| Jordan_U | limen_: There is data in these "bad" blocks that is required to play the video though. Once ddrescue has read the entire disk, skipping blocks with a bad crc, it goes back and tries reading smaller parts of the failed blocks to get what good data there is out of them. So at some point during the "splitting" passes the required bits will be filled in and the iso will suddently become playable. You can safely try playing the iso w | 00:00 |

| greezmunkey | spydmobile_: put your script inside of the script that starts the first service ;) | 00:02 |

| Jordan_U | limen_: The problem for DRM developers like Sony is that the real DRM (CSS) has been utterly useless for years, so they need to come up with something new, but still have it work with old legitamate DVD players. | 00:02 |
| stoiss_ | join #linux | 00:02 |
| timClicks | popo: try opening preferences > appearance & then dragging the theme from nautilus | 00:02 |
| drdozer | I've just upgraded to the new ubuntu pre-release | 00:02 |
| popo | timClicks, how do you know? | 00:02 |
| ogen | I would like to control the burn speed when I burn. Is this possible in brasero ?? | 00:02 |
| drdozer | since then, my machine has been permanently hitting the disk | 00:02 |
| spydmobile_ | greezmunkey: thansk but I was looking for something more specific to use in place of rc.local since it is broken in karmic | 00:03 |
| timClicks | popo: if it was, it would be in that folder | 00:03 |
| popo | timClicks, in compressed form? | 00:03 |
| ogen | I would like to control the burn speed when I burn. Is this possible in brasero ?? If not what program do I need? | 00:03 |
| timClicks | drdozer: try #ubuntu+1 | 00:03 |

| Typos_King | ogen: I saw you.... I... use k3b.. and in k3b I know where, so :| | 00:03 |
| stoiss_ | Hmm when trying to join this channel with my firewall on. it wont let me..the irc says its connecting at port 8001 but with that port open i cant.. does this use any other ports ? | 00:03 |
| timClicks | popo: yes | 00:04 |
| popo | timClicks, it wont allow me | 00:04 |
| Jordan_U | limen_: The result is things like this, where they introduce errors that *most* real DVD players happen to not be affected by. It's not perfect though, and many real DVD players can't play these disks either. It's really a shame that companies like Sony can get away with inflicting BS like this on their users. | 00:04 |
| ogen | Typos_King, k3b OK will install it and see. What a handicapped system this is. | 00:05 |
| greezmunkey | spydmobile_: what are you referencing that says rc.local is broken in 9.10 | 00:05 |
| stoiss_ | Uh.. and can anyone recommend me a good browser that will remove all traces on exit ? | 00:05 |
| Typos_King | heheh | 00:05 |
| Brimstones | ogen: If you cant run at max speed of what your bus can handle you should put the burner on a different bus (ide scsi etc) | 00:05 |
| limen_ | Jordan_U, jesus -_- things like this pisses me of | 00:05 |
| f31n | hey, hope someone is here online, ya know if they put the raid config tool out at ubuntu 9.10 or do i find this tool (at the installation) only at a lts cd? | 00:05 |

| inifile | hello, I can't find the the block size of a ide hdd in the /proc. how I can get it ? | 00:06 |
| spydmobile_ | greezmunkey: np, but I really need an alternative to mount my shares in.... | 00:06 |
| ogen | brimstones, Typos_King -- when you need to overburn or you are bur4ning something which is a program you are advised to burn more slowly. Perhpas you didnt know that. | 00:07 |
| Jordan_U | limen_: Sony's solution to this problem with Blue ray is that if they ever come up with a new DRM scheme (since blue ray has already been cracked too) they will have *executable code* on the new disks that will silently upgrade your player's firmware to support the new DRM. | 00:07 |
| greezmunkey | stoiss_: It exists in Chromium, but I believe the same option is available in Chrome. | 00:07 |
| Typos_King | Brimstones: many cds these days, usually cdrw ones, seem to require slower speeds for such, I have a couple which are labeled as 4x, so, they burn at 4x, I have other cdr's which can do 52x...so | 00:07 |
| stoiss_ | greezmunkey, perhapps you can answer me why i cant connect to IRC when i have port 8001 opened in my firewall. thats what it says these servers use. | 00:07 |
| stoiss_ | greezmunkey, ok thanks | 00:07 |

| barbarella | ogen:i looked at it and as far i can tell you, you can't set the speed..oeps you're right | 00:09 |
| greezmunkey | spydmobile_: the fix for rc.local not starting is at the bottom of the link you posted! :) | 00:09 |
| Brimstones | ogen: I always burn everything at full speed -speed=full etc and it has always worked except 15 years a go when me and some friends bought our first burner at 1x or 2x speed (Hilariously expensive kiss-burner) :) .. then we had to lower the speed for the Dr.Data records /hehe | 00:09 |

| linxeh | f31n: what tool ? | 00:09 |
| Typos_King | ogen: the speed label is ON the cd itself, in the transparent space in the center, between the middle-hole and the writable area | 00:09 |
| spydmobile_ | greezmunkey: I dont have a login, I see 10 comments but no solution? | 00:10 |
| greezmunkey | Make sure the symlinks to /etc/init.d/rc.local are in /etc/rc[2-5].d... you should have, for example, a symlink from /etc/rc5.d/S99rc.local to /etc/init.d/rc.local, which is the script that actually executes /etc/rc.local. | 00:10 |

| h00k | rqiao: I'm not sure what you're asking, you might want to check ##windows for windows support | 00:39 |
| IdleOne | rqiao: /join ##windows for help with Windows | 00:39 |
| rqiao | thanks | 00:39 |
| rqiao | well | 00:39 |
| rqiao | i try hit buttons at startup | 00:40 |
| rqiao | but it wont let me | 00:40 |

| rqiao | as in like my wireless keyboard doesn't connect | 00:40 |
| IdleOne | whosyourdaddy: not much better then the previous nick you just left with | 00:40 |
| respire | ubuntu was designed from the ground up to be usable for the normal user right | 00:40 |
| barbarella | rqiao:F8 could be a boot device option aswell | 00:40 |
| IdleOne | whosyourdaddy: but acceptable I guess | 00:41 |
| rmrfslash | How can I install the Sun JRE in Lucid? | 00:41 |
| whosyourdaddy | - - | 00:41 |
| Typos_King | rquiao: you do get a Grub menu with xp in it, and when chosen, xp gives you a black screen, right? as opposed to you're shown a menu different | 00:41 |
| rmrfslash | I only see openjdk and gcj | 00:41 |
| respire | so is it really OK I have to use pppd instead of networkmanager half the time to get a link up | 00:41 |
| fool__ | how can i make "print to file" the default printing option for firefox ? | 00:41 |
| rqiao | yes | 00:41 |
| rqiao | xp gives me ablack screen when i select it | 00:41 |
| arand | respire: Not from the ground up, but designed, yes. | 00:41 |
| rqiao | aside from a blanking _ in the top left | 00:41 |
| Typos_King | rmrfslash: sudo apt-get install sun-java6-bin; hehe, jre will ask you for the 'bin' package anyway | 00:41 |
| rqiao | blinking* | 00:41 |
| stoiss | respire, the networkmanager in ubuntu for most parts really is.. well.. bad.. | 00:41 |
| MindSpark | ok, I finally got java6 working. How do I set the JAVA_HOME variable on startup ? in the init.d dir ? | 00:42 |
| stoiss | ive always had to use wicd in order to get any wifi working | 00:42 |
| rmrfslash | E: Couldn't find package sun-java6-bin | 00:42 |
| rmrfslash | ???? | 00:42 |
| Typos_King | fool__ dunno, only spot I can think of offhand will be, check in about:config | 00:42 |
| rmrfslash | Again, this is Lucid. | 00:42 |
| respire | stoiss, i think i could make it work like magic, better than the ones you get with the windows mobile broadband programs | 00:42 |
| respire | but i am to selfish to do it for no reason | 00:43 |
| Typos_King | rmrfslash: sudo apt-get install sun-<tab> // apt-get can use autocomplete with tab :) | 00:43 |
| h00k | rmrfslash: please see #ubuntu+1 for Lucid support | 00:43 |
| stoiss | i suppose so.. but ive only had problems with it | 00:43 |
| barbarella | rqiao:be patient, aslong it is not blue | 00:43 |
| rqiao | so | 00:43 |
| rqiao | the blinking is normal? | 00:43 |
| rqiao | i waited at most 5 minutes | 00:43 |
| Typos_King | rquiao: the blinking means, is not booting up cuz I'd think it has no ntldr in the partition to boot with | 00:44 |
| barbarella | rqiao:when you restart your computer hit F8 an start safe mode | 00:44 |
| === linucks is now known as elric | ||
| respire | if someone can think of a selfish reason for me to unsuck network manager i will do it :) | 00:44 |
| Typos_King | rquiao: ntldr, being win32 boot loader, needed in its partition mbr | 00:44 |
| rqiao | it doesnt give me an option to hit f8 | 00:44 |
| h00k | rqiao: ##windows will be better suited to fix your windows partition, then feel free to ask us about how to restore your grub | 00:44 |

| rqiao | k | 00:45 |
| rqiao | thanks | 00:45 |
| barbarella | rqiao:yes you have | 00:45 |
| respire | i mean i even ended up having to use echo to write ATDT to the USB tty to get online | 00:45 |
| ogen | bingo Typos_King -I found it. A. You cannot drag in the files like you can with CD/DVD creator (that is a simple frontend for brasero that pops up when a blank disk is inserted)) B. So when I add via the ADD + button and THEN CHOSE BURN I get a dialog box that gives me burn speeds. --- Thanks for your help and barbarella 's help and Brimstones help. --- SUM: I cant do it with the simple interface. It gets confused when you drag files, must change a dropdown box FR | 00:45 |
| ogen | OM ISO -EVEN IF YOU STARTED OUT CHOOSING DATA. -- and so I am doing this test disk. And I found out. And I am sharing my findings. Tata for now. | 00:45 |
| Typos_King | rquiao: you don't happen to have a burner? | 00:45 |
| rqiao | i do | 00:45 |
| Typos_King | rquiao: you don't happen to have 'Hiren's bootable cd' handy? :) | 00:46 |
| ogen | New question: is there any way to get to the data on an Ubuntu WUBI installation except by booting up from that disk in wubi-ubuntu? | 00:46 |
| rqiao | :O nope D: | 00:46 |
| Theowning | Hmm, I really messed up my boot and dont really know where to go from here. Upgraded to grub2 and it was working fine until I uninstalled splashy and now it's pulling errors all the time saying "return: 24: Illegal number:". Could the lack of splashy be causing this? | 00:47 |
| rqiao | Oh, and another question..I try to install starcraft with wine | 00:48 |
| stoiss | ogen wubi is pretty much linux in a folder. its very compressed | 00:48 |
| rqiao | but whenever I choose a file to install within | 00:48 |
| rqiao | it tells me that there's an invalid path, and to choose again | 00:48 |
| Typos_King | rquiao: http://www.hirensbootcd.net/ <--- get it, burn it, it has an array of options, including 'boot with ntldr' if not present, like your case, also has a live-xp and utilities to do scandisk on the xp partition for any errors, which seems why you might get the blinking cursor only | 00:48 |
| rqiao | Ok, thanks. | 00:48 |
| barbarella | ogen:should be mountable in windows | 00:48 |
| Typos_King | rquiao: they have 10.4 out, I use 10.2 works quite well, so :) | 00:49 |
| greezmunkey | Typos_King: nice link ;) thx | 00:49 |
| rqiao | Ok | 00:49 |
| Macer | ah well. let me bust out the kvm and hook the linux box and the aspire1 up to it since linux can't use this scanner | 00:49 |
| Macer | that sucks :) | 00:49 |
| ogen | barbarella, wubi is in a folder not in a partition. You cant see the data from windows nor when I boot from another ubuntu disk. | 00:49 |
| Brimstones | ogen: cool | 00:49 |
| Macer | anybody have any suggestions for a cheap scanner that has a doc feeder and works in linux? | 00:50 |
| Macer | i remember having an hp scanner/printer that worked | 00:50 |
| Macer | i just need something light to scan bills so i can shred them | 00:50 |
| Typos_King | Macer: not sure on the cheap part, but as I said, I had a Samsung all-in-one, the cd had drivers for macOSX/win32/linux | 00:51 |
| barbarella | ogen:try poweriso | 00:51 |
| rqiao | so | 00:51 |
| rqiao | i juts burn the cde | 00:51 |
| rqiao | cd | 00:51 |
| rqiao | stick it in | 00:51 |
| rqiao | and restatr? | 00:51 |
| FloodBot1 | rqiao: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 00:51 |
| Macer | Typos_King: wow really? | 00:51 |
| Macer | that's kind of rare ... i think i've only ran into a few pieces of hardware that actually had linux drivers | 00:51 |
| ogen | stoiss yes, there doesnt seem to be any way. That should be in the docs. I will check on that. Makes it hard for windows to track how full the HD is I would think if it cannot "see" it all or not report it in Windows Explorer. | 00:51 |
| the_file | any1 know the name of bash html browser that supports images?. | 00:52 |
| Typos_King | rquiao: burn the .iso, just the .iso, the .iso will be the 200mbs file in the .zip with the file extension of .iso :), and boot with it, yes, try using the 'boot with ntldr' option maybe | 00:52 |
| rqiao | ok | 00:52 |
| rqiao | cool. | 00:52 |
| Macer | http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=3553273&Sku=H24-L2689A | 00:52 |

| ogen | barbarella. I have everything I wanted. ( plus the name of now 3 other things to try) | 00:52 |
| stoiss | greezmunkey, you dont happen to know which ports are used for freenode irc do you ? aparently 8001 isnt enough | 00:52 |
| barbarella | ogen:than you're happy | 00:53 |
| Typos_King | Macer: for that price it better cook breakfast too :| | 00:53 |
| Macer | Typos_King: hehe | 00:53 |
| greezmunkey | stoiss: are you creating a server, or conecting to one? | 00:53 |
| ogen | stoiss. that's in the future. I have this now. I went with this because I did not want to make a gparted error. Now I am only ubuntu till further notice. (Short on HD space though) -- thanks. | 00:53 |

| the_file | any1 know the name of bash html browser that supports images?. | 00:54 |
| stoiss | greezmunkey, connecting.. i cant connect to this server with firewall on.. even when allowing all ports.. but other servers which uses 6667 which is the standard works fine | 00:54 |
| Typos_King | the_file: wha? | 00:54 |
| Macer | Dell | 00:54 |
| stoiss | ogen ah ok.. well always have one partition for your OS and another for your files.. | 00:55 |
| Macer | ah.. yeah.. it doesn't work.. ah well | 00:55 |
| Typos_King | the_file: if it does images, doesn't that make it GUI? | 00:55 |
| Macer | let me see if this xerox i'm looking at on tigerdirect does | 00:55 |
| greezmunkey | stoiss: your firewall should allow you to make outbound connections. Apparantly it is ignoring established connections - or isn't letting you get out in the first place. | 00:55 |
| Typos_King | Macer: *cough* or craighlist *cough* | 00:55 |

| kaushal | stoiss: is the spelling correct ? | 00:57 |
| kaushal | I dont see it in google | 00:57 |

| Macer | looks like xsane doesn't support a documate 150 | 01:06 |
| Macer | too ba | 01:06 |
| Macer | too bad | 01:06 |
| psycho_oreos | you need to be root, try sudo | 01:06 |
| BiggFREE | Back | 01:06 |
| kaushal | Typos_King: Tray icon changes colour to show new messages have arrived | 01:07 |
| cloudnarok2938 | "you do not have the permissions necessary to save the file" | 01:07 |
| kaushal | Typos_King: http://campfirenow.com/ | 01:07 |
| psycho_oreos | cloudnarok2938, yes you must start the editor as root for that config file | 01:08 |
| cloudnarok2938 | how do i start the editor as root? | 01:08 |
| IdleOne | use sudo | 01:08 |
| IdleOne | !root | 01:08 |
| cloudnarok2938 | im typing sudo su | 01:08 |
| ubottu | Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 01:08 |
| psycho_oreos | cloudnarok2938, what editor you used? | 01:08 |
| cloudnarok2938 | gedit | 01:08 |
| psycho_oreos | cloudnarok2938, gksu gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf | 01:08 |
| cloudnarok2938 | i love you!!!!! | 01:09 |
| cloudnarok2938 | thank you | 01:09 |
| barbarella | cloudnarok2938:sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf | 01:09 |
| cloudnarok2938 | woooot | 01:09 |
| cloudnarok2938 | thank you everyone | 01:09 |
| psycho_oreos | sudo su won't help because that's not a GUI front-end, it'll probably run in background and terminate eventually | 01:09 |
| cloudnarok2938 | so gksu is another kind of "sudo" | 01:10 |
| psycho_oreos | no gksu is gnome frontend for sudo.. sudo is a terminal command | 01:10 |
| psycho_oreos | s/terminal/terminal\ console/ | 01:10 |
| cloudnarok2938 | thanks this clears it up | 01:11 |
| Typos_King | kaushal: I still don't get it :| | 01:12 |
| bastid_raZor | !gksudo | cloudnarok2938 ..this may help a bit more | 01:12 |
| ubottu | cloudnarok2938 ..this may help a bit more: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) | 01:12 |
| cloudnarok2938 | sweet | 01:13 |
| cloudnarok2938 | so i guess i'll use gksu from now on, and reserve sudo for terminal commands | 01:13 |

| cwraig | lol, tv that is normaly playing cofee animations was just sitting there with gnome and the desktop background set to the golden archers but the rest of the theme was the ubuntu colours (9.04) | 01:17 |

| greezmunkey | o11c: do tell. | 01:18 |
| o11c | does echo '\\' print one backslash or 2? | 01:19 |
| hiexpo | yes what is it | 01:19 |
| Typos_King | jeff__ move up/down the PCM slider, to see for any effect | 01:19 |
| arand | o11c: If it is really a bug, reprot it to launchpad | 01:19 |
| Typos_King | o11c: should be a backslash IIRC | 01:19 |
| Brimstones | Besides Spulphuric dioxide Clorides etc | 01:19 |
| o11c | in dash (default sh) it prints 1, in bash it prints 2 | 01:19 |
| Brimstones | Argon ? | 01:19 |
| Typos_King | ... | 01:20 |
| o11c | but I don't know what POSIX says | 01:20 |
| jeff__ | no effect but the icon states dummy out put 100% | 01:20 |
| greezmunkey | o11c: It should print one, the first is seen as an escape | 01:20 |
| o11c | even in single quotes? | 01:20 |
| greezmunkey | o11c: ah, I'd have to man that one... | 01:20 |
| === fernando is now known as Guest86579 | ||
| o11c | in bash, there is no escaping in single quotes, really annoying | 01:21 |
| Typos_King | o11c: should be a backslash using double-quotes, single-quotes on the other hand do not do any 'interpolating' and thus they literally handle the strings, and thus in single-quotes, you'd get 2 backslashes | 01:21 |
| o11c | of course, the man pages are just symlinks | 01:21 |

| greezmunkey | o11c: so from that there's a bug? Typos_King what do you think? | 01:23 |
| o11c | okay, the sh man page isn't a symlink to dash's, and it does say what bash does for ' | 01:23 |
| the_file | is there a puppy theme for ubuntu?. | 01:23 |
| o11c | literal meaning for ALL CHARACTERS except single quote itself | 01:23 |
| the_file | or at least something that has a menu button on the bottom left corner | 01:24 |
| Typos_King | greezmunkey: no bug, that's standard behaviour for single-quotes and double-quotes, not just in bash, same is in Perl and in php | 01:24 |

| un214 | that's bad | 02:57 |

| quietone | Dr_Willis: fdisk -l only shows the two internal drives. not the currently attached ipod or flash drive. what command for dmesg? | 02:59 |

| Dr_Willis | cousteau: and no i dont have any url's - i just saw it at some sites as i was googling about | 03:02 |
| un214 | doesn't that require a large swap drive? | 03:02 |

| quietone | Dr_Willis: Ok. I tried again with the flash drive. it doesn't show up. What are the deeper issues? | 03:02 |
| greezmunkey | cousteau: better than that, you can use aptoncd, and back up your /home. Install fresh ubuntu, restore /home, and put your packages back from aptoncd...viola! | 03:03 |
| cousteau | since probably some partitions must be unmounted, and some other things that can't be done from windows | 03:03 |
| Dr_Willis | quietone: if those 2 commands are not seeing it.. then it could be a bad flash drive.. or bad usb port. | 03:03 |
| cousteau | greezmunkey: well, that's a good solution... but if it's possible to just copy the ubuntu image to a partition I think that would be the way to go | 03:04 |

| lespea | i'm trying to get my mother to use *nix but she has to have office... openoffice is not a suitable replacement for her (tried that) | 03:22 |
| lespea | could use virtualbox or something but that's waaay too involved for her | 03:22 |

| nsadmin | does script blocker come as a ubuntu package | 03:24 |
| gaveen | choynes, This is a public channel. Don't seek for private support | 03:24 |
| gaveen | Trouche, you don't mount swap partitions. Anyway you can set up your spare as a swap | 03:24 |
| Alcor | Has ne1 ever seen a unix/linux box swap? Its like wading in syrup... | 03:24 |
| choynes | gaveen, then why cant I get an answer? | 03:24 |
| Capt_Blackwood | choynes, you need to be patient | 03:24 |
| Alcor | Swapping means u don't have enough ram... | 03:25 |
| gaveen | choynes, ask your question in public, and hopefully someone will offer to help | 03:25 |
| nsadmin | choynes: if you need immediate, specific, targeted help, perhaps you need a paid consultant | 03:25 |
| nsadmin | people here don't get paid; you'll have to wait for someone who is willing. | 03:25 |
| Capt_Blackwood | hang on, choynes, what's the problem with the iPod? | 03:25 |
| choynes | I have... just want to use my ipod on an ubuntu install. tried RB to no avail, and the forums are full of too many solutions that are confusing | 03:26 |
| xx22xx | anyone how to install script blocker...!!! | 03:26 |
| nsadmin | does script blocker come as a ubuntu package | 03:26 |
| greezmunkey | defn: did you gat an answer? | 03:26 |

| greezmunkey | defn: look here: http://www.linux.com/learn/tutorials/8225-clone-your-ubuntu-installation-onto-a-new-hard-disk | 03:26 |
| defn | greezmunkey: i want a bootable drive which is an exct copy | 03:26 |
| Capt_Blackwood | choynes, and what version of Ubuntu are you using | 03:26 |
| defn | awesome thanks | 03:26 |
| greezmunkey | defn: look here: http://www.linux.com/learn/tutorials/8225-clone-your-ubuntu-installation-onto-a-new-hard-disk | 03:26 |
| choynes | ipod plugged in, wont play music, get ipod nano 4th gen, and 9.10 nb remix | 03:27 |
| xx22xx | thanks man.....installed works fine.. | 03:27 |
| Alcor | rigel do a ps -aef and find the print job -- then do kill -9 pid to kill it | 03:27 |
| choynes | gstreamer is missg a plugin, and the bad set didnt work | 03:27 |
| xangua | lucid will have a new version of gnome that will support ipod an iphone i believe | 03:28 |
| xangua | choynes* | 03:28 |
| Capt_Blackwood | choynes, do you have "Restricted" extras installed? | 03:28 |
| schultza | Ok. How do I activate Gnome Shell? I have it installed from Ubuntu Tweak. | 03:28 |
| choynes | no... | 03:28 |
| Alcor | God bless the command line!!! | 03:29 |
| Capt_Blackwood | choynes, go to "System" under the "Administration" area you'll see "Synaptic Package Manager" | 03:29 |
| greezmunkey | rigel: in your browser: http://localhost:631 - takes you to CUPS - you can manage your spooler from there | 03:29 |
| gaveen | Trouche, is your partition currently mounted? If so first unmount it. | 03:29 |
| Capt_Blackwood | choynes, open that...and tell me when you have it up | 03:29 |
| Trouche | gaveen, how do I tell? I feel like such a noob. | 03:30 |
| defn | greezmunkey: i have a minor question on you rlink | 03:30 |
| thisguykills | !lspci | 03:30 |
| greezmunkey | defn: OK | 03:30 |
| greezmunkey | defn: sorry, caps | 03:30 |
| rigel | greezmunkey: it's a local job being spooled to a remote system, its not showing in cups | 03:30 |
| gaveen | Trouche, run the command mount and see if the spare partition comes up in the list | 03:31 |
| CarlFK1 | anyone know the firefox PPA? need 3.5 or so for Jaunty | 03:31 |
| defn | greezmunkey: what i dont want to do, is COMPLETELY recreate my current drive -- because on drive A the partition for ubuntu is too small and i want it to be larger on the drive B | 03:31 |
| defn | with ddrescue it looks like it will just be recreating the exact structure of drive A | 03:31 |
| defn | which is not what i want to do | 03:31 |
| greezmunkey | defn: I believe the third section deals with resizing partitions. | 03:31 |
| Trouche | gaveen, it doesn't appear to. | 03:31 |
| defn | greezmunkey: wonderful -- i will read on | 03:31 |
| defn | thanks again | 03:31 |
| lespea | I don't have a question; I just want to say that sshfs is god damn amazing | 03:32 |
| rigel | i also dont see the job in ps | 03:32 |
| rigel | but im not sure what exactly im looking for | 03:32 |
| xangua | CarlFK1: for jaunty try ubuntuzilla http://ubuntuzilla.wiki.sourceforge.net/ | 03:32 |
| === DaZ^ is now known as DaZ | ||
| greezmunkey | rigel: what did you do to generate the print job, what program? | 03:32 |
| gaveen | Trouche, good. So we can use it as swap now. First, do you know it's device name: Eg: sdb2? | 03:32 |
| rigel | i dont recall, probably evince | 03:33 |
| goddard | Is there a way to disable the desktop icons on ubuntu like in windows? | 03:33 |

| Capt_Blackwood | choynes, other than the restricted extras and making sure linux can properly detect the ipod, i'm not that good with ipods and linux. | 03:34 |
| Capt_Blackwood | choynes, other than the restricted extras and making sure linux can properly detect the ipod, i'm not that good with ipods and linux. | 03:34 |
| gaveen | Trouche, ok, next run: sudo mkswap /dev/sda3 | 03:34 |
| choynes | fetching restricted extras. Capt_Blackwood, are you military? | 03:34 |
| Capt_Blackwood | choynes, nope | 03:34 |
| Capt_Blackwood | why? | 03:34 |
| Trouche | gaveen, done | 03:35 |
| gaveen | Trouche, then, we need to make the swap partition entry persistent by adding it to /etc/fstab | 03:35 |
| apstanto | What do I do if the 9.10 installation freezes? It's stuck on a black screen with a frozen "busy mouse" symbol in the middle and the cd drive makes a sound once every several minutes? | 03:35 |
| choynes | use of the "Capt", plus I'm retired CG | 03:36 |
| gaveen | Trouche, edit the /etc/fstab with your editor of choice. Eg: sudo nano /etc/fstab | 03:36 |
| choynes | sorry off t, restarting RB | 03:36 |
| Capt_Blackwood | ah, choynes, it's a fictional character i developed when i was 16 | 03:36 |
| Trouche | gaveen, alright. What am I adding | 03:36 |
| goddard | Is there a way to disable the desktop icons on ubuntu like in windows? | 03:36 |

| Capt_Blackwood | goddard, desktop icons? | 03:36 |
| gaveen | Trouche, in a new line | 03:36 |
| Dr_Willis | goddard: you can turn on/off the desktop icons in gnome - yes | 03:37 |
| greezmunkey | rigel: yikes, I don't know how much help this will be, but it is good reading at least: http://lib.ru/LINUXGUIDE/linux_survive/lsg19.htm | 03:37 |
| gaveen | Trouche, it should be sdb3, my bad | 03:37 |
| Dr_Willis | goddard: i know ubuntu-tweak has a gui/tool to do it.. proberly other ways as well | 03:37 |
| xx22xx | is there better movie player than totem 2.28.2 in ubuntu 9.10 | 03:37 |
| Trouche | gaveen, why sdb3? | 03:37 |
| Dr_Willis | xx22xx: i alwyas use vlc or mplayer | 03:37 |
| gaveen | Trouche, oops, it's sda3. Sorry :) | 03:37 |
| xx22xx | ol | 03:37 |
| apstanto | Alcor, I'm doing an install of ubuntu 9.10 | 03:37 |
| choynes | Capt, thanks! worked like a charm. Got Straus playing... cya ;-) | 03:37 |
| gaveen | Trouche, Add the line, save the file and exit | 03:38 |
| rigel | lpq says no entries | 03:38 |
| aalares_ | hay ubunteros venezolano por ahi | 03:38 |
| rigel | but the little print icon in the toolbar says otherwise | 03:38 |
| cheqiang | hellp | 03:38 |
| cheqiang | hello | 03:38 |
| Trouche | gaveen: How do I save the file? It is read only. I am using gedit | 03:38 |
| aalares_ | Hola ubunteros por aqui en español | 03:38 |
| greezmunkey | rigel: did you send the job to a *nix system, windows? | 03:39 |
| Capt_Blackwood | choynes, any time, also: when ever you've got a fresh ubuntu setup, always drop in the restricted extras... | 03:39 |
| goddard | Dr_Willis thanks | 03:39 |
| Capt_Blackwood | enjoy. | 03:39 |
| Alcor | apstanto look down at your system and see if the dvd is sticking out | 03:39 |
| gaveen | Trouche, you need to open it with sudo then. Eg: sudo gedit /etc/fstab | 03:39 |
| xangua | goddard: maybe unmarking the 'show_desktop' entry in apps/nautilus/preferences thru 'gconf-editor' | 03:39 |
| Trouche | gaveen: k | 03:39 |
| apstanto | Alcor: it is not. | 03:39 |
| Trouche | gaveen: done | 03:39 |
| Alcor | apstanto i assume ur using cdrom to load? | 03:40 |
| apstanto | Alcor: yes | 03:40 |
| xangua | goddard: http://img144.imageshack.us/my.php?image=stiscreenshotv.png | 03:40 |
| gaveen | Trouche, now run: sudo swapon -a | 03:40 |
| goddard | xangua where? | 03:40 |
| xangua | goddard: launc: gconf-editor | 03:41 |
| Trouche | gaveen: I get this... swapon: /dev/sda3: swapon failed: Cannot allocate memory | 03:41 |
| apstanto | Alcor: I've done this install a couple times before, and never had a problem. | 03:41 |
| === francesco_ is now known as thisguykills | ||
| apstanto | Alcor: on other systems that is... | 03:41 |
| Trouche | gaveen: Quick question... I have 8GB of RAM, but the installer suggested a 4.5GB swap. Is that the problem? | 03:42 |
| xangua | Trouche: normally not more than 2gb of swap is needed | 03:42 |
| Alcor | apstanto i did the same thing. My dvd was interfering with the cdrom load. Is the light on the dvd coming on? | 03:42 |
| song | robot??????? | 03:42 |
| xx22xx | how to run vlc?? | 03:42 |
| Dr_Willis | Trouche: unless you want to use hibernate/suspend - then you might want swap = ram. | 03:42 |
| Jordan_U | Trouche: Only if you want to be able to hybernate, in which case you may sometimes need more swap | 03:43 |
| Dr_Willis | xx22xx: type 'vlc' in a terminal. or use its icon | 03:43 |
| apstanto | Alcor: not anymore. It was doing great for a while... | 03:43 |
| gaveen | Trouche, that swap size shouldn't be a problem. If you are not going to run memory heavy programs, your system might not use swap at all,... with 8GB of memory :) | 03:43 |
| Trouche | gaveen: I am used to Windows | 03:43 |
| Trouche | gaveen: ;) | 03:43 |
| Trouche | gaveen: So.. any idea what causes the error? | 03:43 |
| gaveen | Trouche, Checking,... I'm not too sure | 03:44 |
| Alcor | apstanto r u using the cdrom or the dvd to load? | 03:44 |
| xx22xx | is there no icon for vlc player.... | 03:45 |
| apstanto | Alcor: its a cd in a dvd drive | 03:45 |
| Jordan_U | Trouche: You can also create a swap file just for hybernating if you don't want a dedicated partition | 03:45 |
| greezmunkey | All: I understand the "rule" to be, swap matches RAM, unless you want to hibernate, then double RAM - is that about right? | 03:45 |
| Trouche | Jordan_U: I like the idea of the partition :) | 03:45 |
| Alcor | apstanto Oh - sry | 03:46 |
| xx22xx | vlc not suppose to be run as root..???sorry | 03:46 |
| gaveen | Trouche, can you do a pastie of: free -m | 03:46 |
| ShazbotMcNasty | how do I compress a whole bunch of .rar's making on video (xvid) to one, single avi? | 03:46 |
| gaveen | Trouche, may be here: http://pastie.org/ | 03:46 |

| ShazbotMcNasty | vlc/ mplayer xx22xx | 03:48 |
| Trouche | gaveen: http://pastie.org/933635 | 03:48 |
| xx22xx | tried showing error | 03:48 |
| gaveen | Trouche, that looks ok | 03:49 |
| Dr_Willis | xx22xx: vlc is commonly used by thousands of people.. what was the error? | 03:49 |
| Dr_Willis | xx22xx: and correct. theres NO need to run vlc as root | 03:50 |
| Trouche | gaveen: Should I restart? | 03:50 |
| gaveen | Trouche, If you can. Let's restart and see. | 03:50 |
| xx22xx | vlc is not supposed to be run as root. sorry | 03:51 |
| Dr_Willis | xx22xx: so? thats the error message? or what.. you do not do 'sudo vlc' and you shouldent be doing stuff as root unless you need to anyway | 03:51 |
| Dr_Willis | xx22xx: so clarify exactly what you are doing. | 03:51 |
| Trouche | gaveen: k.. I will be back. I hope.... :) | 03:52 |
| smoked1 | Does anyone know how to get a USB hard drive to mount at boot? I have tried adding an fstab entry but keep gettin the error:"special device UUID=5d2f2546-1c19-40d0-95e3-c90d33fc800a does not exist" | 03:52 |
| gaveen | Trouche, ok, let's see :) | 03:52 |
| Dr_Willis | smoked1: double check the UUID, or use the by LABEL option in fstab. is one way. | 03:53 |
| xx22xx | if you need use vlc-wrapper (make sure it is set-UID root and cannot be run by non-trusted users first... | 03:53 |
| smoked1 | Dr_Willis: I'll try that | 03:53 |
| Dr_Willis | xx22xx: what is the exact command you are using? Youve managed to do somthing really goofy it seems | 03:53 |
| Dr_Willis | xx22xx: and you are logged in as a normal user? not as root? perhaps its time to log out and back in . to get to a sane state. | 03:54 |
| xx22xx | typing : vlc and then these error | 03:54 |
| Dr_Willis | xx22xx: you are doing somthijgn weird then. what does the command 'whoami' output? | 03:55 |
| xx22xx | root | 03:55 |
| Dr_Willis | xx22xx: so we are back to.. WHY are you doning this as root.. You are the wrong user. | 03:56 |
| Dr_Willis | xx22xx: exit that terminal.. open a new one as your USER, and try the commands. (check whoami again to make sure you are a user, not root) | 03:56 |
| Trouche | gaveen: k... I am back | 03:56 |
| gaveen | Trouche, that's a good sign :) | 03:57 |
| Trouche | gaveen: yeah. | 03:57 |
| gaveen | Trouche, now when you run free -m do you see a non-zero value for swap? | 03:57 |
| dethray | Are there any guides on getting hdmi out to work with the nvidia drivers? Can't seem to find any cohesive how-to of sorts. :) | 03:58 |
| Trouche | gaveen: nope. 4204 | 03:58 |
| gaveen | Trouche, that's a non-zero value :) | 03:58 |
| Dr_Willis | dethray: ive seen peoppel in here about 4 times a week asking about hdmi+nvidia - never seen a definitive answer. | 03:58 |
| Dr_Willis | dethray: theres proberly some LARGE forum thereads on the topic. given the # of peopel i see in here a week with the problem | 03:58 |
| xx22xx | vlc media player 1.0.2 Goldeneye | 03:59 |
| Trouche | gaveen: I assume that is a really good sign! So.. can I start the effusive praise of you now? | 03:59 |
| dethray | I'll keep pluggin away, maybe cook something up if i get it workin | 03:59 |
| dethray | Thanx | 03:59 |
| gaveen | Trouche, looks like you have it now. Anyway run: swapon -s to make sure | 03:59 |
| xx22xx | running vlc with the default interface. use 'cvlc' to use vlc without interface. | 03:59 |
| lespea | one thing I seriously question is switching to strictly plymouth for a lts release | 04:00 |
| gaveen | Trouche, the last command is to check the status of swap | 04:00 |
| lespea | pretty stupid given all its problems | 04:00 |
| Dr_Willis | lespea: yes. it has had issues. | 04:00 |
| bazhang | lespea, #ubuntu-offtopic for chat please | 04:00 |
| Dr_Willis | lespea: but thats probery a topic for #ubuntu-ranting :) | 04:00 |
| lespea | lol got the message :p | 04:01 |
| Trouche | gaveen: http://pastie.org/933645 | 04:01 |
| smoked1 | I tried changing the fstab entry to "LABEL=Media /media/Media ext3 auto,defaults,force,users 0 0" | 04:01 |
| cheqiang | I am chinese ,hello everyone | 04:01 |
| smoked1 | Still no go | 04:01 |
| gaveen | Trouche, congrats. You have a working swap partition now :) | 04:01 |
| Dr_Willis | smoked1: im not sure what the users optionis supposed to do in that case. and ive never seen 'force' option either | 04:01 |
| bazhang | cheqiang, #ubuntu-cn for Chinese language support of Ubuntu, #ubuntu-offtopic for chat | 04:02 |
| Dr_Willis | smoked1: and /media/Media exists? and the label is Media? (proper case) | 04:02 |
| smoked1 | Yes it does | 04:02 |
| Trouche | gaveen: Thank you very much. That was extremely un-painful. I really appreciate your friendly help. | 04:02 |
| smoked1 | And the volume label is Media | 04:02 |
| gaveen | Trouche, :) | 04:02 |
| Dr_Willis | smoked1: try it with just the 'defaults' option and unmount it. and see if 'sudo mount -a' properly mounts it | 04:02 |
| smoked1 | will do | 04:03 |
| Dr_Willis | smoked1: ive had SOME usb hard drives that are 'slow to get ready' and the sytem boots so fast - the usb isent ready to be mounted by the time fstab is getting mounted. | 04:03 |
| Dr_Willis | smoked1: i added a rc.local command that mounted them about 20 sec after system booted up | 04:03 |
| xx22xx | installed vlc works fine thanks... | 04:03 |
| cheqiang | #ubuntu-cn how should i do? | 04:03 |
| bazhang | cheqiang, /join #ubuntu-cn | 04:04 |
| jimi_ | Why doesnt lsusb list the device path always? like /dev/foo/bar0? | 04:04 |
| Dr_Willis | jimi_: theres /dev/disks/by-* paths you can look at.. | 04:04 |
| Dr_Willis | ls -l /dev/disk/by-label/ | 04:05 |
| smoked1 | hmm still the same thing. If I unplug it and plug it back in it gets mounted fine but I just can't get it to mount on boot. Really odd. | 04:05 |
| xx22xx | how to make vlc media player default... | 04:05 |
| Dr_Willis | xx22xx: right click on a video.. properties.. set it as the default player for that extension | 04:05 |
| jimi_ | Dr_Willis, Trying to find the path to a gsm phone connect via usb | 04:05 |
| Dr_Willis | jimi_: when ya plug it in. wait a few moments and 'dmesg' should mentin it at the end also | 04:05 |
| cheqiang | just type in "/join #ubuntu-cn " ? | 04:06 |
| bazhang | cheqiang, yes | 04:06 |
| Dr_Willis | cheqiang: or in many clients you can click on the #ubuntu-cn text and join | 04:06 |
| bazhang | cheqiang, or click on the link/right click on it join channel, depending on the client | 04:06 |
| jimi_ | Dr_Willis, It only shows [ 6552.222596] scsi 8:0:0:0: Direct-Access RIM BlackBerry SD 0002 PQ: 0 ANSI: 0 CCS | 04:07 |
| smoked1 | I am going to try a different USB port | 04:07 |
| Dr_Willis | jimi_: wait a bit longer and it may show up.. or it may need tobe in usb-data mode some how | 04:07 |
| cheqiang | oh i see thankyou ,by the way ,i also like to chat with foreign friends ,about tech or anything else | 04:09 |
| xx22xx | thanks for ur time Dr. Wills. | 04:11 |

