| krazykrivda | not using emerald.. not to my knowledge alien260 .. i'm in gnome.. | 00:00 |
| VCoolio | Narya: compiz is the fancy window manager that you get when you set visual effects; devilspie is a small app that you can use to specify what the wm needs to do with a new window | 00:00 |
| bodom | japanfred: most probably it's a routing issue then | 00:00 |
| Maarten | alien260: The default client seems to have RDPv5 only..... hence the question, which client I should install ;) | 00:00 |
| japanfred | however, if i reboot the server, it works! | 00:00 |
| krabador | ho can i set default sound card in lucid? | 00:00 |
| krabador | nobody? | 00:00 |
| Don9307 | DDwi: I just tried gpg: --recd-keys 7AE26941 and was able to import that key to my keyring in under 1 second. | 00:00 |
| Stereocaulon | krabador, you have multiple sound cards? | 00:00 |
| hmw | krazykrivda: metacity ..replace perhaps? also, try installing fusion-icon | 00:00 |
| DDwi | hm | 00:00 |
| hmw | krazykrivda: metacity --replace sorry | 00:00 |
| * Fandekasp_ has solved his problem ... it was the client ~/.ssh/known_hosts who was fucked, I've cleaned it and now my connexion works | 00:01 | |
| krabador | Stereocaulon, yes, lucid have as default the one i can't use | 00:01 |
| Narya | Vcoolio: ok so I dont think I have compiz. Ill use the second one :) | 00:01 |
| UltraParadigm | Well, I guess I'm just going to stop using wine. Only native programs | 00:01 |
| krazykrivda | hmw thank you! that worked.. any idea how/why that would have happened.. all i did was reboot | 00:01 |
| Fandekasp_ | oops sorry | 00:01 |
| bodom | japanfred: is routing enabled? cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward | 00:01 |
| UltraParadigm | Wine keeps not working, and now is broken all together. And I can't fix it like humpty dumpty | 00:01 |
| hmw | i have no idea, I just saw "emerald --replace" and knew you have Gnome ;-) | 00:01 |
| japanfred | bodom, on the host? | 00:01 |
| krabador | Stereocaulon, with the command less /proc/asound/modules | 00:02 |
| VCoolio | Narya: install devilspie, then create a ~/.devilspie/anything.ds file in which you specify what to do with the terminal window; google for syntax | 00:02 |
| krazykrivda | haha! hmw to the rescue again | 00:02 |
| Stereocaulon | krabador, does the other soundcard register when you execute lspci? If you are not sure, please pastebin the output of that command | 00:02 |
| krabador | Stereocaulon, i can see the one i want use is the 2 | 00:02 |
| Narya | Vcoolio: thank you | 00:02 |
| japanfred | bodom, on the host it is, yes | 00:02 |
| bcardarella | So I have a binary in a directory that I'm explicitly setting in .bashrc When I echo $PATH I see that directory has the highest priority but when I call the binary Ubuntu tells me that I need to install it with apt-get | 00:02 |
| bcardarella | What am I doing wrong? | 00:02 |
| bcardarella | (I don't want to install with apt-get) | 00:02 |
| === jew_ is now known as MistaDizz | ||
| MistaDizz | Where are youuuu | 00:02 |
| krabador | Stereocaulon, no problem with lspci, i look it perfectly | 00:03 |
| bedwyr | MistaDizz, connection hiccup? | 00:03 |
| japanfred | bodom, i've just set 3 rules, and default to drop, now rebooting the server | 00:03 |
| krazykrivda | Pidgin, Miranda, other.. What is recommended by useres in here? | 00:03 |
| japanfred | bodom, when saving, does it do a /etc/init.d/networking restart? | 00:03 |
| CaptainTrek | krazykrivda, for what? | 00:03 |
| bodom | japanfred: mhh... it makes no sense: they're no DROP rules on firewall | 00:03 |
| krabador | Stereocaulon, is that : Ensoniq ES1371 [AudioPCI-97] (rev 06) | 00:03 |
| gbear14275 | I can't play these videos with sound and I don't know why. I have tried a couple things to get the sound working but no luck... Could someone please help me troubleshoot. http://www.apple.com/getamac/ads/ | 00:03 |
| krazykrivda | CaptainTrek: genereal messneger | 00:03 |
| Stereocaulon | krabador, you can set the default card per sound server. Alsa would be a good place to start there. | 00:03 |
| krabador | Stereocaulon, but isn't the default | 00:04 |
| CaptainTrek | krazykrivda, i use pidgin, but read this: | 00:04 |
| gbear14275 | on lucid, have medibuntu repos installed and the ffmpeg pacakges installed (I think) | 00:04 |
| CaptainTrek | !best > krazykrivda | 00:04 |
| ubottu | krazykrivda, please see my private message | 00:04 |
| japanfred | bodom, wait for the physical box to come back, and i'll pastebin the iptables output now, with default action of drop on incoming | 00:04 |
| krazykrivda | ha CaptainTrek i didn't ask for best.. i asked for what users in here recommend | 00:04 |
| Don9307 | #quit | 00:04 |
| BluesKaj | krabador, if you have 2 soundcards , you need to set it the bios peripherals by disabling the card you don't want to use | 00:04 |
| CaptainTrek | just thought i'd mention it, krazykrivda :) | 00:05 |
| VCoolio | Narya: here you have an example to place firefox on workspace 2, you can edit that http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/2007/07/25/how-to-set-default-workspace-size-and-window-effects-in-gnome/ | 00:05 |
| krazykrivda | well thank you :-).. | 00:05 |
| gbear14275 | anyone able to test that site at least to see if their audio works? http://www.apple.com/getamac/ads/ | 00:05 |
| CaptainTrek | krazykrivda: read the next PM | 00:05 |
| krabador | BluesKaj, yes, when i modified alsa.conf in karmic, i can use the one i want | 00:05 |
| Stereocaulon | krabador, Hey, used to have an Ensoniq myself...about a year ago I fiddled with my SBLive! and the onboard ensoniq chip..Now how did I do that again? Let me think a bit... | 00:06 |
| krazykrivda | For those using skyp.. how do I prevent getting gray text on gray background for the popup menus | 00:06 |
| gbear14275 | anyone able to test this site for me please? http://www.apple.com/getamac/ads/ | 00:06 |
| krabador | BluesKaj, i don't want think that i cant set a thing like that with lucid | 00:06 |
| gbear14275 | trying to figure out if its just me or what... | 00:07 |
| === jew_ is now known as MistaDizz | ||
| bedwyr | gbear14275, i have sound here | 00:07 |
| MistaDizz | bedwyr: it didnt work | 00:07 |
| japanfred | bodom, now i can ping 8.8.8.8 after a main server reboot, http://pastebin.com/PQ0LUduH | 00:07 |
| gbear14275 | thanks bedwyr you on lucid? | 00:07 |
| bedwyr | MistaDizz, still not shortcuts in the games menu? | 00:07 |
| Stevinko | anyone running an laptop with ATI gpu inside? :( | 00:07 |
| MistaDizz | bedwyr: nope =/ | 00:07 |
| hmw | krazykrivda: try System / Preferences / Appearance / Theme / ClearLooks | 00:07 |
| bedwyr | gbear14275, ah no... not yet, going there in about an hour. didn't read about that >.< | 00:07 |
| BluesKaj | krabador, well dunno for sure , but it used to work | 00:08 |
| bedwyr | gbear14275, my bad, sorry! | 00:08 |
| gbear14275 | no problem... helps narrow the problem still. Thanks bedwyr | 00:08 |
| Narya | VCoolio: what is the application name of a terminal that is launched by my launcher? | 00:08 |
| TnEt | Hi all.... | 00:08 |
| Narya | VCoolio, Is it whatever I called the launcher? | 00:08 |
| TnEt | anyone having issues with 10.04 freezing? | 00:08 |
| bedwyr | gbear14275, welcome. i'll give it a whirl once i've upgraded | 00:08 |
| gbear14275 | anyone on lucid able to help me? just go to this site tell me if the sound plays on the videos: http://www.apple.com/getamac/ads/ | 00:08 |
| bodom | japanfred: mhhh... consider adding iptables -I INPUT 1 -m state --state ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT | 00:08 |
| bedwyr | MistaDizz, hm... open up a terminal window | 00:09 |
| japanfred | bodom, what would that do? | 00:09 |
| === ogen is now known as tripelb | ||
| VCoolio | Narya: no, and you can use other stuff than the name too; but to xprop, click the terminal window and find out | 00:09 |
| Stereocaulon | krabador, if you open alsamixer -c1 does that give you the channels you would expect to see for your ensoniq? | 00:09 |
| UltraParadigm | anyone what what it means when wine says: "Bad EXE format for C:\Program Files\Steam\steam.exe" | 00:09 |
| hmw | TnEt: can you login from another pc via ssh? then check, if only your GPU is locked up (quite likely) | 00:09 |
| bodom | japanfred: in a nuthshell, it will accept all replyes to packet sent from your hosts and related traffic (i.e. icmp port unreachable) | 00:09 |
| krabador | Stereocaulon, yes | 00:10 |
| TnEt | I probably could....this started happening when I installed updates....looks like there was a kernel update... | 00:10 |
| IdleOne | UltraParadigm: unless I am mistaken I believe you need to make the .exe executable | 00:10 |
| TnEt | was wondering if anyone else was having the same problem | 00:10 |
| VCoolio | Narya: xprop | grep "WM_WINDOW_ROLE\|WM_CLASS" && echo "WM_CLASS(STRING) = \"NAME\", \"CLASS\"" | 00:10 |
| bodom | japanfred: also, you can add a LOG rule at the end of INPUT chain to log packets that are being dropped | 00:11 |
| UltraParadigm | IdleOne: oh, how wierd. I was executable b4 that computer crashed that caused this. I'll check | 00:11 |
| Stereocaulon | krabador, OK, so everything is configured correctly *except* which card to pick as default...Well, it is a good starting point. | 00:11 |
| bodom | japanfred: iptables -A INPUT -j LOG | 00:11 |
| japanfred | bodom, let me just add those two, thanks | 00:11 |
| IdleOne | UltraParadigm: I noticed in Lucid (don't remeber if karmic did it also) but yeah exe is not +x by default anymore | 00:11 |
| Loshki | TnEt: what about booting the previous kernel to verify the problem is due to a kernel update? That would also be your workaround... | 00:12 |
| bodom | japanfred: it's a bit long, but it's worth reading if you are setting up a firewall: http://netfilter.org/documentation/HOWTO/packet-filtering-HOWTO.html | 00:12 |
| TnEt | Loshki: Good idea... | 00:12 |
| Narya | Vcoolio: spits out WM_CLASS(STRING) = "gnome-panel", "Gnome-panel" | 00:12 |
| Narya | WM_CLASS(STRING) = "NAME", "CLASS" | 00:12 |
| japanfred | bodom, definately give that a read! noticed the VirtualBox docs were really good yesterday! | 00:12 |
| Stereocaulon | krabador, this might work, at least for ALSA, but the instructions are pretty old: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-hardware-18/default-sound-card-in-ubuntu-564006/ | 00:12 |
| UltraParadigm | IdleOne: steam.exe is still +x | 00:12 |
| IdleOne | UltraParadigm: #winehq will be more helpful. | 00:13 |
| VCoolio | Narya: ?? you clicked the panel? | 00:13 |
| 30BAAL4YT | can someone help me with my sound, I seem to have lost sound | 00:13 |
| TnEt | what is the keyboard command to boot to a menu to choose the other kernel? | 00:13 |
| omar | i need a program to batch download album cover art for my mp3s, any suggestions? :) | 00:13 |
| Narya | Vcoolio: yep, the terminal window where my abcde is running | 00:13 |
| UltraParadigm | IdleOne: One would think. lol | 00:13 |
| VCoolio | Narya: no, click inside the window | 00:13 |
| edbian | TnEt, Press escape at the right time to get a grub menu | 00:14 |

