| compuslaptop | hi | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| GleasonGrails | 10.04 Rocks btw you guys did a great job | 00:00 |
| lfaraone | psidrum: that is very much not supported, I assure you. | 00:00 |
| GleasonGrails | still wish it was easier to set M2_HOME though | 00:00 |
| kmdm | lfaraone: darolu: de.archive... (german colocated server)... do-release-upgrade doesn't work but do-release-upgrade -d does... wonder if someone forgot to throw a switch ;) | 00:00 |
| Ganymede | anyone know what is the default timer frequency in 10.04? (i'm not running it currently) maybe try grep -i ^CONFIG_HZ= /boot/config-$(uname -r) | 00:00 |
| compuslaptop | i have installed my ubuntu alternate 10.04, but my xserver only works in failsafe mode, what can i d | 00:00 |
| compuslaptop | ? | 00:00 |
| smileychris | i'd be using 10.04 now if gparted wasn't crashing (so i can resize some partitions) | 00:00 |
| scunizi | psidrum: not necessary.. when it's ready you can go direct from 804 to 10.04 | 00:00 |
| erisco | Loshki, I am not confused as how to supply the dang arguments... I tried mount -o loop -o norock myiso.iso but then it says myiso.iso is not in fstab or mstab... which makes no relevant sense to me | 00:01 |
| Loshki | Ganymede: on my 10.04 quad core system it returns CONFIG_HZ=250 | 00:01 |
| Longhorn|XP | Kubuntu 10.04 is a big improvement over 9.10. i'm happy :) | 00:01 |
| compuslaptop | anyone can help me? | 00:01 |
| Ganymede | Loshki, and that's a desktop install? | 00:01 |
| antonio_ | how can I rip a dvd to a video to upload to youtube? I have someones mma fight they want on youtube | 00:01 |
| jgcampbell300 | ok my grub is not loading ... i installed 9.10 then updated all packages then upgraded to 10.04 now after post i get black screen with blinking curser ... just stays there now | 00:01 |
| scunizi | Longhorn|XP: that's good to hear.. I thought 9.10 was pretty good. | 00:01 |
| Loshki | Ganymede: yes, it is a desktop from-scratch install. | 00:01 |
| Ganymede | Loshki, thanks for the information | 00:02 |
| darolu | antonio_: there are apps like "AcidRip" that may help you; search for dvd rip in the software centre | 00:02 |
| Longhorn|XP | scunizi, 9.10 wasn't bad, but i had some issues with it, which are fixed in 10.04. | 00:02 |
| greezmunkey | What's shakin' bacon! :) | 00:02 |
| admiral0_enraged | building elementary :) | 00:02 |
| scunizi | Longhorn|XP: like what? | 00:02 |
| Loshki | erisco: try -o loop,norock but I don't think that will do what you want... | 00:02 |
| wolter | oh jadakren, i just tried and yes--it is a smooth transition | 00:02 |
| Krionic | antonio, may I recommend HandBrake? | 00:02 |
| compuslaptop | i have installed my ubuntu alternate 10.04, but my xserver only works in failsafe mode, what can i do? dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg doesn't exist anymore | 00:02 |
| wolter | fade in/out transition | 00:02 |
| Longhorn|XP | scunizi, the main one that anoyed me was that it would never keep my screen resolution when i restarted. also, KDE feels much faster. | 00:02 |
| Reallycool | is it safe to uninstall and reinstall usplash-theme-ubuntu? | 00:02 |
| lfaraone | Reallycool: Yes. | 00:02 |
| erisco | Loshki, I get the same output... if I just do -o loop it mounts fine (minus the file/directory name problems) | 00:03 |
| aSSogueroZen_SX | 10.04 is a good upgrade? not buggy? | 00:03 |
| scunizi | Longhorn|XP: I never had the resolution problem.. speed was great on 9.10 until this last kernel upgrade then it just tanked | 00:03 |
| Reallycool | lfaraone: are usplash themes even needed to start up or are they purely aesthetic" | 00:03 |
| Loshki | erisco: sorry, you've exhausted my expertise... | 00:03 |
| AbuMaia | depends on what you think "buggy" is | 00:03 |
| psidrum | got nvidia graphics problems with 10 on amd64, | 00:03 |
| erisco | Loshki, actually, it is not mounting fine, I forgot to specify the mount location | 00:03 |
| jadakren | aSSogueroZen_SX, early adopters always suffer. | 00:03 |
| lfaraone | Reallycool: the latter. in fact, you can add "nospash" to the boot string and it'll be omitted. | 00:03 |
| darolu | aSSogueroZen_SX: I haven't found a single problem with 10.04 so far, I made a clean install though | 00:04 |
| Krionic | Question: since upgrading to Lucid (10.04), lshw no longer shows my wireless network card. Any ideas to troubleshoot? | 00:04 |
| Longhorn|XP | scunizi, haha. KDE was never that fast for me, but with the 4.4 update, it has improved a lot. and i don't know what the issue was with the screen resolution. but it's fixed. | 00:04 |
| Loshki | Ganymede: actually, I just remembered I installed it by copying from a vmware install, so I'm not sure it's trustworthy. Ask for other opinions... | 00:04 |
| aSSogueroZen_SX | yea i would do clean install too | 00:04 |
| scunizi | Longhorn|XP: what kind of vid card do you have? | 00:04 |
| aSSogueroZen_SX | seems like a nice release | 00:04 |
| AbuMaia | there is a slight compiz issue, but not much else I've seen | 00:04 |
| bp0 | jadakren, failed... there is no /etc/init.d/samba | 00:04 |
| Longhorn|XP | scunizi, i think its like an Intel GMA 965 or something. i know it's crappy, but it works. | 00:04 |
| Reallycool | lfaraone: thanks! | 00:05 |
| compuslaptop | anyone please help me | 00:05 |
| compuslaptop | i'm stuck | 00:05 |
| darolu | bp0: how did you install samba? | 00:05 |
| aSSogueroZen_SX | darolu window controls in left side is not annoying? (of course this can be changed i know) | 00:05 |
| AbuMaia | compuslaptop: what's the problem? | 00:05 |
| scunizi | Longhorn|XP: ah.. that's why.. 10.04 was suppose to fix some issues with intel cards.. I've always stuck with nvidia.. and typically run the binary blob | 00:05 |
| bp0 | sudo apt-get install samba | 00:05 |
| jadakren | bp0, you need to install it. | 00:05 |
| AbuMaia | aSSogueroZen_SX: you get used to it after a little while | 00:05 |
| bp0 | it is installed | 00:05 |
| Ganymede | Loshki, that probably doesn't make a difference since the kernel is still coming from the same repo as long as it's a 10.04 desktop install and you didn't enable any crazy non-default kernel | 00:05 |
| darolu | aSSogueroZen_SX: I have been using them that way for a long time :p so it was not a change to me | 00:05 |
| aSSogueroZen_SX | lol | 00:06 |
| aSSogueroZen_SX | ok then | 00:06 |
| Krionic | bp0 did you try sudo service smbd start/stop? | 00:06 |
| jadakren | bp0, sudo service samba start | 00:06 |
| compuslaptop | AbuMaia: my laptop only works in graphic failsafe mode, i had to install ubuntu with alternate cd | 00:06 |
| Longhorn|XP | scunizi, ooh. that could be why. yeah the 965 is integrated on my laptop so i can't really do much about it. i might be building a new desktop soon. so hofily that should be good :) | 00:06 |
| Ganymede | Loshki, the reason i ask is because apparently, the 100 HZ on 9.10 caused virtualbox to run terribly slow | 00:06 |
| greezmunkey | On shutdown, specifically when X quits, and the system is back to "native" graphic mode, the status messages that are posted to the screen are garbled (like they don't know where the left edge of the screen is). Can that be corrected? It's not a major concern, but it would be "cleaner". | 00:06 |
| pavel989 | hey guys, on ubuntu server, where do i configure autostart applications | 00:06 |
| jadakren | bp0, (it should be running anyway) | 00:06 |
| soreau | AbuMaia: What compiz issue? | 00:06 |
| Krionic | bp0 samba now runs two mods, nmbd and smbd. | 00:06 |
| scunizi | Krionic: bp0 it's sudo service samba <start> or restart or stop | 00:06 |
| bp0 | samba: unrecognized service | 00:06 |
| compuslaptop | AbuMaia: It used to work with older ubuntu versions | 00:06 |
| Loshki | Ganymede: It's the standard kernel, so that's ok. I *do* find 10.04 a little sluggish compared to 8.04... | 00:06 |
| AbuMaia | soreau: for me, compiz was always disabled upon reboot no matter how it was set before rebooting | 00:07 |
| Krionic | nmbd is the network interface and smbd is the actual server. two daemons now | 00:07 |
| soreau | AbuMaia: ah well, that's a ubuntu problem ;) | 00:07 |
| AbuMaia | soreau: but I got it fixed by setting up a symbolic link | 00:07 |
| michael_ | Hi friends.... | 00:07 |
| Ganymede | Loshki, that sluggishness could come from a number of things, probably not the kernel timer frequency...could be ext4 or various other kernel regressions...according to phoronix.com, ubuntu's performance has been declining with each release | 00:07 |
| soreau | AbuMaia: Why did you have to use a symlink? | 00:07 |
| penguin | i just installed lucid on a computer. Shortly after loading the login page, there is a kernel panic every time. Any thoughts on this? | 00:07 |
| SamWeasley | Hello! | 00:07 |
| compuslaptop | AbuMaia: do you have any idea? :-S | 00:07 |
| AbuMaia | compuslaptop: sorry, but I'm not experienced enough to know what to do about that | 00:08 |
| SteveHill | jadakren: The third-level thingie is an artifact of System > Preferences > Keyboard > Layouts > Layout Options > Third Level Choosers having been set to Alt_R with a check-box. Still not sure what it does, but I believe that it is used to make language-specific characters. Again, thanks for the suggestion, jadakren. I wouln't have found this otherwise!! | 00:08 |
| Krionic | Question: since upgrading to Lucid (10.04), lshw no longer shows my wireless network card. Any ideas to troubleshoot? | 00:08 |
| soreau | ! hi | SamWeasley | 00:08 |
| ubottu | SamWeasley: 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! | 00:08 |
| compuslaptop | ok | 00:08 |
| scunizi | penguin: is this a sli motherboard? | 00:08 |
| soreau | Krionic: Does lspci show it? | 00:08 |
| quizme | how do you make a torrent file using command line | 00:08 |
| penguin | i have no idea scunizi | 00:08 |
| AbuMaia | soreau: found that workaround via googling the problem | 00:08 |
| compuslaptop | please, someone can help my with my xserver?? i'm stuck in my laptop | 00:08 |
| penguin | how can i tell | 00:08 |
| pavel989 | quizme, u use a torrenting app to do that | 00:08 |
| SamWeasley | I'm trying to compile a software (FLTK2) but I need a specfic header file? How could I know which .deb provides it? | 00:08 |
| pavel989 | quizme, rtorrent is ccommand line based | 00:08 |
| Krionic | soreau lspci shows my wired integrated card, but i don't see my netgear wireless pci card (on my desktop comp) | 00:08 |
| scunizi | penguin: try adding pci=nomsi on the kernel boot line in grub.. works for me.. might for you too. | 00:09 |
| penguin | scunizi, it has an ati rage graphics card | 00:09 |
| chiz | compuslaptop: can you give some more info on what your problem is? | 00:09 |
| trism | SamWeasley: you can search from files in the repository with apt-file | 00:09 |
| scunizi | penguin: ah.. that might not be compatible. | 00:09 |
| Krionic | soreau: worked fine in Hardy just a few days ago. | 00:09 |
| penguin | oldish | 00:09 |
| soreau | Krionic: If lspci doesn't show it, that means it's not physically connected correctly or it's turned off in the bios somehow | 00:09 |
| michael_ | My Story: Installed 10.4 on my old desktop that crapped the bed with winxp, so I figured i'd turn it into a multi-use ubuntu box. I can't seem to get the wireless adaptor working, and I cant even seem to connect the box direct to my router or internet jack through ethernet - ANY SUGGESTIONS WELCOME :) Thank you. | 00:09 |
| maco | SamWeasley: or go to packages.ubuntu.com | 00:09 |
| Loshki | Ganymede: yes, I'd say I've observed that decline in performance. I'm surprised I haven't seen more complaining about it on this channel... | 00:09 |
| penguin | scunizi, the previous ubuntu works fine, and so does the livecd | 00:09 |
| penguin | which rly bothers me | 00:09 |
| beegee | how can i see a channel list in irssi? | 00:09 |
| penguin | if the livecd works, the install should | 00:09 |
| compuslaptop | chiz: my laptop only works in graphic failsafe mode, i can't start xserver normally | 00:09 |
| bp0 | scunizi, Krionic, jadakren, ... sudo service samba start -> samba: unrecognized service | 00:09 |
| maco | beegee: /msg alis help | 00:09 |
| AbuMaia | soreau: I'll see if I can find it again | 00:09 |
| maco | beegee: alis is a channel-search bot for freenode | 00:10 |
| scunizi | penguin: then it wouldn't be the pci line.. it's gotta be somethign else | 00:10 |
| soreau | beegee: try #irssi | 00:10 |
| greezmunkey | michael_: what have you done so far to figure it out? | 00:10 |
| beegee | ok | 00:10 |
| scunizi | bp0: try sudo apt-get install samba .. adn see what happens | 00:10 |
| Krionic | bp0: if you're running the latest build, it is sudo service smbd start/stop/restart | 00:10 |
| chiz | compuslaptop: can you pastebin your /var/log/Xorg.0.log? | 00:10 |
| bp0 | samba is already the newest version. | 00:10 |
| maco | beegee: freenode has enough channels that the usual "/list" is a bit unusable (too much to read, too much data to transfer) | 00:11 |
| scunizi | Krionic: they switched from samba to smbd in 10.04? | 00:11 |
| bp0 | Krionic, ok restarted | 00:11 |
| Narya | why do most people prefer Firefox to Chrome? isnt chrome faster? | 00:11 |
| Longhorn|XP | i use Chromium =P | 00:11 |
| Ganymede | Loshki, i personally haven't noticed and i probably barely care about like 10 or 20% differences, but in 9.10, virtualbox is nearly unuseable on a 9.10 host and sometimes brings the system to its knees until VBox is killed | 00:11 |
| Krionic | scunizi yup. got me yesterday when i couldn't get it to work. did a little reading on the samba wiki. changed to two daemons. nmdb handles the network request, smdb handles the local shares | 00:11 |
| penguin | Narya, chrome is unstable compared to firefox | 00:12 |
| harle | evening | 00:12 |
| pavel989 | Narya, its bc ff looks more featured. its got more UI | 00:12 |
| penguin | and has bad ad blocking | 00:12 |
| jezeus | the browser really doesn't affect Internet speed | 00:12 |
| gh0zt | cool | 00:12 |
| Loshki | michael_: for an older desktop, I'd have gone with 8.04.... | 00:12 |
| penguin | jezeus, but it affects the rendering speed | 00:12 |
| scunizi | Krionic: that's like the 3rd change for samba.. use to be /etc/init.d/smb restart then service samba restart and now smbd restart.. geez.. it's tough to keep up sometimes.. | 00:12 |
| Narya | ^^ | 00:12 |
| pavel989 | penguin, eh its getting there with extensions | 00:12 |
| compuslaptop | chiz: god!, it's blank, there's nothing, is this emptiness due failsafe mode? | 00:12 |
| Krionic | bp0 might be a good idea to restart nmdb as well | 00:12 |
| erisco | Loshki, is it likely then that the long filename information is permanently lost? | 00:12 |
| penguin | pavel989, the ad blocking merely hides the ads instead of blocking them | 00:12 |
| Narya | ah, so chrome is buggy on linux? | 00:12 |
| tsdgeos | hi, my nm-applet doesn't want to start anymore after updating to 10.04, anybody having the same problem? any idea how to fix it? | 00:12 |
| a0lex | hi somebody else problems with skype video on ubuntu 10.04 ? | 00:12 |
| bp0 | ok, trying to get to printer from the windows machine and i must log in, but my login fails | 00:13 |
| penguin | Narya, a bit. I uses it, but it crashes often, although i often have many tabs open | 00:13 |
| Krionic | bp0, scunizi: according to samba wiki, always start nmdb first, then start smdb | 00:13 |
| Loshki | Ganymede: I ran vmware in 8.04, 9.10 and 10.04. It's a little more sluggish with each release but still very usable. I've never run virtualbox... | 00:13 |
| chiz | compuslaptop: I don't know why its blank. it might be due to failsafe mode but i doubt it. | 00:13 |
| Narya | hmm, well Ill switch back to firefox on ubuntu then, I don't like crashy programs | 00:13 |
| michael_ | Loshki: It's not THAT old - and I kind of wanted a few of the computers I have on the same OS - to keep things consistent. | 00:13 |
| scunizi | Krionic: makes sense sort of. | 00:13 |
| Narya | if I wanted that, I'd use windows :) | 00:13 |
| StryKaizer | I just installe virtualbox for xp (need photoshop) | 00:13 |
| compuslaptop | chiz: any other idea :-S | 00:13 |
| compuslaptop | ? | 00:13 |
| chiz | compuslaptop: what graphics hardware do you have? | 00:13 |
| === magic_ninja420 is now known as magic_ninja | ||
| Narya | StryKaizer: any reason you couldnt use GIMP? | 00:14 |
| tolecnal | hmmmm, this is the third time since the release of Lucid that the software RAID's "fail" (read: the Supermicro controller) fails with ATA and NCQ, and my mouse keeps of falling out. Even though I love a lot of the stuff done in Lucid, these are scary things for me. I think I might downgrade :( | 00:14 |
| Ganymede | Loshki, yeah...apparently VMware workstation isn't free or something? and VMware server is ill-suited to a desktop guest? i don't know....i'm kept away from vmware because of its serial key stuff | 00:14 |
| Loshki | erisco: that would be my worry, but clearly the installer is expecting long names. Is it possible that whoever made the copy messed up and burnt without rockridge extensions? | 00:14 |
| compuslaptop | chiz: i think it's an intel card, my laptop is an acer | 00:14 |
| compuslaptop | chiz: i think is an integrated one | 00:14 |
| michael_ | Is there a specific way to reply to someone on IRC? | 00:14 |

| MadWombat | Is there any way to send desktop notification messages from command line? | 00:15 |
| Ganymede | !tab | 00:15 |
| ubottu | You can use your <tab> key for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. | 00:15 |
| dominicdinada | Damn it is taking gparted forever to write the filetables :( | 00:15 |
| Loshki | Ganymede: Agreed. Vmware workstation isn't free, making virtualbox the first choice for most people... | 00:15 |
| Narya | StryKaizer: you know there is a gimp version that looks very similar to photoshop? one sec ill link you | 00:15 |
| Ganymede | michael_, see ubottu's message about tab completion above | 00:15 |

| Loshki | michael_: Understood. 10.04 is a little raw still, is all... | 00:16 |
| scunizi | StryKaizer: do you need the 16bit compatibility photoshop gives you or just some tools that gimp doesn't have or are hidden? | 00:16 |

| Ganymede | MadWombat, it's free to download and use...but you still have to register with VMware to get your serial key and its performance doesn't match VBox, right? (although 9.10 is an exception because VBox doesn't play well with the 100 Hz kernel) | 00:20 |

| VeasMKII_ | brainproxy: you mean the top panel or the system tray widget? | 00:22 |
| brainproxy | system tray widget | 00:22 |
| Ganymede | Loshki, well vmware server customers aren't paying. vmware workstation is probably faster than vmware server gsx (but hey...what do i know...i'm not a vmware guy except for ESX) | 00:22 |
| brainproxy | it's dead, no network connection indicator | 00:22 |
| C-S-B | Narya, out of intrigue, whats the flash prob? | 00:22 |
| xcerca | i haven't personally noticed a performance differance between 32 and 64 bit ubuntu, but i spend more time looking for/installing packages on 64 bit , which makes me think that i should use 32 bit for compatibility and ease of use, any suggestions? i want to do a new install of one of the other | 00:22 |
| Ganymede | Loshki, or is vmware workstation and vmware server pretty much the same performance? | 00:22 |

| Narya | C-S-B: getting flash to work on 64 bit can sometimes be...hell on earth :) | 00:22 |
| jbuncher_ | Loshki, does your plymouth boot splash work? Mine doesn't | 00:23 |
| VeasMKII_ | brainproxy: are you sure it's still around? maybe you could try adding another notification widget | 00:23 |
| xcerca | Narya , yea that's juts like i was saying | 00:23 |
| brainproxy | VeasMKII_: for example, QSynergy says it can't find it | 00:23 |
| chiz | compuslaptop: what i've seen so far it might be easier to do something else | 00:23 |

| Loshki | jbuncher_: is a splash screen so important? | 00:25 |
| supermatt1000 | lapion, sudo apt-get remove | 00:26 |
| Ganymede | Loshki, you think KVM outperforms vmware workstation? (i'd actually be willing to use that for desktop virtualization maybe) | 00:26 |
| roknir | AbuMaia: pretty sure the apt repository one, but i don't know how to check that for sure. | 00:26 |
| supermatt1000 | lapion, package manager | 00:26 |
| Theravadan | xcerca, well 64 bit will use more memory(64vs32 bit pointers) but it should speed things up because it uses more registers | 00:26 |
| ary | hello everybody! I want to un-encrypt my home because I made the mistake to check the box encrypt my home during the installation. How can I do that? | 00:26 |

| lapion | try dpkg | 00:26 |
| Loshki | Ganymede: great question. Wish I knew the answer. I'd consider moving if it did... | 00:26 |
| jbuncher_ | Loshki, it's not so much the splash screen itself, as much as the fact that it *should* work, but it's *not*, and I haven't been able to find a solution to it. So, it's more of a puzzle than a real issue. | 00:26 |
| lapion | otherwhise use aptitude reinstall, adn afterwards remove | 00:26 |
| Narya | xcerca: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/64-bit scroll down to Pros and Cons | 00:26 |
| Loshki | jbuncher_: I think it's a miracle it boots.... | 00:27 |
| ary | are there any tidy solution for that? | 00:27 |
| AbuMaia | roknir: it will say "mozilla build of firefox" if you're using the mozilla-build version, if not, it's probably the apt | 00:27 |
| jbuncher_ | Loshki, I think we should hold it to *somewhat* higher standards than that :) | 00:27 |

| armence | Hey all, I am facing the "Remove Obsolete Packages?" section of the upgrade... Let's say I agree to do so... Does that mean those packages have already been upgraded to something more recent or just that they are going to be gone? | 00:40 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | !64bit | RedXIII | 00:40 |
| Flannel | RedXIII: I don't believe there's dual 32/64 DVDs anywhere, no. | 00:40 |
| ubottu | RedXIII: AMD64 and EMT64 are fully supported architectures on Ubuntu. See http://tinyurl.com/3jkole and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amd64 for more information. | 00:40 |
| scunizi | FoxWolf: Bad boy... sometimes you have to search and destroy the files.. other times the program has an uninstall in your home someplace.. | 00:40 |
| mcl0vin | hi folks | 00:40 |
| drclue | Howdy all. One of my machines in upgrading from 9.10 to 10.04 suffered some sort of GRUB problem, anyone know of the issue and perchance an easy cure? | 00:41 |
| supermatt1000 | forget it ill try to remove adobe-flashplugin later im going fishing so frustrating | 00:41 |
| onetinsoldier | armence: they'll just be gone | 00:41 |
| RedXIII | ;< blows. | 00:41 |
| GhostWolf | hi all, can anyone help me? i downloaded the ubuntu 10.04 LTS and im trying to burn it with nero and when i select the file it says this, The entered block size does not correspond to the image legnth. The block size may be wrong. Do you want to correct the value or ignore the problem?. can anyone help me with this? | 00:41 |
| FoxWolf | scunizi, it was trucrypt D: | 00:41 |
| RedXIII | So the only difference between the DVDs and CDs for 10.04 are the language packs? | 00:41 |
| FoxWolf | i dunno how to use it so i wanna delete it | 00:41 |
| Flannel | armence: "Obsolete" packages are packages that don't have somthing to upgrade to directly. If package A depends on package B, and then changes to depend on package C, B would be obsolete | 00:41 |
| scunizi | !burn | GhostWolf | 00:41 |
| ubottu | GhostWolf: CD/DVD Burning software: K3b (KDE), gnomebaker, brasero, serpentine, graveman, Nautilus-CD-Burner, GToaster, xcdroast (GNOME), wodim (terminal-based). Burning .iso files: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto | 00:41 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | RedXIII: Look on LaunchPad for my project called multibootu. You can put together your won dual boot 32/64bit on one DVD with a bit of editing. | 00:41 |
| armence | Flannel: ok | 00:41 |
| Flannel | RedXIII: DVD includes many more packages in the repositories on the disc, and can be used to upgrade (like the alternate) | 00:42 |
| scunizi | GhostWolf: the last link should give you a link to windows programs for burning | 00:42 |
| GhostWolf | scunizi, im using windows right now.. im having a problem burning the file i never seen this before | 00:42 |
| Guest30439 | I was upgrading to 10.4 and my system crashed in the middle of the upgrade. It no longer boots. How can I get to my data to recover it? or how can I install 10.4 without overwriting it? Can anyone help me out here? | 00:42 |
| Theravadan | with ubuntu-bug you specify the pid, the problem is gnome locks up, should i use the PID of gdm-session-worker, X, gdm-simple-slave? | 00:42 |
| Flannel | Guest30439: How far does it boot? | 00:42 |
| francisco | hi | 00:42 |
| RedXIII | Flannel: weird. It doesn't explain that anywhere | 00:42 |
| RedXIII | I know for the 9.10 install DVD it said that. | 00:42 |
| Flannel | RedXIII: Said what? | 00:42 |
| dennda | Nope, macbook still won't boot ubuntu disc | 00:42 |
| GhostWolf | scunizi, i know how to burn files, this something i never seen before and i've used nero for years and burned a few ubuntu on windows and never had a problem like this | 00:43 |
| baghag92 | im installing xubuntu over xp right now, no problems so far | 00:43 |

| mcl0vin | i need your opinion ... i have a PowerEdge Dell Server running Ubuntu Desktop, and my HP mini notebook runs Ubuntu desktop...sometime i will be off site were i need something from my srvr, but don't want to always ssh , is there is a way like in M$ to map a drive ? | 00:43 |
| scunizi | GhostWolf: maybe you got a bad download.. | 00:43 |
| drclue | Flannel: same issue here with one of my machines. It can't find the drive , but I can boot an old recovery shell | 00:43 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | GhostWolf: having issues with brasero or k3b or something? | 00:43 |
| Flannel | Guest30439: Hmm, well, without knowing more details, I'll hazard a guess that it's probably fixable. | 00:43 |
| RedXIII | Flannel http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/downloadmirrors#dvd <- says thjat. | 00:43 |
| Loshki | GhostWolf: have you checked the md5sum? I'd be concerned you got a corrupted download... | 00:43 |

| rootlinuxusr | my screen is wobbly. | 00:44 |
| Flannel | Guest30439: It sounds like a GRUB issue first (can't find root to boot to), so get to a GRUB prompt (do you get a GRUB menu?) and tweak that until it works | 00:44 |
| roknir | AbuMaia: thanks for the help. i fixed the issue i was having by adding a repository that had fixes to xserver code. i found the info in bug #539772. | 00:44 |

| LinuxGuy2009 | GhostWolf: Did you verify the md5sum of your iso? | 00:45 |

| drclue | Flannel: I agree with you that it is some sort of GRUB issue and have read some posts to that effect. How do I update grub in this situation? Could I use an old 9.10 install CD to get at a grub update? | 00:46 |
| Flannel | rhin0: apache is configured via a number of files in /etc/apache2/ Using the debian structure instead of a monolithic config file | 00:46 |
| rootlinuxusr | well not the windows itself, but everything | 00:46 |
| AbuMaia | rootlinuxusr: constantly, or when you move something? | 00:46 |
| Flannel | Guest30439: You're using LVM? | 00:46 |

| Kurin_ | I have four identical drives which I am wanting to use a raid array for. I don't really care terribly much about space, each drive is 1TB, so pretty huge. Which would give the fastest speed return out of raid1, raid 0+1, or raid 5, or something else? | 00:46 |

| LinuxGuy2009 | GhostWolf: You need to check the md5sum first. Google to find a md5sum checker for windows. You just install it, point to the iso and it will spit out a big number. | 00:47 |
| Ganymede | Kurin_, raid 0 (plain striping) but it will be the least reliable | 00:47 |
| AbuMaia | rootlinuxusr: it might be a hardware issue, but I have no idea, sorry | 00:47 |
| Flannel | rhin0: I believe it runs things from cgi-bin out of the box | 00:48 |
| rhin0 | hey thanks flannel - i am sure it does | 00:48 |
| Kurin_ | Ganymede, I'd rather not lose data ever. Besides 0, which is best? | 00:48 |

| baghag92 | any ideaas? | 00:49 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | nick1: Does the live cd work on it? | 00:50 |
| Flannel | Guest30439: I'd boot to a liveCD, and poke around the LVM to see what's up with that. Make sure it's all there, then you can start to try and fix stuff. | 00:50 |
| nick1 | no | 00:50 |
| amabo | how do i edit the keyboard shortcut for right click (shift-f10)? | 00:50 |
| jbuncher | Loshki, almost worked, I think I don't have the syntax quite right. would you mind pastebin-ing your lines that boot your lucid install? | 00:50 |
| Flannel | Guest30439: http://linuxwave.blogspot.com/2007/11/mounting-lvm-disk-using-ubuntu-livecd.html walks you through the steps for that (from a liveCD) | 00:50 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | nick1: So you havent even installed yet correct? Do you get the boot option to verify the cd? | 00:50 |
| Loshki | mcl0vin: ssh is a good solution to your requirements. Why don't you like it... | 00:50 |
| amabo | also - i changed the keyboard shortcut for the window picker (to ctrl-tab from alt-tab) but ctrl-shift-tab won't work - what gives? | 00:50 |
| scunizi | nick1: LinuxGuy2009 can you ctrl+alt+F2 and get to a terminal screen .. if so type lspci or sudo lshw .. those should give you info on the card | 00:51 |
| mcl0vin | guys places>connect to server...after i connect, were does it get mounted , or how do i know the mount point please | 00:51 |

| jbuncher | Loshki, sure | 00:51 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | scunizi: His ubuntu is not installed so I dont think that would help much. | 00:51 |
| nick1 | well, i had 9.1 installed, then the new live cd wouldnt load, so i updated with the package manager, now it doesnt load and im using the old live cd | 00:51 |
| chiz | ary: they have an irc channel, you might want to ask in there #ecryptfs its on irc.oftc.net | 00:51 |

| baghag92 | when i try to play a movie people, it tells me "Tote was not able to play this disc. Daemon is inhibited" any ideas? | 00:52 |

| ary | chiz, I'll ask there | 00:52 |
| ary | chiz, thanks! | 00:52 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | nick1: Did you md5sum the 10.04 ISO before burning? | 00:52 |
| Loshki | mcl0vin: sure... | 00:52 |
| Kurin_ | Ganymede, only got fakeraid, here. | 00:52 |
| StrangeCharm | mcl0vin, could you elaborate? | 00:53 |
| mcl0vin | StrangeCharm: wait...if i can find the link i used i will pm it for you, but it is somewhere in ubuntu document | 00:53 |
| chiz | ary: I see the utils has a bin for migrating from unencrypted to encrypted but i didn't see anything that would reverse the process | 00:53 |

| Ganymede | Kurin_, you should probably check out the wikipedia page of standard raid levels so you can judge for yourself which one you like best, i gotta go | 00:54 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | Guest30439: Backup, backup, backup | 00:54 |

| jbuncher | Guest30439, though, if you have an external drive, you could make a backup of everything before wiping it out. | 01:02 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | Flannel: Its just not cool when there are 1600 people here and trying to keep things moving along and trolls give us crap when we try and help. Thats bullcrap. | 01:02 |
| maddeth | meowbuntu, I usually go through and make sure everything is unmuted and 100% | 01:02 |
| drclue | Guest30439: It's not that bad a situation, all the data and everything is most certainly still in there, and fixing GRUB is while not something I've done before , I understand it to be a reasonable procedure that just needs to be looked up somewhere | 01:02 |
| Guest30439 | jbuncher: I can't get into the drive the os is mangled | 01:02 |
| * mcl0vin aight am going to bounce ..talk to you folks later | 01:02 | |
| Flannel | LinuxGuy2009: No one's trolling, just take a breath | 01:02 |
| erisco | Loshki, okay thanks for your help! | 01:02 |
| meowbuntu | maddeth, thats a good start thanks | 01:02 |
| Theravadan | the lockup was happening onext4 while copying a 3/4 gb file | 01:03 |
| jbuncher | Guest30439, well, when you boot from the LiveCD to install, before installing you should be able to mount the drive and copy your data off of it. | 01:03 |
| Loshki | meowbuntu: I had good luck with this on 8.04: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/fix-for-all-pulseaudio-related-issues.html | 01:03 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | Flannel: Well I asked for his problem to help him and he got smart for no reason. | 01:03 |
| maddeth | meowbuntu, other than that, I can't really think of anything off the top of my head, are your speakers plugged in and turned on? ;) (jk) | 01:03 |

| onetinsoldier | greezmunkey: roger. that was some pretty weird stuff that came out there, lol | 01:04 |

| meowbuntu | its noice to have some helpful ppl around. who dont get to flustered from over using this chat room. | 01:05 |
| jbuncher | Guest30439, when you boot the Install CD, it should either boot you to the 10.04 desktop directly or give you an option to "Try Ubuntu without changing my system", You want to pick that option. Once everything has loaded, open the "places" menu and click on the drive where you installed Ubuntu (might have to try a few of them to get the right one). Once you find your data in the /home drive of your original ubuntu install, you can co | 01:05 |
| jbuncher | py the data off to an external drive that you plug into your system. | 01:05 |
| Hornet- | does anyone happen to be a raid expert? the upgrade seems to have caused major problems, and my array is badly broken - need a bit of expert help to repair it | 01:06 |
| GhostWolf | LinuxGuy2009, well it seems the md5sum is a linux deal, i've went to two sites told me what to do and it says to do something in cmd prompt and i did it and it doesn't work | 01:06 |
| gomox | Is there a way to get an h264 codec on Lucid? The codec-install program says it can't find any. I know this used to play on 8.04 but maybe I had sourced a 3rd party codec. | 01:06 |
| linxeh | Hornet-: raid, or software raid? | 01:06 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | GhostWolf: No md5sum is not just a linux deal. | 01:06 |
| Hornet- | software raid, Linkadmin | 01:06 |
| Hornet- | linxeh | 01:06 |
| Hornet- | even | 01:06 |
| scunizi | gomox: the medibuntu repo's | 01:06 |
| maddeth | Hornet-, I take it that it is a software raid not a hardware raid | 01:06 |
| drclue | Well, UNLESS someone can point me to a GRUB fixing tutorial, I guess I'll be off to go surf for one | 01:06 |
| Hornet- | indeed | 01:06 |
| Loshki | GhostWolf: http://etree.org/md5com.html | 01:07 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | GhostWolf: There are WIndows apps for checking them too. | 01:07 |
| scunizi | drclue: grub 1 or 2 | 01:07 |
| maddeth | linxeh, you beat me too it, sorry Hornet- | 01:07 |
| GhostWolf | LinuxGuy2009, well i've tried to do what the sites said and it didn't work.. | 01:07 |
| chiz | drclue: what is wrong with your grub? | 01:07 |
| gomox | scunizi: hmm ok i'll google for that, thanks | 01:07 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | GhostWolf: Try a new site. There are tons. | 01:07 |
| Hornet- | basically, during the upgrade my device names changed, and raid broke. I'm unable to get it back together again | 01:07 |
| drclue | I'm not sure at the moment , but it is the one that came with Karmic CD | 01:07 |
| GhostWolf | Loshki, i did what that site said | 01:07 |
| Hornet- | WHY they changed is a mystery | 01:07 |
| scunizi | !medibuntu | gomox | 01:07 |
| ubottu | gomox: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org | 01:07 |

| gomox | scunizi: do you know the name of the package I need? | 01:08 |
| gomox | Or just adding the repos will enable the automatic codec installation program to find it? | 01:08 |
| scunizi | gomox: probably the ubuntu-restricted-drivers | 01:08 |
| chiz | box, i believe if you want to use a graphics driver that is not the default according to X you need to set it in xorg.conf | 01:08 |
| amabo | does anyone know how to configure the right click shortcut? | 01:08 |
| maddeth | Hornet-, ouch, erm... thats poo | 01:08 |

| St0rmcrow | Hi everyone. I have the black/blank screen problem on startup, too. I have raised the resolution to 1600x1200, which is not exactly right, and now I can see a splash screen for a split second before the logon screen. The problem, though, is that it takes an awful long time to get there after GRUB | 01:10 |

| RobOakes | Does anyone know how to change the default start mode for Nautilus? It starts in a super collapsed mode (no toolbars) unless I specify nautilus --browser | 01:10 |

| RobOakes | Yeah. It's just not there. | 01:12 |
| chiz | box: ok, this might just be a matter of changing one for the kernel module options for the radeon driver | 01:12 |
| St0rmcrow | scunizi: Indeed I have. I was given an option of three drivers. 96, 173 and current, and I selected current. | 01:12 |

| RobOakes | Please have a look. | 01:15 |
| jholderman | Can anybody tell me how to completly remove conky, everytime I do a apt-get remove conky and then reinstall the same script comes back | 01:15 |
| scunizi | gomox: I've never had much success with totem.. have you tried vlc? | 01:15 |
| chiz | box: what does 'lsmod | grep drm' give you? | 01:15 |
| Typos_King | gomox: apt-cache search x264 | 01:15 |
| * gomox tries | 01:15 | |
| soreau | St0rmcrow: nouveau is now the default in ubuntu. You will always have to install proprietary drivers since they are never installed by default on ubuntu | 01:15 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | RobOakes: What version of nautilus is that anyways? | 01:15 |
| RobOakes | Just the normal version of nautilus that ships with Ubuntu. | 01:16 |
| RobOakes | To get the full version of Nautilus, I have to use "nautilus --browser" from the command line. | 01:16 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | RobOakes: Look in help menu, about does it say nautilus? | 01:16 |
| Typos_King | jholderman: sudo apt-get purge conky; purge removes config files too | 01:16 |
| box | chiz, http://pastebin.com/ViK3vfkd | 01:16 |
| St0rmcrow | soreau: One more note, after the first install, I was asked if I wanted to install proprietary drivers and I clicked yes. Are nouveau also proprietary? | 01:16 |

| chiz | box: can you pastebin your /var/log/Xorg.0.log? | 01:17 |
| Loshki | AndChat|: clearly it's possible, because the workspace switcher applet does it. But you may have to write a program to do it. I'd start by looking at the code for the applet... | 01:17 |

| netskillsii | Surlent777 - thank you, have you try any? if so, which and what was your experience and your best? I will check synaptic. | 01:30 |
| St0rmcrow | chiz: Sorry to disturb, would you have any tips for an nVidia blank screen boot up problem? | 01:30 |
| AbuMaia | miramardesign: you can get rid of it without losing the sound icon by uninstalling indicator-messages from Synaptic | 01:30 |
| heethuin | so | 01:30 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | !best | 01:30 |
| ubottu | 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. | 01:30 |

| Surlent777 | netskillsii: I tend to use the old "check /tmp for the downloaded video" trick. If you're using Firefox, it might be somewhere in your ~/.mozilla/cache or something like that too. | 01:31 |
| perlsyntax | linuxguy2009,I not sure how to do it | 01:31 |

| meowbuntu | Loshki, its not about that. i have noticed that each version is bigger in size can do more adn supports more moddern computers adn hdwear than 8.04. thus not working as good. also 8.04 is easier with Grub than grub 2 | 01:33 |
| Typos_King | webroasters: on the webdev scenario, I'd say yes, many folks lean towards it | 01:34 |

| Surlent777 | armence: You could attempt to reinstall/set up usplash, I suppose | 01:34 |

| UltraParadigm | Surlent777 it works!! YAY!! I think the new version of Ubuntu doesn't like all the old extentions and support files | 01:36 |
| Surlent777 | armence: or you could try a different plymouth-theme. Check synaptic for a listing. Use the update-alternatives command to choose a new one (there's GUI front-ends also available in Synaptic...just make sure to run "sudo update-initramfs -u" afterwards | 01:36 |

| Surlent777 | conner: try installing ubuntu-restricted-extras first, i.e. open a terminal and type "sudo aptitude install ubuntu-restricted-extras" | 01:44 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | alphabuild: Did you check System->Admin->Hardware drivers first? | 01:44 |

| alphabuild | LinuxGuy2009: yeah. none there fglrx from apt-get fails so i was going to use binary | 01:44 |
| Loshki | meowbuntu: well as I say, I've downgraded selected bits, but I expect 10.04 to steadily improve over the next few months.... | 01:44 |
| Jon_ | so i just burned it to disk, now i'm stuck with the black screen due to lack of ati drivers | 01:44 |
| chiz | St0rmcrow: you could try disabling the splash and quiet mode to debug what's going on, this will give you a more verbose startup | 01:45 |

| sebsebseb | I thought Plymouth would work well, after upgrading Karmic to Lucid, and now I have and well nope. Kubuntu theme loaded all weird looking, which I found interesting so had to re boot the computer quite a few times, to see how it would look the next time, untill I basically got bored of that. Xubuntu theme I only saw once or twice, that seemed to load ok. However default Ubuntu logo theme and the text one, well sometimes they would load up | 01:45 |
| bonez2046 | where could I find linux/windows networking help? | 01:45 |
| chiz | no its in /etc/default/grub | 01:45 |
| sebsebseb | fine, but other times no. Basically on boot up, black screen for a while, then the theme or green flash of light, and the log in basically. Or even worse, some load up messages and ubuntu tty1 asking for the username, and then put that in the password. Then it will go to the log in screen if details are put in there or not. Before on karmic on there, it would say in text about ubuntu shutting down, and now it's like it has kind of swapped | 01:45 |
| sebsebseb | over those kind of messages, to the boot up. | 01:46 |

| lipinski | How does one get from 10.04 beta to LTS? Does simply updating do it? | 01:52 |
| * sebsebseb Is annoyeed that the Ubuntu developers didn't do Plymouth correctly, plus there are some other things in Lucid that I don't particulary like. Also they started annoying me a tiny little bit in 9.04 by default, but then things got worse. I might seriously think about putting another distro on the other computer, and I know which one already :) | 01:52 | |
| Loshki | halvors: mailservers is kind of a specialised field... | 01:52 |
| Astruvis | I have all the things it should require according to that, 1 gb ram 4 CPU 2.40GHz, and that stuff, why wont ubuntu run x.x | 01:52 |
| chiz | St0rmcrow: comment out GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash" and GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=" vga=799" | 01:52 |
| Surlent777 | sebsebseb: If I ever switched it would be to Debian or Arch I think | 01:52 |
| Loshki | lipinski: yes, simply updating the beta should get you up to date with the lts I believe... | 01:52 |
| undecim | lipinski: You have all the same repos installed, so yes, that should do it. | 01:52 |
| St0rmcrow | chiz: OK, done and restarting now | 01:52 |
| sebsebseb | Surlent777: I would put Mandriva on the other computer, if going to do another distro, already running Mandriva One 2010 on here since November, and like it a lot. | 01:53 |
| lipinski | Loshki: undecim: Thanks. | 01:53 |

| Jon_ | what's docky? | 01:54 |
| undecim | Reallycool: Yes, just make sure you choose the correct drive when setting up partitions and use the "Advanced" button on the last step before installing to make sure that you install the bootloader to the proper drive (usually /dev/sdb) | 01:54 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | !docky | 01:54 |

| frankS2 | hello i am running ubuntu hardy, and id like to update to something newer, how can i do that? | 01:55 |
| Surlent777 | sebsebseb: I am most upset by this, as I found out how to change the theme and love the solar look...but it's useless either way if it doesn't boot reliably. By the way, do you know what nosetmode or whatever that is does, exactly? I've seen that floating around in connection with Plymouth | 01:55 |
| chiz | St0rmcrow: if its too late you can press e on your selection in the grub menu and just remove those options there | 01:55 |
| undecim | Reallycool: If you have, for example, two internal drives and are installing to an external drive, the external drive should be /dev/sdc | 01:55 |

| RedXIII | is it "Ambiance"? | 01:58 |
| sebsebseb | LinuxGuy2009: yeah exactly it seems, they keep on messing something up in each release now as of 9.04, it could be a hardware issue, or a end user issue | 01:58 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | RedXIII: radiance and ambiance are the new "light" themes | 01:58 |
| St0rmcrow | chiz: it took 33 seconds after the GRUB screen for any text to appear | 01:58 |
| St0rmcrow | chiz, then the system loaded within 7 seconds | 01:59 |
| sebsebseb | LinuxGuy2009: well 9.04 is a great release, except something I didn't like by default | 01:59 |
| RedXIII | oof | 01:59 |
| RedXIII | both are pretty ugly. | 01:59 |
| Surlent777 | haha | 01:59 |
| CracKWaK1 | well its a problem because the proprietary drivers are user-mode while plymouth requires kernel-mode drivers to look decent | 01:59 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | !themes | RedXIII | 01:59 |

| RedXIII | I like to go with the default everything | 01:59 |
| hiexpo | i never had any problems with 9.10 / what is dif in 10.04 | 01:59 |
| RedXIII | For some reason or another. | 01:59 |
| spvensko | hi, i have a desktop that connects to the internet wirelessly but requires firmware drivers for the wireless card to work correctly, is there a way to use a USB stick to transfer the computer since a wired connection is not available? | 01:59 |
| sebsebseb | Surlent777: clean install 10.04? uh could do, but I was going to have it themed like well older version of Ubuntu | 02:00 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | RedXIII: Dont like it, dont use it, simple enough. | 02:00 |
| sebsebseb | Surlent777: plus I was thinking about removing Ubuntu One and the music store and such | 02:00 |
| Reallycool | undecim: ok, when making a boot USB, is it supposed to take a long time to "create a persistence file"? | 02:00 |

| Therstrium | anyone know how to enable synaptic multitouch in 10.04? | 02:00 |

| Jon_ | anyone that's familiar with installing 10.04 on a 27" iMac with an ATI Radeon HD 4850 please whisper me | 02:00 |
| RedXIII | I'm more of a "complain but no action" kind of guy,. | 02:00 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | Reallycool: might depend on age of device, read/write speeds suported | 02:00 |

| wizkoder | how do I achive it that miro and tomboy get started when I start the computer? | 02:02 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | wizkoder: New kde looks great but yeah i had plasma widgets hopping around on there own and wierd stuff. | 02:02 |
| St0rmcrow | chiz: www.copypaste.at/1143 | 02:02 |
| onetinsoldier | wizkoder: which version of ubuntu? | 02:02 |
| Surlent777 | wizkoder: System > Preferences > Startup applications, iirc | 02:02 |
| Theravadan | hmm i will ravage the windows key by making it do something of my liking. | 02:02 |

| R0b0t1 | YO DAWGS, my upgrade to 10.04 was miserable. Is there anyway to undo it? The upgrading process seemed to have fucked something up, as the mouse and keyboard do no longer work. I'd prefer to not have to reinstall. If reinstalling is my only option, how might I back up as many settings as possible? I was going to copy my /home/ over, should that contain a lot of my settings? | 02:03 |
| === piju is now known as piju[QRX] | ||
| wizkoder | onetinsoldier: 10.04 | 02:03 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | wizkoder: Ill bet Kubuntu 10.04.1 will be nice by then. ;) | 02:03 |
| chiz | St0rmcrow: brb | 02:03 |
| St0rmcrow | chiz: ok | 02:03 |
| sebsebseb | R0b0t1: is your boot up ok? | 02:03 |
| onetinsoldier | wizkoder: roger. | 02:03 |
| R0b0t1 | sebsebseb: Yes. | 02:03 |
| R0b0t1 | sebsebseb: Just no mouse or keyboard. | 02:03 |
| sebsebseb | R0b0t1: mine messed up big time after upgrade | 02:03 |
| R0b0t1 | So, like, I can't logon. | 02:03 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | Same for Ubuntu 10.04.1, it will end up being a workhorse in the end. | 02:03 |
| sebsebseb | R0b0t1: also Surlent777 's | 02:04 |
| Jon_ | anyone that's familiar with installing 10.04 on a 27" iMac with an ATI Radeon HD 4850 please whisper me | 02:04 |
| Reallycool | everyone here: can I now start all of my questions with "YO DAWGS"? | 02:04 |
| kerebrus | wow 10.04 isnt working for you guys? I had zero problems installing it and have no issues since. | 02:04 |
| Jon_ | maybe i should just simplify the question to, ati radeon HD 4850 drivers.... for 10.04? lol | 02:04 |
| sebsebseb | kerebrus: clean install or upgrade? | 02:04 |
| Jon_ | i think the 'iMac' part is freaking everyone out | 02:04 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | Reallycool: sure as long as its a support question. | 02:04 |
| kerebrus | Sebsebseb both | 02:04 |
| Therstrium | how do you enable multitouch touchpad on 10.04? my netbook has a multitouch pad, would like to use it in 10.04 | 02:05 |
| Axident-Desire | q | 02:05 |
| Surlent777 | sebsebseb: If that was a question directed at me, yeah, it boots after a few tries. It's booted now and otherwise running excellently. | 02:05 |
| sebsebseb | Surlent777: sometimes plymouth boots ok yeah, but a lot of the time it messes up, like that for you as well? | 02:05 |
| onetinsoldier | Jon_: hmmm. i have a radeon 4850 hd. i didn't do anyting special. just using the default open source driver that 10.04 installs. | 02:05 |
| earthfamily | I upgraded from Karmic to Lynx. Everything worked fine except youtubes. I read that my older ati 9550 card is not covered under Lynx. Is there any way I can go back to Karmic without reinstalling ? | 02:05 |
| Axident-Desire | 10.4 | 02:05 |
| Surlent777 | sebsebseb: basically yeah, sometimes it works, other times it just hangs and looks pretty | 02:05 |
| sebsebseb | Surlent777: ever get anything about ubuntu tt1 asking for user name and password? | 02:06 |
| onetinsoldier | earthfamily: nope... downgrading is not supported | 02:06 |
| Jon_ | the problem is , onetinsoldier, that once i select 'install from disc' the screen goes black, and doesn't ever come on again, i've force-shutdown the machine three times | 02:06 |
| AbuMaia | I had a few issues doing the Update Manager upgrade to 10.04, but they were all resolved when I did a clean install from disk over top of the upgrade | 02:06 |
| earthfamily | Or does anyone know how I can find and install an open-siurce ati driver ... | 02:06 |
| Loshki | earthfamily: not unless you made a full backup before you upgraded.... | 02:06 |
| jb12 | hey all\ | 02:06 |
| LtHummus | If I installed 10.04 RC and now all my packages are up to date, do I have the full release? | 02:06 |
| undecim | Reallycool: yes, the default installer. | 02:06 |
| Flannel | LtHummus: Yes | 02:06 |
| AfC | What's the command to run to get the GTK front end for dpkg-reconfigure [lucid]? | 02:06 |
| AbuMaia | LtHummus: yup | 02:06 |
| LtHummus | Flannel: AbuMaia: thanks | 02:06 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | LtHummus: yes | 02:06 |
| Surlent777 | sebsebseb: no. Matter of fact, the only terminal output I get PERIOD is if I turn off quiet splash, and all that is is something about turning on the console framebuffer at like 100x77 or something. Sometimes it boots, other times it don't, either way. | 02:06 |
| undecim | Reallycool: or the USB Startup Disk Creator | 02:07 |
| jb12 | iam doing the upgrade throught terminal is that ok..anyone have problem with that | 02:07 |
| onetinsoldier | Jon_: roger. i don't know what the issue would be. perhaps a bios setting? really hate those evil black screens | 02:07 |
| earthfamily | I'm told to use the open-source ati driver , but ive looked around lots and cant find it | 02:07 |
| chiz | St0rmcrow: you should be seeing text right away, within 2 seconds | 02:07 |
| Jon_ | since it's a mac, it doesn't have a bios setting at all | 02:07 |
| Jon_ | another noob question, how do you guys insert your names into posts? | 02:07 |
| St0rmcrow | chiz: I know, but I am not.... | 02:07 |
| Surlent777 | jb12: you have our permission to do so | 02:07 |
| chiz | St0rmcrow: can I see your dmesg | 02:07 |
| Jon_ | i tried clicking them, and it opened a whisper chat | 02:07 |
| jb12 | hahah thx | 02:07 |
| AbuMaia | jb12: it might be better to do a clean install rather than an upgrade, but it's your choice | 02:07 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | Jon_: just copy a name with your mouse and put a : after it | 02:07 |
| jb12 | yah only doing cause i cant intall on cd.. | 02:07 |
| Jon_ | o | 02:08 |
| Jon_ | ty | 02:08 |
| Loshki | jb12: do a full backup first if you can, in case it all goes horribly wrong... | 02:08 |
| LtHummus | I have x11vnc installed and I want to vnc in to a new gdm session instead of on the default (display 0?). How do I do this? | 02:08 |
| Surlent777 | Jon_: Try typing part of a name and hitting tab, it might do that automatically for you | 02:08 |
| jb12 | cd gone bonkers | 02:08 |
| St0rmcrow | chiz: how can i pull that up? | 02:08 |
| jb12 | cd drive | 02:08 |
| AbuMaia | Jon_: or you can type the first few letters then hit tab | 02:08 |
| Jon_ | Surlent777: ah, yes, tab worked, neato | 02:08 |
| wizkoder | what does ubuntu one save for me to the cloud? WOuld you recommend doing that? | 02:08 |
| xfact | Jon_, Or you can press tab after writing half of the user's name, that easier and safe | 02:08 |
| gh0zt | how do i list usb devices? | 02:08 |
| marczuverink | For some reason lucids background on the gdm login screen turned into the orchid wallpaper,how do I get the default back? I tried reinstalling ubuntu-artwork | 02:08 |
| Jon_ | AbuMaia: it makes the response to you, or me, darker, standing out from regular chat | 02:08 |
| sebsebseb | Surlent777: anyway all the plymouth thmes in the Ubuntu repo are ugly really | 02:08 |
| xfact | ohh | 02:08 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | gh0zt: sudo lsusb | 02:08 |
| chiz | St0rmcrow: dmesg > output.file | 02:09 |
| AbuMaia | wizkoder: I'm an old fogey and don't trust sending my info to a computer I don't control | 02:09 |
| Reallycool | undecim: the activity light on the drive went off LONG AGO and it's still writing a persistence file, what's going on? | 02:09 |
| AbuMaia | Jon_: exactly | 02:09 |
| Loshki | AbuMaia: some people would call that being smart... | 02:09 |
| Surlent777 | sebsebseb: I think the solar one is pretty neat, and that Kubuntu's default is gorgeous :) | 02:09 |
| sebsebseb | Surlent777: the kubuntu default kept on loading differnetly each time | 02:09 |
| sebsebseb | Surlent777: solar one is alright yeah, I tried that in a vm before | 02:09 |
| wizkoder | AbuMaia: Heard lately that a guy has been convicted because he had data in google docs. guess the same could happen with canonical :-( | 02:10 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | Reallycool: if your using the ubuntu startup disk creator and it doesnt work then give unetbootin a try. | 02:10 |
| sebsebseb | Surlent777: when 10.04 was in development | 02:10 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | !unetbootin | 02:10 |

| undecim | Maybe the USB drive overheated after writing all those files. | 02:10 |
| Surlent777 | sebsebseb: Due to the way Synaptic was wanting to play, that ended up being my default. It always looked consistant for me, just like the screenshots :( | 02:10 |
| undecim | Reallycool: Maybe the USB drive overheated after writing all those files. | 02:10 |
| gh0zt | thanks linuxguy | 02:10 |
| a-stray-laptop | hullo all, i changed my startup session into xbmc to test, but now i can't get back into gnome D: | 02:10 |
| a-stray-laptop | what do i do | 02:10 |
| Surlent777 | a-stray-laptop: on the main GDM screen simply change it back | 02:10 |
| onetinsoldier | !info unetbootin | 02:10 |
| a-stray-laptop | i dont see the option? | 02:10 |
| ubottu | unetbootin (source: unetbootin): installer of Linux/BSD distributions to a partition or USB drive. In component universe, is optional. Version 377-1 (lucid), package size 225 kB, installed size 664 kB | 02:10 |
| sebsebseb | Surlent777: I know Plymouth can just be removed, but than what would get instead? | 02:11 |
| Surlent777 | a-stray-laptop: it'd be the same option you used to choose xmbc in the first place, I think | 02:11 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | a-stray-laptop: you can change the session on the login screen as always. | 02:11 |
| Surlent777 | sebsebseb: usplash, I guess? | 02:11 |
| sebsebseb | Surlent777: the text log in? username and password? | 02:11 |
| a-stray-laptop | LinuxGuy2009: i don't see that :/ | 02:11 |
| a-stray-laptop | i guess it could be cut off by the overscan | 02:11 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | a-stray-laptop: on 10.04 you need to select a user first before you will see the session list. | 02:11 |
| Reallycool | undecim: I think it wrote it, how do I know? | 02:11 |
| Surlent777 | sebsebseb: plymouth shouldn't have anything to do with GDM, should it? | 02:11 |
| ScoobySnack | lo | 02:11 |
| sebsebseb | Surlent777: inded it shoudn't, but my boot up got like console log in or whatever | 02:11 |
| St0rmcrow | chiz: www.copypaste.at/1144 | 02:11 |
| a-stray-laptop | does it show at the top or bottom? | 02:11 |
| Reallycool | undecim: I pressed cancel and it shows up as boot in gparted... | 02:12 |
| sebsebseb | Surlent777: when messing up sometimes | 02:12 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | a-stray-laptop: bottom | 02:12 |
| Surlent777 | sebsebseb: That's really weird...haven't seen that yet | 02:12 |
| Marupa | Hi everyone, I think I'm in need of either a good howto, or some one on one help. Trying to install 10.04 on raid 0+1, the installer can see the two 0s, but not the 1 that makes it up. Any suggestions? | 02:12 |
| a-stray-laptop | LinuxGuy2009: | 02:12 |
| a-stray-laptop | er | 02:12 |
| === beep___ is now known as valor | ||
| a-stray-laptop | thanks a bunch | 02:12 |
| sebsebseb | Surlent777: the tt1 or whatever it was asking for a user name, and then put that in and it wants password. or if just leave it alone, it will load up the log in screen after a bit. | 02:12 |
| a-stray-laptop | it was cut off by the tv's overscan :( | 02:12 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | Marupa: fakeraid? | 02:12 |

| Surlent777 | sebsebseb: only in virtualbox | 02:13 |
| onetinsoldier | guess only fakeroot is supported when it comes to fake stuff eh? lol | 02:13 |
| Jon_ | could anyone suggest the proper Ubuntu install for powerpc 400Mhz?, i can't seem to get the 10.04 to start up from disk at all | 02:13 |
| Surlent777 | domo: try googling "granola" by miserware | 02:13 |
| sebsebseb | Surlent777: yeah I got that in virtualbox, but sometimes I am getting it on that computer as well | 02:13 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | !ppc | Jon_ | 02:13 |
| ubottu | Jon_: PowerPC. Formerly used by Apple for the Macintosh line of computers. Variants are now used in popular gaming consoles. PPC was a fully supported Ubuntu architecture up to and including edgy. It is now a community port, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PowerPCFAQ | 02:13 |
| sebsebseb | Surlent777: that's virtualbox on this computer | 02:13 |
| Marupa | Blegh. Would it be better to just go the 4x raid1 way? less space, but should work, right? | 02:13 |
| ScoobySnack | !register | 02:13 |