| Omen_20 | Hi. I have downloaded the .so file for Flash RC2 but I cant figure out where to place it. | 04:12 |
| Dr_Willis | Omen_20: its best to install flash using the package manager. Not by downloading files from adobe | 04:12 |
| lespea | Dr_Willis: doesn't help him if he wants 10.1 | 04:12 |
| Omen_20 | Yeah but theyre not up to date. It's taking Adobe forever to finish up 10.1 | 04:13 |
| Dr_Willis | lespea: hes on his own then. that can break flash in ways thats very hard to fix. | 04:13 |
| Alcor | tst | 04:16 |
| ForgeAus | is canonical going to add a Enlightenment and a GNU-step based distro officially? (ie Ubuntu flavours like kubuntu and xubuntu are?) | 04:17 |
| Dr_Willis | ForgeAus: not that ive ever heard mentioned. | 04:17 |
| cheqiang | thankyou | 04:17 |
| Dr_Willis | ForgeAus: 'lubuntu' is a work in progress tobe 'official' in the 10.10 release I hear. | 04:17 |
| ForgeAus | whtas lubuntu? that lxde thingy? | 04:18 |
| Dr_Willis | lubuntu = lxde = yes | 04:18 |
| ForgeAus | also they could easily adopt fluxbuntu | 04:18 |
| Dr_Willis | theres really not much TO fluxbuntu. | 04:18 |
| Dr_Willis | Install fluxbox there ya go. :) | 04:18 |
| ForgeAus | exactly | 04:18 |
| Dr_Willis | so the point of having a seperate disrto/disk for a simple window manager - is not much of a point | 04:19 |
| ForgeAus | hehe well they do have some mods from #ubuntu, don't need lots of gnome for fluxbuntu | 04:19 |
| ForgeAus | another lite distro like xubuntu | 04:19 |
| Dr_Willis | One of the main 'working area' in lubuntu - is getting lxde native apps of all the gnome-apps they are replying on. | 04:19 |
| ForgeAus | well whats the point of having xubuntu then? all it is is ubuntu-minimal with xfce | 04:19 |
| bazhang | ForgeAus, lets move this to #ubuntu-offtopic please | 04:20 |
| Dr_Willis | xubuntu has its own different support tools in many cases. | 04:20 |
| ForgeAus | uh afaik its not offtopic | 04:20 |
| freezway | hey how can i get the cpu temperatures for all 4 cores on my cpu to show up in conky. running "sensors" from the command line shows me the temps. | 04:20 |
| Dr_Willis | Yep. :) | 04:20 |
| Dr_Willis | freezway: cheating way.. you can get conky to show the output of 'sensors' in a widgit. :) | 04:20 |
| bazhang | ForgeAus, sure it is. this is Ubuntu support only, meta-discussions in #ubuntu-offtopic | 04:20 |
| mhall119 | ForgeAus: go ask in #xubuntu | 04:21 |
| ForgeAus | lol | 04:21 |
| mhall119 | or ##windows | 04:21 |
| ForgeAus | rofl | 04:21 |
| freezway | Dr_Willis, any elegant way... brb | 04:21 |
| nameless | hi to all guys | 04:21 |
| Dr_Willis | freezway: i use the 'show output of a command' featur all the time to make conky things do what i want. | 04:21 |
| Dr_Willis | freezway: other then that. check the conky docs. there may be some special temperature settings for it. | 04:22 |

| bazhang | nameless, need more details | 04:24 |
| coz_ | nameless, which graphics card? | 04:24 |
| Dr_Willis | smoked1: try a simple /dev/sdXXX /media/Test ext3 defaults 0 0 in fstab perhaps. | 04:24 |
| markl_ | nameless: did you use the display tool? | 04:24 |
| Dr_Willis | smoked1: 'sudo mount -a' does mount the device? | 04:24 |
| nameless | sis graphic card | 04:24 |
| coz_ | nameless, sis oooo | 04:24 |
| coz_ | nameless, well there are drivers for that but you realize that no 3d driver is available for SIS cards? | 04:25 |
| nameless | yes i are do it only have 800x600 or lower | 04:25 |
| smoked1 | Dr_Willis: I keep getting mount: special device LABEL=Media does not exist | 04:25 |
| coz_ | nameless, there are deb packag | 04:25 |
| markl_ | smoked1: what kind of filesystem is it? | 04:25 |
| nameless | but can i set up a high resolution | 04:25 |
| markl_ | smoked1: it can be a little tricky with linux scsi device naming | 04:25 |
| nameless | what are deb packag | 04:25 |
| smoked1 | Dr_Willis: it is ext3 | 04:25 |
| coz_ | nameless, sorry there are deb packages for sis drivers but I have no idea if they work | 04:25 |
| coz_ | nameless, deb packages are ones that are going to be easily installed onto ubuntu or debian | 04:26 |
| nameless | how will i install it | 04:26 |
| markl_ | smoked1: use e2label to find the label | 04:26 |
| nameless | how can i get it | 04:26 |
| Dr_Willis | smoked1: double check guide here also --> http://71.18.80.191/node/9 | 04:26 |
| coz_ | nameless, well there are two packages withing the zip file hold on...but PLEASE understand ,,, I have not tested these and cannot guarantee anything | 04:26 |
| BiZooo | :o 5 days!!! | 04:26 |
| coz_ | nameless, http://dl.dropbox.com/u/132551/SIS%20driver/sisubuntudrivers.zip | 04:26 |
| nameless | ok its i will try | 04:27 |
| coz_ | nameless, right click that pacakge when it downloads and click "Extract here" | 04:27 |
| markl_ | smoked1: sudo e2label /dev/sda3 or whatever the device is | 04:27 |
| coz_ | nameless, install both packages in there and restart the system | 04:27 |
| markl_ | you may have to set it to something if it's blank | 04:27 |
| coz_ | nameless, but I cannot say for sure the system will boot again | 04:27 |
| markl_ | smoked1: i'll bet it is not "Media" right now | 04:27 |
| coz_ | nameless, I have only tested these once and that was about 4 months ago | 04:28 |
| smoked1 | mark1_: There is no entry in /dev for it | 04:28 |
| helpHeather | hello, I am trying to install skype and when i try to add the repo it says its 404 anyone know why? | 04:28 |
| yondering | hm, I have a .deb package that requires libboost-filesystem1.34.1.. I've installed 1.40.0.. I can use dpkg -i --force to try to ignore the deps? | 04:28 |
| freezway | helpHeather, website down? | 04:29 |
| Dr_Willis | smoked1: if a device is getting mounted - it has to have a /dev/XXXX entry. | 04:29 |
| markl_ | smoked1: is it plugged in? | 04:29 |
| markl_ | smoked1: try this: cat /proc/partitions | 04:29 |
| markl_ | and it should list everything the kernel knows about | 04:29 |
| markl_ | usually you can figure out which one it is by the size | 04:30 |
| greezmunkey | markl_: that's handy :) | 04:30 |
| helpHeather | freezway: http://download.skype.com/linux/repos/debian/ shows its up | 04:30 |
| freezway | helpHeather, ng way.. you can get conky to show the output of 'sensors' in a widgi | 04:31 |
| freezway | helpHeather, oops | 04:32 |
| freezway | helpHeather, 1 sec | 04:32 |
| markl_ | greezmunkey: sure comes in handy! | 04:32 |
| smoked1 | Maybeit's being seen as sda5 | 04:32 |
| freezway | http://www.skype.com/intl/en/download/skype/linux/choose/ | 04:32 |
| smoked1 | I'm going to read that guide and try a few things | 04:32 |
| helpHeather | freezway: the issue with that is its not a repo, i can install it that way, but any update will have to be done manually(and i am doing this for heather not me) | 04:33 |
| Dr_Willis | conky line to show the output of a command in the conky window ---> ${execi 300 cal | tail --lines=+2 | head --lines=-1} | 04:33 |
| helpHeather | if there is no repo then I will deal with it but the best part about package management is the repos :) | 04:33 |

| nameless_ | hi guys im buck and i still hove a problem with my sis graphic card driver | 04:35 |
| WXZ | what's the envelope icon on the top panel for, and how come I can't move it or find it in "add to panel"? | 04:35 |
| nameless_ | can any one help me | 04:36 |
| Dr_Willis | WXZ: you mean in 10.04/Lucid? | 04:36 |
| nameless_ | hi guys im buck and i still hove a problem with my sis graphic card driver | 04:36 |
| freezway | helpHeather, idk then | 04:36 |
| WXZ | I'm using ubuntu 9.10, don't even know what Lucid is | 04:36 |
| nameless_ | hi guys im buck and i still hove a problem with my sis graphic card driver | 04:36 |
| Dr_Willis | WXZ: part of the IM/notficiations/mail notifications tools - would be my guess. left and right click on it to see its menus/options. | 04:37 |
| WXZ | 3 options | 04:37 |
| yondering | nameless_, it's a tad rude to repeat a question so quickly in irc channels.. and your question is rather unclear. What is it doing or not doing? | 04:37 |
| WXZ | "empathy", "evolution mail", "pidgin internet messenger" | 04:37 |
| sisko | in 9.10 i can't get nvidia-settings to save X config it keeps saying failed to parse? | 04:37 |
| WXZ | I removed the notification area, so it's not part of it | 04:37 |
| WXZ | I'm afraid if I remove it, I won't be able to get it back | 04:38 |
| Dr_Willis | sisko: save the config to a diffrfent file, then copy the file to xorg.conf is one way to get around that. I forget some of the other ways ive seen | 04:38 |
| Dr_Willis | !resetpanels | WXZ | 04:38 |
| ubottu | WXZ: To reset the gnome panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » | 04:38 |
| Dr_Willis | WXZ: you can alays get things back | 04:38 |
| WXZ | ok ok, I'll stop being a wimp | 04:38 |

| melrokz | yup, I'm asking 4 a different purpose, to install on a PC without net connection... | 04:50 |
| freezway | brb | 04:50 |
| bazhang | melrokz, you might consider remastering an ubuntu distro, in that case, using aptond could be an option as well | 04:50 |
| bazhang | whoops aptoncd | 04:51 |
| melrokz | k, good. | 04:51 |
| bazhang | !aptoncd | 04:51 |
| ubottu | APTonCD is a tool with a graphical interface which allows you to create one or more CDs or DVDs with all of the packages you've downloaded via apt-get or aptitude, creating a removable repository that you can use on other computers - See also !offline | 04:51 |

| melrokz | convert mp4 to ogv | 04:59 |
| ^paradox^ | yes waiting for 10.04 | 04:59 |
| smoked1 | If I have the usb drive plugged in durrring boot it does nothing. If I unplug and then plug it in it gets mounted. I can then use umount to unmount it and "mount -a" to remount it. | 05:00 |
| stevecam | wtf | 05:00 |
| stevecam | i search ubuntu in google and i get this http://algatux.files.wordpress.com/2007/07/ubuntu-logo.jpg | 05:00 |
| melrokz | :) I think your local google site has gone crazy... | 05:01 |
| ^paradox^ | xangua: everything was fine til today with flv and wmv | 05:01 |
| stevecam | if i install the RC of 10.04, will there be any problems updating to the official release? | 05:01 |
| SwedeMike | !final | stevecam | 05:02 |
| ubottu | stevecam: If you installed a Alpha/Beta/RC version of Ubuntu 10.04 (Lucid Lynx) and have been keeping it up to date, then you are already running the latest version of Lucid. To make sure, type « sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade » in a console. | 05:02 |
| smoked1 | Maybe I should just remove this drive from the usb elclosure and just use ATA | 05:02 |
| stevecam | SwedeMike, i dont plan on reinstalling for a while, would you advise me to install the RC now or wait 4 days? | 05:03 |
| melrokz | How do I convert mp4 to ogv? | 05:03 |
| melrokz | using ffmpeg? | 05:04 |
| nsadmin | ffmpeg has no docs? | 05:04 |
| freezway | try man ffmpeg | 05:04 |
| ^paradox^ | xangua: im not sure how this happened, but i like having an alternative to mplayer. there a way to fix this? | 05:04 |
| Dr_Willis | ffmpeg has a whole Homepage full of docs.. and 100's of web sites with details on its ussage | 05:05 |
| bazhang | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=979682 melrokz | 05:05 |
| SwedeMike | stevecam: if you get it installed now ok, then there should be no problems going forward to keep it updated. | 05:05 |
| SwedeMike | stevecam: so little harm in trying | 05:05 |
| xangua | ^paradox^ maybe adding the vlc PPA if you don't want to wait | 05:05 |

| xangua | ^paradox^ but don't know if it's aviable for hardy | 05:05 |
| linux_is_my_hero | pentium 3's were never availible as 64-bit. | 05:06 |
| stevecam | linux_is_my_hero, netflix is a DVD | 05:06 |

| stevecam | rental company | 05:06 |
| linux_is_my_hero | stevecam, they have unlimited instant streaming via their website | 05:06 |
| Dr_Willis | nsadmin: man pages are normally not ment to be a 'tutorial' they are for referance. | 05:06 |
| apstanto | so I should use the 32bit? | 05:06 |
| stevecam | oh | 05:06 |
| melrokz | k, i'll try | 05:06 |
| stevecam | i havn't noticed that | 05:06 |

| linux_is_my_hero | stevecam: blockbuster is not going to like it :-D | 05:07 |

| Dr_Willis | chitti: your use of the term 'explore' is not very exacting.. | 05:13 |
| chitti | i know that nautilus foldername but not like that | 05:13 |
| melrokz | is it: ./configure --enable-libtheora --enable-libvorbis ? | 05:13 |
| Dr_Willis | melrokz: no idea. Id have to suggest check the various gides for rebuilding ffmpeg | 05:14 |

| carlosqueso | zzypot: are you going to insall alongside a windows install or as the only OS on your computer? | 05:22 |
| zzypot | dualboot | 05:23 |
| carlosqueso | check out http://seogadget.co.uk/the-ubuntu-installation-guide/ | 05:23 |
| hoonteke | electrickery: right idea, but it ain't quite so simple yet. Instead, go to System->Administration->Synaptic. | 05:23 |
| apstanto | I thought RAID 2 was where two hard drives are mirrored with the same data on both... | 05:23 |
| zzypot | i had windows vista on here then upgraded to windows 7 | 05:23 |
| hoonteke | electrickery: when it opens, search for 'flashplugin' in the search bar | 05:23 |
| hoonteke | electrickery: then select flashplugin-nonfree | 05:24 |
| hoonteke | electrickery: mark it for installation, then click apply. It should go download, and install it automagically. | 05:24 |
| tocino | hey | 05:24 |
| hoonteke | electrickery: then restart firefox and you should be good to go | 05:24 |

| carlosqueso | zzypot...there are some pretty simple options....I'd go ahead and reduce the partition size through windows though if you want to be absolutely sure that you don't screw up your windows partition....I'm pretty sure that the linux partition tools work well now, but it's better not to chance it | 05:24 |
| tocino | lets play tremulous common | 05:25 |
| zzypot | i dont have no windows vista cd so how would i go about doing this | 05:25 |
| apstanto | Oh, sorry...that's what I meant. RAID 1. | 05:25 |
| carlosqueso | zzypot...I've got VISTA on my dual-boot machine (and haven't used it for years) so I"m not too well-versed | 05:25 |
| tocino | who wants to play | 05:25 |
| bazhang | !ot > tocino | 05:26 |
| ubottu | tocino, please see my private message | 05:26 |
| tocino | ok how | 05:26 |
| electrickery | hoonteke: I only installed flashplugin installer. Should I uninstall that before installing nonfree? | 05:26 |
| _pg_ | how do I know if transmission going through Tor is working or not? | 05:26 |
| brando753 | anyone know the uri to enter into cups for a infared printer? | 05:26 |
| tocino | ubottu how do i see et | 05:26 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 05:26 |
| isolat3dsh33p | lol | 05:27 |
| hoonteke | electrickery: I ... don't konw. yes. The worst that'll happen is that you have to reinstall it, so give it a try. uninstall flashplugin installer, and install flashplugin-nonfree | 05:27 |
| bazhang | tocino, /join #ubuntu-offtopic for chat please | 05:27 |
| binil | i love sabayon | 05:27 |
| zzypot | so how do i fix the partition in windows | 05:27 |
| electrickery | hoonteke: Thanks. I'll give it a go. | 05:27 |
| binil | SABAYON has cool graphics and hands | 05:28 |
| chitti | fix means what? | 05:28 |
| binil | *GAMES | 05:28 |
| apstanto | Can I set up two external hard drives with RAID1 without having to repartition them, or delete the files one of them? | 05:28 |
| Dr_Willis | !raid | 05:28 |
| ubottu | Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SoftwareRAID and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO - For software RAID, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FakeRaidHowto | 05:28 |
| carlosqueso | zzypot: first defrag your HD...then you may be able to click on "Computer" and click "Manage", you should then be able to shrink your windows partition....if you are just testing an ubuntu install, 10 GB will be plenty | 05:29 |
| carlosqueso | zzypot: http://seogadget.co.uk/how-to-resize-a-windows-vista-partition/ has some vista instructions that may work in windows 7 too | 05:30 |
| SwedeMike | apstanto: yes, what you do is you create raid1 with one drive missing on one of the drives, then you copy all the data to it, then you add the second drive to the raid1. | 05:31 |
| tocino | lets play tremulous | 05:31 |
| tocino | plzzzzz | 05:31 |
| bazhang | tocino, not here | 05:31 |
| carlosqueso | zzypot...once you get the partitions set up...the installer should work fine | 05:31 |
| tocino | ok | 05:31 |
| bazhang | tocino, this is not the chat channel; #ubuntu-offtopic for that | 05:31 |
| tocino | ok sorry | 05:32 |
| tocino | sorry thanks man | 05:32 |
| nik1 | Hi guys.. I got a problem with my windows share.. can anyone help me out? | 05:32 |
| apstanto | SwedeMike: ok. That makes sense. I'm gonna research it a little more, but I think I understand! | 05:32 |
| pakete | is there network-manager-pptp-gnome package for 9.10? | 05:32 |
| nik1 | Hi guys.. I got a problem with my windows share.. can anyone help me out? | 05:34 |
| hoonteke | electrickery: that do the trick? | 05:35 |
| Dr_Willis | nik1: give more details and someone might know the answer. | 05:35 |
| electrickery | hoonteke: No, sadly. It did bring in the flashplugin installer again, all looks good, but the site I am trying to vies dousnt work http://www.abc.net.au/iview/ | 05:37 |
| nik1 | @Dr_Willis: well a friend of mine is sharing a folder with me and I can see it in my nautilus at smb://<his_machine_name>/ i can see the folders.. but when I try to open them it throws an error "filed to mount windows share" | 05:37 |
| nik1 | failed* | 05:37 |
| tazz | why cant i cd into a dir with perms "drw-r--r--" why does it have to be "drwxr-xr-x" ? | 05:38 |
| hoonteke | electrickery: hmm. it works for me, so there's something we're missing ... what kernel are you running? If you can open up a terminal and type 'uname -a' ... | 05:38 |
| Dr_Willis | nik1: windoes may be blocking somthing. OR you can try entering the full path to the share. smb://machinename/sharename | 05:39 |
| tazz | Linux hostname 2.6.31-20-generic #58-Ubuntu SMP Fri Mar 12 05:23:09 UTC 2010 i686 GNU/Linux | 05:39 |
| tazz | hoonteke, ^ | 05:39 |
| tazz | oops | 05:39 |
| switch10_ | tazz: that shouldn't matter with a dir... | 05:39 |
| switch10_ | tazz: it works only if you add the u+x? | 05:40 |
| hoonteke | tazz: err ... are you electrickery? | 05:40 |
| tazz | switch10_, it does matter for me, that is what baffles me. | 05:40 |
| tazz | hoonteke, nope. Thats why i said "oops" my bad hoonteke | 05:40 |
| nik1 | Dr_Willis: Ohh!yes its a file on Win* NTFS drive.. well I think thats the cause I'll try to share a folder in /home.. and see if it works | 05:40 |
| electrickery | hoonteke: 2.6.28-18-generic ??? | 05:41 |
| hoonteke | electrickery: what's the full output of the uname -a. not just the version number, please. | 05:41 |
| electrickery | 2.6.28-18-generic #60-Ubuntu SMP Fri Mar 12 04:40:52 UTC 2010 i686 GNU/Linux | 05:42 |
| nik1 | Dr_Willis: Yes thats IS the issue.. OK what exactly will solve the problem? cause there are many folders on NTFS drives which I would want to share and I can't paste everythin in /hom n share | 05:42 |
| mossby | Any Imagemagick veterans out there tonight? | 05:42 |
| hoonteke | mossby: ask your question | 05:42 |
| mossby | Why isn't this looping : convert A*.bmp B*.bmp -compose Overlay -composite socialblend_%0d.png | 05:43 |
| shashi | hi | 05:43 |
| hoonteke | or, more generally in *any* IRC channel, the suggestion is usually "Don't ask to ask. Just ask." | 05:43 |
| Dr_Willis | nik1: youy have to munt the ntfs filesystems with the proper options. OR you may want to NOT use the 'user created share' feature. but instead make the shares by ediing the /etc/samba/smb.conf file and share /media/ perhaps. | 05:43 |
| shashi | I have an issue with TUN module can somebody help? | 05:43 |
| === znxtch is now known as Guest75058 | ||
| shashi | (sorry if I am interrupting> | 05:43 |
| nsadmin | shashi: when you share the specifics, people who hear them will know if they can | 05:44 |
| shashi | sure... | 05:44 |
| shashi | I am trying to connect to VPN | 05:44 |
| shashi | and it says modprobe tun failed | 05:44 |
| hoonteke | mossby: define looping. what do you want to happen? | 05:44 |
| shashi | but tun is built into lucid (BTW I just installed lucid) | 05:44 |
| shashi | I am trying to install the VPN client | 05:45 |
| nsadmin | a good thing to find out is why the modprobe failed (btw did you reboot after upgrading) | 05:45 |
| nik1 | OK I just mount it with the default click n mount of ubuntu.. You think adding them to fstab with some specific permissions will solve the problem? If yes then what permissions exactly? and for the smb.conf, I'll try that out.. | 05:45 |
| nik1 | Dr_Willis:OK I just mount it with the default click n mount of ubuntu.. You think adding them to fstab with some specific permissions will solve the problem? If yes then what permissions exactly? and for the smb.conf, I'll try that out.. | 05:45 |
| Dr_Willis | if you want a perment share. You may need to use the fstab or command line tomount them | 05:46 |
| mossby | hoonteke: I have fifty A*.bmp files (A0001.bmp, A0002.bmp) and fifty B*.bmp -- I want to turn those into fifty socialblend_0#.pngs | 05:46 |
| Dr_Willis | nik1: perhaps run the 'ntfs-config' tool to set the things tobe writeable/readable . | 05:46 |
| electrickery | hoonteke: 2.6.28-18-generic #60-Ubuntu SMP Fri Mar 12 04:40:52 UTC 2010 i686 GNU/Linux | 05:46 |
| hoonteke | mossby: but I'm confused by this looping construct | 05:46 |
| hoonteke | electrickery: good, hmm, so that's *not* a 64-bit machine? | 05:47 |
| nik1 | Dr_Willis:ntfs-config has to be installed from synaptic? | 05:47 |
| mossby | hoonteke: I'm not 100% sure it's there... I assumed the wildcards would "loop" it by default | 05:47 |
| Dr_Willis | nik1: or via apt-get | 05:47 |
| nsadmin | mossby: first convert them (so they'll have .png endings) then rename them | 05:47 |
| hoonteke | mossby: does 'convert A0001.bmp B0001.bmp -compose Overlay -composit socialblend_%0d.png' work as expected? | 05:47 |
| hoonteke | mossby: what's the output from what you're doing now, a single file? | 05:48 |
| electrickery | hoonteke: Don't reckon.. Acer Aspire 3000 AMD Sempron 2800 | 05:48 |
| mossby | hoonteke: Yes, wonderfully, it basically blends the two images together into a third, I want to blend 50 pairs together to create 50 blends.... output is a single file, which is blended properly, but the %d never increments past zero | 05:49 |
| nik1 | Dr_Willis: Ok thanks a lot :) | 05:49 |
| TyanColte | i cant get grub2 to install right | 05:50 |
| nsadmin | look right, install left! | 05:51 |
| shashi | I amgetting this on lucid RC, "Modprobe for Tun driver failed", donno how to fix | 05:51 |
| hoonteke | mossby: I don't know how to make imagemagick loop, but I can do it with the shell: | 05:51 |
| hoonteke | mossby: for i in {01..50}; do echo convert A00$i.bmp B00$1.bmp -compose Overlay -composite socialblend_$i.png; done | 05:51 |
| hoonteke | mossby: if that output looks right, then remove the echo, and away you'll go. | 05:51 |
| hoonteke | electrickery: I don't know that hardware, but I'll take your word for it | 05:51 |
| nsadmin | what shell has that syntax? | 05:51 |
| hoonteke | nsadmin: bash | 05:51 |
| TyanColte | every time i try i follow the wiki it seems to do right but when i do grub-install -v it says like 1.97 beta | 05:51 |
| mossby | hoonteke: Thanks, ill give it a try | 05:52 |
| Dr_Willis | TyanColte: 1.97 is grub2 | 05:52 |
| mossby | hoonteke: :D ive got good feeling about this tho! | 05:52 |
| TyanColte | what happened to the graphic interface i've seen in pictures | 05:52 |
| hoonteke | mossby: bug: replace $1 with $i. I always do that by accident. | 05:52 |
| === yukiseaside is now known as Guest28512 | ||
| Jordan_U | TyanColte: It's not used by default. | 05:52 |
| Dr_Willis | TyanColte: its not been compiled in to the grub2 in ubuntu i imagine | 05:52 |
| TyanColte | http://principiantsubuntu.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/grub-2.jpg?w=400&h=325 | 05:53 |
| TyanColte | i want it to look like this | 05:53 |
| Dr_Willis | TyanColte: you will have some work to do then. | 05:53 |
| nsadmin | this graphic interface is to what, setting up grub? or booting | 05:53 |
| nsadmin | ? | 05:53 |
| hoonteke | electrickery: generally, thanks to adobe not support 64 bit until very recently, the 32bit flash has been way stronger than 64 bit flash, so I'm surprised it isn't working. my only real advice is to keep googling with the search terms relevant to your situation: jaunty flash. | 05:53 |
| TyanColte | click the link | 05:53 |
| TyanColte | grub2 is supposed to look like that | 05:53 |
| Dr_Willis | TyanColte: its not supposed to.. it CAN look like that | 05:53 |
| hoonteke | electrickery: sorry, I run a 64bit machine, and dont' have handy a 32bit machine to test with. | 05:53 |
| Dr_Willis | TyanColte: eventually it may look like that by default | 05:54 |
| === Guest75058 is now known as znxtch | ||
| TyanColte | that's why i moved to a dedicated partition because i was put under the impression that that's what my bootloader would look like, i got gipped | 05:54 |
| electrickery | hoonteke: Thanks.. I'll keep looking. | 05:54 |
| Dr_Willis | TyanColte: demand a refund. | 05:54 |
| TyanColte | very funny | 05:54 |
| TyanColte | it took alot of work getting it to work right the way i have my system setup | 05:55 |
| TyanColte | i was on a wubi installation, grub2 graphic interface was the only reason i got rid of wubi and went over to a dedicated partition installation i was under the impression that that's what it would look like | 05:55 |
| TyanColte | does anybody have theirs look like that? | 05:56 |
| nsadmin | the better question is, how do you do it | 05:56 |
| Jordan_U | TyanColte: I have mine like this: http://robertmh.wordpress.com/2010/01/11/grub-gets-new-face/ | 05:56 |
| TyanColte | http://principiantsubuntu.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/grub-2.jpg | 05:56 |
| Dr_Willis | a lot of work for a grub menu that you see for just a few seconds. :) | 05:56 |
| mossby | hoonteke: Haha! You just made my night! Works perfectly! now to use mencoder to string it into an avi! thanks so much | 05:57 |
| nsadmin | people who don't, can possibly still answer if they're familiar enough with grub2 | 05:57 |
| hoonteke | mossby: no worries. the shell is an awesome to learn right | 05:57 |
| TyanColte | but the black and white text of regular grub looks like shit, i'd rather have bootcamp on mac if i didn't despise apple for everything but their iphones | 05:58 |
| dek_ugenk | hi all | 05:58 |
| TyanColte | - the s word | 05:58 |
| TyanColte | sorry for the cursing | 05:58 |
| dek_ugenk | need help : my integrated mic wont work on my acer 2930z | 05:58 |
| mossby | hoonteke: yah, im a bit embarrassed how easy it was... I know the shell is powerful, but haven't really had to WORK work from the terminal before, thanks again | 05:58 |
| hoonteke | *awesome "tool" | 05:58 |
| dek_ugenk | i use karmic | 05:58 |
| hoonteke | mossby: gotcha. | 05:58 |
| hoonteke | mossby: heh, you should see some of the commandlines I've created before. The power of pipes is frickin' awesome ... | 05:59 |
| dek_ugenk | need help : my integrated mic wont work on my acer 2930z, i use karmic | 05:59 |
| nsadmin | mossby: obviously it would be worth your time to learn a shell or a non-shell scripting language (shell code is somewhat hard to read and hard to understand in many cases) | 06:00 |
| TyanColte | so basically all my efforts were in vain? | 06:00 |
| nsadmin | starting out, all your efforts would be in artery | 06:00 |
| hoonteke | nsadmin: I agree that it can be hard to read, but I'd claim that, just like perl, unreadable shell code, is largely a function of the coder, not the language. | 06:00 |
| shoaib_silver | hi | 06:01 |
| nsadmin | there are constructs that are just weird looking :) | 06:01 |
| dek_ugenk | need help : my integrated mic wont work on my acer 2930z, i use karmic | 06:01 |
| hoonteke | nsadmin: that said, here's an ugly one-liner I just created recently | 06:01 |
| hoonteke | mossby: git log | \grep ^commit | awk {'print $2'} | dev/html_diff_generator.py | gzip | | 06:01 |
| hoonteke | ssh -S "$ControlSocket" "$WebServer" "gunzip > $RemoteDir/commits_new.html; mv $RemoteDir/commits{_new,}.html" | 06:01 |
| hoonteke | :-) | 06:01 |
| TyanColte | anybody know a good dock for ubuntu? | 06:02 |
| shoaib_silver | sorry | 06:02 |
| xangua | TyanColte: docky, docky2, avant windows navigator, cairo dock | 06:02 |
| hoonteke | TyanColte: dock? like docking station? isn't that a hardware issue? not a software? | 06:02 |
| TyanColte | i don't like cairo dock | 06:02 |
| nsadmin | perl is kinda notorious since it's not a static grammar and its syntax is ambiguous in some cases, which would get resolved by the semantics | 06:02 |
| shoaib_silver | hi | 06:02 |
| TyanColte | hoonteke: not hardware dock, a software app dock | 06:02 |
| TyanColte | like rocketdock for windows | 06:03 |
| dek_ugenk | need help : my integrated mic wont work on my acer 2930z, i use karmic | 06:03 |
| toyo|desk | do I have to downgrade to grub-legacy from grub2 in order to be able to dual boot ubuntu and XP? | 06:03 |
| hoonteke | TyanColte: heh, I haven't used windows in 4 years. I dont' know what rocketdock is ... :-) | 06:03 |
| Jordan_U | toyo|desk: No, why would you think that? | 06:03 |
| mossby | nsadmin: hoonteke: Yeah, I'm terrible. I understand pseudo code more or less, and have messed around with plenty of backend web stuff (ruby, php, jquery)... so really, I should have learned some console skills by now | 06:03 |
| TyanColte | you're problem not mine, windows 7 is the bomb | 06:03 |
| toyo|desk | Jordan_U, because windows will not boot after upgrading to grub2 | 06:04 |
| hoonteke | TyanColte: hah. problem? I think not ... | 06:04 |
| hoonteke | :-) | 06:04 |
| nsadmin | grub legacy has this weird bug involving wheterh the disk is partitioned or not | 06:04 |
| TyanColte | although ubuntu 9.10 is pretty awesome | 06:04 |
| nilsma | dek_ugenk: try opening alsamixer and see if its enabled there | 06:04 |
| Jordan_U | toyo|desk: Does it show in the grub menu? If so what happens when you select windows? | 06:04 |
| Name141 | How do you install openssh server agian? sudo apt-get install openssh-server ? | 06:04 |
| TyanColte | hoonteke: yea, it's a problem, i've had windows 7 since before it was released and never had a crash, cryptic error, or problem yet | 06:04 |
| rww | Name141: yes | 06:04 |
| dek_ugenk | nilsma : yes its enabled...but when i try to record i only hear noise not my voice | 06:04 |
| nsadmin | the jist is... don't use grub legacy on a drive that doesn't have partitions | 06:05 |
| toyo|desk | Jordan_U, yes it shows and when I select it to start the screen goes blank with a blinking cursor in the top left corner | 06:05 |
| Name141 | rww: ok, I went back to karmic seeing as the shutdown 'error' is the same in both distros | 06:05 |
| mossby | nsadmin: hoonteke: but I am editing experimental videos from the command line.... that looks pretty good on the ol linux resume :D | 06:05 |
| TyanColte | hoonteke: besides, how do you run most mainstream programs, most don't support linux | 06:05 |
| Name141 | I'm still getting "system halted" and it doesn't power off completly on a shut down. | 06:06 |
| nilsma | dek_ugenk: oki, then im sorry to say i dont know enough about the subject to help you, hopefully someone else knows what you should do to make it work properly | 06:06 |
| dek_ugenk | nilsma : thx | 06:06 |
| nsadmin | I need to convert flv videos to mpeg4s... when I try, the audio stops being in sync, and the movie ends and the audio is cut off (so the audio is slower) | 06:06 |
| dek_ugenk | need help : my integrated mic not work on my acer 2930z, i just hear noise when i try to record, i use karmic | 06:07 |
| hoonteke | TyanColte: for my work purposes, I get along just fine. Firefox, OpenOffice, Matlab and octave (both, for complementary hipes and gripes), thunderbird, audacity, inkscape & gimp (I use both on a regular basis), VirtualBox, Evince (pdfs, which I like a *hell* of a lot better than Adobe's product) | 06:08 |
| hoonteke | all of them are better, IMHO than some of their proprietary equivalences. | 06:08 |
| Jordan_U | toyo|desk: It sounds like the windows bootloader is damaged for some reason, try running fixboot from the recovery console and follow this guide to restore grub afterward: http://grub.enbug.org/Grub2LiveCdInstallGuide | 06:09 |
| TyanColte | hoonteke: granted there are some great alternatives to the mainstream windows applications, but my question is, do you play games, haven't you noticed that none have linux installers? | 06:09 |
| Name141 | rww: do you think updating the BIOS would help it? | 06:09 |
| hoonteke | TyanColte: that would be one area in which I don't dwell, and to which you do have a point | 06:10 |
| gogeta | TyanColte: wine can handel most games and there is a few mmo with linux installers | 06:10 |
| hoonteke | TyanColte: dont' have much time for games. | 06:10 |
| TyanColte | gogeta: nice name btw, but wine dosn't handle D3d natively and i do not prefer openGL it results in lower framerates | 06:10 |
| hoonteke | gogeta: if you say so, but my experience has been, even with something as old as, say, Starcraft, that TyanColte is quite right. The gaming situation on Linux is lacking. | 06:10 |
| rww | Name141: did it used to work and now doesn't, or has it never worked? | 06:11 |
| TyanColte | hoonteke: thanks for the props | 06:11 |
| Name141 | rww: It worked in windows | 06:11 |
| toyo|desk | Jordan_U, alright I will try and find my XP cd thanks | 06:11 |
| toyo|desk | :) | 06:11 |
| gogeta | hoonteke: try the newer 1x wine it handels abought anything | 06:11 |
| rww | Name141: In Ubuntu, I mean | 06:11 |
| Name141 | rww: this is the first linux it's ever seen | 06:11 |
| rww | Name141: ah | 06:11 |
| hoonteke | TyanColte: there is a Alien Arena, which I believe is native linux and is a FPS. I was very impressed with it's performance. I tried it about 6 months ago. | 06:12 |
| rww | Name141: Yeah, you could try updating the BIOS. It's unlikely to help, but it could. | 06:12 |
| Jordan_U | toyo|desk: You're welcome. | 06:12 |
| Name141 | rww: I have no idea where I could get the BIOS for that old a machine. I wonder if Gateway Tech Support would help? | 06:12 |
| MrGoodkat | im on karmic and get following error in aften when im trying to open files >2GB: "Value too large for defined data type - could not open file" | 06:13 |
| Name141 | rww: I also don't have a floppy disk anymore | 06:13 |
| gogeta | TyanColte: well if your worryed aboughtlosing 2fps in the transcode i guess thats on you | 06:13 |
| MrGoodkat | anyway i can redefine the max value | 06:13 |
| MrGoodkat | *any way? | 06:13 |
| Dr_Willis | MrGoodkat: open with what exactly? | 06:14 |
| TyanColte | hoonteke: dont' get me wrong, the native linux apps on the software center work great with the linux hardware/software combination and gogeta: i beg to differ, i play WoW and on windows with full d3d 11 support i get a full 60FPS but on Ubuntu with openGL i only get like 12 FPS unless i turn off some important graphical options | 06:14 |
| MrGoodkat | aften | 06:14 |
| MrGoodkat | Dr_Willis im trying to reencode a dts stream to ac3 | 06:14 |
| gogeta | TyanColte: thats due to dx11 wine hasent gotten good emu on that | 06:15 |

| === James is now known as Guest25781 | ||
| DexterLB | houston I have a problem :( | 06:16 |
| rww | itilious: because that command has both -x for extract and -c for create new archive, which is nonsensical. | 06:16 |
| TyanColte | gogeta: it dosen't have to be dx11 with DX in general WoW runs better than on OpenGL | 06:16 |
| freezway | how do I change the tty resolution? | 06:17 |
| Alexander | hello today i'm join ubuntu | 06:17 |
| itilious | wow, i got it straight from their website (xampp) | 06:17 |
| rww | itilious: if you're trying to extract that tar.gz, remove the -c /opt off the end | 06:17 |
| itilious | is xampp not good then to use as a test server for a noob? lol | 06:17 |
| freezway | DexterLB, just ask, dont ask for permission ot ask | 06:17 |
| rww | ubottu: xampp | itilious | 06:17 |
| ubottu | itilious: We do not support XAMPP installs here. Please use the LAMP stack that is in our repositories, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP for more information. | 06:17 |
| itilious | thanks :) | 06:17 |
| TyanColte | anybody how to get a ntfs partition to automount on karmic? | 06:18 |
| gogeta | TyanColte: i run it in dx9 full speed on both windows and linux dx9 being i dont have a dx10 card | 06:18 |
| DexterLB | freezway: yeah I know but I think just now I remembered how to fix my problem | 06:18 |
| freezway | lol | 06:18 |
| Dr_Willis | TyanColte: add a proper entry for it in /etc/fstab. | 06:18 |

| Dr_Willis | doh.. spaces dident paste.. thats odd | 06:19 |
| gogeta | TyanColte: but your right on opengl your removing a emulation layer hence more speed | 06:19 |
| itilious | rww, now i'm getting this error after removing the "-c /opt" http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/422043/ | 06:19 |

| DexterLB | fixed ;) | 06:19 |
| itilious | the file IS on the desktop | 06:19 |
| TyanColte | gogeta: bad thing is wow doesn't support opengl by default so it dosen't run right proper using the opengl flag | 06:19 |
| rww | itilious: you're not on the desktop. Like ubottu said, we don't support xampp installs. | 06:20 |
| gogeta | TyanColte: why i use dx9 | 06:20 |
| itilious | i'm just simply trying to find out how to extract an archive to the /opt folder though | 06:20 |
| TyanColte | there's not really an option to change it | 06:20 |
| rww | itilious: the webpage probably meant -C instead of -c | 06:21 |
| gogeta | TyanColte: same flage to use opengl | 06:21 |
| mossby | I realize now I could probably automate the entire process | 06:21 |
| TyanColte | -directx9? | 06:21 |
| TyanColte | or 10 | 06:21 |
| itilious | rww, ha ha i actually just did that too when installing the ubuntu guest OS additions | 06:21 |
| itilious | thanks again :) | 06:22 |
| gogeta | TyanColte: lemmie look | 06:22 |
| TyanColte | gogeta: ok, i want to at least use 10 if possible cuz my laptop card supports it | 06:22 |
| JuanCarlosPaco | hello, go0d N!ghtz | 06:22 |
| JuanCarlosPaco | here charming the python | 06:22 |
| gogeta | TyanColte: you do it threw winetrick | 06:23 |
| gogeta | winetricks | 06:23 |
| foul_owl | anyone know why gnome won't save my file view preferences | 06:23 |
| TyanColte | gogeta: what's winetricks? | 06:23 |
| gogeta | TyanColte: with the naic dlls installed it uses dx9 | 06:23 |
| gogeta | http://wiki.winehq.org/winetricks | 06:23 |
| gogeta | TyanColte: with the nativ dlls it will use the version of directx you install | 06:24 |
| gogeta | TyanColte: tricks the games | 06:25 |
| gogeta | TyanColte: i guess for dx10 set your windows ver to vista should force wow to dx10 | 06:27 |
| itilious | whats the alternative in ubuntu to use "su"? | 06:27 |
| rama_ | sudo | 06:27 |
| itilious | do i use type in sudo before the command and presto? | 06:27 |
| itilious | ah ha, right on | 06:27 |
| hnd | yup | 06:27 |
| itilious | thanks rama_ | 06:27 |
| itilious | and hnd :) | 06:28 |
| rama_ | welcome | 06:28 |
| hnd | noo probs :D | 06:28 |
| TyanColte | gogeta: i don't see nativ dlls | 06:28 |
| gogeta | TyanColte: winetricks does it all for you | 06:28 |
| TyanColte | so i install directx 9 from winetricks? | 06:29 |
| JuanCarlosPaco | buenas noches | 06:29 |
| gogeta | TyanColte: then just set the windows ver to vista | 06:29 |
| achilles | i want to view the stack during a function call operation, how can i achieve my goal..? | 06:29 |
| TyanColte | i'll stick with xp wine doesn't have the proper parameters to emulate vista and windows 7 sofware audio apis | 06:29 |
| TyanColte | yet | 06:29 |
| gogeta | TyanColte: once you got winetricks just sh winetricks d3dx10 | 06:30 |
| rama_ | Hi I installed WINE hoping that it can open .exe files. It opens .exe files to only half way, and some error popups (mostly looking for dll files) | 06:30 |
| gogeta | TyanColte: it will handel seeting the dlls | 06:30 |
| rama_ | Can anyone pls shed some light how to open Windows exe files | 06:31 |
| TyanColte | d3dx10 works with windows xp anyway so i'll just stick with winxp mode | 06:31 |
| JuanCarlosPaco | rama_: why do you want to run exe ? | 06:31 |
| hnd | rama_ wine | 06:31 |
| gogeta | TyanColte: then do it with dx9 | 06:31 |
| TyanColte | if i use anything else the sound on wow won't work | 06:31 |
| xangua | what kind of apps are you trying to run rama_¿ | 06:31 |
| xangua | !appdb | rama_ | 06:31 |
| gogeta | TyanColte: it should speed up the emulation alot | 06:31 |
| TyanColte | so sh winetricks d3dx9? | 06:31 |
| ubottu | rama_: The Wine Application DB is a database of applications and help for !Windows programs that run under !WINE: http://appdb.winehq.org - Join #winehq for application help | 06:31 |
| rama_ | Thanks Juan, hand and Xangua | 06:31 |
| gogeta | TyanColte: yea | 06:31 |
| TyanColte | gogeta: thanks | 06:32 |
| hnd | rama_ use wine... it runs windows apps | 06:32 |

