| cane | hello | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| cane | is there a ubuntu server irc? | 00:00 |
| ActionParsnip | cane: #ubuntu-server | 00:00 |
| Flannel | cane: This channel is appropriate, and there's also #ubuntu-server | 00:00 |
| r00ster | dugger5688: okay I will see | 00:00 |
| cane | ActionParsnip, I tried that already-LOL | 00:00 |
| Armageddon | greezmunkey, still same thing | 00:00 |
| r00ster | dugger5688: it does seem like some weird permission issue | 00:00 |
| cane | ActionParsnip, it works now. | 00:01 |
| keepon | Hi, I need help setting up a external monitor in Ubuntu 9.10 .. is there anyone that can help me out? | 00:01 |
| nmoureyii | Also, Is the 10.04 release stable enough that I can install it now and not have to do the upgrade later? | 00:01 |
| mrb | I have a Skystar 2 TV PCI card and i am in Syria i want to try to scan for channels and couldn't find any file of my are in /usr/share/dvb/dvb-t | 00:01 |
| CaptainTrek | no nmoureyii. refer to this: | 00:01 |
| ActionParsnip | !10.04 | nmoureyii | 00:01 |
| ubottu | nmoureyii: Lucid Lynx is the codename for Ubuntu 10.04, due April 29th, 2010 - Lucid is NOT released and is NOT stable - Discussion and support only in #ubuntu+1 - Development Schedule: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LucidReleaseSchedule | 00:01 |
| mrb | anyone can help me ?! | 00:01 |
| Brimstones | r00ster, dugger5688: Are you going on SchroomFumes or just botting ? :) | 00:01 |
| greezmunkey | Armageddon: is you wireless adapter removable? pcmcia, or usb?? | 00:02 |
| Armageddon | greezmunkey, no built in ! | 00:02 |
| zebastian | how can i install windows leaving my ubuntu installation untouched, all the pages i see for dual booting involve installing windows first | 00:02 |
| greezmunkey | Armageddon: can you manually turn it on and off | 00:02 |
| Armageddon | greezmunkey, yes but I don't think Ubuntu sees that | 00:02 |
| greezmunkey | ? | 00:02 |
| ActionParsnip | mrb: run: lspci one line will identify the device, the make and model is fairly moot, you need to know the chip used. You can then find guides | 00:02 |
| mrb | alright | 00:03 |
| r00ster | Brimstones: hehe, so what else can I do? | 00:03 |
| Armageddon | greezmunkey, it means even if I turn it on and off from its button it Ubuntu will keep it on | 00:03 |
| Brimstones | r00ster, dugger5688: Do you have any ideea why the ops dont kick you for talking nonsence ? | 00:03 |
| Brimstones | r00ster, dugger5688: I just farted :P | 00:03 |
| gdewald | Hi | 00:03 |
| CaptainTrek | Brimstones: not appropriate here | 00:03 |
| greezmunkey | Armageddon: in a terminal: tail -f /var/log/syslog, then cycle your wireless, paste what you get. | 00:03 |
| nmoureyii | Bye. | 00:03 |
| greezmunkey | Armageddon: ah, ok - what does NM do? | 00:04 |
| Brimstones | r00ster, dugger5688, CaptainTrek: I just farted :P | 00:04 |
| dugger5688 | r00ster, what was the output? | 00:04 |
| Armageddon | greezmunkey, usually its on all the time | 00:04 |
| mrb | Techsan Electronics Co Ltd B2C2 FlexCopII DVB chip / Technisat SkyStar2 DVB card (rev 02) |||| thats the chip But i can't find the frequencies file for my country ! | 00:04 |
| CaptainTrek | Brimstones: i'm serious. Inappropriate in here. | 00:04 |
| gdewald | Anyone know if there is a way to get Windows 7 - like functionality with window manipulation?(full screen if you move the window to the top and half screen when you move it to the side)? | 00:04 |
| greezmunkey | Armageddon: does it sit there and spin, or just give up? | 00:04 |
| r00ster | Brimstones: so you can't help me... | 00:04 |
| Armageddon | greezmunkey, it still says network not managed, and now it sits there | 00:05 |
| slckb0y | hi everyone :) is someone running KDE in a virtualbox under win7 ? :) i can't seem to use OpenGL for desktop effect even if i installed guest additions :/ | 00:05 |
| Brimstones | CaptainTrek: Im very young. Arent we allowed to be here in this channel ? | 00:05 |
| Brimstones | CaptainTrek: Im 9 years old, just learning C. | 00:05 |
| ActionParsnip | slckb0y: ou wont get 3D accel in vbox | 00:05 |
| greezmunkey | Armageddon: did you restart networking as I posted before? | 00:05 |
| CaptainTrek | Brimstones: yes, but this isnt a chatroom like instant messenger. this is a support channel for Ubuntu | 00:05 |
| r00ster | dugger5688: I am not too sure that will help | 00:05 |
| Armageddon | yes | 00:05 |
| slckb0y | i do under compiz and games :/ | 00:05 |
| Brimstones | CaptainTrek: Chatroom ? | 00:05 |
| ActionParsnip | slckb0y: you can get a good res using the vbox driver but thats it | 00:05 |
| rapha | funny, funny ... so mkfs.vfat /dev/sdb2 worked on the iPod, and it's now officially empty, but you still can't write to it. | 00:05 |
| CaptainTrek | i'll let the ops take over, i'm off to get coffee | 00:06 |
| SeaPhor | ActionParsnip, whats the link to see how OPs are best presented.. how they're to act? | 00:06 |
| Brimstones | CaptainTrek: Is there room for a chats ? | 00:06 |
| TomG | gdewald: That is in kde4. | 00:06 |
| greezmunkey | Armageddon: Try restarting NM then. | 00:06 |
| ActionParsnip | SeaPhor: !ops will call them | 00:06 |
| Armageddon | greezmunkey, how ? | 00:06 |
| coachj | is there a way to move File Edit View History Bookmarks Tools Help from under XXXXXX-Mozilla Firefox to beside it? | 00:06 |
| ActionParsnip | SeaPhor: is that what you mean? | 00:06 |
| gdewald | so no way to do it in gnome? | 00:06 |
| dugger5688 | r00ster, that command doesn't 'do' anything, it just lists permissions. | 00:07 |
| r00ster | i know | 00:07 |
| clarkb | gdewald: there was a compiz extension that did it with key bindings | 00:07 |
| r00ster | but but I don't think messing with the permissions will help | 00:07 |
| r00ster | but I will try again I guess | 00:07 |
| clarkb | and any tiling wm will do it | 00:07 |
| TomG | gdewald: I only know of it in KDE | 00:08 |
| r00ster | it starts with a ew | 00:08 |
| Kaapa | Hey there. I have ubuntu on my eee pc. Everything is working perfect except for the wifi card. When I start the pc I need to rmmod ath9k / modprobe ath9k in order to have network. Anything I can do to automate this? | 00:08 |
| Armageddon | greezmunkey, how do I restart nm-applet ? | 00:08 |
| r00ster | it starts with a rw* | 00:08 |
| gdewald | awww... | 00:08 |
| r00ster | so there is a read and write access | 00:08 |
| greezmunkey | Armageddon: that depends a lot on your install, just restart for now. | 00:08 |
| Armageddon | greezmunkey, ok then | 00:08 |
| Brimstones | Mr Trekk: I hope i havnt been bad to your? channel... | 00:08 |
| SeaPhor | ActionParsnip, not needed, what i'm asking is the "OPs and being OP'd, there is a article saying how OPs should present themselves,,, | 00:08 |
| ActionParsnip | Kaapa: make a startup script and put it in /etc/rc.local to do what you do manually and put a small pause in between | 00:09 |
| dugger5688 | r00ster: did you try changing your session to failsafe gnome? | 00:09 |
| greezmunkey | Armageddon: I hate to say that, but the ../../networking restart should have done it for you... | 00:09 |
| Kaapa | ActionParsnip: trying that | 00:09 |
| edomeda | what is the name of the old "add/remove software" package? | 00:09 |
| ActionParsnip | edomeda: synptic | 00:09 |
| gdewald | is there a way to completely change over to kubuntu from ubuntu without reinstalling everything?(I don't mean integrating KDE into ubuntu, bc I don't want gnome's applications in KDE) | 00:09 |
| === nightfrog is now known as Perlfection | ||
| Flannel | !purekde | gdewald | 00:10 |
| ubottu | gdewald: If you want to remove all !Gnome packages and have a default !Kubuntu system follow the instructions here « https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PureKDE » | 00:10 |
| clarkb | you can just install kde and gnome side by side | 00:10 |
| gdewald | thanks | 00:10 |
| edomeda | ActionParsnip, not that one, the one from 8.04 that said "add remove software..." | 00:11 |
| Kaapa | ActionParsnip: didn't work - apparently it's something that goes wrong after user logs in | 00:11 |
| SeaPhor | Flannel, do you know of the link to the Freenode article on how OPs are to present themselves? | 00:11 |
| Brimstones | r00ster: If you had done what i said yould be done by now, Switch to terminal login from GDM (GNoME Display Manager) (CTRL+ALT+F1) edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf ... change driver "nvidia" to driver "nv" ... Itll suck speedwise but itll not make X crash. | 00:12 |
| Brimstones | PS: I make better oses then Ubuntu or microsoft combined (Sorry, its just the truth) | 00:13 |
| ActionParsnip | edomeda: i dont know any other, ive always used apt-get | 00:13 |
| ActionParsnip | Brimstones: its also offtopic here | 00:13 |
| Brimstones | Sorry | 00:13 |
| edomeda | ActionParsnip, I do for individual packages, but it was very handy for doing several packages at once. I guess synaptic one will work, but I liked the old one. :-/ | 00:14 |
| ActionParsnip | edomeda: theres software centre too, you can install multiple packages with apt-get: sudo apt-get install package1 package2 package3 | 00:15 |
| edomeda | ActionParsnip, sure, if you know the package names for everything. :) Don't care to apt-cache search xyz for things first. the new (9.10+) software center only seems to do one at a time unless I'm missing something | 00:16 |
| Kaapa | one more thing - hibernate doesn't work on my pc; I'm not familiar with grub. Where do I need to tell where my swap partition is? | 00:17 |
| jasmuz | Does anyone have a good grasp on TV Tuner Cards? | 00:17 |
| ActionParsnip | edomeda: no idea, i dont use it :) | 00:17 |
| Armageddon | greezmunkey | 00:17 |
| Brimstones | So, after the Island Outburst of Sulphuric Acid (Car battery Acid fumes, ECMO lung-syndromes etc) Will the Big bang volcano DESTROY our summer in Europe (PS: Evil commies) | 00:17 |
| jasmuz | Brimstones, hey.. i have to talk to you about the tuner card | 00:18 |
| Brimstones | jasmuz. You have all the knowhow you need to make it work | 00:18 |
| ActionParsnip | Brimstones: thats also offtopic here | 00:18 |
| Brimstones | jasmuz. Sure | 00:19 |
| jasmuz | Brimstones, something strange happened.. I ran with card=1, and it made tvtime scan.. it found channels, now it won't do jack and i placed card=1 as the default one. | 00:19 |
| Brimstones | ActionParsnip: But it can be good if thousands of people doesnt die, maybe ? | 00:19 |
| ActionParsnip | Brimstones: its not ubuntu related so is offtopic here | 00:20 |
| greezmunkey | Armageddon: 'sup, any luck? | 00:20 |
| duffydack | !webcam > duffydack | 00:21 |
| ubottu | duffydack, please see my private message | 00:21 |
| Brimstones | ActionParsnip: But you appreciate the fact that ive potentially just helped about atleast 2000 people by word of mouth and interwebs perhaps ? | 00:23 |
| ActionParsnip | Brimstones: maybe so yes, i have done similar (check top contributors on launchpad ;)) | 00:23 |
| ActionParsnip | Brimstones: what's your point? | 00:24 |
| cornkid | howdy peeps | 00:24 |
| ActionParsnip | !hi | cornkid | 00:24 |
| ubottu | cornkid: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines . Enjoy your stay! | 00:24 |

| ActionParsnip | Brimstones: i'm from the UK dude | 00:26 |
| Brimstones | http://news.bbc.co.uk | 00:26 |
| Barnabas | Brimstones, does the volcano run ubuntu ? | 00:26 |
| Brimstones | Yeah! :) | 00:26 |
| gdewald | FFFFFFUUUUUUUU | 00:26 |
| codygman | for some reason hibernate and standby stopped working | 00:26 |
| codygman | it won't come out of standby that is | 00:27 |
| ActionParsnip | Brimstones: the ash clous is not an ubuntu support question so is offtopic here | 00:27 |
| codygman | either that or it won't go into | 00:27 |
| Barnabas | codygman, did you mess around with the bios | 00:27 |
| codygman | Barnabas: no | 00:27 |
| gdewald | All my ubuntu programs are still here... | 00:27 |
| gdewald | >.< | 00:27 |
| codygman | the only thing that changed was my gnome theme | 00:27 |
| codygman | and some updates | 00:27 |
| h3ll0 | umount: /media/KINGSTON is not in the fstab (and you are not root) | 00:27 |
| h3ll0 | wtf? | 00:27 |
| greezmunkey | I was 18 miles away from Mt.St.Helens when it went off, just a burp...computers kept running. | 00:27 |
| Barnabas | codygman, in synaptic you have the possibility to roll back updates | 00:27 |
| ActionParsnip | h3ll0: try using sudo at the start of the command | 00:27 |
| codygman | Barnabas: checking now | 00:28 |
| Brimstones | ActionParsnip: I see. Atleast mr h3ll0 has a great usb-stick | 00:28 |
| h3ll0 | and it's not detecting the pen drive like before | 00:28 |
| Barnabas | try that if that fixes the problem you know | 00:28 |
| Barnabas | well you know where to start to look | 00:28 |
| h3ll0 | Brimstones, dont blame my usb blame ubuntu | 00:28 |
| ActionParsnip | Brimstones: if it stores stuff i guess its as good as any | 00:28 |
| h3ll0 | it's a fucking bug-- | 00:28 |
| daftykins | language please. | 00:28 |
| ActionParsnip | !language |h3l | 00:28 |
| ubottu | h3l: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. | 00:28 |
| h3ll0 | :) | 00:29 |
| Brimstones | I blame everyone and no0ne! :) | 00:29 |
| codygman | Barnabas: i'm not seeing an option to roll back | 00:29 |
| Barnabas | h3ll0, why is it a bug? mounting file systems is generally a job for root or operator group | 00:29 |
| gdewald | oh, found a way to remove everything gnome relatyed | 00:29 |
| guest | Hello , everyone I am new to ubuntu | 00:29 |
| guest | System is running perfectly | 00:29 |
| h3ll0 | Barnabas, it was working before so.. | 00:29 |
| ActionParsnip | h3ll0: is the device still attached to the system? | 00:30 |
| h3ll0 | yes | 00:30 |
| guest | The only problem I'm facing is that now the computer does not have any wireless access | 00:30 |
| ActionParsnip | h3ll0: you could try using: sudo eject on the device in /dev | 00:30 |
| h3ll0 | i can unmounted via gparted | 00:30 |
| Brimstones | Same old, same old... pack a good Co2-punch :) | 00:31 |
| ActionParsnip | guest: what is the output of: sudo lshw -C network use http://pastebin.com to give the output | 00:31 |
| Barnabas | codygman, try to look under history in the file tab in synaptic | 00:32 |
| Barnabas | you actually cannot roll them back directly from synaptic - you are right | 00:32 |
| h3ll0 | it's not detecting usb anymore | 00:32 |
| gdewald | is openoffice part of both ubuntu and kubuntu? | 00:32 |
| h3ll0 | pen drive | 00:32 |
| h3ll0 | very odd | 00:32 |
| Barnabas | but you will get a list of things having happened since a given date | 00:32 |
| r00ster | What is the problem if Gnome can't open the .profile when when logging in? | 00:33 |
| ActionParsnip | h3ll0: then rmmod the usb_storage module and modprobe it | 00:33 |
| Barnabas | so you will know what packages have been updated | 00:33 |
| ActionParsnip | gdewald: i believe so | 00:33 |
| ActionParsnip | r00ster: permissions possibly | 00:33 |
| h3ll0 | ur talking chinese :P | 00:33 |
| Barnabas | h3ll0, when you "unplug" your kingston device, do you umount it first? | 00:33 |
| Barnabas | very important | 00:34 |
| Barnabas | on all file systems | 00:34 |
| ActionParsnip | h3ll0: the usb flash access etc access is controlled via the usb_storage module, if you remove it then reload it then its functionality should be restored | 00:34 |
| h3ll0 | it doesnt show up like before | 00:34 |
| LucidGuy | Loosing my mind simply trying to create an additional software raid md volume using two new drives. Day 2 many hours no luck. Details: http://paste.ubuntu.com/417705/ Please someone ease my pain! | 00:34 |
| r00ster | ActionParsnip: the permissions are -rw-r--r-- | 00:34 |
| r00ster | and I mean | 00:34 |
| h3ll0 | but disk utility detects it | 00:34 |
| r00ster | I didn't change anything | 00:34 |
| Barnabas | h3ll0, ergo the system cannot detect the file system on the device | 00:35 |
| r00ster | how can permissions just change like that? | 00:35 |
| h3ll0 | it's ntfs like bfore | 00:35 |
| CaptainTrek | r00ster: same reason that the permissions for my home folder on netbookremix were root-edit only | 00:35 |
| Barnabas | h3ll0, unless it is corrupted | 00:35 |
| Barnabas | somehow | 00:35 |

| h3ll0 | it's not detecting pen drive correctly. | 00:37 |
| Brimstones | greezmunkey: Perhaps youve gone blind ? | 00:37 |
| Barnabas | h3ll0, could you try to remove and insert the usb drive and check dmesg | 00:37 |
| Brimstones | greezmunkey: Its always a "Dont do that..." | 00:37 |
| Barnabas | use pastebin | 00:37 |
| guest | http://pastebin.com/BgmF64Ug | 00:37 |
| r00ster | CaptainTrek: They didn't | 00:37 |
| gdewald | hmm... | 00:37 |
| Barnabas | just to see the system reaction | 00:37 |
| h3ll0 | i ejected it | 00:37 |
| h3ll0 | and removed | 00:37 |
| Barnabas | ok do you know dmesg | 00:38 |
| h3ll0 | no | 00:38 |
| h3ll0 | i typed it in terminal | 00:38 |
| Barnabas | dmesg is a utility to write out system information about different things one is information about devices removed and added | 00:38 |
| gdewald | so I'm guessing there is no real way to have both KDE and gnome without seeing KDE programs in gnome and vice-versa? | 00:38 |
| Brimstones | TimothyA: Dick | 00:38 |
| === pipegeek1 is now known as pipegeek | ||
| TimothyA | what? | 00:38 |
| greezmunkey | Brimstones: I'm not going to get into that with you, I was just curious if flooding would automatically get you disconnected, that's all. PS I know flooding is unacceptable. :) | 00:38 |
| Barnabas | you can probably find the same info i a GUI tool but I am used to the console :-) | 00:39 |
| TimothyA | what did I ever do to you? :| | 00:39 |
| jasmuz | gdewald: if you MUST, use alacarte to remove from your menu the items you don't want there. | 00:39 |
| trimatrix | absoluetly nothing | 00:39 |
| Barnabas | if you reinsert it it dmesg should write out some info about the device inserted | 00:39 |
| joshdreamland | Is there an easy way to format a flash drive? | 00:39 |
| Brimstones | greezmunkey: I like floodings, but i bet its not considered cool :P | 00:39 |
| gdewald | ;__; | 00:39 |
| joshdreamland | as in, without crossing the arctic ocean. naked. | 00:39 |
| * TimothyA beats Brimstones with a stick | 00:39 | |
| ActionParsnip | joshdreamland: run: gksudo gparted | 00:39 |
| trimatrix | hit the format button on te flash drive? | 00:39 |
| joshdreamland | ActionParsnip: Tried it, got this: | 00:40 |
| Brimstones | joshdreamland: "gparted" ? | 00:40 |
| joshdreamland | /dev/sdg: unrecognised disk label | 00:40 |
| jasmuz | joshdreamland: duh, right click over the usb drive, and there is a format option | 00:40 |
| trimatrix | thats weird....... | 00:40 |
| joshdreamland | jasmuz: Not on this distro.... | 00:40 |
| joshdreamland | or perhaps version. Does Karmic implement one? | 00:40 |
| trimatrix | can't tell you then how..... | 00:40 |
| ActionParsnip | joshdreamland: what is the output of: lsb_release -c | 00:41 |
| jasmuz | joshdreamland: unrecognized disk label, that is an odd error.. go with Gparted | 00:41 |
| joshdreamland | Codename:jaunty | 00:41 |
| joshdreamland | jasmuz: He's the one that generated the error. | 00:41 |
| jasmuz | joshdreamland: yes, karmic does have the built-in format option | 00:41 |
| h3ll0 | this is making me angry | 00:42 |
| joshdreamland | Well, something to look forward to then if I can install it on this flash drive I can't format :D | 00:42 |
| ActionParsnip | joshdreamland: then you can label the partition if you like, humour it | 00:42 |
| ActionParsnip | !label | joshdreamland | 00:42 |
| ubottu | joshdreamland: To rename the labels of your partitions, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RenameUSBDrive. | 00:42 |
| Barnabas | h3ll0, know the feeling, but unless you list the output of dmesg when inserting the device noone will be able to tell if the system found it | 00:42 |
| joshdreamland | haha, okay, I'll try it... | 00:42 |
| ActionParsnip | h3ll0: then you need some help if a usb device gets you angry | 00:43 |
| h3ll0 | ActionParsnip, stfu pls | 00:43 |
| zebastian | hello | 00:43 |
| zebastian | i want to install windows | 00:43 |
| greezmunkey | h3ll0: calm down, it's just a computer - you'll get it figured, ppl are trying to help you as well! It could be a lot worse :) | 00:43 |
| zebastian | without having to do a clean install of ubuntu | 00:43 |
| zebastian | that is leaving my current ubuntu installation untouched | 00:43 |
| zebastian | for dual booting | 00:44 |
| zebastian | how can i go about this? | 00:44 |
| Barnabas | zebastian, will you need a physical system or can you do with a virtual pc | 00:44 |
| Barnabas | that is emulation of hw and a windows on top | 00:44 |
| zebastian | Barnabas: what do you mean a physical system? | 00:44 |
| zebastian | i am on a laptop that already uses ubuntu hardy | 00:45 |
| owen1 | can i connect with rdesktop from ubuntu to ubuntu? | 00:45 |
| jasmuz | zebastian: You would have to resize your partitions in order to install Windows, and afterwards run a live disc to reinstall GRUB (physical way) | 00:45 |
| Barnabas | a system running of a physical partition | 00:45 |
| zebastian | i want to install windows without deleting any hardy | 00:45 |
| Barnabas | zebastian, dual boot | 00:45 |
| ActionParsnip | zebastian: boot to livecd and resize your partitions to make some unpartitioned space to install windows to | 00:45 |
| zebastian | ok, is there a tutorial you can point me towards | 00:45 |
| Barnabas | zebastian, what will you need the windows system for :-) | 00:45 |
| zebastian | to do this, so i will need a grub boot cd | 00:45 |
| Barnabas | zebastian, gaming? | 00:46 |
| owen1 | what do i need to configure on the server to allow rdesktop? | 00:46 |
| jasmuz | owen1: rdesktop os for windows machines | 00:46 |
| ActionParsnip | zebastian: you should backup your data incase of catastrophe and you will need to reinstall grub to the mbr as the xp install wil overwrite grub | 00:46 |
| zebastian | certain language learning apps | 00:46 |
| jasmuz | owen1: Ubuntu--->Windows | 00:46 |
| owen1 | jasmuz: got it. what if my server is ubuntu? | 00:46 |
| Barnabas | zebastian, if you only need for "regular" windows apps there is no reason to reinstall it physically | 00:46 |
| h3ll0 | im thinking of formatting install xp (first) and then install ubuntu as primary but these bugs are annyoing and delaying me | 00:47 |
| zebastian | so basically, i back up, burn a cd of grub, make a new empty space partition, and then stick the windows install cd, i install it then i stick the grub cd? | 00:47 |
| Brimstones | I feel ashamed of my brain because I feel that people moving into the US, Europe are stealing what would have been my job or jobs. I know that the immigrants are troubled and perhaps war-ridden, but please tell me why i should accept that my life is total crap because they decided to immigrate to my country ? | 00:47 |
| Barnabas | zebastian, I would look into Sun VirtualBox | 00:47 |
| Barnabas | you will be able to run windows under linux and execute the software you need | 00:47 |
| zebastian | is there a tutorial where you can point me to do this | 00:47 |
| jasmuz | owen1: if you want to connect remotely to your server you can do it via ssh, or graphical system, via X | 00:48 |
| Kaapa | hey again. where can I put a script that will be executed when user logs in? | 00:48 |
| zebastian | i have never done this before, so i back up files, create new partition, stick windows in that partition, use a grub cd and then what? | 00:48 |
| Barnabas | zebastian, http://www.howtoforge.com/installing-virtualbox-3.0-on-an-ubuntu-9.04-desktop | 00:48 |
| owen1 | jasmuz: i use ssh, but sometimes i want to control the UI. what app will let me do ubuntu->ubuntu with UI? | 00:48 |
| ActionParsnip | Brimstones: will you please keep ontopic, the ops can tell you more if you'd like | 00:49 |
| zebastian | Barnabas: i dont want that, ive already used wine to no avail | 00:49 |
| zebastian | and i am on a laptop | 00:49 |
| owen1 | jasmuz: maybe ssh -XC ? | 00:49 |
| ActionParsnip | Barnabas: not if the windows install is for gaming | 00:49 |
| dugger5688 | zebastion: you're going to probably make a "file" that is the hard drive for your guest OS. | 00:49 |
| Brimstones | ActionParsnip: Yes, no | 00:49 |
| Barnabas | ActionParsnip, agree | 00:49 |
| Barnabas | but it wasnt | 00:49 |
| Kaapa | a1mutt | 00:49 |
| Barnabas | zebastian, wine != sun virtual box | 00:49 |
| ActionParsnip | Brimstones: ash clouds and immigration are offtopic here, i have asked you nicely. i will call the ops next time | 00:50 |
| Barnabas | wine is an emulation of windows api under linux | 00:50 |
| jasmuz | owen1: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=347163 | 00:50 |
| Kaapa | missed a ctr key there :S | 00:50 |
| Barnabas | sun virtualbox is a hw emulation software pkg | 00:50 |
| h3ll0 | linux sucks for gaming that's for sure | 00:50 |
| dugger5688 | but it is nice to keep on a separate volume so you don't bottleneck with your HDD | 00:50 |
| Barnabas | h3ll0, because games are written for directx | 00:50 |
| Brimstones | ActionParsnip: Call Ananke, that one hell of a useless op :P /Point taken though, im trying to be nice you know | 00:50 |
| h3ll0 | y | 00:50 |
| h3ll0 | yes | 00:50 |
| ActionParsnip | h3ll0: plays half-life2, fretsonfire and penumbra overture pretty sweet here | 00:50 |
| ActionParsnip | h3ll0: world of warcraft also plays excellently as well as doom2 performing better than the windows version | 00:51 |
| h3ll0 | go play cs 1.6 | 00:51 |
| ActionParsnip | !games | h3ll0 | 00:51 |
| ubottu | h3ll0: Information about games on Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Games and http://www.icculus.org/lgfaq/gamelist.php | 00:51 |
| owen1 | jasmuz: thanks | 00:51 |
| Barnabas | ActionParsnip, all opengl games will cross compile (almost) | 00:51 |
| h3ll0 | and no steam for linux | 00:52 |
| ActionParsnip | h3ll0: another great game as well as urbanterror which runs great | 00:52 |
| jasmuz | owen1: you're welcomed. | 00:52 |
| h3ll0 | it's all about money | 00:52 |
| joshdreamland | Wine Is Not an Emulator. >=[ | 00:52 |

| cambazz | hello, is it possible to upgrade from 8.10 to latest, and if so how | 00:52 |
| Barnabas | zebastian, did you get the answer you needed? | 00:53 |
| ActionParsnip | !upgrade | cambazz | 00:53 |
| ubottu | cambazz: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading | 00:53 |
| ActionParsnip | cambazz: you must upgrade to the next release in turn, you cannot leapfrog | 00:53 |
| Barnabas | well windows is fine for bootstrapping my games | 00:53 |
| zebastian | Barnabas: Not really | 00:53 |
| Barnabas | nothing much else | 00:53 |
| Barnabas | zebastian, do you know vmware for windows? | 00:53 |
| cambazz | ActionParsnip: so from 8.10 to 9.10 how many leaps i need | 00:53 |
| zebastian | i need step by step post hardy windows dual bt install | 00:54 |
| joshyfluff | Can anyone tell me how to get the login/logout plugin working on compiz? | 00:54 |
| ActionParsnip | cambazz: 8.10 -> 9.04 then 9.04 -> 9.10 | 00:54 |
| Barnabas | zebastian, I doubt a dual boot will be necessary if you only want to run "regular" windows | 00:54 |
| Barnabas | that is no gaming | 00:54 |
| ActionParsnip | joshyfluff: i'd ask in #compiz | 00:54 |
| jasmuz | joshyfluff: good question.. lol | 00:54 |
| joshyfluff | Aah, ok | 00:54 |
| cambazz | auch | 00:54 |
| zebastian | Barnabas: not regular windows programs | 00:54 |
| jasmuz | joshyfluff: if you find out, tell me how. | 00:55 |
| zebastian | more like encyclopedias and language programs written for windows | 00:55 |
| Barnabas | zebastian, gaming then? | 00:55 |
| joshyfluff | Also, the GNOME panels are loading a lot slower than anything else, for example... On login, first the icons appear, then a few seconds later the panels appear | 00:55 |

| Barnabas | zebastian, a virtual pc under linux will be able to boot a windows system from scratch | 00:56 |

| Barnabas | zebastian, how much mem | 00:57 |
| zebastian | i need it to run right | 00:57 |
| zebastian | 1gb | 00:57 |
| Brimstones | ActionParsnip: You also keep what i call the real, human guidelines. Not many do, youre very special. Keep up the good work! | 00:57 |
| Barnabas | zebastian, ok, thats on the low side I agree | 00:57 |

| tj__ | i have ubuntu server installed, and i have installed no packages | 00:59 |
| LucidGuy | problem fixed .. | 01:00 |
| shadewind | anyone running Linux on a Mac who can give me their output of "sensors"? | 01:00 |
| Flannel | tj__: Do you have an example of a package it thinks it has that it doesn't? | 01:00 |
| TomG | tj__: Does it really think it has something it doesn't, or are you running 64 bit needing 32 bit libraries? | 01:00 |
| Barnabas | zebastian, I'm afraid it will be a bit technical, since you a poking around with disk partitions, boot sectors and file systems | 01:00 |
| tj__ | it attempts to install all of the packages needed for X | 01:00 |
| Barnabas | unless you have a spare disk? | 01:01 |
| Brimstones | tj__: clear ? | 01:01 |
| ActionParsnip | tj__: sudo apt-get -f install may help | 01:01 |
| zebastian | Barnabas: spare disk? | 01:01 |
| tj__ | -f attempts to install X and all 700MB that go with it | 01:01 |
| Barnabas | zebastian, a second hard drive in your pc, that can be used for linux | 01:02 |
| ActionParsnip | tj__: then you have installed an X based app and the system wants to satisfy the dep | 01:03 |

| karpus | hello, if I install the 10.04 RC that is released on thursday, can I just update to "retail" when it's released? I know that a format is recommended when you install a new version since upgrading isn't always working, but is there no such problems when going from rc to retail? | 01:03 |
| zebastian | Barnabas: nope but i have a backup external drive | 01:03 |
| ActionParsnip | !lucid | karpus | 01:03 |
| ubottu | karpus: Lucid Lynx is the codename for Ubuntu 10.04, due April 29th, 2010 - Lucid is NOT released and is NOT stable - Discussion and support only in #ubuntu+1 - Development Schedule: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LucidReleaseSchedule | 01:03 |
| tj__ | and I am unable to, since apt-get throws errors about unmet dependencies | 01:03 |
| Barnabas | zebastian, if it is your backup dont mess around with it | 01:03 |
| Flannel | karpus: Correct, but #ubuntu+1 is the place to ask until it's released | 01:04 |
| zebastian | ok | 01:04 |
| zebastian | so apparently i have to burn a cd of this thing called grub | 01:04 |