| Surlent777 | sebsebseb: yeah, it uses its own generic video driver. Should be the same on any computer. | 02:14 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | Jon_: Im sure there are more than just ubuntu that you can run on it. | 02:14 |
| Surlent777 | sebsebseb: I think it actually lists it as some Intel card, iirc | 02:14 |
| sebsebseb | Surlent777: even the just text boot up, the one when it can't just do a graphical boot up, even that one, works oddly | 02:14 |
| Jon_ | o | 02:14 |
| Jon_ | i'm linux retarded | 02:14 |
| sebsebseb | Jon_: maybe so, but you can learn | 02:14 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | Cant wait for a newer release of vbox for lucid. | 02:14 |
| sebsebseb | Jon_: what's up? | 02:14 |
| Surlent777 | LinuxGuy2009: same | 02:14 |
| Jon_ | i just want an alternative to mac os, on both my macs, i had been using ubuntu since 8.10, used 9.04, and had hoped to upgraded to 10.04 | 02:15 |
| onetinsoldier | vbox run Win98 ok? | 02:15 |
| Tekno | sure | 02:15 |
| Jon_ | however it seems my older powerpc won't run 10.04 | 02:15 |
| onetinsoldier | cool | 02:15 |
| Hornet- | does anyone happen to be a raid expert? the upgrade seems to have caused major problems, and my array is badly broken - need a bit of expert help to repair it. details at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=9222336 | 02:15 |
| Surlent777 | sebsebseb: Curiously, I think I noticed that certain themes affected my booting...the ones that showed meters seemed to fail less, though the one with the infinity sign went uber-slow the first time | 02:15 |
| sebsebseb | Surlent777: Mandriva's Plymouth is awesome, nice spinning circle with the logo, and then esc for verbose/text mode. Just on this newer monitor I have I get some black on the right hand screen, since plymouth doesn't like certain resolutions. | 02:15 |
| chiz | St0rmcrow: I'm not sure what the delay is. There isn't anything that stands out in dmesg | 02:16 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | Jon_: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ports/daily-live/20100428/ | 02:16 |
| Surlent777 | onetinsoldier: It works, but it's not perfect. You're gonna want to find rain20.zip on the internet and use it, and find Display Doctor to get a decent resolution | 02:16 |
| chopin | is it ridiculous to even attempt to upgrade from 32-bit to 64-bit jaunty or is it relatively simple? | 02:16 |
| St0rmcrow | chiz: could it be a grub issue? | 02:16 |
| Jon_ | ty | 02:16 |
| hiexpo | LinuxGuy2009, - did ya get your image from a torrent? | 02:16 |
| Surlent777 | chopin: It's impossible to upgrade. Gotta do a fresh install afaik | 02:16 |
| chiz | St0rmcrow: the first 22 seconds of your dmesg are very similar to mine | 02:16 |
| onetinsoldier | Surlent777: oh... roger. thanks for the heads up! | 02:16 |
| chopin | awesome :( | 02:16 |
| sebsebseb | Surlent777: so no I am tempted again to maybe put on the other computer, plus I got a nice control centre for setting up things, that's graphical, and nice themes by default, and so on. | 02:16 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | hiexpo: Yes i did. I got ubuntu, kubuntu, xubuntu all from torrents. | 02:16 |
| Sensiva | Hello all, How can I replace the normal Run Application dialog in Gnome with gmrun ? | 02:16 |
| sebsebseb | Surlent777: now not no above | 02:17 |
| chiz | St0rmcrow: it could be grub. I don't know though | 02:17 |
| Surlent777 | onetinsoldier: I did it recently so I could play Lego Island =P | 02:17 |
| hiexpo | LinuxGuy2009, kool | 02:17 |
| St0rmcrow | chiz: I'll see if I can ask those guys | 02:17 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | Legos for the win! | 02:17 |
| jb12 | anyone like 10.04 lts.. | 02:17 |
| chiz | St0rmcrow: right on | 02:17 |
| Surlent777 | sebsebseb: I wish they would have tested this better...this is an LTS =(. I'd be content if we could get some sort of patch or at least a viable workaround | 02:18 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | jb12: Lucid is great give it a try. | 02:18 |
| sebsebseb | Surlent777: agreed it's LTS | 02:18 |
| sebsebseb | Surlent777: and here we are with this rather odd Plymouth issue | 02:18 |
| onetinsoldier | Surlent777: roger. i was kind of thinking of playing a little bit of an old, and would now be considered pretty simplistic, rts game called Dune 2000 by Westwood Studios ;-) | 02:18 |
| R0b0t1 | Yo guys. | 02:18 |
| cheezey | so how do I disable the mod+A shortcut? it's not in the keyboard shortcut menu nor compiz. =\ | 02:18 |
| Loshki | Surlent777: one important way to make 10.04 better is to file bugs for the problems... | 02:18 |
| Surlent777 | onetinsoldier: Retro gamin' ftw | 02:18 |
| St0rmcrow | chiz: cause the point is, the computer is totally silent, prior to any activity | 02:18 |
| onetinsoldier | Surlent777: :) | 02:18 |
| sebsebseb | Surlent777: well personally from what I have seen of Lucid, in virtual machine testing, but also the other computer so far, I find it a joke as LTS. Also what do they offer business users in the desktop version? I mean proper business features, abosutly nothing that's what. I think server version has some features for them, but not done one of those yet. | 02:19 |
| onetinsoldier | wine choked on it | 02:19 |
| Surlent777 | Loshki: I'm trying to find out what exactly the issue is...I hate filing generic HEY GUYS IT'S BORKED reports =( | 02:19 |
| R0b0t1 | Hello. I am going to have to reinstall due to the faulty upgrade process... I wish to retain as many settings as possible. How might I do this? Would backing up my /home/ folder be enough? | 02:19 |
| chiz | St0rmcrow: and its before your kernel is loaded and after you pick from the boot loader | 02:19 |
| Loshki | Surlent777: fair enough... | 02:19 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | sebsebseb: Your always grumble grumble grumble, shame on ubuntu, grumble. hehe | 02:19 |
| St0rmcrow | chiz: yep | 02:19 |
| jb12 | LinuxGuy2009, thx i will just waiting to install | 02:20 |
| tman_ | my monitor's screen habernates when trying to install ubuntu 10.04? | 02:20 |
| tman_ | any suggestions | 02:20 |
| AfC | tman_: just press shift or move the mouse or something? | 02:20 |
| jadakren | R0b0t1, you should put /home on a seperate partition this time around. | 02:20 |
| sebsebseb | Surlent777: Ubuntu used to be rather great, untill 9.04/9.10 ,but then since 9.04 I been giving them chances, hopeing a newer release would be better for me, but then they let me down some how with something. | 02:20 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | tman_: move the mouse or tap a key to wake your screen? | 02:20 |
| tman_ | it habernates it won't come back on | 02:20 |
| tman_ | its like locked down | 02:21 |
| AbuMaia | R0b0t1: I second jadakren's suggestion | 02:21 |
| tman_ | i've never had this problem before | 02:21 |
| R0b0t1 | jadakren: Yeah. I was going to completely redo my partitioning. | 02:21 |
| Surlent777 | sebsebseb: Jaunty was my favorite release, I think, but Karmic was nice to me for the most part. Some minor sound issues here and there, but the affected apps could be run in a tty/framebuffer and worked fine there, so I was cool with it | 02:21 |
| Loshki | sebsebseb: 9.X was disappoint, but in a couple of months, I expect 10.04 to be really stable... | 02:21 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | tman_: Did you do an md5sum or verify disc on boot? | 02:21 |
| St0rmcrow | chiz: well, thanks for looking into it so far | 02:21 |
| chiz | St0rmcrow: no problem | 02:21 |
| R0b0t1 | jadakren: Would most of my settings be in my /home/, though? For firefox, and etc. | 02:21 |
| sebsebseb | Loshki: no can still download 9.04 or 9.10, 9.04 gets untill October with support, 9.10 gets until April next year. | 02:21 |
| jadakren | R0b0t1, yes | 02:22 |
| tman_ | when i click any menu on the disk my screen habernates and locks up | 02:22 |
| sebsebseb | Loshki: oh I read that wrong | 02:22 |
| TomV-415 | I'm thinking about upgrading to 10.04 from 9.10 on my old Dell D800. (Nvidia graphics) anyone done that? I'm curious how easy/hard it would be to 'roll back' to 9.10 if it doesn't work well for me. | 02:22 |
| sebsebseb | Loshki: disapoint not disappeared | 02:22 |
| Surlent777 | R0b0t1: all user settings are stored in /home. Defaults and system-wide settings are stored in other places, such as /etc/ | 02:22 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | tman_: Still have the original ISO? | 02:22 |
| Loshki | sebsebseb: not my best typing day today... | 02:22 |
| jadakren | TomV-415, you can't rollback | 02:22 |
| tman_ | yes | 02:22 |
| TomV-415 | Anyone rolled back to 9.10 after upgrading to 10.04? | 02:22 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | tman_: md5sum image.iso | 02:22 |
| sebsebseb | Surlent777: Loshki has a point they will fix certain things in Lucid as time goes on, however as far as I know it's still only security updates. | 02:22 |
| tman_ | ok one sec | 02:23 |
| TomV-415 | jadakren: I guess I can also do a full backup, and then reinstall...yetch. | 02:23 |
| hiexpo | always mdchecksum | 02:23 |
| sebsebseb | Surlent777: that's why I don't get all these people who think a LTS becomes magically way more stable, after a point release | 02:23 |
| Surlent777 | sebsebseb: Yeah, I'm kind of counting on an upgrade fixing it, but as I implied before I'd like to file an appropriate bug report to help out if I can get a bit more information on where it's screwing up =/ | 02:23 |
| tman_ | im running the command | 02:23 |

| tman_ | d044a2a0c8103fc3e5b7e18b0f7de1c8 | 02:24 |
| sebsebseb | Surlent777: I think it may be soon time to dump Ubuntu on the other computer as well, at least I know that the distro that I am thinking about putting on, will work rather well indeed | 02:24 |
| o2oo | hi | 02:25 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | tman_: Your iso is good. Did you verify the burn? | 02:25 |
| * jadakren resists the urge to be sarcastic | 02:25 | |
| Surlent777 | sebsebseb: I'm not very willing to change distros because I've tweaked the expletive out of this one, and I feel I can't live without the package manager =( That and for the most part it's been good to me. | 02:25 |
| tman_ | whats weird is the same cd worked fine on my laptop | 02:25 |
| sebsebseb | Surlent777: hoepfuly by 10.10 they will have got things properly good with Ubuntu again, but I have a feeling that won't be quite the case | 02:25 |
| tman_ | it installed fine | 02:25 |
| tman_ | its just my desktop | 02:25 |
| sebsebseb | Surlent777: oh you can run apt-get and synaptic in other distros as well | 02:26 |
| meowbuntu | oceania | 02:26 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | tman_: Ok, Might have to use the alternate disk maybe? | 02:26 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | tman_: Desktop older than the laptop? | 02:26 |
| Surlent777 | sebsebseb: I'm aware of that, and Arch has its pacman system, but the selection isn't quite the same...even Linux Mint, which is based directly off of Ubuntu, has some unique packages not directly related to it, for instance (i.e. qlix) | 02:26 |
| ScoobySnack | greezmunkey: heh | 02:26 |
| tman_ | yeah my desktops 4 years old my laptops only a year and a half | 02:26 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | tman_:1Ghz, 512MB ram, 5GB hdd | 02:26 |

| onetinsoldier | Surlent777: hey. i tried installing Dune 2000 a few weeks ago with Wine in the 10.04 Beta. it bombed out. thought i'd try it again now. dang! it alsmot had me thinking it was going to work! it siad can't find necessary files and please run setup.exe from the CD, which is exactly what i was doing, lol. but the install screen came up no problem! | 02:28 |
| westinghouse | jadakren, 1998 first pentium 2s | 02:28 |

| tman_ | burn it and boot using it | 02:28 |
| neverblue | what application do you suggest | 02:28 |
| rodd | hey | 02:28 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | tman_: yeah its a text based installer. | 02:28 |
| acicula | 512mb in 1998 you'd be pretty pimp | 02:28 |
| neverblue | sorry, mis-post | 02:28 |
| jadakren | westinghouse, you mistake me for someone who cares. | 02:28 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | tman_: You cant even verify the disk on the menu though? | 02:28 |
| westinghouse | yeah, i stil got a pentium2 for my firewall | 02:28 |
| tman_ | no nothing at all it sucks | 02:28 |
| enigmajr | i've been struggling with the aftermath of an upgrade from Karmic to Lucid. The machine won't boot and it's on an OVH box on another continent, so having to wipe everything and start from ground 0 is an option, but certainly not preferable. I have access to the machine in rescue mode, so I still have access to all of the original data | 02:28 |
| enigmajr | i've read on the forums that it could potentially be a grub issue? | 02:29 |
| rodd | I just installed ubuntu 10.04 through windows but I can only boot with kernel in safe mode, when I try booting without safe mode I get the following messages: http://pastie.org/943015 - Does anyone have any idea? | 02:29 |

| neverblue | what application do you suggest I use to convert movies, avi, to mp4, for playback on the iPhone ? | 02:29 |

| Ari_Lazarus | Hi guys! I've been dual-booting XP and Jaunty for a while, and I've noticed something strange happening. My external hard disk drive (Western Digital Elements) has problems when it is accessed by Windows 7.

| westinghouse | ok | 02:32 |
| yogesh | neverblue: I am sorry. I am not good with computers | 02:32 |

| greezmunkey | mrsaturn: that's ok, brb | 02:41 |
| air139 | It opened a file browser, I think it is browsing the CD's files and not the hard drives | 02:41 |
| mrsaturn | ok | 02:41 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | air139: Places menu, find the drive | 02:42 |

| greezmunkey | mrsaturn: what is the model of adapter? | 02:42 |
| mrsaturn | wna1100 | 02:42 |
| buttons840 | Surlent777, wow, those are complicated files, moreso than the old ones; bash script or something? | 02:42 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | air139: You should have filesystem, which is the live filesystem, and you should have your internal physical hdd. | 02:43 |
| air139 | LinuxGuy2009: there is a drive with a long name. | 02:43 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | air139: Thats probably it yeah. | 02:43 |

| zcat[1] | Temporarily locking out a user? I used to be able to do "chsh username -s /bin/false" -- this still stops shell logins but not graphical logins? | 02:43 |
| duongthaiha | how the gnome run the program on the menu? is there a way to find out which script it used to run it? | 02:43 |
| mrsaturn | greezmunkey, it's the netgear | 02:43 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | air139: open it and go to /home/user | 02:43 |
| Surlent777 | buttons840: I don't think so. GRUB has its own interpreter, afaik. What exactly are you trying to do? | 02:43 |
| mrsaturn | the ralink chipset is the usb adapter i'm using right now | 02:43 |

| zcat[1] | so what's the easiest was to lock out a login now? | 02:44 |
| Surlent777 | buttons840: I'm not sure if that's where you want to look, but try also /etc/default/grub | 02:44 |

| retro89 | can someone help me | 02:45 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | D3RGPS31: What other drives do you have listed? | 02:45 |
| elifed | that might work better for you | 02:45 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | oops | 02:45 |
| reedless | I hate to kick a dead horse but im having some serious issues with sound sinve i upgraded to 9.10 | 02:45 |
| sebsebseb | anon0: I know I know, 8.10 great version of Ubuntu, and sadly no longer supported, however 9.04 is good enough to upgrade to. | 02:45 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | air139: What other drives do you have listed? | 02:45 |
| zcat[1] | elifed: I want it to re easily reversable.. and from script.. editing /etc/password is possible but chsh was a lot easier! | 02:45 |
| zcat[1] | *be | 02:45 |
| duongthaiha | hi all is there a way to know which command used to run the program from the menu?? | 02:45 |
| sebsebseb | anon0: 9.04 is supported untill this October | 02:45 |
| sebsebseb | anon0: I guess like 30th October | 02:45 |
| Surlent777 | reedless: try deleting your ~/.pulse/ folder and rebooting | 02:45 |
| reedless | I attempted to remove pulseaudio and install ALSA (this is what i had with 9.04) and now i have no sound at all and alsa shows no available hardware | 02:45 |
| Name141 | sebsebseb: Hardy has one more year? | 02:46 |
| air139 | LinuxGuy2009: one called file system and one with a really long random string | 02:46 |
| anon0 | sebsebseb: 9.04 doesn't work with my wireless and video | 02:46 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | air139: the random string is the internal drive | 02:46 |
| sebsebseb | Name141: yep April 30th 2011 I guess is when it will go end of life | 02:46 |
| greezmunkey | mrsaturn: in that link, stay away from the /etc/network.interfaces portion for now... | 02:46 |
| Surlent777 | duongthaiha: Right-click the menu, and choose to edit it. In the menu editor, find the program, hit properties, and you can see the command | 02:46 |
| zcat[1] | elifed: and it used to work just fine until Lynx | 02:46 |
| sebsebseb | anon0: maybe downgrade to Hardy then, or find another distro | 02:46 |
| elifed | zcat[1] /bin/false doesn't stop X logins | 02:46 |

| itilious | is anyone here having issues with the 10.04 update not letting yoru system boot? | 02:47 |
| elifed | hmm, haven't tried it in Lynx | 02:47 |
| reedless | Would anyone here recommend that i use pulseaudio or should i remove it? | 02:47 |
| sebsebseb | anon0: you can't actsaully downgrade from 8.10 to 8.04, well you probably can some how, but would brake things etc. | 02:47 |
| onetinsoldier | Surlent777: what's that file you said i | 02:47 |
| Surlent777 | haha, oh, I thought zcat[1] was talking about the web browser >_< | 02:47 |
| sebsebseb | Name141: what from 8.04? | 02:47 |
| Name141 | sebsebseb: yes. | 02:47 |
| retro89 | 10.04 has many issues | 02:47 |
| air139 | LinuxGuy2009: the home folder can't be found by me | 02:47 |
| Surlent777 | onetinsoldier: rain20.zip, also Display Doctor 7 Beta | 02:47 |
| the20year1 | what would cause firefox to close regularly in ubuntu when trying to access wikipedia? | 02:47 |
| onetinsoldier | Surlent777: what's that file you said i'd need to get again? not the display doctor. but the other file? | 02:47 |
| sebsebseb | Name141: uhmm 8.04 is better than 10.04 in certain ways it really is | 02:47 |
| retro89 | can someone help help with my atheros wireless card? | 02:47 |
| sebsebseb | Name141: also I just upgraded a computer from 9.10 to 10.04, and got some right weird boot up issues | 02:47 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | air139: If you dont do backups before installing or upgrading then you risk losing your data | 02:47 |
| elifed | zcat[1] well, it isn't easily reversible, but it might be your only out | 02:47 |
| retro89 | 10.04 wont shutdown on my pc | 02:47 |
| sebsebseb | !downgrade | anon0 | 02:48 |
| ubottu | anon0: Attempting to downgrade to an older Ubuntu version is explicitly not supported, and may break your system. | 02:48 |
| sebsebseb | anon0: so yep clean install | 02:48 |
| Name141 | sebsebseb: Maybe I'll wait a few months | 02:48 |
| anon0 | sebsebseb: maybe just start stripping and re-compiling | 02:48 |
| air139 | LinuxGuy2009: so if it was recoverable it would be here? | 02:48 |
| retro89 | can someone help help with my atheros wireless card? | 02:48 |
| mrsaturn | greezmunkey, i'm not sure what to do with the link provided, because i'm very new to linux | 02:48 |
| enigmajr | sebsebseb: i haven't been able to boot into my server since i upgraded | 02:48 |
| elifed | zcat[1], weird though | 02:48 |
| onetinsoldier | Surlent777: roger. thanks. Dune 2000 just installed, then i updated it to v1.06, then ran it and it ran and played the intro movie, then hung. damn, so close with wine, but no cigar. i now have a <defunct> process, lol | 02:48 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | Name141: Why wait? | 02:48 |
| Name141 | sebsebseb: But I noticed hardy wont give me anything more than 800x600 support for the display. (3DFX Voodoo3 8MB) | 02:48 |
| TommyThaGun | umm.. okay, so I overwrote my boot sector... Yes.. Yes.. rookie mistake | 02:48 |
| sebsebseb | anon0: oh taking some programs out and updating others yourself you mean? well there will be some ppa's for 8.10 | 02:48 |
| air139 | LinuxGuy2009: it is saying that this is only 235.5 MB large drive | 02:48 |
| TommyThaGun | I'm on a LiveCD though, what can I do go fix it? can I just run dpkg-grub? | 02:49 |
| Surlent777 | onetinsoldier: did you try to tell it to run in Win98 mode, etc? | 02:49 |
| Name141 | LinuxGuy2009: I dunno. | 02:49 |
| sebsebseb | enigmajr: oh | 02:49 |
| Legendario | is anyone experiencing anoying cd playback with lucid? | 02:49 |
| zcat[1] | bah, one thing I can say for lucid, I've been intending to move back to debian for a while.. lucid finally gave me the motivation I needed. | 02:49 |
| Surlent777 | onetinsoldier: also try googling/looking at the WineHQ wiki thing | 02:49 |
| greezmunkey | mrsaturn: ok, but I need about 15 minutes, have to go to the store. | 02:49 |
| retro89 | can someone help help with my atheros wireless card? | 02:49 |
| Name141 | LinuxGuy2009: Maybe the bugs will be ironed out ? | 02:49 |
| * sebsebseb will remove Plymouth on other computer, and find out what boot up is like after that, hrm | 02:49 | |
| itilious | i'm using the 10.04 LIVE CD, so i know my computer works with 10.04 but why wont it boot the upgrade? | 02:49 |
| * sebsebseb will do that soon it seems | 02:49 | |
| mrsaturn | i can wait greezmunkey | 02:49 |
| anon0 | hmm | 02:49 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | air139: Then i would consider your data gone. get into the routine of backing up your home folder either with a cool backup app or at least copy and paste to an external drive. | 02:49 |

| TommyThaGun | !bootsector | 02:49 |

| retro89 | can someone help help with my atheros wireless card? | 02:50 |
| elifed | zcat[1], odd that it breaks something standard like that | 02:50 |
| Name141 | LinuxGuy2009: No. I haven't even attempted to go from LTS -> LTS yet | 02:50 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | air139: Partitions show up in places list as random strings | 02:50 |
| * sebsebseb wonders if xsplash in the 10.04 repo, will find that out soon as well | 02:50 | |
| Reallycool | I'm installing ubuntu to an external media, how do I keep it from rewriting the INTERNAL MBR? | 02:50 |

| LinuxGuy2009 | Name141: Who what made you think Lucid is full of bugs? | 02:50 |
| sebsebseb | Surlent777: well xsplash was a bit lame by default with the white Ubuntu logo for 9.10, Kubuntu one is nicer | 02:50 |
| sebsebseb | Surlent777: anyway I guess it can be used instead of Plymouth in 10.04 | 02:51 |
| sebsebseb | Surlent777: for boot up | 02:51 |
| Name141 | LinuxGuy2009: [08:45:30:PM] <sebsebseb> Name141: also I just upgraded a computer from 9.10 to 10.04, and got some right weird boot up issues | 02:51 |
| anon0 | is there anything that's a little more informative than lsmod? | 02:51 |
| zcat[1] | lucid is full of intentional changes that really piss me off. not bugs ;) | 02:51 |

| air139 | LinuxGuy2009: okay, well this sucks, but thank you. | 02:51 |
| onetinsoldier | Surlent777: ok, set to Win98 mode. going to try again now. thanks for your help :) | 02:51 |
| retro89 | 10.04 caused many issues like sound and not able to shut down my pc | 02:51 |
| zcat[1] | if they were bugs it wouldn't annoy me so much | 02:51 |
| Surlent777 | onetinsoldier: not a problem. I'm a big old-school gamer myself =D | 02:51 |

| duongthaiha | retro89: which machine that you have?? | 02:52 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | Name141: Yeah i dont personally do upgrades. Copy and paste the home folder stuff to an external drive, install fresh and copy home stuff back. Pretty safe that way. | 02:52 |
| LinuxPhreak | I'm learning how to build ubuntu packages. I've been reading https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PackagingGuide/Complete#Basic+Packaging and have gotten up to the part where I build the package. I'm getting an error though. The error is at http://pastebin.com/bySefpBv if anyone knows how I can fix it can you please tell me? | 02:52 |
| sebsebseb | Surlent777: I am a bit scared to try removing Plymouth in a way, whilst not even having Xsplash installed, but no not really or not exactly, since I remember how actionparsnip removed Plymouth since he didn't like the eye candy, and well he can boot into his system | 02:52 |
| Surlent777 | zcat[1]: the titlebars and the lack of tooltips for anything in the indicator-applet are the things that piss me off the most =/ | 02:52 |
| anon0 | i think older hardwar is not as compatible as everyone may think... | 02:52 |
| retro89 | I bulit my own | 02:52 |
| duongthaiha | i see | 02:52 |
| Name141 | It takes it to "system halted" and cuts off the hard drive | 02:52 |
| zcat[1] | the /bin/false thing is the most recent annoyance... | 02:52 |
| Name141 | then I have to press the power button | 02:52 |
| elifed | zcat[1], it's fun, but quirky | 02:52 |
| Surlent777 | sebsebseb: I think he hangs out on #ubuntu-offtopic in the evenings...we might wanna try asking him about it | 02:52 |
| Name141 | Like it's Win95 or something | 02:52 |
| duongthaiha | i got some problem which also loading HDMI sound first | 02:52 |

| Name141 | anon0: It was a Gateway Essential 450 | 02:54 |

| anon0 | <Name141> yeah definately : ) | 02:55 |
| anon0 | <Name141> like me | 02:55 |
| Name141 | anon0: Something comes up complaining about the ACPI and about the 1999 year BIOS , and about how I'd have to force ACPI.. blah blah | 02:55 |
| Name141 | anon0: Then it goes ahead and boots in to Ubuntu | 02:55 |

| xangua | yoono can also conect to facebook and flickr as gwibber | 03:02 |

| intel___ | AbuMaia, I am connected just fine to it right now on this computer. | 03:03 |
| greezmunkey | mrsaturn: you need to blacklist one of the driver modules, I'll double check, then we'll get that done...brb | 03:03 |
| smc | neverblue, I'm getting it down from adobe now I'll try that, and hope it don't brake my 10.4 with that 8.x package | 03:03 |

| ubottu | Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 03:05 |
| AbuMaia | intel___: it sounds like the access point is blocking it for some reason, but I can't be sure | 03:05 |
| greezmunkey | mrsaturn: change directory to /etc/modprobe.d | 03:05 |
| intel___ | AbuMaia, what can be done about that? | 03:05 |
| JackStoner | Axident: try installing Granola... | 03:05 |

| mrsaturn | correct? | 03:06 |
| greezmunkey | mrsaturn: are you familiar with the vi editor? | 03:06 |

| storrgie | How do you check the status of it? | 03:07 |

| neverblue | u cannot do a search with apt-* ? | 03:08 |
| twiztid | neverblue: by disabling ipv6 at boot will spread cross-browser, and shows improved download speeds in youtube, facebook games etc.. | 03:08 |
| neverblue | you have to use aptitude search ? | 03:08 |
| neverblue | twiztid: that still doesn't repair flash in browsers (that was the initial issue) | 03:08 |
| greezmunkey | mrsaturn: add the following line to your file: blacklist rt73usb | 03:08 |
| deja | you can use synaptic | 03:08 |
| neverblue | deja, I prefer cli :D | 03:09 |
| K350 | How do one launch a perl script placed in Autorun in a terminal, say gnome-terminal or konsole? | 03:09 |

| TommyThaGun | I overwrote my boot sector, and all I have is a karmic livecd. how can I repair grub from it? | 03:09 |
| mrsaturn | ok, then do i have to restart my computer? | 03:09 |
| deja | neverblue:: oh i do too haha. just saying, if you're unfamiliar with aptitude... (as i am) | 03:09 |
| npope | TommyThaGun: grub-install | 03:09 |
| greezmunkey | mrsaturn: no, but it may be simpler for you at this point. | 03:09 |
| mrsaturn | is rt73usb the ralink usb or the netgear, because i need to use the netgear to connect | 03:10 |
| sloof3 | I'm trying to move my Ubuntu install from one HD to another. I've created my partition tables, copied all my files and I think all I need to do is straighten out GRUB. How might I do this? | 03:11 |
| twiztid | neverblue: i must have come into that one late, should you uninstall all versions of flash, and reinstall? | 03:11 |
| mrsaturn | and greezmunkey, i'm incredibly new to ubuntu, i have no idea what's simple | 03:11 |
| d6chung | Hi, I'm trying out Ubuntu Server for the first time and I'm wondering: during boot, does it go into some graphical mode? | 03:11 |

| TommyThaGun | npope, when I do that I get this error "grub-setup: error: Cannot read `/grub/core.img' correctly" | 03:11 |
| neverblue | twiztid: I am starting with a fresh new install here | 03:11 |
| neverblue | twiztid: not sure what to do, to repair flash | 03:11 |
| neverblue | deja, there is apt-cache search, actually | 03:11 |
| greezmunkey | mrsaturn: what other adapters are there? | 03:12 |
| Theravadan | anyone know how I can take advantage of : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AES_instruction_set .. i have a newer 32nm intel | 03:12 |
| mrsaturn | i have a hawking/ralink usb connecter | 03:12 |

| greezmunkey | mrsaturn: you are wired, or wireless now? | 03:13 |
| air139 | LinuxGuy2009: How do I mount it? | 03:13 |
| mrsaturn | wireless, both adapters are for wireless connection | 03:13 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | air139: mount it and browse it | 03:13 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | air139: double click it? | 03:13 |
| mrsaturn | the ralink is what i'm using right now | 03:13 |
| smc | twiztid, I'm not up to speed with grub2 yet, That line goes in grub.cfg file exactly where? | 03:13 |
| greezmunkey | mrsaturn: I though something looked wierd...let me double check your posts. | 03:13 |
| air139 | LinuxGuy2009: I found where it is using gparted | 03:13 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | air139: very good | 03:14 |
| twiztid | smc: navigate to /etc/default/grub | 03:14 |
| air139 | LinuxGuy2009: It says that lvm isn't supported | 03:14 |
| air139 | LinuxGuy2009: when I double click it | 03:14 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | air139: right | 03:14 |
| smc | twiztid, OH I in /boot/grub/grub.cfg | 03:15 |
| acicula | Theravadan, aes-ni is supported by eccryptfs for awhile already , openssl has also | 03:15 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | air139: so your pretty much screwed unless you can get some kind of recovery boot cd or something that supports recovery from lvm or whatever | 03:15 |
| Cocito | t | 03:15 |
| acicula | Theravadan, so nothing to be done | 03:15 |
| twiztid | no worries, open grub with admin privs. and add 'ipv6.disable=1' to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="" in between the quotes | 03:15 |
| air139 | Does anyone know where i can find a recoveryboot cd that supports LVM? | 03:16 |
| smc | twisted`, Ok I see the line now | 03:16 |
| hipitihop | in 9.10 and earlier, showing a background image in twinview would spread the image across both monitors, howver now it sizes the image on each monitor seperately, where can I control that setting ? | 03:16 |
| Plugh | Nice job on Ubuntu 10.04. I just upgraded 9.10 to 10.04 on my laptop and it was very easy. I only had 2 minor things to fix after it was done, and one package to reinstall (and possibly the accelerated video drivers to be installed). | 03:16 |
| twiztid | smc: cool then when done save the grub file and run sudo update-grub from terminal | 03:16 |
| greezmunkey | mrsaturn: interestingly enough, your system loaded three drivers! So the next step would be to determine which drivers are actually needed. Remove the adapter that you are trying to configure, and then run the lsmod command again - please paste the result. | 03:16 |
| Reallycool | YO DAWGS I'm going to be working on downed computers here, what packages would you guys recommend for these tasks? | 03:16 |
| steve_ | Anyone goodwithhandbrake | 03:17 |

| Plugh | However, I have found one big problem. If I close the laptop to put the machine to sleep for a bit, when I re-open the lid, the laptop screen remains black and it seems as if the machine may still be sleeping. Anyone heard reports of problems with sleep/wakeup on laptops in 10.04? | 03:17 |
| Reallycool | Plugh: yes | 03:18 |
| kongove | hello alll | 03:18 |
| sean_ | Jon_: a week or so? I don't think so, consider the driver could be quite a big change | 03:18 |
| Reallycool | Plugh: but it's not exclusive to 10.4, it's on all of them | 03:18 |
| mrsaturn | greezmunkey, http://paste.ubuntu.com/426741/ | 03:18 |

| storrgie | try to grab a key or something | 03:20 |
| Viper550 | cause I mknow people have issues with WUSB600N V2, but mine's just the non-V2 | 03:20 |

| enriq | why the window close/minimize/maximize buttons are in the other side in gnome! oh my god | 03:20 |
| Plugh | enriq: KDE puts them on the left? | 03:21 |
| greezmunkey | mrsaturn: question, you are currently using one wireless adapter, right - to connect to the Internet. What is the other one for? | 03:21 |
| acicula | steve_, have you ever watched dvd's on your computer? | 03:21 |
| enriq | Plugh, gnome is putting them on the left | 03:21 |
| mrsaturn | the other one is a replacement for the current one, because this one dies out quickly | 03:21 |
| AbuMaia | enriq: don't worry, you'll either get used to it, or you can move them back to the right if you really need to | 03:22 |
| trism | Oak: in gconf-editor, go to /apps/nautilus/preferences/always_use_location_entry (or you can just press ctrl+l when you want it and it'll will change back when you navigate somewhere else) | 03:22 |

| mitchell | d6chung, this is all ubuntu channel | 03:24 |
| Theravadan | d6chung, #ubuntu-server | 03:24 |
| greezmunkey | mrsaturn: I want you to try something before we go any further. Shut your machine down, then insert the new adapter only. See if it comes up - I have a feeling that it will. Check it out, and come back here. | 03:24 |
| acicula | d6chung, there is ubuntu-server but its a lot slower then #ubuntu | 03:24 |
| mitchell | or that? | 03:24 |

| lonestarshack | ok, that link for the gconf-edit didn't seem to work | 03:27 |
| mclark1129 | Is it worth it, are there a lot of 9.10 issues that have been fixed? Or is it too soon, and should I wait for a later release? | 03:27 |

| douglas | yo dawgs lol | 03:29 |
| mrsaturn | so you want me to restart with only the adapter i want to use plugged in right | 03:30 |
| mrsaturn | and run lsmod? | 03:30 |
| smc | twiztid, http://ajuegos.com/juegos/solitario-spider/ | 03:30 |

| peanutpan | hi. if i have put a dvd in the drive, and i can go through the filesystem and whatnot and execute programs from it, then it must be mounted, yes? why would there be no device, then, in gparted? or, on a related note, how can i figure out what device is associated with a folder in /media/ ??? | 03:30 |
| mclark1129 | sebsebseb, AbuMaia, jadakren: Thanks | 03:30 |
| xfact | arnotixe_, Choose the one with showing maximum space, that your main HDD, where grub should go... | 03:31 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | peanutpan: open your media folder and look? | 03:31 |
| dsnyders | #centos | 03:31 |
| dsnyders | oops! Something ate my /join | 03:31 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | peanutpan: also can look in fstab to see i think. | 03:32 |
| Reallycool | OK, I KNOW ubuntu liveCD does not take this long to shut down, none of the access lights are doing anything, anyone want to tell me what's going on? | 03:32 |
| peanutpan | LinuxGuy2009: ok. supposed i am interested in "/media/UDF Volume". i want to know what /dev/* is associated with this. i tried right clicking on UDF Volume and looking for information, but i don't see anything useful. | 03:32 |
| tonyyarusso | LinuxGuy2009: it won't be in fstab | 03:32 |
| === Nomad_ is now known as Wanderer | ||
| tonyyarusso | peanutpan: it'll be in the output of 'mount'. | 03:32 |
| AbuMaia | Reallycool: just hold down the power button for a few seconds ^_^ | 03:32 |
| acicula | Reallycool, its challening you to press the powerbutton | 03:32 |
| hipitihop | anyone know how to set a desktop background image across both monitors as opposed to replicated seperately on each ? | 03:32 |
| arnotixe_ | xfact, ok I have various hard drives, but the root file system and /boot/ was residing on /dev/sda5 before. Should "grub-install /dev/sda5" do it? I tried but it complains about /dev not mounted? Running from eth 10.04 liveCD. | 03:32 |
| mrsaturn | greezmunkey, http://paste.ubuntu.com/426751/ | 03:32 |
| tonyyarusso | peanutpan: it's probably /dev/cdrom0 | 03:32 |
| twiztid | smc: hrm running good here, what browser are you in? firefox here with a modified config, what are you seeing when you try to acces that game? | 03:33 |
| acicula | Reallycool, it should switch to a you can now safely reboot screen | 03:33 |
| Reallycool | AbuMaia, acicula: are you sure that's safe? Or are you just messing with me? | 03:33 |
| craigbass1976 | Where can I read about the rationale for this right-left swap? | 03:33 |
| air139 | I get this message when I try to mount my LVM drive "mount: can't find /dev/m00t/root in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab" can anyone translate for me? | 03:33 |
| peanutpan | tonyyarusso: great, thanks! | 03:33 |
| acicula | Reallycool, well it can be safe | 03:33 |
| tonyyarusso | craigbass1976: I think Mark Shuttleworth's blog? | 03:33 |
| sebsebseb | tonyyarusso: I got some serious issues here after upgrading from 9.10 to 10.04, maybe you can help | 03:34 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | peanutpan: look at /dev by-uuid | 03:34 |
| acicula | Reallycool, but if you have mounted disks in the livecd session it may corrupt stuff there, but it seems unlikely | 03:34 |
| tonyyarusso | air139: um, what the heck is /dev/m00t/root? | 03:34 |
| AbuMaia | Reallycool: it may not be completely safe, but if your harddrive lights aren't flashing, it's probably not writing anything, so it *shouldn't* mess anything up | 03:34 |
| greezmunkey | mrsaturn: is the new adapter currently uninstalled? | 03:34 |
| KruyKaze | how do i start a guest session w/ out using the "me" menu? | 03:34 |

| mrsaturn | greezmunkey, i don't think so | 03:34 |
| smc | twisted`, I see the google ads two side by side then a large blank field where I should have a three way choice of loading the game in simple mediuam or expert But I see nothing | 03:34 |
| Percealeaus | so ive downloaded and installed cheese.. however i just get the screen where the colors are and in the bottom right corner, the fuzzy screen. | 03:34 |
| acicula | Reallycool, its probably just stuck in last bit of the powerdown sequence | 03:34 |
| greezmunkey | mrsaturn: is it connected to your system? | 03:34 |
| mrsaturn | yes | 03:35 |
| Reallycool | acicula, AbuMaia: ok, I think acicula helped me to set this thing up an hour ago, so I'll go ahead... | 03:35 |
| sebsebseb | tonyyarusso: my Plymouth is rather messed up indeed, sometimes it work's ok though. what's even odder though is how. if I try to remove plymouth main it wants to remove loads of other stuff as well, such as banshee and f-spot which has nothing to do with it | 03:35 |

| Percealeaus | yes.. linuxguy | 03:36 |

| LinuxGuy2009 | peanutpan: Do what? | 03:37 |
| sebsebseb | tonyyarusso: I would love to remove plymouth main, but I don't want to remove loads of stuff at the same time, that should be installed | 03:37 |
| tonyyarusso | sebsebseb: you'd have to check the dependencies and figure out what's going on - not sure | 03:37 |
| Theravadan | suspend locks up my 32nm core i5 but hibernate works fine | 03:37 |
| near | hi anyone got vmware server 2 working under ubuntu 10.4? | 03:37 |
| sebsebseb | tonyyarusso: right, but how does plymouth depend on Banshee or F-Spot for example? well yeah it doesn't? | 03:37 |
| greezmunkey | mrsaturn: I hate to tell you this, but both of your devices want the same driver from what I can see. Do you have the ability to connect your pc via an ethernet cable at this time? (fo Inet access) | 03:37 |
| tonyyarusso | sebsebseb: dunno | 03:38 |
| peanutpan | LinuxGuy2009: how do i look at /dev by uuid? | 03:38 |
| jason86 | has there been any updates since the final release of 10.4? | 03:38 |
| mrsaturn | greezmunkey, no i cannot | 03:38 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | peanutpan: look in nautilus. /dev/diskby-uuid | 03:38 |
| tonyyarusso | jason86: yes, Gecko SVG support iirc. | 03:38 |
| acicula | Theravadan, are you sure suspend locks? What hdd do you have, how much mem, how much swap and how long did you wait? | 03:38 |
| smc | twisted`, I have no plugins I see. | 03:38 |
| sebsebseb | tonyyarusso: maybe I should try removing the package with aptitude since it seems to be better at dealing with dependancies than apt-get | 03:39 |
| tonyyarusso | jason86: If you want, you can subscribe to a mailing list or RSS feed of all updates to versions you're interested in. | 03:39 |

| greezmunkey | mrsaturn: right now your system is loading two drivers for your wifi adapter. It may be possible that your disconnect issue is related to that alone. The drivers are: rt73usb,rt2500usb. I would try blacklisting rt2500usb, and see if your connection works. If not, blacklist the other and release the first. You may find that your connection stays up. | 03:44 |

| smc | twiztid, Adobe flash fixed the deal | 03:48 |
| smc | thanks | 03:48 |
| Theravadan | I suspended right after booting up, me: 4gb total <1gb was used ithink hdd: SAMSUNG HM500JI ( http://www.samsung.com/ae/consumer/computers-peripherals/hard-disk-drives/mobile-sata/HM500JI/index.idx?pagetype=prd_detail ) 5400 rpm i think, wait 5 or so minutes and it didnt come up, but when i put to suspend the light did blink | 03:48 |
| greezmunkey | mrsaturn: unless you are familiar with adding and removing drivers dynamically, you'll have to retart each time. | 03:48 |
| clausen | I really would appreciate help from ANYONE | 03:49 |
| mrsaturn | ok | 03:49 |
| clausen | please send me the output of "dmesg > dmesg.out" | 03:49 |
| acicula | !dualboot > abhijain | 03:49 |
| ubottu | abhijain, please see my private message | 03:49 |
| twiztid | smc: great to hear! ya them over at adobe do a pretty good job for us opensourcers... anytime! | 03:49 |
| kevr | i beg to differ | 03:49 |
| kevr | just until recently, flash support for linux was a load of it. | 03:49 |
| near | a lot of errors | 03:49 |
| kevr | for years. | 03:49 |
| acicula | clausen, what is it you need? | 03:49 |
| kevr | near.. | 03:50 |
| clausen | acicula, please save the output of "dmesg > dmesg.out", and send it to me | 03:50 |
| kevr | just clear ur CC= variable, and read the vmware docu | 03:50 |
| near | im looking to paste bin it | 03:50 |
| smc | twiztid, It even fix chrome browser | 03:50 |
| clausen | acicula, I want to figure out why my boot is so slow | 03:50 |
| acicula | clausen, why? | 03:50 |
| kevr | in terminal run CC= | 03:50 |
| === miguel is now known as Guest91753 | ||
| kevr | will clear it. | 03:50 |
| acicula | dmesgwont help with that | 03:50 |
| clausen | acicula, and I can compare which milestones are reached at what time | 03:50 |
| acicula | clausen, try running bootchart? | 03:50 |
| near | i did it already | 03:50 |
| near | then tried it again | 03:50 |
| near | failed compiling again | 03:50 |
| kevr | yeah well you need to find out why its failing | 03:50 |
| twiztid | smc: excellent! happy wife! lol =) | 03:50 |
| kevr | what is it saying? | 03:50 |
| iranintoavan | hello, i am using 10.04 and the elementary theme and wondering if theres a fix for the indicator applet icons shown here http://imgur.com/UIh5c.png | 03:50 |
| clausen | acicula, ah, thanks for the suggestion | 03:51 |
| clausen | acicula, but I still think it's good to have something to compare with | 03:51 |
| smc | twiztid, going to be | 03:52 |
| acicula | all you get is the kernel times with kernel messages | 03:52 |
| xangua | iranintoavan: i see no indicator applet | 03:52 |
| near | http://pastebin.com/3m4NtUYL | 03:52 |
| near | any ideas? | 03:52 |
| deja | i give up. i'll wait for 10.10 and maybe ubuntu one will work then | 03:52 |
| kevr | near> what is the command that showed that? | 03:52 |
| crdlb | iranintoavan: what's the problem? | 03:53 |
| near | its the script to install vmware | 03:53 |
| smc | this is an extra box for but when she gets on it it better work the same even though it a different distro and newer, So I have to work all the kinks out | 03:53 |
| kevr | did you run it as sudo? | 03:53 |
| near | ./vmware-install.pl | 03:53 |
| near | yep lol | 03:53 |
| near | i had a problem like this in debian | 03:53 |
| clausen | acicula, yes, that' | 03:53 |
| clausen | acicula, that's helpful | 03:53 |
| kevr | have you read the documentation seeing which version of gcc it needs?.. | 03:53 |
| near | it was solved by setting the gcc to the one that compiled the kernel | 03:53 |
| === tonyr2k8_ is now known as tonyr2k8 | ||
| iranintoavan | xangua and crdlb what bothers me is the spaces between the icons | 03:53 |
| iranintoavan | such as the wifi icons and battery and sound yet all the other icons are fine and all the same spaces. it was not this way in 9.10 | 03:53 |
| PigeonCluster | i lost the game :( | 03:53 |
| smc | twisted`, thanks alot dude. | 03:53 |
| acicula | its not sudo, its using a header that is lacking stuff and/or has things defined differently | 03:53 |
| near | it needs the one that compiled the kernel | 03:54 |
| kevr | thats what it says? | 03:54 |
| kevr | in the documentation? | 03:54 |
| kevr | or that's what you think? | 03:54 |
| rox6 | hi | 03:54 |
| twiztid | smc: for sure bro i try to help when i can, ive been helped so i try to help... | 03:54 |
| acicula | kevr, thats is what im thinking yeah | 03:54 |
| clausen | acicula, but, I can see that bootchart is going to be a better thing to compare | 03:54 |
| near | What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your running | 03:54 |
| near | kernel? [/lib/modules/2.6.32-21-generic/build/include] | 03:54 |
| acicula | clausen, wouldnt have sugested it otherwise | 03:55 |
| near | thats the step that fails | 03:55 |
| kevr | near, so its reading for the header.. not for the compiler | 03:55 |
| seby | hi | 03:55 |
| clausen | acicula, I guess I need to reboot to collect a bootchart log! | 03:55 |
| clausen | acicula, brb... | 03:55 |
| steve_ | acicula I tried saving the vob files, but it wouldn't let me, any other ideas? | 03:55 |
| EverettZ | I'm a blind screen-reader user and can't see to find the download link on the Ubuntu download page. I can select my location from the drop-down, but then nothing happens. Ideas? | 03:55 |
| kevr | well, i suppose you can try to force it against gcc | 03:56 |
| kevr | and try to use the older one | 03:56 |
| acicula | steve_, but you can watch the video vob files when you open them in totem? | 03:56 |
| crdlb | iranintoavan: does it work correctly wit the default icon theme? | 03:56 |
| obiwan_ | people i got problems with my lucid grub. to keep it short, it's a fresh install, it probes succesfully other OSes installed, but it won't write entries in grub.cfg. What may the problem be? | 03:56 |
| twiztid | clausen: how long is your startup? | 03:56 |
| steve_ | acicula, I don't have totem, I'll download it and brb | 03:56 |
| acicula | near, on line 8/9 its redefining a function thats present in the kernel header | 03:57 |
| logankoester | What does it take to get a second keyboard/display/mouse/xserver working? | 03:57 |
| acicula | steve_, its installed by default on ubuntu | 03:57 |
| logankoester | For sharing a single machine | 03:57 |
| kevr | there you go. | 03:57 |
| acicula | just double click and it should work | 03:57 |
| rox6 | anybody knows how to enable the xsession script on lucid? | 03:57 |
| kevr | include/linux/poll.h:70: note: previous declaration of ‘poll_initwait’ was here | 03:57 |
| acicula | near, what kernel version does the module support? | 03:57 |
| iranintoavan | crdlb: yeah it does, i was wondering how to change those icons, or the spaces in between because i love the elementary icon set | 03:57 |
| acicula | its in the readme | 03:57 |
| Plugh | Hibernate works in 10.04 but suspend does not. | 03:57 |
| abhijain | any one plz tell me i have ubuntu 10.4 cd may i able to install grub when i did dual boot with windows | 03:58 |
| Theravadan | ahh this is why it won't suspend for me on my core i5: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1460681 | 03:58 |
| Theravadan | "you need to use an upstream kernel (I used http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa...0-05-01-lucid/) with the "acpi_sleep=sci_force_enable" tag to get it to resume from suspen" | 03:58 |
| RoOkiE17 | i need help to install a splash theme :( | 03:58 |
| obiwan_ | abhijain: what do you want abhijain ? i didn't understand | 03:58 |
| Aamir | i am trying bootrec /Fixboot but giving me Data error CRC | 03:58 |
| Plugh | abhijain: You can use grub to select which OS you want to boot when you turn on the machine. | 03:59 |
| xangua | EverettZ: try the torrent http://releases.ubuntu.com/10.04/ubuntu-10.04-desktop-i386.iso.torrent | 03:59 |

| acicula | * near http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1306032 | 03:59 |
| Theravadan | uhg i dont wanna compile stuff like in the fedora days os i wont use the upstream kernel to get suspend working | 03:59 |
| abhijain | obiwan_: i installed windowas after ubuntu and now boot menu lost . and i have ubutu cd . dont have live cd | 04:00 |
| mrsaturn | greezmunkey, i've tried blacklisting both | 04:00 |
| acicula | if you punch in the error into google, first hit, basically you have to apply a small patch to solve the two compile errors | 04:00 |
| mrsaturn | and i still have the same problem | 04:00 |
| Plugh | Theravadan: are you also having problems with the suspend feature in 10.04? | 04:00 |
| jhgvg | ubuntu sux | 04:00 |
| clausen | acicula, this bootchart is rather hard to interpret! | 04:00 |
| brax | jhgvg: Not really. | 04:00 |
| RoOkiE17 | i cant install usplash.. xsplash help | 04:00 |
| EverettZ | xangua: thanks, that works. Is there somewhere I can file a bug about the UI on that page? | 04:00 |
| xangua | RoOkiE17: ubuntu lucid doesn't uses usplahs | 04:01 |
| RoOkiE17 | so.. how do i install an splash theme? | 04:01 |
| twiztid | clausen: how long is your boot time? | 04:01 |
| crdlb | iranintoavan: I guess you could manually copy the battery icons from the ubuntu-mono-light theme | 04:01 |
| Theravadan | Plugh, yes | 04:01 |
| clausen | twiztid, about 45 seconds | 04:01 |
| Theravadan | Plugh, what kinda system are you running? | 04:01 |
| obiwan_ | abhijain: hm, do you mean you have a ubuntu cd without live? | 04:01 |
| near | that one was for 9.10 ... | 04:01 |
| pandemicfox | hi irc , i have been having problems with my box it freezes up at start and it shows a weird message but it goes to fast is there any place in the system that records what is wrong at boottime ? | 04:01 |
| greezmunkey | mrsaturn: The point of balcklisting was to determine which one of the two drivers you could do *without* using your current wifi adapter, which one of the works with it? | 04:01 |
| Plugh | Theravadan: ok, that makes two of us. I have an HP Pavilion dv4 laptop. suspend worked fine under 9.10 | 04:02 |
| xangua | EverettZ: well you should contact canonical for that i believe, canonical.com maybe¿ | 04:02 |
| iranintoavan | crdlb: where are the icons located so I can do that | 04:02 |
| mrsaturn | greezmunkey, none of them seem to work | 04:02 |
| rox6 | can anyone help me setting up a different window manager on 10.04 ? | 04:02 |
| acicula | near, try it anyway | 04:02 |
| obiwan_ | abhijain: anyway, just enter ubuntu without the live and do sudo grub-install | 04:02 |
| xxx0011 | man I have looked everywhere and I do see my issue that I having with firefox | 04:02 |
| Theravadan | Plugh, what's the processor on it? | 04:02 |
| twiztid | clausen: hrm i barely hit the 38 mark, maybe we're both slow? wats a proper time? i heard they we're shooting for 10 | 04:02 |
| obiwan_ | people i got problems with my lucid grub. to keep it short, it's a fresh install, it probes succesfully other OSes installed, but it won't write entries in grub.cfg. What may the problem be? | 04:02 |
| abhijain | obiwan_: i have ubuntu10.4 is it have option for live?? | 04:02 |
| clausen | twiztid, could be... that's why I've been asking for boot logs! | 04:02 |
| acicula | to get near 10 you need a fast system and an SSD | 04:03 |
| xangua | EverettZ: If you have suggestions for canonical.com or ubuntu.com, please email us at webmaster@canonical.com or webmaster@ubuntu.com says the web | 04:03 |
| Plugh | Theravadan: AMD Turion X2 | 04:03 |
| clausen | (or any kind of numbers to compare with) | 04:03 |
| obiwan_ | abhijain: the ubuntu cd ? the one you download from ubuntu.com? sure it has | 04:03 |
| crdlb | iranintoavan: in the subdirs of /usr/share/icons/ubuntu-mono-light/status, named battery-*. if you copy those into the same spots in your theme, I think it should work | 04:03 |
| twiztid | clausen: ah ok my bad, ill get you one... where you need? | 04:03 |
| Theravadan | Plugh, ok that's a different problem than the 32nm core i5/i3 problem i am seeing | 04:03 |
| clausen | twiztid, well, to start with, dmesg output would be nice. (my email address is clausen@econ.upenn.edu) | 04:03 |
| greezmunkey | mrsaturn: slight communication issue here I think. You were going to test blacklisting with the adapter you are using now, or so I thought. | 04:04 |
| iranintoavan | crdlb: i appreciate it. ill try that out. also how do I reply to you on irc? right now I am just doing "crdlb:" | 04:04 |
| hypetech | Anybody know why I can't remove applications with aptitude or apt-get that I installed with the new Ubuntu Software Center? | 04:04 |
| abhijain | obiwan_: yeah i m new so i dont know | 04:04 |
| acicula | Theravadan, Pudgy if hibernate works but suspend doesnt its ussually due to to small swap or too large memory(it takes time, several minutes) | 04:04 |
| gtozzi | Nice. I've just updated to lucid and my xorg exploded. I have a nvidia video card. nvidia driver segfaults and nouveau fails to load. What I am supposed to do now? | 04:04 |
| Plugh | Theravadan: perhaps. Or just an indication that suspend is partially broken in 10.04 since it worked before in 9.10 | 04:04 |
| acicula | !suspend | 04:04 |
| gh0zt | anyone know if there's a way to make compiz automagically pause video and resume it when switching desktops or rotating cube? | 04:04 |
| mrsaturn | greezmunkey, i've blacklisted the things you told me, one at a time, while the adapter i'm placing is still plugged in | 04:04 |
| crdlb | iranintoavan: that's the right way | 04:04 |
| mrsaturn | however there is no change | 04:04 |
| isurit | iphone 3.1.3 hacked | 04:04 |
| iranintoavan | crdlb: gotcha, I figured. just making sure its showing up on your end :) | 04:04 |
| Plugh | acicula: Its the waking up that seems to be the problem. The screen stays black. | 04:04 |
| obiwan_ | yes it has abhijain , when the computer boots, insert the cd and then look around in the menus, there's definitely a live option there | 04:04 |
| obiwan_ | abhijain: btw welcome to ubuntu :) | 04:05 |
| greezmunkey | mrsaturn: whoa, so if you blacklisted either one, your wifi failed to work? | 04:05 |
| Theravadan | acicula, my swap is 4gb, total mem is 4gb, i waited 5 mins... it has never taken that long | 04:05 |
| === dgtlchlk is now known as dgtl|screen | ||

| === TannerF is now known as TannerF-zzz | ||
| acicula | steve_, i should say view video dvd's | 04:06 |
| twiztid | clausen: this what i got and now IM concerned... http://pastebin.com/59nNuLKj | 04:06 |
| Plugh | acicula: Wait for the led to stop blinking when going in to or coming out of suspend? | 04:06 |
| Roasted | I know you can't change the login screen of Ubuntu - but can you change the lock screen for when you lock the system and then move the mouse to wake it up? | 04:06 |
| leonardo | need help | 04:06 |
| acicula | Plugh, both | 04:07 |
| abhijain | obiwan_: so now how can i install grub i when i installed window7 after ubuntu10.4 | 04:07 |
| Plugh | leonardo: Just state your problem | 04:07 |
| Theravadan | i am going to suspend/resume, i have 4gb total, used is 2.4gb, cached is 1.6 gb, free is 3.8gb | 04:07 |
| mrsaturn | greezmunkey, the adapter says i have to install the setup inside the cd so i can connect to the internet | 04:07 |
| Theravadan | 5mb swap used | 04:07 |
| crdlb | Roasted: no, that is not really themable, except in that it uses your gtk theme | 04:07 |
| leonardo | ok | 04:07 |
| Theravadan | out of 4gb, how long should that take? | 04:07 |
| mrsaturn | but the cd only works in windows programs | 04:07 |
| steve_ | acicula, I can play a dvd, but If I copy the files to the desktop, it won't let me play them, and I can not get them to play at all in handbrake | 04:07 |
| clausen | twiztid, yeah, I don't know what that is... | 04:07 |
| leonardo | i cant install tor from console with apt-get | 04:07 |
| mrsaturn | i've tried wine, but the setup can't find some file so it can't continue | 04:07 |
| leonardo | it says that the packet is not found | 04:08 |
| clausen | twiztid, that's your wireless card | 04:08 |
| twiztid | clausen: i recognize 2500pci as my adapter but im online and connected just fine | 04:08 |
| leonardo | I tried with apt-get update but still not found | 04:08 |
| acicula | steve_, ah right, you need to rip the files from dvd | 04:08 |
| twiztid | clausen: ya rt2500cpi is the driver i believe | 04:08 |
| steve_ | yes | 04:08 |
| twiztid | pci* | 04:09 |
| mrsaturn | greezmunkey, i hope this supplies information: http://www.netgear.com/Products/Adapters/RangeMaxWirelessNAdapters/WNA1100.aspx | 04:09 |
| clausen | twiztid, http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/linux/kernel/1129333 | 04:09 |
| Ytaews | Lucid is taking about six minutes to boot for me, compared to the 20 or so seconds I was getting on Karmic - a clean reinstall could fix this, right? I've backed up all of my files and have an install CD, what do I do now? | 04:09 |
| steve_ | acicula and i have the libdvdcss file | 04:09 |
| acicula | steve_, which may or may not be legal in your country, but anyway dvdrip, google gave me this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DVD%3A%3ARip which seems a bit dated | 04:09 |
| Plugh | acicula: I didn't close the lid when testing suspend. | 04:09 |
| greezmunkey | mrsaturn: ok, using the adapter that is currently working - leaving the other *out* of your system, blacklist rt2500usb and restart, see if your wifi comes back on line. | 04:09 |
| obiwan_ | abhijain: after you install windows, you can install ubuntu just by introducing the ubuntu cd and following the wizard menus. you may also want to install ubuntu as a 'windows program' instaead of as operating system. to set up a grub menu, just enter live or your ubuntu install and run sudo grub-install in a terminal. that's all | 04:09 |
| acicula | Plugh, that shouldnt be needed | 04:10 |
| Theravadan | what is the dpkg command to reinstall a package? | 04:10 |
| obiwan_ | people i got problems with my lucid grub. to keep it short, it's a fresh install, it probes succesfully other OSes installed, but it won't write entries in grub.cfg. What may the problem be? | 04:10 |
| mrsaturn | ok greezmunkey | 04:10 |
| clausen | obiwan_, so, update-grub doesn't work? | 04:10 |
| steve_ | acicula I'm not trying to do anything illegal, I just want to watch my movies I own on my iphone | 04:10 |
| Zas0120 | does anyone know how to go about updating my bios? getting a no sound issue with onboard sound and did some research saying that i need a newer set | 04:10 |
| deja | obiwan_: have you tried just editing the menu.lst manually? | 04:10 |
| rosco_y | which java package should I install to run java apps in firefox? | 04:11 |
| clausen | deja, menu.lst is old grub | 04:11 |
| clausen | deja, (new grub just has grub.cfg, just like obiwan_ mentioned) | 04:11 |
| acicula | steve_, im not saying you were, but i dont know much about ripping the video from dvd really, dvdrip ubuntu is just what i punched in on google | 04:11 |
| RoOkiE17 | gays | 04:11 |
| rosco_y | Zas0120: I'm pretty sure you need to be careful when upgrading your bios | 04:11 |
| deja | crap | 04:11 |
| rosco_y | although I think it's getting easier | 04:11 |
| deja | grub2 is scary | 04:11 |
| clausen | I quite like grub2 | 04:12 |
| clausen | although it has a few problems :( | 04:12 |
| acicula | Zas0120, updating the bios is covered by the manual of the pc vendor, best follow that to the letter | 04:12 |
| rox6 | how do I start a session reading the xsession script? I only see gnome, gnome failsafe and xterm options on my gdm | 04:12 |
| clausen | and I'm a bit disappointed with the maintainers for rejecting my patches! | 04:12 |
| Plugh | deja, I agree. I even read that you have to run an update program if you change the configuration file. That sounds like the bad old days of lilo. | 04:12 |
| rosco_y | Does anyone know which java package I need to install, to run java apps in FireFox? | 04:12 |
| SoulCatharsis | hey guys, just to make it clear, im a total N00B when it comes to linux. I just have one issue I need to resolve | 04:12 |
| clausen | Plugh, huh? | 04:12 |
| clausen | Plugh, it automatically generates stuff, if you like | 04:12 |
| Zas0120 | acicula: thanks | 04:12 |
| clausen | Plugh, but you can edit grub.cfg manually if you want | 04:12 |
| steve_ | acicula no worries I appreciate all the help :) thanks!! | 04:12 |
| Zas0120 | rosco_y: thanks | 04:13 |
| acicula | rosco_y, java mozilla plugin | 04:13 |
| deja | Plugh: yes, and the commenting... the config files look befuddling. | 04:13 |
| rosco_y | :) np | 04:13 |
| twiztid | clausen: thats so funny, i found this https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/456977 at the same time you said the last link... thx alot mate! | 04:13 |
| clausen | twiztid, hehe :) | 04:13 |
| Plugh | deja, yes. the config files do look a lot more complicated. I've stayed with grub1. | 04:13 |
| Walrus23 | ok i am sitting here in front of an SSH session of an ubuntu 8.04 OS, i've just installed KDE on it remotely, how do i set up access via VNC so i can get to the GUI? | 04:13 |
| SoulCatharsis | I am attempting to install my RTL8188SU USB device using several different drivers and I just cant manage to complete the process | 04:13 |
| Walrus23 | from the command line | 04:14 |
| clausen | Plugh, I'm surprised to hear you say that | 04:14 |
| clausen | Plugh, I think it's simpler | 04:14 |
| acicula | Walrus23, run a vnc server | 04:14 |
| clausen | Plugh, is there anything in particular they could make simpler? | 04:14 |
| clausen | Plugh, or anything in particular that scares you about it? | 04:14 |
| acicula | Walrus23, or just ssh in with -X and start apps remotely | 04:14 |
| Plugh | clausen: It was something I read that said if you alter a .cfg(?) file in grub 2, you need to run a command have the file you modified be used to create/update some other file used during grub2 's boot | 04:14 |
| mrsaturn | greezmunkey, i've tried blacklisting rt2500usb with the adapter that's working attached | 04:15 |
| mrsaturn | and it nothing really happens | 04:15 |
| Sam_Fisher | Howdy ya'll! | 04:15 |
| clausen | Plugh, that is not really correct | 04:15 |
| Walrus23 | i'm in SSH, but i want GUI | 04:15 |
| clausen | Plugh, unless you need to add new file systems or whatever into the grub kernel | 04:15 |
| Ramon | Hello | 04:15 |
| rahduke | how can i change the permissions of an folder and everything within it in perpetuity?? | 04:15 |
| Walrus23 | i have no access whatsoever to the physical machine | 04:15 |
| clausen | Plugh, like, the new grub supports many different filesystems, etc. | 04:15 |
| Plugh | clausen: the new config file. My grub.conf file has 4 lines per boot entry. Grub2 had lots more lines of stuff in it. | 04:15 |
| acicula | rahduke, -R (recursive) | 04:15 |
| rosco_y | rahduke: look into chown, it may be what you need | 04:15 |
| clausen | Plugh, huh? | 04:16 |
| rahduke | acicula: yes i know recursive but i'm having issues with chmod it won't take... | 04:16 |
| clausen | Plugh, grub2 is also 4 lines per entry | 04:16 |
| obiwan_ | clausen: not at all. it shows the other probed OSes though, but then i don't have any in the grub.cfg | 04:16 |
| Sam_Fisher | When I boot using Supergrub 0.97 it asks me to login and then password but what name goes before password? Tried several. Why doesn't it boot to my install direct any more? | 04:16 |
| Plugh | I have title, root, kernel, and initrd lines per entry. grub2 had all kinds of stuff in there. It looked exceedingly complicated compared to grub 1 | 04:16 |

| marcosroriz | hello guys | 04:17 |

| greezmunkey | mrsaturn: ok, we solved one of your issues. You now know that your system was loading two drivers for the same adapter. | 04:23 |
| acicula | dmesg log and xorg.0.log, X froze basically, but the system did not, hence ssh working | 04:23 |
| mrsaturn | alright. | 04:23 |
| Jon_ | ok | 04:23 |
| Jon_ | question | 04:23 |
| James806 | Is there any motherboards that are good for making a Linux box | 04:24 |
| greezmunkey | mrsaturn: what I really want to know is how you are getting to the Internet. Do you have a wireless router in your house? | 04:24 |
| deslector | acicula, I found something similar, but it says that is on chipsets i945 and older... how do I know if my chipset is one of those? I know it is n10, but I don't know if it is a re-branding of the i945 for netbooks | 04:24 |
| Jon_ | can i post a url for someone to look at, and possibly help me with? | 04:24 |
| mrsaturn | yes, i connect to a wireless router from downstairs | 04:24 |
| mrsaturn | do you need any information from it? | 04:24 |
| acicula | deslector, lspci | grep vga | 04:24 |