| gogeta | TyanColte: oh | 06:32 |
| rama_ | So Hnd, is Wine only limited to open windows builtin apps ??? | 06:32 |
| JuanCarlosPaco | rama_: check planner | 06:32 |
| TyanColte | i did d3dx10 first and i ctrl+c it when u said use dx9 | 06:33 |
| rama_ | check planner ? | 06:33 |
| JuanCarlosPaco | something msproject-ish ? | 06:33 |
| gogeta | TyanColte: yea just delete the file in that dir its confusing it | 06:33 |
| rama_ | juan: OK | 06:33 |
| gogeta | TyanColte: that will fix that | 06:33 |
| JuanCarlosPaco | planner is a linux program to general purpose planning | 06:33 |
| TyanColte | gogeta: i just got floodbotted | 06:33 |
| ubuntubama | xo | 06:34 |
| hnd | rama_ :yup | 06:34 |
| hnd | well it was made for running windows apps... | 06:34 |
| gogeta | TyanColte: just delete the file in the dir its telling you and do it again | 06:34 |
| TyanColte | gogeta: i got it | 06:35 |
| itilious | whenever I try to create a launcher no icon is created on the desktop and I can't figure out where ubuntu is having the error | 06:35 |
| TyanColte | gogeta: i don't know if you can see me, i just got floodbotted | 06:35 |
| rama_ | Juan and Had, do you know how to install windows setup application in ubuntu ??? | 06:35 |
| gogeta | TyanColte: i see you | 06:35 |
| TyanColte | gogeta: ok | 06:35 |
| hoonteke | mossby: you probably can. I see a lot of blogs go by about automating media stuffs with the shell | 06:36 |
| TyanColte | gogeta: when i pasted that error i got floodbotted | 06:36 |
| JuanCarlosPaco | rama_: probably theres no reason for that | 06:36 |
| TyanColte | gogeta: wtf is pastebin | 06:36 |
| hoonteke | mossby: but I usually find that I have to go through it the long way before it becomes "obvious" how to automate it | 06:36 |
| gogeta | TyanColte: lol yea its just couse another file is in the dir just delete it | 06:36 |
| JuanCarlosPaco | rama_: only a yet-to-know alternative | 06:36 |
| hoonteke | TyanColte: http://pastebin.ca/ or http://dpaste.com/ | 06:36 |
| rama_ | because, at the moment couple of applications are only limited to windows. | 06:36 |
| achilles | hello | 06:36 |
| achilles | is anyone there ready to help me..? | 06:37 |
| hoonteke | TyanColte: it's a way to share temporary but large amounts of data, so that you don't get kicked by channel bots for "sharing too much" with the room. | 06:37 |
| JuanCarlosPaco | rama_: search for linux alternatives, you will find good things | 06:37 |
| rama_ | OK thanks Juan | 06:37 |
| rama_ | Linux alternatives ! | 06:38 |
| hoonteke | TyanColte: there are plenty of then, but they're generally called "pastebins" because pastebin.com was, I believe, the first such web site to do it. | 06:38 |
| freezway | hey how do i set my tty resolution to something other than 1024x768. my moniter is 1920x1080 and i have an nvidia gfx card (GTS 250) | 06:38 |
| Dr_Willis | !fb | 06:38 |
| ubottu | Information about changing your framebuffer modes in GRUB can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FrameBuffer#grub | 06:38 |
| Dr_Willis | freezway: framebeffer can do that | 06:38 |
| TyanColte | gots me a new question, when i had my wubi installed i was able to see the weather on my time on my top panel, now that i have a dedicated install it's not working | 06:38 |
| freezway | Dr_Willis, can u elaborate? | 06:39 |
| JuanCarlosPaco | xrandr -s 3 # makes 800x600 on CLI | 06:39 |
| nilsma | achilles: ask your question and im sure they will try to help you as best as possible :) | 06:39 |
| TyanColte | gogeta: what do i do now that it's installed | 06:39 |
| freezway | JuanCarlosPaco, huh? | 06:39 |
| Dr_Willis | freezway: see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FrameBuffer | 06:39 |
| achilles | how to view the stack output in ubuntu..? | 06:39 |
| xangua | TyanColte: you need to set your location; maybe the service is temporaly unaviable | 06:39 |
| TyanColte | xangua: i did set my location, but it's not working | 06:40 |
| JuanCarlosPaco | xrandr is a CLI program to set resolution | 06:40 |
| gogeta | TyanColte: cd /home/chrisrogers/.winetrickscache/./ | 06:40 |

| freezway | Dr_Willis, I got the correct res in grub by setting GRUB_GFXMODE=1920x1080 but GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD=keep does nothing.... | 06:42 |
| TyanColte | gogeta: ok, now what? | 06:42 |
| gogeta | TyanColte: ls and do you see the dx exe | 06:42 |
| JuanCarlosPaco | sudo apt-get install xrandr && xrandr -s 3 | 06:43 |
| gogeta | TyanColte: then just rm the file | 06:43 |
| gogeta | rm dx.exe | 06:43 |
| gogeta | of course use the real name and you can tab so you dont gotta type it all | 06:43 |
| freezway | JuanCarlosPaco, Package xrandr is not available, but is referred to by another package. | 06:44 |
| JuanCarlosPaco | meh, yeah | 06:44 |
| freezway | JuanCarlosPaco, also, please type my name first. u can use tab to autocomplete | 06:44 |

| JuanCarlosPaco | freezway: sudo apt-get install x11-xserver-utils | 06:45 |

| JuanCarlosPaco | freezway: man xrandr | 06:46 |
| JuanCarlosPaco | freezway: choose the resolution that works for you | 06:47 |
| gogeta | TyanColte: slow card | 06:47 |

| freezway | JuanCarlosPaco, brb | 06:48 |
| TyanColte | gogeta: but you probably have a desktop computer | 06:48 |
| gogeta | TyanColte: auses g73 | 06:48 |
| TyanColte | gogeta: laptop? | 06:48 |
| gogeta | TyanColte: its aa mobilty buts its the same power as a desktop card | 06:49 |
| freezway | JuanCarlosPaco, that doesn't work in the tty | 06:49 |
| JuanCarlosPaco | freezway: too bad | 06:49 |
| gogeta | TyanColte: currntly the fastest gpu you can get | 06:49 |
| JuanCarlosPaco | need to hack the grub maybe | 06:50 |
| JuanCarlosPaco | fb800x600 | 06:50 |
| TyanColte | gogeta: i can't update my laptop graphics card even tho it says i have a mini pcie card | 06:50 |
| freezway | JuanCarlosPaco, I tried... got grub to go at the correct res, but not the tty | 06:50 |
| gogeta | TyanColte: but a 2600 is a kinda dated card | 06:50 |
| TyanColte | gogeta: true, but it works for any of my games very well | 06:50 |
| gogeta | TyanColte: even low ends use a 3200 or a 4200 | 06:50 |
| TyanColte | gogeta: well if i could update i would, and i don't want to buy a new laptop | 06:51 |
| freezway | JuanCarlosPaco, also, when i hit ctrl alt F1 i get usplash: set mode 1152x864 failed | 06:51 |
| gogeta | TyanColte: thats the cool thing abought a g73 i can acess the gpu meaning i could upgrade it | 06:51 |
| gogeta | TyanColte: its the first of its kind | 06:51 |
| freezway | JuanCarlosPaco, then using mode 1024x768 | 06:51 |
| JuanCarlosPaco | freezway: normal | 06:51 |
| TyanColte | gogeta: well good for you, but i don't have the cash to buy a laptop that lets me do that :P | 06:52 |
| JuanCarlosPaco | freezway: it thy from biggest resolution to smaller | 06:52 |
| JuanCarlosPaco | try* | 06:52 |
| freezway | yeah i know | 06:52 |
| freezway | but i want 1920x1080 | 06:52 |
| gogeta | TyanColte: well that was the selling point for me i replaced a 6 year old desktop | 06:52 |
| nsadmin | will your monitor do that resolution natively? | 06:53 |
| freezway | yes | 06:53 |
| JuanCarlosPaco | xinit && xrandr -s 3 | 06:53 |
| freezway | i am running it now, i just cant get it in the tty's | 06:53 |
| JuanCarlosPaco | quick'n'dirty | 06:53 |
| JuanCarlosPaco | :) | 06:53 |
| freezway | JuanCarlosPaco, doesn't that start X? | 06:53 |
| gogeta | TyanColte: wine is probly to mutch overhead for that gpu so you whernt wrong there | 06:54 |
| JuanCarlosPaco | and X based TTy | 06:54 |
| TyanColte | i'm getting like 4 FPS now | 06:54 |
| freezway | TyanColte, what are you runninh? | 06:54 |
| freezway | brb | 06:54 |
| TyanColte | freezway: world of warcraft | 06:54 |
| gogeta | TyanColte: you can always set the flls back to emu if that slowed you down | 06:54 |
| gogeta | dlls | 06:55 |
| freezway | TyanColte, have you tryed adding an -opengl tag? | 06:55 |
| gogeta | freezway: i was trying to spped it upp in wine for him didnt seem to work | 06:55 |
| gogeta | speed | 06:55 |
| TyanColte | it's fine, i'll just switch to windows when i want to play wow | 06:55 |
| freezway | TyanColte, try the -opengl tag, it works for me with wc3 | 06:56 |
| achilles | hello, can anyone help me out..? | 06:56 |
| gogeta | freezway: i dont think his old gpucan handel the overhead of wine | 06:56 |
| JuanCarlosPaco | install it on ram, read about tmpfs, to speed up | 06:56 |
| achilles | i want to view the stack while execution the program.. | 06:56 |
| achilles | how can i achieve this | 06:57 |
| freezway | how powerful is the comp? | 06:57 |
| achilles | is this not the proper channel..? | 06:57 |
| freezway | achilles, i dont know.... | 06:58 |
| gogeta | freezway: ati 2600 labby | 06:58 |
| freezway | oooh | 06:58 |
| rww | achilles: Which language are you programming in? | 06:58 |
| JuanCarlosPaco | whats Stack?, a Debug? | 06:58 |
| nsadmin | achilles: try gdb | 06:58 |
| freezway | hey i found a hit about a similar problem someone had, it says to remove usplash, is that OK, will it hurt my comp? | 06:59 |
| gogeta | TyanColte: wine work good but i think your gpu just cant handel it. it relly works good with dedcated systems like mine | 06:59 |
| TyanColte | ok, it's not a bad system, it runs portal at full graphics settings with no loss of framerate, which is saying something | 06:59 |
| TyanColte | i don't like people saying my hardware is basically crap | 06:59 |
| gogeta | TyanColte: i can reun portal in hd on my 6 year old desktop with a ati 9200 | 06:59 |
| JuanCarlosPaco | freezway: dont hurt | 06:59 |
| gogeta | TyanColte: its not a heavy game | 07:00 |
| JuanCarlosPaco | freezway: remove "splash" from grub kernel parameters | 07:00 |
| kishor666 | can somebidy help me wit the codecs for mp3 | 07:00 |
| freezway | so its ok | 07:00 |
| Dr_Willis | !mp3 | 07:00 |
| ubottu | For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also https://help.ubuntu.com/9.04/musicvideophotos/C/video.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats | 07:00 |
| freezway | ok | 07:00 |
| freezway | where are the grub kernel parameters? | 07:00 |
| kishor666 | thank u | 07:00 |
| TyanColte | gogeta: bull, the reason i got this lappy is because my old one couldn't play portal it was running a mobility radeon 9000 | 07:00 |
| kishor666 | :D | 07:00 |
| campee | has anyone seen a way to make a ubuntu system revert to its default state at boot time? something that is the equivalent of "deep freeze" for windows | 07:00 |
| gogeta | TyanColte: mobilty cards are weak to a dedcated system | 07:01 |
| Dr_Willis | campee: not really. except in somehting like virtualbox/vmware | 07:01 |
| gogeta | TyanColte: it wasent untill the g73 did mobilty get just as strong | 07:01 |
| seth_g | campee, live cd/usb? | 07:01 |
| freezway | JuanCarlosPaco, where are said parameters? | 07:01 |
| TyanColte | gogeta: well unless i am able to upgrade this card i dont' plan on getting a new lappy any time soon, and i have no love for desktop computers, they're not portable | 07:01 |
| campee | live usb might be the best way to do it.. | 07:01 |
| JuanCarlosPaco | campee: /usr/share/gdm/guest-session/guest-session-launch | 07:01 |
| campee | i know how to do it with a vm but then i have to connect the machine to the vm and that makes things more difficult for the user | 07:02 |
| gogeta | TyanColte: well when shoping for a labby it is a bit more costly but find one with a dedcated | 07:02 |
| campee | this is for a library type setup | 07:02 |
| seth_g | oh campee | 07:02 |
| campee | JuanCarlosPaco: what's that? | 07:02 |
| TyanColte | gogeta: this was top of the line when i got it | 07:02 |
| truth-teller | any1 use xbmc in ubuntu? | 07:02 |
| seth_g | then try the netbook remix to help lock it down | 07:02 |
| gogeta | TyanColte: with a shard 2600 it wasent | 07:02 |
| freezway | gogeta, TyanColte lets not start a desktop vs laptop war | 07:02 |
| JuanCarlosPaco | run it, will use a session that forgets changes on reboot | 07:02 |
| gogeta | TyanColte: it was more a midrange | 07:03 |
| seth_g | or a kiosk program | 07:03 |
| JuanCarlosPaco | just like deep frezze thingy | 07:03 |
| freezway | JuanCarlosPaco, where are said paramters | 07:03 |
| TyanColte | i don't have to listen to this | 07:03 |
| gogeta | TyanColte: but upgrading the ram should gie it a good bost being a shard card uses that hevaly | 07:03 |
| TyanColte | i've got 4gb maxed out ram | 07:03 |
| JuanCarlosPaco | freezway: /boot/grub/grub.cfg (?) | 07:03 |
| freezway | JuanCarlosPaco, ur not s'posed to edit that with grub2 | 07:04 |
| campee | JuanCarlosPaco: that's cool. how can you get it to boot into this? | 07:04 |
| JuanCarlosPaco | freezway: correct, you are hacking your system :) | 07:04 |
| gogeta | TyanColte: well its hard to find a good labby if you got it from a box store. genrely the beefy models can only be found online | 07:05 |
| TyanColte | gogeta: i've got a good system, it runs anything i want it to with no problem, wine just needs to support D3D natively and not emulate it and i'll be golden | 07:05 |
| ZykoticK9 | JuanCarlosPaco, freaky[t] if you are using grub2 and want to make changes check out /etc/default/grub (or the !grub2 factoid link for more details) | 07:05 |
| ZykoticK9 | freezway, ^ | 07:05 |
| gogeta | TyanColte: unfortanly that will neer happon | 07:05 |
| JuanCarlosPaco | campee: use GDM auto-Login, and add /usr/share/gdm/guest-session/guest-session-launch to .profile on your home folder | 07:05 |
| TyanColte | gogeta: i bought mine online | 07:05 |
| jad | hello there | 07:05 |
| kishor666 | i have a decade old comp n installed 5.04, fresher to ubuntu can u guys pls help??? | 07:06 |
| jad | does anyone know of a simple chat room service online | 07:06 |
| chris59 | Hi Guys, potential dumb question: Are there icons for hard drives? I'm trying to mount an external win drive and I don't know if I can't see it because I don;t know where to look or because it's not mounting at all | 07:06 |
| jad | no signup no anything | 07:06 |
| gogeta | TyanColte: newegg is a good place to find models with desktop cards in them | 07:06 |
| TyanColte | gogeta: well then that's why i will always have a windows system dual booted | 07:06 |
| jad | kinda like irc | 07:06 |
| freezway | brb | 07:06 |
| TyanColte | i will never be able to have a ubuntu only system with that reason only | 07:06 |
| jad | help guys | 07:06 |
| TyanColte | because the software can't support the hardware | 07:06 |
| ZykoticK9 | kishor666, 5.04 is way too old to be supported. Probably better to reinstall at this point (vs trying to upgrade) | 07:07 |
| gogeta | TyanColte: you get a goood enough video card you dont see the diffrence | 07:07 |
| jad | does anyone know of a simple chat room service online ?? Without signup ? | 07:07 |
| TyanColte | just forget it, i've gotta go | 07:07 |
| rww | ubottu: ot | jad | 07:07 |
| jad | just create a room and chat | 07:07 |

| TyanColte | i'll run my games in windows 7 where i have no problems | 07:07 |
| TyanColte | thanks for all the help | 07:08 |
| kishor666 | zykoticK9, i have downloaded 8.10, how do i update now? | 07:08 |
| gogeta | TyanColte: yea running windows for games is still the best way | 07:08 |
| kishor666 | shud i back up all the stuff now? | 07:09 |
| chris59 | TyanColte: go to www.oolite.org a really fun space trading combat game that runs on linux | 07:09 |
| JuanCarlosPaco | allways back up | 07:09 |
| freezway | yes back up | 07:09 |
| ZykoticK9 | kishor666, best bet would be to backup your files and do a clean "fresh"install of the 8.10 (which is only really current for a few more days, so you'll be upgrading to something kinda outdated to begin with unfortunately) but it is at least in the ball park. | 07:09 |
| campee | JuanCarlosPaco: thanks, i'll play around with that | 07:10 |
| kishor666 | no click n update kinda stuff? (pardon me, new to this OS) | 07:10 |
| gogeta | kishor666: i would just get the rc of the next lts. | 07:10 |
| JuanCarlosPaco | campee: ok, it works, i got a ciberkiosk like these, make backup of the files | 07:11 |
| gogeta | kishor666: that way your not updating in a few days | 07:11 |
| === DaveySC is now known as DSC[ZzZZ] | ||
| kishor666 | so, only way, freshly install....??? | 07:11 |
| ZykoticK9 | gogeta, kishor666 rather then using rc, wait till thursday to get lucid final | 07:11 |
| gogeta | kishor666: yea you fell way to far back | 07:11 |
| kishor666 | i hav a pc havin just 256 RAM n P-III processor | 07:12 |
| gogeta | kishor666: you do not have to format your home partation if you have one. so any data there whont get lost | 07:13 |
| campee | JuanCarlosPaco: can you, as admin, customize this guest profile? | 07:13 |
| gogeta | kishor666: just the root or / | 07:13 |
| kishor666 | i have only one drive partition | 07:13 |
| JuanCarlosPaco | campee: yes, i dont remember how to | 07:13 |
| kishor666 | its just a 40gb hdd | 07:13 |

| gogeta | kishor666: move your data on another drive like a usb | 07:15 |
| kishor666 | then, freshluy install??? | 07:15 |
| JuanCarlosPaco | freezway: its just a program, you can run anytime "xsplash" and you get it | 07:15 |
| gogeta | kishor666: any music videos etc | 07:15 |
| gogeta | kishor666: yea | 07:15 |
| freezway | ok | 07:15 |

| JuanCarlosPaco | hehe | 07:16 |
| kishor666 | OMG, i just did it a week back :-( i have two version in hand, which shud i install, keepin in mind my old comp 8.10 or 9.04??? | 07:16 |
| gogeta | kishor666: well both will be updated in a few days | 07:17 |
| gogeta | kishor666: to lucid | 07:17 |
| kishor666 | lucid? | 07:17 |
| gogeta | kishor666: the next ubuntu lts | 07:17 |
| kishor666 | hmm | 07:18 |
| kishor666 | so any of those is ok? | 07:18 |
| gogeta | kishor666: you can install the rc of that if you like and be fully updated | 07:18 |
| kishor666 | sorry to ask, wats rc? | 07:18 |
| gogeta | kishor666: rc means pretty mutch final anyways | 07:18 |
| gogeta | relese canadit | 07:18 |
| kishor666 | whoa! i learnt somethin new today ! | 07:19 |
| kishor666 | @ gogeta thanks | 07:19 |
| Losha | kishor666: rc == release candidate... | 07:19 |
| gogeta | yea nv my spelling | 07:19 |
| kishor666 | T Y | 07:19 |
| kishor666 | :-D | 07:19 |
| kishor666 | wat are repositories? | 07:19 |
| gogeta | kishor666: or wait a cuple days for final and just upgrade then | 07:19 |
| Losha | if lucid follows the pattern of previous releases, there will be a stabilization phase lasting about a couple of months after the release data... | 07:20 |
| gogeta | Losha: its a lts so they did that aruldy | 07:20 |
| llutz | couple == 6 month, when next release comes :) | 07:20 |
| gogeta | lts last for 3 years | 07:21 |
| === kermit is now known as karmafist | ||
| JuanCarlosPaco | 5 | 07:21 |
| gogeta | the 6 months ones we run are all testing for the next lts | 07:21 |
| Losha | gogeta: I don't believe that. They are tied to a promised release data, whether they are ready for it or not. That almost always means they release what they have, then stabilize it later... | 07:21 |
| Losha | data -> date | 07:21 |
| llutz | gogeta: nice theory | 07:22 |
| gogeta | llutz: its how ubuntu does things | 07:22 |
| gogeta | llutz: we have lts and bleeding edge | 07:22 |
| llutz | gogeta: in theory, yes. practically its like Losha said | 07:22 |
| llutz | gogeta: bleeding edge? where? | 07:23 |
| killerz2222 | testing. | 07:23 |
| killerz2222 | quit logout | 07:23 |
| gogeta | llutz: well for the non lts thats correct | 07:23 |
| Losha | kishor666: repositories are collections of applications for you to download... | 07:23 |
| kishor666 | hmm learnin aout this new things are interesting! | 07:23 |
| llutz | gogeta: please stop that fanboy-blah and look what happened after all recent releases | 07:23 |
| gogeta | llutz: they where alll non lts its to be expected | 07:24 |

| itilious | how can i give filezilla or any applicatoin the permission to write to a folder in the /opt directory? | 07:24 |
| kishor666 | my media player says codecs not found, wat do i do now? | 07:25 |
| gogeta | kishor666: it should ask you if you wanna download them | 07:25 |
| Losha | gogeta: even for an lts, there's a feature list and a release data. Some features will be ready, some will be so unready you have to exclude them altogether, and the rest are in various states of undress, which you address over time.... | 07:25 |
| syli725 | hi, what is the best bittorrent client in linux? I used to use azureus(vuze). It was good before. but now, it's becoming too heavy. browser feature loads a lot of flash contents kills my cpu. thanks. | 07:25 |

| freezway | hey if i want to disable splash and quit would a line in /etc/default/grub be GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="" instead of GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash" | 07:25 |
| freezway | or is there something like none you have to put there? | 07:26 |
| gogeta | syli725: ubuntu comes with a rather good one | 07:26 |
| JuanCarlosPaco | freezway: dont remove quiet | 07:26 |
| JuanCarlosPaco | freezway: remove splash | 07:26 |
| freezway | y not. I want to see is happening | 07:26 |
| llutz | !best > syli725 | 07:26 |
| ubottu | syli725, please see my private message | 07:26 |
| Losha | freezway: it should work like you say. And I always remove "quiet"... | 07:26 |
| freezway | removing quiet is like adding a --verbose correct? | 07:26 |
| kishor666 | gogeta: it dint ask me for a download now | 07:27 |
| Losha | freezway: correct | 07:27 |
| freezway | so, is it just an empty string? do i comment it out? | 07:27 |
| gogeta | kishor666: what you trying to play | 07:27 |
| syli725 | gogeta, thanks. what is the name? | 07:27 |
| llutz | syli725: let it be empty | 07:27 |
| JuanCarlosPaco | removing Quiet SlowDown the BootTimez | 07:27 |
| Losha | freezway: it's just a string that gets added to the boot line, either should work, but I'd let it be empty | 07:27 |
| gogeta | syli725: transmission it has most of the features azures has like blacklist | 07:28 |
| freezway | ok what does GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX do? | 07:28 |
| freezway | it has splash in it | 07:28 |
| syli725 | gogeta, ok. thanks. | 07:28 |
| gogeta | syli725: its defult for ubuntu so you aruldy have it | 07:28 |
| freezway | my line is GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=" splash vga=769" | 07:28 |
| Losha | JuanCarlosPaco: yes, it probably does, though not so much that you'd notice it terribly I think... | 07:29 |
| syli725 | gogeta, ok. | 07:29 |
| jsnems | sierra | 07:29 |
| JuanCarlosPaco | Losha: depends | 07:29 |
| [M]6N3H | hi all | 07:29 |

| freezway | so... anyone at all know what GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=" splash vga=769" means? | 07:36 |
| gogeta | freezway: vga=769 is frweamebuffer mode | 07:36 |
| gogeta | framebuffer | 07:36 |
| freezway | so can i set it to a res like say, 1920x1080 | 07:37 |
| gogeta | freezway: yea but the number code is diffrent | 07:37 |
| llutz | freezway: the vga=... notation is deprecated, gfxpayload should be used | 07:37 |

| gogeta | ack who uses dial modems | 07:40 |
| Ken8521 | people in the sticks? | 07:40 |
| gogeta | Ken8521: naa they use satlites | 07:40 |
| Ken8521 | gogeta, hardly... i know lots of folks in the sticks who use dial up, because satellite service typically sucks and is unreliable | 07:41 |

| === magus_ is now known as Magus_the_Elder | ||
| Losha | gogeta: I think you underestimate the distances involved. The 'sticks' can be very large and far away... | 07:44 |
| gogeta | Losha: and you undermastate the distance point to point can get | 07:44 |
| gogeta | Losha: ofcourse both partys need a high gain directinal setup | 07:46 |
| Losha | So what do you reckon is a feasible top distance for customised point-to-point? | 07:46 |
| gogeta | Losha: well the distance record was all the way across lake mitchagion | 07:47 |
| the_file | is is possible to make ubuntu portable the same way puppy is?. | 07:47 |
| gogeta | Losha: 5 miles is doable if there both mounted above the trees | 07:48 |
| gogeta | Losha: in most settings | 07:48 |
| Losha | gogeta: that's quite large, being one of the great lakes. In some areas, 5 miles just gets you to the neighbour's farm.. | 07:48 |
| gogeta | Losha: wifi can have some killer range when you go from radio waves to a radio beam | 07:50 |
| teflon | llutz, from the commandline? what commands? | 07:50 |
| gogeta | Losha: and being point to point its also hard to leech | 07:51 |
| gogeta | Losha: it doesent brodcast in every direction | 07:51 |
| llutz | teflon: look at /lib/udev/rules.d if there are any related rule-sets. if not, create your own to create /dev/video0 depending on your device in /etc/udev/rules.d. look at the forums/wiki how | 07:52 |
| Losha | gogeta: yeah, that's probably the way to go... | 07:52 |
| gogeta | Losha: thats the setup i gave my brother being the city has free wifi but he was out of range | 07:53 |
| gogeta | Losha: so i got him a massiv dish array | 07:53 |

| gogeta | Losha: anything off the shelf even range max are 5 fbi | 07:55 |
| gogeta | dbi | 07:56 |
| gogeta | Losha: so you can image the diffrence in range and the fact its being focused rather then just going in any direction | 07:56 |

| raven_ | disk space: what is the difference between free and available? | 08:15 |
| findsndcard | thebeast_: download source code from here: http://pulseaudio.org/wiki/DownloadPulseAudio then open terminal, cd /home/user/Downloads, tar -xvf pulse*.gz, cd pulse*, ./configure && make && sudo make install (you may have to install the dependencies when ./configure fails) | 08:15 |
| llutz | wookienz: it can be a directory encrypted with ecryptfs, truecrypt, whatever | 08:16 |

| findsndcard | how do i find which /dev is my sound card (using pulse audio) in latest Ubuntu | 08:16 |
| Pumpkin | Would anyone be able to point me in the right direction if I wanted to create a new partition on ubuntu? I have the default installation but would like to move my /home to another partition. | 08:16 |
| findsndcard | !partition | Pumpkin | 08:17 |
| ubottu | Pumpkin: For help with partitioning a new install see: https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/switching/installing-partitioning.html - For partitioning programs see !GParted, !QtParted (!Kubuntu 8.10 and lower) or !PartitionManager (!Kubuntu 9.04 and up) - Other partitioning topics include !fstab !home and !swap | 08:17 |
| findsndcard | !home | Pumpkin | 08:17 |
| ubottu | Pumpkin: Your home directory is where all of your personal files are usually kept. For moving your home directory to a separate partition, please see: http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/separatehome | 08:17 |
| llutz | raven_: if there is reserved space for root, free doesn't mean available. available is what you (user) may use | 08:17 |
| raven_ | llutz, how to reduce that? | 08:18 |
| Pumpkin | ok, I'l give it a go. | 08:18 |
| findsndcard | how do i find which /dev is my sound card (using pulse audio) in latest Ubuntu | 08:19 |
| llutz | raven_: tune2fs -m XX where XX is the reserved value in percent (dumpe2fs /dev/sdXY | grep Reserved to show the actual value) | 08:20 |

| Tiven | hello, i used finnix to copy my /var/ /var/log /tmp/ /home each one in a partition, edited fstab but now im getting errors on boot.. its like it cant mount the partitions on startup, especially /var | 08:20 |
| ravenkhan | hii | 08:21 |
| Tiven | hi | 08:21 |
| shey | Crazy question people. Is there a way I can send a visual message to the person logged into this particular terminal? I am in thgrough ssh. And yeah, I have root, its my machine. | 08:21 |
| furby_ | hi | 08:21 |
| llutz | shey: try "wall" | 08:21 |

| shey | For you info, I am in the midst of the google phase, so yeah, I am using the cow powers. | 08:22 |
| ravenkhan | i have ubuntu 9.1 with SIS card | 08:22 |
| shey | wall? ty I shall start my quest there. | 08:22 |
| switch10_ | Tiven: what is the error? you gave /var, and /tmp there own partitions? | 08:22 |
| Tiven | yes | 08:22 |
| Tiven | error used to be something about /var/run that couldnt be mounted | 08:23 |
| switch10_ | Tiven: for what reason? | 08:23 |
| ravenkhan | hello anybody? | 08:23 |
| findsndcard | shey: maybe move all Desktop files to folder, make a text file on Desktop, and kill the app the user is using so they will see the Desktop | 08:23 |
| findsndcard | !welcome | ravenkhan | 08:23 |
| ubottu | ravenkhan: 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! | 08:23 |
| Tiven | its a server, and i want it to not have any problems incase var or log gets full | 08:23 |
| Tiven | should i paste the error on pastebin ? | 08:24 |
| ravenkhan | can anyone tell me how can i enable 3d effects in my laptop & i have ubuntu 9.1 with SIS card | 08:24 |
| llutz | Tiven: are the fstab-entries in the right order? | 08:24 |
| switch10_ | Tiven: Yeah post the error. | 08:24 |
| Tiven | they need to be in order? didnt know that :S | 08:24 |
| shey | I just assumed being as I know they are on the desktop, I can send a visual message or something to Gnome, and have it displayed on the desktop. | 08:24 |
| Tiven | so /var goes after / ? | 08:24 |
| Tiven | ok switch10_ ill upload, sec | 08:24 |
| shey | Like a notice or something. | 08:25 |
| findsndcard | how do i find which /dev is my sound card (using pulse audio) in latest Ubuntu | 08:25 |
| llutz | findsndcard: hopefully youdl never have root-power on multiuser-systems | 08:25 |
| belus_ | With what application can I play sid files? | 08:25 |
| ravenkhan | can anyone tell me how can i enable 3d effects in my laptop & i have ubuntu 9.1 with SIS card | 08:25 |
| llutz | Tiven: sure, and /var/xxx after /var etc.pp. | 08:25 |
| Ryan1 | shey: It looks like wall is for terminals only... you could try notify-send if you can set the display thing first... I'm not sure how to do that though | 08:25 |
| ravenkhan | hello ! can anyone tell me how can i enable 3d effects in my laptop & i have ubuntu 9.1 with SIS card | 08:26 |
| Dr_Willis | ravenkhan: i dont think sis cards can do 3d - so they cant do the 3d effects | 08:26 |
| WebDawg | What do you mean by 3d effects ravenkhan ? | 08:26 |
| WebDawg | glxgears? | 08:26 |
| Tiven | switch10_ http://pastebin.com/EZtaPeFY | 08:26 |
| psycho_oreos | ravenkhan, I don't think you'll have much luck with getting SIS cards to do 3D, the support for them has been somewhat fairly minimal | 08:26 |
| ravenkhan | WebDawg : 3d i mean extra effects under appearance | 08:27 |
| findsndcard | anyone know how to locate the /dev for my sound card (/dev/dsp and /dev/snd are not them) | 08:27 |
| WebDawg | What? | 08:27 |
| Tiven | llutz great ill try it now, what about the options in the /var/log entry? i couldnt find these and left it on default | 08:27 |
| WebDawg | Go to the tab and enable them then. | 08:27 |
| Tiven | i mean on fstab <options> entry | 08:27 |
| ravenkhan | WebDawg : 3d i mean extra effects under appearance | 08:27 |
| llutz | Tiven: should be fine in most cases | 08:27 |
| WebDawg | ravenkhan, your impossible. | 08:28 |
| ravenkhan | WebDawg : i went there and tried but it said effects cant be enables | 08:28 |
| belus_ | With what application can I play sid files? | 08:28 |
| ravenkhan | WebDawg : what are you trying to say by i am impossible? | 08:28 |
| shey | hrmm. | 08:29 |
| ShazbotMcNasty | I need to delete my swap, can I create a new swap later? | 08:29 |
| switch10_ | Tiven: make sure they are being mounted a s read/write as well | 08:29 |
| ShazbotMcNasty | there can be 4 primary partitions on a disk right? | 08:29 |
| TyanColte | how do i automount a ntfs drive when i start my computer on karmic | 08:29 |
| ShazbotMcNasty | and a swap needs to be a primary? | 08:29 |
| Tiven | how can i do that switch10_ ? | 08:29 |
| llutz | ShazbotMcNasty: yes, yes, no | 08:29 |
| ShazbotMcNasty | llutz, swap can be logical? | 08:29 |
| psycho_oreos | ShazbotMcNasty, four primary but no extended, you can have 3 primary and one extended. | 08:29 |
| ravenkhan | WebDawg: what you saying to me by impossible? | 08:29 |
| llutz | ShazbotMcNasty: sure | 08:29 |
| switch10_ | Tiven: are you using sudo mount -a? or this is at start up? | 08:29 |
| TyanColte | at startup | 08:30 |
| jaymz | Sup fellas | 08:30 |
| shey | I find it hard there is no application that can do that, Especially since it would be an awesome thing to do being as I run 8 machines in my house, all linux, and most of the time they are all being used by SOMEONE at some point, would be funny to just display a message... | 08:30 |
| TyanColte | whoops, wrong person | 08:30 |
| WebDawg | ravenkhan, what are you talking about? Stop repeating. | 08:30 |
| findsndcard | !welcome | jaymz | 08:30 |
| ubottu | jaymz: 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! | 08:30 |
| switch10_ | Tiven: its in the man pages somewhere... man mount | 08:30 |
| WebDawg | You want to enable effects when you know where to enable them and how to do it? | 08:30 |
| WebDawg | ravenkhan, be more specific. | 08:30 |
| psycho_oreos | TyanColte, I don't know of the GUI method, but you can always manually add entries into /etc/fstab | 08:30 |
| Dr_Willis | TyanColte: add a Proper fstab entry for the device. | 08:30 |
| switch10_ | Tiven: mount -w | 08:30 |
| jaymz | alright thx ubottu | 08:30 |
| Tiven | its at startup like TyanColte said switch10_ , im trying again with finnix to change the order now | 08:30 |
| Dr_Willis | example -> UUID=6A62B9CC1192CB2D/media/VistaBootntfs-3gdefaults,locale=en_US.UTF-800 | 08:30 |
| Dr_Willis | grr.. i got tabs instead of spaces :) | 08:31 |
| ravenkhan | WebDawg: I know how to enable and where i can find the tabs Mr.WebDawg. | 08:31 |
| findsndcard | anyone know how to locate the /dev for my sound card (/dev/dsp and /dev/snd are not them) | 08:31 |
| WebDawg | Dude. | 08:31 |
| TyanColte | Dr_Willis: i have no idea how to do that | 08:31 |
| Dr_Willis | example -> UUID=6A62B9CC1192CB2D /media/VistaBoot ntfs-3g defaults,locale=en_US.UTF-8 0 0 | 08:31 |
| ravenkhan | WebDawg: but i am not understanding you what you trying to teach me | 08:31 |
| WebDawg | You just said. How do I enable effects under 'appearance' | 08:31 |
| Dr_Willis | TyanColte: the ntfs-3g homepage has details.. and its just a text file. | 08:31 |
| Dr_Willis | TyanColte: or install/run the ntfs-config tool | 08:31 |
| Dr_Willis | !ntfs-3g | 08:31 |
| ubottu | ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions | 08:31 |
| TyanColte | i've tried the ntfs-config tool | 08:32 |
| TyanColte | i already have read/write access | 08:32 |
| ravenkhan | WebDawg: I meant from that when i go there and click it said effects cant be enabled Did you get me now? | 08:32 |
| Ryan1 | shey: env DISPLAY=:0 notify-send test | 08:32 |
| jaymz | Guys, i just installed itunes with wine. I was wondering if i can let the itunes read the music files from my windows partition? | 08:32 |
| WebDawg | ravenkhan, then when you ask a question you have to say that. | 08:32 |
| Dr_Willis | TyanColte: i think under 10.04 the tool now adds a entry to the fstavb if yoyu run it. :) not sure if it did that on the old releases | 08:32 |
| WebDawg | What was the message. | 08:32 |
| ravenkhan | WebDawg: I earlier also specified tahat thing | 08:32 |
| WebDawg | Opps. | 08:33 |
| findsndcard | !itunes | jaymz | 08:33 |
| ubottu | jaymz: itunes is not available on Linux, but there are many audio player alternatives (see !players). For Daap clients (sharing music with other iTunes clients on the network), install banshee | 08:33 |
| jaymz | But I already installed it with wine. | 08:33 |
| ravenkhan | WebDawg: could u please write against my name so that i can get to know you talking me or anybody else | 08:34 |
| WebDawg | Generally im as confusing as the person im talking to ravenkhan | 08:34 |
| Tiven | llutz switch10_ what about swap ? it goes before or after var ? | 08:34 |
| findsndcard | anyone know how to locate the /dev for my sound card (/dev/dsp and /dev/snd are not them) | 08:34 |
| llutz | Tiven: doesn't matter | 08:34 |
| ravenkhan | WebDawg: if you dont know answer then dont make my time waste with you | 08:35 |
| Tiven | ok | 08:35 |
| Ryan1 | findsndcard: /dev/audio? | 08:35 |
| WebDawg | What is time but something to waste ravenkhan | 08:35 |
| xonxoubu | ey hola! | 08:35 |
| findsndcard | Ryan1: thanks, but audio is not listed in /dev | 08:35 |
| ravenkhan | WebDawg: for you maybe | 08:36 |
| findsndcard | !es | xonxoubu | 08:36 |
| ubottu | xonxoubu: En la mayoría de canales de Ubuntu se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español o charlar entra en el canal #ubuntu-es. Escribe "/join #ubuntu-es" (sin comillas) y dale a enter. | 08:36 |
| WebDawg | See. I win. | 08:36 |
| Ryan1 | findsndcard: It is for me | 08:36 |
| xonxoubu | ostia! jajajaja | 08:36 |
| xonxoubu | ubottu, thanks | 08:36 |
| ubottu | You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-) | 08:36 |
| findsndcard | Ryan1: its not for me, are you using pulseaudio? | 08:36 |
| xonxoubu | ;) | 08:36 |
| ravenkhan | WebDawg: but i am not as free like you to make somebody elses time waste | 08:36 |
| dima-linux | somehow my ubuntu is freezing sometime....-.- i was just using firefox | 08:36 |
| Ryan1 | findsndcard: No idea | 08:36 |
| WebDawg | ravenkhan, If I where you I would ask the question: What do I have to get working to get the effects under the gnome appearance tab to enable? | 08:37 |
| xonxoubu | albertolempira, hi! | 08:37 |
| Tiven | switch10_ llutz i keep getting errors about 'mount point /var/lock does not exist ' | 08:37 |
| dima-linux | then i can't even reboot | 08:37 |

| ravenkhan | Can anybody please tell me how can i enable the effects under appearance tab | 08:38 |

| albertolempira | xonxoubu hey | 08:39 |
| IP-v6 | screen flicker even compiz disabled | 08:39 |
| linux_is_my_hero | WebDawg: he needs to have the right proprietary drivers for his video card. | 08:39 |
| Dr_Willis | TyanColte: a line similer to the one i pasted wuth the PROPER UUID entry | 08:39 |
| Dr_Willis | example -> UUID=6A62B9CC1192CB2D /media/VistaBoot ntfs-3g defaults,locale=en_US.UTF-8 0 0 | 08:39 |
| ravenkhan | IP-v6 : did it work counter strike? | 08:39 |
| WebDawg | That does not make sense? Does he need GLX or DRI linux_is_my_hero ? | 08:39 |
| ravenkhan | I am using ubuntu 9.1 | 08:39 |
| WebDawg | I mean I have the ATI linux generic and I can enable them. | 08:39 |
| IP-v6 | raven_, it work with software render mod not in opengl or d3df | 08:40 |
| IP-v6 | d3d* | 08:40 |
| TyanColte | if that's not the correct line then i don't know what to put that will be correct for my system | 08:40 |
| linux_is_my_hero | ravenkhan: go to system-->admin-->hardware drivers | 08:40 |
| IP-v6 | ravenkhan, it work with software render mod not in opengl or d3df | 08:40 |
| Dr_Willis | !uuid | TyanColte | 08:40 |
| ubottu | TyanColte: To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell: « sudo blkid » (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID) | 08:40 |
| ravenkhan | linux_is_my_gero : ok | 08:40 |
| ravenkhan | now? | 08:40 |
| findsndcard | anyone know how to locate the /dev for my sound card (/dev/dsp and /dev/snd are not them) | 08:41 |
| Dr_Willis | TyanColte: you replace the UUID=XXXXXXX with the ones that sudo blkid comman mentions | 08:41 |
| Tiven | switch10_ http://pastebin.com/i5Y4ZbGq | 08:41 |

