| onetinsoldier | Slasher`: roger.. good luck | 00:00 |
| rem11 | are both problems a bug? | 00:00 |
| rem11 | or just the crap logo | 00:00 |
| duffydack | rem11, i only see it for 1 second anyway so its not a problem | 00:00 |
| Slasher` | onetinsoldier; i'll need it haha, thanks | 00:00 |
| Coppermine | Polemus: i only know for nvidia, u have nvidia or what gpu? | 00:00 |
| duffydack | rem11, that page has the fix | 00:00 |
| kwtm2 | z3ro3x: Not sure how to answer your question, but I have one for you: how do you restart Xorg? What key combo? | 00:00 |
| newbie_ | Is there any reason why a KDE session shouldnt work when i select it at ubuntus login screen? Its just a big black nothing | 00:00 |
| z3r0-c001 | How do I USB boot from a mac | 00:00 |
| xeer0 | Does someone have a clue about why my xvideo scaling stopped working from 9.10 to 10.04? I use Ati HD2400 | 00:00 |
| rem11 | i can live with the logo, the main issue is the inability to control the backlight with the nvidia drivers | 00:00 |
| Jon- | jrib: Why is it everytime I want to do ONE small thing in Ubuntu, it takes a day? | 00:00 |
| rem11 | not even my function brightness keys work | 00:00 |
| Polemus | Coppermine: yes i have nvidia | 00:00 |
| z3ro3x | kwtm2, I used System Monitor to kill xorg. | 00:00 |
| jrib | Jon-: because it's fun! | 00:01 |
| Jon- | jrib: FYI it's #videolan by the way. | 00:01 |
| onetinsoldier | Slasher`: i know how you feel :-) | 00:01 |
| jrib | Jon-: ah | 00:01 |
| tomhome21 | i just installed compiz-fusion and it screwed up everything. it got rid of all the hotkeys (not even in the menu anymore) and wont let me use the effects tab in appearance. how can i get this corrected without reinstalling the whole os? | 00:01 |
| Coppermine | Polemus: open terminal and type sudo nvidia-settings | 00:01 |
| david_brent | kwtm2: you can set the ctrl-alt-bcksp at preferences keyboard->layout->layout options | 00:01 |
| domjohnson | g'night | 00:01 |
| Coppermine | Polemus: u should be able to config it all there :) | 00:01 |
| Jon- | jrib: A good 190 users vs... 4. :P | 00:01 |
| Slasher` | tomhome21; try pressing alt+f2 and typing "metacity --replace" without the quotes | 00:01 |
| kwtm2 | Jon-: Because, although Ubuntu is riddled with problems, each of these problems are considered "small" by the developers because they know how to get around it easily. Unfortunately, they don't see that, for most people who don't know how to get around this, the problems can be showstoppers. | 00:01 |
| z3ro3x | kwtm2, It's in System -> Administration. When it opens click View -> All Processes. | 00:02 |
| histo | bastid_raZor: yeah it should be around 6.5MB/s | 00:02 |
| josvuk | What does link quality:0 signal level:0 in iwconfig mean? Does my wireless device don't recieves a signal from a other wifi device? | 00:02 |
| kwtm2 | david_brent: Umm... if I have a completely blank screen that I can't use (which is why I need to restart), what key combo can I use without having to use the GUI which has become unusable? | 00:02 |
| Jon- | kwtm2: Can't agree more. I'm in second year computer science but because I am a command prompt guru but bad with BASH/xterm and a Linux environment, I get my shit tossed like a grandma ;O | 00:02 |
| leagris | Anyone can help with sound input in wine as it worked in Karmic but no longer show alsa wave input device in Lucid? | 00:02 |
| kwtm2 | z3ro3x: Thanks for reply. I am using Kubuntu; different menu system. | 00:02 |
| Polemus | Coppermine: sudo: nvidia-settings: command not found | 00:02 |
| histo | josvuk: what kind of wireless card do you have? | 00:03 |
| david_brent | kwtm2: just restart gdm | 00:03 |
| histo | josvuk: and when you are connected you should see a link quality and signal noise level. | 00:03 |
| david_brent | sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart | 00:03 |
| xeer0 | kwtm2: Well put. Although Ubuntu has improved alot, it still has a long way to go to become as easy to use as Windows if you're not a IT-dude. On the other hand, Windows has viruses and all sorts of malware, which noobs get anyway | 00:03 |
| onetinsoldier | kwtm2: you should be able to get to a virtual console with Ctrl+Alt+F1 or, F2, F3, ect | 00:03 |
| z3ro3x | kwtm2, I don't remember, I haven't used KDE in a while. I switched to Gnome about the same time KDE 4 came out. | 00:03 |
| Coppermine | anyone here to help me plz | 00:04 |
| Polemus | Coppermine: Could it be because it's busy downloading the nvidia 3d driver? | 00:04 |
| tomhome21 | metacity replace worked, but it wont let me put the effects on medium | 00:04 |
| Jon- | jrib: Gotta eat dinner. Tans | 00:04 |
| tomhome21 | if i do, it kills the hotkeys again | 00:04 |
| kwtm2 | david_brent: Thanks for info. How do I restart GDM? Kill GDM? I actually have a second instance of the GUI running (with Ctrl-Alt-F8) but am trying to restart the main instance (Ctrl-Alt-F7) | 00:04 |
| josvuk | histo: one is build in the apple g4 the other is build into the playstation3 runing linux, must I log in to activate the wireless on the playsttion | 00:04 |
| histo | josvuk: you have to change the settings for the wireless yes | 00:05 |
| kwtm2 | z3ro3x: I hear ya. I'm just switching to KDE4 now myself after clinging to KDE3. Disappointing, to say the least. | 00:05 |
| david_brent | kwtm2: just type to a terminal "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart" | 00:05 |
| histo | josvuk: depending on the card you may need firmware as well. But that would show in restricted drivers manager | 00:05 |
| Coppermine | Polemus: yes, otherwise u can install it using sudo apt-get install nvidia-settings | 00:05 |
| duffydack | alt+sysrq+k ? | 00:05 |
| duffydack | to restart gdm.. | 00:05 |
| octolog | how do I change default save fornat for abiword? | 00:05 |
| kwtm2 | david_brent: GOod idea! I'll do that with KDM (which is what I'm using) but isn't there just a different key combo that they replaced Cltr-Alt-Bkspace with? It's Ctrl-Alt-F29 or something like that. | 00:05 |
| z3ro3x | kwtm2, I didn't see your previous messages. I didn't see the blank screen comment. In that case you can hit Ctrl + Alt + F1 to get you to the shell. | 00:06 |
| Polemus | Coppermine: thanx... will shout if i struggle :) | 00:06 |
| krabador | when i shutdown/restart Lucid, i've some hard audio cracks, to the speaker, all pulseaudio volumes are less than 50%, how can i solve it? | 00:06 |
| david_brent | kwtm2: oh then restart kdm | 00:06 |
| z3r0-c001 | Can I boot from disk on a mac to install Linux | 00:06 |
| Coppermine | Polemus: good luck, but u have nvidia so it should all work out fine | 00:06 |
| Monotoko | z3r0-c001, yeah i believe so | 00:06 |
| z3r0-c001 | How | 00:07 |
| z3ro3x | kwtm2, Log on your account name then type sudo killall Xorg | 00:07 |
| Polemus | Coppermine: after that... i am gonna sit trying to get my 3rd monitor to work... :) | 00:07 |

| kwtm2 | thank goodness for vim. Hey, Jon-, you use vim? Or any other compact text-interface-based editor? (Just curious.) Hey, remember me from when you were asking some question and some guy said, "Why use that? Use this instead!" You're from Winnipeg, right? | 00:10 |

| jpt9 | Hey. I'm having an odd problem with eSpeak on Ubuntu 9.10. Whenever I have it read something using the command line espeak program, or set Orca to use GNOME Speech Services, it talks extremely fast/distorted, and isn't at all understandable. However, if I switch Orca to Speech Dispatcher (the default) it works fine. Any idea what's going on? Generating wave files from espeak via the command line works fine. I don't really care about Orca, but I'd like t | 00:19 |
| _micah | FinboySlick: odd. Could you do me a favor and: cat /etc/apt/sources.list | 00:19 |

| Polemus | Coppermine: what was that app you suggested i try | 00:35 |
| blackratdog | how can you play an mms stream in firefox? | 00:35 |
| kinks | og01: no idea if it pertains to your particular issue, but there was something about mysql in the release notes for lucid. | 00:35 |

| holmser_ | sooooo pissed right now. I need to do a kernel update get my audio working, but I'm on a roadtrip right now | 00:42 |
| ZykoticK9 | Savage308, that's basically working as designed - games take over control of the keyboard usually, can you minimize the game in question during play? | 00:42 |
| Faaku | onetinsoldier: i will restart my computer and try to get it working, thanks for the help tho | 00:42 |
| MikeChelen | Coppermine: what model card? | 00:43 |

| niko-mojo | Hi room - when I boot my machine sometimes the Ubuntu splash screen goes really blurry. Think its resolution related. Not sure though. Only recently installed Karmic as a dual boot . Thoughts ? | 00:43 |
| MikeChelen | Narya: it should appear there automatically, sometimes logout and login will help refresh it | 00:43 |
| Savage308 | ZykotiK9: Well... Not exactly. theres no minimize button and I'm not gonna run it in windowed mode. | 00:44 |
| MikeChelen | Coppermine: try system -> admin -> hardware drivers? dunno that card | 00:44 |
| Coppermine | MikeChelen: MikeChelen dxr3.sourceforge.net/ was the linux drivers | 00:44 |
| foxmulder881 | niko-mojo: have you installed video card drivers correctly? | 00:44 |
| Coppermine | MikeChelen: its a card for pci | 00:44 |

| niko-mojo | foxmulder881 - how can I tell ? | 00:45 |

| ubottu | Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines . Enjoy your stay! | 00:46 |
| dpratt71 | ok, I'm back (the guy who was having trouble with wireless on a new install of 10.4) | 00:46 |
| justin22885 | now it would be REALLY cool if i could replace my gnome panel with a docky panel, with the taskbar and all that | 00:46 |
| niko-mojo | foxmulder881 prompt:~$ lspci |grep VGA | 00:47 |
| niko-mojo | 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Device 68b8 | 00:47 |
| niko-mojo | prompt:~$ | 00:47 |
| dpratt71 | is there any reasonable troubleshooting or configuration I can try while I don't have a network connection at all under Ubuntu? | 00:47 |
| onetinsoldier | Narya: you can use 'dpkg'. for example.... dpkg -l <package_name> | grep bin | 00:47 |
| Coppermine | MikeChelen: and i already tried checking for closed source drivers but none, and yesterday i tried compiling dxr3 and kernel headers and lm sensors but got some errors with the dxr3 modules make | 00:47 |
| === jexmex_ is now known as jexmex | ||
| justin22885 | oh no!, i found a problem with docky that makes it kind of bad now.. i can have it all 3D if its on the top or side | 00:47 |
| RambJoe | how can i make it so windows resize normally instead of having to wait till i let go of the mouse for it to resize? | 00:47 |
| onetinsoldier | Narya: oops... that should be dpkg -L | 00:47 |
| krazykrivda | (1st time on ubuntu) i'm dual booting... and trying to set up a shared partition for media.. is there a specific partition type? | 00:47 |
| MikeChelen | Coppermine: try searching ubuntuforums.org for the video card name? | 00:48 |
| foxmulder881 | niko-mojo: so try installing the radeon drivers. That should fix your resolution issues. Hopefully. ;-) | 00:48 |
| pfifo | ok this is really messed up, i have an audio cd in my cdrom drive but cannot access it through /dev/cdrom, Ive always used /dev/cdrom for as long as i can remember. but seeing as this is an audio CD it appears to be a different situation. what is happening? | 00:48 |
| MikeChelen | Narya: try the command "which" from terminal, like "which firefox" | 00:48 |

| Narya | Mike: that didn't return anything | 00:48 |
| niko-mojo | foxmulder881 - the radeon drivers for ubuntu you mean (sounds like a stupid question) . Are they easy to find ? | 00:49 |
| Narya | onetinsoldier: that worked wonderfully thank you | 00:49 |
| onetinsoldier | Narya: you can use 'dpkg'. for example.... dpkg -L <package_name> | grep bin | 00:49 |
| MikeChelen | Narya: it is supposed to | 00:49 |
| dpratt71 | can someone explain the differences between the two driver choices I am given for my wireless card (Broadcom)? | 00:49 |
| Coppermine | MikeChelen: did that too, aswell as google for a good hour :p | 00:49 |
| onetinsoldier | Narya: you're welcome.. cheers :-) | 00:49 |
| dpratt71 | is one more reliable than the other? | 00:49 |
| pfifo | please help, this has been a major headache for me over the last 6 months | 00:49 |
| foxmulder881 | niko-mojo: Check Google. Keywords "Ubuntu 9.10 radeon drivers install". | 00:50 |
| justin22885 | so, does anyone know of a good program on ubuntu that uses the desklet/applets? | 00:50 |
| Narya | MikeChelen, let me try again hold on | 00:50 |
| krazykrivda | i'm dual booting... and trying to set up a shared partition for media.. is there a specific partition type? | 00:50 |
| niko-mojo | thx foxmulder881 - the truth is out there :-) | 00:50 |
| foxmulder881 | niko-mojo: if I had exact linky, I'd post it. Sorry, but I don't. | 00:51 |
| MikeChelen | Coppermine: it looks like that driver is the best bet, the install process looks difficult though | 00:51 |
| pfifo | how can i copy an audio cd from the command line? | 00:51 |
| krazykrivda | what is NTFS partition vs an exFAT partition? | 00:51 |
| foxmulder881 | pfifo: you mean copy it or rip it? | 00:52 |
| Coppermine | MikeChelen: and really outdated so what do i do with my questions about compiler errors haha, bet i'd better go win 98 with the drivers they offer | 00:52 |
| pfifo | OR how can i copy an audio cd with only a single mouse click? my mom is an areobics instructor and cannot handle copying her cds with linux if it requires more than 2 clicks of the mouse | 00:52 |
| RambJoe | how can i make windows resize in like real time instead of seeing that rectangle please? | 00:52 |
| MikeChelen | Coppermine: ubuntu should be able to run without special drivers, only 3d won't work | 00:52 |
| foxmulder881 | pfifo: if it's not copy-protected, just use Brasero. | 00:52 |
| foxmulder881 | pfifo: or wodim. | 00:53 |
| duffydack | pfifo, thats all it is.. right click, copy | 00:53 |
| pfifo | basero is way way WAY~!~ too complex for my mom's 30 iq points | 00:53 |
| duffydack | pfifo, if its too much to right click make iso, right click iso, burn.. then good luck in windows. | 00:53 |
| justin22885 | how do i configure compiz on gnome? it says its installed by default | 00:54 |
| Coppermine | MikeChelen: im not using 3d im on a pentium 3.... i just want my pci videocard working,l even if it is my pci vga instead of my onboard vga that would give some spark of hope | 00:54 |
| onetinsoldier | pfifo: how about gnomebaker | 00:54 |
| MikeChelen | pfifo: an audio program like rhythmbox might be more comfortable | 00:54 |
| duffydack | !ccsm > justin22885 | 00:54 |
| ubottu | justin22885, please see my private message | 00:54 |
| ZykoticK9 | justin22885, if you want all compiz setting install ccsm, as duffydack just sent you ;) | 00:54 |
| justin22885 | aaah, ok then | 00:54 |
| pfifo | what i want todo is `dd if=/dev/cdrw of=/home/pfifo/out.iso` | 00:54 |
| MikeChelen | Coppermine: what happens if you try booting live cd? | 00:54 |
| pfifo | as in a shell script | 00:54 |
| pfifo | GUI != shell script | 00:55 |
| justin22885 | i want my panels to be transparent, top of the windows, etc | 00:55 |
| ZykoticK9 | pfifo, you want create an ISO of an audio CD - you could make an image with a bin/cue but NOT iso | 00:55 |
| tertitten | can anyone help out with grub2 and adding another linux installation to grub ? http://pastebin.com/AzuSvc2Y | 00:55 |
| MikeChelen | pfifo: why does your mom only want a shell script? | 00:55 |
| Coppermine | MikeChelen: works fine, and shows it on my onboard vga out not on my pci vga out | 00:55 |
| yoyoned | pfifo: if you are witing a script, there are CLI cd ripping tools. one I remember is abcde | 00:55 |
| pfifo | the ricght click and copy dosent work cause it tries to dump 700MB of data into /tmp which only has 40mb available | 00:56 |

| D3RGPS31 | where's the option to login to a remote machine at the login prompt? | 00:57 |
| MikeChelen | Coppermine: yup hopefully, the bios may also have a setting to pick between them | 00:58 |
| h00k | Jon-: memoserv | 00:58 |
| MikeChelen | pfifo: maybe she would be more comfortable with a simpler burning program than brasero? | 00:58 |
| ZykoticK9 | D3RGPS31, i believe it was removed | 00:58 |
| foxmulder881 | So what's hogging your /tmp if you have 4gb allocated and it's complaining there's only 40MB free? What's the rest of the crap in there? | 00:58 |
| Coppermine | i checked there is not, and im not thinking about disable onboard cus it will make me reset cmos again :p | 00:58 |
| onetinsoldier | short: have you tried purging MySQL from your system with the package manager. then say, doing an 'updatedb' and then using 'locate' to try and find if there's still leftover myswl stuff on your system that needs to be deleted, and then finally reinstalling mysql? | 00:58 |
| D3RGPS31 | ZykoticK9: :c | 00:58 |

| kpear78 | on same hard drive | 01:43 |
| luciano_ | i am having trouble updating to 10.04 from 9.10 | 01:43 |
| linxeh | skunkworks_: I did the same; you need to reinstall | 01:43 |
| linxeh | skunkworks_: how much ram do you have ? | 01:43 |
| skunkworks_ | aww ;) | 01:43 |
| skunkworks_ | 4gb | 01:43 |
| skunkworks_ | not enough? | 01:44 |
| Raptors | Does anyone know where I can get the Fun and FunDB plugin for supybot? | 01:44 |
| skunkworks_ | I am idling here using 268mb - If I boot into windows7 - 1.something gig ;) | 01:44 |
| linxeh | its hardly worth bothering with then :) though if you have a fast connection and havent installed much software then it might be worth it I guess | 01:44 |
| abstrakt | G8orDroid_VM, yup, np | 01:44 |
| acerimmer | kpear78: http://www.hackourlives.com/?p=1948 | 01:44 |
| luciano_ | the installer is saying that it has marked ubuntu-desktop to remove, but it is on the black list | 01:44 |
| Wage | is there a command i can type to test notification bubbles? | 01:44 |
| ezrafreee | I have no working keyboard and am trying to fix it. Running an MX1000 logitech. Will running ldconfig update my drivers? | 01:44 |
| acerimmer | !ask|luciano | 01:44 |
| ubottu | luciano: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 01:44 |
| luciano_ | and it refuses itself to upgrade | 01:44 |
| roberto_ | mgolisch: when I went to the page by ip address, I got a different error "the connection has closed" -- and I didn't see the connection attemt in the STDERR for the gem server command .. | 01:45 |
| Raptors | Does anyone know where I can get the Fun and FunDB plugin for supybot? | 01:45 |
| Jammet | How can I get the libnotify messages to look like standard notify-osd again? | 01:45 |
| roberto_ | mgolisch: jeez, that's two problems .. why can't I telnet to localhost ? | 01:45 |
| ezrafreee | Hello? | 01:45 |
| acerimmer | luciano_: that's weird. "blacklist" means the software source list has been changed. You have the 10.04 cd?? | 01:46 |
| kpear78 | whats lucid lynx | 01:46 |
| abstrakt | kpear78, code name | 01:46 |
| mgolisch | roberto_: strange | 01:46 |
| acerimmer | kpear78: lucid lynx = ubuntu 10.04 | 01:46 |
| short | ** PLEASE HELP ** I'm getting the following while trying to install mysql: DbDriver "config": /var/cache/debconf/config.dat is locked by another process: Resource temporarily unavailable | 01:46 |
| luciano_ | ok? I am trying to upgrade from karmic to linx, but the installer refuses to do it because it said that will have to delete ubuntu-desktop, that is in the black list to remove | 01:46 |
| acerimmer | luciano_: you have the *iso cdrom?? | 01:46 |
| ezrafreee | Wow I really wish I had another keyboard so this wouldn't suck quite so much. Any ideas guys? | 01:47 |
| Radio-b | short: dump ps -A into a pastebin | 01:47 |
| luciano_ | i am in a netbook, i dont have cdrom. I installed the netbook remux, baack then | 01:47 |
| chet | oh and, i cant adjust my laptop brightness with the nvidia driver installed, it works fine with nouveau. is that just nvidia being nvidia or something i can fix? | 01:47 |
| Jammet | I know it's by no means a real problem, but if anybody here knows how to start the notify-osd (standard Ubuntu) version of notify toaster plugins, please tell me. I've got plain gnome/xfce toaster plugins after a reboot. That shouldn't happen. | 01:48 |
| acerimmer | luciano_: OK: go the the ubuntu site, download the new iso, place on usb and install | 01:48 |
| melanie | windows=shit long life to ubuntu!!! | 01:48 |

| acerimmer | luciano_: OR try this. Still not certain about your software source "blacklist". Create a new user, make new user admin, i.e. "sudo", login as newuser and run update | 01:51 |
| mgolisch | roberto_: does ifconfig -a show lo? | 01:51 |

| abstrakt | acerimmer, i installed ubuntustudio-desktop | 01:52 |
| Wage | Jammet: this version of ubuntu and last, notifications didn't work for pidgin. I even tried a clean install. any ideas? | 01:52 |
| acerimmer | abstrakt: whatchu think. | 01:53 |
| abstrakt | acerimmer, and it installed headers for the realtime kernel | 01:53 |
| zee | ezrafree: wats ur problem | 01:53 |
| acerimmer | abstrakt: powerfu, no? | 01:53 |
| abstrakt | acerimmer, and rebuilt the ramfs | 01:53 |
| roberto_ | mgolisch: hey, that's like magic ! | 01:53 |
| abstrakt | acerimmer, but it didn't say anything about rebooting | 01:53 |
| abstrakt | i would assume it wants me to reboot no? | 01:53 |
| mgolisch | roberto_: now check your /etc/network/interfaces | 01:53 |
| abstrakt | wouldn't i need to reboot to use the realtime kernel? | 01:53 |
| acerimmer | abstrakt: uoui only neeed the rt kernel for cuttting edge audiio editing | 01:53 |
| mgolisch | roberto_: there must be something wrong if it doenst bring up the loopback automaticaly | 01:53 |

| roberto_ | mgolisch: it's two lines | 01:54 |
| Jammet | Wage: They worked for me. All I can suggest is to reinstall the notification daemon and use the plugin in Pidgin that gives you more notify options. | 01:54 |
| luciano_ | well, i understood, but i didnt get the difference doing upgrade with my user and with another user | 01:54 |
| roberto_ | mgolisch: auto lo | 01:54 |
| roberto_ | mgolisch: and iface lo inet loopback | 01:54 |
| zee | does anyone know how to enable 2 finger scrolling on dell mini 10v? | 01:54 |
| crdlb | Wage: last I checked notify-osd's package is supposed to dpkg-divert the one in notification-daemon | 01:54 |
| abstrakt | acerimmer, and sorry, i can't really say what i think about it yet cuz i haven't actually seen anything about it in action yet :) | 01:54 |
| abstrakt | acerimmer, i do hope it is powerful | 01:54 |
| luciano_ | the problem isnt with the black list, that is configured globally? | 01:54 |
| mgolisch | roberto_: strange i wonder why it didnt bring it up then that should be ok | 01:54 |
| abstrakt | k, going to try a reboot | 01:54 |

| abstrakt | bbl | 01:55 |
| Wage | Jammet: tried reinstalling. is there a command i can use to test the notifications. | 01:55 |
| luciano_ | I tried to saw a black list in /etc/apt but didnt found nothing there | 01:55 |
| acerimmer | luciano_: hoping my suggestion would be workaround global blacklist | 01:55 |
| roberto_ | mgolisch: you know, it might be because we were diagnosing dnsmasq earlier today and at one point I had to ifdown and ifup | 01:55 |
| mgolisch | roberto_: oh i see | 01:55 |
| roberto_ | mgolisch: I fumbled through the ifdown part myself | 01:55 |
| mgolisch | roberto_: maybe thats why then | 01:55 |
| crdlb | Wage: you need to restart your session, since the old process would still be running even if you fixed it | 01:55 |
| crdlb | Wage: either that or kill the nofication-daemon process | 01:55 |
| mgolisch | roberto_: now localhost should work again hopefully | 01:55 |
| ezrafreee | Anyone who can tell me how to update my logitech mx5000 drivers? | 01:55 |
| Jammet | Wage: Yes, use notify-send to send any text to that thing. | 01:55 |
| acerimmer | abstrakt: chekc out the "digital media" book. It's got links to some "created by ubuntu" media | 01:56 |
| luciano_ | acerimer: this black list isnt something set by apt, itself? I should read more about it, but didnt do it yet | 01:56 |
| roberto_ | mgolisch: yea it does :) thank you. | 01:56 |
| mattucf | apparently from a quick google search I guess you have to somehow identify a correct driver for your hardware? I am very unsure where to start but very willing to try and have moderate to advanced windows knowledge | 01:56 |
| short | Radio-b: can I change the permission on that file to 777 to unlock it? | 01:56 |
| Jammet | If I find some kind of package related bug in current Ubuntu, to whom do I mail this information? Or tell'em right here? | 01:56 |

| ezrafreee | Mattucf: I know, right... | 02:00 |
| Wage | crdlb: i tried that, but nothing happened. thought i needed to restart the daemon | 02:00 |
| crdlb | Wage: dbus should start it for you; that's what the service file is for | 02:00 |
| Jammet | greezmunkey: Yeah, it can be pretty much used with anything. | 02:00 |

| coolbtk | I am fairly new to Ubuntu and have a problem that I don't even know where to start troubleshooting. | 02:15 |
| zeleftikam | what's the problem? | 02:16 |
| acerimmer | !ask|coolbtk | 02:16 |
| ubottu | coolbtk: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 02:16 |
| ratcheer | coolbtk: Tell more. | 02:16 |
| fayskittles | ok i will try that. thanks. is there a way for me to look up and see if the drivers are there? | 02:16 |
| Wage | crdlb: did that, its running a debug mode in that terminal. anytime i try to send something in another terminal using "notify-send" in the first one it says "DEBUG: Screensaver has been inhibited" | 02:16 |
| mgolisch | short: odd,tried sudo dpkg --purge on the packagename? | 02:16 |

| ivan_ | #join ubuntu-mx | 02:17 |
| Wage | crdlb: i think caffiene may be conflicting with it | 02:17 |
| acerimmer | nawabz: error messages? | 02:17 |
| nawabz | no | 02:17 |
| abstrakt | nawabz, try catching it while it's booting and select a different kernel | 02:17 |
| acerimmer | nawabz: what's displayed, what are your machine specs | 02:17 |
| abstrakt | nawabz, you might have gotten a kernel update | 02:17 |
| nawabz | its a low spec machine | 02:17 |
| asw3 | what is the solution for "low graphic mode" its begin when i was started the pc ubuntu 9.10 | 02:17 |
| ivan_ | #join ubuntu-mx | 02:18 |
| nawabz | it fails just before anything loads | 02:18 |
| coolbtk | I installed 9.10 Netbook remix on my Acer Aspire One D150 a few months ago. Everything worked great. I upgraded to 10.04 LTS this morning and suddenly my sound doesn't work anymore. I have already checked my pulse audio settings, and the output device is there, not muted, and volume is up. | 02:18 |
| asw3 | i dont have graphic card its on bord card | 02:18 |
| asw3 | its driver problem? | 02:18 |
| ivan_ | ubuntu en español | 02:18 |
| ivan_ | ? | 02:18 |
| xiambax | lol | 02:18 |
| acerimmer | !es|ivan | 02:18 |
| ubottu | ivan: En la mayoría de canales de Ubuntu se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español o charlar entra en el canal #ubuntu-es. Escribe "/join #ubuntu-es" (sin comillas) y dale a enter. | 02:18 |
| xiambax | spekie no englash | 02:18 |
| ratcheer | coolbtk: Try running alsamixer and checking the settings, there. | 02:18 |
| nawabz | basically i had karmic koala but yesterday i clicked on upgrade | 02:18 |
| crdlb | Wage: ah, that makes sense | 02:18 |
| nawabz | it froze | 02:19 |
| nawabz | i restarted thinking it will continue when it loads | 02:19 |
| yfk | can I manage which applications run on which of my CPU cores? | 02:19 |
| Marko38 | ivan type /join #ubuntu-mx | 02:19 |
| nawabz | but it wont even let me load liveCD | 02:19 |
| coolbtk | I have tried playing audio through several different programs, including audacious, which i have tried both the pulseaudio and alsa plugins | 02:19 |
| asw3 | someone know what is "low graphic mode"? | 02:19 |
| acerimmer | nawabz: u can't boot live CD?? u changed bios? | 02:20 |
| coolbtk | in alsamixer, all volumes are at max and none are muted | 02:20 |
| asw3 | why its happen? | 02:20 |
| nawabz | no | 02:20 |

| xiambax | omg omg omg, not my personalz settinz | 02:21 |
| mgolisch | ezrafree: no it doesnt | 02:21 |
| acerimmer | ezrafree: depends on where your /home is. If /home is on dedicatd partition no changes | 02:21 |
| asw3 | how can i find the driver for the graphic card? | 02:21 |
| Wage | crdlb: yeah, turning it off seems to have fixed everything. thanks for the help :) | 02:21 |
| asw3 | its graphic card on bord | 02:22 |
| ezrafree | my /home is not on a dedicated, no | 02:22 |
| mgolisch | the upgrade should not touch your $HOME | 02:22 |

| nawabz | cool no problem | 02:31 |
| acerimmer | Necrosporus: "hibernate" | 02:31 |
| Necrosporus | acerimmer, because it would contain suspended image of RAM of my current OS | 02:31 |

| amagee | hey i just bought a couple of 1920x1080 monitors, but both the gnome display configurator thingy and the ati catalyst control panel only let me choose resolutions up to 1680x1050.. any idea how to force it to recognise 1920x1080? | 02:33 |
| j800r | my Ubuntu 10.04 screencast is up on YouTube for anyone interested. Channel is the same as my nick in here | 02:33 |
| abstrakt | acerimmer, well, the sound settings in the Ubuntu menu didn't change anything | 02:33 |
| frmdstryr | does anyone know how to join the python irc | 02:33 |

| dominicdinada | j800r: really showing people how to install ubuntu and stuff | 02:34 |
| acerimmer | abstrakt: wait 1 | 02:34 |
| j800r | dominicdinada, sorry...no :\ only a review/brief overview | 02:34 |
| frmdstryr | amagee does it work in 1920 x1080 with only one screen? | 02:34 |
| amagee | umm let me try | 02:34 |
| Narya | could anyone reccommend a cd ripper? bestbot seems to be retarded in that regard | 02:34 |
| kubuntero | frmdstryr: try /join #python | 02:34 |

| goose | How do I launch "Rouge" in a terminal? (From the bsdgames-nonfree package) | 02:35 |
| coolstuff | so | 02:35 |
| markus_ | Pelo: Its not there. Can't find a notifing zone icon either. maybe it disappeared in the new version? | 02:35 |
| Narya | goose: are you sure you are not trying to launch Rogue? | 02:35 |
| goose | Narya: I'm trying to launch the "Rouge" game which I installed via the bsdgames-nonfree package | 02:36 |
| j800r | goose, a good tip for finding a launch command. add the program to panel, right-click it, select properties, and look where it says command | 02:36 |
| j800r | then type that command into terminal | 02:36 |
| * Narya nods | 02:36 | |
| goose | j800r: it's not in the panel. | 02:36 |
| j800r | ahh | 02:36 |
| goose | and neither "rouge" nor "bsdgames-nonfree" launches it. | 02:36 |
| j800r | it don't have a frontend | 02:37 |
| goose | nor does aptitude give me any hints as to what its launch command it. | 02:37 |
| coolstuff | I'm gonna dual boot Ubuntu 10.04 on my mac, but I'm sorta confused and haven't found a good guide on how to install the latest version of it | 02:37 |
| goose | aptitude search bsdgames-nonfree, for a description | 02:37 |
| frmdstryr | mac or ubuntu? | 02:37 |
| Pelo | markus_, the notification zone icon is there, i'Musing the new 10.04, should be somewhere toward the bottom of the list, it might just be nogify or somethign similar, I'm not sure of the english name I'm using a french version , "zone de notification" translates roughly as notification zone, you might want to try restarting, you might just have hidden it somehow, | 02:37 |
| frmdstryr | installing ubuntu is pretty easy | 02:37 |
| acerimmer | abstrakt: Check your Sound Preferences>Hardware. Might neeed to tweak around the Hardware/Output | 02:37 |
| coolstuff | well I just ordered a LiveCD | 02:38 |
| abstrakt | acerimmer, i checked the sound preferences | 02:38 |
| amagee | whoever it was that asked me if it works on 1920x1080 with one monitor (sorry i've forgotten who): no, it still doesn't work | 02:38 |
| coolstuff | of 10.04 | 02:38 |
| j800r | frmdstryr, installing Ubuntu is easier than Windows | 02:38 |
| abstrakt | acerimmer, i want to listen to the output from my headphone jack on my computer | 02:38 |
| zeleftikam | amen | 02:38 |
| j800r | and that's saying something | 02:38 |
| coolstuff | but | 02:38 |
| acerimmer | abstrakt: Output Muted??? | 02:38 |
| frmdstryr | agreed haha | 02:38 |
| coolstuff | kinda confused on how to | 02:38 |
| abstrakt | acerimmer, no, i can turn on an mp3 | 02:38 |
| abstrakt | acerimmer, audacity just doesn't actually record | 02:38 |
| abstrakt | i get "latency correction" error | 02:38 |
| j800r | installing Slackware however....ouch.. | 02:38 |
| j800r | anyway. bed for me | 02:39 |
| coolstuff | I need to create a partition on BootCamp, but not too sure about the rest | 02:39 |
| acerimmer | abstrakt: check your sound setttings. is Output muted? And try rythmbox for playback | 02:39 |
| woodyjlw | hi I got WOW working under wine ok now but cant get a working shortcut to desktop. I copied the wow folder from windows. anyone know how to make the wow.exe into a working shortcut on desktop | 02:39 |
| kubuntero | hi thechef | 02:39 |
| frmdstryr | coolstuff: did you try youtube? | 02:39 |
| acerimmer | abstrakt: latency error - are your running the RT kernel?? | 02:39 |
| Marko38 | woot that got it thanks, got scarey when about 200 windows tried to open, but my desktop works again :) | 02:40 |
| kubuntero | can I use the live CD to view a Software RAID set of disks ? | 02:40 |
| coolstuff | yeah, there was only stuff for VMware and no 10.04 guides | 02:40 |
| abstrakt | acerimmer, i don't know | 02:40 |
| abstrakt | acerimmer, i asked how to find that out like twice | 02:40 |
| abstrakt | acerimmer, earlier | 02:40 |
| abstrakt | no one responded | 02:40 |
| frmdstryr | woodyjw: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=146225 | 02:40 |
| markus_ | whats the command to start the network monitor icon? Guess its the same as with the volume icon. There is a command but you can't select it in the menu | 02:40 |
| acerimmer | abstrakt: oK let's walk thru. reboot and DON'T use the RT kernel | 02:40 |
| kubuntero | hi wers | 02:41 |
| histo | abstrakt: alsamixer you can see if outputs and inputs are muted. and in system > peferences > sound you can control which output you are using under the hardware tab | 02:41 |
| abstrakt | acerimmer, well i already rebooted, i didn't pay attention though to whether i had yet another new kernel | 02:41 |
| abstrakt | histo, yeah i want to be using my default laptop headphone jack for output | 02:41 |
| abstrakt | for now | 02:41 |
| abstrakt | but the USB interface for input | 02:41 |
| abstrakt | eventually i'll do it all through the USB so i can zero latency monitoring | 02:42 |
| wers | hello kubuntero aga a | 02:42 |
| abstrakt | but for now, i don't have a headphone jack adapter :/ | 02:42 |
| abstrakt | so i have to use my laptop jack | 02:42 |
| acerimmer | abstrakt: reboot/come back/no rt kernel. i'll be here | 02:42 |
| abstrakt | hmm | 02:43 |
| abstrakt | alsamixer doesn't show my USB device | 02:43 |
| abstrakt | acerimmer, ok i'll do that hold on | 02:43 |
| coolstuff | so yeah, I don't wanna screw anything up and wipe out my harddrive | 02:43 |
| wers | gwibber on lucid doesn't load my stream. any idea why? | 02:44 |

| histo | abstrakt: what is the usb device a mic or something? | 02:44 |
| abstrakt | histo, M-Audio Fast Track | 02:45 |
| coolstuff | yeah I'll def. backup first | 02:45 |

| abstrakt | histo, it's just basically a "musicians" input box | 02:46 |
| acerimmer | OK, you have the ubuntu mactel install page there? | 02:46 |
| abstrakt | it has balanced inputs for studio microphones and guitar jacks and stuff | 02:46 |

| coolbtk | Trying again in case someone has any ideas... I just did a network upgrade from 9.10 Netbook Remix to 10.04 LTS on my Acer Aspire One D150. The sound settings all look the same as before in both pulseaudio and alsamixer. Sound worked before, now it doesn't. | 02:50 |
| Necrosporus | Try ubuntu without installing... install ubuntu without trying | 02:50 |
| Necrosporus | coolbtk, try to run alsaconf | 02:51 |
| Necrosporus | sudo alsaconf | 02:51 |
| coolstuff | so I'll want to get rEFIt... | 02:51 |
| Necrosporus | It makes sound work | 02:51 |
| spacebison | So I have a laptop and desktop running 9.10 that were updating when the screens both went blank and now the desktop won't boot up at all and the laptop will only run in terminal mode. Any idea what's going on? | 02:51 |
| acerimmer | coolstuff: honestly, i've never installed on a mac. | 02:52 |
| zetheroo | I heard that EXT2 was faster than EXT3 and 4 ... | 02:52 |
| coolbtk | Necrosporus: sudo: alsaconf: command not found | 02:52 |
| coolstuff | yeah, I'm reading this guide, maybe I'll get a clearer idea | 02:52 |
| sebsebseb | zetheroo: I don't think so | 02:52 |
| woodyjlw | can anyone tell me how to make my wow on my desktop? it is in my home folder | 02:52 |
| sebsebseb | zetheroo: Even Google have or will soon be going from Ext2 to Ext4 | 02:52 |
| frmdstryr | is the #python room down? | 02:52 |
| abstrakt | acerimmer, ok rebooted | 02:52 |

| acerimmer | acerimmer: hey | 02:53 |
| Necrosporus | coolbtk, apt-get install alsaconf ? | 02:53 |
| thisguykills | hi can someone help me with my built in speakers? | 02:53 |
| Necrosporus | * sudo | 02:53 |

| zetheroo | sebsebseb: but Ext4 is so slow ... | 02:53 |
| frmdstryr | thisguykills: whats wrong? | 02:53 |
| Faust | Hi | 02:53 |
| Faust | secret | 02:53 |
| wildbat | zetheroo, in my case i feel it is faster ~ | 02:53 |
| greezmunkey | Hey! Chack this: http://imagebin.org/96060 | 02:54 |
| zetheroo | sebsebseb: especially with anything to do with dpkg ... | 02:54 |
| thisguykills | frmdstryr the mic isnt working | 02:54 |
| sebsebseb | zetheroo: I don't think Ubuntu has all the features of Ext4 enabled by default, yes if I remember correctly this is correct | 02:54 |
| UbuntuJeff | Necrosporus, in newer versions of Ubuntu, alsa conf isn't installed with alsa utils anymore just so you know. | 02:54 |
| zetheroo | wildbat: faster than what? | 02:54 |
| sebsebseb | zetheroo: some of those features could help speed it up for you | 02:54 |
| wildbat | zetheroo, then ext3 ~ never actually used ext2 thou | 02:54 |
| Necrosporus | UbuntuJeff, alsaconf always makes my sound work | 02:54 |
| Necrosporus | On slackware | 02:55 |
| zetheroo | sebsebseb: how are these features enabled/disabled? | 02:55 |
| sebsebseb | zetheroo: I don't know enough about it to answer that | 02:55 |
| frmdstryr | thisguykills: open sound preferences, click on the input tab, does a device show up? | 02:55 |
| UbuntuJeff | Necrosporus, maybe on slackware yes, but its hard to get it back on Ubuntu, I spent 3 hours the other day trying to find how to get a alsa conf and its not a simple sudo apt-get install anymore | 02:55 |
| zetheroo | wildbat: the downside with ext2 is no journaling ... but I turn it off with Ext3 and 4 anyhow ... | 02:55 |
| sebsebseb | zetheroo: however XFS is also meant to be a pretty fast file system | 02:55 |
| woodyjlw | trying to make a desktop shortcut of my wow.exe from my world of warcraft folder whitch is in my home folder. can anyone help ? | 02:55 |
| thisguykills | yeah it shows up | 02:55 |
| zetheroo | sebsebseb: true | 02:56 |
| coolstuff | yeah, okay I got a good idea how to install now, thanks acerimmer | 02:56 |
| thisguykills | oh never mind | 02:56 |