Im not having any of these issues on xp using foxit reader. any help would be appreciated | 01:04 |
| Barnabas | zebastian, what you have to do is to create a second partion on your existing hard drive | 01:04 |
| Barnabas | or | 01:05 |
| Barnabas | add another hard drive | 01:05 |
| zebastian | Barnabas: ok, how do i do that? | 01:05 |
| pure_hate | Brimstones, Is that supposed to be some sort of lame joke? | 01:05 |
| zebastian | Barnabas: how do i create a new partition? | 01:05 |
| tj__ | is there an option to ignore the unmet dependencies of packages in apt-get and continue execution of its command? | 01:05 |
| Brimstones | pure_hate: Im serious. | 01:05 |
| Barnabas | zebastian, how much available space do you have on the harddrive you have? | 01:05 |
| zebastian | 35-40 gb | 01:06 |
| Barnabas | zebastian, and the total size? | 01:06 |
| pure_hate | Brimstones, I have no clue who you are so I am not sure why you are even talking to me but to answer your question, no thanks I am fine. | 01:06 |
| Brimstones | pure_hate: I always try to help as best i can. | 01:06 |
| zebastian | Barnabas: how do i check that | 01:07 |
| Barnabas | zebastian, hmm thats a windows question - just a minue (anyone feel free) | 01:07 |
| Brimstones | pure_hate: Ok, but i believe no man is absolutely fine, to that absolute extent :) | 01:07 |
| zebastian | Barnabas: i am on ubuntu hardy, how do i check the hard drive size | 01:08 |
| zebastian | i think its total around 160 gb | 01:08 |
| pure_hate | Brimstones, Not to be arogant but I am pretty sure I dont need your help, thanks for asking though | 01:08 |
| Barnabas | zebastian, ok I understood you had a windows system on a whole disk (partition) and wanted a second partition on which to run linux (ubuntu) | 01:09 |
| Barnabas | am I misunderstood | 01:09 |
| Brimstones | pure_hate: Agreed, be well. | 01:09 |
| Monotoko | wow that was harsh.... | 01:09 |

| Monotoko | Brimstones, aye quite true | 01:13 |

| Barnabas | on a second one | 01:13 |

| Rigorm0rtis | Hello, I am having trouble working with ecryptfs. Basically, a friend's hard drive failed, and I was able to recover most (the vast majority) of the data. I now have all of the relevant ecryptfs files from his machine. I am trying to mount his encrypted directory (I have his password) but I am unsure of the settings I need to use. This ecryptfs setup was created by the Ubuntu installer.... | 01:24 |
| Rigorm0rtis | ...Basically, I need to know what settings the Ubuntu installer uses for ecryptfs. Anyone have any ideas? | 01:24 |
| Barnabas | a cp will suffice | 01:24 |
| harjot | yup | 01:24 |
| zebastian | so, Barnabas, after i backup what do i do? make a ntsf partition? then i stick the install windows cd on boot up and then what? i need a grub cd right? | 01:24 |
| Thorax | TomG: "Hulu Desktop could not locate the Flash plugin. If you already have it installed, please modify ~/.huludesktop with the correct location of libflashplayer.so" | 01:24 |
| Brimstones | TomG: Fork the spoon, Yellow belly once in a black moon. | 01:24 |
| Barnabas | zebastian, you need to: | 01:24 |
| zebastian | harjot: i am planning to install windows 7 | 01:24 |
| Thorax | TomG: and I do have it installed and working | 01:24 |
| glick | ? | 01:24 |
| harjot | zebastian: what you do then is the normal windos procedere then you need a ubuntu live cd | 01:25 |
| Barnabas | 1) backup your data from /home/<user> | 01:25 |
| Barnabas | 2) create a new file system as stated on the link I pasted | 01:25 |
| harjot | 3) install windows? | 01:25 |
| TomG | Thorax: find /usr/lib -name libflash* | 01:25 |
| Barnabas | by shrinking the existing linux one | 01:25 |
| Barnabas | 3) install windows right ... | 01:25 |
| harjot | 4) use the livecd to configure grub? | 01:25 |
| Barnabas | that will nuke completely your grub (boot strap) manager | 01:26 |
| Barnabas | 4) reinstate grub as your boot manager | 01:26 |
| Thorax | TomG: | 01:26 |

| glick | whats the german ubuntu off topic channel? | 01:26 |
| glick | how do i get there | 01:26 |
| Brimstones | Just the good Ol boys never meanin no harm.... | 01:26 |
| Barnabas | zebastian, http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubuntu/reinstall-ubuntu-grub-bootloader-after-windows-wipes-it-out/ | 01:26 |
| Barnabas | windows WILL nuke grub | 01:26 |
| harjot | zebastian: yeah defintely use that | 01:26 |
| Pelo | glick, try asking the #ubuntu-de ppl | 01:26 |
| Barnabas | just the way it works I am afraid | 01:26 |
| CaptainTrek | where are the networking device names stored? | 01:27 |
| harjot | zebastian: windows is a pain to install and maintain | 01:27 |
| Brimstones | Windows is EVIL like that. | 01:27 |
| zebastian | ok | 01:27 |
| harjot | i agree. | 01:27 |
| Thorax | TomG: sorry, here it is http://paste.ubuntu.com/417876/p://past1 | 01:27 |
| xomp | dtminsk_, try #ubuntu+1 | 01:27 |
| zebastian | so once i reinstall grub | 01:27 |
| zebastian | none of my info will be lost | 01:27 |
| harjot | nope | 01:27 |
| zebastian | and my old settings for ubuntu hardy will be intact | 01:27 |
| zebastian | right? | 01:27 |
| xomp | also, please don't pm me | 01:27 |
| joshdreamland | Can I set a session as persistent after booting? | 01:27 |
| harjot | YeS | 01:27 |
| Brimstones | Maybe mister Bill-gates can fix this evil ? | 01:27 |
| fer1010 | ALGUIEN ABLA ESPAÑOL | 01:27 |
| TomG | Thorax: Right, so you need to modify that config file to point to the libflashplayer.so | 01:27 |
| gingerheadman | hi. my friend just changed the owner of /bin, /boot, /etc, /lib, /media, /mnt, /opt, /root, /sbin, /selinux, /srv, /tmp, /usr and /var from root to his user. are there any problems with this? | 01:27 |
| harjot | zebastian: bootloader settings dont affect your files | 01:28 |
| harjot | zebastian: or settings | 01:28 |
| Brimstones | Love you Mr Thorax! | 01:28 |
| Barnabas | zebastian, in place of the windows boot loader you will see grub | 01:28 |
| Thorax | TomG: I have 3 of them and i tried each one to no avail. One more | 01:28 |
| fer1010 | ALGUIEN ABLA ESPAÑOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL | 01:28 |
| Barnabas | if you follow the howto, under grub there will be a boot windows option | 01:28 |
| Brimstones | SSHh | 01:28 |
| Pelo | !es | fer1010 | 01:28 |
| zebastian | Barnabas: i dont have my ubuntu livecd | 01:28 |
| ubottu | fer1010: En la mayoría de canales de Ubuntu se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español o charlar entra en el canal #ubuntu-es. Escribe "/join #ubuntu-es" (sin comillas) y dale a enter. | 01:28 |
| zebastian | Barnabas: that says stick the livecd in | 01:28 |
| fer1010 | OK | 01:28 |
| Barnabas | zebastian, then you need to make one :-) | 01:29 |
| harjot | zebastian: yeah have you got one from the ubuntu site? | 01:29 |
| Barnabas | all you need is a blank cd media | 01:29 |
| ubuntu | Hello | 01:29 |
| ulises | flash for ubuntu? | 01:29 |
| zebastian | Barnabas: this wont erase any of my current ubuntu settings though will it? does it have to be the same boot cd? i am on hardy so i have to create a live cd for hardy? | 01:29 |
| Pelo | !flash | ulises | 01:30 |
| ubottu | ulises: To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - See also !Restricted and !Gnash | 01:30 |
| Barnabas | zebastian, you backed up your current drive right? | 01:30 |
| harjot | zebastian: Nothing in ubuntu or windows will be affected | 01:30 |
| Barnabas | then no data will be lost | 01:30 |
| TomG | Thorax: Is that Flash 10? | 01:30 |
| harjot | zebastian: unless you format the wrong drive | 01:30 |
| Thorax | TomG: yes | 01:30 |
| ulises | ok | 01:30 |
| zebastian | Barnabas: i backed up the files yes | 01:30 |
| zebastian | but i mean the ubuntu hardy installation itself | 01:30 |
| zebastian | i want it to remain intact | 01:30 |
| Thorax | TomG: also, tried the directories with the player libraries | 01:30 |
| ghysel | hi. how can i find out the type of my mounted drives? | 01:30 |
| harjot | zebastian: it will | 01:30 |
| ulises | jajaja | 01:31 |
| Thorax | TomG: and nothing, still the same error | 01:31 |
| Barnabas | harjot, exactly | 01:31 |
| zebastian | i dont want to have to reinstall ubuntu at all | 01:31 |
| harjot | zebastian: you wont need to | 01:31 |
| ulises | i need macromedia flash 8 | 01:31 |
| Thorax | could it possibly be under lib64? | 01:31 |
| zebastian | so the livecd i have to get is hardy's? since i'm on hardy | 01:31 |
| CaptainTrek | is it possible to change the device names for networking cards? | 01:31 |
| harjot | zebastian: doesnt matter which one | 01:31 |
| Barnabas | zebastian, but if you are making a new one get the latest | 01:32 |
| harjot | zebastian: as long as you do the partitioning it doesnt really matter | 01:32 |
| Barnabas | harjot, agree | 01:32 |
| TomG | Thorax: I'm not sure about it. I haven't tried Hulu desktop before. | 01:32 |
| zebastian | Barnabas: what do you mean get the latest? hardy uses a different grub than the new ubuntus | 01:32 |
| ghysel | anybody? how can i find out the type of my mounted drives? | 01:32 |
| TomG | Thorax: Are normal flash operations working in a web browser? | 01:32 |
| Barnabas | zebastian, grub is not the utility that partions your drive | 01:32 |
| Thorax | TomG: definitely | 01:32 |
| Barnabas | grub is a boot loader | 01:33 |
| harjot | zebastian: but when you run the grub setup for THAT partition it will pick your grub up | 01:33 |
| xomp | I have an external hdd I'm /thinking/ of installing ubuntu too. Can I do this without messing with my current Win7/OSX boot records? Like maybe install ubuntu's bootloader directly to the external? | 01:33 |
| hoctopus | DOES ANYBODY BESIDES ME THINK THAT WITH 1000'S OF APPLICATIONS IN THE UBUNTU SOFTWARE CENTER -DEPARTMENTS REPOSITORIES THAT MAYBE THESE PACKAGES OUGHT TO COME UP SORTED BASED ON POPULARITY OR USEFULNESS INSTEAD OF RANDOM OR ALPHABETICAL LIKE THEY ARE. THE LACK OF SORTING WITH SUCH A LARGE NUMBER OF PACKAGES GIVES A NEW LINUX USER A BAD IMPRESSION WHEN IT TAKES FOREVER TO FIND USEFUL PACKAGES AND THE SEARCH FUNCTION WHILE HELPFU | 01:33 |
| hoctopus | L FALLS QUITE SHORT. SORRY FOR BREAKING IN BUT I DONT KNOW THE BEST PLACE TO SAY THIS.. | 01:33 |
| FloodBot1 | hoctopus: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 01:33 |
| Thorax | TomG: i can watch most of the videos without problems | 01:33 |
| joshdreamland | what is casper? | 01:33 |
| CaptainTrek | !caps | hoctopus | 01:33 |
| ubottu | hoctopus: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too. | 01:33 |
| Barnabas | that is a small program that loads before any os(es) | 01:33 |
| zebastian | Barnabas: i know but i mean here it says run live cd http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubuntu/reinstall-ubuntu-grub-bootloader-after-windows-wipes-it-out/ | 01:33 |
| harjot | zebastian: yeah to partition you must be on a separate drive | 01:33 |
| TomG | Thorax: Out of curiosity, what does the setting look like in the config file? | 01:34 |
| Barnabas | yes that may me for an older version but the info is still valid | 01:34 |
| Thorax | TomG: I appreciate you trying to help out.. I can't see what I'm doing wrong, this doesn't seem to be a problem for anyone | 01:34 |
| Barnabas | older version of ubuntu | 01:34 |
| === tabris|a1ay is now known as tabris|away | ||
| Barnabas | it will still work with the newest one | 01:34 |
| harjot | agreed the instructions will still work | 01:34 |
| zebastian | Barnabas: what i mean is, that thing there assumes i have a livecd, so the livecd i should get is the one fro my version right | 01:34 |
| harjot | zebastian: doesnt matter | 01:34 |
| harjot | zebastian: if you want to be paranoid go ahead :P but doesnt matter | 01:35 |
| * Barnabas is born paranoid | 01:35 | |
| harjot | ha | 01:35 |
| * Barnabas is born a bit crazy | 01:35 | |
| TomG | Thorax: Just downloaded and installed it. Same error. | 01:35 |
| Barnabas | but harjot is correct | 01:35 |
| zebastian | harjot: there it says boot off the livecd, that means i will be putting in those commands from the live cd? | 01:36 |
| harjot | zebastian: all you have to doo is run those commands from thed terminal frmom the livecd | 01:36 |
| Brimstones | As i have been coding for 10 years after i first learnt to code C then GTK+ and a whole bunch of other languages i have concluded that any drug above -> hash is evil and shouldnt exist. Weaker things like Marijuana ive not decided on yet but feel its like beer or booze. 80% Strohrum booze is like Heroin so i think that and industrial booze should be illegal to drink as well. Because those will infact make you blind! :) | 01:36 |
| yacc | hoctopus, well, considering that I haven't yet switched my habits to aptitude, still using apt-get & companions, that does not sound that useful to me. | 01:36 |
| yacc | hoctopus, and it's rude to shout all caps all the time ;) | 01:36 |
| maco | Brimstones: um... think you could stay on topic? this is a support channel | 01:36 |
| maco | Brimstones: also, illegal drugs are offtopic even in our offtopic channels | 01:36 |
| Thorax | TomG: http://paste.ubuntu.com/417906/ | 01:36 |
| zebastian | Barnabas: what sort of partition do i have to make for windows? | 01:37 |
| harjot | zebastian: ntfs | 01:37 |
| Thorax | TomG: see you can find some instructions in the Readme from the package installer | 01:37 |
| harjot | zebastian: or blank | 01:37 |
| Barnabas | zebastian, or blank | 01:37 |
| Barnabas | no file system | 01:37 |
| Brimstones | maco: No, drugs are crap | 01:37 |
| Thorax | TomG: which somewhat describes what to do | 01:37 |
| zebastian | harjot: but do ihave to assign it a name? | 01:37 |
| Barnabas | windows will format under installation | 01:37 |
| zebastian | or just create empty space? | 01:37 |
| harjot | zebastian: not really | 01:37 |
| harjot | exactly | 01:37 |
| maco | Brimstones: still offtopic for ubuntu channels | 01:37 |
| zebastian | so i just create empty space? | 01:38 |
| Thorax | TomG: but does not fix the problem, for me at least | 01:38 |
| harjot | zebastian: yes | 01:38 |
| xomp | I have an external hdd I'm /thinking/ of installing ubuntu too. Can I do this without messing with my current Win7/OSX boot records? Like maybe install ubuntu's bootloader directly to the external? | 01:38 |
| Barnabas | zebastian, does not really matter | 01:38 |
| harjot | zebastian: what barnabas said | 01:38 |
| harjot | zebastian: winddows will do its stuff later | 01:38 |
| Brimstones | maco: Show me how much you love drugs by getting me kicked then :) | 01:38 |
| Barnabas | and nuke your grub installation .... | 01:38 |
| Barnabas | they really ought to stop doing taht | 01:38 |
| Barnabas | that | 01:38 |
| harjot | zebastian: but if you want a slightly slightly quicker installation for windows then format it as ntfs now | 01:38 |
| TomG | Thorax: Let me see if I can get it working here. | 01:38 |
| maco | Brimstones: i'm asking you to keep on topic. that means either asking or answering ubuntu support questions | 01:39 |
| Thorax | TomG: Ok | 01:39 |
| === maurice is now known as tottto-drummond | ||
| zebastian | i ask because i dont get this Note that you should also verify that hd0,0 is the correct location for Windows. If you had installed Windows on the 4th partition on the drive, then you should change it to (hd0,3) | 01:39 |
| harjot | Barnabas: microsoft just want their things everywhere | 01:39 |
| Barnabas | well at least they could ask ... | 01:39 |
| Barnabas | "do you want to nuke your boot sector" | 01:39 |
| harjot | i know | 01:40 |
| gingerheadman | xomp: I know that if you already have Windows installed and you install ubuntu it will work perfectly and you will still be able to access Windows if you need to. Can't say anything about Mac OS X because I've never tried it. | 01:40 |
| harjot | they think the whole world uses windows | 01:40 |
| harjot | zebastian: where are the instructions? | 01:40 |
| zebastian | harjot: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubuntu/reinstall-ubuntu-grub-bootloader-after-windows-wipes-it-out/ | 01:40 |
| * Barnabas on lavatory | 01:40 | |

| xomp | gingerheadman, cheers | 01:41 |
| gingerheadman | xomp, np | 01:41 |
| harjot | zebastian: all you do is do what it says i doubt you have another partiton | 01:41 |
| zebastian | well | 01:41 |
| zebastian | by default i will have another partition | 01:42 |
| harjot | zebastian: hd0,0 is the one you installed ubuntu on | 01:42 |
| zebastian | since i will keep this ubuntu install im on | 01:42 |
| harjot | zebastian: the first partition is ubuntu ? | 01:42 |
| harjot | zebastian: if so | 01:42 |

| harjot | zebastian: then follow exactly what it says | 01:42 |
| TomG | Thorax: Ok. You need the full path to the libflashplayer.so, with a preceding npwrapper. | 01:42 |
| rfm | I swapped a new disk into my (root) md raid1 array a while ago, and just noticed I forgot to set up the boot sector. I thought all I had to do was run grub from the running system, then root (hd0,1) and setup (hd1), but grub doesn't think I have any disks at all (hittlng tab after "root (" shows nothing, "find /boot/grub/stage1" similary nothing. Is there something obvious I need to do? (SATA disks, on /dev/sda and /dev/sdb.) | 01:42 |

| Thorax | TomG: but I don't use the wrapper.. i don't think. What exactly consitutes full path? | 01:43 |
| Brimstones | Flannel: Social and helping cant mean the same thing. Please chill for a bit Mr Flannel. | 01:44 |

| Brimstones | You farted harjot ? | 01:44 |
| hoctopus | sorry!!!!! I spent 2 hours last night looking for basic software available and barely made a dent in the repository just trying to load up my system with the basic stuff that one would have wanted on a store shopping spree. anyways sorry for the caps lock being on. I've been using linux for 13 years and digging through massive repositories is a headache trait of linux. but then again nobody appreciated my pointing out the fedor | 01:44 |
| hoctopus | a security problem in 2008 either | 01:44 |
| Barnabas | harjot, be carefull or Flannel will spank you | 01:44 |

| Barnabas | zebastian, way to go | 01:46 |
| StonedSlacker | Hey guys, how I would find out very specific hardware info such as the chipset of my internal wireless card in my laptop etc? I have entered the p/n on the compaq website but only got generic info about the network interfaces. | 01:46 |
| Barnabas | zebastian, real men dont backup, real men cry a lot | 01:47 |
| zebastian | Barnabas: so you are irish and itll take 36 hours it says | 01:47 |
| Monotoko | Barnabas, so true XD | 01:47 |
| Barnabas | zebastian, Im from Denmark ;-) | 01:47 |
| Barnabas | still a red head tough | 01:47 |
| Thorax | TomG: Tom, I don't have the wrapper for flash | 01:47 |
| Thorax | TomG: Are you using the 64 bit version of it? | 01:47 |
| zebastian | Barnabas: det er godt | 01:48 |
| zebastian | takk | 01:48 |
| TomG | Thorax: Yes. I have 64bit flash 10. | 01:48 |
| zebastian | for hjelpe | 01:48 |
| Barnabas | zebastian, you are welcome but this channel is english | 01:48 |
| Thorax | TomG: the actual file, is it named with the wrapper? | 01:48 |
| Barnabas | other ppl may benifit from keeping to english | 01:48 |
| Thorax | TomG: or is it something that you prefixed to make it work? | 01:48 |
| TomG | Thorax: No. It's named libflashplayer.so. Did you install flash manually? | 01:48 |
| Thorax | yes | 01:48 |
| kHiMzKie` | a | 01:48 |
| zebastian | ok | 01:49 |
| Thorax | TomG: yes | 01:49 |
| Barnabas | I belive this channel is transcriped somewhere | 01:49 |
| gingerheadman | techzg, I assume you want to create a second partition on the disk you currently use for windows vista. boot from the ubuntu cd, then click on System->Partition Editor. resize your 499GB partition and create a new ext4 partition in the free space | 01:49 |
| TomG | Thorax: And you followed the installation instructions by removing the flash plugin installer package? | 01:49 |
| Barnabas | online log or something | 01:49 |

| ZykoticK9 | Gowesty1990, yes - the web site is up, but the repo is down, thus you could infact download the libdvdcss2 package and install it - sorry forgot about that, too used to using apt to install things :) | 02:06 |

| greezmunkey | gusty: there is a time stamp on the entries, if you have an idea of the last time this occurred, you could start there. I can't tell you what to look for without knowing more about your system. | 02:15 |
| ZykoticK9 | gingerheadman, why would you do that? the system was NOT meant to be run that way. | 02:15 |
| greezmunkey | gusty: Except to say that I'd look for kernel error messages, anything that has to do with networking, etc. | 02:16 |
| CaptainTrek | gingerheadman: the system won't let you do that anyways. there are protective measures in there that prevent it for some files | 02:16 |

| gingerheadman | ZykoticK9: well he just installed lampp, which installs to /opt and he said he wanted a way to be able to change the files in /opt/lampp/htdocs (cause thats where lampp looks for php documents) so i told him how to use chown and then he did it to the whole filesystem :P | 02:17 |
| juan_ | HABLAMOS | 02:17 |
| gingerheadman | CaptainTrek, he did say there were a few files that wouldn't change | 02:18 |

| zoopZoO | the same with the 2k bug.. | 02:46 |
| Monotoko_Sleep | garett_...just right click it | 02:46 |
| SpenserJ | I figured everyone relied on 32bit being ancient by then, so I'll tell him that all of you geniuses agreed :D | 02:46 |
| Dr_Willis | garrett_: set a actual Label on the filesystem so it has a 'name' i belive. | 02:46 |

| Geekthras | though actually, the 2038 bug has caused issues already | 02:47 |
| zoopZoO | i had a hackintosh | 02:47 |

| zoopZoO | for about 6months | 02:47 |

| zoopZoO | gentoo based.. but it seems to hard for me :p | 02:47 |
| SpenserJ | zoopZoO: A little bit buggy still, but for the most part it is quite stable. Random crashes occur (or so it says) but I haven't had an app actually crash in weeks | 02:48 |
| Geekthras | therefore, since teh bug is at 2038, not 2106, it's signed | 02:48 |
| zoopZoO | sounds goods | 02:48 |
| rww | timClicks: sudo apt-get -o APT::Install-Suggests=true install packagenamehere | 02:48 |

| almoxarife | isaac_: just stop the d/l and restart with the new client | 03:37 |
| kman | Xterm may have been one of the options. I'll have to restart and see. | 03:37 |
| David-A | isaac_: yes, it should be, just stop the 1st torrent client, start the 2nd client and give it the same torrent file and the same download folder. | 03:37 |