Anybody know what could be happening? thanks in advance. I'm using kubuntu karmic, i don't if it matters. | 08:41 |
| linux_is_my_hero | ravenkhan: once you have the right ATI drivers, you should be able enable advance appearance effects...thats what i had to do to get mine to work. | 08:41 |
| ravenkhan | WebDawg: I am sorry for my behaviour | 08:42 |
| ravenkhan | linux_is_my_hero: dude there is no driver except MODEM | 08:42 |
| TyanColte | Dr_Willis: i assume where you have /media/VistaBoot is the mountpoint? | 08:43 |
| Dr_Willis | TyanColte: mounting basics.. yes. | 08:43 |
| ravenkhan | linux_is_my_hero: only software modem i have there | 08:43 |
| Dr_Willis | !mount | TyanColte | 08:43 |
| ubottu | TyanColte: mount is used to attach devices to directories. See also https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mount | 08:43 |
| linux_is_my_hero | you mught try a ubuntu update first to make sure it has all the necessary files, then reopen the hardware drivers panel | 08:43 |
| TyanColte | Dr_Willis: i know how to mount manually, i just don't know how to automount | 08:43 |

| Nefariouz | Is there someone that can help me with a wireless problem? | 08:45 |
| llutz | Tiven: did you really set fs_passno to $ ? | 08:45 |
| ravenkhan | linux_is_my_hero: ubuntu update means 10.04 version? | 08:45 |
| linux_is_my_hero | no, its just that when i installed from my 9.10 livecd, it couldnt find the right drivers until i went on the internet and did a ubuntu update...not to 10.04 but just to update all the system packages and such...THEN it found the drivers and i enabled advanced visual effects. | 08:45 |
| Pumpkin | I will give it 5 hours, then just format if it doesn't work. | 08:45 |
| Tiven | llutz $ is there because terminal window doesnt have space | 08:45 |
| linux_is_my_hero | ;-) | 08:45 |

| Pumpkin | findsndcard: Yeah I know, but I googled it and there are heaps of horror stories about nothing happining after 60 hours =/ besides I used clonezille to backup everything so it's not total loss if I stop it. | 08:47 |
| Nefariouz | Well on my 10.04 live cd, the hardware device manager detects my broadcom card, installs the driver and i can browse. | 08:47 |
| TyanColte | Dr_Willis: "UUID=6866C5F466C5C354 "/media/Windows 7 Drive" ntfs-3g" without the "" will that work? | 08:47 |
| Dr_Willis | TyanColte: You dont want to use spaces in the mountpoint. | 08:47 |
| Nefariouz | My problem is that when I installed 10.04 and went to the hardware devices to install my wireless card, it doesn't show any | 08:47 |
| Dr_Willis | TyanColte: that wont work. | 08:47 |
| Tiven | yes llutz, | 08:47 |
| * LMP dropkicks windows 7 | 08:47 | |

| Dr_Willis | TyanColte and you need the 0 0 at the end also | 08:48 |

| Dr_Willis | spaces in mount poinyts is a pain in the backside.. why are you even bothering TyanColte you can set it to be Windows_7 just as easially | 08:51 |
| TyanColte | so Windows\040\7\040\Drive | 08:51 |
| findsndcard | can someone help me please find my sound card in the /dev (my /dev http://paste.ubuntu.com/422092/ )? | 08:51 |
| TyanColte | Dr_Willis: looks gauty | 08:51 |
| llutz | Tiven: try to identify the process writing to /var/lock before all the mounts are done. | 08:51 |
| Dr_Willis | spaces look silly and can goof up things worse TyanColte | 08:51 |
| Dr_Willis | expecially from the terminal | 08:52 |
| Tiven | what do you mean llutz ? | 08:52 |
| ShazbotMcNasty | I really want "universal typeface" | 08:52 |
| ShazbotMcNasty | I can't findit though :< | 08:52 |
| ShazbotMcNasty | or anything comparible | 08:52 |
| Nefariouz | I think the problem is that the hardware devices can't get the list of devices without being online first even though 9.04 could. | 08:52 |
| llutz | Tiven: the error you get, means that some process tries to write to /var/lock which isnt mounted at that moment. | 08:53 |
| TyanColte | restarting to test this out | 08:53 |
| cretsiah | findsndcard: sory i should probably have been more specific i want to push ubuntu desktop through openssh session so i can view it on my winxp box | 08:53 |
| findsndcard | Nefariouz: it should still detect them if they are both using the same kernel version the same; you can try sudo iwconfig eth1 list to scan for wireless networks and sudo iwconfig eth1 essid "WifiNetwork" && sudo dhclient eth1 to connect and grab an ip | 08:53 |
| Ryan1 | cretsiah: You can use VNCviewer for WIndows to connect to an Ubuntu machine and control its desktop | 08:54 |
| findsndcard | cretsiah: the whole session or just a program, like firefox? | 08:54 |
| cretsiah | the whole desktop | 08:54 |
| Ryan1 | cretsiah: You need to enable it first in Preferences > Remote Desktop | 08:54 |
| llutz | Tiven: forget it, i'm wrong. | 08:54 |
| Tiven | hmmm | 08:54 |
| Tiven | ;/ | 08:54 |
| Tiven | any other ideas guys? | 08:55 |
| Nefariouz | alright. the 'sudo iwconfig eth1 list' failed to show a list though | 08:55 |
| jbrouhard | Do this | 08:55 |
| findsndcard | Nefariouz: im sorry, its late here, i meant sudo iwlist eth1 scan | 08:55 |
| jbrouhard | yeah | 08:56 |
| jbrouhard | that | 08:56 |
| Nefariouz | ah thanks | 08:56 |
| jbrouhard | iwlist ethx scanning | 08:56 |
| jbrouhard | x being which eth interface | 08:56 |
| jbrouhard | sudo iwlist eth1 scanning | 08:56 |
| jbrouhard | worked for me | 08:56 |

| TyanColte | do you have to have a special package to add splashimage to grub2? | 08:57 |
| Nefariouz | findsndcard: this is true. Any luck with your sound card? | 08:57 |
| findsndcard | Nefariouz: its not a big problem, but i would like to use more programs, but /dev/dsp and /dev/snd aren't working with any audio apps | 08:58 |
| Nefariouz | findsndcard: Ah I see. well good luck! | 08:58 |
| findsndcard | Nefariouz: in addition, pulse audio takes over the sound control, so a few apps will work, like audacity, thanks | 08:58 |

| Name141 | is it possible to change where your updates come from? (the repos) | 08:59 |
| findsndcard | Name141: sure, its in System -> Administration -> Synaptic -> Tools -> Repos | 08:59 |
| Name141 | findsndcard: that's the easiest way is with the GUI? | 09:00 |
| findsndcard | Name141: ok, you could sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list, ctrl+alt+F2, sign-in, w3m google.com ... | 09:00 |
| Name141 | ehh | 09:01 |
| Name141 | I'll just turn the monitor on | 09:01 |
| Name141 | and login then | 09:01 |
| findsndcard | Name141: logging in is a good idea before doing anything on your system | 09:01 |
| Name141 | findsndcard: I was logged in over ssh | 09:03 |
| findsndcard | Name141: oh, then through a new ssh, but you need to sudo apt-get update after you change the sources.list | 09:04 |

| findsndcard | Name141: sudo synaptic in terminal should pull it up | 09:05 |
| Name141 | findsndcard: settings -> repos? | 09:05 |
| findsndcard | Name141: assuming you have the -X (GUI) flag set with your SSH session | 09:05 |
| findsndcard | Name141: yeah, its under Tools -> repos or Settings -> repos | 09:05 |
| Name141 | findsndcard: I just clicked "select best server" | 09:06 |
| Name141 | findsndcard: I assume that'll be ok? | 09:06 |
| findsndcard | Name141: i usually do that as well, it pings them all to find the best one | 09:06 |
| Name141 | my current one was getting updates at 8 KB/sec | 09:06 |
| findsndcard | Name141: yeah, this should fix that problem | 09:07 |
| findsndcard | Name141: there is also an experiemental package that does updates through bittorrent | 09:07 |
| Name141 | findsndcard: nothing suitable was found, maybe it's due to the high sat ping? | 09:07 |
| Name141 | er latency | 09:08 |
| findsndcard | Name141: you might want to check out apt-p2p which does the updates through bittorrent, assuming your isp doesn't throttle speeds | 09:08 |
| findsndcard | Name141: or you could pick a repo nearest to you | 09:08 |
| Name141 | findsndcard: i can't use eMule/bitorrent with my HN7000S | 09:08 |

| nsadmin | if the people don't know that, maybe you're taking the wrong class? | 09:19 |

| cast | AgentHeX: ahh, hmm, hg revert might do something | 09:32 |
| knittl | clean install is not really a problem. i just want to make sure that any files will work after that | 09:32 |
| hunahpu | knittl: most of your personal configurations will be kept, including your e-mails | 09:32 |
| cast | AgentHeX: i'd do the revert | 09:32 |
| nsadmin | having said that, I did an upgrade from libc4 to libc5 (which was a.our format to elf format) | 09:32 |
| cast | AgentHeX: i keep backups, though :) | 09:32 |
| knittl | i.e. some binary files depending on pointer size and alignment | 09:32 |
| nsadmin | way wayyy long time ago | 09:32 |
| AgentHeX | cast: sweet. worked. | 09:32 |
| AgentHeX | cast: says "forgetting <filename" a bunch of times. | 09:33 |

| BobSapp | !lucid | 09:33 |
| ubottu | 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 | 09:33 |
| cast | there's hg forget, too, mmm | 09:33 |
| nsadmin | bottom line, it should be possible, but it was never considered necessary or worth the work | 09:33 |
| === 92AAAAV4J is now known as khoubeib | ||
| almoxarife | ubuntunewbie: thought about upgrading? | 09:33 |
| knittl | what if the xserver memleak cannot be fixed till 30th? ubuntu 10.05? :D | 09:34 |
| AgentHeX | cast: so it said forgetting but never forgot. i just ran hg init again, and all is well. | 09:34 |
| ubuntunewbie | almoxarife : maybe lucid but i dont know how to back up all of the application installed | 09:34 |
| Dr_Willis | knittl: according to the news sites.. its been fixed. | 09:34 |
| llutz | knittl: nope, broken 10.04 with xxx fixes in future | 09:34 |
| knittl | Dr_Willis: oh … i only read about it right now | 09:34 |
| Dr_Willis | knittl: you need the rssfeeds->bellybutton attatchment. :) | 09:34 |
| almoxarife | ubuntunewbie: backup? they would be upgraded also where a upgrade is avail | 09:35 |
| SirRedTooth | Does anybody here have avg free? | 09:35 |
| SirRedTooth | I installed it but cant find the launcher fo rit | 09:35 |
| Dr_Willis | http://www.webupd8.org/2010/04/xorg-memory-leak-bug-in-ubuntu-1004-fix.html | 09:35 |
| Dr_Willis | SirRedTooth: try the command line? avg<tab> perhaps? | 09:35 |
| hunahpu | SirRedTooth: looking for ##windows perhaps :p | 09:35 |
| SirRedTooth | I installed the linux version | 09:35 |
| nsadmin | what's avg | 09:36 |
| ubuntunewbie | almoxarife : I asked before here , most of them told me upgrading from 8.04 to 10.04 will have tons of error | 09:36 |
| almoxarife | ubuntunewbie: not sure you want to go to lucid yet | 09:36 |
| Dr_Willis | AVG Anti Virus. they got a free linux version | 09:36 |
| Dr_Willis | and a live cd I recall | 09:36 |
| ubuntunewbie | almoxarife : only solution is cleaninstall | 09:36 |
| llutz | SirRedTooth: dpkg -L packagename | 09:36 |
| almoxarife | ubuntunewbie: upgrade to karmic? | 09:36 |
| hunahpu | SirRedTooth: in your terminal: "whereis avg<TAB>" | 09:37 |
| SirRedTooth | Is there some technical reason why there is no launcher or is it just like that? | 09:37 |
| ubuntunewbie | almoxarife : what's the different between karmic and lucid ? | 09:37 |
| AgentHeX | cast: so the tutorial i'm reading says to use cgi scripts as the web interface for mercurial. is there a better way? i have no idea what i'm doing now. | 09:37 |
| hunahpu | SirRedTooth: depends on how you installed it, if you installed it via software centre or synaptic it should be listed under Apps menu | 09:37 |
| pha11ic | something broken in ubuntu that isnt brokenin debian, am I in the right channel? | 09:37 |
| almoxarife | ubuntunewbie: karmic is stable, lucid is not, yet anyway | 09:38 |
| AgentHeX | cast: there are example docs in /usr/share/doc/mercurial/examples/ but i'm not sure what to copy where. | 09:38 |
| cast | AgentHeX: just start hg serve in the directory | 09:38 |
| hunahpu | pha11ic: what do you mean? | 09:38 |
| cast | AgentHeX: check hg help serve and see the port option, too | 09:38 |
| pha11ic | It appears to be video related... | 09:38 |
| pha11ic | had problem with XConfig some months back got a default config in place, seemed to work... | 09:39 |
| pha11ic | the other day it rolled a buttload of updates and now display goes blank and nothing happens... | 09:39 |
| SirRedTooth | Still cant find the launcher? | 09:39 |
| SirRedTooth | Can anybody just tell me where their launcher is? | 09:39 |
| ubuntunewbie | almoxarife : I though it going to release next week | 09:40 |
| pha11ic | ubuntu9.04 and xubuntu9.04 freezes, as does MINT v8. | 09:40 |
| pha11ic | CentOS works okay, as does Deb 5.04 | 09:40 |
| Dr_Willis | SirRedTooth: it could be the mens havent refreshed.. log out/back in and look in the menus again | 09:40 |
| hunahpu | SirRedTooth: an anti-virus in Ubuntu is not useful so most of us don't use it, so I can't tell you where it installed; I suppose is under /usr/bin as most programs are | 09:40 |
| llutz | ubuntunewbie: release dates won't tell you anything about stability | 09:40 |
| almoxarife | ubuntunewbie: perhaps, but if I was going to upgrade I would do it to karmic, if I was problem free I would continue to lucid, that's just my opinion | 09:41 |
| SirRedTooth | I should contact avg and ask them to put the launcher somewhere we can see it... | 09:41 |
| jayc | hi, all, I write a partition labeled "data" in /etc/fstab to auto mount on boot, but when I open autilus, it present two "data" entries on sidebar. How do I let nautilus know that I've mounted "data" on /etc/fstab? | 09:41 |
| Dr_Willis | SirRedTooth: according to the package manager the binaries are in /opt/avg/bin/XXXXX | 09:41 |
| Dr_Willis | SirRedTooth: they may ask you to read the docs.. | 09:41 |
| AgentHeX | cast: alright, so if i want to restrict mercurial to authenticated users (and specifically over https), how do i do that? | 09:42 |
| Dr_Willis | SirRedTooth: im not even sure it has an actual 'gui' | 09:42 |
| cast | AgentHeX: check the mercurial docs for the hgrc file, i think | 09:42 |
| ubuntunewbie | almoxarife , llutz : so it's not stable as it be ? I though it LTS which is 100% stable for user ? | 09:43 |
| llutz | ubuntunewbie: not yet, maybe next week (i doubt that) | 09:44 |
| overmind | ubuntunewbie: I am using Lucid right now I haven't got any problem, but if you aren't very sure about what to do, wait a week | 09:44 |

| AgentHeX | cast: when i commit, it pops nano up with some temporary file. when i quit nano, it says rollback completed. wtf? | 09:45 |
| cast | did you save and quit? | 09:46 |
| ubuntunewbie | yeh , I know that , will wait for it to be stable. | 09:46 |
| almoxarife | ubuntunewbie: I upgraded to lucid about the time it came out, there were issues, there may be more issues, I deal with them, you may want to do the same, but, if you want to upgrade to a solid version then karmic makes sense, otherwise do as you please, worse case scenario??? a re-install | 09:46 |
| chris_ | @llutz: ok, sorry | 09:46 |
| AgentHeX | the temp file? no and yes (in that order). doesn't make a diff. | 09:46 |

| Dr_Willis | strings_: thats not very easially done.. sadly. | 09:47 |
| AgentHeX | cast: file is /tmp/hg-editor-Onzrby.txt where should i save it? | 09:47 |
| cast | just to its default place | 09:48 |
| cast | save, quit | 09:48 |
| hunahpu | strings_: fresh minimal-install | 09:48 |
| almoxarife | ubuntunewbie: it should, I run win7 in vm and have ran ubuntu in vm without any issues | 09:48 |
| AgentHeX | cast: transaction abort! rollback completed. wtf? | 09:48 |
| AgentHeX | cast: says No username found, using 'user@domain.com' instead. | 09:48 |
| AgentHeX | cast: i have a .hgrc file. what do i need to do? | 09:49 |
| nameless | hi to all | 09:49 |

| almoxarife | ubuntunewbie: I use virtualbox(ose) and true, the vm is slightly slower, not much, did you give it enough virtual ram? | 09:51 |
| nameless | ok thx | 09:51 |
| ubuntunewbie | almoxarife : yep 768mb , but install at a same hard disk. | 09:51 |

| rajmahendra | i like to remove only KED | 09:53 |

| Mathuin | http://packages.ubuntu.com/lucid/predict -- I can't find this package with the Synaptic package manager, but it's listed here. I'm afraid I don't understand the clever little names like lucid and karmic but I do know I'm running karmic and the package is under lucid. Does that mean I can't run it? | 09:55 |
| ubuntunewbie | almoxarife : oh , what processor you are using ? I am using AMD.Is it because Vbox favor more on Intel processor than AMD ? | 09:55 |
| Dr_Willis | Mathuin: there might be PPA repos of the program for karmic. or you could upgrade to Lucid. | 09:55 |
| Mathuin | So lucid is 10.04? I can probably wait until its official release. | 09:56 |
| AgentHeX | cast: crap. there's just no useful step-by-step. it keeps aborting. | 09:56 |
| nameless | i have a problem with my sis graphics card driver i just want to have the resolution i need pls help me. | 09:56 |
| Dr_Willis | Mathuin: yep. Or upgrade to it now and try it out. then upgrade to the final when it comes out | 09:56 |
| almoxarife | ubuntunewbie: not sure about vbox favoring, I have a laptop with amd and it works about the same as far as I can tell | 09:57 |
| Dr_Willis | nameless: i have no magical answers for you no matter how much you say please. SIS video is VERY problematic. | 09:57 |

| AgentHeX | cast: dude, mercurial is at 1.5.1. why in the hell is apt-get showing such an old version? | 10:32 |
| Traveler | whats mercurial? | 10:32 |
| AgentHeX | Traveler: revision control system. like svn. | 10:32 |
| brianherman_home | Traveler, it is a python based source code management software used by Ubuntu. | 10:33 |
| starplex | llutz: i suppose it could be install with other software, this egroupware? | 10:33 |
| brianherman_home | Traveler: It is slower than git but not by much. | 10:33 |
| supintu | ciao | 10:33 |
| jfb_h2o | brianherman_home, is git python based? | 10:33 |
| Traveler | ok | 10:33 |
| llutz | starplex: yes, try "aptitude why egroupware-core" | 10:33 |
| overmind | AgentHeX: Because Canonical doesn't add new versions with normal updates, just patches, new programms versions are added updating ubuntu's version. Anyways you can (if is avaiable) mercurial's official repo | 10:34 |
| jfb_h2o | brianherman_home, is mercurial distributed like git? | 10:34 |

| CloudLevi | Har har, Iceroot. Piece of junk won't take half the programs I throw at it, I'm TRYING to follow this wonderful little guide and now...wellllllllll the guide has apparently installed things WRONG and in such a way that they keep me from being -able- to REinstall them | 11:42 |
| iceroot | CloudLevi: ok, supported ended for me | 11:43 |
| CloudLevi | iceroot: What? | 11:43 |
| acicula | CloudLevi: calm down, formulate a question, what have you done, what are you trying to do etc | 11:43 |
| CloudLevi | acicula: Calm is impossible for me right now...I'll pretend though. | 11:44 |
| tatsel | CloudLevi: Then I suggest you to take a walk outside and come back asking when you will be calmed down | 11:44 |
| CloudLevi | acicula: http://www.thehelper.net/forums/showthread.php?t=147567 That...right there. Followed that guide...had to improvise and figure things out myself a LOT (I absolutely despise arrogant idiots who think we ALL know how to pogram Linux) | 11:44 |
| IdleOne | CloudLevi: your attitude in here will determine the type of support you get :) We get that you are frustrated but that is not going to get you anywhere. | 11:45 |

| acicula | CloudLevi: ah you are trying two things | 11:46 |
| CloudLevi | idleone: There is NO way I am using another worthless guide!!! | 11:46 |
| acicula | CloudLevi: well not everything on the internet is true you know and not all guides apply to your case | 11:46 |
| IdleOne | CloudLevi: ok so you don't want to use the official ubuntu guide but you will take advice from total random strangers ina chatroom? | 11:46 |
| CloudLevi | idleone: I have yet to find a single guide I can remember where I didn't have to search and search and search for clues and bits and pieces of answers here and there. | 11:46 |
| IdleOne | CloudLevi: I suggest you take the advice of the users in here and calm down. | 11:47 |
| CloudLevi | Idleone: Can you PROMISE me it'll work without telling me there are missing files? | 11:47 |
| IdleOne | CloudLevi: I can't promise that because I have no clue if you will follow the guide | 11:47 |
| linxeh | CloudLevi: if you pay me my daily rate I'll write you a guide that works without telling you there are missing files. | 11:48 |
| IdleOne | CloudLevi: Stop YELLING at me | 11:48 |
| linxeh | CloudLevi: most of the guides you are following are written by people in their spare time, because they want to try and help others. not because they are paid. you are getting stuff for free - I'm sure you can use google and your brain to help fill in bits that person might have missed - they dont have access to teams of testers like big companies. | 11:48 |
| hiexpo | or they they sell those little kiddy laptops | 11:49 |
| dugger5688 | Although if you participate in the community you can help everyone have access to more data. | 11:49 |
| linxeh | CloudLevi: and taking out your frustration on the VOLUNTEERS in here for mistakes in guides (or just changes in the commercial product since the guides were written) they didnt write is not fair. | 11:49 |
| zombie_soldier | cloud levi im a fellow first time user, ive been at this a week and im now just starting to get the hang of it, most reports of wine are that its not user friendly and that initial success rate was 0 just take a deep breath and calm down | 11:50 |
| CloudLevi | linxeh: Like I said, the stupid thing has me so bound up now that for some -strange- reason the commands won't go in again... two or three of the commands keep telling me either there are files missing (that weren't before) or that the folder exists and has stuff in it (I was told this wouldn't happen....) | 11:50 |
| linxeh | WINE is an incredible feat of software engineering. | 11:50 |
| brianherman_home | linxeh: and the biggest hack ever | 11:50 |
| moetunes | !wine | 11:50 |

| linxeh | brianherman_home: yep; its still an amazing feat | 11:50 |
| brianherman_home | linxeh:! winebottler is great for | 11:51 |
| brianherman_home | package management | 11:51 |
| CloudLevi | Zombie_soldier: uber understatement of the millenium that it isn't user friendly x_X | 11:51 |
| brianherman_home | no i am not dissing it that was a complement | 11:51 |
| linxeh | brianherman_home: indeed it is | 11:51 |
| linxeh | CloudLevi: it isnt meant to be user friendly! | 11:51 |
| zombie_soldier | how does everyone send those red messages | 11:51 |
| Krasus | hey anyone have problem now in updating 10.04 ? | 11:51 |
| elie-m | I was using wine just 5 min ago to try an configure world of warcraft to run on ubuntu | 11:51 |
| brianherman_home | i <3 Hacks like that how else would I test my website under mac os x and still be in mac os x | 11:51 |
| red2kic | zombie_soldier: Using your nickname in the message. | 11:51 |
| hiexpo | zombie_soldier, those are directed messages | 11:51 |
| linxeh | CloudLevi: buy cedega or crossover if you want it to be user friendly. it was hard enough getting WINE implemented, let alone figure out a sensible user interface for it | 11:51 |
| CloudLevi | linxeh: I know...it's made for programmers and - in general - people who know what they're doing... | 11:52 |
| brianherman_home | i mean internet exploder 8 | 11:52 |
| linxeh | no, it isnt! | 11:52 |
| elie-m | but it keeps on crashing me after I log in | 11:52 |
| brianherman_home | !winebottler | 11:52 |
| tatsel | fail | 11:52 |
| zombie_soldier | cloud levi when do those messages about missing files appear? | 11:52 |
| linxeh | CloudLevi: run windows games on Windows, bottomline, or be prepared to hack. You should see if your game is supported in Cedega though | 11:52 |
| acicula | CloudLevi: its called a programmers os, its not an os for just programmers, but try to avoid building your programs from source | 11:52 |
| brianherman_home | Cloudlevi: You will learn a lot though which is really good for getting jobs. | 11:53 |
| elie-m | I wont keep windows just for 1 game -.- | 11:53 |
| acicula | CloudLevi: afaik cedega or the supplied wine binaries should work with warcraft? also on winehq you can find instructions and pointers for running programs with wine | 11:53 |
| dugger5688 | Why not just do a 'rm -fr ~/.wine' , followed by a 'sudo apt-get remove --purge wine' and start over. | 11:53 |
| brianherman_home | dugger5688: +1 | 11:53 |
| tatsel | To get uptimal compatibility for your Gaming experience while not willing to buy cedega, you can try PlayForLinux | 11:54 |
| tatsel | Playonlinux* | 11:54 |
| hiexpo | anything worth doing is not gonna be easyy be patient and allow your brain to learn don't expect people to hold your hand | 11:54 |
| dugger5688 | It's useful, but even more of a hack | 11:54 |
| elie-m | I did run it.. and updated the graphics to the latest. it works fine on 1 char but on the other it does a critical error. but I'm happy enough it works | 11:54 |
| linxeh | acicula: he's trying starcraft II beta I think ? | 11:54 |
| tatsel | Which is a more user~-friendly interface and a set of scripts that configures Wine almost for you | 11:54 |
| brianherman_home | Is there a way to force quit gdm. | 11:54 |
| brianherman_home | ? | 11:54 |
| acicula | brianherman_home: service stop gdm | 11:54 |
| acicula | err | 11:55 |
| acicula | service gdm stop | 11:55 |
| brianherman_home | No from GDM i cant get a console | 11:55 |
| Tulimaq | elie-m: did u disable shadows ? | 11:55 |
| red2kic | brianherman_home: Go to TTY1-7, "sudo service gdm stop" | 11:55 |
| hiexpo | killall gdm | 11:55 |
| tatsel | brianherman_home: Zap keys? | 11:55 |
| tatsel | oh, yes, killall, but it's a bit heavy | 11:55 |
| acicula | brianherman_home: you can select a console, but it will kill the x server wich causes the x server to respan and puts you back at gdm | 11:55 |
| acicula | tl;dr just switch to a real tty | 11:55 |
| brianherman_home | I cant select a console | 11:55 |
| red2kic | !tty | brianherman_home | 11:55 |
| ubottu | brianherman_home: To get to the TTY terminals 1-6, use the keystroke ctrl + alt + F1-F6 respectively (Alt+F7 will get you back to your graphical login). To change the resolution for your TTY, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ChangeTTYResolution. | 11:55 |
| tatsel | brianherman_home: press ALT+CTRL + F2 | 11:56 |
| acicula | well you dont want to either :P, just use ctrl-alt-F1 | 11:56 |
| tatsel | yeah, F1, F2 Whatever | 11:56 |
| linxeh | CloudLevi: at the end of the day, your games werent designed to run on Linux. The fact that some clever people have tried to re-implement windows for Linux is a bonus - but they did this in their spare time mainly. have some respect please. | 11:56 |
| brianherman_home | I am in a virtual machine for some reason my mouse works but not my keyboard | 11:56 |
| montitofe | Bonjour | 11:56 |
| elie-m | are the latest intel graphics drivers included in the final release of lucid? | 11:56 |
| prov | I installed the alpha of ubuntu 10.04 and when I reinstalled makehuman to use in blender 3d the .deb now says "Error: Dependency is not satisfiable: python2.5" I tried to install python2.5 from source and all went well, ./configure, make, make altinstall with no errors. But I return to gdebi and the same error is reported. | 11:56 |
| acicula | elie-m: you mean for i{ownage}? yeah i believe so | 11:56 |
| zombie_soldier | cloudlevi welcome back | 11:56 |

| CloudLevi | Thanks... *twitches as he watches the uninstall bar for Tremulous fill* | 11:57 |
| elie-m | lol | 11:57 |
| tatsel | oh, there even is a command :o | 11:57 |
| acicula | prov: ubuntu+1, and dependencies are not fixed by make install from source | 11:57 |
| CloudLevi | oh, no...wait..it's done...YAY!!! | 11:57 |
| montitofe | hello tatsel nd hello everybody | 11:57 |
| prov | acicula: What can I do? | 11:57 |
| elie-m | I noticed the latest drivers are 9-4-2010 on their website, but on forums they said to ask here abt it | 11:57 |
| montitofe | thanks for the french channel :) | 11:57 |
| hiexpo | lol | 11:57 |
| CloudLevi | -Every- time I boot up Tremulous, it kills me...every single time...'cause I can't Alt-Tab out and the quit command freezes it =D | 11:57 |
| acicula | prov: install the deb package via de package manager that provides the dependency | 11:57 |
| IdleOne | CloudLevi: are you also running compiz at the same time? | 11:58 |
| elie-m | but seriously, some1 has to find a freakin solution to the annoying PARTIAL UPDATE | 11:58 |
| CloudLevi | idleone: Huh? Compiz? | 11:58 |
| IdleOne | CloudLevi: ok guess not :) | 11:58 |
| acicula | prov: which probably requires you to remove the stuff you installed via make install first | 11:58 |
| BlueEagle | cloudlevi: You know, "desktop effects" | 11:58 |
| CloudLevi | ...Probably | 11:58 |
| elie-m | compiz is not running fine with me | 11:58 |
| elie-m | on ubuntu | 11:58 |
| BlueEagle | cloudlevi: Does your windows look pretty when you move and open them and stuff? | 11:59 |
| prov | acicula: What do you mean, "via de package manager that provides the dependency?" | 11:59 |
| elie-m | I'm trying hard with it, but it just wont work | 11:59 |
| elie-m | I get multiple warnings | 11:59 |
| CloudLevi | BlueEagle: Like zooming and transparency? Yeah | 11:59 |
| === yukiseaside is now known as wing1 | ||
| Kream | Hi all. apologies if this is OT but is rails installed when I install ubuntu's ruby1.8 package ? | 12:00 |
| === wing1 is now known as _wing | ||
| BlueEagle | cloudlevi: Well, that uses quite a bit of resources and is known to not play nice with Wine all the time. | 12:00 |
| CloudLevi | BlueEagle: It's not a problem...I didn't like the game anyway. Dumb of me to have downloaded it after getting Linux =/ | 12:00 |
| acicula | prov: ubuntu uses the deb format and a package manager to provide programs, so if you miss a dependency you need to install it via a deb, ie via apt-get/aptittude(same thing) or via add/remove programs(GUI). JUst make install on source will provide the program but not solve the missing dependencies in the package manager | 12:00 |
| acicula | !deb | 12:00 |
| ubottu | deb is the Debian package format, also used by Ubuntu. To install .deb files, simply double-click (in Ubuntu) or click (in Kubuntu) on them to start the GDebi utility. | 12:00 |
| Vhozard | BlueEagle Yeah, windows look pretty | 12:00 |
| === _wing is now known as yukiseaside | ||
| IdleOne | CloudLevi: try disabling the desktop effects in System > Appearances menu then run tremulous to see if it improves | 12:00 |
| CloudLevi | BlueEagle: Eh? Oh...no...the Tremulous problem is totally separate. That was Trem for Linux...crashed me...and the StarCraft thing...the installer just plain doesn't -RESPOND- >< | 12:00 |
| BlueEagle | cloudlevi: Not as dumb as pissing off the people in here whom you may need to depend upon for help later, but that's another story. | 12:00 |
| prov | acicula: Is it safe to add a repository in an updated ubuntu to an outdated python (I have 2.6)? Are there deb repositories for python 2X? | 12:01 |
| hiexpo | you don't bite the hand that feeds you | 12:01 |
| brianherman_home | Does virtual box work better than vmware? | 12:01 |
| prov | acicula: Will it remove 2.6? | 12:01 |
| acicula | prov: apt-cache search is your friend, ubuntu ships with 2.5,2.6 and 3.1,3.2 binaries i think | 12:01 |
| lalalol | !ca | 12:01 |
| ubottu | Canadian Ubuntu users can be found in #ubuntu-ca | 12:02 |
| * tatsel has no idea about Vbox <=> Vmware | 12:02 | |
| brianherman_home | !virtualbox | 12:02 |
| ubottu | virtualbox is a x86 !virtualizer. A !free edition is available from the package 'virtualbox-ose'. A non-free edition is available at http://virtualbox.org for most Ubuntu releases (help in #vbox) - Setup details at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox | 12:02 |
| Vhozard | CloudLevi you can run ¨metacity --replace¨ if you run compiz, to make it faster | 12:02 |
| Vhozard | Vbox and Vmware are the same | 12:02 |
| acicula | prov: no if packages are numbered, ie python2.5, python2.6, python3.0 etc they can be installed side by side | 12:02 |
| Q_Continuum | Why is Rythmbox ripping audio CDs so slowly now? Where can I check what speed its ripping at? (9.10) | 12:02 |
| CloudLevi | Vhozard: Speed isn't the issue... It just won't start... | 12:03 |
| acicula | prov: obviously only one points to /usr/bin/python, but you can probably set a default via update-alternatives | 12:03 |
| elie-m | rythmbox in my opinion sux | 12:03 |
| CloudLevi | Vhozard: It zombies the instant I load it up | 12:03 |
| Vhozard | CloudLevi What error(s) does it give? | 12:03 |
| acicula | elie-m: file suggestions on how to improve it ;) | 12:03 |
| elie-m | ubuntu must find a replacement | 12:03 |
| zombie_soldier | elie-m what audio player do you use | 12:03 |
| BlueEagle | q_continuum: What is different in your system now from when it was ripping faster? | 12:03 |
| prov | acicula: If ubuntu 10.04 ships with python 2.5 then why do I need to do this? | 12:03 |
| acicula | elie-m: launchpad, blueprints, forums are probably good places to bring such issues up | 12:04 |
| prov | acicula: Why does gdebi complain? | 12:04 |
| acicula | prov: why do you need what | 12:04 |
| prov | acicula: Python 2.5 for makehuman. | 12:04 |
| acicula | prov: gdebi complains because you did not install a dependency | 12:04 |
| WXZ | ubuntu can't connect to my internet after I ran update manager, how do I fix this? | 12:04 |
| prov | acicula: I have Python 2.6 and it wants 2.5. | 12:04 |
| acicula | WXZ: did you update to lucid beta? | 12:04 |
| acicula | prov: apt-get install python2.5 ? | 12:05 |
| elie-m | zombie_soldier i use VLC and Songbird | 12:05 |
| WXZ | I just ran update manager and installed all the packages | 12:05 |
| tatsel | O.O | 12:05 |
| WXZ | so I'm not sure if yes or no | 12:05 |

| zombie_soldier | elie-m do either of those have a descent visualization, movie player and rythem box have them but both are buggy as hell on my system | 12:06 |
| elie-m | VLC is the best at playing anything | 12:06 |

| Beyecixramd | elie-m: i prefer Totem with the appropiate codecs instead of VLC, VLC is Qt, Totem is GTK, so Totem is better for GNOME | 12:08 |
| elie-m | but honestly I dont think anything from mozilla will drop support for linux | 12:08 |
| acicula | prov: seems it is obsoleted, anyway lucid support is in #ubuntu+1, furtherore it does appear to be dropped from lucid, but you can probably get away with fetchin the karmic debs and installing those instead. but best continue in #ubuntu+1 | 12:09 |
| tatsel | at..? | 12:09 |
| fuzzy | well when i maximise a window it doesnt maximize all the way, its like theres a panel there but there doesnt seem to be | 12:09 |
| tatsel | poh, nevermind, scrolldown failure | 12:09 |
| hiexpo | mozilla was built for linux its not going anywhere | 12:09 |
| Beyecixramd | elie-they did with Songbird... | 12:09 |
| Consul_Falx | Friction[laptop]: your vhost didn't applied on login | 12:09 |
| Beyecixramd | elie-m: btw, what a bloated piece of software (songbird) | 12:09 |
| Consul_Falx | apply | 12:09 |
| acicula | prov: also try updating to the latest rc instead, as the alpha is pretty dated by know(and broken probably) | 12:09 |
| elie-m | well maybe.. I use vlc more | 12:10 |
| elie-m | but songbird is alongside vlc so meh | 12:10 |
| prov | acicula: Thank you for your help. I will take that advice. Bye. | 12:10 |
| elie-m | there's alwayz plenty of software to use :P | 12:11 |
| Vhozard | songbird = no more linux support | 12:11 |
| WXZ | the internet seems to be working right now | 12:11 |
| Q_Continuum | BlueEagle, nothing. Some updates to 9.10 - ripping a pile of CDs today they're taking forever | 12:11 |
| WXZ | but that doesn't mean a lot, this has happened before | 12:11 |
| Beyecixramd | elie-m: if you want an iTunes-like interface, try out aTunes, uses Java, but it's pretty cool, and skinnable... | 12:11 |
| hiexpo | amzing whata reboot can do | 12:11 |
| Q_Continuum | BlueEagle, as in like 35+ minutes on a CoreDuo laptop while plugged in | 12:11 |
| elie-m | what I care about is making world of warcraft run 90% on linux and I would be happy | 12:11 |
| Beyecixramd | elie-m: WoW is platinum on Wine... | 12:12 |
| elie-m | define platinum | 12:12 |
| acicula | awesomeness without compiling and codeedtting | 12:12 |
| Beyecixramd | elie-m: basically, what acicula says. Runs at more than 90% of its Windows performance on Linux. You only need to run it in OpenGL mode | 12:13 |
| elie-m | i did that | 12:13 |
| mopperwhite | My teacher asked me to write something about life. | 12:13 |
| elie-m | today I updated the graphics drivers from intel, so I could run world of warcraft and it ran with opengl | 12:13 |
| elie-m | but it crashes me on 1 char | 12:14 |
| Beyecixramd | elie-m: witha decent video card and the appropiate drivers in Linux, it should run perfectly, i saw that | 12:14 |
| elie-m | and works fine on the other | 12:14 |
| mopperwhite | I am getting nervous. | 12:14 |
| acicula | elie-m: other? | 12:14 |
| visof | where is .bashrc for root user ? | 12:14 |
| bazhang | mopperwhite, that's offtopic for here | 12:14 |