| dave137 | hi I was wondering if anyone could advise me on isntalling alsa or pulseaudio... | 04:25 |
| GuitarInc1 | iotop has informed me that CONFIG_TASK_DELAY_ACCT is not enabled in the kernel. | 04:25 |
| dave137 | is pulseaudio better or worse in 10.04? | 04:26 |
| Sam_Fisher | Help me boot with Supergrub! | 04:26 |
| dave137 | should I stick with alsa, or is it getting phased out | 04:26 |
| GuitarInc1 | is that a just a flag I can throw into my grub bootloader? or do I have to rebuild the kernel? | 04:26 |
| Sam_Fisher | When I boot using Supergrub 0.97 it asks me to login and then password but what name goes before password? Tried several. Why doesn't it boot to my install direct any more? | 04:26 |
| Jon_ | neverblue: the question in regards to the 'proprietary ATI driver' | 04:26 |
| maco | dave137: pulse is included by default | 04:26 |
| Jon_ | neverblue: is where will i find that? | 04:26 |
| maco | dave137: alsa cannot really be phased out as it's the sound drivers | 04:26 |
| dave137 | I installed a command line system, so its not | 04:26 |
| gtozzi | anyone? | 04:26 |
| maco | dave137: well there's OSS, but that *will not* get into the kernel as it does floating point arithmetic | 04:26 |
| neverblue | Jon_: multiple posts are annoying, please be respectful | 04:26 |
| greezmunkey | mrsaturn: I am going to suggest that you let your system run for a while now that the driver situation is sorted. You may not need the one you just got, but don't get rid of it! If you want to visit getting the new one to work I suggest positioning your computer so that you can connect directly to the router with a cable. | 04:27 |
| maco | dave137: there are certainly many fixes to old bugs in 10.04's version of pulseaudio though | 04:27 |
| === donald is now known as Guest58364 | ||
| dave137 | so the question is, do I install pulseaudio, or should I let alsa handle everything | 04:27 |
| Jon_ | to everyone: i've just been repeatedly told to not do something i wasn't aware that i was doing, first it was keep it to a single line, then it was don't post multiple, what am i supposed to do? | 04:27 |
| gavagai | when i click 'create audio cd' in rhythymbox it does nothing... what should i check? | 04:27 |
| greezmunkey | mrsaturn: but first, let your system run to see if the problem is solved, ok. | 04:27 |
| dave137 | I installed debian on another box, and the general feeling there was to stay away from pulse, but they also were opposed to stuff that wasn't stable | 04:27 |

| greezmunkey | mrsaturn: yeah, run it a few days to verify that you aren't having issues. Stuff happens though, don't assume that if your wifi drops that it is your hardware at fault. You can monitor by running a terminal and type tail -f /var/log/syslog - to see what is going on. | 04:30 |
| mrsaturn | greezmunkey, it has to be on for a few days? | 04:30 |

| meoblast001 | i'm running 9.04 | 04:42 |

| meoblast001 | should it be save to recompile mesa if i think something is wrong with the current version? | 04:42 |
| agroker | I lost somehow my wlan0 setup (driver?), how to deal with it under 10.04 - what is the proper name for that application, dealing with proprieatory wifi and GPU drivers? | 04:42 |
| mrsaturn | greezmunkey, http://paste.ubuntu.com/426784/ | 04:42 |
| Sam_Fisher | abhijain: Boot into Ubuntu 10.4 then open terminal then enter sudo update-grub and hang on to your hat cause you are done! | 04:42 |
| speedy87 | acicula: like gparted? | 04:42 |
| tannyr | Sam_Fisher: hey, you suggested Wubi, but I'm trying to use it for windows on ubuntu | 04:42 |
| speedy87 | gparted doesnt pick up on my flash drive | 04:43 |
| mikepq2008 | Sam_Fisher: I don't have a mac... and I don't know anybody who does... am I screwed? | 04:43 |
| wk_exeon | get 10.04 | 04:43 |
| acicula | meoblast001, well depends on what you want to do, upgrading to 9.10 or 10.04 seems more sensible if you need newer versions? | 04:43 |
| acicula | speedy87, thats a partitioner, so yea | 04:43 |
| dabaR | agroker: under system->administration->hardware | 04:43 |
| bcgrown | where are the xfce panel settings stored in xubuntu lucid? i just want to reset it to normal but removing ~/.config and ~/.cache didn't do it | 04:43 |
| meoblast001 | acicula: i don't have that much time to blow though, it takes a while for me to upgrade | 04:43 |
| Flynsarmy | Like 3 distros ago they made it so going Places - <sftp address> didn't lock up the applications panel while it waits to load. It does again in 10.04...is this a bug? | 04:43 |
| meoblast001 | acicula: 2 hours to download all those packages | 04:43 |
| agroker | dabaR, thank you, let's pretend I somehow lost that item in the menu, what package would I have to install? | 04:43 |
| speedy87 | acicula: but gparted doesnt pick my flash drive | 04:43 |
| dibs | dabaR: I have older servers in the field that I can't upgrade just to fit with 5.3.2 | 04:44 |
| greezmunkey | mrsaturn: you have an access point in range, with similar power as yours. That is an issue. Let me look some more, brb | 04:44 |
| jkw | so I am running Intel Corporation Mobile 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 07), did something change with that in 10.04? | 04:44 |
| agroker | in other words, "Hardware Drivers" - what package it corresponds to? | 04:44 |
| acicula | meoblast001, well you dont have to stay with it when it does that | 04:44 |
| dibs | dabaR: Do you know how I can head back to the good ol' days before lucid made me angry? | 04:44 |
| acicula | meoblast001, aside from building replacing system libraries is tricky, and probably will break things if you are upgrading to newer releases | 04:45 |
| Sam_Fisher | tannyr: wubi installs ubuntu into windows | 04:45 |
| meoblast001 | acicula: i have a 10.04 machine, i'll test if the problem is this machine's mesa, or if it's my code | 04:45 |
| tannyr | I'm trying to install windows into ubuntu | 04:45 |
| Baram | just upgraded one of my computers from 9.10 to 10.04 and it no longer boots, just get a blinking cursor instead of grub. I assume just need to reinstall grub, but anyone experience this yet? | 04:45 |

| dibs | tannyr: virtualbox | 04:45 |
| greezmunkey | mrsaturn: what is your wireless network name? Is it "linksys" or "NETGEAR-2.4-G" | 04:45 |
| acicula | meoblast001, ie if its just minor updates to a library, say 1.2.2 to 1.2.3 it'll be fine, but say from 1.2.2 ti 1.4,1 ussually means newer interfaces, depcrecated old ones, etc | 04:45 |

| greezmunkey | mrsaturn: you should probably change yours to channel 1, there is one at that channel, but it's signal is weak enough that changing yours wouldn't hurt tham, but it will improve your signal greatly. | 04:48 |

| krummlauf | modalon? | 05:01 |
| krummlauf | no way what? | 05:01 |
| modalon | boot loader, sry | 05:01 |
| krummlauf | without cd | 05:01 |
| Reallycool | Hey, when I installed to USB, it wrote in all my OSes on my internal to the GRUB loader, how do I remove them? | 05:01 |
| krummlauf | i have no cd drive | 05:01 |
| tannyr | soreau: there is no 3d cube effect with basic gnome settings. I can edit my compiz settings fine, and i can start compiz fine, I just need to add it to a startup process. How do i do that? | 05:01 |
| clausen | Reallycool, you can run "update-grub" | 05:02 |
| xangua | krummlauf: you need a live cd/usb to do that, is it gru 1 or grub 2¿ | 05:02 |
| MobiusJedi | It's not exactly an ubuntu problem per se, but does anyone have the vlc volume normalizer figured out? | 05:02 |
| krummlauf | i dont have a cd | 05:02 |
| clausen | Reallycool, or you can manually delete from /boot/grub/grub.cfg | 05:02 |
| krummlauf | is there a cd-less option? | 05:02 |
| aquachica | Hi. I installed Ubuntu 10.04 and cannot get my wireless to work. I get a red exclamation point over wireless icon. | 05:02 |
| Alkx4444 | jrib, whatever, basically it messes it down beyond the ground. | 05:02 |
| Alkx4444 | dabaR, okay. | 05:02 |
| modalon | no driver at work | 05:02 |
| xangua | tannyr: by enabling the desktop efects should be enough | 05:02 |
| Mipit | Would there be any way for me to change my quickstart button on my laptop to start ubuntu instead of the default Asus Quickstart program? I dont have the program installed now, but the quickstart still works and instead boots to my windows after saying how the program is missing. | 05:03 |
| jkw | i see some people on the forums having trouble with mobile intel graphics chipset, but nothing too similar to what i'm experiencing (ie. total freakout) | 05:03 |
| dabaR | aquachica: you need to connect with ethernet, then you might be able to get the driver | 05:03 |
| acerimmer | aquachica: need to make sure your wireless driver is set up. | 05:03 |
| jrib | Alkx4444: k, that's not enough for me personally to help you, but feel free to try the channel again in a few minutes | 05:03 |
| greezmunkey | mrsaturn: use the dropdown for your 11G channel, use channel 1, then save your router settings. You *will* lose connectivity for a moment or two. If you want to see it happen, open a terminal and type: tail -f /var/log/syslog before you make and save the change :) | 05:03 |
| soreau | tanguy_: 1) Install simple-ccsm 2) Go to sys>prefs>appearance>visual effects and select the Custom radio button 3) Done. | 05:03 |
| xangua | krummlauf: like a said you can also use a live usb, is it gru 1 or grub 2¿ | 05:03 |
| aquachica | dabaR, I am on ethernet at the moment, which driver do I get? | 05:03 |
| krummlauf | it is | 05:03 |
| jkw | although failsafe looks fine, I wouldn't be opposed to just copying that over the generated xorg.conf except for the fact that it doesn't work with xmonad (works with gnome though) | 05:03 |
| krummlauf | grub legacy | 05:03 |
| dabaR | click that icon, it should offer | 05:03 |
| krummlauf | i was using 9.04 | 05:03 |
| acicula | jkw, well intel chipsets are supported from horrible to pretty good depending on what you have | 05:04 |
| aquachica | acerimmer, How do I check to see if my driver is set up? | 05:04 |
| AbuMaia | so how goes the progress on the new font? | 05:04 |
| greezmunkey | mrsaturn: your router will probably reboot, so it may be more like a minute or so. | 05:04 |
| Alkx4444 | jrib, why? what word would you like me to use (other than messed up)? | 05:04 |
| xangua | krummlauf: then you can restore it with superbrub disk; i think they have an option to make it boot from usb | 05:04 |
| jkw | acicula: that's the weird thing, my chipset was supported perfectly in 9.10 | 05:04 |
| krummlauf | i dont have usb | 05:04 |
| krummlauf | lol | 05:04 |
| jkw | acicula: but the upgrade seems to have caused problems | 05:04 |
| anabasis | im having trouble enabling the nvidia driver | 05:04 |
| krummlauf | im on a netbook | 05:04 |
| Mipit | Floppy Disk then? | 05:04 |
| krummlauf | is there an option for netbook | 05:04 |
| sunshinepants | nm | 05:04 |
| jrib | Alkx4444: I wouldn't like you to use any particular word, I would just like some *details* | 05:04 |
| jhite | i've got a question if someone knows the answer... since the 10.04 upgrade my ttys are messed up... they are squished up really tiny across the top... like the entire screen is jammed into 100X1024 resolution | 05:05 |
| Reallycool | clausen: wouldn't that just write it to it again? | 05:05 |
| Alkx4444 | jrib, okay, | 05:05 |
| jhite | any ideas? | 05:05 |
| acerimmer | aquachica: wait 1 | 05:05 |
| aquachica | acerimmer, ok | 05:05 |
| sunshinepants | anabasis: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1353082 | 05:05 |
| clausen | Reallycool, sorry, I must be confused about what you're after | 05:05 |
| anabasis | the hardware drivers gui tells me I am currently using "NVIDIA accelerated graphics driver (Version current) [recommended]" but nvidia-settings and appearance/effects tells me I am not | 05:05 |
| mrsaturn | greezmunkey, | 05:05 |
| mrsaturn | i've done so | 05:05 |
| xangua | krummlauf: then go to a public internet and download it and then burn it to a cd | 05:05 |
| greezmunkey | mrsaturn: the result? | 05:05 |
| dabaR | aquachica: if you click the icon with the red thing on it, it might offer the driver | 05:06 |
| tannyr | soreau: is that list of custom settings gnome or compiz? | 05:06 |
| krummlauf | netbooks dont have a cd drive | 05:06 |
| clausen | Reallycool, can we talk in private... it's hard to keep track of the conversation in this noisy channel | 05:06 |
| greezmunkey | mrsaturn: did you save the settings on the router? | 05:06 |
| dabaR | aquachica: also you can go to system->admin->hardware | 05:06 |
| acicula | jhite, kms propably, disablemodesetting as a kernel option and see if it goes away | 05:06 |
| mrsaturn | according to network manager the % connectivity jumped to 68% to 82 | 05:06 |
| mrsaturn | greezmunkey, yes | 05:06 |
| krummlauf | im trying to fix this now | 05:06 |
| Alkx4444 | jrib, how come some kde apps completely slam down ubuntu and won't let it start the desktop or command line. | 05:06 |
| tannyr | soreau: ccsm is compiz settings manager right? | 05:06 |
| greezmunkey | mrsaturn: there you go, I don't think I can be of much more help :) | 05:06 |
| jhite | acicula: coudl you point me to the file to edit? | 05:06 |
| jhite | i can take it from there | 05:06 |
| mrsaturn | what about the other adapter? | 05:06 |
| tannyr | soreau: i'm retarded, i realized right after I typed it thats what it is >.> | 05:06 |
| SoulCatharsis | anyone know how to get RTL8188SU installed and functional? | 05:06 |
| ani9 | Hai all... Is there any command to find the active ethernet port in sys? im having 2 etherenet cards in my sys.. | 05:07 |
| acicula | jhite, kernel options go in /etc/default(s)/grub(2) | 05:07 |
| acerimmer | aquachica: http://www.linux.com/news/enterprise/networking/8259-making-wireless-work-in-ubuntu | 05:07 |
| jrib | Alkx4444: sigh... what exactly do you mean by "won't let it start the desktop or command line"? Start it where? Give examples of the kde apps you refer to. | 05:07 |
| dhruvasagar | wasssssuuuuuuuup ? | 05:07 |
| acicula | jhite, theres only one, but im not exactly sure on the filenames, but there is only one possible combination of what i listed | 05:07 |
| krummlauf | no one can help D: | 05:07 |
| aquachica | dabaR, Now checking. | 05:07 |
| mrsaturn | another reason i'm switching is because the current one heats up really quickly for no good reason | 05:07 |
| aquachica | acerimmer, Now loooking. | 05:07 |
| dhruvasagar | how is the upgrade to 10.04 going guys ? | 05:07 |
| jhite | found the file thanks... looking at it now | 05:08 |
| greezmunkey | mrsaturn: as I said earlier. Run with what you have now. Your original issue was that this one didn't work, well I think we may have sorted all of that out. Run it a day or so, and then if you want to get the other one going, you'll have to directly connect your puter before working on it. | 05:08 |
| dabaR | ani9: ifconfig | 05:08 |
| anabasis | sunshinepants: doesn't help. how do I actually enable the nvidia driver ? | 05:08 |
| Chaorain | hello? | 05:08 |

| dhruvasagar | anabasis: have you installed the nvidia drivers from synaptic yet ? | 05:08 |
| mrsaturn | ok, thanks a lot greezmunkey! :d | 05:08 |
| jhite | so where it says quiet spalash i add disablemodesetting | 05:08 |
| jkw | is there someway maybe to revert to the old intel graphics chipset setup? | 05:08 |
| greezmunkey | mrsaturn: as long as it dosen't melt, or catch on fire you'll be alright :) | 05:09 |
| jkw | work tomorrow without xmonad is going to be brutal :) | 05:09 |
| SoulCatharsis | I guess the Realtek chipset RTL8188SU is hopeless... | 05:09 |
| anabasis | dhruvasagar: nvidia-current and dependencies, right? no other packages needed ? | 05:09 |
| sunshinepants | anabasis: nvidia-xconfig will configure x to use nvidia.. if it's not installed properly that won't work though | 05:09 |
| mrsaturn | hehe | 05:09 |
| greezmunkey | mrsaturn: sure, I help you out, and you stick your tongue out at me :P | 05:09 |
| dhruvasagar | anabasis: if you've already installed them, you should go to System -> Administration -> Hardware Drivers | 05:09 |
| greezmunkey | heh | 05:09 |

| Alkx4444 | jrib, I forget what kde apps do this, but some kde apps on ubuntu 9.04 install, but when I restart my computer it changes the loading splash screen from ubuntu to kubuntu, and finishes loading with a black screen with a few white glichy marks on the top of the screen. | 05:10 |
| clausen | Chaorain, ubuntu still uses grub | 05:10 |

| * aquachica hugs both dabaR and acerimmer. :D | 05:15 | |
| ahmose | thanks i will try that. :) | 05:15 |
| tannyr | xangua: I've searched for my problem and it seems to be a bug. oh well :\ | 05:15 |
| MarkTraceur | Anybody know how to change the default memory allocation size for the IcedTea Java Plugin? | 05:15 |
| acicula | as the binary drivers dont use modesetting anyhow | 05:15 |
| acerimmer | aquachica: good luck | 05:15 |
| hayleyw | can someone tell me how to set up google docs as the default editor for word/excel/etc files as netremix had it before release? i cant figure out how to change it to the way it was. please :P | 05:15 |
| ahmose | good karma to you all <3 | 05:15 |
| jhite | yes | 05:15 |
| krummlauf | D: | 05:15 |

| acicula | hmm then you cant disable modesetting | 05:15 |
| jhite | would it help if i took a picture and uploaded it | 05:15 |
| acicula | nope | 05:15 |
| jrib | Alkx4444: I'm just suggesting you try 10.04 and not hang onto 9.04. It will be supported for 6 months, but after that you'll have to upgrade to /something/ supported | 05:15 |
| dabaR | aquachica: what did you do exactly? | 05:16 |
| krummlauf | no one is helping me | 05:16 |
| krummlauf | this is racist | 05:16 |
| acicula | err you can maybe try to set a specific vga terminal with vga= option, but im just guessing now | 05:16 |
| jrib | Alkx4444: all non-LTS releases only have support for 18 months | 05:16 |
| acicula | krummlauf, have some patience | 05:16 |
| MarkTraceur | krummlauf: Whatcha need? | 05:16 |

| acicula | krummlauf, whats auto super grub | 05:17 |
| ahmose | will lucid be supported more than 3 years? | 05:17 |
| krummlauf | hang on ill show you | 05:17 |
| jhite | vga=795 | 05:17 |
| jhite | that's in there | 05:17 |
| dabaR | aquachica: OK, good, wnted to know for the future... | 05:17 |
| Flannel | ahmose: Three years on the desktop, five years on the server | 05:17 |
| xangua | ahmose: desktop version 3, server 5 | 05:17 |
| conner | can i get a someone to help walk me through how to set up IcedTea in order to use java? the links help a little but im still lost | 05:17 |
| acerimmer | krummlauf: unless you have some super high tech boot setup I would STRONGLY urge to to just stick with grub. | 05:17 |
| ahmose | thanks! | 05:17 |
| rww | ahmose: Lucid is supported for 3 years on the Desktop, so until April 1013. 5 years on servers. | 05:17 |
| krummlauf | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows?action=show&redirect=RestoreGrub | 05:17 |
| krummlauf | its the unofficial auto super grub | 05:17 |
| aquachica | dabaR, No prob. Thanks again. :) | 05:17 |
| jrib | rww: 1013 eh? | 05:17 |
| acicula | abhijain, again, you are using grub2, not grub, so there is no grub for sudo to start, you are reading the wrong instructions, you need to use update-grub2, look in the wiki for that command and read from there | 05:17 |
| dabaR | krummlauf: that's really funny about the 5 white people. | 05:17 |
| MarkTraceur | conner, what is it using now? I think IcedTea gets set up pretty well automatically | 05:17 |
| dabaR | acicula: you're welcome | 05:17 |
| rww | jrib: Accurate to within one millenium! | 05:18 |
| ahmose | very niice. thanks all, you are very helpful :) | 05:18 |

| modalon | fs by uuid is distrurbing | 05:18 |
| jrib | !lts | Alkx4444 | 05:19 |
| ubottu | Alkx4444: LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server. The current LTS version of Ubuntu is !Lucid (Lucid Lynx 10.04) | 05:19 |
| Baram | where are the directions to re-install grub2 from liveCD? | 05:19 |

| acicula | well not by adding/moving disks | 05:19 |
| aule | where in xchat can I find the autojoins...or do I do that with like python? | 05:19 |
| jrib | aule: that's a setting /somewhere/, don't know where | 05:19 |
| dabaR | mrsaturn: you might get a clue if you run it in the terminal | 05:19 |
| mdel | hey all... can anyone help me with a x-tunnelling issue im haing with a stuck meta-key? | 05:19 |

| modalon | aule: networks | 05:19 |
| mdel | im tunnelling with nomachine nxclient | 05:20 |
| acicula | krummlauf, it may work i suppose if its udated, recoverying grub after windows is as easy as booting from the livecd with selecting your install as root and updating grub by running update-grub2 | 05:20 |
| jrib | Alkx4444: what's your question about LTS? | 05:20 |
| mdel | and the "s" and "m" keys are popping up menus | 05:20 |
| aule | jrib, mofalon kk ill look there | 05:20 |
| MeXTuX | My computer has a front audio jack. When I installed Intrepid Ibex it worked but now with Karmic and Lucid Lynx it is not working. My Motherboard is D946GZIS and the audio is N10/ICH 7 Family High Definition Audio Controller | 05:20 |
| dabaR | !grub | Baram | 05:20 |
| ubottu | Baram: grub is the default boot manager for Ubuntu releases before Karmic (9.10). Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto - See !grub2 for Karmic onwards. | 05:20 |

| jrib | Alkx4444: because man-power is limited basically | 05:21 |

| Guest44527 | clausen: you mean there is no way to install ubuntu from a ubuntu installation? | 05:31 |

| SamFisher | sudo apt-get firefox | 05:32 |
| maco | SamFisher: you forgot the word "install" | 05:32 |
| clausen | Guest44527, maybe it's worth looking into the ubiquity package | 05:32 |
| Haly | trying that...... | 05:33 |
| clausen | Guest44527, I could be just wrong | 05:33 |
| clausen | Guest44527, ubiquity looks like it might be it | 05:33 |

| aetaric | infid: the package wouldn't be a backport now.... it would be in the main package pool. | 05:38 |

| PixelDJ | Hey guys. I'm running Lucid Lynx on my Macbook Pro (2,1) and often while I'm browsing the web or working in the terminal, everything freezes for 4 or 5 seconds and the computer restarts and takes me back to the rEFIt screen. Is there a log or something that I can check to see if I can find what may be causing the unexpected restarts? | 05:39 |
| Guest44527 | greezmunkey: so I cant install ubiquity (or the text equivalent) in ubuntu? | 05:39 |
| Guest44527 | aetaric: that doesn't get it installed for you | 05:39 |

| modalon | acklavidian_: try install alsa frm source | 05:40 |

| dominicdinada | hmm anyone handy with virbr0 ? haha | 05:42 |
| Moral_ | PixelDJ, yep, you're right. I am sorry. | 05:42 |

| jst | Is there any advantage to manually installing NVIDIA's drivers vs. apt-get install nvidia-current? | 05:42 |
| PixelDJ | Moral_, It's all good. I'm just confused and not so great at troubleshooting issues like this. I wonder if it might be overheating as my mac seems to be getting a lot hotter in Ubuntu as it does in OSX. | 05:43 |
| aetaric | Guest44527: then put the live cd on the flashdrive.... | 05:43 |
| acerimmer | jst: you might be able to get a bleeding edge driver that's not currently in the repos. | 05:43 |
| Moral_ | PixelDJ, that's what I was thinking. Make sure you have cpu scaling on | 05:44 |
| jst | acerimmer, right. As of now, nviida-current is the latest driver NVIDIA's offering. | 05:44 |
| jst | I wonder if they will keep up with it though. :) | 05:44 |

| Moral_ | PixelDJ, Right click on one of your panels. Go to "add to panel" in the search bar up top type cpu add the CPU scaling monitor. Then set it to "on demand" this will put it at the lowest frequency and it will scale up when needed. | 05:46 |

| locke | Lucid is using one of my mouse buttons as "forward" (button9), how do I unbind this key so I can use it with another application? | 05:59 |

| teamcoltra | I am not able to get sound input (either by built-in, or by the mic port) on my laptop. I was able to get it in Windows... but then when I switched to Karmic it didn't work, and it still does not in Lucid | 05:59 |
| modalon | Can anyone please give a hint alsa pls? | 05:59 |
| aetaric | !sound | 06:00 |
| ubottu | If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 06:00 |
| archayl | i installed ubuntu lucid with fresh install, i played mp3, it worked out of the box (strange), and it played as streaming media? | 06:00 |

| Moral_ | CompanionCube, sudo mv /etc/init/gdm.conf /etc/init/gdm.conf-disabled | 06:03 |

| bgupta | Trying to install foswiki on Lucid.. Am I doing something wrong or is it just not in the repos? | 06:07 |

| acklavidian_ | acerimmer were you refering to me | 06:08 |
| bgupta | BTW - Booting Lucid on an fast ESXi server is ridiculously fast.. on the order of one second. | 06:08 |
| aetaric | archayl: like i said... it isn't a real mp3. if it is a fresh install of lucid you won't have mp3 support unless you have installed it. | 06:08 |
| acerimmer | acklavidian: nope. | 06:08 |
| krummlauf | i have the new install | 06:08 |

| markatto | shawnboy: they're not actually that closely related. I don't know what you need to do for your synaptics stuff though. | 06:09 |
| acerimmer | krummlauf: ok, Disk Util, Delete the partition then run update-grub to fix the menu | 06:09 |
| markatto | and moving away from hal is likely a good thing | 06:09 |

| bgupta | ANyone know what the status for twiki and foswiki is? | 06:12 |
| bgupta | Seems there is a twiki package in karmic but not lucid, and no foswiki packages to be found | 06:12 |
| Jordan_U | loftus49: First try "sudo dpkg --configure -a", then if that finishes without error "sudo apt-get -f install" | 06:12 |
| === anom01y is now known as lsemple | ||
| lsemple | hi, just wondering if it was possible to recover the kernel for Ubuntu | 06:13 |
| Jon_ | question | 06:13 |
| loftus49 | OK .. will go and try ... thank you. | 06:13 |
| Jon_ | i'm installing via the text based installer, and i'm at the !!Partition Disks portion of the install.... | 06:13 |
| lsemple | I loaded something into it and now its freezing, none of my other kernels will work either | 06:13 |
| aetaric | lsemple: why do you need to recover a kernel then? | 06:14 |
| lsemple | I just upgraded to 10.04 yesterday, so it should be whatever is latest | 06:14 |
| lsemple | aetaric: or reinstall | 06:14 |
| Jon_ | i've previously partitioned my internal harddrive with BootCamp, and have selected the Bootcamp partition, which is currently labeled as Do Not Use, and i want to use it. can anyone tell me what i should do to change it? | 06:14 |
| lsemple | remotely | 06:14 |
| aetaric | lsemple: doesn't sound like a kernel issue to me | 06:14 |
| bgupta | To be clear there are twiki packages in dapper, hardy, interpid, jaunty and karmic, but none in lucid. Are the lucid package repos incomplete? | 06:14 |
| archayl | aetaric: i tested again with mp3 i ripped from cd, it is the same. All mp3 played as streaming. Any suggestion? | 06:15 |
| Flannel | Jon_: Are you on the main "see all of your partitions" menu, or have you aleady gone 'into' that partitions menu? | 06:15 |
| maco | bgupta: they were removed then. i dont know what the reasoning was in the case of twiki, but i know that *all* non-buildable packages were purged as of luci | 06:15 |
| maco | *lucid | 06:15 |
| aetaric | archayl: i've no clue then. it might be the software. | 06:15 |
| lsemple | aetaric: I went to recovery mode, and it stops at an error "init: ureadahead-other main process (861) terminated with status 4 | 06:15 |

| Jon_ | Flannel: I've backed out to the ! Ubuntu installer main menu.... if you can tell me what to do from there that would be helpful | 06:16 |
| ruby_on_tails | no prompt for user/pass or anything | 06:16 |
| MarkTraceur | Hey, does anyone know how to increase the amount of memory allocated to the IcedTea Java plugin? | 06:16 |
| lsemple | aetaric: is it some kind of init file ? | 06:16 |
| bgupta | maco: twiki is perl code.. does that qualify as "non-buildable? | 06:16 |
| PixelDJ | Question. I went to my Login Screen settings and turned off the "Play login sound" option, but it still plays when I login. Is this a known bug? | 06:16 |
| maco | bgupta: if the packaging was crap enough or if it depended on the "wrong" version of perl... | 06:16 |
| archayl | aetaric: i doubt all the mp3 collection I have is ripped using the same software, some of it even bought from online store, i'll try to install gstreamer mp3 support | 06:16 |
| Flannel | Jon_: You'll go back into that partitions submenu thing, then hit enter on "do not use" and it'll change to give you more options. Or, maybe you choose the part about "Format" from No to yes. And it'll give you a bunch more choices | 06:16 |
| bgupta | maco, is there any place to check on the web? | 06:16 |
| Flannel | Jon_: Sorry, I'm doing this from memory, so I don't remember exact verbage, but I do know what I'm doing, honest ;) | 06:17 |
| maco | bgupta: im checking to see if theres anything in the bugtracker | 06:17 |
| Jon_ | Flannel: i have 'Detect Disks' 'Partition Disks', i'm guessing i should detect....? | 06:17 |
| aetaric | lsemple: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ureadahead/+bug/484677 | 06:17 |
| MarkTraceur | Hey, does anyone know how to increase the amount of memory allocated to the IcedTea Java plugin? | 06:17 |
| Jon_ | Flannel: when i detect disks, it gives me the disks it sees, then i can select the current Fat32 bootcamp partition | 06:18 |
| Flannel | Jon_: Oh, you've backed out too far. | 06:18 |
| bgupta | maco: thx, please let me know.. | 06:18 |
| Jon_ | Flannel: again, i'm guessing, but i'm selecting that fat32 partition, and will type what i see next | 06:18 |
| Flannel | Jon_: you've essentially goneinto the 'expert mode' list of things-to-do-during install, which isn't a problem, | 06:18 |
| maco | bgupta: it was deleted for efr being unmaintained and insecure | 06:19 |
| aetaric | lsemple: it has to do with an stab entry | 06:19 |
| aetaric | *fstab | 06:19 |
| Flannel | Jon_: Sounds good. You'll eventually go to "partition disks" | 06:19 |
| othcon | Does anyone know anything about the hp mini 210's multitouch touchpad? No matter what i try that i find on google i cant get multitouch working. Driving me nuts | 06:19 |
| lsemple | ahh ok | 06:19 |
| maco | bgupta: the decision actually came from debian | 06:19 |
| PixelDJ | Question. I went to my Login Screen settings and turned off the "Play login sound" option, but it still plays when I login. Is this a known bug? Or is there a configuration file I can edit to double-check that it is turned off? | 06:19 |
| lsemple | well I believe I loaded something to do with sensors into it | 06:19 |
| Jon_ | Flannel: the header on this page reads, ! Partition Disks, and partition settings as Name : Bootcamp, and Use as: do not use, however, i DO want to use it, so what do i do? | 06:19 |
| maco | bgupta: unmaintained means those insecurities weren't getting fixed | 06:19 |
| lsemple | aetaric: I loaded sensors into it | 06:19 |

| GhostWolf | hi all, im having a problem installing ubuntu 10.04 LTS from a cd, i've had chosen to install then i just see the ubuntu logo and then it goes to a login screen can anyone help? | 06:20 |
| bgupta | maco: Fair enough.. foswiki is the fork that got all the communities interest, after the trademark fiasco.. unfortunately noone has added that to upstream yet.. (Although there is a third party repo with packages) http://fosiki.com/Foswiki_debian/ | 06:20 |
| archayl | aetaric: It's working properly now that i've installed the gstreamer mp3 support, still bugs me though, mp3 could be played out of the box like a streaming media | 06:20 |
| Jon_ | Flannel: i can't hit /, i can only hit enter, and then i have that list | 06:21 |
| maco | bgupta: i also see a request in ubuntu to replace twiki with foswiki | 06:21 |
| maco | bgupta: debian doesnt have foswiki yet? | 06:21 |
| Flannel | Jon_: Sorry, one of those options is "/" meaning "root" | 06:21 |
| aetaric | archayl: shouldn't have worked... | 06:21 |
| Flannel | Jon_: Unfortunately, it's different than "/root" | 06:21 |
| Jon_ | Flannel: there is no 'root' in this list, shall i list what IS there? | 06:21 |
| bgupta | maco: not sure.. I'll check in a few.. work emergency to deal with right now | 06:21 |
| Flannel | Jon_: Hold up. Is there a place where you can specify that you want to format it? | 06:22 |
| maco | bgupta: im checking | 06:22 |
| archayl | aetaric: that, is what bugging me...i'll find a way to clear up this confusion | 06:22 |

| Flannel | Jon_: It'd be on that same subscreen thing | 06:22 |
| Jon_ | Flannel: let me reiterate, i'm on an iMac 27" | 06:22 |
| Flannel | Jon_: Then we're at the wrong screen, but sure, go ahead and list the options it gives you. | 06:23 |
| Jon_ | Flannel: i previously partitioned the drive with BootCamp | 06:23 |
| Flannel | Jon_: Oh, I'm sorry. Is one of the options "Ext3" or "Ext4"? | 06:23 |
| aetaric | lsemple: try this chroot your system. edit /etc/ureadahead.conf and change normal exit 0 to normal exit 0 4 | 06:24 |

| Flannel | Jon_: right, choose Ext4 | 06:25 |
| donpdonp | kde185: whats pgo? | 06:25 |
| Flannel | Jon_: Then below that, for mount point, you want "/" | 06:25 |
| kde185 | donpdonp: profile guided optimizations | 06:25 |
| === Leonopteryx is now known as Companion-Cube | ||
| Jon_ | Flannel: and that Ext 4 will use the bootcamp partition and the ubuntu install should proceed? | 06:26 |
| kde185 | donpdonp: it's the reason windows firefox is so much faster than linux firefox | 06:26 |
| kde185 | donpdonp: that and flash for linux sucks | 06:26 |
| Flannel | Jon_: It will use that partition, yes. | 06:26 |
| aetaric | Jon_: EFI can't boot ext4 | 06:26 |
| bgupta | maco: What a PITA. Weird to hear of a mildly popular package that's NOT in debian | 06:26 |
| Flannel | aetaric: Can it boot ext3? or what's the deal with that? | 06:27 |
| Jordan_U | aetaric: This is with BIOS "emulation" | 06:27 |
| Theravadan | why are the kernel sources from mainline blank? http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/daily/2010-05-01-lucid/ | 06:27 |
| Jon_ | Flannel: I chose Ext4, and have parition settings, Name Bootcamp, Use as Ext4 journaling file system, mount point is none, mount options is default, label is none, reserved blocks is 5%, typical usage is standard, bootable flag is off | 06:27 |
| Jordan_U | Flannel: Jon_: Having Ubuntu on ext4 is not a problem with intel macs. | 06:27 |
| Flannel | Theravadan: ask in #ubuntu-kernel | 06:27 |
| aetaric | it can boot ext3 and reiser | 06:27 |
| Flannel | Jordan_U: Mount point is "/" | 06:27 |
| Jon_ | Flannel: none of those items are editable, i can't change any to / | 06:27 |

| Jon_ | please advice | 06:29 |
| Jon_ | advise rather | 06:29 |
| Jordan_U | aetaric: If you want to load grub-efi, the grub-efi image needs to be on a fat32 partition. But in this case, with grub-pc, grub is loaded from the mbr + embedded area and from there grub can read ext4 just fine. | 06:30 |
| aetaric | Jon_: you use rEFIt? | 06:30 |

| Jordan_U | aetaric: That's what Ubuntu will do by default, and is IMO the best thing to do. What would you do instead? | 06:33 |
| Jon_ | Flannel: mount point is currently, by default, "none" | 06:33 |
| Loshki | wizard: I don't run virtualbox myself, but I don't recall anyone mentioning this issue. Is there anything running in background that might account for it? (run 'ps ax' in a terminal) | 06:33 |
| acerimmer | Jordan-U: advanced install options lets you choose where to install grub. | 06:33 |
| aetaric | Jordan_U: the partition. | 06:33 |
| Flannel | Jon_: Then I'll hazard a guess that you're doing something wrong, perhaps at the wrong step, or chosing the wrong partition, or I'm not sure what. | 06:33 |
| russ | hi anby can you help me with a virtualbox problem? I had virtualbox installed, and went to Synaptic to install 3.1 which was "successful" however virtualbox seems to be completely gone from my system now | 06:33 |
| matheus | hi all | 06:33 |
| Jordan_U | aetaric: Why? That requires blocklists, which are unreliable. | 06:34 |
| aetaric | lsemple: try /etc/init/ureadahead.conf | 06:34 |
| Jon_ | Flannel: i'm not sure what i could have done wrong, as i strictly followed your suggestions and reported back the results | 06:34 |
| Flannel | Jon_: Although I've never heard of something like this before | 06:34 |
| * greezmunkey resists the temptation to mess with his grub | 06:34 | |
| lsemple | aetaric: not there either | 06:34 |
| lsemple | er | 06:34 |
| russ | Synaptic shows virtualbox 3.1 as installed | 06:34 |
| lsemple | aetaric: found it | 06:34 |
| Flannel | Jon_: Right, I'm unfamiliar with Bootcamp, perhaps Jordan_U can help you, he seems more familiar with Macs in general. I just know the alternate CD | 06:34 |
| realubot | How do I make this work: wine "C:\Program Files\Spotify\spotify.exe" /uri spotify:user:username:playlist:4zUeo8Lva7nMqQHZTU2Zpf && sleep 5 && xdotool key "space" | 06:35 |
| keitherz | hi | 06:35 |
| wizard | Loshki: I use htop (similar to top but with ps ax-like output) and I cant see anything that would use VirtualBox's connection since VB is closed. | 06:35 |
| realubot | wine will "lock" the Terminal so that the rest of the commands won't execute. | 06:35 |
| Jon_ | Flannel: let me restate that i'm on page [!!] Partition disks you are editing partition #3 of SCSI1 (0,0,0) (sda). This partition is formatted with the FAT 32 file system. All data in it WILL BE DESTROYED! Partition settings, INDENT Name: Bootcamp, use as : Ext4 journaling system, mount point: none, etcetc | 06:36 |
| arand | realubot: remove one "&" ? | 06:36 |
| dotch | hi there i have a problem with ubuntuo 10.04, every time the machine starts up, the window decorators are not fully visible, i cannot see the close, minimise and maximise buttons, can anyone assist? | 06:36 |
| aetaric | Jordan_U: habbit mostly | 06:36 |
| aetaric | *habit | 06:36 |
| neofish | dotch: they're on the left | 06:36 |
| Loshki | wizard: It was just a guess. I assume a reboot will fix it. Maybe someone else knows more... | 06:36 |
| acerimmer | dotch: had that same problem last night. Check your desktop Effects settings | 06:36 |
| wizard | Loshki: rebooting will not fix it, nor does just restarting X. | 06:37 |
| Jon_ | Jordan_U: would you perhaps have been following my and Flannel's converstion? | 06:37 |
| arand | realubot: "&&" per definition waits until the command has finished and then executes the next.. | 06:37 |
| Jordan_U | Flannel: Installing to an intel mac is exactly the same as with any other pc except to boot Ubuntu after installation you need to hold option. | 06:37 |
| Flannel | Jon_: Yes, I know where you are. In the normal install process, you'd change mount point to / and then be on your way. I'm not sure what would be causing you to not be able to do so. | 06:37 |
| aetaric | if you know that it will boot ext4 if he puts it on the mbr then by all means. | 06:37 |
| Jon_ | Flannel: i don't know either, except that hitting / isn't changing none to / | 06:37 |
| Flannel | Jordan_U: Does bootcamp do something odd that wouldn't let him partition that drive? (even though he wouldn't be partitioning until he confirmed anyway) | 06:37 |
| wizard | Loshki: it appears to only send data when the other connection, my eth0, is also sending data. This may be a firestarter error but it's very suspicious and sending data to a place I cant find. | 06:38 |
| dotch | acerimmer, i have the settings on "None" although i did install compiz settings manager, i have not used it at all yet | 06:38 |
| Loshki | wizard: sounds nasty. Tried #virtualbox yet? | 06:38 |
| gh0zt | anyone know a tool i can use to connect my DV cam via firewire? | 06:38 |
| realubot | arand: Yes, I know. I'll check it out. | 06:38 |
| Flannel | Jon_: no, you hit enter, and then you'll be given a dropdown of options (to select with the arrow key) | 06:38 |
| gh0zt | HDV cam | 06:38 |
| Jon_ | Flannel: hitting ENTER on 'none' has allowed me to select / from a list of options to change it to | 06:38 |
| neofish | gh0zt: kdenlive | 06:38 |
| Loshki | wizard: hmm. A Firestarter accounting bug? | 06:38 |
| aetaric | no bootcamp just safely resizes the hfsplus partition. | 06:38 |
| Jon_ | Flannel: ok, that worked, mount point is now / | 06:38 |
| keitherz | gh0zt: have you tried google? | 06:38 |
| gh0zt | neofish will that let me use it as a webcam? | 06:38 |
| Flannel | Jon_: You're good to go then. | 06:38 |
| Jon_ | Flannel: now i have 5options from the bottom | 06:39 |
| realubot | arand: Great. It worked. :) | 06:39 |
| Jordan_U | Flannel: Not that I no of, I personally didn't use bootcamp. | 06:39 |
| neofish | you can't use a webcam over firewire | 06:39 |
| neofish | that's what usb is for | 06:39 |
| aetaric | neofish: what is wrong with firewire? | 06:39 |
| Jon_ | Flannel: just choose 'done setting up this partition;? | 06:39 |
| Flannel | Jon_: correct | 06:39 |
| neofish | aetaric: hal initializes it as a dv camera, not a webcam | 06:40 |
| Jon_ | Flannel: thank you, proceeding | 06:40 |
| neofish | because that's what it is | 06:40 |
| aetaric | neofish: and? a dv camera could still be used as a webcam by other OSs | 06:40 |
| aetaric | or even flash. | 06:41 |
| kde185 | is it normal for ubuntu netbook to disable desktop effects? | 06:41 |
| Jon_ | Flannel: ok, i selected that, and i'm back to the previous screen, the overview...i now 'Finish partitioning and write changes to disk? | 06:41 |
| beav_35 | I just built mythtv from source. how do i get it to start automatically? | 06:41 |
| Flannel | Jon_: If the partitions all look right, yeah. | 06:41 |
| Flannel | Jon_: (you didn't accidentally tell it to partition one of your other drives, etc) | 06:41 |
| gh0zt | windows 7 uses my DV cam just fine as a webcam, must be a way to do it on ubuntu | 06:41 |
| ogen | I'd like to thanks kjene who is not here: he fixed my problem that no one could fix yesterday. [Problem: after update+reboot my highest monitor resolution was lower. He had me add a line to the config file and taught me to use this to do it. - gksu gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf - What was added? This will tell you: Identifier"Configured Video Device" (newline) Driver "openchrome" ] And so I have thanked him and taught the body | 06:41 |
| ogen | of friends something, I hope. | 06:41 |
| Jon_ | Flannel: the only change to anything has been to the bootcamp partition, which now has a mount point of / | 06:41 |
| neofish | my point exactly https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Firewire | 06:42 |
| Flannel | Jon_: right. then yeah, continue. | 06:42 |
| greezmunkey | wizard: do you have wireshark installed? | 06:42 |
| Jon_ | Flannel: You have not selected any partitions for use as swap space. Enabling ............ what did i not do correclty? | 06:42 |
| GhostWolf | i have a problem with installing ubuntu 10.04 LTS using live cd, i don't see it asking me to install or if i want to use it without changing anything can anyone help me? | 06:43 |
| Xgates | anyone know anything about gvfs? | 06:43 |
| pcrov | !anyone | Xgates | 06:43 |
| ubottu | Xgates: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? | 06:43 |
| Flannel | Jon_: It wants a partition to house it's stuff (/) and then swap space to use as extra RAM, does OSX already have a swap partition? | 06:44 |
| wizard | greezmunkey: no. Why? | 06:44 |
| Xgates | yeah I did ask my real question few times that's why I asked what I did ;) | 06:44 |
| Jordan_U | Flannel: OSX doesn't use swap partitions (swap file instead) | 06:44 |
| Jon_ | Flannel: no swap partition in OS X, i have 4gb of RAM currently, with room for 12GB more, is 4GB sufficient? | 06:44 |
| Flannel | Jordan_U: Ah | 06:44 |
| aetaric | Flannel: just hae him setup a file swap space later... | 06:44 |
| Flannel | Jon_: Do you intend to hibernate? | 06:44 |
| neofish | 4GB is plenty | 06:44 |
| Flannel | aetaric: or ditch swap all together, if he's got 4GB | 06:45 |
| tasslehoff | I have a serial-usb adapter. It shows up at ttyUSB0, but after a suspend it is disconnected and moved to ttyUSB1. After a while (couple of hours) it moves back to ttyUSB0. This annoys me :) | 06:45 |
| loftus49 | Had a power failure as I was installing Lucid. Now, trying to update causes errors. Example: Update Manager - bsdmainutils Error: E:/var/cache/apt/archives/bsdutils_1%3a2.17.2-0ubuntu1_i386.deb --control returned error exit status 2 | 06:45 |
| neofish | tasslehoff: write some udev rules ;) | 06:45 |
| Flannel | Jon_: 4GB would be sufficient for everyday use, the only reason you'd need swap of any significant amount is to hibernate | 06:45 |
| paranoidphreak | hi everybody, i have bought a new laptop and i loaded the image of ubuntu that i had created on my old laptop using partimage (so the old laptop and new laptop has the same image). my old system's ethernet mac is registered at my school to allow me access to the internet and since i'm going to use my new system at school, i want to use the same mac address as my old machine to access the internet on the new system. i have researched online to spoo | 06:45 |
| paranoidphreak | f my mac address but the instructions are for "eth0" but the new systems interface is "eth1" because it's the same image as my old system. can anyone help me to spoof the mac address of eth1 please? | 06:45 |
| Xgates | let me try again, can someone please help me check to make sure that dbus, udisks and gvfs are running correctly? I don't know how to check this | 06:45 |
| tasslehoff | neofish: hmm. not a bad idea :) | 06:45 |
| aetaric | GhostWolf: what speed did you burn it at? | 06:45 |
| sillycat98 | Anyone have any idea why the new 10.04 won't show anything at all when used on a Sony Vaio with a Geforce 210M? | 06:45 |
| greezmunkey | wizard: you could run that protocol analyzer to (perhaps) determine the origin/destination of that 30k stream | 06:45 |
| Blue1 | tasslehoff: i have wandering usb drives that seem to have an _ added at the end. | 06:45 |
| Jon_ | Flannel: i'm attempting to install Ubuntu on the newest model of 3.06Ghz iMac 27" with the upgraded 4850 video card, i don't think i'll have the need to hiberate ubuntu | 06:46 |
| radioman-lt | 10,04 really rocks, finnaly mu both monitors works ;} thanks everyone | 06:46 |
| greezmunkey | Xgates: look here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GVFS | 06:46 |
| Flannel | Jon_: Alright, then you'll be fine without any swap | 06:46 |

| GhostWolf | aetaric, i don't know, just the normal speed for burning iso on nero | 06:46 |
| aetaric | GhostWolf: try it at 8x the slower speed is better for burning bootable media | 06:46 |
| tasslehoff | Blue1: to their names? | 06:47 |
| Jon_ | Flannel: Creating ext4 file system for / in partiion #3 of SCSii | 06:47 |
| Xgates | greezmunkey: thanks, but that doesn't tell you how to check if it's running properly | 06:47 |
| Blue1 | tasslehoff: yes bfdlinux becomes bfdlinux_ | 06:47 |
| Jon_ | Flannel: installing the base system, 9% and counting | 06:47 |
| Theravadan | i would recommend ext3 over ext4 | 06:47 |
| GhostWolf | aetaric, i never had problems when burning iso's and i been having issues with anything to do with 10.04 | 06:47 |
| tasslehoff | Anyone know which process is run when it suddenly jumps back to ttyUSB0? If I could run it manually, I can live with this. | 06:47 |
| neofish | Theravadan: why? | 06:47 |
| Jon_ | god i hope OS X is there when i reboot | 06:47 |
| Blue1 | tasslehoff: solution is to umount, then remount | 06:47 |
| paranoidphreak | i need the mac to be changed at boot-time | 06:48 |
| sillycat98 | Anyone have any idea why I'm getting no graphics at all on my Geforce 210M even with safe mode graphics? | 06:48 |
| aetaric | Jon_: do you have a time capsule? | 06:48 |
| Theravadan | neofish, i was having hanging issues when copying to/from large >2gb files on ext4 | 06:48 |
| GhostWolf | aetaric, plus theres no option to change the speed when burning iso's | 06:48 |
| modalon | Jon_: be ware | 06:48 |
| Jon_ | modalon: of what? | 06:48 |
| aetaric | GhostWolf: use a different program then. | 06:48 |
| aetaric | !install | 06:48 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall - Don't want to use a CD? See http://tinyurl.com/3exghs - See also !automate | 06:48 |
| Loshki | GhostWolf: have you run md5sum on the disk? | 06:48 |
| modalon | that there is no booting problem | 06:48 |
| Jon_ | aetaric: i use time machine backup, yes | 06:48 |
| Jeff-Linux | Don't mind me asking, what desktop environment is everyone using in here? just curious. | 06:49 |
| aetaric | Jon_: why does it matter if it is there then? | 06:49 |
| Traveler | hey so I'm having trouble with my microphone | 06:49 |
| Jordan_U | !best | Jeff-Linux | 06:49 |
| ubottu | Jeff-Linux: 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. | 06:49 |
| neofish | Theravadan: Never had a problem copying > 20GB files | 06:49 |
| neofish | gnome | 06:49 |
| Jon_ | aetaric: yes, saves me hassle! lol, i've been at this ubuntu thing for two days becuase the release version doesn't have proper ATI drivers by default | 06:49 |
| Jeff-Linux | Jordan_U, I was just asking a question is all. Wasn't looking for the best or anything, so please don't assume. | 06:49 |
| loftus49 | gnome | 06:49 |
| Jon_ | aetaric: no more hassles is a GOOD THING | 06:49 |
| GhostWolf | Loshki, no and im not going through that route cause i don't understand it and never had a problem burning ubuntu iso's before.. and the problem i had earlier was a corrupt file | 06:49 |
| Jordan_U | Jeff-Linux: Read the part about not taking polls. | 06:50 |
| Loshki | Jeff-Linux: some magazine review claimed the majority use gnome (as it comes by default), the rest use kde, and a small proportion use "something else"... | 06:50 |
| Xgates | I thought in Lucid the splash was purple that you see at startup and when you restart? Meaning, I have a custom install of Ubuntu I did with only LXDE and when I restart I get a purple screen saying Ubuntu with the 4 dots below it for a few secs showing processes shutting down and I'd like to remove this purple screen, can I? | 06:50 |
| Jon_ | Xgates: it is purple | 06:50 |
| Xgates | And I didn't install Usplash | 06:50 |
| GhostWolf | aetaric, aslo im in windows and only using one program and never had an issue with burning | 06:50 |
| dotblank | I have about 300mb in updates or I can do a dist upgrade what would be faster? | 06:50 |
| Xgates | magenta? hehe | 06:50 |
| Loshki | GhostWolf: that's too bad, since it's the one thing we know reliably finds corrupted burns... | 06:50 |
| GhostWolf | Loshi i didn't say the burn wasn't corrupted i was having problems installing it doesn't give me the option to install and goes like its loading and brings me to the login screen | 06:51 |
| Xgates | well anyways I didn't install Usplash so I didn't think I'd see this when I restarted and it doesn't look correct since I've only got LXDE installed and I'd like to get rid of it and just see the console | 06:51 |
| sillycat98 | There's nothing I can do to get 10.04 to work except to install with an alternate cd? I'd rather use wubi if at all possible since I've tried grub before and all it did was mess up my windows and didn't even boot the linux afterward. | 06:51 |
| tarball | yeah i had to build my own fglrx driver with the fglrx-2.6.33.patch for 2.6.33-020633-generic | 06:51 |
| aetaric | GhostWolf: and ubuntu burns fine for thousands of people. i assure you the iso on the server works fine. | 06:51 |
| Loshki | GhostWolf: so can you login? And have you? | 06:52 |
| aetaric | !install | GhostWolf | 06:52 |
| ubottu | GhostWolf: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall - Don't want to use a CD? See http://tinyurl.com/3exghs - See also !automate | 06:52 |
| tarball | but it works fine, got SSD TRIM + latest fglrx | 06:52 |
| GhostWolf | Loshki, no i can't i have tried | 06:52 |
| loftus49 | Had a power failure as I was installing Lucid. Now, trying to update causes errors. Example: Update Manager - bsdmainutils Error: E:/var/cache/apt/archives/bsdutils_1%3a2.17.2-0ubuntu1_i386.deb --control returned error exit status 2 | 06:52 |
| aetaric | read the second to last link | 06:52 |
| loftus49 | Any suggestions? | 06:52 |
| GhostWolf | aetaric, and i have i don't know if its just an issue with the latest version | 06:52 |
| Jon_ | written to no one in particular: i'm so glad i'm not support staff here loL! i feel for you guys, i used to be tech support for apple... it can be a mess at times | 06:52 |
| dotblank | my computer is going to break really badly... im doing an upgrade not a clean install | 06:52 |
| dotblank | could get ugly | 06:52 |
| osubuck | hi, how do i change the minimize maximize and close buttons to the right side, in the order from left to right, minimize maximize close | 06:52 |
| Loshki | GhostWolf: you've been working on this all day haven't you? | 06:53 |
| aetaric | dotblank: upgrade works great | 06:53 |
| alamir | anyone here use Artha? | 06:53 |
| === dgtlchlk is now known as dgtl|screen | ||
| sillycat98 | They arn't paying any attention to me either loftus, i'm getting no video at all on my laptop | 06:53 |
| Xgates | well if you had a power failure during an install, good chances the install loftus49 went bad, you should of just reinstalled it | 06:53 |
| Jon_ | sillycat98: pc laptop? | 06:53 |
| loftus49 | lol .. I think we are ghosts | 06:53 |
| pcrov | !controls | osubuck | 06:53 |
| ubottu | osubuck: 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 | 06:53 |
| loftus49 | How to reinstall? | 06:53 |
| sillycat98 | what do you mean pc laptop? it's a sony vaio with windows 7 | 06:53 |
| aetaric | loftus49: put the install disc in? | 06:54 |
| Jon_ | sillycat98: non-apple hardware | 06:54 |
| sillycat98 | yeah | 06:54 |
| aetaric | apple ftw | 06:54 |
| dotblank | aetaric, yea but I have custom everything.. I even made my own usplash and xplashes | 06:54 |
| loftus49 | No ... installed off the "Update Manager" | 06:54 |
| sillycat98 | non apple hardware | 06:54 |
| GhostWolf | Loshki not all day, it takes a while for me to download the file, then i just was able to burn the file and i just not able to get it to install properly, i only got to where it gives me options as live cd's do and then it as before just goes to the login screen | 06:54 |
| sillycat98 | oh, you were upgrading loftus? | 06:54 |
| sillycat98 | i tried that too but it failed, said that the kernel couldn't be compiled | 06:55 |
| loftus49 | From 9.10 to 10.04 | 06:55 |
| Loshki | GhostWolf: and none of those options say "install"? | 06:55 |
| panama | Hi ! ıs there a software which can remove lyrics tag from mp3 files ? | 06:55 |
| GhostWolf | Loshki, yes only once i seen the install and selected it, like i said it prev statement and goes to the login screen nothing as to where i installed the prev versions | 06:55 |
| modalon | 10 is a regression? | 06:56 |
| sillycat98 | i couldn't get past kernel .14 on 9.10 anyway, always kernel panic could not sync or something after i tried updating | 06:56 |
| krummlauf | dude | 06:56 |
| Jon_ | i'm sorry i brought up apple hardware in a case not my own, i apologize | 06:56 |
| aetaric | panama: look in the software center | 06:56 |
| Jon_ | even if it were apple hardware, apple would refer you to the software vendor :) | 06:56 |
| krummlauf | is there no way to delete the ubuntu install from windows? | 06:56 |
| krummlauf | what is this? | 06:56 |
| panama | aetaric: i looked it ca not found. | 06:56 |
| Loshki | GhostWolf: if you won't run md5sum.exe I'm not sure i can help you any further... | 06:56 |
| sillycat98 | did you use wubi krummlauf? | 06:56 |
| krummlauf | dude | 06:57 |
| aetaric | panama: look for an id3 tag editor | 06:57 |
| Jordan_U | krummlauf: Run fixboot then remove the partition and resize your windows install to reclaim the space. | 06:57 |
| sillycat98 | where do you get this md5sum.exe? I'd try it on mine | 06:57 |
| GhostWolf | Loshki, theres no md5 file in the iso.. so how can i check the md5sum? | 06:57 |
| greezmunkey | krummlauf: unless it's wubi, not that I know of. | 06:57 |
| krummlauf | fixboot? | 06:57 |
| Jordan_U | krummlauf: Be sure you run fixboot *first* though. | 06:57 |
| krummlauf | not sure what that is | 06:57 |
| aetaric | GhostWolf: it is on the website | 06:57 |
| dotblank | WOW | 06:57 |
| krummlauf | i think ive already run a fix boot program | 06:57 |
| modalon | Jordan: fixboot is n't availabel | 06:57 |
| lsemple | aetaric: sorry for the wait | 06:57 |
| GhostWolf | aetaric, the iso i downloaded was from ubuntu.com yes | 06:58 |
| krummlauf | im using the disk management tool | 06:58 |
| panama | aetaric: id3 tag editor is easytag but ican not clena lyrics which are embedeed to mp3 :( | 06:58 |
| dotblank | I have to download 2,946MB of data for the upgrade | 06:58 |
| krummlauf | and the partition isnt showing up | 06:58 |

| cs011 | Ahhh! The #ubuntu channel. Were questions are asked and moronic answers are given. Or off topic answers. Or no answers at all. | 07:35 |
| lsemple | I guess I could make a seperate partition for my home folder | 07:35 |
| Fandekasp | hi | 07:36 |
| hatake_kakashi | cs011, do you have a question to ask or are you here to troll? | 07:36 |
| dotblank | lsemple, seperate home partition I think is ideal | 07:36 |
| maco | !patience | cs011 | 07:36 |
| ubottu | cs011: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org while you wait. | 07:36 |
| lsemple | well, now that I am reinstall Xubuntu because the upgrade failed, | 07:36 |
| AbuMaia | cs011: not everyone has an answer to every question | 07:36 |

| cs011 | @hatake_Kakashi I asked if the GMA 500 problem was solved. | 07:36 |
| modalon | you can get the new thing on one partition and decid elater | 07:36 |
| dotblank | did you already set up the partitions.. or did you use guided partitioning | 07:36 |
| lsemple | modalon: I am installing | 07:36 |

| lsemple | got it going eventually, but I crashed it somehow again | 07:38 |
| Jon_ | it's telling me to make the newly installed system bootable, by installing the GRUB boot loader on a bootable device, anyone got a suggestion for me? | 07:38 |
| dotblank | lsemple, sometimes upgrades can fail and are unreliable when you modified the installation | 07:38 |
| Chripher | modalon: do you have any ideas | 07:38 |
| lsemple | Is there a way for the Ubuntu Installer to make a seperate partition for /home ? | 07:39 |

| lsemple | I am going to make the partition for the O/S 80GB is that enought, my home is going to be on its own partition.. | 07:42 |
| dotblank | lsemple, ok yea you make a seperate partition for /home you should be able to select the mountpoint when you are doing manual install | 07:42 |
| osubuck | got everything setup and working first try here, guess im lucky | 07:42 |
| Jon_ | Flannel: do you have a suggestion as to who i should ask? recall earlier someone said it was no different than any other pc, while under bootcamp and formatted as fat32 | 07:42 |

| campassi | hey there, when I'm doing some video encoding on my laptop (tested in 2 operating systems), I get wierd artifacts and blocks in the video, but on another machine with the same encoding process, everything works great. i was wondering if this could be caused somehow by hardware? | 07:44 |
| Jon_ | Flannel: it says : [!!] Configuring grub-pc spacespace You need to make the newly installed system bootable, by installing the GRUB boot loader on a bootable device. The usual way to do this is to install GRUB on the master boot record of your first hard drive. If you prefer, you can install GRUB elsewhere on the drive, or to another drive, or even to a floppy. | 07:44 |
| dotblank | campassi, are the software version the same? | 07:45 |

| NoReflex | sillycat98: use nouveau.modeset=0 when booting the livecd or installing. | 07:46 |
| Jon_ | Flannel: there's a suggestion here, that says, "/dev/sda2 will use the second partition of your first hard drive, and that seems to be relevant, considering bootcamp IS on the second partition of my internal harddrive | 07:47 |
| Flannel | Jon_: Earlier you said the partiton was partition #3 of sda, so that'd be sda3 | 07:47 |
| jb12 | how do i change my login menu | 07:47 |
| NoReflex | dotblank: glxgears runs fast | 07:47 |
| campassi | dotblank: i tried two software versions on this laptop, (the one with the artifacts), also I used debian and ubuntu, and one of the versions on the bad laptop matched the version on the good laptop. | 07:47 |