| Maarten | Has anyone seen this behaviour? Monitor 1 is a 1440x900 laptop screen on a docking station, Monitor 2 is a 1980x1200 screen right next to it. With multi monitor configured, when I push the mouse cursor to the top of the screen of monitor 1, it "dissappears", as if it has an invisible area to make up between the 1440 and the 1980, as if it expects both monitors to be equal..... is that fixable? | 00:14 |
| UltraParadigm | I am asking there too, but you guys are way smarter. or atleast awake. lol | 00:14 |
| jordan_ | Does anyone here know if you are able to play .JAD games on Ubuntu? If so what program would I need? | 00:14 |
| japanfred | bodom, how can i make those rules stick? after i added those, i added a rule in webmin, and it wiped them out | 00:14 |
| Loshki | TnEt: in later versions, it's the SHIFT key, not ESC... | 00:15 |

| Blaze__ | is there a way to change the speed of compiz animations?? | 00:15 |
| Narya | Vcoolio: wait | 00:15 |
| edbian | Blaze__, yes, get ccsm | 00:15 |
| Narya | Vcoolio: WM_WINDOW_ROLE(STRING) = "gnome-terminal-window-29786--942855013-1273532864" | 00:15 |

| bodom | japanfred: they are two ways: a) use iptables-save and iptables-restore (man iptables-save), b) put them in a bash script and run it in rc.local | 00:15 |
| Blaze__ | edbian: yes i have that | 00:15 |
| billybig1igger | hey all | 00:16 |
| bedwyr | Second time I try burning 10.4 and Brasero chokes at 94%... | 00:16 |
| Stereocaulon | krabador, ok, did you check out my last link? | 00:16 |
| Captindave | hi billy. | 00:16 |
| Blaze__ | edbian could you teach me where to change the speed | 00:16 |
| bedwyr | anyone has a clue? (and sorry for not putting that one the same line >.<) | 00:16 |
| edbian | Blaze__, Most of the plugins have a speed slider usually called time-step or something similar | 00:16 |
| VCoolio | Narya: that's it, use 'gnome-terminal' as name, or Gnome-terminal as class definition | 00:16 |
| josef_ | How strange! apt-get install python say python 2.5 is the newest version ... :-( | 00:16 |
| krabador | not, excuse me i restart for try a change | 00:16 |
| Loshki | bedwyr: I avoid brasero, as I find it buggy. Consider k3b instead, or use the command line to burn.... | 00:16 |
| Narya | Vcoolio: but wont it do it then when I open ANY terminal? | 00:17 |
| edbian | Blaze__, Animations -> Effects Settings -> Animation Time Step Do you see that? | 00:17 |
| bedwyr | Loshki, b-but! it's the first time it gives me trouble :'( it normally burn fine.... ad darnit. linky linky to cli burning, please? | 00:17 |
| Stereocaulon | Loshki, bedwyr : I second that, k3b looks much more mature. | 00:17 |
| VCoolio | Narya: you can open gnome-terminal maybe using a specific name, then use that name, read 'man gnome-terminal' at least there are terminals that can do that | 00:18 |
| josef_ | 2 | 00:18 |
| Blaze__ | edbian, yes i see that let me try it | 00:18 |
| edbian | Blaze__, Do you understand what it's changing? | 00:18 |
| Narya | VCoolio | 00:18 |
| bedwyr | Stereocaulon, I have actually had problems in the past with K3b... | 00:18 |
| Narya | VCoolio: Thanks | 00:18 |
| japanfred | bodom, ok cool, i piped it out to the file, so i now see all the rules in webmin, thanks | 00:18 |
| bodom | japanfred: yeo're welcome :=) | 00:19 |
| bedwyr | Stereocaulon, had to run it as root for it to burn properly... but then again that was with... 6.x or 7.x... | 00:19 |
| Stereocaulon | bedwyr, me too, but that was years ago. Specifically, it hung on the verification after burning | 00:19 |
| Blaze__ | edbian, its changing the speed right? | 00:19 |
| japanfred | bodom, still busted though! as soon as i clicked apply, i couldn't ping external | 00:19 |
| japanfred | bodom, then i do an /etc/init.d/networking restart on the guest, and i can't ping locally either | 00:20 |
| japanfred | bodom, i'm thinking, maybe the 'Apply' is killing the vnet0 adapter | 00:20 |
| 30BAAL4YT | can someone help me with my sound, it is no longer working | 00:20 |
| edbian | Blaze__, Yes but only of some of the effects. Specifically the animations of windows closing and opening and such | 00:20 |
| bedwyr | Stereocaulon, I can'T remember... and off i google for cli burning | 00:20 |
| bodom | japanfred: check iptables -L -v -n to see what "apply" changes | 00:20 |
| Stereocaulon | bedwyr, this article might you some unbiased advice on ISO burning: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto | 00:21 |
| Blaze__ | edbian, yes thank you that is what i was looking for | 00:21 |
| Loshki | bedwyr: I don't have a link, but I use: cdrecord -v -tao speed=40 dev=/dev/cdrom driveropts=burnfree -eject -data file.iso. Also, run an md5sum check on the iso before you burn.... | 00:21 |
| japanfred | that's the thing, the file is identical | 00:21 |
| edbian | Blaze__, No problem :) | 00:21 |
| japanfred | bodom, that's the thing, the file is identical | 00:21 |
| IdleOne | !sound | 30BAAL4YT | 00:21 |
| ubottu | 30BAAL4YT: If you're having problems with sound, click the Volume applet, then Sound Preferences, and check your Volume, Hardware, Input, and Output settings. 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. | 00:21 |
| japanfred | bodom, how would one apply the rules, from the command line? | 00:21 |
| Stereocaulon | bedwyr, sorry, this the link I was looking for: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CdDvd/Burning | 00:21 |
| voland | http://www.devbase.at/voip/yeaphone-comments.php#c2_121 here is patch - how can I apply it? | 00:22 |
| passingby | Is there any ubuntu related jobs in the market? Something at the entry level? | 00:22 |
| Stereocaulon | bedwyr, if I recall correctly, k3b uses wodim on the background | 00:22 |
| IdleOne | passingby: canonical.com | 00:22 |
| bedwyr | Loshki, Stereocaulon thanks and Loshki I MD5 the iso twice and it matches the one MD5SUMS :D | 00:22 |
| BluesKaj | passingby, try dell or hp | 00:23 |
| bodom | japanfred: mhhh ifconfig output changes? to insert rules from command lines you have to use iptables like I show you before | 00:23 |
| Stereocaulon | bedwyr, Yes <3 MD5 sums :-) | 00:23 |
| Rasputins_Cake | OK I acctidentally removed the volume control thing | 00:23 |
| Rasputins_Cake | How do I get it back? | 00:23 |
| japanfred | ok, but they take effect instantly? | 00:23 |
| passingby | IdleOne: the impression i gathered from the careers link was that only high level guys were needed. is there a hope for a newbie/fresher? | 00:23 |
| edbian | Rasputins_Cake, Right click the panel -> add to panel -> volume applet | 00:23 |
| japanfred | bodom, ok, but they take effect instantly? | 00:23 |
| Stereocaulon | Rasputins_Cake, just rightclick on the pannel and the applet again... | 00:24 |
| Loshki | bedwyr: ok, and make sure your cds are big enough to hold the iso (old blanks were only 650MB), or use a dvd for the burn instead... | 00:24 |
| Rasputins_Cake | K | 00:24 |
| vikasap | Hello all , I have a program which is bascially uses some simulation library. I cant use pthreads or some other thread library to speedup my code. Is there any way that the OS does this for me and runs the simulation program on multiple cores ? | 00:24 |
| Stereocaulon | Rasputins_Cake, pannel => panel | 00:24 |
| bedwyr | Stereocaulon, I know it's bad, but I never bother to MD5 anything... as I never had any download probs before | 00:24 |
| Snowe | hi, quick question, is it possible to change my username? or at least make the panel and everything show the personal name instead? :/ | 00:24 |
| b12core | Hi, how would I assign a keybinding_command a command involving 'make', where the makefile is the direction '~/_CORE/Melancholika'? | 00:24 |
| VCoolio | Narya: "gnome-terminal --class=Devilterm" then use Devilterm as class for devilspie; remember to run devilspie, add it to startup apps too | 00:24 |
| b12core | directory* | 00:24 |
| bedwyr | Loshki, well, I use Verbatim CD-RW DataLifePlus 700MB | 00:24 |
| === slide23 is now known as slide | ||
| edbian | Snowe, It is possible. Look at system -> admin -> users and groups | 00:25 |
| Stereocaulon | bedwyr, from an ubuntu install, you can always check the media from the menu, but that takes a lot of time, so I'd rather do it from a desktop environment instead | 00:25 |
| Rasputins_Cake | Can't see volume as an option | 00:25 |
| Loshki | bedwyr: Verbatim makes good media. Let us know how your cd burn goes... | 00:25 |
| Narya | Vcoolio: Im running abcde, so ill have to edit the conf file for that, but thank you! | 00:25 |
| Rasputins_Cake | In the add to panel thing | 00:25 |
| Snowe | edbian i tried that... i can change the personal name, but not the system username (aka the login name) | 00:26 |
| bedwyr | Loshki, will do, from the cli, 'cause Brasero realy is choking this time around :( | 00:26 |
| edbian | Snowe, Try editing /etc/passwd and changing it there. Then restart | 00:26 |
| Stereocaulon | Loshki, bedwyr , yes Verbatim is the only brand for DL DVD, but for singlelayer, Platinum gives good results and is quite cheap. | 00:26 |
| edbian | Snowe, Does that make sense? | 00:26 |
| Loshki | bedwyr: also, consider checking the md5sum on the actual *media* after you burn it: md5sum - < /dev/cdrom | 00:26 |
| Snowe | edbian sorry i didnt notice lucid swapped the name things around, umm.. my username is what i want as my login name, and what i want to show on my panel, but it uses the name created with the account instead.. (i upgraded from jaunty, if that helps) | 00:27 |
| japanfred | bodom, well well well | 00:28 |
| nvme | why is my kern.log and syslog file (/var/log) over 2gb ????? | 00:28 |
| bedwyr | Loshki, 10-4, Roger, Ack, etc... | 00:28 |
| edbian | Snowe, Do you know what /etc/passwd is? | 00:28 |
| Stereocaulon | nvme, try log rotation >:-) | 00:28 |
| japanfred | bodom, i just had a look in webmin, and told the module to just edit the file directly, asif it was doing a iptables command, thus never 'saving' the file | 00:28 |
| bodom | japanfred: yep, they are instant | 00:28 |
| nvme | Stereocaulon, whats that ? | 00:28 |
| Stereocaulon | !logrotation | 00:28 |
| bedwyr | Stereocaulon, I use CD-RW, I don't have DVD burning capability XD | 00:28 |
| === FrozenFire[alt] is now known as FrozenFire[work] | ||
| bodom | japanfred: sry, I'm not expert about webmin | 00:29 |
| japanfred | bodom, indeed, before, i had to click 'apply' which was clearly doing something else | 00:29 |
| sorenano | hi | 00:29 |
| Lachesis | Is there a way to change the username reported to an LPR printer in 10.04 LTS? My university controls queuing and quotas through the reported username. | 00:29 |
| japanfred | bodom, now i've told it to take instant effect, it's working a treat! | 00:29 |
| Stereocaulon | nvme, Log rotation allows you to specify how big or old logs get before they are recycled. | 00:29 |
| japanfred | bodom, so sorry to have wasted your time! | 00:29 |
| Blaze__ | edbian, could you help me enable the airplane animation, i cant find it under animations in ccsm | 00:29 |
| nvme | Stereocaulon, yeah i found the info, i like how the "janitor" thing didnt pick up on that | 00:30 |
| Semitones | help! I don't have a volume controller on my panel! | 00:30 |
| phillipsjk | nvme: logrotation is where you compress old logs and possible delete very old logs. Choosing extra debuging/verbsoity options can also increase logfile size. | 00:30 |
| edbian | Blaze__, "sudo apt-get install compiz-fusion-plugins-extra" | 00:30 |
| bodom | japanfred: I'm here to help, don't be sorry. :) | 00:30 |

