshee_, not if it was successful -- so no
[07:31] <crypt-0> ZenMasta_, arp -a
[07:31] <banshee_> ZykoticK9 ok I did it, now how do I fix that parsing error again?
[07:31] <ZenMasta_> 192.168.1.1
[07:31] <Curly_Q> ZenMaster anything goes with wireless. .anything works if you know the address.
[07:31] <ZykoticK9> banshee_, on command line - no news is good news
[07:31] <ZykoticK9> banshee_, "sudo nvidia-xconfig" first
[07:31] <crypt-0> ZenMasta_, that should show most devices on your network route will show your routing table
[07:31] <banshee_> k then?
[07:31] <ZykoticK9> banshee_, then "gksu nvidia-settings" and try to save
[07:32] <Curly_Q> Knowing 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't
[07:32] <ZenMasta_> on win all I see is 1.1 and back in ubuntu nothing shows
[07:33] <ZenMasta_> in the router it shows only my desktop being connected
[07:33] <pepper_haze> does anyone know how to get the video device name for a webcam and mic?
[07:33] <crypt-0> ZenMasta_, 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 hehe
[07:33] <ZykoticK9> banshee_, no not really - did the save work?
[07:34] <pepper_haze> I want to record a movie with my webcam and mic, with vlc, and don't know what to put in the video device name
[07:34] <Curly_Q> ZenMasta 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 ot
[07:34] <ZykoticK9> banshee_, 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 nope
[07:34] <crypt-0> ZenMasta_, IP could be down so that could have been a problem
[07:34] <ZykoticK9> banshee_, then it should have worked :)  I'd make the changes/settings you want, resave, then reboot to test
[07:35] <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 something
[07:35] <MrNaz> according to my router, my ubuntu boxis opening connections to some unknown IPs that are in dynamic ranges for ISPs around the world
[07:35] <Curly_Q> ZenMaster you need to be connected to an :  ACCESS POINT        .      period.
[07:35] <MrNaz> according to my router, my ubuntu boxis opening connections to some unknown IPs that are in dynamic ranges for ISPs around the world
[07:35] <MrNaz> oops
[07:35] <MrNaz> are there any known viruses for ubuntu in the wild?
[07:35] <FloodBot3> MrNaz: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[07:35] <exploit100> hi i am new here
[07:35] <banshee_> ZykoticK9 It says it needs a restart to X server to finish, do I restart my computer?
[07:35] <pepper_haze> does anyone know what to put in the device name of vlc?
[07:36] <ZykoticK9> banshee_, might be the easiest thing to do (really i believe you only need to restart Xorg)
[07:36] <exploit100> hello
[07:36] <Curly_Q> ZenMaster try this:     ping www.ccn.com
[07:36] <ZenMasta_> thanks anyway guys. its not a big deal. gonna hit the sack
[07:36] <ZenMasta_> peac
[07:36] <sweb> what packase i need for compile php extention
[07:36] <sweb> ?
[07:36] <\bMike\b> When 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] <exploit100> someone here use the wget?
[07:37] <Curly_Q> ZenMasta you are lazy. Stick around and fix your problem.
[07:37] <dreak> hello, i got a question..how to uninstall ubuntu on my hard drive and install the latest one 10.04 beta 2 ?
[07:37] <crypt-0> ZenMasta_, output of iwconfig?
[07:37] <ZenMasta_> no way, I've been working all night on other problems
[07:37] <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 junkies
[07:37] <Curly_Q> Do you think everyone here has not been working all night?
[07:37] <pepper_haze> I have a question, I want to record webcam and mic on vlc, but I don't know what to type in device name
[07:37] <crypt-0> ZenMasta_, get some sleep often the problem will become obvious to you :)
[07:38] <ZenMasta_> crypt-0 lo eth0 wmaster0 = no wireless extensions. wlan0=ssid mynetgear
[07:38] <magger> what type of file system will my freshly format by the ubuntu disc will be ?
[07:39] <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 really
[07:39] <Curly_Q> Crypt-0 Good suggestion but ZenMaster is lazy.
[07:39] <crypt-0> ZenMasta_, 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 gpedit
[07:40] <bullgard> yelp: "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] <magger> i didnt use the live cd.. what will be the default one then ?
[07:40] <Cerbero> i can listen output in GNU Denemo, i cant configure midi emulation. any solutions?
[07:40] <magger> i installed using the alternate cd
[07:40] <Cerbero> i cant*
[07:40] <willis__> hej
[07:41] <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 earlier
[07:41] <pepper_haze> Does anyone here know what to put in device selection for webcam and mic when recording with vlc?
[07:42] <crypt-0> ZenMasta_, IIRC you said it worked fine on win and not on ubuntu?
[07:42] <DarthPuff> if you guys had just installed a minimal system would you go with openbox or fluxbox?
[07:42] <Curly_Q> Permissions and Settings Zenmasta.
[07:43] <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 again
[07:45] <Curly_Q> ZenMasta   "Connections dropped"   Is only because there is no authentication or the port is incorrect.
[07:46] <crypt-0> connection to the AP has nothing to do with ports
[07:46] <Curly_Q> Yes it does.
[07:46] <Curly_Q> If the error message comes up.
[07:46] <crypt-0> enlighten me
[07:46] <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 luck
[07:47] <Curly_Q> Try the correct PORT.
[07:47] <ZenMasta_> how do you specify a port when you can't even discover the network?
[07:47] <crypt-0> Curly_Q, stop pulling stuff out of your ass
[07:47] <Curly_Q> ZenMasta if there are no wireless connections detected, then, you are just wasting your time.
[07:47] <ZenMasta_> i know that's what I'm saying
[07:48] <tsyj2007> hello
[07:48] <tsyj2007> i just try 10.04
[07:48] <magger> how do i find out wath filesystem type is a ahrd drive so i can mount it ?
[07:48] <tsyj2007> but it often not very well
[07:48] <diddy> Is there any way to watch .wmv movies on Ubuntu 64 bin other than to reinstall a 32 bit system?
[07:48] <Curly_Q> How in Hell can you connect to any access point if there are no wireless connections detected?
[07:49] <ZenMasta_> plugged in manually
[07:49] <pepper_haze> what is dev/video0
[07:49] <Curly_Q> Crypt-0 you owe me an apology. Stop that stuff.
[07:50] <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 connect
[07:50] <ZenMasta_> 100% certain the password is fine
[07:50] <crypt-0> Curly_Q, you owe me a few kilobits of network traffic
[07:52] <ZenMasta_> gonna reboot to win and see if it works
[07:52] <Curly_Q> ZenMasta, 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.
[07:53] <Curly_Q> Being 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 internet
[07:54] <ZenMasta_> internet access isn' the issue, its connecting to the wireless network
[07:54] <exploit100> any idea about wget ?
[07:54] <dr3mro> will canonical drop compiz in ubuntu 10.10 ??????????????????
[07:54] <magger> can some one help me to retreive my harddrive and edit that file up.. it ask me which file system time it is when i try to mount it. and im not even sure that its the right HD ??
[07:55] <Curly_Q> You are already connected to a wireless router.
[07:55] <ZenMasta_> technically yes I was... but by ethernet
[07:55] <ZenMasta_> the problem is connecting with my wireless card which is not happening
[07:55] <exploit100> none to reply me here?
[07:55] <keyvan> hey folks is there a way to create an alias for the root user? so if i try to do ssh keyvan@host it will log me in as root? (this is so i dont have to type keyvan@)
[07:55] <keyvan> rather root@
[07:56] <Dr_Willis> dr3mro:  they havent done so.. why would you think they would?
[07:56] <keyvan> exploit100:  whats ur issue?
[07:56] <crypt-0> exploit100, what about wget?
[07:56] <Curly_Q> I could sit here all day and find in my neighborhood thousands of wireless people unsuspecting an intrusion. I can hope that some stupid will let me intrude or let me in to their network. What a sad for them.
[07:56] <exploit100> yes wget
[07:56] <_^mouse^_> thousands? wow
[07:56] <exploit100> how many time can resume it?
[07:56] <ZykoticK9> dr3mro, Dr_Willis if 10.10 ends up with Gnome3 then I think the answer will be Yes to dropping compiz
[07:56] <_^mouse^_> i can only see about 6 from my house
[07:57] <ZenMasta_> yeah, well no such luck in my neighborhood. only a handful in my reach and they're all protected
[07:57] <keyvan> Curly_Q: its like knocking on someones door in your neighborhood… most will let you in on good faith. its up to you if ur going to be malicious
 Curly_Q, you owe me a few kilobits of network traffic
[07:57] <Dr_Willis> ZykoticK9:  from the last news i saw.. gnome 3 is delayed. but we will find out   more later this year i imageine
[07:58] <dr3mro> Dr_Willis, ZykoticK9 gnome-shell and compiz both are window managers :) can't run together
[07:58] <keyvan> unfortunately, not many people return that good faith anymore. "what a sad" for society at large.
[07:58] <Curly_Q> Keyfan thanks for that vote of confidence. I agree with you.
[07:58] <ZykoticK9> dr3mro, agreed - thus my comment ;)
[07:58] <keyvan> Curly_Q: ya i dont know what the conversation was about i just got here
[07:58] <Dr_Willis> dr3mro:  gnome-shell is not installed by default. and it sstill vbery much a work in progress from what ive seen
[07:58] <dr3mro> Dr_Willis, ZykoticK9 .. i hope gnome guys put the legacy gnome 2 panels into 3.0
[07:59] <Dr_Willis> Getting rid of the panels - i figure is a MAJOR thing they want to do.
[07:59] <keyvan> is there a way to create an alternate username that will actually login as root?
[07:59] <ZykoticK9> dr3mro, i just started playing with gnome-shell the other day, it's pretty cool once you get used to it
[07:59] <Curly_Q> Keyvan 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] <dr3mro> Dr_Willis,  I just installed it and give it a try its 6 month away and far from a win98 usability
[07:59] <Dr_Willis> keyvan:  ive seen it done.. but whats the point
[07:59] <DarthPuff> have any of you used a tiling wm like awesome or ratpoison? i am thinking about trying one
[07:59] <keyvan> Dr_Willis: its so i can ssh to my server under my currently logged in name on macbook (keyvan)
[07:59] <keyvan> rather than having to type root@host
[07:59] <Dr_Willis> dr3mro:  last news i saw a few days ago. said gnome-3 was getting pushed back. but only time will tell.
[07:59] <keyvan> i can just do ssh host.
[07:59] <dr3mro> ZykoticK9, but there is no desktop effects and why gnome tends to reinvent the wheel
[07:59] <crypt-0> Curly_Q, thats why there is youtube and google for kiddies like you
[08:00] <geekphreak> hola
[08:00] <Dr_Willis> keyvan:  its best to ssh in as a user, then sudo -s
[08:00] <geekphreak> Dr_Willis: howdy
[08:00] <Curly_Q> Crypt-0 you are so funny. Why do you think I am a script kiddie?
[08:00] <keyvan> Dr_Willis: trying to save keystrokes and commands… but i dont want to create an alias in my bashrc either
[08:00] <crypt-0> hi geekphreak
[08:00] <geekphreak> crypt-0: hello sir
[08:00] <ZykoticK9> dr3mro, my first reaction to gnome-shell was verging on disgust - but once i learned it, i adopted the "pretty cool" attitude
[08:00] <dr3mro> Dr_Willis, gnome guys had the best compiz intgration and every thing is fine why drop it and give me the most hted word deprecated
[08:00] <crypt-0> no i think your just trolling and been wrong way too many times to be helping here
[08:01] <Dr_Willis> keyvan:  thers Lazy, then theres and insecure. :)
[08:01] <keyvan> Dr_Willis: nobody will get a hold of this laptop lol :P
[08:01] <geekphreak> crypt-0: who?
[08:01] <Dr_Willis> You really shouldent be needing to be root for long time anyway.
[08:01] <sweb> what must i do for install packasge that compile php extentions
[08:01] <sweb> and apache modules !!! ???
[08:01] <keyvan> Dr_Willis: lol do you have a solution?
[08:01] <Dr_Willis> keyvan:  security is 40% 'practice'  where you do the proper methods to keep things secure.
[08:01] <keyvan> Dr_Willis: by practice you mean extra keys?
[08:01] <Dr_Willis> keyvan:  you could just allow root to ssh in. thats one way.
[08:02] <ZenMasta__> anychance ubuntu has a problem with WPA2?
[08:02] <magger> i need to find out what filesytem type a hard drive on my computer is so i can mount it, im running on a live cd and doesnt know what filetype the hard drive is
[08:02] <Dr_Willis> keyvan:  yes.
[08:02] <dr3mro> ZykoticK9, I wish it will be cool ... and by the way i don't understand why canonical is developing me menu and notification menu applets on a panel that will die in 6 moth
[08:02] <g0aliath> does anyone know of some good resources of bash scripting?
[08:02] <magger> i wou;ld really apreciate if come one could explain me for 2 min???
[08:02] <Dr_Willis> You shouldent really be needing to be root for a long period of time.
[08:02] <keyvan> Dr_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 root
[08:02] <geekphreak> crypt-0:  dont PM me
[08:02] <ZykoticK9> dr3mro, Lucid is supported for the next 3 years on desktop!
[08:02] <Dr_Willis> keyvan:  ssh takes an arument as what user to 'connect as'
[08:03] <ZenMasta__> magger gparted
[08:03] <Dr_Willis> keyvan:  you can set up sshd to allow root logging in.
[08:03] <crypt-0> ZenMasta_, which version of ubuntu?
[08:03] <dr3mro> ZykoticK9, who uses linux for 3 years with the same destro ... i wish i can install ubuntu daily :)
[08:03] <ZenMasta__> 9.10
[08:03] <trelane> I'm running ubuntu 10.4 Beta2, and while I'm not at the desktop my gnome panels will disappear (both top and bottom)  I've tried restarting gnome panel to no avail, and a search of the web has turned up empty.
[08:03] <keyvan> yes, 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 to
[08:03] <keyvan> prefixes*
[08:04] <geekphreak> !lucid | trelane
[08:04] <magger> ZenMasta__:  it replay me gtk warning cannot open displays:
[08:04] <keyvan> hence why i asked if i can create a "fake" user called keyvan on the remote host and have it actually login as root
[08:04] <tripelb> god+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_Q> KeyVan do you want to root copy and paste?
[08:04] <Dr_Willis> keyvan:   make an alias then.   or try the ssh configs -> http://www.linuxjournal.com/content/use-sshconfig-simplify-your-life
[08:04] <crypt-0> ZenMasta__, likely not then although it wouldnt hurt to disable wireless security to rule that out.
[08:04] <ZenMasta__> http://gparted.sourceforge.net/screenshots.php
[08:04] <keyvan> Dr_Willis:  cool thx, ssh configs sounds good
[08:04] <Curly_Q> KeyFan with SSH client?
[08:05] <Dr_Willis> a whole 5 keys.. egads.. ;)
[08:05] <ZenMasta__> crypt-0 i just changed it to wpa tkip rebooting now cause I was in windows
[08:05] <keyvan> Curly_Q: yes if you know how to copy the root user settings like the bash profile and everything
[08:05] <keyvan> then that would be good too
[08:05] <quizme> how do you remove an item from the Application->Internet-> drop down menu ?
[08:05] <keyvan> cuz its not good to be root anyway
[08:05] <Dr_Willis> keyvan:  link the users configs to /root/???configs??? is one way
[08:05] <dr3mro> The 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 10.10
[08:05] <Curly_Q> KeyVan what SSH client are you using?
[08:05] <keyvan> openssh
[08:05] <Curly_Q> Is it a GUI client?
[08:06] <keyvan> no, bash terminal
[08:06] <Dr_Willis> dr3mro:   we dont even know if gnome3 + gnome shell will be avail by the time 10.10 comes out.
[08:06] <Curly_Q> What in the world are you running?
[08:06] <keyvan> Curly_Q: im currently on a macbook. by the remote host im talking about is a Linode VPS in texas running ubuntu 9.10
[08:06] <keyvan> but*
[08:06] <Curly_Q> Are you trying to sudo -i from Windows to Linux?
[08:06] <keyvan> eww windows
[08:08] <Curly_Q> KeyVan its all about permissions.
[08:08] <ZenMasta__> crypt-0 seems to be okay now but who knows if it will drop again soon, will need some time to trust it again. so with that, gonna hit the sack and will revisit tomorrow :P
[08:08] <ZenMasta__> night all
[08:08] <keyvan> Curly_Q: i think you make yourself out to be smarter or more knowledgeable than you actually are. does that sound accurate?
[08:08] <DarthPuff> how do i check the version of an app with aptitude search?
[08:09] <dr3mro> Dr_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 shell
[08:09] <Tm_T> DarthPuff: typically gui application has in menu: help -> about
[08:09] <Curly_Q> KeyVan check this out:    sudo -i
[08:09] <DarthPuff> Tm_T: i'm 100% command line
[08:09] <Curly_Q> What file or directory do you want to ssh to?
[08:10] <tripelb> QUESTION: I have a computer that does not recognize the ethernet port. So I added an ethernet pci card. Same. Ubuntu 9.04 fresh install. On boot gnome window says Wired disconnected. And then unplugging and replugging gives me nothing at all. (It is the cable from cable (lol) that I am using here in this computer.
[08:10] <Tm_T> DarthPuff: app --version
[08:10] <DarthPuff> Tm_T: will that show the version in the repositories?
[08:11] <keyvan> Curly_Q: how old are you?
[08:11] <Curly_Q> KeyVan what directory do you want to SSH to?
[08:12] <sgh-i637> hola
[08:12] <Curly_Q> or file?
[08:12] <Tm_T> DarthPuff: nope, you need to use apt to see to repositories, or go to packages.ubuntu.com
[08:12] <sgh-i637>  nesecito ayuda
[08:12] <keyvan> Curly_Q: that's irrelevant. makes no difference
[08:12] <magger> once i mounted a hard drive to /mnt how can i acces it ?
[08:12] <Curly_Q> It does.
[08:12] <keyvan> Curly_Q: how so? what are you thinking
[08:12] <Curly_Q> If it is irrelevant, then you should not be asking questions here on this channel.
[08:12] <keyvan> Curly_Q: I dont think you understand my "issue"
[08:13] <keyvan> Curly_Q: because its a convenience thing.. not an actual problem.
[08:13] <sgh-i637> I have a ploblema hello, can anyone help
[08:13] <_^mouse^_> magger,  you mounted it to a directory, right? then just type cd <the mount directory> to access it
[08:13] <geekphreak> magger:  when you type ls /mnt , see those files?
[08:13] <Curly_Q> I know I had the same stupid problem. Don't you see?
[08:13] <keyvan> sgh-i637: dont ask to ask. just ask.
[08:13] <keyvan> Curly_Q: no, you didnt understand my situation. dont worry about it, its not a big deal
[08:14] <magger> so i should have mounted it to like /mnt/Afile iinstead of /mnt ?
[08:14] <geekphreak> sgh-i637: try asking
[08:14] <Dr_Willis> magger:  you could use /mnt/ but /mnt/SOMPLACE is proberly cleaner
[08:14] <Curly_Q> KeyVan I was on this channel for days and almost a month and there was only one person who knew what I was asking. Don't insult people who really want to help you.
[08:15] <DarthPuff> Tm_T: when i type man * it says command not found
[08:15] <DarthPuff> oops
[08:15] <keyvan> Curly_Q: Your first sentence does not logically lead into your second one. How old are you?
[08:15] <Dr_Willis> DarthPuff:  'man man' :)
[08:15] <DarthPuff> when i type man it says command not found. do i have to install man?
[08:15] <crypt-0> magger, df will show you all mounted filesystems
[08:15] <Dr_Willis> man is installed by default..   so it would be odd its missing.
[08:15] <DarthPuff> Dr_Willis: it is a minimal install... i guess the man didn't come with it?
[08:15] <Curly_Q> My age has nothing to do with your problem Keyvan.
[08:15] <Dr_Willis> DarthPuff:  that may be the case then
[08:16] <wolfie1> hello everyone =)
[08:16] <DarthPuff> Dr_Willis: if i install it now will all the manuals be there
[08:16] <sgh-i637> I have an information on a hard disk that formerly was / home, but now that I can not reinstall 9.10 qeu see the information on this hard drive had
[08:16] <keyvan> Curly_Q: i'm just curious, anyway if you want to keep talking to me, keep it to private messages lest we flood the channel.
[08:16] <Dr_Willis> DarthPuff:  i think theres several different packages that have diffrent 'parts' of themanuals.
[08:16] <wolfie1> in ubuntu netbook remix, there is no desktop, (how can I do that on normal ubuntu?)
[08:16] <DarthPuff> wolfie1: install netbook remix;P
[08:17] <DarthPuff> Dr_Willis: hmmmm
[08:17] <Curly_Q> KeyVan I am almost 55 years old. Does that help you?
[08:17] <keyvan> wolfie: sudo apt-get remove gdm will stop gnome from running the gui on startup
[08:17] <ardchoille> keyvan Curly_Q  Can that be taken to another channel please?
[08:17] <Dr_Willis> wolfie1:  I installed the ubuntu-netbook  stuff on my desktop :) but  under 9.xx having both on the same machine can confiuse things.
[08:17] <keyvan> err ubuntu, not gnome.
[08:17] <wolfie1> but I dont want netbook remix, I want my notmal ubuntu just with that fancy desktop that netbook remix has =)
[08:17] <Dr_Willis> wolfie1:  the 'desktop' is just handled by nautilus, the netbook edition dosent run that part of it.
[08:17] <DarthPuff> i've gone the other way
[08:17] <Dr_Willis> wolfie1:  thats the netbook-launcher tool i belive
[08:18] <DarthPuff> i want just a tiled wm... i tried twm but it was terrible
[08:18] <sgh-i637> I have an information on a hard disk that formerly was / home, but now that you reinstall 9.10 I can not see the information you had on this hard drive
[08:18] <ardchoille> wolfie1: the netbook launcher tool *is* the desktop in UNR
[08:18] <wolfie1> ooh!, thats what I wanted to know, it is on sinaptic? =)
[08:18] <Dr_Willis> wolfie1:  if you run it  on a norml gnome session - it just appears above the desktop i think
[08:18] <pingvinqq> anybody know a command, so i can restart a program?:D
[08:18] <DarthPuff> Dr_Willis: is there a way to use apt or aptitude to give me the version of apps in the repository?
[08:18] <pingvinqq> i need to restart a program , what is the command ???
[08:18] <Dr_Willis> pingvinqq:  depends on the program.   many take a signal to 'restart'
[08:18] <fcuk112> DarthPuff, have you tried pytyle?  i am using it with Arch and it works great.
[08:18] <DarthPuff> pingvinqq: find the command using top and kill it
[08:18] <Dr_Willis> DarthPuff:  proberly is.. but id have to check the apt manuals to figure out what it is.
[08:19] <Dr_Willis> !apt
[08:19] <DarthPuff> Dr_Willis: it tried to do that :p man not found
[08:19] <pingvinqq> yeah but im professionel music maker, and i need to restart lmms, but it dont works, if i type restart lmms
[08:19] <DarthPuff> fcuk112: have you tried ratpoison or awesome? those have caught my eye but i can't decide on one
[08:19] <keyvan> pingvinqq:  killall lmms
[08:19] <pingvinqq> thx :D
[08:19] <Dr_Willis> DarthPuff:  not the man pages.. there exists some apt  web sites/guides
[08:19] <sgh-i637> anyone can help I have an information on a hard drive that was previously / home, but now that you reinstall 9.10 I can not see the information we had on this hard drive
[08:19] <fcuk112> DarthPuff, sorry, can't say i have.
[08:20] <wolfie1> I just installed netbook-launcher, now what? x3
[08:20] <DarthPuff> Dr_Willis: :( i'm stuck in command line... i'll look it up on my phone
[08:20] <DarthPuff> fcuk112: it's a hard choice
[08:20] <geekphreak> sgh-i637: was /home encrypted?
[08:21] <pingvinqq> keyvan: it dont works, ifi type killall lmms, its the same if i just close the program .. i need to restart it :)
[08:21] <angelo_> ciao a tutti
[08:22] <angelo_> !list
[08:22] <DarthPuff> Dr_Willis: wow, just typing aptitude gave me a gui
[08:22] <sgh-i637> as I can decrypt
[08:22] <keyvan> pingvinqq: once its closed, you can restart it. i dont have enough information, sorry.
[08:22] <Dr_Willis> DarthPuff:  a text based curses gui...
[08:22] <wolfie1> got it, just had to kill nautilus x3
[08:22] <pingvinqq> keyvan: ok ,
[08:22] <DarthPuff> Dr_Willis: :p better than what i have
  as I can decrypt
[08:23] <fcuk112> DarthPuff, i think ratpoison and awesome are window managers - you can use pytyle with your existing WM.
[08:23] <Dr_Willis> DarthPuff:  i dont even know what your actual problem is/was :P
[08:24] <DarthPuff> fcuk112: i have no wm :)
[08:24] <DarthPuff> Dr_Willis: i'm deciding what wm to use
[08:24] <sgh-i637> anyone can help I have an information on a hard drive that was previously / home, but now that you reinstall 9.10 I can not see the information we had on this hard drive
[08:24] <LordKow> xfce
[08:24] <Dr_Willis> DarthPuff:  install one.. try it.. move on to the next..  and the problem is?
[08:24] <DarthPuff> Dr_Willis: i have a system with nothing but wireless access, nano, and irssi
[08:24] <ja660k> can the awk command run on a string not a file?
[08:24] <Dougdoug4> This outputs correctly but adds an entire spaced line after ( http://dpaste.com/181624/ ) e.g.

[08:24] <Dougdoug4> like that
[08:25] <Dr_Willis> ja660k:  yes. you could echo/pipe a string to it.. or use stdin.
[08:25] <DarthPuff> Dr_Willis: i'm trying to choose between ratpoison and awesome... but i need to know the version in the repository so i don't install outdated stuff. these two wm's aren't very mainstream.
[08:25] <Dougdoug4> OOPS
[08:25] <sgh-i637> anyone can help I have an information on a hard drive that was previously / home, but now that you reinstall 9.10 I can not see the information we had on this hard drive
[08:25] <Dougdoug4> wrong channel, my apologies
[08:25] <Dr_Willis> DarthPuff:

[08:25] <DarthPuff> !info awesome
[08:26] <Dr_Willis> DarthPuff:  like its going to kill you to just instll both of them?
[08:26] <DarthPuff> Dr_Willis: that ain't minimal!
[08:26] <bullgard> yelp: "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...
[08:26] <bullgard> ...advertises the share on the local network using mDNS." On computer 2 I have copied a file in ~/Public. On computer 3  Nautilus shows under 'Network' only a »Windows Network« of unknown type and no und no notification. Yesterday Avahi worked all right though, Why does this file transfer not work?
[08:26] <Dr_Willis> DarthPuff:  i perfer icewm, or jwm, or flvwm
[08:26] <ubuntu> helo.........
[08:26] <meowbuntu> hi how do you  check ptoper filename syntax in comandline.
[08:26] <LordKow> !info xfce4
[08:26] <LordKow> ^ ftw
[08:27] <DarthPuff> Dr_Willis: i was thinking openbox or fluxbox, but then i got the scent of something even more painstaking and difficult to use
[08:27] <Dr_Willis> 'minimal' a new buzzword  that really means very little. (pun!)
[08:27] <_^mouse^_> lol
[08:27] <ubuntu> can anyone see me...............      ???????????????
[08:27] <ardchoille> Dr_Willis: :)
[08:27] <ardchoille> ubuntu: yes
[08:27] <Dr_Willis> DarthPuff:  fluxbox + rox filer = a fairly complete  low footprint desktop.
[08:27] <ubuntu> ardchoille:  can you help me
[08:28] <fcuk112> DarthPuff, i am using LXDE.  but to be honest if i were using ubuntu and i had ok h/w i'd just go with gnome+compiz, it just looks better.
[08:28] <DarthPuff> Dr_Willis: i like fluxbox + thunar
[08:28] <ardchoille> ubuntu with what?
[08:28] <Dr_Willis> I cant stand thunar
[08:28] <DarthPuff> fcuk112: my hardwareisn't ok
[08:28] <ubuntu> trying to recover grub after windows install. can someone help ?/          $ sudo grub-install --root-directory=/media/disk-2 /dev/sda2grub-setup: warn: Attempting to install GRUB to a partition instead of the MBR.  This is a BAD idea.
[08:28] <fcuk112> DarthPuff, tried LXDE then?
[08:28] <ubuntu> ardchoille: ^
[08:28] <ardchoille> ubuntu: no idea, haven't touched a MS product in 9 years
[08:29] <Dr_Willis> ubuntu:  dont use 'sda2' use 'sda'
[08:29] <ubuntu> Dr_Willis:  my kubuntu is on sda2
[08:29] <DarthPuff> fcuk112: i have before
[08:29] <Dr_Willis> ubuntu:  the error message is saying that. :) basicaly
[08:29] <Dr_Willis> ubuntu:  yes.. but the MBR is on sda.. NOT sda2
[08:29] <DarthPuff> fcuk112: i'm really just bored and looking for something different.
[08:29] <bretteroo> openbox is great if you want a low footprint desktop
[08:29] <Dr_Willis> ubuntu:  sda2 = the 2nd filesystem.. 'sda' the disk itself.
[08:29] <sgh-i637> how to decode the information from my hard drive
[08:30] <ubuntu> Dr_Willis:  thanks :)
[08:30] <DarthPuff> bretteroo: i've tried flux but i can't find the difference between that and open
[08:30] <ubuntu> Dr_Willis:  it workds
[08:30] <DarthPuff> sgh-i637: was it encrypted?
[08:30] <Dr_Willis> ubuntu:  common mistake peopel do in several different   cases.
[08:30] <sgh-i637> anyone can help I have an information on a hard drive that was previously / home, but now that you reinstall 9.10 I can not see the information we had on this hard drive
[08:30] <ubuntu> Dr_Willis: hm
[08:30] <DarthPuff> sgh-i637: did you partition the disk when you installed again?
[08:30] <fcuk112> DarthPuff, try arch+lxde+slim+pytyle+xcompmgr.
[08:30] <ardchoille> DarthPuff: iirc, fluxbox has the slit (panel?) and openbox does not
[08:31] <Dr_Willis> sgh-i637:  if it wasent encrypted.. check ownership of the files/dirs
[08:31] <DarthPuff> ardchoille: open has the dock now :\
[08:31] <ardchoille> DarthPuff: It does? wow, been a while since I used it
[08:31] <DarthPuff> Dr_Willis: he may have installed 9.10 over his old system
[08:31] <DarthPuff> ardchoille: it's just what i have read
[08:31] <bretteroo> @DarthPuff it is all about preference, differences are minimal
[08:31] <Dr_Willis> !info flwm
[08:32] <DarthPuff> bretteroo: that is what i am thinking about ratpoison and awesome too
[08:32] <Dr_Willis> 164kB :)
[08:32] <sgh-i637> as ????? : (I am newbie
[08:32] <DarthPuff> Dr_Willis: wow that is tiny
[08:32] <DarthPuff> sgh-i637: when you went through the 9.10 installer did it ask to to do a guided partition of hte disk?
[08:32] <Dr_Willis> If theres a smaller.. i dont know of it.
[08:32] <LordKow> that is totally the flwm meta package
[08:33] <DarthPuff> Dr_Willis: i read about one a while ago that was just a few lines of code... i don't know what it does over just plain x though
[08:33] <Dr_Willis> LordKow:  if you say so..  i never noticed it work ing as a metapackage
[08:33] <meowbuntu> hi how do you  check proper filename syntax in comandline.
[08:33] <Dr_Willis> lets try it in 10.04
[08:33] <LordKow> Dr_Willis: upon further inspection, i retract my statement
[08:33] <meowbuntu> the file has spaces in it
[08:34] <ardchoille> meowbuntu: you need to escape a space by putting a \ in front of it
[08:34] <DarthPuff> sgh-i637: did you use the graphical installer for 9.10?
[08:34] <ardchoille> example: ls /path/my\ file
[08:34] <Redeuxx> how do I pipe wget's downloaded file to /dev/null instead of a physical file?
[08:34] <Dr_Willis> flwm + fltk ==> After this operation, 1,323kB of additional disk space will be used.
[08:34] <meowbuntu> ar
[08:35] <meowbuntu> ardchoille, really what about ()
[08:35] <ardchoille> meowbuntu: never seen that before
[08:35] <Dr_Willis> You can escape ( also.
[08:35] <ardchoille> ah
[08:35] <sgh-i637> what happened is that I had a pinto mounting "/" and / home but format and reinstall in / but you do not specify the / home and surprise when I start my missing files
[08:35] <Dr_Willis> try -->   file(    <TAB>   perhaps
[08:35] <ardchoille> I hate spaces in filenames
[08:36] <pingvinqq> what is the best editor to .sh files?:D
[08:36] <Dr_Willis> pingvinqq:  whatever text editor you like.
[08:36] <ardchoille> pingvinqq: any text editor should be fine
[08:36] <Dr_Willis> pingvinqq:  you may want one that has syntax highlighting  if you are doing scripting a lot
[08:36] <sgh-i637> do not install it manually in the
[08:36] <pingvinqq> Dr_Willis: yeah sure but, im tired of nano soo...
[08:36] <coz_> pingvinqq,  there is one names    Tea   its kinda nice   multiple format editor
[08:36] <Dr_Willis> pingvinqq:  nano is about as bottom of the barrel as you can get. it is worth while to learn vi
[08:37] <ardchoille> pingvinqq: vim and gedit have syntax highlighting, I'm sure others do too
[08:37] <pingvinqq> yeah . are gedit good?:)
[08:37] <Dr_Willis> pingvinqq:  i perfer geany
[08:37] <ardchoille> I use gedit for writing html, basc scripts, python.. just about everything
[08:37] <Dr_Willis> pingvinqq:  but learning vi  is Very worth while.
[08:37] <pingvinqq> vi?
[08:38] <Dr_Willis> !vi
[08:38] <LordKow> Redeuxx: save the file as /dev/null
[08:38] <pingvinqq> okay :D
[08:38] <crypt-0> pingvinqq, i prefer SciTE because i like its syntax highlighting, and how it shows subs and brackets as trees and the line number  but any is fine
[08:38] <DarthPuff> sgh-i637: how did you install 9.10? what is pinto? if you did a format and reinstall on / then your home directory and contents are long gone. / refers to the very top of the food chain
[08:38] <LordKow> Redeuxx: wget <file-url> -O /dev/null 2>&1
[08:38] <meowbuntu> drat i cant md5sum an iso file
[08:39] <coz_> meowbuntu,  why is that?
[08:39] <Dr_Willis> md5sum foo.iso
[08:39] <meowbuntu> coz_, it says no such file or directory but its in there
[08:39] <Redeuxx> LordKow, oh, thanks. I was making things more complicated than they were
[08:39] <Dr_Willis> meowbuntu:  use single quotes around the whole name..
[08:39] <coz_> meowbuntu,  how are you ateempting it?
[08:39] <ardchoille> meowbuntu: did you check case of the filename?
[08:40] <Dr_Willis> meowbuntu:  or ... rename it! :0
[08:40] <sgh-i637> I explain it
[08:40] <coz_> atempting rather
[08:40] <pingvinqq> but every time i save a .sh file, i cant find it?
[08:40] <ardchoille> pingvinqq: in nautilus?
[08:41] <pingvinqq> ardchoille: ye..
[08:41] <coz_> pingvinqq,  hit  ctrl+h  to show hidden files in nautilus
[08:41] <ardchoille> pingvinqq: ctrl+h will show hidden files
[08:41] <pingvinqq> okay :D
[08:41] <Dr_Willis> pingvinqq:  pay attention to where you are saveing things.. learn shell basics.
[08:41] <tripelb> meowbuntu, there's some way of looking at an iso file as-if it is on a drive. That should do it if there isnt another way.
[08:41] <coz_> tripelb,  gmountiso
[08:42] <pingvinqq> thx !!! everybody i can find it :DD
[08:42] <tripelb> coz_ thanks
[08:42] <sgh-i637> my drive is 120 gb partition on the 20gb and 97gb,
[08:42] <sgh-i637> in the 19 gb install ubuntu mount point /, and the 97gb / home
[08:43] <meowbuntu> ok now where is the md5sum for this file http://www.dpup.org/test/dpup484beta4-2.6.30.5/
[08:43] <tripelb> still newbie to ubuntu. I want to burn a movie to a cd, with Brasero, do I choose "Data Project" (audio, video diskcopy, burnimage - aer the other choices)
[08:44] <DarthPuff> !info ratpoison
[08:44] <pingvinqq> why cant i open the .sh file?:(
[08:44] <DarthPuff> !info awesome
[08:44] <tripelb> meowbuntu, how would we know? Where did you get it from?
[08:45] <magger> can some one tell me if they have a /etc/X11/xorg.conf under ubuntu 9.10 pls that would help alot???
[08:45] <coz_> meowbuntu,  well the  image you linked to is a .iso
[08:45] <meowbuntu> tripelb, shesh read man the link where is the md5sum for this file http://www.dpup.org/test/dpup484beta4-2.6.30.5/
[08:45] <DarthPuff> magger: i didn't have one when i installed
[08:45] <Dr_Willis> pingvinqq:  be clear and concice in what you mean.. 'gedit whatever.sh' will open  a  text file
[08:45] <coz_> meowbuntu,  dpup-484beta4-2.6.30.5.iso
[08:45] <DarthPuff> magger: it's somewhere else... you can put one there though
[08:46] <sgh-i637> 97gb partition now I can not see anything because when you reinstall put the mount point "/" and "/ home" together, worse if I said I have used space in that partition
[08:46] <DarthPuff> magger: if you do the dpkg thing and remake it with root it will be in roots home directory. you can then copy it on over.
[08:46] <meowbuntu> coz_, usually there is a checksum on the internet where the file is downloaded from.
[08:46] <sgh-i637> I think that is encrypted
[08:46] <mauri> i ahve buyed scanner cannor lite 100 but kubuntu does not recognize it.....may someone help me please?
[08:46] <magger> darn
[08:46] <pingvinqq> Dr_Willis: yeah .. but if i open the .sh file with gksu , and after this type: ./file.sh and after this type chmod 755 file.sh it dont open ?
[08:46] <magger> im in so much toruble right now
[08:46] <DarthPuff> magger: why do?
[08:46] <DarthPuff> why so*?
[08:47] <Dr_Willis> pingvinqq:  if you want to make a script executable you 'chmod +x whatever.sh' then you can run it with the proper path to the script.
[08:47] <magger> i have this isntall that wont boot that i installed from an alternate version
[08:47] <DarthPuff> won't boot?
[08:47] <meowbuntu> coz_, are you forgetting that to check if the downloaded worked you need a checksum posted on the web with it. to check the .iso download
[08:47] <coz_> meowbuntu,  yeah there is on there also the second  dpup down is the checksum
[08:47] <DarthPuff> magger: is it booted up at a command prompt?
[08:47] <magger> the screen start flikering
[08:47] <meowbuntu> oh it necer says that
[08:47] <magger> im on a live cd
[08:47] <meowbuntu> thanks coz_
[08:47] <pingvinqq> Dr_Willis: okay ..=
[08:47] <Dr_Willis> pingvinqq:   also scripts normally start with #!/bin/sh or #!/bin/bash  or others depending on the language of the script
[08:47] <coz_> meowbuntu,    cab1bfc44738446c32efbb9e68166d6c
[08:48] <DarthPuff> magger: your first step is to find out what error you are getting.
[08:48] <Dr_Willis> pingvinqq:  bash scripting basics. :)   you may want to check out some bash scripting guides.
[08:48] <pingvinqq> Dr_Willis: yeah i know but i need to do, so i just can doubble click on the "icon" .. so i open .. (dont care if it open in the background)
[08:49] <Dr_Willis> set its properties to open in a terminal.. test it by running it in a terminal first.

