[00:00] My Windows XP doesn't work anymore, after upgrading to ubuntu 10.04 LTS [00:00] i was told to come here [00:00] is there an ubuntu gui menu access item to get at the gnome front end for dpkg-reconfigure packagesd? [00:00] dominicdinada: that might be, but 130°C would be a reason to call the OS a 100% fail *g* [00:00] traveler_, that happened to me as well [00:00] traveler_, i just did clean install [00:00] wow [00:00] geez [00:01] CloudMonkee: Did you find any solution? [00:01] Appl6, ? hardly [00:01] Has anyone found a free, secure way to backup your files online? [00:01] time to hide joins and splits till this is over [00:01] starspot: Use System->Administration->GParted. Then Resize the partition you want to expand so it uses up that unallocated space. [00:01] starspot: Gparted comes on the liveCD, and if the Ubuntu partition is adjacent to the free space you should be ablt to just drag the edge of the partition. === homer is now known as Guest68078 [00:01] aiother, FREE?!? you mean without paying for disk space? you could use gdrive but i wouldnt recommend it [00:01] dominicdinada, I dont beleve it is because of cpu usage though. the top usage I have running right now is terminal and I am running an absolute bare minimial install. gnome-core only [00:01] I just upgraded from Karmic to 10.04, and to my surprise, it seems to boot much slower. Has anyone seen this? Is there a way to troubleshoot the bootup to see why it takes so long? [00:02] I was expecting the opposite. [00:02] does anyone know of any DVD ripper programs that are truly awesome? so that I may copy DVD's and are open source? [00:02] TomV-415: try a fresh clean install maybe [00:02] GotSanity: It maybe.... [00:03] Doorguy: what about brasero disc burner? [00:03] respire, how much space you get with gdrive. I know ADrive gives you 50 GB and SkyDrive gives you 25 GB, free. [00:03] Appl6, Jordan_U I tried both ways - I'm in gparted now. My dev/sda has only an extended partition, which contains the ext4 that I want larger. I try to resize the extended partition but gparted doesn't offer that option === piju is now known as piju[QRT] [00:03] 400mb left :) === piju[QRT] is now known as piju [00:03] onetinsoldier: that might be a thing to do... the upgrade was a pretty long process, but it did go pretty well. [00:04] starspot: It won't let you resize the expanded partition if any of logical partitions inside of it are mounted. You have to unmount them first (right click and choose unmount). [00:04] respire, hard part is finding an easier, secure way to use it. [00:04] DoorGuy, try acidrip [00:04] Appl6, ah-HA!.... [00:04] TomV-415: mine seems to boot pretty darn fast to me. compiz settings all cranked up. using proprietary ati video drivers here [00:04] I'm just curious if I could see what is going on during the boot process, because I think it is trying something, then failing, and falling back.. which might be why it takes so long too boot in 10.4 [00:04] I know I have done this before but don't remember how, I installed kubuntu-desktop and it changed my boot splash screen, I want my old ubuntu boot splash back, how do I do that? [00:04] does it copy even "Copyrighted" stuff? [00:05] brasero or Acidrip? [00:05] have anyone here tried Ubuntu on a MacBook Pro? [00:05] DoorGuy: I've used K9copy. it seems to work well for me [00:05] onetinsoldier: I've got an old Dell Latitude D800, but it just seemed to boot faster under karmic...now, there is a delay before login, and one after login too.. [00:06] !anyone > lucid_lynx [00:06] lucid_lynx, please see my private message [00:06] can I find Acidrip or K9copy in the Software Center? [00:06] TomV-415: You can try fiddling with Startup->Preferences->Startup Applications. [00:06] TomV-415: roger. it could possible be due to how old the system is... [00:06] Appl6, it seems to be the linux-swap that's active but it doesn't offer option to "unmount" - only "swapoff" Is swapoff the same thing? [00:06] !info acidrip [00:06] doorguy: Yes. Both [00:07] has anyone had any problems with Ubuntu running on a MacBook? [00:07] Installing the them both now! Thanks Guys! [00:07] starspot: It's not "the same thing", but it tells your computer to stop using that partition. So in this case it does what you want it to do. [00:07] i just set up ubuntu.. i have internal hardrive partition where I have my docs/pics/video etc how can i point ubuntu to those files wihtout moving into /home/usr/ [00:07] does ubuntu auto resolve LAN at 100MB? Im attatching a gigabit router to a 100/1000 card and it wont connect at 1000MB === txwikinger2 is now known as txwikinger [00:07] lucid_lynx: I've 8.04 on macbook pro with no problem [00:08] DoorGuy: acidrip is in lucid [00:08] k-train: do you usually copy the image or copy the disc? [00:08] Appl6, heheh right. oops ha ha. yeah it's working now with swap turned off. Now I'm dragging the black arrow of the extended partition all the way to the 0 mark [00:08] h00ked__: okay, thanks :) I'm considering buying one, but I'd prefer to have Ubuntu on it [00:08] hello, does anyone know how to change screen resolution using console? [00:09] Appl6, how will grub handle this now? [00:09] doh. think i need to change servers [00:09] i have internal hardrive partition where I have my docs/pics/video etc how can i point ubuntu to those files wihtout moving into /home/usr/ [00:09] Appl6: System=> Administration => Startup Manager looks promising, thanks! [00:09] DoorGuy: Input I set to DVD and output i set to iso image. [00:09] rafael: what graphics card are you using? [00:09] lucid_lynx: I don't know when, but i red, as with 9.04 and 9.10 was many problems - wifi, bluetooth, multitouch.. but 8.04 is perfect ;-) [00:10] Awesome! [00:10] starspot: Grub needs a primary partition to boot from. If you have one (besides the extended partition), then you should be fine. [00:10] TomV-415: You're welcome. [00:10] DoorGuy, nvidis 9600 [00:10] nvidia* [00:10] Nvidia or AMD/ATI [00:11] Appl6: off to reboot. Cheers. [00:11] krazykrivda:you can mount the partition anywhere you wish, assuming you have permissions to do so. [00:11] k-train: how do i go about doing that? [00:11] lucid_lynx: u wont to buy a new macbook? [00:11] Appl6, ouch - I don't [00:11] Hi guys. What does this error mean? could not start device/dev/mapper/asr_pictures-No such file or directory [00:12] starspot: You have Ubuntu installed on a logical partition? [00:12] h00ked__: yeah, or rather a MacBook Pro [00:12] starspot: How have you been booting into it so far? [00:12] k-train: also is mount preferred over symlink? [00:12] Hello, I have several accounts (users A,B,C) on my lucid box, but I can't change from user A to any of users B and C. However I can switch between users B and C as I like [00:12] lucid_lynx: yea, its good choice ;-) [00:12] krazykrivda: i always mount my partions. [00:12] click on "System", "Admin", and "monitors" [00:12] krazykrivda: you can bind the Pictures etc folders to your partition, or edit ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs [00:12] I would like to be able to switch between all my users [00:12] lucid_lynx: new macbook pro have awesome battery :-) [00:12] does that help? [00:13] my caching dns server isn't holding the cache very long [00:13] how can I change that? [00:13] h00ked__: nice :) [00:13] Appl6, this was a dual-boot windows/ubuntu and before ubuntu it also had an HP_Recovery partition. When I installed ubuntu the installer created an extended partition and put the ext3 and linux-swap in there [00:13] krazykrivda: I mean, use mount bind to make ~/Pictures etc point to the folders you use on your partition [00:13] sorry [00:13] its Preferences [00:13] Appl6, so where would grub reside in that scenario? [00:13] VCoolio: that sounds exactly what I"m looking to but dont' know how (been on ubuntu for about 30 min) :-\ [00:13] DoorGuy, I can't star gnome because i've got a blank screen. [00:14] Appl6, I just deleted the only 2 primary partitions with gparted (one NTFS and one FAT) [00:14] you just installed your distro? [00:14] DoorGuy, yes 10.04 [00:14] starspot: Let me confirm this: you have Ubuntu installed on a logical partition, and you could boot from it using the Grub prompt at boot? [00:14] is this the first time you have logged on? [00:15] DoorGuy, yes [00:15] krazykrivda: can currently access the files on the other partition? (Just making sure your partition is mounted) [00:16] krazykrivda: chech this at the bottom https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mount I think you can edit fstab so this is done automatically when you boot [00:16] Appl6, on an extended partition (is that a logical partition, or are those inside the extended partition?), but yes, I've been booting with grub [00:16] k-train: yes.. F: drive [00:16] the very last thing that you did before clicking on "Install" from the Setup Menu... [00:16] did you click on Advanced? [00:17] VCoolio: thanks for introducing that way of doing what krazykrivda want's to do. i have never done it that way. [00:17] DoorGuy, no [00:17] VCoolio: will this also save to the partition if i save to My Documents in ubunt [00:17] gimme a sec and let me find a link [00:17] rafaelsoaresbr: blank screen as in black screen or white screen? [00:18] starspot: Logical partitions are all the partitions inside an extended partition. And for some reason I was under the (apparently incorrect) assumption that Grub needed to boot a primary partition. But if you can boot from it then there's nothing wrong, so go ahead and resize. [00:18] darolu, no video at all. [00:18] rafaelsoaresbr: nvidia card? [00:18] krazykrivda: yes, it's like symlinking the folders; make sure ~/Pictures and the others folders in home you bind to are empty [00:18] Appl6: its just windows that requires a primary partition [00:18] rafaelsoaresbr: does Ctrl + Alt + F1 bring up a command line interface? [00:18] darolu, nvidia 9600 [00:19] VCoolio: i dont' follow what you mean.. let me read link [00:19] maco: How long has that been the case? That linux /boot doesn't need a primary partition. [00:19] lucid_lynx, i'm going to try [00:19] Appl6, coolio. I'll restart and see. I can always come back with the boot cd - thanks! [00:20] Appl6: linux doesnt even care if the partition is set to bootable. *just* windows cares. windows has to be on a primary partition, and that partition has to be bootable, or windows wont boot. linux can do anything though ;-) [00:20] rafaelsoaresbr: reboot and boot from the recovery mode; once you're there choose the fix graphics (or similar) option so it generates a new xorg file, install the propietary driver and reboot again, see if it fixes it; make sure you configure the right resolution for your monitor before doing it [00:20] starspot: Sure, good luck! [00:20] is it possible for you to reinstall 10.04? [00:20] it doesn't literally generas a xorg file but it reconfigures your xorg options... [00:20] should i worry about "BUG: soft lockup - CPU#3 stuck for 61s!" ? [00:22] krazykrivda: you have a folder Pictures on a partition, you want to use that automatically for all your pics, so you bind that folder to ~/Pictures, but ~/Pictures needs to be empty to do so; sudo mount --bind /folder/on/partition /home/user/Pictures; to do it automatically on boot, edit /etc/fstab and put in a line like /folder/on/partition /home/user/Pictures none bind 0 0 === devil is now known as leaw [00:22] tn90: not so much but it can grow, it's very likely a bug in your kernel, if this happens when using the newest kernel try uninstalling and reinstalling it [00:22] Appl6, thanks! I'll know if it works in around 30 minutes - right now gparted is humming away at resizing [00:22] What's the most efficient virtualization that's supported on Ubuntu without hardware virtualization support? === bdi is now known as DiverDude [00:23] tsrk, virtualbox [00:23] hey.. using the console, how do i access a directory with a space in it? [00:23] acicula: does it have a server version? [00:23] justin22885, \ [00:23] I had a storage disk and is coming up under disk manager as "has a few bad sectors" should I remove that disk? [00:23] justin22885: use the tab button or put a \ before the space [00:23] justin22885: add ' before and after the path, like '/home/user/my directory' [00:23] justin22885: cd directory\ with\ space [00:23] tsrk, yes, the nonfree Virtualbox supports remote viewing via vnc [00:24] acicula: ok, sounds good, thanks [00:24] Hi guys. What does this error mean? could not start device/dev/mapper/asr_pictures-No such file or directory [00:24] aah.. before the space [00:24] tsrk, its not comparible to vmware esx if thats what you mean by server version [00:24] U-b-u-n-t-u: you may need to replace it, alone won't hurt but info stored in it won't be reliable as it can get damaged [00:24] justin22885, yup [00:24] acicula: no, for use on a server running ubuntu. Like KVM, but this machine doesn't have hardware support [00:25] tsrk, ah like so, then yeah virtualbox is the easiest\ [00:25] darolu, I see so those bad sectors might be used [00:25] howdy... [00:25] I just did an upgrade to 10.04 and I messed up my grub [00:25] VCoolio: I have F:\Documents, so i can.. sudo mount --bind /files/Documents /home/me/Documents [00:25] upon restart it prompts me with grub rescue> [00:25] acicula: yeah, it sounds like the right solution... I just didn't think of it because I've only used it as a desktop solution befure [00:25] before* [00:26] I was hoping to get some guidance from you guys on how to fix it :-) [00:26] tsrk, you can start it in headless mode or remotely(sortof) over ssh -X [00:26] U-b-u-n-t-u: it's a possibility, by general rule anytime you notice errors on a hard drive, back it up; it's probable the hd is not phisically damaged and reformatting it will do the trick though [00:26] my auto completion for apt-get on lucid server is busted. any hints where to look/ [00:26] ? [00:26] Cyber-Dogg: Do you have more than one hard drive? [00:26] Isn't there any official repository for skype? I'm not a fan of installing stuff from local. [00:26] v0lksman: stop using root account [00:26] krazykrivda: yes, if /files/Documents is the folder like you use in the file manager or point to when saving (linux doesn't do F: ) [00:26] :p [00:27] darolu, nope...user account sudo [00:27] oh also, it says "error: the symbol 'grub_puts_' not found [00:27] bash-completion is installed [00:27] could someone please help me with installing sfml? [00:28] darolu, thanks [00:28] v0lksman: is it apt-get exclusive of everything fails? [00:28] apt-get exclusive [00:28] for windows, what's a free batch wav>mp3 converter? [00:28] aiother: if u do client-side encyrption your data all secure [00:28] wouldnt worry [00:28] v0lksman: try "sudo apt-get update" it's probably that the list of packages is not ready [00:28] L65Druid, ffmpeg will do it (free) [00:29] thanks! [00:29] L65Druid: lame [00:29] !info lame [00:29] lame (source: lame): An MP3 encoding library (frontend). In component multiverse, is optional. Version 3.98.2+debian-0ubuntu3 (lucid), package size 161 kB, installed size 264 kB [00:29] darolu, nope...still no go [00:30] Cyber-Dogg: Do you have more than one hard drive? [00:30] is it possible to have Ubuntu boot into a command line interface only? [00:30] respire: like the encrypted home directory option? [00:30] VCoolio: how do i find the actual mount reference.. i know windows it is F:\ (Files) but when i look at it.. [00:31] lucid_lynx, yep...server install [00:31] I'm duel booting ... I want to make my ubuntu partition larger and my windows partition smaller. What is the best way to do that? [00:31] v0lksman: I mean in the desktop edition [00:31] NeaLMaN: GParted on the LiveCD [00:31] Greetings... I have an ATI Radeon X1350, and I know it's supported in the open source "Radeon" drivers, but every time I try and activate desktop effects (Compiz), my system slows down to an unGodly slow state. [00:31] remove gdm from startup [00:31] krazykrivda: I thought you had it mounted already? how do you browse the partition in the file manager? [00:31] VCoolio: location: computer:/// and volume: FILES [00:31] aiother, i don't know anything about the services you are asking but someone i am sitting with says if you pay them to set it up for you they will set it up so it's encrypted and only you can access it [00:31] what is the LIveCD? === zk_ is now known as zkx [00:32] krazykrivda: ah it's another pc? [00:32] v0lksman: cat your .bashrc file, paste bin it [00:32] they don't know about the services either but they're quick studies. [00:32] NeaLMaN: the Ubuntu CD (when you boot Ubuntu from it instead of installing) [00:32] no, seperate partiotion on my hardrive [00:32] xTheGoat121x, i'd guess the 3d support for that card is kind of lacking [00:32] ok...is there somewhere I can read about it lucid? [00:32] VCoolio: when i click places, i see Computer, System, FILES [00:32] etc [00:32] aiother, theres plenty of on the fly crypto options including the encryptfs one i dont know how it would work with your skydrive though [00:33] probably fine [00:33] acicula, well according to most of the sites I've been on, it should have pretty good support. And it worked fine under 9.10 [00:33] xTheGoat121x, googling the driver and your card version yield any suggestions to try? [00:33] i think it just stores cyphered files in a .private dir [00:33] xTheGoat121x, well there is a difference between working, and fast 3d support [00:33] darolu, http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/hj84kR0U [00:33] so only put them on the skydrive [00:33] what was the command to make gnome-panel recover it's default setting¿ [00:33] then use a simple fuse or something to mount it [00:33] aliciapg: There are several libsfml packages in the repos. What's the problem? [00:33] xTheGoat121x, but yeah you'd expect the 3d effects to work just fine [00:33] Hello. What package should I install in order to be able to read the manuals of C functions like strcmp ... for example to do "man strcmp" and get a manual for strcmp ? Thank you in advance! [00:33] evud, manpages-dev [00:33] krazykrivda: ok, type 'mount' in terminal and check what partitions you get, it's one of them if it's mounted, else do 'sudo fdisk -l' [00:34] Appl6: i'm not sure which ones i need so i was attempting to install from the archive on the site [00:34] Cyber-Dogg: Do you have more than one hard drive? [00:34] yes [00:34] acicula, I've been on google now for a while. Can't find any significant information -- most people say it works. And yeah, it seems like a regression to me that it doesn't work now but it did on the last install [00:34] Jordan_U: I have 2 [00:34] Okay so I was in ubuntu, and I restarted, and now in either windows or ubuntu my LAN says its not connected (it is)... I'm REALLY hoping someone knows what happened. THanks [00:34] darolu, lucid_lynx, can I fix my problem before installing the system? is there any option that can fix my problem? [00:34] what was the command to make gnome-panel recover it's default setting¿ [00:34] the error is "symbol grub_puts not found" [00:34] xTheGoat121x, check launchpad for similar issues or report it as a new issue(regression) [00:34] acicula: Thank you very much :) [00:34] !panels | xangua [00:34] !resetpanels | xangua [00:34] xangua: To reset the gnome panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » [00:35] thanks bastid_raZor maco [00:35] aliciapg: If you want all of them, you can do "sudo apt-get install 'libsfml*' " [00:35] v0lksman: see the final lines, I deleted something that may fix it: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/jupeqs6y [00:35] rafaelsoaresbr: did Ctrl + Alt + F1 work? [00:36] lucid_lynx, no [00:36] Appl6: but i don't think i want all of them... just the ones i need for me to work with c++ [00:36] rafaelsoaresbr: oh so you are using the LiveCD? [00:36] lucid_lynx, it does not show me login: [00:36] acicula, what really makes me laugh is how much I'm finding from 2007 -- I guess that was a bad year for ATI [00:37] darolu, yes, after some issues. [00:37] darolu, thanks...seems to work! [00:37] aliciapg: The libsfml packages are only the C++ ones. But I don't understand: you don't know which ones you want, so you're downloading the entire archive from the site, but you don't actually want all of them? [00:37] v0lksman: no problem, I'm glad it worked [00:37] VCoolio: it looks like /media/FILES/ and when i run that as the comand.. it givers no error.. but no effect? [00:37] I restarted Ubuntu 10.04, and now in either windows or ubuntu (dual boot) my LAN says its not connected (it is). The LAN port lights up on the back of the PC, but the router does not say it's connected [00:38] Cyber-Dogg: Grub has probably been installed to the hard drive that's currently *second* in the boot order, and what's left on the one that you are currently booting is an old version. [00:38] aliciapg: Though really those libraries are quite small in terms of disk space, I doubt you'll notice they're even there unless you're very, very short on disk space. [00:38] rafaelsoaresbr: then you may want to try to install Ubuntu using the alternative CD instead: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/downloadmirrors#alternate [00:38] Cyber-Dogg: So if you change hte boot order you'll probably boot fine, you can also change what drive Ubuntu installs grub to on upgrades. [00:39] Appl6: on the site it said for c++ download a certain one and i'm assuming the repos has it all? am i wrong? [00:39] guys is there a "safe mode" of open office i can run the spreadsheet in [00:39] rafaelsoaresbr: it's weird to see this happening on a LiveCD session, you shouldn't need to log in, it jumps directly to the desktop logged in as LiveUser (or ubuntu), you can install from there; I know your card is fully supported so installing should work; you can try the alternateCD to install if you can't see anything at all with the regular LiveCD [00:39] the damn thing crashes when i click help menu [00:39] i asked the OO guys they just told me install debian [00:39] i need that spreadsheet and i really LIKE ubuntu, i don't want fedora or debian [00:39] easy fix then :p-) [00:40] is there anyone else having troubles with downloadthemall? [00:40] lucid_lynx, darolu, okay, thanks [00:40] I restarted Ubuntu 10.04, and now in either windows or ubuntu (dual boot) my LAN cable says its not connected (it is). The LAN port lights up on the back of the PC, but the router port does not light up. [00:40] I keep getting _name.rar when I try to download something [00:40] VCoolio: when i unmounted it.. everything synced up? although it didnt' actually unmount [00:40] and it works... thanks! I thought that the boot order was the other way around so I picked the wrong one in the upgrade [00:40] krazykrivda: browse to /media etc in a file browser and see where it is [00:40] aliciapg: The C++ libraries are in the libsfml* packages. The C libraries have a different name; they're the libcsfml* packages. So yeah, I'm pretty sure the libsfml* will just give you C++ libraries. [00:41] respire: it crashes when using the help menu only? [00:41] now it's having problems mounting the other drive [00:41] what is the 'bind' mounting option for? [00:41] darole: it did the last time i clicked help [00:41] sky, Hello. Does your network card show up in the output of "sudo lspci" ?? [00:41] Appl6: so just download the extra stuff too...? [00:41] other problems with it is EVERY time it asks if i wanted to recover the document, even if the document saved fine [00:41] lucid_lynx: you can sort of symlink folders to any folder on a mounted device [00:41] sky, You can use grep to speed looking through all that output. [00:41] aliciapg: What extra stuff? [00:41] it crashes when i cut and move data about [00:41] VCoolio: okay, thanks :) [00:41] aliciapg: It doesn't count as extra if you don't know what you want =P. [00:42] hi what is the program to join file with extension 001 002 and so on? any one can help please? [00:42] Appl6: but i thought the c stuff was in with libcsfml [00:42] hi all [00:42] respire: you may want try reinstalling it via Synaptic (System-Admin-Synaptic), seems like the whole app is corrupted [00:42] duongthaiha: try jdownloader [00:42] Cyber-Dogg: You're welcome, you can also safely choose both :) "sudo dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc" to change. It will ask other questions, just leave them as the default (some of them will be blank, that's normal) [00:43] edbian: Yes it does show up in lspci. [00:43] aliciapg: Right. I suggested only getting libsfml*, not libcsfml*. I just mentioned that to let you know that things are split up in the repos, i.e. you're not going to get the C libraries if you install only libsfml*. [00:43] sky, Does it have a module. Check using "lspci -k" [00:43] is it possible to merge files in Ubuntu? [00:43] duongthaiha: cat foo* > foo.complete [00:43] Appl6: ah i'm confused. install both then or not both? [00:44] Stormcr0w: thanks but i dont mean the downloader but somethign to join all file together? can JDownloader do it [00:44] lucid_lynx: --bind = Remount a subtree somewhere else (so that its contents are available in both places) [00:44] aliciapg: Install _only_ libsfml*. You can look at the output of "aptitude search sfml" to see if the package descriptions make this clearer. [00:44] Jordan_U: thanks I normally have to use HJSplit in windows but cat will do the same thing here?? [00:45] duongthaiha: It can. It usually does it automatically, if you add the download links to it. If you have already downloaded the stuff, then Jordan_U's command will work [00:45] whats the option to dpkg -l so it only shows packagae names [00:45] darolu, this is a related question [00:45] edbian: Yes it has a module, says "kernel module r8169" [00:45] respire, there's several third party programs that will put a folder on your computer that you can just drag and drop files onto your skydrive account. Then you could use a backup program to do automatic backups. [00:45] respire: dpkg -l | grep ^ii [00:46] Stormcr0w: Jordan_U: thanks a lot i will give it a try now [00:46] are there anyone, who using antispam on pidgin? When yes, which is the best? :-) [00:46] lucid_lynx: yes you can merge files using "cat file1 file2 > newfile" [00:46] respire: what's a related question? [00:46] darolu: well, no, because it inserts a newline between the two files, right? [00:46] h00ked__: anti spam¿¿ live 'privacy please' plugin¿ [00:46] respire, except their all for windows that I've seen so far. So I'm trying to figure out how to do it on ubuntu. [00:46] How do I select php 5.2 instead of 5.3 [00:47] Appl6: alright i guess i'll try that. thank you ^^ [00:47] aliciapg: Sure, no problem. [00:47] sky, Then I think there is a hardware issue. Especially since the problem persists on windows and linux. Can you try a different port on the router? I didn't ethernet cable? A different computer with a working ethernet port? [00:48] Appl6: the only problem is i'm on a slow internet connection and this may take...a while [00:48] and mounting is fixed! :-) [00:48] thanks for the help guys [00:48] lucid_lynx: not that I'm aware of, but it may add a new line [00:48] edbian: Yes I tried a different port on the router, and this computer Im on now is working on same router. If it's a hardware issue, I'm not sure how to fix it... it was working fine in Ubuntu until I restarted the computer. [00:49] aliciapg: Did you look at "aptitude search sfml"? It mentions the different categories of libraries. So, for example, if you only wanted audio stuff then you would just install libsfml-audio. [00:49] edbian: Also the light on the back of the ethernet port on the computer does blink/light-up [00:49] Have most of the bugs in Lucid been fixed? I was told it would be best to wait 2 weeks before installing Lucid because most of the bugs would be fixed by then. But I would like to install Lucid tomorrow if most of the major bugs have been fixed. What do you guys think? [00:49] is there a dpkg command to make it not list packages which are only collections of other packages [00:49] darolu: well, I remember Windows allowing you to merge two files using 'copy /b file1 + file2 file3', I believe - I want to accomplish the same effect in Ubuntu [00:49] sky, There are two lights typically on an ethernet port. The link light that says the connection is live and the activity light that says there are packets being sent. Are both of those lights working? [00:50] I am trying to configure either VLC (http interface with wget) or mpd with mpc so I can bind a key at the top of my laptop to pause / next track / play, etc globally. I have been trying for a couple days now and getting really frustrated. Need a more experienced users assistance please. [00:50] VCoolio: i can't unbind now.. or bind anythign else and I am unable to unmount my FILES since it says it is not mounted [00:50] UbuntuBoy: might depend on what you want to do with it, but i haven't had any issues really [00:50] UbuntuBoy: In my opinion, Lucid started off pretty stable, especially compared to some of the more recent releases. However, Ubuntu is notoriously slow to pick up bugs from Debian, and to update their repos with bug fixes, so I don't think you've waited long enough to get the good bug fixes. [00:50] edbian: It is just the link light I believe (orange one), not the green one. [00:50] Appl6: well i just want to be able to write a program that can manipulate graphics so i have no idea what i need >-< [00:50] lucid_lynx: I usually use "cat" to join files I cut in smaller pieces with "split" and the files always work, so I don't think it ads a new line; you may try and see if it works for you too [00:51] krazykrivda: does /media/Files show up if you do 'mount' in a terminal? [00:51] edbian: It lights up when the ethernet is connect to the router (although router doesn't recognize it), and does not light up when the ethernet is only in the computer. [00:51] darolu: I did, and it added a newline to it :/ [00:51] aliciapg: Does it have to be for C++? [00:51] VCoolio: /media/FILES/Documents on /home/charlie/Documents type none (rw,bind) [00:52] hi, both my ubuntu laptop and my sister's macbook are unable to burn a few (13) mp3 songs to a cd for my mum for mother's day. they seem to burn, then at the end i'm given an error. i'm starting to think it's due to one of the files maybe being corrupt? does that make sense? [00:52] sky, So the port on the router and the cable you're attempting to use on the target computer work fine on a different computer. Is that right?? [00:52] I am trying to configure either VLC (http interface with wget) or mpd with mpc so I can bind a key at the top of my laptop to pause / next track / play, etc globally. I have been trying for a couple days now and getting really frustrated. Need a more experienced users assistance please. [00:52] lucid_lynx: I just tried it with text files and it worked just fine ?? [00:52] Appl6: preferably considering that's what i know [00:52] Hi , how can I change the resolution of wich my termnial is running? ( when im running in cli with no x server) [00:52] Because currently its at a weird resolution and I can read anything on the screen and its all screwed up. [00:53] It happend with x at first but I managed to change the resolution and that fixed it. [00:53] Appl6: How would the current Lucid be compared to Jaunty? I use Jaunty still and would like to get Lucid as soon as it's good. When can I expect Lucid to free free of major bugs? [00:53] edbian: Yes, I've also tried 3 differnet ethernet cables, in different ports on the router. I was using a switch between the router and computer, but took that out. The cable that was going from the router to the switch was showing up as connected on both the router and switch, but when I use that same cable to go from the router to the computer; it does not light up. [00:53] darolu: this is exactly what I did: echo foo > a; echo bar > b; cat a b > c; cat c [00:53] chilli0: grub2 options should help; /etc/default/grub the line that says "GRUB_GFXMODE=" [00:53] darolu: then it inserts a newline between the two files [00:53] aliciapg: Do you want to manipulate graphics in real time? Or do you want to create images like .bmp or .jpg? [00:54] Can someone tell me how to choose a version with apt-get [00:54] krazykrivda: if that's the only one the drive wasn't mounted yet; try to figure out which one it is in /dev/sd?? when you do 'sudo fdisk -l' and mount it (although I don't see why it would work over computer:///, unless it's in ~/.gvfs) [00:54] Appl6: real time [00:54] UbuntuBoy: I'd say Lucid is a noticeable step up from both Jaunty and Karmic. [00:54] darolu, ok thanks. [00:54] Appl6: i want to make a game [00:54] lucid_lynx: I see, no idea how to avoid the break of line [00:54] sky, I suspect that the ethernet port on the target machine is broken :( I but if you have/had a pci ethernet card or something it would work. Typically linux has excellent wired ethernet support because it is so ubiquitous [00:55] darolu, And how do I edit these options? [00:55] VCoolio: it WAS mounted.. after bind it appears unmounted.. it was mounted "/media/FILES" but after binding i got /media/FILES/Documents on /home/charlie/Documents type none (rw,bind) [00:55] Jon--: did you get mpd running, or did you edit /etc/mpd.conf? [00:55] aliciapg: Sorry, I'm not really familiar with graphics programming, but you may want to look at this link: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/671395/a-simple-2d-cross-platform-graphics-library-for-c-or-c [00:55] aliciapg: People proposed various suggestions to someone who asked the same question. [00:55] chilli0: use your favourite text editor; i.e. "gksu gedit /etc/default/grub" and remember that after you modify the file you must run "sudo update-grub" to apply changes [00:55] krazykrivda: I don't get that; logout and back in, then try the ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs file method [00:55] VCoolio: it is also /dev/sda5.. so i try mount /dev/sda5 and it does not work [00:55] darolu: well, I found a program called 'merge' in the repositories (package rcs), I'll try to use that instead [00:55] edbian: Alright I'll try a PCI card... I don't understand how it would have broke though lol... sucks to cause the computer is only 2 days old T_T [00:56] Appl6: ah thank you, but i kind of would like 3d [00:56] edbian: guess that means I can exchange the mobo if I need to but thats such a pain [00:56] sky, Sometimes they wear out. [00:56] chilli0: use your native screen resolution, for instanse: GRUB_GFXMODE=800x600 [00:56] krazykrivda: what does mounting sda5 say? [00:56] Appl6: thank you for your help though :D [00:56] sky, I'm not 100% sure. That's my best guess though. [00:56] instance* [00:56] VCoolio: mount: can't find /dev/sda5 in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab [00:57] I tried to format a disk and I get this error msg Error creating file system: helper exited with exit code 1: Error calling fsync(2) on /dev/sda1: Input/output error [00:57] Appl6: so would you say that Lucid is just as stable and bug free as Jaunty? [00:57] edbian: ah thanks though. It seems as if ubuntu did something while talking to the port and now its like 'stuck' for lack of a better term... [00:57] darolu, Yes , but how can i get to that part to change the,? [00:57] krazykrivda: you need to create and specify a mount point [00:57] any idea why? [00:57] sky, "sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart" might help [00:57] krazykrivda: so put it in fstab, /dev/sda5 /media/FILES filesystemtype user,rw 0 0 [00:58] chilli0: what do you mean by "get to that part to change"? [00:58] krazykrivda: replacing filesystemtype with e.g. ntfs or ext4, user = user, not username [00:58] * h00ked__ is away: sleeping [00:58] darolu, How do i get to the grub2 settings [00:59] oh sorry , didnt see the message at 9:55 [00:59] edbian: nope that didn't do anything :/ [00:59] chilli0: open the /etc/default/grub file with super user powers; i.e. "sudo nano /etc/default/grub" remember to change the value to your screen's native resolution and to run "sudo update-grub" after you make the change [00:59] sky, does eth0 have an ip address? "ip addr" [01:00] I just installed 10.04 server on a system and now it won't boot. I only get to the grub rescue screen any thoughts? [01:00] krazykrivda: sorry, bedtime over here; good luck and have fun [01:00] edbian: nope, 0.0.0.0 says media disconnected [01:00] how do i put something in fstab? [01:00] sky, what does /etc/network/interfaces look like? [01:00] sky, Is there an entry for anything besides lo ??? [01:01] krazykrivda, Using a text editor as root. "gksu gedit /etc/fstab" === ubuntu is now known as EntityReborn2 [01:02] How stable and bugless would Lucid be compared to jaunty? [01:02] UbuntuBoy, Get a live cd and see for yourself. It's different on different hardware. [01:03] edbian: normally you don't find the bugs until the OS has been install a while. [01:03] UbuntuBoy, Good point [01:03] I tried to format a disk and I get this error msg Error creating file system: helper exited with exit code 1: Error calling fsync(2) on /dev/sda1: Input/output error.... I cant delete the partition I can't format nothing at all [01:03] UbuntuBoy, It is a little buggy for me. Nothing major though. [01:03] edbian: /etc/network/interfaces says "auto lo" and "iface lo inet loopback" [01:03] Quick question, would a UbuntuBoy no problems for me so far [01:03] lol [01:03] fail [01:04] UbuntuBoy no problems for me so far [01:04] sky, Then your network is being handled by the network manager applet on your panel is that right. Does it offer any insight? [01:05] anybody around that can help me with a grub issue? [01:05] ubuntu lucid lynx LVM pb [01:05] !anybody | jebmpls [01:05] jebmpls: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? [01:06] jebmpls, what s the problem [01:06] edbian & EntityReborn2: what would you say it's like compared to jaunty? [01:06] I'm installed ubuntu on my machine and now it goes blank after startup, ctrl-alt-f1 doesn't load in a terminal, I have tried grub options to drop me into the single mode.. nothing helps.. i booted in via livecd, mounted my disk and in kern.log/syslog there's alot of "nouveau: unplugged DVI" /plugged DVI lines.. [01:06] UbuntuBoy, Current jaunty or the day jaunty came out? [01:06] I am setting LVM using the Desktop CD [01:06] load CD live [01:06] any idea how to boot in without loading nouveau? [01:06] I have a new system with a fresh install of 10.04 server on it and it will only boot to the grub rescue screen. Thoughts? [01:07] current jaunty [01:07] then partition my drive [01:07] Which is the command which tells my Username ? [01:07] alket: whoami [01:07] with LVM [01:07] UbuntuBoy, Not as bug free as current jaunty [01:07] What would be the best way to expand my partition? [01:07] alket: whoami [01:07] alket, who [01:07] thank you [01:07] codeyman: can you boot using the recovery mode? [01:07] alket, who shows everybody logged in right now. whoami... well that's obvious [01:07] Haven't trid [01:07] so try that? [01:07] jebmpls, type :update-grub2 [01:07] darolu: i can tell it boots.. but still blank on bootup [01:08] edbian: it is close? [01:08] all seems well until I need to chroot to target and do apt-get update and apt-get lvm2 [01:08] aguitel, from rescue mode? [01:08] codeyman: when using the recovery mode, can you see the booting options? like "boot to root shell"? [01:08] darolu: earlier versions of ubuntu used to work fine.. [01:08] 'id' command is another good one [01:08] why don't qt apps or compiz pick up my mouse cursor settings? [01:08] UbuntuBoy, Yeah. Bugs really go by a package by package basis as well. I might be using different packages than you. It is acceptable though. [01:08] jebmpls, there is normal boot optin? [01:08] jebmpls, option [01:09] anyone with lvm experience please help :-) [01:09] codeyman: yes I know, lucid has some issues with nvidia cards :( [01:09] Random832, Because the two systems are not well integrated [01:09] aguitel, nope, I can boot into rescue mode with the install cd [01:09] darolu: you mean rescue mode via live cd? [01:09] edbian: i was _sure_ that mouse cursor settings were an X server thing, though [01:09] after updating to lucid, i can no longer use apt-get because it complains about fglrx having unmet dependencies. how can i resolve this issue? [01:09] codeyman: no, rescue mode with your already installed kernel [01:09] How do i install a Intel GMA 3150 in 10.04? [01:09] no.. I don't see that [01:09] Random832, I usually turn compiz off to change my mouse then when I have the cursor I want I turn compiz back on and restart [01:09] and it works for pure-X apps like xterm/xev [01:09] Can I use an ubuntu server livecd to expand my partition? [01:09] edbian: what kind of bugs are you having? [01:09] darolu: no I don't see that.. [01:09] I just installed Ubuntu 9.04 but upon my first boot I get error 18 [01:10] edbian: this happens even after multiple restarts [01:10] and no explanation on why qt apps use the default cursor [01:10] jebmpls, what about the grub [01:10] edbian: nope nothing. I was mistaken though, the green light is also blinking... [01:10] UbuntuBoy, Little graphical things. Small bits of windows left. Does that make sense? I haven't had a system freeze yet and I got it the day it came out. [01:10] aguitel, not sure what you are asking? [01:10] sky, If both lights are on then there should be no problem with the hardware... [01:10] How do i install a Intel GMA 3150 in 10.04? [01:11] edbian: I'm well aware of that :P, yet a problem exists (in multiple OSes) [01:11] jebmpls, why you are using the live cd [01:11] codeyman: it should be one of your GRUB menu enties... weird, if you can boot using a live cd, you can rename the /etc/init/gdm.conf file to /etc/init/gdm.conf-disabled so your next boot won't launch xserver and try to fix it from there, installing the proprietary nvidia driver should fix your problem [01:11] sky, What does network manager say about your current connections?? [01:11] How do I choose what version of a program I want to apt-get? [01:11] bluebaron, You automatically get the newest version. Do you want a different version? [01:11] updating to ubuntu 10.04 has rendered mail-notification unable to save passwords to the keyring - removing and installing the gnome keyring has done no good, I have no idea if that's even how it's trying to save passwords anymore. [01:12] aguitel, not using the live cd. when I boot from the hd only have a grub resuce prompt. I can boot from the cd in rescue mode, but not sure where to go from there. [01:12] edbian: yes, i can't use php 5.3 with zend debugger [01:12] darolu: you mean to say that get the driver from nvidia website and later install it in txt mode in the real kernel? [01:12] how do I add stuff into indicator applet? (and remove entries from indicator applet too) [01:12] this is the first boot later from fresh install ? [01:12] codeyman: that is correct [01:12] edbian: thanks for the help :) [01:13] bluebaron, "sudo apt-get install =" [01:13] UbuntuBoy, No prob [01:13] edbian: I don't mind compiling it myself if that's what I have to [01:13] ayuitel, yes [01:13] thank you [01:13] darolu: I will try that.. thanks [01:13] Is there a driver for Intel GMA 3150 available yet? [01:13] Can I get any help with my Ubuntu OS here? [01:13] Anyone with an Error 18 at bootup? [01:13] anyone knows? [01:13] valentin-de, Search "GMA 3150" in synaptic [01:14] jebmpls,install again [01:14] Nitro, You came to the right place :) [01:14] aguitel, yes right after the reboot, also, tried the grub2-update with no sucess [01:14] jebmpls, is :update-grub [01:14] aguitel, also tried to reinstall with the same results [01:14] jebmpls, the grub ,is installed?