| zen933k | kman: can you make yourself a live-cd of 9.10? | 03:38 |
| zen933k | kman: or live usb? | 03:38 |
| isaac_ | Unetbootin! | 03:38 |
| David-A | isaac_: clients usually look for what already exists, and then verify how much of it matches the hashes in the torrent file. | 03:39 |
| NeedleInYourArms | so anyone know what i can do to fix it? | 03:39 |
| zen933k | NeedleInYourArms: What's the laptop? | 03:40 |
| rafaelsoaresbr | please help me: http://pastebin.com/nUrJh3R8 | 03:40 |
| harjot | zebastian: are you done? | 03:40 |
| kman | OK rebooted and I do have a text console. | 03:40 |
| NeedleInYourArms | umm toshiba satellite l305 | 03:40 |
| NeedleInYourArms | L305* | 03:40 |
| zebastian | nope 38 hours left to backup 80 gb | 03:40 |
| nyhcjedi | Hello all is there a way to see what hardware is installed in my ubuntu machine? Similar to windows "device manager" | 03:40 |
| Gnea | rafaelsoaresbr: why install grub to /dev/sda7 and not /dev/sda? | 03:40 |
| zen933k | NeedleInYourArms: Yeah, reading about toshi's having fan issues... | 03:41 |
| kman | Would the live 9.10 be easier to get the system up and running? | 03:41 |
| zen933k | kman: It may, I've never done a new install ontop on an old where files would be recovered. | 03:41 |
| NeedleInYourArms | this is my first time on any actually linux os as wall | 03:41 |
| IdleOne | nyhcjedi: install hardinfo | 03:41 |
| zen933k | NeedleInYourArms: Give me a minute to see what I can dig up | 03:41 |
| nyhcjedi | free software from manager? | 03:41 |
| rafaelsoaresbr | Gnea, I am using a third party boot loader | 03:41 |
| NeedleInYourArms | thank you zen933k lol | 03:42 |
| Gnea | rafaelsoaresbr: so what's the problem? | 03:42 |
| zen933k | NeedleInYourArms: Which version of ubuntu? | 03:42 |
| NeedleInYourArms | its actually kubuntu | 03:42 |
| nyhcjedi | ty m8 | 03:42 |
| NeedleInYourArms | 9.1 i think | 03:42 |
| syniphas | server irc.esper.net | 03:42 |
| IdleOne | nyhcjedi: yes in the repos | 03:42 |
| syniphas | ffff | 03:42 |
| nyhcjedi | tyvm | 03:42 |
| David-A | rafaelsoaresbr: then there must be a boot loader at the beginning of the disk (mbr) that chainloads into sda7. | 03:43 |
| rafaelsoaresbr | Gnea, It needs grub to be installed at system partition | 03:43 |
| IdleOne | nyhcjedi: it is a GUI app but for some reason doesn't add itself to the menu so to run it just type hardinfo in terminal | 03:43 |
| iflema | rafaelsoaresbr (hd0,7) for grub2 (hd0,6) for grub 1 | 03:43 |
| Gnea | rafaelsoaresbr: nah, you can install it to sda7 | 03:43 |
| Gnea | iflema: I'm not familiar with grub2 just yet, I'm guessing: setup (hd0,7) would be the final command still? | 03:44 |
| harjot | Ok guys goodnight im sleeping :) | 03:44 |
| iflema | 9.10 + has grub2 by default | 03:44 |
| mc_ | rafaelsoaresbr, | 03:44 |
| mc_ | I have linux on /dev/sdb1 | 03:44 |
| Gnea | as I said, I haven't used grub2 much at all :) | 03:44 |
| * Gnea is still running 9.04 | 03:44 | |
| rafaelsoaresbr | David-A, yes, I have installed GAG, a boot manager, windows xp and 7 are already installed and booting | 03:44 |
| mc_ | and my menuconf has line | 03:44 |
| mc_ | root (hd1,0) | 03:45 |
| MrD_ | I have a serious problem with update manager | 03:45 |
| MrD_ | Failed to run /usr/sbin/synaptic '--hide-main-window' '--non-interactive' '--parent-window-id' '85983269' '-o' 'Synaptic::closeZvt=true' '--progress-str' 'Please wait, this can take some time.' '--finish-str' 'Update is complete' '--set-selections-file' '/tmp/tmprkWbAF' as user root. | 03:45 |
| rafaelsoaresbr | iflema, Thanks | 03:45 |
| mc_ | so it would be hd1,6 for you | 03:45 |
| mc_ | I would think | 03:45 |
| kman | Zen. Once in the command window is there some commands to restart the version upgrade so it will recover or continue the upgrade? | 03:45 |
| ChogyDan | kman: what flavor of ubuntu are you using? ubuntu desktop? server? kubuntu? etc | 03:46 |
| zen933k | kman: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get --fix-missing | 03:47 |
| David-A | rafaelsoaresbr: do you mean that the boot starts with mbr on sdb (hd1)? and that it shall chainload into sda7 (hd0,6or7)? | 03:47 |
| zen933k | NeedleInYourArms: You could check out this suggestion: http://www.symbiosoft.net/?q=node/66 | 03:47 |
| kman | Thanks zen. I 'll try that and see what happens. | 03:47 |
| nyhcjedi | how can i tell which nic my ubuntu client is using to get out to the net? | 03:48 |
| tvaughn | I just installed ubuntu 9.10 and updated and rebooted as it asked me to... and now it wont login it just accepts the password, trys to login, then crashes back to login prompt | 03:48 |
| NeedleInYourArms | thanks zen933k ill try that and get back to you | 03:48 |
| mc_ | nyhcjedi, netstat -r | 03:49 |
| kman | Chog. I originally started with the 8.? server version and then decided to move to the non server to get some of the more current updates. | 03:49 |
| zen933k | NeedleInYourArms: Try googling around with your laptop. Seems to be a common Toshi issue. | 03:49 |
| nyhcjedi | at termina | 03:49 |
| nyhcjedi | termina | 03:49 |
| nyhcjedi | ;terminal? sorry | 03:49 |
| mc_ | nyhcjedi, and see what interface is set for default gateway | 03:49 |
| NeedleInYourArms | will do | 03:49 |
| mc_ | default line | 03:49 |
| mc_ | yes | 03:49 |
| b00b | !! help -- my computer keeps trying to connect to my neighbor's network after bootup.. anyone, any ideas? | 03:49 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 03:49 |
| tvaughn | NeedleInYourArms: yeah toshiba laptops are a pain :( | 03:49 |
| tvaughn | I have one too | 03:49 |
| kman | OK I'll be away for a minute while I try the sudo apt-get. | 03:50 |
| rafaelsoaresbr | David-A, All I know is that it loads the GRUB that is installed at /dev/sda7 | 03:50 |
| nyhcjedi | ty mc | 03:50 |
| mc_ | np | 03:50 |
| Maeda | What do you do if you can't run nautilus? | 03:50 |
| un214 | run mc? | 03:50 |
| isaac_ | David-A the file so far: Is this the file stored in Ubuntu's "Downloads" folder, that Properties says is already full size? Or do I need to find the Transmission operating folder to get the part file? | 03:50 |
| zen933k | b00b: Settings-> Network Connections -> click wireless tab, delete his network | 03:50 |
| David-A | tvaughn: try select session "gnome failsafe" before login, then try debug/fix problem, then remember to switch back to "gnome" when it works | 03:51 |
| b00b | ZEN == thx so much!! | 03:51 |
| zen933k | all those days spent pulling my hair out are paying off... | 03:52 |
| markatto | why r the buttons on the left window side now? | 03:52 |
| David-A | isaac: what folder it downloads to should be a setting in the torrent client (or maybe can be selected per torrent file) | 03:52 |
| mc_ | rafaelsoaresbr, /dev/sda7 would have line root (hd0,6) I think | 03:52 |
| zen933k | markatto: politics ;) | 03:52 |
| markatto | zen933k: is not the right side more proper and better for the use of people? | 03:53 |
| zen933k | er | 03:53 |
| w_ | whit? | 03:53 |
| w_ | what? | 03:53 |
| isaac_ | markatto /join #ubuntu+1 | 03:53 |
| markatto | had i wished to acquire a computer window buttons on right i would buy apple | 03:54 |
| David-A | isaac: a partially received file will have a file size indicating a complete file (but with good filesystem, the not yet received parts of the file will occupy no disk space) | 03:54 |
| CaptainTrek | markatto: type /join #ubuntu+1 | 03:54 |
| isaac_ | My internet connection is slllloooooowwww (hence the bit torrents) so I haven't tried a beta. Are the buttons in new Ubuntu (Lucid) really so hideous? | 03:54 |
| Fikcio | Hello. I need help. | 03:54 |
| isaac_ | Fikcio what's the problem? | 03:55 |
| MrD_ | issac_ yes | 03:55 |
| MrD_ | they are God awful | 03:55 |
| Fikcio | I'm having problems with GRUB after having tried to reinstall Windows. | 03:55 |
| markatto | CaptainTrek: is this channel not ubuntu help channel? | 03:55 |
| xangua | Fikcio: normaly windows deletes grub | 03:55 |
| CaptainTrek | markatto: yes, for stable released versions. here, i'll show you | 03:55 |
| CaptainTrek | !lucid | markatto | 03:55 |
| Fikcio | Yes. I'm trying to reinstall GRUB, but I get error 17. | 03:55 |
| ubottu | markatto: Lucid Lynx is the codename for Ubuntu 10.04, due April 29th, 2010 - Lucid is NOT released and is NOT stable - Discussion and support only in #ubuntu+1 - Development Schedule: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LucidReleaseSchedule | 03:55 |
| MrD_ | I recommend waiting for the release, I still get plenty of bugs with Lucid | 03:56 |
| isaac_ | Fikcio boot from the Ubuntu live cd and fix grub from it. | 03:56 |
| MrD_ | for example, I can't run updates now | 03:56 |
| un214 | hint: be free of UI politics: use kubuntu-desktop which mark shuttleworth doesn't | 03:56 |
| Fikcio | Yes, I'm using Ubuntu Live CD right now. | 03:56 |
| gdewald | whats a good video player for ubuntu? I need one that works well with subtitle fonts and multiple audio streams | 03:56 |
| MrD_ | VLC is awesome | 03:56 |
| isaac_ | Fikcio alternatively, use a partition editor (like the one on that live CD), delete all Ubuntu and reinstall it. It would also fix GRUB en route. | 03:56 |
| straterra | I just downloaded the netbook remix..and the usb creator app won't load the iso. The iso has been verified as good. | 03:56 |
| straterra | Any ideas on this? | 03:57 |
| isaac_ | Kind of like burning down the barn to kill the rats, but it would work with least nit-picking. | 03:57 |
| xOOx | Hi, I want to use putty to connect to my Linux machine; putty -D 8080 -P 443 -ssh homeIP; if I use a local ip address (192.168.0.3) it works fine. but how can I change it to actual ip address; The problem is that all computers in my network have same ip; so what I should insert for homeIP? | 03:57 |
| xangua | straterra: are you in the live cd now¿ | 03:57 |
| gdewald | MrD_, I hate VLC, it uses its own fonts for displaying subtitles | 03:57 |
| zen933k | markatto: http://lifehacker.com/5500577/move-ubuntus-window-buttons-back-to-the-right | 03:57 |
| straterra | No.. | 03:57 |
| isaac_ | straterra unetbootin | 03:57 |
| straterra | I'm in Windows | 03:57 |
| tvaughn | David-A: could grub cause this? | 03:57 |
| Fikcio | Is it necessary that I delete my partitions? | 03:57 |
| MrD_ | also, the netbook edition has a fatal flaw (when I used it a month ago) the program menu doesn't scroll down as far as it should! I was missing programs! I'd suggest sticking to regular old 9.10 | 03:58 |
| markatto | zen933k: why do i wish to use hacker site? | 03:58 |
| Fikcio | I mean, all I need to do is reinstall GRUB so that I can access my Ubuntu. | 03:58 |
| rafaelsoaresbr | iflema, I'm going to intall 9.10, so it installs grub2, can you post a reply here: http://pastebin.com/nUrJh3R8 ? | 03:58 |
| markatto | zen933k: i do not want hacked my computer | 03:58 |
| tvaughn | oh failsafe worked.. | 03:58 |
| mc_ | Fikcio just google "repair grub from live cd" | 03:58 |
| MrD_ | so I can't install updates from update manager | 03:58 |
| MrD_ | I get this: The underlying authorization mechanism (sudo) does not allow you to run this program. Contact the system administrator. | 03:58 |
| Fikcio | Yes, I did. | 03:58 |
| tvaughn | markatto: I seriously hope you are joking | 03:58 |
| MrD_ | after I ran 'su' | 03:58 |
| Fikcio | I followed all the steps and read the troubleshooting. | 03:58 |
| zen933k | markatto: Certainly not what that site is for :P The article talks about the buttons. I'll just top since it's not the topic of the chan though | 03:58 |
| David-A | tvaughn: sorry, cause what? | 03:59 |
| Fikcio | Still get this error 17. | 03:59 |
| mc_ | so you did find out which partiton has grub and run setup for it? | 03:59 |
| tvaughn | David-A: the login issue but it worked in failsafe what do I do now | 03:59 |
| Fikcio | Yes, this is not the first time I have to do this. | 03:59 |
| Fikcio | I don't know what's going on. | 03:59 |
| mc_ | I mean which partition has stage1 file | 03:59 |
| xangua | straterra: so you are using unetbootin¿ | 03:59 |
| markatto | zen933k: why you try to get my computer hacked? | 03:59 |
| kman | Zen. the sudo apt-get update failed with a bunch of warnings and an error message. It suggested trying sudo dpkg --configure -a to correct the problem. | 04:00 |
| geekphreak | markatto: he is not relax man, its a safe site | 04:00 |
| mc_ | Fikcio I did it in the past | 04:00 |
| Fikcio | Yes. Last time I did: root (hd0,0); setup (hd0). | 04:00 |
| tvaughn | markatto: stop trolling | 04:00 |
| Fikcio | Now it raises error 17 after setup (hd0). | 04:00 |
| kman | it seems to be running something and hopefully it will get the upgrade back on the rails. | 04:00 |
| bodi | geekphreak, hows it going | 04:00 |
| David-A | tvaughn: grub is not involved when logging in. i would suspect old settings not compatible with new programs if login fails after upgrade (settings in dot-files in home folder) | 04:00 |
| tvaughn | David-A: well what should I do | 04:01 |
| mc_ | Fikcio, well then google grub error 17, I found this e.g. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=442945 | 04:01 |
| MrD_ | kman it didnt help | 04:01 |
| markatto | how i use this "gconf-editor" | 04:01 |
| markatto | i do not see in menu | 04:01 |
| bodi | IdleOne, - are you gonna unban me or what lol | 04:02 |
| tvaughn | markatto: terminal | 04:02 |
| edbian | markatto, "gconf-editor" in a terminal | 04:02 |
| isaac_ | markatto hit Alt F2 and type gconf-editor | 04:02 |
| iflema | rafaelsoaresbr on screen 7 of the installer click on advanced and hit the dropdown box | 04:02 |
| isaac_ | Or terminal | 04:02 |
| mc_ | wow, late, cya guys | 04:02 |
| epispider | join #chits | 04:02 |
| Fikcio | mc_, I cannot imagine what could have changed since the last time I did this, but I'll give it a try. | 04:02 |
| Fikcio | Thank you. | 04:02 |
| xangua | epispider: don't spam | 04:02 |
| zen933k | kman: Sorry I missed your message | 04:03 |
| IdleOne | bodi: ban evading, you have been banned once already | 04:03 |
| IdleOne | please join #ubuntu-ops | 04:03 |
| zen933k | kman: Try doing what it suggests. | 04:03 |
| David-A | tvaughn: copy all dot-files to a temporary folder (e.g. called "dot-file-backup/") and see if login works (all your themes and mails will be gone) then dot files back one at a time , logout and login, and see when it stops working, that is the offending dotfile. then copy all other dotfiles back and themes and mails should be back. | 04:03 |
| bodi | yes you banned me last night hiexpo and i appoligize i should not have blew up | 04:04 |
| markatto | gconf-editor is like windows registry? | 04:04 |
| IdleOne | bodi: please join #ubuntu-ops. | 04:04 |
| tvaughn | David-A: there has to be a less tedius way.. | 04:04 |
| bodi | ok | 04:04 |
| zen933k | markatto: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gconf-editor | 04:05 |
| David-A | tvaughn: yes, see log files and google suspect error messages | 04:05 |
| NeedleInYourArms | zen933k: that seemed to work thank you =] | 04:05 |
| David-A | tvaughn: e.g. .xsession-errors | 04:05 |
| zen933k | NeedleInYourArms: Monitor your CPU temp for a bit | 04:06 |
| markatto | how i change settings it "gconf-editor" ????? | 04:06 |
| NeedleInYourArms | umm how do i do that? | 04:06 |
| zen933k | NeedleInYourArms: If your bios has fail safe for CPU temp shutdown you may want to set them. If you find you can run games/apps without things getting too hot then consider yourself fixed ;) | 04:06 |
| xangua | markatto: what do you want to change¿¿ | 04:07 |
| NeedleInYourArms | ahh | 04:07 |
| NeedleInYourArms | can i use the widget for cpu temp? | 04:07 |
| zen933k | NeedleInYourArms: sudo apt-get acpi | 04:07 |
| markatto | xangua: window button position | 04:07 |
| NeedleInYourArms | ohh ok | 04:07 |
| zen933k | NeedleInYourArms: sudo apt-get acpi | 04:07 |
| rafaelsoaresbr | iflema, thanks, i am on windows right now, going restart to install ubuntu. so (hd0,6) is /dev/sda7 for grub2 | 04:07 |
| MrD_ | I fixed it, it was some sudo problems | 04:07 |
| zen933k | NeedleInYourArms: er, yeah the widget might be handy too if it works :) | 04:07 |
| MrD_ | any widget that tells you how much energy your PC takes? | 04:07 |
| MrD_ | or consumes actually? | 04:07 |
| zen933k | NeedleInYourArms: acpi -V will give you all kinds of fun stats | 04:07 |
| xangua | markatto: go to /apps/metacity/general ; button_layout entry | 04:07 |
| iflema | rafaelsoaresbr no... (hd0,7) hit the dropdown box youll see sda7 | 04:08 |
| rafaelsoaresbr | iflema, sorry it's (hd0,7) | 04:08 |
| markatto | xangua: what is "metacity" | 04:08 |
| xangua | markatto: looks like there is a gui to make easier this; ubuntu tweak is called | 04:08 |
| zen933k | NeedleInYourArms: The widgets do not seem to work on my netbook so I depend on 'acpi' to keep me updated. You can always read up on it by googling it | 04:09 |
| iflema | rafaelsoaresbr the installer is easy... screen 7 advanced dropdown box..... alternate cd will be slightly different | 04:09 |
| xangua | markatto: metacity is the gnome window manager | 04:09 |
| tvaughn | David-A: I dont have a .xsession-errors | 04:09 |
| rafaelsoaresbr | iflema, thanks, i am going to connect to this channel during instalation | 04:10 |
| tvaughn | oh in my home dir | 04:10 |
| tvaughn | hm fatal io error might do it | 04:10 |

| iflema | ive gotta go put me netbook in the shop ;)... good luck... | 04:10 |
| markatto | it tell me i cannot edit "button_layout" | 04:10 |
| zen933k | NeedleInYourArms: Sweet. Enjoy Ubuntu :) | 04:10 |
| NeedleInYourArms | will do | 04:10 |
| NeedleInYourArms | and thanks for the help | 04:10 |
| NeedleInYourArms | i know i coulda googled it but i wouldnt know where to start lol | 04:11 |
| h00k | markatto: are you talking about Lucid? | 04:11 |
| zen933k | No prob. This channel has saved me enough times. | 04:11 |
| markatto | h00k: new ubuntu version | 04:11 |
| h00k | markatto: If you're referring to lucid, that discussion takes place in #ubuntu+1 | 04:11 |
| David-A | tvaughn: there should be a .xsession-errors after you have loggen in in a graphical environment (as opposed to text mode) its a hidden file so you need ls -a or control-h in the file browser | 04:12 |
| zen933k | NeedleInYourArms: I wanted to know when I saw toshiba in case I end up putting Ubuntu on my gf's one day | 04:12 |
| tvaughn | David-A: I found it but google is failing me :( | 04:12 |
| NeedleInYourArms | ohh so i helped you in the process also sweet | 04:12 |

| Shizuo | Offtopic where? | 04:14 |
| David-A | tvaughn: what about creating a new user, e.g. "alterego" and login into that, see if that work. then old dotfiles are even more likely the cause. | 04:14 |

| David-A | Cancu: if cmp file1 file1; then ...; fi | 04:18 |
| inglor | plasma-desktop under ubuntu... I feel dirty | 04:18 |
| RedXIII | I have a file named "test.xml.phpgz", won't decompress to base64 and isn't a 'gz' archive. | 04:18 |
| David-A | tvaughn: does login into a new user "alterego" fail? not good then | 04:19 |

| tvaughn | er.. when I choose install ubuntu should it start scrolling text? | 04:22 |
| IdleOne | tvaughn: yes some | 04:22 |
| IdleOne | tvaughn: you installing from the live cd? | 04:22 |
| tvaughn | it stopped at host added ieeee1394 | 04:23 |
| tvaughn | yeah | 04:23 |
| ghostsan | thanks | 04:23 |
| tvaughn | IdleOne: where can I get the nonlive cd? | 04:23 |
| IdleOne | !alternate | 04:23 |
| ubottu | The Alternate CD is a classic text-mode install CD. It supports a wider range of hardware than the !LiveCD, and can also be used as an upgrade CD. Look for the link on the Ubuntu download page - See also !minimal | 04:23 |
| tvaughn | ohh | 04:23 |
| tvaughn | wondered what that was | 04:23 |
| tvaughn | :D | 04:23 |

| hmw | I just "lost" my external USB HD. mount says something about a bad superblock and windows XP can't use it either. I have no idea, what could have caused this, no crash happened, afaict. What can I do to recover my disk? | 04:33 |
| roark | VinceN, Sorry I thought you replied to my message... looks like I was wrong... | 04:34 |
| NeedleInYourArms | so is 60 f a good cpu temp? | 04:34 |
| hmw | 60°C often is a good CPU temp these days | 04:35 |
| NeedleInYourArms | ahh good then the thing worked | 04:35 |
| hmw | why does ubuntu hate me? | 04:35 |
| Capt_Blackwood | hmw, i usually begin to panic at 85 C | 04:35 |
| Capt_Blackwood | hmw, what's the issue? | 04:36 |
| David-A | hmw: does it exists as a device in /dev, e.g. /dev/sdc or something? then use special programs to extract files from damaged harddisks | 04:36 |
| hmw | yes, its listed with fstab -l | 04:36 |
| gdewald | fyi F13 opens the console... | 04:36 |
| hmw | the disk is quite new | 04:36 |
| David-A | hmw: is the usb cable long? | 04:37 |
| hmw | David-A: about 1.5m, it was part of the package. I used it with a USB Hub | 04:38 |
| hmw | I can't "extract" really, because it is my BIG disk :/ | 04:38 |
| Some_Person | I now have a 1TB external hard drive, and I need to format the darn thing to something that hopefully won't bother with permissions but still be readable and writable in Linux, Mac OS X, and Windows | 04:39 |
| NeedleInYourArms | oh and could someone help me with vlc by chance i cant get it to save a playlist/library | 04:39 |
| kman | ZEn you still out there? | 04:40 |
| NeedleInYourArms | i could under windows but not kubunt to for some reason o.o | 04:40 |
| TimothyA | Some_Person: quite a tall order | 04:40 |
| Capt_Blackwood | Some_Person, Set it up as a FAT32 Filesystem | 04:40 |
| TimothyA | but I guess FAT would be most cross-platform friendly, unless someone knows of a better solution | 04:40 |
| Capt_Blackwood | ALL OSES can write to it | 04:40 |
| TimothyA | er yes, FAT32 >_< | 04:41 |
| Some_Person | TimothyA: I have it as NTFS now, and the darn permissions are screwing me up between operating systems | 04:41 |
| TimothyA | Capt_Blackwood: although *nix/mac need some encouragement | 04:41 |
| gimpster_ | is this a good place to get help with a wireless network card (BCM4318 on Ubuntu 9.10) | 04:41 |
| Some_Person | Will FAT32 have the same problem, and does it even support 1TB drives? | 04:41 |
| TimothyA | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FAT32 | 04:41 |
| TimothyA | This allows for drive sizes of up to 8 TiB with 32 KiB clusters, but the boot sector uses a 32-bit field for the sector count, limiting volume size to 2 TiB on a hard disk with 512 byte sectors. | 04:41 |
| Capt_Blackwood | Some_Person, do you have a program called GParted? | 04:42 |
| Capt_Blackwood | that's how i set mine up | 04:42 |
| hmw | David-A: i'd expect some IO errors, if there was a physical error, so I assume, it's just logical. Are there any tools, that might be able to recover the partition? | 04:42 |
| Some_Person | Capt_Blackwood: I'm not a newbie | 04:42 |
| kman | Hello all Is there a sudo apt-get -fixmissing command? | 04:42 |
| CaptainTrek | Some_Person: FAT32 is a bad decision for large drives :P | 04:42 |
| David-A | hmw: i recall i read about problems with usb harddisk, when accounting the part of the cable inside the computer box it was maybe over 1 meter. try shorter cable and no hub | 04:42 |
| Capt_Blackwood | I know NTFS can be read and written to in linux. | 04:42 |
| Some_Person | Capt_Blackwood: What would you recommend then? | 04:42 |
| TimothyA | This limitation is by design and according to Microsoft was imposed because many tasks on a very large FAT32 file system become slow and inefficient. | 04:42 |
| Capt_Blackwood | MACS are read only from what i know | 04:42 |
| hmw | I guess it's too late for a shorter cable now. That is really bad. As bad as W95... | 04:43 |
| TimothyA | I suggest just using ext2 and using something in windows to read that ;>_> | 04:43 |
| Some_Person | Capt_Blackwood: You can write to NTFS on Mac OS X with MacFuse and some NTFS-3G thingy for it | 04:43 |
| Capt_Blackwood | Can Macs see EXT2? | 04:43 |
| David-A | hmw: there are a lot of recovery programs in the repositories, depending what was wrong and what to recover | 04:43 |
| Capt_Blackwood | oh...i see | 04:43 |
| Some_Person | I'm really hoping for a file system that will completely ignore permissions though. That is my problem | 04:44 |
| CaptainTrek | Some_Person, there's no filesystem that I know of that ignores permissions. | 04:44 |
| Capt_Blackwood | I don't know about large drives...sorry. | 04:44 |
| TimothyA | Capt_Blackwood: it should see ext2 :| | 04:44 |
| Capt_Blackwood | well, permission ignoring filesystems. | 04:44 |
| TimothyA | Some_Person: a sheet of paper and pen! | 04:45 |
| gimpster_ | I really do need help with my network card to work in this rig please help me | 04:45 |

| pmp6nl | some_person, you shouldnt be. mine works fine between win7, vista, and ubuntu. what ubuntu version? | 04:48 |
| hmw | Some_Person: you can't expect permissions to work on a non-native filesystem. Either you have no perms and some programs will not like it, but everyone can access it, or you have to use ext{2|3|4} and deal WITH permissions. | 04:48 |
| crucialhoax | gimpster_: Does this help? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx | 04:48 |

| DankNugs | A few days ago, the latest build of lucid was working great. THen after a few updates, I can't get to gdm. It shows loading screen, goes blank. Doesn't respond to ctrl+alt+f# keys | 04:49 |

| crucialhoax | gimpster_: Sweet, hopefully it works :) | 04:51 |
| DankNugs | Oh, my bad. | 04:51 |
| Some_Person | Basically, what I did was mounted it in Windows (on a machine connected via the network), created some files, booted ubuntu on that same machine, and those files are read-only | 04:51 |
| xangua | DankNugs: well, it's a beta after all, what were you expecting¿ | 04:52 |
| pmp6nl | Some_Person can you access the windows partition on that hd from ubuntu (all on the same computer)? | 04:52 |
| DankNugs | oh, I know. I don't have a problem with it. :) I was just curious if someone could help me through some troubleshooting is all. Hard for me to do it on forums. But thank you. | 04:53 |
| Capt_Blackwood | DankNugs, 10.04 LTS? | 04:53 |
| Capt_Blackwood | DankNugs, if yes please try #ubuntu+1 | 04:53 |

| DankNugs | I did. That's why I came in here. My impatience got the best of me. | 04:54 |
| Capt_Blackwood | ditch the impatience bro, and go back in and hang...somebody gotta say something | 04:54 |
| Capt_Blackwood | i hope that's not take personally | 04:55 |
| hylian | hello all | 04:55 |
| DankNugs | I'm doing just that. lol I figured it'd be quicker to talk to someone on irc than to read manpages | 04:55 |

| Flannel | techhelper1: Bots aren't welcome here. | 05:06 |
| hylian | rayvhen you should be able to keep xubuntu, and still install either of those softwares. i just mentioned that it doesnt come with xubuntu because it's gnome based (ubuntu is gnome based) | 05:06 |
| Flannel | techhelper1: (please remove it) | 05:06 |
| techhelper1 | Flannel i am sorry, but i said earlier it is a work in progress | 05:07 |
| Joelito | chelz if I run my app and later use echo $_ | 05:07 |
| hmw | My USB drive just "died" (logically, it seems). When I try to mount the file system, mount tells me, I needed to specify the fs type. How do I approach a recovery? | 05:07 |
| Flannel | rayvhen: That is the proper term. If it's set up as MSC, then it just shows up as bulk stoage both places, so you don't need to transfer stuff. | 05:07 |
| alexander_ | Thats good | 05:07 |
| techhelper1 | and i thought i would show it here | 05:07 |
| Joelito | returns the binary name file | 05:07 |
| Flannel | techhelper1: Right, but "work in progress" bots aren't welcome just as "finished" ones aren't | 05:07 |
| halcyon-sky | yo | 05:07 |
| hylian | flannel, please say thet ubottu can stay, LOL he saved my bacon like 3 times with quick answers | 05:08 |
| Flannel | hylian: We run ubottu ;) | 05:08 |
| alexander_ | Flannel thank you. Do you know if it exist in spanish | 05:08 |
| techhelper1 | Can it stay if it relay's 1 way, and not the other | 05:08 |
| chelz | Joelito: you use "echo $?" ? | 05:08 |
| Flannel | alexander_: I don't, you might ask in #ubuntu-es, they'd be more familiar | 05:08 |
| ^b0ss^ | Question : how well does ubuntu work with generic webcams ? | 05:08 |
| wombatman | rayvhen: both modes should work but try restarting with it plugged in. It can be a hassle but it may temporarily solve the problem and then search for fixes. I remember reading something about a fix having to do with a newer version of something but you may need to compile manually | 05:08 |
| mneptok | ubottu: intinedo Espanol? | 05:08 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 05:08 |
| techhelper1 | it relays out to 1 network and does not recieve not back here flannel | 05:08 |

| Joelito | chelz ah! nop :), I was using $_ | 05:09 |

| ^b0ss^ | chelz: could you look at this .. http://arc.com.au/pub.php?pid=34873&p=product | 05:09 |
| alexander_ | byeç | 05:09 |
| hylian | nothing huh | 05:09 |
| chelz | ^b0ss^: best way to determine if hardware is well supported is to get a brand and model number, also some kind of PCI or USB ID that i hear exist would be good. there's hardly any info on that page so it's probably a gamble. i really don't know of your chances are good or bad. | 05:10 |
| mneptok | hylian: does the music player show up as a mass storage device in Xubuntu? | 05:10 |
| hmw | My USB drive just "died" (logically, it seems). I put it directly into the PC and connected it via the internal sata cable. I'd like to re-construct the partition table and whatever might be damaged. I had no crash and suddenly i noticed the drive to be missing on my desktop. What tools are there, that could do something like searching for contents and recreate the FAT file system? (I thought, i used NTFS, but I am not sure) | 05:11 |
| ^b0ss^ | ok thanks ....what about a microsoft product ? http://arc.com.au/pub.php?pid=34873&p=product | 05:11 |
| David-A | hmw: have you verified its not the cable, because if it is a recovery might have unnessecary problems too? | 05:11 |
| hmw | David-A: i put the drive into the case of the computer and connected with INTERNAL sata | 05:11 |
| hylian | mneptok some do some dont. thats why i suggested rhapsody because it "sync's" well with most players, including sansa. mine is just a big flash hard drive, so i can just drag and drop | 05:11 |
| nameless | hi every one | 05:11 |
| chelz | hmw: really make sure there's something wrong with it before messing with the fs | 05:11 |
| hmw | chelz: it wont mount anymore | 05:12 |
| hmw | chelz: not in Ubuntu nor WinXP | 05:12 |
| mneptok | hylian: sorry, i see rayvhen was asking | 05:12 |
| chelz | hmw: what message do you get when you try to mount it in the terminal? (please pastebin) | 05:12 |
| David-A | hmw: and the io-error remains? ok | 05:12 |
| mneptok | rayvhen: does the music player show up as a mass storage device in Xubuntu? | 05:12 |
| hmw | chelz: i must specify the file system type | 05:12 |
| hylian | mneptok no problem. i just log in now and then to try and help people. | 05:12 |
| hushedfeet | P | 05:12 |
| chelz | hmw: what does partition editor / gparted say about it? | 05:12 |
| rayvhen | Thats the thing. It doesnt show up at all | 05:12 |
| hmw | David-A: there is NO IO ERROR... it must be logical | 05:12 |
| chelz | ^b0ss^: that's the same link, i think | 05:13 |
| mneptok | rayvhen: what kind of player? | 05:13 |
| hylian | rayvhen even once rhapsody is going? | 05:13 |
| rayvhen | sansa sandisk clip | 05:13 |
| nichos | hi all, im trying to follow the myth wiki im stuck on a step. it's telling me to unmute IEC958 from alsa mixer, but i don't have that listed | 05:13 |
| rayvhen | rhapsody wont install | 05:13 |
| mneptok | rayvhen: use the preferences in the Sansa UI to switch the player from MTP to MSC mode. | 05:13 |
| hylian | mneptok, is rhapsody gnome only? | 05:13 |
| mneptok | hylian: i don;t know. i'ver never used it. | 05:14 |
| hushedfeet | I am trying to configure psad on my karmic desktop, and I keep receiving an error regarding mail. upon further examination, /bin/mail doesn't exist. this seems wrong to me. | 05:14 |

| David-A | hmw: if you mount with mount -t <TYPE> /dev/<DEVICE> /<MOUNTPOINT> with correct type, does it explain why it cannot mount? | 05:16 |
| chelz | hmw: mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /mnt/ | 05:16 |
| hylian | mneptok i goofed up not rhapsody, rhythymbox. i am such a moron. | 05:16 |
| hmw | David-A: chelz: i never had to, its broken. Bad Superblock stuff | 05:16 |
| DankNugs | when should you use mount -t auto verses mount -t <specific filesystem>? | 05:17 |
| chelz | hmw: but do it for the message it puts out to pastebin the message it puts out | 05:17 |