[08:49] <ravibn> Hi! I need help with upgrading Gnome player on karmic 9.10. I hv already installed version 0.9. I found a newer version from  http://launchpadlibrarian.net/42163759/gnome-media-player-0.1.2.tar.gz how do i do this?
[08:49] <sgh-i637> m
[08:49] <Dr_Willis> pingvinqq:  or make a launcher that runs 'xterm -e /path/to/the/script.sh'
[08:49] <Guest9588> quit
[08:50] <pingvinqq> Dr_Willis: what is this?:)
[08:50] <Dr_Willis> pingvinqq:  you need to be more clear in what you are doing and exactly what is going on.
[08:50] <keyvan> pingvinqq: man xterm and read about -e
[08:51] <keyvan> or do we not give advice like this in #ubuntu?
[08:51] <pingvinqq> okay, i can open the file now, if i open it with gksu , and after this type chmod 667 file.sh and after this type ./file.sh
[08:51] <keyvan> ubuntu is making linux "too easy" in my opinion, heh
[08:51] <Dr_Willis> pingvinqq:  the term 'open' means very little...  if you mean RUN it.. then say run.. if you mean edit .. then say edit
[08:51] <pingvinqq> Dr_Willis: sry i mean not gksu,FAIL !! i mean root terminal
[08:52] <ddvlad> hi, if i install ubuntu 10.04 beta 2 now, how hard will it be to upgrade to the final release? it's not my first contact with linux, it's just the first time i'm trying ubuntu
[08:52] <pingvinqq> Dr_Willis: ok?
[08:52] <Dr_Willis> pingvinqq:  open a terminal,  do 'chmod +x whatever.sh'   to make it executable..   then run it with ./whatever.sh    does that work?
[08:52] <sgh-i637> someone speaks Spanish
[08:52] <sgh-i637> someone speaks Spanish?
[08:52] <Dr_Willis> pingvinqq:  i dont understand your ;opening it' then  setting the modes.. You have to set the mode BEFOR you run the thing
[08:52] <pingvinqq> Dr_Willis: i try 2 sec:D
[08:53] <nomad77> !es > sgh-i637
[08:55] <pingvinqq> Dr_Willis: it dont works before i set the mod , like chmod ..
[08:55] <Dr_Willis> pingvinqq:  err.. that makes sence.. if you want a executable script you need to make it 'executable'
[08:56] <Dr_Willis> echo 'gedit' > startgedit.sh               then 'chmod +x startgedit.sh'     then run ./startgedit.sh
[08:56]  * Dr_Willis cheated and dident use a #!/bin/sh at the start :) im lazy
[08:56] <pingvinqq> ye.. i know :), but im not SO good at linux, i still learning, so what its a executable script?..
[08:56] <Dr_Willis> pingvinqq:  dident i mention some scripting tutoials earlier?
[08:56] <Dr_Willis> pingvinqq:  thats what the chmod command is doing...

[08:57] <pingvinqq> Dr_Willis: :D , but i dont understand what is was..?

[08:58] <Dr_Willis> !abs
[08:58] <pingvinqq> Dr_Willis: okay .. my question is: can i do so i can doubble-click on the "icon" and then it open?:)
[08:58] <prak> does anyone here know how to get vmware folder sharing working for ubuntu 9.10 (I have found http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=846691 to be the closest, but still have trouble getting it working)?
[08:59] <geekphreak> pingvinqq:  read :)
[08:59] <Dr_Willis> pingvinqq:  make a script that works. make a launcher that launches the script.
[08:59] <pingvinqq> geekphreak: ok ..
[08:59] <Dr_Willis> thats better way then just double clicking on whatever.sh
[08:59] <pingvinqq> Dr_Willis: i know.. but i will do so i just can doubble-cllick on it ..
[09:00] <LordKow> r=4,w=2,x=1 took a while to learn
[09:00] <psycho_oreos> LordKow, then there's ugo (user group others) and suid bits, etc
[09:01] <LordKow> one step at a time :)
[09:01] <Dr_Willis> pingvinqq:  you seem to be doing somthing fundamentally wrong.. its  a 2 step process...
[09:01] <Dr_Willis> make script.. make it executable.. double click on it.
[09:02] <Dr_Willis> ie:   willis@cow:~$ echo 'gedit' > startgedit.sh
[09:02] <Dr_Willis> willis@cow:~$ chmod +x startgedit.sh
[09:02] <Dr_Willis> I double click on that stargedit.sh and it runs gedit
[09:02] <pingvinqq> Dr_Willis: yeas :D
[09:02] <Dr_Willis> ive no idea what you were trying to do with the gksud and stuff.
[09:03] <tripelb> still newbie to ubuntu. I want to burn a movie to a cd, with Brasero, do I choose "Data Project" (audio, video diskcopy, burnimage - aer the other choices)
[09:03] <wandernauta> Is there a netinst CD availible for Lucid Lynx?
[09:03] <wandernauta> tripelb: Video I guess.
[09:03] <bretteroo> are you just burning the movie as a backup or do you want it to play in a dvd player
[09:03] <nimrod10> tripelb, is that a divx movie ?
[09:04] <tripelb> nimrod10, wandernauta is an .avi
[09:04] <nimrod10> tripelb, if it is an avi you can burn it as data
[09:05] <airtonix> tripelb, i you want to play the movie on normal dvd players use devede, if you want to back it up or play it on a divx compatiable dvd player use data disc
[09:05] <airtonix> !info devede | tripelb
[09:07] <tripelb> ah nimrod10 airtonix I see. I want to play it on a computer. I'll burn the folder with the subs in it. Thanks. (it's a movie in Spanish) The Secret in their Eyes. Comes out next week in the big theaters. Won some big award.

[09:12] <DarthPuff> i decided on awesome

[09:13] <Masteredu> has no one the bug that i reported with the posts over me here?

OK AND THEN IT  played the movie DUBBED IN CHINESE which had been invisible in the nomal menu (which I had seen in windows)
[09:14] <Dr_Willis> tripelb:  its all about the codecs.. not the file extension
[09:14] <WizardOfOz> Dr_Willis: Sir!!
[09:14] <WizardOfOz> Ubuntu crashed my laptop!

[09:18] <keyvan> rewati: im sure if you google "how to play dvd ubuntu" you'll find the answer
[09:18] <Dr_Willis> !dvd
[09:18] <Dr_Willis> or read the wiki pages.
[09:19] <Dr_Willis> rewati:  and i think the command is --->    sudo sh  /usr/share/doc/libdvdread4/install-css.sh
[09:19] <Dr_Willis> at least that just worked for me
[09:19] <tripelb> Dr_Willis, yes the chroma was well different in the chinese one. How do I find out what codex it was using?
[09:20] <Dr_Willis> tripelb:  right click.. prperties.. look in the tabs
[09:20] <tripelb> reading more
[09:20] <Dr_Willis> all that dvd script did here was get the proper .deb from medibuntu :)
[09:21] <DarthPuff> Dr_Willis: i just installed awesome and nothing happens :( initx and startx are not found. if i want to install xorg do i just install that or do i install xorg-server?
[09:21] <Dr_Willis> DarthPuff:  no idea.   I dont bother with the minimnal and build up approach. I would think those window managers should Pull in the needed X packages.
[09:22] <Dr_Willis> !info xorg-server
[09:22] <DarthPuff> Dr_Willis: they did not :\
[09:22] <DarthPuff> !info xorg
[09:22] <DarthPuff> xorg it is
[09:22] <Dr_Willis> thres proberly a dozen other support packages as well..
[09:22] <DarthPuff> yeah, but that looks like a master file to pull in other files
[09:23] <coz_> DarthPuff,   http://www.actionshrimp.com/2009/02/installing-awesome-window-manager-on-ubuntu-intrepid/
[09:23] <coz_> DarthPuff,  i would guess ,,,even though old  some of the approach is still valid
[09:23] <DarthPuff> coz_: i saw that. the guy built it from scratch i think
[09:24] <coz_> DarthPuff,  right...
[09:24] <DarthPuff> coz_: it's in the repository now, but it didn't pull in x
[09:24]  * antivirtel is back (gone 00:05:11)
[09:24] <DarthPuff> how do i get x to install with just the intel driver?
[09:24] <DarthPuff> i don't need all these other packages
[09:24] <tripelb> rewati It's not so easy as it seems. There's something called Medibuntu and it's in the ubuntu community doc pages. BUT I had to follow the instructions in a --> post in ubuntu forums by old_gray_wolf who had several lists to paste into terminal. Then I could do everything. FYI.
[09:25] <coz_> DarthPuff,  I know several people who prefer xmonad over awsome  but I have never used either one
[09:26] <DarthPuff> coz_: i already installed awesome :p
[09:26] <coz_> DarthPuff,  ok  :)
[09:26] <DarthPuff> coz_: it just doesn't work because xorg isn't installed, but the darn thing is trying to pull in all sorts of video drivers
[09:27] <coz_> DarthPuff,  well my guess is you will need to install all of the pacakges for this to work properly   but again I have never trid
[09:27] <coz_> tried it
[09:27] <coz_> DarthPuff,  is this on top of default Ubuntu install?
[09:27] <DarthPuff> coz_: it's a minimal install
[09:27] <Dr_Willis> heh - if it was a default install.. he allready would of tried 'awsome' and given up on it.
[09:28] <coz_> DarthPuff,  ah ok
[09:28] <coz_> Dr_Willis,  :)
[09:28] <DarthPuff> coz_: ;) i selected the intel video drivers to be installed for xorg and it only pulled in the stuff above that... cut of 30 megs :D
[09:28] <coz_> DarthPuff,  cool
[09:28] <Dr_Willis> Now you got room for 10 more MP3's!

[09:44] <magger> how do i do that ?
[09:45] <DarthPuff> magger: and then type startx or initx to see what error you get
[09:45] <magger> i cant even log in so far
[09:45] <notdkw> edd: find / -name "*/lib/libstdc++.so.6
[09:45] <magger> what do i do to kill something
[09:45] <notdkw> "
[09:45] <notdkw> :)
[09:46] <DarthPuff> magger: when you push ctrl+alt+f2 you don't get a virtual console?
[09:46] <polak> po
[09:46] <edd> notdkw: it just stays like that ? should I change something in name?
[09:46] <notdkw> edd: Just like that, but add " at the end. I forgot that little bit.
[09:46] <magger> it stopped to blink for a min
[09:46] <magger> i could log in after pressing ctr alf f1
[09:47] <magger> or something
[09:47] <edd> kk thanks
[09:47] <notdkw> edd: dpkg --list | grep stdc will work also.
[09:47] <magger> fatal error no screen found DarthPuff
[09:48] <edd> i  libstdc++6                          4.3.2-1.1                The GNU Standard C++ Library v3
[09:48] <edd> it means i have version 4.3.2 right ?
[09:48] <edd> and this app requires 6
[09:48] <notdkw> edd: correct.
[09:48] <edd> ima need to update that
[09:49] <notdkw> edd: compiling something some source? always better practice to try and find a .deb instead. Helps with dependancies later.
[09:49] <edd> i installed this cccam server but now it wont run
[09:50] <DarthPuff> magger: sorry about that
[09:50] <DarthPuff> magger: no screens found?
[09:50] <magger> yes
[09:50] <DarthPuff> magger: awesome has some kind of command that closes your window when you scroll click or something
[09:50] <DarthPuff> magger: interesting
[09:50] <DarthPuff> magger: rename the xorg file and see what erro you get that way
[09:51] <tripelb> easier than bracero is this thing that came up when I put the blank disk in. cd-dvd creator. cool.
[09:53] <tripelb> the cd creator said I had 610 free on blank cd. I thought they had 700. could someone please explain that to me.
[09:53] <magger> same thing
[09:53] <magger> no screen found
[09:53] <DarthPuff> magger: when do you lsmod is the nv module running?
[09:53] <magger> xinit : no such file or directory(errno 2) unable to connect to x server
[09:54] <DarthPuff> magger: what about startx
[09:54] <edd> there's something funny going on
[09:54] <magger> statx is what i jsut done
[09:54] <Jadoza> I experience a bug sometimes. Let's say I have a window in the background highlihhted, and an aöways-on-top-window in front of it. If I click the title of the not-highlighted always-on-top window to move it away, the highlighted window will obey the cursor, and move. Not the one I just clicked on. If that makes any sense :D
[09:54] <edd> I try to install there libraries and they all depend on each other I need to download like tons of files
[09:55] <magger> it say screen found but none have a usable configuration
[09:55] <DarthPuff> magger: did you rename that xorg.conf?
[09:55] <magger> originaly there was none
[09:55] <magger> and yeah
[09:55] <magger> now its renamed

[09:56] <uxubuntu> Hello, 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.
[09:57] <DarthPuff> magger: hmmm
[09:57] <mbn_18> uxubuntu: u can always delete the .mozilla dir in your home directory

[09:57] <magger> (ee) chrome(0) no vlaid modes found
[09:58] <mbn_18> uxubuntu: dont forget to backup
[09:58] <DarthPuff> magger: as root
[09:58] <magger> i will try and tell you
[09:58] <tripelb> (my opinion only) two things, synaptic doesnt ever work. 2. dont update FF until Ubuntu puts it in the update thing. It is not recommended.
[09:58] <uxubuntu> understood, thanks
[09:59] <mbn_18> Any one, when 10.04 is going to be available?
[09:59] <tripelb> regenerate, I got video but no sound at all with ekiga. And then I had no idea what to do.

[10:00] <uxubuntu> mbn_18 I have used "rm -Rf .mozilla" in my home dir and it didn't do the trick
[10:01] <dORSY> Hi! I've got a problem with an audio stream http://stream002.radio.hu/mr2.aac Rhythmbox 0.12.8. 10.04 It is glitchy. Any help on this?
[10:01] <DarthPuff> magger: is there now a xorg file of some sort in roots home directory
[10:01] <magger> DarthPuff:  sorry.. i mean to say:   it did not create one
[10:01] <mbn_18> uxubuntu: the delete was successful ?
[10:01] <xiven> I restarted Ubuntu, and now at boot its giving a kernel panic, saying it cannot mount read-only device
[10:01] <uxubuntu> yes, no more .mozilla dir in my home dir
[10:01] <michele> italiano
[10:02] <mbn_18> uxubuntu: maybe: remove FF / delete .mozilla / install FF ?
[10:02] <tumii> michele: no italian here, check #ubuntu-it
[10:02] <tripelb> regenerate it's a fail so far. I gave up. Ubuntu isnt just an OS it's a continual project. Or is that the age and disrepair of my computers. (And I only want one working one! for now)
[10:02] <uxubuntu> if I do ls ~/.mozilla, no such file or dir
[10:02] <uxubuntu> ok I'll try that

[10:04] <DarthPuff> magger: if that is you in window 4 again i can't switch over there
[10:04] <thevishy> xiven, the unix system mounts ur disks as read only and not write ... u can manually change that in the way u mount /etc/fstab
[10:04] <xiven> thevishy> Hmm...well is there something I can do about it, other then reinstall?
[10:05] <uxubuntu> mbn_18 ok thank you, there was indeed a firefox proc still running, my firefox is back to normal, thank you again

[10:06] <b__> xiven, dORSY my pc only works well when i set frequency scaling to powersave... it heats up by overhauling and shuts down on ondemand or performance.. my pc is a 1year old laptop
[10:06] <regenerate> tripelb, know the feeling - thinking of getting a nice shiny one - but if it's new i'll be a tester! --- damned if ya do, damned if ya dont

[10:07] <thevishy> !powersaver

[10:07]  * tripelb wisheall good night and back to sleep for me.
[10:07] <AbortD> gnight
[10:07] <airjump> good morning
[10:08] <dORSY> b__, does your laptop's cooling work properly?
[10:08] <thevishy> i remember there is  software that I installed to scale the CPU frequency to various modes to avoid heating
[10:08] <xiven> thevishy> http://pastebin.com/gzYAqQaQ is my fstab
[10:10] <magger> i think i will jsut give up for now and ima go sleep a ocuple hours DarthPuff
[10:10] <magger> might have to install windows before i leave if nothing else works
[10:10] <b__> dORSY, worked fine in windows 7 ultimate
[10:10] <dORSY> b__, can you find out what uses your CPU?
[10:11] <DarthPuff> magger: i have done that many times
[10:11] <DarthPuff> magger: you will figure it out :)
[10:11] <thevishy> can anyone tell me how to install powersaved ?
[10:11] <DarthPuff> magger: it's 2 am here, i need sleep too
[10:11] <magger> i bet i wont
[10:12] <thevishy> xiven, in that which disk is ur problem
[10:12] <dORSY> b__, i have a desktop (amd5050e cpu), and it runs mostly on 1GHz (98% of the time) with ondemand, it scales up your cpu freq only when load is high
[10:12] <xiven> I suppose it would be root.disk
[10:13] <dORSY> b__, can you copy your load here?
[10:13] <thevishy> ok what type of media u are dealing with ? is it the harddisk ? and is it ur linux partitin or windows
[10:13] <xiven> It's a hard disk...Ubuntu is technically installed using Wubi
[10:14] <b__> dORSY, whenever i set it to powersave i am able to install softwares from software store or do updates or even copy paste a file more than 100mb... but on on demand it justs heats up and shuts down
[10:14] <natrixnatrix89> Something happened to my pc and now I cant turn it on. it turns on for like 2 seconds and then turns off again. I noticed that power supply and videocard fans start spinning and spin for those 2 seconds, but cpu fan just moves a bit in one dir and stops. What could this mean?
[10:14] <thevishy> ohh , u have installed in Windows ?

[10:24] <natrixnatrix89> Slart: Is there anything you can suggest me to do? Or would it be best if I took it directly to service?

[10:28] <bullgard> d4rkn3ss: The exact wording of your glib warning is important.
[10:28] <d4rkn3ss> bullgard: oha, then i have to restart, the error will be there for sure, brb^^

[10:47] <aaaoooaaa> how do i kill it?
[10:48] <psycho_oreos> aaaoooaaa, maybe via kill -9
[10:48] <DryGrain> find its pid with 'ps ax'
[10:48] <d4rkn3ss> bullgard: thx, now it works :)
[10:48] <DryGrain> then kill -9 PID
[10:48] <aaaoooaaa> i have its pid
[10:48] <DryGrain> sudo kill -9 pid
[10:48] <aaaoooaaa> cool thanks
[10:48] <bullgard> d4rkn3ss: Glad you made it.
[10:48] <DryGrain> np
[10:48] <aaaoooaaa> whats the diff between the kill -9 and the kill rvoked by hitting 'k' in top?
[10:49] <psycho_oreos> kill -9 is probably the last straw one should use for killing a process
[10:49] <aaaoooaaa> *invoked
[10:49] <psycho_oreos> man kill will tell you more
[10:49] <aaaoooaaa> ok
[10:49] <DryGrain> mm, not sure of the subtlties, but kill -9 is a 'last rsort'

[11:37] <erUSUL> Salz`: for xterm you should use .Xresources file. or make an alias for xterm that calls it with the apropiate -fb and -bg options set
[11:37] <Salz`> erUSUL: but does that work via ssh?

[11:57] <danub> whats the file i need to modify to change the grub menu? i want to remove the older versions of ubuntu listed
[11:58] <danub> no one knows eh?
[11:59] <kyerussell> menu.lst
[11:59] <kyerussell> or something
[11:59] <kyerussell> in /boot
[11:59] <bazhang> danub, you're referring to earlier kernels?

[11:59] <danub> yeah bazhang
[11:59] <danub> i have 4 eariler kernels listed and i want to remove them from boot
[12:00] <jrib> danub: just remove the packages for the older kernels: linux-image-*
[12:00] <danub> jrib: will that affect functionality?
[12:00] <jrib> danub: nope, you just won't be able to boot the older kernels anymore
[12:00] <danub> i dont technically care if they are there, I just want to comment them out so they dont show
[12:01] <florent> hello
[12:01] <danub> hello
[12:01] <jrib> danub: note: it's a good idea to keep 2 kernels around (the one you use and the one you have as a backup)
[12:01] <florent> do you speak french??
[12:01] <danub> negative
[12:01] <bazhang> florent, in #ubuntu-fr
[12:01] <danub> jrib, ill just comment them out of the startup list. just in case i ever need them for some reason
[12:02] <jrib> danub: there's no point, just remove them
[12:03] <danub> ok, ill remove them. where is the menu file so i can see which ones i want to remove
[12:03] <jrib> danub: aptitude search '~i~nlinux-image'    should be enough
[12:03] <jrib> danub: remember not to remove your current kernel...

[12:18] <Ddorda> is it possible to make my own language localization (like en_US)?
[12:18] <magn3ts> This is the built in mouse dialog and I'm staring at the checkbox that I just unchecked and rechecked 20 minutes ago. The box for "Enable mouse lcicks with touchpad" is not checked, yet I can assure everyone here than my touchpad continues to be activated while I'm typing causing me to have to type everything multiple times. (Oh yeah right, you thought the disable touchpad while typing would work right, hahahahahahhaaha)
[12:19] <jastor> is it possible to mount --bind, ln, or similiar a bashscript (whatever.sh) to a virtual file? so cat virtualfile outputs the same as if youd done ./whatever.sh
[12:19] <jrib> jastor: why would you want to?
[12:20] <lostson> magn3ts: my touchpad works fine and i use the same tool that you are talking about
[12:20] <jastor> jrib: so i wont have to put whatever,sh in cron and output the content to a file every X minutes
[12:21] <jastor> jrib: its for a program that only supports static files but it would be nice if i could bind it to a file that generates output on the fly
[12:21] <magn3ts> lostlappy, cool. mine doesn't. I mean, I am staring at the checkbox and I'm tapping my touch pad. One of them is lying and I don't think its the hardware. Im willing to do any kind of debugging necessary.
[12:21] <Jadoza> magn3ts, Some laptops have switches for the touchpad
[12:22] <jastor> jrib: if what im after is not possible, ill just make a cronjob out of it and > virtualfile
[12:22] <jrib> Jadoza: I don't understand the use case
[12:22] <jrib> jastor: I don't understand the use case
[12:23] <jastor> jrib: well probably not, but is it possible?
[12:23] <jrib> jastor: not afaik

[12:42] <usb333> psycho_oreos: it's more of a matter of speed I guess :)
[12:42] <psycho_oreos> usb333, if performance is an issue then you shouldn't even have xorg

 and other question, please,  disksleuth is also working in Ubuntu?
[12:56] <maginot> ahmet, open a terminal, type "alsamixer" locate the pcspeaker volume control and type M to mute it
[12:57] <maginot> ahmet, oh, you mean, normal speakers ?
[12:57] <ahmet> maginot, yes
[12:58] <maginot> ahmet, that is really odd, this isn't a system configuration, the responsable for this is the hardware AFAIK
[12:58] <petar_>  i have a problem with my gnome-terminal.. when i launch it, it keeps closing and reopening again in a loop.. tried it under diff x user and it worked ok.. bashrc and profile are unedited terminal reinstalled ?
[12:58] <ahmet> maginot, AFAIK? what does it mean?
[12:59] <maginot> ahmet, http://www.ircreviews.org/glossary/

