[00:00] I remember awhile back being able to open an FTP location from the gnome File Browser? How do you do this? [00:00] plum: anyway I suggest clean installing from a 10.04 CD, however download servers will be packed at the begining and so rather slow, downloading ISO on Saturday though will probably be alright [00:00] bsmith093: http://www.networkclue.com/hardware/network/switches-vs-hubs.aspx [00:00] is there urxvt-tabbed in hardy heron? [00:00] plum: and good to check your ISO once you have it [00:00] Gerrit: nope, am afraid, it used to do that for me too, when there was only 1 entry to boot from, [nothing to choose about], now I have more entries, and it does show with my 30secs timeout [00:00] !md5sum > plum [00:00] plum, please see my private message [00:00] look here [00:00] http://www.baidu.com/s?word=grub&tn=sitehao123&wd=grub [00:00] sebsebseb: not sure... i was in here earlier today with other issues from grub though. the thing is, i'm installing ubuntu to a removable harddrive, so grub would search for it and would not boot up if i didn't have the harddrive plugged in. so i just went to the snow leopard bootloader [00:00] time to run, see ya [00:01] what? [00:01] we're using libvirt here and for some reason, one of the domains fires up but wont ping at all. this just started happening this morning. anyone know why or where i might get help diagnosing this issue? [00:01] !grub > plum [00:01] plum, please see my private message [00:01] !grub2 | plum [00:01] plum: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 [00:01] Typos_King: Now I try to change the resolution and see what happens, brb [00:02] here have japanese? [00:02] plum: if that was a clean install of 9.10, you will have Grub 2 [00:02] grub 1.98 [00:02] sebsebseb: probably... it still didn't work though when i didn't have the other harddrive removed [00:02] Can anyone give me some advice on installing tortoise HG. It says "Error: Dependency is not satisfiable: mercurial (>= 1.4)", but I have a newer version. Downloading an older version of mercurial doesn't work either [00:02] i need to be able to use my computer without that harddrive too though [00:02] plum: what you can do on that is, save Grub to the external device MBR, and yes, it won't boot cuz it's looking for its /boot/grub files to boot with, and in your case it was on the HD mbr, while its files where on the external, thus the error [00:03] Typos_King: i did try that... i installed ubuntu on /dev/sdb, but grub to /dev/sda [00:03] it still would not boot up without that harddrive [00:03] plum: saving grub to the external device will load it 'when booting from usb' device [00:03] !usb | plum [00:03] plum: For information about installing Ubuntu from USB flash drives, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick - For a persistent live USB install, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent [00:04] Typos_King: my secondary harddrive is not USB though. it fits into my optical drive in a little compartment, directly to the computer [00:04] weird situation i know [00:05] plum: sudo grub-install /dev/sdb; will stick it to the 'sdb' MBR, and thus will bring it up when the usb is being booted from, then it'll find its files and all === Ken8521_ is now known as Ken8521 [00:06] grub still doesn't show :( [00:06] !fsck [00:06] fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo shutdown -F -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot [00:06] should I be asking in ubuntu+1? this is 10.04 [00:06] Gerrit: Yes. [00:06] Ok. [00:06] plum: even so, the 'grub error', comes up for having the grub loaded on the HD mbr and its files elsewhere [00:06] Hey, im dyin here. i just got a GeForce GT240 Graphics card and I cant find an appropriate driver. anyone know what I should do? [00:07] Its a 1GB DDR3 [00:07] audio question [00:07] audio and visual [00:07] in enemy territory my sound goes through the headset and not the speakers like i want it to [00:07] Typos_King: why does ubuntu install the files elsewhere then? shouildn't it install the files to wherever mbr you installed grub to in the first place? [00:08] yea, unless you buy the graphics card after you got linux and you want to run it thru hdmi and dont wanna reinstall ubuntu [00:08] thats my issue and it kinda sucks [00:08] is there any way to change the default im program and get the same functions with the mail icon? [00:08] plum: nope, the boot loader you get when you boot a machine, is the one loaded in the MBR of the 1st internal/fixed HD in the machine, regardless of how many there are, slaves or else, and partitions in them [00:09] dlow: you cant activate the nvidia driver via hardware drivers ? [00:09] gotcha... [00:09] plum: that's the boot loader you get upon boot from a machine, its files can be anywhere [00:09] well i'm gonna go change ubuntu to ext3 then and see how that works out [00:09] thanks for the help though guys [00:10] hey [00:10] firefox how use irc? [00:11] ywgx: install chatzilla I guess [00:11] thank you [00:11] question: for the past 30min i have been trying to install noscirpt on ubuntu lucid RC for firefox and no good [00:11] !lucid | aweoms [00:11] aweoms: 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 - Await the release in #ubuntu-release-party [00:11] Hey hey [00:11] noscript? hehe [00:12] awaoms: what's that addon for? [00:12] disables javascript [00:12] firefox [00:12] aweoms: Lucid is not out yet, support in #ubuntu+1 [00:12] disables js.heheh, good luck with that [00:12] well it lets your selectively disable javascript [00:12] aweoms: through addons.mozilla.org? [00:12] yes [00:12] Typos_King: actually it is pretty awesome [00:13] aweoms: you can disable css/java/cookies/flash why not do the whole shabang? why just js? [00:13] it is. [00:13] Typos_King: there'd be a lot less malware floating around if people had their javascript off by default ;) [00:13] I'm curious , anyone out there know a good way to spice up the visual effects in 9.1 more so then just setting it to extra? [00:13] aweoms: just use the normal version, not the RC. Addons ofter break in RC's and betas... [00:13] delpassion: install simple ccsm from the software center, it adds an extra option [00:13] delpassion: err yeah there is a compiz plugin settings/manager thing/tool [00:14] acicula: ahhh, such a myth and superstition, being a js coder myself, that's like saying 'wear a face mask and you won't get the flu' [00:14] thx :D [00:14] I messed with my partitions last night, increased root partiton, deleted /boot, moved /boot onto the root partition, and now i get grub error 22... how to fix? [00:14] I have USB speakers. When I turn my volume all the way up in ubuntu, the speakers go all the way up. When I go down 1 click, the speakers go down like 50% and they are nigh inaudible one click lower. So even though my volumn bar is 80% full my speakers get turned all the way off. I've used another set of USB speakers and I get the same results. [00:15] i could but i'd rather have noscript cause it takes care of all that plus allowes me to have certian site to be https always [00:15] 我要去上课了，数据结构（I will class ,Data Structure in C ++) [00:15] aweoms: I mean, use a stable Firefox build, not RC. [00:16] software college Northeastern University(china) [00:16] isn't firefox 3.6.3 stable on linux? or are you saying use stable ubuntu [00:16] !zh | ywgx [00:16] ywgx: For Ubuntu help in Chinese 您可以访问中文频道： #ubuntu-cn 或者 #ubuntu-tw 或者 #ubuntu-hk [00:17] aweoms: later Firefox will be in Ubuntu 10.04 releaed this Thursday [00:17] thanks [00:17] aweoms: eithe way, I'd advise against it, is overrated and overhyped, btw, if you run Lynx that'll set you up I guess, as much as if you don't want car accidents, don't drive a car, but hey [00:17] Typos_King: nearly all browser based or pdf vulns were exploitable either via js or by massaging the memory layout via js. admittedly you could use any programming language to do that [00:18] everybody get the last 3 updates? [00:18] Anybody here use the Acer Aspire One netbook with Ubuntu? [00:20] I just reinstalled wallpaper-tray and now I can't find it from the 'add to panel' menu. [00:21] Can anyone give me some advice on installing tortoise HG. It says "Error: Dependency is not satisfiable: mercurial (>= 1.4)", but I have a newer version. Downloading an older version of mercurial doesn't work either [00:21] aj00200: what ubuntu version are you using? [00:21] 9.10 [00:21] Hey, I have some blog content at http://www.kzenpragmaticist.org/search/label/Ubuntu that I think is worthy of inclusion on http://fridge.ubuntu.com/ - who should I ask about this? [00:22] what should the permission on /home/username supposed to be like? [00:22] aj00200: how are you installing toroise? [00:23] acicula: sure, sooooo, how do you 'work' that out? uninstall all browsers? remove all parsers? I mean, car accidents are part of driving, if don't want them I drop the car I guess, however that also drops my commuting too, soo is a trade off, like anything, I'm willing to acknowledge rather than criminalize [00:23] dhart: send an email to news@ubuntu.com [00:23] tsimpson: cool thanks I'll do that [00:23] acicula: I've used the installers off of http://packages.debian.org/squeeze/all/tortoisehg/download [00:23] Acicula: and from source on the last version of Ubuntu [00:24] aj00200: well you need to get the dependency from somewhere seems ubuntu 9.10 only goes up to 1.3.1 [00:25] acicula: you mean for mercurial or tortoise. [00:25] mercurial [00:26] I just reinstalled wallpaper-tray and now I can't find it from the 'add to panel' menu. [00:26] acicula: ok. I just got the version of mercurial with apt-get. So how do I get tortoise to work with the older version [00:27] aj00200: well you could force it , but the lib may be just to old [00:27] im sure dpkg has an ignore dependencies and install anyway flag [00:28] I'm running karmic on my laptop, and I have the laptop plugged in, and plugged in to an external monitor. I would like to close the lid on my laptop, but the power saving features don't offer me the option of "doing nothing" when I close the lid on my laptop, the next best solution is "blank screen," but that blanks the external monitor as well ... any ideas? [00:28] aciculd: well, where would I find a version to work with 1.3? [00:29] acicula: dpkg usually installs anyway usually, with a warning about the dependency and that no configuration was set [00:30] aj00200: that doesn't mean the app will work without it [00:30] ? [00:30] Hi! My USB mouse has jitter lag. How do I establish whether its USB lag, or the mouse dying? [00:30] aj00200: well if there is a version that works with 1.3.1 the tortoise website would be a start, or maybe look if they package the app for ubuntu specifically? [00:30] acicula: ok. I'll check and see if I can find that. Hopefully... [00:32] i have a ubuntu 8.04 system that hasn't been touched since it was installed. what're the chances apt-get upgrade does something bad? [00:33] midgetspy: midgetspy wait a few days so you can upgrade to the next lts [00:33] midgetspy: slim to none [00:33] oh nvm, upgrade doesnt touch distribution level [00:34] acicula: it should just upgrade the packages within 8.04, right? [00:34] hi, I logged in today and my volume control is gone, but i still have sound. I tried to re-add the volume control but it's not longer on the list, wihch i guess means gnome thinks its still there... what can I do? [00:34] midgetspy: correct [00:35] midgetspy: you need to do-release-upgrade or update-manager-d(GUI) to update to a new release [00:35] node357: what ubuntu version? [00:35] 9.10 i think [00:35] !version | node357 [00:35] node357: To find out what version of Ubuntu you have, type « lsb_release -a » in a !shell - To know the available version of a package, « apt-cache policy » [00:36] jrib, it says Ubuntu 9.10 [00:36] thank for that command, didn't know about it [00:37] Typos_King: the idea about noscript is to only selectively disable javascript, i have it on for my standard sites, but off for google, ad pushers etc [00:38] midgetspy, if you wait until after Thursday you can upgrade from 8.04 to 10.04 directly [00:38] hm ... i've got i tfigured out ... it envolved using gconf-editor to change the settings for power-manager-gnome, because the "nothing" option isn't available in the gui. [00:39] jrib, I was here yesterday asking how to get rid of pulse audio because it was making loud distorted noises... I uninstaled the pulse audio packages.. did that ruin the volume mixer, too? [00:39] midgetspy: 8.04 will be better than 10.04 in certain ways, also apparantly a new LTS isn't that stable untill at least a point release. 8.04 will run out of support on the desktop April next year [00:39] wow, that worked better than i expected [00:39] node357, if you're missing the volume control from the panel - this is normal if you've removed Pulse [00:40] speaking of which ... food for thought here, isn't the way gnome configuration is done exactly one of the problems that's wrong with windows? If an obscure option isn't available in a gui, you have to go hack around in some central "registry" of configuration options? [00:40] i found out where there is an option to create a /boot and used a partition on /dev/sda for it. now i can boot up fine without my sdb [00:40] ZykoticK9, so I can have distorted sound or no volume mixer :( [00:40] node357, just the built in Gnome panel mixer is affected [00:40] sebsebseb: it's a server which is longer, correct? [00:40] eurythmia: no. It's the applications responsibility to expose configuration options to the user. gconf is more than just a place with hidden settings [00:41] 's [00:41] eurythmia: well the amount of configuration options far exceeds the amount of checkboxes that can be put on the screen [00:41] sebsebseb, think about the next LTS is based in debian sid (unstable release) [00:41] okay, thanks jrib and ZykoticK9 .. I will find another mixer to use [00:41] midgetspy: yes the server version's of a LTS release get five years of support [00:42] !lts | midgetspy [00:42] midgetspy: LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server. The current LTS version of Ubuntu is !Hardy (Hardy Heron 8.04). The next LTS release is scheduled to be !Lucid (Lucid Lynx 10.04) [00:42] jrib, that doesn't disagree with what I said ... except for the part about gconf-editor being more ... how is it more (not trolling, just curious) [00:42] acicula, I do agree ... but drop-down menus shouldn't exclude options ;) [00:42] eurythmia: but gnome configuration is done through apps in the menus :/ [00:42] How to let apache2 reconfigure itself to its default values and rebuild its default files? [00:43] now my shortcut keys for volume up/down don't work either [00:43] Hi, my network-manager applet is confused. when my hardware wireless switch is turned ON, the "wireless networks" box is grayed out. When I turn my hardware wireless switch OFF, the wireless networks box is enabled and checked, but can't find any networks. What gives? [00:43] jrib, gnome-power-manager is one of them, but the gui lacks options, and hence, gconf-editor is required. [00:43] SoLiTuDe: remove with --purge and reinstall? [00:43] SoLiTuDe: purge the package responsible for whatever file it is you want to reinstall [00:43] eurythmia: right, that means work needs to be done on gnome-power-manager to expose them to the user [00:43] Mmm oki thx. [00:44] One more question, does it reconfigure /etc/apache2 too ? [00:44] night folks! [00:45] SoLiTuDe: what is "it" in your sentence? [00:45] I did choose to hide my main top menu. I wonder ho do I show it back? [00:45] jrib, this is true ... unfortunately, it's an option that was there before, so this is a regression ... also related to bug 390816, which apprently there is no intent to fix at the moment :/ [00:46] I have a question [00:46] !ask | dominicdinada [00:46] dominicdinada: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [00:47] could someone help me on that please? [00:48] !ask | kennyG [00:48] kennyG: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [00:48] I did choose to hide my main top menu. I wonder ho do I show it back? [00:49] Umm, I downloaded lucid lynx rc I *thought*, I set to 64 bit download and I get/install karmic... [00:49] eurythmia, got it ? [00:49] kennyG, one approach is to do "rm -rf ~/.gnome2" then log out and back in ... but that's rather heavy handed ... it will remove *all* of your gnome, and gnome application settings. [00:49] is there a way I can update to lucid? [00:49] rabidweezle: #ubuntu+1 for lucid support [00:49] rabidweezle, google it. [00:49] !panels | kennyG [00:49] kennyG: To reset the gnome panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » [00:50] eurythmia: try not to do that, just point them in the right direction at least [00:50] How do I open Teminal without main menu? [00:50] ZykoticK9, did not know about that ... looks much better. [00:50] kennyG: double click on /usr/bin/gnome-terminal in nautilus I guess. Or alt-f2, gnome-terminal [00:50] jrib, sorry, I know that the answer is available on the wiki ... a simple google search ... I'll keep +1 in mind for next time. [00:51] ok, I will try that right now. Thank you guys! [00:51] jrib, I was on the Alt-F2 ... guess you type faster than me ;) [00:53] hello everyone ... i assume at least some of you folks know the game "gtkatlantic" ? ... i wanted to know the following thing ... i saw it on a website ... and the source-code can be downloaded there too ... can you tell me what i have to do to compile it for two different windows-machines? [00:54] !windows | mado [00:54] mado: For discussion on Microsoft software, or help with same, please visit ##windows. See http://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bug/1 http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm and /msg ubottu equivalents [00:54] sebsebseb: that's a "windows"-issue?

[00:55] i thought compiling and source-code relate to linux :) [00:55] sebsebseb: i see *nods* [00:55] mado, if you want to be *really* technical, it's a toolchain issue ... you need to learn how to use one ... but it is definitely more of a "windows" problem thant a linux one. [00:55] dhart: sorry news@lists.ubuntu.com [00:56] eurythmia: i see ... ok ... but i will stay in here too to ask you something about ubuntu soon too :) [00:56] hey guys, odd question but can anyone help me with Windows 7? :D [00:56] mado, they would be better able to help you set up and use the toolchain to compile the game, and the appropriate libs. [00:56] Danak, if it's not about wubi, no. [00:57] :P [00:57] :( [00:57] and what do i have to do to compile it for a computer running ubuntu? eurythmia sebsebseb [00:57] !compile | mado [00:57] mado: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first) [00:58] dhart: actually it's not even that :p [00:58] dhart: ubuntu-news-team@lists.ubuntu.com [00:59] ok ... thank you sebsebseb ... i'll have a look at it a bit later ... if i run into some problems i'll have to ask in here again [00:59] mado: ok np [00:59] sebsebseb: it's because i'm all new to all this :) [01:00] mado, well, welcome ... hopefully we'll have you up to speed soon ;) [01:00] It appears the two Window Managers (default Metacity, and Compiz) are working whenever they feel like [01:00] hey , how do i figure out if i've got the 32 or 64 bit os installed? [01:00] mado: That's what I thought [01:01] merlin2049er, uname -a [01:01] nawk: If you set to normal or extra then relogin, does the settings stick? If not, you might have a permissions issue in ~/.gconf* [01:01] merlin2049er, uname -m is a little easier [01:01] hi [01:01] has any one used wubi? [01:01] ! hi | ray_ [01:01] ray_: Hi!

[01:01] thanks [01:01] soreau have you used it i know what it is [01:02] anyone using teamviewer for ubuntu [01:02] and dose it work on windows 7 [01:02] soreau, the symptom is that on my first login, after bootup, the mouse keys, windows, and some keyboard features fail to respond as if the Window Manger is dead [01:02] mado, just a little joking around ... partially ... getting *really* into linux takes some time and some effort, but hopefully, with some help and some aptitude, it won't take you long to get comfortable with things. [01:03] ray_, i don't use WUBI, if it doesn't work on Win7 you could use VirtualBox instead. But a native install is better then both of these options. [01:03] soreau: the problem seem to go away after I relogin [01:03] tee-hee ... aptitude. [01:03] zy o ok [01:03] soreau: i.e., restart /etc/init.d/*dm [01:04] i really like devede for replacing convertxtodvd for windows, i think it acualy does a better job creating images, then burn it with brasero. does a job job [01:04] well eurythmia ... i have used ubuntu already a bit ... and i do like it ... i just hope the new version runs better than the old one === ShazbotMcBusy is now known as shazbotmcnasty [01:04] mado, from what I've seen, it's nice. I'm looking forward to the release so that I can install an LTS release on my laptop. [01:05] with gnome2-globalmenu and docky, ubuntu is great :) [01:05] soreau: I have a feeling you could help me out. I was in xorg just now, and they couldn't help me with this. another related oddity I want to share is that, whenever I come back from a screen-saver session, "visual effort" falls back to "None" mode [01:05] ... not to mention the 25" monitor ... it makes my eyes bleed with pleasure.

[01:08] point being ive found excellent alternatives for my windows applications. [01:08] does anybody in here have their preyproject.org software running in their machine [01:09] mado, ah, yeah ... I adopted 9.10 during the beta phase ... there were, of course, plenty of growing pains, but most things are now worked out.