| japanfred | bodom, well you have been a great help, think i'll file a bug with Webmin! | 00:31 |
| genii | Hm | 00:31 |
| genii | !webmin | 00:31 |
| ubottu | webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system. See !ebox instead. | 00:31 |

| daftykins | hmm, a friends getting this on boot with Lucid, from an alternate CD install 'BUG: soft lockup - CPU#0 stuck for 61s' | 00:32 |
| daftykins | any ideas? | 00:32 |
| phillipsjk | sc30317: the original quake is a classic :) | 00:32 |
| sc30317 | phillipsjk: I forgot to mention- it has to be in the repos | 00:32 |
| Loshki | bedwyr: that's 40x. I would expect cd-rw to run more slowly. speed=4 will give you 4x. Burning at half of whatever the rated speed for the disks is a reasonable compromise... | 00:33 |
| Stereocaulon | nvme, If you are sure that you did not have unwanted visitors, or if there is anything else worth preserving in the log, you can reset it to 0 bytes again. But you should do that ideally from a LiveCD session with sudo. | 00:33 |
| Narya | Vcoolio, I can't find a configuration in abcde that changes how it runs the terminal | 00:33 |
| sc30317 | quake would be a good choice, but it won't work | 00:33 |
| miked595 | anyone know what I can use to rotate iPhone video? I have read that avidemux and mencoder have stutter and audio sync issues | 00:33 |
| nvme | Stereocaulon, yeah i already reset them, this is a fresh VM install so nothing to note | 00:33 |
| bedwyr | Loshki, so even if disc says 4x only, 2x should work? | 00:33 |
| nvme | but how do i set a limit on them | 00:33 |
| nvme | is there a guide ? | 00:33 |
| edbian | sc30317, tremulous | 00:34 |
| === [J] is now known as juju2143 | ||
| Stereocaulon | nvme, just use your favorite search engine when searching for "ubuntu log rotation" | 00:34 |
| nvme | :P | 00:34 |
| japanfred | bodom, pretty sure :) thanks again mate, really appreciate the help! | 00:35 |
| Loshki | bedwyr: Frankly, I'm less experienced with cds, especially cd-rw's, as blank dvds are now so cheap I don't buy anything else. If it says 4x only, I would try 4x first. If you get errors, then you can try again at a slower speed.... | 00:35 |
| Stereocaulon | nvme, you can probably find options for it in /etc/syslog.conf | 00:35 |
| sc30317 | edbian: i've heard good things, ill give it a shot | 00:36 |

| Semitones | YES I FOUND OUT | 00:40 |
| bodom | japanfred: not stupid, but surely aggressive. It depends on wich grade of security/comfort you want to achieve with your firewall. More security=less comfort and vice-versa | 00:40 |
| Semitones | you have to add "indicator applet" | 00:40 |
| Stereocaulon | Semitones, good for you :-) | 00:40 |
| Semitones | now why would they call the volume slider "indicator applet?" that's friggin crazy! | 00:40 |
| edbian | Semitones, It's inside the indicator applet | 00:40 |
| Loshki | miked595: it may work for you, why not try avidemux on a small video? | 00:40 |
| edbian | Semitones, It's confusing for the network as well | 00:40 |
| Stereocaulon | Semitones, that's because the applet shows more than only the volume slider | 00:41 |
| b12core | Hello, what is the parameter for gnome-terminal for auto-executing commands: i.e. gnome-terminal -X "cd foo/bar; make", thanks in advance | 00:41 |
| Stereocaulon | b12core, try looking up .bashrc | 00:41 |
| Semitones | edbian, looks like they have some work to do on the UI -- maybe call it "Indicator Applet (Volume, Network, whatever)" | 00:41 |
| edbian | Semitones, Eh, it's just getting to know your way around I think | 00:42 |
| b12core | Stereocaulon: it's for a keybinding_command shortcut, I want to connect <Control>F9 with a make command | 00:42 |
| Semitones | edbian, that's all well and good for someone who already uses Ubuntu for a while, but it's discouraging for new users I think | 00:42 |

| EntityReborn | Where are installation scripts stored on live cds? | 00:43 |
| Stereocaulon | b12core, Oh that? You can set that up in your System => Preferences => Keyboard Shortcuts | 00:43 |
| b12core | make -I directory doesn't seem to work as a keybinding_command, I think perhaps linking a terminal to the make's usage may help work | 00:43 |

| Sherlock | how do I make the icons not purple in 10.04? | 00:44 |
| bedwyr | Sherlock, change iconset | 00:44 |
| EntityReborn | Sherlock, use a different icon set | 00:44 |
| Stereocaulon | b12core, why don't you write a little bash script for that? You could call it as an alias from bash. | 00:44 |
| b12core | Sherlock: go to System -> Preferences -> Appearance | 00:44 |
| bodom | japanfred: by default, /var/log/syslog or /var/log/messages, I can't clearly remember | 00:44 |
| Sherlock | ok.. | 00:44 |
| BalSak | when mounting points listed in fstab, the mount will only accept absolute paths, not relative | 00:44 |
| b12core | Stereocaulon: make's being an asshole in bash scripts. I can, however, get it working in terminals. | 00:45 |

| macman_ | BalSak: like what ? | 00:49 |

| sef | acerimmer: k will boot other linux box and try it | 01:08 |
| bedwyr | krazykrivda_, oh, yeah, I know how that goes XD | 01:08 |
| acerimmer | sef: try alternate install? | 01:08 |
| sef | acerimmer: no maybe I should | 01:09 |
| bedwyr | krazykrivda_, it's a bit like typing "recursion" in google XD | 01:09 |
| sef | I just get a blinking cursor, maybe it doesn't have the S3 Chrome drives | 01:09 |
| krazykrivda_ | aka recursive? | 01:10 |

| bedwyr | phiqtion, 64 is a processor thing... is your processor 32 or 64 bits? | 01:11 |
| dwayneJM | I need a documentation for ubuntu 9.10 in a PDF format | 01:12 |
| phiqtion | i know it's a cpu thing. mine is 64bit also | 01:12 |
| primordialstew | anyone in here able to help me configure my non-xwindows video output? | 01:12 |
| SanGohan | phiqtion: what is your CPU please? | 01:12 |
| phiqtion | ive been using 32bit because i only have 1gb ram | 01:12 |
| primordialstew | not trying to do anything fancy, just use an LCD monitor | 01:12 |
| bedwyr | phiqtion, hm.. I trust that if you install with Wubi, you will need the 32bit version, otherwise you can give the 64bit a whirl :D | 01:12 |
| phiqtion | why wubi | 01:13 |
| phiqtion | i can install however | 01:13 |

| onetinsoldier | hello all | 01:14 |
| bedwyr | phiqtion, did you actually mean to ask if 1gb ram was enough to run ubuntux64? | 01:14 |
| SanGohan | phiqtion: no relations with the CPU architecture. If your processor is able to understand the 64 bits instructions, so you have to use an AMD kernel (in Debian this is the case) but if your CPU is 32 bits, so use the standard x86 instructions | 01:14 |
| distress | bedwyr: 4gb | 01:14 |
| bedwyr | distress, you serious? to run ubuntux64 you NEED 4gb? | 01:15 |
| SanGohan | phiqtion: Linux kernel is able to run on an 16/32 MB RAM unit, so with 4GB RAM..... ;) | 01:15 |
| Stereocaulon | bedwyr, No, you don't, but it is quite handy to have at least 4GB when running 64bit | 01:15 |
| ActionParsnip | bedwyr: if you have 4Gb 64bit is advised but 32bit + pae will do | 01:15 |

| ActionParsnip | bedwyr: if you have 1gb ram and a 64bit CPU you can run either 32 or 64bit, if you encode / decode video / audio then 64bit is useful, otherwise 32bit is fine | 01:17 |

| kaushal | whats the shortcut key for moving one page forward and backward using less command ? | 01:18 |