| rayvhen | switched it to msc mode | 05:17 |
| hmw | i told you, standard blahblah i dont want this disk anymore | 05:17 |
| David-A | hmw: have you verified that /dev/sdXX is the same device/partition as when it was external? was it the whole disk (sdX) or a partition (sdXY)? | 05:18 |
| hylian | rayvhen now when you replug it back in does xubuntu recognize a new flash drive? | 05:18 |
| hmw | there is only this one disk, with one large partition. the other drive is the USB stick, i used to boot (because i can only put in one HDD internally, the system disk is not active now) | 05:19 |
| rayvhen | yes it does hylian | 05:19 |
| ed2ef | hmw, what "dmesg | tail" says? | 05:19 |
| rayvhen | you are awesome :) | 05:19 |
| hmw | ed2ef: nothing, i would have noticed as important. do you want me to grep for something special? | 05:19 |
| rayvhen | thanks a bunch :) | 05:19 |
| hylian | rayvhen actually that one belongs to mneptok, but thanx anywayz. | 05:20 |
| hylian | rayvhen im sure you know the rest, time for some drag and drop action | 05:20 |
| rayvhen | oops sry | 05:20 |
| rayvhen | Thank you Mneptok. you are freakin awesome | 05:20 |
| Guest67032 | having problems using wine, when i launch a Risk program it starts the splash screen then crashes, giving me the website for reporting bugs. any ideas, thanks | 05:20 |
| rayvhen | oh yeah. lots of drag and drop action. lol | 05:20 |
| ed2ef | hmw, can u use the mount command, them copy the output of "dmesg | tail" ? | 05:20 |
| hylian | guest67032 what version of wine? wine 1.x or 1.2/ | 05:21 |
| David-A | hmw: re. recovery programs. have you an equally large space on another disk to make a binary copy? (the copy will probably have same superblockerror) | 05:21 |
| hmw | FAT: bogus sectors per cluster 0. \n VFS: Can't find ext4 filesystem on dev sda1. -- doesnt look like IO error to me. This looks like a logical error, doesnt it? | 05:22 |
| David-A | hmw: there is also programs that recognize jpeg and other file formats and recovers them of a damaged disk (dont expect 100% recovery that way) | 05:23 |

| ed2ef | !? | 05:23 |
| hmw | David-A: i have a backup of the most important files. More importantly, how can I prevent this from happening again? What did actually happen? | 05:23 |
| hylian | xangua i think he/she is gone | 05:23 |

| geekphreak | hmw: you dont remember? | 05:24 |

| ed2ef | hmw: try mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /mnt(or other mount point) | 05:24 |
| hmw | geekphreak: right. I formatted it a few months ago, and I can't imagine to have used FAT. | 05:24 |

| hmw | ed2ef: http://pastebin.com/qK6qvgj0 http://pastebin.com/ADCfLjtZ | 05:25 |
| hmw | guess i will have to dig through 24 hours of log file :/ | 05:26 |

| hmw | hints, what I should be grepping for, if i wanted to find out, why the drive crashed? | 05:26 |
| ed2ef | hmw, but you use vfat on type?Or just put auto? | 05:26 |
| ed2ef | hmw, your partition is a fat 32 dude, something is really wrong | 05:27 |
| hmw | ed2ef: i strongly doubt, that i formatted fat 32... i think, some program is crying for mama | 05:27 |
| David-A | hmw: what happend? one theory, if the cable was to long, maybe some bits were written wrong, and now when reading with a good cable, its still wrong on the disk. just an idea. | 05:27 |
| hmw | David-A: i would like to verify this. What would I see in the logs, if your theory applies? | 05:28 |
| ed2ef | hmw, idk, i never see fdisk confuse the partition type | 05:28 |
| David-A | hmw: it seems unlikely that all superblock went wrong thou. there should be lots of redundancy. | 05:29 |
| geekphreak | hmw: what does sudo cfdisk show partition type? | 05:29 |
| ed2ef | hmw, when you try "mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /mnt" it still can't mount? | 05:29 |
| David-A | hmw: what does fsck say? | 05:29 |
| hmw | geekphreak: it tells me, the MBR is messed up heavily | 05:29 |
| geekphreak | mbr? | 05:29 |
| hmw | ed2ef: http://pastebin.com/ADCfLjtZ | 05:30 |
| crucialhoax | hushedfeet: Well that is odd. Does it recognize that as a rootkit? | 05:30 |
| hmw | well, the MBR was my interpretation. cfdisk said: "FATAL ERROR: Bad primary partition 0: Partition ends in the final partial cylinder" | 05:30 |
| geekphreak | hmw: you got some issues going there , good luck :) | 05:31 |
| hmw | i could try to recalculate the MBR things manually... but i dont want to | 05:31 |

| hmw | Guest67032: that's more a question, if wine does include that. Ubuntu does NOT come with wine installed by default. Try winetricks to get DX installed, after you installed wine. | 05:43 |
| chelz | !wine | Guest67032 | 05:43 |

| hmw | chelz: lol... hm... i'd love to, but... 1TB --> 250GB wont work, i fear. I will look closer to my logs later, and after that will try to run gpart on the original drive due to lack of hardware. | 05:44 |
| polydeuces | Hey all, I just downloaded and installed Ubuntu 9.10 today (netbook remix) and just had a question about .run files, if anyone has a moment to help. | 05:44 |
| inglor | polydeuces: what seems to be the problem? | 05:44 |
| Dead_Pixel | Is there a program I can use with ubuntu, to make a full disk backup including the MBR incase of a hard disk failure? | 05:45 |
| puser | Hello, I can't figure out what happened. I get - ping: sendmsg: Operation not permitted, when ping, also, my internet seems to be completley blocked. I figure that it's a firewall, but how do I revert it to default, so that my internet works again? | 05:46 |
| red2kic | !backup | Dead_Pixel | 05:46 |
| ubottu | Dead_Pixel: There are many ways to back your system up. Here's a few: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HomeUserBackup , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MondoMindi - See also !sbackup and !cloning | 05:46 |
| hmw | Dead_Pixel: lol... they just told me to use: dd ("disk dupe") | 05:46 |
| polydeuces | inglor: in the instructions I was to change permission to run it as an executable, which I did. this program (a game called Dofus) requires adobeAir, which I installed as well (seemingly successfully) though when I attempt to run the .run install file, the terminal comes up for a split second, vanishes, and nothing happens. | 05:46 |
| inglor | polydeuces: you can run it from terminal and see what happens, you can either tag the "run in terminal" option or open the terminal yourself and type ./yourfilename.run and see what happens | 05:47 |
| inglor | I wouldn't mess with permissions at first anyway | 05:47 |
| Dead_Pixel | hmw, is there something that would make an image or something to restore to that includes the partitions and mbr and everything instead of... duplicating the disk onto another disk? | 05:47 |
| polydeuces | inglor: it was mentioned specifically in the instructions given by the company. I tried what you said earlier, there was an error message last time I tried. I'll see if I can show it to you. | 05:48 |
| hmw | Dead_Pixel: get partimage | 05:48 |
| stealth- | Ummm, I kinda uninstalled a bunch of stuff I shouldn't have, now mplayer and glxinfo segfault.... Anyone know what I uninstalled? | 05:48 |
| hmw | Dead_Pixel: either use an Ubuntu USB thumb drive with partimage or get "clonezilla" live cd | 05:48 |
| Daemonic | ok, so medibuntu gone? | 05:48 |
| Daemonic | is* | 05:48 |
| Dead_Pixel | hmw ok thanks | 05:49 |

| David-A | stealth: there is a history of whats done in synaptic package manager. if you apt-get removed i dont know. there is .bash_history if not too long ago and sudo should have a log, but dont know where and if enabeled by default | 05:50 |
| polydeuces | inglor: Do you know what this means? Verifying archive integrity...Error in MD5 checksums: 8107f5f88b8d807b9f5d3ca11477271f is different from ec01f5c68bf3feb7fa0b00cfe951bb7b | 05:50 |
| MrGoodkat | any decent script/program to convert dts to ac3 in mkvs? | 05:50 |
| MrGoodkat | aften always reports a buffer error | 05:51 |
| puser | Hello, I can't figure out what happened. I get - ping: sendmsg: Operation not permitted, when ping, also, my internet seems to be completley blocked. How do I revert it to default, so that my internet works again? | 05:51 |
| inglor | polydeuces: an MD5 checksum is your program's digital isgnature, since it has a different signature it is assuming it is corrupt | 05:51 |
| polydeuces | Well that's no good! | 05:51 |
| plasmator | Hi, my ubuntu doesn't work can someone help me | 05:51 |
| inglor | polydeuces: yep, and it also means the problem is not with ubuntu, it's with the install file | 05:51 |
| inglor | !ask | 05:52 |
| ubottu | Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 05:52 |
| polydeuces | There are plenty of other Linux/Ubuntu users playing this game... I'm not sure where to get the file, then. | 05:52 |
| polydeuces | Any suggestions? | 05:52 |
| plasmator | Why does my ubuntu look like Windows? | 05:52 |
| inglor | polydeuces: if you want a "dirty" hack around this I can help you, but it's not good education | 05:52 |
| inglor | plasma, what do you mean? | 05:52 |
| NinoScript | what file system is better for handling relatively large files? I'm doing a data-only partition in which I'll put my music/movies, and I sometimes get 5 or 10 GB movies in 1 file | 05:52 |
| inglor | Plasmastar: what do you mean? | 05:52 |
| plasmator | It looks like Windows not Ubuntu | 05:52 |
| polydeuces | Inglor: LOL. How do you mean? And what would be 'good' education? ;) | 05:52 |
| inglor | polydeuces: good education is working md5 sums, bad education means open the file with text editor (gedit) | 05:53 |
| MrGoodkat | plasmator what does look like windows? | 05:53 |
| techhelper1 | hdd + clonezilla = Long Time Crunch | 05:53 |
| MrGoodkat | the desktop/ | 05:53 |
| plasmator | the whole thing looks like windows | 05:53 |
| techhelper1 | I need to run SpinRite | 05:53 |
| inglor | polydeuces: then go to the line that says MD5 = and change it to 8107f5f88b8d807b9f5d3ca11477271f is | 05:53 |
| MrGoodkat | maybe you booted into windows | 05:53 |
| CaptainTrek | perhaps you did boot to windows, plasmator | 05:54 |
| polydeuces | Hm, I'll give it a shot. Thanks inglor! | 05:54 |
| plasmator | it even says 'starting windows' | 05:54 |
| polydeuces | I'll let you know how it goes. | 05:54 |
| techhelper1 | you are booting windows | 05:54 |
| inglor | polydeuces: "8107f5f88b8d807b9f5d3ca11477271f" which is what it outputted, like I said, this is a BAD solution, at least try fetching the file again and see one more time if it works | 05:54 |
| crucialhoax | plasmator: Dude, you are in windows... No worries here. :) | 05:54 |
| techhelper1 | Starting Windows = Windows 7 | 05:54 |
| plasmator | but I installed ubuntu | 05:54 |
| inglor | polydeuces: bad MD5 sum usually means a problem in downloading the file | 05:54 |
| polydeuces | I'll try downloading again, first, then. | 05:54 |
| techhelper1 | did you install the bootloader that came with it | 05:54 |
| techhelper1 | or is that auto now | 05:54 |
| plasmator | what is a bootloader | 05:55 |
| MrGoodkat | if you installed it in addition to windows you have to install the bootloader too | 05:55 |
| crucialhoax | polydeuces: Try redownloading the file and check it again. | 05:55 |
| plasmator | i installed ubuntu | 05:55 |
| plasmator | it said it worked | 05:55 |
| hmw | techhelper1: since when was Ubuntu NOT installing Grub or Grub 2? | 05:55 |
| inglor | plasmator: did you install ubuntu ALONGSIDE windows or INSTEAD OF windows? | 05:55 |
| techhelper1 | plasmator a bootloader manages the 2 installs | 05:55 |
| techhelper1 | meaning you should have the option to choose between the 2 | 05:55 |
| MrGoodkat | plasmator https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBoot | 05:55 |
| plasmator | it gave me a window saying it worked when I installed it though | 05:55 |
| plasmator | I never got a choice | 05:56 |
| inglor | plasmator, did you install ubuntu from within windows by any chance? | 05:56 |
| techhelper1 | when it boots up does it give you the option to push Esc and a countdown | 05:56 |
| polydeuces | inglor: When I try running in terminal, it says "Permission denied." Is there a better way around it than going into properties and manually giving permission? | 05:56 |
| plasmator | it doesn't give me any options it just says starting windows | 05:56 |
| inglor | polydeuces: sudo | 05:57 |
| inglor | !sudo | 05:57 |
| ubottu | sudo is a command to run command-line ( see !cli ) programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE) | 05:57 |
| inglor | and if it's a graphical game use gksudo instead | 05:57 |
| techhelper1 | then you need to install the boot loader, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBoot | 05:57 |
| Tired2 | does ubuntu support magicjack? | 05:57 |
| plasmator | I did install it from inside windows | 05:57 |
| inglor | polydeuces: that makes you run it as the superuser having ''almost'' all permissions | 05:57 |
| plasmator | Firefox specifically | 05:57 |
| polydeuces | okay, I think it's just an install file, though. so do I just do sudo ./DofusInstall.run ? | 05:58 |
| inglor | plasmator, that means you installed wubi and that makes sense | 05:58 |
| plasmator | what is wubi, I think my kid watches that on nickelodeon | 05:58 |
| techhelper1 | did you run wubi? | 05:58 |
| plasmator | oh wait that's wubsy | 05:58 |
| inglor | polydeuces, that should work if I recall, you can also sh ./stuff.run | 05:58 |
| inglor | !wubi | plasmator | 05:58 |
| ubottu | plasmator: Wubi is an Ubuntu installer for Windows users that allows you to install and uninstall Ubuntu like a Windows application, in a simple and safe way. http://wubi-installer.org/support.php and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WubiGuide for troubleshooting. Please file bugs at http://launchpad.net/wubi/+filebug. | 05:58 |
| plasmator | I didn't see anything that said wubi | 05:58 |
| polydeuces | Okay, I'll give it a shot. Thanks Inglor! I'll keep you posted. | 05:58 |
| rafaelsoaresbr | Successfully installed Ubuntu 9.10 here, thank you all! | 05:58 |
| MrGoodkat | wubi sets up the boatloader though | 05:58 |
| techhelper1 | !vm | 05:58 |
| ubottu | There are several solutions for running other operating systems (or their programs) inside Ubuntu, while using the native CPU as much as possible: !QEmu (with !KQemu), !VirtualBox, !VMWare, as well as !WINE and !Cedega for Windows applications | 05:58 |
| inglor | polydeuces: sure | 05:59 |
| MrGoodkat | plasmator how did you install ubuntu? | 05:59 |
| techhelper1 | !vm | plasmator | 05:59 |
| ubottu | plasmator: please see above | 05:59 |
| plasmator | I clicked on ubuntu | 05:59 |
| plasmator | duh | 05:59 |
| MrGoodkat | and then? | 05:59 |
| MrGoodkat | where did you click on ubuntu? | 05:59 |
| MrGoodkat | did you run it from a cd? | 05:59 |
| inglor | MrGoodkat, but I believe that it keeps windows as the default OS meaning when you boot you have to notice ubuntu and choose it | 05:59 |
| plasmator | no from the internet | 05:59 |
| techhelper1 | plasmator did you run wubi or boot from a cd | 05:59 |
| MrGoodkat | how do you install ubuntu from the internet? | 05:59 |
| techhelper1 | wubi meaning did you install it from windows | 05:59 |
| MrGoodkat | you probably only downloaded it | 06:00 |
| techhelper1 | MrGoodkat: Netboot | 06:00 |
| plasmator | I clicked ubuntu and it said it worked | 06:00 |
| polydeuces | Hm, inglor: I'm still getting an error on the checksums. | 06:00 |
| techhelper1 | which let's you download and install using the internet | 06:00 |
| techhelper1 | well did it say that in windows or on the cd, Plasmastar | 06:00 |
| MrGoodkat | techhelper1 netboot doesnt let you install ubuntu via firefox afaik | 06:00 |
| plasmator | why would the cd say something I had no cd | 06:01 |
| inglor | polydeuces, ok, then I guess you can try opening the file with gedit and changing the checksum yourself, maybe they updated the game and forgot to update the checksum | 06:01 |
| techhelper1 | that is true | 06:01 |
| polydeuces | Okay, sounds good. What did you say to change it to? The output? | 06:01 |
| MrGoodkat | plasmator do you have the link you clicked? | 06:01 |
| plasmator | yes | 06:01 |
| techhelper1 | what is that | 06:01 |
| plasmator | ubuntu | 06:01 |
| MrGoodkat | can you post the link here please | 06:01 |
| techhelper1 | ... | 06:01 |
| techhelper1 | what did you download exactly | 06:01 |
| techhelper1 | post that link | 06:02 |
| plasmator | Ubuntu Home Page | 06:02 |
| inglor | polydeuces: try that, it might or might not work depending what the MD5 check is comparing to | 06:02 |
| plasmator | change is coming | 06:02 |
| MrGoodkat | that only downloads ubuntu | 06:02 |
| polydeuces | Will do, thanks again. | 06:02 |
| MrGoodkat | it doesnt install it | 06:02 |
| plasmator | But it said it was successful | 06:02 |
| MrGoodkat | the download was probably successful | 06:02 |
| plasmator | It said ubuntu successful | 06:02 |
| MrGoodkat | that page allows you to download an image which you have to burn on cd | 06:03 |
| plasmator | why do you make it so hard to install ubuntu | 06:03 |
| polydeuces | Hm, inglor: when I try to open it in gedit, I get this error message. gedit has not been able to detect the character coding. | 06:03 |
| polydeuces | Please check that you are not trying to open a binary file. | 06:03 |
| polydeuces | Select a character coding from the menu and try again. | 06:03 |
| MrGoodkat | it even did say it there | 06:03 |
| plasmator | should I try restarting again | 06:03 |
| MrGoodkat | 1. Download Ubuntu 2. Burn your Ubuntu Cd 3. Install Ubuntu | 06:03 |
| inglor | polydeuces, you ARE trying to open a binary file :) hmm, any other editor should work | 06:03 |
| MrGoodkat | you should burn the image you downloaded to a cd | 06:03 |
| polydeuces | ah, I see. Thanks :) | 06:04 |
| MrGoodkat | and then boot your computer with the cd | 06:04 |
| plasmator | burn? | 06:04 |
| inglor | polydeuces: the thing is I looked at the installer and it's part bash and part compiled | 06:04 |
| plasmator | That doesn't sound nice | 06:04 |
| polydeuces | say Hmm... So what does that mean? | 06:04 |
| plasmator | how do i burn images to cds | 06:04 |
| hmw | the ubottu link for rescuing files seems to be quite excellent! thanks! With a little luck I could even get my data back :) | 06:05 |
| ZykoticK9 | plasmator, verify what ISO you are downloading - i DO NOT recommend you install 10.04 (the Change is Coming link), use stable 9.10 instead | 06:05 |
| inglor | polydeuces: that you can open and edit the bash part of it | 06:05 |
| plasmator | what is ISO | 06:05 |
| plasmator | In Search Of? | 06:05 |
| MrGoodkat | plasmator if you are on windows use "nero" | 06:05 |
| polydeuces | I see. Is there a specific editor I should be using? | 06:05 |
| plasmator | hero? | 06:05 |
| plasmator | oh nero | 06:05 |
| plasmator | what is nero | 06:05 |
| inglor | gconf should work but any other editor should work as well | 06:05 |
| MrGoodkat | a program that allows you to burn ubuntu on a cd | 06:05 |
| plasmator | why does ubuntu just not do that though | 06:05 |
| MrGoodkat | maybe you should stay with windows though ;) | 06:06 |
| MrGoodkat | ubuntu does that too | 06:06 |
| plasmator | are you patronizing me mrgoodkat | 06:06 |
| polydeuces | Okay, I'll give that a go | 06:06 |
| MrGoodkat | but you dont have ubuntu installed yet | 06:06 |
| inglor | plasmator, I suggest that you get help from your local ubuntu community, ubuntu is not hard to use for people with computing experience, but if you don't know computing basics | 06:06 |
| MrGoodkat | so you have to go with what windows offers | 06:06 |
| kman | Zen. tyvm. My system is up and running again. | 06:06 |
| plasmator | where do i find my 'local ubuntu community' is there a secret handshake or something | 06:07 |
| inglor | plasmator, I'm sure your local community can guide you through the installation process and can probably help you get used to ubuntu. you'll probably even find it easier to use eventually | 06:07 |
| hmw | a nice burning program for windows is "Deep Burner PORTABLE" to be downloaded from www.portableapps.com | 06:07 |
| inglor | plasmator, well if you tell us where you live we can find it for you, or you can use the internet | 06:07 |
| kman | And thanks to the others that helped as well. | 06:07 |
| plasmator | the internet has been no help thus far, it told me ubuntu successful even though it apparently wasn't | 06:07 |
| MrGoodkat | plasmator https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LoCoTeamList | 06:07 |
| geekphreak | kman: how did it go? | 06:07 |
| MrGoodkat | a list of the communities | 06:07 |
| geekphreak | kman: good news :) | 06:08 |
| numen | hi | 06:08 |
| numen | i have problem with ubuntu 9.1 | 06:08 |
| inglor | !ask | numan | 06:08 |
| ubottu | numan: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 06:08 |
| pepee | hmw, use infrarecorder | 06:08 |
| polydeuces | Hey inglor, where can I get gconf? | 06:08 |
| numen | inglor just wait, im writing^^ | 06:08 |
| plasmator | What is with the community thing | 06:08 |
| kman | I ran the sue apt-get update. this game me an error but a suggestion to run another apt-get command. Ran it and voila I'm back up and running. | 06:08 |
| inglor | polydeuces: gedit I meant -_- | 06:08 |
| plasmator | is Ubuntu some communist thing? | 06:08 |
| red2kic | plasmator: Stick with Windows. That toy is tainted for terrible trolls. | 06:09 |
| techhelper1 | yes | 06:09 |
| numen | when i watch a movie or listen to musik on x, sound is very bad | 06:09 |
| polydeuces | Oh, I can't open it via gedit for some reason. Is there something I have to do? | 06:09 |
| numen | but when i switch to shell, sound is good, but still running in x | 06:09 |
| * sinistrad smells a troll | 06:09 | |
| techhelper1 | plasmator you forgot to install the bootloader that was all | 06:09 |
| numen | it is an nforce4 board with enabled 5.1 sound | 06:09 |
| kman | Thanks geek. Now it;s time for bed. | 06:09 |
| numen | i use pulseaudio | 06:09 |
| geekphreak | kman: great | 06:09 |
| MrGoodkat | techhelper1 it sounds like he only downloaded it | 06:09 |
| numen | where could be the problem? | 06:09 |
| MrGoodkat | he said he didnt burn a cd | 06:09 |
| DankNugs | together we stand; divided we fall. communist = good. poor troll. | 06:10 |
| techhelper1 | did get get a iso file | 06:10 |
| kman | Have a good night. you guys are great. | 06:10 |
| techhelper1 | on his computer | 06:10 |
| inglor | maybe gedit is just being annoying, try to open it with vi | 06:10 |
| polydeuces | vi? | 06:10 |
| plasmator | sorry guys, I couldn't resist. :) | 06:10 |
| inglor | plasmator, you should've at least been funnier | 06:10 |
| red2kic | polydeuces: Use nano instead. It is more *comfortable* for beginners. | 06:10 |
| MrGoodkat | numen have you tried to kill pulseaudio before you start the music? | 06:10 |
| * plasmator has been using Linux for 15 years :P | 06:10 | |
| inglor | yeah, I guess nano is easier | 06:10 |
| polydeuces | Okay, I'll give it a shot | 06:10 |
| hmw | those illegal communist <strike>operating</strike> hacker systems will crush civilization, beware! | 06:11 |
| plasmator | inglor: Yeah but there's that fine line between funny and unbelievable | 06:11 |
| DankNugs | vi > yuo | 06:11 |
| numen | MrGoodkat then i have no sound | 06:11 |
| plasmator | If the communist thing would have taken off, it would have been good | 06:11 |
| MrGoodkat | numen pulseaudio restarts on its own | 06:11 |
| numen | you mean with pulseauido -k ? | 06:11 |
| polydeuces | red2kic, is it NEdit? | 06:11 |
| hmw | plasmator: trolling is always failing. find a better hobby. Perhaps build your own Linux? www.linuxfromscratch.org | 06:12 |
| MrGoodkat | killall pulseaudio should do it | 06:12 |
| red2kic | polydeuces: nano. If you want GUI, use gedit. I like geany myself. :3 | 06:12 |
| plasmator | hmw: been there done that man | 06:12 |
| hmw | do it again :) | 06:12 |
| polydeuces | where do I get these? | 06:12 |
| plasmator | before linuxfromscratch.org was around, even :) | 06:12 |
| polydeuces | do I just sudo apt-get install ? | 06:12 |
| numen | MrGoodkat the strange thing is, that sound becomes good, when i switch to shell | 06:12 |
| plasmator | eh, some trolls are bad but mine was all in good fun | 06:13 |
| hmw | plasmator: well.. in this case, try to send some positive karma waves into my hard drive in order to get it revived. | 06:13 |
| red2kic | polydeuces: Meh. I only offered you an alternative. I'm not sure what you're trying to do. Do this -- "gedit /name/of/file/troll.txt" or something similar. | 06:13 |
| plasmator | what's up with your hdd, hmw? | 06:13 |
| DankNugs | if you're in root shell no need for sudo | 06:13 |
| inglor | polydeuces: you just type sudo nano yourfile.run | 06:13 |
| hmw | plasmator: it died for apparently no reason. | 06:13 |
| plasmator | what brand? | 06:13 |
| inglor | it's a text line editor, looks old but because it is old it is stupid :P | 06:13 |
| hmw | maxtor. not a hardware failure, it seems. | 06:14 |
| bscape | hi, for some reason whenever i use xsetbg it puts up the image. but then when i reboot the image goes away, does anyone know why it does that? i'm running ion3 on 9.10 minimal install | 06:14 |
| polydeuces | Ah, THERE we go | 06:14 |
| plasmator | maxtor is one to steer clear of, how are you defining hardware failure? | 06:14 |
| hmw | plasmator: it doesnt show IO errors. Perhaps a bad cable or something, but not really "damaged"... scanning it right now, in hope of getting the partition back | 06:15 |
| red2kic | hmw: By the way, hard drives are the most instable computing device in the machines. That's why servers regularly make backups. | 06:15 |
| inglor | yeah, hard drives are just so unreliable -_- | 06:15 |
| plasmator | HDDs and Power supplies are the most likely to fail, moving parts. | 06:16 |
| DankNugs | too bad there are some upsides to flash :/ | 06:16 |
| numen | why not use ssds? | 06:16 |
| plasmator | hmw: You just lost partition and that was it? | 06:16 |
| inglor | plasmator: thing is you can get good power supplies that rarely fail but good hdds also fail pretty bad -_- | 06:16 |
| plasmator | inglor: true | 06:16 |
| hmw | red2kic: last time i actually lost data was on my 486 with a 800 MB HD. THis time I only lost a lot of videos. I know that I want to do backup regularly. plasmator: i suddenly noticed, that some bookmarks had disappeared and then I found my drive in a deep identity crisis. | 06:17 |
| polydeuces | inglor: once I'm done editing the file in nano, how do I save/exit? | 06:17 |
| geekphreak | polydeuces: ctrl+x to exit | 06:17 |
| inglor | ctl+x | 06:18 |
| WXZ | first day using, I accidentally removed the equivalent of the "system tray" | 06:18 |
| nomad77 | hmw: i've used testdidk,not infallable but works a lot | 06:18 |
| plasmator | hmw: well when you replace it, try seagate or hitachi ultrastar. Seagate had issues last year but they're still among the best. | 06:18 |
| WXZ | how do I get it back on the panel? | 06:18 |
| hmw | polydeuces: press CTRL+X (eXit) then Y ("Yes, write") and ENTER. Look at the bootom of your screen to understand the menu. | 06:18 |
| nomad77 | hmw: sorry typo testdisk | 06:18 |
| polydeuces | Got it, thanks! | 06:18 |
| inglor | polydeuces: well, does it install? | 06:18 |
| polydeuces | inglor: don't know yet, trying in a moment | 06:19 |
| David-A | hmw: my harddrives usually lives 1-5 years. currently have maxtor that have worked well for more than 3 years now. | 06:19 |
| hmw | nomad77: i am running gpart right now. perhaps i'll try the other programs, too. GOt a nice link from ubottu to a nice page with fool-proof instructions. | 06:19 |
| inglor | WXZ, the top or bottom panel? | 06:19 |
| aetaric | !ot | 06:19 |
| ubottu | #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 06:19 |
| numen | i think, on harddisks, the manufacturer is not the most important | 06:19 |
| numen | each one has bad series | 06:19 |
| hmw | aetaric is right, we're getting off-topic. | 06:20 |
| red2kic | !panels | WXZ | 06:20 |
| ubottu | WXZ: To reset the gnome panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » | 06:20 |
| polydeuces | Hmm, inglor: it seems to have compromised the .run filetype once I did that | 06:20 |
| polydeuces | I tried 'sh ./stuff.run' and it called me stupid. | 06:21 |
| inglor | polydeuces: what error? | 06:21 |
| hmw | anyone used gpart to find "lost" partitions before? I would have expected almost immediate results, since there is (was) only one partition on the drive - or will it show the result only after scanning the whole drive? | 06:21 |
| polydeuces | LOL. | 06:21 |
| polydeuces | Hang on. | 06:21 |
| polydeuces | sh: can't open DofusInstall.run | 06:21 |
| red2kic | !recovery | hmw | 06:21 |
| ubottu | hmw: To rescue a broken system, boot the alternate install CD and select "Rescue a broken system" | 06:21 |
| red2kic | hmw: Meh. That is not it. | 06:21 |
| MrGoodkat | any way to convert dts to ac3 in mkvs? would be great if it were a one step script or program | 06:22 |
| pepee | hmw, use cfdis | 06:22 |
| pepee | *cfdisk | 06:22 |
| MrGoodkat | and not many steps | 06:22 |