[01:16] dominicdinada: just ask [01:16] * eurythmia facepalms [01:16] !ask | dominicdinada [01:16] dominicdinada: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [01:16] Hillshum, that's what confused him/her/it in the first place ... they assumed that !ask was how you asked a question. [01:17] I am using ubuntu 9.10 and decided to give the kubuntu-desktop a try so when i opened up kubuntus kde all of a sudden my ndiswrapper does not work for my bcm4306 which worked in ubuntu [01:17] Hm, should /var/log/cupsd be -rw-r-----? [01:17] for some reason, after following the disrections, apache is still not gziping content [01:17] I have mod_deflate [01:17] it has a load and a conf link [01:18] but its still not working [01:18] so when I look for the interfaces i do not have access to the wlan0-2 interfaces nor my ndiswrappers [01:18] puff: directories need to be +x to be readable [01:18] any suggestions on how to debug this? [01:18] puff: well to be traversable [01:18] acicula, are you *sure* ? [01:18] dominicdinada: #kubuntu might help you more. [01:19] eurythmia: chmod -x /tmp and try running an ls [01:19] acicula, on it :) [01:19] ok now at the same token when i login to the ubuntu gnome desktop it also killed my wlan interfaces as well [01:20] acicula, is it okay if I paste you 3 lines of output in a pm? [01:20] how do i reset or recover my private key passphrase [01:20] sure [01:20] it looks like youre *sort of* right. [01:20] :) [01:21] might be a bug in ls [01:21] eurythmia: now run ls foo/3 [01:21] err foo/2 [01:21] not familiar w/ xchat. how can i tell if people are actually logged onto a channel if there's no typing going on? i logged into irc.freenode.net/tryton and there are users listed, but no one's typing or answering my questions... [01:21] i have the keypair i just can't for the life of me remember the password to access it to be able to decyrpt or encrypt or sign things [01:21] ahh ... interesting. That is definitely not the behaviour I would have expected ... I wonder if it does that on my qnx box ... [01:21] bruce: only by querying individual users idle times afaik [01:22] * eurythmia makes a note to try that in qnx when he gets to work in the morning. [01:22] whats the nickserv command to have my nickname password emailed to the email address associated with it? [01:22] Bodsda...afaik? [01:22] I need help, I can't boot a lappy I just installed Karmic on. I have access to the grub prompt, but not much else. I've read the grub documentation and also the "can't boot" thread on ubuntuforums, anybody? [01:22] bruce, "as far as i know" [01:22] bruce: sorry, as far as I know [01:22] ennu /nickserv help [01:22] thx. that makes sense. [01:23] ennui: I dont know myself, but the guys in #freenode would be able to help [01:23] is there anyone here that knows anything about a program called Tryton? [01:23] The error I get when trying to boot is "error: no such device" then what appears to be a UDMI string === TannerF-hw is now known as TannerF [01:23] puff u still here? [01:24] hmmm no one in kubuntu is answering :( [01:24] hmm. guess not. thx for your help, tho. [01:25] what's up? [01:25] dominicdinada: what's the question I'll try to answer [01:25] dominicdinada: be patient [01:25] do servers still split? [01:25] !root > root_ [01:25] Howdy all, I have samba setup on two of my computers running 9.10 and when I share a folder on one system the second cannot see it - both of them are connected to the same network. Any suggestions? [01:25] root_, please see my private message [01:25] Alcor: yes [01:25] Alcor: yes, not as often as they used to but yes [01:25] starting to learn ethical hacking for my college course [01:26] thx [01:26] dominicdinada: I'm running kubuntu 9.10 now [01:26] root_, oops ... wrong message ... sorry ... it's a bad idea to be root on irc. [01:26] !ot | root_ [01:26] root_: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! [01:26] ok [01:26] I am using ubuntu 9.10 and decided to give the kubuntu-desktop a try so when i opened up kubuntus kde all of a sudden my ndiswrapper does not work for my bcm4306 which worked in ubuntu [01:26] so when I look for the interfaces i do not have access to the wlan0-2 interfaces nor my ndiswrappers [01:26] ok now at the same token when i login to the ubuntu gnome desktop it also killed my wlan interfaces as well [01:26] puff you still here? [01:26] how do I learn about more about Back Track 4? [01:26] remote-exploit.org ?/?? [01:26] root_: /join #backtrack-linux [01:27] oh lol [01:27] Hi guys. Does anyone have any experience with activating the optical output (SPDIF) on my soundcard? Im a linux greenie. Please msg me, and i will tell you more about my problem [01:27] root_: I suspect you will be told about running irc as root [01:27] IdleOne: or shown :) [01:27] I tried bt4 but was not very impressed with it myself [01:28] I'm a Windows to Linux refugee [01:28] root_: unless you have a support question relating to Ubuntu, can you take refuge in the offtopic channel please [01:28] dominicdinada: so you've got both ubuntu and kubuntu installed and you switch between them on boot.. when you do that it typically asks or there's a place to "tick" that says something to the effect of "run kubuntu with a gtk backend (or gnome) or something to that effect".. if that's the case try running either with the matching backend and see what happens. [01:28] still learning how to do that @ Bodsda [01:28] I am not going to Windows 7, no matter what Bill says... [01:29] root_: /join #ubuntu-offtopic [01:29] Alcor: please take offtopic chat to #ubuntu-offtopic [01:30] Scunizi: ok next boot i will give it a try but the last line of my statement said now when I log into Gnome the wifi is killed as well [01:31] dominicdinada: you're probably also still using network manager.. I found issues with it on kubuntu and occationally on ubuntu.. I switched to WiCD.. much easier to deal with wireless. [01:31] dominicdinada: heh, I had something like that, I stupidly did - apt-get remove network-manager; apt-get install wicd wicd-client [01:31] Can u use a wifi dongle to gain entrance into your linux box from another terminal? [01:32] Bodsda: I think that if you just intsall wicd apt automatically removes network manager [01:32] Scunizi: yeah it does... I wasnt thinking though :) [01:32] hi soreau [01:32] Yes it sucks Bodsda when I first loaded 9.10 My built in wifi wasnt working and removed it by accident. [01:33] dominicdinada: you might also look at your resolv.conf.. network manager may have changed it for the worse.. or possibly it got changed when switching to kubuntu.. [01:33] dominicdinada: well, all my issues were self-inflicted, but I feel your frustration [01:33] Scunizi: I will take a look [01:34] Actually if I recently dumped wine would that have any effect seening as though I had my bcm4306 installed through ndiswrapper to begin with ? [01:34] dominicdinada: there's another networking file that now takes over some of what resolv.conf use to.. unfortuantely I"ve forgotten what it's called :/ [01:34] nite all . convo well too techy for me, but cheers anyway. [01:35] hey all... [01:35] hey [01:35] wil reimporting my backed up private key reset its password [01:35] Hey Losha: have some ?'s about that cat commnd [01:35] is it true that Lucid is coming 2moro? [01:35] !countdown [01:35] does anyone here normalize/adjust gain on their mp3's? What program should I use?? [01:36] !countdown === patrick is now known as Guest36664 [01:36] dominicdinada: if ndiswrapper uses wine then yes that's a possibility most likely [01:36] !countdown [01:36] !lucid [01:36] 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 - Await the release in #ubuntu-release-party [01:36] steve__: don't normalize [01:36] Can u use a wifi dongle to gain entrance into your ubuntu linux box from another terminal? [01:36] evilbug: why not? [01:37] steve__: normalizing adds digital noise which is not a big deal when working with hd audio files but with a compressed format such as mp3 is quite destructive. [01:37] Scunizi: my resolv.conf looks ok... [01:37] steve__: unless you don't really care about quality too much. [01:37] dominicdinada: the other file is called /etc/networks/interfaces and should contain "auto lo" and the next line "iface lo inet loopback" [01:37] my ubuntu won't boot anymore. i'm running xubuntu 9.10 with the latest generic kernel. what happens is at initial boot i now get a list of all of the installed kernels but none of them are bootable nor do they load the cmd line in recovery mode. how can i fix this? [01:37] evilbug: thanks a lot, I very much DO care about the quality :) [01:37] Oh ya, Let me check that I just grabbed the wine package again [01:38] dominicdinada: there's also this how-to to possibly get you back up and running.. http://linuxers.org/howto/how-install-drivers-bcm43xx-chipset-based-wireless-cards-ubuntu [01:38] steve__: sure. just turn up the volume OR use your media player to adjust gain so that every track is at a consistent level. [01:38] Hello. I am missing my C library man pages. How do I get them installed/found? [01:38] evilbug: I think that your grub settings are broken, you may need to boot a live CD, mount your directory, and find out the information required for grub [01:39] so guys (and gals) I'm trying to use the cat command to join 3 files (xaa, xab, xac) via cat xaa xab xac Antonio.vdi [01:39] dominicdinada: gotta run for a while.. good luck [01:39] steve__: care to run me through that a little bit? [01:39] Scunizi: no offence but that post was more problematic than it was helpful. You would almost thing the broadcom driver library would be built into distro's considering how common they once were [01:39] evilbug: Ya my problem is that I burned a CD and 2 albums are lower volume than the rest. [01:39] when I do this, a ton of "gibberish" gets outputed on the term screen for like 10 seconds, and then it closes down [01:39] think* [01:39] Scunizi: Thanks [01:40] antonio_: cat xaa > Antonio.vdi; cat xab >> Antonio.vdi; cat xac >> Antonio.vdi? [01:40] anyone know what the status of 10.4 is? is the server edition of the RC fairly stable? [01:40] is that how to do it? [01:40] Bodsda: is that the correct format? [01:40] Bodsda: the >> appends to end of file? [01:40] IdleOne, >> appends yes [01:40] after upgrading from Karmic to Lucid via apt-get dist-upgrade, my system leaves me at a shell telling me something about my uuid does not exist. any ideas on how to work around this? [01:40] antonio_: it will work - one > creates a new file with the output, two > (>>) appends to a file [01:40] evilbug: Boot your live CD first. After this you will want to mount your drive... now it's hard for me to tell you what partition is your boot partition since its different system to system. What I normally do is make a directory for each result of: ls /dev/sd* (you will be mounting partitions... such as /dev/sda1. /dev/sda2. /dev/sdb1. etc) [01:40] g-ram: would you like the magic 8 ball or the tarot prediction [01:40] Hi all, need help. Can't boot a lappy I just installed Karmic on. I have access to the grub prompt, but not much else. I've read the grub docs and also the "can't boot" thread on ubuntuforums, anybody? [01:40] IdleOne: yeah [01:41] steve__: in that case there's nothing you can do. usually disc making apps ask you if you'd like to normalize volume at burn but once the disc is made... [01:41] ZykoticK9: Bodsda thanks :) good to know [01:41] IdleOne: no worries :) [01:41] acicula: I suppose I'll wait then p [01:41] the error I get when trying to boot is "error: no such device", then what appears to be a UDMI string [01:41] g-ram: release is tomorrow i think? [01:41] it is [01:41] !lucid > g-ram [01:41] g-ram, please see my private message [01:41] acicula, g-ram Thursday actually [01:42] ZykoticK9: which is tomorrow, for some of us [01:42] idleone -- thanks [01:42] but if it's not stable today and the release is tomorrow [01:42] will it be stable tomorrow? [01:42] ZykoticK9: thats tomorrow for me ;) [01:42] Bodsda, it's probably 48 hours away from now then [01:42] Bodsda: you people from the future scare me :P [01:43] evilbug: after you mount it, your kernels will be in /boot (or just in one of the partitions you've mounted... you may have a separate boot partition). They will appear as vmlinuz-2.x.xx-xx-generic or something similar [01:43] steve__: does it matter if i boot up with a x64 disc? [my system is 32] [01:43] evilbug: make sure these are consistent with your grub config located in /boot/grub/menu.lst === randomusr is now known as Guest71449 [01:43] g-ram: well yeah tomorrow were two days further then yesterday, lots of patching time :P [01:43] evilbug: it does not matter [01:43] evilbug, 64bit will probably not boot on a 32bit system [01:43] ZykoticK9: no! 22 hours and 16 minutes, actually :) [01:43] IdleOne: we get all the new releases first :), but we age quicker [01:44] Bodsda, more then that for sure, but your right about it being less the 48 [01:44] Hi all, need help. Can't boot a lappy I installed Karmic on. I have access to the grub prompt, but not much else. I've read the grub docs and also the "cant' boot" thread on ubuntuforums, anybody? [01:44] How can I determine what fonts are available on my system?> [01:44] wyclif_: what does it say on bootup [01:44] ZykoticK9: no, its 01:44 [01:44] guest: xlsfonts [01:44] the error I et when trying to boot is "error: no such device", then what appears to be a UDMI string [01:44] acicula: "error: no such device" [01:45] Questions about Lucid release date/time can be answer with !isitout . Please do not abuse the factoid :) [01:45] wyclif_: any custom install options used? [01:45] acicula: when I use the live CD I can use everything, even install software. Audio and video work fine. I just can't boot. Argh. [01:46] acicula: no custom options at all, also nothing else on the partition...it's just a straight-up, full partition install...totally default [01:46] ZykoticK9: but if i boot up a 8.10 disc although i use 9.10 does it matter? 8.10 is the only x32 i have and the system i installed is 32. [01:46] Evening All :) [01:47] Does anyone know about a GDM/Window Manager issue caused by permission with ~/gconf*? [01:47] acicula: I have access to the grub prompt but I think I need to edit something to get it to boot, correct? [01:47] With LFTP, does anyone know how I can get the final transfer speed to show on the command as apposed to the text log? [01:47] evilbug, what are you trying to do with the LiveCD? === jackie is now known as Guest7779 [01:47] wyclif_: well i would guess its looking on the wrong device to boot [01:48] ZykoticK9: my 9.10 system won't boot up anymore so apparently i need to use a livecd to fix the boot. [01:48] wyclif_: how have you installed ubuntu? [01:48] acicula: true. but how do I tell it via the grub prompt what to do? [01:48] evilbug, did you fresh install 9.10? [01:48] acicula: via a Live CD [01:48] the issue being the Window Manager behaving as if it was dead [01:48] ZykoticK9: yes. [01:48] evilbug, to fix Grub2 issues you need a 9.10 CD! [01:48] brb [01:49] a quick question... how do I make a flash drive bootable under Ubuntu 9.10 so that I can create a Windows installer in it? [01:49] there is a directory named "~" inside my ~/ which keeps reappearing even after I delete it. I'm using nautilus-elementary if that makes a difference... I'm having a hard time searching for "~" stuff in google so any suggestions so any suggestions would be hugely appreciated [01:49] ZykoticK9: ok. so does it matter if i use x64? [01:49] e.g. no mouse-key response, inability to focus, select, resize a window, etc [01:49] acicula: some time ago I had Jaunty running on this same laptop, no problems [01:49] evilbug, try it - but boot will fail [01:49] ZykoticK9: i'm running a c2d but installed x32 ubuntu. [01:49] evilbug, c2d? [01:49] wyclif_: well you can edit the grub boot line to point to the right disk, but since its a laptop with nothing else theres not much choice [01:49] ZykoticK9: core 2 duo. [01:50] acicula: thanks, how do I do that? [01:50] wyclif_: just type e when in the grub men i think, think it lists possible commands at the bottom of the menu [01:50] acicula: when I look at the threads on the forums, everybody seems to be dual-booting and has issues with that, but I'm not doing that [01:50] evilbug, which is 64bit --- hummm, i'm really not sure if 64bit LiveCD for Grub2 rescue will cause problems. Good luck man. [01:51] hi all [01:51] acicula: yeah, I tried that. What I'm wondering is where to go from there. [01:51] acicula: that's actually where I'm stuck [01:51] ZykoticK9: oh no, it's actually an upgrade from 9.04 and grub is on 1.97 beta 4. [01:52] Hi! I have a bootable usb stick. Can I easily create a bootable iso from it? [01:52] evilbug, 1.97 = Grub2 [01:52] !usb | poi77 [01:52] poi77: For information about installing Ubuntu from USB flash drives, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick - For a persistent live USB install, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent [01:52] ZykoticK9: cool. nevermind... meh i'll make another disc. [01:52] I have a bash script that I'd like to run at startup as root, I tried adding #!/bin/bash to the top of it and then calling it from rc.local using /bin/bash /path/to/myscript.sh but the script requires that i run it as root and I think that's where its failing. its perms are 755 [01:53] evilbug, are you sure it's not 0.97? [01:53] need a good algabra equation solver ... any suggestions ? [01:53] ZykoticK9: i'm looking at the version number right now. [01:53] evilbug, ok - then ya it's grub2 [01:53] acicula: I press "e" then I get thrown back to the grub menu...also...at the top of the screen I'm told I'm running grub 1.xx, but I thought it should be grub2 [01:53] wyclif_: did you upgrade from 9.04 or fresh install? [01:53] and if I use sudo /bin/bash /path/to/myscript.sh it requires interactive keyboard input [01:53] IdleOne: My question is going the opposite way: someone gave me a bootable USB stick and I need to redistribute it as an iso. Is this possible? [01:53] acicula: fresh install. no upgrade [01:54] wyclif_, 1.97? [01:54] MamboKing: I assume you have the wrong owner in the file, check with -> ls -l; and change it to root -> chown root FILE [01:54] ZykoticK9: that's correct! [01:54] wyclif_, that's Grub2 [01:54] poi77: I am not sure but I guess you can copy the iso on the usb [01:54] ZykoticK9: ah, thanks for clarifying that. [01:55] IdleOne: Sorry if it's not clear. I have a bootable usb. Now I need to create a new iso for that same image. I don't have an iso already. Is it possible? [01:55] Typos_King: root is the owner, should it be something else if its to be run from rc.local? [01:55] acicula: so I *am* running Grub2 [01:55] poi77, it should work the same way as if you were ripping a CD/DVD. see http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-6509.html [01:55] I LOVE UBUNTU! [01:55] antonio_: no escribas todo en mayusculas, va contra las normas. La proxima vez seras expulsado. [01:56] wyclif_: dunno, all i can think of is trying a grub recovery via the rescue cd [01:56] poi77: I am not sure I can help but I think it is possible yes [01:56] MamboKing: no..... is odd it's asking for root permission [01:56] poi77, i'd highly recommend you download an ISO rather then trying to create one from the USB. You could try to cat the contents of the USB to an iso file, then md5 sum to see if it's correct - but I'm guessing it won't be. [01:56] acicula: that's what I've been trying to do. What am I supposed to enter in the CLI after I press "e" [01:56] why do some application not show up in installed software so i can uninstall them [01:57] Typos_King: the script uses device-mapper (dmsetup) to creat copy on write images from an image delta [01:57] installed opera no sign of it to uninstall [01:57] ZykoticK9: Thanks for the point, but the contents of the usb have been modified and so I can't start from the blank iso [01:57] acicula: like you said before, I really thought it was simply a matter of telling Grub what device to boot from [01:57] using /dev/loop and /dev/mapper require root access [01:57] wyclif_: well it should find it on its own during install [01:57] hi has anyone installed googlewave server here? [01:57] rolsworth, that depends on how you installed it [01:58] poi77, i highly doubt it will work, BUT "cat /dev/to/USB > image.iso" [01:58] so running update-grub2 should find and add your kernels [01:58] Is there any way to recover a corrupted partition table? I was resizing some partitions. 1 NTFS 1 Unallocated 1 Extended with a combination of Disk Utility and Gparted in a attempt to merge the unallocated data with my extended. Now it just spits out "Failed operation" in Disk Utility and none of my partitions are to be found in Gparted. [01:58] cori: no hablo espanol - much un poquito [01:58] poi77: .iso AFAIK have a different geometric mappings for CDs, they're not usb images, so, I don't think it'll work to burn it to an optical drive, you can always distribute it as a bootable usb though :) [01:58] that mattters? weird. i downloaded it from the opera website [01:58] rolsworth, try sudo apt-get remove opera ? [01:58] acicula: it didn't. still getting "error: no such device 6c5a6a32-3152-4a61-9924-57ad6af44" [01:58] there is nothign that lists installed apps without having to do commands [01:59] Typos_King: So you're saying that the following link won't work: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-6509.html [01:59] rolsworth: opera is just 1 .deb file, and it does show for me in the kde menus after installation [01:59] antonio_: I think cori's a bot and just chose to reply to you in spanish because your nick is a popular spanish name [01:59] is Seveas working tonite? [01:59] wyclif_: you get that when you run update-grub in a rescue console? [01:59] rolsworth: they have several .deb for several distributions, may be you download the wrong one, who knows [01:59] antonio_: she just said to not type in caps or you would be booted [02:00] wyclif_: the number is the uuid for your disk [02:00] show where? what are you talking about [02:00] acicula: no, how do I do that? [02:00] I hope this isn't super basic.. but any ideas why wireless networking is hit or miss on boot? Sometimes it works fine, sometimes it gets stuck on configuring interface. === saint_ is now known as Guest20562 [02:00] acicula: rescue console? pls explain!~ [02:00] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows [02:00] i don't think you even know what the question was [02:00] chao [02:00] acicula: Yes, the UUID. [02:00] i installed opera now i want to get rid of it. how do i uninstall it without having to use sudo commands [02:00] hey folks, if i download the release candidate, will it update itself to the final 10.4 once it is released, or is the only upgrade path a reinstall? [02:00] wyclif_: under Recovery Using the Ubuntu Alternate/Install CD it explains how to boot in rescue mode [02:01] surely ubuntu has something for this [02:01] wyclif_: and then run sudo update-grub2 [02:01] acicula: do I need the Alternate CD, can I use the regular Live CDE for that? [02:01] rolsworth, are you looking in synaptic package manager? [02:01] walbert, no update is fine -- see !final in #ubuntu+1 [02:01] ZykoticK9: so actually i have access to a cmd line here. initramfs. what can i do from here? [02:02] wyclif_: livecd should work i think [02:02] !grub2 > evilbug [02:02] evilbug, please see my private message [02:02] acicula: will try it now in Terminal [02:02] let me check that [02:02] rolsworth, try typing "opera" in the Quick Search box in synaptic. does it list anything relevant? [02:02] when is 10.4 going to be out, anyway? that 4's really starting to ripen [02:02] I hope this isn't super basic.. but any ideas why wireless networking is hit or miss on boot? Sometimes it works fine, sometimes it gets stuck on configuring interface. [02:03] !isitout | walbert [02:03] walbert: nope. Lucid is due sometime on the 29th of April. Await the release in #ubuntu-release-party [02:03] walbert: day after tomorrow [02:03] aha [02:03] #ubuntu-release-party [02:03] ZykoticK9: thank you. [02:03] ? [02:03] evilbug, glad to help [02:04] acicula: "command not found" [02:04] rolsworth: opera is not in the repositories, you have to download it from http://www.opera.com/download/ [02:04] anyone know how to run a bash script as root from rc.local or anyother place to have it run when the system boots? [02:04] lol [02:05] acicula: sudo apt-get install grub2 ??? [02:05] acura: no it should already be installed [02:05] rolsworth, also try sorting it by package name if the list is huge (which I think it is for opera) [02:05] I know this is the wrong place to be asking, but this room is usually filled with smart people :P . [02:05] I was watching Enemy of the State yesterday, and they used one of those "things" that acts like a hotel key card, and brute forces the code on the door. I was wondering what those are called, so I could google how they work, I've been trying through out the day with no luck. Anybody know what to call one of those things? [02:05] rolsworth: the way Synaptic works is that it manages the .deb packages in the repositories. If you installed an app by compiling it Synaptic does not know. [02:06] IdleOne, but if he installed with a .deb it should show up, right? [02:06] acicula: thanks a lot for the advice, will poke around and see if I can fix it [02:06] so basically there is nothing with a gui to unnstall it then [02:06] wyclif_: can you try booting with the livecd and at the boot prompt select recovery or recover a broken system ? did you get the option to slect a root device during boot? [02:07] rolsworth, as I said - it depends on how you installed it [02:07] deb file from opera.com [02:07] lois[pac]: I think it might yeah [02:07] rolsworth: open synaptic and search it [02:07] rolsworth: sudo dpkg -P opera; simple [02:08] there is nothing that says anything about opera in that program [02:08] ianwizard: (i'd hope) you'd call it an imaginary plot element... according to wikipedia, magnetic strip cards have something on the order of 360 bits per inch; that's a lot of brute forcing for something that's meant to read at the speed of a human wrist [02:09] rolsworth, I just googled the words 'ubuntu uninstall opera' and guess what popped up? [02:09] can someone help me with monodevelop on ubuntu 9.1 [02:09] rolsworth, easiest if you just go with Typos_King's command. in any case you have to type in your password, not much easier through the GUI :-/ [02:09] dude i am not trying to install opera [02:09] walbert: I've seen people hook up their Ipods and open it with a pre recorded. keycode. [02:09] rolsworth: sudo dpkg -P opera; is to Purge, or remove in ful [02:09] ok just wanted to see if there was a simple way to uninstall stuff without goign to that terminal [02:10] ianwizard: prerecorded and brute-force are two different things :p [02:10] rolsworth: either way, if it's installed it'll show under -> dpkg -l | grep -i opera [02:10] rolsworth, go forth and rock that terminal! :D [02:10] what's a good c# package for ubuntu? monodevelop is the only one? [02:10] walbert: I know, but still, it SHOULD be possible. It's just a matter of figuring out how... [02:10] Typos_King, I think rolsworth only likes gui - seems he doesn't like to use the terminal [02:11] i kind of find havng to use a terminal in 2010 to do basic stuff to be a bit lame [02:11] hello, could some1 tell me why this command isnt allowed "sudo cp /etc/network/interfaces /etc/network/old-interfaces" [02:11] you don't hear anyone using dos in win anymore [02:11] I need to copy a dvd in vob format to avi or something else other than vob its highschool basketball games for scholarship no copywrite [02:11] I have a internal card reader that I need to remount because of the "remove device safely option" what command do I use to remount it [02:11] can you recommend some software [02:12] ianwizard: for a 2.5" card you're talking 8.4 * 10^270 possible combinations... that's over 3 times as many ... atoms... exist. [02:13] anyone who can help me would be appreciated [02:13] could anyone please tell me how to turn off "strict checking" in openssh? === yofel_ is now known as yofel [02:14] vernr: There is probably a setting in /etc/ssh/sshd_config [02:14] or hell, i said that wrong, that's over a gogol times as many atoms exist... it's over a gogol gogol times [02:14] britany_okla, might try the avconvert scripts for nautilus [02:15] bloodrock will it work with vob files [02:15] My friends Ubuntu software center will let im browse programs but there is not a button for downloading any reason for that? [02:15] britany_okla, i think so [02:18] snowhouse: there is an 'install' button [02:18] he doesnt have one [02:18] snowhouse, can he use synaptic? [02:18] Back with a few more questions [02:18] he doesnt have it.. [02:18] snowhouse, perhaps he doesn't have permission. Try system > administration > Users & groups [02:18] he just installed [02:19] snowhouse, it comes with ubuntu [02:19] bloodrock can i message u [02:19] hes using the admin account, he installed it off a live cd === patrick is now known as Guest39421 [02:19] oh i dunno if he can then [02:19] is there a host file in ubuntu like in windows? [02:20] Should the syntax in this example work generally, or is it something specific to the ubuntu-mozilla-daily ppa? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PinningHowto#Pinning%20the%20ubuntu-mozilla-daily%20PPA [02:20] britany_okla, looking up if it will convert vob [02:20] What other programs for disk management does ubuntu have... I notice the package manager and janitor..... but my hard drive space is eroding away and never returning [02:20] i have just installed Kmix. How do i run it? [02:20] where is it/what is it under [02:20] Specifically the Pin: release o=LP-PPA-[ppname] bit [02:20] domicinada: Pampliset [02:20] <[-jon-]> what encryption is used for passwords in the shadow file? straight md5? [02:20] how do i tell if a dvd/cdrw drive is detected [02:20] its detected in bios but doesn't seem readable by any OS [02:21] domicinada: Palimpsest rather. [02:21] i wanted to try with linux [02:21] snowhouse, reply to users by name - e.g. start your message with rin then press tab, that puts my name in for you [02:21] [-jon-]: by default sha512 [02:21] xuli: Does it search for unlinked files etc? [02:21] why not have a try [02:21] <[-jon-]> funkyHat: are you sure? o_O that seems odd [02:21] snowhouse, system/administration/synaptic package manager [02:21] [-jon-]: if you have an old password (i.e. have upgraded for a few releases) it might be md5 or sha256 [02:21] [-jon-]: why is that odd? [02:21] i found avidemux [02:21] <[-jon-]> oh, if it accepts multiple formats [02:21] <[-jon-]> because I thought it would have been something oldr [02:21] britany_okla, ok it will convert vob via ffmpeg [02:21] bloodrock i found avidemux [02:21] how do i see if the dvdrw drive is being detected by OS [02:21] i need a command that will give me an output/error [02:22] [-jon-]: the bit between the first $$s tells you what type of hash it is. $6$ means sha512 [02:22] dominicdinada: I don't think so. It shows serial number, status, self-tests results. etc. [02:22] <[-jon-]> ah, it is [02:22] nobody up on the internal card readers? [02:22] <[-jon-]> thanks [02:22] oh :( [02:23] britany_okla, that prob do it too since most all converters use ffmpeg [02:23] Is there any one here Chinese ? [02:23] But nothing to clean the drive up ? [02:24] I am new to ubuntu so easier is probably better bloodrock [02:24] !cn > dxc (Please see the private message from ubottu) [02:24] thankyou bloodrock [02:24] welcome [02:25] the virtualbox channel is quite quiet now, anyone have much exp with vbox?

[02:33] !anyone | Guest39421 [02:33] Guest39421: 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? [02:34] anyone know how to install the flash plugin for firefox? [02:34] flash.. i think it can be done with ailurus [02:34] let me check [02:35] great :-) [02:35] linux_is_my_hero: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree [02:35] Or you can do that. too [02:35] linux_is_my_hero: or sudo apt-get install flashplugin-installer [02:35] in the software center there is a package [02:35] or that [02:35] I have my music collection from my mac on a bootable backup/clone on a HFS+ partition of an exteral drive. I want to copy the entire folder of music to Ubuntu but I cannot. I have tried gksudo nautilus and still no joy. the error message I get is:The folder "Music" cannot be handled because you do not have permissions to read it.

If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [02:36] i think there is an HFSexplorer package from sourceforge.net [02:36] I thought that my router was blocking everything but one port for ssh. I was running xhost + because its all local traffic. Or so I thought. A little while earlier someone got control of my desktop (it said so) and they started looking for files to let themselves back in. If I enable remote desktop, it appears from the dialog to expose my external address, which 1) I don't want, and 2) don't see how w/ my nat box only forwarding o [02:36] ne port. [02:37] my battery indocator on gnome shows baterry always full how can i fix it [02:37] * claybustr waits for the portscan flood after asking such a question in a linux channel.

[02:37] ouststanding...thanks for your help eevryone have a good night :- [02:37] ) [02:37] bye [02:37] hello.. do you know if there is a kde version of the ubuntu one client? [02:37] lois[pac]: ok np [02:38] to late already gone [02:38] Well the newest Ubuntu is coming up and that means a lot of installing and downloading for me. Is there any way to download the packages for the programs I want, save them to a disk and use that disk as the source for the rest of the installs? [02:38] claybustr: You sure you weren' [02:38] I just tried using wallpaper-tray and desktop drapes and they both fail and crash when I restart. [02:38] and has anyone tested b43 driver without continues disconetions on lucid lynx? [02:38] Squidy_at_Home: there isn't, but you can run Ubuntu One inside KDE [02:38] weren't what? [02:38] claybustr: ... weren't just compromized through ssh? Do you have a strong password / key? [02:38] Because I have a slow connection and it gets really, really old waiting for all the updates and programs I want installed to download every time. [02:38] wolfwalker_prime: isnt' there an app called aptoncd? [02:39] there is a directory named "~" inside my ~/ which keeps reappearing even after I delete it. I'm using nautilus-elementary if that makes a difference... I'm having a hard time googling for "~" so any suggestions would be hugely appreciated [02:39] Guest39421: http://www.beingmanan.com/wp/2008/07/accessing-ext3-ntfs-hfs-via-windows-ubuntu-os-x/ take a look [02:39] !aptoncd [02:39] 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 [02:39] Neat. [02:39] wolfwalker_prime: What you want is absolutely doable, yeah. [02:39] yeah it's pretty nice! [02:39] and has anyone tested b43 driver without continues disconetions on lucid lynx? [02:39] strong key, reasonable password and the key shouldn't have gotten out [02:40] but yeah that does make more sense - that or a wifi leach, but that's a 63digit WPA2 password [02:40] sebsebseb: ok.. a kde version would be nice.. :-( [02:40] I know someone was trying the wifi net a few weeks ago. [02:40] juan__ all test indicate avoid braodcom if ya can then they might sort their shit out........ [02:40] Squidy_at_Home: it's not likely to happen any time soon, if ever [02:40] How can I get my panels to be semi transparent? [02:41] Squidy_at_Home: Canonical don't care that much about Kubuntu [02:41] sure but i have an hp mini so that aint an option [02:41] Guest39421: Did you check the Synaptic package manager search for HFS and 3 items pop right up [02:41] guest394321 right click panel>properties>background [02:41] Canonical don't care about Kubuntu people! [02:42] bios is locked to this wifi card [02:42] Guest39421: dominicdinada: You don't need to install any additional software to read hfs+ in Ubuntu. [02:42] juan__ STA driver.... install bcmwl-kernel-source and activate under hardware drivers [02:42] Jordan_U, but apparently copying from = write? [02:42] Squidy_at_Home: jrcarr2 Only two of the Kubuntu devs are from Canonical or something like that, with the rest from the community [02:42] i am using that driver but cant use aircrack or kismet with sta [02:42] Guest39421: No. [02:42] sebsebseb: I recognize about that, saddly [02:42] it can inject under sta [02:43] cant [02:43] Jordan_U, I cannot copy from HFS+ [02:43] I just tried using wallpaper-tray and desktop drapes and they both fail and crash when I restart.

[02:43] my ubuntu keeps freezing at start up is there any way that i can reinstall it without losing my data ? [02:43] Hmmm... [02:43] !offline [02:43] nicor_93, nope [02:43] If you need to download Ubuntu packages using another machine or OS, check the desired packages in Synaptic and select File > Generate package download script. Alternatively, try http://apt.alturl.com/ - See also !APTonCD [02:44] Guest39421: If you answer my question I might be able to help you, I cannot help you without that information though. [02:44] Squidy_at_Home: quite a lot of other distros that are good that run KDE, plus there's Dropbox similar to Ubuntu One, but cross platform [02:44] why not? guest? [02:44] any way to undo a cp command? [02:44] Oceanus: do you have a /home directory? [02:44] yes [02:44] Guest39421: hfsplus [02:44] Tools to access HFS+ formatted volumes + hfsutils [02:44] Tools for reading and writing Macintosh volumes [02:44] Jordan_U, what was your question? Im sorry [02:44] Oceanus: then reinstall, and let that directory alone. [02:44] Guest39421: Can you see any files / directories on the filesystem? [02:44] i mean, my flock has just bursted into flames... and i have no browser... [02:44] howdy [02:45] I just tried using wallpaper-tray and desktop drapes and they both fail and crash when I restart.

I don't really understand why certain people have a right thing, about running apps from the other desktop envirionment in their choosen one. I am not sure if that's you, but it might be. [02:45] Oceanus: yes, but, but, don't touch the /home directory. [02:46] I used to love KDE.... it was a lot better than gnome back when I started with linux in 02/03 [02:46] Bye [02:46] Guest39421: Ok, do you know the mount point? If not, can you run "mount" in a terminal and pastebin the output? [02:46] ok ty very much :) [02:46] now KDE is pretty lame compared to gnome [02:46] night nicor [02:46] jrcarr2: depends on the distro [02:46] jrcarr2, its all in personal pref but yes i also am a gnome guy [02:46] My printer was working, but now it isn't talking to Ubuntu?

[02:56] Guest39421: Ok, try running this command to copy the "Music" folder to your desktop "sudo cp -r /media/backup/Music/ ~/Desktop/" If it works you will need to do an additional step to make the files be owned by your user rather than root.

Perhaps it would have my letters... ah [03:01] erichammond, looks like NeoTech [03:01] erichammond: we just got the k for kubuntu like 2 weeks ago [03:01] heh [03:01] maco: Not even 'x' or 'ed'? [03:02] Jordan_U: im not sure if those are done yet [03:02] Jordan_U: i know the xubuntu team has a logo, but they may have made up their own thing "for now". im pretty sure kubuntu was the first derivative to get its letter [03:02] Guest39421: I'll check out NeoTech, thanks. [03:02] What is the channel for Ubuntu server? Thanks [03:02] rbdyck: #ubuntu-server [03:03] erichammond, i dont think it is, but its similar. Neotech is heavier I believe [03:03] oops, guess I should have asked in #ubuntu+1 (almost there :) ) [03:05] Guest39421: (in case you missed it) what is the path to the Music directory within your "backup" partition? [03:06] anyone need help? [03:06] *valorie: why did you choose kubuntu over ubuntu? === `mOOse` is now known as m00se [03:07] ennui, must like kde [03:07] Jordan_U, (in case YOU missed it lol) how do I do it with the space? sudo cp -r /media/backup/Users/PatrickGleason 1/Music/ ~/Desktop/ i got it copying by draggin the destinations into terminal and using sudo cp -r (recursive?) and it is now copying. When it is done, do I just need to chown it to somebody? [03:07] hiexpo: oh so it is mostly for the desktop enviornment? [03:07] Guest39421: Wow, you even highlighted me. Sorry about that :) [03:08] ennui, yes [03:08] Jordan_U, dont be sorry. This is free tech support! lol and im learning so win win [03:08] Can someone help me solve a problem with wallpaper-tray? [03:09] hola [03:09] ** hi.. old dos dude, here. -- I'd like to make a couple of macros or scripts to make some shortened commands. (ie: 'tar xvf [var]' --> 'untar [var]') what are the different ways I could go about this?? -thx === carlos is now known as Guest51370 [03:09] Guest39421: Yes, you need to "sudo chown -R you:you ~/Desktop/Music" but be verry carefull to get the correct directory, chown -R can be bad if used on the wrong directories [03:09] W43372, be specific about your question please you are more likely to get a faster responce and help [03:10] Jordan_U, what do I use for you:you? [03:10] Guest39421: Your short user name, which you can find by running "whoami". [03:10] Guest39421: I haven't been following the whole convo, but if you want to cp a filename that contains a space you can just escape it like so: cp -r /path/to/my/file\ with\ space.txt /destination/ [03:10] anyone know how to get the netbook remix desktop after installing ubuntu? cannot find how to any where [03:11] !nbr [03:11] Ubuntu Netbook Remix is a slightly altered version of Ubuntu, optimised for small screens. For more information, please see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UNR - support in #ubuntu [03:11] hiexpo I installed wallpaper-tray and it worked just fine, until I restarted and then it crashed and I couldn't get it working again. So I removed it and decided to try desktop drapes, I had the same problem when I restarted. [03:11] pat5star, so i can just leave the space in then? [03:11] any one here know about WindowsXPUnderQemu [03:11] rolsworth: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-netbook-remix [03:11] rolsworth: i think its just a package u can install [03:11] rolsworth: like xangua said [03:11] Guest39421: yes [03:11] anyone rocking transparent panels in gnome? [03:11] pat5star, thanks! [03:12] b00b: look into alias [03:12] shayne: I use virtualbox to run windows most of the time [03:12] ?? how can a make a shortened command, ie: 'untar file' instead of 'tar xvf file' ?? [03:12] shayne: easy setup [03:12] pat [03:12] thanks [03:12] b00b: .bash_aliases [03:12] I knew I'd seen it somewhere .. [03:12] thanks both of ya [03:13] Guest39421: yw [03:13] hololight: is that able to run world of warcraft? [03:13] b00b: np, alias is great for what you want to do. Add as many as you want to ~/.bash_aliases [03:14] b00b: alias untar='tar -xvf' [03:14] shayne: doubtful, as would qemu.... but wine runs wow well for me (at least in the past [03:15] shayne: there is very little to no support for 3d in any of the virtualization products right now [03:15] although there is a bit of opengl (which wow supports... or did) in at least virutalbox [03:15] hololight: i tried wine and it installed wine itself but evrytime i tried to install wow it wouldnt work, just lock up the installtion all the time, something with the graphics. i researched it and i can run wow using qemu [03:16] i have found the murderers who were financing murder plots [03:16] ConcreteRose, on Ubuntu IRC?!?! [03:16] shayne: i never installed wow in wine... just copied (or ran in place) from where it was installed in windows. [03:16] They are on cnn.com and on this network. [03:16] I installed wallpaper-tray and it worked just fine, until I restarted and then it crashed and I couldn't get it working again. So I removed it and decided to try desktop drapes, I had the same problem when I restarted. [03:16] <^paradox^> i know this isnt the place to ask, but im in the middle of something and cant google for it. is there gimp channel so i can get some advice on its features? [03:17] how do I set statuses? "Looks around nervously" [03:17] did that work good? [03:17] W43372, #gimp [03:17] ^paradox^: Did you try #gimp? [03:17] hololight: did that work good? [03:17] shayne: yeah, wine doesn't care [03:17] the finance of the banks militaries, etc [03:18] ^paradox^: go to #gimp @ irc.gimp.org [03:18] whoops ^paradox^ yeah #gimp [03:18] <^paradox^> it's not on freenode eh? [03:18] ^paradox^: they are on a different channel [03:18] shayne: for a while i ran it in opengl mode... then at some point something changed and directx (default) ran bvetter [03:18] ?? I really feel like [places - search for files] isn't finding files that DO exist .. I set 'look in folder' to 'filesystem' .. any ideas? [03:18] <^paradox^> ok ill try it ty [03:19] hololight: maybe ill try installing it to a protable hardrive on a windows computer then coppying it to ubuntu [03:19] shayne: For the most part, you couldn't tell the difference between running it native and running it in wine [03:19] yes [03:19] :) [03:19] howdy [03:19] YDS [03:19] <^paradox^> Odd-rationale: gimpnet is the network? [03:19] shayne: I had it on a second partition, but its the same idea.... remember its over 8 gigs [03:20] ^paradox^: the website says irc.gimp.org [03:20] :) [03:20] help! problems with growisofs! need to blank a dvd-rw! but brasero won't work! tried "growisofs -Z /dev/dvd=/dev/zero", but once this has completed about 99.9% it will give up and claim that there's an error. i'm "super-duper" sure that there's nothing wrong with either the dvd-rw or the drive (other than being relatively cheap. how to work around this problem? [03:20] ConcreteRose, wheres it at on cnn? [03:20] <_|-> hi guys [03:20] ^paradox^: although, iirc, gimpnet may be an alias for the same network.