| campassi | but no artifacts on the good laptop | 07:49 |
| cwe_moetz | hy | 07:49 |
| Chripher | it hangs druing boot up and only show artifacts | 07:49 |
| dotblank | campassi, did you try copying the encoded video from the bad to the good? | 07:49 |
| dotblank | campassi, and see if the video has artifacts | 07:49 |
| campassi | i did, and even checked md5sums dotblank | 07:50 |
| dotblank | campassi, and they were equal? | 07:50 |
| campassi | exactly the same | 07:50 |
| Jon_ | Flannel: ok, i'll take your word for it, would you possibly be able to tell me the outcome of telling it to install in the wrong place? | 07:51 |
| dotblank | campassi, and you played the video on the good laptop with the file encoded on the bad and it has no artifacts? | 07:51 |
| campassi | i didn't try that, no | 07:51 |
| Flannel | Jon_: Nothing horrible would happen. You'd have to wind up reinstalling it to the right place later most likely. And assuming you didn't install it to /dev/sda, you won't have to worry about wiping that out | 07:52 |
| campassi | but, assuming there were still problems then, any idea if it could be a hardware problem? | 07:52 |
| Jon_ | Flannel: alright, selecting continue..... cross your fingers | 07:52 |
| Loshki | campassi: I wonder if the codecs are the same on the two machines? They're often installed separately to the application. Not sure how to check though. Maybe in the application logs..? | 07:52 |
| ejv | !cod4 | 07:53 |
| dotblank | campassi, it seems (to me at least) that you video driver or actual hardware is causing the artifacts during playback.. the resulting encoded file should not have any inside it | 07:53 |
| campassi | well, I tried Debian squeeze and ubuntu 10.04 on this machine and had the same problems in both | 07:53 |
| ejv | !callofduty4 | 07:53 |

| ejv | hmm | 07:53 |
| Jon_ | requesting system reboot............ | 07:53 |
| campassi | hmm, i'll check the output .avi | 07:53 |
| jbuncher | Loshki, I found a workaround to the Plymouth bug I mentioned earlier : https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/plymouth/+bug/540801/comments/29 . It supposedly slows down the boot though. The underlying problem is that hte graphics drivers take longer to load that it takes to check and mount hte filesystem, so there's no reason to load the splash as we can already load X. | 07:53 |
| dotblank | campassi, seems like a hardware thing or driver issue. Could even be overheating | 07:53 |
| Loshki | campassi: Luke dotblank, I'd like to know how the bad encoding plays on the good laptop... | 07:53 |
| Loshki | campassi: Luke -> Like | 07:53 |
| Loshki | jbuncher: Wow, good detective work! | 07:54 |
| lsemple | hey when I am using the partition manager, trying to make 2 partitions on one drive, one mounts to / the other to /home.. should the /home partition (sda3) be a primary or logical partition ? | 07:54 |
| jbuncher | Loshki, I just finally was able to google the right few words and find it in launchpad. I've even searched in launchpad directly before and haven't found that, so I dunno. Got lucky this time. | 07:55 |
| Loshki | lsemple: doesn't matter.... | 07:55 |
| Moral_ | Does anyone know the name of gnome's cpu scaling program? | 07:55 |
| dotblank | lsemple, it really doesn't matter nowadays | 07:55 |
| Jon_ | how long should it take a system to reboot after installation completes, "sending SIGKILL to all processes, Requesting system reboot, [6423.033441] Restarting system.? | 07:55 |
| campassi | the actual created file has errors, and the temp is in the 40's though it got into the 90's for the first time a few weeks ago. | 07:55 |
| lsemple | ok Loshki its not going to screw up grub ? | 07:55 |
| Loshki | jbuncher: there's an art to making google cough up the right stuff... | 07:55 |
| dotblank | campassi, wow.. thats wierd.. and the md5 sum was the same.. how? | 07:55 |
| campassi | the bad encoding has horrible artifacts on the good laptop | 07:55 |
| Loshki | lsemple: grub and booting don't look at /home, they only care about /boot... | 07:56 |
| campassi | well, the md5 i checked was from the original file that wasn't encoded yet | 07:56 |
| jbuncher | Loshki, definitely. You mentioned you were a hardy user earlier (or at least, you have a Hardy install). Have you run into a bug streaming from last.fm from within rhythymbox? | 07:56 |

| viliny_ | Jon, force the computer to power off and see if it starts without problems? | 08:07 |
| viliny_ | My boxes sometimes fail to power off by themselves | 08:07 |
| Jon_ | guess that's the only thing TO do, tryin it out | 08:07 |
| aboSamoor | I am trying to make 802.1x connection, once I enable the security option in the nm-connection-editor the apply button get disabled, any idea ? | 08:07 |
| scunizi | Jon_: ah.. ok.. have you tried enter? if enter doesn't work then you're only left with the reset button on the computer or the power button.. | 08:07 |
| viliny_ | Jon_: im surprised you didn't try it already :P | 08:07 |

| Jon_ | sooo, yea, after attempting for 6 hours today, and several hours yesterday, to install 10.04 on my 27" iMac, on restarting after the text based installer completed, and holding option to show available systems to start from, i get only Mac OS X to start from, Ubuntu doesn't exist on my system. Any idea when, at all, even a harzarded guess, the live CD will be able to properly install on this hardware? | 08:09 |

| jbuncher | Loshki, I'm off, thanks again for all of your help earlier. I was indeed getting the root= option in the kernel line wrong. | 08:10 |
| Akkernight | hello. I had to reinstall WinXP and now Longhorn has taken over GRUB, so I booted the LiveCD and tried update-grub, but then it there was a probe error. can anyone help_ | 08:10 |
| Loshki | jbuncher: glad it got sorted... | 08:10 |
| GhostWolf | ok thanks for those who have helped me, im leaving if i have more problems i'll come back thanks all bye | 08:10 |
| Jon_ | no guesses huh? alright, thanks for everything then. | 08:10 |
| dotblank | aboSamoor, hmm which version of ubuntu is this? | 08:11 |
| aboSamoor | dotblank: I have an old computer that was upgraded and it connects without problems, which mean that there is no problem in the network | 08:11 |
| aboSamoor | dotblank: 10.04 | 08:11 |
| Jon_ | well keep this fact in mind, support folks, Ubuntu 10.04 does NOT install on 27" iMacs | 08:12 |
| aboSamoor | dotblank: I think the problem is in the UI that it disables the apply button for no reason, do you have any idea how can I add a connection not using the interface ? | 08:12 |
| dotblank | aboSamoor, what you could do is manually modify the entry in gconf-editor and copy the settings from the laptop that works | 08:12 |
| viliny_ | Jon_: you need to fix the bootloader and make sure you have a proper ubuntu partition on the system via some partition tool | 08:12 |
| dotch | hi all, im having a problem with ubuntu 10.04, with the window decorator and with windows effects, when i set them to "normal", or "advanced", it reverts to "none" when i reboot, any assistance? the window manager also boots without the close, minimise and maximise buttons, | 08:12 |
| lsemple | dibblego: http://code.google.com/p/rhythmbox-shoutcast/ | 08:12 |

| Loshki | Jon_: please file a bug about it on launchpad... | 08:12 |
| dibblego | lsemple, thanks, any idea how to install it? | 08:12 |
| viliny_ | Why is the the screen size relevant to your machine anyway? Some clever apple system to distinguish a computer from another? | 08:12 |
| Jon_ | viliny_: if someone would tell me how to fix the bootloader, i'd be more than happy to attempt it | 08:12 |
| lsemple | dibblego: one sec | 08:13 |
| viliny_ | have you tried installing grub manually Jon_ ? | 08:13 |
| Jon_ | viliny_: apparently it has something to do with the bundled ati drivers, my system runs 2550x1440 native | 08:13 |
| Jon_ | viliny_: please tell me how to do so, i attempted to once | 08:13 |

| campassi | well, the video encoded on the good machine plays just fine on the *bad* machine | 08:14 |
| Loshki | jbuncher: Jon_: I know, sickening isn't it... | 08:14 |
| Jon_ | jbuncher: right now it's only inducing nausea | 08:14 |
| campassi | must be a software issue I suppose | 08:14 |
| viliny_ | Jon_: Well, since you are running apple hardware id really not like to give you any advice that will end up messing up your whole system... but what you most likely need is to run a install-grub either with the ubuntu livecd or with supergrub livecd which you can find online | 08:14 |
| dotblank | campassi, seems like it | 08:14 |
| dotblank | campassi, could be a bug | 08:14 |
| Xgates | hey guys | 08:15 |
| dotblank | Xgates, hey | 08:15 |
| jbuncher | Jon_ I wish I could help, but I have zero experience with Ubuntu and Apple hardware. | 08:15 |
| viliny_ | yeah... same... | 08:15 |
| Jon_ | ok, i just ran a diskutil list on my mac system, and it shows /dev/disk0 with #, 0, 1, 2, 3, and 3 being the microsoft basic data, IE< bootcamp partition i was installing Ubuntu on | 08:15 |
| Jon_ | earlier, Flannel told me to install the grub boot loader onto sda3 | 08:16 |
| Xgates | say I did a custom install of Ubuntu with only LXDE and I don't have usplash installed but when I reboot I get that magenta looking splash you see after you log out the desktop, and I want to remove that and disable frame buffer, how can I do these? | 08:16 |
| Jon_ | can anyon confirm if that was correct to do, and if it wasn't, where to start tryin to figure out where i , we, went wrong | 08:16 |
| aboSamoor | dotblank: thanks very much, I was searching for the options in some file in the home folder. :) | 08:16 |
| dotblank | Xgates im sure you can uninstall that package or modify the config | 08:16 |
| viliny_ | isn't /dev/disk0 just a location where a physical HD has been mounted already? | 08:16 |
| Jon_ | disk0s3 is the identifier in terminal | 08:16 |
| Loshki | Jon_: if I were you, I think I'd run ubuntu in a virtual machine instead... | 08:16 |
| Xgates | dotblank: what pkg? | 08:17 |
| Jon_ | yes, i believe so | 08:17 |
| dotblank | aboSamoor, because it uses gconf you can copy the xml file from the .gconf folders | 08:17 |
| sacto | hola | 08:17 |
| hd1 | is there a text mode installer for eeebuntu? | 08:18 |
| dotblank | Xgates, I havn't installed 10.04 yet but is it using xplash usplash or plymoth | 08:18 |
| Loshki | !es | sacto | 08:18 |

| aboSamoor | dotblank: no networking under system in gconf-editor ! | 08:18 |
| lsemple | dibblego: one sec for that | 08:18 |
| Xgates | dotblank: ok let me check and see if I have any of those other ones | 08:18 |
| lsemple | just gotta get it from my HD | 08:18 |
| dibblego | lsemple, yeah I'm working on it | 08:18 |
| Jon_ | since my intial attempt at installing 10.04 failed , apparently with tthe GRUB bootloader installation, can anyone tell me where to beging, once booted from the optical disc again, to install it properly? | 08:18 |
| dotblank | aboSamoor, uh oh that doesn't sound good | 08:18 |
| jaim | ? | 08:18 |
| jaim | ? | 08:18 |
| dotblank | Xgates, you can also append a kernel option with nosplash to disable the splash i think | 08:19 |
| lsemple | yeah Rhythmbox is by far the best player | 08:19 |
| koskos | i just did a fresh install of 10.04, vista would not start and entered "Acer" recovery mode. I cancelled and now my "grub" is gone and gparted on recovery disk claims my ext4 partitions are now unallocated. | 08:19 |
| lsemple | most options | 08:19 |
| dotblank | aboSamoor, do you have any created connections? | 08:19 |
| lsemple | almost as nice as the origional Amarok | 08:19 |
| Viking667 | hm. Now, what the heck do I do to get pulseaudio to use alsa? | 08:20 |
| airtonix | koskos, hooray for acer and vista (hip hip. hooray!) | 08:20 |
| aboSamoor | dotblank: yep, default one without security options | 08:20 |
| Xgates | dotblank: plymouth is the only one that's installed | 08:20 |
| Viking667 | just upgraded to 10.04, and I have no sound unless I start up esd, funnily enough. | 08:20 |
| koskos | airtonix: yeah, they're awesome | 08:20 |
| Jon_ | so without any suggestions, i've started the Rescue mode...... | 08:20 |
| Xgates | dotblank: hey do you know the name of that janitor app that looks for files not needed? | 08:21 |
| dibblego | lsemple, got it going, thanks | 08:21 |
| Xgates | forgot the name...' | 08:21 |
| dotblank | aboSamoor, try adding another one and see if it creates it.. also you don't happen to be running this as super user? | 08:21 |
| Viking667 | hmm. Janitor? | 08:21 |
| dotblank | Xgates, janitor? | 08:21 |
| Loshki | Viking667: I had good luck with the 'nosound' section in here: http://www.unixmen.com/linux-tutorials/937-things-to-do-after-installing-ubuntu-1004-lts-lucid-lynx | 08:21 |

| Xgates | sar@localhost:~$ aptitude show janitor | 08:22 |
| Xgates | E: Unable to locate package janitor | 08:22 |
| Jon_ | can anyone tell me how to properly install the GRUB bootloader after a seemingly failed initial install of it? | 08:22 |
| airtonix | Xgates, welcome to my first lesson with apt-caches search | 08:22 |
| Loshki | Jon_: grub2 is a bitch. I'd try 8.04 instead, frankly | 08:22 |
| Jon_ | Loshki: what's grub2? | 08:22 |
| airtonix | Xgates, look out for my next lesson with alacarte and finding obtuse program names | 08:22 |
| Xgates | airtonix: yeah yeah I know it already I was just using aptitude for the moment, I'm not a complete noob | 08:22 |
| Xgates | LOL | 08:22 |
| dotblank | Xgates, how about computer-janitor-gtk | 08:22 |
| th0r | Jon_: http://lifehacker.com/256395/how-to-install-ubuntu-linux-on-a-mac | 08:22 |
| Xgates | dotblank: let me search apt | 08:22 |
| Jon_ | th0r: i appreciate the link, but that's no help in my case | 08:23 |
| campassi | i still can't figure out why vlc displays all of the artifacts from the DVD image. could vlc and the encoder be using the same buggy library to do something? | 08:23 |
| aboSamoor | dotblank: thanks :), it works after the first connection, I think because the first one was made automatically :) | 08:23 |
| Jon_ | th0r: i camehere as a last resort | 08:23 |
| dotblank | aboSamoor, glad I could help | 08:23 |
| esperegu_ | how to get the kernel source? (not just headers) | 08:23 |
| th0r | Jon_: did you install Parallels | 08:23 |
| Loshki | Jon_: grub2 is the new grub bootloader, introduced in 9.X (I forget which exactly). Grub1 was much simpler to configure (and, some say, more reliable). | 08:23 |
| Xgates | airtonix: oh and here's my lesson pipe the info into a LOG so you don't spew it all across the console ---> apt-cache search foo > log | 08:24 |
| airtonix | Xgates, thats pro! | 08:24 |
| * airtonix writes it down | 08:24 | |
| Loshki | campassi: different version of codecs would still be my guess | 08:24 |
| Xgates | dotblank: yeah that's it -- computer-janitor-gtk | 08:24 |
| Xgates | airtonix: you didn't know that one? ;) | 08:24 |
| Madpilot | pipes and redirects are your friends in the terminal. You can do very cool things with them... | 08:24 |
| Jon_ | i'm guessing my problem is not knowing exactly where to tell it to install the GRUB | 08:24 |
| airtonix | Xgates, but i usually just use "less" or "more" | 08:24 |
| Xgates | ahh | 08:25 |
| Xgates | I like the > :) | 08:25 |
| Jon_ | right now, in rescue mode, i'm at the Reinstall GRUB boot loader option.... | 08:25 |
| progesterone | Question: I'm trying to install Java on Ubuntu 10.04. When I type sudo add-apt-repository “deb http://archive.canonical.com/ lucid partner”, the error said "need a repository as argument". Why? | 08:25 |
| Loshki | Jon_: in a normal system, grub is installed into the mbr of the disk, and expects to find a /boot directory with kernels etc. in it. Lord knows what overwriting your apple mbr might do to your system... | 08:26 |
| airtonix | progesterone, add-apt-repository only accepts launchpad ppa repos | 08:26 |
| airtonix | (i think) | 08:26 |
| === fishonee` is now known as fishoneeyed | ||
| Jon_ | alright, where might I look at a future time to find out if Ubuntu is installable on my hardware? | 08:26 |
| Xgates | brb | 08:26 |
| dotblank | progesterone, why don'y you add it to /etc/apt/sources? | 08:27 |
| Jon_ | Ubuntu.com suggests that it currently IS possible, however, it's wrong. | 08:27 |
| * UT8F Ryts | 08:27 | |
| Flannel | Jon_: No, it's not wrong. But no one currently awake knows how to do it with bootcamp. | 08:27 |
| Loshki | Jon_: if you open a bug in launchpad, you'll be notified of status changes. Otherwise, google I suppose... | 08:27 |
| maco | Jon_: ubuntuforums.org maybe? | 08:28 |
| airtonix | progesterone, best practice is to create a file in /etc/sources.list.d/your-custom-repo-name.list , a file for each custom repo. files in this folder are automatically read by apt-get update. | 08:28 |
| esperegu_ | how to get the kernel source? (not just headers) | 08:28 |
| Jon_ | bootcamp simply partitions the harddrive and formats the partition in FAT32.... in essence, making it a windows disc. | 08:28 |
| maco | Jon_: the forums dont have you depending on someone being online *right now* | 08:28 |
| Flannel | Jon_: Someone who knows how bootcamp/osx/etc works can help you. Your best course of action is to keep asking here every so often, and to ask elsewhere while you wait | 08:28 |
| progesterone | airtonix dotblank Can you please explain me in dummy way? | 08:28 |
| airtonix | progesterone, this is part of what add-apt-repository does. | 08:28 |
| progesterone | airtonix dotblank I'm kind of newbie. | 08:28 |
| esperegu_ | it needs to be in /lib/modules/2.6.27-17-generic/source | 08:28 |
| dotblank | progesterone, can you goto System->administration->software sources | 08:29 |
| Jon_ | Flannel: you know every step i've taken thus far, do you have any input that might salvage whatever went wrong? | 08:29 |
| Jon_ | on the rescue attempt, i attempted to reinstall the GRUB on /dev/sda3 and got a fatal error, and a prompt to go back, which i did, and is where i'm sitting now | 08:30 |
| progesterone | dotblank And then? | 08:30 |
| Flannel | Jon_: I have *zero* clue as to how Macs do their stuff, so no, I don't know how you'd get it to boot properly. Someone who is familiar with that, on the otherhand, could probably solve your problem within five minutes. | 08:30 |
| airtonix | progesterone, 1) highlight and copy this text : “deb http://archive.canonical.com/ lucid partner” 2) in terminal type : sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list.d/canonical-partner.list 3) press ctrl shift v to paste the text. 4) press ctrl + o to save file 5) exit 6) type : sudo apt-get update | 08:30 |
| dotblank | progesterone, there should be a third party tab and one of the entries should be cononical's partner repo | 08:30 |
| ptahkindoid | I'm not sure if I'm in the right forum to ask a question about making the fan start up sooner. | 08:30 |
| Jon_ | Flannel: i'll ask again, do you know of anyone here who is familiar with macs? (although, one fellow here suggested earlier that macs partitioned with bootcamp are treated like ANy other system) | 08:31 |
| capi | español | 08:31 |
| capi | ¿ | 08:31 |
| campassi | ptahkindoid what kind of laptop? | 08:31 |
| airtonix | progesterone, or you can do that. but the third party sources tab will dump deb libnes in the main sources.list file. | 08:31 |
| ptahkindoid | MacBook 2.1 | 08:31 |
| campassi | ah, I could help you if it was a thinkpad. :-/ | 08:31 |
| Xgates | dotblank: so do you know if it's safe to uninstall plymouth? | 08:31 |

| dotblank | ennui, you could try changing your mirror | 08:32 |
| Flannel | Jon_: Your best bet is to ask in the forums, and to repost your question (a summary, all on one line so people can read and get an idea what your issue is) every so often (30 minutes would be a good frequency). Sooner or later, someone will be awake who can help you (or someone on the forums will help you) | 08:32 |

| Madpilot | Viking667, must admit I haven't a clue what your string of commands would do... | 08:41 |
| airtonix | Chetic, did you provide the chat room with the output of : lspci | grep broadcom ? | 08:41 |
| esperegu_ | maco: they have? | 08:41 |
| maco | esperegu_: they usually are when EOL happens... dunno if its been done yet | 08:42 |
| jolaren | I updated my mythbuntu frontend/backend to 10.04 and now when attempting to boot I get this usplash:366 freeing invalied memtype fff....... | 08:42 |
| jolaren | Whats wrong | 08:42 |
| sergiu14 | hi, does ubuntu have a alternative for fedora's debuginfo-install? | 08:42 |
| Elwell | hey folks, the notification stuff in 10.04 -- is that using libnotify (trying to alter a long CLI app so that it includes notification output too) | 08:42 |
| airtonix | Chetic, sorry thats : lspci | grep Broadcom (note uppercase B) | 08:42 |
| esperegu_ | maco: well. I am using linuxmce which is based on 8.10 and it's not ever released yet.... still in beta | 08:42 |
| maco | Elwell: its notify-osd | 08:42 |
| Chetic | airtonix: 06:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4312 802.11b/g (rev 01) | 08:42 |
| Elwell | maco: ta | 08:43 |
| maco | Elwell: but i think notify-send and suchlike should still work | 08:43 |
| dotblank | esperegu_, I still have nightmares about linux mce | 08:43 |
| esperegu_ | dotblank: tell me =) | 08:43 |
| LSD|Ninja | Chetic: best way to deal with those is rip them out and replace them | 08:43 |
| maco | esperegu_: criminey they took so long to finish it theyve gone all the way past where it ceased to exist? | 08:43 |
| Elwell | maco: was trying to work out which from 'apt-cache search notify' (not easy) | 08:43 |
| Viking667 | Madpilot: yeesh. "su -" change to root user. "xauth merge /home/myuser/.Xauthority" reads the .Xauthority for the user running X at the moment, and merges it with root's .Xauthority file. export DISPLAY... I don't need to explain that one, do I? | 08:43 |
| Chetic | LSD|Ninja: haha, I had a working driver before installing 10.04 though | 08:43 |
| airtonix | Chetic, sorry thats : lspci -nn | grep Broadcom (note uppercase B & -nn) | 08:43 |
| Viking667 | and when "run-this-command" gets asked for a valid auth cookie, it's provided from root's .Xauthority cache. | 08:44 |
| airtonix | Chetic, need thta machine code that all devices have. | 08:44 |
| dotblank | esperegu_, I can't really tell you how many nights and days ive spent tinkering with that system | 08:44 |
| sergiu14 | hello, is there a way to step into libc with gdb? (I guess there is , but how ) :D | 08:44 |
| esperegu_ | dotblank: me 2 ;-) | 08:44 |
| Viking667 | sergiu14: build static, | 08:44 |
| Viking667 | or build with a unstripped libc, which is freaking HUGE!!! | 08:45 |
| airtonix | Chetic, ie here is mine : 03:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Broadcom Corporation BCM4312 802.11b/g [14e4:4315] (rev 01) | 08:45 |
| LSD|Ninja | Chetic: I'm avoiding 10.04 on anything important for that specific reason, heh. Seriously though, even when you get them working the Broadcoms aren't anything to right home about. Intel or Atheros are better, but more expensive which is why all the cheap lappies have them. | 08:45 |
| dotblank | esperegu_, You must be one brave soul. How functional do you have it/ | 08:45 |
| Chetic | airtonix: You mean [14e4:4315]? | 08:45 |
| airtonix | Chetic, yes is your wifi card also having intergrated bluetooth ? | 08:45 |
| grandrew | sergiu14, /j #gcc -- you need not the unstripped but the -g version of libc | 08:45 |
| Chetic | airtonix: that's a different card (had to buy it separately) | 08:45 |
| esperegu_ | dotblank: not =) | 08:45 |
| ennui | dotblank, how do I find the address to add? I tried searching launchpad. can I add it with a name for add-apt-repository? just not sure what ppa: | 08:45 |
| Viking667 | grandrew: ahh, sorry. | 08:45 |
| dotblank | esperegu_, lol | 08:46 |
| sergiu14 | grandrew wich is? | 08:46 |
| Viking667 | I thought at least an unstripped would have allowed symbol-level stepping... | 08:46 |
| airtonix | Chetic, ok my wifi and bluetooth are on the same device. what is the problem you are having with B43 ? | 08:46 |
| sergiu14 | i have libc6 , libc6-dev and libc6-dbg | 08:46 |
| esperegu_ | dotblank: my nas is lagging | 08:46 |
| sergiu14 | none of them contain libc source files | 08:46 |
| Viking667 | libc6-dbg | 08:46 |
| sergiu14 | so I can step inside it | 08:46 |
| esperegu_ | dotblank: dvb not working | 08:46 |
| Viking667 | no, you install the source for glibc as well. | 08:46 |
| esperegu_ | dotblank: and a lot of other issues | 08:47 |
| Chetic | airtonix: can't really use the card.. I do modprobe b43 but nothing happens | 08:47 |
| sergiu14 | which package? | 08:47 |
| Viking667 | and that, I don't know where you get it from, though I know it's around. | 08:47 |
| sergiu14 | how? | 08:47 |
| dotblank | esperegu_, I got it to work with stored media and pluto and a remote | 08:47 |
| * Viking667 shrugs | 08:47 | |
| Danne^_ | Hi! | 08:47 |
| === Danne^_ is now known as Danne- | ||
| dotblank | esperegu_, with a core server and thin client set up | 08:47 |
| airtonix | Chetic, you need to check your moduels blacklist. ensure the other two drivers that can be used for the card are blacklist and b43 is not | 08:47 |
| sergiu14 | libc6-dbg I have it installed (doesnt contain C files) | 08:47 |
| esperegu_ | dotblank: well. I have a hybrid and 2 md's and a nas. | 08:47 |
| sergiu14 | just shared objects... | 08:47 |
| Danne- | i need to enable USB in virtualbox in ubuntu 10.04 all the devices is greyed out, anyone has a fix for this? | 08:47 |
| Viking667 | sergiu14: do an apt-cache search glibc | less | 08:48 |
| Chetic | airtonix: ah that must be it! but how do I do that? | 08:48 |
| iceroot | Danne-: only the nonfree-version can do it | 08:48 |
| Viking667 | you _may_ find some sourcecode there | 08:48 |
| esperegu_ | dotblank: but smb performance seems to be an issue on FreeNAS | 08:48 |
| dotblank | esperegu_, thats thing is so complicated.. I gave up after a month | 08:48 |
| airtonix | Chetic, in the directory : /etc/modprobe.d/ you will see files starting with "blacklist" | 08:48 |
| dotblank | esperegu_, I even built linux mce from source | 08:49 |
| esperegu_ | dotblank: =). the idea is to make it pnp but now you have to be a geek to use it ;-) | 08:49 |
| airtonix | Chetic, wait are you using 10.04 ? | 08:49 |
| grandrew | sergiu14, it's like apt-get source libc6 | 08:49 |
| airtonix | Chetic, does the file : /etc/modprobe.d/b43.conf exist ? | 08:49 |
| Nextor | Hi all! | 08:50 |
| paul__ | I made a little script that mounts an sshfs drive, and I want it to run right when I log into my account, so I went System -> Preferences -> Startup Applications | 08:50 |
| paul__ | but it doesn't work | 08:50 |
| dotblank | esperegu_, Its just insaine.. I think it would be much better served if more focus was on pluto and not the entire repo and its hundreds of dependencies. | 08:50 |
| Chetic | airtonix: yes I'm on 10.04 and the driver should be supported. no I don't have a b43.conf file | 08:50 |
| airtonix | Chetic, sudo touch /etc/modprobe.d/b43.conf && echo "options b43 pio=1 qos=0" | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/b43.conf | 08:50 |
| === ben__546 is now known as oddy | ||
| airtonix | Chetic, hopefully that will work for you. | 08:51 |
| airtonix | Chetic, you have to reboot after that change. or sudo rmmod b43 && sudo modprobe b43 pio=1 qos=0 | 08:51 |
| oddy | hi. anyone been able to get tomboy or evolution to U1 sync with the latest release? | 08:51 |
| Psilocybin_Elf | I installed Ubuntu 10.4 on my friend's HP 1020 Mini Netbook yesterday but it won't let me connect to a wireless network, | 08:51 |
| Psilocybin_Elf | even though it detects Bluetooth & the network card itself..any ideas ppl? Thanx. | 08:51 |
| airtonix | Chetic, any reason why you're not using ndiswrapper ? | 08:51 |
| oddy | Psilocybin_Elf: Out of interest, are you using WEP or WPA encryption? | 08:52 |
| pepee | 'cause ndiswapper is so 2005 | 08:52 |
| pepee | xD | 08:52 |
| airtonix | pepee, your point is ? | 08:52 |
| oddy | peepe: lol, but it works | 08:52 |
| Psilocybin_Elf | WEP I think | 08:52 |
| Psilocybin_Elf | Is there any way to find out? | 08:52 |
| pepee | airtonix, there exists modules for near all wifi adapters out there | 08:53 |
| pepee | you have to find the way to get it running | 08:53 |
| oddy | Psilocybin_Elf: Not sure... | 08:53 |
| Chetic | airtonix: I honestly have no idea what ndiswrapper is. I just thought I'd get the driver for my broken wlan to work | 08:53 |
| airtonix | pepee, grats! you can help Chetic getting it installed with one click then ! | 08:53 |
| pepee | yah, no problem | 08:53 |
| pepee | chip? | 08:53 |
| Psilocybin_Elf | It detects the card, just won't let me connect to any networks | 08:54 |
| oddy | Chetic: ndiswrapper essentially "wraps" a windows driver into the linux kernel to make it work. | 08:54 |
| dotblank | I find the best way is to build linux wireless from source and make my own modules | 08:54 |
| oddy | Psilocybin_Elf: Hate to ask the obvious, but is it disabled? | 08:54 |
| lilleman | I'm trying to file a bug on the gnome-screenshot, but it says it cannot find the package... thats a bug in the bug reporting tool, right? ;) | 08:54 |
| pepee | Chetic, lspci | grep -i "network|wireless" | 08:54 |
| airtonix | Psilocybin_Elf, oddy meant does the wifi access point you're trying to connect to use wep or wpa | 08:54 |
| oddy | lilleman: try to file a bug on that :P | 08:54 |
| lilleman | oddy: :D | 08:55 |

| ubottu | paul__: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) | 09:09 |
| paul__ | joshuaL: I'm trying to umount a drive | 09:09 |
| Danne- | anyone that can recommend a good mp3 player in 10.04?? | 09:09 |

| dotblank | ahaios, which version of ubuntu are you using | 09:14 |
| pepee | jbowtie, anyway, if you have access to a shell, you can try reconfiguring/updating some packages | 09:14 |

| solofight | hello all, i have installed ubuntu 9.04 in my system just yesterday, i do not have a lan connection, i use usb modem (bsnl evdo) to connect to internet, i prev used wvdial for this purpose when i was using sidux, i came to know that this package is not there by default in ubuntu 9.04, so how can i start connecting to internet ? any help would be very much appreciated | 09:15 |
| pepee | jbowtie, you can get a shell editting the kernel line in grub | 09:15 |
| dotblank | Harbringer, No I think the commercial one supports them | 09:15 |
| pepee | solofight, tried networkmanager? | 09:15 |
| sain | Does any one know the command to display gnome version? | 09:15 |
| Danne- | i have the version from their site | 09:15 |
| sain | gnome shell version? | 09:15 |
| Danne- | i need to enable it, all the devices is greyed out | 09:16 |
| solofight | pepee, i dont know which one to use in that, the wireless tab ? | 09:16 |
| cinnabarisland12 | hmmm seems that pressing ESC only brings up the 'boot windows vista option' | 09:16 |
| scunizi | Danne-: #vbox for support on vbox | 09:16 |
| pepee | solofight, sorry, I don't use NM, but IIRC it does support USB modems | 09:16 |
| dotblank | Danne-, there is documentation on setting up usb within the manual for virtualbox | 09:16 |
| jbowtie | pepee: I've done that. it simply won't boot on my hardware; kernel panic trying to find the root whether passed by UUID, dev, or label | 09:16 |

| solofight | pepee, IIRC ? | 09:17 |
| pepee | solofight, if I recall correctly | 09:17 |
| solofight | pepee, how do i access the iirc in my ubuntu 9.04 ? | 09:17 |
| pepee | jbowtie, sure it's a kernel panic? perhaps it can't mount the root FS | 09:17 |
| jbowtie | pepee: Absolutely. | 09:17 |
| pepee | jbowtie, try running another kernel | 09:17 |
| pepee | jbowtie, search "hd-media install" in google | 09:18 |
| jbowtie | pepee: It's a brand new machine, there is no other kernel. | 09:18 |
| solofight | pepee, how do i access the iirc in my ubuntu 9.04 ? | 09:18 |
| pepee | jbowtie, try the one in the alternate cd | 09:18 |
| pepee | jbowtie, don't know if it works with the desktop CD | 09:18 |
| pepee | solofight, IIRC means "if I recall correctly" | 09:19 |

| solofight | which one to use ? @ pepee ? | 09:20 |
| pepee | jbowtie, ok, can't help you, then. sorry | 09:20 |
| pepee | <pepee> solofight, sorry, I don't use NM, but IIRC it does support USB modems | 09:20 |
| pepee | solofight, google "usb modem +networkmanager ubuntu" | 09:21 |
| solofight | pepee, :( ok | 09:21 |
| pepee | surely you will find some manuals/tutorials | 09:21 |

| Harbringer | Does somebody know how to disable my touchpad when i press the button, which was made for disabling it, it's a synaptic touchpad. | 09:23 |
| jbowtie | I have to say that I've used every version of Ubuntu since Warty, Lucid is so far the worst installation experience I've had. First time I've had a complete roadblock getting stuff working. | 09:24 |
| Elwell | similar to FardadJalili - how do I re-add the chat (ubunt me?) menu? | 09:25 |
| jbowtie | On the other hand, upgrades on my existing machines went without a hitch. | 09:25 |
| pepee | jbowtie, as user, you are older than me | 09:25 |
| NoReflex | FardadJalili: AFAIK it's added automatically to the notification area when you execute nm-applet | 09:25 |
| coolman | <FardadJalili> right click on the panel ---> choose add to panel | 09:25 |
| jbowtie | pepee: Yeah, that's why it ticks me off so much when I have such an experience with an LTS. Figure I should be able to fix it. Or at least figure out what's wrong. | 09:26 |
| fist | hey, i did the update to ubuntu 10.04 and now my network printer does not work anymore .. i deleted the settings and added him again | 09:28 |

| solofight | mine is 9.04 | 09:36 |
| wildbat | tzaragotza, ext4 may be faster ~ but your call ~ | 09:36 |

| pepee | solofight, what version of ubuntu are you using? | 09:37 |
| NoReflex | FardadJalili: how exactly did you remove it? I can't seem to be able to remove network manager from notification area? does your clock (calendar) still appear in the corner? | 09:37 |

| pepee | solofight, that guide is dated "July 6, 2009", shoul apply to 9.04, too | 09:38 |

| Chripher | do I need a defrag tool? | 09:40 |
| magopian | any one here has a clue why since the upgrade my contacts aren't displaying anymore (hidden or not) in empathy and pidgin? | 09:40 |
| wildbat | !defrag | Chripher | 09:40 |
| ubottu | Chripher: The default Ubuntu filesystem (ext3) is engineered to avoid fragmentation issues in most cases, see http://linkpot.net/behead/ for a simple example on how it achieves this. | 09:40 |
| magopian | i have a msn account that used to work perfectly | 09:40 |
| solofight | pepee, see step 4 | 09:40 |
| solofight | he says install wvdial | 09:40 |
| solofight | how can i without connecting to internet | 09:40 |
| magopian | and i still can receive messages (even though the contacts look offline) and answer to them | 09:40 |
| tzaragotza | thanks wildbat! | 09:40 |
| Chripher | wildbat: I run ext4 and ntfs on another part | 09:41 |
| wildbat | tzaragotza, if you want a VERY stable fs stick with ext3 ~ if you want fast modern fs ext4 | 09:41 |
| solofight | i have done the very same procedures when i was using my laptop where i had both lan and usb connectins pepee ^^ | 09:41 |
| Chripher | wildbat: maybe not a very smart idea to defrag ntfs with linux | 09:41 |
| wildbat | Chripher, ext4 don't need defrag neither ~ | 09:41 |
| pepee | solofight, solofight you can try downloading and installing the package manually from the repo | 09:41 |
| Chripher | wildbat: what about my ntfs part | 09:41 |
| solofight | pepee, how do i ? | 09:42 |
| wildbat | Chripher, for ntfs ~ use window's defragmant tools | 09:42 |

| ubottu | seisatsu: Upstart is meant to replace the old Sys V Init system with an event-driven init model. For more information please see: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/ | 09:45 |
| maco | seisatsu: there's no tool for reconfiguring upstart scripts yet though (google summer of code project) so i think you have to edit the upstart scripts yourself, the lines that list what runlevels to start/stop on | 09:46 |

| solofight | Gnea, yes | 09:51 |
| Gnea | coz_: nvidia drivers have been packaged and are to be installed from the repository, not nvidia.com | 09:51 |
| Gnea | coz_: well, that's not something we support. | 09:51 |
| arand | beatpanic: Is compiz enabled? | 09:52 |
| Trystero | wildbat, Pref => Sounds has sound theme set to "No sounds" | 09:52 |
| beatpanic | arand, yes | 09:52 |

| solofight | pepee, why ? is it required ? | 09:52 |
| pepee | solofight, err, installing 10.04? | 09:52 |
| Gnea | coz_: good luck :) | 09:52 |
| Trystero | is there another prefs setting that might be overriding that one? | 09:52 |
| solofight | pepee, i already have screwed my windows as well as linux mbr | 09:52 |

| pepee | solofight, grub is supposed to repair that problems | 09:53 |
| solofight | how doi know what are the dependencies for wvdial package ? | 09:53 |
| beatpanic | arand, just installing now that package :) | 09:53 |
| pepee | solofight, look in the website | 09:53 |
| Trystero | gah ... maybe I'll try rebooting a few more times =P . | 09:53 |
| coz_ | solofight, is this a package you are compiling? | 09:54 |
| arand | beatpanic: Note that it is called "scale" in compiz | 09:54 |
| pepee | solofight, "Other Packages Related to wvdial" are dependencies | 09:54 |

| Pyrokinetics | Hello guys, can someone help me with TightVNC? It won't let me control my ubuntu (i can connect, i could type inn my login passwd, but my cursor aint working) | 09:55 |
| HeTaL | Doesn't it mostly depend on the harddrive | 09:55 |
| HeTaL | ? | 09:55 |
| domjohnson | arand - there is? | 09:55 |
| beatpanic | arand, don't remember what is Super anyway | 09:55 |
| beatpanic | arand, thanks for the 'scale' tip, I was searching for 'expo' :) | 09:55 |
| arand | beatpanic: Usually it's the "windows/home" key | 09:55 |
| coz_ | Pyrokinetics, I had that issue during the development phase... I havent tried it after release however | 09:55 |
| JoshuaL | arand, mind linking that one? | 09:56 |
| beatpanic | arand, ohh ok | 09:56 |
| ennui | can anyone suggest a light book/pdf library package? | 09:56 |
| solofight | pepee, should i download i386 or amd ? | 09:56 |
| beatpanic | arand, didn't know thanks again | 09:56 |
| Pyrokinetics | coz_: so it is a bug? nothing to do : / | 09:56 |
| pepee | solofight, it depens on what version did you installed | 09:56 |
| solofight | i installed 9.04 ubuntu | 09:56 |
| solofight | so which one i need to download ? | 09:56 |
| coz_ | Pyrokinetics, I couldnt say for sure... however in the repositories I believe it was just vnc pacakges that worked but only from lucid to karmic not the other way around for some reason but as i said I have not tested this since release | 09:57 |
| pepee | solofight, it dependes on the cpu architecture... | 09:57 |
| arand | domjohnson: JoshuaL: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1343305 for example, I'm sure there are many... | 09:57 |
| pepee | solofight, well, try and download the i386 packages | 09:57 |
| solofight | mine is intel processor 4 with gigabyte board | 09:57 |
| richman | anyone know why the color range on samsung screens is off for ubuntu 10? | 09:57 |
| JoshuaL | are there any good tips to make ubuntu even faster? like installing prelink (will that still help in lucid?) | 09:58 |
| pepee | solofight, for installing them you have to click on the packages | 09:58 |
| pepee | solofight, hmm do you have the install cd? | 09:59 |
| solofight | pepee, yes | 09:59 |
| pepee | solofight, mount it and search for "i386" or "amd64" | 09:59 |
| solofight | i think mine is i386 | 10:00 |
| sillycat98 | NoReflex, are you here? | 10:00 |
| richman | is this a support channel?? | 10:01 |
| sillycat98 | kinda | 10:01 |
| pepee | solofight, ok, download the packages for i386 | 10:01 |
| sillycat98 | whatcha need richman? | 10:01 |
| wildbat | richman, yes ~ | 10:01 |
| richman | ok so: anyone know why the color range on samsung screens is off for ubuntu 10? | 10:01 |
| wildbat | richman, idk about your problem but did you get display driver installed ? | 10:02 |
| sillycat98 | no clue, you could try using a custom edid in your xorg.conf file though | 10:02 |

| juhani | Hi all, I have a bit serious problem with my work machine after upgrading to 10.04. Eclipse (which I use for developing code here at customer) now crashes after specific sequence of actions that I use a lot. I reported a bug #Bug 574275 but would need to get my work going ASAP so asking here too. | 10:05 |

| kaddi | rather uncommon question: A friend of mine sent me his minidump from a Windows PC, but I currently only have my Ubuntu OS at hand.. is there an application, that would allow me to have a look at the minidump in Ubuntu? | 10:07 |
| wesguin | I am enjoying lucid UNE no probs at all | 10:07 |
| joaopinto | juhani, don't expect a bug to be fixed ASAP, upgrades when affecting with your critical work must be planned with care, you should have kept a 9.10 partition :( | 10:07 |
| joaopinto | kaddi, define "minidump" | 10:07 |
| Sudha | !windowtitle | 10:08 |
| wildbat | kaddi, ghex | 10:08 |
| kaddi | joaopinto: it's the memory dump of a Windows OS after a BSOD (blue screen of death). It's some weird compiled format, so just looking at it with an editor is kinda useless | 10:08 |

| Sudha | !titlebar | 10:08 |
| kaddi | wildbat: will take a look thanks | 10:08 |
| juhani | joaopinto, I thought it was stable and haven't had any problems with upgrade before. Just thought someone might know a workaround for it. Probably something to do with graphics drivers I think. | 10:08 |
| domjohnson | If I get rid of Plymouth (not the city, the package), It'll still show the login-screen, right? | 10:09 |
| Sudha | how do i center the window title ?? | 10:09 |
| bobo123 | wildbat: what I really want to do is rename the files so their foldername will be a part of the filenames instead of 'PICT' | 10:09 |
| joaopinto | kaddi, I don't think a tool to check that from Linux with have much purpose :) | 10:09 |
| SirRedTooth | Cant wait till the upgrade is done. | 10:09 |

| wildbat | just do 'rename 's/searchthi/replacewiththis/' * | 10:10 |
| SirRedTooth | Going to take ages to install | 10:10 |
| taroven | Alright, this is strange... I run two soundcards (one PCI connected to speakers, one USB headset), and Ubuntu 10.04 isn't detecting either of them. | 10:10 |

| joaopinto | juhani, it is stable, it does not mean it can't introduce new problems, I use eclipse+pydev without issues | 10:11 |
| mouseover | How do I apt-get a package from an older Ubuntu repo? For example, g++-4.2 is not available in 10.04, but available in 8.10. | 10:11 |
| wesguin | mouseover you have to add the repository for that but you might end up with dependency problems | 10:12 |
| juhani | wesguin, No it's not using any proprietary hw drivers | 10:12 |
| pepee | bobo123, never used rename that way lol | 10:13 |
| mouseover | wesguin: Can I add that repo only temporarily? and after I get my package I remove the repo? | 10:13 |
| wesguin | mouseover, yes of course | 10:13 |
| bobo123 | perhaps there is a better way to do it.... I have a folder with lots of folders, that each have lots of files. now I want to flaten this structure so to speak so the foldernames is part of the filenames instead. any ideas how to do it? | 10:13 |
| wesguin | juhani, oh well it worth looking at | 10:14 |
| wildbat | bobo123, oh i get what you mean ~ use " instead of ' | 10:14 |
| pepee | bobo123, I use for, $() and `` | 10:14 |
| juhani | wesguin, that's a good tip. Will do that. Thanks | 10:14 |
| pepee | bobo123, sed, mv, awk... | 10:14 |
| bobo123 | oh | 10:14 |
| wesguin | juhani, just run the hardware drivers util and it will do a search | 10:14 |

| Stormcr0w | Hi everyone, just moved to Lucid Lynx, 10.04, fresh install on an external HD. Grub is chainloaded into from the windows bootloader. After pressing "enter" to get Ubuntu booting, there is a pause of about 30 seconds when the computer does absolutely nothing. Then, with quiet splash disabled, the text starts rolling on screen and the computer boots up within a few seconds. Any ideas? | 10:41 |
| pepee | Stormcr0w, tried reisntalling grub? | 10:42 |

| Samp | is there a way to filter the output of "ps aux" so only the desired columns show up? | 10:45 |
| Stormcr0w | pepee: have a look here for my /etc/default/grub : www.copypaste.at/1142 | 10:46 |
| Samp | I was trying to do this with cut, but cut's not the right tool here, i think, since the output of ps is spaced with spaces, not tabs | 10:46 |
| Samp | so there are an uneven number of spaces in each line. | 10:46 |

| Stormcr0w | pepee: I think I'm on a regular BIOS. I did re-install grub, I can give it another try, just for kicks. It's a bit of a pain from the live cd, because you have to make sure it does not install itself on the MBR | 10:56 |

| SmileyChris | otherwise, what on earth is the point :/ | 10:59 |
| Stormcr0w | pepee: that's not a problem, but I am not sure "sudo update-grub2" reinstalls it. It just rebuilds grub.cfg, doesn't it? | 10:59 |
| deploy_ | wildbat: No, a simple one disk setup with /boot (ext2), / (ext2) and /swap partitions. | 10:59 |

| === Chetic_ is now known as Chetlap | ||

| Cynthia | kaddi+: Just to be sure, I'll force a rehash. | 11:01 |
| descolada | cynthia: both. I assume the fact that it's greyed out points to it not even recognizing that it should be a multitouch enabled touchpad | 11:01 |

| Cynthia | varun: that's the code for the "curly apostrophe" in UTF-8 | 11:03 |
| SmileyChris | kaddi: thx | 11:03 |
| erUSUL | SmileyChris: now that i think bout it... maybe with the change to upstart we loosed the fsck logs ... | 11:03 |

| deploy_ | wildbat: Dont know how to. I booted with "set root=(hd0, 1); chainloader +1; boot" | 11:05 |
| pepee | Stormcr0w, for grub-install, something like: grub-install --no-floppy --recheck --root-directory=/dev/sda3 /dev/sda | 11:05 |
| kaddi | Cynthia: alternatively have you thought about using a flashdrive? :p | 11:05 |
| mandrew | hiya fellow citizens | 11:06 |
| wildbat | deploy_, and you boot up the menu? | 11:06 |
| Cynthia | If that helps anyone test for the presence of my problem: nVidia chipset, using nouveau from within the LiveCD (not nv!), Ubuntu 10.04 i386 GNOME, booting from the LiveCD is 100% OK until the desktop arrives, after which the error message appears: "The installer encountered an unrecoverable error. A desktop session will be started so you can investigate the problem." | 11:06 |
| Stormcr0w | pepee: is that according to my current setup? | 11:06 |
| deploy_ | wildbat: Thats boots me into Lucid. Havent seen any boot menus. | 11:06 |
| pepee | Stormcr0w, nope, it's an example | 11:06 |
| wildbat | deploy_, i think you have two grub installed ~ and the active or boot partition set to wrong one | 11:06 |
| Stormcr0w | pepee: Ah ok. | 11:06 |
| Chetlap | where is compiz supposed to be configured in a fresh 10.04 install? do I need extra packages? | 11:06 |
| Stormcr0w | pepee: goo thing I didn't copy-paste :) | 11:07 |
| kaddi | if the file is fine and the CD-burner is broken a flash drive might be a solution, given your PC can boot from a flash drive.. That's about all I can suggest at this point. Sry. | 11:07 |

| mandrew | is it possible to get a "proper" desktop environment in the UNE version of Ubuntu? | 11:07 |
| pepee | Stormcr0w, /dev/sda is the disk in which to install the bootloader, and /dev/sda3 is your ubuntu partition | 11:07 |
| pepee | Stormcr0w, btw, you have to run it with sudo: sudo grub-install ...... | 11:07 |

| mandrew | freckle ok but i cant change that in the menus then? | 11:08 |
| mandrew | i need to log out and then in? | 11:08 |
| Stormcr0w | pepee: Wouldn't do it any other way :) | 11:08 |

| wildbat | deploy_,did you check if the boot flag is on in sda1? | 11:11 |

| pepee | Stormcr0w, the tab trick works on some IRC clients, too | 11:14 |
| deploy_ | wildbat: Yes, /boot is now an empty mount point. | 11:14 |
| Cynthia | Vigo: The LiveCD I use is ubuntu-10.04-desktop-i386.iso, 699.4 MB. The alternate ISO isn't a LiveCD, it's just to install. | 11:14 |
| wildbat | deploy_, well ~ next thing i can think of is reinstall the bootloader~ | 11:15 |
| Vigo | Cynthia: Ok, had to confirm it, Thank you, looking now. | 11:15 |
| iancomings_ | how do I get to the ubuntu-manual section? | 11:15 |
| iancomings_ | channel | 11:15 |
| Cynthia | Vigo+: Testing it in a VirtualBox VM works fine. I now suspect it's either the real hardware (nVidia) causing problems, or a bad burn. | 11:16 |
| gnuskool | do you mean man pages? | 11:16 |
| iancomings_ | no the #ubuntu-manual channel | 11:16 |
| Cynthia | I'll probably open up this computer to check for dust in the CD writer. | 11:16 |
| iancomings_ | I'm working on the ubuntu-manual | 11:16 |
| wildbat | deploy_, the mbr is grub 1 i think | 11:17 |
| Pyrokinetics | Hi I got a harddrive with some outlook 2003 mails and contacts how can i extract them into my new pc? | 11:17 |
| Stormcr0w | pepee: not working, it tells me that it cannot create directory and that /dev/sdc2/boot is not a directory | 11:17 |
| deploy_ | wildbat: so just grub-install /dev/sda1? | 11:17 |
| Vigo | Cynthia: So far that is the most likely from the documents I am looking at, good call, | 11:17 |
| Stormcr0w | pepee: I've checked on Gparted, sdc2 is where Ubuntu is installed | 11:17 |
| Sam_Fisher | Howdy ya'll | 11:17 |
| pepee | Stormcr0w, sorry... | 11:18 |
| Oer | not ubuntu-manual but ubuntu-man is the channel iancomings_ | 11:18 |
| pepee | Stormcr0w, for grub-install, something like: grub-install --no-floppy --recheck --root-directory=/ /dev/sda | 11:18 |
| iancomings_ | Pyrokinetics: export them as .csv or whichever format is supported by the client your are moving to. | 11:18 |
| Vigo | Cynthia: Did the MD5 and Checksum match up? | 11:18 |
| wildbat | deploy_, sda | 11:18 |
| pepee | Stormcr0w, root = / | 11:18 |
| iancomings_ | so how do I switch to ubuntu-man? | 11:19 |
| iancomings_ | Im using XChat | 11:19 |
| wildbat | deploy_, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2#Reinstalling%20GRUB%202 | 11:19 |
| Pyrokinetics | iancomings_: yeah but how can I extract them, I only have the harddrive and its unbootable so i cant load any mail clients | 11:19 |

| iancomings_ | Pyro: can you boot using the live CD? | 11:20 |
| Stormcr0w | pepee: same error | 11:20 |
| pter | since update to ubuntu 10 i can't change the brightness(with fn keys or other ways) and suspend to disk and to ram are not working | 11:20 |

| Pyrokinetics | iancomings_: yeah I have mounted the disk so its browseable | 11:20 |
| wildbat | deploy_, crossinf finger | 11:21 |
| deploy_ | wildbat: Installation finished. No error reported. | 11:21 |
| Sam_Fisher | freckle, I empathize with you | 11:21 |
| pepee | Stormcr0w, are you running the live cd? | 11:21 |
| deploy_ | wildbat: Assume I must run update-grub again? | 11:21 |
| freckle | Sam_Fisher: *groan* | 11:21 |
| Stormcr0w | pepee: No, I am in my Ubuntu session on a terminal window | 11:21 |
| pepee | ok | 11:21 |
| wildbat | deploy_, perfered | 11:22 |

| ian__ | Pyro: can you locate the email client files? | 11:22 |
| Sam_Fisher | freckle, Ok. Go to Applications and down to internet and there it is! | 11:22 |
| Vigo | freckle: There are a few ways, one is Main Menu, other is right click the panel, Add Launcher.. | 11:22 |
| pepee | Stormcr0w, wait | 11:22 |
| coolman | anyone else having trouble with latest kernel on LUCID ??? | 11:22 |

| Pyrokinetics | ian__: no I dont know where they are | 11:23 |
| deploy_ | wildbat: Okay. Rebooting now. Won't be back either way, so thanks very much for your help! | 11:23 |
| wildbat | deploy_, goodluck | 11:23 |
| freckle | I want the indicator, i.e. the green bubble that shows when empathy is minimized | 11:23 |
| michael1982 | wat will i lose if i upgrade | 11:23 |
| freckle | it used to be there and then magically no more | 11:23 |
| pepee | Stormcr0w, run: fdisk -l | pastebinit | 11:23 |
| ian__ | Pyro: what email service do you use? Gmail? | 11:23 |
| erUSUL | freckle: right click in the panel->add to panel->indicator applet | 11:24 |
| Vigo | freckle: What Sam_Fisher said is also one way, If it is installed, just use the Add Launcher/Indicator to panel. | 11:24 |
| freckle | erUSUL: I already have that | 11:24 |
| Pyrokinetics | ian__: outlook 2003 with telenor online mail (the ISP) | 11:24 |
| michael1982 | if i upgrade to 10.4 wat will i lose | 11:24 |
| pepee | Stormcr0w, how many HDD's do you have? and where is ubuntu installed? | 11:24 |
| ian__ | OMG. That sucks | 11:24 |
| wildbat | mic you lose 9.10~@@ | 11:24 |
| Quan-Time_ | the part that says 9.10 karmu | 11:24 |
| Sam_Fisher | michael1982, do you mean data? | 11:24 |
| Stormcr0w | pepee: "You are trying to send an empty document, exiting" :) | 11:24 |
| Quan-Time_ | michael1982: i upgraded last night.. no problem | 11:25 |
| rdz | hi all. when running fluxbox, nm-applet asks whenever it is launched for the password for the network. in the console it says: " ** Message: <info> No keyring secrets found for Auto Internet/802-11-wireless-security; asking user." funny enought, under gnome it works. it seems to successfully access the keyring | 11:25 |

| Pyrokinetics | ian__: sounds promising :D | 11:25 |
| Chetlap | how do I get rid of the system beep (or terminal bell, but in all applications) ENTIRELY? it's loud as hell, even with mute | 11:25 |
| ian__ | Pyro: can you still log into the ISP mail server? | 11:25 |
| kcj1993 | hello? | 11:25 |
| H2o | hi | 11:25 |
| pepee | Stormcr0w, ? that's strange | 11:25 |
| Stormcr0w | pepee: OK, here I go. I have two internal HDs, one IDE, where windows is installed and one SATA, where nothing is installed. I have three external HDs, one where Linux and OS X is installed and another two where nothing is installed (just storage) | 11:25 |
| Pyrokinetics | ian__: yes but its emty the mails have been stored localy | 11:26 |
| freckle | so a better way to put it is the empathy icon is no longer showing in the indicator applet | 11:26 |
| H2o | yesterday, i asked, if there was a program similiar to cc cleaner to linux, and today i found it!!!! its bleachbit!!! | 11:26 |
| ian__ | is there no "all mail" location for archive emails? | 11:26 |
| SirRedTooth | I have a file system called linux-swap, on /dev/sda6 grub instalation failed during lucid lynx (on this partition) should i carry on upgrading? | 11:26 |
| Pyrokinetics | ian__: not as far I can see | 11:26 |
| Div_By_Zero | good morning. Anybody can help-me. I want to install gimp in ubuntu 10.04, but exist many errors. | 11:26 |
| Sam_Fisher | HELP! I want to navigate to a file and then copy the entire address and paste it else where. On 9.10 it was easy but not on 10.4 | 11:27 |
| `blackmk4`linux | anyone know anything about kexec | 11:27 |
| joaopinto | Div_By_Zero, just go to software center and install it | 11:27 |
| pepee | Stormcr0w, and how do you run ubuntu? do you select it from the BIOS boot options? | 11:27 |
| Sam_Fisher | freckle, can you run empathy? I bet there is a preference inside to show applet | 11:27 |
| ian__ | hmm. Im just going on what I can do with gmail. If there is anyway to get at the old emails via the ISP mail server, that would be the best bet | 11:27 |
| pepee | Stormcr0w, this is getting difficult :/ | 11:27 |
| minche | hello | 11:27 |
| freckle | yes empathy is loaded tried all the options | 11:28 |
| ian__ | The trick is to use an IMAP server | 11:28 |
| compuslaptop | i have such a big trouble with my xserver, can anyone help me?? i'm stuck in my laptop | 11:28 |
| Pyrokinetics | ian__: yeah it think its a pop3 | 11:28 |
| Stormcr0w | pepee: I have Easy BCD installed on Windows 7. I have an entry for Ubuntu there. When the pc boots, it takes me to the windows bootloader. If I select Linux, then it chainloads on to GRUB 2 | 11:28 |
| kcj1993 | do I have to ask to ask so I can get help? | 11:28 |
| ian__ | see if they have settings for IMAP | 11:28 |
| Vigo | Div_By_Zero: What joaopinto said is what I would do, or use Synaptic. | 11:28 |
| erUSUL | !ask | 11:28 |
| ubottu | Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 11:28 |
| ian__ | if they do, you may have access to all your previous emails | 11:28 |
| pepee | Stormcr0w, oh, I see... | 11:28 |
| kcj1993 | I built and installed sl-modem-source with module-assistant and my modem still doesn't work | 11:28 |

| Stormcr0w | pepee: Used to work just fine up to 9.04 | 11:29 |
| Sam_Fisher | Div_By_Zero, My Math brain is freaking out with your idea of dividing by zero! Install Gimp with synaptic | 11:29 |
| compuslaptop | anyone know anything about bloody xserver issues? :-S | 11:29 |
| Sam_Fisher | Div_By_Zero, in synaptic choose uninstall then reinatall | 11:29 |

| Pyrokinetics | ian__: bah, the guy im doing this for can't remember his information anymore so i cant login to the webmail :/ | 11:30 |
| Vigo | Div_By_Zero: Is it a fresh install of the package, i.e. Did you remove it then install from the Ubuntu Repositories? | 11:30 |
| pepee | Stormcr0w, and what do you wanna do? install grub and edit the boot options? | 11:30 |
| Div_By_Zero | Sam_Fisher, you are use ubuntu 10.04? | 11:30 |
| Sam_Fisher | freckle, sorry to say. synaptic uninstall and reinstall | 11:30 |
| Chetlap | how do I get rid of the system beep (or terminal bell, but in all applications) ENTIRELY? it's loud as hell, even with mute | 11:30 |
| ian__ | Pyro: that sucks balls | 11:30 |
| Sam_Fisher | Div_By_Zero, yes 2 days | 11:30 |
| freckle | Sam_Fisher: will give it a go | 11:30 |
| ian__ | Tell him if he cant remember, He is screwed | 11:31 |
| Stormcr0w | pepee: I want to stop having to wait 30-40 seconds for the pc to start loading after I select Ubuntu from GRUB. | 11:31 |
| `blackmk4`linux | does anyone know how i can dis-upgrade and do a kexec so i don't have to reboot | 11:31 |
| Div_By_Zero | Sam_Fisher, try install. | 11:31 |
| Pyrokinetics | ian__: yeah the best part is that his slaying me for it cause i reinstalled his computer and the mail backup i did doesnt work | 11:31 |
| erUSUL | Chetlap: can you tell the output of « grep pcsp /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf » | 11:31 |
| ian__ | oh wait... do you have Wine installed? | 11:31 |
| Sam_Fisher | Chetlap, 9.10 or 10.4? | 11:31 |
| Div_By_Zero | Sam_Fisher, try to install. | 11:31 |
| * jhaig bites the (10.04) bullet. | 11:31 | |
| GodricBrutus | it seems that servers and apps like vlc and musicbrainz picard use tango and clearlooks classic as their themes. i wonder when/if that is ever going to change, and what they would consider as a new 'default' theme | 11:31 |
| Chetlap | Sam_Fisher, 10.04 | 11:31 |
| Div_By_Zero | 10.4 (gimp in to 10.4) | 11:31 |

| Stormcr0w | pepee: I am not sure if reinstalling Grub will achieve that. It was your recommendation :) | 11:32 |
| pepee | Stormcr0w, well, best is to not touch grub, your system configs are too complicated | 11:32 |
| kraut | is it possible to set the "close" "minimize" ... buttons of the window from left to right? | 11:32 |
| Pyrokinetics | ian__: im trying to boot the old harddrive on a xp computer now will a fixmbr in recover work? | 11:32 |
| Chetlap | erUSUL, blacklist snd_pcsp and blacklist pcspkr | 11:32 |

