[00:27] my system is updated [00:27] idk [00:27] how do i check if im not beta [00:27] anymore [00:27] sam204475: you're trying to put the .iso on the flash drive to install?

In general, you can only delete (or preserve) entire partitions during an install... [00:28] ddrj: Just like when you have a seperate home partition. During the partition phase you go to manually specify what partitions are for what use, otherwise you will wipe the whole drive and lose everything. [00:28] JohnJohn101 yeah im using ~~ unetbooin ~ [00:28] melkor: some comments mention the .34 kernel [00:28] but now i cant put any files on there. nothing at all i know it has like 7.5G free but nothing will go on . === LeMoNiCe is now known as h32Lg [00:28] melkor: What is the link to the wiki? [00:28] I'm terrified here [00:28] I agree with Loshki [00:29] melkor: the .31-20 works fine but .31-21 doesn't [00:29] Twiple: Scared of what? [00:29] Twiple: terrified why? [00:29] andrew____: can u access the internet fine behind the proxy? [00:29] mickster04: Yes [00:29] Loshki & LinuxGuy2009: well guys, i wanted to preserve my / dir (800gigs of content) and wanted to wipe out my home [00:29] would that be possible? [00:29] ok [00:29] how do i check [00:29] which [00:29] mickster04: It looks like it's not wanting to use the proxy for package stuff by default [00:29] ddrj: I'd like you to pastebin the output of 'sudo fdisk -l' before we go further.... [00:29] When i look at windows doing these things i just see a poor camel with two fat mexicans on the back in the middle of the sahara. ~ bless. windows dont really have much of a chance does it. [00:30] bencc: then don't use .31-21, you'll probably see an update come out for it soon. [00:30] like [00:30] idk [00:30] ddrj: Why backup / most users files go to /home [00:30] andrew____: has yuo set system wide too? [00:30] when i update i have a bunch of new backgrounds [00:30] The VPN connection 'Test10 VPN' could not be exported to Test10 VPN (pptp).conf. [00:30] Error: unknown error. [00:30] and have a radiance theme [00:30] melkor: cool. thanks [00:30] aswell [00:30] mickster04: I has, but I'll try explicit not auto [00:30] sam204475: are you using windows? [00:30] Loshki: i'll pm u when i get home, because currently at work so i can't ssh :( [00:30] I would like to hook up a monitor to a GeForce 250 GTS via an HDMI -> VGA cable. Can anyone point me in the right direction? [00:30] johnjohn ubuntu 10.04CR [00:30] andrew____: thats the other option:D === `mOOse` is now known as m00se [00:30] bencc: since I use grub I can install a kernel and select the one I want at bootup if you are in the same position, then you could try the 2.6.33 kernel [00:30] ddrj: ok... [00:30] hello [00:31] mickster04: Nope <_< Same [00:31] superbob: what goes wrong? I just plug in the hdmi cable and it works. [00:31] superbob: Just get the correct cable and/or adapters. [00:31] sam204475: as a fat mexican, I don't appreciate the symbology... [00:31] which nvidia driver is shipped via hardware drivers? [00:31] Does anyone know the name of the ebook reader that came with Netbook Remix 9.10? It's missing from 10.04 and I want to get it [00:31] LinuxGuy2009: yeah i think when i first installed, i messed up on the partitioning... i did 800 gigs to / , 60 gigs to /home/ and 2 gigs to /swap/ [00:31] andrew____: have you tried turning it off and on again:D [00:31] if it is not lates, you should update it to latest [00:31] loshiki ~ heheh im sure you dont hence your using linux. [00:31] mickster04: What, really? :s [00:31] with default nvidia driver i had some extremely weird focus problems [00:31] melkor: I only want to use ubuntu :) I don't want to start messing with kernels [00:31] Did Jordan say he was coming back soon? [00:31] andrew____: not watched the IT crowd [00:31] ? [00:32] sam204475: are you using ubootin on windows for the rc .iso? [00:32] melkor, LinuxGuy2009 ... I have an HDMI -> VGA cable (from Card to monitor).... just plugging it in does nothing [00:32] mickster04: You could be used to Windows? :/ [00:32] why has ubuntu+1 gone invite only? [00:32] flash drive....? [00:32] would anyone recommend me running VMWare / Parallels on Ubuntu running Visual Studio in Wine / Codega? or is there a better solution with the Mono-Project? [00:32] superbob: system>preferences>monitors. [00:32] what? johnjohn? [00:32] ddrj: I personally have 2 SATA 500GB drives. drive 2 is all /home. Otherwise with a single drive I would set aside the majority of the space for /home. [00:32] andrew____: or try forcing and unexpected reboot, no im fine with linux/cnu:D but you never know [00:32] SOMEONE HELP [00:32] anyone know a good program i could use to remotely erase my computer if it gets stolen? [00:32] no im using it in ubuntu to upgrade to 10.04 [00:32] like mouse has focus on one window, keyboard on another, then suddenly none has focus, i have to alt+F4 everything, if i want to change focus, i have to right click on currently active window, then select other, but that doesnt work always [00:32] Alcor: maybe because 10.4 has just been released ? [00:33] sam204475: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/linux/create-a-bootable-ubuntu-usb-flash-drive-the-easy-way/ [00:33] ddrj: Keep in mind you can resize and move partitions but an fstab edit or two will be required for your partitions to be found. [00:33] melkor, i don't have a "monitors" ... i have a "display" [00:33] !UUID [00:33] To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell: « sudo blkid » (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID) [00:33] i updated to last driver from nvidia site and it works fine [00:33] I heard that the ipod touch is compatible iwth Lucid but it's not working on mine, is there anything I need to do to make it work? [00:33] karan: you're trying to get from the RC to the final? [00:33] mickster04: Ok sure, I'll reboot. [00:33] LinuxGuy2009: ahhhhhhhhhh, ty ty, i'll check up on the fstab edits then [00:33] superbob: I don't have a display...? [00:33] << im not using windows. im using ubuntu ~ [00:33] melkor, ... and when trying to use it I get the "RANDR extension is not present" [00:33] What the butt! [00:33] display? monitor? whats the differecne now adays? [00:33] superbob: odd maybe you could try installing xrandr? It sounds like a bug. [00:34] melkor, yeah, I have a System > Preferences > Display [00:34] The close button is on the left now! :( [00:34] pmp6nl: the conventional solution to that issue is to encrypt any valuable data so no-one can read it if it gets stolen... [00:34] sam204475: let me check to see what to do for linux. i've never done it from that [00:34] and theunetbootin isnt the problem, its the Flash Drive thats the problem. its telling me there is no space when i know there is about 7.5G on there. how can i format a drive... [00:34] Spice`: you can change that [00:34] melkor, i'm using nvidia drivers... does that make a difference with randr? [00:34] !controls | Spice` [00:34] Spice`: In Lucid, the minimize, maximize, and close buttons have been moved to the left side. For more information, please see http://alturl.com/b6ja | To move them back to the right-hand side, see http://alturl.com/x5d6 [00:34] mickster04: Yeah, probably. Haven't looked around at config stuff yet. Just rebooted. [00:34] I just downloaded 10.4 LTS server x64 alternate... and pretty sure I'm encountering bug #542210 (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/lucid/+source/partman-md/+bug/542210). Does anyone know of a workaround? [00:34] johnjohn101 ~ i dunno if it can be but i have the UNET bootin software in ubuntu..... [00:34] it works fine [00:34] Loshki I suppose that would work. I could encrypt my home folder, but than I cant access it in windows... when I have to use it [00:34] my system is up to date im using ubuntu beta and i wanna know how to get to final or if i am already using final [00:35] superbob: It should be handled by the nvidia, maybe there is another option under preferences. Also #nvidia handles the linux/proprietary nvidia stuff. [00:35] Spice: Simple gconf editor will fix you up if you want it back. I dint like it when i first tried it but now I prefer it actually. [00:35] RAID1/RAID10 with free space is present, says it cannot create /boot [00:35] does anyone know how to fix sound issues with pulseaudio under lucid? [00:35] karan. u can just do and update or a fresh install... [00:35] sam204475: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=112367 [00:35] superbob: the restricted nvidia driver doesnt support xrandr, you need to use the nvidia tool [00:35] ah. i will try that channel. thanks :) [00:35] thanks johnjohn101.

[00:51] melkor: apparently running 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure console-setup', should solve the issue (http://communities.vmware.com/message/1508704#1508704), my problem is: now how do I boot without X ... [00:51] melkor, I was not sure about x86_64 but it should be 64. Thanks === pure_hate is now known as semi_hate [00:52] kjele, when holding shift it just says "loading grub" then back to a blank screen with a blinking cursor [00:52] sender: so your keyboard works now? === semi_hate is now known as quarter_hate [00:52] Good job on 10.04 guys, I'm loving it! [00:52] does skype work on 10.04 x86_64 without dirty hacks? [00:53] Hey guys. [00:53] or should i stick to x86 [00:53] sender: any solutions I could think of involve grub...I think there are boot parameters that let you not boot to gnome [00:53] jeeesus. the ubuntu restricteds are taking forever to download [00:53] Soul_Sample: pulseaudio is very buggy. You can remove it entirely if you like: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/fix-for-all-pulseaudio-related-issues.html [00:53] * SlipperyChicken loves dirty hacks. [00:53] people must really be going crazy atm [00:53] SlipperyChicken, :-) [00:53] So, how does everyone like the new LTS? [00:53] !hi | Ste4lth [00:53] Ste4lth: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines . Enjoy your stay! [00:53] hello [00:53] SlipperyChicken: dirty hacks that WORK [00:53] melkor: no, well I got into GRUB now, (dont ask me I've tried hitting shift a mil times) should I boot recovery mode? [00:53] Ste4lth: compiz worked out of the box. [00:53] honestly i don't need grub at all, i'm not dual-booting on the netbook [00:53] i have a bit of a concern about ubuntu [00:53] Loshki: that was my original idea, but i remembered that i couldn't enable individual volume controls for all applications [00:53] I tried to use 10.04 and it didn't work at all... [00:54] i just did a standard install and told it to use the entire HDD [00:54] so I just updated and X11 won't start, seems to be an fglrx issue, how do I remove it completely? [00:54] sender: recovery mode should give you the option to boot to a cmd prmpt w/out x/gdm [00:54] kudkillioughta: You might try to use the live cd to install grub again or just try another reinstall of ubuntu. Try do not skip any configuration when it ask you to. [00:54] Soul_Sample: that's true. Pick your poison, I guess.... [00:54] you need grub for different kernel versions too .. not only 2 x OS [00:54] Loshki: windows! :P [00:54] Like, on launch of LCD, it decided to screw up and launch 50+ file managers. [00:54] melkor: awesome, trying right now [00:54] * SlipperyChicken 's life is a GIANT FILTHY hack, [00:54] Loshki: i did all this, i'll go and restart to see what i've accomplished [00:54] kjele, i'll try that again, but i've already installed twice [00:54] i want to install 10.04 in dual boot with win7, but the last time i did that, my grub died, and then my harddisk developed bad sectors. (im not sure if this was caused by a fall or ubuntu) [00:55] should i install ubuntu? [00:55] oh right, they seem do distribute an x86_64 edition: http://www.skype.com/go/getskype-linux-beta-ubuntu-64 [00:55] i really want to [00:55] Howdy. I've got a Dell 1501 Inspiron. Getting a screen full of vertical stripes on boot from a known good CD. DVD drive is working. Would appreciate some help. [00:55] sakekasi, no don't. you're turn into a bear. [00:55] kudkillioughta: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows [00:55] Wow, this is hard to follow lol. [00:55] you'll [00:55] slipperychicken huh?

I can start it manually. But when i add it to startup programs, both "netbook-launcher" and "/usr/bin/netbook-launcher" it doesnt start whe ni login, what should i do? [00:55] kudkillioughta: do you have keyboard on login screen problems? [00:55] sakekasi: ubuntu may do many things, but it doesn't cause bad sectors. Hard drives develop bad sectors all by themselves without any help from operating systems.... [00:56] no problems on the liveusb, but when it says it's done installing i can't get it to load anything after the bios splash [00:56] Loshki ok thanx [00:56] sakekasi: It is just a coincidence, Grub nor Ubuntu will hurt your hard drive ! [00:56] like anything at all, just blank screen with cursor blinking [00:56] DarkMasterHalo my grub was killed by win7 multiple times tho [00:56] sakekasi, people don't like bears. they eat our garbage and run around our college campus. [00:56] SlipperyChicken: please stay on topic... [00:56] kudkillioughta: ok, dont know about that, good luck [00:57] I'm trying to install something on lucid, and I'm getting in the bytes per second download range [00:57] WTF [00:57] that happening to everyone? [00:57] DarkMasterHalo is there any proof that i can show my parents that ubuntu doesnt cause the bad sectors so that i can install it? [00:57] tehbone: Have you tried going into Software Sources and finding a mirror for the software repository that is closest to you? [00:57] melkor: is this for real? running recovery mode gives you root access without a password? Is this a bug? [00:57] I live in the US not on mars... === quarter_hate is now known as marty_B [00:57] but I'll see [00:58] sakekasi: That is because Windows sometimes, with updates or reinstall, overwrite to Master boot Record of your hard drive, that is why we always install Linux after Windows :P === marty_B is now known as fartin_martin [00:58] Hi, is there an updated version of https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently ? [00:58] DarkMasterHali i did [00:58] DarkMasterHalo i did [00:58] Problems with the automated install inside VMware Player? I can't seem to get the guest OS to take keyboard control at the login prompt?! [00:58] Hello! Has anyone used the new dell latitude e6510 with ubuntu? [00:58] sakekasi: you have bigger problems than that. If your drive is reporting bad sectors, it may be about to fail. Make sure you have backups of anything indispensible, and consider running SMART tools. You may soon be in the market for a new hard drive... [00:58] but DarkMasterHalo it still killed my grub MULTIPLE TIMES [00:58] tehbone: It is a release day. If you're trying to download from the main archive, that might be why you're having slow speeds. Try somewhere closer to you geographically. [00:58] hi! ubuntu 10.4, i have installed netbook-launcher-package. I can start it manually. But when i add it to startup programs, both "netbook-launcher" and "/usr/bin/netbook-launcher" it doesnt start whe ni login, what should i do? [00:59] hey can someone tell me the command to update to lucid lynx [00:59] switched from US to main server, we'll see how this works [00:59] hey guys [00:59] hey can someone tell me the command to update to lucid lynx??? [00:59] I have problems with 10.04 and netbook [00:59] gaysquirrel, try Alt+F2 then enter update-manager -d in the box [00:59] gaysquirrel: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade isn't it? [00:59] sudo apt-get dist upgrade? [00:59] sakekasi: How do you know that windows killed the grub and that it wasn't a bad sector on the grub? [00:59] I want to scroll down in System->Preferences but it goes back to start position [00:59] 4.5KBps I'm rolling! [01:00] sakekasi: Well, I've seen one Windows updates and several Service Pack causing this issue. Maybe your hard drive is starting to fail. It is hard to say. [01:00] gaysquirrel: if you can, may rather do a full-install, or back yourself up before upgrading === sipherdee_ is now known as authentify [01:00] Took me 3.5 hours to download the i386-desktop torrent on a 25Mbit connection. [01:00] biggerfisch the first time i ran windows after reinstalling grub, it always killed grub === FunkySayu is now known as Glouglou [01:00] eh idk [01:00] Typos_King, agreed ! [01:00] Howdy. I've got a Dell 1501 Inspiron. Getting a screen full of vertical stripes on boot from a known good 10.04 CD. DVD drive is working. Would appreciate some help. [01:00] sakekasi: What are you defining as "killing" grub? [01:00] whats that command that if someone tells u to do it u shouldnt cuz itll mess your whole system up [01:00] gaysquirrel: start here: http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/lucid/beta1 [01:00] Wolf: Should not need for the -d anymore [01:01] biggerfisch after my bios loaded it said that grub died [01:01] can some one reallt help me!!! [01:01] i cant even type my pass into new ubuntu login [01:01] lame [01:01] remove files, recursively, forced, starting at root rm -rf / [01:01] !ask | zerocool [01:01] zerocool: 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. :-) [01:01] there goes all my files [01:01] thanks alot ubuntu === Glouglou is now known as kevin64_ [01:01] my pc freezes on Ubuntu 9.10 and 10.04 === kevin64_ is now known as FunkySayu [01:01] brah: I have the same problem. It doesn't seem like it will take keyboard control. [01:01] brah-: same here [01:02] Can someone help me fix the low resolution Plymouth boot screen with my ATI Mobility Radeon driver? [01:02] somehow the update-manager is not detecting the new release [01:02] hello [01:02] gaysquirrel: no shortage of deadly commands. Anything with rm in it is suspect... [01:02] Hey... Ubuntu website shows a problem here: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading , step 6 of 9.10 to 10.4 shows a image with Beta Lucid [01:02] brah-: I am trying this now: http://communities.vmware.com/message/1508704#1508704 === authentify is now known as sipherdee_ [01:02] zerocool, cool nick bro [01:02] sqr47: you'll have to get into the grub settings for that... i'm not sure if you wanna be touching that [01:02] nsahoo: what version are you running? is everything up to date? [01:02] Newbie here, can anyone help me install wubi? It's saying there is no CD on the disk? [01:02] so - my video keeps flashing (it's like it's trying to change resolution, but changing to the same resolution) after coming back from display sleep mode until i reboot [01:02] any ideas? intel 915 [01:03] waltercool: Try change mirror [01:03] FiReSTaRT: are there any other ways to fix it? i wouldnt think going grub would do anything [01:03] sakekasi: Well, like DarkMasterHalo said, there are quite a few possible reasons for this. To me, it sounds like your hard drive is failing, but thats just my opinion [01:03] hunahpu: running 9.10 here. it's showing everything upto date. but, no upgrade [01:03] sqr47: you sure? hang on a sec and i'll give you the instructions for the fix [01:03] biggerfisch i got a new hd [01:03] nsahoo: are you using a wubi installation? [01:04] holy rubbish 477 bytes per second? [01:04] nsahoo: if you have extra repos installed, try disabling them; and try to upgrade via command line with "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" [01:04] kjele, still there? [01:04] hunahpu: i also tried selecting a different server, by clicking select best server in software sources, it says no suitable server found check your connection. connection is of course working otherwise won't be chattin on irc [01:04] kudkillioughta: Yes [01:04] sqr47: what is wubi [01:04] any aptitude command equal to "apt-get -t" ? [01:05] sakekasi: I know of no way that any program can cause bad sectors, except if you repeatably crash your computer [01:05] i got into grub and had it boot in recovery mode, found where it's hanging [01:05] nsahoo: nevermind then [01:05] ata4: DUMMY is the last printout it has [01:05] i think thats what win7 did to mah grub or something [01:05] sakekasi: sudo apt-get install smartmontools; S.M.A.R.T. is a OS-independent feature implement on most/all new HDs, the tools get information already found and provided by the HD, usually when it finds a bad cluster/sector, automatically marks [01:06] sender: How do I pull up the on-screen keyboard? [01:06] sqr47: :) [01:06] some one !!!! PLEASE HELP! My Intel GPU is crashing my ubuntu [01:06] i upgraded my office computer, it was smooth [01:06] sqr47: 1) open terminal and gksudo gedit /etc/default/grub in it you will find a line #GRUB_GFXMODE=640×480.. uncomment it and change it to your native resolution.. save and close [01:06] can't do it at home [01:06] kudkillioughta: So you have a kernel to boot into? [01:06] zerocool: which driver set are you using? [01:06] Typos_King cool [01:06] sudo apt-get install fglrx fglrx-amdcccle fglrx-dev fglrx-modaliases [01:06] does anyone else have problem with user switch [01:06] Did 10.04 get the dual-boot and the keyboard things fixed? [01:07] yes [01:07] FiReSTaRT: will that also fix the part of plymouth only showing up for like two seconds? [01:07] !virtualbox [01:07] virtualbox is a x86 !virtualizer. A !free edition is available from the package 'virtualbox-ose'. A non-free edition is available at http://virtualbox.org for most Ubuntu releases (help in #vbox) - Setup details at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox [01:07] Keyboard problem on 10.04 Gnome login screen solution: http://communities.vmware.com/message/1508704#1508704 [01:07] sender: How do I pull up the on-screen keyboard? [01:07] sqr47: 2) gksudo gedit /etc/grub.d/00_header find the part that says gfxmode=${GRUB_GFXMODE} i think it's line 103 and under that line add a new line that says set gfxpayload=keep save and close [01:07] sqr47: 3) in terminal paste sudo update-grub [01:07] sakekasi: however the rule-of-thumb is, the HD will continue to deteriorate, and more sectors will spring up, thus is a good idea to back things and up shop around for a replacement [01:08] s/sectors/bad &/ [01:08] sender: So we should basically not use Easy Install to do the install for 10.04? [01:08] Typos_King i already replased hy harddrive [01:08] Champage, you reboot, press shift, you get the GRUB menu, select 'recovery mode', select 'root console', now you can run the command [01:08] sqr47: that should fix it.. plymuth isn't working in native resolution when running on nvidia drivers so some crazy serb posted up the instructions... i just followed them and it worked :) [01:08] OK, thanks [01:08] sqr47: didn't really get into the internals to know what does what [01:08] hey guys can anyone help me please with scrolling problem [01:08] Typos_king what shud i execute when i m done installing the smartmontools [01:08] e1hn4nd3r: I upgraded from an existing install that was done with easy install, so I am not 100% positive on that [01:08] FiReSTaRT: thanks [01:09] i found a easier way to fix the problem [01:09] sqr47: np and good luck [01:09] just use onscreen keyboard [01:09] FiReSTaRT: i think that does still not work. plymouth is somehow broken. I am forced to use my console at the highest possible resolution, my CRT can display ./( [01:09] kjele, seems as though it's some kind of error with mounting my hdd...think i should just do a full reformat and try reinstalling? [01:09] kudkillioughta: Kinda strange. Could be that your live usb is broken too [01:09] sakekasi: just do a 'smart' to autocomplete, I think is smartmon :) [01:09] i've tried to upgrade to lucid from jaunty on 2 different machines now and I keep getting 'the package ubuntu-desktop is marked for removal but it is in the removal blacklist' [01:09] ill try, though i might be better off just keeping the driver uninstalled, everything works still but for some reason the system says that it's uninstalled, is this a bad thing? [01:09] sender: Will try to confirm with a non-Easy Install installation on my VMWare installation here at work. [01:09] hmw: dunno.. worked for many of us with nvidia graphics running the proprietary driver.. not sure about the rest [01:09] kjele, can i just add all of the netbook remix things after an install? [01:10] e1hn4nd3r: ok [01:10] kudkillioughta: Yes [01:10] is anyone noticing the little black bar in firefox 10.04 between the tab and the website? [01:10] FiReSTaRT: oh, sorry, i thought your talk was about intel [01:10] i'm just going to go with a standard install and add them after the fact then [01:10] sakekasi: gsmartcontrol is a great gui for smartmontools: http://gsmartcontrol.berlios.de/home/index.php/en/About [01:10] FiReSTaRT: did that make any sense? me: "ill try, though i might be better off just keeping the driver uninstalled, everything works still but for some reason the system says that it's uninstalled, is this a bad thing?" [01:10] i'm having terrible luck with trying to install from an .iso on a liveusb [01:10] FyreFoX: you can not upgrade directly from jaunty to lucid [01:10] can anyone help me? [01:10] so guys... is it normal for the new ubuntu to take 1 1/2 hours to install? [01:10] hmw and sqr47: another nice tip for you guys if you wanna move the buttons back to the right side of the window is to download this script http://go2.wordpress.com/?id=725X1342&site=maletaski.wordpress.com&url=http%3A%2F%2Fpastebin.com%2Fh1QnxBd1&sref=http%3A%2F%2Fmaletaski.wordpress.com%2F make it executable and run it... worked for me :) [01:10] kudkillioughta: what's the problem? [01:10] smartmontools is GUI, latest version for that matter [01:11] Is it legal for other distros to use the term (Lucid) ? [01:11] dios_mio: it depends on the computer. [01:11] FiReSTaRT: does it explayin, how to get back the icon on the top left, too? [01:11] how can i disable shift and ctrl in gnome? i cant play games normally because inputs gets awkward whilke hodling mod keys [01:11] anyone having trouble with gwibber and updating twitter? [01:11] dios_mio: it takes my computers a while to install [01:11] sqr47: it does make sense.. if you dont need fancy desktop effects or 3d acceleration, you should be perfectly fine using the open driver [01:11] reportingsjr, can i like change my apt server to get a faster one? [01:11] zanpakuto: hrm.. oh wrong name, I mean karmic 9.10 [01:11] hmw: nope but i never used that one so no great loss for me :) [01:11] Guys im trying to get ubuntu 10.4 to work with broadcom wirless but i cant enable the hardware drivers [01:12] dios_mio : under system>admin>software sources, [01:12] FiReSTaRT: i miss the icons, that always have been in the top left corner. i never know, which browser i am in now [01:12] Typos_King: are you sure about smartmontools being a gui? I don't see it.... [01:12] zvacet: hrm.. oh wrong name, I mean karmic 9.10 [01:12] I recently broke Ubuntu and I'm using the live CD to backup my home folder. How can I restore this? [01:12] hmw: i just keep my preferred browser open and only run others for compatibility :) [01:12] hmw, i've tried 3 times to install the 10.04 netbook remix onto my acer aspire one, every time my netbook says it installed successfully and just hangs after install [01:12] FiReSTaRT: well NO driver is installed, but EVERYTHING works fine, even 3d and everything, im assuming it's installed but the system just doesn't recognize it, that's why plymouth goes to the nice fancy screen and it tells me that i need to activate the driver when i open up "Device Drivers" [01:12] still no luck with the upgrade to 10.4 [01:13] FyreFoX : well,that is something different === rdw_ is now known as rdewit [01:13] sqr47: hmm you were having plymuth issues without installing the proprietary driver? [01:13] im having issues with movie playback, gstreamer probably, totem doesnt want to play any movies complaining avout lack of codecs, be it divx, x254, on6 whatever [01:13] reportingsjr, so say bro.. how do i kill this nvidia driver uploader? cant find it in ps [01:13] i tried updateing and it says an apt-get process is running how do i kill it [01:13] sqr47: in that case i hope you didn't follow my instructions (probably nothing bad will happen but still) b/c you have another issue [01:13] sakekasi: Typos_King: ah, sudo apt-get install gsmartcontrol [01:13] reportingsjr, nvidia driver downloader, sorry [01:13] zvacet: could it be because I run xfce rather than gnome? [01:13] Loshki: yes, it comes with gsmarcontrols package in the install, I ran smartmon I think and it loaded a GUI [01:13] Loshki [01:13] yes [01:14] FiReSTaRT: no, i didnt follow them, but i wasnt having any issues besides the graphics driver being confused, i mostly just came in here to find out if that was a bad thing [01:14] Loshki: it came with it automatically :| [01:14] i tried updateing and it says an apt-get process is running how do i kill it [01:14] kudkillioughta: can you still switch to the console after the "hang up" (CTRL-ALT-F1) ? [01:14] Typos_King: very good, I last tried in 8.04 and it wasn't bundled... [01:14] FyreFoX : do you run just xfce or you have gnome too [01:14] sqr47: they basically offer you the option of using a proprietary driver.. you don't have to if you dont wanna run compiz or play 3d games or use google earth [01:14] i tried updateing and it says an apt-get process is running how do i kill it [01:14] zvacet: I have both [01:15] hmw, no [01:15] sqr47: unfortunately i need all 3 and also wanna see if the nvidia 195 finally got hdmi sound working on 8400 [01:15] Is there any reason the 64bit version of 10.04 isn't shouwing on the download page? I presume it's not ready? [01:15] gaysquirrel: that's a tought one, but I usually resort to rebooting. You might try looking for dpkg or apt-get or something in "ps" and then "kill" the process by number? [01:15] FyreFoX : try with sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop [01:15] I've got these two packages that never go away in the update screen. I'm on hardy, and they packages are cinelerracv-gl and libcinelerra. I don't see them in the installed software list, nor can I get rid of either one of them in the command line with apt-get remove [01:15] Loshki: actually, I just checked, I don't see it in the download, :|, anyhow, yes, get also then gsmartcontrols :) [01:15] gaysquirrel: open a terminal and run ps ax | egrep apt Do you see a process running? [01:15] FiReSTaRT: i can do all those things, but i need to leave, "A malicious client is monitoring your session" [01:15] kudkillioughta: does it hang after install or after reboot-after-install? [01:15] Champagne, ok ill try a reboot [01:15] hello i went to download my video drivers on the live cd and they finished in like 30 seconds, doing it on a real install of ubuntu and they are taking ages? why?? [01:15] hmw, i can get to grub and it goes as far as running /scripts/local-top and then hangs [01:15] gaysquirrel: try ps ax | egrep apt first [01:15] Do the Loshki thing first [01:16] FiReSTaRT: im assuming that's a bad thing, i need to change my password now [01:16] adios [01:16] hmw, hangs after reboot-after-install [01:16] sender: your VMware fix worked like a charm! [01:16] holy... === coolcat_ is now known as Guest91823 [01:16] zvacet: nothing to be done, its installed already [01:16] Will my Acer Aspire One Webcam work with Ubuntu 10.04? Will it work for Ustream? [01:16] Hi, Can anyone help me with Wibu? It's not installing. It says no disk insert disk pls [01:16] My netbooks webcam. [01:17] Champage: glad to hear! (but I just found the fix) [01:17] I am trying to install Ubuntu/Lucid beside Mac OS X on a MacBook Pro (5,3), but the installer does not let me choose any partition besides the EFI or HFS+ (or entire disk) as the target for the bootloader. Karmic had no problem when letting it "use the largest contiguous free space." Is it safe to put on the disk, or on the EFI partition? [01:17] hello i went to download my video drivers on the live cd and they finished in like 30 seconds, doing it on a real install of ubuntu and they are taking ages? why?? [01:17] Will 10.04 "fix" my WiFi problems on a Dell E1705? I'm dreaming, I know it. [01:17] kudkillioughta: hmm... i am sorry, i have no clue either. [01:17] Champagne: try a live cd [01:18] im having issues with movie playback on 10.04, gstreamer probably, totem doesnt want to play any movies complaining avout lack of codecs, be it divx, x254, on6... whatever totem doesnt find decoders for video streams [01:18] Downloading Ubuntu 10.04....11 mins to go!! [01:18] Ergo^: perhaps you try sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras [01:18] hmw, i have that installed [01:18] Ergo^: try this: http://www.unixmen.com/linux-tutorials/937-things-to-do-after-installing-ubuntu-1004-lts-lucid-lynx [01:18] How can I see what serivices are available to my pc that is bound to a blue tooth device? [01:19] sender: in regards to the root access w/out a password. I usually get a paswd prompt. But you could always us a live cd and access it w/out a passwd too. [01:19] anyone having trouble with gwibber and updating twitter? [01:19] FyreFoX : you can remove it until you finish upgrade and then install it again I´m looking how to do that [01:19] i have all gstreamer packes, good, bad , ugly etc. [01:19] TnEt: congrats i have 11 hours [01:19] Guys im trying to get ubuntu 10.4 to work with broadcom wirless but i cant enable the hardware drivers [01:19] sender: if you need to protect your data, use encryption. [01:19] melkor: that's quite shocking.. not sth for a linux distro [01:19] chrometiger: can you find an alternative mirror? [01:19] chrometiger: How is it so far? [01:20] hmw, I know, but it seems that even windows is better protected ... [01:20] chrometiger, use torrent! [01:20] how come everytime i move sound up and down i get this white flickr behind it ? [01:20] Loshki: i've already started it through update manager, im too far in now [01:20] Brando753: try "sudo apt-get update" to update the list [01:20] sender: that's quite not so shocking, its how it ought to be. i can access windows, too, if it isnt encryped, from any live cd. [01:20] sender: I can do the same think with windows. Use a livecd and access the files. [01:20] kjele: i dont have any internet wifi and wired wont connect [01:20] physical access = boned security [01:20] sender: TrueCrypt. Learn it, live it, love it! [01:20] chrometiger: yes, risky to interrupt an upgrade.... [01:20] FyreFoX: here http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/purexfce [01:21] (unless it's encrypted, of course) [01:21] hmw, melkor, true, but a reboot and direct root access is even more convenient.. [01:21] Champagne: thanks, I'll look into it. [01:21] sender: like I said I get a passwd when I do it. [01:21] melkor, hmw, well I guess you can set a pwd for root and this hole is plugged. [01:21] Brando753: Then you are in a tough situation. Since you need the net to install the drivers [01:21] sender: See it this way: this is only reminding you, that you forgot to use encryption. [01:22] zvacet: k thanks [01:22] sender: its funny because they always say 'dont set a root passwd' [01:22] Is there any way to switch back to usermode display drivers in Ubuntu 10.04? I'm really not comfortable with kernel mode, especially since the only reason it was implemented was to get rid of a few screen flashes during boot. [01:22] Only downside is it doesn't seem to support ext3 or anything other than NTFS inside encrypted volumes. Means to linux permissions, and you have to be root to mount volumes easily. [01:22] melkor, who is that? ubuntu ppl? [01:22] melkor: i'll check, if it helps (i have a root pwd) brb [01:22] FyreFoX: yw :) [01:22] sender: this channel [01:22] melkor: ok :) [01:22] melkor: why would that be [01:22] sender, melkor the policy is to not have a password or shell attached to the root account [01:23] sender: they want to discourage ruining your system. [01:23] why does it take sooo long to change the password :/ [01:23] sender, to discourage running and logging in as root [01:23] acicula: and use sudo instead [01:23] sender, indeed [01:23] melkor: without a password on root, I think you need to use sudo for everything or else "switch to" root by typing sudo su - [01:23] Is there any reason the 64bit version of 10.04 isn't shouwing on the download page? I presume it's not ready? [01:24] acicula: kinda twisted... maybe running as root should be made harder, but there should be some protection on root anyway. [01:24] so anyone here can confirm if divx can be played normally or not in 10.04 ? [01:24] join #casanueva [01:24] sender, there is, you have to make modification to login as root [01:24] <^paradox^> ok just one more quick question before upgrading to ubuntu 10.04. i have kernel 2.6.24-27 and didnt wanna screw around with the grub so i was just gonna stick to ext3 files system. i was told this wouldnt be a problem? [01:25] acicula: you mean running in recovery mode? [01:25] sender: It's a bad idea to run as root. You should do it if you're doing some system configuration or you understand exactly why you need to run as root [01:25] I downloaded the ubuntu-10.04-alternate-amd64.iso, doesn't this allow me to pick and choose what I want to install? [01:25] Installed 10.04LTS RC 18hrs ago, no updates after release! nice. [01:25] soreau: I know, sudo is way better for a lot of situations [01:25] acicula: , sender logged in as root just by rebooting in safe mode. === h93 is now known as hmw [01:25] ^paradox^: Assuming you do not upgrade to ext4 then it is ok [01:25] sender: running user applications as root is a bad idea for several reasons aside from security risks [01:25] greezmunkey: to be sure you want to fire two commands from the command interface: sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get upgrade [01:25] Ergo^: my avis play fine using mplayer.... [01:26] sender: read http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/lucid/man8/sudo_root.8.html [01:26] soreau: I'm just shocked that anybody with this knowledge can boot my system, enter recovery mode and get a root prompt without anyfor of authentication [01:26] sender: melkor: setting a root password results in a prompt in recovery mode. But that is still almost "no-security" unless you use encryption. [01:26] soreau: I am aware of that [01:26] melkor, yeah in rescue mode its possible [01:26] <^paradox^> kjele: what about the kernel version? i assume thats about the latest kernel i can get in 8.04 lts? [01:26] Loshki, what about totem ? [01:26] sender, well thats why you have encryption [01:26] hmw: well, it's not easy to crack that password is it? [01:26] i can play with VLC too [01:27] sender, setting a root password will not keep an attacker with physical access out [01:27] sender: i put in a live cd or my usb thumb drive and have full access without a password at all [01:27] sender : your comp is not safe if somebody else have access to it not just linux issue [01:27] acicula: encryption is the ultimate step, true. but there is a lot in between [01:27] sender: Loading now. Will get you confirmation shortly. [01:27] you can get around the ubuntu keyboard vmware issue by selecting the virtual keyboard at the bottom and just clickin in ur pass [01:27] ^paradox^: You will get a new kernel. As long you do not remove the old one you will have that too [01:27] sender: You can disable recovery mode prompt if you understand how to edit your kernel entry at boot loader time [01:27] e1hn4nd3r: interesting [01:27] Can anybody help me install WUBI? It says there is no disk? [01:27] zvacet: I strongly agree. Don't believe me? Download "ultimate boot cd" or some other BartPE discs and then "attack" your Windoze installation just as easily. [01:28] Champagne: All good here :) [01:28] ! wubi | silipcantot [01:28] silipcantot: Wubi is an Ubuntu installer for Windows users that allows you to install and uninstall Ubuntu like a Windows application, in a simple and safe way. http://wubi-installer.org/support.php and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WubiGuide for troubleshooting. Please file bugs at http://launchpad.net/wubi/+filebug. [01:28] anyone know if the ubuntu-10.04-alternate-amd64.iso, allows you to pick and choose what you want to install? [01:28] silipcantot: i don't know Wubi. Did you ask Google? [01:28] sender, are you trying to secure a box so that a physical attacker cant root it? [01:28] Ergo^: totem searched for gstreamer plugins, I let it install them, and then it played. I much prefer mplayer though... [01:28] Xgates: no [01:28] hey melkor, ahh I thought before you said it did? [01:29] Xgates: it gives you some options but it doesn't let you select specific packages [01:29] I don't have to do anything besides update from the 2nd beta right? [01:29] acicula: entering GRUB and getting root without password is so much easier than booting from a disk (e.g. my laptop has not drive) or a thumb [01:29] How can I see what ports are in use on the command line? [01:29] Xgates: is there something specific you want to avoid installing? [01:29] it isn't giving me any options different then the regular install [01:29] Ok I just went to Karmic from Jaunty and SCIM doesn't work anymore [01:29] oh man. this is hopeless.... [01:29] <^paradox^> kjele: i was just looking at the release notes and it mentioned something or about 2.6.28 and later kernels, but im guessing those are 9.04, 9.10 and higher [01:29] why do i get white flickering bars behind the volume display when i go to decrease or increase volume [01:29] Champagne: there is no 100% security even if you are only user and if somebody else have access forget security [01:29] erver irc.serenia.net [01:29] Actually SCIM seems to crash on startup, I've to kill it and start it again in a term [01:30] melkor: yes most of what Ubuntu installs, I just want X is all, then I'll install something like Flux, or OpenBox [01:30] t3h2mas: Just keep your system updated with update-manager and you are fine [01:30] How can I see what serivices are available to my pc that is bound to a blue tooth device? [01:30] Is there someone I could talk to about loading a program in wine here? [01:30] mikelifeguard: lsof -i : [01:30] sender, well you can fix that by locking down grub [01:30] acicula: I think you can discourage ppl to (mis)use root AND have it secured by at least a password [01:30] Xgates I use alternate CD it has more option than live CD like encrypt the partitions, different OS partitions etc [01:30] mikelifeguard: netstat -a [01:30] But then, it doesn't react to the shortcut ctrl+spcace which used to work fine [01:30] Any idea? Any help? [01:30] Typos_King: that's the one; thanks :) [01:30] kjele, But isn't there a new kernel etc? I don't think that installed with the updates or the beta install, not sure though [01:30] hey.... i am getting really slow connection speeds for update manager.... Is this b/c the servers are bogged down? [01:30] acicula: we are talking about the lots of users who don't know linux too much, the switchers [01:30] Xgates: then you don't want the ubuntu alternate cd, there might be fluxbuntu or something, and maybe even the server version. [01:30] freezway: you think...! [01:30] ^paradox^: lucid kernel is 2.6.32 [01:30] zvacet: I think popping DRAMs into the freezer to recover my boot-time crypto keys is taking things too far. [01:30] Hi. I have a symbian bluetooth phone with a gprs dataplan. how can I connect to internet with my ubuntu notebook using bluetooth? [01:31] acicula: I'll look into encryption and definitely set a password for root account in the mean time [01:31] sender, so why would they need a (separate) root password? [01:31] melkor: ok, I noticed there are two alternate isos, one says desktop in it, what's with that one? [01:31] pzn, maybe pppd [01:31] greezmunkey, Nah, thinking takes effort i prefer not to... [01:31] !grub2 [01:31] GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 [01:31] NobodY? :( [01:31] Xgates: the desktop is going to have the whole gnome suite. [01:31] Where would I go to figure out a problem with wine? [01:31] enlil, what is ut problem? [01:31] <^paradox^> kjele: ok so thats what that was then. i figured thats what it was and why my kernels no higher than it is [01:31] t3h2mas: It will install [01:31] freezway, I just told id [01:31] think I may use xubuntu, remove any unecessary apps, then install vmware workstation in that [01:31] andy__: #wine, and search the winehq db [01:31] Ok I just went to Karmic from Jaunty and SCIM doesn't work anymore [01:31] and my os's in there [01:31] melkor: is the alternate just installing Gnome, or other apps too? [01:31] But then, it doesn't react to the shortcut ctrl+spcace which used to work fine [01:31] acicula: b/c anybody can boot into their system as root in the easiest way (without cd/usb) [01:31] Actually SCIM seems to crash on startup, I've to kill it and start it again in a term [01:31] But then, it doesn't react to the shortcut ctrl+spcace which used to work fine [01:31] enlil: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [01:31] since i have lucid i have a problem when im watching a video sometimes my screen bug i have a lot of line which appears and disapear fastly and i have to reset my laptop because i see nothing am i the only one who have this bug??? [01:32] #wine [01:32] ok [01:32] enlil, and i just joined. [01:32] Just installed lucid, and am using empathy for the first time. Very slick, but is there a way to cause it not to hide new messages, and just immediately open them in a window? If so, I can't find it [01:32] Andy_: wineHQ.com [01:32] #winhq [01:32] winehq [01:32] freezway, oh! My bad :p [01:32] Xgates: It is the normal version with a lightweight installer. [01:32] sender, setting a password does not change that fact,nor offers improvement === FunkySayu is now known as Nopnop [01:32] Humm, upgrading to Lucid broke wireless connectivity on my EEEPC 901. [01:32] ^paradox^: If you are cautious then you should do a backup === Nopnop is now known as funkysayu [01:32] freezway, si did you saw it this time? I repeated it. I've an issue with SCIM, on Karmic, that I didn't had on Jaunty :/ [01:33] pinnerup: I could've swore I spotted a forum post on that. Might want to do a quick search. === funkysayu is now known as FunkySayu [01:33] upgrading to 10.04 broke everything on my Toshiba,, it will not boot, even in recovery mode [01:33] somebody there? [01:33] Xgates: I think the server version you can install w/out gnome. [01:33] acicula: why not? There is the improvement that there is a password needed to have root [01:33] sender: 75% installed. Will confirm shortly. Sorry for the delay.

[01:33] e1hn4nd3r: no problem, thanks for testing [01:33] sender: having no password for root makes it impossible to log in as root via ssh [01:33] np. :) [01:33] also it seems kind of a suboptimal irc client---every new message forces the message pane to scroll to the bottom, making it impossible to scroll up and see what's just been said [01:33] <^paradox^> kjele: how does one backup ubuntu?

[01:34] hmw: so you are saying that having no password for root is actually a security improvement? [01:34] aguitel: No. More than likely just a post-release set of updates.

[01:34] thx ubottu [01:35] Chimecho: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [01:35] sender, you need a password and be an already privilidged user now to elevate yourself to root. Letting anyone go straight to root by setting, another, password merely weakens the overal scheme [01:35] melkor: yeah sure, I'd rather just not have them installed in the first place, hehe, btw is the server version going to install server apps, like apache and other things, or just basically Ubuntu as a terminal? [01:35] <^paradox^> kjele: well i have an external hard drive i could backup to [01:35] I am trying to install ubuntu 8.10 for my ps3. I got to the eboot screen and it just gets stuck.

So it should be hard, really hard to go straight to root. Sudo should be used whenever possible. This is how all the docs should be etc. etc. But what scenario [01:37] e1hn4nd3r: you said the server version came with all the server types of software and I said ---> yeah I figured that :) [01:37] earlier, it would boot to a prompt, but no X and dpkg and apt seemed to be broken [01:37] Xgates, not wireless, as not all wireless drivers can be distributed in such a way, the what nic card do you have? [01:37] Atheros [01:37] kjele, The internal HDD's were physically disconnected when I installed Ubuntu 10.04 to an External USB HDD. [01:37] xomp: is your Ubuntu HD the primary drive [01:37] *sorry, Maybe "su -" should be disabled while logged in. [01:37] williamdix, try checking the hdd from the live cd [01:37] frankie which video drive (nvidia, intel or ATI)? [01:37] sender, separate physical attacks from remote attacks and programs [01:38] Xgates: isn't atheros in the linux kernel ?

[01:38] chrometiger, in my BIOS it is currently, if I try setting say my Windows drive (which was the primary before) to be primary, I get the grub rescue menu. [01:38] xomp: When yoou boot now do you boot into the external or internal? [01:38] <^paradox^> i know i need to upgrade, but i dont want my computer to become unusable. [01:38] I want to be able to put multiple live cd and select which one to boot [01:38] melkor: yeah it's in the kernel I think, all I know is if Ubuntu is installed everything works, so I didn't look to see if they are seperate drivers or in the kernel [01:38] acicula, hmw: as far as remote root access: could you not simply set "AllowRootLogin no"? [01:38] xomp: disconnect the drive, that holds GRUB [01:38] hmw, I tried that too lol [01:39] sender, well su doesnt work by dfault either [01:39] I am trying to install ubuntu 8.10 for my ps3. I got to the eboot screen and it just gets stuck. I can not get back into xmb mode either any help to get ubuntu to install or get back into xmb mode for my ps3 [01:39] this is just insane how it can do this [01:39] xomp: have you physically disconnected the ubuntu drive and pluged up the Win drive and tried [01:39] chrometiger, correct [01:39] sender: there is no reason to log in as the system (aka root). it would be just another possible security hole. [01:39] sender, though sudo works [01:39] acicula: maybe root should be protected by a password (even the password of any kind, preset by ubuntu or set to the same as the user) when loggin in via console [01:39] sebsebseb: you can't delete the top panel with the right click menu, i freed myself from it by setting /desktop/gnome/session/required_components/panel to avant-window-navigator. [01:39] sender, that just covers ssh [01:39] xomp: im stumped then [01:39] chrometiger, is there a way to see if grub has installed itself onto these other hard drives? [01:40] sender, isnt that exactly how it is now ;) [01:40] Bloody language packs are standard now? That's annoying... [01:40] chrometiger, I am too, I need to check my car to see if Grub installed on it somehow since it has magical powers of installation to things that aren't connected to it.. [01:40] Hi, i'm running Ubuntu 8.04.2 shouldn't i be able to run the update manager and upgrade to 10.04 ? [01:40] except you cant go straight for root, but you have to go via users that are already allowed to become root [01:40] acicula: no, on the console I dont have to enter a password at all [01:40] collier_s, yeah [01:40] melkor: all I know is when it came time to setup the net, it said it couldn't find the ethernet and I was like really bummed :( [01:41] sender, as a normal user? [01:41] acicula: do you have a root passwd set? [01:41] melkor, nope [01:41] Xgates: Two things. Does lspci show your adapter? [01:41] acicula: sender: one cannot unmount /home, if they sudoed themselves to root. Therefore my root account has a password. [01:41] acicula, i'm getting a "no new release found" [01:41] anoyone update from LTS to LTS and have mysql break ? [01:41] e1hn4nd3r: If I'm running Karmic or Lucid it does [01:41] Xgates: how were you looking for you device? [01:41] hmw, heh yeah that poses a problem [01:42] What is the command to regain your encryption key for your home folder? [01:42] acicula, hmw: isn't the real problem here that grub loads a shell as root? Why is there no login prompt (a la ssh)? [01:42] Xgates: Possibly a driver/kernel change in the non-LTS releases broke it? [01:42] e1hn4nd3r: it shows the ether and wifi and both work [01:42] raze: surely if there were such a command the encryption would be pointless? [01:42] Question about empathy: is there a way to make it open new conversations automatically, rather than forcing you to allow them one by one from the menu? [01:42] collier_s: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LucidUpgrades [01:42] xom try fdisk -l and look for Boot (second column) The stars tell you where is boot loader ( grub) [01:42] sender, because a grub password is mostly an inconvienance [01:42] Attempting to install 10.04 64-bit on a touchsmart desktop with nvidia graphics from usb.

[01:42] melkor: I'm talking about the mini iso when you come to the section to have it setup and detect your network the installer comes back saying it can't find my ethernet [01:42] sender, and does not provide extra protection by itself [01:42] sender: if you want security, either hide GRUB totally (0 seconds delay) or use another boot loader. Physical access = no protection. period. [01:43] ^^ [01:43] dTal: I've used it already but it was about half a year ago. [01:43] hmw you are simply not right [01:43] anyone having trouble with gwibber and updating twitter? [01:43] install some C4 infront of the PC [01:43] Upgraded to 10.04. After I set visual effects to extra and imported my compiz settings to enable title bars and bordes for windows I find nothing new or changed. everything works, like it did with 9.10. Succesfull upgrade, tho I have no idea what is the benefit compared to 9.10 [01:43] JTSmeed: Touchsmart is one of those touch-screen desktops, right? Is the graphics adapter supported? Maybe the touch stuff is breaking it? [01:43] and some motion sensors [01:43] :) [01:43] ivo_: we are assuming, that no encryption has taken place [01:43] hey all can anyone help with installing adobe flash so i can get youtube to work? [01:43] hmw, you only need C4 and motion sensors [01:44] :) [01:44] ha1331: Themes, some other stuff. [01:44] <3 Txt, tpm and encryption [01:44] hey guys, is there a reason that rhythmbox isn't closing to the tray or the window list? it jut closes but keeps playing lol [01:44] ha1311: Read the changelog? lol [01:44] acicula, hmw: Yeah well an airbag is no 100% protection either, but it minimizes risk. Adding a password to the root account on console login (or having GRUB prompting for a existing username + password) would mean adding an airbar IMO [01:44] ivo_: i'd consider that NO physical access. [01:44] kjele, update manager kicks off, but says it's up2date and the upgrade button is greyed out. Could it be because i'm running ubuntu moblin edition on a dell mini? [01:44] e1hn4nd3r: themes... that propably is silliest reasons to upgrade. [01:44] melkor: the thing is, if I have my CAT5 plugged into my nic during the install of Ubuntu for the regular iso it will detect it during the install and sync the time, so I don't get why the mini iso doesn't show support my nic too [01:44] * Xgates bangs head [01:44] david are you on 32 or 64 bit? [01:44] <^paradox^> well i guess im gonna upgrade to 10.04 and see how it goes. lol i may need a hug afterwards [01:44] ivo_: Then how do you access the comp without blowing yourself? [01:44] sender: not having a root account is even better [01:44] ha1331__: I couldn't possibly tell you all the changes here. Honestly, you'd have to check the changelog. [01:44] some biosensors [01:44] sender, its equivalent to trying to stopping a 10ton truck with just your bare feet flinstone style [01:44] kjele: remotely with password [01:44] for eye recognition [01:45] collier_s: Try another mirror [01:45] e1hn4nd3r: The touchscreen part actually worked fine in the installer and with previous versions of Ubuntu. The graphics card is a standard Nvidia GeForce Go 6100. I haven't tried on a different machine yet. [01:45] or fingerprint scanner [01:45] kjele, ok, i'll look through docs and figure that out. thx [01:45] Xgates: it could be a network manager thing. Does the mini-iso have a live version / cmd prompt? [01:45] sender: Confirmed! VMWare EasyInstall script breaks the install. Confirmed on Win7 /w VMWare Player 3.0.1 [01:45] e1hn4nd3r: wasn't expecting that. I just taught there would be couple of biggies to mention. [01:45] how to register nickname of gstreamer channel [01:46] anyone have any idea about my rhythmbox issue? -_- [01:46] so how is everyone liking the new ubuntu? [01:46] melkor: live version / cmd prompt, what ya mean? [01:46] sender: I just got it to install cleanly by selecting "I will install the OS later" during the wizard setup and installed manually.

[01:46] melkor: yeah [01:46] d4rkmt7r: I think it's as good as 9.10. Yet to spot any clear improvements [01:47] , no it is not [01:47] Xgates what does ifconfig give you? [01:47] I just use encryption [01:47] :D [01:47] sp0spo: IMO, I wouldn't recommend doing any kind of filesystem check with a *nix tool. Too much could go wrong. [01:47] e1hn4nd3r: interesting - this is a potential problem for a lot of users [01:47] sp0spo: not really. there is a tool, but it's docs say, it is not a replacement. Reboot to windows and use scandisk. [01:47] sp0spo: yes and no, I think there is an ntfs tool, what about using a live-xp cd to do a checkdisk? no good? [01:47] melkor: ok hang tight, I need to erase a cd and burn this back on and boot it... [01:47] ha1331:good to know, thanks [01:47] sender: I can imagine. I'll look and see if there's a bugzilla thread for this. [01:47] Is this the right channel to ask questions about install trouble with Lucid Lynx? [01:47] sp0spo: that tool only finds certain kinds of errors, but cant fix the most [01:47] melkor ku4e starao, long time no see [01:47] Mathuin, yes [01:48] beek_: thanks!