| acicula | ah | 12:15 |
| fuzzy | can you help me? When i maximise a window it doesnt maximize all the way, its like theres a panel there but there doesnt seem to be. | 12:15 |
| CloudLevi | idleone: Looks like I have to downgrade Wine =_=;;;; | 12:15 |
| CloudLevi | idleone: Or- | 12:15 |
| * tatsel needs to talk to ubottu's coder about that | function | 12:15 | |
| airtonix | elie, i doubt you'll have much fun without a dedicated graphics card | 12:15 |
| Beyecixramd | elie-m: what's the problem then? Blizzard spends a lot of developers in making WoW work in Linux (at least with Wine) | 12:15 |
| acicula | idunno, intel stuff is kind of useless still, nvidia/ati drivers are much better in that respect | 12:15 |
| visof | i can't use su in ubuntu | 12:15 |
| acicula | re supportin opengl and all that good stuff | 12:15 |
| airtonix | Beyecixramd, no they actually dont. | 12:15 |
| tatsel | visof: use sudo | 12:15 |
| elie-m | blizzard isnt doing anything for linux | 12:15 |
| Beyecixramd | airtonix: yep, Blizzard, Codeweavers, Canonical, Red Hat, Novell, | 12:16 |
| tatsel | elie-m: at least WoW works | 12:16 |
| zombie_soldier | elie-m can you get visualizations for vlc | 12:16 |
| Beyecixramd | airtonix: and let's not forget ID Software | 12:16 |
| elie-m | acicula: I agree but with the new intel drivers (as of 30-3-2010) wow can work decently on linux | 12:16 |
| tatsel | so Starcraft and Diablo does | 12:16 |
| airtonix | Beyecixramd, no really they do nothing for linux. show me proof. | 12:16 |
| elie-m | but I cant know why it crashes on the other | 12:16 |
| acicula | elie-m: different effects used maybe? | 12:17 |
| tatsel | elie-m try installing them from PlayOnLinux | 12:17 |
| acicula | elie-m: you can run wine in debug mode to find out | 12:17 |
| Beyecixramd | airtonix: they all contribute to Wine and 3D accelerated games | 12:17 |
| visof | can i know the changes that occured in some files? | 12:17 |
| airtonix | Beyecixramd, proof ? | 12:17 |
| elie-m | acicula: how to | 12:17 |
| CloudLevi | tatsel: ??? | 12:17 |
| visof | hist ? | 12:17 |
| tatsel | elie-m: and remember to turn compiz off when using Wine. | 12:17 |
| Beyecixramd | airtonix: can't give you proof, search on the Internerdz | 12:17 |
| elie-m | beyecixramd: blizzard doesnt | 12:17 |
| acicula | elie-m: --debug +stuff, man wine ;) | 12:17 |
| tatsel | clarkb: ? | 12:17 |
| tatsel | ergh | 12:17 |
| airtonix | Beyecixramd, then they dont. | 12:17 |
| tatsel | Sorry clark | 12:17 |
| tatsel | CloudLevi: hm? | 12:18 |
| CloudLevi | tatsel: Play On Linux??? | 12:18 |
| elie-m | tatsel: compiz doesnt even work. it gives me many warnings | 12:18 |
| tatsel | CloudLevi: yes. < | 12:18 |
| tatsel | elie-m: O.O | 12:18 |
| CloudLevi | tatsel: I don't suppose I'd be able to do something about SC2 with that | 12:18 |
| Beyecixramd | elie-m: there you have it, either your card or your drivers suck. Compiz should work perfectly since it's a native linux program | 12:19 |
| tatsel | CloudLevi: Beta is Beta | 12:19 |
| elie-m | yea.. I dont like that, because I like compiz.. I can't resolve the warnings. I googled much about the issues | 12:19 |
| CloudLevi | tatsel: ...What about it? >>; | 12:19 |
| airtonix | elie-m, without a dedicated graphics card that has decent gpu with its own 'fast' ram, you won't be able to do much in wow if you can't even get compiz running. | 12:19 |
| CloudLevi | tatsel: I have the beta installer. | 12:19 |
| tatsel | CloudLevi: besides, Linux is a Comunity, it takes time for such kind of support to be added | 12:19 |
| CloudLevi | tatsel: Wha...? | 12:19 |
| elie-m | airtonix: I have intel graphics card up to 1759 MB | 12:19 |
| cretsiah | im trying to use xrdp on ubuntu so i can use windows rdesktop but all i get is a blackscreen | 12:20 |
| tatsel | CloudLevi: and since this is the beta, first, I must admit I am jaleous :D | 12:20 |
| airtonix | elie-m, ie: with an nvidia 8800gt, i can raid wow sarth 3d while using compiz. | 12:20 |
| CloudLevi | tatsel: I don't even know what Play On Linux is... ><;;; also I'm not -IN- the beta. x_X; I just have the program... | 12:20 |
| airtonix | elie-m, no a graphics card with ITS OWN ram. not shared from system. | 12:20 |
| tatsel | CloudLevi: second: You will have better luck with the final game. | 12:20 |
| elie-m | airtonix: I understood u, but it has enough ram to work :S | 12:20 |
| airtonix | elie, not on linux it doesnt | 12:21 |
| CloudLevi | tatsel: I'll have more luck on Windows =-=;;; *stores the installer away, flips off Wine, and goes about his business* | 12:21 |
| elie-m | airtonic: really?! doesnt it take from the RAM space | 12:21 |
| elie-m | airtonix: really?! doesnt it take from the RAM space | 12:21 |
| Vhozard | CloudLevi what are trying to play? sc2? | 12:21 |
| Beyecixramd | elie-m: the RAM doesn't matter, what matters most is the engine of the graphics card. There's no profit on having up to 8 Gb of RAM in the gfx card if it doesn't do 3D accel (for example) | 12:21 |
| tatsel | CloudLevi: but as I saud earlier, PlayOnLinux is a more user-friendly interface to Wine, and it configures wine to works a lot easier | 12:21 |
| airtonix | elie-m, on my setup with 4gb of system ram and the nvidia 8800gt with 512mb of its own ram i still only got around 32fps during raids. | 12:21 |
| CloudLevi | tatsel: Ubuntu is cool and all but really...this machine isn't even WORTH the frustrati- What is it a patch or something? | 12:22 |
| elie-m | hmmm | 12:22 |
| Salva1 | Does Ubuntu 9.10 uses an I686 Kernel by default? | 12:22 |
| CloudLevi | vhozard: Yeah... | 12:22 |
| airtonix | elie-m, and thats with a core2duo e6550 | 12:22 |
| CloudLevi | Vhozard: It zombies every time I boot the installer EXE | 12:22 |
| Salva1 | I am refering to the 32-bit version.- | 12:22 |

| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 12:22 |
| airtonix | elie-m, so if you really dont want to buy new hardware, just use windows for wow. | 12:22 |
| tatsel | !wiki Playonlinyx | 12:22 |
| elie-m | the thing is that it is awesome on windows.. I thought it would be the same on ubuntu | 12:22 |
| CloudLevi | Vhozard: SURE it boots up but it zombies the second it -does- DX | 12:22 |
| tatsel | ._. | 12:22 |
| Beyecixramd | no Salva1, Ubuntu will be using a i386 kernel for a long time... | 12:22 |
| Vhozard | CloudLevi installed wine from winHQ repos? | 12:22 |

| IdleOne | tatsel: there is no !wiki module | 12:23 |
| tatsel | Oh | 12:23 |
| airtonix | elie-m, thing is you're not using the same graphics backend and you're not using the same gpu driver. | 12:23 |

| tatsel | I see | 12:23 |
| elie-m | airtonix I left windows for wow, but I'm trying real hard to end the dependency on it | 12:23 |
| Vhozard | CloudLevi sorry, wrong link: http://www.winehq.org/download/deb | 12:23 |
| visof | can i show modification for the files ? | 12:24 |
| Salva1 | Will the amd64 one will be more fast than the I686? | 12:24 |
| airtonix | elie-m, then play aion. | 12:24 |
| skiwithpete | hi | 12:24 |
| elie-m | I dont want anything to do with windows :P | 12:24 |
| CloudLevi | Vhozard: What was -that-? | 12:24 |
| tatsel | CloudLevi: http://playonlinux.com | 12:24 |
| airtonix | elie-m, in any case you'r not going to have much fun with your current setup. | 12:24 |
| elie-m | yeah | 12:24 |
| skiwithpete | I've installed 10.04RC. Can someone help me setup my mic | 12:24 |
| Vhozard | CloudLevi Check the 2nd link :D first link is from another msn conversation :o | 12:24 |
| acicula | Salva1: faster no,better yes | 12:24 |
| acicula | skiwithpete: see topic, #ubuntu+1 | 12:24 |
| Salva1 | What do You mean by better? | 12:25 |
| CloudLevi | Vhozard: and what was it? o_O | 12:25 |
| aar | Hi, is it possible to ask grep to get the output AFTER an expression (without including the expression itself). I want to get the PDF title (using extract) but I don't want the expression "title:" in front of it. | 12:25 |
| tatsel | IdleOne: Do you know who is ubottu's coder? | 12:25 |
| Vhozard | CloudLevi An old 3dmark06 test of mine | 12:25 |
| CloudLevi | elie-m: Neither do I but Ubuntu is just so FRUSTRATING DX | 12:25 |
| CloudLevi | Vhozard: Interesting o-o | 12:25 |
| acicula | Salva1: better security, bigger numbers, its all a bit technical, but it wont make (most) stuff go faster | 12:25 |
| skiwithpete | thanks acicula | 12:25 |
| elie-m | Checking for Xgl: not present. | 12:25 |
| elie-m | xset q doesn't reveal the location of the log file. Using fallback /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 12:25 |
| elie-m | that's what I get among others when I start compiz | 12:26 |

| Vhozard | CloudLevi Cant you dualboot win 7? | 12:27 |
| Salva1 | Also; Why does Ubuntu does not use an I686 kernel? | 12:27 |
| Salva1 | Even Debian uses it? | 12:27 |
| Salva1 | . | 12:27 |
| geekphreak | hello all | 12:27 |
| elie-m | dualbooting win7 and ubuntu is pretty easy | 12:27 |
| elie-m | and decent | 12:27 |
| acicula | Salva1: eh? | 12:27 |
| acicula | Salva1: oh you mean the 32bit kernel says i386 or something? | 12:27 |
| CloudLevi | Vhozard: Can't get Win7...at least not in any reasonable timeframe. I had it, uninstalled it thinking it was ruined and unrecoverable, aaand now I am without an ISO or optical... | 12:28 |
| hiexpo | ------> geekphreak - morning | 12:28 |
| IdleOne | tatsel: I am not sure sorry | 12:28 |
| CloudLevi | Vhozard: And the ISO torrent I used the first time is dead | 12:28 |
| Beyecixramd | elie-m: what joke of OS is Win7? | 12:28 |
| geekphreak | hiexpo: howdy | 12:28 |
| IdleOne | !bot > tatsel | 12:28 |
| ubottu | tatsel, please see my private message | 12:28 |
| CloudLevi | Vhozard: That and my comp is pathetic... I just need a new one is all | 12:28 |
| geekphreak | IdleOne: howdy :) | 12:28 |
| acicula | Salva1: oh like so, if you use a 64bit os that implies a 64bit kernel, i686 is a 32bit standard | 12:29 |
| elie-m | beyecixramd: every windows is a joke, but windows 7 is pretty much safe to say, is ery good | 12:29 |
| elie-m | very* | 12:29 |
| tatsel | IdleOne: :P thanks, but I am not looking for usage, but looking for the coder him/herself to have a little chat :D | 12:29 |
| Beyecixramd | elie-m: from what i've seen, Windows 7 is exactly like Vista, but with a fatter taskbar (btw, Windows 7 it's Nt 6.1, and Windows Vista is NT 6.0, soo...) | 12:29 |
| Salva1 | Why does use the I386 instead of the I686? | 12:30 |
| elie-m | beyecixramd yes I noticed the versions | 12:30 |
| hiexpo | ya a virus | 12:30 |
| elie-m | beyecixramd: but no it's not like vist | 12:30 |
| acicula | Salva1: it does and it doesnt, modern kernels select the optium code path for an architecture | 12:30 |
| Beyecixramd | elie-m: sure it's like Vista... | 12:30 |
| elie-m | it's actually a LOT better.. no | 12:30 |
| acicula | Salva1: so an i386 will still use i686 code on an i686 capable proc, but also run on an i386 | 12:30 |
| elie-m | I used vista for 2 years and I can assure u it's not vista | 12:31 |
| acicula | Salva1: reversely a i686 kernerl will not work on an i386 | 12:31 |
| === z is now known as Guest44885 | ||
| Vhozard | Beyecixramd Ehh, no, win 7 is NOT exactly vista | 12:31 |
| elie-m | it has better polished graphics with stolen effects from gnome gnu and it's very faster | 12:31 |
| tatsel | !ot elie-m Beyecixramd | 12:31 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 12:31 |
| Salva1 | Thanks for clarifying that. | 12:31 |
| Beyecixramd | Vhozard: of course it's not *exactly* for god's sake, if it was exactly like Vista, Windows 7 won't be called 7, but Vista... | 12:31 |
| Vhozard | Beyecixramd Win 7 > vista | 12:31 |
| tatsel | !ot | elie-m Beyecixramd | 12:31 |
| ubottu | elie-m Beyecixramd: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 12:31 |
| tatsel | but yes, Seven > vista | 12:32 |
| Beyecixramd | lol Vhozard.... Linux > *windows* | 12:32 |
| Vhozard | Beyecixramd You said: 7 is vista, but with different taskbar | 12:32 |
| Vhozard | ehh, no | 12:32 |
| elie-m | vhazard: no | 12:32 |
| tatsel | Linux > Seven > V | 12:32 |
| elie-m | vhozard* | 12:32 |
| Vhozard | Windows > Mac > Linux > BSD/unix | 12:32 |
| Beyecixramd | Vhozard: and animated bootscreen, and some new sound themes and not much else | 12:32 |
| CloudLevi | Beyecixramd: He's right... Win7 is incompatible with certain Vista drivers...like my CD-rom and certain other pieces of my computer *sigh*... And yeah...Linux is... ... ...I have no idea... they're all horrible | 12:32 |
| elie-m | bye for now cya all later | 12:32 |
| acicula | can we stick to support questions and take the os discussion supremity to offtopic? | 12:32 |
| CloudLevi | Vhozard: I'm inclined to agree with you... | 12:32 |
| Beyecixramd | acicula: yes, better | 12:33 |
| linduxed | i was in the middle of a "sudo aptitude safe-upgrade" but got hit by a battery shutdown | 12:33 |
| tatsel | !win | 12:33 |
| CloudLevi | lol... | 12:33 |
| tatsel | meh | 12:33 |
| tatsel | Missing | 12:33 |
| ActionParsnip | clear | 12:33 |
| ActionParsnip | yo yo yo | 12:33 |
| linduxed | so now ive got a kernel that i get kernel panic from in grub | 12:33 |
| Vhozard | If Linux gets decent new hardware support, games, elite application support: Linux >> Windows | 12:33 |
| tatsel | linduxed: :ouch: | 12:33 |
| linduxed | tatsel: yupp | 12:33 |
| acicula | linduxed: boot a livecd and chroot into your ubuntu and resume/restart the apt-get upgrade | 12:34 |
| linduxed | i've reverted to a kernel in grub | 12:34 |
| ActionParsnip | Vhozard: some developers deleop for linux now, hardware support i down to the hardware manufacturers, nvidia have supported linux for ages | 12:34 |
| linduxed | so i can get in without a problem | 12:34 |
| hiexpo | remove thatbad kernak and redo | 12:34 |
| acicula | oh then just restart the uprade from there then? this time on ac ;) | 12:34 |
| Vhozard | ActionParsnip Whats your point? | 12:34 |
| ActionParsnip | Vhozard: it's already started happening, people just had their head in the windows sand too long | 12:35 |
| CloudLevi | ActionParsnip: Aaaand Sony not so much...*stomps his laptop, then stabs it with his sword* | 12:35 |
| tatsel | linduxed: they should add it: "Please plug in the sector adaptor if you are using a laptop computer or wait untill you can. Your battery may sudently be depleted due to intense CPU effort" | 12:35 |
| aar | Hi, I'm trying to extract a PDF title using the command "extract", but I don't want the word "title:" in front of it. How do I complete this: extract file.pdf | grep ... | 12:35 |
| Vhozard | ActionParsnip Ofcourse its STARTED happening, but it isnt far enough | 12:35 |
| acicula | tatsel: it does say that when using te gui | 12:35 |
| ActionParsnip | Vhozard: look at ID software dude, doom source has been around ages | 12:35 |
| unop | aar, grep -v "title:" | 12:35 |
| tatsel | acicula: \o/ | 12:36 |
| ActionParsnip | Vhozard: that sort of junk | 12:36 |
| Vhozard | ActionParsnip So? | 12:36 |
| Vhozard | ActionParsnip Not most major gaming businesses | 12:36 |
| linduxed | tatsel: well this was more of a true battery failure, it's apparently quite unreliable | 12:36 |
| ActionParsnip | Vhozard: doom3 has a native installer, I'd say ID was a major gaming business | 12:36 |
| Vhozard | ActionParsnip I said MOST | 12:36 |
| mede | hi, anyone knows how to work a scanner hp3670 | 12:37 |
| CloudLevi | Vhozard: ... ...Well your link worked >> | 12:37 |
| hiexpo | !hp | 12:37 |
| Vhozard | mede Install a program called: xsane | 12:37 |

| mede | yes | 12:37 |
| mede | scanjet 3670 | 12:37 |
| tatsel | linduxed: You knew that before? | 12:37 |
| aar | unop, thanks, how do I tell grep to select the line that starts with "title -" but not include the expression "title -" in the output? | 12:37 |
| Vhozard | CloudLevi lol, it worked? | 12:37 |
| CloudLevi | Vhozard: Without a living hell worth of insanity swarming around configuring and patching Wine, I have now managed to get SC2 up... | 12:37 |
| linduxed | tatsel: unfortunately not, not my laptop really | 12:38 |
| mede | I found on xsane and nothing | 12:38 |
| Vhozard | cool | 12:38 |

| ActionParsnip | mede: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/2564 | 12:38 |
| unop | aar, grep wouldn't be able to do that - sed or awk could. sed 's/title -//' | 12:38 |
| tatsel | linduxed: D'oh to the guy who hasn't specified | 12:38 |
| CloudLevi | nope... | 12:38 |
| hiexpo | hplip | 12:38 |
| Vhozard | mede Open Gnome-Terminal and type ¨sudo apt-get install xsane¨ | 12:38 |

| ActionParsnip | mede: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-hardware-18/linux-driver-for-hp-scanjet-3670-a-699555/ | 12:39 |
| aar | unop, this seems to work fine: extract file.pdf | grep title | sed 's/title -//' Might be a bit long-winded, but does the trick. Thanks! | 12:40 |
| mede | ok thanks I'll try | 12:40 |
| joebike | On ubuntu/apache, getting a 403 error trying access localhost, error.log shows "Directory index forbidden by Options directive:" that points to the root of one of the sites i have as a virtual host, I removed it to see if it fixed, but then the error log just moves on to another site in the virtual hosts. It had been working, then rebooted apache and started getting 403s | 12:40 |
| unop | aar, sed -n '/title - /s/title - //p' | 12:41 |
| unop | aar, and then you can skip the grep part | 12:41 |
| aar | unop, much more elegant. Thanks! :) | 12:42 |

| samphippen|lapto | ok | 12:48 |
| Vhozard | lubse Open synaptic en zoek naar: openoffice | 12:48 |
| manohar | greekphreak: evolution gives error "cannot refresh folder" while fetching email | 12:48 |
| Vhozard | lubse In die lijst staat wel ergens dutch | 12:48 |
| geekphreak | manohar: using imap ? | 12:49 |
| Vhozard | lubse Je kan ook zoeken naar ¨aspell¨ en dan de nederlandse versie installeren | 12:49 |
| manohar | greekphreak: yes using imap to fetch gmail | 12:49 |
| jfb_h2o | can I use a dpkg set-selections output file on a 32bit machine to install packages on a 64bit machine? | 12:49 |
| ActionParsnip | jfb_h2o: absolutely | 12:49 |
| geekphreak | manohar: make sure in gmail imap is enabled and port settings are ok ssl enabled :) | 12:49 |
| jfb_h2o | ActionParsnip, thanks! | 12:49 |
| unop | !clone | jfb_h2o | 12:49 |
| ubottu | jfb_h2o: To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type « aptitude --display-format '%p' search '?installed!?automatic' > ~/my-packages », move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type « sudo xargs aptitude --schedule-only install < my-packages ; sudo aptitude install » - See also !automate | 12:49 |
| manohar | geekphreak: where should be ssl enabled? | 12:50 |
| manohar | in gmail? | 12:50 |
| tatsel | O.O | 12:50 |
| unop | jfb_h2o, you have to careful using dpkg --set-selections -- package names can be truncated if they are too long | 12:50 |
| tatsel | That kind of things can be done O.O | 12:50 |
| jfb_h2o | unop, are you a bot? | 12:50 |
| unop | jfb_h2o, negative. | 12:50 |
| geekphreak | manohar: no, when you login to gmail using firefox , goto setting enable imap there first , then in evolution , enable ssl for imap gmail server | 12:51 |
| jfb_h2o | unop, what is !close | 12:51 |
| ActionParsnip | manohar: http://tuxicity.wordpress.com/2007/03/08/howto-set-up-gmail-in-evolution-gnomes-mail-client-and-organizer/ | 12:51 |
| jfb_h2o | oops, clone | 12:51 |
| tatsel | a command to show you how to clone your current system | 12:51 |
| unop | jfb_h2o, clone* -- as in, take a list of packages that are installed on one machine and install the same set on another | 12:51 |
| manohar | geekphreak: i hav ssl enabled in evolution | 12:51 |
| geekphreak | manohar: is imap enabled in gmail? | 12:52 |
| lubse | Vhozard: synaptic? | 12:52 |
| jfb_h2o | unop, I'll have to investigate... so the suggestion of the bot is better than using dpkg? | 12:52 |
| jfb_h2o | !automate | 12:53 |

| CloudLevi1 | woohoo!!! | 12:53 |
| CloudLevi1 | ...wha? | 12:53 |
| manohar | geekphreak: yup i think so. checking again in case not done | 12:53 |
| CloudLevi1 | oh...^^; | 12:53 |
| === CloudLevi1 is now known as CloudLevi | ||
| geekphreak | ok | 12:53 |
| CloudLevi | AND Pidgin uses IRC commands =D | 12:53 |
| tatsel | Most of them* | 12:54 |
| unop | jfb_h2o, in our optinion - yes -- you can use dpkg for the same purpose but beware that it has some limitations | 12:54 |
| lubse | something like sudo aptitude install aspell-dutch ? | 12:54 |

| geekphreak | or that ! | 12:54 |
| * jfb_h2o is going to do some reading... | 12:54 | |
| Vhozard | myspell is possible too | 12:54 |
| lubse | Vhozard: aspell-dutch does not exist :P | 12:55 |
| ActionParsnip | !find dutch | 12:55 |
| ubottu | Found: texlive-lang-dutch, wdutch, idutch | 12:55 |
| Vhozard | lubse Ik zit niet op ubuntu nu, maar het is vast wel te vinden via synaptic | 12:55 |

| CloudLevi | but this font has to go... | 12:56 |
| Vhozard | CloudLevi wth? | 12:56 |
| h3X^ | after installing ubuntu 9.10 i get "no screens found" when starting xorg; but it works perfectly when running from the liveCD! is the config different there? any reason why setup shouldn't be able to autoconfigure it? | 12:56 |
| * lubse bows deeply to geekphreak | 12:57 | |
| lubse | thanks! | 12:57 |
| geekphreak | np | 12:57 |
| manohar | geekphreak: imap is enabled in gmail | 12:57 |
| CloudLevi | Vhozard: I'm installing StarCraft 2 and am now on Pidgin, which allows SMS, which will take a LOT of stress off my relationship with my fiancé. So I'm VERY happy now. =w= | 12:58 |
| geekphreak | manohar: do you have lot of email in your account, cause if so it might take time | 12:58 |
| ActionParsnip | h3X^: boot to recovery root console and run: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg then reboot | 12:58 |
| CloudLevi | And all the pretty colors *w* | 12:58 |
| Vhozard | CloudLevi haha, cool, man! | 12:58 |
| h3X^ | ActionParsnip, i'll try that | 12:58 |
| CloudLevi | Vhozard: Aye! <3 | 12:58 |
| h3X^ | just wish i could alt-tab between OS's | 12:58 |
| CloudLevi | Vhozard: Only problem I have is that it shows SMS users as online x_X which means I won't be able to tell when she's on/off Xbox ><;;; | 12:59 |
| manohar | geekphreak: it shows fetching messages and after 80% it gives error "cannot refresh folder" | 12:59 |
| === francisco is now known as pt_user | ||
| pt_user | anybody know about the state of glX? | 12:59 |
| pt_user | i have ap problem with my graphics card | 12:59 |
| h3X^ | where can i find the config file for grub btw? | 13:00 |
| hellyeah | hey | 13:00 |
| red2kic | CloudLevi: Wait... You can? Pidgin can add MSN and MSN is already incorporated into Xbox Live. You just need to add her email account that was registered to her Xbox Live. | 13:00 |
| hellyeah | i have 80 jpg file how can i unite these iage file into djvu format | 13:00 |
| red2kic | CloudLevi: I use that all times to send chat messages to my Xbox-inducted friends. | 13:00 |
| geekphreak | manohar: manohar so it is downloading emails just stops at 80, any ideas which files/folder it hangs on? | 13:01 |
| pt_user | @ hellyeah: there's a package "minidjvu" that converts pages in .tif to djvu | 13:01 |
| unop | hellyeah, depends on what you mean by unite | 13:01 |
| manohar | geekphreak: i searched this error in google and this was a bug | 13:01 |
| CloudLevi | red2kic: nonononono... it shows her as online because I have her phone number programmed in for SMS... | 13:01 |
| CloudLevi | red2kic: So if she's permanently online, I DOUBT I'll be getting alerts for her going on or off x_X; | 13:01 |
| geekphreak | manohar: i know of a bug in gmail, but it actually gave different error message, wana try something/ | 13:01 |
| manohar | geekphreak: oh problem solved i think | 13:01 |
| red2kic | CloudLevi: Right. It'll display online all times. There are no way of knowing if she's turning her phone off. :P | 13:02 |
| geekphreak | manohar: what was the issue | 13:02 |
| manohar | i limited the no. of messages in gmail to 1000 | 13:02 |
| manohar | so it fetched | 13:02 |
| CloudLevi | red2kic: MSN showed her as offline >< | 13:02 |
| geekphreak | manohar: i would try with pop :) | 13:02 |
| manohar | i think due to too much of messages it was unable to fetch | 13:02 |
| red2kic | CloudLevi: For cellphones or her Xbox? | 13:03 |
| manohar | geekphreak: wats difference b/w imap and pop? | 13:03 |
| manohar | which one is better? | 13:03 |
| geekphreak | manohar: but tell me something man, if you use imap for evolutiion why would you wana limit :), you would want all emails shown right? | 13:03 |
| red2kic | manohar: IMAP. | 13:03 |
| uLinux | Is there any application similar to Ventrilo, Skype etc for ubuntu? | 13:03 |
| pt_user | the driver in 10.04 is really slow, it's like 3D hardware acceleration is off | 13:03 |
| uLinux | IMAP is better | 13:03 |
| CloudLevi | red2kic: cell...only if she was logged into her email account would it show her as online...now it just shows her as on because of the number. I -REALLY- liked it the other way =/ | 13:04 |
| geekphreak | uLinux: matter of personal choice :p | 13:04 |
| uLinux | geekphreak ? | 13:04 |
| uLinux | just tell me one | 13:04 |
| IdleOne | uLinux: Ekiga | 13:04 |
| uLinux | i dont want to use wine | 13:04 |
| hellyeah | unop, i want to look one document instead of looking 80 images | 13:04 |
| uLinux | IdleOne tks | 13:04 |
| geekphreak | i do like pop :) | 13:04 |
| manohar | geekphreak: but limiting solved the problem | 13:04 |
| CloudLevi | Vhozard: any idea why this random, nameless, textless, meaningless error keeps popping up at the beginning of every SC2 update? o_O; | 13:04 |
| hellyeah | i want to convert jpg to djvu | 13:04 |
| unop | hellyeah, so you want each image one after another ? | 13:04 |
| red2kic | CloudLevi: I see. I don't know about MSN though. You can add her MSN account? | 13:04 |
| geekphreak | manohar: well as long as it works, it good nes , good luck | 13:04 |
| manohar | geekphreak: thanx | 13:05 |
| Vhozard | CloudLevi Dont play sc2, so I dont know :o | 13:05 |
| geekphreak | np | 13:05 |
| uLinux | oh IdleOne there is also mumble | 13:05 |
| uLinux | :) | 13:05 |
| manohar | red2kic: y is imap better? | 13:05 |
| IdleOne | uLinux: yes, that too | 13:05 |
| uLinux | it is | 13:05 |
| pt_user | hellyeah: http://minidjvu.sourceforge.net/ | 13:05 |
| CloudLevi | red2kic: I have her MSN account and SMS number tied together, that's the problem. | 13:05 |
| uLinux | manohar user imap | 13:05 |
| uLinux | use | 13:05 |
| red2kic | manohar: Because I say so. Its benefits greatly outweighs POP. | 13:06 |
| hellyeah | pt_user, you said it is for tiff ? | 13:06 |
| CloudLevi | red2kic: I suppose I can separate them, but that'd just be redundant... | 13:06 |
| hellyeah | i jhave jpg | 13:06 |
| IdleOne | uLinux: i forgot mumble because it hasn;t been working for me :/ | 13:06 |
| pt_user | hellyeah: you just need to convert jpg to tiff first | 13:06 |
| manohar | uLinux: y to use imap? | 13:06 |
| pt_user | but yes, it works | 13:06 |
| CloudLevi | red2kic: Maybe if she's online it'll remove the SMS symbol... | 13:06 |
| jfb_h2o | unop, do you have an opinion on the aptitude vs. debconf-set-selections method that the 'automating' web site references? | 13:06 |
| red2kic | manohar: I doubt it. However, I imagine you could group accounts (and aliases). | 13:06 |
| pt_user | i think imagemagick will do it fast enough | 13:07 |
| CloudLevi | red2kic: Yeah...it'll post her status and probably remove the icon...might add something for her display image, which is currently blank | 13:07 |
| uLinux | manohar http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=imap+vs+pop | 13:07 |
| manohar | red2kic: wat r the benefits? i had to limit my mails to 1000 | 13:07 |
| manohar | uLinux: ok i will google abt it | 13:07 |
| red2kic | manohar: See uLinux's search result. :) | 13:07 |
| manohar | red2kic: i did it before so used imap but i had to limit my mails. and geekphreak says y should we limit mails if we r using imap | 13:09 |
| geekphreak | manohar: choose what works best for you :d | 13:09 |
| red2kic | manohar: Why do you have to limit your mails? Just wondering. | 13:09 |
| red2kic | manohar: Preserve bandwidth. It's not like we're going to go through all old mails anytime soon. | 13:10 |
| uLinux | gmail @ thunderbird + imap works fine | 13:10 |

| uLinux | IdleOne Mumble Egika teamspeak ;) | 13:14 |

| hellyeah | but i paste the error i have to convert jpg file into djvu format | 13:14 |
| Curly_Q | The software creates DVDs as well. | 13:15 |

| agronholm_ | hi, is there any way to connect to a shared gnome session from a Windows box? | 13:16 |
| agronholm_ | I mean, I can connect via vnc but I'm not getting any display updates | 13:16 |
| Curly_Q | Geekphreak, have you tried any Linux stuff that sounds like what I am explaining? | 13:16 |
| acicula | agronholm_: how do you mean display updates | 13:16 |
| geekphreak | Curly_Q: no | 13:17 |
| agronholm_ | acicula, I have a still picture of the screen of how it was the moment I connected | 13:17 |
| pt_user | IdleOne: the gnome-shell desktop worked perfectly fine when i used 9.10, but in 10.04 it's extremely slow | 13:17 |
| agronholm_ | I can move the mouse around and it's reflected on the actual screen but not through the remote desktop | 13:17 |
| acicula | agronholm_: across what kind of network are you connecting | 13:17 |

| IdleOne | pt_user: ask in #ubuntu+1 they might have more advice | 13:20 |
| Curly_Q | Geekphreak, have you heard about RCN and the Class Action Law Suit against them because RCN blocked P2P traffic? | 13:20 |
| pt_user | IdleOne: will ask there, thanks | 13:20 |
| SwedeMike | tonibr: but basically if it's formatted, it's hard to get data back in any sensible and easy way | 13:20 |
| Curly_Q | A Judge ordered RCN to pay back money to their customers. | 13:20 |

| ubottu | Curly_Q: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 13:21 |
| agronholm_ | I'm using nvidia's proprietary display driver, could that be the cause? | 13:21 |
| acicula | agronholm_: its worth a try, cant really think of why it wont update in the first place, aside from a sluggish connection | 13:22 |
| Curly_Q | It is not Off Topic. Most of the problems that occur with port problems are due to IP blocking ports. Such as emails etc. | 13:22 |
| agronholm_ | acicula, a sluggish connection would mean slow updates | 13:22 |
| agronholm_ | but it's not updating at all | 13:22 |
| acicula | Curly_Q: take it to #networking, its offtopic here | 13:22 |
| acicula | agronholm_: yeh | 13:22 |
| agronholm_ | and the mouse moves very smoothly on the real screen when I move it on the vnc window | 13:22 |
| IdleOne | Curly_Q: it is offtopic because it is not ubuntu support related. please join #ubuntu-offtopic to discuss other topics | 13:22 |
| acicula | agronholm_: try a different viewer maybe? | 13:23 |
| agronholm_ | I could, although that hasn't helped in the past | 13:23 |
| acicula | g2g, dead battery | 13:23 |
| agronholm_ | anything you'd recommend? | 13:23 |
| agronholm_ | ah | 13:23 |

| ubottu | johndooe: The core of the Ubuntu Operating System is the Linux kernel: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel - You shouldn't have to compile your own, but if you're convinced you do, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile - See also: /msg ubottu stages | 13:31 |
| Dr_Willis | johndooe: i saw some tool to help install the latest kernel from source the other day.. but never tried it.. and theres PPA repos of newer kernels. | 13:31 |
| hutchit | i was wondering if anybody has any advice on how to deal with slow network and internet performance in Karmic | 13:32 |
| agronholm_ | ok, remote desktop works fine with the nouveau driver | 13:32 |
| hutchit | i've looked at forums and followed all advice found, but nothing has worked thus far | 13:33 |
| Curly_Q | \shade\ What are you working with with Ipv6? | 13:33 |
| hutchit | ipv4 only | 13:33 |
| SwedeMike | hutchit: fault find it, find out what the problem really is. is it dns? is it tcp? | 13:33 |
| hutchit | ipv6 is set to "ignore" in the Network Manager | 13:33 |
| auska | hi! | 13:33 |
| hutchit | i use OpenDNS with all my computers | 13:33 |
| hutchit | i have a windows PC (XP), a Mac laptop, and this ubuntu laptop | 13:34 |
| red2kic | Consider upgrading to T1 connection. | 13:34 |
| uLinux | IdleOne so i've installed Mumble but it's not the latest stable version (this also happens with other applications). How do I update it? | 13:34 |
| hutchit | and only the Ubuntu laptop has slow performance... with the only exception being that every internet speed test comes out 100% normal | 13:34 |
| === samphippen|lapto is now known as samphippen | ||
| \shade\ | Curly_Q: I'm using hurricane electric and it's telling me to add it via 'ipv6', however the command isn't found | 13:34 |
| hutchit | but when i use Update Manager, i get about one fifth of my download speed when nothing else is using bandwidth | 13:35 |
| auska | how can i resize a picture that i need to has as less as possible kb to upload it, by the console? | 13:35 |
| red2kic | hutchit: Dial-Up? | 13:35 |
| hutchit | no, i'm on ADSL 1.5Mbps down... and 500kbps up | 13:35 |
| uLinux | Guys, i installed Mumble but it's not the latest stable version (this also happens with other applications). How do I update it? | 13:36 |
| Dr_Willis | auska: the imagemagick package/tools can convert images from the console | 13:36 |
| Curly_Q | \shade\ I don't know the answer to what you are looking for, but I am sure you will like this URL: http://www.subnetonline.com/pages/subnet-calculators/ipv4-to-ipv6-converter.php | 13:36 |
| hutchit | i had Jaunty in this workstation before, and zero problems | 13:36 |
| _picAssO_ | auska: any reason why you use the console? | 13:36 |
| uLinux | Do i need to add some line to sources.list»? | 13:36 |
| hutchit | upgraded to Karmic (clean-install) and boom | 13:36 |
| hutchit | and i have same problem at a relative's laptop after installing Karmic | 13:36 |
| red2kic | auska: pngcrush or optipng | 13:36 |
| auska | because i need to resize 50 picutres and i doesn't want to do it one by one | 13:36 |
| alberto | ispano.org | 13:37 |
| Curly_Q | Auska, what you are describing is called: "Batch Files | 13:38 |
| red2kic | Because I have 50 cars and I don't want to sell it one by one. Unfortunately that does not work that way. :| | 13:39 |
| JayX | how can i securly shred the files in my ubuntu trash bin? | 13:39 |
| hutchit | @Curly_Q: thanks for that info URL... i'll look at it | 13:39 |
| red2kic | !trash | JayX | 13:39 |
| ubottu | JayX: The location of Trash has changed since 8.04, it is now located in ~/.local/share/Trash | Looking for the trash in previous versions: ~/.Trash | 13:39 |
| red2kic | JayX: You could try and shred the path. | 13:39 |
| Curly_Q | Hutchit, your welcome. | 13:39 |
| JayX | red2kic, how do I do that? I want to do a 35 pass secure shred! | 13:39 |
| JayX | gunman ** | 13:39 |
| Curly_Q | Greets to Dr Willis. :) | 13:39 |
| auska | Curly_Q, i was thinking in using a command like pngcrush *.jpg | 13:40 |
| red2kic | Jax: "man shred" will list endless options. | 13:40 |
| JayX | red2kic, oh..... i hate terminal :( im a GUI person :P | 13:40 |
| acicula | agronholm_: vncviewer perhaps? | 13:40 |
| red2kic | auska: If it's for websites, png works best. If it's high-quality photos, jpg is nice. | 13:40 |
| auska | aha its for websites ... | 13:41 |
| Curly_Q | Auska, I use a similar program in Windows called: IrfanView It does more than you could ever want. If you dual boot, try giving it a whirl. It is a free software. | 13:41 |
| red2kic | auska: You can convert or mogrify images. Might even shave down couple of kbs. | 13:41 |
| red2kic | Then optimize/crunch the images. | 13:42 |
| acicula | JayX: why do you need such a type of erase, unless you are hiding state secrets or hiding from overwriting the free disk space a few times makes conventil file recovery already pretty hard. that said there are some secure erase tools for *unix(google secure erase ubuuntu) | 13:42 |
| Dr_Willis | irfanview = a must have on windows. :) | 13:42 |
| linxeh | irfanview != free | 13:42 |
| red2kic | JayX: http://linux.about.com/library/cmd/blcmdl1_shred.htm (MANUAL IN GNU BROWSER) | 13:42 |
| linxeh | and it is only "free as in beer" for restricted uses | 13:43 |
| Dr_Willis | so what... | 13:43 |
| linxeh | Curly_Q said it was free | 13:43 |
| red2kic | Adobe Flash Plugin is free too. :) | 13:44 |
| Dr_Willis | and your definition of 'free' differs.. | 13:44 |
| JayX | acicula, :D well i want to sell my HDD in a few months, .. but when im ready to sell i will also do a simple 3pass DBAN (Derick Boot nd Nuke) | 13:44 |
| Dr_Willis | so what.. its 'freeware' | 13:44 |
| Dr_Willis | and OT i imagine. | 13:44 |
| Dr_Willis | and it does work in Wine. :) | 13:44 |
| linxeh | and typically people creating websites to sell cars are doing it commercially, which means it isnt "free as in beer" for him | 13:44 |
| JayX | acicula, dont want my information to fall into the wrong hands :P.. | 13:44 |
| red2kic | JayX: Darik :) | 13:44 |
| acicula | JayX: if you are that worried then just dont sell your disk | 13:44 |
| JayX | acicula, well is these people in my neighbour hood see how many computers i have, it might just get stolen instead of sold | 13:45 |
| JayX | red2kic, yea that dude's name | 13:45 |
| acicula | JayX: then you dont need secure erease, then you need an encrytped disk and abig bad dobermann | 13:45 |
| hutchit | @Curly_Q: would you suggest i enable ipv6 (or... change it from the current "ignore" setting). I am thinking that my ISP doesn't use ipv6 yet. | 13:45 |
| red2kic | JayX: I would imagine they'll try to look at whatever they can find... but not scanning the hard drives and recover whatever and copies them. They're just going to plug the hard drive in and see what shows up in Windows. | 13:46 |
| JayX | acicula, .. does it make much of a difference? encrypting the disk means i need to enter a password every time i want to access a certain folder? | 13:46 |
| harjot | whats an easy language to learn that has a good interface? | 13:46 |
| red2kic | JayX: No. The whole partition would be encrypted and you only have to type password every time you turn on the machine. | 13:47 |
| harjot | Is there anything like vb for ubuntu? | 13:47 |
| Dr_Willis | harjot: go learn Python., | 13:47 |
| harjot | python... | 13:47 |
| acicula | JayX: encrypting a disk means you need to unlock the data before you can view it, just erasing an unencrypted disk hopes you erase well enough | 13:47 |
| JayX | Haraken, English XD ....... i would try Python | 13:47 |
| Dr_Willis | harjot: forget about VisualBasic and its clones like 'gambas' | 13:47 |
| harjot | I know] | 13:47 |
| harjot | gambas | 13:47 |
| agronholm_ | acicula, tried tightvnc and realvnc | 13:47 |
| Curly_Q | Hutchit, I cannot answer that directly but I suggest you log into your IP homesite and see what they provide. Not only that, If you do in Windows an ipconfig /all you will see if your IP is using IPv6. Also in Linux do a ifconfig -all and see what your IP is using. | 13:47 |
| miansc | whats a GRUB alternative?? i hate grub :) | 13:47 |
| acicula | agronholm_: then i dont know :/ | 13:47 |
| harjot | Dr_Willis: im trying to make a quick launcher sort of app, whats the best way? | 13:47 |
| agronholm_ | acicula, works with nouveau driver like I said | 13:47 |
| red2kic | miansc: lilo | 13:47 |
| agronholm_ | but not with nvidia proprietary | 13:48 |
| acicula | agronholm_: yay for binary drivers :( | 13:48 |
| JayX | red2kic, acicula Ohh..... encrypting disk sounds good... | 13:48 |
| Dr_Willis | harjot: just a window with some buttons? about anything can do that. even bash and zenity | 13:48 |
| harjot | Dr_Willis: yup | 13:48 |
| JayX | red2kic, acicula can u encrypt the disk and have a dual boot? | 13:48 |
| miansc | red2kic: k, thanks, how can i install that? | 13:48 |
| harjot | Dr_Willis: Nothing compilcated | 13:48 |
| harjot | Dr_Willis: how can bash do that? | 13:48 |
| JayX | red2kic, acicula Win 7 and Ubuntu 10.04 | 13:48 |
| Dr_Willis | harjot: with a 'dialog' front end. | 13:48 |
| acicula | JayX: yeah | 13:48 |
| Yesso | Hey guys i bought this portable game system called a Dingoo, when i plug it in; ubuntu doesn't recognize it or show it in usb, or mount it. I tried finding it in gparted and it's not their either, i even reformatted it as fat32 like the guide said and still nothing. help? | 13:48 |
| harjot | Dr_Willis: hmmm.. i have a lot to learn | 13:48 |
| Dr_Willis | harjot: there used to be several of them. ive not used any in ages | 13:48 |
| The-Druid_ | does anyone here is having problems with the update manager? | 13:48 |
| Curly_Q | Hutchit, otherwise, Ipv6 is not that popular right now and it is in its experimental stage. Due to the over-demand for IP addresses. | 13:49 |
| The-Druid_ | it looks like mine hasn't got something to download for weeks, even the 10.04 beta | 13:49 |
| dmarkey | is it possible to run the livecd, but to store the changes somewhere on the local hard disk | 13:49 |
| Yesso | Hey guys i bought this portable game system called a Dingoo, when i plug it in; ubuntu doesn't recognize it or show it in usb, or mount it. I tried finding it in gparted and it's not their either, i even reformatted it as fat32 like the guide said and still nothing. help? It had an internel 4gb memory btw | 13:50 |
| red2kic | !lilo | miansc | 13:50 |
| ubottu | miansc: lilo is an alternative [Li]nux Boot[Lo]ader. Note: it is recommended that you use GRUB on Ubuntu instead. | 13:50 |
| _picAssO_ | anyone around who knows how to reatach all sessions in "screen"? | 13:50 |
| red2kic | miansc: You were looking for alternative. How irony. :-P | 13:50 |
| acicula | _picAssO_: screen -r or -x | 13:50 |
| miansc | cheers | 13:50 |
| Dr_Willis | harjot: perhaps --> http://linux.byexamples.com/archives/265/a-complete-zenity-dialog-examples-2/ | 13:50 |
| acicula | lilo is way worse then grub | 13:50 |
| miansc | red2kic: how so? | 13:50 |
| _picAssO_ | acicula: tanks | 13:50 |
| Yesso | Hey guys i bought this portable game system called a Dingoo, when i plug it in; ubuntu doesn't recognize it or show it in usb, or mount it.