[13:02] <maginot> ahmet, did you connect you headphone/speakers on the right connector?
[13:03] <ahmet> yes, it works on win7
[13:03] <maginot> ahmet, Hmm well, let me see if  I can find anything related to your problem
[13:04] <MrGoose> is it safe to upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10 with the upgrade tool?
[13:04] <maginot> petar_, so if it work on a different user it is certainly a problem with some of your config files in your user home folder
[13:04] <b_> how to open a .bundle file? for vmware
[13:04] <MrGoose> I know its a subjective question but are there any huge problems with upgrading?
[13:04] <petar_> maginot: i copied the files from the other user; bashrc profile
[13:05] <maginot> petar_, it worked?
[13:05] <hick0rd> MrGoose, A slight issues may occurs. it depends. but I'd rather say go ahead. It's worth a try.
[13:05] <Dr_Willis> MrGoose:  i suggest waiting.. unless you have some system to test out
[13:05] <Slart> MrGoose: 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 start
[13:05] <b_> MrGoose,  i upgraded from 9.10 to 10.04 beta ..damn safe.. provided ur internet doesnt have frequent random disconnections
[13:05] <rhinoplasty> MrGoose, AFAIK 9.10 works better than 9.04 for everyone i know
[13:06] <maginot> petar_, 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] <petar_> maginot: no
[13:06] <ahmet> maginot, in alsamixer i get this things on the top :: Card: HDA Intel   Chip: Realtek ALC880     View: [Playback] Capture  All   Item: Headphone
[13:06] <MrGoose> Slart: what do I backup? just home or the whole thing?
[13:06] <Slart> MrGoose: just your personal files.. ie your home folder
[13:07] <maginot> ahmet, that tells you the sound card you are configuring and the you are in the Playback view (you can navigate with Tab to capture and All )
[13:07] <MrGoose> cool! thanks Slart, b_, rhinoplasty, Dr_Willis, hick0rd :)
[13:08] <petar_> maginot: no change
[13:09] <ahmet> maginot, in alsamixer headphone is 00 and i cant increase it
[13:09] <TheRealExile> hey guys, does anyone know how I can install the latest stable release of firefox? I'm using the Namoroka version and its buggy as hell
[13:09] <maginot> petar_, after moving all your config files to bk_config_files logoff and login again, remember you can come back to the old configuration wit the cp command I gave you
[13:09] <TheRealExile> it seems to update automaticly
[13:09] <TheRealExile> and wont let me install the latest 3.6.3 stable version
[13:09] <petar_> maginot: y thx
[13:10] <chris78945> I am having some troubles with samba and file sharing, someone here lend a hand for a minute?
[13:11] <TheRealExile> I'll try
[13:11] <hick0rd> TheRealExile,  update it via your distro package management. i.e aptitude/apt-get
[13:11] <TheRealExile> whats up
[13:11] <maginot> ahmet, are you using a acer notebook?
[13:12] <TheRealExile> hick0rd I've tryed and it keeps telling me that firefox 3.6 is installed
[13:12] <TheRealExile> I want 3.6.3
[13:12] <TheRealExile> not 3.6.4pre
[13:12] <petar_> maginot: no change
[13:12] <petar_> xD
[13:13] <ahmet> maginot, no its Vestel. its not a renowned brand
[13:13] <petar_> im lucky
[13:13] <rhinoplasty> TheRealExile,  try removing firefox & the reinstalling by specifying the version
[13:13] <hick0rd> TheRealExile,  'firefox --version' state the output over here.
[13:13] <idefine> is there a way to send keystores to an application?
[13:13] <maginot> petar_, Hmm how could that not work if you have no problem with a different user, now I'm bugged
[13:13] <idefine> via a bash script?
[13:14] <g33kergRrL> is it better to burn the ubuntu image to a cd, and let it partition, or should i partition it before using a BootCD?
[13:14] <idefine> keystrokes*
[13:14] <TheRealExile> Mozilla Firefox 3.6.4pre, Copyright (c) 1998 - 2010 mozilla.org
[13:14] <TheRealExile> I'll try removing
[13:14] <TheRealExile> but I need to back my config up
[13:14] <TheRealExile> dont want to do this unless I have to
[13:14] <bazhang> g33kergRrL, you can use a gparted livecd if you wish, though the installer can do it fine
[13:14] <TheRealExile> just incase something gets missed
[13:15] <hick0rd> TheRealExile, do you have untrusted repository enabled other than the default updated repository?
[13:15] <g33kergRrL> baz is there a difference? and is there an advantage over using ubu804 over ubu910?
[13:15] <maginot> ahmet, on quick search I found these two links, I think they  are related: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/114053 http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-laptop-and-netbook-25/ubuntu-headphone-599930/
[13:16] <rhinoplasty> TheRealExile, you are'nt by any chance using the developer ppa for firefox?
[13:16] <TheRealExile> I must do, beacue its an update that broke my ff install
[13:16] <g33kergRrL> how do i see if my ubuntu is infected with the w32virutcf worm
[13:16] <bazhang> g33kergRrL, sure, karmic the latest will be supported past this month and is more feature-ful
[13:16] <g33kergRrL> how do i see if my ubuntu is infected with the w32virutcf worm, bazhang
[13:16] <maginot> g33kergRrL, ubuntu is linux, which doesn't have virus
[13:16] <today> i have a prblm with "unable to mount " my usb, it say that only root must mount ?how?
[13:16] <bekkio> hi all
[13:16] <bazhang> g33kergRrL, its not
[13:17] <bekkio> is there someone expert with boot options?
[13:17] <g33kergRrL> ARE there virusscanners for ubuntu?
[13:17] <hick0rd> TheRealExile, check your current source.list.d/ directory for any custom firefox PPA.
[13:17] <joaopinto> !virus | g33kergRrL
[13:17] <bazhang> clamav g33kergRrL
[13:17] <today> hi maginot, remember me, lasttime, you support for me about config Samba.conf
[13:17] <maginot> g33kergRrL, yes, but is useless, you don't have virus to worry about on linux...
[13:17] <rhinoplasty> today, try running the command as sudo
[13:17] <Freeloop> What's the best software for Remote Desktop on Ubuntu? NX(NoMachine is good, but can't use mstsc.exe to it). VNC is crap
[13:17] <today> what cammand rhinoplasty?
[13:18] <joaopinto> !language | Freeloop
[13:18] <today> what command rhinoplasty?
[13:18] <chris78945> I 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 content
[13:18] <rhinoplasty> today, how exactly are you 'mounting' the usb
[13:18] <maginot> today, the mount command you need to mount the usb driver, like sudo mount <device> <mount/point>
[13:18] <joaopinto> Freeloop, there is no windows terminal server for linux
[13:19] <today> why usb device do not auto mount?
[13:19] <TheRealExile> hmmm
[13:19] <Freeloop> joaopinto,ok, good to know. Then I'll use NX Machine
[13:19] <joaopinto> in my experience NX is the best in performance
[13:19] <TheRealExile> the only things I can see are stable
[13:19] <TheRealExile> I'll paste a copy
[13:19] <joaopinto> if you are on a LAN you can use X
[13:19] <joaopinto> which is still much slower than VNC :P
[13:20] <TheRealExile> http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/8GuaKBhg
[13:20] <maginot> today, 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] <TheRealExile> if someone could have a look I'd be much appreceated!
[13:20] <TheRealExile> cos everything looks ok to me
[13:20] <Freeloop> joaopinto, SSH works in most cases, but still looking for a great remote GUI server
[13:20] <g33kergRrL> i 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?
[13:21] <maginot> TheRealExile, and what is your problem?
[13:21] <today> i want the usb device will automount for every time to plug  maginot
[13:21] <bazhang> g33kergRrL, you don't plan on installing?
[13:21] <g33kergRrL> i really do
[13:21] <TheRealExile> how I can install the latest stable release of firefox? I'm using the Namoroka version and its buggy as hell
[13:21] <TheRealExile> and wont let me install the latest 3.6.3 stable version
[13:21] <g33kergRrL> i just wanna know where and how to find stuff
[13:21] <bazhang> g33kergRrL, then install flash once you have installed Ubuntu
[13:22] <maginot> g33kergRrL, 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, etc
[13:22] <TheRealExile> I'm stuck with a buggy 3.6.4pre Namoroka version
[13:22] <g33kergRrL> bazhang: yah, it somehow didn't work weirdly enough
[13:22] <arvind_khadri> Hi, how do i add an user to a group, is it using usermod  ??
[13:22] <bazhang> g33kergRrL, you haven't installed yet have you
[13:22] <joaopinto> TheRealExile, if you believe is buggy file bug reports about it, there aren't general complains about the current version on the repository
[13:22] <g33kergRrL> i ran a livecd
[13:22] <bazhang> g33kergRrL, which is not an install
[13:23] <g33kergRrL> it played the avis alright but no utub
[13:23] <hick0rd> TheRealExile, remove the last two lines within your sources list. 60-61
[13:23] <TheRealExile> it keeps crashing when ever I visit a page with AJAX
[13:23] <g33kergRrL> w/e
[13:23] <today> i already do this command : sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /media/sdb1
[13:23] <today> then i can access my usb device,
[13:23] <maginot> g33kergRrL, on ubuntu you can use "synaptic" to one (two, maybe 3) click install... just open synaptic and search what you want, select and click apply
[13:23] <joaopinto> TheRealExile, you are using some 3rd party ppa, not the official version
[13:23] <g33kergRrL> maginot where do i find synaptic?
[13:23] <joaopinto> I have used firefox for a long time without any of such crashes
[13:24] <maginot> g33kergRrL, it is already built in on ubuntu (or any debian based distro)
[13:24] <g33kergRrL> ok
[13:24] <TheRealExile> ok removed the lines
[13:24] <today> hey 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 quit
[13:24] <bekkio> sorry what's the channel for boot issues?
[13:24] <joaopinto> TheRealExile, now you should reinstall firefox, but the official package
[13:24] <TheRealExile> using 'sudo apt-get install firefox-3.6' ?
[13:24] <TheRealExile> or do I have to remove first
[13:25] <topland> any one know how to find wifi network as i have install wifi driver also but it is not showing over here
[13:25] <maginot> g33kergRrL, 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] <hick0rd> TheRealExile, 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] <g33kergRrL> maginot: is there preference for installing on an IDE drive or a SATA drive?
[13:25] <today> not right TheRealExile beacause im try again that ways but dont fix that error?
[13:25] <TheRealExile> yeah I'm sure I need some on the jaunty packages
[13:26] <g33kergRrL> maginot: is there preference for installing on a 15 GB partition or is it a case of the bigger the better?
[13:26] <maginot> g33kergRrL, sata is always better them ide, IDE is a old technology and Sata is a newer one (specially SATA II)
[13:26] <hick0rd> TheRealExile, so, try to apt-get update && apt-get remove firefox
[13:26] <g33kergRrL> maginot: clear!
[13:26] <TheRealExile> ok
[13:26] <TheRealExile> what about my settings
[13:26] <TheRealExile> I need to back up them?
[13:26] <hick0rd> TheRealExile, your firefox setting?
[13:26] <maginot> g33kergRrL, 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 needs
[13:27] <topland> can anyone help me for wifi
[13:27] <hick0rd> TheRealExile, yes, backup them if necessary.
[13:27] <ikonia> !wifi | topland
[13:27] <maginot> TheRealExile, backup never hurt anybody ;)
[13:27] <TheRealExile> yeah
[13:27] <g33kergRrL> maginot: yah i think it suggested 15 gb, but i think ill go with 50gb
[13:27] <TheRealExile> to a diffrent dir?
[13:27] <reinemans> How do I register to this IRC?
[13:27] <reinemans> !register
[13:27] <TheRealExile> cos I'll lose the fireforx dir in the reinstall?
[13:28] <bazhang> reinemans, join #freenode for help
[13:28] <g33kergRrL> maginot: it will read my ntfs partitions, yeah?
[13:28] <maginot> g33kergRrL, I'm a all day linux user, so I have 500gb for my linux system (split on different partitions) and a 320gb HD for Windows (which I like to play some games x} )
[13:28] <reinemans> ok
[13:28] <maginot> g33kergRrL, yes, it will.
[13:28] <topland> ubottu  i have install the driver and it is showing it is install but still when i do sudo iwlist scan it want come up
[13:29] <gantrixx> where can I find the Ubuntu release schedule?
[13:29] <maginot> !lucid
[13:29] <joaopinto> gantrixx, google.com: lucid schedule
[13:29] <IdleOne> gantrixx: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LucidLynxSchedule
[13:29] <g33kergRrL> maginot: if we're only talking apps, or what are they called in linuxese, how much do you reserve for that? i got 1.75 TB plus 5 or 6 20 GB IDE
[13:30] <joaopinto> linuxese, lol
[13:30] <today> !bye
[13:30]  * g33kergRrL thinks PC? it's Linuxian?
[13:30] <joaopinto> g33kergRrL, it will depends on your needs, a few gigas are usually enough
[13:30] <g33kergRrL> chow, dood, ubottu
[13:31] <g33kergRrL> i'm really so fed up with all these effing viruses
[13:31] <maginot> g33kergRrL, actually most part of my disk space is for files, let me get a precise count of what my applications are using...
[13:31] <maginot> g33kergRrL, really, don't worry about them, them are useless and very old, can be a problem to you today
[13:32] <maginot> *can't
[13:32]  * kevdog I dyin' here
[13:32] <g33kergRrL> what's a really good site for ubuntu noobs
[13:32] <kevdog> ubuntuforums
[13:32] <maginot> g33kergRrL, http://ubuntuforums.org
[13:32] <djbeenie_> sweet firefox keeps crashing after update this morning
[13:32] <TheRealExile> Ahhh
[13:32] <TheRealExile> I just uninstalled firefox
[13:33] <TheRealExile> done
[13:33] <maginot> g33kergRrL, of course you could always check google, its a good place to start looking for answers  ;)
[13:33] <TheRealExile> sudo apt-get install firefox-3.6
[13:33] <TheRealExile> and I've got 3.6.4pre again!
[13:33] <reinemans> So, now i'm registered :)
[13:33] <TheRealExile> how is this possible?
[13:33] <g33kergRrL> i 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] <joaopinto> TheRealExile, because that's the version provided on the official package ?
[13:33] <djbeenie_> firefox-3.6 is already the newest versio
[13:34] <TheRealExile> yes
[13:34] <g33kergRrL> or program, or group or whatever
[13:34] <joaopinto> g33kergRrL, there are such migration tipos, google for it
[13:34] <sound> Can anyone recommend a program to rip a CD to wav files - ideally one per track?
[13:34] <kevdog> gg33kergRrL: I'm not aware of any site like that.
[13:34] <g33kergRrL> or community
[13:34] <petar_> maginot: hmm.. bashrc didn't even get created
[13:34] <TheRealExile> not 3.6.4
[13:34] <TheRealExile> is bot
[13:34] <TheRealExile> not
[13:34] <TheRealExile> 3.6.3
[13:34] <TheRealExile> is
[13:34] <FloodBot3> TheRealExile: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[13:34] <bazhang> !equivalents | g33kergRrL
[13:34] <petar_> maginot: so it crashes before loading
[13:34] <TheRealExile> so why am I getting 3.6.4pre when I do sudo apt-get install firefox-3.6
[13:34] <g33kergRrL> joaopinto: aha!
[13:34] <petar_> or dunno lol
[13:34] <maginot> g33kergRrL, 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 opnion
[13:34] <joaopinto> TheRealExile, repeating myself, because that is the version provided on the repositories you have setup ?
[13:35] <bazhang> g33kergRrL, check the link I just sent you first
[13:35] <kevdog> Its because thats what is pulled from your repository list
[13:35] <maginot> petar_, I don't think that have any relation with gnome-terminal, since if you don't have bashrc it will use the default from /etc
[13:35] <TheRealExile> sorry
[13:35] <g33kergRrL> i meant ubottu: aha et merci beaucoup
[13:35] <TheRealExile> I am new to the linux world
[13:35] <joaopinto> TheRealExile, does it still crash ?
[13:35] <petar_> maginot: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Elvo_prc7NE
[13:35] <g33kergRrL> TheRealExile: hey me too
[13:35] <kevdog> Did you do a sudo aptitude update to update the repository list?
[13:35] <TheRealExile> yup after reinstall
[13:35] <TheRealExile> any AJAX
[13:36] <TheRealExile> kills it
[13:36] <joaopinto> TheRealExile, you don't usually get the latest version on from the repositories
[13:36] <reinemans> TheRealExile: me too
[13:36] <TheRealExile> so I cant view my gmail
[13:36] <joaopinto> hum, that's odd :\
[13:36] <petar_> maginot: i thought it coopies the sample to the ~
[13:36] <mouse> How do I adjust the transparency of the system monitor?
[13:36] <kevdog> What version do you want then?  Just google for it
[13:36] <joaopinto> TheRealExile, apt-cache policy firefox-3.6
[13:36] <TheRealExile> I know so I've done something to my system config
[13:36] <joaopinto> pastebin the output
[13:36] <reinemans> Does anyone know how i can change the colors of this IRC chat in the terminal, where I am in right now?
[13:36] <kevdog> depends on the program
[13:37] <bazhang> reinemans, which client
[13:37] <maginot> petar_, not exactly...
[13:37] <youssef> Hello. Does wubi works on Windows 7, 64 bits? I tried to install/unstall it several times, disabling antivirus and allowing the program. But it always fails with "permission denied" and pointing to a log file in directrory that does not exist
[13:37] <xomp> hello, 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] <petar_> maginot: some x configs or something?
[13:38] <reinemans> bazhang, I don't really know accually, I just typed in /IRC and then /server irc.freenode.net /channel #ubuntu  so
[13:38] <djbeenie_> grrr danit..there it goes again.  anyone's firefox crashing after the update this morn
[13:38] <maginot> petar_, your problem is annoying me lol since removing all configuration files should have helped you
[13:38] <babilen> xomp: man chown/chgrp (hint: user:group for chown)
[13:38] <joaopinto> xomp, chown user:group
[13:38] <xomp> thanks babilen & joaopinto :)
[13:38] <maginot> petar_, the thing that bugs me is that you told that with other user you can use it without problems, right?
[13:38] <bazhang> reinemans, xchat? konversation? irssi? weechat? which irc client are you using (it should say on the title bar
[13:38] <xomp> so "chown steam:steam ./tf2/ -R"
 http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/Gfkc7Ndz
[13:39] <bekkio>  sorry all i have serious boot problems, is this the right channel?
[13:39] <babilen> xomp: exactly
[13:39] <xomp> cheers :)
[13:39] <TheRealExile> looks fine
[13:39] <bekkio> or there is another better?
[13:39] <joaopinto> TheRealExile, you are using the version from a ppa, not the official version
[13:39] <reinemans> I'm not using an IRC client, I'm chatting in the terminal :P
[13:39] <joaopinto> TheRealExile, not it does not
[13:39] <youssef> has anyone a cle?
[13:39] <TheRealExile> oh
[13:39] <bazhang> bekkio, what version of ubuntu
[13:39] <TheRealExile> ok
[13:39] <petar_> maginot: yes if i switch user it's ok
[13:39] <bekkio> all :)
[13:39] <joaopinto> you still have the ppa on your sources
[13:39] <bekkio> i can't boot any OS
[13:39] <bazhang> bekkio, what version are you currently trying to use is the question
[13:39] <TheRealExile> can I just remove it?
[13:40] <joaopinto> remove the firefox ppa, sudo apt-get update, remove it, and reinstall
[13:40] <reinemans> Bazhang: I'm not using an IRC client, I'm chatting in the terminal :P
[13:40] <bazhang> reinemans, sounds like irssi or weechat
[13:40] <steffan> reinemans: your using ircII which is an irc client
[13:40] <g33kergRrL> my download has finished! gonna burn and run that thing now
[13:40] <reinemans> Steffan: that's the one I think
[13:40] <maginot> petar_, did you already copied back the files you moved to bk_config_files ?
[13:40] <bekkio> i tried with all ubuntu version from 8.04 to 9.10 and also grml, gparted live and systemrescuecd
[13:40] <kevdog> @TheRealExile -- Just put a # in front of the line in your /etc/apt/sources.list file that references the ppa repository and then do a sudo aptitude update
[13:40] <reinemans> Steffan: I installed it with synaptic
[13:40] <zombie-robot> anyone know how i can log into demonoid and download a torrent from a godaddy server
[13:40] <steffan> reinemans: yes. it is still an irc client. whether it has a GUI or not
[13:40] <g33kergRrL> thanks all bazhang maginot joaopinto and everyone
[13:41] <maginot> g33kergRrL, you're welcome.
[13:41] <bazhang> zombie-robot, offtopic for here
[13:41] <g33kergRrL> chow, doods
[13:41] <bekkio> every of them also in failsafe mode, forensic mode...
[13:41]  * snubby tips hat and bows
[13:41] <reinemans> Steffan: so, do you know how I can change the collors in here (using the terminal and ircII) ?
[13:41] <TheRealExile> fixed it
[13:41] <TheRealExile> thanks guys
[13:42] <Dr_Willis> reinemans:  you are using 'ircii' ? wow - thats an old client
[13:42] <bekkio> simply there is something blocking my boot
[13:42] <TheRealExile> I now have 3.6.3 back
[13:42] <bazhang> bekkio, try an alternate version then after md5sum the iso burning at low speed and doing the disk integrity check
[13:42] <joaopinto> TheRealExile, be carefull using ppa's ;)
[13:42] <TheRealExile> thanks to everyone esp <joaopinto>
[13:42] <reinemans> Dr_Willis what do you recomment?
[13:42] <TheRealExile> I will
[13:42] <steffan> reinemans: no. you could take a look at their website https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/Contributing, or find out if they have an IRC channel on freenode and visit there if they do
[13:42] <TheRealExile> but sometimes you have to learn the hard way ;)
[13:42] <youssef> seems to work
[13:42] <youssef> see you
[13:42] <Dr_Willis> reinemans:  for a text based irc - i suggest the latest weechat.
[13:42] <steffan> reinemans: http://www.eterna.com.au/ircii/, sorry!
[13:42] <petar_> maginot: no.. but i did it now and it didn't work..
[13:43] <Dr_Willis> reinemans:  or irssi.
[13:43] <chris78945> what do "sudo chown nobody.nogroup /srv/samba/share/ do??????
[13:43] <Dr_Willis> chris78945:  sets  the dir to be owned by user nobody and group nogoup
[13:43] <joaopinto> chris78945, man chown
[13:43] <steffan> chris78945: makes /srv/samba/share/ owned by nobody in nogroup
[13:43] <blankthemuffin> wondering how to change the hostname, /etc/hostname does not exit?
[13:43] <maginot> petar_, actually I would like to follow the steps to see if everything is like I expect...
[13:43] <bekkio> sorry 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 problem
[13:43] <blankthemuffin> 9.10
[13:43] <bekkio> but i can run the console
[13:43] <joaopinto> chris78945, don't do it unless you really know you want to do it
[13:43] <chris78945> when setting up samba then i want to change all of that to my username and group??
[13:43] <bazhang> bekkio, then ask in ##hardware
[13:44] <bekkio> ook thank you!
[13:44] <babilen> chris78945: That command contains a syntax error. It should read nobody:nogroup
[13:44] <chris78945> joaopinto, why is that?
[13:44] <joaopinto> blankthemuffin, sudo hostname hostname [if i am not mistaken]
[13:44] <zombie-robot> >bazhang< what would be an appropriate channel for my query?
[13:44] <joaopinto> you also need to make sure it's listed on /etc/hosts first
[13:44] <blankthemuffin> changes it until reboot joaopinto
[13:44] <guntbert> !hostname | blankthemuffin
[13:44] <maginot> petar_,  "mv ~/.* ~/bk_config_files" after that can you pastebin the output of "ls -a ~/ | grep -e '^.' "
[13:44] <bazhang> zombie-robot, no idea, probably not on freenode network to be honest
[13:44] <joaopinto> chris78945, because you shouldn't change ownership recursively unless you understand why you are doing it
[13:45] <chris78945> All: 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-installation
[13:45] <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] <blankthemuffin> like I said, there is no /etc/hostname do I just need to create it or has something changed?
[13:45] <reinemans> Dr_Willis: I installed Weechat, but I can't find it anywere... , were is it?
[13:45] <joaopinto> blankthemuffin, you can use the "hostname" command which will create it
[13:46] <joaopinto> but don't forget /etc/hosts first
[13:46] <arvind_khadri> reinemans, weechat in terminal :)
[13:46] <reinemans> arvind_khadri: how do I open weechat then, I'm new in linux :P
[13:46] <chris78945> joaopinto, 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 samba
[13:46] <arvind_khadri> reinemans, type weechat in a terminal
[13:46] <arvind_khadri> !terminal > reinemans
[13:47] <joaopinto> hum, that tutorial should be safe :P
[13:47] <chris78945> Dr_Willis, do i want to change nobody nogroup to something else i f i am setting up samba?
[13:47] <steffan> chris78945: if the documentation you're following doesn't state to change it, then don't
[13:48] <blankthemuffin> hostname does not create the file, it just sets it for the current session. making my own /etc/hostname works fine though.
[13:48] <joaopinto> Blackcamaro8, hostname set's it system wide, there is no "session" hostname
[13:49] <reinemans> hmmm... still can't open weechat...? I typed in /weechat  do I need to add something?
[13:49] <blankthemuffin> it's not permanent, you reboot you loose it joaopinto.
[13:49] <joaopinto> blankthemuffin, ops, sorry, you are right
[13:49] <guntbert> reinemans: not /weechat but weechat :-)
[13:49] <blankthemuffin> :) thanks anyway.
[13:50] <reinemans> guntbert: I tried that too but didn't work for me
[13:50] <steffan> !weechat | reinemans
[13:50] <maginot> blankthemuffin, did you changed any network configuration files or init files?
[13:51] <reinemans> Steffan: doesn't work :(
[13:51] <steffan> reinemans: apt-get update && apt-get install weechat; weechat
[13:51] <steffan> reinemans: have you installed it?
[13:51] <arvind_khadri> reinemans, do which weechat in terminal
[13:52] <reinemans> Steffan: yes I did, using synaptic
[13:52] <arvind_khadri> reinemans, do <<which weechat>> in terminal
[13:52] <petar_> maginot: sry must have done something wrong it works now thx
[13:52] <steffan> reinemans: what package did you install?
[13:52] <reinemans> weechat
[13:53] <maginot> petar_, great, now you see why it was bugging me =D
[13:53] <reinemans> Steffan: Weechat version 0.2.6.3-1
[13:54] <reinemans> Maby ircII is being an idiot interupting things for weechat?
[13:55] <monkeyChatter> hello! I've got a problem... I've got two different audio devices, and I need to switch between them, at pleasure. Is there any easy step to do this? I'm on KDE. Thanks :)
[13:56] <bazhang> reinemans, what abo ut this command weechat-curses
[13:56] <bazhang> http://www.weechat.org/files/doc/stable/weechat_user.en.html reinemans
[13:57] <reinemans> bazhang I think that did work :P let me try to join this erver
[14:01] <ActionParsnip> Yo yo yo
[14:02] <Guest3630> y0
[14:02] <Guest3630> hello
[14:02] <Guest3630> any body know about torrentflux
[14:03] <Guest3630> any irc channel for torrentflux
[14:03] <ActionParsnip> !info torrentflux
[14:03] <ActionParsnip> Guest3630: its on the official repo so is supported here
[14:04] <Guest3630> hello but i am confused torrentflux b4rt s good or torrentflux ?
[14:04] <ActionParsnip> Guest3630: what's b4rt?
[14:04] <s3r3n1t7_> Guest3630, i use torrentflux myself. Could you try to rephrase that question?
[14:04] <Guest3630> torrentflux-b4rt
[14:05] <ActionParsnip> !info torrentflux-b4rt
[14:05] <Guest3630> :(
[14:05] <Guest3630> its new
[14:05] <maginot> I like transmission =)
[14:05] <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?
[14:06] <chris78945> A password is being requested for my samba share but i never set one nor know what to use. any help with this?
[14:06] <Guest3630> s3r3n1t7 ok thats gr8
[14:07] <Guest3630> no problem
[14:07] <ActionParsnip> Chris78945: sudo smbpasswd -a $USER ,you can set the password for the current user. You can now authenticate as your current user with the password you set
[14:07] <Guest3630> i am happy with torrentflux
[14:07] <maginot> ActionParsnip, chris78945, of course, that user must have such a permission on /etc/samba/smb.conf
[14:08] <chris78945> ActionParsnip, do i replace$USER with my computers username?
[14:08] <ActionParsnip> Chris78945: you can add more users and configure samba to allow certain users in certain folders only. Very powerful
[14:08] <ActionParsnip> Chris78945: $USER is the current user of the session. You don't have to change it
[14:09] <Reinemans> Using xChat right now :P much easier :P
[14:09] <ttest> #python-fr
[14:09] <chris78945> maginot, i dont have any mention of passwords in my smb.conf file.  i just copied  a basic conf file from the samba websites guide
[14:09] <ActionParsnip> Chris78945: unless you have su'd to another username
[14:10] <maginot> chris78945, pastebin /etc/samba/smb.conf
[14:12] <chris78945> ActionParsnip, that worked!!!!! thank you very very much....a week later and i finally get it to work! lol
[14:13] <ActionParsnip> Chris78945: no worries dude, you will need the credentials for mapping network drives (windows) or samba mounting (linux etc)
[14:14] <chris78945> maginot, http://pastebin.com/afWGfSRV
[14:14] <chris78945> ActionParsnip, what do you mean by that exactly?
[14:14] <maginot> chris78945, well, I think now that is working that isn't need, or do you still have a problem
[14:15] <ActionParsnip> Chris78945: well the credentials authenticate you so if you want access to it you will need to provide the credentials
[14:16] <kuttans> whats the irc channel for lucid
[14:16] <ActionParsnip> Chris78945: so if you use windows and want to map a network drive for access you will need to make the os remember the credentials etc
[14:16] <chris78945> maginot, if you take a look at it though could you provide a little insight on things i could possibly change/add though? no pressure if you dontwant to
[14:16] <maginot> chris78945, you see, /home/Chris have some special username needs, since it belongs to Chris, that a reason the you needed to create a samba user =)
[14:16] <kuttans> anyone who can tell about irc channel of lucid lynx
[14:16] <steffan> kuttans: #ubuntu-deel
[14:16] <ActionParsnip> !lucid | kuttans
[14:16] <chris78945> ActionParsnip, i gotcha,
[14:17] <maginot> chris78945, maybe you want to take a look at this simple configuration I have here: http://maginot.pastebin.com/simhyvqK
[14:17] <chris78945> maginot, ActionParsnip thank you both very much!!!!  now to fix my xbox xbmc problems...i cant play videos!
[14:17] <zombie-robot> how do proxies work
[14:17] <ActionParsnip> Chris78945: it also makes the share more secure rather than allowing everyone and his dog to just walk in and view / edit your data
[14:18] <zombie-robot> how do i route my connection through a godaddy server ip?
[14:18] <ancanta> hi im in a live cd...i lost my network manager ..how i can install it again?
[14:18] <maginot> chris78945, this is a good samba resource too: http://ieee.uwaterloo.ca/UsingSamba/index.html
[14:19] <maginot> ancanta, how did you "lost it" ?
[14:20] <ancanta> i tried to install some programs..i dont know which of them make it
[14:20] <zombie-robot> can i setup a proxy from a godaddy server?
[14:20] <maginot> zombie-robot, godaddy is a third part service, which may have their own support
[14:20] <ancanta> ok lost is not the right word ..unistall..sorry my bad english
[14:20] <ActionParsnip> Ancanta: I find that if you are in livecd and run; sudo apt-get --reinstall install networkmanager ,then you can copy the deb to the system and install it with dpkg :)
[14:20] <maginot> !ot > zombie-robot
[14:21] <ancanta> ActionParsnip, how i copy the deb to my system ?
[14:21] <xangua> ActionParsnip ancantaor just put the cd/dvd and install it from synaptic
[14:21] <ancanta> how can i login to my ubuntu partition to view my files ?
[14:21] <ActionParsnip> Ancanta: open the partition in the places menu then run: gksu nautilus ,you then have write access to the internal partition you mounted via the /media folder
[14:22] <ancanta> ActionParsnip, right! thx i'll try it
[14:22] <ActionParsnip> Xanugua: might not have the release media for the installed release
[14:22] <maginot> ancanta, you could chroot to the other partition and run apt-get normally, or try doing what ActionParsnip told and copying the archive from /var/cache/apt/archives/ but, maybe NM have some dependencies that had being removed too
[14:22] <ActionParsnip> Xangua: like after a release upgrade
[14:23] <zombie-robot> could i use a ubuntu package to log in to a GD sever and browse fron that ip?
[14:23] <ancanta> maginot, how i chroot to the other partition ?
[14:23] <maginot> ancanta, do you know which partition is your ubuntu system installed ?
[14:24] <zombie-robot> sorry if its off topic but i dont know where else to go
[14:24] <maginot> zombie-robot, www.godaddy.com
[14:24] <ancanta> i can understad it from the size i cant remember it..
[14:24] <zombie-robot> godaddy didnt help me
[14:25] <zombie-robot> is it even possible?
[14:25] <maginot> ancanta, how many disks you have on your computer, do you know that?
[14:25] <ancanta> one disk, many partitions
[14:25] <maginot> ancanta, "fdisk -l /dev/sda" what output?
[14:25] <maginot> !pastebin
[14:27] <ancanta> maginot, http://paste.ubuntu.com/412113/
[14:27] <maginot> ancanta, or it is /dev/sda4 or /dev/sda6
[14:27] <ancanta> maginot is 4
[14:27] <maginot> ancanta, "sudo mount /dev/sda4 /mnt"
[14:29] <ancanta> maginot, and now i download the deb file and save it to the mounted volume ?
[14:29] <maginot> ancanta, no
[14:29] <ancanta> ok tell me..
[14:29] <sweb> what is the correct openjdk command line for execute jar file
[14:29] <maginot> ancanta, what is /dev/sda6 ?
[14:29] <sweb> i need for create link in gnome
[14:29] <sweb>  !!!
[14:29] <theadmin> java -jar jarfile, sweb
[14:29] <rocket16> sweb: It is "java -jar filename.jar"
[14:30] <ancanta> its /home
[14:30] <maginot> ancanta, isn't something like /var, right?
[14:30] <maginot> ok
[14:30] <maginot> ancanta, now I recommend you to "sudo -i"
[14:31] <maginot> ancanta, after that "chroot /mnt" and after chrooting "apt-get install network-manager"

[14:33] <ActionParsnip> Damn google
[14:33] <ActionParsnip> So frustrating
[14:34] <maginot> ancanta, are you there?
[14:34] <ActionParsnip> Topland: the guide will get it working in any release and any version of linux as it is making the driver
[14:35] <ancanta> maginot, E: Unable to fetch some archives, maybe run apt-get update or try with --fix-missing?
[14:36] <maginot> ancanta, well, that is other problem... this is the only output after apt-get install network-manager? patebin please

[14:36] <magooo> where i can download precompiled kernels in format .deb to just install ?
[14:36] <ActionParsnip> Ancanta: sudo apt-get -f install
[14:36] <ActionParsnip> Magooo: http://packages.ubuntu.com
[14:37] <magooo> ActionParsnip, thanks, but theres 64bit kernel ready?
[14:37] <ducktype> openvm-tools are an alternative to vmware tools or i need both?
[14:37] <maginot> ActionParsnip, looks like a DNS problem...
[14:37] <maginot> ancanta, "ping archive.ubuntu.com" works?
[14:38] <ancanta> no ... ping: unknown host archive.ubuntu.com
[14:38] <casper3> How can I customize (such as changing background) grub 1.97 ??
[14:38] <ActionParsnip> magooo: ubuntu has had a 64bit version option for a lonnng time
[14:38] <ActionParsnip> !grub2 | casper3
[14:38] <magooo> ok
[14:39] <maginot> ancanta, do this before running the apt-get command: "echo 'nameserver 8.8.8.8' > /etc/resolv.conf" after that retry running apt-get command
[14:39] <ducktype> i want upstart support for scheduled tasks!!!
[14:40] <ActionParsnip> Maginot: easiest one to remember ;)
[14:40] <maginot> ActionParsnip, indeed ;D
[14:40] <maginot> ActionParsnip, primary and secondary, 8.8.4.4 ;X
[14:41] <ancanta> maginot, seems it worked!!!!! now i can restart and boot from my account ?
[14:41] <maginot> ancanta, yes.
[14:41] <ActionParsnip> Maginot: nar dude, 127.0.0.1 as primary (install and config dnsmasq ;))
[14:41] <ancanta> ok...thnx a lot..i will be on #ubuntu if it works :)
[14:42] <ActionParsnip> Maginot: speeds up DNS to local if possible, 0ms resolve time
[14:42] <maginot> ActionParsnip, hmm local cache?
[14:42] <ActionParsnip> Maginot: indeed. Speeds up the web a bit
[14:42] <maginot> ActionParsnip, good to know, just installed =)
[14:43] <ActionParsnip> Maginot: also disable ipv6 if you don't use it with the grub config :)
[14:43] <ActionParsnip> Maginot: it needs a tiny bit of tweak but there are guides all over
[14:43] <Lord_Chewbakka> i cant get my firefox to work, any1 had that problem after the update?
[14:43] <Gesi> hi
[14:44] <maginot> ActionParsnip, no problem with that, just have to do something to spend my time.. I'm bored of programming, lets configure them =D
[14:44] <maginot> ActionParsnip, again, thanks for the tip.
[14:44] <ActionParsnip> Maginot: np man, make things even quicker with a local squid proxy if you got spare space
[14:44] <Gesi> i just got ubuntu 10.04 and i am now trying to install it but  installation stops at the 3rd step in which i have to chose my keyboard type
[14:45] <Gesi> any help please
[14:45] <ActionParsnip> !lucid | gesi
[14:45] <maginot> ActionParsnip, well, I realy will not install squid here, but I have some servers running it, it will help only local machine navigation or can help the entire network?
[14:45] <gbear14275> ok guys... i'm dying here... just upgraded all my packages... I don't have a windows manager
[14:45] <Gesi> thanks
[14:46] <lightstep> how can i get to the GVFS configuration window? i want to set mount options for my windows partition and usb drive
[14:46] <ActionParsnip> Maginot: it will help all who use it by caching web content for faster access
[14:46] <gbear14275> I can't move my windows, resize, minimize, close... nothing
[14:46] <alain_> .
[14:46] <maginot> ActionParsnip, no, I'm not talking about squid, I'm talking about dnsmasq...
[14:46] <lightstep> some years ago there was "gnome-volume-manager", but it doesn't exist any more
[14:46] <gbear14275> I really need some help please
[14:47] <xangua> gbear14275: metacity --replace
[14:47] <maginot> lightstep, gvfs ?
[14:47] <lightstep> maginot, gnome virtual file system
[14:47] <gbear14275> xangua, THANK YOU!
[14:47] <dancallo> I installed Ubuntu Netbook Remix - 9.10 on my Acer Netbook and now I can't connect to UbuntuOne. There is a red X on this icon.
[14:47] <dancallo> Any ideas?
[14:47] <ActionParsnip> Maginto: you can use bind to make a lan dns for them to speed stuff up, or install dnsmasq on each system
[14:47] <lightstep> maginot, it's the component that sets all the items under Computer and under Network
[14:47] <maginot> lightstep, I think gvm is now with HAL
[14:47] <gbear14275> xangua, ok... so I take it this is an already reported problem?
[14:48] <xangua> gbear14275: no idea what are you refering
[14:48] <lightstep> maginot, ok, so how do i set mount options with hal?
[14:48] <xangua> dancallo: do you have an ubuntu account¿
[14:48] <dancallo> Yes, of course I do.
[14:48] <maginot> lightstep, actually I was googling here your question, http://usrportage.de/archives/38-DBUS,-Hal-and-gnome-volume-manager.html
[14:48] <gbear14275> xangua, the fact that after a package update I lose my windows manager
[14:49] <maginot> lightstep, but I'm still looking at...
[14:49] <maginot> lightstep, did you tried #gnome ? Or #gnome at irc.gimp.net ?
[14:49] <edakiri> ActionParsnip: I recommend gecko/firefox plugin "Customize Google"
[14:49] <maginot> lightstep, maybe is irc.gimp.org don't know for sure right now
[14:49] <lightstep> nope, i'll try there. thanks
[14:50] <gbear14275> xangua, I'm guessing it was some broken package or something...
[14:50] <lightstep> there's a channel here at freenode, i'll try there
[14:50] <ActionParsnip> Edakiri: I don't use crappy firefox no more
[14:50] <ancanta> thnx maginot ..im back :)
[14:50] <maginot> ancanta, working now?
[14:50] <dancallo> Can someone help me with my UbuntuOne issue?
[14:50] <Wren88> Hi everyone
[14:51] <ancanta> yeap! what was the problem ? last i installed was 'arping'   :/
[14:51] <Dr_Willis> dancallo:  theres also the #ubuntuone channel

[14:52] <maginot> ancanta, don't know, but I'm glad the fix worked =)
[14:52] <mrwes> :)
[14:52] <Wren88> I'm having hard time over here getting static to work with ubuntu 9.10 x64 virtual box vm
[14:52] <ancanta> thnx a lot maginot :)
[14:52] <maginot> np
[14:52] <ActionParsnip> Wren88: use /etc/network/interfaces file
[14:53] <Wren88> did that like 1/2 dozen time but wont work would like me to post it?
[14:54] <ActionParsnip> Wren88: sure just use a pastebin
[14:54] <mrwes> Is the Lucid Service Edition going to be LTS too?
[14:55] <homosaur> mrwest: yep
[14:56] <mrwes> homosaur, nice - thanks
[14:56] <mrwes> can I go from 8.04 LTS to 10.04?
[14:56] <toyman61> DVD-Video-output from DVD-Recorder. How to edit this in Ubuntu (removing commericals) and output it as DivX ?
[14:56] <hugli> Hi. I seem to have messed up kbd shortcut for switching to right workspace (ctrl-alt- ->). How can I restore it? I've tried 'System/Preferences/Keyboard Shortcuts' & gconf-editor, but I can't find it anywhere.
[14:56] <xangua> mrwes: yes
[14:56] <mrwes> toyman61, Avidemux can do that
[14:56] <homosaur> I think so