[02:13] bsmith093: press alt+F2, then use update-manager -d [02:13] bsmith093: via the other releases inbetween [02:13] just install all the updates and its the finak release [02:13] final* [02:13] vampress: no its the same it updates to final [02:14] vampress, the package manager will take care to install the remaining packages, so your distribution will be the final release. [02:14] vocx, it is once again because people are not used to having to wait to install a new release till it works unless they run XP I am just saying its no good if people want this thing to be easier to use then windows [02:14] can I do that from terminal? [02:14] Hello [02:14] You could imagine peoples frustrations who have updated and cannot now login to there machine to get onto Google to even help them? [02:14] emergion: hey us older users knoe better [02:14] Ubuntu 10.04 is beautiful [02:15] i just installed ubuntu 10.04, and it won't recognize my second monitor correctly [02:15] any1 know how to move close, min, max buttons from left to right? [02:15] Dunno if I like the window ornaments on 10.04 UNR> [02:15] anyone having trouble with gwibber and updating twitter? I worked a few days ago, and sometime recently updates won't go through anymore. [02:15] wooo finally burnt my copy of Lynx.... Good bye W7 [02:15] RnFstRuckHrd [02:15] !buttons [02:15] Enabling extra mouse buttons: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ManyButtonsMouseHowto - Enabling serial mouse: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SerialMouseHowto [02:15] I'm using 64 bit on laptop [02:15] Well you guys have a lot of work to do before you can call this OS user friendly because that is very unfriendly wow epic fail [02:15] buttons! [02:15] !controls [02:15] In Lucid, the minimize, maximize, and close buttons have been moved to the left side. For more information, please see http://alturl.com/b6ja | To move them back to the right-hand side, see http://alturl.com/x5d6 [02:15] !ot | emergion [02:15] emergion: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! [02:15] emergion: what [02:15] studentz? [02:16] emergion: take the ramblings to #ubuntu-offtopic [02:16] did you find any problem already? [02:16] chelz, this is not a rambling you just don't want to hear it [02:16] :) [02:16] techtronic1: http://alturl.com/x5d6 [02:16] RnFstRuckHrd mine 2.6.32-22-generic #33-Ubuntu SMP Wed Apr 28 13:28:05 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux [02:16] I would like to know if people having problems upgraded to 10.04 or did a fresh install? [02:16] emergion: if it's not specifically about detailing a current support issue you are experiencing, then it's offtopic [02:17] emergion: if you have any questions or problems then ask/describe them [02:17] emergion, it is a rambling. If you want to file a bug, that's fine and welcomed, but don't come in here to lecture people on how bad the distribution is because you ran into one issue. [02:17] studentz - okay so what does the #33 mean? [02:17] letas: read the upgrade notes and decide which you want to do [02:17] emergion: is it worse than Karmic? [02:17] IdleOne: BRILLIANT - WORKED A TREAT, LOVING IT, THANKS! [02:17] techtronic1: sure thing [02:17] hi, i'm having an issue with the new nvidia drivers that work with ubuntu [02:18] I'm not sure but if you have the same kernel you are in lucid [02:18] can aptitude be used to list packages already installed? [02:18] upon installing the restricted drivers, my second monitor is not recognized correctly [02:18] if you already have OOo installed, do you have to remove that before installing KOffice? [02:18] !clone > Fudge [02:18] Fudge, please see my private message [02:18] how's flash working on firefox or chrome [02:18] it used to be able to use a resolution of 1280 by 1024, but now it's limited to 640 by 480 in the nvidia control panel [02:19] and it does not recognize it as a viewsonic monitor anymore [02:19] Its great :) The whole system is great I am just bringing the issue to attention as I think its a problem [02:19] sunzoje_, works "fine" for me, meaning that it's flash and eats a ton of cpu, but no other sound/vid problems. [02:19] thanks [02:19] Hi all.. I have a new problem in Lucid that I can't seem to fix. I switched the theme to clearlooks and put the top panel on the bottom and deleted the one that was orig. on the bottom. Now, when I put my pointer at the very top right of the screen (where it used to click the close button) now it grabs the maximized window instead. I can't find a fix anywhere [02:19] chelz: thanks but I am asking because I know by hard that upgrades have more problems that fresh install and after I upgraded to karmic i swore not to upgrade again [02:19] jbuncher: is it laggy??? form me it is [02:20] do i have to install -all- updates before upgrade from 9.10 to 10.04 (security and recommended)? [02:20] benzap: have you tried clicking (again) the detect displays buttons [02:20] kzman: yes [02:20] letas, then you'll probably want to back everything up and do a clean install [02:20] sunzoje_, flash video is fine for me, but if there are a lot of flash ads and such on a site, the scrolling does lag for me, yes. I wish sites wouldn't depend on flash so much.... [02:20] anyone found out, how to get window-icons back? [02:20] kjele, does this look like a valid entry in the sources.list file? deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/pub/ubuntu/ lucid main universe multiverse restricted [02:20] ok thanks [02:20] ipad will change that for us... [02:20] sadly [02:20] hello. Any website maintainers (of ubuntu.com) arround here ? The title on http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading is wrong... [02:21] !controls > kmw [02:21] beek_ sure thing I just want to help a bit :-) because most problems I have had with ubuntu are after an upgrade [02:21] letas: usually any big issues are listed in the release notes, otherwise yeah it is riskier than a fresh install so its up to each person to decide what's more important to them. you could always backup your /home and make a list of your installed applications, then do a fresh install and restore the /home and reinstall the applications [02:21] jbuncher: i thought so ..but for chrome it is much more ..it crashes a lot [02:21] collier_s: "/pub" is either unnecessary or wrong, apart from that it's fine [02:21] sunzoje_, ah ok. I'm just using firefox. [02:21] IdleOne: i read that, but it only gave me the "icon menu", but not the icon itself (as if it was invisible) [02:21] anyone having trouble with gwibber and updating twitter? I worked a few days ago, and sometime recently updates won't go through anymore. [02:21] letas, In my opinion people have problems because they have all these fancy hardware and programs and restricted drivers and such. If I didn't have an old PC, I would probably turn off all that before an upgrade, and then turn it back on after that. [02:22] hmw: sorry. I don't think I understood your question [02:22] jbuncher: page loading is little slow in firefox than chrome though [02:22] how can i force grub2 to show the boot menu? [02:22] mattgyver: hold down shift [02:22] chelz you are right about that - i have my little script to backup the names of the applications and their configuration files which is very handy [02:22] rww, thanks thats it : [02:22] IdleOne: you understood me. That thing just doesnt fully restore it. I have 9.10 and when i click to the "invisble" icon, i get the menu, as it was in jaunty. I just don't see any icons there. [02:22] collier_s: remove the /pub [02:22] sunzoje_, that could be, I've never used chrome. I don't really have a compelling reason to switch right now. [02:22] rww, chelz still getting a failure to fetch files [02:23] Could this be?! The first ubuntu to work with sound OOTB?! [02:23] letas: that's good. yeah ideally i'd suggest a fresh install if you have that experience [02:23] vocx that can be true - yet again I have never had a problem with my old compaq 2500 and believe me that is very restrictive [02:23] jbuncher: oh [02:23] can anybody told me how to completely shut down gwibber.. for ever? [02:23] tgdosti, uninstall it? [02:23] collier_s: us.archive.ubuntu.com is likely under heavy load right now. try replacing "us.archive.ubuntu.com" with "ubuntu.osuosl.org", see if that works. [02:23] letas, so probably the drivers are the same and haven't changed. [02:23] ditto.. [02:23] dugger5688: my sound didn't work out the box. I had to mess with it... [02:23] rww, ok [02:23] hmw: again, I am sorry but I have no idea what icons you are talking about. I thought you were asking about the close,maximize,minimize buttons [02:23] chelz - I belong to the ubuntu realm since 2006 [02:24] can i use my ipod touch with 10.04 [02:24] !ipod [02:24] For information on how to sync and add tracks to your iPod, see the guide at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IPodHowto - For the iPhone and the iPod Touch, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PortableDevices/iPhone - See !RockBox for information on liberating your iPod [02:24] no it will try to unistall other packages because of the dependencies.. [02:24] Loshki: i know iphones work out of the box [02:24] jbuncher: i was on 10.04 beta and did software update ...now when i try to upgrade it says no release found .. [02:24] chelz i aam just mad at myself because I haven't helped as much as I should have done it [02:24] chelz: thanks. I did it for techtronic1 .... [02:24] so i am trying to make Lucid my starting point to help others [02:25] letas: http://www.ubuntu.com/community [02:25] Loshki: mine worked, right away :-) I went and messed with it then realized that it sounded perfect w/o any kludges. [02:25] How long does the Startup Disc Creator usually take to complete? [02:25] techtronic1: i know iphones work out of the box [02:25] rww, Failed to fetch http://ubuntu.osuosl.org/ubuntu/dists/lucid/Release Unable to find expected entry main/binary-lpia/Packages in Meta-index file (malformed Release file?) [02:25] IdleOne: oh. Well: If you add menu:minimize,maximize,close you get the "icon menu" on the top left back. Like in MS Windows, every window Ubuntu used to show the icon of the application in the top left corner. When you (left)clicked it, you got the same menu as you get now by right-clicking the title bar. So it was showing the FireFox icon. Now I only have the there mini/maxi/close icons. :( [02:25] IdleOne: took about three minutes on my Eee 1000. [02:25] chelz: ok thanks, maybe its just my config in someway [02:26] i am trying to add cpufreq to 10.4, however all the applets have move, remove and lock greyed out. [02:26] Mathuin: been a little over ten minutes saying "installing the bootloader" [02:26] sunzoje_, if you were updating before today, you should already be on the final release. The "beta" is continually upgraded to the final release, as long as you kept downloading all of the updates. [02:26] hmw: ahh I see what you mean now. No I don't know. [02:27] IdleOne: thanks though. I keep investigating. [02:27] hi guys, I am looking for the xorg.conf file - it doesn't seem to be in the /etc/x11/ anyone know? :) [02:27] zkyp, I believe that was removed officially as of 9.10, but I could be wrong. [02:27] hello everyone [02:27] hmm, is there any way to make a wallpaper span AND stretch in lucid? seems like all my dual monitor wallpapers have borders on each side now [02:27] zkyp, you can still place one in /etc/X11 if you'd like, though [02:27] anyone having trouble with gwibber and updating twitter? I worked a few days ago, and sometime recently updates won't go through anymore. [02:27] collier_s: I joined the channel in the middle of your problem. Are you attempting to upgrade to Lucid, or do you already have Lucid installed and are having problems getting updates? [02:27] anybody working here from Canonical working on lucic lynx? [02:27] i just finished downloading the new ubuntu [02:27] Sir_Fawnpug: thanks :-) [02:27] rww, attempting to upgrade [02:27] and during the installation process [02:27] zkyp: one can create that, but in my case, it seemed as if it was totally ignored. What would you want to configure there? [02:28] ubottu: upgrade | collier_s [02:28] collier_s: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading [02:28] it stuck in "34%" [02:28] zkyp: Sir_Fawnpug: yes, it was removed, because X11 autoconfigures itself -- except when it doesn't... [02:28] where do i look for the button to autorize my box to ubuntu one after i log in ? [02:28] !ask | sender [02:28] sender: 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. :-) [02:28] collier_s: use the official instructions instead of editing sources.list [02:28] "preparing memtest86+" [02:28] did anyone pass it? [02:28] Ergo^: System -> Preferences -> Ubuntu One [02:28] hmw, I have 9.10 on my workstation at ... uh... work, and am using a custom xorg.conf without any problems. [02:28] msmooth: do I need to mkfs on the partitions /dev/sda1 and /dev/sdb1 before creating /dev/md0 from them? [02:29] hey its been eons since i've installed a linux distro but does ubuntu include an OS selector for systems with multi OSes? [02:29] hmw: we're trying to resurrect an ancient touchscreen computer [02:29] Yeah, I know. I dont have a question. I've got an solution to a problem a lot of ppl running lucid lynx will have. I think Ubuntu should be updated :) [02:29] no [02:29] RandyOrt, yes. [02:29] thanks sir_fawnpug [02:29] btw. is it me or gwibber in this 10.04 doesnt show avatars for twitter > [02:29] hi [02:29] rww, you missed that part of troubleshooting, i've update manager, and the upgrade button is greyed out [02:29] what's the default (gnome)theme of lucid? [02:29] i'm off to install 10.04 :) [02:29] and morning Ergo^ ;) [02:29] Sir_Fawnpug: interesting. I tried to configure the screen resolution without success. I am using some onboard intel GPU. [02:29] RandyOrt, ubuntu should automatically detect other operating systems and put them into grub for you [02:29] rww, i've used * [02:29] collier_s: What version of Ubuntu are you using right now? [02:29] thanks! [02:29] :) [02:30] rww, Ubuntu 8.04.2 [02:30] how many people here [02:30] !hi | cin [02:30] cin: 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! [02:30] I just install 10.04 [02:30] Has anyone been able to install lucid lynx by mounting the .iso through Grub2 ? I can boot the .iso but I can't modify the partition table since the image file is on the same disk. Any workarounds? [02:30] msmooth: hrm, it doesn't want to merge my two swap drives /dev/sda2 and /dev/sdb2 into /dev/md1 -- It complains /dev/sdb2 is too small: 1K when it's really 20G. [02:30] hey Freeaqingme [02:30] rww, i was trying to add another mirror at the suggestion of another helper in here.. becuase this is a dell mini 10 and we thought i didn't have the correct mirrors [02:30] facugaich, do you have a thumbdrive handy? [02:31] collier_s: Have you tried the command-line instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LucidUpgrades#Network%20Upgrade%20for%20Ubuntu%20Servers%20%28Recommended%29 ? It says they're for Ubuntu Server, but will work with Desktop too. [02:31] facugaich, use a live cd and gparted [02:31] hi everyone. I am experimenting with 10.04 on the Asus Aspire One A0751h at least it boots (compared to 9.10) is there a solution for getting (a) the right resolution and (b) video card drivers rather than software rendering? [02:31] rww, not yet, i'll give a try [02:31] mathuin: no idea bro on that one [02:31] Sir_Fawnpug, No... that would work, yes, I don't even have a secondary HDD [02:31] Does anyone know if there is a way to install a library on 10.04 that has been discontinued? I am trying to install libgmp3 but there is no installation candidate. [02:31] is mesa driver better in this releasing? [02:32] rww, yea, i have, i get this message: "No new release found" [02:32] rww i know that screen, but after i authorize via web im unsure where should i add my machine as authorized for syncing [02:32] anybody knows how to make my notebook less noisy [02:32] does anyone know how to close a workspace in gnome shell? [02:32] facugaich, while I haven't tried to boot an ISO from grub (I wasn't aware you even could), if you did, you might be able to modify the partition table that way. [02:32] collier_s: oh, I think I see what's going on. What's the output of the "uname -a" Terminal command? [02:32] cin, turn it off? [02:32] i mean tool for speed fan [02:32] cin: hammer? after applying hitting the netbook will make no sound [02:32] :P [02:32] ^) [02:32] Freeaqingme: support first, then comedy... [02:32] cin: does ur bios have any settings? [02:32] yep [02:33] anyone having trouble with gwibber and updating twitter? I worked a few days ago, and sometime recently updates won't go through anymore. [02:33] cin: also, has it become noisy recently, or always was [02:33] Apple_Eater first try the web second the old way sources install gnu-utils and compile it :) [02:33] rww, Linux scollier 2.6.24-24-lpia #1 SMP Sat Sep 12 02:59:41 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux [02:33] it is noise in economic mode [02:33] Loshki, i fixed my gstreamer problem with help of gstreamer guys, some codecs got blacklisted without a good reason [02:33] cin: always i assume... then it could be a bad fan. basically you don't want to turn it down, otherwise you might overheat and cause damage === Eddie is now known as Guest85767 [02:33] I make theme on ububntuforum about this problem [02:33] Ergo^: good you got a solution. Where were they blacklisted? [02:34] cin: or is ubuntu running fan at full speed 100% of the time [02:34] http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=9197460&posted=1#post9197460 [02:34] Anyone else have a eee pc ? 1005ha or 1008ha model ? Or a wired and wireless connection not working on 10.04 with atheros card ? Wireless never worked on 9.10 out of the box but at least, wired was and the tweak was easy. If anyone could get back to me it would be great. Thx [02:34] frankbro: I have a 1000 and the wired and wireless worked out of the box. [02:34] i've tried every key that i can think of to close a workspace [02:34] when i did my distribution upgrade on this machine i was running lighttpd. after upgrade apache2 is installed (along-side of lighttpd which was updated). why was apache2 installed? === Guest1888 is now known as BrendenB [02:34] so my question again: hi everyone. I am experimenting with 10.04 on the Asus Aspire One A0751h at least it boots (compared to 9.10) is there a solution for getting (a) the right resolution and (b) video card drivers rather than software rendering? [02:34] collier_s: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/1004#LPIA%20architecture%20discontinued [02:34] fluid, probably as a dependency [02:34] jbuncher: twitter was not working for me through gwibber ...no frequent updates [02:35] how do I remove the graphical login and use something like ctrl alt f1 to login into a graphical desktop? [02:35] Loshki, probably got some lib that reverted gstreamer, and then i installed restricted extras that reverted that lib, but gstreamer stayed blacklisted [02:35] another sleepless night spent trying to fix stuff... [02:35] rww, that'll do it. [02:35] rww, thanks [02:35] sunzoje_, waht do you mean by "no frequent updates"? [02:35] Ergo^: must've taken some detective work... [02:35] Mathuin: UNR or desktop edition ? And im not sure 1000 use the same card, tho i might be wrong. [02:35] it doesn't show updates frequently [02:35] frankbro: UNR, probably uses different cards. :( [02:36] Loshki, now i need to figure out how to connect to ubunto one and why gwibber doesnt show me twitter avatars :/ [02:36] Mathuin: IM trying UNR now, Ill see [02:36] acicula: been looking at things i can think of that might require it like php5, etc...cant find anything that does. [02:36] jbuncher: it doesn't show updates [02:36] Ergo^: best of luck... [02:36] how do I set up a dual boot on an EeePC? [02:36] anyone knows how to get the built-in intel card video drivers working vs software rendering (aspire one a0751h)? [02:36] I mean that in windows there was tool for economic power, and notebook was absolutely quite, but in lucid it is make some noise, not 100% though but itis still harmless [02:37] removing apache2-bin removes it, the apache php module, and thats it...so weird... [02:37] hey, i just upgraded my ubuntu to 10.04... but i read reviews talking about the Me menu... yet I don't see it... do I have to turn it on somewhere? [02:37] jbuncher: also, the account box shows up every two or three minutes [02:38] hey all, just upgraded and my disk won't stop spinning. How can I trouble shoot it? Is there a way to see what is using the disk? [02:38] has anyone installed the 64bit onto a N450 cpu pc, and does it run [02:38] fluid, dunno try to uninstall it and see what it tries to take with it [02:38] already did [02:38] fodder70: thats a netbook cpu right? I thought those were 32bit cpus. [02:38] and it didnt take anything but itself and the php module (for apache) php5-common remained [02:39] sunzoje_, so odd, it was working just a few days ago. [02:39] ah, no it finally stopped, like updatedb was running even though it wasnt. thanks anyhow [02:39] Ugh! "mdadm: Cannot open /dev/sda2: Device or resource busy" but nothing's using sda2 according to lsof or fuser... [02:39] Hey guys, would anyone know how to extract a .tar on Ubuntu which has been split so that I have both a .tar.001 and a .tar.002? [02:40] MitchLeBlanc: cat foo.001 foo.002 > foo.tar.gz then try to extract it. [02:40] which is the most popular bug in this release? [02:40] mathiun: did u set it up as raid in the intel bios? [02:40] Dr_Willis: Trying now, thanks [02:40] hello ... is there face recognition for ubuntu yet ? [02:40] download [02:40] pepee: Bugs don't tend to be popular [02:40] ubuntu #1 bug is [02:40] Guthur, s/popular/common/ [02:41] though it's more an issue than a bug [02:41] mathiun:let me rephrase did you already have a raid set in nintl matrix bios, before u tried mdadm? [02:41] Hi, I updated to 10.02 but every time the machine goes to hibernate I have to reboot any ideas? [02:42] solar_george: I did push the detect displays button, it doesn't do anything [02:42] is the update server sources down or just peged from the new realese? [02:42] So i've got mounted network shares [02:42] for a locale in the USA, do we want, en_us or en_us.utf-8? [02:42] what is a good program for reading compressed files IE .rar .iso .cab. ace [02:42] stopsign: it's pretty pegged... [02:42] nice [02:42] stopsign: pegged "badly" [02:42] thanks [02:42] 7zip [02:42] The windows user i've mounted the shares as has full contorl of the share, but from my ubuntu box I can't write to it at all... [02:42] is it me or the default theme on 10.04 is horrible? [02:42] msmooth: I deleted the RAID set I built in the Intel Matrix tool before starting fussing with mdadm. [02:43] basix, gnome is horrible by default [02:43] isn't the default theme some dark thing? [02:43] how do I set up a dual boot on an EeePC? [02:43] does anyone know how to close a workspace in Gnome Shell? i cant seem to do it consistently [02:43] pepee, no no...the default black, brown, red mess of a color scheme [02:43] msmooth: ok thanks [02:43] Twiple: depends on the Eee. Mine has two SSDs so I had one OS on each. [02:43] dominicdinada, the default archive manager manages many formats. Other formats are supported when you install additional packages, like rar and 7zip [02:44] basix, oh, no idea. I'm in kubuntu [02:44] Arc: you some now mouse over the workspace so it shows a circle with a -, then click on that circle. [02:44] does booting a live version of ubuntu from a usb work both on FAT32 and NTFS? [02:44] dominicdinada for .iso try acetona iit is the main repository [02:44] Mathuin: Mine's Hard Drive, is dev/sda2 vital in anyway? [02:44] vocx: the default reader is ark which reads only a few formats [02:44] Browsing: only FAT [02:45] Browsing: and you have to set it up with unetbootin [02:45] is there any way to list all of my installed packages on an ubuntu install, from a live disc? [02:45] Twiple: that's probably swap. you need that for hibernate, I believe. [02:45] Mathuin: also known as the D: drive in windows [02:45] yea, i tried it on my usb on NTFS and it didn't work :( time to reformat [02:45] Mathuin: a 66GB swap!? [02:45] rezor: you have to chroot then you can use any normal method of listing out stuff [02:45] I thought it was just extra storage or something [02:45] Twiple: Wow, that's probably your home directory. Didn't realize it was that big. [02:45] hi guys!! [02:45] Here they're 8 and 32G. [02:45] !hi | GalegO [02:45] GalegO: 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! [02:46] chelz: thanks, will try [02:46] dominicdinada, in Gnome the default is Fille Roller. I suppose I don't remember how many formats it supports, since once you install the package you forget about it. But I think I only needed to install rar and 7zip to open most files. [02:46] Anyone already installed the ati driver 10.4 on ubuntu 10.04? [02:46] why doesn't my Zune sync with Rhythymbox? [02:46] I have some error and the driver don't install [02:46] Mathuin: I think it's just extra space, I'm pretty sure I can format it if I want... [02:46] I've read several times that the need for a swap partition really isn't there anymore, and that a swap file would work just as well...has anyone done that, and does it work as well? [02:46] Mathuin: I just want to be extra safe, though [02:46] Anyone else's clock applet not showing the weather after having the weather check box marked? [02:46] I have a question, How to change Ubuntu Login sound in 10.04? [02:46] Dr_Willis: thanks, the minus icon wasnt showing up well against my desktop background [02:46] Twiple: Fair enough. It'll probably be fine. :-) [02:47] Mathuin: So go ahead? [02:47] Geoffrey2, I have a swap file 2GB. Works okay, I use it to suspend to disk (hibernation). No problems. [02:47] Irony: The first result for how to get flash working in ubuntu is a video in flash of how to do it... [02:47] Twiple: I would. [02:47] Does anyone know where I can find more modern-looking network diagram shapes for dia? My diagram looks like it's from the 80's :-P [02:48] vocx: I thought ark is the default non the less it doesnt support common formats I use on my pocket drive from computer to computer so i will give 7zip a try [02:48] rezor: if you follow https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2#Recover%20Grub%202%20via%20LiveCD up to the chroot step, then you should be able to run dpkg --get-selections "*" > myselections [02:48] federico_: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree .. should do it.. [02:48] Guess #Ubuntu+1 is abandoned now eh? lol [02:48] Mathuin: wait, it's using 2 GB and I can't find any files on it... [02:49] STiK: it is forwarded here lol [02:49] Mathuin: is this natural? [02:49] dominicdinada, by the way, 7zip, or 7za, I don't remember exactly the package name, is NOT a graphical interface. It's just a command line program. However, programs like File Roller and Ark are able to use them seamlessly. [02:49] anybody installed the new ATI driver for the ubuntu 10.04 ?? [02:49] dominicdinada: try setting up an FTP server on one of the machines.. [02:49] p7zip [02:49] Twiple: the original install used the extra drive. I put FreeBSD on mine then, so I have no idea what was there. [02:49] p7zip is the gui? [02:50] Scunizi: I will do so but these are 3 laptops atm [02:50] Mathuin: so you're waying it will ruin the windows? [02:50] saying [02:50] dominicdinada: shouldn't matter.. as long as the one with the server is running [02:50] Dr_Willis: That worked, thank you! [02:50] Today someone just gave me a barricuda 500gig to add to the fileserver when i get time to put it together [02:50] dominicdinada, no, there are no GUIs. It's all command line. Just install that, and Ark should be able to use it. [02:50] Mathuin: I wish #eeepc wasn't dead... [02:51] Twiple: you and me both. :-( [02:51] LOL i keep getting the errors ( UNRAR not found in the path ) after i threw in 7zip let me download unrar [02:52] dominicdinada, well of course you cannot unrar rar without unrar... [02:52] If I was already using a developer release of 10.04 is it normal to not get any new updates in the manager? [02:52] thats what the lioness told me anyway [02:52] vocx: ^ [02:52] dominicdinada: i always use the 'unp' script. theres also the specific rar and unrar binaries you may want to use instead of 7zip [02:52] hah so if I leave I will get forwarded back here if I try to rejoin? [02:52] vocx: well of course 7zip reads 30 different compression formats but ark wants unrar [02:53] what is the command to upgrade distribution? sudo aptitude dist-upgrade? [02:53] The new kernel upgrade in 9.10 seems to hog the processor much more than the last one. [02:53] yes [02:53] Bah, girlfriend aggro. See you guys later! [02:53] j0el: yes.. to my post? [02:53] mark_: same for me! [02:53] dominicdinada, then use command line... and complain to the Ark devs for not using 7zip if available [02:53] so has anyone else had issues with losing all usb input device support upon upgrading to 10.04? [02:53] yes Scunizi [02:54] greezmunkey: ok thanks [02:54] mark_: well, I upgraded to the rc [02:54] Mathuin: Can the OS detect a hidden partition? [02:54] greezmunkey: yes I have been installing updates as it goes, started at beta 1 [02:54] j0el: glad I'm not the only one.. things slow down much more when before I never noticed any slowdowns [02:54] Mathuin: and utilize it? [02:54] mark_: do me a favor, check the end of /var/log/messages - do you see any errors there? [02:55] I guess it makes sense that there are no updates, they wouldn't be tested in the official version if there were changes between the RC and release .. but I still feel left out ;) [02:55] vocx: after all your facious words it was a simple package to get ark to decompress rars [02:55] greezmunkey: doesn't look like there are any errors [02:55] mark_: my bad, I ment to ask you to look at /var/log/kern.log [02:56] what i have to do to get 3d acceleration on intel graphics? [02:56] can anyone tell me which file i need to link so that Firefox recognizes the installation of Java? Im on LLynx x64 [02:56] dominicdinada, what did you expect. I don't use Ark. I use file toler. I installed 7zip and rar support years ago and forgot about it. [02:56] greezmunkey: nothing there either [02:56] mark_: I am getting this since I updated: kernel: imklog: Cannot read proc file system, 1 [02:57] is it possible to partition a usb drive to have two different formats? [02:57] yes [02:57] greezmunkey: hmm, sorry I can't help you with that, doesn't mean anything to me [02:57] would any partitioning program work for such a task? [02:58] Browsing: gparted [02:58] mark_: I think something in here is referring to a log file that is no longer in use. I'll probably just back up and install clean, thanks though :) [02:58] i know im prolly the 100th person to ask this, but where in god's name are the 10.04 HASHES?!?!? === zerocool is now known as OERIAS [02:58] Browsing: yes you can have 2 partation on a usb [02:58] greezmunkey: np :) [02:58] thanks, Scunizi and gogeta [02:59] anyone can help on a usb input device issue? i have no mouse support right now. my usb keyboard doesn't work, i had to get my old ps2 keyboard out [02:59] Good Morning!

[03:09] php 5.3 sucks so hard [03:09] i need 5.2.x [03:09] netbook: The reasoning behind that is that apache2.conf is actually in the -common package, so you need to purge that to get rid of it. Then when you reinstall, it comes back default [03:09] <__dantheman> Othor: have you tried to run it in a term to see the output? [03:09] gogeta, no nopcmcia didn't work [03:09] gogeta, im trying to get the next one [03:09] Flannel: is there some issue with the lamp-server^ package? [03:09] mdel: What do you mean?

[03:10] __dantheman, yes all it says is "Segmentation fault" for both of them [03:10] guys i have 10.04 RC1 , how do i upgrade to full release. update-manager -d didn't work, and check check on update manager guy didn't either [03:10] <__dantheman> hmmm [03:10] Flannel: just wondering, since you were talking to netbook about it [03:10] <__dantheman> have you tried removing and reinstalling? [03:10] netbook: right, apache2 will drag in those other ones (it depends on them) [03:10] mdel: There is no "lamp-server" package [03:10] locyaw: well most of the time no usb is a power magment issue so1 of em has to work [03:10] Flannel: yeah there definitely is [03:10] its a metapackage [03:10] mdel: irc.freenode.net doesnt work also.. :/ wtf... [03:10] __dantheman, i did with chromuim, i also remove the ~/.config/chromium folder [03:11] mdel: I don't see it in karmic, lucid, or hardy. [03:11] Flannel should I apt-get install apache or apache2? [03:11] <__dantheman> apt-get purge? [03:11] netbook: apache2 (I don't think you still have an 'apache' package) [03:11] __dantheman, no let me try doing that [03:11] Flannel: im 100% sure its there [03:11] __dantheman, purge removes the config files [03:11] gogeta, will that effect all my usb devices? because i have others that are working. its just the mouse and keyboard [03:11] do some one know how to remove position marker in marok? [03:11] i just installed it... i can screenshot if you want [03:11] *amarok [03:11] @pedrosantra At the "Network" i have just select "FreeNode"! I didnt find something more...

[03:12] <^Major_Ramsey^> Anybody ever hook up a commodore to an Ubuntu PC? [03:12] Okay [03:12] Flannel: its a metapackage, try installing it and then cancel [03:13] for reals Major [03:13] * brianherman drinks some mountain dew to feel better [03:13] on all of day :) [03:13] days [03:13] gogeta, okay, im giving the no acpi a try right now [03:13] Why isn't my iPod Nano automounting?

Because I don't know if the Atheros support is as a .deb package or Ubuntu put the support in the kernel [03:13] if i rember been years [03:13] mdel: Because it's not an actual package. Are you talking about through task-sel? [03:14] Flannel: nope.. just ran 'sudo apt-get install lamp-server^ [03:14] i have a mount point in /etc/fstab that isnt always hooked up at boot time but 10.04 now sits waiting when booting up if it fails to mount. is there any way to change this behavior?

[03:18] hello, can anyone assist a general Linux-noob in installing drivers for my soundcard? [03:18] Flannel: hey... any thoughts on compiling/installing php5.2 on 10.04 [03:18] I had upgraded to the RC of 10.04 from the previous version several days ago and while it was a little slow all my hardware worked. I don't normally do upgrades because they tend to run slower compared to a fresh install. Well the final version was released today and I burned a copy and did a fresh install. Problem is now my sound doesn't work. Everything else is running fine. Logging in seems to be slower then before, not sure why. I don't care abou [03:18] t that but I would like my sound working. Any help with that would be appreciated. [03:18] un214: isnt there some way to stop it from waiting? i just upgraded from 9.10 and it never did that before. [03:18] no clue [03:18] un214: i mean without hacking the rc scripts [03:19] fyi, rc.local is for you [03:19] system changes won't overwrite it [03:19] <__dantheman> z3ro3x: does lspci show your soundcard? [03:19] mdel: You could try installing the Karmic version, I'd have to actually poke around the depends to see if it might work [03:19] pokeh you don't have sound at all ? [03:19] Flannel: how can I see the dependencies? [03:19] locyaw: maybe you can rerun the corg config and set the mosue correctly [03:19] and keybord [03:19] xorg [03:19] Daijoubu: No, I do. Sound works. It just is very flat and I suspect that installing Realtek's own drivers (from their website) would improve it. [03:20] un214: i know but im sure im not the only person in this situation, shouldnt it be configurable whether one failed mount point blocks the entire boot process? [03:20] <_Techie_> how can i setup a software raid to install to using the livecd? [03:20] Hey. I am running do-release-update on a 8.10 install and it is not seeing 10.4LTS. Anyone having the same issue? [03:20] pokeh, is it an intel motherboard or is it ALC 888 ? [03:20] and if it's /usr or /home? [03:20] mdel: You can do it all on he commnd line, or your favorite package manager, but this is probably easiest: http://packages.ubuntu.com/lucid/libapache2-mod-php5 [03:20] gogeta, i will give that a try [03:20] __dantheman, Will be listed under PCI bridge? It's integrated sound. [03:20] Daioubu: How can I check? [03:20] Flannel: thanks [03:21] hej there. is anybody running an eee? if so, is the eee-applet running? [03:21] pokeh, you don't need surround sound right? [03:21] __dantheman, yeah i'll do that, i'm also having issues with my nvidea drivers, thats why i wanted the internet..lol [03:21] it's waiting for udev to settle so the device shows up [03:21] <__dantheman> most likely realtek or intel if its integrated [03:21] un214: if that was such a critical problem why is this the first time any linux distro ive ever used in the last 5+ plus years has made a big stink about it? [03:21] is it safe to resize my windows partition? [03:21] i am trying to get http://www.nedrebo.org/code/rhythmbox/desktop_art to work in rhythmbox in lucid, but keep getting "unable to activate plugin" i don't see gnome-python-desktop in synaptic [03:21] jhulten_: check in Software Sources make sure you have Normal release selected under the updates tab [03:21] Twiple: which os? [03:21] well we're only recently seeing hyper dynamic systems like these [03:21] I just installed 10.04 on a virtualbox and installed guest additions and now it wont load gnome, all i see is the wallpaper, nothing else. [03:21] Daijobu: Well, I should probably add now that this computer is an iMac, which is an AIO made by Apple. It has integrated speakers. Just two, so I assume its just stereo [03:21] <_Techie_> how can i setup a software raid to install to using the livecd? [03:21] root on usb device was unheard of [03:22] IdleOne: Normal vs? Also, this is a non-GUI install... [03:22] <__dantheman> z3ro3x: type lspci | grep audio [03:22] does anybody know how to play an mp3 from ubuntu server? [03:22] man download is at 15kbs [03:22] jhulten_: ahh umm. I am not certain what to tell you now [03:22] <__dantheman> er should be a capital a [03:22] erm, running lucid and the eee-control isnt working at all... [03:22] pokeh, emm o-o you want good sound with 2 integrated speakers?! [03:22] un214: it's not really hyper dynamic. i have an esata drive that i dont like having turned on all the time plugged into my computer. when it's turned on and i turn on my computer, i want it to mount it. when it's not on and i turn on my computer, i want to boot up fully without complaining about it. [03:22] __dantheman, 00:02.7 Multimedia audio controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] AC'97 Sound Controller (rev a0) [03:22] hey guys. i am running 9.10, and syslog, kern.log and xorg.0.log.old keep eating up all my space. any help? [03:22] <__dantheman> lspci | grep Audio [03:22] <__dantheman> ok, so at least it's there [03:22] then hack the boot scripts [03:23] mickster04 XP [03:23] syslog is 4GB. kern.log is 4GB. the xorg log is 2. it'd be bigger if the drive was bigger than 20GB.. [03:23] What's up with the new "biohazard" like logo?? [03:23] pokeh, i have surround sound and it is a little flat, i have ALC888 so i doubt that the realtek driver will do anything for you [03:23] now im stuck at 20kb [03:23] <__dantheman> go to System -> Preferences -> Sound [03:23] running lucid 64bit on a sony vaio laptop, mic not working.. [03:23] how can i stop flash files support in firefox at certain times ? this is for parental control [03:23] __dantheman, I got the result with a lower case a. [03:23] un214: there seriously isnt a switch i can flip somewhere instead? [03:23] anybody who can support? [03:23] Twiple: I'm not sure, you see the later versions of ntfs will be resizeable...but then i dunno if the install would try if it couldn't, :/ [03:24] jhulten_: you will have to upgrade to 9.04 then 9.10 and then 10.04 you can't leapfrog version [03:24] dunno [03:24] <__dantheman> ya, thats fine. My audio device doesn't have a lowercase a in audio so it didnt show up when using lspci [03:24] Twiple: back up first then do it:D [03:24] __dantheman, There is suppose to be a sound when the login screen comes up which there wasn't. So it seems it goes deeper then just my user settings. [03:24] Anyone have any idea how I would get Ubuntu installed on my Mac Mini (with a broken optical drive)? Tried an external CD/DVD drive and a USB installer created from a 10.04 disc and neither work... Trying to dd a partition (with Ubuntu installed on it) from a USB hard drive onto the internal partition set aside for Ubuntu, then getting rEFIt to boot into grub, then edit entries there to boot Ubuntu. Am I wasting my time, or is ther [03:24] <__dantheman> but any audio device is listed as an "Audio device" [03:24] i have not seen 12kb since dial up [03:24] jhulten_: in this case I think a backup and fresh install would be better for you [03:24] IdleOne: I thought you could leapfrog between LTS versions. [03:24] I've written my own bootscripts before and I'd have kicked upstart and plymouth out long ago if I could figure out what services X needs these days [03:24] <__dantheman> z3ro3x: I realize that, I just want to make sure it isn't something obvious like muted volume [03:24] anyone use compiz on old nvidia card [03:25] microhaxo, are you using the PUEL (version from Oracle) version of VBox on Windows? If so, you should ask in #vbox, as it's working fine with the OSE version from Ubuntu repos - but people where having issues in #ubuntu+1 with 10.04 for a while now [03:25] __dantheman, I have Sound Preferences open. [03:25] Can see ? [03:25] erm, writing abother script is actually working in arch, but not in ubuntu. [03:25] jhulten_: yes, your right. forgot 8.10 was LTS [03:25] jcbv, just get better card [03:25] <__dantheman> go to the hardware tab [03:25] gogeta, no go on the reconfig xorg [03:25] dos000_: you can block sties by domain but not at given times unless your router allows blocking by domain name @ a given time. [03:25] * ashi is quite wondering [03:25] not doing that [03:25] pokeh, let me see what's in the realtek driver pack and see if i can help you out [03:25] Daijoubu: the thing is, I am triple booting (successfully). The sound quality is absolutely phenominal in OS X, but it is awful in Ubuntu. Sounds a little tinny, very soft at lower volumes, definetely needs work and not enjoyable. [03:25] then give up compiz [03:25] like tnt or tnt2 geforce 2 gts [03:25] does anybody can see this sentence? [03:25] yes [03:25] Jiong: yes [03:25] __dantheman, On the previous version I had to change the profile to get my volume setting right. [03:25] WOW, thats an old card === c is now known as Guest53935 [03:26] IdleOne: thanks [03:26] haha [03:26] im tempted to just give up i waited the whole night [03:26] Daijoubu: also, I'm not sure what driver, I just went onto Realtek's site, and downloaded their Linux driver. I checked the readme and I think my card is supported. I'll check.. [03:26] ablyss, it seems that there is a way you can block all browsing with iptables .. but that is too much [03:26] __dantheman, Right now it's on "Digital Stereo (IEC958) Output + Analog Stereo Input".

It says error: ‘MAX_NR_ZONES’ undeclared here. [03:26] can anyone else not view javasript applets in chrome or firfox? [03:26] Daijoubu: Realtek ALC889a [03:27] vicsar: hehe, you are so funny! [03:27] things I find on google suggest that I don't have my kernel headers installed or something, but I totally do. [03:27] ok being on mirc aint helping the cause [03:27] ablyss, i want to just stop the kids watching videos instead of doing homework [03:27] This is the kernel that just came out today. 2.6.31-21-generic [03:27] pokeh well the realtek driver is ALSA which is already installed on yout system, and even more so Ubuntu is using Pulse Audio now o-o [03:27] just upgraded, now im getting a wierd 'udev failed[XXXX]: /dev/null/ no such file or directory' then grub hangs, never got this in 9.10, any ideas? [03:27] ZykoticK9: i just used the one that came with virtualBox [03:27] How to register an account in this irc.freenode.net?

[03:28] Daijoubu: so that means that my sound quality is unfixable? I don't understand how it could sound so great in OS X, but sound so bad in Ubuntu [03:28] ablyss, i am looking into it [03:28] if I install side by side, will the installer know better than to touch my recovery partition? [03:28] Daijoubu: I see. [03:28] I'm guessing nobody here has much experience at installing Ubuntu on a Mac..? I've been at it for ages, and I can't figure it out :( [03:28] Is something wrong with the latest kernel header package, or am I doing something wrong? [03:28] Twiple: make your recovery discs first [03:29] __dantheman, Internal Audio Digital Stereo (IEC958) Stereo [03:29] dos000_: your kids worse nightmare, lol [03:29] Twiple: just in case [03:29] I'm assuming that Hardy has reached EOL time?

[03:46] !final > rolsworth [03:46] okay i held shift during the turn on [03:46] rolsworth, please see my private message [03:46] GRUB did not come up at all [03:46] <__dantheman> z3ro3x: ubuntu uses pulseaudio but alsa does the real work [03:46] ZykoticK9: Thanks. === Semitones is now known as SemiYoMama [03:46] ok thnx [03:46] okay, wtf [03:46] Voss749: I had it in a vm. That was probably it. I remember jumping through hoops for 9.04, and can't remember what I did. [03:46] say can someone please kind enough to open synaptic and search for the word, 'atheros' and let me know if there is a driver named that? [03:46] z3ro3x, well, I haven't had to use alsamixer either... but it's pretty. [03:46] ridz16: i heard ailurus can help with a bunch off stuff that isnt the easiest task for a newer user....i heard it will help with grub too [03:46] <__dantheman> atheros is a wireless adaptor [03:47] __dantheman, And I used KDE when I was on SUSE. Not only did I have to get used to a new distro but also a new desktop environment. [03:47] hey does anyone know how to unlock the upper panel in the netbook remix, please tell me. XD driving me crazy [03:47] i thought they were going to make a change to the notification area [03:47] http://code.google.com/p/ailurus [03:47] <__dantheman> the driver should be ath5k for 802.11b/g or ath9k for 802.11n [03:47] __dantheman: there is also a Atheros ethernet too [03:47] <__dantheman> ahh, I stand informed :) [03:47] @Goosey_ i think i had the same problem (in Fedora), just add the line yourself [03:48] z3ro3x: suse is working great on gnome :) [03:48] Barridus_: if it's the same as the desktop verison, just hold alt, click on it, and drag. If it's not... good luck. [03:48] Barridus_, i've tried - in Ubuntu UNE you really can't by default. I've looked into potentially using a gconf setting to unlock it - but haven't found a working method yet. Good luck though. I believe the KDE UNE doesn't suffer this issue. [03:48] <__dantheman> z3ro3x: never used KDE before [03:48] vicsar, Sorry, but I am not sure what line to add? [03:48] how do i go about installing ubuntu on a computer with an nvidia display driver? [03:48] is there a official channel for 10.04 support or is it here also? [03:48] Any horror stories about 9.10 going to 10.04? [03:48] <__dantheman> aside from a quick time on KDEmod for Arch [03:48] so.... if the grub loader isn't coming up should i delete the two partitions that ubuntu 10.04 created and try to install it again? [03:48] mons: this is it [03:48] mons: dont know yet. i wonder too [03:48] mmk [03:48] __dantheman: I need someone to search the names in Synaptic because I'm on the URL for the /pool and I can't find it, I need to download it [03:48] mons: unfortunately i think this is it [03:49] http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/ [03:49] ashi: this is it [03:49] Why does Nickserv keep saying password invalid when its correct in network connections? === jwulf is now known as jwulf_afk [03:49] ZykoticK9, ok then. i did try KDE UNE and it was buggy as heck [03:49] ah [03:49] RandyOrt: I wouldn't. Grub can be restored. I'll have to look around to get you a tutorial on that though. [03:49] <__dantheman> Xgates: ok, hold on [03:49] xrandr isnt working! [03:49] mons, +1 channel closed today, so 10.04 lucid is now supported in the main channel [03:49] thanks [03:49] ashi, I switched to Ubuntu mostly because of the community support it gets. I Kubuntu but it didn't feel as stable or polished as it did on SUSE so I tried Gnome and stayed on it ever since. [03:49] slw: ah... okay thanks :) [03:49] ok so i updated to 10.04 via update manager and when i boot now, nothing happens but a blank black screen, any ideas? [03:49] How do I disable the recent ntfs harddrive mounting changes [03:49] Barridus_, i don't do KDE stuff, so i never even downloaded it [03:50] anyone get dual monitors working with radeon driver? [03:50] ripps, what are these changes you talk about? [03:50] hey guys, everytime i try to install a new package i get this error 'E: Couldn't configure pre-depend libc6 for findutils, probably a dependency cycle.' .. anyone know what this is? [03:50] Flames aside for now, I'm looking for a way to edit Windows registry information using Regedit from WINE. [03:50] @Goosey_ i am sorry i misunderstood the question. let me see if can find something to help you. if anyone else knows the answer please be my guest [03:50] Why does Nickserv keep saying password invalid when its correct in xchat network connections? [03:50] if weve been using the lucid rc how should we upgrade to the full version? [03:50] are people experiencing any major issues with Lucid? [03:50] mons: check your grub make sure it is going to the right kernel [03:50] perscitus, perhaps go to #freenode [03:50] I am not 100% sure I want to update my systems yet [03:50] i made a boo boo [03:50] vocx: it now forces mounting of ntfs drives at boot, unfortunately it forces me to keep my extrenal harddisk connected and it breaks my nautilus bookmarks [03:50] vocx.-> not freenode issue [03:51] Running normally, it opens its fake registry; the one put in place to get most Windows programs to run [03:51] vocx.-> its xchat issue thats in lucid. frakin bug [03:51] zetheroo, wait a week, a month, what makes you feel secure [03:51] RandyOrt: You can try this: http://www.ubuntu-inside.me/2009/06/howto-recover-grub2-after-windows.html [03:51] I need it to edit the registry from the partition on which it is run... [03:51] zeth, I am ...when i mention ubuntu 10.04 womens eyes glaze over ;-) [03:51] RandyOrt: though if you're more comfortable with just reinstalling, go ahead an do that I guess. [03:51] mons, i'd recommend you start a live cd and try reinstalling grub if you get no error at all -- i'm gonna pm you the grub2 factoid which explains the booting/chrooting stuff - and grub2 will automatically try to install the kernel stuff. Good luck man. [03:51] williedapimp, i dont think grub is even showing up when i boot [03:51] !grub2 > mons [03:51] mons, please see my private message [03:51] voss749: haha [03:51] even through ubuntu lucid is new, should I enable proposed (testing) and backports? [03:51] hi guys [03:51] Hi, I'm trying to use Synaptic, but I get this error: The repository may no longer be available or could not be contacted because of network problems. If available an older version of the failed index will be used. Otherwise the repository will be ignored. Check your network connection and ensure the repository address in the preferences is correct. [03:51] intangir, It's essentially the same. Before doing a fresh install of the final release I didn't get any updates on the 29th when I was running the RC. [03:52] Why does Nickserv keep saying password invalid when its correct in xchat network connections? [03:52] :/ === funkyWhat is now known as funkyHat [03:52] ripps, do you have entries for them in /etc/fstab? [03:52] how are people liking the new Ubuntu look? [03:52] karl, are you using Lucid? [03:52] mons: it should come up with a 3 sec. count down it says you gotta press a button to enter the grub menu...i think it is esc but not positive [03:52] Notify OSD: is it possible to have OSX like feature of clicking on a notification bubble (such as an IM) and the window focus change to the owner of the notification? [03:52] I have been using Lucid since Beta 1 and doing the updates daily - So would this install be any different than if I downloaded and the Final Release and installed it new ? ? [03:52] perscitus: #freenode should be able to help with that [03:52] vocx: yeah, I just noticed that. Why would ubuntu add an external harddisk to my fstab? that's just dumb [03:52] ZykoticK9, yes. [03:52] !final > mxe5 [03:52] mxe5, please see my private message [03:52] IdleOne.-> its NOT FREENODE ISSUE [03:53] say does anyone know on the pool URL http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/ where atheros drivers would be found? [03:53] how can I see if I am running 9.10? [03:53] ripps, maybe you had that connected during the install, upgrade, so it add it. [03:53] is lucid here now? [03:53] zetheroo, It's nice. The buttons took some getting used to. It's mostly muscle memory. I kept finding my self going to the right with my mouse. It took a few days to adapt. [03:53] perscitus: nickserv is giving you a response that is not what you expect. it is a freenode issue [03:53] does Lucid give you an error on bootup? for me a dialog box shows saying, some error occurred and click OK to continue the process and diagnose the error? [03:53] <__dantheman> dont see anything in synaptic for atheros [03:53] IdleOne.-> IT IS NOT FREENODE ISSUE [03:53] perscitus: assuming you have your client setup properly [03:53] karl, update? i'm guessing. Try going the system / admin / software sources - and see if anything looks suspicious, try unchecking (but not removing) any PPA or Repository that could be causing an issue. Good luck.

[03:53] z3ro3x: ok .. as expected i suppose [03:54] tp43: system > about ubuntu [03:54] perscitus: what is the problem?

It was still accessible on the local network though. All other services are stopping when hit externally as well (ping, ssh, etc). Router is still forwarding ports though.

[04:00] tmukmkd, so try the cd [04:00] <__dantheman> ya [04:01] I have a Java popup window that is exceeding the length of my desktop I do not seem to be able to resize it thought I need to see what options are available but they are not visible any idea how I might be able to see them?

[04:01] hmm, it is [04:01] aha [04:01] man if this upgrade borks my custom install im gonna be mad [04:01] makkura, I would double-check your machine's local IP and confirm it in the router to ensure the ports are being forwarded correctly to the router. [04:01] can someone give a hand with mdadm, i'm not sure wtf happened [04:01] *from the router. [04:01] So what versions of virtualbox guest additions supports USB for lucid?

[04:02] Does anybody know about MySQL Query Browser?