| === caplink811-log is now known as caplink811_log | ||
| wildbat | zetheroo, lol why don't you just use ext2 then ? | 02:56 |
| frmdstryr | woodyjlw your home folder is /home/your_username/ | 02:56 |
| acerimmer | coolstuff: good luck man. enjoy your box | 02:56 |
| Necrosporus | UbuntuJeff, it is why I use slackware: much easier to figure out, how to do things... | 02:56 |
| frmdstryr | desktop is /home/your_username/Desktop | 02:56 |
| coolstuff | thanks man. Gonna go now, adios | 02:56 |
| zetheroo | sebsebseb: do you know anything about compiling your own kernel to suit your CPU? | 02:56 |
| UbuntuJeff | Necrosporus, some people would disagree, everyone has an opinion, like my myself. I can't stand Slackware lol | 02:56 |
| mophead | is there a known sound problem with 10.04? | 02:56 |
| frmdstryr | mophead: with microphones? | 02:57 |
| sebsebseb | zetheroo: normally there isn't a reason to compile your own kernel | 02:57 |
| Necrosporus | UbuntuJeff, isn't Slackware more user-friendly then ubuntu? | 02:57 |
| zetheroo | wildbat: yeah ... I dunno ... I did have my /boot partitioned in ext2 and that improved things a bit | 02:57 |
| sebsebseb | zetheroo: a proper reason | 02:57 |
| powertool08 | ln -s /path/to/exe /path/to/desktop/shortcut (I may have the paths backwards) | 02:57 |
| bazhang | Necrosporus, UbuntuJeff please take chat to #ubuntu-offtopic | 02:57 |
| mophead | frmdstryr : no, I can't play sound on youtube and such but other sound files (e.g. .avi files) work fi ne | 02:57 |
| frmdstryr | 32 or 64 bit | 02:58 |
| UbuntuJeff | mophead, that sounds like a problem with your flash not a Ubuntu 10.04 issue | 02:58 |
| siimo | oh crap IBex EOL'd? | 02:58 |
| coolbtk | ok... another problem in the way of that. I was installing a package using the Synaptic Package Manager and it hung. Showing the terminal window, the last line is "Starting Pioneers meta-server...done." but it's only 75% done with all processes. CTRL+C doesn't work. any way to stop this other than a reboot? | 02:58 |
| sebsebseb | zetheroo: if you use your own kernel in Ubuntu, then you can't really get support for problems, in here, as far as I know | 02:58 |
| mophead | It was fine until I updated ubuntu | 02:58 |
| zetheroo | sebsebseb: performance? as I understand it the generic kernel is compiled against an Intel Pentium Pro CPU ... not an Intel C2D ... and this would compromise performance | 02:58 |
| xcl | hi | 02:58 |
| UbuntuJeff | mophead, 64 bit or 32? | 02:58 |
| xcl | mine is 32 | 02:58 |
| frmdstryr | flash support is pretty bad in 64 bit | 02:58 |
| siimo | zetheroo: yeah compromise performance by 0.0001% its negligible | 02:58 |
| UbuntuJeff | frmdstryr, I would siagree I am running 64 bit and have no problem at all with flash | 02:59 |
| UbuntuJeff | *disagree | 02:59 |
| zetheroo | siimo: you sure its that little? | 02:59 |
| Coppermine | mophead: u can always download chrome which has flash packet altogether try if that works? | 02:59 |
| Necrosporus | I booted up Ubuntu latest in my virtual QEMU machine, but can see only black screen | 02:59 |
| sebsebseb | zetheroo: I have a link for you | 02:59 |
| sebsebseb | zetheroo: if you want to know how to do it, compile your own kernel | 02:59 |
| xcl | can you help me? | 02:59 |
| spacebison | So I have a laptop and desktop running 9.10 that were updating when the screens both went blank and now the desktop won't boot up at all and the laptop will only run in terminal mode. Any idea what's going on? | 02:59 |

| frmdstryr | well for me anyways, it will gray out and often stop when loading different pages | 03:00 |
| zetheroo | sebsebseb: not to mention all the zillions of drivers etc that are in the kernel which you don't actually need ... I understand that you can bring it down to a quarter of the size ... | 03:00 |

| sebsebseb | zetheroo: yes that's right | 03:00 |
| abstrakt | acerimmer, how do i get video from my firewire camera, onto my machine | 03:00 |
| sebsebseb | zetheroo: there are drivers in there that you don't need | 03:00 |
| sebsebseb | zetheroo: thing is, normally it woudn't matter | 03:00 |
| acerimmer | acerimmer: do you have firewire port?? | 03:00 |
| Necrosporus | I can see nothing but blackscreen | 03:00 |
| acerimmer | abstrakt: u have firewire port | 03:00 |
| xcl | how can i use bind9 | 03:00 |
| zetheroo | sebsebseb: because the kernel is so small anyhow ... right!? | 03:00 |
| sebsebseb | zetheroo: I have a link | 03:01 |
| TraceRoute | any of you figure out how to fix usplash well i guess its called plymouth now after installing nvidia drivers? | 03:01 |
| sebsebseb | zetheroo: for you | 03:01 |
| UbuntuJeff | spacebison, sounds like the kernel got upgraded on both of them and it caused your video drivers to mess up. If you can get to the terminal, do you know how to cp and that via the terminaL? | 03:01 |

| abstrakt | i have two clips i've recorded on the tape that's in the camera | 03:01 |
| zetheroo | sebsebseb: I guess the thing is I have not been happy with my Ubuntu system' performance lately .... it seems to be doing more or less what Windowz would tend to do after a while ... just getting slower and less reliable on the hefty jobs ... | 03:01 |

| coolbtk | Everything looks like it is playing sound, including the pulseaudio level meters, just nothing actually comes out of the speakers | 03:16 |
| Necrosporus | Is ubuntu more stable then kubuntu, or it's only conjecture? | 03:16 |
| abstrakt | ok cool | 03:16 |
| abstrakt | got the video capturing | 03:17 |
| zetheroo | greezmunkey: wow it is nice ... and all the SMART info ... cool | 03:17 |
| abstrakt | that works fine | 03:17 |
| bazhang | Necrosporus, please stay on topic | 03:17 |
| abstrakt | now, for the audio capturing | 03:17 |
| abstrakt | also, any ideas how to stream something live to the computer "while" it's recording? | 03:17 |
| zetheroo | greezmunkey: mine says Powered On: 44.9 days ... does that mean it's 44.9 days old? | 03:17 |
| Necrosporus | bazhang, which topic? | 03:17 |
| Zburatorul | you need to add an .xml file in /usr/share/gnome-background-properties/ | 03:17 |
| bazhang | Necrosporus, ubuntu support. | 03:17 |
| sebsebseb | michael1982: this is a good start to find out more about what you can do with Ubuntu | 03:17 |
| abstrakt | cuz right now the camera only seems to work with kino in "Playback" aka "VCR" mode | 03:17 |
| Zburatorul | look for the examples in there | 03:17 |

| kpear78 | hi how do i install wubi | 03:18 |
| nixbox | i am running lucid lynx, and have a laptop with atheros wireless card (using ath5k drivers), for some reason, network manager does not connect automatically to the wireless network I have configured, it only connects when i manually select the network from the list | 03:18 |
| michael1982 | is it worth it upgrading to 10.04 | 03:18 |
| sebsebseb | michael1982: browse Software Centre and/or Synaptic for games | 03:18 |
| acerimmer | abstrakt: yeah | 03:18 |
| kpear78 | every time i restart just automaticlt loads xp | 03:18 |
| sebsebseb | michael1982: yes and no, depends what you want to do, and what version you are on | 03:18 |
| abstrakt | acerimmer, heh, yeah to what now? | 03:18 |
| frmdstryr | reinstall grub | 03:18 |
| abstrakt | acerimmer, i have the video capturing, so that's cool | 03:18 |
| sebsebseb | michael1982: and to some extent your hardware I guess | 03:18 |
| frmdstryr | at kpear78 | 03:18 |
| abstrakt | now i need the audio to capture | 03:18 |
| kpear78 | ok i will try to reinstall | 03:19 |

| coolbtk | I'm going to ask one more time, since Necrosporus obviously wants to help me by convincing me to switch to another distro... I did a network upgrade from 9.10 Netbook Remix to 10.04 LTS this morning on my Acer Aspire One D150. All my sound settings still look the same in PulseAduio and ALSA. I had sound before, I have none now. The PulseAudio level meters show that sound is at least getting that far, and it detects my sound card, bu | 03:19 |
| abstrakt | acerimmer, lol wtf? | 03:19 |
| abstrakt | acerimmer, text? | 03:19 |
| frmdstryr | can someone help me getting to the #python room? | 03:19 |
| sebsebseb | kpear78: make sure Wubi is removed, before doing such an install though | 03:20 |
| abstrakt | acerimmer, what do you mean by text creations? | 03:20 |

| abstrakt | roberto_, you switch to gvim instead :P | 03:20 |
| frmdstryr | is your keyboard layout correct | 03:20 |
| cyrus_mc | I just updated to 10.04. In my fstab I have an NFS mount. Sometimes the end point is not turned on and with this versino of Ubuntu it stops the boot process and asks me to skip or wait, anyway to get around that? | 03:20 |
| abstrakt | acerimmer, uhhh, ok do you run ubuntu studio? | 03:20 |
| roberto_ | abstrakt: lol | 03:20 |
| bambang | in shell, Ctrl + L is "$echo -e \\033c", Alt + F9 =??? | 03:21 |
| roberto_ | how do I get the page up/page down keys to work in the gnome terminal ? | 03:21 |
| acerimmer | abstrakt: studio had the tools that plain ubuntu did not. | 03:21 |
| abstrakt | roberto_, when you say "work" | 03:21 |
| Necrosporus | coolbtk, not really, I just offer you one of possible solution... But if you like ubuntu, it's better to stay on it, because on other distro you will get other problems | 03:21 |
| abstrakt | roberto_, what do you want them to do? | 03:21 |
| Necrosporus | probably | 03:21 |
| abstrakt | acerimmer, do you run studio? | 03:21 |
| acerimmer | abstrakt: everyday | 03:22 |
| abstrakt | acerimmer, and what tools were those? | 03:22 |
| roberto_ | abstrakt: oo, I mean I guess they do work .. right now they play a drum sound. but I'd like to scroll up the lines in the buffer instead :) | 03:22 |
| Necrosporus | coolbtk, try to disable pulse audio daemon | 03:22 |
| acerimmer | abstrakt: sribus for one | 03:22 |
| Necrosporus | /etc/init.d/pulseaudio stop or somehing | 03:22 |
| abstrakt | acerimmer, you mean scribus? | 03:22 |
| abstrakt | acerimmer, i don't think i have the real time kernel installed | 03:23 |
| acerimmer | abstrakt: yes. | 03:23 |
| abstrakt | acerimmer, how can i find out if i have the realtime kernel installed... | 03:23 |
| acerimmer | abstrakt: new kernel will show up in the grub menu at boot | 03:23 |
| roberto_ | abstrakt: uname -a I would guess shows rt if it is the rt kernel ? | 03:23 |
| acerimmer | abstrakt: linux - kernel - yada yada "rt" | 03:23 |
| abstrakt | acerimmer, yeah i don't have that at boot | 03:24 |
| abstrakt | acerimmer, i made a note when you asked me to reboot | 03:24 |
| abstrakt | acerimmer, and uname -a doesn't report an "rt" kernel either | 03:24 |

| abstrakt | i have audacity and ardour | 03:27 |
| abstrakt | both | 03:27 |
| coolbtk | still have nothing on my internal mic though, and no similar "connector" setting for that | 03:27 |
| abstrakt | but neither will record anything | 03:27 |
| abstrakt | when i click record in either, i get basically nothing | 03:28 |
| bazhang | trystan, need to take all steps, no skipping version | 03:28 |
| * abstrakt wonders if he needs to run those as root as well | 03:28 | |
| onetinsoldier | ouyes: i'd guess that you don't have the header files installed, the -dev packages for the libs | 03:28 |
| abstrakt | i had to run kino as root to get it to work | 03:28 |
| acerimmer | abstrakt: just checking. It's possible that synaptic missed some packages. Wait one for cli | 03:28 |
| Klick | is there a program in ubuntu to compile several flash video files into one? | 03:28 |

| elky | the word run and words for poop are things that really should not share sentences kthxbai | 03:30 |

| abstrakt | it's an older kernel from what i can see | 03:30 |
| abstrakt | .9 | 03:30 |
| abstrakt | as opposed to .21 | 03:30 |
| acerimmer | abstrakt: check the pastebin | 03:30 |
| trystan | very cool, bazhang. it won't mess up my data or anything either, will it? | 03:30 |
| trystan | i mean, i know i should have back ups | 03:30 |
| kprav33n | I figured out why my volume control icon disappeared after upgrade. It is now merged with the indicator applet. | 03:30 |
| bazhang | trystan, keep backups of course :) | 03:30 |
| MarquisDeMizzle | after upgrading to 10.04 my /etc/hosts file is getting replaced by NetworkManager on every reboot. anyone seen something similar? | 03:31 |

| [BT]Brendan | I all of a sudden cannot see all except 1 folder on my windows shared ntfs partition and i have no idea why; i did however manage to see the files once when I did "file > open" in a program but I cannot make it work again. any ideas? | 03:52 |
| PHLAK | anyone know why in ubuntu when I click a window that doesn't have focus it gains focus but doesn't move infront of other windws? | 03:52 |
| UbuntuJeff | [BT]Brendan, did you try unmount and then remount it? | 03:53 |
| myrl | anyone know why I cant adjust the volume when im in fullscreen? | 03:53 |
| UbuntuJeff | myrl, if its a game or something it might be taking control of your volume keys | 03:54 |
| myrl | ubuntujeff it is a game but how can i avoid that? | 03:55 |
| UbuntuJeff | myrl, what game? | 03:55 |
| [BT]Brendan | Ah yes, I see. Apparrently there is some other program creating a folder that is in the place of the mount location "/media/Storage/" so when i mount it, it appears as /media/Storage_/ | 03:55 |
| myrl | ubuntujeff bzflag XD | 03:55 |
| [BT]Brendan | It's done this alot i just remembered, duh. but I don't know why or whats doing it | 03:55 |

| yaboo | how can i resolve this please | 04:06 |
| UbuntuJeff | myrl, your right the volume doesn't work, I think it just that the game captures all keyboard inputs thats why | 04:06 |
| ChromiumChris | _juca, how do I use chmod? | 04:06 |
| UbuntuJeff | ChromiumChris, guessing your trying to make it an executable, so chmod +x nameoffile | 04:07 |

| UbuntuJeff | zipper, bring up system monitor | 04:08 |
| _pg_ | zipper, there is a force quit applet. you can quit it from system monitor, and im sure there is a cli way that i dont know | 04:08 |

| _pg_ | does grep sound like an std to anyone else? | 04:09 |
| UbuntuJeff | neuro_, why can't you just use the 64bit version? | 04:09 |
| neuro_ | UbuntuJeff: silly proprietary juniper network connect client | 04:09 |
| zipper | thanks Corrine thanks UbuntuJeff | 04:09 |
| neuro_ | UbuntuJeff: won't work with anything cept 32bit java version and is 32 binaries packaged in there, they ONLY support old versions of redhat, heh | 04:10 |
| UbuntuJeff | neuro_, how do you use this program? I have no idea what it is lol | 04:10 |
| neuro_ | UbuntuJeff: http://mad-scientist.net/juniper.html | 04:10 |
| neuro_ | UbuntuJeff: basically it's a VPN client for juniper SSL concentrator | 04:11 |
| UbuntuJeff | neuro_, ahh okay | 04:11 |
| neuro_ | UbuntuJeff: yeah uber important so I can get to work network to actually do work, I picked ubuntu cause it was the easiest to get that setup in, but it seems lucid doesn't have the 32bit java package anymore like karmic did | 04:11 |

| primetime | tried ctrl+alt+f1...nothing | 04:32 |
| histo | primetime: see if you can atleast get a terminal login | 04:32 |
| dbum | CkhiKuzad: unetbootin is for turning a flash drive into a "bootable CD".... you can boot off usb then install from in there | 04:32 |
| greezmunkey | yaboo: are you sure you need /etc/init.d/samba, or is it really /etc/init.d/smbd | 04:33 |
| jef91 | hellphyre it shows the Win7 system | 04:33 |

| hellphyre | jef91: if it exists | 04:34 |
| yaboo | histo: i did apt-get install samba | 04:34 |
| jef91 | and do what there hellphyre? | 04:34 |
| dbum | CkhiKuzad: probably a lot nicer than trying to get grub to do that(if possible) | 04:34 |
| CkhiKuzad | dbum, the reason i referred to windows as "winblows" is because i dont want windows anymore. i cant burn the ISO to a disk, i dont have a burner. | 04:35 |
| hellphyre | jef91: if it exists, what the value in decimal? | 04:35 |
| histo | primetime: could be if data isn't saved etc... but what else can you do at this point? try hittign ctrl+alt+del and see if it will initiate a reboot on its on. | 04:35 |
| histo | yaboo: well then /etc/init.d/samba should be there its a script to start stop and restart samba so the command would be. sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart | 04:35 |

| jef91 | Yep. | 04:37 |

| hellphyre | jef91: goto places, connect to server | 04:38 |

| primetime | I only install vlc and docky/cairo (both end the same as far as freezing). I've reinstalled Ubuntu 5 times now..same result every time after ~2 days | 04:42 |
| histo | primetime: what is the problem? random lockups? | 04:42 |
| qub | Well, I found that even some icon themes can mess the system ... | 04:42 |
| hellphyre | jef91: i have some links you can try | 04:42 |
| hellphyre | jef91: if you want | 04:42 |
| primetime | Histo: random lockups and unresponsive (firefox and nautilus constantly freezing) | 04:43 |
| jef91 | sure hellphyre | 04:43 |
| histo | primetime: did 9.10 or previous versions have lockups? | 04:43 |
| qub | for example, haiku icon theme prevent me from login | 04:43 |
| primetime | New Ubuntu user...nothing to really compare to | 04:43 |
| histo | primetime: ahh how old is your computer? | 04:44 |

Does anyone here know where I can get more diagnostic info for this? | 04:52 |

| yaboo | ok | 04:52 |
| anthony | hi guys | 04:53 |
| yaboo | but the box should show the shares also | 04:53 |

| ubuntitude | hey, guys, i have a weird issue: when i reactivate out of screensaver, the screen will momentarily light up before fading again, and then re-activate, and appear normal, however, the keyboard becomes disabled for whatever application i had pulled up when the screensaver appeared. Any ideas how to remedy this? | 04:56 |
| anthony | yes i install it already | 04:56 |
| anthony | can i buckup what i install already | 04:56 |
| histo | anthony: well if the applications are installed from the repos all will be there when you upgrade | 04:56 |
| histo | anthony: if you've downloaded debs and source code those won't be. | 04:57 |
| primetime | histo: just want to make sure that my comp should be able to run 10.04 right? | 04:57 |
| DanDare | ubuntitude, not sure but I think you can start disabling any visual effects for a troubleshoot. You think it may be good ? | 04:57 |
| histo | primetime: possible kind of have to figure otu what the issue is first to make that assumption | 04:57 |
| theadmin | histo: Uh, they will. Updates don't delete anything. They might break em, though. | 04:57 |
| anthony | you mean i can't buckup what i install already | 04:57 |
| ubuntitude | DanDare: I'll try that; now that i think of it, this first started happening when i enabled some stuff in compizconfig. | 04:57 |
| DanDare | ubuntitude, i had some issues with 1 mouse button not responding... i think it was a compiz problem | 04:57 |
| Corrine | you can backup the settings | 04:58 |
| histo | theadmin: anthony well thats what i mean dependencies etc.. might be broken with updates of packages that were installed from source. | 04:58 |
| theadmin | anthony: You can't back up the apps themselves, yes. | 04:58 |
| histo | Corrine: settings for what? | 04:58 |
| Corrine | the apps he wants to back up | 04:58 |
| histo | Corrine: settings are usually all in /home for user specific stuff. | 04:58 |
| highonbien | M | 04:58 |
| Corrine | Um, yes, thats what I'm talking about | 04:58 |
| histo | Corrine: global settings are in /etc/ most likely thsoe won't be deleted by an upgrade | 04:58 |
| anthony | ok thank you for the information | 04:59 |
| anthony | guys | 04:59 |
| ubuntitude | DanDare: do you know of a terminal command to induce screensaver? | 04:59 |
| theadmin | ubuntitude: For GNOME, it is "gnome-screensaver-command" | 04:59 |
| ubuntitude | theadmin: alright, thanks :) | 04:59 |
| DanDare | ubuntitude, I dont know :( set it for a small ammount of time like 1 minute | 04:59 |
| danielbw | histo, why would e1000 suddenly stop working? This only happened in the past 2 days since I installed 10.04. I want to know how I can diagnose this. When I look at ifconfig there are no errors on the device | 04:59 |
| danielbw | and shouldnt watchdog reload driver? | 05:00 |
| danielbw | if it fails? | 05:00 |
| primetime | histo: well i've made the changes and rebooted so now I'll just have to play with it for a while and see if it has any problems | 05:00 |
| DanDare | OpenGL Xscreensavers owns any windows native screensaver ever made :p | 05:01 |

| theadmin | DanDare: true :D | 05:01 |
| theadmin | anthony: Try with VLC | 05:01 |
| ubuntitude | theadmin: so what would be the actual command for activating screensaver? would it be gnome-screensaver-on or something? | 05:01 |
| histo | primetime: yeap | 05:01 |
| Bookman | what is the lightest email client with imap? | 05:01 |
| greezmunkey | yaboo: you could try adding: browseable = yes in the [jsirucka] section, then restart smbd - but you need to make sure that you have a user created: sudo smbpasswd -a {username} | 05:01 |
| theadmin | ubuntitude: no no, it's exactly like that, "gnome-screensaver-command". | 05:01 |
| carl_ | how do i fix this E: Type 'n' is not known on line 1 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/nilarimogard-webupd8-lucid.list | 05:01 |
| yaboo | greezmunkey: thanks | 05:02 |
| ubuntitude | theadmin: it gave me Message: Failed to connect to the D-BUS daemon: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken. | 05:02 |
| anthony | it tell me some error about the audio | 05:02 |
| ubuntitude | theadmin: when i typed in gnome-screensaver-command | 05:02 |
| theadmin | ubuntitude: Uh. Something's just broken then. It works here. | 05:02 |
| DanDare | anthony, video cames from cellphone ? | 05:02 |
| ubuntitude | theadmin: strange, strange, strange... | 05:02 |
| primetime | thanks for the help everybody. :D | 05:03 |
| anthony | yes | 05:03 |
| DanDare | anthony, so it's probably using the very proprietary audio format AMR | 05:03 |
| winXPuser | In Windows, all networking is done by wizards. Setting a home LAN manually ended with a day of struggle without any success. At the end, we hit the 'do it automatically' button, and it started working. Very uncomfortable. How is networking done in Ubuntu? | 05:04 |
| DanDare | question should be, what the nice Ubuntu media player that will handle video formats and audio formats like AMR ? | 05:04 |
| DanDare | anthony, tried VLC ? | 05:04 |
| theadmin | winXPuser: Well, usually authomatic. You can configure it manually. | 05:04 |
| yaboo | histo: I have not changed my firewall for like 6 mths, how can this affect samba now | 05:05 |

| carl_ | thx | 05:06 |
| anthony | yes i already try vlc but it tell me about audio problem | 05:06 |
| DanDare | carl_ I think it's easy to discover if you paste the archive using http://ubuntu.pastebin.com | 05:06 |
| DanDare | anthony, what error says ? | 05:06 |
| skybinary | i have just installed lucid ubuntu 10.04 and browsed to youtube in firefox, there are 3 options for flash adobe,swfdec and gnash, what do i choose? | 05:07 |
| theadmin | DanDare: VLC errors are usually all the same. "VLC does not support this media format. There is nothing you can do about it." | 05:07 |
| theadmin | skybinary: Adobe one is the official one so go with it | 05:07 |
| anthony | theres no compatible audio file for this format | 05:07 |

| greezmunkey | coder decoder | 05:09 |
| jongbergs | anthony: does sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras work? | 05:09 |
| DanDare | anthony, the best alternative for you is to transcoding the audio part to another format.. or even the hole stuff using ffmpeg or such | 05:09 |
| anthony | yes i already install it | 05:10 |
| theadmin | jongbergs: If VLC does not eat it, it ain't gonna work with restricted extras stuff, sorry :D | 05:10 |
| anthony | ok thanks | 05:10 |
| theadmin | what on earth is "libsoup" o-O | 05:10 |
| DanDare | amr is one of the most proprietary formats :p | 05:10 |
| coondog | how do I get 32 bit emul support for binaries? | 05:11 |
| DanDare | "libsoup is an HTTP client/server library for GNOME" | 05:11 |
| theadmin | DanDare: Ah I see, thanks :D | 05:11 |
| DanDare | well, internet says like this at least | 05:11 |

| GodricBrutus | Can anybody help me get 'pulseaudio' working? it seems that whenever i select it for an application to use, that application has no sound. also, 'system>preferences>default soundcard' doesn't work. i click it, it says that it's starting, but it just never comes up. i have no sound icon on my top right toolbar, but my sound is working, because i can play music with 'mpd' and movies with vlc | 05:28 |
| Fudge | mines 2.8 and hardly doing anything, so thats ok for a quad is it? | 05:28 |
| hevnsnt | greezmunkey: yeah sorry just normally no monitor | 05:28 |
| Gartral | 0.03-5.66 depending... i pushed it to 8.something one day doing ALOT | 05:28 |
| chet | gartral: damn. thanks for the answer though. | 05:28 |

| archnagle | hey folks, I'm having crazy problems with Thunderbird since upgrading to 10.04. it crashes for an existing user (Segmentation fault on launch), but for a user which had not thunderbird config before, I was able to set it up fine. for the existing user, I blew away the .mozilla-thunderbird link and .thunderbird directory, but still crashes | 05:30 |
| greezmunkey | hevnsnt: Ihaven't given that much thought, I'd have to read up on it myself, sorry. | 05:30 |

| greezmunkey | hevnsnt: it really can't be that difficult though. Never even considered doing that :) | 05:31 |
| Gartral | chet at this point, not much is known about the i2c set in those machines.. your on your own, you could go and start writing a driver.. an easy start to that would be getting a hardware trace | 05:32 |

| === jexmex_ is now known as jexmex | ||
| FFForever | GodricBrutus, I meant designer*, do you notice black lines in firefox when using localhost? | 05:34 |
| ouyes | i to set the xchat make it register when connect to a server ? | 05:34 |
| GodricBrutus | FFForever, no | 05:35 |
| FFForever | If I use localhost some images have black borders around them but magically vanish when I upload them to a domain =\ | 05:35 |
| GodricBrutus | FFForever, pngs? | 05:35 |
| Gartral | GodricBrutus: Pulseaudio fails in many situations, ive stopped using it, switching in favor of alsa and jack. pulse has promise, but isnt ready for the lime light yet | 05:35 |
| FFForever | nope | 05:36 |
| Fudge | archnagle it doesnt usually go over 2 unless im doing a lot of stuff but other users using the same spin of ubuntu report loads very low | 05:36 |

| Fudge | archnagle i did notice before i rebooted my swap was mostly being used but i didnt know how to clear it | 05:36 |
| FFForever | there is a black border next to it, but if I upload it to my vps and run it there is no black line =\ | 05:36 |
| undecim | FFForever: Maybe add a "border: 0" to the style? | 05:36 |
| GodricBrutus | Gartral, i see. but i think i ned it to get sound on my virtualbox guest os, and to play sound on multiple apps simultaneously | 05:37 |
| EntityReborn | How can I force flushing data to a usb drive? | 05:37 |
| FFForever | undecim, I have * border: none; | 05:37 |
| xeer0 | Does totem support multiprocessor decoding? | 05:37 |
| greezmunkey | hevnsnt: Still here? | 05:37 |
| archnagle | Fudge: to free up swap, stop any large processes, then swapoff -a and then swapon -a which basically forces everything in swap back to main memory (assuming there's room) and then re-enables swap | 05:37 |
| GodricBrutus | joot, i did too. it got my sound working, but now my sound icon is gone, and 'select default soudn card' doesnt work | 05:38 |
| greezmunkey | archnagle: what if there's not enough room? | 05:38 |
| archnagle | Fudge: if swap is filling up though, that's a problem and you need to add RAM | 05:38 |
| undecim | FFForever: Does the border change the position of the actual image, as far as you can tell? (i.e. shifts it by a pixel because of the border) | 05:38 |
| GodricBrutus | FFForever, hmm, i have no idea then | 05:38 |
| ouyes | where can i find a channel related to password? | 05:38 |
| FFForever | =\ | 05:38 |
| unsure | ouyes, to what password? | 05:38 |
| Fudge | archnagle i have 4gig of ram and only a small portion of it was being used whilst the 6gig of swap was nearly full | 05:38 |
| Gartral | Fudge: or.. if you have the spare 300 USD you could buy a SSD and use it for swap | 05:38 |
| archnagle | greezmunkey / Fudge, not sure what happens if your swapoff without enough memory, kernel may start killing processes with out-of-memory errors | 05:38 |
| greezmunkey | archnagle: it'd be an interesting experiment | 05:39 |
| archnagle | Fudge: swapoff / swapon can push stuff back into main memory, but it may not be an issue | 05:39 |
| ouyes | unsure, i want to make a password list for brute force attack | 05:39 |
| joot | GodricBrutus: O I see. you can probably get an Icon from your start bar menu but I dunno about the soundcard options | 05:39 |

| DanDare | interesting | 05:40 |
| archnagle | greezmunkey: yeah, heh, except usually I see high swap on production servers where letting the kernel murder my poor innocent applicatiosn would be Bad (tm) | 05:40 |
| ouyes | unsure, you know aes, wep wpa? and so on , | 05:40 |
| unsure | ouyes, no no idea what it is | 05:40 |

| greezmunkey | archnagle: I have a paypal account ;) | 05:41 |

| kwtm2 | archnagle: Okay, I just want to make sure (sorry if I'm repeating the question): even though Kubuntu 8.04 is not officially LTS, the underlying 8.04 Ubuntu *is* LTS, and this is sufficient for "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" to make the jump to the next higher LTS version rather than the next immediate higher version, am I correct? | 06:11 |
| ezrafree | ahh it seems i needed to reinstall ntfs-config | 06:12 |
| karma_police | i'm gonna try to do my updates again.. may skip the grub update.. i think since i am running a live usb with persistent it is being messed up with grub update | 06:13 |

| chet | im not sure if its ubuntu or nvidia's issue | 06:23 |
| karma_police_ | anyone else getting crash after kernal update? | 06:24 |
| Gnea | chet: nvidia? the standard nv module or nvidia module? | 06:24 |
| mossi | I will give that a try brb | 06:24 |
| ScoobySnack | yikes | 06:24 |
| chet | the proprietary drivers, not any specific app from what i can tell | 06:24 |
| chet | just involved a xorg.conf edit | 06:24 |
| Gnea | chet: have you tried nvidia-settings? | 06:25 |
| Gnea | hrm | 06:25 |
| chet | nvidia settings brightness doesnt actually do brightness | 06:25 |
| chet | it just messes with colors | 06:25 |
| Gnea | why would you need to edit xorg.conf? installing the nvidia drivers from the hardware menu should get it all setup for you | 06:25 |
| chet | you're misunderstanding | 06:25 |
| Gnea | perhaps | 06:25 |
| Semitones | what's the channel for enquiring about the irc bots? | 06:25 |
| raviepic3 | dotblank, which tab and option in system->admin ? | 06:25 |

| karma_police_ | when i run update manager it does grub update.. Configuring Grub-PC Linux command line is blank.. should i type something in there before clicking forward? | 06:26 |
| Gnea | chet: it almost sounds like you installed the nvidia driver from nvidia.com itself, but yeah, maybe I misunderstood | 06:26 |
| chet | my specific laptop, the samsung x460-44g has some issues with brightness controls. the brightness applet doesnt work, xgamma DOES work, but it just washes out colors and doesnt touch the backlight. nvidia settings does the same as xgamma. power management display brightness had no effect. after editing xorg.conf the power management slider works. | 06:27 |
| chet | youd be correct in that assumption | 06:27 |
| dotblank | raviepic3, first | 06:27 |
| bullgard4 | '~$ sudo update-manager -d' upgraded to Ubuntu 10.04 and installed 7 DEB program packages from the section »Games and Amusement«. How can I make that future update manager updates or upgrades will not install DEB program packages from the section »Games and Amusement«? | 06:27 |
| chet | i did try once with a fresh stall of lucid with their drivers from their website | 06:27 |
| chet | and i also tried once with another fresh install of drivers from hardware drivers | 06:27 |
| raviepic3 | dotblank, you mean sys->admin->software sources -> first tab ? | 06:27 |
| chet | both had the exact same issues, and were solved the same way | 06:28 |
| Gnea | chet: just wondering why you used the nvidia.com drivers and not the drivers that ubuntu packages up to work correctly? | 06:28 |
| Gnea | I see | 06:28 |
| dotblank | raviepic3, yes | 06:28 |
| chet | i was using the ones from the packages first, but to try to resolve the problem i tried the nvidia updated ones that arent in the repository yet | 06:28 |
| chet | i tried both just for bug testing sake | 06:28 |
| quiescens | needs a way to display battery % on the bar without having to mouse over it all the time | 06:29 |
| karma_police_ | this is becoming to fragile for me | 06:29 |
| Gnea | chet: awesome. so the laptop doesn't have any function key combos to change the brightness? | 06:29 |
| raviepic3 | i have changed the source from my country to main course | 06:30 |
| xeer0 | In a laucher for gnome-terminal I have made it connect it to a server via ssh. After it has connected I'd like it to add 'screen -r'. I put this as " -x 'screen -r' in the launcher. It didnt work ... how do I do it? | 06:30 |
| chet | it does, they just dont work | 06:30 |
| Gnea | ugh | 06:30 |
| silv3r_m00n | hi there | 06:30 |
| chet | yeah, i know. quite a mess. | 06:30 |
| chet | its annoying too because the volume function keys work | 06:30 |
| chet | all of the others work | 06:30 |
| chet | just brightness doesnt | 06:30 |
| silv3r_m00n | can I resize an extended partition to include some free space to the left of it ? | 06:30 |
| chet | hence using power management to fix it | 06:30 |
| karma_police_ | i sometimes realize why linux is free | 06:30 |
| yaboo | think samba on 10.04 is bjorked | 06:30 |
| karma_police_ | E: linux-image-2.6.32-22-generic: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 2 E: linux-image-generic: dependency problems - leaving unconfigured E: linux-generic: dependency problems - leaving unconfigured | 06:31 |
| Gnea | chet: that's rather interesting. how well does the power management fix actually work, though? | 06:31 |
| Gartral | how does one decipher the boogers smeared accros the bottom of the HDD benchmark test in 10.04's disk util? | 06:31 |
| Gnea | chet: and what happens if you plug in an external monitor? | 06:31 |
| xeer0 | How do I make a launcher for gnome-terminal output a command after it has connected via ssh to a server? | 06:31 |
| karma_police_ | seems like the monetary savings you get are all used up and traded for the amount of time you spend trying to fix all the bugs | 06:32 |
| chet | gnea: power management works quite well, although it only adjusts the brightness every 7-15% | 06:32 |
| chet | i have no complaints about the power management fix | 06:32 |
| chet | its far better than 100% backlight | 06:32 |
| xangua | karma_police_: free as in freedom, not as in free beer; that attitude is only going to make no one want to help you | 06:32 |
| chet | i quit 9.10 because it hurt my eyes too much | 06:32 |
| xangua | !attitude > karma_police_ | 06:32 |
| ubottu | karma_police_, please see my private message | 06:32 |
| chet | gnea: i haven't tried an external monitor, good question. i'll try it tomorrow i think. | 06:33 |
| bullgard4 | silv3r_m00n: The tool that you should use, is GParted. You can reach your goal in 2 steps. 1.) Enlarge your partition to the right. 2.) Shrink your partition from the left. | 06:33 |
| karma_police_ | i'm sorry.. i'm just tired and frustrated is all.. i know a lot of this is from me being a noob.. just gets old is all | 06:33 |
| xeer0 | karma_police_: You are correct. On the other hand, I've used WIndows for 7 years, yet in the couple of months with linux I realized how little I know about computers. I think the learnings is fun too ... but I understand that many doesn't, and until Linux is as much install-and-forget as windows or mac osx, it'll have a marginal market share | 06:33 |
| Gnea | chet: that might help narrow the problem down a bit more. it might just be that there's a new routine for samsung's hardware that nvidia needs to address | 06:33 |
| silv3r_m00n | bullgard4: so its possible ? | 06:34 |
| silv3r_m00n | and is it fine for the health of the hard disk to resize partitions | 06:34 |
| bullgard4 | silv3r_m00n: Yes. | 06:34 |
| chet | gnea: well, this laptop was released in the end of 08, i would think they would have addressed it by now. unless theyre completely unaware, and if thats the case they wont listen to one person. | 06:34 |
| xeer0 | karma_police_: Sorry for an incomprehensible sentence ... Im tired after staying up the entire night fixing my ubuntu server :P | 06:35 |
| mannyv | karma_police_, after spending the last 5 hours trying to get lucid server to boot I can TOTALLY relate to you | 06:35 |
| bullgard4 | silv3r_m00n: First, of course, you should make a backup of your partition. Just in case you are making an errorneous operation. | 06:35 |
| skyl | "+yI upgraded to 10.04 and my vim config doesn't work like it used to | 06:35 |
| skyl | vnoremap y "+y | 06:35 |
| silv3r_m00n | bullgard4: right now its 114 * 3 + 121 .....and I want to make it 63 + 100*4 , so it will need lot of resizing | 06:35 |
| greezmunkey | What can I use in a bash script that generates a carriage return? | 06:35 |
| karma_police_ | i don't think i will ever give linux up.. it really is taking huge steps forward. i feel like i need to relearn how to use a computer tho.. lol | 06:35 |
| skyl | did yank to a buffer that I could paste out of | 06:35 |
| karma_police_ | your way ahead of me if you are using server tho.. no gui right? | 06:36 |
| silv3r_m00n | bullgard4: I don't have other place to backup my data , I will be backing it up across partitions only | 06:36 |
| skyl | but not it doesn't work, any luck that someone knows what's going on? | 06:36 |
| SandGorgon | silv3r_m00n, consider having lvm partitions rather than simple partitions - all resize, etc. stuff will be easy later on http://www.linux.com/learn/tutorials/306352-weekend-project-migrate-from-direct-partitions-to-lvm-volumes | 06:36 |
| bullgard4 | silv3r_m00n: These large operation will take much time. | 06:36 |
| xeer0 | karma_police_: My feeling exactly! I feel exactly as noobish as I did when I first started with computers 6-7 years ago, with Windows | 06:36 |
| mannyv | i use server on my server and desktop on my err... laptop | 06:36 |
| SandGorgon | xeer0, are we lucid bashing ? I want in.. | 06:36 |
| Gartral | karma_police_: server COULD have a gui setup.. but i never figured out a reason for it other than (i HATE this term) "Easy access" | 06:37 |
| xeer0 | SandGorgon: lol | 06:37 |
| silv3r_m00n | bullgard4: how much time will it take to resize partitions ? | 06:37 |
| bullgard4 | silv3r_m00n: A bad idea: to back up across partitions only. | 06:37 |
| chet | i <3 lucid 10000x more than karmic solely because my eyes aren't bleeding anymore | 06:37 |
| SandGorgon | xeer0, I have one word for you... and one word only - Plymouth | 06:37 |
| chet | gnea: do you suppose the brightness controls are bound incorrect or something? | 06:37 |
| chet | sandgorgon: well played sir | 06:37 |
| silv3r_m00n | bullgard4: I have to alternatively resize partitions placing all data in the other partition | 06:37 |
| PlayX | my lucid ist booting slower than karmic | 06:37 |
| bullgard4 | silv3r_m00n: I do not remember how long it took me to resize 200 MB. I believe this was more than an hour. | 06:38 |
| dacs | got two question: 1) how can i pull other ubuntu box e.g like vnc ? 2) i installed 32bit on one of my 64bit box, how can i change it from 32 to 64 bit , or do i have to download and install the 64bit section | 06:38 |
| karma_police_ | i like lucid.. i haven't started encountering probs until i started trying to make persistent live usb's.. doing it more for a hobby of showing off linux to my friends who think windows 7 is the new ham sandwitch | 06:38 |
| silv3r_m00n | all my partitions are in gb .......114 gb * 4 | 06:39 |
| SandGorgon | dacs, yes.. u need clean reinstall | 06:39 |
| bullgard4 | PlayX: This is an often heard complaint. Please analyze first your dmesg. | 06:39 |
| silv3r_m00n | then it would probably take weeks | 06:39 |
| silv3r_m00n | I installed ubuntu on the first partition , and now need to install windows , is that possible ? | 06:39 |
| Gartral | silv3r_m00n: thats still a bad idea.. think of the liklyhood of a specific partition randomly failing versus if the entire disk fails.. which happens all too often | 06:39 |
| karma_police_ | its better to install windows first | 06:39 |
| karma_police_ | windows install will wipe out grub | 06:40 |
| Gartral | silv3r_m00n: yes.. just a pain | 06:40 |
| dacs | SandGorgon: that sucks :) | 06:40 |
| xeer0 | silv3r_m00n: Yes, but grub will be overwritten, so you'll need to fiddle with a live usb or cd afterwards | 06:40 |
| bullgard4 | silv3r_m00n: It is possible to first install Ubuntu and Windows afterwards. But the other sequence is to be recommended. | 06:40 |
| silv3r_m00n | ya I shall get back grub using a live cd | 06:40 |
| PlayX | is in the kdenlive a bug? i have white stripe in all of my videos | 06:40 |
| SandGorgon | silv3r_m00n, it is preferable that you install windows first... since it wipes out the multiboot. But if you install windows now - you'll have boot once with a livecd to write grub to your boot partition and get multiboot back | 06:40 |
| karma_police_ | brb | 06:41 |
| Gnea | chet: I'm not sure, have you tried to see if there are any alternative brightness-type controls for the gui? | 06:41 |
| Gartral | silv3r_m00n: it;s just one extra step | 06:41 |
| SandGorgon | is there a way to get a plymouth theme that behaves like usplash - simple, no KMS and still looks good on my 1280x800 laptop ? | 06:41 |
| xeer0 | Well, gn ppl ... You take the beating of the lynx and tame it, I'll stick with the koala for a few more months | 06:42 |
| chet | gnea: not sure what you mean by alternative brightness controls for gui, sorry ive only had ubuntu for about a grand total of 2 weeks | 06:42 |
| bitserf | does the launchpad password reset work? trying to let people on an existing bug know that i've found a workaround, but not getting anything delivered to my gmail acct | 06:43 |
| silv3r_m00n | is there a way to go back to karmic from lucid | 06:43 |
| mossi | I'm here again and couldn't start the nm-applet :( | 06:43 |
| silv3r_m00n | I had upgraded karmic by using the alternate cd | 06:43 |