| spat_hero | Kernel panic in kernel_init | 02:10 |
| acerimmer | spat_hero: so u get kernel panic when booting teh live cd or from the hdd? | 02:10 |
| distress | spat_hero: and you are/did not instal(ling) 9.04 over an 10.04 upgrade ? | 02:10 |
| spat_hero | acerimmer: livecd | 02:10 |
| Typos_King | BaliShag: stuff like that will be a videocard drivers issue | 02:10 |
| spat_hero | distress: can't install or try without installing. Either one: kernel panic. | 02:10 |
| wildbat | spat_hero, did you check fo Live CD intergety ? or did memtest? | 02:10 |
| acerimmer | spat_hero: try the alternate ISO ubuntu install for your machine. ensure you get the right version 32/64 bit and do a md4sum check after you downlaod and after you burn it | 02:11 |
| distress | spat_hero: then you have to get a rescue cd out | 02:11 |
| spat_hero | wildbat: did memtest for 4 hours. Tried multiple livecds I had archived and have used in the past. | 02:11 |

| magedragon25 | was given and acer aspire one with no cdrom....want to wipe it clean and install 10.04.......what's the best way to do this? | 02:12 |
| h00k | magedragon25: USB, an ISO, and unetbootin | 02:13 |
| xangua | !usb | magedragon25 | 02:13 |
| ubottu | magedragon25: For information about installing Ubuntu from USB flash drives, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick - For a persistent live USB install, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent | 02:13 |
| h00k | !unetbootin | magedragon25 | 02:13 |
| spat_hero | distress: ??? How do I do this when Live CD has kernel panic? | 02:13 |
| h00k | spat_hero: it sounds like you have hardware problems, you might want to give netconsole a shot | 02:13 |
| distress | spat_hero: then you have to get another live cd | 02:13 |
| h00k | !netconsole | spat_hero | 02:13 |
| acerimmer | spat_hero: that's why i suggested a new download - a good iso shouldn't have a kp on it | 02:13 |
| h00k | spat_hero: did this happen on an installed version, also? | 02:13 |
| distress | yeah or your hardware is broken | 02:13 |
| Loshki | spat_hero: You say you tried multiple livecds? Are you saying there's no version that doesn't panic when you run the live cd? | 02:14 |
| magedragon25 | thanx all who answered | 02:14 |
| spat_hero | distress: yes, I'm sure it's hardware-related. | 02:14 |
| coffee_ | h00k: thanks a lot! | 02:14 |
| h00k | coffee_: did you find it? | 02:14 |
| distress | then you gotta find out what is broken | 02:14 |
| spat_hero | Loshki: Correct! Thanks for listening! | 02:14 |
| coffee_ | h00k: yes | 02:14 |
| h00k | spat_hero: yeah, check out netconsole | 02:14 |
| distress | its most likely screen related | 02:14 |
| acerimmer | spat_hero: if you've a usb on your box you might consider the usb install method | 02:14 |
| distress | maybe motherboard | 02:15 |
| spat_hero | acerimmer: I don't think that's going to bypass the hardware issue, unless it's a CD issue, and I've tried installation from CD and DVD from my macine. | 02:15 |
| h00k | spat_hero: I was able to distuingish my L2 Cache on my proc was bad. | 02:15 |
| h00k | spat_hero: did you verify the CDs? | 02:15 |
| h00k | !md5 | spat_hero | 02:15 |
| ubottu | spat_hero: 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 | 02:15 |
| spat_hero | Here's what I want to know: how can I find out? Why won't it tell me what piece of hardware it's failing on? | 02:15 |
| Loshki | spat_hero: 8.04 LTS is the stables distro I know of. If you can't boot the 8.04 live cd without a kernel panic, then I'd say it's time to give up on Ubuntu for that particular hardware... | 02:15 |
| spat_hero | Ubuntu was working last week before I tried upgrade!!!!! | 02:16 |
| distress | spat_hero: replace things start with a screen or a motherboard | 02:16 |
| distress | spat_hero: or try a diff OS | 02:16 |
| spat_hero | Like Windoze? Good idea. | 02:16 |
| orange_ | How would I figure out why my laptop with ubuntu 10.04 now will power itself off after a few minutes. It has never done that with previous versions over the years. Soon as I installed 10.04 I get this. I'm thinking there is a log file describing why it rebooted... | 02:16 |
| wildbat | spat_hero, what type of cpu you got ? | 02:16 |
| t0ny-p40 | Ok, When I run this. DISPLAY=":0" xrandr --output default --mode 1280x720_60.00 | 02:16 |
| Loshki | spat_hero: what version did you upgrade from? | 02:16 |
| h00k | spat_hero: you can use netconsole to give kernel dumps with a crossover and another machine, if available, check this out: https://wiki.edubuntu.org/KernelTeam/Netconsole | 02:16 |
| t0ny-p40 | I get xrandr: Configure crtc 0 failed | 02:16 |

| Loshki | spat_hero: 10.04 is still stabilising. If all else fails, you might have to drop back to 9.10... | 02:17 |
| distress | i bet the cpu is alright though | 02:17 |
| spat_hero | Loshik: tried booting 9.10, 9.04, 7.04 CDs. | 02:18 |
| distress | unless you have a broken cooler or something | 02:18 |
| spat_hero | Also, non-Ubuntu: Debian...can't remember what distro... | 02:18 |
| h00k | spat_hero: please see that netconsole wiki, it will give you the detailed message of your kernel panic | 02:18 |

| ubottu | andares: lubuntu is a project to create a derivative of Ubuntu using the LXDE desktop environment. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu | 02:42 |
| andares | acerimmer: that doesn't answer any of my questions at all. | 02:42 |
| andares | why would you link me to that? | 02:42 |
| Loshki | rww: unusual. Most people used to say they preferred wicd. Has it 'gone down' in 10.04... | 02:42 |
| zheng | distress: Ok, thx. I'll read it. | 02:42 |
| acerimmer | andares: both These *buntus are low demand distros. just FYI | 02:43 |
| IdleOne | andares: you have more hd space? use gparted to extend your ubuntu partition | 02:43 |
| rww | Loshki: it's not wicd's fault, it's the fault of crappy wifi drivers | 02:43 |
| andares | IdleOne: extend into what? | 02:43 |

| andares | IdleOne: is it feasible to have a 4gb / in general? | 02:44 |

| ntemis | note that i installed it onto it with the official cd | 02:45 |
| CajunLanMan | Quick question guys. Is an upgrade to 10.04 as good as a fresh install? | 02:45 |
| ntemis | no usb hacks no nothing | 02:45 |
| ntemis | i connected my hd-dvd from xbox360 onto it and did the installation | 02:45 |
| myrl | cajunman i personally dont think so | 02:45 |
| ntemis | so it should work | 02:45 |

| andares | what | 02:46 |
| ntemis | i also press f12 and sellected to boot from the sd card | 02:46 |
| bobcoat | andares: could you mount a partition from a different drive? | 02:46 |
| acerimmer | ntemis: did u hcange bios back to hdd boot order? | 02:46 |
| andares | bobcoat: I do. I have /home mounted from sdb1. | 02:46 |
| ntemis | any thoughts on the manner? am stuck | 02:46 |
| Loshki | CajunLanMan: I agree with myrl. Upgrades are much harder to test, because everyone's setup is slightly different, so there will be fewer problems doing a fresh install... | 02:46 |
| myrl | when i right click on a file i dont see the encrypt option how do i add it? | 02:46 |
| ntemis | no i didnt | 02:46 |
| bobcoat | andares: would that give you more space? | 02:47 |
| onetinsoldier | CajunLanMan: i'd tend to say no. but, if you get all packages upgraded and installed, i suppose there's no real issue with it to point out either | 02:47 |
| IdleOne | ntemis: STOP USING YOUR ENTER KEY. Please | 02:47 |
| ntemis | i have 1st boot the sd card | 02:47 |
| h00k | ntemis: Please keep all of your comments on one line, it makes it extremely difficult to keep up | 02:47 |
| andares | bobcoat: I can't just bridge a partition between two drives without changing a lot of my setup. | 02:47 |
| CajunLanMan | acerimmer, I only ask because I have factory restore, Windows 7, and Ubuntu 9.10 all installed on this machine, and that seems harder to re setup. So I was pondering an upgrade instead. | 02:47 |
| ntemis | ok sorry, etc | 02:47 |

| kaseano | hi :) just wondering how to ftp something in ubuntu | 02:49 |
| kaseano | ex: http://www.imagemagick.org/script/install-source.php#unix | 02:49 |
| bobcoat | andares: what directory does it normally use? you could mount over this directory and see what changes and how much space you need | 02:49 |
| CajunLanMan | yes. keeping win7 | 02:49 |
| myrl | kaseano you can install ftp client in software center | 02:49 |
| CajunLanMan | if possible | 02:49 |
| kaseano | oh ok | 02:49 |
| kaseano | ill google that thx myrl | 02:49 |
| myrl | kaseano gftp | 02:49 |
| myrl | kaseano youre welcome | 02:50 |
| kaseano | oh well I just mean download something | 02:50 |
| kaseano | on ubuntu lol | 02:50 |
| usr13 | kaseano: same with any other OS | 02:50 |
| kaseano | I've used packages for everything so far | 02:50 |
| acerimmer | CajunLanMan: possible & easy if properlydone. First back up your data AND make install on computer HW upgrades, especially any bios upgrades | 02:50 |
| kaseano | like apt-get and aptitude | 02:50 |
| usr13 | kaseano: Do you want a gui client? | 02:50 |
| kaseano | no that's ok | 02:50 |
| h00k | kaseano: you can use Nautilus, actually, instead | 02:50 |
| usr13 | kaseano: Filezilla? | 02:50 |
| myrl | kaseano you can also use ur web browser or nautilus | 02:50 |
| IdleOne | kaseano: Please keep your posts limited to one line. excessive use of the enter key makes it hard to follow | 02:50 |
| kaseano | sry | 02:50 |
| myrl | when i right click on a file i dont see the encrypt option how do i add it? | 02:51 |
| h00k | kaseano: in the location bar (access with ctrl+l) you can use ftp://sitehere with nautilus | 02:51 |
| CajunLanMan | Will do. Thanks for the help. | 02:51 |
| kaseano | ok I'll google nautilus thx h00k | 02:51 |
| h00k | myrl: I think that's in seahorse-plugins actually | 02:51 |
| usr13 | kaseano: You can just do command line; ftp host.name.here | 02:51 |
| acerimmer | CajunLanMan: then try the 9.1 distro upgrade option. should that fail, do a fresh install with the same partition table set up. | 02:51 |
| h00k | kaseano: you have it already! it's your file-browser | 02:51 |
| myrl | h00k thanks | 02:51 |
| distress | myrl: its not implemented | 02:51 |
| myrl | ok | 02:51 |
| CajunLanMan | acerimmer, will do. Thanks again. | 02:52 |
| kaseano | well I ssh into my box, and it's all ubuntu from a command line | 02:52 |
| usr13 | kaseano: if it is anonymous ftp, yes, you can use any browser, firefox etc. | 02:52 |
| acerimmer | CajunLanMan: take your time, follow the guides good luck | 02:52 |
| usr13 | kaseano: firefox ftp://server.here | 02:52 |

