| cfeazell_ | Hi, I have a Toshiba Satellite L505D-GS6000 and just updated from 9.10 to 10.4. When I try to boot, I get ACPI errors. Any suggestions? | 00:00 |
| eye-zak | Henryacores: did you try running update-grub ? | 00:00 |
| Skaperen | wildbat: I'm looking for something that maps packages for 9.10 that have changed names for 10.04 (or repackaged under another name or whatever) | 00:01 |

| thegreyspot | acerimmer unless there is some kind of commmand i dont know baout for grub that i can point at the drive | 00:07 |
| onetinsoldier | matteo1990: don't know what error. but i'd say 300 mb's is big enough for a /boot partition. i have one kernel installed. my /boot has about 90 mb's used | 00:07 |
| thegreyspot | acerimmer is there nothing like boot hd0,6 | 00:07 |
| fax | I'm just asking because I really awnt to do the right thing because I don't expect it to work.. | 00:07 |
| icepeda | mokkan: are you able to surf by desktops?, I mean, is your windows manager working? | 00:07 |
| wildbat | matteo1990, when you resizing there is a option to check by default "rund to cyliners" | 00:07 |

| thegreyspot | acerimmer win7 32bit | 00:10 |
| amabo | jsec: http://ppa.launchpad.net/matt/mactel-support/ubuntu/dists/lucid/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz but instead of "/matt/mactel-support/" it should be "/~mactel-support" | 00:10 |
| icepeda | mokkan, sorry, it is compiz | 00:11 |

| amabo | jsec: it just got overwritten with "/~/mactel-support" | 00:11 |
| manwith | does anyone know if there is an ubuntu server version that will work with i686 hardware? | 00:11 |

| Skaperen | cr33p: not at the moment ... still trying to re-install | 00:11 |
| thegreyspot | acerimmer its ok to use with wubi? | 00:11 |
| DasEi2 | manwith: more details ? | 00:11 |
| LinuxPhreak | Last time I checked ubuntu server worked on me P3 | 00:11 |
| mokkan | icepeda, did they remove compiz from the default install? because i definitely remember having this stuff in 9.10 | 00:11 |
| matteo1990 | wildbat, I did all while the system on an the error is gone :D Thx alot, | 00:11 |
| cr33p | Skaperen: ok | 00:11 |

| dennda | Can I change my global copy/paste shortcuts? | 00:12 |
| jsec | amabo, i mean what package are you trying to download? that link doesn't seem to download anything useful. | 00:12 |
| acerimmer | thegreyspot: actally, I'm not sure. Understand, WUBI is not the optimal situation. Strongly urge you to either live CD or bite the bullet and dual-boot. | 00:12 |
| Skaperen | cr33p: is it a TCP level connection, or a wireless connection, or an "ethernet need to get working" issue? | 00:12 |
| Wavesonics | i just upgraded to 10.04 but dont have the new ambiance or radiance themes, how can i get them? | 00:12 |

| cr33p | Skaperen: wireless connection | 00:12 |

| FoxWolf | Hi all, I want a program to be able to record my desktop + the sounds that come out of my 'speakers' (record what I hear), any suggestions.... i have recordMyDesktop but it records from my mic, Thanks | 00:12 |
| thegreyspot | acerimmer i understand, so can i just get into windows and remove wubi? i have no problems installing it by partition i was just feelling lazy | 00:12 |
| wildbat | matteo1990, lol it isn't system drive then ;p | 00:13 |
| Ben_G_9C9 | Brian BrushWood is live on some AM station in Iowa right now! http://tinyurl.com/a6s8cx | 00:13 |

| DasEi2 | FoxWolf: have a look at audacious | 00:13 |
| jsec | amabo, yes. i downloaded the Packages.gz file, but there was nothing in there. | 00:13 |
| Skaperen | cr33p: same old password and/or key as worked in previous version (what version?) and does not work now in 10.04 ? | 00:13 |
| wildbat | matteo1990, grats~ thpu ^^ | 00:13 |
| _blackwater_ | hey - which dev package provides GLIB, explicitly glib-config | 00:13 |
| FoxWolf | DasEi2, thanks i will do | 00:13 |
| amabo | jsec: and it downloads a <fdopen> file that I'm guessing downloads other updates | 00:13 |
| shaullx | when i copy let's say from the browser some text, close the browser and then try to past it somewhere it's gone why? | 00:13 |
| nph0rm | tnbrewer thank wildbat | 00:13 |
| acerimmer | thegreyspot: yeah, just go into windows and delete wubi. | 00:13 |
| amabo | jsec: if you open the <fdopen> file it has addresses for other updates | 00:13 |
| Ragnar | hey, after installing ubuntu 10.04, and the computer is rebooting, I get this error: error: out of disk. | grub rescue> | 00:13 |
| matteo1990 | wildbat, yes, it is but i suppose that all the /boot content is copied in Ram | 00:13 |
| Ragnar | can anyone tell me whats up with that? | 00:13 |
| Skaperen | Ragnar: some partition is too small or too many packages added | 00:14 |
| acerimmer | thegreyspot: it might not b ecalled wubi. Check your Windows Add/Delete programs for buntu. | 00:14 |
| jsec | amabo, ok so what are you trying to do exactly? | 00:14 |
| thegreyspot | acerimmer yes i know but i cant boot in to windows | 00:14 |
| DasEi2 | Ragnar: sth went wrong with your grub install, you upgraded from karmic ? | 00:14 |
| amabo | jsec: either get the update itself or fix update manager | 00:14 |
| cr33p | Skaperen: well, i didn't use any ubuntu version before, but the wpa2 key (if you mean that) is correct and works | 00:14 |
| Ben_G_9C9 | Ragnar: What version of U 10.04? | 00:14 |
| acerimmer | thegreyspot: OK, different issue. wait 1 | 00:14 |
| Ragnar | Skaperen: its a 300gigabyte disk, and I said "Use entire disk", also, I've tried reinstalling four-five times. | 00:14 |
| jsec | after you add the ppa and run an apt-update, then those packages listed in the fdopen will be available to apt/synaptic | 00:14 |
| Ragnar | DasEi2: No, new installation | 00:14 |
| Skaperen | cr33p: works where or in what? | 00:14 |
| thegreyspot | acerimmer: hokay! | 00:14 |
| Ragnar | Ben_G_9C9: the one that got released on the 28. april | 00:15 |
| Skaperen | Ragnar: did you check the option to reformat? | 00:15 |
| cr33p | Skaperen: works on windows and ubuntu | 00:15 |
| thegreyspot | acerimmer: i just did super grub, so if you give me the ok i will try it | 00:15 |
| Skaperen | cr33p: but now does not work where? | 00:15 |
| FoxWolf | DasEi2, i want to record the video (desktop) too | 00:15 |
| onetinsoldier | what app do most folks in here use to control your cpu frequency/speedstepping? | 00:15 |
| wildbat | matteo1990, only / you can't unmount ^^ ~ that's system ^^ | 00:15 |
| DasEi2 | Ragnar: so no space issue then, repair grub , either with super grub disk (version greater 1) or from a live cd | 00:15 |
| matteo1990 | wildbat, :) | 00:15 |
| DasEi2 | FoxWolf: ic, audac.. is audio, just | 00:16 |
| Kokito | hello | 00:16 |
| cr33p | Skaperen: im not sure if i got what you mean. you still mean the wpa2 key? | 00:16 |
| acerimmer | thegreyspot: unsure about supergrub/wubi configuration. Nothing you do should effect win7 but don't know how stable the fix could be. | 00:16 |
| virtuald | anyone know of a program where i can make todo lists and set priorities? | 00:16 |
| shaullx | when i copy text from somewhere and close it, its gone, why, how can i change it | 00:16 |
| shaullx | ? | 00:16 |
| FoxWolf | DasEi2, does it record the desktop sounds? maybe I could run them at the same time i dunno | 00:16 |
| DasEi2 | Ragnar: you know super grub disk ? | 00:16 |
| Ragnar | DasEi2: Im on the live cd now, any recommendations | 00:16 |
| FoxWolf | so audacious for sound | 00:16 |

| FoxWolf | and recordmydesktop for video | 00:16 |
| Skaperen | cr33p: was the issue you cannot get connected? so in some system something on wireless does not work (key is normally suspect) but on another system it works OK | 00:17 |
| thegreyspot | acerimmer i think i will try it, once i get into windows then remove wubi it should put mbr back into action | 00:17 |

| Skaperen | cr33p: and what speeds are you getting as a percentage of what you used to get? | 00:19 |
| DasEi2 | Ragnar: also check by sudo fdisk -l if all your partitons are there, in the later mount the fs an verify /boot and it's contents are there;; errm I assume you checked the installer before ?? | 00:19 |
| wildbat | _dreamy, that what grub menu are for ~ | 00:19 |
| fax | where are the instructions for mac on how to burn a boot CD? (I give up on USB) | 00:19 |
| fax | i searched on the help.ubuntu page but ther is 0 results.. | 00:19 |
| fax | oh it is loaded now | 00:19 |
| cr33p | Skaperen: ~20% | 00:20 |
| Skaperen | cr33p: or is it an issue of slow make TCP connections (like web site visits) but bandwidth is good once connected ? | 00:20 |
| wildbat | _dreamy, you can only have one BIOS one MBR ~ but bootloader can call on whcih parition to boot | 00:20 |
| _dreamy | wildbat: the commnd line at the start up? | 00:20 |

| LinuxPhreak | Note to people in channel. try to keep discussion in the channel and try not to pm people | 00:20 |
| cr33p | Skaperen: no, the overall speed is bad. when i want to download something through synaptic its as bad as when i want to download something through firefox or wget | 00:21 |
| Swian | my video driver went wild, removed nvidia driver and now background is 3/4 size and all windows get cut off, any ideas? | 00:21 |
| irv_ | how do i change the primary monitor? | 00:21 |
| Skaperen | cr33p: so like downloading a big ISO ... it connects reasonably quickly, but just takes FOREVER to d/l it | 00:22 |
| _dreamy | wildbat: well.. actualy id like to have Grub installed on sda7, its currently on sda1 .. so , i want to install the OS on sda1..thats why id like grub to work on sda7 | 00:22 |
| wildbat | _dreamy, idk what commandline you got but if you got "grub >" ~ you don't have grub.cfg file ~ so you can't boot ~ w/o manually typing the commands to boot | 00:22 |
| cr33p | Skaperen: correct | 00:22 |
| flashbck_ | is there a theme function for taxonomy terms? I've looked all over and can't find anything | 00:22 |
| histo | ;lkj | 00:22 |
| Ragnar | DasEi2: yeah, it didnt fix anything though | 00:22 |
| Swian | my video driver went wild, removed nvidia driver and now background is 3/4 size and all windows get cut off, any ideas? | 00:23 |
| Wavesonics | what is the package name for the new 10.04 ubuntu themes? | 00:23 |
| cr33p | Skaperen: i had my wifi encryption first set on wep, then changed it to wpa2 and then i had for about 10 minutes download speeds of 420kb/s, but then it slowed down again | 00:23 |
| Skaperen | cr33p: 1: are you the admin of your wireless access point? ... 2: are there other users of the same A/P? ... 3: are there nearby wireless users with their own A/P (like other apartments in an apartment building)? | 00:23 |
| loopidity | anyone been using Western Digital Passport under ubuntu? it does not work for me | 00:23 |
| _dreamy | wildbat: unless its in a bios.. or something | 00:23 |
| Ragnar | but | 00:23 |
| Ragnar | when I type ls | 00:23 |
| cr33p | Skaperen: nope. only me and my router | 00:23 |
| nudist34 | 34 | 00:23 |
| Ragnar | in the grub rescue> command prompt | 00:23 |
| loopidity | it just opens up as if it were a cd and has abunch of exe in it | 00:23 |
| Ragnar | I get two hds | 00:23 |
| DasEi2 | Ragnar: you will have to follow the tut given in above link and re-install grub2 | 00:23 |
| graft | so i'm on lucid now, right, and i've been noticing when i alt-tab to a new window, the focus often stays in the window the mouse is over anyway... how do i avoid this? | 00:23 |
| Ragnar | hd0 and hd0,1 | 00:23 |
| cr33p | Skaperen: so im the only one | 00:23 |
| Ragnar | DasEi2: I just did. | 00:23 |
| Skaperen | cr33p: so the nearest other person with his own wireless and his own A/P is a kilometer away? | 00:23 |
| JoshDreamland | LinuxPhreak: The disk has the correct hash as well. I'm not sure why the integrity check causes the OS to try to boot, nor why the OS fails to boot. | 00:24 |
| wildbat | _dreamy, for a partition too boot ~ it have to be marked as "boot" ~ in the MBR or partition table , you can do that in gparted with flag on right click. | 00:24 |
| onetinsoldier | Swian: do you currently have a /etc/X11/xorg.conf file? if so, try starting up X without it and see what happens. only move/rename it. i recommend you don't permanently delete it. | 00:24 |
| cr33p | Skaperen: i would say more than a kilometer^^ | 00:24 |
| DasEi2 | Ragnar: in that short time ?? was the partiton found correcly ? | 00:24 |
| _dreamy | wildbat: ok | 00:24 |
| Ragnar | DasEi2: yes | 00:24 |

| mokkan | icepeda, thank you for your help, all is well again | 00:24 |
| MrNibbles | whats the best bittorrent client around, i need a webUi, Categories with folders, RSS downloading | 00:24 |
| MrNibbles | im just about to get qBitTorrent | 00:25 |
| onetinsoldier | Wavesonics: not sure. do you know a filename for one of the theme files? | 00:25 |
| LinuxPhreak | JoshDreamland: just a wild idea you may want to try sbm | 00:25 |
| thegreyspot | acerimmer: wasnt able to boot from super grub disk so i will try fixmbr | 00:25 |
| poutine | bittorrent is a horrible protocol | 00:25 |
| Skaperen | cr33p: quite often the choice of channel makes big differences in speed | 00:25 |
| poutine | use usenet | 00:25 |
| Swian | ok onetinsoldier I'll try that | 00:25 |
| EntityReborn | Hey | 00:25 |
| icepeda | graft: go to System > preferences > windows and uncheck the Select windows when the mouse moves over | 00:25 |

| blurry-lynx | hello folks | 00:25 |
| icepeda | mokkan: you are welcome :) | 00:25 |
| blurry-lynx | having a little problem after updating my ubuntu 10.4 installation | 00:25 |
| cr33p | Skaperen: hm, i dont think that the electronic here could affect the speeds as in windows 7 i got fullspeed | 00:25 |
| onetinsoldier | Swian: roger. don't know if that'll help, but you're welcome to try it. good luck | 00:25 |
| EntityReborn | One of my cpus on my dual core amd laptop is pegged at 100%, any idea? | 00:25 |
| EntityReborn | Actually, wait | 00:26 |
| JoshDreamland | LinuxPhreak: What is that? | 00:26 |
| graft | icepeda: i want focus-follows-mouse, but not focus-strictly-under-mouse, but that policy seems to have become scattered over a bunch of different options now, and i don't know how to create it | 00:26 |
| amabo | anyone here on a macbook pro on lucid? how do i go about right clicking with the trackpad? | 00:26 |
| Skaperen | cr33p: OK ... and did you switch back to wep to verify | 00:26 |
| LinuxPhreak | JoshDreamland: Smart Boot Manager | 00:26 |
| Swian | onetinesoldier no xorg.conf | 00:26 |
| DasEi2 | EntityReborn: check in top / htop what causes it | 00:26 |
| _dreamy | wildbat: ok.. grub is on a MBR ? | 00:26 |
| Swian | but xorg.conf-backup | 00:26 |
| Wavesonics | onetinsoldier, Ambiance and something else | 00:26 |
| cr33p | Skaperen: nope. i could do it right now | 00:26 |
| blurry-lynx | when trying to login, I can only ghet a terminal with this error message: "ubuntu failed to acquire org.gnome.displaymanager" | 00:26 |
| EntityReborn | Weird.... | 00:26 |
| Swian | and xorg.conf-failsage | 00:26 |
| LinuxPhreak | JoshDreamland: are you using ubuntu-desktop or alternative | 00:26 |
| acer-d250 | how can is see grub 2 when the system booots | 00:26 |
| erkan^ | !gimp | 00:26 |
| ubottu | gimp is an advanced image manipulation application for Ubuntu. See http://www.gimp.org for tutorials and more information. | 00:26 |
| EntityReborn | "backend" was using it | 00:26 |
| Wavesonics | onetinsoldier, i did a upgrade and didnt get the new themes :/ | 00:26 |
| _dreamy | wildbat: so its not on sda7 ? | 00:26 |
| EntityReborn | whatever "backend" is | 00:26 |
| blurry-lynx | anyone has any clue what I can do to fix this? | 00:27 |
| Skaperen | cr33p: it would be a good baseline test to see ... otherwise some ping runs to look for lag patterns | 00:27 |
| onetinsoldier | Wavesonics: there are quite a few theme packages in Ubuntu... but it might be --> gnome-themes | 00:27 |
| wildbat | _dreamy, if you install grub on MBR ~ it will find the /boot in 1234567.... order ~ | 00:27 |
| cr33p | Skaperen: ok, im changing back to wep | 00:27 |
| PC__ | wllo | 00:27 |
| icepeda | MrNibbles: I recommend transmission ;) | 00:28 |
| Skaperen | cr33p: I will be AFK for about 5min | 00:28 |
| _dreamy | wildbat: ok.. i dunno whats mbr , i wonder if i installed it there | 00:28 |
| onetinsoldier | Wavesonics: i did an apt-cache search ambiance.. it came back with 'light-themes' | 00:28 |
| siya | Any idea why starting an app via icon yields Details: "Failed to change to directory '$HOME' (No such file or directory)" starting the app from terminal works fine. "java -jar /home/djerk/SIPVIEWER/sipviewer.jar" | 00:29 |
| jrib | siya: where are you getting the error? What command are you using for the icon? | 00:29 |
| wildbat | _dreamy, you don't have to~ you can always choose to boot different OS in grub menu right?~ is that what you want? | 00:30 |
| === Administrador is now known as somebody987 | ||
| DasEi2 | ragnar: so you chrooted in and reinstalled grub, still throwing erros, what the exact message ? | 00:30 |
| siya | same command | 00:30 |
| JoshDreamland | LinuxPhreak: Ubuntu-desktop-10-4-i386, or something | 00:30 |
| JoshDreamland | is that what you mean? | 00:30 |
| Swian | anyone else have any idea? My bottom panel is still in the correct place and my dock is, but desktop is cutoff 3/4 and all windows get cut there | 00:30 |
| siya | jrib, exact same command as from terminal | 00:31 |
| LinuxPhreak | I don't know what type of hardware you have but I always prefer the alternate installer I have more flexibilty with it | 00:31 |
| jrib | siya: which is? | 00:31 |
| onetinsoldier | siya: not sure. what do you get back from the following command? echo $HOME | 00:31 |
| siya | "java -jar /home/djerk/SIPVIEWER/sipviewer.jar" | 00:31 |
| siya | onetinsoldier, in terminal? | 00:31 |
| onetinsoldier | yes | 00:31 |
| jrib | siya: and my first question? | 00:31 |
| * Skaperen is back | 00:31 | |
| _dreamy | wildbat: yes, right now i can boot 2 OS's .. but the PArtiion manager Of the OS i intend to Install .. erases the sda7 partition.. im afraid i wont be able to boot none, it the instalation goes wrong .. ... hard to explain :) | 00:32 |
| onetinsoldier | siya: yes, in term | 00:32 |
| siya | onetinsoldier, my home folder | 00:32 |
| onetinsoldier | siya: roger | 00:32 |
| DasEi2 | ragnar: what is the exact grub-error message ? | 00:32 |
| siya | jrib it was created by the installer for the app | 00:32 |
| Skaperen | LinuxPhreak: the alternate installer does not use casper? | 00:32 |
| edbian | _dreamy, Don't be too afraid. You can always use a live CD | 00:32 |
| jrib | siya: where are you getting the error? | 00:32 |
| siya | in gnome | 00:33 |
| siya | popup | 00:33 |
| _dreamy | the dvd is not so good edbian :S | 00:33 |
| jrib | siya: what's the title of the window? | 00:33 |
| _dreamy | the drive | 00:33 |
| UbuntuJeff | does anyone know how to get adobe air to work in openbox? | 00:33 |
| siya | jrib, "there was an error launching the application" | 00:33 |
| LinuxPhreak | Skaperen: why is that important? It still installs Ubuntu? does he need casper for some reason? | 00:34 |
| jrib | siya: try creating a short script with the command in it and then call the script instead | 00:34 |
| JoshDreamland | ubuntu: Why do you refuse to work for me? | 00:34 |
| siya | jrib, I imaging that will work fine. Just baffled why this icon doesn't work | 00:34 |
| siya | bbiab, wife's calling | 00:34 |
| LinuxPhreak | Skaperen: I didn't mean to sound rude if it cae off that way I'm sorry | 00:34 |
| JoshDreamland | ubuntu: have I not offered you enough? | 00:34 |
| jrib | siya: can you verify? | 00:34 |
| siya | jrib, will do in a min | 00:35 |
| Skaperen | LinuxPhreak: no ... the question was for my own curiosity ... you see I make use of casper's ability to start up on a flash drive w/o using a FAT filesystem ... to make my own flash drive images of Ubuntu | 00:35 |
| Skaperen | LinuxPhreak: n/p ... I understand I interjected a strange off the wall question :) | 00:35 |
| cr33p | Skaperen: so i changed back to wep - same slow speeds, then changed back to wpa2 - same slow speeds | 00:36 |
| LinuxPhreak | I'm not sure if it uses casper I'll check right now if you don't know | 00:36 |
| wildbat | _dreamy,hmmm kinda confusing, but if you intend to keep current boot grub, on your up coming installation ~ dn't have its grub write in MBR , ie /dev/sda, have it write on its' own partition | 00:36 |
| Swian | anyone else have any idea? My bottom panel is still in the correct place and my dock is, but desktop is cutoff 3/4 and all windows get cut there | 00:36 |
| amabo | anyone here on a macbook pro on lucid? how do i go about right clicking with the trackpad? | 00:36 |
| LinuxPhreak | It doesn't appear to | 00:36 |
| jrib | amabo: use two fingers | 00:36 |
| Swian | amabo option click | 00:36 |
| Skaperen | cr33p: and boot windows and it's fast? ... something odd is set in your wireless or the newer driver is goofy ... more tests are needed (like boot an older live CD) | 00:36 |
| Theravadan | Skaperen, i need to make a usb disk for support people to use on machines in the field, do you know of a decent distro that is customizable and can do this? figurd you might have ideas on that. | 00:36 |
| JoshDreamland | hi, is there a way to blacklist a driver from the menu screen of a liveCD? | 00:37 |
| Vigo | Skaperen: Maybe this:> http://www.pendrivelinux.com/ | 00:37 |
| _dreamy | wildbat: ok | 00:37 |
| Swian | amobo or control click, I forget | 00:37 |

| Skaperen | Theravadan: use any distro you like AFAIC ... I just have a tool that morphs an Ubuntu ISO (that has casper) into an Ubuntu IMG that can be directly dd'd to a hard drive or flash drive ... and it boots the same live or installer system (even the memtest) | 00:38 |
| Vigo | Theravadan: It is linked from Ubuntu Official | 00:38 |
| jrib | amabo: try all the modifier keys and click already? (fn, alt, apple, shift) | 00:38 |
| Skaperen | Theravadan: and that IMG can still be used as an ISO on a DVD burner | 00:38 |
| t1000_ | how can I see if my lucid is installed with dm-crypt? | 00:38 |

| amabo | jrib: none of them work | 00:39 |
| histo | Theravadan: you can install ubuntu on to a usb disk | 00:39 |
| Ragnar | Im thinking the installation might me corrupt or something | 00:39 |

| thegreyspot | acerimmer thanks for your help | 00:39 |
| cr33p | Skaperen: and i also tried that under ubuntu 9.10, same issue - slow speed | 00:39 |
| histo | Theravadan: run it live off usb boot. Or if you are looking to install an image of a hard drive or ghost type tools then you want clonezilla | 00:39 |
| Theravadan | histo, we have like 200 keyboardless machines and i'd like a light weight <2gb distro, and i'll customize it to have a 'ssh tunnel' icon then can press via the touchscreen. | 00:39 |
| Vigo | Ragnar: Try the LiveCD | 00:39 |
| wildbat | _dreamy, just come back to your current OS and d update-grub~ | 00:40 |
| histo | Theravadan: yeah you can do that with ubuntu. | 00:40 |
| wildbat | _dreamy, i think that will be safer ` | 00:40 |
| histo | Theravadan: what do you mean by ssh tunnel though? what do you want them to use the tunnel for? | 00:40 |
| _dreamy | wildbat: i whoudnt mind if it did.. at that time the installtion whould be finished.. and id know i whoudnt loose system.. (kinda confusing) | 00:40 |
| Theravadan | histo, well i want them to click on something that will create an ssh tunnel so i can get access to their system | 00:40 |
| epg | any netbook users here ? | 00:40 |
| newmansan | i was googling around for hte problem, and I think it has something to do with the DVD drive being some sort of non standard SATA interface or something. Does anyone have any idea? | 00:40 |
| histo | Theravadan: there are tons of distros that would fill your needs though. | 00:40 |
| Ragnar | Vigo: mhm, yeah, it works, but the installing part fails. | 00:41 |
| Theravadan | histo, true | 00:41 |
| histo | Theravadan: ahh what about reverse connecting with vnc | 00:41 |
| Skaperen | Vigo: does that pendrivelinux change the image from ISO format to FAT format? | 00:41 |
| icepeda | done, I remembered it :) | 00:41 |
| histo | Theravadan: they wouldn't have to forward any ports just you would on your end. then you can support the machine like you were sitting at the desktop | 00:41 |
| Theravadan | histo, it does that too, sets up an ssh tunnel for ssh (port 22) and vnc(5900) | 00:41 |
| histo | Theravadan: well you normally would just forward vnc over ssh | 00:41 |
| nph0rm | how can i check cd/dvd integrity? where is the checksum? | 00:41 |

| nph0rm | for the ubuntu server | 00:42 |
| JoshDreamland | hi, is there a way to blacklist a driver from the menu screen of a liveCD? | 00:42 |

| Vigo | Ragnar: I would have to look up a lot more data to help, if LiveCD runs, kinda means the hardware is okee dokee, is it a Dual Boot install? | 00:42 |
| histo | Theravadan: yeah can be done with ubuntu but I wouldn't really consider ubuntu light weight although lucid is really fast off usb | 00:42 |
| Theravadan | histo, http://www.damnsmalllinux.org/ looks good | 00:43 |
| Vigo | Skaperen: It can, that depends on the setup of the USB/Pendrive dongle. | 00:43 |

| DasEi2 | t1000_: so not installed | 00:43 |
| t1000_ | weird.... | 00:43 |
| Skaperen | Vigo: what my script does is takes an ISO image and makes an IMG/ISO hybrid image ... the end result is still an image file that can be downloaded or torrented ... but it works as either an ISO or a hard drive image, whichever way you try to use it (so you only need one image file to do things either way) | 00:43 |
| Vigo | Bigbucks: Ubuntu Store, is a link from Ubuntu.com | 00:44 |

| Agrajag- | i have a 2nd monitor (dvi) that since updating to 10.04, seems to change brightness depending on what's displayed on the screen. even when scrolling through a webpage in google chrome the brightness changes. if i use "display" to display a large image, it also goes very bright. how do i stop this? | 00:45 |
| newmansan | pvt apg | 00:45 |

| senjin | is there a way to use ssh to tunnel into a SOCKS proxy and forward traffic through the ssh connection to the proxy? | 00:47 |
| Skaperen | Vigo: for a persistent Linux ... I just installed to that device ... though actually I did it on an SDHC card | 00:47 |
| DasEi2 | newmansan: just ask here.. does sudo fdiskk -l find it ? | 00:47 |
| newmansan | nope | 00:48 |
| DasEi2 | newmansan: sudo fdisk -l find it ? * | 00:48 |
| newmansan | it doesn't show up when i do that | 00:48 |
| Cyclist2 | jrib: you were right! simply by running that short script ensures that aMule is restarted almost immediately; I would like to learn some day why it will NOT work from inside a cron job. though...; anyway: it works now [by running that script and NOT from the crontab file] and that was all I wanted; thank you, very much! | 00:48 |
| Theravadan | senjin, underage porn? | 00:48 |
| Vigo | Skaperen: That is the keyword, I am still playing with mixing up a Lubuntu USB Live that can also store data. | 00:49 |
| senjin | Theravadan: heh, nope, trying to connect to company vpn with only 1 application instead of the whole system going through it | 00:49 |
| jrib | Cyclist2: it's just a while loop. Each iteration, amule runs (and then the loop stops there waiting for amule to finish). If amule crashes/closes somehow, the loop continues and runs another instance of amule | 00:49 |
| Skaperen | Vigo: pendrivelinux requires windows to do its thing? seems so from that page ... so many "in windows" or "with windows" mentions | 00:49 |
| Theravadan | senjin, http://www.revsys.com/writings/quicktips/ssh-tunnel.html should help | 00:49 |
| DasEi2 | newmansan: sudo apt-get install hwinfo | 00:49 |
| jrib | Cyclist2: your cronjob probably didn't work because amule is an X app | 00:49 |
| DasEi2 | newmansan: sudo hwinfo | grep rom | 00:49 |
| Skaperen | Vigo: I avoid Windows entirely ... have been doing so since Windows 3.1 | 00:49 |
| t1000_ | At least I'd expect getting a passphrase prompt when creating an lvm on a crypto partition... | 00:50 |
| Skaperen | Vigo: which was somewhere around Slackware 1.1 :) | 00:50 |
| red2kic | jrib: And cron usually ran it as a root? o.O | 00:50 |
| DasEi2 | t1000_: whole story, you want to set up an crypted sys ? | 00:50 |
| Vigo | Skaperen: Yeah, that is the confusing part, but 95% of people online now are on Windows, I went out the window when BeOS was released. | 00:50 |
| senjin | Theravadan: I know how to setup a regular ssh tunnel, but I don't have a machine in the network I can ssh into | 00:50 |
| Luija1006 | Hello people I am just going to Install Ubuntu in a HP dv4 1528 laptop. This is the first time I install ubuntu in hp (I always used acer linux without problems). They are know issues with hardware on HP with Linux? Should I keep windows OS or format completely? | 00:50 |
| newmansan | DasEi2: what do you need to know from the output? | 00:51 |
| Bigbucks | Vigo, I was talking about like this | 00:51 |
| Bigbucks | http://ubuntu.files.wordpress.com/2006/08/powered_by_ubuntu.jpg?w=460 | 00:51 |
| Skaperen | Vigo: well, having a tool for migrating from Windows to Linux ... makes sense to work on Windows | 00:51 |
| DasEi2 | newmansan: any roms shown ? | 00:51 |
| histo | Theravadan: yeah you click try or install | 00:51 |
| jrib | red2kic: I don't know what Cyclist2 did with cron :) But even if you use your user's crontab, you need to specify a value for DISPLAY for gui apps to work | 00:51 |
| red2kic | Bigbucks: System76. http://tinyurl.com/6kk4sx | 00:51 |
| histo | Theravadan: you can add casper to it so it will save settings like apps you install etc.. | 00:51 |

| Bigbucks | can the "free" thing be trusted? | 00:52 |
| newmansan | lol k | 00:52 |
| DasEi2 | newmansan: how many optical drives does that box have ? | 00:52 |
| t1000_ | DasEi2: whole story, that's what I thought I did. I've done it twice on virtualbox already. When I did it to dual-boot at home, the same setup suddenly didn't go as I expected. | 00:52 |
| Theravadan | histo the people using this are really not brright so at the 'try /install' option, they're already lost .. i'll try dsl | 00:52 |
| histo | !free | Bigbucks | 00:52 |
| ubottu | Bigbucks: freedom is important. Ubuntu is as free as we can make it, which means mostly free software. See http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/licensing | 00:52 |
| histo | Theravadan: i'm sure you can get rid of that menu | 00:52 |
| red2kic | Bigbucks: wut? We're talking about linux. You can trust linux. Just read the link. :) | 00:52 |
| cr33p | Skaperen: do you any other tips than could help? | 00:52 |
| Bigbucks | I mean the free sticker thing | 00:52 |
| newmansan | DasEi2: at the very bottom of the output there is a line that says >> int.2: cdrom | 00:52 |
| t1000_ | For the sake of clarity, the two previous setups generated a passphrase prompt for the crypto encryptions | 00:52 |
| Skaperen | Vigo ... for example ... http://slashusr.net/ubuntu/10.04/ubuntu-10.04-desktop-i386.iso.img ... you can figure out the URL for the amd64, netbook, and kubuntu variations (I haven't gotten an xubuntu ISO to do this to, yet) | 00:52 |
| newmansan | DasEi2: is that what you meant? | 00:53 |
| t1000_ | I'm just saying, it's weird. | 00:53 |
| DasEi2 | newmansan: how many optical drives does that box have ? | 00:53 |
| t1000_ | btw, thanks for the grep help, DasEi2 | 00:53 |
| Bigbucks | Has anyone used the System76 thing before? | 00:53 |
| JoshDreamland | does blacklist= take parameters in a string, or do you say it once for each module? | 00:53 |
| Vigo | Skaperen: I am testing older hardware and low end systems, I am a Sailor and a nice lightweight system is great for when one is out to sea. | 00:53 |
| newmansan | DasEi2: one optical drive | 00:53 |
| Skaperen | cr33p: nope ... all my ideas for causes are exhausted ... would have to run tests and analyze now | 00:53 |
| DasEi2 | t1000_: you try to set up crypted lvm on an existing dualboot ? | 00:54 |
| Skaperen | Vigo: so smaller things like xubuntu would be nice ... or DSL, etc | 00:54 |
| DasEi2 | newmansan: so there should be a line : /dev/cdrom... | 00:54 |
| cr33p | Skaperen: would you like to use some kind of teamviewer to test it now or later? | 00:54 |
| t1000_ | DasEi2: t'wasn't dualboot at the time | 00:54 |
| Skaperen | Vigo: and netbooks, etc | 00:54 |
| JoshDreamland | Are my messages getting through? | 00:55 |
| red2kic | JoshDreamland: Yes. | 00:55 |
| DasEi2 | t1000_: so a fresh install or a conversion ? | 00:55 |
| t1000_ | Last time I tried to triboot I.....messed up | 00:55 |
| Skaperen | cr33p: no ... the testing involves stuff I would not be able to see that way | 00:55 |
| Skaperen | cr33p: unfortunately, it is now more of a "gotta really be there to get my hands on hardware" thing now | 00:55 |
| Vigo | Skaperen: http://www.kubuntu.org/getkubuntu/download | 00:55 |
| epg | any one knows how to solve the issues with the suspend-hibernate in the acer aspire netbook (ubuntu 9.04) | 00:56 |
| newmansan | DasEi2: there is nothing between the line for /proc/sys/dev/cdrom/info and the line for /proc/sys/dev/cdrom/ info end | 00:56 |
| cr33p | Skaperen: ah ok, thanks anyway | 00:56 |
| Skaperen | Vigo: got kubuntu ... looking for xubuntu | 00:56 |

| Skaperen | Vigo: actually I did see one at one site the other day | 00:56 |
| DasEi2 | newmansan: so it seems the drive isn't recognized by the system, check /var/log/syslog for additional information then | 00:56 |
| dennda | Can I redefine my copy/paste shortcuts? | 00:57 |
| Vigo | Skaperen: http://www.ubuntu.com/products/whatisubuntu/xubuntu | 00:57 |
| dennda | (NOT only for the terminal) | 00:57 |
| t1000_ | DasEi2: as fresh as I could make it. I ran fixMBR to restore the windoze boot manager (with no os detection aka. windows only), and then I deleted the old linux partitions | 00:57 |
| dennda | globally ideally | 00:57 |
| newmansan | DasEi2: what specifically should i check for? | 00:57 |
| Vigo | Skaperen: and here:> http://www.xubuntu.org/ | 00:58 |
| Skaperen | Vigo: but this week I'm busy getting my own computers onto 10.04 ... having packages issues (trying to find packages I used to have that seem to now be gone) | 00:58 |
| jean-pierresainf | well back to this room after few hrs playing with ubuntu 64bit | 00:58 |
| DasEi2 | newmansan: something abaout errors in initialisation of that device, also dmesg > dmesg.txt (bootmessages) can contain info (gedit dmesg.txt) | 00:58 |
| Skaperen | Vigo: for example: metamail and sunbird | 00:58 |
| jean-pierresainf | dwnld of new image | 00:59 |
| Vigo | Skaperen: Yes, I use the Way Back at Debian for some stuff like that. | 00:59 |
| jean-pierresainf | ran all md5sum | 00:59 |
| jean-pierresainf | all ok | 00:59 |

| Cammy_ | Hi. Every time I boot up with Lucid, my desktop theme is lost and I have to pick it. Any ideas? | 00:59 |
| Skaperen | Vigo: these packages are in 9.10 ... not in 10.04 ... first checks I want to do is see if they got renamed or integrated inside other packages | 00:59 |
| jean-pierresainf | but still fails on an52 abit mb | 00:59 |
| xangua | Cammy_: did you disable something on the startup apps¿ | 01:00 |
| Skaperen | Vigo: I could always try installing them from their 9.10 debs, too :) | 01:00 |
| Vigo | Skaperen: Is mostly just have not been dpkg'ed for 10.04,,,yet | 01:00 |
| Skaperen | Vigo: but I want to find out what happened, first | 01:00 |
| jean-pierresainf | any suggestions to debug this issue | 01:00 |
| jean-pierresainf | ? | 01:00 |
| fellipe_brazil | hi friends, is it possible to have a machine with ubuntu server 10.04 32bits with more than 4GB of RAM memory? | 01:01 |
| newbie_ | this is absolutely insane, ive reinstalled ubuntu 3 times now to check how i got wifi problems, it seems i get wifi problems if i use update manager, and install 42 various updates, after reboot, i get 6 choices ( like 2 different kernel versions or whatever), it fails on both versions, but if install local language AFTER i've done the updates, then wifi seems to work | 01:01 |
| Skaperen | Vigo: that could be ... and if so, I'd just wait for them (and go ahead with other things on 10.04) | 01:01 |
| DasEi2 | fellipe_brazil: yes, pae or server kernel | 01:01 |
| DasEi2 | !pae | 01:01 |
| ubottu | To use more than ~3.2GB RAM on a 32bit system you can install the PAE-enabled kernel. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EnablingPAE for more info | 01:01 |
| Skaperen | Vigo: but if not, then I'd go get them from 9.10 and see if they work (should) | 01:01 |
| fellipe_brazil | thanks | 01:01 |
| DasEi2 | np | 01:02 |
| newbie_ | ( and no, i dont use anything but standard english characters in the ssid or pw) | 01:02 |
| Vigo | Skaperen: I did notice that some things actually got updated, SeaMonkey is now current release. it was not ever before, there in may be the rub. | 01:02 |
| Skaperen | Vigo: ah ... yeah | 01:03 |
| Skaperen | Vigo: I never actually used sunbird ... but I had planned to try it ... so I had it installed in 9.10 | 01:03 |
| Luija1006 | Hello people I am just going to Install Ubuntu in a HP dv4 1528 laptop. This is the first time I install ubuntu in hp (I always used acer linux without problems). They are know issues with hardware on HP with Linux? Should I keep windows OS or format completely?

| Vigo | Skaperen: Yes, things changed, that is the nature of things, and I must leave now, I Thank you kindly and have fun! | 01:04 |
| Skaperen | Luija1006: my brother's HP laptop runs 9.10 just fine ... Windows won't install on it | 01:04 |
| Luija1006 | Skaperen: The HP supports 64 bit, Should I install 64 bit kubuntu or stay with 32 bit? | 01:05 |
| Skaperen | Luija1006: I think I had to switch the wireless driver to an alternat on it ... all else just worked | 01:05 |
| newmansan | DasEi2: well, i kinda glossed over the sys log and it doesn't even look like the DVD drive was even noticed there | 01:05 |
| UbuntuJeff | Luija1006, I agree with Skaperen, I have ran linux on a hp laptop before no problem. And my opinion I would say go 32 bit | 01:05 |
| Skaperen | Luija1006: how much RAM does it have? | 01:05 |
| newmansan | DasEi2: not even an error, just nothing | 01:05 |
| DasEi2 | newmansan: can you pastebin it ? | 01:06 |
| Cammy_ | Ok, that was odd | 01:06 |
| newbie_ | Luija1006: wow, a laptop that doesnt run windows? sounds exotic, whats the model # | 01:06 |
| Skaperen | Luija1006: if 2G or less go 32-bit unless you need more than 1G of heap size in VMs | 01:06 |
| newmansan | DasEi2, sure, how do I do that? | 01:06 |
| === minjoo_ is now known as minjoo | ||
| DasEi2 | newmansan: sudo apt-get install pastebinit && pastebinit /var/log/syslog | 01:06 |

| DasEi2 | newmansan: give resulting url here | 01:07 |
| Luija1006 | UbuntuJeff: Skaperen the laptop have 4GB of ram | 01:07 |
| Skaperen | newbie_: it doesn't INSTALL Windows ... because the internal DVD is dead ... and its BIOS doesn't understand booting from DVD on USB ... it CAN boot from flash drive on USB ... Ubuntu is easy that way | 01:07 |
| budlust | i have a really large word list text file that I would like to split into multiple text files, is this possible ? | 01:07 |
| mechi | How can i get the netbook desktop switcher app? | 01:07 |
| UbuntuJeff | Luija1006, I would say 32 bit still just because I have had trouble with 64 bit compatibility problems in the past. I could be wrong, it might have gotten better, but I think 32 bit would still be best. | 01:07 |
| newbie_ | Skaperen: uhm.. its quite easy to install windows that way aswell? | 01:07 |
| DasEi2 | budlust: sure, see man split | 01:08 |
| JoshDreamland | Well, just like I predicted, the fault is entirely to do with graphics. | 01:08 |
| budlust | DasEi2: thanks | 01:08 |
| JoshDreamland | And there, for just a moment, I thought Lucid would fix the graphics problems | 01:08 |
| Skaperen | I have Ubuntu 64-bit on a 4G laptop at work ... no problems at all with 64-bit issues | 01:08 |
| DasEi2 | budlust: you want to have them readable (the parts ?) | 01:08 |
| budlust | DasEi2: ya | 01:09 |
| newmansan | DasEi2: http://pastebin.com/imdcMLPu | 01:09 |
| UbuntuJeff | Skaperen, like I said could of gotten better, I just ran into more problems on 64-bit last time I tried it a few months back then I have on 32-bit. | 01:09 |
| Skaperen | UbuntuJeff: well, keep trying every now and then ... it will get better ... some day it will reach your threashold | 01:09 |
| DasEi2 | budlust: so split won't do the job, man cat then, use lines and pipe in subfiles | 01:09 |
| newmansan | DasEi2: it initializes two different sets of hardware because i had to install it on one computerbefore putting in its current home | 01:10 |
| UbuntuJeff | Skaperen, oh I don't want to install it I was just commenting about Luija1006's question | 01:10 |
| DasEi2 | newmansan: I'm looking over it now | 01:10 |
| amabo | could someone help me out in installing the elementary icons? | 01:10 |

| mechi | Can somebody tell me how i can get ahold of the desktop-switcher app for the netbook edition? | 01:11 |
| JoshDreamland | Maybe it's time I just figure out a surefire way to solve this problem and write my own how-to. I guess I've put up with it long enough. Seven distros, in fact. And it's still not fixed. So. | 01:11 |
| jean-pierresainf | anyone here with amd64 on an52 abit ? | 01:11 |
| jean-pierresainf | lucid boot issue | 01:11 |
| Skaperen | UbuntuJeff: I'm seeing some rumblings that Linus may drop support for PAE mode in the future ... so then 2G or 4G will be the break point and above that 64-bit is a must to use the RAM | 01:11 |
| jean-pierresainf | would like to get a clue :-) | 01:11 |
| Skaperen | UbuntuJeff: PAE mode is a PitA for kernel development ... makes a lot of the system access macros really messy | 01:12 |
| UbuntuJeff | Skaperen, oh okay. is there a way to turn that off or something then? lol | 01:12 |
| Skaperen | UbuntuJeff: turn off PAE? its a choice of how the kernel is built ... a pure 32 bit kernel is limited in what RAM it can access ... above that 32 bit has to play tricks while 64-bit is clean and simple | 01:13 |
| Luija1006 | UbuntuJeff: Skaperen to be honest... the thing is the instalation of the OS for the hp pavilion 1528 is for my mom, because she told me windows 7 is really bad, and she ask me: The thing you run in your acer, that kubuntu, its virus free true? it works can I try it? and I accesed to install it in her laptop, but I dont want her to suffer with incompatiblities, etc... thats why I asked about 64 bit. Also what desktop would be simplier to her, gnome or kde? | 01:13 |
| Luija1006 | (but I actually use kde in my laptop so I could help her in his doubts i think, what you say) | 01:13 |
| UbuntuJeff | amabo, open appearance, click install and find the elementary....gz file click it. will say apply them click that. done | 01:13 |
| HL-SDK | 1600 nicks! | 01:13 |
| UbuntuJeff | Luija1006, probably Kde since she is use to Windows right now. | 01:14 |
| amabo | UbuntuJeff: thanks :) | 01:14 |
| UbuntuJeff | Skaperen, I have 2gb so would I really benefit all that much from 64bit atm? well on this machine I mean lol | 01:14 |
| Skaperen | Luija1006: if it has 2G or less, 32 bit is fine ... above that, 32 bit works. At 8G I'd say the benefits learn to "64 bit is a must" | 01:15 |
| ashik | hello | 01:15 |

| Luija1006 | UbuntuJeff: Skaperen I want her to have a good experience with linux :) so I choose the 32bit over the 64bit although it has 4GB ram? | 01:16 |
| Skaperen | anyway, gotta run now ... maybe be back later tonight | 01:16 |
| dominicdinada | Is there a program out there to better clean up files on the hard drive ? IE apt cache etc? | 01:16 |
| Luija1006 | UbuntuJeff: Skaperen I dont see many mothers using linux lol | 01:16 |
| h00k | Luija1006: I run 64bit and have an excellent experience | 01:16 |
| HL-SDK | Gentlemen (and women), I have created an issue for myself indeed. I havve chowned my entire computer to root. I am unable to sudo to change anything back. I am on a VM and I would really like to recover some data before reinstalling (if I have to). Halp? | 01:16 |
| Skaperen | Luija1006: 32 bit on 4G RAM will work ... will use all the RAM | 01:16 |
| UbuntuJeff | Luija1006, I would say run the 64 bit, seems to have gotten better plus you have 4gb of ram will help :) | 01:17 |
| Luija1006 | h00k: whats your RAM? | 01:17 |
| amabo | is it possible to edit the appearance of any apps opened with root? | 01:17 |

| UbuntuJeff | h00k, with 2gb would there be any benefit really on 64bit? | 01:17 |
| Skaperen | Luija1006: but I'd say 64-bit is so close only a few issues left, like maybe not the very latest Flash in the browser or Adobe Acrobat (there are better PDF readers, anyway) | 01:17 |

| fuzzybunny69y | hey everyone I have kind of a strange problem. I have a program that starts up with Ubuntu Lucid called Tilda. It is a dropdown terminal and I have it set to be partially transparent. When I first start my computer the transparency is active but it shows my desktop background. So for example if I have Xchat open and summon Tilda it will show my desktop background instead of Xchat. But then if I exit Tilda and reopen it then summon it again it work | 01:23 |

| al-tabq | t1000__, nope, acer travelmate..thinking about switching to lenovo once i got the means though | 01:23 |
| edbian | fuzzybunny69y, For that transparency to work 100% you need to use a compsitor like compiz fusion | 01:23 |
| effigy | xangua: gtkpod used to work with my ipod though, but this is an ipod touch | 01:23 |

| h00k | effigy: It should show you songs that are currently on it | 01:40 |
| DasEi | newmansan: ah | 01:40 |
| FluffyMaster | onetinsoldier: i got a fatal error | 01:41 |
| DasEi | newmansan: that can also be a bad medium, have you got one you know is working on other boxes ? | 01:41 |
| MK13 | is there any way to boot from the server version iso from grub2? it gets to the part of detecting the cd and fails there. | 01:41 |
| facsimile | (installing ubuntu) If I am using rEFIt should I turn off 'Install boot loader' in the advanced options? | 01:41 |
| UtherX | OK, when someone has the answer, please PM me. Thanks | 01:42 |
| onetinsoldier | FluffyMaster: i'm not really surprised. something is probably messed up with those partitions. can't trust 'fdisk'. even says so in it's man page | 01:42 |
| effigy | h00k: still says nothing is mounted | 01:42 |

| MrKeuner | hi, my lenovo x200 laptop hibernates instead of suspending although I have set it to suspend in power manager, how can I enable logging of power manager? | 01:42 |
| FluffyMaster | onetinsoldier: so i am at a loss for what to do. one thing i am considering, is i have a copy of XP Pro with a legit CD key. do u think if i install that, and then try a wubi install, it will work? | 01:43 |
| onetinsoldier | FluffyMaster: you really want linux on there, you need to wipe the current partition table, imo. i could be wrong, but if cfdisk chokes on trying to read the partition table of the drive, i think that's the case | 01:43 |
| onetinsoldier | i = it | 01:43 |
| enlil | Hello | 01:44 |
| h00k | effigy: hrm. actually, unplug your iPod (eject), close gtkpod, plug it in, open gtkpod, and see if it will load it | 01:44 |
| MrKeuner | When I choose suspend from the menu it suspends and wakes up fine, it is only when it is idle 10 minutes that it goes to hibernate instead of suspending | 01:44 |

| enlil | "gftp-text login:pass@host <<< "cd backups"" works | 01:44 |
| FluffyMaster | onetinsoldier: well if i actually chose to install XP, i would delete the whole table and install over it | 01:44 |
| enlil | But it's a single instruction | 01:44 |
| jean-pierresainf | well :-) as I said I have found an answer :-) | 01:44 |

| DareDevil0 | i really dont't know what is that for | 01:46 |
| newmansan | DasEiL thanks for all your help | 01:46 |
| FluffyMaster | onetinsoldier: actually the more i think about it, the more i like the XP idea | 01:46 |
| DareDevil0 | that is configuring gns3 | 01:46 |
| jean-pierresainf | when I disable this I am able to boot the kernel provide by installer | 01:46 |
| DasEi | newmansan: sry for that | 01:46 |
| amabo | DasEi: ah, got it | 01:46 |
| enlil | Actually it doesn't concern gftp-text in particular | 01:46 |
| enlil | It's about passing several instructions in one string | 01:46 |
| unop | enlil, a guess. gftp-text login:pass@host <<< "cd backups; get myfile; cd otherdir; other_command;" | 01:46 |
| onetinsoldier | FluffyMaster: roger. i recommend to use the cfdisk to delete all current partition tables, then use it to make yourself an NTFS partition. then after that, perhaps linux, or wubi, will install | 01:46 |
| newmansan | DasEi: sheite hapens, what can ya do | 01:46 |
| DasEi | amabo: ubuntu-desktop ? | 01:46 |
| enlil | Ok I'll tru with the ; unop | 01:46 |
| amabo | DasEi: huh? | 01:46 |
| amabo | DasEi: i guess | 01:46 |
| unop | enlil, or you might have to use a newline separator instead of ; | 01:47 |
| effigy | h00k: same, but it still says not mounted at '/media/ipod' not where it is with the /user/ | 01:47 |
| onetinsoldier | FluffyMaster: the NTFS partition being for your windows, of course | 01:47 |
| h00k | amabo: elementary-desktop doesn't exist in the repository | 01:47 |
| jean-pierresainf | this kernel probably is not able to recognize the usb chip onboard and may not have the proper driver for it. | 01:47 |
| jean-pierresainf | further investigation will tell me soon | 01:47 |
| FluffyMaster | onetinsoldier: couldnt i just do that when i boot the windows disc? | 01:47 |

| wubba | yes it actually auto launched when I isntalled it | 02:09 |
| FluffyMaster | onetinsoldier: so chkdsk /f is done. maybe i should try wubi one more time | 02:09 |

| ubottu | lazarus477: 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). GUI frontends such as Firestarter/Gufw (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE) also exist. | 02:10 |

| onetinsoldier | shreymech: hello. you want to know what the changes were for the new kernel revision | 02:10 |
| SuperID | h00k, ok..... seemed like a valid request though | 02:10 |
| shreymech | onetinsoldier, yes man.. | 02:11 |

| Marttin | anyone can help me with NdisWrapper? | 02:12 |
| sebsebseb | hi melanie | 02:12 |

| melanie | is this good: restart and hold the SHIFT key, enter recovery mode for the top kernel listed, run xfix then reboot again and see how that treats you | 02:13 |
| sebsebseb | melanie: basically the Linux kernel is there in the background, and it runs the software | 02:13 |
| wubba | DasEi, green means muted? | 02:13 |
| DasEi | wubba: no, green is fine | 02:13 |
| wubba | DasEi, The bar is about 3/4 up on both channels | 02:14 |
| wubba | proc shows the card | 02:14 |
| DasEi | wubba: so need some more debugging then, follow : | 02:14 |
| DasEi | !sound | 02:14 |
| 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).