| nikhil_ | can someone please help me with a modem which used to show up under | 11:32 |
| nikhil_ | Karmic, but now does not under lucid | 11:32 |
| Sam_Fisher | Chetlap, I believe there is a direct preference now so no secret commands. Now to recall where it is | 11:32 |
| ian__ | it might but I was thinking of trying to run outlook via Wine off the old HDD | 11:32 |
| Stormcr0w | pepee: Break it? how? | 11:33 |
| Vigo | Stormcr0w: Is your layout like sda1, sdb and so on on the slices.parts? | 11:33 |
| erUSUL | Chetlap: and still you have system beep ? i now you can deactivate it in the terminal preferences | 11:33 |
| zap0 | (yes i know it sounds trolly -->) can anyone explain to me, why most of the ubuntu release info in the media is so mind numbingly superficial ? like what colour the background is.. where some freaking icon is.. blah blah... WTF? seriuosly? wtf is going on? | 11:33 |
| Sam_Fisher | Div_By_Zero, you are going to try to reinstall? | 11:33 |
| jhaig | kraut: Common 'problem'. :-) I haven't tried it, but Google found this for me => http://lifehacker.com/5500577/move-ubuntus-window-buttons-back-to-the-right | 11:33 |
| Sam_Fisher | zap0, pass | 11:33 |
| `blackmk4`linux | does anyone know how i can dist-upgrade to a new kernel on a headless server and use kexec to prevent a reboot | 11:33 |
| Chetlap | erUSUL, yeah it's deactivated in the terminal but if I try to move the pointer in gedit down where there are no more lines it goes off | 11:34 |
| kraut | jhaig: is this a "new feature" or a bug? | 11:34 |
| Sam_Fisher | seriously no one can tell me how to copy the long address to a file? | 11:34 |
| pepee | Stormcr0w, if you reinstall grub, it will remove your old configs and it will not load if you don't mount your external hdd | 11:34 |
| jhaig | kraut: Neither. A new design, which some people like and some people hate. | 11:34 |
| Chetlap | erUSUL, also, it's not a pcspeaker, it comes from the speakers (on a dell studio xps 13 laptop) | 11:34 |
| Div_By_Zero | Sam_Fisher, do you have a gimp in the lucid? | 11:34 |
| Vigo | zap0: Look at the Forums or Official Ubuntu sites. | 11:34 |
| nikhil_ | please, can anyone help me with a modem which was showing up as ttyUSB* in karmic, and now is not showing up?? | 11:34 |
| kraut | jhaig: gnah, this is disgusting | 11:35 |
| nikhil_ | (after upgrade to lucid) | 11:35 |
| Stormcr0w | vigo: not sure what you mean. Each drive has got its own assignation (sda, sdb) and its partition its own number (sda1, sda2), etc. My boot.cfg is here: http://www.copypaste.at/1143 | 11:35 |
| Stormcr0w | pepee: no, I didn't get as far as reinstalling. It threw an error message, remember? | 11:35 |
| Vigo | Stormcr0w: Thank you. | 11:35 |
| Sam_Fisher | Div_By_Zero, yes I installed it. You might need to "purge" bad files by running Computer Janitor which is installed already | 11:35 |
| pepee | Stormcr0w, yeah | 11:35 |
| Pyrokinetics | ian__: i tought it was enough to extract the mail and contacts, i guess i burnt myself cause i cant import them on the new icomputer | 11:36 |
| Div_By_Zero | Sam_Ficher, right! i go to try | 11:36 |
| jhaig | I am starting to install 10.04. I want user authentication to be done by LDAP, but I also want a local user, with a non-default home directory (as /home will be an NFS mount). Is there a way to set the user's home directory to, for example, /usr/home/administrator during the install? When I last installed (9.04) I created the user and then moved it afterwards. | 11:36 |
| pepee | Stormcr0w, but if that's the case you should try and repair the windows boot manager/loader | 11:36 |
| GSF1200S | On the 10.04 upgrade when it prompts you which device to install on, should it be /dev/sda or /dev/sda1? Ive seen alot of people with this issue and Id like a definitive answer so I can help them | 11:36 |
| halvors | Can somone help me with my email server? | 11:36 |
| halvors | I want to setup Postfix and Dovecot | 11:37 |
| wildbat | pepee, what's wrong with Stormcr0w 's system? | 11:37 |
| pepee | Stormcr0w, I feel guilty about it :S | 11:37 |
| halvors | :-D | 11:37 |
| Stormcr0w | pepee: But the windows bootloader works fine. It chainloads into Grub in a matter of split seconds. The problem is between Grub and Ubuntu boot-up | 11:37 |
| GSF1200S | Ive done /dev/sda for all of my installs, but it seems this causes some peoples windows installs not to work | 11:37 |
| p1 | Hi there does any one know how to restore a pybackpack archive ? I just did a backup using it before my upgrade, now I can't seem to find the index file to do the restore. | 11:37 |
| minche | hi does anyone know where does amarok2.2 keep it's collection. 'cause i can't find it, but it's there | 11:37 |
| pepee | Stormcr0w, yeah, but if you reinstall grub, it may delete the windows bootloader | 11:38 |
| Pirate_Hunter | how do I remove the function of control-alt-delete on lucid server? | 11:38 |
| Sam_Fisher | freckle, returned | 11:38 |
| freckle | ok so i removed empathy , rebooted and the reinstalled..still same issue | 11:38 |
| Stormcr0w | pepee: I don't think we've actually reinstalled anything | 11:38 |
| Sam_Fisher | freckle, it was worth every penny you paid us | 11:38 |
| freckle | Sam_Fisher: still have the issue | 11:38 |
| Sam_Fisher | freckle, so u r going to make me open it to try to help you | 11:39 |
| Stormcr0w | pepee: and if we did, I would have selected the external drive where linux is installed as the target | 11:39 |
| freckle | i think it might be related to a app called QuitCount that I cant remove from the panel | 11:39 |
| Stormcr0w | that should not affect the mbr, should it? | 11:39 |
| Stormcr0w | anyway, a restart will let us know | 11:39 |
| Stormcr0w | Vigo: Any breakthroughs? | 11:39 |
| pepee | Stormcr0w, the problem is: grub files will be in the ubuntu partition | 11:39 |
| mandrew | man i got my UNE to start up on 14 sec :D with the ssd | 11:39 |
| freckle | Sam_Fisher: open it? | 11:39 |
| pepee | and if grub bootloader don't find them, it will not run at all | 11:40 |
| === zorzar_ is now known as zorzar | ||
| pepee | Stormcr0w, yeah, restart and see what happens | 11:40 |
| Stormcr0w | pepee: well, if the error message didn't stop it altogether and it actually overwrote itself | 11:40 |
| Stormcr0w | pepee: then I'll just repair everything from the windows cd and then from the livecd | 11:41 |

| winXPuser | hi, this crappy windows says that i can't just copy my 'user', 'programs' & 'windows' dirs to new hard drive, then boot from it, because some system files are lost during the copying; is this an issue with ubuntu? | 11:41 |
| Sam_Fisher | freckle, I opened it and I can't find any setting either | 11:41 |
| Vigo | Stormcr0w: That is a heck of a loader, line 64 to 83 looks like where the gremlin is | 11:42 |
| freckle | Sam_Fisher: i think it is this QuitCount have emailed the author to find out how to remove it | 11:42 |
| gnuskool | 2 minutes till upgrade !! | 11:42 |
| Sam_Fisher | freckle, so you can't remove it from the bar? | 11:42 |
| kraut | jhaig: works fine, thanks! | 11:42 |
| freckle | Sam_Fisher: you can quit it from the menu but when you restart it is still there | 11:43 |
| Vigo | Now my head hurts.. | 11:43 |

| zorzar | pepee: for me it's a virtualbox installation | 11:49 |
| Vigo | redasndro: What pepee said, it is in BIOS | 11:49 |
| pepee | Stormcr0w, "boot another devices" or something like that | 11:49 |

| jhaig | penguin42: Not quite. It looks like it has cut off the right-hand side of the panel. If it were just sizing it incorrectly, the things at the right should still be there. | 12:12 |

| penguin42 | jhaig: Oh I see, hmm - is it just the panel or is it more wide ranging - if you drag a window across the screen does it get cut off at the same point? | 12:13 |

| Stormcr0w | wildbat: restarting now with "Set debug=all" in grub.cfg | 12:25 |
| cpp_ | I use remote desktop a lot ...and the common things that usually renderes it black is ... 1) a connection failed ... 2) too few ressources on the remote PC ... 3) a network issue, when going through a NATed network ... | 12:25 |
| wildbat | Redsandro, no the boot argument | 12:25 |
| wildbat | Stormcr0w, weeee~ | 12:25 |

| ubottu | Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines . Enjoy your stay! | 12:25 |
| wildbat | !ask | 12:25 |

| wildbat | Redsandro, gparted can do it | 12:25 |
| Redsandro | wildbat: Oh argument! Thanks for tip I can google it | 12:25 |

| ubottu | As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) | 12:33 |
| Dr_Willis | silv3r_m00n: unless i got -X and -x backwards.. one enables.. one disables.. | 12:34 |
| wildbat | Stormcr0w, only one Dr here Willis;p | 12:34 |
| cpp_ | geekphreak: no such package in my rep. ...but I do have the built-in one. | 12:34 |
| Stormcr0w | wildbat: thanks, I'll try to get his attention | 12:34 |
| NoReflex | Dr_Willis: it's -X for X forwarding...also it's recommended to use compression with X - forwarding | 12:34 |
| cpp_ | atari2600a: you're welcome | 12:34 |
| geekphreak | cpp_: there is 1 sec | 12:34 |
| Dr_Willis | ask the question and see.. i am in and out of the channel all day. Right now i hear the 2 yr old up. may be time for a bottle. :) | 12:35 |
| Dr_Willis | NoReflex: i always enable it by default in my ssh configs. :) thats why i never rember | 12:35 |
| anggi | geekphreak: i found md5sum in the flashdisk....what should i do with it | 12:35 |
| Stormcr0w | Dr_Willis: hello. I have been referred to you by a number of people in the channel. I have a problem with a long delay between selecting Ubuntu in Grub and the system actually starting to boot. | 12:35 |
| mcl0vin | morning guys, i have lost my on the default panel , to the right of the clock were it shows the logged in name , and when you click it , you get the option to shutdown...i lost that whole icon, how can i get it back please? | 12:35 |

| learner7 | is there any command for apt to remove all residual config files? | 12:36 |
| cpp_ | geekphreak: I get "Could not find message body in FETCH response." | 12:36 |
| geekphreak | anggi: when you download an iso, it shows md5sum of that iso, compare them, if it comes out ok, then only burn it to usb/cd | 12:36 |
| Sudha | http://www.unixmen.com/linux-tutorials/917-customize-1004-lucid-lynx-ambient-theme-tips I tried this link . but it doesnt get effect even after i restarted my computer how do i redo this ... ?? | 12:36 |
| Dr_Willis | Stormcr0w: Hard to tell. Ive seen some delays on some box's - I got one that has a HUGE delay btweek grub starting and the actual display of the grub menu. (like 40+sec) I would say check the forums, and perhas the actual grub homepage/forums for possible leads. | 12:36 |
| Sudha | !windowtitle | 12:37 |
| Dr_Willis | Stormcr0w: it does seem on some of my machines - more hard drives = longer delay | 12:37 |
| tony_newbie | My keyboard and touchpad do not work after rebooting10.04 | 12:37 |
| XorgedOne | Morning folks. I have an Xorg issue. running 9.10 live cd at the momment. I installed 10.04 amd64 and when I boot up all I get is a tty. any help would be much appreciated here | 12:37 |
| geekphreak | cpp_: does this happen with 1 partiuclar email ?, i would log into webmail interface delete that email | 12:37 |
| NoReflex | mcl0vin: you probably need the indicator-session applet | 12:37 |
| Stormcr0w | Dr_Willis: Thank you! My type of delay is after Grub shows up and Ubuntu is selected. I have disabled quiet splash in grub and it takes approximately 35 seconds before anything starts to load after I select Ubuntu in Grub | 12:38 |
| mcl0vin | NoReflex: how do i get it | 12:38 |
| silv3r_m00n | Dr_Willis: is it not possible to do from terminal ? | 12:38 |
| Dr_Willis | silv3r_m00n: i dont use vmware. so no idea. | 12:38 |
| NoReflex | mcl0vin: right click on the panel -> Add to panel | 12:38 |
| wildbat | Stormcr0w, can you get me your grub.cfg? | 12:38 |
| cpp_ | geekphreak: its multiple ... so it is an issue ....yeah I remember the trick of deleting a message, when I use to have POP3 issues ...but this is different ...KMail seems to work fine....but I would _relly_ prefer Evolution. | 12:38 |
| Stormcr0w | Dr_Willis: I have checked several websites before ending up here. I always try to use this irc my last resort | 12:38 |
| kebomix | hello , i faced this problem while installing netbeans on ubuntu 10.04 http://pastebin.com/C07CvrC5 , i can't find solution after googling , any solution ? | 12:39 |
| wildbat | Stormcr0w, how many HD you got btw ;p | 12:39 |
| geekphreak | cpp_: true , i prefer evolution too | 12:39 |
| NoReflex | Stormcr0w: grub delay? there's a delay before the default item is "booted"... | 12:39 |
| anggi | geekphreak: i think there's nothing wrong with the usb stick, i use it to install to another computer, and it works fine.. | 12:39 |
| Stormcr0w | wildbat: here you go http://www.copypaste.at/1143 | 12:39 |
| cpp_ | geekphreak: In fact .. I only have two crucial issues with the new 10.04 ....and this is one of them ...cuz e-mail a kindda important ;-) | 12:39 |
| anggi | geekphreak: but it shows error message in my computer... | 12:39 |
| === quincy is now known as Quincy | ||
| Stormcr0w | No Reflex: there is a delay after the grub screen disappears, whether I wait for the time to expire (currently set at 3secs) or whether I physically hit enter myself | 12:40 |
| mcl0vin | NoReflex: well i do have everything except my login name it then, when i used to click on it and it will give me the option to log off | 12:41 |
| geekphreak | cpp_: right | 12:41 |
| wildbat | Stormcr0w, just a thought ~ dod you try omiting the search command in the grub.cfg? | 12:41 |
| === Rapt0r_ is now known as redkite | ||

| === redkite is now known as blackkite | ||
| Stormcr0w | wildbat: no I did not. Which one are you referring to? | 12:41 |
| cpp_ | geekphreak: most issues and their solutions are posted in the forums ...but this one eludes me ...thought I would give IRC a go :-) | 12:41 |
| learner7 | anggi, I was able to upgrade from koala. 0_0 | 12:42 |
| jhaig | Is it possible to modify the login screen? Specifically, I don't want a list of users to appear, just a text box for 'Username'. | 12:42 |
| Stormcr0w | jacekowski: thanks, I'll give it a try now | 12:42 |
| cpp_ | geekphreak: I can't be the only one what this issue | 12:42 |
| jacekowski | Stormcr0w: because grub access disk much slower ( using bios interrupts ) and it still has to open fs including journal ( and journal implementation in grub is suboptimal ) | 12:42 |
| wildbat | Stormcr0w, line 69 | 12:42 |
| Dr_Willis | jhaig: thers tweak programs out that do just that. ubuntu-tweak is one, gdm2setup is another. | 12:42 |
| Stormcr0w | jacekowski: although I must say that this is a fresh install and the partition has just been formatted | 12:42 |
| ZummiG777 | Question: I've got all my repos added but I can't find sunbird for 10.04 - does anybody know where it went? | 12:42 |

| Stormcr0w | wildbat: thanks, I'll give it a try | 12:43 |
| sipior | anggi: you'll have better luck with a more specific question, i think :-) | 12:44 |
| cpp_ | geekphreak: yes....just so you know where I am... 1) If done all the things/settings you can do with "Subscriting to folder" ... 2) I have done all with "Make messages available offline" ... 3) clearing out the cached-directory ... | 12:44 |
| learner7 | well, it was bloated as all get out, took up about 5.3 GB of disk space, but yes. | 12:44 |
| ravibn | Hi! I was running Gizmo voip and I minimized it and cannot get back to that process | 12:44 |
| learner7 | anggi, also-- hadn't added much if any software, rather had hacked a lot out. | 12:44 |
| cpp_ | geekphreak: ... 4) re-creating the profile ...5) I have even tried to install an IMAP Proxy server (perdition), to see if that would help | 12:44 |
| cpp_ | *If='I've | 12:45 |

| anggi | sipior: it happens in the purple splash screen after choosing to install.. | 12:46 |
| jhaig | Dr_Willis: Thanks. is ubuntu-tweaks more general than gdm2setup? I have a feeling that there will be a number of tweaks I will want to do, not just to gdm. | 12:46 |
| wildbat | Stormcr0w, yes sir | 12:46 |
| anggi | sipior: any idea what happened? | 12:46 |

| Stormcr0w | wildbat: thank you, squire | 12:46 |
| Pirate_Hunter | Is it worth uncommenting net.ipv4.tcp_syncookies=1 from /etc/sysctl.cong? I am wondering because the file states that those were found in previous version of netbased, so are they not needed no more? | 12:46 |
| cpp_ | geekphreak: I think there is a huge bug in the IMAP implementation in Evolution .. so atm I'm looking for a workaround of some sorts. | 12:47 |

| Eddie_6 | Hi! Does anyone know a good rss feed reader that will sync feeds between computers and platforms? I've used Google Reader until know, but I would like to have a desktop solution for this. | 12:56 |
| learner7 | DarkHelmut, http://www.tuxradar.com/content/discover-new-features-ubuntu-1004-lucid-lynx | 12:57 |
| GodricBrutus | can i disable the fact that my right-click acts as a left-click sometimes? like if i were to right click on my desktop and accidentally right click again on one of the menu items that come up, it acts as if i right clicked on the menu item because it activates the clicked item | 12:57 |
| geekphreak | cpp_: ok | 12:57 |
| Stereocaulon | DarkHelmut, here are the release notes: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/1004 | 12:57 |

| learner7 | DarkHelmut, also https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-announce/2010-April/000133.html | 12:58 |
| cpp_ | geekphreak: I really appreciate the time you are taking with this ... its a huge issue ...so it would be great if it could be solved. | 12:58 |
| geekphreak | cpp_: no worries mate | 12:58 |
| wildbat | Dr_Willis, is it possible said i have another machine to ssh this one and have the current xchat forward to the another machine? | 12:58 |
| DarkHelmut | thanks Stereocaulon & learner7 | 12:59 |
| Dr_Willis | wildbat: not the 'current' one. | 12:59 |
| drbobb | hello, looking for fellow broadcom wireless adapter users | 12:59 |
| Dr_Willis | wildbat: you could start a vnc session with a minimal window manager and access that from one or more machines | 12:59 |
| wildbat | Dr_Willis, ouchie~ | 12:59 |
| === James is now known as Guest62738 | ||
| Dr_Willis | wildbat: detatching a X application from one machine and reatatching it to another.. is a bit of a challange. | 13:00 |
| Redsandro | wildbat: The drive wants to unmount itself to write the partition table but it is in use by the installer or something :P | 13:00 |
| === diego is now known as Guest7153 | ||
| Stereocaulon | DarkHelmut, just got this link by searching for "10.04 release notes" | 13:00 |
| cpp_ | geekphreak: test complete ... no change ... (I would have been really surprised it that was the issue...as the spam-filter kick in _after_ the IMAP transaction is done) | 13:00 |
| drbobb | is support for the BCM4318 broken in lucid, or am I doing something wrong? | 13:00 |
| Dr_Willis | wildbat: or enable vnc/remote desktop on one box running xchat and access the desktop from the otehr. | 13:00 |
| wildbat | Dr_Willis, vnc i slow i was hoping i can drop it with newly learned ssh -X ;p | 13:00 |
| latenite | geekphreak, that gives me a new "search-tree" below the in box. NOT in the Inbox. | 13:00 |
| geekphreak | cpp_: agreed, i was just trying to cut out the possiblites :d | 13:00 |
| Dr_Willis | wildbat: OR use a irc proxy thing that you connect the clients to. so it dosent matter which machine you use | 13:01 |
| Dr_Willis | wildbat: use a minimal window manager for best speeds in vnc | 13:01 |
| cpp_ | geekphreak: yup :-) that I undestand ....I was why I did it. | 13:01 |
| cpp_ | geekphreak: you never know | 13:01 |
| geekphreak | latenite: when you right click, you should get option to create new folder | 13:01 |
| wildbat | Dr_Willis, i see | 13:01 |
| XorgedOne | I have an Xorg issue. running 9.10 live cd at the moment. I installed 10.04 amd64 and when I boot up all I get is a tty.Works fine in 10.04 32 bit any help would be much appreciated here paste of Xorg.0.log http://paste.ubuntu.com/426961/ | 13:01 |
| latenite | geekphreak, I do. that gives me an empty folder...hwo do i add a rule to it? | 13:01 |
| Dr_Willis | !info znc | 13:01 |
| ubottu | znc (source: znc): an advanced IRC bouncer. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.078-1 (lucid), package size 863 kB, installed size 2292 kB | 13:02 |
| wildbat | Redsandro, oh @@ right your casper is in the C: | 13:02 |
| Redsandro | wildbat: I guess this is a problem, when I ignore the migrationassistant crashes | 13:02 |
| Dr_Willis | wildbat: with znc (or others) you can point your irc clients to the znc server and they all connect to the same server/channels | 13:02 |
| geekphreak | latenite: right click X email >> create filter, then specify the folder | 13:02 |
| geekphreak | cpp_: all messages formatted as HTML? | 13:02 |
| wesguin | learner7, thanks for that tux link, I like my buttons on the right side | 13:02 |
| GhostWolf | hi all, i need help setting samba up, i have installed it and hopefully did the configuration right, but i tried to restart it and it says file or directory not found | 13:03 |
| learner7 | wesguin, pulled from distrowatchweekly. | 13:03 |
| Redsandro | wildbat: If I can get Grub4Dos to load USB drivers and then run from memory so I can boot Casper from USB and unmount the drive.. that might work. Is that possible? | 13:03 |
| wildbat | Dr_Willis, i see ~ just use xchat as example ;p ~ just wanna drop VNC but thanks more info too look for ;p | 13:03 |
| wesguin | learner7, I'll keep it in mind | 13:03 |
| cpp_ | geekphreak: mostly yes ... (I think most people send me the messages in HTML format....not many are using text anymore) plz keep in mind that KMail works | 13:03 |
| Stereocaulon | XorgedOne, which nVidia card do you have? (lspci | grep -i vga) | 13:03 |
| Dr_Willis | wildbat: use a text based irc client and screen over ssh :) thats a fun way also | 13:03 |
| wesguin | learner7, now I just need to figure out how to change the console resolution | 13:04 |
| latenite | geekphreak, again. that gives me a searchfolder. but it stay empty | 13:04 |
| wildbat | Redsandro, yes ~ | 13:04 |
| geekphreak | cpp_: thats why some settings messed up , | 13:04 |
| XorgedOne | Stereocaulon, nVidia Corporation C61 [GeForce 6150SE nForce 430] (rev a2) | 13:04 |
| geekphreak | latenite: it does huh? | 13:04 |
| GhostWolf | can anyone help me seeing if samba has started already for me? | 13:04 |
| wildbat | Dr_Willis, text~ haha ~ can imagine it ~ xD can try ~ any good irc client for that? | 13:05 |
| latenite | geekphreak, yes. :( | 13:05 |
| cpp_ | geekphreak: uhmm ? | 13:05 |
| haavaros | How do I add MMS handling for Totem video player? | 13:05 |
| learner7 | wildbat, irssi is a good console IRC client. | 13:05 |
| geekphreak | cpp_: if it works on kmail, some settings are messed up or some plugin or something is being buggy on evol. | 13:05 |
| wesguin | haavaros, you probably need to first add the non-free repositories | 13:06 |
| abhilash1 | my lucid hangs just like that without any reason, like while browsing, music playing? is there a way to correct this? | 13:06 |
| wildbat | Redsandro, or you can have dos too to resize the partition ~ dos tools can easily fit to memory | 13:06 |
| === z is now known as Guest22032 | ||
| abhilash1 | anyone having this problem? | 13:06 |
| cpp_ | geekphreak: yup... and that's why I'm looking for a workaround at this point ... I did find a website that explained a bug concerning the IMAP implementation ... | 13:06 |
| beruic | Anybody knows how to force hdparm -B options in Lucid? I have a WDV1600BEVS drive that load cycles a lot on default options. | 13:06 |
| cpp_ | geekphreak: ... the FETCH UID command was used inappropiately | 13:07 |
| wildbat | Redsandro, can't you resize in windows thou ~ one single big partition? | 13:07 |
| Stereocaulon | XorgedOne, thanks. I'm looking into it if there is a known problem with the nForce 430 chipset. | 13:07 |
| wildbat | leagris, thanks ~ more thing to play with XD | 13:07 |
| GhostWolf | i've installed samba through terminal and edited the config file, im having a problem with it restarting. can anyone help me to either get it started? | 13:07 |
| Stormcr0w | Hi everyone, I have a fresh install of Ubuntu 10.04 on an external hard drive. GRUB2 is chainloaded into from the Windows bootloader. When I select Ubuntu in GRUB2, there is a 40-second delay between my selection and the OS' actually starting to load. I have disabled quiet splash and activated debugging in grub, so that I can tell when activity takes place. Any ideas? | 13:07 |
| Redsandro | wildbat: I want to keep a tiny XP partition till I know stuff works | 13:08 |
| XorgedOne | Stereocaulon, the card is recognized and drivers are offered for install on 10.04 32bit. | 13:08 |
| wildbat | Stormcr0w, no lick? | 13:08 |
| wildbat | Stormcr0w, no luck? | 13:08 |
| Stormcr0w | wildbat: nope | 13:08 |
| geekphreak | GhostWolf: sudo service smbd start | 13:08 |
| blaza | hello, does anyone know of a fix for the trackpad on mynetbook, it does not scroll. it worked perfectly in 9. | 13:08 |
| Redsandro | wildbat: I have USB working in casper, can I somehow boot linux from usb from within the livecd (on hd)? | 13:08 |
| GhostWolf | greekphreak ok let me see if that will do it | 13:08 |
| learner7 | blaza, they'll need to know which netbook. | 13:08 |
| Stereocaulon | XorgedOne, did you do an upgrade or a fresh install? | 13:09 |
| XorgedOne | Stereocaulon, fresh install | 13:09 |
| digitalstimulus | does anyone know of a simple network backup solution for ubuntu? I don't really need incremental, just replication to a samba share | 13:09 |
| cpp_ | Is anyone currently in this channel using IMAP in Evolution ? | 13:09 |
| Stormcr0w | wildbat: the only difference was that, while debug=all was activated in grub.cfg, during the inactivity time, there was one single line on the upper left corner of the screen | 13:09 |
| blaza | i have a gateway lt2104u | 13:09 |
| llutz | digitalstimulus: rsync | 13:09 |
| geekphreak | cpp_: actually i am , but i use aol | 13:09 |
| Stormcr0w | wildbat: it didn't even flicker | 13:09 |
| beruic | Does anybody know how to force hdparm -B options in Lucid? | 13:09 |
| beruic | I have a WDV1600BEVS drive that load cycles a lot on default options. | 13:09 |
| GhostWolf | greekphreak it says its already running, how do i restart it? same command but restart instead of start? | 13:09 |
| wildbat | Redsandro, can you resize a partition for the casper in widow first that way you don't have too do the problematic boot | 13:09 |
| cpp_ | geekphreak: ok...and it works ? | 13:10 |
| geekphreak | GhostWolf: sudo service smbd restart | 13:10 |
| geekphreak | cpp_: yes sir | 13:10 |
| digitalstimulus | rsync can access samba without having to mount separately? | 13:10 |
| GhostWolf | geekphreak, ok thanks | 13:10 |
| Fill23 | how can i learn wich version of amd fglrx driver i have? | 13:10 |
| learner7 | digitalstimulus, think so. You can use grsync to be sure. | 13:10 |
| hatake_kakashi | digitalstimulus, yes but you'll find a fair bit of overhead there | 13:10 |
| cpp_ | geekphreak: which version Evolution ? (cuz I could make it work in 8.04 Hardy ) | 13:10 |
| geekphreak | cpp_: 2.28.3 | 13:11 |
| wildbat | Stormcr0w, :< | 13:11 |
| Kuifje111 | for some reason apt-get didnt create the .conf files for lighttpd (maybe because I had it previously installed), is there anyway to retreive them anyway? | 13:11 |
| digitalstimulus | I tried grsync, didn't show samba locations...I know I can hack something together through BASH, but I would like something automated that is sorta standard already | 13:11 |
| jrib | Kuifje111: purge the package that owns the file and install it again | 13:12 |
| cpp_ | geekphreak: ok...so the lastes Ubuntu ...and yes...I don't have any issues with Google Mail either ...weird. | 13:12 |
| Stormcr0w | wildbat: it's like there is some sort of countdown or as if grub is looking for something before actually starting to load | 13:12 |
| beruic | Does anybody know how to force hdparm -B options in 10.04 Lucid? | 13:12 |
| Kuifje111 | jrib: ok | 13:12 |
| beruic | I have a WDV1600BEVS drive that load cycles a lot on default options. I could change this in some scripts in 9.10 Karmic, but can not find out where to do it in Lucid. | 13:12 |
| hatake_kakashi | digitalstimulus, you'll have to mount the samba partitions first to make use of rsync/grsync | 13:12 |
| Stormcr0w | wildbat: but there are no indications as to what | 13:12 |
| cpp_ | geekphreak: hey...I'm just gonna make a test right now with Thunderbird....just to check. | 13:12 |
| llutz | beruic: no /etc/default/hdparm anymore? | 13:12 |
| geekphreak | cpp_: yup gmails works here, i remember one of th guys had to decreate number of emails per request if that make sense in imap setting of gmail, dont know if it was bug or just a coincedence | 13:13 |
| beruic | llutz: Nope :( | 13:13 |
| geekphreak | cpp_: ok | 13:13 |
| wildbat | Stormcr0w, what partiton is the /boot locate? | 13:13 |
| Redsandro | wildbat: I will try | 13:13 |

| Redsandro | wildbat: Thanks very much with your help! | 13:14 |
| llutz | beruic: no idea about 10.04 | 13:14 |
| cpp_ | geekphreak: it _could_ very well be related to that bug. | 13:14 |
| Dr_Willis | beruic: i would say try that. I seem to recall those tools tweaking some powersaving features. | 13:14 |
| hatake_kakashi | digitalstimulus, what are the source and target OS? | 13:14 |
| abhijain | geekphreak: installation complete for php now how to start services | 13:14 |
| Stormcr0w | wildbat: external usb drive, with three partitions: 1st swap, 2nd ext4 for Ubuntu and 3rd HFS+ where I have an OS X installation | 13:14 |
| beruic | Dr_Willis: Will try | 13:14 |
| haavaros | wesguin: Thats ubuntu-restricted-extras, right? | 13:14 |
| cpp_ | geekphreak: as I believe the issue/bug is in the FETCH'ing of the ID numbers for the emails ...and mis-use af FETCH UID | 13:14 |
| digitalstimulus | hatake_kakashi, theoretically, any OS | 13:15 |
| geekphreak | abhijain: if you just install apache it should be running , open browser http://localhost/ | 13:15 |
| GhostWolf | geekphreak, if on my windows side if it asks for a username/password i have to set it up right? | 13:15 |
| blaza | i have a gateway lt2104u, the scroll does not work in the new netook version. any ideas? | 13:15 |
| geekphreak | cpp_: right | 13:15 |
| wesguin | haavaros, yeah.. well there's medibuntu lucid and some other one.. gdeb or something | 13:15 |
| wesguin | let me check | 13:16 |
| FeasibilityStudy | Let's say I have a folder of wallpapers. How do I install them? If I use the theme manager, it wants me to add them one at a time. There has to be a better way. I have tried putting them in /usr/share/background but they don't show up | 13:16 |
| geekphreak | GhostWolf: yes you have to add smbusers | 13:16 |
| Stereocaulon | XorgedOne, really strange...Xorg can't find a correct modeline for your card. Maybe the 64 bits driver cannot extract VESA data correctly for your setup | 13:16 |
| haavaros | wesguin: ubuntu-restricted did the job thx | 13:16 |
| GhostWolf | geekphreak, ok | 13:16 |
| theduke | maybe this would be more appropriate in the apache channel, but: how can I install new modules to apache2? namely: mod_setenv | 13:16 |
| abhijain | geekphreak: its woring thanx alot . | 13:17 |
| wesguin | haavaros, 'k | 13:17 |
| haavaros | btw, is there a way to determine bitrate of a streaming video? It says n/a in properties in totem | 13:17 |
| Jerry_Tn_ | morning all | 13:17 |
| wildbat | Stormcr0w, howmany HD you got? | 13:17 |
| * wesguin doesn't know that one | 13:17 | |
| XorgedOne | Stereocaulon, So I can do nothing about it for now? | 13:18 |
| geekphreak | theduke: hello | 13:18 |
| wesguin | haavaros, maybe that was just a variable bitrate stream? | 13:18 |
| wildbat | Stormcr0w, trying to set up a similar VM see if i can get your delay ~ | 13:18 |
| geekphreak | theduke: i think sudo a2enmod setenvif | 13:18 |
| cpp_ | geekphreak: no issue in Thunderbird ...as expected | 13:18 |
| Stormcr0w | wildbat: 2 internal (1 IDE w/ Windows 7 and one SATA for storage), 3 external, all USB, but just one has OSs on it | 13:18 |
| beruic | Dr_Willis: Think that might fixed it. See a lot of files I missed now. | 13:18 |

| solofight | zvacet, wow, using that i can download all dependencies of wvdial in a single shot and store it in a usb stick and boot ubuntu and compile the packages to install it there ! ? | 13:27 |
| geekphreak | sreeju: it is a bluetooth device, which connect to you pc usb port , | 13:27 |

| Stormcr0w | wildbat: point is that the dmesg shows everything that is done during boot up, right? so, that is the time of activity. Means there is a time of inactivity right before that. | 13:27 |

| MikaelEriksson | Hiya folks. Here's my problem. I upgraded the other day from KK to LL. Did it straight from the software update center. Everything went kinda fine, until I got a question about GRUB and which partition it should be installed to. My mouse finger slipped, and I pressed Next, without selecting a partition. Got a message which told me I did bad, but the Back-button didn't work :( The system... | 13:54 |
| DanC | exactly what did you type, UnclaimedBaggage ? | 13:54 |
| MikaelEriksson | ...continued to install just fine, but when i rebooted it hung. I get the startup screen with some funky red dots, but it freezes there. What should I do now? Don't really want to install everything from scratch... | 13:54 |
| Ari_Lazarus | wokay, here I go :3 | 13:54 |
| tuubow | Ari_Lazarus: Ubuntu mounts NTFS without issues... | 13:54 |

| joaopinto | enriq, that explains it, compiz is not supported on your other graphics card | 13:55 |
| UnclaimedBaggage | DanC: I mean they don't actually enter onto the screen. So if I open up a terminal and type `, nothing shows up in the terminal window | 13:55 |
| retro89 | babyface1: hit CTRL +H to view hidden folders | 13:56 |

| penguin42 | BuGo_laptop: Yeh, that's normal - so on lucid if you cd into /dev/pts and do a df . you should see it's a special mount on /dev/pts - I'm not sure if Jaunty is the same | 13:57 |

| Jaelae | nivekc1 - the browser version doesn't work in Firefox? | 14:16 |

| MikaelEriksson | Hiya folks. Here's my problem. I upgraded the other day from KK to LL. Did it straight from the software update center. Everything went kinda fine, until I got a question about GRUB and which partition it should be installed to. My mouse finger slipped, and I pressed Next, without selecting a partition. Got a message which told me I did bad, but the Back-button didn't work :( The system... | 14:16 |
| MikaelEriksson | ...continued to install just fine, but when i rebooted it hung. I get the startup screen with some funky red dots, but it freezes there. What should I do now? Don't really want to install everything from scratch... | 14:16 |
| nivekc1 | i was using agent switcher to make it think i had IE8 | 14:17 |
| geekphreak | cya people tcpeople :) | 14:17 |
| Agionz | Can anyone help me with partitions at installing ubuntu? | 14:17 |

| cpp_ | geekphreak: thanx | 14:17 |
| MrKeuner | hi, my laptop does not suspend if idle 10 minutes. (and sometimes it hibernates when I expect it to suspend, although the battery was not critically low) How can I track this problem? | 14:17 |

| cpp_ | so ...anybody outthere who uses IMAP in Evolution ? | 14:18 |
| geirha | WXZ: Install the guest additions in the guest os, then you can simply resize the vbox window to resize the vbox's screen. | 14:18 |
| WXZ | hmmm, ok I'll see if that works | 14:18 |
| WXZ | nope | 14:19 |
| WXZ | no matter what resolution I put it at | 14:19 |
| geirha | WXZ: What is the guest os? | 14:19 |
| WXZ | the icons stay the same size, just the screen resizes | 14:19 |
| WXZ | xp | 14:19 |
| cpp_ | so ...anybody out there who uses IMAP in Evolution ? | 14:19 |
| geirha | WXZ: I though that's what you meant. | 14:20 |
| tottto-drummond | good day all | 14:20 |

| shiva_ | hii | 14:20 |

| shiva_ | i m unable to install yahoomessenger can any body help me | 14:21 |
| MrKeuner | tottto-drummond, try ctrl+alt f2 | 14:21 |
| WXZ | I'll give you the exact specs Cynthia | 14:21 |
| Dr_Willis | shiva_: what are you trying to install exactly? There is no longer an official Yahoo messenger program from yahoo for Linux (last i checked) theres 3rd party alternatives | 14:21 |
| WXZ | 1024x768 in a 1280x1024 window | 14:21 |
| WXZ | is that possible cynthia? | 14:22 |
| BuGo_laptop | sudo chmod -R 666 /dev/pts/ | 14:22 |
| BuGo_laptop | Cannot access '/dev/pts/1': Permission denied | 14:22 |
| Cynthia | shiva_: Pidgin (in the repositories as pidgin) and Empathy (provided on the Ubuntu LiveCD) does Yahoo accounts | 14:22 |
| BuGo_laptop | WHY? | 14:22 |
| geirha | WXZ: If you change your host resolution to 1024x768, then run the XP guest in fullscreen, it should look right. I don't know any other way. | 14:23 |
| WXZ | in fullscreen it takes up a part of the fullscreen | 14:23 |
| llutz | BuGo_laptop: what stupid thing are you trying to do? | 14:23 |
| hamzaatova1 | why totem slowing down the system when listening to radio? | 14:23 |

| Cynthia | shiva_: info: Dr_Willis is gone; please address your questions to the channel instead :) | 14:24 |
| llutz | BuGo_laptop: why chmodding pts for killing a server? you are confused | 14:24 |
| geirha | WXZ: Oh, you want the guest to show up in 1280x1024? but it really shows up in 1024x768? You might have to give the vm more video memory. | 14:24 |
| BuGo_laptop | llutz, well actually i am experiencing some troubles with screen | 14:24 |

| hellyeah | i try to join ubuntu+1 it said it is invited only | 14:25 |
| Dr_Willis | hellyeah: because its been released | 14:26 |
| Pici | hellyeah: Lucid is released, support is in here (#ubuntu). | 14:26 |
| joaopinto | hellyeah, lucid support is here | 14:26 |
| hellyeah | hmm | 14:26 |
| hellyeah | okey | 14:26 |
| hellyeah | i need repository list of ubuntu lucid | 14:26 |
| Pici | hellyeah: Its the same repositories that are in any other Ubuntu release. | 14:26 |
| BuGo_laptop | llutz, so it needed execute param? | 14:26 |
| llutz | BuGo_laptop: if you chmod 666 a directory, you cannot access fles inside | 14:26 |
| llutz | BuGo_laptop: sure it does, its a directory | 14:26 |
| BuGo_laptop | 666 is not == -wr-wr-wr? | 14:26 |
| Dr_Willis | BuGo_laptop: a directory has to be 'executable' to be accessable | 14:26 |
| cpp_ | so ...anybody out there who uses IMAP in Evolution ? | 14:26 |
| BuGo_laptop | oh... tnx | 14:27 |
| enriq | upgrade to 10.04 asked me where to put grub and apparently I screwed up the windows partition | 14:27 |
| pozic | cpp_: yes, it works. | 14:27 |
| llutz | BuGo_laptop: you should read some basics about files/dirs and permissions | 14:27 |
| BuGo_laptop | i never knew that | 14:27 |
| pozic | cpp_: it has one of the best implementations. | 14:27 |
| BuGo_laptop | llutz, indeed i should :/ | 14:27 |
| tottto-drummond | hello again when I try ALT-F2 nothing happens... ctrl-alt-F2 simply shuts down nautilus | 14:27 |
| yohannbzh | I have udev warnings at boot saying that i have to replace SYSFS{} by ATTR or ATTRS. What can I do? | 14:27 |
| enriq | my windows won't boot anymore, what can I do | 14:27 |
| nivekc1 | cpp_ i do | 14:27 |
| pozic | cpp_: so, if you have an issue, it is probably PEBKAC. | 14:27 |
| cpp_ | pozic: ok ...which mail-server software are you connecting to iima ? | 14:27 |
| geirha | BuGo_laptop: read permissions on a dir allows you to list the files in it, e.g. with ls, but you need execute to cd into it. | 14:27 |
| BuGo_laptop | aaah.... | 14:27 |
| pozic | cpp_: everything I have thrown at it works. | 14:27 |
| Cynthia | tottto-drummond: please try Alt+F2 within the Ubuntu Lucid LiveCD; using Ctrl+Alt+F2 doesn't shut down Nautilus, it merely changes to a terminal, in which you can log in and enter commands like you would in Alt+F2's Run Command dialog. To get back to Nautilus, press Alt+F7. | 14:28 |
| cpp_ | pozic: oh no...trust me ...its _NOT_ a problem between keyboard and chair | 14:28 |
| pozic | cpp_: so, if you have a problem describe the problem exactly and post it to their mailing list. | 14:28 |
| pozic | cpp_: I am just describing my experience. | 14:28 |
| Cynthia | tottto-drummond: If Alt+F2 doesn't work in the LiveCD, and you're not in a "console" (with just text) right now, please file a bug | 14:28 |

| WXZ | geihra | 14:29 |
| Almish87 | hi | 14:29 |
| pozic | cpp_: right, so for anything complex you would need to get into contact with the development guys anyway. | 14:29 |
| Cynthia | shiva_: Did you add your account in Pidgin/Accounts/Manage? | 14:29 |
| cpp_ | pozic: this is the error message ... from some of the messages that is being sync'ed via IMAP in Evolution ... "Could not find message body in FETCH response." | 14:29 |
| hellyeah | okey i see thanks | 14:29 |
| Codenut_ | my linux system is slowing down why | 14:30 |
| pozic | cpp_: the only way to know whether that is right or wrong is if you know the IMAP protocol yourself. | 14:30 |
| cpp_ | pozic: I think there is a protocol implementation bug ... | 14:30 |
| pozic | cpp_: I am going for the crappy server theory. | 14:30 |
| hellyeah | is there a way to eliminate duplication in sources.list ? | 14:30 |
| hellyeah | with command | 14:30 |
| shiva_ | @cynthia: ya i have added my account..when i try to login it shows " connecting" nd dosent move from that step | 14:30 |
| L65Druid | How do I see which programs are using port 80? (In ubuntu) | 14:30 |
| SirRedTooth | Is there anyway to remove options from the grub list? | 14:30 |
| pozic | cpp_: or a very good server that does follow the letter of the protocol, but has had no real usage. | 14:30 |
| kiwi4boy | oh darn, i can't boot my laptop... it freezes before GRUB even loads up... | 14:30 |
| llutz | L65Druid: sudo lsof -i :80 | 14:30 |
| Charbel | what is Qt ? | 14:30 |
| pozic | cpp_: and then finally the "Evolutions sucks" explanation. | 14:31 |
| L65Druid | llutz thanks! | 14:31 |
| hellyeah | look at the configuration file of grub | 14:31 |
| cpp_ | pozic: ... which was described on a website. | 14:31 |
| hellyeah | it is like /boot/grub.conf | 14:31 |
| Cynthia | hellyeah: `uniq /etc/apt/sources.list > temporaryfile; sudo mv /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.bak; sudo mv temporaryfile /etc/apt/sources.list` | 14:31 |

| ut316 | can i fix that? | 14:33 |

| cpp_ | pozic: oh...I'm just looking for a workaround | 14:35 |
| Cynthia | NickUK: That sounds like a graphics driver issue. What does `lspci | grep -i vga` say? | 14:35 |
| kiwi4boy | The HP logo* | 14:35 |
| Dr_Willis | enriq: you just needed to go on /dev/sda or whatever disk you boot from. Not /dev/sda1 or sdb1. | 14:35 |
| NickUK | Cynthia - I just hit "Install Ubuntu" on the boot screen of the disc | 14:35 |
| Cynthia | Ziber: Yes. Or your grub has hiddenmenu enabled and a delay od 300 | 14:35 |
| gmatt | kiwi4boy, what hp product do you have? | 14:35 |
| NickUK | Cynthia - I've not even got to install it yet. | 14:35 |
| Dr_Willis | enriq: its possible it saw more then 1 bootloader on the drives. You have more then one hard drive? or just one with several partitions? | 14:35 |

| Cynthia | (Minus the `) | 14:36 |
| jrib | shiva_: you can use gparted, but of course you should have backups of your important documents. Also, you'll have to reinstall grub after you install windows (/msg ubottu grub2) | 14:36 |
| enriq | Dr_Willis, 1 drive only, you're right I made this mistake, how do I fix the partition where windows is (or was) | 14:36 |

| geekphreak | j0hn: keep shift key pressed? | 15:05 |
| Pici | abhijain: There are not supposed to be ads on the wiki, if it is there I'd like to see it and file a bug/change it/whatever. | 15:05 |

| raeesi | jack__: ubuntu HDD has partitions "/" , "/boot" , "/home" | 15:05 |
| sobersabre | I want the DNS to be updated by the dhcp clients. | 15:05 |
| enriq | sllide, open terminal, then upgrade-manager -d | 15:05 |
| Dr_Willis | j0hn: and here i sit with a whole stack of keyboards.. :) i picked up for $1 each | 15:05 |
| nocturnus | anyone please? | 15:05 |
| enriq | sllide, you have a button "upgrade to 10.04" | 15:05 |
| jack__ | raeesi: ok. if its on the second disk and /boot is the first partition, it should look somethingl ike this in grub: | 15:05 |
| jack__ | hd(1,0) | 15:05 |
| enriq | sllide, do backup first | 15:05 |
| j0hn | Dr_Willis: it's in my notebook keyboard | 15:05 |
| sobersabre | I referred to this link: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-hackers/2003-November/003933.html | 15:05 |
| asmarin | upstart is the big s**t of the world runs when want | 15:05 |
| jack__ | raeesi: boot with a live cd and edit the grub.conf file | 15:06 |
| raeesi | jack__: yea ubuntu is on 1st HDD & windows+Pardus are on 2nd HDD | 15:06 |
| j0hn | Dr_Willis: i can't afford a new keyboard for my laptop | 15:06 |
| sobersabre | and I did as it says. | 15:06 |
| j0hn | geekphreak: see this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=9218731#post9218731 | 15:06 |
| jack__ | raeesi: if ubuntu is on the first, it should be hd(0,0) | 15:06 |
| enriq | agggg I cannot even mount the ntfs partition after I upgraded, I/O errors begin to block my system if I do | 15:06 |
| Dr_Willis | j0hn: bind to alt-~ perhaps :) thats close. | 15:06 |
| sllide | <enriq> sllide, open terminal, then upgrade-manager -d < doesnt work | 15:06 |
| sllide | it says command not found ;) | 15:06 |
| sobersabre | before I did it, my dhcp server had only the short hostname in the id column. After I finished, it had an fqdn. | 15:06 |
| cappiz | Someone here using ISPConfig 3? | 15:06 |
| Cynthia | sllide: that should be update-manager -d | 15:06 |
| sobersabre | I expected after that the DNS to be updated, but it isn't. | 15:06 |
| geekphreak | sllide: update-manager -d | 15:07 |
| enriq | sllide, sorry update-manager -d | 15:07 |
| sllide | ah | 15:07 |
| sllide | haha | 15:07 |
| sipior | sobersabre: is it perhaps cached at the client end? | 15:07 |
| teurastaja | i made a configuration mistake in alsa and now i cant even get to my desktop (it freezes at the wallpaper). i know how to fix it (just need to go through single user mode) but with grub2 (more used to the original and boot0 from *BSD), but i want to know about specific ubuntu initialisations and mounting i need to do in that process (nevermind the bad config i made i dont need help with this just single user) | 15:07 |
| Zhenya | hi guys, a n00b here who keeps getting kernel panics with blinking caps lock and black unresponsive screen | 15:07 |
| Dr_Willis | j0hn: i saw a gnome panel applet that let me mouse over program icon and just scroll the wheel also. (if you got a scroll wheel/area) | 15:07 |
| enriq | sllide, the backup advice holds :) | 15:07 |
| j0hn | Dr_Willis: i haven't think on that, it's cool, but i will try a little bit more on the Caps Lock, it feels more like the tab key | 15:07 |
| Zhenya | any suggestions? I updated from 9.10 to 10.04 | 15:07 |
| Pici | geekphreak, Cynthia, enriq: Please DO NOT use -d that is for updating to the latest DEVELOPMENT release. | 15:07 |
| cpp_ | geekphreak: sorry ... same mess :-( | 15:08 |
| Cynthia | then, apt-get dist-upgrade? | 15:08 |
| geekphreak | Pici: i was just correcting his spellings :) | 15:08 |
| teurastaja | do i just append a "1" to the kernel line? | 15:08 |
| j0hn | Dr_Willis: changing windows with mouse scroll? | 15:08 |
| nocturnus | preferably, one that automatically downloads and installs? | 15:08 |
| raeesi | jack__: im in pardus, is that needs to boot with live? or i can edit that in Pardus also? | 15:08 |
| geekphreak | aaw cpp_ | 15:08 |
| Dr_Willis | j0hn: yes. ive seen it done in other windos managers also. | 15:08 |
| Dr_Willis | j0hn: or remap extra mouse buttons | 15:08 |
| jack__ | raeesi: i guess it depends on what is installed to your mbr | 15:08 |
| enriq | Pici, aggg I already did it... what do I do now? | 15:08 |
| Dr_Willis | j0hn: for example i got 4 terminals open. I mouse over the terminal icon, and roll the wheel. -> http://www.webupd8.org/2010/05/dockbarx-030-released-with-window.html | 15:09 |
| teurastaja | what do i need to mount/initialise in single-user mode? | 15:09 |
| nocturnus | Dr_Willis: do you know? | 15:09 |
| j0hn | Dr_Willis: ye, i could just click on the window, actually that's what i do, but it is very very slow, keyboard shorcuts are faster | 15:09 |
| enriq | sllide, they warn me not to use -d as this is dev version | 15:09 |
| Codenut | are there any apps to secure on my drive without them being visible? | 15:09 |
| Dr_Willis | j0hn: there IS a feature where you can mouse to a corner and get a expose (showing all the windows in a smaller layout) | 15:09 |
| Zhenya | guys i keep getting kernel panis | 15:09 |
| nocturnus | Dr_Willis: brb | 15:09 |
| Zhenya | panics | 15:09 |
| sllide | well thats a bit late now | 15:09 |
| Zhenya | what can i do? how do i reinstall my kernel or whatever? | 15:09 |
| ima | hello I cant acces my usb hard disk I get a "PolicyKit" error..anyone? | 15:09 |
| Dr_Willis | bbl - :) | 15:09 |
| urlwolf | don't like terminus for kate | 15:10 |
| brah- | such big words | 15:10 |
| brah- | for a LIL man | 15:10 |
| Cynthia | ima: that might be a bug, please search bugs.launchpad.net for relevant information | 15:10 |
| urlwolf | problem is, on kate most monospace fonts don't have bold | 15:10 |
| urlwolf | no idea why | 15:10 |
| babyface1 | what to do if I receive this error "this action would require the installation of packages from not authenticated sources" when installing something from Ubuntu Software center? | 15:10 |
| sipior | Zhenya: when did the kernel panics start? right after install? | 15:10 |
| enriq | when I mount my ntfs partition thousands of i/o errors block me | 15:10 |
| Pici | enriq: As 10.10 isn't open yet, you shouldn't have a problem, but you should make sure it says that its going to upgrade to Lucid | 15:10 |
| urlwolf | on gtk, they do show bold | 15:10 |
| Zhenya | sipior: CORRECT! :D | 15:10 |
| Pici | brah-: Do you have a support question? | 15:10 |
| sipior | brah-: wrong channel, i hope? | 15:10 |
| geekphreak | cpp_: man it sure is wierd , sure a bug | 15:10 |
| daniel_b_ | http://pastie.org/943553 | 15:10 |
| daniel_b_ | i dont see anything wrong with that | 15:10 |
| j0hn | Dr_Willis: ya, i have think on those options, but i am more than accustomed to use Alt+Tab | 15:11 |
| daniel_b_ | but booting still fails | 15:11 |
| enriq | Pici, but without the -d will it install 10.04? | 15:11 |
| cpp_ | geekphreak: pretty sure its a bug ...just not sure about the workaround ... I was thinking.... | 15:11 |
| geekphreak | cpp_: did it ever work? | 15:11 |
| sipior | Zhenya: might simply be dodgy hardware. did the live cd have any trouble running on your computer? | 15:11 |
| Berk | anyone know about 10.04 64bit and flash issues? i upgraded from 9.10, without any apparent problems, but now i can't view flash content, all yesterday when i had firefox prompting me to install missing plugins, it wouldn't show any plugins that i could install. today it's bringing up flash, gnome sfw player and gnash, when selecting to install flash it tells me that it's already installed and still won't load the content | 15:11 |
| Pici | enriq: use -c to upgrade to a new release. | 15:11 |
| teurastaja | anyone could just tell me about the single-user booting process in ubuntu? ive done it on freebsd and fedora but i dont think its the same on ubuntu | 15:11 |
| wizard_ | Berk: install adobeflash-nonfree or whatever its called in teh repos. | 15:11 |
| Zhenya | i didnt do a live cd upgrade | 15:11 |
| Zhenya | went straight through kpackage | 15:12 |
| Zhenya | i cam from 9.10 | 15:12 |
| Cynthia | Berk: if you understand the risks of beta software, you can get 64-bit Flash 10 beta for Linux from Adobe Labs <http://labs.adobe.com/> | 15:12 |
| enriq | sllide, apparently the correct option is -c | 15:12 |
| cerneula | hello, I have just installed ubuntu 10.04 on a hp compaq dc7800 but I get no sound at all. Everything seems to be alright, but no sound. Could anybody help? Thank you | 15:12 |
| j0hn | Dr_Willis: could you set your Alt+Tab hotkey to Alt+Caps lock just to see if it happens the same thing that happens to me? | 15:12 |

| enriq | help me to mount a corrupted ntfs partition (many i/o errors when I do) | 15:12 |
| Zhenya | sipior: I never had this problem before the upgrade | 15:12 |
| geekphreak | ok cpp_ | 15:12 |
| cpp_ | geekphreak: It didn't work perfectly in Ubuntu 8.04 ... but the workaround was just to push the "refresh" button ...and everything worked. | 15:12 |
| wizard_ | bracki: do you use a GUI or a CLI? If GUI, just un mark the package in Synaptic. | 15:13 |

| wizard_ | bracki: sudo apt-get purge packagename? | 15:13 |
| bracki | no, neither | 15:13 |
| bracki | that's why im asking | 15:14 |
| geekphreak | amir_varasteh: always backup while working with partitions | 15:14 |
| teurastaja | 4th try: help for ubuntu specifics on single-user booting process | 15:14 |
| cpp_ | geekphreak: I'm just having config. difficulties with the MAILDIR-sync software ...that comes with Ubuntu ...there seems to be no exmaple-files ...and the "grammer" of it, is not well documented. | 15:14 |
| wizard_ | bracki: sudo apt-get remove flashplugin-installer ? | 15:14 |
| amir_varasteh | geekphreak : how can i get backup ? if my home formated , how can i recover it ? | 15:14 |
| sipior | Zhenya: i've never used kpackage, sorry. you might try grabbing a live cd and see if it doesn't exhibit the same problems. | 15:14 |
| stliu | histo, i have a properties file (e.g. a=b), then how do i get "b" with grep or perl or sed? | 15:15 |
| Zhenya | sipior: the problem is so erratic that i cant reproduce it on demand | 15:15 |
| geekphreak | amir_varasteh: backup to external / dvd online? | 15:15 |
| Zhenya | do you know if there is a method to rewrite the kernel? | 15:15 |
| cpp_ | geekphreak: (I'm using "isync") | 15:15 |
| Pici | StrangeCharm: gnuplot or octave? | 15:15 |
| bracki | Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) | 15:15 |
| StrangeCharm | Pici, are they easy to use? | 15:15 |
| WXZ | I have a problem with vbox resolution | 15:15 |
| Pici | StrangeCharm: I don't remember :/ | 15:16 |
| WXZ | when I change the resolution to 1024x768 the screen resizes | 15:16 |
| amir_varasteh | geekphreak: dvd | 15:16 |
| WXZ | http://imgur.com/mYTG8&XdsTv&VJe6G | 15:16 |
| wizard_ | bracki: can you open X and just use synaptic? Much easier. | 15:16 |
| sipior | Zhenya: what exactly would you rewrite it with? if you need to, you may want to go back to 9.10, if it was stable for you. that will necessitate a reinstall, however. | 15:16 |
| amir_varasteh | geekphreak: just write home data into dvd ? | 15:16 |
| WXZ | pic 1 is what it looks like at the highest rest; pic 2 is what happens when I change the res; pic 3 is what I want it to look like | 15:16 |
| j0hn | I have a problem changing the Alt+Tab hotkey to Alt+Caps Lock, switching between windows it will only change between 2 windows =S, anyone? | 15:17 |
| geekphreak | amir_varasteh: any important data that you wana backup, like emails/address book, your download/bookmarks | 15:17 |
| Oer | WXZ, did you insall guest-additions ? | 15:17 |
| WXZ | yes | 15:17 |
| Zhenya | sipior: i am a n00b so my question maybe badly written, but i thought maybe my kernel was corrupted during dl/writing | 15:17 |
| Zhenya | and just wante to reinstall it | 15:17 |
| AI_theos | hey i get this message when i try to install harpia through synaptic "harpia: Depends: libcv-dev but it is not going to be installed" | 15:17 |
| WXZ | setting it to the res I want (1024x768) and then resizing the window doesn't work | 15:17 |
| amir_varasteh | geekphreak: and if home has been formatted , then what should i do ? | 15:17 |
| wizard_ | Zhenya: probably not a kernal error. Just reinstall from CD or USB, or UNetbootin. | 15:17 |
| sipior | Zhenya: you're currently running the final release of 10.04, right? | 15:18 |
| Cynthia | bracki: Did you install Flash Player outside of the package system? Also, please try each of the following packages: flashplugin flashplugin-installer flashplugin-nonfree - they should be aliases for each other, but you never know | 15:18 |
| geekphreak | amir_varasteh: alwys have a backup partition, why dont people make it :) | 15:18 |
| Zhenya | sipior: correct | 15:18 |
| j0hn | I have a problem changing the Alt+Tab hotkey to Alt+Caps Lock, switching between windows it will only change between 2 windows =S http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1469783, anyone? | 15:18 |
| Zhenya | wizard_: will that delete my whole OS? | 15:18 |
| wizard_ | amir_varasteh: there may not be much you can do. Some software can recover lost files, however. | 15:18 |
| wizard_ | Zhenya: yes, isnt that waht you want? | 15:18 |
| Maddeth1 | geekphreak: some people dont have enough partition space ;) | 15:18 |
| westinghouse | is there a ubuntu version for drifters? | 15:18 |
| sobersabre | sipior: what do you mean by "it" ? | 15:18 |
| AI_theos | any help? | 15:19 |
| wizard_ | Zhenya: it will reinstall the OS. Backup your data and reinstall. | 15:19 |
| Pici | j0hn: Have you looked through the options in System>Preferences>keyboard? Through the advanced options? | 15:19 |
| geekphreak | Maddeth1: ubuntuone and other options there :d | 15:19 |
| Zhenya | just want to fix the problem :P | 15:19 |
| sipior | sobersabre: the dns response, of course. | 15:19 |
| sobersabre | sipior: if it is, I was supposed to see a dns A and PTR entries added on the server. right ? | 15:19 |
| sipior | westinghouse: drifters? hobos and such? | 15:19 |
| bracki | wizard_: Doesnt work | 15:19 |
| wizard_ | Zhenya: didnt you say there was some sort of kernal error after installing? Just reinstall and make sure your DVD or CD wasnt corrupted. Check the md5 hash. | 15:19 |
| sobersabre | (as you're guessing, it isn't happening) | 15:20 |
| kmdm | Hey all - anyone got any advice for things I can do to try and upgrade a 1and1 colo server from 8.04 to 10.04 ? post-upgrade it doesn't come back up and I don't have a serial console to see what's going on... :-/ | 15:20 |
| wizard_ | bracki: using synaptic doesnt work? I find that hard to believe unless you've done something weird to the system. | 15:20 |
| sobersabre | I tried to increase logging verbosity of the DNS service, but this doesn't work for some reason) | 15:20 |
| Zhenya | wizard_: all i know that once in a while my computer will get a black screen with a non movable cursur and the caps lock light will be blinking | 15:20 |
| AI_theos | should i repeat my question? | 15:20 |
| bracki | It cannot solve the problem | 15:20 |
| Zhenya | seems to have more frequently with amorok running | 15:20 |
| aapzak | running amd64 lucid and I want to install some 32bits libs. Why does sudo dpkg -i --force-architecture packagename_i386.deb not install in some libs32 directory? | 15:20 |
| sipior | sobersabre: yes, but if you changed those entries, the client may still be making use of the old values. | 15:20 |
| westinghouse | i need a special ubuntu version for drifters | 15:20 |
| geekphreak | cpp_: still there? | 15:21 |
| penguin42 | aapzak: It's not that smart | 15:21 |
| wizard_ | westinghouse: say that so it makes sense. | 15:21 |
| sipior | westinghouse: perhaps you could be clearer about what you mean. | 15:21 |
| AI_theos | aint i visible? | 15:21 |
| Pici | westinghouse: You know the rules of this channel, please try to make sense. | 15:21 |
| aapzak | penguin42: is there any way to force it? | 15:21 |
| penguin42 | aapzak: If you want 32bit libs on ubuntu you have to install 32bit specific libs; e.g. ia32libs | 15:21 |
| wizard_ | westinghouse: CrunchBang Linux. | 15:21 |
| cpp_ | geekphreak: oh yes :-) | 15:21 |
| aapzak | penguin42: I have those but need libmotif too | 15:21 |
| cpp_ | geekphreak: I'm waiting for a miracle :-D | 15:21 |
| wizard_ | AI_theos: yes, all in one line. If somone doesnt answer be patient an ask in a few minutes. | 15:21 |
| geekphreak | cpp_: i got another idea :d | 15:21 |
| wizard_ | !ask | 15:21 |
| ubottu | Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 15:21 |
| cpp_ | geekphreak: cool...I'm all ears :-) | 15:21 |
| westinghouse | it has to be lightweight | 15:22 |
| geekphreak | cpp_: the emails that you trying to download, just have attachment, no message/text inside it? | 15:22 |
| sobersabre | sipior: my idea of "DNS update" is to attempt and connecto to a dns service with something. | 15:22 |
| AI_theos | hey i get this message when i try to install harpia through synaptic "harpia: Depends: libcv-dev but it is not going to be installed" | 15:22 |
| penguin42 | aapzak: Ah, I sympathise, but there's no easy way - what you can do is extract a 32bit deb into a tar by hand and untar it in your own subdirectory | 15:22 |
| westinghouse | becaause the more programs installed, more heavy it is | 15:22 |
| wizard_ | westinghouse: Google CrunchBang. | 15:22 |
| sobersabre | so basically I am supposed to see some traffic to the dns service. right ? | 15:22 |
| sipior | sobersabre: yes, indeed. | 15:22 |
| aapzak | penguin42: ok, I can do that. Was affraid it would be something like that. Thanks | 15:23 |
| penguin42 | aapzak: The Fedora approach to 32/64 works a lot better | 15:23 |
| cpp_ | geekphreak: nope ... some have attachments ...some don't ... all usually have a body text ... if anything, then sometimes just the "signature" | 15:23 |
| Oer | westinghouse, install only the programms you need, as i never heard about slowing down ubuntu when installing a lot of software. | 15:23 |
| sobersabre | sipior: trying.., | 15:24 |
| wizard_ | Oer: he means size not speed, I assume. MOre apps does not make something slower. | 15:24 |
| geekphreak | cpp_: add there address to addressbook , just incase , ummm , tried using to do via another account? | 15:24 |
| z0rt|work | are any of you experiencing video crashes with lucid? | 15:24 |