| proq | can someone point me to a list of what packages to remove to remove gnome? I don't have a server CD handy and I need to strip down my system for quick running on virtualbox | 06:22 |
| inglor | polydeuces: so rename it and then run it :P | 06:22 |
| chelz | hmw: if you give it a range it'll work faster | 06:23 |
| hmw | red2kic: this page does not answer my question, it only gives instructions on how to use it. I want to know, if I should let it run for hours or if I already could deduce, that it wont work | 06:23 |
| polydeuces | I did, it didn't work. | 06:23 |
| polydeuces | It wouldn't even let me change the permissions on it | 06:23 |
| boblemur | proq: do you still need X? | 06:23 |
| red2kic | proq: "aptitude show ubuntu-desktop" --- That would be a good start. | 06:23 |
| boblemur | proq: because if you dont then you can just remove the X server and this will drop ubuntu back to cli, perhaps installing the server version or the mini iso's might also be a good idea if you want a lean ubuntu | 06:24 |
| inglor | polydeuces: the thing is the script is made with Makeself, if you had the sourcecode you could compile it nicely yourself, but since it is 2 files combined I'm not really sure | 06:24 |
| red2kic | hmw: The best bet is to dd your "damaged" partition/hdd to external HDD or such. Then you could run any tests on it. You're just copying the hard drive (binaries) in a nutshell. | 06:25 |
| polydeuces | Hm, I think I understand. I'll see if I can hunt around on the forums for a solution. | 06:25 |
| polydeuces | thanks for all your helpful advice, though :) | 06:25 |
| inglor | what you get is the "Error in MD5 checksums: $md5sum is different from $md5" | 06:25 |
| sobczyk | hi, is there a way to set separate wallpapers on a streched desktop? (2 monitors having different resolution) | 06:25 |
| hmw | red2kic: Nope. 1TB --> 250 GB situation. Thanks, though. | 06:25 |
| red2kic | sobczyk: Use GIMP to combine images? :( | 06:26 |
| inglor | polydeuces: see, I think that what's messing with it is the documentation they added themselves :P | 06:26 |
| sobczyk | red2kic, I hoped someone wrote a siple ap :( | 06:26 |
| hmw | sobczyk: not without heavy tweaking of gnome/nautilus (perhaps compiling stuff on your own) | 06:26 |
| polydeuces | inglor: how do you mean? they intentionally make it not work? | 06:26 |
| inglor | polydeuces: you can always run it under wine if you want | 06:26 |
| hmw | sobczyk: perhaps you can find a way to get the wallpaper stretch over 2 screens and make an accordingly larger one | 06:27 |
| inglor | polydeuces: not intentionally, by mistake... | 06:27 |
| red2kic | hmw: "sudo blkid" -- See if it recognize the filesystem (at least). | 06:27 |
| sobczyk | and is there a way to read both monitors setup? (x, y coordinates and width height) | 06:27 |
| inglor | polydeuces: if you don't want to mess with it too much you can always run it under wine | 06:27 |
| polydeuces | inglor: I haven't used wine yet, would I have to do it every time? | 06:27 |
| inglor | polydeuces: all wine does is translate directX and win32 commands to openGL , so it doesn't slow stuff | 06:27 |
| sobczyk | it would be possible to write a scipr using imagemgic to combine 2 wallpapers, if monitor position data could be obtained | 06:27 |
| red2kic | sobczyk: Write a script. :) Personally, I find GIMP nice and easy to use. | 06:28 |
| inglor | it lets you run windows apps on linux without an emulator | 06:28 |
| David-A | hmw: if you use a rescue program that finds and copies individual files, will they fit in 250GB? (that is was the 1TB less than 25% full?) | 06:28 |
| inglor | (hence the name... Wine Is Not an Emulator) | 06:28 |
| hmw | lol. no. it was like 95% full... | 06:28 |
| polydeuces | Oh, neato. Hm, perhaps I'll give that a shot. Thanks for the advice! | 06:28 |
| hmw | i alredy swallowed the loss. just trying, perhaps I get lucky. | 06:29 |
| zch3 | Does anyone know why I cant download " tor tor-geoipdb" using the co'?mmand 'sudo apt-get install tor-geoipdb | 06:29 |
| inglor | polydeuces: just installed your dofus game in wine to see if it works and it works perfectly | 06:29 |
| red2kic | sobczyk: I don't know the correct way to retrieve x,y,blah,blah but "xrandr | grep \*" could do it. I'm not sure about the second monitor (or even if it's showing up in xrandr too). | 06:29 |

| polydeuces | awesome, thanks! | 06:32 |
| proq | boblemur: yes, thanks. I need X and I will be running ratpoison | 06:34 |
| David-A | hmw: 95% full means there might be fragmentation, so rescue programs that finds individual files has less chans of finding all files. | 06:35 |
| red2kic | hmw: NTFS? | 06:36 |
| hmw | David-A: since I only collected movies and didnt move/delete much stuff, i doubt it will be fragmented massively. NTFS. | 06:36 |
| red2kic | hmw: You're a good person. Making legal backup of your shiny movies you bought. Also, NTFS = Fragmentation. One of the good ways to corrupt the partition is to max out the hard drive. Just because you have 1TB does not mean you have 1TB... Very much less. | 06:38 |
| xiven | How come the tutorial for setting up polymer theme on ubuntuforums.com doesn't match the qt config program? | 06:39 |
| hmw | red2kic: indeed, i own most of the movies. I always rip them to divx after i found a cheap DVD in the store and never use the DVDs to watch them. sic! | 06:39 |

| David-A | hmw: i must go and rest. the robots first link, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DataRecovery , seems to me to have good info. hope it works out well for you. | 06:40 |
| red2kic | spat: It is more of preferences. apt or aptitude or synapthic or Ubuntu Software Center -- They all will get the job done. | 06:40 |
| hmw | spat: apt and aptitude are cool for the command line, aptitude also has some UI | 06:40 |
| lisa__ | i know it's a stupid question | 06:40 |
| hmw | David-A thanks. Good night! | 06:40 |
| spat | hmw: I'm a server admin,,, | 06:40 |
| hmw | spat: it is a matter of taste, i'd say. Aptitude might make finding stuff easier, but you'd need to know the shortcuts. | 06:41 |
| spat | hmw: as long as they both work consistend and reliable | 06:41 |
| David-A | hmw: youre welcome, byebye | 06:41 |

| shazbotmcnasty | well you can google raptor, I just got an ad from newegg a few days ago for that hdd | 07:02 |
| aetaric | tomato: it is only in the standard, you could use cat3 really, they just want you to use cat6. | 07:03 |
| aetaric | it has "better quality wires" | 07:03 |
| tomato | gotcha, thanks | 07:03 |
| boblemur | chripher: what are you using to host your svn? and what is the message it gives you (if its not too long to paste that is) | 07:03 |
| chripher | localhost and I do not get any error it just asks again and again | 07:04 |
| tomato | aetaric so it's normal to get 10 megabytes per second instead of 100 megabytes per second? i was hoping for something around the middle, like 50 megabytes per second | 07:04 |
| aetaric | tomato: as a side note, i've never seen 1GB/s on my network and it is all Cisco catalyst equiptment. | 07:04 |
| boblemur | chripher: so why are you using http:// to connect to localhost? you can just use svn co /path/to/svn/repo | 07:04 |
| aetaric | tomato: well how many hosts are there on the switch? | 07:05 |
| tomato | yeah, i understand i won't be getting 100 megabytes per second, but i was hoping for half that | 07:05 |
| tomato | only 2, my nas (dns323) and my ubuntu server | 07:05 |
| aetaric | tomato: both have gigabit cards? | 07:05 |
| chripher | boblemur: I plan to setup svn on another server but I use localhost now | 07:05 |

| Daemonic | I like tunafish | 07:06 |
| boblemur | chripher: ok, well will you have ssh for that server? | 07:06 |

| boblemur | chripher: cause if you do... try svn+ssh://localhost/path/to/svn/repo | 07:07 |
| tomato | aetaric: okay thanks, that might be it, the dns323 is just a nas, might be overloaded | 07:07 |

| steven__ | tthat cool | 07:41 |
| rocket16 | I heard the Nautilus takes less than 50 MB on people's PCs, but why is it taking so much memory in my case? I tried to kill and restart the process, but it is always nearly 110MB | 07:42 |
| steven__ | drd: i makeing a new OS do you know some you like to have on it | 07:42 |

| theadmin | rocket16: Yeah, you might wanna try Lubuntu when it's out or Xubuntu. | 07:43 |
| rocket16 | clarkb: No, I would like to stick to GNOME, and Ubuntu, because I tried LXDE, Xfce and many others, (even other Distors), but none of them suites my needs | 07:43 |
| rocket16 | theadmin: Sorry, but Ubuntu is my first and foremost preference, :( And I run Kubuntu on my 8GB Desktop | 07:44 |
| clarkb | rocket16: then Isuggest a hardware upgrade | 07:44 |
| theadmin | rocket16: Then maybe use another filemanager?... Altough Nautilus is responsible for desktop icons :/ | 07:44 |
| clarkb | theadmin: I dont think you can have gnome without nautilus | 07:44 |
| rocket16 | theadmin: I tried PCMan and Thunar, but that rips the heart of GNOME, and makes it more Xfce like, :( | 07:45 |

| rocket16 | Is 110 MB for Nautilus normal | 07:51 |
| clarkb | shreymech: yup | 07:51 |
| theadmin | shreymech: Yes, the software they provide is mainly for Windows computers | 07:51 |
| clarkb | ubuntu should automagically mount it for you someplace like /media | 07:51 |
| clarkb | it may also be worth nuking the default ntfs partition it ships with... | 07:52 |
| theadmin | clarkb: ...why? Better windows compatibility | 07:53 |

| Saudrapsmann | I tried notification-properties and looked in gconf-editor, but they must have taken out notification-properties for Jaunty? | 08:18 |
| Saudrapsmann | err Karmic* | 08:18 |
| smokex | kk | 08:18 |
| Saudrapsmann | and apps -> notification-daemon only has one line "Theme - Standard" | 08:19 |
| chripher | boblemur: you there? | 08:19 |
| NetmanDH | Hi - i'm new to this - and i'm after a little ubuntu support - can anyone help? | 08:21 |
| theadmin | NetmanDH: Yep | 08:21 |
| quibbler | !ask | NemanDH | 08:22 |
| ubottu | NemanDH: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 08:22 |
| NetmanDH | I just took over an Ubuntu 8.10 server which has FatClients and how do i manage the users - iff i do AddUser they appear in passwd, but they can't log on...the server is in a bit of a mess! | 08:24 |
| geekphreak | NetmanDH: how are they trying to login ? | 08:25 |
| NetmanDH | via the client - this was all set up before i arrived. Current users within the passwd file can log on, but no added ones! | 08:26 |
| geekphreak | NetmanDH: which client, putty? | 08:27 |
| dekroning | since i don't have a Xorg config, is there a way to dump the current Xorg config? | 08:28 |
| geekphreak | NetmanDH: which client, it could be using other mechanism | 08:29 |
| NetmanDH | No, ubuntu, they are fat clients running over the network. Sorry if i'm not being too clear, i'm a windows network expert - not ubuntu. | 08:29 |
| geekphreak | no worries | 08:29 |
| blkperl | no bad flash, crashed my google chrome | 08:29 |
| geekphreak | NetmanDH: what kinda of server is it ? | 08:30 |
| NetmanDH | Ubuntu 8.10. there seems to be PAM authentication as well as LTSP and numerous other cr*p on there too. | 08:31 |
| NetmanDH | I don't want to do a nice reboot just yet, just in case it all goes pear-shaped! | 08:31 |

| TyanColte | anybody know why when i attempt to go into hibernate it says cannot find swap header? | 08:38 |
| Saudrapsmann | Okay I figured out that the space between the panel and most notifications are reserved for notifications like volume control, but how do I get them all in the same place? Gconf-editor proved useless | 08:39 |
| aroni125 | Tyan: do you have a swap partition? | 08:39 |
| datune | Hello. After installing Ubuntu Server 10.04 Beta2, I tried running apt-get install vim-full, but get : E: Couldn't find package vim-full. All available repositories are uncommented. Do I have to add another repo? | 08:40 |
| Gryllida | TyanColte: maybe this? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-power-manager/+bug/313724/comments/6 | 08:40 |
| TyanColte | yep, i just extended via the instructions on wubi's website | 08:40 |
| Peddy | Can I set a different wallpaper for each monitor with dual monitors? | 08:40 |
| rww | datune: Lucid/10.04 discussion and support is in #ubuntu+1 | 08:41 |
| datune | rww: Thanks. | 08:41 |
| rww | datune: I'm guessing you haven't done "sudo apt-get update", but if that doesn't work, ask the people over there :) | 08:41 |
| TyanColte | cuz before it said swapspace too small | 08:41 |
| datune | rww: of course I did that ;-) | 08:41 |
| rww | datune: you'd be surprised how many people don't :( | 08:41 |
| TyanColte | so i extended it and now it says swap header not found | 08:41 |
| datune | rww: I can imagine ;-) | 08:41 |
| TyanColte | Gryllida: and that bug gives no resolution | 08:42 |
| Xeross_ | Can anyone put up a default ttyX.conf on a pastebin so I can restore mine and remove this autologin | 08:43 |
| Gryllida | TyanColte: sure thing, it is not fixed yet, I run out of ideas on whether it is possible to workaround your problem | 08:44 |
| aroni125 | datune: vim-full doesn't exist in lucid's repository. | 08:44 |
| Gla | hey guys, I'd like to setup a proxy for port 800, so that wheneve connect to anything on port 800 it redirects me to a proxy server. #1 what would I need to do on the client side, and #2 what would I need to do as the proxy server. | 08:44 |
| ezrafree | any ideas how to use vga font in eterm in ubuntu? | 08:45 |
| amos81 | Xeross_: http://pastebin.org/158699 | 08:45 |

| tony_mahoon | hey guys im trying to upgrade to desktop from server from 9.10 | 08:45 |
| Xeross_ | datune: Ah thanks | 08:45 |
| tony_mahoon | im getting weird errors when i do a sudo apt-get install gnome | 08:45 |
| rww | datune: vim-full is a transitional package for vim-gnome. Install vim-gnome instead | 08:46 |
| rww | tony_mahoon: you want ubuntu-desktop, not gnome. | 08:46 |
| Gryllida | tony_mahoon: pastebin them? | 08:46 |
| datune | rww: On Ubuntu SERVER, I need to isntqall vim-gnome? | 08:46 |
| tony_mahoon | rww: cheers mate, i knew there was a meta package, i just couldnt work out what it was called! | 08:46 |
| rww | datune: oh, vi-full, not vim-full, sorry. I'm an idiot :) | 08:46 |
| tony_mahoon | Gryllida: I think rww has solved my problem cheers anyway | 08:46 |
| Gryllida | tony_mahoon: ok | 08:47 |
| ezrafree | i'm trying to make it so the ANSI art in my epic theme will display properly | 08:47 |
| kumar-kle | can anybody help me with bundle script | 08:47 |
| Gryllida | kumar-kle, where are you running it aand what for | 08:47 |
| TyanColte | bump lol | 08:47 |
| NetmanDH | I have an Ubuntu 8.10 server where the people logon via Fat Clients (no HD). They're all in the passwd file, but when i add another via adduser, they can't logon - any ideas. There seems to be PAM authentication and LTSM as well as lots to other rubbish on there | 08:47 |
| rww | wait, no, you said vim-full | 08:47 |
| rafaelsoaresbr | Gla, do you mean a tranparent proxy? | 08:47 |
| azlon | how can i list my drives? | 08:47 |
| Gryllida | azlon: open Nautilus? | 08:48 |
| azlon | i tried df but it doesnt display all of my drives | 08:48 |
| Gryllida | hm | 08:48 |
| perhamlinux | ezrafree: try eterm -F vga | 08:48 |
| TyanColte | anybody know how to replace cube gears in compiz-fusion with another 3d image? | 08:48 |
| Gryllida | azlon, which ones does it noe show? | 08:48 |
| rww | datune: vim-full has been a transitional package for vim-gnome since hardy, and the versions before that had gnome-support built in. So yes, if you've been using vim-full, you should be using vim-gnome instead. | 08:48 |
| kumar-kle | what exactly bundle script is used for | 08:48 |
| azlon | Gryllida: im trying to grow my RAID and i just installed 2 more 1TB drives but I don't see them in the "df" list | 08:48 |
| datune | rww: Ok, thanks. I'll try that | 08:48 |
| Flannel | datune: on a CLI-only, you just want to install "vim" | 08:48 |
| Gryllida | azlon: tried reboot? | 08:49 |
| azlon | Gryllida: yep | 08:49 |
| rww | datune: there are also vim and vim-nox, which might be more suited to you. | 08:49 |
| datune | Flannel: Oh, thanks. | 08:49 |
| aroni125 | azlon: mounted drives? mount | 08:49 |

| tripleb | is there an APE music player? how to compare APE and FLAC | 08:51 |
| azlon | Gryllida: hrmm... ok, how can i find them? | 08:51 |
| azlon | Gryllida: hold on... let me try a couple things | 08:51 |
| Gryllida | tripleb, 'how to compare APE and FLAC' -are these file formats or application names? | 08:52 |
| aroni125 | mount by itself should list every mounted filesystem. | 08:52 |
| Gryllida | aroni125, how to do a mount? | 08:52 |
| manohar | how can i share my internet bandwidth to different programs? | 08:52 |
| perhamlinux | tripleb: you should compare them by size, both are lossless codecs, so no difference in quality | 08:53 |
| azlon | aroni125: ok, i see the drives... i think... | 08:53 |
| s73v3r | did something happen in 9.10 with regards to ac3 support and mplayer? I'm trying to convert an ac3 file into an m4a file | 08:53 |
| azlon | aroni125: sda and sdb | 08:53 |
| azlon | aroni125: looks like it just shifted all my other drives down 2 letters | 08:53 |
| perhamlinux | manohar: what do you mean exactly? your bandwidth is shared by default to all running processes | 08:54 |
| ezrafree | perhamlinux: i'm getting the error that: Eterm: Error: Unable to load font "vga". Falling back on "fixed" | 08:54 |
| tripleb | is there an APE music player? how to compare APE and FLAC --- Thanks but I found it in Ubuntu forums AND Gryllida FLAC is a music file format. It is the lossless opensource file forrmat that I know of. perhamlinux TY too. The link is http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=344331 | 08:54 |

| manohar | perhamlinux: when i download anything other sites dont open | 08:55 |
| manohar | perhamlinux: when i download anything other sites dont open | 08:55 |
| perhamlinux | manohar: how about caping your download speed? are you using a download manager or firefox's default? | 08:56 |
| manohar | perhamlinux: firefox default | 08:57 |
| Gryllida | manohar, try firefox safe mode, will your issue remain? | 08:57 |
| Gryllida | manohar, Safe Mode (in supported Mozilla applications) is a good way to see if an add-on, theme or something else is causing a problem. Please see: http://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode | 08:57 |
| david_brent | hi, im drawing with my tablet and gimp kinda lags while drawing the lines, i'm wondering are there any other apps i dont know about that support tablets and are nice for drawing painting (maybe alog the lines of corel painter) ? | 08:58 |
| perhamlinux | manohar: sudo apt-get install d4x , and then install flashgot addon for firefox | 08:58 |
| ezrafree | nice thank you perhamlinux, got it :) | 08:58 |
| manohar | perhamlinux: i have d4x already installed | 08:58 |
| gheddy_zarc | does Wicd replace Network Manager in 9.04 I installed it now NM is gone | 08:58 |
| perhamlinux | manohar: then you can download with D4x and use different speed schemes | 08:58 |
| perhamlinux | ezrafree: you're welcome ;) | 08:59 |
| semanticpc | how do i use find on a folder name with a space ? | 08:59 |
| hateball | semanticpc: -print0 | 08:59 |
| aroni125 | azlon: those device files are automatically generated, so the drives shifting device files is possible. Unformatted drives do not show up in df or mount. Are they formatted? | 08:59 |
| azlon | aroni125: formatting them now | 09:00 |
| manohar | perhamlinux: i use the same method for most downloads but when i update my system with update manager then too it takes all bandwidth | 09:00 |
| semanticpc | hateball: find -print() /folder name -name 'pattern' ????? | 09:00 |
| manohar | perhamlinux: it is not that downloads from firefox is causing problem. it is happening when i install through apt-get install. this also takes all bandwidth | 09:02 |

| avelldiroll | semanticpc, find folder\ name ... | 09:05 |
| the-erm | what if he's running windows :) | 09:05 |
| the-erm | I guess I'll have him run the live CD. | 09:05 |

| perhamlinux | manohar: then you can use Options -> Speed to set speed limit on your downloads | 09:15 |
| avelldiroll | semanticpc, not a solution for your question ... but have you considered find ... -exec ... ? | 09:15 |
| manohar | perhamlinux: but i have problem when i update packages using update manager or i also hav problem when installing softwares using apt-get install command | 09:16 |

| semanticpc | avelldiroll: got it thanks ..... just one last thing i would like to redirect the output to a file for each iteration ..... is it possible | 09:25 |
| avelldiroll | chripher, it would be easier to give an answer if you point out exactly what your problem is with this guide | 09:26 |
| the-erm | nexsja thanks for telling me about unetbootin | 09:26 |

| slckb0y | hi everyone :) is someone running KDE in a virtualbox under win7 ? :) i can't seem to use OpenGL for desktop effect even if i installed guest additions :/ | 09:38 |
| chripher | avelldiroll: did you get my problem | 09:38 |
| datune | rww: Thanks again! | 09:39 |
| avelldiroll | chripher, I don't see where the problem is in the instructions ... sorry | 09:39 |
| Oer | slckb0y, Vbox does not support 3d | 09:40 |
| Oer | only software rendering | 09:40 |
| chripher | avelldiroll: when I try to checkout it does not accept my pass | 09:40 |
| slckb0y | it does since sometimes already, it work with compiz and quake, just not with KDE destop effect in fact | 09:40 |
| felixM | perhamlinux: thanks, but i dont think thats my kind of problem because i cant get a connection at all. | 09:40 |
| Oer | oh here it does not :( | 09:41 |
| perhamlinux | felixM: have you tried wicd? | 09:41 |
| avelldiroll | chripher, did you try using htpasswd2 instead of htpasswd to create them ? (not sure if that would change anything though) | 09:41 |
| felixM | perhamlinux: not yet, trying now | 09:41 |
| pjfry1 | I tried using xvidcap and it works but the colors are messed up, is there a way to fix this | 09:42 |
| chripher | avelldiroll: what is htpasswd2? | 09:42 |
| avelldiroll | chripher, htpasswd2 is htpasswd for apache2 ... i beleive | 09:43 |
| chripher | ah | 09:43 |
| chripher | so should I write htpasswd2 when I crearte ? eg sudo htpasswd2 -c /etc/subversion/passwd user_name | 09:45 |
| avelldiroll | chripher, that's what i would suggest, yes | 09:45 |
| chripher | avelldiroll: why does not the guide say so then | 09:46 |
| avelldiroll | chripher, because it's a work in progress :) | 09:46 |
| chripher | avelldiroll: sudo: htpasswd2: command not found | 09:47 |
| geekphreak | chripher: for setting htaccess and htpasswd? | 09:49 |
| chripher | ??? | 09:49 |
| geekphreak | chripher: in regards to your above htpasswd2 : command not found emssage | 09:50 |
| avelldiroll | chripher, my mistake ... htpasswd2 became htpasswd when apache2 became default | 09:50 |
| === Cain` is now known as Cain | ||
| chripher | ah | 09:50 |
| chripher | avelldiroll: so we still have same problem | 09:51 |

| Jimi_Neutral | Hi Guys.....quick question.....I have apache2 installed as I am running a webserver. WHen I look in system processes how many 'Apache2' instances should be running? | 10:03 |
| G_A_C | depends on the webserver load IIRC | 10:03 |
| ikonia | Jimi_Neutral: look in the apache config, it's normally about 5 for a non-busy server | 10:03 |
| G_A_C | by default I think it's something like one for every connection and 5 spare | 10:04 |
| ikonia | Jimi_Neutral: the config file tells you how many to start at boot time | 10:04 |
| chripher | avelldiroll: back | 10:04 |
| Jimi_Neutral | I see because I have many running and many sleeping and this thing aint even live yet apart from on our internal network | 10:04 |
| chripher | avelldiroll: yes I have logged out and in | 10:04 |
| ikonia | Jimi_Neutral: that's fine | 10:04 |
| nexsja | hello, i've got a small issue with c/c++ compiler here. I've installed build-essential and libc6-dev, and whenever i try to compile by code it says that iostream/stdio is missing, though locate says that it's in this /usr/include/c++/4.4/iostream dir | 10:04 |
| ikonia | nexsja: look at the path's in your code to the includes | 10:05 |
| avelldiroll | chripher, i reread the wiki and did not find any problem ... i did not have time to test it though ... | 10:05 |
| Jimi_Neutral | ikonia, also my CPU is running at 99% near on. I noticed it when i tried to check the website this morning nothing loaded, well ti did but took ages, checked the sys monitor and the cpu is at 99% | 10:05 |
| nexsja | ikonia, i have to supply the paths? i though i can just use #include <iostream> and it will work. | 10:05 |
| chripher | avelldiroll: oaky | 10:05 |
| geekphreak | ikonia: howdy :) | 10:05 |
| chripher | avelldiroll: do you know the writer | 10:05 |
| ikonia | Jimi_Neutral: see what is using up the cpu | 10:05 |
| nexsja | ikonia, i need to do #include </usr/include/c++/4.4/iostream> ? | 10:05 |
| ikonia | nexsja: depends on how your development environment is setup | 10:05 |
| Jimi_Neutral | ikonia, how can i see what is specifically using it | 10:05 |
| ikonia | Jimi_Neutral: a tool such as "top" can be useful | 10:06 |
| nexsja | ikonia, i guess it's not set up at all :/ could you guide me a bit here? | 10:06 |
| ikonia | Jimi_Neutral: what version of ubuntu are you running | 10:06 |
| Jimi_Neutral | ikonia, damn now its dropped right down...thats just weird. Ok I will look for that tool...and im running karmic | 10:06 |

| ActionParsnip | Peddy: not sure, I don't use dual monitors. You could if you had 2 seperate x servers but the large image in my view is far easier | 10:52 |

| Lazy^ | any clue, i haven't seen this error ever... and it seems that it's not a bug or anything | 11:11 |

| brianherman | Vishal: This channel is for ubuntu questions | 11:13 |
| mcl0vin_ | is there is a way i can change how remix menu style | 11:14 |
| ActionParsnip | Paul3333: I didn't know you could stop a partition | 11:14 |
| Oer | Lazy^, does this command solve your problem ? terminal> sudo dpkg --configure -a | 11:14 |
| paul3333 | ActionParsnip: not sure it's called stop, but there was a command so you wouldn't have to use force | 11:14 |
| Lazy^ | Oer: what that cmd excatly do ? | 11:15 |
| erUSUL | paul3333: ntfsfix ? form ntfsprogs ? | 11:15 |
| ActionParsnip | Paul3333: what are you trying to achieve? | 11:15 |
| Oer | it can resolve broken packages and errors | 11:15 |
| paul3333 | <erUSUL> tried, it didn't work | 11:15 |
| ActionParsnip | lazy: sudo apt-get -f install ,is worth a bash too | 11:15 |
| erUSUL | paul3333: then you will have to use a windows tool | 11:15 |
| Lazy^ | ActionParsnip: that cmd gives same error | 11:16 |
| primate | I have a basic question... | 11:16 |

| mcl0vin_ | is there is a way i can change home screen style in notebook remix? | 11:17 |

| primate | ActionParsnip, I assume this link applies to me as well | 11:23 |
| ActionParsnip | Primate: boot to the live usb environment and reinstall grub. You don't have to reinstall just because the bootloader is bad. Just fix the bootloader | 11:23 |
| primate | oh ok | 11:23 |
| jfoozie420 | cause i tried about:config on firefox but it doesn't seem to help when i toggle ipv6 to false | 11:23 |

| ActionParsnip | Rocket16: the demo is free but the game is worth it | 11:26 |
| rocket16 | ActionParsnip: A demo is not Open-Source, and also, the what I like is a RTS, like the fans of Age of Mythology and AoK, | 11:26 |

| brianherman | InvaderZim: does it work with chrome? | 11:28 |
| rocket16 | ActionParsnip: The debate continues, if you consider Java too, and I do have them. But, the thing is that, Commercial < Free < Open-Source, so Flash is better than Commercial softwares like Penumbra | 11:28 |

| Ken8521 | mcl0vin, its fairly easy, there's a skype repository.. add it, and install it. | 11:30 |
| rocket16 | ActionParsnip: What we want to advocate Ubuntu for, is freedom and Open-Source. So, commercial games are not welcome here. The best way is to use free and open-source softwares. | 11:30 |
| ActionParsnip | Rocket16: nonfree proprietary isn't all bad. I am actively supporting developers who make native games for both linux and windows which can only be a good thing | 11:30 |
| ActionParsnip | Rocket16: if all games makers m.ade native linux versions wouldn't that be a great time? | 11:31 |
| manohar | mcl0vin: which ubuntu version u use? | 11:31 |
| ActionParsnip | Rocket16: no more need for wine or installing windows so you can play the latest games | 11:31 |
| manohar | if u hav latest its very simple | 11:31 |
| etzerd | hello all | 11:31 |

| ahox | Hi, is there a good looking *non-mono* linux font where each character has the same width regardless of style? | 11:34 |
| rocket16 | ActionParsnip: A mutual profit is always welcome, when it benefits the ideology of the user and the developer. And I have researched nicely enough, but you seem to challenge the nature of Linux, and also, drag the discussion offtopic. In addition, Things like non-free softwares cause a flow of money from the pockets of the users to the developers. But Open-Source is what allows users to be developers. | 11:34 |

| erUSUL | ahox: so you want a monospaced font that is "non-mono" ? | 11:35 |
| ahox | jrib: no, I don't care if i and w have the same width | 11:35 |
| ActionParsnip | Rocket16: no I just understand paid for software and proprietary software can exist as part of any OS. | 11:35 |
| mcl0vin | nexiu: what does ifconfig -a give you | 11:35 |
| ahox | jrib: but w and *w* should have | 11:35 |

| jrib | ahox: I see | 11:35 |

| mcl0vin | Ken8521: afraid it will not work right on my hp mini 110 | 11:38 |

| ActionParsnip | Rods_tiger: less packages == less updates | 11:39 |

| Rods_Tiger | ok | 11:39 |
| Fullmoon | Thanks! | 11:39 |
| Ken8521 | mcl0vin, so boot a live cd and test it | 11:39 |
| ahox | Rods_Tiger: the problem is that dpkg only seems to append so your db increases all the time | 11:39 |
| alabd | any opinion ? | 11:40 |
| Rods_Tiger | ah, that's why my Acer Aspire One netbook has run out of room in a few weeks | 11:40 |
| ActionParsnip | Rods_tiger: remove the vnc server if you don't use it, and rdesktop etc if you don't use that | 11:40 |
| mcl0vin | Ken8521: no CD on this mini | 11:40 |
| Rods_Tiger | good idea | 11:40 |
| ActionParsnip | Rods_tiger: also removing old kernels can claw back 120mb per kernel | 11:40 |
| Rods_Tiger | doesn't that happen automatically then? | 11:41 |
| ahox | Rods_Tiger: I don't think so, the increase is minimal | 11:41 |
| ActionParsnip | Rods_tiger: no | 11:41 |
| Ken8521 | mcl0vin, ... do you have a usb thumb drive?.. around 1gig? | 11:41 |

| zvacet | samba | samba | 11:41 |
| ActionParsnip | Rods_tiger: they are technically the same OS ;) | 11:41 |
| ahox | what might help is an aptitude autoclean | 11:41 |
| zvacet | samba | alabd | 11:41 |
| ActionParsnip | Rods_tiger: uname -a; dpkg -l | grep linux-image | 11:41 |
| alabd | any other way ? | 11:42 |