[14:57] <toyman61> mrwes, I have tried Avidemux. But it is not suitable for my use..
[14:57] <mrwes> toyman61, 10.04 has a new video editor called Pitivi
[14:58] <homosaur> The little interface and usability tweaks since last LTS server are really nice
[14:58] <toyman61> mrwes: But if I have av DVD-Video with menues and more than one movie on the DVD - will avidemux handle this ?
[14:58] <toyman61> av = a
[14:59] <mrwes> toyman61, should --- have you tried Handbrake ?
[14:59] <goustaros>  i bought a charger for my laptop. i can choose from a variety of voltage 12-20V. but it gives 5.5A max. By laptop on the back says it needs 19V and 4.74A. is it safe to use this charger?
[14:59] <toyman61> mrwes: No, I have not tried Handbrake. Used to use Pinnacle Studio on Windows... :-)
[14:59] <rocket16> Is there any GTK+ GUI for Octave? I tried Yago, but it is outdated, and QtOctave is Qt.
[14:59] <ActionParsnip> Mrwes: that's offtopic here
[14:59] <mrwes> ActionParsnip, gotcha
[15:00] <ActionParsnip> Mrwes: sorry wrong nick
[15:00] <mrwes> oh
[15:00] <mrwes> heh
[15:00] <ActionParsnip> Goustaros: that is offtopic here, try in #ubuntu-offtopic
[15:00] <mrwes> ActionParsnip, he was technically asking for "support" :)
[15:00] <toyman61> mrwes: I want to read the movie(s) from my DVD-Video, edit the movies (removing commercials and so on) and then output the video as DivX - all in one program..
[15:00] <mrwes> toyman61, PM me
[15:00] <lightstep> i'm trying out Lucid, and the "gnome" package is not installed. when trying to install it, it turns out to depend on "epiphany-extensions" and "swfdec-mozilla", which are conflicting packages. what should i do?
[15:01] <ardchoille> !lucid | lightstep
[15:01] <HawkMan_> what's the package to install to configure visual effects again?
[15:01] <toyman61> mrwes, I have been away from IRC to long - who do I PM ?  *silly question*
[15:01] <mrwes> heh
[15:01] <ardchoille> toyman61: /query mrwes
[15:01] <mrwes> sigh
[15:02] <lightstep> ok, so in general, what do i do with conflicting packages?
[15:02] <mrwes> toyman61, I just told you what to do in a private message
[15:02] <jac0> i have a problem with ma bluetooth..something to do wit passkey agent..requesting assistance,,,,
[15:03] <ActionParsnip> Mrwes: its not ubuntu specific as its voltage and power related which is hardware related so is OS independant :)
[15:04] <mrwes> ActionParsnip, understood
[15:04] <haochela> how can i get usb devices to automount in fluxbox and fvwm?
[15:04] <jac0> i have a problem with ma bluetooth..something to do wit passkey agent..requesting assistance,,,,
[15:04] <goustaros>  i bought a charger for my laptop. i can choose from a variety of voltage 12-20V. but it gives 5.5A max. By laptop on the back says it needs 19V and 4.74A. is it safe to use this charger?
[15:05] <zamba> goustaros: why do you ask here?
[15:05] <zamba> goustaros: how is this ubuntu related?
[15:05] <llutz> !ot | goustaros
[15:05] <mrwes> heh
[15:05] <ActionParsnip> Gousaros: its not discussed here. Please head to #hardware and/or #ubuntu-offtopic
[15:05] <mrwes> goustaros, you needed to say, "Will Ubuntu run properly with a charger that outputs 5.5A only"
[15:05] <mrwes> heh
[15:06] <jac0> goustaros, naaa its nat..coz its gonna finish yo batt
[15:06] <xomp> crazy question, how would I give root:root access to all files/folders in a directory recursivley?
[15:06] <llutz> xomp: chown -R
[15:06] <mrwes> xomp: with the -R you can
[15:07] <theadmin> xomp: chown -R root:root /folderz
[15:07] <ActionParsnip> Xomp: sudo chrown -R root:root /path/to/folder
[15:07] <xomp> thanks guys :)
[15:07] <haochela> how can I get usb devices to automount in fluxbox and fvwm?
[15:08] <bullgard> Why does '~$ wmctrl -a Selector' not raise the window and give focus to the Window Selector applet?
[15:08] <mrwes> haochela, how about using a root cron with @reboot mount /device/usb /media/mydrive ?
[15:09] <Dr_Willis> haochela:  you would have to set up some sort of service to monitor/automount them.  if you wanted them to mount on the fly. Or there may be some other drive-mount tools in the repois that show icons/menus when a new device is inserted
[15:09] <haochela> hmm so you just put the cron in to start at reboot instead of scheduling?
[15:09] <jrib> haochela: check out halevt...
[15:09] <Dr_Willis> actually i think theres a way to run nautilus to monitor/automount devices.. but ive never tried it
[15:09] <jrib> haochela: or just run the gnome daemon that mounts things (gnome-volume-manager)
[15:10] <haochela> I'm looking to do it w/o nautilus -- too much overhead
[15:10] <jrib> haochela: neither uses nautilus
[15:10] <theadmin> Isn't there some command like mountall or mount -a?
[15:10] <jrib> theadmin: that just reloads fstab basically
[15:10] <theadmin> jrib: Ah, yes, indeec
[15:10] <theadmin> s/indeec/indeed
[15:11] <xomp> theadmin: when I did chown -R root:root /folderz it changed the owner and group to root:root like I expected. But it gave everything only read-only permission. Anyway to fix this?
[15:11] <llutz> xomp: man chmod
[15:11] <jrib> !permissions > xomp
[15:11] <ActionParsnip> Xomp: look into chmod, it uses the same -R switch
[15:12] <theadmin> xomp: chmod -R 660 (or 770, depends) /folderz
[15:12] <xomp> ah yes forgot chmod haha thanks
[15:12] <diegoviola> can i update ubuntu 8.04 lts to the latest one?
[15:12] <diegoviola> ubuntu server
[15:12] <mrwes> xomp chmod
[15:12] <theadmin> diegoviola: Both yes and know, you need to update to Interpid, then to Jaunty, THEN to Karmic
[15:12] <jrib> diegoviola: you should probably wait until april 29th so you can upgrade from 8.04 to 10.04 directly
[15:12] <theadmin> s/know/no
[15:12] <llutz> theadmin: you don't want 660 on folders/
[15:13] <theadmin> llutz: oops indeed
[15:13] <ActionParsnip> Diegoviola: when lucid comes out yes. You will need to upgrade through the other releases first I believe. I think you can go lts to lts
[15:13] <ActionParsnip> Jrib: thanks :)
[15:13] <mrwes> ActionParsnip, you have to step into it on the servers ?
[15:14] <theadmin> hm, about permissions, does such permission as 000 (full-block) even exist?
[15:14] <llutz> why not?
[15:14] <theadmin> llutz: Well just wondering
[15:14] <jrib> theadmin: yeah, even 0000
[15:15] <llutz> theadmin: i use 000 for mountpoints to prevent getting stuff copied in, when not mounted
[15:15] <jrib> llutz: that's a good idea
[15:15] <theadmin> jrib: isn't it OGW? what would 4th null do?
[15:16] <jrib> theadmin: setuid, setgid, sticky
[15:16] <theadmin> ah, those, never figured what they even do
[15:16] <theadmin> llutz: it'd come back when unmounted, not much of a problem
[15:16] <llutz> theadmin: man chmod :)
[15:17] <theadmin> llutz: man: command not found. XD on windows now
[15:17] <ActionParsnip> Yo yo yo
[15:18] <mrwes> heh...kab00m
[15:18] <mrwes> running beta 2?
[15:18] <theadmin> ubottu: lucid | mrwes
[15:18] <ActionParsnip> Mrwes: 1G speed on a coach = kaboom
[15:18] <mrwes> ahh
[15:18] <mrwes> theadmin, come on
[15:19] <theadmin> mrwes: It wasn't me who wrote those rules ;) And rules must be obeyed to prevent chaos.
[15:19] <mrwes> nod
[15:19] <theadmin> NOD? That's an antivirus, right?
[15:19] <mrwes> I never even mentioned Lucid though }:)
[15:19] <theadmin> mrwes: You said "beta 2"
[15:19] <solexious> How can I only rm files with 0 size?
[15:20] <theadmin> solexious: I think find has a size flag, look into it
[15:20] <ActionParsnip> Theadmin: or an evil faction from command and conquer ;)
[15:20] <mrwes> coulda been beta 2 for Karmic :P
[15:20] <aditya> where are ubuntu login details and passwords stored
[15:20] <theadmin> huh, that's one good question
[15:20] <ActionParsnip> Solexious: it'll take some fancy scripting. I'd ask in #bash if nobody replys
[15:21] <lightstep> aditya, the passwords are in the file "/etc/shadow"
[15:21] <llutz> aditya: /etc/passwd /etc/shadow
[15:21] <solexious> ActionParsnip: thanks
[15:21] <ActionParsnip> Aditya: in /etc/shadow and /etc/passwd
[15:21] <theadmin> "shadow"??? lolwut? XDDD
[15:21] <sinthetek> i'm having trouble figuring out how to get ubuntu/pulse to use multiple soundcards. it seems whenever i play anything the second card gets muted and i cannot unmute with alsamixer or anything
[15:21] <lightstep> they used to be in passwd, but it was considered less secure
[15:21] <sinthetek> besides this, pulse ends up using ~20% cpu and totem uses like 50%
[15:22] <Wren88> anyone good with crypt disks on ubuntu
[15:22] <theadmin> passwd reminds me of htpasswd utility i used to use a lot back when i attempted to run a simple server...
[15:23] <HawkMan_> what's the package to install to configure visual effects again?
[15:23] <lightstep> passwd is readable to anyone, shadow only to root. passwd also contains real names and groups membership, so it was useful to keep it
[15:23] <lightstep> HawkMan, compiz
[15:23] <theadmin> !ccsm | HawkMan_
[15:23] <xangua> HawkMan_: compiz settings manager
[15:23] <jrib> !away > RaMcHiP-Away
[15:23] <teguh> Where to know status Restricted Drivers on XUbuntu karmic, on older xubuntu at Application > System > Restricted Drivers Manager
[15:23] <aditya> my college net blocks irc ports so i cannot use irc clients. is there a way to bypass these restrictions ?
[15:24] <HawkMan_> simple-ccsm that's the one, thanks
[15:24] <llutz> aditya: tunnel it (ssh, httptunnel, whatever)
[15:24] <ActionParsnip> Aditya: use the web client to freenode ;)
[15:24] <theadmin> aditya: Maybe using a different port is possible. Freenode has a web gateway. Look on http://webchat.freenode.net - also consider using mibbit http://mibbit.com
[15:25] <theadmin> aditya: That, however, was NOT an Ubuntu question :P
[15:26] <Ascavasaion> How do I set the dictionary... for applications like XChat, Pidjin, etc.  When I right click the text box for entering messages in Pidjin it gives me 5 different strains of English... how can I make the language I choose there the permanent one?
[15:27] <m1chael> i have a home network with 2 routers... 1 router is simply plugged in to the other router... right now im an on a wifi with the main router... is it possible that i could ssh to another machine on the other router?
[15:27] <ActionParsnip> Ascavasaion: check in language under administration (remembering here, I'm on the move)
[15:28] <Ascavasaion> ActionParsnip: Okay, be right back.
[15:28] <ActionParsnip> M1chael: sure, simply use it's ip address and the routers will work out the path
[15:30] <m1chael> okay! =)
[15:32] <ManDay> Is it even REMOTELY possible to use a color scheme that is DARK and STILL have a working computer? In GNOME, I've tried quite a bunch of themes from gnome-art but everything that is darker than gray is complete MESS as not a single application conforms to the Themese (even Firefox menus and input boxes get unreadable  - black on black, white on white). Any experiences?
[15:32] <jpds> ManDay: DarkRoom?
[15:32] <jrib> ManDay: there was that "dust" theme some time ago.  You tried that?
[15:32] <arvind_khadri> ManDay, try dust
[15:32] <ManDay> jpds, I'm through most of them
[15:33] <ManDay> Ok I'll recheck dust but I'm confident that I had it
[15:33] <jrib> ManDay: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/Incoming/DustTheme
[15:34] <ManDay> (but seriously why would it matter if FF and others give a s anyway about the theme and use the theme (dark) for the BG but their own color (black) for the text..)
[15:34] <aditya> ?'hacking'
[15:34] <ManDay> ah i see, separate ff theme
[15:34] <ManDay> now thats... annoying, but a solution
[15:34] <ManDay> !'hacking'
[15:35] <ActionParsnip> !hacking
[15:35] <ActionParsnip> Factoids don't use 's
[15:35] <da65> bunt rocks, thanks a lot
[15:35] <jrib> ManDay: you could switch to epiphany.  The theme will probably work fine there
[15:36] <ManDay> epiwhat?
[15:36] <ManDay> is that an engine?
[15:36] <ManDay> or a theme?
[15:36] <jrib> ManDay: epiphany is a browser
[15:36] <da65> its a clone of pidgin I think
[15:36] <jrib> !info epiphany-browser
[15:36] <ManDay> abandon firefox? not before i die!
[15:37] <ManDay> oh, its intuitive!
[15:37] <ManDay> now that makes me reconsider - ill have a look
[15:37] <da65> ah, thats empathy lol
[15:37] <da65> just upgrading to 10.04 :)
[15:38] <Ascavasaion> da65: Not sure you could call it an upgrade hehehe  but it is interesting to say the least.
[15:38] <ManDay> !lucid | da65
[15:38] <ManDay> tststs please not here :P
[15:38] <da65> will see :) has lots of new features?  So I was reading earlier

[15:40] <da65> hi :)
[15:40] <ManDay> havent even slightly checked it out so far. only thing i know and that interests me is that a serious bug with the intel drivers is fixed - hence reason enough for me to update

[15:47] <Ascavasaion> I have a UK keyboard, but I am in South Africa.  HOw do I set language settings so that I can have my locale as South Africa, but it uses British spelling and British keyboard?
[15:47] <ManDay_> uhm wait, im still here?
[15:47] <da65> what about paths etc
[15:47] <ManDay> erm
[15:47] <ManDay> I just installed Dust, why did I install it again??
[15:48] <Ascavasaion> ManDay: Because ashes to ashes and dust to dust? :)
[15:48] <ManDay> looks as ugly as all the other boxy themes
[15:48] <vick11_88> can anyone please tell me, on which channel I can get the solution regarding network programming and creation of tcp/ip protocol in c??? i need help just about this... please help!!!
[15:48] <kernel_geek> da65: thanks
[15:48] <ManDay> when i installed the merrine engine it said something about "italian glasswork art" - dust isnt exactly that
[15:48] <lightstep> Ascavasaion, System > Preferences > Keyboard > Layouts
[15:48] <kernel_geek> da65: I dont think h paths matter
[15:48] <kernel_geek> * will be an issue
[15:48] <da65> just a thought
[15:48] <ManDay> is that a bug on my sys or do look almost all themes look the same?
[15:48] <lightstep> vick11_88, maybe ask in #c ?
[15:49] <jrib> ManDay: see if it looks like the screenshot in the page I gave you
[15:49] <lightstep> vick11_88, if it's a c-related, and not socket-related issue
[15:49] <ManDay> jrib, absolutly not.
[15:49] <ManDay> and its not dark...
[15:49] <jrib> ManDay: well there you go...
[15:49] <ManDay> go? where?
[15:49] <ManDay> !dust
[15:49] <Ascavasaion> lightstep: That setting is fine... but when I set my locale to South Africa is stops using the United Kingdom English dictionary.
[15:49] <jrib> ManDay: obviously, it should look like the screenshot
[15:49] <vick11_88> please help
[15:50] <ManDay> ill give you a screen, judge for urself
[15:50] <jrib> ManDay: I don't want to judge
[15:50] <da65> Read DOCS/HTML/en/codecs.html } kernel
[15:50] <jrib> ManDay: I'm just saying that if it doesn't look like the screenshot, then something is wrong

[15:51] <da65> yeah, not working in pidgin?
[15:51] <vick11_88> lightstep: it's related socket programming
[15:51] <kernel_geek> da65: Its working for me in pidgin =/
[15:51] <da65> hmm

[15:52] <Troldrik> Halp... my lucid box doesn't boot anymore after an apt-get upgrade. Not sure exactly it stalls... I'd say somewhere in the initrd. Never gets to starting the daemons.
[15:52] <rocket16> !lucid | Troldrik
[15:52] <kernel_geek> Troldrik: Try starting without the init, or an older kernel...

[15:53] <wertwertgfhjrer> which file determines what window or desktop managers are available during login?
[15:53] <ManDay> ok, what is wrong? Why do themes never work out? Why is it always white text on white background in firefox? why does everylook boxy, everything ugly? I get no warnings, the windows change "as if" a new theme applied, but the new theme doesnt look like i want it!!

[16:02] <Azeotrope> how do i scan for wireless acces points?
[16:02] <llutz> Azeotrope: iwlist s

[16:03] <xjkx> iflema: thanks, all i want is the printer to print, scan, and copy(like i put a page of a book i have in my room and it prints for me), maybe its a problem with the english language but i don't know what they mean by photo cards and "PC initiated copy"
[16:03] <guntbert> vick11_88: its actually ##c
[16:04] <vick11_88> thanks
[16:04] <vick11_88> guntbert: thanks
[16:04] <da65> snobs vic :)
[16:04] <guntbert> Azeotrope: iwlist scan should do what you need (loop it yourself)
[16:04] <guntbert> vick11_88: you're welcome :-)
[16:05] <ManDay> can THIS be true -> DUST theme chosen and looking like THIS: http://s1.directupload.net/images/100410/owivp7j9.png
[16:05] <vick11_88> i'm posting, and it said that it can't be send to channel... guntbert:
[16:05] <guntbert> vick11_88: could be you need to be registered
[16:06] <guntbert> !register | vick11_88
[16:06] <xjkx> iflema: if i got it right, the "pc initiated" thing is the copy feature, which isn't supported :s
[16:06] <vick11_88> ok
[16:07] <darksider> psycho_oreos, hey man. thanks again for your help, my laptop is doin great now. got time for a quick question? not help-related, just curiosity

[16:08] <iflema> xjkx ya good to go....... thankyou HP
[16:10] <ManDay> nvm

[16:22] <forrest76> Hi guys....only had ubuntu for a day now...very impressed so far. I am running 9.10 and trying to install compiz. Getting this. compizconfig-settings-manager:
[16:22] <forrest76>  Depends: python-compizconfig (>=0.8.2) but it is not installable. Anyone seen that before?
[16:23] <h00k> forrest76: how are you trying to install it?
[16:23] <elnur> Does anyone know a good video converter for Ubuntu?
[16:23] <h00k> elnur: try Handbrake
[16:23] <hiexpo> forrest76, did you update your hardware drivers
[16:23] <forrest76> Hook I tried via command line and via the synapic
[16:24] <guntbert> isoman2kx:  Do you have an ubuntu support question?
[16:24] <da65> should I close all programs while 10.04 is installing
[16:24] <forrest76> Hiexpo I have updated all available updates via Update Manager
[16:24] <isoman2kx> not currently guntbert. but i use it frequently so I'd like to idle here if I have one
[16:24] <UnderSampled> forrest76: are you able to enable compiz effects from the theme manager?
[16:25] <forrest76> Lemmie try Under
[16:25] <UnderSampled> *appearance preferences
[16:25] <LFC_fan> were there regression with Radeonhd driver from Beta1 to Beta2?
[16:25] <hiexpo> forrest76, go to system/adm/ hardware drivers and use the propitiatory driver
[16:25] <guntbert> isoman2kx: be welcome :-) - but keep in mind that this channel is for support only :-)
[16:26] <isoman2kx> thank you guntbert. I will keep it in mind
[16:26] <isoman2kx> :)
[16:26] <UnderSampled> hiexpo: just a suggestion, perhaps you should use something other than a forward slash when selecting items in a menu
[16:27] <LFC_fan> like ->
[16:27] <forrest76> I am already using NVIDIA accelerated graphincs driver version 185
[16:27] <UnderSampled> hiexpo: perhaps system->adm->hardware
[16:27] <elnur> h00k, thanks. looks promising
[16:28] <hiexpo> UnderSampled, its the same thing   but ya
[16:28] <h00k> elnur: cool
[16:28] <hiexpo> in the terminal do u use arrows
[16:28] <forrest76> Hiexpo I am already using NVIDIA accelerated graphincs driver version 185
[16:29] <log|in> anyone here use efnet #ubuntu ?
[16:29] <hiexpo> forrest76, you need to update hardware drivers
[16:30] <forrest76> Undersampled: I dont see any option to enable compiz effects from the theme manager
[16:30] <h00k> forrest76: Fire up Update Manager, do a "check" and then install all available updates
[16:30] <darksider> can someone link me to a good starting point for making my own linux distro using ubuntu as a starting point/base? i don't mean the little tweaked-release versions of ubuntu with modified pre-installed apps, i mean a proper distro...i want to start working on it or at least start learning how to do it. it is purely for educational purposes.
[16:30] <UnderSampled> forrest76: there is a tab called "visual effects"
[16:30] <forrest76> Hook I did that last night
[16:30] <UnderSampled> forrest76: are you in gnome or kde?
[16:30] <hiexpo> !offtopic

[16:31] <darksider> thanks for the chanlink though
[16:31] <h00k> darksider: it's alright, offtopic isn't the best place for that either

[16:33] <forrest76> I dont see any options though to add stuff and take away stuff.
[16:33] <My-Computer> im running on lubuntu 10.04 with a gnome desktop when i use samba to make a shared folder i only have the linux option and not the windows option what do i need to download to correct this?

[16:33] <maginot> darksider, check it out www.linuxfromscratch.org
[16:33] <hiexpo> in order to use copiz to its full capability one must aslso instal simple ccsm
[16:34] <forrest76> lemmie see if I can isntall that Hiexpo
[16:34] <darksider> maginot, thanks man- i remember seeing that site years ago but it was beyond my understanding. but i think now im older i should be capable of doing it or, at least, learning how to

[16:37] <bullgard5> My 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?
[16:38] <q_> my computer 666 is dead

[16:39] <llutz> bullgard5: sudo pkill X
[16:39] <hiexpo> forrest76, let me find it for u
[16:39] <zubin71> hi, is there any way to know what all files are installed when i install mysql?
[16:40] <h00k> forrest76: If you fire up the Ubuntu Software Center, you should be able to find it there
[16:40] <llutz> zubin71: dpkg -L mysql
[16:40] <hiexpo> forrest76,  just go in synaptic and type ccsm
[16:40] <forrest76> I did Hiexpo
[16:41] <greezmun1ey> hiexpo: its called simple-ccsm
[16:41] <hiexpo> not simple-ccsm just ccsm
[16:41] <greezmun1ey> ah?
[16:41] <greezmun1ey> hmm
[16:41] <hiexpo> just type that and it will come up
[16:41] <forrest76> I dont have an option on my desktop for visual theme . On my visual theme tab there is no option for it.
[16:42] <forrest76> Hiexpo it does not come up.
[16:42] <forrest76> ccsm returns nothing.
[16:42] <hiexpo> ok one sec
[16:42] <forrest76> could be that I ahve done all the updates. Seems I am out of sync with everyone.
[16:42] <greezmunkey> l
[16:42] <forrest76> I have wow working though....done several tweaks.
[16:43] <hiexpo> thats weird because its in the repos
[16:43] <darksider> what does the officially-supported/officially-recommended repository amount to, TOTAL [in size] ?
[16:44] <mrwes> darksider, hrmm...I think you can d/l a full repo DVD
[16:44] <zubin71> i have mysql installed. i need it to be "completely" removed and installed again. i just did "apt-get remove --purge mysql-server" but still mysql exists as a daemon. any way i can completely remove it?
[16:45] <hiexpo> click on all than type ccsm it should come up
[16:45] <greezmunkey> llutz: so -L lists all of the install locations?
[16:45] <Presario2500> where can I find some games that don't suck?
[16:45] <forrest76> I am hiexpo....

[16:45] <mrwes> darksider: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=352460
[16:45] <hiexpo> Presario2500, go to nixie pixels site she has it
[16:45] <llutz> greezmunkey: dpkg -L package        lists contents of package (if package is installed) "man dpkg" for more info
[16:45] <UnderSampled> Presario2500: the software manager
[16:46] <greezmunkey> llutz: looking
[16:46] <darksider> mrwes, really? what is the total size of all the repositories? (i mean all the ones in the standard karmic sources.list [including the one #commented by default]

[16:48] <hiexpo> forrest76,  did u enable all your repos yet
[16:48] <mrwes> darksider, actually, here http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/downloadmirrors  you can d/l the DVD
[16:48] <forrest76> should I maybe add something to my software sources?
[16:48] <darksider> would be pointless to have a fast ubuntu box with ALL the packages from ALL the repositories on it?
[16:48] <darksider> well..pointless, but awesome ?
[16:48] <hiexpo> yes go in there enable them all
[16:48] <FredZeppelin> Hi all seem to be haveing a bit of trouble getting ubantu to load on a toshiba laptop can any one help ? p.s. I am a linyux noob, however am pretty good with dos command line
[16:48] <mrwes> darksider, version 9.10 is 7.9gb
[16:48] <llutz> darksider: just pointless
[16:49] <pjp3rd> hi id like to set up monthly bandwidth quotas for my home network something like http://www.digirain.com/en/trafficquota-overview.html but ive been googling like crazy and i cant find anything like that for ubuntu, any suggestions?
[16:49] <darksider> FredZeppelin, i had a toshiba sattelite A120 (i think it was that model) and ubuntu tends to be just find with toshiba in my opinion
[16:49] <mrwes> darksider, this is the US Mirror sight http://mirror.mcs.anl.gov/pub/ubuntu-iso/DVDs/ubuntu/9.10/release/
[16:49] <h00k> darksider: you can set up your own local mirror, if you'd like
[16:49] <mrwes> darksider, oops 3.9gb
[16:49] <darksider> mrwes, thanks.   llutz, cheers. i just think it would be fun to experience all of the apps. good way to find all the apps that i like/find useful
[16:49] <FredZeppelin> well I have  satellite and keeps coming up with error missing kernal
[16:49] <llutz> darksider: if you want to use your knowledge, why don't you join an existing project and help there? there are more than enough distros available
[16:50] <hiexpo> forrest76,  after u enable them sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get upgrade
[16:50] <darksider> llutz, well..i don't know if im at THAT standard of programming skill
[16:50] <greezmunkey> pjp3rd: don't know if it will work for you, have you looked at trickle?
[16:50] <RDJ> hello all
[16:50] <darksider> llutz, doing my own modifications and then distro was kinda a self-testing technique
[16:50] <llutz> darksider: there are other ways to help, not only coding
[16:50] <darksider> llutz,  but programming is what i enjoy/am good at
[16:50] <darksider> llutz,  what 'other things' did you have in mind
[16:51] <darksider> llutz, debugging/fixing/patching/etc... ?
[16:51] <forrest76> Hiexpo even the pre release and unsupported?
[16:51] <llutz> darksider: e.g. packaging
[16:51] <hiexpo> i do but thats your choice
[16:51] <pjp3rd> greezmunkey: um that looks like a traffic shaper, im not worried by the speed rather by the monthly usage
[16:51] <darksider> FredZeppelin, sounds like a bad linux installation if the kernel is missing... but im no expert. try asking your question to others
[16:52] <bullgard5> llutz: '~$ sudo pkill X' has no effect.
[16:52] <darksider> llutz,  ah...mmm ive been trying to make my own little script package. currently it backs up using rsync (with a few little modifications like optional exclusions and optional extra folders to backup other than /home/user/) and compresses it in a .tgz
[16:53] <greezmunkey> pjp3rd: about the only way you could really do that with any os would involve using your server as a network access proxy of some sort...
[16:53] <zubin71> llutz, is there any way i can restore a database without logging in; if i am the root?
[16:53] <FredZeppelin> darksider I just downloaded it from the ubantu site. also i tried a knoppix version and it would not boot either. although both boot fine on my acer desktop
[16:54] <BluesKaj-Laptop> it's not an install without a kernel
[16:54] <darksider> FredZeppelin, sorry dude but that's beyond my understanding...im currently just trying to START learning about HOW linux works.
[16:54] <darksider> but what BluesKaj-Laptop has just said is what i figured
[16:54] <darksider> dodgy installation
[16:54] <darksider> FredZeppelin, can you boot from LiveCD on your TOSHIBA laptop?
[16:54] <FredZeppelin> ahh ok thanks darkside
[16:54] <pjp3rd> greezmunkey, k im prepeared to pass all traffic through my server, but im not sure how im supposed to enforce the limits?
[16:54] <llutz> zubin71: mysqladmin?
[16:55] <FredZeppelin> never tried it. I only want to be able to get on the HDD so I can save buddies files. then reinstall winders for him
[16:56] <FredZeppelin> was working fine yesterday till windows suddenly and mystryiously put a and admin password on repair
[16:56] <BluesKaj-Laptop> darksider, FredZeppelin even windows uses a kernel
[16:56] <forrest76> Fred you dont have to install on the hdd just boot from the dvd and use a thumb/external drive to save his files.
[16:57] <zubin71> llutz, thnkx!
[16:57] <jbendotnet> hi
[16:57] <greezmunkey> pjp3rd: hmm probably squid could do it, I'm looking.
[16:57] <hiexpo> !hi
[16:57] <zubin71> jbendotnet, hey!

[16:57] <jbendotnet> woops, trying to upgrade and keep getting http://paste.ubuntu.com/412172/
[16:58] <FredZeppelin> so just for claification the kernal is in the OS. correct?

[16:58] <abu1230> hi I want to back from ubuntu 10.04 to 9.10 what I do
[16:58] <forrest76> Fred did you enable boot from CD/DVD rom in the bios of your buddys windows puter through the bios?
[16:59] <kernel_geek> abu1230: Reinstall?
[16:59] <h00k> abu1230: you'll have to reinstall 9.10
[16:59] <FredZeppelin> no no  good gawd no i don't want to compile my own i want his system to run again lol.
[16:59] <h00k> abu1230: there's no 'rollback'
[16:59] <overmind> abu1230: We don't support that, it is very dangeorus, you can lose all data
[16:59] <FredZeppelin> ok so then one fix maybe to redownload ubantu and try again?
[16:59] <pjp3rd> greezmunkey, thanks my first thoughts were to use quid, however wouldnt that only be for web traffic? what about if ppl use other protocols like bittorrent?
[16:59] <abu1230> can I install 9.10 with out lose data
[17:00] <hiexpo> back to the ole drawing board  :)
[17:00] <h00k> abu1230: if your /home is on a separate partition, sure
[17:00] <FredZeppelin> oh ya that was the easy part.
[17:00] <h00k> !home | abu1230
[17:00] <kernel_geek> abu1230: Backup!
[17:00] <UnderSampled> abu1230: you could backup your data and reinstall fresh
[17:01] <hiexpo> forrest76,  did ya getterrockin?
[17:01] <FredZeppelin> ya thats what i told him to do before. last week he had MBR fault i fix that told him to back up . yesterday he came with system config problem. and he never backed up.
[17:01] <greezmunkey> pjp3rd: according to their site, squid will deal with multiple protocols.
[17:03] <emergion> helllo all