I have speakers set up throughout the apartment. The speakers are connected to my main machine. I want to capture the audio from the netbook and stream it to my main machine. RTP is not an option because "If you lose a packet [which it does, multiple times per minute] it's gone." I'm thinking I... [02:01] ...can hook the audio and route it through an mp3 streaming server. I'm wondering how to do this, and if there are better ideas then I am open to them. [02:01] Would I hit 'Q' or Enter? [02:01] so anyone know of a way to UN symlink files?

[02:05] you guys are no help at all [02:05] Narya: that's the notification area [02:05] greezmunkey: I need some sort of CLI way to pause VLC. You can do this with wget + http interface. I don't think the mozilla plugin works this way, it's just a GUI right? [02:05] Ah, I don't know I am at the part where it uncrompressed in terminal and says brian@HLTTech1337:~/Downloads$ [02:06] Narya: xchat and network manager haven't been ported to indicators [02:06] Does anyone know why clamAV for windows detects two threats that clamav for linux does not? dont they use the same definitions?

[02:08] did u accept the agreement [02:08] Narya: I don't think you're the only one who has done that [02:08] not sure how to describe it, if i change settings to include other colour components, the problem eases [02:08] Yes [02:08] It got to the point where it uncompressed [02:08] crdlb: thank you.

[02:34] ok [02:35] Nitro: sorry, program went all funky on me [02:35] wulfgar|laptop: the only other thought I have is that the service might not be config'ed for 8080 by default.

[02:36] Jon--: that is off topic here /join #bash please [02:36] I mean LVM with LUCID LYNX live CD [02:36] Ok [02:36] Jon--: If you pass 2 arguments to the script, $# is equal to 2.

[03:27] Appl6: cambiador de aplicaciones en anillo [03:27] i wanna be able to make my irssi window slightly transparrent [03:28] is there a way to make vino-server automatically start at login without prompting to unlock the system keyring? (lucid) [03:28] ncfi1013 try using this under your current system. if it works then it will work with the new version https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PortableDevices/iPhone [03:28] greezmunkey, if I run ifconfig I see that all my received packets are dropped. Could this be some bug in the driver? [03:29] removing the ubuntu-destop package only removes one package, i want to gut the GUI and all of the other no essential things [03:29] heya linuxers - i have this pci-e sata controller made by startech, and i want to boot from a drive i have plugged in to it [03:29] seems like the keyring isn't a good thing to have just auto-unlock though, any way I can get vino-server to not keep the server-side password in the keyring? [03:29] press ALT + middle scroll down if you have Compiz to set transparency if you have Compiz [03:29] thanx awc u have been great [03:30] it has hoary on it still [03:30] hi... how do i start the Toshutils application? [03:30] your welcome ncfi1013 [03:30] is this something that generally should just work after putting the card in? [03:30] will lucid emacs be updating to 23.2 ? [03:30] having problems with buffering on netflix with my virtual box [03:30] crypt-0: in theory, most of the gui stuff was installed as dependencies to ubuntu-desktop, and I think they'll show up as auto-removable once ubuntu-desktop is gone (because they were pulled in as dependencies and not manually installed) [03:30] sound is clipping and bitty [03:31] dburger: what version does lucid has¿ [03:31] justdave, there is still a lot of junk around [03:31] !info emacs [03:32] ubuntu 10.04 crashes randomly, anyone having same issue [03:32] emacs (source: emacs23): The GNU Emacs editor (metapackage).

[03:32] linux_is_my_hero join #vbox they should be able to help you [03:32] Anyone know if main is OSI compliant? [03:32] 23.1.1, I see the 23.2 release has cedet in it and wondering if I should wait for lucid to update to it or abandon the package system [03:32] boletow: are you doing stuff when it crashes? or is it just sitting there [03:32] hey my default keyring is locked [03:32] crypt-0: otherwise I'd say just start removing stuff like xserver-xorg and gnome-session [03:32] and it keeps asking me [03:33] can change this [03:33] justdave, yes. [03:33] hi , I got a wierd request >< , is there a way to make the icons in the Shortcut menu on the desktop in Xubuntu 10.4 ? [03:33] thewolf:I am browsing on chromium, when it crashes [03:33] does no one know how to alter window transparency in 10.04? alt + scroll down doesn't work anymore :| [03:33] thewolf:do u have the same issue [03:34] dburger: you may wanna try emacs PPA https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-elisp/+archive/ppa [03:34] justdave, is there a way to lost installed packages in order of size? [03:34] PPA = ??? [03:34] oh, is not for lucid :S [03:34] please? :( i googled and there's no info on it. or at least i can't find any :\ [03:34] thewolf: I meant, do u also have the same issue [03:34] never mind me lol I found it [03:34] crypt-0: no idea [03:34] j800r: Do you use the CompizConfig Manager? [03:35] Stormcr0w: the settings manager? [03:35] i have it installed [03:35] j800r: Yes [03:35] j800r: It should be somewhere in there [03:35] only way i know how to use transparency is via alt + scrollwheel. that worked for previous versions [03:35] Is konqueror installed by default on ubuntu 10.04? [03:35] bootstrap: no [03:35] bootstrap: maybe Kubuntu though [03:36] I thought not, but for me it was. [03:36] boletow: I had programs crashing when I was doing stuff... compiz crashed more than it usely did... tomboy kept popping up... Gwibber woudn't work..I had updated from 9.10 to 10.04... I just backed up and did a clean install and everything is running normall... execpet gwibber :( [03:36] konqueror kinda sucks anyway (no offence) [03:36] j800r: i think this might be what your looking for in gnome-terminal... Edit --> Profiles --> Edit (selected profile) --> Background tab [03:36] j800r: no it doesn't [03:36] j800r: it's great [03:36] j800r: The mouse shortcut might have gotten deactivated.

Apple forked the KHTML rendering enginge that Konqueror uses, and made Webkit, which Chrome, Chromium, and Safari all use [03:37] is there some known issue with Lite On dvd burners?

[03:39] how do i seperate my im client and all that from the power button thingy? (this is probably on google, but i didnt know what to call it) [03:39] Nitro: If you have the extra plugins, there should be an option about desktop cylinder [03:39] Beside compiz [03:39] xangua: i installed the restricted-extras still says i need to update my flash player. does that require a restart after installing the extras? [03:39] w00t! i got it working [03:39] thewolf:thanks [03:39] Hmm [03:39] kormath: probably yes [03:40] Nitro: If there is none, then go into synaptic and download/install compiz-fusion-plugins-extra [03:40] unfortunately doesn't work too well with this wallpaper though...might need a darker one :\ [03:40] SEBSEBSEB: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/430339/ [03:40] boletow: just be sure if you got a lot of addons for something... say firefox... backup that file...

[03:41] linux_is_my_hero: hrm at the name your using for your virtual hard disk [03:41] linux_is_my_hero: not a vbox expert, but it seems to suggest you've already got a file of that name setup. vbox configs are in a .hidden file. Show the file, delete the machine and vdi files and try again [03:42] Ok now? [03:42] help meh! i was working in gconf-editor, and i set the computer_icon_name to something other than and now nautilus is broke [03:42] linux_is_my_hero: yes it seems your already using that name, for a virtual hard disk, that already exists [03:42] boletow: firefox is under your home folder... just click view hidden filles... and .mozilla is firefox... .songbird=songbird .compiz=compiz [03:42] acerimmer: whats the "show" command for hidden files in nautilus?

[03:49] linux_is_my_hero: uh [03:49] morphix: you might need to add rules for those ports, but gufw will probably work for you [03:49] linux_is_my_hero: you have done encryption for home? [03:49] anybody have a notebook hp pavilion dv6245us with ubuntu 10.04 with the bluetooth integrated module working? [03:49] i just installed linux and i am having trouble with my mic/webcam and watching videos and listening to streaming music. anyone help? [03:49] i dont remember how do i check?

[03:49] linux_is_my_hero: well whta's .encryptfs? [03:49] linux_is_my_hero: also I don't recommend doing home encryption at all, unless you really need it [03:49] Umm [03:49] All of sudden [03:49] nvm [03:49] is your mouse usb or ps2? [03:50] linux_is_my_hero: and if that's the case, then whole hard disk encryption would be better [03:50] sebsebseb: where are the virtualbox files? [03:50] kidtp, what site are you trying to listen to streaming music on? [03:50] sebsebseb: DANG you're good! didn't even think of encrypt [03:50] napster.com [03:50] linux_is_my_hero: in your home folder. in .virtualbox [03:50] anyone here having problems with lucid splash screen? [03:50] onetinsoldier: i dont use ufw or gufw [03:50] just iptables [03:50] acerimmer: I saw it, in what he showed me [03:50] I keep getting errors related to agpgart, but I'm using PCI-E graphics [03:50] were can i setup my wireless card from CLI [03:50] acerimmer: .encryptfs so I am assuming encrypted home [03:50] I am havinh some Vsingh165 [03:50] can anyone help with my mouse issue?

[03:51] sebsebseb: i dont know if its encrypted ill worry about that later. but i found my virtualbox file and deleted it. i was looking in the wrong place. :-) [03:51] RickyWh: use synaptic pkg manager [03:51] /apps/nautilus/desktop/home_icon_name <-- what is this?

[03:51] Umm [03:51] it's a server [03:51] All of a sudden [03:51] RickyWh: aptitude search APPNAME [03:51] linux_is_my_hero: well it won't be encrypted by default, but you have the option with 9.10 and 10.04 to do so on install [03:51] RickyWh: you can also use tab completion with apt-get [03:51] apt-cache search package RickyWh [03:51] linux_is_my_hero: and if it's encrypted and you re install Ubuntu, you could get issues [03:51] my screen went real dark now over my windows it does not show the X and minimize buttons? [03:51] Anyone know how to fix that? [03:51] linux_is_my_hero: .VirtualBox>HardDisks>ComputerName.vdi and .VirtuaBox>Machines>Machine Name [03:52] aptitude: command not found [03:52] vsing165it sometimes does not show at all [03:52] anyone know how to enable the bluetooth integrated module of a notebook hp pavilion dv6245us? [03:52] morphix: well i think you'll need to set up some sort of iptables firewall to do what you were asking. ufw is one [03:52] GothSpark: what graphics do you use? I have nvidia 7900GTO on pci-express slot [03:52] yes, apt-cache works nicely [03:52] linux_is_my_hero: go into the vm settings [03:52] linux_is_my_hero: look at sound [03:52] Nitro, logout and log back in, your window manager crashed I think. [03:52] linux_is_my_hero: there will be probably like three options to choose from. pulse audio and such [03:53] linux_is_my_hero: of course you need a vm installed on there first [03:53] how do i setup my wireless card from CLI [03:53] I have just found out my wireless card is dropping packets because it can't decrypt them. That's some sort of result, I guess [03:53] flash video fullscreen = slow [03:53] vsingh165 I have a Nvidia 9400GT [03:53] does anyone know the adobe url that i need to use to adjust cam and mic settings [03:53] how do I get the list of packages currently installed on my system [03:53] GothSpark: maybe if I disable the AGP slot in BIOS, it'll solve the issue? [03:53] not able to sustain more than about 3fps [03:53] RickyWh: I really like aptitude compared to any other command line package manager. You may want to check it out and consider installing it. [03:53] linux_is_my_hero: or at least the first bit done. then you can go to settings, before loading up for the first time [03:53] GothSpark: I'll brb lemme try it [03:53] Ok thanks [03:53] RickyWh: 'dpkg -l [03:53] RickyWh: dpkg -l | grep ^ii | less [03:53] yeah i am still getting that error i pastebinned [03:53] was working until the rc build [03:54] sebsebseb: im still getting the same error [03:54] sebsebseb: how to encrypt after full installation is complete??

[03:55] sebsebseb: im just gunna reinstall virtualbox itself then try another machine and hope it works [03:56] linux_is_my_hero: no this is not Windows [03:56] and the next vm ill use ur recommended setting also [03:56] Anyone know the key bindings for the Cylandir Version of the cube? [03:56] linux_is_my_hero: once a program is installed that's it [03:56] linux_is_my_hero: you woudn't normally need to re install it [03:56] RickyWh: you might give aptitude a try.. use / key to seach for name or partial name. press 'underscore' _ key on a highlighted page to mark it for purging. then press 'g' to go(excecute) [03:56] linux_is_my_hero, what error exactly are you getting? [03:56] hold on pastbinning now [03:56] linux_is_my_hero: you can do, but no ponit, when you can just delete it's .folder. and start over like that [03:56] RickyWh: or you could use synaptic [03:57] page = package [03:57] i'm simply trying to find where my mysql is and locate mysql doesn't work [03:57] updatedb doesn't either :S [03:57] Oh nevermind [03:57] RickyWh whereis mysql? [03:57] Nitro: You set the key bindings yourself within the settings manager [03:57] sebsebseb: same as before, http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/430339/ [03:57] GothSpark: Couldn't disable AGP in bios, so I still have the bootsplash problem [03:57] Nitro: you have to select Cube reflection and Deformation Under Effects in Compiz to get spherical [03:57] hi [03:57] RickyWh: updatedb isn't working on your system? [03:57] Nitro: They are typically the same as those for the cube [03:57] how do i stop mysql service? [03:57] Yeah I got it [03:58] whats the feed url for facebook ? I am using gwibber on Jaunty [03:58] onetinsoldier, -bash: updatedb: command not found [03:58] RickyWh: sudo /etc/init.d/mysqld stop (I think, correct me if I'm wrong) [03:58] how do i adjust ubuntu security settings [03:58] RickyWh: hang on, i'll use apt-file to see what installs updatedb [03:58] i'm trying to set video output to xvideosink gstreamer-properties, but it can't initialize the xv output. does this mean my graphics card isn't configured properly? [03:58] Nitro: I meant cylinder [03:58] z3r0-c001: like a firewall? [03:59] linux_is_my_hero: maybe it doesn't like having a - in the name of the vdi, try a differnet name, also that name is kind of funny what your using in a wya [03:59] no like when it ask you for paswords and such [03:59] ook vsingh165 [03:59] linux_is_my_hero: in a way [03:59] z3r0-c001: it will ask when something requires admin priveleges [04:00] linux_is_my_hero: you have'n those problems after upgrade? [04:00] linux_is_my_hero: make a new hard disk, and give it a differnet name [04:00] ok so after seeing packages listed using dpkg -l, I use apt-get remove packagename? [04:00] RickyWh: updatedb is installed on my system by the 'mlocate' package === Radio-l is now known as Radio-a [04:00] Anyone know how to use Teamspeak 3 in Ubuntu? [04:00] sebsebseb: okay [04:00] vsingh165 i want it to ask more often it should be adjustable some way [04:00] linux_is_my_hero: just letters this time also [04:00] I only have LXDE installed and wanted to know what is the GUI app frontend for the users groups called, or what package installs, it? from the CLI it's run as gksudo users-admin... THANKS [04:00] linux_is_my_hero: altough numbers should be ok as well [04:00] linux_is_my_hero: as far as I know [04:00] anyone even got bluetooth working in hp notebooks series 2000, 6000, 9000????? [04:00] how can i run c code in ubuntu [04:01] z3r0-c001 in terminal, run 'sudo visudo' (w/o quotes) [04:01] linux_is_my_hero: I had to recompile to kernel after the upgrade.... it was giving me the same errors.... quick fix though [04:01] linux_is_my_hero: so you get the name for the virtual machine first, but also later on, when your setting up the virtual hard disk, you can give it your own name [04:01] how can i run c code in ubuntu [04:01] linux_is_my_hero, I have an idea about your problem [04:01] dbum: yes linux_is_my_hero might need some sort of kernel module [04:01] z3r0-c001 or if ur not comfy with vim, try 'gksudo gedit /etc/sudoers' [04:01] ubuntujeff: im all ears :-) [04:01] can i just make it a script and run it [04:01] sebsebseb: what am i missing? [04:01] linux_is_my_hero: you might need a kernel module, but first try with differnet names as I was saying [04:02] nah.... it told me the command to run..... you have to start from terminal and it will tell you the command [04:02] vsingh165 is there a visual way im new to terminal [04:02] linux_is_my_hero, go to file > Virtual Disk Manager, make sure the harddisk image isn't showing in that list if it is release it. Even though you deleted it and all that, if it still shows up in that list it won't let you make another one same name [04:02] z3r0-c001 hit Alt-F2 and run the 'gksudo gedit /etc/sudoers' from there [04:02] linux_is_my_hero: you could also try later on if still problems, the other version, that has USB support as well, that will probably install a kernel module as well [04:02] it'll ask u for ur password [04:02] hi [04:02] btw, anyone else here having bootsplash issues? [04:02] what version supports usb? [04:03] In ubuntu 10.04, which program keeps entered WEP keys? (Without starting the gnome-session process, I have to enter a WEP Key every time I log in.) [04:03] vsingh165: yes [04:03] after installing proprietary nvidia drivers, mine screwed up [04:03] what kind of adjustment wil that offer [04:03] vsingh165: yes [04:03] hi [04:03] vsingh165: indeed [04:03] No one knows? [04:03] vsingh165: known issue, I also got effected on the other computer [04:03] linux_is_my_hero: have you tried that yet? (starting from terminal?) [04:03] z3r0-c001: do you see the line in the file that says 'root ALL=(ALL) ALL'? [04:03] sebsebseb: have u found a fix for it? [04:03] vsingh165: well sort of [04:03] linux_is_my_hero, did you try what I suggested? [04:03] sebsebseb: on mine, it can't recognize my chipset's AGP controller, even tho my video card is pcie [04:04] sure [04:04] sebsebseb: where are the files for the closed-course version of virtualbox that supports usb? [04:04] vsingh165: basically 10.04 installs an open driver for Plymouth, that works fine with it [04:04] hola [04:04] sebsebseb: closed-source [04:04] vsingh165: however since Plymouth doesn't like the propritary ATI or Nivida drivers, once that is installed [04:04] vsingh165: problems probably [04:04] z3r0-c001 type the same line below the 'root....' line, but replace 'root' with your username [04:04] vsingh165: or those drivers don't like Plymouth one or the other [04:04] ghgfhghg [04:05] sebsebseb: I'm wondering if u can like reconfigure the bootsplash [04:05] linux_is_my_hero: the debs are at http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads (none made for Lucid yet) [04:05] sebsebseb: b/c I remember in older versions of ubuntu you could [04:05] vsingh165: nope [04:05] Man ubuntu-one is still pretty buggy. Ive got a folder in my account that I made and deleted months and months ago, yet the name still shows and yet its unselectable for deletion. Strange. [04:05] OSE version is crap [04:05] vsingh165: right, but they also used a complety differnet boot up [04:05] How do I get that fixed? [04:05] sebsebseb: I know. So y did they break it? lol [04:05] some one talk in spanish? [04:05] !es [04:05] En la mayoría de canales de Ubuntu se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español o charlar entra en el canal #ubuntu-es. Escribe "/join #ubuntu-es" (sin comillas) y dale a enter. [04:06] sebsebseb: yeah nothing fancy i just need it to run windows so i can watch netflix ;-) [04:06] vsingh165: why did who brake it? [04:06] sebsebseb: the ubuntu devs. why did they have to break a bootsplash that worked just fine [04:06] !virtualbox | linux_is_my_hero [04:06] linux_is_my_hero: virtualbox is a x86 !virtualizer.

You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org while you wait. [04:07] I have a problem with grub2 [04:07] IHateGrub2: great name :) [04:07] ubuntu fails to install on my raid hard drive [04:07] IHateGrub2: Grub 2 sucks really compared to the previous version [04:07] thanks [04:07] !grub2 | IHateGrub2 [04:07] IHateGrub2: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 [04:07] mcl0vin: Whats the make and model of the card? [04:08] hey, is it possible to use vbeinfo inside of grub-emu? [04:08] does anybody know if Emapthy has fixed the bug with working behind a system wide proxy? [04:08] mcl0vin: the easy way is to use wicd. it has a cli client [04:08] vsingh165: basically you can't use the propritary driver [04:08] vsingh165: if you want Plymouth work properly, at the moment [04:08] vsingh165: what you can easilly do, is have a text boot up instead [04:09] LinuxGuy2009: netgear , the system see it and i can thru iwlist, but i don't know where to setup essid and key etc [04:09] vsingh165: also I assume your installing the propritary driver, since you want OpenGL support for games or something? [04:09] sebsebseb: i'm using fglrx driver and i think plymouth is working ok here [04:09] onetinsoldier: that's a driver for what? [04:09] sebsebseb: yes, I use second life [04:09] sebsebseb: and blender for 3D stuff [04:09] vsingh165: ah [04:09] sebsebseb: proprietary ati video driver [04:09] sebsebseb: that doesn't really help since I am currently unable to boot from my HDD (using liveCD) and I don't have a 10.04 liveCD yet [04:09] anyone able to install vbox 3.2 beta2 .. i get conflict error [04:09] sebsebseb: I'm reinstalling plymouth with apt-get right now...maybe that'll fix it? [04:09] vsingh165: probaby not stuff you would want to virtual machine, but I guess you could virtual machine and have OpenGL like that :D [04:10] vsingh165: no that won't fix it [04:10] axisys, where do you download that one at? I will try to install it and tell you if I get it or not [04:10] vsingh165: if you have the propritary driver installed that's it, it's broken [04:10] mcl0vin: are you trying to connect to open wifi, or use encryption [04:10] onetinsoldier: oh right, well vsingh165 said he has Nivida [04:10] sebsebseb: roger [04:10] sebsebseb: or I could just disable plymouth altogether, have text during boot :) [04:10] UbuntuJeff: http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/3.2.0_BETA2/ [04:10] vsingh165: yes [04:11] vsingh165: and i'll tell you how soon hold on [04:11] sebsebseb: I used to use arch linux, there was no bootsplash...okay [04:11] I am using version 10.04 of ubuntu and cannot get my mic and webcam to work. i am also having issues with youtube and other video playing websites. [04:11] yoyoned: encryption [04:11] vsingh165: the actsaul plymouth package doesn't go, since it wants to take loads of other stuff with it, however you don't need to remove that [04:11] why does firefox not load any pages, it's like im not connected to the net, but irc works fine ! [04:11] kidtp: what troubles are you having with youtube? does it not play videos? [04:11] axisys, downloading [04:12] UbuntuJeff: k [04:12] vsingh165: it lags and sometimes does not even play. the video screen will stay black [04:12] kidtp: run this in command line (it will ask you for ur password): 'sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras' (w/o quotes) [04:12] whats the feed url for facebook ? I am using gwibber on Jaunty [04:12] sebsebseb, is there a way for me to copy perhaps linux.mod file from the internet? [04:12] kidtp: you also need proper graphics drivers [04:12] Hey. I don't want GUI vim, but I do want my terminal vim to access the clipboard. What package should I install? [04:12] kidtp: what video card does your computer have? [04:12] IHateGrub2: I don't know [04:12] vsingh165: remove plymouth-label, plymouth-theme-ubuntu-{logo,text}, and plymouth-x11; then remove "splash" from /etc/default/grub and do sudo update-grub [04:12] i am not sure [04:12] sebsebseb: kthx [04:13] it's weird but during the grub rescue> I can not use "search" nor can I use "linux" not even "initrd" [04:13] vsingh165: np [04:13] vsingh165: i do not think it is very high because it is only a laptop but i am not certain [04:13] does exist a way to install window$ drivers in linux apart from ndiswrapper???? [04:13] well then, I guess my only chance is to keep using the liveCD till I figure it out myself, seems that this bug still has no solution [04:13] Roah: for a wireless, nah I guess not [04:13] !ping [04:13] pong [04:13] Do you guys think if I use the directx9 runtime under wine (instead of the native version), it might get me disconnected from games that use HackShield? I'm getting booted and I'm trying to figure out why [04:14] mcl0vin: http://www.linux.com/news/enterprise/networking/8259-making-wireless-work-in-ubuntu [04:14] fynn: well, i can paste stuff into vim with my middle mouse button. that not what you want? [04:14] oh to late they left IHateGrub [04:14] Roah: I use ndiswrapper for my wireless card (Linksys WUSB11v4) [04:14] they could use the old version of Grub [04:14] hi, my left shift key opens up the shutdown menu and my right one doesn't work. help [04:14] KinKing, thats probably an incompatibility with HackShield and wine thats causing you to kick, so there flagging wine as a cheat [04:15] exactly. gameguard and hackshield and xtrap don't load in wine [04:15] I'm trying to find a possible hardware error from my new barebones kit (thinking HD or mobo)... I have ubuntu installed yet it crashes and/or freezes frequently... usually during package installation. Anyone have any insight for me? [04:15] onetinsoldier: not exactly; I want access to/from the "* and "+ buffers [04:15] KenWeiLL, I got into the game though [04:15] fynn: oh... don't know [04:15] I just got booted after 5 mins or so [04:16] owh? how? it won't load in mine [04:16] Well it did =P [04:16] error902: RAM [04:16] hi all [04:16] hi folks, how to I generate locale in ubuntu on the cli? [04:16] vsingh165: ok it asked my for a password...what do i put in there? [04:16] so, Lucid doesn't have an xorg.conf file anymore, and it failed to detect my video hardware (which is normal, it's an NTSC out jack). Where do I need to put my manual settings to get it to detect the NTSC jack? (or what can I kick from the command line to convince it to find it?) [04:17] onetinsoldier: nvm, thanks. [04:17] I ran a couple memory tests and it passed everything [04:17] sebas891: dpkg-reconfigure locales [04:17] i can't play warcraft with ubuntu 10.04 anymore... when trying to load warcraft, screen goes to black.. then endup in the login window. as if im being logged out. :( [04:17] anything i should try besides the linux memtest? [04:17] disk mounter 2.30.0 is not working good anymore [04:17] i don't see why anyone bothers playing windows games on linux [04:17] my HDDs are not appearing [04:17] error902: you used memtest86+? [04:17] bodom: ok, I tried that, but it doesn't let my choose the default. [04:17] hi, my left shift key opens up the shutdown menu and my right one doesn't work. help [04:17] yes [04:17] sebas891: update-locale? [04:18] hello [04:18] it used to work in 9.10 [04:18] anyone else with disk mounter issues? [04:18] UbuntuJeff, You're saying I get kicked from inside the game cuz the way wine gets read is marked as a cheat? [04:18] sebas891: nvm, don't think that will be it either [04:18] error902: so ram is fine, probably mobo too [04:18] axisys: I just installed VB 3.2 Beta..... works like a charm......oh.... well I can't mount my usb devices in my VB... runs Win7 great though [04:18] KinKing, its a posibility, or HackShield trys to check you for running cheats and wine doesn't communicate right. So hackshield flags it as not sure and that kicks you. Have seen that happen [04:19] I want to enable Extra tab under Visual effects in ubuntu 9.1 but it says cant enable desktop effects. Please help [04:19] why would ubuntu be requiring me to enter a password to access shares via samba? [04:19] onetinsoldier: nope, update-locale tells me *** update-locale: Error: invalid locale settings: LANG="es_AR.UTF-8" [04:19] dbum: you need start hald manually and then start the guest [04:19] itilious: just press enter [04:19] UbuntuJeff, Yeah I'd go for the "not sure," cuz it would just seem like they'd be hating on the linux community otherwise...? [04:19] I want to enable Extra tab under Visual effects in ubuntu 9.1 but it says cant enable desktop effects. Please help [04:19] axisys: K [04:19] ok ty bodom... [04:19] KinKing, I don't know I have seen that happen before lol [04:19] sebas891: oh, doesn't sound good [04:19] dbum: just found out from #vbox channel.. and tested.. now I can see the usbs [04:20] /join apache [04:20] KenWeiLL, thanks :) [04:20] justdave, what about xrandr [04:20] it was working good till yesterday when I updated the system from Synaptic [04:20] onetinsoldier: indeed [04:20] how do I check if there are any errors across my whole server right now? [04:20] welcome [04:20] axisys: start hald??? [04:20] dbum: yes [04:20] I want to enable Extra tab under Visual effects in ubuntu 9.1 but it says cant enable desktop effects. Please help [04:20] error902: nothing [04:20] sudo hald should do the magic [04:20] UbuntuJeff, So you don't think it's a misscommunication from directx9 right? [04:20] dbum: ^ [04:21] I cannot surf the web with firefox or epiphany but irc works fine, what's wrong here ? [04:21] sebas891: what does it show if you do the following command? env | grep LANG [04:21] Dreamglider: firewall? [04:21] anyone know how to speed up the internet connection in a virtual machine? [04:21] UbuntuJeff, If something is getting sent wrong, maybe that could be tracked? [04:21] Dreamglider: ask your internet provider [04:21] hell [04:21] hello [04:21] onetinsoldier: I found something... in /var/lib/locales/supported.d/local [04:21] onetinsoldier: en_GB ISO-8859-1 [04:21] sebas891: roger [04:21] dreamglider: try to disable proxy... set to no proxy or direct connection [04:21] KinKing, best guess is look the game up on WineAppDB and look up hackshield as well, see if anyone else has had that problem [04:21] nivekc1: buy a faster ADSL :D [04:21] bodom, not unless the firewall turned on itself! [04:22] KenWeiLL, im using direct. [04:22] no proxy [04:22] I want to enable Extra tab under Visual effects in ubuntu 9.1 but it says cant enable desktop effects. Please help [04:22] UbuntuJeff, Actually the game is marked as "does not even run" on the appdb [04:22] sebas891: what does it show if you do the following command? env | grep LANG [04:22] how about in firefox? proxy settings [04:22] KinKing, what game? curiousity? [04:22] UbuntuJeff, Ace Online [04:22] onetinsoldier: env | grep LANG gives LANG=es_AR.UTF-8 [04:22] Dreamglider: can you ping 151.1.1.1? [04:22] it just happened all of a sudden. firefox proxy is non [04:22] sebas891: that looks ok [04:22] onetinsoldier: I'll had this to the /var/lib/locales/supported.d/local [04:22] axisys: I'm guessing I have to restart VB..... I usually just save machine state...... trying now (sudo hald did something) [04:22] KinKing, then best guess is its just a incompatibility problem with wine and the anticheat on the game [04:23] rafaelsoaresbr: hmm, interesting, xrandr --prop claims it's already using the TV out, but I don't see anything on the screen. [04:23] I want to enable Extra tab under Visual effects in ubuntu 9.1 but it says cant enable desktop effects. Please help [04:23] bodom, it times out [04:23] dbum: might be.. try it [04:23] onetinsoldier: yes, but they are not generated, (es_AR.UTF-8) [04:23] sebas891: hmm, i don't know [04:23] KinKing, [Bug 4666] anti-cheat system HackShield doesn't work [04:23] heya i got a problem how can i activate middle click scroll on chrome?