[03:23] my xubuntu 9.10 will not load anymore. it boots fine and it seems to be loading right until it's supposed to get to the login screen. at the point the screen goes black and nothing loads. how can this be fixed? [03:23] <_|-> does ubuntu only support open licensed software like debian? [03:23] I got E: The package zensched needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it. <------- i got that all the time, how to remove? [03:23] _|-: that didnt make sense [03:23] evilbug, have you tried recovery mode? [03:23] depends on what you mean by support [03:24] Cara quem ai e fam de jogos online q pode ajudar a configurar um? [03:24] I installed wallpaper-tray and it worked just fine, until I restarted and then it crashed and I couldn't get it working again. So I removed it and decided to try desktop drapes, I had the same problem when I restarted. [03:24] <_|-> by support i mean in the main package repos [03:24] Penol, how'd you install it? [03:24] XBC, 101 [03:24] hiexpo: with dpkg -i nameOFthepackage.deb [03:24] !es | darck [03:24] darck: 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. [03:24] Guest39421: yes, i did try reinstalling grub but not anything more. [03:25] _|-: i still dont get you, try again in one sentence [03:25] !br | darck [03:25] darck: Por favor, use #ubuntu-br para ajuda em português. Obrigado. [03:25] I believe thare are non gpl'd packages in the main repos... but i'm not sure [03:25] oops [03:25] SHI 908 [03:25] how do u get the gloobus preview to work [03:25] evilbug, well if you get to a login screen grub should be fine afaik [03:25] evilbug, in recovery mode does it do the same thing? [03:25] wolfwalker_prime: i have not tried k3b. it has all kinds of peculiar software dependencies so that i'd rather not have to deal with it if possible. surely, if a program like k3b can get the job done, then there must be a more elegant solution as well? [03:25] _|-: In 'main' no, but in the other repositories provided by Ubuntu, there might be. See http://www.ubuntu.com/community/ubuntustory/components for more information [03:26] <_|-> Pici: thanks [03:26] I stand corrected [03:26] Guest39421: it doesn't get to a login screen, that's the thing. screen goes black right when login should show up. [03:26] hiexpo: how to fix? [03:26] fix, test [03:26] Penol, ok than its in your synaptic under obsolete go there and do a reinstall [03:26] evilbug, ah i see-even in recovery mode? [03:26] hiexpo: its a server [03:26] hello... I'm running Xubuntu 10.04 RC1, is there an easy way to enable VNC access to it remotely? Seems like I remember Ubuntu having a built-in tool to facilitate this... without having to do much manual configuration? [03:27] Penol, oh [03:27] Guest39421: oh, my bad. no, in recovery mode it logs me in as initramfs saying it can't boot /. [03:27] Pici: I guess it would also depend on weather you want to split hairs... the restricted sources come default in the main ubuntu.... again, splitting hairs [03:27] peanutpan, elegance is not the issue. Getting the job done is the objective, and k3b has always worked well for me. Hence the recommendation. Couldn't hurt to try. [03:27] hololight: hence why I provided the link for more information :) [03:27] !lucid | digilink [03:27] digilink, there is "remote desktop" in ubuntu, set it as a startup program, open port 5900 on your router, and remember your ip or get a dyndns account [03:27] digilink: 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 - Await the release in #ubuntu-release-party [03:28] Hi! I have a usb disk that is mounted. How can I tell its /dev/ address? [03:28] Where can i get a new memory? [03:28] hiexpo: everytime i try to install a package, E: The package zpoll needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it. shows up and dont let me install irssi for example. [03:28] digilink, i dont know if that is present in xubuntu, but i think its called verneir or something in synaptic, anyone ? [03:28] Guest39421: what could be wrong? [03:28] poi77, I cheat: I use gparted and look at what it calls it. :D [03:29] evilbug, have you been able to get to a terminal? can you run a sudo fsck on it? [03:29] poi77: type 'mount' into terminal and look at which dev is mounted as which [03:29] Guest39421 thanks... yep there's no remote desktop options in Xubuntu, at least none that I can see... [03:29] Thanks all [03:29] digilink, theres like an actual name for the thing. grrr thats gonna drive me bonkers [03:29] hey guys. working with thinkfinger on lucid...sudo/gksudo/gnome-screensaver are all working now. but i'm still unable to swipe to login. i ran the pam setup script, and i've looked over the /etc/pam.d files and they look good to me...anybody know what i might be missing? [03:29] wolfwalker_prime: well, if you insist, i will give k3b a go. [03:30] digilink, you can install it, if i can remember what its called. WHAT IS DEFAULT VNC THING CALLED IN UBUNTU lol [03:30] v-something [03:30] Guest39421: i can load up my hdd via a livecd. run "rescue a broken system". [03:30] ... [03:30] peanutpan: having not payed attention to the conversation at all..... i have always used k3b and like it as being quite easy to use [03:30] !VNC [03:30] VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely. It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX [03:30] evilbug, i have never done that. does it just run an fsck? [03:31] Likewise [03:31] anyone know if you need a special touchpad to use 2 finger scrolling? [03:31] Guest39421: one sec. [03:31] Guest39421 found it, Vino [03:31] thanks for the pointer ;) [03:31] .... [03:31] steve__, not sure. works on MBP 4,1 and dellmini9 *shrug* [03:31] one document said to go to system->administration->login window, then to the local tab, and set a bunch of things...but i don't have "login window" at all...i've got "login screen" but it doesn't have any tabs or any of the options mentioned in the doc [03:31] digilink, that sounds right. are you using a dynamic ip? [03:32] Guest39421: Mine is greyed out... [03:32] nope LAN only [03:32] steve__: dual finger scroll works on my mac. on pcs though i've only seen scrolling on the side of the touchpad. [03:32] has stuff like 'Themed with face browser' and 'Selected Only' and choose 'Human List' moved to some other configuration screen? [03:32] ConcreteRose: can you please stop posting non-sensical and offtopic comments. It adds to the scroll and is not helpful. [03:32] steve__, are there prop. drivers available for your touchpad? [03:32] Oh really? [03:32] who said i was talking to you [03:32] Guest39421: im not sure, how can I tell? [03:32] ConcreteRose, !offtopic [03:33] hcook: since karmic ubuntu has shipped with a new gdm and so many of the tutorials don't apply anymore [03:33] Guest39421: nvm proprietary, got it. ill check [03:33] ConcreteRose: you weren't. I am asking you to stop. [03:33] I was talking to somebody else [03:33] Stop stalking me [03:33] steve__, system>administrator>hardware drivers i believe [03:33] !who | ConcreteRose [03:33] ConcreteRose: 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 :) [03:33] Guest39421: so what am i looking for by running fsck? [03:33] So I've got a data partition that is named Data how can I change it to 'data'? [03:33] hololight: thanks for the opinion. i just kind of feel skeptical, i mean, if k3b was a clearly superior program, then why wouldn't ubuntu use it by default? instead, the 'brasero' program simply doesn't work in a decent amount of situations [03:33] evilbug, are you familiar with chkdsk on windows? same idea [03:33] !fsck [03:33] fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo shutdown -F -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot [03:33] Im not in psychiatry, this is a free internet zone. [03:33] !! [03:34] peanutpan: likely since k3b is qt based, not gtk [03:34] Guest39421: gotcha. [haven't used windows in a while] [03:34] ConcreteRose: in fact, this is not a free internet zone and the topic is restricted to Ubuntu support only [03:34] ConcreteRose: as a matter of fact it isn't. you are bound by the Freenode guidelines. and also the Ubuntu guidelines when in Ubuntu irc channels [03:34] Really so what you wanna do? So what? [03:35] .... [03:35] peanut, songbird would be the dominant program if they could work through the darn bugs [03:35] evilbug, or "repair disk" on OSX [03:35] Isn't there an op that can handle this? [03:35] Guest39421: no there are none for it [03:35] Why dont you go shut your mouth for your sixworthpenny ass brain. [03:35] cold tip: don't get ops mad at you [03:35] Guest39421: yeah, got that :) thank you. it actually found a few things that are off and so they're being fixed now. [03:36] Myrtti, - ban him or what ever they are [03:36] evilbug, hopefully that will be all it needs! [03:36] Myrtti, +1 for kicking Concrete Rose [03:36] things that Ubuntu needs that it doesnt have . An easy to use desktop publishing program that doubles as web page making [03:36] moving on === Administrator_ is now known as test1 [03:37] Guest39421: hopefully. it did this all of a sudden. updates have been installed for quite a while so nothing should be acting up. [03:37] thank you all for being cool. I'm out for the night. peace [03:37] evilbug, sometimes it just needs an fsck every once in a while. how healthy is the HDD? [03:37] what's the keystroke to quit man? [03:37] dave: q [03:37] Guest39421: it said .2% contiguous files. [03:37] voss749, like Publisher? [03:38] voss749, Adobe InDesign can make web pages, but you dont want to use it lol. I think desktop publishing and web page creation are seperate for good reason [03:38] guest, yep publisher is one of the few microsoft programs I find darn useful. [03:39] Guest39421: no, it didn't fix the issue. does the same thing. [03:39] evilbug, did you try your live cd and "rescue" (use with caution cause i have no idea what that does) [03:39] Hello. I am two internet connections. One using Wifi, and another using USB. I want to monitor the amount of download I do from each of the connections for which I need to know the name of the ethernet port. For Wifi it is eth1. Can you help me find the name for the USB connection? [03:39] have* [03:39] Guest39421, but publisher is very good for basic web creation and basic desktop publishing. The openoffice people dont seem to understand that [03:39] Guest39421: that's what i just did. [03:39] voss749, not for making webpages I hope [03:40] Yes I do sometimes use it to make simple web pages [03:40] voss749, sorry to hear that lol [03:40] Its webpages work fine with firefox [03:40] voss749, i bet they validate real nice too. [03:41] how to get wireless working thru terminal, can someone point me to a good guide or guide me themselves? [03:41] Keshav: ifconfig [03:41] Guest39421, who cares about validation. You look at the webpage in IE, firefox, safari, and opera if it looks fine its good enough [03:41] Guest39421: when i try to mount / in recovery mode i get an error "cannot read /etc/fstab: No such file or directory" [03:43] voss749, and that is why people shouldnt use frontpage lol [03:43] How can I tell who owns a file [03:44] evilbug, is the drive old and ratty? [03:44] guest39421, If you have tested your page in IE, firefox, Safari and Opera youve govered about 99% of users, Iphone users can suck it ;-) [03:44] Threats>> [03:44] NSA [03:44] poi77, right click-properties [03:44] Guest39421: no, it's a new laptop. bought a couple of months ago. [03:44] poi77: ls -a (may be a diferent -) [03:44] poi77: yeah mine is in terminal [03:44] voss749, not just iPhone, people using assitive devices, web crawlers, etc [03:45] poi77: on cli, ls -l shows permissions and ownership in the directory listing [03:45] How can I figure out what groups I am a member of? [03:46] poi77: type groupes on a terminal [03:46] poi77, ask the cool kids at school. theyll tell ya [03:46] poi77: sorry, 'groups', keyboard lag [03:46] guest39421, If its that important then maybe an opensource version of publisher that complied would be good. [03:46] I want to monitor the usage of my internet connection. To monitor Wifi, I use the port eth1. Can someone help me find the equivalent for my USB connection? [03:46] 'groups' [03:46] voss749, no, publisher is the problem, not the solution lol [03:46] Thanks for your help [03:46] guest39421, Im not recoding my webpage for effin lynx users ;-) [03:46] How can I add my user to a group? [03:47] poi77: also users/groups in admin while in gnome [03:47] wat is up? [03:47] voss749, if you use publisher you dont code a thing haha [03:47] hi all [03:47] how to get wireless working thru terminal, can someone point me to a good guide or guide me themselves? [03:47] Guest39421: any clues? [03:47] useradd / groupadd? [03:47] mickster04: wpa or wep? [03:47] Is it safe to add myself to the 'disk' group? [03:48] mickster04: http://blog.tplus1.com/index.php/2008/06/13/how-to-connect-to-a-wireless-network-from-the-ubuntu-command-line/ [03:48] I want to monitor the usage of my internet connection. To monitor Wifi, I use the port eth1. Can someone help me find the equivalent for my USB connection? [03:48] evilbug, it sounds like a hdd issue to me. but I know less about ubuntu than many others here. ask around, or test your hdd. do you happen to have SpinRite 6? [03:48] evilbug, best damn HDD utility ever created. [03:48] guest39421, true but I consider desktop publishing and web publishing the same thing just on different types of paper. HTML coding is the same to me as asking me to cue the plates on my printing press. [03:48] Printer works on ubuntu? [03:48] poi77: well if you want to make it easy on trojans (not that sudo doesn't anyway) [03:48] Keshav, whatapp u using to moitor [03:48] Guest39421: i do not have that. [03:48] hiexpo, vnstat [03:48] monitor [03:49] vnstat -i eth1 gives the usage for Wifi (for me) if I am not mistaken [03:49] evilbug, sorry, I dont know of any good free alternatives :/ [03:49] hiexpo, I also have a USB connection and I want to monitor that [03:49] un214: what do you mean?

Then run "sudo fsck /dev/*" where * is each partition that you found using the previous command [04:00] hello everyone [04:00] like, ask your actual, complete question [04:00] Wallpaper-tray and desktop drapes crashed when I restarted my system and won't work anymore.

[04:02] sp0sp: it's -t msdos [04:03] Guest74840: so the easy way would be to just take the CD that you installed ubuntu with and use that to run the check [04:03] or -t vfat [04:03] yes that would be another easy way [04:03] voss749, learning web design with publisher is like... learning teaching drivers ed with a moped.

I'm #ubuntu's favorite infobot, you can search my brain yourself at http://ubottu.com/factoids.cgi - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Bots [04:32] Guest39421: perhaps not. but it'll probably work [04:32] hi..:D [04:32] Guest39421: It's the same packages anyway, just a different official distro name [04:32] thiemster, can I install KDE without KDE applications? or is that retarded? [04:32] Guest39421 yes you can. I know of a way. let me look it up [04:32] why u want kde? [04:32] mickster04 where could I go to ask questions about building my first pc? [04:33] hiexpo, i think its pretty [04:33] Mountain_Man: google [04:33] un214, I'm told to go to: http://www.yoursite.com/iem/ When I do, I see this: http://pastebin.com/e6UyUYFK [04:33] hiexpo, honestly. lol [04:33] !google > mickster04 [04:33] mickster04, please see my private message [04:33] ZykoticK9: it was either that or offtopic him [04:33] hiexpo, im looking for a new environment cause gnome is too heavy for this old beast [04:33] Guest39421: you want to install kde desktop without kde apps¿¿ [04:33] Guest39421 try "sudo apt-get install kde-core" [04:34] you cannot do a quick disconnect with ntfs, you have to umount it... but with fat32, you can right? [04:34] ok it runs as webserver user [04:34] Guest39421: well kde is not lighter than gnome [04:34] Guest39421, ok use kubuntu [04:34] anyone know how to install frostwire from the command line? [04:34] un214, any ideas? [04:34] chmod filename will fix the permissions but probably the install is wrong [04:34] **terminal [04:34] linux_is_my_hero: i believe frostwire is not in the repositories [04:34] mickster04, it's just so rude to say "google it" - i realize the question is WAY offtopic for this channel, and difficult to reply too, but please don't use the "google it" :) [04:34] anyway, read the manual [04:34] linux_is_my_hero: sudo apt-get install frostwire? [04:34] install frostwire with a deb [04:34] xangua, hmm, scratch that then. does xfce or lxde have compiz? [04:34] the instal should have done it for you [04:34] mickster: already tried it [04:35] mickster: if i know the exact url how can i install it from the terminal? [04:35] Guest39421: if you run compiz on a old/low-memory computer, it'll be very slow [04:35] Guest39421: you can use compiz in xfce but you will need to use metacity or either emerald window decorators [04:35] xangua, same for lxde? [04:35] linux_is_my_hero: just go to the website? download and install? [04:36] can anyone help me get wireless working through terminal, when i do sudo iwconfig wlan0 essid "labla" - it doesn't change the ssid shown when i run sudo iwconfig wlan0 [04:36] thiemster, dammit. i just want everything i guess. [04:36] i use Gnome-ART software.. [04:36] its good.. [04:36] Guest39421: no idea, if you want something lighter why do you want compiz¿ [04:36] Guest39421: probably. everyone seems to nowadays [04:36] Guest39421: He means gtk-window-decorator or emerald as a decorator and yes, compiz will work anywhere there's an X session with working graphics drivers [04:36] mickster04: i was going for cool points, trying to do it without my web browser [04:37] !emerald [04:37] emerald is an obsolete window decorator for compiz. It's unsupported and unmaintained, making issues with it very hard to diagnose and fix. There are no known, supported alternatives. [04:37] linux_is_my_hero: you can do a wget on the ,deb file and run the deb file from cli i think [04:37] linux_is_my_hero: you can use "wget *" where * is the url [04:37] you don't need a DE to run compiz and you can run compiz in most DE's (with the exception of gnome-shell) [04:37] xangua, i still want it to be cool, its not even THAT old. just not snappy. 2.2Ghz single core AMD, 1GB ram, nvidia something. like 128 dedicated i think. maybe less idk [04:37] soreau, thanks man [04:37] mickster04: how about java? my frost wire won't run [04:37] Guest39421: I WISH I had that much ram. Only 512MB :'( but that should definitely be enough ram to run compiz [04:38] lol i have 4 gb [04:38] :-) [04:38] thiemster, haha you are running lxde you said? [04:38] linux_is_my_hero: sudo apt-get install? [04:38] mickster I have been there (google) for 2 days now, and was hoping to converse about it with some one of experience. I was hoping for a channel sugesstion perhaps. thanks Zykotick for the consideration. [04:38] Guest39421: actually... I'm running awesome wm. BUT I really wouldn't recommend that for most people [04:39] <_pg_> how can I get transparent panels in gnome 10.04?

[04:40] Guest39421: plus, as someone pointed out to me yesterday on this IRC channel, it looks like it's from the late 80s or early 90s [04:40] <_pg_> xangua: yes, i can get the middle to be transparent but not the sides, like apps, places, system etc [04:40] _pg_: right click the panel, open properties, background, solid color, etc [04:40] thiemster, thats unfortunate [04:40] _pg_: oh, i hear ya [04:40] Guest39421: which part? the not wanting to learn or the 80s/90s? [04:40] _pg_, it depends on the theme you are using [04:41] Guest39421: or perhaps both :) [04:41] _pg_: then you are looking for transparent menus, not panel [04:41] thiemster, the 80s/90s lol [04:41] sear that [04:41] search* [04:41] Guest39421: well, not being around in the late 80s, I wouldn't really know personally. But I love the interface.

[04:42] Guest39421: haha I get what you mean [04:42] bye everyone [04:43] _pg_, just don't use Ambiance or Radiance - and the whole panel will be transparent (other themes MAY be affected too) [04:43] <_pg_> ZykoticK9: what is defualt in 10.04?

[04:59] patrick-1: i think Flannel wanted to know why you're still sticking with dapper [04:59] patrick-1: That's correct. Is there something keeping you on Dapper? [05:00] why do you need 5.3.2? [05:00] yes for now it is. [05:00] patrick-1: What is it? [05:00] does anyone know if drapes works under other DE besides Gnome? [05:00] my superior :) [05:00] Zykotick9: lemme run it from the terminal and ill PM you the error message if you dont have any objections to that.

[05:01] nsadmin: Not in this channel.

It will come back to haunt him at some time :D im just the peon doing the work :) [05:02] well if they;'re not paying me then I may suggest it. As soon as the check arrives in my email is the moment that someone can tell me how I support [05:02] Zykotick9: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/423730/ [05:03] patrick-1: Yeah, you just have to swap out php and libapache2-mod-php5. You can't backport the packages from Lucid, because that'd require you to backport apache as well (Lucid uses apache2.2, Dapper uses apache2) [05:03] Hey, I am trying to fix my X server.

[05:12] patrick-1, just a guess, if I'd really needed a custom version of PHP I would download the packaged php source apt-get source then dig inside it and customize it including version then build and install my custom packaged php. Using the existing framework of an existing package source will help you keep it in good shape with other packaged applications and it will be easier to upgrade or replace.

[05:14] would be useful to see how they were compiled [05:14] skrag: there is a firewall but it is not configured [05:14] skrag: if it uses port 80 your ISP might be blocking it. [05:14] skrag: ports are all open but with no services listening til you install and start 'em [05:14] Does anyone know how to get my wireless networks back onto GNOME Panel? [05:14] does ubuntu have a search for program feature. hate scrolling through menus. That's old school [05:14] S3 Unichrome Pro, it is what comes with those tiny VIA motherboards. [05:15] justin_: arg.. it's sort of supported in the kernel.. but they are a pain.. what's the issue? bad resolution? [05:15] I am having some issues getting some files to work properly after setting up my ubuntu server what are the proper settings to allow a php file to read another file [05:15] Scunizi, also, my internet isn't working. I did a modprobe to get the drivers working, did a iwlist scan to find the network, and assigned it with iwconfig, but the internet simply won't work. [05:15] maco: yeah i ahve my router all set up with the ports open, [05:15] Does anyone know how to get my wireless networks back onto GNOME Panel? [05:15] I'm trying to change my login screen on 9.10, can any tell me how, or where i can find a how to thing? [05:16] Scunizi, nothing happens. It is a black screen when X is booted. [05:16] skrag: no im saying thats how ubuntu is by default. all open. but um are you NAT'd by chance? [05:16] skrag: since you mentioned having a router? have you remembered to forward the ports on it? [05:16] maco: yeah the ports are forewarded, how do i find out in im NAT'd? [05:17] skrag: if you get a 192.168 instead of a real outside ip you're NAT'd. but thats what port forwarding is to get around [05:17] justin_: that's a different issue.. possibly related to network manager.. personally I use wicd for control.. seems much more stable.. As for the video it almost sounds like it's overscanning.. will ctrl+alt+F2 give you a terminal prompt? [05:18] No. [05:18] maco: yeah i get a 192.168 IP its weird because i can run the server and query it from outside, but the query program is telling me that outgoing connections could be blocked [05:18] justin_: when you boot do you see the grub menu? if so use the rescue kernel to attempt fixing the video. [05:18] anybody know how to change the login screen on 9.10 [05:18] Yeah, I can get to grub. [05:18] I did. [05:18] "xfix" does nothing. [05:19] can you do a virus scan on windows from ubuntu with a wubi install? [05:19] All I can do is get to the command line. [05:19] http://tombuntu.com/index.php/2008/01/02/how-to-replace-ubuntus-default-brown-login-window/ [05:19] skrag: if outsiders can reach it you should be ok [05:19] and u can pick up sum gdm themes [05:19] on gnome look [05:19] gmonnie, changing the GDM login theme is non-trival in 9.10+ right now - you can try Epidermis https://launchpad.net/epidermis or gdm2setup https://launchpad.net/gdm2setup - i haven't had any luck with either myself, hope your luck is better [05:19] gnome <3 [05:19] how do u update firefox in bt4 [05:19] Flannel: okay, whatever. ill rebuild apache2 also... [05:19] oh hello epoh [05:19] justin_: well.. from the command line you have the ability to diagnose and fix things.. however this one is a bit beyond me.. hopefully someone will pick up the thread and guide you through it. [05:19] does ubuntu have a search for program feature. hate scrolling through menus. That's old school [05:20] hello polarsky [05:20] heh grub2 [05:20] lol [05:20] no its old [05:20] renegaid: kubutu does.. :) it's pretty nice [05:20] nearly no documentation with grub2 [05:20] my system won't load login and so i can't enter at all. i get an error saying /etc/fstab can't be found but it is where it's supposed to be. the uuid in fstab and /dev/disk/by-uuid is different. i'm on xubuntu 9.10, what can i do? [05:20] !backtrack | eric__ [05:20] how did /etc/fstab get deleted? [05:20] eric__: There are some Ubuntu derivatives that we cannot provide support for due to repository and software changes. Please consult their websites for more information. Examples: gNewSense (support in #gnewsense), Linux Mint (see !mintsupport), LinuxMCE (support in #linuxmce), CrunchBang (support in #crunchbang), BackTrack (support in #backtrack-linux) [05:21] Hey, I am trying to fix my X server. I think it is a problem with my onboard graphics card. I removed the old one because it is broke. I also can't connect to the internet. Can someone help me? [05:21] Does anyone know if you can run a virus scan on windows from ubuntu on a wubi install? [05:21] so no one knows how to update ubuntu === myles is now known as Guest93215 [05:21] polarsky: it didn't get deleted. apparently it can't be found but i checked and it's where it's supposed to be. [05:21] eric__, [05:21] What was your question? === r00t__ is now known as DaemonLee === Guest93215 is now known as AgentX [05:21] maco: i wish it were that simple, i cant seem to figure out whats blocking my server from gettin out if theres no software firewall on my end and my router is set up right [05:21] welll [05:21] u may have a backup file [05:21] justin_: just a quick thought.... did you turn on the onboard graphics in the bios after removing the old card? [05:21] i need to know hot to update ubuntu [05:21] /etc/fstab.bak [05:21] eric__, goto terminal. [05:21] type in sudo apt-get upgrade [05:21] ok [05:21] ah, ubuntu. [05:21] skrag: dont you only have to worry about things getting in? [05:22] cp /etc/fstab.bak /etc/fstab [05:22] as root of course. [05:22] done [05:22] what now [05:22] Congratulations. You updated. [05:22] what are the right cmod settings for web serving files on apache? [05:22] :D [05:22] Can 10.04 RC be upgrade to the final release when it is released? (apt-get upgrade)? [05:22] Unless you want the new version of Ubuntu. [05:22] maco: unfortuntaly no, my server has to comunicate with the master server so other players can see it on the server list [05:22] well eric_ [05:22] polarsky: one sec. [05:22] just restart [05:22] eric__: to do it completely type .... sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade ... dist-upgrade will *not* take you to the next release. [05:22] AgentX, yes see !final in #ubuntu+1 [05:22] i men evilbug [05:22] does anyone know if i can have a mounted fat32 partition in ubuntu also mounted as a disk to a vbox guest at the same time? [05:22] srry [05:22] lol [05:22] polarsky: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [05:23] ZykoticK9: tanks [05:23] @cipher [05:23] Scunizi, Did Eric want to upgrade to the new distro? [05:23] wasutton3: no.. but you can via samba [05:23] u can use clamav [05:23] to scan /host [05:23] DaemonLee: read my post again.. dist-upgrade *doesn't* take you to the next release [05:23] polarsky: there's no backup. [05:24] Scunizi, I know. I thought he just wanted to do a normal update. [05:24] ls /etc | grep fstab [05:24] well hope. [05:24] DaemonLee: that is a full normal update [05:24] ls /etc/*fstab* [05:24] :/ [05:24] Scunizi, I'm aware. I didn't know that he wanted to do a Distro Upgrade. [05:24] Scunizi: i would except the guest is osx, and its kinda cranky with the networking [05:24] DaemonLee: again.. it's not a distro upgrade...... [05:24] polarsky: i ran cp but there is no fstab.bak [05:24] yes polarsky? [05:25] oh there is one more way [05:25] sudo blkid [05:25] Scunizi, I know that. I didn't know that he wanted to do a distro upgrade. [05:25] polarsky: talking to me? [05:25] yes [05:25] @cipher, all ur windows files are located in /host in wubi [05:25] u can use clamav to scan it [05:26] How do I get internet working from the command line? [05:26] @evilbug, use ur livedisc [05:26] and copy the fstab file from there [05:26] polarsky: ok. apparently fstab is hosting the correct uuid for root. [05:26] I am trying to figure out the best CHMOD values for severing PHP files on an Apache webserver [05:26] DaemonLee: ok.. let's clarify this.. dist-upgrade does not do a distro upgrade.. it *WILL* upgrade package to the next version if they are available for the release that he's using.. If he's on 9.10 he'll stay on 9.10 but stuff like OpenOffice might get the next version. [05:27] what is another way to run stuff besides "./"?? [05:27] polarsky:ok,great because I have a NASTY virus that took over admin priviliges and basically locked me out of windows. thank you [05:27] skrag: PATH=. and then just type it out [05:27] or /full/path/to/file [05:27] or if its a script: bash blah.sh [05:27] than use output from blkid [05:27] the UID part [05:27] and make the changes to the fstab file [05:28] juzzy thanks [05:28] polarsky, pm [05:28] How do I get internet working from the command line? [05:28] justin_: setup /etc/network/interfaces [05:29] polarsky: my fstab has the correct uuid but the system somehow can't see it. [05:29] justin_ [05:29] polarsky: could it be an xserver issue? [05:29] for some reason my screen resolution is diffrent on my log in screen [05:29] how to uninstall win2-7 Pack in ubuntu 10.04 Rc [05:29] use iwlist [05:29] polarsky: what happens is that i boot, select my kernel, boot splash comes on for a while, and then black screen instead of login. [05:29] http://www.ghacks.net/2009/04/14/connect-to-a-wireless-network-via-command-line/ [05:30] @evilbug, has that happened? [05:30] how to install kde4 ? [05:30] polarsky: yes. that's what my problem is. started today for no reason. [05:30] how to uninstall win2-7 Pack in ubuntu 10.04 Rc [05:30] and the fstab is missing [05:31] well did u attempt making new one? [05:31] via livecd [05:31] did u edit the fstab file and make it correspond with output from blkid? [05:31] polarsky: no. i looked and the fstab is there. now i'll try copying the one from the livecd onto my hdd. [05:31] great article on the new Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid: http://techbytes4.wordpress.com/ Good blog, I recommend subscribing. [05:31] How do I get internet working from the command line? [05:31] polarsky: my fstab displays everything correctly. [05:31] remember to sudo blkid [05:31] and make sure the uids match [05:31] UbuntuBoy: Please don't advertise here, thanks [05:31] apt-get install kde4 , so not works [05:31] get kubuntu [05:31] zhangchunlei: #ubuntu+1 for Lucid support, thanks. [05:32] thanks [05:32] cyclopse: try sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop [05:32] Flannel, thanks [05:32] xangua, wow it worked [05:32] thanks [05:33] How do I get internet working from the command line? [05:33] http://www.ghacks.net/2009/04/14/connect-to-a-wireless-network-via-command-line/ [05:33] justin_ read [05:33] polarsky: that did the trick. thank you very very much. [05:33] Is it going to be possible to upgrade directly from 8.10 to 10.04? [05:34] ur welcome evilbug [05:34] @justin_ make sure u check ur interface first [05:34] with ifconfig [05:34] tho most ppl are on eth0 [05:34] u might be on eth1 [05:34] just check. [05:36] Thank you, polarsky. I got it working. Didn't know the last step. [05:36] dhclient and all. [05:37] ur welcome mate. :) [05:37] YC\: No, 8.04 to 10.04, or 9.10 to 10.04. From 8.10 you have to go 8.10 > 9.04 > 9.10 > 10.04 [05:38] polarsky: thanks again for your help. [05:38] YC, sure install ubuntu 10.04 CD, click install and click format hard drive :) [05:38] Heh. Thanks. :) [05:38] hello! I am a ubuntu-newbie: I cant get notify-send to work. I have libnotify-bin version 0.4.5 and notify-osd 0.9.25 (I am on Karmic Kaola 9.10). When I type in `notify-send "test" "test"` nothing shows up. There are no error messages also. [05:39] YC, unless you have a superfast internet connection the sanest way to do it is back up all your personal documents and install 10.04 as a clean install. [05:39] thx, glad to help [05:39] Sorry (notify-osd version 0.9.24 not 25). [05:39] Yeah, does seem like it, huh? :) [05:40] Thanks for your help, folks. [05:41] YC, on the other hand if you can always do an AFK upgrade, upgrade-rinse-lather-repeat 4 times :) [05:42] Now I have the internet back on this computer. === rainofkayos is now known as SolarisBoy [05:42] All I need is help getting the Xserver working. [05:42] justin [05:42] Q: When copying something from a program then closing the program before pasting it, the copied text isn't available to be pasted. Is there a setting to change this? [05:42] oic [05:42] Yes, polarsky? [05:42] ur in x [05:42] polarsky: No I am not. I am connecting to this place via the program irssi from the command line. [05:43] Doyle: if you use gnome try Parcellite [05:44] xangua: thanks [05:44] lol u mean /exec -o ssh [05:44] Any suggestions about my notify-send issue? Anyone? [05:44] or u got internet up, so u can use irssi [05:44] I want to install multiple desktop environments, but I dont want any of my defualt apps to get messed up and I dont want my splash screen to get messed up either, or my login manager. How can i do this? I would like lxde, xfce, and Enlightenment [05:44] well patrick, u can installem, but to use em [05:44] change session type [05:45] when ur at gdm [05:45] like i can choose between gnome, flux, and openbox [05:45] polarsky, in the past they are all fighting over splash screen and login manager, at one point I had a xubuntu splash screen, a kde login manager and a gnome boot. all in one go. [05:45] I cant get notify-send to work: I have libnotify-bin version 0.4.5 and notify-osd 0.9.24 (I am on Karmic Kaola 9.10). When I type in `notify-send "test" "test"` nothing shows up. There are no error messages also. [05:46] polarsky, do I need to get a "core" version? or a "lite" version or something? [05:47] srry ive never had thoseissues turn up before [05:47] what is a good calendar app that will sync both ways with google calendar? [05:47] so, dont kno what to tell ya bro. [05:47] polarsky, which things do you install for synaptic? [05:47] Shamoun: sunbird/thunderbird = lightening .. or kalendar a kde app [05:47] well actually [05:47] im not using ubuntu [05:47] * polarsky uses sabayon [05:48] i never liked sunbird [05:48] i had openbox and flux [05:48] polarsky, ah. [05:48] and they never gave me trouble [05:48] i guess i could try kalendar [05:48] Shamoun: you'd be better off with sunbird on gnome.. kalendar will pull in tons of libs and maybe not enough to sync with google [05:49] so do I want lxde, lxde-common, or lxde-core? [05:49] kalender will force u to install kde dependancies [05:49] scunizi, hmm, good to know thanks [05:49] i think apt-get install lxde [05:49] Shamoun: if you're running kubuntu (kde) then that would be the answer. [05:49] should do the trick [05:50] same for xfce? [05:50] and E? [05:51] not sure. [05:51] hmm, well i am still running windows 7. i am trying to figure out whether i want to do ubuntu / kubuntu on this system [05:51] lxde is nice and lightweight tho [05:51] Shamoun theres nobig difference between ubuntu and kubuntu [05:51] do you have to do something special to open up ports above the 10000 range in 9.10? [05:51] Shamoun: install virtualbox from virtualbox.org and run them both in a virtual machine to see. [05:52] pick one or theother if u like gnome or kde or vice versa [05:52] more* [05:52] skrag [05:52] nope [05:53] u must however, be root to listen to ports lower than 1024 [05:53] or i mean, bind to [05:53] whatever lol. [05:53] Does anyone know how I can get my Network Manager back onto my Panel/ [05:54] right click [05:54] add to panel [05:54] Its not there :( [05:54] fillayy: network-manager resides in the notification area, so you've likely removed that somehow [05:54] geirha, how do I get it back? [05:55] !panels | fillayy [05:55] fillayy: To reset the gnome panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » [05:55] fillayy: Or right click, add to panel, notification area [05:55] sweet dude, thanks geirha [05:57] hello everyone.. awfully quiet in here [05:57] the calm before the storm [05:57] well said. [05:58] seems like the new release doesn't have much enthusiasm.. [05:59] * scunizi knows the pattern.. alls quiet toward the beginning of the next release.. most questions are technical and a little more advanced.. after a release questions are much more basic [05:59] cLuCk-cLuUk: lots.. but it's all being discussed in #ubuntu+1 [06:00] i didnt like the new color scheme [06:00] i'm having trouble mounting my windows partition on ubuntu remix 9.10 [06:00] anyone know anything about apt-cacher-ng [06:00] how do i mount? [06:00] press the icon of the mountable media [06:01] should be on ur lower toolbar [06:01] and press mount [06:01] u can also change settings to add automounting [06:01] i can mount anything else, just not the windows partition [06:02] farboy [06:02] install ntfs-config [06:02] than go to system > administration > ntfs configuration tool [06:03] fatboy-ubuntu-re: try this command from a terminal, and see if it produces any error output. Replace sda1 with your windows partition number: sudo udisks --mount /dev/sda1 [06:03] http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/mountwindows [06:03] Ah sorry that's lucid [06:03] the link i just posted [06:03] is for lucid [06:03] should work anyhow tho === bullgard is now known as bullgard4 [06:05] gotta run, night folks. [06:05] night [06:09] has anyone had any luck getting 9.10 to run on a Dell Studio 15 (one of the newer ones with the intel wifi chips)? [06:09] Can you wifi into a usb dongle to get to ubuntu? [06:11] zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz [06:11] Alcor, please take that to #ubuntu-offtopic [06:11] bazhang: He did ask a question [06:12] k [06:13] I am trying to combine the applications, system, and places menus into one but can't figure it out! [06:14] whats the game that its a 2D platform shooter with the players looking like kirby [06:14] the title was german i think [06:14] Kasm279: padman? [06:14] the_file: there is an applet called Gnome Menu that you can add [06:14] Kasm279: teeworlds? [06:14] YES [06:14] thanks you alkisg [06:14] np [06:15] i couldn't remember tha name and i dont have an ubuntu machine ATM [06:15] anyway, later [06:17] I guess game questions are more "on-topic" than the tech question I asked... [06:17] Alcor: the one you asked before didn't make much sense [06:18] I guess I should have asked if the usb port was bi-directional in ubuntu... [06:19] Alcor: yes.. and a usb wifi dongle will typically work for connections if it's the right chipset [06:20] Alcor: I used a linksys usb600n for a long time on this machine, worked great. [06:21] scunizi How do you know which chipset to use? Is there a list? [06:21] the_file: right click on your panel up top, click Add to Panel, find the Gnome Menu (not the custom Gnome menubar) ad add that [06:21] hello, i don't understand this command: arunsb@laptop:/tmp/initrd-src$ gzip -dc  /tmp/initrd.img-2.6.28-11-generic  | cpio -id can any one help me? why we use -c to extract initrd image? is any other command or switch? [06:21] Anyone familiar with synching Android to Ubuntu via wifi? [06:21] greezmunkey thx Greez [06:22] Hi, Quick question I have a laptop running ubuntu its a bit laggy with only 512mb I was wondering if I purchased 1gb more would I see a decent increase in speed? Also my laptop currently is using 533mhz the extra ram is 667mhz which is compatable with my laptop will these two be compatible with each other? [06:22] Alcor: not sure about a list.. greezmunkey gave one suggestion.. you might also check in ##linux or #hardware.. but #hardware is more OS neutral [06:23] scunizi thx [06:23] scunizi: I hade to compile the driver though, not an easy option, took three tries to get it stable! After that though...nice. [06:23] Traveler: for best performance and to reduce "problems" you should match type and speed of ram [06:23] greezmunkey: I've used a netgear.. with no issue.. but I can't remember the model [06:23] how do i make this symlink? The workaround is to make symlink 'ctools/delegator/plugins/tasks/i18ntaxonomy.pages.inc' to member:file 'i18n/i18ntaxonomy/i18ntaxonomy.pages.inc'. [06:23] is that ln -s ctools/delegator/plugins/tasks/i18ntaxonomy.pages.inc i18n/i18ntaxonomy/i18ntaxonomy.pages.inc ? [06:24] Bohemian: that appears right. Maybe check the manpage for 'ln' [06:24] Bohemian: I'l quite tired, so maybe doublecheck the manpage [06:25] gh0ghnus: gzip -dc uncompresses to stdout which means the results get fed to cpio which extracts (-i) and creates directories (-d) as needed... [06:25] scunizi, that was my initial thought but the shop is out of stock. [06:26] how can i block a user on irc in pidgin? [06:26] Traveler: then get 2.. of the same type that's available and sell the old one.. [06:26] Traveler: it's worth the wait to get it right. 1GB of ddr2 is about 20-25 dollars right now. put as much as you can in you LT, and make it compatible speed/size, otherwise you're inviting trouble. [06:27] azlon: pidgin is a good IM client but not a good IRC client.. you might switch to xchat or irssi [06:28] greezmunkey, if only it was $20-25 for laptop sodimm were looking at like $40 here in australia [06:28] scunizi: dude, you're still here? you were here when i went to sleep last night, now its 8:30 am and you're still here... [06:28] Traveler: Ah, exchange rates - be happy you're not in Grece right now... [06:28] Greece [06:29] azlon: it's 10:28 pm here. last night I couldn't sleep so stayed up till 2am.. 'bout ready to go to bed [06:29] scunizi: PST as am I [06:29] Losha: thanks, is it possible to do this work without using cpio or first use gzip and then use cpio (without pipe). gzip says unknown suffix if you remove second part and i can't find how to do this. [06:29] greezmunkey: yepper.. so.cal. [06:29] ugh, i miss PST... [06:30] well i think i might go with scunizi idea and just get the faster and ditch the old one if they don't work togeather [06:30] scunizi: im from sac originally [06:30] ? === Noose215 is now known as JumboJellyfish [06:30] azlon: my old home town.. antioch [06:30] I agree, with scunizi, worked 12 hrs today... Good night all! [06:30] no kidding, i am from placerville [06:31] gh0ghnus: try: gzip -dc < /tmp/initrd.img-2.6.28-11-generic | cpio -id (I added a '<' sign) [06:31] Night all! === ubuntu is now known as teknon [06:33] oh yeah, tomorrow is the big day... 10.04 [06:33] is it smart to upgrade immediately or should i wait a couple weeks for bugs to be worked out? [06:34] azlon, depends how critical the system is [06:34] lol, ok so i will wait [06:34] azlon, and what redundancy you have available [06:34] azlon, :-) [06:34] azlon: wait until it stabilizes. A month or so... [06:34] azlon, if it is critical, you should have a tested backup/restore procedure anyway [06:34] mosno: by no means is this system critical, but i dont want to put up with the hassle [06:35] azlon, then what Losha said sounds reasonable [06:35] awesome [06:36] Losh: thanks. why we can't remove second part?