| === caplink811-log is now known as caplink811_log | ||

| myrl | idleone but is it safe compared to other programs | 02:54 |
| usr13 | myrl: A aserver is as secure or insecure as you make it. | 02:54 |
| advaitd | has anybody run into flashplugin issues with lucid | 02:54 |
| IdleOne | myrl: it is as safe as you make it . yeah what usr13 said :) | 02:55 |
| Loshki | julian-: what did you 'wipe' it with? | 02:55 |
| myrl | but is apache2 generally a safe server? | 02:55 |
| usr13 | myrl: It also depends on what your serving and how it's set up. | 02:55 |
| julian- | Loshki: Mac OS X's Disk Utility, a zero all over wipe. | 02:55 |
| myrl | k thanks | 02:55 |
| IdleOne | myrl: the real answer to your question is that there is no simple yes or no to that question | 02:56 |
| myrl | idleone lol ok | 02:56 |
| Loshki | julian-: usually if I'm returning a drive, I run the manufacturer's own diagnostic disk. Some suppliers won't take a return that hasn't failed their own tests... | 02:56 |
| onetinsoldier | advaitd: yes. i can't click on a flash video link | 02:56 |

| onetinsoldier | advaitd: i can't say that i've tried to fix it | 02:57 |
| distress | slug: sounds like broken hardware prob the headphones | 02:58 |
| julian- | Loshki: Well, this company has, both W7 and Ubuntu said it was bad/failing, and trying to get files off it was less than fun, I just can't figure out why it isn't even reporting the ability to collect SMART suddenly (running from a live disc). | 02:58 |

| slug | distress: they work fine in windows and my fiance's mac | 02:58 |

| Loshki | julian-: the only thing that occurs to me is the obvious: that the wipe trashed the SMART data somewhow... | 02:59 |
| onetinsoldier | advaitd: i can play them. if i go to a site where there's like, an embedded link that will take me to see the vid on youtube, i can't click on it. but the vid at youtube work ok for me | 02:59 |
| slug | distress: I actually had the same issue with a previous pair of headphones | 02:59 |
| julian- | Loshki: Hmm, it just seems like it should be the kind of thing that should be inherently recreated/impossible to wipe. | 02:59 |
| myrl | is there a program that shows the ips of all the computers on the network? | 03:00 |
| julian- | Loshki: Thanks anyway, seeing as it can't seem to run benchmarks I figure it'll probably still fail their tests. | 03:00 |
| distress | slug: so you claim that its software while all you do is move the headphone plug around ? | 03:00 |
| advaitd | onetinsoldier: Thanks, I seem to have a slightly different problem, I am new to the community, any suggestions on how to go about finding a solution | 03:00 |
| distress | slug: maybe your hardware is not supported ? | 03:01 |
| onetinsoldier | advaitd: there's the ubuntu forums, here, and a lot of times... i just try to search google for an answer | 03:01 |
| Loshki | julian-: couldn't agree with you more. I have occasionally seen disks where smartctl would intermittently report 'no SMART support'. Might be a symptom of a malfunctioning drive controller... | 03:01 |
| slug | distress: i suppose that's a possibility, but I can't help but think its a software issue as I use these headphones on windows fully plugged in without any issue.... | 03:01 |
| advaitd | onetinsoldier:Thanks | 03:01 |

| foxmulder | powertool08: I mean on you mail server. | 03:19 |
| I_Love_Beer | myrl, you can run nmap [network address] to see who is connected to your network, that is the only thing I really know of. | 03:19 |
| myrl | ok | 03:19 |
| Loshki | bedwyr: it could happen.... | 03:19 |

| powertool08 | foxmulder: My laptops usually stay connected often enough to grab the same ip, and don't have too many guest so it doesn't bother me. | 03:19 |

| powertool08 | foxmulder: What do you mean? It wouldn't have an ip, it runs on my desktop and isn't accessible to the LAN, no need for an ip. | 03:20 |
| foxmulder | powertool08: Fair enough. You were complaining about your mail server changing ips. | 03:20 |

| bedwyr | Loshki, i think that if k3b manages to burn it i'll re-blank and switch to Kubuntu aha | 03:23 |
| onetinsoldier | bedwyr: have you tried gnomebaker? | 03:24 |
| powertool08 | itilious: I think you can if you write a daemon script for it and add it to start with the other daemons. | 03:24 |

| DarkDigitalDream | itilious: it has to be possible. If you have an apache server running, its up and running before anyone logs in | 03:24 |
| I_Love_Beer | itilious, do you mean that you want to drop to a terminal before the loggin, such as the resore kernal operation? | 03:24 |

| ubottu | Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 03:52 |

| PeterFA | I iz 1337. | 03:53 |
| _Snork | the last few days have made me hate 10.04 :| | 03:54 |
| bedwyr | I iz don't c4r3? | 03:54 |
| jken418 | justdave: can you plug another keyboard into it? Or ssh in? | 03:54 |
| Luija1006 | justdave: I just wanna copy paste a file of a skin for my amsn inside share | 03:54 |
| jonazdnb | bedwyr: thats where the really exciting stuff comes in, risking the whole system with trial/error haha | 03:54 |
| justdave | I can VNC into the box and type that way. | 03:54 |
| PeterFA | bedwyr: what? | 03:54 |
| justdave | or ssh in, that stuff all works | 03:54 |
| jken418 | justdave: ah, good. Now, does your kb show up in dmesg when you plug it in? | 03:54 |

| trask_ | When I try to copy a file from a DVD to my HDD, I get an error of "cp: reading 'file': Input/output error" | 03:54 |
| trask_ | What is wrong, and how can I fix it? | 03:55 |
| myrl | too bad | 03:55 |
| stealth- | I have this line in /etc/sudoers: "stealth ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD:/usr/sbin/openvpn", however when I run "sudo openvpn", it still asks me for my stupid password :( Anyone know what I'm doing wrong? | 03:55 |
| _Snork | you might want to ask in the openvpn channel? | 03:55 |
| Loshki | trask_: a read error from the DVD. Try cleaning it with windex and try again... | 03:55 |
| Luija1006 | I wanna copy paste a file of a skin for my amsn inside share, but the paste option is blocked, can someone help me? | 03:55 |
| justdave | jken418: yes, it does | 03:55 |
| bedwyr | jonazdnb, yes, it is, but i rely too much on this machine to do that | 03:55 |
| PeterFA | bedwyr: is that a password? | 03:56 |
| stealth- | _Snork, this isn't a openvpn problem, though. Openvpn works fine, sudo isn't. | 03:56 |
| Rev84 | Any Ubuntu pros around that can spare me say 5 minutes just to ask a question, I only ask as it saves me having to write continuous lines in the main room. | 03:56 |
| myrl | trask_ dont use windex it may damage the dvd | 03:56 |
| _Snork | oh, sorry, misread the question | 03:56 |
| bedwyr | PeterFA, yes, it's the password for the administrator at the CIA | 03:56 |

| jken418 | Radio-b: what would? | 04:11 |
| ubottu | 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 | 04:11 |
| Loshki | Rev84: what does 'sudo fdisk -l' say? | 04:11 |
| Radio-b | they can charge for support like they do with mysql | 04:11 |
| rww | Radio-b: you can sell Ubuntu. You just can't sell Ubuntu and not provide source code on request. | 04:11 |
| jken418 | Radio-b: they could charge money for the distro. Red Hat does, for instance. But Canonical have promised not to, ever. | 04:11 |
| Radio-b | right, but it wouldn't be a functioning business model | 04:11 |
| jken418 | no | 04:12 |
| michael1982 | ok now wat | 04:12 |
| jken418 | It would be pointless, since Ubuntu is basically debian with bells on. | 04:12 |

| jack-desktop | jken418, not in there, i looked | 04:14 |
| nerddownthestree | well, i can connect, but i have to reset the network in ubuntu aubout 10 times before I can do anything | 04:14 |

| jack-desktop | jken418, these are related the the "Controls" tab in apperence | 04:14 |
| Mokee269 | kushalone, maybe log into gnome and uninstall kde packages and reinstall? dont know | 04:14 |

| tomlikestorock | so I upgraded to lucid, but now I'm finding that my python packages aren't up to date... is there a command to upgrade all my python pacakages? | 04:16 |
| powertool08 | EntityReborn: It lets you choose your partitioning scheme, which packages to install, etc. | 04:16 |
| kushalone | "...360 MB of additional disk space will be needed". So apparently, I don't really have all the files I need for KDE but Lynx just decided to tease me with the option in log in :/ | 04:16 |
| acerimmer | nerddownthestree: did u try pinging "google.com" just to verify a connect? | 04:16 |
| Loshki | bedwyr: some might call it an addiction. How's that k3b burn coming along? | 04:16 |
| jack-desktop | jken418, in clearlooks, natilus uses arrows for the list view (which i like) but ambiance doesn't so im trying to find them, any place where they'd be? | 04:16 |
| tomlikestorock | Specifically, I'm getting this: ImportError: libmysqlclient_r.so.15: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory | 04:16 |
| jken418 | EntityReborn: It allows you to do things with RAID and LVM etc | 04:16 |
| tomlikestorock | I have version 16, but not fifteen... | 04:17 |
| jken418 | jack-desktop: yeah, they might be in /usr/share/themes | 04:17 |
| bedwyr | Loshki, 62%. we each have our own addiction, some are far worse than you ;) | 04:17 |
| EntityReborn | jken418, will it allow for customization of packages installed? | 04:17 |
| jken418 | EntityReborn: IIRC yes | 04:17 |
| nerddownthestree | now that i'm connected, it works but before it would say 100% packet loss | 04:17 |

| Loshki | kushalone: 360MB is nothing. Some miniscule thing missing... | 04:18 |
| acerimmer | nerddownthestree: sounds like the *buntu side works. Suggest you reboot your router | 04:18 |
| jken418 | jack-desktop: ok, idk then | 04:18 |