| svscvsc | Right. it says it there | 06:47 |

| zhengshi | why use such an old edition | 06:49 |
| svscvsc | zhengshi, because what I run on it works | 06:49 |

| datacrusher | hello everyone. i got a pc with windows xp installed, and started an installation with ubuntu 10.04, but my cd for some reason got corrupted. i went with 9.10 desktop boot to install and upgrade, but its not finding my disks on the partitons part of the installation | 06:50 |
| svscvsc | Wow Gartral you posted a trigger, good one | 06:50 |
| Gartral | silv3r_m00n: no.. Linux describes a MASSIVE range of hundred of seperate flavors or distributions.. i use windows for gaming, and keep a FAT32 "bitlocker" partition. or just inject from linux into windows (as theres no etx4 driver for windows yet, i cant go vise-versa) | 06:50 |
| zhengshi | I am sorry | 06:50 |
| svscvsc | Anyway, there is a 404 | 06:50 |
| mossi | What would be the exact command if i would wan't to connect to my wlan named "Penttila" | 06:50 |
| svscvsc | seems fairly obvious some issue with the server unless there is something local that can cause that. | 06:50 |
| svscvsc | I'll switch mirrors | 06:50 |
| Gartral | svscvsc: Hardy is EOL, you cant update anymore, you have to grab an alternat install cd | 06:51 |
| silv3r_m00n | what is FAT32 "bitlocker" partition ? | 06:51 |
| zhengshi | anyone use Gentoo? I have strong interest in it | 06:51 |
| Gartral | silv3r_m00n: a partition thats formatted to fat32.. names bitlocker :P | 06:51 |
| silv3r_m00n | firefox isn't following the font setting of gnome | 06:52 |
| silv3r_m00n | why? | 06:52 |
| chet | bitlocker is a vista and windows 7 encryption thing i think | 06:52 |

| chet | ah ok | 06:53 |
| Gartral | silv3r_m00n: forefox has it's own font settings.. | 06:53 |
| silv3r_m00n | Gartral: ya , played enough with them , before the upgrade firefox looked perfect , better than windows , but after upgrade , its useless | 06:53 |
| silv3r_m00n | kind of rubbish | 06:53 |
| chet | so, i think ive gathered all the info to have my laptop model fully supported by ubuntu with some tweaks, is there somewhere i can post them so devs can see it? launchpad or what? | 06:53 |
| silv3r_m00n | even in kde fonts are looking strange , some look taller , some shorter some roundish | 06:54 |

| red2kic | silv3r_m00n: I'm just saying... is all. You can fix KDE font issues. I use GNOME. You can ask somebody here or #kubuntu or maybe #kde too. Backup your data and work. Also, see !home (in future, it's easier to have home on different partition (or hard drive even). | 07:00 |
| bullgard4 | '~$ sudo update-manager -d' upgraded to Ubuntu 10.04 and installed 7 DEB program packages from the section »Games and Amusement«. How can I make that future update manager updates or upgrades will not install DEB program packages from the section »Games and Amusement«? | 07:00 |

| wildbat | aioobe, make a bootable USB with net install | 07:00 |
| aioobe | net install = mini.iso? | 07:00 |

| silv3r_m00n | red2kic: suppose I have /home on a different partition and then reinstall linux , will that home stay there ? | 07:01 |
| aioobe | wildbat: as I said, usb-creator does not accept mini.iso: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/usb-creator/+bug/506441 | 07:01 |
| red2kic | silv3r_m00n: Yes. Given that you don't format over the "home" partition and at the installation prompt, you points /home to whatever your partitions sit. | 07:02 |
| wildbat | you can do it manually | 07:02 |
| {g} | wildbat: you mean me? | 07:02 |

| red2kic | silv3r_m00n: /etc is for system-wide configuration files. It's a must. Anyway, the real problem is that you're facing issues with KDE fonts. Try hitting all channels first. Kubutnu, KDE, Firefox. | 07:08 |

| chet | jimlovell777: if memory serves i believe so, i cant check for you atm | 07:13 |

| coz_ | steven__, what exactly do you mean? | 07:32 |
| Sheepherd | hi all... first time i connected my mobile phone via usb a menu popped up where i could chose what to do next (view pictures, listen to music). after reconnecting the device this menu doesnt appear anymore... someone knows why? | 07:32 |
| rww | andruk: mount should autodetect the filesystem type if it's ext3 or ext4 = | 07:33 |
| {g} | wildbat: ubuntu 0 | 07:33 |
| BRc | thx will try that... | 07:33 |

| histo | skrite: what is compiz standalone? | 07:38 |
| steven__ | how do i copy in past what the hot keys | 07:38 |
| coz_ | steven__, the easiest way to copy and paste in linux is to highligh text...like the command I gave...and simply middle click inside terminal window...or a text editor | 07:38 |
| histo | steven__: ctrl+shift+c and ctrl+shft+v | 07:38 |

| histo | microhaxo: do you know what chipset it has? | 07:39 |
| histo | microhaxo: you may need to install restrcited drivers or firmware for your card. | 07:39 |
| skrite | histo, well, i mean i am running compiz as a window manager without useing a desktop environment like gnome or kde or xfce4 | 07:39 |
| bazhang | robscomputer, conky, most likely | 07:39 |
| coz_ | steven__, well highlight and middle click are the easiest however in terminal to copy from a terminal it is shift+ctrl+c and to paste into a terminal it is shift+ctrl+v | 07:39 |
| microhaxo | histo: rt2860sta | 07:39 |
| gottto | robscomputer: it might have been conky | 07:39 |

| steven__ | coz_: is this a good card | 07:41 |
| coz_ | steven__, ok the compiz options under fusion icon are generally for nvidia cards however now with the new nvidia drivers ..both of those options are actually no longer needed | 07:41 |

| daiatlus79 | histo: no interfaces listed... | 07:52 |
| histo | TyanColte: get rid of the sudo in fstab | 07:53 |

| TyanColte | wait, does the folder have to exist before i can mount to it? | 07:54 |
| TyanColte | that dosn't make sense | 07:54 |
| histo | TyanColte: yes and sudo doesn't belong in fstab | 07:54 |
| histo | TyanColte: but you do what you want. | 07:54 |
| daiatlus79 | histo: nope... it all there.. i have terminals font small so it wont do that.. | 07:54 |
| te_ | 3~ | 07:55 |
| histo | daiatlus79: I have no idea its not seeing your network cards. Try lspci see if a network adapter shows up there | 07:55 |
| TyanColte | you're telling me something i alreday know, i know sudo doesn't belong in fstab, i put it in there temporarily to make it work for a bit but i was trying to figure out how to make it automount without using it | 07:55 |
| airtonix | TyanColte, can't mount something on something that doesn't exist | 07:55 |
| histo | TyanColte: You don't need it in fstab putting it in there is causing issues | 07:55 |
| histo | TyanColte: its doing nothing | 07:55 |
| TyanColte | figured it would create it | 07:55 |
| TyanColte | nvm problem solved | 07:56 |
| daiatlus79 | histo: it shows up when i use lspci | 07:56 |
| airtonix | TyanColte, your mount folder is the door to the block device you are trying to mount.... no door no access to device. | 07:56 |
| histo | TyanColte: fstab doesn't understand sudo but understands the rest of your line | 07:56 |
| histo | TyanColte: also your mount folder has to be there as a place holder | 07:56 |
| daiatlus79 | histo: and my wlan as well | 07:56 |
| histo | TyanColte: and your UUID has to be correct. After you get your fstab fixed just sudo mount -a should mount it | 07:56 |
| histo | TyanColte: and it will be mounted on boot for you. | 07:57 |
| histo | daiatlus79: thats just odd. I'm at a loss for why ifconfig wouldn't see it. | 07:57 |
| TyanColte | yea but i don't want to have to do sudo mount -a every time i start my fing computer | 07:57 |

| histo | whyameye: daemon? | 08:07 |
| histo | Linux: crop it or do you mean compress it? | 08:08 |
| red2kic | Linux: Resize the image? | 08:08 |
| whyameye | histo: I'm not finding it with ps aux. SO maybe it isn't the problem | 08:08 |
| Linux | Histo: I do not want to compress. I just want to reduce the size | 08:08 |
| histo | whyameye: maybe its not running. its not on my system by default | 08:08 |
| crdlb | Archaeopteryx: what distro? glib 2.12 implies he's using edgy which is extremely unsupported | 08:08 |
| whyameye | histo: then it probably isn't required to find a scanner. | 08:08 |
| histo | Linux: what do you mean by size size on disk? or dimensions? | 08:09 |

| Sheepherd | hi all... first time i connected my mobile phone via usb a menu popped up where i could chose what to do next (view pictures, listen to music). after reconnecting the device this menu doesnt appear anymore... someone knows why? | 08:09 |
| romualdo | hallo | 08:09 |
| histo | Linux: fspot will let you crop | 08:10 |
| Archaeopteryx | crdlb: I think I might have figured it out. This is 10.04 and I think he just doesn't even have the dev stuff installed. Should get him up to 2.24! I thought he had 2.12 installed but I was wrong | 08:10 |
| Linux | histo: Thank you very much. I will try to do it using fspot | 08:10 |
| greezmunkey | Linux: check DjVu | 08:10 |
| histo | Linux: i don't see a way to change the jpeg compression options with fspot though | 08:10 |
| histo | Linux: you can use gimp or any of the many photo editors in the software center | 08:11 |
| Linux | ok, i will try gimp | 08:11 |
| histo | Linux: gimp is similiar to photoshop | 08:12 |
| jimtuv | Is it just me or do any other people with Nvidia card have problems with the Nouveau driver?? | 08:12 |
| histo | jimtuv: I did then I installed the nvidia drivers | 08:13 |
| TyanColte | histo: http://s375.photobucket.com/albums/oo197/TyanColte/?action=view¤t=Screenshot-Error.png | 08:13 |
| TyanColte | that's what happens when i take out the sudo from fstab | 08:13 |
| jimtuv | I had to completely unistall nouveau to get my Nvidia to work | 08:13 |
| TyanColte | and try to mount the device | 08:13 |
| TyanColte | and i did create the folder | 08:13 |
| histo | TyanColte: yes root is the only one that can moutn like I said | 08:14 |
| TyanColte | so why did it not mount when i typed mount -a | 08:14 |
| histo | TyanColte: you could sudo mount /dev/sda1 /media/Windows7Drive | 08:14 |
| histo | TyanColte: and it would get mounted | 08:14 |
| yaboo | histo think i nailed the samba problem | 08:14 |
| histo | TyanColte: cuz you would need to sudo mount -a | 08:14 |
| histo | yaboo: what was it firewall or something in config? | 08:15 |
| Linux | histo: I just found fotoxx, i hope this will work | 08:15 |
| airtonix | TyanColte, histo is talking about the commandline now not entries in fstab. | 08:15 |
| yaboo | histo don't think firewall, because windows can find windows shares | 08:15 |
| TyanColte | well that's all well and good but why won't it automount when i start my computer | 08:16 |
| DjAngo23 | hey guys, Got a problem booting since the update to 10.04. First i had the problem : An error occurred while mounting /proc/bus/usb, but that is solbved with /etc/fstab, but now, when Ubuntu is doing the disk check (because the system says : file system still has error) i get the following error : The disk drive for /tmp is not ready yet or not present ? But i can cd to /tmp... Any idea ? | 08:16 |
| histo | TyanColte: try moutning it manually first open a terminal | 08:16 |
| jimtuv | I did some looking around and a search for nouveau brought me to the BinaryDriverHowtoNvidiaNouveau page and the first thing on it is Note: Ubuntu 10:04 will use Nouveau out of the box. {X} WARNING: THE DRIVER IS MOSTLY UNSTABLE. PROCEED AT YOUR OWN RISK. | 08:16 |
| airtonix | TyanColte, where is a pastebin of your /etc/fstab ? | 08:16 |
| yaboo | histo this is my error standard input is not a socket, assuming -D option | 08:16 |
| TyanColte | i did, and it is mounted, but it won't remount when you restart the computer | 08:16 |
| histo | TyanColte: and type in : sudo mount /dev/sda1 /media/Windows7Drive | 08:16 |
| jimtuv | why would they put an unstable driver as default????? | 08:17 |
| histo | TyanColte: okay well maybe the uuid is wrong in fstab then try replacing it with /dev/sda1 instead of UUID=blah | 08:17 |
| TyanColte | http://pastebin.com/YMu4KN1P | 08:17 |
| TyanColte | ok | 08:17 |
| histo | TyanColte: and can you paste bin your final fstab let me see if there are any errors | 08:17 |
| airtonix | TyanColte, you don't have encryption or something exotic turned enabled for the windows7drive ? | 08:17 |

| TyanColte | the same way anybody gets a uuid for a filesystem | 08:18 |
| histo | TyanColte: yea it doesn't look right | 08:18 |
| TyanColte | what's the command for that? | 08:19 |
| histo | TyanColte: | 08:19 |
| histo | TyanColte: Use 'blkid -o value -s UUID' to print the universally unique identifier | 08:19 |
| TyanColte | UUID="6866C5F466C5C354 | 08:20 |
| === Guest49151 is now known as Koobuntoo | ||
| TyanColte | see if it matches with the pastebin | 08:20 |

| TyanColte | UUID="6866C5F466C5C354" | 08:21 |

| Linux | histo: I just changed the size of pic using fotoxx. It is very easy to do. | 08:21 |
| airtonix | histo, TyanColte thats because its reading fstab for hte uuid in this case | 08:21 |

| Koobuntoo | Hello! If I run the "compiz -replace" command, then my kubuntu panels aren't transparent anymore. Someone knows the solution? | 08:22 |
| bp0 | histo, i have the regular version | 08:22 |
| TyanColte | stop what? | 08:22 |
| histo | TyanColte: save it. Then sudo umount /media/Windows7drive. Then sudo mount -a | 08:22 |
| histo | TyanColte: see if it mounts it again. if it does then it will on reboot. but you are definately getting a bad UUID from somewhere. | 08:22 |
| TyanColte | unmount command not found | 08:23 |
| histo | TyanColte: umount not unmount | 08:23 |
| TyanColte | ok, it worked that time | 08:23 |
| TyanColte | not sure why the uuid was the problem but aparently it was | 08:23 |
| airtonix | TyanColte, uuid is supposed to be 5 groups of hexadecimal digits | 08:23 |
| abhifx | hi. plymouth is eating up my resources even after booting up... can someone help me plz | 08:24 |
| TyanColte | ok, one more question | 08:24 |
| histo | TyanColte: yeap wrong uuid. Now try sudo blkid /dev/sda1 | 08:24 |
| TyanColte | same uuid | 08:24 |
| TyanColte | /dev/sda1: UUID="6866C5F466C5C354" TYPE="ntfs" | 08:24 |
| histo | TyanColte: wth I don't know why its given you a bogus uuid then. | 08:24 |
| yaboo | histo: know why i get this message | 08:24 |
| TyanColte | beats me | 08:24 |
| histo | yaboo: what message? | 08:24 |

| bazhang | puma3037, clarify not working | 08:29 |
| rww | bullgard4: You can't. Ubuntu's upgrade tools pull in ubuntu-desktop deliberately, and you thus end up with ubuntu-desktop's packages, including games. | 08:29 |

| Dr_Willis | dwntwn: Perhaps yu have removed the panel applets where it displays itself. Yopu could reset your panels back to defaults | 09:06 |
| Dr_Willis | !resetpanels | 09:06 |

| stone1343 | Can anyone help with this? What's it called when the system starts failing, you see a "no entry" icon in the notification area and when you press the power button, the shutdown dialog comes up with little rectangles where the letters are supposed to be? | 09:09 |

| Jordan_U | MXGamer101: What are you trying to install grub to? (MBR, PBR, MBR with /boot on raid...) | 09:10 |
| MXGamer101 | MBR with /boot on raid | 09:11 |
| guntbert | jamil_1: http://paste.ubuntu.com/429917/ -- a 9.10 system, where I get the option to upgrade | 09:11 |
| MXGamer101 | presumably that i believe | 09:11 |

| MXGamer101 | Hard drives are currently set up as 2x 500gb in Raid0, partition as 900 and 100gb each (100gb holding ubuntustudio), and then a thrd 1tb harddrive that isnt really involved | 09:12 |
| perplexed | G'day - I need some help regarding the following error: | 09:14 |
| damagu | Hello all. Can someone help me with a problem I'm having with my external hard drive? It was working fine but now it's become read only and I don't know how to fix it. | 09:14 |
| Jordan_U | MXGamer101: You can't install grub to a partition if /boot is on raid, it needs to be able to store the core.img in the embedded area between the MBR and first partition. Are you sure you selected the drive (e.g. /dev/sda), and no partitions (e.g. /dev/sda1)? | 09:14 |
| guntbert | !enter | perplexed | 09:14 |
| ubottu | perplexed: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 09:14 |
| === James is now known as Guest14345 | ||
| perplexed | thanks ... the error is fd0 cannot get C/H/S values | 09:15 |
| MXGamer101 | i was not explicitly given an option to define where grub was going, the only time i was given the option with anything related to the hard drives was the partitioning for the installation of the operating system itself | 09:16 |
| Dr_Willis | perplexed: you do have a floppy drive? | 09:16 |
| perplexed | it happens when my win xp system tries to boot | 09:16 |
| perplexed | no - but i do have usb access | 09:16 |
| Jordan_U | MXGamer101: Also, it needs to be RAID over a standard partition table, not partitions over the RAID. | 09:16 |
| Dr_Willis | perplexed: fd0 = floppy disk. check the bios. disable it in bios if you dont have one | 09:16 |
| perplexed | the floppy drive is disconnected | 09:17 |
| Dr_Willis | perplexed: linux boots? but windows has issues? or whats the exact setup? | 09:17 |
| perplexed | i'll have to try that now in BIOS thanks | 09:17 |
| MXGamer101 | ahh i see, so there is no way i can get to this OS as it is setup now? | 09:18 |
| Gadena | :) | 09:18 |
| Dr_Willis | raid has a lot of things to watch out for. | 09:18 |
| perplexed | Dr wills - what happened is i tried to make and install from live cd to usb, but somehow it put some of the linux grub file onto the hdd of my pc | 09:18 |
| damagu | Hey can anyone help me get write privileges for my external hard drive? | 09:18 |
| Dr_Willis | perplexed: yep. when doing an install to USB you MUST tell it on the past dialog of the installer to install grub to the MBR of the usb disk. | 09:19 |
| nocturnus | damagu: how are we supposed to help you?// | 09:19 |
| Dr_Willis | perplexed: plug in the usb, and it boots properly? | 09:19 |
| Dr_Willis | damagu: #1 - tell the channel what filesystem is on the usb drive | 09:20 |
| damagu | nocturnus: I'm using Ubuntu and I had write access and now I don't. I don't know how to get it back and my google searches keep coming with irrelevant results | 09:20 |
| ouyes | hi all , how to add a printer in ubuntu ? | 09:20 |
| perplexed | Dr Willis - no the installed usb (not the live usb disk) it just hangs | 09:20 |
| Jordan_U | MXGamer101: There is no reason I can think of not to use a partition table on the drive itself, do you have a reason? (do you understand what I mean about raid over partitions vs partitions over raid?) | 09:20 |
| damagu | Dr_Willis: FAT | 09:20 |
| Dr_Willis | perplexed: so you want to make a 'bootable full install' to a usb, and have it where with it unplyugged it just boots straight to windows right? | 09:21 |
| nocturnus | damagu: because you're searcing the wrong things, obviously | 09:21 |
| damagu | Ubuntu's disk utility wouldn't let me make it any different. | 09:21 |
| MXGamer101 | would you mind explaining it to me anyways, i may have a poor understanding of it | 09:21 |
| Dr_Willis | damagu: you may want to install/use the 'ntfs-config' tool it has some check box's that enable full access to fat/ntfs fileystems for users | 09:21 |
| Procule | Hello, I'm running 9.10 amd64. I have two video inputs: my tv tuner (video0) and my webcam (video1). The problem is that flash player only sees my video0 (tv tuner). It sees it correctly but I do not have the option to change to the webcam. | 09:21 |
| perplexed | Dr willis - exactly - but now ive messed up my win xp system boot | 09:22 |
| damagu | nocturnus: you aren't very helpful obviously so maybe you should not say anything | 09:22 |
| perplexed | Dr willis any ideas how to reverse the damage? | 09:22 |
| nocturnus | damagu: maybe you should go to hell, because i'm clearly wasting my time offering you help | 09:22 |
| greezmunkey | ouyes: in your browser: http://localhost:631 will get you to CUPS admin, you can add your printer there. | 09:22 |
| Jordan_U | ouyes: With most printers you just plug the printer in and in a few seconds you'll see a message like "Printer foo is now ready to be used". If you don't though, there is a good chance that your printer is completely unsupported :( | 09:22 |
| Dr_Willis | perplexed: to fix windows. You will have to boot some windows cd and use the proper commands to restore the bootloader. the commands vary depending on your windows version. fixmbr/fixboot may be what you need. | 09:22 |
| damagu | nocturnus: I didn't see you offer any help | 09:22 |
| damagu | Dr_Willis: Thanks I'll look into that. | 09:23 |
| nocturnus | you can take that as a retracted offer | 09:23 |
| Dr_Willis | damagu: check out the ntfs-3g docs/guides/howtos for some basic info on how windows filesystems get mounted/accewsed by linux machines also. | 09:23 |
| Dr_Willis | !windows | 09:23 |

| wildbat | do mattrib work on ntsf? i got this error .... while i don't have floppy@@ : http://paste.ubuntu.com/429922/ | 09:26 |
| greezmunkey | ouyes: set up for the ip address:9100 (jet direct) on the networking side, then choose your driver. | 09:27 |
| siomyn | i can't make some call using SIP in there | 09:27 |
| Jordan_U | ouyes: Ahh, I never work with network printers personally, have you tried System > Administration > Printing? | 09:27 |
| Procule | Maybe I could remove the driver for the tv tuner and put the webcam on video0 ? | 09:27 |
| Dr_Willis | Procule: try rmmoding the module and restart the flash app. | 09:27 |
| ouyes | Jordan_U, nothing there | 09:27 |
| DjAngo23 | Can i start the terminal from the live cd (10.04) because i just started directly the option panel "Live CD Session/Install" | 09:27 |

| greezmunkey | ouyes: did you browse to localhost:631 ? | 09:28 |
| ouyes | greezmunkey, yes | 09:28 |
| Jordan_U | ouyes: You selected Add, then Network Printer, then find network printer and Windows printer via SAMBA? | 09:28 |
| greezmunkey | ouyes: select add printer, give it your uname, and pword | 09:28 |
| greezmunkey | ouyes: use appsocket | 09:29 |
| ouyes | Jordan_U, yes now | 09:29 |
| greezmunkey | ouyes: use this form: socket://hostname:9100 | 09:30 |

| siomyn | #empathy | 09:31 |

| greezmunkey | ouyes: socket://{ip address:9100} works well as hostname, if you don't have local dns, you need to make an entry in /etc/hosts to use 'hostname' | 09:32 |
| siomyn | Dr_Willis: any empathy channel ? | 09:33 |
| Dr_Willis | siomyn: i never use the app. so no idea. try #empathy | 09:33 |
| Dr_Willis | siomyn: or check its help menu/docs | 09:33 |
| nocturnus | siomyn: consider compile it yourself | 09:34 |

| ^Lem^ | hi all, running Ubuntu 10.04 desktop x86-64 here. it's very slow to get to my desktop. compiz starts (expo works), but the desktop doesn't load (nautilus, panels) for about 10 seconds. the desktop starting coincides with a read timeout on the floppy drive /dev/fd0. i don't have a floppy. blacklisting the floppy module didn't fix this | 09:37 |

| Jordan_U | MXGamer101: The practical difference is that to be able to boot from the drive you need to create partitions on the drives *before* doing anything with RAID, selecting the whole disk as RAID then partitioning afterward leaves no space for GRUB to safely install itself. | 09:40 |

| MXGamer101 | i see, so in order to get a working install of ubuntustudio i would need to reset my entire setup? | 09:41 |

| e01 | when i close the LID, and open it again, the ubuntu just freezy and had to be restarted | 09:41 |

| ManDay | oh in the dir with the images i take it | 09:50 |
| Dr_Willis | ManDay: in a subdir.. | 09:50 |
| ruby_on_tails | Jordan_U: its being done server side, is there any other tool to do this server side ? | 09:50 |
| Dr_Willis | You can make your own. seen guides on it at omgubuntu and/or webupd8 | 09:50 |
| greezmunkey | ouyes: well, I'm glad I made your life easier. | 09:50 |
| Jordan_U | ruby_on_tails: In fact, wkhtmltopdf itself is available in the repositories. | 09:50 |
| ManDay | Other question: I use audacious with pulse and play mp3 files but sometimes in some files the volume drops and i have a certain noise for a few seconds. this is not replicable by rewinding to the position where it occured - what could be the problem here? | 09:51 |
| ruby_on_tails | Jordan_U: yes I installed it | 09:51 |

| The_ManU_212 | guntbert: no i have only the setting home which i created manually | 09:51 |
| ruby_on_tails | Jordan_U: but its an application that's gonna be hosted. | 09:51 |
| ouyes | greezmunkey, what is the difference between short edge and long edge | 09:51 |
| guntbert | The_ManU_212: you can also try to enable "available for all users" | 09:52 |
| The_ManU_212 | guntbert: i dnt have this option but i have system connection which is greyed out | 09:52 |
| greezmunkey | ouyes: one edge is longer than the other?? | 09:52 |
| Jordan_U | ruby_on_tails: Ahh, you're running into the mentioned "reduced functionality" | 09:53 |
| ruby_on_tails | Jordan_U: didn't get you what's reduced functionality ? | 09:53 |
| guntbert | The_ManU_212: oops - we are talking about different ubuntu versions I guess - what is yours? | 09:53 |
| Jordan_U | ruby_on_tails: python-pisa looks like it may do what you want. | 09:53 |
| Jordan_U | ruby_on_tails: wkhtmltopdf needs a patched version of the QT toolkit to be able to work without X11 running, QT in the repositories does not contain these patches so the wkhtmltopdf in the repos can only be run if you have an X server running (GUI) | 09:55 |

| nocturnus | Jordan_U: why not? | 10:03 |
| atlantica | Durf: ._. | 10:03 |

| MXGamer101 | hey Jordan_U i think i made a mistake. I moved the installation of ubuntu studio to my other hard drive that is not linkedto the RAID but now the system boots directly to UbuntuStudio | 10:17 |
| ruby_on_tails | Jordan_U: is this a normal rule or is this written in the documentation and I missed it ? | 10:17 |
| raviepic3 | what the, since a month nobody answers me for what ever i ask | 10:17 |
| noxi | Thank you for sending me to a page all about grub2, at 4 am I am still not quite getting the problem here. I have been reading online for hours and still nothing has worked. I have never managed a dual boot before but the concept seems simple enough. I still would like maybe a little attention other then a page. Thanks for the read though. | 10:17 |
| aburrabeet | How to upgrade Ubuntu using command line interface? | 10:17 |

| Iowahc | greezmunkey: what do you mean? | 10:17 |
| raviepic3 | Iowahc, thanks for replying, i wanted to install firebug in my firefox it says firefox version not up to date | 10:18 |
| Seveas | atlantica, system -> admin -> hardeware drivers. That tool will find the correct package for you | 10:18 |
| jibadeeha | anyone here managed to get Amazon MP3 downloader to work with Lucid? | 10:18 |
| Iowahc | raviepic3: what version are you using? | 10:18 |
| raviepic3 | so how can i upgrade my firefox up to date ? | 10:18 |
| Dr_Willis | raviepic3: i would guess the extension may be to blame. | 10:18 |
| greezmunkey | Iowahc: exactly what I said, so you got X forwarding to run to one machine? | 10:18 |
| raviepic3 | 3.0.19 | 10:18 |
| dominicdinada | overmind: you wouldnt happen to know anything about Wireless access points via server :) | 10:18 |
| Dr_Willis | raviepic3: it may be seeing a very new version #. as being 'wrong' | 10:18 |
| adapor | will hardware drivers find tv tuner drivers?? | 10:18 |
| atlantica | Seveas: thanks! | 10:18 |
| Iowahc | raviepic3: I would guess too, that the plugin is the problem | 10:18 |

| greezmunkey | Iowahc: I've played with that, it should be do-able. I'm checking some docs I dl'd ... | 10:20 |
| Take0n | What is the font that the new ubuntu logo in lucid uses and where can I find it? | 10:20 |
| Iowahc | greezmunkey: nevermind. have forgot to use the right option -.- | 10:21 |
| Dr_Willis | Take0n: its called 'ubuntu' | 10:21 |

| atlantica | Take0n The font is called Wordmark and it's not available for use. Unfortunately. | 10:21 |
| atlantica | Oh, I read it was called Wordmark | 10:21 |
| raviepic3 | Dr_Willis, i getthis Firebug 1.5.4 could not be installed because it is not compatible with Firefox 3.0.19. | 10:21 |
| Iowahc | raviepic3: then a apt-get upgrade should bring you up with a newer version of firefox i guess, or as Seveas mentioned, update to lucid | 10:21 |
| greezmunkey | Iowahc: yeah, it shold work on a connection to connection basis - allowing multiple sessions. | 10:21 |
| raviepic3 | Seveas, how do i upgrade to lucid ? | 10:21 |
| Take0n | thank you guys =) | 10:22 |
| atlantica | it's a very nice font, though. | 10:22 |

| Iowahc | greezmunkey: yes, works fine :) | 10:22 |
| Dr_Willis | raviepic3: then upgrade youre firefox. | 10:22 |

| daurnimator | anyone care to help with no sound? | 10:31 |
| Appl6 | WormDrink: I use x64, and I don't have many problems. But if you can't come up with a reason for x64, you're almost certain to have fewer problems with x86 (especially with flash!). | 10:32 |
| Mrokii | Appl6: I have tried that, but it is all the same. Even when I use "ps aux" only, I get the message of conflicting format options | 10:32 |
| red2kic | WormDrink: It is possible that some 32-bit binaries does not exist for amd64. Overall, if you're going to use Ubuntu for everyday usage, then you're probably fine with either. | 10:32 |

| Mrokii | Seveas: I have seen there is a line containing "memtest86+" at the end of this output. Though I don't know what that means. | 10:34 |
| cci[RR]us | pls refer here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1476730 | 10:34 |
| cci[RR]us | i'll try to scan the disc now... but i doubt it's the disc fault | 10:35 |
| overmind | Twiztid: Ubuntu is not designed for be quick, but for be easy. You may want Debian or another distro what doesn't use x | 10:35 |
| bushbaby | cci[RR]us: If it's not at least you've removed a possible source of the problem | 10:36 |
| cci[RR]us | i'll try on another pc... brb | 10:36 |
| Twiztid | overmind: k, then i guess my question is, what steps should i take to get ubuntu slimmed up and on speed? | 10:36 |
| bushbaby | cci[RR]us: ok. | 10:36 |
| heroid | red2kic: yes gdm is installed | 10:36 |
| Appl6 | Mrokii: Can you pastebin the output of "echo $SHELL ; which ps ; file `which ps` ; alias", please? | 10:36 |
| musashi | Twiztid, remove processes that you dont need. get rid of gnome and use fluxbox, lxde or xfce. | 10:37 |
| Jordan_U | Twiztid: Unless you have a particularly low spec computer speed is going to depend more on what application you are using to perform a given task than things like gnome vs fluxbox etc. For instance, for word processing Abiword on a standard Ubuntu install will blow away Open Office on even the most bare / optimized configurations. | 10:39 |
| Twiztid | musashi: fluxbox, lxde, xfce all equally fast? or u have a favorite? | 10:39 |
| Mrokii | Appl6: http://pastebin.org/210065 | 10:39 |
| musashi | Twiztid, i prefer lxde | 10:39 |
| Appl6 | Twiztid: If you could "turn up the speed" without any other issues, then distribution maintainers would have done that already. In general, you need to find out how much reliability, compatibility, or features you are willing to lose in order to get the extra speed. | 10:39 |
| overmind | Twiztid: xfce is like gnome. lxde like kde | 10:39 |
| tjingboem | after i log in it takes 30 seconds before i can actually use the system. can i speed up this process? | 10:40 |
| musashi | having said all that, if you install something that needs gnome libs or kde libs, your going to be screwed anyway | 10:40 |
| Giles | hi I upgraded to lucid, I have a splash screen at shutdown but not boot. | 10:41 |
| Appl6 | Mrokii: Haha, you really aliased the hell out of your terminal. That is why you were having issues with "ps aux". To get around that, use "/bin/ps aux". | 10:41 |
| Twiztid | Jordan_U: thank you, i have 1.25gbs ram 2ghz cpu, atix1300 515mb agp video card... i like compiz and cairo dock and am trying to get a good mix of speed and stability no matter how pretty at this point | 10:41 |

| JackStoner | hey i have a problem when i unlock my screen after i enter my password it locks again | 10:41 |
| Diverdude | I have basically 2 harddisks in my laptop. One is partioned into several parts, and one is just one big chunk(called TrayData) They are currently partioned like this : http://imagebin.org/96089 I want to merge sda7,sda3 and sda5 into one big chunk. Currently i am running this ubuntu on the sda7, and sda3 and 5 is not used. Is it possible to merge sda3 and 5 into sda7 which is currently running ubuntu without damaging anything? | 10:41 |
| Appl6 | Mrokii: It's no problem at all. But it can mess up commands that people tell you to use, so if someone gives you a command that breaks, you should show them the result of the "alias" command. | 10:42 |

| Appl6 | Diverdude: The amount of work required to MAYBE get that to work is not at all worth it. You should just move your data off sda3 and sda5, expand sda7, and then move it back. | 10:44 |
| Dr_Willis | Hmm. I dont suppose anyone has gotten the Alien Arena 2010 version working yet? | 10:45 |
| Radim_ | how big is ubuntui install CD? Will be 74 minutes disk enough? | 10:45 |
| === flamekebab_ is now known as Flamekebab | ||
| Appl6 | Diverdude: By "not at all worth it" I mean that it would be a lot of work, and all that filesystem work means there's a fair chance that you will lose some of that data. If you can back it up, then just wipe those partitions and copy it back. | 10:45 |
| Dr_Willis | Radim_: how many mb does that cd say? I was thinking I use 80min cd's - | 10:45 |
| Diverdude | Appl6, okay, and how do i wipe the partiotions? | 10:46 |
| Radim_ | Dr_Willis: 650mb/74 min | 10:46 |
| Dr_Willis | Radim_: mine all say 700mn 80mb | 10:46 |
| Jordan_U | Diverdude: Gparted from a LiveCD | 10:46 |
| Appl6 | Diverdude: Do you have your data backed up? You have to back it up first. | 10:46 |
| Dr_Willis | Radim_: so it might not work | 10:46 |
| jibadeeha | when installing a new version of Ubuntu (e.g. 10.04) is there a way to list my installed software from 9.10 and feed it into 10.04 so i don't have do this manually | 10:46 |
| valentinex | 'net usershare' returned error 255: net usershare add: cannot convert name "Everyone" to a SID. The connection was refused. Maybe smbd is not running. | 10:46 |
| Dr_Willis | oops 80min 700mb | 10:46 |
| Diverdude | Appl6, yes i can copy it to my TrayData harddisk | 10:46 |
| Diverdude | Appl6, that should be okay | 10:47 |
| Jordan_U | Radim_: No, that's not enough for the standard Ubuntu iso, there are other options though. | 10:47 |
| Appl6 | Diverdude: OK, cool. Then what Jordan_U said, use a program called gparted from a liveCD (Ubuntu's liveCD has gparted on it). | 10:47 |
| Jordan_U | jibadeeha: Easiest thing to do is just upgrade. | 10:47 |
| acocman | hello all | 10:47 |
| dstaubsauger | hi, how can i compress 2 directories into one .tar.lzma archive? | 10:47 |
| Diverdude | ok, so i download ubuntu live CD and put it on a CD and boot with it? | 10:48 |
| valentinex | how to run smb? | 10:48 |
| Jordan_U | !clone (don't know if this works between releases) | jibadeeha | 10:48 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 10:48 |
| valentinex | smbd | 10:48 |
| jibadeeha | Jordan_U, okay thanks | 10:48 |
| Appl6 | Diverdude: That's right. If you already have an ubuntu CD you can use that one. | 10:48 |
| Jordan_U | !clone | (don't know if this works between releases) jibadeeha | 10:48 |
| ubottu | (don't know if this works between releases) jibadeeha: To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type « aptitude --display-format '%p' search '?installed!?automatic' > ~/my-packages », move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type « sudo xargs aptitude --schedule-only install < my-packages ; sudo aptitude install » - See also !automate | 10:48 |
| twoshot | test | 10:48 |
| Diverdude | Appl6, i am now running 9.10, does it matter if the livCD is another ubuntu version? | 10:48 |
| jibadeeha | okay will try that | 10:49 |
| Appl6 | Diverdude: Nope, it doesn't matter what version of Ubuntu it is. | 10:49 |
| Giles | how can I diagnose plymouth? | 10:49 |
| Jordan_U | Diverdude: You'll have to upgrade to 10.04 after installing 9.10 though. | 10:49 |
| Appl6 | Mrokii: Are you still there? I don't know what your issue was, or if it was fixed. | 10:49 |
| valentinex | and who will help me about this error message i was trying to share a folder 'net usershare' returned error 255: net usershare add: cannot convert name "Everyone" to a SID. The connection was refused. Maybe smbd is not running. | 10:50 |
| Diverdude | Jordan_U, But i am not going to install 9.10 | 10:50 |
| Diverdude | i just want to merge those partitions into my existing ubuntu disk | 10:51 |
| Jordan_U | Diverdude: What I am saying is that you can only install 9.10 from a 9.10 liveCD | 10:51 |
| valentinex | hehehe sudo smbd | 10:51 |
| Mrokii | Appl6: My issue is that the installer started the upgrade vom 9.10 to 10.04 until he started to install the upgrade. Lots of that went fine, but now it the installer seems to hang. It shows "Unpacking replacement memtest86+ ..." for maybe 20 minutes in the terminal | 10:51 |
| Jordan_U | Diverdude: If you don't mind a really ugly and slightly more complicated installer then try the minimal install CD (the end result is the same as you would get from installing with the standard LiveCD) | 10:52 |
| Twiztid | is xubuntu ubuntu with xfce? | 10:52 |
| Appl6 | Jordan_U: DiverDude is just using another Ubuntu liveCD to use gparted. He's just shuffling partitions around. | 10:52 |
| Diverdude | Appl6, hmm but ok, lets say i can back up sda3 and sda5 no problems...i dont care if data get deleted....But i want to merge them with sda7, which contain my current ubuntu....and i do not want anything to happen to sda7...is that possible? | 10:52 |
| Jordan_U | Diverdude: Sorry, wrong nick (I need to go to sleep:) | 10:52 |
| fredl | what's the Ubuntu way of restarting bluetoothd? | 10:52 |
| Diverdude | Jordan_U, ohh hehe that's ok :) | 10:52 |
| andrea93 | hi, how i can join the italian channel _ | 10:53 |
| Twiztid | Jordan_U: is xubuntu the same as ubuntu with xfce? | 10:53 |
| bazhang | andrea93, /join #ubuntu-it | 10:53 |
| andrea93 | thanks | 10:53 |
| Jordan_U | Radim_: If you don't mind a really ugly and slightly more complicated installer then try the minimal install CD (the end result is the same as you would get from installing with the standard LiveCD) | 10:53 |
| fredl | '/etc/init.d/bluetooth start' doesn't work on ubuntu | 10:53 |
| Jordan_U | Twiztid: It's a different set of default applications also. | 10:54 |
| Diverdude | Appl6, do you know if that may be done? | 10:54 |
| Appl6 | Diverdude: Absolutely. What you will do is this: 1. Backup sda3 and sda5. 2. Boot the liveCD and run gparted. 3. Delete sda3 and sda5. Resize sda7 so that it takes up all the space where sda3 and sda5 used to be. 4. Hit Apply. It will take a while, but when it's done you won't have sda3 or 5 any more, and sda7 will be big. | 10:54 |
| Radim_ | no ubuntu iso image fits on 650MB disk? | 10:54 |
| fredl | 'service bluetooth start' doesn't work | 10:54 |
| Jordan_U | !minimal | Radim_ | 10:54 |
| ubottu | Radim_: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 10:54 |
| Appl6 | Mrokii: One second, let me look around and see if other people have run into your problem before. | 10:54 |
| Mrokii | Appl6: Okay, thanks. | 10:55 |
| Diverdude | Appl6, ahh that is wonderful :) And resize sda7 will not affect the data? | 10:55 |
| bushbaby | fredl: '/etc/init.d/bluetooth restart' should do it | 10:55 |
| hello242424 | hi there | 10:55 |
| Appl6 | Diverdude: I have resized many partitions with gparted and never had a problem, so yes, sda7 SHOULD be fine. However, there's always a chance that something goes wrong, so if you can backup sda7, then do it. | 10:56 |
| hello242424 | i partitioned my hard disk using gparted from ubuntu live cd , then installed windows xp on first partition , but now when i start the ubuntu live cd to install ubuntu , it cant find any partitions and shows whole hard disk as blank | 10:56 |
| hello242424 | what do i do | 10:56 |
| fredl | bushbaby - nope. restart does stop/start. Start doesn't do anything, just says udev should take care of starting up bluetooth | 10:56 |
| hello242424 | but nautilus can browser all partitions very fine | 10:56 |
| Diverdude | Appl6, okay, i will do that...grat..ill just create a liveCD then | 10:56 |
| Twiztid | Jordan_U: hrm, ok but theorettically i can use ubuntu compatable programs with it?, basically get a 'pre-slimmed' ubuntu... xfce faster than gnome but does it support eyecandy? im trying to get compiz running smooth WITH KMS enabled, so I can also use the cario-dock which requires GLX 1.3; compiz only seems to work for me with UMS... =( | 10:57 |
| Diverdude | Appl6, thank you for your advice. | 10:57 |
| Diverdude | Appl6, I hope it is ok if i ask you again later | 10:57 |
| Appl6 | Diverdude: You're welcome. Good luck! And sure, come back when you're done. | 10:57 |
| Jordan_U | Twiztid: Any application you use in one version of Ubuntu can be used in any other, they share the same repositories with just a differet set of default applications | 10:58 |
| ruby_on_tails | on terminal if I pass a command to make me a pdf file, do I have to pass some more commands to close the process ? | 10:58 |