| onetinsoldier | shreymech: yes. couldn't seem to load up, or, make from scratch and save... an fwbuilder-3.0.7 firewall script. it would ctd when trying to do either of those. not sure what the issue is. now, it depends on if you really think that's a major bug though. but have a found a bug? yeah.. seems so | 02:24 |
| FluffyMaster | onetinsoldier: it didnt work... ia m tired of seeing "no root file system is defined | 02:24 |

| miked595 | JoshDreamland: then it will be wiped out | 02:24 |
| haavaros | JoshDreamland: You may be in a world of hell hours from now. I've been on this channel the last week seeing ppl getting beat up by the lynx ... I have too. Take a full backup of your system before upgrading. Many have no problems, but too many does | 02:24 |
| sebsebseb | GeekSquid: oh been using the commands mainly you mean? | 02:24 |
| onetinsoldier | FluffyMaster: darn. this is after you did a chkdsk.. right? | 02:24 |
| miked595 | JoshDreamland: back it up to another disk | 02:25 |
| duffydack | arinda, then a complete backup is the only way.. a remastersys doesnt save personal configs.. | 02:25 |

| melanie | sebsebseb i do :(restart and hold the SHIFT key, enter recovery mode for the top kernel listed, run xfix then reboot again and see how that treats you)but where you run xfix? | 02:30 |
| Barnabas | sebsebseb, isnt and "xfix" the same as a "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" ? | 02:30 |
| sebsebseb | Barnabas: probably | 02:31 |

| dipu | Hi .. I am running ubuntu 10.04 .. youtube audio does not work on firefox..3.6.3 .. any ideas ....thanx in advance | 02:36 |
| omar | psusi, for instance, grepping for a command in .bash_history and executing it immediately instead of copy/pasting it | 02:36 |
| sebsebseb | melanie: so uhmmm well I could find the text again, basically the log in screen wont' show properly yes? | 02:37 |
| melanie | when i close my screen, i wait (the login music) and i open my screen and i have an image! | 02:37 |

| sebsebseb | melanie: a lot of graphics cards don't work properly in Ubuntu at the moment, because of lack of manufacture support | 03:01 |
| Radio-b | Jordan_U: hda0,5 is listed | 03:01 |
| poenuosecr | could anyone please tell me how to make sure | 03:01 |

| poenuosecr | could anyone please tell me how to make sure "on-access" scanning is on in ubuntu? | 03:01 |

| Guest66757 | !language melanie | 03:02 |
| sebsebseb | melanie: newer is not always better, it depends on the user, but also their hardware | 03:02 |
| om3n5150 | I had that problem, with the BCM wireless adapter. | 03:02 |
| Guest66757 | Hey guys I think I messed up my networking settings, network manager and ifconfig don't recognize my wifi card after editing nm-system-settings.conf I changed it back but it still doesn't wormk any ideas? I have rebooted | 03:02 |
| roberto__ | luis_: more pastebin.ubuntu.com, less paste | 03:02 |
| sebsebseb | melanie: 9.10 is actsauly better than 10.04 in certain ways | 03:02 |
| {C9}Blizakster | 9.10 doesn't like my wlan either | 03:02 |
| GeekSquid | roberto__: that's paste.ubuntu.com | 03:02 |
| sebsebseb | melanie: if you want to attempt restartging xorg though | 03:02 |
| om3n5150 | System > Administration > Hardware Drivers fixed it for me | 03:02 |
| {C9}Blizakster | 9.04 is the one i've been using until I get help :) | 03:03 |
| sebsebseb | !xorg | melanie | 03:03 |

| dipu | Hi all .. youtube audio doesn't work with ubuntu 10.04 .. any ideas ?? | 03:03 |
| melanie | sebsebseb :ok thank for your help | 03:03 |
| Jordan_U | luis_: Yes, you have grub set to install to your windows partition. Run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc" and when prompted for install devices choose just /dev/sda, *not* any partitions like /dev/sda1. | 03:03 |
| sebsebseb | melanie: uhmm | 03:03 |

| dipu | flash audio has issues | 03:04 |
| Jordan_U | Radio-b: Does "ls (hd0,5)/" list the files you expect? | 03:04 |
| melanie | i stay whie 10.04 and wait for an update... | 03:04 |
| joscht | can someone help for some reason it is trying to update something not in /etc/apt/sources.list and it makes my update not work i get a 404 error not found | 03:04 |
| luis_ | thanks Jordan_U i'll try it...sorry about the floods everybody | 03:04 |
| sebsebseb | melanie: uhmm thing is when it comes to that is uhmm | 03:04 |
| Radio-b | Jordan_U: yes, boot, grub, and the works are all there | 03:04 |
| sebsebseb | melanie: a update is not likely to come that will fix your issue in 10.04, because they only tend to do security updates | 03:04 |
| dipu | Blizakster : only flash has issues | 03:04 |
| todkon | roberto__: I'm a bit confused, but where would the xinput file be locatted? I can't seem to find the right file in /etc/X11 | 03:05 |
| scheng | somebody used ubuntu 10.0.4? | 03:05 |
| CloudMonkee | how do i recognize myself | 03:05 |
| Jordan_U | Radio-b: try running "set prefix=(hd0,5)/boot/grub/" then "insmod normal" then "normal" | 03:05 |
| CloudMonkee | as in auth* | 03:05 |
| Dr_Willis | joscht: check /etc/apt/sources.d/ thats where 'extra' sources should be configfured at. It could also be the servers are down. | 03:05 |
| sebsebseb | melanie: Is there a feature in 10.04 that you want, that 9.10 does not have? | 03:05 |
| melanie | sebsebseb : no | 03:05 |
| acerimmer | Radio-b : sudo update-grub | 03:05 |
| joscht | Dr_Willis: thanks i will check right now | 03:05 |
| CloudMonkee | melanie: trust me, download 10.04. it is a goldmine. | 03:06 |
| sebsebseb | melanie: well then you may as well put 9.10 back on for now at least. next version of Ubuntu will be 10.10 at the end of October by the way | 03:06 |
| Dr_Willis | omar: theres some package yopu install that can add that feature. 'ubuntu-tweak' can also install it for you | 03:06 |
| Radio-b | update-grub isn't available in the rescue | 03:06 |
| sebsebseb | CloudMonkee: she has 10.04 already and an issue with it | 03:06 |
| Radio-b | giving those commands a spin | 03:06 |
| todkon | ah nevermind, I assume its just xinitrc | 03:06 |
| melanie | viva october! | 03:06 |
| roberto__ | todkon: honestly, I'm not sure. I just know that thread everyone is talking about that same problem. there's some conf file named earlier in the discussion but you'd have to search to find it | 03:06 |
| joscht | Dr_Willis: i tried sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.d/ and nothing came up.... | 03:06 |
| sebsebseb | melanie: ignore people who say that the new version is the best, because it's new, :) | 03:07 |
| todkon | roberto__: ah alright, I'll look around, thanks for the pointers | 03:07 |
| CloudMonkee | sebsebseb: aww that's too bad. Ubuntu 10.04 is really a treat. they've finally put some extra features in gui for mainstream | 03:07 |
| Radio-b | Jordan_U: normal worked | 03:07 |
| GeekSquid | joscht: try cd /etc/apt/sources.list.d then ls | 03:07 |
| omar | Dr_Willis, thanks found it in ubuntu tweak :) | 03:07 |
| sebsebseb | CloudMonkee: the two new themes suck really | 03:07 |
| Dayofswords | so no one else is having "ubuntuforums.org" issues? cuz it says i'm alone, and its constantly reloading | 03:07 |
| flavio | Hello, could someone explain what I have to do in order to enable compositing for intel 945? It was running fine after install. | 03:07 |
| Radio-b | cool, it's booting | 03:08 |
| roberto__ | yrlnry: was that it ? | 03:08 |
| sebsebseb | CloudMonkee: also loads of rubbish Gnome edits on the top right panel, ok social features will be useful for winning noobs over, but still it's a rubbish Gnome edit what they done to the top right when it comes to that, really | 03:08 |
| Radio-b | yeah, prefix was (hd0,6) | 03:08 |
| scrp3l | Hi, i'm having file system checks every time i boot after upgrading to lucid. before rebooting i can see the error: umount2 device or resource busy on some of my fs. Does anyone know where to look to fix thix ? | 03:08 |
| melanie | sebsebseb ; i have to go very thank for your help!!!! | 03:08 |
| Radio-b | which makes sense | 03:08 |
| sebsebseb | CloudMonkee: of course their Gnome editing will probably improve in 10.10, but still | 03:08 |
| Radio-b | the manual wiki is missing a step | 03:08 |
| melanie | sebsebseb :bye and long live to you! | 03:08 |
| Guest66757 | Hey guys I think I messed up my networking settings, network manager and ifconfig don't recognize my wifi card after editing nm-system-settings.conf I changed it back but it still doesn't wormk any ideas? I have rebooted I also can't access the internet so I'm pretty mucbh at a stand still | 03:08 |
| joscht | GeekSquid: is it getdeb.list? | 03:08 |
| GeekSquid | joscht: very well could be | 03:09 |
| yrlnry | roberto__: Yes. As soon as I checked "edge flip move" box, it worked again. | 03:09 |
| Guest66757 | Please guys any ideas I'm desperate I've had this problem for days | 03:09 |
| joscht | GeekSquid: the problem is though that it is openprinting xerox printers and i dont see them here | 03:09 |
| GeekSquid | joscht: are you trying to install the xerox or uninstall? | 03:10 |
| joscht | nothing i was just trying to update and it gives me the 404 error so i cant update | 03:10 |
| tm512 | quick question, does ubuntu install grub to mbr? | 03:11 |
| Guest66757 | Hey guys I think I messed up my networking settings, network manager and ifconfig don't recognize my wifi card after editing nm-system-settings.conf I changed it back but it still doesn't wormk any ideas? I have rebooted I also can't access the internet so I'm pretty mucbh at a stand still | 03:11 |
| sebsebseb | tm512: by default yes | 03:11 |
| luis_ | jordan_U still the same problem | 03:11 |
| GeekSquid | joscht: gksudo gedit getdeb.list and put a # at the beginning of each line and save then apt-get update | 03:11 |
| Radio-b | the set prefix line is in the docs | 03:12 |
| tm512 | okay, i'm probably going to get shot for mentioning this, but i assume it wouldn't be much trouble to install freebsd over ubuntu, then? | 03:12 |
| Radio-b | but it isn't numbered in consistency with the other steps | 03:12 |
| Jordan_U | luis_: That was just to configure grub so that it doesn't overwrite the windows bootloader again. To restore the windows bootloader follow this guide: http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/bootinfoscript/index.php?title=Boot_Problems:Boot_Sector | 03:12 |
| dipu | Hi all .. youtube audio doesn't work with ubuntu 10.04 .. any ideas ?? | 03:12 |
| luis_ | ok... | 03:12 |
| Tired_2 | unmute it | 03:13 |
| Tired_2 | j/k | 03:13 |
| joscht | GeekSquid: there is only one line which is http:.... getdeb.apps | 03:13 |
| h00k | tm512: ...over Ubuntu? | 03:13 |
| Jordan_U | luis_: Sorry, I meant to give you the second part of the instructions before you left | 03:13 |
| luis_ | Jordan_U can you give me the last comand again? | 03:13 |
| luis_ | ok | 03:13 |
| roberto__ | yrlnry: darn .. it just sits there for me | 03:13 |
| GeekSquid | joscht: that is the line | 03:13 |
| tm512 | i want to remove ubuntu, and install freebsd | 03:13 |
| roberto__ | thanks though | 03:13 |
| bezao | hi, i'm running ubuntu server, i have bash scripts on differents accounts, so can i execute it without loggin on each account? | 03:13 |
| Jordan_U | luis_: sudo dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc | 03:13 |
| luis_ | Jordan_U just to check if i made is correctly.. | 03:14 |
| luis_ | ok... | 03:14 |
| luis_ | thanks | 03:14 |
| h00k | tm512: You can remove it and install with whatever OS you want, as long as you format that partition | 03:14 |
| Radio-b | oh cool, last update fixed my cursor madness | 03:14 |
| tm512 | but i'm concerned about grub | 03:14 |
| Jordan_U | luis_: You're welcome. | 03:14 |
| joscht | GeekSquid: still the same error 404 not found with the openprinting database | 03:14 |
| tm512 | because i still need windows 7 working on here | 03:15 |
| h00k | tm512: about losing it? | 03:15 |
| h00k | tm512: you'd have to check with FreeBSD's documentation about bootloaders | 03:15 |
| tm512 | that, or i wont be able to boot my new os | 03:15 |
| GeekSquid | joscht: would you pastebin the output of apt-get update | 03:15 |
| bezao | hi, i'm running ubuntu server, i have bash scripts on differents accounts, so can i execute it without loggin on each account? | 03:16 |
| zetheroo | obviously the Ubuntu team has turned a blind eye to simple and functional file and printer sharing ..... pity ... may have to run a Windowz machine to do what Linux cannot do without an excruciating amount of headache! | 03:16 |
| tm512 | can grub edit menu.lst | 03:16 |
| tm512 | bezao: SUDO!! :D | 03:16 |
| joscht | GeekSquid: http://paste.ubuntu.com/429258/ there it is | 03:16 |
| Tired_2 | anything wrong with using wubi for an install? | 03:17 |
| Tired_2 | seems pretty slick to me | 03:17 |
| Tired_2 | since i already ahve windows | 03:17 |
| Tired_2 | and want to dual boot | 03:17 |
| acerimmer | Tired_2: not so much wrong as less stable than a dedicated dual boot. | 03:17 |
| === xcfdj is now known as Se7en | ||
| === Se7en is now known as Se7en- | ||
| Tired_2 | oh, i get it | 03:18 |
| Tired_2 | (reading faq) | 03:18 |
| === eztk is now known as H | ||
| acerimmer | Tired_2: If I'm Not mistaken, there are more wubi breaks/issues than there are dual boot issues. | 03:18 |
| Tired_2 | yea, I think I'll go old school | 03:18 |
| === H is now known as Guest47270 | ||
| GeekSquid | joscht: ok, gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list and look for http://www.openprinting.org/ and # that line | 03:18 |
| Tired_2 | learn more that way | 03:18 |
| Tired_2 | still a cool thing though | 03:19 |
| acerimmer | Tired_2: use a good guide, TAKE YOUR TIME, and back everything critical up first. | 03:19 |
| Flynsarmy | How do you switch to the old style updater? the new one is retarded. Turns out it's been up for days, just minimized and on a different virtual desktop so i never even knew there were updates available | 03:19 |
| bezao | tm512 but i mean, i can use like this? su - acc1;./script1;su - acc2;./script2 ? | 03:20 |
| tm512 | I suppose, try it | 03:20 |
| joscht | GeekSquid: i searched through it and i couldn't find it | 03:20 |
| bezao | tm512 but it ask's password :/ | 03:20 |
| bezao | i have them, but for make a script this doesnt work | 03:20 |
| joscht | GeekSquid: http://paste.ubuntu.com/429260/ here it is | 03:20 |
| bezao | i want to make a script to run scripts | 03:20 |
| GeekSquid | Flynsarmy: goto System>administrator>software sources ... in the updates tab- half way down, uncheck check for updates | 03:21 |
| Agrajag- | i have a 2nd monitor (dvi) that since updating to 10.04, seems to change brightness depending on what's displayed on the screen. even when scrolling through a webpage in google chrome the brightness changes. if i use "display" to display a large image, it also goes very bright. it's extremely annoying, how do i stop this? | 03:21 |
| tm512 | dunno then | 03:21 |
| GeekSquid | joscht: cd into /etc/apt and do ls and tell me what is there | 03:21 |
| MrKeuner | how can I set what power manager does as sleep action? I think it is set to hibernate instead of suspend | 03:21 |
| bezao | :( | 03:21 |
| amikrop | Is VirtualBox OSE handling USB devices? | 03:22 |
| joscht | there is apt.conf.d sources.list.d trustdb.gpg trusted.gpg~ uh oh have to go | 03:22 |
| amikrop | I mean, does it recognize USB? | 03:22 |
| un214 | we have teleport | 03:22 |
| acerimmer | amikrop: pretty much no | 03:22 |
| GeekSquid | joscht: see ya | 03:22 |
| Radio-b | okay, I've gotten grub to boot from rescue | 03:22 |
| Radio-b | how do I commit the updated root/prefix values | 03:22 |
| amikrop | acerimmer: So, I have to install the proprietary version? | 03:23 |
| acerimmer_ | amikrop: so i understand but I've never vboxed usb's so not sure | 03:23 |
| amikrop | OK | 03:23 |
| amikrop | thank you | 03:23 |
| NOMAR | i need some help | 03:23 |
| acerimmer_ | !ask|nomar | 03:24 |

| sassinoogi | Anyone know how to load an ipod from Ubuntu? I know you need to change the format of the songs to a .wma file, but when I go to load the song onto it, they never show...any ideas? | 03:24 |
| NOMAR | ok | 03:24 |
| chak82 | NOMAR: please be more specific with your question!! | 03:24 |
| ahorner | Hey guys, I was wondering if there is some sort of application or something that would enable my Ubuntu NAS to be able to stream my videos over a webpage in flash or something. | 03:24 |
| chak82 | NOMAR: what you need? | 03:24 |
| xer0 | How do I enable ssh access to a machine? I can ping it, but ssh is denied | 03:25 |
| aeron | sassinoogi, the ipod cant play wma, try converting to mp3 first | 03:25 |
| NOMAR | i have the ubuntu 10.04 in a CD and i want to know how to install | 03:25 |
| MrPancake | xer0: sudo apt-get install openssh-server | 03:25 |
| GeekSquid | xer0: sudo apt-get install openssh-server | 03:25 |
| sassinoogi | OH--thanks! mp3, huh? | 03:25 |
| acerimmer_ | Nomar: have you tried the live demo yet?? | 03:25 |
| NOMAR | nop | 03:25 |
| aeron | yes, i believe the ipod supports mp3 and aac | 03:25 |
| xer0 | MrPancake: GeekSquid:thx | 03:25 |
| Flynsarmy | GeekSquid, I still want to to look for updates - i just want the notification back in the panel instead of it retardedly opening minimized on a virtual desktop i'm not evne using (must have opened as i was flicking through). found the solution in gconf-editor | 03:26 |
| acerimmer_ | nomar: strongly suggest you live cd for awhile to get a feel. | 03:26 |
| acerimmer_ | !manual|nomar | 03:26 |
| ubottu | nomar: The Ubuntu Manual will help you become familiar with everyday tasks such as surfing the web, listening to music and scanning documents. With an emphasis on easy to follow instructions, it is suitable for all levels of experience. http://ubuntu-manual.org/ | 03:26 |
| Guest66757 | Hey guys I think I messed up my networking settings, network manager and ifconfig don't recognize my wifi card after editing nm-system-settings.conf I changed it back but it still doesn't wormk any ideas? I have rebooted I also can't access the internet so I'm pretty mucbh at a stand still | 03:26 |
| Guest66757 | Please guys any ideas I'm desperate I've had this problem for days | 03:26 |
| acerimmer_ | NOMAR: read the manual, take your time, have fun | 03:26 |
| MrPancake | Guest66757: What does dmesg say about it? | 03:26 |
| NOMAR | my platform is ubuntu 8.4 | 03:26 |
| vaikz | hi, how to delete the history of gwibber? | 03:27 |
| acerimmer_ | nomar: that's a LTS. Run update manager and you should get an option to upgrade the distro to 10.04 | 03:27 |
| luis_ | jordan_U sorry for being so persistent... I instaled grub to a sd card, and followed the rules for the testdisk, and windows still does not starts | 03:27 |
| luis_ | i did update-grub on final | 03:27 |
| SuperLag_ | Will it still be read properly if I burn an ISO file to a DVD? | 03:27 |
| Jordan_U | luis_: What does happen when you select windows? | 03:28 |
| chak82 | Guest66757: hi, the SO recognize the wifi card ? | 03:28 |
| Jordan_U | SuperLag_: Yes | 03:28 |
| luis_ | it goes back to grub menu | 03:28 |
| Guest66757 | What | 03:28 |
| SuperLag_ | Jordan_U: do I need to use growisofs to burn? or will cdrecord be enough? | 03:28 |
| Guest66757 | Chak82 what I'm not that advanced | 03:28 |
| greezmunkey | Guest66757: can you paste your nm settings file please | 03:28 |
| NOMAR | my platform is ubuntu 8.4 and i want to upgrade it to 10.04 from a CD | 03:28 |
| Jordan_U | SuperLag_: cdrecord is enough | 03:29 |
| acerimmer_ | nomar: do you have 8.4 running now? | 03:29 |
| NOMAR | yes | 03:29 |
| GeekSquid | Flynsarmy: libnotify totally changed, so you will either have to update manually or live with the update manager opening on its own and sometimes on a different workspace | 03:29 |
| acerimmer_ | nomar: insert the cd | 03:29 |
| SuperLag_ | sweet | 03:29 |
| chak82 | Guest66757: please, look in synaptic for a packaged named sysinfo | 03:29 |
| NOMAR | i did it | 03:29 |
| NOMAR | then? | 03:29 |
| acerimmer_ | nomar: run update mgr | 03:29 |
| roberto__ | hey pretty much nothing from ccsm seems to work -- how can I verify I'm running compiz at this moment? | 03:29 |
| vaikz | hi, how to delete the history of gwibber? | 03:29 |
| acerimmer_ | update mgr should see the cd and offer to update | 03:30 |
| chak82 | Guest66757: this package gives u the model and brand of the device | 03:30 |
| Flynsarmy | GeekSquid, did anyone do any sort of usability testing on that? | 03:30 |
| luis_ | Jordan_U the sd card is my memory boost for windows (don't know if it is relevant) | 03:30 |
| sassinoogi | Aeron: When I used the "sound converter", it says that source files cannot be converted--is there another way to switch the files from .ogg to mp3? | 03:30 |
| chak82 | Guest66757: after that, you must look in ubuntu site if the device are supported for de SO | 03:30 |
| GeekSquid | Flynsarmy: probably not, however sabdfl has his hand in everything | 03:30 |
| chak82 | if does not | 03:30 |
| aeron | sassinoogi, are the files currently in .wma? you might need to download a codec before you can convert them | 03:30 |
| acerimmer_ | ?nomar? | 03:30 |
| sassinoogi | no | 03:30 |
| Guest66757 | Greezmunkey I don't have internet on the computer :/ the only option I have is managed=true and above that no-auto-default=mac id | 03:31 |
| dipu | Hi all .. youtube audio doesn't work with ubuntu 10.04 .. any ideas ?? | 03:31 |
| NOMAR | the update mgr is the gestor de paquetes in spanish? | 03:31 |
| greezmunkey | chak82: his card worked until he broke suport for it. | 03:31 |
| sassinoogi | I just downloaded sound converter to try to remedy this | 03:31 |
| Jordan_U | luis_: Are you sure you followed the instructions completely? If they don't work you will need a windows install CD (or otherwise be able to boot into windows) | 03:31 |
| Flynsarmy | GeekSquid, thanks for the help+info | 03:31 |
| acerimmer_ | nomar: do you need it in spanish?? | 03:31 |
| NOMAR | well i have running in spanish | 03:31 |
| chak82 | greezmunkey: this device are working now? | 03:31 |
| Guest66757 | Chak82 wusb54g v4 I checked supports wep only so I was trying to use ndiswrapper | 03:31 |
| shazbotmcnasty | dipu, make sure you have the latest flash | 03:31 |
| aeron | sassinoogi, what format is your music in right now? | 03:31 |
| Delif | Can anyone give me advice on why wubi first boot tells me not root path specified but never gives me an option to specify it during install? I tried uninstalling it and re-downloading/installing and have the same issue | 03:31 |
| sassinoogi | off | 03:32 |
| sassinoogi | oops!! .ogg | 03:32 |
| acerimmer_ | nomar: update mgr is also in spanish, si? | 03:32 |
| shazbotmcnasty | and then 'aumix' in terminal, and turn everything up | 03:32 |
| greezmunkey | Guest66757: what are you using for Inet access now? | 03:32 |
| NOMAR | ok let me try | 03:32 |

| dipu | shazbotmcnasty : I have adobe flash plugin version 10 | 03:33 |
| chak82 | Guest66757: i dont understand, the card are working or not? | 03:33 |
| roberto__ | acerimmer_: it's gestor de actualizaciones in spanish | 03:33 |
| aeron | sassinoogi, try running "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras" without the quotes and try sound converter again | 03:33 |
| dipu | shazbotmcnasty : thats what is shown in synaptec | 03:33 |
| sassinoogi | aeron: so, what "patch" am I downloading this time [to convert to ogg] | 03:33 |
| sassinoogi | ok | 03:33 |
| acerimmer_ | roberto__: no habla espanol. sorry | 03:33 |
| shazbotmcnasty | dipu, you can try to download the latest from the adobe site | 03:33 |
| shazbotmcnasty | and not the one is repos | 03:33 |
| Guest66757 | Chak82 it does not appear so, but the lights on it are alight | 03:33 |
| roberto__ | acerimmer_: not my problem man :) thought that you asked | 03:34 |
| chak82 | Guest66757: ok, THE DEVICE IS NOT WORKING YET !! | 03:34 |
| acerimmer_ | roberto: so what di d you say? I'm working with nomar | 03:34 |
| luis_ | Jordan_U : since my sd card is not a boot device, shouldn't the testdisk change it to a normal sd device? | 03:34 |
| chak82 | do you upload the windows driver for your card to ndiswrapper? | 03:34 |
| Guest66757 | Chak82 okay using caps does not help convey your message though | 03:34 |
| Jordan_U | luis_: I don't understand the question. | 03:35 |
| roberto__ | acerimmer_: the update manager -- you asked if it was in spanish too. Yes , it is. It's called "Gestor de Actualizaciones" in spanish | 03:35 |
| sassinoogi | aeron: now what...should this do it? | 03:35 |
| Guest66757 | Is it possible to restore my system to a previous state? I was thinking of the journaling system | 03:35 |

| justin22885 | hey everyone.. im creating a 32 bit chroot environment for my ubuntu installation | 03:39 |
| tamale1 | All, I'm noticing some very strange issues with two of my ubuntu computers after upgrading from 9.10 to 10.04. | 03:39 |
| tamale1 | On my laptop, after several hours of normal behavior and performance, the machine becomes utterly unresponsive. The moue cursor still tracks, but I can't really click on anything or type anything, as it takes almost 30 seconds for my commands to have any effect. | 03:39 |
| tamale1 | On my server, I have a constant load average of around 0.3 under the exact same workload now, while before the upgrade the load hovered between 0.01 and 0.05. | 03:39 |
| FloodBot1 | tamale1: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 03:39 |
| chak82 | Guest66757: what did show sysinfo to you about your card? | 03:39 |
| tamale1 | I didn't realize using shift-enter would do that. My apoligies | 03:40 |
| vicente | how delete xubuntu splash | 03:40 |
| acerimmer_ | nomar: does it say "desktop" or "server"?? | 03:40 |
| justin22885 | i keep getting annoying instability issues with 64 bit firefox plugins | 03:40 |
| dipu | shazbotmcnasty : about:plugins in firefox shows | 03:41 |
| shazbotmcnasty | dipu, do you have any other browser installed? | 03:41 |
| chak82 | Guest66757: actually, i was suggest you install the sysinfo package to let us know if ubuntu are seeing your card | 03:41 |
| justin22885 | installing a tiny base system of lucid into /var/i386 which will be the chroot of my 32 bit system | 03:41 |
| shazbotmcnasty | I remember I had that problem with firefox, but not in chrome | 03:41 |
| dipu | http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/Vns3Tz7L | 03:41 |
| Guest66757 | Chak82 in sysinfo under hardware and network nothing appears | 03:41 |
| shazbotmcnasty | then I restarted firefox after using chrome, and it fixed itself. | 03:41 |
| dipu | shazbotmcnasty : http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/Vns3Tz7L | 03:41 |
| shazbotmcnasty | dipu, I would try a different browser | 03:42 |
| justin22885 | once this is finished i will apt-get install firefox :-D after i chroot to the directory | 03:42 |
| aeron | how can i get my hard drives to show up in nautilus again? the drives in question are properly installed and are detected by grub (they're bootable). I can't mount them manually (mount: /dev/sda already mounted or /media/win7 busy) | 03:42 |
| dipu | shazbotmcnasty : yes .. i have epiphany | 03:42 |
| chak82 | Guest66757: did you test the device in another machine? | 03:42 |
| justin22885 | you use epiphany over firefox dipu? | 03:42 |
| acerimmer_ | nomar: u there? | 03:42 |
| Guest66757 | No. I do not have another. Should I try it with vista? | 03:42 |
| NOMAR | is desktop | 03:43 |
| dipu | shazbotmcnasty : i use firefox | 03:43 |
| dipu | shazbotmcnasty : other browser is epiphany | 03:43 |
| acerimmer_ | iflema: how to update 8.04 to 10.04 w/desktop CD?? | 03:43 |
| acerimmer_ | nomar: wait 1 | 03:43 |
| justin22885 | ill probably just delete 64-bit firefox then.. just run 32 bit solely | 03:43 |
| justin22885 | btw.. i was forced to switch to firefox | 03:43 |
| chak82 | Guest66757: the effect is the same, if vista can access to the device, ubuntu can get too | 03:43 |
| justin22885 | i mean.. forced to switch to ubuntu | 03:43 |
| shazbotmcnasty | dipu, try epiphany to see if it works on that | 03:43 |
| === Sereph is now known as you | ||

| fuzzybunny69y | hey everyone I have kind of a strange problem. I have a program that starts up with Ubuntu Lucid called Tilda. It is a dropdown terminal and I have it set to be partially transparent. When I first start my computer the transparency is active but it shows my desktop background. So for example if I have Xchat open and summon Tilda it will show my desktop background instead of Xchat. But then if I exit Tilda and reopen it then summon it again it work | 03:44 |
| fuzzybunny69y | s properly and shows the currently running application behind it instead of always showing the desktop. | 03:44 |
| studentz | Alternative install ecrypted volumes any advice or experience ? Thaks | 03:44 |
| shazbotmcnasty | but I don't want to get into browser politics | 03:44 |

| aeron | fuzzybunny69y, are you using compiz or another compositing window manager? | 03:45 |
| justin22885 | oh.. y'all want to know my #1 pet peeve i have with ubuntu?... | 03:45 |
| fuzzybunny69y | aeron, I think I am using Compiz | 03:45 |
| justin22885 | i HATE having to use my password for everything.. cant even pick my nose without entering the root password.. its just so annoying | 03:45 |
| fuzzybunny69y | I have the desktop effects set to normal so that means compiz right | 03:46 |
| justin22885 | its like the UAA on windows vista | 03:46 |
| aeron | i believe so yes | 03:46 |
| Guest66757 | Chak82 it sees it | 03:46 |
| acerimmer | justin22885: gksudo | 03:46 |
| justin22885 | someone please tell me how i can disable the root password on ubuntu.. i never want to have to type that crap again | 03:46 |
| evon | I am trying to recover a mac partition. I've used testdisk to find the lost partition but now I just need to write the partition but I don't know how. Testdisk tells me to use pdisk to accomplish this but I don't know how to install or even use pdisk. Can anyone help me? | 03:46 |
| onetinsoldier | zetheroo: no. it's default is gufw, but it's not enabled by default | 03:46 |
| mtx_init | Earlier today I turned on my pc and booted into ubuntu, only to be greeted by gnome asking me for my password. I have it set to auto login. I type in my password and it loop's me back. I then check .xsession-errors thinking its X messing up, it alerts me that ~/.profile cannon be read. I check permissions and ever replace the file. I get nothing. I uninstall the nvidia drivers, and I get nothing as well. What could this have been? | 03:46 |
| NOMAR | ok thanks | 03:46 |
| chak82 | Guest66757: thats strange, UBUNTU MUST SEE IT | 03:47 |

| Guest66757 | Chak82 so it must be hiding it from me?..... | 03:47 |
| justin22885 | how do i turn off the root password on ubuntu.. for that matter.. i dont ever want to type sudo again | 03:47 |
| onezero | justin22885: In what particular circumstances are you prompted for your password? Usually it's just when altering important files, for everyday use one shouldn't be asked for it very much. Have you just installed Ubuntu? | 03:47 |
| Cammy_ | Does anyone know why Lucid won't keep my theme after I reboot? I have to go into Appearance every time and pick it. | 03:47 |
| chak82 | Guest66757: i dont think so | 03:47 |
| shazbotmcnasty | !sudo | justin22885 | 03:47 |
| ubottu | justin22885: sudo is a command to run command-line programs with superuser privileges ("root") (also see !cli ) . Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE). If you're unable to execute commands with sudo see: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo | 03:47 |
| aeron | fuzzybunny69y, you'll have to modify the startup entry. first make a file somewhere called start_tilda.sh (or w/e you wanna call it) | 03:47 |
| shazbotmcnasty | OH NO THATS NOT THE OONE | 03:48 |
| shazbotmcnasty | :< | 03:48 |
| Guest66757 | Chak82 what do? | 03:48 |
| shazbotmcnasty | !root >> shazbotmcnasty | 03:48 |
| chak82 | Guest66757: maybe this hardware doesnt supported by | 03:48 |
| onetinsoldier | justin22885: i can tell you how for command line, but don't use the root command line to run graphical apps, only command line commands... sudo -i | 03:48 |
| Radio-b | why would update-grub detected duplicates of my boot entries? | 03:48 |
| defrysk | justin22885, do some reading on aliasing and editing the sudoers file | 03:48 |
| shazbotmcnasty | !root > shazbotmcnasty | 03:48 |
| ubottu | shazbotmcnasty, please see my private message | 03:48 |
| acerimmer | !gksudo|justin22885 | 03:48 |
| ubottu | justin22885: 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) | 03:48 |
| chak82 | Guest66757: can you give me again the model and brand of the card? | 03:48 |