[04:02] does anyone recognize the domain anywise.com? [04:02] microhaxo, if you're having problem with USB with Lucid see my notes from (this was during alpha lucid mind you, things may have changed) http://sites.google.com/site/alucidfs/how-i-do/virtualbox [04:03] WillieDaPimp, well of course. How many changes to your desktop have you made? [04:03] mons: when u get to the purple screen press any key and go thru F4 or F6 options and select "nomodset" [04:03] can you install linux in windows now? when did this happen [04:03] vocx: heh...i always install from the ubuntu server cd and then just pull in the packages i want [04:03] ZykoticK9: i'm not having problems but you told me that the ose-guest-x11 doesn't support usb and that is an important part of how i transfer files to the virtual install. [04:04] rolsworth, wubi or virtualbox are 2 ways [04:04] yea i saw wubi [04:04] microhaxo, you still haven't told me what HOST you are running, or what version of VBox you are using - detail help. [04:04] vocx: ive got a minimal setup with e17 and bunch of cli apps [04:04] amereservant: Checked the router and the IP. It's set statically to avoid some of those issues and is correct. The only odd thing that doesn't match up with, say my ISP blocking it, is that my Apache service on restart started saying: could not reliably dtermine the server's fully qualifed domain name, using 127.0.0.1 for ServerName which seemed to resolve when I set ServerName in the apache2.conf file [04:04] it said it was installing but instead it is downloading a torrent [04:04] WillieDaPimp, and you don't have Gnome? I guess you could update with the alternate CD, or maybe eve the sever CD and do the same. [04:04] microhaxo: if you DL the actualy vbox install from the site, it supports USB [04:04] __dantheman: you can't find Atheros in Synaptic? [04:04] after installing nvidia drivers my usplash resolution got huge where is this file located to change res? [04:05] <__dantheman> didn't see it in there [04:05] ZykoticK9: host is windows 7, latest virtualbox [04:05] my computer is running in low-graphics mode after trying to install a new driver, can anyone help? [04:05] <__dantheman> what ehternet chip is it? [04:05] vbox OSE does not support USB, need to dl the actual full setup from the website [04:05] vocx: NO gnome is bloated too much for me....i like a minimal setup [04:05] devin: you can't I don't think [04:05] microhaxo, you should be asking in #vbox as that is where the issue really lies. good luck man, i'm sorry i'd actually forgotten it was you asking about it before, thought it was a new question :) [04:06] __dantheman: AR8132 [04:06] makkura, That's a common error and doesn't have anything to do with your issue. [04:06] WillieDaPimp, then maybe Ubuntu is not for you. Ubuntu is for humans, not command line geeks... just joking [04:06] Does anyone run Netbeans under ubuntu? [04:06] does anyone here work on documentation? I'm going to redo the install from usb page and was wondering if i can just make it for the 10.04 release, or should i have both, the directions haven't been acurate since 9.04 [04:06] what are the advantages of using an alternate install cd, and where can i learn more about it? [04:06] ZykoticK9: Thanks, i'll ask them. [04:06] can someone help me with a raid5? i may have killed it :( [04:06] makkura, And that IS how you fix that error. [04:06] hello it is me again. i am trying to disable the buttons on my touchpad but seem unable to. is there any way of doing this because if i can't, i can't really use linux :/ [04:06] hmm that didnt work pressing f4 or f6 didnt do anything [04:06] emergion, like a million people, check ubuntuforums.org, the programming talk, [04:06] __dantheman: so in the search box in Synaptic if you type in atheros nothing shows up? [04:06] WillieDaPimp: personally, I keep gnome installed but create my own desktop session for GDM. Alternately, there's always arch linux... they love this kind of thing. [04:06] <__dantheman> correct [04:06] ok [04:06] makkura, Does that box have external internet access at all? [04:06] vocx: hehe....yea but it is the norm....so i use it with a custom setup [04:06] amereservant: ahh.. I recall seeing it before and had thought I resolved it previously so it surprised me I saw it again. Thought the config file may have been reset somewhere but since the issue is across services. [04:06] WillieDaPimp: I tried out geubuntu or whatever its called. looked neat, but it was a bit of a mess to configure, so I gave up [04:06] my computer is running in low-graphics mode after trying to install a new driver, can anyone help? [04:07] google is still main search engine? not yahoo? [04:07] amereservant: Yeah it does, it can surf, ping, download, etc. [04:07] why is wubi downloading a torrent? [04:07] mons: when u get to the purple screen with the keyboard at the bottom, press any key to bring up the menu, then hit f4 for that menu and select "nomodset" === SemiYoMama is now known as Semitones [04:07] I wonder where the drivers are coming from, hmm maybe I need to lsmod [04:07] hola [04:07] buttons840, the alt cd is Text only install - and supports more hardware, gives more control over the install i believe. i've never used one myself. [04:07] alguien me puede [04:07] ChogyDan: heh, i think i might convert back to debian with a custom setup, the configuration part for me is a breeze [04:07] ayudar [04:07] where it says "try ubuntu/install ubuntu" etc [04:07] !es > ivan__ [04:07] ivan__, please see my private message [04:07] Hello everybody; I am having trouble getting my wireless card (realtek 8192SE) to pick up my WPA network, although my Win7 partition will find and connect to it without problems.

[04:08] slw: yea, ive thought about going back to arch, i've thought about going back to gentoo, but i think ill end up back with a vanilla debian install [04:08] <__dantheman> Xgates: so your wired? [04:08] is there a reason the 10.04 firefox logo is blue surrounding mars [04:09] Anyone can tell me where is the source.list file? [04:09] I didn't an alternate iso install just to install the base system, how can I configure my ethernet, there seems to be a mod for it, but I'm not connected [04:09] /etc/apt/sources.list [04:09] can u get to where u select the language [04:09] xfact: /etc/apt/sources.list [04:09] __dantheman: yeah I have a cat5 plugged in [04:09] WillieDaPimp, Thankyou [04:09] msmooth no [04:09] xfact: np [04:09] <__dantheman> ok [04:09] Well that sucks, vbox says no vbox additions support 10.04.. :| [04:09] <__dantheman> if you type ifconfig does eth0 show up? [04:10] WillieDaPimp: the only reaons I'm not on debian is the ppa's... [04:10] if u can't get to the purple screen id say either bad media/ or cd drive [04:10] Sir_Fawnpug, are you able to connect to non-encrypted networks ok? [04:10] Hi there. How do I change the login theme in 10.04 ? [04:10] __dantheman: no, let me check /etc/network/interfaces [04:10] slw: yea...that has alot to do with why im using a custom ubuntu install too [04:10] double check your bios also [04:11] <__dantheman> so you only see lo? [04:11] ok [04:11] __dantheman: yeah only lo [04:11] ZykoticK9, yes. And I am also able to see some networks. However, most of the networks available on Win7 are not visible here, even though I about 30 feet from the WAP [04:11] microhaxo, on a Lucid host with Lucid guests using the OSE version I have working 3d graphics, but no USB support [04:11] my computer is running in low-graphics mode after trying to install a new driver, can anyone help? [04:11] <__dantheman> ok so type ifconfig eth0 up [04:11] <__dantheman> as su [04:11] k [04:11] <__dantheman> then another ifconfig [04:12] ZykoticK9: so Absolutely no Thumb drives.. What about shared folders? I need to be able to transfer files somehow. [04:12] <__dantheman> tell me if eth0 shows up then [04:12] i can't install emacs http://paste.ubuntu.com/424975/ can anyone help me? [04:12] WHOA! I just saw where Canonical no loger provides support for abiword, libcompress-bzip2-perl, netcat-traditional, scim, and sreadahead...i wonder why [04:12] is it possible to just run the book setup in ubuntu by itself [04:12] Sir_Fawnpug, it's a poor driver/encryption issue - if you disable your encryption (or try researching another driver etc. - i've added you card to my research later pile) [04:12] will the 9.10 vbox onstall from virtualbox.org not work on 10.04? [04:12] __dantheman: yeah eth0 shows now, but no address [04:12] <__dantheman> ya, becuase you have to request one === richard is now known as Guest50219 [04:13] <__dantheman> I assume you use dhcp [04:13] yeah [04:13] <__dantheman> ok [04:13] <__dantheman> as su type [04:13] __dantheman: i thought ifup would help him with that [04:13] <__dantheman> dhcpcd eth0 === dansilva_ is now known as dansilva [04:13] ZykoticK9, well the driver seemed to work before the upgrade; I'm not sure exactly what changed (I did a clean install when I installed 10.04, althought I left my home partition intact) [04:13] microhaxo, nautilus / places / connect to server SSH - works awesome for me personally [04:13] run sudo dhcpcd eth0 [04:14] <__dantheman> dhcpcd will request all the info from your router [04:14] ZykoticK9: Alright, i'll install without usb support. [04:14] ZykoticK9: thanks [04:14] hello, i need help reassembling my RAID-1, the superblocks are missing so the device nodes for my partitions aren't being created [04:14] yeah I know I'm just rusty with some of my linux cmds ;/ [04:14] ZykoticK9, I will try temporarily disabling encryption though [04:14] microhaxo: does the install from virtualbox.org not work on 10.04? [04:14] <__dantheman> WillieDaPimp: probably, I'm just coming from arch so I'm used to the bare-bones approach [04:14] <__dantheman> :) [04:14] I just have to remeber the IP address for my WAP, haha [04:14] it has usb support [04:14] msmooth thr bios looks fine, and still it only boot to splash screen, and once it goes past there everything goes to black screen [04:15] <__dantheman> Xgates: what does it say after dhcpcd eth0 [04:15] __dantheman: ifup is pretty barebones...its on the LPIC Level 1 test [04:15] msmooth: No it doesn't It wont allow gnome to load. [04:15] <__dantheman> I'll have to look into it :) [04:15] Sir_Fawnpug, you probably want to search LaunchPad / Ubuntu / Bugs to see if there is anything card specific as well. disabling the encryption is a drag, but will probably work. Good luck. [04:15] mons: im not sure i had a similar problem, i eventually had to use an older monitor because my lcd display could not show the resolution of the setup screens [04:15] __dantheman: errr dhcpcd isn't installed, LOL, I'll have to download it online and then install it [04:16] ZykoticK9, will do. I am also noticing that all of the access poitns I can hit are channel 1 [04:16] i can't install emacs http://paste.ubuntu.com/424975/ can anyone help me? [04:16] Are source.gz files are so important in updates/upgrades? [04:16] hy [04:16] <__dantheman> hmm, theres another dhcp command === ahmed is now known as Guest45946 [04:16] msmooth thansk for the help [04:16] <__dantheman> I'm forgetting it off the top of my head [04:16] msmooth: Everything appears to load fine but once you login you get only the wallpaper, nothing else. [04:17] Hm. I can't seem to have any updates (I had RC) [04:17] __dantheman, "sudo dhclient eth0" === Guest50219 is now known as sanguinepenguinx [04:17] hi all [04:17] <__dantheman> maybe dhclient [04:17] Is there any way to access files on an ext4 partition from Windows? [04:17] Some_Person: No. [04:17] does anyone know if there is an irc for rhythmbox? [04:17] <__dantheman> ya... ^ what he said [04:17] ZykoticK9, changing the channel seemed to work [04:17] hello, i was just wondering, does anyone here know how to change the icon next to Applications from the ubuntu logo to the gnome foot? in 10.04? [04:17] iam trying to burn this iso image..is it disk-at once..at 8x [04:17] ok how make sure i got all up to date installed lynx when was RC [04:17] Source files are so important for updates and upgrades? [04:17] Sir_Fawnpug, nice :) [04:17] Xgates: can you even see your ethernet card? check lspci [04:17] i did it t 32x and i cant intall it [04:18] ZykoticK9, still, the channel I was using was channel 11, so I suppose I should file a bug report [04:18] BRc: Burn at lowest speed possible. And yah disk-at-once [04:18] wasted 3 dkisks [04:18] wow they made ubuntu 10.04 look so bad its disappointing [04:18] Some_Person: I haven't tried this, but: http://www.soluvas.com/read-browse-explore-open-ext2-ext3-ext4-partition-filesystem-from-windows-7/ [04:18] randal: huh? [04:18] theadmin: I remember reading a while back about a program that gives you read-only access [04:18] Xgates, it might be easier to use "lspci | grep -i ethernet" [04:18] randal: It looks awesome [04:18] Or better yet, have a look a the driver code [04:18] :( [04:18] i just dont want the ubuntu icon, i want the gnome foot [04:18] Some_Person: There is one, for ext2 [04:18] in my applications menu [04:19] so how is 10.04 any good? [04:19] ok how make sure i got all up to date installed lynx when was RC [04:19] slw: That only works if you reformat and disable extents [04:19] Sir_Fawnpug, just see if anyone else with your card has already filed a bug. origional bugs are hard to find ;) [04:19] ZykoticK9: thanks sudo dhclient eth0 got me up and running, but when I ran that it said that /etc/resolv.conf no such file [04:19] so how's lucid lynx working for people so far? [04:19] seems that no one knows how to do it [04:19] Nice and fast :) [04:19] can i install this version using daemon tools and mounting iso? [04:19] theadmin, to many bugs and purple and the login screen is terable [04:19] majnoon: If you updated it now and then, you DO have final one [04:19] i cant find anything online [04:19] <__dantheman> xgates, so your online now? [04:19] anyone having trouble with gwibber and updating twitter? I worked a few days ago, and sometime recently updates won't go through anymore. [04:19] lucid is working great. boot time is amazing [04:19] randal: uuuh... None here. [04:19] yes lucid is good [04:19] !ot [04:19] #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! [04:19] any one like 10.04 lts?? [04:19] Qiller: Kind of yes, you can use WUBI [04:19] hdpb: they still didnt hit the 10 sec boot time [04:20] I love lucid [04:20] Xgates, something is a little weird with your network setup/setting/system [04:20] BRc: Awesome :D [04:20] __dantheman: yeah sudo dhclient eth0 got me up and running, but when I ran that it said that /etc/resolv.conf no such file [04:20] theadmin, im going to stay with 9.10 its runs smoother for me [04:20] The_Jorge: what you looking for? [04:20] yah ok..cant wat then theadmin [04:20] gsp2009: i just want the ubuntu icon in the applications icon to change to the ordinary gnome foot [04:20] BRc: what [04:20] Folks, are there any pointers on changing the login theme in 10.04 ? [04:20] l0uis: gdm2setup [04:20] BRc, Its Disgusting im so disapointed [04:21] WillieDaPimp: no, but i'll take it... and i'm growing to love window controls on the "wrong" side [04:21] Ok guys if I finally make the switch to a 64bit installation, Adobe Flash 10.1 RC2 works out of the box and works just as well as 32bit version, and java plugin is in the ubuntu repos for 64bit as well? No jerry-rigging to get them working? [04:21] jbuncher, i have actually notice a few update issues with gwibber over the last few days... you're not alone. [04:21] ZykoticK9: well I did an expert install of the alternate iso so that only just installed a base and I didn't seem to have nic support then but maybe it is working during the install and from the cmd I can get it up and on and configured [04:21] really?? randal [04:21] why [04:21] theadmin thank sir! more can i install mouting iso? if i dont use WUBI ? [04:21] The_Jorge: brb... got it bookmarked [04:21] randal, how come [04:21] thanks [04:21] ZykoticK9, that's good, because I thought I was crazy. It was working fine for a while, then it just seemed to stop. [04:21] <__dantheman> LinuxGuy2009: 10.1 isn't out for x64 linux [04:21] Qiller: WUBI is a Windows-based installer for Ubuntu. If you just mount the ISO, you can only use that. You haz to burn for a normal install. [04:21] BRc, the login screen sucks the older one was way better and the nivida bugs are insane and im not the only one comeing accros this [04:21] hdpb: i dont have to worry about the mac wanna be window controls i use e17 not gnome [04:21] hello, i'm trying to instaall lucid on a pentium 4 Dell. when i use a livecd, all i get is a flashing white cursor? [04:22] randal: there are ways to customise the login screen [04:22] theadmin aah, ok ^^ [04:22] omy ive got ATi cards , randal === dmar198 is now known as dmar [04:22] Qiller: You can also put the Ubuntu installer on a flash drive [04:22] The_Jorge, how do you do that i thought they removed that feature [04:22] Xgates, sorry man i can't help with that - i've only ever used the livecd for installs -- but your probably missing some network stuff... or settings. good luck. [04:22] Jordan_U yes! ^^ [04:22] __dantheman: Your right I forgot to narrow the search down for linux. My bad. But still is there 64bit flash that works without editing or nonsense like that? [04:22] Hm. VLC seems to be buggy in Lucid :/ it chews my music for a while after starting [04:22] randal: i am sure it has to be done from the terminal [04:23] <__dantheman> yep [04:23] randal: people here can tell you [04:23] <__dantheman> LinuxGuy2009: you just download it from adobe [04:23] The_Jorge, I guess ill have to reserch in to that [04:23] does anyone know how to get HDMI audio working with an intel card? [04:23] ZykoticK9: yeah no worries at least now I see there is a mod loaded so I'll try the install over this time at the cmd trying to load it and see how it goes THANKS [04:23] <__dantheman> and place it into the appropriate plugins directory [04:23] have a lenevo laptop - core2duo - 2GB, 250GB - my microprocessor is only 32 bit - can i install 10.04 (64 bit version) [04:23] __dantheman: Ok I guess Ill finally switch then. Thank you! [04:23] is there a way to change the login screen? [04:23] <__dantheman> works really well [04:23] Atamisk: Do you see anything before that (other than the BIOS screen)? [04:23] FiReSTaRT: Google "gdm2setup" [04:23] Atamisk: And can that machine boot other CDs? [04:23] <__dantheman> calmsiva: i'm pretty sure that every c2d is 64 capable [04:24] so ur telling this version has tooo many bugs [04:24] <__dantheman> unless the mobile version is not really a c2d [04:24] <__dantheman> brb [04:24] dantheman : thanks - how do i check this out [04:24] BRc: Any version has bugs, all depends on hardware [04:24] <__dantheman> are you running windows? [04:24] holy freaking shit man, i was trying to install a package, it required 100megs, 78 packages, i was on the 78th freaking package after 30 minutes at this ridiculously slow download speed.. and my damn power goes out [04:24] now i gotta start all over [04:24] intangir: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [04:24] Jordan_U, no, and i haven't tried any other cd's [04:24] theadmin: The 'Theme' tab is greyed out. Guess I can't load themes from http://art.gnome.org/themes/? [04:24] the latest 64bit flash version is 10.0.45.2-1 afaik at this point. it works just fine....as far as it goes. fullscreen is still a bit dodgy on frame rate. [04:24] It's a LTS so it should, technically, have less bugs then previous releases, BRc. [04:24] l0uis: It will be able to sometime soon. [04:24] intangir: The packages that were already downloaded are saved [04:24] intangir, use a different mirror [04:25] ill find out soon [04:25] Jordan_U: how do i make apt use them [04:25] l0uis: So far you can only change the background [04:25] oh wait i think it is [04:25] intangir: It's automatig [04:25] it only downloaded 3 this time [04:25] thoughti t was starting over [04:25] theadmin: I see, ok. Thanks. [04:25] Is Ubuntu One worth it? [04:25] theadmin: hahaha....ive found that to be completely opposite with most LTS releases [04:25] k good call thx guys [04:25] Twiple, short answer: YES, hell-b-yes. [04:25] ok then [04:25] :D [04:25] this is linux after all... most distros require at least SOME tweaking outside of the box to be bug-free with any given hardware set up... i had to tweak the sound card driver settings some.. [04:26] Jordan_U, and i can get the menu to show if i hit f2 [04:26] thanks theadmin... installing it as we speak.. i can't believe they left it out of the release lol [04:26] WillieDaPimp: 8.04 was deffinitely a buggy release === spvensko_ is now known as blah1 [04:26] I've somehow managed to f up my taskbar and main app panel.. taskbar is invisible or offscreen but can see window tooltips if I hover. Some way to reset panels to default positions? :\ [04:26] and i see the assistive tech icon before it panics === blah1 is now known as blah2 [04:26] !resetpanel | sipher [04:26] sipher: To reset the panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » === blah2 is now known as spvensko_ [04:26] now if I could get a package of ubuntu one for arch...pig heaven over here. :D [04:26] is there a channel for Ubuntu netbook edition? [04:26] thx [04:26] markatto: all LTS releases usually are...but Ubuntu redeems itself with the release directly after the LTS [04:26] Atamisk: Ok, can you remove "quiet" and "splash" from the kernel parameters? [04:27] how, it's a livecd? === spvensko_ is now known as blah3 [04:27] i mean try using an OS like Redhat... you'll have to do a lot more tweaking === LucidGUI is now known as evilGUI [04:27] darius_, not specific for UNE - only this one [04:27] k [04:27] Hi.

[04:27] hi in system administration login screen i can read teh text with orca and see unlock and close button but cant choose the settings now. i could read this before, whats the app called so i can try o reinstall it? is it login? [04:27] do i do-release-upgrade to go from beta to the official lucid release? [04:27] or will that take me to some new super-alpha testing branch [04:27] Atamisk: There is a boot menu that allows you to change the options if you press a key early in boot, I thought that was what you were referring to. [04:27] god, i want to change my freenode account password. doesn't there any command to do this?

[04:29] greetings [04:29] well the keyboard works haha [04:29] Atamisk: By pressing any key in the first few (5?) seconds of boot, from your description I don't think you're getting even that far though. [04:29] theadmin: hehe [04:30] :/ [04:30] Jordan_U, i dont think so, just to the initial menu (Try it, install, options, etc.,) [04:30] ZykoticK9: Huh, well even the virtualbox-ose-guest-x11 has the no gnome loading problem :| It loads into a blank screen of just wallpaper after reboot. [04:30] Hi, there, Can anyone explain to me, how do I download files from SSH to my local pc? [04:30] #perl [04:30] Atamisk: That's the menu I'm talking about [04:30] Does the System->Admin->Startup Disk Creator only work with buntu ISO and CDs only? Or does it also work with other distro disks? [04:30] Elsewise, use scp [04:30] So, is there anyway to remove/autoclean/disable/whatever the "Recent documents" thing?

I am thinking that you need to change the icon in /usr/share/icons/THEME/apps [04:33] calmsiva: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/downloadmirrors#bt [04:33] Moral_: You're welcome, took me a while to notice also :) [04:33] xangua : just went to site, but i dont know where to find it [04:34] theadmin, yeah but for his purpose it would be just fine to explain it that way, then: man chown === brianherman_ is now known as brianherman [04:34] Need help with reinstalling a broken package. [04:34] is it just me, or is the Pidgin system tray icon ugly in 10.04? [04:34] cual es el canal en español [04:34] theadmin, but i agree teach it right the first time :P [04:34] !es | ivan__ [04:34] ivan__: 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. [04:34] there appears to be a non-transparent background on the icon [04:34] slw : do i type this in the bit torrent / or in this channel [04:34] jikuty: just you. [04:34] !es > ivan__ [04:34] ivan__, please see my private message [04:34] !torrents > calmsiva [04:34] calmsiva, please see my private message [04:34] hungnv, there might be a replacement for the gnome-volume-applet [04:34] !lucid [04:34] Ubuntu 10.04 (Lucid Lynx) is the current release of Ubuntu. Download http://releases.ubuntu.com/10.04/ - Release Info: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/1004 [04:34] theadmin: it looks just like it used to in 9.10 for you? [04:34] jikuty: you can disable the notification icon and pidgin will use the indicator applet [04:34] jikuty: Yeah [04:34] calmsiva: open that link in your browser. [04:34] hungnv, which version of ubuntu? [04:35] mortici: which pakage, please [04:35] ivan__: I think the idea is to use the "me menu" for all IM clients (though I don't use it myself) [04:35] 9.10 karmic :) [04:35] Jordan_U, i turned quiet and splash off, but still got no joy. [04:35] using 10.04, can't get flash plugin to work. [04:35] theadmin, xangua: the problem is, if i disable the icon in the systray, when i close Pidgin's window (hit the X button), the client actually CLOSES instead of minimizes to tray! [04:35] Jordan_U: I don't think so, it ain't working with Pidgin [04:35] extremely annoying. [04:35] * gsp2009 loves Lucid [04:35] Atamisk: How much RAM do you have? [04:35] gsp2009: did you find that booklmark? [04:35] jikuty, i have the same issue [04:35] new2ubuntu, what browser? what architecture? what version of flash? [04:35] Jordan_U, a gig... [04:36] hungnv, im not sure as i don't know which version of Ubuntu your running. [04:36] KruyKaze: maybe re-installing it will help? i think i might try that. [04:36] What firewall does ubuntu server come with? or how do I enable port 1194? [04:36] firefox and chrome [04:36] george w bush using ubuntu is not the greatest advert :S [04:36] Hi people! where do you put a libflashplayer.so plugin downloaded from adobe? it was /usr/share/... smth but dont remember [04:36] jikuty, do you use the hotkeys plugin? [04:36] mortici: 9.10 karmic [04:36] FirstSgt: All ports are open by default [04:36] new2ubuntu: chrome is ultimately better [04:36] recently upgraded to 10.04 [04:36] slw : thanks - did that now, i think it is connected and started downloading [04:36] __dantheman: would it be difficult for you to get the ath9k module and upload it somewhere for me? [04:36] I'm retaining my /home partition and replacing 9.10 with 10.04. Does AptOnCD work reasonably well here? [04:36] hungnv, weird same as me and i don't seem to have a problem give me a min [04:36] mortici: but I think I kít can find right package to íntall [04:36] FirstSgt: However, port mentioned requires root priveleges to access. [04:36] The_Jorge: I didn't, but I am thinking that you have to change the icon in /usr/share/icons/THEME/apps [04:37] i have a computer 2 feet from it trying to connect to vpn server, I have the vpn (openvpn) running in debug and I see no conection requests, but the client keeps trying every 5 seconds with no response. [04:37] The_Jorge: I think it is called distributor-logo or something like that [04:37] recent upgrade to 10.04 has messed up my flash plugin. please help [04:37] new2ubuntu: Same here, reinstall it [04:37] new2ubuntu, have you reinstalled flashplugin-installer since upgrading? [04:37] KruyKaze: nope... i don't use any plugins [04:37] tried reinstalling [04:37] new2ubuntu: sudo apt-get --reinstall install flashplugin-installer [04:37] 0ok figured out the 'login screen' system menu item is running gdmsetup [04:38] hungnv, install gnome-media [04:38] this is awful [04:38] KruyKaze: except the one that employs libnotify for popups [04:38] i do not see gnome-volume-applet as a valid package in synaptic [04:38] mortici: I did [04:38] Atamisk: If it's a bootloader problem (since you don't seem to be getting to where the kernel can output anything) you may be able to work around it by using grub (on a flash drive / CD / floppy) instead of isolinux [04:38] "employs libnotify"...? ROFLWUT? [04:38] what's the different between flashplugin-installer and flashplugin-nonfree? any performance differences? [04:38] progre55: the "installer" one downloads it from Adobe [04:39] difference* [04:39] Jordan_U, can i use grub installed on the drive i want to install the new software on? [04:39] ubuntu 10.04 and i have problems with my camera [04:39] I've got an interesting problem. Perhaps someone can help me with it? [04:39] theadmin: tried reinstalling...unsuccessful [04:39] progre55: One package is just a dummy package pointing to the other [04:39] jikuty, got it i like to hide/show pidgin w/ hoetkeys and that only works when the tray icon is activated.it used to work w/out it before :/ [04:39] Quotes: just ask your question [04:39] oh I see [04:39] progre55: the installer one is the one you want [04:39] i'm using vaio built-in camera [04:39] hungnv, what happens when you run gnome-volume-control-applet [04:39] mortici: same here, but I think there is a package for it [04:39] mortici: no such command like this :) [04:39] Package is in a very bad inconsistent state - this is the error message [04:39] mortici, hungnv if this is lucid the package doesn't exist. volume is in indicator-applet [04:39] gsp: So, I find this very bizarre but Metacity compositing works, and in KDE, compiz works. However, in GNOME, compiz cannot be enabled. How is this possible? lol [04:40] new2ubuntu: hm. [04:40] KruyKaze: ah... i think i'll play with it some more [04:40] theadmin: I've downloaded a plugin version 10.1 rc2 from adobe for 64bit linux, but it's just one libflashplayer.so file. where do I put it? [04:40] Atamisk: If you can get grub on to it in the first place, yes. [04:40] ZykoticK9, he says hes in karmic [04:40] I'm on Xubuntu, and it's using 500 MB of memory, compared to regular Ubuntu with about 250 MB of memory. It's really slow. Why is this? [04:40] KruyKaze: i'll let you know if I figure anything out :) [04:40] <__dantheman> progre55: depends on what browser youre using [04:40] mortici, hungnv nevermind me then :) [04:40] jikuty, thx [04:40] hungnv, when you open a terminal and type gnome-volume what shows up? [04:40] ZykoticK9: :) [04:41] karl: you got somethign else running....xubuntu should use less ram than a gnome ubuntu install [04:41] Is anyone else unable to get their microphone working when they have a Creative X-Fi? [04:41] mortici: control and properties [04:41] no applet [04:41] i am using built-in camera and i have some problems finding it's divers [04:41] Quotes... huh? Can you elaborate? I am not very good with compositing, but someone may be able to help [04:41] hungnv, veryyyyy strange [04:41] __dantheman: mozilla, but I remember you could put it in some general place so that the other browsers would also use it.. [04:41] bluetooth working, no worries [04:41] whats the boot time of 10.04 ? [04:41] Atamisk: Unfortunately you'll have a problem if you are booting from an iso file on the disk you want to install to (and most BIOSs don't expose the CDROM drive to the bootloader unless you actually booted from that CD) [04:41] like 35 seconds [04:41] my laptop is sony vaio vgn-fz21e [04:41] WillieDaPimp, I have nothing else running. This is the default install and I just started up. [04:41] gsp: Compiz only works (for some reason) with Kubuntu (KDE), and won't work with Gnome. [04:41] mortici: me too ha ha [04:42] kaushal: Depends on the hardware, but they didn't make their target 10 seconds on the dell mini. [04:42] gsp: The extra desktop effects. I don't understand. lol [04:42] hungnv, [04:42] how do i enable nouveau drivers on lucid? [04:42] <__dantheman> it should be ~/.mozilla/plugins [04:42] KruyKaze: They're used by default [04:42] karl: and you have a new gnome ubuntu install that is using less ram then a new xubuntu install ? [04:42] mortici: yes [04:42] currently running ubuntu 10.04 [04:42] <__dantheman> or plugin rather [04:42] yeah, 10 seconds is a joke, three new computers, avg boot time = 20 seconds +/- 10 [04:42] does Gdesklet work with 10.04? I can't get it to work and on upgrade said something about skiping gnome and keeping current [04:42] hungnv, in synaptic search for gnome-media, right click it and select properties, then click the installed files tab scroll down to /usr/bin/ [04:42] shows latest version in about though [04:42] Jordan_U, it sais i'm using nvidia's [04:42] hungnv, and see if the applet is listed [04:43] sean_: supposedly it is supposed to get faster after a few reboots [04:43] Jordan_U, no, grub is on drive 1, and i want to boot an iso on drive2. install tgt is D1 [04:43] mortici: what if I dont have synaptics [04:43] KruyKaze: Then you installed nvidia's driver yourself, if you disable it nouveau will be used. [04:43] yeah, this is the *second on this cpu, so, cool, i'll look forward to that [04:43] hungnv: use aptitude [04:43] then in terminal do a sudo apt-get install synaptic [04:43] or use aptitude [04:43] WillieDaPimp, Well, my old Ubuntu install on 9.10 used half as much as the 10.04 Xubuntu install, which is currently using 500 MB. I actually had a similar problem before, but nobody was able to help me. My memory usage seems to be spiking up a lot lately and it's very worrying. [04:43] __dantheman: oh it was /usr/share/mozilla/extentions/ [04:43] mortici: ok, dont mind, I think I can figure out [04:43] how would I check to see if there is a firewall on my ubuntu-server? [04:43] anyone, what happened to alternate download locations ? one download link ONLY for canada? if i am wrong - link please :) [04:43] progre55: Well, here's what i haz: http://paste.ubuntu.com/424983/ [04:43] hungnv, also what version of gnome-media do you have installed? [04:44] Atamisk: Ok, that's doable then. Is it grub2 on drive 1 or grub legacy? [04:44] Hi, I just edited fstab to automatically mount an NTFS partition. in the console this directory looks sort of weird. lots of the subdirectories are in reverse fonts/colored... is that normal? [04:44] im having some dual screen issues [04:44] Jordan_U, the problem is that when i try to enable compiz it installs nvidia's [04:44] has anyone had Gdesklet to work on 10.04? [04:44] reverse fonts i mean like block color around the fonts [04:44] mortici: 2.26 [04:44] Jordan_U, whatever came with 9.10. GRUB2 i think [04:44] Jordan_U: I'm not sure it will go back to Nouveau. I was on the driver testing team, and that test always failed. [04:44] thats a bit dated, i have 2.28.1-0ubuntu1 [04:44] Jordan_U, hold shift on boot yes? [04:44] KruyKaze: Yes, because nouveau's 3D support is extremely experimental and not included in lucid. [04:44] Atamisk: Yes. [04:44] Jordan_U, okay, brb [04:45] mortici: I will update it to see if it works, 1 mn, thank :) [04:45] this it is ? http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download [04:45] !help [04:45] 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. :-) [04:45] Jordan_U, i see i was using the beta i could see nouveau in "drivers" list and it worked w/ compiz [04:45] Atamisk: You'll want to mark down how to boot from an iso with grub2 before you reboot... [04:45] but now it disapeared [04:45] karl: id be willing to bet its because the newer version has more going on in the background (usually these are supposed to make the OS more user freindly) i'd be willing to bet that a fresh 10.04 gnome ubuntu install uses more than your older version [04:45] JoeSomebody: you may want to consider torrenting, if possible. It was very fast for me. http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/downloadmirrors#bt [04:45] hungnv, no problem :) [04:45] hello folks. [04:45] ok [04:46] KruyKaze: someting they played with in the beta but that they wouldn't put into the stable release just yet [04:46] hi all, i'm on hp tx2000 tablet pc laptop. just fresh installed 10.04. upon first boot, after boot splash it cannot detect my display. failsafe graphics works but no normal boot. installed nvidia drivers and it didn't help. need assistance! [04:46] i can't find drivers for built-in camera for my vaio. I run obuntu 10.04 and my pc name is VGN-FZ21E [04:46] WillieDaPimp, What can I turn off to make it work just like it did before? [04:46] kevr: hiya [04:46] how's everyone doing tonight [04:46] theadmin: oh, thanks. well the one installed from the repos doesnt really work for me (lucid 64bit, neither worked on karmic 64bit), for instance the pause button doesnt work on youtube. So I've downloaded a beta version 10.1 plugin from labs.adobe.com and put it in /usr/share/mozilla/extentions/ and now it works like a charm :) [04:46] karl: heh...thats really according to what you are willing to do without [04:46] the lucid update is taking a while :P [04:46] thanks FiReSTaRT [04:47] kevr: lots of lucid update problems tonight [04:47] Atamisk: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1288604 [04:47] progre55: :) [04:47] WillieDaPimp, I can do without a lot of things, to be honest. What are some of the major new memory hogs? [04:47] join #emc === troopperi_ is now known as troopperi [04:47] Oops. [04:47] 9.10 is so goddamn slow for me, 10.04 was so much faster if it wasn't spazzing so bad [04:47] i get a graphics regression w/ every upgrade it seems but usually it gets fixed withinga couple of weeks [04:47] KruyKaze: i'll probably keep an eye on the driver and play around with the experimental versions just to see how they work :) [04:47] doesn't like my array :( [04:48] anyone knows why the ubuntulooks engine is not included in lucid? [04:48] =) [04:48] Can i bring Cube effect of desktop in my GNOME ? [04:48] yes [04:48] short answer? yes. [04:48] i can't find drivers for built-in camera for my vaio. I run obuntu 10.04 and my pc name is VGN-FZ21E [04:48] rajmahendra: sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager [04:48] ccsm [04:48] thank you [04:48] progre55, wasn't that for human theme? perhaps [04:48] Can one install the self install drivers from the nvidia site, or is that still not feasible? [04:48] can I ask a question that could be easily solved by googling? [04:49] ubottu skip [04:49] ejv: Yeah :D [04:49] ejv: if you really must [04:49] mortici, don't [04:49] (sarcasm) [04:49] :) [04:49] ZykoticK9, still a no go? [04:49] im having an issue spanning my dual monitors gosh [04:49] karl: not sure really...ive decided to wait to upgrade until the servers are being used a little less....some of it may be updates in the xfce dm or it could be other stuff....if you look in the administrative menu and select the services or whatever they call it now...may be startup apps or something then you can turn certain things off like bluetooth or anything else that you might not need [04:49] ZykoticK9: not sure, but I was using it for a theme I downloaded from ubuntu-looks.org, called SlicknesS [04:49] mortici, why would you want to? current is the same version as site! BUT they work. [04:49] WillieDaPimp, Okay, thanks. [04:49] ZykoticK9, just wondering :) [04:50] Hey during this install, it was taking a long time d/l some stuff and there was a nifty little "skip" button. Not one for waiting, I went ahead and clicked that. What was the implication of all of that? [04:50] mortici: just update. I will restart o check [04:50] i am having the HARDEST time trying to get quicktime to work in firefox [04:50] jhbuild doesn't work, it tries to download but just freezes for 15-20 minutes and then starts downloading again [04:50] anyone have any tips? [04:50] digital_1: No extra language support mostly [04:50] dig: probably skipped some cleanup stages [04:50] hungnv, sounds good :) === user_ is now known as Zas [04:50] digital_1: Probably was downloading some updates [04:50] StaticShock: quicktime¿¿ [04:50] karl: a good thing to always do is google 'how to make 'OS VERSION HERE' more lightweight...there are a ton of websites that explain how to turn different components off [04:50] It was going to take almost two hours [04:51] xangua: yeah, like the trailers on apple's site === Zas is now known as Zas1 [04:51] progre55, if it was from human you could try installing human-theme (or similar? - but I'm not sure they are related) [04:51] Will I eventually get updated? [04:51] i can't find drivers for built-in camera for my vaio. I run obuntu 10.04 and my pc name is VGN-FZ21E [04:51] Dig: most likely [04:51] StaticShock: have you already installed ubuntu-restricted-extras ¿ [04:51] sean_: thanks! [04:51] ZykoticK9: oki thanks, let me try.. [04:51] hey everyone. are the us servers just pounded today? cause apt is ridiculously slow/unstable for me... [04:51] xangua: let me check... [04:51] Hi all! Ubuntu 10.04 is great, I love it so much! My only gripe is that while booting, instead of a boot splash, I just get a black screen, although it boots fine and fast. Nothing show-stopping, but it would be nice to have a splash screen while booting. Any ideas why this would be? [04:52] dutch: apt worked for me [04:52] xangua: no. installing that now. is it relevant in some way? [04:52] dutch: Yes, you can try a local mirror and you *may* get better results. [04:52] Can osmeone tell me what the lucid applet is with the mail, ethernet and sound icon that's there by default is called? i removed it accidentally [04:52] StaticShock: yes; it installs flash player, fonts and audio/video Codecs [04:52] what's the package cryptsetup refers to? [04:52] xangua: okay. [04:52] Flynsarmy: notification area.... [04:53] hello....i can't find drivers for built-in camera for my vaio. I run obuntu 10.04 and my pc name is VGN-FZ21E. Can anyone help me? [04:53] or maybe indicator applet¿¿ [04:53] xangua, no, its an applet sitting in the notification area. i've still got notification area up there - its just a little mouse grabber thing [04:53] michaelxq: is your cammera supported¿ [04:53] !webcam [04:53] Instructions for using webcams with Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Webcam - Supported cams: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsMultimediaWebCameras [04:53] Every time there's a new ubuntu version, the repos get pounded and upgrades take forever. Is there any reason people haven't been moving towards apt-p2p? [04:53] xangua: is mplayer going to fall back to using those codecs? [04:53] xangua: i was trying to use the mplayer plugin for firefox [04:53] __dantheman: does Ubuntu have an ncurses gui to setup the network like Debian use to have, not sure they still have, use it [04:53] !cryptsetup [04:54] michaelxq: i was having some issues with that too on a similar computer [04:54] xangua: with 9.10 some instruction were given...i don;t know about 10.04 [04:54] slw: It's hard to setup and most people don't know about it would be my guess [04:54] If we downloaded the ISO tonight, why do we even need to get 'updates'? [04:54] StaticShock: mplayer doesn't use gstreamer; are you using mplayer plugin for the browser¿ [04:54] sean_: what was the solution? [04:54] /media/572C8DDF568B4261 is supposed to be the folder my windows partition is in, but that's Xed out, and now it's /media/572C8DDF568B4261_. This is creating problems with my music. Why is my normal folder Xed out? [04:55] Michaelxq: no luck as of yet... [04:55] !seen Pici [04:55] I have no seen command [04:55] mortici: same :( [04:55] sje46: Uh, it means you don't have write access there. [04:55] you guys mind id i ask a newb question? this is my second time using linux and first with ubuntu [04:55] guys, i've specified valid proxy in synaptic and network proxy (for user). it was updated packages successfully, but freezes when i try to update 9.10->10.04 [04:55] xangua, for future reference - it was the 'indicator' applet [04:55] Zas1: Yes? [04:55] anybody knows why there is no "3D windows" on "compizconfig settings manager" now? while rotation the cube, the windows were 3D.. [04:55] Flynsarmy: that's what i said [04:55] theadmin, what do you mean? [04:55] sean_: thanks for the tip [04:55] michaelxp, sorry bud, i'm working on it [04:55] hey is it possible to change the respository or w/e i download my stuff from, on my live cd i could download quickly, now i install the blasted ubuntu and its taking me ages just to install the video drivers and vlc.. why??? i dont understand why it is so slow! [04:55] cant get any sound to work. online/cds/dvds all produce nothing [04:55] Are there really updates from the release ISO up till this point? [04:56] frankie_, its your connection [04:56] (repeat) Hi all! Ubuntu 10.04 is great, I love it so much! My only gripe is that while booting, instead of a boot splash, I just get a black screen, although it boots fine and fast. Nothing show-stopping, but it would be nice to have a splash screen while booting. Any ideas why this would be? (Would installing the nvidia proprietary drivers fix the problem?) [04:56] progre55: 3D windows is probably in compiz-fusion-plugins-extra [04:56] sje46: please do "ls -lh /media | grep 572C8DDF568B4261" [04:56] progre55: that stuff changes constently it may be located in a different place in the settings manager [04:56] ubuntu release party [04:56] fail [04:56] StaticShock, are you using karmic or lucid? [04:56] sean_: i didn't meant nothing bad [04:56] hey everyone..I need some help in compiling a program [04:56] its #ubuntu-release-party [04:56] theadmin, before I do that, can I ask what that's suposed to do? [04:56] I have no idea ho to do it [04:56] xangua: yeah, i'm trying to use mplayer in firefox. [04:56] Jordan_U: oh yeah, might be.. let me install that [04:56] http://code.google.com/p/logkeys/wiki/Documentation#Installation this is the program I am trying ot install [04:56] kbar i dont understand! [04:56] ZykoticK9: i have no idea. what are those? [04:56] sje46: Just list contents of /media and find the 5910-whatever folder [04:56] frankie_: because everyone, not just you, are updating or downloading ubuntu from the servers [04:56] michaelxp, yeah its cool dude i just hate being stuck on problems so simple [04:56] sje46: Want to see what are it's permissions [04:56] frankie_, its because your internet connection is slow not because of the operating system [04:57] StaticShock: do you have also totem/movie player plugin installed¿¿ you can only use one at a time [04:57] theadmin, drwx------ 2 root root 4.0K 2010-04-29 16:33 572C8DDF568B4261 [04:57] drwx------ 1 sean sean 8.0K 2010-04-29 15:47 572C8DDF568B4261_ [04:57] kbar but from the live cd of ubuntu things downloaded quickly, why after i install it everything is slooow!! [04:57] if you have both installed none will work StaticShock [04:57] sean_ : makes two of us: :) [04:57] StaticShock, karmic i'm guessing ;) good luck man, it might be something to do with your mplayer plugin, as the Apple Trailers open with Totem plugin here. Good luck. [04:57] xangua: oh, interesting. [04:57] frankie_, that's even more reason to believe your internet is slow. obviously if your liveCD is faster, your internet is sloe [04:58] sje46: I see. "sudo chown -R sean:sean /media/572C8DDF568B4261/" should fix that [04:58] ZykoticK9: is it sufficient to "apt-get remove totem" [04:58] how fast is Lucid downloading for ppl? [04:58] frankie_, consider investing in a better internet connection [04:58] torrent = hella fast [04:58] zetheroo, are you using bittorrent? [04:58] theadmin: thanks [04:58] ZykoticK9: i'm on jaunty [04:58] zetheroo: the torrents are off the charts.. using the ubuntu server is sluggish [04:58] kbar: no ... [04:58] antonio_: I hope that you are warning your users that you are logging all of their keystrokes... [04:58] download the official release via torrent [04:58] nah... my local university mirror 1 hop away = hella fast [04:58] ;) [04:58] bastid_raZor: ok I see [04:58] StaticShock, ask xangua he seems to know about the multi-install thing [04:58] kbar i have 6mbs or something it is fast, i downloaded ubuntu quicker from utorrent than it is taking me to download VLC [04:59] bah this sux can't load anything from apt now [04:59] theadmin, I can now enter that folder...thanks. Let me restart my computer to see if it's totally fixed [04:59] zetheroo, there's your problem. bittorrent is mad fast. ubuntu servers are clogged [04:59] digital_1, using apt will probably take forever but downloading the ISO via torrent is hella fast [04:59] zetheroo: process took about 2 hours in total [04:59] frankie_, the repositories are probably clogged becfause of people updating. that's why torrent is much faster than dl'ing from ubuntu's repositories [04:59] digital_1: welcome to launch day lol where everything thinks they gotta update on the same day [05:00] frankie_: maybe the repos are a little taxed right now. Wait a few days, it'll probably clear up.

Just can't load my software from the repos [05:00] Are there any 32bit deb packages for Cinelerra 4.1 ? [05:00] kbar ok that makes sense. i playted with the livecd before the new one came out so maybe i was bit unfortunate in my timing :) [05:00] Any way to make ls print permissions the normal way? As in, 740, not rwxr----- [05:00] digital_1, you mean you have the ISO, you just can't update using apt-get?

Need to keep those system requirements down... [05:01] Fellas - to remove the mail icon from indicator applet uninstall the 'indicator-messages' package [05:01] 大丈夫 ~ where u at? [05:02] <|Avi|> why is the term called spinning an iso? there is no motion involed [05:02] then remove and readd the applet [05:02] Hi all [05:02] bastid_raZor wow thanks how didn't i think of that before ... lol [05:02] i kind of liked my custom setup theme in karmic better than lucid... hmm [05:02] sam204475: This is an english channel. [05:02] Daijoubu: good luck [05:02] hi, upon first boot lucid cannot detect my laptop screen, please help!!? [05:02] Hey guys, this isn't an issue per say, more like a want for conveniance.. Anyway, when I right-click in Nautilus and create a new file, I have no "templates" so I just create an empty file. I'm writing a new LaTeX paper each week at the moment, and I would like it if I could set up a template document for such (rather then just copying/pasting the relevant sections over), it's only going to save a few seconds at best, but it would be rat [05:02] -___-'' === ubuntu is now known as anishseth [05:02] i am trying tro create image of a ntfs formatted hard disk using ntfsclone [05:03] bastid_raZor, how long do you suggest for me to wait before I try to upgrade ? [05:03] chu_, what version of ubuntu are you using? [05:03] celestial: system -> pref -> monitors [05:03] theadmin: Use stat instead ;) [05:03] vnix27, use part image [05:03] image created successfully but i unable to boot from target disk [05:03] thats why i asked him where r u ~ isnt that english ? [05:03] ZykoticK9: 9.10 [05:03] tucemiux: me personally, i am going to wait about a week. let the hype die down a bit [05:03] tucemiux: use sysanptic auto find a fast mirror and have at it [05:03] Jordan_U: wha [05:03] chu_: sure, just stick the template in the Templates folder (which is in your home directory, ~/Templates) [05:03] Cool, that easy? lol! [05:03] how do you change an icon-there? When I first installed it from apprearance>themes, it asked me to use it, but I said no. how do I use it now? === piju is now known as piju[QRX] [05:03] so, I want to upgrade my motherboard/cpu, (same architecture), so I need to reinstall ubuntu or will it be able to boot so long as I place my hdd's in the same sata slot?....or should I compile my kernel to fit with the new hardware before hand? [05:04] tucemiux: most just flood the defult server === piju[QRX] is now known as piju [05:04] chu_: haha, yeah. Enjoy. === piju is now known as piju[QRX] [05:04] theadmin, uhh...it didn't work. My windows files are still in the _ file instead of the original. Also, the original is empty (but rhythmbox shows two songs each instead of one...but each one lists the same location) [05:04] partimage will do something better ? i tried dd but no success [05:04] sje46: :/ [05:04] are everyone's python programs working okay...? [05:04] tucemiux: gogeta1 does have a point. it is possible to find a different mirror that has less traffic [05:04] or will the defualt kernel be good enough? [05:04] what is busy-box? [05:04] theadmin: stat shows permissions in octal by default and you can completely control its format as well [05:04] Jordan_U, nope. no joy there either [05:04] theadmin, would unmounting them deleting the files do anything? [05:04] er, busybox-static... [05:04] bastid_raZor, gogeta1 thanks, I think Ill wait for about a week, usually I install the RC and keep updating it, if I find no problems I download the ISO and do a clean install, this time however I am going to upgrade my laptop, if I have no issues I will download the ISO and install ESXi and ubuntu studio on my desktop [05:04] sje46: unmounting won't delete anything [05:05] Jordan_U, could my ATi gfx card be the issue? [05:05] slw, thank you! [05:05] tucemiux: good luck [05:05] theadmin, I know. I said unmount, THEN delete [05:05] greezmunkey: A minimal stand alone shell that depends on no external libraries, usefull for initramfs scripts [05:05] tucemiux: rc noraly get updated to finel a few days early so your probly fine aruldy [05:05] even the bios unable to detect target disk [05:05] Jordan_U: schwing! [05:05] it could be making the second folder because the first one is already there, theadmin [05:05] sje46: You mean, like "umount /media/somedevice && rm -rf /media/somedevice"? Shouldn't cause problem [05:05] s [05:05] does anyone know if it is true that too many fonts will slow your system? [05:05] Atamisk: What did you try exactly, and what happened? [05:05] past midnight on East Coast, cheers all, have fun with Lucid [05:06] I'll try it, theadmin [05:06] Hey on my ubuntu upgrade to 10.04 my USb sound stoped working [05:06] Jordan_U, well, i couldn't get grub to load right, due to the BIOS bitching about having no SATA0 [05:06] What is some ways I could go about fixing this, it worked before [05:06] theadmin: no it will not, you can't remove data when a device is unmounted [05:06] anyone know what the package name is to install pulseaudio device chooser? [05:06] Hey quick question.. Does anyone know of a program that I can use to split an .mp3 up into the seperate tracks? It has a .m3u file [05:06] ejv: He wants to erase a mount point. [05:06] 10.04 update is sloooow this time around. [05:06] theadmin: sje46: When deleting empty directories it's much safer to use rmdir, that way it will fail if it's not quite as empty as you thought :) [05:07] thanks Jordan_U ! [05:07] leetuser: i thought that the m3u was just a playlist. it calls the mp3s [05:07] sje46: You're welcome. [05:07] tmbg: yea being everyone uses the defult apt [05:07] rmdir is for the weak [05:07] partimage has any advantage over ntfsclone [05:07] ;) [05:07] tmbg: rather then a mirror [05:07] gsp2009, I thought it was like a .cue file.. [05:07] tmbg: I imagine the spindles are running full-tilt. [05:07] gogeta1, actually I have the RC on a spare hard drive on my laptop, I have two I tried karmic out on my spare hard drive. I'm going to wait a week, remove the spare hard drive from my laptop, reinstall grub, then upgrade to lucid [05:07] Atamisk: Do you mind burning another CD to try grub from a CD? [05:07] leetuser: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M3U [05:07] can someone help? performed a fresh install of lucid 10.04 on hp tx2000 tablet laptop, upon first boot it won't detect my display screen. failsafe graphics mode works but i can't keep using failsafe graphics all the time. tx2000 has geforce 6150 go. i even installed nvidia drivers by booting from failsafe graphics and after installing nvidia driver it didn't help either. need assistance! [05:07] theadmin, rmdir: failed to remove `572C8DDF568B4261/': Permission denied [05:07] I guess it's good news, ubuntu is more popular by a lot this year than last apparently [05:08] What is some ways I could go about fixing this, it worked before [05:08] Hey on my ubuntu upgrade to 10.04 my USb sound stoped working [05:08] sje46: Uhm. You'd need to run it with sudo. [05:08] tucemiux: if you ran any updates in the last 2 days your lucid is fianl [05:08] Jordan_U, it's a liveusb, but how do i get to use grub apropo isolinux [05:08] final [05:08] leetuser: open it with gedit [05:08] God, I love GNU calc. So simple, so precise... any ideas whether I can get that on windows when I'm forced to use that? === `mOOse` is now known as m00se [05:08] ok [05:08] Jordan_U, btw, i tried the LUSB on another box and it worked great [05:09] theadmin, success! thanks! [05:09] ok i solved my problem now i hope someone can explain why it happens this way [05:09] when i upgrade it says, "some 3rd party sources were disabled" How do I enable them? [05:09] Oh okay. It doesn't contain the track info like a .cue file then. Guess I cant split these tracks up on the long mp3 file [05:09] tp43: you dont it disables them on uograde [05:09] tp43: You need to re-add them because they were for Karmic (or hardy, dunno), and won't work on Lucid [05:09] WHy do hardstyle albums always come like this [05:10] gogeta1, yes, I know what you mean. But currently I have two hard drive -- one hard drive is brand new and I use as my "production" environment, I currently have lucid on my second hard drive which is I use only for testing. I have all my stuff on karmic -- appz and data -- which I will upgrade in about a week [05:10] gogeta1, theadmin oh I see, thanks [05:10] anyone know if too many fonts will slow a system?