| An_Ony_Moose | when I switch to a TTY and when I'm booting, the screen looks like this http://imagebin.org/96091 . Is the resolution not being set correctly, or is it something else? And how can I fix it? | 10:58 |
| Appl6 | hello242424: When you choose the "Install" option and get to the point where it looks like it's not showing your partitions, choose the "Manually partition my hard drive" entry. That should show you your partitions. | 10:58 |
| ruby_on_tails | because suddenly my script wwas working but now terminal says that failed loading page http://filename.pdf | 10:58 |
| Appl6 | Diverdude: That's right. | 10:59 |

| hello242424 | fdisk -l is showing the partitions fine | 11:00 |
| Jordan_U | ruby_on_tails: What is the exact command being run (you can add "set -x" to the beginning of your script to see what commands are being run) | 11:00 |
| hello242424 | but gparted or ubuntu installer are not able to list my partitions | 11:00 |
| fredl | when I manually do 'hciconfig hci0 up' the interface is in fact brought up | 11:00 |
| ddas4 | hello | 11:01 |
| Appl6 | hello242424: Are all your partitions on one hard drive? | 11:01 |
| hello242424 | yes | 11:01 |
| hello242424 | they all are on 1 hard drive | 11:01 |
| irwan | hi | 11:01 |
| fredl | but when I then try to do anything through bluetooth-applet, bluetoothd crashes and cannot be restarted. | 11:01 |
| hello242424 | and 1 partition has a lot of data | 11:01 |
| bushbaby | fredl: have you looked therough dmesg to see if bluetooth starts correctly and recognises the device after starting up? | 11:01 |
| Twiztid | Jordan_U: awesome thx... whats this i hear about the gallium 3d driver? any good? or whats the best driver for my ati x1300 radeon card;; and lastly, how do i install the xorg edgers? i heard they help performance too...? | 11:01 |

| Appl6 | hello242424: If you could, please pastebin "fdisk -l ; mount -l", and imagebin a screenshot of the installer at the Manual partitioning window. | 11:01 |

| Dr_Willis | robertzaccour: try it and see - i would bnet there would be some issues | 11:06 |
| Appl6 | ddas4: Look at the first few lines of "aptitude show libmoon". What does the "State" line say? | 11:06 |
| fredl | find it hard to believe I'm looking through a thread that's 2 years old on problems with bluetooth and I have exactly the same problems now.... | 11:07 |
| ddas4 | @Appl6: State line says Installed | 11:07 |
| bushbaby | fredl: Searching about a bit for similar issues seems to suggest there's quite a few bluetooth issues regarding Lucid. [ https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bluez/+bug/577185 ] Is that similar? It could be unsolved.. | 11:08 |
| hello242424 | apple6 , i have data on all other partitions which are ext4 , cant loose them | 11:08 |

| Dr_Willis | 'data worth keeping - is data worth backing up' | 11:08 |
| Appl6 | ddas4: It appears to be a known Firefox bug. Try "aptitude remove libmoon" and then try running firefox again. | 11:08 |
| Diverdude | Appl6, does it matter if one of the partions i want to delete is formated in ntfs? can gparted see such a partion? | 11:09 |
| michael1982 | hey all | 11:09 |
| robertzaccour | firefox lags, been using chromium for a couple months now | 11:09 |
| Dr_Willis | Diverdude: gparted can 'see' ntfs partitions. but in order for it to actually do most things to them. You need the ntfs tools package installed. | 11:09 |
| michael1982 | i can't play flight sim without it shutting my comp down help | 11:09 |
| hello242424 | did this happen because i formatted a partition in while installing windows | 11:09 |
| Appl6 | Diverdude: gparted can delete any kind of partition with no problems. You might run into problems if you try resizing the NTFS partition though. | 11:09 |
| technikfreak | does anyone know a good voip software | 11:09 |
| Twiztid | xubuntu still uses grub 2 right? | 11:09 |
| robertzaccour | technikfreak, skype? | 11:09 |

| alieno | hi folks | 11:10 |
| Dr_Willis | michael1982: give the channel more details so they dont have to ask 20+ questions to get to the actual problem.. what game, where, when, how often... | 11:10 |

| hello242424 | Apple6 , any idea | 11:10 |
| Appl6 | hello242424: It looks like some of those partitions are mounted. If the data is still there, you shouldn't have any problems. | 11:10 |
| fredl | bushbaby, seems everybody's suggesting to unstall the blueman, which unfortunately requires to remove gnome-desktop-environmenr :( | 11:10 |

| hello242424 | Appl6 , yes they are mounted and data is there | 11:11 |

| ddas4 | @Appl6: thanks, Removing moonlight worked. Is this a firefox bug or a moonlight one ? It used to work just fine with Karmic --- Lucid created this problem | 11:13 |
| fredl | bushbaby - it seems that a big problem happens because bluetoothd crashes somehow when it's in udev mode | 11:14 |
| Diverdude | Appl6, it returns nothing | 11:14 |
| Appl6 | ddas4: It's a recent firefox bug. See here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/563036 | 11:14 |

| PeterNL | Hi, what versions of fglrx and/or amdccle have working overscan controls forr the HD2600XT? I'm using fglrx (I think 10.2) on Ubuntu 9.04 | 11:16 |
| ddas4 | @Appl6 .. got it. I also do not see ubuntu splash screen when it starts Lucid. Have they removed the splash screen in lucid ? | 11:16 |
| Diverdude | Appl6, what does it mean: "Partition 1 does not end on cylinder boundary." | 11:16 |
| fredl | bushbaby, that happens when I 1) start up bluetoothd -n -d manually, 2) do a manual hciconfig hci0 up and 3) try to connect to a bluetooth device using the bluetooth applet | 11:17 |
| Appl6 | Diverdude: It's a warning that used to matter a long time ago, but it doesn't any more. It's safe to ignore. | 11:17 |

| Appl6 | ddas4: No, there's still a splash screen, but I've heard a lot of people having problems with it, so maybe be happy you don't have it =P. | 11:17 |
| Spasysheep | Appl6: command not found | 11:17 |
| hello242424 | Appl6 what do i do | 11:17 |

| mrfelton | same as describe at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=9256023 | 11:17 |
| Diverdude | Appl6, it says Linux system under sda7 | 11:18 |
| Diverdude | Appl6, so i guess its ok | 11:18 |
| Appl6 | hello242424: The only thing I can suggest right now is that you reboot and try looking at it in gparted again. | 11:18 |
| Appl6 | hello242424: I'll try to find some reasons why gparted can't see it in the mean time. | 11:18 |
| bushbaby | fredl: Are you running x86 or x86_64? | 11:18 |
| hello242424 | i rebooted several times | 11:18 |
| Diverdude | Appl6, ok, brb, need to reboot | 11:18 |
| jozefk | Diverdude, do sudo blkid that will be more clear for you :) | 11:18 |
| Appl6 | Diverdude: OK. | 11:18 |
| hello242424 | but gparted or ubuntu installer cant see the partitions | 11:18 |
| hello242424 | did it happen because i formattted ntfs partition during xp installation ? | 11:18 |

| Guest21909 | I wonder if ubuntu can see installation image file on ntfs...? | 11:19 |
| Appl6 | hello242424: That could have caused it, but if you can mount the partitions and fdisk can see them, then something is messed up with gparted. | 11:19 |

I used to use Linux a long time ago (and ubuntu in 06/07 days), but i'm stuck on why it doesn't recognize my wireless and why it donesn't 'just work'. This is totally why I usually use Windows - what do I have to do to use linux??? | 11:20 |
| Spasysheep | Appl6: df -h runs on my pc, but not the pc i'm trying to recover data on, which is a linux mint livecd | 11:20 |
| bushbaby | fredl: 'uname -a' | 11:20 |
| Dr_Willis | Guest21909: you mean 'can the ubuntu installer install from a ubuntu iso file' ? | 11:20 |
| fredl | bushbaby, Linux boson 2.6.32-22-generic #33-Ubuntu SMP | 11:21 |
| Dr_Willis | agoln: totally depends on the wireless chipset and how well the chipset makers support linux. | 11:21 |
| Guest21909 | yes ,Dr_Willis | 11:21 |
| Appl6 | Spasysheep: Wow. I can't believe there's no df. | 11:21 |
| Dr_Willis | agoln: the last 5 laptops ive put linux on. wireless has worked without me doing anything extra with them | 11:21 |
| agoln | So, as a technical person I understand what this means, but if I were my grandma, she would be clueless | 11:22 |
| Spasysheep | Appl6: how would i obtain it? is there a .deb i can install? | 11:22 |
| Dr_Willis | Guest21909: you can set up grub2 to 'boot' and thus install from an iso file. but thats not quite the same as what you were asking | 11:22 |
| Appl6 | hello242424: No, you don't want to recreate them. I think the problem might be that there's a small overlap. | 11:22 |
| bushbaby | fredl: does it not read x86 or x86_64 in the readout? | 11:22 |
| hello242424 | Appl6 , so what should be done now | 11:22 |
| Guest21909 | grub2 can see img file on ntfs? | 11:22 |
| Appl6 | hello242424: Really, you should backup your data and clean up the partition table. | 11:22 |

| Dr_Willis | agoln: broadcom drivers have been getting a lot of work in differnt areas in the last few releases. But it also depends on the exact ### of the chipset. You may want to check the ubuntu forums for the bcm4312 info. there should be some threads on its setup | 11:29 |

| erUSUL | agoln: many people has already told you what you have to do | 11:32 |
| Appl6 | Spasysheep: Two things I can think of. Either your friend is copying things the wrong way by accident, or your friend is copying things onto the "liveCD" instead of onto the 1 TB drive. If the liveCD runs out of space then things stop working. | 11:33 |
| sillycat98 | had no idea about that | 11:33 |
| Dr_Willis | agoln: that chipset seems to use the (older b43) drivers. or the newer (sta) drivers | 11:33 |
| redha | can you help me i need information for (wine) program | 11:33 |
| erUSUL | agoln: also i told you what you have to blame for the disaster | 11:33 |
| jozefk | datta, :) you are using some firefox add-ons most probably | 11:33 |
| PeterNL | Hi, in what version of fglrx or amdccle do i have working overscan settings? | 11:33 |
| Spasysheep | appl6: hrmmm | 11:33 |
| agoln | yes, read those forums (which I am about to do), but the simple fact is, I downloaded the Ubuntu ISO, installed it, and when it booted, the wireless didn't work | 11:33 |
| Appl6 | Spasysheep: By "copying onto the liveCD" I mean that the liveCD makes a small fake hard drive out of your extra RAM, and it fills up pretty fast. | 11:33 |
| datta | and in epiphany, blogger.com shows a canonical page | 11:33 |
| SalmonSam | agoln, are you able to connect to the "internet" some other way? | 11:33 |
| bazhang | redha, sure; check the appdb and look for help in #winehq | 11:33 |
| erUSUL | agoln: that's entirely broadcom fault | 11:33 |
| bazhang | !appdb | redha | 11:33 |
| ubottu | redha: The Wine Application DB is a database of applications and help for !Windows programs that run under !WINE: http://appdb.winehq.org - Join #winehq for application help | 11:33 |
| datta | sayign that canonical: sorry the request page was not found | 11:33 |
| Guest21909 | agoln,I 'm guest... | 11:33 |
| erUSUL | agoln: do not buy its products | 11:33 |
| Guest21909 | you should get the following cds... | 11:34 |
| === OerHeks is now known as Oer | ||
| erUSUL | !broadcom > agoln | 11:34 |
| ubottu | agoln, please see my private message | 11:34 |
| Guest21909 | not in the first ones | 11:34 |
| redha | thank you | 11:34 |
| bazhang | Guest21909, stay on topic | 11:34 |
| Dr_Willis | agoln: i agree with erUSUL - broadcom has dosent care about Linux, so its basically their fault. | 11:34 |
| Guest21909 | ok | 11:34 |
| Spasysheep | appl6: yea i know, im just trying to confirm what's going on with the copying. seems the external hdd was mounted at two places, which probably didn't help | 11:34 |
| agoln | Broadcom fault? So if I want to buy a laptop... I have to totally research which wireless chipset comes with the laptop before I buy it before I choose which to buy? | 11:34 |
| agoln | How do I know that? | 11:34 |
| Dr_Willis | agoln: if you want to use linux with it - Yes. | 11:34 |
| bazhang | agoln, yes | 11:34 |
| jozefk | agoln, right | 11:34 |
| FardadJalili | agoln: bcm4312 doesn't work out of the box, you have to download the driver yourself and compile it as far as I know. | 11:34 |
| datta | google chrome tells me that there is an ssl error that the site you are trying to readh identifies as shop.canonical.com | 11:34 |
| fredl | agoln - trial and terror | 11:34 |
| Dr_Willis | agoln: I always do such research | 11:34 |
| agoln | Does Dell tell me "IF you want to use Linux, don't buy this laptop? | 11:34 |
| Guest21909 | agoln,follow intel and are**** | 11:35 |
| erUSUL | *plonk* | 11:35 |
| Guest21909 | haha | 11:35 |
| Error403 | how do i connect to my ubuntu machine from my windows machine using SSH but without having to enter a username and password? | 11:35 |
| FardadJalili | agoln: if you have a wired internet access it's really easy to make it work | 11:35 |
| agoln | No, they say "It has 50ghz CPU with 10gb ram, buy this, it's great" | 11:35 |
| datta | really weird problem of which i have no clue on how to proceed | 11:35 |
| Error403 | i know its using pub and priv keys, but not really sure what more? | 11:35 |
| PeterNL | agoln: if you'd ask dell, they might just say that... | 11:35 |
| hello242424 | Appl6 , i think there is something wrong with the partition table , is there a way to generate it | 11:35 |
| agoln | I say "Sweet, it's what I'm looking for" | 11:35 |
| jozefk | FardadJalili, there is a driver available. you can install it from Ubuntu. no need to do anything special. only few clicks | 11:35 |
| sillycat98 | no wireless is bad enough but don't get a vaio, you'll get no video at all with ubuntu | 11:35 |
| agoln | Windows 7 works GREAT | 11:35 |
| michael1982 | how do i add and remove apps | 11:35 |
| hello242424 | how do i recreate or regenerate the partition table | 11:35 |
| Error403 | Ive created the keys on my win machine, what do i do with them on my ubuntu machine? | 11:35 |
| Dr_Willis | agoln: we dont care about windows 7. | 11:35 |
| FardadJalili | jozefk: It didn't work for me | 11:35 |
| jrib | agoln: dell only puts ubuntu on certain laptopts. If a hardware manufacturer refuses to help linux devs, then things aren't going to work as well. So if you want something that works, you should do some research, yes | 11:35 |
| PeterNL | agoln: only if your lucky :D | 11:35 |
| PeterNL | Hi, in what version of fglrx or amdcccle do i have working overscan settings? | 11:35 |
| agoln | Linux says "OMG, BROADCOM WTF DUDDEEEEZZZZZZORR????!?!?!?!?!??!?! NOT FREE, DONT WORK" | 11:35 |
| fredl | agoln - then use Windows 7 | 11:35 |
| jozefk | FardadJalili, for me it worked | 11:36 |
| Dr_Willis | agoln: take ranting to #ubuntu-offtopic | 11:36 |
| datta | does anyone think that this problem might be from my internet provider? | 11:36 |
| Yesso | lol | 11:36 |
| Dr_Willis | agoln: its 'broadcom' saying -> 'linux? who needs you...' | 11:36 |
| agoln | I'm just sayin, people gave me the forum URL for this broadcom driver, I'm greatful - I really do appreciate it | 11:36 |
| fredl | unfortunately broadcom chipsets are in MANY wifi adapters | 11:36 |
| agoln | I forgot about lspci, thanks for bringing it back to memory | 11:36 |
| sillycat98 | i always just plug into the wired on my router and download the driver on my hp laptops >.> | 11:36 |
| jrib | agoln: what you should do is contact broadcom and tell them you want them to support linux | 11:36 |
| Dr_Willis | agoln: take the laptop to someplace where you can plug in a cable.. and i imagine you can get it going in just a few min. | 11:37 |
| john_b | hello - having mouse problems - new install 10.04 mouse loses focus on window right after boot, if I kill X and log back in, its fine till next boot, TIA | 11:37 |
| datta | Dr_Wills: i have created a new account, logged in, tried to go to blogger.com with three different browsers and still the same problem but different results | 11:37 |
| ManDay | How do I make transparency in gnome use FAKE transparency? | 11:37 |
| PeterNL | Hi, in what version of fglrx or amdcccle do i have working overscan settings? | 11:37 |
| Appl3Kork | quick question, the 10.04, if i download through a torrent, is the alternate i386 the 64 bit one? | 11:37 |
| Appl6 | hello242424: Yes, you can do it with parted, but it's dangerous stuff. I really recommend you backup your data first. Also, looking at your fdisk output doesn't show an invalid partition table. | 11:37 |
| fredl | Broadcom essentially sucks NADS | 11:37 |
| Dr_Willis | datta: 3 diffrent browsers - give 3 differnt sites for blogger.com ? | 11:37 |
| sillycat98 | why can't i get runescape hd to work with ubuntu 10.04 i386? | 11:37 |
| adiba | when i have made the update form 9.10 to 10.04 i have had a bug which made the update incomplete what i need an advice should i rollback or i wait to solve the bug | 11:37 |
| adiba | ?? | 11:37 |
| jrib | agoln: as Dr_Willis is saying, to get my macbooks wireless to work, I just use wired internet, click on Hardware Drivers, install the STA driver, and done | 11:37 |
| Dr_Willis | jrib: right 'sta' driver is what he needs i belive. | 11:38 |
| datta | Dr_Wills: actually this gave as now it's changed to the actual blogger page | 11:38 |
| oCean_ | Appl3Kork: no, amd64 is | 11:38 |
| Appl3Kork | so the 64 bit is only for amd processors? | 11:38 |
| datta | Dr_Wills: it's playing hide and seek with me and the problem i think will come back again | 11:38 |
| hosomaki | no | 11:38 |
| Dr_Willis | datta: hmm.. Could be your isp is having some DNS issues/attacks.. | 11:38 |
| michael1982 | wat will i lose if i upgrade | 11:38 |
| jozefk | i installed those STA drives 2 days ago and it works | 11:38 |
| hosomaki | for all 64bit processor | 11:38 |
| jrib | Appl3Kork: no, it works on intel. That's just the name of the architecture | 11:38 |
| PeterNL | datta: Maybe it's a DNS propblem , your ISP's fault. But you can fix it. Google for OpenDNS. | 11:38 |
| agoln | Ok, cool - I will probably go over to the router and plug it in and add the software + more easily find the stuff i need (on other desktop now) | 11:38 |
| theadmin | I have a problem. System sometimes is slow, however after doing a fsck it starts running on normal speed... Well.... | 11:38 |
| Error403 | can anyone help with public and private keys for ssh? | 11:38 |
| oCean_ | Appl3Kork: nope, also for intel | 11:38 |
| theadmin | This happened quite often recently | 11:38 |
| PeterNL | !opendns | datta | 11:38 |
| ubottu | datta: To set up OpenDNS in Ubuntu, see https://www.opendns.com/start?device=ubuntu | 11:39 |
| Appl3Kork | alright thanks | 11:39 |
| theadmin | michael1982: Nothing | 11:39 |
| Dr_Willis | datta: try the opendns servers, or googles dns servers | 11:39 |
| jozefk | https://www.blogger.com/start that's what I'm getting when open blogger.com | 11:39 |
| sillycat98 | why can't i get runescape hd to work with ubuntu 10.04 i386? i have a sony vaio vpccw17fx with a nvidia geforce 210m | 11:39 |
| sillycat98 | and yes i have java installed | 11:39 |
| adiba | due to the bug | 11:39 |
| Dr_Willis | jozefk: mine rerouts to blogger.com/home :) since i was logged in | 11:39 |
| sillycat98 | what bug? o.O | 11:39 |
| Dr_Willis | wow my empty blog.. | 11:39 |
| Appl6 | hello242424: OH! fdisk said it was omitting the empty partition sda4. Maybe that's your problem, and you might try to delete it using parted. But it's still dangerous, so please back up your data! | 11:39 |
| jozefk | i don;t use blogger.. :) | 11:40 |
| datta | PeterNL I will give this a shot but as i had not experienced these problems before, will takes some time | 11:40 |
| datta | jozefk: this is supposed to redirect to that site of theirs' | 11:40 |
| adiba | i can't remove or add pkg and i can't update the ditro | 11:40 |
| hyperstream | How do i go about getting my Asus WL-BTD202 Bluetooth USB working? | 11:40 |
| jozefk | datta, open it directly why not? | 11:40 |
| agoln | I'm sorry to bring up a flame war, partially my fault for saying some things I did, but thanks for the info (that really is why I came in here, i'd rather spend 5 minutes asking than spend an hour seacrching google), I'm headed over to the other room of the house to try and get this going (the information on this forum page seems to be what I need). | 11:40 |
| hyperstream | i have the bluez + utils installed | 11:40 |
| michael1982 | so i won't lose anything' | 11:40 |
| datta | jozefk: open what directly? | 11:41 |
| hyperstream | I get this error in dmesg: [187636.404038] usb 4-2: device not accepting address 27, error -71 | 11:41 |
| jozefk | the redirected page | 11:41 |
| theadmin | michael1982: Unless it breaks something. It's not highly probable, though | 11:41 |
| bushbaby | adiba: How did you do the update? LiveCD or through update-manager? | 11:41 |
| gorski | is it secure to install ati run graphic driver from amd.com? | 11:41 |
| michael1982 | ok ill upgrade | 11:41 |
| igoryon | hello, when I do: wget -c --header="Content-length: 4700000\n" http://membres.multimania.fr/adrislayer/terrelune.png | 11:41 |
| igoryon | (I tried \n\n also) It says: ERROR 413: Request Entity Too Large. | 11:41 |
| igoryon | When I do: wget -c --header="Content-length: 4700000" http://membres.multimania.fr/adrislayer/terrelune.png | 11:41 |
| igoryon | It says: 400 Bad Request | 11:41 |
| igoryon | The reason, I have to add this header is because, the server with this image doesn't provide Content-Length header, and download always breaks at different places in the middle, showing 100% downloaded, but I know that the download is incomplete, but the actual image on the server is complete. | 11:41 |
| FloodBot1 | igoryon: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 11:41 |
| hello242424 | Appl6 , ok how do i delete that partition | 11:41 |
| adiba | trough the update manager | 11:42 |
| Dr_Willis | gorski: using the driver/installer from amd's site.. can often fail badly | 11:42 |
| arand | gorski: likely more convenient to use the built-in manager. | 11:42 |
| Dr_Willis | gorski: its best to use the ones in the package manager | 11:42 |
| Xethron | Hey, I have a really old PC and I was wondering if it would be a good idea to install Ubuntu onto it. I am currently running the live CD but its really slow. I dont know where to check for specs, but its roughly a AMD Duron 900MHz with just above 300mb ram, and 10 GB HDD space | 11:42 |
| Dr_Willis | Xethron: more ram is always better.. but that system should work. | 11:42 |
| JackStoner | Xethron: maybe try xubuntu | 11:42 |
| Dr_Willis | Xethron: you might want to check out lubuntu, or xubuntu | 11:42 |
| theadmin | Xethron: Don't expect live CD to ever be quick. It'd work but slow. Try lubuntu or xubuntu. | 11:43 |
| gorski | Dr_Willis: but i get no 3d acceleration with package manager drivers. | 11:43 |
| bushbaby | adiba: There have been quiote a few issues i know of where upgrading via update-manager has caused errors. I would have said the easiest option is to roll back and use a LiveCD if possible | 11:43 |
| hyperstream | !bluetooth | 11:43 |
| ubottu | For instructions on how to set up bluetooth, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup | 11:43 |
| Dr_Willis | gorski: ati has dropped support for many of their older cards. the ones from ati.com wont give them 3d either. | 11:43 |
| igoryon | Xethron: LiveCD is slow by itself, not because of a slow computer, but because of slow read from CD/DVD | 11:43 |
| Appl6 | hello242424: Use parted, and inside that use "rm". "man parted" for details. | 11:43 |
| adiba | i got to use which live CD of 10.04 or 9.04 | 11:44 |
| theadmin | Appl6: Don't mess people up | 11:44 |
| Xethron | I can install Ubuntu and install the xfe pacages later to make it Xubuntu right? | 11:44 |
| adiba | sorry 9.10 | 11:44 |
| gorski | Dr_Willis: if i install driver from amd, how can i recover if it fails, please? | 11:44 |
| theadmin | hello242424: Try GParted instead, it's simplier | 11:44 |
| theadmin | Xethron: Yes. | 11:44 |
| Xethron | Because I dont really have the internet to download abother CD... hehe | 11:44 |
| JackStoner | Xethron: why go through the trouble?? | 11:44 |
| overmind | Xethron: And xubuntu-desktop package | 11:44 |
| hello242424 | Appl6 , I have windows working on the first partition , would you suggest that i copy all data into the windows partition and then from windows i use some partition tool to recreate the partitions and comeback to the live cd ? | 11:44 |
| Appl6 | theadmin: GParted isn't showing anything because the partition table is messed up. | 11:44 |
| overmind | Xethron: So you'll have xfce programms | 11:44 |
| bushbaby | adiba: What are you trying to upgrade to? and what from? 9.10 -> 10.04 ?? | 11:44 |
| theadmin | Appl6: ...oh. | 11:44 |
| igoryon | Xethron: if you don't use compiz, etc., the computer should run ok | 11:44 |
| arand | Xethron: xubuntu will likely fail, lubuntu, slitaz, puppy, might be an option (chrunchbang?) | 11:44 |
| johnwilliam | hey guys i've some problems with installing the nvidia driver on my kubuntu 10.04 | 11:45 |
| Appl6 | theadmin: We're trying to fix up the partition table. I also told him several times to backup because it's dangerous. | 11:45 |
| johnwilliam | http://forums.nvidia.com/index.php?showtopic=168090&pid=1051956&st=0&#entry1051956 | 11:45 |
| adiba | yes | 11:45 |
| adiba | from 9.10 to 10.04 | 11:45 |
| theadmin | arand: Xubuntu _should_ work on that machine... crunchbang is pretty meh. | 11:45 |
| hellyeah | hey | 11:45 |

| erUSUL | zhxk: midori ? | 11:46 |
| hellyeah | i need help on opengl | 11:46 |
| Appl6 | hello242424: If you have an external hard drive or something that would be the best. The problem is that anything on that hard drive has a chance of getting lost when you mess with its partition table. | 11:46 |
| icarus-c | johnwilliam, coz it overwrite certain system component. things will likely break after update/changing graphics card | 11:46 |
| zhxk | i would like a browser be fit on arm based system | 11:46 |
| icarus-c | johnwilliam, there is a ubuntu package for it | 11:46 |
| johnwilliam | well, im using a notebook, so i wont change my graphic card | 11:46 |
| adiba | bushbaby: how to roll back plz ?? | 11:46 |
| johnwilliam | ok thx i'll check this out htx | 11:46 |

| Appl6 | mrokii: Sorry for taking so long. I can't find anyone who had the same problem. Is the update still hung? | 11:47 |
| Dr_Willis | zhxk: try chrome or its variants it claims to be light | 11:47 |
| datta | well, the problem is grave as i tried the same with a laptop which uses the wireless network of the same ISP provider | 11:47 |

| TheAwesomeGuy | but i just get a message telling me it needs more random bytes | 11:48 |
| Dr_Willis | datta: try a live cd.. if it also has the issue.. then it has to be an isp isssue.. Unless your router is using some hacked dns. | 11:48 |

| TheAwesomeGuy | is that not possible? | 11:48 |
| Appl6 | xukun: This link has some good information about ionice and what it does. I think it's what you're looking for: http://friedcpu.wordpress.com/2007/07/17/why-arent-you-using-ionice-yet/ | 11:48 |
| Xethron | igoryon, I dont really want compiz or anything to work. Just want a PC where they can use Internet, (Facebook and Gmail), work on documents and spreadsheets... Nothing fancy | 11:48 |
| Mrokii | Appl6: It was, but I forced it to quit. I tried to repair things with apt-get, but now it hangs whenever it tries to run"update-grub" :( | 11:49 |
| bushbaby | adiba: It seems there's no direct rollback functionality. (Correct me anyone if i'm wrong here!) The only thing i can suggest is back up all your files and do a clean install from a 10.04 liveCD. | 11:49 |
| TheAwesomeGuy | Because my only accessible Ubuntu machine is a VPS | 11:49 |
| theadmin | TheAwesomeGuy: Welp, uh, just type some random stuff around then | 11:49 |

| TheAwesomeGuy | Through SSH] | 11:49 |

| Dandre1 | is there some easy configuration tool for xorg in lucid? | 11:57 |
| Appl6 | zhxk: theadmin quit, and I gave you the "find" command. Did it return anything? | 11:57 |
| Appl6 | Mrokii: Yikes, stubborn package. Let me take a look. | 11:57 |
| Dandre1 | since my upgrade to my second monitor is scrambled | 11:57 |
| zhxk | Appl6:find command? | 11:58 |
| Appl6 | zhxk: (06:54:26 AM) Appl6: zhxk: Try "find /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.32-22-generic" at the prompt. | 11:58 |
| greezmunkey | erUSUL: (et.al) Next question: I did an update, I see now comparing uname -a here vs. a machine that I did a clean install on, that I am on 2.6.31-14-generic #48 instead of 2.6.32-22-generic #33 - Can I use grub-legacy to boot into the new kernel? (If you didn't know, the last linux bootloader I delt with was lilo) | 11:58 |
| zhxk | Appl6:i just installed ubuntu-10.4 | 11:59 |
| Appl6 | greezmunkey: Yes, the old version of grub will boot into that new kernel just fine. | 11:59 |
| erUSUL | greezmunkey: if you did an upgrade make sure you have linux-image installed... « sudo aptitude install linux-image » | 11:59 |
| Appl6 | zhxk: OK, I thought you were at a grub prompt? | 11:59 |
| zhxk | it is | 12:00 |
| greezmunkey | Appl6: Sweet, erUSUL a quick apt-cache search should show that (if it's here) right? | 12:00 |
| ouyes | HI ALL | 12:00 |
| erUSUL | greezmunkey: yes | 12:00 |
| Appl6 | zhxk: Then enter the command I gave you at that grub prompt, and tell me what the output is. | 12:00 |
| greezmunkey | erUSUL: Doing that now... | 12:00 |
| ouyes | when i try to name a fold as ASM, but it change to asm lower case automatically | 12:00 |

| === flossk is now known as gent_flossk\ | ||

| erUSUL | ouyes: fat partitions are case insensitive. there is nodifferences beween ASM and asm. linux chooses to show asm | 12:02 |
| Appl6 | Mrokii: Can you try just "sudo aptitude", then hit capital U to mark all upgrades, then hit "g" to start applying them. Then move around with the arrow keys to move to the memtest86+ package and hit "-" (minus) to deselect it. Then hit "g" again to start the upgrade. | 12:02 |
| greezmunkey | erUSUL: (et.al) this is what I have: http://paste.ubuntu.com/429983/ | 12:02 |
| Appl6 | zhxk: OK, try "find /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.32-21-generic". Notice I changed the 22 to a 21. | 12:02 |
| ouyes | erUSUL, ou ...... i do not like this | 12:02 |

| === Robertf_ is now known as RobertF | ||
| Appl6 | zhxk: How about "find /boot/vmlinuz" | 12:04 |
| ouyes | erUSUL, i named as ASM but the system change to asm , i can not do what i like | 12:04 |
| mapmap42 | Appl6: crap, thanks | 12:04 |
| Xethron | Sorry for the caps But its really important that that partition does NOT fail. :P | 12:04 |
| zhxk | Appl6:i do ls /boot/ it print "L0Eo" | 12:04 |
| Dr_Willis | Xethron: back things up...... thats the GOLDEN RULE. | 12:04 |
| erUSUL | greezmunkey: as i said to make sure you have the last kernel revision in any ubuntu install make user you have linux-image and/or linux-image-generic installed | 12:04 |
| Dr_Willis | Xethron: that hd could die at ANY time.. reguardless of what you are planing. | 12:04 |
| Xethron | Hmm... ok :/ | 12:04 |
| erUSUL | ouyes: again: fat partitions are case *insensitive. there is no differences between ASM and asm | 12:05 |
| zhxk | Error 15: File not found | 12:05 |
| Dr_Willis | Xethron: even if you were not going to use linux at all.. if its DEADLY impornat mp3 collection.. then BACK IT UP | 12:05 |
| Mrokii | Appl6: I will try that, one moment... | 12:05 |
| erUSUL | ouyes: again: fat partitions are case *insensitive*. there is *no* *differences* between ASM and asm they are stored the same way | 12:05 |
| Dr_Willis | Xethron: and yes ive had good hard drives 'die' at a moments notice. | 12:05 |
| greezmunkey | erUSUL: One of *many* entries: linux-image-2.6.32-22-generic - Linux kernel image for version 2.6.32 on x86/x86_64 | 12:05 |
| ouyes | erUSUL, you do not get the point, i want it show ASM instead of asm | 12:05 |
| greezmunkey | erUSUL: I think I'm good so far... | 12:06 |
| erUSUL | ouyes: so what you see when you do an ls or use nautilus is just a convention. in linux is default to lowercase. DOS desfaults to uppercase | 12:06 |
| ouyes | erUSUL, it can show Python but not ASM | 12:06 |
| zhxk | Appl6:can i load the kernel manually? | 12:06 |
| Appl6 | zhxk: Yes, you can, but you have to know the file name. That's what the "find" command were for. | 12:06 |

| zhxk | where best ask about grub questions? | 12:19 |
| Appl6 | greezmunkey: Haha. Yes, it's normal for Ubuntu to keep a backup kernel, for that reason. Though usually it will install the new one and keep the old one around. You can check with "ls /boot". | 12:19 |
| gbsun | this is the only method , how can i resolve this problem | 12:19 |
| rsc- | gbsun: that looks like a really big repo, you may need a good connection to download all the data from it | 12:19 |
| rsc- | gbsun: you can download it instead from the github page maybe | 12:19 |

| Appl6 | zhxk: Yeah, you can install from a flash drive, or from inside Windows with wubi. | 12:22 |
| greezmunkey | Appl6: So that's the piece I'm missing, SO it goes like this: Safe upgrade gets you all the code, configures the system for the latest kernel, then you manually make the new kernel, and configure grub to boot it??? | 12:22 |
| zhxk | Appl6:wrong url? | 12:22 |