| nerddownthestree | tried that | 04:18 |
| hiexpo | open wrt | 04:18 |

| Nautilus | where is the default "It Works!" web site in the file structure? | 04:18 |
| jken418 | EntityReborn: I don't think you can set up an LVM with the Live CD installer, which is a bit poor. | 04:18 |
| hiexpo | wrt 56g ? ver num | 04:19 |
| kushalone | Loshki, please tell me you are joking. If this was three years back with me on my dial-up, I would call you [redacted]. | 04:19 |
| powertool08 | Nautilus: /var/www/html I think. | 04:19 |
| bedwyr | Loshki, it auto-set itself at 4x | 04:19 |
| EntityReborn | jken418, that wasn't my question :) | 04:19 |
| bastid_raZor | Nautilus: /var/www/index.html | 04:19 |
| jken418 | EntityReborn: sorry, what's your question? | 04:19 |
| bedwyr | Loshki, failure will hit at 94% or not at all | 04:19 |
| kushalone | Loshki, no offense though. Thankfully, I have a fairly decent connection now. (: | 04:20 |
| Loshki | kushalone: distros have, in general, gotten larger, and generally assume you have a broadband connection, rightly or wrongly... | 04:20 |
| EntityReborn | "jken418, and the livecd doesn't have any hidden options for this?" (choose which packages to install) | 04:20 |
| powertool08 | nerddownthestree: I use dd-wrt, it crashes about every 2 weeks and I have to reboot it. Although I'm using the mirco version and there is barely enough ram to keep it going. | 04:20 |
| Loshki | bedwyr: yeah, we're both waiting to see what k3b does... | 04:20 |
| dantix | good night everbody. I'm walking in circles with this issue. Please take a look http://pastebin.com/i5p3Dr22, I can't either install nor uninstall sogo package. Waht can I do? | 04:20 |
| acerimmer | EntityReborn: you could use the live cd and then post install lvm if i'm not mistaken | 04:20 |
| bedwyr | Loshki, nah, i'm wiating for the last waltz, to quote the Rasmus | 04:20 |
| nerddownthestree | i have a WRT54G2, running micro_SSH | 04:20 |
| Out_Cold | if k3b fails to burn use gnomebaker ;) | 04:20 |
| kushalone | Loshki, yes sir/ma'am. I have broadband now. The download is done as we speak. | 04:21 |
| hiexpo | go to dd wrt support | 04:21 |
| bedwyr | Out_Cold, the baker failed, sorry | 04:21 |

| ubottu | #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 04:21 |
| EntityReborn | Ok, maybe I'm misunderstanding something... LVM is the harddrive setup, correct? | 04:21 |
| Out_Cold | ouch lol.. baker has never failed me | 04:21 |
| Loshki | powertool08: I use tomato firmware on a linksys. I *never* crashes. And as far as I can tell, never malfunctions... | 04:21 |
| camshron | bedwyr try xfburn | 04:21 |
| EntityReborn | I'm talkinjg about packages, ie xchat, totem, gnome | 04:21 |
| jken418 | EntityReborn: No, it doesn't, per se. But you could finish the standard installation with the Live CD, then chroot into your new install and add/remove packages then. | 04:21 |
| EntityReborn | RIght, I knew that. | 04:21 |

| bedwyr | camshron, i've tried, brasero, baker, the cli util cdrecorder... | 04:22 |
| Nautilus | thanks for the pointer to It Works. I see it's owner/group is root:root. I've been putting my sites in my /user/name/sites folder, but then it's always me:me as owner/group, and that causes issues (I think I want them to be wwwroot:wwwroot). Whats the best way to handle this (right now I have to chown anytime I make a dir) | 04:22 |

| bedwyr | camshron, if k3b fails, i doubt xfburn will prevail... they pretty much all use the same back-end tools anyway, don't they? | 04:22 |
| theadmin | Sigh. People, help. When system works for a while, it becomes sloooow, sluggish like heck knows what... a fsck fixes it. What on earth?! | 04:22 |

| hiexpo | open wrt is the most supported and stable | 04:22 |
| camshron | would burning software in wine work? | 04:22 |
| jken418 | EntityReborn: but no, the graphical installer (ubiquity) has no options for which packages are installed | 04:23 |
| Out_Cold | EntityReborn, some people misread or miss your actual question and assume the answer ;) | 04:23 |

| rootlinuxusr | anybody else have any issues post upgrade from 9.10-10.04 with external monitor displays? | 04:23 |
| bedwyr | camshron, if i have to burn in wine, i may as well burn at the office on a windoze comp | 04:23 |
| EntityReborn | Vigo, kinda, but WITH the packages on the CD | 04:23 |
| Out_Cold | EntityReborn, you want to install extra packages on an install? | 04:23 |
| theadmin | rootlinuxusr: Some people do, do you use Xinerama or what's it called again? It's broken in Lucid | 04:23 |
| EntityReborn | Out_Cold, more like a custom install. | 04:24 |

| Out_Cold | you want the packages available 'if' you want them? | 04:24 |
| hiexpo | theadmin, - read up its mot weird | 04:24 |
| EntityReborn | Out_Cold, exactly | 04:24 |
| bedwyr | Loshki, well, time to sacrifice a CD-R | 04:25 |
| EntityReborn | Think the multi-cd install for Fedora | 04:25 |
| psusi | haha, wow, that's cool... I just suspended my computer and it woke up when you guys talked on irc and that caused a packet to be sent to my machine | 04:25 |
| Out_Cold | EntityReborn, maybe just have a secondary repo cd? | 04:25 |
| EntityReborn | (if they still do that) | 04:25 |
| theadmin | hiexpo: Well, mainly yes, but first, please use "stuff | username" to direct factoids to users directly... It became confusing | 04:25 |
| EntityReborn | Out_Cold, @_@ you can do that? | 04:25 |
| theadmin | hiexpo: Example: "!yay | theadmin" | 04:25 |
| Loshki | bedwyr: worth a try.... | 04:25 |

| Narya | does anyone know with abcde how to stop the playlist from being made? | 04:26 |

| jonazdnb | bedwyr: i thought u didnt have any cdrs.. why not use it from the beginning? :P they are so cheap nowadays | 04:26 |

| bombadil_rocks | i'm having some problem with conky, when I have it run in startup it obscures all other windows, any ideas? | 04:26 |
| bedwyr | jonazdnb, why burn a CDR when ubuntu release every 6 months? | 04:26 |
| powertool08 | hiexpo: You can also redirect the factoid to a PM from ubottu with > instead of | and it only puts one line in the channel. | 04:26 |
| bedwyr | jonazdnb, it's a waste | 04:26 |
| Out_Cold | EntityReborn, might be able to just have packages stored (added after remaster) in the same directories as the rest? | 04:26 |
| EntityReborn | jonazdnb, use a USB, | 04:27 |
| rootlinuxusr | depends how often you upgrade/install | 04:27 |
| EntityReborn | save CDs :) | 04:27 |

| EntityReborn | I have a usb that boots like 5 different LiveCDs (via Grub2) | 04:27 |
| Vigo | EntityReborn: Pendrive site has those. | 04:27 |
| Out_Cold | EntityReborn, if it's usb, make one partition a remaster and another a repository? | 04:27 |
| bedwyr | rootlinuxusr, not that often, but i have a an old PC i use to toy with distros... CDRWs are perfect for that and my comp is too old to boot from USB i'm affraid | 04:28 |
| EntityReborn | Out_Cold, my USB boots ISOs directly | 04:28 |
| rootlinuxusr | same here. =] | 04:28 |
| EntityReborn | So, i'll probably AptOnCD a repo, and go from there, manually mounting an ISO | 04:28 |
| Out_Cold | EntityReborn, which ever way to the solution ;) | 04:28 |
| powertool08 | EntityReborn: How did you make said USB? unetbootin? | 04:28 |
| bedwyr | i'm using a box that is about 7 years old | 04:28 |

| bastid_raZor | Nautilus: yes, http://www.udel.edu/topics/os/unix/general/groupsharing.html .. start reading at Future Additions to the Directory. | 04:30 |
| rootlinuxusr | so, recap; aptoncd will allow use of a USB drive not a cd? | 04:30 |
| EntityReborn | Scunizi, but that tool only installs a single liveCD, and writes the raw data to the drive | 04:30 |

| dnivra | hello. I changed my password when I reinstalled Ubuntu 10.04 but still need to enter the old password to access the keyring. how do I change the password to the keyring so that it matches my current login password? | 04:43 |
| dnivra | installed Ubuntu 10.04* | 04:43 |
| luniz7 | h00k, sorry | 04:43 |
| powertool08 | steven__: run ccsm (compiz core settings manager) and look in the options. you may have to install ccsm if you haven't already. | 04:43 |
| theadmin | powertool08: core? lolwut. It's CompizConfig Settings Manager | 04:44 |
| ChogyDan | dnivra: there should be an app in accessories | 04:44 |
| powertool08 | theadmin: Oh, I don't really use compiz, just going off memory. :P | 04:44 |