| justin22885 | i want a blank root password | 03:54 |
| IdleOne | justin22885: please calm down and stay on topic. Ubuntu does not support having a root account or running without password. you are welcome to continue using Ubuntu as it is or you can make whatever changes you like to it but we will not be able to help you when things break. | 03:54 |
| GeekSquid | justin22885: no, windows is insecure because by default anything can be run from a dll or exe file, bypassing the need for user intervention, with linux the only way to run something that changes system files is to give it permission | 03:54 |
| mcarter | How can I create a network interface that has its own ip address but isn't associated with a physical card (I don't need it to have access to the internet) | 03:54 |
| Guest66757 | No chak82 look. Ifconfig doesn't see my card nothing sees it but yet vista does even without drivers I should be able to see it | 03:54 |
| justin22885 | when i double click on the launcher of an application, thats user intervention, everything between that and the program actually running is an annoyance | 03:54 |
| Cammy_ | Every time I boot up Lucid, my theme is reset to no theme. Does anyone have any idea how to make it remember my theme? | 03:54 |
| enter_name | defrysk: also the swap memory started to get used then never got emptied til i rebooted, it just seems like (for a netbook) a slower downerer | 03:55 |
| shazbotmcnasty | Davy, that's weird, make sure flash is installed, and sun java | 03:55 |
| Ganymede | mcarter, someone told me "modprobe dummy" in another channel regarding that, but i haven't looked into it | 03:55 |
| IdleOne | If anybody wants to continue discussing the pros/cons of running Ubuntu without a password please join #ubuntu-offtopic. | 03:55 |
| defrysk | enter_name, the ugliest site is also the most expalinory ; http://www.linuxatemyram.com/ | 03:55 |
| chak82 | Guest66757: i dont think the problem are related with filesystem type | 03:55 |
| Davy | shazbotmcnasty: oops...i may have forgot about sun java lol | 03:55 |
| Davy | i'll try that | 03:55 |
| greezmunkey | Guest66757: try iwconfig, anything? | 03:55 |
| mcarter | Ganymede, I will look into that, thanks | 03:55 |
| h00k | UbuntuJeff: cool. | 03:55 |
| enter_name | defrysk: ah okee dokee, thanks heaps, its got a stick figure drawing so it must be good | 03:55 |
| h00k | UbuntuJeff: and I know gnome-do should work, I'm using it now ;) | 03:55 |
| Guest66757 | Chak82 my media partition? Windows doesn't read ext3 natively | 03:56 |
| defrysk | enter_name, have fun understanding the power of *nix | 03:56 |
| onetinsoldier | justin22885: i told you how to never have to type sudo in a terminal for command line stuff. have you even tried it? or was i just ignored by you? | 03:56 |
| Guest66757 | Greezmunkey no I tried that already | 03:56 |
| UbuntuJeff | h00k, yeah but are you on openbox? | 03:56 |
| ridz16 | can someone please help me about removing older LINUX version of ubuntu? I see two on grub screen http://bit.ly/94KwEQ | 03:56 |
| chak82 | greezmunkey: iwconfig must be the solution, but if ubuntu doesnt see the device... | 03:56 |
| greezmunkey | Guest66757: Is the adapter usb? | 03:57 |
| enter_name | defrysk: lol thanks, but at the same time this isnt explaining why my netbook started using swap | 03:57 |
| Guest66757 | justin22885 I don't think linux is for you | 03:57 |
| Ganymede | mcarter, i just tried it and got a network interface called dummy0 in ifconfig -a, not sure what i can do with it yet | 03:57 |
| Guest66757 | Greezmunkey yes | 03:57 |
| Davy | shazbotmcnasty: is there a certain sun java that would be best? | 03:57 |
| greezmunkey | Guest66757: see what lsusb gives you... | 03:57 |
| effigy | h00k: remember me? keeps crashing when i try to transfer from the ipod touch :\ | 03:57 |
| chak82 | Guest66757: can you see the last url that i send to you? | 03:57 |
| jud | Hey guy's, just up dated karmic and now text, regardless of the application it's viewed in, appears broken up by pixels, the same colour as the background. Know why this is? | 03:57 |
| Davy | cuz i'm seeing a lot of different dl options | 03:57 |
| defrysk | enter_name, using swap is awkward | 03:57 |
| Guest66757 | Okay hold on I'm removing ndiswrapper and retrying | 03:57 |
| undecim | ridz16: Remove the software package that corresponds to the version you want to remove | 03:57 |
| Davy | unless i'm on the wrong page | 03:57 |
| mcarter | Ganymede, this works perfectly for what I need | 03:58 |
| Davy | lol | 03:58 |
| Davy | yeah | 03:58 |
| Davy | nm | 03:58 |
| GeekSquid | ridz16: that is just a kernel 17 megs total, not a complete ubuntu | 03:58 |
| Loshki | ridz16: well, you can remove the older one, but it's actually a good thing to an earlier version available, in case something goes horribly wrong with the version you're running... | 03:58 |
| mcarter | Ganymede, thanks a ton | 03:58 |
| enter_name | defrysk: i wouldnt think it would use swap until my ram is full, but ohwell, ill keep looking and reading, thanks for the link again | 03:58 |
| chak82 | Guest66757: there discuss a problem does looks like yours | 03:58 |
| shazbotmcnasty | Davy, 32bit or 64bit? | 03:58 |
| justin22885 | guest.. that is an idiotic thing for anyone to say | 03:58 |
| ridz16 | ah I see | 03:58 |
| Davy | 32 | 03:58 |
| Guest66757 | OMG chak82 lsusb shows it | 03:58 |
| justin22885 | linux isnt for me because im not paranoid of nonexistant viruses and hackers around every corner? | 03:58 |
| greezmunkey | Guest66757: I asked you to do that. | 03:59 |
| undecim | ridz16: yeah, like Loshki and GeekSquid pointed out. It's not that much space taken up, and its good to have an earlier version as a fallback | 03:59 |
| iflema | ridz16 there is only one installed.... there is the ewest and the last kernel.... just boot the newest... f the newest gives ya grief.... boot the last one wich did not.... and try the new one which did not....... | 03:59 |
| ridz16 | thanks for the info yall | 03:59 |
| IdleOne | justin22885: drop it now please. You also Guest66757 | 03:59 |
| Guest66757 | Oh greezmunkey sorry | 03:59 |
| onetinsoldier | no. because someone tells you how to not have to type sudo anymore, and you keep going on about it being an issue | 03:59 |
| jud | Hey guy's, just up dated karmic and now text, regardless of the application it's viewed in, appears broken up by pixels, the same colour as the background. ANYONE know why this is? | 03:59 |
| defrysk | enter_name, i have any swap usage on my lap , only explanation might be the amount of ram you have , considere a light weigt ubuntu bersion | 03:59 |
| shazbotmcnasty | Davy, http://goo.gl/yGUM | 03:59 |
| h00k | effigy: I don't know, there, if it gives you a specific error or errors, try filing a bug | 03:59 |
| Guest66757 | Idleone, I'm asking for help when is that considered wrong is this channel not meant to help? | 04:00 |
| greezmunkey | Guest66757: ok, so the system knows it's there - obviously it's a driver issue. | 04:00 |
| defrysk | *hardle any | 04:00 |
| IdleOne | Guest66757: I meant the dicussion about the password in linux | 04:00 |
| Guest66757 | Greezmunkey, any way to roll back the driver? | 04:00 |
| greezmunkey | Guest66757: It's your throwing stones at justin22885 that did it. | 04:00 |
| Guest66757 | Oh sorry idleone | 04:00 |
| evon | Nevermind everyone I figured it out | 04:00 |
| Cammy_ | Does anyone have *any* idea why my theme won't stick? | 04:01 |
| undecim | Cammy_: What do you mean won't stick? | 04:01 |
| justin22885 | doesnt anyone else find the constant passwords to be annoying and repetative? there are no viruses waiting for me, no ones trying to hack me, and if the police ever wanted to spy on my online activity theyd just deliver a warrant to my internet provider like they did in september | 04:01 |
| greezmunkey | Guest66757: The thing is, you shouldn't have been able to kill it by editing that file. But, it is ndwrapped, so just about anything is possible. | 04:01 |
| Cammy_ | Every time I boot up Lucid, my theme is reset to no theme. Same with nauilus | 04:02 |
| ridz16 | lol @ justin | 04:02 |
| onetinsoldier | laters to him | 04:02 |
| jud | Hey guy's, just up dated karmic and now text, regardless of the application it's viewed in, appears broken up by pixels, the same colour as the background. ANYONE know why this is? | 04:02 |
| dipu | shazbotmcnasty : installed opera ...audio works there | 04:02 |
| === blendmaster1024 is now known as PigeonCluster | ||
| Cammy_ | I have to go into Appearance every time I log in | 04:02 |
| ridz16 | why they sent a warrant? what were you doing? | 04:02 |
| Guest66757 | greezmunkey, I'm thinking of formating this partition backing up all my stuff and going to ext4 on lucid manually? Would this work | 04:02 |
| zetheroo | how do you share printers in Ubuntu? | 04:03 |
| greezmunkey | Guest66757: That's a bit extreme, don't you think? | 04:03 |
| undecim | Cammy_: Something is causing gnome-settings-daemon not to start then. | 04:04 |
| Loshki | Guest66757: it should work, but it's a lot of trouble for very little benefit... | 04:04 |
| Cammy_ | hmmmm | 04:04 |
| Guest66757 | Greezmunkey not really, my system is slow even with a gaming rig with an i7 extreme processor. | 04:04 |
| shazbotmcnasty | dipu, well that means it's firefox only, I would probably reinstall firefox | 04:04 |
| effigy | h00k: do you know if it would work to just copy the folders with mp3's in them after i mount the ipod? can i just put them back in that same folder after i clean the ipod? | 04:04 |
| dipu | shazbotmcnasty : sure thanks | 04:04 |
| Guest66757 | Loshki not much trouble, its just a media server | 04:04 |
| Cammy_ | but I see gnome-settings-daemon in System monitor | 04:04 |
| Cammy_ | So it is running | 04:04 |
| undecim | Cammy_: Yeah, it starts when you run appearance | 04:05 |
| jud | Hey guy's, just up dated karmic and now text, regardless of the application it's viewed in, appears broken up by pixels, the same colour as the background. ANYONE know why this is? | 04:05 |
| Loshki | Guest66757: not much benefit either. Personally, I avoid ext4... | 04:05 |
| roberto__ | anyone compile the AF9015 driver for 10.04 ? | 04:05 |
| Cammy_ | Ah! | 04:05 |
| Cammy_ | Hmmmm | 04:05 |
| Guest66757 | Loshki, why | 04:05 |
| undecim | Cammy_: Maybe as a workaround, you could add it to the startup apps | 04:05 |
| === homer is now known as Guest80798 | ||
| Cammy_ | Maybe I could add it to startup.... yes! | 04:05 |
| ridz16 | i find using Chromium (linux chrome) much better than firefox on Xubuntu, cuz it uses 10 Mb ram less memory | 04:05 |
| Cammy_ | Lemme try that, thanks undecim | 04:05 |
| undecim | Cammy_: When you log in it will take a second for the theme to set, but you won't have to do it manually | 04:05 |
| greezmunkey | Guest66757: you could try: rmmod ndiswrapper - and then modprobe ndiswrapper, to see if that wakes it up... | 04:06 |
| Cammy_ | Good enough for me! | 04:06 |
| Loshki | Guest66757: some people come here reporting strange things have happened with their ext4 partitions. It's unclear whether it's pilot error or not. But we *know* ext3 is rock solid, so... | 04:06 |
| ridz16 | ya like me, i was here last nite trying to fix my comp cuz it couldn't connetct | 04:06 |
| chak82 | greezmunkey: how he can remove the windows driver in the kernel? | 04:06 |
| ridz16 | now I'm must hanging out maybe I could learn a thing or two | 04:07 |
| roberto__ | or -- better yet, anyone know how to turn off the custom leave-channel messages in Konversation? | 04:07 |
| jud | Hey guy's, just up dated karmic and now text, regardless of the application it's viewed in, appears broken up by pixels, the same colour as the background. ANYONE know why this is? | 04:07 |
| roberto__ | I just got: [23:05] <-- FluffyMaster ha dejado este servidor (Quit: Q: What do you call a blind pre-historic animal? A: Diyathinkhesaurus. Q: What do you call a blind pre-historic animal with a dog? A: Diyathinkhesaurus Rex.). | 04:07 |
| Guest66757 | Loshki, very well on a percentage range how reliable is it? | 04:07 |
| tamale1 | I'm having a real problem with 10.04.. on my laptop, after several hours of normal behavior and performance, the machine becomes utterly unresponsive. The moue cursor still tracks, but I can't really click on anything or type anything, as it takes almost 30 seconds for my commands to have any effect. | 04:07 |
| tamale1 | I have to reboot | 04:08 |
| mkquist | am not able to make windows shares with lynx... | 04:08 |
| roberto__ | tamale1: what's "df -k" say ? | 04:08 |
| greezmunkey | chak82: ndsiwrapper (the way I understand it) allows you to run the win driver as a kernel module. rmmod detaches it from the kernel, modprobe attaches. If I am wrong, I'll look into it more. | 04:08 |
| roberto__ | tamale1: anything at 100%? | 04:08 |
| poenuosecr | is there a way to VNC to a computer on your own LAN without running a service that someone could hack into? | 04:08 |
| hololight | greezmunkey, yes, that is right | 04:09 |
| undecim | poenuosecr: Not really. You need to run a service to be able to receive connections. | 04:09 |
| greezmunkey | hololight: cool, I have managed to learn something here. | 04:09 |
| chak82 | greezmunkey: so, uninstalling and removing completely ndiswrapper must remove the win driver, right? | 04:09 |
| Guest66757 | Greezmunkey all config files need .conf, I uninstalled it | 04:09 |
| poenuosecr | undecim: even if it's on your own lan? | 04:09 |
| greezmunkey | poenuosecr: no | 04:09 |
| undecim | Well, someone would need to be on your lan to attempt to hack into it. | 04:10 |
| undecim | poenuosecr: Well, someone would need to be on your lan to attempt to hack into it. | 04:10 |
| GeekSquid | tamale1: when it happens do CTRL-ALT-F1 login and run top to see what is taking up your cpu cycles | 04:10 |
| roberto__ | poenuosecr: you mean a service that isn't open from the internet but is open within the lan? | 04:10 |
| greezmunkey | poenuosecr: the service sites there listening for incoming connections - no listener, no connection. | 04:10 |
| hololight | chak82: if you were to completely uninstall ndiswrapper, yes, the win driver would be gone | 04:10 |
| tamale1 | GeekSquid: it's not CPU, i think it's HDD IO | 04:10 |
| hololight | chak82: but there is also a way to remove the win driver from ndiswrapper, i forget the command though | 04:10 |
| undecim | poenuosecr: What I do with my HTPC, though is have SSH running, then log in, set the DISPLAY variable, then run x11vnc and connect | 04:10 |
| tamale1 | GeekSquid: what would've changed in that regard from 9.10 to 10.04 though? | 04:10 |
| chak82 | Guest66757: this is your solution. REMOVE COMPLETELY NDISWRAPPER | 04:10 |
| roberto__ | :D that poor guy can't possibly read all the responses :P | 04:10 |
| emes | after updating to lucid, when I open a gtk file dialog, the program hangs a good 15 seconds before displaying the dialog. what's wrong? | 04:11 |
| undecim | poenuosecr: That way, VNC isn't always listening, except right before I make the connection. | 04:11 |
| lucas-arg | hello, ive installed xubuntu-desktop, but i cant get xubuntus theme in gdm nor in xfce, how can i reconfigure them? | 04:11 |
| Guest66757 | Chak82 sudo apt-get remove ndiswrapper won't work? | 04:11 |
| poenuosecr | greezmunkey: I have another question. are you running a service when you're using bittorrent? | 04:11 |
| greezmunkey | hololight: udo rm -r /etc/ndiswrapper/ | 04:11 |
| greezmunkey | sudo rm -r /etc/modprobe.d/ndiswrapper | 04:11 |
| d0s4gw | I just installed 10.04 (amd 64 bit) and I am having issues with my ATI Radeon driver... anyone feel like helping me out? | 04:11 |
| greezmunkey | poenuosecr: kind of, yes | 04:11 |
| auk | anyone have issue with volume applet icon on gnome panel disappearing after upgrade to lucid? | 04:11 |
| poenuosecr | greezmunkey: what do you mean kind of? | 04:11 |
| undecim | auk: Add the indicator applet to your panel | 04:12 |
| Radio-l | why would two different Windows 7 loaders appear when I run update-grub? | 04:12 |
| chak82 | Guest66757: i maybe tryin with synaptic with the option "REMOVE COMPLETELY" | 04:12 |
| undecim | Radio-l: A recovery partition | 04:12 |
| Radio-l | they are found on /dev/sda1 and /dev/sda2 | 04:12 |
| greezmunkey | poenuosecr: it's only there when you run it. Traditional services start at boot. | 04:12 |
| hololight | Radio-l: win7 has some sort of chain loader for itself now | 04:12 |
| Radio-l | interesting, I thought I cleared it | 04:12 |
| lepine | Can someone explain what the screen 'install screen by default at login' is supposed to do? | 04:12 |
| roberto__ | is there a caching dns server package for ubuntu ? | 04:13 |
| lepine | I assumed that everytime I opened a terminal, screen would be there, but that doesn't seem to be the case | 04:13 |
| Radio-l | the laptop also has a set of Vista loaders and an 11gb partition set aside for that | 04:13 |
| auk | undecim: hmm very curious | 04:13 |
| lepine | or perhaps there's something wrong on my end | 04:13 |
| Radio-l | some kind of hidden recovery tool that toshiba uses I guess | 04:13 |
| lepine | I *did* log out and back in | 04:13 |
| wers | who's using Shutter on lucid? for some reason, I can't edit images with it anymore. "Edit" is grayed out | 04:13 |
| auk | there are two separate indicator/docking areas now? | 04:13 |
| ridz16 | I have 2 HDD, one of them has ubuntu 10, say I want to copy the O.S to the other HDD so I can boot on it as well, how do I go on doing that? | 04:13 |
| auk | one has the banshee, pidgin icons etc | 04:14 |
| undecim | auk: yup. It sucks IMHO, but it's not too bad | 04:14 |
| hololight | Radio-l: I had a HP with win7 and it was the same | 04:14 |
| hololight | actually I had 3.... two labled win 7 and one vista | 04:14 |
| undecim | auk: There may be a way to merge them, but I haven't looked into it yet | 04:14 |
| scap | Anyone know where I can find the listing of security patches that have been applied to various ubuntu distros? | 04:14 |
| scap | I need to find out if certain CVEs have been addressed | 04:14 |
| Guest66757 | Woot greezmunkey and chak82 I love you both haha! It works and thanks for everyone elses help now I can do it properly | 04:14 |
| whammo | can anybody recommend a browser that they can confirm is able to embed mplayer for flash videos? | 04:14 |
| onezero | I want to use my server as a media server, streaming movies and watching webtv. What do I need on top of ubuntu-server to run firefox to watch web-tv? | 04:14 |
| greezmunkey | Guest66757: what fixed it? | 04:14 |
| chak82 | Guest66757: does it works now? | 04:15 |
| Guest66757 | Hmmmm greezmunkey either the rm -r one or the mod probe | 04:15 |
| onezero | whammo: Is it important that it's imbedded, or would it be OK to have it opened in mplayer outside the browser? | 04:15 |
| greezmunkey | Guest66757: ha, there you go :) | 04:15 |
| Guest66757 | Chak82 well not wpa but hey! Now I can do it correctly yay | 04:15 |
| Sna4x81 | I'm trying to install ubuntu vi pxe. I successfully installed fine on one machine, but another boots then deadlocks before the install screen. Any input is appreciated. | 04:15 |
| effigy | anyone know if you can copy the music directory of an ipod touch (with all the random folders/filenames), reformat the ipod, then put the music back like that in the same folder? | 04:16 |
| Guest66757 | Now I hope I can get a server up and running in 3 hours tommrow :) | 04:16 |
| auk | undecim: yes i hated it when the they moved the volume icon into the notification area on karmic, cause i used to keep it in the far upper left corner for easy access | 04:16 |
| jzmg | is anyone else having a problem with nvidia drivers and more than 2 monitors without twinview? | 04:16 |
| whammo | onezero: well, if it can stream at least it does not need to be embedded, but I want mplayer for its ability to play nice with jack | 04:16 |
| chak82 | Guest66757: that is strange, normally, linksys supports wpa too | 04:16 |
| hellphyre | greezmunkey: yo | 04:16 |
| auk | undecim: but having to separate ones, with no clear distinction of purpose, is plain ridiculous | 04:16 |
| Guest66757 | Auk, do what I do bind f11 and f12 for volume | 04:16 |
| greezmunkey | Guest66757: You didn't try to reinstall the ndiswrapper at some point, did you - I mean before the last 30 min or so? | 04:16 |
| auk | *two separate ones | 04:16 |
| undecim | auk: Yeah. I also wish I could just use right-click on the rhythmbox icon like I'm used to... | 04:16 |
| Guest66757 | Greezmunkey no :/ | 04:16 |
| greezmunkey | hellphyre: ! hey! | 04:16 |
| virtuald | scap: http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-security/cve/ | 04:16 |
| Guest66757 | Okay I have to go guys | 04:16 |
| scap | virtuald: thanks | 04:17 |
| onezero | whammo: Then I suggest using firefox with MediaPlayerConnectivity extension. It forwards embedded media to a media player of your choice. Have you installed ubuntu-restricted-extras? | 04:17 |
| undecim | auk: Right-click now gets a panel menu :( | 04:17 |
| hellphyre | greezmunkey: samba hates me, haha | 04:17 |
| roberto__ | ridz16: you have 2 of the exact same drives? | 04:17 |
| auk | undecim: well i could swing the mouse to the corner and scroll, bring volume up or down | 04:17 |
| auk | sooo smooth | 04:17 |
| greezmunkey | Guest66757: doesn't much matter now, does it! | 04:17 |
| whammo | ooo thats sound interesting. and yes | 04:17 |
| Mean_admin | hey, I am looking for in-depth ressources (Books, articles,etc) to understand Ubuntu's inner workings! What recommend you, people of the channel ? | 04:17 |
| chak82 | Guest66757: ok | 04:17 |
| jzmg | Is there a way to make windows maximize to only one monitor when you have twinview enabled? | 04:17 |
| jud | Hey guy's, just up dated karmic and now text, regardless of the application it's viewed in, appears broken up by pixels, the same colour as the background. ANYONE know why this is? | 04:17 |
| greezmunkey | hellphyre: did you look through the links I sent you ln | 04:17 |
| * undecim wonders if the xfce volume applet would work well in gnome | 04:17 | |
| Cammy_ | ok, odd. | 04:17 |
| Guest66757 | Nope if I'm on tommrow ill tell you how it went | 04:17 |
| auk | undecim: are there any bug/feature requests i can vote for? | 04:17 |
| mcarter | How can I start a process and set limits on its real-memory and virtual memory? | 04:17 |
| ridz16 | roberto__ yes two 320 Gb | 04:18 |
| hellphyre | greezmunkey: yes but alot of the terminal commands are useless... point to bad locations from old versions of ubuntu i guess.. | 04:18 |
| whammo | onezero: so this extension is found browsing thourgh ff's add-ons? | 04:18 |
| roberto__ | Mean_admin: search "torrent ubuntu book" on google :) | 04:18 |

| greezmunkey | hellphyre: http://paste.ubuntu.com | 04:30 |

| JoshDreamland | Completes both of the examples I mentioned. | 04:31 |
| CloudMonkee | what's some desirable software on ubuntu, anyone? | 04:31 |

| nomad111 | hi, im trying to enable desktop effects on my 10.04 desktop. I previously installed proprietry nvidia drivers. when i select normal setting for visual effects. I see the following crop up in the terminal http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/kCHAJM9P. Has anyone seen this before? | 04:32 |
| CloudMonkee | gryllida, plus I actually like empathy a lot more :). | 04:32 |
| JoshDreamland | But not on my other box, which I've upgraded twice without success. | 04:32 |
| Gryllida | CloudMonkee, no idea, try sudo apt-get install pidgin | 04:32 |
| nomad111 | i know people running with intel cards get a similar issue. | 04:33 |
| Gryllida | CloudMonkee, I see | 04:33 |
| roberto__ | JoshDreamland: when you tab complete - you scan a database for executables that match if you are at the start of a command in bash. if you are after the start of a command, tab completion will search the filesystem instead. it never searches throgh the application for optional parameters because unix programs aren't written with any reflection | 04:33 |
| greezmunkey | hellphyre: ok, pretty much default, rename that one to smb.conf.old - ok | 04:33 |

| mkquist_ | anyone know the command to restart samba? | 04:35 |
| Madpilot | CloudMonkee, hmm. Still pretty open-ended there, I think... :) | 04:35 |
| hellphyre | greezmunkey: terminal to rename? im new to linux commands | 04:35 |
| nomad111 | mkquist, service smb restart | 04:35 |
| hellphyre | greezmunkey: wont let me rename with gui | 04:35 |
| mkquist_ | nomad111: what happened to /etc/init.d/samba restart? | 04:35 |
| nomad111 | same thing | 04:35 |
| CloudMonkee | madpilot, jeez just list some software you, personally, think is cool | 04:35 |
| roberto__ | JoshDreamland: you started out by saying that it never works. unix applications are absolutely not written with reflection, so if you have that tab completion someone wrote a custom bash plugin and hand picked application's and their parameters for completion for you .. I 'd guess | 04:35 |
| mkquist_ | nomad111: did not work | 04:36 |
| wers | what tool can you recommend to convert svg to jpeg? | 04:36 |
| nomad111 | mkquist, try your one then | 04:36 |
| nomad111 | oh actually | 04:36 |
| nomad111 | what about service smbd restart | 04:36 |

| Madpilot | CloudMonkee, OK. Inkscape, if you're into graphic design. DOSbox, so you can run 15 year old computer games and realize they're still pretty good. (which is what I'm doing in between paying attention to IRC right now...) | 04:37 |

| RxDx | i have 3gb on my notebook, should I use ubuntu 10.04 32 or 64bits? | 04:38 |
| Madpilot | CloudMonkee, Inkscape has a far better UI than GIMP, true. | 04:38 |
| JoshDreamland | Jordan_U: Pidgin stopped scrolling, missed your reply. It's installed, but isn't working correctly. It only completes the first command. | 04:38 |
| Jordan_U | CloudMonkee: xmoto is addictive. | 04:38 |
| virtuald | joshdreamland: open .bashrc in your home directory with a text editor | 04:38 |
| Madpilot | recent GIMP releases have been getting far better, though. Far more usable, that is. | 04:38 |
| CloudMonkee | rxdx, 32 bit only lets you use 4GB of ram while i believe 64 bit lets you use 16gb+ | 04:38 |
| JoshDreamland | virtuald: No such file. | 04:39 |
| Loshki | RxDx: no need to use 64 bit with 3G of ram, and 32 bit is generally more stable... | 04:39 |
| RxDx | CloudMonkee, i have just 3gb... i heard that 64bits has some bugs | 04:39 |

| greezmunkey | hellphyre: save that to /etc/samba/smb.conf | 04:39 |

| CloudMonkee | rxdx, 64 bit is for the future as well. You don't want to have to reinstall later on do you. Just use the best. There is no real reason to actually stick with 32 bit while 64 bit is better and does the exact same thing plus more. | 04:41 |

| dot | angelia, how are you accessing the internet? | 04:52 |
| dark-knight | JoshDreamland nope it doesn't respond to anything but turning it off. | 04:52 |
| dot | or oh I mean I used something else the software center | 04:52 |
| FloodBot1 | dot: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 04:52 |
| dot | FloodBot1: what for? | 04:52 |
| melanie | what the best video player for lucid...codec and all????? | 04:52 |
| IdleOne | angelia: this channel (#ubuntu) is for support questions like you just asked yes | 04:52 |
| JoshDreamland | dark-knight: Including ctrl-alt-f2? | 04:52 |
| LinuxHack3r1 | GeekSquid: any progress? | 04:52 |
| Mechdave | mdik, because Ubuntu doesn't have a firewall up and running standard | 04:52 |
| dark-knight | melanie i prefer vlc | 04:52 |
| silare | Does anyone know how to get Intel 3945 working with NetworkMAnager? :/ | 04:52 |
| angelia | dot: what do you mean? dsl | 04:52 |
| GeekSquid | LinuxHack3r: I am using android-vnc-viewer right now and it is updating rightly | 04:52 |
| mdik | albertolempira: sometimes they are called mpxxxxx, when they are coming from the mplayer-plugin | 04:53 |
| JoshDreamland | dark-knight: and ctrl-alt-delete? | 04:53 |
| mdik | or similar when coming from other plugins, albertolempira | 04:53 |
| mdik | Mechdave: because you dont need one | 04:53 |
| dark-knight | JoshDreamland yes, nothing happens when trying to go to a virtual terminal or ctrl alt delete. it does not respond to anything, it just sits at the black screen, although my wireless card shows it is working, and the little lights on the bottom show it is thinking, but i see/can't react with anything | 04:53 |
| auk | how can i tell how much of a partition is used/free? | 04:53 |
| lordjodi | hey | 04:53 |
| melanie | k | 04:53 |
| mdik | Mechdave, angelia: no running services means no need for a firewall | 04:53 |
| Mechdave | mdik, you are crazy not to run a firewall of some type or other | 04:53 |
| GeekSquid | LinuxHack3r: how may colors do you have it set to ... i am using 64 colors, seems to work well | 04:53 |
| angelia | mdik: what do you mean by running services? | 04:54 |
| mdik | Mechdave: get real | 04:54 |
| roberto__ | wow | 04:54 |
| Mechdave | mdik, angelia I advise you both to run one as there are many ways to get in to a box from the outside and create havoc | 04:54 |
| roberto__ | the stock market fell 9% today | 04:54 |
| mdik | angelia: like a web-server or something in that direction. but you'd had to install one and configure one to listen to the outside-world to be in danger | 04:54 |
| melanie | what the best video player for lucid...codec and all, more please | 04:54 |
| Maleko | how do you add an iptables rule to particular position? | 04:54 |
| mdik | Mechdave, angelia: not if there are no services running. and there are none out-of-the-box | 04:55 |
| hanasaki | using xrdp - the "s" key is mapped not to S but brings up the menu to logout/restart/shutdown | 04:55 |
| dark-knight | JoshDreamland yes, nothing happens when trying to go to a virtual terminal or ctrl alt delete. it does not respond to anything, it just sits at the black screen, although my wireless card shows it is working, and the little lights on the bottom show it is thinking, but i see/can't react with anything | 04:55 |
| phinfinity | how do you list the available hard disk drives and partition from shell | 04:55 |
| onezero | melanie: have you installed ubuntu-restricted-extras? | 04:55 |
| angelia | mdik: yeah I'm not running a web-server or anything like that.. | 04:55 |
| mdik | Mechdave: read for a change | 04:55 |
| naples_guy | i have firefox 3.0. how can i upgrade? 'sudo apt-get upgrade firefox?' | 04:55 |
| albertolempira | mdik nope there's no mpxxxx file... do you know any other way to record a streming file? 'cause i've been trying for two hours now with no success. | 04:55 |
| mdik | albertolempira: no, sorry | 04:55 |
| JoshDreamland | dark-knight: Who's your card manufacturer? | 04:55 |
| melanie | yes | 04:56 |
| auk | phinfinity: u can do sudo fdisk -l | 04:56 |
| xangua | naples_guy: what version of ubuntu¿ | 04:56 |
| phinfinity | what can i do if i want the drive labels?? | 04:56 |
| Mechdave | mdik, I don't appreciate your tone | 04:56 |
| mkquist | albertolempira: a streaming file? | 04:56 |
| auk | phinfinity: what do you mean by 'available' though? | 04:56 |
| naples_guy | 8.10 | 04:56 |
| albertolempira | mdik well, i suppose i'll look for some answer on google | 04:56 |
| onezero | naples_guy: A 'sudo apt-get install' will update to the newest version in the repositories | 04:56 |
| melanie | onezero : yes but i have problem whit codec!!! | 04:56 |
| mkquist | albertolempira: like a radio stream? | 04:56 |
| dark-knight | the card says dlink airplus, but its not an issue with the card, i'd assume its someting to do with X | 04:56 |
| phinfinity | fdisk -l is ok but i want to know the drive labels as well | 04:56 |
| albertolempira | mkquist yeap, exactly! | 04:56 |
| melanie | what the best video player for lucid...codec and all, more please... | 04:56 |
| angelia | mdik, mechdave: thx | 04:56 |
| mkquist | albertolempira: do you have the stream location? | 04:57 |
| onezero | melanie: vlc always works, but haven't got the best performance. apt-get i | 04:57 |
| LinuxHack3r1 | GeekSquid: any progress? | 04:57 |
| GeekSquid | LinuxHack3r: delay of a second or 2, both checkboxes on android-vnc-viewer should be unchecked and colors set to 64 for best results | 04:57 |
| mdik | Mechdave: with all due respect, please consider reading one of the many testamonies against personal firewalls you could and can find on the web | 04:57 |
| albertolempira | mkquist yeap | 04:57 |
| xangua | naples_guy: try 'firefox-stable PPA' or 'Ubuntuzilla' | 04:57 |
| onezero | melanie: *apt-get it | 04:57 |
| mkquist | albertolempira: i use streamtuner with success to record streams, its got a button for it actually | 04:57 |
| dark-knight | Joshdreamland the card says dlink, although i don't believe the card to be affecting anything, because the problem is with it going to the black screen not the internet. | 04:57 |
| GeekSquid | LinuxHack3r1: sorry look at my posts above | 04:57 |
| mdik | np | 04:57 |
| onetinsoldier | melanie: have you tried winff? | 04:57 |
| onetinsoldier | !info winff | 04:57 |
| JoshDreamland | dark-knight: I meant your graphics card. | 04:58 |
| ubottu | winff (source: winff): graphical video and audio batch converter using ffmpeg. In component universe, is extra. Version 1.2.0-1ubuntu2 (lucid), package size 1416 kB, installed size 4496 kB | 04:58 |
| phinfinity | How do you get the drive label (for say /dev/sda1 ) | 04:58 |
| albertolempira | mkquist hm... i think i've heard of it. Thanks i'll give it a try right away! | 04:58 |
| melanie | il try!! | 04:58 |
| mkquist | albertolempira: g/l | 04:58 |
| melanie | .. | 04:58 |
| Mechdave | mdik, I firmly believe in a layered approach to system security, one of these layers is a firewall. iptables is used on linux to provide the firewalling | 04:58 |
| dark-knight | joshdreamland: ummmm i have no idea, i have a dell inspiron 1100, whats the command for terminal, isn't it like Ls or something? | 04:58 |
| JoshDreamland | I can't tell that from terminal, really. Well, try lsmod | grep intel | 04:59 |
| Mechdave | mdik, I use the firewall in my dsl modem to stop any incoming traffic that has not been initiated from my network | 04:59 |
| JoshDreamland | if it prints intel-agp and you don't know what kind of card you have, it's fine | 04:59 |
| mdik | Mechdave: sure, in a corporate environment. just for your personal protection a firewall has more chances adding insecurity by bugs in the firewall itself | 04:59 |
| phinfinity | How do you get the drive label (for say /dev/sda1 ) | 04:59 |
| mdik | phinfinity: ls /dev/disks/by-* ? | 05:00 |
| dark-knight | Joshdreamland: lsmod |grep intel pulls up nothing relevant to the graphics card | 05:00 |
| Cuervo | How compatible is the asus 1005pr on ubuntu? Are there any deal breaking issues? | 05:00 |
| JoshDreamland | dark-knight: how sure are you? | 05:00 |
| JoshDreamland | dark-knight: does lsmod | grep intel-agp print anything? | 05:00 |
| LinuxHack3r1 | GeekSquid: trying now... | 05:01 |
| Jordan_U | Radio-b: One is probably an OEM recovery partition. | 05:01 |
| melanie | thank to all! | 05:01 |
| Mechdave | mdik, and having ran a server for quite a while and having daily penetration attempts on it. there are very few bugs in iptables that I know about and if you keep your system updated all is good | 05:01 |
| Davy | So...i need help | 05:02 |
| Jordan_U | Radio-b: "sudo grub-install /dev/sda" (where /dev/sda is the drive you want grub installed to) | 05:02 |
| Davy | my new update of ubuntu won't boot correctly | 05:02 |
| Loshki | Mechdave: I like to run behind a cheap NAT router, for added protection... | 05:02 |
| dark-knight | joshdreamland: pretty sure, i just looked over it again and the only thing i could see relevant is the video which it just says i915 | 05:02 |
| phinfinity | mdik the command just gives a lot of numbers and text No labels except for 3 and i hav around 7 drives | 05:02 |
| Mechdave | mdik, I see having a machine without any kind of penetration protection is really bad | 05:02 |
| Davy | sometimes i get my desktop...but not the "applications, places, system" bar popping up | 05:02 |
| Davy | other times I get that bar popping up...but my desktop doesn't show up | 05:03 |
| Mechdave | Loshki, that is basically what I do at the moment | 05:03 |
| angelia | why are some people grayed out on the right and some people arent, and what does the whois button do? it seems to do nothing | 05:03 |
| mdik | Mechdave: when you know, what your doing: fine. if you dont know how to configure a firewall, then most likely there is no point in having one cause youre just having your box and thats it | 05:03 |
| dark-knight | davy: you need to run the command in terminal to start the panel when that happens. | 05:03 |
| LinuxHack3r1 | ; | 05:03 |
| mdik | phinfinity: then maybe ls /dev/disks/by-id? come on, be creative | 05:03 |
| albertolempira | mkquist g/l? what that means? and sorry for the dumb question... | 05:03 |
| Gryllida | angelia, search for whois button output in network tab or in a separate one | 05:03 |
| Davy | dark-knight: when the applications bar pops up? | 05:03 |
| Loshki | Mechdave: it's cheap insurance... | 05:03 |
| Mechdave | Loshki, I agree whole heartedly | 05:04 |
| Davy | what happens if only the desktop shows up...it does that most of the time | 05:04 |
| naples_guy | can i UPGRADE intrepid to jaunty, then jaunty to karmic, then karmic to lucid? | 05:04 |
| Gryllida | naples_guy yes | 05:04 |
| mdik | Mechdave: there is no point in a firewall if your services are configured correctly | 05:04 |
| dot | that is good too | 05:04 |
| dark-knight | davy: didn't you just say the applications bar doesn't pop up? | 05:04 |
| IdleOne | angelia: the ones that are grey are "away" | 05:04 |
| JoshDreamland | dark-knight: if it prints anything at all when you ask for intel-agp it means it's running some sort of intel chip | 05:04 |
| dot | Poof! | 05:04 |
| red2kic | naples_guy: Meh. Do a clean installation if you can. Unless you're not technology savvy. | 05:04 |
| JoshDreamland | and I don't have to bother walking you through the horrible process that is NVidia setup | 05:04 |
| angelia | gryllida: how do I do that? | 05:04 |
| Davy | dark-knight: yes. the bar doesn't pop up, the desktop does...so then how do i get to the terminal screen...don't know if there is a shortcut | 05:05 |
| phinfinity | mdik by-id has something like "ata-ST3802110AS_4LS4VA3G-part2 scsi-SATA_ST3802110AS_4LS4VA3G-part2" and besides i have checked each drive under /dev/disks/* | 05:05 |
| Loshki | naples_guy: yes, but it's a lot of work, and each time you upgrade, something can go wrong. I'd rather do a from-scratch install of lucid... | 05:05 |
| naples_guy | red2kic, i have lots of large video files, and do not have a place to back them up atm | 05:05 |
| Davy | dark-knight: also what command do i need to type | 05:05 |
| mdik | phinfinity: looks like a label to me | 05:05 |
| red2kic | naples_guy: Upgrade away. :) In fact, everybody should always have some kind of backup medium. :) | 05:05 |
| dark-knight | davy: yes there is a shorcut to make it pop back up, not too sure what it is for ubuntu as im on xubuntu which is xfce4-panel, google it and i guarantee you'd find it | 05:05 |
| naples_guy | ideally i would much rather do a fresh install, but i have a hundred gigs to save somewhere, or lose them | 05:05 |
| mdik | dont know, what youre about to do, though (phinfinity) | 05:05 |
| JoshDreamland | Davy: gnome-panel | 05:06 |
| Davy | okay | 05:06 |
| Davy | JoshDreamland: what? | 05:06 |
| dark-knight | joshdreamland: i just did lspci and im pretty sure this is my graphics card, this is what it printed 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82845G/GL[Brookdale-G]/GE Chipset Integrated Graphics Device (rev 03) | 05:06 |
| Gryllida | angelia, try to type /whois Gryllida in the box where you usually type to send thingsto chat; then have many clicks around until you find the line Gryllida <~chatzilla@unaffiliated/... | 05:06 |
| JoshDreamland | Davy: It behooves you to run it from alt-f2 instead | 05:06 |
| Mechdave | mdik, if angelina had stuck around long enough I could have taken her through it all and got a personal firewall going for her. Now if she goes out there with no firewall and suddenly finds her machine compromised she will say "This linux is no good... I got hacked", I don't want a new user to have an adverse experience because their machine was not set up correctly for what they were doing | 05:06 |
| theadmin | Gryllida: " ~chatzilla@unaffiliated/unsure" | 05:06 |
| IdleOne | angelia: this will be a helpful read http://xchat-gnome.navi.cx/?page_id=5 | 05:06 |
| JoshDreamland | Davy: Running gnome-panel will create the bar you're looking for | 05:06 |
| albertolempira | mkquist ok, i'm recording now, i think. I clicked "Record" and now a terminal windows called "streamripper" showed. It's recording i think since the size of the file is increasing but how do i stop it, and where is it saved? sorry if i'm asking too much... | 05:06 |
| Gryllida | angelia, that line can appear either right in the chat , or in a separate tab, just do many clicks and find | 05:06 |
| Mechdave | mdik, that is my vopinion | 05:06 |
| mkquist_ | cant seem to set up windows shares anymore with 10.4 | 05:06 |
| LinuxHack3r1 | GeekSquid: Nope...it's still displaing a frame that doesn't change and it's old...not even showing anything near what my screen looks like...64bit colors | 05:07 |
| angelia | mechdave: I'm still here | 05:07 |
| UbuntuJeff | Could someone help me I have no sound and my card isn't showing up in pulse audio under hardware. | 05:07 |
| JoshDreamland | dark-knight: So it's a PCI-enabled intel card. Terrific. | 05:07 |
| phinfinity | mdik oops sorry by-label has my what i need i just remembered i have labelled only 3 drives. Thanks!!! | 05:07 |
| mkquist_ | or share among my linux boxes either | 05:07 |
| JoshDreamland | oh, I lied | 05:07 |
| LinuxHack3r1 | GeekSquid: The mouse clicks...position, sending text all works..but when the physical screen changes...android client stays the same.... | 05:07 |
| dark-knight | joshdreamland what exactly does that mean? | 05:07 |
| JoshDreamland | No, that's fine | 05:07 |
| Davy | JoshDreamland: how do i get to gnome-panels? | 05:07 |
| Mechdave | angelia, ok now how are you accessing the internet? through a dsl connection? | 05:07 |
| JoshDreamland | Your card is integrated, as I suspected | 05:07 |
| angelia | gryllida thx i'll favorite it so I can read it, thank you | 05:07 |
| theadmin | Davy: They are a part of GNOME Desktop | 05:07 |
| angelia | mechdave: yes | 05:07 |
| JoshDreamland | It means nothing can go wrong, really. Are you running Linux? | 05:08 |
| dark-knight | davy: load terminal and type gnome-panel it'll load up | 05:08 |
| JoshDreamland | rather | 05:08 |
| LinuxHack3r1 | ALSO! When I move my mouse...the mouse icon on my phone moves...??? | 05:08 |
| JoshDreamland | Lucid | 05:08 |
| dark-knight | joshdreamland yes i'm running xubuntu 9.10 karmic | 05:08 |
| JoshDreamland | That was the most rhetorical typo I've ever made. I feel unclean. | 05:08 |
| constarr | Anyone wanna help me with an error? | 05:08 |
| theadmin | JoshDreamland: :D | 05:08 |
| angelia | mechdave: I totally missed everything that was going on, because this is super spam and I'm not used to it yet | 05:08 |
| theadmin | constarr: What kind of? | 05:08 |
| JoshDreamland | I'm not sure what that means for this problem. It's easy to blame lucid when things stop working... | 05:09 |
| Gryllida | constarr, sure, just ask | 05:09 |
| constarr | loop: can't delete device /dev/loop0: Device or resource busy | 05:09 |
| constarr | *** ./create_multipartboot.sh FAILED at line 145 *** | 05:09 |
| phinfinity | mdik /dev/disk/by-label has a list of the labels i need. how do i know which device is which label?? i.e is a particular label /dev/sda1 or something else like that | 05:09 |
| dark-knight | joshdreamland hahaha well we can't blame lucid in this situation. | 05:09 |
| JoshDreamland | I suppose we can just blame Lucid for Karmic's problems. Haha. | 05:09 |
| Mechdave | angelia, no consequence, I can take you through a quick firewall setup, but first I want to make sure your dsl modem has a firewall on it | 05:09 |
| constarr | I'm trying to run this script | 05:09 |
| JoshDreamland | Has any other version of Xubuntu worked for you? | 05:09 |
| constarr | http://connie.slackware.com/~alien/tools/usbinstall/13.0/ | 05:09 |
| theadmin | constarr: It tries to use a mounted partition. | 05:09 |
| theadmin | constarr: And can't succeed. | 05:09 |
| * Tzfardaya looks around | 05:10 | |
| angelia | mechdave: it should yeah, I mean I think it came with one, let me check | 05:10 |
| dark-knight | joshdreamland: haha well thanks for your help. 9.10 is the only version i've tried, and it works, just sometimes it goes black, other times it will work flawlessly, also when i leave it idle, it will freeze and produce the same black screen effect. | 05:10 |
| constarr | it's trying to install slackware to my usb drive, would I need to unmount it first? | 05:10 |
| JoshDreamland | dark-knight: I guess if we want to see what -does- work, you could try running it from with quiet3 | 05:10 |
| === NeaLMaN is now known as NeaLMaNaway | ||
| mdik | phinfinity: if you do: ls -la /dev/disks/by-label it should be listed where the devices are linked to | 05:10 |
| === xcfdj_ is now known as Se7en- | ||
| Mechdave | angelia, because if your dsl modem has a firewall on it and is configured properly there is really no need to run one on the desktop as well. | 05:10 |
| theadmin | constarr: Huh. Well, according to this here... maybe... but slackware... We don't support that here. | 05:10 |
| mdik | phinfinity: or which devices those links link to, to be correct | 05:10 |
| JoshDreamland | dark-knight: just add quiet3 to your parameters, and change splash to nosplash | 05:10 |
| constarr | It's not a slackware issue, lol | 05:11 |
| phinfinity | mdik Thanks a lot it works! | 05:11 |
| angelia | mechdave: I don't know if it had a firewall, it's a qwest modem that they sent me.. | 05:11 |
| constarr | It's the script | 05:11 |
| JoshDreamland | in fact, it may be changing quiet to quiet3 instead | 05:11 |
| theadmin | constarr: But it's a slackware script, no? ;D | 05:11 |
| angelia | mechdave: has* | 05:11 |
| mdik | phinfinity: no problemo | 05:11 |
| constarr | nope | 05:11 |
| Mechdave | angelia, what is the make and model? | 05:11 |
| dark-knight | joshdreamland: im not following, where is this quiet3 you speak of? | 05:11 |
| theadmin | Oh well, g2g. | 05:11 |
| angelia | mechdave: WPS PK5000 is what it says on the modem | 05:11 |
| JoshDreamland | dark-knight: in GRUB, before it boots, press F6 to edit the boot params. Change quiet to quiet3 and splash to nosplash. | 05:11 |
| JoshDreamland | It should boot in a terminal. | 05:12 |
| Mechdave | angelia, just a min, shall google it | 05:12 |
| === Leonopteryx is now known as Companion-Cube | ||
| JoshDreamland | A shell, rather, but I'm not feeling all vocabish tonight. | 05:12 |
| dark-knight | joshdreamland: alright what would be acheieved from booting in terminal? what exactly would that achieve? | 05:12 |
| iceman21ad | any one else having issues with software sources not being accessed right | 05:12 |
| JoshDreamland | dark-knight: It'll show us that the OS works if it doesn't need to start graphics, for one | 05:12 |
| Mechdave | angelia, are you using the wireless function? | 05:12 |
| JoshDreamland | dark-knight: it'll also give you access to the computer, of course. | 05:13 |
| angelia | mechdave: well no I'm not personally using it, my 6 year old downstairs uses it on her laptop but I'm plugged in | 05:13 |
| dark-knight | joshdreamland: well like it said, its unpredicatable, sometimes it goes black othertimes it doesn't, so i won't really know if it took effect. | 05:13 |
| Loshki | JoshDreamland: what does quiet3 do? | 05:13 |
| roberto__ | whoever suggested installing ubuntu-restricted-extras -- thank you :) | 05:14 |
| angelia | mechdave: it is set up if that's what you're asking | 05:14 |
| Mechdave | angelia, Ok, mow are you connecting to the modem via a cable? | 05:14 |
| angelia | mechdave: yea | 05:14 |
| Mechdave | angelia, right, your ISP set it up for you? | 05:14 |
| angelia | mechdave: I don't know what you mean by that | 05:14 |
| Mechdave | angelia, did your internet provider supply you with the modem? | 05:15 |
| angelia | mechdave: ah yeah | 05:15 |
| angelia | mechdave: and I didn't read it right, and I set it up | 05:15 |
| Mechdave | angelia, and you put in passwords and etc... | 05:16 |
| angelia | mechdave: yes :P | 05:16 |
| angelia | mechdave: my whatever it's called.. the where you can look for wireless people, I even figured out how to hide that | 05:16 |
| angelia | mechdave: oh right ssid I think? | 05:16 |
| Mechdave | angelia, does your daughter connect to the modem wireless? | 05:16 |
| angelia | mechdave: yea | 05:17 |
| profxavier | is there a channel dedicated to assistance with web design/development ? | 05:17 |
| profxavier | i am currently in #html and not much help there | 05:17 |
| Mechdave | angelia, Have you set up WEP security on the modem? | 05:17 |
| angelia | mechdave: yea | 05:17 |
| Davy | so I'm back and it didn't work...unless i did it wrong...but my panel still doesn't show up | 05:17 |
| albertolempira | mkquist ok, i'm recording now, i think. I clicked "Record" and now a terminal windows called "streamripper" showed. It's recording i think since the size of the file is increasing but how do i stop it, and where is it saved? sorry if i'm asking too much... | 05:17 |
| Mechdave | angelia, Good :) | 05:17 |
| dark-knight | joshdreamland: thanks for the help, for now ill just leave it, but if it becomes a big enough problem ill follow what you said | 05:18 |
| AnnaZ | [06:06:47] <Mechdave> mdik, if angelina had stuck around long enough I could have taken her through it all and got a personal firewall going for her. Now if she goes out there with no firewall and suddenly finds her machine compromised she will say "This linux is no good... I got hacked", I don't want a new user to have an adverse experience because their machine was not set up correctly for what | 05:18 |
| angelia | mechdave: well no I was wrong | 05:18 |
| AnnaZ | paranoia. | 05:18 |
| angelia | mechdave: it says WPA/WPA2 | 05:18 |
| === harry is now known as Guest28052 | ||
| JoshDreamland | well, all right | 05:18 |
| Davy | JoshDreamland: i did the alt-f2 thing...but my panel still hasn't shown up | 05:18 |
| angelia | mechdave: not WEP | 05:18 |
| JoshDreamland | Hey, does anyone know of a package containing Human for Lucid? | 05:18 |
| Mechdave | angelia, that is better than WEP | 05:18 |
| dark-knight | davy when you hit alt f2 and typed "gnome-panel" what happened? | 05:18 |
| angelia | mechdave: oh good | 05:18 |
| JoshDreamland | Davy: are you using xubuntu? | 05:18 |
| Loshki | AnnaZ: one man's paranoia is another man's prudent practice... | 05:18 |
| angelia | mechdave: what's the difference? | 05:19 |
| Davy | no...regular ubuntu | 05:19 |
| Davy | dark-knight: nothing | 05:19 |
| === xcfdj_ is now known as Se7en- | ||
| mdik | AnnaZ: (: | 05:19 |
| xangua | JoshDreamland: search human in the package manager | 05:19 |
| Davy | JoshDreamland: i just updated to the new 10.14 i believe | 05:19 |
| dark-knight | did you try going back to your desktop to see if it took effect davy? (alt-f7) | 05:19 |
| JoshDreamland | Davy: Of Ubuntu or Xubuntu? | 05:20 |
| JoshDreamland | or, heaven forbid, Kubuntu | 05:20 |
| angelia | mechdave: and do I need to set up this firewall? I went ahead and have it running now the firestarter on the panel, it's double protection right, so can I just keep it? or does it not make a difference? | 05:20 |
| Mechdave | AnnaZ, usually these days we access the internet through a NAT gateway, usually this is enough to stop the nasties, but sometimes ppl have a direct connection to the internet (like a 3G mobile dongle) and then you need a firewall | 05:20 |
| dark-knight | joshdreamland: he said ubuntu | 05:20 |
| AnnaZ | the internet side of a dsl modem is pretty good too, by the virtue of NAT routing function alone. active firewall or not. | 05:20 |
| JoshDreamland | Interesting... | 05:20 |
| Davy | lol JoshDreamland i don't think its Kubuntu...my guess would be Of Ubuntu | 05:20 |
| Davy | whatever the Koala thing was | 05:21 |
| Davy | 9.10 | 05:21 |
| JoshDreamland | Davy: No error when you ran gnome-panel? | 05:21 |
| Mechdave | angelia, sounds like you may not need one, but you are quite able to set up one on your computer | 05:21 |
| Davy | JoshDreamland: no | 05:21 |
| dark-knight | davy at your desktop right click and hit terminal then type gnome-panel and tell me what happens. | 05:21 |
| Mechdave | angelia, should not affect anything badly | 05:21 |
| AnnaZ | Mechdave: or just monitor yourself for open ports once in a while -.- | 05:21 |
| angelia | mechdave: k i'll just leave it running I set it to hide on the panel so.. | 05:22 |
| Davy | dark-knight: not getting an option for terminal | 05:22 |
| Mechdave | AnnaZ, well yeah, then if something goes wrong it is like shutting the stable door after the horse has bolted | 05:22 |
| Davy | it says...create a new folder and crap like that | 05:22 |
| Mechdave | angelia, make sure you configure firestarter to only allow established and related connections. The firestarter website is pretty good at taking you through configuration for memory :) | 05:23 |
| angelia | mechdave: I can't just leave it at default? gah | 05:23 |
| Mechdave | angelia, do you have parental controls for your daughter? | 05:24 |
| dark-knight | davy: try right clicking then following the applications to accesories then to terminal | 05:24 |
| angelia | mechdave: why | 05:24 |
| reya276 | Does anyone know if there is an application available in the repositories to mask your IP Address | 05:24 |
| Davy | dark-knight: then in terminal type gnome-panel? | 05:24 |
| Mechdave | angelia, you can leave it at default, I just don't know what the settings are | 05:24 |
| dark-knight | davy: yes | 05:24 |
| Gryllida | reya276, on IRC? or in general? | 05:24 |
| mkquist_ | how do you restart samba in 10.4 64bit? | 05:24 |
| reya276 | Gryllida: in general | 05:25 |
| Mechdave | angelia, because there is a big nasty world on the internet and there are many things a kid should not see | 05:25 |
| Davy | dark-knight: i feel like a nub...but which folder is it in...or hwo do i get there | 05:25 |
| Mechdave | angelia, I know my daughter will be censored when she gets internet access | 05:25 |
| angelia | mechdave: yeah she's good, she just plays like nick at night games and disney games etc, she doesn't know how to google and stuff yet | 05:25 |
| Gryllida | reya276, you mean you want to connect through a proxy? | 05:26 |
| AnnaZ | .oO(or she doesn't tell you) | 05:26 |
| dark-knight | davy: you don't need to get into any folder or anything, just type gnome-panel and it should pop up | 05:26 |
| powertool08 | mkquist_: sudo service samba restart | 05:26 |
| dark-knight | davy: just launch terminal and type it in | 05:26 |
| Mechdave | angelia, Good :) | 05:26 |
| ActionParsnip | yo yo yo | 05:26 |
| reya276 | Gryllida: is that what you would use to mask an ip address | 05:27 |
| Davy | dark-knight: gotcha | 05:27 |
| dark-knight | davy: any luck? | 05:27 |