| Appl6 | Mrokii: You're right, that does sound bad. Can you "df -h" to make sure you have free disk space? | 12:24 |
| Necrosporus | I would like more secure login requiring input of both username and password | 12:25 |
| Dr_Willis | Necrosporus: dozens of ubuntu tweaking tools let you chantge that easially, ubuntu-tweak is one (i think) another is gdm2setup --> http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2010/02/change-gdm-login-screen-background-in.html | 12:25 |
| Mrokii | Appl6: More than enough still free | 12:25 |
| hmw | Necrosporus: boot to text mode (aka "console"): sudo apt-get install sysv-rc-conf then sysv-rc-conf and deselect the X in column 2 for "gdm" | 12:25 |
| macno | I got problem with Lucid and my new Sony laptop: no audio at all. This is lspci output http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/429993/ | 12:25 |
| greezmunkey | Appl6: I agree that seems to be what should have happened, but explain this: 2.6.31-14-generic #48-Ubuntu SMP Fri Oct 16 | 12:25 |
| ManDay | Are there certain propritary drivers (for example for Realtek HD) that you should usually get? Or are the normal Drivers that are shipped with Ubuntu usually good enough? Does anyone here use different drivers? | 12:25 |
| greezmunkey | Appl6: Hehe | 12:25 |
| Appl6 | Mrokii: Also, do mount -l to see if your root file system is read only. (you should see a (ro) at the end of the line if it is ReadOnly, or (rw) for ReadWrite). | 12:25 |
| Dr_Willis | ManDay: totally depends on the actual hardware. On the last 3 laptops.. they have been 100% ubuntu preinstalled drivers. | 12:25 |
| Dr_Willis | ManDay: a few others need wireless extras.. and one needed a wireless + video drivers. | 12:26 |
| ManDay | wireless? | 12:26 |
| hmw | 2 identical monitors, 2 intel GPUs: 82865G and 82915G/GV/910GL, one can 1600x1200, the other causes weird colors, even with 50 Hz. Switched monitors, same effect. I don't understand, how the GPU can be the cause of weird colors on the same resolution/freq. Can you explain that? What can I do? | 12:26 |
| zhxk | Appl6:i guess its grub4dos dont support ex4 | 12:26 |
| emghazal | On Karmic, I used to be able to drag a window to the side of the screen, and it would automatically switch to the next workspace. Now it doesn | 12:26 |
| ManDay | Dr_Willis, my problem is that certain mp3s play wiht cracks and noise and i dont know why | 12:26 |
| Dr_Willis | ManDay: ive rarely seen extra drivers for much else then wireless and video. | 12:26 |
| ManDay | the diles are ok | 12:26 |
| Appl6 | greezmunkey: 2.6.31 is the kernel version. 14 is 14th Ubuntu specific patch applied to the kernel. SMP is a compilation option for the kernel. I don't know what 48 is for. | 12:26 |
| ManDay | *files | 12:26 |
| Dr_Willis | ManDay: bugs in the alsa drivers for that soud chipset perhaps. | 12:26 |
| gorski | where do i edit grub? | 12:27 |
| ManDay | Dr_Willis, its a realtek HD - pretty common if you ask me | 12:27 |
| Appl6 | greezmunkey: But I'm still not sure what you're asking. Can you boot into Ubuntu? What problems are you having? | 12:27 |
| emghazal | On Karmic, I used to be able to drag a window to the side of the screen, and it would automatically switch to the next workspace. Now it doesn't work and I can't find the option to enable it. (and sorry for the chopped off message) | 12:27 |
| ManDay | Dr_Willis, pulse uses alsa, right? | 12:27 |
| Mrokii | Appl6: It says "rw" only on all entries. Though there is a warning at the end, saying that "etc/mtab" is not writeable and the it's possible that the infor is not up to date. | 12:27 |
| hmw | !grub2 | gorski | 12:27 |
| ubottu | gorski: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 | 12:27 |
| Dr_Willis | ManDay: Pulse runs on top of alsa - right | 12:27 |
| zhxk | Appl6:i would like install another bootloder on (hd0,6) | 12:27 |
| Mrokii | Appl6: It says that I should check the "/proc/mounts"-file for more actual information. | 12:27 |
| DiverDude | Appl6, hey there. Do you have a moment_ | 12:28 |
| Appl6 | DiverDude: Hey, um I'm working with other people but sure, go ahead, what's the deal | 12:28 |
| ManDay | Dr_Willis, what does pulse do to the stream that alsa doesnt? if i select alsa output plugin in audacious the sounds is horrible with pulse tho its ok (apart from the cracks and noise in certain files as mentioned9 | 12:28 |
| Appl6 | Mrokii: You can "cat /proc/mounts" then. | 12:28 |
| greezmunkey | Appl6: It's all good - I am comparing this system to one right next to it. The other runs on 2.6.32.22-generic, this one is on 2.6.31-14-generic after doing the same update... | 12:28 |
| Dr_Willis | pulse lets you do other 'tricks' with the sound stream and system. I can make the pc here play its output to other pc's on the lan. using features of pulse. | 12:29 |
| Appl6 | greezmunkey: Both Ubuntu? It almost sounds like one of them isn't pulling from the lucid repositories. | 12:29 |
| Dr_Willis | ManDay: or i could use anohter pc's mic as input on this pc :) | 12:29 |
| Machisuji | Hey, I just upgraded to 10.4 two days ago. But I still don't like the "blackness". Actually I liked the brownish gray from before better. Can I somehow change that? I can only find options to change the windows and stuff, but not the "system color?" which is black. | 12:29 |
| Appl6 | greezmunkey: Either that or one didn't survive the upgrade process too well. | 12:29 |
| jrib | Machisuji: system -> preferences -> appearance | 12:29 |
| Mrokii | Appl6: There is one entry with "ro" in it: "/dev/disk/by-uuid/84da43ad-833c-4e7d-9c67-b742098b668a / reiserfs ro,relatime,notail 0 0" | 12:29 |
| ManDay | Dr_Willis, ok thanks for the info. if you can think of any solution to my problem with the cracks let me kniow pplesae | 12:29 |
| domjohnson | are trackballs any good for video editing and audio production? | 12:30 |
| zhxk | Appl6:how can i list partitions on grub console? | 12:30 |
| greezmunkey | Appl6: I'm just trying to understand why - That's possible. This one is an upgrade, the other one is a clean install :) | 12:30 |
| Dr_Willis | ManDay: no idea on that. check the forums. or try other media player | 12:30 |
| DiverDude | Appl6, When i try to delete one of the partitions in gparted which i started from the liveCD *im on the live cd now* i get the error: Unable to delete /dev/sda5 Please unmount any logical partitions having a number higher than 5 | 12:30 |
| SirRedTooth | Is it possible to remove options from the grub console?? | 12:30 |
| zhxk | how can i list partitions on grub console? | 12:30 |
| Dr_Willis | domjohnson: i dont find them very good for a lot of tasks... | 12:30 |
| Dr_Willis | domjohnson: but try them and see. | 12:30 |
| jrib | DiverDude: did you do what it tells you to? | 12:30 |
| zhxk | how can i list partitions on grub console? | 12:30 |
| Necrosporus | Dr_Willis, gdm2setup: command not found, ubuntu-tweak: command not found; gdmsetup exists, but doesn't allow me to do this | 12:31 |
| ManDay | Dr_Willis, it took me a year to settle on audacious because i hate all other audio players for either how bloated they are or that they have neither a tray nor an equalizer - I WILL NOT ABANDON audacious :) | 12:31 |
| jrib | zhxk: ls? | 12:31 |
| greezmunkey | Appl6: That (what you said) could explain some wierd error messeges I get on boot. The system still seems to run alright though. | 12:31 |
| DiverDude | jrib hmm so i need to unmount everything? | 12:31 |
| Dr_Willis | Necrosporus: go read the url i gave.. and INSTALL gdm2setup. or go search/install ubuntu-tweak | 12:31 |
| Appl6 | zhxk: I'm not sure how to do that, sorry. | 12:31 |
| jrib | DiverDude: sure, why not? | 12:31 |
| * Dr_Willis buys ManDay a radio | 12:31 | |
| Necrosporus | Dr_Willis, I don't have internet on ubuntu machine | 12:31 |
| greezmunkey | Dr_Willis: ;) | 12:31 |
| Necrosporus | So I can't install anything yet | 12:32 |
| ManDay | Dr_Willis, wow, havent had such a thing for 20 years now i think. | 12:32 |
| DiverDude | jrib yes ok....what is the easiest way to unmount? | 12:32 |
| Necrosporus | How to do this with tools from default install? | 12:32 |
| blackratdog | how can i repair my corrupted usb flash drive persistent installation? | 12:32 |
| jrib | DiverDude: using umount | 12:32 |
| emghazal | On Karmic, I used to be able to drag a window to the side of the screen, and it would automatically switch to the next workspace, but it doesn't work on Lucid. Where can I find the option to enable it? | 12:32 |
| jrib | DiverDude: I think gparted might have some gui option for unmounting too | 12:32 |
| Dr_Willis | ManDay: look at the new 'chumbly one' --> http://www.chumby.com/pages/compare | 12:32 |
| Machisuji | jrib: I can only change window colors there if I'm not missing something here. But I want to the black of the menu bar(s) to go away. | 12:33 |
| zhxk | jrib:ls not supported on grub4linux | 12:33 |
| Appl6 | Mrokii: Oh dear, I'm sorry. That's your root partition (the second field is root), and usually the only reason your root partition gets remounted read only is when it detects file system corruption. Back up time, if you have a way to do it. | 12:33 |
| om26er | updating kernel on a persistent flash will be useless? | 12:33 |
| Necrosporus | Slackware seems much easier to use for me: it doesn't require me to install anything, I can configure my system with only vim /etc/something | 12:33 |
| Mrokii | Appl6: I have a recent backup of all my HD | 12:33 |
| Appl6 | DiverDude: Can you show me the output of "mount -l" (mount dash ell)? | 12:33 |
| Dr_Willis | Necrosporus: i tend to use vim to configure most things on ubuntu.. go use what you want I guess.. | 12:33 |
| Necrosporus | It's not windows to install tweakers | 12:33 |
| anonymouse_ | !ccsm | anonymouse_ | 12:33 |
| jrib | zhxk: what version of ubuntu is this? | 12:33 |
| ubottu | anonymouse_, please see my private message | 12:33 |
| Machisuji | jrib: There isn't even black selected in any of the available color pickers (except for text). | 12:33 |
| Dr_Willis | Necrosporus: i had other issues with slackware | 12:33 |
| jrib | Machisuji: you can choose a different theme | 12:33 |
| Dr_Willis | Necrosporus: the gdm config files are editable by hand.. but i dont bother. | 12:33 |
| Necrosporus | So gedit /etc/gdm.conf? | 12:34 |
| ManDay | Dr_Willis, wut? | 12:34 |
| Dr_Willis | Necrosporus: research the config files.. ubuntu and slackware do NOT use the same versions of GDM. so it may differ greately | 12:34 |
| Mrokii | Appl6: So... that means I should do a clean install of 10.04? :/ | 12:34 |
| zhxk | jrib:10.04 | 12:34 |
| Machisuji | Well I like the theme apart from the black part so I clicked "change theme" or however it is labelled in English. But it doesn't help. | 12:34 |
| zhxk | jrib:i do apt-get grub | 12:34 |
| Dr_Willis | ManDay: it has a radio. and its a mini pc. :) it can even work as a wireless access point for your 3g network with some tweaking. | 12:34 |
| Machisuji | jrib: Well I like the theme apart from the black part so I clicked "change theme" or however it is labelled in English. But it doesn't help. | 12:34 |
| jrib | Machisuji: then edit the theme I guess | 12:35 |
| DiverDude | Appl6, here is that output: http://pastebin.com/Kqt4Mumt | 12:35 |
| ManDay | Dr_Willis, i absolutly need that </sarcasm> | 12:35 |
| Dr_Willis | ManDay: i am goign to get one soon., when the wife lets me. :) | 12:35 |
| hmw | I can use 1600x1200 only rarely, because the mode is not "available" most of the time. I had a power outage, rebooted and suddenly it worked. Rebooted again, and still only 1280. Any ideas what's going on? | 12:35 |
| Dr_Willis | ManDay: but as soon as i get it.. she will steal it. | 12:35 |
| Appl6 | Mrokii: If it's not too inconvenient, I think that would be a good idea. If not, you should reboot, because with readonly root nothing is really going to happen. | 12:35 |
| cater | hi. is there a filesystem suitable for shared media access, that doesn not require any complex cluster setup and daemons running? | 12:36 |
| ManDay | Dr_Willis, forgive me but what is the advantage of that thing over a laptop? | 12:36 |
| ManDay | is it outdoor safe or something ? | 12:36 |
| Appl6 | DiverDude: Can you try to delete the partition again? | 12:36 |
| Dr_Willis | ManDay: its a suped up clock radio | 12:36 |
| cater | i'd like to mount a disk via iscsi on multiple hosts simultaneously | 12:36 |
| Machisuji | jrib: Ok thanks. I just thought you can change certain colors of a theme (besides the window colors). i'm gonna have to pick another one then. | 12:36 |
| jrib | zhxk: why are you at this grub console? | 12:36 |
| Dr_Willis | ManDay: You sit it on your desk and let it run. :) | 12:36 |
| cater | however i need raw disk access on all hosts | 12:36 |
| jrib | Machisuji: editing the theme is not difficult, just copy it from /usr/share/themes/ to ~/.themes and make your changes | 12:37 |
| ManDay | Dr_Willis, ok, and the advantage over a laptop is... what exactly (not trying to spoil that i just dont get it)?! | 12:37 |
| Mrokii | Appl6: but are you sure that this is the root-partition? I mean, there are other entries in that file, all with "rw". And only one is marked with "ro" | 12:37 |
| DiverDude | Appl6, i managed to delete sda3 now | 12:37 |
| Appl6 | DiverDude: Great. | 12:37 |
| DiverDude | Appl6, but not sda5 | 12:37 |
| Dr_Willis | ManDay: its a supped up clockradio/electric picture frame that you set up how you want. turn it on.. install the widgits you want.. and there it is. | 12:38 |
| Appl6 | Mrokii: The first column is the device, the second is where it's mounted. | 12:38 |
| DiverDude | Appl6, i keep getting this error | 12:38 |
| DiverDude | Appl6, which i showed before | 12:38 |
| Appl6 | DiverDude: Oh, well the error said to make sure you unmounted stuff, but it is already unmounted. | 12:38 |
| Mrokii | Appl6: I see :( | 12:38 |
| Appl6 | DiverDude: So the error doesn't make sense. | 12:38 |
| Appl6 | DiverDude: Let me see if I can find some information about it. | 12:38 |
| Machisuji | jrib: Ah I see, thank you! | 12:39 |
| ManDay | Dr_Willis, hm okay, make sure to send me a photo once you have that thing sitting on your desk. i kinda cant imagine | 12:39 |
| Mrokii | Appl6: Might be a stupid question, but I guess there is no way to "re-mount" it? | 12:39 |
| DiverDude | Appl6, but i think it looks really strange actually the way the partitions is organized. In gparted it seems that sda5 is a subpartion to sda4 | 12:39 |
| malikkite | hi... I need help on upgrading 8.04 to 10.04... the first - i get the flashplugins-nonfree error the second - the installation doesn´t finish... the counter arrives to the end but pc doesn´t restart and if i do the grub menu is the old one but the boot sequence is not recognized... someone can help me? | 12:39 |
| Xethron | Can anyone help me with the install of Ubuntu... I have a 20 GB drive split into two partitions. Windows is on the one and my backups on the other. Ubuntu wants to eather use the entire disk, or install it next to windows. I want it to use the entire Windows partition. How do I do that? | 12:39 |
| DiverDude | Appl6, may i show you a screendump_ | 12:39 |
| Appl6 | DiverDude: Sure, that would be helpful. | 12:39 |
| hmw | Xethron: select "manual" | 12:40 |
| hmw | Xethron: and assign the partition as ext4 with mount point "/" | 12:40 |
| Appl6 | Mrokii: Yes, you can remount it. mount -o remount,rw / | 12:40 |
| DiverDude | Appl6, ok, here it is: http://imagebin.org/96097 | 12:40 |
| Appl6 | Mrokii: I just figured (with no real evidence) that rebooting would be a "fresh start". | 12:41 |
| Appl6 | DiverDude: Oh, now I see what's wrong. | 12:42 |
| Mrokii | Appl6: *sigh* mounting doesn't seem to work, for whatever reason. it says: "mount: /dev/sda2: can't read superblock". I guess my only chance is to try a restart now. | 12:42 |
| Dr_Willis | ManDay: take the clock off your Bed stand.. and replace it with a chumby.. you roll over in the middle of the night look at the time.. slap it once.. get a weather rport.. or whatever... | 12:42 |
| Appl6 | DiverDude: Right click on /dev/sda8 and select the "Swapoff" option. Then use Reload in GParted. | 12:42 |
| DiverDude | Appl6, i think i did something strange with the partions back in the days | 12:42 |
| Dr_Willis | ManDay: the origial one was a 'soft plush' design. :) newer one is more mondern | 12:42 |
| Xethron | Thanks hmw ill give it a try | 12:43 |
| Appl6 | DiverDude: You should see the little silver keys go away next to /dev/sda6 and 8. | 12:43 |
| DiverDude | Appl6, yeah | 12:43 |
| Guest20073 | anyone know how to install my media system (mms) on ubuntu 9.10 | 12:43 |
| Appl6 | Mrokii: Yeah, it isn't sounding good. Do you have another computer to chat on while you mess with that one? | 12:43 |
| zhxk | how can i install grub from ubuntu? | 12:43 |
| DiverDude | Appl6, so now i swapped it off, is it safe to delete_ | 12:43 |
| Appl6 | Mrokii: I'm concerned you won't be able to boot back into ubuntu. | 12:43 |
| Appl6 | Appl6: Yep. Actually, you have two swap partitions, you really only need one. | 12:44 |
| krazykrivda_ | i could use some basic help editing and saving sources.list | 12:44 |
| Appl6 | DiverDude: Yep. Actually, you have two swap partitions, you really only need one. | 12:44 |
| Mrokii | Appl6: nope, I don't have another one. And I fear the same. I guess I will meet a friend and ask him to download 10.04 for me. Or else use 9.10, which I should still have | 12:44 |
| DiverDude | Appl6, aha interesting....So which one should i choose? | 12:44 |
| ManDay | Dr_Willis, hm okay. if it doesnt use a lot of power and can be "slapped" i see the advantage then | 12:44 |
| malikkite | hi... I need help on upgrading 8.04 to 10.04... the first - i get the flashplugins-nonfree error the second - the installation doesn´t finish... the counter arrives to the end but pc doesn´t restart and if i do the grub menu is the old one but the boot sequence is not recognized... someone can help me? | 12:44 |

| Appl6 | DiverDude: It doesn't matter, but I would leave /dev/sda6 as the swap partition, and delete /dev/sda8. | 12:45 |
| Dr_Willis | ManDay: as i said. its a simple little device that basically is a fancy clock radio/electric picture frame.. and its cheaper then many of the elec. pic frames ive seen out | 12:45 |
| Appl6 | Mrokii: Do you have the install CD? | 12:45 |
| krazykrivda_ | how do i edit an .list file it wont let me save changes | 12:45 |
| Dr_Willis | ManDay: if apple had came out with it.. everyone in the free world would want one. :) | 12:45 |
| DiverDude | Appl6, ok i deleted sda8...but still i get the same error if i try to delete sda5 | 12:46 |
| DiverDude | Appl6, maybe i need to swapp off sda6? | 12:46 |
| Mrokii | Appl6: From 9.10, yes. I think I may even be able to download 10.04 here and burn it before rebooting. | 12:46 |
| Dr_Willis | ManDay: the chumvy site lets you make a virtual one. so you can see exactly what features it does/has/channels/applets | 12:46 |
| oCean_ | krazykrivda_: that is probably because you don't have the right credentials. For example the "root" user might own the file | 12:46 |
| Appl6 | krazykrivda_: If you want to edit it, you have to do "sudo nano FILENAME" because you don't have permissions to save it. | 12:46 |
| hmw | !sudo | krazykrivda_: you dont have access permissions as a user. You need to edit it as super user. | 12:46 |
| ubottu | krazykrivda_: you dont have access permissions as a user. You need to edit it as super user.: 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 | 12:46 |
| Appl6 | DiverDude: Yes, do that too. | 12:46 |
| guntbert | krazykrivda_: you need to have root permissions to edit sources.list -- what are you trying to do? | 12:46 |
| krazykrivda_ | try out a different window setup | 12:47 |
| DiverDude | Appl6, YES...that was it....now i have many unallocated areas | 12:47 |
| Appl6 | DiverDude: Good to hear! | 12:47 |
| guntbert | krazykrivda_: that has *nothing* to do with /etc/apt/sources.list !!! | 12:47 |
| DiverDude | Appl6, Is it possible to make sda7 use all those areas_ | 12:47 |
| krazykrivda_ | guntbert: i can use sudo comand on file. and open it.. i hit i and type in what i want.. to insert but dont' no how to save still | 12:47 |
| Appl6 | DiverDude: Yep. Select /dev/sda7 and click Resize/Move at the top. | 12:47 |

| ubottu | Alexander1: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines . Enjoy your stay! | 12:48 |
| Appl6 | DiverDude: But it's going to take a long time (maybe an hour? I'm not sure). | 12:48 |
| guntbert | krazykrivda_: are you certain that you are editing the right file? | 12:48 |
| krazykrivda_ | yes | 12:48 |
| krazykrivda_ | "install sun looking glass" | 12:48 |
| Appl6 | Mrokii: With a readonly root I don't think you could download anything. But having a 9.10 install CD should be fine. | 12:49 |
| DiverDude | Appl6, it seems sda7 has been renamed to sda6 now | 12:49 |
| guntbert | krazykrivda_: so you started with sudo vi /etc/apt/sources.list ? | 12:49 |
| krazykrivda_ | sudo vi /etc/apt/sources.list | 12:49 |
| DiverDude | Appl6, could that be? | 12:49 |
| krazykrivda_ | yes sir | 12:49 |
| Appl6 | DiverDude: That doesn't sound right to me. | 12:50 |
| krazykrivda_ | guntbert: then went to free area and hit 'i' and i was able to insert my text.. then what? | 12:50 |
| DiverDude | Appl6, arg maybe i fucked it up then >S | 12:50 |
| Appl6 | DiverDude: Another screenshot please? | 12:50 |
| DiverDude | sorry | 12:50 |
| DiverDude | yeah | 12:50 |
| hmw | krazykrivda_: next time try nano, its a bit easier, since it shows commands on the bottom. You enter edit mode with "i". Now press ESC to leave to command mode, then type :wq | 12:50 |
| Mrokii | Appl6: my home is on another partition, and I have just tried a download to the desktop, which works. I guess only the system-partition itself is affected by the read-only-status | 12:50 |
| guntbert | krazykrivda_: ok after your edits you press <esc> to leave the insert mode and the you press : (cursor goes to the bottom line) and then x (to save and exit) | 12:51 |

| Appl6 | Mrokii: Oh I didn't notice you had a separate home, then yes you're absolutely right. You can download it to anywhere in your home directory. | 12:51 |
| oCean_ | krazykrivda_: in vi the :wq! as well as the :x! command will save your current edit, overwriting the existing file! | 12:51 |

| Mrokii | Appl6: np. Thank you again. | 12:54 |
| zhxk | Radio-l:im tring to write grub to a partition | 12:54 |
| Dr_Willis | Necrosporus: bottom line is the limited space on a single cd. is the defacto reason for not including 100's of other things | 12:54 |
| Appl6 | DiverDude: Yep. | 12:54 |
| Appl6 | DiverDude: Oh, wait one second. | 12:55 |
| hmw | krazykrivda_: perhaps some typos? double check the instructions you were following, file names are case sensitive in *nix! | 12:55 |
| DiverDude | Appl6, yes? | 12:55 |
| krazykrivda_ | yeah i'm aware hmw.. also.. several failed to fetch notifications | 12:55 |
| Appl6 | DiverDude: Because sda6 is inside of sda4 extended partition, you won't be able to use up all your space yet. | 12:55 |
| Lcawte | [12:52:05] <Lcawte> I have a load of hs_err_*.log files in my home directory, what are they, and is it safe to just delete them? | 12:55 |
| Appl6 | DiverDude: First, you have to resize sda4 to use up all that extra space. After you resize sda4, then you can resize sda6. | 12:56 |
| DiverDude | Appl6, yes i just noticed that there was some space missing. Is there any way i can change this | 12:56 |
| budlust | when I mount an ISO in kvm, where does kvm store the data? | 12:56 |
| guntbert | Lcawte: look into them to see what they are | 12:56 |

| DiverDude | Appl6, ahaa ok....Is there any special reason why sda6 is inside sda4 actually? | 12:56 |

| DiverDude | Appl6, most likely i did some strange stupid things and caused that strange construction when i installed ubuntu 9.10 | 12:57 |
| hmw | krazykrivda_: "better" = faster | 12:57 |
| Appl6 | DiverDude: I don't know, you set it up that way? Haha. You can only have 4 primary partitions, so in order to get more than 4 partitions you had to make one extended partition (sda4) and stick a bunch of logical ones (sda5,6,7,8) inside of it. | 12:57 |
| Guest20073 | mymediasystem | 12:57 |
| hmw | krazykrivda_: but having another ubuntu repo does not give you more software to install | 12:58 |

| epssy | samba shares from my home directory are seeable on others computers but they cannot access them. is this a known bug in 10.04? | 12:58 |

| abhishek | Hello, I just upgraded from ubunto 9.10 to 10.04, now my window title bar is not showing!! any help?? | 12:59 |
| Ferb | try resizing window... | 12:59 |
| Dr_Willis | abhishek: start with 'alt-f2' and 'metacity --replace' | 12:59 |
| Appl6 | DiverDude: Right. Actually, you can tell GParted to resize sda4, then resize sda6, and then when you hit Apply it will do both for you. | 12:59 |
| krazykrivda_ | hmw: i dont' know what you mean | 12:59 |
| Appl6 | DiverDude: That way you don't have to hang around and wait for it to finish, because it will probably take a long time. | 12:59 |
| DiverDude | Appl6, okay, and tell it in the same time to use maximum possible space? | 12:59 |
| Appl6 | DiverDude: Yes. | 13:00 |
| Brc | just download ext2 manager to view and tranfer files from windows 7..all went ok i can c the the linux partition but when i click to view files there are empty | 13:00 |
| DiverDude | Appl6, that would be excellent...then i could hit the gym meanwhile hehhe | 13:00 |
| abhishek | @ Dr_Willis I tride running metacity --replace but it brings the title bar only for that session.. and as soon as i close the terminal its gone again... :( | 13:00 |
| Appl6 | DiverDude: Haha sounds good. | 13:00 |
| krazykrivda_ | hmw: failed install because wasn't able to find backages lg3d-core | 13:00 |
| DiverDude | Appl6, do you have time to tell me how I may set up this? | 13:00 |
| Appl6 | DiverDude: Set up what? | 13:01 |
| hmw | krazykrivda_: Start in the System menu (top left) and look for those texts. Some are submenus, others buttons, etc. Just read your screen. If you have partial failing packages, or slow downloads, you have the option to select another repository. Only applies to Ubuntu of course. If you use an external repository, you would need an alternative one, but thats not common | 13:01 |
| DiverDude | Appl6, to do bot resize sda4 then6 and use maximum possible space for both | 13:01 |
| abhishek | @Dr_Willis: I tride running metacity --replace but it brings the title bar only for that session.. and as soon as i close the terminal its gone again... :( | 13:01 |

| merlin2049er | hey, i got ddclient installed and setup | 13:03 |
| zetheroo | why do applications and services take up so much resource in Ubuntu? | 13:03 |

| krazykrivda_ | wtf! sry | 13:03 |
| === qwert is now known as goat34 | ||
| merlin2049er | but how do i get it auto started with boot up? | 13:03 |

| Necrosporus | Dr_Willis, there is DVDs also | 13:03 |

| Dr_Willis | Necrosporus: part of the ubuntu 'goal' is to stay fitting on a cd. | 13:07 |
| hmw | krazykrivda_: i was starting to read the wiki on http://javadesktop.org/lg3d/debian - what did you mean with the autostart? | 13:07 |

| Zider | Necrosporus: there is blu-ray too, does that mean they should do 40GB isos? ;) | 13:07 |

| Appl6 | ManDay: The assumption is that usually people are looking for the top N consumers of a resource, which is why there isn't scrolling. And the other thing is that top sorts by CPU by default, and if you change it, you should remember what it's sorted by rather than it telling you. Not that those are great assumptions to make, but they're understandable. | 13:13 |

| Appl6 | ManDay: Some things are designed in a minimalist fashion, and top was also designed to fit the maximum amount of information in that space. Adding an indicator would require the use of one row. If you work in an 80x24 terminal, every row counts (especially if you can't scroll). | 13:15 |

| ManDay | Appl6, honetly man thats bollocks, top is not minimalist at all, it, given that that thing only displays a limited row of processes anyway you could have indicated in a separate row, or just by changing the BG of the column, or even putting the accroding number in the first row | 13:17 |
| ManDay | there are million of options | 13:17 |
| zetheroo | krow: nobody is lecturing ... just suggesting | 13:17 |

| DiverDude | Appl6, did you see the details report also in the bottom? | 13:17 |
| krow | i found that copy and past of the knopix xorg file helps temp | 13:17 |
| zetheroo | krow: you may want to at least make an effort to get back in the "loop" ... | 13:17 |
| ManDay | zetheroo, system monitor is gui, right? | 13:18 |
| gbsun | help: how to install a complete ruby on ubuntu | 13:18 |
| zetheroo | ManDay: yes | 13:18 |
| krow | untill you can figure a better option | 13:18 |
| ManDay | zetheroo, thats not what im looking for | 13:18 |
| krazykrivda_ | hmw: i realy liek the way the things were turned and angled when not in use | 13:18 |
| zetheroo | ManDay: you want something running in a Terminal? | 13:18 |
| ManDay | penguin42, per process | 13:18 |
| ManDay | zetheroo, or tty, yes | 13:19 |
| hmw | krazykrivda_: that is desktop cube with 4 workspaces later in the vid | 13:19 |
| zetheroo | ManDay: so you don't run a graphical environment? | 13:19 |
| DiverDude | Appl6, so just reboot on the live CD? or reboot normally? | 13:19 |
| zetheroo | ManDay: cause the screenlet I am using is pretty fab | 13:19 |
| Dr_Willis | !info htop | 13:19 |
| ubottu | htop (source: htop): interactive processes viewer. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.8.3-1ubuntu1 (lucid), package size 61 kB, installed size 212 kB | 13:19 |

| abhishek | Hello, I just upgraded from ubuntu 9.10 to 10.04, now my window title bar is not showing!! I tried ALT-F2 and metacity --replace but it fixes the problem for only one session. As soon as i log off and log on the titlebar disappears again | 13:20 |
| ManDay | zetheroo, i believe it | 13:20 |
| penguin42 | ManDay: atop is much more configurable, so if you don't like the default you may be able to do it the way you like, but you know sometimes the simplest thing is just a ps in a terminal | 13:20 |
| Appl6 | DiverDude: I looked at the extra output you gave me; it all looks like it just wants you to reboot. So yeah, reboot from the liveCD. | 13:20 |
| leagris | What is the proper way to stop NetworkManager showing a disconnected network icon when a boot time statically configured eth0 is already up full time? | 13:20 |
| Dr_Willis | abhishek: one fix - install and run the 'fusion-icon' tool. and tell it to use 'metacity' instead of compiz. | 13:20 |

| === mahen23 is now known as wasmahen | ||
| penguin42 | sugoruyo: Is it an mdraid raid (i.e do you have a /proc/mdstat ?) | 13:21 |
| Dr_Willis | abhishek: seems that compiz is some how crashing. YOu could disable all 'effects' under 'desktop Right click -> change wallpaper' -> effects tab. | 13:21 |
| sugoruyo | yes | 13:21 |
| DiverDude | Appl6, allright i will just try that now. Thank you, you have really been most helpful :) This is why i love the linux community | 13:21 |

| sugoruyo | penguin42, what happened is a long story, it's on two 1TB disks with just data, I could use it in 9.10 | 13:23 |
| sugoruyo | penguin42, but now in 10.04 I seem to be unable to mount. I get an error that starts like this: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/md0 | 13:24 |
| zetheroo | krow: you talking to anyone in particular? | 13:24 |
| Appl6 | ManDay: You can hitting x then b while inside top. I don't like it, but maybe it's what you wanted. Anything else you wanted it to do? | 13:24 |
| penguin42 | sugoruyo: Hmm not good, can you pastebin your /proc/mdstat and dmesg ? | 13:24 |

| Taodam | hi. | 13:26 |
| Taodam | I've upgraded to lynx for 09.10 this morning and intel graphics drivers are not supported anymore : any tip ? | 13:26 |
| Xethron | I am trying to set up Ubuntu and when I wanted to select the partition, it said I need to create a swap file too... I have just over 300 megs of ram. What should the size of the swap file be? | 13:26 |
| penguin42 | Xethron: 600MB is a good guess | 13:26 |
| mfraz74 | tried booting the computer this morning, but for some reason I'm unable to login if i use the nvidia or nouveau drivers | 13:26 |
| Xethron | Why 600? | 13:26 |
| danutz | what program like daemon tools is for linux? | 13:26 |
| penguin42 | Xethron: There is no hard and fast rule - but 2x ram for a small machine isn't bad | 13:26 |
| jrib | !iso | danutz | 13:27 |
| ubottu | danutz: To mount an ISO disc image, type « sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint> » - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning. | 13:27 |
| wildbat_laptop | orion_X11, exclude them or give it a specific list to sync | 13:27 |
| Dr_Willis | danutz: you can mount ISO files with the normal mount command and a few other tools. No need for anything fancy | 13:27 |
| Taodam | any tips for graphic drivers in new ubuntu ? | 13:27 |
| resno | mfraz74: what type of error you getting? | 13:27 |
| Dr_Willis | danutz: are you trying to get wine to access a copy protected game? | 13:27 |
| sugoruyo | penguin42: here you go http://pastebin.com/1mqvRT3a | 13:27 |
| Xethron | OK, and should it be at the beginning of the HDD or between the two partitions? | 13:27 |
| danutz | I want to install world of warcraft but I don`t have any idea how to do it:) | 13:27 |
| roberto_ | system(firefox, url) -- this doesn't run, just returns nil -- but the spec says it should work. if I pass only 1 argument it does work, but clips the url. any ideas? | 13:27 |
| Appl6 | ManDay: You can use top -pPID1 -pPID2 to make top look only at certain PIDs. | 13:27 |
| Dr_Willis | Taodam: intel gfx works fine here.. they are 'supported' | 13:27 |
| roberto_ | in ruby | 13:27 |
| mfraz74 | it just won't start the x server | 13:27 |

| Dr_Willis | danutz: read the wine app database. and use the WoW online Installer I iimagine. | 13:28 |
| Dr_Willis | !appdb | danutz | 13:28 |
| danutz | I`ll download world of warcraft now and then..I just don`t know how t oinstall it | 13:28 |
| jrib | danutz: read the link ubottu gave you | 13:28 |
| Appl6 | ManDay: I'm not that in love with top, but I just thought you might find it more useful with the right options. | 13:28 |
| ManDay | Appl6, right but im still trying to figure out the switches to get memory usage outta ps | 13:28 |
| orion_X11 | wildbat_laptop, Do you mean excluding the hidden files? | 13:28 |
| Taodam | Dr_Willis : you've just upgraded or install ubuntu 10.04 from scratch ? | 13:28 |
| Guest89881 | i want support in windows dotproxy does work lyk that in ubutnu | 13:28 |
| wildbat_laptop | orion_X11, yes | 13:29 |
| lubosz | hi, two-finger scroll is grayed out since lucid. it worked in karmic. how do i reenable it? | 13:29 |
| Appl6 | ManDay: It already gives you mem usage. VIRT = virtual memory usage, RES = resident memory usage, SHR = shared memory usage. Usually when people want to see "memory usage" they're talking about resident (RES). | 13:29 |
| roberto_ | in ruby -- system(firefox, url) -- this doesn't run, just returns nil -- but the spec says it should work. if I pass only 1 argument it does work, but clips the url. any ideas? | 13:29 |
| lubosz | in gnome-mouse-properties | 13:29 |
| Dr_Willis | Taodam: yes to both.... | 13:29 |
| wildbat_laptop | orion_X11, however synce with specfic list of files or dir is safer | 13:29 |
| adi1 | hi all. how to add again tray icon that i mistakenly removed from panel. i am talking about the new sys tray that is close to the hour.... mail telepathy gwiber bluethooth and ubuntu status. any one any idea? thanks | 13:30 |
| roberto_ | I mean -- could it be a problem with an underlying system library? this should just call system() | 13:30 |
| Dr_Willis | Taodam: i have several laptops and machiones.. some upgrade.. some clean installs | 13:30 |
| Taodam | ok | 13:30 |
| abhishek | Dr_Willis, I tried to use the fusion icon tool/icon thats in the panel to select metacity but it did not work | 13:30 |
| ManDay | Appl6, what ps does?! | 13:30 |
| jgracin | Hi! I'm switching back from OpenSolaris to Ubuntu 10.04 after 2 years. Has 64-bit Ubuntu matured? Are the still any 32-bit-only components/plugins/etc (flash?). My machine supports at most 3GB of RAM, so that's not an issue. | 13:30 |
| penguin42 | sugoruyo: That doesn't look too bad does it? Hmm I'm not too sure what to suggest, I'd probably try dumping the start of the md with od or other hex dumper and see if it looks like a filesystem | 13:30 |
| Taodam | Dr_Willis : I'll try to remove et reinstall drivers | 13:30 |
| jrib | jgracin: 64bit hasn't had those problems for years now | 13:30 |
| penguin42 | jgracin: There's now a 64bit flash from Adobe (not in the packages) that works great | 13:30 |
| adi1 | the only icon i have now its the wireless icon | 13:30 |
| sdk_lnx | Hello, is the ubuntu auto update system working on u1004 ? | 13:31 |
| adi1 | does anyone have any idea | 13:31 |
| Appl6 | ManDay: What do you mean "what ps does"? | 13:31 |
| ManDay | <Appl6> ManDay: It already gives you mem usage. VIRT = virtual memory usage, RES = resident memory usage, SHR = shared memory usage. Usually when people want to see "memory usage" they're talking about resident (RES). | 13:31 |

| ManDay | Appl6, forget top | 13:32 |

| mfraz74 | also getting NVRM: RmInitAdapter failed! | 13:32 |
| Appl6 | ManDay: So you want ps to display memory usage? | 13:32 |
| abhishek | Dr_Willis, I tried to use the fusion icon tool/icon thats in the panel to select metacity but it did not work | 13:32 |
| Xethron | penguin42, The swap file. At the beginning of the HDD or between the two partitions? | 13:32 |
| ManDay | Appl6, correct | 13:32 |
| sugoruyo | penguin42: how do i tell if it looks like an fs? my problem is basically that mounting doesn't work, I keep getting those superblock-related errors | 13:32 |
| penguin42 | Xethron: Oh, probably near the end is OK | 13:32 |

| penguin42 | sugoruyo: It's not easy; but it's an interesting question what happened to the raid to make it do that | 13:34 |
| krow | A-1 vs. Lea&parrins steak sauce? | 13:34 |
| === neutrino is now known as tar- | ||
| jimi_ | jrib, yeah, it keeps defaulting to /bin/sh even after changing | 13:35 |
| sugoruyo | penguin42: well the funny thing is nothing really happened to make it do THAT in particular | 13:35 |
| jrib | jimi_: pastebin your terminal session | 13:35 |
| jrib | jimi_: wait. /bin/sh isn't the default interactive shell anyway. | 13:35 |
| jimi_ | jrib, It is when you create a new user | 13:36 |
| sugoruyo | penguin42: it was created by NAS device which at some point messed it up and couldn't read it, so I plugged the two HDDs in my PC and tried to see the RAID0 | 13:36 |
| penguin42 | sugoruyo: Yeh that can be tricky - the only thing that comes to mind is if the two drives have got swapped at some point, but I don't know if md is smart enough to realise that; I know the detection order can be rather random these days | 13:36 |
| penguin42 | sugoruyo: Oh, so have you ever had it work on your PC? | 13:36 |
| jrib | jimi_: how are you creating the new user? | 13:36 |
| sugoruyo | penguin42: mdadm says one of them is an ext2 fs and the other a RAID0 member, however manually doing a mdadm --create makes the array operable | 13:36 |
| warpi | hi! is it possible to download the "libusb-dev" package to enable installing on an offline computer? | 13:37 |
| sugoruyo | penguin42: on 9.10 I could just mount it as an ext2 fs | 13:37 |
| jimi_ | jrib, I already created it. I am using it now. I just want to change from /bin/sh to /bin/bash , apparently you have to logout and back in for it to take affect. I just ssh'd into myself and its bash then. | 13:37 |
| krow | ill tell you what worked forme it was root copy past and cutomizing xorg.conf | 13:37 |
| jrib | jimi_: can you please answer my question? | 13:37 |
| penguin42 | sugoruyo: My guess is that the one that says it's an ext2fs is the 1st drive in the array | 13:37 |
| krow | using nano | 13:37 |
| Appl6 | ManDay: Try ps v. | 13:37 |
| jimi_ | jrib, no :) | 13:38 |
| Appl6 | ManDay: RSS=resident memory set size, and %MEM is obvious. | 13:38 |
| jrib | jimi_: suit yourself.... | 13:38 |
| jimi_ | jrib, i already fixed it | 13:38 |
| jrib | jimi_: you probably did something non-optimal | 13:38 |
| krow | not sudo nano but root | 13:38 |
| sugoruyo | penguin42: quite possibly... I'll try restarting the array in reverse order and see if that helps | 13:38 |

| sugoruyo | penguin42: that's not a problem right now 'cause the dev. names are the same as they were in 9.10 | 13:40 |
| penguin42 | sugoruyo: OK, but I've seen them swap between boots | 13:40 |