| acicula | Hey yesso dont spam | 13:50 |
| Yesso | :/ | 13:51 |
| miansc | red2kic: Ohhhh! haha | 13:51 |
| harjot | Dr_Willis: ok i will see | 13:51 |
| Curly_Q | Hutchit, unless you fully understand Ipv6, I would just disable it for now and you can always change it to something else later. | 13:51 |
| hutchit | @Curly_Q: my 3 machines are behind a router here at home... but i have no access to the router because the ADSL company here doesn't give me login access to change settings. | 13:51 |
| red2kic | JayX: I imagine you could use truecrypt too. I have 20GB HDD (for encrypted /) and 300GB HDD (for encrypted /home). I'm not sure how to dual-boot. | 13:51 |
| acicula | Yesso: you can check if it is detected by typing lsusb or looking at dmesg output | 13:51 |
| red2kic | JayX: Also, I know TrueCrypt do offer full system encryption. It's just easier / cheaper to get another hard drives. | 13:52 |
| Curly_Q | Hutchit, does your router support Ipv6? Is it your personal router? | 13:52 |
| mylisto | argh... | 13:52 |
| ravenkhan | hi | 13:52 |
| acicula | i just use the ubuntu default /home loopback encryption | 13:52 |
| harjot | Dr_Willis: zenity looks promising' | 13:52 |
| hutchit | i am fairly certain that ipv6 isn't used by the ISP | 13:52 |
| mylisto | Trying to get sound working on my system...driving me nuts! | 13:52 |
| _picAssO_ | acicula: sorry, but if i have more than one detached sessions, it does not seem to work | 13:52 |
| acicula | _picAssO_: add the pid | 13:52 |
| jfb | what is a 'clean' way to install all software installed without using apt or aptitude, i.e. manually installed? | 13:52 |
| ravenkhan | hello | 13:53 |
| Dr_Willis | harjot: yea. i dont see one that can do a set of buttons.. but that document is a bit old, Cgheck the zenity docs it may have more features now | 13:53 |
| hutchit | and the ADSL box is also the router... all provided by the DSL company, but i have no login access, and to get them to change it means getting an appointment, which takes days | 13:53 |
| JayX | red2kic, well I got 2x1TB SATA HDD, and oen 250GB IDE/PATA HDD | 13:53 |
| miansc | red2kic: i cant get grub to load windows... now ubuntu i need serious help | 13:53 |
| jfb | correction, clean way to UNINSTALL | 13:53 |
| hutchit | so for now, the Karmic Network Manager has ipv6 as "ignore" | 13:53 |
| _picAssO_ | acicula: i would to reatach all of them at the same time; do i really have to add all pids? | 13:53 |
| acicula | jfb: your question does not make sense | 13:53 |
| acicula | _picAssO_: you can only attach to one screen per pty/tty | 13:53 |
| jfb | acicula, I've installed a bunch of stuff manually over the year... | 13:53 |
| acicula | jfb: a make uninstall if the src directory is still there | 13:54 |
| mynewusername | hey all | 13:54 |
| Curly_Q | Hutchit work with that adjustment for now and do some more homework on the subject. | 13:54 |
| jfb | I don't necessary know where it all is, as a lot was just testing... | 13:54 |
| JayX | red2kic, acicula BTW that reminds me of a question i had asked ealier on the forums... http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1347488 << Answer is still unclear to me | 13:54 |
| zicho | what is "phy0"? | 13:54 |
| VCoolio | jfb: depends on how you installed; with 'sudo make install' you'll need to enter the source folder and do 'sudo make uninstall' if it has the rules for it | 13:54 |
| red2kic | JayX: Consider buying a smallest HDD you can find (for system core) and the rest? Media. :) | 13:54 |
| acicula | jfb: otherwise make a list of all the files on the disk and crossreference against the files in the apt db, enjoy ;) | 13:54 |
| daniskami | jfb: did you compile from source or .deb packages? | 13:54 |
| hutchit | and none of the remaining 2 machines get any ipv6 addresses from the ADSL router when i query the network TCP/IP settings | 13:54 |
| jfb | danielck, mostly compiled from source | 13:54 |
| _picAssO_ | acicula: then i have understood something wrong: can "ctrl-a-space" flip through detached sessions? | 13:54 |
| red2kic | !fixgrub | miansc | 13:54 |
| ubottu | miansc: grub is the default boot manager for Ubuntu releases before Karmic (9.10). Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto - See !grub2 for Karmic onwards. | 13:54 |
| hutchit | alright. I'll keep searching for more. Thanks, Curly_Q. | 13:55 |
| red2kic | miansc: you can seek support in #grub too. Meanwhile, look at the links. | 13:55 |
| daniskami | jfb: if from source, consider 'checkinstall' in the future, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall | 13:55 |
| miansc | red2kic: tryed that man... still no luck | 13:55 |
| miansc | ohhh k cheers | 13:55 |
| harjot | Dr_Willis: yeah im looking for multiple buttons | 13:55 |
| hutchit | i am just baffled that in Jaunty this didn't exist... and there have been no hardware changes in the machine | 13:55 |
| jfb | danielck, acicula thanks... | 13:55 |
| VCoolio | jfb: I'd say do a clean install next week with lucid and use checkinstall from now on to install manually | 13:55 |
| === Guest34988 is now known as red-red|wine | ||
| jfb | VCoolio, that's exactly what I'm thinking! | 13:55 |
| acicula | _picAssO_: if you have a screen that has multiple windows yeah | 13:55 |
| daniskami | jfb: because checkinstall wraps the files from 'make install' into packages | 13:56 |
| _picAssO_ | acicula: ah, thanks | 13:56 |
| hutchit | fortunately Lucid is coming shortly, so i will also try upgrading to it to see if i get different performance | 13:56 |
| Curly_Q | Hutchit, I have an internship at a CISCO Network Academy. When we program the routers, it specifies that it is either Ipv4 or Ipv6. So the router and switches will determine that. Stick with Ipv4 for now. | 13:56 |
| alzamabar | Hi, my shutdown window just appeared although I haven't requested a shutdown. Any ideas? | 13:56 |
| * jfb is reading about checkinstall | 13:56 | |
| hutchit | i will follow your advice and not tinker with ipv6, Curly_Q. Thanks | 13:56 |
| anderson | Anyone from Brazil using Lucid? | 13:56 |
| acicula | jfb: you can also make deb packages from source stuff | 13:56 |
| acicula | !br | 13:57 |
| ubottu | Por favor, use #ubuntu-br para ajuda em português. Obrigado. | 13:57 |
| acicula | makes tracking what you install easier | 13:57 |
| red-red|wine | y0 | 13:57 |
| anderson | Thanks, dude! | 13:57 |
| mynewusername | why is configuring sound so damn hard on ubuntu? | 13:57 |
| Curly_Q | Hutchit, your welcome. If you see me here and find something else you would like to share with me, please do. | 13:57 |
| acicula | mynewusername: its not, can you formulate it as a support question? what have you tried, what did you expect it to do, what happened instead? | 13:58 |
| === red-red|wine is now known as kkkkkk | ||
| alzamabar | ** HELP ** Hi, my shutdown window just appeared although I haven't requested a shutdown. Any ideas? | 13:58 |
| jfb | acicula, so build a package from the source, then use aptitude to install it? | 13:58 |
| acicula | alzamabar: just click on cancel? | 13:58 |
| harjot | Dr_Willis: im not sure zenity can do multiple buttons, anything else? | 13:58 |
| mynewusername | acicula: to get my headphones to work I need to use my usb headset (on board jacks are busted)... | 13:58 |
| acicula | jfb: build a package from source into a deb package, then use dpkg to install the debpacakge | 13:59 |
| alzamabar | acicula, yes I've done that, but I'd like to know why the window appeared if I haven't asked for it | 13:59 |
| zee | u might have configured a shortcut or sth | 13:59 |
| mynewusername | what is the best sound system to use? | 13:59 |
| acicula | alzamabar: maybe because an update that was performed requires a reboot, pressing a power button, etc | 13:59 |
| mynewusername | oss/alsa or pulse audio? | 13:59 |
| hutchit | oh, Curly_Q... i just remembered another thing. I did this clean install of Karmic here with the Minimal CD... so the installer naturally had to download everything from the internet, and it did that at my full internet bandwidth. | 14:00 |
| jfb | acicula, from reading the check install page, sounds kind of like what it does... | 14:00 |
| harjot | Dr_Willis: will dialog do it? | 14:00 |
| alzamabar | acicula I haven't performed any updates. I just hope I haven't got a security issue here | 14:00 |
| jfb | acicula, especially if joined with auto-apt. | 14:00 |
| zicho | what is "phy0"? | 14:00 |
| hutchit | so i don't know why network bandwidth now would be different... but i'll keep investigating. | 14:00 |
| rodox | In xfce, howto disconnetc ppp0? I tried: sudo ifdown ppp0 / Ignoring unknown interface ppp0=ppp0. - In connection properties ppp0, the applet show activities for this interface | 14:00 |
| JayX | red2kic, I want to give up Window | 14:01 |
| Curly_Q | Hutchit if you are trying to figure out your bandwidth, check out Http://www.dslreports.com | 14:01 |
| JayX | windows* | 14:01 |
| acicula | jfb: checkinstall doesnt make debs on its own i think but yeah | 14:01 |
| jfb | acicula, no that's true... in fact, it specifically does state that at the top of the page... | 14:01 |
| alzamabar | JayX, good decision :-) | 14:01 |
| daniskami | the point of checkinstall is that you can easily remove the package using 'dpkg' later | 14:01 |
| hutchit | my bandwidth speed tests come consistent with this machine as with the other systems in my home... which is ironic | 14:01 |
| jfb | acicula, but it sure seems like an easy solution... | 14:01 |
| jfb | I've never built a package, so I'll have to investigate how many steps that takes | 14:02 |
| hutchit | because the speed tests come out alright... (tests done with no other load on the bandwidth) | 14:02 |
| acicula | alzamabar: i dont know | 14:02 |
| JayX | red2kic, should i install Win7 as a VM(to force myself to learn Ubuntu) or should i install Ubuntu as a VM on Win7? alzamabar | 14:02 |
| mynewusername | acicula: give me a few to try to explain this bs | 14:02 |
| hutchit | but when i try to download / upload, then i have slow performance. | 14:02 |
| * jfb goes to read about Ubuntu packageing | 14:02 | |
| VCoolio | jfb: checkinstall is quite easy; just be prepared to answer question like what version of the app you're installing and give a description etc, nothing difficult | 14:02 |
| hutchit | at first i thought it would be firefox, but the problem exists also when performing ubuntu software updates using either the command line or Update Manager | 14:03 |
| Curly_Q | Hutchit, http://www.dslreports.com will show which Internet Provider has the fastest and best bandwidth and you can test your speed on that site. | 14:03 |
| sebsebseb | JayX: If you want to 3D Windows game for example then you probably still need a dual boot really. If not sure Windows 7 in a vm should work fine for most apps. | 14:03 |
| daniskami | jfb: if it's all on your computer and you don't need to distribute packages, checkinstall is good enough | 14:03 |
| uLinux | ei how do i delete residual config' | 14:03 |
| uLinux | ? | 14:03 |
| jfb | VCoolio, can it be used for a binary distribution? | 14:03 |
| alzamabar | JayX, it depends what use you do of your OS. Windows is more media oriented and it has a vast userbase, therefore lots of drivers for all the little technological gadgets. Ubuntu it's just faster, better especially if you are using it for development, hosting, etc | 14:03 |
| VCoolio | jfb: a what? no clue there | 14:04 |
| Curly_Q | Hutchit, keep in mind as well that not all networks work at the same bandwidth and latency. Heavy network traffic is a factor too. | 14:04 |
| jfb | well, a file that's already built from source specifically for my hardware... (ie, like a .bin file) | 14:04 |
| uLinux | status :) | 14:05 |
| alzamabar | JayX for instance, media in Windows through a VM is slow (e.g. iTunes movies). Currently that is the only time I switch dual boot to Windows | 14:05 |
| JayX | alzamabar, ohh ok. | 14:05 |
| sebsebseb | JayX: Windows virtual machines tend to work well | 14:05 |
| sebsebseb | JayX: for most stuff | 14:05 |
| VCoolio | jfb: just put those in $PATH, hardly worth the effort the keep track of them; no files cluttered all over the disk, right? | 14:05 |
| sebsebseb | JayX: and yes you can play music and video in a virtual machine, and it shoudn't be much of an issue if at all. and Itunes is pretty sucky | 14:05 |
| jfb | VCoolio, okay... just trying to get used to 'best practices' | 14:06 |
| JayX | alzamabar, ok well i guess i will make Ubuntu a VM on my windows 7 ,machine, that way i cal play and learn it without messing up my system :D | 14:06 |
| sebsebseb | JayX: you can also play most multimedia files, MP3, AVI and what not in Ubuntu, once the codecs have been installed | 14:06 |
| === kkkkkk is now known as red-red|wine | ||
| jfb | VCoolio, I usually dump anything I don't find a package for in /opt | 14:06 |
| rodox | I use 3g modem and don't know how to disconnect | 14:06 |
| hutchit | i agree, Curly_Q. I have tried different ubuntu mirrors, and even selecting the "best" ubuntu mirror based on the test of all of them that Software Sources allows for. Same results. | 14:06 |
| jfb | and the build into /usr/local/bin | 14:06 |
| sebsebseb | JayX: it's better to dual boot, Ubuntu and Windows 7, than run Ubuntu inside Windows 7 in a vm | 14:06 |
| uLinux | Guys, i installed Mumble but it's not the latest stable version (this also happens with other applications). How do I update it? | 14:06 |
| VCoolio | jfb: that's cool; the default for 'make install' is /usr/local instead of /usr, so that helps too | 14:07 |
| sebsebseb | JayX: maybe for some quick trying Ubuntu in Windows 7 in a vm, other than that though, I woudn't recommend it at all. makes more sense to have Windows 7 inside the much more secure Ubuntu OS. | 14:07 |
| JayX | sebsebseb, ok well i had that as n idea.. ben seeking info in this forumn post i made, about RAID and dual botting >> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1347488 | 14:07 |
| sebsebseb | !dualboot | JayX | 14:08 |
| ubottu | JayX: Dual boot instructions: x86/AMD64: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBootHowTo - MACs: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro https://help.ubuntu.com/community/YabootConfigurationForMacintoshPowerPCsDualBoot | 14:08 |
| Curly_Q | Hutchit, when understanding networking, sending a ping is 32 hops. The networks look for the best path from source to destination. If any destination point is slow, then your bandwidth will be slow. | 14:08 |
| uLinux | I installed Mumble but it's not the latest stable version (this also happens with other applications). How do I update it? | 14:08 |
| JayX | sebseb, but the answer is still unclear on the raid.. i know how to dual boot, i got a Dual boot machine now... Win7 and Ubuntu 9.10 | 14:08 |
| JayX | sebsebseb, ~~^^ | 14:09 |
| acicula | uLinux: wait for a new revision of ubuntu or look on the mumble site for newer debs | 14:09 |
| felon | i was duelbooting also | 14:09 |
| sebsebseb | JayX: I don't use RAID, but I think doing a dual boot RAID, is probably similar like on a non RAID PC | 14:09 |
| felon | but then i wiped windows off and stuck wit ubuntu | 14:09 |
| uLinux | acicula Can't I update it with synaptic? | 14:09 |
| acicula | uLinux: if mumble provides a repository for karmic then you can | 14:09 |
| VCoolio | uLinux: maybe there is a repository containing newer builds; check on launchpad.net | 14:10 |
| mede | I can't install hp scanjet 3670 on linux, help!!!! | 14:10 |
| mynewusername | acicula: god this is driving me friggin nuts! | 14:10 |
| sebsebseb | JayX: also I woudn't normally recommend Wubi, but that's useualy ok really for some quick trying or short term Ubuntu useage. | 14:10 |
| sebsebseb | !wubi > JayX | 14:10 |
| ubottu | JayX, please see my private message | 14:10 |
| acicula | uLinux: ubuntu standard repositories focus on providin security updates and switch to new revisions every 6 months | 14:10 |
| mynewusername | I just want to be able to use my gigaware usb headset to listen to music on my ubuntu machine | 14:10 |
| acicula | mynewusername: mind your language | 14:11 |
| Curly_Q | Hutchit, an example, if you PING 127.0.0.1 you will see a TTL ( Time To Live ) perhaps 128 mili-seconds. If you PING any destination you can see what the TTL time is. | 14:11 |
| JayX | sebsebseb, yea i used wubi on my netbook, WinXP and Karmic Netbookremix | 14:11 |
| acicula | mynewusername: you have an on board sound card thats not working properly and want to use an usb based soundcard with headset instead? | 14:11 |
| hutchit | i agree with you, Curly_Q | 14:11 |
| mynewusername | sorry...just agro | 14:11 |
| mynewusername | yeah, the onboard jacks are busted | 14:11 |
| mynewusername | somehow the usb headset was working yesterday...and it was also able to pass sound to my xp installation on virtual box | 14:12 |
| hutchit | in all that i've searched, i find a lot of postings on people experiencing similar symptoms to mine | 14:12 |
| ownpown | hi | 14:12 |
| alien260 | mede: According to this post http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=87942 ur scanner isnt supported .. but that 2007 .. | 14:12 |

| === own is now known as ownpown | ||
| acicula | mynewusername: probably its just defaulting to your onboard and you need to switch that | 14:13 |
| hutchit | i just did a test with DSLreports and got average (normal) readings for my bandwidth | 14:13 |
| mede | ok I'll look | 14:13 |
| Curly_Q | Hutchit, it is just a matter of finding the right sources of information. It takes a lot of time and effort. | 14:13 |
| hutchit | approx 1.2Mbps down - 480kbps up | 14:13 |
| mynewusername | acicula: how do I do that? | 14:13 |
| acicula | look at the thread | 14:14 |
| acicula | 2~I can use the usb sound card by going to system-->preferences-->sound and then selecting "USB Audio" | 14:14 |
| hutchit | no doubt about that. i've been at this for nearly 3 months | 14:14 |
| hutchit | i've resisted going back to Jaunty because i like the features of Karmic, but the slow bandwidth to everything on the internet (except for speed tests, which is the only thing that shows normal performance) is awful | 14:15 |
| Curly_Q | Hutchit, keep in mind that Ipv6 does not change your bandwidth. It is just a different dot decimal system for IP addresses. | 14:15 |
| acicula | hutchit: are you speedtesting while hooked directly into the dsl modem or via hub/switch/wireless? | 14:15 |
| VirusTB | is there an Linux alternative to the windows "LogMeIn" .. just incase i feel like retrieving a file from my desktop when im not at home | 14:16 |
| sebsebseb | hutchit: well as I already saw you mention, Lucid is coming out soon. Do a clean install I guess, and good luck iwth that. | 14:16 |
| hutchit | well, thus far i've stayed with ipv4 in all the machines, because i'm not at all well informed on using ipv6 | 14:16 |
| hutchit | i'm speed-testing directly hooked to the ADSL modem | 14:16 |
| CloudLevi | Sooo...anyone know how I can remove whatever firewall Linux has (TEMP) so I can get the SC2 updates installed in a realistic amount of time??? | 14:16 |
| sebsebseb | hutchit: or try another distro if you want, loads to choose from http://www.distrowatch.com | 14:16 |
| Dr_Willis | CloudLevi: sudo iptables --flush | 14:16 |
| hutchit | i am banking on that fact... that Lucid will be my redemption. :-) | 14:16 |
| Dr_Willis | CloudLevi: thats IF theres any actual firewall setup. Theres none by default | 14:17 |
| hutchit | actually, other distros work without a problem (below Karmic) | 14:17 |
| Dr_Willis | CloudLevi: use sudo iptables --list to see if theres any rules | 14:17 |
| hutchit | even the LiveCDs of other distros have no problems with bandwidth | 14:17 |
| sebsebseb | hutchit: below Karmic is other versions of Ubuntu, not other Linux distros | 14:18 |
| hutchit | i've tried DamnSmallLinux, Clonezilla, SystemRescueCD, Xubuntu, Linux Mint | 14:18 |
| CloudLevi | Dr_Willis: This bring up a console? Need to bring it back up after | 14:18 |
| uLinux | I uninstalled TeamSpeak but .teamspeak2 folder still exists. Can I remove it? Why doesn't Ubuntu automatically delete it? | 14:18 |
| jfb | VCoolio, acicula is there a way to revert to a 'fresh' install, I've added a few packages from repositories, but I want to do it again... being a little more organized ;) | 14:18 |
| hutchit | and within the Ubuntu family, anything below Karmic works normally | 14:18 |
| mustafa | is there any virus that affects ubuntu? | 14:18 |
| hutchit | i've also tried Slax... no problems there | 14:18 |
| mustafa | do you know? | 14:19 |
| sebsebseb | !virus | mustafa | 14:19 |
| ubottu | mustafa: A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21 | 14:19 |
| coz_ | mustafa, not that I am aware of at the moment | 14:19 |
| jfb | I just discovered the science-* meta packages, so I figure I should start with those... | 14:19 |
| coz_ | mustafa, there many linux viruses but as far as I know they are not found on linux desktops | 14:19 |
| CloudLevi | ugh x_X I'll deal with this later | 14:19 |
| CloudLevi | se ya | 14:19 |
| coz_ | mustafa, so at least for a few more years ... you are safe with ubuntu :) | 14:20 |
| hutchit | well, i've got to go. Thanks again for the info / advice, Curly_Q | 14:20 |
| uLinux | I uninstalled TeamSpeak but .teamspeak2 folder still exists. Can I remove it? Why doesn't Ubuntu automatically delete it? | 14:20 |
| sebsebseb | hutchit: well there you go then, issue in Lucid as well, I guess find yourself another distro to use, or get your issue fixed some how maybe. Unless you want to downgrade to 9.04 which runs out of support this October. Or if you want to downgrade all the way back to 8.04 which runs out of support next year. | 14:20 |
| nand` | Is there an extra .iso or download for doing an ubuntu minimal install, or how do I install it off the regular DVD, in which case how exactly do I do it? | 14:20 |
| Curly_Q | Your welcome Hutchit. Come back and chat with me again. | 14:21 |
| coz_ | uLinux, if the executable is gone you can safely remove that directory | 14:21 |
| erUSUL | !minimal | nand` | 14:21 |
| ubottu | nand`: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 14:21 |
| uLinux | How do I make to delete app folders when I uinstall a n app? | 14:21 |
| hutchit | i'll keep looking and trying different things... and maybe, just maybe will have to settle for Hardy, for the extended support, as you put it | 14:21 |
| erUSUL | uLinux: the packge manager takes cre of that | 14:21 |
| hutchit | have a good one everybody! | 14:21 |
| erUSUL | uLinux: the package manager takes care of that | 14:21 |
| nand` | erUSUL: thank you | 14:21 |
| uLinux | erUSUL it didnt delete the .teamspeak2 folder | 14:21 |
| Curly_Q | ;) | 14:21 |
| iceroot | uLinux: apt-get remove --purge to remove everything the program is creating (not in ~) | 14:21 |
| uLinux | and i ran residual config cleanup | 14:22 |
| sebsebseb | hutchit: except that only seems to have untill April next year, so not much point | 14:22 |
| coz_ | uLinux, you should be able to right click and delete or move to trash or open a terminal cd to that location and do rm -rf name of folder | 14:22 |
| sebsebseb | harjot: on the desktop since three years of support for the desktop | 14:22 |
| coz_ | uLinux, that would be sudo rm -rf nameof directory | 14:22 |
| uLinux | coz_ yes but why doesnt ubuntu delete it automatically when I removed it? | 14:22 |
| coz_ | uLinux, well I noticed that in the home directory some configuration files may be left over from an uninstall | 14:23 |
| uLinux | yes | 14:23 |
| iceroot | uLinux: because you are using it "wrong" witouht --purge apt-get is not removing conffiles | 14:23 |
| tzanger | morning. Is there a quick dbus command or something I can run to tell NetworkManager that yes, I am connected to the internet, just not through one of its managed interfaces? | 14:23 |
| uLinux | iceroot I used ubuntu software center to uninstall it | 14:23 |
| tzanger | I'm connected through my cell phone (bnep0) but networkmanager doesn't know about it, and apps that check if the network is connected don't even try to work | 14:23 |
| tzanger | but things like chrome and ssh work fine | 14:23 |
| iceroot | uLinux: there should be also the option for purge | 14:23 |
| uLinux | iceroot just a Remove button | 14:24 |
| harjot | sebsebseb: ? | 14:24 |
| iceroot | uLinux: hm, dont know, i never use a gui for sotware-management | 14:24 |
| uLinux | :P | 14:24 |
| yofel | software center can't purge packages, use synaptic for that | 14:24 |
| uLinux | oh | 14:25 |
| iceroot | uLinux: or use apt-get directly | 14:25 |
| uLinux | "sudo apt-get remove --purge" | 14:25 |
| iceroot | uLinux: + packagename | 14:25 |
| Dr_Willis | rember that purging will not get rid of user configs. :) | 14:26 |
| uLinux | "sudo apt-get remove --purge teamspeak" | 14:26 |
| uLinux | Dr_Willis yes but synaptic take care of it too | 14:26 |
| uLinux | :P | 14:26 |
| iceroot | uLinux: i guess its called teamspeak-client and teamspeak-server | 14:26 |
| uLinux | ye | 14:26 |
| Dr_Willis | uLinux: err not configs in the users home dirs.. it wont.. | 14:26 |
| iceroot | uLinux: its only removing conffiles which are created with postinst, rules and so on, nothing you created by starting the program like configs in the home-dir | 14:27 |
| uLinux | i just a command so it deletes the application folder | 14:27 |
| uLinux | automatically | 14:28 |
| uLinux | i can move it to trash | 14:28 |
| C_h0use | Has anyone noticed if 10.04 has lost some support for usb wifi adapter's? | 14:28 |
| iceroot | C_h0use: #ubuntu+1 | 14:28 |
| uLinux | Dr_Willis iceroot so software center uses purge... it's the same thing | 14:29 |
| uLinux | because it's already deleted and didnt delete config files | 14:29 |
| iceroot | uLinux: i told you already what purge is doing | 14:29 |
| uLinux | ok iceroot | 14:29 |
| uLinux | u just dont use gui :P | 14:29 |
| uLinux | So the only way to remove EVERYTHING related with the application it's by deleting the folder/config manually | 14:30 |
| uLinux | btw can you tell me what's folder containing default wallpapers? | 14:31 |
| delac | any thoughts why: "sudo pkill -9 -u USERNAME PROCESSNAME" has no effect while sudo kill PID works? | 14:32 |
| uLinux | found it. | 14:33 |
| uLinux | /usr/share/backgrounds/ | 14:33 |
| alien260 | delac: just use kill -9 PROCESSNAME | 14:33 |
| delac | alien260: i'd like to kill the processes only for certain user | 14:34 |
| dn5 | hi to all | 14:34 |
| delac | alien260: and does processname work with kill? | 14:34 |
| dn5 | anyone know how to see process running over terminal? | 14:35 |
| Curly_Q | Dn5 top | 14:35 |
| dn5 | Curly_Q thanks :) | 14:35 |
| erUSUL | dn5: ps aux | 14:35 |
| alien260 | delac: I think it would be kill -9 -u Userid PROCESSNAME | 14:35 |
| alien260 | delac: else why not use top or htop (if u have it installed) | 14:36 |
| delac | alien260: well kill doesnt seem to understand PROCESSNAMES. only pkill can do that | 14:37 |
| G_A_C | delac: killall uses process names, then kills all PIDs matching that name. kill can only use PIDs as otherwise it has no way of distinguishing between multiple processes with the same name | 14:37 |
| erUSUL | delac: "pkill processname" | 14:37 |
| alien260 | delac: my bad i mean process ID .. u can find the id by using top | 14:37 |
| delac | I need to kill several processes of same name | 14:38 |
| delac | for certain user | 14:38 |
| delac | any thoughts why: "sudo pkill -9 -u USERNAME PROCESSNAME" has no effect while sudo kill PID works? | 14:38 |
| uLinux | To make a wallpaper show in Wallpapers list how can I do it.. | 14:40 |
| uLinux | ? | 14:40 |
| uLinux | i cant copy the image to backgrounds folder | 14:40 |
| uLinux | maybe it's im not root | 14:40 |
| erUSUL | uLinux: use sudo ? (if it is a system folder) | 14:40 |
| Curly_Q | Delac, if I may use the illustration: Using a hand gun will find its direct target which is the sudo pkill -9 USERNAME PROCESSNAME but using a shotgun will get them all such as sudo kill PID. | 14:40 |
| chrometiger | has anyone got the World Of Warcraft Steelseries mouse to work on ubuntu ? or know how to set the 17 buttons on it for WoW | 14:41 |
| delac | Curly_Q: don't you mean the other way around? | 14:42 |
| psycho_oreos | -9 is probably one of the highest execution an user can do when terminating a task, usually kill/pkill would issue something else apart from -9 | 14:42 |

| alien260 | alessandro_: #ubuntu-it | 14:53 |
| alessandro_ | ok, thx | 14:54 |
| delac | HA! ok, the problem seemed to be the fact that the processname i was trying to kill contained '-' and pkill didn't like that... | 14:55 |
| psycho_oreos | delac, maybe sudo pkill -KILLSPEC -u USERNAME PROCESS_NAME ? | 14:55 |
| delac | psycho_oreos: got it allready... :) | 14:55 |
| delac | psycho_oreos: HA! ok, the problem seemed to be the fact that the processname i was trying to kill contained '-' and pkill didn't like that... | 14:56 |
| psycho_oreos | delac, meh in that case you'll need to kill it by the numbers | 14:56 |
| psycho_oreos | delac, yes I just saw that | 14:56 |
| delac | psycho_oreos: well. striping the processname down to the part that didnt contain the '-' did the trick. pkill can handle partial processnames | 14:56 |

| SpaceCowboy40404 | anyone know how I can easily transfer all my music from a windows vista pc over to this ubuntu pc? | 15:06 |
| yogesh712harish | Dr_willis: thank you sir...let me try this | 15:06 |
| Dr_Willis | SpaceCowboy40404: access the remote box by samba, or using winscp/ssh and copy the files over. | 15:06 |
| erUSUL | SpaceCowboy40404: via samba ? or ftp. filzilla ftp server for windows can be intalled in a few minutes. then copy all music | 15:06 |
| SpaceCowboy40404 | which of those methods are the easiest | 15:07 |
| SpaceCowboy40404 | if it can go wrong for me it will :) | 15:07 |
| SpaceCowboy40404 | do i need to put filzilla client on windows or filezilla server? | 15:09 |
| bastid_raZor | SpaceCowboy40404: use winscp on windows | 15:10 |
| erUSUL | SpaceCowboy40404: ssh + winscp seems the best option. Dr_Willis bastid_raZor tyvm | 15:10 |
| SpaceCowboy40404 | thanks for the advice... will give them a try and come back when i mess it up :) | 15:11 |

| mylisto | is it just me, or is audio a HUGE issue with ubuntu? I'm running 8.04 | 15:25 |
| erUSUL | SpaceCowboy40404: use winscp in windows to connect to the ubuntu box | 15:25 |
| SpaceCowboy40404 | how? | 15:25 |
| SpaceCowboy40404 | when i open winscp it is asking for a hostname, port number, username and password and private key file | 15:26 |
| mylisto | alls I'm trying to do is to use my usb headset for audio as my on board jacks are busted... | 15:26 |
| erUSUL | hostname is ubuntu ip port number leave it blank it will use default. username and password use tyour user's one | 15:26 |

| aar | I have a bash script containing a loop that is applied to *.pdf. How should I use the command "find" and the option "-exec" to run this loop recursively in all subdirectories? | 15:27 |
| erUSUL | mylisto: i would use a newer ubuntu version usb audio is better with latest pulseaudio afaik | 15:27 |
| mylisto | erusul: do I have to upgrade my ubuntu or can I just upgrade pulseaudio? | 15:28 |
| SpaceCowboy40404 | connection is timing out... | 15:28 |
| SpaceCowboy40404 | correct ip, correct username and password as well | 15:28 |
| erUSUL | mylisto: as i said; i would install 9.10 or even the 10.04 RC ( which is LTS like 8.04 ) | 15:28 |
| mylisto | lts? | 15:29 |
| erUSUL | SpaceCowboy40404: is sshd running in ubuntu ? | 15:29 |
| erUSUL | !lts | 15:29 |

| mylisto | could this be an issue with an upgrade? | 15:31 |

| delac | mylisto: allways before upgrade try the live-cd to see that everything works ok | 15:31 |

| mylisto | hmm... | 15:31 |
| SpaceCowboy40404 | do i uyse my internal network ip for the ubuntu machine in winscp or do i use my external ip? | 15:31 |

| mylisto | 2 gigs | 15:36 |
| SpaceCowboy40404 | erUSUL: disable then cause i dont know how to do that | 15:36 |
| delac | mylisto: then not much difference | 15:37 |
| scunizi | mylisto: depends.. on what you're doing .. video ? then 64 bit.. email & internet? won't matter | 15:37 |
| erUSUL | SpaceCowboy40404: but for a quck and dirt file copy operation seems better to just disable it for a while | 15:37 |
| coachj | lmw guess they werent installed | 15:37 |

| danny0205 | hello everyone, I'm new | 15:45 |
| mylisto | which is the latest one delac:? | 15:45 |
| bastid_raZor | Engrish_Man: /window numberofwindow .. also i think /w may work for shorthand | 15:45 |
| cwraig | mark2: have a look and try to find out which drive is your primary master (for old ide drives) or for the first sata disk cause thats where the linux bootloader will be installed | 15:45 |
| Engrish_Man | Ok it works ... thx guys | 15:45 |
| ivanatwork | mark2, you have to install Ubuntu in one partition and to tell GRUB (or the bootloader) what to do ... is GRUB the problem? | 15:45 |
| cwraig | mark2: you could just keep changing your boot disk until you find ubuntu | 15:45 |
| delac | mylisto: Lucid 10.04, but its still RC and the final will be releaced at 29.4. | 15:45 |
| mylisto | rc? | 15:46 |
| SpaceCowboy40404 | erUSUL: it is connecting now, but is saying access is denied due to password error... I am using the same password I use to login on this machine? | 15:46 |
| delac | mylisto: releace candidate | 15:46 |
| erUSUL | yes | 15:46 |
| scunizi | Engrish_Man: irssi can be split horizontally so you can watch several channels at the same time. | 15:46 |
| erUSUL | and the same username SpaceCowboy40404 | 15:46 |
| delac | mylisto: its allmost as good as the final version | 15:46 |
| Engrish_Man | scunizi: orly...? where can i do that | 15:46 |
| SpaceCowboy40404 | erUSUL: spelling error i think just a sec | 15:46 |
| gimmickless_ | re-install cups, you mean? | 15:46 |
| delac | mylisto: you can test with it, but dont install it yet | 15:46 |
| Engrish_Man | scunizi: i guess i can also change the default colors | 15:47 |
| mark2 | i think the dvd drive is the main IDE drive, but as far as i know thats not being used cause im using SATA, as far as i can see i have tried to boot from all the drives without success | 15:47 |
| delac | mylisto: wait for the final before installing | 15:47 |
| scunizi | Engrish_Man: "help window" or rather /help window in irssi | 15:47 |
| zerty | chroot for what ? | 15:47 |
| Engrish_Man | ok thx! | 15:47 |
| mylisto | think I will just use 9.04 | 15:47 |

| SpaceCowboy40404 | erUSUL: haha spelling error.. apperantly it is case speccific | 15:47 |
| zerty | pivotroot for what ? | 15:47 |
| SpaceCowboy40404 | erUSUL: im in now | 15:47 |