[04:23] dream: try to disconnect your connection.. then connect again... probably DNS problem [04:23] KinKing, with wine I mean, so I think that is your problem [04:23] Hola [04:24] primera vez aqui [04:24] rafaelsoaresbr: worked fine in Intrepid, I went and upgraded. :) (well, reloaded the box from scratch) [04:24] erg , ok while trying to get back icons on Xubuntu i've just hit a wall cause I can't make it works [04:24] axisys: still greyed out..... gonna shut it all down and run hald [04:24] how do I check if there are any errors across my whole server right now??? [04:24] KinKing, only other chance I see you having to get it to work, is find a bypass. [04:24] bodom, well it didnt time out, but it jsut sat there same for 8.8.8.8 [04:24] dbum: ok [04:24] heya i got a problem how can i activate middle click scroll on chrome? [04:24] ayuda [04:24] bodom, just a matter of time till it times out [04:24] I want to enable Extra tab under Visual effects in ubuntu 9.1 but it says cant enable desktop effects.

Check iptables -L -v -n [04:25] 有中国人? Chinese? [04:25] UbuntuJeff, On the appdb it says noone can even log in any games at all that have hshield. So I'm the first. I'll try getting a gameguard or xtrap game to work... [04:25] sebas891: awesome! i'm glad you got it sorted :) [04:26] I know [04:26] UbuntuJeff, (At least into the game that is, not like, all the way through) [04:26] UbuntuJeff: It does not show any driver there [04:26] UbuntuJeff: do u have anyidea how to activate middle click scroll for chrome? [04:26] KinKing, fair warning, gameguard doesn't like to play well with wine either. I know that for certain lol [04:26] ask..... [04:26] ravenkhan, go to your graphics card manuafactors website and download the linux driver there [04:26] bod can i pm you the output of the ping ? [04:26] Why is Ubuntu trying so hard to look like OS X? [04:26] bodom, * [04:26] zipper, what do you mean activate middle click scroll? [04:26] not just gameguard... even muguard and xtrap as well [04:26] how to i updated my apt-cache? [04:27] onetinsoldier: thanks for the pointers :) [04:27] UbuntuJeff: Can you tell me site ? I have SIS card [04:27] axisys: They show up....just greyed out.... do you have newest Guest Additions installed? 3.6 I think [04:27] RickyWh, nice english [04:27] UbuntuJeff, Yeah but it's built the same way as hshield isn't it? Maybe... Then the developers can get a hint where to go from there [04:27] UbuntuJeff: u know when we click on the middle clicker on our webpage there is this thing that comes out then we can move it up n down.. [04:27] sebas891: you're welcome, although i don't feel like i did anything ;) [04:27] rick: what do you mean update apt-cache? [04:27] Dreamglider: you can pm it, better use pastebin instead [04:27] RickyWh, apt-get update ? [04:27] ravenkhan, not off the top of my head, google SIS drivers [04:27] does anyone know how Ubuntu sets the style for the notifications from libnotify? [04:27] Im really not sure [04:27] bodom, but i cant use firefox :P [04:28] Yesso, They are "freeing up space" to create panel applets that go in the title bar of apps. A volume applet is a good example. [04:28] KinKing, but almost 70% at least of the market is for windows users so why would they take extra time to help us? honestly. [04:28] dbum: i am still using 3.1.6 [04:28] UbuntuJeff, I meant the wine developers >_> [04:28] zipper, is that feature avaliable in the Windows version?

[04:29] UbuntuJeff: previously before i reformat my lucid i rmb downloading the extension but now i can seem to find it [04:29] gogeta, okay 90% my bad lol [04:29] Yesso, You can move them back using gconf or changing the theme [04:29] hello. - I upgraded from windows xp to windows 7 on my dual boot laptop and I want to restore the MBR so I can go back to dual booting Ubuntu and Windows. how do i do this?

Only reason I still have Windows dual boot is my gaming needs. lol [04:30] UbuntuJeff: lemme test it out brb [04:31] if you have access to exchange web server, you can use davmail to integrate calendar and email in thunderbird or evolution [04:31] UbuntuJeff: nope not this , this is the lousy 1 there is another 1 how can i find it? [04:31] UbuntuJeff, You can accelerate your graphics hardware in a virtual machine now. You don't even need to dual boot. You can virtualize with enough hardware. [04:31] UbuntuJeff: he and the other 10% of us love linux over windows to lol. its getting the non ech savy users over thats the roadblock netbook did give that a good push thow [04:32] edbian, yeah but for gaming like crysis and that. would require major hardware. [04:32] gogeta, true and dell with ubuntu installed on it. helps to [04:32] UbuntuJeff, Good point. How could anybody get by without playing crysis... [04:32] zipper, umm looking [04:32] I'm having an issue connecting to a WPA network, I can set the router to no authentication and it works just perfect, However on WPA, I just can't click the connect button it's greyed out? 10.4? [04:32] the only time i need windows on bare metal is when jailbreak iphone [04:32] edbian, well it was just an example of one game. my favorite right now is Assasins Creed 2 [04:33] UbuntuJeff, That's a better example :) [04:33] edbian, lol. crysis was the first one to come to mind as needing a power hungry computer lol [04:33] UbuntuJeff: i knoe windows users that think you have to pay for linux and never tryed it due to that [04:33] Anyone know how to use Steam on Ubuntu? [04:33] or Teamspeak 3? [04:34] UbuntuJeff, That it definitely does. [04:34] is there a way to set the the number of jobs for make (option of 'make -j XY') from the environment [04:34] Nitro www.winehq.com will help alot :) [04:34] UbuntuJeff: and linux ads have never targeted to correct those misconceptions [04:34] gogeta, thats just people that want to use the computer for internet and that, instead of putting forth some brain cells lol [04:34] hola [04:34] Antiga, you are missing the password feild or the SSID i think [04:35] UbuntuJeff: also those that never herd of it [04:35] UbuntuJeff: hey its ok already i think i manage to find the better 1 [04:35] !es [04:35] En la mayoría de canales de Ubuntu se habla sólo en inglés.

[04:35] zipper, I'm glad man [04:35] I have the correct password in wildbat. but it doesn't even "attempt to connect" the box is greyed out? [04:35] gogeta, curious, how long have you been using Linux? [04:35] http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/430352/ [04:35] UbuntuJeff: 1995 [04:36] Ok thanks [04:36] gogeta, I have been using it since like 2003 lol and I am sorry to the developers of Ubuntu, but I think replacing Pidgin with Empathy was a really bad idea, but thats just my opinion. [04:36] UbuntuJeff I agree with you [04:36] UbuntuJeff: it was a good idea for 9.04 due to its google talk voice support but pidgin has it now [04:36] Antiga, your password too short [04:37] i just installed vmware player in ubuntu 10.04 and restarted my computer, and vmware has disappeared from the system tools menu? How can i open vmware from cli? [04:37] UbuntuJeff: they should have put pidgin back now that it supports it and is just a cleaner app [04:37] gogeta: in 9.10 i found empathy's video support to be much more stable than pidgin's. pidgin's often wouldnt detect my webcam (remedied in 10.04) [04:37] I know it is wildbat, but this is a network password and can't be changed by me. It has to be 4 characters :(. Anyway to force ubuntu to take a 4 character wireless password? [04:37] Antiga, make it 8 character or more [04:37] maco: yep just as i said [04:38] gogeta, I agree and on the topic of pidgin, why is the Message Notification in pidgin disabled by default? No! I don't want to know when I get a new message! lol [04:38] UbuntuJeff: you can turn that off threw pidgin preffs if you dont whant that [04:38] liam_: try the following... sudo updatedb [04:38] gogeta: i dont think pidgin's going to go back in. empathy is THE gnome IM client, and it has the telepathy framework for making awesome things like desktop sharing work (which pidgin cannot do) [04:38] liam_: when that is done, then try... locate vmware [04:39] gogeta, I was being sarcastic, I do want that on, but its disabled by default. The Message Notification plugin is I mean. [04:39] how do I start vino-server without it accessing the gnome keyring?

[05:13] misha, it sets the device /dev/sr0 to be in the "cdrom" group permission wise...assuming you are in this group you then have privileges to do things directly to that device [05:13] bullgard4, man, there is no error. just no drives to choose a partition [05:13] (like possibly open it in a video playback programme) [05:13] how should i install applet [05:13] bullgard4, wait, is there a log file or something i could look ?

[05:17] acicula: ok, i will see if i can add that, to xorg.conf, right? any particular spot in there? [05:17] IsleVegan, the display name and supported resolution you can get by running xrandr without the arguments, requires X to be running though [05:17] how i do that bodom ? [05:17] Hi [05:17] hi guys [05:17] hi [05:17] IsleVegan, its not an xrandr option [05:17] im new herer [05:17] nice to meet you all [05:17] Guest29883, I can see that.

[05:17] you can configure an xorg.conf to enable the external graphics too yeah [05:17] I tried to install Ubuntu 10.04, but it starts loading the CD and goes blank-screen every single time [05:17] Any ideas? [05:17] yeah , that's very kind of you [05:18] dhikr: type VBoxManage showvminfo [05:18] same here david [05:18] it's said tasksel: debconf failed to run [05:18] acicula: maybe i can run that from puppy linux? not sure i know the external display and hardware is capable of 1680 x 1050 [05:18] Figured out how to fix it yet, TroyFoxxin? [05:18] hum , and i think i need sometime to adopt this [05:18] David__, after you selected a language and the option to boot the livecd? [05:18] dhikr: replace with the name of the Virtual Machine [05:18] TroyFoxxin and David__ : boot with the boot parameter "i915.modeset=1" [05:18] no just got here o try to find an answer [05:18] dhikr: then pastebin the output [05:18] IsleVegan, i dont know puppylinux [05:18] you talk so fast [05:18] in stilllearning linux thats just morsecode to me [05:18] hi all can anyone tell that i have installed ubuntu under windows so why it says not enough swap space and doesnt hibernate since at time of installation it didnt asked me how much swap space i want to allocate. [05:19] Acicula, Cogito: It won't even get that far. It blacks out before I have any booting options. [05:19] same here [05:19] TroyFoxxin and David__ : At the grub menu, where you can select all the different kernels, select the one you want and press E instead of enter [05:19] no controls [05:19] It goes to a purple screen with a picture of a keyboard, then blacks out. [05:19] How do I change the resolution of my cli on ubuntu? ( I was told this morning but i had to go and didnt save the transcript) [05:19] there nothing to pick from [05:19] There is no grub menu to get to. [05:19] wildbat_laptop it's said debconf failed to run [05:19] He said i had to do something with grub. [05:19] ravenkhan: did you use wubi¿ how much space did you give to ubuntu¿ [05:19] it goes stright to splash screen then nothing [05:19] CogitoErgoSam, They're talking about the live CD [05:19] oh [05:19] bodom http://pastebin.com/gsBeQ2cZ [05:19] i installed using ubuntu 9.1 cd [05:20] bodom sorry maybe i have doing an error [05:20] kozin, "sudo tasksel" then coz yu ain't root [05:20] acicula: to enable xrandr from xorg.conf I would add DISPLAY=:0 xrandr --output --mode Did you guys verify your ISO's before burning [05:20] !hashes [05:20] See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuHashes for the md5sums of Ubuntu discs. [05:20] thanks [05:20] thats not the issue [05:20] xangua: yeah that cd used wubi [05:20] The iso is fine. [05:20] IsleVegan, no, xorg.conf is not a shell script [05:20] dhikr: no, you need to append the machine name, for example, this is mine: http://pastebin.com/rCGGG81n [05:20] requires it own configuration and values [05:20] something regarding disk mounter is killing my processor [05:20] wasted 3 disc thinking it might be possible and tried doing it with a botable tomb drive. same results [05:21] David__, it does not make it to the screen where you can select a language? just bios boot and then the cd tries to load and black screen? [05:21] IOWait is like 55% [05:21] bullgard4, are you there? i found something that mite be relevant. during boot, i have several error messages saying "Buffer I/O error on device sr0, logical block 357306" [05:21] xangua: 20 Gb and installed using cd of 9.1 [05:21] that was not happened before I updated the system yesterday [05:21] Acicula: Yup. It starts to load the CD, I see a purple screen with a picture of a keyboard = a stick figure.... Then it goes blank completely. The computer is clearly still loading the CD thought... [05:21] you got a intel chip like me david? im on a old pavilion ze400 [05:21] it's still the same wildbat_laptop [05:21] Eventually, I just have to hard reboot [05:22] acicula: ok, i know that xorg.conf is the settings or configuration file for xorg but not familiar with the settings, syntax, and the external display goes off completely maybe 40 seconds into boot of ubuntu 10.04 and won't come back on from the hardware function-f5 key combination. [05:22] same here david [05:22] TroyFoxxin: I've got a Pavillion too [05:22] man gpg: "This is the standalone version of gpg. For desktop use you should consider using gpg2." What is a "desktop use"? [05:22] David__, what hardware, tried a usb stick, did you md5sum the downloaded image to ensure its not corrupted? [05:22] Model: ZE7560n [05:22] hello does anyone know how to stop k3b from interpreting an 8.5GB dvd as a blu ray disk? [05:23] i tried the ubb boot. and it was find [05:23] *usb [05:23] *fine [05:23] hi all can anyone tell that i have installed ubuntu under windows so why it says not enough swap space and doesnt hibernate since at time of installation it didnt asked me how much swap space i want to allocate. [05:23] I haven't tried the USB boot [05:23] gee bad butterfingers today [05:23] that works, Troy? [05:23] no [05:23] how do you do that? [05:23] cool [05:23] same results as disc [05:23] Nige: i don't, have you tried asking in #kubuntu¿ [05:23] but they work fine on my desktop [05:23] i type sudo tasksel and then choose and install ubuntu desktop and type gconftool recursive-unset/apps/panel && killall gnome-panel but it's the same, how should i do? [05:23] hi all can anyone tell that i have installed ubuntu under windows so why it says not enough swap space and doesnt hibernate since at time of installation it didnt ask me how much swap space i want to allocate. [05:24] hi folks,I would like to add an alternatives to ldm-theme, like to add my how theme, update-alternatives --install ... is a confusing. [05:24] acicula: where do you find the md5sum thing? [05:24] nevermind. the answer is in k3b :) [05:24] IsleVegan, dont know why the function F5 wont work, you dont need xorg.conf per se to enable the external graphics, though to permanently disable the laptop display its the easiest way to ensure it. [05:24] ravenkhan: maybe instalations with wubi limit functions [05:24] David__, any linux distro will have it [05:24] bodom http://pastebin.com/eATyP4yF [05:24] xangua, its okay, its explained deep down in k3b :) [05:24] i can't catch with you [05:24] update-alternatives --install /etc/alternatives/ldm-theme ldm-theme /usr/share/ldm/themes/mio/ 100 has mess up the option. [05:24] i have a feeling it wouldnt make a diff usb or cd. [05:24] any one familiar with this? [05:25] David__, failing that you need a windows program to compute the md5sum, mind you its the same algorythm for whatever you install [05:25] xangua: hmm maybe but i think there must be some thing they used to sort out [05:25] acicula: I would love to disable the laptop display, but that is not available in the bios, only two options, "auto selected" and "lcd + rgb", i have tried both. [05:25] hmmm [05:25] TroyFoxxin, did you ever try the alternate install cd as well? [05:25] wildbat_laptop, thanks, it appears to be working, I had to gpart, setup my partitions, and restart. [05:25] dhikr: VBoxManage showvminfo "Windows XP" [05:25] can anyone help me get my tty/boot resolution working, it's blurry for some reason and i've tried many combination in startupmanager [05:25] dhikr: with quotes [05:26] i dun think so. [05:26] MrCabana: At first you told me: "There are no error messages." I believe that your messages saying "Buffer I/O error on device sr0, logical block 357306" might be the culprit. [05:26] bodom oh okay sorry [05:26] SlickT10, ya ~ coz the wizard smething did umount the drive [05:26] IsleVegan, understood, xrandr should let you toggle the screen on and off, xorg.conf is also pretty well documented, dont really want to try to run you through it myself in any case since i havent played with that in quite awhile [05:26] dhikr: you don't have to be sorry [05:26] i still have the problem with panel [05:26] SlickT10, sometime* [05:26] So, question - anybody good with software raid that Linux supports? I'm considering on setting it up when I upgrade to 10.04, but I have no clue what I'm doing, how to set it up, etc. Can anybody give me some insight? [05:26] xangua: can you tell me how i can get my SIS card driver to enable visual effects. [05:27] Roasted, why do you want raid and what raid would you want? [05:27] TroyFoxxin, might be worth a try at some point http://releases.ubuntu.com/releases/10.04/ [05:27] Roasted: are you refering to software, fakeraid, or raid?

[05:28] Roasted: I have a server in the basement running software raid using mdadm which was to be honest a bit of a pain [05:28] downloding alt disc [05:28] acicula: ok, if only there were some way to see what i were doing when in ubuntu, but that's the problem. ubuntu turns off the external display around the time it starts gdm or something [05:29] Roasted: I would recommend picking up a cheap hardware raid, or even using the fakeraid and going for a raid 5 minimum [05:29] tyler_d4, I currently use rsync with two drives. I wonder if itd just be smart for me to continue using rsync, where I would work entirely off of 1 drive and the other is just a backup of raw data? [05:29] IsleVegan, dunno how to get around that one other then blindly logging in [05:29] dhikr: you have no usb device filters [05:29] * justdave gives up and recompiles his own vino server with the gnome-keyring option disabled [05:29] hi to all! how i can install LAMP on Ubuntu ? [05:29] Roasted: that sounds a bit intensive, you would want a 3rd drive anyways, you never stick your os on the raid striped drives.... jsut asking for trouble [05:29] xangua: can you tell me how i can get my SIS card driver to enable visual effects. [05:29] How do I change the resolution of my cli on ubuntu? ( I was told this morning but i had to go and didnt save the transcript) [05:30] tyler_d4, whats so bad about having 2 drives mirrored?

[05:34] Dizz: mac is based on bsd ---- ubuntu is debian based [05:34] im going to dl a game and it says that its not for mac OS . will it work ? [05:35] will it work for me? [05:35] dhikr: basically, you need to tell virtualbox wich usb devices you want to use on the virtual machine. By default, none of them is enabled [05:35] Dizz, simple answer is nope~ [05:35] Roasted: what you are doing is the perfect solution for literally 2 drives... if you had 3 it would be a different story. the answer is yes though... get a hardware raid card and a 3rd drive ;) [05:35] and the long answer is nope :p [05:36] !appdb | Dizz [05:36] Dizz: 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 [05:36] bodom okay i understand [05:36] tyler_d4, same question ,but is there a way to do that WITHIN linux itself?

[05:38] tyler_d4, so your final recommendation to me is either to get a 3rd drive to run software raid properly or get a hardware card [05:39] im not pirating it . i have it alredy from when i bought it when i had windows . i wanted to see if it would work on ubuntu . don assume [05:39] tyler_d4, a mdraid mirror has no problem tolerating a failed drive [05:39] bodom that it's okay ? The USB Proxy Service could not be started, because neither the USB file system (usbfs) nor the hardware information service (hal) is available. [05:39] Roasted: final recommendation, get a 3rd drive AND get a hardware card that handles 0,1,5.. then you don't have to worry about it. [05:39] Until now I had been writing my own fstab, but now I saw ntfs-config. What is it? [05:39] tyler_d4, yeah, I was just hoping on avoiding buying anything.

[05:40] apparle: ntfs-config lets you auto-mount ntfs partitions without having to mess with fstab or type your password every time [05:40] Roasted: then go play with mdadm, but back it ALL up somewhere first !

[05:51] venger: the proof is really the speed, and what is used most often with "ease of getting your data back" which unfortunatly is still hw raid!

[05:52] bodom i can't translate "i surrender" [05:52] tyler_d4, youre right - but I want redundancy to KEEP RUNNING. Its not about saving my OS for the sake of me not wanting to redo it.

[06:06] bodom it's okay for this operation [06:07] karthiksharu__ yes [06:07] i have two files, a certificate.pfx file and a .pdf file. the pdf wants a password to open. i have to enter the password in pfx file to open the pdf. how to run the pfx file in ubuntu? [06:07] wildbat_laptop: I have, from what I have read it is a problem with the xorg.conf settings, but I can't find the file [06:07] rsk: How do I see the version of Ubuntu I am using ? [06:08] ubottu: version | karthiksharu__ [06:08] karthiksharu__: To find out what version of Ubuntu you have, type « lsb_release -a » in a !shell - To know the available version of a package, « apt-cache policy » [06:08] ubottu: Wow.. thanks sir [06:08] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [06:08] Gowesty1990: xorg.conf doesn't come with ubuntu 9.10 -10.04 just use touch to make then put what you want in it..... [06:08] ubottu: Thanks [06:08] You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-) [06:09] karthiksharu__: you're welcome :) [06:09] bodom i have that http://pastebin.com/CPryuS97 [06:10] anyone? [06:10] dbum: I'm not sure what you are talking about [06:10] !anyone [06:10] A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? [06:11] Gowesty1990: that file is only used if needed..... If you have something to "add" you have to make the file (forgot what dir to make in) then it will use it if it's there [06:11] Is that snap feature from windows 7 available in ubuntu?? [06:11] theos: when you run the pdf doesn't it just ask for the password? [06:11] Gowesty1990: from what I've read.....never had to do it though [06:12] dbum: xorg.conf? /etc/X11/xorg.conf is the path [06:12] dhikr: sorry, dunno what to do now [06:12] Gowesty1990: yeah... just make a new file and add info [06:12] moetunes, yes it asks for the password. but the readme says the password is in the pfx. i know it doesnt make sense but this is what it says [06:13] dbum: ah ok, is there an example file I can use? because I don't know what all needs to be in it [06:13] pfx.... that is a certificate file..... [06:13] theos, may be you just cat the pdx out? [06:13] theos: try in terminal cat /path/to/certificate.pfx and read it [06:13] bwoah: Do you see the grub menu before it crashes? [06:13] ok thanks let me try :) [06:13] therefore the contents will not be readable by a human... [06:14] Gowesty1990: nothing has to be in it.... I know it sounds weird..... but that's kinda like the "extra settings" I've read it in a couple of places [06:14] bodom okay, i big thank for your help [06:14] dhikr: np, you are welcome [06:14] !who | aetaric [06:14] aetaric: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) [06:15] dbum: it has to have some kind of format to it though for it to work right? kind of like *.ini files in winblows [06:15] quick question, will there be a x64 version of the netbook remix? [06:15] StormMage: I don't think a 64-bit image is planned, no. [06:15] =/ [06:15] moetunes: thanks, but i'm quite aware of how this channel, and irc networks as a whole function. i was speaking to the only people talking at the current moment. [06:15] bodom thank [06:15] rww is there a package i can install over the x64 desktop to get the same features? [06:15] StormMage: you could probably install regular Ubuntu 64-bit and install the relevant packages (ubuntu-netbook, maybe?), but I haven't tried it. [06:16] StormMage: But I doubt that any of the packages are x86 only, so you should be able to set it up yourself. [06:16] !info ubuntu-netbook lucid [06:16] ubuntu-netbook (source: netbook-meta): The Ubuntu Netbook system. In component main, is optional. Version 2.024 (lucid), package size 32 kB, installed size 60 kB [06:16] aetaric: seems you could have been helping the op was my point mate :] [06:16] Gowesty1990: back in the day there was a xorg.conf .... now you have to create it........ and it will still be used.... let me see if I can pull up where I've read that..... I know I'm not going crazy.....I mean crazier [06:16] Hi, I'm trying to upgrade from 8.04 to 10.04 using the alternate CD, as per https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LucidUpgrades#Upgrading%20Using%20the%20Alternate%20CD/DVD It was going okay until I ran out of space on /. I fixed that problem but now when I run cdromupgrade again it tried to download everything over the network all of a sudden. Ideas? [06:16] mmm ill have to try it, my netbook/laptop (cheap toshiba satellite) has an x64 neo [06:16] StormMage, there is little incentive or advantage to go 64bit on a netbook, if even supported at all [06:17] hey, does anyone know how to make a broadcom crystal hd work with ubuntu? [06:17] well i wasn't quite sure [06:17] I don't know if there's some file somewhere that got changed while cdromupgrade was running that needs to get switched back or something. [06:17] dbum: I know what you are saying, problem is the file is not there, it does not exist in the etc/X11 folder [06:18] Gowesty1990: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1325212 [06:18] StormMage, try sudo tasksel, and there is a ubuntu netbook option~ [06:18] moetunes wildbat_laptop cat file.pfx gives some unreadable form [06:18] Gowesty1990: open terminal (if not already opened), type sudo touch /etc/X11/xorg.conf [06:19] theos: aetaric seemed to know that would happen - i don't know more sorry [06:19] i can't copy any files from my computer to a windows computer with RW permissions on the windows machines folder [06:19] bodom ? http://forum.ubuntu-fr.org/viewtopic.php?id=394975 === KenWeiLL_away is now known as KenWeiLL [06:19] wild ok ill play around later [06:20] StormMage, 64bit makes sense on a system with the storage capacity(size)and fast memory subsystems that make it worthwile or required, and/or benefit from the options 64bit mode provides. none of that applies to netbooks [06:20] now that i know where to look [06:20] i can copy but no paste option on the target === AndrewX192 is now known as and [06:20] moetunes, ok thanks for helping :) [06:20] Jordan_U: yes i do see the grub screen [06:20] theos, moetunes: the file is encrypted... add it to Applications > Accessories > Passwords and Encryption Keys [06:20] aetaric: ok, now what? === and is now known as AndrewX-Mobile [06:21] Gowesty1990: you can edit the file... type gksu gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf === AndrewX-Mobile is now known as AndrewX192 [06:21] aetaric, ok thanks let me try this too :) [06:22] ok, it's open, now what do I put in it? [06:22] anyone know how to get Lucid working with the TV out jack on a Mac Mini? I had it working in Hardy, then I wiped the box and reloaded with Lucid. [06:22] hehe [06:22] Gowesty1990: no clue. that depends on your setup..... i figured you knew already [06:22] I can see the Mac's boot splash and the rEFIt boot selector, so I know the connection is hooked up [06:22] when X11 loads, I just get a blank screen [06:23] xrandr says it's talking to the TV output [06:23] justdave: whats the video card in that thing anyway? [06:23] i tried to install frostwire from the .deb file [06:23] after it asks for my password it doesn't do anything [06:23] Dr_Willis: i945GM [06:24] the window just closes [06:24] vekin: Try doing sudo apt-get -f install [06:24] aetaric, do i have to convert the pfx file to some other format? i cant import pfx [06:24] flavio: to the .deb file? [06:24] justdave: could be theres been some changes to the drivers for that set. The forums might have some info [06:24] k [06:24] vekin: go in more details as to what you are doing/saying. what 'window' closes? [06:25] Dr_Willis: where would I look in the forums? been googling for an hour or so, maybe I'm not looking for the right thing [06:25] justdave: theres been some issues with some intel video chipsets in 10.04 [06:25] vekin: Try this, first do sudo dpkg -i frostwire.deb [06:25] ah [06:25] justdave: Theres normally some threads on intel video or subsections [06:25] vekin: There will be an error message, later do sudo apt-get -f install [06:26] not really ubuntu related....but new to IRC..... where is a good place to find out IRC commands... like changing rooms?? [06:26] ...google? [06:26] dbum: the docs for your client. also the xchat homepage has good docs. [06:26] vekin: apt will install the dependencies, later do sudo dpkg -i frostwire.deb again [06:26] thanx [06:26] Dr_Willis: I have a couple nVidia Minis at my disposal as well, maybe I need to swap them around. The other two TVs they're on have HDMI :) [06:26] aetaric: lol, there are some examples of things to change online but I doubt that is the complete file settings [06:26] figured I'd leave the older hardware on the older TV :) [06:27] Gowesty1990: it doesn't need a "complete file" what are you trying to change? [06:27] I can rember when the macmini was 'cool new hardware' :) === christian is now known as Guest49588 === Guest49588 is now known as noobie-doo [06:27] Dr_Willis: yeah, they still are, if you have a newer one. :) [06:28] !ot [06:28] #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions.

[06:44] where do i list of ubuntu mirror list ,i am using ubuntu on esxi with utm (firewall,av,ips,url filtering,mail spam and many other things) [06:44] Jordan_U: exactly [06:44] sporedi: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+archivemirrors [06:44] pvl1, after I enabled the swap I could see the hibernate choice in shutdown menu [06:44] I'm using 9.10, how can I change which users show up to choose from on the login screen? [06:44] i wonder if i can teach my IRC client to beep for my name only when it isn't accompanied by 50 other names [06:44] Damascene, doesnt exactly mean its going to hibernate. how much swap and how much ram? [06:44] Nub: tryin to follow..... that's what comes up when you type alacarte in terminal? What is the exact problem? you want items out of your wine menu? [06:44] Damascene swap space > RAM? [06:44] hey guys, i'm having a problem w/my empathy totally screwing up the MSN account, like i my contacts are there but i'm not really online [06:44] sporedi, you ubuntu mirror list for the iso?

When I try to use them I just get "Unable to find or load plugin" [06:45] spamming freenode [06:45] This is funnier. [06:45] BRILIANT! [06:45] Yesso: No, not really.

But this is offtopic, #ubuntu-offtopic if you want to know more. [06:46] fbracing02, load a partition manager, or see if u can mount ur windows partition [06:46] Yesso: No, I've just been asking people to move on from that since then.

[06:47] fag [06:47] pvl1, ya i know.. but i can't get online or see who's really online unless i do a full reboot [06:47] Nub: wine gets its menu items from some subdir in the users home I recall. that may be whats diffrent about the wine stuff [06:47] pvl1, do oyu have a link to point me in the right direction of doing that [06:47] Anyone know why update-manager would crash on a routine 9.04->9.10 update? [06:47] Yesso: watch your language [06:47] Damascene ya need swap larger than ram if ya want the hibernate option back/working [06:47] thx [06:47] Yesso: and be respectful [06:47] ok [06:47] dbum: yes, but the folders still remain in the menu...

[06:48] omar_, but what did u mean ur not really online? and havfe u tried running empathy via a terminal to see debug msgs? [06:48] Damascene a smal amount of machines do have issues going i and comig out but it seems its usually RAM deficiency [06:48] pvl1, it's weird, after an amount of time i don't know what, empathy screws up. all my accounts except MSn are set to offline [06:48] fbracing02, click places, and see if u have anything below computer [06:48] Nub: oh.... don't see .wine in /home/..... let me see if I can find where Dr_Willis is talkin about [06:49] pvl1, then some msn contacts show as online and it just gets stuck like this even if they aren't online or i'm not.. and no one can msg me [06:49] omar_, i gotcha. did u try a terminal run [06:49] do what? :) [06:49] running a dell inspiron 1521 how do I configure the sound buttons on the front? [06:49] pvl1, what should I look for in my logs? [06:50] wildbat_laptop: No error message yet. It's been sat unresponsive for several minuites. I've done this install may times before (resinstalls after i screw up!) and it's never had this issue fro this particular update.. [06:50] pvl1: i have 500gb "new volume" and when i open that it has folders named $recycle.bin recycler and system volume information [06:50] pvl1, if i completely kill empathy even when i start it up again my msn contacts are still there and i'm offline [06:50] Damascene, gimme a sec [06:50] pvl1, the only way it works is when i reboot [06:50] How can I load a kernel driver?

I would try reposting in here or checkin forums....... OK [06:51] perhaps it took away my permissions when i reverted the menu... [06:52] fbracing02: Can you pastebin the output of "sudo blkid"?

[06:54] omar_, and you should try the terminal method ot see if its giving u any debug msgs. also is it the latest ver? [06:54] pvl1, no not really don't have another msn account.. but i'm assuming i'm not based on the fact no one has complained about messaging me and me not replying [06:54] fbracing02: Ok, you have an ntfs partition which is a good sign. [06:54] Communication controller: Device 5372:6872 (rev 01),Subsystem: LSI Logic / Symbios Logic Device 0002 [06:54] pvl1, what's the terminal method? yes it's latest version [06:54] Damascene, check like debug, messages, kern.log for anything power related. or literally search error [06:54] Nub: Is there a way to get xchat to use gnome notifications like empathy? [06:54] pvl1, i actually did a full-removal and full install on it too and i get same problem [06:55] Damascene, go by time [06:55] fbracing02: Next time for multiple line pastes use paste.ubuntu.com.

[06:55] aetaric: I think I just hosed Ubuntu, doesn't want to boot now [06:55] pvl1, running it from terminal i don't get any debug messages it just runs... even if i run it with empathy -n i still see my MSN contacts appear instantly [06:56] jordan, i get nothing [06:56] fbracing02: If you click System then Administration then Disk Utility, you can find your hard drive on the left. Click it and it will show you how it is partitioned. If windows is still on there you should see an NTFS partition... [06:56] gizmobay: Have you tried using manufacturer drivers? [06:56] i was left on grub> help me [06:56] omar_, well u said that over time it occurs right? [06:56] CogitoErgoSam: maybe the python script (xchat-notify 0.1)? [06:56] ubuntu won't boot from my usb flash drive. it won't go past the purple screen with the dots [06:56] CogitoErgoSam: http://xchat.org/cgi-bin/search.pl?str=notification&cat=0&Submit=Search [06:56] CogitoErgoSam: i don't know. It was what i was familiar with so i installed it [06:57] pvl1, yeah it seems to work fine after a fresh boot then later on it'll just do this [06:57] didb't see any linux drivers on the disk [06:57] omar_, also, what -n do? sory i dont use empathy. not too much of a fan of it [06:57] dbum: Was just curious, I've been using empathy but wouldn't mind switchin to a dedicated irc client [06:57] omar_, let it run in a terminal till ti does that [06:57] pvl1, option to start without immediatly connecting [06:57] man gpg: "This is the standalone version of gpg.