[06:38] gh0ghnus: you can, but the whole point is to decompress (gzip) then unpack (cpio). What use is just decompressing it? [06:38] maco, Alright. I'm having a difficult time fixing the Windows boot. So far nothing I've tried works.... I'll see where that gets me.

It is less important to me than getting the xserver running. It is just limiting me further as I can use multiple consoles to do other things like surf the web with elinks at the same time, looking for a solution.

I need DVD of a OS which you need to send to me [07:24] justin_: you can start by answering my question above... [07:25] Plustax]: maybe and maybe not.

Its needed to load and unload modules [07:28] Sinanthiel, ubuntu is easy to install, and there's lots of guys that can help you here [07:28] What about GFS [07:28] Justin_: sounds like you'll need an xorg.conf [07:28] friendforall, this is not the place to ask; try a local lug or contact shipit.com [07:28] Well, I'm on my nintendo ds and can't browse the internet.That's why I'm asking questions [07:28] Hey guys.

[07:29] Justin_: search for: openchrome xorg.conf endsection ,should be ok [07:29] rickfisher: Openchrome is the video drivers that run VIA onboard video. [07:30] Rickfisher: low power and low performance [07:30] ActionParsnip, can you help him? [07:30] justin_: I found this on google: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenChrome [07:31] Rickfisher: hopefully my recommended search will work [07:31] Losha: So did I. That document did not help me at all. [07:31] is i have a tarball, whats the easiest way to install the driver or software?? [07:31] can canyone make a suggestion on a mini laptop that would run ubuntu? [07:31] ennui: I would buy an ASUS and put eeebuntu on it.

[07:33] can I get rid of compizconfig without having any ill effects on OS ? [07:33] And it's 3 months past warranty [07:33] Kaze, of course [07:33] is any one using a mirodia webcam..... [07:33] I really could you a walk through or a web site or anything else on how to extract that file to an ext2 partition on my memory card if anyone is kind enough to respond.

Always a pain with my Dual screen desktop. [07:35] justin_: tricky. Can you background the irc program temporarily using ctrl-Z and the fg command?

D: [07:42] Since I am running Ubuntu Server (9.10 x64) and the "/boot/grub/menu.lst" doesn't exist when I'd need to alter the boot parameters, am I supposed to create the file myself or will I always have to bring up the GRUB boot menu to edit them ? [07:43] rautamiekka: You likely have grub2; you edit files in /etc/grub.d/ instead. [07:44] !grub2 | rautamiekka [07:44] rautamiekka: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 [07:44] geirha: Now that you mention it, yes I do have GRUB2. I'll check up that folder once I get home.

D: [07:45] ennui: it's all marketing and funny names. just look at the actual hardware inside :D [07:46] I quite enjoy the funny names. :3 [07:46] ennui: I'm not sure what you're looking for, but I want something more powerful than an Atom CPU and Intel GPU. [07:46] ennui: In my mind, that makes what I want _not_ a netbook. [07:47] Hey guys, i want something like limewire except better cause limewire shits me... got any names for me? [07:47] Frostwire? [07:48] eMule? [07:48] torrents (transmissionbt)? [07:48] That's nothing like Limewire.

[07:55] Do I need to install it prior to running the script? The script won't do that for me? [07:55] Hi! I upgraded to Karmic, and otherwise ok, but when compiz is on my desktop is completely black (not even icons showing). How to fix/troubleshoot this? === derpderp is now known as PigFlu [07:55] Threetimes: Right, you must install it first. The script is looking for a particular header file. [07:56] Okay, I'll try that [07:56] Threetimes: Take a look at the last few "checking" lines in your paste. [07:57] Ok, what version should I install, I want flightgear 2, do I need simgear 2? Simgear 1 is in the repos... [07:57] i need an image viewer close or similar to Windows Image viewer in ubuntu. [07:57] one that i can use the shortcut keys to navigate though the image folders [07:58] DJ_HaMsTa: qiv is pretty good. pqiv, also. [07:58] DJ_HaMsTa: I' [07:59] DJ_HaMsTa: I'm not familiar with Windows Image viewers, but gthumb and gqview are some image viewers with rather good features. More akin to Irfanview I'd assume, if you're familiar with that. [08:00] hi all, 10.4 is cool... but... where do I go from here? :) [08:00] Gentoo? :P [08:00] What is the gnome-pdf-annotation tool? In KDE I used to use okular, which rocked [08:00] Quick question [08:00] ark3qqq: what type of processor would you prefer? and could you find it in a laptop with a 10 inch screen? [08:00] !ask | uofm49426: [08:00] uofm49426:: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [08:01] ennui: I'd be fine with a CULV or ULV intel chip, whatever they're called, but I'd prefer something like an i5. Problem with that, unfortunately, is then I'm stuck with an Intel graphics chip too. [08:02] you know the add/remove program in ubuntu/debian/xfce/ etc what is that programs command name [08:03] uofm49426, apt-get remove ? [08:03] Hi all, don't know whether this is the right place to ask this but I'm failing to have my tap interfaces being assigned IP addresses dynamically [08:03] DJ_HaMsTa: nope, he means the graphical interface [08:04] no it didnt install im trying lubuntu [08:04] uofm49426: synaptic [08:04] ennui: Oh, I missed half your question. I don't want anything smaller than 11 inches anyhow. I think the Alienware M11 (or something like that) is as small as I'd want to go. [08:04] not synptic its not part of it [08:04] any kernel/lirc devs arround that can check this issue? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lirc/+bug/570700 [08:04] uofm49426: I think you might mean software-center [08:05] i think so [08:05] uofm49426: only there doesn't seem to be a packacge with that name... hmm... [08:06] but that's the command-line anyhow [08:06] ark3qqq: do you want to power for gaming? or video playing/processing? [08:06] lulbuntu lol [08:06] lubuntu [08:07] i want a all lxde desktop [08:07] ennui: Gaming would be nice; for me that means dual-boot. More importantly I want to experiment with OpenCL (or equivalent) for financial applications. That's why I want decent CPU and discrete GPU. === hacker_kid is now known as Guest19113 [08:07] uofm49426: interesting. I hadn't heard of lubuntu before. What's the main advantage? [08:08] it like xfce but faster ligther yet [08:08] uofm49426: sounds good. What are the main disadvantages? [08:09] hi all [08:09] less crap taking up memory [08:10] What is the gnome-pdf-annotation tool? In KDE I used to use okular, which rocked [08:10] uofm49426: that's not a disadvantage :) [08:10] i just hope the ati driver got better [08:10] i only have a xpress 1200 [08:11] anyone know of a good better program then reconstructer [08:12] so i can make my own lxde live img [08:13] Does anyone know if there were changes in Nvidia xserver in 10.4?

I'm a non-paying user. [08:18] Ileden, the idea is that you'll get a friends list to share playlists etc, using Facebook. However, I cant connect and I'm told it "uses an Internet Explorer component", which is why connecting using Wine doesnt work. what im looking for is adding some kind of IE support === dgtlchlk is now known as dgtl|screen [08:18] Ileden, should be for all i believe. check the homepage (im a premium user) [08:18] where are the logs?

[09:26] edvinas: ifnot reboot system sudo apt-get install rcconf , disable wine in rcconf , if you seee it, run fsck , reboot and cross your fingers [09:26] no worries [09:26] geekphreak: okay, thanks again. will let you know how it went.

[09:36] itilious: purge? [09:37] i used it to "install" itunes and all it did was mess up even my ubuntu system further === johnson is now known as Guest86078 [09:37] itilious: you want to uninstall wine? [09:37] geekphreak, do i purge wine specifically or is there a "system" purge i can do to clean out files i hope are just real junk installation/uninstallations [09:38] geekphreak, yes, i already checked off the wine entrys in synnaptic manager and checked for complete removal [09:38] itilious: afaik there is nothing like system purge, i would just purge wine installation [09:38] !lucid [09:38] 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 - Await the release in #ubuntu-release-party [09:38] geekphreak, but wine is still under my list of programs [09:38] itilious: sudo apt-get remove --purge wine [09:38] or synaptic as you want it :) [09:39] salve [09:39] it ran the uninstallation in snaptic but its still there as well as after i ran the purge command [09:39] itilious: do you mean there is an empty entry of wine in your menu ? [09:39] no, its still there as well as the two apps i installed [09:40] utorrent 2.0.1 and itunes [09:40] does anybody know where google chrome has its files on ubutnu? [09:40] itunes is what completely screwed things up, i even have like 15 entrys in my program list in ubuntu for wine [09:40] Nataniel_PL, ~/.config/google-chrome [09:41] Thx [09:41] itilious: if ~/.wine/ is where wine stores most of the stuff I think. I would guess purge removes that too, but you might want to check that too. [09:42] i am writing a script to install nagios, i pasted it [just the written part] in http://paste2.org/get/797840, executng the script echos the message " [26: illegal number:", anyhelp please? [09:45] actually i'm trying to backup my session (tabs) so i could reinstall system, but i can't find files it was backupes to... [09:46] how can i uninstall a program that shows uninstalled in the software manager? [09:46] nmvictor nagios is easy enough to install by hand, why bother with scripts in the first place? === clem is now known as clemyeats [09:46] itilious: wine still there? [09:46] itilious how did this appliocation install? [09:46] its not checked off in the synaptic manager either, or anything close to wine [09:47] through the software center [09:47] try: sudo apt-get purge wine [09:47] "ubuntu software center" but i remeved it with the synaptic manager for complete removal [09:47] 1 more day :-D [09:47] try this itilious: sudo apt-get purge wine [09:48] geekphreak: I can't seem to run startx/fsck from recovery mode. Do I need to go into another shell cus I dont see the commands help. Sorry if I am being obtuse, not very good at the whole terminal thing yet. [09:48] stevecam: to ubuntu right? [09:48] Walrus23, ran it and its still in the programs list [09:48] edvinas: startx did not work too? [09:48] yep [09:48] itilious: maybe it's just the menus that are still there? [09:48] itilious: wine can add menu items to your home dir.... [09:48] geekphreak: No, it says command not found. [09:48] itilious: which menu do you use? [09:48] itilious, are you trying to remove the program that was installed in wine or wine itself? [09:49] stevecam: to Lucid right? [09:49] edvinas: huh really, ?? did you uninstall anything? [09:49] but when i try to set torrent files to permanently associate to another client other than utorrent i dont even see my other target choice [09:49] nmvictor, yes [09:49] stevecam, both [09:49] I see TONS of "a wine application" listings in the program list menu for file association [09:49] itilious, well, dont forget that there are files in your home directory in a folder called .wine [09:50] stevecam, i manually deleted them [09:50] itilious: sudo apt-get remove --purge wine; rm -rf ~/.wine [09:50] Sometimes it takes awhile for the wine to clear out of the menu [09:50] geekphreak: I noticed I get some errors in recovery mode when somethign similiar to 'trying to mount from disk'is run. [09:51] That too, I came back after a few hours last time I removed wine and they were magically gone. [09:51] stevecam: I can wait to see Lucid, I can just smell goog things though its not out yet, its gonna rock like jaunty, I liked jaunty more than karmic,i have never known why [09:51] itilious: for the menus, "find ~ | grep .desktop" will give you a list of personal menu items [09:51] itilious, but i see the problem, this looks like it was done by a program that is not related to the installer, you are going to have to do this by hand [09:51] i am writing a script to install nagios, i pasted it [just the written part] in http://paste2.org/get/797840, executng the script echos the message " [26: illegal number:", anyhelp please? [09:51] edvinas: full message would be nice , did you uninstall anything or run an update or system crashed anything? [09:51] nmvictor, i didnt notice much of a difference with the last upgrade [09:52] except that firefox 3.5 was terrible [09:52] stevecam: i only moved to it because the kernel version in jaunty was just too backwards [09:53] stevecam: lol [09:53] and try reporting problems with 3.5 in firefox, they like to pretend that they dont exist === Termana|AFK is now known as Termana [09:54] "its not slower, its much faster" [09:54] geekphreak: No, it was a normal shutdown. But the error showing (and its long one) 'Failed to read block at offset 10583' and ÉXT4-fs (sda6): error loading journal'. [09:54] "i find it crashes less" [09:54] stevecam, so i just manually delete the .desktop files the are associated with wine and i'm good? [09:55] edvinas: yup thats error alright [09:55] geekphreak: I can retype more of it, which parts are useful to you? [09:55] clemyeats, thanks for the command :) === cwe_65_ is now known as ce_nies [09:55] itilious: you're welcome. [09:55] geekphreak: Okay, progress at least. Any chance of recovering? [09:55] itilious, i don't know, i would help you out with this but i have to leave in 5 minutes [09:56] but i can see why removing wine wouldnt help [09:56] itilious: I usually explain commands when I give them.. I don't like throwing them at people like that, but this channel is extremely busy ;) [09:56] Blindingly annoying question everybody has been asking(and will be for a bit yet) - what is the exact time for the "General Availability" of 10.04? [09:56] edvinas: i would boot the system with live cd at this time , and run fsck if possible [09:56] edvinas: any important data on drive? === pinoyskull_ is now known as pinoyskull [09:57] Hello :) === Votan is now known as Votan|off [09:58] geekphreak: Okay, will try that. Not really much important stuff. This has happened to me beofre (twice) and I just did a reinstall both times. But reinstalling the os twice a week is a bit much so figured I would try fixing it. [09:58] geekphreak: gonna try the livecd and fsck idea. [09:58] edvinas: fixing is a good idea, you learn something :) [09:58] i have one question but dont know if i can ask here.... ive been searching google but no solid results atm... === cwe_65 is now known as ce_nies [09:59] im trying to check my ATI temperature over SSH but it's always giving my this error [09:59] clemyeats, i'm breaking it down right now cuz it completely fixed what I've been frustrated with [09:59] ERROR - X needs to be running to perform ATI Overdrive(TM) commands [09:59] i learned my lesson, dont even try to emulate windows, just break free :) [09:59] is there a way to solve this? [10:00] thanks for your help everyone [10:00] itilious: ok, let me know if you want help with understanding it. [10:00] itilious: good luck buddy :) [10:00] geekphreak: Apart from this 'issue' i am really loving ubuntu. Working on my websites and having virtual envs with a proper terminal is awesome... [10:00] edvinas: its a rock solid system , secure fast :) [10:02] itilious: why did you want itunes on ubuntu, its such a slow application!! [10:02] geekphreak: livecd is doing its thing. thanks for taking your time to help me out. its highly appreciated. [10:03] edvinas: no worries good luck mate [10:05] hi [10:05] Hello, I have some knowledge about configuring bind, but I have a special question. I know about SplitDNS but exactly this is my problem. I have domain.local in our lan and domain.com for the internet. Now I need to resolve xxx.domain.com inside the lan to an internal IP, on the Internet it needs to resolve to an extrenal IP. The problem is that I have no controll over the external DNS Server, so I can not setup a split dns easily because I [10:05] would have to monitor the external DNS and that's not easy as I also do not have transfer capabilietes. Is there a way to tell bind to be authoritiv for xxx.domain.com only? Or can I tell bind to be authoritive for domain.com, but only answer xxx.domain.com directly and let him forward questions regarding the other hosts to the real dns server?

[11:25] lxsysweb: Yes. That was a netsplit. [11:25] yea on my destop [11:26] * Ken8521 never gets caught in netsplits for some reason. [11:26] which is suppose to act as the router [11:26] red2kic: is that like the northern lights of the internet? [11:26] linda_: you can try to use firestarter [11:26] right [11:27] cant use iptable [11:27] wud prefer that [11:27] cos the network manager is not stable [11:28] linda_, try to keep the replies on a single line. Because of the netsplit a lot of people are reconnecting. [11:28] ok [11:28] I wanted to install windows and after that kubuntu, but after installing windows kubuntu partytioning was a bit weared (didn't show any partytions) so I've opened gparted in livecd ubuntu (livecd of gparted doesn't work on my PC) and it also showed whole disk unformatted, but when i start installed windows it shows all ntfs partytions so I believe that this partytions (ntfs and ext4) are still there, but why nor kubuntu installing, nor ub [11:29] so [11:31] NatanielPL: is terminal open ? [11:31] Hi people [11:31] NatanielPL: can you pastebin sudo cfdisk [11:31] NatanielPL, perhaphs wrong device? [11:32] who can help me?I have a panasonic printer KX-MC6020 and I cannot find a compatible driver. Any suggestion?? [11:32] hello , is there any good tut for configuring ubunto to turn it into a server [11:33] dedicated server [11:33] idrissdev: there is a ubuntu-server version , download/install it [11:33] idrissdev, Download the latest version of Ubuntu Server 9.10 [11:33] does anyone know how to change the gdm resolution? i'm not sure where the config file would be [11:33] in the install options you can select webserver if'm not mistaken [11:33] i'm [11:33] LAMP [11:33] yep [11:33] haloo [11:34] idrissdev: I think you can select LAMP under tasksel. [11:34] and i remember that windows instalation where showing some error some time, but suddenly it stopped... [11:35] cause ubunto server can't run on my computer x86 [11:35] looks like that noone knows how help me with ubuntu driver for Panasonic KX-MC6020?? [11:35] idrissdev, should be able to run fine... [11:35] can someone please help me with choppy video streaming in web browsers? [11:35] idrissdev: it can, you need to select a 32bit version. [11:35] no i already tried to install it [11:36] i have the officiel cd === rapha_ is now known as rapha [11:36] idrissdev, what bit version is that? [11:36] 64 [11:36] idrissdev: you need a 32 bit version [11:37] NatanielPL: did you pastebin sudo cfdisk ? [11:37] yep. just download the 32bit version [11:37] can i download it [11:37] http://www.ubuntu.com [11:37] idrissdev: yup [11:37] thanks i will do [11:37] ive tried countless workarounds and am here on last resorts... [11:37] see you ;) thaks [11:38] geekphreak I'd have to start some livecd, wait, i think i'll first try chkdsk from windows console [11:38] does it mean that ubuntu 10.04 rc will not be the same the ubuntu .10.04 [11:38] clp75, printing and linux is still in the last century. it depends entirely on manufacturers providing proper specs for creation of drivers or just the drivers themselves.... hopefully some smart cookie will developer something like ndiswrapper for printer drivers sometime. [11:38] linda_, #ubuntu+1 [11:39] ooo so..bad news...:S thank you.. [11:39] I found a driver-like that looks like to work on redhat [11:39] .... [11:39] clp75, unless of course your printer is exposed over a network via samba...then it gets much easier. [11:39] also does anyone know of a linux filesystem that supports file history, it would be interesting to have a filesystem that i use to software development that keeps old versions of files, instead of doing it manually [11:39] samba looks like to not recognize the printer host [11:40] i've heard of such things, eg elephantfs, but can anyone recommend one ? [11:40] bouma, none yet. i use git instead. [11:40] git?...what is git?? [11:40] airtonix: git? how do you use that, can you mount it, like through a userspace fs [11:40] (fuse) [11:40] bouma, no. [11:41] airtonix: so you manually commit, etc [11:41] clp75, version control system [11:41] ah ... git is not for the printer... [11:41] ;) [11:41] bouma, yes. [11:41] airtonix: but is there a nice dragon-drop proggy that lets you access it and manage logarithmic history etc [11:41] bouma, there is talk of a new FileSystem with revision qualities. [11:41] couple more days, is everyone excited? [11:41] ok..thanks people..see you later.. [11:42] bouma, not for git yet. theres rabbitcvs plugins for nautilus and thunar though. [11:42] bouma, rabbit svn or cvs i think, can't remember [11:42] would KMS fix choppy video playback in firefox and swiftfox both using adobe flash player 10 with Ipv6 off and pipelining on and max requests increased? [11:43] airtonix: so what appart from chronological appearance date, what are the distinguishing differences between cvs, svn, git .. etc ? [11:43] cya folks, have a good one :d [11:43] what is the best version of ubuntu? [11:43] elisa87: 10.04 [11:43] elisa87: :P [11:43] How can i make a NTFS partition accessable by my user? [11:43] bouma, i cant be to sure but my favourite aspect of git over the other two is how it doesn't pollute every single directory with hidden folders and files. [11:43] elisa87: what computer will you install it on ? [11:44] bouma: good luck man [11:44] sony sr gyb 590 [11:44] If anyone else plans to use or uses ubuntu 10.04 as a base for xbmc on an ASRock ION 330HT family or some other manufacture with a "Nuvoton 677x" IR reciver, please post on this bug to get a working driver: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lirc/+bug/570700 [11:44] geekphreak: cheers, thanks [11:44] geekphreak: still havent mkfs'ed,, im thinking of ext4 [11:44] damn i hate that when you reply and they log off just before you hit enter [11:44] ah well [11:45] it would be nice if the server could save a one liner, and replay it when they log in. .. ah well, KISS i guess [11:45] let it go man [11:45] le bonge, its french for bonge, bonge on man [11:45] twiztid : i dont know wich version of ubuntu you are using? but here is some reading on the topic : http://blog.nachtarbeiter.net/2009/08/19/choppy-flash-video-in-full-screen-mode-on-ubuntu/ [11:46] * unimatrix9 off to have an meal [11:46] hyoersteam : should be automatic unless it didnt unmount properly from windows [11:47] Hello, I followed the instructions here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Internet/ConnectionSharing under "Ubuntu 9.10 Method" to set up ICS.

Anyway, people don't look too kindly on offtopic stuff, so I'll shut up. [12:04] rofl i've never liked officious types... [12:04] Hi guys. I recently tried out Truecrypt, and made a virtual drive file on my usb stick. After a while, I decided I did not need the file any longer and got rid of it as per Truecrypt instructions (mount file, remove insides, unmount file, delete file). However, the 3GB of space I set aside for the file did not get recovered by the USB drive. What's going on? [12:05] Ari_Lazarus: format the drive. [12:05] I'm hoping it wouldn't have to come to that. [12:05] Ari_Lazarus: delete partition table [12:05] * Walrus23 pokes dudeface and nudges him to join the offtopic channel === Suzaku-San is now known as Tendency [12:05] if it was a file and not a partition.. deleting the file should do it? [12:06] *should* being the operative word. [12:06] Can anyone help me connect to my WLAN? Ubuntu wont show it, but it will show others. [12:06] Tendency how close are you to your router? [12:06] Tendency, perhaps you're too far from it? maybe it's a hidden access point? [12:06] Walrus23, rather close. It works fine in Windows. [12:06] Ari_Lazarus: just an idea, is the file moved into .Trash-1000 or similar on the usb drive? [12:06] Hm. [12:07] Tendency: move further away? [12:07] look in the partition table to see if there's still a partition for it? [12:07] C-S-B-N900 has the general idea [12:07] Move further from the router? [12:07] No, I can't say it is. It's empty [12:07] Tendency: does it show with iwlist scan? [12:07] Ari_Lazarus, yeah, lxsysweb has a point... make sure you can see hidden files and folders and see where it went.... you can also use a program like xdiskusage to see what's using up the space. [12:07] How would I look in the partition table? [12:07] nope [12:08] I'm gussing I just type iwlist scan in the terminal? [12:08] yup. [12:08] Tendency in windows on the machine in question, download a program called inSSIDer and check your wireless isnt mixed in with the other wireless networks, if it is it may help to change the channel on your router [12:09] Kk thanks [12:09] iwlist scan just says "wlan0 No scan results" [12:09] Tendency are you on that machine now? [12:09] The Ubuntu one? [12:09] No. [12:09] yeah [12:09] Vista laptop [12:09] oh ok [12:10] give that inSSIDer a try [12:10] it is freeware [12:10] i've had similar problems with my laptop but i've narrowed it down to hardware [12:10] Anybody here prepared to assist me with a small little samba question regarding permission inheritance?