| Wipster | aloha, got a bit of a problem I try and install a driver for my printer and it says unmet dependancy libcupsys2 so I try and install it, but it seems to redirect to libcups2 | 15:26 |
| Wipster | will my program break or can I tell it about the rename? | 15:26 |
| ritus | the package name is pips-snx110 | 15:26 |
| IsmAvatar | help. I uninstalled hal, because I thought it wasn't needed anymore, and now I can't get past the purple boot screen. I tried reinstalling hal and xorg and xserver, but still... | 15:26 |
| cpp_ | geekphreak: yes (I have several computers here ... and virtual environments ...and _all_ is not working) | 15:27 |
| aapzak | penguin42: funny you should say that, I'm a OS hopper and hop between ubuntu and fedore nowadays | 15:27 |
| acicula | Wipster, libraries often use symlinking its normal | 15:27 |
| z0rt|work | my home box is win7/ubuntu and i haven't really found a need to boot into win7 lately | 15:28 |
| ritus | and it is a driver for epson stylus dx4450 | 15:28 |
| Wipster | acicula, so can I install the .deb and just ignore the dependency wanrnings? | 15:28 |
| acicula | IsmAvatar, hal is removed on upgrade | 15:28 |
| acicula | IsmAvatar, there should be no need to add it yourself? | 15:28 |
| acicula | err ermove | 15:28 |
| acicula | Winball, no | 15:28 |
| geekphreak | well bbl | 15:28 |
| runa | heyas. I upgraded to Lucid and now my localtime is 1 hour before it should be. I'm in GMT-3, I configured it in tzdata but nothing changed, it evens shows: Universal Time is now: Mon May 3 14:28:24 UTC 2010. / Local time is now: Mon May 3 17:28:24 GMT-3 2010. which makes no sense (is GMT-3 not +3!). Any hints? | 15:28 |
| acicula | err Winball no | 15:28 |
| anon__ | hey guys. i want to start programming with gtk+. is there a way to install everything i need from the software-center? | 15:29 |
| anon__ | what would i need to install? | 15:29 |
| acicula | Wipster, dependencies are not quite the same as libraries, though they are similar in purpose | 15:29 |
| IsmAvatar | acicula, on upgrade, hal was not removed. | 15:29 |
| IsmAvatar | acicula, so I removed it myself, and now I can't get past the purple boot screen. | 15:29 |
| Dr_Willis | anon__: the apt-get build-deps for a gtk app would pull in most everythign needed to build that specicic ap.. and thus for most other gtk apps as well | 15:29 |
| kaie | with ubuntu 10.04, my box fails to boot into osx (worked with 9.10). osx automatically reboots immediately. osx needs boot parameter "cpus=1", and I suspect the latest grub fails to pass that on, despite being used in the grub script. | 15:29 |
| eduran | hi to everybody! | 15:29 |
| IsmAvatar | apparently x still needs hal | 15:30 |
| Wipster | acicula, ok - dpkg doesn;t want to configure the package untill it sees that dep, which ofcourse I cant get | 15:30 |
| Chiang | how to check version on ubuntu? | 15:30 |
| Dr_Willis | anon__: ie: --> sudo apt-get build-dep gnome-terminal | 15:30 |
| leagris | runa, do you dualboot with Windows. Windows set system clock to locale time and linux default to setting localetime to GMT. | 15:30 |
| _pg_ | Chiang: system, admin, about ubuntu i think | 15:30 |
| acicula | Wicked, why not, typically dependencies are resolved via the repositories, if that is not the case you may be trying to install a deb package manually not appropriate for your ubuntu version | 15:30 |
| jimmy51_ | is there a command that will force the re-installation of all of the video components? | 15:30 |
| leagris | runa, linux default to setting _system clock_ to GMT | 15:30 |
| anon__ | thanks :) | 15:31 |
| Chiang | how to check the version of ubuntu in the terminal? | 15:31 |
| acicula | Wicet, you can ignore dependencies and hope it will still work but the dependency manager will continiously wimper about the missing dependency, even if you manually drop a library/link it to something that does provide the dependency | 15:31 |
| _pg_ | Chiang: ah. couldnt tell ya | 15:31 |

| zagabar | I have a domain name (pallkars.net) that points to the IP of my server. The server runs ubuntu. Is there a way that I can point a subdomain of the domain (klopp.pallkars.net) to a second server that does not have an external IP, but an internal one under the first server through ICS(192.168.0.4)? Like using virtual hosts or something to point the traffic from a subdomain to that internal IP or something. Ideas? | 15:31 |
| _pg_ | Pici: good to know | 15:31 |
| Chiang | thanks | 15:32 |
| acicula | Wipster, see above to Wicked/Wicet | 15:32 |
| runa | leagris: no dualboot, just linux | 15:32 |
| anon__ | the package build-dep doesnt exist | 15:32 |
| Wipster | acicula, keep going you will eventually get my name lol, the problem is the deb wants libcupsys2 but in ubuntu libcupsys2 forwards to libcups2 | 15:32 |
| === GodFather_ is now known as GodFather | ||

| antonio_ | hi, sudo apt-get install -d package, now where is it? | 15:33 |
| acicula | zagabar, or in your case with ics just port forwarding will seem to do the trick | 15:33 |

| keith_hanson | Hi all :) I just got the latest ubuntu desktop, and am attempting to switch to awesome for my window manager. I was curious if anyone knows the utilities that run during the default gnome boot that enable sound? | 15:33 |
| leagris | runa does the problem solves if you sync your clock to an NTP server with: sudo ntpdate pool.ntp.org && sudo hwclock --systohc ? | 15:33 |

| zagabar | acicula: but in what config file do I set a subdomain to point to a internal IP? What terms can I use to google forth info about it? | 15:34 |
| chiggavelli | can somebody gimme default 10.04 repository list? | 15:34 |
| acicula | zagabar, a subdomain does not resolve to an internal ip | 15:34 |
| acicula | zagabar, its an external reference system to an interal adress, its simply not possible | 15:35 |
| balkierode | I wanna download ubuntu 10.04. I've a poor internet connection. Which ubuntu mirror support partial download and resume option. | 15:35 |

| awaad | Any one can help ? | 15:35 |
| zagabar | acicula: Yeah, but can't I use virtual hosts or something to redirect traffic from a subdomain to a internal IP? | 15:35 |
| IsmAvatar | balkierode: try a torrent | 15:35 |
| acicula | if you want to have myhost.atmydomain.com point to an internal adress you need to use apache vhost to define the myhost on your external ip and reverse proxy it | 15:35 |
| bastid_raZor | balkierode: use torrents instead of a mirror | 15:35 |
| xangua | balkierode: use the torrent | 15:35 |

| chiggavelli | Pici i know that but there is no default list on that trigger !repo | 15:38 |
| IsmAvatar | acicula: you mean recovery? | 15:38 |
| Pici | chiggavelli: Why should there be? | 15:38 |
| MrKeuner | acicula, I did that, somehow it does not do what it is siupposed to do | 15:38 |
| acicula | IsmAvatar, thought it was called rescue mode in grub, recovery on the livecd | 15:39 |

| Cyc` | Hi im running ubuntu 9.10 and I'm trying to create a network bridge but nothing i've tried has worked so far. This is the setup im trying to achieve: Laptop connects to internet through wifi. laptop connects to a switch via lan, ps3 connects to the switch via lan. Both ps3 and laptop have static ip address. The idea being the ps3 connects to the internet through the laptop. And I can stream stuff to ps3 through lan. Any ide | 15:58 |
| Cyc` | as? | 15:58 |
| _pg_ | IsmAvatar: yeah i mean I still can't fly? thats garbage | 15:58 |

| blip- | hi all, I have a desktop running 8.10. What should I expect if I dist-upgrade to 10.4 ? thanks | 16:01 |
| joris_ | Is there a way to specify the path to your private key when you connect to a server with ssh and nautilus? | 16:02 |
| _pg_ | blip-: pure awesomeness duh | 16:02 |
| IsmAvatar | you should expect vast improvements and window buttons to migrate to the left :-p | 16:02 |

| iguanna | are there some command like the 'net send' from windows? | 16:02 |
| ritus | somebody else has any idea to my problem that is that I'm not able to remove a broken package. I had tried with synaptic and on terminal with apt get but dosn't work. The package name is pips-snc110 and it is a driver for epson stylus dx4450 | 16:02 |

| IsmAvatar | bastid_raZor: right click, properties | 16:03 |
| _pg_ | Cyc`: try to get it all working without firewalls first. those can cause issues | 16:03 |
| funkyHat | BaseBallBoy: that will send the output to less so you can scroll up and down the results and search for stuff | 16:03 |
| BaseBallBoy | funkyHat, thanks | 16:03 |
| blip- | _pg_, IsmAvatar: and can I simply dist-upgrade or I must take some additional action since i'm skipping a few intermediate releases ? | 16:03 |
| bastid_raZor | IsmAvatar: that worked for the left half but not where the indicator-applet or other applets reside | 16:03 |
| p1und3r | does anyone know the method of getting 190 NVIDIA drivers to work in 10.04? I can get in only by re-install the NVIDIA package and sudo service gdm start right after, reboot won't work | 16:03 |
| funkyMeta | joris_: If you add an entry to .ssh/config for the server you're connecting to you can specify an identity file there | 16:03 |
| Cyc` | _pg_, i'm not using the firewall I only used to try and use its ics features | 16:04 |
| _pg_ | blip-: you can go right from 8.04 to 10.04 since theyre both lts AFAIK. can someone confirm? | 16:04 |
| acicula | blip-, you cant upgrade to 10.04 from 8.10 | 16:04 |
| Kitsune | Cyc` my advice, connect laptop to wifi, connect ps3 directly to laptop using ethernet ports, use ics, you should be able to setup sharing on the ps3 like that :/ worked for me.. but again that was on winxp and an xbox360... so im not entirely sure how its gonna be for you, since i've never owned a ps3 | 16:04 |
| _pg_ | acicula: ah | 16:04 |
| joris_ | funkyMeta: thanks | 16:04 |
| IsmAvatar | blip-: assume you can just dist-upgrade. If it doesn't do the full upgrade, it'll at least get you from 8.10 to 9.04, and you can just repeat | 16:04 |
| IsmAvatar | I assume* | 16:04 |
| wesguin | it's alot faster to just burn an iso | 16:04 |
| acicula | blip-, you can only skip releases with ubuntu lts, from 8.04 to 10.04 works, from 8.10 you have to upgrade to 9.04,and then 9.10 first | 16:04 |
| Stormcr0w | Hi all. I've activated filesharing on some of my folders (this is a brand new 10.04 installation), but when I restart, filesharing does not work. I have to physically go into folder properties, deactivate it and reactivate it for it to work again. | 16:04 |
| wesguin | unless you got lots of stuff to migrate | 16:05 |

| acicula | Name141, 320Mb is pretty low, and you probably have the matching processor and an older disk. So it must use the harddisk to simulate more memory on a disc which is already slow. so its not really surprising you find it laggy. | 16:27 |

I narrowed it down to the file ~/.gconf/desktop/gnome/applications/window_manager/%gconf.xml In an old version of that file I had 'metacity' where that one had 'compiz', and changing just that fixed it.

| norbi905 | When installing a new card in a system, Ubuntu does not show that it's been install in a way that Windows does with "new hardware detected". Is it safe to assume however that it does show up under /dev? Or how else can I check if Linux has at least detected this new hardware? | 16:56 |

| penguin42 | norbi905: What is it? | 16:57 |

| norbi905 | penguin42, It's a Blackmagic DeckLink card. The hardware vendor does provide linux drivers for it. But for some reason once the driver is installed, the utility software that comes with it still gives me an error about device not being detected. | 16:58 |

| norbi905 | penguin42: I was wrong, you are right, it was in the /etc/udev/rules.d , or something along those lines. It's really strange though, since the driver doesn't get loaded automatically. On a clean boot, if I do lsmod | grep blackmagic, nothing shows up. I have to sudo modprobe blackmagic. Could this be the problem that the hardware doesn't show up upon reboot? In other words, does the driver have to be loaded, before udev rules are execut | 17:04 |
| vik | geekphreak, how about the new opensource driver, noveu, will I need it afterwards? | 17:04 |
| Dr_Willis | caac: No idea. I would guess the icon theme you are using is to blame | 17:04 |
| === IsmAvatar is now known as Dave | ||
| arvind_khadri | qwd, trying #empathy | 17:04 |
| geekphreak | vik: i prefer drivers from repos, they been good too me | 17:04 |
| acicula | lsemple, you probably want the oldest version given the age of your card | 17:04 |
| Stormcr0w | silverdrake11: It might... Did you change any of the settings? Such as resolution, etc? | 17:04 |
| === Dave is now known as Guest47944 | ||
| lsemple | acicula: thats pretty dumb | 17:05 |
| acicula | lsemple, why | 17:05 |
| penguin42 | norbi905: I think the order is that udev rules are executed based on the drivers existing, so it'll probably only use the udev rule after you've done the modprobe | 17:05 |
| lsemple | eventually I will be forced to buy new parts even though these ones are fine | 17:05 |
| acicula | lsemple, nvidia drops support for older graphics cards with newer drivers | 17:05 |
| geekphreak | vik: do this, press ctrl+alt+f2, then login | 17:05 |
| acicula | lsemple, you can still use the open source noveau driver | 17:05 |
| lsemple | new vid card, new mb = new psu, new case probably, new everything | 17:05 |
| geekphreak | vik: ctrl+alt+f7 for gui mode ok, while working just incase u did not know | 17:05 |
| uLinux | Is there a way to download Apple trailer using Ubuntu? -.- | 17:06 |
| uLinux | trailers | 17:06 |
| norbi905 | penguin42: Thanks for your input. Really strange since they do support Linux. I might just fire off an email to them. Is there a safe way to restart udev? /etc/init.d/udev restart ? | 17:06 |
| silverdrake11 | Stormcr0w, I'm pretty sure I just changed the default OS, and the boot time. Is there a way to reset grub? | 17:06 |
| Juzzy | my /etc/init/statd.conf says "start on (started portmap or mounting TYPE=nfs)" portmap is running and statd is not (from reboot) | 17:06 |
| geekphreak | uLinux: flv files? | 17:06 |
| Juzzy | if i restart portmap, it'll start statd | 17:06 |
| penguin42 | norbi905: Support fo r'linux' is misleading - they normally need to tweek stuff for every version if they have their own driver | 17:06 |
| Dr_Willis | geekphreak: not at apples site. :) | 17:06 |
| uLinux | geekphreak .mov | 17:06 |
| kjele | uLinux: You can search for them in tmp files | 17:06 |
| Carlis | I have a blackberry 8100. I want to check my email. The username and password are correct but can´t check my email. How can i fix this issue ? | 17:07 |
| Juzzy | anyone know why statd wont start on reboot? | 17:07 |
| IsmAvatar | meh | 17:07 |
| mark1 | hi how do i run a folder on the network | 17:07 |
| geekphreak | Dr_Willis: right mov. | 17:07 |
| vik | geekphreak, what about that console login, why I need it?? | 17:07 |
| uLinux | geekphreak apple site uses user agent and stuff i changed it.. but i cant download | 17:07 |
| Pici | Carlis: How is this related to Ubuntu? | 17:07 |
| geekphreak | uLinux: you can use video downloader addon | 17:07 |
| Dr_Willis | mark1: clarify what you mean. you dont 'run' a folder. | 17:07 |
| Stormcr0w | silverdrake11: there is a way to reinstall it, which will eventually reset it, but it's quite risky, depending on your setup. | 17:07 |
| uLinux | kjele where is the tmp folder? | 17:07 |
| mark1 | sorry, open a network directory | 17:07 |
| IsmAvatar | I uninstalled hal and now I can't get past the purple boot screen. I tried reinstalling hal and xorg and xserver, but I'm still stuck at the same spot. | 17:07 |
| Carlis | It´s no related to Ubuntu but I need help anyway | 17:07 |
| uLinux | kjele but if it didnt download there is no tmp files .P | 17:07 |
| geekphreak | vik: login to it , we will test it, restart gdm | 17:07 |
| norbi905 | penguin42: You are right, however, Ubuntu 9.04 is on the list. Although I'v only tried it with 9.10 and 10.04. Maybe going down to 9.04 might work, but I don't see much difference between that and 9.10. Although I know nothing about Linux, so I'm probably wrong. | 17:08 |

| _jesse_ | uLinux: he means if you watch the video in flash in your browser, it should be in the tmp files somewhere | 17:08 |
| penguin42 | norbi905: At the driver level it could easily be different enough | 17:08 |
| vik | geekphreak, how to restart gdm | 17:08 |
| uLinux | ye-- | 17:08 |
| IsmAvatar | !java | JenniferB | 17:08 |
| ubottu | JenniferB: To install a Java runtime/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java products search for sun-java6 -packages from the !Multiverse repository (!partner repository in Lucid) | 17:08 |
| kjele | uLinux: /tmp or the mozilla tmp ~/.mozilla/firefox | 17:08 |
| lsemple | acicula:Im gonna start making my own video card and my own software for it | 17:08 |
| CPPJ | Hi guys! | 17:08 |
| wbmj | JenniferB: sun-java6 is in the Partners' repo | 17:09 |
| caac | Dr_Willis, manually readding it fixes it though :/ | 17:09 |
| norbi905 | penguin42: Thanks for your time. Will give 9.04 a try. | 17:09 |
| Carlis | I go to blackberry support but they don´t talk | 17:09 |
| lsemple | everytime I upgrade my OS I have to upgrade my hardware too ? | 17:09 |
| geekphreak | vik: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart | 17:09 |
| kjele | uLinux: The latter is a bit hidden. Best to delete all cache with ctrl shift delete | 17:09 |
| lsemple | I think it should be illegal to "drop support" for hardware. | 17:09 |

| silverdrake11 | Stormcr0w, yea i guess ill just live with it then.... | 17:09 |
| penguin42 | norbi905: If it works on 9.04 ask them for support on newer Ubuntu and remind them that 10.04 is a 'long time support' version so it's worth them doing it | 17:09 |
| norbi905 | penguin42: Will do, thank you. | 17:10 |

| VectorX | hi, i need to create split zip volumes, what is the best util for that and the way to do it ? | 17:10 |
| Stormcr0w | silverdrake11: you can try rebuilding your boot.cfg outside your startupmanager and see if that helps | 17:10 |
| deostroll | hi can any1 tell me how to use "unzip" to unzip the contents of a zip file to a directory/folder... | 17:10 |

| overmacht | happy lucid lynx everyone | 17:12 |
| kjele | IsmAvatar: Try remove ubuntu-desktop and install it again. Not reinstall option | 17:12 |
| JenniferB | archive.canonical.com/ubuntu karmic partner ? | 17:12 |
| geekphreak | vik: welcome back | 17:13 |
| Stormcr0w | MikeGuo: Sounds like there is a general plymouth issue with 10.04 for many people | 17:13 |
| geekphreak | vik: all ok? | 17:13 |
| MikeGuo | Stormcr0w, yes. I think so, very strange | 17:13 |
| vik | geekphreak, hi my resolution is bad | 17:13 |
| Stereocaulon | overmacht, Iḿ still on Karmic for various reasons | 17:13 |
| IsmAvatar | kjele: Package ubuntu-desktop is not installed, so not removed | 17:13 |
| MikeGuo | Stormcr0w, you got that issue too? | 17:13 |
| vik | geekphreak, I cannot fix it anyhow | 17:13 |
| Stormcr0w | MikeGuo: Similar | 17:13 |
| soreau | ok so I found I need Indicator Applet to provide the volume icon on gnome-panel but it also adds some annoying envelope icon I don't need | 17:13 |
| kjele | IsmAvatar: Then install it | 17:13 |
| geekphreak | vik: it gives you option to crete a new setting, when you logint o it , right | 17:13 |
| haavaros | I just made a forum thread about my video problems in 10.04... fullscreen is really laggy and jittery. If anyone has any ideas, pls look at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1471162 | 17:13 |

| silverdrake11 | Stormcr0w, nope didnt work | 17:13 |
| vik | geekphreak, no nothing like that | 17:14 |
| Dr_Willis | CPPJ: for starters for a nvidia video - You should go to the System -> admininatration -> Hardware Drivers tool and see if it finds any drivers for your video card. | 17:14 |
| geekphreak | vik: ok open terminal | 17:14 |
| soreau | what application is putting this envelope icon in my indicator tray? seems not to be evolution or thunderbird | 17:14 |
| MikeGuo | Stormcr0w, ok. look like this is a normal issue in lucid. | 17:14 |
| geekphreak | vik: lets bring the file back | 17:14 |
| penguin42 | is there actually a server CD image? It's really not obvious how to find it | 17:14 |

| sartan | A general philosophical question I suppose; "LTS" for 10.04 sort of implies stability; not so much cutting edge stuff. I'm a big fan of newness! Should I stick with 9.10? | 17:15 |
| Stereocaulon | wazzaaaaa, What kind of help do you need? | 17:15 |
| C-S-B-N900 | urgh, anyone good with hotkeys? eject key on my vaio doesnt work unless i create a new instance and assign the eject cmd to it | 17:15 |

| silverdrake11 | Stormcr0w, well do you want me to? Or do you have to go now? | 17:15 |
| Theravadan | sartan, you can upgrade to 10.9 when it comes out | 17:15 |
| vik | geekphreak, the file should be back | 17:15 |
| penguin42 | sartan: the LTS is only that it will be supported longer | 17:15 |
| Stormcr0w | silverdrake11: I'll be back in roughly 10 minutes, if you can wait | 17:15 |
| nprasath002 | hi, i want set file permissions graphically by right clicking in the windows go to properties and setting permissions. but it says you are not the owner. i did,nt get it. i,m the only user. how to change permisions graphically | 17:15 |
| geekphreak | vik: did you mv it back? | 17:15 |
| C-S-B-N900 | Theravadan: 10.09? | 17:15 |
| sartan | yeah, i guess i'm just looking at it with 'too' big of a picture :) | 17:15 |
| jhaig | sartan: LTS means Long Term Support, so you will keep getting security updates and patches for longer than with other releases (until 2013, I think). | 17:15 |
| wazzaaaaa | on 9.04 i set something to probe as 15 , but i dont know what and where , and that worked :( | 17:16 |
| sartan | it's like sticking with php4 out of principle! | 17:16 |
| Theravadan | C-S-B-N900, i made thatup | 17:16 |
| gorski | please why 10.04 update is not in update manager? | 17:16 |
| vik | geekphreak, sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf.disabled /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 17:16 |
| C-S-B-N900 | ok. | 17:16 |
| geekphreak | vik: you had to rename it xorg.conf.disabled to xorg.conf ok | 17:16 |
| silverdrake11 | Stormcr0w, sure Ill wait | 17:16 |
| sartan | gotcha. thanks guys! | 17:16 |
| geekphreak | vik: right | 17:16 |
| vik | geekphreak, what's next? | 17:16 |
| Stormcr0w | silverdrake11: ok. In the meantime, someone else might also have an idea | 17:16 |
| Stormcr0w | silverdrake11: :) | 17:16 |
| Stormcr0w | silverdrake11: speak later | 17:16 |
| geekphreak | vik: it mostly, works , we cna always try other way , thats why i always create backups :d | 17:16 |
| Stereocaulon | sartan, actually a LTS-release has to be a bit bleeding edge, because it needs to look ahead and be useful for at least 3 years. That's also why it sometimes includes unfinished software. Take Firefox Beta 2 in 8.04 for instance | 17:16 |
| geekphreak | Pici: is there a command to get that dialog up ? | 17:17 |
| vik | geekphreak, it's ok, should i restart or sth | 17:17 |
| sartan | second question does the disk installer work with software dmraid / lvm volumes? I read a few horror stories... | 17:17 |

| Eng__Muslim | any 1 can help me | 17:19 |
| IsmAvatar | kjele: you're awesome. Installing ubuntu-desktop fixed it. Yay, happy. | 17:19 |

| sorm | I need help installing spawn-fcgi on Ubuntu 8.04.4 LTS (hardy) i868. If I enter "apt-get install spawn-fcgi", it says "E: Couldn't find package spawn-fcgi". What to do? | 17:22 |
| flansuse | geekphreak, that's GUI-based? | 17:22 |
| geekphreak | flansuse: cli | 17:22 |
| jongbergs | Mcl0vin: press alt+f2 then type gconftool-2 --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-session | 17:22 |
| Pici | bastid_raZor: ~6 months from now. | 17:22 |
| wazzaaaaa | lol p1und3r ;) any ways the question is , my webcam isnt detected | 17:22 |
| panix | i think ubuntu is pretty iroinc too :-) | 17:22 |
| gavagai | How do i burn an audio cd from wav files?? brasero doesn't even let me drag and drop .wav. rhythymbox does nothing at all if i create a wav playlist and click 'create cd'. | 17:22 |
| bastid_raZor | Pici: thank you | 17:23 |
| flansuse | geekphreak, I was wondering if there is a GUI tool for configuring services, like how Jaunty had services-admin. | 17:23 |
| jongbergs | Mcl0vin: this will reset the panels to default settings | 17:23 |
| andrew____ | Why has ubuntu gotten rid of my window borders? <_< | 17:23 |
| wazzaaaaa | upgraded from 9.04 to 10.04 ... | 17:23 |
| geekphreak | bastid_raZor: morning | 17:23 |
| p1und3r | wazzaaaa: just for shits and giggles, sudo apt-get install cheese, and try to open cheese | 17:23 |
| andrew____ | Like the part at the top | 17:23 |
| bastid_raZor | geekphreak: afternoon | 17:23 |
| Dr_Willis | flansuse: not really seen a gui one that uses upstart settings | 17:23 |
| geekphreak | flansuse: sysv-rc-conf is gui try that | 17:23 |
| flansuse | geekphreak, I know it was removed in Karmic since it was not "upstart compliant" but I thought maybe they'd reintroduce it back into the LTS release. | 17:23 |
| qwd | arvind_khadri: I tried setting up sip a few months ago and frankly it's a POS in my opinion. Didn't have any luck so I gave up. Let's hope the xmpp clients get their act together and provide usable voip soon. | 17:23 |
| Carlis | I have a blackberry 8100. I want to check my email. The username and password are correct but can´t check my email. How can i fix this issue ? | 17:23 |
| flansuse | geekphreak, oh yeah? Nice! Thank you. | 17:23 |
| wazzaaaaa | and webcams gone. had the same problem with 9.04 and set some parameter in dev to 15 but i forgot which one :( | 17:24 |
| geekphreak | flansuse: welcome | 17:24 |
| wazzaaaaa | is any one reading :) | 17:24 |
| sburwood | I have a question ... I have a Nokia 5530. I want to put a version of Linux on it. Is that possible and without danger? | 17:24 |
| p1und3r | wazzaaaaa: when i was messing with my webcam, i installed cheese and it magically worked | 17:24 |
| sartan | :D | 17:24 |
| Dr_Willis | wazzaaaaa: No. :) | 17:24 |
| gorski | Pici: it is selected for LTS release update. | 17:24 |
| flansuse | geekphreak, wait, byt sysv-rc-conf is not upstart compliant, right? | 17:24 |
| sburwood | and am I on the right channel for an answer | 17:24 |
| qwd | Installation of Ubuntu 10.04 hangs at 89% on HP Pavilion zd7150ea. The laptop used to have 9.04 which worked just fine. I decided to upgrade to 10.04 so I downloaded ubuntu-10.04-desktop-i386.iso and did a clean install, removing everything from the hard drive. At 89% when it says "looking for packages to remove" the installation hangs. | 17:24 |
| wazzaaaaa | Dr_Wills ;) | 17:24 |
| sorm | I don't know how to find the correct source for spawn-fcgi. All google results are just using apt-get | 17:24 |
| geekphreak | vik: back to you , there are other ways too, which is being used >> chck >> system>>admin >> hardware drivers | 17:24 |
| Resno | !ask | sburwood | 17:24 |
| Dr_Willis | flansuse: no its not. | 17:24 |
| ubottu | sburwood: 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. :-) | 17:24 |
| CPPJ | Dr_Willis: no worries Doc. Thanks! | 17:24 |
| wazzaaaaa | p1und3r , cheese says no webcam found :( | 17:25 |
| szymon | sburwood: Yes | 17:25 |
| flansuse | Dr_Willis, darn. I miss being able to configure services in a GUI, rather than resorting to command line. | 17:25 |
| p1und3r | wazzaaaaa: ahhh | 17:25 |
| panix | the change in the default for the buttons on new ubuntu seems to be a top feture every review seem to be talking about it :P | 17:25 |
| arvind_khadri | qwd, thats very freaky... | 17:25 |
| Dr_Willis | flansuse: for upstart. enable/disable is renaming one file. | 17:25 |
| sburwood | szymon: Can you explain how? | 17:25 |
| Dr_Willis | flansuse: no fancy links or other things to worry about. | 17:25 |
| geekphreak | hmm ok | 17:25 |
| szymon | ok, wait | 17:25 |
| gavagai | panix, yeah it is the most brilliant advance in usability since the wheel | 17:25 |
| flansuse | Dr_Willis, in each of the rc#.d directories, right? | 17:25 |
| ViaNocturna85 | i have been testing lucid since beta 2, and done all updates since, but i still have no cam which i did in karmic, its built into my laptop, any suggestions? | 17:25 |
| arvind_khadri | qwd, try alternate cd | 17:26 |
| Dr_Willis | flansuse: not with upstart.. Upstart services use /etc/init/* | 17:26 |
| vik | geekphreak, I do not understant that way | 17:26 |
| wazzaaaaa | so if any of you can tell where do i set that something to 15 so at boot my webcam is probed with 15 whatever :P | 17:26 |
| Dr_Willis | flansuse: slowly all the services are getting moved to 'upstart' type scripts | 17:26 |
| fiendishfish | Hi, I'm stuck in the initramfs shell at the moment, and need to edit a file (/proc/cmdline) to hopefully fix something; however, I can't find a text editor (such as vi) any ideas? | 17:26 |
| Dr_Willis | flansuse: theres still some that use the old rc#.d stuff. | 17:26 |
| ceno | hey guys. anyone know of a firefox theme that blends in better with the ambiance theme? like the one for the dust theme? | 17:26 |
| CPPJ | Anybody can help? Problem: trying to connect laptop to HD-TV via HDMI and nothing comes up on screen... graphics card is an nvidia quadro. | 17:26 |
| lsemple | another question: after installing / changing / testing video card drivers (nvidia) over and over, my splash screen has been broken | 17:26 |
| flansuse | panix, I know what you mean. And it's not consistent either, since different themes have them on either the left or right. And it gets confusing when you go from one distro and back. | 17:26 |
| kjele | nprasath002: Anyway the way to claim owner ship is sudo chown yourusername:yourusername thefilename | 17:26 |
| lsemple | it looks like its in 256 color mode now, | 17:26 |
| panix | i just love the thinking of we need space to put some random stuff that we dont even know what it is so lets change the buttons now and think abot it latert_= | 17:26 |
| lsemple | not that it matters, but it looks like hell when I boot up and makes me unsure of my computer in general | 17:27 |
| flansuse | Dr_Willis, does this mean Lucid will never have a GUI to manage services? I can use the terminal, but for others, Ubuntu is supposed to hide the terminal for basic configurations. | 17:27 |
| szymon | In 6 months ago i started Windows 98 in Dosbox. You are running it in emulator and it's sage | 17:27 |
| szymon | safe* | 17:27 |
| gavagai | panix, yeah i read the flamefest and found absolutely no coherent rationale for the change except 'it makes space'. oh, wow, really? moving something from left to right opens up space on the opposite side? I NEVER REALIZED!!! | 17:27 |
| lsemple | is there a way to reset the splash screen to the default crisp looking one that came with xubuntu 10.04 /?? | 17:27 |
| Dr_Willis | flansuse: whats MORE annoying is that deoending on the order you 'try out themes' you an get a theme that has the buttons on the left, (if you slect it after you are using a left button theme) OR on teh right.. if you select it after 'some' right button themes.. | 17:27 |
| Dr_Willis | gavagai: see --> http://www.webupd8.org/2010/05/window-indicators-windicators-coming-to.html | 17:28 |
| gavagai | Dr_Willis, thanks | 17:28 |
| Dr_Willis | flansuse: Lucid dosnt have it now.. and basically things are 'frozen' so if any get added it will not be offical stuff. | 17:28 |
| geekphreak | Dr_Willis: for some reason, it never bothered me, left/right, dont make a diffference here | 17:28 |
| nprasath002 | kjele:thanks a lt | 17:28 |
| szymon | Somebody from poland? | 17:28 |
| AryanA | hi everyone. im a newbie on networking. i want to ssh from my laptop to my pc via internet. i have ubuntu on both of them. please help! | 17:28 |
| qwd | arvind_khadri: Unfortunately Skype seems to be the best solution right now even if it's proprietary. Or maybe you can try running Google Talk in Wine. And yeah I'll give the alternate-install a shot. | 17:28 |
| Dr_Willis | geekphreak: it definatly does here. but the netbook edition has the close button basically in the middle. :) | 17:28 |
| gavagai | Dr_Willis, i just read that. where is the part where it explains why adding indicators requires switching the button locations? | 17:29 |
| flansuse | Dr_Willis, I agree. I'm sorry, as much as I respect Ubuntu and the wonderful community, the menu buttons thing was just absolutely stupid on so many levels: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/light-themes/+bug/532633/comments/71 | 17:29 |
| geekphreak | Dr_Willis: right mate | 17:29 |
| bcurtiswx | anyone know how to setup lirc to read my HP dv7 remote | 17:29 |

| piero | how to configure tor | 17:29 |
| qwd | AryanA: https://help.ubuntu.com/9.04/serverguide/C/openssh-server.html | 17:29 |
| iamfossy | hi all | 17:29 |
| Dr_Willis | gavagai: that was one of the reasons for the move.. to make room for 'windactors' and other special buttons.. which i dont see why they cant go alongside the 'menu' entries.. but we will see what actually happens | 17:29 |
| flansuse | Going against tried-and-true standards, not a smart decision. | 17:30 |
| jongbergs | AryanA: basically you need to configure your router on your PC end to forward port 22 (ssh) | 17:30 |
| geekphreak | flansuse: there are always gonna be little issues here and there with any system :) | 17:30 |
| Janhouse | how can I make iPhone work with Ubuntu 10.04? | 17:30 |

| CPPJ | Anybody can help? Problem: trying to connect laptop to HD-TV via HDMI and nothing comes up on screen... graphics card is an nvidia quadro | 17:30 |
| gavagai | Dr_Willis, yeah that was what i read on the flamefest and it seems like a complete non-answer to me | 17:30 |
| iamfossy | my ubuntu 10.04 is freezinf randomly | 17:30 |
| ViaNocturna85 | Janhouse: In my knowledge the IPhone only works with iTunes | 17:30 |
| IsmAvatar | personally I've grown fond of the buttons | 17:30 |
| Dr_Willis | gavagai: 10.10 may have some more innovations.. or not.. we will see. | 17:30 |
| qwd | Janhouse: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PortableDevices/iPhone | 17:30 |
| flansuse | geekphreak, Dr_Willis, I guess there is the possibility of a third-party tool that will substitute was services-admin did. | 17:30 |
| iamfossy | everything becomes slow | 17:30 |
| SerekPL | CPPJ: Check cable. Thats must be work | 17:30 |
| Dr_Willis | gavagai: ive not seen any of the windiactors that i would ever actually use. | 17:30 |
| geekphreak | flansuse: i do miss that and also run levels , would love to have that :) | 17:31 |
| iamfossy | as iam typing i can move mouse but nothingis clicable | 17:31 |
| CPPJ | SerekPL: cable's fine. It's been working fine with windows 7 until yday... | 17:31 |
| ownlife | Hello everybody - is it possible to have start up apps load on different desktops? | 17:31 |
| gavagai | Dr_Willis, to me it is like saying "we need space for window indicators so now we are putting the buttons on the bottom of the window'.. moving the buttons does not create space | 17:31 |
| Dr_Willis | flansuse: for upstart its a rather simple 'sudo mv /etc/init/gdm.conf /etc/init/gdm.DONTSTART' :) | 17:31 |
| JaydeeSN | Afternoon - any advice on getting ATI X600SE to be recognised in 9.10 so I can use catalyst and output through my S-video? Many Thanks.... | 17:31 |

| iamfossy | plz help | 17:31 |
| SerekPL | I pluged Bravia V5500 to Nvidia 8600. It's Work | 17:31 |
| gavagai | you have the same amount of space no matter where the buttons go... anyway, lol | 17:31 |
| Dr_Willis | gavagai: use flvm - it has the title bars on the side. :) Now thats innovative! | 17:31 |
| flansuse | Dr_Willis, yeah, I knew about that, but I wanted to know if this LTS (Lucid) would polish that by bringing back the GUI services tool. | 17:32 |
| SerekPL | unplug monitor and plug only HDMI | 17:32 |
| CPPJ | did it work straight away...? | 17:32 |

| flansuse | piero, what about tor? | 17:32 |
| SerekPL | uuu... I don't know ;) | 17:32 |
| Dr_Willis | bcurtiswx: check the lirc docs/homepage/forums perhaps? | 17:32 |
| CPPJ | SerekPL: :-D no worries | 17:33 |
| bcurtiswx | Dr_Willis: already have, no luck | 17:33 |
| geekphreak | Dr_Willis: install fresh copy of stable version, everything work now , even compiz | 17:33 |
| Dr_Willis | bcurtiswx: theres also the mythbuntu/mythtv forums - but its possible its not supported. | 17:33 |
| CPPJ | I'm going to try installing everything fro scratch guys. | 17:33 |
| Dr_Willis | geekphreak: yep. been meaning to do that to my other machines.. did a clean install on one so far. | 17:33 |
| jongbergs | iamfossy: can you elaborate your problem please? | 17:33 |
| SerekPL | CPPJ: Hmm.. I think i can't help you. Sorry.. | 17:34 |
| CPPJ | thanks for trying to help! :-) | 17:34 |

| flansuse | Name141, 4.5 GB? | 17:35 |
| piero | any other proxy software apart from tor | 17:35 |
| Name141 | flansuse: yes, maybe it's due to upgrading from hardy? | 17:35 |
| Dr_Willis | piero: thers numerous proxy servers out there.. tor is just a specilized one | 17:35 |
| jongbergs | iamfossy: were you a ble to login on ubuntu desktop right now? | 17:35 |
| flansuse | Name141, maybe, but even that isn't really THAT much, compared to other OSes. | 17:35 |
| Janhouse | qwd, it is not working with 10.04 automatically | 17:35 |
| Dr_Willis | !proxy | 17:36 |
| Janhouse | iPhone | 17:36 |
| flansuse | piero, what trouble are you having with tor? It's not too hard to configure, especially with Vidalia. | 17:36 |
| Name141 | flansuse: Perhaps I should go buy a CD-R | 17:36 |
| iamfossy | yes i've logged in but the typed letters appear after long long time gap | 17:36 |
| Name141 | flansuse: and install it bare. | 17:36 |

| iamfossy | yes if i minimize this window, i'll have to wait for long long till it minimizes | 17:38 |
| penguin42 | fiendishfish: You can't actually edit /proc/cmdline | 17:38 |
| toyman61 | fiendishfish: What about nano ? | 17:38 |
| Stereocaulon | Name41, if you want a leaner distro, look into Xubuntu 10.04, it's smaller and still has a Gnome-like environment. | 17:38 |
| Dr_Willis | fiendishfish: im not even sure thats an editable file... | 17:38 |
| wise_crypt | fiendishfish: how about nano | 17:38 |
| jongbergs | Mcl0vin: does it gives any error? | 17:38 |
| piero | terminal | 17:38 |
| fiendishfish | penguin42: What do I have to do then? Because my config is trying to use /dev/sdb10 but from the distro it appears as sda10 so obv the OS doesn't boot | 17:38 |
| geekphreak | hi wise_crypt :) | 17:38 |
| gorski | please, what should i do with this?! This computer is currently using the AMD 'fglrx' graphics driver. No version of this driver is available that works with your hardware in Ubuntu 10.04 LTS. | 17:39 |
| piero | terminal | 17:39 |
| iamfossy | jongbergs: even right click takes time to appear and very very non responsive | 17:39 |
| penguin42 | fiendishfish: Edit it from grub | 17:39 |
| Mcl0vin | jongbergs: not when i do it as sudo from terminal, but when i alt+F2 it did | 17:39 |
| erUSUL | gorski: use the free readeon driver ? | 17:39 |

| Stormcr0w | silverdrake11: OK, great | 17:39 |
| Dr_Willis | fiendishfish: thats a read only file here. its what options the kernel got when it booted up. | 17:39 |
| _pg_ | because tor is running already i guess | 17:39 |
| wise_crypt | geekphreak: hi | 17:39 |

| sebsebseb | Sadly Plymouth in Ubuntu 10.04 does not work properly with a lot of propritary graphics card drivers as I have found out. Things go rather weird with it if I have the propritary Nivida driver installed on the other computer, other people have been having such issues. There seems to maybe be a solution, but since I don't really understand it, it seems like something I don't want to play around with. http://idyllictux.wordpress.com/2010/04/26/ | 17:40 |
| sebsebseb | lucidubuntu-10-04-high-resolution-plymouth-virtual-terminal-for-atinvidia-cards-with-proprietaryrestricted-driver/ As a result I would rather just use Plymouth and use whatever I would have instead, or Xsplash, however when I try to remove the plymouth package, it wants to remove progarms that have nothing to do with it such as Banshee and F-Spot, but also important programs for the operating system. So for now no propritary Nivida driver | 17:40 |
| sebsebseb | installed, but that means no 3D OpenGL games for example. What to do? | 17:40 |

| Theravadan | qwd, thx | 17:41 |
| b33z | i have 32bit ubuntu on my laptop and i think it can do 64bit | 17:41 |
| b33z | can i upgrade my install without formatting? | 17:41 |
| erUSUL | b33z: no | 17:41 |
| fiendishfish | penguin42: Ah, didn't realise you could edit the lines it uses | 17:41 |
| b33z | damn. | 17:41 |
| bucknasty | I'm searching for this icon as a bigger png (width of 120px) or the .svg file. Anyone can tell me where to find it? http://media.ubuntuusers.de/wiki/attachments/18/42/Netzwerk_64.png | 17:41 |
| sebsebseb | heh heh at setting off the flood bot like that again, but more details the better :) | 17:41 |
| jongbergs | iamfossy: let's just see if the problem could anything be related to visual effect enabled | 17:41 |
| iamfossy | jongbergs:ok | 17:41 |
| Stormcr0w | b33z: what do you mean? | 17:41 |
| flansuse | _pg_, did you remove it too? | 17:41 |
| Stormcr0w | b33z: which version are you on now? | 17:42 |
| piero | yes | 17:42 |
| jongbergs | !panels | 17:42 |
| ubottu | To reset the gnome panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » | 17:42 |
| b33z | Stormcr0w: 32 bit 10.04 | 17:42 |
| _pg_ | flansuse: huh? | 17:42 |
| silverdrake11 | Stormcr0w, ok this is /default/grub http://pastebin.com/fXC9xcVT | 17:42 |

| elijah | Hi, I am using Linux Mint, I can SSH using terminal and my private/public key just fine but when I use Nautilus I don't know how to tell it to use my key, it just asks me for a password and I cannot get past it. Any ideas? | 17:42 |
| jongbergs | !panels | Mcl0vin | 17:42 |
| ubottu | Mcl0vin: please see above | 17:42 |
| Stormcr0w | b33z: if you want to go 64 bit, you have to reformat, I'm afraid | 17:42 |
| _pg_ | !mint | 17:42 |
| ubottu | There are some Ubuntu derivatives that we cannot provide support for due to repository and software changes. Please consult their websites for more information. Examples: gNewSense (support in #gnewsense), Linux Mint (see !mintsupport), LinuxMCE (support in #linuxmce), CrunchBang (support in #crunchbang), BackTrack (support in #backtrack-linux) | 17:42 |
| flansuse | _pg_, you were having problems with tor, right? | 17:42 |
| b33z | bummer | 17:42 |
| erUSUL | !mint > elijah | 17:42 |
| ubottu | elijah, please see my private message | 17:42 |
| piero | i want to start the installation again | 17:42 |
| Stormcr0w | silverdrake11: Ok, let me have a quick look | 17:42 |
| b33z | but for the best as i wanted to wipe out my windows partition anyway | 17:43 |
| jongbergs | Mcl0vin: it should be gnome-panel instead of gnome-session | 17:43 |
| _pg_ | flansuse: yes. i have to kill tor before i start vidalia everytime | 17:43 |
| sebsebseb | oh the link I linked to got cut off http://idyllictux.wordpress.com/2010/04/26/lucidubuntu-10-04-high-resolution-plymouth-virtual-terminal-for-atinvidia-cards-with-proprietaryrestricted-driver/ anyway maybe someone can help with my Plymouth issues? | 17:43 |
| geekphreak | b33z: good luck :d | 17:43 |
| flansuse | piero, first completely remove tor and vidalia: sudo apt-get purge tor vidalia | 17:43 |
| b33z | can i back up my gnome configuration/user directory to restore afterward? | 17:43 |
| maxo | I've got a line in my /etc/fstab mounting a samba share. but sometimes that device isn't switched on, and if so, it slows the boot process down by 30 seconds. Is there a way round this? | 17:43 |
| iamfossy | jongbergs : you were right | 17:43 |
| elijah | So, I should have just said I am using Ubuntu and having problems with Nautilus and SSH then? | 17:43 |
| Raydiation | hi im having a strange problem with nautilus: i cant copy a 1x1 px png which i made in gimp | 17:43 |
| piero | yea i have done that | 17:43 |
| Mcl0vin | jongbergs: now all what i see is a blank desktop, and my mouse cursor nothing else | 17:43 |
| silverdrake11 | Stormcr0w, and this is grub.cfg http://pastebin.com/QUs1anZP | 17:43 |
| flansuse | piero, okay, now make yourself root for these next parts: sudo su | 17:43 |
| piero | do i need to reboot my computer | 17:43 |
| iamfossy | jongbergs: its all because of compiz :) any fix ? or my nvidia driver ? | 17:43 |
| elijah | Does nautilus have a channel? | 17:43 |
| flansuse | piero, no. | 17:43 |
| piero | ok | 17:44 |
| erUSUL | !rootshell | flansuse piero | 17:44 |
| ubottu | flansuse piero: Using !sudo with single commands is preferable in most circumstances. However, if you really need a root shell, use « sudo -i » (other variants of this commands are redundant and/or potentially dangerous) | 17:44 |
| Raydiation | only thin i can do is send to, open with and compress | 17:44 |
| piero | yea done | 17:44 |
| flansuse | erUSUL, he has to for this next part. | 17:44 |
| b33z | thanks for the info yall | 17:44 |
| elijah | I can SSH using terminal and my private/public key just fine but when I use Nautilus I don't know how to tell it to use my key, it just asks me for a password and I cannot get past it. Any ideas? | 17:44 |
| erUSUL | flansuse: just pointing out the easier « sudo -i » :) | 17:44 |
| maxo | wow it's busy in here | 17:44 |
| intugo | Yes it is | 17:44 |
| Mcl0vin | jongbergs: i will "ctrl+alt+f3" 'shutdown -r now and see | 17:44 |
| jongbergs | iamfossy: i don't know for now, i have the same problem to with ATI card, I worked in 9.10..,maybe we'll try to find a fix later | 17:44 |
| Mcl0vin | *sudo | 17:44 |
| JoeSomebody | to put a ubuntu installer on a flash drive , is unetbootin still the recommended way? | 17:44 |
| Resno | maxo: a version release will dothat | 17:45 |
| enriq | is there a tool to read/write disk sectors for a ntfs partition? | 17:45 |
| jongbergs | Mcl0vin: ok hopefully it works out | 17:45 |
| _pg_ | JoeSomebody: yeah. or create usb startup from live cd | 17:45 |
| geekphreak | JoeSomebody: yep had good luck with it :d | 17:45 |
| flansuse | piero, now add the tor deb repository in your sources: echo "deb http://deb.torproject.org/torproject.org karmic main" >> /etc/apt/sources.list | 17:45 |
| qwd | elijah: nautilus uses seahorse to handle the key so make sure the key is in seahorse | 17:45 |
| Mcl0vin | jongbergs: 'sudo -i | 17:45 |
| rene_ | hola hamijos | 17:45 |
| JoeSomebody | ok thanks | 17:45 |
| sebsebseb | oh where, oh where are the experienced users that can maybe help with my Plymouth issue, well I know erUSUL is here, but I guess he can't help, or he would have replied already | 17:45 |

In rhythmbox, it shows up and i can browse the pod and listen to it, but i cannot copy any song/playlist/ANYTHING to the ipod. Can someone tell me how i copy playlists to my ipod??? | 17:45 |
| erUSUL | enriq: read/write disk sectors is what all hard disk do; can you be more specific ? | 17:45 |
| flansuse | piero, yes, it says karmic, and even for Lucid, use karmic. This is according to the tor developers. | 17:45 |
| flansuse | erUSUL, oh, okay, I see now. | 17:46 |
| piero | not working | 17:46 |

| enriq | erUSUL, I made the mistake of installing grub to windows partition while upgrading to 10.04, so I smashed the windows boot sector and I need to fix it | 17:46 |
| ViaNocturna85 | Does anyone here have an MSI laptop and Lucid? | 17:46 |
| me_in_panic | something went very wrong @ updating 9.10 to 10.4 (9.10 was installed with wubi). The grub update crashed and only my Windows 7 would boot. So I put the 10.04 ISO on an USB. After succesful installaption only 10.4 will boot (and my intact Windows 7 partition can not boot again). Can anybody help me here out? | 17:46 |
| gizmobay | I upgraded to 10.04. I use to be able to print from WinXP to the printer on Ubuntu using http://192.168.0.4:631/printer. I can print the test page from WinXP but when I try from MS Word nothing happens. | 17:46 |
| flansuse | ViaNocturna85, MSI netbook or laptop? | 17:46 |
| piero | -bash: http://deb.torproject.org/torproject.org: No such file or directory | 17:46 |
| sebsebseb | enriq: oh right so your still on 9.10? | 17:47 |
| ViaNocturna85 | flansuse: laptop | 17:47 |
| Stormcr0w | silverdrake11: Ok, I have just one recommendation, you can try it and see if it works | 17:47 |
| flansuse | ViaNocturna85, then no, sorry. | 17:47 |

| erUSUL | enriq: that's a question for #windows but anyway. you can use a windows installcd and boot into recovery mode and use « fixmbr » | 17:47 |
| enriq | sebsebseb, no, because I installed grub to /dev/sda, and also /dev/sda1 and /dev/sda2 | 17:47 |

| me_in_panic | fixmbr... thanks! | 17:48 |
| Stormcr0w | silverdrake11: on /etc/default/grub you can remove the "nomodeset" in the GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT line | 17:48 |
| flansuse | piero, now add the tor deb repository in your sources: echo "deb http://deb.torproject.org/torproject.org karmic main" >> /etc/apt/sources.list | 17:48 |

| Stormcr0w | silverdrake11: then save, sudo update-grub2 and restart | 17:48 |
| enriq | celestial, wise_crypt, erUSUL won't that ruin grub in /dev/sda? | 17:48 |
| IsmAvatar | I personally use VMWare | 17:48 |
| Dr_Willis | gizmobay: what do you mean print from tht URL? thats just the printer config URL. You still need to set up the printer in windows to actually use the printer. | 17:48 |
| IsmAvatar | is VirtualBox capable of shared folders? | 17:48 |
| qwd | IsmAvatar: yes | 17:48 |
| * wise_crypt so bussy in here going to #ubuntu-offtopic | 17:48 | |
| Dr_Willis | IsmAvatar: yes. in s4eferal different ways | 17:48 |

| ani | i am not able to install nvidia driver on 10.04 ... my card is 9400gt . | 17:49 |
| celestial | enriq, of course it will ruin grub, you will need to reinstall grub | 17:49 |
| skrite99 | hey all | 17:49 |
| Dr_Willis | maxo: set them to 'noauto' perhaps. | 17:49 |
| erUSUL | enriq: yes; but restoring grub with a ubuntu livecd is easy | 17:49 |
| piero | same problem | 17:49 |
| jongbergs | IsmAvatar: you need to install guest additions for shared folders to work | 17:49 |
| lsemple | man upgrading is painful, I hope this version 10.04 lasts 10 years.. Thats the goal isn't it ??? (lol) | 17:49 |
| crashev | why the transfer to/from usb flash is so slow in (k)ubuntu 10.04 ? | 17:49 |
| erUSUL | !grub2 | enriq | 17:49 |
| ubottu | enriq: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 | 17:49 |
| Stereocaulon | IsmAvatar, not always, some OS'es are supported, most are not for the shared folders feature. | 17:49 |
| ddavids | swiftarrow - im thinking if there are liek restricted extras like we had on karmic... | 17:49 |

| sebsebseb | erUSUL: I messaged enriq by mistake, when I was asking you what version of Ubuntu you were still on | 17:52 |
| iceroot | falconic: yes, and the problem is? | 17:52 |
| falconic | but I am geting the error "Paravirtualized guests cannot install off cdrom media" | 17:52 |
| Dr_Willis | gizmobay: you cold connect to that url with your cell phone and make that test page print. :) | 17:52 |

| kaie | geekphreak, not a local file, I'm looking for http://...ubuntu.../...lucid.../...grub-common.deb | 17:53 |
| erUSUL | sebsebseb: 9.10. i allways wait a week or two ... | 17:53 |
| iceroot | falconic: use qemu for the iso, not paravirtualisation | 17:53 |
| sebsebseb | erUSUL: well 9.10 really is better than 10.04 in certain ways | 17:53 |
| Dr_Willis | gizmobay: Unless you are saying the print test page from the windows printer config tool is working. | 17:53 |
| ani | erusul software manager has the old driver ..which can,t supported my card at all.. i need 190.x to work my card properly..i install 190.x and 195.x drivers before in kermic but in lucid its not working at all | 17:53 |
| gizmobay | Dr_Willis, no it has the XP logo on the test page. | 17:53 |
| falconic | iceroot: any idea what the issue is ? earlier when I used the "-l" parameter.. it gave me the error "Could not find an installable distribution at '/root/ubuntu-10.04-server-amd64.iso'" | 17:53 |
| sebsebseb | erUSUL: what was that about Virutalbox by the way, you been testing 10.04 like this yes? | 17:53 |
| PMantis | undecim: Thanks, the startup disk creator says I need to format my USB stick. When I click "Format" nothing happens... odd | 17:53 |
| Dr_Willis | gizmobay: that is weird then. | 17:53 |
| erUSUL | sebsebseb: no was a tab mistake sorry :) | 17:53 |
| falconic | iceroot: paravirtualization is faster? for using that what do I need to do ? | 17:53 |
| Dr_Willis | gizmobay: try abiword, or openoffice.. see if they do it. | 17:53 |
| gizmobay | I'm rebooting WinXP | 17:53 |
| jongbergs | juanca: i did using alternate cd, but i made sure my karmic is updated to latest packages before performing the upgrade just within karmic by mounting the iso file..i didn't burn the iso file | 17:54 |
| gizmobay | I'll try OO as well | 17:54 |
| undecim | PMantis: It should bring up a dialog with options on formatting... If you can't get to that, you can format it from the terminal. | 17:54 |
| sebsebseb | erUSUL: 8.10 is dead now as of the 30th April, so 9.04 is now the best version of Ubuntu that is still supported, sadly that only gets untill like 30th October. | 17:54 |
| iceroot | falconic: and how should paravirtualisation work with an iso? | 17:54 |
| flansuse | piero, did it work so far? | 17:54 |
| iceroot | falconic: so use qemu for the (virtual) cd-rom | 17:54 |

| amabo | Dr_Willis: thanks! | 17:54 |

| ceno | wise_crypt, much appreciated | 18:14 |
| gavagai | When my display freezes even CTRL ALT BACKSPACE does nothing, even though it is enabled. I have intel gma hd graphics if relevant. | 18:15 |
| wise_crypt | ceno: no problem | 18:15 |
| iamfossy | jongbergs : have you encountered freezes during a flash drive insert ? | 18:15 |
| Theravadan | ratcheer, i dont miss the 4 min shutdown either. I usually ended up doign a hard reset | 18:15 |
| penguin42 | gavagai: You can try alt-sysrq-k which is a bit more forceful | 18:15 |
| undecim | Okay, in the terminal, type "mount | grep media" and it should give you a line describing the partition, including the mount point (/media/something) | 18:15 |
| undecim | akaustav: Okay, in the terminal, type "mount | grep media" and it should give you a line describing the partition, including the mount point (/media/something) | 18:15 |
| penguin42 | gavagai: Which graphics card? | 18:15 |
| VladimirBG | where can I find xorg.cong in 10.04? I don't see it in /etc/X11 | 18:15 |

| domo | hey guys.. about to use ubuntu but i don't know which i should download.. 32 bit or 64 bit.. | 18:16 |
| penguin42 | gavagai: I think I've seen otehrs with i3/i5 problems but I've not noticed a particular bug report - are you running with compiz/desktop effects? | 18:16 |
| qwd | elijah: how was the key created? | 18:17 |
| penguin42 | domo: What's your machine and how much RAM? | 18:17 |
| Theravadan | can someone say my nick so i can test xchat notification? | 18:17 |
| iamfossy | silverdrake11: elaborate toyr problem | 18:17 |
| geekphreak | Theravadan: whats up? | 18:17 |
| domo | penguin42: it's a dell 1558 intel i5 with 4 gigs of ram | 18:17 |
| _jesse_ | Theravadan: hi | 18:17 |
| gavagai | penguin42, yes the effects are all on | 18:17 |
| ratcheer | silverdrake11: How about a link to a very good tutorial? | 18:17 |
| undecim | akaustav: okay, that really long part is the mount point then (you should be able to press Tab after the first 8 to finish it in the terminal) | 18:17 |
| penguin42 | domo: 64 should run well on it | 18:17 |
| Name141 | if I'm gonna just use ubuntu for eggdrops and such nature, do I need the desktop edition or server? Or does it really matter? | 18:17 |
| wise_crypt | silverdrake11: just ask your question | 18:17 |
| domo | penguin42: but flash sucks on 64 bit :( | 18:17 |
| penguin42 | gavagai: My guess is if you turn them off it'll be more stable; I'd bug report it anyway | 18:17 |
| undecim | akaustav: Now, run all the commands listed here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/427130/ | 18:17 |
| gavagai | penguin42, it always freezes when i'm doing something, never when it is just sitting there. ok i'll send a bug report, thanks | 18:17 |
| penguin42 | domo: Not if you download the Adobe flash 64bit beta! | 18:18 |
| Theravadan | _jesse_, thx | 18:18 |
| qwd | elijah: you could try opening seahorse and dragging and dropping the key to "my personal keys" | 18:18 |

| tman | it works now | 18:19 |

| silverdrake11 | wise_crypt, thats my grub default file http://pastebin.com/fXC9xcVT | 18:20 |

| ubottu | Ubuntu, like any other Linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW), or 'iptables' (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo).