[06:57] CogitoErgoSam: Xchat is way easier to follow than Empathy..... at least for this fast moving chat [06:57] gizmobay: From the manufacturers website? assuming they support linux [06:58] I'm trying to install ubuntu 10.04 into my comp. using a pendrive, I downloaded ubuntu10-04 iso file, and used prendrivelinux app to make a bootable pendrive and it worked, I used it to install ubuntu into a vaio laptop, but when I tried to do the same thing into my comp. it does not worked... =/ [06:58] appears [06:58] pvl1, i'm guessing there's a temp file that gets written somewhere it's reading the contacts from that gets overwritten upon boot [06:58] dbum: Thanks for the heads up. I think I'll give it a shot. [06:58] aetaric: xorg.conf [06:58] robertzaccour: press esc at that screen to see messages [06:58] CogitoErgoSam: no prob [06:58] just dropping by to let you all know that I finally got compiz working on intel 965 on my x61, for some reason i had to set it to 24 bit color, from the 16 bit I had before. Does that make sense? [06:58] n3kr0n, your computer supports usb boot?? [06:58] yeah [06:58] Hi , for some reason i cant install any .debs or packages it says i have another one open , i have restarted 3 times and still happening. What can i do? [06:58] om26er, yeah [06:58] omar_, aha u dont kill all of empathy just via a killall empathy. and im doubtful of that but its very much possinle [06:58] *possible [06:59] n3kr0n, what is the last thing you see when you boot from usb [06:59] musca, i did and it says error all the way down [06:59] pvl1, then how can i DESTROY it? [06:59] fbracing02: Try running "sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt". I am guessing that you will get an error. [06:59] jordan and nub: under disk utility it does show my ntfs partition, im worried though because i have 2 hardrives and bother were ntfs before BUT my second harddrive should be empty (the one i inteded linux to not be installed on) [06:59] Whats the easiest way to install stuff in Ubuntu Ex. Java Script? [06:59] nm [06:59] om26er, SYSLINUX.... no default or ui configuration directive found [06:59] Gowesty1990: do you see grub on boot? because plymouth, the pretty purple bootsplash, would be affected by the xorg.conf file [06:59] omar_, the file or empahty. [06:59] aetaric: stuck at Ubuntu loading screen [06:59] Sorry I ment Java not Java Script [06:59] pvl1, oh thought you were referring to a child process running [07:00] Gowesty1990: oh, or X11 won't start... ctrl+alt+F2 [07:00] omar_, child process [07:00] jordan, it did nothing [07:00] bushbaby, I'm having a hard time figuring out who's the manufacture. I assume LSI is the chipset [07:00] omar_, killall empathy mission-control telepathy-gabble telepathy-stream-engine [07:00] n3kr0n, you can make a live cd with ubuntu's own usb creator this time [07:00] hi there [07:00] i'm trying to install ubuntu from my flash drive but it won't go bast the purple screen with the dots [07:00] ohh [07:00] i have xp and ubuntu installed , now i need to reinstall ubuntu , so do i need to remove the grub by doing fixmbr ? [07:00] "mount failed device or rescource busy [07:00] pvl1, nope still didn't work [07:00] or shud i straight away overwrite ubuntu ? [07:01] gizmobay: does lspci give you any more info that you've already given? [07:01] aetaric: locked up, can't do anything [07:01] n3kr0n, copy the iso to the laptop where you installed ubuntu [07:01] has anyone complained about strange freezing in here lately? [07:01] aetaric: Plymouth runs before X is started. [07:01] happy2525 do it XD [07:01] n3kr0n, did you use unetbootin for making the usb? [07:01] robertzaccour: press F6 at the menue and disable lapic [07:01] om26er, no [07:01] Not really, is there a place I can lookup this number 5372:6872 [07:01] robertzaccour: and test media and memory [07:02] om26er, is it into ubuntu iso? [07:02] fbracing02: Believe it or not the fact that you get an error is actually a good sign. [07:02] I will look for [07:02] om26er, I will look for [07:02] hi , i recently installed lucid, but the sound recorder doesn't seem to be working , i ch [07:02] i checked with several microphones but not working [07:02] omar_, hold on ima download empathy so i can see its doc, gimme a sec [07:02] pvl1, okkok [07:03] n3kr0n, usb creator comes preinstalled with ubuntu [07:03] fbracing02: It means that update-grub may not be able to detect windows if it's on that partition, so while it won't add an entry for windows it may still be possible to boot windows. [07:03] pranay_09: are you using alsa ? [07:03] n3kr0n, System>adminitration>startup disk creator [07:03] jordan: im not os much worried bout booting windows i just relaly need osme ifles from that install [07:03] gizmobay: it seems LSI is the manufaturer of the card [ http://www.lsi.com ] [07:03] musca, lapic isn't there [07:03] rebooted, same result [07:03] karthiksharu__: yes [07:04] musca, oh nolapic [07:04] jordan_u: and apparently i need to learn how to type [07:04] join #pedantech [07:04] gizmobay: They could well be the chipset manufacturer too. I'd suggest looking for drivers on their site i guess.. [07:05] Does anyone have an idea why I get the following error message when trying to update things? dpkg: error processing autoscan (--configure): [07:05] musca, i still get the error with nolapic [07:05] subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1 [07:05] Errors were encountered while processing: [07:05] autoscan [07:05] E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) [07:05] IngeniousHax: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.

For desktop use you should consider using gpg2." What is a "desktop use"? [07:08] i've got a question how do i get divx running on lucid? [07:08] Dr_Willis, i downloaded the iso first and then i tried to download it with unetbootin [07:08] How can I disable the UBUNTU splash screen which conceals the kernel init? [07:08] ManDay, nosplash [07:08] kernel option? [07:08] ManDay: ^^ [07:08] hi there [07:08] ManDay, yup [07:08] karthiksharu__: it shows some graphical stuff with a headphone tab [07:08] ty [07:08] musca, what am i looking for in memtest? [07:08] ManDay: i chanve the 'splash' to be 'nosplash' its the same as just removeing 'splash' [07:08] Dr_Willis: HI [07:08] Manday: /etc/default/grub and add it, then run update-grub [07:08] ManDay: but with the new Plymouth - im niot sure it works the same as it used to on the older releases [07:08] i have xp and ubuntu installed , now i need to reinstall ubuntu , so do i need to first remove grup by doing fixmbr in windows or can i just overwrite ubuntu ? [07:08] ManDay: Use the 'nosplash' kernel boot parameter. [07:09] ManDay: Perhaps teh following -> echo FRAMEBUFFER=n >>/etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/splash [07:09] robertzaccour: memtest list errors in red colour [07:09] thanks i got it [07:09] pranay_09: ya .. Verify if your card name is there at the top [07:09] ManDay: reading a guide at --> http://www.ubuntugeek.com/quick-tipplymouth-themes-in-ubuntu-10-04-lucid-lynx.html right now. [07:09] musca, it doesn't list anything [07:09] what is grub.d ? did that come with lucid? [07:09] Dr_Willis: how do i get divx running on lucid? [07:09] happy565656, if you have no other ubuntu installation other then the one you are overwriting then just reinstalling and overwriting will also fix the mbr along with the reinstall === Preacher is now known as Nub [07:09] jordan_u: im going to log off and relogin under xchat so that i can follow the convo better so ill brb [07:09] ManDay: grub2 basics. yes. grub.d has the configs for grub in it [07:10] Manday: /etc/default/grub : line "GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet nosplash" [07:10] acicula: so that means a fresh grub will be installed with the windows xp entry ? [07:10] zipper: ive never had to do anythingsopecial for divx - I was thinking the default install could play them [07:10] robertzaccour: let it test at least 15 minutes [07:10] karthiksharu__: it has HDA INTEL as the card name ,and RealTech as the chip how do i verify it? [07:10] Dr_Willis, what happend to /boot/grub ? [07:10] Dr_Willis: because i m trying to play shows online but they don't work w/o divx playerrr.r..r. === Dreamglider is now known as OY1R [07:10] ManDay: with grub2 - you edit the proper configs. then rerun 'sudo update-grub' [07:10] happy565656, yes it should detect the windows xp installation even though the mbr is not set to boot windows xp [07:11] ManDay: you do Not directly edit the /boot/grub/grub.cfg file. [07:11] !grub2 [07:11] GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 [07:11] Dr_Willis, and why the heck would that be?!? [07:11] pranay_09: lspci | grep Audio device [07:11] pranay_09: lspci | grep 'Audio device' [07:11] ManDay: thats how it works. [07:11] fine [07:11] thanks , bye [07:11] ManDay, autogenerated use /etc/default/grub instead === \shade\ is now known as fn [07:11] musca, could it possibly be a bad flash drive? [07:11] i just looked into /boot/grub and there are like a million times. what in the world happend to grub?!? [07:11] ManDay: go alter /boot/grub/grub.cfg if you want.. it will get overwritten next time update-grub gets ran [07:12] D: [07:12] Has anyone had a chance to look at the error im receiving while attempting to load packages from console? http://paste.ubuntu.com/430398/ [07:12] ManDay: 'its grub2 now' [07:12] ManDay: because Debian and Ubuntu have a set of scripts that do it, so if you edit it directly your changes end up getting overwritten. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 for instructions on how it all works. [07:12] they should have left it "grub1" - that was working just fine for everyone [07:12] anyone know if there is an Ubuntu safe mode? [07:12] rww ok ill read that [07:12] ManDay: not up for debate.. even the GRUB guys have moved to grub2. [07:12] ManDay: with that logic we would still be using LILO. === fn is now known as \shade\ [07:13] robertzaccour: well, it is possible, but more likely a broken download [07:13] any1 can assist me i am not able to play some shows online because they need divx how do i get it? [07:13] ManDay: grub legacy's menu.lst was really two different config files in one, the parts of the file that weren't commented were read by grub at boot, the parts with one comment (#)were read by update-grub, and the parts with two comments (##) were really comments. With grub2 /boot/grub/grub.cfg is read by grub at boot, and /etc/default/grub is read by update-grub. [07:13] karthiksharu__: 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation N10/ICH 7 Family High Definition Audio Controller (rev 01) [07:13] Manday: To elaborate, by moving the OS to a format where such config files are generated automatically, it can adapt without input from the user to changes, rather than relying on explicitly declared settings that must be changed manually every time the environment changes [07:13] zipper: got a url to an example? [07:13] Dr_Willis: http://tvshack.net/movies/The_Spy_Next_Door__2010_/a:112580/ [07:13] musca, i first tried downloading it and using startup disc creator, then that didn't work so i deleted the download and had unetbootin download and mount it for me, and same issue [07:14] CogitoErgoSam, im sure its a bit more then just a change to the way configurations are set? [07:14] man gpg: "This is the standalone version of gpg. For desktop use you should consider using gpg2." What is a "desktop use"? [07:14] zipper: at the top of the video -> it seems they are using a SPECIAL player/plugin -> Note: DivX Web Player is needed to watch this. Get it for Windows and Mac.

[07:15] jordan_u: Any ideas on how to retrieve files form that partition [07:15] zipper: only extra things i got installed here would be the ubuntu-restricted-extras and the w32codecs [07:16] at startup i tried to get into grub boot menu - i couldnt! [07:16] pranay_09: Applications--> Preferences-->Sound [07:16] apt-show-versions shows lots of karmic packages still installed after an upgrade to lucid. in dpkg --get-selections there are a few things that say deinstall. aptitude and apt-get upgrades arne't doing anything [07:16] ManDay, press and hold shift [07:16] acicula, ah, ok [07:16] robertzaccour: well - maybe unetbootin failed? i didn't try it with lucid [07:16] bullgard4: There are two similar versions of gnupg. Ubuntu installs regular gpg by default. There is also gpg2. They're mostly the same, and I'd personally recommend just ignoring that note. [07:16] Dr_Willis: how do u get the w32codecs? [07:16] right shift [07:16] why wouldn't those be getting removed? [07:16] its shifty that grub [07:16] zipper: it may also be due to me using the VLC plugin in firefox. the video gave me a 'right click->open in vlc' item. So i dont even need the browser. :) [07:16] zipper: its at medibuntu [07:16] karthiksharu__: ya then?

Can anyone experienced with grub or initramfs help? [07:17] Whats the easiest way to install stuff on Ubuntu? [07:18] apt-get [07:18] apt-get? [07:18] or synaptic I suppose [07:18] Dr_Willis: when i do the right click i can only open it with movie player but i have vlc installed already [07:18] if you like clickyclicky [07:18] sudo apt-get for root stuff [07:18] srsly: Depends; you're looking at it from the perspective of desktop applications. But how about embedded devices? Theming can maintain a consistency that would be really glaring otherwise [07:18] Nitro, package manager or synaptic. i prefer aptitude [07:18] Hey everyone, I have a big problem, I accidently deleted csrss.exe on my windows XP partition through linux and now Windows Wont boot up [07:18] karthiksharu__: no it is not muted , it is umamplified 100% [07:18] ManDay: It can also do neat stuff like support LVM and RAID out of the box. [07:18] Is there a way I can redownload csrss.exe or recover the file I deleted [07:18] Nitro, menu applications. ubuntu software center [07:18] xpike: ##windows [07:18] xpike: Try redoing your MBR [07:18] xpike, have u found the file online? and why u delete. and when [07:19] zipper: you got the browser set to use movie player , i got mine set to use vlc [07:19] xpike: Windows support is still in ##windows, try there. [07:19] fbracing02: Often the reason that a windows partition is unmountable is that chkdsk needs to be run, the easiest way to get chkdsk to run is to just boot windows. You can either create a manual menu entry to boot windows or use super grub2 disk which should allow you to boot windows (once the problem with mounting the windows partition is fixed update-grub will be able to detect windows and add a menu entry for it automatically) [07:19] Im new to irc, how do I get to ##windows?

[07:19] /join ##windows [07:19] Dr_Willis: how i do that again =.=" [07:19] xpike: try /join #windows [07:19] xpike, do /join ##windows [07:19] ok thanks [07:19] zipper: do what again? [07:20] Dr_Willis: get the browser set to use vlc [07:20] pranay_09: Does audio work ?? [07:20] rww: I am willing to abide by your recommendation. Still, what is meant by a "desktop use"? [07:20] karthiksharu__: yes i have a stereo connected and the headphone also works [07:20] zipper: install --> mozilla-plugin-vlc - multimedia plugin for web browsers based on VLC [07:20] headphone also works ?? [07:21] If I upgrade my Jaunty Ubuntu am I going to end up losing my added repo's? [07:21] jpds, fine, but raid really doesnt require theming and scripting. if they are already bloating the bootloader i dont wanna know how far it gets... [07:21] hi [07:21] jordan_u: Thank you for the help i will try the super grub dic [07:21] IngeniousHax: The update tool will disable them, yes. You can re-enable them from Software Sources after the upgrade, I believe. [07:21] no one is in ##windows it seems [07:21] or they are sleeping lol [07:21] fbracing02: You're welcome.

I imagine that's what they mean. [07:22] lol how do I message :O [07:22] 2 routers [07:22] bullgard4: I added repos based on ubuntu, but not directly built by such.

[07:24] mmm, whats wif wifi, the 2 modems? whered u get a wifi tv ip modem [07:24] ManDay: In grub2 features are separated into modules, so if you don't want to use theming (or raid, or LVM, or internationalization support, or support for the blind) then that module simply won't be used. [07:24] apparle: not really. tried it.. found it more trouble then it was worth for me. [07:24] pranay_09: That implies no problem with ubuntu . correct ??

[07:39] mmm, the one except i can think off is a crossover cable. but i think ud have to configure the second's settings to not work as a dhcp server [07:39] IngeniousHax: you might have better luck on #backtrack-linux [07:39] mmm, meaning making it function as a switch, or you could probs just leave it [07:40] karthiksharu__: i selected Audio Stereo Input, not working still , should i diconnect the woofer and the sound system?

[07:43] IngeniousHax: Enjoy ubuntu! [07:43] How do I go about avoiding a bad ISO? [07:43] Tristan, of ubuntu? [07:43] Yes, the LiveCD [07:43] Tristan download, check the md5sum, burn, let the disc check itself [07:43] Tristan, ^ [07:43] Tristan: i tend to use the torrents. they seem to double check better.. and then check the sums. [07:43] karthiksharu__: ?? [07:43] or use bittorrent wich sort of does check that also [07:43] Thanks Loshki [07:44] I'm unaware of the meaning of md5sum. [07:44] !md5sum [07:44] To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows [07:44] bullgard4: Always do.

[07:45] n3kr0n, this is a known bug [07:45] Hey there. What package is /usr/lib/libGL.so in? (or /usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2) [07:45] and do it in such a way that its unlikely you ever get the same number, which doesnt hold true for md5 but its sufficient to check iso's with [07:45] PercyLucid: I've used 'grip' in the past to converd a CD to mp3.... [07:45] anybody help me to make /sda7 bootable for ubuntu? paste2.org/p/819184 [07:45] PercyLucid: yes. cdparanoia paired up with lame, is what I use === jay is now known as Guest23527 [07:45] Alt + Tabbed while I do that. [07:46] I still cant figure out how you calculate the md5sum for an ISO file.. THEN put the md5sum on the iso... seems like that would change the sum....

[07:46] om26er, alright [07:47] Never needed this in the past, in a week is my 7th aniversary with native Ubuntu installation [07:47] wine free [07:47] PercyLucid: don't know about converter programs.... but just installed ifuse to connect iPod touch to ubuntu and works like a charm....don't know if that helps any === zy3g0 is now known as SOoOS [07:48] Dr_Willis: You don't, you include the md5sums of all of the files (except the md5sum file of course) [07:48] Well I checksum'd it, and it corresponds with the desktop i386. [07:48] Dr_Willis: That's why the integrity check can tell you what files are corrupt. [07:48] Jordan_U: so its not checking the ISO file via the check disk option..its checking all the fules in the iso. :) [07:48] how to make my desktop under ubuntu to behave like slide show? [07:48] that makes more sence then. [07:48] My computer doesn't recognize the disk when I boot, and the last one (9.8 I think) didn't work--it was recognized, but it just didn't work properly. [07:48] Dr_Willis: Yes [07:49] gigasoft: theres wallpaper changer programs in the repos and avail elsewhere. [07:49] Tristan: What do you mean by "doesn't recognize"? Do you have more than one hard drive in the computer? [07:49] .. yes i know, but i have only a few pictures, i want to add more, so where is that dir .. [07:49] CogitoErgoSam: my email r in a pdf file. Can u help with th e command to extract email? [07:49] It ignores the fact that there is a cd in the drive. I have a single hard drive, and a single CD drive. (Sata1 is CD, Sata4 is HDD) [07:50] It skips over the "press any key to boot from CD" option [07:50] bullgard4: http://paste2.org/p/819184 [07:50] Tristan: Have you check the boot order? [07:50] gigasoft: add pictures? they wont be auto added to the slide show feature of the default gnome wallpapers without you altering the xml files for teh feature [07:50] Yes [07:50] researcher1: I have no idea if you can pull it out of a PDF...most pdf's don't store text data, they're storing it as a kind of flattened image [07:50] It recognizes my W7 boot disk, but not my linux 10.04 disk. [07:51] (And out of pure curiosity..Is it disc or disk?) [07:51] gigasoft: http://www.webupd8.org/2009/12/script-to-generate-xml-wallpaper-file.html [07:51] I have a weird problem: (On a fresh Karmic install:) I need to move around the mouse, otherwise the screen stops updating after about 15 sec (and starts updating again when I move the mouse). I've seen the clock in the corner jump three minutes at once when I touch the mouse... [07:51] (Don't even know what to google for) [07:51] But yeah, I went into BIOS and it attempts to boot from CD drive before HDD. [07:51] Tristan: Interesting, does the disk boot in any other machine? Do you know the differnece between burning a CD with an iso file on it and burnging a CD from an iso image? [07:51] pranay_09: Sorry I didnt see your chat .. try installing pavucontrol [07:52] How can I make ubuntu partion bigger? I have made vista smaller.

[07:52] gigasoft: i find it easier to just use a wallpaper changer app. [07:52] researcher1: If you can export the emails in a different format, like an excel file or a csv, it would be trivial to find names [07:52] I know the difference, but I'm no longer sure the program does what I need it to do. [07:52] chilli0: You will need to boot a live cd to change the size of the ubuntu parittions [07:53] Dr_Willis, I am running a live cd. [07:53] pranay_09: Sorry I didnt see your chat .. try installing pavucontrol [07:53] Its just called unallocated atm. But its not inside my sda3 . [07:53] Tristan: Follow this guide with infra recorder that is known to work: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto [07:53] chilli0: install/use gparted. it should let you resize it. There may be some quirks if one parittion is a primary and youneed tomove space from it to a extended/logical [07:54] Tristan: sounds like a bad disc......I mean disk....ha..... boot from CD option with win7 comes from off the disc...so it sounds like it's reading that disk...he [07:54] chilli0: you may need to resize it in steps. I normally just use all primaries [07:54] ok well heres what ive done. Made windows vista smaller , but havent accepted yet. [07:54] should i accept it? [07:54] Yeah, that was the initial question dburn: avoidance of a bad disc/disk. [07:55] !md5sum [07:55] To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows [07:55] Also, i386 vs amd64? I'm running an AMD athlon x4 [07:55] yeah, I got that [07:55] That was the first thing I was told to do lol [07:55] haha [07:56] Tristan: the first iso I downloaded (from ubuntu website) was only 250Mb...... obviously that didn't work out for me [07:56] any work around for the hibernate bug? [07:56] Hehe, yeah [07:57] Damascene, your netbook dont hibernate? [07:57] yes [07:58] it does but it never resume probably [07:58] it goes like normal boot. it seems there is a bug reports about that but I need a work around if possible please [07:58] just a note that my swap is half the ram 1G [07:59] om26er, looks like now its gona load [07:59] but I don't think I'm using all the 2 [07:59] om26er, loaded \o/ [07:59] 2G ram [07:59] hey guys, periodically when I'm using 10.04 on my laptop, Gnome will just crash and I'll get a "check battery" error message; and have to hard restart; my laptop is plugged in when this occurs, how do I squash this bug? [07:59] How can I get ubuntu bigger? [07:59] I have unallocated space. But its not in my dev3 [07:59] I really need help please. [07:59] n3kr0n, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/usb-creator/+bug/492301 [08:00] chilli0: What do you mean bigger? [08:00] chilli0: I would boot the live cd and use gparted for that [08:00] chilli0: you have allready resized the windows partition? [08:00] Oh, nvm... [08:00] I have made windows smaller yes. I have 7.26 gig of unallocated space. [08:00] chilli0: that was quick. You did hit 'apply' in gparted? soit actually did the real work? [08:00] The table looks like this, /dev/sda1 [08:00] unallocated [08:00] then /dev/sda3 [08:01] and inside that is all ubuntu stuff [08:01] But ubuntu says its at its max size. ( 32gig [08:01] chilli0:Dont ruin your bootloader like I did on windows... had to redo my MBr for windows to get the longhorn loader to work, than had a bunch of linux space I couldn't use [08:01] .... [08:01] hi! can anyone help me please? how can i do this via console? http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Lucid#Screen_Keeps_Flickering [08:01] Ive already accepted the changes. [08:01] chilli0: you should be able to resize sda3 to use the unallocated space. UNLESS its in a extended/logical parittion. Perhaps pastebin the output of 'sudo fdisk -l' [08:02] Its extended [08:02] chilli0: thats proberly the issue then. You need to somehow resize sda3 , THEN resize the sda5 thats in sda3 (i thinki got that right) [08:02] this is one of the reasons i always use primaries [08:02] Alright, disc finished burning. Going to checksum it, and then reboot and see how that goes. [08:02] I really hope this doesn't screw up ... [08:02] I have heaps of uni finals on it. [08:03] can i tell ubuntu where to install a software? [08:03] Also, I have a bad 9.8 on my HDD. How do I eliminate this and give free space to my new install? [08:03] chilli0: you could format it as ext4 and mount it in /media/filename and use it from there [08:03] (Btw, 400gb to windows7, 65gb to linux) [08:03] http://pastebin.com/cwHd8P3D [08:03] chilli0: this is why one makes backups.. befor doing this stuff.

[08:06] if he can't resize a partition, not sure he should be trying to apply encryption... [08:06] chilli0: part of the issue may be the 'Partition table entries are not in disk order' message [08:06] How does one checksum a CD on windows?

[08:07] ok guys, so i really want to make this evolution work with my gmail account. what can i do? please i need help. it's a fresh install, never fiddled about with iptables nor ufw nor anything simmilar. what the freaking problem may be? [08:07] !google | ejv [08:07] ejv: While Google is useful for helpers, many newer users don't have the google-fu yet. Please don't tell people to "google it" when they ask a question. [08:07] I'm going to copy each file now. So thats gonna take 2h luls =S [08:07] so afkishlessness. [08:07] Tristan err you are trying to calculate an md5sum of an iso? [08:07] you install a md5 tool on windows that puts a 'check md5sum' entry on the context menus. [08:08] Not the iso anymore, the actual CD. [08:08] google-fu.....ha [08:08] Oh god, not this again. I did that ten minutes ago, Dr Willis [08:08] that's up to your burner software; use their "verify" feature [08:08] And Dr_Willis the problemb/ why i couldned resise the main part was because the swap was in use [08:08] omgawd 5h remaining... for 30gig.. [08:08] most all burning apps support some form of "verify" [08:08] chilli0: yea the live cd may try to auto-use the swap. [08:08] most if not all* [08:08] chilli0: i alwyas turn off the swap befor i do that sort of stuff [08:08] chilli0, get a faster disk/internet or less data :D [08:09] its going at 1mb per sec. [08:09] can i assign what hard drive to use when installing something? [08:09] fail =[ [08:09] Tristan: you can md5sum an actual device under linux.. Not sure about windows. [08:09] anyone aroudn here use NX with ubuntu? [08:09] ljsoftnet: clarify what you mean [08:09] sagarp: sure [08:09] Tristam, if you burned the cd you can just boot it and let it check itself [08:09] Alright. How do I clear my last (bad) install of ubuntu so I can put in 10.04, then? [08:10] ejv: i have it working, but i want to know if there's a way to use the same dispaly that's up on the machine [08:10] Tristan: clear? just install over it.. or delete the parittions [08:10] sagarp: yeah with freenx [08:10] Alright. [08:10] i mean when i install something, can i tell ubuntu to install in this drive, because the system drive, has low disk space [08:10] Tristan, during partitioning select manual and elect format of the disk and set the mount point. [08:10] !freenx [08:10] FreeNX is advanced remote desktop technology. For more information and install instructions, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeNX [08:10] ljsoftnet: simple answer.. you dont.. [08:10] that's up to your burner software; use their "verify" feature [08:10] I'm used to Windows' filing system. [08:10] woops [08:10] Any experienced wine user here? I have a question- tried #winehq but no one is on :) [08:10] Tristan, err format of the partition [08:10] Alright, I'll be back. Thanks. [08:10] not the disk as a whole obviousl [08:10] MikeChelen: i am using freenx...but i can't get it working with sharing the screen [08:11] laptop owners: periodically when I'm using 10.04 on my laptop, Gnome will just crash and I'll get a "check battery" error message; and have to hard restart; my laptop is plugged in when this occurs, how do I squash this bug? [08:11] boys could anybody help me troubleshoot the problem with my evolution mail account with gmail? [08:11] (And yes, I've backed up my hard drive.) [08:11] @Dr_Willis ah ok [08:11] ljsoftnet: more complex answer. Move stuff like /home to a new partition/filesystem to have space on / [08:11] sagarp: is it supposed to share the screen? thought each user has a private session [08:11] obiwan_, Shure, post your question. [08:11] ljsoftnet: moving /tmp or /var/ can work also i belive. Dont move /etc/ :) === angus is now known as casper3 [08:12] MikeChelen: well that is how i have it working now...i was wondering if anyone has gotten sharing to work, because i have read about people who do it, but their methods dont' work for me [08:12] gentookitty: good to know a gentoo kitty , so qt :) . problem is it won't talk to the server it says it couldn't. i tried with pop either and didn't work [08:13] I can't get any sound while playing video with VLC player, how can I fix it? [08:13] casper3: just with vlc ? [08:13] casper3: check the sound out devices in its settings. be sure its set to use pulse perhaps [08:13] morning. Does anybody in here know a music player that can handle big libraries (apart from Rhythmbox)? It seems that Banshee is hanging regularly with a 20 GB-library of music-files [08:13] just VLC [08:13] obiwan_, So let's get back to the start line- I'm not an experienced user but I will try my best to help you. Did you enabled your gmail account to be able to use pop/imap? [08:13] Dragon player is ok [08:13] can__: and the issue is? [08:13] obiwan_, did you activate pop or imap in gmail? [08:14] casper3: have you tried playing another thing while vlc plays? just to make sure it isn't a problem with the base sound but some channels [08:14] obiwan_, You go to Settings>Forwarding and pop/imap. [08:14] no, just running vlc... [08:14] yeah gentookitty , i used evolution with jaunty, and worked. then upgraded to lucid and stoped working [08:15] Hi [08:15] hi w0nisahc_ [08:15] obiwan_, So by this answer I understand that you did that already, yes?

I am using samba on Ubuntu Lucid and having trouble using samba on multiple interfaces. On one interface it works like a charm while on the other it gives read error on everyfile. I was not having this problem in Ubuntu Karmic. Kindly help. [08:16] can__: chat in here. not in private messages. [08:16] can__: ive no idea on the randr stuff. [08:16] Dr_Willis: thanks :( [08:16] obiwan_, Maybe that link would help you. Try deleting your account from evolution then configure it again. [08:16] * Sava` hello~ [08:16] gentookitty: do you know if they changed some policy respecting ports or something from karmic to lucid? [08:17] obiwan_, just a second, I will try to see know if my evolution works. [08:17] obiwan_, I don't think they would do such a thing, they are not Yahoo:) [08:17] ok gentookitty , another guy yesterday tried it and he said it works. so it's my problem i bet [08:17] obiwan_, One second to see if my evolution works with gmail. [08:17] hahaha gentookitty ^_^ [08:18] gentookitty: do you say that because the last minute yahoo to google switch in lucid? i don't know anything bout that. it was a surprise to see good ol google in lucid too hehe [08:18] Can I play rmvb files in dragon player?

[08:21] same version , and doesn't here :( [08:21] i think it didn't work well [08:21] obiwan_, Have you tried deleting the account and trying again? [08:21] yeah i guess i'll try that [08:21] sometimes some files get stuck [08:21] How can I play rmvb files in dragon player? [08:22] obiwan_, Try that know and see if it works. Please be attentive when you write your password and all the things in evolution. You could have done a typo and that's why it can sometimes not work. [08:22] obiwan_, Also when not working, what errors, messages do you get? [08:23] Buffer I/O error on device fd0, logical block 0 should i be worried about that if theres no floppy drive in the pc?

Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto - See !grub2 for Karmic onwards.

For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 [09:13] aprilhare: how please explain [09:14] ravenkhan, grub handles boot. if boot file is stuffed, then boot will be stuffed. [09:14] mneptok: thanks [09:14] someone else wanna explain further? have to go :) [09:14] mneptok: how do i see kubuntu version ? [09:14] dbum: hmm, is there perhaps a more specialised ubuntu-subchannel that deals with this sort of stuff i can ask in? [09:14] whats the command to restore the default menus? [09:15] karthiksharu__: same command [09:15] hahahha [09:16] lingm: probably, im new to irc [09:16] mneptok: should I login to kubuntu and check the version ? coz yesterday I upgraded from 9.10 to 10.04... Kubuntu will also been upgraded ?? [09:16] How can I disable ubuntu's auto-hdd check? [09:16] hi all, can anyone point me the way of making lucid, automatically do a dhclient on boot? [09:16] karthiksharu__: yes [09:17] overmind I wish I knew [09:17] sorry guys my laptop crashed [09:18] mneptok: okay .. There is no difference between 9.10 and 10.04 kubuntu :-(... Can you advice how do I connect to wifii in kubuntu .. I know that knetwork manager is not able to connect to wifii [09:18] ForgeAus: I don't like it, because I prefer do it manually when I want [09:18] You can use the tune2fs command to set the # of reboots/mounts between checks on a per filesystem basis [09:18] ubott: okay .. There is no difference between 9.10 and 10.04 kubuntu :-(... Can you advice how do I connect to wifii in kubuntu .. I know that knetwork manager is not able to connect to wifii [09:18] karthiksharu__: ask in #kubuntu? i don't use KDE. [09:18] severnaya, I have problems compiling wpa_supplicant. [09:18] still having problems with ralink rt3070usb wifi dongle anybody able to give 1-2-1 help?? [09:18] mneptok: Okay thanks sir .. [09:18] Dr_Willis: can you turn it off completely? [09:18] It says that openssl dirs cannot be found, but openssl is installed on my system. [09:19] ForgeAus: proberly can.. but that would be a stupid thing to do [09:19] Dr_Willis: why? [09:19] ForgeAus: little thing called 'data loss' [09:19] can anyone point me the way to auto dhclient on 10.04? changing interfaces doesn't work and I have to manually do a dhclient on reboot [09:19] Dr_Willis: that suggests te file system is unstable [09:19] its your data.. go ahead and risk it [09:19] ForgeAus: theres a reason they check it every so many boots.... [09:19] (if it requires checking when you reboot it ever n days/weeks) [09:19] Running 64bit Lucid, I'm getting the message 'Kernel panic - not syncing : VFS: unable to mount root fs on unknown-block (9,0)' upon boot .... more information here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=9265830 [09:19] ForgeAus: and ttheres things called power failures also. [09:20] Dr_Willis: Well, I usually do backups to another hdd and to pendrive, that's the reason of why I want to disable it [09:20] hiiiiii [09:20] ForgeAus: its better to be safe then sory [09:20] a check of my 1TB hd here takes like 3 min last i watched it... [09:20] HAHAHHAHAHA [09:20] wheer is ourrr [09:20] Dr_Willis: yes well power failure on any system you may expect some problems with [09:20] bot [09:20] Antrax: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [09:20] why he is not talking === ubuntu_is_god is now known as w3l54666 [09:21] sorry bot [09:21] Dr_Willis: all I'm trying to say is a user wants to USE their computer, not have to wait for disk scans, etc before it boots up [09:21] Antrax: do you have a support question? thus far all i have seen you do is say "hiiiiii" and laugh at people. [09:22] can anyone point me the way to auto dhclient on 10.04? changing interfaces doesn't work and I have to manually do a dhclient on reboot [09:22] nop [09:22] ForgeAus: a user also wants to be SURE their data is correct. [09:22] those things should be transparent in the background AFTER they're in a Desktop environment, unless some kinda failure prompts it... [09:22] Antrax: OK, well stop the random "hahahahahaha" at people, mmmmkay? [09:22] ForgeAus: i rarely even notice the checks.. and when i do see them. theya re not that long. [09:22] Dr_Willis: Did you read what I said? [09:22] i have a question regarding my wifi dongle and getting it installed to work [09:22] overmind: its your data.. do what you want. [09:22] why dude [09:22] some info on tune2fs -> http://www.snow.nl/dist/xhtmlc/ch03s02.html [09:22] Dr_Willis: I've had them scan the entire disk many times [09:23] (but that was a multi-boot installation) [09:23] ForgeAus: sounds like a sign of a bigger hd issue then. or a bug we had in beta [09:23] Antrax: it's unhelpful and contributes nothing. [09:23] Antrax: not to mention somewhat rude. [09:23] anyone can help with dhcp on boot please? [09:23] Dr_Willis: no... I'm not sure exactly, was something Linux didn't like about one of the partitions, required it to scan each boot... which wasted my time... [09:24] * Dr_Willis wonders when someone will ask about the 5% reserved :) thats a bigger issue for me.. and also changeable with the tune2fs command [09:24] not a bug nor a fault, just a quirk linux didn't like about it [09:24] no man [09:24] its ok [09:24] dont worry [09:24] ForgeAus: there was a bug in one of the betas where the timestamp got set wrong. so it always saw the last 'check' date as being 23 hrs ahead of the current date. that made it always check on boot.. [09:25] sounds like a bug to me. [09:25] Dr_Willis: I had something like that way back with Edgy, it noticed stuff like that sometimes [09:25] can anyone point me the way to auto dhclient on 10.04? changing etc/network/interfaces doesn't work and I have to manually do a dhclient on reboot [09:25] I think this one is more about it mentioning some copy of the boot sector not matching or something like that.. [09:26] with the Journeling filesystems - its even more critical (i hear) to do checks every so often. [09:26] For anyone still interested in my problem: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=9265632 [09:26] is qemu and kvm the same thing? [09:26] cloversg: dirty way.. add the command to /etc/rc.local [09:26] also every time I leave it for more than a week or two it does a full disk scan... [09:26] cloversg: or clever way. :) [09:26] ForgeAus: it checks based on date, and/or the # of mounts. [09:26] zhxk no... but one may use the other... forgot which [09:26] both #'s are tuneable. [09:27] http://www.unixtutorial.org/commands/tune2fs/ [09:27] hello [09:27] Dr Willis - changing from System>Admin doesn't work, neither does network/interfaces, tempted with rc.local but looking for ifup which I can't find [09:27] Hi. Suppose I have a file /path/to/file, how do I know which package owns it? [09:27] Dr_Willis: cah you turn journalling off? (I don't like it anyway) [09:27] oh hi!, periodically when I'm using 10.04 on my laptop, Gnome will just crash and I'll get a "check battery" error message; and have to hard restart; my laptop is plugged in when this occurs, how do I squash this bug? [09:27] ForgeAus: use ext2 then. [09:27] why ubuntu boosts so swift? [09:27] had to switch to pc for irc as laptop keeps freezing :S [09:27] so sorry if im repeating myself [09:27] what journalling is the only thing EXT3 has thta EXT2 doesn't? [09:28] (I knw it was a major feature but I didn't know it was the only one) [09:28] ForgeAus: basically.. may be a few other things also.. but not much more [09:28] 'dpkg -S', sorry for the obvious question, failed to see that. [09:28] what about ext4 unjournaled? [09:28] ext3 without the journel is ext2 [09:28] (EXT4 has featres EXT2 doesn't right?) [09:28] ext4 is much more diffrent and has a lot more 'features' not in ext2/3 [09:28] <<%C6>> [09:28] How can you update wine to the latest version? I'm having problems with the one on ubuntu software center. [09:29] gentookitty: use the wine ppa repos or repos from winehq [09:29] but using EXT4 you can'tturn off journalling? [09:29] gentookitty: what kind of problems? [09:29] The ext4 or fourth extended filesystem is a journaling file system for Linux, developed as the successor to ext3. [09:29] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ext4 [09:29] Antrax: please stop the random input. this is the last time i ask. [09:29] Dr_Willis, Ohh, i don't really understand that, I'm a beginner. [09:29] Dr_Willis: hehe I knewthat much [09:30] ForgeAus, I want to play Perfect world...I downloaded it, installed it but the update.exe crashes.. [09:30] ForgeAus, Wow crashes aswell ...