[12:14] and.. where is the main grub config file in ubuntu? [12:14] hi can anyone tell me what the files in /etc/event.d/ are needed for, i heard they are obsolete now, since all the scripts are in /etc/init, is that correct? can i delete /etc/event.d? [12:15] miguel000: /etc/default/grub in Karmic and higher, /boot/grub/menu.lst in Jaunty and lower [12:15] ah I was searching for the menu.lst, didn't know it changed, thank you [12:15] lanoxx: Better not touch it, they are kept for backwards compatibility or something [12:15] has to go... byes. [12:16] theadmin, in the release notes there was written something about manually migrating some of them [12:16] hi [12:17] Is there a way to upgrade a 32 bit ubuntu install to a 64-bit one? Or do I have to re-install? [12:17] SammyTheSnake: No, you have to reinstall === dk is now known as davidk01 [12:18] theadmin: I suspected as such. it's a shame, but hardly the kind of thing I'd *expect* to be able to do ;-) [12:18] SammyTheSnake: Uh, Ubuntu install process is extremely simple [12:19] SammyTheSnake: Or I must be misunderstanding [12:19] I tried upgrading to Karmic Koala from Jaunty once. Got some kind of major hard disk failure. [12:20] How do I make the cache thingy forget my password? That is, when I use sudo it stores it to a while [12:20] Stuck with Jaunty ever since :p [12:20] theadmin: it's not so much the install as the configuration of my various applications etc. Some of that can be done by just copying the /etc/ directory and the various ~/.myapp/ directories, but it's still a faff :-( [12:20] theadmin: sudo -k is sufficient [12:20] jrib: -k? hm... Didn't know that option [12:20] for some reason grubs labels my windows 7 backup partition that came with the notebook as Windows Vista (loader), so maybe there is also something wrong with the windows 7 loader : it says: insmod ntfs, chainloader 91 [12:20] s/91/+1 [12:21] theadmin: you want to do this only this once right? Not have it forget sooner everytime?

[12:46] patrik: check your ~/.xsession-errors file [12:46] patrik: that's giving me issues at the moment, as it's growing very rapidly and being constantly opened and closed by the system [12:46] hey has there been any official word from Ubuntu as to how long they'll support Ubuntu 8.10 LTS? [12:47] Taev: 8.10 was not an LTS release. It is supported until April 30th 2010. [12:47] Taev: 10.04 is the new LTS isn't it? [12:47] !lts [12:47] LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server. The current LTS version of Ubuntu is !Hardy (Hardy Heron 8.04). The next LTS release is scheduled to be !Lucid (Lucid Lynx 10.04) [12:47] how do i find out which version ubuntu my install is? [12:48] i think its 8.10 Im just not sure [12:48] Taev: yes it is (ubuntu home page) and so 8.04 was the last one and will become unsupported soon after 11.04 is realsed [12:48] gusty gibbon maybe? [12:48] !version [12:48] To find out what version of Ubuntu you have, type « lsb_release -a » in a !shell - To know the available version of a package, « apt-cache policy » [12:48] Taev: lsb_release -a [12:48] when comes the release of ubntu 10.04 ? [12:48] arcsky: Tomorrow, await the release in #ubuntu-release-party ! [12:48] Ubuntu 8.0.4.4 Hardy [12:48] has anyone got wubi working [12:48] does makactive not work in grub anymore??? [12:48] so when will it stopped being supported? [12:49] !Hardy | Taev [12:49] Taev: Ubuntu 8.04-LTS (Hardy Heron) was the eighth release of Ubuntu. Downloading: http://releases.ubuntu.com/8.04 - See !lts for more details. [12:49] Taev: er, that had less information that I thought it did. [12:49] richthegeek, it reports some evolution problems and a couple of glib problems. The thing is that the memory must be allocated in kernel space since no process is using any significant amount of memory. [12:49] !Hardy | Dr-Ubuntu [12:49] Dr-Ubuntu, please see my private message [12:49] Taev: It is supported until 2011 on the desktop and 2013 for server. [12:49] Im hesitant to upgrade, the last time I did it, it hosed my system. My server has my web server, and a MySQL Databases I can't loose [12:49] even one days downtime hurts [12:50] Taev: April next year for 8.04 [12:50] crap [12:50] patrik: report on Launchpad? easiest way to get deep-level experts to help [12:50] are there any features in ubuntu 10.04 or its just new purple color ? [12:50] Taev: 8.04 is better than 10.04 in certain ways :) [12:50] Taev: back it up more! [12:50] is Adept's auto upgrade feature anygood? [12:50] arcsky: Lucid discussion is in #ubuntu+1 [12:50] Taev: you have untill April 2011 with it being supported on desktoip [12:50] sebsebseb: I just said that. [12:50] hi, i'd like wicd as a backup network manager when n-etwork-manager isnt playing nicely at uni. but i definitely dont want to delete network-manager (again). any ideas [12:51] Pici: well you said 2011, not April, but yes pretty much [12:51] Pici: I said it first! [12:51] Pici: like it matters... [12:51] richthegeek: :O [12:51] Simple question, what desktop do you use on your Ubuntu distribution ? Gnome ? KDE ? Other ? [12:51] I prefer KDE on 8.0.4 [12:51] richthegeek: Taev: yes it is (ubuntu home page) and so 8.04 was the last one and will become unsupported soon after 11.04 is realsed [12:51] I couldn't stand the new version of KDE4 [12:51] Taev: oh right you like KDE 3? [12:51] okidokia: Gnome, ofc [12:52] Hey again, I searched through the list of supported packages in the backports and I didn't find what I was looking for... I only wanted to update transmission so that it can use magnet links, is there some other way??? [12:52] my ubuntu locked up, so I rebooted it and now it doesnt want to boot and when it does, it hard locks during the startup sound. no compiz, tried vesa driver, apparently its something else [12:52] I was searching for a lighter desktop than Gnome, but I can't find anything interesting [12:53] Taev: yeah KDE 3 is pretty nice, sadly though it's on the verge of not being supported by upstream, well I guess it isn't now. Anyway it's fine to use KDE 3 in Ubuntu 8.04, whilst still supported by security updates. [12:53] okidokia: XCFE is the only alternative - you can make Gnome lighter easily enough though [12:53] Hi to all [12:53] okidokia: Xfce or LXDE [12:53] richthegeek> Is there any light version package of Gnome ? [12:54] I have a directory which consists of five text files [12:54] sebsebseb: I agree, KDE-3.5 is nice [12:54] okidokia: I think there are some distros aimed specifically at that, not sure the name though [12:54] richthegeek: okidokia Uh no there are loads of alternatives to Gnome and KDE, XFCE is one of them sure, but there is also LXDE which is apparnatly more light waight than XFCE. There's also Fluxbox and IceVM and loads of window managers for more generaly more experienced users, but newbies can use them as well. [12:54] how can I zip individual files from that directory witha single command?? [12:54] !desktop [12:54] A desktop environment is what "puts the pieces of a !GUI together". The available desktop environments in Ubuntu are !GNOME (ubuntu-desktop), !KDE (kubuntu-desktop), !Xfce (xubuntu-desktop), IceWM, !Fluxbox, WindowMaker (wmaker), FVWM and others - See also !Flavors [12:55] sebsebseb: yes there are tons of WMs out there, but I tend to categorise them into "toy" and "real" [12:55] luckymurali: zip [12:55] usr13: yeah, but RIP KDE basicalley, well it's dieing [12:55] usr13: (KDE 3 that is) [12:55] luckymurali: you really mean zip? Not gzip? And you want them all in a single archive or in five separate ones? [12:55] sebsebseb, you dont like kde4 [12:55] richthegeek> I'm gonna search for desktop derived from Gnome, thanks for your advices ;) [12:55] I need five seperate ones [12:56] luckymurali: use a for loop [12:56] !offtopic [12:56] #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! [12:56] Kabiigon: not much no, I can use it though as of KDE 4.3, without just going back to Gnome soon after :) also like before i'll run some KDE apps inside Gnome. anyway this is off topic [12:56] which one does more compression - zip or gzip?? [12:56] luckymurali: zip file-name.zip file1 file2 file3 [12:57] luckymurali: will put them into one file [12:57] usr13, I need seperate zip files for individual files [12:57] luckymurali: try both and see, gzip has options for the level of compression too. Though if your main concern is compression, not speed, you should checkout bzip2 [12:57] sebsebseb, i am having a bcdedit.exe issue with wubi any idesa [12:57] luckymurali: zip file1.zip file1 ; zip file1.zip file2 ; zip file3.zip file3 [12:58] etc [12:58] hey! [12:58] Kabiigon: no, but Wubi can go wrong on people, it can be ok for trying, but in general it's best to avoide it, espeasily you want an install of Ubuntu that you want to be used for quite a long while. [12:58] usr13, no single command?? [12:58] ok [12:58] luckymurali: the single command is to use a for loop... [12:58] Kabiigon: doesn't take much to set up a proper partitioned installed [12:58] yah [12:58] i know i guess im just lazy [12:58] sitting here waiting for the ubuntu 10.04 LTS, does anyone know what timezone they're running after and what time they plan on releasing eventually? [12:59] !isitout | fjolle [12:59] fjolle: nope. Lucid is due sometime on the 29th of April. Await the release in #ubuntu-release-party [12:59] or can i install release candidate and perform update without having to reinstall [12:59] aah [12:59] sorry [12:59] Tomorrow whee! [12:59] didn't know there was a channel [12:59] jrib, wher can i get example fro that?? [12:59] fjolle: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [12:59] fjolle: #ubuntu+1 for lucid questions (but yes to your second question) [12:59] luckymurali: for x in *; do echo $x; done [12:59] fjolle: np, loads of fan boys and girls are looking forward to it :D [12:59] heheh :d [13:00] Lucid Lynx sounds about a million times cooler than Karmic Koala so... :3 [13:02] What does the blue background color in `ls` mean? http://imagebin.org/94793 [13:03] hi, [13:03] alkisg: check 'ls -l' output and see what colors go with what permissions/filetypes is what i normally do [13:03] jrib, thanks [13:03] usr13, thanks [13:03] np [13:04] Dr_Willis: I did that but I can't find any difference between those particular files (generated by the grub-rescue-pc package) and any other files... [13:04] Hi.. Could someone tell me how to install a package in verbose mode on 8.04 ? === yukiseaside_ is now known as yukiseaside [13:04] phani: set -x and then use apt-get :) [13:04] iceroot: set -x meaning? [13:05] iceroot: thank you and let me give a try [13:05] alkisg: could be due to the extension. [13:05] alkisg: enjoy http://paste.ubuntu.com/423940/ [13:05] sebsebseb: setting the bash in debug-modus [13:05] Dr_Willis: I also tried that... :( [13:05] alkisg: Go to a directory where there is more variety and try it === yukiseaside is now known as yukiseaside_ [13:05] sebsebseb: set +x is setting the bash normal again === yukiseaside_ is now known as yukiseaside [13:05] alkisg: that's the default set on debian anyway === yukiseaside is now known as yukiseaside_ [13:05] what is internal compiler error? [13:05] icerott: is this is the right command : sudo set-x apt-get install mysql-server-5.0 ? [13:05] [13:05] jrib, thanks, looking... === yukiseaside_ is now known as yukiseaside [13:05] alkisg: ... where there are files and subdirectories etc. [13:06] iceroot: I am not exacty sure what you mean, but ok [13:06] i need help whit ip static, i installed ubuntu 9.10 server, modified the /etc/network/interfaces file and this this look now that it's, but the ip change at 5 min [13:06] # This file describes the network interfaces available on your system [13:06] # and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5). [13:06] # The loopback network interface [13:06] auto lo [13:06] iface lo inet loopback [13:06] el_maestro: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [13:06] sebsebseb: type "set -x" on bash, then type "echo "hello world" [13:06] usr13: I cannot find any other "blue background" files anywhere... maybe it's sparse files or something equally weird [13:06] alkisg: my .iso files are yellow here. :) actially all video files are in yellow it seems. [13:07] iceroot: is this is the right command : sudo set-x apt-get install mysql-server-5.0 ? [13:07] alkisg: Color schemes are particular to system setups and is customizable to your liking. [13:07] usr13: that's the default lucid installation [13:07] phani: no but why you need debug-infos? [13:07] * alkisg looks for hardlinks... [13:07] alkisg: yeah, 3 for each of those files :) [13:07] hi guys is there anyway for creating links on in my home dir that allow me to quickly navigae to folders on my server? [13:08] alkisg: seems like some sort of 'this is a video type file' setting makingit print in that color [13:08] would softlinks work for this? [13:08] alkisg: I use hardy [13:08] Dr_Willis: I don't think it's based on the file-type ... maybe those are hard links [13:08] I mean navigate using command line not gui [13:08] el_maestro, whats your problem? [13:08] iceroot: so when i install i get error dpkg status 01 error.. So, I want to know where it exactly fails [13:08] alkisg: from what i recall reading in some hardkore books. a Hardlink is identical to the original file. [13:09] alkisg: im not sure how you can even tell which one is the original. [13:09] phani: set -x; sudo apt-get install mysql-server;set +x [13:09] I have a dell inspiron b130 laptop whose wireless card is not recognized in Ubuntu 9.10. Any help? [13:09] alkisg: make a few test files and try it out :) [13:09] Tricks, you have the server sharepoint mounted? [13:09] !floodbots > el_maestro [13:09] el_maestro, please see my private message [13:09] Dr_Willis: if I run "cp that-special-file.iso a-new-file.iso", the color is lost on the second one [13:09] Dr_Willis: so I'm pretty sure the color doesn't match the file type [13:09] With the new release about what time will it be released on the 29th April? Being in Australia I am not sure of the time difference :) [13:10] alkisg: because you copied the file to a different place on your hard drive. You can think of hard links as pointing to the same place on your hard drive [13:10] Thraul: #ubuntu+1 [13:10] ok thanks [13:10] jrib, right, thanks, I'm now looking for a way to verify it (some command that displays hard links) [13:10] is server 10.04 LTS going to be released at the same time with other versions? [13:10] iceroot: i get error while installing it " invoke-rc.d: initscript mysql, action "start" failed " do you know what might be the reason ? [13:10] i have blue 'soft links' shown here :) [13:10] but thats a dir. [13:10] alkisg: ls -l did. That's what the "3" is in your output [13:10] Can anyone assist with a dell inspiron b130 laptop wirelss not recognized in Ubuntu 9.10? [13:11] jrib, ah, thank you [13:11] alkisg: try ls -i and you will likely see those files all have the same inode [13:12] hi anhyone here used unetbootin to install to a hdd [13:12] alkisg, blue = folders :/ [13:12] alkisg: http://linux.about.com/library/cmd/blcmdl5_dir_colors.htm [13:13] tells a little... [13:13] isolat3dsh33p, usr13, problem solved, it was "hard links" [13:13] i installed sun virtual box on my ubuntu and the network has change from 192.168.1.X to 10.0.2.X and now i cant access the box [13:13] does anyone already have this problem [13:13] meowbuntu: What? [13:13] meowbuntu: it can do a 'frugal' type install to a hard drive. but thats not the same as using unetbootin to make a bootable flash drive then installing from the flash drive [13:13] hi guys, what time does ubuntu 10.04 launch? :) [13:13] good morning. is there a way to lower the time that the notification bubbles are displayed? [13:13] what version of flash does ubuntu restricted install? since installing ubuntu flash is a slide show [13:13] jan247: when it's done [13:13] rww: hehe, thanks [13:13] No help today? [13:13] iuri, you will need to set the virtual box network card to bridged mode and select the network device to get a true IP from your network [13:13] !ask [13:13] Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [13:14] alkisg, congratz :) [13:14] Dr_Willis, sounds like puppy linux frugal install. [13:14] cogratz go to jrib :) [13:14] meowbuntu: similer name.. but vastly differnt in how it works i belive., [13:14] really then y same name then [13:14] confusing to everyone out there [13:14] hi [13:14] meowbuntu: make up a better name and submit it [13:15] how can i get rid of the proxy settings on karmic? i set a network proxy via preferences but deactivated it already. but a lot of my applications are still trying to connect using the proxy [13:15] I dont reccomend using the feature in unetbootin unless you read up on it - it proberly dosent do what you want. and you can also do a very similer thing now with grub2 and iso files. [13:15] firefox, thunderbird, xchat work [13:15] frugal installs in puppy linux allow you to put puppy on a hdd with an existing os on it and boot from both. [13:16] ^ Dr_Willis [13:16] but axel or transmission dont work [13:16] meowbuntu: yes. I know what it does. i was in #puppylinux for a very long time. [13:16] meowbuntu: http://www.pendrivelinux.com/create-a-xubuntu-9-10-flash-drive-using-the-cd/#more-2601 [13:16] meowbuntu: unetbootins is similer.. but not the same. [13:16] usr13, pendrive linus is for windows operating system cant use that on ubuntu [13:17] Unetbootin version basically puts the live cd on the HD and makes it bootable from there. it does not make any sort of peristant save, or other features. [13:17] meowbuntu: O [13:17] Dr_Willis, i want to know the differance really [13:17] and there ya got the diferance. [13:17] hoi [13:17] Thraul, Thanks [13:17] in ubuntu 9.04, when I issued an ssh session in a terminal, an ssh agent was automatically triggered in order to ask the ssh key passphrase. This behavior is not happening in lucid. How can I restore this behavior ? [13:18] usr13, read up that site most things use a windows os to do them. most not all [13:18] meowbuntu: Not the link I sent you [13:18] heeey [13:18] ah so its just the live cd on hdd not a install ok thanks Dr_Willis === rgreening_ is now known as rgreening [13:19] hoi [13:19] thats unetbootins definiution of a 'frugal install' i guess. go check teh unetbootins forums perhaps.

[13:42] delemi: yep. zombie :-) [13:43] richthegeek: no, it sends a SIGTERM, so the target can catch it. [13:43] delemi: either a zombie or a daemon restarting it?

[13:46] unimatrix9, the only reason anyone would want that is if you where recieving a file from another woindows user adn you wanted to pass it on to another windows user. the virus wil sit attached to the file not affecting any linux os but as soon as it gets on a windows os it will activate. [13:46] unimatrix9: theres a few out for linux, clamav, and avg has a linux one also. may be others [13:47] delemi: my point is that the latest update might have ballsed it so wait for an update to it before using [13:47] thanks rickthegeek [13:47] avg ha ha [13:47] anyone know a good simple reminder program [13:47] okey, thank you for the info..

[13:53] let me point out that : when i run a mail server, i would need an anti virus scanner, because 90 % of my users have windows : second , usb flash drives that come from windows machines are infected, they need to be cleaned of all virus before they go back out in some one else his machine , third , i do not want to mail my friends any virus from someone else < beside these points , you are right, no need on an ubuntu desktop for any virus scanners...

When the next release comes out you can abandon LTS if you want it or you stick with Lucid until there's a new LTS release. [14:36] and hardy was much better than this one [14:36] tehowe: not sure if that answers your question, tho. [14:36] K1ng\: I still use hardy [14:36] h00k y not use !grub2 | nick nest time its a short cut for ubottu [14:36] kya bhai log kya chal ra.... [14:37] Full-Frugal: I know that :) [14:37] !ubottu | h00k [14:37] h00k: Hi! I'm #ubuntu's favorite infobot, you can search my brain yourself at http://ubottu.com/factoids.cgi - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Bots [14:37] #ubuntu-es [14:37] K1ng\: On my main desktop system I use hardy that is.... [14:37] ahau: #ubuntu-es is not regestered [14:37] well i will use win for few days [14:37] is there btw any known issues with dual boot grub vista and ubuntu 9? cuz i had several times my grub just wiped after i booted in and out windows without doing any changes. now i changed to ubuntu 10 and downgraded windows to xp it seems to run fine. [14:38] @moreia: So new bits and pieces aren't added into Lucid from the Noxious Newt or whatever it happens to be... but I assume bugfixes for Lucid are released periodically? [14:38] tehowe: head to #ubuntu+1 for Lucid discussion, please [14:38] Dr-Ubuntu: i have heard of some people complain about that [14:38] tehowe: exactly. [14:38] K1ng\: I have a couple other machines here that I do different things with, but for our main system, it is LTS and am not in a hurry to upgrade as it does all I expect and need. [14:39] h00k: I thought this was a fair place for questions like "how does LTS actually work?" [14:39] i blame vista :) [14:39] anyone get Ovation™ U760 by Novatel Wireless to work on beta 10.04 hope it works on final... [14:39] hardy is less buggy :) [14:39] @h00k: Ok cool... maybe they can help wit my intermittent wireless. [14:39] who knows about lucid :p [14:39] new version = new bugs [14:39] Dr-Ubuntu: Grub2 is slightly larger than Grub, what happens is some Windows software will overwrite the MBR without checking to see if there is anything there. Common things seem to be Backup Software, Security software, etc [14:39] moreia: you should visit #ubuntu-offtopic for all other non-support related discussions [14:40] h00k: is there any way to avoid it? [14:40] geekphreak: uninstall whatever software is doing it :( [14:40] mmmm [14:40] K1ng\: Some of the stuff folks believe are bugs are just differences... [14:40] Does anyone know when will the new version of ubuntu server will be released? [14:40] could be anti virus then geek? [14:40] staff* [14:41] tehowe: Soooo...sounds like you should take your questions to #ubuntu+1 [14:41] anyone get Ovation™ U760 by Novatel Wireless to work on beta 10.04 hope it works on final...??? [14:41] h00k: well thats the hard part !! , cause some people did not install any tools like that still had issues, dont know if its vista boot loader working overtime [14:41] K1ng\: Go back to 8.04 if you don't like it. [14:41] !lucid > brejeiro[xi] [14:41] brejeiro[xi], please see my private message [14:41] usr13, i hate the upgrade..... its will upgrade everything [14:42] 洗个热水澡 [14:42] lol [14:42] K1ng\: What?

[14:47] how to open ports for playing starcraft? [14:47] Dr-Ubuntu: naaw that wont do it [14:47] Is there any way to see the remaining power with a cli ? [14:47] Oo [14:47] aybabtu: I do not, but perhaps the channel does [14:47] Ok, here's a pretty general question - is there a system hotkey to minimize all windows? Like START-d under that other OS?

[14:51] aybabtu: are you there somewhere ? [14:51] jotall: you've obviously never seen my family [14:51] tehowe: welcome [14:52] I am currently on a Jaunty laptop. Last night I hooked up my laptop to my 1080p monitor at home, and set the resolution accordingly, ensureing (through the display manager) that my LVDS was off. When I left home this morning, I did not bother to switch the output back to LVDS, and instead just suspended my computer and brought it to work. Now when I log in to gnome, my LVDS is blank, and I can't get any output on an external monitor (there are no [14:52] (I am currently working off of tty01 because it's the only way I can actually *use* this computer at the moment) [14:52] "Wtf" is supposed swearing? [14:52] hoelk: Yes. Acronyms count as well. [14:53] hoelk: the F isn't "fridge" [14:53] eurythmia: gui wont come up, any errors? [14:53] Hello,how i can enable freebsd emulation in ubuntu 9.10? [14:53] What the family? [14:53] * underdev ear's are burning. BURNING I SAY! [14:53] geekphreak: that is correct, no gui ... I don't see any output, and can't ewven switch over to a tty when that occurs, so I'm not sure about the errors. [14:53] FreeBSD-monster: never knew it had one , interesting [14:53] What do you do when there are popular packages with swearwords? [14:53] hoelk: exactly... [14:53] jotall: such as? [14:54] FreeBSD-monster: you could always run freebsd in a vm i suppose. what exactly are you trying to emulate? [14:54] jotall: pm me if you are wary [14:54] ok is it easy to chanload another grub menu to the ubuntu one [14:54] richthegeek: Such as I don't know, but if there are and if there will be [14:54] eurythmia: can you try something for me , press alt+ right arrow key to move to next terminal then type startx , what throws up? [14:54] jotall: i wouldn't worry about it. [14:54] jotall: I suppose GIMP almost counts except no-one uses it as an expletive so much as an insult [14:54] Like, what if GIMP had another name.. [14:54] yeah.. [14:54] sipior:i wrote a RedTube Downloader in c++ on freebsd,instead installing compilers,i want to emulate it [14:55] But if something had something as FUCK? [14:55] FreeBSD-monster: there is no "emulate freebsd' [14:55] awww [14:55] jotall: Don't push the issue. [14:55] linux sucks [14:55] jotall, please stop that [14:55] FreeBSD-monster: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [14:55] h00k: It's a legitimate question. [14:55] linux really sucks [14:55] jotall, do you have an actual support question? [14:55] FreeBSD-monster: go away. [14:55] sipior:no u [14:56] lol, kick? seems a little harsh.. [14:56] here i thought he had an interesting question... [14:56] geekphreak: hm ... stopping gdm and typing startx brings me to my regular desktop, as I would wish it to be ... I wonder if I can start gdm normally now and have that happen ... [14:57] eurythmia: ok desktop is up now, which is good , did you uninstall kdm ? [14:57] http://www.vidarholen.net/contents/wordcount/ === sheats_ is now known as sheats [14:58] Using wget to download part of a site, say site.domain.com how can I make it ignore certain paths? Say site.domain.com/blah so it ignores everything past the blah path [14:58] help needed immediately, my sound suddenly stopped, i tried everything === cdr is now known as Guest70882 [14:58] have you tried rebooting? heh [14:58] lalalol: try killing pulseaudio [14:58] geekphreak: yep ... now that it's up, things are the way they should be. I suspect it may have something to do with the the way gdm starts a session (with settings from the previous session) as opposed to the way startx starts the session (with the saved configuration). [14:58] hallo, I've a Linode server running Ubuntu 8.04 LTS and would like to reduce it's footprint as I'm limited to HDD space as is. Are there any aspects of Ubuntu I can remove via the console that can maybe free up some disk space? Some unwanted applications or bloat by chance? [14:58] h00k, i just rebooted [14:58] LuckySMack[droid: try httrack [14:59] brb, I'm going to start xchat now ;) [14:59] now about chainloadiong in grub 2 [14:59] Full-Frugal: I think that is covered in the grub2 wiki [14:59] xomp: X, gnome, kde? [14:59] Heh, so there is at least one package. "libacme-brainfuck-perl" I guess we can't talk about that one in here? [14:59] xomp: apt-get cache? [14:59] jotall: thate nough [14:59] bloopletech, no DE's are used as it's headless, but they may be installed [14:59] yes sort of just wanting to know if it can be done from ubuntu to puppy on seperate hdd [14:59] enough* [15:00] jotall: Please be mature about the issue. Thanks. [15:00] Wonder if anyone can help - I seem to have lost my volume control from my tray - how can I get it back? [15:00] h00k: Please be mature about censorship and rules. [15:00] chun_: press alt+f2 >> type gnome-volume-control [15:00] xomp: Well uninstalling them will free some space up, as will clearing the apt-get cache (AFAIK) [15:00] bloopletech, E: Invalid operation cache [15:01] xomp: It's not a direct command it's part of apt-get, ... you'll need to google it [15:01] jotall: do you have anything interesting to ask about? [15:01] geekphreak, I don't know why I didn't think of trying startx directly ... but for now, I blame the morning ;) ... thanks for the help. [15:01] !guidelines > jotall [15:01] jotall, please see my private message [15:01] h00k, help plz [15:01] jotall: That is a language, mention of that language is fine. Using the words as curse words are not allowed. If you have other issues, please check the !guidelines and !codeofconduct [15:01] geekphreak: install with apt? Httrack [15:01] geekphreak -- that opens "sounds preferences" but doesn't give me the volume icon back [15:02] bloopletech, it's actually "apt-get clean" [15:02] lalalol: I'm not sure how to fix your issues, also please use the full words as English isn't everyone's native language and they may not understand. [15:02] eurythmia, ok thanks [15:02] h00k: So if I do have an issue with libacme-brainfuck-perl in 10.04 it shall not be brought up in this channel? [15:02] bloopletech, no problem :) [15:02] jotall: correct, you can take Lucid issues to #ubuntu+1 [15:02] k h00k [15:02] h00k: Haha, well, 9.10, doesn't matter. [15:03] bloopletech, "apt-get clean all" will ensure that all the cache and downloaded packages are cleared out. [15:03] eurythmia, ah [15:03] jotall: That is fine, as it is a package. Do not use 'curse' words as curse words, however. If you have other questions, feel free to pm me [15:04] bloopletech, /etc/apt/cache ? [15:04] Need to be able to run a script on all my my ubuntu boxes (40+). How would you guys recommend. I can throw together a script containing individual ssh commands but I would prefer to not have clients root password saved within the script. I also would prefer to not put an ssh key on all clients to prevent the password prompt.

[15:06] LucidGuy: have a look at "cssh" [15:06] !version | fellipe_brasil [15:06] fellipe_brasil: To find out what version of Ubuntu you have, type « lsb_release -a » in a !shell - To know the available version of a package, « apt-cache policy » [15:06] I am using ubuntu 8.04 server [15:06] Does the samba service start before a user logs in to the desktop? [15:07] scunizi: should do, yes [15:08] sipior: that's what I thought.. I know it does on a server install. but a desktop install I can't seem to access after just hitting the power button === IaMnOtHeRe is now known as Dreaming [15:10] scunizi: you've logged in and verified that the service is running? [15:10] scunizi: logged in remotely, i mean. [15:11] sipior: nope.. didn't think of that .. so I'm now in via ssh .. how do I find out if it's running? sudo service samba status? [15:12] scunizi: that sounds right :-) [15:12] scunizi: yep [15:12] scunizi: i don't think the sudo is necessary, though. === yofel is now known as yofel_ === yofel_ is now known as yofel__ === yofel__ is now known as yofel [15:14] sipior: yep that worked.. and it's running.

I may have inadvertantly disabled that but I know I didnt do it voluntarily [15:20] i pressed wq and it show at bottom "recording" [15:21] coz_ maybe is it a compiz option? [15:21] kabal: you need the colon down there, too [15:21] *is it?

I have a 64 bit processor and have used 64 bit windows, just wondering if it is beneficial to use 64 bit version or just stick to 32 bit [15:21] !hdh [15:21] rldowling03: 64bit is the wave of the future! [15:21] rldowling03: depending on your ram but amd64 version is running fine [15:22] rldowling03: how much RAM? [15:22] hello all [15:22] I have 4GB of ram running AMD dual core === gdb_ is now known as gdb [15:22] it doesn't depend on ram. there are other benefits, too.

Thanks [15:22] uLinux, I dont see any option .. specifically ... in ccsm for that however i do recall ...last year...having to set that in one of the compiz plugins [15:22] okay, is there any issues I should be aware of with using 64 bit === acidburn is now known as mystical [15:23] rldowling03: not really unless you use zsnes [15:23] coz_ it sucks there isnt any option for that..