| Rods_Tiger | Ta | 11:42 |
| mcl0vin | Ken8521: yep i got 2 GB | 11:42 |

| Rods_Tiger | there's loads! | 11:42 |
| nexsja | i have about 5 or more kernels listed in my grub, i'd just like to remove them | 11:42 |
| erUSUL | nexsja: with synaptic? search for linux-image | 11:42 |
| winterweaver | is it safe to backup my pupblick and private ssh keys by using the export command in Accessories >> Passwords and Encryption Keys? | 11:43 |
| zvacet | nexsja: from synaptic type linux-image in search box and remove kernel qwith lower number | 11:43 |
| ActionParsnip | Nexsja: run the above command, you can then use apt-get or software centre to remove the old kernels. Do NOT remove the current kernel | 11:43 |
| Rods_Tiger | why not? | 11:43 |
| alabd | zvacet, which one of NFS or samba do you advice? | 11:43 |
| ActionParsnip | Rods_tiger: ^ | 11:43 |
| Ken8521 | mcl0vin, ok.. download the i386 Live Desktop ISO from Ubuntu... its around 700mb... then use the USB Disk Creator, to put the iso on the USB drive, then boot the USB drive.. it will be just like running from a cd | 11:43 |
| nexsja | thank you! :> | 11:43 |
| ActionParsnip | Rods_tiger: it will break stuff | 11:43 |
| zvacet | nexsja: keep two kernels just in case that latest doesn't work properly | 11:43 |
| Rods_Tiger | good reason | 11:43 |
| mcl0vin | Ken8521: where do i get the usb creator please, is it included in the ISO | 11:44 |
| Rods_Tiger | ubuntu can't be set up to ditch the older ones minus the two most recent then, automatically? | 11:44 |
| ActionParsnip | Rods_tiger: you can get a little more space removing the video drivers you never use but its not much | 11:44 |
| Rods_Tiger | big apps are the best candidate then | 11:44 |
| Ken8521 | mcl0vin, what version of ubuntu nbr are you using, it's probably on there | 11:44 |
| zvacet | alabd: I don' advice just trying to give you some info | 11:44 |
| nexsja | ummmm | 11:44 |
| ActionParsnip | Rods_tiger: not as far as I know, submit it on http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com | 11:44 |

| Rods_Tiger | ok | 11:45 |
| nexsja | it looks like nvidia is getting removed also... is that a bad thing? | 11:45 |
| ActionParsnip | Rods_tiger: whatever you don't need, remove | 11:45 |
| mcl0vin | well i will be using windows to create it | 11:45 |
| alabd | any opinion which one of samba and NFS is better to access files and folders on vista ? | 11:45 |
| mcl0vin | Ken8521: nbr? not familir with the term | 11:45 |
| ActionParsnip | Nexsja: it will remove the nvidia kernel module for that kernel | 11:45 |
| nexsja | oh, so it's okay? | 11:46 |
| koshari | mcl0vin use unetbootin then | 11:46 |
| Ken8521 | mcl0vin, what version of ubuntu are you using? | 11:46 |
| joaopinto | alabd, windows does not natively support NFS, it's an easy asnwer, SMB | 11:46 |

| hateball | keito_: you could make a little script that sleeps a bit before launching docky | 12:00 |
| Oer | keito_, there is a way to delay the startup of docky , adding 'sleep 10 && <application>' | 12:00 |
| hateball | hehe ^^ | 12:00 |
| chris4585 | hateball, lol | 12:01 |
| keito_ | hateball, yeah... classy | 12:01 |
| hateball | Hey, whatever works ;) | 12:01 |
| keito_ | How does a bug like this make it past testing? lol | 12:01 |
| keito_ | Other than that Karmic is OK. I'm currently testing various systems on a Sept-boot system.... Waiting for Lucid to go final release | 12:02 |
| keito_ | Hopefully this issue with docky will be ironed out. knocking up a bash script to sleep a while before launching an app is just amateur | 12:03 |
| bitfox | hi guys | 12:03 |
| barberan | hello | 12:04 |
| keito_ | !hello | 12:04 |
| ubottu | Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines . Enjoy your stay! | 12:04 |
| Dr4g | Anyone here got IE working with WINE ? | 12:05 |
| keito_ | IE... OMG | 12:05 |
| keito_ | seriously. | 12:05 |
| abb | seriously++ | 12:05 |
| frogzoo | someone can plz recommend a rss ticker for gnome? | 12:05 |
| keito_ | on that note I shall bid you farewell. | 12:05 |
| Dr4g | :P i need to test my web app in IE, i don't wanna reboot into Windows | 12:05 |
| keito_ | liferea | 12:05 |
| keito_ | frogzoo, ^^ | 12:05 |
| bitfox | few months ago an annoying problem starts on my ubuntu | 12:05 |
| frogzoo | keito_: thankee sir | 12:05 |
| abb | Dr4g: Since you asked, yes, IIRC, the old (6.x) versions of IE work okay. But the later versions -- it's just easier to virtualize windows (Virtualbox, Vmware, etc) instead. | 12:06 |
| erUSUL | !virtualizers | Dr4g | 12:06 |
| ubottu | Dr4g: There are several solutions for running other operating systems (or their programs) inside Ubuntu, while using the native CPU as much as possible: !QEmu (with !KQemu), !VirtualBox, !VMWare, as well as !WINE and !Cedega for Windows applications | 12:06 |
| Dr4g | thanks man | 12:06 |
| keito_ | Dr4g, if it's for testing purposes then virtualise... but please, help make IE a thing of the past. | 12:06 |
| Ken8521 | vbox is just to easy to setup to mess w/ the headache of trying to get IE working under Linux | 12:06 |
| abb | bitfox: what annoying problem? | 12:06 |
| abb | Dr4g: (what Ken8521 said) | 12:07 |
| Dr4g | erUSUL, which one would you use for testing IE 6, 7 or 8 | 12:07 |
| Dr4g | Ken8521, ok thanks | 12:07 |
| erUSUL | Dr4g: virtualbox is the easier to get / set up | 12:07 |
| Dr4g | got it | 12:07 |
| Dr4g | brb lunch. ppl shouting "hurry up dr4g" :D | 12:07 |
| Dr4g | peace. | 12:08 |
| erUSUL | !info virtualbox-ose | Dr4g | 12:08 |
| ubottu | Dr4g: virtualbox-ose (source: virtualbox-ose): x86 virtualization solution - base binaries. In component universe, is optional. Version 3.0.8-dfsg-1ubuntu1 (karmic), package size 6182 kB, installed size 24292 kB (Only available for amd64 i386 lpia all) | 12:08 |
| abb | Dr4g: I personally use Virtualbox, running Windows XP and Windows 7 (when required) 32 and 64 bit fine on my Karmic install. | 12:08 |
| Lazy^ | Hi, I get this error when using apt-get or aptitude: W: Failed to fetch http://packages.medibuntu.org/dists/hardy/Release.gpg Could not resolve 'http' | 12:08 |
| bitfox | Every time i have my shell opened and I write some command... sometimes, at regular intervals the shell blocks for few moments... | 12:08 |
| Lazy^ | dns ect are working perfectly | 12:08 |
| brianherman | Dr4g:http://www.tatanka.com.br/ies4linux/page/Main_Page | 12:08 |
| abb | Dr4g: You might want to look up the difference between virtualbox-ose and virtualbox (PUEL) -- if you have need for USB support, the PUEL version is (close source, but free) the way to go, IMO. | 12:08 |
| Ken8521 | Lazy^, its probably medibuntu is having a prob w/ their repository... | 12:08 |
| frogzoo | bitfox: ur cpu @ 100% ? | 12:08 |
| Dr4g | brianherman, yep thanks | 12:09 |
| bitfox | abb: It's very annoying | 12:09 |
| Lazy^ | Ken8521: it's with all the repositorys what i have | 12:09 |
| * Dr4g is writing all these down | 12:09 | |
| bitfox | frogzoo: no | 12:09 |
| Lazy^ | Ken8521: Err ftp://security.ubuntu.com karmic-security Release.gpg Could not resolve 'http' | 12:09 |
| Ken8521 | Lazy^, oh... you've not added the gpg key for the medibuntu repository | 12:09 |
| Lazy^ | same problem with that one also | 12:09 |
| frogzoo | bitfox: run 'vmstat 5' in a window | 12:09 |
| abb | Lazy^: I just started getting Mediabuntu errors too. I wonder if their server is down, or the main server, or...etc? (But it's not just you.) | 12:09 |
| Ken8521 | Lazy^, its their server.. not you | 12:09 |
| abb | bitfox: when your shell blocks, immediately after it "unlocks" if you type dmesg -- do you see any errors that stick out at you? | 12:10 |
| Lazy^ | Ken8521: but ftp://security.ubuntu.com works on other computer :) | 12:10 |
| Ken8521 | Lazy^, "could not resolve" suggests either there is a connection problem on your end(which you say is fine), so it must be their end. | 12:10 |
| Ken8521 | Lazy^, is it for karmic? | 12:11 |
| Lazy^ | but why it says "http" and not the dns-name, like "ftp://security.ubuntu.com" | 12:11 |
| Lazy^ | yep | 12:11 |
| bitfox | frogzoo: one moment... | 12:11 |
| bitfox | abb: there aren't any errors | 12:11 |
| Ken8521 | must be something screwy w/ yur source list.. | 12:11 |
| abb | Lazy^: Grep through your /etc/apt/sources.d/* and see hwo that particular item is written -- maybe there's a typo | 12:11 |
| abb | Lazy^: s/hwo/how | 12:11 |
| bitfox | frogzoo: done... | 12:12 |
| abb | bitfox: what's your hardware, what kernel are you running, etc? ( processor, laptop/desktop model, and output of uname -a) ? | 12:12 |
| Ken8521 | or.. assuming both of your boxes are running the samme versions of linux, just copy the "working" source list, over to the one that "isnt" working.. and voila.. | 12:12 |
| * abb points to Ken8521 and says "once again, what that guy said." | 12:13 | |
| Ken8521 | lol | 12:13 |
| * abb performs magic by proxy. Voila! | 12:13 | |
| frogzoo | bitfox: does the output suggest any sort of resource deficiency? | 12:13 |
| bitfox | My laptop is acer 5600 wml | 12:13 |
| abb | bitfox: remember to paste your output into pastebin or something, if it's large... | 12:14 |
| abb | !pastebin |bitfox | 12:14 |
| ubottu | bitfox: For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://tinyurl.com/imagebin | !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic. | 12:14 |
| abb | cool, that's the first "ubottu command" I've ever used...well, except for random goofing around ... like !isThisRandomThingInThere and such. hehe | 12:14 |
| abb | bitfox: examples of what you might want to record/paste for the channel to inspect: output of sudo `lspci -v & dmesg & lshw > pastebin.txt` | 12:16 |
| abb | or something like that. | 12:16 |
| Lazy^ | abb: everything seems to be ok. It's bitching about 'http' error, i can't understand why it isn't bitching with dns name. that 'http' gets me feeling that something else is fucked up | 12:16 |
| abb | Lazy^: no, (with all respect) I think you're confusing the questions. This guy is talking about a random hangup where the control prompt freezes when he's in the shell. (Or at least that's what I THOUGHT he said.) | 12:17 |
| abb | Lazy^: though I agree with your assessment of the guy with the http error. :) | 12:17 |
| Lazy^ | abb: hehe, i just answered that with grep /etc/apt/sources.d/ seems to be ok... | 12:18 |
| abb | oh hell, must go afk for a bit. bitfox, if you're out there, um... may angels fly thee to thy rest. er, I mean, "good luck" :) | 12:19 |
| DanJ | Is there a reason I can't drag a window to my second monitor with a twinview (nvidia) setup running a fresh install of Karmic? | 12:21 |
| Ken8521 | DanJ, most likely your twinview isn't setup right... | 12:21 |
| Ken8521 | i drag stuff from one to the other all the time | 12:21 |
| DanJ | hrm | 12:21 |
| bitfox | abb: I analized the dmesg output... all seems to be ok! :-) | 12:22 |
| DanJ | think there's maybe a conflict with x/compiz et al | 12:22 |
| DanJ | I haven't used ubuntu in a while, it's changed a bit | 12:22 |
| DanJ | :) | 12:22 |
| Ken8521 | DanJ, just outof curiosity, try this.... open a window on the left window, and instead of dragging it "right" to get on the right monitor... drag it left.... and see if it comes up on the right monitor | 12:22 |
| DanJ | nah already tried that | 12:22 |
| DanJ | no joy | 12:22 |
| DanJ | :0 | 12:22 |
| Ken8521 | lol | 12:23 |
| Ken8521 | got me once to.. :) | 12:23 |
| DanJ | what's Xinerama? | 12:23 |
| Ken8521 | never had to use it, twinview works fine | 12:23 |
| DanJ | kk | 12:23 |
| bitfox | abb: Today I tried to disable compiz effects from system->preferences but the problem doesn't disappear | 12:23 |
| Ken8521 | DanJ, i take it you've set everything up in Nvidia-Settings? | 12:24 |
| DanJ | yeah AFAIK | 12:24 |
| Ken8521 | and you've enabled the driver? | 12:24 |
| DanJ | yeah | 12:24 |
| Ken8521 | hmm | 12:24 |
| DanJ | I have like, two desktops | 12:24 |
| DanJ | which is odd | 12:24 |
| DanJ | it's not a clone | 12:24 |
| Ken8521 | oh.. you've got your nvidia-settings wrong | 12:24 |
| DanJ | oh ok | 12:24 |
| === root is now known as Guest68540 | ||
| Ken8521 | yeah, i'm not at my desktop so i cant tell you exactly how it is. | 12:24 |
| DanJ | oh shit | 12:25 |
| Ken8521 | DanJ, go to nvidia-settings... and i *think* its display settings.. then click Configure.. and make sure its set to twinview | 12:25 |
| DanJ | I've got "seperate screen" ticked instead of twinview | 12:25 |
| DanJ | ha | 12:25 |
| DanJ | I'm a twat | 12:25 |
| DanJ | nvm | 12:25 |
| Ken8521 | DanJ, yup... | 12:25 |
| FloodBot3 | DanJ: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 12:25 |
| DanJ | harsh | 12:25 |
| DanJ | cool brb | 12:25 |
| bitfox | For example in this moments I'm typing from the terminal... all it's ok, but later the problem will appear. I'm sure | 12:26 |

| DanJ | I like the cube | 12:33 |
| DanJ | that's about it | 12:33 |
| Ken8521 | DanJ, u shouldve installed Lucid... it's really pretty solid.. but the nvidia driver is kind of a pain because of the restricted driver changes | 12:33 |

| littlepenguin | ah ok...setkeh | 12:38 |

| Nubulis | Hello | 12:40 |
| setkeh | littlepenguin: just says cant enumerate usb device on port 3 | 12:40 |
| Amiz | anyone knows the reason why wireless doesn't work on my netbook after i installed ubuntu ? | 12:41 |
| nyhcjedi | what is the process of adding a printer to my ubuntu 9.10 workstation? | 12:41 |
| Ken8521 | circuitman, go here, and search for "aurora gtk engine".. i'm assuming its one of those... http://gnome-look.org/content/search.php | 12:41 |
| Nubulis | I've just installed ubuntu, I'm a linux/unix newbie. everything seems to be working fine, except the audio. Any suggestions? | 12:41 |
| hateball | !audio | 12:41 |
| ubottu | If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 12:41 |
| Amiz | what about wireless instead ? | 12:42 |
| circuitman | ken8521:is it gtk+ | 12:42 |
| littlepenguin | setkeh modules areeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee loaded? | 12:42 |
| littlepenguin | oh sry | 12:42 |
| Amiz | my wireless button doesn't seem to work | 12:42 |
| setkeh | littlepenguin: what modules do you need for usb / doesent the kernel load them at boot | 12:43 |
| Ken8521 | Amiz, well, unemployment in the US is very high, maybe it just can't find a job | 12:43 |
| littlepenguin | you should check if usb modules are loaded..maybe why ever they are not loaded | 12:43 |

| === nikolam_ is now known as nikolam | ||
| Amiz | you are so funny ken | 12:44 |
| Amiz | or not | 12:44 |
| Amiz | :D | 12:44 |
| setkeh | littlepenguin: that brings me back to the first question what modules are needed for usb | 12:44 |
| Ken8521 | setkeh, its quiite possible you have a hardware recognition issue.. its just not recognizing your internal usb hub. | 12:44 |
| Ken8521 | Amiz, well, you said it wouldn't work.. why don't you try expanding on your question | 12:44 |
| littlepenguin | @setkeh first do lsmod |grep usb | 12:44 |
| Ken8521 | e-DIO-t, whats your wireless device, and what is the kernel error? | 12:45 |
| setkeh | Ken8521: i have i have a linux foundation 1.1 root hub in my lsusb | 12:45 |
| circuitman | ken8521:am sorry i cant find | 12:45 |
| Nubulis | got it. thank you | 12:45 |
| setkeh | littlepenguin: you command phails | 12:45 |
| Amiz | Well it's a Compaq 700EL, i've installed ubuntu, sound and everything works, just the wifi switch, when i press it to turn it on it stays orange and doesn't turn blue | 12:45 |
| e-DIO-t | mmh i should reinstall -> the main problem is a Wifi module crash -> connection fault. After an update it prints no error, btw wireless falls down in a "some minute". | 12:46 |
| e-DIO-t | [i should reinstall it to give you proper infos] | 12:46 |
| Ken8521 | Amiz, but does your wifi work?.. that's not an uncommon issue to be truthful.. mine has never even lit up... but my wifi works fine | 12:46 |
| Amiz | it doesn't | 12:47 |
| Ken8521 | Amiz, now we're getting somewhere. | 12:47 |
| setkeh | Ken8521: Amiz: sometimes you need to load an extra modual for you wifi light to work | 12:47 |
| Ken8521 | when you click nm-applet, can you see networks? | 12:47 |
| Ken8521 | setkeh, true... i've never bothered.. but i was really speaking about "out of the box" | 12:47 |
| e-DIO-t | wireless is AtherosAR928X | 12:47 |
| Amiz | extra modual ? what's that and how to load it ? | 12:47 |
| e-DIO-t | cellphone | 12:47 |
| Ken8521 | Amiz, it doesn't matter, it won't fix your problem | 12:48 |
| littlepenguin | @setkeh try sudo modprobe -r usbhid | 12:48 |
| setkeh | Ken8521: yeh :D i was just putting it out there :D | 12:48 |
| Dr4g | Hey guys im back. Installed virtualbox now and when setting up an XP environment it's asking me to choose the size of my boot hard disk | 12:48 |

| Dr4g | Ken8521, ok what should i do when it's asking me about boot hard disks | 12:50 |
| DanJ | I need a stable environment, this is a work box :) | 12:50 |
| Dr4g | to create a new hard disk or use existing one | 12:50 |
| Ken8521 | DanJ, ah, gotcha, yeah its not for that.. yet | 12:50 |

| circuitman | Dr_willis:i actually downloaded a theme called lightning and tried to install it | 13:06 |
| csaba | did you compile it? | 13:06 |
| Dr_Willis | circuitman: not all 'themes' are actually themes.. many are theme 'parts' | 13:06 |

| geekphreak | grkblood: log mouse clicks really? | 13:17 |
| grkblood | geekphreak: yes | 13:17 |
| NET||abuse | grkblood, depends on how you mean? i think there's some simple python bindings for watching dbus for mouse or keyboard activity,, not sure htough, never done it. | 13:17 |
| geekphreak | grkblood: not that i know off mate | 13:17 |
| perhamlinux | grkblood: you can access your mouse directly at /dev/input/by-path/.. | 13:18 |
| grkblood | im writing a program/script that needs a start and stop log from a certain prog | 13:18 |
| syli725 | sorry, I think I didn't express my questions correctly. gimp and blender are image editing programs. What I want is just viewing images in a cool way. image viewer like gthumb, gwenview etc... but they don't support 3D wall feature. | 13:18 |
| grkblood | i want to be able to get the start and stop without altering the program | 13:18 |

| syli725 | NET||abuse, I think there should be one exists with opengl 3d support. that's why I am here to ask. just like what compiz-fusion 3D wall to preview all desktops. instead of previewing desktops, I want to preview all images. | 13:22 |

| ZykoticK9 | Dr_Willis, thanks for the medibuntu / webupd8 link :) | 13:33 |
| geekphreak | matteo1990: delete the /var/cache/apt/archive/xulrunner.deb file then redownload it | 13:34 |
| Dr_Willis | ZykoticK9: yep. gotta love news feeds in the browser menus :) | 13:34 |
| littlepenguin | second would be to purge network manager and only use the files in /etc/network/ | 13:34 |
| perhamlinux | ZykoticK9: isn't that just a normal down-time issue? | 13:34 |
| sebersole | so no ideas on the case of the disappearing task bar entries? | 13:34 |

| ZykoticK9 | perhamlinux, not a normal down-time no - see the date - bug was added yesterday due to the issue we are all having | 13:35 |
| sebersole | would it be any setting in the .desktop file? | 13:35 |

| sebersole | geekphreak: b4 i was running kde | 13:36 |
| sebersole | and yes | 13:36 |
| geekphreak | sebersole: did icon fade away before too or was it ok? | 13:36 |
| sebersole | it was fine | 13:36 |
| geekphreak | ok | 13:36 |
| geekphreak | sebersole: then do this | 13:36 |
| sebersole | even though these .desktop files are supposed to be common i am seeing a lot of kde specific stuff in there | 13:37 |
| geekphreak | sebersole: open terminal , and loook in folder .gconf/apps and .kde/share/apps and rename the folder for idea to idea.back | 13:37 |
| sebersole | geekphreak: none under ~/.kde/share/apps | 13:38 |
| geekphreak | sebersole: any setting or . files/folder for that ide, i dont use it :) | 13:39 |

| Boon | any 1 help? | 13:51 |
| Pici | nevrax: The difference is the base packages isntalled. | 13:52 |
| IdleOne | hello geekphreak :) | 13:52 |
| erUSUL | Boon: usually only one version of php is aviable in each ubuntu release ... | 13:52 |
| Demiurge_ | How do I id a particular window? I'd like to exclude a panel from one of the effects in compiz, using compizconfig. | 13:52 |
| syli725 | bazhang, ok. thanks. | 13:52 |
| nevrax | Pici: and for an automated install i can choose the base package from kickstart or preseed? | 13:52 |
| bazhang | Demiurge_, asked in #compiz yet? | 13:52 |
| Pici | nevrax: Yes, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation#Server and network installations | 13:52 |
| Besogon | scunizi: system-config-samba for example. BUT don't use gadmin if you don't reallyknow samba well | 13:52 |
| Boon | guess i need to compile it manually | 13:53 |
| erUSUL | Boon: so the question is; is not 5.3 compatible with 5.2 ? | 13:53 |
| nevrax | Pici: hmm... in that case ubuntu rullz! | 13:53 |
| bullgard4 | Besogon: Where do I find "sent" in Empathy's menu hierarchy? | 13:53 |
| maani | where is the source.list directory? :d | 13:53 |
| nevrax | Pici: thank you | 13:53 |
| littlepenguin | @boon go into synaptic choose php and select force older version | 13:53 |
| Pici | maani: /etc/apt/ or /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ | 13:53 |
| bazhang | maani, /etc/apt/ | 13:53 |
| scunizi | Besogon: I've tried cli and have been reading my samba book.. googleing etc.. ultimately what I'm trying to accomplish is to have one folder on a secondary drive accessable by anyone, without authentication.. (I used system-config-samba.. got me half way there) | 13:53 |
| maani | :D Merci | 13:53 |
| Demiurge_ | bazhang: No, in another ubuntu channel. And I got an answer(xwininfo). | 13:53 |
| scunizi | Besogon: system-config-samba did that just fine but all files placed on the share are owned by the creator so write access is impossible unless you own it. | 13:54 |

| geekphreak | kermit: sorry did not get the question | 13:59 |
| Pici | kermit: look at /etc/fstab | 13:59 |
| littlepenguin | yep boon..start synaptic..choose php..then rightclick properties and you can choose older versions for installation..havent tried it but should work | 13:59 |

| kermit | geekphreak: things that would go after '-o' when mounting, column 4 in /etc/fstab .. how do i pass them to the mounting of my root filesystem? | 14:01 |
| Besogon | bullgard4: yes that is | 14:01 |
| Boon | now this | 14:01 |
| Boon | (synaptic:31641): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: | 14:01 |

| Boon | @_@ | 14:01 |
| bullgard4 | Kiff: I do not know a standard volume control and and I do not know 'system volume'. | 14:01 |
| kermit | Pici: then it's not the root filesystem, which isnt the question | 14:01 |

| Pici | geekphreak: clearly mistabbed ;) | 14:38 |
| ascheel | Pici: that was meant for greenymonkey and not geekphreak | 14:38 |
| csaba | tachiro: maybe I have it locally, just a sec | 14:38 |
| tachiro | sure | 14:38 |
| h00k | ubottu: tell greenymonkey about appdb | 14:38 |
| geekphreak | ascheel: type sudo apt-get install rcconf | 14:38 |
| ubottu | greenymonkey, please see my private message | 14:39 |
| ascheel | rcconf is already installed and shows apache2 and mysql enabled | 14:39 |
| geekphreak | Pici: yep i know , fun pulling your leg for a change :) | 14:39 |
| ascheel | geekphreak: correction. apache2 isn't listed, but mysql is | 14:39 |
| geekphreak | ascheel: when it is installed sudo rcconf , are they both chked? | 14:40 |
| greenymonkey | h00k: I've tried looking every where on the internet but it seems like the error is common but no one has a clue what to do | 14:40 |
| Ddorda | Im looking for a dock that I can run without compiz or OpenGL, is there such a thing? | 14:40 |
| bastid_raZor | Ddorda: cairo-dock can run without openGL | 14:41 |
| scunizi | ascheel: you could "sudo tasksel" and reinstall or install LAMP (most of which you already have) but it might set up the deamon correctly to start on boot. | 14:41 |
| ZykoticK9 | Ddorda, never used it myself but check out simdock | 14:41 |
| ascheel | scunizi: could I do an apt-get install --reinstall on it? | 14:41 |
| greenymonkey | Does anyone else know anything about error 132 | 14:42 |
| littlepenguin | greeny in what consens? | 14:42 |
| greenymonkey | relating to wow | 14:42 |
| scunizi | ascheel: probably but sudo tasksel prompt you with a menu and then runs apt-get and other scripts to install what you want on the server. | 14:42 |
| littlepenguin | wow...stop wasting timwe | 14:42 |
| littlepenguin | time | 14:42 |
| greenymonkey | ? | 14:42 |
| littlepenguin | just a joke | 14:42 |

| Pici | greenymonkey: #winehq would be the more appropriate place to ask | 14:42 |
| littlepenguin | greeny did you ask wow support?? | 14:42 |
| greenymonkey | little, i haven't asked wow support | 14:43 |
| greenymonkey | little; but I have checked winehq i've checked wowwiki i've checked everywhere | 14:43 |
| Ddorda | ZykoticK9: I will try. thanks | 14:44 |
| greenymonkey | pici; is there another channel on Xchat where I can speak to WoW or winehq | 14:44 |
| ZykoticK9 | greenymonkey, in the comments section there are some 132 errors http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=17421 | 14:44 |

| ZykoticK9 | greenymonkey, are you passing -opengl | 14:44 |
| Dr_Willis | greenymonkey: you mean other then the #winehq channel? | 14:44 |
| tachiro | ok well i'll keeps scouring the site | 14:44 |
| littlepenguin | @greeny error 132 has sthg to do with ram issues | 14:44 |
| tachiro | but thanks for looking | 14:45 |
| Dr_Willis | WoW has so many pages and forum threads on the WineHQ web site. its scary | 14:45 |
| csaba | maybe search for lexmark ubuntu 9.10 on google, I'm not sure how I found it | 14:45 |

| bsky_ | hello | 14:46 |
| littlepenguin | hi bsky | 14:47 |
| yatesie | hi, why does 9.10 start with wireless disabled? how do i stop it from being disabled on startup? | 14:48 |
| dekroning | i want to add some pointer device to my Xorg config, however i don't have a /etc/X11/xorg.conf file, how can i add my config, or rather where ? | 14:49 |
| yatesie | dekroning: there are other places that duplicates of xorg.conf can be and will be looked for | 14:50 |
| fosco_ | dekroning: generate a new xorg.conf with X - configure :1 | 14:50 |
| littlepenguin | dekron or look in your fav search engione for examples | 14:50 |
| fosco_ | modify it to feet your needings and move it to /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 14:50 |
| dekroning | fosco_: well i tried that, but with the configratuion X -configure generates my X doesn't wont to start | 14:50 |
| ascheel | scunizi, reinstall of LAMP, still not starting at boot-up. | 14:50 |

| fosco_ | fit* | 14:51 |
| tachiro | HAH! | 14:51 |
| tachiro | yeaaaaa | 14:51 |
| ascheel | geekphreak: no 'apache2' listed in rcconf | 14:51 |
| ascheel | scunizi, full reboot yes. | 14:51 |
| dekroning | fosco_: so i'm really curious which config settings Ubuntu uses for it's default xorg.conf | 14:51 |
| geekphreak | ascheel: using LAMP? | 14:52 |
| tachiro | csaba ok i try it out | 14:52 |
| tachiro | thanks | 14:52 |
| fosco_ | dekroning: everything is autodetected | 14:52 |
| tachiro | again* | 14:52 |
| ascheel | geekphreak, just manuall installation of mysql, apache2, and php, but yes it's LAMP for all intents and purposes | 14:52 |
| csaba | no problem | 14:52 |
| ascheel | s/manuall/manual | 14:52 |
| dekroning | fosco_: but X -configure is also autodetected right? | 14:52 |
| Reckon | hello everybody | 14:52 |
| fosco_ | yes | 14:52 |
| fosco_ | should be the same | 14:52 |
| dekroning | fosco_: them i'm confused why running that config doesn't work | 14:52 |
| fosco_ | read the X logs to find out what's the problem | 14:53 |
| fosco_ | grep EE /var/log/X*log | 14:53 |
| scunizi | ascheel: so when you reinstalled did you do it manually or use tasksel as suggested? | 14:54 |
| ascheel | scunizi: tasksel | 14:54 |
| dekroning | fosco_: doesn't have any EE (excpet for some false positives like MIT-SCREEN-SAVER and the default banner explaining (EE) error) | 14:54 |
| ascheel | no errors showed up. At least not to stdout or stderr. | 14:54 |

| ascheel | scunizi: doing that now | 14:56 |

| ZykoticK9 | skrite99, are you sure logrotate doesn't require elevated privileges? | 15:02 |
| skrite99 | ascheel, Pici ok, easy enough, thanks | 15:02 |