| erUSUL | SpaceCowboy40404: well copy the files now ;) | 15:48 |
| SpaceCowboy40404 | erUSUL: yep copying now thanks for help | 15:48 |
| Engrish_Man | scunizi: i was trying that help command .... but everytime i was on a channel not in the status screen now that i can change between channels i can reach for the status screen :-D | 15:48 |
| delac | mylisto: 9.04 is very outdated allready! (i know, i'm using it myself :) ) for example firefox in the 9.04 doesn't receive security updates anymore | 15:49 |
| iceroot | delac: sure it does | 15:49 |
| delac | iceroot: the default firefox 3.0? | 15:49 |
| iceroot | delac: for 3.0 patches are backported, for 3.5 there are still patches | 15:49 |
| iceroot | delac: yes, for both are still security-updates | 15:49 |
| mylisto | delac: is there a newer version? | 15:49 |
| mylisto | other than the lucid one? | 15:49 |
| delac | iceroot: oh, my bad | 15:50 |
| delac | mylisto: for what, firefox? | 15:50 |
| iceroot | delac: also lenny is using ff3.0 (iceweasel) too, there are security-updates too | 15:50 |
| mylisto | er, for ubuntu? | 15:50 |
| delac | mylisto: newest stable ubuntu is Karmic 9.10 | 15:51 |
| delac | iceroot: who is doing these security updates? as far as i know, Mozilla does not | 15:51 |
| gimmickless_ | scunizi: Re-installed CUPS. localhost:631/admin still not finding a printer. | 15:52 |
| mark2 | im just gonna go try change my boot prioriety and then see if that works ... :) | 15:52 |
| iceroot | delac: debian-security-maintainer | 15:52 |
| scunizi | gimmickless_: didn't mean reinstall cups.. reinstall the printer.. don't wait for automatic recognition | 15:53 |
| iceroot | delac: they are backporting patches from 3.5 for 3.0 | 15:53 |

| andiolsi | hi, what do i need to do to make my radeon hd5870 display port run my 30" at 2560x1600 under 9.10 64bit? as a long time debian user i would now procede to let packages be packages and compile my own kernel and create my own xorg.conf. is there a shorter way in ubuntu? | 15:53 |
| iceroot | echosystm: choose a laptop and then look if it is running ubuntu | 15:53 |
| andiolsi | i installed the fglrx driver via gui as per recommendation, but i get a "AMD unsupported hardware" logo. | 15:53 |
| andiolsi | and my mouse pointer is gone | 15:54 |
| echosystm | isnt there anywhere saying laptops that run awesome? | 15:54 |
| acicula | andiolsi: System->administration->hardware drivers | 15:54 |
| delac | iceroot: i would think that might be problematic at times... but if they can do it, so why not :) | 15:54 |
| andiolsi | echosystm: my x301 works just fine | 15:54 |
| rodox | somebody have experience with 3g modem? | 15:54 |
| acicula | andiolsi: there is no need to (re)build a kernel | 15:54 |
| iceroot | !hardware | echosystm | 15:54 |
| ubottu | echosystm: For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport - To help debugging and improving hardware detection, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingHardwareDetection | 15:54 |
| acicula | rodox: yes, but better to just ask about/describe your problem | 15:54 |
| iceroot | !anyone | rodox | 15:55 |
| ubottu | rodox: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? | 15:55 |
| cwraig2 | echosystm, ive got a asus g60jx no issues | 15:55 |
| andiolsi | acicula: my first guess would be a too old fglrx driver in 9.10 mainline | 15:55 |
| iceroot | delac: its working fine | 15:55 |
| ubuntubama | Enter text here... | 15:55 |
| penocio | is there ANY way to convert ext3 to fat32 without loosing data? | 15:55 |
| acicula | andiolsi: have you tried the current driver? | 15:55 |
| rodox | ubottu: a bot without answers | 15:55 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 15:55 |
| andiolsi | acicula: yes, that displays a "AMD Unsupported Hardware" Logo in the lower left corner of X | 15:56 |
| andiolsi | lower right | 15:56 |
| acicula | andiolsi: and the open source driver does not provide the resolution that you want? | 15:56 |
| acicula | andiolsi: there may be a flgrx in the backports, there should be a newer in the 10.04 ubuntu version comming in a week | 15:57 |
| ravenkhan | please tell me how can i standy my sytem | 15:57 |
| ravenkhan | in ubuntu 9.1 | 15:57 |
| andiolsi | acicula: if i install the 10.04 beta now, will it bee a seemles apt-get dist-upgrade to next weeks version? | 15:57 |
| iceroot | andiolsi: yes | 15:57 |
| ravenkhan | please tell me how can i standy my sytem | 15:58 |
| acicula | andiolsi: well its still beta, but yeah you can update to the final 10.04 revision | 15:58 |
| andiolsi | so no need playing around with 9.10 :p | 15:58 |
| ravenkhan | please tell me how can i standby my sytem | 15:58 |
| acicula | andiolsi: well it is still a release candidate, they are still ironing out, at least one, serious bugs | 15:58 |
| maco | ravenkhan: should be a suspend option in the dropdown in far top right corner | 15:58 |
| ravenkhan | maco :yeah but that doesnot put laptop into low power state | 15:59 |
| peturi | Hi, i'm looking for a user friendly backup application for my girlfriend.. any suggestions? | 15:59 |
| acicula | andiolsi: its worth a try for sure at least, given that 9.10 is about as hold as the 5xxx series it wouldnt be surprising it lacks recent fglrx binary drivers from amd that support the hd5xxx | 15:59 |
| ravenkhan | maaco :i mean by standby that low power state | 15:59 |
| maco | ravenkhan: oh do you want hibernate? | 15:59 |
| andiolsi | acicula: ah, i dont care about "stability", ran debian unstable for years. dpkg --force-all is my best friend | 15:59 |
| ravenkhan | maco : no | 16:00 |
| maco | ravenkhan: the one that takes a while and is practically off? | 16:00 |
| acicula | well debian unstable is kind of, stable / | 16:00 |
| === LeMoNiCe is now known as h32Lg | ||
| maco | ravenkhan: well suspend (low power, fast resume) and hibernate (no power, slow resume) are the two options | 16:00 |
| andiolsi | hence the double quotes | 16:00 |
| ravenkhan | maco : no not hibernate ....standby mode in which all orocesses run | 16:00 |
| acicula | andiolsi: liking the edge huh, try gentoo with nightly builds ;) | 16:00 |
| andiolsi | acicula: gentoo is pain, the installation rules though | 16:01 |
| maco | ravenkhan: i dont know of anything like that at all... wouldnt that just be "on" if there are processes still running? | 16:01 |
| ravenkhan | maco: all processes are active but screen is off and on pressing any key turn lap on | 16:01 |
| maco | ravenkhan: so just blanking the screen? | 16:01 |
| acicula | andiolsi: it rules if you can enjoy yourself an entire afternoon watching code compile and drinking beer | 16:01 |
| papa | moi j'ai un eeepc qui dechire | 16:01 |
| maco | ravenkhan: thatd be in screensaver settings... | 16:01 |
| acicula | which is off course awesome | 16:01 |

| andiolsi | is that the proper image: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/lucid-desktop-amd64.iso ? | 16:01 |
| ronnie | I have installed ubuntu 9.10 inside Vista After reboot I typed my admin number correctly | 16:01 |
| ronnie | but | 16:01 |
| ravenkhan | maco : no have you seen standby mide in windows XP? | 16:02 |
| guntbert | !ot | andiolsi | 16:02 |
| ubottu | andiolsi: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 16:02 |
| acicula | andiolsi: err bett grab the rc from the frontpage instead of the daily live | 16:02 |
| maco | ravenkhan: not in a few years | 16:02 |
| acicula | the rc works for sure, the daily build ymmv ? | 16:02 |
| islington | hello I have the package called "inkscape" installed from the official repositories; I found the nightly builds of this package, but I dont want to get rid of the repository version; anyway to install the deb and not have it replace the current version? install it somewhere else maybe? | 16:02 |
| papa | sorry | 16:02 |
| maco | islington: nope | 16:02 |
| ravenkhan | maco : not aware of standby mode then | 16:02 |
| ronnie | I have installed ubuntu 9.10 inside Vista After reboot I typed my admin number but got an error message. Can anyone help? | 16:02 |
| ronnie | ubuntu would not start | 16:03 |
| acicula | islington: well you can drop it in your home and call it with full paths, but it requires some effort to prevent conflicts and library mixups | 16:03 |
| islington | maco: anyway to rename the package so that naming is not the same: something like inkscape-nightly? | 16:03 |
| ravenkhan | maco : actually in standby all processes run but the system is in low power state but in suspend here in ubuntu system gets logout | 16:03 |
| Engrish_Man | "all your ubuntu are belong to win vista" | 16:03 |
| maco | ravenkhan: whatever it is, i guess it doesnt exist here. the way you're describing it though sounds like "turn on good power management settings & blank the screen" which since we already have dynamic cpu allocation enabled, the "good power management settings" part should already be there | 16:03 |
| maco | islington: the issue is they use the same files on teh system | 16:03 |
| acicula | islington: the problem is not just the package name but they probably also try to change the same files | 16:03 |
| * acicula high fives maco | 16:03 | |
| bluebaron | is 10.04 released yet? | 16:03 |
| acicula | bluebaron: nope, on a release candidate atm | 16:04 |
| xangua | no | 16:04 |
| maco | ravenkhan: you shouldnt be logged out on suspend, just screensaver enabled (possibly with screen lock though?) | 16:04 |
| bluebaron | it's out tomorrow right? | 16:04 |
| xangua | no | 16:04 |
| acicula | bluebaron: its out on the 29th | 16:04 |
| andiolsi | acicula: is there some kind of netinstall image for 10.04? | 16:04 |
| islington | hmm, I guess I will install the nighly version on a virtual machine thanks acicula maco | 16:04 |
| bluebaron | eff my life | 16:04 |
| acicula | andiolsi: eh yeah without a doubt | 16:04 |
| maco | andiolsi: yeah lemme find it | 16:04 |
| ravenkhan | maco : yeah i suspend it just get locked but no reduction in power consumption | 16:04 |
| acicula | andiolsi: the netboot iso maybe missing but there should be netboot kernel+initrd images | 16:05 |
| ravenkhan | maco : and in hibernate system gets shutdown with processes settings saved | 16:05 |
| norbi | I don't think I have my dual display set-up correctly. I'm using Ubuntu minimal install with PekWM window manager and bmpanel2 as my panel. They both treat my dual display as one big screen, even though nvidia I have it set up as Twinview. The panel goes along both screens. Now, when I start nvidis-settings, all open windows move to one display, and my panel also moves to only one of the displays. This only happens | 16:05 |
| acicula | andiolsi: you can typically find them hiding away in the release trees under x/y/z/1/null/null/nowehere/netboot | 16:05 |
| acicula | takes a bit of digging | 16:05 |
| ravenkhan | maco : i need one in which power consumption less with processes running not like suspend in which only system gets locked | 16:05 |
| andiolsi | acicula: meh. whats the name of that windows usb stick install thingy? | 16:06 |
| acicula | unetbootin | 16:06 |
| acicula | oh windows | 16:06 |
| andiolsi | exactly | 16:06 |
| acicula | err | 16:06 |
| acicula | unetbootin? | 16:06 |
| andiolsi | ye | 16:06 |
| maco | ravenkhan: no reduction in power consumption on suspend? | 16:06 |
| acicula | http://sourceforge.net/projects/unetbootin/files/UNetbootin/433/unetbootin-windows-433.exe/download | 16:07 |
| ravenkhan | no i dont think so | 16:07 |
| guntbert | ravenkhan: suspend = suspend to ram = nothing is running, the system needs only enough power to keep the RAM contents | 16:07 |
| maco | ravenkhan: that is a bad bug then. you're saying you can only stay suspended for about 2 hours from a full battery? | 16:07 |
| acicula | that cant be | 16:07 |
| maco | ravenkhan: ideally you should be able to stay suspended a few days from a full battery (though on my laptop it used to be 12hr and is now thankfully more like 24-30) | 16:07 |
| bastid_raZor | ravenkhan: suspend is like hibernate but writes to RAM instead of disk. both, technically, hibernate the box | 16:07 |
| maco | bastid_raZor: no | 16:08 |
| ravenkhan | ok | 16:08 |
| ravenkhan | then fine | 16:08 |
| maco | bastid_raZor: the system has to still use some power to keep the RAM awake. with hibernate it doesnt use any | 16:08 |
| ravenkhan | thanks | 16:08 |
| acicula | suspend means a total shutdown of the system bar power to the ram and some mainboard components? | 16:08 |
| maco | acicula: right | 16:08 |
| acicula | if your out of juice in suspend in 2hours then its not suspending | 16:08 |
| acicula | then its just idling along | 16:08 |
| ravenkhan | .fasinfo susmit | 16:08 |
| andiolsi | acicula: i was planning on using fluxbox as wm again, do you see any problem coming up with that? | 16:09 |
| maco | acicula: some hardware will refuse to shut down properly or the kernel wont know how to do it properly, and then you get cases like mine where suspend only lasts 12h, and thats something to file a bug about | 16:09 |
| acicula | andiolsi: a wm is just a wm, its horribly tiny and limited, but it'll move your windows? | 16:09 |
| maco | ravenkhan: please file a bug using the command "ubuntu-bug linux" if your system is not suspending properly | 16:09 |
| acicula | maco: ah like so, but then we are talking periphials that keep spinning, ussually not the cpu/chipset/hdd i'd assume? | 16:10 |
| andiolsi | acicula: i dont expect any problems, but maybe some of the gui-tools of ubuntu require gnome as wm? | 16:10 |
| acicula | andiolsi: gnome is not a wm, you can run gnome on top of fluxbox | 16:10 |
| maco | ravenkhan: also, there is a suspend & hibernate test script at /usr/share/checkbox/scripts/suspend_test you can run to get more diagnostic info to give to the developers | 16:11 |
| andiolsi | acicula: so whats the default wm for ubuntu? | 16:11 |
| acicula | though if you have a 30" screen, a hd5870 you will have the matching set no doubt, so why'd youd want to bother with fluxbox .. | 16:11 |
| bastid_raZor | maco: correct, i knew it in my head correctly but bad head to mouth(finger) tranfer | 16:11 |
| acicula | andiolsi: metacity, or compiz for the whizbang flashy stuff | 16:11 |
| maco | andiolsi: compiz if you have a decent graphics card, metacity if you dont | 16:11 |
| Reckon | evening | 16:11 |
| devunt | How can I set the ubuntu default text editor? | 16:12 |
| andiolsi | i dont really need fancy graphics, i just want maximum visibility, so why waste it on window decorations and scrollbars? :) i would use ion if it wouldnt suck | 16:12 |
| maco | acicula: could be anything depending on driver quality... cpu might be waking up constantly for no good reason | 16:12 |
| acicula | devunt: preferences defaults or application defaults or something to that extend | 16:12 |
| maco | devunt: right click on a text file -> preferences -> open with and set a new default | 16:12 |
| mark2 | my situation is very weird, i have 3 hard drives, my windows harddrive, my linux harddrive and another hard drive, for some reason i could only boot linux when i booted from the other hard drive, it doesnt make sense, but i did manage to boot up lol | 16:12 |
| acicula | preferred applications, but it doesnt do the text file bindings | 16:13 |
| scunizi | mark2: grub was installed on the wrong drive.. or that drive was set to boot when you installed ubuntu.. | 16:13 |
| scunizi | !grub2 | mark2 | 16:13 |
| ubottu | mark2: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 | 16:13 |
| acicula | maco: ah i always assumed the suspend state effectively would cut power until poweron by the mobo based on some event, which admittedly requires something doing some processing somewhere i suppose | 16:14 |
| andiolsi | does 10.04 allready use upstart instead of init? | 16:14 |
| cwraig2 | mark2, i just missed you before but during the ubunut install it picks the drive it thinks is the primary one and adds the tiny bootloader code to that disk so when it boots it can point to ubuntu | 16:14 |
| acicula | andiolsi: 9.10 already did | 16:14 |
| andiolsi | acicula: ic | 16:14 |
| maco | andiolsi: yes, so does 9.10 | 16:14 |
| mark2 | so you think it pointed to that drive cause that drive is formatted as fat 32 instead of ntfs ? | 16:15 |
| gimmickless_ | scunizi: I am a moron. Accidentally plugged the USB into the phone jack without looking. Issue fixed. | 16:15 |
| maco | mark2: possibly its the primary drive according to the bios? | 16:15 |
| mark2 | thats possible | 16:15 |
| devunt | thanks, maco | 16:15 |
| acicula | andiolsi: old school rc.d stuff still lingers around though | 16:15 |
| poutine | gimmickless_, Don't forget to adjust the chin strap on your helmet | 16:15 |
| scunizi | mark2: LOL gimmickless_ I was going to suggest looking at the connections .. but figured that would be to basic. | 16:15 |
| andiolsi | btw, who comes up with those distro release names? are they related? | 16:16 |
| cwraig2 | mark2, no its got nothing to do with the partitions, its in the part of the disk before the partitions | 16:16 |
| poutine | andiolsi, A sad sad furry | 16:16 |
| maco | andiolsi: did you want the net install iso as 32 or 64 bit? | 16:16 |
| mark2 | i was kinda trying to partition linux onto one harddrive only, do you think these files on the hard drive are going to interfere with windows at all ? | 16:16 |
| maco | devunt: np | 16:16 |
| andiolsi | maco: already creating usb stick, 64bit | 16:16 |
| maco | andiolsi: oh you wanted usb? i thought you wanted net... | 16:16 |
| andiolsi | maco: yes, but the image was 70% finished at that point :p | 16:17 |
| maco | andiolsi: ah | 16:17 |
| BluesKaj | hey all | 16:17 |
| === cdr is now known as Guest67778 | ||
| cwraig2 | mark2, no they will not interfere, what happens is when your computer boots it reads the "boot sector"(a part of the hard disk) from your boot disk (set in bios) and that tells the computer how or what operating system to boot. | 16:18 |
| cwraig2 | mark2, the boot sector is a reserved part of the drive that is only used for boot information so it is not affected by partitions. | 16:18 |
| azertuio | hi | 16:18 |
| azertuio | i got 3 partition | 16:19 |
| KiiK | hi, how to check what terminal I'm using | 16:19 |
| mark2 | oh ok sweeet thanks, well for the record, linux seems to be running sweet! im digging it, and wow that into music kicks the ass of windows intro music, by sooooo much! thanks a lot for all your help guys, i hope that soon enough i will be able to contribute too,.. :) | 16:19 |
| azertuio | one is system installation partition second is unlocated third one is swap | 16:19 |
| andiolsi | if this works out okay i just might switch to full-time linux on my work laptop again. is there some community page for ubuntu on lenovo laptops? i remember having to do a _lot_ of configuring by hand to get buttons and stuff working properly | 16:20 |
| azertuio | i want to resize the system partition with the unallocated one | 16:20 |
| azertuio | how to do ? | 16:20 |

| Egonis | xangua: Yes, but Ubuntu 9.10 also had the same issue, I started using the new version hoping that this had changed | 16:21 |
| cwraig2 | azertuio, i would use run sudo gparted from the live cd | 16:21 |
| mark2 | cwraig2, just for the record, programs like mediaplayer classic, google chrome will i be able to use them on linux ? | 16:21 |
| netech | here's a silly question. I have a removable sata drive. I put the drive in and turn the key to lock it and spin up the drive. Now how do I know where to access it? Nothing new is showing up in my dmesg. | 16:21 |

| rdavila | Hi folks, I've a problem with an nvidia quadro nvs 140m video card on a ibm laptop model t61 15.4' | 16:22 |
| cwraig2 | mark2, the short answer is no but there will be equivalents med player classic = vlc and as for chrome i think there are linux builds around but i dont know | 16:22 |
| rdavila | I can't set 12800x800 resolution | 16:22 |
| rdavila | I'm on Karmic and using the propietary driver | 16:23 |

| rdavila | here is a screenshot of the video configurator: http://img52.imageshack.us/img52/5852/nvidiap.png | 16:23 |
| cwraig2 | azertuio, i dont think you can resize a partition that is in use, thats why you need the livecd | 16:23 |
| Spasysheep | mark2: Google chrome is available on ubuntu, and for most windows only programs there are equivalents available | 16:23 |
| randomusr_ | wow | 16:23 |

| Fifas | can anyone help me out? I have already posted a bug on launchpad (which I can kindly provide an url when asked for) for an openssh server on ubuntu 9.10 that freezes after sending username/password | 16:27 |
| acicula | andiolsi: could try the alternative installer and do a text based install(and hope the problem is then fixed) | 16:27 |

| Demonik | Fifas: well apparently I can't connect the second PC in any damn way | 16:27 |
| zigby | hello all | 16:27 |
| Fifas | can you PING the ubuntu machine? | 16:27 |
| Demonik | no | 16:27 |
| acicula | Fifas: gota link, how do you determine the server itself acutally freezes? | 16:27 |
| andiolsi | acicula: whats the argument at boottime for that? | 16:27 |
| aguitel | jimmyjh2, try to make sharig internet with the other card | 16:28 |
| acicula | andiolsi: actually i dont know, there is an alternative installtion iso thats normally used for that | 16:28 |
| acicula | andiolsi: though a boot option makes sense | 16:28 |
| Fifas | acicula, because it doesn't do anything. /var/log/auth.log initiates session and gives no more information. ssh client just stands there doing nothing. ssh proccess for the session holds on forever and nothing happens | 16:28 |
| h00k | akshay: see #ubuntu+1 for Lucid as stated in the topic :) | 16:28 |
| azertuio | well i got two partition system partition and data partition i want to install gedit and someother application on the data partition how to do ? | 16:29 |
| cwraig2 | mark2, all your regular software that runs under windows will not work under linux, software has to be specificly put together for linux. Some programs like firefox make both a windows and a linux version but you cant take your windows install files for firefox and run them | 16:29 |
| jimmyjh2 | aquitel we have tried but no luck | 16:29 |
| LtHummus | is there a gui equivalent of add-apt-repository? | 16:29 |
| acicula | Fifas: whats the users shell defined as in /etc/password ? | 16:29 |
| Fifas | acicula and this happens with various machines on the network, not just one. even an ssh localhost doesn't work | 16:29 |
| versek | i have a troubles with tty1 | 16:29 |
| h00k | azertuio: you have your /home on a separate partition? | 16:29 |
| Fifas | acicula bash | 16:29 |
| mark2 | i have to restart will be back now | 16:29 |
| acicula | Fifas: does the problem occur with different username/passwd combinations? | 16:29 |
| versek | i dont know what that mean | 16:30 |
| versek | someone can help me | 16:30 |
| Fifas | acicula: yeah. all users, all machines | 16:30 |
| Fifas | acicula: already reinstalled package with remove and with purge | 16:30 |
| acicula | so SSH is just not letting you log in , and hangs on authenticating? | 16:30 |
| azertuio | no i don't have /home on the data partition h00k | 16:30 |
| jimmyjh2 | so is there any easy way to set up an internet sharing because we have been trying for days | 16:31 |
| acicula | any particular configuration, can you reproduce when you boot a clean system from a usb stick? | 16:31 |
| h00k | azertuio: What do you have, then, for two partitions? | 16:31 |
| Fifas | acicula: no, it authenticates, it just doesn't proceed. I mean, I see session initiate on /var/log/auth.log | 16:31 |
| iceroot | !ics | jimmyjh2 | 16:31 |
| ubottu | jimmyjh2: If you want to share the internet connection of your ubuntu machine with other machines in the network see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetConnectionSharing - You may also use !firestarter: http://www.fs-security.com/docs/connection-sharing.php | 16:31 |
| acicula | but the shell never gets spawned? | 16:31 |
| azertuio | first one is the system partition where ubuntu is installed | 16:31 |
| acicula | anything done ith access controls like apparmor/selinux/capabilities ? | 16:31 |
| azertuio | the second is empty nothing for now | 16:31 |
| iceroot | Fifas: use ssh -vvv | 16:31 |
| h00k | azertuio: the best way to do that would be to have your / and /home on two separate partitions. Things you install will go to / and all of your user data will be separate on /home | 16:32 |
| Fifas | iceroot: freezes right after "entering interactive session" | 16:32 |
| azertuio | ok how to do ? | 16:33 |
| h00k | !home | azertuio | 16:33 |
| ubottu | azertuio: Your home directory is where all of your personal files are usually kept. For moving your home directory to a separate partition, please see: http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/separatehome | 16:33 |
| Fifas | can I provide you with the launchpad bug url? I'm not getting banned for spam? | 16:33 |
| iceroot | Fifas: have you modified the /etc/passwd on the target-pc? like adding zsh into it without have it installed? | 16:33 |
| Fifas | iceroot: I haven't, I'll try that | 16:33 |
| iceroot | Fifas: dont try that! | 16:34 |
| Fifas | ok | 16:34 |
| Fifas | lol | 16:34 |
| Fifas | I'm not an experienced user, but I've tried every darn thing to solve this | 16:34 |
| iceroot | Fifas: nothing in /var/log/daemon.log? | 16:34 |

| iceroot | azertuio: you cant with apt-get | 16:36 |
| h00k | azertuio: once you follow that tutorial to put your /home on a separate partition, everything will be installed to the / partition. | 16:36 |

PLZ SOMEONE HELP ME! | 16:37 |
| azertuio | is it possible to pivotroot ? | 16:37 |
| h00k | azertuio: I give 10gb for my / and the rest of my disk is my /home partition. I have never needed more than 10gb for my / | 16:37 |
| Fifas | iceroot: nothing. well I mean, I don't know if it's a coincidence, but I've tried a ssh login now and daemon.log has a few lines with ddclient.cache stuff | 16:37 |
| h00k | need-help-with-m: there's no need to shout, if someone knows, they will answer | 16:37 |
| Fifas | "skipping update" etc | 16:37 |
| azertuio | i mean sometime to ask to install package on specified partition | 16:37 |
| need-help-with-m | ok captn c00k | 16:37 |
| h00k | azertuio: no. | 16:37 |
| Fifas | iceroot: I don't think it's related | 16:37 |
| azertuio | and other time to install on sys partition ? | 16:37 |
| need-help-with-m | sry i mean h00k | 16:37 |
| azertuio | is that possible ? | 16:38 |
| ARTSIOM | ubottu: thanks! | 16:38 |
| ubottu | You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-) | 16:38 |
| iceroot | Fifas: and /var/log/auth.log? | 16:38 |
| h00k | azertuio: no | 16:38 |
| azertuio | r u sure ? | 16:38 |
| h00k | azertuio: yes. | 16:38 |
| Fifas | iceroot: already said about /var/log/auth.log ... it initiates session and gives no more log lines. log output is set to VERBOSE | 16:38 |
| azertuio | i got experience with linux firmware | 16:38 |
| azertuio | i used that one there was a time | 16:39 |
| azertuio | i don't remember | 16:39 |
| Fifas | by the way, shell for users is set to "sh" not "bash" | 16:39 |
| duffy | why exactly cant you mount an iso without sudo? i own the iso, and i own the folder its to be mounted | 16:39 |
| plitter | how do u make many folders from the terminal? i thought the command was either mkdir name{1-4} or mkdir name[1-4] | 16:40 |
| andiolsi | acicula: definitly a display port issue, dl-dvi works | 16:40 |
| iceroot | Fifas: i guess the default is /bin/bash but i dont know exactly because i am not using bash as login-shell | 16:40 |
| iceroot | Fifas: maybe try one user with /bin/bash | 16:40 |
| Fifas | iceroot: bash is set for the admin user, that also doesn't work | 16:40 |
| h00k | plitter: mkdir foldernamehere | 16:40 |
| Fifas | and I don't mean root | 16:40 |
| h00k | plitter: or mkdir folder1 folder2 folder3 folder4 | 16:40 |
| Fifas | so, I guess the shell is also not the issue | 16:40 |
| h00k | plitter: mkdir folder\ with\ spaces | 16:41 |
| acicula | andiolsi: k heres to hoping it gets fixed then :) | 16:41 |
| iceroot | Fifas: ssh user@host touch ~/foo -vvv | 16:41 |

| vol7ron | i'm not sure if this is the right channel to go -- set up Ubuntu for the first time and need some help with Apache | 16:41 |
| azertuio | iceroot: why i can't do with apt-get ? | 16:41 |
| iceroot | vol7ron: just ask | 16:41 |

| plitter | oooh, i can feell how people are avoiding the question i was asking:o:P | 16:42 |
| iceroot | azertuio: because its burned into the programs where to install | 16:42 |
| vol7ron | I'm getting-- apache2: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.1.1 for ServerName | 16:42 |
| Fifas | iceroot: again, it freezes right after "entering interactive session" | 16:42 |
| iceroot | vol7ron: then there is no hostname set in /etc/hosts | 16:42 |
| vol7ron | 127.0.1.1ubuntu | 16:42 |
| Fifas | authentication success, etc etc and then nothing | 16:42 |
| vol7ron | that's what's in /etc/hosts | 16:42 |
| iceroot | Fifas: hm but that command should not start a loginshell | 16:42 |

| vol7ron | along with the localhost line | 16:42 |
| mark1 | hi im back , seems that the geforce update worked, thank you | 16:42 |
| h00k | azertuio: you cannot do that, it doesn't work that way | 16:43 |

| azertuio | what ? h00k what doesn't work thta way ? | 16:43 |

| plitter | h00k: there is a way of making many folders with the same name and different numbers, just using a syntax like i wrote up there | 16:43 |
| vol7ron | iceroot: this is how it came installed defaultedly | 16:43 |
| mark1 | is anyone using duel screens, im having some problems, for some reason i can only get the desktop to stretch or clone i cant get them separated | 16:44 |
| Fifas | iceroot: anyway, even with the default user any command or session freezes in "entering interactive session" | 16:44 |
| iceroot | vol7ron: yes, you are connected to a network? | 16:44 |
| h00k | plitter: as far as that goes, I'm not exactly sure. Check the man page for mkdir (in a terminal, type 'man mkdir') | 16:44 |
| vol7ron | iceroot: I'm running ubuntu in a VMware on Windows7 | 16:44 |
| Dreamglider | isset, http://www.ipodlinux.org/wiki/IDoom | 16:44 |
| h00k | azertuio: installing things to separate partitions like that isn't how package management works | 16:44 |
| iceroot | vol7ron: so if there is no network you cant have a FQDN of course | 16:44 |
| iceroot | vol7ron: and also its only a waring, not an error | 16:45 |

| JetPackTuxedo | acicula, I couldn't find a setting for it. There was a "use system tray icon" setting, but it was checked. I have a systray icon, it just quits when I close the window, which it didn't do before. | 17:54 |
| acicula | do you have a systray? | 17:55 |
| freezway | Hey, I need help setting my tty resolution to 1920x1080 instead of 1024x768. Also I want to remove my splash when I boot. I am using Karmic and my /etc/default/grub file is http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=9172528#post9172528 | 17:55 |
| JetPackTuxedo | acicula, yeah, it's there. XChat is even it it, but when I close the window it quits instead of minimizing to the tray. | 17:57 |
| twisted` | yo, I got a HD4870 with 2 displays connected. I just configured it using the CCC to use Xinerama | 17:57 |

| ikonia | Engrish_Man: common cause is the graphics card not being configured correctly | 18:11 |
| wolter | Engrish_Man, it sounds to me you can disable some scripts in init.d, but I wouldn't know | 18:11 |
| Engrish_Man | im using only console (cause i want)... i wanna install xorg, i wanna be able to use it only when i do startx | 18:11 |

| An_Ony_Moose | hnd, menu.lst is obsolete | 18:17 |
| wolter | hnd, sudo update-grub ? | 18:17 |
| JetPackTuxedo | An_Ony_Moose, would that not do it? I think dist-upgrade would try to install 10.04 RC | 18:17 |
| wolter | hnd, that'll fill up your menu I believe | 18:17 |
| pshr | If any one ws successful in doing so or if you know kindly help me out | 18:18 |

| wolter | or something like that | 18:18 |
| inglor | the keyboard shortcuts for sound up/down work, but there is no volume control button | 18:18 |
| An_Ony_Moose | I'm pretty sure dist-upgrade just upgrades all upgradable packages using a certain method to select dependencies... | 18:18 |

| hellyeah | i do convert *.jpg foo.pdf do you have any kowledge about that | 19:29 |
| CloudLevi | >> Did I get ditched? | 19:29 |

| FiReSTaRT | h00k: i came here because my googling failed.. basically all xmbc/myth with moovida but i was sure there was at least one other major package | 20:13 |
| sebsebseb | FiReSTaRT: you can browse through each multimedia group, for example. ok will take a while, but that way you get to see all multimedia stuff that is avaialble from the repo. or just try search or maybe these sites to get an idea what is availalbe | 20:13 |
| CloudLevi | red2kic: It's so SIMPLE. I downloaded Pidgin THEN uninstalled Empathy. I googled "Pigin Indicator-Applet-Session" and found out someone else had the same problem... he didn't explain it in enough detail to know by just reading it, but really...very simple. | 20:13 |
| spuug | sup | 20:13 |
| h00k | FiReSTaRT: gotcha. I'm not sure :/ | 20:14 |
| sebsebseb | FiReSTaRT: most of the programs mentioend on these sites will already be in the Ubuntu repo. http://www.osalt.com http://www.linuxeq.com | 20:14 |
| h00k | CloudLevi: do you happen to be on Lucid? | 20:14 |
| CloudLevi | red2kic: So long as Empathy is installed, the IAC's controls are in use...install Pidgin with Empathy still on and there's nowhere for Pidgin's metaphorical gears to mesh. Uninstall Empathy, THEN install Pidgin...in my case I just had to reinstall. =D | 20:14 |
| sebsebseb | FiReSTaRT: so if your after other multimedia apps, those sites are a good start, to get an idea what is available for Desktop Linux | 20:14 |

| Mike__ | /usr/local/bin/php /home/username/public_html/scripts/your_script.php | 20:36 |
| sebsebseb | GodricBrutus: sound will sometimes be a bit odd in Ubuntu, since the way they do pulseaudio | 20:36 |
| llutz | Mike__: "which php" | 20:36 |
| iceroot | Mike__: tpye "which php" | 20:36 |
| poincare101 | Mike__: which php as llutz said (if I understand correctly) | 20:36 |
| goddard | poincare101 Open to multiple devices | 20:36 |
| inglor | Mike__: I'd ask in the default php channel, but it's pretty simple if I recall correctly | 20:36 |
| zamnedix | Ok, my disc drive reads DVD's, but isn't reading any of my DVDRW's, so do I need a different kind of drive? | 20:36 |
| Mike__ | thank you! | 20:36 |
| sebsebseb | GodricBrutus: well I guess what I just said is true, or at least half true | 20:36 |
| GodricBrutus | sebsebseb, weird. thanks | 20:36 |
| inglor | zamnedix: is it particularly old? is this a new problem? | 20:36 |
| iceroot | Mike__: also, use shebangs instead of using the php-path | 20:37 |
| poincare101 | goddard: that's pretty hard considering that most of the new bluetooth recievers are all SMD and you can't even see the parts. I would recommend you start from scratch if you want to DIY but I would mostly recommend just buyin' a better receiver :) | 20:37 |
| Mike__ | shebangs ? | 20:37 |
| zamnedix | inglor:I don't think it's very old, and I've never tried a DVD RW before, so it's not a new problem | 20:37 |

| xangua | yes | 20:39 |

| brad_ | sinisterstuf: The mouse buttons will not work either | 20:42 |
| ikonia | jeff__: you'd have to apply grub2 again to the MBR, however with ubuntu's new grub configuration file in /etc it makes using ubuntu as the controlling grub manager very very hard. It's a poor design | 20:42 |
| sinisterstuf | brad_: is it a usb mouse? | 20:42 |
| inglor | iceroot, ikonia, will it support virtualization? because this is the main reason I am switching (won't there be a kernel problem?) | 20:42 |

| inglor | drknzz, the main reason I am asking is because the reason for the switch is partially virtualization, which the new processor supports and the old one does not, will virtualization now work out of the box? won't it require some sort of kernel recompile? | 20:44 |

| Dr_Willis | !alien | sllide | 20:53 |
| sllide | i cant find any source | 20:53 |

| perhamlinux | ZykoticK9: in this list : ftp://ftp.free.fr/mirrors/ftp.ubuntu.com/dvd/current/lucid-dvd-i386.list I can see cdromupgrade script. are you sure that it doesn't upgrade using that? | 21:40 |
| hellyeah_ | one lan | 21:40 |
| hellyeah_ | ops sorry | 21:40 |
| sprung | perberos, of course, "you should be backing up anyway" | 21:40 |
| abenthy | o | 21:40 |
| ZykoticK9 | perhamlinux, you should certainly try it! I've never done updates with CD/DVD before - so i'm certainly not certain! Just seen the issue discussed many times. | 21:41 |
| gogeta | perhamlinux: i think even a live cd can do a upgrade with newer ubuntu at least when i out a cd in 9.10 it says so | 21:41 |
| gogeta | put | 21:41 |
| demifuror | hey guys, im using the "New Wave" theme on my current Ubuntu install. The thing is, im developing a java app, and Im trying to make the app window look just like the other windows in my install. I.e. top window border as dark grey, menu bar dark grey with white text etc. The thing is, only the top window border is dark grey, the mnu bars arent. im using swing for my interface. does anyone know how to get the window to | 21:41 |
| demifuror | use the current theme? does it have to be developed using awt or swt? | 21:41 |
| endo602 | if i have a raid set up | 21:41 |
| endo602 | on my windows 7 | 21:41 |
| endo602 | how do i get it to show up on my ubuntu | 21:41 |
| endo602 | its not showing up | 21:42 |
| perhamlinux | ok guys. thanks everyone . bye | 21:42 |
| Jordan_U | gogeta: perhamlinux: You can only use the alternate install CD for upgrading. | 21:42 |
| red2kic | demifuror: Try #java? | 21:42 |
| gogeta | Jordan_U: as i said if i put a cd in 9.10 that ubuntu it says package cd found maybe that has changed | 21:42 |
| Jordan_U | gogeta: That doesn't mean that it can be used for upgrades. | 21:43 |
| mark1 | can somone please tell me how to get compiz fusion ? | 21:43 |
| gogeta | mark1: you have it aruldy | 21:43 |
| mark1 | i dont think i do | 21:43 |
| gogeta | mark1: go to your prefs and aparance thats compiz | 21:44 |
| gogeta | mark1: unless you whant more advanced settings | 21:44 |
| red2kic | demifuror: Swing components don't rely on the native widgets of the operating system. Use SWT. | 21:44 |
| mark1 | cause i ran sudo apt-get install compiz fusion and it said E: Couldn't find package fusion | 21:44 |
| Jordan_U | gogeta: Though I wish I had scrolled back to see more context before perhamlinux left as the DVD includes the alternate installer (and all of main IIRC) and so can be used to upgrade | 21:44 |
| mark1 | gogeta, yea i want more advanced settings | 21:45 |
| gogeta | Jordan_U: i thought it did | 21:45 |
| sprung | ActionParsnip, what is your policy on Ubuntu Tweaks | 21:45 |
| gogeta | mark1: then you whant the compiz controle panael | 21:45 |
| mark1 | gogeta, how do i get it ? | 21:45 |
| mark1 | gogeta, i want the cube and stuff | 21:46 |
| gogeta | mark1: should be in the package list in sysanptic | 21:46 |
| Jordan_U | !ccsm | mark1 | 21:46 |
| ubottu | mark1: To enable advanced customization of desktop effects in Ubuntu: install 'compizconfig-settings-manager' or 'simple-ccsm'. If you install the latter, a new option will appear in your appearance properties - See also !compiz - Help in #compiz | 21:46 |
| gogeta | mark1: just look up xompiz | 21:46 |
| gogeta | compiz | 21:46 |
| gogeta | oh they renamed it i guess | 21:46 |
| sprung | Hey, if anybody knows if it's ok to recommend or help out with Ubuntu Tweaks please tell me, or is Ubuntu Tweaks another Audacity | 21:46 |
| mark1 | ok ill check thanks | 21:46 |
| xangua | sprung: another audacity¿¿ | 21:47 |
| sprung | wait that was the wrong word | 21:47 |
| xangua | well as fas as i know tweak is just a gui to make easier some tasks sprung | 21:47 |
| sprung | there was a package system that was out for Hardy Heron back a couple of years ago and this channel doesn't support it | 21:48 |
| sprung | Audacity isn't the word | 21:48 |
| sprung | it actually broke ubuntu if you used it | 21:48 |
| Flannel | sprung: Automatix, is the program you were looking for :) And, I recall a few people it caused problems with a little bit ago. So, I wouldn't | 21:48 |
| gogeta | sprung: do you mean cnr | 21:48 |
| ZykoticK9 | ActionParsnip, <OT> regarding the LP question yesterday https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/108299 - "great minds think alike, fools seldom differ" ;) </OT> | 21:48 |
| skyl | how do I see what version of ubuntu I'm running? | 21:48 |
| sprung | ah yes Automatix. Don't use that | 21:48 |
| Flannel | skyl: lsb_release -a | 21:48 |
| mark1 | gogeta i have added it but how do i access it now ? | 21:48 |
| sprung | Yes, i had to redo my whole system thanks to that piece of crap | 21:49 |
| gogeta | mark1: should apper in your aparance prefs | 21:49 |
| gogeta | mark1: or if you installed the other in system | 21:49 |
| sprung | OK so back to the question: Do we like Ubuntu Tweaks or is it another Automatix? | 21:49 |

| delac | mark1: hey, did you manage to do anything with the mtools? | 21:50 |
| skyl | Flannel, was the official release date not just a few days ago? | 21:50 |
| Flannel | sprung: In recent memory, there were a few people who it caused problems for a few weeks ago, so I'd stay away from it. | 21:50 |
| augustl | are there any ubuntu brander USB sticks out there? My googling only returns how to install ubuntu with a usb stick ;) | 21:50 |
| Flannel | skyl: No, not until Thursday | 21:50 |
| mark1 | whats up delac, not not yet i have been wokring on it with JetPackTuxedo for like 3 hours lol | 21:51 |
| mark1 | but making progress, lol | 21:51 |
| mark1 | the thing is that hides a file i need to hide a folder | 21:51 |
| gogeta | augustl: its simple to make a usb ubuntu if thats what your asking | 21:51 |
| delac | mark1: you are? cause i did take a look too, but wasnt able to do much anything... | 21:51 |