| mkquist_ | powertool08: unrecognized service samba? | 05:27 |
| Davy | Cannot register the panel shell: there is already one running. | 05:27 |
| angelia | mechdave: when she learns to read and write better, I'll be worried. Right now I just set up a bunch of i.e. links on her desktop she uses vista | 05:27 |
| maco | arjOsSari_: stop that | 05:27 |
| Davy | so...it looks like its supposed to be there | 05:28 |
| powertool08 | mkquist_: Strange, is samba installed? | 05:28 |
| Davy | but just isnt showing up | 05:28 |
| Mechdave | angelia, sounds like you are pretty secure with WPA and a good modem with a firewall, you should be right :) | 05:28 |
| mkquist_ | powertool08: several times... lol | 05:28 |
| angelia | mechdave: thank you | 05:28 |
| wsuthomas | I am having problem with $PATH, any ideas why is deferent from one ssh to another http://paste.pocoo.org/show/210933/ | 05:28 |
| Mechdave | angelia, Yeah, good stuff | 05:28 |
| powertool08 | mkquist_: did you use sudo? | 05:28 |
| mkquist_ | powertool08: frustrating that i cannot get shares going | 05:28 |
| mkquist_ | powertool08: yep | 05:28 |
| Mechdave | angelia, No worries, any time :) | 05:28 |
| Davy | dark-knight: any other suggestions? | 05:28 |
| mdik | Mechdave: no portscanning? | 05:28 |
| Mechdave | mdik, Nope | 05:28 |
| reya276 | Gryllida: there is an actual Network Proxy app install in the system, never noticed that before | 05:29 |
| powertool08 | mkquist_: Try sudo /etc/init.d/samba stop, then same command with start | 05:29 |
| Davy | or ... is there anyway to redo the update | 05:29 |
| dark-knight | davy: hmmm nope that should pull it up if you are running just normal ubuntu. i would google your problem for further knowledge. | 05:29 |
| Davy | like..."down"date | 05:29 |
| Mechdave | mdik, no need to | 05:29 |
| mkquist_ | powertool08: thats the one im used to and it doesnt work either | 05:29 |
| wsuthomas | is there a room for ubuntu server | 05:29 |
| mdik | i mean, like, how can you be sure if everything is set up ok - especially with a vista running - when you didnt check the ports? | 05:29 |
| mkquist_ | powertool08: maybe remove and install from the c/l then... | 05:29 |
| Planet_x | does anyone know of a good GPS device that will work on Ubuntu easy and with GPSDrive, kismet etc? | 05:29 |
| ActionParsnip | wsuthomas: #ubuntu-server | 05:29 |
| powertool08 | mkquist_: ok. | 05:29 |
| wildbat_laptop | anyone know how do i make a dev like /dev/zero? let say /dev/one? | 05:29 |

| Mechdave | mdik, because she has a NAT modem running WPA | 05:30 |
| AnnaZ | wsuthomas: if you have a few hundred megabytes free, i suppose there is. </sarcasm> | 05:30 |
| maco | wildbat_laptop: write a kernel module | 05:30 |
| zetheroo | since upgrading to Lucid my hard drive does a heck of a lot of grinding away ... especially when I use Virtual box ... my whole system begins to lock up and the hard drive is working away ... | 05:30 |
| wildbat_laptop | maco, any tips or link to such info? | 05:30 |
| Mechdave | mdik, and NAT only lets established and related traffic through | 05:30 |
| ActionParsnip | zetheroo: when it starts working, read: dmesg | tail -n 15 | 05:30 |
| reya276 | Gryllida: is there a manual on how to use this app anywhere? | 05:30 |
| maco | wildbat_laptop: the book Linux Device Drivers 3 is released under creative commons | 05:30 |
| dark-knight | davy: sorry i couldn't be of more help, but thats the only solution i've got. | 05:31 |
| hanasaki | how can xming connect to a login for ubuntu gnome? | 05:31 |
| mdik | Mechdave: she could have turned it off! | 05:31 |
| ZykoticK9 | maco, "write a kernel module" like that's no-big-thing - Maybe for you, but for the rest of us... :) | 05:31 |
| maco | ZykoticK9: ive never written a kernel module ;-) | 05:32 |
| Mechdave | mdik, yeah, but if you turn off NAT there is no internet access | 05:32 |
| wildbat_laptop | maco, got it ^^ thanks ~ | 05:32 |
| IdleOne | ZykoticK9: maco did give a book title that is FREE so you can learn :P | 05:32 |
| === Guest6486 is now known as Semitones | ||
| maco | ZykoticK9: however if wildbat_laptop wants a /dev/one to spit out 1s instead of /dev/zero that spits out 0s... yeah they'd need to write a new module | 05:32 |

| Mechdave | mdik, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_address_translation | 05:34 |
| ZykoticK9 | maco, I'm not questioning your logic over what is needed, or the fact that your book suggestion was probably right on the mark - just though it was funny to see "write a kernel module" as an answer :) | 05:34 |
| ActionParsnip | zetheroo: use alt+f2 and run a terminal, and wait for it to go, have the command ready to go ;) | 05:34 |

| zetheroo | ActionParsnip: dunno if it makes a diff | 05:34 |
| neodfw | anyone good with giplet | 05:34 |
| maco | wildbat_laptop: by the way that book is written from the 2.6.8 perspective so a few years old. Essential Linux Device Drivers is a more current (but afaik, not free) book | 05:35 |
| ActionParsnip | zetheroo: i'd ask in #vbox | 05:35 |

| aSSogueroZen_SX | someone here knows how to add new cars in torcs? | 05:35 |
| zetheroo | ActionParsnip: the other times it acts like this is when installing anything ... it takes SO long to install stuff ... like the hard drive is just labouring away .... | 05:36 |
| zetheroo | ActionParsnip: is this something to do with journaling? | 05:37 |
| mkquist_ | is anyone else sharing with windows clients in 10.4? | 05:37 |
| Loshki | ZykoticK9: maco: yes, it was funny. But true... | 05:38 |
| zetheroo | mkquist_: nope ... but using Samba to share with Linux clients ... so very similar | 05:38 |
| mkquist_ | zetheroo: ill settle for that at this point... | 05:38 |
| mkquist_ | zetheroo: cant get the shares to be 'seen' | 05:38 |
| zetheroo | mkquist_: what have you done so far? | 05:38 |
| mkquist_ | zetheroo: did you use the 'personal sharing' thing? | 05:38 |
| mkquist_ | zetheroo: i tried setting up using 'shares-admin' initially | 05:39 |
| red2kic | zetheroo: If you want things done right, it's usually the longest route. | 05:39 |
| zetheroo | red2kic: uhm ... what? | 05:39 |
| mkquist_ | zetheroo: worked before the shares admin | 05:39 |
| mkquist_ | zetheroo: when i try 'service samba' it says unrecognized service samba - but it's been installed and reinstalled | 05:40 |
| === ubuntu is now known as dhikr | ||
| red2kic | zetheroo: My comment on your "Using Windows For Samba Printing" :o | 05:40 |

| zetheroo | mkquist_: I know ... same here ... :) ... things change though, and not always for the better .. | 05:41 |
| mkquist_ | zetheroo: aint that the truth... lol | 05:41 |
| zetheroo | mkquist_: sudo service smbd start/stop | 05:42 |
| wildbat_laptop | Loshki, ^^ thanks scanning on the Linux Device Drivers 3 that maco said | 05:42 |
| mkquist_ | zetheroo: ok now that works, thank you for that | 05:42 |
| zetheroo | mkquist_: I have not gotten the "restart" command to work | 05:42 |
| zetheroo | mkquist_: and I take it you have looked over your smb.conf file and made any needed alterations? | 05:42 |
| Loshki | wildbat_laptop: it would be a lot of work to write your first device driver. Is there some problem we can help you solve another way? | 05:43 |
| mkquist_ | zetheroo: whats wierd is that there is no option to set up a windows share, just unix NFS | 05:43 |
| zetheroo | sudo apt-get install samba | 05:43 |
| zetheroo | mkquist_: ^^ | 05:44 |
| wildbat_laptop | Loshki, i am good ~ just i am done writing my drives with \xFF ,just try to learn about it ^^ the should be /dev/one XD | 05:44 |
| gh0zt | I just lost my guest additions in VirtualBox after doing a 10.04 guest update anyone else experienced this or know of a fix? | 05:44 |
| Mechdave | mkquist, have you installed samba? | 05:45 |
| mkquist_ | zetheroo: the only thing available is printing | 05:45 |
| zetheroo | mkquist_: after that you should be able to right-click a folder and select "Sharing Option" | 05:45 |
| deathinohio | is it ok to ask a question here | 05:46 |
| zetheroo | mkquist_: have you installed SAMBA? If not install it through Synaptic (System > Administration > Synaptic Package Manager) or with the command I posted above: sudo apt-get install samba | 05:46 |
| mkquist_ | zetheroo: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/7uALJyfq | 05:46 |
| mkquist_ | zetheroo: this is the result | 05:46 |
| onetinsoldier | deathinohio: yes | 05:46 |
| zetheroo | mkquist_: ok, there a couple way you can solve this | 05:47 |
| deathinohio | alright... i'm having a problem with grub. It will not boot without pressing enter, in other words there is no timeout. it just sits there | 05:47 |
| Mechdave | mkquist, zetheroo sounds like you are trying to share a root oflder on an attached drive | 05:47 |
| Mechdave | folder | 05:47 |
| deathinohio | grub2 btw | 05:47 |
| deathinohio | ubuntu 9.10 | 05:48 |
| mkquist_ | Mechdave: not root folder, just other drives with my network | 05:48 |
| mkquist_ | zetheroo: yes | 05:48 |
| Mechdave | mkquist, yeah, /media/Some_Drive | 05:49 |
| wyatt_earp | greets ... has anyone had any success with 10.04 dual booting on a MBP? keep getting stuck at the grub_puts_ error | 05:49 |
| deathinohio | ive googled all over for a solution to this | 05:49 |
| mkquist_ | Mechdave: right, so this is a permissions problem? | 05:49 |
| Mechdave | mkquist, sorry my terminology not quite 100% correct | 05:49 |
| ZykoticK9 | gh0zt, are you using Ubuntu as a host? If you are using the OSE (not directly from Oracle), you can install the guest additions "inside" the Lucid VM "sudo apt-get install virtualbox-ose-guest-x11" but will NOT work for the PUEL (from Oracle) version. | 05:49 |
| Mechdave | mkquist, config problem with samba, zetheroo seems to know what is going on :) | 05:50 |
| mkquist_ | zetheroo: any thoughts? | 05:50 |
| stevecam | in nautilus where is the enter address bar | 05:50 |
| ZykoticK9 | stevecam, press the / key | 05:50 |
| gh0zt | ZykoticK9 i'm running a Windows 7 host and 10.04 guest, think i might have fixed it - wasn't mounting properly | 05:50 |
| stevecam | ZykoticK9, fantastic | 05:51 |
| ZykoticK9 | gh0zt, if you have further issues try asking in #vbox (think there are issues with Win7 and Guest additions) | 05:51 |
| stevecam | gh0zt, shouldn't it be the other way round? | 05:51 |
| remote | Hello | 05:51 |
| stevecam | gh0zt, 10.04 should be the host and windows 7 should be the guest OS ;-) | 05:52 |
| gh0zt | stevecam if dell gave me win 7 disks with my shiny new xps 9000 i probably would | 05:52 |
| zetheroo | mkquist_: one sec | 05:52 |
| gh0zt | stevecam they don't give disks anymore | 05:52 |
| stevecam | you should still have a recovery partition that you could make a copy of | 05:53 |
| wildbat_laptop | gh0zt, DL from the net then ~ | 05:53 |
| ratshell | Can someone help me with a pulse audio problem? | 05:53 |
| gh0zt | stevecam i have that but assumed it wouldn't work.. but now you mention it, i am gonna give it a try :) | 05:53 |

| Prez00 | ok, guys, I am running out of ideas for what to do about compiz and window borders. compiz seems to load but i am left without window borders on my x61, intel 965 graphics. i checked the window decoration plugin and it's got right line there... | 05:54 |
| stevecam | im kinda lazy, i would just make a backup of /dev/sda and bz2 it | 05:54 |
| Prez00 | any pointers? | 05:55 |
| mkquist_ | ok, so it's just the ntfs folder thats causing a problem, wow shouldve really looked into that more... = p | 05:55 |
| ratshell | Prez00, what line is there? | 05:55 |
| mae_tae_ | people, i had block youtube.com in squid but i want to allow www.youtube.com/user/caraga , is this possible? how will i do it | 05:55 |
| Prez00 | ratshell, /usr/bin/compiz-decorator | 05:55 |
| Mechdave | zetheroo, got it, add this to the [global] section of the smb.conf file "usershare owner only = false" | 05:55 |
| freezway | i can't click in flash | 05:56 |
| Mechdave | zetheroo, then restart samba | 05:56 |
| ratshell | Prez00, yeah that is the right line, try /usr/bin/compiz-decorator --replace | 05:56 |
| zetheroo | Mechdave: yes sorry .. on the phone | 05:56 |
| zetheroo | Mechdave: but you got it :) | 05:56 |
| ZykoticK9 | freezway, are you on 64bit? are you using flash from repository? | 05:56 |
| Mechdave | zetheroo, sorry mate, thought you were working on it :) | 05:56 |
| ratshell | Prez00, just put that line in and then uncheck the window decoration and check it again | 05:57 |
| _ganymede | hello anyone know of using audio jack as oscilloscope??? any help appreciated or xp with doing such a thing? | 05:57 |
| freezway | ZykoticK9, yes. and yes. | 05:57 |
| ZykoticK9 | freezway, see http://sites.google.com/site/alucidfs/how-i-do/clicking-in-flash-not-working | 05:57 |
| zetheroo | Mechdave: no absolutely cool ;) ... glad you got it | 05:57 |
| deathinohio | grub will not timeout boot | 05:57 |
| zetheroo | mkquist_: you seeing the above? | 05:57 |
| deathinohio | just sits there | 05:57 |
| deathinohio | forcing me to press enter | 05:57 |
| Mandrew | how do i install une de on my netbook from gnome de? | 05:57 |
| freezway | ZykoticK9, that looks like it does something with 32 bit? | 05:58 |
| deathinohio | any ideas? | 05:58 |
| Mechdave | zetheroo, I was googling and then I read the error meassage again... and there it was... the solution :) | 05:58 |
| ZykoticK9 | freezway, on 64bit if you install flash from repo it's using the 32bit wrapped version - thus that fix. | 05:58 |
| mae_tae_ | anybody could help me regarding squid, it seems that people in squid were sleeping | 05:58 |
| jose1 | can anybody help me i cant play my cd movie,it saying cant read from resource.any help | 05:58 |
| Prez00 | ratshell, nothin' it does nothing.. | 05:58 |
| zetheroo | mkquist_: sudo gedit /etc/samba/smb.conf .. anywhere in the GLOBAL section paste the line "usershare owner only = false" (without the quotes) and restart smbd | 05:59 |
| ZykoticK9 | jose1, CD or DVD? | 05:59 |
| ratshell | Prez00, only other guess I have is try using emerald window manager instead of the compiz one | 05:59 |
| greezmunkey | Mechdave: I missed the samba issue that your fix solves, brief explain pls. | 05:59 |

| ZykoticK9 | jose1, see http://sites.google.com/site/alucidfs/how-i-do/enable-dvd-video-playback for installing css | 05:59 |
| Prez00 | ratshell, got it installed, tried emerald --replace as well | 05:59 |
| ZykoticK9 | freezway, glad to help | 05:59 |
| zetheroo | Mechdave: I just got printer sharing working after weeks of issues and searching for an answer :P ... | 05:59 |
| ratshell | Prez00, do you have a theme picked in the emerald manager? | 05:59 |
| Prez00 | ratshell, still no borders.. | 05:59 |
| SingAlong | I connected my phone at /dev/ttyACM0 and when i disconnect it and connect it again it doesnt connect again. I have to restart the comp to connect it. My quick guess is that /dev/ttyACM0 gets blocked. Any idea on how to solve this? | 06:00 |
| jose1 | k | 06:00 |
| Prez00 | ratshell, i think i tired to pick theme and it closes the emerald manager | 06:00 |
| wyatt_earp | has anyone else hit the "grub_puts_" error in 10.04? | 06:00 |
| greezmunkey | SingAlong: lock file? | 06:00 |
| Mandrew | how do i install ubuntu netbook edition desktop environment through the terminal? | 06:00 |
| ratshell | Prez00, thinking | 06:00 |
| SingAlong | greezmunkey: ah! how do i unlock it? | 06:00 |
| ZykoticK9 | Prez00, try "metacity --replace" to get metacity boarder, then try switching back with "compiz --replace" -- just testing really, not a solution | 06:00 |
| undecim | Is there some way to make the netbook launcher not take up my whole desktop? | 06:01 |
| ZykoticK9 | !emerald > Prez00 | 06:01 |
| ubottu | Prez00, please see my private message | 06:01 |
| Prez00 | metacity replace works perfect, i get my borders | 06:01 |
| SingAlong | greezmunkey: I tried deleting the file after doing lsusb. I figured that the phone was connected at /dev/bus/usb/003/004 and i deleted it. but still its not connecting | 06:01 |
| ratshell | Prez00, your using a nvidia card right? | 06:01 |
| Mechdave | greezmunkey, mkquist was having a problem with sharing a folder he (?) doesn't own. The fix is to put "usershare owner only = false" in the global section of the smb.conf file. This then allows someone to share a non owned directory... Not too safe for a multi user system, but not so bad for a desktop system | 06:01 |
| ZykoticK9 | Prez00, and when you try switching back? | 06:01 |
| Mechdave | zetheroo, yeah, samba can be a real pig to configure | 06:01 |
| greezmunkey | SingAlong: It was a thought, you could poke around in /var/lock for a file with the name of your program. | 06:01 |
| Prez00 | ratshell, intel 965 on lenovo x61 upgrade from karmic, where compiz worked fine | 06:02 |
| mkquist_ | zetheroo: does nothing | 06:02 |
| Prez00 | ZykoticK9, i get no borders :-) | 06:02 |
| Mechdave | mkquist, did you restart the samba daemon? | 06:02 |
| greezmunkey | Mechdave: oh, ok - thought it may be something like that, thanks. | 06:02 |
| ratshell | Prez00, look at this link has something about same problem your having no window borders, compiz or emerald. An exception was thrown by the type initializer for Tomboy.TomboyDBus ---> System.Exception: U | 06:02 |
| zetheroo | Mechdave: not just Samba ... but Cups too | 06:02 |
| ratshell | Prez00, sorry wrong paste lol. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=983544 | 06:02 |
| Prez00 | ratshell, i can do glxgears and compiz-check says all ok | 06:02 |
| Mechdave | zetheroo, Oooohhh... double whammy :) | 06:02 |
| SingAlong | greezmunkey: do i just edit the file? | 06:03 |
| greezmunkey | Mechdave: zetheroo as in shared printer?/ | 06:03 |
| ratshell | Prez00, it sounds like your xorg.conf needs to be tweaked, read that post it says what to do. | 06:03 |
| zetheroo | mkquist_: I would log off and back on again ... or even reboot ... and then you can try to add yourself as a user of the samba group | 06:03 |
| greezmunkey | SingAlong: did you find one? | 06:03 |
| Mechdave | greezmunkey, yep | 06:03 |
| zetheroo | greezmunkey:: yes | 06:03 |
| Schmitty | buntunation | 06:03 |
| chewbranca | what's the general consensus on 10.04? | 06:03 |
| SingAlong | greezmunkey: ah no. i'm on windows have to boot back into ubuntu. | 06:03 |
| chewbranca | stable enough to upgrade to? | 06:03 |
| Mechdave | zetheroo, did you end up sharing with a win machine? | 06:03 |
| PreZ | OK. On my kubuntu system, I have the generic-pae kernel installed, and the system is 32-bit but has 4gb ram in it. free still only shows 2771mb. WTF is going on? | 06:04 |
| SingAlong | greezmunkey: do i have to just add my program or command into that file? | 06:04 |
| mkquist_ | zetheroo: well, maybe it did something afterall, working now, except for one ntfs drive... i can live with that for now | 06:04 |
| zetheroo | Mechdave: no, all Linux here ... and its working via CUPS not SAMBA ... and its completely automatic once its setup right | 06:04 |
| Schmitty | Prez i don't see a problem | 06:04 |
| mkquist_ | zetheroo: funny tried that earlier, but maybe i just had to reassign the shares, unchecked and reshared them, works now | 06:04 |
| mkquist_ | zetheroo: thanks much | 06:04 |
| zetheroo | mkquist_: so your sharing your folders? .. if you enable Guest access it makes life a lot easier too | 06:05 |
| Mechdave | zetheroo, CUPS is really good and stable once you get it working, cups + samba for win --> unix printer sucks tho!! | 06:05 |
| mkquist_ | zetheroo: did that and thats when it worked, just had to tell it to use file browser... | 06:05 |
| PreZ | Schmitty, you mean 'it should owrk, I don't know why it's not'? or do you mean 'what's your problem?' If the latter, my problem is the system not detecting or addressing 1.3gb of my ram. | 06:05 |
| chewbranca | no one has any thoughts on 10.03? | 06:05 |
| chewbranca | errr 10.04? | 06:05 |
| deathinohio | help | 06:05 |
| mkquist_ | zetheroo: works, and ill take that thought, thanks again for you time | 06:05 |
| deathinohio | help computa | 06:05 |
| zetheroo | mkquist_: no worries .. cheers | 06:05 |
| Schmitty | PreZ: ah, I thought you ment 2.7g available... what happens when you issue a cat /proc/meminfo | 06:06 |
| Mechdave | mkquist, with that modification to smb.conf, your system may be able share system files too, just so long as you are aware of that :) | 06:06 |
| zetheroo | does anyone know how to change the cartridge in an Epson printer in Ubuntu? that is without the software suite that positions the head so you have access to the cartridges .... :P | 06:07 |
| _Snark | so.. previously i've had troubles with 10.04 on a fakeraid setup, so i've given up and gone back to 9.10 which partitions fine.. but.. for some reason doesn't seem to successfully install the boot loader :| | 06:07 |
| jose1 | zykotick9 it still dont work | 06:07 |
| Mechdave | mkquist, it would not be good if you could share /etc/passwd if you know what I mean :) | 06:07 |
| PreZ | Schmitty, it shows memtotal = 2837612kb | 06:07 |
| Prez00 | ratshell, applied tweaks... rebooting... | 06:07 |
| ratshell | zetheroo, stick your hand in the printer and force it over, it won't break it just don't push to hard | 06:07 |
| PreZ | as I said, I know I have 4gb ram in this box | 06:07 |
| ZykoticK9 | jose1, don't know what to suggest then, sorry. Good luck man. | 06:07 |
| ratshell | Prez00, good luck | 06:07 |
| Prez00 | ratshell, we'll see how it goes | 06:07 |
| brontosaurusrex | zetheroo: there is a key combination on the printer itself? | 06:07 |
| jose1 | yup | 06:07 |
| PreZ | And I'm using the generic-pae kernel | 06:07 |
| zetheroo | ratshell: gulp .. ok | 06:07 |
| Schmitty | PreZ: open a terminal and type 'cat /proc/meminfo' without the ' | 06:08 |
| ratshell | zetheroo, I have done it a few times on my printers never broke it, but if its not bugging don't FORCE it..just kind of push it lol, it might be locked in place some do that | 06:08 |

| greezmunkey | SingAlong: no, no - a lock file is generated by programs (that require them) to prevent other instances of the same program from corrupting memory space in use while that program is running. There are other reasons for lock files, but say a program the requires a lock file - creates the file then crashes. If you try to run that program again, it will see that lock file present and refuse to run. It could explain what you are running into, that's all. | 06:10 |

| liquidmeson | deathinohio: best sticking with grub, else an older version of it. although you say only 1os, http://art.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=8827695 | 06:37 |
| ratshell | deathinohio, I know, but I actually like pulseaudio lol | 06:37 |
| deathinohio | wyatt_earp, yes, it will not timeout and then boot, it just sits there | 06:37 |

| qwm | greezmunkey: but it's frustrating me a lot.. my ubuntu experience had been very pleasant ever since i switched from slackware about two years ago. (i got too lazy for that one in the end.) | 06:37 |
| Radio-l | qwm: anything in dmesg? | 06:38 |
| liquidmeson | deathinohio: second to last post | 06:38 |
| om3n5150 | that's ironic. | 06:38 |
| andrewfree | Mechdave: http://paste2.org/p/815235 | 06:38 |
| greezmunkey | qwm: friends don't let friends slack | 06:39 |
| deathinohio | liquidmeson, will that work for me even though i do not dual boot | 06:39 |
| qwm | Radio-l: nothing that draws my attention.. | 06:39 |
| wyatt_earp | deathinohio: the word i'm getting from the #grub channel is to do a "grub-install /dev/sda" and cause that to suceed | 06:39 |
| wyatt_earp | however, i'd make sure you've got some backups and a liveCD around incase it killifies the world | 06:40 |
| liquidmeson | deathinohio: try wayatt first, however the link should either help or do nothing in your case | 06:40 |
| deathinohio | yeah its not going to matter, its a fresh install | 06:40 |
| deathinohio | thanks guys | 06:40 |
| Mechdave | andrewfree, have a look at this --> http://paste2.org/p/815244 , it disables the modules that you had enabled, we shall enable them all one by one and see what happens | 06:40 |

| gadolinio | hi | 06:41 |
| korium | hi | 06:41 |
| luckymurali | Im getting an error of "ssh: connect to host 192.168.1.107 port 22: Connection refused" | 06:41 |
| greezmunkey | qwm: so, what's your immediate concern? | 06:41 |
| ratshell | deathinohio, if i got rid of pulse audio would I still be able to run multiple programs with alsa and that? like watch youtube video sametime listen to music etc? | 06:41 |
| mikepq2008 | Hello everyone, could someone direct me to a room where I can get some help on a couple book reports I need to write? | 06:41 |
| luckymurali | how do I open the port 22 permanatly | 06:41 |
| khloris | im running karmic, and firefox just stopped opening for me. any idea how to fix this issue? it will start to open but then just stops | 06:42 |
| VinceN | Good Morning Folks, I have an interesting problem I was wondering if anyone had run across before. I want to Sync my Notes program on my iPOD with Ubuntu One and Tomboy. Can it be done? | 06:42 |
| Mechdave | luckymurali, means the port on the host is not open for listening | 06:42 |
| luckymurali | Mechdave,yes, how do I open the port | 06:42 |
| qwm | greezmunkey: hard to say which problem is more troubling than the other. :( | 06:42 |
| gadolinio | khloris: does it also happen with other user accounts? | 06:42 |
| khloris | i only have the one | 06:42 |
| deathinohio | ratshell, yes, but ubuntu gets mad if u get rid of pulseaudio | 06:42 |
| VinceN | khloris: Did you check the System Monitor to see if maybe it was already loaded but stuck? You may need to kill Firefox and then try to load it agian. | 06:42 |
| gadolinio | i'd try creating a new one, and see if the same thing happens | 06:43 |

| Cloaky8x | ext4' | 06:43 |
| Mechdave | your machine not behind a firewall? | 06:43 |
| Mechdave | luckymurali, your machine not behind a firewall? | 06:43 |
| deathinohio | Cloaky8x, you can do some amazing things with dd | 06:44 |
| Mechdave | luckymurali, and (silly question), have you installed the ssh server? | 06:44 |
| liquidmeson | luckymurali:does your server have open ssh installed | 06:44 |
| liquidmeson | :p | 06:44 |
| gadolinio | khloris: VinceN is right. If you're talking about something that is happening now, and not stg that happen on a regular basis | 06:44 |
| luckymurali | I installed openssh server?? | 06:44 |
| luckymurali | I installed openssh | 06:45 |
| wers | liquidmeson, thanks. tried openoffice presentation but it cant open pdf files | 06:45 |
| Mechdave | luckymurali, netstat -an | grep "LISTEN" to see what ports are open on the server | 06:45 |
| luckymurali | Mechdave, ok | 06:45 |
| luckymurali | I do now | 06:45 |
| newmy51 | Would this be the proper place to ask for hard drive mounting assistance? | 06:45 |
| Mechdave | luckymurali, that will tell you if port 22 is open and listening, it may be that the port is open but a firewall is stopping it | 06:46 |
| khloris | Im checking the sys monitor, and im not seeing any of the mozilla processes. I also can't install any programs or open help. | 06:46 |
| Mechdave | andrewfree, how did you go? | 06:46 |
| liquidmeson | wers: my bad read it wrong, not sure if the default pdf reader does fading :/ | 06:46 |
| phillipsjk | Cloaky8x: if you just deleted the entry in the partition table, you can try re-creating it with fdick (the version they tell people top avoid due to lack of hand-holding) | 06:46 |
| Fudge | hi guys, questionabout uptime loads. i have an intel q6600 quad core 2.4ghz. my oads always round 2.4 and im not doing anythign taxxing nore does top report any high cpu usage processes. anyone be able to tell me if that is a fine load for a quadcore? | 06:47 |

| ubottu | newmy51: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 06:47 |
| gadolinio | khloris: you can't install any programs with synapti, you mean?? | 06:47 |
| andrewfree | Mechdave: same error, thats not the issue I guess | 06:47 |
| Cloaky8x | phillipsjk: It was a RAID1 and I seperated the partitions, so now Im just figuring out what to do, meh thx for the direction | 06:47 |
| Mechdave | andrewfree, that is odd... brb | 06:47 |
| Mechdave | andrewfree, ok put the file back the way it was then and I shall search for more!! | 06:48 |

| om3n5150 | So I have this problem with my BIOS (i think) that makes my battery randomly(and rapidly) switch between charging and on battery. It's cross OS, so I think it's BIOS.

| newmy51 | The drive is USBed. Was expecting it to appear on the desktop until I came to discover that native windows partitions don't communicate with ubuntu or most any linux build without a little extra nudging. | 06:55 |
| liquidmeson | om3n5150, cut the wire connecting to the led after opening the monitor up | 06:56 |
| newmy51 | It's the nudging I'm having trouble with. | 06:56 |

| liquidmeson | type?brand? | 06:57 |

| * newmy51 scratches his head | 06:59 | |
| deathinohio | newmy51, you can use dd to make an image of the disk | 06:59 |
| deathinohio | but its the raw data | 06:59 |
| liquidmeson | classic: uninstall plymouth | 07:00 |
| phillipsjk | Cloaky8x, I don't think a RAID changes much. If the information you deleted was predictable, you can in theory re-create it. (though the mention of DD by the other person is now making more sense.) | 07:00 |
| brayn | I've tried restarting it and did some googleing. I've tried doing killall telepathy-butterfly but no luck | 07:00 |
| Mechdave | luckymurali, ok, are you using a linux machine to connect to your ssh server? | 07:00 |
| Classic | liquidmeson, whats plymouth? | 07:00 |
| deathinohio | newmy51, are u using some kind of usb adapter to ide/sata | 07:00 |
| newmy51 | deathinohio: would rather treat it as removable media I can copy and paste from. don't need more than one session's worth of access to it. | 07:00 |
| Classic | login screen? | 07:00 |
| newmy51 | deathinohio: yes. | 07:00 |
| deathinohio | ahhh.. umm.. tryin to remember how i did that | 07:00 |
| liquidmeson | not sure if that would work? anybody? plymouth is the new boot screen (manager) | 07:00 |
| Classic | liquidmeson, the problem is i cant see ttys either, i assume its same resolution as during boot | 07:01 |
| luckymurali | Mechdave ,yes | 07:01 |
| newmy51 | mount -t ntfs dev/hda1 /win/dir | 07:01 |
| newmy51 | something to that effect | 07:01 |
| deathinohio | newmy51, ubuntu is really finicky with those adapters | 07:02 |
| greezmunkey | liquidmeson: What about hashed messages during shut down, like the console definition is buggered and doesn't know where the left edge of the display is. | 07:02 |
| Mechdave | luckymurali, ok on your client install nmap sudo apt-get install nmap | 07:02 |
| rocket16 | I suppose, the 10.04 Network-Manager is better than the 9.10 One. Has there been any major improvement in terms of PPP? | 07:02 |
| luckymurali | ok | 07:02 |
| rocket16 | Or, is it still better to use Gnome-ppp? | 07:02 |
| deathinohio | newmy51, how broken is the drive? | 07:03 |
| econdudeawesome | Howdy! I have UNE 10.04. I was curious if there was any way to unlock the panel to make changes beyond changing the session | 07:03 |

| newmy51 | deathinohio: not broken | 07:03 |
| luckymurali | only on client I need to install | 07:03 |
| luckymurali | or onthe ssh server machine | 07:03 |
| deathinohio | ahh i see | 07:03 |
| newmy51 | deathinohio: just out of the tower it was in | 07:03 |
| Classic | newmy51, is it recognized in bios? | 07:03 |
| newmy51 | Classic: not sure | 07:03 |
| Classic | i had that problem | 07:03 |
| deathinohio | yeah i was just about to ask that | 07:03 |
| newmy51 | How would I check? | 07:03 |
| brayn | any ideas ? | 07:03 |
| deathinohio | it will say USB and then drive info in the BIOS | 07:04 |
| liquidmeson | classic: greezmunkey: there is a way to force vga mode in /etc/x11 somewhere i think | 07:04 |
| newmy51 | If BIOS means essentially the same thing here as it does on windows machines, then most likely yes. I got a prompt upon restart that there were errors on the hard drive. I know it wasn't the drive that ubuntu's on. | 07:04 |
| liquidmeson | classic greezmunkey that mode works on pretty much any monitor | 07:04 |
| newmy51 | The machine itself sees it. It's solely a software issue | 07:04 |
| Classic | newmy51, well, go to BIOS and see if it is recognized in disks or somewhere there, if it is recognized than u have to fix it in ubuntu, if its not recognized in bios, than pull it out and remove a bridging pin from your hdd. that should fix it | 07:05 |
| Classic | liquidmeson, ye, but where... thats the key | 07:05 |
| newmy51 | enter bios setup with an f- key and check there? | 07:05 |
| liquidmeson | classic greezmunkey in the grub 2 settings i think there is also an option to start the kernel at a specific res | 07:05 |
| Classic | liquidmeson, i have a widescreen laptop here, so i had this problem before, just cant remember how i fixed it | 07:06 |
| Classic | lol | 07:06 |
| greezmunkey | liquidmeson: the messages I'm talking about are from processes shutting down - and seen after X11 quits and before power down. | 07:06 |

| econdudeawesome | NemesisD -- I typically allocate 25 GB, and then use the rest for other partitions (windows if needed/data) | 07:07 |
| Mechdave | luckymurali, install nmap on the client that you want to connect to your server with | 07:07 |
| Classic | newmy51, beats me my friend... | 07:07 |
| econdudeawesome | NemesisD there is no particular need for a swap partition--you can create a swap file fairly easily | 07:07 |
| hellphyre | greezmunkey: netbiosname is ny username loggin? | 07:07 |
| newmy51 | Classic: ! and I thought I'd reached the Mount Sinai of Ubuntu knowledge. oh well | 07:08 |
| deathinohio | newmy51, it might just be a matter of finding what dev it is and then mounting it | 07:08 |
| Classic | if its recognized in bios than there is no reason that it wont be recognized in ubuntu, just wont mount automatically, but u still would see it under PLACES | 07:08 |
| greezmunkey | hellphyre: no, that's the name that the server is known as on smb network | 07:08 |
| newmy51 | where is PLACES | 07:08 |
| NemesisD | econdudeawesome: um 25gb? thats not very much | 07:08 |
| Classic | lol, mount everest of learning | 07:08 |
| hellphyre | oh | 07:08 |
| NemesisD | wouldn't the home dir use most of the linux drive? | 07:08 |
| newmy51 | uh nvm | 07:08 |
| Mechdave | econdudeawesome, NemesisD I usually allocate roughly the same swap size as RAM in my machine, I have never seen my swap used yet :) | 07:08 |
| newmy51 | got it | 07:08 |
| greezmunkey | hellphyre: one of them that is. | 07:08 |
| Classic | is it there? | 07:08 |
| NemesisD | i've got 320gb to work with | 07:09 |
| deathinohio | newmy51, did u check Disk Utility under Administration | 07:09 |
| hellphyre | greezmunkey: so that would be the windows server name? or this ubuntu computer name? | 07:09 |
| deathinohio | see if it shows there | 07:09 |
| newmy51 | i've got a long list of details about why it won't mount here. i'll put it in a pastebin | 07:09 |

| newmy51 | no idea | 07:10 |
| econdudeawesome | NemesisD -- That's because I put all data into the "data" partition. I only use home folder for settings/programs and the like. But if you have the HD space (i dont on a lil netbook) 50 GB should be more than sufficient. I also set all dependency folders ("Music", "documents", etc.) in the "data" partition. That way if I wipe the partition, I still have the files :-D | 07:10 |

| econdudeawesome | NemesisD -- Good luck | 07:11 |
| greezmunkey | hellphyre: that's right | 07:11 |
| Classic | ok, open a console, type in sudo nautilus | 07:11 |
| deathinohio | newmy51, you might have to mount it manually because it doesnt know what the filesystem type is | 07:11 |
| econdudeawesome | Howdy! I have UNE 10.04. I was curious if there was any way to unlock the panel to make changes beyond changing the session | 07:11 |
| Mechdave | NemesisD, if you want to install heaps of programs I would go larger on the / partition | 07:11 |
| hellphyre | greezmunkey: same with sevrer string i assume? | 07:11 |
| greezmunkey | hellphyre: ya | 07:11 |
| NemesisD | Mechdave: i don't think the programs take up a lot of place. basically i'm formatting my existing partition and installing 10.04 fresh | 07:12 |
| NemesisD | and hopefully can finish that in 45 minutes since i have work tomorrow :| | 07:12 |

| nomnex | how do I find my HD cache on Linux-ubuntu? | 07:12 |
| deathinohio | newmy51, you could mount it ntfs readonly | 07:12 |

| Classic | newmy51, well, try what im suggesting to see if its permission problem | 07:15 |
| nomnex | I have tried Palimpset not to avail | 07:15 |

| newmy51 | nautilus! | 07:16 |
| hellphyre | greezmunkey: do i need to define static ip to my network card? | 07:16 |
| newmy51 | read-only means it's copyable, yes? | 07:16 |
| Classic | newmy51, now in nautilus on the right u should see ur drive, click it | 07:16 |
| Classic | yes | 07:16 |

| greezmunkey | hellphyre: heh I almost type hellno | 07:17 |
| newmy51 | Classic: but are the permissions sufficient to copy? | 07:17 |
| Classic | newmy51, so u dont have permissions to mount it as a regular user | 07:17 |
| chizaram | Can anyone guide me on how to resolve the sound problem on my Ubuntu 10.04 installation? | 07:17 |
| Classic | yo, can u guys help with permissions for his hdd? | 07:17 |
| liquidmeson | hellphyre: no, your probably on a dynamic network, computers have names instead of ip's | 07:17 |
| chizaram | When I use Skype, I can hear my voice when testing with the Skype Call Test service | 07:17 |
| chizaram | I'm using a Dell Inspiron 1545 | 07:18 |
| chizaram | thanks | 07:18 |
| greezmunkey | hellphyre: no, see hosts allow, you put the first three octets of your ip address, like 192.168.1. - note following (dot) | 07:18 |
| hellphyre | greezmunkey: im reffering to your host allow segnment where you have 192.168.1. and it ends... leave it alone? | 07:18 |
| hellphyre | greezmunkey: haha, got it | 07:18 |
| AnxiousNut | what is the lightest bittorrent client? i wanna run one (on a 256MB RAM) 24/7 | 07:18 |

| hellphyre | ok | 07:18 |
| newmy51 | Classic, deathinohio: I'm all set. I can copy, which is all i'm interested in. Nautilus was the answer. thanks for the help :] | 07:19 |

| deathinohio | newmy51, sweet | 07:20 |
| liquidmeson | atomicsunset, did you delete it? | 07:20 |
| hellphyre | greezmunkey: ahhh right, i forgot i needed to stop it first... | 07:20 |
| Atomicsunset | no i set it on autohide and it wont appear | 07:20 |
| greezmunkey | hellphyre: there's more | 07:20 |
| Atomicsunset | and i cant see it to change options | 07:20 |
| SuNk8 | Atomicsunset, just right-click on the panel >> Properties and uncheck 'Autohide'. Is that what you're looking for? | 07:20 |
| hellphyre | greezmunkey: ok stopped | 07:20 |
| Atomicsunset | i cant get the panel to unhide to click on it to change properties | 07:21 |
| greezmunkey | hellphyre: you need to rename the existing if not already done, like smb.conf.old | 07:21 |

| NemesisD | usb-creator-gtk sucks | 07:21 |
| hellphyre | greezmunkey: how to rename via terminal? | 07:21 |
| liquidmeson | atomicsunset:you could reset all your pannel settings by deleteing the folder ~/.gconf/apps/panel | 07:21 |
| hellphyre | greezmunkey: gui wont give rename options | 07:21 |
| greezmunkey | hellphyre: that is in /etc/samba/smb.conf to /etc/smb/smb.conf.old first, ok... | 07:21 |
| andrewfree | Mechdave: yea | 07:22 |
| Nonpython | mv <old_file_name> <file_name> | 07:22 |
| greezmunkey | hellphyre: sudo mv /etc/samba/smb.conf /etc/samba/smb.conf.old | 07:22 |
| Classic | newmy51, no problem | 07:22 |
| liquidmeson | atomicsunset, then logout/backin | 07:22 |
| SuNk8 | Atomicsunset, did you try logout-login or a restart to address this issue? | 07:22 |
| Atomicsunset | ill try logging out in real quick | 07:22 |
| Mechdave | andrewfree, and that is using my apache2.conf? | 07:22 |
| itilious | is it not possible to use/mount a drive in ubuntu if its being used in another application (ie vbox)? | 07:23 |
| SuNk8 | Guys, what do you think is the biggest change in Ubuntu 10.04 compared to its predessors? | 07:23 |
| greezmunkey | hellphyre: then copy your new smb.conf to /etc/samba: cp {path/file} /etc/samba/smb.conf | 07:23 |
| hellphyre | greezmunkey: what the command to rename? sorry im very new with linux | 07:24 |
| greezmunkey | hellphyre: you can use mv old.file new.file | 07:24 |
| Classic | SuNk8, removal of hal | 07:24 |
| hellphyre | greezmunkey: oh ok | 07:24 |
| hellphyre | greezmunkey: i missed your reply the first time | 07:25 |