All was fine until yesterday when I simply installed the available updates using update manager: since then when I start Ubuntu I got an error and I've to run Ubuntu in low-graphic-mode. It looks like it cannot use the Nvidia driver anymore. Anyone else is having this problem? | 13:48 |
| erUSUL | connex: that's seems a pretty harmless normal info message | 13:48 |
| obiwan_ | sry sinux i don't know really know if i get that icon, cause i usually upgrade manually. but next time i'll try to look at it | 13:48 |
| ManDay | zetheroo, what was that thing you recommented? | 13:48 |
| connex | penguin42, I recieve this everytime my connection stalls. it appears atleast 100 times in the log for the past 10 minutes | 13:48 |
| zetheroo | ManDay: screenlets | 13:48 |

| sinux | penguin42, oh so thats the case huh funny :-O | 13:49 |
| obiwan_ | this morning i had a new kernel update from the update manager | 13:49 |
| obiwan_ | ops sry | 13:49 |
| penguin42 | connex: Oh that's odd - is it only that message or is that mixed with other slightly different ones? | 13:49 |
| obiwan_ | guys please oculd anyone walk me through troubleshooting my evolution account? It won't fetch my gmail messages from the server. it doesn't even ask me for the password, just returns error | 13:49 |
| zetheroo | ManDay: called Sysmonitor | 13:49 |
| ManDay | nah screenlets right i remember | 13:49 |

| erUSUL | obiwan_: what error ? | 13:49 |

| jrib | awesome_guest: pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list | 13:52 |
| penguin42 | connex: That traceback shouldn't be there - and you shouldn't get those up messages without down messages or the like - they should just happen once when you plugin - file a bug against the 'linux' package | 13:52 |
| connex | penguin42, Could it be the hardware? | 13:52 |
| zetheroo | ManDay: really it's very good ... as a dock ... a lot of applets etc ... | 13:52 |
| penguin42 | connex: Yes | 13:52 |

| roberto_ | in ruby -- system(firefox, url) -- this doesn't run, just returns nil -- but the spec says it should work. if I pass only 1 argument it does work, but clips the url. any ideas wat's gone wrong here -- system or ruby? | 13:55 |
| jrib | awesome_guest: no, run "sudo apt-get update", did you pastebin them? | 13:55 |
| sugoruyo | penguin42: it appears it was the order causing me trouble... I reassembled it with the correct one and now it mounts just fine... I guess I should back the stuff up somewhere and rebuild it cleanly... oh well | 13:55 |
| obiwan_ | erUSUL: i'll try pop just in case it's the server , i recall a gmail issue in their servers not long ago | 13:55 |

| awesome_guest | jrib: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/0NqSj5Ts | 13:55 |
| awesome_guest | I did the obvious thing already | 13:56 |
| krow | apt-get is one of the greatest things in linux I must say | 13:56 |
| * rocket16 agrees with krow | 13:56 | |
| jrib | awesome_guest: what's the obvious thing? There were two things you had to do to the file | 13:56 |
| awesome_guest | I uncommented stuff | 13:56 |
| awesome_guest | and I just installed vnc4server | 13:56 |
| jrib | awesome_guest: note that doesn't give you multiverse, just universe | 13:56 |
| awesome_guest | *crosses fingers* | 13:56 |
| awesome_guest | apparently it was in universe | 13:57 |
| jrib | awesome_guest: ok | 13:57 |
| rocket16 | The Ubuntu Tweaks is a nice tool, as it is supposed to be. Does it really tweak Ubuntu? | 13:57 |
| awesome_guest | thank you | 13:57 |

| ubottu | awesome_guest, please see my private message | 13:57 |
| mattycoze | hey guys, I've been meaning to ask for a while now; why does my laptop run so much hotter when booted in Ubunto rather than Vista? | 13:57 |
| mattycoze | *Ubuntu | 13:57 |
| krow | be careful with all that stuff you might get something you dont like | 13:58 |
| mattycoze | I've read something about the a nvidia driver | 13:58 |
| jrib | Hi, how do I stop mplayer from spamming "bt_audio_service_open: connect() failed: Connection refused (111)" 10 times whenever I open it? | 13:58 |
| erUSUL | obiwan_: :/ indeed | 13:58 |
| rocket16 | mattycoze: I think, the problem is related to hardware. Did you get the drivers installed? | 13:58 |
| awesome_guest | jrib: so my understanding is, one can just edit sources.list once the correct repository is identified | 13:59 |
| awesome_guest | is that so? | 13:59 |
| krow | you know even when you uninstall it leavs crap behind that can cause problems | 13:59 |
| jrib | awesome_guest: yes | 13:59 |
| ManDay | any general opinion on avant-window-navigator VS cairo-dock from you guys? | 13:59 |
| awesome_guest | schweet | 13:59 |
| mattycoze | rocket16; well the drivers for my Nvidia card automatically installed themselves they work fine in Ubuntu, except for the fact that it seems to run ALOT hotter | 13:59 |
| bkw | I have problems with moving objects on my panel. I'm running Xunbutu 10.04. I right-click and select move, but still I cannot drag an icon. Am I doing anything wrong? | 13:59 |
| * rocket16 doesn't understand why is Empathy used to replace Pidgin in Ubuntu. | 13:59 | |
| jrib | awesome_guest: make sure you only use repositories intended for your ubuntu version however, ideally only the official ones | 13:59 |
| daniel | Hello | 14:00 |
| obiwan_ | erUSUL: u mean the problem is with you too? | 14:00 |
| mattycoze | rocket16; neither do I! | 14:00 |
| rocket16 | mattycoze: Is the fan working properly? | 14:00 |
| awesome_guest | jrib: why's that? | 14:00 |
| rocket16 | mattycoze: lol, great! | 14:00 |
| FloodBot2 | !netsplit | 14:00 |
| 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 | 14:00 |
| mattycoze | yeah it's in good working order | 14:00 |
| krow | packages are a crazy mistress they are yer best friend one second and yer worst enemy the mext | 14:00 |
| awesome_guest | jrib: nvm "intended for your ubuntu version" | 14:00 |
| erUSUL | obiwan_: no; i have no problems here with gmail... but it seems to be a server problem. dunno what do about it thought | 14:00 |
| awesome_guest | I am bratty today | 14:00 |
| mattycoze | just goes alot faster in ubuntu, and I'm worried it'll burn out | 14:00 |
| erUSUL | obiwan_: has been happening for days? or it is just today ? | 14:00 |
| daniel | I have a ATI 3D accelation problem, when i type glxinfo I obtain Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0". lot of times | 14:01 |
| awesome_guest | jrib: do you know how synaptic deals with name conflicts between introduced packages? | 14:01 |
| obiwan_ | ok np erUSUL i'll try on gnome maybe they know something eheh | 14:01 |
| jrib | awesome_guest: what do you mean? | 14:01 |
| obiwan_ | erUSUL: thanks :) | 14:01 |
| krow | its like they alwase say if it not broke dont fix it | 14:01 |
| obiwan_ | erUSUL: nope, it's been happening since my lucid upgrade | 14:01 |
| awesome_guest | jrib: what if two repositories have packages with the same given name? | 14:01 |
| mattycoze | is there any way to limit the power going to the gxcard? | 14:01 |
| rocket16 | mattycoze: I found something similar (slightly), in http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-1018452.html | 14:01 |
| awesome_guest | two (activated) repositories | 14:02 |
| krow | but who are they thats what we do and thats why we love linux | 14:02 |
| jrib | awesome_guest: higher version (unless you define a different policy) | 14:02 |
| awesome_guest | k | 14:02 |
| rocket16 | mattycoze: But I doubt, whether it will help, since it is about Edgy, :( | 14:02 |
| greezmunkey | Ok, since I have my /home on a seperate HDD - what can I expect if I throw down and do a clean Lucid install? I'll have to recreate LAMP, but I backed up my databases. Anything I should really watch out for? | 14:02 |
| mattycoze | rocket16 *reading* | 14:03 |
| jrib | greezmunkey: well backup /etc in case you made some changes there | 14:03 |
| u_ | hi how can i check if anyone's using my router wifi | 14:03 |
| rocket16 | mattycoze: Sure, goodluck, | 14:03 |
| roberto_ | in ruby -- system(firefox, url) -- this doesn't run, just returns nil -- but the spec says it should work. if I pass only 1 argument it does work, but clips the url. any ideas wat's gone wrong here -- system or ruby? | 14:03 |
| obiwan_ | guys, has it been any change in the firewalling default policies in lucid? some drop default or at ufw? it looks like i got problems talking to the server | 14:03 |
| awesome_guest | jrib: anything bad about running vncserver as root? | 14:03 |
| greezmunkey | jrib: That's why I ask in here! yes samba, several others! (thanks) | 14:03 |
| jrib | awesome_guest: probably a bad idea if you can avoid it. I don't know how it's intended to be run however | 14:04 |
| krow | u fist is yer intrnet activity light blinking rapidly? | 14:04 |

| roberto_ | obiwan_: free as in christmas :P | 14:04 |

| krow | if so a good thing to do is mac adrees authenticatin | 14:05 |
| greezmunkey | jrib: yeah, nothing too valuable there, nothing I wouldn't mind redoing anyway | 14:05 |
| Oer | !resetpanels | 14:05 |
| ubottu | To reset the gnome panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » | 14:05 |
| krow | set yer router to ony let mac you assign | 14:06 |
| u_ | krow no it's not blinking. is there an app which would list any users | 14:06 |
| obiwan_ | and to reset the system tray? anybody knows how? sometimes icons are broken | 14:06 |

| crunchuan | hi folks, i'm in trouble with screen brighness, maximum brightness is not correct | 14:07 |
| c0dem4gnetic | im about to install ubuntu and this time will give LVM some more thought (used to just accept the defaults) ... now... should /boot be managed by LVM also? how large should that partition be? 2-300MB? | 14:07 |
| TheAwesomeGuy | but I want to be able to not have to enter in my passphrase afterwards | 14:08 |
| TheAwesomeGuy | anyone know of an option i can specify to input the passphrase when invoking the command | 14:08 |
| greezmunkey | jrib: During install - esp partitioning it will ask me about /home, what do I do there? | 14:08 |
| dsaintz | roberto: yah i totally agree with.. could any one tell us how to disable that one.. thnaks | 14:08 |
| eryn_1983 | hey peeps i need some help.. | 14:08 |
| krow | save passphrase on an flash copy past | 14:08 |
| jrib | TheAwesomeGuy: you probably want to look into gpg-agent and checkout seahorse if you like guis | 14:08 |
| TheAwesomeGuy | jrib: Don't care about GUIs | 14:09 |
| TheAwesomeGuy | Just want that one thing there | 14:09 |
| jrib | greezmunkey: tell it to use your existing /home partition as /home but make sure you tell it NOT to format | 14:09 |
| eryn_1983 | i need to execute some scripts at shut down and hibernate of my ubuntu desktop | 14:09 |

| TheAwesomeGuy | so I cant answer the passphrase wuestion | 14:09 |
| greezmunkey | jrib: ok, sounds reasonable - right on man, thanks | 14:09 |
| jrib | TheAwesomeGuy: does php have some gpg library? | 14:10 |
| sinux | I even tried WICD but it just doesn't work | 14:10 |
| krow | fucking crackers | 14:10 |
| TheAwesomeGuy | jrib: I'll check | 14:10 |
| hatake_kakashi | sinux, pastebin your lspci -nnk into pastebin | 14:10 |
| roberto_ | TheAwesomeGuy: --passphrase <str> works for the gpg command | 14:11 |
| awesome_guest | open question: do people still use emacs/vi via remote desktop, or is there a shiny new alternative? | 14:11 |
| roberto_ | TheAwesomeGuy: wouldn't hard code that though .. you can also --passphrase-file <file> | 14:11 |
| roberto_ | TheAwesomeGuy: check the man page | 14:11 |
| krow | who in here is running duell boot on a n origional 2001 copy of xp pro me that who | 14:11 |
| respire | Sometimes NetworkManager doesn't detect my GSM modem. Any ideas? I can connect with pppd just fine | 14:11 |
| sinux | hatake_kakashi, I'm not using that Netbook right know it's in my office but I know the make and model of that card | 14:11 |
| roberto_ | TheAwesomeGuy: check the man page -- about 2000 lines in :S | 14:12 |
| sinux | and yes my card has been detected | 14:12 |

| roberto_ | in ruby -- system(firefox, url) -- this doesn't run, just returns nil -- but the spec says it should work. if I pass only 1 argument it does work, but clips the url. any ideas wat's gone wrong here -- system or ruby? | 14:12 |
| red | Trying to play anything results in amarok just skipping the file and moving to the next | 14:13 |
| red | until it finds a .wav :p | 14:13 |

| red | rhytmbox does work but its a bit simple | 14:13 |
| u_ | thanks krow | 14:13 |
| red | Oer: when I first played something in rhythmbox it installed some plugins | 14:13 |
| jrib | krow: do you have an ubuntu question? If so, please ask it on a single line | 14:13 |
| red | do I need to install some additional ones? | 14:13 |
| rabidweezle | red, try playing the same song in the movie player, it should download the codecs needed | 14:14 |
| sinux | hatake_kakashi, and another thing when I do lspci I don't see my card but when I do a lsusb it shows up with model and the vendors name | 14:14 |
| red | okay | 14:14 |
| hatake_kakashi | sinux, well that's not a card afaik, that's a chipset brand name and chipset model number. It should be supported (and its USB device fyi), check if iwconfig would list as wlan0 and if so it's probably one of the GUI frontends that is conflicting | 14:14 |
| eryn_1983 | is there a runlevel for hibernate? | 14:14 |

| mcsmurf | hello, someone knows of a common problem with suspend to RAM being broken when using KDE? problem is when I just started the pc up, suspend works fine on a tty console with pm-suspend | 14:15 |
| quietone | I can't get wireless to start at boot on lucid. I copied /etc/network/interfaces and wpa_supplicant.conf from karmic. What have I missed? | 14:15 |
| === William is now known as coderscore | ||

| mcsmurf | but when I now log in into KDE once (and optionally also log out again), suspend does not work anymore, I just get a blinking cursor on the console | 14:15 |
| jrib | eryn_1983: there are a bunch of commands, like pm-hibernate that are part of the pm-utils package. Why do you want this? | 14:15 |
| mcsmurf | like it's waiting for something; the debug mode of pm-utils did not give me anything useful | 14:16 |

| piero | and configured it | 14:17 |
| sinux | thx hatake_kakashi what happen is it detects all the wireless networks but when I try to connect it doesn't get an IP and gets disconnected but when I move very close to my AP it get's connected and works but when I move away it stops working. And signal strength shown is alway around 80% or near that mark My window work with out any problems. Oh and the wireless is on DHCP auto IP is issued. | 14:17 |

| marco93 | hi, when i try to install grub in my external HD it show me this error: http://paste.ubuntu.com/430028/ | 14:18 |
| marco93 | how i must do ? | 14:19 |
| ManDay | when I use that conky complains no variable audacious_title | 14:19 |
| supernothing | piero: downloading and installing from source should usually be a last resort | 14:19 |
| RambJoe | how can i make windows resize smoothly with compiz??? | 14:19 |
| eryn_1983 | ok ok.... | 14:19 |
| eryn_1983 | jrib: how do i determine is i am using pm=utils? | 14:19 |
| rabidweezle | ManDay, check your .conkyrc settings :/ | 14:20 |
| eryn_1983 | jrib: mine is set to 'kernel' i ? | 14:20 |
| jrib | eryn_1983: you probably are, try and see | 14:20 |
| eryn_1983 | is that right? | 14:20 |
| rabidweezle | ManDay, do you have audacious installed? | 14:20 |
| ManDay | rabidweezle, well its a copy of http://conky.sourceforge.net/conkyrc-drphibes | 14:20 |
| jrib | eryn_1983: not sure what you are referring to now | 14:20 |
| eryn_1983 | i can hibernate and the like i am not certain its pm-utils though | 14:20 |
| piero | when i use ./configure it is okay | 14:20 |
| ManDay | rabidweezle, yes, its running | 14:20 |
| ManDay | should that env var be set or what? | 14:20 |
| supernothing | piero: and " make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1" is just a generic error, there would be something else higher up that's the actual useful output | 14:20 |
| rabidweezle | ManDay, maybe it requires a plugin | 14:20 |
| piero | but when i make that is where the problem is | 14:20 |
| jrib | piero: ettercap is in the repositories, you shouldn't be compiling it | 14:21 |
| ManDay | rabidweezle, okay but what that entry in the conkyrc does is basically display an env variable, nothing more, right? | 14:21 |
| ManDay | so if i manage to expert the current audiacous title to that var it will work?! | 14:21 |

| red | It's using xine as the backend mmh | 14:27 |
| hatake_kakashi | sinux, I'd say there's something wrong with the driver, it could be on power savings mode somewhere, a temporary hack is to get a proper antenna and fix that to the wireless dongle itself to see if the signal improves. Failing that would be to try linux-backports | 14:27 |

| penguin42 | salil: It should work, when ubuntu finally upgrades to 3.6 you might want to check whether there are multiple .mozilla directories or profiles and if they are using the same one | 15:10 |
| jrib | perhamlinux: well you can either modify gnome-volume-manager (this you can probably just kill, but I don't know if it does more) or udev at some point... | 15:11 |
| Sa19 | The problem occured when I changed my GDM theme, when I get logged into an XFCE session instead of a GNOME one I try to change it back but I go back to the busy cursor | 15:11 |
| Sa19 | and blank screen | 15:11 |
| perhamlinux | jrib, how should I modify gnome-volume-manager? is it safe to totally uninstall it? and , what would I lose if I do so? | 15:11 |

| fynn | Hey. My Ubuntu login is failing on something in my .bashrc, but I don't know what. How do I debug this? | 15:12 |
| jrib | perhamlinux: it probably has some gconf settings; I don't know | 15:12 |
| penguin42 | fynn: How do you know it's something in your .bashrc ? | 15:12 |
| perhamlinux | jrib, thanks, I'll search a bit more. ;) | 15:12 |
| piotr__ | witam | 15:12 |
| fynn | penguin42: because when I renamed it to .bashrc.disabled login works. | 15:12 |
| fynn | that's how I'm able to run XChat and talk to you :) | 15:13 |
| jrib | perhamlinux: ideally, it would just not mount them again after you unmounted. I thought it did this | 15:13 |
| fynn | Where would a failure on .bashrc be logged? | 15:13 |
| jrib | fynn: pastebin your .bashrc I suppose | 15:13 |
| fynn | hm, wouldn't a failure be logged somewhere? this is madness... | 15:13 |
| jrib | fynn: where does it fail exactly? Maybe ~/.xsession-errors | 15:14 |

| penguin42 | fynn: Have you tried logging in on a text terminal? | 15:15 |
| liminal | hello | 15:15 |

| liminal | my update package manager keeps crashing | 15:16 |
| Take0n | is there a way to scale a png image using terminal? | 15:16 |
| liminal | im using ubuntu lucid 32bit | 15:16 |
| fynn | jrib: with no feedback, I cannot know where it fails :( | 15:16 |
| Sa19 | jrib: Okay | 15:16 |
| theadmin | liminal: Upgrade via the console -> "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade" | 15:16 |
| fynn | penguin42: I have, and that works. | 15:16 |
| penguin42 | Take0n: using 'convert' from the imagemagick package | 15:16 |
| hammer | Hello | 15:16 |
| jrib | fynn: are you... using gdm? | 15:16 |
| Take0n | penguin42, thank you! | 15:16 |
| penguin42 | fynn: Hmm that's a pain - from a terminal it's likely to show you the error | 15:16 |
| bullgard4 | jrib To see how this program functions. | 15:16 |
| fynn | penguin42: also, sourcing .bashrc.disabled from a text-terminal works. | 15:16 |
| jrib | bullgard4: read its source | 15:16 |
| fynn | jrib: sure. | 15:17 |
| liminal | theadmin : i get an error segmentation faulty tree... 50% | 15:17 |
| jrib | fynn: what happens after you press login at gdm? | 15:17 |
| red | Is there any software like Emule for Ubuntu? | 15:17 |
| penguin42 | fynn: My guess is something in it is changing a path or library path to miss some of the bins used by the gui | 15:17 |
| liminal | ivno idea what it means | 15:17 |
| fynn | penguin42: any way I can try to login graphically, yet get it to show me the error? | 15:17 |
| bullgard4 | jrib I do not appreciate your advice. This takes too much time for this task. | 15:17 |
| penguin42 | fynn: If you login on a console an then do startx does it work? | 15:17 |
| Sa19 | Since I changed my GDM theme the login screen will not appear. I get a black screen with a 'busy' cursor and it just hangs. I did ctrl alt F1 and started a new instance of Xorg but every time I try to change the GDM screen back I get reverted back to the blank screen and busy cursor. | 15:18 |

| theadmin | liminal: ...I dunno what the. Try "sudo touch /forcefsck" and reboot | 15:19 |
| penguin42 | fynn: ctrl-alt-f1, login (username/pass) and then from the $ prompt do startx | 15:19 |

| bullgard4 | jrib Certainly this is a method to become acquainted with it thoroughly. But it takes too much time. A much more effective methode to become acquainted with a graphical program is to call it and see how it looks, what can I enter and what will be its output. | 15:21 |

| greezmunkey | exs: I've seen that ?? asked in here several times. The trick would be to read what Nautilus's current directory is at the time ;) | 15:22 |

| KRiMoRaL | Quick question, I know all about the window controls moved to the left, and am fine with it and support the idea. They are supposed to be in the order CLOSE, MIN, MAX I believe. I changed the theme to see what the others looked like, and when I did it moved them to the right. Didn't like it so I changed them back, and it put them back on the left, but in the wrong order. How can I change the order of the window controls back to CL | 15:22 |
| KRiMoRaL | OSE, MIN, MAX instead of MAX, MIN, CLOSE ? | 15:22 |

| acicula | vik22 oh like so if you are partitioning just name and label the disk, and format options etc, but dont specify a mount point, it will default to /media when you want to access it from ubuntu | 16:19 |
| acicula | vik22, default to /media/<disklabel> | 16:19 |
| tic^ | bazhang: I like the desktops clean in there own partitions. | 16:19 |
| bazhang | Xethron, try something lighter like lxde | 16:19 |
| bazhang | Xethron, how much ram what cpu | 16:20 |
| rocket16 | tic^: I think, delete Kubuntu, and use Kubuntu-Desktop on Ubuntu, as an extra installation | 16:20 |
| acicula | vik22, you should be able to provide a custom mount point during partitioning though | 16:20 |

| minimec | theadmin: I told him both options, and why don't we use sudo gedit? | 17:11 |
| niko-mojo | minimec - ok , new machine so should take long - :) | 17:11 |
| theadmin | minimec: Because it uses root's configs | 17:11 |
| niko-mojo | minimec : not take long ... | 17:11 |
| rafaelsoaresbr | Dr_Willis, that worked, thanks | 17:11 |
| doomed | icedwater: any help? | 17:11 |
| zipper | onetinsoldier: now i've got another problem | 17:11 |
| minimec | theadmin: I see... THX | 17:11 |
| Six6siX | !root | 17:11 |
| ubottu | Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 17:11 |
| icedwater | I'm not too sure about your case, but maybe you can try booting with a live USB or CD, then going into chroot and changing the screen resolution there. Or something like that. | 17:11 |
| Polemus | IdleOne: I installed a previous version of lacie using terminal... how can i uninstall it now? | 17:11 |
| airtonix | zipper, i already told you that. and ~/.jdownloader won't contain the program. | 17:12 |
| zipper | onetinsoldier: can't seem to run the system | 17:12 |
| IdleOne | Polemus: what command did you use to install? | 17:12 |
| Six6siX | nevermind i've managed to do sudo su & passwd to set the password | 17:12 |
| zipper | airtonix: i prolly missed that but thanks... | 17:12 |
| theadmin | Holy cow! Running nmap on microsoft.com gives such a hilarious result... the guys have all ports open | 17:12 |
| airtonix | zipper, type in a terminal : java --version | 17:12 |
| Dr_Willis | Six6siX: good luck.. dont trash your system | 17:12 |
| doomed | icedwater: can you tell me where is the details of the boot screen stored so that i can modify them? :( i am on the live cd now | 17:12 |
| icedwater | I remember that there were some pretty dire warnings about startup manager, etc. | 17:12 |
| qcjn2 | hi, if i make a back up from ext3 to ntfs, if i get back thes data , the permission , won't work anymore ? is that right ? | 17:12 |
| Six6siX | thx | 17:12 |
| Polemus | IdleOne: sudo dpkg --force-architecture -i 4l_1.0-r6_i386.deb .... but i see it's the same version:-D | 17:12 |
| airtonix | zipper, sorry its : java -version | 17:12 |
| Dr_Willis | Six6siX: 'sudo passwd' was enough :) sudo su - is redundant. | 17:13 |
| zipper | airtonix: java version "1.6.0_18" OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea6 1.8) (6b18-1.8-0ubuntu1) OpenJDK Client VM (build 14.0-b16, mixed mode, sharing) | 17:13 |
| Six6siX | btw when you say dont trash ur system.. what do u mean? | 17:13 |
| IdleOne | Polemus: leave it installed. you need it | 17:13 |
| airtonix | zipper, same as me. jdownloader doesn't run when you type : jdownloader (press enter) | 17:13 |
| Dr_Willis | Six6siX: the BIGGEST single danger ive seen to a ubuntu system - is the Users doing somthing to trash it theirselfs.. | 17:13 |
| icedwater | Hmm ... As I said, I'm not sure how it works exactly, but you can try installing startupmanager in the liveCD environment, hopefully if you chroot first then call it using the command line it will work. | 17:13 |

| IdleOne | Polemus: I dont have lightscribe so i couldn't say how the support is | 17:14 |
| guntbert | Six6siX: one point of using sudo is to make you conscious of the elevated priviledges, working as root makes you sometimes forget "who you are" | 17:14 |

| roberto_ | how can I bind altgr+ñ key as a dead key for the ~ accent so I can write things like não (portuguese) ? | 17:15 |

| Dr_Willis | Six6siX: you may want to set it where the ROot prompt is a Radically diffrent color also. | 17:15 |
| Dr_Willis | Theres more to 'sudo' then 'the command you do to get root stuff' | 17:15 |
| renata | theadmin, Ok, it looks like quantic physics to me :) | 17:15 |
| Six6siX | I always use su -.. so you see the # on the terminal | 17:15 |
| Dr_Willis | Six6siX: you may want to read up on sudo sometime soon | 17:16 |

| acicula | theGman, dns is typically dependent on your connection type, what are you trying to do exactly? | 17:18 |
| guntbert | Six6siX: read the links you got from ubottu, especially https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 17:18 |
| Dr_Willis | zipper: if 'jdownloader' works from the cli.. then its in the default path.. just make the icon launch jdownloader | 17:19 |
| airtonix | Dr_Willis, at the moment running jdownloader doesn't run it... i think there are problems with java at the moment. | 17:19 |
| acicula | doomed, use the livecd to recover your system and fix grub | 17:19 |

| lee_ | doomed: got ya, thanks | 17:20 |
| acicula | doomed, with newer versions you need the grub2 version of the page i think. but it comes down to booting your livecd, selecting recovery and issuing a command that resets/reinstalls grub or grub2 | 17:20 |

| IdleOne | Dr_Willis: I can confirm it takes 30 seconds if that to install jdownloader from PPA | 17:27 |
| airtonix | zipper, if you canceled the launch then you need to remove the ~/.jdownloader folder again. because interupting the initial launch corrupts the files within. | 17:27 |
| netharis | for instance, netharis@FOX:~$ fglrxinfo | 17:27 |

| netharis | it's a known issue but, all the solutions the say, didn't work for me | 17:28 |
| airtonix | Dr_Willis, 1) find link for something on rapidshare 2) insert link to tucan 3) start it 4) do something else 5)marvel at automatically downloaded file from rapidshare | 17:28 |
| randomusr_ | how can I create a shortcut that points to another folder? | 17:29 |
| airtonix | Dr_Willis, it might do, i prefer tucan to jdownloader because the plugins are in python format. | 17:29 |
| acicula | randomusr_, yeah with ln | 17:29 |
| Dr_Willis | airtonix: heh.. err.. i got a firefox extension that auto does that allready.. :) but i imagine this is all against the Rapodshare EULA. | 17:29 |
| netharis | @randomusr_, make a symblink | 17:29 |
| xangua | Dr_Willis: better to just copy the videos from your /tmp directory | 17:29 |
| minimec | |corpse|: so '-1' forces pci mode '0' disables KMS kernel mode settings. | 17:29 |

| onetinsoldier | netharis: if not, you might need to run 'aticonfig --initial' as root | 17:32 |
| netharis | it's the default | 17:32 |
| Dr_Willis | add a new user. run jdownloader from the menus.. it should set itself up | 17:32 |
| zipper | airtonix i will be back later on how to install it | 17:32 |

| atomati | I am trying to figure out why play/pause forward etc. buttons aren't responding for me when watching videos on sites. For example youtube, also other sites with video load but will not play video. I'm thinking its goto do with adobe. Can any one point me into the right direction please? | 17:36 |
| Cyanide_ | oppsss sorry | 17:36 |
| RevChas | I've run into a weird problem. I just updated all my packages, and now I can't log in through the console, but I can log in via ssh. If I change my password to a much shorter one (8 chars instead of 13) I can log in through the console. | 17:36 |
| undecim | atomati: It's a flash bug. Nothing much you can do about it | 17:37 |
| iosonoio | hello! anyone know if in the ubuntu 10.04 are the rt200usb driver present? | 17:37 |
| atomati | oh, ok :( | 17:37 |
| aguitel | how to know the drivers in use in my system | 17:37 |
| undecim | atomati: other than use spacebar to play/pause video and arrow keys to fast forward/rewind | 17:37 |
| onetinsoldier | aguitel: on the command line --> lsmod | 17:37 |
| CloudMonkee | omfg get that bug that hinders the whole OS | 17:38 |

| its | hello | 17:38 |
| freeman | how do you restore it if you lose it? | 17:38 |
| guntbert | RevChas: one idea: it could be a matter of wrong keyboard settings - or so -- please change your password to a long one but without any "special" characters and try to login from console again | 17:38 |
| iosonoio | hello! anyone know if in the ubuntu 10.04 are the rt200usb driver present? | 17:39 |

| acicula | CloudMonkee, what big bug | 17:39 |
| MikeChelen | freeman: that is indicator applet? | 17:39 |
| pokeh | freeman: It's under add to panel | 17:39 |
| minimec | pokeh: I think you do that in the keyboard-shortcuts tools in the system preferences menu | 17:39 |

| CloudMonkee | acicula, it's a window's manager bug. it just stops functioning | 17:39 |
| * freeman tries looking there (for the third time) | 17:39 | |
| atomati | ty for the answers, I'll start with that | 17:39 |
| CloudMonkee | acicula, you can no lnoger control your windows.. i had to migrate back to 10.04 | 17:40 |
| freeman | ok ty! | 17:40 |
| acicula | CloudMonkee, migrate back to 10.04 ? from where | 17:40 |
| * freeman should be nominated for "Noob of the Day"| | 17:40 | |
| CloudMonkee | i mean 9.10 hehe | 17:40 |
| freeman | ty, MikeChelen & pokeh | 17:40 |
| acicula | CloudMonkee, i see, what window manager where you using? | 17:40 |
| Noiano_ | is it possible to perform a netinstall making client download packages from local network and not the internet? | 17:40 |
| roberto_ | I need help with Nautilus-actions | 17:40 |
| CloudMonkee | the standard one. | 17:40 |
| acicula | Noiano_, yes, you have to create a local repository | 17:41 |
| MikeChelen | freeman: that applet has a funny name :) | 17:41 |
| pokeh | Does anyone know how to configure rhymbox to support playback control with an IR remote control? I have LIRC, and my remote is being recognized and the buttons are detected when pressed, I just can't get Rhytmbox to map itself to them.. | 17:41 |
| acicula | CloudMonkee, did the window decorations disappear or did the screen just freeze entirely | 17:41 |
| CloudMonkee | acicula, i have no rela knowledge of ubuntu. I was using the one you get automatically... Is GNOME the name of one? | 17:41 |
| RevChas | guntbert: That works, but I'm still puzzled because I've been using this keyboard since last year. | 17:42 |
| CloudMonkee | acicula, the top window where it has the name of the box it controls dissapeared | 17:42 |
| Noiano_ | acicula, how? I mean I successfully create the ftfp thing etc but the client connect to the internet, not to local network in order to download installation packages | 17:42 |
| * Dr_Willis wonders what CloudMonkee 's original bug was. | 17:42 | |
| acicula | CloudMonkee, Gnome is the environment, metacity is the default windows manager | 17:42 |
| theGman | How does one downgrade a specific app to a specific vers? Wine for instance..? | 17:42 |
| acicula | CloudMonkee, yeah that is metacity crashing alright | 17:42 |
| bazhang | theGman, use the wine repos | 17:42 |
| freeman | MikeChelen: yeah it couldn't be more vague, tbh | 17:42 |
| acicula | !netinstall | Noiano_ | 17:42 |
| ubottu | Noiano_: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall - Don't want to use a CD? See http://tinyurl.com/3exghs - See also !automate | 17:42 |
| Dr_Willis | !pin | theGman | 17:42 |
| ubottu | theGman: pinning is an advanced feature that APT can use to prefer particular packages over others. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PinningHowto | 17:42 |
| CloudMonkee | acicula, how would i get passed this problem. I truly hate 9.10. | 17:42 |
| bazhang | theGman, info on their site, perhaps in #winehq as well | 17:43 |
| Dr_Willis | theGman: in the past ive also removed wine. then downloaded/installed the specicic version i needed | 17:43 |
| magicbronson | i have update-manager-core installed but no update-manager executable is on my PATH. is there a command you can run to tell what package provides a particular executable? | 17:43 |
| acicula | CloudMonkee, you'd have to start metacity manually and see the output of why it crashes | 17:43 |
| RevChas | guntbert: Did something change in the authentication stuff that it now won't work properly with a close paren, ), in the password? | 17:43 |
| |corpse| | minimec: it may have gotten worse | 17:43 |
| magicbronson | (trying to upgrade from karmic to lucid) | 17:43 |
| minimec | pokeh: In fact you have to configure gnome, as these keys are loaded with the gnome-settings-daemon. They also work with Exaile, Banshee, Listen... | 17:43 |
| guntbert | RevChas: it seems that there happened something in the meantime --- after log in check your keyboard - and there are keyboard settings in the gdm too | 17:43 |
| magicbronson | (using instructions at http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/lucid/alpha2) | 17:43 |
| Dr_Willis | CloudMonkee: if you mean the 'title bar/controlls vanished' then set up where you use metacity not compiz. | 17:43 |
| CloudMonkee | acicula, is there a different windows manager htat I can use? | 17:43 |
| pokeh | minimec: okay, how can I do that? | 17:43 |
| Dr_Willis | CloudMonkee: the tool 'fusion-icon' can help automate this and recover when compiz crashes | 17:43 |
| geolr | Hi there! In Nautilus how to get a adressfield where I can type | 17:43 |
| theGman | Dr_Willis: Thx! In an other dist I used that was "frowned upon" so I thought I had better ask first...still new to ubuntu :) | 17:43 |
| Dr_Willis | CloudMonkee: theres dozens of window manages you can use | 17:44 |
| acicula | CloudMonkee, loads, metacity and compiz are provided as default, under appearances when you select the lower listed options for more graphic gimmicks it will switch to compiz windows manager | 17:44 |
| magicbronson | oh, this is a server that's not running X | 17:44 |
| guntbert | RevChas: no, but your keyboard may deliver a completely different character :) | 17:44 |
| Dr_Willis | theGman: wine is very much a 'hammer it till it works with your app you need to run' sort of thing | 17:44 |
| minimec | |corpse|: Hmm... You can open a console and 'sudo rm /etc/modropbe.d/radeon.conf and then run sudo update-initramfs -u -k -all again. Like that, everythig is undone. | 17:44 |

| sburwood | Let's say I have a list of people that I want to keep with various informations (address, phone number, etc). Where do I go to find the program to organize that? | 17:46 |
| minimec | pokeh: Check in xev, what exact output you get, whe you press some multimedia buttons on the keyboard. You should also have that info in the shortcuts menu I told you. | 17:46 |
| CloudMonkee | dr_willis, wow, i can't believe you're making a big deal out of opinions | 17:46 |
| jamal | contact | 17:46 |

| onetinsoldier | sburwood: does it need to be a gui app? i there's an ncurses one named 'abook' | 17:49 |

| acicula | danutzmilea, how are you installing oss4? | 17:49 |
| sburwood | I'd prefer something easy to use ... and why not gui? | 17:49 |

| ashdojfie | the strange item is that in read-only mode i can see all | 18:03 |
| Elladan | Guest58217: Yes, I believe you need a user= and pass= in there | 18:03 |
| ashdojfie | so the mount problem where is? | 18:03 |
| Elladan | Guest58217: See man mount.smbfs or man mount.cifs | 18:03 |
| acicula | ashdojfie, it mounts in read only because there are filesystem errors detected, the read only is to avoid corrupting the filesystem further | 18:04 |
| ashdojfie | ok, so i should check the filesystem and retry? | 18:04 |
| ashdojfie | is an ext4 | 18:04 |

| acicula | dgriffin831, depends on how you want to boot, you can put bootloaders on individual partitions and use one grub to choose between them | 18:06 |

| ubottu | fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo shutdown -F -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot | 18:08 |

| SwedeMike | CQ: so what do you want to happen to the blocks that are bad? | 18:20 |
| DJAshnar | So. No help on wubi? | 18:20 |
| dgriffin831 | Does the grub-set-default command set the default partition in menu.lst or does it acctually choose which particular partitions grub to use? | 18:20 |
| zipper | AH ha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! imma back and i have fixed the problemo airtonix | 18:20 |
| Dr_Willis | bsmith093: each user has a group thats the same as their uysername | 18:20 |
| CQ | SwedeMike: get the drive to not use them | 18:20 |

| zipper | Dr_Willis: how nice of u to say hi plus i have fixed da problemo | 18:21 |
| Dr_Willis | zipper: without resorting to a reformat/reinstall? | 18:21 |
| acicula | CQ, SwedeMike typically drives manage badblocks themselves once detected, so you should not use badblocks to flag blocks yourself unless your disk is so far gone that it cant do that | 18:21 |
| === Radio-a is now known as Radio-l | ||

| CQ | acicula: fsck doesn'T complete its run and tells me to run it manually... | 18:22 |
| acicula | CQ, so run it manually and see what happens | 18:22 |
| CQ | SwedeMike: i don't care about the data on that partition, i just backed it up | 18:22 |
| zipper | Dr_Willis: now i can teach ppl to install it the safe way | 18:22 |
| acicula | CQ, without the badblocks | 18:22 |
| greezmunkey | I just realized the Brasero isn't included in Lucid...after installing k3b | 18:22 |
| CQ | acicula: I get error messages for reading certain blocks, it then asks me if I want to ignore the error, and if I say yes, if I want to force a rewrite ... | 18:22 |
| zipper | Dr_Willis: alright ciao | 18:23 |
| GeekSquid | greezmunkey: Indeed, and in my expierence, most users here own their machines, or are super admins on them, so, they can do what they want | 18:23 |
| SwedeMike | CQ: then you can just mkfs that partition and restore, then the blocks will be fine when data is written to them again (if the drive still has spare sectors to use instead of the bad ones) | 18:23 |
| tadas | i have karmic with kde on my pentium m 1.8g with ati mobility radeon x700. It uses battery within an hour, while windows xp works for more than 2.5h. How do i make my karmic use less energy? | 18:23 |
| greezmunkey | GeekSquid: ;) | 18:23 |
| acicula | CQ, that can happen, so force a rewrite | 18:23 |
| SwedeMike | CQ: use smartctl (from smartmontools) to make sure you don't have too many reallocated sectors on the drive. | 18:23 |

| erUSUL | NobodyKnows: right click on it. | 19:20 |
| erUSUL | !grub2 | khem_ | 19:21 |
| ubottu | khem_: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 | 19:21 |
| rocket16 | NobodyKnows: Lol, right click on it, and select "Delete panel" | 19:21 |

| DiverDude | erUSUL, but is there just a command to restart X ? | 19:23 |
| Jon- | erUSUL: I really don't know what to tell you. The man page references environmental variables everywhere, never a config file | 19:23 |
| Dr_Willis | NobodyKnows: set it to autohide very fast. | 19:23 |
| khem_ | why is there not a /sbin/grub in my system_ | 19:24 |

| NobodyKnows | erUSUL: Thanks for the help, I guess I'll have to live with this | 19:24 |
| erUSUL | DiverDude: sudo restart gdm | 19:24 |

| erUSUL | Jon-: no need for the language | 19:25 |
| erUSUL | writte* | 19:25 |
| Jon- | erUSUL: It is not in ~./.bashrc or ~/.profile | 19:25 |
| Debjit | harrumph: use "grep" instead of "find" | 19:25 |
| Addle | help me pleas | 19:25 |
| erUSUL | Jon-: create the line yourself | 19:25 |
| GeekSquid | !ask | Addle | 19:25 |