[17:03] <Chris___> I have just installed ubuntu 9.10 on a dell dimension 3000, video is set on 640 x480.  It has integrated graphics, so I changed bios setting to 8mb and got other resolution options other than 640 x 480.  The problem is that I cannot click the ok button due to resolution on my display gui.  is there some way to change the resolution in the config script?
[17:03] <emergion> could someone please give me some advice on Jackd? I have it working but when I start it my system seems to lose sound I cannot play mp3s anymore etc ?
[17:04] <emergion> I want to use it for rosegarden and midi capabilities
[17:04] <axel781> hello
[17:06] <UnderSampled> emergion: have you tried on #jack?
[17:06] <axplayer> heya all, quick question. 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 you
[17:06] <emergion> I will
[17:06] <emergion> Still though I think it has to do with my systems pulseaudio / gnome config
[17:06] <SwedeMike> axplayer: most likely this won't cause any issue.
[17:07] <pjp3rd> greezmunkey: looks good even though cant find debian package for ubuntu :-( but im still not sure how its supposed to help for other protocols besides www
[17:07] <iflema> Chris___ hold alt + left click anywhere on the window to move it around (up)
[17:08] <lanlan> 有人吗
[17:08] <h00k> !Chinese | lanlan
[17:08] <axplayer> so SwedeMike. so basically the software shouldn't complain eh?
[17:08] <greezmunkey> pjp3rd: can't help you there, but I imagine there are forums for that. Perhaps setting up a test server to bang around on will answer some of your questions! :)
[17:08] <h00k> I'm hping I got that right.
[17:08] <Chris___> iflema thanks, I will try it right now
[17:08] <SwedeMike> axplayer: most likely it'll work fine. it's a recommendation, it can use swap file instead, your computer might be slower due to this but it'll most likely work.
[17:09] <h00k> pjp3rd: try #ubuntu-server also
[17:09] <FredZeppelin> umm I think I am right in this. If I am getting the error msg. "invalid or corrupt Kernel image" I should just srap the cd . and burn another copy?
[17:09] <axplayer> SwedeMike, thanks man. appreciated.
[17:09] <h00k> !md5sum | FredZeppelin
[17:09] <FredZeppelin> srap = scrap
[17:10] <youssef> Good afternoon. I have installed Ubuntu with wubi. When I choose to boot on Ubuntu. I get a "grub>" prompt and it does nothing. There are a lot of option available: But with "boot" it does not find any kernel. It is a fresh install from a few minutes ago. Can someone help me?
[17:10] <pjp3rd> greezmunkey, i mean its a good start, that the sort of thing i was looking for just i dont see why it has to be done through a proxy if all the traffic is going through my box anyhow
[17:10] <Chris___> iflema thanks that took care of the problem
[17:10] <UnderSampled> youssef: what are your options?
[17:11] <pjp3rd> h00k, thanks
[17:11] <greezmunkey> pjp3rd: If you want to control the traffic, you have to have control of it, make sense?
[17:11] <greezmunkey> pjp3rd: hense the proxy
[17:11] <youssef> UnderSampled: I did not use any option (I am not a computer expert) I expected grub to boot automatically
[17:12] <UnderSampled> youssef: I was asking what it told you were the options
[17:12] <UnderSampled> so I might be able to help you pick
[17:12] <arjun> .
[17:12] <arjun> can someone recommend a advanced c++ tutorial for me, so that i too can take part in oss development. im quite comfortable with the basics
[17:12] <pjp3rd> greezmunkey, if everything is going through my server that means i have control of it
[17:12] <hiexpo> !pm
[17:13] <youssef> UnderSampled:  I had stub like "boot" and with tab it allows me to access "/bin", "/sbin", etc
[17:13] <UnderSampled> youssef: ok
[17:13] <greezmunkey> pjp, not really, I mean you can place a firewall, and tweak that, but a simple firewall isn't going to check a userdatabase and verify traffic limits, right?
[17:14] <UnderSampled> youssef: did anything pop up before you got there?
[17:14] <UnderSampled> (like a list of possible OSes?
[17:14] <iFire> is there a page about how www-data works?
[17:15] <DDAZZA0> Hello, Why can't I watch DVDs? How can I watch dvds on ubuntu?
[17:15] <greezmunkey> pjp3rd: anyway, good luck with that - I have to go.
[17:15] <h00k> !dvd | DDAZZA0
[17:15] <iFire> I'm trying to use nginx and I'm getting permission denied errors
[17:15] <pjp3rd> greezmunkey, yip but squid just seems like an overkill to me, and a headache cus i have to worry about making sure they only use squid as well as the squid works for everything they need
[17:15] <GNU\colossus> iFire: what do you mean? www-data is Debian's standard user (and group) for HTTP server related files.
[17:15] <arjun> can someone recommend an "advanced c++ tutorial" for me, so that i can take part in oss development . im quite comfortable with the basics.
[17:15] <iFire> well I manually created the web dirs
[17:15] <youssef> UnderSampled: No I get first a kind of Windows dual screen with three option (Windows, Ubuntu, Memory check) when I choose Ubuntu, I get a grub prompt instead of directly booting on Ubuntu
[17:15] <iFire> so the permissions are wrong somehow
[17:16] <iFire> do I have to add my user to the www-data group?
[17:16] <axplayer> hey, random question, is you mess around with a lot of the commands, as in 'just trying stuff out' how possible is it to mess everything up and breaking everything? should a new linux user be careful with messing around or what? any opinions, thoughts?
[17:16] <llutz> arjun: http://www.cprogramming.com/tutorial.html
[17:16] <iFire> right now /home/username is drwxrwx---   7 me me
[17:16] <BlubbTec> axplayer: you can always use a live cd
[17:16] <UnderSampled> youssef: what happens if you do memory check?
[17:17] <axplayer> so you can break stuff just by being: hey,t hat looks like a fun command...../execute command .......blue screen of the penguin, .....ahh, crap.
[17:18] <iFire> GNU\colossus what should I do some that my www-data user can access my public_html and yet the owner/group is still me:me
[17:18] <iFire> hmm
[17:18] <arjun> llutz: ive already gone through most of the articles there i need to learn to write system programs
[17:18] <youssef> UnderSampled: I did not try, I assume it does a Ram check. Since it is quite new laptop (less than three months) and did not have any problem under Windows, I did not try. Should I?
[17:18] <iFire> I think apache su to the user right?
[17:18] <forrest76> Well I give up on compiz config menu. Thanks for trying guys. Reckon the system is pretty enough without it.
[17:19] <forrest76> Do we have a channel for chewing the fat with other Ubuntu users?
[17:19] <llutz> arjun: its offtopic here, maybe you'll find better ideas in c++-channels           /msg alis list *c++*
[17:19] <guntbert> axplayer: as long as you don't execute the commands "as root" you can do no damage to the system - your personal data might be at risk though
[17:20] <iFire> personal data is important ;)
[17:20] <UnderSampled> youssef:  It is included in Ubuntu
[17:20] <GNU\colossus> iFire: chmod it so that "others" can read/execute the directory
[17:20] <SparkyFlary> How strong should a web server password be?
[17:20] <axplayer> ahh, nice, and so maybe the logical thing would be to create a separate account then, eh?
[17:20] <iFire> SparkyFlary use a ssh key and a password
[17:20] <iFire> :)
[17:20] <iFire> it'll be strong enough
[17:21] <UnderSampled> youssef: so using it might be able to test grub
[17:21] <SparkyFlary> i want something that's strong and easy to remember
[17:21] <iFire> SparkyFlary use apg
[17:21] <h00k> SparkyFlary: how important is the data on it?
[17:21] <youssef> UnderSampled:  should I look for something else after my reboot?
[17:21] <iFire> SparkyFlary http://www.adel.nursat.kz/apg/
[17:21] <UnderSampled> well, after the memory test, it should reboot
[17:22] <SparkyFlary> not very im just messing around with stuff
[17:22] <iFire> SparkyFlary apt-get install apg
[17:22] <youssef> UnderSampled thanks. See you
[17:22] <DDAZZA0> What is the best way to transfer files between 2 networked home pcs? (ssh?)
[17:22] <iFire> ddAZZA is windows a requirement?
[17:22] <DDAZZA0> no both running ubuntu
[17:22] <iFire> if not just use ssh and its sftp
[17:23] <SparkyFlary> ok what if i had some very secret data? like government type of stuff?
[17:23] <iFire> ddAZZA do you want it to be mountable?
[17:23] <h00k> SparkyFlary: then you're going to want a stronger password.
[17:23] <iFire> i.e. a network drive
[17:23] <iFire> SparkyFlary as I said a crypto key and a passpharse
[17:23] <DDAZZA0> Yea that would be usful
[17:23] <jason201> has anyone here used MusicBrainz for metadata tagging?
[17:23] <iFire> SparkyFlary and if you want to get fancy, store the key on the smartcard
[17:24] <iFire> jason201 it mis-tags enough that I don't use it
[17:24] <xjkx> i installed ndiswrapper-common because there was no ~-utils, but when i run ndiswrapper it says i need util Error: ndiswrapper-utils-1.9 not installed!
[17:24] <jason201> any suggestions?
[17:24] <iFire> jason201 read above
[17:25] <xjkx> fixed, nevermind
[17:25] <jason201> thank you, what I meant was do you suggest anything else
[17:25] <SparkyFlary> iFire would it still be safe to run the website from home on a computer?
[17:25] <randomusr_> hello
[17:25] <iFire> SparkyFlary well technically your server in a farm is "safer"
[17:25] <iFire> physically
[17:25] <UnderSampled> !hi randomusr_
[17:26] <guntbert> SparkyFlary: please take that hypothetical discussion to #ubuntu-offtopic
[17:26] <iFire> but if it's close you can destroy the home server
[17:26] <UnderSampled> !hi | randomusr_
[17:26] <randomusr_> is there some gui for central management of system wide policies?
[17:26] <Ree_> hello
[17:27] <UnderSampled> !hi | Ree_
[17:27] <Ree_> any laptop with ATI GPUs users here?
[17:27] <UnderSampled> !ati | ree
[17:27] <UnderSampled> !ati | Ree_
[17:27] <SparkyFlary> Ree_ i think i have ATI
[17:27] <randomusr_> Ree, what are you trying to do or what would you like to know?
[17:28] <b_> need help with wine
[17:28] <rocket16> I have made a Tic Tac Toe game using Java, and have compiled it. Now, I want to make an Installer for Ubuntu, which will automatically add the entry of game to the Applications-Games menu. How may I do it?
[17:28] <UnderSampled> Ree_: you can also use #ati for help
[17:28] <randomusr_> wine = ick
[17:28] <hiexpo> !wine
[17:28] <dactyl> ok, 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.
[17:29] <Ree_> the thing is that after a clean 9.10 install I get black screen upon first boot
[17:29] <norbi905> Hello, 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] <Ree_> i see gru loading, the white ubuntu logo and then black screen
[17:29] <dactyl> haha, I fail at english
[17:29] <Ree_> *grub
[17:29] <b_> anybody know why wine is not working for starcraft??
[17:29] <xangua> dactyl: you can select language from the login screen
[17:30] <randomusr_> Ree_, how did you install/enable your ATI drivers?
[17:30] <Ree_> I did not
[17:30] <UnderSampled> b_: http://appdb.winehq.org
[17:30] <dactyl> xangua: and that will make all my menu hierarchy in english again?
[17:30] <xangua> yes
[17:30] <Ree_> i use the default driver Ubuntu picks for me
[17:30] <Shvonder> Waht 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] <dactyl> i'll give that a shot
[17:30] <Ree_> the problem happens on first boot AFTER a clean install
[17:31] <b_> UnderSampled, no i tried to uninstall starcraft n reinstall it .. now its not doing either
[17:31] <Ree_> if I forecefully reboot, it seems to boot fine
[17:32] <SuperMiguel> any electric engineer student using ubuntu?
[17:32] <h00k> !any | SuperMiguel
[17:32] <randomusr_> Ree_, maybe attempt the Alternative cd
[17:32] <arjun> what is wrong "##c++ :Cannot send to channel"
[17:32] <h00k> !ask | SuperMiguel
[17:32] <UnderSampled> b_: this channel is not for help with wine. You can always try #winehq
[17:32] <Ree_> that's exactly what I did -  I used the DVD to install in text mode
[17:32] <randomusr_> Ree_, also, you may want to scan your hdd for errors
[17:32] <Ree_> it's clean
[17:33] <guntbert> !who | Ree_
[17:33] <Ree_> scanned with seatools
[17:33] <arjun> what is wrong "##c++ :Cannot send to channel"
[17:33] <Ree_> ok, will do
[17:33] <randomusr_> Ree_, what's the model of your laptop?
[17:33] <Ree_> i'm no IRC user :)
[17:33] <arjun> what is wrong i cant post to the channel "##c++ :Cannot send to channel"
[17:33] <randomusr_> Ree_, can you paste the output of "lspci -l" on pastebin? and give me the link
[17:34] <SuperMiguel> h00k, are you one?
[17:34] <Ree_> randomusr_: Asus F5RL, ATI 1100 xpress
[17:34] <bullgard5> My 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] <h00k> SuperMiguel: just ask your question, perhaps someone else can help
[17:34] <randomusr_> Ree_, what's version of ubuntu did you install?
[17:34] <The_Serpent> how do i uninstall ubuntu and keep windows?
[17:34] <Ree_> randomusr_: 9.10
[17:34] <Ree_> randomusr_:  i386
[17:34] <ZykoticK9> bullgard5, "sudo service gdm restart" will restart Xorg for you
[17:35] <ZykoticK9> bullgard5, assuming karmic
[17:35] <randomusr_> Ree_, please "lspci -l" and pastebin that output
[17:35] <Ree_> randomusr_: will do a bit later, as i'm currently reinstalling 9.10 yet again
[17:35] <SuperMiguel> h00k, 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-installing
[17:35] <king11> how do you convert a bin file into a tar.gz file
[17:36] <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 time
[17:36] <randomusr_> Ree_, why ask for help when you trashed the image and started fresh? if it continues, let us know
[17:36] <Ree_> randomusr_: however that happened only once out of maybe 5 times
[17:36] <ZykoticK9> king11, if it's a single file you don't need tar - just gz the file
[17:36] <rm200910> king11: tar cfz <destination>.tar.gz <bin file>
[17:37] <king11> thanks, will try right now
[17:37] <bullgard5> ZykoticK9: 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 out
[17:37] <guntbert> SuperMiguel: how is this an ubuntu support question?
[17:37] <Ree_> randomusr_: didn't get you? i'm not hitting anything, just testing out
[17:38] <SuperMiguel> guntbert, ... forget it..
[17:38] <randomusr_> Ree_, but you have trouble booting no?
[17:38] <Ree_> randomusr_: yes, but only the first time after the install
[17:38] <Ree_> randomusr_: subsequent rboots seem to be fine
[17:38] <randomusr_> Ree_, and it works fine after that?
[17:38] <crazybyte> hello! 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!
[17:39] <randomusr_> Ree_, then what's the problem? it seems to be self correcting
[17:39] <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 happen
[17:39] <norbi905> I'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] <amos> i have a problem with blackra1n under virtualbox .. it detects the iphone but after the iphone reboots it's not recognized any more .. any ideas?
[17:40] <randomusr_> Ree_, sometimes in life we don't have all of the answers. if things work then don't attempt to fix
[17:41] <randomusr_> !mount
[17:41] <Ree_> randomusr_: i don't call leaving a user with a black screen on first boot as working
[17:41] <randomusr_> !mount | norbi905
[17:41] <LITESTER_> norbi905 check dmesg to see if there are messages about your usb when you plug it in
[17:41] <brontosaurusrex> how do i box-select in gedit?
[17:41] <hh> speak
[17:41] <variebuntux> aha??
[17:42] <randomusr_> Ree_, it is likely a configuration issue with grub or x.org - when booting the 2nd time it may correct itself
[17:43] <tensor-01> :-)
[17:43] <Soloppgang> chat norge
[17:43] <Soloppgang> hei
[17:43] <randomusr_> Ree_, without seeing your system logs and x.org, /boot/grub/grub.cfg there's not much anyone can do to help
[17:43] <king11> rm200910: it is not working
[17:43] <Soloppgang> hei
[17:43] <randomusr_> Ree_, in other words, more detail is needed before someone can assist you
[17:44] <randomusr_> is there some gui for central management of system wide policies?
[17:44] <king11> rm200910: I tried to type exactly what you told me but I keep getting syntax error
[17:44] <norbi905> LITESTER_, dmesg shows FAT:invalid media value(0x00) VFS: Can't find a valid FAT filesystem on dev sdb.
[17:44] <norbi905> LITESTER_, 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 problem
[17:44] <iFire> GNU\colossus there's no problem with add "me" to the group www-data right?
[17:44] <bullgard5> My 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?
[17:45] <iFire> my server is nginx and it uses that user
[17:45] <Soloppgang> hei
[17:45] <randomusr_> Ree_, as I have said, we need more detail. you could also google "black screen" ubuntu. this is usually an x.org problem
[17:45] <ikonia> bullgard5: why do you keepsaying 3 randomly in your typing ?
[17:45] <Shvonder> Is any way to turn a octave which was built from sources in a virtual application? I want using the octave on my netbook
[17:45] <ikonia> bullgard5: if killing X does not work, it normally suggests the tty it's running has hung, so a restart would be the best thing
[17:46] <pinoyoragon> Hi. 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] <theadmin> ikonia: Maybe he's running X on third virtual terminal
[17:46] <king11> how do you convert emerald file into a tar.gz file
[17:46] <randomusr_> Ree_,  or a mis-configured kernel or video driver
[17:46] <marek__> siema
[17:46] <bullgard5> ikonia: hm.
[17:46] <theadmin> king11: Emerald themes are old stuff, you don't want em :/
[17:47] <andrew_l> hey 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_l> theres a dvd in it, and the light in the side goes on and off, but i can't mount it
[17:47] <theadmin> andrew_l: even manually?
[17:48] <randomusr_> Ree_, something is not getting set correctly when you install. I can't be any more clear than that
[17:48] <andrew_l> correst theadmin
[17:48] <theadmin> hm, weird...
[17:48] <king11> theadmin: yeah but that was what was offered on the genome site with the theme
[17:48] <king11> does anyone know of a site where I can get compiz only themes
[17:48] <GNU\colossus> iFire: 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 bug
[17:48] <randomusr_> Ree_, please inform the channel when you're facing the problem again and want to troubleshoot that specific problem
[17:48] <iFire> GNU\colossus well I sued into www-data and it let me read the data
[17:49] <randomusr_> Ree_, it's not a bug, seems to be user error
[17:49] <andrew_l> it shows up under 'computer' but when i click on it it says cd/..../ or whatever doesnt exist
[17:49] <Ree_> randomusr_: will provide more detail when the install completes
[17:49] <Ree_> randomusr_: user error? are you kiddibng?
[17:49] <andrew_l> unable to mount cd0, mount: special device /dev/scd0 does not exist
[17:49] <Shvonder> Does someone know if any way be to make one application on ubuntu-desktop be virtual application? Or this is impossible?
[17:49] <Ree_> randomusr_: i simply installed Ubuntu, didn't touch anything
[17:50] <Ree_> randomusr_: how is it use4r error?
[17:50] <grobda24> king11, http://gnome-look.org/
[17:50] <theadmin> Shvonder: "virtual application"?
[17:50] <king11> grobda24: yeah that is where I was and they had emerald themes up but I can't install an emerald theme b/c I think it is old
[17:51] <randomusr_> Is anyone aware of a gui tool for managing system policies? Does webmin have enough modules to cover most things?
[17:51] <DonSlice> Hey. I just logged into my 9.10 server and it's saying it's 10.04. I didn't do a dist-upgrade, just normal upgrade.
[17:51] <DonSlice> ...and i just realized I have lucid repos listed.
[17:51] <DonSlice> ffuuuu
[17:52] <ZykoticK9> !webmin > randomusr_
[17:52] <king11> grobda24: I even clicked on compiz theme link and what was offered was emerald themes
[17:52] <ZykoticK9> !emerald > king11
[17:52] <ChogyDan> DonSlice: did you ever add a -d to the upgrade command?
[17:52] <DonSlice> ChogyDan: Nope.
[17:52] <ikonia> he has lucid repo's listed, that's the problem
[17:52] <DonSlice> ChogyDan: But i did add lucid repos so I could get the newest version of weechat-curses.
[17:52] <Shvonder> theadmin: I want to use it (application) on my netbook, but I don't want unstall it. virtual application I mean that it can be use like through terminal or like in Ulteo (with webbrowser)
[17:52] <DonSlice> Last time I did an upgrade, it must have upgraded.
[17:52] <DonSlice> http://pastie.org/912968

[17:52] <DonSlice> My login is messed up, too.
[17:53] <ikonia> DonSlice: don't need to see it, we know th eproblem
[17:53] <randomusr_> ZykoticK9, is there something similar that will allow easy gui front to setting user and machine policies?
[17:53] <DonSlice> ikonia: Could you at least advise me on how to clean that up?
[17:53] <ikonia> DonSlice: clean install
[17:53] <DonSlice> fuu
[17:53] <ZykoticK9> randomusr_, no idea (but webmin isn't a good idea)
[17:53] <ikonia> DonSlice: mixing repos is bad, and upgrading by changing the repo's in the sources.list is bad
[17:53] <theadmin> Shvonder: I think this isn't possible with most packages, unfortunately
[17:53] <ojii> I 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] <king11> ZykoticK9: I know emerald is old but that is what the genome look site is offering as compiz themes, I don't get it
[17:54] <DonSlice> ikonia: Yeah, I forgot I had lucid in there when upgrading.
[17:54] <randomusr_> ZykoticK9, webmin used to the greatest.... oh well
[17:54] <ikonia> ojii: how do you know it's not running
[17:54] <ikonia> DonSlice: mixing repo's is bad in the first place
[17:54] <DonSlice> ikonia: I only did it for weechat-curses./
[17:54]  * DonSlice shrugs.
[17:54] <randomusr_> ZykoticK9, have you had experience with centeris likewise?
[17:54] <ojii> ikonia: ps aux | grep ^postgres is empty, and i can't connect to the server either
[17:54] <ikonia> DonSlice: still bad
[17:54] <DonSlice> yet soo goooood
[17:55] <ikonia> ojii: walk through the init script manually, launch it manually to see if it can run or if there is a problem
[17:55] <ChogyDan> DonSlice: next time, you should just download the deb from the lucid repos, instead of adding the whole repo to apt
[17:55] <edvinas> Hi, 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] <grobda24> king11, I see compiz themes but Emerald is often used with Compiz
[17:55] <DonSlice> ChogyDan: I did, but it needed a lot of prereqs
[17:56] <DonSlice> Well, thanks for the help guys. Time to re-install. :/
[17:56] <Shvonder> theadmin: I've seen on a web site that octave works in such way
[17:57] <king11> grobda24: 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 ones
[17:57] <randomusr_> <----- doesn't understand why some folks choose to do things the hard way
[17:58] <ojii> ikonia: the point is that when I run the init.d script it doesn't give me any output (no errors either)
[17:58] <ikonia> ojii: I understand that, so I said manually walk through the init script, or manually start postgres to see if it gives you an error
[17:58] <ojii> ikonia: what do you mean by manually walk through it?
[17:59] <ojii> and how would I manually start it?
[17:59] <ikonia> ojii: step by step use the start up process of the init script
[17:59] <ikonia> ojii: there is documentation on the postgress web page about manually launching postgres also
[17:59] <fliff> Can anyone help me achieve this? Looking to have an Ubuntu box set up where I can then have multiple users remote in to their own GNOME session without anything being displayed on the main machine. Is there a simple solution for this?
[18:00] <king11> does anyone know how to change the login screen theme on 9.10
[18:01] <ikonia> king11: gdm themes are not supported in 9.10
[18:01] <ChogyDan> fliff: like thing clients?
[18:01] <ChogyDan> *thin clients
[18:01] <king11> ikonia: is there anyway I could get around that problem of not being supported or is it a no

[18:08] <youssef> Hello. I have installed Ubuntu with wubi and when trying to boot on Ubuntu I get a "grub>" prompt. Some commands are available such as badram, boot, cpuid, etc. But no kernel seems to be available. Installing and reinstalling wubi today several times did not help, neither a Windows defragmantation and memory test. Can somone help me?
[18:08] <halim> is there a way of getting the samba configuration files back (the standard configuration), reinstalling doesn't help, please help me
[18:08] <steffan> ikonia: I see, nagios and weechat seem to be discussed a lot in here lately, so it seemed logical to submit them - thanks for the info.
[18:09] <ntsasng> ikonia: that is difficult to install and config it
[18:09] <ntsasng> :(
[18:09] <steffan> halim: if you are using 'remove', configuration files are not erased. 'purge' does that
[18:09] <ikonia> ntsasng: it's not, but if you find that too hard don't use it
[18:10] <bashi> Hello, I'm having problems with my Ubuntu 9.10 installation. Every time I try to install a package I get the message "Where is the linux source build directory that matches your running kernel?", and then an error after striking the "Enter" key
[18:10] <halim> steffan: i did purge too, but it didn't remove the config files in /etc/samba, so i deleted them on my own
[18:10] <ntsasng> ikonia: i speak English not verry well
[18:10] <ntsasng> :(
[18:10] <ikonia> bashi: how are you trying to install a package
[18:10] <bashi> ikonia: apt-get install
[18:11] <ikonia> bashi: what package are you trying to install ?
[18:11] <Kuifje111> try apt-get update
[18:11] <ntsasng> ikonia: install LAMPP on Debian same Ubuntu?
[18:11] <ikonia> Kuifje111: that won't install anything
[18:11] <ntsasng> ikonia: i'm using Debian lenny
[18:11] <bashi> ikonia: any package, I get this problem with them all
[18:11] <Kuifje111> it might solve your problem though.
[18:11] <ikonia> ntsasng: I don't know what you're asking

[18:12] <youssef> Is the latest wubi version buggy?
[18:12] <AmberJ> youssef, Define buggy.
[18:12] <mneptok> youssef: and define "latest." are you asking about Lucid?
[18:13] <youssef> AmberJ: for example a distribution installer that does not include a kernel !
[18:13] <AmberJ> for example.... Are we discussing test cases here?
[18:13] <youssef> mneptok:  latest is the latest available version available today (rev160)
[18:13] <steffan> halim: removing /etc/samba/smb.conf will remove the configuration file. if you're then looking for the original configuration file, there seems to be a copy at http://slackware.osuosl.org/slackware_source/n/samba/smb.conf.default

[18:16] <Turbolinux> Hello everyone. How can I set up PhotoRec software for transferring rescued files to my portable hard disk? Thank you.
[18:17] <youssef> AmberJ: it is an installer that creates automatically a dual boot. It seems that they forgot to ship the kernel
[18:17] <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] <oCean_> What am i missing here..?
[18:18] <guntbert> oCean_: vbox OSE doesn't support USB -- further support in #vbox
[18:18] <Turbolinux> Can you help me for my problem? Thank you.
[18:19] <geekphreak> hi all
[18:19] <youssef> I am filling a bug report
[18:20] <fliff>  ChogyDan - Yes, exactly like a thin client
[18:20] <fliff> Sorry all - been afk for a bit - Can anyone help me achieve this? Looking to have a Ubuntu box set up where I can then have multiple users remote in to their own GNOME session without anything being displayed on the server. Is there a simple solution for this?
[18:21] <Koterpillar> fliff, XDMCP
[18:21] <AmberJ> youssef, Isn't wubi just a installer that looks for other stuff on ubuntu CD? correct me if I'm wrong
[18:21] <fliff> XDMCP? Thanks, I'll Google it
[18:21] <ChogyDan> fliff: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuLTSP  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ThinClientHowto
[18:22] <fliff> Thanks guys
[18:22] <youssef> AmberJ: no wubi is an installer on Windows, that download and install Ubuntu in a windows directory and creats a dual boot. My bug seems to be very old. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/477104

[18:23] <brian> My printer is working in Ubuntu and I want to share it with my Windows 7 computer. I set up smb.conf just like it said on their site and my windows 7 computer can see the printer but it says "cannot connect to printer". Any ideas why?
[18:24] <Turbolinux> I need a solution urgently. Do you have an idea for solving this problem?
[18:24] <AmberJ> youssef, Ah. I misunderstood you :(
[18:24] <Koterpillar> brian, suggest you share it using IPP, enter http://ubuntuhost:631/name_of_the_printer as printer address on Windows
[18:25] <Koterpillar> although that's not a solution to your original problem...
[18:25] <brian> kotepillar: if it gets my windows computer to print to it, it's a perfect solutions
[18:25] <brian> thanks, I'll try it out
[18:26] <king11> how do you get a 360 skydome picture to come up on a laptop with 1024 x 768
[18:26] <Koterpillar> brian, check in printing options that your printer is shared
[18:27] <geekphreak> brian by any chane yo disabled any services on windows?
[18:27] <shafiq> Does anyone know of a Windows client program that will allow me to access the Remote Desktop on my Ubuntu machine?
[18:27] <king11> basically, I want the skydome to not have a seam but for some reason it keeps having a line in it
[18:27] <brian> geekphreak: well, I am in windows 7 god mode
[18:27] <brian> i don't know if that disables any services or not
[18:27] <DarkSector> !hi
[18:28] <youssef> amberJ the proposed solution seems very complicated for a newbie. I mean I would not have guessed these commands
[18:28] <DarkSector> ok just testing if it's alive
[18:28] <geekphreak> brian yeah thats ok but make sure yo have not disabled print spooler service
[18:28] <DarkSector> !paste
[18:29] <brian> geekphreak: Oh ok. It's not disabled because I can hook my windows computer directly to the printer via USB and print
[18:29] <geekphreak> ok good

[18:47] <fax> hi

[18:47] <Arch_NME> good morning
[18:47] <licquor> ok   i  did  @sia
[18:47] <fax> I tried ubuntu a couple of times but I kept finding that after a few weeks it would stop booting correctly, e.g. it would just give a glitchy screen on startup and not do anything --- why ?
[18:48] <sjd> hi, I have a quick question. I'm currently using 9.10 and have build the OpenCV library for Python, will it stop working if I upgrade to Lucid?
[18:48] <rethus> have xubuntu 9.10.. .where can i change the masterpassword of my keyring?
[18:48] <Sia--> licquor, and what 32 or 64?
[18:48] <Dmole> shafiq: other good tools are sshfs winscp x forwarding ssh-cli .... the free(open) one is different you can try them both ans see what you like... the setup can be a pain
[18:49] <licquor> this  is what  i  see  esktop 2.6.31-20-generic #58-Ubuntu SMP Fri Mar 12 05:23:09 UTC 2010 i686 GNU/Linux
[18:49] <sjd> will upgrading to lucid break my current setup of OpenCV with Python?
[18:49] <Sia--> licquor, 32bit
[18:49] <licquor> ok  ty
[18:49] <licquor> now what
[18:49] <Dmole> shafiq: both are free one is open source
[18:50] <Sia--> and what is you java version?
[18:50] <sjd> any comments please..
[18:50] <Sia--> sjd, hmm
[18:50] <Sia--> !lucid | sjd
[18:51] <licquor> ok  where  is that  but  i  think   i have  java 6 maybe
[18:51] <sjd> Sia--: what do you think. will it break?
[18:51] <fax> can I ask a general question: What is the absolutely best kind fo linux to put on a mac pro? I mean one that is least likely to break and most robust of all?
[18:51] <Sia--> !lucid | sjd
[18:51] <sjd> Sia--:  ?
[18:51] <Sia--> fax, ubuntu :)
[18:52] <guntbert> sjd: not here please -- ask in #ubuntu+1
[18:52] <sambo__> can I ask a related question to that, are the 32 and 64bit builds bootable on octo core mac pro?
[18:52] <sjd> guntbert: okay. thanks for redirecting.
[18:52] <Sia--> licquor, and what is your problem licquor in which program or page with java?
[18:53] <Sia--> guntbert, i told him 2 times :D
[18:53] <Sia--> !ask | sambo__
[18:53] <licquor> version 6 update 15
[18:54] <guntbert> Sia--: I saw -- but sometimes a personal sentence is more powerful :-)
[18:54] <Sia--> guntbert, yep :)
[18:54] <sjd> guntbert: you are right! Sorry Sia-- :)
[18:54] <wolter> how can I kill and stop nautilus from restarting?
[18:54] <Arch_NME> is there a term command to detect usb drives? so I can see like what it is to mount it?
[18:54] <Sia--> sjd, np you are welcome
[18:55] <ChogyDan> wolter: nautilus handles your desktop, AFAIK
[18:55] <Sia--> Arch_NME, fdisk -l

[18:55] <sambo__> I have an octo core mac pro and have seen confusing and conflicting information regarding running linux (temporarily) on it, I would like to profile some fluid solving code on 32 and 64bit linux can you help me clarify the situation with some advice please
[18:55] <licquor> trying to  play games on facebook but  all the parts not available
[18:56] <Sia--> sambo__, for mac or power pc is special version called ubuntu power pc or debian ..etc
[18:56] <licquor> i  use firefox
[18:56] <Arch_NME> Sia: That command just got me to a ">"
[18:56] <rethus> have xubuntu 9.10.. .where can i change the masterpassword of my keyring?
[18:56] <Sia--> Arch_NME, use sudo fdisk -l
[18:57] <sambo__> Sia--:  do you know more about the installation process with regards to EFI and having to install windows first etc (googling your suggestions now)
[18:57] <wolter> ChogyDan, yes but I want to kill it and run it from a terminal to debug
[18:57] <Arch_NME> Sia: it still prompts me with a >
[18:57] <bribroder> licquor, have you got ubuntu restricted extras installed?
[18:57] <ChogyDan> licquor: try this, for sanity sake: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras sun-java6-plugin && sudo update-java-alternatives -s java-6-sun && sudo apt-get remove mozilla-plugin-gnash swfdec-mozilla
[18:57] <Arch_NME> Sia: then what I type it says unable to open
[18:58] <Sia--> licquor, i think ubuntu using icedtea plugin no more java plugin or no more in lucid or the next ubuntu versions, if something does't work, then is not directly ubuntu fault
[18:58] <bribroder> chogydan, same thought :)
[18:58] <wolter> !tab | bribroder
[18:59] <Arch_NME> OH I SEE!!!!!!!! that an L not a pipe |
[19:00] <Arch_NME> that fdisk command is only showing the three drive I have currently mounted though
[19:01] <bribroder> thanks wolter
[19:01] <Sia--> Arch_NME, ok
[19:01] <histo> Arch_NME: it should show all drives detected by the system
[19:01] <Arch_NME> I'm trying to find out info about a usb drive that did not get mounted so I can mount it
[19:01] <Sia--> then mount the usbs
[19:01] <ChogyDan> wolter: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/204413
[19:01] <Arch_NME> I don't know where they are to mount them
[19:01] <histo> Arch_NME: lsusb should show the usb drive inserted
[19:01] <sambo__> Sia--:  http://wiki.debian.org/DebianOnIntelMacPro <-- closest thing to a lucid answer I have found, I'm really hoping there is an easier way
[19:01] <histo> Arch_NME: gnome mounts them in ~/.gvfs
[19:02] <fax> sambo__ me too
[19:02] <histo> Arch_NME: mount  in a terminal by itself will show you all the mounts currently in place
[19:02] <sambo__> fax: did you run through that gauntlet and try to get it working?
[19:02] <Arch_NME> they are not currently mounted
[19:02] <dakota> hello
[19:02] <dakota> anyone can help me...?
[19:02] <fax> sambo__ no I installed ubuntu a couple times though
[19:02] <sambo__> fax: with success?

[19:05] <sambo__> are you like seven years old?
[19:05] <dakota> I can't install the binarie package because it try search libstdc++5
[19:05] <Arch_NME> well, I just moved it to a different usb port and it magically detected the drives now
[19:05] <dakota> and libstdc++5 is not avaible so
[19:05] <Arch_NME> odd, it works on that other usb port in windows
[19:05] <dakota> no, I'm spanish!
[19:05] <dakota> and my english is not very good
[19:05] <dakota> sorry
[19:05] <dakota> champion
[19:05] <Arch_NME> maybe it was just the act of disconnecting and reconnecting it though
[19:05] <sambo__> dakota: not written to you
[19:06] <dakota> you don't know speak spanish,no?
[19:06] <Dmole> dakota: did you try installing  libstdc++5?
[19:06] <Sia--> sambo__, and nott me
[19:06] <dakota> ok
[19:06] <histo> Arch_NME: could be that reinsertion worked
[19:06] <dakota> sorry again
[19:06] <Arch_NME> well thanks anyway, those were some good commands to know

[19:09] <gh0ghnus> vlc is the best
[19:09] <licquor> gnome mplayer  sorry
[19:09] <Arch_NME> oh
[19:09] <Sia--> heartlesshero, totem
[19:09] <Arch_NME> meh, it's alright it's fixed now anyway