(i want to have it when a user logs on, it starts vmware-player then disables the rest of the ui and commands) is this possible? [11:00] Dr_Willis: i cant get my usb wifi dongle sorted in lucid... n e ideas? [11:00] sh0ne: but its also removing some VERY imporntant things.. so i wouldent let it remove them --> ubuntu-desktop xorg xserver-xorg xserver-xorg-core xserver-xorg-input-all [11:01] w3l54666: ive never owned a usb-wifi thang.

[11:01] w3l54666: find its exact name/brand - check forums is about all i can suggest [11:01] I keep seeing this HDD icon in on my top panel with a big green down arrow on top of it, but it only appears briefly. Can anyone explain what this could be? [11:01] anyone? [11:02] Dr_Willis: ok buddy np man ill get on the rampage asap :P [11:02] how do I install Skype? I cannot find it in Applications->Ubuntu Software Center [11:02] It's so fast I don't have time to right click on it. [11:02] dwntwn_: I think that's ubuntu one syncing [11:02] denny, what?! [11:03] !ubuntuone [11:03] denny, I never set up ubuntu one [11:03] Ubuntu One is a service where you can back up, store, sync and share your data with other Ubuntu One users - For more see https://one.ubuntu.com/ support and help available at #ubuntuone [11:03] !memenu [11:03] !firefox [11:03] firefox is the default web-browser on Ubuntu.

[11:06] lol [11:06] ok...I have a problem [11:06] when I first installed ubuntu, my dns was slow [11:06] I found a solution on the internet [11:06] hi [11:07] http://packages.ubuntu.com/lucid/i386/libm17n-0/download [11:07] kicking out some ipv6 thing from alias file [11:07] how do i install this package using apt-get ? [11:07] but now I upgraded [11:07] from the command line [11:07] and it's slow again [11:07] how do I fix that? [11:07] liminal: sudo apt-get install libm17n [11:07] I think [11:07] Dr_Willis, where is autorun command? [11:07] it's libm17n-0 [11:07] how do I get the volume applet (for controlling sound volume etc) back after upgrade to lucid? [11:08] dwntwn_: system menu has an icon for it somewhere [11:08] and libm17n-0-dbg and libm17n-dev [11:08] yorick: have a look in /etc/hosts and /etc/resolv.conf [11:08] *** glibc detected *** mkdir: munmap_chunk(): invalid pointer: 0x0809f1f0 *** [11:08] *** glibc detected *** mkdir: malloc(): memory corruption: 0x0809f028 *** [11:08] see if either of those looks like what you fixed before [11:08] Trewas: run gnome-volume-control [11:08] ugh... wow. [11:09] my resolv.conf keeps resetting to some shitty internal resolver instead of my ISP's DNS servers, never have worked out how to stop that :) [11:09] denny: check /etc/dhclient/dhclient.conf [11:09] prepend domain-name-server [11:09] denny: I think I used /etc/modprobe.d/aliases === Radio-l is now known as Radio-a [11:09] can you please tell me which is simple mail server comes with ubuntu ,for soho office [11:09] Dr_Willis: that brings up the applet, but not the icon in the notification area (which I find useful to e.g. change whether firefox/flash is muted or not) [11:10] hey guys, I'm running a Lucid Lynx on a Notebook, it has a built in cellular modem with a sim card, but no matter what i try to configure in the network connections, i can't seem to be able to connect via the sim card (wifi and lan works perfect) [11:10] Trewas: Hmm. it adds an icon to the panel here.. [11:10] 10.4 rocks and beats the last ubuntu [11:10] yee harrrr [11:10] hi all ! [11:10] OK thanks! [11:10] yop [11:10] I'm having problem installing lucid on my hdd its says cannot create partition : device or resource busy [11:11] the partition is unmounted [11:12] Trewas: theres some chat about that icon/applet and the one thats merged with the mail icon here --> http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2010/03/how-to-remove-social-network-features.html [11:12] can someone help with Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. E220 HSDPA Modem / E270 HSDPA/HSUPA Modem [11:12] help neone? [11:12] no one knows his way around the built in cellular modem ? [11:13] babai, did you try unmounting it first? [11:13] Weazel: what brand notebook? [11:13] i can not get conection sometimes [11:13] if it's HP, check that "rfkill list" shows the wwan interface alive, not killed. [11:13] Dr_Willis: ok, running gnome-volume-control-applet brings it back, thanks [11:13] SSShvb: are you having problems connecting using a built-in cellular modem ? [11:13] wesguin: ya, i never mounted it in the first place [11:13] Same is true of many other brands, by the way. [11:13] Trewas: aha its gnome-volume-control-applet - I misspasted [11:13] babai, what are you using for the partition utility? [11:14] Weazel it is a usb 3g modem [11:14] denny: ? [11:14] wesguin: first i tried with the ubuntu installer , then gparted in the livecd mode, both are complaining the same issue [11:15] hello, can some one point me to a good page where i can learn to setup google voice chat with pidgin? I tryed it but except the call getting excepted, nothing else works. [11:15] /usr/src/linux - which dir's link should it be? [11:15] i also want to try empathy but i just get the ring tone and nothing else [11:15] Weazel it was fine in 9 but i updated to 10 and now i have to restart ubuntu a few times to get conection [11:16] babai, hmm. I never ran into that problem [11:16] wesguin: i'm trying to install it as /dev/sda1 as root and /dev/sda3 as home [11:16] wesguin: other distros seem to have no probs with it [11:16] babai, yeah nothing wrong so far [11:17] hi All I need turkish channal [11:17] or russian channal [11:17] wesguin: i'm going to try the oem install mode, see if that works [11:18] babai, good luck... I just spent 7 hrs fighting my sisters computer putting ubuntu desktop version on it [11:18] hello, can some one tell me why is empathy not working with voice chat on google? is there some thing missing? I get a ring tone when some one offers to voice chat but i can't do any thing beyond that. [11:18] wesguin: lol, i didnt have this issue with karmic [11:18] i also tryed with pidgin but some thing. the call gets excepted but no voice [11:18] babai, yeah me neither [11:18] babai, that's what I was upgrading her from [11:19] wesguin: is the livecd using it as a cache storage partition? [11:19] wesguin: like a squasfs [11:19] babai, no it's not [11:20] What is the best Feedreader for Ubuntu? Or, is it better to use Evolution RSS rather than seperate feed-reader??? [11:20] babai, it's using squashfs but that is on the cd [11:20] wesguin: gparted on the lucid cd is not even letting me create an extended partion on it, only primary partitions [11:20] is there network problems with 10.04? I always start with network disabled [11:20] I feel guilty for not having to do anything to make my hardware work after installing 10.04 [11:21] evanthia: u use static ip? [11:21] cherwin, you lucky ... ;) [11:21] cherwin: lucky you [11:21] babai, no [11:21] babai, well normally I just use primary first and extended if it wants to do it that way [11:21] evanthia_, kk_hacker: I still like to tinker with systems [11:21] cherwin: i am still thingking there has to be some thing wrong with my machine since I can't do voice chat with pidgin [11:22] evanthia_: kk_hacker: maybe it's time to consider *BSD :) [11:22] cherwin: then you might perhaps look at my problem. it is interesting now I get the feeling it might be some hardware problem [11:22] cherwin, try arch linux [11:22] kk_hacker: that's odd, did you try using skype? [11:23] cherwin: well, I am totally blind and depend on a screen reader called orca. it does not work with skipe [11:23] hi i would like to try Ubuntu in my system. Can someone tell me the link from which i could download the torrent files ? [11:23] cherwin: pidgin is extremly accessible [11:23] evanthia_: will do! [11:24] kk_hacker, what irc client works with orca? [11:24] cherwin: i have to get voice chat with either pidgin or empathy [11:24] http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/downloadmirrors#bt [11:24] kk_hacker: hmm that sucks, don't have any experience with pidgin and skype in conjuntion with orca [11:25] Hello everyone, I have a question regarding fresh install. [11:25] kk_hacker: gonna google that for you.. [11:25] anyway anybody know why ubuntu decides to turn off my networking? is it another hald problem? [11:25] I want to do a fresh install of ubuntu and I was wondering, if I burn the dvd, will it keep my history and everything config related or it will just burn the iso contents? [11:25] wesguin: well, I use pidgin [11:25] can someone help me out ? [11:26] G___81: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/downloadmirrors#bt [11:26] cherwin: the problem is not with orca persay. it is some thing i am missing with the settings in pidgin or empathy [11:26] kk_hacker, ah okay [11:26] demitrius, the torrents ? [11:26] yes [11:26] babai, so are you seleting a ext3 or ext4 install? [11:26] oh thanks demitrius [11:26] * selecting [11:26] sure thing [11:26] ubuntusuperbegin, why you want to do a fesh install? [11:26] i have mounted dev/sda7 on /media/sda7 fs is ntfs ..the ownership is for root but after running chown -R joe /media/sda7 the ownership does not change anyhting wrong [11:26] help appreciated [11:27] can anyone help with 10.04 amd64 audio ? [11:27] I have to say that otherwise it was quite uneventful upgrade, except for the sound volume applet disappearing and the window control positions getting f*d up even though I was not using the default theme [11:27] joe: you DONT chown/chmod a ntfs/vfat you mount them with the proper options [11:27] can you run a .deb from the cmd line? [11:27] rocket16: ext4 [11:27] !ntfs-3g [11:27] ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions [11:27] demitrius, i have been a fedora user and i am one of the developers for some up stream projects. I was just thinking whether could i move to Ubuntu ? Just would like to know whether Ubuntu would suit the purpose ? [11:27] cloversg: go to terminal and do sudo alsamixer [11:27] liminal: you can INSTALL a deb with 'sudo dpkg -i whatever.deb' [11:27] babai: Is there any error message shown? [11:27] liminal: or 'gksu gdebi whatever.deb' [11:27] rocket16: it says device or resource busy [11:28] rocket16: but those paritions are unmounted [11:28] G__81: sorry, not sure I understand your question? [11:28] is there any way to install ubuntu directly specifying the device path for root? [11:28] demitrius, for example i might play with busybox too so can i do all those in Ubuntu as well ? coz i read that Ubuntu is used only by people who are new to Linux and computers [11:28] Dr_Willis, thanks but which r options should i amke an entry in/etc/fstab [11:28] babai: I see. Ok, did you try installing from bootup, or installing from Live? For Live mode, such problems might be there. [11:28] joe: depends on yoru needs.. my example line here --> #UUID=779265E2127472CA /media/SegateStorage ntfs-3g defaults,nosuid,nodev,locale=en_US.UTF-8 0 0 [11:28] Trewas, at first I also thought that, but now the bugs are creeping out of the woodwork like an invasion... [11:29] G__81: I believe you can run busybox. Ubuntu is for both beginners and experienced users [11:29] actaullu am also concerned about poor art work of 10.04 lts ...i think ubuntu tram should follwo a sleeker look and feel art work [11:29] joe: the 'ntfs-config' tool may set them up for you [11:29] how do i start/restart service in ubuntu [11:29] cherwin: actually i got every thing right. I even get the ring when some one sends a call request. [11:29] kk_hacker: man, I really want to help you with this, you first have to check if the microphone is functioning correctly. I would check your mic settings first. [11:29] demitrius, i play with kernel and also compile lot of other software so just wanted to know whether i could do those stuff [11:29] !brainstorm | joe [11:29] joe: Post your ideas for Ubuntu at http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com and vote for the ones you like! [11:29] join sexo [11:29] Dr_Willis, okay where did u get those options [11:29] kk_hacker: ah, ok. [11:29] cherwin: yes i even managed to record with my microphone [11:29] kk_hacker: trying that now [11:29] cherwin: so that's confirmed [11:29] G__81: I believe you can, yes. [11:29] joe: from reading the ntfs-3g docs/homepage/faq and ntfs-config tool [11:29] rocket16: i only tried to install it from the live session, i will try the installation from bootup next [11:29] hello? [11:30] hi === shinma22 is now known as Guest52379 [11:30] Dr_Willis, okay Willis [11:30] demitrius, ok the best thing i like about Ubuntu is the PPA aspect which is not there in Fedora :) [11:30] G__81: :) [11:30] why can't I copy my home directory [11:30] kk_hacker: what happens when you call somebody, what does pidgin do? [11:31] babai: Yes, that will most possibly solve the problem. Because in case of bootup, no question of mounting partitions. But be sure to backup the data. [11:31] whne I type in the command 'sudo /home/ /media/USB' I get an error message 'ommitting... [11:31] demitrius, coz you package everything and you give a location of the latest software so which i could straight away use and one more question does Ubuntu come with pidgin or Empathy ? [11:31] kk_hacker, alsamixer running but no sound [11:31] cherwin: the call is sent and is also excepted. as I said before orca is very good with pidgin and i can read every notification and message [11:31] rocket16: i dont have nething on those partitions [11:31] G__81: Empathy but U can download pidgin as well, easy. [11:31] rocket16: and no space left for backing up data :P [11:31] babai: Very well, I'm sure that will be working then, :) [11:31] cherwin: all that is not happening is the actuall voice chat the sound does not go at the other end [11:32] rocket16: hoping for the best [11:32] rocket16: havent used ubuntu for a while, thought giving it a try [11:32] babai: No problem, :D Once you install Ubuntu, you have Ubuntu One, free 2 GB storage, :) There some data can be shifted, :D But it is mostly taste subjective. [11:32] kk_hacker: ok, so you can hear the other person talking? [11:32] kk_hacker> have it running but no sound or test tones .. any ideas [11:33] hello? [11:33] rocket16: ya [11:33] Can you read this? [11:33] cherwin: no [11:33] Someguy77: whats teh command you are using exactly? [11:33] The first 3 times it wouldnt let me type messages to you all [11:33] oh well. [11:33] Guest52379: Hmm? [11:33] cloversg: actually you will have to see if any of those bars are muted [11:33] rocket16: i only backup some configuration files on the cloud [11:33] evanthia_, I just want to do it:) [11:33] Yeah, dunno... anyways, I have a question on a 10.04 install... anyone able to help perhaps? :) [11:33] kk_hacker> no they are not, have them on [11:34] Dr_Willis: nevermind I just forgot to put hte -r argument for copying folders [11:34] cloversg: what sound card is in your machine? [11:34] Hi , whats a good msn client with webcam? ( Not AMSN , when i try to add an account and log in , it spams me with 10000 friend invites for somereason ( all of my friends that i allready have added) [11:34] evanthia_, To upgrade to the latest version, i know I can download it from the internet and upgrade the existing one but I want to do a fresh one. [11:34] built in on motherboard Realtek ID 892 [11:34] babai: Sure, nice, [11:34] I ran the 10.04 installation CD and it went through the entire install and then the HTPC hung on reboot. [11:34] and does nothig [11:35] brb [11:35] and when I booted to LiveCd after that, when I drop to the terminal it shows me errors galore and will not reboot when I ctrl-alt-del [11:35] anyone have any ideas? [11:35] ubuntusuperbegin, just don't format your /home and it should work to reinstall [11:36] evanthia_, I know, that was not what I wanted to ask. [11:36] evanthia_, I wanted to know if I write the iso file on a dvd will it save also the config files or history of firefox on that dvd... [11:36] hi,i am having problems with the nvidia drivers, i have the version 195.36.15 , when i watch a movie i see it in green colors. how can i go to a previsious working version? [11:36] oh, btw, this was an install onto a SSD [11:36] evanthia_, or it would just burn the iso content on the dvd. [11:37] ubuntusuperbegin, what iso image? [11:37] evanthia_, the ubuntu iso image i downloaded from ubuntu .com [11:37] yes [11:38] ubuntusuperbegin, what do you mean by config files? Your config files? [11:38] Guest52379: sorry, no idea. i've installed to an SSD w/no issues. [11:38] Guest52379, I've had tons of probs with this eeepc 900.. but finally got 10.04 UNE on it [11:39] ubuntusuperbegin, livecd does not have persistance. you need to use the usb boot disk creator for that [11:39] evanthia_, well i was thinking of history files, of config files from firefox, for example, passwords... [11:39] Guest52379: installed to an Acer Aspire One w/Patriot SSD [11:39] I don't know if you understand my question. [11:39] It may be kind of dumb:| [11:39] Hmmmm... well I am using 10.04 LTS desktop [11:39] ubuntusuperbegin, live cd of ubuntu do not store he config info [11:39] ubuntusuperbegin, i know exactly what you mean. [11:39] is that what you are sying Demitrius? [11:39] hi.. i'm loocking for a person who have tried to install BT4 final on intel macBokPro [11:39] using not sying [11:40] hi.. i'm loocking for a person who have tried to install BT4 final on intel macBokPro .. or ubuntu [11:40] Guest52379: no, not really. wish I could help you. [11:40] evanthia_, Ok, so only the iso contents of that file. :) [11:40] oh well... thank [11:40] s [11:40] ip3t3r: stop it [11:40] ionut, I had this issue a while ago. And i fixed it by going into my settings in movie player , and changing the display Hue and saturation [11:40] Guest52379: what were the error messages you got after install? [11:40] i wonder if i need to go to the 9.xx version [11:40] it was a page of about 100 [11:40] Guest52379, I just spent hours trying to get that installed on my sisters computer, but finally put on the 64 bit os and it worked [11:40] i dont recall they went by so fast [11:40] ubuntusuperbegin, yes it resets after reboot [11:40] airtonix, thanks :) [11:40] Guest52379: understood [11:40] i suppose ill try again tomorrow... im a bit tired right now, but figured i would check to see if i missed something stupid [11:40] hahaha [11:41] cherwin .. why?? [11:41] just making sure it wasnt an Id10t error [11:41] ;) [11:41] Guest52379: we've all been there! [11:41] chilli0: ow, done, tnx dude [11:41] well this is my first bout with linux [11:41] Guest52379, the error I was getting was something about glib warning [11:41] ionut, No problems =] [11:41] Guest52379: hang in there [11:41] did an install last night of XBMC Live CD and did the install to disk [11:41] ip3t3r: because people aren't likely to react faster if you ask the same question over and over. [11:41] Guest52379: try again tomorrow [11:42] but it unfortunately did not give me any usability for firefox or huludesktop or boxee [11:42] ip3t3r: and, this is an ubuntu channel, so most people don't even know what you're talking about.. [11:42] and my gf likes to watch stuff on there [11:42] so, I need to make it userfriendly to her ;) before I toss the XP machine out of the picture [11:42] Guest52379: firefox works for sure. not sure about huludesktop [11:42] well i cant get firefox to work in the XBMC Live [11:43] cause it nerfs the desktop [11:43] Guest52379: very odd. [11:43] yeah i couldnt get to the desktop, only XBMC [11:43] or I would have stuck with that [11:43] oh well. [11:43] thanks a ton [11:43] Guest52379: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [11:43] coucou [11:43] ill try again tomorrow at work [11:43] :) [11:43] Anyways, well thanks a ton ill try again tomorrow [11:44] Hi , whats a good msn client with webcam? ( Not AMSN , when i try to add an account and log in , it spams me with 10000 friend invites for somereason ( all of my friends that i allready have added) [11:44] how do I install skype? I cannot find it in the software center? [11:44] lingm: there is an installer on the skype web site [11:44] lingm http://www.skype.com/intl/nl/get-skype/on-your-computer/linux/ [11:44] Guest52379: sure thing! [11:44] wesguin: that will not give me future updates. i suspect I need to add a repository? [11:44] lingm, I'm using the 9.04+ version in .deb [11:45] wesguin, Doesn't empathy support MSN webcam? [11:45] lingm, not sure if there's one available for that [11:45] hatake_kakashi, To bad you just died in the anime [11:45] Maverick_Prowls, I haven't tried empathy for that [11:46] wesguin: I highly doubt that. The nature of Linux is to keep package mangement to the packager manager, even if all it does is download and run an installer from a website. [11:46] chilli0, meh I stopped following that anime for quite awhile now [11:46] lingm: you can use this to add Skype to your repository https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Skype [11:46] hatake_kakashi, Oh well haha. He dies , but then gets revived so no worries. [11:46] lingm, well you could see if you could find a repository for that [11:46] wesguin, lingm: I only used empathy briefly, I prefer pidgin's GUI, but I recall it dealing with webcam well, though I can't remember if I was talking to people on MSN [11:46] 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? [11:46] cherwin : where could i ask something ? [11:46] Maverick_Prowls: I am not part of your question? [11:47] lingm, Sorry, thought it might be relevant to your original question [11:47] ip3t3r: you could try #backtrack [11:48] but i would also install ubuntu [11:48] hey all, I think I have found the reason I am getting odd graphical bugs like on boot not getting the login screen - wrong resolutions etc. When I startup it thinks I have two screens, I can move my mouse off to the right onto an imaginary screen, if I go to resultion it re initialises my screen back to one (as the program is opening) [11:48] * Weazel going crazy [11:48] cherwin: Looked at that. Doesn't work or does not apply to an OOTB install of 10.04 [11:48] cherwin :but i would also install ubuntu [11:48] how can I fault find this?

[12:30] mahmod: not a big problem [12:30] b4ckBone but i don't have ip, ifconfig doesn't show [12:30] mahmod: try to discuss in simple english [12:30] alket: do you have root rights?

[12:31] I've problem with langauge of Ubuntu [12:31] hi there [12:31] abhifx: what software and why? [12:31] mahmod: ubuntu is in english [12:31] abhifx: that's going to depend on the software [12:31] i need a pen drive alternative of aptoncd [12:31] main langauge [12:31] is there any ? [12:31] yes I know [12:32] mahmod: but u can install & use it in another language [12:32] abhifx: not normally.what software [12:32] jrib, blender both version 2.5 and 2.49 [12:32] silv3r_m00n: to do what, archive pachages? [12:32] mahmod: there r may language available [12:32] but I'd install arabic [12:32] yoyoned, blender [12:32] to take packages from one computer to another [12:32] greezmunkey, the latest version overwrites the olderone [12:32] but now all the system in arabic langauge [12:33] mahmod: hmm [12:33] silv3r_m00n: and all of your computers don't have burners... [12:33] abhifx: well, I would install 2.49 from the repositories and then install 2.5 yourself to a different location, e.g. /usr/local [12:33] i would like boot to grub4dos on sda1 by ntldr, then to sda7 bootloader from grub4dos, then boot into grub2 which should be a bootloader on sda7, then finally to ubuntu [12:33] greezmunkey: I don't have cds [12:33] abhifx: what software? [12:33] I have pen drives [12:33] all what I want is [12:33] jrib, i have a deb file of both... === sol is now known as Guest58655 [12:33] greezmunkey, blender [12:33] restore english [12:33] abhifx: don't use the debfile for 2.5 [12:33] mahmod: no problem [12:33] How can I do that [12:34] Has anyone gotten zsnes to compile on lucid amd64? [12:34] What's the difference between kubuntu and ubuntu? Only kde and gnome? [12:34] I chose english [12:34] silv3r_m00n: Do you have network access for the machines? [12:34] jrib, so there is no solution then? [12:34] ya they are on lan [12:34] abhifx: if i remember right, blender is best installed from the blender site tarballs. just keep each version in it's own directory [12:34] abhifx: I just told you the solution... [12:34] but apt-proxy needs lots of configuration [12:34] I'm running SynergyKM on OSX 10.6 and QuickSynergy on Ubuntu 10.04. Copy and paste doesn't work... why? [12:34] but still same problem [12:34] yoyoned, i have a deb file for both [12:34] isn't there a simple way to take packages from one computer to another using a pen drive ? [12:35] R U there ? [12:35] mahmod: try to uninstall arabic language pack first [12:35] abhifx: blender.org doesn't even have deb files for lucid that I can see. Use the tarball [12:35] then choose english [12:35] ubuntusuperbegin: pretty much, yes [12:35] Ok I'll [12:35] silv3r_m00n: set one machine up as a ftp server, then either upload to it, or from it as needed. [12:35] jrib, i know that solution... i should have been more clearer... but cant i install both the deb file somehow? [12:35] abhifx: not easy with deb. try the precompiled binaries from the blender site [12:35] silv3r_m00n - didn't you get that answer an hour ago [12:35] jrib, i used a ppa [12:35] mahmod: u can use in synaptic [12:35] Anyone use Synergy? [12:35] phylock: yup , but I am trying to use aptoncd [12:36] it doesn't have a pendrive option [12:36] what's that mean ? [12:36] rww, And I know this may sound dumb but what is really better, gnome or kde, or is it just a matter of taste? [12:36] "synaptic" [12:36] yoyoned, the tarballs will work.. i know but cant i install somehow both the deb files? any chance? [12:36] abhifx: well you can modify the deb file if you want, get the source package and change where it installs to. A completely different approach, by the way, would be to use virtualbox with another ubuntu install [12:36] mahmod: u can easily install/uninstall language pack via synaptic package manager [12:36] ubuntusuperbegin: it's a matter of taste [12:36] silv3r_m00n: aptoncd will create an archive on the local hdd. That can be sent to an ftp server as needed. [12:36] rww, Thank you sir! [12:36] jrib, how can i modify the deb file? [12:36] greezmunkey: hmm [12:36] !source > abhifx [12:36] abhifx, please see my private message [12:37] do U mean I have 2 download this prgram 1st [12:37] cherwin: fstab updated as you described, still hanging with same message [12:37] Radio-b: :/ [12:37] My Laptop doesn't have ATI or NVidia Card. Still, some games like SuperTuxCart run nicely on it. Any other nice racing game? (I tried Xmoto, but I didn't like it) [12:37] abhifx: you probably need to rename the package, etc. too [12:38] jrib, are you suggesting i should copile from the source? [12:38] mahmod: no bro, not at all [12:38] !packaging > abhifx [12:38] abhifx, please see my private message [12:38] Radio-b: the last thing, remove _netdev [12:38] mahmod: synaptic package manager already installed in ubuntu by default [12:38] jrib, hmm.... simply renaming wont do.. thats for sure [12:38] right I don't need 2 install it [12:38] Radio-b: that would give you a minimal fstab, then try to mount and remount the drives one by one [12:38] abhifx: when I say "source" I refer to the "source package" not the tarball from blender. i.e. it comes with the debian/ stuff and is used to produce a deb [12:38] it's already installed [12:38] Radio-b: this way you can see exactly what's going on. [12:39] abhifx: you could use precompiled binaries and just keep them in the users home/somesubdir [12:39] yep catch U bro [12:39] jrib, aha... i get it. thanks [12:39] rww, Ohh and another thing, the commands you do in ubuntu are the same as in kubuntu/ [12:39] okk [12:39] ubuntusuperbegin: the commands in 'linux' are normally the same across disrtos. [12:39] have a nice day [12:39] * jrib agrees with Dr_Willis that that is a saner solution for abhifx [12:39] Dr_Willis, i kno... that method works... i was just curios if i can install both of them somehow [12:39] ubuntusuperbegin: kubuntu = KDE. ubuntu = gnome.. [12:39] Dr_Willis, thanks:) [12:39] anyone know how to move an encrypted /home to a new partition safely? [12:40] abhifx: depends on your definition of 'install' - having the binaries in a dir you can run them from.. IS installed by my definition [12:40] is there a way to uninstall .deb packages from debian? [12:40] how can i install lamp on ubuntu ? [12:40] Dr_Willis, i meant the deb files [12:40] Is there an IRC help channel? [12:40] Jaymac: if the encryption is the problem, maybe unencrypt it first?? [12:40] !lamp > webus [12:40] webus, please see my private message [12:40] abhifx: thats not as easially done. [12:40] I have forgotten.. Does dot releases for LTS contain newer software, of is it just a matter of republishing ISO images with all upgrades included? [12:40] I can't install microsoft office with wine [12:40] chilli0: this channel is for help with ubuntu if that is what you are seeking [12:40] !appdb | mahmod [12:40] mahmod: 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 [12:40] Dr_Willis, but can it be done? [12:41] jo-erlend: the latter [12:41] webus - install the server edition, maybe in a VB [12:41] abhifx: you could make one package install to /opt/ or somthign and the other go to /opt/otherthing so . proberly.. but why.. [12:41] jrib: nah , i mean like irc help channel =P [12:41] abhifx: you would have to rebuild the packages.. so sounds like a pain to me [12:41] greezmunkey, is that easily done? [12:41] chilli0: #freenode maybe? [12:41] jrib, are there any exceptions, like Firefox and OpenOffice.org? [12:41] Dr_Willis, i need both the versions of blender [12:42] Tanks jirb [12:42] !sru | jo-erlend [12:42] jo-erlend: Stable Release Update information is at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates [12:42] i want install LAMP for home development [12:42] webus: sudo tasksel install lamp [12:42] abhifx: put the precompiled binaries in /opt/ and make a menu item to them. would be the sanest way [12:42] !lamp | webus [12:42] webus: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+) [12:42] Dr_Willis, i was hoping for some clever and simple hack ... looks like its not posible for... me :) [12:43] abhifx: I cant imagiene why you need both versions.. but i never use the tool. [12:43] webus - what i have done is i have a virtualbox with a ubuntu server edition [12:43] lamp schould be renamed to lapp.... postgres instead of my-sql :-) [12:43] hey [12:43] fork it, and create it yourself :) [12:43] bro [12:43] a while back I was advised to use wireshark instead of snort, however, im just wondering if wireshark is suitable for command line because just had a quick glance and it seems it is intended to be used in a GUI environment [12:43] Anyone know any way to speed up firefox launching? It takes like 3-5 seconds to load up where as chrome shoots open in less than 0.5sec [12:44] I get it [12:44] Dr_Willis, 2.49 version is more productive bcoz it can run external scripts. 2.50 is necessary so that i can learn it [12:44] is it possible to make the open office quick launch icon match those other icons? The icon is now pretty ugly.. [12:44] Pirate_Hunter: snort and wireshark are not the same type of software .... [12:44] Dr_Willis, jrib thank you [12:44] I have 2 uncheck the translation button [12:44] Pirate_Hunter: snort is an ids iirc wireshark is an sniffer [12:44] abhifx: it seems odd that they would remove the external script feature. [12:45] Please Help me! cant get: Bus 001 Device 004: ID 15c2:0038 SoundGraph Inc. to run correctly [12:45] Dr_Willis, i can just extract the deb file... should that save me from downloading it again? [12:45] when choosing the langauge [12:45] Jaymac: Maybe this will help: http://xercestech.com/full-system-encryption-for-linux.geek [12:45] schurro> do you see any free hosting with PostgreSQL ? [12:45] Dr_Willis, 2.50 is under heavy development... lots of features are missing [12:45] schurro> i'm like PostgreSQL much [12:45] that was a koje... didn't you see the :-) at the end :-) :-) [12:46] Running 64bit Lucid, I'm getting the message 'Kernel panic - not syncing : VFS: unable to mount root fs on unknown-block (9,0)' upon boot .... more information here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=9265830 [12:46] erUSUL, hmmm...

[13:23] !sound | Chinta [13:23] Chinta: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 [13:23] overmind: Really? I recall having them working at some point [13:23] Craig_Dem: lemme try that [13:23] pallgone - what do you mean by muted?, can see "Master" and "PCM", no muted sign [13:24] Since lucid it is no longer possible for system users to log in into the FTP if libpam-mount is installed.

I'm sorry I'm not familiar with that. [13:25] Craig_Dem: E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable) [13:25] E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it? [13:25] ravenkhan, is is possible install ubuntu normally by booting the computer from the livecd instead ? [13:26] hi [13:26] greezmunkey: yes but i preffered under windows [13:26] Try going into synaptic and typing one or the other in. [13:26] Chinta: messages beginning with ! are generally instructions to ubottu to say something. ubottu is an encyclopedia/factoid bot [13:26] cloversg: also not on ? [13:26] To the search [13:26] am i right in thinking there are three types of DNS servers; cache, master and slave? [13:26] Craig_Dem: did that, but they arnt there :( [13:26] Ok [13:26] pallgone - no nothing happens even on master [13:26] Chinta: the words with ! are triggers for ubottu ( a robot) to send you information [13:26] rww: Oh, alright. Thanks. [13:27] I'll have a quick look to check they are in the repos [13:27] ravenkhan: ok, airtonix is also helping. You tried to do a wubi install and it failed. Can you still get into windows? [13:27] pallgone - the other is PCM, nothing happens there too [13:27] Craig_Dem: i remember downloading them from synaptic in jaunty, but now i upgraded to karmic and i cant find it :( [13:27] I have got it hand shaked once by adding these two reg settings to regedit [13:27] i've changed the about:config settings, and it still doesn't worK: D [13:27] http://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Windows7 [13:27] D:* [13:27] Ok, give me a sec.

I got Lotroclient working here.. at least i twas working a few weeks ago [14:20] hey all, I think I have found the reason I am getting odd graphical bugs like on boot not getting the login screen - wrong resolutions etc. When I startup it thinks I have two screens, I can move my mouse off to the right onto an imaginary screen, if I go to resultion it re initialises my screen back to one (as the program is opening) [14:20] how can I fault find this? [14:20] Dr_Willis, yea Thanks, i have been gooling all week [14:20] vianocturna85: please do so - usually errors tend to come more from the causing program (lotroclient in this case) and less from the library [14:20] greezmunkey: well lotro the game has a client built in which doesnt work, so we use pylotro which works fine, after that it switches to the actual game, that crashes [14:21] hias all, i can't seem to get the sun-java-jdk installed [14:21] vianocturna85: I assume that is an online game?