| Polydwarf | I'm trying to figure out how to diagnose slow network (maybe filesystem) performance... Writing to a samba share/scp'ing to my ubuntu machine is pathetic (maybe 2MB/sec), but reading from it is 100+ MB/sec via samba, but 15 MB/sec via scp. This wasn't a problem in 9.10 with the same hardware :( Any ideas on how to start troubleshooting? | 19:26 |
| Jon- | erUSUL: in ~/.bashrc? | 19:26 |
| erUSUL | Jon-: do not put the dollar sign | 19:26 |
| erUSUL | Jon-: yes | 19:26 |
| erUSUL | Jon-: when declaring variables you do not use the $ | 19:26 |
| leleobhz | ive created a encrypted pendrive using karmic and now with lucid the automounting (asking password automatically) dont work | 19:26 |
| erUSUL | Jon-: only when using them | 19:26 |
| leleobhz | someone know what should i do? | 19:26 |
| roberto_ | Dr_Willis: http://www.pastebin.org/210901 -- this is how I am calling it. that same command from the commandline works | 19:26 |
| Vigo | Polydwarf: nmap, zenmap or umit? | 19:27 |
| Jon- | erUSUL: Single quote around string literals only? What about an int? | 19:27 |
| Debjit | harrumph: If you are searching for "foo" in the contents of a file then grep -r "foo" *... | 19:27 |
| erUSUL | Jon-: i.e you can run this in a terminal « hi="Hello World!!!" ; echo $hi » | 19:27 |
| cabbrick1243 | Does X driver 173 support the Nvidia GeForce 6x series? | 19:27 |
| Debjit | harrumph: -r is for recursive search | 19:27 |
| Polydwarf | Vigo : I wouldn't think those would be useful, when it's a speed problem one-way? | 19:27 |
| Polydwarf | Vigo : I'll give them a shot, though. | 19:27 |
| harrumph | Debjit: so for the system: grep -r "foo" / rigth? | 19:27 |
| Jon- | erUSUL: For a port value do i need to enclose it in single quotes? | 19:28 |
| erUSUL | Jon-: there is no need but i wouldn't hurt | 19:28 |
| Dr_Willis | roberto_: perhaps make a bash script that gets called that then launches your other script. Ive no idea on any ruby codeing. Ive only done my nautilus scripts in bash. | 19:28 |
| roberto_ | Dr_Willis: I'm telling you, it works from the commandline | 19:28 |
| Debjit | harrumph: what do you want to search for? | 19:28 |
| Vigo | Polydwarf: I was just suggesting them as they might show you where the fail is. | 19:28 |
| roberto_ | Dr_Willis: try it yourself | 19:28 |
| harrumph | Debjit: the string "foo" anywhere on the syste | 19:28 |
| JordanGbob | I've got a problem with GDM, could anybody help me? | 19:28 |
| Dr_Willis | roberto_: So make a bash script that explitly calls it from the commabnd line.. its possible nautilus is using sh instead of bash so that may be the issue. | 19:29 |
| harrumph | Debjit: meaning in a file anywhere on the system | 19:29 |
| PeterDrop | how i know what audio sistem iam using? ( alsa u other ...) | 19:29 |
| Debjit | harrumph: in the contents of a file or the name? | 19:29 |

| jozefk | anybody experience something like that? | 19:32 |

| GeekSquid | ernie_: in your home folder, it is hidden Ctrl-H to unhide/hide | 19:41 |
| ernie_ | jrib, thanks, I'll give it a shot | 19:41 |
| Jon- | erUSUL: can I provide additional command line arguments to it? | 19:41 |
| delemi | minimec My mistake I came into the chat a little late | 19:41 |
| Dr_Willis | frxstrem: you cound 'nmap' to scan the network. | 19:41 |
| Polemus1 | airtonix: i feel like an idiot :-D can't find anything... | 19:41 |
| minimec | delemi: ;) | 19:41 |

| nickkontos | hello guys, i live in a foresaken place called greece, and all I want in my life is 10-20 shinny ubuntu stickers for my machines :/ so far the solutions I found are way too expensive (50euros for 100 stickers - including transport) any sugestions? | 19:41 |
| ernie_ | GeekSquid, I couldn't find it in there. I did unhide the files and folders | 19:41 |
| delemi | minimec how do you like E17? | 19:41 |
| Polemus1 | Dr_Willis: that's where i got it from... i did wget to download... then i installed it... now i am clueless | 19:41 |
| abhijain | happy mothers day to all of you | 19:41 |
| erUSUL | Jon-: afaics yes | 19:41 |
| erUSUL | Jon-: let me check | 19:42 |
| Dr_Willis | Polemus1: if you log out/back in it may appear in the menus. Ive not used the stuff in ages | 19:42 |
| GeekSquid | nickkontos: buy some avery labels, make them yourself | 19:42 |
| cabbrick1243 | maco: nope didn't work... It is very hard to find documentation on that to | 19:42 |
| airtonix | Polemus1, can't find the deb file ? you used wget right? so the deal with wget is that it dumps files you ask it to get in the current working directory. so assuming you still have the terminal window open that you used and haven't changed directory then that will indicate where it is | 19:42 |
| Nub | I have a portable hard drive NTFS connected via usb. I am trying to copy 30GB of files to it. Four times I have tried, and after copy about 10GB or so, the drive suddenly unmounts incorrectly... | 19:42 |
| VCoolio | delemi: it's awesome, very light, very good; takes some investigating at start to compile but totally worth it | 19:42 |
| minimec | delemi: I love it for years. I am using it in two dual screen computer setups. It is a the perfect solution for a dual screen setup. | 19:42 |
| airtonix | Dr_Willis, is lightscribe a daemon or user app ? | 19:42 |
| CloudMonkee | dr_willis, do you know how to fix flash with visual effects enabled for browsing online with flash apps(for some reason they don't work or respond right). | 19:43 |
| minimec | airtonix: User app. there are to apps to burn lightscripe cd's | 19:43 |
| donaldo | how to enable surround toshiba laptop? | 19:43 |
| Dr_Willis | airtonix: last i used it. its a user app. but there was 2 packages that had to be installed.. and i think there was an advanced labler and a basic labaler. | 19:43 |
| Dr_Willis | CloudMonkee: ive no problems with them here. | 19:43 |
| erUSUL | Jon-: afaics yes | 19:43 |

| airtonix | Polemus1, once you find the deb file you can use gdebi to inspect its install payload manifest | 19:44 |
| webroasters | hey guys, quick question. Is there a ubuntu server irc? | 19:44 |
| Polemus1 | airtonix: i found the deb file and used gdebi... but i don't know what i am looking for :) | 19:44 |
| delemi | vcoolio: minimec: I burned it to a disk a few days ago and have it booted to a 64bit dual 3.8 xeon system at work and it reminds me of OSX. I was planning to put it on my laptop when my new hd comes for my laptop | 19:45 |

| Debjit | Nub: Have you tried dmesg to get the error, that can be helpful | 19:45 |
| Nub | do i do that in a terminal? | 19:45 |
| Debjit | Nub: ya | 19:46 |
| airtonix | Polemus1, look for an entry that is something like : /usr/bin/blah/blah | 19:46 |
| VCoolio | delemi: are you still talking about e17? maybe you mean some distro with it and a mac-theme with it? | 19:46 |
| Debjit | Nub: dmesg | tail -50 | 19:46 |
| Dunkan | hello kitty | 19:46 |
| Polemus1 | airtonix: i am looking at the "included files".... but i don't know what i have to look for to open the app :) ... i kis you not... i am very new to ubuntu | 19:46 |

| cabbrick1243 | Still need help reading TTY (Virtual Console) No longer Little dots thanks to Dr_Willis, but it is now just colorful squares where the text should be, mirrored on the screen | 19:47 |
| Nub | not sure what i am looking at | 19:47 |
| Jon- | erUSUL: FYI: further command line args do not work. | 19:47 |
| Dr_Willis | Polemus1: once ya install the proper 3 packagtes - the command is '4L-gui' | 19:47 |
| airtonix | Dr_Willis, hooray for obscure commands | 19:47 |
| Jon- | erUSUL: I can just specify the port argument manually everytime, it's just annoying. | 19:47 |
| VCoolio | delemi: ok, well, the default theme is black and white (very cool), but I guess you mean the dock then in some screenshots (which is itask-ng btw and doesn't come with e17 by default); but definitely give it a shot | 19:47 |
| CloudMonkee | dr_willis, umm, if you have visual effects enabled, go to www.youtube.com and try to manipulate some videos with the buttons. The flash doesn't work correctly with visual effects enabled | 19:47 |
| minimec | delemi: It is definitly worth a try. I don't use the ecomorph compiz version. Just clean good e17 ;) | 19:48 |
| Debjit | Nub: look for the device name of the NTFS volume | 19:48 |
| Debjit | Nub: and the whatever associated with it | 19:48 |
| Nub | Debjit: not sure what I am looking at | 19:48 |
| Dr_Willis | CloudMonkee: the 'buttons' problem depends on a lot of other things it seems. compiz somehow shows a Bug thats in flash. theres several fix's out on the net. | 19:48 |
| Nub | Oh, ok | 19:48 |
| delemi | I will play with it in a few days. My laptop hd has head knocking. | 19:49 |
| Polemus1 | Dr_Willis: thanx... i did all the steps.. i also installed lacie... however, lacie doen't support text... only images... so i then installed an app from lightscribe's website (whick is a simple labeling tool)... now i don't know how to access that tool | 19:49 |

| luketheduke | hello, my root partition doesn't get a symlink in /dev/disk/by-uuid. blkid doesn't show it either. restarting udev or doing partprobe doesn't do anything. I had to change the grub entry to use the /dev/sdc1 device that is my root directly... anybody know why that could be? | 19:50 |
| CloudMonkee | dr_willis, how would you point me into the direction of one? | 19:50 |

| danielbw | How can I get someone to help me with my problem? Is my description too vague? | 19:50 |

| Dr_Willis | CloudMonkee: http://sites.google.com/site/alucidfs/how-i-do | 19:50 |
| electhor | bdi: Follow the instructions at medibuntu or sudo apt-get install restricted extras | 19:50 |

| minimec | Polemus1: Dr_Willis You probably need sudo rights to run that... Both lightscripe programms need sudo rights or an adapted groups file. | 20:04 |
| mateusz | Just burn the ISO just like you would on a CD | 20:04 |
| electhor | crankharder: As long as it is burned as an image, it should not matter if it is a dvd or cd | 20:04 |
| crankharder | Dr_Willis: looks like the doc for that is out of date for 10.4: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick | 20:04 |
| Jordan_U | litropy: In Ubuntu everything is already routed through the pulseaudio sound server, which can transfer streams through the network. | 20:04 |
| gebUK | hi has anybody here managed to get nginx running with php on their machines? | 20:04 |
| slashfoo | hello guys | 20:04 |
| Polemus1 | Dr_Willis: $ /opt/lightscribeApplications/SimpleLabeler/SimpleLabeler ........................ $: command not found | 20:04 |
| Dr_Willis | minimec: i dident need them just now. the docs mention using sudo.. but THEN they also say 'These packages install programs as setuid root, which means that they run with full system privileges and could be a security risk. ' | 20:04 |
| distant_voice | ever since upgrading to 10.4 ubuntu doesn't recognize my cd drive anymore. can anybody help? | 20:04 |
| litropy | Jordan_U: thank you, now joining #pulseaudio | 20:05 |
| Dr_Willis | Polemus1: the $ is not part of the command. thats the bash prompt | 20:05 |
| MightyTweek | Hey all, I've just upgraded to 10.04 and when I turn on visual effects the title bars disappear from all my windows. I'm using a laptop with Intel 945GM integrated graphics if that helps | 20:05 |
| Dr_Willis | minimec: so needing sudo to run suid programs.. seems.. weird. | 20:05 |
| minimec | Dr_Willis: That is possibl, as this is old and never maintained software. Both applications are very basic. | 20:05 |
| distant_voice | mightytweek: do you have the compiz configuration thingy installed? | 20:05 |
| TommyThaGun | is there a way to control the volume of sound in GDM? | 20:05 |
| Dr_Willis | minimec: yep. I dont even have a LS drive in this box any more. | 20:06 |
| Dr_Willis | LS - neat idea.. that was a pain to use. | 20:06 |
| MightyTweek | distant_voice, how would I check? | 20:06 |
| Polemus1 | Dr_Willis: oh :-D ...... now i get ..... /opt/lightscribeApplications/SimpleLabeler/SimpleLabeler: error while loading shared libraries: liblightscribe.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory | 20:06 |
| Dr_Willis | Polemus1: that guide mentions needing to do a 'sudo ldconfig' | 20:06 |
| TommyThaGun | nevermind, I at least figured out how to turn off the sound that is played | 20:07 |
| can__ | how can i do "System Settings->Advanced->Service Manager and turning off "Detecting RANDR (monitor) changes"" via console? | 20:07 |
| ubuntu_ | hello i am new to ubuntu and i would really like to install 10.04 but i cant get my printer to work, could someone help me configure it correctly please | 20:07 |
| slashfoo | guys I'm presenting the same issue as the OP of the thread at http://goo.gl/vmKK is that caused ONLY by corrupted/bad filesystems? | 20:07 |
| awakeash | Hmmmm http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/LswCv4TU | 20:08 |
| minimec | Dr_Willis: Polemus1 I have one of these lightscribe drives and sometimes use it. The results are really ok, but the 'sudo' problem was also surprising for me. | 20:08 |
| TheAwesomeGuy | hey | 20:09 |
| airtonix | w3l54666, still doesnt show up in the tray icon ? | 20:09 |
| Polemus1 | Dr_Willis: sudo apt-get install ia32-libs worked for me !!!!! | 20:09 |
| TheAwesomeGuy | cannot open `/dev/tty': No such device or address | 20:09 |
| minimec | Polemus1: UNfortunately my 'lightscribe' computer is still on jaunty, as it is my wirking horse... ;) | 20:09 |
| w3l54666 | nope | 20:09 |
| Dr_Willis | Polemus1: yep - it pays to follow the guide. :) | 20:09 |
| TheAwesomeGuy | im getting this error when running gpg from php with shell_exec() | 20:09 |
| w3l54666 | nor on network manager | 20:09 |
| Polemus1 | Dr_Willis: THANX A MILLION | 20:09 |
| airtonix | w3l54666, did you say you were usign lucid or karmic ? | 20:10 |
| w3l54666 | :S confused | 20:10 |
| w3l54666 | im using 10.04 | 20:10 |
| w3l54666 | new release | 20:10 |
| onetinsoldier | that's Lucid | 20:10 |
| emghazal | I can't find a way to remove the evolution envelope icon (http://imagebin.org/96127). I uninstalled Evolution altogether. I can't remove the indicator applet because I want the sound, bluetooth, and power icons. And I tried looking at gconf-editor but found nothing. Any ideas? | 20:10 |
| airtonix | w3l54666, ok nicknamed lucid it is. can you check for hardware drivers please > system menu > admin > hardware drivers | 20:11 |
| Jon- | Anyone with experiance setting up mpd and mpc? I wanted to revert to the default port and address, so I did an apt-get autoremove --purge mpd mpc && sudo apt-get install mpc mpd the issue is: mpc doesn't see mpd. gmpc sees it no problem. Help? | 20:11 |
| distant_voice | ever since upgrading to 10.4 ubuntu doesn't recognize my cd drive anymore. can anybody help? | 20:11 |
| w3l54666 | i aint on the net on it | 20:11 |
| w3l54666 | does it matter? | 20:11 |
| airtonix | w3l54666, also visti pastebin.com and then copy and paste the output of : iwconfig there then give the link to resulting page here | 20:11 |
| airtonix | w3l54666, ah right, not at this stage no. | 20:12 |
| impactto | connect #ubuntu-br | 20:12 |
| MightyTweek | emghazal, I think the envelope icon is just part of the indicator applet | 20:12 |

| cabbrick1243 | Ok i'm back a again and i still haven't been able to find to much help on this isssue. When Ubuntu Lucid 64 bit boots, the screen that should say ubuntu has discoloration (major) Also when exiting to TTY (Virtual Console) the text on it is replaced by multicolored blocks in the place of the text. I really need some help with this. | 20:15 |
| emghazal | MightyTweek: So there is no way to remove it? It's bad enough indicator-applet has more spacing than Notification Area and looks inconsistent. Now I'll also have to live with a useless icon there? :( | 20:16 |
| wk_exeon | how do i install a .inf | 20:16 |

| wk_exeon | it is | 20:17 |
| Dr_Willis | cabbrick1243: part 1 sounds like a typical Plymouth issue. Its using a low-color driver for the system because of your video card. | 20:18 |
| onetinsoldier | distant_voice: i probably won't be able to help. but what kind of port is the cdrom drive on? parallel? or sata? | 20:18 |
| andrikos1996 | Hallo | 20:18 |
| Dr_Willis | cabbrick1243: the 2nd sounds like a framebuffer/console conflict with the X drivers. | 20:18 |
| frxstrem | does anyone here know how to install PHP 5.3 on Ubuntu? | 20:18 |
| andrikos1996 | Hallo Zolo | 20:18 |

| steelbox | I have parasites on my sound speakers, how can I suppress that plz? | 20:19 |
| cabbrick1243 | Dr_Willis: Ok, should i try a reinstall of ubuntu? the card is an Nvidia Geforce 6150 se (or whatever the seconversion is) | 20:20 |
| newuserD | Is it not baised on intel.... | 20:20 |
| Dr_Willis | steelbox: You have small insects on yoru speakers? | 20:20 |
| frxstrem | winXPuser: I meant installing with APT, not from source | 20:20 |
| onetinsoldier | Dr_Willis: i was gonna say..... bug spray, lol | 20:20 |
| Dr_Willis | cabbrick1243: i doubt if that will matter. some nvidia cards have some issues with Plymouth. thats just how it is. | 20:20 |
| Dr_Willis | cabbrick1243: You are using the nvidia drivers from the repos? | 20:20 |
| cabbrick1243 | ok thanks | 20:20 |
| cabbrick1243 | yes | 20:21 |
| wk_exeon | it intel hdmi driver | 20:21 |
| Polemus1 | how can i add a shortcut in the menu to: /opt/lightscribeApplications/SimpleLabeler/SimpleLabeler | 20:21 |
| steelbox | I have parasites on my sound speakers, how can I suppress that plz? | 20:21 |
| Dr_Willis | Polemus1: with the alacarte menu editor .. | 20:21 |
| newuserD | thank you Dr_willis :D | 20:21 |
| Dr_Willis | steelbox: use bug spray? or clarify the question. | 20:21 |
| cabbrick1243 | Dr_Willis: Yes i was, i should probably look on their site, but the one problem i've hear with that is the kernel updates will screw it up later on | 20:22 |
| steelbox | bug spray? | 20:22 |
| winXPuser | frxstrem, maybe sudo apt-get install php | 20:22 |
| Polemus1 | Dr_Willis: I supose i need to install it.. or does it come out the box with lucid? | 20:22 |
| Dr_Willis | steelbox: we have NO IDEA what you mean by 'parasites' - those are blood sucking insects.. last i looked.. | 20:22 |
| newuserD | lol | 20:22 |
| onetinsoldier | steelbox: well.. parasite's are consdiered to be bugs, like insects | 20:22 |
| Dr_Willis | Polemus1: no idea. try alt-f2 alacarte and find out | 20:22 |
| steelbox | Dr_Willis: lol okay | 20:23 |

| steelbox | and it happens even without playing any audio/video files | 20:24 |
| pun84 | just got a power outage, now i get "The disk drive for / is not ready yet or not present" | 20:24 |

| alex2010 | hello, I can't get X started with a GeForce Go 6100 on 10.04, though it worked fine in the live CD, and when I run startx too | 20:24 |
| Dr_Willis | steelbox: you mean to say it makes a 'pop/crackle' every few min.. right befor a sound plays? | 20:24 |
| onetinsoldier | wk_exeon: perhaps with wine... but i doubt it. .inf file is pretty much an ms windows thing | 20:24 |
| wk_exeon | hdmi driver 4 intel | 20:24 |
| pun84 | anyone ? | 20:24 |
| cabbrick1243 | steelbox: go to system>preferences>sound , click on the hardware tab, and change the device profile to one until you find one that works | 20:25 |
| steelbox | without playing audio files | 20:25 |
| Ower | hello pun84 | 20:25 |
| Dr_Willis | CogitoErgoSam: I would use 'tr' to remove tabs:tr -d '\011' <test.txt >out.txt | 20:25 |
| alex2010 | it is driving me absolutely nuts because I know the card works, but GDM simply refuses to run it | 20:25 |

| cabbrick1243 | visof: hi | 20:43 |
| Oddbio | is using "netcat" a slow method of tansfering a file? I actually thought it was faster than other methods. I ask because I recently wanted to send an 11.5 GB file using netcat and it took a few hours. Perhaps that is normal though, and it just seems like a long time because I've never sent a file that big before.. Also, The two computers are on the same network, so it's not across the internet. | 20:43 |
| Samekh93 | jrib: any reliable way to convert an NTFS partition? | 20:43 |
| jrib | Samekh93: what kind of games were you considering? | 20:43 |

| jrib | Samekh93: you want to run that through wine? Or is that a native game? | 20:44 |
| cofee | wazzupppp | 20:44 |
| Samekh93 | jrib: It will be through wine | 20:44 |
| frxstrem | how can you undo 'sudo passwd root'? | 20:44 |
| jrib | Samekh93: it's probably fine through wine | 20:44 |
| cabbrick1243 | visof: use Desktop Drapes from the software manager | 20:44 |

| Samekh93 | jrib: thank you. | 20:44 |
| winXPuser | MichaelKohler, no, this state can't be saved, this is user's preference; in the very best case you can set it in adobe pdf printer properties (properties button next to printer name in print dialog) | 20:45 |
| jrib | Samekh93: there's no way to convert ntfs to ext* that I know of | 20:45 |
| Samekh93 | no way to convert that partition? like you can convert fat32 to ntfs in windows | 20:45 |

| roberto__ | modprobe: sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/em8300 | 21:03 |
| sebsebseb | linux_is_my_hero: a virtual machine allows you to run Windows inside a better OS such as Ubuntu | 21:03 |
| edgy360 | is there any way to use wifi on ubuntu server? | 21:03 |
| roberto__ | modprobe: paste lines 18-20 in there | 21:03 |
| onetinsoldier | brad__: and/or rnu gedit or whatever as root with 'gksu' | 21:03 |
| onetinsoldier | run* | 21:03 |
| sunil | hello | 21:03 |
| sebsebseb | linux_is_my_hero: it works great for most stuff, not 3D games though for example, well that depends I think on hardware actsauly these days and such | 21:04 |
| linux_is_my_hero | sebsebseb: how is that different from wine? it actually runs windows within ubuntu? | 21:04 |
| featherofmaat | sunil: certainly, most webcams should work out-of-box | 21:04 |
| featherofmaat | sunil: you can test it by using cheese | 21:04 |
| Guest94303 | Just upgraded to lucid lynx from karmic koala, have two nvidia cards and three monitors setup with xinerama... worked fine on kk, on ll the mouse goes berserk when I mouse into the monitor on the second card... but apps launch onto that screen and the keyboard input to them works fine. | 21:04 |
| === gnome_ is now known as lawford | ||
| awakeash | I'ts better with 2 hdd-s like 1-st hdd with Windows and linux virtualization on second hdd, you know stuff like I/O | 21:04 |
| modprobe | sudo mousepad /etc/modprobe.d/em8300 | 21:04 |
| sebsebseb | linux_is_my_hero: yes Wine basicaly is a compatiably layour that tricks apps into thinking they are running on Windows. where as a virtual machine will run Windows | 21:04 |
| brad__ | onetinsolder: Done | 21:04 |
| awakeash | bye bye | 21:05 |
| modprobe | roberto__: are there :) | 21:05 |
| linux_is_my_hero | sebsebseb: how do i get around the microsoft silverlight thing? | 21:05 |
| Guest94303 | what's wrong with my mouse when it goes to the second card? | 21:05 |
| roberto__ | modprobe: mousepad? -- hey, actually, name it "em8300.conf" if you want to stop seeing that error message | 21:05 |
| featherofmaat | guest94303: i'm gonna pass that one on to someone else lol, i've never even considered using multiple monitors | 21:05 |
| sebsebseb | linux_is_my_hero: as a result of course an Internet connected, vm could get infected by a virus or something, However since it's a vm, you get a nice security advantage over a pshyical install | 21:05 |
| sebsebseb | linux_is_my_hero: oh netflix needs silverlight? | 21:05 |
| modprobe | sudo mousepad /etc/modprobe.d/em8300.conf | 21:05 |
| linux_is_my_hero | sebsebseb: yeah | 21:05 |
| roberto__ | modprobe: save the file, quit gedit, and rerun the sudo modprobe line | 21:05 |
| sebsebseb | linux_is_my_hero: there's moonlight, which might do netflix | 21:05 |
| neorab | it doesn't | 21:05 |
| onetinsoldier | brad__: ok. i'll try to just go step by step. first, make a backup of the file /var/lib/dpkg/status | 21:06 |
| sebsebseb | linux_is_my_hero: if not you can maybe Wine silverlight, plus I expect Silverlight will work rather well in a WIndows virtual machine | 21:06 |
| neorab | netflix has said they are going to get us a linux player, but it hasn't happened yet | 21:06 |
| roberto__ | modprobe: works better on it the terminal app :P | 21:06 |
| neorab | I've run the web player in a VM before though | 21:06 |
| neorab | it works fine | 21:06 |
| sebsebseb | neorab: I think they used to support Linux? | 21:06 |
| linux_is_my_hero | sebsebseb: thats cool i didnt know we had that now. | 21:06 |
| neorab | it used to work with some trickery | 21:06 |
| modprobe | roberto__: hehe lol i get confused but still same after rerun | 21:06 |
| rawr | is there something akin to the older winamp on ubuntu? I just want to add music to a playlist and listen to it, I don't need the damn thing to do the laundry for me. I tried amarok, rhythmbox, banshee, and they're all terrible at what I want to do (i.e. listen to music) | 21:06 |
| sebsebseb | linux_is_my_hero: moonlight is a bit hrm though | 21:06 |
| neorab | but they went from WMP to Silverlight | 21:06 |
| tim__b | Did anyone manage to install lucid using the alternate cd on a system with intel mobile GM965/GL960 graphic controller? Running into a black screen after first selection menu (language/instal, etc) | 21:07 |
| neorab | rawr: xmms | 21:07 |
| sebsebseb | linux_is_my_hero: just like Silverlight, it's best to avoide them as much as possible, ideally | 21:07 |
| linux_is_my_hero | sebsebseb: what do u mean "hrm"? | 21:07 |
| rawr | neorab, I just installed that, it's not "new and improved" with a server/client architecture which doesn't seem to work at all | 21:07 |
| rawr | -not | 21:07 |
| brad__ | onetinsoldier: ok done :) | 21:07 |
| roberto__ | modprobe: do a "ls -la /etc/modprobe.d and check that the permissions on that file are the same as on the others | 21:07 |
| Guest94303 | anyone had any luck getting the nvidia proprietary drivers running on lucid lynx? | 21:07 |
| modprobe | roberto__: oh wait could it be that the unknown parameter in line 9 of the url i gave u is the cause | 21:07 |
| sebsebseb | linux_is_my_hero: that's off topic for the Ubuntu channel, but Silverlight and Moonlight are not good technologies, for various reasons. | 21:08 |
| onetinsoldier | brad__: ok, bear with me. i might go pretty slow. but we'll get there | 21:08 |
| modprobe | roberto__: look at the comment dots :p | 21:08 |
| brad__ | onetinsoldier: ditto | 21:08 |
| linux_is_my_hero | Guest94303: I'm running 'em right now | 21:08 |
| mrwes | I prefer my Netflix streamed to my PS3 | 21:08 |
| sebsebseb | linux_is_my_hero: however if you still want to do netflix, maybe Moonlight, or Silverlight in Wine, or yep Windows virtual machine should do it | 21:08 |
| neorab | rawr: are you sure you got xmms and not xmms2? | 21:08 |
| linux_is_my_hero | mrwes: i dont have the disc yet | 21:08 |
| rawr | neorab, ah right, that's xmms2 | 21:08 |
| lungan | Having som delay when unminimizing windows in ubuntu, minimizing goes well, but when unminimizing I have like a 0.5-1.0 sec delay which is pretty anyoing, fresh install and so on, is there anyway to fix this? | 21:08 |
| modprobe | roberto__: nm :( | 21:08 |
| mrwes | linux_is_my_hero, only takes a day to get it :) | 21:08 |
| neorab | xmms old school is almost identical to windows | 21:09 |
| linux_is_my_hero | im in military barracks and i dont trust the mail people on my ship | 21:09 |
| neorab | though it might not run anymore | 21:09 |
| sebsebseb | linux_is_my_hero: oh | 21:09 |
| sebsebseb | linux_is_my_hero: well try Moonlight or Silverlight in Wine, then I guess | 21:09 |
| brad__ | linux_is_my_hero: What part of the millitary you in? (If you dont mind me asking) | 21:09 |
| rawr | yeah I vaguely remember using it and it *not* choking down on 30k file playlists | 21:09 |
| linux_is_my_hero | navy | 21:09 |
| mrwes | linux_is_my_hero, Sony is going to have a future firmware where you won't need the disk. | 21:09 |
| roberto__ | modprobe: does it exist? | 21:09 |
| Polemus1 | where can i get k3b .deb file? | 21:10 |
| brad__ | linux_is_my_hero: Awesome :) | 21:10 |
| sebsebseb | Planet_x: you don't need to do that | 21:10 |
| linux_is_my_hero | mrwes: any info on that? | 21:10 |
| linux_is_my_hero | like a date? | 21:10 |
| sebsebseb | no not you Planet_x | 21:10 |
| roberto__ | modprobe: if [ -f /etc/modprobe.d/adv717x.conf ] ; then echo "yup" ; fi | 21:10 |
| __-osh-__ | lungan: I have abyssmal performance on my box atm. Seems that strigi is indexing lots of files so the machine is thrashing like hell. | 21:10 |
| sebsebseb | Polemus1: you don't need to do that, k3b is in the repo | 21:10 |
| linux_is_my_hero | brad__: yeah, i like it :-) | 21:10 |
| modprobe | roberto__: the swap redblue pal is in the config file /etc/modprobe.d/em8300 | 21:10 |
| Polemus1 | sebsebseb: how di i install it then? | 21:10 |
| onetinsoldier | brad__: do a search on the name of offending package in that file | 21:11 |
| mrwes | linux_is_my_hero, not until next year from what I've read | 21:11 |
| sebsebseb | Polemus1: sudo apt-get install k3b in the terminal | 21:11 |
| modprobe | roberto__: u think i can remove the option because its not supported apparently and get rid of the FATAL? | 21:11 |
| brad__ | ok | 21:11 |
| neorab | I've switched to mpd and couldn't ever see myself using regular audio players anymore | 21:11 |

| ubottu | linux_is_my_hero mrwes: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 21:11 |
| mrwes | linux_is_my_hero, someone from the mail room couldn't use it for your account, you know that correct? | 21:11 |
| roberto__ | modprobe: yes | 21:11 |
| mrwes | ok ok sebsebseb sorry brutha | 21:11 |
| roberto__ | modprobe: but if you get the same error again, then put it back | 21:11 |
| Polemus1 | sebsebseb: pfff... forgot the sudo... :) | 21:11 |
| madjestyr | So my 18 month old son was playing on my keyboard while I was busy and now my windows maximize as if there was a panel above them, and I only have one panel on bottom. Any suggestions? | 21:11 |
| rawr | neorab, I have the vague impression that xmms / beep /audacious will all implode if I try to load them in my tiling wm though | 21:11 |
| sebsebseb | Polemus1: oh | 21:11 |
| __-osh-__ | lungan: Like a 2-4 sec lag between klicking the menu button and actually seeing the menu... :-( | 21:12 |
| Polemus1 | sebsebseb: tx | 21:12 |
| sebsebseb | Polemus1: np | 21:12 |
| onetinsoldier | brad__: get rid of the entire section for each of the offending packages in that file | 21:12 |
| Daan | Hello, is there a 'teacher' program like openteacher that is special made for Ubuntu? | 21:12 |
| sebsebseb | Daan: hrm | 21:12 |
| neo_ryke | hi | 21:13 |
| brad__ | onetinsoldier: ok :) | 21:13 |
| neorab | rawr: that's probably true (depending on the wm) though you should be able to set it to be floating or otherwise not dynamic tile that app | 21:13 |
| roberto__ | Daan: check out edubuntu | 21:13 |
| sebsebseb | Daan: not sure, however it's worth asking in #edubuntu | 21:13 |
| neo_ryke | I installed Server Edition unf 10:04 php5-xdebug installed. With phpinfo () is also displayed, which is installed xdebug. Only the expenditure is not formatted, and the debugger starts and n ot. Anyone have experience with it? | 21:13 |
| onetinsoldier | brad__: :-) then of course save the file and tell me what happens | 21:13 |
| modprobe | roberto__: unexpected token fi? | 21:13 |
| Daan | roberto__: Ok, good point. | 21:13 |
| lungan | __-osh-__, anoying! | 21:13 |
| n1ghtcr4wler | BitchX-1.0c18+ by panasync - OpenBSD 4.7 | 21:13 |

| pun84 | My install wont load after I just got a power outage, on boot up it is saying "The disc drive for / is not ready yet or not present" " Continue to wait: or press S to skip mounting or M for manual recovery" what can i do?? | 21:14 |
| gkahla | anyone else having trouble with gwibber in 10.4? it updated once, and now won't show new posts... | 21:14 |
| pun84 | version 10.04 | 21:14 |
| roberto__ | modprobe: what --version of bash are you using? | 21:14 |
| vosti | hi all | 21:14 |
| Vigo | pun84: Have you checked the BIOS? | 21:14 |
| onetinsoldier | brad__: if these packages have installed files onto your filesystem, they'll still be there and you'll need to manually delete them. i believe i can tell you how to see where they are from just the package name | 21:14 |
| pun84 | nope, what should i be looking for? When i go into the manaul recovery, i still see /home and the contents | 21:15 |
| roberto__ | modprobe: anything over version 3.x should accept that, I think. it was all on one line ? | 21:15 |
| pun84 | it just wont go through the bootup process | 21:15 |
| Daan | roberto__, sebsebseb: There is no activity in #edubuntu... | 21:15 |
| neo_ryke | I installed Server Edition unf 10:04 php5-xdebug installed. With phpinfo () is also displayed, which is installed xdebug. Only the expenditure is not formatted, and the debugger starts and n ot. Anyone have experience with it? | 21:15 |

| sebsebseb | !patience | Daan | 21:16 |
| ubottu | Daan: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org while you wait. | 21:16 |
| modprobe | roberto__: what i did now is remove the option, dmesg: adv717x: Unknown parameter em8300 ? did i make it worse | 21:16 |
| Buds | Hello, I was wondering if anyone knew of a way to access a macbooks EFI (to disable floppy drive)?? | 21:16 |
| sebsebseb | Daan: ok not right factoid there | 21:16 |
| sebsebseb | Daan: well not right useage, of it | 21:16 |
| sky1 | I'm dual booting Windows 7 and Ubuntu 10.04, and I have some data hard drives. Should they be ext4 or NTFS? I assume NTFS would be preferred since it has the best cross compatibility with windows and ubuntu? (Windows having no ext4 support really) | 21:16 |
| Daan | ubottu: ok, ill repeat it. | 21:16 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 21:17 |
| Vigo | pun84: Many times after a power interrupt the BIOS date reverts Manufacture Time, might be a year or up to 10 off, also many many settings can be effected by it, walk carefully in that area. | 21:17 |
| vosti | help:) | 21:17 |
| vosti | i have a ati radeon 9200 M9+ 5C63 i need to install its drivers | 21:17 |
| GeekSquid | sky1: are the data drives currently NTFS? | 21:17 |
| NateWiebe | just did an update, rebooted, and firefox got REALLY slow.. anyone else having this problem? | 21:17 |
| brad__ | onetinsoldier: Ok so I edited the file, should I run an apt command to test? | 21:17 |
| NetLarIrvine | Is it still bad to install the proprietary drivers fro the NVidia card?? | 21:18 |
| sky1 | GeekSquid: Sadly they're currently ext4, but I can't read (or write) them on Windows and would like to. | 21:18 |
| Buds | anyone know of a way to access a macbooks EFI (to disable floppy drive)?? | 21:18 |
| roberto__ | modprobe: I'm not uderstanding why adv717x's error message is changing based on your changes to the config file for a different module: em8300 | 21:18 |
| NetLarIrvine | On 10.04? | 21:18 |
| onetinsoldier | brad__: yes | 21:18 |
| sky1 | GeekSquid: so I figure my best course of action is to deal with it, or to backup the data and format it as NTFS instead. | 21:18 |
| patdk-wk | sky1, ntfs is ok, but if you don't shutdown windows cleanly, then the ntfs driver in ubuntu will refuse to use them | 21:18 |
| patdk-wk | so fat32 *might* be a better solution | 21:18 |
| Vigo | pun84: Do you know how to get into BIOS on that box? | 21:18 |
| sky1 | fat32 is not a very good solution for 1+TB drives I do not think :P | 21:19 |
| patdk-wk | why I said *might* | 21:19 |
| __-osh-__ | sky1: I'm told that ntfs support is somewhat dangerous so if it's just for storing data go for FAT or something. However my experience with NTFS on Linux isn't all that fresh. Things might have improved. | 21:19 |
| roberto__ | modprobe: chat me in private please | 21:19 |
| modprobe | roberto__: how? | 21:19 |
| roberto__ | modprobe: see a sperate tab already opened from me ? | 21:19 |
| sky1 | patdk-wk: of course lol. Yeah I think NTFS is probably best as long as I shutdown nicely, but sadly it's going to be a pain to backup 2TB of data to format the drive from ext4. But as of right now its impossible to read/write from windows on them, which I think I'd rather be able to, even if ubuntu is going to the main OS | 21:20 |
| brad__ | onetinsoldier: Ok, well, wow, the bad packages are gone | 21:20 |
| onetinsoldier | brad__: roger. cool | 21:20 |
| brad__ | onetinsoldier: but now it just shows more bad packages | 21:20 |
| giant81 | have a problem with my audio in Ubuntu | 21:20 |
| GeekSquid | sky1: couple of options, either backup those data drives to NTFS drives or install this in windows http://www.ext2fsd.com/ | 21:20 |
| giant81 | 00:06.1 Audio device: nVidia Corporation MCP55 High Definition Audio (rev a2) | 21:20 |
| patdk-wk | sky1, how much free space on the drive? | 21:21 |
| vosti | i have a ati radeon 9200 M9+ 5C63 i need to install its drivers | 21:21 |
| w3l54666 | how do i black list the rt2800 driver? | 21:21 |
| onetinsoldier | brad__: ok, i guess i'd need to see a pastebin | 21:21 |
| anigma | is there a ubuntu server edition? | 21:21 |
| tom_fishy_ | hi, I have just recently installed Ubuntu 10.4. I used 9.10 for a few months but stoped because my video drivers (ati card) wasn't perfect. If I for instance watched a movie in VLC the whole video was messed up. If I played it in gnome-mplayer it was "okey" but not good. Now I have installed ubuntu as a virtual guest os with Virtualbox running from Windows 7. And even though I only have half the ram and so on I can p | 21:21 |
| tom_fishy_ | lay movies in VLC (720p x264) with no problem, which is very good! My question is now this, Will I get the same result If I install ubuntu not virtually or can I use virtualbox drivers (guest additions) because they seems to work better. | 21:21 |
| GeekSquid | anigma: yep, no GUI though | 21:21 |
| sky1 | I tried ext2fsd. I was able to get a listing of the root of the drive, but that was it, and I tried opening some files and the drive ended up getting corrupted :/ (and the files were gibberish). LUCILY fsck was able to fix the errors though (thank god lol) | 21:21 |
| brad__ | onetinsolder: http://pastebin.com/vXf7mEN1 | 21:22 |
| giant81 | should start with a little background. Tyan Motherboard, Dual Opteron system, Ubuntu 9.10 Desktop x64 | 21:22 |
| anigma | GeekSquid: that's perfect cause' I don't have a monitor.. | 21:22 |
| patdk-wk | sky1, sounds like you have ext4 with extents | 21:22 |
| patdk-wk | that is not ext2 compat :) | 21:22 |
| sebsebseb | !server | anigma | 21:22 |
| ubottu | anigma: Ubuntu Server Edition is a release of Ubuntu designed especially for server environments, including a server specific !kernel and no !GUI. The install CD contains many server applications. Current !LTS version is !Lucid (Lucid Lynx 10.04) - More info: http://www.ubuntu.com/products/whatisubuntu/serveredition - Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/ - Support in #ubuntu-server | 21:22 |
| sky1 | the 1.5TB drive has about 800GB free, and the 1TB drive has 160GB free. Yeah that's what I figured patdk-wk, I'm surprised there isn't better support though. It is the 'oh so godly' windows :P | 21:22 |
| onetinsoldier | brad__: are you running kbuntu? | 21:22 |
| Wilthril | hi guys | 21:23 |
| patdk-wk | heh? better support? | 21:23 |
| __-osh-__ | patdk-wk: Is there an upgrade path between ext3 and ext4? Or is ext4 only for new installs? | 21:23 |
| brad__ | onetinsoldier: no, ubuntu 10.04 | 21:23 |
| linux_is_my_hero | anyone know how to set up moonlight on lucid? | 21:23 |
| patdk-wk | ext4 is compat with ext2 and ext3 | 21:23 |
| patdk-wk | and you can upgrade any to ext4 | 21:23 |
| un214 | yes, but not me | 21:23 |
| winXPuser | !moonlight | 21:23 |
| ubottu | For Microsoft Silverlight support, install Moonlight with the following command: « sudo apt-get install moonlight-plugin-mozilla » in a terminal. | 21:23 |
| patdk-wk | but the new stuff in ext4 you can't upgrade to | 21:23 |
| winXPuser | um | 21:23 |
| patdk-wk | and if you use the new stuff in ext4, it's not backwards compat | 21:23 |