[19:20] <azi__> bribroder: i should try to prevent X from even starting
[19:21] <bribroder> azi__, i'm definitely not an expert; have you tried using the recovery mode offered in grub?
[19:21] <Dmole> azi__: try editing the run levle
[19:21] <azi__> bribroder: grub is not prompting at boot time. ubuntu is booted automaticall
[19:21] <azi__> automatically
[19:22] <Arch_NME> or can someone help me with understanding these instruction to compile a program I downloaded?
[19:22] <azi__> Dmole: is there any way I could switch back to the previous driver by changeing some settings through the livecd?
[19:22]  * ringer current user is 
[19:22] <gh0ghnus> azi__, just remove installed packages using synaptic
[19:22]  * ringer current user is 
[19:22] <bribroder> Arch_NME, what program?
[19:22]  * ringer current user is 
[19:23] <Arch_NME> briborder: nvclock
[19:23]  * ringer current user is 
[19:23] <ZykoticK9> ringer, please stop
[19:23] <azi__> gh0ghnus: how do I use synaptic within the liveCD to remove applications on the primary system?
[19:23]  * ringer current user is 
[19:23] <Arch_NME> briborder: I have a readme with instructions though, it's just not going exactly right
[19:23]  * ringer current user is 
[19:23] <Arch_NME> briborder: need some assistance interpretting
[19:23] <Dmole> azi__: should be able to
[19:24] <Dmole> azi__: you could probably copy the x config from the live CD to your busted box
[19:25] <gh0ghnus> azi__, i'm sorry i made a mistake,
[19:25] <Dmole> azi__: make a backup of any file you change so you can revert
[19:25] <ikonia> kcinloc: you're cloaked
[19:25] <lws> :(
[19:25] <azi__> Dmole: the liveCD system has no xorg.conf? :)
[19:26] <bribroder> Arch_NME, what step are you on in the readme?
[19:26] <Arch_NME> briborder: I tried to send you the readme but it was flodding do I think it didn't through
[19:26] <Scarra3> Hey
[19:26] <histo> !paste | Arch_NME
[19:26] <Dmole> azi__: I would think it would make one on the RAM disk it uses, but I don't know for sure
[19:27] <bribroder> Arch_NME, i downloaded the package and i'm looking at the readme
[19:27] <Scarra3> I really like Ubuntu 10.04 LTS Beta 2 its really stable
[19:27] <lws> Why does every version have a .04 on it as of late?
[19:27] <maco> Scarra3: yay :) but lucid chatter is in #ubuntu+1
[19:28] <Arch_NME> briborder: http://paste.ubuntu.com/412227/
[19:28] <shashike> hello  all!
[19:28] <Losha> Scarra3: it's also really off-topic here, go to #ubuntu+1
[19:28] <azi__> Dmole: also i've looked in the xorg.conf of the busted system and there is no evident setting for the proprietary driver
[19:28] <maco> lws: .04 = released in april. .10 = released in october
[19:28] <shashike> i 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] <maco> lws: there have been: 4.10, 5.04, 5.10, 6.06, 6.10, 7.04, 7.10, 8.04, 8.10, 9.04, 9.10 and will be 10.04
[19:29] <Arch_NME> why 6.06 and not 6.04?
[19:29] <lws> How do I force an install if the pre-install-script fails?
[19:29] <EdgEy__> late release i'd assume
[19:29] <maco> Arch_NME: delayed
[19:29] <ZykoticK9> lws, FYI the number before the . is the year it was released in
[19:29] <lws> I need to get /etc/init.d/networking back.   My install is FAILING because it's missing.  Bleh
[19:29] <maco> ZykoticK9: well, the year, minus 2000
[19:30] <Arch_NME> those instructions make any sense to you ? http://paste.ubuntu.com/412227/
[19:30] <ZykoticK9> maco, minus 2000?  don't you mean plus 2000?  ;)
[19:30] <shashike> my internal mic doesnt work, can someone pleasee help me? its very very urgent
[19:30] <maco> ZykoticK9: the year minus 2000 = the bit before teh .
[19:30] <bribroder> Arch_NME, have you run any commands yet?
[19:30] <lws> This is he-larious...
[19:31] <Arch_NME> well, I ran the first two
[19:31] <deadlyblue> shashike 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_NME> the second seemed to generate some new files
[19:31] <lws> pre-install scripts make a lot of asumptions about the state of the system "should be in"....
[19:31] <deadlyblue> alsamixer
[19:31] <gh0ghnus> azi__, i think working on grub is better than working on X config files first change grub config to access recovery mode
[19:31] <maco> lws: im surprised you could use apt while not having a networking script...
[19:31] <Arch_NME> when I go to run make install though it says "make: *** No rule to make target `install'.  Stop."
[19:31] <maco> lws: you're using karmic?
[19:32] <bribroder> !tab Arch_NME
[19:32] <shashike> i have read a lot, about alsamixer and stuff, but nothing seems to help
[19:32] <lws> maco: 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] <lws> maco:  Stupid me for assuming it would just install some files...
[19:32] <maco> lws: ah. alright. lemme grab the package and find the file to pastebin for you
[19:32] <azi`> gh0ghnus: just trying to figurer out how to add this option in the config.. so that grups prompts me before boot
[19:32] <azi`> gh0ghnus: any clue?
[19:32] <Arch_NME> bash: !tab: event not found
[19:33] <Losha> Arch_NME: did you run autogen.sh and the ./configure before make?
[19:33] <lws> maco: 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....
[19:34] <ZykoticK9> Arch_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 think
[19:34] <Arch_NME> Losha: I think so let me try again
[19:34] <gh0ghnus> azi__, grub automatically shows this option, i think you must change wait time for grub
[19:34] <bribroder> Arch_NME, i think you may have missed ./configure
[19:34] <Arch_NME> oh
[19:34] <Arch_NME> let me go through the steps again just to make sure
[19:34] <Losha> Arch_NME: not only do they have to run, they have to run *without errors*....
[19:35] <shashike> guys , can someone PLEASE help me with my mic problem?
[19:36] <tw|master^brb> My computer crashed after installing the driver update for my videocard :(
[19:36] <tw|master^brb> any idea why?
[19:36] <Arch_NME> how do I run them from a terminal I just ran them from the gui before and I want to run them from terminal beacuse maybe I missed the error output
[19:36] <Micc__> I'm upgrading from 9.10 to ubuntu 10.04 beta 2, but its locked up with 25 minutes remaining.
[19:36] <maco> lws: http://pastebin.com/cvhqe8Xe
[19:36] <Arch_NME> just typing autogen.sh from the directory doesn't seem to work
[19:37] <Losha> Arch_NME: what happens?
[19:38] <lws> maco: thanks much!
[19:38] <Arch_NME> this happens http://paste.ubuntu.com/412232/
[19:38] <lws> brb
[19:38] <tw|master^brb> My computer crashed after installing the driver update for my videocard :( Any idea why that could be?
[19:38] <bribroder> make sure to use ./autogen.sh
[19:38] <jeipur> i can't make a program read a .log and it has already done.... it's getting like permission denied, can someone help me on this one?
[19:38] <Micc__> Its locked up on Installing Upgrades, below the bar says preparing memtest86+, and in the Terminal its filled with Found linux image: /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.32-19-generic
[19:39] <Losha> Arch_NME: read the last 4 lines. You need to install autogen before you can run it :-)
[19:39] <Micc__> And it keeps saying that found linux image message over and over.
[19:39] <Arch_NME> briborder I did that second command: see my log http://paste.ubuntu.com/412232/
[19:39] <Cool_Nick> My username can't mount a hd.  so I sudo mount it and then my user cant create folders on it.....
[19:39] <Arch_NME> what is and sh file isn't that supposed to be executable?
[19:40] <V3RR3Z> I just installed AnarchyOnline but it didnt take it out of the program list... What can i do?
[19:40] <Losha> Arch_NME: yes, but the script relies on other programs which aren't installed yet, so it fails...
[19:41] <bribroder> Arch_NME, you might need some extra tools
[19:41] <Arch_NME> the instructions jsut say to run that first though http://paste.ubuntu.com/412233/
[19:41] <Arch_NME> tools such as?
[19:41] <bribroder> they might be counting on you having build tools already installed
[19:42] <Arch_NME> what are build tools?
[19:42] <Losha> Arch_NME: just do what it says: sudo apt-get install autogen
[19:42] <bribroder> Losha, are you looking at line 15? that's just a mis-entered command
[19:42] <Arch_NME> Losha this isn't from the package manager though
[19:42] <ZykoticK9> shashike, 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 s
[19:42] <ZykoticK9> uggest much more i'm afraid)
[19:43] <Losha> Arch_NME: they are support tools that developers use when building stuff. Believe it or not, they actually make development easier
[19:43] <bribroder> Arch_NME, try "sudo apt-get install autoconf makedev"
[19:43] <Arch_NME> where can I obtain these tools, is there a common standard set?
[19:43] <Losha> bribroder: oh, right. But lines 11, 12 and 13 aren't. Those are missing executables...
[19:44] <tw|master^brb> My computer crashed after installing the driver update for my videocard :( Any idea why that could be?
[19:44] <bribroder> azi`, did you have any luck?
[19:44] <bribroder> Losha, right-o. i'm not sure what autoheader and aclocal are...
[19:44] <Arch_NME> oaky I ran that command succesfully briborder, tools installed
[19:45] <DPic> is there a way to run the alternate installer from the desktop liveCD?
[19:45] <ZykoticK9> DPic, if you want a text install - you'll need to use the alternate CD i'm affraid
[19:45] <kai_> hello everybody
[19:45] <bribroder> Arch_NME, try ./autogen.sh again and see how many errors you get
[19:45] <DPic> ZykoticK9: ah, why's that?
[19:45] <Arch_NME> it did nothing
[19:45] <stopsign> i 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_NME> just brought me back to another command prompt
[19:45] <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 openGL
[19:45] <Arch_NME> which I think is good
[19:45] <ZykoticK9> DPic, because the LiveCD doesn't have the text installer
[19:46] <DPic> ZykoticK9: is it an installable package?
[19:46] <Flannel> DPic: The installers are completely different
[19:46] <Losha> bribroder: 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 moment
[19:46] <DPic> hm, i see
[19:46] <Losha> Arch_NME: yes, try ./configure next...
[19:46] <under0> hi
[19:47] <under0> Why ubuntu 10.04 uses 500mb of memory? i've just installed..
[19:47] <ZykoticK9> under0, #ubuntu+1 is the lucid channel
[19:47] <Arch_NME> what does it mean run the configure script? http://paste.ubuntu.com/412233/
[19:47] <bribroder> Arch_NME, it means type ./configure
[19:47] <salvo> ciao
[19:47] <salvo> !list
[19:47] <Losha> Arch_NME: it means, type this: ./configure    <--- note leading period.
[19:48] <Cool_Nick> Whats the best way to mount a new hard drive?
[19:48] <enthdegree> GREPLIBS GREPLIBS GREPLIBS GREPLIBS GREPLIBS!
[19:48] <Pirate_Hunter> I am trying to watch an flv file on my desktop, however, the image sometimes goes blank and all I can do is listen to it unless I stop it and restart again, this will also happen if another application pops up, how do I fix this?
[19:48] <azi`> so the question is. how can i switch back to the non-proprietary drivers?
[19:48] <Arch_NME> okay that configure script seemed to go with error
[19:48] <Losha> Arch_NME: please pastebin the output...
[19:48] <bribroder> azi`,  did you apt-get remove --purge xorg-driver-fglrx ?
[19:49] <enthdegree> Cool_Nick: I use mount
[19:49] <ZykoticK9> azi`, if you move your xorg.conf to xorg.conf.backup (or similar) X will fallback to using the opensource driver
[19:49] <Cool_Nick> I would like to use a gui wher eit will automatically put it into fstab etc...
[19:49] <bribroder> azi`, you may find it helpful to reconfig the server
[19:49] <Arch_NME> this was the output, still same issue with make install http://paste.ubuntu.com/412235/
[19:50] <azi`> bribroder: reconfig manually or is there any command for that? xorgcfg doesn't seem to be shipped with ubuntu
[19:50] <enthdegree> Why not just put it into fstab yourself?
[19:50] <bribroder> azi`, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[19:50] <azi`> bribroder: thanks
[19:51] <azi`> bribroder: the xorg configs remains the same as after my last edit, after I issue this command
[19:51] <Cool_Nick> trying to keep it simple right now
[19:51] <azi`> bribroder: and the problem is that with this config i am not able to use opengl
[19:51] <Cool_Nick> Im also trying to get used to the gui
[19:52] <enthdegree> Cool_Nick: There's a gui now?
[19:52] <V3RR3Z> WHAT THE FUCK!
[19:52] <ZykoticK9> !language | V3RR3Z
[19:52] <enthdegree> !language
[19:52] <tw|master^brb> My computer crashed after installing the driver update for my videocard :( Any idea why that could be?
[19:52] <enthdegree> I win. (:<
[19:52] <Losha> Arch_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] <bribroder> azi`, just making sure there's no bits left over... did you say you --purged the driver?
[19:52] <azi`> bribroder: yes
[19:52] <azi`> bribroder: copy pasted what u said actually
[19:52] <V3RR3Z> Why would a program still show inthe Menu thats not supposed to be installed.
[19:53] <bribroder> Arch_NME, looks like progress... you got an error when you ran ./configure though
[19:53] <calum>  
[19:53] <Losha> enthdegree: what was all that greplibs stuff earlier?
[19:53] <Arch_NME> yeah I see the error
[19:53] <Arch_NME> xll development libraries eh...
[19:53] <ZykoticK9> Arch_NME, you do have Xorg installed correct?  just going from the error message.
[19:54] <enthdegree> Losha: All five.
[19:54] <Arch_NME> I don't even know what is xorg?
[19:54] <mertle> V3RR3Z: you didn't choose to completely remove it - config files and all
[19:54] <Arch_NME> if it came with standard ubuntu I have it if not I don't
[19:54] <ZykoticK9> Arch_NME, sorry - I'm sure you do then (xorg is the GUI)
[19:54] <Arch_NME> I have the gnome gui
[19:55] <Losha> Arch_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-e> hi
[19:55] <ZykoticK9> Arch_NME, Losha have you tried the nvclock in the default repository?  sudo apt-get install nvclock?
[19:55] <Arch_NME> Losha, to get like two more frame s sec while playing video games, ;)
[19:56] <Arch_NME> no it's not in repository
[19:56] <azi`> bribroder: removing xorg.conf and restarting X helped. now i just need to find if there is any related bug to mine
[19:56] <Arch_NME> also, plus doing stuff like this is educational and I like learnign stuff
[19:56] <guntbert> !hi e-i-k-e
[19:56] <guntbert> !hi | e-i-k-e
[19:57] <mertle> !info nvclock > Arch_NME
[19:57] <bribroder> azi`, is wine involved at all?
[19:57] <ZykoticK9> Arch_NME, what version of Ubuntu are you using?
[19:58] <Losha> Arch_NME: well, you're going to need either gtk or qt development libraries. I would try gtk first. e.g. sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-dev
[19:58] <bribroder> Arch_NME, nvclock shows up in the repos for me, in fact
[19:58] <Arch_NME> mertle what does that emssage mean you sent me?
[19:58] <Arch_NME> I have 9.10 installed
[19:58] <ZykoticK9> Arch_NME, then nvclock should be in the repo
[19:58] <Arch_NME> it is in the repos!!! well doesn't that make me just look retarded then
[19:59] <mertle> Arch_NME: the bot should have sent you a message saying that nvclock is in the universe repo
[19:59] <Arch_NME> I swear I searched for it
[19:59] <azi`> bribroder: no, why?
[19:59] <azi`> bribroder: where did wine came from?
[20:00] <Arch_NME> yes I found it O_o
[20:00] <mertle> heh
[20:00] <Losha> Arch_NME: our fault as much as yours. We should have checked also...
[20:01] <Arch_NME> no it's fine I said that I looked
[20:01] <bribroder> Arch_NME, face-palm on my part
[20:01] <enthdegree> matt makes games./wc
[20:01] <bribroder> azi`, just curious if you were trying to run an app with wine, infamously fragile
[20:01] <enthdegree> Aww, rats.
[20:02] <Losha> Arch_NME: if you do this for any length of time, you realise that everyone makes mistakes, all the time...
[20:02] <Arch_NME> oh yes I know, I work at a helpdesk actually
[20:03] <mattdawson> does anyone know how scripts in /etc/init.d end up symlinked in /etc/rcX.d directories?
[20:03] <mertle> Arch_NME: I find   apt-cache search "app"   a much better to find things
[20:03] <Losha> Arch_NME: then it's just Karma, working through Karmic...
[20:03] <Arch_NME> besides it's as much about learnign my way around linux at this point as overclocking my card
[20:03] <mattdawson> i have an iptables startup script that somehow automatically got symlinked on one machine, but on another, it didn't.
[20:03] <Arch_NME> emrtle: that's a terminal command?
[20:03] <mattdawson> is that something that ubuntu might have done?
[20:03] <mertle> Arch_NME: yep
[20:03] <jolaren> I want to change my default audio mixer in alsamixer to PCM from Master Front, how do I do this?
[20:04] <Arch_NME> mertle: yeah that found it as well
[20:04] <Losha> mattdawson: it would happen if you installed a firewalling a package on one machine but not the other...
[20:04] <bribroder> azi`, you may try --reinstalling libgl1-mesa-glx and libgl1-mesa-dri
[20:05] <mattdawson> Losha: hmm. okay. i actually don't remember installing one...
[20:05] <mertle> jolaren: tried right clicking the sound icon in the panel?
[20:05] <hermann_> alskj;asdf
[20:05] <hermann_> asdfasdf
[20:05] <hermann_> fff
[20:05] <hermann_> asdf
[20:05] <FloodBot3> hermann_: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[20:05] <jolaren> mertle: I did try that, doesnt work
[20:06] <bribroder> azi`, and be sure to restart of course :)
[20:06] <_pHI_> hi, i was curious if there's a neat way to print from emacs to a cups printer?
[20:06] <_pHI_>  i am really new to this...
[20:06] <_pHI_>  but got spoiled by the windows print dialog that is also available in ubuntu for some of the gtk2 apps
[20:06] <azi`> bribroder: ok. thank you for your time
[20:06] <Arch_NME> this may seem a foolish question but where do you suppose that program is now that it's installed?
[20:06] <hermann_> nick abc
[20:06] <Losha> mattdawson: It might also happen if one of the machines has multiple network interfaces, or you installed some other kind of packet filtering package...
[20:06] <hermann_> asdfa
[20:06] <hermann_> ssaf
[20:07] <guntbert> hermann_: stop that please
[20:07] <hermann_> ok
[20:07] <Losha> Arch_NME: try 'which nvclock'. If that doesn't work, there are only a few other places to look...
[20:07] <bribroder> azi`, you're probably better at this in any case... driver problems freak me out
[20:07] <hermann_> exit
[20:08] <hermann_> 
[20:08] <Arch_NME> "/usr/bin/nvclock" that worked
[20:08] <mattdawson> Losha: is it a bad idea to symlink my script into rcX.d myself?
[20:08] <mattdawson> like, is that the kind of thing that'll get overwritten?
[20:09] <mertle> mattdawson: there's update-rc in karmic if that is what you're using
[20:09] <akiteko> mattdawson: Yes it is bad, really bad. It's Evil.
[20:10] <mattdawson> mertle: ah, yes. I am.
[20:10] <mattdawson> aktieko: i kinda figured. ;)
[20:10] <_pHI_> no ideas about printing from emacs to cups printer? with duplex?
[20:10] <akiteko> isn't it update-rc.d ? Like in debian (if i'm not mistaking)
[20:11] <Losha> mattdawson: I've linked scripts by hand, that's essentially what the update-rc.d script does, but it's better to use update-rc.d. And yes, they can be overwritten when you upgrade, which is why you have backups...
[20:11] <UnderSampled> How am I supposed to use DISPLAY=hostname:layour.screen where hostname is a different computer?
[20:11] <UnderSampled> when I try that, it tells me that no protocol was specified
[20:11] <rocket16> I have 9.10 running, and within a few days, 10.04 releases. So, if I download the Alternate CD, can I install Ubuntu 10.04 atop 9.10?
[20:11] <mattdawson> hmm...where is update-rc.d?
[20:11] <mattdawson> i don't see it in /etc
[20:12] <mertle> /usr/bin
[20:12] <Losha> mattdawson: which  update-rc.d; man update-rc.d
[20:12] <tw|master^brb> well thanks for no help anyway ^^
[20:12] <tw|master^brb> bye :)
[20:13] <mertle> rocket16: you should get the oppurtunity to upgrade to 10.04
[20:13] <Losha> rocket16: note that although 10.04 will come out at the end of April, it probably won't be *stable* until June/July...
[20:13] <rocket16> mertle: Thanks, but I want a CD, such that, if it fails anyway, I can make it once again.
[20:13] <rocket16> Losha: Oh, thanks.
[20:14] <alket> I just installed ubuntu in my fathers lap top but i cant connect to wireless ?
[20:14] <Losha> UnderSampled: you set the environment variable DISPLAY using the new hostname....
[20:15] <mertle> !wifi > alket:
[20:15] <alket> mertle: I dont understand
[20:15] <UnderSampled> Losha: I'm running my command with DISPLAY= infront
[20:15] <guntbert> UnderSampled: I suggest you do it the easy way: use ssh -X to connect to the server (thats a big X, so X gets forwarded through the ssh connection)
[20:15] <mertle> !wifi | alket:
[20:15] <mertle> alket: I hope it helps
[20:15] <mattdawson> so update-rc.d is new in karmic?
[20:16] <UnderSampled> guntbert: I'm trying to display on the other computer, but run on the computer where I issue the command
[20:16] <e1000u_> nn
[20:16] <Losha> UnderSampled: that's the idea. Check that your parameters are correct. The exact line you're typing might help...
[20:16] <Losha> mattdawson: I see it in 8.04...
[20:16] <trism> UnderSampled: you need to make sure XAUTHORITY is correct to, since they moved the location in karmic
[20:17] <alket> mertle: It doesnt help
[20:17] <UnderSampled> Losha: DISPLAY=192.168.1.104:0 firefox
[20:17] <guntbert> UnderSampled: ok - then listen to Losha please
[20:17] <mertle> alket: where doeds it fall short?
[20:17] <UnderSampled> I'm actually still on 9.4
[20:17] <trism> UnderSampled: ahh, then I don't know
[20:17] <alket> mertle: i connect from network manager and it tries to connect but it fails
[20:18] <UnderSampled> how do you do it in karmic?
[20:18] <mattdawson> Losha: ahh, good. thanks for your help, everyone!
[20:18] <craniumslows> hi room
[20:18] <overmind> Hi user
[20:18] <craniumslows> :D
[20:18] <guntbert> UnderSampled: you will have to allow X access to the "other computer" ( there is xhost...)
[20:19] <mertle> alket: I don't use wifi - that bot command is the extent of my knowledge as far as wifi goes - someone else will know
[20:19] <craniumslows> I can't believe how much easier setting up a second display was thanks to the nvidia binary
[20:19] <UnderSampled> guntbert: so...
[20:19] <Androidfan647> i am trying to get my bluetooth dial up network to work on 10.04.  i am trying to tether my nexus 1 signal to my laptop via an android app called p d a net which i have gotten to work on windows before i bankrate it to you later
[20:19] <alket> mertle: thank you
[20:19] <mertle> np
[20:19] <Losha> UnderSampled: um, try it with something simpler and smaller first e.g. gnome-terminal. Also, I don't use bash much. Don't you need an 'export' or an 'env' command to do this?
[20:19] <alket> Who can help me how to connect with wireless, because i cant
[20:20] <guntbert> UnderSampled: sorry - its been too long ago that I tried that
[20:20] <craniumslows> alket: What chipset is your wireless card?
[20:20] <UnderSampled> Losha: I believe I have been able to run it before on the native computer (where it's just :1
[20:20] <alket> craniumslows: how do i check that
[20:21] <ZykoticK9> alket, "lspci | grep Ethernet" should list your ethernet cards, including wireless
[20:22] <Losha> UnderSampled: well try it with gnome-terminal. Does it say 'cannot open display'?
[20:22] <craniumslows> alket: Does it show up under Network Device on System->Administration->Network Tools ?
[20:22] <Losha> d
[20:22] <alket> craniumslows,ZykoticK9: 00:0a.0 Bridge: nVidia Corporation CK804 Ethernet Controller (rev a3)
[20:23] <ZykoticK9> alket, that isn't the wireless one though
[20:23] <ZykoticK9> alket, actually, with Bridge - "perhaps" it is
[20:23] <craniumslows> alket: If the card doesn't show up in your network then it may not have a driver loaded
[20:24] <craniumslows> alket: what is the manufacturer and model number?
[20:24] <alket> http://pastebin.com/MrFQDH02
[20:24] <UnderSampled> Losha: is there a way to list current layouts/screens?
[20:25] <Canonical> http://www.ubuntu.org
[20:25] <alket> it shows my wireless but when i want to connect to it it fails
[20:25] <stopsign> i 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 ?
[20:25] <craniumslows> alket, ZykoticK9 : you can see other networks listed then?
[20:25] <ZykoticK9> craniumslows, i don't no
[20:26] <alket> craniumslows: Yes i can, but when i want to connect to a wireless ESSID that I used to connect in Win7 it fails
[20:26] <craniumslows> ZykoticK9: sorry he was talking at both of us so I wasn't sure if you were at the same place
[20:26] <Androidfan647> i am able to pair  my device but i cannot connect:-)
[20:27]  * UnderSampled will be back in a minute
[20:27] <craniumslows> alket: What encryption are you using and do you have mac filtering on?
[20:27] <alket> craniumslows: No the mac is as same as in windows
[20:28] <craniumslows> alket: I mean for your router
[20:28] <Androidfan647> does anyone here have knowledge of the bluetooth dial up network
[20:28] <craniumslows> alket: do you have mac filtering / what encryption are you using?
[20:29] <ZykoticK9> craniumslows, though alket is now gone -- disabling encryption and trying to connect would be a GREAT next step
[20:30] <craniumslows> Androidfan647: I don't have any experience but does this Setup Doc help? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup
[20:30] <craniumslows> ZykoticK9: Thanks yeah I'm thinking its a router configuration type problem
[20:30] <Arch_NME> is there a way to open a file in gedit from the gui with admin privleges?
[20:30] <craniumslows> Setup a launcher maybe?
[20:31] <ZykoticK9> Arch_NME, "gksu gedit /path/to/file"
[20:31] <Arch_NME> well I mean from the gui
[20:31] <Arch_NME> without having to go into terminal and type stuff
[20:31] <laristech> Does anyone know of a dell server with raid 1 that works perfectly with Ubuntu server?
[20:31] <Arch_NME> like a htokey or something
[20:31] <drbongo> Hi I have a strange problem with the terminal
[20:31] <ZykoticK9> Arch_NME, don't fear the terminal :)
[20:31] <Arch_NME> I don't I'm just lazy
[20:32] <drbongo> I can't type the character 'e' unless I press insert first
[20:32] <histo> Arch_NME: gksu gedit filename
[20:32] <histo> Arch_NME: youc an just use nano in a terminal also
[20:32] <drbongo> If I press e it just beeps, no character is written
[20:32] <ZykoticK9> histo, that was my suggestion - which was shot down
[20:32] <histo> ahh
[20:32] <drbongo> This also happens in xterm
[20:32] <Arch_NME> I was hoping just to click stuff
[20:33] <Arch_NME> like "run as.."
[20:33] <histo> Arch_NME: there is no way that I know of to just click to get root priveleges.
[20:33] <drbongo> Can anyone help?
[20:33] <histo> Arch_NME: Let me do some searching
[20:33] <ZykoticK9> Arch_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] <histo> Arch_NME: I know what you mean now like the windows run as... diaglog
[20:33] <Arch_NME> oh I can google it myself I just thought one of you all might know offhand
[20:33] <Canonical> open http://www.ubuntu.org
[20:34] <drbongo> I use gksu nautilus
[20:34] <ZykoticK9> Canonical, do you have a question?  or are you just advertising for ubuntu?
[20:34] <Arch_NME> Zykotick: that's even more hassle
[20:34] <histo> Arch_NME: the easier way would be hit alt+f2 and gksu gedit
[20:34] <ZykoticK9> !tab > Arch_NME
[20:35] <ZykoticK9> Arch_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_NME> ZykoticK9: yes yes
[20:35] <histo> Arch_NME: looks liek the nautilus-gksu package is what you want
[20:35] <ilumi> i 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 it
[20:35] <ZykoticK9> histo, +1 forgot about that
[20:36] <Arch_NME> it's just instinct my fingers move faster than my brain
[20:36] <ZykoticK9> Arch_NME, look into histo's suggestion - probably exactly what you want
[20:36] <histo> Arch_NME: install nautilus-gksu then restart X
[20:37] <histo> Arch_NME: it adds admin priveleges to the context menu
[20:37] <ZykoticK9> nautilus-open-terminal is also VERY handy, lets you right click Open in Terminal
[20:38] <Arch_NME> histo:  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 terminal
[20:38] <histo> Arch_NME: no its your computer to customize as you see fit
[20:38] <histo> Arch_NME: it just adds a link int he right click menu to open as administrator
[20:39] <Arch_NME> yeah that's exactly what I wanted
[20:39] <histo> Arch_NME: not really a bad Idea its what ever works for you.
[20:39] <histo> !best
[20:39] <drbongo> Can anyone help with a gnome-terminal question?
[20:40] <No_Soul> quick off-topic question (sort of)   I'm a programmer and am looking for suggestions for programs to make....   got any ideas? :)
[20:40] <maximus_> hey ppl, is ther any application similar to itunes for linux, i need to perform file copy and all tat to my ipod
[20:40] <histo> !ask | drbongo
[20:40] <histo> No_Soul: try in #ubuntu-offtopic
[20:40] <histo> maximus_: rhythmbox
[20:41] <histo> maximus_: applications > sound & video > rhythmbo
[20:41] <drbongo> OK - I can't type an 'e' in gnome terminal - works in other apps - just beeps in terminal, unless I press insert first
[20:41] <maximus_> thanks histo, i ll check it
[20:41] <akashv> !nat
[20:41] <craniumslows> rhythmbox is your best bet but it hates my podcasts
[20:41] <histo> drbongo: system > preferences > keyboard make sure you layout isn't goofy
[20:41] <akashv> how do i set up NAT in ubuntu server?
[20:42] <histo> craniumslows: maximus_ new version coming out in lucid supports ipod 3g touch and iphone
[20:42] <histo> !nat | akashv
[20:42] <craniumslows> histo: thanks for the update sounds sweet
[20:42] <histo> !firewall > akashv
[20:42] <drbongo> Keyboard layout is UK, I can type 'e' in other apps just not a terminal or xterm
[20:42] <maximus_> histo: tat would be great
[20:42] <histo> craniumslows: it works a lot better from what i've played with.
[20:42] <Losha> No_Soul: check out http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/
[20:43] <drbongo> This happened after I install some text tools, but no idea which one or why
[20:43] <histo> drbongo: is there a super key stuck?
[20:43] <histo> drbongo: what sort of text tools
[20:43] <drbongo> Negative, all keys work correctly except 'e' in a terminal - very strange it beeps
[20:44] <drbongo> Lots of text tools, too many to list, I have used them all before but not encounterd this issue
[20:44] <ZykoticK9> drbongo, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=499601 has the same issue - but just used a new account to fix, so no real sollution
[20:44] <Losha> drbongo: 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] <histo> ZykoticK9: maybe somthing in his .bashrc?
[20:45] <ZykoticK9> histo, perhaps?  I really don't know.
[20:45] <histo> drbongo: I found a bug hold up
[20:46] <histo> drbongo: 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] <Losha> !nat
[20:46] <drbongo> Thanks I will try that!
[20:47] <histo> drbongo: bug #370069
[20:47] <histo> bug #370069 | drbongo
[20:47] <ZykoticK9> Losha, !nat isn't working...
[20:47] <histo> hrm... usually ubottu intereprets the bugs ah well
[20:47] <Losha> ZykoticK9: I see that. Is ubottu malfunctioning currently?
[20:48] <ZykoticK9> Losha, says it doesn't know anything about nat
[20:48] <ZykoticK9> Losha, other commands are working?
[20:48] <histo> Losha: no there is no entry for nat just for firewall
[20:48] <drbongo> Negative, gnome-terminal keybindings for cut and paste set to default ctrl+shift+c/v
[20:49] <histo> Losha: was it you that wanted info on a nat gateway?
[20:49] <Losha> histo: actually, it was akashv. I was just curious to see what the nat entry said...
[20:50] <histo> akashv: you is that the info you wanted that ubottu sent or are you trying to share your internet connection?
[20:50] <histo> !ics | akashv
[20:51] <Patronick> quit
[20:51] <ZykoticK9> Losha, it must have been ics that you where thinking of, I don't have any !nat in my recorded factoids
[20:51] <drbongo> Sorry lost the connection - I have checked the console mode and 'e' doesn't work their either!
[20:52] <Losha> histo: ZykoticK9: might be nice if ops added a ubottu alias nat for firewall...
[20:52] <ZykoticK9> drbongo, do you have another user that you can test with?
[20:52] <ZykoticK9> Losha, agreed
[20:53] <craniumslows> Just an off the wall idea what about a touch type tutor
[20:53] <histo> Losha: you can add one or suggest it
[20:54] <drbongo> I can create another account - just tried dpkg-reconfigure console-setup - no joy keyboard layout was UK
[20:55] <ZykoticK9> drbongo, does upper case E work?
[20:55] <drbongo> The 'e' works when asked for a password! But not when typing normally
[20:55] <histo> Losha: atleast you used to be able to with ubotu
[20:55] <histo> drbongo: did you chenge the keyboard shortcut?
[20:55] <drbongo> Yes the uppercase E does work
[20:55] <histo> drbongo: its eactly the same behavior as that bug
[20:55] <drbongo> Did I change the keyboard shortcut for what?
[20:55] <craniumslows> This is a most interesting issue.
[20:56] <histo> drbongo: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-terminal/+bug/370069
[20:56] <histo> drbongo: the keyboard shortcut for paste as super+e
[20:56] <histo> drbongo: if you change to ctrl+shift+e your e should come back according to that bug
[20:57] <sweb> i install php5-dev
[20:57] <drbongo> I will try that!
[20:57] <sweb> where is the `phpize`
[20:57] <sweb> ?
[20:58] <drbongo> No that didn't work - I will create another user account
[20:58] <akashv> histo, Losha: It worked. Thanks. :)
[20:58] <hnd> C help
[20:59] <histo> Losha: http://ubottu.com/devel/wiki/Plugins#Aliasing_one_factoid_to_another
[20:59] <histo> askhl: what worked?
[20:59] <hnd> get_info() in struct proc_dir_entry... wht does it do
[21:00] <histo> akashv: what worked
[21:00] <histo> askhl: sorry wrong user I was trying to get akashv
[21:00] <Losha> histo: I spoke to ops. They told me to type /msg ubottu nat is <alias> firewall and the change would be reviewed, so it's in progress, thanks...
[21:00] <akashv> histo: nat
[21:00] <histo> Losha: yeah I was just sending you the link for usage.
[21:01] <histo> akashv: cool
[21:01] <computa_mike> Hi guys - have a packaging question.  I'm packaging a java application for Ubuntu - and I got it all working (mostly) but I can't get the menu option to appear...  Anyone got any ideas?
[21:01] <Losha> histo: I appreciate it, thanks.
[21:01] <varun_> hello people
[21:01] <jared_1> Had 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_Nick> What 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)
[21:02] <jared_1> just looking for mobo / raid controller / proc
[21:02] <varun_> I did not try earlier and I found after a couple of months that my cd drive is not working in ubuntu
[21:02] <drbongo_> New user account didn't make the 'e' work in a terminal either
[21:02] <varun_> anyone who could give me a few pointers
[21:02] <histo> jared_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_1> ah sorry for the mistake
[21:02] <histo> Cool_Nick: you are trying to share from windows to ubuntu?
[21:02] <jared_1> thanks histo
[21:02] <craniumslows> varun_, just ask aloud i'm sure someone will help ya
[21:03] <varun_> I have done
[21:03] <Cool_Nick> histo, correct (guest account enables..share created.  guest has permission to share and ntfs security)
[21:03] <histo> jared_1: they just have more experience with raid than people in here but someone may answer
[21:03] <varun_> cd rw drive not working ubuntu intrepid
[21:03] <varun_> help
[21:03] <histo> Cool_Nick: then you should be able to see it Places > Network
[21:03] <varun_> anone
[21:03] <sweb> i install php5-dev ... where is the `phpize` ???
[21:03] <craniumslows> varun_, does it not play audio or doesnt show in computer?
[21:03] <varun_> I can read from it
[21:03] <varun_> dvds and cds
[21:03] <Cool_Nick> histo, I see the computer...but it keeps asking for username and password and domain
[21:04] <varun_> but I inserted a rw cd and it does not detect
[21:04] <hnd> craniumslows: i asked no one hears me... :(
[21:04] <histo> Cool_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] <Losha> jared_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] <mertle> varun_: 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 writer
[21:04] <craniumslows> hnd, ask again i dont see ya on the screen
[21:05] <varun_> ya there is nothing on the cd
[21:05] <jared_1> they are, just want experience...I've ran many servers without any graphical environment hah
[21:05] <jared_1> just decided to try it out finally
[21:05] <hnd> get_info() in struct proc_dir_entry wht does it do
[21:05] <histo> jared_1: yeah its not a big deal to run the same packages with a gui on top.
[21:06] <drbongo_> I have found the problem by using bind -p : the "e" is not set to self-insert I will try to set it
[21:06] <histo> jared_1: but for the hardware i have no clue never played with raid
[21:06] <varun_> I also tried installing imgburn in wine and trying but it is also not detecting the writing medium
[21:07] <craniumslows> drbongo_, this is one gnarly problem
[21:07] <bastid_raZor> varun_: you're trying to burn an img file?
[21:07] <craniumslows> varun_, have you tried other brands of media / do commercial disks load properly?
[21:07] <szimmer> hi
[21:07] <craniumslows> hi
[21:07] <drbongo_> Got it - by typing bind e:self-insert it is fixed - now I have to work out what caused it
[21:07] <szimmer> can anyone here help me to set up my cron?
[21:08] <bastid_raZor> !cron | szimmer here is a howto
[21:08] <craniumslows> hnd, why are you digging in proc? It's probably documented somewhere
[21:08] <varun_> It reads from any brand of cd which has something on it
[21:08] <varun_> sony or moserbaer
[21:08] <roberto99> just a test text
[21:08] <hnd> hi
[21:08] <szimmer> well... i read this already...
[21:08] <szimmer> but it's somehow not working very well...
[21:09] <craniumslows> varun_, I would think its your media
[21:09] <szimmer> otherwise i wouldn't come and bother you...
[21:09] <ubuntu__> hello everyone
[21:09] <craniumslows> hi ubuntu__
[21:09] <drbongo_> Ok that only works temporarily - to make it stick I would have to put it in /etc/inputrc
[21:10] <craniumslows> szimmer, what do you want to do with cron?
[21:10] <ZykoticK9> craniumslows, you're like the "Walmart Greater" for #ubuntu right now ;)
[21:10] <ubuntu__> trying to fix an install ran LILO and my HD won't boot anymore, I've made a fresh install but it won't boot
[21:10] <szimmer> i want to check that the sshd daemon is running and restart it if it's killed...
[21:10] <brontosaurusrex> how weird is to run kate on gnome?
[21:10] <ubuntu__> I'm booting thru a Pendrive, I can see the HD (USB external), its all in there, but won't boot
[21:10] <derenrich_> help with error "relocation error: /lib/libglib-2.0.so.0: symbol __abort_msg, version GLIBC_PRIVATE not defined in file libc.so.6 with link time reference"
[21:10] <ZykoticK9> ubuntu__, LILO really?  How old school.
[21:11] <hnd_> craniumslows: am into kernel hacking these days... just started to get my hands wet
[21:11] <szimmer> so i have setup my crontab
[21:11] <pcm_> hello
[21:11] <hnd_> hello
[21:11] <szimmer> but it's not executing it properly...
[21:11] <craniumslows> ZykoticK9, i get into that mode sometimes
[21:11] <Losha> hnd: you might ask one of the contributors listed here: http://kerneltrap.org/mailarchive/git-commits-head/2008/4/29/1655584
[21:11] <craniumslows> hi pcm_
[21:11] <mertle> brontosaurusrex: not too weird - it will be slow to start as the kdelibs will have to be loaded
[21:11] <pcm_> i have a problem with ubuntu configuration
[21:11] <craniumslows> szimmer, webmin has a nice webbased gui to cron shtuff
[21:12] <ZykoticK9> !webmin
[21:12] <pcm_> is it here for help?
[21:12] <brontosaurusrex> mertle: should be stable once going?
[21:12] <craniumslows> Thanks
[21:12] <mertle> brontosaurusrex: sure - the kdelibs should be installed as deps but it should be fine
[21:12] <szimmer> sorry but i don't think i can follow... what is ebox?
[21:13] <ZykoticK9> pcm_, yes - but you need to give some details of your issue
[21:13] <j_> question about reinstalling Ubuntu . I have home partation and / partation. so if i reinstall all my setting is auto matically save to /home?
[21:13] <pcm_> yeah sure
[21:13] <ubuntu__> any clues on how to have it fixed or should I just get the HD to the trash can?
[21:13] <luis_> I need help urgently pls: how I can install sopcast plugin into firefox?!
[21:13] <ZykoticK9> szimmer, i don't personally recommend ebox actually - but i recommend you DON'T use Webmin
[21:13] <luis_> I need help urgently pls: how I can install sopcast plugin into firefox?!
[21:13] <Losha> !ebox | szimmer
[21:13] <Flannel> ubuntu__: why are you trying to use lilo?
[21:13] <karim_frl> HELLO
[21:13] <pcm_> so i have a ubuntu 9.10 on a fuijitsu siemens right now, and i have some sound problems
[21:13] <drbongo_> Looks like it might have been caused by wyrd or screen - I will uninstall and see if this fixes things
[21:14] <ubuntu__> trying to fix an install ran LILO and my HD won't boot anymore, I've made a fresh install but it won't boot.  I'm booting thru a Pendrive, I can see the HD (USB external), its all in there, but won't boot
[21:14] <varun_> @craniumslow you might be right but the thing is that the cd drive itself is not detected in gnomebaker when I try to begin a writing.The message is no writing drive detected
[21:14] <mertle> j_: your configs should be in your /home /user folder already as dot files
[21:14] <szimmer> but it should be really straightforward... i have my crontab setup but somehow it's not executing it....
[21:14] <szimmer> though it should...
[21:14] <Flannel> szimmer: Do you have a blank line at the end of your crontab?
[21:14] <pcm_> sound doesnt work with jack output
[21:14] <szimmer> pcm what kind of pc?
[21:15] <craniumslows> szimmer, you might grab a GUI frontend i've jumped to that after too many stupid typos have ruined a good nigths sleeep
[21:15] <Heebie> Hello.  I just installed xen.. and now my desktop won't start.. either in "low graphics mode" or a regular start.  Is there a program I can call from the command-line to reset X to using standard drivers?
[21:15] <hnd> ok so am playing with procfs... wht does get_info() in struct proc_dir_entry do???
[21:15] <pcm_> fuijitsu siemens li 1705
[21:15] <ZykoticK9> Heebie, move the current /etc/X11/xorg.conf to another name, then try restarting X
[21:16] <Heebie> ZykoticK9: Thanks. I'll give that  shot. :)
[21:16] <Losha> szimmer: do you have cron entries in /var/log/syslog that show crontab is executing your commands?
[21:16] <Lxndr> I have five *.doc files. I want to compile them into a single pdf. How can I do this?
[21:16] <Losha> hnd: did you see my message above?
[21:16] <craniumslows> hnd, * "get_info" is called at "read", while "owner" is used to protect module
[21:16] <craniumslows>  * from unloading while proc_dir_entry is in use
[21:16] <szimmer> actually yes...
[21:16] <craniumslows> hnd, http://man.developpez.com/include/linux/proc_fs.php
[21:16] <szimmer> i think the blank line did the trick
[21:17] <nealmcb> I'm trying to install ubuntu 9.10 netbook remix on a dell inspiron mini 1012.  I'd like to live boot it from an sdcard - is that possible?  E.g. could I use unetbootin to put the iso on /dev/mmcblk0  as a live boot?
[21:17] <pcm_> sound ok from speakers
[21:17] <hnd> yaay :D thnx craniumslows!!!
[21:17] <Flannel> szimmer: One way to 'enforce' that is to add a comment at the end saying "# DONT PUT ANYTHING BELOW THIS" and then include a blank line under it
[21:17] <dannek7> hey all
[21:17] <craniumslows> hi
[21:18] <hnd> hey
[21:18] <zdene> Does anyone know a FOSS utility to browse a PDF's internal structure? in a tree view of objects or something?
[21:18] <pepper_haze> does anyone here know how to get the device name of their webcam and mic?
[21:18] <kermit> why is it that everytime i write to a loop device, the device changes ownership to root?
[21:18] <szimmer> lsusb?
[21:18] <szimmer> pepper_haze -> lsusb
[21:18] <pepper_haze> lsusb doesn't work for me
[21:18] <Lxndr> I have five *.doc files. I want to compile them into a single pdf. How can I do this?
[21:18] <craniumslows> pepper_haze, dmesg ?
[21:19] <pepper_haze> i'll try dmesg
[21:19] <luis_> I need urgent help pls: how I can install sopcast plugin into firefox????!!!!
[21:19] <szimmer> yay the blank line did the trick thanks FLANNEL!
[21:19] <ra21vi> my server currently has Ubuntu 8.04 (Hardy) .. I need to upgrade it to 8.10 then 9.04 then 9.10 .. I only have access to ssh command line .. how can I upgrade it
[21:19] <pcm_> so anyone?
[21:19] <zaxonspox> @Lxndr use OpenOffice and export to PDF
[21:20] <Improviz> Ubuntu newb here. Trying to repurpose older Dell for disabled friend with Ubuntu. Installed but get "cannot get C/H/S values" on bootup
[21:20] <Flannel> ra21vi: Why do you want to do that?  Just wait a month then upgrade straight to 10.04
[21:20] <craniumslows> pcm_, i haven't been following closely have you tried diff dvds/cd rws
[21:20] <Losha> ra21vi: tricky, since you might lose connectivity during an upgrade and never be able to get it back. Why do you need to upgrade anyway?
[21:20] <ra21vi> Flannel: can I upgrade directly from 8.04 to 10.04 (no reinstallation possible since server is remote)
[21:20] <Flannel> ra21vi: You can, yes.
[21:21] <derenrich_> how do i view pdf using less?
[21:21] <Flannel> ra21vi: And once 10.04 is released, the instructions will be linked from here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[21:21] <pcm_> well sound is ok on speakers but not headphones output for nothing
[21:21] <ra21vi> Losha: means? why should I not upgrade ?? anyway, I need a lot new things.
[21:21] <szimmer> derenrich: why would you want to do that?
[21:21] <pepper_haze> how do you read dmesg?
[21:21] <craniumslows> pcm_, so is it an unamplified channel?
[21:21] <derenrich_> szimmer: there is a plugin that renders it nicely
[21:22] <derenrich_> szimmer: i just don't know what package it's in
[21:22] <craniumslows> pepper_haze,  you might redirecto output its long
[21:22] <Losha> ra21vi: the problem with remove upgrades remains: you might lose connectivity during the upgrade and never be able to get it back...
[21:22] <Lxndr> zaxonspox: 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] <Losha> ra21vi: remove -> remote
[21:22] <ra21vi> Flannel: thanks :)  I will wait then..
[21:22] <hnd> peppr_haze: cat /var/log/dmesg
[21:22] <szimmer> or just dmesg
[21:22] <Flannel> Losha: there's no reason to think that'll happen
[21:22] <mertle> derenrich: try in terminal   apt-cache search pdf   it should show up
[21:22] <craniumslows> all this rum has got me swetting
[21:22] <pcm_> craniumslows, i dont think so dont realy know how to check that out
[21:22] <Losha> Flannel: except for Murphy's law, you mean...
[21:23] <Blastur> hello. if i upgrade to lucid beta 2 today, will it be a problem to upgrade it to lucid final later on?
[21:23] <Flannel> Losha: If we wanted to go by that, no one should ever upgrade, ever.
[21:23] <ra21vi> Losha: cannot you use Screen for such problem?
[21:23] <Flannel> Blastur: Nope, you'll just use regular daily updates.  #ubuntu+1 is the channel for Lucid Support though.
[21:23] <zaxonspox> @Lxndr Y need to import 5 doc into one file in Writer
[21:23] <hnd> Blastur nopes... i dont think so...
[21:23] <Improviz> Any 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 CD
[21:23] <craniumslows> pcm_, if its the same plug you are plugging into you should look into your sound preferences
[21:24] <hiexpo> but ya cant take it back if ya decide ya dontlike it
[21:24] <hnd> Improviz: whts the exact situation
[21:24] <Losha> Flannel: 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 laptop
[21:24] <Improviz> Installed 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] <Flannel> Losha: 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.
[21:25] <craniumslows> pcm_, you should go tot he sound preferences
[21:25] <pepper_haze> craniumslows, how do you redirecto output?
[21:25] <pcm_> craniumslows, ive done that and cant realy se what is wrong
[21:25] <hnd> ok try e2fsck might be due to some filesystem error
[21:25] <craniumslows> pepper_haze, do dmesg > somefile.txt; gedit somefile.txt
[21:26] <craniumslows> pepper_haze, then you can look through it
[21:26] <craniumslows> pepper_haze, its all the kernel msgs
[21:26] <Improviz> I'm on the machine in question now, running from Live CD
[21:26] <craniumslows> pepper_haze, you should be able to find your device there if its found
[21:26] <craniumslows> pcm_, under hardware do you have more than 1 option
[21:26] <Jadoza> anyone feeling like sharing a nice conky setup? :)
[21:26] <hnd> Improviz: e2fsck -b 32768 /dev/<your ubuntu drive>
[21:26] <ra21vi> Flannel 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] <Losha> Flannel: 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...
[21:27] <Flannel> Losha: We walk them through finishing it.  It's not the end of the world.
[21:27] <Losha> Flannel: ok...
[21:27] <hnd> Improviz: exxample e2fsck -b 32768 /dev/sda5
[21:27] <craniumslows> This is my kinda irc channel
[21:27] <ra21vi> Losha: don't you upgrade ? Dont say no
[21:27] <craniumslows> busy but not old skool haxxorz busy
[21:27] <hnd> craniumslows: agreed!!! :D
[21:28] <cleifer> anybody know how to get the location bar to be editable in 10.04 nautilus?
[21:28] <Guest30232> i just installed xfc4 and when i login it seems to load gnome on top of it?
[21:28] <craniumslows> hnd, you were looking at kernel hacking yes?
[21:28] <pcm_> craniumslows, i know have nothing
[21:28] <mertle> Jadoza: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=281865&highlight=conky+setup
[21:28] <Losha> ra21vi: I'm still running 8.04 on my critical server. And I'll wait a few months for 10.4 to stabilize before I consider upgrading...
[21:28] <hnd> craniumslows: yup yup :D
[21:28] <Flannel> cleifer: #ubuntu+1 for Lucid support, thanks.
[21:28] <pcm_> craniumslows, used to be one choice
[21:29] <cleifer> Flannel, thnx
[21:29] <Jadoza> mertle, Thanks :)
[21:29] <craniumslows> hnd, you might consider picking up the oriely book understanding the linux kernel
[21:29] <hnd> i have it :) i was reading it just now... its open on my lap
[21:29] <craniumslows> ha ha