I connect using my SSH keys (no problem), but the SSH agent (running inside Fluxbox, and launched by xdm according to pstree) does not seem to know my passphrase anymore: ssh connection requires that I type my passphrase again! Why?! | 07:57 |
| RookieStar | <liquidmeson>ok, thanx, i'll do that. talk later | 07:57 |
| hellphyre | greezmunkey: yep, | 07:57 |

| hellphyre | liquidmeson: it sees the linux machine but keeps sating auth failed | 08:03 |
| hellphyre | idusty: windbind is uninstalled still i think | 08:03 |
| idusty | hellphyre; Oh ha. smbtree doesn't even run? no such file or directory? | 08:03 |

| hellphyre | idusty: i changed nothing until greezmunkey started helping me, | 08:12 |
| idusty | Ah! So no tweaking any config files? Restarting daemons? It was as-if this issue came with the install :P ? | 08:12 |

| Galerien | RookieStar: No, you can't have more than 4 partition on an hard drive, no matter what, but you can create an "extended" partition and put some other partition in it | 08:39 |
| imachuchu | @wildbat: the defualt tutorial just suggested it, either should work and it's booting off of a fat usb drive anyway, should I use grub instead? | 08:39 |
| Galerien | But if you already have 4 partition, you have to destroy one | 08:39 |

| Galerien | just do "sudo apt-get install gparted" | 08:47 |
| hellphyre | greezmunkey: i cannot find the security policies in vista | 08:47 |
| luckymurali | Mechdave, Im still getting the same problem | 08:47 |
| imachuchu | AnxiousNut: it should automatically, check your settings as it might only seed if share is under a certain amount. | 08:48 |
| hellphyre | greezmunkey: tried secpol.msc and gpedit.msc, cannot find either file | 08:48 |
| Mechdave | luckymurali, can you give the machine a restart? | 08:48 |
| luckymurali | Is it possible that i can remove the entire network and reinstall it again | 08:48 |
| idusty | hellphyre: Vista is a bit of an issue alone! | 08:48 |
| luckymurali | Mechdave ok | 08:48 |
| AnxiousNut | imachuchu, how can i do that? | 08:48 |
| Mechdave | luckymurali, ssh should work out of the box | 08:48 |
| luckymurali | mechdave, give me 5 mins i go there and restart it | 08:48 |
| idusty | (Sorry btw; was distracted for a bit then) | 08:48 |
| drbobb | what would be the right place to report that the bcm4318 wireless driver doesn't work? | 08:48 |
| hellphyre | idusty: I KNOW! | 08:49 |
| hellphyre | idusty: i hate it | 08:49 |
| idusty | hellphyre; hehehe! Sorry :P | 08:49 |
| greezmunkey | hellphyre: yeah, like I said *itch... Those commands may have to be added to your vista OS. What version of vista is it? | 08:49 |
| imachuchu | AnxiousNut: give me a sec, I haven't used rtorrent in a bit so I'll need to set up some stuff | 08:49 |
| Galerien | Any one has any news about ATI graphic cards drivers? | 08:49 |
| rocket16 | idusty: Lol nice saying, :D | 08:49 |
| RookieStar | <Galerien>so im on the site for downloading. it's 119M? it's big | 08:50 |
| fd_df | Does anyone use conky? | 08:50 |
| Galerien | RookieStar: "sudo apt-get install gparted" | 08:50 |
| RookieStar | <Galerien>if i can figure it out other way, i dont wanna install a big software | 08:50 |
| Galerien | fd_df: I do, but not battery | 08:50 |
| hellphyre | greezmunkey: home premium... i googled and they said its disabled... lokking for regedits to show it | 08:50 |
| Mechdave | luckymurali, no worries | 08:50 |
| RookieStar | <Galerien>thanx, that's an easier way | 08:50 |
| greezmunkey | hellphyre: cool, you are on your way. I have to go sleep. Have a good one! | 08:51 |
| luckymurali | Mechdave, now its is working | 08:51 |
| RookieStar | <Galerien>ok, im going to have it | 08:51 |
| Galerien | fd_df: try there http://conky.linux-hardcore.com/ | 08:51 |
| luckymurali | but after few minutes it will go off I think | 08:51 |
| hellphyre | greezmunkey: thanks a ton | 08:51 |
| Mechdave | luckymurali, bewdy :) now do you access this from the internet at all? | 08:51 |
| idusty | hellphyre: Home Premium! >.< I heard there are huge limitations on the network services! eg; half open connections :P I don't know much about vista! -shudder | 08:52 |
| hellphyre | greezmunkey: i owe you | 08:52 |
| fd_df | Galerien,o ,thank you ! | 08:52 |
| RookieStar | <Galerien>cool, good to know it's about 4M this way | 08:52 |
| luckymurali | yes | 08:52 |
| greezmunkey | hellphyre: no you don't | 08:52 |
| luckymurali | Mechdave,yes | 08:52 |
| greezmunkey | hellphyre: have a good one. g'night | 08:52 |
| cr33p | does anyone know how to fix (wireless) speed problems under ubuntu 10.04? I got a Netgear WG111v3 as WiFi adapter (chipset rtl8187b) | 08:53 |
| idusty | hellphyre; :P Sorry if my needless babble has not helped your situation! | 08:53 |
| RookieStar | <Galerien>seems it's done, fast. but i cant find it! | 08:53 |
| Galerien | on a console do "sudo gparted &" | 08:54 |
| Sorcererbob | so I've got Synergy working. It's really rather cool | 08:54 |
| matteo1990 | Hi all, i have installed 10.04 and now i can't hear any sound without headphones inserted, any tips? here is my lspci http://paste.ubuntu.com/429362/ | 08:54 |
| luckymurali | Mechdave, thanks, I check this again after 1 hour and let you know the status | 08:54 |
| hellphyre | idusty: no i agree, vista is worthless | 08:54 |
| imachuchu | AnxiousNut: first try typing 'I' | 08:54 |
| idusty | hellphyre; I know they built in similar limits within Windows 7, for network services, infact; services in general. So.. Blah! | 08:55 |
| Galerien | hellphyre: not for games... | 08:55 |
| RookieStar | <Galerien>ok, i'll reboot now | 08:55 |
| Mechdave | luckymurali, you need to configure your machine for some safety | 08:55 |
| RookieStar | thanx a lot, <Galerien> | 08:55 |
| hellphyre | idusty: i would replace it but im running an apache server,, media center with hava, and ftp on it so i dont want to be involved in setting up all my crap again. | 08:55 |
| Galerien | np | 08:55 |
| AnxiousNut | imachuchu, done | 08:55 |
| idusty | hellphyre; :P All possible from an Ubuntu server :P! Infact most services above are infact default installs! Lol | 08:56 |
| ja_ | hi | 08:56 |
| hellphyre | idusty: especially since its mostly for storage anywho | 08:56 |
| hellphyre | idusty: WHOA.. one issue at a time.. lol. lets get my tablet working first | 08:56 |
| imachuchu | AnxiousNut: that will tell all torrents to bypass ratios, is the file uploading? | 08:56 |
| idusty | hellphyre; Lol! | 08:56 |
| idusty | hellphyre; What is the status of your issue? I was afk for a bit there, my apologies! | 08:57 |
| spops | how do you find your internal ip on ubuntu | 08:57 |
| hellphyre | can see workgroup from ubuntu network folder... fails to mount | 08:57 |
| idusty | spops; Within a terminal; ifconfig | 08:57 |
| imachuchu | AnxiousNut: also how many other torrents are you running/how much bandwidth is being used? If you have many torrents and limited badwidth that one might be being pushed to the end of the queue | 08:57 |
| idusty | hellphyre; With what error? | 08:57 |
| AnxiousNut | imachuchu, no it said it'll be taking command! i got only one file | 08:58 |
| hellphyre | idusty: Could not display "smb://192.168.1.10/public/". | 08:58 |
| idusty | hellphyre; I've seen less useful error messages, though that is not great. Have you tried manually mounting it within a terminal? | 08:59 |
| Mechdave | luckymurali, have a look at this page --> http://www.brennan.id.au/16-Secure_Shell.html | 08:59 |
| hellphyre | idusty: im a linux newb, no idea how to do that yet | 08:59 |
| Mechdave | luckymurali, this will take you through securing sshd so you don't get cracked so easily | 08:59 |
| idusty | hellphyre; I'm no professional! But I believe the command would be. "sudo mkdir /mnt/(foldername)" -> "sudo mount -tsmbfs <remote path> /mnt/(foldername)" | 09:00 |
| sk811229_ | hello | 09:00 |
| imachuchu | AnxiousNut: ok, so you only have that torrent loaded and it's not listing anything being uploaded? | 09:00 |
| skriv | first full install, leaving windows behind for good today :) | 09:00 |
| idusty | hellphyre; This will at very least give you a bit more information in an error message, even if we have to check the messages or syslog files. These things are amazing for such debugging! | 09:01 |
| matteo1990 | Hi all, i have installed 10.04 and now i can't hear any sound without headphones inserted, any tips? here is my lspci http://paste.ubuntu.com/429362/ | 09:01 |
| AnxiousNut | imachuchu, nothing is uploading! written done next to the file | 09:01 |
| sk811229 | who from china ? | 09:01 |
| Mechdave | luckymurali, and this one will take you through a complete server set up, --> http://www.brennan.id.au/ | 09:01 |
| charlZA | good for you skriv :) I wish I could, but Adobe is the only thing keeping me on a dual boot | 09:01 |
| hellphyre | idusty: lol your post is greek to me right now | 09:01 |
| hellphyre | idusty: sorry | 09:02 |
| idusty | hellphyre; Nah don't be. You know how to get into a terminal, correct :P ? | 09:02 |
| hellphyre | yep | 09:02 |
| idusty | hellphyre; Okey So. For eg; "sudo mkdir /mnt/tempfolder" | 09:02 |
| skriv | i've been using ubuntu in a VM for almost a year getting set, now i'll relegate my few windows activities to the VM instead | 09:02 |
| rocket16 | !china | sk811229 | 09:02 |
| ubottu | sk811229: For Ubuntu help in Chinese 您可以访问中文频道： #ubuntu-cn 或者 #ubuntu-tw 或者 #ubuntu-hk | 09:02 |
| sk811229 | ? | 09:02 |
| idusty | helphyre; I choose the mnt folder cause I believe it's generally used for 'temporary' mounts. Anyway.. That'll create you a folder :P | 09:03 |
| sk811229 | thinks | 09:03 |
| hellphyre | idusty: k | 09:03 |
| rocket16 | God, can't an Ethernet network be created between two Ubuntu PCs without router? I had the same in Windows, but since I switched long ago to Ubuntu, I can't get it working, | 09:03 |
| charlZA | I am happily running #!crunchbang on my netbook, :) but in only Lightroom is keeping windows installed for me | 09:03 |
| idusty | hellphyre; Then "sudo mount -tsmbfs <remote path> <local path>" for eg; "sudo mount -tsmbfs //192.168.1.10/public/ /mnt/tempfolder" | 09:03 |
| edithhelal | I have added the mediuntu repository, however a search for the packet skype shows only things like pidgin-skype python-skype but not the actual skype packet. I am on version 10.04 | 09:04 |
| xiNux3r | hello people | 09:04 |
| idusty | hellphyre; note, there is a space between the remote path and local path | 09:04 |
| staff_nowa | hello ;) | 09:04 |
| xiNux3r | I have a somthing problem | 09:04 |
| hateball | rocket16: do you have a switch, or using crossover cable between two hosts? | 09:04 |
| === STRUZZO is now known as StruZZo | ||
| rocket16 | Tomboy vs GNote, which is better? I saw, that GNote is faster, since it is C++ port of tomboy, but is it feature-rich? | 09:04 |
| hellphyre | idusty: mount error(12): Cannot allocate memory | 09:04 |
| xiNux3r | on ubuntu lucid lynx | 09:04 |
| hellphyre | weeeee | 09:04 |
| idusty | hellphyre; here we are back to your memory error | 09:04 |
| rocket16 | hateball: Yes, I do have, an Ethernet cable between them, | 09:04 |
| imachuchu | AnxiousNut: hah! press 8 at the main window | 09:05 |
| idusty | hellphyre; can you do that snippet page with the output of this; | 09:05 |
| rocket16 | Sorry friends, need to leave now, see you all again | 09:05 |
| jim__ | have usb connection to my phone, how do I get linux to notice it when I plug it in and access so I can download mp3's | 09:05 |
| idusty | hellphyre; "tail /var/log/syslog" - and "tail /var/log/messages" - Also.. I'm not sure.. but be careful this does not contain any personal information! | 09:05 |
| skriv | i'm having trouble with multi monitor wiht 2 graphics cards. here's lshw -C video http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/0QsWKrmc | 09:05 |
| skriv | read a post just now saying that radeon card with nvidia isn't likely to be workable... | 09:06 |
| skriv | is that right? | 09:06 |
| skriv | the post was a couple years old | 09:06 |
| AnxiousNut | imachuchu, it shows me the file in the seeding view but it's not seeding! | 09:06 |
| malko | hello | 09:06 |
| rockz | Hi | 09:07 |
| rockz | hi | 09:07 |
| imachuchu | AnxiousNut: well then there is nothing you can do. rtorrent is offering the file but nobody wants it. Depending on your location and connection you may be an undesirable peer. I live in Fairbanks, AK and I rarely can seed many popular files somply because my connection is comparitively so slow | 09:08 |
| rockz | is Kubuntu 10.4 is same like ubuntu 9.10 | 09:08 |
| hellphyre | idusty: http://pastebin.com/GXt6wP0F | 09:08 |
| rockz | is Kubuntu 10.4 is same like ubuntu 9.10 | 09:08 |
| hellphyre | idusty: fist output, missed second request as chatzilla took a poop | 09:08 |
| AnxiousNut | imachuchu, but it seeds on the other pc using trasmission! | 09:09 |
| jim__ | have usb connection to my phone, how do I get linux to notice it when I plug it in and access so I can download mp3's | 09:09 |
| edithhelal | was skype removed from Medibuntu_ | 09:09 |
| hellphyre | idusty: omg | 09:09 |
| imachuchu | AnxiousNut: Ahh, I bet I might know, give me a sec | 09:09 |
| rockz | is Kubuntu 10.4 is same like ubuntu 9.10 | 09:10 |
| rockz | hello any on can assist | 09:10 |
| rockz | is Kubuntu 10.4 is same like ubuntu 9.10 | 09:10 |
| idusty | hellphyre; you may have to re-run the mount command again "sudo mount -tsmbfs //192.168.1.10/public/ /mnt/tempfolder" before this (cause there will have been more output to those log files since the last run) | 09:10 |
| matteo1990 | Hi all, i have installed 10.04 and now i can't hear any sound without headphones inserted, any tips? here is my lspci http://paste.ubuntu.com/429362/ | 09:10 |
| idusty | hellphyre; "tail /var/log/syslog" and "tail /var/log/messages" | 09:10 |
| edithhelal | I do not find the package 'skype' anymore with 'apt-cache' | 09:10 |
| rdz | jim__, what kind of phone is it? | 09:11 |
| jim__ | samsung slide | 09:11 |
| SandGorgon | edithhelal, you'll have to go to skype's site and download the .deb file | 09:11 |
| rockz | is Kubuntu 10.4 is same like ubuntu 9.10 | 09:11 |
| llutz | rockz: no | 09:12 |
| edithhelal | SandGorgon: Which one would you recommend since they do not have 10.04 ? | 09:12 |
| imachuchu | AnxiousNut: not what I was looking for, but try increasing your upload limit (none seems to have problems sometimes) | 09:12 |
| rockz | is that have same applications llutz | 09:12 |
| hellphyre | idusty: | 09:12 |
| llutz | rockz: nearly the same i guess, different versions | 09:13 |
| rdz | jim__, i don't know that phone. is it recognized as mass storage on windows system, when plugged? | 09:13 |
| === sam_ is now known as Guest72713 | ||
| jim__ | yes | 09:13 |
| idusty | hellphyre; is.. that an IPv6 interface? :S I Dunno much about IPv6 but.. some of that is a bit weird. - "ifconfig" within a terminal. | 09:13 |
| idusty | hellphyre; blank line :P ? | 09:13 |
| hellphyre | idusty: http://pastebin.com/2JqN8QJX | 09:13 |
| rdz | jim__, but there is no icon showing up when connecting on ubuntu? | 09:13 |
| rockz | what you feel witch one is better | 09:13 |
| AnxiousNut | imachuchu, got it up to 100 "[U 0/100]" | 09:13 |
| Guest72713 | hi, bootchart shows me that mysqladmin is started, i don't need that. how can prevent this from starting when booting? | 09:13 |
| jim__ | right, can't connect to it | 09:13 |
| hellphyre | idusty: ipv6 on my ubuntu machine? no its disabled | 09:14 |
| SirRedTooth | For some reason firefox wont play sound on youtube videos | 09:14 |
| jim__ | when I plug it in, it will charge, but cannot access as device | 09:14 |
| idusty | hellphyre; Actually I may have specified an invalid filesys... The share is on a Windows vista machine err.. 10 sec >.< | 09:14 |
| twiztid | hey anyone know how i would be able to upgrade my GLX version from 1.2 to at least 1.3? | 09:14 |
| rdz | jim__, can you post your answers to me, so that i have it easier to read them? like: rdz, this doesn't work | 09:14 |
| skriv | Just installed lucid on what used to be a windows machine. I have dual graphics cards, 1st is NVIDIA, 2nd ATI Radeon. The Radeon is "No Signal Input" on startup, but I get the splash screen "Ubuntu" (with teh dots below) on shut down. I see both cards with lshw, but I'm not sure how to proceed. Any ideas? | 09:14 |
| jim__ | rdz, no worries, sorry about that | 09:15 |
| moetunes | !who | jim__ | 09:15 |
| ubottu | jim__: 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 :) | 09:15 |
| rdz | jim__, do 'dmesg' in a terminal and see if you see something about it... probably some device is created such as /dev/sdb or something like that | 09:15 |
| rdz | jim__, no problem at all | 09:15 |
| AnxiousNut | Am i missing a step? i wanna change my ip to static, what i did is nm-applet --> edit --> IPv4 --> manual --> added IP + netmask + gateway ! now it's not working! | 09:15 |
| imachuchu | AnxiousNut: have you set up your own .rtorrent config file? by default DHT is disabled and it might be the reason you aren't seeding | 09:16 |
| idusty | hellphyre; Nah that should be the right command. Hmm. | 09:16 |
| rdz | jim__, if you find the correct device, you can try to mount your phone manually: sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt | 09:16 |
| hellphyre | idusty: hmm indeed sir | 09:17 |
| idusty | hellphyre; "sudo apt-get install smbfs" what do you get running this? | 09:17 |
| AnxiousNut | imachuchu, i was reading a guide and it said i should copy the example from /user/share/doc/rtorrent/example/rtorrentrc | 09:17 |
| idusty | hopefully latest version already? | 09:17 |
| jim__ | rdz, it didn't find anything | 09:17 |
| hellphyre | idusty: already installed newest ver | 09:17 |
| idusty | hellphyre; great! | 09:17 |
| SandGorgon | edithhelal, 8.04 - either 64-bit or 32-bit based on your base operating system | 09:18 |

| bjt3 | Hello. I'm trying to get Ubuntu 10 working on my old B&W Apple G3 computer. I know PPC is not supported, but don't know where else to turn for help. | 09:18 |
| idusty | hellphyre; Do you have a username / password to login to the Windows Vista machine? (Also not sure if you have tried accessing this share from another workstation if you have one?) | 09:18 |
| hellphyre | idusty: yes, yes. | 09:18 |
| edithhelal | SandGorgon: I tried that... however I do not have ringing sounds, while I do have the sound when I call someone | 09:18 |
| rdz | jim__, when you plug and unplug your phone there is no change at the end of the dmesg output? | 09:19 |
| imachuchu | AnxiousNut: ok then fire up your favorite text editor and find and comment in/add in a line that says "dht = auto" | 09:19 |
| imachuchu | AnxiousNut: also you might want to add in/uncomment "dht = 6881" | 09:19 |
| idusty | hellphyre; Okey. Try the mount command again; with an addition | 09:19 |
| carcharodon2 | ciao | 09:19 |
| jim__ | rdz, I get this for error ... ath5k phy0: noise floor calibration failed (2432MHz) | 09:19 |
| imachuchu | AnxiousNut: lastly also check your encryption settings, there may be cleints trying who want to connect with encryption but you aren't letting them | 09:20 |
| SirRedTooth | I installed this package because sound on firefox wasn't working http://www.thelinuxdaily.com/2007/10/how-to-fix-the-no-sound-issue-in-firefox-flash/ | 09:20 |
| SirRedTooth | It works not but there is massive lag | 09:21 |
| SirRedTooth | So the video starts, 4 seconds later sound comes | 09:21 |
| Sam_Fisher | why did they steel my BlackJack game when I upgraded to 10.4? How do I get it back? | 09:21 |
| SandGorgon | edithhelal, that would be your specific hardware and sound configuration. It does mean that installation was successful - you need to play with sound settings in skype | 09:21 |
| hellphyre | idusty: awaiting additionz | 09:21 |
| edithhelal | SandGorgon: thanks... but I do not get any sound settings to chose from | 09:22 |
| hellphyre | Sam_Fisher: thats messed up | 09:22 |

| imachuchu | costin_: what model camera? | 09:36 |
| kjelle | anyone experienced this? | 09:36 |
| cmpsalvestrini | costin_: Have you tried the standard diagnostics and/or relevant googling to see whether your USB recognizes when the camera is plugged in and whether it's supported in Linux? | 09:36 |
| gui_ | every time I reboot my computer visual settings turn on special effects and it slow down my processor a lot ! How to lock this status to no effects at all please ? I use lucid ... | 09:36 |

| Nubulis | DasEi: Thanx for the help last night | 09:38 |
| moetunes | kjelle: you could try in terminal killall -v metacity && metacity | 09:38 |
| kwtm | theadmin: Thanks for help. I may have found it: another source suggests "echo 'blah' >&2" so it looks like "&2" is the filename for stderr. | 09:38 |
| llutz | theadmin: package? idk, in $pwd | 09:38 |
| kjelle | moetunes: no metacity running | 09:39 |
| imachuchu | is there anyway to change it's transfer mode to acting as a usb storage device (see if we can bypass the problem all together)? | 09:39 |

| kjelle | moetunes: ill try that | 09:42 |

| idusty | Anyone.. Know much about the "hdparm" package... Specificaly.. the configuration file (/etc/hdparm.conf) and when it's invoked / called? >.<? | 09:43 |
| llutz | idusty: "pre-upstart" it was run once at boottime | 09:43 |
| sajanek | hi all | 09:44 |
| cmpsalvestrini | ruby_on_tails: alien lets you install packages that are not .deb packages... but I wouldn't recommend it | 09:44 |
| ruby_on_tails | cmpsalvestrini: how do I do that ? | 09:44 |
| supernothing | Sam_Fisher: lol, it was worth a try. It was already installed on my upgrade to Lucid, so I'm intrigued that it got uninstalled on yours. Have you run sudo apt-get update recently? | 09:44 |
| Sam_Fisher | Nubulis, I am using PS3 Media server on my PS3 and it works so good on my P4! | 09:44 |

| Sam_Fisher | supernothing, It looked like it was updating blackjack but in the end it is just gone | 09:46 |
| ruby_on_tails | cmpsalvestrini: it's a linux static binary | 09:46 |
| theadmin | littlepenguin: I found a better one, package "cmatrix" | 09:46 |
| ruby_on_tails | cmpsalvestrini: that's what google says | 09:46 |

| idusty | llutz; Far from even a var. I believe the instance of this, indicates this bootlogd must be run before running such. | 09:56 |
| ruby_on_tails | hi FloodBot1 | 09:56 |
| supernothing | Sam_Fisher: haha, unfortunately I'll have to make due with the Jose Cuervo handle I have around. Oh well... | 09:57 |
| llutz | !find /etc/init.d/hdparm | 09:58 |
| idusty | llutz; Sorry.. To describe better; it appears this is just a bit of text in a comment of the bootlogd file. | 09:58 |
| ubottu | Package/file /etc/init.d/hdparm does not exist in lucid | 09:58 |
| wildbat | anyone know there is echo reduction for the mic and speaker? | 09:58 |
| iceroot | TipTop: nvidia | 09:58 |
| idusty | ubottu; But the configuration files, and attempting execute 'hdparm' actually have output. That's why i'm slightly confused. | 09:59 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 09:59 |
| grang | how do edid for my monitor? | 09:59 |
| Sam_Fisher | ok here is an odd one. Rhythmbox I have config editor open and I can see a long list of library_locations. I close Rhythmbox and it changes to home/rick/music. I am trying to get it to stop watching two folders. | 09:59 |
| cm2 | hi, we did a post on ubuntuforums.org: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1475678 if someone does have an idea, you're very welcome to help us :-) | 09:59 |
| cm2 | thanks! | 09:59 |
| idusty | llutz; I should have noticed he's a bot :P And that you were running a search! -blonde moment- | 10:00 |
| llutz | idusty: sorry was just a check | 10:00 |
| codeshah | hmm, how would I set things so that a domain is redirected to another? using cname? | 10:00 |
| idusty | llutz; it's cool. I'm just dumb. | 10:00 |
| apporc | Hi all | 10:01 |
| llutz | idusty: here on dbeian, those startscripts are part of hdparm-package. *buntu with upstart handles that different, so i would suggest, go for rc.local | 10:01 |

| supernothing | Sam_Fisher: the library database is located in ~/.local/share/rhythmbox/rhythmdb.xml | 10:03 |
| idusty | llutz; Okey! Well... I can just literally type the 'commands' i want run in this rc.local file? I don't have to reference to another script right? | 10:03 |
| llutz | idusty: yep | 10:03 |
| supernothing | Sam_Fisher: you can try `rm ~/.local/share/rhythmbox/rhythmdb.xml`, might solve your problem | 10:03 |
| littlepenguin | tip top normally metamodes are a set of a resolution which is treated as one big screen | 10:03 |
| littlepenguin | tiptop for example 2 monitors with 1024x768 would be treated as 2048x768 | 10:04 |

| TipTop | littlepenguin: in karmic, it seems that there is no xorg.conf anymore. true? | 10:04 |
| Aciid | how can I get electricsheep to work with gnome-screensaver? | 10:05 |
| TipTop | littlepenguin: plus the fact that the size of the metamode is dependant on the resolution of the external screen you plug on. | 10:05 |
| Sam_Fisher | supernothing, thanks for nothing! Now I have nothing in my music list. Oh wait that's what I wanted. Thanks Superman! | 10:05 |
| idusty | llutz; I appreciate your help :P | 10:05 |
| geekphreak | hi all | 10:05 |
| geekphreak | llutz: hi bud | 10:05 |
| Sam_Fisher | supernothing, that was so easy for you. I read 5 websites that couldn't give me that answer. | 10:05 |
| idusty | llutz; Sorry if the Q's were a bit confusing. As you can maybe understand.. Config file... Actual package.. yet no daemon? LOL | 10:05 |
| aperson | how would I go about running a script after my kernel modules have been loaded? | 10:06 |
| llutz | idusty: hdparm never works as a daemon, it's just called once to read/set things | 10:06 |
| TipTop | littlepenguin: the tool available in ubuntu manages autodetection of the external scree, and management of a correct vevirtual screen ry easily. but as far as i understand, it uses xinerama features for that. | 10:06 |
| _teflon | for a bug report i am requested to deliver the file kern.log.0 This file seems to be absent on my system. Any idea what this file is used for? | 10:06 |
| idusty | llutz; Then why so many suggestions to run a service restart? >.< Hehe no wonder I'm so confused! | 10:07 |
| geekphreak | Pici: hello | 10:07 |
| yiamiyo | hi | 10:07 |
| llutz | idusty: it should have done the same as former "/etc/init.d/hdparm (re)start" | 10:07 |
| supernothing | Sam_Fisher: haha, that's what about 6 years of exclusive linux usage gets you i guess. i'm nowhere near as good as many, still have much to learn. that's what i love about linux though, always more to understand | 10:08 |
| yiamiyo | i'm currently logged in via ssh to my pc at home...is there any way to login as if i was there (with gdm session) | 10:08 |
| morenocalo | holas | 10:08 |
| yiamiyo | not x forwarding...i want just to make my computer logged in | 10:08 |
| geekphreak | vnc perhaps | 10:08 |
| Sam_Fisher | supernothing, then i don't feel so bad. 1 year for me. Every day I get further from Winderz use. My family can't even tell when they are using Ubuntu and that says a lot about the maturity of Ubuntu. | 10:09 |
| yiamiyo | i want to make my computer at home login as if i had physical access to it... | 10:10 |
| yiamiyo | using username/password | 10:10 |
| littlepenguin | tiptop so on my config xinerama =0 and metamode set and working..i have a nvidia | 10:11 |
| supernothing | yiamyio: what you are probably looking for is vino-server. just go to preferences->remote desktop and set it up there | 10:11 |
| === gui_ is now known as kryl | ||
| yiamiyo | supernothing, i don't want to login wremotely with xsession...i just want to make my pc logged in at home... | 10:12 |
| geekphreak | huh | 10:13 |
| yiamiyo | now it's at login screen i think..and i want to log it in | 10:13 |
| supernothing | yiamiyo: hrm, not sure i understand your problem then....you just want to get access to your desktop remotely, correct? | 10:14 |
| yiamiyo | no | 10:14 |
| supernothing | Sam_Fisher: haha, you shouldn't ever feel bad. Everyone has to learn sometime. And it makes me glad to hear you're switching your family to ubuntu as well :P | 10:14 |
| yiamiyo | i want to make it login...like tell my mother the username/password and login | 10:15 |
| kermit | how much free disk space will i need to upgrade to 10.4 ? | 10:15 |
| yiamiyo | jsut this | 10:15 |
| stevecam | how do i stop the contents of the clip board from clearing when i close the application i copied the data from | 10:15 |
| TipTop | ittlepenguin: what if you plug on an external screen with an unexpected resolution? do you have to manually add a metamode in your xorg.conf and restart X ? | 10:15 |
| supernothing | yiamiyo: ok, i see...so um, i guess telling your mother the username/pass is out of the question? tightvnc-server might also be able to do this without telling her the pass | 10:16 |
| supernothing | stevecam: by pasting the contents into gedit before you close the progam? :P i know, total hack, but it works | 10:17 |
| TipTop | ittlepenguin: what if you plug on an external screen with an unexpected resolution? do you have to manually add a metamode in your xorg.conf and restart X ? | 10:17 |
| yiamiyo | supernothing, i told you an example to understand...i want to login the gdm session i have at home like if i had physical access to it.. | 10:17 |
| yiamiyo | can i do it with a command? | 10:17 |
| stevecam | supernothing, lol, that's what i have been doing | 10:17 |
| yiamiyo | i have ssh connection right now | 10:17 |
| littlepenguin | tiptop you also need to set the resolution for both screens and then add a metamode for those..fe you have on 1280*1024 and one 1024*768 you set metamode for those two but there will be the issue of unfitted space | 10:18 |
| supernothing | stevecam: haha, yeah, i'd actually like to know the answer to that myself. it's weird, i've noticed that only some programs do that on my box, never taken the time to figure out why. sorry i can't be of more help | 10:18 |
| ruby_on_tails | can someone suggest me a good read on static binaries ? | 10:18 |
| littlepenguin | so both screens should be set to 1024x768 or both to 1280x1024 just to get a good and visible screen | 10:19 |
| littlepenguin | @tiptop | 10:19 |
| ruby_on_tails | and how to install static binaries ? | 10:19 |
| supernothing | yiamiyo: i understand what you're trying to do, what I'm saying is that you might try installing tightvnc-server and connecting to that. I believe it uses the existing xsession | 10:19 |
| stevecam | supernothing, don't be sorry, i am not suffering any grievance from it | 10:19 |
| luckymurali | Hi all | 10:20 |
| pter | hi | 10:20 |
| supernothing | yiamiyo: sudo apt-get install tightvncserver | 10:20 |
| axeltux | hi luckymurali | 10:20 |
| yiamiyo | so i cannot do it with a command?because i'll had to do prot forwarding too to use vnc and i cannot from where i am... | 10:20 |
| AnxiousNut | how can i have static ip that works? i changed the one in nm-applet and had it "manual" and added the ip, the netmask, and gateway but doesnt work! help | 10:20 |

| farvito | mobileuser: I dont think it does I'm pretty sure you have ot install it | 10:26 |
| kermit | Mechdave: i think that's refering to installing from CD, not upgrading | 10:26 |
| === llutz_ is now known as llutz | ||
| Mechdave | kermit, I suppose you will need more as you need a temp dir to upgrade | 10:27 |
| mobileuser | farvito, ubottu, moetunes: ty for the info. i heard it comes with kaffe or something. so theres not any way to run .jar files without installing jre or anything :( | 10:28 |
| farvito | java is simple to install | 10:28 |
| Mechdave | kermit, I always do a fresh install without formatting my /home directory | 10:28 |

| knut_ | hello, im trying to help a colleague with his computers. he has 8.10 installed on his old one and now on the new one i have installed 10.04 for him. have created a tar.gz backup of his home directory on the old laptop. can i just unpack this on the new one and everything will work fine... or is there a better way/a way that works to do this? | 10:36 |
| farvito | Mechdave: are you suggesting a reformat every 6 months? | 10:36 |
| asktoby | I installed something with ./configure; make; make install;. To upgrade it, do I just repeat that with the new source code, or should I pull out the old one first? | 10:37 |
| UT8F | wildbat, now all indicator area has gone! lol | 10:37 |
| Mechdave | farvito, what I do is screw with the system a bit, might be different if all you want to do is use ubuntu without delving into the system config | 10:37 |
| geekphreak | knut_: i would create a folder on desktop >> backup, unzip everything there, you dont need everything just individual files/data | 10:37 |
| joaopinto | knut_, that is fine, you just need to be carefull with the user numeric id, which may be differente on the new system | 10:37 |
| moetunes | !checkinstall | asktoby | 10:37 |
| ubottu | asktoby: checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall - Read the warnings at the top and bottom of that web page, and DO NOT interrupt CheckInstall while it's running! | 10:37 |
| Mechdave | farvito, besides mine usually only lasts 1 to 3 months | 10:37 |
| joaopinto | geekphreak, that does not backup application settings | 10:38 |
| farvito | Mechdave: thats a little insane | 10:38 |
| wildbat | UT8F, >.> | 10:38 |
| geekphreak | joaopinto: he aint backing up, he is restoring | 10:38 |
| asktoby | moetunes: Thanks - I'll do that in future. Today, though, I already have something installed from source that I want to upgrade. | 10:38 |
| farvito | Mechdave, but I am the guy that has everything on his comp lol | 10:38 |
| kermit | Mechdave: do you at least store and recover the package list, so you dont have to select packages again? | 10:38 |
| UT8F | I'm not jocking ;/ applet has disapeared :| | 10:38 |
| Mechdave | farvito, it is how I learn about the system. Modify it to my own ends | 10:39 |
| joaopinto | geekphreak, the same comment applies, that will not restore the applications settings into the proper locations :) | 10:39 |
| moetunes | asktoby: allyou can do is rebuild the new source | 10:39 |
| wildbat | UT8F, okok ~ do a reset then ~ | 10:39 |
| jibadeeha | kermit, how do you extract the package list | 10:39 |
| farvito | Mechdave is that on your every day box? | 10:39 |
| UT8F | I did | 10:39 |
| Mechdave | kermit, All I usually do is keep monthly backups of /home | 10:39 |
| geekphreak | joaopinto: old system has old version, might cause conflic, like i said i wont do it all, just indivdual data | 10:39 |

| ubottu | UT8F: To reset the panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » | 10:41 |
| mobileuser | and it will install it or should i download something and then run this command? | 10:41 |

| moetunes | mobileuser: yep do sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre | 10:42 |
| knut_ | geekphreak & joaopinto: thanks, i get what you mean, i think i will try to create a folder on desktop and move things where he wants it. he dont need every setting and plugin etc. photos, e-mails and documents etc. is what he is after i guess. i took a complete backup just in case i would mess it up somewhere. | 10:42 |
| Mechdave | farvito, I usually leave my /home alone as it lives on a physically different drive | 10:42 |
| UT8F | What I should do, that wifi icon would be on try event if it is off? (Wifi) | 10:42 |

| llutz | Mechdave: he basically shows his inability to search for information, which imho is aim of the teachers questions (not the answer are, the way to get them) | 10:57 |
| supernothing | sarthorks: if i understand your question correctly, you're just reinstalling ubuntu while leaving your / intact. if that's the case, just use an ext4 fs. it really doesnt matter, and ext4 will give you some extra performance benefits | 10:58 |
| tonyg | hi all -- is there a webpage somewhere describing what happened to spidermonkey-bin in lucid? iirc it was available in karmic | 10:58 |
| supernothing | sarthorks: while leaving your /home intact * | 10:58 |
| sarthorks | supernothing, no im doing a clean install from 8.04 to 10.04, so im formatting my /root | 10:59 |
| {g} | siomyn: ok, trying that | 10:59 |
| DASPRiD | sarthorks, just the root home directory? | 10:59 |
| Mechdave | llutz, By the way he asked his first question, yes I believe you are right. spazmi perhaps should have asked "Can anyone point me in the right direction for deciphering UNIX numerical permissions" | 10:59 |
| supernothing | tonyg: should still be available according to the repos...https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/lucid/i386/spidermonkey-bin/1.8.1.16+nobinonly-0ubuntu1 | 10:59 |
| kermit | sarthorks: i think xfs has always been better than ext* | 11:00 |
| sarthorks | supernothing, yeah so different filesystems for / and /home doens cuase any trouble? | 11:00 |
| UT8F | wildbat nothink happent | 11:00 |
| UT8F | there is no wired or wifi icons | 11:00 |
| sarthorks | DASPRid only the root directory i am going to format. home i want to leave intact | 11:00 |
| supernothing | sarthorks: yes, that is what i was getting at. different filesystems wont cause any issues, at least it should. it's all abstracted from everything else. all the other kernel stuff just sees files, it doesn't care how the filesystem is getting it that info | 11:00 |
| tonyg | supernothing: thank you! is there a particular sources.list line i'll need to pick it up? | 11:00 |
| sarthorks | supernothing, oh ok. thanks a lot! | 11:01 |

| supernothing | tonyg: just make sure you've run `sudo apt-get build-essential` and you'll probably be ok | 11:14 |
| tonyg | supernothing: yep can do. shame it's gone though :-) thanks for checking it out! | 11:14 |
| bazhang | supernothing, you mean to add an install in there, right | 11:14 |
| geekphreak | dengar_: >> system>>prefrence>>appearence | 11:15 |

| supernothing | stevecam: that's my story, and i'm sticking to it :P | 11:16 |
| geekphreak | oh ok hmm | 11:16 |
| dengar_ | If I start Nautilus as super-user, it's fine | 11:16 |

| bazhang | norc, not sure there; you need it in the cd? | 11:20 |

| dengar_ | Mechdave: thanks, will do that | 11:20 |
| geekphreak | mvbmarksman: still same here? | 11:21 |
| mvbmarksman | I made sure that libmysqlclient16 was marked for complete removal | 11:21 |
| norc | Yeah no offense, but Ill rather stick to some "just download and burn" image that satisify my needs. Thanks for your help however. :) | 11:21 |

| ruby_on_tails | I have an executable package which works ok, but I have to type ./name after going into that folder everytime I want to run it | 11:21 |
| ruby_on_tails | how can I install it such that I can type name directly to run it ? | 11:21 |
| mvbmarksman | geekphreak: yes I'm getting the same error | 11:21 |
| Mechdave | ruby_on_tails, you need to add it to the $PATH | 11:22 |
| ruby_on_tails | Mechdave: but other stuffs installed never need that | 11:22 |
| ruby_on_tails | I just install them and they run | 11:22 |
| ruby_on_tails | like I type ie6 and it opens | 11:22 |
| ruby_on_tails | but this one doesn't | 11:22 |
| mvbmarksman | geekphreak: it's weird because I'm able to access mysql using other clients and my webapp is also able to connect to mysql | 11:22 |
| ruby_on_tails | its an executable file | 11:22 |
| geekphreak | ie6 eh? | 11:22 |
| ruby_on_tails | ie6forlinux | 11:22 |
| Mechdave | ruby_on_tails, this may have been installed outside of the scope of the $PATH variable | 11:22 |
| ruby_on_tails | what is $PATH ? :( this is driving me crazy :(( | 11:23 |
| geekphreak | mvbmarksman: so mysql -u root -p works? | 11:23 |
| stevecam | ruby_on_tails, microsoft did release an internet explorer that works under linux | 11:23 |
| Mechdave | ruby_on_tails, yep, need to add it to $PATH | 11:23 |
| geekphreak | stevecam: got a link? | 11:23 |
| ruby_on_tails | I have to type mysql -uroot -p. not -you root | 11:23 |
| Mechdave | ruby_on_tails, easiest way is to add it to your.profile in your home directory | 11:23 |
| ruby_on_tails | hmm | 11:23 |
| ruby_on_tails | will do that then | 11:23 |
| mvbmarksman | geekphreak: nope, it works if I access it using phpmyadmin or emma | 11:23 |
| ruby_on_tails | Mechdave: but still have to type ./ | 11:24 |
| mvbmarksman | geekphreak: but mysql -u ... doesn't | 11:24 |
| siomyn | IE ? with wine ? | 11:24 |
| geekphreak | mvbmarksman: open console please | 11:24 |
| mvbmarksman | geekphreak: I have it opened already | 11:24 |
| tonyg | I'm so confused. From https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/lucid/+package/spidermonkey-bin, it looks like there have been packages built, but my sources.list has main, restricted, and universe, and spidermonkey-bin isn't there. Is there a new repository I could add to sources.list to pick up the packages off launchpad or something? I've been browsing launchpad and can't find the help :-/ | 11:24 |

| supernothing | tonyg: you might ask here, there's a filed bug report about this issue: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xulrunner-1.9.2/+bug/536950 seems pretty dumb to me, doesn't hurt to just keep it in there for hysterical raisins | 11:36 |

| Wipster | hwilde, there is no DHCP on that network | 12:22 |
| indus | Galerien, dont try that one | 12:23 |
| hwilde | Wipster, well basically I thin kthat is not the gateway | 12:23 |

| dto | airtonix: the rest of the panel works fine. this is an upgrade from karmic, so perhaps my old panel settings are messing things up? | 12:35 |
| airtonix | dto, might be, best way to confirm that is to create a new user and log in with that user | 12:35 |

| pixel | why should i install 64 bit if speed dont increase | 12:47 |
| radIT | <theadmin> ok I Know ..... I sorry | 12:47 |
| IdleOne | lassegul: skype 64bit using pulseaudio working perfectly, installed it two days ago | 12:47 |
| Dr_Willis | I DID have issues in 10.04 with snes9x being real slow for me. Not sure if it was a 32/64bit or nvidia driver issue.. not tried it in a few weeks | 12:47 |
| pixel | i have a question for ati users | 12:48 |
| pixel | about video tearing | 12:48 |
| magarcia | iyg | 12:48 |
| whiteguysamurai | one of the benefits of 64bit is the larger access to memory, if you are doing something very memory intensive like encoding video, 64 bit is worth it. | 12:49 |
| === anonymouse_ is now known as _anonymouse_ | ||
| magarcia | hola | 12:49 |
| pixel | does your ubuntu have video tearing with ati official driver? | 12:49 |
| pixel | i get it whiteguysamurai | 12:49 |
| Dr_Willis | whiteguysamurai: even with 3 gb of ram - i find my encoding faster with 64 vs 32. | 12:50 |
| Galerien | Dr_Willis: Normal, you can process 64bits words instead of 32... | 12:50 |
| idusty | hmm. | 12:50 |

| whiteguysamurai | did you get that message? | 12:51 |
| pixel | yes | 12:51 |
| whiteguysamurai | there you go, try it out. | 12:52 |
| pixel | thank you | 12:52 |
| whiteguysamurai | sure. | 12:52 |
| pixel | i have new question | 12:52 |
| pixel | does your ubuntu have video tearing with ati official driver? | 12:52 |
| whiteguysamurai | sure | 12:52 |
| Dr_Willis | pixel: if 5 say yes.. and 3 say no.. what will that prove? | 12:52 |
| whiteguysamurai | the tearing is because vblank is off by default. | 12:52 |
| pixel | i use smplayer with gl, and it has video tearing | 12:53 |
| Dr_Willis | pixel: compiz has a vblank setting that can help a lot. | 12:53 |
| pixel | i try it it didnt work | 12:53 |
| whiteguysamurai | when you use the compiz setting manager, and go under general, vblack will be forced on. | 12:53 |
| dean[w] | Where's the setting to move the close/maximise/minimise buttons from left to right in latest ubuntu? | 12:53 |
| jrib | !controls | dean[w] | 12:54 |

| ChrisC | Hi all,my GRUB 2 is messed up. How do I repair it bring back to default? | 12:54 |
| whiteguysamurai | dean, i used ubuntu tweak to easily reverse those. | 12:54 |
| jrib | !grub2 | ChrisC | 12:54 |
| ubottu | ChrisC: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 | 12:54 |
| ChrisC | Currently in live CD. | 12:54 |
| dean[w] | whiteguysamurai, what's the tweak? | 12:54 |
| whiteguysamurai | good ubuntu tweak, it's a .deb and will install. | 12:55 |
| dean[w] | sorry i see the second link now | 12:55 |
| whiteguysamurai | google, i meant | 12:55 |
| whiteguysamurai | ubuntu tweak is a very useful tool for setting up your system. | 12:55 |

| dean[w] | Do I need to restart for this setting change to apply? | 12:56 |
| whiteguysamurai | no, it will just happen. | 12:56 |

| whiteguysamurai | right before you. | 12:56 |
| dean[w] | It didn't happen right before me whiteguysamurai :/ | 12:57 |
| hwilde | Wiplash, yeah windows is quite stupid - it has tons of flaws - but that means it is also quite fault tolerant. linux on the other hands would like you to have the correct gateway | 12:57 |
| whiteguysamurai | under the window manager settings. | 12:57 |
| elyob | Hi, Ubuntu 10 and my right hand screen (laptop screen) is "ghosting". | 12:57 |
| Wiplash | hwilde, yeh its strage because I could have sworn I used 255 previously, I guess not. Thanks a million anyway :) | 12:57 |
| winXPuser | elyob, ghosting? what does it stand for | 12:58 |
| dto | whiteguysamurai: i am also having tearing with the proprietary nvidia driver, but the vblank setting in compiz doesn't solve it. | 12:58 |
| whiteguysamurai | hmmmm. | 12:59 |
| Warlock072 | hey guys | 12:59 |
| elyob | Well, best way I could describe it. Basically it leaves the "last window open" on the desktop - even when app is closed. | 12:59 |
| whiteguysamurai | it might be a good idea to log out after you apply the setting. | 12:59 |
| dto | there's another sync to vblank setting in nvidia controls under opengl | 12:59 |

| ChrisC | That link does not answer my question. I installed xubuntu 9.10 because of the mic issue in lucid. Now I fixed that. I didn't need the other install so I used gparted to delete the partition. Now grub will not load. How do I reload Grub from access of a live CD. | 13:01 |

| dto | melrokz: i use pidgin for my irc/chat, it's the previous favorite and supports IRC well | 13:01 |
| melrokz | can empathy be fixed? Or should I install pidgin??? | 13:01 |
| Galerien | amr: I bet there is nothing wrong with your .bin | 13:01 |
| elyob | Saying that. I've just done "mirror image" on monitors, apply and then restore previous settings, and that has fixed it ... wierd | 13:01 |