[15:24] f [15:25] geekphreak: I am using POP3 [15:25] Hello, dose anyone know how to extend the top panel on dual screen with ubuntu? [15:25] soicon: does it look good in web interface ? [15:25] and all the emails won't be kept on server after being downloaded [15:25] aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah [15:25] soicon: you have to enable option "leave message on server" [15:26] uLinux, the older way of doing this in ccsm was top open the opacity brightness and saturation plugin and adding (name=gnome-panel & type=tootip) and setting opcaity value to 0 [15:26] uLinux, that may still be valid [15:26] coz_ ok [15:26] is their a way to convert a scanned document to a normal typed document to be edited in open office? [15:26] soicon: click edit >> account settings >> enable it there for your account [15:27] geekphreak: is it helpful ? I will try, I haven't try to login to the webmail yet [15:27] uLinux, or open gconf editore manuever to /apps/panel/global and disable tooltips_enabled [15:27] vi is hard [15:28] hi is there a service manager in ubuntu? [15:28] guys, I experience pretty regular system freezes. Hard freezes... magic sysrq won't even work. Turned off Compiz...the lockups happen much less frequently. Replaced video card, no dice. Replaced RAM, and it seemed to fix if for a few days, but after upgrading to Lucid, seems the lockups are back. Opened case, all fans are working properly. I'm not sure what to do at this point. Could it be the motherboard? Something with Linux itself? [15:28] anyone know the best way to do a virus scan on windows from ubuntu via wubi install,nasty virus wont let me do anything on win so im trying to fix it fromubuntu [15:28] kabal: But worth it if you do lots of text editing [15:28] coz_ how do i open it [15:28] Bunbury: sudo apt-get install rcconf [15:28] kabal: use nano or pico then :P [15:28] ah ty ty geek [15:28] uLinux, open a terminal type gconf-editor [15:28] tks [15:28] uLinux, then /apps/ panel / global and in the right panel lookfor tootips_enabled [15:29] soicon: chanes are mails will be ok there, prob. folder/profile got currupted thats the only thing i can think of, try to log into webmail option see everything is ok there [15:29] Hey, any real difference between x86 and AMD64 builds? [15:29] Bunbury: welcome [15:29] I have 2GB ram, 2.2ghz dual 64 AMD CPU [15:29] Guest35290: AMD64 runs only on 64bit processors, the x86 version runs on both [15:29] coz_ tks a lot :) [15:29] Guest53826, you mean in terms of speed ? [15:29] im gonna save that command [15:29] uLinux, did that work for you? [15:29] jbwiv: anything interesting get dumped in the system logs that corresponds to the time of the crashes? [15:29] yes coz_ [15:30] cool [15:30] k geek i have it installed how do I use it [15:30] coz_: Speed, reliability, resource usage etc [15:30] Guest53826: X86 is common, you hardly find AMD64, mostly X64 work for servers purposes [15:30] While running `sudo rsync -av myhomedir mybackupdir`, rsync creates all hidden (starting with dot) directories with root as the owner, instead of alkisg. Isn't `-a` supposed to preserve dir ownership? What am I doing wrong? [15:30] Bunbury: just run sudo rcconf , you can enable/disable services from it [15:30] what's the point of adding a deb-src to the repositories? [15:30] q__: please don't version people [15:30] Guest53826, well I have both 32 bit and amd 64 bit.... 64 bit is running lucid and it is faster in booting and far less resource intensive howeve [15:30] How can I get my current user default public key (openssh)? [15:30] ah is there anything else with a better UI? [15:30] Guest53826, however that may also be due to lucid as well :) [15:30] sorry, but why? [15:30] coz_: So... Which to get? :s [15:31] q__: because many people consider it rude to do so without asking [15:31] Guest53826, I run amd64 bit lucid on my desktop, it runs fine [15:31] whats the best virus program to scan windows with from ubuntu via wubi [15:31] Bunbury: there is a gui version of rcconf >> you canc search for it, there are other option in synaptic too :) [15:31] alkisg_web: the permissions will be preserved, not the owner. you can fix that later with a "chown -R " [15:31] :) [15:31] Guest53826, if you want you can install the 32 bit on a 64 bit system I dont think you will notice much out of the ordinary [15:31] coz_: 64 bit uses more memory as a matter of course. I'm not sure what you mean by "less resource intensive." 64 binaries also take up more disk space. I get booting faster, I get running faster, but 64 bit is more resource intensive (ie; your memory and disk resources). [15:31] ok [15:31] 10.04 today? [15:31] 28th? [15:31] Ok cool thanks, I guess AMD64 [15:31] 29th>? [15:31] !lucid | mrp [15:31] mrp: 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 - Await the release in #ubuntu-release-party [15:31] :D [15:31] mrp: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [15:31] Pici: ta [15:31] sipior: ugh, but what if I have 5 different owner in subdirs? Isn't there a tool that preserves owners? [15:32] geekphreak: thank you, let me try [15:32] Guest53826: you only need the 64 bit version to fully utilize >4.2GB of RAM, otherwise the speed difference is negligible [15:32] soicon: welcome [15:32] can i set up authentication for cd-drive? [15:32] tsimpson: Hmmmm, thought it may be [15:32] gdb, I will have to check again.. I didnt notice those things but i will check again thanks [15:32] thanks [15:32] coz_ at least it disabled shortcut popups [15:32] tsimpson: But if I'm reinstalling anywya.. Meh? [15:32] Hi. I'm on an old pc with Intrepid... Just wondering what would happen if I delete these repositories and add Karmic's/Lucid's instead [15:32] Hello, dose anyone know how to extend the top panel on dual screen with ubuntu? [15:33] Pici: in old ubuntu wasnet there a service-admin command or something to manage services, did they take it off? [15:33] im looking for a ui like the windows service manager [15:33] sipior: no, nothing of note [15:33] stop, start, automaic, manual [15:33] sipior: thank you. [15:33] Glowball, well you may run into issues you were not expecting.... I would suggest just a clean install of lucid after it's release [15:33] alkisg_web: you know, i just checked the man page, and -o (implied by -a) should preserve the owner. not sure why it wouldn't there. you're not moving these files onto another system? [15:33] sipior: I"m copying the files into another disk [15:33] Bunbury: let me see if i can ccome up with something [15:33] geekphreak: There was, I don't know if it plays nice with upstart though. The package is 'bum' though. [15:34] coz_ but still there is some other yellow popups in time section, desktop button, trash shortcut [15:34] Pici: oh ok thanks [15:34] coz_: was already planning to do that :) So actually, I can try it, since it needs a reinstall anyway [15:34] Glowball, there you go I think you will be much happier with aclean install :) [15:34] alkisg_web: another thing to try: get a root prompt via sudo -i, and then try the rsync command again. [15:34] coz_: The differences are very slight. If you have the ability to do so, you can install the 64 and 32 bit versions of Ubuntu in side by side virtual machines (eg; Virtual Box) and do a comparison of both while running their respective default installs (using df, free, and other commands to look at resource usage). [15:35] sipior, thanks, trying... [15:35] uLinux, then you could try the ccsm window rule under opacity brightness and saturation plugin [15:35] k geek === sdasd is now known as p0fk [15:35] Will there be an Lubuntu iso available btw? There are iso's for the beta releases, but since it's not going to be a real derivative just yet... [15:36] Glowball, not as of lucid no [15:36] gdb, I may do that at some point just to see the differences...however I do notice... on the 64 bit system which is a lesser system than I am runnong here... with a lesser video card...that it does tend to use fewer resources particularly video resources but I will test at some point anyway thanks again :) [15:36] when i copy large file (<1GB) to my 4 GB pen drive(USB2.0) its speed slowdown to 1 MB. some times hanging. but on windows copying speed is fast [15:36] sipior: nah, the same problem, rsync sets "root" as the owner of hidden dirs (while it keeps the owner of non-hidden dirs) [15:36] gdb, but I am also attributing some of that to lucid as well [15:37] I thought so. Damn. But if I download a beta cd and update everything... I will eventually have a full Lubuntu install, no? [15:37] ITM!! [15:37] Glowball, lubuntu-desktop package [15:37] Bunbury: try sysv-rc-conf [15:37] bazhang: I know. But then it's cluttered with GNOME apps [15:37] alkisg_web: the contents of the directories are correct, though? [15:38] Glowball, you could go with alternate or minimal installer [15:38] sipior: yes, I think so [15:38] Glowball, minimal is around 10mb [15:38] hey, will they release at midnight in UK time or est? [15:38] The alternate installer... I have never actually looked at that. And I don't know about the minimal installer tbh, I'll have a look at that [15:38] !isitoutyet | Travel [15:38] Travel: nope. Lucid is due sometime on the 29th of April. Await the release in #ubuntu-release-party [15:38] Traveler3, when its done no set time [15:38] soicon: any luck? [15:39] ty geek [15:40] Bunbury: welcome, hope it works for you [15:40] I mounted an NTFS drive under my username however when apps such as PHP try to modify files on it they get permission denied. how can i fix this? [15:40] alkisg_web: could you try adding the --super option? also, you're rsyncing to a clean directory with each of these tests, right? [15:41] hello [15:41] sipior: to a clean directory, yes, and thanks, trying... [15:43] sipior: nah, the same. I was wrong though; ALL the directories are created as owned by root, not just the hidden ones. The owner is only preserved for files, not for dirs. === root is now known as Guest12220 [15:44] alkisg_web: bizarre. i've never seen that before. what type of filesystem are you copying from/to? [15:44] Hi! I need to make this work. http://pascalek.pers.pl/en/propage/samba4dosemu-introduction Someone did it? [15:44] sipior: ext3 to ext3 [15:45] Hi! I need to make this work. http://pascalek.pers.pl/en/propage/samba4dosemu-introduction Someone did it? In ubuntu 9.10 Sorry [15:45] sipior: I think I had noticed that in previous Ubuntu versions, too (I'm currently using Lucid). Does this not happen for you? [15:45] alkisg_web: it does not, no [15:45] Oh. :( [15:45] sipior: sudo rsync -av --super source-dir dest-dir, right? I can't imagine what I'm doing wrong... :-/ [15:46] alkisg_web: looks right to me. [15:46] help problems with permissions [15:46] I mounted an NTFS drive under my username however when apps such as PHP try to modify files on it they get permission denied. how can i fix this? [15:46] Hmmm let me trying mounting the external disk manually, without udisk... [15:47] guys, I experience pretty regular system freezes. Hard freezes... magic sysrq won't even work. Turned off Compiz...the lockups happen much less frequently. Replaced video card, no dice. Replaced RAM, and it seemed to fix if for a few days, but after upgrading to Lucid, seems the lockups are back. Opened case, all fans are working properly. I'm not sure what to do at this point. Could it be the motherboard? Something with Linux itself? [15:47] alkisg_web: is the directory you're copying into owned by root? [15:47] Hi I am looking to install an older version of metacity (pre-lucid) into lucid-beta-2. How do I go about doing it. I have downloaded the required packages that need to be installed. [15:48] sipior: yes, e.g. /home/username, but not the subdirs, they're owned by the user. [15:48] m_anish: dont think thats a good idea [15:48] alkisg_web: so, /home/ is not owned by ? [15:48] sipior: i.e. I'm trying to backup my "normal" home dir in an external disk. I'm logged on as another user while trying to do that. [15:49] sipior: no, /home/username is owned by root (as usual?) [15:49] Flynsarmy: is rw option enabled for that partition? [15:49] alkisg_web: no, that's not :-) [15:49] geekphreak, yep [15:49] geekphreak, I know, but i need to it [15:49] geekphreak, it's also things like php not being able to chmod [15:50] m_anish: its your system :) [15:50] alkisg_web: ls -ld /home/sipior : [15:50] alkisg_web: drwxr-xr-x 44 sipior sipior 4096 Apr 27 19:11 /home/sipior [15:50] how many more hours for ubuntu 10.04 to be out? [15:51] sipior: sorry you're right, yes it's owned by the user :D [15:51] vadi01_, not known [15:51] when videos on youtude are loaded into firefox such that one can replay instantly, is their a folder in which they are cached, so that one can just cd to the directory and copy the video?

[15:52] geekphreak, :) yes it is. So how to do it ... if I remove the installed packages first, it will remove a ton of another installed packages... Is there any way I can only remove the packages in question and not the dependencies etc. [15:52] thank you :) [15:53] alkisg_web: a real head-scratcher. you might try specifying all the switches explicitly, instead of using -a. but i'm not too optimistic... [15:53] He said he can't access both web resources and vpn resources [15:53] Hi, when my session restored (using KDE), Plasma never started.

[15:56] alkisg_web: hang on a moment, i was using a different rsync (i have a gentoo prefix installed at the moment as well). let me try with the real ubuntu rsync.

[16:10] or maybe 3 extra folders [16:10] Sachse_Siechtum: create other mount point for that and share them [16:11] ok [16:11] just tried the linux mint live cd and really liked it... [16:11] nmobix: type lsmod and see if theres a module with a similar name? [16:11] geekphreak: thk so much, it's exactly what you thought of, the profile is corrupted.

Somehow or another, I installed a version of fontconfig-config that is higher than the karmic version. It was probably through the mozilla-dev repository (which I removed), but now, when I attempt to downgrade, I'm blocked: Observe paste. [16:12] this is lsmod [16:12] Will be the difference between RC and Final?

I remove dosemu but the conf file were still there. So before reinstall i did... rm -r etc/dosemu and all were erased. Now i did sudo apt-get install dosemu and the program is installa but the conf files werent created. How can i fix this? [16:13] RC Still has bugs, final usually doesn't.

[16:14] acicula, sorry to bother you so much [16:14] nmobix: one is used by the other [16:14] nmobix: you need both modules [16:14] if you modprobe via_rhine it will probably autoload mii [16:14] !lucid | Piotr_ [16:14] Piotr_: 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 - Await the release in #ubuntu-release-party [16:14] since via_rhine depends on mii [16:14] archayl, yeah I think its the best linux for beginners because the menu is quite similar to vista [16:14] acicula, so theoretically if i wanted to put my net card into the whitelist for suspend/hibernate, i'd have to put both of these modules in there??? [16:14] Is there a way to configure the "places" menu so that it doesn't include certain drives automatically? [16:15] nmobix: well depends how they are loaded [16:15] ok thx for help [16:15] but you need both mods loaded [16:15] I have a problem. I remove dosemu but the conf file were still there. So before reinstall i did... rm -r etc/dosemu and all were erased. Now i did sudo apt-get install dosemu and the program is installa but the conf files werent created. How can i fix this? [16:15] hmm, any idea why ubuntu10.4 doesn't include the kernel 2.6.33 that has TRIM support? I mean if 10.4 is LTS, you'd think TRIM is kinda important for the long term, but I don't know what's the kernel update policy in between ubuntu releases? [16:15] acicula, care to elaborate a bit more on that? [16:15] Seldaek : Please join #ubuntu+1 for Lucid/10.04 support/discussion.

Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! [16:16] nmobix: so if it uses insmod you need to load mii and then via_rhine, if you modprobe it autoloads the dependency [16:16] soicon: are you there , i got an idea :) [16:17] acicula, 500W OCZ ps, Asus Z8NA-D6 board [16:17] Does anyone know the exact UTC time that 10.04 is going to be released tomorrow?

As far as I know, I'm the only one experiening lockups [16:17] acicula, how do i check which way it loads? [16:17] nmobix: i dont know that [16:17] acicula, GeForce 9800 GT [16:17] just try listing both mods [16:17] soicon: there is 1 more thing you can do, on current install install add on to backup emails >> , when new profile is created you can import them back :) . i think theres a addon for it :) [16:18] acicula, the only difference between mine and the others is that I have a Netgear WG311T wireless adapter installed [16:18] jbwiv: well its not an exceptionally heavy psu for that config but it should be enough [16:19] acicula, would you think a bad motherboard is a possibility? [16:19] acicula, for what it's worth, it's much more stable with Compiz disabled for some reason [16:19] its possible yeh [16:19] geekphreak: oh yes, I'll do as you say, thank you geekphreak! [16:19] jbwiv: try scanning with the ultimate boot cd [16:19] acicula, which is why I tried replacing the Gfx card, but the problem persisted [16:19] testing memory, hardive, and maybe a cpu burnin test [16:19] essial, scanning what exactly? [16:19] 24.00 essial [16:19] clock [16:19] (: [16:20] ? [16:20] essial, I have tested the ram with memtest86, everything looked good [16:20] I've also used cpuburn to burn the cpus, nothing out of the ordinary [16:20] are all the components new? [16:20] jbwiv: if you load it heavily without a gui can you make it crash? [16:20] essial, yes, all components are new [16:20] jbwiv: if it has an igp can you try using that and remove the gpu/wireless [16:20] acicula, I haven't tried that. igp? [16:20] when it hard locks do you check the cpu temp? [16:20] jbwiv: integrated graphics card on the motherboard [16:20] jbwiv: Does it happen on a live cd? [16:20] I've seen CPUs with improper amounts of thermal paste do that [16:21] essial, no, lmsensors doesn't support my board [16:21] (too much or too little) [16:21] Not even in BIOS? [16:21] soreau, I haven't seen it happen, can't guarantee tho [16:21] that seems odd for a dual cpu board [16:21] is it possible to safely install ubuntu desktop ontp of ubuntu server? [16:21] Maybe physically touch it then and see if it's excessively hot [16:21] essial, I will check it next time in the bios [16:21] Hi all! Is there a samba package for ubuntu with ctdb support? [16:21] jbwiv: If it doesn't happen in a live session, it's likely a reinstall will fix it [16:21] Hello [16:21] soreau, I've tried two re-installs ;-) [16:21] I have a problem. I remove dosemu but the conf file were still there. So before reinstall i did... rm -r etc/dosemu and all were erased. Now i did sudo apt-get install dosemu and the program is installa but the conf files werent created. How can i fix this? [16:21] has anyone here ever used foremost to recover lost data?

[16:22] cpu heat will lock a system quick [16:22] acicula, seems odd that lmsensors doesn't support it? yes, I was sad [16:22] the only other thing is to unplug all uneeded periphials [16:22] Travis-42: Did or are you using AutoFS? [16:22] hi [16:22] and pci cards and usb devices and such [16:22] can anyone recommend a good way to read cpu temps without lm-sensors? [16:22] jbwiv: Maybe it's getting hot and failing? or some hw component is going out [16:22] rule out as much as possible [16:22] ALSO a bad power supply can do it you know [16:22] can I setup in in series two different bridge with 2 ethernet card in each one ? [16:22] you could try connecting a power uspply from one of the known good machines [16:23] essial, didn't realize that. I'll have to try that. first, i need to make it repeatable reliably [16:23] power supplies are REALLY important, never buy cheap ones :) [16:23] is there a program out there that will load cpu and gpu at the same time? [16:23] jbwiv: vista [16:23] essial, this wasn't a cheapy. Supposedly very good [16:23] essial, lol [16:23] ;) [16:23] Vigo: no, not using autofs (at least, not on purpose). There are just a couple of "system" drives (e.g. for backup) that I don't really want to take up places space in the dialogs [16:24] Travis-42: This may help:> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Autofs [16:24] jbwiv: also are all 12 machines the same specs? [16:24] Vigo: ok thanks, I'll read about it [16:24] (same parts) [16:24] I have a strange problem here. Somehow or another, I installed a version of fontconfig-config that is higher than the karmic version. It was probably through the mozilla-dev repository (which I removed), but now, when I attempt to downgrade, it wants to remove my entire system: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/QMn3jhMg [16:24] you have to be very careful ordering ram when you get a motherboard [16:24] mickster04: you can install a GUI on top of Ubuntu server, but it think it would slow it down significantly. [16:25] essial, yes, exactly the same specs, except for the wireless card [16:25] mickster04: here's something on that for 9.04: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/install-gui-in-ubuntu-server.html [16:25] jbwiv: then my guess, in order is: CPU getting too hot, power supply, bad motherboard [16:25] hashed_: would it be better to installdesktop and add apache etc to it? [16:25] how to i check all process running at the time [16:25] essial, ok, I'll try to figure out a way to read the cpu temps [16:25] essial, thx [16:25] np [16:25] (i run a computer repair shop :p) [16:26] Man I guess I'm going to bed early tonight, I want to grab 10.04 the SECOND it comes out [16:26] sporedi: top? [16:26] Travis-42: It could also be an fstab configuration, :> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab [16:27] mickster04: it depends on how you use it. If you are planning to have a general-use desktop with a Lamp server, I would suggest using Desktop and adding the Lamp components in. [16:27] sorry i mean all files and deamns [16:27] deamons [16:28] mickster04: I installed ubuntu server on my proliant, then added gnome package on top [16:28] but only because i run gnome in vnc sessions [16:28] the actual physical monitor is text :p [16:28] I am very happy with the Server edition myself, but I use it as a production server.

So I guess it set the owner at a later point, because now that it's finished everything is ok :) [16:34] #join /jav [16:35] does anyone know how i can change the permissions of a ntfs folder ?

[17:36] * stodorovic wonders if 10.04 will be released with the x leak... [17:36] what do you think ?

[17:39] is it me, or does gnome-commander not have tabs? [17:40] GOd morning to all... I have an issue with a USB HDD and an internal ide-scsi raid cluster... it appears that, on boot and if the usb drive is lect powered up (with no fstab entry), it snatches the /dev assignment and then mounts to the wrong point... any thoughts? [17:40] grggomano, you mean to say the terminal right [17:41] I can't find the 'add computer to account' option in Ubuntu One, either on the webpage or in the client, running 10.04 nightly from last night. Any advice? The installation instructions don't tell me where the option should be. [17:41] sinux: no, gnome commander - file manager. Krusader has tab possibilites if i need more than just 2 folders open... [17:41] sinux, i think, it boot so fast :D [17:41] but krusader's too bloated for my taste/needs [17:41] i've got serious memory/swap issues with Ubuntu since 9.10. I have 4GB ram (3.2GB free, 3.2GB cache/buffer) and 4GB swap (0M free) . According to everything I check, the memory is not in use. [17:42] greggomano, ah [17:42] Why is the kernel swapping if no applications are using memory? [17:42] iMaTh, the booting speed improvement one of canonicals goals [17:42] bens, your swap was empty ? [17:43] sinux, good :) [17:43] I'm running apache on my ubuntu server and accessing localhost or the ip from the server is fine, however, when accessing it from another remote box i get variable connections with timeouts, and now it has failed to open at all. Can anyone give me a pointer as to where i may correct this? [Ubuntu 9.10] [17:43] does anyone know how to find out the exact model of your graphics card ? [17:43] iMaTh, no. swap is full. The system never stops swapping. Eventually I have to swapoff to clear it out, which does NOT result in my memory being filled with 4GB of stuff. [17:44] Once I swapoff, and swap back on, performance is great again. [17:44] I blamed it on VMware at first, so I gave up VMware and went KVM instead, but its started again. [17:44] bens, strange :s i have no ideas sorry :s [17:44] join ubuntu-es [17:44] anyone using mutt or configured if before...please help me to do it.

[17:46] dunas sorry have u ever used it before now [17:46] if i want to install virtualbox, i only have to choose virtualbox-ose from synaptic?

[17:52] geekphreak, yes. ip is correct and permenant. Port is also correct. [17:52] bens, aha. I had to recover my password, that might've broken its sequence somehow. [17:52] sinux, Doesn't matter how much swap I allocate. I've tried using less, to no avail. x86 and x86_64. [17:52] bushbaby: permisson set ok , readable? [17:52] geekphreak, It was working well a few hours ago.. [17:52] Tried it back when 9.10 was new and decided to wait. [17:52] dunas, yup, its a bug, but i don't think anyone has reported it yet. [17:52] not good one day before release. [17:52] bushbaby: stupid question, is apache running :) [17:53] cześć [17:53] how do i disable font bluring ? [17:53] bens, seems more like a bug in U1 than a bug in 10.04, though. Hopefully they'll get it hammered out by tonight- might be they're already aware. [17:54] At least the software center looks nice and works fairly well [17:54] dunas, I already talked to them about it last night. They hadn't heard about it. [17:54] I'm letting them know again that others have reproduced. [17:54] geekphreak, yes, i've reset it and checked a few times.. [17:54] Alright, good to know then. I'll go ahead and delete/remake. [17:54] Thanks for your help. :) [17:54] geekphreak, it's strange, i havne't changed any settings to my knowledge.. it's just, stopped. [17:55] bushbaby: you get connection timeout ?

The best option is freedos ? [17:55] geekphreak, the exact message in firefox? (using firefox to connect) [17:55] yes bushbaby , that would be nice [17:56] hey ow [17:57] Freedos is free and quite good. [17:57] better then msdos in a great many ways [17:57] how do i disable font bluring ? [17:57] wait, MS DOS what [17:57] deposito: why do you need dos on virtualbox anyway? There is the dosbox and dosemu emulators [17:57] geekphreak, "The Connection has timed out The server at #my ip(correct i checked with ifconfig)# is taking too long to respond. The site could be temporarily unavailable. Try again in a few moments. etc etc (Other suggestions like network settings and firewalls (both ok)) [17:58] * geekphreak does'nt get idea of people using dos emulator, with bash around which is way more powerfull [17:58] <_blackwater_> * some things just work better without windoze. [17:58] bushbaby: hope you are not using internal ip , you have to use external ip [17:59] dunas, let me know if recreating your account works. [17:59] deposito, I'd recommend trying DosBox over trying to run MS-DOS in VBox (though it's possible) [17:59] geekphreak, yes i'm using external ip. [17:59] bens, will do, was waiting to launch firefox until the restricted packages installed [17:59] bushbaby: port 80 open in router?

[18:02] naaw that uses a different por bushbaby [18:02] port* [18:02] deposito: why are you doing this anyway? dosbox can access local linux dirs. so you could mount a share to a linux directory, then let dosbox access that [18:02] deposito, i've never played with dosemu before, so no help on that front. Shared folders? not entirely sure what you mean, but dosbox with proper configuration can certainly use your linux directories. Good luck. [18:02] bushbaby: can i pm you? [18:03] Hm [18:03] anyone using mutt or configured it before...please help me to do it. [18:03] Maxtor_111: dont ask to ask. just ask [18:03] geekphreak, yes, though i'm quite new to irc so not sure how it works.. heh.. [18:04] hi all [18:04] bens, how did you delete the account? [18:05] Dr_Willis, im not trying to play. I need it to work. I have one pc with XP acting as a server. Sharing some folder and all the clients access to it. (right now all with xp).

[18:20] FirstSgt: ssh tunneling isn't port forwarding until it gets to its destinations...