| ruby_on_tails | sipior: ok, browser specific snippets controlled by keyboard ? | 15:04 |
| Carlis | ok | 15:04 |
| sipior | ruby_on_tails: on the other hand, you could write a script which writes certain text to the clipboard, and call that script from your key shortcut. then you would just need to paste the text wherever. | 15:04 |
| Carlis | This is the sptep number 2: | 15:04 |
| Carlis | Step 2. Now we will need to install the. NET Framework in version 1 at least (preferably the version 1 and 2) besides the VisualBasic Runtimes. We will use a script which we obtain using wget in console: | 15:04 |
| yatesie | it's enabled and still not showing networks? | 15:04 |

| ascheel | scunizi: you may want to consider changing the create mask: http://pastebin.com/YRKt381K | 15:19 |
| Pici | solotim: Look at the output of free -m specifically, what is being used +/- buffers/cache | 15:19 |
| gabriel_ | h00k, got it... (but is it possible from within the installed netbook 9.10? | 15:20 |
| ascheel | scunizi: however, all 3 shares on this particular PC are open to the public. It should be self-explanatory locking some down to specific users and require authentication. The [stuff] share in particular is what you need to pay attention to | 15:20 |
| === Votan|off is now known as Votan | ||
| solotim | Pici: thank you | 15:21 |
| ascheel | scunizi: shouldn't even require a service restart (but one wouldn't hurt!) | 15:21 |
| scunizi | ascheel: nice.. give me a minute to look it over. should I just eliminate the "create mask" or change it to "something" else..? | 15:21 |
| the_real_dave | scunizi: The same will work with an open share. | 15:21 |
| the_real_dave | scunizi: Or does create mask not help? | 15:21 |
| ascheel | scunizi: leaving it there is fine, but I would recommend 666 so you can modify it directly on the server PC without needing 'sudo' | 15:22 |
| scunizi | ascheel: it's actually a share off my desktop as opposed to a seperate box | 15:22 |
| the_real_dave | scunizi: You could always write a script to change the permissions, and get cron to execute it every 5 minutes or so. I use that crude but effective method on my server | 15:22 |
| scunizi | the_real_dave: true.. but not exactly the most elegant way of accomplishing it. | 15:23 |

| ascheel | scunizi: better to have a create mask set. If you're giving them full read-write anyhow, then just set it to 0666 and forget about it | 15:24 |

| the_real_dave | scunizi: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/418627/ would do the trick, giving full access. Give me two secs for a cron entry | 15:25 |
| aman | can anyone help me with a little of "netstat -rn"???? | 15:25 |
| ikonia | aman: in what way ? | 15:26 |
| helo | uhh... that's recursive with line numbers right? | 15:26 |
| scunizi | ascheel: so the section in "stuff" is pretty much all I need? looks too easy.. my config had guest ok, read only, writeable & browseable as you have set it.. I didn't have public = yes or comment | 15:26 |
| jo__ | where would i find updated drivers for intel video cards that work nicely with ubuntu 9.10? | 15:26 |
| ikonia | helo: no, that's a routing tables resolved to names | 15:26 |
| ascheel | scunizi: you might need some of the [global] vars. Checking now | 15:26 |
| aman | ikonia: i have a question in which i have to find out problm in network but i dont know wat the problm in it....:( | 15:26 |
| helo | heh | 15:26 |
| scunizi | ascheel: that's what I was wondering. | 15:27 |
| the_real_dave | scunizi: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/418630/ | 15:27 |
| ikonia | aman: so what has that got to do with netstat -rn ? | 15:27 |
| scunizi | the_real_dave: thanks | 15:27 |
| aman | ikonia: please have a look at it http://img208.imageshack.us/i/ques3.png/ | 15:27 |
| ascheel | scunizi: you need the public and guest options. Probably good to do the 'read only' and 'writeable' as I have them set as well. In Global, get these settings: guest account, security, create mask | 15:27 |
| the_real_dave | scunizi: Not the most elegant way, but effective :) | 15:27 |
| ikonia | aman: we are not here to help you with tests, this is ubuntu support only | 15:28 |
| aman | ikonia: its a ques in ubuntu book only....:) | 15:28 |
| ascheel | scunizi: better yet, you can move that 'create mask' piece right to the [stuff] share so it's not a global setting | 15:28 |
| fasta | # mount.ntfs-3g /dev/sda1 /media/windisk/ => Segmentation fault. | 15:28 |
| jo__ | where would i find updated drivers for intel video cards that work nicely with ubuntu 9.10? | 15:28 |
| ikonia | aman: so ? | 15:29 |
| fasta | Is that a known issue? | 15:29 |
| ikonia | aman: this is ubuntu support - not test help | 15:29 |
| ascheel | scunizi: a global 'create mask' of 0666 is a bad idea. Restricting it to a single share is just fine. | 15:29 |
| h00k | gabriel_: not when it's running, no | 15:29 |
| scunizi | ascheel: security I don't have in my global.. I did try "inherit permissions" once.. to no effect. Wwhat does the create mask do again? | 15:29 |
| aman | ikonia, ok dude no problm dont be angry ....:) | 15:29 |
| gabriel_ | h00k, thanks m8 | 15:29 |
| ascheel | scunizi: create mask. When a user uploads a file that doesn't exist, it creates it with that mask for permissions. 0666 = rw, rw, rw | 15:29 |
| === aman is now known as indian_munnda | ||
| scunizi | ascheel: got it.. 666 as opposed to 777 eliminating the exec. bit.. don't you have to combine that with a user mask too? or as an open share there's no need for that? | 15:31 |
| jo__ | where would i find updated drivers for intel video cards that work nicely with ubuntu 9.10? | 15:31 |
| ascheel | scunizi: no need to do that with an open share like that. | 15:31 |
| === MikeB is now known as Technoviking | ||
| ascheel | scunizi: it will create the files as the user 'nobody' so keep that in mind. | 15:32 |
| ascheel | So you can change the 'nobody' in the smb.conf to be another user on the system if you really want to. I just leave it as that. | 15:32 |
| scunizi | ascheel: I've been hunting for these answers for a week.. samba book, online samba site, google, here.. you're the first to offer solid answers.. Thanks! | 15:32 |
| ascheel | lol no problem, my friend. Took me a few days to get it all sorted out, too. | 15:33 |
| scunizi | ascheel: even as the user "nobody" for files.. I should still be able to delete, read write create etc.. | 15:33 |

| solotim | sipior: it comes to my mind that I mannually mount my sda5(fat32) everytime after xubuntu startup. it seems that sda5 is not mounted automatically by system. Is this really ok if I move /home to /media/sda5/home and ln -s it? | 16:30 |
| TomG | solotim: You should add it to the fstab | 16:30 |
| Typh | is there a way to launch an app in another session? IE, I ssh in and launch a gui app in a session I know is already running | 16:31 |
| sipior | solotim: again, a fat32 partition is a poor choice. and yes, what TomG said :-) | 16:31 |
| Typh | I know I can ssh -X, but I don't want the app on my desktop, I want it on my desktop at home :) | 16:31 |
| sh4d3sl4y3r_ | i have an ADSL2+ connection in my home with dynamically assigned ip. And my home PC ip is in the range of 192.168.1.2. Port forwarding to port 22 "SSH" is enabled. Can I ssh into this box from my work? Connection gets refused | 16:32 |
| daMull | Typh: vnc ? | 16:32 |
| Tim|Work | Typh, DISPLAY=:0 appname & | 16:32 |
| Tim|Work | send the app to a display | 16:32 |
| solotim | TomG, sipior: thanks, I'm considering converting that fat partition completely. | 16:32 |
| Tim|Work | sh4d3sl4y3r_, did you install / start ssh on the box ? | 16:32 |
| bastid_raZor | Typh: if from box 1 you want ssh to box 2 and have a GUI app run on box 2 then don't use ssh -X .. just start the app in the ssh session on box 2 and it will open on box 2. i do this all the time with ktorrent | 16:32 |
| sipior | solotim: you'll feel better, believe me :-) | 16:33 |
| idlemind | sh4d3sl4y3r_ you will need to tell your router to forward ssh to your machine | 16:33 |
| sh4d3sl4y3r_ | idlemind: yes i NAT forwarded it already. and ssh is installed | 16:33 |
| sh4d3sl4y3r_ | however connection gets refused | 16:33 |
| sh4d3sl4y3r_ | though i have a dynamically assigned IP. i keep a note of the changed ips. and try to log in accordingly | 16:33 |
| idlemind | sh4d3sl4y3r_ you'll need to connect to your external ip not the 192.168.1.2 address | 16:33 |
| bastid_raZor | sh4d3sl4y3r_: openssh-server needs to be installed not just ssh | 16:33 |

| inglor | sab, but you can try to install LILO, it's another bootloader | 17:42 |
| sab | inglor, LucidGuy :i dont know but i tried in diffrent way,though i m very new user, | 17:43 |
| inglor | sab, does it just stop working out of the blue? | 17:43 |
| sab | inglor, i tried to install grub from the live cd but it gave me back only one os ubuntu | 17:43 |
| dahud | I am currently running Lucid beta 2. When the final arrives, will I be able to upgrade from beta? | 17:44 |
| inglor | sab, you need to run a detect | 17:44 |
| sab | inglor, no just not showing me the boot loader | 17:44 |
| inglor | dahud, probably, but lucid questions should be asked at ubuntu+1 | 17:44 |

| synack303 | sab, that will repopulate the grub list and windows should be back | 18:01 |
| frostburn | jo_, well, i'd ask for what confirmation that it is a wine issue then check your traceback in wine to see exactly where it crashes out | 18:01 |

| jo_ | captaintrek, you may have missed this earlier, but i spent about 2-3 hours chatting with them earlier | 18:07 |
| erUSUL | mouseover: maybe you can "tail -f /proc/$PID/2" but i'm not usre it would be possible. | 18:07 |
| jo_ | captaintrek, their conclusion was simply try #ubuntu as it looks like it's the video cards fault | 18:08 |
| CaptainTrek | jo_ got a list of the errors you are havin so I can see it? | 18:08 |
| synack303 | sab, you might need to delete the lock file -- it might be at either /var/cache/apt/lock or /var/lib/dpkg/lock. | 18:08 |

| arvind_khadri | wrapster, i dont know this method, probably involves chroot, i would suggest you log in from recovery console | 18:35 |
| wrapster | TomG: i think i missed that part on this channel.. too many convs scrolling by. | 18:36 |

| wrapster | geekphreak: not good.. :( | 19:06 |
| benkevan | chunkymonkey: Because they don't want you to apply? | 19:06 |
| wrapster | geekphreak: what to do now? | 19:06 |
| maginot | benkevan, no, xinitrc is to start the desktop but nvidia creates a new xorg.conf | 19:06 |
| geekphreak | wrapster: any application on that you dont use? | 19:06 |
| geekphreak | and you can uninstall wrapster | 19:06 |
| chunkymonkey | benkevan this happens on any app that i select | 19:07 |
| benkevan | xinitrc: but this is my boot screen (right after grub).. the Ubuntu screen.. is fugly.. | 19:07 |
| wrapster | geekphreak: i dont remember now.. | 19:07 |
| benkevan | would that still be xinitrc? since that's more for the DE? | 19:07 |
| geekphreak | wrapster: great ) | 19:07 |
| Shunt31 | anybody know how to make the same username in irssi and xchat? | 19:07 |
| wrapster | geekphreak: :( | 19:07 |
| geekphreak | wrapster: dont worry, nothing is gonna happen | 19:07 |
| Shunt31 | I just don't know which to pick | 19:07 |
| geekphreak | h00k: so waht do you say empty cache folder? | 19:08 |
| maginot | benkevan, sorry, I don't get it... you are talking about your screen resolution right? So nvidia has a panel which changes are then applied to xorg.conf | 19:08 |
| wrapster | geekphreak: how can i get it to boot now.. just anythin im ready to do. | 19:08 |
| h00k | geekphreak: er, I wasn't following | 19:08 |
| chunkymonkey | sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras did not work got a "Couldn't find package ubuntu-restricted-extras" is this comand wrong.. this is what i used sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras | 19:08 |
| geekphreak | h00k: np | 19:08 |
| benkevan | maginot: No.. not DE screen resolution.. the bootsplash resolution | 19:08 |
| maginot | chunkymonkey, aptitude search restricted | 19:08 |
| geekphreak | wrapster: ok do this | 19:08 |

| wrapster | geekphreak: fully? | 19:09 |
| benkevan | maginot:that's what I thought.. that it'd be gfxmode= | 19:09 |
| chunkymonkey | d34d|away will do | 19:09 |
| benkevan | which for some reason is now 640x480 | 19:09 |
| maginot | benkevan, no no wrong | 19:09 |

| maginot | benkevan, of course, you should ALWAYS edit /etc/default/grub | 19:12 |
| maginot | benkevan, if you hope to use gfx then use: GRUB_GFXMODE=1024x768 | 19:12 |

| h00k | Acoustyk: I don't know, it sounds like a theme issue, perhaps? | 19:21 |
| Urda | libertiy: Perhaps something like http://www.webmin.com/ might help you out for more that just mailboxes? | 19:21 |
| geekphreak | wrapster: right click panel >> add to panel >> add Trash | 19:21 |

| Luther | How should I install Ubuntu so that GRUB is not installed? | 19:23 |
| libertiy | ubuntu under what core does that fall actually? fedora? | 19:23 |
| h00k | libertiy: Ubuntu is based off Debian | 19:24 |
| libertiy | okay nice :) | 19:24 |
| Luther | I want to install Ubuntu on an external harddrive, but I don't want the drive to be plugged in to use GRUB to boot the computer I installed from. | 19:24 |
| h00k | Luther: I'm not sure how you would boot that at all, then | 19:25 |
| Luther | I want to be able to plug the external drive into any computer, then boot from that drive into Ubuntu | 19:25 |
| llutz | Luther: just write grub to partition, not to mbr | 19:25 |
| h00k | Luther: you're going to need some sort of bootloader on that MBR, then | 19:25 |
| maginot | Luther, so... make you a custom usb ubuntu | 19:25 |
| geekphreak | Luther: to boot you need a loader :) | 19:25 |
| mauro_ | join #ubuntu+1 | 19:26 |

| ikonia | nathan__: what ? | 19:28 |
| libertiy | hmm so on ubuntu you have exim and postfix are there any easy deployments for that maybe? then i just follow that | 19:29 |
| nathan__ | go to "open with other application" when you right lick on a file | 19:29 |
| ikonia | nathan__: if you remove the application it should go | 19:29 |
| nathan__ | it doesn't | 19:29 |
| ikonia | nathan__: that's a gconf setting | 19:29 |
| nathan__ | I have 3 entries for Bluefish, things like that | 19:29 |
| ikonia | nathan__: it's a drag but you'll have to search gconf for the entries | 19:29 |

| gurjeet | In config.pm urllist is set to ftp://mirrors.kernel.org/pub/CPAN/, and when I do perl -MCPAN -e 'install URI::Escape' I get No such file `URI-1.37.tar.gz'. I can see that ftp://mirrors.kernel.org//pub/CPAN/authors/id/G/GA/GAAS/ has URI-1.54.tar.gz . So the question is, how do I make perl choose the latest version of the module? | 19:30 |
| Deetaha | I am trying to run a java application and I get "Java is GCJ.. looking for Sun Java..", what do? | 19:30 |

| buttons840 | idlemind, so x starts at run level 4? anything else that will be disabled? | 19:36 |
| Pici | !runlevels | buttons840 | 19:36 |
| ubottu | buttons840: In Ubuntu all runlevels except 0,1 and 6 are by default equal. Also keep in mind that Ubuntu now uses !Upstart instead of System V init so there is normally no /etc/inittab. | 19:36 |
| ZykoticK9 | buttons840, if you want to disable GDM from starting on Karmic see http://sites.google.com/site/alucidfs/how-i-do/boot-to-console---disable-graphical-login-gdm | 19:36 |
| Pici | buttons840: If you don't want X to start at boot, then you should disable the gdm service: sudo update-rc.d gdm remove | 19:37 |
| idlemind | ahh guess i was wrong on that one ... didn't know that they moved off of that | 19:37 |

| Losha | Plugh: I've successfully started a system without X on 8.04 by simply renaming the gdm binaries. On 9.X I found this didn't work as well, since something in gdm setup seemed needed to get sound working. Go figure... | 19:41 |
| buttons840 | Pici, is there an easy way to run a command at login? i know there is the sessions in the startup applications gui, but what file(s) does that gui tool work with? | 19:41 |
| Plugh | Losha, that would be one way to do it. Kind of nasty compared to asking for runlevel 3 on instead of 5 | 19:42 |
| Plugh | And the need to remind yourself to change the name back later | 19:42 |

| zoidfarb | Hey, does anyone know how to disable ssh-agent? | 19:43 |
| erUSUL | buttons840: use ~/.profile ? | 19:43 |
| KukMan | but xsetwacom list write nothing | 19:43 |
| ZykoticK9 | buttons840, if you're still talking about starting xorg -- "startx" is the command and will start what you specifiy in .xinitrc | 19:43 |
| KukMan | and, I got eight ( 8 ) wacom devices | 19:44 |
| Losha | Plugh: I agree, but the runlevels stuff is ruined on ubuntu, and there's no longer an inittab to edit. Server editions run without X, so I assume there is some workaround but I never had the patience to find it and went back to 8.04... | 19:44 |
| h00k | KukMan: I don't know, but try to keep all questions on one line | 19:44 |
| KukMan | h00k, ok ;) | 19:44 |
| ZykoticK9 | buttons840, to start GDM run "sudo service gdm start" | 19:45 |
| Losha | zoidfarb: not quite what you asked, but ssh-add -D is supposed to delete all identities from the agent. | 19:45 |
| zoidfarb | Losha, that might do the trick. I'd rather not have ssh-agent running at all. (I'm trying test something) | 19:46 |
| Aciid | how do I get Ubuntu One Music Store for Karmic? | 19:47 |
| Losha | zoidfarb: you might be able to just kill it, or edit out the thing that starts it (*if* you can find it....) | 19:47 |
| zoidfarb | Losha, you can't seem to kill, because it just kills that one instance, and then a new one starts | 19:47 |
| zoidfarb | Losha, I followed this info: http://www.rekk.de/bloggy/2008/ssh-on-ubuntu-shh-agent-is-running-per-default/ | 19:48 |
| zoidfarb | and commented out the line in /etc/X11/Xsession.options | 19:48 |
| zoidfarb | but it still autostarted | 19:48 |
| sigmonsays | Is there a place to wget a complete base install in a tarball form? like gentoo stage3 ? | 19:48 |
| Plugh | Losha: I've had to switch to level 3 on occasion when the X config got messed up. The move to Upstart is a bit like adding Pulse audio in the sound system. I had no problem with run levels or audio until Upstart and PulseAudio were added. | 19:49 |
| erUSUL | !rquirements | 19:49 |
| Losha | Plugh: and so say all of us. Trust me, you're not alone.... | 19:49 |
| zoidfarb | Plugh, I generally agree about Puleadio, but Upstart has actually seemed a lot faster for me | 19:49 |
| Oer | Aciid, ubuntu music store plugins are only available for lucid | 19:49 |
| Losha | zoidfarb: temporarily rename /usr/bin/ssh-agent to /usr/bin/ssh-agent.orig. *That* should fix it... | 19:50 |
| === aRC is now known as Guest58451 | ||
| Aciid | Oer: nvm, i already got it working | 19:50 |
| zoidfarb | Losha, haha, I hadn't even considered going nuclear on it like that. Good idea. However, as I understand it, ssh-agent launches GNOME (and everything else on the system) as a client to itself. | 19:50 |
| zoidfarb | Losha, is renaming it going to brutally break my system? | 19:51 |
| Plugh | zoidfarb: Not sure how it made the boot faster but booting is faster. It still has to run all the files that used to be in init.d so I'm not sure what it does differently. Something to look in to later. | 19:51 |
| debabrata_ | what might be the problem if Ubuntu not able to recognise my Ethernet device | 19:51 |
| Plugh | debabrata_: missing device driver (ie. no kernel module loaded for the device). | 19:51 |
| Losha | zoidfarb: I won't like to you, I can't guarantee it won't stop X coming up. Might be better off with -D then... | 19:51 |
| Losha | zoidfarb: like -> lie | 19:51 |
| debabrata_ | <Plugh> How to fix it | 19:52 |
| erUSUL | debabrata_: you have to manually load the driver or there is no driver for it | 19:52 |
| erUSUL | debabrata_: lspci | grep -i net | 19:52 |

| FloodBot3 | zoidfarb: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 19:55 |
| Losha | zoidfarb: /etc/X11/Xsession.d/90x11-common_ssh-agent checks to see if /usr/bin/ssh-agent exists first, so going nuclear will probably do 'the right thing', assuming ubuntu hasn't completely instituted some new mechanism.... | 19:56 |

| Losha | zoidfarb: I don't see any sign of ssh-agent. I wonder now if ssh-add is lying to you (instead of me :-) | 20:17 |
| stoneman | Losha: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/qnHzKbHN | 20:18 |
| Losha | stoneman: looks like a key of some sort. Have you edited any startup files recently? A typo might easily cause this... | 20:18 |
| crucialhoax | llutz, It is old. I like to use the newest one. One of the commands is ./jre-x-x-x-x then after that I have to input "yes" but in the script I have another command after that | 20:18 |
| llutz | crucialhoax: look at the "yes" command, it might help | 20:18 |
| zoidfarb | Losha, ssh-add definitely seems to lie to me before. When it claimed all the identities were deleted, and then "ssh-add -l" still shows a bunch | 20:18 |

| Xpistos|work | clrg: I want one with antivirus support and new versions of thundbird don't have it | 20:38 |
| karol_ | clrg: tried but half of distros didn't worked | 20:39 |
| clrg | Xpistos: What do you need antivirus for?? | 20:39 |
| Xpistos|work | clrg: to be on the safe side | 20:39 |
| karol_ | clrg: I can use pirated windows but it's slower and illegal | 20:39 |
| ZykoticK9 | Xpistos|work, you'll be hard pressed to find one with antivirus included... | 20:39 |
| karol_ | clrg: at least windows installs at all | 20:39 |
| Xpistos|work | Am I just being to paranoid? | 20:39 |
| monofonik | yes you are | 20:39 |

| amani | ubuntu new version will be relese soon is it true?? | 20:40 |
| clrg | karol_: Sounds like your PC is *really* old.. Maybe there's a problem with the graphics driver. Have you tried booting without the gui? | 20:40 |
| monofonik | amani: yes | 20:40 |
| sean_ | ./ | 20:40 |
| ZykoticK9 | amani, 10 days from today | 20:40 |

| guntbert | !lucid | Maletor | 20:40 |
| ubottu | Maletor: Lucid Lynx is the codename for Ubuntu 10.04, due April 29th, 2010 - Lucid is NOT released and is NOT stable - Discussion and support only in #ubuntu+1 - Development Schedule: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LucidReleaseSchedule | 20:40 |
| ZykoticK9 | Maletor, #ubuntu+1 for Lucid support | 20:40 |
| enthusiast | Lucid is very great | 20:40 |
| Pici | monofonik: #ubuntu+1 please | 20:40 |
| Xpistos|work | ZykoticK9: I know linux doesn't but I get email from people using windows and we all know how that goes. I don't want to spread anything | 20:40 |
| toad_ | there are known remote root's in mantis 1.1. have they been fixed in ubuntu's mantis package, or will it remain vulnerable until lucid? | 20:40 |
| karol_ | clrg: how much of disk space takes the installation of ubuntu without any additional soft? | 20:40 |
| guntbert | enthusiast: #ubuntu+1 please | 20:41 |
| rsr | how can I force an update to a package in 9.10? I wan´t to install gnash 0.8.7. The repositories only have 0.8.6 | 20:41 |
| clrg | karol_: I'd say 4-5GB. If you cut it down, maybe 3 | 20:41 |
| javatexan | ubuntu running on mac mini | 20:41 |
| ZykoticK9 | Xpistos|work, i just don't think you'll find a linux email client with anti-virus is all. | 20:41 |
| Xpistos|work | ok | 20:41 |
| enthusiast | Karol_: about 5 GB at least | 20:41 |
| Xpistos|work | I guess I will stick with thunderbird | 20:41 |
| Pici | !requirements | karol_ | 20:41 |
| ubottu | karol_: Hardware requirements to install, boot and comfortably use Ubuntu are listed at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SystemRequirements - For a !flavor with lower requirements, see !Xubuntu | 20:41 |
| javatexan | ubuntu running on mac mini??? | 20:41 |
| karol_ | clrg: then it's not really for my comp | 20:42 |
| BluesKaj | !virus | Xpistos|work | 20:42 |
| ubottu | Xpistos|work: A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21 | 20:42 |
| karol_ | clrg: 1,5 GB ~ HD? | 20:42 |
| clrg | Xpistos: You won't. Even if you do receive a virus, it won't be able to execute on Linux and do any harm. | 20:42 |
| karol_ | clrg: so what distro can I use?:< | 20:42 |
| jubi | hi! the my sister's ubuntu don't shut down. it go away of the grafic interface but it stys in a black back that says " ubuntu 9.10 victoria-desktop tty " /n " victoria_desktop login: [24156.80332] System halted.

| Xpistos|work | thanks guys | 20:42 |
| enthusiast | Karol:, Five (5) GB may be sufficient | 20:42 |
| clrg | karol_: Damn Small Linux, maybe Xubuntu | 20:42 |
| amani | in my boot screen there show two linux kernal what to do? | 20:43 |
| sean_ | ./cat | 20:43 |
| Gremnon | amani, choose the one with the highest version number, that does not have (Recovery Mode) on the end | 20:43 |
| brummbaer | amani, pick the one that works. ;) | 20:43 |
| Gremnon | or that | 20:43 |
| enthusiast | Karol, Even Ubuntu 10.04 does't require tonnes of hard drive space. | 20:43 |
| amani | can i uninstall them | 20:44 |
| karol_ | clrg: damn small linux is just shitty | 20:44 |
| clrg | karol_: I just checked Xubuntu, they say you need 2.0GB | 20:44 |

| Pici | toad_: Do you have a CVE for the mantis issue? | 20:44 |
| clrg | karol_: What are you going to need the PC for? | 20:44 |
| karol_ | clrg: server | 20:45 |
| Pici | karol_: We do not support anything other than Ubuntu here, if you need advice for other distros, please use ##linux | 20:45 |
| realcoolguy | amani: the newest one is the default option, You can leave them on there without wasting too much space. Someone correct me if I'm wrong but I think Ubuntu does a better job of cleaning out older versions for you now? (so you won't get a list of 30, but you'll have a couple in case something went wrong with a kernel update, you can pick an older version) | 20:45 |
| jubi | .. | 20:45 |
| enthusiast | Ubottu: thanks for reminding us the rules | 20:45 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 20:45 |
| clrg | karol_: Then use Ubuntu Server Edition. Should take less disk space, since there's no need for a GUI | 20:45 |
| karol_ | Pici: you know what? I'm not talking with you so could you keep that to yourself? | 20:45 |
| karol_ | clrg: I will try to do it | 20:46 |
| clrg | karol_: But seriously; a server with a 450MHz processor? The users will hate you | 20:46 |
| karol_ | clrg: anyway thanks for help | 20:46 |
| karol_ | clrg: Everybody hates me :D | 20:46 |
| enthusiast | Can someone show me how to tell grub 2 from listing my recovery partition in it's boot list at start up. This may prevent accidental PC restore... | 20:47 |

| rsr | I know how to install a package, packages in the repositories are all outdated | 20:49 |
| powertool08 | enthusiast: The easy way is to edit /boot/grub/grub.cfg as root and delete the entry, however, it will most likely come back after a kernel update. Not sure how to stop that. | 20:49 |
| Pici | rsr: Yes, they are outdated. And they most likely won't be updated. | 20:49 |
| Pici | !latest | rsr | 20:49 |
| ubottu | rsr: Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are: fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports. | 20:49 |
| sab | ZykoticK9, getting this erro..http://paste.ubuntu.com/418819/;can you please tell me what to do? | 20:49 |
| Gremnon | rsr, if you really want the latest, and don't want to have to wait for it to be packaged, have a look at the GNash website and read how to compile it from source | 20:49 |
| ZykoticK9 | rsr, you can search https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+ppas for an updated version | 20:49 |

| Next1 | I have a weird thing going on. If I type the word transducer in google search in firefox or chrome the browser will disappear. It crashes without a trace. Anyone heard of this? | 20:50 |
| rsr | thanks | 20:50 |
| ZykoticK9 | sab, sorry haven't run into that java problem before - but looks like you have some manual downloading to do as the pastebin suggests | 20:50 |
| enthusiast | powertool08: thanks. I'm still looking for a way to mask my recovery partition from grub 2... | 20:50 |