| patdk-wk | well, techincally ext3 isn't backwards compat with ext2, but | 21:23 |
| Wilthril | i have lots of trouble to disable my touchpad, someone can help me? | 21:24 |
| patdk-wk | sky1, personally, I never dualboot | 21:24 |
| patdk-wk | I have iwndows systems, and linux systems | 21:24 |
| patdk-wk | I don't mix them :) | 21:24 |
| patdk-wk | and my last windows system goes away this week | 21:24 |
| GeekSquid | sky1: you need to turn off the extents feature in ext4 see this http://www.soluvas.com/read-browse-explore-open-ext2-ext3-ext4-partition-filesystem-from-windows-7/ | 21:24 |
| Wilthril | i have the latest gpointing-device-settings but it disables the touchpad only for a few seconds... after that it's enabled again | 21:24 |
| sebsebseb | winXPuser: it's good to | username people so they get high lighted, when using factoids, otherwise they might miss it | 21:24 |
| sky1 | GeekSquid: oo I can turn it off... that might work. patdk-wk: I'm not that rich haha :P. I think my plan is to use windows mostly for games, and ubuntu for everything else, but haven't 100% decided yet lol | 21:25 |
| GeekSquid | sky1: another option would be to use a virtual machine of win7 and share the drives from linux | 21:25 |
| pup | I'm setting up a server for a friends wobsite, and I'm not positive I won't need help. | 21:25 |

| onetinsoldier | brad__: roger. those are more kde packages that are hosed. i don't know what the 'Exec error' is.. but | 21:26 |
| sky1 | GeekSquid: wait, you mean a linux VM in windows 7? Or a windows 7 VM in linux? | 21:26 |
| jrib | pup: only if you ask a question | 21:26 |
| sebsebseb | linux_is_my_hero: saw the answer, or did you miss it? | 21:26 |
| pup | I mean, if I do end up needing help... | 21:26 |

| linux_is_my_hero | sebsebseb: it just finished im gunna try it now :-) | 21:26 |
| onetinsoldier | brad__: all i can say is, it looks like you need to remove them from your edited 'status' file and try again | 21:26 |
| pup | But I do have a good question, now that you'll say it. | 21:26 |

| GeekSquid | sky1: it can only be turned off during the creation process of a ext4 drive, if you have room on another drive you could create a ext4 with no extent and backup each drive one at a time... I was saying win7 guest on linux host | 21:27 |
| Liberty | leave() | 21:27 |

| Flannel | Liberty: /part | 21:27 |
| Liberty | thanks | 21:27 |
| pup | is apache, mysql and php all I'll need? It's a wordpress blog | 21:27 |
| sebsebseb | linux_is_my_hero: yes I think Moonlight only has support for Silverlight 1 | 21:27 |
| linux_is_my_hero | why does lucid 086 have 4 desktops but not on my x64 machine (only 2)? | 21:27 |
| __-osh-__ | pup: What'll you use to power the website? Joomla? Drupal? Wordpress? | 21:27 |
| sebsebseb | linux_is_my_hero: or something like that | 21:27 |
| linux_is_my_hero | *x86 | 21:27 |
| brad__ | onetinsoldier: Ok, well I tried that, and it spat out more package errors | 21:28 |
| sebsebseb | linux_is_my_hero: the desktops on the panel you mean? | 21:28 |
| sky1 | geeksquid: I'm kinda scared to fool with the ext2fsd now though since it almost killed my data the first time. Ah okay so it might be better to just make an NTFS instead since it does seem like its better support regardless if I have to backup data/format a drive. | 21:28 |
| zleap | linux_is_my_hero, you can change the number of desktops | 21:28 |
| sebsebseb | linux_is_my_hero: it's two by default | 21:28 |
| onetinsoldier | brad__: is it yet more kde packages? | 21:28 |
| linux_is_my_hero | zleap: how? | 21:28 |
| brad__ | onetinsoldier: so I just nuked the file, and created a blank one, and it had trouble installing libselinux | 21:28 |
| __-osh-__ | pup: Wordpress. Yep. Fairly straightforward. Just use the install instructions. | 21:28 |
| GeekSquid | pup: yes, the installer for wordpress will tell you if you have everything you need installed, if you don't, install what you need and restart apache | 21:28 |
| brad__ | onetinsoldier: No it was just standard libs that time | 21:28 |
| zleap | linux_is_my_hero, right click and choose preferences, or i do that here | 21:28 |
| savid | I'm having this weird issue with my laptop -- when it's on battery power, 80% full, it just shuts off, and I can't power-on. I can only power-on when plugged in. Why might that be happening? | 21:28 |
| jMyles | We are having an ubuntu expo today, and I'm trying to show Gwibber to people. Is it true that Gwibber doesn't let you tag on facebook (like point to the @ubuntu page)? This is a major flaw. | 21:29 |
| mshadle | does anyone here have vmware server 1.x running on lucid? or, worst case, vmware server 2.x running (that doesn't crash?) | 21:29 |
| sebsebseb | linux_is_my_hero: when you do the vm, Virtualbox :) | 21:29 |
| onetinsoldier | brad__: roger. i don't know what's going on there. might be too messy for me to know how to fix | 21:29 |
| zleap | linux_is_my_hero, that means right click on the panel section that shows the switcher thing | 21:29 |
| brad__ | Does anyone else find it extremely annoying that empathy is the default IM client? | 21:29 |
| Loshki | sky1: ext3 is the most stable filesystem for Ubuntu. What ar you trying to do? | 21:29 |
| patdk-wk | I thought vmware server was dead years ago | 21:29 |
| patdk-wk | either use workstation, or esxi | 21:29 |
| brad__ | onetinsoldier: Yea, I think im just going to download the final release and reinstall | 21:29 |
| mshadle | nope it's alive and well | 21:29 |
| brad__ | Pidgin is much better im | 21:29 |
| brad__ | *imo | 21:29 |
| linux_is_my_hero | zleap: thanks! | 21:30 |
| linux_is_my_hero | sebsebseb: definately will | 21:30 |
| mshadle | esxi does not run on a host, workstation requires X. this is headless | 21:30 |
| sky1 | Loshki: I just want the most compatible file system to use on both Windows and Ubuntu, and so far Windows ext support (at least ext4) seems very lacking. I suppose if ext2 or 3 works great on Windows that could be a viable solution as well. | 21:30 |
| zleap | linux_is_my_hero, no probs | 21:30 |
| linux_is_my_hero | email if u have details or recommendations bigtom21485@gmail.com | 21:30 |
| GeekSquid | sky1: sounds good in theory, I only use linux on my personal computers, some of my servers are windows, out of necessity & what the boss wanted, just shutdown windows properly everytime and you should be good | 21:30 |
| linux_is_my_hero | sebsebseb: about the vm i mean | 21:30 |
| patdk-wk | heh, I would defently use esxi on headless | 21:30 |
| sebsebseb | linux_is_my_hero: uhmm | 21:30 |
| patdk-wk | dunno why you would want to burden a hostos with it | 21:30 |
| sebsebseb | linux_is_my_hero: not really the best idea to give out email addresses in here | 21:30 |
| brad__ | esxi is its own OS amirite? | 21:30 |
| patdk-wk | yep | 21:30 |
| onetinsoldier | brad__: roger. sounds like a good idea probably. you can see those postrm and postinst scripts in /var/lib/dpkg/info just to let you know | 21:30 |
| brad__ | onetinsoldier: Ok, thanks for the help! | 21:31 |
| sky1 | GeekSquid: yep that's theonly problem I see is the 'shutdown properly' but one should be doing that anyway :P, and I've used NTFS all the time on Ubuntu and it seems quite flawless as of late. | 21:31 |
| duffydack | Anyone elses rhythmbox cover art not displaying? | 21:31 |
| onetinsoldier | brad__: good luck. cheers :-) | 21:31 |
| duffydack | Playing some tracks, and there aint any covers being displayed. | 21:31 |
| mshadle | this is an existing linux box, esxi isn't an option | 21:32 |
| sky1 | GeekSquid: alright thanks a lot for the affirmation, going to stick with the original plan to switch them to NTFS filesystems I think. Going to take a bit and I'll need to find a place to backup the 1.5TB :P but we'll see haha. | 21:32 |
| patdk-wk | mshadle sure it is :) | 21:32 |
| mshadle | it's not a burden either, it worked fine, except it's had pam 32bit issues as well as kernel upgrades being incompatible. that's about it. | 21:32 |
| patdk-wk | install esxi on usb drive, boot usb drive, use vm-passthough on the harddrive controller | 21:32 |
| patdk-wk | host os will boot like nothing happened it it inside esxi | 21:33 |
| emghazal | Yay! I finally managed to remove the envelope icon from the indicator applet (http://imagebin.org/96127). Apparently it's not exclusive to Evolution. I removed the 'indicator-messages' package and it disappeared. (I just thought other people might want to know how I solved my problem) | 21:33 |
| Pirate_Hunter | is there any where I can find more info on the file common-passwords in lucid? | 21:33 |
| Loshki | sky1: no, you're right, ntfs is probably the way to go if you want to share between systems. There are ext3 drivers for windows but they're underused, and I wouldn't vouch for the stability. The main disadvantage of ntfs is that to do a proper file system check, you need to boot into windows. You can't do it from Ubuntu... | 21:33 |
| realmobile | Anyone have a clue why iPhone isnät stable on Ubuntu 10.04 connecting through bluetooth when it works just fine in 9.10? Anyone having the same issue connecting iPhone to Ubuntu 10.04? | 21:33 |
| jrib | Pirate_Hunter: dpkg -S? | 21:33 |
| sebsebseb | emghazal: yes envelope icon and such is a bit sucky really, how come you wanted to remove though | 21:34 |
| sky1 | Loshki: ah okay, that shouldn't be to much of a problem. I will probably be switchingt alot between the two since I like ubuntu but I also play a lot of PC games which require windows (and I feel much better about that then trying to use wine or something). | 21:34 |
| Pirate_Hunter | jrib, I mean the current structure, it is split into four parts I wish to alter it so that it remembers user passwords and stop them from reusing them, however I am finding it confusing | 21:34 |
| jrib | Pirate_Hunter: I don't anything about it, read the documentation for the package it belongs to? | 21:35 |
| seryl | Does anyone have suggestions on installing ubuntu with nvidia raid controller? (can't seem to select sda/sdb for the install) It only wants to see the mapper, and in the bios raid is disabled. | 21:35 |
| emghazal | sebsebseb: I use gmail for email, I do not use any IM or social networking, I rarely use IRC, and I really have no use for it. Plus, I wanted to free up some space in the panel. | 21:36 |
| sebsebseb | emghazal: well in that case | 21:36 |

| sky1 | emghazal: oh cool I think I might have to do that myself. Thanks :) | 21:36 |
| pup | Sorry. *get mine | 21:36 |
| Pirate_Hunter | jrib, easier said than done will start by backing up the file than will attempt editing it based on previous experience | 21:37 |
| sebsebseb | emghazal: have you removed their edited fast user account switcher on the top right as well? you know for shutting down and it's linked to the me menu as well | 21:37 |
| seryl | pup: mysql -uroot | 21:37 |
| jrib | Pirate_Hunter: I don't see how that's easier than reading documentation, but ok | 21:37 |

| fax | any ideas about getting ubuntu to work on the mac? (Installing seemed to work but it wont boot) | 21:37 |
| jrib | fax: what does "it wont boot" mean? | 21:38 |
| seryl | fax: and why are you installing a linux distro on mac? | 21:38 |
| sebsebseb | emghazal: if so you will get shut down and log out back in the system menu, where they should be really, and are in other Gnome 2 based distro's since that's how upstream does it. Plus you'll have that nice upstream Gnome automatic shut down after a minute if untouched, after telling it to shut down, feature back :) | 21:38 |
| fax | well it just goes black screen | 21:38 |
| jrib | seryl: why not...? | 21:38 |
| fax | seryl I want to use ubuntu 10.4 | 21:38 |

| jrib | fax: do you get to grub? | 21:38 |
| fax | jrib no there is no grub | 21:38 |
| seryl | fax: seems silly imo if you already have a good working terminal and most of the unix utilities. | 21:38 |
| linux_is_my_hero | I have ubuntu 9.10 and i wanna upgrade to 10.4 and it doesnt think theres an upgrade (my upgrade manager). wht? | 21:38 |
| linux_is_my_hero | *why? | 21:38 |
| jrib | seryl: well it's not free software for one | 21:39 |

| jrib | !grub2 > fax | 21:41 |
| ubottu | fax, please see my private message | 21:41 |
| fax | alright ill try that out thanks for the suggestion | 21:41 |
| fax | by the way that says Karmic but does that not matter? | 21:41 |
| fax | I want to use 10.4 | 21:42 |
| jrib | fax: yeah, karmic also used grub2, should be the same instructions | 21:42 |
| fax | okay cool | 21:42 |
| sebsebseb | emghazal: what about theme? personally i'll use human clear looks, with Gnome icons, so the version before 9.10 as well. | 21:42 |
| emghazal | sebsebseb: it doesn't remove the icon. removing 'indicator-messages' package does. | 21:42 |
| sebsebseb | emghazal: yes | 21:42 |
| linux_is_my_hero | that worked, thanks guys havea great afternoon :-) | 21:42 |
| sebsebseb | emghazal: or if you remove for example evolution | 21:42 |

| noir_lord | MichaelKohler, what are you trying to do? | 21:54 |
| sclytrack_atom | the new grub, dunno how it works | 21:54 |
| pun84 | yes Vigo, but what do i need to do with it? | 21:54 |
| muffin2 | sebsebseb : It's ati X1250. and it has no more proprietary support. | 21:54 |
| sebsebseb | linux_is_my_hero: there are two versions of Virtualbox, both free as in price, however one is open source that lacks USB support, because I think legally they aren't alloweed in the open source version | 21:54 |
| noir_lord | Ghoscript will allow you render a PDF file to 1 of about 20 different image formats at an arbitrary resolution | 21:54 |
| sebsebseb | linux_is_my_hero: where as the other is closed source, and has it | 21:54 |
| sebsebseb | linux_is_my_hero: the one you can really easilly install from the Ubuntu repo, is the open source version | 21:54 |
| linux_is_my_hero | sebsebseb: lets go with that one | 21:54 |
| sebsebseb | linux_is_my_hero: the other you can get from them | 21:54 |
| zylogz80 | When I scroll down a menu with more items than can appear on the screen (system > administration for example) the cursor jumps back up automatically so I cannot click on some of the items. Anyone have the same issue? Know of a fix? | 21:55 |
| MichaelKohler | noir_lord: I have scanned a document (it's a pdf now) and now I need to make it smaller so all pages (pdfs I join with pdftk) are the same size | 21:55 |
| muffin2 | sebsebseb : what do you want to say about this? | 21:55 |
| sebsebseb | linux_is_my_hero: sudo apt-get install virtualbox-ose | 21:55 |
| sebsebseb | !info virtualbox-ose | 21:55 |

| sebsebseb | muffin2: basically if you have Plymouth | 21:56 |

| sebsebseb | muffin2: and it does not work well with propritary Nivida and ATI drivers, maybe not all of them, but a lot of them yes | 21:57 |
| muffin2 | sebsebseb : does X125 have a proprietary driver? | 21:57 |
| muffin2 | X1250 | 21:57 |
| sebsebseb | muffin2: probably | 21:57 |
| sebsebseb | muffin2: see if you got something under system > administration > hardware drivers | 21:57 |
| sebsebseb | muffin2: also | 21:57 |

| linux_is_my_hero | sebsebseb: im going through the wizaqrd right now. how much ram does linux need?i have about 3.6gb so how much should i give to windows? | 22:01 |
| SirRedTooth | Lucid Lynx works fine | 22:01 |
| sebsebseb | linux_is_my_hero: try with the default amount to begin with, if that's slow, that's something that can be changed later | 22:01 |
| Buds | Anyone had success fixing the slow boot time in 10.04 without disabling floppy drive?? | 22:01 |
| muffin2 | sebsebseb : It's KMS issue. | 22:01 |
| sebsebseb | linux_is_my_hero: also make sure you do dyanmically expanding hard disk | 22:01 |
| sebsebseb | muffin2: I am still not actsaully that sure what KMS is, to be honest | 22:01 |
| aaron-n-nikki | system monitor not showing any processes running but light stays on. Someone help me??? | 22:02 |

| muffin2 | kernel screen resolution setting | 22:02 |
| muffin2 | resolution and depth | 22:02 |
| muffin2 | I don't know further | 22:02 |
| sebsebseb | muffin2: well you can try with just just a text boot I guess | 22:02 |
| sebsebseb | muffin2: is thsi correct, plymouth won't show properly? | 22:02 |
| Loshki | CQ: the 5th field isn't used except by the dump program. The 6th field is used during booting to decide in which order the filesystems get checked.... | 22:02 |

| Ttech | airtonix, SO am I but on my second montior it only supports 1024x800 (Which is not the default resolution) | 22:08 |
| airtonix | Ttech, i also noticed when booting my netbook off the usbdrive that lucid would let me do dual screen by default at any angle i wanted | 22:08 |
| Loshki | CQ: I'm actually not sure about the order of checking of encrypted systems. If it were an ordinary system, I would use a 1 to have it be checked on pass 1 i.e. just after the root filesystem gets checked... | 22:08 |

| sebsebseb | muffin2: ok to get text boot | 22:09 |
| Ttech | airtonix, Well I'm missing half myu resolutions now that I useed the nvidia drivers | 22:09 |
| sebsebseb | muffin2: remove plymouth-label, plymouth-theme-ubuntu-{logo,text}, and plymouth-x11; then remove "splash" from /etc/default/grub and do sudo update-grub | 22:09 |
| airtonix | Ttech, how do you configure it ? with the nvidia-settings gui ? | 22:09 |
| Polemus1 | i get an error while trying to run k3b... it says it has no permissions to access device | 22:09 |
| noir_lord | Ttech, I had a similar issue with Ubuntu 9.10, check xorg.conf and ensure the HorizRange is valid | 22:09 |
| Ttech | airtonix, Yes. But it doen't offer extra | 22:09 |
| muffin2 | sebsebseb : splash is fine | 22:09 |
| Ttech | noir_lord, But it worked before I used the nvidia drivers | 22:09 |
| bodom | cached: you can change that on settings | 22:09 |
| jason__ | can anyone help me with this? | 22:10 |
| airtonix | Ttech, do you run nvidia-settings as root or just normal user ? | 22:10 |
| edbian | Looking for help with a bcm4318. Any suggestions for what package to install? | 22:10 |
| muffin2 | sebsebseb : I would replace plymouth for usplash | 22:10 |
| Ttech | airtonix, Normal user | 22:10 |
| bodom | cached: btw, having your PC protected by a password is a good thing IMHO | 22:10 |
| sebsebseb | muffin2: you said Plymouth doesn't even boot up or something? | 22:10 |
| jason__ | this comes up when i try and install programs via software center | 22:10 |
| jason__ | The installation could have failed because of an error in the corresponding software package or it was cancelled in an unfriendly way. You have to repair this before you can install or remove any further software. | 22:10 |
| noir_lord | Ttech, it works fine for me in 10.04 but not in 9.10, it took me hours to figure out it was the HorizRange setting in xorg.conf that was out of whack (it didnt show on any forums) | 22:10 |
| airtonix | Ttech, same here | 22:10 |
| CQ | Loshki: /tmp is taking long to mount and blocking the boot process... could be that /dev/random runs out of entropy and blocks... guess I can use urandom instead as a try | 22:10 |
| muffin2 | sebsebseb : usplash is an alternative | 22:10 |
| sebsebseb | muffin2: there's xsplash in the 10.04 repo, but I don't know how to get it using xsplash instead | 22:10 |
| Ttech | noir_lord, So how would I figure out what it should be or need to be? | 22:10 |
| noir_lord | Ttech, in my case I downloaded the manual for the monitor and it was in the system specs | 22:11 |
| muffin2 | sebsebseb : Man, xsplash is not related to plymouth. | 22:11 |
| cached | how do i get ubuntu to ask me to log in when i turn my computer on? | 22:11 |
| sebsebseb | muffin2: indeed | 22:11 |
| linux_is_my_hero | sebsebseb: so does it actually take the 10gb of my hdd and make it ntfs or just think it does? | 22:11 |
| sebsebseb | muffin2: except for how it's something you could use instead | 22:11 |
| pun84 | Can VHCS2 be installed on Lucid Lynx ? | 22:11 |

| New0bo | Firefox is extremely slow when browsing but downloads stuff and normal speed, is there something that could be effecting the way it loads pages? | 22:11 |
| sebsebseb | linux_is_my_hero: how much space did you give that vm? | 22:11 |
| noir_lord | Ttech, if its a flat panel you could just set it to a higher value and see if that fits, unlike a CRT you (in theory) should not be able to damage the monitor with out of mode settings | 22:11 |
| Loshki | CQ: sorry, I don't encrypt filesystems, only selected files. You need more expert help that I can give... | 22:11 |
| muffin2 | sebsebseb : usplash is something I need to use instead. | 22:11 |
| Loshki | CQ: that -> than | 22:12 |
| cached | err, ignore my last question. pidgin was acting weird and i didnt see any messages referred to me | 22:12 |
| Ttech | noir_lord, The larger resolution makes it (odly) work / look worse. | 22:12 |
| sebsebseb | muffin2: so install it or something? | 22:12 |
| sebsebseb | linux_is_my_hero: how much space did you give the vm? | 22:12 |
| cached | bodom: thanks =) | 22:12 |

| CloudMonkee | sebsebseb, no, it's all about software for this problem.... the window manger keeps crashing. the top rectanglebox that controls how to move & manipulate them at the top have dissapeared. | 22:22 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | I agree with maco, not enough testers. | 22:22 |
| alaa_ | acicula: I open /etc/default/grub and I find it empty | 22:22 |
| jose__ | bodom: How would I disable loading? | 22:22 |
| acicula | alaa_, so use menu.lst | 22:22 |
| CloudMonkee | maco, i would love to do that... how do I start | 22:22 |
| acicula | CloudMonkee, start a console and start metacity --replace and when it crashes copy paste the output from that console to pastebin | 22:23 |
| bodom | jose__: what it does: http://php.net/manual/en/book.apc.php | 22:23 |
| sebsebseb | CloudMonkee: the window controls? | 22:23 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | Ok Ill see if google is any help I guess. | 22:23 |
| maco | LinuxGuy2009: too many people refuse to help debug their problem until beta (or even final!) is reached, which means they basically assume we're all psychic | 22:23 |
| tishensnoopy | in which aspect | 22:23 |
| ManDay | Is there a configuration file for GNOME-TERMINAL in which i can set the default startup geometry? | 22:23 |
| CloudMonkee | pastebin? | 22:23 |
| acicula | ManDay, i think you can pass it as a command line option | 22:23 |

| maco | CloudMonkee: well the first alpha for 10.10 is due out the first week of june. you can set up a vm on your system using virtualbox and keep trying things out in there to make sure they work | 22:24 |
| sebsebseb | CloudMonkee: and if you can program, you can actsauly help fix bugs | 22:24 |

| maco | bodom, CloudMonkee: there's also the Ubuntu Reviewers team. the team exists to go through existing patches attached bugs (1800-2000) and review the patch for 1) being able to apply 2) correctness 3) regression potential, then forward them upstream if they're good. if you can read & understand a bit of code, you could be very helpful there | 22:29 |

| acicula | ManDay, then i dont know | 22:29 |
| maco | slek: it's part of kdeedu. as far as i know, gnome does not have an education suite. that's only something kde has focused on | 22:30 |
| acicula | ManDay, can always alias | 22:30 |
| ManDay | acicula, thanks tho | 22:30 |

| dominicdinada | It reminds me of when Microsoft's Explorer Crashes.... | 22:49 |
| acerimmer | dominicdinada: doesn't mean your download stopped. Check /Downloads for an active file | 22:50 |
| darolu | Advent: open the /etc/default/grub file with super user powers and edit the line that says "GRUB_DEFAULT" to what you want, it can be a numeric value or the exact menuentry string in /boot/grub/grub.cfg | 22:50 |

| dominicdinada | Is their any safe way to terminate the transfer since this is not a copy and paste this is me moving files from an external drive | 22:52 |
| darolu | dominicdinada: dumping will copy the data (block by block), not move it (copy+delete) | 22:52 |
| wildbat_laptop | dominicdinada, ctrl -c? | 22:52 |
| dominicdinada | darolu: so i can just kill the process and reboot? | 22:53 |
| darolu | dominicdinada: yes you could but I wouldn't recommend it since it can damage your original information, how big the risk is depends (among other factors) on your filesystem; if the dumping is working you can let it finish | 22:54 |
| dominicdinada | wildbat_laptop: well I used the File Explorer (nautilus ) Is there a recovery option to run ? also my desktop windows lost all their close... etc buttons :/ This is like the 8th time lucid has done this | 22:54 |

| darolu | dominicdinada: nautilus graying can be normal when transfering that many information, let it finish and it should go back to normal, other processes in your computer can be slow as the transfer is using many of your resources | 22:59 |
| darolu | bodom: IMAP will sync your e-mail, you can just kill thunderbird (the process) and then configure what you want to sync and what not | 23:00 |
| dominicdinada | darolu: I understand that but this is 2 hours into the transfer I transfered a 10 gig block earlier... no problems... | 23:00 |

| bodom | darolu: I have a "do not use more than 50Mb for cache" setting, doesn't this does the job? | 23:02 |
| wolter | it shouldn't crash either way... | 23:02 |
| darolu | dominicdinada: if you have a large file (say a 4GB one) and you're trying to paste it to a filesystem that doesn't support files that large can cause the crashing | 23:02 |
| wolter | its a file transfer | 23:02 |
| mikeliss | Is there a clever way to kill a program when you don't know its pid, and it's started by python? | 23:02 |
| red | How can I remove the login keyring crap? | 23:02 |
| camel_ | dos anyone know how to use the mv command and display the status of it ... can't think of what it's called right now | 23:02 |
| wolter | mikeliss, if you launched it a short time ago, pgrep for python and take the biggest pid | 23:02 |

| ClayReiche | Loshki: I'm creating an install image that will be used for 100+ workstations. The "prompt" will be asking for a 4 digit extension that is incorporated into the hostname, a few firefox shortcuts, and I also "ImageMagick" the desktop background to display the extension prominantly | 23:03 |
| dominicdinada | darolu: This is not a size limit because I can just be browsing locally and this happens without warning... As the other guy said it crashes when in the trash also | 23:03 |
| darolu | bodom: no, that doesn't apply for your e-mail sync | 23:03 |
| wolter | mikeliss, then maybe its one of the first ones haha | 23:04 |
| wolter | smallest* | 23:04 |
| bodom | darolu: omg I'm dommed then | 23:04 |
| dominicdinada | Correction It took out all my taskbar programs it cant restore them while I can stop all but the file windows | 23:04 |
| ClayReiche | Loshki: The "prompt" will only occur 1 time. | 23:04 |
| mikeliss | wolter: This sounds unreliable at best.....hrmm... | 23:04 |

| dominicdinada | kill (pid) | 23:05 |
| New0bo | how do I get the pid? | 23:05 |
| wolter | New0bo, or you can pkill <process-name> | 23:05 |
| bodom | darolu: yep, it's a 7Gb inbox over about 100 more MBs remaining on my /home | 23:05 |
| dominicdinada | ps -a | 23:05 |
| ClayReiche | ps -Ae | 23:05 |

| darolu | bodom: cancel the transfer then, you can configure what folders to sync later; to kill thunderbird use a terminal "sudo killall thunderbird" if it fails look for the processID with "ps -u <username>" and use "sudo kill -kill <processID>" | 23:07 |

| Cornwall | Hi, apt-get freezes on installing docbook-xsl-doc-html. Every time I use apt-get it wants to install the package, even if I try and remove/purge it. It has no dependencies whatsoever, it's just "cued" for installation. How do I take it off? | 23:10 |
| mikeliss | wolter: yeah, it looks like that's pretty close to what I need....I'm working it... | 23:11 |

| Cornwall | onetinsoldier: no prob | 23:12 |
| gabspeck | camel_: restarting pulse didn't do the trick :\ | 23:14 |
| mikeliss | wolter: Sigh. Ridiculous, but effective: ps -eo pid,command | grep python | awk -F' ' '{print $1}'; | 23:14 |
| gabspeck | it worked on the fly on 9.10.. pretty lame regression | 23:14 |
| mikeliss | wolter: Except the grep python part is going to grep a specific python instance. | 23:14 |
| George_e | I've got a root terminal open... how can I kill all running instances of gedit? | 23:14 |

| kitche | KristianDK -C switch | 23:15 |
| lucid_lynx | George_e: 'killall gedit', I believe | 23:15 |
| onetinsoldier | Cornwall: try using aptitude. as root, run aptitude and then press / (slash key). that will allow you to search on that package name. when that package is highlighted in aptitude, press the 'Enter' key | 23:16 |

| George_e | This is bad - I can't even kill them by their process id :O | 23:19 |
| lucid_lynx | George_e: when that happens, just go to the System Monitor, right click and select 'Kill Process' - it usually works for me | 23:19 |
| bodom | George_e: use kill -9 | 23:19 |
| onetinsoldier | Cornwall: pressing (shift -) the underscore on a package marks it for purge | 23:19 |

| xyz_ | bzr launchpad-login didnt accept this | 23:21 |
| ClayReiche | bodom: One of the things my perl script does is "ImageMagick" the user input to the background image. So I'm not sure doing it "At login" is ideal. | 23:22 |

| bodom | George_e: short answer: standark kill "ask" the process to terminate, kill -9 "force" the process to terminate. Long answer: type man kill in terminal | 23:22 |

| venger | Vigo, just got back in. I was dealing with the Optiarc / installer issue. I wanted to avoid debootstrap this time around so Instead of replacing the cd-rom to workaround a bug, I remembered that unetbootin was a viable option and its installing now :) | 23:23 |

| CheckMate | what package is needed to play mp3 files in amarok on Ubuntu Lucid? | 23:24 |
| bodom | ClayReiche: the problem (I guess) is that if you run your script on rc.local it will run with root credentials and it's not a good pratice to make it accept input from common users. That's why I guess interactivity is disabled on rc scripts | 23:24 |
| gabspeck | any ideas on getting hdmi audio output to work without rebooting? | 23:24 |

| EpicCyndaquil | I want to install a package from an http address, how do I do that? | 23:35 |
| jpds | lucid_lynx: apt-cache policy <package> | 23:35 |
| dominicdinada | is it a deb package | 23:35 |
| lucid_lynx | jpds: okay, thanks :) | 23:35 |
| jpds | EpicCyndaquil: Download it, then double-click it. | 23:35 |
| EpicCyndaquil | jpds, I can't do that, I'm on Ubuntu Server | 23:35 |
| xyz_ | muhahahhahahaha | 23:35 |
| jpds | EpicCyndaquil: Then: sudo dpkg -i <package_name.deb> | 23:36 |
| erkan^ | SoftwareCentre --> search Ubuntu-One, try it all that install | 23:36 |
| Guest12907 | I can't get connected to my hidden wifi. | 23:36 |
| EpicCyndaquil | and it's not a .deb, it's a tar.gz | 23:36 |
| Kelroy | mikelifeguard: So i tried it several times , but i dont know the reason | 23:36 |
| xyz_ | okey | 23:36 |
| sheeps10 | Hi, I'm getting strange behaviour with the indicator applet on my netbook, it changed in lucid to add a button to not show the message bubble for future notifications, only now every time it shows the same bubble it adds another button. so now I have the bubble scrolling off the screen.... | 23:36 |
| lucid_lynx | also, I had installed wine from the Ubuntu repositories, and then added a PPA repository with a newer version, and it wouldn't upgrade it - any ideas why? | 23:36 |
| jpds | EpicCyndaquil: Then it's not a package. | 23:36 |
| xyz_ | ubuntu one was installed | 23:36 |
| EpicCyndaquil | jpds, then what do I need to do with it? | 23:37 |
| jpds | lucid_lynx: Is this the wine PPA? | 23:37 |
| jpds | EpicCyndaquil: Unpack it and compile the source. | 23:37 |
| geraudk2000 | hello | 23:37 |
| lucid_lynx | jpds: I used ppa:ubuntu-wine/ppa, which I think is the Wine PPA (at least I found it on the WineHQ website) | 23:37 |
| === grapz_ is now known as grapz | ||
| jpds | lucid_lynx: Try installing the wine1.2 package. | 23:38 |
| deeeed | jpds, ok I don't know where I messed up but now it works | 23:38 |
| lucid_lynx | jpds: well, I got it working by uninstalling and then installing wine, but I just wanted to know why it didn't upgrade in the first place | 23:38 |
| jpds | lucid_lynx: That PPA has the wine package under a different name 'wine1.2'. | 23:39 |
| hmw | Can I reload the sound system, or do I have to reboot? | 23:39 |
| erkan^ | ubuntuone-client; python-ubuntuone-storagepro- python-ubutone-client- etc... | 23:39 |
| bdi | how do i open a terminal from commandline? | 23:40 |
| penguin42 | bdi: gnome-terminal | 23:40 |
| lucid_lynx | jpds: well, I installed wine the normal way (sudo apt-get install wine), and it worked just fine | 23:40 |
| jpds | lucid_lynx: Exactly, do: sudo apt-get install wine1.2 | 23:40 |
| penguin42 | bdi: Or more generic x-terminal-emulator should work on kde or gnome or most others | 23:40 |
| hmw | bdi: look in the properties of the terminal icon. | 23:40 |
| Guest12907 | How can I connect to a hidden wifi? | 23:40 |
| jpds | lucid_lynx: Because the package is under a different name, it doesn't try to upgrade it. | 23:40 |
| hmw | Can I reload the sound system, or do I have to reboot? | 23:41 |
| lucid_lynx | jpds: well, I have upgraded it now (as I've said before) | 23:41 |
| lucid_lynx | jpds: but the same way as I installed it in the first place: with the 'wine' package | 23:41 |
| erkan^ | brb sorry | 23:42 |
| sheeps10 | Hi, I'm getting strange behaviour with the indicator applet on my netbook, it changed in lucid to add a button to not show the message bubble for future notifications, only now every time it shows the same bubble it adds another button. so now I have the bubble scrolling off the screen. Does anyone have any suggestions? | 23:43 |
| UbuntuBoy | Hi guys. What does this error mean? could not start device/dev/mapper/asr_pictures-No such file or directory | 23:43 |
| Debjit | hmw: service pulseaudio --full-restart | 23:45 |
| hmw | thank you! | 23:45 |
| hmw | lol now it seems to run 2 times - i have real weird sound now! (it said "...per user sessions" twice) | 23:46 |
| Debjit | hmw: ya first it stops and then it starts | 23:47 |
| Debjit | hmw: so two messages | 23:47 |
| hmw | Debjit: it played the test song in parallel overlay-like with 0.5" delay or so :)) | 23:48 |
| vexati0n | I have an Ubuntu machine that can't get to the Internet.... how can I download a new program to install on that computer, making sure I have all of its dependencies? | 23:49 |
| Debjit | hmw: see if there are two instances of pulseaudio running | 23:49 |
| dominicdinada | How can I restart the gnome desktop manager via shell ? | 23:49 |
| vexati0n | I have an Ubuntu machine that can't get to the Internet.... how can I download a new program to install on that computer, making sure I have all of its dependencies? | 23:50 |
| k04 | vexation download it on the same machine ur using irc on | 23:51 |
| lucid_lynx | is it possible to give users other than root mounting permissions? | 23:51 |
| hmw | vexati0n: ALL OTHERS: perhaps you can install the software on another ubuntu (live cd?) and then get all .deb files from apt's cache - DOES THAT WORK? | 23:51 |
| GotSanity | anyone know of a known bug that is causing laptop users to have excessive heat generation? | 23:52 |
| sheeps10 | lucid_lynx: that's an example from the man page of mount | 23:52 |
| jthing | GotSanity, Yes it's called firefox | 23:52 |
| lucid_lynx | sheeps10: okay, thanks :) | 23:52 |
| Appl6 | GotSanity: My laptop hardly ever uses the fan when it runs Ubuntu. It doesn't seem to produce excess heat though. | 23:52 |
| === ml-something is now known as microlith | ||
| Appl6 | GotSanity: Ubuntu seems to wait till it gets very hot before turning on the fan. | 23:52 |
| dominicdinada | GotSanity: Yes it is called the new desktop is really cpu intensive | 23:53 |
| crankharder | how do I tell apt-get to use a local proxy? | 23:53 |
| rain__ | Can anyone help me? I ins6talled ATI radeondriver on ubuntu 10.04 (I have ati radeon HD 4800) but after i installed driver graphics turned slowen, not faster as I expected | 23:53 |
| rain__ | any idea about that driver problem? | 23:53 |
| hmw | GotSanity: certain software that doesnt let the CPU rest. Might be a driver issue with many things. Mainboard, Compiz, crashed programs, etc. Check what programs are running in terminal with "top". Deacrtivate Compiz. | 23:53 |
| FloodBot2 | !netsplit | 23:54 |
| 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 | 23:54 |

| jthing | My CPy is designed to run at 80 deg C but some go as high as 130 deg | 23:54 |
| GotSanity | Appl6, well the issue I am running into is that ever since I did an upgrade (and a fresh install after) I am running into excessive heat coming from the palm rests on my laptop. the cpu is idle and on power save mode but im still kicking a lot of heat | 23:54 |
| hmw | jthing: 130 is way too hot, do not let it run when it gets that hot, you will damage it | 23:54 |
| acicula | jthing, no recent cpu goes to 130 | 23:54 |
| hmw | acicula: really? thought that appliead to GPUs only | 23:55 |
| === jeff is now known as Guest79272 | ||
| jthing | acicula, you are wrong the zenon 6 core 3.2 GHz does. | 23:55 |
| acicula | hmw, let me rephase, No recent cpu will reach 130 | 23:55 |
| hmw | oops | 23:56 |
| acicula | jthing, its Tjunction is as high as 130? | 23:56 |
| jthing | acicula, just read the specs the other day | 23:56 |
| hmw | jthing: does the box have windows? does it get as hot there? Try to fix cooling, remove and reapply heat paste perhaps | 23:56 |
| GotSanity | no windows. its full buntu | 23:57 |
| Polemus | how can i make a backup of my entire system onto an external drive? | 23:57 |
| Appl6 | vexati0n: On your non-internet machine, try "apt-get --simulate --print-uris install PACKAGE". It should tell you everything it was going to install and where to get it, and then you can download those from another machine. | 23:57 |
| hmw | jthing: clean fan and the thing that collects dust (is it named "cooling body")? | 23:57 |
| GotSanity | however I had it running karmic without issues for the last 6 months | 23:57 |
| dominicdinada | hmw: This is something alot of people have noticed since going to lucid :/ | 23:57 |
| jthing | they also have something called a turbo mode where the CPU can overclock itself it is is running cool enough for short bursts | 23:57 |
| jthing | enough ^, | 23:58 |
| Appl6 | jthing: Turbo mode usually means it slows your computer down. | 23:58 |
| onetinsoldier | Polemus: i've never used it, but you might look at the 'backuppc' package. ther'e probably other ones as well | 23:58 |
| DoorGuy | does anyone know of any open source programs that copy DVD Movies? | 23:58 |
| hmw | dominicdinada: 130°C is a bit too much.... no CPU should _ever_ get that hot, if it is OK, don't you think? Or have modern CPUs become cheap (erm expensive) toys now? | 23:58 |
| Traveler__ | Hi, People | 23:58 |
| acicula | hmw, 130W power dissipation you mean? if you read out the sensors it will probably say tjunction max is 110 or 100? | 23:59 |
| onetinsoldier | !hi | Traveler__ | 23:59 |
| ubottu | Traveler__: 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! | 23:59 |
| Appl6 | hmw: Maybe his temp display is in F? | 23:59 |
| venger | so with the alternate installer CD and selecting basic ubuntu server I still get the -generic kernel and not -server? i need LVM so is it possible to install using the server iso? | 23:59 |

| mrkoolnerd | hi | 23:59 |
| starspot | I have 88 GiB "unallocated" space on my hard drive (former windows). How do I use Gparted to extent my Ubuntu partition into that unallocated space? I'm using the boot cd | 23:59 |
| hmw | Appl6: oh. i will remember that the next time someone askas | 23:59 |
| dominicdinada | hmw: I am saying that I noticed that Lucid is much more CPU intensive and as a result you A, Hear the fan on all the time and B, Feel alot more heat | 23:59 |