[18:25] err **"If I put ra0 in /etc/netw....." [18:26] LzrdKing, BedMan: How would I tell the server (behind the firewall) where to initiate the connection to? [18:26] I've tried adding "pre-up sleep 20" - no change [18:26] jrib, about the guest session, exactly all changes? like browser bookmarks, filesystem, application settings etc [18:27] Chetic: yeah, everythingg [18:27] FirstSgt: look to the man pages for ssh, they will help. it seems confusing at first, admittedly, but try a few things [18:27] im familiar with reverse bind shells... running nc listening on whatever port on the client side. but how would I do that via VPN or VNC? [18:27] unixabg: can i ask you something, why do you wana do that? [18:27] FirstSgt: you'd need a box you could ssh to directly; indeed thats all logmein and teamviewer provide, that middle box on the internet, not behind a firewall [18:27] FirstSgt: the same way you would login to the remote box in chicago... [18:27] BedMan: It seems as though I would have to run a 1 min cron to check a web server for which ip to connect to. [18:27] jrib, did not know that! thanks! [18:27] If I disable windows notifications with this command - http://pastebin.com/MX288izK - can I undo it later? [18:28] BedMan: the server in chiago I control the firewall to. and I allow ssh connections via no-auth / and public key [18:28] geekphreak, I have a unit in a colo rack that I do not want centos on and I want to move it to either Debian or Ubuntu. [18:28] Chetic: that's probably the easiest way, just make sure guest has read access to your music library [18:28] hI all , ubuntu when ubuntu 10.05 release ? do u know certainty [18:28] thnk [18:28] BedMan: so it accepts the connections. [18:28] :D [18:28] BedMan: the office one does not accept connections. [18:28] !isitout | fanani [18:28] fanani: nope. Lucid is due sometime on the 29th of April. Await the release in #ubuntu-release-party [18:28] FirstSgt: your IP changed every minute or something? [18:28] unixabg: starting from scratch would be a good idea, you can import emails and all that later , much less hassel [18:28] <_blackwater_> FirstSgt 'tunnelling' implies use of ipsec encryption, if that protocal is disallowed through the firewalled interfaces then your tunnelled connection to the admin controlled office wouldn't work. [18:28] changed* [18:28] FirstSgt: see PM [18:28] LzrdKing: no. it never changes at the office. [18:29] BedMan: ok [18:29] geekphreak, I am thinking if I could setup to reboot and launch an automated install I can pass the ip information on boot param. [18:29] but in ubuntu site , a reade as available soon [18:29] hi guys whats up [18:29] FirstSgt: why would you need cron to check a webserver for the ip? [18:29] nada [18:29] is the release is tomowrow ? [18:29] fanani, yes :) [18:30] LzrdKing: prob. dynamic ip updating ? [18:30] ok , thank imath .... n womorow we willl party [18:30] :D [18:30] anyone here who has experience with chinese scim? [18:30] hihi [18:30] :) === andrew_ is now known as Guest88083 [18:30] geekphreak: he said its static [18:31] LzrdKing: oh my bad, i apologize [18:31] hi my brother in os [18:31] !awn [18:31] Avant Window Navigator is a dock-like navigation bar for the Linux desktop that positions itself at the bottom of the screen. Homepage http://wiki.awn-project.org/ - Awn-Manager can be found in Universe from Hardy (8.04) onwards. [18:31] is this the support channel? [18:31] dreyk: Yes. [18:31] privet perni [18:32] i devushki [18:32] anyone can help me with how to use scim? [18:32] LzrdKing: the servers at the office accept no incoming connections, but the outside IP is static [18:32] FirstSgt: can you ssh to any computer that is accessable on the internet? [18:32] dreyk, in what way? [18:32] yep [18:33] im trying to use chinese input via scim [18:33] LzrdKing: yes. our production web server has ssh via public key on different port [18:33] but i dont know how to switch to that language [18:33] using pinyin I suppose? [18:33] yes [18:33] I attached a SATA disk to USB via a sata to usb converter cable and I Get this "sd 2:0:0:0: Attached scsi disk sdd" in dmesg but fdisk -l doesnt show /dev/sdd. any idea what I can I do to get info about the disk/mount it? mount /dev/sdd doesn't work. thanks. [18:33] FirstSgt: so ssh there, and use the -L or -R options to forward ports [18:33] hi all: error in pdns-recursor. when using apt-get, aptitude, synaptic. how-to remove it? [18:34] dreyk, have you got SCIM icon on your screen? [18:34] can't remove it by using standart options [18:34] no how does that look like? [18:34] keyboard? [18:34] hmm [18:35] maek try changing usb port [18:35] dreyk, yup, could also look like a keyboard and/or a small square icon with SC on top and IM on bottom in that small square icon [18:35] maek: just checking if port is ok [18:35] so, if this computer is my ubuntu server, then open an ssh connection to web server (with -L or -R).... and I can just "resume session" somehow ? [18:35] invoke-rc.d: initscript pdns-recursor, action "start" failed. [18:35] there is only a keyboard symbol in my panel [18:35] nothing at the bottom [18:36] Everyone ready for 10.04? (A) [18:36] dreyk, try clicking on it and see if you get a square box with the words scim [18:36] !lucid > Bjarnovikus [18:36] Bjarnovikus, please see my private message [18:36] FirstSgt: you'd ssh to the port you're forwarding [18:36] geekphreak: nice. thanks that did it [18:36] maek: no worries [18:36] nothing, only when i right click on it i can do some configuring [18:36] hey all [18:37] <_blackwater_> !hi | skrite_ [18:37] skrite_: 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! [18:37] dreyk, hmm but that's the scim configuration window? [18:37] LzrdKing: do you konw of a good guide or a good term to google for? [18:38] FirstSgt: google for vnc over ssh [18:38] i'm looking for a an alternative to Songbird that at least as useful and just as pretty (now that the morons as Mozilla arent support LInux platforms anymore) [18:38] i guess so [18:38] any suggestions? [18:38] LzrdKing: thanks [18:38] LzrdKing: thanks for your time too [18:39] dreyk, if you can get into the scim configurations through that keyboard icon, you should see a new window popping up with big words clearly indicating SCIM [18:39] FirstSgt: if you want cli access, install screen abd use on the server you want to access [18:39] how do i get sharp fonts on ubuntu ??! [18:39] install and use screen* [18:39] yeah im in there [18:39] mod, i wish i knew of one - i dropped songbird like a stone on the announcement they're dropping support for Linux - I'm using Rhythmbox right now, but it really isn't as cool/neat [18:40] whats song bird for? [18:40] what time tomorrow is ubuntu 10 coming? :) [18:40] geekphreak: itunes ish. music [18:40] !lucid > xomp [18:40] xomp, please see my private message [18:40] oh ok thanks meak [18:40] dreyk, ok first go into GTK (under Panel) [18:40] yeah im in [18:41] !luci [18:41] xomp, the time of release is never known [18:41] !lucid [18:41] 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 - Await the release in #ubuntu-release-party [18:41] cheers [18:41] dreyk, no under the Show: option click on always, so that you should get that fancy square icon and hit apply [18:41] i got show: always and everything ticked except for the bottom line === private is now known as superkoklo [18:42] how can I solve this APT issue? http://pastebin.com/xKaQpeRV [18:42] is there something I have to do to make an applet show up in the list of available applets after I install them? I installed the sensors-applet, but it doesn't show up in the list of available applets I can install to the panel [18:42] dreyk, hmm you'll probably need to restart scim for it to take effect [18:42] Yo! 10.4 released tomorrow ? :D [18:42] !lucid > Guest53826 [18:42] Guest53826, please see my private message [18:42] well i already had that on "always" [18:42] can someone tell me how i can setup menu like this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KX6UEt632c4 ?? ..bottom menu [18:42] :o [18:42] how do i restart scim btw? [18:43] <_tsolox_> with regards to active/passive ftp connection between a client & server, an active-ftp client using 'high-port' connects to server port21. The server responds back data via the 'high port'. Question: Is this 'high port' the value that the server detected upon client's initial connection? Or is it further negotiated, and this means it could have a different value, from what the client uses during initial contact to the server. [18:43] goodnight folks [18:43] dreyk, not sure I personally use the command line way, via pkill [18:43] is there a terminal command to eject a usb disk? [18:43] Does ubuntu not have Duke Nukem 3D? [18:43] can the terminal do like anything? [18:43] <_tsolox_> maek: umount [18:43] like open a file [18:44] _tsolox_: the high port is determined on the system that initiated the connection, and is not defined. [18:44] or run an executable [18:44] WXZ: It can do everything :/ [18:44] in the terminal? [18:44] maek, yes eject [18:44] dreyk, yup, I'm a bit old fashioned [18:44] alright guest53226 [18:44] _tsolox_, psycho_oreos : thanks [18:44] so it can like open a ~certain~ note from tomboy notes? [18:44] ;) [18:44] dreyk, there might be a way to do it through the GUI but I wouldn't know personally [18:44] maek, no worries, if that fails you might need sudo [18:44] WXZ: yep, you can even watch videos in the terminal [18:44] haha, im sorry but i dont know how to use that command [18:45] hold on a second, I"m going to go cry [18:45] im pretty new to everything i guess, switched to linux few days ago [18:45] dreyk, well in terminal, what I'd do is "sudo pkill scim-launcher" [18:45] <_tsolox_> BedMan: how does the client tell the server of this high port value? [18:45] can someone tell me how i can setup menu like this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KX6UEt632c4 ?? ..bottom menu [18:46] ok did that [18:46] huh, where has the hotkey to restart X (ctrl alt backspace) gone ?! [18:46] _tsolox_: its part of the connection protocol with TCP [18:46] theuros: Avant window navigator [18:46] _tsolox_: take a look at your netstat -an sometime [18:46] thanx [18:46] JodaZ: yeah, i've tried control-alt-backspace myself several times, it no work no more [18:47] dreyk, now do "sudo scim-launcher &" [18:47] JodaZ: it's now something like Ctrl+PrntScr+K [18:47] If I disable windows notifications with this command - http://pastebin.com/MX288izK - can I undo it later? [18:47] control-alt-delete doesn't restart from inside X either [18:47] dreyk, you should have scim icon by now if not try logging out and log back in [18:47] Manfred-: can you very that? [18:47] ok wait a minute [18:47] LzrdKing: sure, sec' [18:48] JodaZ: replaced with alt+sysreq+k [18:48] ok [18:48] if you run Fluxbox, you better not press ctrl-alt-del - it will kill your x session :) [18:48] it says: scim-launcher: command not found [18:48] stodorovic: openbox does not [18:48] stodorovic, you can rebind the keys for that... check under ~/.fluxbox/keys [18:48] lol, i just got flooded with save screenshot thingys [18:48] arand: why the change, and can the sequence be changed? [18:48] Where is sources file located? I mean the file, where I can add/del new software links [18:49] dreyk, but you executed that pkill command and it didn't fail? [18:49] and omfg, they aint grouped in the taskbar so i need to close them one by one [18:49] arand: but that's the magic sysrq keys... [18:49] <_tsolox_> BedMan: how about for "passive ftp" wherein it's the client that ask for data..and not the server pushing data back to the client? [18:49] where is sysreg anyways ? [18:49] Is anybody running broadcom 4306 drivers? [18:49] owner: /etc/apt/source.list iirc [18:49] LzrdKing: It was considered to easy to hit by mistake [18:49] tHAnks [18:49] dominicdinada, not I, why? [18:49] i was asked for pw but no errors [18:49] arand: how can it be changed? [18:50] JodaZ: Commonly the same or close to printscrn [18:50] yeah, worked now [18:50] how do i change screen resolution ? [18:50] dreyk, try "which scim-launcher" [18:50] psycho_oreos: I am having alot of problems since yesterday [18:50] LzrdKing: In keyboard properties - advanced, it can be re-enabled [18:50] How do I change the theme of the login screen? [18:50] LzrdKing: *keyboard layout [18:50] dominicdinada, of what sort? [18:50] hey in ubuntu, when I do a bunch of actions [18:50] tried. nothing happened [18:51] like open windows and such [18:51] can I see the corresponding terminal commands? [18:51] I had everything working before yesterday and then yesterday I added Kubuntu-desktop and removed wine and all of a sudden it killed my built in wifi [18:51] a sort of similar thing happened to me dominic [18:51] WXZ, you can't, not unless if its a script instead of a program [18:51] arand: i'm not using gnome, is it in an X config file somewhere? [18:51] dang [18:52] dominicdinada, meaning you have no wifi connection and that you can't scan for networks? [18:52] LzrdKing, there's no xorg config file by default, its all autoprobed.. [18:52] I readded wine but after adding the drivers the interfaces are still not showing up, not only are they not showing up they are reserved... so the other 3 external wifi devices i have start at wlan3-4-5 [18:52] correct [18:52] no ideas? [18:52] !dontzap | LzrdKing [18:52] LzrdKing: To re-enable the Ctrl-Alt-Backspace combination that restarts your X server see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/DontZap [18:53] dominicdinada, sounds like you're missing b43-fwcutter iirc its a tool you need to cut the firmwares out... because they are proprietary [18:53] arand: thanks! [18:53] dominicdinada: that is defined in one of the udev rules I think.. check /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules [18:53] And don't send me to that USELESS post on the broadcom drivers I did that 2 the T on 6 distro's and it never worked I added the winblows drivers and it worked like a charm [18:53] ok i will check [18:53] dreyk, try logging out and logging back in (on the xorg session) I'm trying to look for that scim-launcher's actual location [18:54] after booting & logging in wireless interface ra0 is "up" but not using any of the wpa vars in /etc/network/interfaces (ie. wpa-ssid/wpa-psk...) - If I do 'ifdown ra0' then 'ifup ra0' everything connects perfectly - any ideas? [18:54] dominicdinada: I think that every time ubuntu finds a new network device it adds it to that file and increments the number.. same thing with wired network cards [18:54] ok thank you so far. brb [18:54] dominicdinada, well in that case you'll need ndiswrapper and of course the driver disc or the windows ndis drivers for that broadcom [18:54] i have ndiswrapper [18:55] this may be over asked but does anyone know the release date of 10.04LTS? [18:55] Slart, its to do with udev rules, you can modify that, I have had that happening and I commented all these incremented other irrelevant wireless interfaces out [18:55] !lucid > pbmarcano_ [18:55] pbmarcano_, please see my private message [18:55] pbmarcano_ tommorow [18:55] the drivers say they are installed but "Unable to see if network hardware is present" everytime i load ndiswrapper [18:55] If I disable windows notifications with this command - http://pastebin.com/MX288izK - can I undo it later? [18:55] pbmarcano_: ask in #ubuntu+1, there might be a release party channel somewhere as well [18:55] alt-sysrw-k is a pain to hit, since the k is in between the other keys and they are so far apart; you almost need 3 hands for it [18:55] Slart: #ubuntu-release-party , its in the !lucid factoid now [18:56] dominicdinada, can you pastebin (not paste) your dmesg output? [18:56] psycho_oreos: yes.. or you can remove them.. ubuntu will happily add them to that file again [18:56] LzrdKing: I sometimes use my nose :) [18:56] <{g}> Hey People! On this machine here (Ubuntu 8.04) the Update Manager keeps popping up and wants to intall an irssi update. But then comes up with a 404 not found error messages. Any ideas about this? [18:56] Pici: ah, thanks [18:56] {g}: probably the repo address has moved or is not supported anymore [18:56] Slart, true, which will be a problem for me if and when that comes around again :), probably just setup persistent rules :) [18:56] pbmarcano_: the release party channel is #ubuntu-release-party .. they probably have a counter up or something [18:56] <{g}> stodorovic: ubuntu 8.04 is not supported anymore? [18:57] !8.04 [18:57] Ubuntu 8.04-LTS (Hardy Heron) was the eighth release of Ubuntu. Downloading: http://releases.ubuntu.com/8.04 - See !lts for more details. [18:57] im back [18:57] so where do i launch scim again? [18:57] {g}: how would I know... i hate using ubuntu :( [18:57] dreyk, did you get the scim box? [18:57] <{g}> stodorovic: why? [18:57] no there is no box and no keyboard icon in the panel either [18:57] {g}: Which repository are you trying to fetch the package from? [18:57] {g}: I think it's still supported.. 5 years? or 3 years? have you checked the ubuntu site? there is a diagram somewhere with the ed-of-life dates for each version [18:57] {g}: because there are too many things here that seem to restrict software development on it. [18:57] hey all [18:57] Is there a way to check my harddrive? [18:58] I'm hearing a whistling noise sometimes and I just want to make sure it's not the hdd [18:58] hi [18:58] dreyk, hmm :/ try "sudo /usr/lib/scim-1.0/scim-launcher" [18:58] armence_: there a disk utility.. in system, administration I think [18:58] armence_: take out the hard drive, and look at it for dust and finger marks? [18:58] if i copy a hard link does the full size of the file get copied or just a link to the location? [18:58] anyone know how to launch a tomboy note from terminal? [18:58] stodorovic, That's also a good idea [18:58] dominicdinada, use pastebin please :) [18:58] <{g}> Pici: W: Failed to fetch http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/i/irssi/irssi_0.8.12-3ubuntu3.2_i386.deb 404 Not Found [18:59] armence_: then there's fsck to check the filesystem.. that doesn't really check the harddrive though [18:59] dont know pastebin lol [18:59] <{g}> Pici: thats the error the update manager shows. [18:59] !pastebin | dominicdinada [18:59] dominicdinada: For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://tinyurl.com/imagebin | !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic. [18:59] !pastebin [18:59] is Lucid official? [18:59] <{g}> Slart: if its not supported anymore, why would ubuntu send a "hey, update irssi" message to my machine? [18:59] !lucid > thevishy [18:59] thevishy, please see my private message [18:59] {g}: issue an apt-get update, it looks like that package was superceded by a newer version. [18:59] thanks [19:00] <{g}> stodorovic: for example what? cant you just type "vim mystuff" and code whatever you want? [19:00] it says "starting scim..." but nothings happening [19:00] <{g}> Pici: ok [19:00] {g}: once a version goes past its end-of-life it doesn't recieve updates any more.. afaik.. if you've added 3rd party repositories those might still update though [19:00] Loading simple Config module ... [19:00] {g}: are you sure 8.04 support is over? [19:00] Creating backend ... [19:00] Loading socket FrontEnd module ... [19:00] Starting SCIM ... [19:00] {g}: you are forced to use initrd for example :) and so so so so many -devel packages you need to pull. And it's also quite unstable in my experience. [19:00] dreyk: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [19:01] dreyk, and is there an icon? [19:01] Slart: 8.04 is still supported for another year for desktop packages. [19:01] {g}: the fact that you *have* to specify an absolute version number when installing if there are more targets [19:01] no icon on desktop, no icon on panel :( [19:02] dreyk, sounds like there is a possibility the settings has been changed somewhere [19:02] {g}: oh... and the fact that Ubuntu does not seem to have (working) ClanBomber package, nor an existing Duke Nukem 3D ;) [19:02] hi, how does ubuntu deal with fan speed control? today I installed debian testing, and while in ubuntu the speed scaling has always worked perfectly, in debian all my fans run at full speed [19:02] which settings? can i redo them anyway? [19:02] dreyk, pastebin (not paste) your "ps -A| grep scim" output === pdtpatrick__ is now known as pdtpatrick [19:03] dreyk: Have you seen https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SCIM ? [19:03] {g}: here's the chart I was talking about.. seems 8.04 is supported until middle of 2011 http://www.ubuntu.com/products/ubuntu/release-cycle === usser is now known as usser_ === usser_ is now known as usser [19:03] Slart: Someone else said it wasn't supported, not {g} [19:03] lucid for kubuntu is out tomorrow by the way [19:03] <{g}> stodorovic: i really dont know anything about desktop coding. i do everything web based these days. what would you like to code? [19:03] 10.4 ls [19:03] !ot | stodorovic {g} [19:03] stodorovic {g}: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! [19:03] !party > dominicdinada [19:03] dominicdinada, please see my private message [19:03] {g}: in any case, the file you want to update (irssi) is not in that directory, but the directory is accessible. maybe someone made a typo in the package name, or didn't mirror it to that address? [19:03] Pici: hmm.. I think I need some more coffee =) [19:04] psycho_oreos: did you get my pastebin [19:04] stodorovic: That package was superceded by a newer version, {g} probably needs to update his package lists. see https://edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/irssi/+publishinghistory [19:04] dominicdinada, yeah just finished checking it and it seems to be an issue with the ndis driver (most likely) [19:05] your command does nothing. theres no output [19:05] does anyone know how to share a ntfs harddrive with write permissions ? [19:05] Ok should I remove the driver ? [19:05] Pici: yeah I just saw there is .14 on there instead of .12 [19:06] dominicdinada, either that or maybe you need to check to see if the kernel can see the card (via lspci -nn) and if not, you might need to append acpi=off at boot [19:06] dreyk, you typed that in another terminal? [19:06] <{g}> stodorovic: trying apt-get update; apt-get upgrade now [19:06] Custom-compiled vanilla kernel without initrd/initramfs on Ubuntu and fully booting, not going via any Ubuntu build process / dpkg / etc - possible or not? [19:06] mark1, over network? [19:07] <{g}> stodorovic: seems to have worked! [19:07] psycho_oreos: 02:02.0 Network controller [0280]: Broadcom Corporation BCM4306 802.11b/g Wireless LAN Controller [14e4:4320] (rev 03) [19:07] {g}: good :) [19:07] no in the same one [19:07] <{g}> stodorovic: thanks! [19:07] stodorovic: no; will fail to boot without initramfs becouse the root fs is indicated via uuid [19:07] it is seeing the wireless device [19:07] 12058 ? 00:00:00 scim-launcher [19:07] 12062 ? 00:00:00 scim-helper-man [19:07] 12063 ? 00:00:00 scim-panel-gtk [19:07] 12065 ? 00:00:00 scim-launcher [19:07] 12482 ? 00:00:00 scim-launcher [19:07] dreyk: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [19:07] dominicdinada, ok so it sees it, might be a hardware switch that turns the device on or off and its set to off [19:07] oh im sorry [19:08] erUSUL: I've had non-initrd kernels boot and mount the correct filessystems by UUID with no problems. [19:08] granted, it was on Slackware [19:08] holas! el canal español porfavor? [19:08] stodorovic: dunno last time i tried it failed [19:08] !es | selofi [19:08] selofi: 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. [19:08] gracias [19:08] <{g}> I sometimes lose my wireless connection and then i have no idea to get it back. Is there a command line tool that is doing what the nm-applet is doing? I would like to play around with that next time. I really hat gui stuff. [19:08] has anyone got java plugin working in chromium? Worked before upgrading to lucid [19:08] dreyk, err ok, well it seems like its running, in fact 3 sessions of scim-launcher, I think there was an issue with my pkill command I suggested, and yeah the third one was where you executed it manually [19:08] an Interrupt ? this card is internal but this model of laptop has a wifi button which now that you mention it is not lit up. It used to be but when I press it nothing happens [19:09] psycho_oreos: an Interrupt ? this card is internal but this model of laptop has a wifi button which now that you mention it is not lit up. It used to be but when I press it nothing happens [19:09] <_blackwater_> {g tail -f /var/log/syslog [19:09] erUSUL: I only ask because the last time I tried I had to rip out a ton of files out of the initrd and into the rootfs, otherwise it could not boot - it's as if Ubuntu has messed up the Linux boot process [19:09] but how come i dont see the panel at all? [19:09] <_blackwater_> in a console screen of course [19:10] dominicdinada, yeah its possible I mean its not easy to debug ndis errors, afterall with windows drivers, you're dealing with binary blob [19:10] stodorovic: afaik is pretty standar; the same as debian's [19:10] dreyk, its very possible that the session has not been killed cleanly (scim-launcher), hang on let me try something myself [19:10] erUSUL: I think some might disagree about it being standard ;) [19:10] <{g}> _blackwater_: i meant some tool like "connect-wlan " that displays something like "trying to connect. succes. trying to login. failed. error message: wrong password" or something. the nm-applet just dies without any message. [19:10] thank you so much [19:11] stodorovic: :) [19:11] well it should be somewhat easy because everything was 100% fine until i added Kubuntu-desktop and removed wine. I since re-added wine but no luck! So that was when everything caused a problem [19:11] if it helps the laptop is a hp zv5100 [19:11] <_blackwater_> {g syslog provides the telemetry you're looking for, does it not? [19:11] erUSUL: I am tempted to try it on my laptop - I sorta need to do some tests on a laptop at work tomorrow so it could be useful to know just how painful it would be [19:11] <{g}> _blackwater_: maybe. i will try it next time. thank you! [19:12] if i copy a hard link does the full size of the file get copied or just a link to the location? [19:12] stodorovic: why do you want to avoid initramfs ? [19:12] <_blackwater_> {g} wpasupplicant uses syslog for connection status. [19:12] sp0spo: full size [19:12] sp0spo: I would expect the full file to be copied. /me checks [19:13] dreyk, you there? [19:13] erUSUL: I dont like it. Plus I don't want to step on ubuntu's toes since it will probably overwrite all bootup settings when it gets an upgrade [19:13] stodorovic: i do ; make ; make install ; make modules_install ; mkinitrmfs -o ... ; sudo update-grub [19:13] <{g}> sp0spo: you mean with the "cp somefile"? that will copy the file. there really is no difference between a "hardlink" and a "file" every file is a hardlink. [19:13] stodorovic: it allways works (tm) [19:13] psycho_oreos, yea === frf2 is now known as frf2_ [19:13] dominicdinada, I'm presuming because of the deps were interweaved, so when you removed kubuntu-desktop, it may have removed alot of deps, even at those not really related (like very remotely) [19:14] mark1, wrong person, lol what was your issue? I somewhat lost track [19:14] Sorry to correct you I removed WINE... and added Kubuntu-Desktop [19:14] erUSUL: thanks- i'll take a look in a minute - on pjhone now [19:14] Anyone has tried ubuntu with the Asus EEE t101mt ? [19:14] im here [19:15] dominicdinada, well I'm not sure, the configs somewhere or something is messed up.. and what's wrong with using b43 anyway? [19:15] psycho_oreos, haha thats so funny how your response made applied to my question, nah if you busy its chilled [19:15] Good afternoon- am trying to upgrade to 10.4 from 9.10 using 'do-release-upgrade -d' and keep getting WARNING: Failed to read mirror file and server overloade [19:15] mapu : Please join #ubuntu+1 for Lucid/10.04 support/discussion. [19:15] dreyk, ok do you have a terminal running with that scim-launcher? if not, don't run it [19:15] it has never worked I spent months trying each and every TUT that I found regarding using the b43 cutter [19:16] i only have that terminal open where i got the output from [19:16] Hello Everyone.. [19:16] salut all [19:16] Never Ever Ever Ever worked I finally wiped the distro and added the drivers [19:16] dominicdinada, though I'm sure its generally a case with rfkill if something is not making that card work with b43, as with ndiswrapper I have no clue :) [19:17] i am using Ubuntu 9.1 and my menu.lst file is empty.. [19:17] does anyone know how to share a ntfs harddrive over the network with write permissions ?? :) [19:17] pls help! [19:17] so shall i close that window or not? [19:17] mark1: samba? [19:18] is there anyone from italy here? [19:18] Sigh Well if you have any solid ideas to get it working beside all the damn useless time wasting tutorial pages I am game I have 5 driver packages and tried eachone seperatly over time with no avail [19:18] dreyk, ok, do this (without quotes) "for i in `ps -A| grep scim| awk '{FS=" "; print $1}'`; do kill $i; done" [19:18] CaptainTrek, i have samba and i am able ot share it but for some reason i cant take off the read only restriction [19:19] dominicdinada, well I don't have exactly that chipset but I never had an issue getting b43 to work (I have one broadcom chipset on a pcmcia card, bcm4318) [19:19] Followed Tutorial pages sometimes 20 pages deep trouble shooting each of other users encounters :P [19:19] hmmm [19:19] bash: kill: (12482) - Operation not permitted [19:19] isnt your driver package the same one as mine ? [19:20] dominicdinada, yeah its an issue with broadcrap honestly, their conceited bunch and hence the drivers were reverse engineered do that they work on linux, but of course not always a perfect solution [19:20] dominicdinada, I'd say so, dunno which distro you have running [19:20] <_pg_> ssh/vnc is hard guys [19:20] if what you say is true and what i am seeing that now i notice my hardware button on the laptop is off but when I press it nothing happens how do i go about bypassing and turning the button on via conf [19:21] dreyk, hmm hang on [19:21] 9.10 [19:21] dreyk, ok, do this (without quotes) "for i in `ps -A| grep scim| awk '{FS=" "; print $1}'`; do sudo kill $i; done" === krafty_ is now known as krafty [19:21] dominicdinada, ahh I'm using 9.04, which shouldn't be too much of a difference either way [19:22] 1 2dreyk@dreyk-laptop:~$ ps -A| grep scim 12482 ? 00:00:00 scim-launcher [19:22] dominicdinada, well normally the laptop button would light up if its bios controlled, but it sounds like its software/kernel controlled.. meaning its on the OS level not the hardware level [19:22] this time theres only one scim launcher left [19:22] Broadcrap or not Broadcom was one the most popular wifi chipsets/ cards when WIFI first started out. WHY all Distros dont package the drivers, is Assanine [19:23] <_pg_> are there any easy guides /docs to ssh and vnc and all that stuff? I am pretty lost on the whole thing [19:23] ok "sudo kill 12482" [19:23] ok [19:23] was that for me? [19:23] dominicdinada, in fact broadcom never was popular, never was never is.. Intersil was the actual popular one till they got bought out by conexant [19:23] psycho_oreas, that command for me? [19:23] dreyk, yes that sudo kill command [19:24] ok done. no more scim launcher [19:24] what hour is going 10.04 is going to be released? [19:25] dominicdinada, and the drivers were included as of >=2.6.26 via mac80211 framework and now integrated into kernel.. however the firmware is still proprietary part of broadcom [19:25] !lucid > Traveler [19:25] Traveler, please see my private message [19:25] from what i remember from the advent of wireless networking Broadcom was most popular maybe not in the *nix community but I have about 15 different cards which the majority use boradcom [19:25] dreyk, ok "/usr/lib/scim-1.0/scim-launcher &" [19:25] Hi all; I'm trying to add a printer by connecting it directly to my laptop's ethernet port. I'm not sure how to proceed from there; any advice? [19:25] hmm [19:26] brb === boss is now known as weebles [19:26] what hour is going 10.04 is going to be released? [19:26] dominicdinada, probably they're cheap that's why they're commonly used, sure popular because they're everywhere but their support is shoddy, there was never once a driver written for linux initially and now even with their wl, it supports less than a handful of broadcom chipsets [19:27] !lucid > Traveler [19:27] stop asking the same questions [19:27] !lucid [19:27] 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 - Await the release in #ubuntu-release-party [19:27] thanks [19:27] hi === EdgEy_ is now known as EdgEy [19:28] dreyk, do you get any icons? [19:28] What would be the best and easiest tool to make a good image of your linux partition preferable including mbr? [19:28] it says starting but still no icon [19:28] Dr-Ubuntu: if you want to make an image, dd. if you want the files, rsync [19:28] thanks [19:28] launcher is running [19:28] Dr-Ubuntu, partimage [19:28] Can a mini install be done from the full install cd? The mini install disk is missing the necessary drivers for my network card, so it won't work. [19:29] amereservant: no, i've tried [19:29] dreyk, very weird, I've just tested that on mine and it worked, instead of the icon for scim I get the keyboard [19:29] amereservant: if you however get it to work in some random way, plz tell me. :P [19:29] Ok, I followed the instructions here: http://www.howtoforge.com/reverse-ssh-tunneling and it works. How do I do vpn over the ssh reversed? [19:29] m0RrE, Dang. I was afraid of that. I have no idea how to find the driver it needs to make the mini install work. [19:30] yeah i dont even get the keyboard icon on my panel [19:30] psycho_oreos: ok well how do I go about working on my hardware buttons assuming that is the problem then [19:30] its really weird its making me crazy [19:31] I have ubuntu server with no desktop env. is there a way to copy/paste? [19:31] I know screen has a "copy mode" === weebles is now known as weeblio [19:32] dominicdinada, I wouldn't worry about that honestly, that could very well be something to do with led_cfg which is part of linux kernel and you'd need programming knowledge.. I'd get b43 working first and then if all goes well you get that led light to work, otherwise its not of a big deal [19:32] FirstSgt: ssh server + remoting into the box through gui [19:32] i dont want to give up on linux just because of that ... :( [19:32] the b43 cutter is already installed grrrrrrrr === marcspitz is now known as MarcSpitz [19:33] dreyk, looking through the scim help files, here are some pointers: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/InputMethods/SCIM/Setup and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SCIM [19:33] exit [19:34] dominicdinada, check under /lib/firmware/ to see if there's a directory called b43, if so, check in there to see if there's files ending with .fw [19:34] alright ill try my best, thank you for your help. apreciate that [19:34] hello I need help wth uhuntu 9.10. what irc client can be install on ubuntu 9.10? [19:34] have a good day [19:35] FirstSgt: hilight the text you want to copy.. move to the location you want to place it and either middle mouse click or right+left click at the same time [19:35] dreyk: it shouldn't be of an issue with that config... [19:35] ahh he left :/ [19:35] ctizz [19:35] I use pidgin [19:35] pidgin can be install on unbuntu?

[19:36] ctizz: go to Applications -> Ubuntu Software Center and you can install from there [19:36] ok ? [19:36] oh nice thanks [19:36] ctizz: you dont have to download from the web just install it from the software center in ubuntu [19:36] let me try [19:37] Ctizz: also get the debain package manager it makes installing some packages alot easier [19:37] oh it has a built in? [19:37] hi there [19:37] i can't boot on pc [19:37] ctizz: or in a terminal... sudo apt-get install pidgin xchat ... and it will install both [19:37] i got grub problem [19:37] how to solve it [19:37] ctizz: you dont need to download anything most of the time (through brwoser i mean), use one of the software centers [19:37] now i m from the live cd [19:37] hi dears [19:37] dominicdinada, lsmod| grep ndiswrapper [19:37] !grub2 > hjkls [19:37] hjkls, please see my private message [19:37] please how do i add a default route?

[19:41] WXZ: in terminal [19:41] i see [19:41] dominicdinada, sudo modprobe b43 [19:42] Is there any multi-threaded h.264 codec I can install? I've just installed fglrx to try and get x264 to playback more smoothly and it hasn't helped, checked the driver is actually running etc [19:42] EdgEy: dont think so [19:42] VLC only uses 1 core [19:42] ok === shadenzo is now known as gayFotter [19:42] can I use the man command [19:42] dominicdinada, now I'll need you to pastebin me again your dmesg output [19:42] for most applications? [19:42] you can do hardware accelerated decoding, but not sure if it works with ati, and probably only works with mplayer?

The install has been taking over an hour. The last 45 minutes has been on the purple haze screen with the mouse cursor only. The cursor oscillates between a pointer and the spinning icon. Is this to be expected? Or is the installation hung? [19:43] yayyy [19:43] WXZ, yes it'll just call up manual pages if it exists === gayFotter is now known as shadenzo [19:43] this is useful [19:43] dominicdinada, I'd consider that a bonus :P anyway the important part is to get b43 working [19:44] ok [19:44] !lucid > Matterco [19:44] Matterco, please see my private message [19:44] dominicdinada, so again :) needing dmesg output into pastebin or at least the last 30 lines [19:44] here is my problem. first sentense in the abstract: http://www.freshpatents.com/-dt20091203ptan20090300721.php === shadenzo is now known as Satana [19:45] I can reformat a Seagate portable hard drive from its default file system to ext3 with gparted and it will work fine, right?

[19:46] going to look into that, atm I can't play high bitrate videos smoothly on my system and it's hardly underpowered [19:46] hello all, is that any calculator, what can calculate days between 2 defined dates ?

[19:50] brontosaurusrex, using top or system monitor [19:50] via top I suppose [19:50] it pegs one core at 100% and the others are at 5% [19:50] Top is good [19:50] and stutters in high action scenes [19:50] lol [19:50] helo room [19:50] EdgEy: let me try with smplayer gui thingy.... [19:51] Heloo Room"!!"!"!"

[19:56] dominicdinada, sounds like there's definitely another process interfering, check the last few lines of dmesg along with the paste that you sent me last in regards to b43 and see if the same message still appears on the last line (i.e. no new log entries) [19:56] !dns-google [19:56] will ubuntu satanic edition be updated with the new release ?

[19:57] CuBrA-: that isn't a supported variant, you will have to check with their support [19:57] I can play 720p fine [19:57] shall i paste the 7 or so lines in private to you psycho? [19:57] dominicdinada, I'd much prefer you to use pastebin for that instead of pasting into the query window.. but no, that's not what I want [19:57] I have a 15mbit 1080p video that just struggles on every high movement scene and caps one core [19:57] EdgEy: its 1280x720, 24p [19:57] I ran iwconfig long before i got the dmesg ill pastebin it [19:57] where is ubuntu lucid [19:58] ??

GDM's not in the rcX.d directories and it still starts automatically [19:59] EdgEy: in vlc or smplayer? [19:59] dominicdinada, hmm there's definitely some other process interfering it, pastebin (not paste) your ps -A output [19:59] where is ubuntu 10??

Win7 has this part, is it possible on ubuntu ?

[20:01] mark1: that's just a configuration thing.. or a permissions thing..I can't help you with specifics but make sure you've got the actual permissions on the files setup properly.. as well as the connection permissions in samba.. both need to allow writing or it won't work [20:01] !samba | mark1 [20:02] mark1: Samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments.