| lassegul | dean[w]: killall nautilus and see if it does the same? | 13:07 |
| dean[w] | it doesn't lassegul | 13:08 |
| dean[w] | but that doesn't explain why it was using so much in the first place | 13:08 |
| Dr_Willis | Marsover: depends on what OS also. | 13:08 |
| DoWyzra | Ola bruderz | 13:08 |
| lassegul | dean[w]: ive had somewhat similar problems, nautilus spawning infinite windows on boot, and taking 100% cpu until i kill it | 13:08 |
| DoWyzra | I have one problem with 10.04 | 13:08 |
| airtonix | dean[w], nautilus is also renders your desktop | 13:08 |
| DoWyzra | the smb in gnome commander does not work | 13:09 |
| airtonix | dean[w], which means that its in daemon mode. | 13:09 |
| lassegul | dean[w]: that has usually been the result of me disabling nautilus from rendering desktop | 13:09 |
| _anonymouse_ | Dr_Willis, /usr/share/backgrounds/warty-final-ubuntu.png is right | 13:09 |
| Dr_Willis | _anonymouse_: ok. :) i thought that seemed.. weird.. i guess it was easer to change that file. then for them to change the scripts and settings | 13:09 |

| s3r3n1t7 | lassegul, the command you gave him also does some sanity checks to make sure it will go correctly. | 13:29 |
| jrib | ChrisC_: me reading the page to you won't be any faster. That's how you install grub. If it didn't work, you need to provide details about what exactly you did and what exactly the result was. You need to identify which step failed and why (did you make an incorrect assumption). I am not a mind reader. | 13:29 |
| winXPuser | desti, have a look in software center, many of them are free there | 13:29 |

| phox_ | Hi! I just put a new hard drive in my server, checked it's logical name, and then added "/dev/sdb /media/media ext3 defaults 0 2" at the end of fstab. Yet still when i try to acces it i need to enter my password. How do i make accesible without password? | 13:30 |

| idusty | Oooh passwords _ feels stupid _ | 13:31 |
| s3r3n1t7 | lassegul, you're right. sudo apt-get dist-upgrade only updates the packages, not to a new release. Upgrading to a new package is done with sudo do-release-upgrade. | 13:31 |
| phox_ | idusty: okey i'll try that.. | 13:31 |
| idusty | phox_; no ignore me. | 13:31 |
| idusty | phox_; if you are getting prompted for a pw it's probably a different issue >.< | 13:31 |

| phox_ | idusty: not it said only root could mount it :S I formatted it to ext3 yesterday, and it's a perfectly healthy disk | 13:32 |
| Cyclist2 | Hello, there! Yesterday I [finally...] had rsync working with cron; it seemed to be a simple case of using the options required for the job [in the crontab file] instead of relying on the alias [of rsync] I had set up for use with the CLI; that was the reason, it seemed, I could use the short script with the terminal but with cron it always failed; I left it for a while; later, I decided to create a new user group and made i | 13:32 |
| s3r3n1t7 | lassegul, upgrading to a new version ... not a new package ... | 13:32 |
| Cyclist2 | I almost forgot: I found an article a few minutes ago recomending us to copy the script to /root and then to create a root cronjob [all of which I did]; I was very disapointed to verify that not even that way is cron running the simple script... | 13:32 |
| winXPuser | wooj, ok, I redirect others to help you, seems that a sound driver is installed wrongly or something else wrong with os configuration | 13:32 |
| winXPuser | (no idea about these) | 13:32 |
| idusty | phox_; I'm assuming you added that line to your fstab. So you amended the mount by typing "sudo mount -a" right? | 13:33 |
| pure_hate | Cyclist2, root should never run a cron job | 13:33 |
| zetheroo | why does ssh give access to my entire home folder when I specify only a folder within Home? | 13:33 |
| dsaintz | cloudmonkee: try using virtuabox | 13:33 |
| idusty | phox_; Personally I'm hesitant to add anything to the fstab till I've had it mounted manually and running fine first :P | 13:33 |
| phox_ | idusty: yeah i changed it in fstab. Then i just tried to enter it directly through nautilus. | 13:33 |
| jrib | Cyclist2: did you forget a newline at the end of your crontab? Did you get mail from cron (you may need to install an mta)? Did you redirect the output of the command to some file and see if you got any output? | 13:33 |
| iceroot | zetheroo: because you have to use chroot there is no other way to stop that | 13:34 |
| winXPuser | thanks everyone, it downloaded, bye | 13:34 |
| jae | Okay... upgrade to 10.04 finished. And window manager (whatever the fuck that one is) is wonky: how do I get the close/min/max icons back to the *right* (they're on the left) | 13:34 |
| wooj | winXPuser, No, sound works fine, just not in apple trailers in my browser. Flash videos are fine, movies in vlc and totem standalone are fine, heck, the exact same trailer if I right click in my browser and select 'play in movie player' work perfectly. I *only* dont have sound when I play it in my browser. So its not my sound drivers. | 13:34 |
| zetheroo | iceroot: chroot? will that block access to the rest of my Home folder? | 13:34 |

| melodie_ | hi | 13:40 |
| melodie_ | do anyone know how to remove automatic mount on windows partitions, in Lucid ? | 13:40 |
| unya | hi, could someone tall me how to check whether BIOS enabled VT-x? | 13:41 |
| melodie_ | and also to fix more restrictive permissions ? as it is the user has all rights and all files belong to the user... | 13:41 |
| melodie_ | unya, in the BIOS, advanced settings section ? | 13:41 |
| CloudMonkee | anyone know the name of virtual box to download it via command line? | 13:41 |
| s3r3n1t7 | CloudMonkee, virtualbox-ose | 13:42 |
| CloudMonkee | hence virtualbox doesn't work | 13:42 |
| unya | melodie, there is no opion in BIOS | 13:42 |
| iceroot | unya: cat /proc/cpuinfo | 13:42 |
| idusty | melodie_; sorry that is a bit out of my mounting knowledge... -hehehe mounting knowledge- | 13:42 |
| Pici | CloudMonkee: virtualbox-ose | 13:42 |
| lassegul | stanman246: a quick google search reveals that openvz kernels are all non 2.6.3x ,and 10.04 wont boot with kernels older than 2.6.3x | 13:42 |
| CloudMonkee | s3r3n1t7, ty | 13:42 |
| unya | CloudMonkee, VirtualBox, I think | 13:42 |
| melodie_ | idusty, hehehe : unmounting knowledge, or not mounting knowledge | 13:42 |
| lassegul | stanman246: i know very little about it though | 13:42 |
| melodie_ | idusty, so you can't | 13:42 |
| melodie_ | no luck ! | 13:42 |
| Slartibart | Doesn't gnome save desktop icon positions between restarts? | 13:43 |
| jrib | Oins: use a for loop to start a job for each pdf maybe? | 13:43 |
| idusty | melodie_; No you probably can, I just don't know >.< I know that auto-mount is a bit of an issue with desktop, sometimes. I thought it was just a further option within the fstab >.< | 13:43 |
| Cammy_ | Any ideas why gnome-settings-daemon won't run at startup? (if I add it to startup apps manually, it starts then dies) | 13:43 |
| unya | iceroot, i've checked the information in /proc/cpuinfo, My CPU has the feature of VT-x, but I don't know how to check the BIOS status | 13:44 |
| zetheroo | iceroot: just checked ... I can open any image in /home/username/ | 13:44 |
| Oins | jrib: yes, but i think to remember that in past i got several jobs, not only one big | 13:44 |
| matteo1990 | I have choosed to start Ubuntu directly with my account so when i log in i have to put the password in the keyring. Any way to skip this? | 13:45 |
| phox_ | I have a problem with sharing to a win-pc over the local network using samba. I can acces the ubuntu-server, but when i try to acces a certain hard drive is says that i am not allowed to acces it, or that the network path doesnt exist (have had different results). What could be the problem? | 13:45 |
| idusty | melodie_; changing permissions should just be a chown command I would have thought too! But I don't understand your request fully. | 13:45 |
| dto | hi. compiz doesn't start automatically on login. the compiz fusion icon thinks compiz is running, but it doesn't work until i select it again. | 13:45 |

| iceroot | zetheroo: then dont use r for others | 13:46 |
| phox_ | idusty: haha, yeah hi. | 13:46 |
| iceroot | unya: never seen than you can disable vt-x in bios | 13:46 |

| melodie_ | idusty, I realized that the windows boot partition and system partition are not only mounted automatically but they are readable and writable by the ordinary user as well. which is very wrong ! | 13:46 |
| phox_ | idusty: havent checked that file, did it in the graphic thingy in administration. ill check that | 13:46 |
| defswork | dto, delete all your saved sessions | 13:46 |
| KinKing | matteo1990, You wanna skip the login screen? | 13:47 |

| idusty | phox_; Oh ok sorry I only know command line :P | 13:47 |
| melodie_ | the first ordinary user : my 10 years old son, will start learning to deal with it, but I don't want to restore his windows if he screws it because of this kind of stupid detail | 13:47 |

| abhijain | hello | 13:47 |
| abhijain | i am deleted my pannel and now i am unable to connect internet from mobile bluetooth | 13:48 |
| melodie_ | idusty, what suprises me is not to find any sort of easy to go way to fix this | 13:48 |
| idusty | melodie_; Ahhh.. All I can suggest is being extremely careful with file permissions! I can't give much advice as I'm still learning such myself! | 13:48 |
| defswork | rm -R ~/.config/gnome-session/saved-session | 13:48 |
| melodie_ | incredible | 13:48 |
| phox_ | idusty: yeah i checked it's the right path.. | 13:48 |
| melodie_ | idusty, I may put a "chmod 700" on the directory /media | 13:49 |
| defswork | dto, if you have the same issue as I did - do that rm, log out and in again and then turn on compiz | 13:49 |
| phox_ | idusty: and acces it set to everyone | 13:49 |
| melodie_ | the easiest may be to get rid of the mounting of theses directories | 13:49 |
| dto | defswork: what should i delete? i don't know where the sessions are. | 13:49 |
| idusty | meldoie_; Totally your choice :P I'm heaps careful with permissions. I've messed them up with windows, and had issues... Let alone with a pretty strict system like Linux! Lol | 13:49 |
| defswork | dto, rm -R ~/.config/gnome-session/saved-session | 13:49 |

| abhijain | any one help me i am deleted my pannel and no i am unable to connect my internet connection becoz i lost my wireless icon from pannel | 13:50 |
| idusty | phox_; Hrm! Ok. If you go to a command line and actually type the same path within the smb.conf file, you can see it? | 13:50 |
| dto | defswork: brb | 13:50 |
| melodie_ | morgan, that is also an idea | 13:50 |
| ChogyDan | salil: Im not sure myself, but I just add more stars, */*.o | 13:50 |
| idusty | phox_; What other lines were mentioned within the smb.conf file. Was it browseable=yes? >.< | 13:50 |
| melodie_ | morgan, I should configure it in fstab to override the default choices : right ? | 13:50 |
| morgan | melodie_: Edit the /etc/fstab and add the ro option. | 13:50 |
| phox_ | idusty: yeah writable, browseable and guest ok = yes :) | 13:51 |
| abhijain | how can i get default pannel | 13:51 |
| rpc | do you have to use DRI for radeon 7500 under 9.10? | 13:51 |
| melodie_ | morgan, I have to add a whole line : nothing is configured there. It should not even mount the windows boot partition ! | 13:51 |
| idusty | phox_; Ok. Hm. What version of Ubuntu are you using? | 13:51 |
| Aidar-Nagato | mmm... looks like ubuntu thinks that my touchpad is on /dev/input/event8 (/var/log/Xorg.0.log), but if i try cat /dev/input/event8 there is nothing, i tried to add touchpad to /etc/X11/xorg.conf with /dev/psaux nothing changes. however i can use touchpad now, but without scrolling (i can't change its settings at all) | 13:51 |
| matteo1990 | KinKing, I have yust skipped this because i log in directly with my account but it's asked me to enter the password for the keyring, and i dunno how to set it automatically. | 13:51 |

| melodie_ | morgan, I have almost finished updating, so I'll look if ntfs-3g is installed, from within Synaptic, just after | 13:52 |
| phox_ | idusty: 9.04, or whatever it is. The second newest! The sharing is fine on the other disk, so im thinking it has to do with restrictions of the whole disk | 13:52 |
| defswork | salil, find . -name '*.o' -print0 | xargs -0 rm | 13:52 |
| lassegul | abhijain: you'll have to log in and out after that | 13:52 |
| idusty | phox_; Is it server, or just desktop? | 13:52 |
| dto | defswork: ok i did that and logged back in, but still had to start compiz manually. | 13:52 |
| KinKing | matteo1990, Did you set it under System -> Administration -> Login screen? | 13:52 |
| idusty | phox_; Ah! That's certainly a possibility! Unfortunately I do not know a lot about permissions if that appears to be your issue. | 13:53 |
| defswork | dto, yeah but maybe now it works if you log out and back in | 13:53 |
| dto | also, i tried adding the compiz icon to startup programs, and i couldn't figure out the executable name. | 13:53 |
| dto | defswork: ok i will try in a moment | 13:53 |
| lassegul | abhijain: hold on, that info i gave u seems to not work anymore | 13:53 |
| idusty | phox_; With my 9.04 install, I had to restart the samba daemon to actually reflect changes to the smb.conf file. But if you can see the share, it just won't let you access it.. | 13:53 |

| geekphreak | abhijain: what did you do now :) | 13:54 |

| dto | defswork: i see vdpau packages in synaptic, but no program. | 13:55 |
| phox_ | idusty: okey, which file should i check? | 13:55 |
| wooj | my totem browser plugin has no sound when playing a video, but if I download and play the exact same file in totem, I magically have sound. Anyone have any ideas why that might be? | 13:55 |

| idusty | phox_; I'm not sure how the log files work. I'm assuming, as I don't generally map to other workstations from my server, that each of the log files represents the remote computer accessing the server. | 13:56 |
| mbou | hi, I need to get tomorrow's date so a user pointed me to a program called simply "date", if I run it from a terminal with date --date='tomorrow' it works, but the date is displayed using my Swedish locale and I need English, is there any way to change that?

| KinKing | matteo1990, Hmm, do you have any programs that are starting automatically when you log back in? | 13:56 |
| lassegul | dto: remember that you will have tearing on one monitor if you have two monitors connected. last time i checked there was no way around this | 13:56 |
| melodie_ | morgan, what would be the options in fstab to *not mount* theses ? | 13:57 |

| geekphreak | Medion: useradd command | 14:07 |
| geekphreak | or adduser | 14:07 |
| idusty | phox_; Be sure to keep us up to date, sir.. or ma'am! | 14:07 |
| KinKing | matteo1990, You can try asking that to everyone since I'm not really experienced, but you have a more accurate question now =P | 14:07 |

| phox_ | idusty: it worked again when i wrote "sudo mount -a" in terminal. Before i did that i couldnt even acces the hard drive! Maybe i should add that so it automaticcly runs at start? | 14:12 |

| ubottu | ema_: 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! | 14:12 |
| ema_ | i am having problems to compile c++ programs. anyone who can help | 14:12 |
| idusty | phox_; As long as the mount is correct within your fstab, you shouldn't have to run "sudo mount -a". It should mount upon startup. | 14:12 |
| s3r3n1t7 | !compile | ema_ | 14:13 |
| geekphreak | ema_: please ask, thank you | 14:13 |
| ubottu | ema_: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first) | 14:13 |
| Pici | Medion: Because you use useradd not 'adduser', useradd does not setup all the convenciences that you normally get with a user, like the a sane default shell, etc. | 14:13 |
| phox_ | idusty: Hm, weird. It just says that only root could mount it.. | 14:13 |
| ema_ | i did try to compile but i am getting errors | 14:13 |
| matteo1990 | KinKing, in my opinion the keyring is a gnome feature, related with another program but i should be able to let it starts on his own | 14:13 |
| phox_ | idusty: and i copied the line in my fstab from the ubuntu wiki so it's correct | 14:13 |
| s3r3n1t7 | idusty, No. Fstab does only automount when you set the option for it, otherwise it will be mounted on first access (in my experience). | 14:13 |
| C_Classic | Does anyone know how to use a wireless device which is just recognized by hwinfo (meanst that it doesn't appear at iwconfig)? My wireless card doesn't work anymore since I updatet to 10.04 LTS | 14:13 |
| idusty | phox_; "sudo mount -a"? And it asked for sudo couldn't? | 14:14 |
| geekphreak | ema_: what error? | 14:14 |
| Pici | Medion: Copy the contents of /etc/skel/ into that user's home directory | 14:14 |
| idusty | phox_; Ahh! Possibly correct.. Obviously you changed the device location etc? | 14:14 |
| ema_ | seems to the compiler doesnt recognise c++ headers | 14:14 |

| red | I'm having real bad FPS issues with Compiz, using nvidia-current and this has been present since I changed from Lucid Lynx alpha to Release. Yesterday after fiddling aroudn I noticed that starting compiz with --loose-binding fixed it - but now it's no longer helping at all. | 14:53 |
| mati | in Linux there is no such built-in tools like in xp?? | 14:54 |
| red | With metacity the framerate is very smooth. | 14:54 |
| bloopletech | mati: no, but they are pretty easy to install AFAIK | 14:54 |
| choi | i'm having trouble with my video. images are too sharp. the nvidia settings for digital sharpening is already at 0, i think this has something to do with the driver | 14:54 |

| bloopletech | mati: remember that rempote desktop wasn't even all there in xp home edition | 14:54 |
| al-tabq | bloopletech, so you know how i get the textline back in 10.04? | 14:54 |
| bloopletech | silv3r_m00n, possibly it's installed as an alias to another font but I'm just guessing | 14:54 |
| bloopletech | al-tabq, actually I don't sorry | 14:55 |
| mati | ok I understand I'm install vnc | 14:55 |
| silv3r_m00n | I installed msttcorefonts | 14:55 |

| red | window effects etc come from compiz | 15:04 |
| red | what I want to know is how to resolve the issue - some pointers what to check | 15:04 |
| erUSUL | dekroning: no you have to configure your Xsession to run only the app you want (full screen mode becouse without a wm it is the only option) | 15:04 |
| soreau | red: Yes but there is an option to have metacity do it's compositing which basically just means window shadows | 15:04 |

| EntityReborn | soreau, he means he already knew that, he stated it | 15:07 |

| bloopletech | soreau, but I wasn't 100% what the status was | 15:12 |
| red | Well, this is how I fix tearing on nvidia: set vsync on from drivers, select sync device as my TV (using monitor+tv), then go to compiz settings and disable refresh rate detect and check vblank sync, and set the refresh rate manually to my TVs 60 (120, 180 is fine aswell, just have it update at the same dividable). | 15:12 |

| cbo_ | i've changed the lcd screen of my eeepc which is 1024x600. The problem is, the replacement is not exactly the one i needed and although it fits well, i cannot see the top first 5 or 6 pixel lines, because they are hidden behind the screen bezel. My question is: could i trick Xorg to think as if the display was 1024x590 and ignore those lines? I prefer to lose them than having gnome panel cut in a half. Thanks for your reply. | 15:52 |

| mgj | How do i go about adding all .* dirs to ubuntu one? I could go ahead and do it for each one, but selecting multiple -> synchronize on ubuntu one does not seem to be possible? | 15:53 |
| boxenlude | fax : sorry, but I can't help you with this sicne I haven't installed ubuntu on a Mac personally | 15:53 |
| fax | so I'm screwed basically? :p | 15:53 |
| ActionParsnip | cbo_: if you set the res in xorg.conf it may work, is there no OSD on the monitor to squish the display? | 15:53 |
| boxenlude | fax : basically :) | 15:53 |
| fax | I guess I will just wait until the next ubuntu | 15:53 |
| boxenlude | fax : but there is a way to to that, I'm sure there is | 15:53 |
| boxenlude | fax : search for "Installing Ubuntu on a Mac" or sth. | 15:54 |
| boxenlude | fax : it is different from installing on a normal pc | 15:54 |
| cbo_ | ActionParnship: I'm using 9.10 all xorg configuration is automatic i think. As it is a netbook display there are no controls to alter the image. | 15:54 |
| fax | yeah I wish I had a normal computer beacuse linux would work fine on that but I can't really buy a new one since the one I have is not broken or anything :( | 15:55 |

Help! | 16:04 |
| Jobob | tim please use the window that popped up in your tabs. | 16:05 |

| stib | using Karmic I was having problems with my audio - constantly popping and clicking. I looked at /var/log/messages and there was about 20Mb of: 'pulseaudio[898]: authkey.c: Failed to open cookie file '/home/telly/.esd_auth' I changed the permissions of the .esd_aut file to a+rw and it has fixed the problem, but I'm wondering what that file i for and why the permissions were wrong. | 16:05 |
| Jobob | tim test successful | 16:05 |
| tim______ | fine | 16:05 |
| Jobob | please now open the window i open and we chat from there | 16:05 |

| boxenlude | fax : maybe a dell inspiron... | 16:06 |
| Lvrboy | hmmm | 16:06 |
| boxenlude | bye | 16:06 |
| fierman | stib: pulseaudio is broken in karmic.. even if devvers say it is not.. you might want to deinstall it | 16:06 |
| ph0xide | configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables | 16:06 |
| ph0xide | how do i install packages needed by this | 16:06 |
| tim______ | Jobob, there's no other window in xchat then the query window i just send the test message in | 16:06 |
| duffydack | How odd.. the show desktop compiz plugin no longer works. Its been fine since, forever... I set it to top left screen to enable it.. anyone else? can you test? | 16:06 |
| theadmin | ph0xide: Do you at least have build-essential? | 16:06 |
| ph0xide | it's a vps i bought let me check | 16:07 |

| ph0xide | theadmin, nope that must be the problem compiling now | 16:07 |
| theadmin | ph0xide: ;D That's the first thing any developer should get | 16:08 |
| fierman | stib: pulse can be used easily to give apps access to sound, or to route it over network for instance | 16:08 |
| stib | fax: if you want to run ubuntu on a lower spec computer check out lubuntu, a lightweight version of ubuntu | 16:08 |
| theadmin | stib: way too late | 16:08 |
| stib | fierman: thanks. | 16:08 |
| theadmin | stib: (07:05:33 PM) fax left the room (quit: Quit: Lost terminal). | 16:09 |
| fierman | stib: just one problem with pulse these days though.. gdm sort of depends on it | 16:09 |
| fierman | which is stupid | 16:09 |
| stib | I'm using the box for mythtv, so it might depend on it too | 16:09 |
| theadmin | fierman: heck yeah, the whole Ubuntu is built around Pulse these days | 16:09 |
| fierman | (better remove gdm as well :) ) | 16:09 |
| fierman | theadmin: not quite | 16:09 |
| creat0r | How could i know the usage of the CPU for each application and program installed on my box? | 16:09 |
| theadmin | fierman: Well, not the whole, but the sound bits | 16:09 |
| theadmin | creat0r: Install something like htop | 16:10 |
| fierman | theadmin: works fine here without pulseaudio | 16:10 |
| creat0r | theadmin: i need the command line that monitor the cpu and Ram and other stuff | 16:10 |
| theadmin | fierman: I never messed with it ever since I ruined gnome by deleting gnome-panel in an attempt to replace it with gnome-shell | 16:10 |
| theadmin | creat0r: htop is a CLI application, just in case, so it should of a do. | 16:10 |
| creat0r | theadmin: Ok!! | 16:11 |
| theadmin | fierman: That rendered gnome un-logginable | 16:11 |
| rbellamy | when I run a bash script using sudo, some of the commands are not running as root... is there something special I need to do to ensure the root user is used for all commands in a bash script? | 16:11 |
| stib | Creat0r: also ps, for example: ps aux | 16:11 |
| theadmin | rbellamy: ...just... run the script as root. | 16:11 |
| theadmin | rbellamy: sudo bash somefile.bsh | 16:11 |
| kombucha | I had a testing install of Lucid that I upgraded when Lucid officially came out using safe-upgrade. Then as soon as safe-upgrade was done I ran it again, and this time it installed the new headers..... | 16:12 |
| rbellamy | theadmin, I'm "sudo ./somefile.bash" | 16:12 |
| rbellamy | theadmin, shouldn't that work? | 16:12 |
| theadmin | rbellamy: Technically, it exicutes them all as root unless you told it not to do so in script. Unless they messed up something. | 16:12 |
| theadmin | rbellamy: Well... it should, yeah | 16:12 |
| kombucha | ...then I ran dist-upgrade and it gave me a nother list of packages to install and upgrade with a score of 257 | 16:12 |
| rbellamy | theadmin, I wrote the script myself, so there's a high probability that I screwed something up.... | 16:12 |
| kombucha | just wanted to kind of check in and see if there is anything I really need to pay specific attention to here | 16:12 |
| Glowball | Since I updated to Lucid (fresh install), disk checks on startup take ages (well, more than 10 minutes, which is extremely long compared to Karmic (less than 1 minute)) | 16:12 |
| theadmin | rbellamy: Maybe yeah, who knows... | 16:13 |
| GodricBrutus | i messed up my sound somehow. i did everything i couls do from !sound, and it didnt work. i still have no sound. can anyone help with my issue? | 16:13 |
| kombucha | or if I needed to reboot after safe-upgrade installed the new headers but before running dist-upgrade | 16:13 |

| rbellamy | http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/aq2RHs77 | 16:13 |
| kombucha | in fact I thought if you had already done safe-upgrade, dist-upgrade shouldn't have anything left to do? | 16:13 |

| boxenlude | java jas moved to partners repository AFAIK | 16:13 |

| bazhang | jester7, it does | 16:14 |
| IdleOne | kombucha: there have been a few updates to some packages in the past week or so | 16:14 |
| Pici | kombucha: dist-upgrade installs packages that have dependencies that are new packages, safe-upgrade will not. | 16:14 |
| rbellamy | theadmin, so, the wget runs as root, but the tar command does not... | 16:14 |
| theadmin | rbellamy: Hm. Looks fine. | 16:14 |
| jester7 | hmm, i've tried it both with the beta and the release, and i get "disk doesn't have enough space" | 16:14 |
| theadmin | rbellamy: A crazy idea crossed my mind... maybe root does not have some of those command locations in $PATH? | 16:14 |
| Dr_Willis | the root user can have a diffrent path. depending on how you became 'root' | 16:15 |
| Pici | kombucha: So, you should always be using dist-upgrade if you want to keep your release up-to-date. This command will never upgrade you to the next release of ubuntu unless you modify your sources.list file. (And doing that to upgrade to a new release is not reccomended/supporteD) | 16:15 |
| rbellamy | theadmin, tar is in its normal location | 16:15 |

| bloopletech | Either that, or the problem is in my player - I'm using VLC on mac, mplayer on linux, and CCCP on windows | 16:35 |
| danutz | it has to be on my network? | 16:36 |
| geekphreak | hacked_kernel: that will allow you to do it :d | 16:36 |

| Xethron | geekphreak, desktop and notebook | 16:36 |
| danutz | or in place of servername I type the ip | 16:36 |

| jadakren | cchapman, dansguardian ? | 16:38 |
| Dr_Willis | cchapman: i recall some people mentioning the TOR docs and some other guides suggesting alternatives to privoxy, other projexts grown from the privoxy codebase. Use Privoxy if you like it., | 16:39 |
| geekphreak | hacked_kernel: gnome-do can do it too :) | 16:39 |
| cchapman | i like just need some help with changing the blocked redirect | 16:39 |

| theadmin | ubottu: RootSudo | justin22885 | 16:42 |
| ubottu | justin22885: sudo is a command to run command-line programs with superuser privileges ("root") (also see !cli ) . Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE). If you're unable to execute commands with sudo see: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo | 16:42 |
| danutz | what php editors do you recomand? | 16:42 |

| geekphreak | goatfarm: nothing else i can think of sorry :) | 16:42 |

| Skeptic | jadakren, terminal | 16:44 |

| mikebeecham | hi guys...I've just carried out an update and now all the fonts in Google Chrome look like system fonts....is this an issue or can I get them looking correct again? | 16:46 |
| geekphreak | Wavesonics: different tools for different options | 16:46 |
| theadmin | zhxk: Any of them are fine, just install some packages. | 16:46 |
| jadakren | Wavesonics, system > help ? | 16:46 |
| jcrawford | anyone? | 16:46 |
| Guest70764 | geekphreak, I did a sudo make and then a make install. I do not see an "install" file however. | 16:46 |
| Wavesonics | OS Version tool? | 16:46 |
| zhxk | LTS better or not? | 16:47 |
| Wavesonics | i mainly want to know 32/64 bit (i didnt install this) | 16:47 |
| geekphreak | Wavesonics: uname -a | 16:47 |
| Wavesonics | geekphreak, ah thanks man | 16:47 |
| theadmin | zhxk: LTS means the version gets longer support, that is all. | 16:47 |
| Keaton | ALSA stopped working on my netbook after I upgraded to 10.04. Can someone help me troubleshoot the problem? | 16:48 |
| BluesKaj | Guest70764, usually there is a configure command required before make , make install and there should be a readme with instructions for the install . | 16:48 |
| zleap | Keaton, can you restart alsa ? | 16:48 |
| cmug | so when I pass to usb-creator my mini.iso, nothing happens ? | 16:48 |
| zhxk | theadmin:the loger support the better? | 16:48 |
| JediMaster | how do you change a partition file system type without reformatting it in parted? | 16:48 |
| cmug | unetbootin writes the file to usb ok, but the USB has a kernel panic during boot | 16:48 |
| geekphreak | cmug: it wont recognize mini.iso :) | 16:48 |
| Keaton | zleap, To do that I do 'cd /etc/init.d' and 'alsa restart' or something to that effect, right? | 16:49 |
| cmug | geekphreak, figures | 16:49 |
| Guest70764 | BluesKaj, I am following the readme file. I will look at it again to see if I missed something. | 16:49 |
| mikebeecham | hi guys...I've just carried out an update and now all the fonts in Google Chrome look like system fonts....is this an issue or can I get them looking correct again? | 16:49 |
| zleap | Keaton, think so | 16:49 |
| theadmin | zhxk: Well, depends on your needs. If you are a huge building with a ton of computers, use the LTS allrighty, if you are a home user, use the normal release (LTS and normal releases match right now, Lucid) | 16:49 |
| geekphreak | unetbootin worked for me cmug | 16:49 |
| cmug | geekphreak, so manual way is the only way to get mini.iso on a usb easily? | 16:49 |
| cmug | geekphreak, hmm | 16:49 |
| JediMaster | got a drive handed to me that should have an NTFS partition but it's "unknown" according to parted, want to just set the partition type and mount it without reformatting it | 16:49 |
| geekphreak | cmug: i did not choose the mini.iso, i let it download :) | 16:49 |
| goatfarm | I have a good copy of 10.04 server but after 5 times, i can't get it to boot after the install. Any ideas? | 16:50 |
| Keaton | zleap, restarted it, checking for functionality. | 16:50 |
| theadmin | JediMaster: mount -t ntfs /media/ntfsdrive | 16:50 |
| jadakren | Wavesonics, gnome-system-monitor (or system > admin > system monitor) then system tab | 16:50 |
| theadmin | JediMaster: Make sure you have ntfsprogs and ntfs-3g | 16:50 |
| JediMaster | theadmin, true, but I want to be able to set it on the partition table too | 16:50 |
| sipior | JediMaster: have you tried mounting it without setting the type? | 16:50 |
| JediMaster | sipior, yeah it complains it needs a FS type | 16:50 |
| Wavesonics | jadakren, ah this is exactly what i wanted! Thanks :D :D | 16:50 |
| Keaton | zleap, No good, still can't get any output. | 16:50 |
| zhxk | theadmin:why LTS? | 16:50 |
| sipior | JediMaster: but that's the filesystem type, not the partition type. try the -t switch to mount. | 16:50 |
| theadmin | zhxk: LTS stands for Long Term Support. | 16:50 |
| theadmin | zhxk: LTS'es are used primarily by biiiig organisations | 16:51 |
| jadakren | Wavesonics, there is another that you can install which gives something like device manager in windows. i forget what it is called though | 16:51 |
| zleap | i take it it is using alsa and not something like pulseaudio | 16:51 |
| geekphreak | jadakren: conky? | 16:51 |
| theadmin | jadakren: gparted? | 16:51 |
| zhxk | features on LTS is tested on normal release, isnt? | 16:51 |
| theadmin | zhxk: ...well... yes... | 16:51 |
| theadmin | zhxk: To some extent. | 16:51 |
| jadakren | geekphreak, theadmin no its agtk version of hwinfo | 16:52 |
| rocket16 | Which application should I use to add Subtitles to Flv videos? Is there a Plugin for PiTiVi? Or should I use some other application? | 16:52 |
| Keaton | zleap, It's Rhythmbox I'm testing sound with since the sound manager doesn't do that anymore. | 16:52 |
| theadmin | jadakren: Ah, sry. | 16:52 |
| nukelacity | okay i know i was just here a minute ago with a similar question but id like to know if its possible to un-blacklist a graphics card in ubuntu 10.04 because i know which compiz effects do and dont work on my box from expierience in dreamlinux lol | 16:52 |

| theadmin | rocket16: Anyway... why not just write an .srt file then convert the video to a Matroska stream? | 16:53 |
| geekphreak | cmug: choose lucid netinstall | 16:53 |
| stib | rocket16 ffmpeg could probably do it | 16:53 |

| Dr_Willis | noladesi: its possible the drivers and stuff for the netbook in win7 have better optmizations. | 16:53 |
| JediMaster | theadmin, sipior, mount -t ntfs didn't work, "NTFS signature is missing." I guess the partition is pretty fried | 16:53 |
| phakhawat | สวัสดีครับ | 16:53 |
| noladesi | i was just wondering which was better on batt life | 16:53 |
| zleap | Keaton, not sure, i am still on 9.04, i can't suggest much else, perhaps someone can be more helpful | 16:54 |
| Keaton | theadmin, I was actually very impressed with Windows 7 compared to Microsoft's other work. Sure, it's closed source, but it's stable and fairly secure. | 16:54 |
| noladesi | thanks dwill | 16:54 |
| theadmin | noladesi: heck, with it my battery lasted just 30 minutes while it lasts 2 hours on Lucid (and this is NOT nbr) | 16:54 |
| Dr_Willis | noladesi: but linux uses less cpu and can be tweaked a bit more.. so i would have to say it depends on how you use the netbook. | 16:54 |
| Keaton | zleap, Alright, thanks for the help anyway. | 16:54 |
| Xethron | geekphreak, Well I would like to download one for a few computers. Was just wondering if I should download both? I have two laptops and two computers. | 16:54 |

| zleap | Keaton, np | 16:54 |
| geekphreak | Xethron: 32 bit or 64 bits? | 16:54 |
| noladesi | you think there is a big diff between desktop ubu and nbr? | 16:55 |
| Wavesonics | there is a good article comparing battery life times with WIn7 vs Ubuntu 10.04 and Win7 wins in every case, some times by ALOT | 16:55 |
| noladesi | as far as batt life? | 16:55 |
| sipior | JediMaster: did you try "-t ntfs-3g"? | 16:55 |
| noladesi | i love the new nbr | 16:55 |

| tesseracter | hi, im setting up ssh server on my machine, ssh localhost works, but my manual IP setup to 192.168.1.55 doesnt work. the dns and such seem right, ping works, but ssh doesnt. | 17:09 |
| perlsyntax | if it happon again i email ubuntu. | 17:09 |
| roberto_ | bazhang: yea but you can change keyboard mappings with just a keypress using the standard keyboard controls. why use ibus? | 17:09 |
| stib | new2linuxguy: I use partimage | 17:09 |
| trism | roberto_: a different keyboard mapping won't do it when you have thousands of different characters to choose from | 17:09 |
| New2LinuxGuy | Is your SSH port 22 open or are you using a different SSH port? | 17:09 |
| jatt | ? I use evolution to connect to my office's exchange server (does it make a difference if I have few or many mails). I mean a window pop ups asking for my password and _that_ window hangs, no other window is shown... | 17:10 |
| stib | new2linuxguy: comes on the gparted livecd, good for first aid | 17:10 |
| roberto_ | Tristam: so the input methods from iBus are more complex than keyboard defintions can be ? or are they for different physical devices? | 17:10 |
| tesseracter | New2LinuxGuy: me? netstat says :22 is open for localhost and 0.0.0.0 | 17:10 |
| geekphreak | jatt: not really, but i wanted to be sure, if we reset it, you wont come after me :) | 17:10 |
| roberto_ | bazhang: why are there keyboard mappings for french and english in ibus ? | 17:10 |
| daker | geekphreak, http://paste.ubuntu.com/429599/ | 17:11 |
| jatt | The box says: | 17:11 |
| jatt | Enter Password for ... | 17:11 |
| jatt | [x] Remember this password | 17:11 |
| poppo | ghk | 17:11 |
| jatt | but I cannot enter anything, clicking on OK doesn't work the window is not responsive | 17:11 |
| geekphreak | daker: same error, tried to purge and reinstall? | 17:12 |
| daker | geekphreak, twice | 17:12 |
| chewbranca | heh... for anyone using xinerama who is thinking about upgrading to 10.04... DON'T!!!!!!!!!! | 17:12 |
| theadmin | chewbranca: More then a week since the release. Most updated already. | 17:13 |
| chewbranca | regression in xorg | 17:13 |
| chewbranca | theadmin, yeah I made that mistake last night, what a PITA | 17:13 |
| === jexmex_ is now known as jexmex | ||
| chewbranca | someone changed the cartesian variables storing the x/y-axis positions of your monitors to an unsigned int... | 17:13 |
| theadmin | chewbranca: That regression... It came due to some huge memory leak issue they only managed to fix by dropping some (may be important, never figured) stuff | 17:13 |
| chewbranca | whoops | 17:14 |
| chewbranca | that's gotta be something different | 17:14 |
| chewbranca | no way an unsigned int versus a signed int is the cause of a huge memory leak | 17:14 |
| theadmin | chewbranca: Well, good that I'm not a xinerama user... find Lucid pretty sweeeeet. | 17:14 |
| Lord_Rahl | ? when I close out of empathy does it still run in the background so I will still get im's | 17:14 |
| danutz | does anyone know apache irc channel? | 17:15 |
| theadmin | danutz: #httpd | 17:15 |
| llutz | danutz: #httpd | 17:15 |
| silvermoon | are there font problems in lucid lynx | 17:15 |
| daker | geekphreak, nothing ? | 17:15 |
| chewbranca | theadmin, yeah I'm finally getting to actually enjoy it this morning, was up until 2am fixing my dev box last night after upgrading | 17:15 |
| theadmin | silvermoon: Depends. In some apps, maybe (a font problem with Chrome has been discovered a few minutes ago in this channel) | 17:15 |
| chewbranca | now that its all working though it is a very nice looking upgrade | 17:15 |
| Lord_Rahl | silvermoon, none that I have seen | 17:15 |
| silvermoon | in 9.10 fonts were very good , and similar to windows , but after upgrading to 10.04 i see that fonts are different and not that beautiful | 17:15 |
| roberto_ | what provides "md5" on cli ? | 17:16 |
| silvermoon | in kde droid fonts are taller for the same size | 17:16 |
| theadmin | roberto_: md5sum | 17:16 |
| Lord_Rahl | silvermoon, I have install it over 4 computer laptops and netbooks | 17:16 |
| roberto_ | theadmin: <3 | 17:16 |
| lahera | oi | 17:16 |
| silvermoon | may be , but there is something fishy | 17:16 |
| theadmin | roberto_: I dunno the version, sorry :P | 17:16 |
| silvermoon | i mean wierd | 17:17 |
| roberto_ | theadmin: no taht was perfect, thank you | 17:17 |
| theadmin | roberto_: Then what was that "less than 3" thing | 17:17 |
| roberto_ | lahera: ola :) | 17:17 |
| Lord_Rahl | silvermoon, what are you font set in appearance? | 17:17 |
| roberto_ | theadmin: :) that was a heart | 17:17 |
| theadmin | roberto_: oh... lol | 17:17 |
| silvermoon | droid , arial , verdana all of them look different | 17:17 |
| Gesi | hi | 17:18 |
| tesseracter | ping 192.168.1.55 works, ssh localhost works, but ssh foo@192.168.1.55 doesnt work. ideas? | 17:18 |
| geekphreak | tesseracter: port open? | 17:18 |
| catvsrat | kick ass | 17:18 |
| theadmin | tesseracter: Unsure. But maybe something blocks inbound connections on ssh port for that adress. | 17:18 |
| llutz | tesseracter: sshd is up and running on .55? | 17:18 |
| Lord_Rahl | tesseracter, ssh installed | 17:18 |
| theadmin | catvsrat: watch teh language. | 17:19 |
| tesseracter | geekphreak: yep, port open on portscan of 192.168.1.55 | 17:19 |
| Gesi | i have just installed ubuntu and when i open some videos with google chrome a mesage pops up and writes: MISSING PLUGIN . I found that the missing plug in is divx player can sb help me ? | 17:19 |
| tesseracter | Lord_Rahl: i said that ssh localhost works, therefor, ssh is installed. | 17:19 |
| jpds | tesseracter: ssh -vv foo@192.168.1.55 any useful? | 17:19 |
| geekphreak | tesseracter: you have to do port forwarding in router :) | 17:19 |
| llutz | tesseracter: have you access to .55? check "lsof -i :22" | 17:19 |
| catvsrat | i need to hack a server in my hack fest | 17:19 |
| theadmin | Gesi: I think totem-style plugins provide that. | 17:19 |
| jpds | catvsrat: Not this channel. | 17:19 |
| theadmin | catvsrat: ...Can't help you with illegal activities. | 17:19 |
| catvsrat | alright | 17:20 |
| theadmin | catvsrat: Infact, you should be reported to your local police :D | 17:20 |
| chewbranca | I'm sorry, not trying to be rude, but anyone who hasn't upgraded to 10.04, I really can't recommend you upgrading | 17:20 |
| jpds | chewbranca: Do file bug reports. :) | 17:20 |
| * jpds is happy with 10.04. | 17:20 | |
| * theadmin !! | 17:20 | |
| zachlr | Installed Gforce FX 5500 driver 173, resolution is still capped at 640x480. | 17:20 |
| gzmask | agree with chewbranca | 17:20 |
| chewbranca | it broke xinerama for me, removed support for ati 8xxx cards for my friends laptop, and broke wifi on my other buddies netbook | 17:20 |
| roberto_ | * thinks. | 17:20 |
| roberto_ | how do you do that ? | 17:20 |
| Gesi | theadmin, thanks | 17:21 |
| theadmin | roberto_: /me sometext | 17:21 |
| chewbranca | and I had a black screen of wtf after the upgrade | 17:21 |
| pecar | how can i add the icon of network connections to the panel ? it disappeared. | 17:21 |
| tesseracter | llutz: lsof -i :22 returns nothing... | 17:21 |
| llutz | tesseracter: no sshd running though | 17:21 |
| llutz | tesseracter: sudo aptitude install openss-server | 17:21 |
| lvdave | I love 10.04 except for a problem with network-manager-openvpn | 17:21 |
| llutz | tesseracter: sudo aptitude install openssh-server | 17:21 |
| sebsebseb | chewbranca: mind the language, and yes black screen, boot up black screen? | 17:21 |
| llutz | tesseracter: sudo service ssh start | 17:21 |
| chewbranca | sebsebseb, what language? | 17:21 |
| * roberto_ wondering how to get music from my sp/dif out only and system effects from my system speaker only | 17:21 | |
| theadmin | chewbranca: black screen of wtf sounds like blue screen of death :D | 17:21 |
| _dreamy | doe anyone knows what are the practical differences or advantages of Ubuntu 8.04 .. or the newer versions 9.04 or 10 * ? | 17:22 |
| sebsebseb | chewbranca: the three leters you used | 17:22 |
| chewbranca | theadmin, yeah that was the analogy, just boots up to black with monitors off | 17:22 |
| chewbranca | sebsebseb, that was an acronym not language ;-) | 17:22 |
| sebsebseb | chewbranca: still counts as swearing in this channel | 17:22 |
| theadmin | chewbranca: Well, "f**k" is not a tolerated word here | 17:22 |
| roberto_ | mierda | 17:22 |
| _dreamy | im aiming for performance | 17:22 |
| bazhang | theadmin, please | 17:22 |
| chewbranca | not what I said, but I'll keep that in mind | 17:23 |
| theadmin | bazhang: Hey, me censored it... but sorry, i'm just trying to explain | 17:23 |
| bazhang | lets get back on topic | 17:23 |
| fevernova | hey, anyone use autopsy i am having trouble adding a encase image | 17:23 |
| Creat0r | how could i display the first column of "cat /etc/passwd"??? | 17:23 |
| sipior | chewbranca: some folks here are a bit too pedantic for their own good, i'm afraid. | 17:23 |
| llutz | Creat0r: use cut/awk | 17:23 |
| theadmin | Creat0r: head -n5 /etc/passwd | 17:23 |
| sebsebseb | chewbranca: black screen on boot up? | 17:23 |
| theadmin | Creat0r: err, replace that 5 with 1 | 17:23 |
| tesseracter | wooooo, dunno what happened, but i got in via ssh! thanks jpds, theadmin, llutz, geekphreak | 17:24 |
| roberto_ | oo no, the dreaded black screen of boot! | 17:24 |
| llutz | theadmin: head works on rows not columns | 17:24 |
| chewbranca | sipior, hahahha well at least there being polite about it and not telling me to gt#o (there an acronym with the inappropriate letters commented out... lol) | 17:24 |
| roberto_ | the only one that's worse than the blue screen of death | 17:24 |
| theadmin | llutz: Uh. There is no such thing as "column" in a file, maybe in some kind of a .ods though | 17:24 |
| chewbranca | sebsebseb, yeah xorg was broken for me after upgrade | 17:24 |
| sebsebseb | chewbranca: not nessarily | 17:24 |
| sebsebseb | chewbranca: I mean are you sure? | 17:25 |
| geekphreak | tesseracter: welcome | 17:25 |
| sebsebseb | chewbranca: Plymouth will give black screen sometimes | 17:25 |
| sebsebseb | chewbranca: Plymouth will also mess up for loads of people with a propritary Nivida or ATI driver installed | 17:25 |
| chewbranca | sebsebseb, naw it was 100% xorg, regression in it for xinerama support | 17:25 |
| gzmask | sebsebseb: i have kinda same problem | 17:25 |
| theadmin | llutz: Can't see anything that even slightly ressembles a column in output of "cat /etc/passwd" either | 17:25 |
| llutz | theadmin: go for a coffee and think about that | 17:25 |
| chewbranca | you can no longer say one monitor is 'leftof' another | 17:25 |
| chewbranca | it has to all be 'rightof' now, and you have to arrange the devices numerically by id | 17:25 |
| sebsebseb | gzmask: same problem as chewbranca or what I was describing? | 17:25 |
| atrus | Creat0r: i like: cat /etc/passwd | awk '{print $1}' | 17:25 |
| llutz | Creat0r: theadmin cat /etc/passwd|cut -d":" -f1 | 17:26 |
| atrus | er, almost :) | 17:26 |
| gzmask | sebsebseb: I got the "checking battery state" hang at boot time | 17:26 |
| theadmin | llutz: returned a list of usernames o-O | 17:26 |
| Creat0r | theadmin: head -n1 /etc/passwd display only the first line i wanna display the users list | 17:26 |
| sebsebseb | gzmask: you got black screen on boot up, then log in screen shows? | 17:26 |
| lvdave | Hi Ubuntu! I had been using 8.04, and it worked perfectly.. I decided to buy another drive and do a clean install of 10.04.. Everything works fantastically EXCEPT for network-manager-openvpn.. The connection starts, I get the lock icon on the wifi panel, but cannot ping anything thru the tunnel.. Then if I leave it, eventually I get the popup telling me the vpn connection failed. I have a snippet of /var/log/messages at http://ubuntu.past | 17:26 |
| lvdave | ebin.com/vyeg5V5E | 17:26 |
| Creat0r | the first column | 17:26 |
| gzmask | sebsebseb: after I upgrade. so kinda same | 17:26 |
| geekphreak | goodnight all | 17:26 |
| llutz | Creat0r: awk -F":" '{print $1}' /etc/passwd | 17:26 |
| chewbranca | if you're having issues with xinerama, check here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg-server/+bug/563100 | 17:26 |
| chewbranca | I'm really against the fix in principle, but I can vouch that it works | 17:26 |
| gzmask | sebsebseb: no, it hangs at boot time. login screen is no show | 17:26 |
| llutz | theadmin: which IS the 1st column of that file, yes | 17:26 |
| theadmin | llutz: I see! So stuff before the first space. | 17:27 |
| atrus | Creat0r, corrected mine: cat /etc/passwd | awk 'FS=":" {print $1}' | 17:27 |
| sebsebseb | gzmask: oh probably the issue that woman (or whatever) from last night had | 17:27 |
| llutz | atrus: uuc :) | 17:27 |
| spibants | dont recommed wubi yet!! theres some issues to be fixed | 17:27 |
| sebsebseb | gzmask: basically it would boot, but be black, than she/he has auto log in on, and gets the music and things load up | 17:27 |
| sebsebseb | gzmask: don't see the log in screen | 17:27 |
| gzmask | sebsebseb: you sound like you are having an affair last night ;) | 17:28 |
| Creat0r | llutz : this awk -F":" '{print $1}' /etc/passwd works fine thanks | 17:28 |
| sebsebseb | gzmask: heh in a way I guess | 17:28 |
| sebsebseb | gzmask: someone I was trying to help in here, with someone else as well | 17:28 |
| gzmask | sebsebseb: mine is just hangs there, then I reinstall ubuntu 9.10 | 17:28 |
| === pipegeek1 is now known as pipegeek | ||
| sebsebseb | gzmask: that's what I suggested for this person, to just re install 9.10, in the end | 17:29 |
| sebsebseb | gzmask: instead of messing around with xorg hopeing that resetting xorg might fix the issue | 17:29 |
| essial | Hey I have ftpd set up and a user called ftpadmin, how do I set it to go to /var/www as root instead of / when i ftp in? | 17:29 |