| ViaNocturna85 | erUSUL: but what do you do if the cam worked flawlessly in 9.10 and since its not recognised but built in you dont know the make? | 18:23 |
| drbobb | jongbergs: the b43 driver used to work, but I can't get it to operate correctly in lucid | 18:24 |
| undecim | akaustav: Then run "aptitude reinstall linux-image-x.x.x.x-x-generic" where the x.x.x.x-x is the version that you saw from the last command | 18:24 |
| akaustav | undecim: No output. Back at the prompt. | 18:24 |
| StephenLinux | mickster04: when you launch the gnome-terminal through shell, you can specify where on screen with geometry, how could you choose the other window | 18:24 |
| undecim | akaustav: Ah, he uninstalled the packages then... | 18:24 |
| erUSUL | ViaNocturna85: you can find out with lsusb or lshw | 18:24 |

| undecim | akiniemi: "aptitude install linux-image-generic" and make sure that at least one package with a version gets installed with it (it will list the packages to install with a Y/n question) | 18:25 |

| ratcheer | ThePuppyNuts-87: I have seen a way to do it using a simple dpkg command, but I don't remember the exact command. | 18:26 |
| erUSUL | Nemurenai: this ---> dmesg | grep -i ata | less | 18:26 |
| erUSUL | silverdrake11: i can try | 18:26 |
| jongbergs | drbobb: what i did was install bcmwl-kernel-source, reboot, then enabline the proprietray drivers in System > Administration > Hardware Drivers | 18:27 |
| alonea | ok, I added a program to my favorites, but it doesn't keep the custom icon I set for it. How do I do that? (Like, the program is under Programming, I set the icon, but if I say put to favorites, the icon in Favorites is different) | 18:27 |
| drbobb | jongbergs: you must have a different chip? | 18:27 |

| === ryan\n is now known as walkman | ||
| erUSUL | silverdrake11: maybe adding vga=791 or video=1024x768@60 to that same line helps ... | 18:29 |
| undecim | akaustav: Alright. During this installation, it should update grub. If you don't see anything about that, run "update-grub" just to be sure. Once that's all done, just type "exit" until the terminal disappears and reboot. | 18:29 |
| StephenLinux | v0lksman: im using generic lucid, so i presume so | 18:29 |
| penguin42 | StephenLinux: Hmm you're right, it's being too clever | 18:29 |
| Mcl0vin | jongbergs: 'kill gnome-panel or session | 18:29 |

| v0lksman | StephenLinux, I think it will only be on if your hardware supports it...if it is you can setup windows rules for placement etc | 18:30 |
| drbobb | alonea: they don't work for this one, nor is it listed as supported on broadcom's page for the driver | 18:30 |

| silverdrake11 | erUSUL, what do you mean the vga option? | 18:32 |
| erUSUL | VladimirBG: sudo Xorg -configure it saves the xorg.conf in /root/ iirc | 18:32 |

| the_padawan2 | kjele: the startup of the recovery kernel has hanged. The last message is about the b43-pci-bridge | 19:11 |
| ActionParsnip | freku: address sizes: 32 bits physical, 32 bits virtual | 19:11 |
| kjele | the_padawan2: Does it still flash now? | 19:11 |
| xae8koo | One that autolikes stuff! | 19:11 |
| flansuse | ActionParsnip, then use the standard i386 kernel. | 19:11 |
| alteregoa | jove: i use 9.10 but with 2.6.33 kernel | 19:11 |
| mamad876 | jove: I did, and it's OK | 19:11 |
| alteregoa | 10.4 is to buggy for my opinion | 19:12 |
| ActionParsnip | freku: Intel(R) Core(TM) Duo CPU U2500 @ 1.20GHz | 19:12 |
| alteregoa | i'll wait till those bugs are fixed | 19:12 |
| geekphreak | kjele: could always do that, good idea | 19:12 |
| ActionParsnip | flansuse: cheers, just came to me today | 19:12 |
| the_padawan2 | kjele: i did previously install proprietary wifi drivers using the ubuntu GUI | 19:12 |
| jove | thanks mamad876 | 19:12 |

| Chripher | anyone seen zorg | 19:12 |
| Chripher | or zorgzorg2 on the ubuntu forum | 19:12 |
| Shapeshifter | this, ladies and gentlemen, is crap. | 19:12 |
| flansuse | ActionParsnip, is 4 GB or more, best to use the -pae kernel. | 19:13 |
| ActionParsnip | Shapeshifter: what is? | 19:13 |
| alteregoa | i played zork 20 years ago, but i never seen it | 19:13 |
| geekphreak | Shapeshifter: excuse me? | 19:13 |

| Loshki | alteregoa: that's reasonable, though they will be fixed faster if you file bugs for them... | 19:13 |
| Chripher | how to use seen coomadn | 19:13 |
| Shapeshifter | geekphreak: as I said... | 19:13 |
| AphisOne | mamad876, I've tried that before... didn't work... I just did `sudo aptitude clean` both caused fglrx to re-download when I went to do an install | 19:13 |
| ActionParsnip | flansuse: 3Gb is enough. I know about pae ;) | 19:13 |
| Shapeshifter | meh it seems like this thing still has problems. gnome doesn't like this machine. when I log in, it takes 1 minute to show the panel. when I want to add a widget to the panel, it takes a minute to load the window. ctrl-alt-del takes a minute to show the dialog. | 19:13 |
| mikejet | What s the name of the program that runs as the screen saver? i want to replace that. | 19:13 |

| MacB | Does the new LTS Ubuntu install how easily on a White Macbook 2009 Summer edition? :/ | 19:13 |
| kjele | the_padawan2: That suck very much. | 19:13 |
| Orolon1 | thanky vigo =) | 19:13 |
| merike | alteregoa: want to explain that suggestion? makes no sense otherwise | 19:13 |
| MacB | Since the old ones were hell to even get booted up from the CD | 19:13 |
| ActionParsnip | Shapeshifter: use kde or xfce or lxde or enlightenment | 19:13 |
| ActionParsnip | Shapeshifter: to name but a few | 19:13 |
| alteregoa | merike: sense is relative | 19:13 |
| Shapeshifter | geekphreak, ActionParsnip: those are not solutions to the problem. | 19:14 |
| ActionParsnip | Shapeshifter: gnome is not always the answer | 19:14 |
| geekphreak | Shapeshifter: did you update, or fresh install? | 19:14 |
| lappert | I need some help, i'm trying to install a game using playonlinux, but i only got the iso file, how do i mount iso images? Do i need some software or can i do it using the terminal | 19:14 |
| kjele | the_padawan2: I think that if you use the magic key with f it should kill that and let you through | 19:14 |
| Vigo | Orolon1: http://www.ubuntu.com/products/whatisubuntu/desktopedition | 19:14 |
| erUSUL | !iso | lappert | 19:14 |
| ubottu | lappert: To mount an ISO disc image, type « sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint> » - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning. | 19:14 |
| Shapeshifter | geekphreak: fresh install. I thought I'd try out ubuntu again. | 19:14 |
| the_padawan2 | kjele: haha yeah. it seems others have run into this problem but i'm not sure yet of the cause. Fortunately it does not seem to be a harware failure. The computer is quite new (<3 months) | 19:14 |
| ActionParsnip | lappert: sudo mkdir /media/iso; sudo mount -o loop /path/to/file.iso /media/iso | 19:14 |
| legend2440 | is this the lucid help channel now? or is it still #ubuntu+1? | 19:15 |
| Shapeshifter | I use archlinux on my laptop and desktop, custom setup, everything's brilliant but on this machine, family living room HTPC, I thought something like ubuntu might work. | 19:15 |

| nocturnus | if you boot from a usb stick called "kittymeow", can you installed to "kittymeow" from the live environment? | 19:15 |
| geekphreak | Shapeshifter: on fresh install it should be ok umm, did you uninstall anything or play with any settings? | 19:15 |
| erUSUL | legend2440: the former | 19:15 |
| Vigo | Orolon1: and here>: https://help.ubuntu.com/community | 19:15 |
| legend2440 | Pici: thanks | 19:15 |
| the_padawan2 | kjele: ubuntu 9.10 ran beautifully, so the support is there | 19:15 |
| Loshki | Shapeshifter: Sorry, just noticed this discussion. Have you run top to see if something is eating up cpu time? | 19:15 |
| Shapeshifter | geekphreak: I didn't do anything. It was like this from the very first startup | 19:15 |
| AphisOne | mamad876, I recieved "Preparing to replace fglrx 2:8.723.1-0ubuntu3 (using .../fglrx_2%3a8.723.1-0ubuntu3_i386.deb) ..." then a Warning and it doesn't get to the install I'm trying to do. | 19:15 |
| Orolon1 | alright ill check it out, thanks | 19:15 |
| geekphreak | huh wierd | 19:15 |
| kjele | the_padawan2: You do not have any chance the old kernel | 19:15 |
| kjele | the_padawan2: ? | 19:15 |
| Jaelae | woohoo ubuntu one is finally functioning properly :) | 19:15 |
| nocturnus | anyone? | 19:15 |
| peanutpan | WHY???: genisoimage: Error: '(null)' and './imagecopy/rr_moved' have the same Rock Ridge name 'rr_moved'. | 19:16 |
| geekphreak | Jaelae: :) | 19:16 |
| the_padawan2 | kjele: not sure. i've got whatever comes fresh off the install CD | 19:16 |
| m4dv0y | anyone have an iphone here | 19:16 |
| m4dv0y | ?? | 19:16 |
| Jaelae | shut it down, left came back - now it works | 19:16 |
| ActionParsnip | nocturnus: if you have spare space then maybe | 19:16 |
| merike | alteregoa: many things are, this isn't helpful at all when solving problems though | 19:16 |
| * Jaelae shrugs. | 19:16 | |
| stephen_ | how do you send messages to someone in particular? | 19:16 |
| flansuse | Shapeshifter, what do you think the cause is? | 19:16 |
| g0ddi3 | Hello | 19:16 |
| the_padawan2 | kjele: i didn't even do an apt-get update | 19:16 |
| geekphreak | m4dv0y: nope, you can send me one, i am open to offer | 19:16 |
| ActionParsnip | nocturnus: i'd use an addidtional device to install from | 19:16 |
| the_padawan2 | kjele: upgrade* | 19:16 |
| caldwell | ,AJ_ZO wats up | 19:16 |
| m4dv0y | can i send stuff to an iphone in ubuntu? | 19:16 |
| Shapeshifter | Loshki: yep, nothing is eating CPU. trying to "add to panel..." takes 1 minute, and hitting "close" on that dialog again takes a minute | 19:16 |
| Loshki | nocturnus: you want to install to the medium you're booting from? In general, that doesn't work. You might google the 'toram' boot option though... | 19:17 |
| stream_venom | hello all | 19:17 |
| sunshinepants | do any gnome fans know how to have the notification area applet anchor from the right as opposed from the left? | 19:17 |
| flansuse | Shapeshifter, what video card? | 19:17 |
| Vigo | Oroloni1: I spent about 5 days on the forums when 6.04 came out, I still use them often as well as the official and community Documentation. | 19:17 |
| nocturnus | Loshki: okay - how can i install ubuntu to a hardrive from another linuxA? | 19:17 |
| RemunJ66 | problem(s) upgrading to 10.04. No desktop, just black terminal screen :-\ | 19:17 |
| nocturnus | Loshki: which iso do i download? | 19:17 |
| Shapeshifter | flansuse: nvidia. but that doesn't matter as it was the same when nouveau was still in use. now I'm using nvidia. | 19:17 |
| g0ddi3 | When i try to add a packetsource with the command: "deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/jd-team/jdownloader/ubuntu lucid main" then there is the failure "Deb not found" what should i do? | 19:17 |
| nocturnus | Loshki: i have ubuntu-10.04-desktop-amd64.iso | 19:17 |
| hacker | w ubuntu | 19:17 |
| flansuse | Shapeshifter, what do you think the cause may be, though? | 19:17 |
| === hacker is now known as Guest42267 | ||
| stephen_ | is this #ubuntu? | 19:17 |
| Loshki | Shapeshifter: if you login to an xterm session is the cli slow too? | 19:17 |
| Shapeshifter | flansuse: and everything is snappy. It must be a gnome/glib g-anything problem | 19:17 |
| keverbur | remon: what is your graphics card? | 19:17 |
| ActionParsnip | m4dv0y: sure, bluetooth file sending is a defacto protocol as long as the iphone suppports bluetooth file sends | 19:17 |
| kjele | the_padawan2: Then you don't. There are a few option now. Either reinstall and upgrade everything before you install the wifi driver. Or chroot into the sytem with the live cd and upgrade the system there. The first option is the easiest. | 19:18 |
| Shapeshifter | Loshki: no, everything is quick apart from specific actions inside the gnome desktop | 19:18 |
| nocturnus | Guest42267: are you really a hacker? | 19:18 |
| flansuse | Shapeshifter, so the interface runs smooth, but it takes forever to load new dialogues and windows? | 19:18 |
| m4dv0y | mmm | 19:18 |
| Shapeshifter | flansuse: no idea | 19:18 |
| m4dv0y | bluetooth? | 19:18 |
| crdlb | sunshinepants: if you find the applet in gconf-editor /apps/panel/applets, there's a 'panel_right_stick' option | 19:18 |
| stephen_ | hi | 19:18 |
| robertzaccour | i found a bug involving my new netbook, i reported it this morning | 19:18 |
| robertzaccour | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/574406 | 19:18 |
| robertzaccour | thats the bug | 19:18 |
| Shapeshifter | flansuse: yes, some. e.g. the panel the first time, ctrl-alt-delete-dialog, add to panel... | 19:18 |
| m4dv0y | damn i don't have bluetooth built in my notebook | 19:18 |
| kjele | the_padawan2: With chroot you can also blacklist the b43-pci bridge module | 19:18 |
| Loshki | Shapeshifter: I guess I'm with whoever said try a different desktop then... | 19:18 |
| keverbur | remon? | 19:18 |
| lappert | actionparsnip: media/iso; what am i supposed to replace that with? :P | 19:18 |
| sunshinepants | crdlb: sweet thanks | 19:19 |
| ActionParsnip | g0ddi3: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:jd-team/jdownloader; sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install jdownloader | 19:19 |
| sanderqd | hey, something went wrong when repartitioning my hdd. i'm trying to reboot from a usb drive, but i get a grub rescue prompt with "error: no such partition". any way to boot from the usb drive anyway? | 19:19 |
| keverbur | remun: what is your graphjcs card? | 19:19 |
| nocturnus | Loshki: i don't see any of the common unix directories like usr and var in the iso | 19:19 |
| ActionParsnip | lappert: that is to be left, all you need to change is the path to the iso file | 19:19 |
| Shapeshifter | does someone know what app the ctrl-alt-del dialog is? | 19:19 |
| flansuse | Shapeshifter, on Arch, did you use the GNOME desktop? | 19:19 |
| Shapeshifter | so I can run it from a cli and see what is going on. | 19:19 |
| the_padawan2 | kjele: i would prefer the chroot method as i've spent some time yesterday setting up a virtual machine. Can you give some pointers or perhaps direct me to a link? | 19:19 |
| g0ddi3 | ActionParsnip: Thx | 19:19 |
| Shapeshifter | flansuse: no, on this machine I used KDE, on my own machines I use a custom setup (xinitrc and stuff) | 19:19 |
| Pici | Shapeshifter: gnome-system-montior i believe. | 19:19 |
| Shapeshifter | Pici: thanks | 19:19 |
| kjele | the_padawan2: I walk you through then | 19:20 |
| Loshki | nocturnus: some distros load entirely into ram, and never access the medium again after boot. With one of those, you could boot and then install back to the boot medium. It's probably not for beginners though... | 19:20 |
| lappert | actionparsnip: i left that and got this: mount point /media/is does not exist | 19:20 |
| legend2440 | since doing a clean install of Lucid which includes Firefox 3.6.3 i've noticed that when i go to Google home page and change the Search Settings to Do not provide query suggestions in the search box and hit the Save Preferences button that the change does not "stick". i have to change the setting every time i open a new instance of Firefox. i don't like it when i start typing and Search gives me suggestions. Any ideas? | 19:20 |
| kjele | the_padawan2: Boot into the live cd | 19:20 |
| Shapeshifter | Pici: nah that's not it. | 19:20 |
| ActionParsnip | Shapeshifter: the command: top does the same | 19:20 |
| the_padawan2 | kjele: that'd be great! | 19:20 |
| respire | what is the best way to test if the user ususally uses root account for admin or sudo? Simply check if they have sudo access or is there better (since you can set this as an option with the alternate install disc I wonder if it leaves a marker) | 19:20 |
| flansuse | Shapeshifter, one way to narrow down the culprit is to true a LiveCD of a GNOME desktop on the family PC. | 19:20 |
| Shapeshifter | ActionParsnip: I was talking about ctrl-alt-del, where this dialog pops up which gives you a "shutdown" option. | 19:20 |
| flansuse | Shapeshifter, something like Foresight perhaps, since it showcases the latest GNOME. | 19:20 |
| soreau | how do I get rid of evolution so volume icon is the only thing in the indicator bar? | 19:20 |
| ActionParsnip | lappert: sudo mkdir /media/iso; sudo mount -o loop /path/to/file.iso /media/iso | 19:20 |
| flansuse | *is to try | 19:20 |

| ubottu | Package cdda2wav does not exist in lucid | 19:21 |
| Loshki | respire: why does it matter which one they use? Most ubuntu distros don't even have a usable root password unless/until you set one up... | 19:21 |
| sanderqd | is there anyway to make the liveUSB grub not check the hdd? | 19:21 |
| flansuse | Shapeshifter, gnome-session-save --shutdown-dialog | 19:21 |
| geekphreak | soreau: right click >> remove from panel? | 19:21 |

| soreau | geekphreak: That will remove the entire indicator applet including the volume icon. All's I want is the volume icon, not evolution but they are both in the same tray | 19:23 |
| futura | okokok, no can someone walk me through troubleshooting GTKPOD? because i cant do it, and i dont understand much of this god-forsaken terminology. | 19:23 |

Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken. | 19:23 |

| futura | i REALLLY dont need any more links, i need actual help. | 19:25 |

| Shapeshifter | flansuse: it did not. and this is also taking ages to load | 19:25 |
| lappert | actionparsnip: yeah, just got the understanding that ubuntu is kind of "noob" friendly :P | 19:25 |
| trism | soreau: although, you could completely remove the indicator applet and add gnome-volume-control-applet to System/Preference/Startup Applications and it will show up in the notification area like in karmic | 19:25 |
| michaelxq | xangua, __could not find any package__ | 19:25 |
| ActionParsnip | lappert: many others are too, mandriva, fedora, suse are all nice and friendly | 19:25 |
| tessarakt | how do I switch to the nvidia driver? | 19:25 |
| kjele | the_padawan2: You in luck then. I made a script that should automate stuff for you | 19:25 |

| flansuse | Shapeshifter, well, one option is to file a bug report, and also to try with another Live CD that uses GNOME. | 19:27 |
| ActionParsnip | lappert: i use gentoo and ubuntu. try as many as you wish, they are all free. its fun | 19:27 |

| sebsebseb | awesome ActionParsnip is here | 19:27 |
| plum | hey guys, how do i auto-mount partitions in 10.04? | 19:27 |
| C-S-B | Urgh, I can get my hotkey to eject if I create a new hotkey command that runs the 'eject' command but then it doesnt do the nice notification. | 19:27 |
| ActionParsnip | TheCheeze: works perfect here. HalfLife2 runs great | 19:27 |
| temon | actionparsnip: are you gamers? | 19:27 |
| Ramon | As I put my conky more to the left and down? | 19:27 |

| CogitoErgoSam | if anyone is getting a black screen after grub and before GDM with a laptop w/ integrated intel graphics....modify grub's parameters to pass i915.modeset=1 | 19:27 |
| ActionParsnip | temon: i play penumbra, frets on fire and half life 2 | 19:27 |
| Shapeshifter | flansuse: I'm pretty sure it's a gnome thing as I had the same problem like half a year ago when I ran gnome on Arch on this machine. Something essential is broken | 19:27 |
| lappert | actionparsnip: yeah true, i'l try and get most of the stuff to work properly in ubuntu before i try something else i think though | 19:27 |
| C-S-B | ActionParsnip, you might know. :) | 19:27 |
| TheCheeze | ActionParsnip, both ffxi and ventrilo are not giving me any audio :( | 19:28 |
| tessarakt | ok, thanks for now, I'll try my luck | 19:28 |
| ActionParsnip | TheCheeze: are you using an audiy sound card? | 19:28 |
| ActionParsnip | *audiy | 19:28 |
| lappert | i got ventrilo with sound working in wine | 19:28 |
| ActionParsnip | audigy | 19:28 |
| CogitoErgoSam | anyone having problems with Empathy connecting to Google talk after installing 10.04 even with the server set manually to talk.google.com? | 19:28 |

| TheCheeze | ActionParsnip, on-board nvidia-based | 19:28 |
| the_padawan2 | kjele: i'm going to have to disconnect from IRC to steal this computer's ethernet cable for the apt-get upgrade | 19:28 |
| lappert | i have to have wine windows open for ptt to work though :S | 19:28 |
| sebsebseb | ActionParsnip: I am thinking much more about switching over computer to Mandriva as well :) after the Plymouth issues I have been experiencing in Ubuntu 10.04, since it doesn't like the propritary Nivida driver. However I remember you removed Plymouth since didn't like it, thing is when I try to do this, it wants to remove a load of other stuff with it, including stuff that has nothing to do with it such as F-Spot and Banshee. | 19:28 |
| dpac | Does updating a kernel resets the kernel parameters set in grub.conf? | 19:28 |
| sebsebseb | ActionParsnip: other not over above | 19:28 |
| kjele | the_padawan2: ok | 19:28 |
| silverdrake11 | Does anyone know how I can change the boot splash screen resolution to 1366x768? It looks stretched, zoomed in, and ugly? | 19:29 |
| the_padawan2 | kjele: ok, talk to you soon, thank a ton! | 19:29 |
| CogitoErgoSam | dpac: it shouldn't | 19:29 |
| VladimirBG | apt-get started acting up on me after I installed and un-installed an app. I get this message http://pastebin.com/ANUucUjW | 19:29 |
| mamad876 | dpac, I think not! | 19:29 |
| silverdrake11 | Does anyone know how I can change the boot splash screen resolution to 1366x768? It looks stretched, zoomed in, and ugly. | 19:29 |
| flansuse | Shapeshifter, well, maybe it's changed since then? Maybe another Live CD distro using GNOME will not have this problem? You can always safely test out that theory. | 19:29 |
| CogitoErgoSam | dpac: grub.conf is generated automatically based on /etc/default/grub | 19:29 |
| ActionParsnip | sebsebseb: maybe it was an alpha release but it seemed to be removable. I wouldnt switch distro for the sake of a pathetic bootsplash | 19:29 |
| Iowahc | hy there, i installed ubuntu server edition and on boot I get a no signal on my monitor. what gives? | 19:29 |
| flansuse | Shapeshifter, there's the openSUSE 11.2 GNOME and Fedora 12 GNOME Live CDs that you can try. | 19:29 |
| sebsebseb | ActionParsnip: that's not the only reason I would switch | 19:29 |
| lappert | actionparsnip: my biggest problem atm is css completly freezing my system when i run it with wine | 19:29 |
| The_ManU_212 | hi | 19:30 |
| Chripher | granfot are you here | 19:30 |
| CogitoErgoSam | Iowahc: At what point? Pre bios? Post bios? Pre grub? Post grub? | 19:30 |
| ActionParsnip | lappert: have you consulted the appdb for additional tweaks for the game? | 19:30 |
| The_ManU_212 | i use alsa as audio driver, play music on my host system and udner virtualbox my guest system cant play sound on the same time as sound is running on the host, i set allready alsa and blacklisted loaded oss modules (then reboot) | 19:30 |
| sebsebseb | ActionParsnip: however if I don't have the propritary Nivida graphics card driver installed, that means no OpenGL and so no 3D games and such, and that's not a good thing at all for this other computer | 19:30 |
| flansuse | Shapeshifter, I believe both are GNOME 2.28, not 2.30 like Lucid ships with. | 19:30 |
| dpac | CogitoErgoSam, update-grub is triggered everytime kernel is updated, so that might reset the parameters, can't it not? | 19:30 |
| dto | hi. when i leave my desktop for a while and the monitors go into power save, the 2nd monitor is lost when the desktop comes back. the windows are moved to the main monitor | 19:30 |
| neverblue | no more ## in front of channel names for freenode ? | 19:30 |
| dto | and i have to go back into prefs | 19:30 |
| Chripher | Granis`: you here | 19:30 |
| Iowahc | CogitoErgoSam: Post bios, and pretty sure post grub | 19:30 |
| sebsebseb | ActionParsnip: I have read the web, other people have been having issues as well | 19:30 |
| dto | how can i fix 2nd monitor being lost when screen blanks? | 19:30 |
| ActionParsnip | sebsebseb: just let plymouth sit, there are tweaks for grub to make the bootsplash use a different driver | 19:30 |
| kjele | the_padawan2: You need to run as root but I hope you know that.. | 19:31 |
| CogitoErgoSam | dpac: update grub doesn't change the boot parameters though, it just adds the kernel to the list | 19:31 |
| ActionParsnip | sebsebseb: yeah i get the same but i dont care that it sits black :) | 19:31 |
| lappert | actionparsnip: nope, asked at winehq though, he suggested it might be the videocard driver, running ati atm so that might be the case | 19:31 |
| michaelxq | xangua, __could not find any package__ | 19:31 |
| CogitoErgoSam | dpac: the boot params come from /etc/default/grub | 19:31 |
| ActionParsnip | sebsebseb: i use the sunrise bootsplash on my intel lappy | 19:31 |
| ActionParsnip | lappert: it might be a good idea dude | 19:31 |

| purvesh | geekphreak, hi Bro how r u :) | 19:32 |
| Shapeshifter | flansuse: nah. I'm googling the error. trying something else is not an option, I'd just reinstall arch and kde and let the machine rot instead | 19:32 |
| Shapeshifter | if I can't get this working | 19:32 |
| Vigo | sebsebseb: srry: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto that is a good one. | 19:32 |
| dpac | CogitoErgoSam, Those are grub parameters in /etc/default/grub .. kernel parameters like 'nomodeset' etc are in grub.conf, isn't it? | 19:32 |

| nocturnus | is it possible? | 19:33 |
| Iowahc | CogitoErgoSam: My guess is, that the resolution of the "verbose" boot screen is to low / high. | 19:33 |
| Andrew12 | cjs: i would assume #ubuntu-dev | 19:33 |
| CogitoErgoSam | dpac: grub.conf is generated automatically by update-grub, and uses the parameter defaults that are set in /etc/default/grub | 19:33 |
| flansuse | Shapeshifter, it wasn't to try something else, but to reveal if it's a GNOME or Ubuntu problem. | 19:33 |
| purvesh | geekphreak, yup they work on Windows but not moving on Linux | 19:33 |
| xangua | gladiator: do you know 'ubuntu tweak' they have an option to add repositories incluiding flash for 64 bits | 19:33 |
| kjele | cjs: #ubuntu+1 but you need invite now | 19:33 |
| cjs | Ah, actually #ubuntu-devel. | 19:33 |
| Shapeshifter | flansuse: I still think it's a gnome problem | 19:33 |

| ActionParsnip | respire: it doesn't | 19:39 |
| Pici | purvesh: The application that gnome uses by default to rpeview images may not support animated gifs. You could try opening them in a web browser or another image preview tool, like gthumb or gwenview. | 19:39 |
| sebsebseb | ActionParsnip: they could have improved xsplash, given it a proper theme etc, but nope, decided to copy Fedora since that's what people wanted with Plymouth, and now issues | 19:39 |
| Mallen_ | neverblue: Lol, beacuse it isnt really mounted (I cant see it under Computer just under disk utility) | 19:39 |
| respire | ActionParsnip, It asks for my root password instead of my user password so it somehow does | 19:39 |

| respire | otherwise I will just use some j random hacker method and it will be lame | 19:40 |

| Shapeshifter | oops sorry | 19:43 |
| Ken8521 | robertzaccour, what it does in windows is irrelevant... windows has drivers for that device. | 19:43 |

| sebsebseb | ActionParsnip: also this is the kind of thing, I don't want to have to mess around with, because of a stupid boot up | 19:43 |

| purvesh | Pici, Now its working Fine Thanx.:) | 19:44 |

| C-S-B | eject doesnt work :( | 19:44 |

| ActionParsnip | sebsebseb: then don't. It doesn't affect the system once its booted | 19:44 |
| robertzaccour | Ken8521, so its probably a driver issue? | 19:44 |
| aigoo | geekphreak, It seem that flash player is not installed by default. | 19:44 |
| the_padawan2 | kjele: ok, i think i'll take the reinstall route. is it reasonable to expect that doing an apt-get upgrade before installing the proprietary driver will fix this? | 19:44 |

| ActionParsnip | C-S-B: in fluxbox, great. Otherwise not at all | 19:45 |
| Ken8521 | robertzaccour, open a terminal and type "lspci" w/o quotes, and see how it identifies your audio device | 19:45 |
| NetLarIrvine | I have already blacklisted the conflicting drivers | 19:45 |
| kjele | silverdrake11: then do "sudo updatedb" and use "locate filename" to see if it is still on the system. You might have to relog to take effect. Might be corrupted as you said | 19:45 |
| NetLarIrvine | and only the rt2740sta driver is loading now | 19:46 |

| maco | Ken8521: pleasant surprise then | 19:55 |
| anom01y | any how do I restart the X server, the boot screen doesnt give me an option, and ctrl alt backspace doesnt work..... | 19:55 |
| respire | ActionParsnip, http://www.pastie.org/943942 | 19:55 |
| respire | not always true | 19:55 |
| MaT-dg | temon, ActionParsnip: are you sure? talking about 10.1 beta here on a 64bit system not 10.0 | 19:55 |
| * respire does not like sudo and does not use it so has no sudo access | 19:55 | |
| kjele | silverdrake11: think you can show me a screen shot of it? | 19:55 |
| robertzaccour | Ken8521, so between dapper and feisty? | 19:55 |
| DanC | Loshki, done: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/574686 ; does that look right? | 19:55 |
| maco | robertzaccour: please run "apport-collect -p alsa-base 574406" to attach alsa debugging info to that bug report | 19:55 |
| thecameleon_paul | well... would so mind to help me? | 19:55 |
| kjele | silverdrake11: The thing is that the files are deleted you do not have them. | 19:55 |
| sebsebseb | ActionParsnip: It's kind of odd really since I am not fully happy with Ubuntu since 9.04 that a part of me wants Mandriva on the other computer as well, but then it's like no. Or I guess not quite since how it will be set up and the users. | 19:55 |
| silverdrake11 | kjele, sure hold on a sec | 19:55 |
| Ken8521 | robertzaccour, no, from (i believe) edgy to lucid.. id on't think i had dapper on this laptop | 19:55 |
| RedNifre | Hi | 19:56 |
| sebsebseb | ActionParsnip: uh that was meant to be, that a part of me still wants to keep Ubuntu on there | 19:56 |
| thecameleon_paul | hi | 19:56 |
| RedNifre | Where to set the language of spell checking? | 19:56 |
| marcus | kjele: running from USB I can access the drives and all is oke... it's just that the mbr is damaged... and I can not repear it because grub2 will not let me access the preloaded recovery/installation partition | 19:56 |
| Loshki | DanC: yes, looks good. Thanks... | 19:56 |
| ActionParsnip | MaT-dg: sure, you can install flashplugin-nonfree then replace the .so file with the 10.1 one, if you are using 64bit you will get better flash using the 64bit one | 19:56 |
| respire | ok thats it | 19:56 |
| maco | MaT-dg: theres no such thing as 10.1 | 19:56 |
| thecameleon_paul | syst>admin>languages | 19:56 |
| Vigo | sebsebseb: And here from Ubuntu Geek:> | 19:56 |
| trainer | Hi I can't get Lucid to install from the CD. I boot to it, choose English, and then when I press enter to install ubuntu, the disc spins for a few seconds and nothing happens | 19:56 |
| sebsebseb | Vigo: what's that? | 19:56 |
| maco | MaT-dg: and theres currently no beta version of ubuntu | 19:57 |
| Vigo | sebsebseb: whoops: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FoundationsTeam/LucidBootExperience | 19:57 |
| ActionParsnip | trainer: did you md5 test the iso you burned? | 19:57 |
| sh10151 | Does anyone here use a wubi install of Ubuntu? | 19:57 |
| amabo | is it possible to get rid of this black space that exists between my monitors so that things don't exist off the screen? http://imgur.com/PgTJ4.png | 19:57 |
| trainer | ActionParsnip no how do I do that? | 19:57 |
| kjele | marcus: When you installed grub you put its file on a usb that is why... | 19:57 |
| ActionParsnip | sebsebseb: try it, if you like it then stick with mandriva | 19:57 |
| RedNifre | thecameleon_paul: That's just the interface language. I'm talking about the spell checker (The red underlines) | 19:57 |
| ActionParsnip | !md5 | trainer | 19:57 |

| MaT-dg | maco: flashplayer 10.1 beta ;) | 19:57 |
| sebsebseb | sh10151: soem people yeah, but much better to use real partitions espesailly in the long run. well for testing when Wubi works it's ok for short term Ubuntu useage | 19:57 |
| kjele | marcus: So plug in the usb and boot win7 | 19:57 |
| maco | MaT-dg: ahhh ok :) | 19:57 |
| FANUM | anyone in here familiar with the intel 855 bugs regarging kms in lucid | 19:58 |
| thecameleon_paul | Sorry guys, can you help me to figure out how to make pitivi work with a wmv? | 19:58 |
| maco | robertzaccour: also, specify in the report whether you mean mic jack or a screen mic (if you have both) | 19:58 |
| ActionParsnip | MaT-dg: there is even a repo with 6bit flash on which made me laugh | 19:58 |
| respire | can someone on a normal ubuntu with sudo enabled please show me the contents of their file /etc/alternatives/libgksu-gconf-default | 19:58 |
| lucas-arg | i have iw3945 and my connection is really slow, is anyone else having the same problem? | 19:58 |
| silverdrake11 | kjele, ok it's all these files http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1049596/Screenshot-Trash%20-%20File%20Browser.png | 19:58 |
| RedNifre | It would be best if Gnome had a little tray button to switch the spell check (right next to the clock or something) | 19:58 |
| robertzaccour | maco, i did that thanks | 19:58 |
| FANUM | thecameleon_paul can you play the wmv file in movie player? | 19:58 |
| CogitoErgoSam | FANUM: Yes, I can help you fix it | 19:58 |
| gh0zt | !controls | 19:58 |
| ubottu | 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 | 19:58 |
| silverdrake11 | kjele, this is what happens when I try to delete them individually http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1049596/screenshot2.png | 19:58 |
| sh10151 | sebsebseb: just a little squeamish about partitioning computer at work, I guess | 19:58 |
| thecameleon_paul | yes I can play the movie in totem | 19:59 |
| MaT-dg | ActionParsnip: well, I downloaded the 10.1 .so and placed in in ~./mozilla/plugins like I did for the 64bit .so, but it's not recognized in firefoc | 19:59 |
| sebsebseb | sh10151: well back up data | 19:59 |
| sh10151 | sebsebseb: not that they couldn't just reimage it | 19:59 |
| FANUM | CogitoErgoSam excellent, i have it booting to low res now | 19:59 |
| CogitoErgoSam | FANUM: to get my laptop working with lucid and its built-in i855 gfx, here's what I did | 19:59 |
| sebsebseb | sh10151: then just re size, Windows, Vista though and maybe Windows 7 not sure about 7. is one you should let re size itself | 19:59 |
| Vigo | RedNinfire: Add the Dictionary to a panel? | 19:59 |
| ActionParsnip | MaT-dg: http://digg.com/linux_unix/OMG_UBUNTU_64bit_Flash_PPA_for_ubuntu | 19:59 |
| marcus | kjele: sorry for the misunderstanding... I installed it FROM usb TO disk. First I had version 9.10 installed by wubi. The update crashed completly, So I put the ISO file on a usb to compleet te installation. I worked but from that point my windows will not boot any more from grub | 19:59 |
| sh10151 | this is XP 64bit | 19:59 |
| sebsebseb | !dualboot | sh10151 | 19:59 |
| CogitoErgoSam | Fanum: edit the /etc/default/grub file | 19:59 |

| ActionParsnip | MaT-dg: if your install is 64bit then that wont work, the 10.1 is only 32bit right now | 19:59 |
| sebsebseb | sh10151: desktop or server? | 20:00 |
| sh10151 | desktop | 20:00 |
| sebsebseb | sh10151: well for both when it comes to businesses, there are better distros | 20:00 |
| kjele | marcus: ok. Have you tried to update grub from the desktop installation of yours? | 20:00 |
| FANUM | thecameleon_paul so is piviti not recognizing the file? | 20:00 |
| alteregoa | darmok and jalad at tanagra | 20:00 |
| kjele | marcus: Not the usb | 20:00 |
| CogitoErgoSam | FANUM: Change the line GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash" to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash i915.modeset=1" | 20:00 |
| robertzaccour | maco, ok i also reported that its the built in mic not plug in one but i'll get one tonight and try it out and see | 20:00 |
| CogitoErgoSam | FANUM: Then run update-grub | 20:00 |
| maco | robertzaccour: ok | 20:00 |
| nlfidelitas | anyone have any ideas on why one of my SATA II hard drives is coming up as a PATA drive in Ubuntu? | 20:00 |
| thecameleon_paul | FANUM : URI :Docu_Arte.wmv | 20:00 |
| sebsebseb | sh10151: I think for example a lot of businesss'es will go for Debian Stable, since it's stable, for example. Also Ubuntu is based on Debian. | 20:00 |

| kjele | silverdrake11: Try make a dummy file and delete that one see if you can find it in trash | 20:01 |
| marcus | kjele: update the grub... yes by selecting recovering mode at startup and then update grub | 20:01 |
| trainer | ActionParsnip, the md5 does match | 20:01 |
| respire | my linux got so complicated since slackware 94 :( | 20:01 |
| thecameleon_paul | okay | 20:01 |
| sh10151 | sebsebseb: well, if my employer would have official desktop support for linux, then I wouldn't be picky | 20:01 |
| respire | i have to learn 10 new commands just to do anything! | 20:01 |
| sh10151 | sebsebseb: but ease of installation + wubi is why I've got ubuntu | 20:01 |
| sebsebseb | sh10151: ah right yeah Canonical does provide actsaul offical Ubuntu support | 20:01 |
| silverdrake11 | kjele, yea that works fine, and I can delete it. | 20:02 |
| * respire now realises this file is a gconf option and now has to learn how to read these | 20:02 | |
| sebsebseb | sh10151: Wubi I would highly recommend against that in a business environment | 20:02 |

| kjele | marcus: And then one important question. How did you shutdown your windows 7 before you install ubuntu? | 20:02 |
| sh10151 | but now I am wondering if it's crazy to use VirtualBox to boot the original XP 64-bit OS | 20:02 |
| ActionParsnip | trainer: good, try to check the iso BEFORE burning. Otherwise you have no way of knowing if the data you are using is complete or consistant | 20:02 |
| sebsebseb | sh10151: Wubi can mess up on people, and oh yes it will quite a lot of the time. Also then you can't just say stick in the Live CD and access the partition and get hold of the data. | 20:02 |
| Mallen_ | Could someone help me with a HD mount problem I keep getting this error http://pastebin.com/U6qRW7WF | 20:02 |
| CogitoErgoSam | FANUM: If you need a hand changing the grub settings for the i855, send me a private message and I can help you with the details | 20:02 |
| ActionParsnip | trainer: did you burn the CD as slowly as possible | 20:02 |
| sh10151 | sebsebseb: all of the actual data is stored on network shares | 20:02 |
| kjele | silverdrake11: Can you delete it fram trash too? | 20:02 |
| === owner is now known as barberan | ||
| thecameleon_paul | okay I'll leave you and go to french ! | 20:03 |
| sh10151 | sebsebseb: i'd only be out my software installation if it crashed | 20:03 |
| sebsebseb | sh10151: maybe then, but a partitioned install will probably work quite a bit faster for example | 20:03 |
| progre55_ | hi people! any flashget-like native programs under ubuntu? | 20:03 |
| FANUM | CogitoErgoSam excellent, i got that changed, will reboot and test. Does that disable KMS? | 20:03 |
| trainer | ActionParsnip no but it took a while | 20:03 |
| marcus | kjele: yes i did; windows was not running when i finished the ubuntu installation | 20:03 |
| silverdrake11 | kjele, yea when I empty trash, it just gets rid of the dummy file but not all the other files | 20:03 |
| sebsebseb | sh10151: also I am not sure if Canonical support Wubi installs, I have a feeling though that they may not do so | 20:03 |
| dpac | Mallen_, Are you trying to mount root filesystem? | 20:03 |
| FANUM | CogitoErgoSam excellent, based on the fact that is a 1, im guessing it unblacklists the driver correct? | 20:03 |
| DanC | ugh... my new bug report is one of 618 on ubiquity, and there are 1200 open bugs. | 20:03 |
| silverdrake11 | kjele, this is such a weird problem.... | 20:03 |
| Vigo | !flash | progre55_ | 20:04 |
| ubottu | progre55_: To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - See also !Restricted and !Gnash | 20:04 |
| dpac | Mallen_, it seems so from the error | 20:04 |
| Narya | where can I set the default programs for different file types? | 20:04 |
| CogitoErgoSam | FANUM: yup | 20:04 |
| kjele | marcus: But how did you shutdown your windows? | 20:04 |
| FANUM | sweet | 20:04 |
| FANUM | brb | 20:04 |
| Mallen_ | dpac: yea the error says its mounted to / | 20:04 |
| sebsebseb | sh10151: also if your after paid support, I think they can even be paid to set things up properly. | 20:04 |
| Mallen_ | dpac: but I can no access the HD - its for storage and would think it would mount to /media | 20:04 |
| haakond | In Kubuntu 10.04: I want to add a (Open)VPN connection, but both in Network Settings and KNetworkManager the "Add" button is greyed out. What do I have to do? Previously I've used KVpnc, but the best would be if KNetworkManager could handle it. Thanks. | 20:04 |
| progre55_ | Vigo: not flash, but flashget (was it?).. to download stuff in chunks and faster ) | 20:04 |

| josvuk | Hello, I'm looking for the keys to press to achieve a backslash character on the terminal. (Ubuntu 10.0 powerbook g4 keyboard) :-) | 20:05 |
| sebsebseb | sh10151: Wubi is really for the homeuser, not a business | 20:05 |
| dpac | Mallen_, is it an external hard drive? | 20:05 |
| Mallen_ | dpac: Nope internal SATA | 20:05 |
| mkquist | help with boot stopping at "ata4: DUMMY"? new installation of course | 20:05 |
| Vigo | progre55_: whoops, like Jigido? | 20:05 |
| ActionParsnip | josvuk: copy / paste one from the terminal in the mean time ;) | 20:05 |
| DanC | Loshki, sure, but this suggests my bug won't get attention right away | 20:05 |
| fiver22 | Hi. Losing items from the tray. They continue to run but have disappeared from the tray -happens with Transmission and Quassel. 10.04 clean install. | 20:05 |
| kjele | silverdrake11: Well the only way now is to restore everything. rm -rf ~/.gnome2* ~/.gconf* ~/.config ~/.local | 20:05 |
| progre55 | Vigo: hmm.. let me try that one =) | 20:05 |
| CogitoErgoSam | josuvk: You mean to have it interpreted as text instead of a backslash? | 20:05 |
| sh10151 | sebsebseb: this is actually me alone trying to fly under the radar with a clandestine Linux install until the organization updates its workstation OS policies | 20:06 |
| kjele | silverdrake11: You will lose all configuration setting | 20:06 |
| sh10151 | sebsebseb: not a long-term decision :) | 20:06 |
| atomicsunset | whats a good avi to mp4 converter? i tried devede but i just converted and avi to an avi :P | 20:06 |
| nocturnus | is it possible to run the ubuntu installer from another ubuntu-based live distro (such as backtrack) ? | 20:06 |
| ChrisC_ | Hi, does anyone know about the mic issue with skype an pulse audio? Is there a way over it in 10.04 | 20:06 |
| sebsebseb | sh10151: oh I see | 20:06 |
| ChrisC_ | ? | 20:06 |
| CogitoErgoSam | josuvk: You'd use \\ which is the escape character and would evaluate as a text \ | 20:06 |
| sebsebseb | sh10151: well you would still need admin rights in the Windows install, to install Wubi | 20:06 |
| Loshki | atomicsunset: try handbrake... | 20:06 |
| dpac | Mallen_, try umount /dev/sdc1 | 20:06 |
| kjele | marcus: If you did an unclean shutdown then you won't be able to boot it. | 20:06 |
| sebsebseb | sh10151: also there is a chance that it will mess up either when you install, or when you try and remove, then Windows won't just boot up | 20:06 |
| sh10151 | sebsebseb: i already have it installed, works great | 20:06 |
| silverdrake11 | kjele, thats terrible, lose all my config settings just to delete a few corrupted files? | 20:07 |
| marcus | kjele: normal shut down. Seqence: window> wubi> reinstall 9.10 after crash > reboot > booting ubuntu for installation > reboot > starting ubuntu again > updating 9.10 to 10.4 > major crash when done: grub does nothing anymore. Next: USB startup: reinstall 10.4. > Ubuntu works fine > windows partition is recognited but is not booteble any more | 20:07 |
| josvuk | CogitoErgoSam: Yes I use kermit which have the escape character ctrl-\ to come back :-) | 20:07 |
| sh10151 | sebsebseb: just think the question of using VirtualBox to get back into it might be foolish | 20:07 |
| amabo | is there a command for detecting displays? | 20:07 |
| NetLarIrvine | I need to get a compatible usb wireless adapter for 10.04, any suggestions?? | 20:07 |
| Mallen_ | dpac: In term or disk utility? | 20:07 |
| atomicsunset | Loshki, isnt that for windows only? | 20:07 |
| Vigo | progre55_: It only works with jigido files, bittorent and other packages may help, also there are many many system tweaks, but one is actually limited . most times , by ISP throttling. | 20:07 |
| sh10151 | sebsebseb: seems like even if it nominally worked, the guest XP OS could mess up the wubi file | 20:07 |
| dpac | Mallen_, terminal | 20:07 |
| sebsebseb | sh10151: having Ubuntu inside WIndows like that is ok for trying, but in the long run, better to have Windows in a virtual machine, inside a better OS, or not at all :D | 20:07 |
| kjele | silverdrake11: The files are deleted. It is just that you have some corruption with trash. You can try to reboot and then decide to reset everything. | 20:07 |
| dpac | Mallen_, again, are you sure this is not root filesystem? | 20:08 |
| CogitoErgoSam | dual booting usually works fine too | 20:08 |
| totic | how do you use the disown command? it uses job specs instead of PID | 20:08 |
| progre55 | Vigo: I see.. thanks. Actually I remember once installing flashget using wine. let me try it again ) | 20:08 |
| sebsebseb | sh10151: uh Virtualbox inside Wubi? | 20:08 |
| Mallen_ | dpac: What do you mean by root filesystem? what I have ubuntu installed on? | 20:08 |
| ActionParsnip | sebsebseb: or install to usb, better than both | 20:08 |
| ChrisC_ | Does anyone know if there is a fix for mic and pulseaudio. With the mic not working in Skype? | 20:08 |
| dpac | Mallen_, yes | 20:08 |
| sh10151 | sebsebseb: yeah, wubi install of linux runs VirtualBox which loads original OS from nt partition | 20:09 |
| anom01y | Hi, since I've dowgraded to xubuntu 10.04 my nvidia geforce 6200 (that was working in 9.10) now is unable to work with any of the drivers in hardware drivers gui. | 20:09 |
| Mallen_ | dpac: postive my ubuntu is on an old IDE HD | 20:09 |
| Vigo | progre55: That was to be my next suggestion, sort of. | 20:09 |
| futuram | http://gtkpod.git.sourceforge.net/git/gitweb.cgi?p=gtkpod/libgpod;a=blob_plain;f=README.SysInfo;hb=HEAD doesnt make any sense. CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME decypher these instructions??? | 20:09 |
| * DanC thinks there should be an #ubuntu-sound channel... wonders if there is one... | 20:09 | |
| Mallen_ | dpac: This drive has been formated twice today | 20:09 |
| anom01y | I've tried several things, but I am stuck going through fail-safe and then low graphics mode | 20:09 |
| sh10151 | sebsebseb: seems like a terrible idea but one that might work | 20:09 |
| progre55 | ChrisC_: vaio? | 20:09 |
| sebsebseb | sh10151: ah right yeah, some how you can use a pshyical WIndows install inside Virtualbox | 20:09 |
| anom01y | also, the xubuntu splash is in 16 colors ????? | 20:09 |
| silverdrake11 | kjele, also the weird thing is these files are from when I had Karmic installed. I recently did a clean install, wiped the hard drive. Installed Lucid and yet SOMEHOW the corrupted files are still in my trash..... | 20:09 |
| Loshki | atomicsunset: handbrake used to be windows only. There are versions for ubuntu nowadays. Check your repos... | 20:09 |
| Brozilla | hi all.. | 20:09 |
| sebsebseb | sh10151: altough I don't think you can through Wubi, but maybe you can | 20:09 |
| progre55 | Vigo: thanks man =) I'll let you know if it works.. | 20:09 |
| ChrisC_ | No Samsung R20. | 20:09 |
| CogitoErgoSam | FANUM: Good news? | 20:09 |
| sebsebseb | Vigo: oh yeah thanks for links, i'll check out in a bit | 20:10 |
| dpac | Mallen_, Happening first time? Did you try to reboot? | 20:10 |
| progre55 | ChrisC_: and your card? | 20:10 |
| Mallen_ | dpac: Yep, it works fine on windows | 20:10 |
| silverdrake11 | kjele, maybe my hard drive is corrupted or something | 20:10 |
| ActionParsnip | silverdrake11: do you have a seperate home partition? | 20:10 |
| amabo | is there a command for detecting displays? | 20:10 |
| * DanC tries to list channels; fails due to rate limiting | 20:10 | |
| FANUM | CogitoErgoSam sort of. boots now and attempts full res, but is blurre dand distorted | 20:10 |
| kjele | silverdrake11: Did you format it? | 20:10 |

| maco | nocturnus: because its goal is to make ubuntu become ubiquitous ;-) | 20:11 |

| delemi | Quick question: What is the easiest way to mount a location on a seperate partition to my "places". The partition is mounted in fstab but I want it to show up in places. | 20:12 |
| sebsebseb | FANUM: as for a solution something about how can edit Grub so it only boots in text mode, plus there's this http://idyllictux.wordpress.com/2010/04/26/lucidubuntu-10-04-high-resolution-plymouth-virtual-terminal-for-atinvidia-cards-with-proprietaryrestricted-driver/ | 20:12 |
| CogitoErgoSam | FANUM: I'm afraid I'm not that experienced with the plymouth issues so I don't wanna steer you wrong but there's a lot of people with similar probs | 20:12 |
| CogitoErgoSam | so others here like ^^ can prolly help better | 20:13 |
| kjele | marcus: The block device must be the one you are booting to | 20:13 |
| silverdrake11 | kjele, another weird thing is that these files do not show up in the terminal, only in nautilus | 20:13 |
| gizmobay | man my boot splash screen is nasty looking. | 20:13 |
| FANUM | sebsebseb plymount appears to be funcitioning, or atleast displaying properly | 20:13 |
| Brozilla | i have ubuntu 10.04 32bit and it hangs at desktop for like 30 sec then icons load.. any ideas how to fix?? is it normal?? | 20:13 |
| sebsebseb | FANUM: it's if you have a propritary graphics card driver installed, that your likely to get issues with it | 20:13 |
| FANUM | sebsebseb it isnt untill x actually starts that it gets distorted | 20:13 |
| nocturnus | maco: can't find any links about it on google | 20:13 |
| FANUM | its intel | 20:13 |
| FANUM | so no prop drivers | 20:13 |
| Mallen_ | dpac: how to i modify gedit? | 20:13 |
| maco | nocturnus: so? | 20:13 |
| sebsebseb | FANUM: ok so you got some other issue then it seems, well can't help | 20:13 |
| kjele | silverdrake11: Yea. That is why you should at least reboot the system. | 20:13 |
| dpac | yes, sudo gedit /etc/mtab | 20:13 |
| FANUM | sebsebseb thats cool, thanks anyways | 20:14 |
| marcus | kjele: iḿ sorry: what is a block device? | 20:14 |
| maco | nocturnus: possibly mozilla naming their code ubiquity too is screwing up the google juice | 20:14 |
| CogitoErgoSam | Brozilla: was the slow load time the first boot up after installing 10.04? | 20:14 |
| nocturnus | maco: so, is it called 'ubuntuiquity' or 'ubiquity' if i were to apt-get it? | 20:14 |
| maco | nocturnus: but i rather doubt much exists about ubiquity outside of the source code and maybe the ubuntu wiki page | 20:14 |
| Mallen_ | dpac: found it. This line? /dev/sdc1 / ext3 rw,errors=remount-ro 0 0 | 20:14 |
| maco | nocturnus: ubiquity | 20:14 |
| delemi | brozilla: I had that happen on my laptop after upgrade, did fresh install and solved the issue | 20:14 |
| silverdrake11 | kjele ok let me reboot | 20:14 |

| tripelb | kjele, thank you so much for telling me how to fix my screen resolution in 9.10 Kudos! | 20:17 |
| harisson | sorry | 20:17 |
| dpac | Mallen_, weird | 20:17 |
| CogitoErgoSam | After troubleshooting my probs after upgrading I don't feel like quitting, I feel like I have an even better understanding of the OS | 20:17 |
| dpac | Mallen_, What filesystem is it? | 20:17 |
| knasto_ | kjele, it wont let me rename. It's greyed out. | 20:17 |
| Mallen_ | dpac: NTFS | 20:18 |
| anom01y | is there a ubuntu out there that will last 10 years ? | 20:18 |
| knasto_ | kjele, the only thing I can do is copy. | 20:18 |
| Vigo | CogitoErgoSam: That's the spirit! | 20:18 |
| sebsebseb | anom01y: also of course there are other distros you could use instead of Ubuntu, if you want | 20:18 |
| CogitoErgoSam | ^^ | 20:18 |
| kjele | marcus: After you install grub do a grub update with "sudo update-grub2 | 20:18 |
| sebsebseb | anom01y: nope it's not like Windows, they don't support the distro for 10 years | 20:18 |
| anom01y | sebsebseb, yeah seriously considering that | 20:18 |
| anom01y | something more reliable | 20:18 |
| kjele | marcus: The 2 is " | 20:18 |
| sebsebseb | !lts | anom01y | 20:18 |
| ubottu | anom01y: LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server. The current LTS version of Ubuntu is !Lucid (Lucid Lynx 10.04) | 20:18 |
| CogitoErgoSam | So many flavors of linux for your needs | 20:18 |
| kjele | tripelb: Good it worked | 20:18 |
| dpac | Mallen_, did you provide -t switch while mounting? | 20:18 |
| Loshki | anom01y: 10 years is a lifetime in computer years... | 20:18 |
| CogitoErgoSam | server, netbook, desktop, cutting edge or stability, theres one out there that will fit ya perfect | 20:18 |
| futuram | Is there a reaosn my MNT directory is empty? | 20:18 |
| dpac | Mallen_, mount -t ntfs /dev/sdc1 | 20:18 |
| Mallen_ | dpac: dont think so, but i do not no what a -ts witch | 20:19 |
| knasto_ | kjele, I can copy it to the desktop and renamed it. Then it deletes just fine. | 20:19 |
| anom01y | Loshki, why ? if I don't change my hardware (which works perfectly fine until a solar storm hits my computer) | 20:19 |
| kjele | knasto_: use the mv command it is like this "mv oldname newname" | 20:19 |
| CogitoErgoSam | and if all else fails you can start with a slimmed down distro and build it up to your needs | 20:19 |
| dpac | Mallen_, mount -t ntfs /dev/sdc1 /media/sdc1 | 20:19 |
| ActionParsnip | CogitoErgoSam: with the package release schedule, not very cutting edge ;) | 20:19 |
| dpac | Mallen_, but first create a folder names sdc1 under /media | 20:19 |
| josvuk | what is the name of the chatroom for ubuntu on ppc especially apple (powerbook not macbookpro :-() | 20:19 |
| anom01y | the only thing that should be able to take out my computer should be an EM pulse, not a stupid upgrade and "dropped support" from ati or nvidia (as usual) | 20:19 |
| kjele | knasto_: ok. Just to make backup your config files | 20:19 |

| brontosaurusrexw | CogitoErgoSam: yes, or write your own OS | 20:20 |
| Loshki | anom01y: because of Moore's law. It's not even clear your hardware will last that long... | 20:20 |

| kjele | knasto_: Then it should be possible to move that folder with "mv ~/.gnome2 ~/gnome2.bak" | 20:24 |
| anom01y | maco yeah in text mode ? | 20:24 |
| falconic | sebsebseb: I have installed ubuntu as guest OS on a CentOS Host under Xen (using stacklet images)...but when I boot.. the Xen is stuck waiting for root device | 20:24 |
| maco | Guest10265: "dpkg -L packagename" (listing the name of the package you installed) will get you a list of what was in there | 20:24 |

| anom01y | maco, 16 colors ? | 20:24 |
| rcsheets_ | On Lucid, how can I change the default text editor from gedit to gvim? | 20:24 |
| maco | anom01y: it was a pentium 2, 192mb ram, and it ran 7.04 | 20:24 |
| Shapeshifter | ActionParsnip: mh, though, if I'm not mistaken, stuff in /etc/modprobe.d should always end on *.conf, with files not ending on conf being ignored in the future. that factoid might need some updating | 20:24 |
| marcus | kjele: ... the report said nothing (anymore) about windows | 20:24 |
| Mallen_ | dpac: You the man! Any ideas what cuased this to happen? | 20:24 |
| knasto_ | kjele, oh Im sorry I thought you meant move the files in the trash | 20:24 |
| anom01y | I should just go 100% command line | 20:24 |
| maco | anom01y: no, it had an ati card capable of only doing 800x600 as it was a 10 year old card | 20:25 |

| CogitoErgoSam | Name141: Any luck? | 20:25 |
| anom01y | maco, how the hell did you get drivers for that ???????? | 20:25 |
| falconic | oh okie | 20:25 |
| ActionParsnip | Shapeshifter: true, the factoid is mildly incorrect, good catch | 20:25 |
| falconic | let me do that/ | 20:25 |
| Name141 | CogitoErgoSam: yes | 20:25 |
| kjele | marcus: No, I mean to backup the config files | 20:25 |
| maco | anom01y: i used the open source drivers | 20:25 |
| anom01y | I can't even get 6 year old drivers for ati card | 20:25 |
| kjele | marcus: You are on lucid right? | 20:25 |
| acicula | anom01y, use the open source drivers | 20:25 |
| maco | anom01y: i absolutely DO NOT use hardware that requires proprietary drivers, period | 20:25 |
| haavaros | I'm trying to install a .deb package, but it tells me another package manager is running ... even after a reboot? What can I do? | 20:25 |
| anom01y | maco, yeah good point | 20:25 |
| dpac | Mallen_, most probably the missing -t switch caused this to happen. It took your drive to be ext3 and mounted | 20:25 |
| CogitoErgoSam | Name141: I think so, I just did stop / start | 20:25 |
| kjele | knasto_: no I mean to backup the config files | 20:26 |
| maco | anom01y: my other machines that are nearly 10 years old have intel graphics, which means when theyre 15 years old they're still likely to work fine | 20:26 |

| kjele | marcus: Sorry about that two chat at the same time is a bit hard =P | 20:26 |
| maco | anom01y: youknow, there ARE open source drivers for nvidia cards | 20:26 |
| anom01y | acicula, which vid card ? | 20:26 |
| Name141 | CogitoErgoSam: I might as well change it back to 22 | 20:26 |

| kjele | marcus: You are on lucid but have the old grub which is a bit suspicious. | 20:26 |

| maco | anom01y: erm, nouveau have been benchmarked as /faster/ than the open ones nvidia released years ago | 20:27 |
| acicula | anom01y, anyway you dont _have_ to use binary/proprietary drivers, both ati and nvidia come by default with open source drivers | 20:27 |
| marcus | kjele: there i went wrong: the update of the grub caused the crash | 20:27 |
| Vigo | haavaros: strange, did you try a Force Quit or kill? | 20:27 |
| ActionParsnip | zaz_: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuHashes | 20:27 |
| maco | anom01y: are you still thinking of the nv driver? nvidia dropped support for that. lucid ships nouveau which is faster, open source, and gaining 3D support | 20:27 |
| ActionParsnip | zaz_: looks good to me | 20:27 |
| kjele | marcus: With the new lucid install? | 20:27 |
| CogitoErgoSam | Name141: I'm not a real big networking type but I think if you're usin a router as a switch doesn't it still act as a managed one with forwarding and stuff? The diff is just that its not doing DHCP leases? | 20:27 |
| haavaros | Vigo: of what? Don't know the package managers' process names | 20:27 |
| marcus | kjele: yes | 20:27 |
| Name141 | CogitoErgoSam: the modem does the DHCP | 20:28 |
| maco | anom01y: proprietary nvidia drivers do 16colour mode on boot in lucid yeah, and thats because they dont support kms & plymouth right. nouveau works | 20:28 |

| dxtr | Why? | 20:29 |
| zaz_ | ActionParsnip: OK, is this a reported issue? | 20:29 |

| marcus | kjele: the crash was when updating 9.10 to 10.04. Noting was bootable after that. So I installes 10.04 on an unused part of the hard disk. This succeded. I hoped that the installation would solve the problem, but it did not | 20:30 |
| acicula | anom01y, did you manually install nvidia binary drivers or enable hardware drivers? | 20:30 |
| Knetik | What file do I select to install a theme??????// | 20:30 |
| ActionParsnip | acicula: sometimes it is needed. I need one for my nvidia 6150 using the white monito connector (not vga) | 20:30 |

| anom01y | i have 3 selections in "hardware drivers" none allow me to load X | 20:30 |

| daleglass | Hi! I just upgraded to Lucid, and found a problem here. I'm trying to debug a mono app, so I attach gdb and get: "warning: the debug information found in "/usr/lib/debug/usr/bin/mono" does not match "/usr/bin/mono" (CRC mismatch). (no debugging symbols found)...done". This happens with quite a few -dbg packages, and as a result debugging doesn't really work very well. | 20:31 |
| maco | futuram: what is its device node and mount point? | 20:31 |
| kjele | marcus: Well just show me your "sudo fdisk -l" paste it into a pastebin | 20:31 |
| Vigo | haavaros: Do you use Synaptic Package manager, Software Center or command line? | 20:31 |

| Scunizi | acicula: please re-read my post | 20:32 |
| marcus | kjele: no... my first attemt was to reinstall 10.04 on this partition, but it did not work: the partition manager could not acces this partition propper... so i formatted the partition. This did not work either. So I installtes 10.04 on an unused part of the hard disk | 20:32 |
| kjele | silverdrake11: Did you backup the files and then deleted them and then did a reboot_? | 20:32 |
| acicula | Scunizi, killal X | 20:32 |
| delemi | Thanks ActionParsnip | 20:32 |
| Scunizi | acicula: ah! that might work.. thanks | 20:32 |

I'm currently trying to install grub into a partition using the livecd. but it's coming up with the error "/usr/sbin/grub-probe: error: cannot find a device for /boot/grub (is /dev mounted?).