| sprung | you're a week ahead of what is considered "current" | 21:52 |
| sprung | you need to go to #ubuntu+1 | 21:52 |
| gogeta | augustl: take a ubuntu sticker and stick it to it lol | 21:52 |
| augustl | =P | 21:52 |
| red2kic | augustl: http://tinyurl.com/6kk4sx | 21:52 |
| andiolsi | sprung: ah, i see | 21:52 |
| sprung | your release comes out next week | 21:52 |
| augustl | oh nice stickers, that'll work | 21:53 |
| red2kic | augustl: Nevermind. I misread you. :3 (It's easy to install Ubuntu onto USB). | 21:53 |
| augustl | red2kic: no you didn't :) | 21:53 |
| augustl | that was exactly what I was looking for | 21:53 |
| gogeta | red2kic: he whants a stick branded ubuntu | 21:53 |
| red2kic | augustl, gogeta: Oh goodies. I thought he want USB with Ubuntu on it preloaded. :) | 21:54 |
| gogeta | red2kic: same effect i suppose | 21:54 |
| mark1 | delac, yea ill let you know if i get it | 21:54 |
| Jordan_U | augustl: Might want to wait untill stickers with the new branding are available. | 21:55 |
| augustl | Jordan_U: ah, good idea | 21:56 |
| qwerty01 | anyone knows where can I find examples of deterministic pushdown automatons? | 21:56 |

| soaliensoviral | hiexpo, so did you do any installation command where you had to give the root password? | 21:59 |
| ActionParsnip | hiexpo: ah, then you should recompile it and make a deb file, you can then uninstall the deb | 21:59 |
| ActionParsnip | soaliensoviral: there is no root password :) | 22:00 |
| soaliensoviral | ActionParsnip, yeah whatever, the password for admin privileges | 22:00 |
| gogeta | hiexpo: if you still have the compiled source you can do make uninstall to remove it then make a deb | 22:00 |
| hiexpo | yes i did | 22:00 |
| sprung | ActionParsnip, i was looking for your answer | 22:00 |
| sprung | ActionParsnip, regarding Ubuntu Tweaks | 22:00 |
| ActionParsnip | sprung: never used it | 22:00 |
| sprung | ActionParsnip, i want to know if it's ok to suggest it | 22:01 |

| radar3d | is there a batch file renaming program for Ubuntu??? | 22:01 |
| sprung | ActionParsnip, so this is something i want to be clear on | 22:01 |
| gogeta | hiexpo: i always used checkinstal to make my debs fourm a source compile | 22:01 |
| ActionParsnip | sprung: its not on the repo so i'd go with no | 22:02 |
| brontosaurusrexw | radar3d: i use Thunar sometimes | 22:02 |

| radar3d | is that in the repository? | 22:02 |
| sprung | ActionParsnip, i thought you were one | 22:02 |
| brontosaurusrexw | should be | 22:02 |
| radar3d | checking | 22:02 |
| sprung | ActionParsnip, i disagree with the way ops don't keep themselves opped in here | 22:02 |
| Jordan_U | tadhg: If there is any possability to install a different GPU you should, SIS cards are by far the worst WRT linux support. | 22:03 |
| soaliensoviral | Tao, unplug ethernet and enter "sudo tail -f /var/log/messages" in a terminal and hit return. Then plug in ethernet and post the kernel messages that result. | 22:03 |
| radar3d | brontosaurusrexw: yep it is | 22:03 |
| ActionParsnip | sprung: nar just a reg | 22:03 |
| radar3d | brontosaurusrexw: does it add ( ) to the filnames or can you choose??? | 22:03 |
| Jordan_U | sprung: It's actually the recommended way to do things on freenode. It's supposed to keep the tention down. | 22:03 |
| sprung | ActionParsnip, btw last year once and the year before about twice you may have saved my job | 22:03 |
| brontosaurusrexw | radar3d: what do you mean? | 22:03 |

| Salo | ok | 22:09 |
| ActionParsnip | mozir: boot to livecd and manipulate your partitions there | 22:10 |
| Jordan_U | sprung: First thing I would try is to see if you can get away with just using VESA and still have full resolution. I think the easiest way to test that, if you are using 9.10 with grub2, is to reboot holding shift to get to the grub menu then press "c" to get theo the grub shell, then run "vbeinfo". But then again I'm a grub person :) | 22:10 |
| soaliensoviral | Tao, can you paste it at pastebin or somewhere | 22:10 |
| tadhg | It says 01.00.0 VGA compatible controller: SIlicon Integrated Systems [SIS] 771/671 PCIE VGA Display Adapter (rev 10) | 22:10 |
| Tao | soaliensoviral: The whole thing? Or just the "Network Manager" thing | 22:11 |
| Jordan_U | tadhg: That last comment was meant for you. Sorry sprung. | 22:11 |
| soaliensoviral | Tao, all the lines that resulted when you plugged in the ethernet | 22:12 |
| Tao | soaliensoviral: I don't know how to transfer it over to this computer | 22:12 |

| soaliensoviral | Tao, oh i see. | 22:13 |

| Salo | question is: is there any quick solution, like system restore "built-in" or something, that i can access through command line? | 22:17 |
| Tao | soaliensoviral: Let me copy it down on a sheet of paper | 22:17 |
| ZykoticK9 | Salo, come to #ubuntu+1 | 22:17 |
| soaliensoviral | Tao, OK you should add it.Right click on panel and click "Add to panel" | 22:17 |

| litropy | Hi, peeps - I want netbook-launcher to show on only one of my virtual desktops. Is there a way? | 22:27 |
| sebsebseb | mandrew: I am half Swedish, but we still shoudn't talk Swedish in here | 22:27 |
| Root____ | Ok, I am out of Root now. | 22:27 |
| mandrew | ok | 22:27 |
| rabeak | it's just that i faced really subtle problem and can't figure out myself, so decided to go here to ask for help. | 22:27 |
| Tao | soaliensoviral: I did that command, but it said "Error: User name not found" | 22:27 |

| Frenger | hey all. i just built a computer and installed ubuntu 9.10 but whenever I log in with gnome the screen freezes and the keyboard and mouse are unresponsive and I'm forced to reboot. I can do everything just fine in failsafe gnome but I'd like to figure out what's going on and how to fix it. | 22:27 |
| aj- | mandrew, no, all I can do is boot from cd | 22:28 |
| soaliensoviral | Tao, what is your username? | 22:28 |
| Tao | soaliensoviral: *does not exist | 22:28 |
| Tao | soaliensoviral: What do you mean? | 22:28 |
| Root____ | Are you finding out what account I am using by my ident? | 22:28 |
| ZykoticK9 | litropy, if you wait until UNE the 10.04 version - I believe that's the default behaviour, and virtual desktops are locked out by default. No idea how to implement on Karmic however, best of luck. | 22:28 |
| soaliensoviral | my user name is "dan" so if I type "ps -u dan | grep nm" it works. | 22:28 |
| rabeak | MAYBE SOMEONE IS FAMILIAR WITH 0|0 ACK when using -0 function with aireplay-ng ???? I really know that my router is not too far away, as most of the faq points when facing similar problem. | 22:29 |
| mandrew | @aj ok but can you make a back up on your home folder from the cd? | 22:29 |
| soaliensoviral | Tao, type "whoami" at a prompt | 22:29 |
| tadhg | jordan u thanks buddy - ran "vbeinfo" lots of things on screen whats next? | 22:29 |
| kop | karmic I want to associate sounds w/ desktop events ie; window min/max and file operation start/stop . any easy way to do this ? | 22:29 |
| Tao | soaliensoviral: I believe my username is hunter | 22:29 |
| jerry_ | gnome clock applet refusing to display local time, but knows about my location (this is karmic.) | 22:30 |
| hiexpo | gogeta, - ok its installed in my local dir so what command do i use to delete it so i can reinstall it the right way | 22:30 |
| jerry_ | regional settings menu nowhere to be found. | 22:30 |
| soaliensoviral | Tao, ps -u hunter | grep nm | 22:30 |
| aj- | mandrew, yes, but I dont want to reinstall everything... | 22:30 |
| Frenger | anyone know what might be making my system freeze in gnome right after login? | 22:31 |
| Oer | rabeak, Attack modes -0 <count>, --deauth=<count> is a part of aireplay i do not support, sorry | 22:31 |
| gogeta | hiexpo: well if its just a sh script deleting the file removes it | 22:31 |
| rabeak | OK. | 22:31 |
| rabeak | do not support -0 | 22:31 |
| rabeak | same thing with aireplay-ng -9 | 22:31 |
| rabeak | using two wireless cards | 22:32 |
| hiexpo | gogeta, - yes what is the command to delete it rm rf? | 22:32 |
| mandrew | AJas far as i know all your setting is in the home folder so if you delete your fist partition and reinstall your good to go | 22:32 |
| rabeak | aireplay-ng -9 -i rausb0(wusb54c) mon0(ath card) | 22:32 |
| gogeta | hiexpo: for a single file just rm filename | 22:32 |
| rabeak | doesn't work | 22:32 |
| rabeak | but ... using -i mon0(as station) rausb) | 22:32 |
| hiexpo | ok | 22:32 |
| Jordan_U | tadhg: What was the maximum resolution that it showed? Did it match the native resolution of your screen? | 22:32 |
| rabeak | works perfectly | 22:32 |
| rabeak | so what the ..? | 22:33 |
| brianherman_hom1 | ping | 22:33 |
| hiexpo | gogeta, - its a foldeer | 22:33 |
| aj- | mandrew, no, that wont work | 22:33 |
| Jordan_U | tadhg: Also, your messages will only be highlighted in my client if they start with "Jordan_U" | 22:33 |
| gogeta | hiexpo: rm -rf folder | 22:33 |
| rabeak | i KNOW that drivers ar ok | 22:33 |
| hiexpo | ok | 22:33 |
| Jordan_U | !tab | tadhg | 22:33 |
| rabeak | 3.0.3 | 22:33 |
| ubottu | tadhg: You can use your <tab> key for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. | 22:33 |
| rabeak | can you help ???? | 22:33 |
| gogeta | hiexpo: as long as your in the same dir the folder is in | 22:33 |
| mandrew | @ aj ok | 22:34 |
| rabeak | there is one interesting thing | 22:34 |
| aj- | if I can just reinstall grub it would be fine, but it wont find the stage-files it needs on this knoppix-cd | 22:34 |
| tadhg | jordan U: Loads of numbers some are reapeated highest is 1024x768 and 1280x768 | 22:34 |
| rabeak | when mon0 is in monitor mode | 22:34 |
| rabeak | noise level is 0 | 22:34 |
| gogeta | hiexpo: or just trash it from the gui | 22:34 |
| rabeak | but when rausb0 is in monitor mode noise is -140 ... wtf ? | 22:34 |
| ikonia | rabeak: please control your language | 22:34 |
| litropy | ZykoticK9: I'm Lucid and netbook-launcher is on every desktop. Is there a way to change this? | 22:35 |

| Jordan_U | tadhg: You're not a dunce, it's understandable to be a bit confused when the first IRC channel you join also happens to be the busiest one in the world :) | 22:41 |
| jerry_ | gnome clock applet refusing to display local time, but knows about my location (this is karmic.) Regional Settings menu nowhere to be found. | 22:41 |

| harjot | how do i adjust the brightness of my laptop screen? I have a hotkey, but when i press it, it says brightness 0 %, no matter if i increase via hotkey or decrease | 22:42 |
| Sp3c1alK | How can I let an underprivileged user start a daemon via /etc/init.d ? | 22:42 |
| gogeta | hiexpo: rm -rf /usr/local/msf | 22:42 |
| gogeta | hiexpo: or go into that dir from your gui and delete it | 22:42 |
| tadhg | Jordan_U: thanks, I only came here because I exhausted everything else :) | 22:42 |
| gulp | a trullo | 22:43 |
| hiexpo | gogeta, - ok and that will not delete the other folders as well right | 22:43 |
| gogeta | hiexpo: gui being safer if your not famler with the term | 22:43 |
| gogeta | hiexpo: it should | 22:43 |
| harjot | how do i adjust the brightness of my laptop screen? I have a hotkey, but when i press it, it says brightness 0 %, no matter if i increase via hotkey or decrease | 22:43 |
| gogeta | hiexpo: if you wanna be safe cd /usr/local then rm -rf msi | 22:43 |
| hiexpo | got cha | 22:43 |
| Jordan_U | tadhg: First find out what the native resolution of your laptop's screen is supposed to be. Then boot holding shift and press "c" when you see the grub menu. At the grub shell run "vbeinfo" and see if your laptop's native resolution is listed in the output. | 22:43 |
| gogeta | forgot the / | 22:44 |
| rabeak | ikonia are you still there ? | 22:44 |
| Flannel | gogeta, hiexpo: you almost never need the -f | 22:44 |
| gogeta | Flannel: for a folder he would | 22:44 |
| gogeta | Flannel: unless he whants annoying messages for eatch file | 22:45 |
| ikonia | rabeak: yes | 22:45 |
| === u is now known as Guest33873 | ||
| tadhg | Jordan_U: How could i find the native resolution? My guess is its 1024x768 | 22:45 |
| Flannel | gogeta: no | 22:45 |
| rabeak | ikonia: here is my problem. I have two wireless adapters one is PCI(atheros) works perfectly fine and other is wusb54 with rt73 drivers | 22:46 |
| gogeta | Flannel: try it i have just usinf r it will ask for eatch file | 22:46 |
| Flannel | gogeta: Try it yourself, make up a directory with some stuff in it, and rm -r scratch-directory | 22:46 |
| Flannel | gogeta: I just did to verify | 22:46 |
| rabeak | i can perform everything with ath(wlan0) interface | 22:46 |
| rabeak | and rausb0(wusb54gc) acts completly strange | 22:47 |
| gogeta | Flannel: rather just use -rf then all that | 22:47 |
| gogeta | lol | 22:47 |
| rabeak | iwconfig rausb0 shows that noise level is -143 | 22:47 |
| rabeak | aireplay-ng -9 -i mon0 rausb0 WORKS OK | 22:47 |
| Flannel | gogeta: -f will hide problems from you, there's really no need to use it on a regular basis | 22:47 |
| biff_ | #lubuntu | 22:47 |
| rabeak | but the other way : aireplay-ng -9 -i rausb0 mon0 | 22:47 |
| rabeak | fails at everything | 22:47 |
| gogeta | Flannel: well i recmonded gui if he wasent good with the term | 22:47 |
| Jordan_U | tadhg: You can look up the specs for your laptop online but if you think it's 1024x768 you're probably right. | 22:48 |
| rabeak | i set these two at the same channel, no hopping | 22:48 |
| Losha | gogeta: I'm with Flannel on this one, drop the -f for routine use.... | 22:48 |
| rabeak | airodump works perfectly fine | 22:48 |
| Flannel | gogeta: "good with the terminal" has nothing to do with hiding potentially important information for no gain | 22:48 |
| rabeak | but with aireplay-ng CANT get any replays | 22:48 |
| ikonia | rabeak: why are you chaging the syntax of the commands | 22:48 |
| tadhg | Jordan_U: cool! ok so what next - once again i really appreciate your time when im prob doing your head in | 22:48 |
| ikonia | rabeak> aireplay-ng -9 -i mon0 rausb0 WORKS OK (ok - great so why are you then doing aireplay-ng -9 -i rausb0 mon0) ??? | 22:49 |
| rabeak | trying to test rausb0 as AP | 22:49 |
| rabeak | and it does not work correctly | 22:49 |
| ikonia | rabeak: have you set it up asn an ap ? | 22:49 |
| hiexpo | gogeta, ok got it thanks | 22:49 |
| gogeta | Flannel: well -rf has been rutene for a long time and i never herd of systems blowing up due to it | 22:49 |
| rabeak | asn an ap ? what ? :) | 22:49 |
| gogeta | not just with me | 22:49 |
| biff_ | omg i love lubuntu 10.4 beta 3! so refined! : D you gotta try it now! | 22:50 |
| ikonia | rabeak: if you want a card to act as an access point, you have to set it up as one | 22:50 |
| Flannel | gogeta: No reason to proliferate bad practices | 22:50 |
| ikonia | biff_: we are well aware of what's going on with ubuntu | 22:50 |
| Jordan_U | tadhg: If the resolution shows up then we'll change some small settings and hopefully get full resolution with the generic "vesa" drivers. If the resolution doesn't show up then we'll have to open up the can of worms that is the sis driver. | 22:50 |
| aj- | mandrew, tack for hjalpen. hare... | 22:50 |
| rabeak | no attack types work with RAUSB0 interface ! | 22:50 |
| tadhg | so will | 22:50 |
| hiexpo | Flannel, i wanted the command to remove the folder i asked for it | 22:51 |
| rabeak | thats why i'm trying -9 argument ;) | 22:51 |
| rabeak | mon0 works fine | 22:51 |
| ikonia | rabeak: why is that a bad thing ? | 22:51 |
| tadhg | Jordan_U: so will i leave the shell and check the display settings to see if i have other options? | 22:51 |
| rabeak | oh... | 22:51 |
| rabeak | because i can't go deeper | 22:51 |
| Flannel | hiexpo: rm -r will do that, you don't need the -f | 22:51 |
| ikonia | rabeak: so it's not responding to an attack, that's a good thing | 22:52 |
| gogeta | Flannel: i think most use it just being its a shorter command and as long as its not a system its not critical | 22:52 |
| hiexpo | ya i used rm -rf | 22:52 |
| gogeta | hiexpo: thats fine | 22:52 |
| rabeak | it does not respond to anything :) | 22:52 |
| rabeak | it captures frames from my router | 22:52 |
| ikonia | rabeak: maybe because the tool you're using is not intended for cards that use a different kernel module | 22:52 |
| Jordan_U | tadhg: No, you will leave the shell and modify settings in the text files /etc/default/grub and /etc/grub.d/40_custom | 22:52 |
| rabeak | but can't send anything | 22:52 |
| gogeta | hiexpo: flannels is the safer approch | 22:53 |
| gogeta | hiexpo: and gui being the safest | 22:53 |
| rabeak | Can you suggest something ? | 22:53 |
| tadhg | Jordan_U: cool ok so step by step how do i do that? | 22:53 |
| ikonia | rabeak: what are you actually trying to do ? | 22:53 |
| ikonia | rabeak: as in what do you want to achieve ? | 22:53 |
| Jordan_U | tadhg: I'd rather wait untill you've confirmed that the resolution shows up, because if it doesn't then you'll need different instructions. | 22:54 |
| hiexpo | yes i know i just wanted to make sure i was doing it right so i did not goof it ya know i knew the command before but just wanted to make sure it was right | 22:54 |
| Flannel | gogeta: it's not a shorter command, it's one extra character, how is it shorter? | 22:54 |
| === steve__ is now known as stephenplatz | ||
| rabeak | ikonia, trying to deauth myself :)) | 22:55 |
| tadhg | Jordan_U: sorry what would you like me to do | 22:55 |
| rabeak | to capture handshake | 22:55 |
| ikonia | rabeak: is it possible that your card is not open to the exploit your trying to run (in which case that's a good thing) | 22:55 |
| Jordan_U | gogeta: You are probably used to distributions like Red Hat Linux that errantly alias rm to rm -i thinking it will help users when in reality it just promotes bad practices like always using -f and being bitten when on a system that doesn't have such an alias. | 22:56 |
| rabeak | how that can be ? :) | 22:56 |
| steve__ | can anyone help me, I'm trying to install a printer connected to my desktop and keep on getting an error message that it is not enabled | 22:56 |
| rabeak | THAT CARD even can't SEND anything | 22:56 |
| rabeak | it receives all the frames around | 22:57 |
| ActionParsnip | steve__: what printer make and model? | 22:57 |
| ikonia | rabeak: is the card working ? | 22:57 |
| rabeak | but ceases to send any packets ! | 22:57 |
| rabeak | yeah :) | 22:57 |
| rabeak | drivers loaded. | 22:57 |
| ikonia | rabeak: ok - so it IS sending | 22:57 |
| steve__ | HP Laserjet 4000 | 22:57 |
| rabeak | ifconfig rausb0 up | 22:57 |
| Jordan_U | tadhg: Boot holding shift and press "c" when you see the grub menu. At the grub shell run "vbeinfo" and see if your laptop's native resolution is listed in the output. | 22:57 |
| rabeak | iwconfig rausb0 shows the interface | 22:57 |
| ActionParsnip | steve__: grab the latest HPLIP and install it | 22:57 |
| ikonia | rabeak: however it's possible the tool you're using is not compatible with the card kernel modules, not all wirless drivers have the same level of support | 22:57 |
| rabeak | can set it to monitor mode and everything else... | 22:57 |
| steve__ | where do I get that | 22:57 |
| tadhg | Jordan_U: yes what I imagine is the native is there, yes | 22:57 |
| ikonia | rabeak: ifconfig up doesn't man the card is working, it means the card has a kernel module loaded for it | 22:58 |
| ActionParsnip | steve__: use websearches, trust me you'll find it | 22:58 |
| ikonia | rabeak: is it on a network and working | 22:58 |
| rabeak | not at all. | 22:58 |
| steve__ | great thanks!!! | 22:58 |
| bp0 | when i make a new gnome panel it causes some weird problems, also move the bottom panel to the right and it has some graphical probglems | 22:58 |
| ikonia | rabeak: what version of ubuntu is this ? | 22:58 |
| rabeak | 9.04 | 22:58 |
| ActionParsnip | steve__: you'll need to mark it as executable and run it in terminal as user (not sudo) | 22:58 |
| ikonia | rabeak: ok - so if it's not on a network, it's not going to wokr ? | 22:58 |

| rabeak | what are you asking ? | 22:58 |
| ikonia | olvap: try in #mysql | 22:58 |
| ikonia | rabeak: I'm not asking anything, however if your card is not on a network, how do you expect it to send data ? | 22:59 |
| cbrookins | Does anyone happen to know what version of Samba is included in 10.04 server? | 22:59 |
| ikonia | cbrookins: join #ubuntu+1 and ask | 22:59 |

| cbrookins | sorry about that. thanks for your help | 23:00 |
| rabeak | no need i think :) | 23:00 |
| clocking | Hi | 23:00 |
| ikonia | rabeak: and as I said the tool you're using may not be compatible with that kernel module | 23:00 |
| rabeak | but i know people are using that tool on the same kernel module | 23:00 |
| gogeta | Jordan_U: what abought redhat | 23:00 |
| rabeak | Noise level : -143.... | 23:01 |
| rabeak | when i type iwconfig rausb0 | 23:01 |
| steve__ | sorry, how do I mark it as executable | 23:01 |
| Jordan_U | tadhg: Ok, then run "gksudo gedit /etc/default/grub" to edit /etc/default/grub. There should be a line like "#GRUB_GFXMODE=640x480" you want to remove the '#' from the beginning of the line and change the "640x480" to "1024x768". So the end result would be a line containing "GRUB_GFXMODE=1024x768". | 23:01 |
| switchgirl | hi i have an image that i'm doing red eye removal on, it's picking up the lips and thinks they are red eye what can i do? in gimp | 23:01 |

| ikonia | rabeak: ok - so it is connected to a network | 23:02 |
| Jordan_U | gogeta: What do you mean? | 23:02 |
| rabeak | so rausb0 puts out -143 noise level not connected and mon0 puts out 0 | 23:02 |
| axel_foley | how to update /proc/partitions. /proc/partitions doesnt contains all partitions showed by fdisk -l | 23:02 |
| rabeak | why it's so different ? | 23:02 |
| rabeak | no it's not connected to any network. | 23:02 |
| ikonia | rabeak: because they are differnt cards using different kernel modules | 23:02 |
| ikonia | rabeak: they behave in differnt ways | 23:02 |
| gogeta | Jordan_U: i used to run redhat untill that fedora garbage | 23:03 |
| Jordan_U | gogeta: If you need to use Red Hat I would personally recommend you remove their alias. | 23:03 |
| rabeak | can you direct me to some solution ? :} | 23:03 |
| steve__ | ActionParsnip how do I do that? | 23:04 |
| ActionParsnip | steve__: chmod +x file; ./file | 23:04 |
| gogeta | Jordan_U: well i cant help but be oldschool and not my fault debain thinks they gotta change the command sets every other dstro | 23:04 |
| ActionParsnip | steve__: replace file with the actual filename | 23:04 |
| steve__ | Thanks somuch | 23:04 |
| red2kic | Hello, could somebody paste the screenshot of CompizConfig Setting Manager (those who installed and use it)... For PUT plugin (settings). Thanks? | 23:05 |
| ActionParsnip | steve__: you will need to navigate the terminal to the location of the file too | 23:05 |
| ikonia | rabeak just search around for more wireless tools | 23:05 |
| Jordan_U | gogeta: It's not debian changing anything, debian keeps the default. Red Hat adds a non standard alias. | 23:05 |
| tadhg | Jordan_U: "gksudo gedit /etc/default/grub" i get error: unknown command 'gksudo' | 23:05 |
| rabeak | you think that might be due aireplay-ng tool ? | 23:05 |
| ikonia | in my opinion, from what you're said so far, yes | 23:06 |
| rabeak | not due drivers, bad usb wireless adapter configuration ? | 23:06 |
| ActionParsnip | tadhg: can you run: sudo nano /etc/default/grub | 23:06 |
| ActionParsnip | tadhg: if you use kde then change gksudo for kdesu | 23:07 |
| rabeak | what other tools can perform the same functions as aircrack package ? | 23:07 |
| sinisterstuf | how do you ask a program politely to quit at a certain time? | 23:07 |
| rabeak | killall -v name | 23:07 |
| rabeak | pkill name | 23:07 |
| rabeak | ? | 23:07 |
| sinisterstuf | by politely i mean not forcing it | 23:07 |
| ActionParsnip | sinisterstuf: use the 'at' command | 23:07 |
| rabeak | =] | 23:07 |
| gogeta | Jordan_U: isnt it gksu | 23:07 |
| Jordan_U | tadhg: You need to run that comm from Applications > Accessories > Terminal in the booted system. Not the grub shell. (sorry I should have made that more clear) | 23:07 |
| tadhg | ActionParsnip: I am in the core now do i try those in terminal or core? | 23:07 |
| ActionParsnip | gogeta: gksudo is a symlink to gksu | 23:07 |
| rabeak | ikonia? | 23:07 |
| tadhg | Jordan_U: thanks man | 23:07 |
| ikonia | rabeak: what ?# | 23:08 |
| Jordan_U | tadhg: You're welcome. | 23:08 |

| red2kic | Hello, could somebody paste the screenshot of CompizConfig Setting Manager (those who installed and use it)... For PUT plugin (settings). Thanks? | 23:08 |
| ikonia | I've no idea, hence why I said have a look around | 23:08 |
| gogeta | rabeak: thers a nice gui for aircrack called wepcrask | 23:08 |
| gogeta | wepcrack | 23:09 |
| ikonia | rabeak: to be honest, I've no idea why you are trying to crack your own network, and I'm not to comfortable talking about it | 23:09 |
| sinisterstuf | ActionParsnip: sorry I haven't done much controlling apps from the terminal but what I'm trying to do is to ask transmission to save and quit at a set time | 23:09 |
| ActionParsnip | tadhg: you launch the commands from terminal | 23:09 |
| gogeta | rabeak: just goole it | 23:09 |
| gogeta | 23:09 | |
| hellyeah_ | anathema empty | 23:09 |

| zenwryly | uit | 23:10 |

| === derp|studying is now known as derp | ||
| red2kic | sinisterstuf: Otherwise, if transmission-gtk does not have a command to exit politely. Kill it will do. | 23:10 |
| ActionParsnip | sinisterstuf: you can schedule using at to kill the process using HUP | 23:10 |
| gogeta | rabeak: well i got sick of all those command and found wepcrack gui it relly worked well | 23:10 |
| rabeak | about 150+ h trying to solve problem | 23:10 |
| Cornwall | sinisterstuf: Worst case scenario, you could set a crontab that will kill transmission | 23:10 |
| rabeak | problem is not gui interface...... | 23:11 |
| rabeak | i can type and read | 23:11 |
| rabeak | i'm familiar with schemes | 23:11 |
| steve__ | I keep on getting no such file or directory | 23:11 |
| gogeta | rabeak: well wepcrack kicks the card to monoter mode and sstuff for you | 23:11 |
| rabeak | but can't figure out why that device is ... | 23:11 |
| WebDawg | I thought kismet was the best. | 23:12 |
| rabeak | It can be done mannualy faster than opening any gui and clicking buttons... | 23:12 |
| jrib | steve__: what are you trying to accomplish? | 23:12 |
| rabeak | problem is not wep cracking | 23:12 |
| sinisterstuf | ActionParsnip, red2kic: the problem is i'm afraid if i kill it it won't save the progress, like when i just shutdown without closing it. how can i find out commands for transmission? | 23:12 |
| gogeta | rabeak: naa its a powerfull ui | 23:12 |
| tadhg | Jordan_U: done! do i save? or what would you like me to do next | 23:12 |
| ActionParsnip | steve__: if you type: ls can you see the filename? | 23:12 |
| rabeak | problem is that client(me) can't send any data from adapter | 23:12 |

| gogeta | raidghost: wepcrack is just the name lol it does all aircracks | 23:13 |
| jrib | !who | steve__ | 23:13 |
| ubottu | steve__: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) | 23:13 |

| rabeak | no hopping nothing | 23:13 |
| sinisterstuf | red2kic: thanks | 23:13 |
| rabeak | but that device just cant send any data | 23:13 |
| red2kic | sinisterstuf: I think it'll be saved. You could do a small test. | 23:13 |
| imanc | it just says "users already exists" | 23:13 |

| speart | i popped the 'Diamond Xtreme Sound 5.1' card into my pc running ubuntu 9.10 and im hearing subtle super-slow and quiet versions of sound out of my speakers, do i just need another driver? | 23:13 |
| ActionParsnip | steve__: please type the name of the person you are addressing | 23:14 |
| gogeta | rabeak: that means your card may not have the aircrack driver to inject | 23:14 |
| rabeak | ok. sorry | 23:14 |
| tadhg | ActionParsnip: i dunno if i was using right term, press shift when grub is loading then press "c" | 23:14 |
| gogeta | rabeak: my card can do it with the stock driver others cant | 23:14 |
| sinisterstuf | red2kic: i've been using the shutdown command to turn off my pc at 5am (when free internet stops) but when i turn it on in the morning the progress has been lost somehow. when it exits nicely it usualy says sending something to tracker, i don't remember what. | 23:14 |
| steve__ | [ActionParsnip]: no I can't see the filename | 23:15 |
| ActionParsnip | tadhg: not done that, i'll try it next reboot | 23:15 |
| red2kic | sinisterstuf: Stats. | 23:15 |
| ActionParsnip | steve__: then you need to change folder, are you using firefox and dos it still download (stupidly) tothe desktop? | 23:15 |
| sinisterstuf | red2kic: exactly | 23:15 |
| Jordan_U | tadhg: Yes, save. Then run "gksudo gedit /etc/grub.d/40_custom" | 23:15 |
| steve__ | ActionParsnip: yes | 23:16 |
| ActionParsnip | steve__: then run: cd ~/Desktop | 23:16 |

| iroquois | hello | 23:16 |
| speart | has anyone had their sound card produce slowed down and quiet sound and ever fixed it? | 23:16 |
| red2kic | sinisterstuf: I'd suggest you to install transmission-daemon. That way, you can quit gracefully. Also, I noticed there are "transmission --paused" ; That'd work just same as quit, I suppose? | 23:16 |
| imanc | hey guys - any ideas how to add a user to a group? | 23:16 |
| ActionParsnip | steve__: then run: chmod +x filename use tab to complete the filename after typing a few of the characters (case sensitive) | 23:17 |
| Jordan_U | tadhg: In this file you want to add a single line to the end of the file containing "set gfxpayload=keep" (without the quotes). Then save. | 23:17 |
| imanc | sudo useradd -G group user seems not to work :( | 23:17 |
| ActionParsnip | steve__: you really should learn the terminal basics, its really useful | 23:17 |
| pmbasehore | quick question on 9.10 nbr | 23:17 |
| sinisterstuf | red2kic: but would --paused work if the app is already running? | 23:17 |
| ActionParsnip | pmbasehore: ask away | 23:17 |
| zaxonspox | imanc tryed adduser and rest the same? | 23:17 |

| zaxonspox | imanc i have also got problems, while cmd's looks like the same | 23:18 |
| pmbasehore | but, 9.10 won't let me use it since it sees it as "mod3" instead of a separate key like 9.4 did | 23:18 |

| speart | imanc: try lowercase -g ? | 23:19 |
| imanc | OK | 23:19 |
| === fipu|Away is now known as fipu | ||
| Jordan_U | tadhg: Close that (and the other file "custom" that I assume was also opened). You accidentily put a space rather than an underscore. run "gksudo gedit /etc/grub.d/40_custom" and be sure to use an underscore ("_") | 23:19 |
| ActionParsnip | red2kic: i'd ask in #compiz | 23:20 |
| ActionParsnip | tadhg: use tab to autocomplete Jordan_U 's command ;) | 23:20 |

| jrib | vimalr: .app as in things for macs? no | 23:47 |
| Spasysheep | gogeta: hplib-toolbox doesn't seem to exist any more, and libsane-extras didn't help. the scanner is listed by sane as unsupported, so i think the only way to make it work is write a backend for it for sane or find a separate driver | 23:47 |
| vimalr | jrib: yes, okay. | 23:47 |
| Mike9863 | Does anyone know if there is a program like Coda (Mac OS) that is cross platform and works with Ubuntu? | 23:48 |

| ubottu | cage_raphel: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 | 23:50 |
| gogeta | Spasysheep: http://hplipopensource.com/hplip-web/index.html | 23:50 |
| Typos_King | cage_raphel: there isn't any :), you simply modify it by typing in :) | 23:50 |
| Losha | Spasysheep: also, try #sane... | 23:50 |
| cage_raphel | Typos_King, what command do i type? | 23:50 |
| dragonneus | !repeat | 23:50 |
| ubottu | Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org while you wait. | 23:50 |
| JoshDreamland | yeah, that worked XD | 23:50 |
| RuG | how do i make a desktop cube | 23:51 |
| JoshDreamland | Thanks much. | 23:51 |
| Typos_King | cage_raphel: if you're have gedit already running, you already issued it :) | 23:51 |

| cage_raphel | Typos_King, oh okie.. | 23:51 |
| ActionParsnip | RuG: you will need 3d acceleration from your video card | 23:51 |
| Typos_King | cage_raphel: I assume you meant, what file to modify :P, /etc/defaults/grub | 23:51 |
| cage_raphel | Typos_King, how do i check what version of grub i am running / | 23:52 |
| cage_raphel | ? | 23:52 |
| Typos_King | cage_raphel: and you need to run the editor in 'root' mode, so, run 'gksudo gedit' | 23:52 |
| Typos_King | cage_raphel: 9.1 uses version 1.97 by default, AKA grub2 | 23:52 |
| Losha | cage_raphel: grub --version will settle the matter... | 23:52 |
| gogeta | Spasysheep: that should get you up and running | 23:53 |
| Jordan_U | Losha: cage_raphel: grub-install --version | 23:53 |
| cage_raphel | Losha, thank u .. | 23:53 |
| gogeta | Spasysheep: you whernt kidding abought all those fake sites thats crazy | 23:53 |
| Losha | cage_raphel: note that if it says version 1.97, you have grub2. Thank the developer for that little bit of madness... | 23:54 |
| cage_raphel | Losha, it does not say version 1.97 | 23:54 |
| Spasysheep | gogeta: yh, i've never seen that many for something linux specific before | 23:54 |
| Losha | cage_raphel: what *does* it say? | 23:54 |
| cage_raphel | this is what i got .. " grub-install (GNU GRUB 0.97) " | 23:54 |
| gogeta | Spasysheep: all windowws vires to | 23:54 |
| donna_ | Having trouble with sound juicer and burning a cd onto mp3. Music will extract into sound juicer, then cd burner app but won't download onto mp3? | 23:54 |
| Losha | cage_raphel: Congratulations: you have grub1 ! | 23:54 |
| cage_raphel | Losha, is that a good thing or a bad thing having grub1 ? | 23:55 |
| Spasysheep | gogeta: HPLIP doesnt support scanjets. It seems windows is useful for something other than games after all | 23:55 |
| gogeta | Spasysheep: so rather then look for your printer i just looks to see if hp had a linux driver and there it was | 23:55 |
| Typos_King | cage_raphel: no biggies, either way, no need to update it either, fyi | 23:55 |
| gogeta | Spasysheep: according to the fourm it does | 23:55 |
| Losha | cage_raphel: grub1 is, in my opinion, better (easier to configure). Double check this by doing 'grub --version' | 23:55 |
| pmbasehore | augustl: xbindkeys keeps getting segmentation faults | 23:56 |

| red2kic | Is there a dictionary-cli or such sort? | 23:56 |
| cage_raphel | Losha, checked grub --version.. it says ... GNU GRUB 0.97 | 23:56 |
| gogeta | Spasysheep: yours is a all in one job isnt it | 23:56 |
| gogeta | Spasysheep: not a single fuction | 23:56 |
| Losha | cage_raphel: definitely grub1 then. Be thankful... | 23:56 |
| The-Moon | I downloaded gparted earlier, the iso file, i copied it to a cd and when i start up my computer it doesnt detect the cd, any idea why? | 23:56 |
| cage_raphel | Losha, .. lol | 23:56 |
| Spasysheep | gogeta: noop, single function | 23:56 |
| grmrgecko_ | Hello I need help to get ubuntu-desktop (gnome) on a ubuntu server 9.10 so I can vnc and manage my data on my server. | 23:57 |
| cage_raphel | Losha, Typos_King, thank u .. the reason i asked is coz.. when i try to open my grub menu in gedit.. the menu.lst is blank.. i mean it opens in the gedit .. but there is nothing in there.. | 23:57 |
| pmbasehore | this channel hasn't been very good anyway--i shouldn't have to ask my question 3 times before i get a response, then get fussed at by a bot when i get upset | 23:57 |
| pg1 | can anyone tell me if there is a GUI way to manually turn the fans on my laptop on? they arent coming on no matter how hot it gets and its freaking me out | 23:57 |
| gogeta | Spasysheep: well in the ubuntu forms it works for 1 guy | 23:57 |
| Losha | pmbasehore: here's your money back. Don't let the door hit you on the way out... | 23:57 |
| gogeta | Spasysheep: after installing that sane saw it | 23:57 |
| Typos_King | cage_raphel: .... grub1 DOES use menu.lst.... so, sounds to me you do have 1.97 after :P~ | 23:57 |
| Spasysheep | gogeta: forum link? | 23:58 |
| pmbasehore | Losha: that was uncalled for. if you have a problem with my opinions, please pm me. | 23:58 |
| cage_raphel | grub --version | 23:58 |
| grmrgecko_ | I installed it manually via apt-get on ssh but when I started vnc4server it only showed x11 and not ubuntu-desktop and I did reboot. | 23:58 |
| gogeta | Spasysheep: man i done closed it lol unsupported doesent mean it whont work | 23:58 |
| zaxonspox | cage_raphel: type in terminal locate menu.lst | 23:58 |
| red2kic | pmbasehore: Just letting you know. It's like asking SHIFT to bring up Firefox. It's not possible because of too many conflicts. It's a modifier. | 23:58 |
| cage_raphel | Typos_King, pls take a look at this .. just to confirm if i have done things rigt .. http://paste.ubuntu.com/422436/ | 23:58 |
| Losha | cage_raphel: either that or your menu.lst got lost somehow. Do you also have a /boot/grub/grub.cfg file? | 23:58 |
| zaxonspox | cage_raphel: if GRUB1 then menu.lst should be in /boot/grub/ | 23:59 |
| pmbasehore | pmbasehore: it works in eeebuntu | 23:59 |
| pg1 | can anyone tell me if there is a GUI way to manually turn the fans on my laptop on? they are on, but only at 2000 rpm. which is idle speed | 23:59 |
| Spasysheep | gogeta: k, well i may as well try it; it's not like it's going to break my system (famous last words...) | 23:59 |
| pmbasehore | they figured it out somehow | 23:59 |
| gogeta | lol | 23:59 |
| Typos_King | cage_raphel: grub2 no longer uses menu.lst, the akin file for that will be 'grub.cfg' however since 'update-grub' modifies it using templates, is recommended to make any wanted 'permanent' changes in the templates, /etc/defaults/grub, rather than at grub.cfg directlyi, though I've done it to grub.cfg and then I make a backup for anything :) | 23:59 |
| Semitones | heyo, is apt-get distupgrade the same as aptitude distupgrade? | 23:59 |
| red2kic | pmbasehore: I see. Try the EEEchannel / EEE forums. | 23:59 |
| cage_raphel | this is what i got when i searched for typed locate menu.lst | 23:59 |