[05:11] it was trying to make an array out of the drives, not it's partitions [05:11] Hm. It seems that one can't have more then 27 hard drives on Ubuntu? :D [05:11] Jordan_U, okay, but is my ATi card giving me these issues or is it something else? [05:11] once i force it to assemble with sda1,sdb1, etc it works fine [05:11] bazhang, I am wondering if there is a place where we can discuss marketing strategies for ubuntu releases, as you can see for yourself in #ubuntu-release-party, there were a **lot** of people waiting for the official release ===around the globe==== [05:11] theadmin: what do you have 28 lol [05:12] gogeta1, not sure [05:12] finally the install of lucid begins! [05:12] gogeta1: nah lol just funny that you can't do sth. [05:12] yea... you *need* partitions; you don't understand filesystem organization lol; of course it works with sd[a,b,..]1 [05:12] Could someone help me figure out why I'm getting blue blotches all over my screen after enabling the nvidia module for my graphics card? [05:12] Atamisk: I don't know, if it is your ati card then adding "modeset=0" would probably work around it, at least untill X starts. [05:12] theadmin: its linux im shure theres a way [05:12] gogeta1: Letting synaptic select the fastest mirror was a vast improvement. Thanks. [05:12] :) [05:12] Is this where I should be for general support questions that aren't answered in the normal places i.e. the website/wiki? [05:13] KruyKaze: sorry for taking so long -- i reinstalled Pidgin and everything is working fine for me now... the icon looks a whole lot better :D [05:13] J_, yes, you are in the right place, this is the official ubuntu support channel, if youre having any issues then by all means post your question --all in one line [05:13] so it's better to upgrade to lucid through the iso instead of using the Update Manager? [05:13] Atamisk: Or it may need to be radeon.modeset=0 [05:13] J_: It's one good place. ubuntuforums.org and google.com are two others. [05:13] can someone help? performed a fresh install of lucid 10.04 on hp tx2000 tablet laptop, upon first boot it won't detect my display screen. failsafe graphics mode works but i can't keep using failsafe graphics all the time. tx2000 has geforce 6150 go. i even installed nvidia drivers by booting from failsafe graphics and after installing nvidia driver it didn't help either. need assistance!

[05:14] If I create a usb startup disk, can I install ubuntu from that? [05:14] I already did the Update Manager upgrade, having a few problems, so I'm dl'ing the iso to try a reinstall [05:15] andrew____, yes, so long as your system supports booting from use [05:15] guys, anyone here finds the tray for une a lil bit long? [05:15] AbuMaia, do you mean a fresh install? deleting all your files? [05:15] ZykoticK9: Errr it does, but I'm having problems at the moment [05:15] Atamisk: Ok, then it's probably not a bootloader problem (so grub wouldn't change anything). Has linux ever booted on this machine? [05:15] ryankrizan: try turning off effects thats normaly what makes things waky on some cards [05:15] I'm trying to install lucid on a macbook. The generic mactel installation instructions say that I should be installing grub to /dev/sda3/. The new installer won't let me do this and I'm afraid of overriding the apple EFI. Halp plox? :P [05:15] ZykoticK9: I deleted grub, and it keeps bitching at me that it finds no OS on the USB [05:15] I have /home in a separate partition, so no I won't be deleting everything [05:15] gogeta1, I've already checked that. It's disabled. [05:16] andrew____, if you deleted grub that might make sense [05:16] Jordan_U, no. i'm trying linux on this box for the first time. [05:16] J_: Just install to /dev/sda, EFI bootloader isn't stored in the mbr. [05:16] ZykoticK9: Grub has othing to do with booting from USB? [05:16] can someone look at this please i just downloaded this iso 5 mins ago http://imagebin.org/95042 [05:16] Jordan_U, but it's a newer dell box than my current machine, and it works on the old one fine... [05:16] AbuMaia, ok - just checkin', having a separate /home partition is a very good idea (wish i did that) [05:16] ryankrizan: soulds like a driver issue if the oss driver was working i woulda left it alone the one in lucid even supports 3d and cuda [05:17] Jordan: So has this changed since Karmic? [05:17] i downloaded it from here: http://ubuntu-cd.mirror.iweb.ca/10.04/ubuntu-10.04-alternate-i386.iso [05:17] gogeta1, funny thing, after I upgraded to 10.04, I didn't get any display at all, and my xorg.conf was gone. [05:17] andrew____, what does startup disk creator use to boot then? linuxiso perhaps? [05:17] celestial: the only thing I can think of to try is downloading the drivers straight from nvidia (http://www.nvidia.com/Download/index5.aspx?lang=en-us). I don't know exactly what the implications of doing this would be, but I figure it's worth a shot. [05:17] hi [05:17] J_: No, it was always true. I don't know why the guide you used states otherwise. [05:17] ryankrizan: must be a very new card [05:17] gogeta1, legacy. [05:18] hi all [05:18] ryankrizan: then it relly should work well [05:18] celestial: I'm also not an expert, so feel free to keep asking around for someone smarter than me. =] [05:18] ZykoticK9: Erm dunno? I've tried unetbootin etc so far, no luck [05:18] ryankrizan, maybe are you getting the exactly same problem with me? after a fresh install lucid cannot detect my display. [05:18] ryankrizan: you may just have to wait for nivida to relese a lucid driver [05:18] Jordan: This is the guide I'm referring to. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MactelSupportTeam/AppleIntelInstallation [05:18] how can i build a .deb package with all its dependencies ?

[05:19] 4312 bc [05:19] so the lucid updater crapped itself all over here :-) [05:19] how can i build a .deb package with all its dependencies ? [05:19] first it replaced all karmic with lucid in my source list [05:19] but then ... it disabled it thinking it's 3rd party ! [05:19] muhahaha [05:19] hi there, I'm trying to install ubuntu 10.04 from the minimal cd installer on my lenovo netbook and I wonder if it's possible to setup my wireless connection before the installer attempt to run the dhcp client, does anyone know if the installer support it? [05:19] digital_1, i think it has issues with Hulu actually -- there is a hulu client i believe that might work - but people downgraded to 32bit flash for hulu i know [05:20] somebody happens to know what stupid algorithm that thing uses to decide whether a source list is 3rd party ? [05:20] Yo Yo Yo [05:20] ZykoticK9: Thanks much. [05:20] Ubuntu upgrade crashed [05:20] chilicuil: You could grab the alternate CD, then you wouldn't require internet access [05:20] Jordan_U, are there any chipsets that linux hates? [05:20] if someone could, please help I upgraded to 10.04 and everything works fine, execpt my sound USB audio. [05:20] ryankrizan, are you experiencing the problem with default driver? i now can only boot up with failsafe graphics mode... might be a xorg.conf problem, but not sure [05:20] My upgrade crashed mid upgrade, on the installing packages, how should I resume it [05:20] I can't hear nothing on the OS [05:20] Ok - I'm pissed [05:21] J_: I still recommend using /dev/sda (and would even if the installer did allow installing to partitions, as installing to partitions is less reliable) [05:21] Really pissed off.... [05:21] sjr: it should see that and resume [05:21] yarkot: watch your language, please [05:21] celestial, I had to use my failsafe config to even get a gui [05:21] <_Techie_> whenever any sound plays to my sound card, all i hear is noise, even with system sounds [05:21] hiya, I added 2 sources for my Arduino but I don't see them listed in /etc/apt/sources.list, where else might they be listed so I can remove them?

[05:22] AS I SAID - I AM PISSED [05:22] Flannel, fed13 thanks guys, I'm gonna try the with the console at Fn+F2 [05:22] burnt the iso at disk-at-once at 8x..it loads up and then blank screen [05:22] Jordan: Alright. Thank you. Fingers crossed. [05:23] good for you yarkot [05:23] ???? [05:23] yarkot: Hi. Being angry won't fix anything. The people here are volunteers, so yelling at us is even more useless. [05:23] should it be track at once? [05:23] Why does my lucid keep logging off ? [05:23] celestial, I've been digging into that scenario for the past 4 hours. I haven't found any happy medium [05:23] !touchpad [05:23] For a comprehensive Synaptics Touchpad guide, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticsTouchpad [05:23] greezmunkey, only computer the rest gets the same error, but replacing location with music, pictures etc [05:23] yarkot: What in your fstab has gone missing? [05:23] Jordan_U, i'ma try again tomorrow on an nVidia card. [05:23] Flanenel: shall I be QUIET about fstab being TRASHED by an upddate????? [05:24] Would that make you more comfortable, Flannel? [05:24] greezmunkey, also it wont let me goto my windows partition (dev/sda2) [05:24] Glacer: I have found sound in Lucid to be exactly like it was in Karmic. Lots of ittle problems, easy to fix. [05:24] yarkot: I'm saying yelling won't accomplish anything except make people less likely to help you. [05:24] woops [05:24] <_Techie_> whenever any sound plays to my sound card, all i hear is noise, even with system sounds [05:24] myst3k: I cant use mysqldump, I've already upgraded [05:24] i have a c2duo with 3gb notebook.. what version is better to install... 32 or 64bits? [05:24] ryankrizan, maybe we could wait for a few more days and pray the problem to be patched lol (...) [05:24] celestial: if that's what you think, maybe try playing with nvidia-settings? It writes to xorg.conf. [05:24] I get error when I try to upgrade: Could not download the upgrades; check you internet connection [05:24] 10-r5u870-webcam.fdi where cani find it? [05:24] <__dantheman> RxDx: I'd do 64bit [05:25] Ah - I don't need help: I need to YELL at the FLAMING IDIOT who TRASHED a SYSTEM FILE on an update WITHOUT ANY RECOURSE FOR THE USER --- that is plain RUDE [05:25] <_Techie_> whenever any sound plays to my sound card, all i hear is noise, even with system sounds (when running in 5.1 out + analog in, i get surround sound noise) [05:25] __dantheman, is it mature enough? [05:25] celestial, knock on wood! === snoopy is now known as Guest13368 [05:25] yarkot: I doubt that "flaming idiot" is even in this channel, so yelling is still pointless [05:25] <__dantheman> ya, I've never found anything that caused a problem on my system [05:25] <__dantheman> flash isn't 10.1 but it works well enough [05:25] slw i hope i could but since i can only boot into failsafe graphics mode, nvidia-settings can't do anything (at least it seems so) [05:25] .msg yarkot Flannel is trying to explain to you that your attitude towards the people in the channel is not going to help you. [05:25] Zelozelos: If you open up the file browser, you can select the view mode in the left-hand panel. Choose the 'places' view and you can drag-and-drop folders into this to have them appear in the 'places' menu. By default, Gnome limits the number of folders that can be in this menu, anything added after this limit is reached (I think it's like 5 or 6) goes under 'Bookmarks'.

[05:27] mdel: you said you have it backed up, you need to import it back into a clean install?

[05:27] !control [05:27] Guest13368: you write them [05:28] :| how? [05:28] greezmunkey, so i guess to open the filebrowser i need to use nautilus in the run command? [05:28] There seems to be a small bug in the Ubuntu AMD64 iso... mainly it won't boot. It is unable to mount /dev/sda(b)(c)(d)(etc..) and just sits there... or goes to a blank screen. [05:28] Any ideas? [05:28] Are the repositories just being hammered right now? Ultra slow. [05:28] celestial: i think you use xender ro change the rez on newer xorg [05:28] xrender [05:28] sensae, yes they are [05:28] wow, where is xorg.conf stored now? All I have in the dir where it should be is one called "broken_xorg.conf" [05:28] sensae: First day of release, whatcha think? [05:28] <_Techie_> celestial, the command gogeta1 is thinkin of is xrandr, if you wish to pm me with the info... i can guide you [05:28] Fishscene, that wouldn't be a "small bug" :) good luck man [05:29] myst3k: any ideas? [05:29] sensae: no, it's your Internet connection, here's how you fix it: -P [05:29] i feel like ive donee it before [05:29] sensae: someone suggested earlier in changing mirrors.. it may help [05:29] I'm not even upgrading, just trying to grab a single package :/ [05:29] mdel: looking around, never did that before but im sure its possible [05:29] !slow > sensae [05:29] sensae, please see my private message [05:29] sensae: In Synaptic do a scan for the fastest mirror. Gogeta1 told me about that and it worked out pretty good. [05:29] xorg.conf in the home directory !!! heh, didn't see that one coming! [05:29] greezmunkey, ahhh i see so the links got messed up, prob by me somehow [05:29] <^paradox^> i just tried to upgrade to ubuntu 10.04 lts from 8.04 lts and received this error message: An unresolvable problem occurred while calculating the upgrade: [05:29] <^paradox^> The package 'ubuntu-desktop' is marked for removal but it is in the removal blacklist.

I can boot the same ISO in a virtual machine. [05:29] _Techie_, sorry, i'm a total noob and i don't know how i can pm someone [05:29] Zelozelos: I'm glad that helped. [05:29] I have an issue with the i386 iso. "Ext 4 filesystem creation in partition #1 of Serial ATA Raid volume 1 (mirror) failed. Any suggestions with getting it up on a Raid 1 mirror? [05:29] i tried compiling mupen64, it has compiled for me before but it just says I don't have SDL library installed, I do have libsdl1.2-dev and even libsdl1.2debian-all packages installed, but what to do? [05:29] greezmunkey: Xorg.conf is not needed by default, and thus not created. You can create one on your own and it will be used though [05:29] <_Techie_> celestial, i will start up a pm with you then [05:30] greezmunkey, thank you, i was gettin very frustrated, coudnt open anything [05:30] how do you change an icon-theme? When I first installed it from apprearance>themes, it asked me to use it, but I said no. but how do I use it now? [05:30] Zelozelos: when all else fails - google! [05:30] greezmunkey: yes you can genrate one if nedded [05:30] Fishscene, try booting grub without "quiet splash" [05:30] tumii: mupen64-plus is in the repos, why are you compiling it? [05:30] ok my array is fine but i cannot for the life of me get it to start properly upon system boot [05:30] <_Techie_> celestial, click my name on the left hand side (or possibly the top) [05:30] i didnt know where 2 start googling rofl [05:30] <^paradox^> sorry i forgot about pastebin thing [05:30] Zelozelos: at google.com :-P [05:30] oh, one other thing.

[05:31] Jordan_U: becuse the version is not m64+, it is a different project [05:31] Glacer: you probly have to slect them in the sound settings [05:31] i just burned the iso..tried to install ubuntu 10.04 lts.and soon after the screen goes blank [05:31] hi [05:31] explore this web [05:31] http://desdemipcmusic.zapto.org/ [05:31] I did [05:31] Anybody know why lucid keeps logging itself off ? intermitently [05:31] Has anyone had issues booting with the 64-bit edition of 10.04? [05:31] fmateo: Please don't advertise here. [05:31] Guys have suggestions getting 10.04 running on a RAID volume? [05:31] Fishscene: nope [05:31] Flannel [05:31] tumii: Where are you downloading mupen64+ from ? [05:31] sensae, are you the same sensae from @Home with Jono B. ? you're kinda famous for questions ;) [05:31] private msg? [05:32] fmateo: Sure [05:32] ryankrizan, yes can you pm me here [05:32] Flannel, ok [05:32] So can I mount / on one partition, and then /home on another entirely? [05:32] Jordan_U: nowhere...it is NOT mupen64+ what im compiling [05:32] i can't perform "mv 10-r5u870-webcam.fd /usr/share/hal/fdi/information/20thirdparty" [05:32] andrew___ yup [05:32] All you people not being able to boot, etc. Please check the hashes of your .iso. [05:32] hi i am trying to install bootloader of ubuntu 10.04 final release on a linux partition but can't do it, [05:32] can anyone [05:32] myst3k: i copied the files in manually, but im having issues... getting a bunch of "missing tables: [05:32] sensae: In synaptic [05:32] andrew____: yes in fact its the best way [05:32] tumii: Ahh, Ok. [05:32] help [05:32] FeasabilityStudy: How do I do that? [05:32] gogeta1: Apprently so [05:32] Jordan_U: just what are the package names/paths for the SDL library [05:32] anishseth: Why are you trying to install to a partition? [05:32] How much do you reckon for /home? It's a netbook [05:32] mdel: i was reading you can only copy the files and use them with the same version of mysql [05:33] andrew____: lets you do fresh installs without losing home [05:33] ZykoticK9: No clue what @Home is or Jono B. [05:33] Jordan_U: Because i have windows 7 preinstalled [05:33] I've just upgraded to 10.04 and the ordering of the time and memenu don't match the screenshots of what other people have and I cannot move them. Is there a way to reset this to the default?? [05:33] has anyone here gotten 1280x1024 resolutions on a monitor hooked to the Acer D250 netbook [05:33] sensae, not the same person then. sorry. [05:33] andrew____: root only needs like 14gb, the rest can go to /home [05:33] myst3k: well how would one upgrade MySQL then? [05:33] Jordan_U: and would like [05:33] anyone [05:33] <^paradox^> ok i just tried to upgrade to ubuntu 10.04 lts from 8.04 lts and received this error message http://pastebin.com/EZdab5fb [05:33] i'm about to install 10.04 on my desktop... how do i get a footprint of all the progs i have installed now so that i can easily go back and get them? someone told me a long time ago. [05:33] AbuMaia: I have an NTFS partition for bulk files, it's shared between all OSs [05:33] Anyone using a ATI Radeon card and can tell me how I determine if the driver I installed is in use? [05:33] have any ideas as to why i get a blank screen after i try to install ubuntu [05:33] sensae: Settings -->Repositories then select "Other" under Download From. There should be an option that appears that scans for the fastest mirror. It worked great for me. Props to gogeta1 [05:34] sensae, @Home with Jono Bacon - is a videocast by the Ubuntu Community Manager [05:34] Fishscene1: if you're on a linux box now, just open the terminal, go to the location where the .iso is. And then run "sha256sum ubuntu-x86-iso" or whatever the name is.. then compare that hash with the one on the ubuntu site [05:34] greezmunkey, ok i dragged them all there and its still not working [05:34] i have ubuntu 9.10, if i try iptables -L showing error. whats must i do to solved my problem [05:34] andrew____: then a siingle / mount would do for you [05:34] tumii: Even if it's not the same project, I assume the two are related enough that "sudo apt-get build-dep mupen64-plus" will get everything you need. [05:34] is there somewhere i can edit the places menu? [05:34] GillaGal, lspci -k ? [05:34] karma_police: you could use aptoncd for that, it may work for you. [05:34] paradox.. 8.04 doesn't use ext4 does it? [05:34] wow this is a mad house... lol. [05:34] Jordan_U: it just says none found [05:34] Jono also does Floss Weekly on TWIT [05:34] So... Is it a good assumption that it's going to be tough to get your hands of lucid for a couple of days? [05:34] gogeta1: As in, just don't bother with a seperate partition for /home? [05:34] <^paradox^> yes its supposed to used ext4, but im not on it yet [05:34] Whats the repository name for the default "Document Viewer"? [05:35] fb_: did you expect anything diffrent on relese day [05:35] digital_1: Yeah.. I don't see any option like that. [05:35] I wonder why ubuntu disabled the dell launchpad sources [05:35] can someone look at this please i just downloaded this fresh iso http://imagebin.org/95042 [05:35] armence_: you can use torrent, get it quicker [05:35] mdel: how did you upgrade? [05:35] fb_, it was over 2000 people earlier - and after the release message in the party channel - THAT was a "mad house" ;) [05:35] Zelozelos: did you go to the link I posted? There was more info there. [05:35] opps [05:35] hey people wat is this md5 sum exactly for? [05:35] AbuMaia: Thanks... [05:35] myst3k: fresh install [05:35] andrew____: yea if yourr storing files on a nfs then you dont have any problem with not keeping a /home for storage [05:35] maximus_: To make sure the .iso you have is legit. [05:35] i can't use "mv 10-r5u870-webcam.fd /usr/share/hal/fdi/information/20thirdparty". error message: "mv: cannot stat `10-r5u870-webcam.fd': No such file or directory" [05:35] maximus_: We use it to check to see if you successfully downloaded the ISO (and its not corrupted) [05:35] Ok nice :) [05:35] gogeta1: course not! this is great for ubuntu. Zykotick: LOL [05:35] myst3k: so there has to be some way that things get migrated [05:36] maximus_: For checking the integrity of files. [05:36] maximus_: Make sure it wasnt tampered with or acidentally mangled when downloaded. [05:36] man that was weird, I went in menu like 5 times changing to USB audio and then sound finally starts working fully when I clicked enable sounds on buttons to, weird. [05:36] I'm upgrading Ubuntu to 10.04. The installation says that Ubuntu will no longer support XSane. Does that mean it won't be included at a default installation? [05:36] sensae: So under Settings-->Repositories and on the Ubuntu Tab there should be a "Download From" dropdown list. Do you see that? [05:36] <^paradox^> so anyways about that error message. what does it mean? i cant upgrade to 10.04 lts? [05:36] mdel: so a fresh install deletes everything and starts over from scratch, in the future you want to do a mysqldump to a sql file, and then import the sql into your new database [05:36] smooth_penguin, That doesn't state the specific driver. :\ [05:36] tumii: What version of Ubuntu are you using? [05:36] AbuMaia: Where can I find the upgrade torrent? [05:36] @ if the md5sums matches then its sure that the entire file is downloaded right? [05:36] !tab > fb_ typing Zykotick out and still missing my nic is a drag ;) [05:36] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [05:36] gogeta1: Ta very much [05:36] is there a way to migrate a virtualbox installation into a dual-boot scenario? [05:36] How do I install SkiFree? [05:36] digital_1: Got it, thanks [05:36] bobbyyu: Correct, it's moved from main to universe [05:36] armence_: ubuntu.com i would assume [05:37] mdel: do you know what version you were at before hand? [05:37] maximus_: For all intents and purposes, yeah [05:37] myst3k: i'm sure I did this before [05:37] yeah 5.31 [05:37] sensae: you're welcome [05:37] AbuMaia, Also, where do I go to suggest bittorrent should be built into the upgrade system for such times as these? [05:37] what are you at now? [05:37] Any suggestions getting install to work with a raid 1 volume properly? [05:37] armence_: http://releases.ubuntu.com/lucid/ [05:37] Jordan_U: karmic, 9.10 but I plan updating it to 10.04 later today. but i installed mupen64plus and it works like a charm without installing anything else. [05:37] greezmunkey, ok what did you search, its not letting me open the link to where the article is [05:37] but now I got to go bye [05:37] thanks ppl :) [05:37] armence_: using sysanptic to scan out a fast mirror will inprove your speed alot [05:37] maximus_: You also need to make sure the .iso was burned properly to CD [05:37] ubuntu.com, when you click on download, look for alternative downloads [05:37] fb_: See the release notes [05:37] i can't use "mv 10-r5u870-webcam.fd /usr/share/hal/fdi/information/20thirdparty". error message: "mv: cannot stat `10-r5u870-webcam.fd': No such file or directory" [05:37] Is there a program that will replace XSane? [05:38] gogeta1, Thanks [05:38] Zelozelos: try this: http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/linux-desktop-x-windows/162157-gnome-places-menu-messed-up.html [05:38] wow lucid is tight. not a problem on install. [05:38] i can't use "mv 10-r5u870-webcam.fd /usr/share/hal/fdi/information/20thirdparty". error message: "mv: cannot stat `10-r5u870-webcam.fd': No such file or directory" [05:38] A scanning program that will be included at a default installation? [05:38] michaelxq: Are you into the directory that file is located? [05:38] bobbyyu: simple-scan is nice (though, as the name implies, not as feature rich as Xsane). [05:38] ty.. aptoncd is cool.. never used that before [05:38] armence_: blueprint on launchpad, refer to apt-transport-debtorrent [05:38] bobbyyu: Xsane is still available also [05:38] how can i check my install is running in 64bit mode [05:38] greezmunkey, aahaa, there it is, thank you [05:38] GillaGal, well check xorg logs [05:38] : Where are they located? [05:38] karma_police: np [05:38] <_Techie_> whenever any sound plays to my sound card, all i hear is noise, even with system sounds (when running in 5.1 out + analog in, i get surround sound noise) [05:38] fodder70: If you have the 64 bit .iso, it is. [05:38] fodder70, "uname -m" [05:38] arand [05:38] michaelxq: otherwise youll need to do "mv /path/to/weird/file/webcam.fd /other/weird/path [05:38] c this is the problem, i startd downloading this 10.04 in my laptop and slept off, some where in the middle the laptop battery drained and turned off. i just need to make sure the entire file is downloaded. checked the md5 sum and it matches [05:38] arand: thanks [05:39] ty [05:39] help this: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/maqbk3Wb [05:39] so i could burn them and use it right ? [05:39] Jordan: If I installed Ubuntu 10.04, will XSane still be there as a default program? Or not? [05:39] maximus_: Yeah, then it's good. No way to fake an md5sum [05:39] Ubuntu needs to ditch firefox as default, it's nasty :s [05:39] mossby: i've used the command "wget http://students.ceid.upatras.gr/%7Easimakis/10-r5u870-webcam.fdi" and then all the other [05:39] i like using the mint menu in ubuntu [05:39] armence_: Or start off the discussion on ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list... [05:39] andrew____: kidding??? [05:39] Nope, I hate firefox [05:39] For some reason, I made my sister an account (in ubuntu 9.10) and in the upper right hand corner there is no icon for a wireless connection... How can I connect to a wireless network without it? How can I add that icon there? [05:39] thanks dude :D gonna install lucid WOOT! [05:39] andrew____: well thats silly [05:40] mdel: Why is it? [05:40] GillaGal, Xorg logs should mention what driver is currently being used [05:40] fb_: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/1004 [05:40] bobbyyu, on fresh lucid install no, but there is simplescan in it's place [05:40] I'm gonna start answering questions in PM, its nuts in here [05:40] <_Techie_> andrew____, you may hate firefox, but the majority of ubuntu users are hapy with it [05:40] <^paradox^> again the error message i got while trying to upgrade to ubuntu 10.04 lts from 8.04 lts was http://pastebin.com/EZdab5fb . does it mean i cant upgrade to 10.04? [05:40] can someone look at this please i just downloaded this fresh iso http://imagebin.org/95042 [05:40] andrew____: because firefox is a great browser [05:40] armence_: yea for some reasion most user seem to miss that abilty in sysanptic and flood the main server [05:40] So.... everyone is running just perfect now. Not a whisp of trouble. Naturally then, this is bothersome. When do the Alphas for 10.10 hit the wire? [05:40] ratcheer: thx [05:40] why is there no flash for 10.04? [05:40] Jordan_U, it was the card. [05:40] mdel: I did.. Then chrome came :) [05:40] So a scanning program WILL still be there? t/F? [05:40] plum: There is. just install it. [05:40] plum, there is [05:40] FeasibilityStudy: for firefox? [05:41] Jordan_U, popped the ATi card out and it ran up almost instantly [05:41] andrew____: chrome is a good browser, for sure. nothing beats firefox for webdevelopment [05:41] plum: Flash is proprietary, so can't be shipped out of the box as a free OS. You can install it from the repos/synaptic etc [05:41] Firebug, perhaps [05:41] plum: Yes, just install it from synaptic. Do a search for flash, then install it. I cant remember the exact filename. [05:41] mdel: or addons [05:41] mdel: I prefer Chrome's javascript debugger [05:41] ah okay, thanks [05:41] bobbyyu: Yes, simple-scan comes by default in 10.04 [05:41] Where can I get a list of md5 hashes for 10.04? [05:41] digital_1: to Firebug?? [05:41] please, how can I connect to a network if there is no icon for it in the upper right hand corner [05:41] mdel: yeah [05:41] Thank you. I was fearing that I'd be left without a scanning program! [05:41] webkit dev tools are soooo weak compared to firebug [05:41] Atamisk: Great. [05:41] Fishscene ubuntu.com [05:42] gogeta1: I'm aware of that. But where? [05:42] So much auto blah blah for firefox with ubuntu though [05:42] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuHashes does not have the hashes for 10.04 [05:42] mdel: too bad firefox has become bloatware :D [05:42] Fishscene1: http://releases.ubuntu.com/lucid/ [05:42] Thanks [05:42] mossby: only if you choose to make it so :) [05:42] does anyone know whether a virtualbox install can be migrated to a separate partition for a dual-boot scenario? [05:42] Fishscene1: http://releases.ubuntu.com/10.04/ [05:42] Fishscene1: click on the version you have and it will show all MD5's for it. [05:43] mdel: haha, and installing firebug is first step... i kid i kid [05:43] hey guys im trying to connect to another ubuntu machine using instructions here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNC but the script runs and just sits there with this output http://pastebin.com/iDskxgFZ [05:43] duckwars, add to panel - indicator applet. then try alt+f2 nm-applet [05:43] anyone have an idea? [05:43] JetPackTuxedo: If it's a linux VM, yes (probably windows also but I'm not familiar) [05:43] It seems that firefox in lucid is MUCH faster than it was in karmic...but it is still really laggy...chromium still blows it out of the water [05:43] mossby: :) firebug is a developers best friend [05:43] greezmunkey, ok maybe im being mis-understood, on the upper panel under the places menu between apps and system, when i pull down the menu and click on any of those places its giving me that error [05:43] smooth_penguin, fglrx 8.75.5 But I dunno if that is for the Radeon 5770 card as the driver version during install said 8.723 [05:43] mdel: oh its amazing, its the only thing i miss... there's a lite version for Chrome, but it lacks some of the better features [05:43] hey, I screwed up some options in a package and i'm wondering how to completely remove and reinstall it, apt-get remove does not take everything, it reinstalls still broken [05:43] mdel: does firebug do cross browser javascript validation? [05:44] otherwise the bookmarks in the filebrowser are workin just fine [05:44] JetPackTuxedo, it might be possible, you might want to ask in #vbox though [05:44] Jordan_U, so it should be? I can't find a guide for it anywhere. [05:44] ...dang. 2 downloads and both failed the md5... Not good. [05:44] ZykoticK9, thanks [05:44] What's the URL for Simplescan? [05:44] Fishscene1: http://releases.ubuntu.com/lucid/ [05:44] md5 there [05:44] hellu [05:44] i need some help [05:44] my question is [05:44] my graphic card is not working well with linux === Teknical_ is now known as Teknical [05:45] ZykoticK9: adding indicator just adds another user access type menu, and another email checker [05:45] Does compiz not work with the default nvidia driver in lucid? [05:45] Flynsarmy, nope [05:45] you need the real NVidia drivers [05:45] Yup. I checked it out and my hash differes on the last digit... which is odd I think as any difference should make the md5 wildly different. [05:45] my nividia driver is not working in lucid [05:45] how??? [05:45] Flynsarmy: It works for me. What's wrong with it? [05:45] nouveau won't run it [05:45] Never mind, I'll find that out for myself. Thanks to all. [05:45] Zelozelos: open up Nautilus file browser... [05:45] hellluuu any1 answer me pl0x [05:45] hello everyone [05:45] zipper, which driver? [05:45] duckwars, so sorry (i always confuse those) it's Notification Area [05:45] my nivida graphic card [05:45] greezmunkey, ok... [05:46] digital_1, are you using the proprietry nvidia driver? [05:46] my mother bboard card works with lucid [05:46] zipper, have you installed the drivers for it? [05:46] but not working with my graphic card [05:46] Flynsarmy: Yeah, 64-bit. [05:46] i installed it in xp [05:46] do i have to do it in linux? [05:46] wt... [05:46] zipper, Lots of problems with it today [05:46] i recently installed ubuntu lucid, but in gwibber, my twitter timeline doesnt show up [05:46] LOL [05:46] Zelozelos: hit F9 until you see the sidebar on the left side, it may already be there. [05:46] any way to fix this ? [05:46] that makes a spacer [05:46] I am using the propriety ATI driver, is there anything I need to do to enable it after install? [05:46] digital_1, i'm on 32. desktop zoom, animations on window open/close, swithc desktop animations etc aren't working for me. not sure why [05:46] greezmunkey, yup those are there and working ;) [05:46] Flynsarmy, if you talking about nouveau i remember it working a bit - but i certainly switched to proprietary myself after about 3 minutes [05:46] zipper: did you just askwhat i think you did [05:46] lol [05:47] Flynsarmy: 195.36.15 with a 9800GT [05:47] alternate ISO upgrade to Lucid from Karmic with no internet is failing. is there a way to purge the failed initial upgrade attempt data from using System/Administration/Upgrade Manager [05:47] yes u did [05:47] zipper, yeah, you have to install it. Just go to System > Administration > Hardware Drivers [05:47] GRAPHIC CARD PROBLEMO [05:47] Flynsarmy: Wobbly windows working? [05:47] Zelozelos: remove one of them, like Downloads. [05:47] system in linux right? [05:47] Is it possible to install a program compiled for Ubuntu 9.10 in Ubuntu 10.4? [05:47] zipper, yes [05:47] flavio: might work [05:47] thank you jetpacktuxeeee [05:47] zipper: yes if your card is a newer model you have to install the linux drivers for your nivida [05:47] alright [05:47] thanks [05:47] i cant beleve you asked that lol [05:47] be back in 10 [05:47] Fishscene1: check the sha256sum as well, just to make sure [05:48] digital_1, nope [05:48] maco: thanks [05:48] sorry [05:48] i am a new linux user [05:48] zipper: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [05:48] zipper, no problem [05:48] please, how can I connect to a network without the network icon in the upper right hand corner? Or even how can I add that icon there? [05:48] I have no clue how to do a sha sum [05:48] please give me a chance =( [05:48] <^paradox^> anyone? i need to know what this http://pastebin.com/EZdab5fb means. tried to upgrade to 10.04 lts from 8.04 lts and received it [05:48] no i co tam slychać? [05:48] hi how do i upgrage from rc to release version? [05:48] digital_1, how do i check if i'm on 32 or 64bit? [05:48] it's very difficult to look up that question in google [05:48] Zelozelos: right-click Downloads, choose remove [05:48] greezmunkey, ok did it [05:48] duckwars, can you run nm-applet? [05:48] !rc | Bunbury [05:48] Flynsarmy: uname -m [05:48] <^paradox^> does it mean i cant upgrade to 10.04 or what? [05:48] Fishscene1: sha256sum ubuntu-10.04-.iso, etc. [05:48] !final | Bunbury [05:48] Bunbury: If you installed a Alpha/Beta/RC version of Ubuntu 10.04 (Lucid Lynx) and have been keeping it up to date, then you are already running the latest version of Lucid. To make sure, type « sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade » in a console. [05:48] i686...thats 64? [05:48] hi people! I've downloaded libflashplayer.so from adobe.com, where do I put it in ubuntu? tried /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/ but didnt work. [05:48] Zelozelos: now check your Places menu, is Downloads gone? [05:48] I'm downloading a 3rd iso... I'll hash that and see what happens. [05:49] Hi, I ran an update few minutes back and it asked me to restart in the boot menu I select kernel 2.6.31-21-genric to boot. I got an error msg " 1.185157 Kernal Panic - not syncing VFS: unable to mount root fs on unknown block (8,17)" Can someone help to overcome this ???? [05:49] k ty [05:49] ^paradox^: did you file the bug like requested to? [05:49] how do I run nm-applet? [05:49] greezmunkey, yup it's gone then drag it back over? did that, didnt work [05:49] oh, I'm downloading the ISO's on Win7 [05:49] Quick question... I'm thinking of trying out Lucid Lynx, but I don't know whether or not to choose the 32-bit version or 64-bit version. When I tried 64-bit in Karmic, I had compatibility issues. Thoughts? [05:49] myst3k: here's another question for ya [05:49] progre55: it's probably best to install flash from the repositories. [05:49] Flynsarmy- do a uname -a inside a terminal [05:49] Thanks everyone for the different mirror suggestion. I'm pulling Lucid at 1.4 MB/s now [05:49] duckwars, alt+f2 then nm-applet [05:49] duckwars: alt+f2 [05:49] myst3k: any thoughts on running hp 5.2.X on 10.04?? [05:49] Flynsarmy: that is 32bit [05:49] hp 5.3 is trash [05:49] greezmunkey, it showd back up, but still didnt work [05:49] ThatGuyOverThere, What kind of compatibility issues ? [05:49] hi [05:49] ThatGuyOverThere: What compatibility probs? [05:49] Zelozelos: once you drag it back over, it still won't work from the Places menu? [05:49] mdel: maybe last time you did it, it was the same version you backed up and reinstalled so it worked, now there is a diff version [05:49] ThatGuyOverThere: well 64 bit always has issues with emulating 32bit apps [05:50] greezmunkey, nope [05:50] myst3k: yeah thats possible [05:50] does this video file work for anyone? -> http://173.45.231.202/hypnotic/bjarni/bjarni.mov [05:50] zykoticK9: I did that, but nothing seems to have happened [05:50] slw: I did, but it's buggy for 9.10 and 10.04 64bit. For instance pause on youtube doesnt work. [05:50] Flynsarmy: Out of curiousity- what card are you running? [05:50] gogetal: Exactly. I tried to install programs and it said they weren't compatible with my architecture. [05:50] can someone look at this please i just downloaded this fresh iso http://imagebin.org/95042 [05:50] myst3k: thank the lord for svn db backups :) [05:50] <^paradox^> bastid_raZor: not yet. i have unofficial packages, but most people i talked with thought id be fine [05:50] duckwars, don't know then. good luck. [05:50] Same issue with 32-bit apps in Lucid...? If so I won't bother. [05:50] mdel: might be easiest to use virtual machine and put db files back to old version, then do a mysqldump and get the data out [05:50] digital_1, how do i find that out :) 8600 gt i believe [05:50] digital_1, on a laptop [05:50] Zelozelos: whoa, it should be *that* simple to fix...perhaps your bookmarks file is hashed... [05:50] ThatGuyOverThere: you can use ia32libs and most things will install after that === BalSak is now known as peeved [05:50] ThatGuyOverThere, just use 32 bit Lucid Lynx if you have 32 bit apps that you need to use [05:50] mdel: either that or use an older package if you can uninstall it and get it workin [05:51] !keyboard [05:51] To switch your keyboard layout on GNOME: System -> Preferences -> Keyboard (GNOME) - KDE: K -> System Settings -> Regional & Language -> Keyboard Layout (KDE) - Xfce: see https://help.ubuntu.com/6.10/xubuntu/desktopguide/C/switch-keyboard-layout.html - See also !Shortcuts [05:51] slw: so I had downloaded version 10.1 rc2 from labs.adobe.com and it was working on karmic. but dont remember the filepath =) [05:51] greezmunkey, i checked it and it looks just like the one in the post you showed me [05:51] =(((( [05:51] So it's not worth using 64-bit? [05:51] myst3k: Im actually ok without it... i have backups, I just expected it to work [05:51] hi, i want to know which fps game is this http://papul.gotdns.com/game.png [05:51] There are still issues getting 32-bit apps to work? [05:51] greezmunkey, even after i deleted/redragged them all back [05:51] ThatGuyOverThere: its worth it in some instances [05:51] mdel: whats hp? [05:51] ThatGuyOverThere: if you have more then 4gb of ram then you would need to [05:51] install flash from package manager [05:51] myst3k: i meant php [05:51] Anybody working on sbcl around [05:51] Still having issues installing on a RAID 1 volume, checked the release notes, no dice there. Any suggestions? [05:51] myst3k: im thinking I need to compile an older version of PHP from source [05:51] FlynsArmy: You should be able to look under Nvidia Settings. System --> Administration --> NVidia X Server Settings [05:51] gogetal: I only have 4 gb. [05:51] Hi, I ran an update few minutes back and it asked me to restart in the boot menu I select kernel 2.6.31-21-genric to boot. I got an error msg "1.185157 Kernal Panic - not syncing VFS: unable to mount root fs on unknown block (8,17)" However I rebooted again with older version kernal 2.6.31-20 it works fine. How to fix this problem ? [05:51] hi, i want to know which fps game is this http://papul.gotdns.com/game.png [05:51] Zelozelos: that's wierd, you could try logging out of gnome, then back in. After that I'm not sure... [05:51] progre55: I don't know it off the top of my head either, good luck. If that doesn't work for you though, I do know that disabling compiz is a workaround to the youtube play button problem. [05:52] White-Horse: Try burning it with something other than Nero. [05:52] nie ma tu nic ciekawego [05:52] mdel: have you checked out zendserver community edition [05:52] gogetal: I've heard a lot of hoopla about Lucid's startup time. Is it faster with 64-bit? That might make it worthwhile to give it a shot in my mind. [05:52] ThatGuyOverThere, there is *almost* nothing that doesn't run under 64bit, BUT some apps require more configuring. installing 32bit libs etc. [05:52] ok ill give that a try, thanks for helping greezmunkey [05:52] digital_1, i don't have that [05:52] ThatGuyOverThere: then you probly whont notec mutch of a perforance diffrence just running 32 [05:52] o czym gadacie === radar3d is now known as radar3d|Zzzz [05:52] <^paradox^> bastid_raZor: ill file it, but i first i wanna try to find out what it means, what happened [05:52] myst3k: nooo i tried that a while back, i didnt like it [05:52] slw: thanks =) well, I kinda like compiz :) [05:52] ThatGuyOverThere: yea ia32 is pretty good but you still get the fw stubbern apps [05:52] digital_1, a package you installed yourself perhaps? [05:52] myst3k: I just want a basic lamp stack, with php 5.2 [05:52] hi, i want to know which fps game is this http://papul.gotdns.com/game.png [05:52] ThatGuyOverThere, 64 bit wouldn't improve your boot time at all most likely [05:52] Flynsarmy: Nope [05:53] myst3k: I installed the metapackage lamp-server^ [05:53] Okay. I think I'll just stick with the 32-bit then. [05:53] so I have a working system [05:53] i just need PHP 5.2 now [05:53] mdel: i have not actually used 10.04 yet, still on 9.10, just downloaded it though [05:53] Doggonit. The 3rd iso has the same problem as the first 2. The md5 sum differs ONLY on the last digit. Instead of an 8, I have a 4. [05:53] Flynsarmy: Does it show proprietary driver in use for the graphics card? [05:53] Not like very many applications use the extra muscle anyway. [05:53] ThatGuyOverThere: apache2 does :) [05:53] mdel: apt-get it [05:53] ThatGuyOverThere: i dont knoe many apps that dont have a 64 bit version these days [05:53] hi guys. I'm sure this has come this way before, but I'll ask again: anyone else's keyboard & mouse disabled after upgrade? [05:53] Fishscene1: sha256sum ubuntu-10.04 [05:53] still can't get my array to auto assemble upon boot [05:53] so weird [05:53] greezmunkey: you cant just apt-get an older version of php [05:53] i can do it manually [05:53] Fishscene1: post the output here and I will check it for you [05:53] ok standby.. [05:53] Alright, thanks for the help. [05:53] peeved: i had that problem [05:53] digital_1, i'd say probably not because system - preferences - monitors is working. it doesn't if you use proprietry [05:53] mdel, there is no Ubuntu package called lamp-server. Are you talking about xamp or something you downloaded? [05:54] peeved, is it built in, like a laptop? [05:54] any mdadm pros in here? [05:54] ThatGuyOverThere: i knoe wine 64 is acully worse then wine 32 atm [05:54] ZykoticK9: its not a package [05:54] ZykoticK9: He's talking about task-sel [05:54] ThatGuyOverThere: im shure it will get better thow [05:54] hello ,everyone [05:54] is there someway to connect to a network without using the applet? [05:54] Flannel: thanks :) [05:54] Oh. Well, the hell with 64-bit then. [05:54] hi, i want to know which fps game is this http://papul.gotdns.com/game.png [05:54] Flannel, will research that now, thanks [05:54] Wine is the best. [05:54] Flynsarmy: Well without the proprietary drivers you won't get the effects. [05:54] ZykoticK9: sudo tasksel ;) [05:54] ZykoticK9: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Tasksel [05:54] Alright, thanks. Think I'll stick to the ol' 32-bit. [05:55] digital_1, thought you said you weren't on them and were getting the effects? [05:55] Anybody here using Lucid yet? [05:55] My linux box refuses to talk to my windows box and it's disrupted my home network. What do? [05:55] Flannel, cool like the sever install ;) [05:55] myst3k: external USB & PS/2 devices on a desktop [05:55] mdel: guess I'm wrong I thought 5.2 was the latest. [05:55] looking for lucid beta2 help is this the right place? [05:55] #ubuntu-offtopicu [05:55] Flynsarmy: No, I have the proprietary drivers turned on. Without them, you won't get the effects. [05:55] hmmm, my php files are not being processed and im prompted to download them after upgrading to 10.04 ... anyone have any ideas? [05:55] ZykoticK9: That's what the server install launches, yeah. [05:55] I actually stopped using Lucid because I had too many hardware compatibility issues with Karmic. [05:55] Flomaster: well we are in final so [05:55] Er, stopped using Ubuntu, rather. [05:55] Not Lucid. [05:55] peeved: same issue on my desktop, have not been able to figure it out...both usb [05:55] how do you open the ubuntu music store? [05:55] Redeuxx: stop apache2, sudo a2enmod php5, start apache2 [05:55] i'm on lucid and it's mostly ok [05:56] well I guess I should install final then [05:56] pepper_haze: its in rhythmbox === rainofkayos is now known as SolarisBoy [05:56] helo guys I am new to IRC chat I am tring to join one channel but getting this error msg " :Cannot join channel (+r) - you need to be identified with services" [05:56] Flannel: php5 is already enabled ma [05:56] how is lucid ??? gnome right ? [05:56] Flomaster: use sysanptic find a fast mirror and upgrade easy [05:56] pepper_haze, rhythmbox and ubuntuone store on left side [05:56] i dont think anyone in the thunderbird channel is awake, so im gonna try asking in here [05:56] I don't know if anyone else has notice that when you have a dark 'selected items' background color, even with white text for your gtk theme, the menu; 'file, edit, view, go, message, etc. text stays black in Thunderbird, rendering that item virtually unreadable. Is there a fix for this either than 'pick a lighter color'? [05:56] can any body please tell me how to resolve this [05:56] The topic recommendends: "Please use torrents." Where can I find information how to use torrents in order to upgrad to 10.04? [05:56] myst3k: this is bad. this is ver, VERY bad. I've dkfg'd the console & reset X configs. no luck [05:56] selvator, register and identify [05:56] Flomaster: if you have been updating then your aruldy finall [05:56] Hmmm nvidia-settings it not showing both my monitors... [05:57] !register > selvator [05:57] selvator, please see my private message [05:57] selvator: Try the command "/msg NickServ identify (your password)" [05:57] My linux box refuses to talk to my windows box and it's disrupted my home network. What do? [05:57] bullgard4: The only way to use a torrent to upgrade sto download the alternate CD, and then upgrade through that [05:57] selvator: type /msg nickserv help [05:57] Flannel: Ah! [05:57] gogeta1: I can't get my wifi working so no I have not been updating instead i've been using win7 [05:57] peeved: i had the same problem with 9.10, then tried to install 10.04 and same thing....gave up at that point running windows on my desktop [05:57] Anyone know hwo to remove the damn breadcrumbs from nautilus and go back to text? [05:57] Is there supposed to be an output from the sha256sum? It ran for a bit, and then nothing. [05:57] Flomaster: oh [05:57] ola [05:57] i am back [05:57] bullgard4 have you tried NDISwrapper to get your wifi working? [05:58] erm when i tried to put my driver in [05:58] it crashes [05:58] so how? [05:58] my broadcom actually works so nice in kub/lucid [05:58] W43372: No. [05:58] 10.04 changes some themes to menu on left , wonder why [05:58] i can't even start the thing [05:58] ok that didnt work, heres a better discription while i was away i fig'd out that if i add to panel the name of the thingy is menu bar, what if i was to apt-get purge it and reinstall it? [05:58] My screen resolution is 1280x800, which is 16:10, yet in gnome's display panel I can only set 16:9, 1280x720. How can I set it back to 1280x800? [05:58] * agnel thinks empathy is neat [05:58] Redeuxx: That happens when php isn't enabled, we get it sometimes, and always have trouble finding it, but that's the solution [05:58] like to close windows [05:58] !controls > Glacer [05:58] Glacer, please see my private message [05:58] Fishscene1: There should be. You can also try sha1sum [05:58] bullgard4 is the wireless built in or are you using a usb adapter? [05:58] Fishscene: yes, sha256sum? should print one line of text, then exit...