[20:02] brontosaurusrex, strange, I've set it to use 4 threads and htop still only shows one, sigh, i'll fiddle with it a bit more [20:02] I'm getting fails and unsure where/how it's logging anything [20:02] what clock in ubuntu web page? grinvich? [20:02] !upstart [20:02] Upstart is meant to replace the old Sys V Init system with an event-driven init model. For more information please see: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/ [20:02] Oer... different, is there any date built-in calculator program, or only this method ? [20:03] EdgEy: i think smplayer will use system mplayer, so maybe update/replace that one, remember smplayer is only a gui [20:03] i just use service foobar {stop,start,restart} [20:03] acicula: and when it just hangs [20:03] what do you do? [20:03] vamadir: it will be out when they release it. nobody knows. [20:03] check syslog [20:03] I'm not seeing jack in the service logs or syslog [20:03] dominicdinada, do you have aother wireless card? [20:03] brontosaurusrex, did you do anything special or just install mplayer and smplayer? [20:03] vamadir: I don't think they will wait until the clock passes twelve and then release it.. just wait 3 hours.. check their website.. wait 3 more hours.. check again.. repeat until released [20:03] it's supposed to go into syslog? [20:03] not connected or internally [20:03] I can reformat a Seagate portable hard drive from its default file system to ext3 with gparted and it will work fine, right? [20:03] depends on the script you are starting [20:03] Slart, thanks, but its kinda a trouble shooting problem, cause i know what to do its just not working, and i have a feeling cause its a ntfs hard drive, i just dont know how to fix it [20:03] dominicdinada, ok and you're using wired I presume right? [20:03] But I have 4 others that I have used before [20:03] vamadir: /join #ubuntu+1 [20:04] vamadir: or go to #ubuntu-release-party.. there you can join other people asking each other the same question [20:04] Correct right now I am Wired [20:04] EdgEy: i dont recally really, i did mess with compiling ffmpeg once or twice, so i'am not really sure in what state things are [20:04] dominicdinada, as long as you don't have more than one wireless card hooked up right now and that you're connected through wireless (via another card) [20:04] acicula: specifically mysql [20:04] EdgEy: mplayer returns 'MPlayer UNKNOWN-4.4.1 (C) 2000-2009 MPlayer Team' [20:04] (which also isn't getting anything in its logfiles) [20:04] :\ [20:05] brontosaurusrex meh i'm just going to follow this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=786095 and hope it works [20:05] No I am connected via ethernet. No other wireless cards connect besides the internal wireless which is the broadcom 4306 [20:05] dominicdinada, I think the process wpa_supplicant is the culprit, running in background and possibly preventing network manager to work [20:05] vamadir: I'm not sure if ntfs and samba needs something special to work.. sorry [20:05] I have no issue with most videos, just bitrate over 8-10mbit or so and my system chokes with lots of motion [20:05] How do I fix the problem. No networks i use has wpa [20:05] awesomely the word "logfile" is not in the wiki [20:06] of course I could kill the process but it will still be a problem later on [20:06] or mysql [20:06] josh_k: /var/log/daemon.log [20:06] EdgEy: your best bet is to use/find some dvxa method, but this will only work for some files, or install some other OS, which can use coreavc or similarly fast software decoders [20:07] dominicdinada, well if its a problem later on I suppose you can remove the program but its probably not ideal [20:07] the winbind could also be the problem [20:07] sorry vamadir, wrong nick [20:07] mark1: I'm not sure if ntfs and samba needs something special to work.. sorry [20:07] josh_k: and if you have problems starting mysql run "mysql --help" and search for debug/verbos and start it in that mode by calling mysql -v or mysql-d (have a look at the help) [20:08] I think winbind runs on a higher networking level but for the time being I suspect wpa_supplicant is the main culprit into not making network manager to work [20:08] iceroot: that's a good idea, thx [20:08] its ok [20:08] Hello. i have a little weird problem after upgrading to 10.04. nm-applet doesn't communicate with gnome-keyring-daemon anymore. it works by creating a new profile. but i don't want to do this. what change on the profile is needed? ssh-add works [20:08] !lucid | melvin [20:08] melvin: 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 - Await the release in #ubuntu-release-party [20:08] melvin: ask in #ubuntu+1 [20:09] blah i sudo kill 1135 (wpa-supplicant) now it shows networks but when i get to the screen to enter password i enter the password and the connect button never changes from being greyed out [20:09] I have an nvidia quadro nvs 295 card that is not supported in nouveau at the moment, is there a way to have the 10.04 installer force the nv drivers or do I need to blacklist nouveau? [20:09] Pres-Gas: #ubuntu+1 [20:09] aAAAAAAAAAAAAA now i using lucid beta 2 [20:09] vamadir: #ubuntu+1 [20:10] Thanks, iceroot [20:10] dominicdinada, hmm check to see if wpa_supplicant is running again [20:10] hi guys [20:10] @h00k ok [20:10] yes it is running again PID 3089 [20:11] can't wait for tomorrow... 10.04! :D [20:11] DeadmanIncJS: #ubuntu+1 [20:11] what is that [20:11] !party [20:11] Please remember that #ubuntu, #kubuntu, #xubuntu, and #edubuntu are support channels.

Made me smile alot! [20:15] yes please send them to me ? [20:15] Hi, let me explain my problem. Lots of of programs installed on ubuntu 9.10 on my machine just won't start, yelling libXXXXX.so.X : Invalid ELF header, where XXXXX is pciaccess in the case of Xorg, magic in the case of the command file, and sigc in the case of aptitude. Ideas? [20:16] mikc: virus [20:16] Also I just checked my startup and even though i removed the Wcid packages they seem to still be installed [20:16] Big thanks folks, I was able to figure out. [20:16] barberan: why? [20:16] at least in the Startup [20:16] mikc: plain ubuntu install? no extra repositories? hard drive ok? [20:16] mikc: of course its not a virus [20:16] dominicdinada, "cd && pkill {dhclient,wpa_supplicant} && mv -v `which wpa_supplicant` $PWD" [20:16] ok I will give that a go in a moment [20:17] dominicdinada, its most likely because you were connected using wireless and so the package wasn't removed cleanly I suspect [20:17] barberan: virus? just as a one word diagnose? not even a name for the virus? [20:17] plain install, maybe wine repo, on a USB flash drive, up to date (updated yesterday) [20:17] let me run janitor/reboot [20:17] i will be right back [20:17] behind a firewall, and I use it not often [20:17] mikc: hmm.. the wine repository should be ok.. what version of ubuntu? [20:17] Slart: 9.10 [20:18] Slart: I'm lucky, irssi starts ;-) [20:18] hello :) when will 10.04 will be out ? it's spouse to be today ?! [20:18] !lucid > Sayag_Samuel [20:18] Sayag_Samuel, please see my private message [20:19] mikc: I don't know of any software process that causes those errors.. I would start checking the hardware.. drives/memory etc [20:19] In case, I tried reinstalling the offendinf pacjages [20:19] Sayag_Samuel: ask in #ubuntu-release-part [20:19] Just the same errors [20:19] mikc: see hardware [20:19] Slart: My gentoo works perfectly [20:19] talk about off topic [20:19] mikc: what does "sudo apt-get update" return? can you pastebin? [20:20] :) [20:20] Slart: howto pastebin in console? [20:20] Slart: I am up to date [20:20] /usr/lib/libmagic.so.1 is part of package libmagic1... I would guess that reinstalling a bunch _might_ make it better... [20:20] mikc: oh.. you can install pastebinit ;) [20:20] !pastebinit | mike [20:20] mike: pastebinit is the command-line equivalent of !pastebin - Command output, or other text can be redirected to pastebinit, which then reports an URL containing the output - To use pastebinit, install the « pastebinit » package from a package manager - Simple usage: command | pastebinit -b http://paste.ubuntu.com [20:20] mikc: nevermind.. I'm just joking.. [20:20] hi [20:21] mikc: does apt-get work at all? or it fails as well? [20:21] apt-get works (happily) [20:21] mikc: eqiuvalently for the packages libsigc++-2.0-0c2a and libpciaccess0 [20:21] mikc: oh.. then sudp apt-get install pastebinit should do it [20:21] hey folks ... what -time- will 10.04 be available? i assume it's not 0:00 GMT [20:22] chopin: ask in #ubuntu-release-party [20:22] Slart: thanks [20:22] Slart: yes, I am tryin to figure out how it works [20:22] chopin: We do not know [20:22] mikc: you run some command blabla bla bla -blala | pastebinit and it will give you an url.. [20:22] mikc: Unfortunately, pastebinit doesn't work with current pastebin.com, you need to specify -b other pastebin [20:22] the "Virtual Machine Host" listed in the ubuntu server install..... what VM tech is that? VirtualBox? [20:23] Slart: well, other idea, what are you looking for in the update ? [20:23] mikc: what urls it's checking [20:23] jimmy51_, most likely vbox [20:24] mikc: just to see if it's the normal repos.. or if there is anything weird in that list [20:24] Slart: fr.archive.ubuntu.com and security.ubuntu.com [20:24] Slart: I compiled wine myselft [20:25] i've HP dv6-2190 notebook, can i install ubuntu on it? HP support says we don't warranty if you install linux [20:25] mikc: hmm.. those shouldn't be a problem [20:25] Is there any way to get xvidcap to stay on the workspace that it's running in, rather than follow me when I switch workspaces? [20:26] Slart: http://paste.ubuntu.com/424177 [20:26] Slart: got it ;-) [20:26] psycho_oreos: thanks [20:26] Parsi, you can, you just won't get support from HP, and if their technicians find out you're running linux you'll probably void our warranty [20:27] jimmy51_, np [20:27] mikc: I would try: "sudo apt-get install --reinstall libmagic1 libsigc++-2.0-0c2a libpciaccess0" At least for those particular missing libs. [20:27] mikc: you're running from some recovery shell at the moment, no? [20:27] Parsi, s/our/their [20:27] hey guys, my sound just quit working, it looks like my snd models are still up [20:27] arand: already done apt-get remove libxxxxxx && apt-get install libxxxxx [20:27] psycho_oreos: they said you'll got into problem for recovery [20:27] djbeenie_, what where you doing w [20:28] Slart: I am in consolen, Xorg won't start [20:28] djbeenie_, what were you doing when it stopped? [20:28] coz_ not sure just now noticed [20:28] mikc, how are you trying to start it? [20:28] possibly vmware running [20:28] Slart: even no framebuffer, coz NVIDIA prop drivers instralled [20:28] Parsi, huh? you meant you'll go into problem if you go into recovery? what the software recovery? [20:28] djbeenie_, mm maybe restart x and see if it comes back [20:28] mikc: And still persist claiming that the lib doesn't exist? hmm... [20:28] coz_ i can try that [20:29] psycho_oreos: HP recovery [20:29] I can reformat a Seagate portable hard drive from its default file system to ext3 with gparted and it will work fine, right? [20:29] Yo yo yo [20:29] mikc: hmm.. not really sure what to try then.. can't say I've even heard of these kind of problems before [20:29] Andorin: yes [20:29] coz_: /etc/init.d/gdm start, or, Xorg -retro , or startx -- :1 all will fail bc of the messed up libs [20:29] question: is the plymouth problem with nvidia proprietary drivers solved? Is there a clear set of steps to follow? Thanks [20:29] Andorin: sure, it will sdestroy the data on the partition [20:29] Andorin: you'll loose their included tools though.. not that it's any loss but still [20:29] psycho_oreos: now i've 3 partitions on my hdd, two of them are for HP [20:29] Slart: so I should go for a reinstall... great. [20:29] Parsi, yeah assuming its software recovery, if there's issues there you can still I suppose somewhat rest it back to normal [20:29] * Andorin nods [20:30] !lucid | invernizzi [20:30] invernizzi: 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 - Await the release in #ubuntu-release-party [20:30] Invrnizzi: works fine here [20:30] mikc, try a sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade see if anything needs installed [20:30] Parsi, s/rest/reset [20:30] The drive came as ntfs and for some reason gparted has a problem reading it, so it can't partition the drive or anything. Not cool. [20:30] i am using the libvirt plugin and its great, just one problem i have more vm's than i do memory of cpu, is there a way to limit how many nodes hudson will bring up at once? [20:30] mikc: If you check for the files /usr/lib/libsigc-2.0.so.0 /usr/lib/libpciaccess.so.0 /usr/lib/libmagic.so.1 do they exist? [20:30] coz_: nothing more [20:31] is there a screencapturing/screencasting utility that will record video from a workspace that is not currently visible (i.e. from workspace 1 when I switch to workspace 2)? [20:31] Andorin, you could burn Dban and write zeros to that drive I bet it can be partitioned after that [20:31] mikc: well.. if I was having problems running basic software I would start considering which takes more time.. finding out what the problem is or just reinstalling =/ [20:31] Also, is it at all possible to partition a USB device, install the files necessary to run an Ubuntu live environment to one of the partitions, and boot from that? [20:31] Why there is no Jdownloader on Ubuntu add/remove ? [20:31] mikc, mmmm I am not sure then unless you know how to use aptitude to recover but I am not sure how to effectively do that [20:31] so I'm trying to figure something out, I have 2 ubuntu machines with pure-ftpd running through xinetd and using pam, I'm trying to auth a user found in the local passwd file, it works on one but not the other, both machines have the pam.d/pure-ftpd pointing at pam_ldap.so so I'm not sure how this is working at all [20:31] hey is it true that the new version will be released today? [20:31] Andorin: coz: or use dd if=/dev/zero ;) [20:31] arand: YES! and I can remove them with the package manager and put them back, and the errors are just _the same_ [20:31] Andorin: what kind of hard drive is it? [20:31] quarkup: ask in #ubuntu-release-party [20:31] coz_: I cant use aptitude it misses a lib [20:32] Andorin, you should be able to partition a flash drive yes [20:32] Slart: Seagate 500GB portable hard drive. [20:32] mikc, oh man [20:32] Andorin: odd that gparted doesn't see it.. [20:32] coz_: I know that USB media can be partitioned, but I wonder whether it's possible to boot a live environment from a partition. [20:32] Slart: gparted sees it, but it can't read it correctly and therefore can't really modify it (new partitions, etc). [20:32] Andorin, mm good question ... I would assume the bootable part of the drive should be seen first [20:32] mikc: That is indeed very strange... Well I don't have much more suggestions then... [20:32] Slart: thanks [20:32] Andorin: does. : dmesg | tail -n 20 ,show a kerennel reaction if you plug it out then in? [20:33] coz_: Andorin it is what I am currently dooing [20:33] mikc, is this a fresh install?? [20:33] Andorin: and does: sudo parted -l ,show the partition? [20:34] ActionParsnip: Yes to both questions. [20:34] I have an Asus EEE 1005HAH and when i cant seem to fix the isue with the multi touch synaptics pad [20:34] I'm trying to familiarize myself with the new upstart stuff. One problem I'm having is trying to debug some mysql stuff .. but using "start mysql" and such doesn't seem to log anything anywhere... any ideas? [20:34] coz_: a month, I use it once a week, and updated it yesterday [20:35] coz_: and today it does not work anymore [20:35] oh no Now i have no wireless network [20:35] Andorin: cool, then you can use sudo mk2fs.ext3 or whatever to format it in cli. [20:35] mikc, mm then I am puzzled...what you could do is visit the ##linux channel to see if anyone has better suggestions [20:35] ActionParsnip: Right, thanks. (After I'm done backing everything up.) [20:35] hello [20:36] does ubuntu server play nicely as a HyperV client? [20:36] i have a problem after a low level hard drive formating [20:36] If the filesystem was screwed up, the errors would appear in the dmesg [20:36] Why there is no Jdownloader on Ubuntu add/remove ? [20:36] kimi_21: perhaps noone has packaged it for ubuntu [20:36] Kimi_21: ask in #motu [20:36] hello people [20:36] hello [20:36] and reinstalling packages would help [20:37] #motu ? [20:37] Kimi_21: there may be a ppa [20:37] i'm using dnsmasq if i change listen-address=127.0.0.1 to listen-address=8.8.8.8 would it cache google public dns ? [20:37] !motu | kim_21 [20:37] kim_21: motu is short for Masters of the Universe. The brave souls who maintain the packages in the Universe section of Ubuntu. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU [20:38] psycho_oreos: now I have no wireless networks :( [20:38] Switchgirl: not sure but just add 8.8.8.8 to your dns list in network manager etc and you will use localhost first then cache the reply from the google dns. [20:38] does anybody know how to recognize a low level formatted partition on Ubuntu 9.10 ? [20:38] how many minutes to go for lucid??? [20:38] can you restart x and not loose my windows open? [20:38] funflo512, it should be picked up as a blank drive [20:38] djbeenie_: no [20:39] djbeenie_: no, not really. But if you really want to muck around, take a look at xpra [20:39] Pyk3d: about 24 hours worth and its discussed in #ubuntu+1 [20:39] funflo512, with which utility did you format this with? [20:39] funflo512: low level formatting? I didn't think that existed any more.. [20:39] i used [20:39] cron schedules absolutely, how do I relatively schedule jobs? Like every 2 minutes, instead of ever 4:20AM? [20:39] dd -if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda bs=G [20:39] Guest35290: cron does that... [20:39] !cron > Guest35290 [20:39] Guest35290, please see my private message [20:40] Guest35290: cron does that too [20:40] Guest35290: something like */7 * * * will run it every 7 minutes, all hours, all days and so on [20:40] funflo512, ok so you wrote zeros to the drive.... I prefer to use Dban which you hav [20:40] funflo512: Use fdisk to put a partition table on your drive [20:40] Guest35290: check man crontab for more examples [20:40] funflo512 which you have to burn to cd [20:40] Slart: man 5 crontab I guess [20:40] funflo512, much more effective in my opinion [20:40] Ok can anybody help me with my wireless network psycho_oreos was helping but he seems to be afk [20:40] funflo512, after which the drive should be recognized as a blank drive [20:40] dominicdinada: best to just ask the channel your actual question (on a single line) [20:40] System monitor and Conky shows that Ubuntu has available 1 GB space for swap.

[21:12] pure_hate, i can find it in media, so i tried sudo umount -f -a but i feel like that was a bad idea .. lol [21:12] What is the memory max that a netboot will allow with ubuntu i understand windows has impossed a 2gb limit but does this effect all other distros/ubuntu/os x installs? [21:12] mark1, so it would be like "sudo umount -f /media/1500" [21:13] man this is painful. i've installed ubuntu server under hyperV and it is so stinking slow. each console update repaints the whole screen line by line. it takes about 2 secs per screen! [21:13] dominicdinada, check the manufacturor, an ION motherbord can handle 4 gb, intel 2 gb [21:13] dominicdinada: is there a special memory limit just because you're booting off a network? [21:14] pure_hate, it says no such file or directory, i think there is a problem with me media file cause 2 of my hard drives show up in there but im pretty sure they arent mounted, it doesnt make sense [21:14] dog [21:14] oops [21:14] no I am looking into getting a new pc (mini) and wondered if ubuntu can handle 4gb or if since Microsoft impossed the restriction all makers had it [21:14] mark1, you are not giving me the complete file path and the name of the device so its pretty much impossible to give you the right commands [21:14] Sorry wrong channe; [21:14] pure_hate and they are both empty [21:15] pure_hate, sorry im new to linux trying to get used to everything, dont really always know what you're asking for [21:15] mark1, pastebin ls -la /media [21:16] pure_hate, apperently pastebin command is not found [21:16] im trying to transfer an iso file from my ubuntu desktop to my laptop through a wlan but its really slow using ssh:// with nautilus... is there a faster yet not hugely complex way to do this? [21:16] dominicdinada: you mean a netbook¿¿ are there any that uses a 64bits procesor¿ [21:16] mark1, I mean copy the output of "ls -la /media" to http://pastebin.com/ [21:16] dominicdinada: if we're talking about a regular desktop install 32bit systems handle 4Gb of memory.. minus some for hardware mapping etc.. 64bit handles more than you'll ever be able to get your hands on today =) [21:16] no a netbook mini Slart :P [21:17] Hi! everybody!

[21:25] g3wn, I upgraded from a karmic install, and it has worked so far, but that likely doesn't help you. [21:26] jbrouhard: nah...

[21:36] does ubuntu support official drivers of broadcom wlan minicard ( in dell laptop), i am presently using the propritory [21:37] frxstrem, the port would still have to be forwarded at the router/firewall so techniclly what it says is correct [21:37] usman: Yeah, I'm using the propiatary also, but it works fine [21:38] Wireless networking ( psycho_oreos ) was helping and we got somewhere but then someone else was helping and well I appricate it but the "help" was a mere suggestion to switch to wicd when the problem lies that something is hooking my power button on my laptop for the wireless network card [21:38] . === root is now known as Guest23086 [21:39] pure_hate: no, it isn't - first of all, I connected to my router (internally) with my iPod touch's VNC client and it worked, which indicates that it is actually forwarding the port, and secondly I used an online port checking tool which said that the port 5900 (VNC port) is opened and accessible from outside the network [21:39] That and I am going to need to find a program that flushes the entire systems cachef it because my disk space is always erroading away and I can never reclaim any o [21:40] frxstrem, Thats not possibel, if the port isnt forwarded at the router the NAT has now way of knowing whic pc to send the vnc connection to [21:40] can someone help me please, i have 2 harddrives in me /media folder, that think they are mounted but they are in fact not mounted, they are confused, how do i get rid of them ? === Sony is now known as Guest52289 [21:40] umount all [21:40] how can i see hard disk model and vendor???

My problem is that every time I try to download something form the Ubuntu Software Center, I get the following error: "The action would require the installation of packages from not authenticated sources." How do I fix this? [21:53] StephenWins: look at the udev rules [21:53] !udev [21:53] mark1: samba [21:53] !udev [21:53] StephenWins: what happens if you disconnect the drive and remove the folders it has created by hand.. use rmdir in a terminal.. [21:53] how do I get back to 4 workspace so I can use desktop cube? [21:53] Scunizi, thanks [21:53] I can't send pictures? [21:53] can a .sh script be added to rc.local?

Futhermore there could be a conflict between software packages which are not allowed to be installed at the same time.", but nothing will install [21:54] pure_hate : my friends are talking about it, i would like to give a try.

[21:55] Oo, ok lolol [21:55] Someone please help me with my networking, I am an experienced linux user but this wireless card simply does not want to behave :( [21:55] StephenWins: oh sorry man :) udev is the thing responsible for naming and mounting devices [21:55] StephenWins: in /etc/udev/rules.d you have text files with info on lots of hardware.. for example network names, which interface becomes eth0 and eth1 and so on [21:55] StephenWins: among other things [21:56] bastid_raZor, It tells me I need to use that or I could use bash example.sh [21:56] wraund: you might need to be more specific [21:56] #writers [21:56] oops [21:56] hi all! does anyone know the command line argument to guarantee firefox opens in a new window instead of a new tab? [21:56] ubuntu is having technical difficulties and says to join #ubuntu [21:56] ubuntu-offtopic [21:56] usser, it told me permission denied, how do I change my udev rules? [21:56] linxeh, well I plug the wireless card in, have all the correct network settings, and I know the router is okay because my other wireless devices run fine, but it simply will not connect :( [21:56] xomp: /path/to/bash /path/to/script ...would be the proper way to add it in rc.local [21:56] wcgary83, firefox --new-window [21:56] heh [21:56] Alcor: works for me.. and for about 200 other people [21:56] thanks oik!

[21:57] Alcor: might be something specific for the irc-server you're on [21:57] rmdir: failed to remove `/media/FreeAgent Drive': Permission denied [21:57] im on ubuntu server [21:57] sudo rmdir /media/Free...? [21:57] xomp: or add shebang as first line of the script is #!/bin/bash [21:58] linxeh, my humblest apologies xD I just restarted the laptop after having done all my work and it seems to be fine now, a reboot was all that was needed, sorry for wasting your time :$ [21:58] StephenWins: yep [21:58] <_pg_> anyone know of a good ssh/vnc guide for invalids like me? [21:58] wraund: no worries :) [21:58] StephenWins, make sure you unmount it first [21:58] Alcor: you're using holmes.freenode.net [London, UK] [21:58] pure_hate : its really good for sending short messages, instead of open the browser..etc..you know. [21:58] wraund: fwiw, I find that network manager breaks quite often, and restarting the daemon fixes things [21:58] alcor [21:59] alright, I unmounted a few, like drive and FreeAgent Drive (without the _ and ___ and ____) [21:59] Mepingo, If you only need to send mail just use sendmail on the command line [21:59] my firefox browser cannot display PDF files anymore! please help [21:59] how do you add more than one workspace to ubuntu? === Votan is now known as Votan|off [21:59] mkhanyisi: you will need to reinstall the PDF plugin [21:59] mkhanyisi, did you use Adobe Reader? [21:59] pure_hate : i will try that. [21:59] when I try to unmount them, oik, it says "umount: /media/FreeAgent Drive_ is not in the fstab (and you are not root)" [21:59] that's by right-clicking and then left-clicking "unmount" [22:00] mkhanyisi: Or ask in #firefox at irc.mozilla.org [22:00] sorry, I was offline. So, was there someone who owns a Creative Xmod wireless? [22:00] there's no reason for them to be busy [22:00] pure_hate: should i use sendmail with msmtp? im having problems with mutt not sending mails.. [22:00] there's 3 empty FreeAgent Drive_ and __ blah blah blah, they're like ghosts [22:01] StephenWins, sudo umount /media/...

[22:01] zoug, mutt is only a mail client you still have to have a MTA and stuff set up like sendmail or postfix [22:01] StephenWins, if all of those succeed, delete them [22:01] !isitout | Docteh [22:01] Docteh: nope.

[22:01] Slart: thx [22:02] melkor, try cheese [22:02] Apparently parted can't create ntfs file systems. Is there a partition manager that can? [22:02] does cheese do sound? [22:02] My problem is that every time I try to download anything form the Ubuntu Software Center, I get the following error: "The action would require the installation of packages from not authenticated sources." How do I fix this? [22:02] melkor, I don't remember, but it should [22:02] melkor: Not that I knwo of. [22:02] know of* [22:02] Alcor: freenode has several servers.. your irc-client is probably setup to pick one at random [22:02] has anyone tested the new nathive? [22:03] pure_hate: i use fetchmail, msmtp and openssl with mutt. it works while retrieving mail, but i cant send mail. google replies with a beautiful:The IP you're using to send mail is not authorized to 550-5.7.1 send email directly to our servers. Please use the SMTP relay at your 550-5.7.1 service provider instead [22:03] those who have fb? [22:03] Andorin, GParted can [22:03] Slart the network list says im on freenode [22:03] fb is facebook? [22:03] zoug, thats becasue whatever IP you are sending from does not have reverse DNS set up [22:03] yes [22:03] facebook [22:03] i do [22:03] Alcor: issue a /whois Alcor and it will tell you all kinds of info [22:03] mkhanyisi: Apparently it can't, as when I go to create a new partition, ntfs is grayed out under the filesystem options. [22:03] Alcor: yes.. and the freenode network consists of many servers [22:04] oik: when I try to do it using gksudo nautilus, when I right-click and unmount, just nothing happens, with all of them [22:04] and your name [22:04] ? [22:04] Slart the server says i was forwarded to another channel [22:04] nicolas rossini [22:04] ok [22:04] pure_hate: the problem is i dont want to send mail with a from add of "user@host" but with a from address of mygmail@gmail.com [22:04] spek spanish? [22:04] thx [22:04] and when I do sudo umount /media/Free... it just tries and tries and doesn't stop (on terminal) [22:04] nuccio, pvt for chatter [22:04] Alcor: here's a list of servers for the freenode network http://freenode.net/irc_servers.shtml [22:04] yo hablo español [22:04] I don't get an error message, or nothing [22:04] nicor_93: Why are you giving personal information out to a stranger?

[22:05] 10.4, is it some strange bug? [22:05] usser: i tried to change all the confs of mutt and msmtp but to no use. [22:05] Alcor: it might just be that the server you're on is doing something weird.. or it might be something else.. I could join the #ubuntu-offtopic channel without any problems though.. it might be a registration problem as well [22:05] !register | Alcor [22:05] Alcor: Information about registering your nickname: http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#userregistration - Type « /nick » to select your nickname. Registration help available in #freenode [22:05] StephenWins, shouldn't... try eject or safely remove [22:05] usser: how can i change it?

My Nokia mobile phone is not recognized as MP3 player in 9.10 and 10.04 anymore. In 9.04 everything went fine. Is there some sort of database where I can add my mobile? [22:05] pure_hate : how to un-install and re-install sendmail, i think something went bad during installation. [22:05] thx [22:06] StephenWins, if you open those folders, do you see the drive's FS? [22:06] do you have to use email when registering? [22:06] Andorin, I opened GParted version 0.4.5 it is ABLE to create an ntfs filesystem, I am not sure about parted [22:06] what's FS? there's no files in them [22:06] in any of them [22:06] berefeira: only if you want to be able to retrieve your password, I think [22:06] spanish [22:06] StephenWins, FS = File System [22:06] i tried to changed [22:06] ey [22:06] nothing in them [22:06] any [22:06] the confs [22:06] ah, thanks [22:06] StephenWins, okay... is the drive empty?

Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! [22:07] mkhanyisi: I don't know what you're doing, then, because I go to create an ntfs file system and ntfs is grayed out. [22:07] what happens is, when I have it plugged in for a few hours, listening to music, etc., it unmounts itself or something (by itself) and the I plug it back in [22:07] this is the first time that it's started doing this multiple folder thing though [22:08] sometimes I get really bad luck and my pc recognizes the external usb drive as a usb1, and not usb2, and I have to restart to fix it [22:08] Andorin: tried installing the ntfstools package? I think gparted wants that before it will touch ntfs partitions [22:08] someone who speaks Italian here?

I don't quite remember [22:08] Andorin, I just made a dry run, and GParted was ready, did you use the commandline parted of the GUI GParted? [22:08] pure_hate: wow, thanks that was what i wanted! and it also has TLS! [22:09] Andorin: ntfsprogs [22:09] Slart: ntfsprogs, perhaps? [22:09] Yeah.

[22:11] StephenWins, when the system things the removeable drive is still mounted while it is unplugged, next time you plug that removeable device again (while the system is still under that confusion), you will have another folder that differs from the first by a number and sometimes with an underscore at the end [22:11] when I'm away from my computer for a few minutes, my screen turns black and asks for me to login every time, how do I set up my Ubuntu to where I don't have to login every time? [22:11] StephenWins, thinks [22:11] wow, hanging in this channel is like a full time job :-) [22:12] StephenWins, that should be battery settings [22:12] mkhanyisi, yeah, it does an underscore === carlos is now known as car|0s [22:12] I think I looked there and didn't find anything, I'll try again [22:12] hour in spain 10.04?

[22:13] 00:00 not posible? === tek is now known as Teknical [22:13] sergi_: I don't think anyone actually knows.. come back tomorrow [22:14] StephenWins, ALT+F2 then type gnome-power-preferences [22:14] thanks [22:14] mkhanyisi, yeah, I don't see the "ask for password" or "go on standby" or any of that, it's not there [22:15] StephenWins, I thought you want to disable sleeping altogether [22:15] I have 3 tabs, but they're all about closing lid standby and stuff [22:15] yeah, all my settings are not sleep [22:15] I never let my pc sleep or shut down or restart [22:15] but for some reason [22:15] when I'm off the pc for like 5 minutes+ [22:15] it'll ask for my password when I move the mouse [22:16] StephenWins, under On Ac Power there is a "Display" section [22:16] put display to sleep when inactive for: never [22:16] display brightness : 100% [22:16] pure_hate: it seems that for anonymous messages you still need a smtp relay from the isp, right? its not possbile with dynamic ips i guess.. [22:16] StephenWins, Remember this has implication on your battery life [22:16] zoug, correct but there are free mail relays out there [22:17] what? [22:17] pure_hate: like? [22:17] StephenWins, I mean if your laptop does not sleep and is always 100% bright (esp On Battery) === ricardo is now known as leiria_bis [22:18] StephenWins, I dont think its a problem for On AC Power mode [22:18] hello [22:18] I'm nearly always always plugged in [22:18] Hi jorge [22:18] it's strange, but thanks, you tried your best. :p [22:18] does anyone here know how to change the ubuntu icon next to applications into the old gnome foot? [22:18] I wonder why I can't fix it :( === rainofkayos is now known as SolarisBoy [22:18] i am using the new ubuntu, lucid [22:19] jorge: try #ubuntu+1 [22:19] ok [22:19] jorge: not sure about new releases, but it used to be a particular picture in your theme, I think it was called 'start-here' [22:19] StephenWins: actually ... you're frustrated at logout timing or screen saving? [22:20] how can i get yahoo free mail working from thunderbird? [22:20] hi! i have 10.04 on an external usb hdd what i use in several computers. I would like if ubuntu could mount the partitions of the internal hdds automatically in a directory in /mnt named after the ntfslabel of the partition, or the partition ("sdb1") if it's not ntfs. i would like this to happen automatically, not only when triggered by nautilus. is there such a tool? [22:20] Plum: does Yahoo support pop or imap? [22:20] logout timing I guess [22:20] plum: you should be able to pull mail without an issue - but to push mail you will need something like Ypops! I have never gotten it working [22:21] Hello [22:21] Bodsda: yeah i just tried today, it didn't work for me either [22:21] ah, I think I know what you mean [22:21] let me take a look at screensaver pref [22:21] moreia: it's both but they want you to pay for push to anything other than webmail [22:21] plum: that was the reason I switched to gmail :) [22:21] moreia: I don't think the free accounts do either, they don't provide any server to access using a mail client, it has to be done through their web interface [22:21] which sucks btw. i hate their layout and stationary stuff [22:21] Bodsda: gmail doesn't have push either iirc [22:22] Does anyone have any recommendations on an RSS reader that I sync in between my PC, Laptop, and android phone? [22:22] plum: yes it does - I have it working like a charm [22:22] nice [22:22] well i use my yahoo and gmail for different purposes [22:22] I'm having trouble getting VGA projectors to work in ubuntu 9.10 can any1 help?? [22:22] stephenwins: I've got Gnome-do set up, so I don't know where to find it without that, but in Power Management Preferences I've got "Put computer to sleep when inactive for: Never" [22:22] so switching completely to one or the other wouldn't help me [22:22] Hmm, I'm not a big fan of google reader [22:23] thanks, I think I fixed it [22:23] stephenwins: I missed the earlier support thread -- sounded like someone was helping you, so I apologize if you already tweaked those settings.