| theadmin | justin22885: Click on "other" | 17:32 |
| sebsebseb | gzmask: well this sucks really then, two boot up issues basically for 10.04 | 17:32 |
| gzmask | sebsebseb: I know heh. anyway, ub 10.04 isn't really ready for release imo. 9.10 is way better for first timer | 17:32 |
| llutz | monty_hall: use "rename" | 17:32 |
| theadmin | justin22885: enter "root" as the user and your root password | 17:32 |
| sebsebseb | gzmask: well if the log in screen is included for boot up, but in this context it is | 17:32 |
| theadmin | justin22885: No way to literally show it on the list as far as I know | 17:32 |
| sebsebseb | gzmask: so the plymouth issue, plus the Intel issue | 17:32 |
| sebsebseb | gzmask: agreed | 17:33 |
| sebsebseb | gzmask: 10.04 is a bit dodgy at the moment | 17:33 |
| sebsebseb | gzmask: which is ashame since it's meant to be LTS | 17:33 |
| neil__ | how to unpack a package | 17:33 |
| sebsebseb | well it is LTS | 17:33 |
| gzmask | sebsebseb: but I really like it. if it's fixed I'll upgrade in no time | 17:33 |
| === bep is now known as Guest95040 | ||
| llutz | monty_hall: or try " find . -name "*.java" -exec echo mv {} _{} \; " remove echo when it seems doing fine | 17:33 |

| theadmin | monty_hall: Ooopsie, forgot a "\;" | 17:34 |
| justin22885 | yeah, i want to literally show it, its kind of stupid that they hide it with no way to show it.. its my computer, ill decide what security measures i use | 17:34 |
| sebsebseb | gzmask: yeah "if" it's fixed | 17:34 |
| sebsebseb | gzmask: I wonder though if it will be fixed, since they only do security upgrades, or tend to | 17:34 |
| monty_hall | theadmin: it would produce x/x/x/filename.java to _x/x/x/filename.java | 17:35 |
| sebsebseb | gzmask: maybe 10.10 will have the fix, and then there will be a backport to 10.04 | 17:35 |
| sebsebseb | gzmask: I guess that is what will happen | 17:35 |
| gzmask | sebsebseb: for canonical's record, I believe they will | 17:35 |
| monty_hall | theadmin: anymore suggestions? | 17:35 |
| sebsebseb | gzmask: major bug though, the boot up and log in screen, has to just work really. otherwise people aren't going to be happy at all | 17:36 |
| theadmin | monty_hall: ...oh. "find . -name '*.java' -exec mv $(basename {}) prefix-${basename {}) \;" - sorry, TOTALLY forgot it gives the full path | 17:36 |
| EntityReborn | !xscreensaver | 17:36 |
| EntityReborn | hm | 17:36 |
| theadmin | find . -name '*.java' -exec mv $(basename {}) prefix-$(basename {}) \; | 17:36 |
| theadmin | monty_hall: ^ | 17:36 |
| gzmask | sebsebseb: they kind of fixed it a lil bit already I guess. It's working right after the CD installation. but broke again after upgrade | 17:36 |
| sebsebseb | gzmask: anyway thanks, i'll look at the link, and now I know there is an issue with Intel as well, not just propritary Nivida and ATI drivers | 17:36 |

| sweb | umask* | 18:24 |
| edbian | sweb, Just add the option "user" to the options for that mountpoint | 18:24 |
| bnv | hello | 18:24 |
| edbian | sweb, Also make sure you have correct permissions over the folder it will be mounted in | 18:24 |
| guntbert | !language | ManDay I don't have that directory at all | 18:24 |
| ubottu | ManDay I don't have that directory at all: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. | 18:24 |
| Dr_Willis | ManDay: i dont even have a /usr/gnome | 18:24 |
| EntityReborn | I mean, what are the benifits of a x64 build? | 18:24 |
| sweb | /dev/x /media/x ntfs user | 18:24 |
| sweb | ? | 18:24 |
| EntityReborn | I don't see any speed differences, besides the occasional freeze | 18:25 |
| ManDay | guntbert stop annoying me with your language thing | 18:25 |
| dekroning | anyone know if it's possible to launch chromium-browser directly into fullscreen mode ? | 18:25 |
| Dr_Willis | EntityReborn: if you got a 64bit cpu. you can access more ram. and some tasks will be faster. | 18:25 |

| BigFatFatty | If I download 10.04 today vs. 1 month from now, will it be the same or will the later download have more updates/patches? | 18:26 |

| EntityReborn | but w/e | 18:26 |
| chmac | Can anyone tell me what the default theme is in lucid? If you click System > Preferences > Appearance, what is selected? | 18:27 |
| EntityReborn | I think i'll still go back to x86 | 18:27 |
| edbian | BigFatFatty, Not sure if it's monthly but I do know they usually throw some updates into the current build periodically | 18:27 |
| BigFatFatty | thx | 18:27 |
| guntbert | ManDay: the use of (even abbreviated) swear words is not ok in this channel | 18:27 |
| craigbass1976 | xcalibur, yeah, it looks like you've got things working based on users; I've no experience in that. Like I said, I urn mine wide open because it doesn't matter here, and I no longer run windows at the house to play with. | 18:27 |
| Dr_Willis | ManDay: looks fine here | 18:27 |
| sweb | edbian, can you give me all option, i don't really somevalue such as gid umask or etc | 18:27 |
| edbian | EntityReborn, FYI x64 is terrible syntax. It's amd64 vs ix86 (e.g. i386 or i686) | 18:27 |
| ManDay | guntbert, last time you gave me a !language because i said "jeez" | 18:27 |
| ManDay | now is that annoying or what? | 18:28 |
| harovali | hi , I'm getting an annoying error in postgresql in ubuntu 910. ""The database was initialized with LC_CTYPE ...." , any hint ? | 18:28 |
| EntityReborn | edbian, well said. amd64 then | 18:28 |
| xcalibur | hmmm, that is not much of help :p thanks anyway | 18:28 |
| EntityReborn | Tho doesn't intel have 64s? | 18:28 |
| niteshade | hey, i got windows in dual-boot with ubuntu alongside using lilo to switch. But, i'd like to mess around with windows, and since i can back up anything in linux and boot up into linux to replace files that i screwed with too much, it's almost impossible to completely wreck the system unless i forget to back things up, or linux is broke | 18:28 |
| ManDay | guntbert, consider the "f" in wtf "freak" | 18:28 |
| Dr_Willis | EntityReborn: ive rarely had any issues with 64bit. | 18:28 |
| Dr_Willis | EntityReborn: most cpus by intel and amd are 64 | 18:28 |
| xcalibur | can someone else help me on usershares in ubuntu 10.04 with samba/windows | 18:28 |
| guntbert | ManDay: stop discussing that please | 18:28 |
| ManDay | ok | 18:28 |
| EntityReborn | Dr_Willis, then why the "amd" in amd64? | 18:28 |
| edbian | sweb, You don't have to tell it all the options because if you don't specify it chooses the defaults. I have an NTFS partition, my fstab is /dev/hda1 /mnt/xp /ntfs-3g defaults,user 0 2 | 18:29 |
| Dr_Willis | EntityReborn: they had it out first | 18:29 |
| EntityReborn | Right | 18:29 |
| EntityReborn | Meh | 18:29 |
| edbian | sweb, Except for that typo on the file-system type ;) | 18:29 |
| EntityReborn | Splitting beans, I guess. | 18:29 |
| antivirtel | how can i restore my sudo if (accidentally) I changed chown of /usr/bin/* and /usr/share/* to myself, and in terminal it wirtes: "sudo: must be setuid root" ? | 18:29 |
| Dr_Willis | you asked,,, thats the history EntityReborn | 18:29 |
| Dr_Willis | antivirtel: use a live cd. | 18:29 |
| EntityReborn | I know :) | 18:29 |
| edbian | sweb, Does that makes sense? You should be able to edit fstab that way and then double click that drive in my computer. The changes are instant | 18:30 |
| sweb | edbian, thank and how can i find really file system | 18:30 |
| niteshade | but i'd like to be able to boot windows in some kinda emulator within linux. Is there any way? I mean, to boot up from a seperate partition within some other emulator or virtual machine? And, how? I know that qemu and virtualbox both boot up from images and not partitions. So, how? | 18:30 |
| EntityReborn | Dr_Willis, I said splitting beans at my own comment, not yours. | 18:30 |
| sweb | edbian, fdisk -l | 18:30 |
| sweb | ? | 18:30 |
| Dr_Willis | I found a neat (and very unsafe) trick to get a 'root' shell on tty9 :) for 'emergancies' | 18:30 |
| EntityReborn | Dr_Willis, do tell? | 18:30 |
| Dr_Willis | EntityReborn: and there is discussion of starting to use a more generic term for 64bit. | 18:30 |
| edbian | sweb, I just ment there is no slash. it's simply ntfs. Ubuntu doesn't use ntfs-3g | 18:30 |
| niteshade | dudes? | 18:30 |
| guntbert | ManDay: but back to you issue: I only have one symlink in that directory namely libs - all other entries are directories | 18:31 |
| EntityReborn | Dr_Willis, it would make more symantic sense. | 18:31 |
| edbian | Dr_Willis, What are they considering? | 18:31 |
| antivirtel | Dr_Willis yes, and what can I type ? i typed(as root): chown root:root /usr/bin and chown root:root /usr/bin/* and chown root:root /usr/share and chown root:root /usr/share/* | 18:31 |
| guntbert | *your | 18:31 |
| edbian | sweb, Does that makes sense? | 18:31 |
| EntityReborn | but then, "bandages" vs "bandaids" can be thrown into the argument here | 18:31 |
| bnv | I know, the 16:9 aspect ratio and the 1920x1080 resolution is good for movies, but is it good for newsreading on the net? I think, the pixels are will be small. | 18:31 |
| Dr_Willis | edbian: i dont rember. it was on some ubuntu chat/brainstorm thread | 18:31 |
| antivirtel | Dr_Willis and the probelm is still | 18:31 |
| ManDay | guntbert, the files below that are symlinks - all a them. i deleted them now. one example was: ./gnome/help/mousetweaks/fr/figures/mouse-a11y-pointer-capture-context-menu.png | 18:31 |
| ManDay | virtually every file | 18:31 |
| psusi | antivirtel: reboot into rescue mode and chown them back | 18:31 |
| sweb | edbian, i'll be test now thank for timing :D | 18:31 |
| llutz | antivirtel: "chmod +s /mnt/usr/bin/sudo" from live-cd | 18:31 |

| edbian | sweb, No problem1 | 18:32 |
| bnv | -are | 18:32 |
| ManDay | Does anyone know where the gnome menu is configured to have items which a user cannot delete nor edit? i have one of these entries and i would like to remove it but i dont knowwhere | 18:32 |
| guntbert | ManDay: I'll have a look | 18:32 |
| Dr_Willis | Futsuriai: I think thats doable by some scripting. but i cant recall off hand how it was done. (saw some thread/forum/howto post on it I belive for some apps_ | 18:32 |
| niteshade | dudes? | 18:32 |
| antivirtel | llutz what is it "+" ? | 18:32 |
| Dr_Willis | Futsuriai: i seem to recall it being used with pidgin at either OMGubuntu web site or webupd8 web site. Those are the only 2 i really read much | 18:33 |
| llutz | antivirtel: man chmod (set permission) | 18:33 |
| antivirtel | psusi yeah, but what is the RIGHT command | 18:33 |
| antivirtel | ? | 18:33 |
| Futsuriai | Dr_Willis, hm, at least the fact that it's doable is an encouraging sign, I'll check them out, thanks! | 18:33 |

| bazhang | niteshade, ask here | 18:37 |
| anonymouse_ | inglor, deluge-torrent | 18:37 |
| niteshade | hey, i got windows in dual-boot with ubuntu alongside using lilo to switch.

I mean, to boot up from a seperate partition within some other emulator or virtual machine? And, how? I know that qemu and virtualbox both boot up from images and not partitions. So, how? | 18:37 |
| bazhang | niteshade, why lilo? what version of ubuntu? | 18:37 |
| inglor | anonymouse_: also, how is the current bittorrent client from bittorrent.com ? I understand they bought uTorrent? | 18:37 |
| niteshade | 9.10 | 18:37 |
| bazhang | niteshade, virtualbox | 18:37 |
| niteshade | i think it's lilo | 18:37 |
| niteshade | so how do i set it up to boot from another partition? | 18:38 |
| anonymouse_ | inglor, i hear it sucks but I haven't tried it myself | 18:38 |
| ar1s | hi there, i've got a problem at installation of 10.04 and can't figure out : my SATA disk is not recognized by the installer (doesn't show up in the 4th screen) but is correctly detected by gparted and al... any idea what might be wrong ? | 18:38 |
| niteshade | instead of an image file | 18:38 |
| miked595_ | LILO wow | 18:38 |
| piero | how do i install Debug mode | 18:38 |
| inglor | anonymouse_: ok, getting deluge, ty | 18:38 |
| rocket16 | Does Docky need 3D acceleration like AWN? | 18:38 |
| niteshade | the bootup is not the problem | 18:38 |
| anonymouse_ | inglor, deluge is like uTorrent FYI | 18:38 |
| niteshade | it's the workup to the problem | 18:38 |
| inglor | anonymouse_: wow, deluge looks very similar to utorrent | 18:38 |
| guntbert | ManDay: I din't look into yelp -- but why would it remove those links on uninstalling? | 18:38 |
| inglor | anonymouse_: very very similar interface | 18:38 |
| niteshade | the problem is how to set up virtualbox to boot another partition instead of a file | 18:39 |
| ManDay | guntbert, because they are then useless because their targets are gone | 18:39 |
| rocket16 | I would really like a Dock on my Laptop, but it has only 512 MB RAM, :( So, is Docky a right choice? | 18:39 |
| ManDay | nvm tho, i manually removed them and thus got rid of the error msgs when grepping | 18:39 |
| piero | how do i install Debug mode | 18:39 |

| niteshade | ok, is #virtualbox on this server? | 18:40 |
| niteshade | * #vbox | 18:40 |
| guntbert | ManDay: most of them are useless as you probably have installed only one or two languages -- but a "broken" symlinks does no harm | 18:40 |
| ipc | How to resolve this problem | 18:40 |
| ipc | locale.Error: unsupported locale setting | 18:40 |
| llutz | niteshade: yes | 18:40 |
| niteshade | cool, thanks | 18:40 |
| ManDay | guntbert, well they produce error messages which is annyoing after all if you are grepping for something | 18:40 |
| ManDay | or something else | 18:40 |
| piero | how do i install Debug mode | 18:41 |
| Dr_Willis | piero: perhaps rephrase the question.. I have NO idea what you mean by it. | 18:41 |
| guntbert | ManDay: ahh - that way you stumbled upon that ... I was wondering -- well it won't hurt to remove them :-) | 18:41 |

| justin22885 | thats stupid, why wouldnt linux support being able to natively install 32 bit apps? its frustrating when there are a few apps that really need to be 32 bit | 18:51 |

| Beartree | Hi there | 18:55 |
| NeverwherE | well the question is that I have a AOA 150 running lucid and everything updated, however the only bug I have is that I get wireless drops when downloading torrent files. I looked online and there are others who have the same issue. I did not have the issue in karmic, I wanted to know if I can roll back to the driver version used in karmic??? | 18:55 |
| stefg | justin22885: no sign of any usb-event for a harddisk. either there is text missing or you have a hardware problem | 18:55 |
| MrPancake | vadi01: There's a launchpad bug on the fingerprint reader. I use the nvidia binary driver. | 18:55 |
| kjele_ | muro: Is there any light on the hdd? | 18:55 |
| ar1s | hmm found solution, that was because the partitions used to have raid on them | 18:55 |
| muro | kjele_: yes. | 18:55 |
| kjele_ | muro: Does it light? | 18:56 |
| muro | kjele_: yes. | 18:56 |

| Bevix | ok kjele_, i will write that down, at this moment i saw the dist-upgrade failed and i restarted it. so i have to wait until this ends, if it's not working after that, i will perform your suggestions | 18:56 |
| Bevix | thanks | 18:56 |
| vadi01 | MrPancake: ok and also since i needed to keep my recovery partition, i deleted the c drive and repartitioned it with kubuntu. Now i cant get the recover to boot. how do i get around that? modify grub? | 18:57 |

| kjele_ | muro: As lsusb your usb disk is not detected. It is strange very strange. | 19:00 |
| xangua | Cerrdor: what do you want to boot¿ | 19:00 |
| Dr_Willis | Cerrdor: you mean 'brand optical drive' ? or 'software tp burn an iso to disk' ? | 19:00 |
| NeverwherE | I'm refering to the AOA150 zg5? | 19:00 |
| taddle | How do I DO AN UBUNTU CLEAN INSTALL | 19:00 |
| anonymouse_ | fbxxkl, try opening nvidia-settings , then under "x server display configuration" | 19:00 |
| xangua | !caps > taddle | 19:00 |
| ubottu | taddle, please see my private message | 19:00 |
| Dr_Willis | taddle: delete the preexisting linux partitions.. start installer, tell it to use unallocated space.. s one way | 19:01 |
| Cerrdor | software so I can burn the ubuntu and make it a bootable disk | 19:01 |
| kjele_ | taddle: Download the cd from ubuntu.com and insert it in during boot | 19:01 |
| muro | kjele_: ok thank you. but it is possible to not see the drivers of it by ubuntu ? | 19:01 |
| fbxxkl | right monitor disabled so I enable | 19:01 |
| stefg | muro: yup, no sign of any other disk than /dev/sda ... but dmesg should at least give you some usb-event when plugging in the ext. harddisk, even if can't see the file-system | 19:01 |
| ChrisC_ | Where do I get support for Virtual box. I'm sure my problem is simple. | 19:01 |
| Dr_Willis | Cerrdor: under what OS? Ubuntu? theres k3b, brassero, and others.. I got a 'right click burn iso to disk' option here. Not sure where that came from | 19:01 |
| dekroning | i currently have this bug , however what does it mean when the status in "triaged" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-input-mutouch/+bug/533502 | 19:01 |
| fbxxkl | Ok I got it thansk everyon | 19:02 |
| taddle | Dr_willis, kjele_, which is easier | 19:02 |
| fbxxkl | everyone, just had to fiddle a bit | 19:02 |
| Dr_Willis | ChrisC_: perhaps start with the vbox homepage/forums and the manual? | 19:02 |
| anonymouse_ | lol | 19:02 |
| muro | kjele_: ok thank you! | 19:02 |
| Dr_Willis | taddle: i always tell the installer to 'use unallocated space' and let it partitions tuff as it wants | 19:02 |
| bootstrap | I haven't used ubuntu in years. I am coming over from mint. Can someone let me know what I am in store for regarding the switch. Years ago I remember having great trouble with wireless and nvidia. | 19:02 |

| Cerrdor | I am using windows xp to burn the iso image onto a dvd-rw I want the dvd to be bootable which software do I need to install in windows so I can create a bootable image on the dvd | 19:03 |
| ChrisC_ | Dr_Willis: Maybe you could help, is it a common problem after a kernel update to get this non compiling error? | 19:03 |
| guntbert | ChrisC_: in #vbox | 19:03 |
| Dr_Willis | bootstrap: not had any issues with nvidia in ages.. it depends on your exact cards for the most part i imagine | 19:03 |
| kjele_ | muro: You might try to report a bug with "ubuntu-bug linux" and explain that the kernel does not detect your usb disk. Perhaps maybe next release it will be supported | 19:03 |
| Bevix | kjele_: apt-distupgrade finished and my computer is OK now. Thanks for your help | 19:03 |
| Dr_Willis | ChrisC_: I got the vbox ose working with no hassles. Not seen any errors with it | 19:03 |

| Jungli | hello i need shell | 19:04 |
| stefg | muro: if can afford the time it would be helpful to boot a Live CD of ubuntu 9.10 (previous version) and see if it is the same.. if the 9.10 kernel detects your disk it is a regression | 19:04 |
| guntbert | ChrisC_: yes -- /join #vbox | 19:04 |

| danutz | how do I access rar files in ubuntu? | 19:05 |

| justin22885 | uh oh, ubuntu isnt flashing my usb drive | 19:09 |
| justin22885 | i meant mounting | 19:09 |
| Dr_Willis | taddle: other way is to make a bootable cd, then on the os you got now use gparted, or fdisk. , to delte all the linxu partitions.. reboot the cd.. start installer. tell it to use unallocated space. | 19:09 |
| Dr_Willis | taddle: in short 'delete the old os' 'install new os' | 19:09 |

| ManDay | Firefox doesn't save the FAVICONs in the toolbar after it has closed. They load within a session - a few are already present on startup - but after restart all the icons apart from the already loaded ones are gone again - anyone know help? | 19:11 |
| taddle | Dr_willis, I know how to install, How do I uninstall | 19:11 |
| eni23 | hello at all. everytime i start transmission it blocks my audio-device. is there a way to prevent this? i mean a torrent-client don't need sound.. | 19:11 |
| Dr_Willis | taddle: fdisk, or gparted to delete/remake partitions , or use the installer to 'reformat' the existing partiions. | 19:11 |
| ludovic | salut tout le monde | 19:11 |
| Dr_Willis | taddle: the manual disk partitioning feature of the installer lets you do most all this also. | 19:12 |
| xangua | help with what ManDay¿¿ i don't get it | 19:12 |
| taddle | Dr_willis, I didn't use partions, it's a windows application | 19:12 |
| ManDay | xangua, that firefox doesnt save the favicons | 19:12 |
| Dr_Willis | taddle: if you are using 'wubi' you should of mentioned that earlier. I dont use wubi. I dont reccomend wubi. | 19:12 |
| Dr_Willis | taddle: ive no idea on doing anything with wubi | 19:12 |
| xangua | ManDay: doen't save or doens't load¿ | 19:13 |
| vadi01 | MrPancake: ok what about this utility which locks your drive when ur on the move...does it work in ubuntu? | 19:13 |
| taddle | Dr_willis, I've never heard of wubu | 19:13 |

| VCoolio | how do i open a .db file with e.g. gmysqlcc? | 19:13 |

| Xerran | Hello | 19:13 |
| ManDay | xangua, i think i found a fix | 19:13 |
| xangua | why wold it save the favicons ManDay | 19:13 |
| ManDay | its a bug tho. i set "remember all history" now they staart showing up | 19:13 |
| ManDay | xangua, it usually does?!?! thats the whole idea of having a FAVicon | 19:14 |
| taddle | Does anybody know how to uninstall ubuntu? | 19:14 |
| ChogyDan | taddle: what do you want installed? | 19:14 |
| Dr_Willis | taddle: to do a clean install using that method. I would guess you would use the windows tools to 'uninstall' linux, then rerun the installer to reinstall it. | 19:14 |
| madsen | disconnect cables ? | 19:14 |
| madsen | :) | 19:14 |
| ManDay | xangua, it appears that not saving all history messes with other preferences badly - saving passwrods incloded | 19:14 |
| ar1s | burn the laptop | 19:14 |
| xangua | taddle: yes, format the partition | 19:14 |
| Dr_Willis | taddle: the main point of wubi is it has entries in the windows add/remove programs stuff. so it can be easially removed. | 19:14 |
| SuNk8 | Dr_Willis, I could use some help... Was trying to get Compiz Cube working, and it seems that I cannot switch workspaces anymore... | 19:15 |

| SandGorgon | hey guys.. anyone here have linux installed on LVM rather than partitions ? I saw this article ( http://www.linux.com/learn/tutorials/306352-weekend-project-migrate-from-direct-partitions-to-lvm-volumes) and was considering doing it - but does it have any impact on performance .. especially if I'm running a DB on my machine ? | 19:23 |

| xangua | FoxWolf: do you have ppa-purge installed¿ if yes then: sudo ppa-purge ppa:repository-name/subdirectory | 19:29 |
| xangua | or just disable it/delete it from software origins | 19:29 |
| guntbert | mezquitale: no - all are kept | 19:29 |

| esperegu | anyone can help me disabling "emulate3buttons" for a usb device in X??? | 19:29 |
| xangua | Croome: is that some audio/video file¿¿ have you installed restricted-extras¿ | 19:30 |
| FoxWolf | xangua, its ok for now, i did read about PPA purge and read that it can cause some problems | 19:30 |
| rjaguar3 | I have a problem with OpenAL drivers: several games like Supertux2 and Balazar Bros. only open with the audio drivers once per restart and then the audio drivers don't work when I reload the application | 19:30 |
| ActionParsnip_ | Esperegu: you may need an xorg.conf file | 19:30 |
| Dr_Willis | Croome: install w32codecs and ubuntu-restricted-extras package for starters | 19:30 |
| Dr_Willis | !medibuntu | Croome | 19:30 |
| ubottu | Croome: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org | 19:30 |
| Croome | I have done that, and it's a video file I try to play | 19:30 |

| ActionParsnip_ | Sesperegu: you can edit the menu item using alacarte, not sure about the tray icon | 19:31 |
| mezquitale | Pici, guntbert ActionParsnip_ thanks! I booted up to my dev lucid installation, I booted up fine now, time to test all appz to see if they actually work in lucid | 19:32 |
| Dr_Willis | Croome: perhaps try playing it in vlc, or mplayer, run the player from terminal. look for any info/error messages about the codec | 19:32 |
| Croome | tried all that | 19:32 |
| Croome | and I got 64 bit so I got w64codecs instead ;) | 19:32 |

| Bevix | thanks | 19:34 |

| jsmith | basically, I need to move everything from my old user account to a new user account. Software settings, files, what have you. the old account is now broken beyond repair, I think. So, if I was to delete the account, would Ubuntu allow a transfer everything to another account | 20:07 |
| brah- | ishijoe over 60 you should be concerned | 20:07 |
| brah- | or maybe 65+ idk | 20:07 |

| Craig` | I'm wanting to learn how I can interract with the keyboard, so that I can code for it to virtually press keys, (thus making it act as if I was typing), could someone give me some decent links on this?

| genii | Morten_: /dev/Iomega exists? Or is there more like /dev/Iomega01 02 etc | 20:21 |

| Guest52011 | !lmgtfy exceptionio | 20:22 |
| ActionParsnip | roberto__: add some other DNS servers too, your local one will not have learned the addresses you need yet | 20:22 |
| guntbert | agherta: I see no limit | 20:22 |
| Jordan_U | agherta: The only limiting factor I can think of would be that file you write will be stored in RAM, and thus after writing enough files you will exhaust RAM. | 20:22 |
| Sam_Fisher | agherta, forever! It's not Windows you know | 20:22 |
| Morten_ | genii, seems like the rule doesn't work. The /dev/Iomega** does not exist | 20:22 |

| bodom | Let's suppose I do: echo 'test' > file1; cp -al file1 file2; echo 'test2' > file2. Now both file1 and file2 will contain 'test2', I am right? If yes, how can I use hard links to make snapshot backups with rsync? | 20:25 |

| eveningsky | anyone know an active mirror for gimpshop x64 installer? | 20:25 |

| GodricBrutus | i messed up my sound somehow. i did everything i couls do from !sound, and it didnt work. i still have no sound. i ran alsamixer, and everything is alraedy on max volume; nothing is on 'M'. When i go to 'sound preferences', under hardware, there is nothing listed. i did 'cat /proc/asound/cards' and then visited https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto and did everything they said to do there. still no sound. can anyone help | 20:27 |
| GodricBrutus | with my issue? http://i.imgur.com/U6lre.jpg | 20:27 |
| tamale1 | winXPuser: Good question, I haven't tried that. I'm the only user on the system. | 20:27 |
| freeman_ | every hour or so, gnome will just crash | 20:27 |
| freeman_ | none of the buttons respond | 20:27 |
| madsdyd | Anyone that can can help me with boot problems? After upgrading to (k)ubuntu 10.4, I am unable to boot successfully to anything but init=/bin/bash. Seems the new init stuff enter some kind of weird loop | 20:27 |
| freeman_ | and the only thing that works is a hard reboot... :( whyz?? | 20:27 |
| mms | pici ok kanka | 20:27 |
| bodom | Pici: so, when I rsync file3 over file1 both file1 and file2 will change... but many tutorials says I should use hard links to take rsync snaphshots... I'm goin' mad :) | 20:28 |
| ActionParsnip | roberto__: make the first line of /etc/resolv.conf read: nameserver 127.0.0.1 | 20:28 |
| Sam_Fisher | winXPuser, tracker? | 20:28 |
| ActionParsnip | roberto__: then try digging again, then again (use up arrow to repeat the command) | 20:28 |
| roberto__ | ActionParsnip: sudo /etc/init.d/dnsmasq restart does exactly that | 20:28 |
| bodom | madsdyd: I get some error messages? | 20:28 |
| bodom | madsdyd: *You | 20:29 |
| ActionParsnip | roberto__: so you have 127.0.0.1 then the other nameservers listed in your pastebin as well? | 20:29 |
| Sam_Fisher | winXPuser, I set up what to search under preferences>search and indexing | 20:29 |
| tamale1 | winXPuser: would you suggest me trying that before doing any other troubleshooting? Right now, I'm in ssh into the computer and the computer is unresponsive, so I could run some tests if only I knew what to test. | 20:29 |
| mms | tr | 20:29 |
| bilkulbekar | i am not able to remove packages on lucid lynx.. it says previous installation hasn't been completed | 20:29 |
| mms | turkıye yokmu | 20:29 |
| roberto__ | ActionParsnip: no, it appears to replace those while it is running | 20:29 |
| madsdyd | bodom: The only thing looking like an error, is udevd-work: open /dev/null failed: no suh file or directory | 20:29 |
| Giles | hello, since upgrading to lucid desktop effects are disabled, and when I run compiz I get: | 20:29 |
| madsdyd | Then it hangs for a while | 20:29 |
| Giles | Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0". | 20:29 |
| guntbert | !tr | mms | 20:29 |
| freeman_ | (sorry, ill make it short): On a fresh install of 10.04, i get random gnome crashes. | 20:29 |
| ubottu | mms: Turk ubuntu kullanıcıları, Türkçe yardım ya da geyik için #ubuntu-tr hizmetinizde. | 20:29 |
| william | yeah right i am using windows tow | 20:29 |
| Sam_Fisher | bilkulbekar, have you used synaptic to repair broken packages? | 20:29 |
| madsdyd | bodom: then it starts to loop or something with udev. Its mighty weird | 20:30 |
| mms | orda kimse konusmuyor | 20:30 |
| madsdyd | bodom: udevd, even. | 20:30 |
| Sam_Fisher | Giles, are you using the special driver? | 20:30 |
| william | sorry tow | 20:30 |
| ActionParsnip | roberto__: then you have no web based DNS being added, if you use network manager then you will need to add the config there. I was not aware of dnsmasq populating the file | 20:30 |
| Giles | Sam_Fisher: How can I tell? | 20:30 |
| mms | heyy ıbıntu root ? | 20:30 |
| tamale1 | winXPuser: aha! I killed compiz and everything is fine again. I'll ask for help in #compiz. | 20:30 |
| mms | ubuntu root | 20:30 |
| ActionParsnip | roberto__: if you manually edit the file without restarting dnsmasq it will still work | 20:30 |

| ubottu | mms: We do not support having a root password set. See !root and !wfm for more information. | 20:31 |
| justin22885 | well, i tried changing my home folder from /home/name to just /name and i get a bunch of messages telling me im stupid for being root? | 20:31 |
| roberto__ | ActionParsnip: dude .. I'm asking for help with dnsmasq, not webservers or whatever you were thinking | 20:31 |
| bodom | madsdyd: googling, lokks like your problem is a common one, but a couldn't find a solution right now | 20:31 |
| Sam_Fisher | Giles, your not if you have to ask. You have to install and configure the driver to have special effects | 20:31 |
| justin22885 | all i tried doing was changing my damn home folder, this is a single-user PC | 20:31 |
| ActionParsnip | roberto__: i know, i use a dnsmasq just the same | 20:31 |
| Networking | Guys can anyone help me? I installed ubuntu in a virtualbox, but I cant get it to recoginize my virtual networkcard | 20:31 |
| Giles | Sam_Fisher: I had them in karmic | 20:31 |
| mms | ok actionparsnip thanks baby | 20:31 |
| mms | (: | 20:32 |
| madsdyd | bodom: Care to share you google words? I can't find a thing about this. It appears to hang after mounting, but before starting the sysV stuff | 20:32 |
| Networking | is there any command to see if linux reconginizes the networkcard and what is happening is a driver issue? | 20:32 |
| roberto__ | ActionParsnip: you just told me you weren't aware of dnsmasq populating the file ... right now on your computer, what is in resolv.conf? | 20:32 |
| Giles | Sam_Fisher: also I am trying to run a java program and I get: | 20:32 |
| Giles | Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0". | 20:32 |
| Giles | Java 3D ERROR : GLX extension is not supported | 20:32 |
| Giles | GLX version 1.3 or higher is required | 20:32 |
| Morten_ | genii, still doesn't work :| but thanks | 20:32 |
| FloodBot1 | Giles: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 20:32 |
| purpley | Hey now I can't even connect to my adhoc unsecure network..... it gets to the two green dots in the corner and then stops | 20:32 |
| Sam_Fisher | Giles, go to SYtem tab then Administration then Hardware drivers | 20:32 |
| bodom | madsdyd: I've google for "/dev/null failed: no suh file or directory", in italian | 20:32 |
| nickkontos | hello, when i double-click an .exe it runs properly, but when i create a launcher with "wine "/path/blah\ blah/sdaf.exe" it goes fullscreen and i can't see anything (black screen) | 20:32 |
| ActionParsnip | roberto__: http://pastebin.com/WV7n3HTD | 20:32 |
| eveningsky | ActionParsnip, Thanks. Don't see anything there, though. | 20:32 |
| katsuru | ok i just managed to install my first ".run" file... ;D i was missing a dot right b4 "/" , can any1 explain why/where do i need this "./" ? isn't "/" enough ? | 20:33 |
| Sam_Fisher | Giles, your update removed the drivers | 20:33 |
| Giles | Sam_Fisher: it says no proprietary Drivers are in use in this system | 20:33 |
| bilkulbekar | i tried running synaptic package manager.. it says 'dkpg was interrupted' | 20:33 |
| Sam_Fisher | Giles, that's right. and until u install then no joy | 20:33 |
| Giles | Sam_Fisher: So How can I re-enable them? | 20:33 |
| ActionParsnip | katsuru: it makes the interpretter use the pwd instead of $PATH | 20:33 |
| bilkulbekar | when i mannually run dpkg --configure -a | 20:33 |
| winXPuser | tamale1, ok | 20:33 |
| bilkulbekar | it tries to load some java docs | 20:33 |
| Sam_Fisher | Giles, choose one of the listed drivers | 20:34 |
| bodom | madsdyd: you can boot to runlevel 1 ? | 20:34 |
| katsuru | <ActionParsnip> Oh i see | 20:34 |
| katsuru | thanks | 20:34 |
| Giles | Sam_Fisher: There isn't any listed | 20:34 |
| madsdyd | bodom: Nopes, no runlevels works, only passing init=/bin/bash works | 20:34 |
| ActionParsnip | katsuru: every day is a school day :) | 20:34 |
| roberto__ | ActionParsnip: to be honest, that's what I thought mine would look like too -- the config option to add 127.0.0.1 is "prepend", not "replace" | 20:34 |
| katsuru | haha you are right | 20:34 |
| roberto__ | ActionParsnip: did you follow the guide at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Dnsmasq ? | 20:34 |
| linuxlurker | Networking, I'm sure there is...its probably something like lspci | 20:34 |
| Networking | linuxlurker: ill check it out here | 20:35 |
| Sam_Fisher | Giles, did you deposit $25 to the #ubuntu beer fund? that's why you don't have the drivers | 20:35 |
| bodom | madsdyd: looks like your initrd is fscked'up for some reason, have you tried booting from a different kernel? | 20:35 |
| justin22885 | is there any way to bypass gdm and login directly to an account? | 20:35 |
| Giles | Sam_Fisher: Yes I deposited $50 | 20:35 |
| Sam_Fisher | win | 20:35 |
| linuxlurker | Networking, if your network card is listed in the devices, I would assume its been recognised, I'm pretty rusty on these things :) | 20:35 |
| ActionParsnip | roberto__: i just know how to install it, i dont use a guide. just install dnsmasq then set one of the dns servers in network manager to 127.0.0.1, 8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4 | 20:36 |
| ActionParsnip | roberto__: thats all it is | 20:36 |
| Sam_Fisher | Giles, cool | 20:36 |
| madsdyd | bodom: no, not really. I can try that, but I really think it is something in the new Startup system. Let me try the 9.10 kernel. | 20:36 |
| bilkulbekar | lucid lynx is not working for me at all | 20:36 |
| Sam_Fisher | Giles, so there is no greyed out Nvidia in that box? | 20:36 |
| bilkulbekar | no wi-fi | 20:36 |
| bilkulbekar | :( | 20:36 |
| ActionParsnip | roberto__: the 8.8.8.8 etc are the google pulic dns servers which will be used if localhost fails | 20:36 |
| purpley | When I start ndisgtk I get unable to see if hardware is present how do I fix this | 20:36 |
| guntbert | justin22885: you can set your system so that you are directly logged in to one account - yes | 20:36 |
| Giles | Sam_Fisher: No, I don't think I have nvidia anyway, but no nothing listed. | 20:37 |
| ActionParsnip | purpley: run: sudo ndiswrapper -l | 20:37 |
| justin22885 | how would i go about doing that? | 20:37 |
| ActionParsnip | purpley: if ndiswrapper gets installed along with ndisgtk | 20:37 |
| madsdyd | bodom: same shit. Runs something called /scripts/local-botoom, and init-bottom, "Done", then udevd error, then hangs. | 20:37 |
| Sam_Fisher | winXPuser, HELP! tracker | 20:37 |
| madsdyd | bodom: : Then changes the fonts. | 20:37 |
| guntbert | !who | justin22885 | 20:37 |
| ubottu | justin22885: 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 :) | 20:37 |
| madsdyd | bodom: then starts "looping" on some udevd warnings. | 20:38 |
| Sam_Fisher | winXPuser, online I read that from terminal I could enter trackerd and run it from command but I can't | 20:38 |
| guntbert | justin22885: system/administration/login screen | 20:38 |
| justin22885 | guntbert, thats just for autologin | 20:38 |
| Sam_Fisher | winXPuser, I checked synaptic and it is installed and I reinstalled all 3 parts and still no joy | 20:38 |
| purpley | Actionparsnip, ok and now when I click configure network it says could not find a network configuration tool | 20:38 |
| roberto__ | ActionParsnip: no, I'm scared to deviate that far from the isntallation instructions. the config file for dhcp says that it -gets- its servers from the resolv.conf file. so if I set 127.0.0.1 in the network manager's connection settings, I'll be attaching the nameserver to itself as a primary source. also I know from there, it will override those settings in resolv.conf -- so it won't continue to look like that | 20:38 |
| madsdyd | bodom: Its bloody weird. Pressing arrow up will give me a text splash screen. Pressing down will give me the error log | 20:38 |
| winXPuser | Sam_Fisher, tracker app full name and version? | 20:38 |
| guntbert | justin22885: yes, thats what I understood from your question | 20:39 |
| AxonetBE | Hello, I can't get the resolution I want for my external screen | 20:39 |
| nokia3510 | ubottu: help | 20:39 |
| 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. :-) | 20:39 |
| bodom | madsdyd: mhhh | 20:39 |
| justin22885 | guntbert, is there any way i can remove gdm entirely, and still automatically log into my desktop? | 20:39 |
| madsdyd | bodom: purple even. Sucks :-) | 20:39 |
| Sam_Fisher | Giles, what computer make and model or video card? | 20:39 |
| AxonetBE | normaly it must be something like 1680x1050 but at the moment it is just 1440x900 as maximum | 20:39 |
| nokia3510 | how can I check all the ubbotu ! commands ? | 20:39 |
| purpley | Actionparsnip, ok and now when I click configure network it says could not find a network configuration tool | 20:39 |
| ActionParsnip | roberto__: you cant just have 127.0.0.1 as a nameserver because if dnsmasq hasnt learned the ip yet you will get no resolution | 20:39 |
| Jordan_U | roberto__: The DHCP client gets the list of DNS servers via DHCP, and uses that to setup /etc/resolv.conf | 20:40 |
| guntbert | justin22885: no, you always will need a display manager for a GUI | 20:40 |
| Plugh | My ISO appears to be bad. The link to the md5/sha1sum of the ISO file seems to be hidden (I'm not having much luck finding it). Someone happen to know where to find the files so I can verify if my ISO is good or bad? | 20:40 |
| winXPuser | nokia3510, join #ubuntu-bots | 20:40 |
| fausto | I'm having a problem with upstart (or init, or whatever lucid uses), I stoped my mysql server with "sudo stop mysql", changed some config and then tried starting it again with "sudo start --verbose mysql" but nothing hapens, start just locks the terminal and never returns. Anyone have any sugestion? | 20:40 |
| purpley | Any idea actionparsnip | 20:40 |
| Jordan_U | !md5 | Plugh | 20:40 |
| ubottu | Plugh: 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 | 20:40 |
| justin22885 | gdm is just a login, nothing more | 20:40 |
| guntbert | !askthebot | nokia3510 | 20:40 |
| ubottu | nokia3510: Please investigate with me only with "/msg ubottu Bot" or in #ubuntu-bots. Search for factoids with "/msg ubottu !search factoid". | 20:40 |
| nokia3510 | thanks winXPuser | 20:40 |
| justin22885 | id like to login automatically into gnome without using gdm | 20:40 |
| Networking | linuxlurker: I think it's listed, but on ifconfig, there is only lo | 20:41 |
| Networking | so it may be a driver issue | 20:41 |
| lucas-arg1 | hello, Im using xubuntu and Im missing icons in Ubuntu Software Center... is it fixable? | 20:41 |
| guntbert | justin22885: gdm is "gnome display manager" -- thats a little more than "just a login" | 20:42 |
| ActionParsnip | purpley: if you run: sudo iwlist scan does it show SSIDs? | 20:42 |
| linuxlurker | Networking, what type of network card? | 20:42 |
| hutch | Lucid won't mount my mp3 player. It did for one day then reported that it could not read super block. CanI force mount it? | 20:42 |
| Sam_Fisher | winXPuser, tracker metadata database, indexer and search tool. | 20:42 |
| bodom | madsdyd: what about disabling udev then trying to upgrade/reinstall it? | 20:42 |
| purpley | Actionparsnip yes | 20:42 |
| bodom | madsdyd: it's hard to guess your problem without knowing the exact error messages | 20:42 |
| ActionParsnip | purpley: awesome, if you use network manager, does it show SSIDs? | 20:43 |
| madsdyd | bodom: The thing is, the stupid system does not actually give any errors. It just hangs. | 20:43 |
| Networking | linuxlurker: its from virtualbox, PCnet-FAST III (Am79C973) | 20:43 |
| madsdyd | bodom: how do I disable udevd | 20:43 |
| GodricBrutus | i messed up my sound somehow. i did everything i couls do from !sound, and it didnt work. i still have no sound. i ran alsamixer, and everything is alraedy on max volume; nothing is on 'M'.