| dnivra | ChogyDan, but there's no entry for the keyring. | 04:46 |

| ChogyDan | dnivra: you don't have a default, or a login? | 04:47 |
| powertool08 | Sorry, I don't know. | 04:47 |
| steven__ | thank ok | 04:47 |
| bedwyr | Loshki, yeah. i'll just dump the disk in an unused server at work and have it test the media | 04:47 |
| bastid_raZor | Nautilus: yeah, i'm trying to command now and getting errors.. not sure why. | 04:47 |
| Loshki | bedwyr: ok, best of luck... | 04:47 |
| dnivra | ChogyDan, Under login I have gwibber, my internet connection etc etc. none for login. No default. | 04:48 |
| steven__ | i got this program called sub 7 can someone what it for | 04:48 |
| h00k | steven__: that is not an Ubuntu app. Try elsewhere. | 04:48 |
| ChogyDan | dnivra: well, that is your login keyring, try changing that password | 04:48 |
| bedwyr | Loshki, thanks a bunch for the help! and you know the worse? i'm wanting to install 10.4 because i screwed up my keyboard config | 04:48 |
| ChogyDan | dnivra: at least, I think that is how it works | 04:49 |
| steven__ | h00k: ok i try youtbueing it | 04:49 |
| powertool08 | steven__: o_O Isn't sub7 a windows trojan? | 04:49 |
| dnivra | ChogyDan, but that password is not what I use to access the keyring: it's a random string in there. | 04:49 |
| aaron-n-nikki | I just installed Mayavi2. Where did it go???? | 04:49 |
| steven__ | idk | 04:49 |
| bedwyr | powertool08, that sould be it yes | 04:49 |
| steven__ | so sub 7 for make trolan | 04:50 |
| h00k | steven__: please go elsewhere for this discussion. | 04:50 |
| bedwyr | steven__, sub7 goes to the trash | 04:50 |
| aaron-n-nikki | anybody? | 04:50 |
| powertool08 | steven__: According to wikipedia, its a remote access tool, usually not used for good. I'd delete it. | 04:50 |
| ChogyDan | dnivra: I rightclick on the folder, change password, and then I get a dialog | 04:50 |
| jken418 | aaron-n-nikki: try whereis# | 04:50 |
| steven__ | ok thank you all | 04:51 |
| michaelh | aaron: try 'dpkg -L mayavi2' (or what ever the package is called) | 04:51 |
| jken418 | aaron-n-nikki: sorry, just 'whereis foo' | 04:51 |
| michaelh | aaron: that will dump all of the files that were installed. One of those is the binary :) | 04:51 |
| TheMozart1 | can I install latest Ubuntu on my old PC which only has 256MB RAM? | 04:51 |
| dnivra | ChogyDan, yes I did that. I got a dialog to change the password. but the old password there is not what I use to access the keyring. unless it's encrypted or something. | 04:51 |
| jken418 | TheMozart1: yes. But xubuntu may be a better bet | 04:52 |
| ChogyDan | dnivra: yeah, that's weird | 04:52 |
| homosaur | TheMozart1: agreed, try xubuntu or maybe even try installing server ubuntu and manually installing x and openbox, 10.04 is not good for old hardware | 04:53 |
| bedwyr | powertool08, we may have just created another flippin' script-kiddie! >.< | 04:53 |
| balleyne | Having some trouble with my xserver on another computer, and when I run sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, nothing happens... just get my prompt back. Thoughts? | 04:53 |
| dnivra | ChogyDan, I agree. Makes no sense. it is clear text because all other network keys are stored there and they are all in clear text. | 04:53 |
| elnur | How can I know what eats all my memory? Looking through `top` doesn't answer the question. | 04:53 |
| powertool08 | bedwyr: Perhaps, my guess is they either knew what it was, or they are already compromised or in the process of being compromised. | 04:54 |
| balleyne | elnur: have you tried the gnome-system-monitor? it gives you a list of processes in a gui, you can see how much memory they're using | 04:54 |
| ChogyDan | dnivra: I can't find where you would see the pass for the keyring. I can only look at the individual pws | 04:55 |
| Radio-g | how do I override --march from the make command? | 04:55 |
| elnur | balleyne, i have no GUI | 04:55 |
| bedwyr | powertool08, ah yeah, had a clue and wanted to get their suspicions confirmed...? too late to do anything now anyway XD | 04:55 |
| jken418 | elnur: what's wrong with top? | 04:55 |
| powertool08 | bedwyr: Yep. | 04:55 |
| dnivra | ChogyDan, same here. I thought desktop couch might be it but guess it is not. | 04:55 |
| bedwyr | well, time to do like win me: crash! night night | 04:55 |
| powertool08 | elnur: You can also use htop, then f6 to sort by, then on the left scroll up/down to mem and hit enter. | 04:55 |
| ChogyDan | dnivra: did you try changing the keyring password? | 04:56 |
| powertool08 | Ha! G'night bedwyr | 04:56 |
| shawnboy | is there a built in terminal emulator in Ubuntu or do I have to install one? | 04:56 |
| elnur | jken418, it doesn't show anything that eats like 300-400 mb of memory, while I have only 8 mb of 512 mb free | 04:56 |
| dnivra | ChogyDan, there is no option "keyring" there. | 04:56 |
| TheMozart1 | anyone know min RAM for Ubuntu? | 04:56 |
| ChogyDan | dnivra: just the folder | 04:56 |
| shawnboy | TheMozart1, 384 i think. | 04:56 |
| TheMozart1 | whats xubuntu?> | 04:56 |
| dnivra | ChogyDan, no there is no option "Keyring": file or folder. | 04:56 |
| fwaokda | i'm having the same problem the guy/gal here mentions: http://ohioloco.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=9259142 -- but he doesn't mention where he found his solution anyone know where i might find a fix??? | 04:57 |
| elnur | TheMozart1, ubuntu with XFCE instead of gnome | 04:57 |
| TheMozart1 | so Ubuntu wont run on 256MB RAM? | 04:57 |
| dnivra | ChogyDan, can you check this out http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=490634? | 04:57 |
| elnur | powertool08, didn't know about htop. cool. thanks. but i already sorted everything by mem usage in top and see nothing that eats so much mem. | 04:57 |
| shawnboy | TheMozart1, you mean with graphical interface or just command line interface? | 04:57 |

| ChogyDan | dnivra: can't you just right click the keyring and delete it? then just reenter all your passwords | 04:58 |
| powertool08 | I don't like looking at my memory levels, it makes me hate firefox :( But I love my AddOns and can't ditch it. | 04:58 |
| dnivra | ChogyDan, In the passwords and keys window? but I don't have a keyring option there :(. | 04:59 |
| balleyne | TheMozart1 if Ubuntu says the system requirements are 512 MB of RAM, I've tried it on less before and it craaawls. Xubuntu has a lighter memory footprint | 04:59 |
| ChogyDan | dnivra: do you have any graphics that looks like a folder? | 04:59 |
| bastid_raZor | Nautilus: ahh.. it seems you need to give the partition `acl` options in /etc/fstab | 04:59 |
| balleyne | TheMozart1: oops, no "if" in the last message, changed it around and forgot to delete that word... | 04:59 |
| dnivra | ChogyDan, yes "Login" | 04:59 |
| shawnboy | TheMozart1, I've installed Crunchbang Linux on a really old, slow, memory starved PC and it works well. It's based on Ubuntu. | 05:00 |
| ChogyDan | dnivra: [folder graphic] <b>Passwords:</b> "keyring name" | 05:00 |
| dnivra | ChogyDan, am I supposed to change that password corresponding to "login": what I get by right clicking? | 05:00 |
| TheMozart1 | shawnboy: ok | 05:00 |
| TheMozart1 | balleyne: OK | 05:00 |
| bastid_raZor | Nautilus: http://www.wlug.org.nz/AccessControlLists ..that page gives a good explaination | 05:00 |
| ChogyDan | dnivra: yeah, that is the login keyring. I think we mixed up some terms | 05:01 |
| shawnboy | So... anybody know if there's already a terminal emulator in Ubuntu or will I need to install one? | 05:01 |
| powertool08 | shawnboy: There is. | 05:01 |
| jken418 | shawnboy: there is xterm and gnome-terminal | 05:01 |
| BPower | On Lucid, is Grub bootup page supposed to be just a black screen with a list of options? | 05:01 |
| dnivra | ChogyDan, sorry. I should've realised. | 05:01 |
| shawnboy | powertool08, thanks. | 05:01 |
| BPower | ...or is it supposed to be themed? | 05:01 |
| h00k | BPower: it depends on if you're dualbooting or not | 05:01 |
| bastid_raZor | Nautilus: you don't need to install anything, just changing /etc/fstab will do. | 05:01 |
| balleyne | TheMozart1: Xubuntu is an official project. There's also Fluxbuntu that's even more lightweight, which I've installed on Thinkpads from 1999, but that's a community project and it seems to have died out | 05:01 |
| jken418 | BPower: It's debian themed | 05:01 |
| h00k | BPower: by default, there's no theme | 05:02 |
| dnivra | ChogyDan, any way I can test it? | 05:02 |
| shawnboy | jken418, so I can use one or both of those to access console system like router over a serial port? | 05:02 |
| elnur | h00k, that answers the question. thanks! | 05:02 |
| h00k | elnur: Cool! | 05:02 |
| BPower | h00k, how do I enable the theme? | 05:02 |
| jken418 | BPower: Actually, that might be karmic I'm thingking of. Not sure if the upgrade changed it or not | 05:02 |
| elnur | anyone knows, why top and htop show different free memory? | 05:02 |
| Gryllida | top & htop? | 05:02 |
| Gryllida | no idea | 05:02 |
| h00k | elnur: it caches all it can, so if it shows little 'free,' you're still okay | 05:02 |
| BPower | jken418, well, i have /etc/grub.d/05_debian_theme file if that makes any difference | 05:03 |
| ChogyDan | dnivra: its not like it is clear. Why is it a folder? I'm pretty sure that the worst that happens if you delete those keyrings is that you have to reenter your passwords | 05:03 |
| elnur | h00k, yea, now I see. seems like there is no need to worry :) | 05:03 |
| h00k | elnur: you got it | 05:03 |
| dnivra | ChogyDan, I right clicked the "login" folder and changed the password. will deal with it when it actually happens. | 05:03 |
| h00k | BPower: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2#Theming | 05:03 |
| dnivra | ChogyDan, yeah worst comes to worst I'll just delete them and re-enter the passwords. | 05:04 |
| === Feo[sleeep] is now known as Feo | ||
| elnur | h00k, but sometimes the memory can really be clogged up, right? | 05:05 |
| jken418 | elnur: yes, it can. You'll usually see a lot of swap being used if the RAM is being properly taxed. | 05:05 |
| elnur | h00k, like when 150 apache process are started | 05:05 |
| bastid_raZor | elnur: http://www.linuxatemyram.com/ is a good explanation | 05:05 |
| ziesemer_ | How can I clear users from the user login list / greeter window? I.E., without disabling user accounts. | 05:06 |
| elnur | jken418, aha. so swap is a good indicator. okay. but what if i don't have swap? some VPSs give you no swap at all | 05:06 |
| BPower | h00k, it doesn't say how to enable it... | 05:06 |
| h00k | elnur: it generally does a good job, even with a ton of processes, it may use swap if it wants (if you have swap available) | 05:07 |
| Nautilus | bastid_raZor: will look at fstab in a few minutes | 05:07 |
| === octavio is now known as OctavioRedding | ||
| corpse | can you still add screen savers through usr/share/gnome-screensaver? | 05:07 |
| bastid_raZor | ziesemer_: gconf-editor .. goto /apps/gdm/simple-greeter and check disable_user_list | 05:08 |
| BPower | Actually, i don't really care about the theme. What I really want is to remove all the extra versions of ubuntu from the list of boot options | 05:09 |
| elnur | Seems like top just show free memory available without taking into account that most of the memory went to cache. But htop shows *real* free memory. | 05:09 |
| BPower | I can't find how to do it anywhere | 05:09 |
| h00k | BPower: you can remove those extra kernels from synaptic | 05:10 |
| BPower | h00k, i looked but I didn't see any extra kernals. | 05:10 |
| elnur | bastid_raZor, thanks for the link :) | 05:10 |

| eddy_o | I want to create a vbox carrying XP. I want it to access my regular computer but the only internet addresses it can get to are ones on a list I maintain. Can someone suggest something? | 05:11 |