(you haven't said that yet) [05:59] yes it does, sorry [05:59] peeved: haha [05:59] * zipper cries [05:59] I have the RC of Lynx currently installed, but when I try to upgrade using "update-manager -d" it doesn't show the option to upgrade. Any ideas? [05:59] Redeuxx: Alright, and userdir itself works? [05:59] !ask > zipper [05:59] zipper, please see my private message [05:59] yep, usedir works fine [06:00] kfizz: your up3date [06:00] My screen resolution is 1280x800, which is 16:10, yet in gnome's display panel I can only set 16:9, 1280x720. How can I set it back to 1280x800? [06:00] agnel: Pidgin's graphics are more appealing to me but Empathy's functionality under the hood is more convincing. [06:00] kfizz: there is no development version to upgrade to. Just do your regular updates [06:00] up2date [06:00] gogeta1 I had a network set up with just wireless, but then I had the cable install a modem in here so my winbox is hard lined, and ever since then when I try to access the winbox through samba it just points me at the public folder on the linbox [06:00] So it is going to be on left side? [06:00] bullgard4 can you find the windows driver for the adapter? [06:00] Fishscene1: That is not a good sha256sum. in other words it dont match.. [06:00] hello my driver crashed when i tried putting it in so what should i do? [06:00] untill another theme :/ [06:00] bullgard4, love the notification osd in empathy ;) [06:00] 最近ubuntu升级不太稳定 [06:00] Moral_, will depend on what graphics card driver you're using [06:00] W43372: the ip changed [06:00] 怎么回事啊 [06:00] metbsd, english here [06:00] Flannel, so I'm "upgraded" already? [06:01] kfizz: If you do regular updates, yeah. [06:01] guys, is there any doc on how to use the memenu on the ubuntu site? [06:01] gogeta1 yes, I'm aware of that, how do I get the linbox to recognize it again? [06:01] ZykoticK9, shouldn't there be a configuration file where I can set the resolution manually? [06:01] criminy. It seems I am unable to get a good iso, from 2 different Official Ubuntu servers and a torrent download. What are my next steps? the same iso files boots just fine in a virtual box and installs nicely. [06:01] Flannel, alright, thanks. [06:01] ZykoticK9: i've already asked my question but no 1 answered me [06:01] ok, lately having trouble upgrading stuff to 10.04 [06:01] !ot [06:01] Fishscene1: SORRY [06:01] #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! [06:01] what happened to ubuntu lately [06:01] W43372: I could but I am not interested in Windows any more and I do not have time for that today and tomorrow. I am sorry. [06:01] W43372: change the ip the same ay you set it up [06:01] Fishscene1: Yes, it DOES match.. [06:01] Moral_, xorg.conf (not there by default) - but again it will depend on what gfx card your using [06:01] metbsd, slow servers? error messages? please clarify [06:01] gogeta1 I just did, and that didn't help [06:01] Hahaha. ok. Thanks, man I was perplexed. [06:01] Fishscene1: I was looking at sha1sum instead of sha256sum. Sorry. Yes, that checksum you gave me does match [06:02] MY DRIVER crashed when i tried to slot it in and i m not able to go system>adminstration>hardware [06:02] bullgard4 no no, go find the win driver for the adapter, and use NDISwrapper to make it work on linux. [06:02] video card driver no more working for no reason [06:02] no error [06:02] whatnot [06:02] !ndiswrapper > bullgard4 [06:02] bullgard4, please see my private message [06:02] metbsd: a *huge* new release happened *today*. Is that what you mean? [06:02] ok. So it looks like we're looking at an Ubuntu hardware issue? [06:02] W43372: you still on the same roughter [06:02] yea mine too [06:02] ZykoticK9, thanks, I'll take a look, it got all messed up after I was watching a movie via hdmi [06:02] zipper, what? [06:02] metbsd, it is upgraded then? and you have to boot in low resolution? or some other issue [06:02] i tried to install it [06:02] hey jet [06:02] Fishscene1: Did you install via a CD? If so, did you verify the CD burned properly? [06:02] i mean, is that huge release what makes my video driver not working anymore? [06:02] i tried to slow my gcard in but it crashed [06:02] already lowest [06:02] slot* [06:03] metbsd, what card? [06:03] it's nv card [06:03] I verified the CD and it burned correctly. [06:03] <^paradox^> i tried to upgrade to ubuntu 10.04 lts from 8.04 lts and recieved this http://pastebin.com/EZdab5fb . does it mean i cant upgrade to 10.04 lts? i need to get this figured out [06:03] gogeta1 no, I was having phone issues, so the cable company pulled the internet off of the one the phone is on and gave it a dedicated box in my room. [06:03] metbsd,run sudo apt-get update then report back [06:03] anyone know where the gnome volume panel applet went in 10.04? [06:03] nforce 2 [06:03] hello why is it so difficult to basic touchpad commands on ubuntu? on windows theres one program, you install it and has about 100 options.. on ubuntu theres two things for the touchpad and the options are laughable [06:03] Hey, I just upgraded to 10.04 and my wireless range decreased a lot. Does anyone know why this is? [06:03] W43372: you can still use the roughter [06:03] zipper, what do you mean "crashed"? [06:03] Fishscene1: Ok, I must have come in after you were asking what your problem was. What was it again? [06:03] metbsd: I doubt that the new release had any effect on your video card, what release are you running? [06:03] HELP! Iinstalled lucid with dualboot windows and am getting error: no such partition grub rescue> [06:03] zipper, just the xserver? [06:03] ^paradox^: Are you on a fully-updated version of 8.04? [06:03] 10.04 [06:04] well, it's happening.. right here [06:04] mattgyver, gnome-volume has been superseeded by indicator-applet [06:04] do i have to upgrade? [06:04] I am having to change all my settings and reinstall software like Gdesklet, tor, some drivers [06:04] hi all, i wanted to go back to windows, when i booted with my windows cd, it says i can't install over my /home/ partition (guessing cus it's ext3? ) [06:04] anyway, how do i partition it properly (do i need to use gparted from a usb drive?) [06:04] JetPackTuxedo: 1stly i start up linux and its alright but after that when i slot my graphic card in to try to install it crashed [06:04] gogeta1 yeah, i've got a new modem that's hooked to the cable, and the same wireless router is plugged into this new modem, the winbox is hardlined and the linbox is wireless. [06:04] i don't mind staying in old version [06:04] guys i cannot get my broadcom wifi to work in ubuntu 20.4 [06:04] <_Techie_> im having major sound problems on a fresh lucid install, all sound played through my soundcard is just noise [06:04] 10.4 [06:04] JetPackTuxedo: the entire screen went popeye [06:04] zipper, can you start up linux with the card already in place? [06:04] JetPackTuxedo: nope [06:05] ZykoticK9, my indicator applet doesnt have it either though :| unless im blind [06:05] <^paradox^> Flannel: i got all my updates done before i tried the upgrade. i have unofficial packages, but i was told by most id be fine [06:05] USB mouse and keyboard not working after upgrade to 10.04. lsusb says they are both visible [06:05] One thing that does annoy me about Lucid is the way it locks the screen after only a couple minutes. Annoying. [06:05] ZykoticK9, im blind [06:05] zipper, does it boot to the terminal? [06:05] W43372: you may have to reconfiure the roughting for the new ip [06:05] JetPackTuxedo: nope [06:05] can i get some help with mdadm? can't quite get it to assemble my array on boot but it works fine by hand [06:05] W43372: the port fowarding [06:05] gogeta1 how do I do that? [06:05] zipper, you didn't try to plug it in while the system was running did you? [06:05] mattgyver, did you find it? [06:05] it's assembling with the drives instead of partitons [06:05] where do I got to stop requiring me to log in after I've been idle? [06:05] partitions* [06:05] mattgyver, left click the top panel and you will be presented with the option [add to panel} [06:05] FeasibilityStudy, This can be changed. [06:05] i installed 10.04.. when i did first reboot i get : error: No such partition. Grub Rescue> [06:05] greezmunkey: yes i did [06:05] ^paradox^: So, `sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade` doesn't give you errors or anything? (and just tells you that you're already up to date)? [06:05] ZykoticK9, yeah i had to enable it, for whatever reason i was looking at the indicator-session-applet [06:05] zipper, does it run under windows? [06:05] zipper: dude. [06:05] justinjstark: Yeah I know it can, but was just commenting.. [06:06] !ot | dominicdinada [06:06] JetPackTuxedo: yes it does [06:06] dominicdinada, please see my private message [06:06] No worries. My problem is that I have downloaded and burned 2 iso images of Ubuntu 64-bit on a CD. One came from bittorrent, the other from a USA mirror. I pop the cd in my drive and boot from it, as soon as it loads the screen with the dots on it, I can press the esc-key and there is a message saying something about an error in line 7 of a file(?). On my 2nd cd, I get further messages stating that it can't mount /dev/sda(b)(c) up to about (f) and then [06:06] W43372: or you can test from the winbox mine ever sees the linux box but if i type in it manuly it works [06:06] <_Techie_> im having major sound problems on a fresh lucid install, all sound played through my soundcard is just noise [06:06] mattgyver, did you try to remove the mail icon? cause that would do it. [06:06] guys i cannot get my broadcom wifi to work in ubuntu 10.4 [06:06] :( [06:06] W43372: from run like do \\ip [06:06] <^paradox^> Flannel u want me to run that at the terminal? is it all one command? [06:06] zipper, then I have no idea [06:06] ZykoticK9, no actually i just had never enabled it and did an upgrade so thats why it wasnt there by default [06:06] mattgyver, that might do it too :) [06:06] ^paradox^: That's one line, yeah. [06:06] FeasibilityStudy, While it may be annoying, I think it is good practice to default to something secure. Some of us have sensitive data. [06:06] gogeta1 what is this I don't even... [06:07] W43372: from rundows do run and type \\the ip if your linux samba [06:07] <^paradox^> Flannel: is it gonna start an install or just check some things? [06:07] W43372: if it connects then its just windows not seeing it [06:07] jetpacktuxedo : do u have any idea how to make my computer into a full fledge linux server instead of having to choose my options on startup [06:07] W43372: you can do the same from linux to windows [06:07] brandon_, THEN HOW ARE YOU ONLINE ?????? [06:08] btw, when powering on/off lucid, some error messages show up on the screen, then the splash screen apprears. Is it only on my machine or what? [06:08] ^paradox^: If you're not up to date, it'll install some stuff, try this instead (whic will just simulate it: `sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get --simulate dist-upgrade`) [06:08] is this where the party is? [06:08] gogeta1 no the win>lin is fine. I can put things in my public folder on linux and then pick them up on windows, but the reverse of that won't work. [06:08] With lucid, is anyone else having an issue with edge scrolling on their laptop ? [06:08] zen--: No, this is where the support is. === xandy is now known as [ydnax] [06:08] <_Techie_> im having major sound problems on a fresh lucid install, all sound played through my soundcard is just noise [06:08] how do i for a install, it is saying package tor diff, I did a force on 9.04 forgot the command and it worked [06:08] W43372: you can run the same command in linux [06:08] Flannel: i was kidding :P [06:08] #ubuntu-release-party [06:08] zipper, you mean completely linux and no dual-boot, or just automatically boot ubuntu? [06:08] oh heh wow there really is one [06:09] how to register? [06:09] zen--: ^^ [06:09] :D [06:09] chad, do you think ppl got one pc at home? [06:09] * zen-- is here to help [06:09] jetpacjtuxedo: automatically boot ubuntu [06:09] zen--, no it is at this site http://boards.4chan.org/g/ [06:09] W43372: if it connects then you just have the wrong ip for the windows [06:09] jetpacktuxedo :auto boot to ubuntu [06:09] already there ;) [06:09] can anyone help me? i get error: no such partition after initial install reboot [06:09] gogeta1 I pinged it and it's not timing out. [06:09] <_Techie_> zipper, edit your grub.cfg and remove any extra boot entries [06:10] <^paradox^> Flannel: hang on and ill pastebin it [06:10] W43372: then do \\ip its the same command for linux [06:10] W43372: it should connect to the samba [06:10] _techie_ , sorry but this is kinda stupid but how do i do it? [06:10] ok did some more reading, it appears that the menu bar's open with nautilus command is faulty, thats why the bookmarks work, delete in the menu, show up after i replace them and still dont work also the ones like desktop and home folder which arent bookmarks dont work, any idea on what 2 do? [06:10] Is there a 64-bit version of Flash in the repos for Lucid? [06:10] considering PPl looks like two flags flying in the wind next to a building i would guess they are the home [06:10] gogeta1 bash: //ip: No such file or directory [06:10] zipper, you are going to want the application "startup manager". You can find it in synaptic or run "sudo apt-get install startupmanager" [06:10] ThatGuyOverThere: i dont think so there are a few ppas out there though [06:11] W43372: thers abought 3 places you can invoke that command [06:11] chad: Please help keep this channel ontopic, thanks. [06:11] W43372: ip means your ip adress for windows [06:11] <^paradox^> Flannel: here it is http://pastebin.com/6N1aGHbu [06:11] I don't know if anyone else has notice that when you have a dark 'selected items' background color, even with white text for your gtk theme, the menu; 'file, edit, view, go, message, etc. text stays black in Thunderbird, rendering that item virtually unreadable. Is there a fix for this either than 'pick a lighter color'? [06:11] W43372: and its \\ [06:11] <_Techie_> zipper, gksudo {fav editor} /boot/grub/grub.cfg [06:11] hmm [06:11] just wondering... windows 7 requires ntfs partition right ? [06:11] <_Techie_> im having major sound problems on a fresh lucid install, all sound played through my soundcard is just noise [06:11] my mic on sony vaio laptop is not wokring on lucid.. any suggestions, please? [06:11] !menu [06:11] <^paradox^> Flannel: thats from the upgrade simulation command u gave me [06:12] jetpacktuxedo , how to i do that =.=" sorry i am new [06:12] ^paradox^: Alright, you are certainly up to date. Are you using a desktop? Ubuntu? Kubuntu? [06:12] ThatGuyOverThere: the one i use https://launchpad.net/~sevenmachines/+archive/flash [06:12] gogeta1 not working [06:12] yo, how can I change the menus buttons to the left ? [06:12] gogeta1 command not found [06:12] zipper, I'll pm you so we can focus [06:12] greezmunkey, are you there i have an idea, i deleted some of the items found under other earlier, i think this may be the root of my issues, [06:12] !controls | Black_Phantom [06:12] Black_Phantom: In Lucid, the minimize, maximize, and close buttons have been moved to the left side. For more information, please see http://alturl.com/b6ja | To move them back to the right-hand side, see http://alturl.com/x5d6 [06:12] W43372: do it from natuls lol [06:12] IdleOne thanks [06:12] <^paradox^> Flannel: im using ubuntu 8.04 lts desktop edition [06:12] FeasibilityStudy: My apologies for what may look like impatience. Did you get my last message? [06:13] Zelozelos: Did you back them up? [06:13] Hi - need help troubleshooting missing sound on lucid with creative x-fi extreem audio sound card? [06:13] ^paradox^: Alright, does `sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop` do anything but tell you "ubuntu-desktop is already at the newest version"? [06:13] W43372: sorry forgot to metion that [06:13] greezmunkey, no, could you open your edit menu's , and list some of them, i just may know which ones to replace [06:14] settings seem to be ok at first look - no idea what is happening under the bonnet..? [06:14] woooooot g15stats was updated :D [06:14] <^paradox^> Flannel: let me run that command and see [06:14] W43372: should tell it to go to a network share with that ip [06:14] Fishscene1: No what was the problem again? [06:14] in the repos that is [06:14] ok just a sec [06:14] My problem is that I have downloaded and burned 2 iso images of Ubuntu 64-bit on a CD. One came from bittorrent, the other from a USA mirror. I pop the cd in my drive and boot from it, as soon as it loads the screen with the dots on it, I can press the esc-key and there is a message saying something about an error in line 7 of a file(?). On my 2nd cd, I get further messages stating that it can't mount /dev/sda(b)(c) up to about (f) and then it just kind [06:14] gogeta1 not working [06:14] W43372: ir saying timeout or something [06:14] ithink i fubaredmy install [06:15] <_pHI_> is there a way to issue a custom mkfs.ext4 in the ubuntu installer? I basically want to do both fdisk and mkfs.ext4 in the console (ALT+F1) and avoid that ubuntu re-runs mkfs.ext4 ... is that possible? [06:15] gogeta1 it's not doing anything [06:15] chad: another pc [06:15] Fishscene1: is your HD plugged in? [06:15] chad: but i do need help [06:15] i know its a silly question [06:15] gogeta1 just errors, could not handle networks, not found, etc [06:15] Yes. I'm running off of it right now :) [06:15] Zelozelos: open edit menus from where? [06:15] :D ok [06:15] <^paradox^> Flannel: it does ubuntu desktop is already the newest version [06:15] brandon_, what was the problem agean? [06:15] greezmunkey, right click on applications, click edit menus [06:15] ^paradox^: Hmm. Well, I'd do what it suggests, and report it as a bug. It could very well be. [06:15] greezmunkey, navigate to other [06:15] HELP! Upgraded to 10.04 and now usb mouse and keyboard are not working. Visible in lsusb. Any ideas? [06:16] i have a question [06:16] Fishscene1: idk thats out of my relm of knowledge, but a wild guess would be maybe your board isnt supported? [06:16] chad: my wirless hasnt worked on ubuntu 10.4 im using broadcom [06:16] It's possible, but very unfortunate =( [06:16] !ndiswrapper | brandon_ [06:16] brandon_: Wireless documentation, including how-to guides and troubleshooting information, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs [06:16] Fishscene1: dont take my word for it :P [06:16] hi i killed my gnome, it just loads into xterm. how can i set it back up in a console to use gnome. [06:16] <^paradox^> Flannel: does it mean i cant upgrade? whats the likelyhood of that? [06:16] lol. Should I file a bug report? [06:17] Fishscene1: go for it [06:17] W43372: then its not connecting to windows at all [06:17] <_pHI_> any ideas? [06:17] Fishscene1: maybe even a ubuntu forums post [06:17] ^paradox^: Are you using any ppa's? [06:17] Zelozelos: I have nothing under "other" [06:17] ^paradox^: Nah, if you'd like to upgrade tonight we can get you upgraded no problem. [06:17] W43372: its done me no good this is a 10.4 problem, im looking for a simple fox [06:17] ok. Thanks everyone [06:17] ^paradox^: seems that some people who experience that error have it go away if they switch mirrors [06:17] W43372: did you allow the samba port to be open in linux [06:17] W43372: fix [06:17] greezmunkey, hmm interesting, well im all outta ideas [06:17] <_Techie_> im having major sound problems on a fresh lucid install, all sound played through my soundcard is just noise [06:17] gogeta1 I could ping it [06:17] <^paradox^> Jordan_U: yes im using some ppas [06:17] to all people; sorry i'm not seed my torrent, caused running out of my bandwidth. truly sorry a lot. [06:18] brandon_, here you go http://lmgtfy.com/?q=ubuntu%2C+wi-fi%2C+brodcom&l=1 [06:18] W43372: ping and connecting are diffrent matters [06:18] ^paradox^: what I'd do right now is disable all third party repos, try upgrading again, if that doesn't work, switch from us.archive to just regular archive, and try again [06:18] gogeta1 what do I do? [06:18] chad: thanks i take a look :D [06:18] thats the only thing i did besides watch a couple of movies around the time they las worked [06:18] W43372: sounds like youneed to open the samba port [06:18] W43372: type smbtree in a terminal, see what you get. [06:18] ^paradox^: They're likely the cause, try "ppa-purge" to remove their packages (it's not the repo being in your sources.lst but rather the package themselves) [06:18] Can anyone help me get jumbo frames working in lynx? [06:18] chad: google is not acceptable support in this channel. Please don't ever do that again. Thanks [06:18] i have a question, how does me menu in the new lucid, "receive" a message? how does that show up? [06:19] i guess till i fig out what's wrong ill just make a nautilus launcher on my desktop [06:19] how is xubuntu lucid working out for everyone? about to upgrade possibly [06:19] Flannel will eat your babys for that [06:19] how do i select a "program to use" when opening a link inside an application?

[06:19] it brings up the file browser and i'm not sure where to locate my internet browser [06:19] Zelozelos: Other than goog around for clues, I can't help [06:19] karma_police: 8 gb [06:19] karma_police, what ever colour you want hon [06:19] karma_police: 6 gigs should be enough, even bit of an overkill for a 64bit system [06:20] I've tried setting my MTU but it never persists [06:20] i'm trying to use rsync to sync a directory structure between two computers, but i only want the .png files to transfer.... i am trying with "--include'**.png'" but it isn't working! any words of advice [06:20] greezmunkey, tok, thanks for trying anyhow, its bed time 4 me [06:20] brandon_: based on what? What's the reasonin behind 8G? [06:20] anyone using lucid xubuntu?? [06:20] Does 10.4 LTS Server have an alternate version? Or is it just now 10.4 LTS Server/ [06:20] Does anyone here use KVM? [06:20] *alternate cd [06:20] Butch128: There is an alternate CD, yes. [06:20] gogeta1 http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/425011/ [06:20] do thepartitions need tobe logicalorprimary for the swap and main partitions? [06:20] ha1331 My rule of thumb is double the physical if you want excellent performance [06:20] where are the "program files" directories at to give it a windows analogy is my question? [06:20] Flannel: Where the heck do you download it? http://releases.ubuntu.com/lucid/ only lists the desktop alternate [06:21] sorry for typos.. onmy netbook troubleshooting desktop install [06:21] morning all [06:21] itilious: /etc is full of the actual config files [06:21] <__Techie__> im having major sound problems on a fresh lucid install, all sound played through my soundcard is just noise [06:21] anyone know what the pgm name is for the menu bar? [06:21] Butch128: "alternate" CD is "alternate" CD, there's no such thing as a "server alternate" CD [06:21] <^paradox^> Jordan_U: ok hang on. im in synaptic right now looking at my third party sources just to get an idea what i have [06:21] itilious: /bin and /usr/bin is full of the binarys [06:21] brandon_: ok. Well I have 8G of ram, never seen more than 512MB of swap used, so how would 16G improve performance? [06:21] guys, any one what "receiving a message" with the memenu looks like? what is the functionality about ? [06:21] i guess its called a menu bar widget [06:22] I'm having this issue: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gzip/+bug/524366. Any kind souls running Lucid that could dl the mentioned tar.gz and see if they have the same problem? [06:22] itilious: some configuration files for individual users is in their home dir prefixed with a . [06:22] hi guys, can someone tell me which package contains the sys-V-IPC PHP module? [06:22] Yo yo yo [06:22] zen--, is that where i need to select the appliction to use for thunderbird to open a link for example? ;) [06:22] Butch128: Server CD ad Alternate CD (and minimal CD) use debian-installer (the text based installer). Desktop CD uses ubiquity (LiveCD + Installer). From the Alternate CD, you can install a desktop system (default) or a commad line system (removed from the menu, but hit f4 or f5 and you can select it) [06:22] My edge scrolling on my touchpad has stopped working as of Lucid, there is a bug report but it only affects myself and one other person ( different laptops ) anyone have any insight as to how i can get this working? [06:22] what does the mount point neeed to be for the install partition? i'm a noob [06:22] ha1331: if all 16 gig is used, which i have seen in professional work like egnering sims [06:22] yo right back atcha ActionParsnip === papul is now known as papul|offline [06:22] karma_police, its just a / [06:22] karma_police: you need at least a / mount point [06:22] Shuss: try: dpkg -s sysiv* [06:23] W43372: have you tryed with the gui to connect to windows [06:23] is 10.04 xubuntu worth upgrading to? [06:23] gogeta1 ? [06:23] does it need to beprimry or logical? [06:23] itilious: yeah it should be in /usr/bin [06:23] Flannel: Huh.. I just installed a RAID/LVM setup using the alternate cd, and it booted into a GUI.. didn't expect that.. [06:23] W43372: ubuntu has a gui for samba === papul|offline is now known as papul [06:23] ha1331: however that would be only if you wanted to hibernate [06:23] posting my issues in the forums for now, thanks anyway dudes [06:23] karma_police: even though a separate / and /home would be beneficial if you ever upgrade the distro or just to have your app data/media safe in case the system craps out [06:23] Flannel: your message would make a great ubottu factoid... [06:23] ActionParsnip, thanks, will try [06:23] do you have a working link to ubuntu 10.04 dvd torrents [06:23] gogeta1 ok [06:23] Karma_police: you need at least / and maybe a small /swap [06:23] Butch128: right, you want to hit f5 and choose "Install a command line system" or whatever it is. [06:23] thank you for everyone, problem solved! not this far without you guys! [06:23] brandon_: ok, was just intrested. [06:23] Flannel: hahaha.... oops... [06:23] uh-oh... /usr.bin/X11/Z not found [06:24] why is the dvd iso hard to find [06:24] Wooo [06:24] JetPackTuxedo: thats not good :P [06:24] does the / need to be primary or logical? [06:24] Dark-knight: if you have jaunty or later and its working, why fix it [06:24] Flannel: Thanks... last time i did this with 9.10 it didn't have that.. or maybe it did.. long time, thanks [06:24] karma_police, are you installing over an existing version ? [06:24] W43372: eh may not work for the issue your havin [06:24] So, can I do the distribution upgrade from a non main server? 40kb/s is painfully slow. [06:24] Butch128: 9.10 did, it was either 9.04 or 8.10 that was the last time it had its own menu entry [06:24] zen--, yeah, I noticed. How on earth do I fix it? [06:24] yes. i deleted linux mint to install 10.04.. still have win7 on same hdd [06:24] MilitantPotato: you can do it from any repository mirror, yes. [06:24] hay i am polish [06:24] JetPackTuxedo: is this a fresh install? [06:24] <^paradox^> Jordan_U: if i disable all these im not sure ill be able remember them all once im upgraded to 10.04 and the thing is these made things work [06:25] karma_police: ideally you'd want about 20-30Gb for /, 6gb for swap and the rest goes for /home [06:25] anyone know how to reset the menubar icons to their original location? [06:25] zen--, i chose firefox3.5 vs firefox and it worked :) [06:25] Karma_police: make it primary and /swap can be primary. If you want less complication later make a partition for /home too. You can have up to 4 primary partitions [06:25] curious now why the two? [06:25] W43372: is that box windows 7 [06:25] zen--, no. I don't think it was even an upgrade. I was just fixing some broken dependencies [06:25] itilious: yay :D [06:25] are there working links to dvd iso's for 10.04 yet? [06:25] would / needto be primary or logical? [06:25] karma_police, ok, its gonna be primary, logical is another way of saying swap sorta [06:25] gogeta1 xp [06:25] Flannel: using which command? [06:25] zen--, any reason it might be simply firefox though, why the two? [06:25] k.. ty [06:25] !download | keithweisshar [06:25] keithweisshar: Ubuntu installation CDs can be downloaded from http://releases.ubuntu.com - Mirrors can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Mirrors - PLEASE use the !torrents to download !Lucid, and help keeping the servers' load low! [06:25] karma_police: primary [06:25] karma_police: I think some older bioses might need /boot to be primary and near the front of the disk, but recent ones don't and even / can be secondary (it often will be if you're booting multiple linux OSes) [06:25] a logical drive is for windows/swap is for linux [06:25] actionparsnip thats essentially what i was asking, i'm perfectly content with 9.10 as it seems to be working just fine [06:26] MilitantPotato: Go to software sources and select another mirror [06:26] Why do I get "SIOCSFTMU: Inv. Arg." when i try to sudo ifconfig eth0 mtu 9000 [06:26] if we're going to use dhcp then all we need is dhcpcd installed? [06:26] alright time to fire up the movie.. lets hope the vlc packaged with lucid doesn't come with a buttload of bugs :P [06:26] why should ubuntu be downloaded via torrent rather than direct download? [06:26] Dark-knight: karmic is supported til next year at least so i'd hang on. You could always backup using partimage or somesuch and upgrade. If its bad you can roll back [06:26] itilious: i know that actually typing firefox into the terminal is just a script that launches firefox im not exactly sure, i ran into this problem when was debugging firefox [06:27] karma_police, actually, you shouldnt have 2 answer that , all you need to do is select the existing partition, click on change === chad is now known as palin2012 [06:27] cześć [06:27] KeithWeisshar: less load on the servers [06:27] KeithWeisshar: There likely is, but DVDs aren't mirrored a whole lot of places, so it's likely they're just on the main servers (which are too slow to be functional right now) [06:27] blacksunseven: ethernet max packet size is 1514 [06:27] Keithweisshar: less strain on the servers and faster speed [06:27] W43372: have you tryed places connect to server [06:27] karma_police, check the format box, put the / in mount point [06:27] n thats all [06:27] as created Sat Jan 30 2010 at 01:14:01 CET [06:27] jordan.freenode.net ircd-seven- [06:27] KeithWeisshar: because we're already grateful for a free o.s. and don't wanna rape the mirrors unnecessarily.. also some people (like poor canadians) live in heavily throttled countries so they are forced to dl directly === administrator is now known as Guest33884 [06:28] bittorrent sometimes crashes my router, it overflows the nat table on the actiontec mi424wr [06:28] zen--, right on thanks for the help :) [06:28] <^paradox^> Jordan_U: if im gonna have to go through a few different things, especially complex things, im gonna need hand with it [06:28] hello [06:28] greezmunkey: so how do I enable jumbo frame support? [06:28] KeithWeisshar: if you are experiencing technical issues with torrenting, by all means hit the servers [06:28] ha noi [06:28] karma_police, you wont need to mess with swap, it should be already set for your mem/hd size [06:28] ok I want to completely remove and reinstall my proftp package because i seem to ahve broke it, but it never completely goes away and restarts the install, any idea why not? [06:28] Keithweisshar: moderate you download speed in your client [06:28] itilious: no problem glad i can help [06:28] ss [06:28] ss [06:28] ss [06:28] '~$ sudo apt-get dist-upgrade' returns: "0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to removeand 0 not upgraded.'

[06:29] RTL8111DL [06:30] ^paradox^: This isn't a complete solution, but do-release-upgrade has a great feature that I'm surprised isn't advertised more, a "sandbox" mode. [06:30] Lasivian: can you paste the output from the install into http://ubuntu.pastebin.com and tell is the url?

[06:30] Lasivian: or what ActionParsnip said... [06:30] bullgard4: it's all good, no problems, you are ready to go, problem solved [06:30] bullgard4: if you ran rc or beta it has been updated to final [06:31] Keithweisshar: restrict the number of connections in you client then. Shame you are limited by crappy hardware [06:31] bullgard4: you're all set == you already have everything you need [06:31] I screwed something up it seems [06:31] KeithWeisshar: its possible [06:31] beyondcr, goto system,about ubuntu [06:31] KeithWeisshar: could also be crappy firmware... what r u running on your router? [06:31] KeithWeisshar: my old 2wire used to get really hot and slow [06:31] if the nat table on the router becomes full the internet connection can freeze for several minutes and cause all networked users to lose internet connectivity for a period of time [06:31] if i am running netbook [06:31] <^paradox^> Jordan_U: whats that mean? [06:31] KeithWeisshar: and what is your router in the first place (sorry if i missed it) [06:31] ^paradox^: Basically, before starting the upgrade it make all of your system directories read only and stores any files that you try to change in /tmp, so you can try the upgrade and when you reboot everything will be "undone" (or rather, never really done in the first place) [06:31] elo [06:32] Lasivian: then your packages are out of whack and you need to square them off. You may have to edit some of apt's files to allow the removal [06:32] I was wondering where you can find the source code for things that are open source (particularly file compression tools for studying) [06:32] blacksunseven: is this your error: SIOCGMIIPHY on 'eth0' failed [06:32] Verizon Branded ActionTec MI424-WR [06:32] zen--, I think I might have fixed it now. Maybe. Need to restart to be sure [06:32] ActionParsnip: eep.. k :S [06:32] JetPackTuxedo: hm did you use dpkg? [06:32] Hi! Just upgraded from 9.10 to 10.04 (netbook remix). How do I get the window buttons (close, minimise, maximise) back to their RIGHT POSITIONS. [06:32] JetPackTuxedo: im interested [06:32] greezmunkey: No, my exact error is: SIOCSIFMTU: Invalid argument [06:32] It's a MI424-WR Rev. D [06:32] heyias, I have a Ubuntu 9.10 Server installed on a box using the JeOS install mode, doing an upgrade to 10.04 however its saying it wants to pull in xorg! any idea how to make it not 'upgrade' to a full server install and rather stay the JeOS mode? [06:32] FuzzyShoting: thats the new look dispite are protest [06:33] FuzzyShoting: you can do it with ailurus [06:33] zen--, yeah, I just booted to the terminal and am fixing the dependencies. [06:33] KeithWeisshar: you may wanna consider running openwrt on it if they have a release for your hardware, which is quite possible [06:33] FuzzyShoting: s/is/in [06:33] Fuzzyshoting: websearch for: lucid lynx move buttons to right ubuntu geek [06:33] JetPackTuxedo: ah i see, good luck [06:33] Why's the 10.04-alternate installer asking me for inserting another CD?! [06:33] KeithWeisshar: on the plus side you get to learn more about linux by running it :D [06:33] i'm not allowed to use any third paryt firmware on the router [06:33] ty for the help.. i set / primary with 60 gb and 5.2gb for swap and /home with 100gb [06:33] Jordan_U: it isn't advertised because no-one can figure out what 'Test upgrade with a sandbox aufs overlay' in the man page actually means... [06:33] gogeta1: "Ubuntu does again". [06:33] the router is also used for fios tv [06:33] zen--, thanks. It's unpacking stuff still. [06:34] hello #ubuntu! [06:34] Fuzzyshoting: there are thousands of guides for this online dude. Suprised you asked at all but the ubuntu geek is a good call. S'what I used. [06:34] ty zen-- ActionParsnip [06:34] OMG [06:34] FuzzyShoting: yea it got a wave of complants to move em back but they didnt [06:34] KeithWeisshar: i have a similiar set up, one main router that has a bunch of baby IPTV boxes [06:34] THIS IS MY PLACE [06:34] !controls [06:34] In Lucid, the minimize, maximize, and close buttons have been moved to the left side. For more information, please see http://alturl.com/b6ja | To move them back to the right-hand side, see http://alturl.com/x5d6 [06:34] KeithWeisshar: in that case buy your own... tp-link 1043nd can be had for under $70, the hardware rocks and openwrt works great on it [06:34] zen--, aaaaannnnndddddd... it's only in the G's. I have a loooonnnnggggg way to go. [06:34] i'm not allowed to change the firmware on the router to a non-verizon firmware [06:34] How can I tell what kind of touchpad I have ( the hardware? Alps/synaptics) [06:34] ActionParsnip: Did a simple search. Thought I'd ask someone who had heard the question before [06:34] i messed up to start with and had / as logical and was getting grub error [06:34] KeithWeisshar: whats your dl/ul speeds? i got 18mbps/1.5 [06:34] Gogeta: my dad likes it. Can't please em all but its fully changeable ;) [06:34] empathy's notification sound is like the one in the plan when they make the announcements, this is so awesome [06:34] I have installed Ubuntu 10.4, however, for some reason I am missing the sound control on the toolbar. What I should do? [06:34] *plane [06:34] ^paradox^: The problem being that the one thing you can't test is that the next boot after upgrading will work. But a combination of trying the liveCD (to be sure nothing big is broken by default) and doing a test upgrade should cover most possible problems [06:34] <^paradox^> Jordan_U: the upgrade disabled some of my third party sources before failing. if what you say is true then can reneable them and try what youre saying? [06:35] Fuzyshoting: too many times [06:35] ActionParsnip: what you can change em back [06:35] JetPackTuxedo: yeah i was installed codecs earlier and i took like 2 hours [06:35] KeithWeisshar: another option, if you're less adventurous, is to get a linksys wrt54gl and run tomato on it.. its rock solid even when bonding 3 dsl connections and torrenting the living s*** outta them [06:35] ActionParsnip: looking up that [06:35] i get 1mb/sec dl [06:35] Fuzyshoting: gonna propose a factoid when I get back from work [06:35] alrighty [06:35] i got a new problem [06:35] lucid runs nice on my acer aoa [06:35] KeithWeisshar: damn man your paying for fios and your getting that kinda bandwich, that sucks [06:35] Hey i'll do a dist upgrade, from karmic to 10.04... will I lose any configs ? [06:35] blacksunseven: I'm not finding much in the way of reliable jumbo frame(s) support for that card. There are a few drivers around, but you probably are better off with MTU 1500 until you can locate a fix. [06:35] I NEED HELP WITH GPARTED =/ [06:35] not able to unmount [06:36] paris, does clicking the icon give you controls? [06:36] KeithWeisshar: in that case buy the cheapest piece of hardware you can run openwrt on as it's GUARANTEED to be better than what you have now [06:36] my fios speed is 20/5 [06:36] ^paradox^: It only "disabled" them in that no updates will be downloaded from them, the packages you already installed from them were not first downgraded to their "standard" versions [06:36] greezmunkey: durn [06:36] zen--, the downloads are done, it's just setting stuff up. and MAN IS IT SLOW. Haha [06:36] zipper: have you tried booting it into the different moods [06:36] FuzzyShooting: Pref -> Appearance and chose New Wave or Clearlooks and the min,max buttons go to the right. [06:36] IdleOne: gogeta1 Flannel Great! I already have 10.04 LTS at present. Wow! -- All messages are congruent. -- Thank you very much for your help. [06:36] JetPackTuxedo: dont ya just hate those release days ;) [06:36] 1mb/sec means 1 megabytes per seconds [06:36] bullgard4: anytime :) [06:36] zen-- how do i that? [06:36] fios speed is in megabits [06:36] Gogeta1: indeed. I don't see what all the fuss is for. I hate firefox but I just change it to uninstalled. Lots of reviews slamming it [06:36] hi want to upgrade my 9.04 to 10.4 how much time does it take to upgrade using the dialup connection [06:36] don't quite underrstand the mac buttons on the left... lol [06:36] heyias, I have a Ubuntu 9.10 Server installed on a box using the JeOS install mode, doing an upgrade to 10.04 however its saying it wants to pull in xorg! any idea how to make it not 'upgrade' to a full server install and rather stay the JeOS mode? [06:36] blacksunseven: your error has been around for that card since at least 2006 [06:36] KeithWeisshar: ahhh ok.. 20/5 would require something more robust.. look into the tplink 1043nd.. dirt cheap, great hardware, can probably handle 3x the speed with no issues :) [06:37] zen--, Yeah, since I have been running RC for a week and didn't realize today was release day until I got on here. Lol [06:37] karma_police: there are scripts out there that you can run and bring'em back where they belong :) [06:37] ^paradox^: One really nifty trick about the sandbox upgrade is that they keep one system directortory actually writable, /var/chache/apt, so you don't have to redownload the packages for the real upgrade [06:37] In fstab what are the last two values? I believe they are called dump and pass [06:37] zipper: your using the live cd version of gparted right? when it goes into boot you should be able to select differnt types, like disable x, safe mode [06:37] zipper: stuff like that [06:37] karma_police: http://img688.imageshack.us/img688/7358/screenshotnw.png [06:37] i'm also not allowed to bridge another router because it would cause tv to not work [06:37] i know.. i like the new wave theme anyway and it fixes it back [06:37] Nv'; seems one of your packages likes xorg. You can review with: dpkg -l | less [06:37] JetPackTuxedo: i knew it was soon, but not today [06:37] ActionParsnip: gconftool-2 --set /apps/metacity/general/button_layout --type string “menu:minimize,maximize,close” <--- This is the magic code? [06:37] ActionParsnip: no hate for firefix hear and its that wannabe osx look rather then being something nicer and none ever liked the left sided buttions on osx [06:37] firefox [06:38] your are suck [06:38] greezmunkey: ugh, i gotta buy a gbit nic? lame.. [06:38] KeithWeisshar: that sounds like some bullshit [06:38] hi want to upgrade my 9.04 to 10.4 how much time does it take to upgrade using the dialup connection [06:38] zen-- hmmm i installed it thru the terminal [06:38] zen--, exactly. Haha. It's rebooting now. *fingers crossed* [06:38] ohhhh i see, never mind then :) [06:38] Fuzzyshoting: that's exactly it. It will remain permanent too [06:38] KeithWeisshar: yikes... nazi germany here we come... doesn't surprise me from verizon.. they're the most canadian of all u.s. telecoms and i don't mean it as a compliment [06:38] JetPackTuxedo: good luck! :D [06:38] blacksunseven: what do you do with that machine, mostly...Internet? [06:38] i am your god [06:38] urhh [06:38] FiReSTaRT, please no godwins :( [06:38] ActionParsnip: It does work. However, I am missing the close button [06:38] is it possible to run scripts as sudo on boot without needing to enter the password for each one? [06:38] greezmunkey: a ton of file transferring/serving [06:38] zipper: ive never used gparted in OS, only the live cd [06:38] <^paradox^> Jordan_U: id like them working again. thing is im in the process of trying to get disability and im not gonna have the money to get a more current pc for at least a year and a half [06:38] zipper: sorry [06:38] almost done installing.. hope this works.. lol [06:38] ugh! [06:39] elky: godwins? translation pls :) [06:39] blacksunseven: over the Internet, or a LAN? [06:39] FireCrotch_, "godwin's law" [06:39] greezmunkey: LAN [06:39] ActionParsnip: i cant see anything in it easily thats pulling in x (xorg is currently not installed), any way to see what package is pulling it in after the upgrade? I suspect perhaps a new version of a package has xorg as a dep, but the old version didnt [06:39] FiReSTaRT, "godwin's law" [06:39] Fuzzyshoting: review the command, make sure you add close to the end. Partial command copy paste is bad [06:39] if i run apt-get dist-upgrade i'll be using ubuntu 10 ? i have 9.10 version [06:39] ^paradox^: You'll be able to re-enable them after the upgrade (if they support lucid) [06:39] elky: ill need to wikipedia that lol [06:39] xjkx: No [06:39] blacksunseven: then check the hardware compatibility page(s) and get a good one.

Almost couldn't tell the difference [06:40] blacksunseven: if you ran updates in the last 2 days you are lts [06:40] This still works in Lucid? ---> ln -sf ../usr/share/zoneinfo/your/zone /etc/localtime [06:40] !.

[07:28] <__dantheman> to see if your running fglrx [07:28] sebsebseb: its not that problem.. The problem is with the repo it uses.. I can hardly do any upgrades to my packages because of this.. I used another repo (the one from my university) wich goes pretty fast.. But I can't choose to download the packages for lucid from that repo while upgrading.. So, i've downloaded the alternate cd to upgrade my system using that.. it says "Use this method if the system being upgraded is not connected to the internet", but wh [07:28] en the upgrade is getting the packages there are some packages that seem to be corrupted, so it tries to download from the Internet.. and then it download all the subsequents.. [07:28] rumpsy: it's executable, right? ls -l /etc/rc.local [07:29] [solved] [07:29] aqeel, does anything show under System >> Administration >> Hardware Drivers?

[07:29] Ramb0: there may be issues now with nearly all mirrors, since the amount of people getting Lucid [07:29] Loshki: how to check that its executed, and i know that its a executable file [07:29] Ramb0: then run the update manager [07:29] Is an updated Lucid Lynx beta 1 the same as the final release, or do I need to reinstall? [07:29] sunk8 nothing shows up on that [07:30] lucas-arg: Synaptic is no tool to translate Ubuntu to Spanish.

[07:30] hi, does startx require root permissions ? [07:30] aqeel, check if you have 'xserver-xorg-video-radeon' package installed. [07:30] bullgard4: i know, it gives an error if i try to use it when the system language is in spanish [07:30] selig5: if you upgrade the usaul way like you would for security updates, you will have all the updates, but they may not have installed properly giving you all the features [07:30] sebsebseb: thanks for the help anyways.. And about the mirrors.. It could be, but the connection from where I want to download its from my university, and from here is pretty fast :p [07:30] ubuntu 9 was working perfectly [07:30] rumpsy: add echo "about to start script" >> /tmp/log.file.