[21:33] <tvstebut> Hello
[21:33] <Jadoza> mertle, 1239 pages of configs .... jesus christ
[21:33] <tvstebut> my machine doesn't ping , that's the log : http://pastebin.fr/7498
[21:33] <zaxonspox> @craniumslows did not, will chech, but my problem is, i dont have a floppy drive, only mounted an image
[21:34] <mertle> Jadoza: start from the last and work back :)
[21:34] <guntbert> !br | adriano_
[21:34] <craniumslows> zaxonspox, what are you playing with floppies for then
[21:34] <adriano_> eles não me responde,
[21:34] <szimmer> grr... although cron works - i just kicked myself out of my machine....
[21:35] <szimmer> but issuing /usr/sbin/sshd should restart right?
[21:35] <hnd> yup
[21:35] <hnd> most probably
[21:35] <Improviz> Tried it - "1 or more block  bad. Fix?"
[21:35] <hnd> yes
[21:35] <zaxonspox> @craniumslows i want to install grub on floppy image, but get only errors, floppy image with grub need for VirtualBox
[21:35] <hnd> Improviz: just "yes" everything
[21:36] <Improviz> It fixed a whole bunch of bad stuff, said "filesystem on sda1 contains 1 or more errors, forcing check"
[21:36] <hnd> i think it will work...
[21:36] <Improviz> Now terminal is scrolling what I guess are endless checksums?
[21:36] <hnd> may be...
[21:36] <craniumslows> zaxonspox, try this out maybe ? boot from cd http://www.oats.org.uk/linux/gruboot.htm
[21:36] <frxstrem> how secure is PGP encryption in Ubuntu?
[21:37] <ACKT1C> hi
[21:37] <Jadoza> frxstrem, For what purpose?
[21:37] <craniumslows> frxstrem, isn't pgp encryption uniform across distributions ?
[21:37] <hnd> hi
[21:37] <craniumslows> hi ACKT1C
[21:37] <frxstrem> Jadoza: just for general (personal) use - nothing special
[21:37] <Improviz> Hmm. Then got a bunch of "free blocks count wrong for group x. Fix?"
[21:37] <craniumslows> fschk?
[21:37] <craniumslows> fsck?
[21:37] <szimmer> guys... i have a question regarding my original purpose of the cron job....
[21:38] <Losha> Improviz: how did your disk get corrupt in the first place?
[21:38] <hnd> Improviz: yes again
[21:38] <szimmer> i wanted to have a script that checks that sshd is running and restart it if it's not...
[21:38] <Jadoza> frxstrem, But what do you want to do? I use OpenPGP for encrypting e-mails, that works really good
[21:38] <Improviz> OK, fixed everything and got: /dev/sda1: ***** FILE SYSTEM WAS MODIFIED *****
[21:38] <Improviz> /dev/sda1: 130547/9625600 files (0.1% non-contiguous), 1180749/38499764 blocks
[21:38] <Jadoza> But I guess there are tons of other uses
[21:38] <hnd> restart
[21:38] <Improviz> Think I should try booting from the HD now?
[21:38] <hnd> sudo shutdown -r now
[21:38] <Improviz> OK, thanks, I'll give it a try, appreciate the help
[21:38] <hnd> yup yup
[21:39] <craniumslows> woo
[21:39] <Improviz> adios for now
[21:39] <szimmer> and i used a script that checked that /var/run/sshd.pid exists...
[21:39] <hnd> just tell me back whether it worked or not
[21:39] <Guest22866> i have a linksys home router that my pc is wired to and my laptop accesses wirelessly. how can I set up a home network for file sharing?
[21:39] <ACKT1C> ramdiskers!
[21:39] <szimmer> if not it would issue /usr/sbin/sshd
[21:39] <craniumslows> Is http://lmgtfy.com/ too rude to use for answers?
[21:39] <guntbert> craniumslows: yes
[21:39] <Jadoza> !google | craniumslows
[21:39] <Losha> craniumslows: yes, though tempting, it's explicitly frowned upon...
[21:40] <szimmer> !google
[21:40] <craniumslows> WoO I am glad this room's got the mod love

[21:40] <FloodBot3> hnd: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[21:40] <craniumslows> Isn't initd in charge of sshd ?
[21:41] <hnd> alright
[21:41] <darkside__> i need a gui to stream my music over shoutcast?
[21:41] <Guest22866> i have a linksys home router that my pc is wired to and my laptop accesses wirelessly. how can I set up a home network for file sharing?
[21:41]  * ACKT1C laughs at removable keys
[21:41] <tvstebut> But why did nobody answer to my paste ?
[21:41] <shab1> hi
[21:41] <guntbert> craniumslows: not necessarily - it can run stand alone too
[21:41] <craniumslows> Guest22866, do you have the same os on both?
[21:41] <shab1> what software player mp4 for nokia 6120?
[21:41] <zaxonspox> @craniumslows thanks for help, i think i would use ISO instead of floppy image
[21:41] <hiexpo> !hi
[21:41] <spiky> Guest22866 use ssh server
[21:42] <darkside__> i need a gui to stream my music over shoutcast?
[21:42] <szimmer> so how would you do this instead of having sshd running?
[21:42] <craniumslows> zaxonspox, right on it seems like the floppy should be MIB memory deviced from the collective
[21:42] <Guest22866> cranium> yes, 9.10 on both
[21:42] <bodom> Hi there, I guesst I've found a bug
[21:42] <pcm_> craniumslows, so i restarted i know have a hardware in the list but just on. spekers work, not headphones
[21:42] <Losha> tvstebut: because I don't know the answer to your question....
[21:42] <guntbert> !bug | bodom
[21:42] <ACKT1C> no streaming remotely
[21:42] <pcm_> craniumslows, just one*
[21:42] <bodom> guntbert: the problem is I have no idea of wich package it affects
[21:42] <craniumslows> pcm_, what do you have on the output tab
[21:42] <tvstebut> :{
[21:43] <Guest22866> craniumslows> yes, 9.10 on both
[21:43] <pcm_> craniumslows, it just disapeared again, i koow only have dummy output
[21:43] <guntbert> bodom: please read the links you got - they tell you what to do
[21:43] <craniumslows> Guest22866 you can try Samba maybe ? Depends on how complicated you want to be
[21:43] <szimmer> so any idea how i can ensure that the ssh server is still running even after having killed it?
[21:44] <Losha> tvstebut: how are 10.8.0.6 and 192.168.121.1 connected?
[21:44] <ACKT1C> dos linux = left out
[21:44] <craniumslows> pcm_, can you get the hardware device info ?
[21:44] <craniumslows> Guest22866, you should be able to right click a folder and say sharing options
[21:45] <tvstebut> Losha a router
[21:45] <craniumslows> Guest22866, Also ubuntu One is an AMAZING service if you are mainly on ubunta
[21:45] <craniumslows> *ubuntu
[21:45] <Guest22866> craniumslows> hmm. ill try it
[21:45] <guntbert> szimmer: what is your problem?
[21:45] <cooper[desktop]> how do you scp a whole directory?
[21:46] <Losha> tvstebut: the router should be answering the arp request 'who has 10.8.0.6 tell 192.168.121.1'. It doesn't, so my first guess is the router is misconfigured...
[21:46] <ACKT1C> an outpu cmd
[21:46] <craniumslows> Guest22866,  http://www.simplehelp.net/2007/05/19/how-to-share-files-and-folders-in-ubuntu/ support doc
[21:46] <szimmer> well... i'm fiddling around with afs on two computers... when i restart the afs daemon it killed ssh. a different user suggested to have a cronjob who takes care that if the ssh daemon is killed it's restarted...
[21:46] <tvstebut> Losha : Im pinging like this : 10.8.0.6 -> [10.8.0.1 | 192.168.121.254] ->192.168.121.1
[21:47] <craniumslows> szimmer, I like to let inetd deal with it
[21:47] <hnd> i hope Improviz got his comp fixed
[21:47] <szimmer> so i had a script looking whether /var/run/sshd.pid exists and if it doesn't to issue /usr/sbin/sshd
[21:47] <craniumslows> szimmer, under running with inetd http://www.ruf.rice.edu/~rlug/help/tips-ssh.html
[21:48] <pcm_> craniumslows, lshw command gives me: product: VT1708/A [Azalia HDAC] (VIA High Definition Audio Controller)
[21:48] <tvstebut> Losha, in fact, thats the log from the target machine, not the router
[21:49] <ki0wa_> Hi all
[21:49] <hnd> hi
[21:49] <craniumslows> hi hi
[21:50] <craniumslows> pcm_, You might try following this document : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto
[21:50] <hnd> hmmm its time to say gudbye... feeling sleepy... g'night everyone... sweet dreams
[21:50] <craniumslows> gnight hnd
[21:50] <hnd> :)
[21:50] <craniumslows> pcm_, It's probably a driver deal
[21:51] <craniumslows> wb
[21:51] <pcm_> craniumslows, thought so, i have driver=HDA Intel latency=0
[21:52] <craniumslows> pcm_, laptops i haven't used much but this posting was linked http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1043568
[21:52] <ki0wa_> I've installed a linux version, after ubuntu. Now, in grub, if I choose first linux, it says VGA=CURRENT IS DEPRECATED. USE SET GFXPAYLOAD=TEXT BEFORE LINUX COMMAND INSTEAD
[21:52] <Losha> tvstebut: 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...

[21:53] <ACKT1C> ...
[21:53] <craniumslows> wb Improvis
[21:53] <tvstebut> hmmm
[21:54] <Improviz> Well, no love. I boot (Karmic 9.10), get presented with a screen that shows several Ubuntu selections, plus Memtest. None boot
[21:54] <Improviz> All result in "Cannot get C/H/S values"
[21:54]  * ACKT1C snickers
[21:54] <tvstebut> Losha, what kind of configuration is concerned ?
[21:54] <ACKT1C> american megatrends it is
[21:55] <Improviz> Pretty sure that's Cylinder and Sector
[21:56] <Losha> tvstebut: check the network masks on the 2 router interfaces, and then check the routing tables. Can you ping from the router itself to .1 ?
[21:56] <tvstebut> sure I can
[21:56] <Improviz> Anyone else have an idea on boot error "Cannot get C/H/S values" ?
[21:56] <ki0wa_> I've installed a linux version, after ubuntu. Now, in grub, if I choose first linux, it says VGA=CURRENT IS DEPRECATED. USE SET GFXPAYLOAD=TEXT BEFORE LINUX COMMAND INSTEAD

[21:58] <EL_g00nE> oooya...talk dirtyyyyy
[21:58] <ACKT1C> pepper_haze cool nickname
[21:58] <Losha> tvstebut: then that suggests the problem is in the routing of packets through the router, check routing tables. Usually this stuff is self-configuring. Is there something odd about your setup you haven't mentioned?
[21:58] <pepper_haze> !language | EL_g00nE

[21:59] <EL_g00nE> dmmit whatd i say?
[21:59] <ACKT1C> proc
[22:00] <ACKT1C> interrupt procedure
[22:00] <ACKT1C> or locally
[22:00] <Losha> EL_g00nE: we do computer support here, not porn. You're wasting your own (and our) time. Try #ubuntu-offtopic...
[22:00] <EL_g00nE> aaaaah okay
[22:00] <pepper_haze> losha, they say the same thing there too
[22:01] <KeithChester> Hello everyone. The bottom bar in gnome, which holds the programs that are currently open in the default ubuntu, does not have a "delete this panel" option. How do I get rid of it?
[22:01] <pepper_haze> they want it to be family friendly
[22:01] <EL_g00nE> i dont even like linux
[22:01] <ShazbotMcNasty> EL_g00nE, go away
[22:01] <szimmer> then you're probably wrong here
[22:01] <Losha> pepper_haze: they don't talk about porn on offtopic?
[22:01] <frxstrem> can I export my PGP key from "Passwords and Encryption Keys" to another computer and still be able to decrypt files with it?
[22:01] <szimmer> don't think so...
[22:01] <pepper_haze> no losha, they say its not family friendly there either
[22:01] <ShazbotMcNasty> KeithChester, it's usually just in right click menu.
[22:02] <Improviz> Looking for help with boot error "Cannot get C/H/S values..."
[22:02] <pepper_haze> I don't even know if you can talk about anything that isn't family friendly on freenode
[22:02] <ShazbotMcNasty> As in, just right click the panel and it should be there. Or right click and go into preferences if you can.
[22:02] <ShazbotMcNasty> KeithChester,
[22:02] <pepper_haze> YOu can't even talk about portscanning with nmapper there
[22:02] <szimmer> so any other guess on how i can ensure that the ssh daemon is running / will be restarted after i have killed it (or some other process has done so)?
[22:02] <KeithChester> ShazbotMcNasty, - Delete this panel is grayed out, and nothing in the preferences men shows anything that allows me to get rid of it.
[22:02] <ACKT1C> logout
[22:03] <ACKT1C> dos
[22:03] <craniumslows> szimmer, I figured inetd would do it if you have the sshd -i flag
[22:03] <Losha> pepper_haze: just have to make do with googling irc+porn then I suppose...
[22:03] <Improviz> ackt1c who are you talking to?
[22:03] <craniumslows> Dalnet used to be the porn hub

[22:04] <pepper_haze> we will guntbert
[22:04] <Losha> EL_g00nE: some of us use our computers to do actual work. I know, weird idea huh?
[22:04] <ki0wa_> craniumslows: I can boot in ubuntu
[22:04] <Improviz> I installed Karmic 9.10 onto HD, wiped/formatted it. Now I get a menu of several choices when booting, but all return the same error
[22:04] <pepper_haze> sorry guntbert
[22:04] <craniumslows> Improviz, Have you recently modified the FAT Table?
[22:04] <craniumslows> ki0wa_, So that error you see is the other installation saying hey you're calling me incorrectly
[22:04] <Improviz> craniumslows: this machine had XP on it, I wiped it with the Karmic 9.10 install CD
[22:04] <mertle> Improviz: grub is still on the mbr it would seem
[22:05] <pepper_haze> anyway, back to my webcam, how do I record a video with vlc, when I don't know the device name
[22:05] <EL_g00nE> Losha: blows my mind, i'll believe that when i see it...
[22:05] <ki0wa_> craniumslows: got it. How can I fix it?
[22:05] <Improviz> I'm guessing but not sure. I'm a Linux/Ubuntu newb
[22:05] <mertle> pepper_haze: it would be /dev/video0 iirc
[22:05] <pepper_haze> what is it for mic?
[22:05] <og01> what do i need for video drivers? i've updated from 8.? to 9.10
[22:05] <Losha> pepper_haze: sometimes you can see the assigned device name by running dmesg, usually shortly after you plug the device in...
[22:05] <craniumslows> ki0wa_, what was the other line item/what os are you trying to boot
[22:05] <og01> and now xbmc isnt working properly
[22:05] <zaxonspox> Improviz what now do you have on disk? XP, Ubuntu or nothink?
[22:05] <szimmer> craniumslows: is this behavior of inetd ubuntu-specific or does it work on SL 5 as well?
[22:06] <Improviz> Ubuntu installed on HD
[22:06] <pepper_haze> mertle, I have a built in mic, what do I use for that?
[22:06] <craniumslows> szimmer, inetd should be inetd afaik I'd have to play with it at work where I have SL
[22:06] <zaxonspox> Improviz try run LiveCD run Terminal and Re-Install GRUB

[22:07] <craniumslows> ki0wa_, so is the Unkown linux distro what you're trying to boot into?
[22:07] <mertle> pepper_haze: is there a /dev/audio - I don't use mics
[22:07] <Improviz> zaxonspox: I'm running Live right now. How would I go about reinstalling GRUB>
[22:07] <Improviz> I have a terminal open
[22:07] <szimmer> but on the website it says that i have to do the configure in the ssh source directory...  but my ssh is installed not from source...
[22:07] <ki0wa_> craniumslows: yes, is moblin distro
[22:07] <szimmer> or am i doing something stupid?
[22:07] <pepper_haze> there is no dev audio
[22:07] <guntbert> Improviz: grub or grub2?
[22:08] <zaxonspox> Improviz type sudo grub  it will enter GRUB Shell
[22:08] <bond_recovery> hi all
[22:08] <Improviz> Just grub as far as I know

[22:08] <nyhcjedi> hey all
[22:08] <szimmer> zaxonspox: what version of ubuntu are you running?
[22:08] <Losha> bond_recovery: are you booted into the live cd?
[22:08] <pepper_haze> I wish that cheese had audio, that would be easier
[22:08] <bond_recovery> no

[22:09] <pepper_haze> someone on youtube found that mencoder works to record, but I can't get mencoder to record
[22:09] <craniumslows> ki0wa_, You might have killed it did you manually configure your partitions?
[22:09] <Improviz> Thx, going there now
[22:09] <nyhcjedi> Can I use virtualbox, set up a vm which is vista 64. I am currently using ubuntu and have vista already installed. Id like to try and setup a vm with the already installed vista is this possible?
[22:10] <ki0wa_> craniumslows: yes
[22:10] <bond_recovery> Losha: this not possible?
[22:10] <craniumslows> Improviz, that article helped me out :D
[22:10] <bastid_raZor> szimmer: if you installed openssh-server then ssh will automatically start. if you manually stop ssh(d) then you'll need to manually start it.
[22:10] <guntbert> nyhcjedi: ask in #vbox please
[22:10] <nyhcjedi> hmmm
[22:10] <szimmer> yeah and this is what i want to prevent
[22:10] <pepper_haze> anyone here know how to use mencoder?
[22:10] <nyhcjedi> sure
[22:10] <nyhcjedi> sorry
[22:10] <craniumslows> ki0wa_, what was the error again?
[22:10] <zaxonspox> nyhcjedi yes, but you need to "map" phisical drive into VirtualBox drive, and Vista would pleas to activate
[22:11]  * craniumslows just found a package of mixxed nuts from xmas i hope they're still good