I highly suggest that you file a bug here https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mantis and poke the Ubuntu and/or Debian maintainers. | 20:53 |

| Next1 | realcoolguy: Everything seems fine. I rebooted just to see and it still does it. I'll start a mem test before I go home tonight. | 20:55 |
| Pici | Stalafin: Take a look at the manpage for setterm, I think what you want is in there. | 20:55 |
| WXZ | like on each diff. workspace a new panel layout and desktop | 20:55 |
| bondiblueos9 | is there any way to copy a file such that if there is an error the partial destination file is removed? | 20:55 |
| realcoolguy | Next1: I guess you can try launching from the boot-cd and get a clean environment, that might help narrow your problem down to hardware or software. | 20:55 |
| Stalafin | Pici: likely; however, where is the info saved? | 20:55 |
| Stalafin | Pici: i guess setterm -blank off; where can i make that permanent though? i guess bashrc, but for example in my distri the default seems to be off anyhow | 20:56 |
| bondiblueos9 | I'm cp ing files from discs that are scratched-up, and I only want to keep the fully successfully copied files; and I'm trying to automate it | 20:56 |

| MilkmanDan | When it's said that Desktop LTS gets 3 years of support and Server gets 5, does that mean that the Desktop-y apps like Gnome/KDE and browsers are what drops off the update list? Or is there something deeper going on? | 20:56 |
| Next1 | realcoolguy: Very strange, just the word transducer??? I'll test everything out. | 20:56 |
| clrg | sab: Visit the URL provided and download the file as suggested. The message tells you exactly what do do! | 20:56 |

| bigbang12 | how to format partition with ntfs from ubuntu | 20:59 |
| h00k | bigbang12: you can use gparted | 21:00 |
| clrg | bigbang12: Use windows to do that. No Linux operating system needs NTFS | 21:00 |
| clrg | h00k: gparted uses an old version of NTFS. Vista and 7 won't install on it and will try to format it again. | 21:00 |
| Next1 | realcoolguy: I can't google the error because if I try it crashes. | 21:01 |

| h00k | levar: why would you want to do that? | 21:02 |

| levar | im new to linux sorry | 21:02 |
| Oer | 20Tb x 20 | 21:02 |
| mneptok | levar: that's impossible, as some packages conflict with others. | 21:02 |
| brad_ | so when I use the Gnome GUI to "share" a folder, is that going to use SMB (samba)? | 21:02 |
| clrg | levar: Just install the packages you need. You can't install everything. | 21:03 |
| ZykoticK9 | brad_, yes | 21:03 |
| levar | does xubuntu have samba | 21:03 |
| h00k | levar: if you're new, you also might want to check out #ubuntu-beginners | 21:03 |
| clrg | brad_: Yes. | 21:03 |
| MilkmanDan | levar: All versions can install Samba, yes. | 21:03 |
| realcoolguy | Next1: you could try a non-graphical web browser, links, lynx, e-links to try and get around your google problem as a short term solution. | 21:03 |

| FFForever | Is it possible to sync iphone os 3.1.3 with ubuntu? | 21:10 |
| clrg | sab: Well, I don't see why. If you are in the right directory, typed the filename correctly, and typed the target directory (/tmp) correctly, then it has to work. There must be an error. | 21:11 |
| guntbert | sab: did you try mv jdk<tab> ? should give you a large part of the file name | 21:11 |
| sab | guntbert, yes | 21:11 |
| yshavit | FFForever: I've found out how to connect my iPod Touch with 3.0, but I haven't found out a good syncing program | 21:11 |
| guntbert | sab: and what happened? | 21:11 |
| FFForever | yshavit, amarok or banshee would be nice | 21:12 |

| piccardTE | hi, the fams in my laptop don't work i suspect is because sth replace bios hw management cose when in gub prompt they run properly, any ideas? | 21:13 |
| clrg | BusMaster: That would not be a guarantee that the leaked memory is purged. | 21:13 |
| h00k | piccardTE: is your machine overheating? | 21:13 |
| piccardTE | yes | 21:14 |
| guntbert | sab: no - I was asking about the part immediately after <tab> - you will get a large part but not a complete file name - you have to press <tab> a second time for a choice, then you continue until the file name is really complete | 21:14 |
| BusMaster | clrg, but if i reboot the vm, won't it be purged? the apps leaking them will essentially be using the vm's memory and if I reboot it... ? | 21:14 |
| MilkmanDan | clrg: How would it not guarantee that? | 21:14 |
| dabaR | yshavit: you're telling me this thing actually lets one put pirated music onto their iPhone? | 21:15 |
| sab | guntbert, yes its works now..:-) | 21:15 |
| h00k | !pm | piccardTE | 21:15 |
| ubottu | piccardTE: Please ask your questions in the channel so that other people can help you, benefit from your questions and answers, and ensure that you're not getting bad advice. Please note that some people find it rude to be sent a PM without being asked for permission to do so first. | 21:15 |
| guntbert | sab: problem solved? what was wrong? | 21:15 |
| h00k | piccardTE: I'm not sure , keep checking with the channel | 21:15 |
| clrg | MilkmanDan: If you reboot a machine, without powering it off and waiting say 2 minutes, it is possible to recover data stored in the RAM modules. If you reboot a VM, it will just free the RAM it's claimed to run it, then boot again, claim some RAM (not necessarily the same blocks...) and so on. | 21:15 |
| yshavit | dabaR: I'm telling you it lets you put mp3s on your iphone. Whether you pay for those is a DADT issue as far as I'm concerned | 21:15 |
| piccardTE | ok | 21:15 |
| dabaR | yshavit: I had no idea it can be done. Sweet. | 21:16 |
| MilkmanDan | clrg: I think you misunderstand what BusMaster is asking, then. | 21:16 |
| yshavit | dabaR: relatively newish, I think :) | 21:16 |
| sab | guntbert, not yet | 21:16 |
| clrg | MilkmanDan: He wants to purge the leaked memory? | 21:16 |
| MilkmanDan | clrg: Yes. | 21:16 |
| MilkmanDan | Rebooting a virtual machine will certainly accomplish that. | 21:17 |
| clrg | MilkmanDan: Definitely not. Do you know how memory allocation in the Linux kernel works? | 21:17 |
| h00k | clrg: the memory allocated by the vm will be clean once the vm is rebooted, and then re-allocated once the vm is started. this will effectively work, it may not be the best solution, but it works. | 21:17 |
| guntbert | sab: could you please be a little more verbose? I find it hard to understand your situation | 21:17 |
| BusMaster | clrg, MilkmanDan here is an example. I run spotify under wine which makes gnome-settings-daemon leak memory..it then brings my whole machine to a halt..so I though running spotify under wine in a vm will help. the vm's memory is used up, then i reboot hte vm | 21:18 |
| clrg | h00k: The memory is not clean. It is marked clean. The data is still there, waiting to be overwritten by the next program claiming the blocks. | 21:18 |
| sab | guntbert, i was trying sudo dpkg --configure -a and getting this error.........http://paste.ubuntu.com/418819/ | 21:18 |
| NinoScript | I have a problem with xmodmap -> http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/Fi2yts5D | 21:18 |
| h00k | clrg: but its not allocated and is therefore 'free.' this is the desired result. | 21:18 |
| clrg | h00k: Then you confuse the terms "purged" as in wiped, cleaned, and "free", as in unclaimed. | 21:19 |
| MilkmanDan | BusMaster: That sounds good. | 21:19 |
| BusMaster | MilkmanDan, thanks..I'll try it then | 21:19 |
| Ubuntu-User | Hi | 21:19 |
| guntbert | sab: so you downloaded the file and tried to copy/move it ? | 21:20 |
| Emptymag | has anyone gotten any version of ubuntu to run on the newest macbook pros? | 21:20 |
| BusMaster | MilkmanDan, is there a way the leaking memory can "escape" out of the vm and start eating the memory in my host machine? | 21:20 |
| sab | guntbert, yes thats i did min ago,was jdk..... | 21:20 |
| MilkmanDan | BusMaster: There shouldn't be, no. | 21:20 |
| Emptymag | I tried today but it never actually booted to live | 21:20 |
| BusMaster | Emptymag, i'm running it on macbookpro5,5 no sure if that's the latest one though | 21:20 |
| MilkmanDan | It shouldn't really escape Wine, either. | 21:20 |
| * clrg has to go | 21:20 | |
| Emptymag | no i have the new 7,1 just came today | 21:21 |
| h00k | BusMaster: consider using programs that don't have memory leaks | 21:21 |
| Emptymag | btw its beautiful | 21:21 |
| BusMaster | h00k, i _want_ to run spotify..there is no native linux client. It works under wine, but the combination leaks. I just have to live with it | 21:21 |
| guntbert | sab: and then you said: "yes its works now..:-)" - what worked? | 21:21 |
| sab | guntbert, mv | 21:22 |
| Ubuntu-User | I can't connect to my ubuntu by nokia e51 using putty via ssh. I can connect using another one computer. I have log, so where i can paste it? | 21:22 |
| Emptymag | pastie.org | 21:22 |
| realcoolguy | BusMaster: Would it leak under a regular windows OS?... might want to consider a Windows VM? | 21:22 |
| BusMaster | MilkmanDan, unfortunately, it does escape out of wine https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-media/+bug/485923 or I am misunderstanding something | 21:22 |
| crucialhoax | I installed ubuntu but did not export my pgp key, now I cannot decrypt my pgp files. Any suggestions? | 21:23 |
| guntbert | sab: I have to tell you that your *very* short answers are stretching ma patience a bit - so the mv did work and the file is in /tmp now? | 21:23 |
| BusMaster | realcoolguy, it won't leak under windows..but I tried to run windows 7 in a VM with 1gig ram (my laptop has 2 gigs ram) and both my laptop and win7 vm became dead slow. so I am thinking maye ubuntu minimal will work with 512 megs ram | 21:23 |

| glen_ | Hi, i am using "places > search for files" in ubuntu, in the search phrase i am typing "*\**" - should this not find files with *'s in the middle of the name? | 21:25 |

| jcrawford | guys does Ubuntu not recognize a HDMI display? | 21:26 |
| crucialhoax | llutz: correct. well then, my mistake I think I can recreate some of them, but some not. | 21:26 |
| Kangarooo | h00k: thx finaly somebody answer :) | 21:26 |
| jcrawford | I have a card which had DVI out and HDMI out and would like to use 2 displays but I could not even get Ubuntu to see a single display connected via HDMI | 21:26 |
| h00k | Kangarooo: I'm not sure if that is what you are looking for, but might be a start | 21:27 |
| guntbert | sab: please paste the output of ls -l /tmp/jdk* (if that is one or two lines, else use !pastebin) | 21:27 |
| MilkmanDan | crucialhoax: Depending on what you've done with the drive you may be able to pay for someone to recover the old files. | 21:27 |
| MilkmanDan | But that may not be worth it to you. | 21:27 |
| realcoolguy | jcrawford: I've had no problems with Ubuntu's detection of HDMI displays. Interesting you haven't been able to get them to talk. I was a bit shocked at how well it just 'worked'. What sort of displays are you hooking them up to? | 21:27 |
| crucialhoax | MilkmanDan: They weren't that important. I will deal with it. I thought I had everything covered. | 21:28 |
| jrz | hey guys :P | 21:28 |

| realcoolguy | mac_linux: Overheating with even 100% cpu usage is not good. You might want to check your fans, and heatsinks to make sure everything is spinning and in order (not completely clogged with dust for example). The graphical system monitor might be the easiest to use, otherwise you can use the ps command to get a list of processes running (you'll need to add a modifier to that command). | 21:41 |

| tmh_ | or in this case, if you just create an ad-hoc network you can't connect straight because the phone doesn't get an IP address from the ad-hoc network | 22:02 |

| Typos_King | dekroning: then you don't have it :), but you can make one to override settings, if you want to know 'display' values, you can check with -> xdpyinfo | 22:38 |
| taree | zaxonspox: not the ones that rely on hal/evdev | 22:38 |
| vladimir_ | mdajid: when you maximize a window, you can't see those buttons, correct? | 22:38 |

| vladimir_ | i think that's what's giving you trouble | 22:39 |
| realcoolguy | Spoils: I would suggest taking a look at the ddrescue utility. (like the dd command, except it won't thrash your failing disk until it gets everything it can off of it.) The LinuxLeo site (even though it' for forensics) has excellent instructions. The pdf is here http://www.linuxleo.com/Docs/linuxintro-LEFE-3.78.pdf and the page to start looking at would be 113. Feel free to read the whole chapter on disk imaging however. | 22:39 |

| Typos_King | picard1421: http://sourceforge.net/search/?type_of_search=soft&words=conferencing <--- check there | 23:02 |
| Ven]n | zaxonspox, doesnt look like it.. there is no grub | 23:02 |
| Ven]n | even when booting normal harddrive which is running windows | 23:02 |
| Ven]n | but I need to make the usb key bootable, dont I? | 23:02 |
| Ven]n | though, it shows available when booting so Im thinking it IS bootable | 23:03 |
| zaxonspox | Ven]n #1 Flash Drive is bootable, but #2 FD isnt? | 23:03 |
| SeaPhor | Ven]n, can you examine the drive from another OS or even a live cd?" | 23:03 |
| Ven]n | yep | 23:03 |
| Ven]n | hold on a sec | 23:04 |
| Ven]n | ah, grub IS installed to main drive | 23:04 |
| Typos_King | Ven]n: anyhow.... you may want to install grub in the usb stick for it to boot into it, mount your usb stick with ubuntu in it, and do a say, it mounts as /dev/sdb1, then do a -> sudo grub-install /dev/sdb1; when done, try it, make sure bios checks the usb devices before hd | 23:04 |
| WebDawgII | sup | 23:04 |
| WebDawgII | When I install ubuntu does it erase the entire drive or does it just change the partitions? | 23:05 |
| WebDawgII | Then write data? | 23:05 |
| brah- | you can choose where you want to install ubuntu | 23:05 |
| WebDawgII | I know this. | 23:05 |
| brah- | on what existing parition | 23:05 |
| Typos_King | Ven]n: it'll give you a warning that you shouldn't stick grub in a particular partition and such, nevermind it though :) | 23:05 |
| zaxonspox | WebDawg it is up to You, what you choose in partition step , it will be done | 23:05 |
| Ven]n | Typos_King, my setup is to press 0 when booting and then have the option of choosing USB | 23:05 |
| WebDawgII | But i installed ubuntu on a drive that I need to recover data from. | 23:05 |
| SeaPhor | Ven]n, what Typos_King said, just do a fdisk -l fires and MAKE SURE /dev/sd** is the drive you want | 23:06 |
| WebDawgII | Does it format the partition that I create? | 23:06 |
| Ven]n | if I now start the copmuter without usb key it says error : no such device | 23:06 |
| Ven]n | hehe | 23:06 |
| Ven]n | grub rescue> | 23:06 |
| WebDawgII | or does it just create the partition? | 23:06 |
| SeaPhor | *first | 23:06 |
| Oer | WebDawgII, both | 23:06 |
| WebDawgII | Oer, so it zeros the drive? | 23:06 |
| Ven]n | how do I remove grub easily from the main drive? | 23:07 |
| Ven]n | as it now needs the usb key to boot | 23:07 |
| Ven]n | hehe | 23:07 |
| Typos_King | Ven]n: right, cuz is looking for the missing 'grub' files/folder, is trying to find them from the usb stick which isn't plugged in or isn't mapped as hd0 | 23:07 |
| Typos_King | Ven]n: what's in the 'main drive'? vista? win7? | 23:07 |
| Ven]n | win7 | 23:08 |
| paradoxx | My current installation is broken. How does one do an ubuntu recovery from a live cd. | 23:08 |
| erUSUL | paradoxx: depends on what is broken | 23:08 |
| Oer | WebDawgII, ubuntu can increase a partition, make the ext3/4 filesystem and format it. | 23:08 |
| Typos_King | Ven]n: not sure you can remove it per se, you will need to boot using the win7 bootable cd/dvd and restore NTLDR boot loader back in | 23:08 |
| zaxonspox | paradoxx in which way broken? | 23:08 |
| WebDawgII | Thats what I am asking Oer does it quick format by default or full format? | 23:09 |
| Typos_King | paradoxx: define 'broken' | 23:09 |
| Oer | WebDawgII, only if it is vista/win7 , let win7 increase the partition to be safe | 23:09 |
| Ven]n | I knew I shouldve chosen the advanced settings and not "go go go, install ubuntu" :p | 23:09 |
| paradoxx | erUSUL, zaxonspox, Typos_King I was installing application updates. And now it won't start | 23:09 |
| Oer | no automatic fuill format, you get a choice screen | 23:10 |
| zaxonspox | Ven]n: instalation by Win not linux :P'go go go' is in | 23:10 |
| WebDawgII | I installed an OS over an encrypted drive. | 23:10 |
| Typos_King | paradoxx: boot from the live-cd and try giving it a -> sudo e2fsck -c /dev/sda1; assuming your installation is at sda1 :) | 23:10 |
| WebDawgII | I wanna try and decrypt it | 23:10 |
| Ven]n | hmm | 23:10 |
| WebDawgII | and recover data. | 23:10 |
| paradoxx | erUSUL, zaxonspox, Typos_King I also tried starting previous kernels and I still have the problem. The computer gets to the Ubuntu loading screen and nothing more | 23:10 |
| paradoxx | Typos_King, It says that command not found. I'll install it | 23:11 |
| Oer | WebDawgII, install over a encrypted drive, i think that is not a good idea | 23:11 |
| zaxonspox | paradoxx: while in Ubuntu loading screen press CTRL+ALT+F1 to see what is going on | 23:11 |
| SeaPhor | or "esc" | 23:12 |
| paradoxx | zaxonspox, I tried that also, but it just gives me a terminal with flashing "_" no login | 23:12 |
| Ven]n | Typos_King, think I can use that supergrubdisk and chose one of the windows options | 23:12 |
| paradoxx | Typos_King, WHat is the package name for that command, it says it can't find it | 23:12 |
| Typos_King | Ven]n: on another note, if you 'data dump' the mbr before any changes, you can always put it back, for example I install say win32, then I do a -> sudo dd if=/dev/sda of=sda_mbr.img and that backs it up, and can always put it back with -> sudo dd if=sda_mbr.img of=/dev/sda thus sticking back NTLDR or whatever it was in the mbr, grub/else | 23:12 |
| Typos_King | paradoxx: boot from the live-cd and try giving it a -> sudo e2fsck -c /dev/sda1; assuming your installation is at sda1 :) | 23:12 |
| zaxonspox | paradoxx: do you have a GRUB botloader menu? | 23:13 |
| Ven]n | confusing.. ;) | 23:13 |
| Typos_King | paradoxx: e2fsck is in the cd | 23:13 |
| auf_ | hello, my computer freezes if i set visual effects to normal or extra after installing last version of ubuntu ? | 23:13 |
| Typos_King | Ven]n: you don't happen to have 'Hiren's bootable cd', do you? | 23:14 |
| auf_ | when i tooltip popup appear it's freezes | 23:14 |
| forestbear | hi | 23:14 |
| Typos_King | allo forestbear | 23:14 |

| Typos_King | auf_ then don't set them :) hehehe | 23:14 |
| lost | hi all, i have received the new mpeg update from ubuntu dev now flash is working but not all of them | 23:14 |
| Ven]n | Typos_King, I do, but I prefer the supergrubdisk I can easily install with unetbootin :) | 23:15 |
| Ven]n | Typos_King, as its a netbook without a CDROM | 23:15 |
| paradoxx | Typos_King, That commany fails. Returns http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/Vsd7eDSC | 23:15 |
| Ven]n | supergrubdisk fixes mbr | 23:15 |
| Ven]n | ;) | 23:15 |
| auf_ | Typos_King, i want to install compiz effects what i can do ? | 23:15 |
| paradoxx | zaxonspox, yea I do | 23:15 |
| duffydack | Typos_King, thats a horrible way.. it doesnt backup just the mbr, it backups every part of the drive, even empty space. Clonezilla is a much better solution with compression and excluding empty space.. | 23:15 |
| === marienz is now known as Guest64875 | ||
| Typos_King | Ven]n: har har har, hiren's cd has an option from the menu to say -> windows booot [with ntldr] <-- or so, that one boots in win32 when NTLDR is not in the mbr | 23:16 |
| duffydack | bs=512 count=1 backs up the mbr. | 23:16 |

| Ven]n | nah, didnt work, same blinking - in top left corner | 23:20 |
| Ven]n | no grub showing up | 23:20 |
| Typos_King | paradoxx: it means your installation is not at sda1, check with -> sudo fdisk -l; where it's at | 23:21 |
| paradoxx | Typos_King, Ok, turns out i did it to the wrong partition. It is checking now. I don't think it is a hardware issue though | 23:21 |
| ddrj | how i find out wat kernel my distro is runnin? thx | 23:21 |

| nimbiotics | how do i install drivers found in a .tar.gz file? | 23:23 |
| zaxonspox | auf_: type in terminal glxgears | 23:24 |
| Ven]n | zaxonspox, too much work, hehe.. ill do the grub-install --force and then fix mbr with supergrubdisk ;) | 23:24 |
| Typos_King | paradoxx: that.... can't say.... I'd not do an update myself... I'd do a full install of it, and then install my packages :), I do back up all my .debs | 23:24 |
| SeaPhor | nimbiotics, more than likely you don't need to,,, what driver? for what hardware? | 23:24 |
| zaxonspox | auf_: it shoul show you animation of gears, if it wont freez you pc | 23:24 |

| auf_ | zaxonspox, it showed animated gears | 23:25 |
| auf_ | so ? | 23:25 |
| Ven]n | hmm.. | 23:25 |
| SeaPhor | nimbiotics, again ... more than likely you don't need to,,, what driver? for what hardware? | 23:25 |
| auf_ | zaxonspox, 4020 frames in 5.0 seconds | 23:25 |
| Ven]n | Typos_King, so now I installed grub to the usb key but it still wont show up when booting | 23:26 |
| zaxonspox | auf_: didnt freez? | 23:26 |
| auf_ | yes | 23:26 |
| nimbiotics | zvacet: for wireless card, im trying to use aircrack-ng | 23:26 |
| paradoxx | Typos_King, on another note. How did you backup all your debs? | 23:26 |
| zaxonspox | Ven]n: grub is in mbr but no menu | 23:26 |
| auf_ | zaxonspox, yes it didnot | 23:26 |
| zaxonspox | auf_: if you choose axtra effects can you shwitch by pressing CTRL+ALT+F1? | 23:27 |
| Ven]n | zaxonspox, thing is, I want it on the usb key.. so grub only shows if I choose to boot computer from usb | 23:27 |
| nimbiotics | SeaPhor: for wireless card, im trying to use aircrack-ng | 23:27 |
| Typos_King | paradoxx: images are usually the best solutions for this cases :), thus one expects folks to have things back up for any discrepancy should it occurr, | 23:27 |
| SeaPhor | nimbiotics, what card? what does lspci -nn say? | 23:28 |
| paradoxx | zaxonspox, Typos_King I'm currently running a live cd. Is there a way that I can update packages on the local installation from the livecd? | 23:28 |
| WXZ | is there a way to setup different panels for each workspace? | 23:28 |
| auf_ | zaxonspox, no my pc hange up and i can not do anything but restarting it manually ! | 23:28 |
| paradoxx | Typos_King, I can access all my files etc via the live cd. | 23:28 |
| Ven]n | Typos_King, any other suggestions than grub-isntall? :) | 23:28 |
| Typos_King | paradoxx: whenever something gets installed using the package manager, it dumps the debs under /var/cache/apt/archive I grab them from there :), you can also use AptOnCD http://aptoncd.sourceforge.net/ | 23:28 |
| SeaPhor | nimbiotics, have you looked in System>Administration>Hardware Drivers,,,,,, AFTER enabling the extended extras and getting all updates? | 23:29 |

| Kentrel | Hey, is it possible to have some of my drives automatically mounted when I log in under my main user account, but other users would have to put in the admin password | 23:32 |
| Typos_King | paradoxx: e2fsck -c; does a 'disk check' per se, it checks/fixes files system integrity and checks for 'bad blocks'.... so... that'd fix that, sometimes it may be doable to fix an install, but often may take you 20times longer than a reinstall | 23:32 |
| Ven]n | Typos_King, I can run the grub-install from the same mounted OS as im installing to, right? | 23:32 |

| paradoxx | Typos_King, Or rather, could i do a reinstall without deleating my current data. I have my home directory on the same partition as the os | 23:34 |
| Ven]n | Typos_King, could that be why its not working? | 23:34 |

| paradoxx | zaxonspox, does the default installation do that automatically | 23:35 |
| auf_ | zaxonspox, so? | 23:35 |

| polydeuces1 | haha, okay thanks. I'm running ubuntu 9.10 netbook remix, and randomly it just cuts to a black screen and I have to restart. anyone have any idea what to do? | 23:45 |
| zaxonspox | paradoxx: swap depends on size of RAM | 23:45 |
| FTMichael | I just upgraded from Karmic to Lucid and now instead of a login screen, I just get an empty black screen. The grub menu won't open for me, for reasons unknown. It does say 'grub loading' shortly before it craps out. Someone suggested editing grub.cfg, which I've opened, but I don't know exactly what to do to it. | 23:45 |
| Losha | paradoxx: is it a laptop that you want to suspend? Then twice the RAM i.e. 6GB. If not, you can get away with less e.g. 3GB. For light use, it might not swap at all, and you won't need a swap partition. You can monitor swap usage after you install by using 'conky'... | 23:45 |

| Ven]n | yes | 23:47 |

| tijucas | ok | 23:47 |
| tijucas | four lines.. | 23:47 |
| Typos_King | Ven]n: what's it in that session? sdb1? | 23:47 |
| rafaelsoaresbr | paradoxx, <sizeofRAM> + 256Mb | 23:47 |
| Ven]n | Typos_King, though its actually a live usb | 23:47 |
| zaxonspox | Losha "who" will need such a big SWAP? if you want to suspend SWAP should be in size of RAM | 23:47 |
| Ven]n | Typos_King, the live "cd" is sdb1 | 23:48 |
| Ven]n | Typos_King, mounted on "/cdrom" | 23:48 |
| Losha | zaxonspox: I forget. The old guideline was twice the ram for swap, until RAM got so big that that equation didn't really hold any longer. Now the best thing to do is be conservative and monitor swap usage till you know your machine better... | 23:48 |
| Typos_King | Ven]n: what about ... heheh.... ok... what device is it the usb you want grub at? sdb2? | 23:48 |
| Ven]n | Typos_King, the usb key with the installation is currently sdc1 | 23:48 |
| Ven]n | sdc1 | 23:48 |
| zaxonspox | Losha: now your make sens again | 23:49 |
| Typos_King | Ven]n: ok, one sec, lemme paste something | 23:49 |
| Ven]n | ok | 23:49 |
| Losha | paradoxx: as you can see, there's not much consensus on swap sizing... | 23:50 |
| Typos_King | Ven]n: -> http://paste2.org/p/782268 <--- it needs to be done in a 'chroot' session :) | 23:51 |
| tijucas | hi. is somebody having trouble opening 'hidden' files? | 23:51 |
| Ven]n | chroot? | 23:51 |
| Typos_King | Ven]n: yes, a 'installation' logged session, thus you had the grub error before :) | 23:52 |
| Ven]n | ok | 23:52 |
| Ven]n | trying | 23:52 |
| zaxonspox | tijucas: like what? what is your problem? | 23:52 |
| Typos_King | k | 23:52 |
| Typos_King | tijucas: no I | 23:52 |
| Losha | robokop: I don't know how you'd send a null byte. I don't think netcat understands any escape chars... | 23:53 |
| tijucas | zaxonspox: eg $ cat .bashrc -> no such file or directory | 23:53 |
| tijucas | zaxonspox: but the file exists | 23:53 |
| zaxonspox | tijucas: FROM where running command? type pwd | 23:54 |
| Losha | tijucas: what about cat ~/.bashrc ? | 23:54 |
| robokop | Losha: has xterm perhaps some escape chars? | 23:54 |
| tijucas | Losha: don't work | 23:54 |
| zaxonspox | tijucas: type pwd and paste it here | 23:54 |
| Ven]n | Typos_King, got the same error now | 23:54 |
| tijucas | diego@timon:~$ pwd | 23:54 |
| tijucas | /home/diego | 23:54 |
| Ven]n | the blocklists thing | 23:55 |
| Ven]n | should I use --force ? | 23:55 |
| tijucas | diego@timon:~$ ls .bashrc | 23:55 |
| tijucas | .bashrc | 23:55 |
| Losha | robokop: Not that I know of. And Netcat just reads stdin. A great question, wish I knew the answer.... | 23:55 |
| tijucas | diego@timon:~$ cat .bashrc | 23:55 |
| tijucas | cat: .bashrc: Arquivo ou diretório não encontrado | 23:55 |
| tijucas | the system is in portuguese | 23:55 |
| tijucas | this is no such file or directory | 23:56 |
| zaxonspox | tijucas: type cat .<press TAB twice> | 23:56 |
| Outlier | To set up a quick minimal system to test on some ~1-2 year old hardware, would you recommend 8.04 or 9.10 ? | 23:56 |
| Ven]n | Typos_King, got the attempting to install grub to ..., embedding is not possible, only by blocklist, if you really want to, use --force | 23:56 |
| polydeuces | Greetings all, sorry I've been cutting in and out... I'm trying to fix this problem. I keep having random crashes (screen goes black, sound skips) Someone suggested restricted video drivers. I have an acer aspire one netbook with the 945 intel chipset family, is there a specific way to update the drivers? | 23:56 |
| Losha | tijucas: can you do an ls -la and paste the output to http://ubuntu.pastebin.com and tell us the url? | 23:56 |
| Ely | Hello everyone, whenever I open Firefox or Chrome browsers, they do not remember the last position on the screen, they go back and open to the left of my screen, anyway to make them remember the last position? thanks in advance. | 23:56 |
| Ven]n | ill do the force | 23:57 |
| tijucas | Losha: ls -a show all files | 23:57 |
| tijucas | but I cant open a file that starts with a dot | 23:57 |
| Losha | Outlier: 8.04 is very stable and for that reason, I would prefer it... | 23:57 |
| zaxonspox | Losha: is ubuntu.paste for registered paste/view? | 23:57 |
| tijucas | .vimrc .bashrc | 23:57 |
| zaxonspox | tijucas: type cat .<press TAB twice> | 23:57 |
| Losha | zaxonspox: I'm not sure. But it's a nuisance having to register just to paste things... | 23:57 |
| Outlier | Losha: sounds good. I guess as long as it recognizes the hardware, its new enough. | 23:58 |
| Ven]n | rebooting to test.. | 23:58 |
| moreia | Ack! I foolishly installed Shredder and Namoroka and I just want my old Thunderbird and Firefox back. I cant force the lower versions in synaptic, though: "E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages."/"E: Unable to lock the download directory" | 23:58 |
| Losha | tijucas: ls -al <-- show all files, long listing.... | 23:58 |
| gabrielcz | Hello all... | 23:58 |
| Typos_King | Ven]n: k | 23:58 |
| moreia | Not sure where to start solving that. | 23:58 |
| Dezine | I just installed the latest 10.04, nice by the way. I am wondering if the minimize buttons and stuff are supposed to be on the left? Or is that a bug? | 23:58 |
| gabrielcz | I just install a lamp box with ubuntu server 9.10 | 23:58 |
| Pici | Dezine : Please join #ubuntu+1 for Lucid/10.04 support/discussion. | 23:58 |
| Ven]n | Typos_King, no luck.. ill try again tomorrow | 23:58 |
| zaxonspox | Losha: few days ago someone paste there a code gave me a link and i couldn view it - sayed "Register" | 23:58 |
| Ven]n | Typos_King, thanks for your help | 23:58 |
| Dezine | Thanks Pici | 23:58 |
| aguitel | i am with live cd ,how check errors for bad sectors in the hd with terminal | 23:58 |
| gabrielcz | I have a question about apache multisites, I add a new site, and it will looks on default directory... | 23:59 |
| wabash | Hi. I am using 9.10. It's great, but some of the packages, namely sw dev packages, lag terribly behind their individual releases on their project websites. Is it possible to get packages for 10.04 and install them on a 9.10 box? | 23:59 |
| gabrielcz | any clue? | 23:59 |
| Losha | Outlier: 9.10 is reasonably stable by now, so in a pinch, it wouldn't really matter which you chose... | 23:59 |
| Typos_King | Ven]n: are you... sure the usb is set to boot first? odd | 23:59 |
| tijucas | Losha: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/BGJqTHuf | 23:59 |
| Losha | zaxonspox: another reason to avoid it. Though it's good to register a nick anyway... | 23:59 |