[07:39] yes :) [07:39] archayl: I don't know then, but there shoudn't have been any by default as far as I know [07:39] ^paradox^: Maybe shortly after 10.04.1 [07:39] <__dantheman> nice [07:39] sebsebseb: yeah. that's what bugging me [07:39] Hi all [07:40] where can i get ubuntu 64 bit [07:40] <__dantheman> from the website [07:40] bullgard4: may I pm you? [07:40] archayl: maybe they have the rights now, and put it in since the music store [07:40] its only 32 bit [07:40] <__dantheman> under the big green button [07:40] http://paste.ubuntu.com/425043/ please tell me how to fix this [07:40] <^paradox^> Jordan_U: ok but what would the be? im not looking for exact figures ;-). about three months? [07:40] see alternative option [07:40] archayl: however in that case, the release notes stuff should mention that [07:40] Loshki: Yes. [07:40] <__dantheman> Alternativ download options [07:40] I know it was an issue just before release, but grub is giving me an error. "out of disk" with only one HDD installed. Solutions? [07:40] Just to confirm. On a Core i5 machine would the correct link to downloading 64bit ubuntu be the: 64-bit PC (AMD64) desktop CD one? [07:40] jaja [07:40] epsañol [07:40] <^paradox^> that* [07:40] español [07:41] !es [07:41] 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. [07:41] <__dantheman> k00giez: click Alternative download options [07:41] __dantheman, it works, but i'll wait for now, because i don't want to update in a rush, and it does make the button appear, but only in the instance of the update manager launched (not when i open again the normal-non-sudo one). [07:41] sebsebseb: that makes sense, i'll try to do more research on this. How about from your side? [07:41] <__dantheman> moza: probably a good idea [07:41] !es [07:41] archayl: I guess find someone else with a clean install and MP3's, and find out if they also have support by default, or something [07:41] ok lost [07:41] Denis: you want the i386 one for Core i5 [07:41] sebsebseb: not for mp3 but its pretty simple [07:41] archayl: got a RC in vm. got final downloaded in ISO also for a vm. running another distro as my host :) [07:42] Anyone else been having dhclient causing shutdowns to stall? [07:42] any facing an issue with mouse not working in flash apps? [07:42] hi folks [07:42] um [07:42] archayl: other computer runs Karmic not upgraded to Lucid yet, I plan to do it tommorow [07:42] gogeta1: right, but [07:42] gogeta1: indeed, but [07:42] I have ubuntu 10 04 beta release on my comp.. how do i update it to stable release which is released today [07:42] sebsebseb: try to play a mp3 and it will ask to download the supported libs [07:42] no, a core i5 is 64bit and uses the amd64 instruction set [07:42] gogeta1: yes I know, but [07:42] rjcroy: where can I find that? [07:42] Ubuntu 10 startup takes more time than Ubuntu 9.10 [07:42] am i right [07:42] gogeta1: archayl said they had MP3 support on a clean install [07:42] ^paradox^: 8.04.1 came out on July 3'rd [07:42] thanks to all members in irc..I finally got into 10.04 inspite of many errors...this is cool :D [07:42] rjcroy: I checked on website, but it doesn't seem to change the download even if I select 64bit [07:42] roark: if you update today, the updates will be the stable release versions [07:43] sebsebseb: they never wil have out of the box mp4 being its not oss [07:43] is there any way to configure the notification applet in the task bar to use a different email app than evolution? I'm not particularly fond of evolution [07:43] sebsebseb: update me on your results later [07:43] mp3 [07:43] rjcroy: using update-manager -d ? [07:43] gogeta1: well the MP3 patents are running out soon I belive [07:43] ok a nuke went of here! [07:43] sebsebseb: then maybe then [07:43] <^paradox^> Jordan_U: ah ok. well i can check on it too [07:43] gogeta1: also Ubuntu isn't only freesoftware/opensource by default [07:43] <__dantheman> ogg is way better anyways [07:43] hi there [07:43] Ak users [07:43] rjcroy: my wireless stopped working all of a sudden... I hope updates will correct it [07:44] gogeta1: sudo apt-get install vrms and find out what non free software, you have installed in Ubuntu, from the repo's, by the way [07:44] sebsebseb: it is but they include them as addons in the repos === lanh_ is now known as Airi [07:44] anyone else have broken samba shares since upgrading to lucid? [07:44] gogeta1: it is to what? [07:44] He he MINT! [07:44] roark: yes I think so. Looks good to ne [07:44] me [07:44] sebsebseb: all oss on install [07:44] gogeta1: no it isn't [07:44] gogeta1: use the program I just suggested [07:44] !freedom | gogeta1 [07:44] gogeta1: freedom is important. Ubuntu is as free as we can make it, which means mostly free software. See http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/licensing [07:44] ok [07:44] or your could do sudo apt-get update [07:45] sebsebseb: name one non oss package on defult [07:45] Hi,, which is better ? apt-get or aptitude ? [07:45] and sudo apt-get dist-upgrade [07:45] it's work? [07:45] !best | plutonium45 [07:45] plutonium45: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. [07:45] #omg [07:45] <^paradox^> Jordan_U: what does the unsupported updates do? thats the last thing bugging me [07:45] gogeta1: I got to go soon, run the program I told you to install, that will tell you [07:45] Hi, is it possible to upgrade from 7.10 to the latest release? I only have 7.04, (which I have upgraded), on CD and my burner doesn't seem to want to burn the latest version [07:45] this bot is cool [07:45] sebsebseb: cant name one lol\ [07:45] good night [07:45] after upgrading to lucid, brightness buttons (fn + f5/f6) are not working on my sony vaio NW series. any suggestions, please? [07:45] <^paradox^> Jordan_U: then im outta here. getting tired [07:45] gogeta1: also the above factoid said mostly [07:45] plutonium45: its Jordan_U who made bot do whatever it did :) [07:46] gogeta1: I have to go soon seriously, I don't have time for this nonsense [07:46] sebsebseb: im aware of the repos i said on the cd [07:46] Airi: right last one for now, you. you can upgrade to 8.04, and then from that to 10.04, however you should probably do a clean install really of 10.04 [07:47] gogeta1: on the CD it isn't 100% freesoftware/opensource either [07:47] Hi. Could someone show me a link to a 64bit download for core i5 processor. Is http://releases.ubuntu.com/lucid/ubuntu-10.04-desktop-amd64.iso the correct one? [07:47] sebsebseb: and you still have to enable univers and non free by hand [07:47] plutonium45: aptitude, update-manager, and apt-get are all just different interfaces to the same system [07:47] what the hell happened to transmission, is it a mac version>???? [07:47] they all do the same job just as effectively [07:47] Thanks sebsebseb, how do I upgrade to 8.04 from 7.10? [07:47] where did the right click go, why is single-left click asking me if i want to show the app [07:47] of course, that's why i clicked it [07:47] who made this decision [07:47] Hi! In Lucid there is no directory /etc/Wireless what is the equivalent? [07:47] What are the sources that I need in the sources list? [07:48] sebsebseb: i cant think of 1 package that is not oss on the cd [07:48] gogeta1: if it was Ubuntu would be known as a free software only distro, like Debian or Gnewsense [07:48] Airi: I agree with sebsebseb. For such a large jump, a fresh install is probably the best way to go. You can try a cd-less install.... [07:48] ok? [07:48] !upgrade | Airi [07:48] Airi: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading [07:48] Why is the ubuntu installation slow, it's still stuck at retrieving file 17 of 28 [07:48] sebsebseb: even debain has such addon repos [07:48] Universal-USB-Installer.exe [07:48] how can i use Universal-USB-Installer.exe [07:48] gogeta1: yes, but by default it's free software only, unlike Ubuntu [07:49] Loshki: I can't do that without a working CD burner, I tried burning the 10.4 ISO 7 times, it's just wasting discs [07:49] why is it downloading updates during install [07:49] dude_: for waht is it? [07:49] sebsebseb: you still havent told me one non free on the cd [07:49] gogeta1: *even* debian. Such purists... [07:49] Hi. Could someone show me a link to a 64bit download for core i5 processor. Is http://releases.ubuntu.com/lucid/ubuntu-10.04-desktop-amd64.iso the correct one? [07:49] dude_: i dont think you want to run *.exe files on linux [07:49] theres one broken font..in my pc..its not allowing me to do update and upgrade..its giving damn errors..even dpk is not able to fix it..is there any way to force remove or force install before removing it ? [07:49] denis12345: yes [07:49] kk [07:49] àìåðèêîñè ïðåâåä ) [07:49] the update is stucik at file 17 of 28 [07:49] gogeta1: I have to go, but I expect someone else can tell you [07:49] dude: you can't in Linux. .exe files are windows executables. [07:49] Airi: http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/, see the 'frugal install' option... [07:49] gogeta1: however. Ubuntu One that's probably not open source or at least the server it uses [07:49] rjcroy: je can (wine) but i dont think he want it [07:49] I need to install manually firmware, I was told I have to put .dat into /etc/Wireless but there is no such directory Can u help me pls? [07:50] sebsebseb: acully i beleve it is [07:50] Julieeee: have you tried fwcutter? [07:50] denis12345: the "amd64" ones are the ones to use for 64-bit intel processors, yes [07:50] 0000 [07:50] iceroot: yeah, I think you are right. [07:50] try wine :P [07:50] There is always a way, somehow! [07:50] sebsebseb: i guess you can count the firefox link lol [07:50] anyone else have broken samba shares since upgrading to lucid? [07:50] iceroot, is it already installed? I don't have wired network. I am writing from my Windows partition [07:50] sebsebseb:how to set up USB support in Virtualbox probably? [07:50] why is the ubuntu installer waiting to download the updates? [07:50] Julieeee: i dont think so [07:51] ChinaForge: you can probably find out in #vbox or here later, I got to go [07:51] it says retrieving file 17 of 28 and it's not going [07:51] hi! sorry to disturb, but the Dist upgrade got stuck at "Preparing memtest86+". i'm upgrading from 9.10 (installed with Wubi), and followed the Upgrade Notes [07:51] KeithWeisshar: maybe its a big file which is needing time [07:51] <^paradox^> Jordan_U: Loshki: everyone else who replied thnx for the help. if everything was restored to normal when the upgrade failed im ok i guess [07:51] Julieeee: just create it with 'sudo mkdir /etc/Wireless' and then copy the .dat file into it... [07:51] where is mpt? i want to beat him up. [07:51] hey, how can i find out, if mesa is using direct or indirect rendering? [07:51] jruderman: awesome thanks [07:51] <__dantheman> jozsibacsi: glxinfo | grep direct [07:51] why is it automatically downloading updates during the install? [07:51] thanks [07:52] the download is stalled [07:52] i'm installing into vbox [07:52] <^paradox^> ill just give 10.04 two months and try again [07:52] the network light in vbox isn't flashing [07:52] and how can i switch mesa from direct to indirect rendering? [07:52] ^paradox^: next time I recommend a backup before the upgrade, and then you'll know for sure the state of your system [07:52] Loshki: I did, doesn't help, I have "siocsifflags: operation not permitted" error when I "ifconfig wlan0 up" [07:52] i just noticed when upgrading to 10.04 that one of my servers (originally 8.10 or 9.04 install I think) is running -generic kernel images, while the other (which is slightly older, and I believe was originally installed from an older version) is running -server images. is it just me, or shouldn't all Ubuntu server installs be using -server kernels? [07:53] So if I understand that correctly Loshki, I can install it in the separate partition from inside Windows? [07:53] after upgrading to lucid, brightness buttons (fn + f5/f6) are not working on my sony vaio NW series. any suggestions, please? [07:53] iceroot: I don't have wired network; I am writing from my Windows partition... [07:53] damn..I had Nginx in my desktop ..upgrade has over written the config file [07:53] I have lost all virtual hosts [07:53] <^paradox^> Loshki: i tried to copy home folder to my external hard drive but it stopped the copying saying i didnt have permission or something to that effect [07:54] i'm doing a clean install on a blank virtualbox drive [07:54] parasox say seems to be relly rough for a lts [07:54] <^paradox^> Loshki: im the only user of this computer [07:54] ^paradox^ why dont u use some backup tool like sysbackup or grsync or backintime? [07:54] Julieeee: well, it was worth a try. Any relevant messages in dmesg about loading firmware? [07:54] [aradox its stable for me [07:54] baa [07:54] I'll go off and give it a go :) [07:55] <^paradox^> sunk8: i didnt know about them [07:55] ^paradox^ u can run them as root and they'll do all your dirty work for u. [07:55] why is the the retreiving file process stalled during the install? [07:55] Loshki: I haven't looked; I'll check now... [07:55] the install won't finish if the donwload is stalled [07:55] does the installer need to download updates during installation? [07:55] KeithWeisshar: disconect the installer from the net before you install then it whont do that [07:56] ^paradox^ alternatively u can make a backup on your Ubuntu One account. 2 GB storage free for Ubuntu users. Visit http://one.ubuntu.com for more details. ;-) [07:56] <^paradox^> sunk8: ill look at them and before the next upgrade try to choose one [07:56] KeithWeisshar: so many people are installing today; the server may be overloaded... [07:56] how can i disconnect the installer from the net [07:56] KeithWeisshar: Usually the installer tries to get language packs on install if your are connected. [07:56] KeithWeisshar: dont connect to the net wile installing but there shoudent by any updates anyways [07:57] does the installer use the internet to download additonal software [07:57] KeithWeisshar: is the hard drive light blinking or the cd making noises? [07:57] KeithWeisshar: only launage packs [07:57] <^paradox^> well i guess oughta be hitting the old dusty trail. getting sleepy [07:57] no [07:57] Where can I find a torrent of a 64bit flash plugin for firefox? that works for 10.04 ubuntu? [07:57] KeithWeisshar: you can disconnect using the network manager widget at the top of the screen [07:57] i'm using the cd version [07:57] Ok, I just installed Ubuntu to a USB flash drive, and it's EXTREMELY slow. Is there anything I can do to speed it up? Perhaps some precache (superfetch) like Windows has? [07:57] does the dvd version also use the internet during install [07:58] KeithWeisshar: did you do the cd check? [07:58] join #ubuntu-cn [07:58] yes [07:58] hmm [07:58] it's stalled during download [07:58] KeithWeisshar: the internet is not required for installation === jay is now known as Guest3012 [07:58] KeithWeisshar: it /can/ pull from the net if you choose a language thats not on the cd (the dvd has more languages, i think) but iirc there should be a "skip" button [07:58] i tried to upgrade to ubuntu 10.04 and my grub seems broken (after rebooting) [07:58] KeithWeisshar: though skip button may be a kubuntu thing... hmm [07:59] i'm only using english [07:59] i did try grub-install but it seems no change... :( [07:59] It also has to pull from the internet to get restricted device drivers, since they aren't on the CD :-( [07:59] Leapo: its not allowed to have them on cd [07:59] KeithWeisshar: then it could be pulling updates. either way there's a network manager icon at the top of your screen. thatll let you disconnect from the internet [07:59] KeithWeisshar: that said, someone was complaining earlier that the alternative cd minimal install kept trying to access the internet archives even though he told it not too, so there's a possible bug in that aree... [07:59] iceroot: Not the official CD, anyway... [07:59] I've integrated them before. not hard. [08:00] KeithWeisshar: oh...there is one other case where it can pull.... thats if a bug is found in the installer, the installer can download a new version of itself. but again, disconnecting the internet will prevent that === zz_PhilMather is now known as PhilMather [08:00] Usually a wifi driver so a laptop isn't dead-in-the-water upon install [08:00] Leapo: they dont get pulled during install though [08:00] is it safe to use the skip button? [08:01] Leapo: you have to manually tell it to pull those, and to install it on the installed system you have to do it there (doing it on the livecd wont make it happen on the installed system) [08:01] maco: No, but if you throw them on the CD, you don't need the internet to get your wifi card working (which is the entire point) [08:01] I can't tell you how hugely annoying it is to install ubuntu and have absolutely no networking. -_- [08:01] KeithWeisshar: not in kubuntu. i dont know about ubuntu. but kubuntu's making the installer window disappear (but still finish the install i believe) is a known bug [08:02] Leapo: id guess about as annoying as installing windows xp :P [08:02] i'm using regular ubuntu [08:02] KeithWeisshar: check the release notes. if there's no mention of it, youre fine [08:02] KeithWeisshar: or "should be" fine [08:02] maco: Yeah, Thankfully Microsoft threw in a metric butt-load of wifi and ethernet card drivers on the Vista and Windows 7 DVD so they're assured to get an internet connection (they can then download the rest of the drivers they need from MS) [08:02] Leapo: it's particularly galling when the drivers are downloadable... [08:02] !broadcom [08:02] Help with Broadcom bcm43xx can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx [08:03] maco: except with ubuntu, the hardline nic is always garunteed too work, with windows xp, you need a driver for you FLASH DRIVE [08:03] hi guys, i have a problem with gwibber, it doesn't show up in the notification area and there doesn't seem to be a way of removing it from messaging-menu .. any idea ? [08:03] my pcmcia card make Lucid crashed [08:03] Loshki: Yeah, watching Ubuntu attempt to download ethernet card drivers when it has no drivers for any network device is a bit sad -_- [08:03] hiya can any1 assist me in livecd burning? [08:03] hi, please tell me how to force remove using apt-get remove [08:03] did they fix the ath9k driver in the new kernel with lucid? [08:04] o/ [08:04] Leapo: yeah, take that, Skynet... [08:04] eh? [08:05] Leapo: sorry, it's just that artificial intelligence has some way to go before it achieves world domination... [08:05] where is the kubuntu release notes [08:05] er...yeah... [08:05] Anyway, I've got Ubuntu 10.04 installed to a flash drive, and it's slow as dirt. It took 10 minutes to boot [08:05] Hm. [08:05] April 30th already came in here. So, Interpid is EOL? [08:05] is there anything I can do to reduce that? I notice it spends a lot of time detecting devices that aren't there [08:06] Hey, if I add something to my sources list in order to install an app, how can I lock it down so that they can't put a malicious libc6 library in their repository tricking apt into 'upgrading' to it? [08:06] Leapo: It boots in 5 seconds here, something's wrong there [08:06] theadmin: USB 1.1 on the laptop [08:06] That's what's wrong :-P [08:06] Leapo: oh... [08:06] hiya can any1 assist me in livecd burning? [08:06] It actually boots slower than the live CD [08:06] empathy will not let me select "availible" or any settings for availibilty from the notafication panel.. how do i set it up to log on at boot like it's SUPPOSED to, and does in a vm? [08:06] zipper: what do you need? [08:07] Like...a live CD with a persistant file on a flash drive might actually be faster than running from the flash drive [08:07] have a problem with gwibber [08:07] what's the issue? [08:07] hi loshki i am trying to burn gparted into a cd but unable to do it [08:07] hello [08:07] hi guys, is gwibber for ubuntu lucid lynx designed to not show up in notification area and only showup in me menu?? [08:07] Hey, if I add something to my sources list in order to install an app, how can I lock it down so that they can't put a malicious libc6 library in their repository tricking apt into 'upgrading' to it? [08:07] Leapo: are you using a usb 1.1 drve/jack or 2.0? also, is AHCI setup in your BIOS? [08:07] ubuntu release party [08:07] <__dantheman> y do you need gparted [08:07] zipper, 'burn gparted into a cd'. could u plz be more specific? [08:07] theadmin: Yup at least according to som post on the planet [08:07] zipper: just gparted? One application? [08:07] joel__: yes [08:07] Loshki: yes [08:08] <__dantheman> fdisk wont work? [08:08] gartral: The laptop's ports are USB 1.1 only. No way around that. AHCI won't do jack for USB flash drives. [08:08] zipper: may I ask why? [08:08] i have a mdadm raid. it appears 2 drives have failed, but i don't trust it... i think something else is happenning. when i do mdadm --examine /dev/sda1 it says 2 drives failed (sdc1 and sdd1). when i do mdadm --examine /dev/sdc1 it says all drives are fine... any ideas? [08:08] Loshki: i installed gparted into terminal but unable to umount it [08:08] Leapo: then stop complaining about ubuntu being slow as dirt when it's your laptop that's slow.. not ubuntu [08:08] Loshki: There is a LiveCD version of Gparted, FYI [08:08] Does Ubuntu do prefetching like Windows SUperfetch, or will I need to download a service to get that? It should speed things up greatly... [08:08] IdleOne, ah ok.. but apparently empathy doesn't do that i guess.. it can shows up in notification area as well. is that a bit inconsistent? .. and i thought the specs said that gwibber can actually disable memenu integration [08:08] Leapo: I forget the relative speeds of usb and flash, but of the two, I would expect flash to be far slower and the limiting factor... [08:08] <__dantheman> zipper: have you tried umount -f [08:08] gartral: I'm asking if there's a way to FIX it. Yeesh! [08:08] Loshki: unable to umount the partition [08:09] __dantheman: no idea how [08:09] <__dantheman> umount -f /dev/id === JimmyJ is now known as JimmyJ|zz [08:09] gartral: Anything I could possibly do to help it out. [08:09] joel__: they are working consistency for 10.10. memenu is new [08:09] sudo umount -f /dev/id? [08:09] <__dantheman> that should force an unmount [08:09] Loshki: Flash is far faster than USB 1.1 hehe [08:09] __dantheman: I think it ain't umounting because he's trying to do something to his root device. [08:09] <__dantheman> hmmm [08:09] joel__: basically not all the aps have caught up [08:10] WOW, 10.04 takes 4secs from GRUB to desktop on my new SSD. [08:10] __dantheman: i m trying to make all my harddisk space to linux but keep getting denied [08:10] IdleOne, ah ok.. :) i love the memenu thing, but it has some quirks like for example I can't change my empathy status message from Memenu [08:10] IdleOne, can you ? [08:10] joel__: don't use it :/ [08:10] <__dantheman> y cant you just boot into a livecd and use fdisk [08:10] IdleOne, ah ok.. don't like it? [08:10] Leapo: bummer, then you can't fix it by getting a faster flash device. Never reboot? [08:10] Noble: Around same here :D [08:10] joel__: I prefer my chatting on irc [08:10] Leapo: ohh, sorry, i misinterpreted the statments. i think you can use a linux=toram at boot and make the iso copy to ram then run.. but i wpuldnt do this if you have under a gig and a half.. as far as post-install/setup caching goes, not sure [08:10] IdleOne, haha, cool [08:11] __dantheman: i dunno how i am pretty new to all this [08:11] theadmin: What disk? [08:11] gartral: I don't remember how much RAM this laptop has. it's either 1GB of 512mb... [08:11] Leapo: 1.5gig ram that is [08:11] Yeah, no way it has that much [08:11] Noble: Hm. A ten-year-old one :P It came with this laptop. And a 512 MB ram. [08:11] gartral: it will run faster, but I'm not sure the initial boot will go much faster... [08:11] theadmin: And it takes 4 seconds from GRUB to usable desktop? [08:11] __dantheman: are u able to help me in pm cause i am kinda lost [08:11] gartral: That's why i was thinking about some kind of prefetch service that would load data into RAM to speed things up. [08:12] Noble: Around 6, actually, but near [08:12] Loshki: depending on the loadout, it could make boot take as little as 3 minutes, or it may make it take 5 times as long [08:12] <__dantheman> zipper: I really don't know what you're trying to do [08:12] theadmin: :D [08:12] Noble: Well, if I don't hit the enter key on GRUB menu, then 16 :D [08:12] Loshki: That would be an option of Ubuntu properly supported ACPI. It can't sleep on this laptop -_- [08:12] Leapo: i think your biggest issue now would be get more ram [08:12] anyone else have broken samba shares since upgrading to lucid? [08:12] gartral: Or a USB 2.0 PCMCIA card? :-P [08:13] Does anyone know what the did regarding the X-server bug before release? [08:13] gartral: Leapo: worth trying the toram thing then. Or use a smaller distro (DSL?) [08:13] Noble: Fixed it. [08:13] I'm curious whether one could downgrade the X server on 10.04 to 1.6.x or will it break lots of other programs [08:13] Noble: revert the changes to a known good state [08:13] Another issue: Ubuntu seems to think the video card in this laptop is cappable of compiz, and enables it by default... It's an ATi card that's R100 based, and only supports DirectX7 / OpenGL 1.3 [08:13] Ubuntu needs a blacklist for cards like that, it's far too slow to run compiz [08:14] Leapo: killall compiz OR metacity --replace [08:14] chid: !DANGER do not do! you will render your installation unbootable [08:14] KeithWeisshar: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/1004 for all of them [08:14] erUSUL: Errr.. what= [08:14] gardar, why? [08:14] Leapo: disable it; what's the problem [08:14] it technically /works/ but it's unusably slow. [08:14] chid: I'd be worried about the dependencies. Anything graphic will have been linked to some form of X library won't it? [08:14] sigh. mine wont even install. somehow it can't mount my swap partition. and the installer jsut wont go any furhter. [08:14] erUSUL: That Ubuntu shouldn't have enabled it by default on such a slow card? [08:14] Leapo: (second one is to be ran from Alt+F2 menu, first one is better not to run at all) [08:14] Loshki, ah, I see, thanks [08:14] theadmin: I managed to already (very slowly) disable it through the GUI. [08:15] I just upgraded to 10.04 When my computer turned on I got this message "An error occurred while mounting /proc/bus/usb" and when I load Gnome, both my task bars are gone. [08:15] chid: upstart, amonst other things, reqiure the latest X builds too run.. upstart handles bringing you machine online [08:15] Not a great out-of-the-box experience there. Couldn't even move windows around properly with desktop effects turned on [08:15] couldn't I just downgrade upstart too ;p [08:16] oldmanturk: not being able to mount swap is a big deal. It's not like a broken tail light. Any idea why it fails? [08:16] gartral: ?! O-O How can UPSTART require X? It's a init replacement [08:16] Loshki: sudo swapon -a && dmesg | tail [08:16] anyway, gardar, I shall look into it a bit more, thanks for that [08:16] Loshki: paste the errors you get [08:16] theadmin: i dont know how.. but i tryed it too run a telescope driver. and it caused me to have to reformat a 12 drive raid [08:16] Loshki: I did it! I just had to remove the existing module from the kernel and load my ndiswrapper module; until lsmod, I did not kow that ubuntu comes pre-installed with the module (which doesn't work), so everything is just excellent! [08:16] is there any way to use UVD2 with Ubuntu Lucid? [08:17] gartral: And it's present in server edition of Ubuntu, which has NO X at all. [08:17] how can i save link address from one web page in text file with terminal command ? [08:17] without having to suffer too much? [08:17] i'm literally freaking out...how can I create a taskbar when there is no task bar? [08:17] weber: Try Alt+F2, then "gnome-panel", brings anything? [08:17] !resetpanels | weber [08:17] weber: To reset the gnome panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » [08:17] theadmin: maybe the older X requires HAL.. all i know is fiddling with X in ubuntu is dangerous [08:17] erUSUL: tell oldmanturk, it was his problem (I replied to it) [08:18] Heard that there is a new Ubuntu out? [08:18] alt+f2 does nothing [08:18] gartral: Well, yeah, that's why i never do it [08:18] livingdaylight: 10.04 is currently the latest. [08:18] is it a better Ubuntu or just the same one with new wallpaper? [08:18] just gonna try install without swap then dick around with it === cwe-ok is now known as coffe_late [08:18] Define better ? [08:18] livingdaylight: A lot faster, at the very least. Not much noticable changes graphic-wise though [08:18] oldmanturk: « sudo swapon -a && dmesg | tail » in a terminal. paste the errors you get [08:18] livingdaylight: ive been running it since beta 1, and it exhibits its own issues, but clears up alot of older ones [08:19] Finally found the best flavor of Ubuntu: Ubuntu Satanic. ;-) [08:19] gartral, yes, replacing one problem with another, I've noticed this before [08:19] sunk8: Hehe :D [08:19] hey do ya know what program let use reddesign the way the bootloader looked [08:19] jbrouhard, define "Define" [08:19] livingdaylight: at least NOW its a bunch of little graphical bugs replacing system critical ones ;) [08:19] Is it safe to use the Upgrade button in Update Manager, or will the upgrade fail due to all the traffic? [08:20] theadmin. I'm not kidding. You can check for yourself at http://ubuntusatanic.org [08:20] sunk8: Yep, I know that, used it some day even [08:20] erUSUL, I get "gnome-panel: no process found" [08:20] theadmin. It's really kewl. [08:20] weber: and panels did not appear ? [08:20] theadmin: do we support it? [08:20] gartral, maybe I'll wait... my update manager hasn't suggested upgrading yet [08:21] nothing... [08:21] in ubuntu 9.10 is the home directory automatically encrypted? [08:21] Loshki: me does not think so [08:21] livingdaylight: if your THAT worried, i'de grab the latest iso and roll a vm with it before upping [08:21] after I upgraded to 10.04 I got this msg before gnome "loaded"; An error occurred while mounting /proc/bus/usb, erUSUL [08:21] Loshki: However, only thing they changed are themes and bootsplash :/ [08:22] gartral, just wondered whether its worth it. [08:22] can't sudo apt-get install, what's happening [08:22] I have to create a desktop folder to get to my files...but the internet doesn't even work [08:22] theadmin: :-) [08:22] Goodmorning everybody [08:22] gartral, 9.10 is still running fine. They knock out these new releases every 6 months but improvements are often not noticeable, and each release has its own issues. Is sound sorted now? [08:23] weber: I got my machine to quite the same state by trying to install GNOME Shell instead of GNOME Panel [08:23] livingdaylight: if i were put it into an anology of another linux.. it's alot like the jump from FC 9>10 [08:23] hey all just installed ubuntu 10.04 on my netbook [08:23] but i get no wifi [08:23] weber: I only managed to solve by a clean install. [08:23] how can i tell if i need a certain driver? [08:23] will deleting broken packages in /var/cache/apt/archives solve dpkg errors ? [08:23] livingdaylight: if you're worried about stability, simply wait a month or so for 10.04 to stabilize [08:23] is there a fix for the performance issues with the UNR and Intel 915? [08:23] https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/linux/+bug/349314 [08:23] plutonium45: Maybe, try "sudo apt-get -f install" first though [08:23] gartral, never used fedora much... but I get you [08:24] Ferrixman; morning, afternoon here. [08:24] theadmin, all I did was click upgrade in update manager [08:24] janmalte: talking about jaunty? [08:24] I have some problems in the fresh install process of ubuntu 10.04: I have a fake raid which I disactivated from bios, two 500Gb hard drives where I already have 9.10 installed, together with Vista on different partition [08:24] Loshki, there's wisdom in that [08:24] weber: o-O [08:24] theadmin : I first tried it..its not working :( [08:24] can't sudo apt-get install, what's happening, won't download files, 8.04. [08:24] No, lucid [08:24] gorski: What do you get? [08:24] plutonium45: well, it depends on the error... [08:24] downloading 0% [08:24] janmalte: hm dont using lucid so i cant help, only know that there was a problem in jaunty which was fixed in karmic [08:24] gorski: Sounds like your mirror is down. [08:24] hi [08:25] aha, ok [08:25] LordDragon, connect to the internet (maybe using a ethernet cable) and update your machine. IT will tell you recommended hardware drivers [08:25] during the 10.04 setup, if I start it with noraid option, it will not see my two hard drives; if I start it normally, it will pretend the two hard drives to be on a raid 0 [08:25] gorski: Try going to system -> admininstration -> Software sources and choosing the russian one (it's up for sure, using it :D) [08:25] yes, i found two patched kernels but only for jaunty [08:25] on my ubuntu machine on openvpn ifconfig-pool-persist is not working. on my other (non-ubuntu) machines it works. may it be a but in ubuntu? [08:25] tnx [08:25] a bug [08:25] so i wondered that it came back on lucid [08:25] im STILL seeing issues with multiple NICs on one lan! [08:25] here's the error log http://paste.ubuntu.com/425063/ [08:26] SandGorgon, you mean run the "update manager" ? [08:26] Hi, I'm using ubuntu 9.10, but I also have the metapackage kubuntu-desktop installed and updated. Which alternate install cd should I download to update to 10.04? [08:26] Prabz: Any of em [08:26] LordDragon: or run sudo apt-get update [08:26] LordDragon, yup... [08:26] Aug, i got the ethernet card in this laptop installed, but the driver can't seem to connect to WPA networks... [08:26] * Leapo facepalms [08:26] it says my system is up to date [08:26] Prabz: You will have to download KDE updates manually, though, if you use the GNOME one, and vice versa [08:26] theadmin, I mean kubuntu alternate install cd or ubuntu one? [08:27] it didnt install any drivers [08:27] LordDragon, open "Hardware Drivers" and see if it says anything [08:27] or say anything abbout them [08:27] Hello, === Quasim0d0 is now known as blogggger [08:27] "hardware drivers" says "no properitary rivers are in use on this system" [08:27] hello all [08:27] does anybody know how to solve this issue? [08:27] whats the option for force install in apt-get .. is it apt-get -f ? [08:27] theadmin, I began updating via the kde update manager, it showed a total download size of 2 GB [08:27] plutonium45: That is "fix" === billing is now known as polos [08:28] Prabz: Should be about so if you have two desktops [08:28] plutonium45: i think --force-yes [08:28] maybe i need some sort of proprietary driver source [08:28] plutonium45: but it aint recommened , why do you wana do it? [08:28] empathy will not let me select "availible" or any settings for availibilty from the notafication panel.. how do i set it up to log on at boot like it's SUPPOSED to, and does in a vm? [08:29] I wanna do it because of this error http://paste.ubuntu.com/425063/ [08:29] is anyone familiar with email macro software ( the type a corporate clerk would use for responding to mass emails)? [08:29] plutonium45: let me check [08:29] theadmin, So can I individually install from both alternate install cds or do i have to do the release upgrade [08:29] delpassion: sendmail, maybe (a terminal-based mail client), just a hint, never used it [08:29] hello [08:29] theadmin: Would there be any point to compiling the kernel for the hardware for a speedup? This laptop's got an old AMD Athlon XP (k7 based) in it [08:29] Prabz: You can install one alternate CD and then update the other desktop from the update managers. [08:30] Please, is anybody able to solve my issue? [08:30] Leapo: No idea. [08:30] When I use the Ubuntu way to install nvidia (that is via the System menu and not via Synaptic) drivers I get: SystemError: E:Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages. [08:30] plutonium45: --force=yes makes install continue without prompting. I don't think it will actually force the install though [08:30] This is in 9.10. [08:30] No idea if it'll help out reasonably slow, year-2000-era hardware? [08:30] man where did he go [08:30] geekphreak: he? [08:30] I have some problems in the fresh install process of ubuntu 10.04: I have a fake raid which I disactivated from bios, two 500Gb hard drives where I already have 9.10 installed, together with Vista on different partition. during the 10.04 setup, if I start it with noraid option, it will not see my two hard drives; if I start it normally, it will pretend the two hard drives to be on a raid 0 [08:31] plutonium45: ok listen mate [08:31] When I go so synaptic and say repair broken packages, afterwards the problem still exists. [08:31] I will try --force=yes [08:31] So, I hereby derive that Ubuntu is broken. [08:31] plutonium45: --force-yes , there is no "equal" sign [08:31] plutonium45: delete this package /var/cache/apt/archive/ttf-sil-gentium_20081126%3a1.02-10_all.deb === abhijain is now known as yoshu [08:31] I already deleted it [08:31] I can not watch a video from Firefox the flash is not working on videos. Also opera has some problems with flash videos but it works with opera. I use ubuntu 64 bit. can someone help me with it ? [08:31] ok i think im getting the driver now [08:31] and tried apt-get update && apt-get upgrade [08:31] same errors [08:32] ok can you comeplete remove it from synaptic? [08:32] theadmin, okay, I started the release upgrade, it's gonna take 36 hours on my internet connection.. I'll get the upgrade via alternate installer cd.. how can I revert? It has already modified the software sources list... === darkhazard is now known as aperson [08:32] are there any setings i can change to optimize ubuntu for my i7 [08:32] Prabz: dialup ? [08:32] ? [08:32] Attempting to mkdir in ~/Dropbox crashes the terminal, wth? [08:32] has anyone had issues getting sound from flash in ubuntu 10.04 ? I installed flash from apt. [08:32] gartral: thats a good system mate [08:32] geekphreak: plutonium45: deleting the deb file gets rid of the *new* version, not the old, installed version, which is where the error came from... [08:33] geekphreak, not dialup, but a basic 512 kbps adsl, the isp recently halved the bandwidth [08:33] And as always, I love it when someone else already had the same problem 2 years ago and the problem still hasn't been fixed. [08:33] Loshki: right [08:33] geekphreak: i7 860 @3.1 ghz, 4 gigs ram at 1600 mhz, CAS 7, and a EVGA mobo [08:33] hi folks .. i have problem with keyboard on 10.04 ... i have older notebook umax 835 for tests .. i installed 10.04 (final) .. DELETE key is not working ... BACKSPACE key works as ENTER :( ... any idea? thanks [08:33] so should I remove the old packages also ? but I installed using apt-get ..I installed a version on its own [08:33] geekphreak, it's a 2gb upgrade i'm talking of.. [08:33] where do i get the netboot installers of lucid lynx? [08:34] gartral: thats a good system , i wont worry about it, if you dont like it send it here man [08:34] Prabz: the installer really should ask if you want to quit once it's told you how long it might take, no? [08:34] Prabz: you prob. have everything installed kde / xfce/gnome and all [08:34] hello just completed download ubuntu 10.4 wubi and it is in .rar format . so now in cd burning option need to extract first or not . [08:34] how can i install this on my ubuntu 8.04.4: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/karmic-changes/2009-June/002563.html [08:34] geekphreak: my complaint is ubuntu spuradically uses threads [08:34] the evrsion i get with apt is always older [08:35] hello, i need help, i got problems with lvm [08:35] There is a translation problem with Firefox and Thunderbird in GNOME menus. Yet it seems that I can't use Launchpad to translate those strings. They must be somewhere in Debian. Any idea how to get there? [08:35] yoshu: it aint rar, it is iso, you see it as rar, cause you got winrar on that system which open iso [08:35] I made some progress on my fakeraid problem. gparted and the like assume /dev/mapper/crazy_stuff_bah has ...bahp1 instead of ...bah1. That's breaking stuff. [08:35] anyone know what would cause freezing while trying to install? i get it after i choose english [08:35] Loshki, It shows the amount of download to be done *after* modifying the software sources [08:35] geekphreak, kde + gnome [08:35] yoshu: Isn't that wrong, nothing ubuntu uses rar as far as I know [08:35] root@ubuntu:/# lvm /proc/mounts: _get_sysfs_dir: fopen %s failed: No such file or directory /proc/devices: fopen failed: No such file or directory Failed to create lvm type filter Internal error: _vginfos list should be empty You have a memory leak (not released memory pool): [0x24547f0] You have a memory leak (not released memory pool): [0x24547f0] [08:35] has anyone else had their task bar disappear after upgrading to 10.04 from 9.10 [08:35] geekphreak: so without extracting i can burn it in cd [08:36] Prabz: we should file a bug. Won't help you, but posterity will thank you... [08:36] geekphreak: $1950 says i'll build you a clone, ;) [08:36] yoshu: just double check the extenson, it should be iso man :) [08:36] should I even bother with a clean install of 10.04? [08:36] gartral: haha thanks mate, thats kind of you :p [08:36] weber: Try... Won't harm you more. [08:36] theadmin, Loshki, any idea how to revert the software sources list? [08:37] Prabz: Revert? [08:37] http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/f7cnPdZR [08:37] geekphreak: yeah it is in ubuntu-10.4-desktop-i386.iso [08:37] theadmin, okay, I started the release upgrade, it's gonna take 36 hours on my internet connection.. I'll get the upgrade via alternate installer cd.. It has already modified the software sources list...how can I revert? [08:37] weber: "task bar" ? [08:37] yoshu: which system you currently on ? [08:37] theadmin, I'm copying all my files to an external now...I hate clean installs, especially after I had 9.10 working just excellently, but nooo I just had to have 10.04 [08:37] Prabz: well, you were supposed to have made a backup before you started.... [08:38] How can I install the nvidia drivers on this system which you call Ubuntu? You manage to turn a working thing (the nvidia binary installer) into a broken piece of hell. [08:38] Prabz: You won't be able to. [08:38] geekphreak: on windows vista 32 bit [08:38] arand, menu bar...main menu...what have you [08:38] is it safe to upgrade to 10.04 from 9.04? [08:38] no. [08:38] scottwol1hok: You can't do that. [08:38] i'll ask again ... i am trying to install kubuntu, i know this isn't the kubuntu chat but no one seems to know in there... during the installation it comes up to the first screen that allows the mouse pointer to be moved and then i choose english and hit forward, after it freezes completely [08:38] yoshu: right click the file, you shold see burn image option [08:38] weber: both top and bottom panet, or certain items only? [08:38] theadmin, that means i need to continue the download... what if the download gets interrupted? [08:39] Hi, I have issues with glx on readon, on ubuntu lucid, is this the place to get help? [08:39] arand, ah, panel, yes...both panels are gone. [08:39] theadmin: how do I get update-notifer-kde to give me 9.10 instead of 10.04 then? [08:39] scottwol1hok: if you're worried, just wait a month or so for the last bugs to be worked out, and then upgrade [08:39] MrKlown: when you boot from cd, there is option , check cd for defect , did you run that ? [08:39] Prabz: As long as it is only downloading, I think that it would be possible to cancel [08:39] i did geek there are no problems with it [08:39] I use Opera 10.1 . But operas latest version is 10.5. I did all updates on my system but is not changed :( I try to check updates from opera but it writes : You are using the latest version of Opera. how to update it ? [08:39] arand, but the software sources can't be reverted? [08:39] Prabz: Uh, if it will stop, it should rever them back automatically. Or, you could of "cat /etc/apt/sources.list | sed s/lucid/karmic/ >/etc/apt/sources.list" [08:39] MrKlown: how much ram and all you got? [08:39] Hi, I ran an update few minutes back and it asked me to restart. After the restart in the boot menu I select generic kernel 2.6.31-21-genric to boot. I got an error msg "1.185157 Kernal Panic - not syncing VFS: unable to mount root fs on unknown block (8,17)" However I rebooted again with older version generic kernal 2.6.31-20 it works fine. How to fix this problem ? [08:40] weber: try "gnome-panel --replace &disown" [08:40] mupaon, apt-get update if you have their server in your sources.list. [08:40] hello [08:40] Prabz: That should be possble. [08:40] arand if I could open a terminal that would be awesome. [08:40] mupaon, it might be that their server is not up to date, which you can manually verify. [08:40] well i am trying to install it on an older computer amd 1.8ghz single core processor, 1.5 gigs of ram [08:40] Prabz: As long as it hasn't started the install itself [08:40] good morning, i startet a second x-server on tty9 with anotherresolution to play a game in a vbox in its "natural" resulution, so far so, good, works fine, but: in the middle of the screen i see that big "x" and the vbox is running under it, i can use mouse and everthing in vbox, the "x" just sits there, anyway to turn it off / hide it? [08:41] weber: alt+f2 >> "gnome-terminal" [08:41] MrKlown: still thats a descent system , ummm , should work fine, [08:41] Prabz: I agree with arand. It it hasn't started installing, it should be safe to interrupt. If you didn't have a very customised sources.list, any sources.list for that release will probably do... [08:41] arand, hold on I'll run songbird in a terminal to see if terminal comes up, alt+f2 does nothing [08:41] geekphreak: is there need to uninstall winrar ?? [08:41] i know that's why i am aggravated [08:41] i've burnt 2 cds so far and it freezes [08:41] yoshu: naaw i wont worry about it mate [08:41] * LordDragon sighs [08:41] well i installed the broadcom driver for my wifi [08:41] syas everything is working [08:41] but it wont connect to my local wifi network [08:41] fasta: but i try also from opera to update with "check for updates" it doen not works. it is about their server ? [08:41] oh, I'm a little dense. I *am* on 9.10 === theloser_ is now known as theloser [08:42] it just scans and scans and then asks me over and over the for password [08:42] seems a lot of people have been having trouble installing it after choosing the keyboard type [08:42] MrKlown: it freezez everytime at same point ? [08:42] Prabz: I will paste a Karmic sources.list for ya [08:42] yes geek on both cds [08:42] geekphreak: pm [08:42] mupaon, there are these concept of stable/unstable. [08:42] geekphreak: thanx alot for asssting me it is my first time for ubuntu . thanx alot [08:42] Anyone to solve my boot problem ??? [08:42] MrKlown: did you get normal download or alternate , if there is one for kubuntu [08:42] Prabz: http://paste.ubuntu.com/425072/ [08:42] some people have suggested i try various modes while installing [08:42] normal [08:42] i need to know how can i upgrade from an ubuntu alternate cd, links is possible [08:42] arand..."error while loading shared libraries: libgnome-desktop-2.so.11: cannot open shared object file: no such file or directory" [08:42] mupaon, so, maybe the latest bleeding version is 10.5 and you don't run the latest bleeding version or their software is broken. [08:42] fasta: hmm. ok. thank you! [08:43] MrKlown: well yes that was my next suggestion [08:43] mupaon, anyway, Opera support is sort of off-topic here, because we cannot know what is wrong with a binary blob. [08:43] theadmin: 3 lines, is that it? [08:43] i have a mdadm raid. it appears 2 drives have failed, but i don't trust it... i think something else is happenning. when i do mdadm --examine /dev/sda1 it says 2 drives failed (sdc1 and sdd1). when i do mdadm --examine /dev/sdc1 it says all drives are fine... any ideas? [08:43] i'll go try those real quick [08:43] weber: Seems like there is a deeper problem here.. [08:43] be bak in a bit (hopefully on linux) lol [08:43] any upgrade to lucid? it doesn't work for, says check your internet connection. I was using update manager [08:43] Ah, another broken Ubuntu release? [08:44] Color me not surprised. [08:44] How can I change the shell? [08:44] Loshki: Well, earlier it used to split universe... multiverse and such with separate lines. [08:44] weber: Of which I have no idea to solve, I'm afraid. [08:44] fasta: works ok here :p [08:44] Loshki: But that's what i have :P [08:44] geekphreak, well, I am not going to upgrade considering that Ubuntu always does the wrong thing. [08:44] tp nets working right? [08:44] geekphreak, and the low-quality of the releases. [08:44] Aug, Ubunut just hard-locked adding a panel to the desktop :-/ [08:45] Features, features, features, but no bug fixes. [08:45] fasta: In a support channel, it's quite likely people have problems ;) === thirty is now known as Guest20298 [08:45] now that I think of it, I've never been able to upgrade from the last release...I've always had to do a clean install, that is really lame. [08:45] fasta: your opinion, i am actually impressed by new releases but anyways [08:45] theadmin: it's...smaller...than I expected... [08:45] urgent! if you are upgrading to Lucid. Remember to ecryptfs-unwrap-passphrase before the upgrade and print it out on paper! [08:45] Loshki: Check yours ;D not much more official repos there will be === zipper_ is now known as zipper [08:45] Also, gnome panels has a pretty annoying bug. If you make a side-panel without a top panel present, the side panel doesn't extend all the way to the top of the screen [08:46] arand, the thing is: a support channel should say things about how to use the software, not about reporting f*ckups all day. [08:46] theadmin: my 10.04 source.list is about 50 lines long.... [08:46] Loshki: How much third-party stuff you have there? :/ [08:46] Aciid: thanks will keep that in mind [08:46] Loshki: I haven't pasted my third-party stuff, you see [08:46] I have install bridge-utils, hostapd, dhcp3-server and have specified in /etc/network/interfaces to bridge my LAN and wifi (eth0 & wlan0) but because the bridge takes 30~ seconds to bring up, when the machine boots up dhcp3-server fails to load, what can be causing the delay in the bridge interface coming up? or what can be done to delay the start of dhcp3-server [08:46] fasta: watch the language please [08:46] if i manually start dhcp3-server after br0 is up, it works [08:47] fasta: Fair point, yes. (btw, obscured swearing counts) [08:47] theadmin, hey man, you have any experience with mdadm? [08:47] PROBLEM ~~~ can anyone help with ubuntu 10.04 install on a dell hybrid studio ??~?~? [08:47] geekphreak: i just installed infrarecorder and burning image [08:47] azlon: No, no idea who that dad is. [08:47] yoshu: ok mate [08:47] Loshki, any experience with mdadm? [08:47] Gah, NOT AGAIN. ubuntu just ate its own file system. It hard locked, so I powered off and attempted to bring it back up, and now the file system is gone [08:47] theadmin: between security, archive, medibuntu, getdeb, some ppas, it kinda adds up... [08:48] I did all updates last night. But now try to check it again. But when it checks after a time it give error : http://textsnip.com/0914a6 . What this means ? [08:48] azlon: I have been fussing with mdadm tonight but to no avail. [08:48] azlon: none whatsoever, sorry... [08:48] PROBLEM ~~~ can anyone help with ubuntu 10.04 install on a dell hybrid studio ??~?~? === katie is now known as anarres [08:48] A good example is that apparently dual-boot stopped working for a lot of people. If you only notice that on the last day of a release, something about the whole process is deeply wrong. [08:48] sam204475: exaplin your problem [08:48] Loshki: Bleh. That's exactly why I use sources.list.d extensively [08:48] Mathuin, dude... this thing is driving me nuts! it usually isnt a problem for me but today it is really testing me... what is your issue with it? [08:48] ikonia: hi [08:48] fasta: that was a bug - you shouldn't know the risks of using no-released software [08:48] i dont understand this [08:48] fasta: the bug was not in the released product [08:49] fasta: if you use development software you will get hit by bugts [08:49] this same driver worked fine in 9.10 ubuntu [08:49] bugs [08:49] Okay, I'm in a fix here. I upgraded my kernel but before removing the restricted modules package with synaptic, I deleted the lib/modules directory corresponding to the old kernel. I had forgot about this and then tried to apt-get remove the restricted driver package. Now it's broken or something and everytime I perform an apt-get operation like install, it first tries to remove the restricted drivers package and fails because obviously that doesn't exist. [08:49] Help me get out of this vicious cycle. [08:49] i was able to login to my wifi [08:49] LordDragon: 9.10 and 10.04 has a different kernel [08:49] but with 10.04 it just wont connect [08:49] ikonia, do you really think there are not similar examples in released versions? [08:49] fasta: nothing that critical no [08:49] Hii guys! I just tried the Live cd of lucid.. but the memenu just does not seem to be working there... For eg: i tried my twitter account.. it got added but nothing shown.. does not show anything.dont even know if i am connected to twitter.. tried using yahoo . and it says bad connection etc etc... howvere i can access all sites through firefox which means that internet connection is not a problem.. help me with this please... [08:49] need help :application for searching and remove duplicate file???? :D [08:49] Leapo: Um, I'm not sure that's a known failure mode for 10.04. If not, it makes your hardware suspect... [08:49] arand, Loshki , theadmin , thanks for your help. [08:49] azlon: I have "fake" RAID with my motherboard, so I'm trying to stripe two 500G drives. I used mdadm to create /dev/md0 on the software side, but I was unable to actually install the OS on /dev/md0. I am now using dmraid, and making a little more progress. [08:49] fasta: bottom line is, if you don't like the bug fix policy there are other distros for you to use with different release cycles and bug fix policies [08:49] Ikonia ~ I have ubuntu RC on my desktop and i want to fresh install, i made a few live CDs that i downloaded from ubuntu website and it just boots into grub. even tho the CD is ment to be the first boot. how can i do a fresh install? i wanna get rid of my winshite and reset the partitions. [08:50] Loshki: It happened in a virtual machine earlier [08:50] ikonia, ok, well, in the 9.10 upgrade from 9.04 the graphics drivers stopped working. [08:50] ikonia, so your saying that the new kernel broke the broadcom bcm4312 proprietary drivers? [08:50] vivek_: It kind of a, uuuuuh, you have that... line there? That's the twitter thing, you tweet with it [08:50] fasta, how can i tell if a drive in my mdadm raid really failed? --examine /dev/sda1 and --examine /dev/sdc1 give me 2 different results even though they are in the same array... [08:50] ikonia, that is a bug of similar epic stupidity. [08:50] Prabz: Glad to help, if it helped :) [08:50] Loshki: I've had it happen, in 9.10 as well [08:50] fasta: if don't agree with the release cycle and it's time contstrains don't use the distro [08:50] Leapo: wow, I've never seen that. An ext4 bug? [08:50] Where can I find the torrent list? [08:50] hi, is there anyone who has an epson perfection v300 (scanner)? [08:50] theadmin: sorry but am not getting you [08:50] Mathuin, oh... that sounds more complicated than mine... sorry... [08:50] It's a recurring theme on a lot of PC's I try Ubuntu on. Something causes it to hard lock, and when it comes back, no more file system [08:50] arand, is there a difference in upgrading and a fresh install? [08:50] vivek_: Just a second [08:51] azlon: 'sok, hopefully it'll work for you. :-) [08:51] Loshki: That'd be a rather serious bug. [08:51] sam204475: 1.) don't use language like that, it's called "windows" 2.) if your machine is failing to boot from CD, either the cd's are not valid, (check the burn process/checksums) or the drive is dead, or the boot order is wrong [08:51] geekphreak: i have installed infrarecoreder in vista and when i m righlciking on .iso image there is no option of burn image . [08:51] Mathuin, do you know how to check if a drive "really" failed? it says 2 of my drives failed but they are my newest drives... [08:51] Prabz: Quite so, since most of what you installed/configured will remain if you upgrade, on a clean install, obviously not. [08:52] boot order is fine. nothing wrong with it and the CDs work on other computers. [08:52] vivek_: Here's how it should look like: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2012912/Screenshot.png [08:52] sam204475: then there is something wrong with the drive [08:52] is there anyway i can reinstall linux from within linux? [08:52] no [08:52] * FardadJalili says hello [08:52] Leapo: I'd say so. I'll look in launchpad tomorrow. Don't suppose you can reproduce it at will? [08:52] Nvm, got it :) [08:52] i have installed infrarecoreder in vista and when i m righlciking on .iso image there is no option of burn image . [08:52] Also, is the Ubuntu shutdown screen supposed to look this putrid? I'm guessing no... http://www.kimag.es/share/76508405.jpg [08:52] I deleted the the network-manager-applet from the bar next to the clock. how can I add it again please (it does not show up in the applications, when I choose to add a program to this panel) [08:53] artinstartin: start it by Alt+F2 and "nm-applet" [08:53] yoshu, just open Infrarecorder and choose burn image [08:53] the admin: thank you. and then just drag it to the panel? [08:53] sam204475: You can install another ubuntu via a running ubuntu using a chroot I guess, although that's a whole science.. [08:53] Leapo, what's that ? PINK!! [08:53] Ok next problem. Why is Ubuntu not taking my USB flash drives anymore? anyone know? they show up but wont let me know whats on there. they worked for a long time and then they just stopped. [08:53] Loshki: It seems to happen at random. I'm just doing something mundane, and Ubuntu will lock up (again, has happened on physical hardware and in virtual machines on known-good systems). I'll have to power off the system with a hard reset, and when it comes back, it fails to boot [08:53] how can i upgrade from an ubuntu alternate cd, links is possible [08:53] Chroot~` yuk [08:53] arand: you can't actually [08:53] thats gonna be a nightmare. hehe [08:54] arand: not withthout significant changes to the process [08:54] sam204475: do you see them listed though in cfdisk? [08:54] artinstartin: No, it just shows up in the notification area :D [08:54] Prabz: It's the most eye-straining shade of pink I've ever seen X_x [08:54] yep [08:54] geekphreak: get the pm? [08:54] guys, before a clean install of lucid, which directories should I back up?! [08:54] AnxiousNut, just put it in your dvd drive while Ubuntu is running and choose upgrade :) [08:54] gartral: nope nothing mate [08:54] FardadJalili: /home [08:54] FardadJalili: Pretty much all. [08:54] hello ppl. pls help me to get my wpa2-psk wlan working in lyx [08:54] ikonia: Hence my "whole science" comment, but it might be even worse than I thought then.. [08:54] FardadJalili: what ever you need [08:54] FardadJalili: any data you need, back it up [08:55] silversk8r, isn't WPA2-PSK working? :-o [08:55] nope [08:55] I don't think I can trust any data to 10.04 after seeing it eat its own FS twice like that... [08:55] it tries to connect [08:55] Leapo: use ext3 [08:55] theadmin: In the screenshot , that place where it is showing status as available .. mine the status available is not shown.... moreover yahoo messenger is also not connecting [08:55] ikonia: 9.10 used ext3, and it did it to me as well [08:55] the admin: will try, have to reboot cheers and cu later(hopefully not*g) [08:55] ikonia: you think it's an ext4 glitch? [08:56] ikonia: I don't mean my data. I mean something like /var/cache/apt/archives/ or ... , should I back them up to? [08:56] theadmin: it is as if I am offline [08:56] vivek_: That status thing is by pidgin or empathy or stuff, Yahoo is kinda broken [08:56] can we install ubuntu with usb flash drive [08:56] Leapo: then I suggest you are doing something odd as to do it through two distros is odd [08:56] well that did not work :( [08:56] silversk8r, using a laptop? [08:56] yoshu, yes [08:56] yes [08:56] dell inspiron [08:56] FardadJalili: no, that would backup your old install packages, use clean if you're doing a clean install [08:56] silversk8r, try freeing the wifi switch from the bios [08:56] ikonia: Perfectly clean install. it often happens before I can even install a package. Happens in both VMWare an don multiple machines here. [08:56] MrKlown: i got few more ideas [08:56] ohh i hate computers. why do things have to fail so much??? :D hehe [08:56] MrKlown: got a pen drive? [08:56] nope [08:57] theadmin: so you mean to say that I might be actually connected to twitter.. i just need to go ahead and tweet..:-) [08:57] unggnu: den how iam new foor linux dont know more about ubunTU [08:57] Leapo: have you checked launcpad for an existing bug [08:57] sorry for repeating: I have some problems in the fresh install process of ubuntu 10.04: I have a fake raid which I disactivated from bios, two 500Gb hard drives where I already have 9.10 installed, together with Vista on different partition. during the 10.04 setup, if I start it with noraid option, it will not see my two hard drives; if I start it normally, it will pretend the two hard drives to be on a raid 0 [08:57] ikonia: Nothing seemingly relevant appears, I'm afraid [08:57] MrKlown: this might sound stupid but try using a cd lean cleaner on cdrom to be sure its clean [08:57] Leapo: log a bug then [08:57] silversk8r, it does to me too, sometimes ubuntu reverses the polarity of the wifi switch , even i have a dell inspiron [08:57] Don't you find it funny how it tries to auto-add sources to your sources.list.d when you click any file called "sources.list" :D [08:57] #unbuntu-release-party [08:57] Error on checking updates : http://textsnip.com/0914a6 can someone help me ? [08:57] hai all , i need help [08:57] ikonia: hopefully this one wont be ignored -_- [08:57] thanks, I'll check the bios [08:57] hello [08:57] adahendra: Ask [08:57] Leapo: [08:58] ikonia: hmm, so I have to download all of packages again. in other word I only have to back up my "own" data! ok thanks a lot ;) [08:58] FardadJalili: if you want to do a clean install, that is the best approach [08:58] theadmin:thanks will try it again with the live cd.. thanks a lot... [08:58] Leapo: if they can't reproduce it, they may have no choice... [08:58] theadmin: what the application for searching dan remove duplicates file?? [08:58] yoshu, Ubuntu has a tool for it but if you only have Windows you need another tool [08:58] can't i get ubuntu's new version's artwork (i mean boot screen, login screen etc.) without reinstalling it? with update or sth? [08:58] silversk8r, configure wifi to always on, and the switch to not have any control over wifi [08:58] Loshki: Kinda hard to reproduce when it happens seemingly at random, and erases the FS in the process (there go the log files...) [08:58] adahendra: Hmm... I heard of a couple, search in USC. [08:59] has ANYONE gotten hdmi audio passthrough working? [08:59] Prabz, will the on/off button still work after that? [08:59] adahendra, I use Fslint. It works quite well for that purpose [08:59] yoshu, http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/forum/243423-14-image-flash - this might help [08:59] silversk8r, nope, but you can use ubuntu's application called flight mode to switch off wifi [08:59] can you please help me ? [08:59] ok thank yo Ferrixman and theadmin [08:59] Leapo: agreed... [08:59] well, it's worth a try [08:59] hsa2: ask mate [08:59] i'll try a few more things [08:59] brb [08:59] can't i get ubuntu's new version's artwork (i mean boot screen, login screen etc.) without reinstalling it? with update or sth? [09:00] Loshki: Also rather annoying having to reinstall the darn thing repeatedly to test [09:00] The signpost fell over [09:00] MinusSeven: lolwut [09:00] Leapo: I'd give up on it. I wouldn't let an OS do that to me twice... [09:00] someone down the street knocked over a signpost [09:00] MinusSeven: I'd say it's offtopic [09:00] :D [09:00] ok [09:01] I'm hopeless at judging this [09:01] Loshki: Fedora it is, then... [09:01] ok when i installed ubuntu it said it found two properitary drivers. one was broadcom sta wireless driver. and the other was b43 or something like that. i didnt activate the b43 cuz i didnt think i needed it for wifi. but perhaps i actually do. but now i cant get ubuntu to redetect the properiaty driver. how can i rescan ? [09:01] geekphreak, any idea? [09:01] Leapo: no shortage of distros... [09:01] New version of Fedora out soon I think [09:01] ubuntu-10.04-desktop-amd64.iso What mean amd64? is this only for AMD 64bit porcessors ? [09:01] but if I can offer my 2 cents worth [09:01] LordDragon: >> system >> administration >> hardware drivers ? [09:01] theuros1: no also for intel 64bit [09:01] MinusSeven: also offtopic... [09:01] theuros1, it's 64bit systems [09:02] theuros1: ANY 64-bit ones. AMD just started them, that's why. [09:02] ok thanx [09:02] I always way two weeks after Ubuntu is released before I install it [09:02] Loshki: Well, Fedora is redhat based, and I want stability already! [09:02] wait [09:02] not way [09:02] LANG=C apt-get update && apt-get install gcc => The following packages have unmet dependencies: [09:02] hsa2: afaik mate, dont think you can [09:02] gcc: Depends: gcc-4.4 (>= 4.4.1-1) but it is not going to be installed [09:02] E: Broken packages [09:02] geekphreak, yeah i keep going there. it only finds the broadcom sta driver now. it no longer detects the b43. i dont know why [09:02] Can someone possibly explain why not even a compiler can be installed/ [09:02] Leapo: for maximum stability, I think you want centos... [09:02] ? [09:02] hey guys after installing nvidia driver, my console resolution is very low, i tried changing it in grub but that only changed the resolution for hte grub menu not console in general, any suggestions? [09:02] theuros1: there is also ia64, that is a special intel-architecture, i guess you will never see, so amd64 is always the version you want for your intel or amd-cpu [09:02] Loshki: That's also redhat based :-P [09:02] LordDragon, you could find the b43 manually, on broadcomm's site [09:02] ok thanx [09:03] strange: how did you instrall the nvidia drivers ? [09:03] theuros1: AMD64 is the same thing as x86_64. It's the proper distro to get for both AMD and intel 64bit processors. [09:03] Leapo: yes, but it lags fedora, which is bleeding edge, and hence not nearly as stable... [09:03] Prabz, i wouldnt have a clue as to how to find something that specific and make it work on ubuntu [09:03] strange: AFAIK, console resolution is defined in the kernel and nvidia has nothing to do with it. [09:03] ikonia: downloaded the driver, killed gnome and ran it. i didnt download latest though but .15 the latest had a wrong kernel image with it [09:03] is worth it to have 64 bit version ? .. any big difference between 32 in 64 ? [09:03] Okay, using cfdisk I was able to make ...bah0p1 and ...bah0p2, which appears to be what the installer wants. Once this mkfs is done, I'll try installing again. [09:03] anyone try the ebox platform? [09:03] strange: why did you download the driver, and not use the official/supported restricted driver manager ? [09:03] theuros1, 32 [09:03] 64-32=32 [09:04] is anyone here a memeber of GNAA? [09:04] Leapo: actually, 8.04 LTS is one of the stablest linuxes out there, IMO... [09:04] Loshki: Either way, I havn't heard of either of them spontaneously combusting, which is good... [09:04] what you mean by that ? [09:04] LordDragon, it's actually a binary file which you'd have to double click to run or run from the terminal [09:04] hallow i was on wineHQ but i thay don't help me | i want install eset remote server (on wine). I have one error, I think one folder can't create, in this folder should be configuration. Any body know what i can more [09:04] ikonia: because the official restricted driver is old? this one works fine, the restricted drivers mess up the console resolution just the same [09:04] Loshki: and still 8.04 has annoying bugs [09:04] Prabz, ok. where would i look for that? [09:04] Loshki: I'd be afraid of the bug rearing its head again, after two distros in a row having it [09:04] Leapo: no, but with the exception of you, I'd have said the same about 9.X and 10.04... [09:04] whats GNAA? [09:04] gay nigger association of america [09:04] is there anyone here willing to help me, please? [09:04] strange: as fasta said, the nvidia drivers are not controlled by the xorg drivers, they are frame buffers [09:04] Loshki: debian or centos are better in terms of being "stable" ;-) [09:04] daMull: does it? What are they? [09:05] you said a bad word [09:05] ikonia: so i have to alter stuff in kernel ? [09:05] i hate racism [09:05] ikonia, do you know how I can get gcc on my system? I posted the error above. [09:05] Loshki: try to access an smb share in gnome .. [09:05] daMull: definitely agree that centos is super stable. [09:05] ikonia, it illustrates well how bad Ubuntu QA is. [09:05] strange: just frame buffer config in your boot options [09:06] How long before wubi-install.org is usually updated? I'm going to have to pull the link from my site soonish if'n it stays on 9.10 [09:06] Loshki: its rhel based right, i havent used it yet? [09:06] daMull: Ah, I don't run gnome... [09:06] ikonia: do you have an url to where i can read up on it? [09:06] How do you add a computer to Ubuntu One when you already have an account? [09:06] fasta: have you done an apt-get update first, or made sure your on a repo that's fully populated [09:06] strange: no [09:06] ikonia: ok google here i come :) [09:06] thanks for the information at least [09:06] ikonia, I use a french official mirror. If that doesn't work the process needs to be changed. [09:06] tehowe: A compatible version of Wubi should be on the 10.04 CD [09:06] geekphreak: yes, I think centos is rhel with the branding removed and no support contract... [09:07] fasta: no - mirrors can break [09:07] fasta: it's nothing to do with process, it's to do with network traffic [09:07] LordDragon, http://bcm43xx.berlios.de/ [09:07] ok [09:07] leapo: Compare to 2MB download for new users... vs having to burn dvd :( [09:07] ikonia, so, the only way to be sure is to use the main servers? [09:07] fasta: verify the packages exist on that server if possible, make sure you've done an apt-get update (sucessul one) first so that the file list is valid [09:07] geekphreak: look it up at their homepage [09:07] LordDragon, http://www.broadcom.com/support/802.11/linux_sta.php [09:07] fasta: the repo's are browsable by http, you could manually check it [09:07] ikonia, that's what people who know what they are talking about a broken distributed system. [09:08] Prabz, ok this is weird. i reactivated the broadcom thing and it found my wifi network and connected to it [09:08] geekpreak: centos.org [09:08] tehowe: First of all, you have to download that much data anyway (where do you think the 2MB installer gets the data from). Second, you don't need to burn the ISO, just mount it. [09:08] maybe i didnt need b43 after all [09:08] LordDragon, Great, so now no need to get b43 [09:08] Loshki: but after all, ubuntu 8.04 is a solid desktop linux [09:08] hi all people good morning [09:08] Prabz, yeah it seems that way :) [09:08] tehowe: The Wubi installer on the CD will use the data on teh CD itself for installation, so it doesn't download it twice [09:08] Is it possible to theme Tk apps? There is some information on the web suggesting it was planned (http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/hardy/man3/ttk_intro.3tk.html) but I haven't been able to find more [09:08] LordDragon, actually STA seems to work for b43 as well [09:08] LordDragon, see here: http://www.broadcom.com/support/802.11/linux_sta.php [09:08] Does anyone have a better quality of this: http://www.adobetutorialz.com/content_images/AdobePhotoshop/ART-D/tutorial188/final.jpg [09:09] Wait, where'd the +1 go. I don't want to be in #ubuntu it's too high traffic. [09:09] daMull: I've always thought 8.04 was awesome. I hope 10.04 works out as well as it did... [09:09] fasta: is you're unhappy with it - don't use it, stop complaining it,s getting old, I'll help you fix your problems where possible, but stop complaining, if it doesn't meet your needs, use another distro [09:09] can anyone explain me how to set the correct ports or something to torrentflux, cant download torrents and have to do all i thikn [09:09] How do you add a computer to Ubuntu One when you already have an account? [09:09] leapo: I know I know. NOt that most Windows users will know how to mount an ISO. It's just easier and sexier for the n00bs. Anyways, I gather the Wubi team will get top it eventually? Or is that defunct now and people *have* to get it off the ISO? [09:09] i have used ip tables, but cant connect to tracker [09:09] weak === necrogami is now known as Necrogami [09:09] is there are a list if known problems with 10.04 somewere? Are there known issues one should be aware of before upgrading? [09:09] MJEvans: +1 is on hiatus now that 10.04 was released today. 10.04 support is now in this channel [09:09] kaddi, read the release notes [09:09] ikonia, I would gladly switch to a system in which I have to do no system administration, except when I want to install anything, as opposed to upgrades. [09:10] ikonia, please recommend one. [09:10] kaddi, release notes [09:10] tehowe: It'll probably be updated in teh next couple days. But if you want it _now_, you'll have to grab the whole ISO rather than the installer than the ISO :-P [09:10] Anyone just answering my question [09:10] fasta: distrowatch.com - tons of options [09:10] leapo: Ok thx [09:10] ikonia, all equally broken. [09:10] fasta, please join ##linux or ##windows [09:10] ikonia, otherwise I would have heard a real suggestion by now. [09:10] well for one, the interface tab is missing from the appearances dialog [09:10] kaddi, http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/1004 [09:10] Prabz: thanks [09:11] fasta: there are plenty that are not broken, and I don't have these issues with ubuntu either, so lets either fix your problems where we can, or be quiet [09:11] HELP! How do I get Blackjack back on my games? [09:11] has ANYONE gotten hdmi audio passthrough working? [09:11] hey all :) if i'm updating from 10.04 beta2 to 10.04 full, can i just run the update manager and that's it? or do i need to do anything? [09:11] ikonia, yes, I will just use the official mirror and get crawling download speeds. [09:11] Anyone just answering my question [09:11] fasta: last time - stop moaning, [09:11] does anyone know if you can do a netboot install for ubuntu-server? i followed these brief instructions, but couldn't find any netboot files specific for ubuntu-server: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/NetbootInstallFromInternet [09:12] say how does icecat compare to ff?