[22:11] <libtech> how do you configure multitouch gestures in ubuntu?
[22:11] <ki0wa_> craniumslows: wich error?
[22:11] <Losha> bond_recovery: I'm sure it's possible, I personally am not familiar with recovery mode. Perhaps someone else can help...
[22:11] <og01> hey i've updated my mediacenter recntly to 9.10 karmic, and im getting problems with video/sound, mplayer and xbmc both play videos slightly slowly and with no sound. xbmc plays mp3s without sound. but mythtv works fine. as do other apps/games/programs... any help?
[22:11] <szimmer> openssh-server is running... but if i restart afs it kills the ssh daemon - hence i lose my connectivity to access it remotely... to prevent this i want a script that restarts the ssh server if its not runnign
[22:11] <craniumslows> ki0wa_, what does it say when you go to boot moblin
[22:11] <vicsar> @pepper_haze i don but what is the question?
[22:12] <bond_recovery> someone else can me help?
[22:12] <ki0wa_> craniumslows: VGA=CURRENT IS DEPRECATED. USE SET GFXPAYLOAD=TEXT BEFORE LINUX COMMAND INSTEAD ERROR: COULDN'T READ FILE
[22:12] <craniumslows> ki0wa_, you need to edit your GRUB file
[22:12] <szimmer> what was your problem again bond_recovery
[22:12] <guntbert> szimmer: my first thought: prevent afs from killing sshd
[22:12] <szimmer> well... that's easier said than done...
[22:12] <hiexpo> ubuntu restriced extras
[22:12] <Flannel> szimmer: Or get AFS to start sshd when it restarts
[22:12] <craniumslows> szimmer, is this on a mac or no?
[22:13] <ki0wa_> craniumslows: OK
[22:13] <bond_recovery> repeat: i need check my / for errors
[22:13] <totimkopf> hi, how do i apt-get the recent version of php, it keeps trying to install 5.2 :S
[22:13] <szimmer> no... ibm pc
[22:13] <craniumslows> ki0wa_, did you get that url posted earlier about restoring grub?
[22:13] <szimmer> afs  = openafs
[22:13] <peturi> yes ok
[22:13] <craniumslows> ok
[22:13] <peturi> and then?
[22:13] <og01> hiexpo: was that aimed at me?
[22:13] <ki0wa_> craniumslows: nope
[22:14] <vicsar> @pepper_haze what is your question?
[22:14] <hiexpo> yes
[22:14] <szimmer> bond_recovery: umount /dev/hda and then do a chkdsk
[22:14] <bond_recovery> hehe
[22:14] <bond_recovery> device busy
[22:14] <shaqfu> I just fired up a new install, and I think X froze
[22:14] <og01> hiexpo: its already isntalled, it got upgraded along with the update to karmic
[22:14] <Losha> tvstebut: 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] <guntbert> szimmer: do you have an idea as to why/how afs kill sshd?
[22:14] <og01> hiexpo: recon i should remove then install again?
[22:14] <shay2772> Hello , i would like to format my Disk-on-key (usb) to ntfs from Ubuntu , how can i do that ?
[22:14] <shaqfu> But it froze during a drive check
[22:14] <pepper_haze> vicsar, I want to record video and mic with a webcam
[22:14] <szimmer> are you on it right now?
[22:14] <szimmer> no unfortunately not...
[22:14] <shaqfu> And I'm afraid to kill it
[22:14] <Flannel> totimkopf: What version of php are you looking for?
[22:14] <pepper_haze> someone knew how to do it with mencoader, but I don't
[22:14] <guntbert> !who | szimmer
[22:14] <hiexpo> og01, do u have the w322 codecs in stalled also
[22:15] <totimkopf> Flannel, 5.3, and i don't want to compile it, i want it as a package :)
[22:15] <Jadoza> there's a process I can't kill. I started it by running ./mprime & disown from a terminal. No matter if I kill mprime, kill the process#, sudo it or whatever. What to do?
[22:15] <hiexpo> w32 sorry
[22:15] <szimmer> sorry...
[22:15] <Flannel> totimkopf: What from 5.3 are you looking for?
[22:15] <bond_recovery> argh...
[22:15] <shaqfu> I checked ps aux, and it's not running fsck
[22:15] <og01> hiexpo: not aware of w32...
[22:15] <totimkopf> 5.3.0 would be good enough
[22:15] <hiexpo> you need those also
[22:15] <shaqfu> Should I just kill -9 gdm?
[22:15] <totimkopf> any 5.3 version
[22:15] <craniumslows> ki0wa_, check out http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Karmic#Use_Startup_Manager_to_change_Grub_settings
[22:15] <vicsar> @pepper_haze okay, it sound to me that using mencoder to do that is way too dificult
[22:16] <vicsar> @pepper_haze why not use cheese
[22:16] <tvstebut> Losha, I appreciate your point of view, BTW I tryed to open router with ACCEPT ALL on iptables...but no change
[22:16] <ki0wa_> craniumslows: thanks
[22:16] <Flannel> totimkopf: Anything specific that you need 5.3 for?
[22:16] <vicsar> @pepper_haze or other application?
[22:16] <hiexpo> og01, u watch dvds on it to ?
[22:16] <pepper_haze> I would like to use cheese, but cheese doesn't have audio
[22:16] <totimkopf> Flannel, yeah, lots of changes have been made since 5.2
[22:16] <Losha> pepper_haze: anything here help? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=821901
[22:16] <totimkopf> 5.2 is what i have and it sucks
[22:16] <guntbert> szimmer: try to search the server logs for a reason
[22:16] <pepper_haze> losha do you know the website for mencoder?
[22:17] <craniumslows> ki0wa_, you should be able to get to the grub file you may need to check the docs for moblin for a specific format for that distro
[22:17] <og01> hiexpo: yes, im not sure if im on the right track here, its mainly divx xvid mp3s that im playing here
[22:17] <vicsar> @pepper_haze or other application?
[22:17] <Losha> pepper_haze: Sigh. Top two hits when you google 'mencoder'....
[22:17] <vicsar> @pepper_haze i found this that might help you: http://www.mplayerhq.hu/DOCS/HTML/en/mencoder.html
[22:17] <szimmer> sure 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] <Flannel> totimkopf: Lucid will have 5.3.2, Karmic has 5.2 plus some updates
[22:18] <hiexpo> og01, ok just install those packages i mentioned than
[22:18] <szimmer> i thought a cron job would be helpful
[22:18] <Flannel> totimkopf: So, you'll have to wait for Lucid
[22:18] <hiexpo> brb
[22:18] <Flannel> szimmer: You could certainly do it in a cron job, check if ssh is running, and start it if it isn't
[22:18] <og01> hiexpo: the w32codec i think arnt avaliable for amd64, and also i think its mainly for wma files?
[22:18] <totimkopf> Flannel, i guess i'll just have to find a deb package or compile it
[22:18] <Flannel> totimkopf: Or wait a month.
[22:18] <totimkopf> i'm sure as hell not going to wait :D
[22:18] <szimmer> yeah that's what i thought i would do...
[22:18] <totimkopf> Flannel, nah, i'm studying for ZCE, i can't wait
[22:19] <og01> hiexpo: restricted extras was already installed... but i'll remove then install again
[22:19] <guntbert> szimmer: second idea: why not use inetd to start/restart sshd?
[22:19] <ACKT1C> hi
[22:19] <craniumslows> guntbert, thats what i said :P
[22:19] <ACKT1C> i'm a teyr-old
[22:19] <craniumslows> hi ACKT1C
[22:19] <ACKT1C> i'm a tenyrold-boy
[22:20] <shay2772> how can i find out which name is assigned to my device under /dev/sd.. ?
[22:20] <craniumslows> szimmer, does this need to be deployed under SL and Ubuntu?
[22:20] <szimmer> yes
[22:20] <Losha> ACKT1C: hello. Do you need computer help?
[22:20] <hiexpo> no there fine u need the w32 codecs
[22:20] <craniumslows> shay2772, mount will show you everything
[22:20] <guntbert> craniumslows: without success obviously :)
[22:20] <mertle> shay2772: or   df -h
[22:20] <vicsar> @pepper_haze see if this does the trick: http://positrones.net/wiki/doku.php?id=geektips:record_webcam
[22:20] <craniumslows> szimmer, Are you using OS X server or regular?
[22:21] <Flannel> szimmer: Does AFS bring down your interface entirely? or what?
[22:21] <og01> hiexpo: no package name w32codecs
[22:21] <nixererer> after stopping gdm i cant start alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such file or directory      ; how can i fix this?
[22:21] <ShazbotMcNasty> spellcheck in openoffice.org is completely broken
[22:21] <ShazbotMcNasty> does anyone know how to set default dictionary in openoffice?
[22:21] <hiexpo> hold on let me find it
[22:21] <ShazbotMcNasty> girlfriend is going CRAZY over the lack of spellcheck
[22:21] <ACKT1C> hrm
[22:21] <Sachse_Siechtum> LOL
[22:22] <craniumslows> ACKT1C, whats up?
[22:22] <ACKT1C> e:\
[22:22] <shay2772> mertle: i would like to format my usb flash drive (disk-on-key) but i am not sure which name is used for the device under /dev/ ?
[22:22] <hiexpo> type in synaptic w32
[22:22] <pepper_haze> vicsar: thank you fro that website, that site is perfect for me
[22:23] <mertle> shay2772: sudo fdisk -l should work
[22:23] <zaxonspox> shay2772 type sudo fdisk -l and search for your Flash Drive Size
[22:23] <og01> hiexpo: cant find w32 in synaptic
[22:23] <Improviz> Tried all the stuff on the grub fix web page, will reboot and give it a whirl, thanks again
[22:23] <Improviz> quit
[22:23] <vicsar> @pepper_haze glad to hear it
[22:23] <ZeroKewl> i need help setting up Debconf silcd in ubuntu
[22:23] <hiexpo> ok let me get the command
[22:24] <mertle> og01: that is in the medibuntu repos iirc
[22:24] <og01> mertle: do i need it to play avi contained xvids and divx?
[22:24] <og01> mertle: cause im sure i've never needed it before
[22:24] <mertle> og01: no - ubuntu-restricted-extras should do
[22:24] <ZeroKewl> any help on that
[22:25] <og01> mertle: i've got that, already, since updating my mediacenter to 9.10 i've had slow video and no sound in xbmc, mplayer. however mythtv is fine as is practicly any other app...
[22:26] <trijntje> how can I copy a key from the default keyring?
[22:26] <og01> mertle: i've tried removing and re-isntalling ubuntu-restricted-extras
[22:26] <craniumslows> szimmer, in mac osx are you enabling remote logon under System Pref > Sharing -> Services ?
[22:26] <mertle> og01: have a search for ugly in synaptic - I'm not on karmic atm
[22:27] <shay2772> Does anyone can recommend me on good tool for making Ubuntu Installation ISO to work on USB flash drive (disk-on-key) (usb creator not working well for me)
[22:27] <hiexpo> sudo apt-get install w32codecs
[22:27] <craniumslows> szimmer, also for the mac its encouraged to use launchd
[22:27] <zaxonspox> shay2772 Ubuntu got already One inside
[22:28] <craniumslows> i could spend all day in here
[22:28] <joaopinto> shay2772, use the usb creator tool which is available on the ubuntu repositories
[22:28] <mertle> shay2772: there is unetbootin
[22:28] <og01> mertle: already installed
[22:28] <bribroder> shay2772:  i also recommend unetbootin over the preinstalled creator
[22:28] <littlegirl> Does anybody have an LG Rumor 2 cell phone and use the SD card to transfer data to Ubuntu, and is there a hassle to do this or does it work out of the box?
[22:29] <trijntje> How can I get a password from the default keyring? I want to copy my wepkey
[22:29] <zaxonspox> shay2772 in Ubuntu System>Administration there is Assistant for Bootable USB
[22:29] <mertle> og01: might be time to ask the xbmc people - and my mplayer is borked on my karmic as well - takes forever to load...
[22:29] <og01> mertle: it loads fine, just looks like no sound
[22:30] <mertle> og01: if everything else plays the avi's fine then it is the app afaik
[22:30] <littlegirl> Rephrasing: Are there specific SD card readers that will work with ubuntu or will any reader work?
[22:30] <zaxonspox> littlegirl should work, you need a data cable for usb, is it external card, or built in cell ?
[22:30] <szimmer> craniumslows: Flannel - it's not apple - it's openafs = andrew file system
[22:30] <littlegirl> zaxonspox: External card.
[22:30] <og01> mertle: two completly different apps?
[22:30] <og01> mertle: same symptom
[22:30] <Flannel> szimmer: Yes.  Does it bring down your interface when it restarts? or what's going on there?
[22:31] <craniumslows> szimmer, I was trying to figure out if you are deploying across Mac OS X and Ubuntu i thought you said yes
[22:31] <mertle> og01: how many other apps play the files fine?
[22:31] <szimmer> nope...
[22:31] <craniumslows> ok
[22:31] <dim705> Hello. I've a problem with the view in Ubuntu. After, let's say 15 minutes, my eyes start to burn and I get headache. The view in Ubuntu is somehow blurred. The Ubuntu Version is 10.4 beta. The graphic card is Intel Corporation 82945G/GZ Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02) but I could not found the driver version. Can somebody help me? Thanks a lot!
[22:31] <zaxonspox> littlegirl plug in cable, should recognize as storage device
[22:31] <og01> mertle: well mythtv plays recorded tv fine, but thats all its setup to do
[22:31] <szimmer> Flannel, that's what i'm trying to figure out... apparently the whole network connection dies when i try to restart afs....
[22:31] <trijntje> !lucid | dim705
[22:31] <og01> mertle: i could install other players as a test
[22:31] <hiexpo> !lucid
[22:31] <zaxonspox> littlegirl after all done dont forget to unmount
[22:31] <mertle> og01: try vlc maybe
[22:31] <craniumslows> dim705, you might adjust the refresh rate under pref-> display
[22:31] <littlegirl> zaxonspox: It will need an SD card reader. Can I use any reader or are there only specific ones that work with Ubuntu?
[22:32] <littlegirl> zaxonspox: Okay, I won't forget. (:
[22:32] <szimmer> craniumslows: no that was a misunderstanding... my bad - i'm talking about openafs for both Ubuntu and Scientific Linux
[22:32] <dim705> Thank you very much ubottu!
[22:32] <craniumslows> szimmer, and you've tried intetd and it doesnt do the job?
[22:32] <og01> mertle: vlc uses built in codecs afaik....
[22:32] <zaxonspox> littlegirl so do you use a card reader or a cable to connect to phone? any card reader should be fine
[22:32] <erikcartman> Greetingz, I have a username on ubuntu and I would like to change it, how do i do that? instead of eric for example to be luke...
[22:33] <og01> mertle: ok vlc has no sound either
[22:33] <mertle> og01: it's your call - if you have the restricted extras afaik avi's should play
[22:33] <littlegirl> zaxonspox: We're thinking about buying SD cards for our new phones, and we haven't bought those or a reader yet. It will need to plug into a reader that plugs into the computer.
[22:33] <szimmer> well... right now i can't do it -- both computers that i wanted to play with lost connection.... one is still intact but sshd is down and the other one is dead with respect to the netwrok
[22:33] <navetz> can someone help me figure out what version of java my eclipse is using on ubuntu?
[22:33] <mertle> og01: in terminal type   alsamixer   and turn them all up
[22:33] <og01> mertle: done that
[22:33] <XubuntuJason> anyone know a good dvd player in xubuntu?
[22:34] <JoshuaL> vlc
[22:34] <Ryguy> can someone help me connect to a wireless network on 9.10? I'm on my laptop and I cant seem to activate the Broadcom B43 wireless driver
[22:34] <mertle> og01: much output from   lsmod | grep snd   ?
[22:34] <og01> mertle: i have a few games installed, all have perfectly working soudn
[22:34] <hiexpo> XubuntuJason, i use vlc
[22:34] <littlegirl> zaxonspox: Thanks for the help. I guess we'll get those. (:
[22:34] <soreau> ! broadcom | Ryguy
[22:34] <Ryguy> thanks
[22:34] <zaxonspox> littlegirl card reader connected throug external USB port, or inside a PC box? I didnt see not working card reader
[22:34] <og01> mertle: the menu in xbmc has working sound... (ie it clicks when selecting menu items)
[22:35] <littlegirl> zaxonspox: The reader will connect via USB.
[22:35] <mertle> og01: don't know what else to suggest then
[22:35] <szimmer> so craniumslows i haven't had the chance to try out inetd.... and i'd rather understand why my plan didn't succeed...
[22:35] <soreau> XubuntuJason: mplayer is the all-around best IMHO but it may depend on yuor purposes. There is also vnc and totem
[22:35] <og01> mertle: yeah its why i came here, i've tried all these things, and i dunno whats up
[22:35] <daftykins> og01: i run XBMC atop karmic 9.10
[22:36] <og01> daftykins: i've just updated to karmic, which is when my problems started
[22:36] <daftykins> og01: i have a .asoundrc file in my ~ which configures it to use my optical out, iec958, then in XBMC's settings it's set to use iec958 too
[22:36] <craniumslows> szimmer, Cron jobs can be either userlevel or system level and they are run either as root or as the user depending on where the script you are running is located and "who" tries to execute it could cause issues
[22:36] <Ryguy> how am I supposed to download and install the drivers if I cant connect to the internet on the laptop?
[22:36] <mertle> og01: last suggestion - is the card using the master or pcm as the wannabe master? - I use pcm it seems to work better
[22:36] <daftykins> Ryguy: cable.
[22:36] <craniumslows> Ryguy, thumb drive
[22:36] <craniumslows> Ryguy, i had the same damn headache i bought a thumbdrive and borrowed some floppies
[22:36] <Ryguy> I'm running off the only thumb drive I got and no wired ethernet cable =S
[22:37] <szimmer> okay i'm aware of that but shouldn't a cronjob under root that executes properly just restart the ssh server...
[22:37] <Ryguy> floppies? =S
[22:37] <og01> daftykins: can you pastebin your .asoundrc so i can get an idea of the format - as i dont at current use one
[22:37] <daftykins> og01: 1 sec
[22:37] <craniumslows> szimmer, did you pastebin your shell script?
[22:38] <szimmer> pastebin?
[22:38] <craniumslows> szimmer, do you know the contents of the script that was being called?
[22:38] <szimmer> yes
[22:38] <szimmer> essentially it did the following
[22:38] <littlegirl> szimmer: http://paste.ubuntu.com/
[22:39] <daftykins> og01: http://pastebin.com/AD5QkCDW
[22:39] <daftykins> og01: "hdmi" for HDMI, etc.
[22:39] <Ryguy> well.. the thing is.. when I open System > Admin > Hardware Drivers, "Broadcom B43 wireless driver" is listed but when I try to activate it, it acts like it's trying to activate it then just tells me that I am not connected to any networks and stays deactivated
[22:39] <SoftLace1> hello i have a question could i bother someone for help please?
[22:39] <szimmer> ah now i see.... so pastebin is to show others the code i just used?
[22:39] <craniumslows> szimmer, yes indeed
[22:39] <daftykins> !ask | SoftLace1
[22:39] <szimmer> thanks
[22:40] <craniumslows> szimmer, yep it floods the channel to paste it
[22:40] <szimmer> i'll do so asap
[22:40] <craniumslows> szimmer, Troubleshooting we prolly should look at that script then move up
[22:40] <og01> daftykins: thanks let me take a look
[22:40] <SoftLace1> im using adobe-flashplugin installed, the mozilla firefox ppa, and can't get flash to work.
[22:40] <ACKT1C> hit it
[22:40] <daftykins> og01: are you just running it from your PC/laptop over stereo speakers though, or optical/HDMI as i mention?
[22:42] <og01> daftykins: its a dedicated mediacenter pc under my tv, but its using analog stereo out
[22:42] <og01> (ie normal 2.1 speaker output jack)
[22:42] <sam_> hello
[22:43] <og01> daftykins: im not really sure that this is the problem :(
[22:43] <craniumslows> SoftLace1, does the flash player not work or does it say its like too old
[22:43] <ACKT1C> hi
[22:43] <daftykins> og01: ah right ok. yeah i have an Ion based HTPC. what was the test video?
[22:43] <szimmer> http://paste.ubuntu.com/412300/
[22:43] <og01> daftykins: my whole collect seems to fail at the moment also mp3s
[22:43] <Guest55815> im new to ubuntu, i wanted to try xfce4, but it seems to be loading over the top of gnome?
[22:43] <Guest55815> things are messed up
[22:43] <szimmer> this is the script executed every minute setup in cron...
[22:44] <og01> daftykins: i cant see any obvious error from mplayer
[22:44] <og01> daftykins: mainly xvid videos
[22:44] <daftykins> og01: ok check what the audio hardware settings are in XBMC, also try hitting up their IRC channel. the guys there know some common mistakes
[22:44] <craniumslows> szimmer, is your output file being modified every minute? at least prior to that?
[22:44] <szimmer> yes
[22:44] <szimmer> plus i get the logger message
[22:44] <szimmer> every minute... therefore i know that the file was executed....
[22:45] <szimmer> but apparently sshd restart didn't work...
[22:45] <craniumslows> do you ever see the sshd restarted part?
[22:45] <ACKT1C> ubuntu is a dos head for xp users casper/ubiquity masking american megatrends ramdisk
[22:45] <szimmer> no that's when i got kicked out..
[22:45] <SoftLace1> i have the current version of flash
[22:46] <craniumslows> ok being kicked out means that sshd is prolly restarting
[22:46] <craniumslows> szimmer, at least that's what I'd suspect
[22:46] <szimmer> so to test that it really did what i wanted i killed sshd
[22:46] <craniumslows> szimmer, it is likely that your test is faulty
[22:46] <szimmer> and then it should have been restarted automatically
[22:46] <craniumslows> szimmer, it might be
[22:46] <craniumslows> szimmer, imma try here
[22:46] <ki0wa_> craniumslows: not fixed.. :(

[22:50] <proof> just installed ubuntu-server, had my wireless working with ndiswrapper and wpa_suppllicant
[22:50] <mshadle> szimmer: no, it doesn't. just /dev/sda stuff.
[22:50] <erikcartman> pepper_haze,  i don't have acces to change my home file's name...it's like in grey..../home/ericcartman/
[22:50] <pepper_haze> I see
[22:50] <proof> but after installing ubuntu-desktop "assossiation request to the driver failed"
[22:50] <proof> weak
[22:51] <pepper_haze> erikcartman, sorry to try to give help, I am for help here myself
[22:51] <bribroder> erikcartman: do you have another account?
[22:51] <erikcartman> pepper_haze,  hey it's ok, thank you for your help
[22:51] <craniumslows> erikcartman,  you would technically be making a new user and then copying their files over
[22:51] <proof> anyone know why ubuntu-desktop would suddenly stop wpa_supplicant from working?
[22:51] <szimmer> erikcartman: didn't the stuff outlined in the link work?
[22:51] <itscrimet> ACKT1C is useableart.com down ?
[22:51] <mshadle> szimmer: it was "blkid" :)
[22:51] <erikcartman> bribroder,  one account and root
[22:51] <mertle> proof: you prob need to open network manager
[22:51] <szimmer> okay... good to know
[22:52] <proof> didnt install...........
[22:52] <erikcartman> szimmer,  yes but will that change my home folder name and terminal name too?
[22:52] <proof> bleh
[22:52] <szimmer> yes
[22:52] <mertle> proof: prob came with the desktop
[22:52] <ACKT1C> itscrimet: works
[22:52] <szimmer> it's global
[22:52] <proof> = server disc
[22:52] <craniumslows> szimmer, imma read up the sshd documentation maybe there's a flag
[22:52] <proof> = very minimal
[22:52] <Losha> itscrimet: please use http://downforeveryoneorjustme.com/
[22:52] <erikcartman> Also is there an operator here?
[22:53] <erikcartman> Seems I get a lot of inapropriate pms here..
[22:53] <mertle> proof> but after installing ubuntu-desktop - means it prob was installed
[22:53] <erikcartman> Maybe spam boots...
[22:53] <zaxonspox> erikcartman did you want to change the account dislay name or account name in home directory?
[22:54] <Losha> erikcartman: might be your nick attracts them...
[22:54] <mertle> erikcartman: some newbies do that - I don't know why
[22:54] <proof> dont see it anywheres
[22:54] <bribroder> erikcartman: you should probably be on google. this isn't hard.
[22:54] <erikcartman> zaxonspox, I want to change my account dispaly name and I am wondering if this will change my home folder name, and my terminal too...
[22:55] <mertle> proof: is there an icon top right for the network?
[22:55] <erikcartman> bribroder, I will try...
[22:55] <scott546> Hey guys and gals, does anyone have any idea how to stop Ubuntu nagging me for my password on login when I try to connect to a wireless network?
[22:55] <zaxonspox> erikcartman no, you can change one if you what display name, then only diplay name
[22:55] <jopa> jopa
[22:55] <proof> oh snapple

[22:56] <szimmer> erikcartman: http://paste.ubuntu.com/412307/
[22:56] <mertle> !wifi | scott546 should be something in here about that
[22:56] <proof> doesnt look like my wireless device is listed though...
[22:57] <scott546> Will look, one sec.
[22:57] <erikcartman> szimmer,  old is current nickname and new is the nickname I want?
[22:57] <szimmer> yes

[22:57] <spiky> scott546 http://pherricoxide.wordpress.com/2009/02/22/ubuntu-keyring-password-change/
[22:58] <craniumslows> szimmer,  oh hey something I just noticed
[22:58] <craniumslows> szimmer, you have a relative path on your else branch
[22:58] <mertle> proof: I use a static ip so I disabled the network manager and set it up manually - maybe you could do that if that's what you did before
[22:58] <crypt-0> Amarok 2.2 gets stuck updateing collection at 92% any ideas to why?
[22:58] <scott546> Do I have to store them unencrypted in order to get the prompt to stop?
[22:58] <craniumslows> szimmer, also you might just output an ok message instead of calling exit
[22:59] <Very_Cool> whats the command to see the TOTAL size of file and directory contents of the current folder and subfolders?
[22:59] <szimmer> oh.... you mean i need the / in front?
[22:59] <erikcartman> szimmer, thank you so much
[22:59] <craniumslows> szimmer, probably

[22:59] <dr3mro> hello i was some day an amateur coder with C and QBASIC at times of windows 3.11 but i need to come back .. lots has changes and i really likes to start with c++ but i have a problem to choose GUI development lib ... 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 about
[22:59] <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).. My question ?? Do mono developed GTK apps with c++ uses as low RAM and CPU as GTKMM with geany ide example ??????????
[22:59] <craniumslows> szimmer, i'd try those 2 things
[22:59] <erikcartman> dr3mro,  try #ubuntu-programming
[23:00] <Jadoza> scott546, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=770201 ?
[23:00] <craniumslows> szimmer, i'm going to try and recreate your issue locally
[23:00] <szimmer> thanks
[23:00] <dr3mro> erikcartman  thanks
[23:01] <scott546> It isn't the key for my wireless connection it asks for but the password for the "password manager" so I effectivly have to enter my password twice when I login, it's rather annoying. The only way around it that I can see is to store my passwords unencrypted... Is this correct?
[23:01] <pepper_haze> does anyone here know why vlc won't detect my mic, when I have the right /dev
[23:01] <proof> brb
[23:01] <proof> thanks
[23:01] <szimmer> craniumslows: if it works, let me know... i suppose the / was the thing why it didn't restart porperly...
[23:01] <pepper_haze> I am using /dev/dsp1 for mic, and vlc won't detect it
[23:02] <spiky> scott546 did you look at the website I posted?
[23:02] <scott546> I did spiky.
[23:03] <spiky> scott546 is that not what you needed?
[23:03] <pepper_haze> who is Tyler_Number_1? he just sent me spam
[23:03] <craniumslows> szimmer, and its been identified
[23:03]  * craniumslows plays a trumpet
[23:03] <scott546> It would work Spiky but it would result in my passwords being stored unencrypted. Correct?
[23:04] <spiky> True
[23:04] <craniumslows> szimmer, if i run it without the / i get the error no such file or directory with the / i get ssh complaining about me not setting it up
[23:04] <craniumslows> who is thinking of unencrypting paswords?
[23:05] <ACKT1C> who
[23:05] <craniumslows> ?
[23:05] <szimmer> so after all it's just the / that kicked me?
[23:06] <craniumslows> szimmer, i can only guess
[23:06] <oli> hi, can I use 'profile' as a synonym of account on a community portal? ;]
[23:07] <szimmer> well can you try to kick your sshd and see whether it comes up again?
[23:07] <craniumslows> i need to config my sshd

[23:21] <myrl> it says read disk error
[23:22] <zaxonspox> Sigiken i have nad also graphical problem on Guest, but i couldnt stand that so i uninstalled GA on one machine, but then i have uninstalled ATI drivers from host and then was ok
[23:22] <craniumslows> myrl, I'm not trying to be dense I just want to be extra clear on this one.  You installed ubuntu you were able to acess your windows partition ok you rebooted tried to load windows and now see errro 2?
[23:22] <myrl> yes
[23:22] <myrl> i could mount it before
[23:22] <ACKT1C> exit code 2 is a punk
[23:23] <Sigiken> I have tried it earlier today, reinstalling drivers of my videocard, but nothing changed
[23:23] <abstrakt> how do i install a font?
[23:23] <craniumslows> myrl, after rebooting into ubuntu are you able to access windows partition any longer?
[23:23] <myrl> no

[23:23] <xangua> abstrakt*
[23:24] <zaxonspox> Sigiken ATI is known from older drivers than nVidia, also you have almost newset ATI 5xxx
[23:24] <craniumslows> myrl, lets see if your partition is still where you think it is. Pull up the disk utility under system-> admin
[23:24] <myrl> ok
[23:24] <myrl> yep it's there
[23:24] <craniumslows> myrl, is the partition name what you expect?
[23:24] <LLStarks> yo ripps.
[23:25] <og01> ok fixed my sound issues by removing pulseaudio
[23:25] <myrl> yes
[23:25] <myrl> it is OS
[23:25] <Sigiken> So, could it be because of the Videocard?
[23:25] <scott712> Gotta run, thanks for all the help everyone! OH quick question, will 9.10 update to 10.04 automatically?
[23:25] <myrl> thanks for trying to help :)
[23:26] <spiky> scott546 you are better off doing clean install
[23:26] <scott712> Ok thanks spiky
[23:26] <craniumslows> myrl, Was your windows installation only on the OS partiiton?
[23:26] <halim> scott712, nope, but you are going to be asked by the update manager
[23:26] <scott712> Ta ta.
[23:26] <myrl> i dont think so
[23:26] <myrl> it also had the recovery partititon
[23:26] <myrl> but nothing else
[23:27] <zaxonspox> Sigiken i have integrated ATI HD3200, when i installed ATI drivers i have got a lot of troubles. Screen Off, hangs... ATI drivers are like from a stoneages

[23:28] <myrl> craniumslows, ok how?
[23:28] <halim> i deleted the samba configuration folder (/etc/samba where smb.conf was), uninstalled samba, when i install it now it doesn't start, how can i get the original configuration files of samba back??
[23:28] <myrl> craniumslows, before it had it and it didn't load
[23:28] <xangua> weed37: have you already installed flash¿...
[23:29] <weed37> no
[23:29] <weed37> first time user
[23:29] <xangua> sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras | weed37
[23:29] <xangua> to install flash, fonts, codecs, etc
[23:29] <craniumslows> myrl,  did you run fdisk -l ?
[23:29] <Sigiken> but it is odd that compiz works and windowed games. So the chance is little that I can do something about it?
[23:30] <myrl> no, what is that?
[23:30] <craniumslows> ok
[23:30] <craniumslows> myrl, i am trying to help but you gotta follow along.  you should open a terminal its under applications/accessories
[23:30] <craniumslows> myrl, then run sudo fdisk -l
[23:30] <myrl> ok
[23:30] <myrl> :)
[23:31] <halim> i deleted the samba configuration folder (/etc/samba where smb.conf was), uninstalled samba, when i install it now it doesn't start, how can i get the original configuration files of samba back??

[23:31] <ACKT1C> keydrive
[23:31] <weed37> ok its building
[23:31] <Zorge> its a reasonably simple process if a user decides they are not keen on a second OS to revert the bootloader to boot straight into their original OS I take it?  Never needed to do it before for myself (always installed seperate OS on seperate drives while other drives unplugged here) so havent even considered
[23:31] <craniumslows> myrl, ok so on there it lists /dev/ items to the left right?
[23:31] <zaxonspox> Sigiken you can install newest kernel from system reps on host and guest, and reinstall GA, nothing more i cannot do for you
[23:31] <myrl> craniumslows, yep
[23:32] <myrl> craniumslows, it has the windows partition
[23:32] <robbmunson> Zorge, I would deem it easy...
[23:32] <craniumslows> myrl, good work so far so now on the far right it should say system
[23:32] <myrl> craniumslows, yes
[23:32] <craniumslows> myrl, under System for that partiion what does it say?
[23:32] <myrl> craniumslows,  HPFS/NTFS
[23:32] <Zorge> well thats a start robb
[23:32] <zaxonspox> Sigiken or maybe tray on guest in terminal glxgears to test 3D
[23:33] <eycel> pewf
[23:33] <ACKT1C> http tcp/ip
[23:33] <eycel> thanks
[23:33] <eycel> ;-)
[23:33] <ACKT1C> FLASH
[23:33] <craniumslows> myrl, alright so now lets try and make a place to try and mount this drive
[23:33] <tar-> can anyone tell me what adding the option "mode=1777" to an entry in /etc/fstab will do?
[23:33] <myrl> craniumslows,  ok
[23:34] <craniumslows> tar-, wont that set your default umask to 777 ?
[23:34] <doober> I can't update the tzdata package in UNR.  Can anyone help?
[23:34] <Sigiken> I'm not sure but I think I have the latest kernel, 2.6.31-20, but I'm not sure
[23:34] <tar-> craniumslows, as in r+w+x on all?
[23:34] <Sigiken> glxgears shows me some moving parts
[23:34] <myrl> craniumslows,  so what do i do now?
[23:34] <Zorge> actually at the moment the user in question has two copies of xp installed, one broken, I figured I'd make use of the partition and suggest giving linux a go, they only use it for net/mail so.  At the moment the system comes up with the option to boot into xp or xp, a bit messy
[23:34] <tar-> then what is the 1 for? o.o
[23:34] <mertle> Sigiken: try in terminal   uname -r
[23:35] <craniumslows> myrl, so lets make a new dir in your home folder cd ~/
[23:35] <vitium> I'm trying to launch retroshare - it asks me to create a gpg key with the form - I do that and then when I try to use the key it wants me to input the password but it just flashes the password box a few times and I do not have time to input my password. Is there a fix or a way in terminal of doing this?
[23:35] <myrl> ok
[23:35] <craniumslows> myrl, then mkdir windows
[23:35] <craniumslows> tar-, i'd think so i'll do a search right quick
[23:35] <szimmer> mhmm... is there any other way to access a machine to restart sshd remotely if it's down?
[23:36] <myrl> ok
[23:36] <ahau> Que onda ???
[23:36] <craniumslows> szimmer, telnet maybe?
[23:36] <Jadoza> omfg .... I just joined GIMPS ( www.mersenne.org ), and it's insane how big these numbers to be calculated are ... It takes my Athlon 2x2.4 GHz over a month at 2x100% capacity to check one number :D Hard to grasp the intensity of these numbers when you'r watching a 1080p using 5% CPU
[23:36] <ahau> oigan, alguien ha oido del nuevo ubuntu 10 ?
[23:36] <myrl> craniumslows,  next?
[23:36] <xangua> !es | ahau
[23:36] <szimmer> that's what i'm trying now...
[23:36] <ahau> Thanks my friends !!
[23:37] <ACKT1C> neat jad
[23:37] <soreau> Sigiken: You're running linux in a virtual machine?
[23:37] <craniumslows> myrl, ok try this command  sudo mount -t ntfs -o nls=utf8,umask=0222 /dev/hdXX ~/windows
[23:37] <Sigiken> I have about 10000-11000 frames in 5.0 seconds, but when I closed glxgears it showed me an error
[23:37] <Sigiken> yes in virtualbox
[23:37] <craniumslows> myrl, you need to specify the partition on the /dev/hdxx part and the full path to your directory you just made
[23:38] <craniumslows> szimmer, thats about all you can do remotely
[23:38] <craniumslows> szimmer,  sux
[23:38] <myrl> ok
[23:38] <soreau> Sigiken: Then your underlying hardware doesn't matter too much
[23:38] <craniumslows> myrl, let me know what it tells you
[23:38] <szimmer> well... so i actually need to go there and restart my computers manually... argh..
[23:38] <szimmer> *sigh*
[23:38] <soreau> Sigiken: If you ran linux directly, you would likely not have the problems you're experiencing
[23:38] <myrl> hmm it did it
[23:39] <craniumslows> szimmer, at least you're "local" I've accidentally done that to a server liek 1000 miles away
[23:39] <craniumslows> myrl, ok are your files on it?
[23:39] <marco> Alguém ai fala em portugues
[23:39] <Flannel> !pt | marco
[23:39] <myrl> um no...
[23:39] <szimmer> yeah that's the good thing i guess... and in order to prevent this from happening again, i will use this script again :)
[23:40] <craniumslows> myrl, is there anything in there?
[23:40] <Sigiken> oh, so the problem aint my videocard, happy to hear that :p
[23:40] <craniumslows> myrl, did it give you an errro?
[23:40] <szimmer> ubottu is a bot?
[23:40] <myrl> nothing is there and there is no error :(
[23:40] <craniumslows> szimmer, yep
[23:40] <craniumslows> ok
[23:40] <Flannel> ubottu: tell szimmer about yoursel
[23:40] <Flannel> ubottu: tell szimmer about yourself
[23:40] <craniumslows> ubottu: tell me about yourself
[23:40] <Sigiken> Well, 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 Ubuntu
[23:41] <szimmer> ubottu shut up
[23:41] <SirRedTooth> Wine? Virtualbox?
[23:41] <myrl> ubottu: hi
[23:41] <DarthPuff> i'm trying to use wpa_gui but i get "could not get status from wpa_supplicant
[23:41] <Sigiken> I'd liked to get more experienced in Ubuntu before I would install it next to windows
[23:42] <myrl> ubottu: eat pie
[23:42] <marco> nao sei fazer isto
[23:42] <craniumslows> Sigiken, the "unleashed" books i like
[23:42] <myrl> craniumslows,  help please?
[23:42] <Sigiken> thanks for the tip :) definatly going to take a look at it
[23:42] <craniumslows> myrl, so you did the sudo mount and it gave no err
[23:42] <zaxonspox> Sigiken then get know about GRUB, RunLevels, directory structures
[23:42] <doctorZeus> the 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 anyways
[23:42] <myrl> yes
[23:42] <craniumslows> myrl,  what does just typing sudo mount do?
[23:43] <myrl> craniumslows,  it says a lot of stuff
[23:43] <craniumslows> myrl, ok do any of the lines have /dev/sdXX on them?
[23:43] <myrl> craniumslows,  but it doesn't say the windows partition
[23:44] <myrl> craniumslows,  no
[23:45] <craniumslows> myrl,  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] <myrl> thanks
[23:46] <craniumslows> myrl,  You may have to reinstall windows and then resetup grub to get things working smoothly
[23:46] <Sigiken> nice, 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] <szimmer> wow ... how many bots are there in here?
[23:46] <craniumslows> szimmer, i dunno
[23:46] <myrl> craniumslows,  ok
[23:46] <doober> Anyone know why I can't update tzdata in Ubuntu Netbook Remix?
[23:46] <Improviz> Well, no luck. Still getting 'Cannot get C/H/S values" when I try to boot from HD
[23:46] <szimmer> at least the only voiced user seems a bot...
[23:46] <craniumslows> szimmer, it's usually polite to name your bot *bot* somehow
[23:47] <DarthPuff> using apt-get is there a way to completely remove the last apt-get install i did?
[23:47] <craniumslows> Improviz, the CHS values to mean means disk geometry is off from when the partition table was written
[23:47] <craniumslows> *to me
[23:48] <Improviz> Yeah, tried completely wiping and reinstalling again (Karmic 9.10)
[23:48] <Improviz> No luck
[23:48] <mertle> DarthPuff: it should be recorded in the log - via apt idk
[23:48] <craniumslows> Improviz, can you boot to a terminal and use fdisk on it
[23:48] <Nick_Colley> Hey
[23:48] <Improviz> I'm on the machine right now. booted from Live CD
[23:48] <duffydack> Sigiken, for virtualbox all you need is the guest additions installed.. no xorg config.
[23:48] <Nick_Colley> Does anyone know anything about the brightness problem in Samsung NC10s?
[23:49] <Nick_Colley> on ubuntu of course
[23:49] <necromankas> Hello i was wondering if anyone could help me? :)
[23:49] <antonio_> buenas noches
[23:49] <zaxonspox> necromancas just ask
[23:49] <ardchoille> !ask | necromankas
[23:50] <necromankas> I mounted a MicroSD Card and it automatically locks all the content, how to i unlock it?
[23:50] <Nick_Colley> I'll repeat mine on one line
[23:50] <Sigiken> Well, i'll delete everything I have put in, and try if it helps
[23:50] <craniumslows> necromankas, is the readonly tabl clicked over ?
[23:50] <abstrakt> how do i make gimp rescan my fonts folder(s) ?
[23:50] <Nick_Colley> Does anyone know how to fix the brightness problem in samsung NC10s running unbuntu
[23:50] <Nick_Colley> Abstrakt
[23:50] <necromankas> Yes craniumslows.
[23:50] <duffydack> abstrakt, restart it
[23:50] <Nick_Colley> turn it off and on
[23:50] <Nick_Colley> :P
[23:51] <abstrakt> bah, without restarting :?
[23:51] <abstrakt> oh well
[23:51] <Nick_Colley> waIT WAIT
[23:51] <Nick_Colley> wait*
[23:51] <Nick_Colley> I think there is a refresh button
[23:51] <Nick_Colley> Not sure. let me check for you
[23:51] <craniumslows> abstrakt, http://docs.gimp.org/en/gimp-font-dialog.html
[23:51] <doober> Anyone know why I can't update tzdata in Ubuntu Netbook Remix?  Update Manager is failing.
[23:51] <SuperMiguel> is this really that fast? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BootToRAM
[23:52] <craniumslows> you go to the fonts dialog and then click the refresh button at the bottom
[23:52] <Nick_Colley> So the confirm that
[23:52] <karim_frl> i cannot delete file on my remoevd disk
[23:53] <Nick_Colley> yeah that's right
[23:53]  * craniumslows Kung Fu : Powered by Sailor Jerry's spiced rum
[23:53] <Nick_Colley> Anyone know how to fix my brightness problem?
[23:54] <Losha> SuperMiguel: dunno, never spoken to anyone who's actually done it...
[23:54] <necromankas> Okay, 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] <craniumslows> Improviz, 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 ?
[23:55] <Improviz> craniumslows-how's that work?
[23:56] <zaxonspox> necromankas did youn mount manually?
[23:56] <necromankas> Yeah
[23:56] <craniumslows> Improviz, 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 time
[23:56] <necromankas> It isn't detected when i try to mount it via the terminal
[23:56] <Sigiken> It 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] <Losha> szimmer: there is ubottu, and various floodbots, and that's it, I think...
[23:56] <zaxonspox> necromankas mayby try with rw option in mount?
[23:56] <mertle> necromankas: tried to chmod +w the folder?
[23:57] <necromankas> zaxonspox - I'm a ubuntu newbie :)
[23:57] <necromankas> How would i do that?
[23:57] <craniumslows> necromankas, when you call mount from term you throw out the -w flag for read/write synonym for -o rw
[23:58] <ACKT1C> hi
[23:58] <craniumslows> necromankas, did your device format the card or did you do it in windows etc?
[23:58] <akeel> Question: Does anybody know how to replace characters in txt file using c?
[23:58] <necromankas> It was done in windows
[23:58] <Sigiken> odd that this has fixed it, because before I have modified the xorg.conf it was empty and it didn't work then
[23:58] <vegar_> you're kidding?
[23:58] <ACKT1C> edit
[23:58] <craniumslows> akeel, you might check a programming channel (fyi you'd read in the file char by char and work on it that way usually)
[23:59] <Improviz> craniumslows-so, during install, what should I tell Ubunto to do to get diff sectors, etc.?
[23:59] <ardchoille> ACKT1C: do you have an ubuntu support question?
[23:59] <ACKT1C> where are the ops
[23:59] <szimmer> there are no ops ;)
[23:59] <jsemar> was i just invisible? (did the last thing i asked come up in chat? i hadn't identified with Nickerv yet)
[23:59] <szimmer> anarchy