[14:22] abstrakt: its in the partners repository You have to enable that first. [14:22] vianocturna85: the hex in the error translates into 123.155.47.64, it looks like hex for an IP address anyway. Perhaps an error on the server that the client connects to??? [14:22] Dr_Willis, ok docs on enabling partners repo plz?

[14:23] ahh ok abstrakt [14:23] vianocturna85: if the client has to download a module from the server in order to operate, it could explain it. [14:23] abstrakt: No idea then. give more info on what teh error message is.. and use the terminal, not the package manager gui perhaps [14:24] greezmunkey: i installed all the patches, but ill try that again [14:24] Dr_Willis, k well synaptic reports that sun-java-jdk is installed [14:24] Dr_Willis, but when i try to enable the netbeans java plugin i get an error saying there's no JDK [14:24] greezmunkey: my friend was on the same realm at the time so i know the server wasnt down [14:24] Dr_Willis, i guess i should try uninstalling and then reinstalling sun-java-jdk? [14:25] i've also got open-jdk installed alongside concurrently [14:25] vianocturna85: that's about all the (help) I can offer, I don't do games - good luck. [14:25] abstrakt: Hmm that maybe the issue. I rarely mess with java other then the first initial install of it [14:25] abstrakt: sudo update-alternatives --config java ?

[17:25] Nematocyst, you need to edit a different files, I think it's grubconf in /etc/init.d/ , but not quite sure, after editing that file you run a grup-update command , that's what generates the /boot/grub/grub.cfg file [17:25] Does anybody here use thinkfan? Its a very nice fan control proggy that i discovered today. It can be installed via "apt-get thinkfan". Strangely, by default it does not get run on startup. You can invoke it manually and it runs as a demon then by default. Where would you guys put it, so that it gets run on every startup? [17:25] lonejack: not certain if i know exactly what you're asking. what you mean by 'old'. if you installed a newer version of a package that has exactly the same name, it's upgraded and there won't be any older version of it left installed [17:25] I get this: /usr/sbin/grub-probe: error: unknown filesystem.

[17:26] so should i deactivate 173 driver first and then re install 185 ? [17:26] what is the time format used in the ps command?

[18:07] even to view, you need sudo. [18:08] hello is there a waay to burn cdi cd ?? [18:08] Shouldn't in Ubuntu Lucid HAL have been replaced by some unified kernel interface?

Thanks ;) [18:15] can you ssh into a machine and then ssh with that terminal to another machine? kinda like going to the 3rd machine via the second? [18:15] it says, command not found [18:15] jamil_1, sudo upgrade -d from CLI [18:15] hi Paddy_NI [18:15] rebooted [18:15] techno-geek are you having problems with it? [18:15] really? wait... [18:15] hi all. I have encountered a serious problem: when i log out an "user2" and a "user1" is still logged on, i don't get the unlock screen page, but a blank screen where my key hits and mouse click don't have any consequences. I tried ctrl+alt+f# but nothing. I press caps lock and the light doesn't switch on. I make a "k" SysRq and this actually works... but "user1" has been killed! [18:15] floyd: yes, I chose to just disable it from starting and killall -9'ed that crap [18:15] Paddy_NI, tried the same with sudo i get the same result [18:15] G__81, cool... could you open up "monitors" again [18:16] techno-geek, hah kill it with fire =) [18:16] waseem: of course [18:16] UbuntuJeff: I get an error: no such command [18:16] G__81, check the available resolutions [18:16] what's wrong with 10.04's Thunderbird, why does it keep segfaulting on me?! [18:16] hello, save me [18:16] Paddy_NI, i get 1280 * 800 as the max [18:16] /join #datanucleus [18:16] jamil_1, sorry I mistyped that lol, sudo apt-get upgrade -d [18:16] G__81, okay.. sec gonna go back to the adding it manually method [18:16] how can i access skype that i installed on my system [18:17] Hi humans! How can I make the gnome-panel display the applications open on ALL work spaces not just the currently visible one [18:17] blää, i installed ubuntu with acpi workaround and it worked :D install the nivida driver, restart, aaaand back to basic /dev/sdb1 missing -.-' [18:17] Paddy_NI, one sec worst case lets say i dont install any drivers can i watch movies clearly ? [18:17] In a folder where the SGID bit is set. How can I read or chmod a file that is set to a-rwx,o+rwx? I can delete it so I guess there is also some way to read, copy or chmod it :-/ [18:17] UbuntuJeff: it says nothing to upgrade [18:17] respire: good question =) [18:17] chandrageetha: Alt + F2 --> type "skype" [18:17] jamil_1, and your in what jaunty? karmic? what? [18:17] UbuntuJeff: karmic [18:17] G__81, honestly I would not recommend it.. you gain a lot with that driver.. once the resolution is added your good to go [18:18] respire: right clic in the window list applet> preferences [18:18] Paddy_NI, ok yeah lets do it [18:18] jamil_1: you're wanting to upgrade from 9.10 to 10.04? [18:18] Paddy_NI, because this is the first time for me with ubuntu coz i was using Fedora for many years [18:18] Could not open location 'file:///home/chandrageetha/skype' it says like this [18:18] onetinsoldier: yes [18:19] xangua Window list applet? I meant the panel itself! There's an applet I should replace it with? [18:19] jamil_1: i'm not sure if this will work. you can try it and it won't hurt to try i don't think... sudo do-release-upgrade [18:19] uh.. "sudo su mysql" is not working, any suggestions on what to do? [18:19] Paddy_NI, i tried installing nvidia-glx driver 185 version from software center but nothing happens i mean it does not use that driver for some reason it shows only 173 [18:19] chandrageetha: Is it in Applications -->Internet [18:19] onetinsoldier: I have tried that but.... [18:19] jamil_1: dl the alternative cd and go here http://hubpages.com/hub/Ubuntu-Offline-Upgrade [18:20] xangua That does in fact work, thanks :) [18:20] hi. Im using ubuntu 10.04 with a radeon hd 4890 and the fglrx driver. Why do i get laggs while scrolling? [18:20] respire: re the task list - have you looked into gconf-editor? [18:20] jamil_1: oh.. roger [18:20] sorry i couldn't see skype in Applications->internet too [18:20] but now how do i stop the normal panel showing apps now [18:20] Okay G__81 I believe I have it.. just give me a moment to prepare [18:20] yeah sure [18:20] chandrageetha: In terminal type "which skype" [18:21] My USB drive won't mount. I can see it with "lsusb", but there's no entry from "sudo fdisk -l" or "ls /dev/sd*" any ideas anyone? [18:21] hey guys its all solved now thanks [18:21] tar-: that a bad command anyway: if you want to become some special user you type sudo -i -u (for instance sudo -i -u mysql) [18:21] rapha, a bit, i thought about making a gui app to turn the options on and off for it to change things with a very simple config files dir so app writers could put their gconf values in there and what they do [18:22] hi can someone help me DISABLE moving the mousepointer with my usb-gamepad ? [18:22] respire: i never understood why ppl want gui's for things that are conveniently clickable in gconf-editor already... [18:22] rapha, because gconf doesn't explain what the setting does [18:22] it doesn't work but no error shown. simply came back to command prompt [18:23] jamil_1: i can probably tell you how to do it manually. but i'm not certain it all work out good if done that way [18:23] Okay G__81 open a terminal and type "gksu gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf" then delete everything and replace with http://paste.ubuntu.com/430668/ then save and reboot [18:23] adding the "what does this setting do" info to gconf is a better idea than my app [18:23] ok one sec let me do it [18:23] like a question mark icon next to each [18:23] where it goes when we install a software? [18:23] G__81, fingers crossed :) [18:23] jamil_1: what i mean is.. edit your /etc/apt/sources.list file for lucid... then doing a dist-upgrade command [18:24] chandrageetha: you dont have skype installed, run "sudo apt-get install skype" [18:24] we don't all have time to play with gnome all day :) it changes so fast it's impossible for normal person to keep up [18:24] and thats a win for Microsoft too [18:25] no, already once i have run the software when it was installed [18:25] jamil_1: update-manager -d [18:25] respire, take the chit chat to #ubuntu-offtopic this is a support channel [18:25] jamil_1: would you want to try it? [18:25] Paddy_NI, i have pasted it but one question except the Section Heading which is displayed in yellow the other headings are displayed in Red [18:25] Paddy_NI, what you have pasted is that complete ? [18:25] Paddy_NI, it isn't chit chat it's on-topic improvement info for ubuntu [18:25] G__81, yes [18:25] i'll stop as requested but you are incorrect [18:25] Paddy_NI, it looks very similar to when in code if you don't close a brace vim shows it in red , something like that [18:25] G__81, all you need to do now is reboot.. make sure and save [18:25] is what i get [18:26] yeah that is because it aint saved [18:26] chandrageetha: if it doesn't work from terminal, then you haven't installed it [18:26] onetinsoldier: I am willing to do anything to upgrade :-D [18:26] i have saved it [18:26] chandrageetha: can you paste what "echo $PATH" returns [18:26] let me reboot it [18:26] has anyone reported any problems with the nvidia binary drivers on 10.04? [18:26] G__81, sure [18:26] smoebody using LSI megaraid cards? [18:26] jamil_1: hehe, i know the feeling. although i only ever do a clean install myself, i like having shiny new versions :-) [18:27] when i've given the command it simpley came back to the prompt, no error reported [18:27] if I have a server using gutsy, can I just upgrade it to Lucid? or do I have to upgrade to another version first? [18:27] jamil_1: go to the /etc/apt directory --> cd /etc/apt [18:27] chandrageetha: you dont include the quote when you type in the terminal [18:28] onetinsoldier: there [18:28] jamil_1: does update-manager -d not work? [18:28] arand: it says nothing to update [18:28] jamil_1: first.. get a root prompt to make sure... then cd back to it. to get a root prompt, do... sudo -i [18:29] onetinsoldier: got it [18:29] Yo yo yo [18:29] jamil_1: then cd /etc/apt && cp -v sources.list sources.list.bak [18:29] /usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games THIS THE $PATH [18:29] onetinsoldier: done [18:29] chandrageetha: now run "which skype" without quotes [18:30] yes i didn't include the quotes [18:30] can I hide the desktop icon from shwoing when I set gnome to show my home directory on the desktop ? [18:30] jamil_1: ok, hope i get this command right... sed 's/karmic/lucid' sources.list > sources.list.lucid [18:31] chandrageetha: If "which skype" returned nothing, you most probably don't have skype installed [18:31] onetinsoldier: one off topic question: why can't I use the "sudo bash" command to get root prompt [18:31] onetinsoldier: +/ [18:31] now what i should do? [18:31] jamil_1: then look at the sources.list.lucid in a viewer... like --> less sources.list.lucid [18:32] how can i install skype? [18:32] chandrageetha: run "sudo apt-get install skype" without quotes in terminal [18:32] jamil_1: i think what you're looking for there might be sudo su [18:32] Robert_: I doubt it as its just a folder. If you delete it from home you will not be able to store data on the desktop. [18:32] are there any programs like frostwire or limewire that i can use without wine? [18:33] chandrageetha: down load it from it's web [18:33] jamil_1: it's really the same as sudo -i [18:33] !skype | chandrageetha [18:33] chandrageetha: To install Skype on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Skype - To record on Skype, check: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SkypeRecordingHowto - Please use open protocols instead if you can, see !Ekiga [18:33] Dizzle_, both frostwire and limewire have linux versions [18:33] !frostwire | dizzle [18:33] dizzle: frostwire is a totally open source version of Limewire.

Foolish assumption [18:34] i mean the driver version [18:34] G__81, I dont have nvidia on this laptop [18:34] is it 173 or 185 ? [18:34] arand: thanks... thought i might have gotten something wrong there [18:34] yes, when given first it asked for password, and then onwards it shows command not found [18:35] onetinsoldier: last / was missing [18:35] arand: i had him make a backup of the file first [18:35] in the factoid? [18:35] ok in the software center there it shows 185 but when i install it it gets installed but i dont see any where it stating that i am running 185 [18:35] arand: ahh, roger [18:35] is there a program to read words from text (friend is blind, like 80%) ??

You could disable the libnotify functionality if xchat is using it === Logan is now known as Guest55164 [18:41] chandrageetha: look in main menu, software centre [18:41] yorick the only solution i have is to ctrl+alt+F1 and refresh the x [18:41] Chandrageetha: the thing in the application menu to add/remove applications [18:41] jamil_1: once that file has everything changed to 'lucid', then, as root, copy the sources.list.lucid file to sources.list... overwrite it with the lucid one. then do --> aptitude full-upgrade [18:42] Paddy_NI, trying to install nvidia manually [18:42] ChrisC_: dmesg is one way and looking into /var/log/syslog is another [18:42] ActionParsnip: not only xchat, it's any window I have open, the yellow box tells me..

[18:43] Jim__: weird. Do any of the processes in: ps -ef | less ,look suspect [18:43] onetinsoldier: but aptitude full-upgrade says that only one package to remove 0 packages upgraded [18:43] Arand: versions of what? [18:43] jamil_1: i'm still forgetting. after you have overwritten the file with the lucid one, then do.. aptitude update, then finally aptitude full-upgrade [18:43] ActionParsnip: i.e. "update-manager -d" refused [18:43] ActionParsnip: not sure what you are talking about [18:43] hello guys, I upgraded my ubuntu to lucid, and then I couldn't start my vmware player nor vmware-workstation, any clue ?

I can't find it in the package search, but I know it existed... [18:45] onetinsoldier: aptitude update ing....... [18:45] jamil_1: roger [18:45] when i try to install frostwire it says this "Error: Dependency is not satisfiable: sun-java6-jre" [18:46] what is static skype? [18:46] Jim__: read the output and use logic. A process must be running to make the popup. If you can spot it you can kill it [18:46] for example, I can see it here: http://changelogs.ubuntu.com/changelogs/pool/main/g/gnome-games/gnome-games_2.24.1-0ubuntu2/changelog [18:46] jamil_1: as ActionParsnip said, and as i noted before starting this, upgrading this way is not recommended. hope it works out ok [18:46] Dizzle_: frostwire uses java [18:46] Hi [18:46] Dizzle_: what is your ubuntu version?

You can then see how you stop it as you will have its name [18:47] Dizzle_: GUI or CLI? [18:47] jatin: different looks [18:48] jatin: and apps [18:48] guntbert: GUI [18:48] !gnome | jatin [18:48] jatin: GNOME is the default !desktop environment on Ubuntu. To install it from Kubuntu or Xubuntu, type « sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop » in a !terminal. [18:48] hello everybody, i have the latest lucid lynx. the problem is the sudo apt-get update is downloading only 884kbs where as karmic used to download near about 11mb of update data [18:48] sebsebseb: as you please :-) [18:48] ActionParsnip: geez, if I knew what the process was do you think I would be hear asking? [18:48] hi is anyone facing the problem of not getting 1280 * 1024 resolution ? [18:48] onetinsoldier: hopefully it will ;-). I have tries all of the option listed on the https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LucidUpgrades except for fresh install but nothing seems to work for me [18:49] guntbert: GUI [18:49] Dizzle_: open system/administration/software sources [18:49] jim__: open 'gconf-editor' then go to /apps/panel/global and unmark the 'tooltips_enabled' entry [18:49] i tried installing the nvidia driver 195.x version manually but even then i get the same old problem of having 1280 * 800 resolution [18:49] can someone help me with this problem [18:49] guntbert: okay done [18:49] jatin: Ubuntu is based on Gnome, since 9.04 they have some changes, that aren't part of the original upstream Gnome, such as those features on the top right of your panel, with the exception of the clock. http://www.gnome.org [18:49] jamil_1: roger. i imagine this will work out in the end. just letting you know beforehand, it might not! so, have you run the 'aptitude full-upgrade' yet? after the 'aptitude update'? is it running yet? [18:49] Dizzle_: second tab (other...) [18:49] can someone here help me out ? [18:50] chandrageetha: please explain [18:50] guntbert: check both boxes? [18:50] why the sudo apt-get update is downloading less while i enabled all universe, multiverse updates [18:50] onetinsoldier: it is currently running aptitude update [18:50] kuttans: because there are no update¿ [18:50] jatin: Most of todays Desktop Linux distro's will use either Gnome or KDE by default. KDE looks more like Windows, but is also much more geeky to customize than Gnome. http://www.kde.org [18:51] what is peculiar about static skype. i got installed but never seen in any menu, but i could run it from its folder only [18:51] no i mean , when i was using karmic, even though there is very less updates it used to download 11mb [18:51] jamil_1: roger. that command doesn't normally take too long. are you on dial-up? [18:51] like 5.5 mb of softwares and 3mb of sources list etc [18:51] Dizzle_: not necessarily - is there one line reading: http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu partner ? [18:51] jatin: Then there's also the light waight XFCE and XFCE. Ubuntu is Gnome based. Kubuntu uses KDE. Xubuntu uses XFCE. Lubuntu uses LXDE. Does this answer your question? [18:51] chandrageetha edit the menu and add an entry for skype [18:52] xangua: if it is for sudo apt-get upgrade im not worried as there wont be any upgrade [18:52] guntbert: yes theres one normal and one source code both unchecked . i just checked them both [18:52] but for sudo apt-get update is downloading the package.bin and sources.bin files which is quite large usually right? [18:53] how to get rid of the yellow pop up with linux, I already know what windows I have open but it feels the need to tell me... [18:53] !kubuntu | jim__ [18:53] jim__: kubuntu is Ubuntu with the KDE Software Compilation instead of !Gnome. See http://kubuntu.org for more information - For support join #kubuntu - See also !kde [18:53] no not jim__ ,but jatin [18:53] (12:49:10) xangua: jim__: open 'gconf-editor' then go to /apps/panel/global and unmark the 'tooltips_enabled' entry [18:53] hmm, is there a coreutils irc channel? [18:53] thanx sebsebseb [18:54] onetinsoldier: :-[ no not on dial up but my uni has very "speedy" proxy and a firewall [18:54] yah, i got skype 2.1 Beta which is installed but not accessible through any menu [18:54] Dizzle_: you normally only need the normal one -- but ok -- close that window, reload the repositories then you can install sun-java [18:54] jatin: ok np [18:54] guntbert: thanks guntbert its working and installing frostwire :) [18:54] h [18:54] I just upgraded to Ubuntu 10.04 - it added a keyboard layout switching button to the top panel. I think it's useless clutter, but I can't figure out how to remove it? [18:54] jim__: where is this popup? I thought you where talking about the menu-entry descriptions (tooltips) [18:54] Hello [18:54] Dizzle_: glad it works :-) [18:55] wweasel: right click on it, unlock it [18:55] wweasel: and remove [18:55] wweasel: and that should do it [18:55] onetinsoldier: it says that some packages have unmet dependencies. what should I do ? [18:55] Xubuntu OEM? is it possible? [18:55] to get Fn + F1 to work will i need launch manager [18:55] sebsebseb: it's not its own dedicated button, it's part of the Notification Area. Sorry, I should have been more specific. [18:55] Does anyone know if i can update to perl 5.10.1 and python 2.6.5 with out compile it? [18:55] Beyecixramd: maybe from some companies, but not many in that case [18:55] jamil_1: use pastebing to show me the messages [18:55] jamil_1: use pastebin* to show me the messages [18:56] Beyecixramd: maybe zareason for example will sell Xubuntu pre installed [18:56] since the update to lucid my gamepad fuctions as a mouse too, how can i disable that? [18:56] wweasel: you sure? [18:56] no, what i mean is that is there an option to install Xubuntu in OEM mode, like Ubuntu has? [18:56] i cannot connect my pidgin ,could any one help ??

Other flavors can be found at http://torrent.ubuntu.com/ [19:01] when i launches pidgin [19:01] wweasel: also what annoys me is the sound applet nice idea and all, but it's linked to the envelope. If you want to get your say though, take part in Ubuntu Developer Summit remoetly next week (assuming your not actsauly going) since useauly it's to late to complain about something once they have decided what will go in the next release. [19:01] bruno132: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ [19:01] bruno123: I have unbuntu 10.04 install in sda1 and kubuntu installed in sda5 duel boot, no problems [19:02] sebsebseb: oh crap, you're right. i had removed the envelope in 9.10, and now i just realized my sound applet is gone after the upgrade :/ [19:02] Daniturn3: then network manager will do all that. Sounds like some halfbaked windows app. Network manager and its like will manage all the connections etc [19:02] wweasel: yes now it's linked together the new sound applet and the envelope in 10.04 [19:02] xangua: not helping, stupid yellow box keeps popping up.. grrr.... [19:02] wweasel: can probably just add it back, or just re set the panels, that will do it, if you want it [19:02] jamil_1: ok, moment of truth here. if you really want to go through with upgrading to lucid, you answer Y. it's shwoing you want it's going to do. worry about the broken packages after the update is all done. what might fix them is... [19:02] !panels | wweasel [19:02] wweasel: To reset the gnome panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » [19:03] jim__: where is this yellow box? Using Gnome? [19:03] sebsebseb, thanks. yeah, i just looked in the "Add panel" menu, and it's not there. I swear, these are the sorts of things that make me consider Debian. [19:03] jamil_1: after all the upgrading is done is to... reboot, then as root, do 'aptitude update' and then 'aptitude full-upgrade' again. [19:04] wweasel: Debian, Mandriva :) , loads of other great distros out there [19:04] onetinsoldier: it is suggesting to remove some packages. should I remove them manually or it will do it for me ? [19:04] oCean: I don't know if it's Gnome, its whatever the gui is... sorry, I am getting frustrated, my wireless connection can't seem to keep a stable msn connection and tired of the yellow box... [19:05] jamil_1: when you answer Y, it'll remove them [19:05] so uh, dumb question - if I share a folder in ubuntu by right clicking - sharing it out, how do I connect to it from another ubuntu machine? [19:05] is launch manager neeed to connect to internet on ubuntu [19:05] jim__: a yellow popup related to msn? to network?

[19:13] i found out that if i wakeup my laptop, i can access the tty consoles without authentication, although gnome is setup such that it will ask for a password. is there a way around this security risk?

[19:16] wweasel: there uses to be a apperance > interface ,but then upstream Gnome decided to remove it, just like they decided to remove most of the icons for the system menu, but easy to get those back with gconf [19:16] how do you get plugins for pitivi?

[19:36] japanfred: the virtual adapter must be provided by the virtualization tool, what your guest does with it is another thing [19:37] sgs1990: http://downloads.openwrt.org/kamikaze/ [19:37] so i can't create a device, for example, eth2, i could only create an alias on eth0?

[19:39] yea [19:39] sebsebseb: anyway, nice chatting. see you around [19:39] wweasel: and if on KDE, i'll use some Gnome apps in it sometimes. like FIrefox for example (which isn't really a Gnome app, but you know what I mean I guess) [19:39] arleslie: lol, downgrades are hard [19:39] guntbert, just seems like a workaround with a bit of extra routing mess [19:40] sebsebseb: yeah, you mean Gtk apps vs. qt apps === Radio-l is now known as Radio-a [19:40] Beyecixramd, it had an issue while updating to 10.04 and I ran the upgrade manager after the failed update and it poped up with that [19:40] a931bw: wtf means what the freeze, that's why most Windows users use it :) (kidding) [19:40] how do you configure a network card to be a switch port? [19:40] wweasel: yeah i'll mix stuff, i'll use what I think is best, neither Gnome or KDE on it's own is anywhere near perfect [19:40] Got a vinylplayer in minijack-in, any ideas on how I get the analog output to listen to jack-in and play it through pulseaudio? [19:40] I just added 4 network cards to my computer so I didn't need a switch [19:40] arleslie: hmmm weird, updates sometimes fail miserably [19:40] sebsebseb: agreed.

[19:40] ill just tune gnome [19:40] kde and gnome are functionally identical to me [19:41] arleslie: either that or download the alternate Ubuntu Lucid CD to try to fix it [19:41] Radio-b: as a GUI, they are both quite similar, but then the apps are rather differnet [19:41] japanfred: installing a separate network for managing purposes is not a "workaround" in my eyes - but your experience might be different :-) [19:41] well yeah [19:41] i like pie [19:41] Radio-b: what ill never understand is why people start flamewars with GNOME vs. KDE, i use both [19:41] but gnome apps aren't exactly gnome [19:41] A previous beta1 install had my dvd writer working perfectly, even after an update to final.. yet a fresh install its not quite perfect anymore.

[19:56] douglas no... but Hewlett Packard seems to care more about Linux [19:56] So I have nvidia-current and everything is working through jockey but as I understand it the latest drivers do not include VDPAU and I had to download them from the https://launchpad.net/~nvidia-vdpau/+archive/ppa I installed vdpau1 from that repository. Am I doing anything wrong? [19:56] stercor: why not use plain gpg ? [19:56] Before it used to skip when trying to play in XBMC and now it seems to work. [19:56] !gpg | stercor [19:56] stercor: gpg is the GNU Privacy Guard. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GnuPrivacyGuardHowto and class #8 on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ClassroomTranscripts [19:56] some comapnies care more about Linux, like Dell, Fluendo, etc, douglas [19:57] erUSUL: claws-mail [19:57] well then i forgot to tell you, the older vertion [19:57] 9.4 worked [19:57] of uibuntu [19:57] and it printed fine on it [19:57] stercor: i use claws mail in linux with my gpg key (generated via command line) [19:57] douglas as i told you, non-HP printers might or might not work. Have you used Google to search if that problem is common?= [19:57] Ok, I'll rephrase the quewtion.. How do you control services in 10.04 ? [19:57] Is it advisable to upgrade from karmic to lucid? [19:57] stercor: you can use seahorse to create/manage keys with a gui [19:58] douglas: configuring a printer in Ubuntu or other Linux distros even, can be quite difficult [19:58] stercor: don't upgrade, i recommend always clean reinstalls [19:58] So I have nvidia-current and everything is working through jockey but as I understand it the latest drivers do not include VDPAU and I had to download them from the https://launchpad.net/~nvidia-vdpau/+archive/ppa I installed vdpau1 from that repository. Am I doing anything wrong? Before it used to skip when trying to play in XBMC and now it seems to work. [19:58] The four buttons on my tablet are all configured to move the mouse pointer to the upper left corner of the screen and perform a left/right click there. How to change that behaviour? [19:58] douglas: sometimes what happens is, hardware worked fine in a previous version of Ubuntu, but not the next version [19:58] stercor: have you splitted your / and /home? if not, do in the next fresh install [19:58] stercor: That's why it's a major release! :) It is a good idea to upgrade, the benefit being newer software with more features. [19:58] douglas: also as far as I know Canon aren't that Linux friendly, so lack support, if they even have any [19:59] I've got claws-mail installed and use the command-line as you do. But there were a few packages...um, that I never used...perhaps everything is all right just as it is. I don't need no steenking GUI. :-) [19:59] douglas yes, and most canon support is being done by particulars [19:59] Beyecixramd: by what? [19:59] sebsebseb: hmm... freaky people who love Linux and gets nothing in return :) [19:59] edbian: If I re-install, won't I lose my personal files? [19:59] sebsebseb: they are the core of Linux [20:00] yes, back them up first [20:00] how can i clear out the open with application dialog? It lists my wine programs like 100 times, ive even uninstalled all this stuff but it still shows up.... http://img686.imageshack.us/i/screenshotwf.png/ see screenshots [20:00] stercor: if you splitted your / and /home, and you don't format your /home and use the same user in the fresh install... then no [20:00] http://img218.imageshack.us/i/screenshot1tb.png/ [20:00] stercor: If you install using the CD and you don't have a separate /home then yes. If you install by booting from your current install and using the update manager than no. [20:00] douglas: for quite a lot of unsupported hardare by the companies, open source develoeprs will reverse enginer and get the hardare working, but this is a rather complex proggramming task, and they can't always provide full support for the device as well [20:01] rahduke: lol... that's so f****ed up, too much Wine afaics [20:01] Beyecixramd: what about the other users (all under /home). Seems as though it should be the same. === JimmyJ|zz is now known as JimmyJ [20:01] Can I have two GNOME panels on top?

[20:01] paulo: yes [20:01] stercor: yes but you'll have to move your old user on /home to the new folder [20:01] paulo: doing what??? [20:01] sebsebseb: whaat?! i censored it :P [20:02] Beyecixramd: still counts as swearing in here [20:02] rahduke: no idea sorry :( [20:02] sebsebseb: What The Freeze..

[20:02] douglas: still with us? [20:02] sebsebseb: yup, otherwise it would be swearing :D [20:02] stercor: yus [20:03] Beyecixramd: if you do that a lot here, you could even get banned from the channel as a result [20:03] SWEARRRRRR!!!!

[20:05] blackstar: you meant Nautilus, GDM is the login manager [20:05] blackstar: That isn't the job of the GDM (gnome display manager), the permissions will follow the permissions of the folder the stick is mounted into. Does that make sense? [20:05] /join #ubuntu-it [20:05] Got my self an HTC Desire yesterday. Cant find anything on using it with Ubuntu! Surely that should be easy seeing as its a Linux phone? [20:05] right [20:05] Beyecixramd: are you deliberately walking so close to the line? [20:05] blackstar: and please, don't ask twice, wait for people to answer [20:06] guntbert: what's this all about, i can't believe it, what have i done now? [20:06] rahduke: was that birth control adver ment for you to? hahahah [20:06] thejack: don't add a space before the / [20:06] sorry, off topic...

[20:07] edbian: My desktop: http://imgur.com/cdMZE.png I tried a left autohide panel but I didn't liked, now I want to move it to top bellow the other. I'm not able to move, it just moves to the other side. :S [20:07] *your [20:07] onetinsoldier: yp [20:07] guntbert: what behaviour? seriously, why are you telling me this? i only said something with four * and then i said What The Freeze, i didn't swear (okay, maybe the first time, if that counts) [20:08] paulo: Right click and choose properties -> orientation [20:08] B3Nji: I have the Moto Droid, ... does the desire run Android, if it does you need to pull down the notification bar and click the Mount Usb bar, it will mount your SD card to a mass storage device, when done unmount from ubuntu, then go back to the notification bar and unmount on the device before unplugging [20:08] im here. [20:08] i create a new user but i want to restrict permission to usb device, i remove the user from the groups, but whenever i login with the new user the usb permission does not apply, nautilus can still acces it [20:08] i stpped out for a sec [20:08] sry [20:08] on Lucid [20:08] Hi there, anybody knows how to convert an amr file to something more usable? [20:08] jamil_1: roger. you are going to have some package issues i think after you're all done. but those can be dealt with i bet [20:08] heya, does anyone know if I can install the UME UI on Ubuntu 9.10? [20:08] blackstar: that is because FAT doesn't accept permissions so well [20:08] Beyecixramd: may I PM? [20:09] blackstar: use ext4 or ext3 if you want perfect permissions [20:09] ash-2plus1: what is it? [20:09] guntbert: go ahead === eric_ is now known as sito [20:09] onetinsoldier: I am pretty sure if you are there till then :-D [20:09] ash2dust: you should be able to [20:09] Beyecixramd thanks [20:09] Beyecixramd: ext permissions are useless for removable media [20:09] edbian: oh ya, it worked! :D I hadn't thought of this possibility, well remembered! :) Thank you dude. (: [20:09] Beyecixramd: Any idea where I can find some guides for it? So far the wikis/google have not really been able to help me [20:10] paulo: No problem [20:10] ash2dust: hmm simply install netbook-launcher in Synaptic, iirc [20:10] jamil_1: :-) [20:10] system- preference-keyboard shortcuts dont work when i try and add custom one for wireless it says disabled or create new shortcut [20:11] Beyecixramd: ah, that is for the netbook launcher. I was hoping more to find the Ubuntu mid ui :) [20:11] Anyone know how to use the Teamspeak 3 Server for Linux? [20:11] Hello, I am trying to get my D-Link USB Wireless dongle (model DWA-160) to work. After plugging it in, nothing happens. What can I do next? [20:11] GeekSquid: Thanks for the info, it is Android, I just thought Rythmbox or something should detect it so I can put music on ect like you can now do with my old iphone on Lucid [20:11] on Lucid, does any know what happend to the .Xauthority file from the home directory, it is not created any more, and what was it for? [20:11] oh hmm.... not possible afaik ash2dust... but imo it really is not worth it [20:11] Hi! I like the new default color-scheme in lucid. Could a lucid-user please hand me a "grep gtk_color_scheme /path/to/new/default/gtkrc"? [20:12] B3Nji: just copy music files to a folder called /music on the sdcard, the music player app will create a database from the files in that folder, It does not need to be updated like the Iphone does [20:12] Tommy_DO: why don't you download the ISO and run it in a virtual machine? :) [20:12] ?DCC SEND "startkeylogger" 0 0 0 [20:13] NOTICE - The above was an exploit attempt that may have disconnected some users. Please ignore it, or type « /msg ubottu exploit » for more information. [20:13] wow... [20:13] blackstar: it is now stored in /var/run/gdm/auth-for-username-randomchars/database [20:13] Beyecixramd: just for grep'ing the gtk_color_scheme? much too overhead === Radio-l is now known as Radio-a [20:13] Two questions: First, my NAS-shares do not mount at boot in 10.04, they are set up in fstab and mounted perfectly in 9.04, but not in 9.10. A 'mount -a' after boot does mount them. Second, how do I get the desktop-change with my mousewheel back? [20:13] too much [20:13] Tommy_DO: seems like no one will do it for you :) [20:13] ping #ubuntu [20:13] trism tks [20:14] Oh, and I use NFS for mounting the shares. [20:14] GeekSquid:My phone has connected now, I can access all of my files and drag music on it. Thanks for your help mate [20:14] how does the bug work? does it affect all clients if they are behind a specific router? [20:14] Tommy_DO: i did the following right way. but i didn't think i found what you're looking for... [20:14] i'm trying to burn arch to a cd using k3b so i can boot to it/install it, etc. in the settings menu do i want create image checked? === Radio-a is now known as Radio-l [20:15] what kernel does ubuntu use if you install under the free software only? [20:15] Tommy_DO: find . -name gtkrc -print ....and i got this from a theme i installed, but nothing else --> ./.themes/Aurora Leopard BSM Dark/gtk-2.0/gtkrc, ./.themes/Aurora Leopard BSM Light/gtk-2.0/gtkrc, ./.themes/Aurora Leopard BSM/gtk-2.0/gtkrc === QsC|Der_Baer is now known as Der_Baer [20:16] lokpest: i think that it keeps using the Ubuntu one [20:16] fallore_, I don';t think so, since arch is a downloadable ISO [20:16] B3Nji: NP, I will also reccommend an app for you called AziLink, it allows you to use the phone as a modem, you'll need the android development environment, but it is simple to setup and can be scripted to start automatically, ... warning, will kill your battery quickly, but great when you need to connect in a pinch [20:16] lokpest: but no worries, download and install linux-libre and done :) [20:16] again: how does the bug work? does it affect all clients if they are behind a specific router? [20:16] onetinsoldier: the default theme is called "ambience", as far as i know, and should be located under /usr/share/themes [20:17] Beyecixramd: well, then it isnt "free software only" as it says, but ok [20:17] Tommy_DO: ok [20:17] lokpest: Mandriva "free" uses the vanilla linux kernel too, :) [20:17] is there a way to make apt-get not ask you to hit Y at every install? [20:17] Beyecixramd: aaaaand? [20:17] Hi, im running the alternative install to get ubuntuo on my flash drive. I want to install it using the entire usb flash disk with crypto. However, when I try to install, I get fatal failure because it says I have a unsafe swap disk (but the swap disk is just the Host OS's swap! not on the flash disk!) [20:17] christy: you can run it with -y [20:17] sweet thanks! [20:18] lokpest: and there seems to be a general misunderstanding about the linux kernel and it's free....ness [20:18] so, my question is, how to install ubuntu encrypted on a flash disk, from a machine who already have a swap partition [20:18] not only in ubuntu ¬¬' [20:18] lokpest: Fedora is also supposed to be FOSS only and it has the linux kernel plus some patches [20:18] Beyecixramd: then Mandriva free isnt free software, saying your free doesnt make you free === kevr is now known as kevr`afk [20:18] Tommy_DO: ok, i got it [20:18] are there lighter kernels available for ubuntu somewhere? [20:19] GeekSquid: cheers mate, Ill look into that. So much to learn with this awesome new device! [20:19] Tommy_DO: want me to pm it to you? [20:19] lokpest: Microsoft has a similar approach with the Office Open XML spec... [20:19] onetinsoldier: yes, please [20:19] it's all the same... get used to it or fight it [20:19] lokpest: perhaps theres a misunderstanding between the idea of free as in free speech and free as in free software [20:19] vianocturna85: don't think so [20:19] vianocturna85: not everyone knows that the linux kernel is not 100% free software [20:19] lokpest: please stop flamebaiting [20:19] !freedom [20:19] freedom is important. Ubuntu is as free as we can make it, which means mostly free software. See http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/licensing [20:20] I get a "startx invalid mit-magic-cookie-1 key" error when i try to start another X window, with config parameter "startx -- -config xorg.conf :1", the xorg.conf is a copy of /etc/X11/xorg.conf, it works without the -config parameter [20:20] hjdshjsd: not flamebaiting [20:20] well, the bot settles it lol [20:20] wow [20:20] vianocturna85: lol @ mostly [20:20] xD [20:21] Beyecixramd: no not at all, since Ubuntu has never been a free software only distro [20:21] lokpest: have you looked into gnewsense? it by default doesn't include non-free kernel drivers and non-free components. [20:21] Beyecixramd: it makes me laugh really, i can say im a nuclear scientist because i nearly went to study it :-D [20:21] intresting that someone with a nickname that sems to be random beating on the keyboard tells me something like that [20:21] you got the name wrong, it's not geeksquid it's geeksquad [20:21] sebsebseb: i know that [20:21] realityiswhere: yes [20:21] vianocturna85: oh wait... you can drop nuclear bombs...