| GodricBrutus | with my issue? http://i.imgur.com/U6lre.jpg | 20:43 |
| purpley | Actionparsnip yes | 20:43 |
| ActionParsnip | purpley: then connect away | 20:43 |
| Take0n | when I connect to my computer through SSH, how can I open a video file to play in my computer's screen? | 20:44 |
| fausto | my upstart scripts are not working, when I try to use "start" or "stop" on mysql it just hangs there doing nothing and don't return to the terminal), anyone have nay ideas? | 20:44 |
| Networking | linuxlurker: from lspci, it says Ethernet Controller: Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) 79c790 [PCnet32 LANCE] | 20:44 |
| guntbert | Take0n: use ssh -X user@host (its a big X) | 20:44 |
| ActionParsnip | Take0n: when you connect use: ssh -X username@server | 20:44 |
| madsdyd | bodom: Something does work, it reacts to evets. But, no ttys, no X, no sysV start. | 20:45 |
| linuxlurker | Networking, the lspci description looks more relevant | 20:45 |
| bodom | madsdyd: update-rc.d udev disable | 20:45 |
| madsdyd | bodom: thx | 20:45 |
| aunn | I am on 10.04 and I want to use IRC. However empathy does not show IRC account creation, telepathy-idle is already installed. What else do I need to configure? | 20:45 |
| ActionParsnip | Networking: try a different adapter, virtualbox has a few.I seem to remember its DNS server needing to be set if the guest is windows | 20:45 |
| madsdyd | bodom: need a reboot first | 20:45 |
| bodom | madsdyd: mhh... issuing a ctr+C? | 20:45 |
| wooj | aunn, ummm you're on irc. but you can just install an irc client like xchat or irssi | 20:45 |
| linuxlurker | Networking, I'm googling it :) | 20:45 |
| Take0n | let me try! | 20:46 |
| ActionParsnip | Take0n: you can then use: totem file.avi or whatever and it will play | 20:46 |
| Take0n | I was thinking of a command like export DISPLAY=:0,0 or something but I am not quite sure | 20:46 |
| aunn | wooj: i know, it's from pidgin win 7 ;) i don't want to install another client when empathy already support irc | 20:46 |
| madsdyd | bodom: not sure I have job control with out a ttye? | 20:46 |
| Take0n | I am using putty to connect from my phone to my pc and I am not sure how to enter -X option | 20:46 |
| Networking | ActionParsnip: the host is windows, guest linux | 20:46 |
| betzi | n #ubuntu | 20:46 |
| tim | help i just installed and now usb doesn't work | 20:47 |
| guntbert | Take0n: you don't need that with ssh -X - that sets DISPLAY correctly for you | 20:47 |
| wooj | aunn, oh. no idea about that, perhaps someone else will have an idea. I'd kill myself if I had to use an IM client to irc. | 20:47 |
| Networking | ActionParsnip: I tryed few networks, none seems to work | 20:47 |
| ActionParsnip | Networking: you may have to set stuff, not sure. Try: sudo dhclient eth0 | 20:47 |
| Plugh | Jordan_U: Thanks. Finally found the file I needed. Seems my download was bad. | 20:47 |
| aunn | wooj thx anyway | 20:47 |
| Networking | linuxlurker: I just added virtualbox addition cd | 20:47 |
| tim | fresh install, no USB what do I do? | 20:47 |
| Networking | linuxlurker: Im going to look for some driver there | 20:47 |
| Take0n | guntbert, but I don't think I can use any options like -X when I connect from my phone using putty | 20:47 |
| Networking | ActionParsnip: gonna try now | 20:48 |
| Jordan_U | Plugh: If your download is mostly good you can download only the bad bits via zsync | 20:48 |
| justin22885 | beautiful.. i removed GDM, edited the rc.local file, and voila, i now login automatically without loading GDM first, cutting my startup time in about half | 20:48 |

| betzi | hi. i have a external USB HDD listed in fstab. so I want to mount it all the time it is there. if it's not there, i dont want the boot process to halt and ask with S/M. Anyway to flag the drive as non-fatal if not there? | 20:48 |
| linuxlurker | Networking, good luck | 20:48 |
| Plugh | It would be an idea to have a link to the md5/sha1sum files on the main download page that one gets to from the main page of the Ubuntu site | 20:48 |
| guntbert | Take0n: putty supports this too - options / ssh / X11 | 20:48 |
| Networking | ActionParsnip: Error no such device | 20:48 |
| wooj | GodricBrutus, this is probably a dumb question, but have you tried rebooting? | 20:48 |
| bodom | madsdyd: if an init script hangs, you can try to terminate it using ctrl+c | 20:49 |
| AxonetBE | I can't get the maximum resolution of my external monitor, normaly it must be something like 1680x1050 but at the moment it is just 1440x900 as maximum. Can someone help me? | 20:49 |
| Plugh | Jordan_U: ok. I don't have that. I'm on a high speed link so it doesn't take that long to get the full ISO image. | 20:49 |
| Sam_Fisher | WHat terminal command do I use to back up my video settings before I update to the Proprietary driver ? | 20:49 |
| GodricBrutus | wooj, yes | 20:49 |
| wooj | GodricBrutus, ok just checking :) | 20:49 |
| Take0n | I will check if there is a new version available.. I can't find any options in my version (Nokia N97, S60 5th ed) | 20:49 |
| tar- | GodricBrutus: i have a great link for you that really saved my day when fixing sound.. wait a sec and i'll find it | 20:50 |
| aunn | well, i have gdm issue too, i want gdm tho. after i have upgraded nvidia driver, gdm is gone and i only get shell prompt. i have to login and run startx to start GUI. gdm is gone somehow. i want my gdm back | 20:50 |
| madsdyd | bodom: It never really gets to run the init scripts. Which is my problem, I think. The startup system is fundamentally broken somewhere | 20:50 |
| tim | why won't my usb work? | 20:50 |
| GodricBrutus | tar-, thank you | 20:50 |
| ActionParsnip | Networking: then run: ifconfig so you can see the network devices | 20:51 |
| benjamintheyon | question - let's say I have written a script that requires superuser privileges. Can I "turn on" these privileges ahead of time and then run the script? | 20:51 |
| Urda | Question: I thought #ubuntu+1 was supposed to open up with the Toolchain Upload??? | 20:51 |
| Dr_Willis | tim: you mean auto mounting dont work? or does mounting by hand also not work? or what exactly? | 20:51 |
| Plugh | Sam_Fisher: In the past I would have said to back up /etc/X11/xorg.conf but that file isn't always created anymore in some recent installations of Ubuntu. | 20:51 |
| madsdyd | bodom: I am not sure I can actually disable udev. update-rc.d complains a but, but I have tried. I have also recrated the initrd, and reconfigured grub. I am not really sure it will change anything, but here goes | 20:51 |
| tim | Dr Willis, I can not auto mount. I tried installing the package responsible for such. I don't know how to manually mount | 20:51 |
| Networking | ActionParsnip: no deal, just lo is present | 20:51 |
| tar- | GodricBrutus: sent it on priv :) | 20:51 |
| Dr_Willis | betzi: you could set it as 'nonauto' then mount it after a delay from /etc/rc.local | 20:51 |
| bodom | madsdyd: the common boot sequence is hardware -> grub -> kernel -> initrd -> init -> init scripts -> shell, so if it doesn't get to init it's definiterly an initrd issue | 20:51 |
| justin22885 | sooooo.. next on my table, wine | 20:51 |
| Sam_Fisher | Plugh, I guess I will run sudo nano xorg.conf and see if it is there | 20:52 |
| Plugh | ok | 20:52 |
| madsdyd | bodom: in that chain, I think it runs init, but never actually gets to the point of running any init scripts. | 20:52 |
| === pdtpatrick_ is now known as pdtpatrick | ||
| ActionParsnip | Networking: that'll be why | 20:52 |
| Plugh | Sam_Fisher: It will either be there or it won't. If it isn't, I don't know how to save the state of the X config. | 20:53 |
| Sam_Fisher | not there | 20:53 |
| madsdyd | bodom: It runs /scripts/local-premount, local-bottom and init-bottom | 20:53 |
| madsdyd | bodom: whatever that is | 20:53 |
| Networking | ActionParsnip: ? | 20:53 |
| madsdyd | Then nothing more | 20:53 |
| bodom | madsdyd: you should see a "init ver.X.y.z starting" message to confirm that | 20:53 |
| purpley1 | actionparsnip same thing, wifi card has disappeared | 20:54 |
| madsdyd | bodom: anything in /var/log/messages or other logs? | 20:54 |
| og01 | any reason why i might not have cpufreq in /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0 ? | 20:54 |
| roberto_ | ActionParsnip: hey, that didn't work but it had interesting results | 20:54 |
| betzi | Dr_Willis, but wouldnt the mount in rc.local block the boot process? Or should I use autofs? | 20:54 |
| bodom | madsdyd: if syslog isn't started, I guess no | 20:54 |
| purpley1 | Actionparsnip this happened last night that's why I did not want to use the gui | 20:54 |
| madsdyd | bodom: of course, my bad | 20:54 |
| K1ng\ | root@epic:/home/r00t/flashpolicyd# update-rc.d flashpolicyd start 2345 | 20:54 |
| K1ng\ | update-rc.d: error: expected NN after start | 20:54 |
| bodom | madsdyd: btw /scripts is on initrd | 20:54 |
| K1ng\ | someone please help me with update-rc.d | 20:54 |
| Dr_Willis | betzi: rc.local is the last service/thing that runs normally. by the time it launches you are proberly allready at the desktop. | 20:55 |
| roberto_ | ActionParsnip: when I added 127.0.0.1 to the front of that list, it was the only server that would appear in resolv.conf .. the others would go away. and no dns access obviously | 20:55 |
| Dr_Willis | betzi: plus if it fails.. it will just print an error message I belive. | 20:55 |
| ActionParsnip | roberto_: also add 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 | 20:55 |
| madsdyd | bodom: ok, it appears it runs the scripts. | 20:55 |
| madsdyd | bodom: But, I get no message about init starting | 20:55 |
| Dr_Willis | betzi: ive had BAD issues with Plymouth if things fail from getting mounted by fstab. as in. system dident boot up type big issues. | 20:55 |
| blue112 | Hello here. | 20:56 |
| bodom | madsdyd: the strange thing is that even your old kernel doesn't start up (old kernel with old initrd) | 20:56 |
| roberto_ | ActionParsnip: well google DNS and openDNS are basically the same thing .. I'm not worried aobut which servers it talks to, just so ong as it talks somewhere :) | 20:56 |
| madsdyd | bodom: well, if the /sbin/init is fucked, perhaps that is not so weird? | 20:56 |
| blue112 | I have a problem with Kate using sftp : When I try to save a file, I have a access denied message to a ".part" file... What can I do to fix that ? | 20:56 |
| betzi | Dr_Willis, thx. I'll try that. | 20:56 |
| guntbert | K1ng\: NN must be something like 80 (or 20) -- see man update-rc.d (examples toward the end) | 20:56 |
| ActionParsnip | roberto_: sure, thats why you add multiple servers, seperated by commas in the dns list in network manager | 20:56 |
| bodom | madsdyd: /sbin/init is fucked?!? | 20:56 |
| tim | is there a way to mount USB devices with out using MountManager 0.2.6? | 20:56 |
| madsdyd | bodom: I don't know! :-) | 20:56 |
| Networking | ActionParsnip, linuxlurker thx for help, I just give up :( | 20:57 |
| guntbert | !language | bodom | 20:57 |
| ubottu | bodom: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. | 20:57 |
| jamil_1 | Hello, I am unable to update ubuntu from 9.10 to 10.04. I have tried few options e.g using alternate CD but of no use | 20:57 |
| wooj | tim, sure, goto command line, use the mount command | 20:57 |
| madsdyd | ups, sorry, my bad | 20:57 |
| ActionParsnip | Networking: if its in vbox, ask in #vbox | 20:57 |
| roberto_ | ActionParsnip: I mean taht, you can add as many as you like in the network config manager, but it only will write 3 of them to resolv.conf so ... might as well save myself the trouble of typing | 20:57 |
| kc7zzv | blue112: Sounds like a permissions error, or file creation error. Are you in a local filesystem? | 20:57 |
| tim | wooj, is there a way to have it automatically mount? like windows, where I just plug it in and thats it? | 20:57 |
| federico | hi | 20:57 |
| BluesKaj | roberto_, well I tried google dns and found it disappointing and slow to resolve some sites , opendns seems more reliable so far | 20:57 |
| ActionParsnip | roberto_: sure, thats why mine is how it is | 20:57 |
| blue112 | kc7zzv, no, it's sftp. I have all the rights on the file and on the directory. | 20:57 |
| linuxlurker | Networking, nah..just retreat and regroup for another day ;) | 20:57 |
| Plugh | This time I got a good copy of the ISO file | 20:58 |
| Niettt | Question, why is there no Unmount option like in karmic in nautilus after my lucid update ? I'm afraid just ejecting my NTFS externals without an unmount option will damage them :/ | 20:58 |
| madsdyd | bodom: one thing: After all the scripts update, it stalls for approximately 10 seconds, then the fonts are slightly changed. | 20:58 |
| Networking | ActionParsnip: Ill do that later, now i gotta do something else. Cant do that now | 20:58 |
| ActionParsnip | BluesKaj: use dnsmasq and its instantaneous | 20:58 |
| wooj | tim, uhh it ought to already, has for every version of ubuntu I've run for years | 20:58 |
| roberto_ | ActionParsnip: I'll split the difference with you: 127.0.0.1, 208.67.222.222, 8.8.8.8 | 20:58 |
| madsdyd | bodom: Then I get a number of udevd errors | 20:58 |
| Networking | linuxlurker: wise words :) | 20:58 |
| ActionParsnip | roberto_: sure | 20:58 |
| roberto_ | BluesKaj: that's what I'm using too | 20:58 |
| tim | what can i do to make mine do that? it doesn't by default | 20:58 |
| Networking | \quit connection reseted by beer | 20:58 |
| federico | ubuntu doesn't mount my mp3 device, i tried dmesg, and it recognizes the device, but nothing ellse | 20:58 |
| roberto_ | ActionParsnip: I'm going to try taht .. brb | 20:58 |
| federico | any ideas? | 20:58 |
| ActionParsnip | !mount | federico | 20:58 |
| ubottu | federico: mount is used to attach devices to directories. See also https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mount | 20:59 |
| BluesKaj | roberto_, opendns or dnsmasq ? | 20:59 |
| Noume | Hi folks | 20:59 |
| ubuntujenkins | hello I have just got a logitech chat pro headset which works great. How ever to use the volume controls on the headset, I have to disable my internal sound card on the control tab of pavucontrol . Is there a command that can be used instead? | 20:59 |
| K1ng\ | update-rc.d flashpolicyd defaults will start on startup right? | 20:59 |
| Plugh | My 9.10 to 10.04 upgrade went well with only two issues still to fix. MythTV isn't starting properly (it seg faults after a while), and I have no sound from my speakers (Waiting for sound system when starting sound preferences from volume control icon) | 20:59 |
| blue112 | kc7zzv, any advice ? | 20:59 |
| ActionParsnip | BluesKaj: dns resolves are learned with time and eventually the web is o longer used for dns and all resolves take 0ms | 20:59 |
| benjamintheyon | question - let's say I have written a script that requires superuser privileges. Can I "turn on" these privileges ahead of time and then run the script? | 20:59 |
| bodom | madsdyd: if I'm not wrong, is console init script that changes fonts, so it should be loaded | 20:59 |
| h00k | benjamintheyon: you can run it with: sudo ./scriptname | 21:00 |
| Niettt | Question, why is there no Unmount option like in karmic in nautilus after my lucid update ? I'm afraid just ejecting my NTFS externals without an unmount option will damage them :/ | 21:00 |
| ActionParsnip | benjamintheyon: run the script with sudo, put sudo infront of the commands needing extra access | 21:00 |
| Dr_Willis | K1ng\: if its handled by the sysv inits that should work.. but if its handled by upstart. that update-rc.d is no longer used for upstart services | 21:00 |
| kc7zzv | blue112: Try using "touch" to create the file. That'll at least rule out some possible local errors. | 21:00 |
| madsdyd | bodom: ok. But then why does it not run the sysV initialization? | 21:00 |
| benjamintheyon | ActionParsnip, h00k: Man that makes a lot more sense. Thanks. | 21:00 |
| ActionParsnip | Niettt: sudo umount /mount/point | 21:00 |
| rome__ | hi room | 21:00 |
| guntbert | K1ng\: but be aware that runlevels have no real meaning on ubuntu | 21:00 |
| rome__ | i just wanted to say, that my new kernel 6...23 won't boot. update failed. X won't start. i am still at 22. but thx for fixing the bug with the kubuntu boot screen! | 21:00 |
| madsdyd | bodom: or whatever it is called today... | 21:00 |
| h00k | benjamintheyon: :) | 21:00 |
| h00k | ubottu: tell benjamintheyon about sudo | 21:00 |
| BluesKaj | ActionParsnip, just looking at it now | 21:00 |
| guntbert | !runlevel | K1ng\ | 21:00 |
| ubottu | benjamintheyon, please see my private message | 21:00 |
| ubottu | K1ng\: In Ubuntu all runlevels except 0,1 and 6 are by default equal. Also keep in mind that Ubuntu now uses !Upstart instead of System V init so there is normally no /etc/inittab. | 21:00 |
| blue112 | kc7zzv, the file already exists, I'm just trying to edit it. I can edit it with another editor (gedit), but I want to use Kate :/ | 21:00 |
| Niettt | ActionParsnip, is there any way to do a script to auto unmount on shutdown ? | 21:01 |
| K1ng\ | !Upstart | 21:01 |
| ubottu | 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/ | 21:01 |
| duffydack | fs checks on boot aint super fast like they are in karmic.. whats changed? | 21:01 |
| ActionParsnip | BluesKaj: sudo apt-get install dnsmasq then modify the network innetwork manager to use 127.0.0.1 then whatever DNS servers you desire | 21:01 |
| h00k | Niettt: whatever it is will be unmounted at shutdown | 21:01 |
| madsdyd | ubottu: Upstart has one dissatisfied user right here :-) | 21:01 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 21:01 |
| ActionParsnip | Niettt: it will do it automagically afaik | 21:01 |
| benjamintheyon | h00k: Thanks a bunch. I knew what it *is* basically, but I'm really new here and some of the obvious, forehead-smack stuff gets me for sure hahaha | 21:01 |
| h00k | benjamintheyon: hey, no problem :) | 21:02 |
| Niettt | Are you sure? because that was a issue in the past | 21:02 |
| federico | ok, but it would mount automatically before. | 21:02 |
| bodom | madsdyd: dunno, do you have raid? | 21:03 |
| guntbert | blue112: maybe there already is a file .part (with wrong permissions) there? | 21:03 |
| jamil_1 | Hello, I am unable to update ubuntu from 9.10 to 10.04. I have tried few obvious options including mounting alternate CD ISO but of no use. Any help ? | 21:03 |
| bjt3 | Need help with my PPC to install Ubuntu 10. No one at Ubuntu-powerpc | 21:03 |
| og01 | hey where are all the cpufreq modules? | 21:03 |
| bodom | madsdyd: if not, maybe you can try bootin without loading the initrd, the worst can happen is a kerel panic | 21:03 |
| blue112 | guntbert, nop, there's no. I already tried to create one and to give permission to it, but it's not working. | 21:03 |
| madsdyd | bodom: nopes, simple sata disk, all in /dev/sda1 (and a swap part on sda5) | 21:03 |
| roberto_ | ActionParsnip: no, any time that list of dns servers for network connection has 127.0.0.1 at the start of the list, the resolv.conf never get's the remaining servers in the list | 21:03 |
| roberto_ | ActionParsnip: maybe it's soemthing that's changed with 10.04 | 21:03 |
| guntbert | jamil_1: the recommended way is via the network | 21:03 |
| kc7zzv | blue112: I see. Any clue wether Kate or sftp is creating the .part file? | 21:03 |
| madsdyd | bodom: I am pretty sure it panics with no initrd | 21:03 |
| Noume | Just upgraded from karmic to lucid and everything apart from x configuration went fine. the upgrade manager commented almost all my custom settings in xorg.conf that are needed to get my egalax touchscreen working. now i uncommented the entries and it appears to work. However x still has a hold on the device as seen by using "xinput list" which is giving me two entries for the touchcontroller. Using xinput i could determine the false entry and d | 21:03 |
| Noume | isable it. However the change is not permanent and does not survive a restart of xorg. Is there a solution to this? | 21:03 |
| blue112 | kc7zzv, I think it's Kate. | 21:04 |
| ActionParsnip | roberto_: i use 10.04 | 21:04 |
| bodom | madsdyd: me too, but you have a chance :) | 21:04 |
| bjt3 | Ubuntu 10 Live CD does not recognize my hard drives | 21:04 |
| jamil_1 | guntbert: but I dont get an option to upgrade when I use the update manager | 21:04 |
| madsdyd | bodom: Interessting twist. I tried booting with init=/sbin/init (yes, this would appear weird), and now it says | 21:04 |
| federico | ActionParsnip: how do i find the correct address for my device to use mount? | 21:04 |
| blue112 | kc7zzv, would it be possible that Kate tries to write a *local* file in the path of the distant file ? | 21:04 |
| roberto_ | ActionParsnip: well geez, I don't know. You mean System->Preferences->Network connections ? | 21:04 |
| madsdyd | bodom: mountall: Plymouth command failed | 21:04 |
| bodom | madsdyd: the other way is compiling a standalone kernel and trying it, or booting from a live cd kernel using your root partition | 21:04 |
| ActionParsnip | federico: you can mount the device to any empty folder | 21:05 |

| madsdyd | bodom: init then complains a bit more about this plymouth stuff. | 21:05 |
| ActionParsnip | roberto_: no, i use network-manager | 21:05 |
| duffydack | Anyone know why a filesystem check (sudo touch /forcefsck) upon boot is really really slow while a livecd boot, then fsck.ext4 check is done in seconds? | 21:05 |
| roberto_ | ActionParsnip: aha! where is that? | 21:05 |
| madsdyd | bodom: the thing is, I *can* boot with init=/bin/bash | 21:05 |
| federico | ActionParsnip but i don't know how to refer to the device in order to mount it | 21:05 |
| kc7zzv | I've tried to get preseeding to work in Lucid and I've looked on google, but I can't get it to work. It always asks me how I want to partition the disk. Does anyone have a sample to share? | 21:06 |
| federico | sudo mount ... what? | 21:06 |
| madsdyd | bodom: So, I really think it is a problem with the !Startup system - don't you think? | 21:06 |
| bodom | madsdyd: ok, so boot with init=/bin/bash and then type init 1 at the prompt | 21:06 |
| ActionParsnip | roberto_: in the notification area, nm-applet | 21:06 |
| bodom | madsdyd: let's see what happens | 21:06 |
| ActionParsnip | federico: run: sudo fdisk -l | 21:06 |
| Surlent777 | hey guys...I have a simple, I hope, issue: I upgraded to Lucid, and now when I try and, in this example, type "sudo aptitude remove gno" and then hit tab for autocomplete, it tells me the following: "grep-status: /var/lib/dpkg/status:59950: expected a colon". I opened that file up in vi, went to line 59950, and found out that it's a "Suggests" line for openoffice.org-common. There is a colon after suggests. Any ideas as to what might be wrong? | 21:07 |

| justin22885 | hmm | 21:07 |
| federico | it does't apear | 21:07 |
| ActionParsnip | roberto_: sure | 21:07 |
| Dr_Willis | madsdyd: i see that on most all my machines. | 21:07 |
| roberto_ | ActionParsnip: sorry, I just don't know | 21:07 |
| madsdyd | Dr_Willis: I take it, they still boot? | 21:07 |
| justin22885 | ok.. | 21:08 |

| jamil_1 | guntbert: yp | 21:08 |
| federico | ActionParsnip, the device doesn't apear there | 21:08 |
| blue112 | kc7zzv, guntbert, is there anything I can try ? | 21:08 |
| madsdyd | Dr_Willis: Mine does not. It hangs, with init complaining about plymouth | 21:08 |
| Dr_Willis | madsdyd: been having issues with the nvidia drivers not gettitng iniitlized fast ehought however. | 21:08 |
| Surlent777 | cowguru2000: Open a terminal and type "alsamixer". Make sure everything that needs to be is turned on in there | 21:08 |
| h00k | krystian: /join #ubuntu-pl | 21:08 |

| johniee | I did a fresh install of Ubuntu 10.04. During the process dmraid was recognizing two of my hard disks as raid so I removed dmraid via the synaptic and installed Ubuntu on the first disk. However now the second disk cannot be recognized by Ubuntu. Any ideas? | 21:08 |
| evident | can anybody tell me how i can change my default desktop manager from gdm to fluxbox? I added fluxbox to the /usr/share/xsessions list and now can choose it from the login menu... but how do I make it default? | 21:08 |
| madsdyd | Dr_Willis: Care to hint how? | 21:08 |
| * madsdyd gets eager now | 21:08 | |
| naadde | what is initramfs | 21:08 |
| roberto_ | ActionParsnip: that .. my network icon doesn't have any way to edit the configuration for the connections there. On my copy of Lucid, you have to use the System->Preferences->Network Connections manager to configure those | 21:09 |
| cowguru2000 | Monotoko: no, i haven't | 21:09 |
| Dr_Willis | madsdyd: /etc/init rename whatevber.conf to whatever.DONTRUNME | 21:09 |
| Webmaster | hi | 21:09 |
| cowguru2000 | Surlent777: will do, hold on | 21:09 |
| Dr_Willis | madsdyd: the joys of Upstart :) | 21:09 |
| madsdyd | Dr_Willis: check. Will do | 21:09 |
| * Webmaster saying hello to all :) | 21:09 | |
| Monotoko | cowguru2000, System -> Administration -> Hardware Drivers | 21:09 |
| Monotoko | see if it gives you anything for sound | 21:09 |
| madsdyd | Dr_Willis: Don't get me started. I did not ask for this :-) (Grumble. Get those hacker-kids off my lawn :-) | 21:09 |
| Surlent777 | I didn't know they had drivers for sound there...I've only seen wireless and graphics drivers | 21:09 |
| guntbert | jamil_1: then try (from CLI) sudo do-release-upgrade | 21:09 |
| roberto_ | ActionPArsnip left :S | 21:09 |
| Plugh | madsdyd: I also am a little unhappy about Upstart. I ran in to a major problem with it the other day. I can get the gdm login screen but if the system hasn't finished running fsck on my user partition the system (GUI) gets hung up. Since the fsck is done "behind the scenes" I don't know if it is doing an fsck of any given partition. | 21:10 |

| duffydack | ratdog, if you have compiz enabled, its either alt+button1 or super+button1. | 21:15 |
| duffydack | ratdog, you can drag the window that way... | 21:16 |

| bodom | madsdyd: it should work, if your partitions are mounted correctly | 21:21 |
| Dr_Willis | dernen: ive seen some guides/docs on doint that. you basicially script/change the bootloader configs as you shutdown/reboot | 21:21 |
| madsdyd | dewman: apt-get remove -f package | 21:21 |
| h00k | dernen: Not unless you can tell grub what to select by default next, which you won't be able to do with Windows. | 21:21 |
| bodom | madsdyd: maybe use mountall first | 21:21 |
| madsdyd | bodom: they are | 21:21 |
| Surlent777 | dernen: Actually there is such a thing, assuming you're using Ext3 on Linux side | 21:21 |

| dernen | Surlent777: thats not a problem | 21:21 |
| Dr_Willis | dernen: grub has a 'last saved/default' option that you can change but the whole thing gets to be a mess real fast. :) | 21:21 |
| bodom | madsdyd: mhhh... I'm not sure, should be a bin, not a script | 21:22 |

| wooj | taofd, awkward, yeah | 21:34 |
| madsdyd | bodom: Thanks for trying. This really is a weird and annoying problem. Reminds me of 1993 versions of slackware, or something. Not a usefull error message in sight. | 21:34 |
| Polemus | been using ubuntu 9.10 in Virtual environment to get used to it, and i now want to make it my main os... however... from previos experiences i know it doesn't support multiple monitors out the box...

| RyanP | We're using Linux in some schools. I received a complaint about some clip art being inappropriate. I've removed the 'offending' files, but the file names are still showing up in OpenOffice. Is there any way to have it reload the list of files? This is Ubuntu Jaunty, Openoffice 3.0.1. | 21:34 |
| PorkusMcG | bastid_raZor: cool, should be simple enough. But this begs the grander question, why isn't something like this made noob-friendly? I mean this would be somewhat daunting to a 50-year-old noob, where they could do this in Windows (sadly) without much trouble. :( oh well. | 21:34 |
| Vadtec | it seems that ubuntu doesnt use xorg.conf for much...where does it store the resolution settings for the graphics driver/Xorg? | 21:34 |

| taofd | wooj, uh oh, no "nvidia' entry under drivers | 21:35 |
| taofd | wooj, oh wait nvm i see it xD | 21:35 |
| PorkusMcG | New2LinuxGuy1: it used to be escape .. .not sure if it still is though. | 21:35 |
| wooj | taofd, I dont even think xorg is used. uh try apt-get remove nvidia-glx-new or whatever you used to install the drivers. or apt-get install xserver-xorg-vesa or w/e its called, to replace the nvidia server | 21:35 |
| BluesKaj | dewman, sudo dpkg --clear-avail | 21:35 |
| librano | hey all! | 21:35 |
| h00k | Vadtec: xorg.conf isn't needed anymore, but it will use what you have in it, if the file exists | 21:35 |
| wooj | taofd, er xorg.conf that is | 21:35 |
| guntbert | New2LinuxGuy1: the right shift key | 21:35 |
| bodom | madsdyd: maybe your last chance is to check if you can boot the live cd. If you can, consider installing a new / in a brand new partition, then move it over the old one. I know, that's not a solution. | 21:35 |
| librano | any hopes for Ubuntu One Music store hitting Amarok? | 21:35 |

| taofd | wooj, no i dont :( | 21:38 |
| Vadtec | h00k: thats why im trying to get into vesa mode, cause i know it will work | 21:38 |
| madsdyd | bodom: I don't know either. I can't get my network to work (depends on Upstart, it seems), so I can't uninstall, reinstall | 21:38 |
| madsdyd | sigh | 21:38 |
| bodom | madsdyd: yep, very complicated. Maybe you can try linux-from-scratch instead... it's funny (and damn long to achieve, like a puzzle) | 21:38 |

| madsdyd | bodom: Don't really have the time for that though :-) | 21:38 |
| wooj | taofd, oh awkward. sounds like a gpu issue to me. do you have a livecd or other os you can boot to make sure it isnt just a bad config or whatever? | 21:38 |
| Stanley__ | my driver is installed and active and everything...it just won't recognize my router | 21:39 |
| taofd | wooj, yeah... but thats a hassle :( | 21:39 |
| taofd | wooj, was hoping could just set it to vesa quick and fix it later | 21:39 |
| BluesKaj | Stanley__, iwconfig | 21:39 |
| wooj | taofd, yeah but apparently its all messed up there too | 21:39 |
| taofd | wooj, i'm removing all nvidia modules though right now hopefully it'll reconfigure everything correctly | 21:40 |
| Stanley__ | BluesKaj: is that it | 21:40 |
| JayT | How do I disable the hwclock completely, my RTC is fubared. I want to rely on ntp daemon solely. | 21:40 |
| taofd | wooj, yeah, but i changed it to vesa, then manually restart X... dont knwo if i have to give specific parameters | 21:40 |
| bodom | madsdyd: or maybe just try to keep asking, having some luck, you'll find someone who knows a solution. Gtg now, see you and.. god luck :) | 21:40 |
| JayT | I don't want ubuntu to ever read hwblock | 21:40 |
| BluesKaj | Stanley__, does iwconfig show a wlan connection | 21:40 |
| Gaming4JC | ah ha... Ubuntu bug, should have known <_< | 21:40 |
| madsdyd | bodom: thanks! | 21:41 |
| RyanP | guntbert: In the clipart gallery. Perhaps it's something in that package that I need to be looking at, but I'm not sure. The files themselves are part of the openclipart-png package. The package itself doesn't seem to have any sort of thumbnails. | 21:41 |
| taofd | wooj, my screen looks like divided in 1/3rd where from 1/3rd onwards its the left half o my screen, while 0/3rds (most left of lcd) it's the final 2/3rd to 3/3rds of my screen | 21:41 |
| Stanley__ | BluesKaj: yes it does | 21:41 |
| wooj | taofd, bite the bullet and boot a livecd | 21:41 |
| taofd | wooj so yeah, kinda weird because if i move stuff too far off the right of my screen, it comes onto the left 3rd of my screen xD | 21:41 |
| taofd | wooj, i need to download a new iso though, don't have any live cds on me :( which is why it's a hassle | 21:41 |

| PorkusMcG | Stanley__: is your wlan aware of wireless networks available? (should show a few from your neighborhood). If the wlan is installed all happy, then you should have a wireless icon up by your clock that you can click. BluesKaj probably has it all figured out already, but I figured I would ask. | 21:43 |
| MrDummy | Ubuntu 10.04 has bluez default installed | 21:43 |

Everything works fantastically EXCEPT for network-manager-openvpn.. The connection starts, I get the lock icon on the wifi panel, but cannot ping anything thru the tunnel.. Then if I leave it, eventually I get the popup telling me the vpn connection failed. I have a snippet of /var/log/messages at http://ubuntu.pas | 22:22 |

| BluesKaj | PorkusMcG, dunno about -m designation , but lucid is an official release now so the -d is no l.onger valid , I wasn't aware of the -m up til now | 22:36 |

| RyanP | hmw: It depends on the game. If you have an account on the neighbouring machine, you could do something like ssh [machinename] "ps aux" | grep game | 22:37 |

| drbobb | hi, it looks like lucid broke a large part of support for usb devices, can anyone confirm that? | 22:38 |
| _Narc_ | Hello everyone. Anyone knows why I'm getting very slow file transfer speed from an ext3 partition to another on Lucid ? It's about 3MB/s... | 22:38 |
| Yoshario | ok | 22:38 |
| Yoshario | is there an option | 22:38 |
| taofd | BluesKaj, -m specifies which version server or desktop | 22:38 |
| Yoshario | that lets me reinstall? | 22:38 |
| NiteSnow | joker_, then it is an option in The Update-grub command | 22:38 |
| taofd | BluesKaj, i think default is server, so -m here is neessary | 22:38 |
| jrib | Yoshario: you put the disk in and install again. This wipes all of your data on the disk | 22:38 |
| bp0 | why does ubuntu-tweak put itself in the system tools menu, but lshw-gtk puts itself in the preferences menu... that seems backwards | 22:39 |
| Yoshario | I used wubi | 22:39 |
| joker_ | NiteSnow I haven't given any options | 22:39 |
| Yoshario | is there an ubuntu option that will reset | 22:39 |
| NiteSnow | joker_, you need to cd to /boot/grub on the mounted disk | 22:40 |
| dominicdinada | I cant get my stupid network configured correctly I tried setting it via Ebox.... Broke... Undid what I set in ebox... then I configured it manually then nothing wow | 22:40 |

| hmw | RyanP: nice idea, but a) my server's ssh does not accept --password and b) it would take a second or so, thus slowing down the web page. Can I just test the port for being in use on the neighbour? | 22:42 |

| Barnabas | from the client | 22:44 |
| NiteSnow | joker_, uh ill look this one up | 22:44 |
| PorkusMcG | BluesKaj: I guess it was sorta department of redunancy department. the -m switch is merely a mode ... accepts desktop and server. | 22:44 |
| xangua | bollyman: is that a program¿ if it's incluided in the repositories you can easyly install it and try in in the live cd | 22:44 |
| BluesKaj | PorkusMcG, taofd , I haven't seen any issues discussed with the do-release-upgrade , so I'm not aware of other options . i naturally assumed the sources.list and installed apps determined what packages woulr be upgraded with the kernel | 22:44 |

| NiteSnow | joker_, uh this would be easyier for me to do it due to the fact that it depends greatly on the system and they way it's setup | 22:51 |
| PorkusMcG | _Narc_: are both partitions on the same physical disc, is that drive healthy, and is it physicallly capable of faster? | 22:51 |
| Barnabas | joker_, unless you changed the physical layout of patitions on your hd you should not have to | 22:51 |
| RyanP | hwm: There seems to be something wrong with that command, but nmap will check a specific port, and report if it's open or now. | 22:51 |

| joker_ | Barbabas there were no problems until I messed up with /etc/default/grub and initramfs | 23:03 |
| xangua | Take0n: increase the panel size | 23:03 |
| PorkusMcG | Take0n: if you increase the panel size to around 50 pixels, its automatic | 23:03 |

| Jon- | jrib: One small issue: If I do it this way I have to have VLC as my active window. Is there a way to get the system to interpert the command, and SEND it to VLC? [as I am assuming it does for Rhythmbox, as the controls for next track, etc. globally exist in Keyboard shortcuts] | 23:04 |

| FloodBot1 | !netsplit | 23:05 |
| ubottu | netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit | 23:06 |
| Take0n | PorkusMcG, well not the whole screen but in order to get the date above the clock I have to make the panel size 34 and some icons get just too big.. its ugly :\ is there a way to decreaze the text size of the clock/date to have the same result with smaller panel? | 23:06 |
| jrib | Jon-: vlc probably has some command line way to go to next track right? like you run "vlc-client --next-track" for example. If that's true, then you can just use xbindkeys to bind your key to that command. Another possibility is see if you can make vlc your default music app in system -> preferences -> apps (I don't know if this is possible or, even if it is, if it will affect the shortcuts) | 23:07 |
| xeer0 | Does someone have a clue about why my xvideo scaling stopped working from 9.10 to 10.04? Ati HD2400 | 23:07 |
| PorkusMcG | Take0n: I have never investigated that, but I would think that it is possible somehow. I will see what I can dig up. | 23:07 |
| Jon- | jrib: Or I could install windows. HAHA just kidding (but I do dualboot). I'll take a look =D | 23:07 |
| jrib | Jon-: *cough* why don't you just use mpd? :) | 23:07 |
| Narya | How can I get the volume controller back on my taskbar? | 23:08 |

| xeer0 | Narya: To have it launch at every boot make a custom startup program with that command | 23:09 |

| domjohnson | Hello | 23:11 |
| onetinsoldier | hello all | 23:11 |
| domjohnson | are trackballs compatible with Linux? | 23:11 |
| cedwards | I need to install 10.04 Desktop to a USB drive (thumb drive). What method(s) are suggested for doing this? | 23:11 |
| onetinsoldier | domjohnson: i'm not sure, but i think so. hopefully someone can answer for certain | 23:11 |
| datta | firefox is acting weird with ubuntu as I get this error when I try to install a new addon: because: Download error -228 | 23:11 |
| wildbat | cedwards, just normal install | 23:12 |
| datta | I searched over 228 and found what it is | 23:12 |
| MikeChelen | !usb | 23:12 |
| ubottu | For information about installing Ubuntu from USB flash drives, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick - For a persistent live USB install, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent | 23:12 |
| resno_ | is samba using upstart now? | 23:12 |
| Take0n | datta, try to clear your cache | 23:12 |
| PorkusMcG | Take0n: It appears that the font used in the date/time is the same size as the one for applications. So if you go to system>Preferences>appearance, choose the fonts tab, you can decrease the font for APPLICATION. This has a negative side effect of shrinking other application fonts though, and I am not sure this is what you want. | 23:12 |
| cedwards | wildbat: just do a normal install but select the USB drive as the destination? | 23:12 |
| onetinsoldier | cedwards: i'd recommend using 'unetbootin' | 23:12 |
| wildbat | cedwards, correct | 23:12 |
| Matthias81 | hi | 23:12 |
| datta | Take0n: I cleared my cache | 23:12 |
| resno_ | !hi | Matthias81 | 23:12 |
| ubottu | Matthias81: 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! | 23:12 |
| wildbat | onetinsoldier, he want install to USB not frm USB~ | 23:12 |
| VCoolio | datta: try this: download the .xpi file for the addon then in firefox file > open | 23:13 |
| onetinsoldier | wildbat: i see, roger | 23:13 |
| Take0n | I had this prob a while back but a cache clear and a restart seemed enough to fix it | 23:13 |
| cedwards | wildbat: I will try that. Do I need to do anything fancy to make sure GRUB gets on there too, or just "pay attention"? :) | 23:13 |
| Jon- | jrib: How hard is config? Is it just an apt-get install mpd and go? | 23:13 |
| Take0n | there are thread about it so google it you should find helpful info | 23:13 |
| datta | VCoolio: will try that, thanks for the idea | 23:13 |
| janisozaur | can I install gcc 4.5 (https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-toolchain-r/+archive/test) alongside default 4.4? | 23:13 |
| resno_ | how do i restart samba? i guess its an upstart app but samba wont autocomplete for it | 23:13 |
| VCoolio | Jon-: no, mpd and then a client, like ario or sonata (gui) or ncmpcpp (cli) | 23:13 |
| Take0n | PorkusMcG, thanks I will try and see | 23:13 |
| jrib | Jon-: and then just let it know where your library is, yeah | 23:14 |
| PorkusMcG | Take0n: no problemo. I hope it gets you at least part way there. I have to go now though ... takin family out for the evening. Good luck! | 23:14 |
| VCoolio | Jon-: also you'll need to edit mpd.conf first, find a decent howto (believe me, it's worth it) | 23:14 |
| Jon- | VCoolio: I really don't feel like making a fricking server just to have a button on my keyboard go to the next track... | 23:14 |
| wildbat | cedwards, just make use grub are written the USB /dev/sdc not /dev/sda or/dev/sdb if yu have two HD ~ and so on ~ | 23:14 |
| onetinsoldier | resno_: does 'service smbd restart' do anything? | 23:14 |
| janisozaur | resno_: "sudo service samba restart" | 23:14 |
| Take0n | thank you and have a nice evening =) | 23:14 |
| jken146 | Goodnight ubuntu. | 23:15 |
| cedwards | wildbat: thanks. once this .iso finishes (damned slow dsl line!) I'll give it a try. | 23:15 |
| _Narc_ | domjohnson : I'm addicted to trackballs, used them for years, mostly Logitech and I never had any problem on any version of Ubuntu. | 23:15 |
| domjohnson | ok | 23:15 |
| Jon- | Fine. I'll use this MPD stuff | 23:15 |
| domjohnson | _Narc_ - do you usually have to get them from the internet or do independant computer shops stock them (usually)? | 23:16 |
| Jon- | How easy is it to configure keyboard short-cuts that work GLOBALLY? [in any other workspace, etc] | 23:16 |
| Jon- | For MPD | 23:16 |
| resno_ | onetinsoldier: janisozaur thanks... is that upstart for services? | 23:16 |
| onetinsoldier | resno_: yes | 23:16 |
| jrib | Jon-: I use xbindkeys for that | 23:16 |
| wildbat | cedwards, lol that's the advanced country ! ~ look at china they have 30Mbits ISP for $300RMB laugh at them ! XD | 23:16 |
| onetinsoldier | resno_: and i think samba is.. smb, and smbd | 23:16 |
| k4ever | hi all. just installed 10.04 on an old gateway 7510gx laptop. how do I activate compiz. software manager says its installed but the settings manager is not in the menu. | 23:16 |
| VCoolio | !ccsm | k4ever | 23:17 |
| ubottu | k4ever: To enable advanced customization of desktop effects in Ubuntu: install 'compizconfig-settings-manager' or 'simple-ccsm'. If you install the latter, a new option will appear in your appearance properties - See also !compiz - Help in #compiz | 23:17 |
| k4ever | using an old ati mobility radeon x600 card | 23:17 |
| resno_ | onetinsoldier: are groups doing upstart in their own methods? | 23:17 |
| datta | VCoolio: thanks for the idea, worked great but had to use a different browser to download it still | 23:17 |
| Jon- | jrib: How do I configure xbindkeys? | 23:17 |
| onetinsoldier | resno_: not sure what you're asking there | 23:17 |
| VCoolio | datta: weird, but if it works, enjoy | 23:18 |
| jrib | Jon-: so to answer your question, you install xbindkeys, have it start when you log in, create a ~/.xbindkeysrc (for example, the command for next track using mpc is "mpc next", so my xbindkeys has: "mpc next"<newline> Shift + F6 | 23:18 |
| resno_ | onetinsoldier: just ignore me, im grubbling about how each app may be doing it differently | 23:18 |
| Jon- | jrib: Is there a GUI I can use? | 23:18 |
| Jon- | jrib: I have no idea how to tell it to use a key off the keyboard from CLI | 23:18 |
| onetinsoldier | resno_: i don't think apps are doing it differently, but i don't really know for sure | 23:19 |
| masu3701 | how do i make my wireless card work ? | 23:19 |
| jrib | Jon-: not that I know of. If you use compiz, ccsm has some sort of gui for creating keybindings for commands | 23:19 |
| VCoolio | Jon-: it's straigthforward, also xbindkeys has an option to tell you what a key is called | 23:19 |
| DjAngo23 | Hey everyone, since my upgrade to 10.04 when i reboot, i get : An error occurred while mounting /proc/bus/usb. I read about removing the last line from /etc/fstab but, when i try to edit it, it says : Read only file system. Any idea ? | 23:19 |
| _Narc_ | domjohnson : I get my Logitech ones from their websites or from my computer store usually. | 23:19 |
| VCoolio | Jon-: there is also a gui for xbindkeys, forgot the name, do 'apt-cache search xbindkeys' to find it | 23:19 |

| onetinsoldier | hkais: and the man page for lsof looks pretty daunting if you ask me | 23:31 |
| duffydack | jbendotnet, I dont know what that means tbh... | 23:31 |

| duffydack | jbendotnet, what does vbox report as the file size and used size of the vm hd image | 23:32 |
| cowguru2000 | Monotoko: i did what you suggested (live USB)... my sound is now working | 23:32 |
| BluesKaj | !puregnome | ksos | 23:32 |
| ubottu | ksos: If you want to remove all !KDE packages, type « sudo apt-get --purge remove kdelibs4c2a kdelibs5-data && sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop » into a !terminal | 23:32 |
| cowguru2000 | so, do you suggest a fresh install? | 23:32 |
| duffydack | jbendotnet, just to rule out the dynamic nature of the image | 23:32 |
| tgalal | empathy is good, but it lacks many features in pidgin. I want to remove empathy, install pidgin and make pidgin fully integrated in panel exactly like empathy were. is it possible ? | 23:32 |
| Polemus | would anyone mind helping me set up my third monitor on ubuntu lucid? | 23:32 |
| duffydack | tgalal, install pidgin.. job done | 23:32 |

| tgalal | duffydack, great thanks :D | 23:33 |
| jbendotnet | duffydack: not sure how to find out | 23:33 |
| DoorMan | i went to update manager and tried to update but said I needed to do a partial upgrade. do you know what this entails? | 23:33 |
| duffydack | tgalal, I agree.. its very basic in comparison | 23:33 |
| z0z | hi guys | 23:33 |
| jbendotnet | for now, deciding to attempt to fix that error | 23:33 |
| Monotoko | cowguru2000, awesome, it will be the update then...its up to you now...you can try and track down the bug that killed your sound (cant help there sadly) or you can backup and install 10.04 clean | 23:33 |
| duffydack | jbendotnet, storage manager... | 23:33 |
| cowguru2000 | Monotoko: I think I'll just do the clean install :( | 23:33 |
| cowguru2000 | Monotoko: thanks a lot! | 23:34 |

| duffydack | jbendotnet, with a dynamic hd, anything you add grows its size, but when you delete it, it doesnt decrease... | 23:35 |
| jbendotnet | duffydack: mv /var/lib/dpkg/info/linux-libc-dev.list /var/lib/dpkg/info/linux-libc-dev.list.broke | 23:35 |