Has been going to about 90 minutes already - is progressing, but incredibly slowly (which is odd, since my machine is uber powerfull). The estimated time has not decreased for about an hour!!

It asks for the key,and starts to connect, but it fails to do that [09:14] is this normall during the upgrade? [09:14] !slow|mrfelton [09:14] mrfelton: The Ubuntu repositories and ISO mirrors are currently under heavy load. Please consider using !torrents to download ISO images, and be patient with APT updates. Also, try changing !mirrors [09:14] 10.04 out now. Is an upgrade without problems possible? anyone try it?

[09:15] !controls | LordDragon [09:15] LordDragon: In Lucid, the minimize, maximize, and close buttons have been moved to the left side.

[09:16] unggnu, yes, but it's over the lasty hour, the time remaining time eestimate has been slowly increasing, and the general speed of progression has slowed dramatically [09:16] so, are the buttons gonna stay on the left...? [09:16] fasta: try build-essientials [09:16] joaopinto: yes the release notes say so. I was haping the problems would be contained two releases after jaunty [09:16] silversk8r, now is it able to detect the network? [09:16] mrfelton, during an upgrade, it will be slower since it is pulling all the packages you had installed before and updating hundreds of packages [09:16] mrfelton, what is the current status, which application? [09:16] 10.04 out now. Is an upgrade without problems possible? anyone try it? [09:16] python-pexpect [09:16] fasta: what was the package that was breaking again ? [09:16] mrfelton, fresh installs are usally faster than upgrades since they don't have all the stuff apt-get install'ed [09:16] fasta: as in the dep that's missing [09:17] whats the best flash fix for 64 bit lucid? [09:17] ikonia, gcc [09:17] silversk8r, atleast the switch workaround worked now?? :-) [09:17] rethus i have an fully encrypted 9.10 with some specialities upgraded without a problem.. [09:17] Prabz, it detcts the network and tries to connect, it even asks for the network key [09:17] rethus: An update from 9.10 should be rather painless. I updated to 10.04 without problems when it was still in Alpha3 stage. [09:17] Ugh. This foo1 versus foop1 business is clearly the problem. cfdisk claims to create foo1 but really creates foop1. [09:17] ubuntuaddicted: nice, whats about the new features... are there good new ones? [09:18] Hi. Is it possible to change the server from which i download the upgrade to 10.04?

[09:19] Prabz: ok [09:19] so grub shouldnt be giving me an error on boot then? [09:19] ikonia, yes, I want to run karmic. [09:19] is there any way to get the indicator applet to watch gmail inboxes? [09:19] How do you add a computer to Ubuntu One when you already have an account? [09:19] fasta: ah, ok, well, I suspect it's probably down to the deps being changed due to the PPA's [09:19] ikonia, like I have been doing for since it was released. [09:19] unggnu, package status change? [09:20] fasta: I've got gcc fine here from a 9.10 repo [09:20] i must use alternate version of iso to upgrade from iso, or i can just use the normal iso?

[09:20] FlintWestWood, It's missing [09:20] i just installed 10.04 with a single HDD... when booting im getting: error hd0,1 out of disk [09:20] ikonia, none of those should cause this. [09:21] joaopinto, ok :) so i download the wrong iso :| silly me [09:21] fasta: I wonder if one of them has upgraded something that means the deps can't be installed [09:21] FlintWestWood, It's not in software center either [09:21] mrfelton, all I can say to do is close all apps and leave it alone for a while [09:21] mrfelton, try skype 2.0.0.72, not the latest beta [09:21] mrfelton, it list the current upgraded package. If this changes after some time it is still working [09:21] RickFisher: fire up synaptic and see if its in there. Are you using lucid? [09:21] yes [09:21] rabidweezle, try skype 2.0.0.72, not the latest beta [09:22] Prabz, we are talking mid-update here [09:22] Prabz, and it's not for me, I don't use skype [09:22] RickFisher: one sec, let me check the testing maching [09:22] hello guys... I'm using ubuntu 9.10 64Bit and want to upgrade to 10.04 . does ubuntu automaticly upgrade it to 10.04 64bit ?

[09:23] abhijain: I personally do not rate the install within windows (wubi) option [09:23] abhijain, there is no issue with grub anymore, you can do a regular install [09:23] ikonia, even after removing all the PPAs, I have the same issue. [09:23] KeithWeisshar, there is no official DVD version [09:23] KeithWeisshar, if you want to install on people's computers that don't have internet, yes. [09:23] <_Commander_> i need some help guys after some updates arround 120mb my computer will not boot [09:23] are there only official cd versions [09:23] fasta: removing the PPA's won't change it if the depds have been changed [09:23] fasta: that just removes the repos from more updates [09:24] on-disk.com has dvd versions [09:24] joaopinto, there have (official dvd) [09:24] oops, I'm thinking debian dvd's sorry xD [09:24] fasta: I'mn not %100 but I'd guess that is the issue as 9.10's gcc is working fine [09:24] ikonia: i had to edit grub.cfg setgfxpayload and now its all sorted [09:24] tmukmkd, there are ? show me the ubuntu.com page for those :) [09:24] fasta: (in general terms I mean) [09:24] ikonia, so, how do I get in a good state again?

[09:25] RickFisher: search synaptic for gnome-games [09:25] Fobia, or u could use virtualbox [09:25] ikonia, he may already have installed conflicting packages [09:25] install that, it should have youre blackjack in it [09:25] fasta: you could also look at repo pinning, however I think you're beyond that at this state [09:25] ikonia, AFAIK, the package manager should say what is conflicting. [09:25] joaopinto: I believe he has [09:26] fasta: no it shouldn't [09:26] wonder when sun/oracle will add a ppa for lucid [09:26] Prabz: if I'd like to run mIRC/Winamp/Corel Draw/Y!M under Ubuntu, what would you suggest, please? :) [09:26] ikonia, it only says "we are not going to install FOO", but not WHY. [09:26] fasta: it not if it's not aware or has a hardcoded dep, as gcc [09:26] Fobia: wine is your only option dont know if all those work [09:26] How to re-install adobe flash for all browsers ? [09:26] fasta: it does, it says it needs a package which it's not going to install, so it's marking gcc as broken [09:26] Fobia: im pretty sure corel draw isnt gonna happen though [09:26] does cpu power or ram matter in the speed of how fast a hard drive can be scanned for bad sectors? [09:26] fasta: it's not going to explain why the dep is broken you need to check chat [09:26] fasta, package manager is telling you exactly what is happnening, however because you don't have a sufficient knowledge on the repositories you have setup you can't easily undestand what is wrong [09:26] I understand. [09:27] Fobia, u have Xchat instead of Mirc, try amarok or xmms instead of winamp, gyachi instead og Y!M [09:27] fasta: however this is a big "if" I'm right, I may be on the wrong track [09:27] irssi! [09:27] I understand. (2) [09:27] or xirssi if you want a gui [09:27] Or Konversation :P [09:27] Thank you kindly for your time. Be safe :) [09:27] Fobia, gyachi has native Y!M support [09:27] I see [09:27] I'll think about it, thank you [09:27] ffs, 10.4 released with https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/558910 still there [09:27] Ciao [09:27] Fobia, gyachi includes chatrooms too :) [09:27] Fobia, audacious uses winamp 2 skins even [09:27] joaopinto, I am sorry, but if software can create a state in which it cannot produce a constructive proof of what is wrong, it is broken. [09:27] I cannot find release notes on 10.04, can someone take a stick and point the direction? [09:27] fasta: that's PPA's [09:27] Useless! [09:27] the networkmanager is in autostart but the wifi is not startin(lamp is not blinking), yesterday it was fine. i started nm-applet ins console, and know it is running, but still no wifi blinking. then i tried to change the autostart command from nm-applet --sm-disable to nm-applet. no sucess. what's the problem? [09:28] ikonia, PPA's simply add entries to the data base. [09:28] Got an odd but simple question, if anyone familliar with unetbootin could spare a minute. [09:28] fasta: you use them at your own risk, they are not official and can and do conflict with ubuntu packages [09:28] fasta: no they don't [09:28] ikonia, what is your source that they don't? [09:28] fasta: they contain software with additional repos/files in them that can and sometimes do conflict with ubuntus base package [09:28] fasta, I am sorry to tell you that software that not blocks users from destroying their own systems, you got into that scenario because you have chosen to use untrusted/not recommended software sources [09:28] !ext4 [09:28] is the sound broken in ubuntu 10.4 [09:28] !ppa [09:28] A Personal Package Archive (PPA) can provide alternate software not normally available in the offical Ubuntu repositories - Looking for a PPA? See https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+ppas - WARNING: PPAs are unsupported third-party packages, and should be used at your own risk. [09:28] KeithWeisshar: No. [09:28] joaopinto, that is an assertion. [09:29] i am trying to recover my software raid. when i do --examine on sda1 it shows 2 failed drives. when i do --examine on sdc1 (one of the failed drives) it shows all drives are functioning properly [09:29] <_Commander_> need help my computer is stuck at loading inital kernel [09:29] thecookie, that bug was also present in karmic, wasn't it? [09:29] someone posted a link about an alsa driver bug 558910 [09:29] joaopinto, humm only link have. but no dvd download option. so im wrong :D why they do that? [09:29] joaopinto, we don't know that. It is just your guess. [09:29] Prabz: Not sure. I have no sound at least. Not had it since beta 2 [09:29] fasta: based on the error and the PPA's is a reasonable guess that you can now investigate [09:29] _Commander_, is this after install? [09:29] fasta: it's quite common with certain PPA's [09:29] fasta, that is a fact, the only way to make gcc uninstallable on a healthy system is: 1) a mirror problem, 2) breaking system core packages/dependencies with 3rd parties repositories === b0w is now known as zz_b0w [09:30] thecookie, there's also a bug in phonon under KDE, sometimes sound works for KDE apps, sometimes it doesn't [09:30] are there still no dvd downloads of ubuntu [09:30] fasta, yes I know, it's not a guess [09:30] Tested pulseaudio -k, running alsamixer [09:30] ikonia, if there is a conflict, the package manager should say "package foo prevents package bar from being installed". [09:30] nothing works [09:30] ikonia, which is also what it does normally. [09:30] fasta: not when the conflict is from a 3rd party repo it doesn't know about [09:30] hi.. lucid moves my mouse cursor faster in horizontal directions than in vertical directions.. how do i fix that!? [09:30] thecookie, tried removing all references to pulseaudio? [09:30] <_Commander_> rab [09:30] fasta, the package manager does say so, on th is case it tells you are missing dependencies [09:30] ikonia, and what is this conflict? [09:30] Basically unetbootin won't see the USB hard drive I'd like to install to, and attempting to force it to use that drive letter failed. I've done the usual check through the bugs list, checked the forums, etc.. no luck. Anyone got any ideas? [09:30] the freakin karmic wont upgrade to lucid..........

If people have audio problems, I normally advise 1. check personal sound settings, 2. check system sound settings 3. Check if the card is recognized... That normally does the trick... Your case seems to be different. [09:36] _Commander_, ugh, you might want to get one somehow [09:36] My Problem is that the upgrade says it cannot calculate the upgrade so it cannot upgrade. [09:36] iceroot: is there a 64bit version of the alternate CD? [09:36] threefcata, have you run janitor and Bleach? [09:36] i just upgraded to lucid and now apache is asking to download php files.

The correct card shows up in every dialog, the sound works well in widnwos. Done everything I've been adviced. Maybe I should try to remove pulseaudio and install again [09:36] why would --examine on sda1 and sdc1 return 2 different results if they are in the same raid? [09:37] <_Commander_> i think i have old ubuntu [09:37] RickFisher: no, i'm on 8.04 [09:37] _Commander_, if you have a thumb drive, you can probably make a pendrive linux rescue drive and chroot in, and check it out [09:37] 10 .04 still have bugy [09:37] _Commander_, that will work, if it will boot [09:37] what's the recommended way for installing LAMP?

That should be the same as remove/install... [09:37] does anyone know the gui tool for mounting seconday hdd at startup? [09:37] threefcata, Go into synaptic manager and install Bleach and Computer Janitor [09:38] They will remove excess files [09:38] _Commander_, if it's live cd style, you should be good [09:38] threefcata, Bleach WILL remove files you might want to READ the warning as they pop up as you check the boxes [09:38] _Commander_, look up instructions how to chroot on google, then you can get in, reinstall/setup grub properly, w/e you need to do, it's hard to see what's happening until you chroot the drive.

[09:43] joaopinto, ok, so I add karmic-updates and it should work. [09:43] fasta, and your policy output shows ubuntu8, which means the last apt-get update failed or you don't have the -updates enabled, or you are using a broken mirror [09:43] fasta, yes, because you already installed packages from -updates, and now you are trying to install from the initial version [09:43] _Commander_, so you can go in, find the problem, and fix it [09:44] <_Commander_> rabi ok booted up on live cd...

Anyone who know something about how to fix the grub_puts_ error [10:00] Christoph_vW, mount --bind /proc chrootdir/proc [10:01] SandGorgon: First time I hear that. I just take the kernel there and reboot my system ... ;) [10:01] cerebro, do ps -aef |grep -i kwin [10:01] before issuing the chroot [10:01] same for /dev [10:01] ok [10:01] minimec, oh... are you running 2.6.34 then ? [10:01] grrr [10:01] henrikh, are u using the isos released/linked to on the ubuntu website? or are you using the unofficial isos released before ubuntu's website published the links? [10:01] SandGorgon: No, but I used 2.6.33 on karmic for example... [10:01] hi. just updated to 10.04 and it won't boot anymore. if I press F2 it has some error abuot plymouth main process 296 killed by segv signal [10:01] has anyone else seen this? [10:01] jbu: I upgraded from Update Manager [10:02] I think the problem is related to something with external drives [10:02] henrikh, upgrade via update manager sucks horribly. i've done it before, learned my mistake...it's just not trustworthy [10:02] could it be that the default panel looks different from the default gnome panel style? [10:02] johntramp, it looks like plymouth or mountall is crashing [10:02] SandGorgon: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ [10:02] johntramp, can you boot into rescude mode ? [10:02] SandGorgon: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v2.6.34-rc5-lucid/ [10:02] jbu: You think it's a reinstallation then? :( [10:02] when i boot 10.04 disc its just the background and a blank gray box with nothing inside, anyone experience this? [10:03] minimec, ok.. thanks [10:03] joaopinto: i can get a command line using alt+sysrq+i [10:03] tommy^m: The disc might be defect [10:03] henrikh, I'm not saying it will definitely help. All i'm saying is that update-manager upgrade doesn't work perfectly [10:03] henrikh: nope, burn several discs [10:03] johntramp, try "mountall" there [10:03] hasnt worked perfectly in the past* [10:03] hi all, how does one choose what service starts first when booting? [10:03] joaopinto: okay, 1 sec. [10:03] SandGorgon: Just install the linux-image for your platform. That's it. [10:03] SandGordon: the method you posted is nice for a kde desktop but it dont shows noting on gnome :S [10:04] jbu: I think I'll just backup all my files and reinstall :( [10:04] henrikh, though i'm having enough problems as it is with a clean install [10:04] henrikh, more evidence to me that the half year release schedule doesnt work [10:04] It'll take hours to get all the packages reinstalled... :( I kinda start to miss Gentoo [10:04] jbu: Well [10:05] on my 32-bit Ubuntu server, the "linux-server" metapackage depends on "linux-generic-pae" rather than the server kernels. is this correct? [10:05] jbu, no schedule will work if there is none one involded on testing, it works for me because I made sure it would work during these 6 months [10:05] hello [10:05] How do I know what services start first when booting? [10:05] forbjok: thats a good thing [10:05] I don't think it's the 6 months schedule that is main reason [10:05] but time pressure could be an issue [10:05] There is a bug [10:05] how can i mount a network shared folder as a folder using ubuntu ? [10:05] brianherman: why is that? [10:05] forjbok: Physical Address Extention it allows for more than 4gb for ram [10:06] joaopinto, yes, but to be a OS that competes with windows and mac's os, if they don't have the testers they shouldn't stick to a half year schedule [10:06] I checked [10:06] AngryKoala, /etc/init and /etc/rc* [10:06] henrikh just because theres a half yearly release cycle dont mean your bound to use it, new cars come out everyday but i update every 10 years. and i ghenerally update my OSs 12months to 2 years [10:06] joaopinto: thanks - machine is working again :) [10:06] jbu, why not ? it works great for those who care about it [10:06] koshari: It's too late now [10:06] Christoph_vW, great :) [10:06] joaopinto, and that has the order in which they boot? [10:06] joaopinto: it says it could not connect to plymouth [10:06] henrikh to late for you, [10:06] AngryKoala, the order is hard to identify, you need to check the scripts [10:07] brianherman: yes, i know, but this particular server only has 2GB ram. it's just a file server, so it doesn't need any more. the others are running 64-bit, and they are using server kernels. but isn't there a -pae server kernel? [10:07] joaopinto, alright, will do, thanks [10:07] johntramp, ok, nowadays its a bit harder to debug because you need plymouth to boot [10:07] I'm trying to upgrade from karmic to lucid via update-manager, but when I press the Upgrade button, update manager hangs. Is this is a known issue? [10:07] joaopinto: then stuff about could not mount swap [10:07] koshari, jbu and others: Thanks for the help [10:07] <_Commander_> rabi seems that it boots now after update-grub [10:07] In 10.04 the boot loader and grub are bugged ? [10:07] I'll just reinstall [10:07] BiggFREE: I got big problems with it [10:07] BiggFREE, again? [10:07] joaopinto: says the device is busy when trying to mount swap [10:08] Hi. I've spent last night upgrading my desktop to 10.04 from 9.10. Is there a way to upgrade my laptop using my desktop as the host rather than downloading another GB+ of the same files? [10:08] Did you solve them ? [10:08] DMRAID5 - is anyone using this successfully in 10.04??? [10:08] johntramp, you will to try some debugging on the boot [10:08] i cant remove bonager? after update an error came for this! [10:08] IS anyone familiar with bridging? I don't get it [10:08] johntramp, http://handypenguin.blogspot.com/2010/04/when-recovery-mode-fails-to-boot.html might help [10:08] Are* [10:09] is there anyway i can remove this thing!? [10:09] woohooo lucid in the house. I had some trouble at first, retrieving packages during upgrade, but then I chhanged sources, and it was fine [10:09] dxtr its so you only have one IP address for 2 devices [10:10] somebody! [10:10] johntramp, you can also try the "nomodeset" option, on the kernel options [10:10] koshari: Yeah, but what if I want to create vlan? [10:10] swordz: yes, all the packages that were downloaded to your desktop are cached in /var/cache/apt/archive. If you copy this directory to your laptop, it should skip re-downloading them and use the cached copies instead... [10:10] For example for a bunch of virtualized qemu machines [10:10] Is it safe using update-grup now ? In 10.04 [10:10] I wish totem player had some forward buttons instead of always having to use the arrow kets I could use the mouse [10:10] Anyone else have problems with suspend/resume on Toshibal alptop?

[10:13] I never upgrade. always makes clean installs, I do that from bad experiences from almost every upgrade [10:13] johntramp, you are likely to get into the same issue, there were some major changes on the boot process which have been causing problems on some untested scenarios :\ === switchgirl_ is now known as switchgirl [10:13] Booting screen is very strange.

[10:59] vlc isn't very good with that I think [10:59] ChrisPW, it seems the default route is not being set automatically [10:59] gartral: i keep getting this error Package w32codecs is not available, but is referred to by another package. This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source [10:59] vlc > amarok [10:59] didnt know anyone used amarok [10:59] :/ [10:59] how to make my pc and my cell phone(blackberry 9520 ) to share the internet connection(edge, or 3g network)? so i can access the internet almost anywhere??

[11:01] I loved amarok while i was on Pclos, now im using exaile, vlc is good for stand alone files, but for a library, im thinking that exaile smashes to bits anything else out there. mind you im limited to 1024x600 resolution [11:01] gartral: how do i do that? [11:01] banshee looks more like Itune but its slow (mono api...) [11:01] Wage: if you're about to do a clean install, then yes.

Install Grub2 onto the main MBR, not of WinXP.

[11:39] erUSUL: thanks, that worked [11:40] koshari: a wubi install can exist in a clean ntfs partition without the presence of windows [11:40] grndslm Great help.... [11:40] sam204475, while booting up select install ubuntu [11:40] sam204475 if you want a full linux install you should install it on bare metal, but be warned you will loose your windows install [11:40] n then install [11:40] sunk8: let me check [11:40] arcsky: yes the show stopper bug was fixed and lucid was released [11:40] markmuetz: no problem [11:40] I WANT TO LOSE WINDOWS.....!! yay ~ so i should just make an ISO and boot from that? [11:40] erUSUL: thanks [11:40] sam204475: yes, you already answered your own question [11:40] alex_joni: I had a similar error with karmic when I had overwritten the Windows loader instead! [11:40] sam204475 use a usb device to install , [11:40] i cant [11:41] why [11:41] i dont know. [11:41] sam204475: anything is possible [11:41] it wont boot from usb [11:41] i tried so many times. [11:41] sam204475: what was it that you said you should do, again? [11:41] you may need a compatible usb key, [11:41] grndslm thats not true. having sex with a dinosaur is impossible. [11:41] change boot order [11:41] enan, thanks [11:41] im gonna make an iso file [11:41] sam204475: i just raped my gecko yesterday [11:41] hipitihop, np [11:41] and then do a CD install. [11:41] grndslm close enough for me. [11:42] Ok one more question for you guys .... What is linux? [11:42] if I have 5+ machines to upgrade ... is there a way to download and burn one iso and then upgrade all machines from that ? [11:42] !linux [11:42] Linux is the kernel (core) of the Ubuntu operating system. Many operating systems use Linux as a kernel. For more information on Linux in general, visit http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux [11:42] sam204475: what is google? [11:42] i dont think i installed linux on ubuntu. where do i get it [11:42] hello [11:42] sam204475: some questions are best left to google [11:42] omg [11:42] lawl [11:42] sam204475: learning how to research is the first part to becoming a man instead of a bot [11:43] HAHA i know im just shittin with you ~ thanks for your help guys ~ have a good one~~~ :D [11:43] SAM204475: I recommend u read through the wikipedia articles. They are good. [11:43] psantoni: re [11:43] I have problem with disconnection from wlan after hibernation [11:43] how the heck do i clone audio output from one audio jack to another, i know EVERY point on my board for audio is bi-directional.. how do i make USE of that? [11:43] sunk 8 sure will. [11:43] see ya all ~~~~! [11:43] sam204475: good luck with installing Ubuntu [11:43] Chripher, tried with WICD ? [11:43] See ya again sam204475. [11:43] hipitihop: what is that [11:43] sunk8: one strange thing is that I'm booting from an external CD drive (USB) [11:44] sunk8: though it shouldn't confuse grub2 === Mowiiii`Aw is now known as Mowee [11:44] alex_joni: external cd drive or usb? have u installed Ubuntu yet? [11:44] Chripher, see wicd.net [11:44] hi guys [11:44] h [11:44] alex_joni: or r u still in the live session? [11:44] hi [11:44] :) [11:45] steelbox, sorry so edit /etc/envirronement and set LANG="fr_FR.utf8" to LANG="fr_FR@euro" then do : sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales [11:45] Hi guys, I just upgraded kubuntu from 10.04 and I have several nasty bugs [11:45] Hi Daddy, Grandpa was callin' you some tym back... [11:45] A lady gave me a computer, its a 2.7-ish Celeron with 256 Ram, would this be good for the latest Ubuntu? [11:45] Hello Ubuntu Land! [11:45] Hello! [11:45] sunk8: external drive, I'm in the LiveCD session [11:45] steelbox, fr_FR@euro is an alias for Latin1 [11:45] running the install now [11:45] anyone else getting networkmanager failing to add default route when you manually input IP, mask, gateway, and DNS in a network with no DHCP [11:45] bluegoon: cpu is ok; but 256 is too low ram [11:45] guys, how can i install the 2.6.31.19 linux-kernel in lucid ... psb driver does not support yet the 2.6.32.1 [11:45] I was wondering if somebody could answer a question for me about installing 10.01 [11:46] does anyone know how to check if my computer is 32 or 64 bit? [11:46] thanks in advance for helping [11:46] hi [11:46] scratch that 10.04 [11:46] after upgrade mysql is stuck on restart [11:46] help me [11:46] hey i see that 10.04 is out, to upgrade do i do it through the software update or do i have to download a disk to install it over 9.10? [11:46] erUSUL, so you think I should try and upgrade to 256? [11:46] help me pleas [11:46] psantoni: need reboot? [11:46] plitter: grep --color ' lm ' /proc/cpuinfo [11:46] bluegoon: to 512 ? or more yes... [11:46] no [11:46] Chripher, I've been using it for a while on 9.10 and earlier and so far has been flawless.. not sure it will solve your hibernate problem (it does have option to reconnect after losing connection) [11:46] gartral pulse should do that , it lets you treat a dev as a source or sink [11:46] erUSUL, going to be hard finding normal DDR ram [11:46] alex_joni: If you want to 'install' Ubuntu to one of the partitions, do convert them to 'free space' with GParted beforehand. [11:46] psantoni: so, no effect in xterm [11:47] sunk8: did that.. removed the logical partition, and created a new one (primary this time) [11:47] erUSUL: and then? [11:47] Chripher, probably available through synaptic now [11:47] type : locale [11:47] plitter google the cpu [11:47] psantoni: doesn't work [11:47] bluegoon: you can try with a special 8for low specs comp) distro like puppy or slitaz linux [11:47] hipitihop: but it disconnects after 10 minutes again [11:47] anyone know? [11:47] I have "fr_FR.UTF-8" [11:47] sunk8: so I have sda1 (win), sda2 (swap), sda3(linux root) [11:47] Hi, I think I've found a bug. Can someone verify? [11:48] hi today ubuntu did an Zograde to 10.04 so far everything seem to have worked but since update my sound doesn't work anymore [11:48] alex_joni: u r allowed only 4 primary partitions on a disk. [11:48] plitter: if you see red colored output (an lm) then the cpu is 64 bits [11:48] koshari: http://pastebin.com/YNH6Ly1x i got this output.... [11:48] I have modified /etc/environment, do dpkg-reconfigure locales [11:48] testso, spit it out!! :) [11:48] erUSUL: aaaah, k:) thanks:) [11:48] try right-click in an application, e.g. firefox. Then hit a multimedia button, e.g. mute [11:48] sunk8: I know that.. [11:48] [daemon]: you became Ubuntu user? :) [11:48] Anyone know how to remove the stupid user-list from the GDM in 10.04? [11:48] try edit /etc/default/locale to... [11:48] Chripher, what disconnects, your wireless card ? [11:49] alex_joni: cool. Just install on sda3 now. That should do the trick. Be sure to install GRUB on /dev/sda at step 8 >> Advanced [11:49] if firefox is showing a menu, the multimedia button stops functioning, at least for me [11:49] sunk8: grub2 is the only thing new for me.. been using ubuntu and linux for a long time now [11:49] psantoni: I have LANG="fr_FR@euro" [11:49] How do you get hold of Mark Shuttleworth? [11:49] alex_joni: That's good to here. [11:49] anyone knows why this /usr/bin/perl -w /usr/share/debconf/frontend /var/lib/dpkg/info/mysql-server-5.1.postinst configure 5.1.41-3ubuntu12 [11:49] alex_joni:hear. [11:49] plitter whats your cpu? [11:49] is stuck forever? [11:49] obscurants1st: do you laptop with multimedia button? [11:49] sunk8: ;) I read irc typo just fine.. [11:49] is there a way to upgrade from one of the iso/cd builds ? [11:49] <|Avi|> i have found several bugs already in 10.04 [11:50] steelbox: @euro? there's still a non-euro locale? (or is this a holdover from non-UTF8 locales?) [11:50] obscurant1st: try right-click in an application, e.g. firefox. Then hit a multimedia button, e.g. mute [11:50] |Avi|: report them to launchpad [11:50] hipitihop: alternate cd can be used to upgrade [11:50] finally done upgrading 10.04 [11:50] !alternate | hipitihop [11:50] hipitihop: The Alternate CD is a classic text-mode install CD. It supports a wider range of hardware than the !LiveCD, and can also be used as an upgrade CD. Look for the link on the Ubuntu download page - See also !minimal [11:50] guys, how can i install the 2.6.31.19 linux-kernel in lucid ... psb driver does not support yet the 2.6.32.1 [11:50] !minimal [11:50] The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD [11:50] Random832: I don't know [11:50] <|Avi|> it wanted me to make an account and blah [11:50] koshari: already got help from erUSUL:) did grep --color ' lm ' /proc/cpuinfo and if i had lm in the output then it was 64 bit [11:50] gartral i tried hitting shift, but no luck. [11:50] Random832: I've asked to generate only 3 locales [11:50] erUSUL, thanks. [11:50] Would 9.10 be more stable than the current release? [11:50] I still get a "monitor going to sleep" while trying to install. [11:50] testso, for me, where ever i right click my multimedia key ie mute is not working! [11:50] anyone know how to fix this? [11:51] Random832: fr_FR.UTF-8, fr_FR@euro and en_US.UTF-8 [11:51] wouldn't an @euro locale be Latin9 rather than Latin1? [11:51] hi all [11:51] Random832: indeed, a misstake :) [11:51] obscurant1st: then we are two. I cant find a bug report for this on launchpad [11:51] alex_joni: I have Windows 7 on /dev/sda1, The rest is on an extended partition where I have Ubuntu on a /dev/sda9 ! [11:51] psantoni: any idea? [11:51] ok, then i think you can report it. [11:51] which might be better for french anyway, since then you've got œ and Ÿ [11:51] obscurant1st: I'll post it [11:51] Random832: imo € is in latin1 (if using LaTeX you can use € with latin1) [11:51] sunk8: hmm.. then probably the external USB CD confused it.. [11:52] i have never done this bug report! :s [11:52] anyone know a script which will grab list of all installed apps as file/script which can then be transfered to a fresh install to laod all said apps/packages ? [11:52] I rechecked /boot/grub/* and it all looks sane to me [11:52] after upgrade to 10.04 mysql doesn't work [11:52] iceroot: € is not in latin1. how do you use it with LaTeX? [11:52] I've just installed Ubuntu 10.04 on an asus eeepc 1005pe and the problem is: Network Manager is not working, I cannot see any icon in the top-right bar. The eth0 connection is working and iwconfig shows me the wifi card.... but why network manager is not shown? [11:52] * Random832 is betting that you use some \euro escape that's not actually dependent on character set [11:52] obscurant1st: np. What hardware do you have? [11:52] Anyone know howto get my monitor to work while trying to install? [11:52] <|Avi|> what is this password "keyring" thing all about, it keeps coming up [11:52] <|Avi|> is that a usb password thing? [11:52] Random832: \euro [11:53] testso, mine is vaio vgn-cr 353 [11:53] sunk8: but grub rescue> ls only showed (hd0), (hd0,2) and (hd0,1) [11:53] iceroot: that's not latin1. that is ascii. [11:53] strgalttab give me damaged screen, any hint to fix it [11:53] !password [11:53] Forgot your password? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LostPassword What's the root password? See !sudo. Don't see *** in password prompts? That's normal. Sudo doesn't ask for your password? It remembers you for several minutes. Please use strong passwords, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/StrongPasswords [11:53] Random832: ah ok [11:53] and all it proves is that fonts aren't limited to characters that are in the encoding you're using (obvious enough from all the math symbols you can use) [11:53] cisao room [11:53] sunk8: mind a pm, a bit noisy in here.. [11:54] ups, meen strgaltF1 give me damaged screen, any hint to fix it [11:54] alex_joni: no problem [11:54] were aRE italian xchat for ubuntu? [11:54] stephan: 'damaged' how?

[12:07] C_REATiVE me too [12:07] : the live cd or the install? [12:07] Chripherok, noo idea... to date I have only used WEP (I know old and insecure) and it would keep the passphrase in /etc/network/interfaces ... good luck .. hope wicd helps you easily reconnect after hibernation.

I was about to buy the new Windows 7, but decided to try ubuntu instead. I downloaded and burnt 10.4 32bit, it installed fine and so forth. I booted into ubuntu and it asked me if I wanted to install restricted Nvidia drivers (for my GeForce 7600GT), so I went for the one that said "recommended". WHen it was done it asked me to reboot, and I did. However now it is stuck in an infinite loop: [12:40] karthiksharu: regardless, you basically just can't have any of the partitions that will be resizing mounted on your file system. Can you post the output of sudo fdisk -l to a pastebin so we can see what your hard disk looks like? [12:40] Hello! [12:40] dreyk, there are several ibus packages, you can apt-cache search ibus for their names [12:40] Solmon: Infinite loop where? [12:40] Solmon, did you install the (recommended) driver? [12:41] my this morining my alarm was rhythmbox-client --play-uri=http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio/listen/live/r4.asx as it claims -duddenly that radio is a text file [12:41] om26er: yes [12:41] bazhang, thank god i found someone, can you help me out with this? i was frustrated on 9.10 as scim ibus nor gcin working so i changed to 10.04 now [12:41] !ics | Cyc [12:41] Cyc: If you want to share the internet connection of your ubuntu machine with other machines in the network see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetConnectionSharing - You may also use !firestarter: http://www.fs-security.com/docs/connection-sharing.php [12:41] anyone know howto fix my monitor going black before installing even? [12:41] arand: it reboots when the ubuntu boot screen is loading [12:41] Solmon, how far the system boots [12:41] Solmon, means where does it hang [12:41] Hey the problem is I am in the desert right now and I don't have any blank cds or a removable hard drive. For this I need a cd. If there is a chance I will lose my home folder (I know what it is ;) cut me a little credit) than I will just wait until I can back it up [12:41] om26er: it doesn't hang, it just suddenly reboots during the ubuntu logo with the dots under [12:41] geekphreak: couldn't find it easily. you have a direct url? [12:42] switchgirl: ha. so you were late? [12:42] thax [12:42] hydester: 1 sec , let me see [12:42] i dont want to mess up, i only need chinese pinyin input to write simplified chinese [12:42] UbuntuLily, did you read that link? [12:42] Solmon: try editing the boot options in grub, removing "quiet" and "splash", and see if there are any telling errors [12:42] Yes that link said I needed to boot from the live CD [12:42] dreyk, did you install the relevant packages? [12:42] thanks ubottu that way seems much easier, will give it a go [12:42] arand: THank you, I will try that and report back! [12:42] TheAngel: are we talking about before the desktop CD boots?

[12:47] arand: I tried that but maybe I'm doing it wrong. I mounted the root filesystem on /tmp and edited the mountall.conf file, but when I rebooted the changes I made were not there :-/ [12:47] TheAngel, try alternate cd may be [12:48] sam_2007 i can, have you installed the advanced settings app?

[12:52] hydester: no worries [12:52] karthiksharu_: well, one other way than what you've already heard would be to basically delete the partitions now from your current installation. Then create a bigger partition out of those deleted partitions [12:52] ActionParsnip: Thank you! [12:52] bogdan_, still no luck getting that page to load, probably as its the day after release so hit especially hard at the moment [12:52] Is there a way to image my hard drive for a full rollback without booting to a CD?

[12:52] karthiksharu_: then copy over stuff from the home partition, and change that to be the partition that is mounted as home. [12:52] UbuntuLily: because the files will change in that time [12:52] UbuntuLily: cd rescue disk would be nice , like clonezilla [12:52] 10 minutes :D [12:53] TheAngel, yes for 32bit [12:53] I am talking about if I manage to find a removable HD [12:53] no...flash in browser [12:53] brb, thx koshari [12:53] karthiksharu_: I don't know if that is basically what you want. [12:53] dabaR: yeah .. that shounds good ... [12:53] ill let you guys know if that works. [12:53] UbuntuLily: the partition MUST be unmounted to image so the livecd is great for this [12:53] ActionParsnip: i thnk that may be overkill. i am not giving up on my laptop... esp ubuntu ;) [12:53] UbuntuLily, something like clonezilla you mean? [12:53] karthiksharu_: but then the old home stays unused. That's the downside. [12:53] ActionParsnip: overkill for me, that is [12:53] !flash > xapel [12:53] xapel, please see my private message [12:53] moetunes: no...its flash in a browser [12:53] UbuntuLily you coul duse rsync [12:53] YAY it works now, turns out the HP Nvidia motherboard in the dv6000 series doesn't work that well with the installation graphics drivers, as soon as ubuntu realised I had nvidia I managed to install the drivers despite my distorted screen, where would I go to report this incident?

[12:59] f4: good lad, ok you may need some boot options but i'd format the usb and try recreate it [12:59] and as I found on the internet I tried renaming the directory isolinux to syslinux and isolinux.cfg to syslinux.cfg [12:59] anyway, in regards to ubuntu 10 install, i have a new drive that i will use and then move files over. my question is this... what is the recommendation for file system config? ext4? encrypted fs? i have nothing to hide, but certainly the day my drive dies and i need to toss it, i rather it be encrypted instead of worrying about my personal data being dug up [12:59] Hi i just installed ubuntu lts and love it but I have a problem. I'm trying to open an .rb file and it won't let me in gedit [12:59] anyone know what this means [12:59] or how to fix this? [12:59] ActionParsnip> I already did it several times [12:59] geekphreak: let me paste /var/log/messages [12:59] abhilash: on my Hardy install, "sudo apt-get install libopenal0a". being on Lucid, the suffix for you will probably be different from '0a', so search using "apt-cache search openal" [12:59] Hello, I've been upgraded my distro [12:59] hi! G Morning! Just updated my Karmic to Lucid and now I'm not able to install python2.4. Anyone knows why? Found this link which says package was deleted but I'm not quite sure https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/lucid/i386/python2.4-minimal [12:59] hydester: there is likely a default [13:00] to 10.04 and there is some problem with volume control [13:00] there is anymore on my systray [13:00] hydester: ext4 is good enough, any other operating system on that machine like windows? [13:00] f4: if you boot to the cd you can use usb creator there or you can install and use usb-creator-gtk in karmic [13:00] and cannot add it [13:00] LjL: thanks for that, i'll check...... [13:00] fourcolors: what's in a .rb file? [13:00] I already installed karmic this way in the past [13:00] I hate to reference the devil, but as a former Windows gal I am talking about an app that will access Shadow Services or the like. Duno if such a function exists for ubuntu [13:00] how do I stop empathy from scrolling to the bottom all the time? [13:00] hydester: I think encryption is a layer above fs type. Meaning you can have any type and encryt [13:00] geekphreak: no windows. [13:00] hydester: i recommened encryption, when asked during install though [13:00] abhilash, I searched in software center and openal is the first result [13:01] geekphreak: is it drive encryption or just per user? [13:01] !resetpanels [13:01] To reset the gnome panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » [13:01] bazhang, i got ibus-pinyin installed how do i use ibus now? [13:01] using the same computer, the same drive and the same soft (unetbootin) [13:01] moetunes: it's a ruby file .. kind of like python [13:01] geekphreak: http://suigeneris.pastebin.com/42y36Nwb [13:01] Germanaz0: its genarally not in the system tray if the dev isnt recignised or loaded [13:01] koshari, but I can listen music [13:01] hydester: it encrypts $HOME [13:02] I've got sound, but not the icon :X [13:02] fourcolors: tried right click and selecting open with? [13:02] Germanaz0 oh... not using a difernt icon is it? [13:02] ActionParsnip I tried usb-creator in the past and it erased the whole disk, I have other things on it so I stick to unetbootin [13:02] anyone else knows how to use ibus? [13:02] dreyk, this may be useful: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1260793 [13:02] nope, I only see the ethernet icon [13:02] and the Xchat :> [13:02] nothing more [13:02] * C_REATiVE is now away, auto-away after 20 minutes (log\on pager\on) [13:02] C_REATiVE, disable that [13:02] * C_REATiVE is away, auto-away after 20 minutes (9s ago) [13:03] ok thanks [13:03] moetunes: it turns red and tells me gedit has not been able to detect the character encoding. [13:03] Kartagis: ok it shows in logs but not in fdisk hmm , what type of file system is on it? [13:03] fourcolors: ya, try vim [13:03] geekphreak: reiserfs [13:03] hi [13:03] om26er : yes i'm seeing now, thanks for that!! so many libraries, installing now.......... [13:04] psycho_oreos i manages to reroute port 80 to 22 on my server, but it doesnt open ssh [13:04] forceflow: where did you get the file? is it utf8? [13:04] nc can connect to port but it doesnt show the ssh it only idles [13:04] fourcolors: there is some kind of a problem with the encoding... [13:04] abhilash, :) [13:04] fourcolors: did you get the file? is it utf8? [13:04] Kartagis: try running this >> sudo fdisk -l /dev/sdb [13:04] MrGoodkat, afaik nc is a listening client no? should probably try something like telnet [13:04] sorry forceflow wrong nick [13:04] MrGoodkat: do you actually have ssh installed on the server? [13:05] yes [13:05] i can connect to it via port 22 [13:05] MrGoodkat: and you are trying to ssh from the same computer, or another machine? [13:05] another machine [13:05] Kartagis: anything? [13:05] geekphreak: nothing [13:05] MrGoodkat: btw, why port 80 for SSH? [13:05] I didn't get the file. It's not that. I don't know why it's not opening my files [13:05] because in the office i can only connect to web [13:05] Hi. I've upgraded to 10.04, and getting photos from my digital camera (which just worked on 9.10) no longer does. The camera recognises that it's plugged in, but there's no response from my computer. Any ideas? [13:05] MrGoodkat: and, do you want only port 80 and not 22? [13:05] Maybe they are currupt. Ill check [13:05] and i want to tunnel the connection through ssh [13:06] i want either 22 or 80 [13:06] somebody here who was aspire 4810tzg with ubuntu 10.04 [13:06] Kartagis: how old is the drive? , did you try plugging it inot differnt usb slots? [13:06] fourcolors: try something plain text like vim or nano [13:06] fourcolors: it is likely an encoding issue [13:06] is there any way to display the output text of a script directly on the Gnome panel ? [13:06] dabaR: plaintext couldn't open it either [13:06] geekphreak: the drive is like 2-3 years old [13:06] fourcolors: what'd you get? [13:06] dabaR: i mean vim [13:07] I have a problem conneting to MNS in empathy [13:07] MrGoodkat: did you do anything with the config file for the ssh server [13:07] can so. help me? [13:07] ewvdriijst: MSN? [13:07] Strernd, please describe the problem in a few words someone might know the solution [13:07] no dabaR nothing [13:07] MrGoodkat: that sounds like the logical place for the change [13:07] only redirected the port with iptables [13:07] LjL Exactly what i was looking for, thanks dude:) [13:07] Hi everyone, can anyone tell me what are the possible drawbacks in Ubuntu 10.04 64bit? Are all apps like firefox, flash, java, gstreamer codecs have 64bit versions at this moment? [13:07] MrGoodkat: Server: listen on port 22 and port 80 [13:07] geekphreak: what does ath5k phy0: unsupported jumbo mean? it was in messages file too [13:07] indeed, Galerien [13:07] hi I have issues with kerberos under 10.04 it was working fine on 9.10 but not on 10.04 I did a upgrade from previous version not reinstall... [13:07] ewvdriijst: press F4 [13:07] MrGoodkat: I don't like that solution myself. [13:07] Hi, i have problem after upgrading new ubuntu, grub2 has error error: the symbol 'grub_puts_' not found, i know that i need to reinstal grub somehow but i dont know how (I have only instalation disk from 9.04) can someone help me? [13:08] i need kerberos 4 10.04 looks like it only supports krb5 [13:08] Kartagis: any important data on that drive [13:08] !details | en0x [13:08] en0x: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." [13:08] Sdonatas, non maybe [13:08] MrGoodkat: I would probably tell the server to listen to ports 22 and 80 instead, like I said earlier :) [13:08] is there any way to display the output text of a script directly on the Gnome panel ? [13:08] ewvdriijst: add ==> protocole MSN ==> login and password [13:08] well when i do kinit i get kinit: KDC has no support for encryption type while getting initial credentials [13:08] !64bit [13:08] AMD64 and EMT64 are fully supported architectures on Ubuntu. See http://tinyurl.com/3jkole and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amd64 for more information.

I want people that say my name to be highlighted in blue or something [13:09] after installing the propierty driver on my notebook ive got black screen. ive got the xorg.conf file open, can anybody tell me what to change? My laptop uses two graphic cards Radeon Mobility HD4330 and a low energy one... [13:09] you have to put your complete login, not just "example" but "example@msn.uk" something... [13:09] methril_work, release information? [13:09] Crap. OKay when my battery died before, I was at the screen AFTER the upgrade updates my SOURCES and is asking me if I want to continue and I had not hit YES yet. Now when I go to upgrade it only gives me an option to do a "partial update because a previous update failed" how do I reset this? [13:09] dabaR can i change it in the config to "Port 22 80" ? [13:09] i`m blocked through a proxy and i could not access all the urls [13:09] Galerien: though it tels me : Disconnected [13:09] om26er: does it mean i can install ubuntu restricted extras the same way as in 32bit distro? [13:09] geekphreak: no, I'd copied fstab to somewhere else [13:09] Galerien: while it worked a while ago [13:09] where the update-manager checks if a release upgrade is available [13:09] fourcolors, you could report a wishlist bug for that :) [13:09] MrGoodkat: probably. using openssh-server? [13:09] Kartagis: ok webroot folder umm, so its important, , it sure sounds like a setting issue, can you access it via live CD? [13:09] ewvdriijst: have you check "enable" [13:10] dabaR i guess so, standard ubuntu server [13:10] synaptic package manager hangs, during the installation of acroread from the partner repository.... [13:10] om26er: how do I do that? [13:10] Sdonatas, yes I think [13:10] mariya: use vince :d [13:10] fourcolors, you have a launchpad ID? [13:10] geekphreak: let me see that [13:10] evince* [13:11] MrGoodkat: the file is /etc/ssh/sshd_config You could google to see whether there is an actual tutorial [13:11] om26er: no [13:11] Galerien: if it is disable it is offline, when enabled it tells: Disconnected - Network problem' [13:11] I have problem after upgrading new ubuntu 10.04, grub2 has error error: the symbol 'grub_puts_' not found, i know that i need to reinstal grub somehow but i dont know how (I have only instalation disk from 9.04) can someone help me?

[13:11] i want to get 5.1 sound working but im unabnle to [13:12] it 's frozen! [13:12] does grub rely on anything to set a background splash? Because I installed Ubuntu through an alternate iso just installing a base system that was just the terminal and then installed LXDE and when I try to set a grub splash background it doesn't show up [13:12] then i found something about going that way in 9.10 .. ubt doesnt seem to exist in lucid? [13:12] brb [13:12] dabaR, indeed [13:12] Galerien: need to install that... [13:12] * dabaR nods [13:12] ok thanks om26er [13:12] fourcolors, you could try xchat [13:12] mariya: yes i mean evince , sorry typo error ;) [13:13] fourcolors: or irssi on the command line [13:13] na [13:13] :-P [13:13] ewvdriijst: just to see if it's empathy or something else [13:13] am having problem with remastersys [13:13] om26er: he seems to program ruby...

[13:32] krambiorix, but works if you disable your wireless ? [13:32] where has it gone ? [13:32] psantoni_: ok sec [13:32] Hmm Lucid doesn't seem to load a grub splash image, anyone else having problems with this? [13:32] mrsun: well, leave it for tomorrow. Or just be patient and ask every half hour here, or 10 minutes [13:32] ??? [13:32] how to revert to older packages that I want back, after using newer versions from a ppa? [13:32] gorogawa, to see all the boot messages [13:32] aparently its very simple using that but without it its hell on earth like everything else with linux [13:32] I'm finding it impossible to find the sha256 sum for 10.04 on th eubuntu website. What link do I click on? [13:32] mrsun: and compose a good question, while you are waiting. Detail specs, steps tried, link to tutorial you are following, etc. [13:32] Look like i not going to get help in here. [13:32] hipitihop : well the problem is when that my wired always works but when i put my wired interface up, i don't have internet connection anymore via my wireless [13:32] perlmonkey i got it 1 sec [13:32] Question, why is it when I want to build the virtualbox module by executing the code sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup it stops telling that something is wrong?

They can be put back in after the upgrade [13:34] pookito, wat's the message ? init doesn't work in 10.04 like other ubuntu distro (to be simple) ... [13:34] mrsun: I can think of a way... where was it before? [13:34] If Ubuntu fails to detect any hardware (do be patient as this isn’t always instant) then you can manually run the hardware configuration tool yourself from the System > Preferences menu. [13:34] hipitihop : can you help me to figure out what the problem is? [13:34] jmfthevci, ok thanks, but it says removing the packages not disabling packages :) [13:34] system->preferences [13:34] how to revert to older packages that I want back, after using newer versions from a ppa? [13:34] krambiorix, sounds like a routing issue but I don't know enough how to tweak those... do you actually need to use both simultaneously ? [13:34] Does anybody know of a fix for this: "Dist-upgrade failed: 'The package 'ubuntu-desktop' is marked for removal but it is in the removal blacklist.' [13:35] psantoni_: although i did check it with a livecd and it said it was clean [13:35] geekphreak: thanks, but surely there are sha256 hashes available also. Since MD5 is compromised I don't like to use it. But I bet I can search for it on the help site. Thanks. [13:35] mrsun, do you mean system > admin ? hardware driver? [13:35] krambiorix, or is one at a time sufficient as long as your internet connect works [13:35] For exemple ubuntu 9.10 : /etc/init.d/apache start, ubuntu 10.04 : apache2 start [13:35] np [13:35] wildbat_10_40, no, aparently this was to configure hardware with [13:35] hipitihop: i need to let them work both, my cisco phone is connected to my laptop [13:35] perlmonkey2: http://releases.ubuntu.com/lucid/SHA256SUMS [13:35] so i could set my sound card to 6 channel insted of 2 [13:35] mrsun, cos i don't see the hardware thing you said in 9.10 [13:35] wildbat_10_40, where the hell has people gotten that from then :/ [13:36] The message says: Makefile:152: *** Error: unable to find the sources of your current Linux kernel. Specify KERN_DIR= and run Make again. Stop. [13:36] It might seem a bit redundant posting a question that I asked in the forums here but I'm kinda desperate to get this fixed. Please take a look http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1466260 [13:36] Aren't there *any* upgrades if you've already been using the Lucid RC? [13:36] geekphreak: weird. I installed it into the laptop and connected my usb hdd, which is also seen as /dev/sdb :S [13:36] and why isnt there a simple way somewhere to configure the channels on the audio when everything else is set up for you in ubuntu? :/ [13:36] jcrawford: Firstly it will look in your sources.list and comment out anything that is not distrbution related. At the end it will suggest a cleanup of the system. You can choose not to clean up and thus not to remove your company specific code. [13:36] where can I download the "Human" theme for Ubuntu Lucid Lynx? [13:36] psantoni_: The message says: Makefile:152: *** Error: unable to find the sources of your current Linux kernel.

(so I can find them next release :) ) [13:36] frxstrem: In the repos, the package is human-theme iirc.