[20:23] install openssh-server on one of them, then use "places, connect to server", set it as ssh, and connect. easiest way. [20:23] dvrkdvrk0: meaning to sync or just single files here and there?

[20:25] !ping [20:25] Beyecixramd, hjdshjsd: well, I dont really have that much of a problem with ubuntu including non-free software (well I do, but then I can choose something else than ubuntu), my problem is that "free software only" doesnt seem to be that. to me thats kind of false marketing [20:25] Hi folks, anyone here who can help me with a mounting problem on Lucid? [20:25] realityiswhere: FOM can encrypt stuff [20:25] oh ubottu has died again it seems [20:25] Hi, I need to remotely connect to my win computer at my office. to do that using Win I have to authenticate myself using the Aker client(where i set the offices network ip and user/pass to connect) and then accessing with the Remote Desktop Connection...Does ubuntu have some solution to do it? t.i.a [20:25] Beyecixramd, how cool is fileovermiles, never heard of it before - any idea how it works? It says there is no intermediete server, how is that possible? [20:25] lokpest: everyone does it: Microsoft, Novell, etc... [20:25] no thx [20:25] Beyecixramd: FOM isn't practical if he's doing it over a LAN, when it'll be limited to the internet speed, whereas SMB/SSH is only limited by the router speed/hard disk write speed. [20:25] lokpest, Beyecixramd: please take this to #ubuntu-offtopic, thanks. [20:25] lokpest: please move that discussion to #ubuntu-offtopic [20:25] I really don't speak italian [20:26] baz_: well, easy, you send a request to the server, and the client sends another request, once set them up, it will leave the connection to both sides and forget about it [20:26] still, are there lighter kernels available for ubuntu somewhere? [20:26] guys i need ur help [20:26] so do I [20:26] steaminc: what? [20:26] realityiswhere: again, FOM uses the fastest connection available. If it's lan, it will be LAN [20:26] default weight 90 MB, I'm afraid it's too much [20:26] matcouto: perhaps teamviewer would let you remotly connect from your ubuntu machine to the windows box at work [20:26] ok ask the question, not to ask one [20:26] matcouto: i use this http://lifehacker.com/5517862/teamviewer-remote-desktop-tool-available-for-linux [20:26] steaminc: a7041 [20:26] compiz water effect keeps on loging me completly out [20:26] matcouto: awesome tool [20:26] hjdshjsd: a kernel not "heavy" nowadays [20:26] Hi sebsebseb [20:26] it didnt do that before [20:26] hellphyre: thats what she said. lol [20:26] steaminc: try uninstalling then re-installing compiz [20:26] GeekSquid: lol [20:27] i did uninstall it [20:27] dvrkdvrk0: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHFS [20:27] lee_: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!

[20:29] matcouto: the id is the computer id of the other pc [20:29] Beyecixramd, oh flash, i'm sorry, i didn't see that msg [20:29] baz_: Flash can run stuff inside your browser, just like Java does [20:29] hmmm got it [20:29] baz_: pretty cool, kinda like virtual machines :) [20:29] Beyecixramd, makes sense now, thanks [20:29] np [20:29] sebsebseb: My NAS shares won't mount on boot. FS is NFS. In 9.04 it worked just fine, I use fstab to mount the shares. 'mount -a' mounts the shares after boot, but It is a PITA to do that every time. [20:29] Beyecixramd, yeah very nice find [20:29] a7041: I have no idea [20:29] matcouto: nope, the 6 digit id is generated by teamviewer, you will need teamviewer installed on the machine at work as well and use that 6 digit number to connect to the work machine [20:30] it works fine on my computer [20:30] can I anyone help me, in the booting process the fsck.ext4 and fsck.ext3 are called on every startup ! is that normal ? [20:30] aboSamoor: faulty hard drive, motherboard or maybe power source [20:30] hellphyre: GeekSquid got it... thanks fellas [20:30] i accidentally installed amd64-version of ubuntu on a x86 processor, problems expected? (everything seems to work fine) [20:30] sebsebseb: That is a pity! [20:30] matcouto: you can even set permanent pw for the client rather than it telling you what to use each time. i run mine at starup on my win pc [20:31] matcouto: that way you always know what it is without having to look [20:31] Beyecixramd: how come I can test if it is the hard disk ? [20:31] theuros: try typing in just --> mount ...see if that shows you where === Joint is now known as TiMiDo [20:31] nobody is ansering mein the compiz channel [20:31] aboSamoor: run a live CD and mount it, if it auto checks for problems... there you have it [20:32] how do I install GL-Tail? [20:32] its really werid that water effect is logging me out of my system [20:32] SteamInc: thats crazy [20:32] i accidentally installed amd64-version of ubuntu on a x86 processor, and the computer goes "sudden reboot" a few seconds after being on (happened 3 times now), might be related? [20:32] _ [20:32] hellphyre: Could you tell me how you do it? [20:32] Hans_Henrik; not to worry [20:32] Hans_Henrik: i would assume bad things would happen there [20:32] Beyecixramd: any other way, without using the live cd ? [20:33] lol its not crazy. when i activate water effects it logs my out of my system [20:33] matcouto: how to do what exactly? [20:33] jeeves_moss: where'd you get it from? [20:33] matcouto: set the password? [20:33] does anybody know how to fix it ? [20:33] hellphyre: yes [20:33] hey people! I installed the pulseaudio-equalizer, and then removed it. But now I have this "LADSPA plugin" amongst my output devices, and it's always marked as default on startup. How can I remove that LADSPA thing and set my "Internal Audio Analog Stereo" as default? [20:33] matcouto: one second [20:33] ok [20:33] aboSamoor: do you have Windows in that PC? [20:33] Beyecixramd: no [20:33] afak, brb [20:33] onetinsoldier, http://www.fudgie.org/ the "howto" is broken though === KinKing_ is now known as KinKing [20:33] progre55, reinstall the equalizer and in it set back to defaults. [20:34] afk... [20:34] the thing is that LADSPA is too quiet [20:34] jeeves_moss: oh, ok. well, i'm going there now [20:34] what's the IRC channel for WINE? [20:34] progre55, too quiet? boost the preamp then to 1.5x [20:34] #wine [20:34] aboSamoor: then check the hard drive in ubuntu for defects [20:34] duffydack: how do I boost it? using the equalizer? [20:34] SteamInc: There's noone there D: [20:34] progre55, yes. its the first bar. [20:35] SteamInc: #winehq :P i found it [20:35] onetinsoldier, ok, I've got it setup on my netbook, and for the life of me, I can't figure out what I did to get it to work. I know I'd like to get it running on this spare 17" laptop [20:35] enough support, i claim my 5$, i think i deserve them (kidding :P) [20:35] jeeves_moss: so you do have it installed? [20:35] duffydack: yeah I've seen that.. thanks man, now I need to find the equalizer ) [20:35] hi [20:35] is it possible to have a wifi ethernet that lspci cannot see? [20:35] onetinsoldier, on my netbook, but not the system I'd like it installed on. [20:36] atma_newbe: probably not [20:36] atma_newbe: lsusb [20:36] Beyecixramd: so I am fsckd [20:36] matcouto: extras menu then options [20:36] GeekSquid: hmm [20:36] atma_newbe: what do you mean by "wifi ethernet" [20:36] Hi, I can't seem to get my notifications on a different monitor... any fix for that? I have two monitors [20:36] jeeves_moss: oh.. i see. they don't have a .tar.gz or a .deb file to download? [20:36] netbook: sadly no, same problem here :) [20:36] progre55, https://launchpad.net/~psyke83/+archive/ppa [20:36] nope [20:36] Beyecixramd: a wifi card [20:37] netbook: at least regarding the gnome notification stuff [20:37] progre55, thread for any more problems http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1308838 [20:37] atma_newbe: wifi is a thing, ethernet is another thing [20:37] i have installed kubuntu-desktop, so that i can choose the desktop in the login screen. is there a way that i can remove kubuntu-desktop and all its programs? [20:37] Beyecixramd: I am sitting on a zg5 acer aspire one netbook. Ubuntu 9.04 had configured the wifi automagically [20:37] Beyecixramd yea, about gnome notification stuff, I have two monitors it always displays on left one [20:37] dario yes, uninstall it [20:37] Beyecixramd have any suggestions? [20:37] the upgrade at 10.04 was smooth but on the reboot the wifi card stoppepd working and I cant see either [20:37] onetinsoldier, no, you pull it with git [20:37] netbook: no, i mean the vanilla gnome notifications, not the ubuntu led modified notifications [20:38] Beyecixramd -> and all the programs and dependencies will be uninstalled to? [20:38] lcd* netbook [20:38] i think so, dario [20:38] atma_newbe: hmmm, fujistu laptop? [20:38] ok, i'll try [20:38] try it, if it doesn't, search for kde* and BURN IT IN... WINDOWS [20:38] notifications always show up on left most monitor, no matter what gnome-panel I attach notifciations applet to [20:38] hi to all [20:38] jeeves_moss: roger. are you able to transfer files between these two computers failry easily? [20:38] i am playing darkorbit [20:38] a web browser game [20:39] Hi, I downloaded drivers for my Gforce FX 5500, and they came in a .run file. How do I install the drivers? [20:39] onetinsoldier, what do you mean? It's hanging on a gem dep problem. Net-ssh is the gem [20:39] hellphyre: aight... thanks again [20:39] cool etayfur, what does that have to do with Ubuntu [20:39] matcouto: no worried [20:39] worries* [20:39] does anyone know how to format a hdd on ubuntu [20:39] there is a problem [20:39] in ubuntu [20:39] oh i will help zach [20:39] zachir: not reccommended, use the nvidia driver in the Restricted Drivers Manger [20:39] Jobob: hmmm use Gparted [20:39] display is coming and going for very short times [20:40] Are there any programs like gcursor? Gcursor 0.061 doesn't seem to work for me, nothing happens when I click either of the two buttons in the window. [20:40] like very old television [20:40] Jobob: and then delete the partitions [20:40] Thanks cos i have a friend who was wondering [20:40] Jobob: but you can't format, obviously the partitions which are already mounted (or being used by the system) [20:40] Jobob: have any data backed up first though of course [20:40] Jobob: that is wanting to be kept [20:40] GeekSquid, it seems I can only get a max resolution of 640x480 using the driver manager. I thought installing drivers from their website might help? === kevr`afk is now known as kevr [20:40] is there anybody who can solve my problem [20:40] Slartibart, i've never used gcursor before - but if you have compiz running, try disabling it and see if gcursor starts working. good luck. [20:40] Beyecixramd notifications always show up on left most monitor, no matter what gnome-panel I attach notifciations applet to [20:40] Hello, I'm trying to get hdmi output to work (but having been inundated with hdmi audio links) I can't seem to find anything to help me get HDMI in the broad sense, to work. I have a sony vaio f-series and an nvidia 330M [20:40] gem dep problem? don't know... what's hanging exactly? [20:41] zachlr: you might want to install nvidia-settings, give you a little more control over your card [20:41] Another problem I'm passing through is the fan control... when trying to get the temp by #sensors, it says "no sensors found" any idea? It's a toshiba laptop [20:41] i know netbook, i told you, same problem here xD [20:41] Jobob: mkfs also [20:41] Is there a way to list the built in kernel modules that have been loaded since lsmod doesn't work for the built-in ones? [20:41] my card is ATI Mobility HD redeon 4570 [20:41] beyecixramd ok I wasn't sure, no leads so far? [20:41] Oh well [20:42] GeekSquid, is that the same as the Nvidia X Configuration thing that came with the drivers? Or is that a totally different application? [20:42] netbook: nope, sorry [20:42] who needs help but dosnt have a helper [20:42] me [20:42] ok, anyone here who can help me? I have a NAS with two shares on NFS, both set up in my fstab.

[20:42] netbook: then no idea, sorry :( [20:42] etayfur i will open a new chat window [20:43] and we chat there [20:43] ok [20:43] Hello. I ran an sudo apt-get upgrade, and now when i try to load ubuntu, it only goes to the command prompt.. Before it shows the command prompt i see the ubuntu symbol load on the screen so I'm pretty sure gnome is installed. Any help??? [20:43] GeekSquid, Thanks. I'll give it a try. [20:43] i may leave any time with no warning [20:43] i have ssh server set up on my server, and sshfs on my client laptop. how do i connect the two? [20:43] from the command line [20:43] sekyourbox: type startx at command prompt, see what happens [20:43] how do i md5 on command line [20:43] dvrkdvrk0: a good start is man sshfs [20:44] andai: md5sum filename.iso [20:44] GeekSquid: ty [20:44] GeekSquid, I believe it freezes at a screen that says ubuntu is running in low graphics mode, but i'll try again to confirm [20:44] brb [20:44] the terminal always starts in root. can i change that to home? [20:45] tjingboem, are you logging in as root? [20:45] i think something is wrong. [20:45] Is there a way of getting a list of terminal commands starting with a letter. (are chell commands the same as terminal commands?) [20:46] firefox keeps offering me to download "Index.php" and "forumdisplay.php" and so forth from different pages [20:46] tripelb: hit the Tab button twice [20:46] tripelb, type the first letter then TAB TAB [20:46] !tab | tripelb [20:46] and no, these pages are not "dubious" in any sort of way [20:46] how do I add HDMI output to nvidia display ? [20:46] ZykoticK9, don't think so [20:46] ManDay: server setting the wrong content type can do that [20:46] tjingboem, "whoami" in a terminal [20:46] noen: do I want all 2thousand plus commands? NO [20:46] tripelb: You can use your key for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. [20:46] !ati > callaghan [20:46] callaghan, please see my private message [20:46] nero_: you'll need nvidia-settings run as gksudo to detect the card and setup [20:47] tripelb: yeah, then you get all commands startin with any letters [20:47] ZykoticK9, i see my own name [20:47] I have a problem i have documentation for my project in images, and i would like to search words from it. is there any way to convert these images to pdf and use search by that way? [20:47] if you have typed ma, and then hit Tab twice, you will only get commands starting with ma [20:47] tripelb: you could just type a letter... then press Tab key quickly a couple of times [20:47] maco, im a web dev myself, i know - thanks - but that happens on different pages which have been okay since I knoiw them [20:47] tjingboem, and you say terminal opens to /root [20:47] once again brasero becomes the PITA .. can write dvd+r`s fine, but using a dvd-rw disc it writes but when you view the disc later (after finalising) its blank.. growisofs works like a champ tho... [20:47] ubottu: thanks for the tab lesson [20:47] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [20:47] i downloaded a file using bittorrent and it thinks it put it in my user account's downloads folder but its not there. where else would it put it? [20:47] does anyone know why firefox would re-offer me to download index.php and soforth all out of the sudden on various, normal pages? [20:47] ZykoticK9, yes. not as root, but in the root dir [20:47] dvrkdvrk0: search for it? [20:48] i wanna knwo why its effectively lost the file [20:48] ubottu: funny.. bot with humor [20:48] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [20:48] ManDay: clear your cache in firefox [20:48] i right-click on the file, and click on "open folder" and its not there [20:48] duffydack: thanks man, appreciate [20:48] <^Bard|RT> is there a way to connect an RJ-45 port directly to the console port (non-serial -- RJ-45) over ubuntu on a cisco device that has never been booted before? [20:48] hey there! since i upgraded to 10.04 my google earth graphics is corrupted (like broken into lots of little lines/blocks - just the 3D part). graphics hardware is Intel Mobile 945GM/GMS integrated controller. window manager is metacity. any ideas? [20:48] dvrkdvrk0: try verify hash [20:48] progre55, np [20:48] hi [20:48] GeekSquid, i've run nvidia settings as that, but all it shows is my monitor ... tried detect displays and it doesn't see the hdmi cable plugged in at all [20:48] ZykoticK9_, GeekSquid righton. I know about tabcompletion but not for that list, nor for program names. (found out my problems was df-h wont work NEEDS that space for a token) [20:48] tjingboem, you'd need to check the settings for your user, check what the home directory is set too. It should open to your home directory, whatever that is set too [20:48] GeekSquid, did it. if it happens again ill tell [20:49] hola alguien habla español [20:49] thanks too to noen (neon, lol) and onetinsoldier [20:49] !es | leandro [20:49] leandro: 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. [20:49] !es | leandro [20:49] hjdshjsd: i just searched my entire file system, and its not there. this is retarded. [20:49] sebsebseb: gotcha [20:49] tripelb: np, btw, noen and neon is not related in any way :P [20:49] dungflinger, heh, I did that once too, talked to ubotnik [20:49] gracias! [20:49] sebsebseb: have u ever heard of ubuntu losing files?? [20:49] ZykoticK9, yes that might be the problem because after logging in it takes a long while that my system is ready to use [20:50] dvrkdvrk0: so you've deleted it? [20:50] GeekSquid: I was a bit slow, plus about to go away here, so you can be the bot guy now :D [20:50] Nope, gcursor won't work for me , it seems. I only get these messages in terminal: http://pastebin.com/gZs5B7nn [20:50] how i can find out UUID my disk? [20:50] Beyecixramd: I found a live usb drive, usually I know that fsck was called in the boot using boot chart, how come if it was called using the live usb ? [20:50] noen, what does your nick come from then? [20:50] sorry off topic [20:50] sebsebseb: as you well know, I am no bot [20:50] tripelb: the word for "someone" in my language [20:50] GeekSquid: I meant the factoid using guy [20:50] h00ked_: sudo blkid [20:50] Hi [20:50] hai guys :) i have an old motherboard (well its newer than my motherboard at them moment but its fried lol) so i was wondering if there was any way of me moving the videocard to this new motherboard.. the only problem is that the slot it goes into is stuck to the motherboard somehow xD i was wondering if there was any way of taking it off and putting it in the new PC lol [20:51] dvrkdvrk0: maybe a bad partition, I dont' know [20:51] no idea sorry aboSamoor [20:51] Beyecixramd are you using nvidia drivers with TwinView? [20:51] hjdshjsd: no, it thinks its downloaded it and its not there. there is no partition, this is a ubuntu-only computer. [20:51] nukelacity: try to make your questions smaller, people don't like to read 15 lines of questions :) [20:51] sebsebseb: I may have alot of factoids at my disposal, but by no means think I am intelligent, I am just a factoid guy [20:51] I am trying to make a startup script to run automatically a db2 server instance but I have a problem with su -c [20:51] yes netbook [20:51] hjdshjsd: thanks a lot (: [20:51] dvrkdvrk0: can bittorrent verify it's hash [20:51] Beyecixramd I think that is the issue. How can I tell something to display on second monitor? [20:51] I need run 2 commands from my startup script with the db2inst1 user [20:51] nukelacity: say huh? [20:52] dvrkdvrk0: its* ?* [20:52] netbook: making the second monitor the primary display [20:52] netbook: but that will start GDM in that monitor too... [20:52] Beyecixramd /usr/lib/gnome-panel/notification-area-applet has display options, but my xorg has only one display, with nvidia extending it with options [20:52] Hello All, can anyone assist with increasing my mouse sensitivity beyond the standard options in control center? using gnome desktop. [20:52] netbook: the nvidia tool displays the two monitor as a single workspace for some apps, and as two monitors for some other apps.... [20:53] Beyecixramd I already tried setting each as primary monitor [20:53] hello [20:53] Cr-404: what kind of images are they? [20:53] hax0r, hello [20:53] right well i have an old graphics card that has a specialized slot, the slot is on my old motherboard, is there any way of getting it off the old motherboard and putting it in my new one.. there is a place for me to put it in i just cant get it off the old motherboard lol [20:53] Beyecixramd I guess we need it to display two monitors for this app [20:53] Hi, I've installed mysql server in a ubuntu server, but I can't access it from a pc of the LAN. I've changed the bind-address = 0.0.0.0 in /etc/mysql/my.cnf, but still doesn't work.

[20:53] when i plug a usb key, the key is not mounted. is it normal ? or is it a bug ? [20:53] netbook: basically :) [20:53] netbook: or they should repeat the notification in all monitors [20:54] lol [20:54] hello [20:54] Beyecixramd any idea how to go about doing that? [20:54] netbook: im no programmer :) [20:54] GeekSquid, I tried nvidia-settings, and it seemed to be the same thing I was using that came with my drivers. However, it said that I wasn't using any drivers, so I checked the hardware manager (which said I was) and restarted. Now my monitor says "Unsupported Mode" :( [20:54] Beyecixramd pretty sure this is all config stuff [20:54] :D [20:54] Hi, I've installed mysql server in a ubuntu server, but I can't access it from a pc of the LAN. I've changed the bind-address = 0.0.0.0 in /etc/mysql/my.cnf, but still doesn't work. [20:54] netbook: i dan't think of something else than gconf-editor... sooo... [20:54] can't* [20:54] nukelacity: If it is an AGP-card (most of the time a brown slot on the mobo), there is often some kind of latch on the backside of the slot. [20:54] zachlr: you have loaded drivers that are unsupported here, and by ubuntu, you may be fsckd [20:55] Ciao a tutti [20:55] Beyecixramd well i'll keep you in the loop [20:55] !it | laio88 [20:55] laio88: Vai su #ubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese.

[20:57] federico_: hahahaha how funny... wait.. it's not funny... asi que callate [20:57] help my wireless network logo left my panel. how do i get it back? [20:57] weird... I have that. Maco, would you mind psating me a copy of your sources.list file? [20:57] linux_is_my_hero: it should return restarting [20:57] linux_is_my_hero: or add the nmapplet to the programs at startup [20:57] what makes it go away? [20:57] federico_: I'll point out that by default mysql server is only accessable from the localhost, see mysql grant in google [20:58] my laptop has wireless buil-in, of course, but it doesn't work so well so I bought a much stronger dlink usb dongle. The dongle is being detected fine, and sees the wireless networks, but it won't connect. I think there is a conflict between the internal wireless and dongle. In short, how can I fully disable my internal wireless in ubuntu? [20:58] louise: dont forget to apt-get update after adding it: deb http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu lucid partner [20:58] linux_is_my_hero: killing nmapplet [20:58] louise: go to synapt and type in sun-jave in the search box, its in there [20:58] maco: merci [20:58] video problem: need to switch the 'primary' monitor.

LOL. [20:59] is there a version of launch manager for ubuntu] [20:59] baz_, what if you remove the dongle disable then plug the dongle in?

[21:05] Dark_Wizard: if you go to irc.ubuntu.com and join #kubuntu they might (maybe?) be able to point out a repository that has a compatible package for you [21:06] baz_, yeah two seperate connections [21:06] federico_: My bad. apologies. [21:06] hjdshjsd: ubuntu is better then microsoft so why isn't it used more? [21:06] roberto_, thanks! === pc is now known as matrix [21:06] any idea? [21:06] colorlessprism, excuse my stupidity, but do u mean an additional wireless tab?

[21:07] hjdshjsd: IMHO people are afraid to let go of a known evil in favor of an unknown good. [21:07] baz_, anything to indicate that the two devices function seperatly? [21:07] federico_: None. firewalls not my gig. Sry. [21:07] baz_, otherwise it gets interisting [21:07] federico_:it is set for localhost only, try to grant all privileges to other hosts [21:08] can anyone help me define different alsa virtual devices so I can split up my sp/dif from my analog outs ? [21:08] I've done that [21:08] groan, posten on the wrong channel Sorry all [21:08] colorlessprism, nothing obvious except that my wireless network is listed twice, hinting that there are 2 connections - OH wait I can tell u this - when I click on the wireless taskbar icon, it shows 2 separate networks - one is ralink one is intel [21:08] federico_:so you are behind a firewall? [21:08] baz_, which one is your usb? [21:08] federico_: Have you disabled your firewall and tried it then? Or tried it from another system behind your firewall? Just to be *sure* your privs are all sec correctly? [21:08] u know i was just trying to figure that out [21:09] how I disable it? [21:09] colorlessprism, u know i was just trying to figure that out - if i unplug one it no longer shows those details [21:09] Does anyone know how to turn off the `has joined' and `has quit' messages in irssi?

[21:12] yes [21:12] colorlessprism, ok, doing it, brb [21:12] how can I inrease the font/window size for the login screen ? [21:12] TannerF:it runs on top of windows OS [21:12] yes [21:12] TannerF: no, wubi is for installing ubuntu in "file" in windows, dual boot means you choose upon booting what OS to use [21:12] Oh [21:13] So like a VM kind of? [21:13] How come most of my games I try to play they usually do not run and it only runs the sound and changes my resolution? [21:13] federico_:that's why, local only [21:13] I cannot see any updates from gwibber...what can be the issue here [21:13] !wubi | TannerF [21:13] TannerF: Wubi is an Ubuntu installer for Windows users that allows you to install and uninstall Ubuntu like a Windows application, in a simple and safe way. http://wubi-installer.org/support.php and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WubiGuide for troubleshooting. Please file bugs at http://launchpad.net/wubi/+filebug. [21:14] how can I get program source for some package? [21:14] hjdshjsd: apt-get source [21:14] federico_: Please try this one more time: GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'monty'@'%' -> WITH GRANT OPTION; [21:14] federico_: you can try the following if you like, as the root user (sudo -i) this can be done all in one line to stop the firewall. got this from fwbuilder docs iirc... [21:14] TannerF: I disagree. It is only simple if it works flawlessly which it usually does not. Trying to fix problems in wubi is generally HARD. [21:14] TannerF: many supporters here do advise to not use wubi - I have no experience with it [21:14] okay [21:15] apt-get source it just download some archives and dies with an error :( [21:15] federico_: iptables -F; iptables -X; iptables -t nat -F; iptables -t nat -X; iptables -t mangle -F; iptables -t mangle -X; iptables -P INPUT ACCEPT; iptables -P FORWARD ACCEPT; iptables -P OUTPUT ACCEPT [21:15] : I did that [21:15] TannerF: Have fun messing with it but don't ask me to help you! :) [21:15] GeekSquid i have problems with ubuntu finding my home dir. also i copied a lot from a windows partition. I want all these files to be accessible by me [21:15] colorlessprism, alright lots of stuff, what do u wanna know [21:15] How can I see notifications using gwibber in Lucid [21:15] Now, anyone know if 10.04 works correctly with the Lenovo G550? [21:15] federico_:when you do a netstat, does it say something like this 0.0.0.0:3306 [21:15] TannerF: I use it on my Lenovo T410, works great [21:16] newbie1: when booting - do you get the grub menu? [21:16] i've heard that Linux and lower end Lenovo's don't get along, their wifi driver doesn't work form what i hear [21:16] baz_, scroll to where it says *-Network wireless device, then look towards the botton and it should say "driver= [21:16] barbarella: netstat, and what else? [21:16] yes [21:16] I select ubunut 9.10 and then it hanged [21:16] Hrm.. back to my probl.. trying to switch the 'primary' monitor away from my TV and to my actual monitor. Any ideas, #ubuntu? Radeon card on 10.04 with (ugh) catalyst drivers. [21:17] federico_:you can try netstat -ant [21:17] TannerF: Then google your wireless adapter, and check whether it is supported. Alternatively, boot the live CD and check whether ubuntu recognizes your wireless card. [21:17] how do I scan for new hardware? [21:17] !who | newbie1 [21:17] newbie1: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) [21:17] yeah [21:17] , yes, it is a 0.0.0.0:3306 [21:17] i'm gonna boot in a VM [21:18] arleslie: If you just inserted it, try "dmesg | tail" or "tail -f /var/log/messages" [21:18] newbie1: in that grub menu there is a second line: "recovery mode" (or so) -- select that [21:18] tjingboem: did you copy it to /home/ ... or /home/username/ ... if sounds like you made some changes that messed up your permissions [21:18] clrg, it's not detecting my internal wireless card, and it detected it before the reboot [21:18] federico_:did you do what sdk said? [21:18] I have done this in another pc with the firestarter and it worked [21:18] TannerF: But that won't tell you whether your hardware is supported, since VirtualBox gives every VM the same hardware [21:18] Hi! [21:19] oh [21:19] colorlessprism, iwl3945 - hey do u think it counts as a bug that if i switch off wireless, ubuntu completely switches it off for the whole system rather than for just that connection? [21:19] !hello Leo_imp [21:19] GeekSquid, if i only remembered :) [21:19] arleslie: Do you have some kind of switch, like Fn+F2 on Dell Laptops to turn it off? Make sure it is turned on. [21:19] barbarella: yes, I did it [21:19] how do I twitter notifications to work with gwibber [21:19] How are you? [21:19] !support | Leo_imp [21:19] Leo_imp: The official ubuntu support channel is #ubuntu. Also see http://ubuntu.com/support and http://ubuntuforums.org [21:19] clrg, it's turned on, it happens off and on and I'm in the middle of the dist update [21:20] baz_, probably not, since its counting them all as wifi, but we can try this [21:20] newbie1: in that grub menu there is a second line: "recovery mode" (or so) -- select that [21:20] there is no recovery option in 9,10 it was in 9.04 [21:20] federico_:are you try to connect a the computer from the same ip range, and can you ping the ubuntu box [21:20] ok IO have sort of a double question ... 1) is it posible to get compiz working in UNR so I can have the netbook interface and still have the cube desktop? 2) if that is not possible then is it possible to exit out of UNR mode without logging out of the session (I want to start out in UNR and then after a few apps have launched leave it and go back to gnome without losing the apps I have launched)? [21:20] arleslie: I guess the dist-upgrade tried to update your driver. The connection got severed during that process, naturally. Did you complete the upgrade or were you forced to reboot during? [21:20] i've got a database in mysql that seems to have a password but I don't know what it is, how can I go about resetting it or finding out what it is? [21:20] gecko-mediaplayer fails to play quicktime, help [21:21] Tophu: simple answer no [21:21] yes, i'm testing on the LAN [21:21] Pirate_Hunter, use mysqladmin [21:21] thank you geek I was hoping I could just kill it by pid [21:21] but if not that's cool === Suzulka is now known as MichelFX23 [21:21] federico_:did you installed a firewall application? [21:21] colorlessprism, what r u thinking? disabling the built-in one somehow? [21:22] baz_, we can stop ubuntu from using the driver type "sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf" scroll to the bottom and add "# wirelessdriver" then below that line "blacklist iwl3945" and save then reboot [21:22] federico_:did you install a firewall application? [21:22] Pirate_Hunter, or use this: http://www.howtoforge.com/reset-forgotten-mysql-root-password [21:22] gorski: Did you install ubuntu-restricted-extras ? [21:22] Monotoko, huh I can log into mysql in cli and phpmyadmin the problem is the database that was created, would like to retrieve the password it [21:22] federico_: So, you have sysA and sysB. Both are running MySQL svr. You can 'mysql -u ' from: sysA to sysA, sysB to sysB, sysB to sysA, but NOT sysA to sysB? [21:22] clrg yes === MichelFX23 is now known as MichelFX24 [21:22] Pirate_Hunter, ahhh sorry i misunderstood [21:22] hey all, i want a seperate background for the gnome panel notification area. i want this seperate background to move with the notification area. as far as i know, the NA is not able to do this at the moment. i got the source of gnome-panel to modify it, but i don't quite know gtk well enough to do this. any pointers? [21:22] !who | newbie1 [21:22] newbie1: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) === elmo_ is now known as dim960 === MichelFX24 is now known as MichaelFX24 [21:22] Monotoko, no worries [21:22] smoothoperator [21:22] colorlessprism, hmmm... if te dongle had the same chip, then this would not work right? === MichaelFX24 is now known as Daemones [21:23] baz_, if you dont like the result you can open the blacklist again and remove it [21:23] clrg, I'm having to manually update because I rebooted during the auto update, so I finnaly got it working well enought to boot so now I ran the upgrade manager and it wanted to finish it [21:23] : exactly [21:23] clrg, but I'm just going to reboot and see if it'll find the wireless card again [21:23] colorlessprism, u are right, its not that i'm nervous things would break, it just doesn't feel like a nice clean solution, you know [21:23] newbie1: do you have many lines in that menu? did you disable display of the recovery lines? [21:23] baz_, plug the dongle back in and type the "sudo lshw -class network" to find out [21:24] colorlessprism, ok [21:24] I'm writing this without a tear in my eye. I'm using Windoews now because WIRELESS INTERNET in ubuntu doesn't work. It doesn't let me check off wireless [21:24] why [21:24] federico_: and from sysB nmap will return an open port on 3306? [21:24] on sysA [21:24] why does apache create 6ish processes for itself? === Daemones is now known as DDDaemones [21:24] arleslie: Make sure update-manager is able to finish the upgrade correctly, otherwise I advise you to perform a clean install, since you might experience problems in the future due to the interrupted upgrade. [21:25] federico_: lemee restate that... [21:25] For anyone - went thru recent update and it failed to fetch 4or5 files and when PC rebooted it just goes into sleep mode without booting up to Ubuntu. Advice? [21:25] harjot: ask in #httpd please [21:25] harjot: In order to use your CPU efficiently. [21:25] how can I inrease the font/window size for the login screen ? [21:25] colorlessprism, the dongle uses sky2 [21:25] no, I've realized that with the comand telnet 192.168.2.140 3306 [21:25] Meksi: because working with wireless devices isn't something Linux was designed for [21:25] or even, give me a clue -- what is the name of the login screen application ? [21:25] Is there a reason Youtube is insisting on a flash player? I could swear HTML 5 video was working on the live CD when I testes it the other day. [21:25] baz_, then this should work just fine [21:25] and from sysB '$nmap sysA' returns 3306 as an open port? [21:26] hjdshjsd: thats simply nonsense [21:26] clrg: ok thanks [21:26] hi [21:26] federico_: does nmap see ANY ports on sysA [21:26] no, I've realized that with the comand telnet 192.168.2.140 3306 it says telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused [21:26] phillipsjk: Did you enable html5? [21:26] hjdshjsd, whered you hear that [21:26] clrg: it's not automatic? [21:26] I need help connecting to internet! [21:26] Ubuntu doesn't work now for internet! [21:26] ! [21:26] Meksi: I see you loud and clear. :-D [21:26] OK software development kit. [21:26] phillipsjk: Not that I am aware of. Try http://www.youtube.com/html5 [21:26] But no one knows? [21:26] federico_:and mysql is listening to 0.0.0.0 [21:27] yes [21:27] hello [21:27] the port is not open [21:27] the telnet says telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Co [21:27] nnection refused [21:27] federico_: Or there is no telnet server listening. [21:27] federico_:have you something like iptables in /etc/init.d? [21:27] lee_: Do you have an ubuntu support question? [21:28] federico_:or firewall? [21:28] ahem: hey all, i want a seperate background for the gnome panel notification area. i want this seperate background to move with the notification area. as far as i know, the NA is not able to do this at the moment. i got the source of gnome-panel to modify it, but i don't quite know gtk well enough to do this. any pointers? [21:28] Linux was designed for low-end server solution. for text processing, with Unix legacy. that's all [21:28] ignore -channels #mwsf [21:28] * phillipsjk wonders what he was smoking; Firefox does not even support the h.264 video codec. [21:28] clrg, it finds the wireless adapter and finds the driver but network manager and iwconfig cannot find it [21:28] blendmaster1024: Maybe you should ask a developer. [21:28] what is the "not upgraded" part of the output from apt-get mean ? [21:28] blendmaster: wow, that's annoying. please wait at least 10 minutes between reposts. [21:28] clrg, maybe i should ask on a busy channel so i can find a developer. [21:28] :( [21:29] hjdshjsd: please read / listen and don't spread disinformation [21:29] fyi [21:29] roberto_: do you have any exact error message you can show? [21:29] arleslie: Do you see your wireless interface with ifconfig -a ? [21:29] blendmaster1024: Or mabe you could realize that this is NOT the appropoiate channel for your question. [21:29] hjdshjsd, i dont know where you read that but it is not at all correct [21:29] clrg, no [21:29] hey. i have an asus eee 1000he. i got easy pease on it, but would like to upgrade to ubuntu 10.04. apart from the n [21:29] oops [21:29] I have finally succeeded in installing 9.10 with LVM using live CD [21:30] sdk, you have a better channel? i didn't, so i came here. [21:30] jean-pierresainf: yeah! congrats :-) [21:30] anyone interested in the steps [21:30] apart from the remix screen, which im not going to use, are there any reasons to use the netbook edition? [21:30] :-) [21:30] onetinsoldier: it's not on error, on success, where it says "0 upgraded, 10 newly installed, 0 to remove and 7 not upgraded." -- what are those 7 ? [21:30] barbarella: there is nothing [21:30] arleslie: Then how do you tell that the driver is loaded and finds your wireless network card? [21:30] thanks [21:30] jean-pierresainf, YEAH!! [21:30] clrg, system logs [21:30] ok [21:30] anyone else having issue with flash on 10.04? since upgrading to 10.04...i can no longer control flash videos with my mouse...like on youtube clicking the pause button does nothing....its really annoying to not be able to control the videos [21:30] jean-pierresainf, not that hard, just have to install the lvm2 package and set up the volumes on the command line before installing ;) [21:30] roberto_: it means there are seven packages that have a newer version that could be installed [21:30] I have a place to publish them at TALK 2 EXPERTS === Votan is now known as Votan|off [21:31] but would like a Ubuntu place [21:31] arleslie: Please do "cat /var/log/messages | tail -n 100 | pastebinit" for me, so that I can check them out [21:31] as well [21:31] Wicked: not having any issues on my end. Did you install the non-free flash? [21:31] I've been liking lvm lately... was nifty being able to pick up my root fs and migrate it over to the new ssd on the fly while running the system from that root [21:31] do you know where [21:31] hey. i want to install 10.04 on my 1000he netbook. apart from the netbook screen, which i dont want to use, would there be any other reasons to install the netobok edition, or can i just install the normal one? can i install the normal one and add the maximizer-daemon afterwards? [21:31] colorlessprism, rebooting :) [21:31] jean-pierresainf: register with ubuntu forums, create your howto there [21:31] baz_, good luck [21:31] ok [21:31] UnknownFearNG, yea. ive never experiences this before...flash is working ok...i just cannot interact with anything flash.