| przemko | ok | 20:40 |
| ActionParsnip | fasp_: test then review | 20:40 |
| kjele | silverdrake11: Ok. But remember they are gone really. You should try to run a fsck on the system to see if there are no damage | 20:40 |

| * hrj123 just registered | 20:52 | |

| anom01y | acicula_, so turn them all off (including 173.x) ?? | 20:52 |

| anonymous_me | acicula_, just looked in the ppcfaq in the ubuntu wiki. how would you do this at boot? | 20:54 |

| anom01y | question for all: WHY CAN'T XUBUNTU 10.04 USE THE SAME DRIVERS I WAS USING IN 9.10 FOR NVIDIA ? how can nvidia "drop support" and ubuntu not realize this and use the drivers that did work before in previous versions ???????? | 20:57 |

| maco | ActionParsnip: that wikipedia page is a list of in the wild ones i thought? only about 30 ever and the only reason theyre not infecting current machines is security updates, making anom01y's question incredibly naive | 21:02 |
| brontosaurusrexw | lappert: the other way is to use ssh , filezilla can then be used as windows client for example | 21:03 |
| maco | ActionParsnip: if you count not-in-the-wild ones, you easily get into the several-hundreds, iirc | 21:03 |
| brontosaurusrexw | lappert: much easier in my humble opinion | 21:03 |
| zohar | stereocaulon - tried it, i cant choose better res, and my mouse pointer is looking wired | 21:03 |
| Jowi | delac, System > preferences > Power management. "Make Default". When you add users make sure they are not admins. | 21:03 |

| urthmover | I have a graphics/Xserver type question: I would like to display my graphics output at 1024x768 to a projector. Unfortunately the screen has an aspect ratio of 16:9. Is it possible to force the gdm desktop to live within the 16:9 portion which is 1024x600? | 21:04 |
| ip-route | hi | 21:04 |
| Stereocaulon | zohar, please specifiy. Is your cursor looking like a square and changing whenever you click on an image? | 21:04 |

| kjele | btw which file to touch again to force fsck on next boot? | 21:05 |
| amabo | does anyone else know how to detect displays from either the command line or when a monitor is disabled? | 21:05 |
| Jowi | delac, also, if you right click on the ubuntu icon in the top left corner you can edit the menus and remove the preferences you don't want to show. | 21:05 |
| Spreadsheet_ | Why isn't GNOME Control Centre easily accessible from Ubuntu? | 21:05 |
| zohar | stereocaulon - yea! | 21:06 |
| ActionParsnip | !fsck | kjele | 21:06 |
| ubottu | kjele: fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo shutdown -F -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot | 21:06 |
| ismael_ | hello | 21:06 |
| Stereocaulon | zohar, you need to add the following kernel-parameter in your grub-config: nomodeset | 21:07 |
| kjele | ActionParsnip: The F flag won't do it | 21:07 |
| Spreadsheet_ | GNOME Control Centre is already installed, but it doesn't show up anywhere | 21:07 |
| ActionParsnip | kjele: could boot to root recovery and fsck there | 21:08 |
| zohar | stereocaulon - where ? and how ? | 21:08 |
| red | whats the default folder of installed programs? | 21:08 |
| delemi | I found gnome control center and added it to my system tab | 21:08 |
| red | i found the executable files from usr/bin | 21:08 |
| kjele | ActionParsnip: They remove that too. And you cannot umount the disk | 21:08 |
| red | but need to find the actualy program files etc :) | 21:08 |
| respire | by default, how many times does sudo give you chances to get your password right | 21:09 |
| red | respire: twice? | 21:09 |
| acicula_ | Spreadsheet_, most options from gnome-control center are made available under preferences/administration | 21:09 |
| sartan | heya; 10.04 upgrade went great, but aesthetically is it possible to move the close, minimize and maximize buttons from the left side of a window title bar to the right? | 21:09 |
| ActionParsnip | kjele: they didn't. Hold shift when grub shows up | 21:09 |
| delemi | make a launcher command is gnome-control-center | 21:09 |
| Rave1 | Spreadsheet_, check in main menu to see if it is enabled | 21:09 |
| kjele | respire: Well you can always run the command again | 21:09 |
| red | respire: 3 actually | 21:09 |
| Kuifje111 | how do I transfer files from one headless pc to another headless pc, both running linux? preferably an easy way to do this. | 21:09 |

| sartan | thank you Archiduque | 21:10 |
| Stereocaulon | zohar, whenever Ubuntu starts you first see the grub bootloader, right? It is counting down to start your kernel. You can stop the countdown by using the arrow keys. From there you can type e to edit the line that starts your kernel. just add nomodeset on the send and you should be fine. | 21:10 |

| ubottu | mdgeorge: To install a Java runtime/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java products search for sun-java6 -packages from the !Multiverse repository (!partner repository in Lucid) | 21:26 |
| j00bar | neverblue: and you need x11 forwarding setup in your ssh connection | 21:26 |
| acicula_ | lsemple, if you want it to work in 10 years then just dont update | 21:26 |
| kjele | mdgeorge: If you want the sun one you need to enable the partner repo | 21:26 |
| lsemple | acicula_: why need maintaining | 21:26 |
| lsemple | acicula_: ok | 21:26 |
| doohan | Lo all, I'm wanting to update from 9.10 to the 10.04 but the update manager doesn't show any update, am I missing something? | 21:26 |
| lsemple | sounds good | 21:26 |
| acicula_ | lsemple, why do anything, why do you not run windows 95? | 21:26 |
| jibadhee | Enable the thirdparty repos mdgeorge then it will show up | 21:26 |
| mdgeorge | kjele: I believe it is, how can I check? | 21:26 |
| lsemple | but ubuntu stops supporting 9.10 in 1 year | 21:26 |
| alonea | ok, I added a program to my favorites, but it doesn't keep the custom icon I set for it. How do I do that? (Like, the program is under Programming, I set the icon, but if I say put to favorites, the icon in Favorites is different) | 21:26 |
| lsemple | then what do I do, can I keep using it ???? | 21:26 |
| lsemple | just ignore the annoying "update" red arrow in the tray area | 21:27 |
| acicula_ | lsemple, tht doesnt mean the software stops working, it means there will be no more updates to it, including no more security updates | 21:27 |
| kjele | mdgeorge: Then read what the bot told you | 21:27 |
| neverblue | j00bar: so just run XMing ? | 21:27 |
| lsemple | acicula_: well good, I do my own security stuff anyway | 21:27 |

| lsemple | acicula_: get a good old honeypot | 21:27 |
| tylo | Hello. Can anyone explain why GCC would be reporting that I don't have "math.h" functions, even though I have #include <math.h> at the top of my C program? | 21:27 |
| neverblue | j00bar: well, thanks for your reply :) | 21:27 |
| acicula_ | lsemple, honeypots dont give you security | 21:27 |
| lsemple | acicula_: ok, well thats my plan, back to 9.10 | 21:27 |
| winXPuser | tylo, ##csharp ? | 21:27 |
| kjele | tylo: in C you need to include it. With C++ you do not confusing? | 21:28 |
| neverblue | tylo, not to seem rude, but this is an Ubuntu (OS) channel... | 21:28 |
| Shapeshifter | huh | 21:28 |
| tylo | I know, I am doing this in a fresh installation of Ubuntu | 21:28 |
| winXPuser | tylo, maybe #c++ too | 21:28 |
| Shapeshifter | cron isn't even running | 21:28 |
| Shapeshifter | what is this... | 21:28 |
| lsemple | acicula_: well, If someone wants to remote hack my ubuntu computer and steal my porn then good for them, | 21:28 |

| kebomix1 | how can i upgrade to kde 4.4.3 . any ppa , i use kubuntu 10.04 | 21:28 |

| chazco | I've had to roll back to 9.10 since 10.04 has some major regressions... when 9.10 gets EOL will there be any way to keep it secure? | 21:28 |
| neverblue | tylo: using the math.h in C, is not apart of a -new install of Ubuntu- | 21:28 |
| kjele | tylo: That would mean when you compile it you need to use the I flag to the path to where math.h is installed | 21:28 |
| acicula_ | chazco, disconnect it from the intternet | 21:29 |
| tylo | ? | 21:29 |
| lsemple | acicula_: if I was using Windows wouldn;t my chances of getting security problems be around 1,000,000's greater ? | 21:29 |
| tylo | oops | 21:29 |
| kjele | neverblue: math.h was never included as a default linker in C | 21:29 |
| lsemple | or does MS hack Linux ? | 21:29 |
| acicula_ | lsemple, that depends | 21:29 |
| acicula_ | lets take this offtopic | 21:29 |
| chazco | acicula_ - Heh, that's one idea :) Avoiding DVD/CD/USB would help too :) | 21:29 |
| lsemple | I bet nvidia tries to hack linux | 21:29 |
| tylo | but a fresh installation of Ubuntu should come with the necessary components to compile a C program that includes math.h right? | 21:29 |

| acicula_ | chazco, yeah but those are not as high risk as using the internet , atm anyway | 21:30 |
| Shapeshifter | ubuntu just uses too much magic. upstart, service utility... whatever, why not just use init.d and be sane | 21:30 |

| fiver22 | Rhythmbox crashes when adjusting volume within the application. Adjsy system volume does not cause crash. Running 10.04 clean install. Any suggestions on how to fix it? | 21:31 |

| mdgeorge | has anyone else managed to install sun java on 10.04? | 21:31 |

| lsemple | jbell: yeah | 21:51 |
| sebsebseb | jbell: yes propritary driver gives the black screen | 21:51 |
| jbell | yeah, you better wait for the next revision of that | 21:51 |
| sebsebseb | jbell: now there seems to be a fix, something about edting Grub 2 and uh. and stuff like that | 21:51 |

| jbell | nvidia probably doesn't let you compile their stuff | 21:52 |

| vinceman | flansuse it's reading in the database right nwo | 21:54 |

| aaron11 | sebsebseb: But boots up perfectly fast. 15 seconds | 21:54 |
| lsemple | sebsebseb: jbell its gotten to the stage now where I can't even load up the recovery mode menu (ie. fix grub, enter low graphics mode)... | 21:54 |
| flansuse | vinceman, well then hurry up! JEEZE! | 21:54 |
| lsemple | that doesnt even work | 21:54 |
| Marupa | funkyHat: I want to boot on the raid array. I currently have sda1 set to /boot, and sda2/sdb1/sdc1/sdd1 raided as / | 21:54 |
| flansuse | vinceman, you forgot to use the --fast-database-update parameter! | 21:54 |

| * andybe i have no /proc/acpi/video/VID/LCD/brightness | 21:54 | |
| * sebsebseb with working Plymouth the other computer shows it for like 3 seconds or something, boots up really fast, and it's so fast it's already loading up the course for the log in screen (KDM not GDM 2, since that one sucks), the same curosue that will be used once logged in to Ubuntu as well. | 21:54 | |

| lsemple | sebsebseb: well it was working, but after trying all the different nvidia drivers, and resetting (none of them ever worked), | 21:56 |
| funkyHat | Marupa: no matter. My solution would be not to set up the raid in the raid card's preferences, remove all of the arrays. Use the alternate install CD and set up md raid | 21:56 |

| Marupa | progrock`: install libapache2-mod-php5 and then restart apache2, that SHOULD fix it... | 21:58 |
| sebsebseb | apparnatly can get noveaou to be used only for Plymouth by editing Grub 2, and then the propritary driver used for everything else | 21:58 |
| progrock` | all I can think of is I don't have permissions set right in apache to allow php execution everywhere... but its been so long since I've ran a server, i forget | 21:58 |

| sebsebseb | xfact: 1. remove the theme you don't want from synaptic. 2 install another one | 22:11 |
| solovoy | delemi, mmmm i think that can be a problem with my ubuntu x64 | 22:12 |
| sebsebseb | xfact: 3. re boot to try it out, unless there's still some other theme, so it loads up that one instead | 22:12 |
| Veliouras | linxeh: i know it seems greek to you but i tried to describe it | 22:12 |
| Paddy_NI | bas: Well.. any joy? | 22:12 |
| aj00200 | !controls | aj00200 | 22:12 |
| ubottu | aj00200, please see my private message | 22:12 |
| xfact | sebsebseb, Seriously, plymouth theme changeing this easy! Well can you suggest one good theme to use? Just asking :) | 22:13 |
| bas | Paddy_NI, no | 22:13 |
| fsaintjacques | funkyHat: the `lucid' process is still running though, and the update manager is throwing me errors. | 22:13 |
| Paddy_NI | bas: any further info? | 22:13 |
| delemi | solovoy: maybe it is. Can you uninstall FF and Flash and reinstall them? | 22:13 |
| sebsebseb | xfact: the ubuntu text or whatever it is, the basic boot up one, I think that can useaully stay installed without it stopping another theme from being used. | 22:13 |
| funkyHat | fsaintjacques: can you run 'ps aux | grep lucid' and put the output into a pastebin? | 22:14 |
| bas | Paddy_NI, i dont know, i said i m new user,i cant understnad any thing,please tell me some command so that i can try from cli | 22:14 |
| vago_ | sebsebseb, really I prefer Opensuse :-)) but with opensuse I have a lot of problems with my broadcom wifi :-) in Ubuntu it's really easy to install driver for broadcom :-) just install bcm-kernel and that's all :-) | 22:14 |
| solovoy | delemi, and with cromium the page don't load | 22:14 |
| xfact | sebsebseb, Anyways thank you for assistance :) | 22:14 |
| Chetic_ | how do I do modprobe -r on a module that is in use? | 22:14 |
| delemi | solovoy: do a complete removal and reinstall. Make sure you have an alt browser. | 22:14 |
| sebsebseb | xfact: when 10.04 was in development I tried them all in virtual machines and they are all good really, unfortunatly though now after upgarding other computer from 9.10 to 10.04, I have right plymouth issues if Nivida propritary driver is installed, since it doesn't like it, but will attempt to fix this later on tonight, or in the day | 22:14 |
| solovoy | delemi, i try with opera and then i try that | 22:14 |
| Paddy_NI | bas: I did.. and I know you are new.. but did you even try searching in the Software Center? | 22:14 |
| sebsebseb | vago_: these days I prefer Mandriva for my own personal useage :) | 22:14 |
| delemi | solovoy: hope you get it working. I would try the reinstall | 22:14 |
| fsaintjacques | funkyHat: http://pastebin.com/UkgV0T11 | 22:14 |
| vago_ | sebsebseb, me too, but in Mandriva wifi problem too :-((( | 22:15 |
| sebsebseb | vago_: I am so glad I got rid of Ubuntu 9.10 on here and put Mandriva One 2010 on :) | 22:15 |
| KaOSoFt | Can I insert multiple line commands in the terminal? I mean, like giving a return carriage at the end of each line, but only at the end execute them all linearly. | 22:15 |
| KaOSoFt | I hope I made myself clear. :s | 22:15 |
| LzrdKing | KaOSoFt: end the line with \ | 22:15 |
| sebsebseb | vago_: ,but since that other computer isn't just for me, I am not so sure about putting Mandriva on it at the moment, because of a few reasons. | 22:15 |
| solovoy | delemi, me too | 22:15 |
| sudobash | can anyone explain the proper way to install custom Printer Drivers in Ubuntu 9.10, it seems that there is not a way to load PPD's in the Admin Printing Application? | 22:15 |
| sebsebseb | vago_: this also means OpenGL must work, so yeah propritary Nivida driver, so these Plymouth issues are ah! | 22:15 |
| brontosaurusrexw | sebsebseb: and i'am still sorry i upgraded from 9.04, so ill stay on 9.10 for few days now ;) | 22:15 |
| linxeh | Veliouras: http://www.panathagrforum.net/phpbb2/templates/subSilver/images/folder_new_big.gif ? | 22:15 |
| bas | Paddy_NI, i m getting this error ....You have 1 broken package on your system!Use the "Broken" filter to locate it. | 22:16 |
| xfact | sebsebseb, But would you agree with me that default plymouth screen is not so stylish and buggy (flickers..) | 22:16 |
| sebsebseb | brontosaurusrexw: yes same here in a way | 22:16 |
| KaOSoFt | LzrdKing- Like: ./buildconf --force \ [insert Enter here] ? | 22:16 |
| funkyHat | fsaintjacques: ok. can you kill that process and then run sudo apt-get -f dist-upgrade | 22:16 |
| vago_ | I don't have nvidia problems :-)) because I use laptop with Intel GMA chipset ;-) | 22:16 |
| sebsebseb | brontosaurusrexw: well I ended up doing a clean install of Ubuntu on the other computer, before I wanted to since... | 22:16 |

| monty_hall | Any body know how to resolve slow running wine apps? | 22:16 |
| sebsebseb | brontosaurusrexw: that's when 9.04 on there went bye bye, good release though | 22:16 |
| LzrdKing | KaOSoFt: thats only one line :P | 22:16 |
| LzrdKing | ohh | 22:16 |
| Veliouras | liinxeh: i can see that image but it is not displayed in the main page | 22:16 |
| monty_hall | some kind of wine trick that I'm missing? | 22:16 |
| KaOSoFt | LzrdKing- Well, I mean if it worked like that. :P | 22:16 |
| Veliouras | linxeh: i can see that image but it is not displayed in the main page | 22:16 |
| Paddy_NI | bas: you should have told me that you had previous errors.. okay lets see.. join #Paddy_NI | 22:16 |
| LzrdKing | KaOSoFt: yes, then the last line, do not end with \ | 22:16 |
| funkyHat | fsaintjacques: that should finish the upgrade. You might be left with some extra packages that update manager would have removed for you, you use computer-janitor to remove them instead | 22:16 |
| KaOSoFt | LzrdKing- Yep, it worked. | 22:17 |
| linxeh | Veliouras: that was the one next to the "New Posts" link at the bottom | 22:17 |
| KaOSoFt | THANK YOU VERY MUCH! | 22:17 |
| mot | Can I ask for help here? I exported my mail from thunderbird to a file called "inbox". Then I installed a clean new 10.04 version of ubuntu. Then thunderbird. Thunderbird now wont recognise my "inbox" file which i exported previouslu? I need that mails. | 22:17 |
| delemi | monty_hall: go to term and type top and past me the wine line | 22:17 |

| Shapeshifter | guys, really. can nobody tell me how to start nfsd at boot? ... >.> Here's initctl list http://pastie.org/944213 . There's no nfsd. and I can start it by hand and then everything is fine but it won't run at boot. Same goes for crond. | 22:17 |
| _pg_ | anyone get cs4 master suite working in wine? I followed a guide but it just crashes on lauch | 22:17 |
| sebsebseb | xfact: the default one isn't that good yeah | 22:17 |
| sebsebseb | xfact: also rather purple uh | 22:17 |
| Shapeshifter | so how do I run crond and nfsd at boot the ubuntu-way= | 22:17 |
| Shapeshifter | ? | 22:17 |
| sudobash | Does anyone know how to use custom PPD printer drivers in Ubuntu 9.10? | 22:17 |
| sebsebseb | xfact: well that's how Ubuntu is going now, more purple looking, but also Mac OS X like | 22:17 |
| sebsebseb | xfact: this is only the start of that | 22:17 |
| fsaintjacques | funkyHat: thank you, also, I would like to know. I personnaly prefer upgrading from command line with screen. Is the ubuntu update manager simply changing the distribution in /etc/apt/sources.list and the calling a dist-upgrade via apt? | 22:17 |
| joaopinto | Shapeshifter, it should start automatically once you install it | 22:17 |
| joaopinto | Shapeshifter, same for crond | 22:18 |
| Gogy | hi | 22:18 |
| M0DCM_Dave | Purple?? I'm colour blind and thought it was blue | 22:18 |
| Shapeshifter | joaopinto: .... well it doesn't. cron stop/waiting | 22:18 |
| Shapeshifter | obviously. | 22:18 |

| === lsemple is now known as anom01y | ||
| Veliouras | linxeh: ok, but i can't see it in the main page | 22:18 |
| funkyHat | fsaintjacques: it does some other things such as resolving incompatibilies. There is a command line version - do-release-upgrade | 22:18 |
| joaopinto | fsaintjacques, no, to upgrade from the console you use: do-release-upgrade | 22:18 |
| Gogy | ubuntu rulz | 22:18 |
| Gogy | anway | 22:18 |
| brontosaurusrexw | sebsebseb: you say that (osx like) as it is a bad thing? | 22:18 |
| Twitch | google IRC, eh? | 22:18 |
| sebsebseb | M0DCM_Dave: I would much rather see blue than purple, by default :) ,but I guess when it really is as well | 22:18 |
| mot | Anybody? | 22:18 |
| joaopinto | Shapeshifter, there is something broken on your system | 22:19 |
| delemi | monty_hall: had the same issue a few days ago. Wine went zombie and was running the CPU extra hard (75 to 100%) | 22:19 |
| Twitch | how busy is this IRC anyway? | 22:19 |
| delemi | twitch: busy | 22:19 |
| sebsebseb | brontosaurusrexw: depends on the user, but take the buttons being moved to the left for example in the two new Canonical themes. It was going to be all themes to begin with by the way, untill loads of people complained on Launchpad about that. There's a famous bug thread. | 22:19 |
| M0DCM_Dave | I soon changed the yellow in 9.10 | 22:19 |
| Shapeshifter | joaopinto: dude. no. it's a fresh install, I didn't do anything. There's nothing "broken". Things don't break like that. | 22:19 |
| Pudgy | Does anyone use (firefox's) Ubiquity with a tiling WM? How does one close the Ubiquity pop-up? | 22:19 |
| fsaintjacques | funkyHat, joaopinto thank you, I guess I could have googled it, but was lazy. | 22:19 |
| Shapeshifter | ... broken... | 22:19 |
| * Shapeshifter shakes head | 22:19 | |
| _pg_ | no one leave! no one enter! there is a palindrome number of - dammit | 22:19 |
| sebsebseb | M0DCM_Dave: yellow no, that was brown | 22:19 |
| strange | i have a weird error with dual screens i cant move my mouse to my second screen using my touch pad but if i hookup my logitech dinovo i can navigate to the second screen with that | 22:19 |
| sebsebseb | M0DCM_Dave: and a bit of orange I guess as well | 22:20 |
| joaopinto | Shapeshifter, it is broken if cron did not start, a system can be broken from a fresh install, it's called a bug :) | 22:20 |
| anom01y | well how many people here downgrade back to 9.10 ? | 22:20 |
| linxeh | Veliouras: I'm on a fresh install of ubuntu 10.04, with little else installed yet and it shows up fine in firefox | 22:20 |
| M0DCM_Dave | I'm one of the unlucky Poulsbo owners waiting for a solution | 22:20 |
| woopa | Can i add music to my iPhone with rythmbox? in 10.04 | 22:20 |
| woopa | ? | 22:20 |
| sebsebseb | woopa: I think that will work now | 22:20 |
| sudobash | maybe Ubuntu need separate channels for separate problems? | 22:20 |
| woopa | How? | 22:20 |
| Shapeshifter | and why do people keep telling me that "things should happen automatically". well, how _do I do it_ by hand if I have to make it work? | 22:20 |
| sebsebseb | woopa: or at least Ubuntu will detect your iPhone | 22:20 |
| woopa | Just drag a playlist to it? | 22:20 |
| strange | i stopped using firefox when they decided to do the yahoo thing. chromium ftw | 22:20 |
| delemi | woopa: have you installed the drivers for iphone and touch | 22:20 |
| Veliouras | linxeh: do i need a plug-in or something extra? | 22:20 |
| linxeh | Veliouras: have you tried refreshing the page a couple of times - ctrl-r etc? | 22:20 |

| brontosaurusrexw | sebsebseb: i hope at least nautilus would get the right button as well (as to simplyfy the interface) | 22:20 |
| sebsebseb | strange: that's rather unfair on Firefox | 22:20 |
| |shad0w| | for _pedda_ | 22:20 |
| linxeh | Veliouras: no, its just a gif image | 22:20 |
| |shad0w| | _pg_ even | 22:21 |
| mot | My issue cant be that tough guys....save 2 minutes of your time to help me out. | 22:21 |
| sebsebseb | strange: that was Canonical's decisions nothing to do with Mozilla | 22:21 |
| strange | sebsebseb: ? | 22:21 |
| strange | oh | 22:21 |
| acicula_ | Shapeshifter, cron is started by upstart, defined in /etc/init/cron.conf | 22:21 |
| sebsebseb | strange: that was going to also make them some money | 22:21 |
| strange | well chromium is faster, so i like it better :) | 22:21 |
| brontosaurusrexw | sebsebseb: actually the only thing i took from lucid is 'new wave' theme with buttons on the left | 22:21 |
| sebsebseb | strange: Canonical that is | 22:21 |
| strange | its very light | 22:21 |

| shtirlic | hm in current chrome beta bookmarks sync is broken use dev version | 22:21 |
| sebsebseb | strange: however maybe they decided to go back to Google since, Bing apparnatly doesn't always show results properly. when searching for stuff such as Open Office. Yeah Microsoft and Yahoo made a deal, so Yahoo is Bing now days. | 22:22 |
| _pg_ | strange: what is the yahoo thing? | 22:22 |
| sudobash | Why does canonical go and change all these things all the time, cant get their mind right, I've seen like 10 different network applets and 3 or 4 printer applets why can't we just stick with what works? | 22:22 |
| sebsebseb | _pg_: when Ubuntu 10.04 was in development, for a while the default search in Firefox became Yahoo/Bing, since what I typed above | 22:22 |
| Veliouras | linxeh: yes i have, with no result. i also cleanned up the cookies | 22:22 |
| gregl | mot: I would try the thunderbird IRC channel,or their forums.. | 22:23 |
| Jowi | Chetic, sudo rmmod module_name_goes_here | 22:23 |
| balleyne | in ubuntu 10.04, how do I hide the windows for applications like gwibber and empathy? when there were systray icons, I'd just click on those... a little confused with the me menu thing | 22:23 |
| Shapeshifter | acicula_: I see, thanks. Here's the file, any clues why this doesn't run at boot? http://pastie.org/944223 looks vanilla to me | 22:23 |

| sudobash | and hard coding the blacklist in so you can do Compiz SKIP_CHECKS is taking away some of out freedoms as PC users isn't it? | 22:23 |

| balleyne | sebsebseb: yeah, so I hear. Giving it a chance, but it'd be nice to have a way to hide these windows, even if it's into a "menu" rather than the notification area | 22:24 |
| acicula_ | Shapeshifter, that is ineed vanilla | 22:25 |
| aj00200 | |shad0w|: I generated a key, but I want to know how to send my key | 22:25 |

| sudobash | I have 30-40 ppl that use ubuntu, I guess I am going to have to switch to something else if Canonical can't make their minds up and stick with what works and is solid... | 22:25 |

| woopa | It seems like you can only read music from the iPhone/iPod. But not trasfer music to it. Well that sucks. | 22:26 |
| sebsebseb | balleyne: thing is other distros won't be doing this menu stuff, and Canonical are already telling developers how to support their menu's, and so some people are worried about how it won't be compatible with other distros and such. | 22:26 |
| Jowi | D7, duplicity (or any of its front-ends) is quite nice. otherwise there are many options available to you. cp -a, rsync etc. | 22:26 |

| p1und3r | is there anyone that can help me get ubuntu to use my new nvidia drivers rather than having to run the nvidia binary everytime i boot :| (10.04) | 22:26 |
| D7 | Jowi: thanks, I will look into duplicity | 22:26 |
| delemi | monty_hall: find the version of wine you are using from a terminal type: | 22:26 |
| delemi | wine --version | 22:26 |
| sebsebseb | balleyne: _pg_ What I am typeing at the moment is off topic really, but this link http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2010/04/ubuntu-ditching-notification-area.html also links to the Canonical link about it | 22:26 |

| Jowi | Chetic_, depends on the module. either "rmmod modulename" if you can. You can also blacklist a module from loading at boot in /etc/modprobe.d (be a bit careful though so you can still boot into the system) | 22:30 |
| Shapeshifter | joaopinto: mh. let me go downstairs and look at the screen. this is odd, no runleve >.> | 22:30 |
| Shapeshifter | joaopinto: (I'm on ssh here) | 22:30 |

| altitron | Can someone recommend me a video editing program? | 22:31 |
| _SKiTZO | sudobash: was that directed to me? | 22:31 |
| sebsebseb | altitron: If your on Ubuntu 10.10 you get pittvi by default for basic video editing, there is also Kino | 22:31 |
| joaopinto | altitron, there is one included on the cd now, pitivi, but never used it | 22:31 |
| delemi | monty_hall: wget -q http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/387EE263.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add - | 22:31 |
| acicula_ | nice call joaopinto i was pondering events but i couldnt understand why cron wouldnt get any | 22:31 |
| Chetic_ | Jowi, I'd just like a way to do it without rebooting (cause webcam apps seem to crash ALL the time) | 22:31 |

| acicula_ | p1und3r, which nvidia hardware driver did you enable? | 22:32 |
| sebsebseb | altitron: ok no problem :) | 22:32 |
| sudobash | wow this is BS why you gonna call !ops on me | 22:33 |
| p1und3r | acicula_ i keep installed 195 from nvidia | 22:33 |
| joaopinto | Shapeshifter, there is something wrong with your bootprocessm you should be with runlevel 2 | 22:33 |
| p1und3r | acicula_ installing* | 22:33 |
| sebsebseb | altitron: pitvvi does look nice, just like their simple scan program does, but I don't have anything to use either for at the moment | 22:33 |
| aconbere | I'm having a hell of a time updating the bios on my X201, anyone familiar with the procedure? | 22:33 |
| SpamapS | oi, I am having a hell of a time installing 10.04 on my MacBook Pro 5,1 alongside OS X ... after installing, refit doesn't automatically pop up, and when it does, and I choose Linux, the box just seems to go into 100% CPU but the screen stays all gray forever (and by forever I mean for the 8 minutes I waited) | 22:33 |
| Jowi | Chetic, try unplugging the cam first if you can. | 22:33 |
| sebsebseb | altitron: also I want to be exact, Canonical/Ubuntu didn't make pitvvi, however they did make simple scan | 22:33 |
| Shapeshifter | joaopinto: I didn't change anything manually. | 22:33 |
| Steve431 | i have a ftp server and i do not want to allow users to delete files and folders on it what permission should i set on the folders and files | 22:33 |
| acicula_ | p1und3r, try the 173.x instead | 22:33 |
| joaopinto | Shapeshifter, did it boot without any errors ? | 22:34 |
| Steve431 | what permissions should i set on it | 22:34 |
| Veliouras | linxeh: thanks for everything, i'll try to fix it by reinstalling it | 22:34 |

| nagchampa | i've got two seperate machines running ubuntu 10.04 and on both, running qtcreator from the package manager, it takes ages to start and spawns a thread that takes 100% of one of the cpus | 22:34 |
| sebsebseb | sabbb: jdk ? | 22:34 |
| p1und3r | acicula_ i was hoping you wouldnt say that ;D | 22:34 |
| Shapeshifter | joaopinto: well yeah. | 22:34 |
| fsaintjacques | funkyHat, came across this http://nerdbynature.de/s9y/?173 | 22:34 |
| acicula_ | p1und3r, why | 22:34 |
| joaopinto | Shapeshifter, check /var/log/boot.log | 22:34 |
| sabbb | sebsebseb, yes | 22:34 |
| p1und3r | acicula_ i notice the diff between the new drivers | 22:34 |
| sebsebseb | sabbb: what's that? sounds familurish something for programming? | 22:34 |
| fsaintjacques | funkyHat: same problem here, manually installing it via dpkg seems to fix it. | 22:35 |
| shtirlic | so the question is how to disable stupid awahi ? | 22:35 |
| Shapeshifter | joaopinto: ahh, okay: init: ureadahead-other main process (720) terminated with status 4 | 22:35 |
| sabbb | how to install jdk 1.6 in lucid from cli,i m new linux user,please need help | 22:35 |
| acicula_ | p1und3r, actually it may not be the 173, sec let me have a closer look | 22:35 |
| sebsebseb | !info jdk | 22:35 |
| nagchampa | closing qtcreator doesn't seem to cause all the threads to die in a timely fashion, if at all... | 22:35 |
| ubottu | Package jdk does not exist in lucid | 22:35 |
| RnFstRuckHrd | Hey all - I am trying to prove to myself the libdvdcss is installed on my machine. Is there a command for the terminal that will tell me this? | 22:35 |

| Narya | how do I make Audacious my default player for music files? | 22:36 |
| sebsebseb | !default | Narya | 22:36 |
| ubottu | Narya: To change the default application for a filetype in Nautilus, right-click on a file, select Properties -> Open With, and then change the setting. | 22:36 |

| sabbb | how to install java 1.6 in lucid from cli,i m new linux user,please need help | 22:36 |
| vago_ | sebsebseb, it's not work for me :-( | 22:36 |
| Narya | thank you sebsebseb | 22:36 |
| sebsebseb | Narya: also I think it's | 22:36 |
| fsaintjacques | funkyHat: hum. I think I will reinstall, now dpkg is getting really messy with errors like ".: 4: Can't open /scripts/functions" | 22:36 |
| p1und3r | acicula_ pretty strane | 22:36 |
| sebsebseb | Narya: system > administration > preffered apps | 22:36 |
| Narya | yeah, that only has a couple | 22:36 |
| shtirlic | sabbb: try openjdk | 22:36 |
| sebsebseb | Narya: or if not well system > preferences > preffered apps | 22:36 |

| delemi | RnfstRuckHrd: synaptic package manager | 22:36 |
| sebsebseb | Narya: it's the second one | 22:36 |
| acicula_ | p1und3r, well running the install binary doesnt play to well with ubuntus way of enabling the hardware driver | 22:36 |
| infid | i can't ping my desktop from my laptop, or vice/versa, since rebooting my laptop. any idea why? this often happens when i reboot and eventually they start talkin to eachother again without me doing anything, but i'd like to expedite the process | 22:36 |
| joaopinto | Shapeshifter, that's just a warning, nothing that should be related to the runlevel isssue | 22:37 |
| Narya | sebsebseb: that only has a few file groups, lobs multimedia (video and music etc) all together as one | 22:37 |
| Shapeshifter | joaopinto: well there's nothing interesting apart from that | 22:37 |
| joaopinto | Shapeshifter, better file a bug for upstart | 22:37 |
| joaopinto | ubuntu-bug upstart | 22:37 |
| Narya | sebsebseb, but I will use the first way, thank you | 22:37 |
| funkyHat | fsaintjacques: erk. if that's not too much trouble it might be the simplest solution. We can probably get it working if you want to keep trying though | 22:37 |
| RnFstRuckHrd | delemi - synaptic shows it as on my machine but tis not working. I have dealt with this before where the package was here but not installed. Is there a command to verify that it is installed? | 22:37 |
| sebsebseb | Narya: ok np | 22:37 |
| joaopinto | please attach your "who -r" output and the "initctl list" output also | 22:37 |
| RnFstRuckHrd | !libdvdcss | 22:38 |
| joaopinto | Shapeshifter, you can: sudo start cron, but is just working around your problem, not a real fix | 22:38 |
| ubottu | For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also https://help.ubuntu.com/9.04/musicvideophotos/C/video.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats | 22:38 |
| Shapeshifter | joaopinto: nah. bugs get closed and moved around all the time in ubuntu. there's too many so many devs don't care. | 22:38 |
| Jowi | RnFstRuckHrd, apt-cache policy packagename | 22:38 |
| delemi | RnfstRuckHrd: only to tell if it is running or not | 22:38 |
| p1und3r | acicula_ yeah was no prob until 10.04 shame, oh well im gunna try 173 and see how i do thanks for the tip | 22:38 |
| Shapeshifter | joaopinto: yeah I know. | 22:38 |
| acicula_ | but it looks that both the 173.x and 180.x should support the 9500 | 22:38 |
| harbameerp | hello everyone | 22:38 |
| RnFstRuckHrd | delemi - what is that one? I will give it a shot | 22:38 |
| fsaintjacques | funkyHat: well, dpkg failing to run scripts associated with package in a dist-upgrade will probably results in a messed up system | 22:38 |
| delemi | RnfstRuckHrd: go to term type top | 22:38 |
| RnFstRuckHrd | Jowi - good you clearify that for me please? | 22:39 |
| p1und3r | acicula_ how do i install the driver for ubuntu, thats the problem | 22:39 |
| joaopinto | Shapeshifter, that is true in part, boot related bugs are usually worked, unless the reporter does not provide enough info | 22:39 |
| nagchampa | where do you submit bugs for community supported packages? | 22:39 |
| p1und3r | acicula_ this one works the best yet, it's just the changes don't stick on reboot | 22:39 |
| nagchampa | (as in, those not supported by canonical) | 22:39 |
| harbameerp | does anybody have a idea if it's possible to control the LED on the lid of a thinkpad SL500 (the red glowing dot on the i) ??? | 22:39 |
| RnFstRuckHrd | delemi -top (done) | 22:39 |

| acicula_ | p1und3r, uninstall the nvidia binary package you fetched, and enable the driver via Hardware Drivers | 22:39 |
| konner | Hey | 22:39 |
| === stopsign_ is now known as stopsign | ||
| delemi | RnfstRuckHrd: do you see it running? | 22:39 |
| Jowi | RnFstRuckHrd, "apt-cache policy chromium" will tell you if it is installed and what the install candidate is | 22:39 |
| p1und3r | yes i can use the newest driver only while i just installed the binary and restarted gdm, when i reboot it won't work sebsebseb | 22:40 |
| p1und3r | thats the prob | 22:40 |
| RnFstRuckHrd | delemi - no, I do not see it. But synaptic is showing it as installed | 22:40 |
| Alan | So, I've upgraded to Lucid, but i'm having problems with my wacom tablet - basically, my buttons are acting like buttons rather than modifiers. In Karmic, holding down the button meant that when i tapped with pen i would get a right-click, now pressing the button makes a right-click happen. Does anybody know how i can get the old behaviour back? | 22:40 |
| sebsebseb | p1und3r: oh right not a plymouth boot up issue then | 22:40 |
| p1und3r | i'm gunna do what acicula_ suggests if i can no longer use the newest drivers | 22:40 |
| Wulfy | heya peeps running 32bit 10.04 now my cpu supports 64 you reckon its worth the effort to switch and redo for 64bit? | 22:40 |
| funkyHat | fsaintjacques: did you find this: https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/lucid/+source/mountall/+bug/559582 | 22:40 |
| acicula_ | p1und3r, maybe you need to load the kernelmodule on boot | 22:40 |
| p1und3r | acicula_ how would i do that | 22:41 |
| delemi | RnfstRuckHrd: what do you need it for? If you don't want it you can completely remove it | 22:41 |
| acicula_ | !nvidia | 22:41 |
| ubottu | For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 22:41 |

| p1und3r | thanks | 22:41 |
| RnFstRuckHrd | I do want it - cannot play DVDs w/out as I am told | 22:41 |
| konner | So i'm wanting to make things more simple for me. I'm used to Window$ and I'm wondering how I change the "menu" icon. I got rid of the top panel and just have a bottom panel, and just put a menu icon and such. I'm wondering how I can change the icon from the ubuntu logo to a bigger icon so it will be easier to press. | 22:42 |
| delemi | RnfstRuckHrd: try to remove and reinstall | 22:42 |
| andypea | Does using etckeeper introduce any security risks. For example by caching any private keys? | 22:42 |
| Wulfy | heya peeps running 32bit 10.04 now my cpu supports 64 you reckon its worth the effort to switch and redo for 64bit? | 22:42 |
| konner | I have knowledge in using linux i just like using it that way | 22:42 |
| delemi | RnfstRuckHrd: that will verify it is there | 22:42 |
| mot | Frustration par excellence. | 22:42 |
| sebsebseb | Wulfy: dpeends | 22:42 |
| RnFstRuckHrd | delemi - k, I'ill give that another shot - standby | 22:42 |
| acicula_ | p1und3r, $ sudo gedit /etc/modules and add a line containing nvidia | 22:42 |
| sebsebseb | Wulfy: to some extent maybe on your RAM, but mainly what you want to do on a computer | 22:42 |
| Shapeshifter | joaopinto: well what do you know, someone already filed the bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nfs-utils/+bug/540637 | 22:42 |
| Shapeshifter | over a month ago btw | 22:43 |
| Wulfy | sebsebseb, 4gb ram would like to do some gaming/videos | 22:43 |
| delemi | RnfstRuckHrd: what kind of dvd are you trying to use? | 22:43 |
| sebsebseb | Wulfy: videos ? | 22:43 |
| acicula_ | p1und3r, if you ever want to switch again remember to remove that | 22:43 |
| RnFstRuckHrd | delemi - just one from my shelf (Bad Boys II) | 22:43 |
| Wulfy | sebsebseb, aye editing (home stuff tbh | 22:43 |
| p1und3r | acicula_ got it, im gunna test it out now | 22:43 |
| destroth | What would be the command to restore default sorces list? I keep getting these failed to apply package crap from dkp. | 22:44 |
| sebsebseb | Wulfy: ok, and what gaming? | 22:44 |
| delac | Jowi: FYI: at least got what I wanted. I was able to remove those options from everywhere by disabling suspend from BIOS and disabling hibernate by setting my swap less than my ram. Since the Indicator Applet did respond to that, I suspect that there might be some setting somewhere, that would have this same effect. But where... | 22:44 |
| delemi | RnfstRuckHrd:do you get an error? | 22:44 |
| joaopinto | Shapeshifter, not really, that bug report is specific to nfs | 22:44 |
| mouse | I upgraded to 10.04 and during upgrade it asked me where to install grub. I screwed up and set it to sda and sda1. Now windows on sda1 won't boot. Can someone help? | 22:44 |
| RnFstRuckHrd | No - just does not play | 22:44 |
| delemi | RnfstRuckHrd: does it mount? | 22:44 |
| RnFstRuckHrd | but neitehr do the last 10 DVDs I tried | 22:44 |
| Wulfy | sebsebseb, wow / aa 3 and internal webserver | 22:44 |
| sebsebseb | Wulfy: what's aa 3? | 22:44 |
| RnFstRuckHrd | I have not tried mounting it... :-s ? | 22:45 |
| sebsebseb | mouse: ok | 22:45 |
| Shapeshifter | joaopinto: well maybe the dude hasn't noticed that cron isn't starting either | 22:45 |
| Wulfy | sebsebseb, americas army | 22:45 |
| nagchampa | never mind, found it myself... | 22:45 |
| delemi | RnfstRuckHrd: do they show up on your desktop? | 22:45 |
| sebsebseb | mouse: yeah I got that yesterday evening when upgarding as well, never seen this before, but I knew where to install it, so I was ok :) | 22:45 |
| joaopinto | Shapeshifter, your problem seems to affect multiple services, it may be related to that bug report, but is not properly identified | 22:45 |
| sebsebseb | Wulfy: I think you can Wine that maybe not though | 22:45 |
| Shapeshifter | joaopinto: and btw this is exactly the attitude so many people on launchpad have. "this is problem is not part of our application" -> invalid/wontfix | 22:45 |
| Wulfy | sebsebseb, aye that or i think theres a ntive support for it as well | 22:45 |
| joaopinto | Shapeshifter, that is why the bug didn't got fixed, does not contain sufficient information :) | 22:45 |
| RnFstRuckHrd | no, but nothing ever does. It does show up in file manager and I can explore the contents (is that mounting) | 22:45 |
| sebsebseb | mouse: you should have put it on the first option probably, install to the acstaul hard disk MBR (Mater Boot Record) not a partition | 22:45 |
| RnFstRuckHrd | ? | 22:45 |
| mot | Im trying to convert my whole business comunity to linux ubuntu. I need help with my one problem. Its got to do with thunderbird...where and how do I get help.... | 22:45 |
| Jowi | delac, yeah that's an idea. Since your problem I got annoyed at those suspend buttons my self so I replaced it with the User Switcher applet which doesn't include them :) | 22:46 |
| Shapeshifter | joaopinto: screw that kind of bug handling. | 22:46 |
| sebsebseb | Wulfy: yeah I guess go for 64bit, it wont do any harm | 22:46 |
| woopa | delemi well it seems like i made it... Sorta. I draged som songs over to the mobile device icon i rythmbox, and it moved them to the iPhone. | 22:46 |
| jpds | mot: Here's fine. | 22:46 |
| sebsebseb | Wulfy: also good idea to check your ISO before burning to CD and installing from it by the way# | 22:46 |
| sebsebseb | !md5sum | Wulfy | 22:46 |
| ubottu | Wulfy: To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows | 22:46 |
| Wulfy | sebsebseb, indeed ive already trashed my system once with a bad iso | 22:46 |
| dhikr | o | 22:46 |
| woopa | delemi - but i dont know if it worked. | 22:46 |
| RnFstRuckHrd | delemi - no, but nothing ever does. It does show up in file manager and I can explore the contents (is that mounting)? | 22:46 |
| sebsebseb | Wulfy: and you can do a sha1sum and sha2sum or whatever it is, as well as an md5sum if you really want | 22:46 |
| dhikr | o o | 22:47 |
| joaopinto | Shapeshifter, do you have the time/interest to fix it ? If you have the will/time to keep working on the bug I will try to contact the persons which can fix it, if you don't want to there is nothing we can do | 22:47 |
| sebsebseb | dhikr: yes? | 22:47 |
| Wulfy | sebsebseb, indeed | 22:47 |
| delemi | RnfstRuckHrd: another user had the problem and did the following A bit hit and miss on my part really. I made sure to install medibuntu repositories, restricted extras, libdvdcss2 and w32codecs. | 22:47 |
| mouse | sebsebseb, Yeah I know where to install it now. I'm mostly experienced with the puppy linux grub and it seemed the most sensable to set it to sda1 since that was the one flagged to boot from. How do I fix this though? | 22:47 |
| joaopinto | Shapeshifter, your comment is true, I am trying to fight that, I have been reopening some bugs on those circumstances which got fixed later ;) | 22:47 |
| === william_ is now known as Guest72040 | ||
| RnFstRuckHrd | delemi - I will check all those and make sure they are installed waitone | 22:48 |
| sebsebseb | mouse: so on your Windows partiton is Grub? | 22:48 |
| Guest72040 | Lucid lynx is very slow on boot ups. how does i solve this? | 22:48 |
| red | I meddled around a long while trying to troubleshoot my 20-30 fps Compiz and starting compiz with "compiz --loose-binding" fixed this for me. Running happy 300-400 fps now with no flickering at all -- BUT! Where does Lucid Lynx start compiz? I'd like this to be default on startup, rather than having to manually relaunhc compiz after each boot? Any help appreciated! :) | 22:48 |
| sebsebseb | Guest72040: it's rather fast and for me, when Plymouth works | 22:48 |
| delemi | woopa: I don't have an iphone to go any further. | 22:48 |
| clgl | dam this channel gets busy lol | 22:48 |
| fsaintjacques | funkyHat: I commented the swap in fstab and it fixed the call to mountall | 22:48 |
| joaopinto | Shapeshifter, but I would recommend to file a new report, because you have more data, and we are not 100% that there are failed services on this particular bug already reported | 22:48 |
| mouse | sebsebseb, sda1 and mbr | 22:48 |
| sebsebseb | mouse: Ok got a Windows CD? | 22:48 |
| red | Guest72040: it speeds up after few boots, atleast for me it did. | 22:48 |
| Guest72040 | Sebseb. what is that? | 22:48 |
| delemi | woopa: you will just have to check the devices | 22:48 |
| joaopinto | I would leave a comment on the old bug to confirm if that "who -r" is broken | 22:48 |
| fsaintjacques | funkyHat: right now, apt-get is running with errors from time to time. | 22:48 |
| red | about 20 seconds from grub to desktop | 22:48 |
| sebsebseb | Guest72040: the new boot up, well new for Ubuntu, not for Fedora or Mandriva | 22:48 |

| lost__ | hi all, i have just installed 10.04 here but how to minimizing a window now? | 22:49 |
| mouse | sebsebseb, The cd specific for my windows version or just any windows cd? | 22:49 |
| Shapeshifter | joaopinto: I don't really have the time, no. That's why I installed ubuntu on this box and not archlinux. | 22:49 |
| Guest72040 | red thank you. My desktop the X.window sytem i asume is very slow after login. | 22:49 |
| sebsebseb | mouse: yes for your Windows install | 22:49 |
| red | oh :/ | 22:49 |
| alteregoa | darmok and jalad at tanagra | 22:49 |
| delemi | woopa: you will just have to check the devices | 22:49 |
| funkyHat | fsaintjacques: packages that don't install properly will be marked by dpkg as such, I don't think you'll end up with a messed up system as long as dpkg says it's ok | 22:49 |
| dhikr | sebsebseb sorry friend i am french and i have a problem for conect to "ubuntu-fr" : <uBOTu-fr> dhikr: thank you to read the topic, you must be registered and identified (check your email) to join the channel # ubuntu-fr ......................... i do that but impossible to conect | 22:49 |
| joaopinto | Shapeshifter, ok :| | 22:49 |
| mouse | sebsebseb, I should. | 22:49 |
| funkyHat | fsaintjacques: more of the same kind of errors? | 22:49 |
| delemi | RnfstRuckHrd: I use VLC as well | 22:49 |
| red | I meddled around a long while trying to troubleshoot my 20-30 fps Compiz and starting compiz with "compiz --loose-binding" fixed this for me. Running happy 300-400 fps now with no flickering at all -- BUT! Where does Lucid Lynx start compiz? I'd like this to be default on startup, rather than having to manually relaunch compiz after each boot? Any help appreciated! :) | 22:50 |
| sebsebseb | dhikr: ok no problem | 22:50 |
| anom01y | well I've installed xubuntu 9.10 again everything is back up and running. I keep forgetting the golden rule: if it ain't broke don't fix it. | 22:50 |

| konner | So i'm wanting to make things more simple for me. I'm used to Window$ and I'm wondering how I change the "menu" icon. I got rid of the top panel and just have a bottom panel, and just put a menu icon and such. I'm wondering how I can change the icon from the ubuntu logo to a bigger icon so it will be easier to press. | 22:51 |
| fsaintjacques | funkyHat: I'm also getting library loading error to libnih.so | 22:51 |
| funkyHat | fsaintjacques: running « apt-get -f install » might help too | 22:51 |

| Guest72040 | sebseb so i just have to wait until it all sorts it self out? | 22:51 |

| sebsebseb | Guest72040: clean install or upgrade? | 22:51 |
| joaopinto | Shapeshifter, was it a regular livecd desktop install ? | 22:51 |
| fsaintjacques | funkyHat: I'll let the dist-upgrade finish first | 22:51 |
| dhikr | sebsebseb I can tell you about my problem? | 22:51 |

| ritimbaks | hi all. i just installed lucid but my ATI card was not install automaticly. what should i do ? | 22:52 |
| sebsebseb | konner: so do I untill recnetly | 22:52 |
| _pg_ | can ubuntu produce a bsod? | 22:52 |
| sebsebseb | konner: so yeah for example i'll install the old brown look Human theme into 10.04 as well :) | 22:52 |
| sebsebseb | _pg_: no | 22:52 |
| Twitch | @_pg_ | 22:52 |
| anom01y | what is bsod ? | 22:52 |
| Guest72040 | Sebseb clean install. My second, first was a crash. same disk though. | 22:52 |
| sebsebseb | _pg_: the kernel can crash though, but that's rather unlikely | 22:52 |

| joseasdfa | hi | 22:53 |
| sebsebseb | anom01y: Blue Screen Of Death what happens to Windows when something is rather messed up with it indeed | 22:53 |
| anom01y | ahh | 22:53 |
| joseasdfa | what are you dong? | 22:53 |
| mot | A simple import problem is actually stopping the idea of "Ubuntu" from getting across. Help me with this please. | 22:53 |
| sebsebseb | anom01y: then it gives you geeky info, and you basically need to be a Windows fan boy to understand what most of that means | 22:53 |
| sebsebseb | anom01y: and it will probably re boot the computer as well | 22:53 |
| Shapeshifter | joaopinto: yes, regular install, no fancy options or anything. Straight up, no modifications. | 22:53 |
| Twitch | linux newbie here. could someone explain to me in human words what the kernel is, exactly? i know it's sort of like... the "underlying" OS, kinda, but... | 22:53 |
| sebsebseb | anom01y: or at least make it so people can't just use it, untill they have re booted | 22:53 |
| Shapeshifter | Twitch: it gives applications amounts of ram, amounts of cpu time, and gives them all kinds of other access to the hardware. mostly. | 22:54 |

| Twitch | ah. alright. thanks, guys. haha. that makes more sense. | 22:54 |
| solovoy | Twitch, the kernel is the conection between the hardware and the software | 22:54 |
| _pg_ | sebsebseb: me neither | 22:54 |
| sebsebseb | Guest72040: was this an upgrade from 9.10 yes it was? | 22:55 |
| acicula_ | _pg_, leds blink | 22:55 |

| Rave1 | Is there a way to remove or properly disable Pulseaudio and still retain the volume control on the panel W/ 10.04 | 22:57 |
| ritimbaks | sebsebseb: NOPE | 22:57 |
| joaopinto | Rave1, no | 22:57 |
| radar3d | Question: How can I get it to reload the path without rebooting? | 22:57 |
| sebsebseb | ritimbaks: by the way if you install the propritary driver, you may find that the plymouth boot up won't work properly anymore, because how the drivers have issues with it. | 22:57 |
| pat109 | hello | 22:58 |
| acicula_ | Rave1, you can manage volume off alsa directly, but why do you want to remove pulseaudio? | 22:58 |
| delemi | RnfstRuckHrd: email address? | 22:58 |
| sebsebseb | Rave1: pulseaudio isn't that easy to remove, there are tutorials on the web | 22:58 |
| Guest72040 | sebseb could the fact that i have installed more ram than supported affect my performance? | 22:58 |
| pat109 | please tell me, how to change system-ready.ogg | 22:58 |

| sebsebseb | Guest72040: How did you install Ubuntu? | 22:58 |
| Guest72040 | clean install | 22:59 |
| TBotNi1 | All, Sorry to be a little off topic, but really need help as can not find any on this. Hoping someone there has dealt with this before. | 22:59 |
| Rave1 | Sound is fine with Pulse audio removed | 22:59 |
| dhikr | sebsebseb yes but I think that here so I can find a solution with you. it must interest you. I was quiet with 10.04. After two hours of sunvirtualbox I wanted to watch a video on 10.04. and crash! I then restart and then black screen! I just see the menu where it proposes to enter the bios menu. and after black screen. Then I run the live cd of 8.04. I look at my hard drives so good. I restarted normally and then all is well. more black screen. | 22:59 |
| dhikr | any restarts. it speaks to you? | 22:59 |
| sebsebseb | Rave1: yeah pulseaudio issues in Ubuntu since 8.04, when they introduced it. In some distros it's really easy to disable and without problems. | 22:59 |
| acicula_ | TBotNi1, try formulating a question | 22:59 |

| Rave1 | sebsebseb, thnks I will just live without the volume icon | 23:00 |
| TBotNi1 | acicula_: I know I did, did you not see my "?" | 23:00 |
| ritimbaks | sebsebseb: that site you told me is for Karmic Repositories, is it a problem for me using lucid ? | 23:00 |

| sebsebseb | konner: you can customize a theme, and tell it to use the icons | 23:01 |
| funkyHat | Nullifi3d: not really, not like GDM used to be customisable. It was changed by the Gnome project upstream. Completely rewritten due to security issues | 23:01 |
| konner | I got a theme installed but it requires the icon pack i just got | 23:01 |
| acicula_ | p1und3r, can you try sudo service gdm stop && sudo modprobe nvidia && sudo service gdm start | 23:01 |

| anom01y | mot: can't help sorry | 23:02 |
| modalon | Rave1: Are you convinced probs coming frm pulseaudio? | 23:02 |
| Twitch | and, obviously, having to split your RAM and CPU a bit | 23:02 |
| funkyHat | Nullifi3d: I don't think so | 23:03 |

| mot | TBotNi1 Check your private chat....I have a question on import/export. | 23:04 |

| modalon | Do you think it may be depend on the kernel? | 23:05 |
| p1und3r | acicula_ yeah im in X now | 23:05 |
| acicula_ | p1und3r, whats the error? | 23:05 |

| ddfire | hi | 23:06 |

| AcolyteVersion1 | Hate to pester the community for help, but this is driving me crazy. I should be able to mount a CIFS / SAMBA Windows share via computer name, right? | 23:06 |
| modalon | Can you fix it with an older kernel? | 23:06 |
| sebsebseb | Twitch: anyway Ubuntu inside Windows, for only testing, that's okish, but in the long run NO! | 23:06 |
| AntiProxy | i seem to be having a problem with Evolution mail client since i upgraded to 10.04 last night.. it randomly segfaults by itself, even when it's in the background doing nothing.. is it a known issue? any known workarounds yet? | 23:06 |
| acicula_ | p1und3r, but like now after modprobing nvidia it does not allow you to start x? | 23:06 |
| ddfire | how i set kdm as a login manager? thanks | 23:06 |

| p1und3r | acicula_ yeah | 23:06 |
| TBotNi1 | Got 2 version of VTiger one on CentOS the other on Ubuntu. Using the U-Box for all the hammering, but think my admin set up the CentOS box for "live" | 23:06 |
| sebsebseb | Twitch: also if you were to run Windows inside Ubuntu, you would actsauly get a major security advantage | 23:06 |
| radar3d | Question: How can I get it to reload the path without rebooting? | 23:07 |
| sebsebseb | ddfire: simple | 23:07 |
| acicula_ | p1und3r, hmm weird | 23:07 |
| sebsebseb | ddfire: install kdm, then it should ask which one to use, and do KDM | 23:07 |
| AcolyteVersion1 | I can mount fine via IP address, but have no luck at all mounting via computer name / host name. An nmblookup resolves the hostnames for me, but when applying to a mount command, I get a "cannot resolve hostname" error | 23:07 |
| p1und3r | acicula_ yeah very | 23:07 |
| Twitch | the biggest reason I don't primarily dual-boot is because I have dial-up. to get everything on ubuntu just the way i want it with such a horrible connection would be very agonizing | 23:07 |

| acicula_ | p1und3r, then i dont know what to try, i havent tinkered with nvidia binary drivers for awhile | 23:07 |
| ddfire | sebsebseb, i installed xubuntu package over kubuntu, and now i havent the shutdown button on kde | 23:07 |
| sebsebseb | ddfire: this is one way to do it, altough I expect there is another. remove/purge gdm, and it will probably use KDM as default, or remove both, and then install kdm | 23:07 |
| p1und3r | acicula_ i appreciate you trying man i do :D | 23:07 |
| modalon | p1und3r: try an older rkernel | 23:08 |
| sebsebseb | ddfire: don't know about that issue, you could try #kubuntu or maybe #xubuntu or well both, though | 23:08 |
| p1und3r | modalon if i boot in to 9.10 it will work :| | 23:08 |

| modalon | yes of course. My soundcard also stopped after the newest kernel :-) | 23:09 |

| funkyHat | shane2peru: add your google calendar as a calendar to evolution | 23:11 |
| shane2peru | funkyHat, did that, and when I try to copy stuff over, it compain | 23:12 |
| adi1 | the only thing i can do after that black screen is forced shutdown | 23:12 |

| mfox | sebsebseb: just need installing new kernel, like 2.6.33 | 23:26 |
| joaopinto | Kitsune, I am not aware of a remote desktop with 3D capabilities, the network link would just be too slow compared to a local graphics card | 23:26 |

| _SKiTZO | Kitsune: well 3d over network will suck more than intel integrated.. | 23:27 |
| sebsebseb | mfox: I assume you did a default 9.04 install with Ext3? | 23:28 |
| joaopinto | Kitsune, we are not talking about complications, we are talking about something which is not doable from a technical perspective | 23:28 |

| kip | Feasibility: Take a look at your power management settings | 23:29 |
| joaopinto | Kitsune, the "control" part that you want means accessing a remote graphical card and get it's capabilities over a network cable, which is. 1000000x slower than the graphical card bus | 23:29 |

| delemi | terminal | 23:30 |
| TheMozart | delemi: thanks for your help | 23:31 |
| delemi | is it downloading?? | 23:31 |
| sebsebseb | mfox: I mean since the kernel and such, optional Ext4 support in 9.04 isn't perfectly stable, so some people got issues, however worked great for me, on this computer, but also the other one. | 23:31 |
| XuMuK | !plymouth | 23:31 |
| sebsebseb | mfox: then when they released 9.10 with Ext4 I thought great, so boot up wil be really fast? | 23:31 |
| kip | seb: Ext4 works fine on my box under 10.4 | 23:31 |
| delemi | themozart: is it downloading? | 23:31 |
| sebsebseb | mfox: I tested with Ext3 and Ext4 and didn't seem to make a difference at all, just the automatic disk checking after 23 or so boots, just like optioanly with 9.04, is faster | 23:32 |
| TheMozart | delemi: yes | 23:32 |
| delemi | themozart: there is more to the install you should know | 23:32 |
| sebsebseb | kip: not sure if it's working ok yet on the other computer after upgading from 9.10, I guess it is though | 23:32 |

| Cammy_ | Hi. My themes won't stick. Whenever I reboot, I get a basic X theme and not the one I've chosen. Any tips? | 23:33 |
| sebsebseb | mfox: if you decide to upgrade to 10.04 well ok sure, so the two features you won't just get, but nevermind. Also 9.04 to 9.10 upgrade might go wrong on you. | 23:33 |
| joaopinto | Cammy_, you mean your gnome theme ? | 23:33 |
| Cammy_ | Yep! | 23:33 |
| sebsebseb | kip: ah yes 8.10 a great release, well ok ethernet woudn't just work on the other computer, but same thing for XP on there where it needs a driver. | 23:34 |
| joaopinto | Cammy_, if you re-login (without rebooting) does it show up ? | 23:34 |
| Theravadan | which package provides lh_config? | 23:34 |

| |Quartz| | Hello. If someelse has use rubyripper and can't use it on lucid (see: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1462806), my solution is to add the repertories of karmic, and create the file /etc/apt/preferences containing this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/427272/ .

| GeekSquid | Narya: amarok uses the xine engine, where as audacious uses gstreamer... install xine libs | 23:58 |
| kevr | not to crack keys. | 23:58 |
| sebsebseb | !controls | bobby | 23:58 |
| ubottu | bobby: 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 | 23:58 |
| Narya | GeekSquid: thanks! | 23:58 |
| oly562 | Scunizi: yah i want to use kismet | 23:58 |
| Scunizi | Tapout: did you upgrade from 9.10 and was that upgraded from 9.04 etc? trying to find out ifyou have grub2 or 1 installed. | 23:58 |
| triptych | sereph ------ thanks | 23:58 |
| Telvana | sebsebseb: Believe it or not the new theme is kinda growing on me ... | 23:58 |
| oly562 | i used to use it for other things on freebsd | 23:58 |
| aliendude3500 | When trying to start audio, Osmos displays "bt_audio_service_open: connect() failed: Connection refused (111)" in my terminal, what can I do to fix this? | 23:58 |
| sebsebseb | bobby: loads of people complained when they moved the icons to the left, there's a famous bug thread on launchpad, what's worse in an odd order. They were also going to do it for all themes which is even worse, but then it was decided only for the two new Canoncial themes. | 23:58 |
| bobby | sebsebseb: i'm just saying after going with the right for so long they shouldn't just be moved to the left by defaykt | 23:58 |
| Scunizi | oly562: having the kde libs won't hurt your system | 23:58 |
| bobby | default | 23:58 |
| oly562 | Scunizi: no, not kuberios | 23:58 |
| sebsebseb | bobby: indeed at that | 23:58 |
| mfox | kevr: but i thought he said sniffer for wireless ! | 23:58 |
| Narya | Geeksquid: where could I find those? just google and go from there? | 23:58 |
| oly562 | swscanner | 23:58 |
| kevr | mfox... what ur talking about is not sniffing | 23:59 |
| sebsebseb | bobby: unless they have a proper reason to, and no that Shuttleworth wants to do some Gnome editing in 10.10 where the buttons should be, is not a good enough reason to do it already in 10.04 | 23:59 |
| kevr | it's challenging and cracking | 23:59 |
| Telvana | I think there was a term command you could use to force the buttons back onto the right again. | 23:59 |
| mfox | kevr: so he/she could use wireshark anyway | 23:59 |
| ExceptionIO | bobby: You can customize to what you like, this is linux! | 23:59 |
| GeekSquid | Narya: Synaptic Package Manager in System > Admin | 23:59 |
| Loshki | I notice that I have daemons named jfsIO, jfsCommit and jfsSync running. Nothing in init.d seems to start them. Anyone know what they are and where they came from? | 23:59 |

| kevr | thank mfox for that | 23:59 |
| FloodBot4 | kevr: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 23:59 |
| oly562 | Scunizi: i dont like having extra fat | 23:59 |
| bobby | sebsebseb: so what are you saying? are they goign back to the right? | 23:59 |
| mfox | kevr: your welcome | 23:59 |
| bobby | it doesn't feel like gnome / ubuntu any more | 23:59 |
| oly562 | Scunizi: and actually it might | 23:59 |