This will be something to correct after the upgrade by re-enabling your company entries in sources.list with appropriate lucid entries [13:38] default-sample-channels = 6 <-- tried setting that also in pulse/daemon.conf [13:38] no change [13:38] Hey everyone [13:38] bayer you can upgrade using the alternate cd [13:38] krambiorix, sounds a little more involved then I can help with sorry. .. I was going to suggest using wicd instead of normal network manager as it makes it easier to manage your connections, and defaults but I don't know enough to help you with your simultaneous problem [13:38] download it and then mount the iso [13:38] works like charm [13:38] Does anyone tried the latest version of ubuntu?

[13:40] krambiorix, how do you know the connection is lost and not just dns or other issues. [13:40] Hi, is there any know problems with the alternative CD upgrade ? [13:40] gorogawa, the system clearly try to chek your disk, this is not a unsolvable problem !!

[14:12] Pici: sorry slipped [14:12] cause its some hacked gargabe [14:12] hi gays [14:12] erm i mean gus [14:12] jcbv: that's not true [14:12] jcbv, that's not true, please keep to support issues as we are trying to help you [14:12] guys [14:12] GhostWolf: ok, you will have to go manual, first command: sudo apt-get install -f [14:12] psantoni, I'm right handed, and it's annoying [14:12] whoops [14:12] hi [14:12] I think therés to many people trying to upgrade so the BW is very slow for the download... [14:12] ok ChogyDan [14:12] psantoni: isn't there many mirrors? [14:12] empathy does not show the msn protocol when adding a new account, only jabber. how can i solve this issue? [14:12] thanks Pici === emanuel is now known as Guest65278 [14:13] i've installed the new ubuntu 10.04 yesterday but after restart my tray icon (network manager) isn't visible [14:13] tarzeau: http://projects.gnome.org/gconf/ [14:13] JoshuaL, check the selector that shows "jabber" (ie. click it) [14:13] sonicrules1234, not in 10.04 right now . right click on that program and find "About" . tell me if name is NetworkManager. [14:13] kromagg: thanks, doesn't help me [14:13] tarzeau: you can use bitorrent to [14:13] too [14:13] * [14:13] jeeves_Moss, thats what I said, it only shows jabber :) [14:13] i've tried to execute nm-applet but it won't work, too because it says that there is already an instance running of nm-applet [14:13] tarzeau: won't that override the default for all your users? [14:13] Galerien: no we're not allowed to, we've got gbit internet, and should not use p2p software [14:13] artistxe, Its not really a program, its just the pull down from the tray [14:13] tarzeau, yes that's right :) [14:13] artistxe, How would I get to NetworkManager? [14:13] JoshuaL, and this is your base install (ie you didn't reinstall it from repos, etc) [14:14] ChogyDan, i did that and it told me i had to run something manually and told me to type sudo dpkg --configure -a which i did [14:14] Galerien: no, i don't think so [14:14] sonicrules: in synaptic [14:14] tarzeau: Are they all going to be using the new theme? I'm not sure if the reversed controls affects other themes. Alternatively, since gconf is actually a bunch a files in $HOME you could just go through and modify the appropriate files after upgrade. [14:14] GhostWolf: do that [14:14] i need to copy about 250G of data between two drives, any option better than rsync? [14:14] jeeves_Moss, its the base install indeed [14:14] ChogyDan, and it looks like its doing some stuff atm [14:14] tarzeau: is that an ISP restriction ? [14:14] !permissions [14:14] An explanation of what file permissions are and how they can be manipulated can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions [14:14] ChogyDan: then just rerun install -f [14:14] JoshuaL, sorry, no idea. I've got pidgin installed [14:14] Galerien: no, it's the managers of the border firewalls of www.ethz.ch that setup this rule [14:14] Hey, i'm new to this upgrade thing on ubuntu, i'm on karmic and i was wondering after the new upgrade if my setting and files i've edited in time or desktop files etc will be modified... [14:14] still waiting for help on how or if its possible to sync rythmbox to folder on network in ubuntu 10.04 [14:15] jeeves_Moss, thanks anyways :) [14:15] tarzeau: arf, fu!ker :D === zozo is now known as Daijoubu [14:15] Galerien: it's fine for single laptop users, but ethernet gets a problem when overloading, and that happens with skype/p2p software supernodes [14:15] I'm trying to update to lucid, but the downloads have pretty much halted. I have many of the packages installed on my laptop. Is there a way I can set it as a local repository and at least download the packages that my laptop doesn't have? [14:15] Pici: not all, only new users [14:15] ChogyDan, btw just a question, by doing an upgrade like this like from update manager i don't lose files right? [14:15] Pixar, it'll prompt you to keep or replace modified configs [14:15] artistxe, Its already installed [14:15] JoshuaL, no worries. I've noticed that Pidgin connects a LOT faster and more realiably to MSN if that's any help [14:15] GhostWolf: correct [14:15] Pici: since upgrading gnome/kde configuration files fails every time. people will get rid of their old ones, and start with a fresh one [14:15] jeeves_Moss, thanks, im using pidgin since ages but i wanted to try out empathy :) [14:15] tarzeau: I guess, at work we just have a maximum upload + download of 120 Kbytes... so [14:15] Pici: and they'll be upset when they're not where they usually are [14:15] sonicrules1234, you should be able to see wireless then [14:16] guess it wants me to stay with pidgin :P [14:16] Galerien: we don't unlimited both ways, just no p2p [14:16] ChogyDan, ok, now its back at my username@compname prompt. [14:16] wtf when i did the upgrade it said i could only do a partial upgrade. I let it do that since the only other option was cancel and it seems i am still on 9.10 lol [14:16] SMiTTY, thanks a lot :D what about my documents i have all over the place, should i do a backup? or it doesn't act like a clean install [14:16] JoshuaL, I thought the same thing. Then a few weeks of messeges not going through, conneciono issues, etc, and I went "flying" back. LOL [14:16] Anyone know what program association I set for .apt files? within firefox [14:16] tarzeau: You could test putting replacement gconf files for that key /etc/skel/ [14:16] jeeves_Moss, lol [14:16] Alienarch, apturl [14:16] tarzeau: just saying that if you want to avoid overload, limit "load", not protocols :D [14:16] Hi. I have a big problem of "unexpected inconsistency" when I boot since i upgraded to Lucid. When I upgraded, I had an error with python-scipy, but it seems that the upgrade has finished because i had a message to say that it was finish with some errors, and after the window closed. When I restart, I have this problem of UNEXPECTED INCONSISTENCY. What can i do? [14:16] Pici: if only i knew how. gconf is to me like regedit is to others. [14:17] Wowo.. so many questions :) [14:17] Pixar, you're safe. It'll keep your docs and stuff in place [14:17] JoshuaL, I think our "pet barn pidgin" was mocking me, hence the change [14:17] apturl ok... not sure where to find that but will look [14:17] Galerien: for each and every p2p program? that's beyond [14:17] Thank you SMiTTY ! [14:17] ChogyDan, what should i do next? [14:17] tarzeau: no, for each mac address [14:17] GhostWolf: did install -f do anything? [14:17] ChogyDan, i didn't redo that let me try again [14:17] Galerien: i have no idea how [14:17] Galerien: i'm not managing any of these managed routers [14:18] tarzeau: ok, sorry [14:18] and ChogyDan that time its doing things [14:18] Galerien: i'm only automating workstation installations, and fixing software issues on them [14:18] Boy us.archive.ubuntu.com is SLOW :) Must be everyone installing 10.04....apt-get install autofs has been running for like 5 mins.... [14:18] jeeves_Moss, i gonna fill in a bug report, thanks for helping :) [14:18] everyone upgraded? [14:18] JoshuaL, np [14:18] when someone has a minute could I get some help plz [14:19] ChogyDan, ok now its back to the prompt again [14:19] tarzeau: Take a look at the %gconf.xml file in .gconf/apps/metacity/general [14:19] I just installed Lucid on my wife's netbook (not the remix, we do not want the remix). I am getting the error: Not starting X display manager (xdm); it is not the default display manager. How do I fix this? [14:19] j-jtof-b, just ask your question. I'm sure someone will help if they know [14:19] !ask | j-jtof-b [14:19] j-jtof-b: 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. :-) [14:19] GhostWolf: well, you can try rebooting, and see if that was enough [14:19] Hi all [14:19] This might be a quesitons for ubuntu-release-party, but here goes... I've got /boot on it's own partition. When trying to upgrade from hardy to lucid yesterday, I got a warning that my partition was full. How much space will I need to do the upgrade? [14:19] detrix, do you have loggin screen ? [14:19] Pici: i'd prefer downloading congig files and putting them somewhere [14:19] isn't there a way to change the system id of a partition without deleting it and re-adding? [14:19] detrix: try startx [14:19] after upgrading this morning to 10.04 windows no longer cover whole screen but leave a band at the top [14:20] Pici: if you help me, i'll document it at wiki.debian.org/Enterprise for all future people with the same issue [14:20] detrix, sorry [14:20] can't get rythmbox to sync in ubuntu 10.04 to network drive [14:20] pity ubuntu removed their corporate wiki entry [14:20] how do i create a system backup to disk .. [14:20] I have donwloaded Kubuntu remix from various sources, but it always freezing in Virtualbox. Testing the ISO says there are more than 20 errors. Could it be that the official ISO is wrong? [14:20] I'm having an issue with my ICH7 chipset in Lucid. I cannot seem to slide volume... it's either on or off. Zero or Max that is. Not sure where to change the behaviour for that [14:20] ok ChogyDan [14:21] j-jtof-b, y don't you mount it so it is 'localized' [14:21] did that [14:21] psantoni: Galerien: it is stuck at that message and does not go any further, and I cant seem to boot in to recovery mode. [14:21] it has ben mounted [14:21] it doesn [14:22] psantoni: Galerien: I am not at a prompt to type anything. [14:22] it is mounted everytime i boot up also [14:22] j-jtof-b, do you have access to it or you mounted for root only ? [14:23] ChogyDan, looked like it worked, it said something there was a problem mounting \dev but now it asked for my password that i have set and im back to my desktop now [14:23] I share a folder through samba but people can't connet to my it, because they don't know which username to enter. I set to allow guests. That didn't help. [14:23] hey folks, anyone have issues w/ skype on 10.04? [14:23] isn't there a way to change the system id of a partition without deleting it and re-adding? [14:23] I have donwloaded Kubuntu remix from various sources, but it always freezing in Virtualbox. Testing the ISO says there are more than 20 errors. Could it be that the official ISO is wrong? [14:23] Kartagis: Yes. You can with fdisk at least (cli app) [14:23] GhostWolf: great! if you want to check it further, you can just make sure the ubuntu-desktop and linux-generic packages are installed other than that, you should be fairly good [14:24] oh no I have user access at boot up and its bookmarked and on my desktop [14:24] hola a todos alguien me puede ayudar por favor [14:24] !es | kano [14:24] kano: En la mayoría de canales de Ubuntu se habla sólo en inglés.

[14:27] ChogyDan, i got a message saying cannot upgrade, an upgrade from lucid to karmic is not supported with this tool [14:27] obscurant1st, thanks.. but i figured it might be a ubuntu problem as a more general as opposed to a KDE issue [14:27] Kriss3d, ok. :) [14:28] Hi all! I've noticed that I don't get new email notifications from the Chat/Mail/Facebook applet if I close Evolution. How can I get around this?

However, since the early days of using the boot screen, the one that says "Loading ..." does not appear. Another thing is the update-manager that is also not loaded, nor does it show that symbol next to the clock that says there are updates to be downloaded ... does anyone know what to do or why that is so? I thought this would be beta for the problem, and when the fi [14:28] nal version came out ... problems disappear, but it did not happen ...

[14:34] oops my mistake solved it [14:34] switchgirl: it's in your home .firefox or .mozilla/firefox something [14:35] Mcl0vin: that's correct. if you want both to have that ability, the best option is to create a group that both users belong to. "sudo addgroup groupname", then "sudo adduser username groupname" [14:35] switchgirl: just remove all files. bookmarks will be lost [14:35] since i did the partial upgrade I have tried to hit the upgrade button in the update manager but it keeps locking up the app and going dark grey [14:35] LjL can i add Mcl0vin to the group testuser, sure i can, but will it ..hmmm [14:35] GhostWolf: OHH, I think you have to run sudo apt-get update first [14:35] ok smbfs seems to be missing ganna try that route thanks for the help laterz [14:35] ok ChogyDan [14:35] zzypot, boot in recovery mode see what error msg you got [14:35] people should start suing linux for its bs i mean if u do an upgrade from its site it should work not make your pc in operable [14:35] any1 else th help with my grub problem_ [14:35] my pc is inopearable [14:35] jcbv: your problem, isn't it?

[14:40] robyromania: yes, but i updated [14:40] tarzeau: hmm [14:40] digitzer: tried with chromium-browser yet? [14:40] it keeps failing alot [14:40] jrib: well the ubuntu channel irc faq, yes [14:40] Galerien: and now? [14:41] I have donwloaded Kubuntu remix from various sources, but it always freezing in Virtualbox. Testing the ISO says there are more than 20 errors. Could it be that the official ISO is wrong? [14:41] jrib: #debian used to have have one, which was very helpful. i believe it would do #ubuntu good too [14:41] miles_, please dont pm, keep support questions in #ubuntu for the benefit of everyone [14:41] tarzeau: I'd consider that document the faq for this channel [14:41] jrib: yes, that's what i meant. answering common questions [14:41] tarzeau: any idea? [14:41] SnowmanX11: check the .iso with md5sum https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM [14:41] jrib: something like: http://wiki.debian.org/DebianIRC [14:41] zzypot, you need to get the error msg out be4 anyone here can help ~ [14:41] Rdogg112: no, what says mount? what filesystem is it? [14:41] mahara [14:42] Where do I set the default X display manager? [14:42] Rdogg112: did you look into /media ? [14:42] since kubuntu installation freezes up always for me do you think the ubuntu installation will too? [14:42] it may have just been the version 10.04 tho [14:42] Rdogg112: sometimes usb connectors are flaky, try reconnecting it [14:42] Mahara: I have tested from more sources and it tells that there are more than 20 errors [14:42] tarzeau: Im sorry but i have to use opera or firefox :( (it is personal reason :( ) [14:42] will it restarted fine [14:42] tarzeau: a ls of media returns floppy and floppy0 [14:42] acicula, do you mean i should first create the whole extended partition, then use mkpartfs again with the same starting sector (kinda like rewriting on it)? [14:42] miles_, parted should be able to make extended partitions, shouldnt be needed to do that outside the parted program [14:42] ChogyDan, this is the pastebin when i redid the sudo apt-get upgrade -f, http://pastebin.com/8irTmJnv [14:42] when went into recovery mode it showed a coulple of errors [14:42] digitzer: can you figure where you flashplayer.so is, and run file on it? is it really 64-bit? [14:42] SnowmanX11: how you tested it? Did the checksums you made on the downloaded .iso file match the ones on the official site? [14:43] digitzer: and are you sure you didn't install it as firefox user into your home config directory? [14:43] hi [14:43] miles_, normally you would make an extended partition for a certain size, and then inside that partition you define additional logical partitions [14:43] GhostWolf: try upgrade-manager again [14:43] guys early this morning I did a partial upgrade because that is all that the update manager would let me do, however now when i try sudo apt-get dist-upgrade (or just upgrade) it does not install ANY packages. It shows that I am still running 9.10 what gives? [14:43] Rdogg112: then it's not mounted i guess [14:43] robyromania: yep, no problem, it was set as tipping and not button, so i guess it kept it [14:43] Rdogg112: mount it manually? [14:43] ChogyDan, i did still same problem [14:43] miles_, if you already have 4 primary partitions you cant make another extended though [14:43] zzypot, copy that down and pastebin it ~ hit pause if it run too fast [14:43] sudo mount -a? [14:43] Mahara: I have donwloaded from the official site: WEB, torrent. Yes, that is the official one. [14:43] tarzeau: what would i use? mount /dev/?whathere? [14:43] if i play music through my laptop in 10.04, it plays both through the internal speakers and headphones when i have headphones plugged in [14:43] Galerien: i made a clean install, and that pen button is not there [14:43] i think anyway, i havent partitioned in ages [14:43] Galerien: that only works for stuff in /etc/fstab [14:43] Rdogg112: what dmesg says? [14:43] robyromania: then i can't help you, sorry :x [14:43] SnowmanX11: You used bit torrent protocol or the mirror(http, ftp) metod? [14:44] Forums and irc are always lots of fun right after a release ;) [14:44] [ 2285.283742] sd 5:0:0:0: [sdc] Assuming drive cache: write through [14:44] Rdogg112: something like mount /dev/sda1 /mnt or [14:44] in the command line after the recoverying it went to fast and booted up again [14:44] I just updated my netbook remix box and now I don't have any menus etc [14:44] Rdogg112: that's the disk, what about partitions? [14:44] acicula, okay. I know how to make the extended partition, but not how to define secondary partitions within. Should I still use the mkpart command within parted again? [14:44] are the older releases of kubuntu still supported? not sure how it works but i want to try kubuntu out and i know the newest version is 10.04 but it does not work for me [14:44] why doesnt ubuntu detect when headphones are plugged in? [14:44] Rdogg112: fdisk -l /dev/sdc says what? [14:44] Cojage: because that's not possible [14:44] Cojage: unless it's usb [14:44] oh [14:44] * Mcl0vin damn how do you guys keep up with all this...its going fast :) [14:44] tarzeau: i dont know what are you talking about. i just use synaptic to install flashplugin-nonfree . I did not do anything else. If you can make me give you a input from terminal, i can. or please explain me easly ... (i am not a good linux user) [14:44] MrKlown: You mean does Ubuntu provide updates for the older versions? [14:44] ChogyDan, is there anything i can do to reverse the upgrade and some of the files that got installed? [14:44] but uh windows mutes the internal speakers, but ubuntu doesnt [14:44] !supported [14:44] yes dabar [14:44] Cojage: ... unless you use usb-headphones [14:45] cannot open /dev/sdc [14:45] zzypot, you have boot cd? [14:45] digitzer: dpkg -L flashplugin-nonfree |grep so [14:45] does anyone know how to bring that pen button in nautilus back? the one where you swich the location name from text to buttons. [14:45] and partitions say its sdc and sdc1 [14:45] GhostWolf: hmmm, well, its too bad your computer crashed. You care getting other errors, but o well. sudo dpkg --remove --force-all swell-foop [14:45] I need to set xdm as the default display manager. how do I do this? [14:45] right, but windows 7 mutes my speakers though, then how can i mute only the internal speakers [14:45] miles_, afaik you can define those from within parted === Mex_ is now known as egelmex [14:45] and not the headphones [14:45] Cojage: i see... using any mixer software? [14:45] no [14:45] MrKlown: LTS releases are your best bet, longer support cycle. Most ppl here will help with just about any ubox though :) [14:45] SnowmanX11: You have to check it with md5sum -> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM so that the .iso file matches the sum from https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuHashes otherwise the downloaded file is corrupted; but using bit torrent should give you a reliable .iso because the protocol uses handshakes [14:45] Cojage: or creating a script and binding it to some hot key? [14:45] LjL-Temp: are you ther e [14:45] acutally i never really used ubuntu before [14:45] tarzeau: I write it on terminal it gives nothing... [14:45] yes i have a boot cd' [14:45] of ubuntu [14:45] guys early this morning I did a partial upgrade because that is all that the update manager would let me do, however now when i try sudo apt-get dist-upgrade (or just upgrade) it does not install ANY packages. It shows that I am still running 9.10 what gives? [14:46] but i have it installed [14:46] !releases | MrKlown [14:46] MrKlown: Ubuntu releases a new version every 6 months. Each version is supported for 18 months to 5 years. More info at http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/releases & http://wiki.ubuntu.com/TimeBasedReleases [14:46] detrix do 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm' and choose from the list [14:46] digitzer: i think it's because of the installer meta package [14:46] ChogyDan, well it didn't crash i hit some buttons and didn't think it was going to reboot my comp [14:46] greezmunkey, right but the 10.04 lts will NOT install for me, it freezes up nonstop [14:46] tarzeau: so ? [14:46] digitzer: i think it's in /usr/lib/flashplugin-nonfree [14:46] tarzeau: so ? :) [14:46] A little out of date [14:46] digitzer: try copying the plugin to where firefox or opera expects it [14:46] jcrawford: do your sources list lucid or karmic? [14:46] digitzer: so as in shared object (library file) [14:46] MrKlown: and you tried the alternate install CD? [14:46] tarzeau: do you have msn, aim or anything? [14:46] i haven't tried regular ubuntu yet just kubuntu, i'll try the ubuntu now though [14:46] no what exactly is that dabaR? [14:46] tarzeau: ok please wait... [14:46] digitzer: the meta package or the browser/plugin packages don't work properly all times [14:46] digitzer: to install flash for Firefox do the following => http://tinyurl.com/kkaa3e [14:46] miles_, mkpart should also work, provided you have made an extended partition [14:47] zzypot, boot with in and then mount the / and get the dmesg out [14:47] acicula, mkpartfs is a parted command. Opening 'parted /dev/sdb' allows to do that within the parted UI. But it seems mkpart does not allow to create a secondary partition, only the extended one [14:47] Rdogg112: yes i do, for people i know personally. otherwise irc is just fine [14:47] tarzeau: oh, ok [14:47] MrKlown: LTS == long term support, this label also applies to other, older releases. [14:47] Rdogg112: unless you want commercial software, i support in switzerland, in june/july also in germany,denmark,sweden,norway [14:47] tarzeau: i cannot mount sdc or sdc1 :/ [14:47] that's why i'm confused [14:47] zzypot, then paste bin it some one will help ~ but i gtg sleep sorry ^.= [14:47] oh i see it now lol [14:47] Rdogg112: why not? error msg? [14:47] VCoolio: thanks [14:47] miles_, part-type is one of: primary, extended, logical. Extended and logical are only used for msdos and mips disk labels. [14:47] MrKlown: it is a text-based installation. Not live then install. [14:47] tarzeau: mount: can't find /dev/sdc1 in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab [14:47] miles_, from the mkpartfs man page [14:47] any one had any luck updateing the netbook remix? [14:48] if i want to give 2 users in my system, access to a folder, using a new group ..what permissions should be on that group [14:48] ok i think it was the live part that was messing me up, my cusor kept freezing [14:48] Rdogg112: what was the exact command you typed? as root? [14:48] Rdogg112: check System->Administration->Log File Viewer [14:48] tarzeau: i didnt do as root :o [14:48] downloading it now, ty [14:48] Mcl0vin: try this: http://wiki.debian.org/Permissions [14:48] Mahara: ok [14:48] hey guys I forget in gconf where to enable the menu icons anyone? [14:48] it ok [14:48] Rdogg112: try as root [14:48] ChogyDan, this is what it said when i did the last command, http://pastebin.com/wsAEuC3v [14:48] HI [14:48] hey, i've just downloaded ubuntu 10.04 and I am trying to install it on an old windows xp system. When i boot from cd I am brought to a command prompt...does anyone know what i type to get the program to install (i'm new to ubuntu and i'm trying to learn so sorry if this is a dumb question) [14:49] tarzeau: arrgh , still nothing as root [14:49] Does anyone know if it's possible to open a VNC session to a locally running Virtual machine? [14:49] yay succeeded upgrading 2 more machines. one left... [14:49] Rdogg112: error msg? [14:49] GhostWolf: sudo rm /var/lib/dpkg/info/swell-foop.postrm then try the other command again [14:49] Pudgy: with virtualbox? should be possible [14:49] BumpyChef: describe the command prompt, what does it say? [14:49] tarzeau: still the same, cannot find sdc, or sdc1 [14:49] ok ChogyDan [14:49] Rdogg112: can you put your dmesg output somewhere online? [14:50] tarzeau: the entire thing? [14:50] Rdogg112: and are you sure the device has power and is connected? [14:50] Rdogg112: yes [14:50] Rdogg112: first you need to indetify you're external HDD, use sudo fdisk -l ; after that you need to mount it using mount -t fstypehere /dev/sdx /mnt/mountpoint === luis__lopez is now known as luis_lopez [14:50] how can i launch wine with the administrator right?????

[14:50] I just installed ubuntu 10.04 on my laptop and my external screen (lcd) is quite dissorted [14:50] tarzeau: yes im sure,ill post it to pastebin , give me 2 secs [14:50] i thought xchat had also an entry in the me=menu thingy, is this planned for a later release [14:50] Hello, I've updated my server to 10.04 LTS and unfortunately the server doesn't seem to boot properly after the update. I don't have physical access (only a rescue shell at the moment) and I was being told the error on the screen reads "init: plymouth main process (1414) Killed by segv signal". Unfortunately logs show nothing at all, logging doesn't seem to have started at the time the boot process is receiving this error already. Can anybody help me [14:50] ragnar: which resolution? video card? dvi or vga? [14:50] Rdogg112: as tarzeau said copy/paste dmesg to http://paste.ubuntu.com and post the link here [14:50] ok everyone...stop downloading so I can install my stufff lol [14:50] ragnar: is the cable shielded well? resolution as usual? [14:51] tarzeau: yeah , thank you , but i already read that and that is why i am here asking [14:51] Mcl0vin: because you didn't understand it [14:51] Mcl0vin: ok create a group for those two users [14:51] tarzeau: http://pastebin.org/194736 [14:51] ChogyDan, it said can't remove the directory saying no such file or directory [14:51] Mcl0vin: then add them to the group using adduser [14:52] Mcl0vin: then make sure the group-owner of the directory is that new group [14:52] Mcl0vin: that's it, set permissionas as you want for the group rwx or r-x [14:52] hi [14:52] ragnar: Do you have proper drivers installed for your video card? [14:52] tarzeau: ok [14:52] Rdogg112: tried as root: mount /dev/sdc1 /mnt ? [14:53] GhostWolf: try changing postrm to * [14:53] ok ChogyDan [14:53] tarzeau: oh i didnt try /mnt/sdc [14:53] IceBear, are you running ubuntu desktop on that server? [14:53] GhostWolf: also, pastebining the output may give me a better idea [14:53] hello!How can I force a daemon to stop? I've used "update-rc.d -f polkitd remove" and "start-stop-daemon -K -n polkit" and didn't worked! [14:53] tarzeau: , still nothnig with /mnt/ :( [14:53] Rdogg112: As I said use first fdisk -l to identify the drive name corectly [14:53] tarzeau: one last question, what naming convention will you use for the group name in this case [14:54] Rdogg112: you say ls -la /mnt and it's empty? as root? [14:54] vasia: in 10.04? [14:54] ChogyDan, still nothing just saying can't remove it no such directory or file i did the * like this swell-foop.* [14:54] acicula: If I recall correctly it was a simple base system install via FTP at the beginning. [14:54] how can i enable facebook chat in pidgin im [14:54] Mcl0vin: we use names like: wwwastro or astro for webpages of astronomy, and astronomy users [14:54] GhostWolf: pastebin? [14:54] Rdogg112: Then you need to make a directory wherever you want, but it's preferable in /mnt or /media ; thats where the mounted external disk will be [14:54] Rdogg112: use mkdir -p /mnt/external [14:54] tarzeau: vga, all resulutuions, ATI Radeon X1300 512 mb [14:54] : Yes, in 10.04!

[14:55] private_meta: i see a /etc/bash.bashrc :) [14:55] Mahara: its ntfs(was using windows) [14:55] tarzeau: Just whenever it's changed on one or the other [14:55] andrew____: yes [14:55] Dr_Willis: I don't [14:55] abhijain, see http://www.facebook.com/sitetour/chat.php and click on pidgin for instructions [14:55] andrew____: just make sure when you sync, the app is not running [14:55] tarzeau: http://pastebin.org/194748 the output of the ls [14:55] ChogyDan, http://pastebin.com/eUHfzD7Z [14:55] vasia: sudo service blah stop. If it does not do it, sudo invoke-rc.d blah stop. the stuff you did was more so it does not start at boot. [14:55] Dr_Willis: ok, now I do [14:55] tarzeau: You mean on the receiving end? [14:55] Rdogg112: empty. indeed [14:55] andrew____: both ends, ideally [14:55] GhostWolf: ah, it should be /lib/ not /lib./ [14:56] Both ends is not likely [14:56] what would be an good internation hoster for websites? domain etc...

[14:56] & : It worked out of the box in 9.10 [14:56] IceBear, you'll have to check the logs why it wont continue to boot [14:56] andrew____: you'll end up with config files not working: mozilla and openoffice people are like that [14:56] andrew____: so is cups, and window maker [14:56] thanks ChogyDan didn't see that [14:56] What's with the thing. My client does not support it! :-( [14:56] I just installed Lucid on my wife's Netbook (Acer AspireOne).

[14:57] andrew____: rsync -av is what i use (won't remove removed files though!) [14:57] acicula: As I already mentioned, there are no logs. All logs where last edited shortly before the restart after the update. Logging doesn't seem to have started where the system is crashin already. [14:57] Rdogg112: ouch :) [14:57] Can someone take a look at http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/yZfwemeL and see if this is a normal disk layout for Ubuntu amd64 10.04 and possibly explain why I am getting the "Partition 1 does not end on cylinder boundary." messages from fdisk?

[14:57] TheFaioli, sudo apt-get install indicator-sound logout and login again enjoy [14:57] Dr_Willis: I mean specifically that syntax, some program uses that syntax, and irssi does not highlight [14:57] Rdogg112: hpfs/ntfs :) that's fun [14:57] tarzeau: Ta ta [14:57] TheFaioli: the volume icon can likely be added by right clicking on the panel, then add to panel [14:57] Mahara: 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon Mobility X1400 [14:57] ChogyDan, http://pastebin.com/MELkG1Px [14:57] tarzeau: is it a bad thing ? [14:57] TheFaioli, try decreasing the resolution [14:57] Rdogg112: ok, use : sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/sdc1 /mnt/external ; if it says something that filesystem incompatible replace ntfs with ntfs-3g [14:58] Rdogg112: no, but often causes troubles [14:58] #LoliconsAnonimos@irc.rizon.net [14:58] dabaR: depends on the irc client. Theres probery scripts or settings to enable it. I perfer WeeChat to irssi these days [14:58] Rdogg112: like you have it now. but try what Mahara says [14:58] Dr_Willis: command line? [14:58] dabaR: yes [14:58] Guess I could have googled [14:58] :-P [14:58] Hello. I am experiencing big troubles with upgrading to Ubuntu 10.04 LTS from RC. When I run sudo apt-get upgrade // dist-upgrade // update, I have no updgrade available :( [14:58] GhostWolf: now try the upgrade command again [14:58] having a problem with nvidia drivers/laptop screen detection in lucid... let me know if anyone can help with this! [14:58] Mahara: the screen is disorted from the moment ubuntu starts. i.e. the bootup logo is also disorted [14:58] hi how would I upgrade a server from 8.04 to 9.1 on the command line? [14:58] dabaR: i even got mine where i get gnome-notificatioon bubbles when someone chats at me [14:59] Rdogg112: for more info see http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/mountwindows [14:59] ha! [14:59] ChogyDan, the sudo apt-get upgrade -f? [14:59] Llywelyn, what version of Ubuntu are you using "lsb_release -a" if you're not sure. [14:59] That's neat. [14:59] the hdd light flashed, but still dont see it in computer, and if i run command again says drive busy [14:59] how come i download the aternate cd, mount it and run the upgrade and its still downloading packages from the net [14:59] GhostWolf: sure then do dist-upgrade -f [14:59] does anyone use nis/nfs/autofs home users? i noticed i have to adapt /etc/nsswitch.conf for it to keep working [14:59] ok ChogyDan [14:59] Dr_Willis: but you seem to use irc more than me. Noone ever pm's me unless I am having a convo with them. But it will still be useful [14:59] and autofs4 got replaced by autofs5 [14:59] chrometiger: run on the cd ./cdromupgrade [15:00] anyone having brighness problems on Lucid and EEPC ? [15:00] dabaR: it shows when people in the chananel say my nick [15:00] It's what the cool kids use! [15:00] Rdogg112: type ALT+F2 and then nautilus /mnt/external [15:00] TheFaioli, did you try that? [15:00] Hi! Can I install Ubuntu Miusic Store plugin on my Rhythmbox in Ubuntu 9.10? [15:00] ah never mind i see it in /mnt/external, now how would i make it display on the Computer window or in desktop when it gets mounted?

I copy the libflashplayer.so file to /home/mozilla/plug-in . flash works fine now with firefox.

I can't seem to get any display after the upgrade and 185 was working under karmic :( [15:01] iceroot: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading bottom of page [15:01] ZykoticK9: I run Ubuntu 10.04 LTS [15:01] micah, check at gdm your session might have been gnome [15:01] ??

[15:01] om26er: ok [15:01] So I guess i'm already up to date :D [15:01] micah, :/ [15:01] Mahara: thanks [15:01] chrometiger: hm, strange line [15:01] !final > Llywelyn [15:01] Llywelyn, please see my private message [15:01] zzypot: do you get asked at boot which to boot into? [15:01] chrometiger: i dunno, maybe try it the way I suggested. I got that from some help doc awhile ago. Maybe it needs to be run in that directory [15:01] i have no idea how to logout [15:01] while trying to install from cd i am taken to a command prompt that say "welcome to Ubuntu! to run a command as administrator blah blah" Ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ what command should i type to tell the program to finish it's intall?

[15:02] hello, can i use a ubuntu desktop cd to boot and clone a hard drive? im trying all the tools on ultimatebootcd but none of them is working. i got 2 sata drives, [15:02] ZykoticK9 : didn't get what you mean [15:02] acicula: I don't have physical access to the screen and that was the only message that was given to me. [15:02] automount: nis files is what i needed in nsswitch.conf [15:02] om26er: haha, i'm going to a virutal terminal and restarting gdm [15:02] hey guys this morning i ran a partial upgrade on Ubuntu, currently now it tells me there is an update for 10.04 but the update manager will not allow me to upgrade. When I click upgrade the UI gets greyed out. Also when I do sudo apt-get dist-upgrade it does not [15:02] datacrusher, clonezilla works for that [15:02] i just figured the Alt cd would have everthing on it, downloading is going at like 1k/sec and im on cable [15:02] IceBear, bit hard to deduce from there what is wrong :/ [15:02] the software updates came down but I am still using 9.10 [15:02] Llywelyn, if it says Lucid - then you are at final :) [15:02] jcrawford: try to continue from a terminal? [15:02] mornin! [15:03] tarzeau, how would i do that? [15:03] jcrawford: you open a terminal window [15:03] jcrawford: or ctrl-alt-f1 [15:03] acicula: Yes, as you can imagine I'm rather clueless on how to solve this problem without any logs or physical access to the screen. [15:03] well, no... i didn't see that under lucid, but maybe i just missed it... problem is... my display was all corrupted and after trying to run update-alternatives, i just have a black screen now :( any way to run that Hardware Drivers thingy from a ssh logi [15:03] i do dist-upgrade and 0 packages are installed [15:03] chrometiger: I told the upgrade not to use the net, and then later finished the upgrade with a local mirror [15:03] jcrawford: then login and get root [15:03] ChogyDan, i think this is working, it hasn't stopped nor said any error messages [15:03] I am using the hardware drivers method to enable my nvidia drivers and it says it has been "activated", but OpenGL is in fact disabled. [15:03] ah [15:03] enan, is there a way to install it on the desktop boot environment [15:03] ZykoticK9: cool. But it seems strange because I had no update since the LTS release, and before...! [15:03] om26er: yeah it was the gnome session [15:03] Does anybody know of a fix for this: "Dist-upgrade failed: 'The package 'ubuntu-desktop' is marked for removal but it is in the removal blacklist.' [15:03] i am trying to run 10.04 on my Dell Inspiron 700m, 1.8 Mhz Intel M processor, 1.5 MB RAM, intel video. 9.10 works fine on my laptop, but 10.04 when starting will go to a black screen after the ubuntu logo. i tried esc, and it does not allow me to boot in safe mode. Any thoughts? [15:03] ragnar: hmm weird that the bootup logo is disorted, you should try and install the latest ATI catalyst from http://ati.amd.com/support/driver.HTML for you graphics card if its supported [15:03] anyone know the command to run nautilus from terminal? [15:03] IceBear, seems impossible without physical access, anyway i thought plymouth was a gui thing, so it seems odd that aserver gives errors regarding it failing to start [15:04] tachiro: nautilus [15:04] tachiro, nautilus [15:04] tachiro: nautilus . [15:04] tachiro: that would be 'nautilus' [15:04] oh [15:04] really? [15:04] :) [15:04] Not everyone at once, please... [15:04] datacrusher, clonezilla is a live-cd to clone disks similar to "ghost" [15:04] hah! i thought it would be complicated [15:04] gmail using imap or pop ? [15:04] tachiro: try it and see? [15:04] tarzeau, i know how to open a termial, i did sudo apt-get dist-upgrade itdoes nothing [15:04] alguien habla espanol [15:04] tachiro: gksu nautilus, but you have to be in X [15:04] tachiro: troll?

[15:04] ok will try that now [15:04] acicula: As far as I know plymouth is the splash screen during boot. So I tried booting with nosplash (I'm still using legacy grub by the way). That didn't help either, though. [15:04] Dr_Willis: Looks a lot like irssi, but does not have the same commands at all [15:04] has anybody succesfully installed websvn on ubuntu server 9.10 64bit? [15:04] ascheel, 2fast4you :P [15:05] what program can do a 1:1 copy of dl dvd and keep layer break correct? [15:05] hi [15:05] micah, now it works?

[15:06] good morning #ubuntu, I just upgraded to 10.04 and my USB mouse/keyboard is not working (switching to PS/2 works) -- any thoughts? [15:07] ChogyDan: That was my issue EXACTLY.

[15:07] jcrawford, reboot? [15:07] ascheel: yeah, I was lurking yesterday when the bug first got reported :) [15:07] no desktop pic but no icons [15:07] greezmunkey : trying [15:07] IceBear, yeah but why ubuntu-server would use a splashscreen even is beyond me [15:07] jo_: i'd remove your gnome/kde config files [15:07] hipitipop, no luck yet [15:07] ChogyDan: I've seen that exact error on half a dozen issues, but none affecting the package I did (pulseaudio) [15:07] always [15:07] jo_: that's a common problem gnome/kde have after every update [15:08] hi all, i have a ralink 3090 (its a wireless LAN pcie card) i cant seem to get it running on the newest ubuntu [15:08] ok [15:08] acicula: I have no idea.

[15:08] dabaR: What IRC client are you using? [15:08] IceBear, anyway its really hard for anyone to help you without you being able to try commands to do basic troubleshooting, either have a livecd booted with a shell started so you can get access at least or you'll have to go over there to get things fixed [15:08] Is there an official torrent for the ubuntu netbook edition 10.04? I don't see it on the Ubuntu homepage [15:08] dabaR: the quickstart/users guide tells you. I cant rember the command off hand. it also has a 'smart ignore' feature that you want to be using. [15:09] FoxWolf, you need the driver [15:09] can anyone help me: i have 2 nics; wireless and wired. When the wired is up, my wireless goes down [15:09] dabaR: and a 'smart part/join/quit' hide feature. [15:09] om26er, where can i get it? [15:09] good afternoon, is there any way how to unlock gnome panel in new ubuntu NBR to allow me to add or remove applets (options like remove from pannel, move or unlock are grayed out) [15:09] i looked on google already om26er [15:09] * dabaR is switching to weechat [15:09] link fo problem http://img688.imageshack.us/img688/5852/screenshotrw.png [15:09] when can i update to meerkat? :> [15:09] or better, i can 't surf the net on FF [15:09] acicula: Well, I have access to a rescue shell and can completely chroot into the system with that. So far that didn't really help me, though. [15:09] Maxpayne: Look here: http://linux.dipin.info/2009/06/howto-configure-gmail-in-evolution-in.html [15:09] yo knittl [15:09] jcrawford: if you get stuck, I would just finish the upgrade from the terminal [15:09] that is the problem [15:09] knittl: in half a year [15:09] ChogyDan, this morning I did the upgrade and it only let me do a partial upgrade. Now I rebooted and it says an update is available but it will not do the upgrade [15:09] Hi i´m new to Ubuntu 10.04 LTS, the install worked fine including audio although I had to install Timidity for a windows app that i´m running in wine, which worked although since then the audio doesn´t work at all, could anyone help me please?

[15:10] Pici: thanks, that's the answer i was hoping for :) [15:10] if any one can help me [15:10] jcrawford: are your sources lucid or karmic? [15:10] IceBear, well i'd start in syslog and dmesg to see what went wrong [15:10] yet The About Ubuntu says i am still running 9.10 [15:10] private_meta: only the desktop edition, x86 [15:10] they were karmic i changed them to lucid and app updates came down [15:10] om26er, yea that would be great if you could and pm me [15:10] acicula: Empty, as I said.

My most urgent problem is a flashing error message that says: "Error updating sensor fan1" \n "An error occurred while trying to update the value of the sensor fan1 located at sensor://eeepc-isa-0000/0" [15:18] rodolfo, hmm if that doesnt work you have to dig into X, it probably has a vblank option somewhere, used to be in xorg.conf, but dunno where it is now [15:18] let's try [15:18] haha my upgraded machines don't work properly either [15:18] it's horrible :) [15:18] acicula, alright, thanks for the tip [15:18] hola, quiero recuperar desde un cd live los datos de mi /home cifrado [15:18] Does anyone know how to get usb passthrough of a wifi card to work with virtualbox?

[15:41] sash_mobile, no I thik [15:42] kartook: why not just using the default and put the docs in your home? [15:42] lukus: The problem is Lucid's new feature allowing multiple video drivers installed at the same time.

[15:42] Kills: sorry wrong nick [15:42] It would appear that none of my USB devices are working; however "lsusb" shows the correct devices connected (http://pastebin.com/0EbdCsmY) [15:42] how long can it take to execute kernel header postinst.d? my computer is stuck for like 10 minutes already during lucid upgrade [15:42] ZykoticK9; what?

For more information, please see http://alturl.com/b6ja | To move them back to the right-hand side, see http://alturl.com/x5d6 [15:48] does anyone can help me ? [15:48] ZykoticK9: You lost me.

[15:49] ratcheer, do you want vdpau support? [15:49] moetunes: just found a possible relevant google hit - hooray! [15:49] Mahara: i did it but firefox writes that you have not isntalled adobe flash. [15:49] Dr_Willis_Rummag; it's just that now, changes in ubuntu's architecture seem to have stopped that .. but I might be jumping the gun - i'll do some research [15:49] buzzomatic: great :] [15:49] moetunes: thanks for your help [15:49] ZykoticK9: I'm not even sure what it is. [15:49] thanks all for the advice [15:49] buzzomatic: np [15:50] ratcheer, it's 3d acceleration on nvidia cards for video files [15:50] does anyone have the same problem ? [15:50] Hi. I have some shortcuts in my toolbar on Ubuntu (personal directory, Desktop, network,...). How is it possible to edit them? [15:50] kimimben: are you sure you followed all the steps correctly from that link? I just installed flash that way 5 minutes ago [15:50] yohannbzh: you mean the PLACES menu? [15:50] I have a problem with my parition system : http://paste.ubuntu.com/425272/, I wanted to know if i could put sda3 and the unallocated part inside sda4??????

But you have to either find a ppa or install it manually if it's no longer in the repositories [15:52] Mahara: does package removal, also remove the contents it downloaded? [15:52] ratcheer: i tested rc yesterday, i had serious problem. even desktop menu was crashing [15:52] Have I just found a bug in the installer?

[15:55] Why the hell can't I join #ubuntu+1 ? When I try, I keep ending up in this channel. Can't Xchat-GNOME understand +1 in channel names? [15:55] jrib: thanks :) i thought it would show as release upgrade [15:55] Lademord: hahaha xchat can't do it maybe? [15:55] Lademord: #ubuntu+1 no longer exists as lucid has been released [15:55] Lademord: likely because there is no +1 yet [15:55] Lademord: They closed it, yesterday. [15:55] tarzeau: cool but not my taste. i prefer leopar :-p [15:55] Is there a programme that can be used to easily configure joysticks and racing wheels ideally with a GUI not command line [15:55] Nasten: i also got leopard ones somewhere :) [15:55] somebody can call me (VOIP) on empathy using a SIP account for a connection test? nomne@iptel.org [15:55] tarzeau: I changed /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts file which set hostname correctly but hostname -f will not change regardless of what I do [15:55] jrib, it has? COOL! I completely forgot [15:56] Yay, I'm no longer running alpha!

Do you know if it uses the same repositories as ubuntu? [15:56] are there any screen broadcasting apps for linux like mac has?

[15:57] is it recommended to install every new kernel upgrade that comes out? I can't help but think it could break the system so I'm reluctant [15:57] kimimben: i am [15:57] mohawkboi: is that a usb device or a serial port or game port device? [15:57] ubutom: do you know if flashplugin-installer still uses nspluginwrapper or if it just uses adobe's 64bit version of flash? [15:57] westinghouse: absolutely [15:58] jrib, unsure, let me see [15:58] USB Device [15:58] My Empathy doesn't show profile pictures, and can't receive files. I'm a bit bummed out by it [15:58] mohawkboi: I have never had to configure wheels and sticks in Linux. I plug in the USB device and it is ready to use. Each application or game, however, may have its own configuration menu and you should check that specifically for the ones that interest you. [15:58] tarzeau and irv_: http://nxadm.wordpress.com/2009/04/26/install-64-bit-adobe-flash-player-on-ubuntu-904/ that is not working for me ? any ideas ?

[15:58] mastaofdisasta: i had problems with some, but you should if you're vulnerable to the security fixes of the updates [15:58] Freeaqingme: if it does, then we can probably just use the minimal iso and then grab the right package for netbook remix [15:58] 9.10 -> 10.05 upgrade -- none of my USB devices are working (mouse, keyboard, etc); however "lsusb" shows the correct devices connected (http://pastebin.com/0EbdCsmY). Any thoughts? [15:58] kimimben: nope. i use chromium-browser [15:58] tarzeau: did that later [15:58] jrlooks like it? http://releases.ubuntu.com/releases/10.04/ [15:58] tarzeau: Based on the thread it seems as if that was the reason for delaying it yesterday, so I think it's fixed [15:58] no glue [15:59] hello everyone [15:59] tarzeau: will re-do [15:59] hello, just installed lucid from live cd, it created an empty grub ( no choices just prompt, no images in /boot/) [15:59] please help to install ATI propriate drivers [15:59] I have an older ati based laptop that seemed to install well but, now it seems that it is running hotter than it was under karmic.

I'm using slackware [16:08] bazhang: i wanna have the page number in the openoffice except page 1!!!! [16:08] Freeaqingme: looks like the package is just "ubuntu-netbook-remix". So if you install minimal ubuntu and then install that, you should be good to go. Make sense? [16:08] alexandru, unetbootin runs on slackware too im sure [16:08] Strife89|PalmTX: It depends on the software and your system components and configuration.

I never had an issue like this with this machine with Karmic or previous releases [16:10] GhostWolf: yes, archwild (now gone) made the statement that all his usb devices were not working a few minutes ago. I'm not familiar with the issue, but I suggest you both look for an existing bug with possible workarounds at bugs.ubuntu.com while waiting for more help here [16:10] geekphreak in karmic it worked fine [16:10] chris___: Nouveau driver?

I don't have that [16:10] well you know how you have the gnome notify area (envelope icon) on the top panel. it has chat (which opens empathy), mail (evolution), and broadcast (gwibber). well i wanna replace Empathy with Pidgin but Pidgin makes it's OWN entry in that area. I want it so if i click Chat, it will run pidgin. like it did previously with Empathy :| [16:10] Can't see the "Me" menu.. can anybody else see? [16:10] is it possible to tell update-manager to use a CD as the source for the upgrade to 10.04? [16:10] Anyone knows where to get pop up blocker for 10.4 [16:10] alexandru, either grab the slackware package that has it, or install it from source/ [16:11] Maxpayne: addblock plus for firefox? [16:11] alexandru: usb-creator is in ubuntu repositories. You can install that on slack if you want. There's also unetbootin. See which one is easier to install on slack [16:11] jrib, ok thanks didn't know if anyone else had a problem [16:11] j800r, i would like that as well [16:11] zetheroo: it's intel.. they dont seem too "agree" with cononical's release cycle.. your still running off of karmic drivers, and the new kernal is having problems, your best bet is too wait it out [16:11] Spasysheep: Yes, if you use the alternate CD image. [16:11] GhostWolf: bug tracker is best way to check that :) [16:11] jibadeeha, so it's not possible? [16:11] ok i'll try unetbootin [16:11] j800r, this move from notification area seems to be in a half state [16:11] j800r: if you uninstall empathy, it will remove the chat entry from the indicator, and only pidgin will be there (well with evolution and gwibber) [16:11] does 10.04 repos have PHP 5.3 yet? [16:11] j800r, i can't find a way [16:11] j800r I agree... it's not possible but should be [16:11] overmind : will check it out.thanks [16:11] jcrawford: yes [16:11] What's not possible? [16:11] very nice thanks [16:12] jcrawford, Version: 5.3.2-1ubuntu4 [16:12] jcrawford: you can check at packages.ubuntu.com [16:12] ratcheer: why, what does the alternate cd image do? [16:12] ah nice to know thanks jrib [16:12] steelbox: I have been using 185 with no problems and see no reason not to. [16:12] jrib, didnt' know if it was a bug or just me.. i have two comps running and one monitor so im using a device to hook the monitor. mouse and kb to both comps [16:12] Can't see the "Me" menu.. how do i enable that? [16:12] !alternate [16:12] The Alternate CD is a classic text-mode install CD. It supports a wider range of hardware than the !LiveCD, and can also be used as an upgrade CD. Look for the link on the Ubuntu download page - See also !minimal [16:12] anyone else trying to upgrade and getting a error dl'n some packages due to not being able to connect to a IPv6 host ? [16:12] trism, nope. the chat entry is still there. just doesn't do anything [16:12] I have a realtek HDA sound controller that i know each port is capable of being reprogramed to be input/output and cloned outputs.. in windows.. how do i do this in linux? [16:12] and pidgin makes it's own entry and doesn't fit with the default theme :| [16:12] j800r: it won't be removed until you log out/back in [16:12] Alternate CD also includes LVM [16:12] Spasysheep: It is the one that allows you to upgrade from CD, which is what you asked. [16:12] * geekphreak updates real slow here [16:12] the whole move of icons from notification area to indicator applet seems to be in a complete mess at the moment with 10.04 [16:12] benkaven: specifying apps for notification area.. pidgin vs empathy, thunderbird vs evolution [16:12] I have a heavily modded panel setup, with no envelope icon - any ideas?

[16:18] Anyone else having problems with no graphics after upgrading to 10.04 ? [16:18] jrib, nah they already know about it [16:18] Anupam: it uses gwibber for the functionality, so you would need that install for it to work (it may autohide the broadcast area now if gwibber isn't installed, I haven't experimented with it) [16:18] Lord-Readman, it wont, but you can look at why it takes longer [16:18] benkevan,: diffrent style?

[16:20] Yud_Zroc: after all, there is no architectural difference, you can have all three environments and more on the same computer [16:20] patman023, fresh install [16:20] Lord-Readman, the fix is in succsesive kernels too afaik [16:20] i cant seem to play wma files in 64-bit songbird, however they play fine in rhytmbox and mplayer and etc. [16:20] hrm- no clue [16:20] jrib, how would i go about searching for the bug report for the problem i have?

Utorrent with Wine [16:47] minimec i tried the 'gnome-shell --replace' cmd before and the terminal got stuck thats why i would like to get it in the list in the login screen [16:47] Chekov: that I don't know :) [16:47] what does ipv6 mean?

[16:47] jrib: well, is that a standard feature of firefox (to underline the letters)? [16:47] I am running into an issue where I am unable to connect to us.archive.whatever when attempting to install restricted drivers. I have no problem downloading the .deb directly from the URL, but when I try to run it it says "Recommended to install from the software channel"... Any reason why it would fail to download via the HardwareDrivers app but would work just fine (immediately) from a browser? [16:47] jrib: i tried pressing every key on my keyboard and it does not come out of hibernation [16:48] Chekov: red squigleies? [16:48] dreyk, open about:config, search for ipv6, disable it [16:48] Hello, how can I hide the keyboard layout from the panel? [16:48] bgunter: it's actually in my ~/.gtkrc-2.0.mine but I include that file from ~/.gtkrc-2.0. Just 644 permissions on it [16:48] how to manage upstart services in kubuntu??

Is it normal for the screen to stay black for another 20secs after having booted for ~15secs? [16:48] will this one work with ubuntu > http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.25291 < ?????? [16:48] zipper: do you have enough swap? [16:48] jrib: i just offed the switch [16:48] Sp00F: No, the best one is rtorrent. [16:48] where in ubuntu can i change preffered programms? [16:48] Most of people told me that it's the faster [16:48] Sp00F: The best torrent client is the one YOU like best. [16:48] jrib: what do u mean?

[16:49] lindsaymobil22: no, I don't think so. Backup and reinstall [16:49] Sp00F, rtorrent is better than utorrent in wine...it's very efficient but if you are doing it for one torrent then not worth the hassle [16:49] transmission crashs to often.... [16:49] Kangarooo: gnome-control-center [16:49] i'll try rtorrent [16:49] gartral: firefox underlines all "key access"-keys in the main menu [16:49] thanks for your advises [16:49] jrib: how??