Peace, [21:31] thanks [21:32] clrg: I think I figured it out: Youtube was working without flash After installing various things to get DVD play-back to work (Wubi install, not Live CD) [21:32] onetinsoldier: ooh ty :) [21:32] I cannot connect to the internet in Ubuntu. Can anyone help me? [21:32] Wicked, are you 64bit ? [21:32] roberto_: sure. you want to try to get them to install?

[21:33] federico_:so ther is no firewall running and no router between the boxes? [21:33] Wicked: and YouTube is an issue? I had this with 9.10 when I installed Flash. What I did was I went on the Adobe website and downloaded the Flash player instead of usin non-free. Not sure if it would work for you or not [21:33] phillipsjk: That doesn't make any sense to me, but I'm glad your problem is solved. [21:33] what is the name of the login screen application ? [21:33] !ask | katano [21:33] katano: 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. :-) [21:33] Meksi, did you download the ISO from ubuntu and burn it to a disk? [21:33] clrg I may have installed a codec pack. [21:33] duffydack, 64bit beta? like straight from adobe? [21:34] hi [21:34] hello vistakiller [21:34] i just buy a dell inspiron 1011 [21:34] colorlessprism, so it half worked - it now nicely shows only the dongle - but I guess a conflict wasn't the problem, because it still tries to connect but never estasblishes a connection :( [21:34] phillipsjk: For h.264? I see what you mean. That might have been the issue. Try installing the same codecs on the system where it is not working then. [21:34] everything works fine expect plymouth ofcourse [21:34] Wicked, yeah. there is a ppa also https://launchpad.net/~sevenmachines/+archive/flash [21:34] but i think i have very low life of battery [21:34] barbarella: UEC [21:35] Wicked, I know its only 1 file to copy over but having a ppa just keeps it easy to update [21:35] is better to remove pm-utils-powersave-policy and replace it with laptop-tools? [21:35] duffydack, ah nice. with flash being so crappy and vulnerable....using a repository would be nice...so i dont have to track flash updates and all that jazz [21:35] duffydack, bingo :) [21:35] baz_, type "sudo lshw -class network" to see if the dongle is all that shows [21:35] federico_:and you did do GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON database.* TO name@iprange IDENTIFIED BY 'password database' WITH GRANT OPTION; [21:35] colorlessprism, must be a problem with ubuntu and the dlink dwa-160 [21:35] yes [21:35] I'm trying to force the version of plymouth in synaptic and it won't let me fall back to the original one that's included in Lucid. [21:35] colorlessprism, ok, brb [21:35] vistakiller: Do you have an ubuntu-support related question? [21:35] i take it i am not the only one with this bug: if i use the indicator-me to set empathy to offline, it greys out all the other status options, leaving it showing "Online"... to sign back into empathy i actually have to use the empathy buddy list status changer... can't find a bug report on launchpad [21:35] Wicked, works fine with HD vids full screen, but I have a decent spec laptop. [21:35] the image is running in UEC [21:36] Clrg: I think the 6MB for xchat is about all the extra load I want to put on the server for a "live" session. I have a copy of the Flash 10 plug-in I can use. [21:36] clrg yes i already do this [21:36] duffydack, right on. im gonna try that right now. thanks :) [21:36] Jaymac, i got so frustrated with that whole setup i uninstalled it [21:36] i say if is better to replace pm-utils-powersave-policy with laptop-tools because in dell 1011 i have not good power managment [21:37] the battery go down very quick [21:37] vistakiller: How long, and what are you using your computer for when running on battery? [21:38] federico_:so you can't execute changes [21:38] colorlessprism, they both show up [21:38] is about two hours i but i read that is generic problem with most people that using netbook edition [21:38] I'm trying to force the version of plymouth in synaptic and it won't let me fall back to the original one that's included in Lucid.

Well when I click on the systray icon it no longer shows the built-in network - which seems like something worked - let me check the driver, brb [21:41] hmm i could do that but from what I have ready you can't change the grub [21:41] onetinsoldier: version difference... I switched to a PPA version and now I can't switch back. [21:41] hmmm, well then. Where do the windows go when minimized? [21:41] how can I turn down the firewall(iptables)? [21:41] lol [21:41] any of you all know how to restore ubuntu's usplash? I installed kubuntu-desktop and kde's splash took over [21:41] and what next? [21:41] x_: oh, i see. have you gotten rid of the ppa from your software sources list? [21:42] ok i have atheos wireless card and i can not connect to it in ubuntu its says its disabled how do i enable it like i do in windows [21:42] onetinsoldier: Yes. [21:42] duffydack, that seemed to fix this :) [21:42] Daniturn3: Flick the switch on your laptop. [21:42] I have lucid running on a desktop and a netbook. I am trying to setup ssh so I can access my desktop from my netbook. i am following https://help.ubuntu.com/9.04/serverguide/C/openssh-server.html . when i attempt to do ssh-copy-id i get an error message that the connection was refused on port 22. what am i missing? [21:42] Daniturn3: Does the light for the switch work? [21:42] i dont flick a switch on my laptop [21:42] vistakiller: cat /proc/sys/vm/laptop_mode [21:42] x_: ok. is the original .deb still in your /ver/cache/apt/archive directory? [21:42] Sigmab, is it open on the netbook? [21:42] in lucid i setup a line in fstab to automount a seperate ntfs partition on boot. which it does. but i told it to set me as the owner with full read/write support. but after unmounting, editing fstab. adding /media/files with me as owner and chmod 777. then running sudo mount -a, root is still the owner and I am unable to edit the files on that partition [21:42] permission denied to the sudo bash -c "echo 1 >/proc/sys/vm/laptop_mode [21:43] Daniturn3: restart the computer [21:43] x_: /VAR* [21:43] ozzy2444: do you meant the panel at the bottom? [21:43] colorlessprism, for the disabled one it says "network UNCLAIMED" and it doesn't show any driver or additional details like it did before - for the dongle it shows all the details and the sky2 driver - it seems we disabled it successfully [21:43] if you have a firewalled you may have that port blocked [21:43] *sudo bash -c "echo 1 >/proc/sys/vm/laptop_mode"" [21:43] clrg, i only return not 0 when on battery power [21:43] i press Fn + F1 in wondows and my wireless status option comes on [21:43] wait to say what i have done until now [21:43] x_: /var/cache/apt/archives ...sorry [21:43] colorlessprism, perhaps just a problem with that dongle? [21:43] Daniturn3: Does that turn the card on and off? [21:43] how do I override the killswitch for my wireless card? [21:43] sigmab3ta: Have you started the ssh server? How about ps -ef | grep sshd [21:43] what do u mean the card turn on and off [21:43] baz_, i would think so, was the dongle pluged in on startup? [21:44] clrg: on the netbook or on the desktop? [21:44] Daniturn3: You know how some laptops have a switch that turn the card on and off? Does that button combo do the same thing? [21:44] colorlessprism: That the way it should be. [21:44] federico_:what does iptables -L say [21:44] Sig, netbook [21:44] sigmab3ta: On the machine you want to connect to [21:44] Daniturn3: In any event I have a strong hunch that restarting the computer will make the wireless work. [21:44] yes it does well on windows but ubuntu it does nothin [21:44] lucid doesn't hibernate on my compaq-nx7000 laptop [21:44] colorlessprism, yeah i tried that, plugging it before boot, not plugging it, plugging then unplugging, turning switch on and off, with reboots, etc. [21:44] guntbert, yeah kinda, when I minimize the windows disappear down towards the trash can. I have been just alt+tab to get back and forth [21:44] Daniturn3: You need to load the module but I doubt either one of us knows the module name so we can't run the command. If you restart the computer the module will be loaded. [21:45] i try to edit the /proc/sys/vm/laptop_mode with gedit but when i try to save it i have permission denied with root user. I try to go to root terminal and i have the same thing. I try to give this echo 5 | sudo tee /proc/sys/vm/laptop_mode . It works only until to try to reboot then again the command cat /proc/sys/vm/laptop_mode returns 0 [21:45] baz_, lol ok check here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessCardsSupported [21:45] ozzy2444: Add window list to your panel.

[21:46] vistakiller: Sorry didn't see that before [21:46] arleslie i know the drill, patience young padawan ;) [21:46] x_: you still here? [21:46] Daniturn3: Modules are the linux equivalent of drivers. [21:46] clrg: it is running on both [21:46] Alphos, lol I was just saying hi back [21:46] clrg, i installed laptop-tools from the software center and it accomplished what your trying to do for him [21:46] onetinsoldier: cache is clear. [21:46] Anyone recommends Chrome over Firefox on ubuntu ? [21:46] when clicking on a link, for example in xchat or thunderbird, the link is opened in ffox [21:46] so i need modules for my wireless card [21:46] Daniturn3: You can load them by running "sudo modprobe " but we don't know the module name so we can't do this. [21:46] I need pointer to karmic pulse configuration, thankyou [21:46] bn2knowitall: it's running on both [21:46] ozzy2444: Right-click on your lower panel, where the windows should minimize to. Right-click on it, select add to panel, and then select window list. [21:46] federico_:have you done a iptables -F [21:46] chrom has has some issues lately [21:46] but the ffox window doesn't come on top [21:46] but i like it [21:46] faster [21:46] colorlessprism, hehe, well that was easy, its not supported [21:46] would i need a linux version of launch manager [21:46] i cant set the netbook to laptop mode on. Is this a bug? Do i have to report it to launchpad? The strange is that bug is in a netbook edition and there the life battery is very important thing [21:47] Hello, guys I use Kubuntu and I upgraded to version 10.4 but I had many problems so I decided to update it again, so I created a partition (before I used the entire disk) and the partition I installed the new 10.04 and I transferred my data from a partition (the old) to another (the new one) now I need to delete the old partition and reunify the disc, as I do without losing new data on the partition? [21:47] still haven't figured a way to alter that behaviour, i just hope it's not a bug... [21:47] baz_, im sorry man, i should have had you check first [21:47] x_: ok, just go here and down at the bottom left under where it says 'Architecture' you can download the lucid plymouth .deb [21:47] clrg: scratch that it is not running on the netbook [21:47] Daniturn3: Are you talking to me?

How do I restore audio to firefox 3.6.3 flash? video works fine, but not audio. I tried updating to APT on the adobe website, and that worked, until I rebooted my machine. Then it stopped. Any ideas? [21:47] clrg: but i would think that's not the problem [21:47] clrg, awesome! Thanks, I'm out! [21:47] what is the name of the login screen application ? [21:47] sigmab3ta: Have you tried connecting with a 'normal' ssh command? [21:47] Daniturn3: Please being your statements with my name or personal message me. [21:47] baz_, i would google it [21:47] ozzy2444: You're welcome. [21:48] clrg: what would be a 'normal' command? [21:48] any ide from anyone what i have to do? [21:48] colorlessprism, yeah i'll do a bit more of that, thanks agian for the help tho [21:48] baz_, good luck man, i hope it works out [21:48] x_: download that then you can try and install it on command line and see what happens [21:48] edbian: would i need ubuntu version of launch manager because thats what windows needs to be able to use Fn + F1 [21:48] nvm, behaviour back to normal now after quitting ffox... still kinda disturbing though [21:48] sigmab3ta: Something like ssh -l username mytargetcomputer [21:48] nighty :) [21:48] baz_, o gtg take it easy [21:48] colorlessprism, u2 [21:49] Daniturn3: Ubuntu should be able to use your wifi without any outside software like that. === Fluxbox is now known as asdklad === asdklad is now known as fluxbox [21:49] My wireless card is disable due to the killswitch and I've toggled my killswitch but nothing has changed, is there a way I can override it?

Goodluck. [21:50] HOUbutu: He's not a person ;) [21:50] i know that [21:51] sigmab3ta: Then your ssh servers are working perfectly fine. I'll quickly check the tutorial you are following, hold on a sec [21:51] That's a lot of people [21:51] Dan: what verion are you running?

[21:54] clrg: good thing they made a note of that in the howto... [21:55] sigmab3ta: I guess the problem was that there existed no .ssh directory on the target machine. Once you connect to another box, the host key is saved in .ssh/known_hosts, so the directory is created automatically, enabling ssh-copy-id to work. [21:55] sigmab3ta: I'm glad I could help you anyway. [21:55] x_: roger... download that from website. if you just go to http://packages.ubuntu.com/ then you can do a search on package name. then click on the 'lucid' link and it'll take you to the page where you can download the .deb file [21:55] hello, I don't know what I've done and the volume control icon on the notification bar went away, I tried to add it but it's not listed , any clue ? [21:56] hey should i file a bug for this: when I switch off wireless using the switch on my laptop, ubuntu completely disables wireless in the OS so when I plug in my wireless usb dongle, ubuntu still has all wireless disabled [21:56] * clrg wishes everyone a pleasant evening. [21:57] x_: so, in other words... download the .deb for the 'libplymouth2' for standard lucid from there [21:57] hi what is the latest full final release of ubuntu [21:57] onetinsoldier: Thanks! I'm trying that right now.

The command cat /proc/sys/vm/laptop_mode [21:58] retuns 0 that it means laptop-mode off. I try to edit this file with gedit, nano, with root user, in root terminal in safe mode but always it say permision denied. I try to give the command echo 5 | sudo tee /proc/sys/vm/laptop_mode. It works until the reboot then again the command cat /proc/sys/vm/laptop_mode gives 0. The questions is. Is that a bug? Do i have to bug report it to launchpad?

[23:04] What should I do now that all my wine programs return "err:process:start_wineboot failed to start wineboot, err 11" [23:05] VCoolio: The menu thing.. I am trying to make Teamspeak 3 into my menu so I don't have to keep going to the root folder to start it. [23:05] Hans_Henrik: sounds like a bug to me, did you find out why it didn't start? [23:05] ultraparadigm: try uninstalling and re-installing it, it seemed to work on my computer and kept all my programs [23:05] jrib: nope. and i will have no physical access to it for about a week [23:05] Nitro: when I do panel shortbuts, I have to give full path names [23:05] well with out the driver installed system works great but if I install and activate the driver system gets real flaky video flashes snow and eventually system lockup [23:05] Hans_Henrik: are other services running? [23:05] travs: JEOS is streamlined as a virtualization guest... and on reason that you can't install vmware tools is that you have no X applications on that server, so no mouse pointer or X-server integration neede or possible [23:05] Is there any Theme for compiz with Matrix look? dynamic Wallpaper and so on?? [23:06] jrib: yeah, at least the apache web server [23:06] Hans_Henrik: strange [23:06] Nitro: if you normally go there in a file manager and click the file, do as ChogyDan said, enter /full/path/to/file as command [23:06] lee_ Thanks, I will try that. Do I need to remove any configuration files or anything? [23:06] I installed ack (http://betterthangrep.com/) on my machine but when I call "ack something" it gives me a usage guidelines of another program. "ack v1.39 Copyright 1993,94 Ogasawara Hiroyuki (COR.)". How Do I uninstall the one I don't want and keep the one I do? Or how do I make "ack" refer to the search tool? [23:06] Owned. [23:07] ultraparadigm: nope, just go to the terminal and type: sudo apt-get autoremove wine [23:07] Nitro chown maybe? [23:07] Hello, could someone help me out please? I'm kinda new to UNIX systems and Ubuntu and I'm trying to connect a fresh install of 10.04 to the internet through Wireless (But it's a Broadcom card and I've seen that these cards in particular have some troubles with the controllers) [23:07] I do not use Bluetooth for anything, can that package be removed without any system instabilities? [23:07] and install it the same way: sudo apt-get install wine [23:07] DIL: What? [23:07] mattalexx: how did you install it?

You probably want ack-grep [23:09] jrib, But it ended up inxstalling another packs than the one I want [23:09] ChogyDan: Let me check. [23:09] Another package called ack. [23:09] Hans_Henrik: what do u wanna do? [23:09] Nitro: normally you just click the file in nautilus or another file manager?

Is there any way to install a Lexmark X4550 printer on Ubuntu 10.04? [23:11] I can't believe I can't find the answer to this in the forums-- how do I check CompactFlash card for errors. Will fsck work? If so, what options do I use? [23:12] Hi, when installing ttf-mscorefonts, shouldn't that give me tahoma? [23:12] hrm... nvm [23:12] dan_: unfortunatly no, you can share it cfrom a windows machine... buy epson, or dell, or hp printers... they work w/linux [23:12] dan_: http://www.lmgtfy.com/?q=lexmark+X4550+ubuntu [23:13] shawnboy: I _think_ fsck just checks the file system which checks the card indirectly. There might be a program called badblocks that checks more directly [23:13] stefg: that kinda link is not useful here [23:13] mickster04: no? [23:13] dan_: lexmark is one of those companies that refuse to make the world a better place by supporting open source, buy something else [23:14] stefg: no, either give them a link you found on google, saying that you found it on google, or tell them direct...botty may also be able to help... [23:14] VCoolio: HP P100X printers are like WinModems [23:14] ChogyDan, when I do fsck /dev/sdb1 it just returns filesystem type, # of files, and # of clusters.

[23:15] |Patch|: what other way should be more helpful? just move the stuff over there once added or [23:15] |Patch|: i think u could edit the files that control your panel, some kind of panel config, but add to panel is by far easier [23:15] !restorepanels | |Patch| [23:15] stefg: I already did that.

[23:18] <|Patch|> but i lost all of my other apps.. but that not a big problem [23:18] micky_: for a 64bit architecture yes [23:18] VCoolio: Call support and piss on them some. I think that companies without brains should be shot on sight. Perhaps even BP :) [23:18] Awesome thanks guys, tried installing the normal on my big screen TV but I get no signal [23:18] micky_: I think that is hold Shift , but I am not certain.

[23:19] I'm planning to install Win7 and Ubuntu 10.04 on my laptop. Is it doable to have a common partition for Ubuntu home folder and Windows docs and settings for my user? [23:20] I updraded from the last version, but alot of things we not workign correctly, so I went for a clean install but had that problem [23:20] Irok: make a home partition using ntfs, and mayb [23:20] does anyone know how to get transparent windows like youd find on kde4?.. where the entire window, background of the window, borders etc are translucent? [23:20] Irok: but i doubt it can do both win and ubuntu settings [23:20] VCoolio: I know what i want and i can pay for it. If i see injustice on behalf of the buyer ima gonna git maddox! [23:21] micky_: i'd use the 32 bit version / better support, more options ... thatss i386 [23:21] justin22885: That would be Eye Candy [23:21] Hell, im in the bmood [23:21] Irok: I would not recommend it.. You could use NTFS probably, but Linux likes their ext4 much more [23:21] Irok: windows uses ntfs, I wouldn't recommend using that all the time; but yeah, symlink it or edit ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs or use mount --bind [23:21] Vigo, am I missing something? That thread is about something called Teamspeak 3. I found nothing about CompactFlash card checking. [23:21] Really? [23:21] I'd like to get to use all my mrmory [23:21] memory* [23:21] does anyone know how to set the resolution and disable my second monitor (TV) on the login screen? When my TV is connected I get a 640*480 resolution which looks really bad on my monitor which handles 1920xx1200. [23:22] running VMWare and such [23:22] shawnboy: Whoops, two many replies. one moment I will fix it... [23:22] Irok: Just use a partition for data/documents and mount it in Ubuntu [NTFS], and use it on both OSes. I do this, as well as using Dropbox on both [23:22] VCoolio: Ok, with that setup I need the following partitions: Windows, Ubuntu, /home, documents and settings, right? I then symlink between /home and Docs/settings?

[23:24] i mean my windows effects from a theme i installed for emerald [23:24] UK [23:24] <|Patch|> got another problem: xchat can't connect to a bnc server.. the server is ok. other people can connect to my bnc. but i try to connect and after a good start i always get the message Disconnected (Remote host closed socket). [23:24] Thanks, Vigo [23:24] CaptinDave: merseyside? [23:24] how do i force my ubuntu machine to boot from the dvd instead of the hdd? [23:24] katsuru: uninstall emerald and the effects should go along with it [23:24] katsuru : Just remove the emerald package with synaptic [23:24] greetingsmick [23:25] Do you think if I install with the normal i386 I wont have the no signal problem, mabie I sould get the alt just to be safe [23:25] leeí am uninstalling now lets see [23:25] can i get help starting a server? [23:25] i`m in Manchester..Mick [23:25] katsuru: do metacity --replace also or after removing emerald you have no borders at all maybe [23:25] micky_: d u have a 64bit machine? ive found my 64bit machines are generally faster with ubuntu [23:26] linux_is_my_hero: usually that is a bios setting (some bois use F12 or F11 to select boot device) [23:26] I have an I7 920 and 12GB of memory [23:26] I have a Celeron D computer which wants an i686-compatible OS - is there a way of installing Ubuntu Server on this machine? [23:26] I've never tried emerald, but is it similar to compiz? [23:26] carlll: starting a service, or setting up a server? [23:26] i have the server on my ubuntu computer [23:26] how do i get the vertical voluem control back? :/ [23:26] linux_is_my_hero: on my system, i go into my BIOS and set it to boot from dvd drive first rather than hdd first [23:26] I run windows7 and ubuntu on the multiboot [23:26] katsuri : you should probably log out and back in... or hit ALT+F2 and type " metacity --replace " like VCoolio says... [23:26] but it was mainly set for windows [23:26] micky_: the i7 is 64-bit :-) and nice computer ;-) [23:26] hi, i have a ubuntu 10.04 installed as my primary system. I have also installed it on a virtual machine for the purposes of compiling a library. My virtual machine boots (practically) instantly, but my full install takes quite a bit longer, particularly between the login and the time the gnome toolbars are loaded. Why? [23:26] Wicet: sure... plain vanilla ubuntu server 32bit [23:26] My ubuntu boots up in 7 secs. 64 bit is a waste if you got 32 bit with PAE enabled [23:26] micky_: you need that memory for playin solitaire? [23:27] VCoolio, that helped Thank you ! , i still had the modified windows after uninstalling Emerald, but now the UI is back to normal with that ;) thanks mate [23:27] Is there an easy way I can configure my terminal so if the path it's currently on is really long, it only displays the last couple folders? ie /some/really/long/path/here$ becomes .../path/here$ [23:27] i have [23:27] carlll: what server? Apache? Sql [23:27] I run VMware, and I play alot of games, I like to keep my wow running and mabie go play another game as well, [23:27] CaptinDave: anyway, if you haveremoved it you may need to restore it... [23:27] Jon--: look into bash profile editing [23:27] its a game called MineCraft [23:27] easy way, probably not [23:27] katsuru: you would have noticed once you logged out and in again... but no problem now [23:28] reinstall 10.04 you mean?

[23:28] stefg, basic SSH - IRC and stuff [23:28] Jon--: make a two-line prompt, first line the path, second the prompt you like [23:28] not Xubuntu or Lubuntu, please [23:28] Is it possible to disable the 2. monitor for the Login-screen? [23:28] I see there is a lot of talk but can anyone help me with ubuntu 10.04 regarding video playback problems ? I have VLC installed but sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn`t. What could be the problem ? [23:28] Beyecixramd: use ubuntu with whatever lightweight apps you want [23:28] Beyecixramd, slackware [23:29] VCoolio, i enabled the Extra effects and my windows are there again o.O [23:29] <|Patch|> got another problem: xchat can't connect to a bnc server.. the server is ok. other people can connect to my bnc. but i try to connect and after a good start i always get the message Disconnected (Remote host closed socket). this not connecting begun after upgrade [23:29] Adrian11:vlc does give error reports [23:29] can anyone here tell me what Xubuntu's specialty area is? [23:29] !minimal | Beyecixramd [23:29] test34: is it easy for beginners? [23:29] Beyecixramd: 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 [23:29] Cant 64bit Ubuntu run most 32BIT ? [23:29] Beyecixramd: lightweight distributions cannot be lightweight [23:29] Adrian11: that's really not enough info to dianose a problem :) [23:29] Beyecixramd, yes.. and you do learn alot [23:29] user friendly* [23:29] VCoolio: How? I don't see this in Edit -> Profile preferences [23:29] lee : It runs XFCE - windowmanager instead of Gnome... [23:29] hmmm... for lightness i meant RAM usage, not harddisk usage [23:29] jorn: thanks [23:29] Well i don`t know what can i say more? Once it works the other times it shows only black screen with the tone [23:29] "sudo su mysql" doesn't work, any suggestions? [23:29] Jon--: hang on, I had one [23:29] the minimal installation won't fix anything [23:30] carlll: http://www.worldofminecraft.com/node/830 howto [23:30] Wicet: maybe look at hardy... 8.04.3 (or 4?) lucid isn't matured yet, and for that old box you won't need the latest and greatest kernel [23:30] Beyecixramd: did you read the statement I made before that? [23:30] there are no errors [23:30] tar-: what are yu trying to do [23:30] ok i cant get rid of a theme i installed for Emerald !? o.O [23:30] GeekSquid: not the client the server [23:30] stefg, great - I check out 8.04 then [23:30] katsuru : tried logging out and back in? [23:30] lee : no prob :) [23:30] Jorn i will [23:30] Beyecixramd, if it use little hard disk it will probably use little ram [23:30] jrib: for that, i would go with Arch or Gentoo. What i need is a well supported distro, with cool tools that fit the DE and are lightweight [23:30] katsuru: if that doesn't work try restarting your computer [23:31] ubuntu 10.04 will open and allow me to browse software but will not allow installation, when I click install nothing happens. My synaptic package manager is working and will install. I don't even know where to begin looking for this. [23:31] Beyecixramd, try #linux [23:31] Beyecixramd: this might not be appreciated, but even a trimmed down ubuntu doesn't seem to compete with light weight distros (RAM wise) like puppy linux or Tiny Core Linux [23:31] mickster04: I'm trying to run the mysql_secure_installation script, but keep getting a permission denied error. which led me to try finding the user mysql's home directory (where i suppose it will try to write the tmp-files for my.cnf, and the easiest way i know how to find it is su it and do a cd) [23:31] Wicet: http://releases.ubuntu.com/8.04.4/ubuntu-8.04.4-server-i386.iso would be the one [23:31] underdev: see? that's what i was looking for. Puppy Linux is my answer :) [23:31] Beyecixramd: if you are really tight on ram, you might want to check out "lucid puppy", which uses the lucid debs [23:32] Jon--: check my second post here http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=51818&p=4 [23:32] lu [23:32] underdev: oooh, cool :) thanks [23:32] Augh [23:32] Beyecixramd: well, you are asking on a ubuntu channel :) [23:32] Jon--: my experience with that is pretty limited but i'd imagine you need to edit the file manually ja [23:32] mickster04: anyways.. i should be able to do a sudo su mysql when the account exists [23:32] corrected ubuntu 10.04 Software center will open and allow me to browse software but will not allow installation, when I click install nothing happens. My synaptic package manager is working and will install. I don't even know where to begin looking for this. [23:32] tim: ah, yes. I had the same problem the first time I upgraded to 10.04. What worked for me was to go to System>>Administration>>Users and Groups, and I changed my settings from custom to administrator and restarted my computer [23:32] !panels | CaptinDave [23:32] CaptinDave: To reset the gnome panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » [23:32] I'm trying to set up my box here as a firewall/router [23:32] VCoolio: I found this: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1616678/bash-pwd-shortening search for "~/.bashrc" and you'll find the relevant post.

I have also installed it on a virtual machine for the purposes of compiling a library. My virtual machine boots (practically) instantly, but my full install takes quite a bit longer, particularly between the login and the time the gnome toolbars are loaded. Why? [23:33] Irok: check out applications > internet > remote desktop viewer [23:33] I can ping all the computers on the network, but I can't browse [23:33] annnd... Mepis would be OK too... the only problem is that it uses KDE3... and that stuff... [23:33] Jon--: cool, still, think about a two-line prompt, it's geeky ;) [23:33] Well, I can browse from the server, but no other computer [23:33] I am sorry to bother here but i have one more problem that is strange on Ubuntu 10.04. I have HP Pavilion and by wireless the internet goes a lot slower that usual and the button on the laptop(blue and red) that indicates ON and OFF is blinking non-stop. Does anyone know what could be the problem ? [23:33] is there any chance to get a Ubuntu heart on top of Mepis? [23:33] Beyecixramd: honestly, distributions only differ as far as package management goes. You said you wanted something like ubuntu, so I'm assuming you like apt. Now you probably have some favorite lightweight packages that you really like. Install ubuntu minimal (yay apt!), then install the programs you like. Then you'll have a lightweight, well-supported, apt-based system. This is what I do anyway... [23:33] I want to get properties (freespace in particular) on my 2nd HD. when I go to computer and re-click>properties on the drive it tells me nothing - unknown [23:34] with the software center, and stuff...

[23:38] lee_: but there are no special dev distros of ubuntu afaik [23:38] lee_: for a programmer i recommend Fedora for the easy way, Arch for the fast way and Gentoo for the hardcore linux-loving way [23:38] It's like the routing isn't turned on [23:38] Beyecixramd: right, but that 'dedicated machine' can be virtual.... that' how i run my home server. firewall inside VM, file- /mailserver on the host [23:38] lee_: ubuntu is an excellent dev platform [23:38] Anyone else have a problem with colors being wrong when watching a movie EX people are blue.

[23:43] yourmghq: 1 out for my 4 wireless nics don't work [23:44] Well it worked in ubuntu 9 series [23:44] tim : that is weird... Try opening a terminal and paste this into it : " sudo users-admin " [23:44] jorn: also may be related or un related, my software center does the same thing I see the programs click to install but nothing happens, not even the password box. However my synaptic package manager does work, just like it is supposed to.

[23:45] nobody can help get the old vertical volume controls back ? :( [23:46] so what do you think underdev [23:46] lee_ I removed wine with that command, yet I can still run the wine command. Apt get tells me that wine is gone though. Might there be more than one wine installed?

[23:49] Ok, in order to route, I have to add rules to something called iptabes? [23:49] Stonekeeper: "apt-cache depends openvpn" Will likely tell you, but why are you not installing via repositories directly? [23:49] hey how can i get my webcam to work on my 64-bit and im running 10.04 [23:50] !firewall | halkun [23:50] halkun: Ubuntu, like any other Linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW), or 'iptables' (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo). GUI frontends such as Firestarter/Gufw (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE) also exist.