| powertool08 | eddy_o: Use a software firewall, allow 192.168.1.x, deny everything else. | 05:12 |
| kassah | where are the downloaded packages kept? | 05:12 |
| h00k | BPower: those should be in Synaptic, then | 05:13 |
| ChogyDan | kassah: they should show up with: locate deb | 05:13 |
| slowz3r | Hello Everyone | 05:13 |
| bastid_raZor | BPower: in synaptic search linux-image and uninstall all the kernels you don't want | 05:13 |
| eddy_o | Oh sorry. The host is ubuntu off course. | 05:13 |
| h00k | BPower: sudo apt-get remove linux-image-versionnumberhere | 05:13 |
| === OctavioRedding is now known as octavio | ||
| powertool08 | eddy_o: Right, so put the software firewall on the xp guest. | 05:14 |
| eddy_o | powertool, I don't have much experience with firewalls on linux. Can I shut it off if I am not using the vbox? My previous experience seemed to be that I couldn't. | 05:14 |
| h00k | eddy_o: you might find #virtualbox helpful, also | 05:15 |
| BPower | h00k, bastid_raZor, so based on that paste i just posted, I should sudo apt-get remove linux-image-2.6.32-(13,17,18,19,20, and 21) | 05:15 |

| BPower | h00k thanks, i'll try that out | 05:16 |

| jken418 | Animagladius: what are you trying to do? Copy a directory recursively? If so, use 'cp -r' | 05:26 |
| Scunizi | oxyrosis: make sure ssid is broadcasting.. once you connect you can turn it off. | 05:26 |
| litropy | hi, peeps. Could someone please point me to a guide to configuring pulseaudio with Jack Audio? | 05:26 |
| Animagladius | I'm trying to copy all folders and files inside a directory into another. | 05:27 |
| jken418 | !pulseaudio | 05:27 |
| ubottu | PulseAudio is a sound server intended as a drop-in replacement for !ESD - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PulseAudio for information and installation instructions | 05:27 |
| jken418 | Animagladius: yes, that's what I thought. cp -r original destination | 05:27 |
| oxyrosis | currently i am using the netbook remix to access wireless | 05:28 |
| Scunizi | Animagladius: move or copy | 05:28 |
| mstkrtfs | Animalgladius: make sure to use sudo cp if required | 05:28 |
| Horus | someone knows how to erase old kernels from my grub...??? | 05:28 |
| Animagladius | jken418: Unfortunately that will copy the whole directory and not ONLY what's inside it :( | 05:28 |
| Scunizi | Horus: use synaptic package manager to uninstall them.. then sudo update-grub | 05:29 |
| jken418 | Animagladius: ah, I see. 'cp -r directory/* destination' then :) | 05:29 |
| lucas-arg | hello, can i have gnome-volume-control-applet back in lucid? | 05:29 |
| oxyrosis | i cannot use the router as a router for wired networks either, so it makes repairs a bi more difficult | 05:29 |
| Animagladius | AH, right | 05:29 |
| Animagladius | THAT's it. XD | 05:29 |
| Animagladius | Thanks! :] | 05:29 |
| jken418 | lucas-arg: probably not | 05:29 |
| Animagladius | (Haven't been using Linux in a while due to work... Getting rusty.) | 05:29 |
| ArmyVet | Anyone try out PC-BSD yet ? | 05:29 |
| Horus | tnx Scunizi | 05:29 |
| Animagladius | Thanks everyone :) | 05:29 |
| jken418 | np | 05:29 |
| h00k | ArmyVet: this isn't the channel for that | 05:29 |
| onetinsoldier | !panels | lucas-arg | 05:29 |
| ubottu | lucas-arg: To reset the gnome panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » | 05:29 |
| bastid_raZor | Horus: in synaptic search for linux-image .. uninstall the older versions | 05:29 |
| Scunizi | oxyrosis: that router might have 2 modes.. router & switch .. which the router portion can be turned on and off.. | 05:30 |
| mstkrtfs | anyone here fluent with conky? #conky doesnt work | 05:30 |
| jken418 | !conky | 05:30 |
| lucas-arg | onetinsoldier: i dont want to reset it, i want to have my old and normal volume icons and not an applet i dont use at all | 05:30 |
| bastid_raZor | Scunizi: after uninstalling the kernels grub is automatically updated .. Horus | 05:30 |
| mstkrtfs | jken418:is that a server? | 05:30 |
| onetinsoldier | lucas-arg: oh... don't know. sorry | 05:30 |
| Horus | oohh i c | 05:31 |
| Scunizi | bastid_raZor: use to be.. but I haven't played with 10.04 yet.. I never assume :) | 05:31 |
| jken418 | mstkrtfs: no. I was asking ubottu for a factoid about conky. No such luck though. | 05:31 |
| Scunizi | at least not with all the changes that are made. | 05:31 |
| mstkrtfs | jken418: damn. no one seems to know how to work a conky config at all | 05:31 |
| Horus | cause i'm having problems my pc is getting very slow.... could this be the problem....??? | 05:32 |
| jken418 | mstkrtfs: Try googling; and the ubuntu forums | 05:32 |
| bastid_raZor | mstkrtfs: what are you trying to do? | 05:32 |
| mstkrtfs | jken418: been there, done that. | 05:32 |
| k3rn | can i mount a specific folder of the external ubs drive when using UID in fstab? | 05:33 |
| mstkrtfs | bastid-raZor: my conky doesnt stick to the background. it has a border/shadow around it. no matter what window type i try. override, desktop, normal | 05:33 |
| k3rn | like UUID=<uuid>/folder /home/user/folder auto default 0 0? | 05:34 |
| lucas-arg | LOL i got it back with gnome-volume-control-applet | 05:34 |
| bastid_raZor | mstkrtfs: i think that is a metaciy or compiz shading | 05:34 |
| === `mOOse` is now known as m00se | ||
| mstkrtfs | does that mean i have to change my theme? | 05:35 |
| bastid_raZor | mstkrtfs: just adjust the window shading to none | 05:35 |
| onetinsoldier | lucas-arg: nice :) | 05:36 |
| lucas-arg | onetinsoldier: yeah cool, i didnt want to have that indicator thign | 05:36 |

| heyuka | onetinsoldier: alright, I tried upgrading through the from 8.04 to Lucid update manager , (This old box doesn't have a burner). The upgrade failed, leaving the system unrebootable. I managed a fresh install with feisty, but now I'm stuck trying to get to gutsy | 05:43 |

| Razass | jken418: ahh I think I found it, ill check | 05:45 |
| heyuka | onetinsoldier: but that was the plan | 05:45 |
| onetinsoldier | heyuka: i see | 05:46 |
| Razass | heh I like the new transparent terminal window | 05:46 |
| ShroudedCloud | Need to know hwo to get rid of a source list without using update manager or synaptic, etc. | 05:46 |
| Razass | jken418: yes both graphics cards are shown in the lspci output | 05:46 |
| rsvp | what's the default shell under Lucid? is it bash, and if so which version? thanks | 05:46 |
| heyuka | onetinsoldier: error given in the update manager is "Could not find the release notes, the server may be overloaded" | 05:47 |
| onetinsoldier | heyuka: don't know | 05:47 |
| maco | rsvp: for user login shells, bash. but if you put /bin/sh in a script, that points to dash | 05:47 |
| maco | !info bash | rsvp | 05:47 |

| theadmin | What is required for Nmap compilation on Ubuntu? Everything worked here :D Just wanna know, so that I can do so on a new install. | 05:47 |
| bastid_raZor | theadmin: nmap is in the repo's | 05:48 |
| onetinsoldier | heyuka: don't know what to make of the error | 05:48 |
| theadmin | bastid_raZor: Yeah, 5.0, which is far from the latest | 05:48 |
| heyuka | onetinsoldier: hrm.. ok | 05:48 |
| onetinsoldier | heyuka: what's the update manager command you're trying? | 05:48 |
| bastid_raZor | theadmin: but to get dependencies you would apt-get build-dep nmap | 05:49 |
| heyuka | onetinsoldier: sudo update-manager -c | 05:49 |
| theadmin | bastid_raZor: Oh. Right... Well, I think all i need was "build-essential", whoever that is | 05:49 |
| nishanth | anyone know how to solve a flash full screen problem? | 05:49 |
| PerfectLion | hi | 05:49 |
| onetinsoldier | heyuka: yeah, roger. that's the command i would try too | 05:49 |
| rsvp | maco, does the startup first rely on dash ? [That's what I heard ... speed considerations apparently over bash. true or false?] | 05:49 |
| maco | rsvp: true | 05:50 |
| maco | rsvp: thats why /bin/sh symlinks to dash, not bash | 05:50 |

| Razass | jken418: you still around? | 05:50 |
| theadmin | PerfectLion: Bug in what? | 05:50 |
| rsvp | maco, it all makes sense now... So with bash v4, we now have arrays. | 05:51 |
| ShroudedCloud | Thanks. | 05:51 |
| maco | PerfectLion: just run "ubuntu-bug PACKAGE" replacing PACKAGE with the name of the package in which you found the bug. or help->report a problem, if its a graphical app | 05:51 |
| onetinsoldier | heyuka: you can change the /etc/apt/sources.list file and try to see if manually upgrading will work | 05:51 |
| maco | theadmin: apt-cache depends build-essential | 05:51 |

| myrl | mneptok on localhost http works | 06:00 |
| onetinsoldier | nishanth: that's an old package name, and is therefore just a 'trasistional' package in lucid | 06:00 |
| theadmin | Appl6: Will that work? Cause 'nmap'='sudo nmap'... but nmap is alias of sudo nmap, and that'd end up giving "sudo sudo sudo sudo sudo sudo sudo sudo"... etc, uh. No? | 06:00 |
| mneptok | myrl: then port 80 is blocked somewhere. | 06:00 |
| myrl | hmm | 06:00 |

| blacksunseven | I'm finding lucid lynx to be very slow and unresponsive on my hardware. What should I be looking for to try and solve this? | 06:01 |
| mneptok | myrl: my guess is that Cox explicitly disallows consumer-grade connections from running servers, and enforces it by port blocking. | 06:01 |

| myrl | mneptok uh oh | 06:02 |
| apctr | how to manage printer settings on ubuntu | 06:02 |

| pG|KiLLa | I need help with my internet browser on UBUNTU, It is extremely slow and sometimes it doesnt even load the pages. What do i do? | 06:02 |
| mneptok | myrl: only if you run it on a non-standard port. and even so, your ISP TOS may well disallow it, and if they find it, could cut you off. | 06:02 |
| PerfectLion | theadmin send this info? | 06:03 |
| Jordan_U | blacksunseven: What GPU? Have you tried System > Administration > Hardware Drivers? | 06:03 |
| Appl6 | theadmin: I just tried alias ls='sudo ls' and it's fine. | 06:03 |
| myrl | mneptok D: | 06:03 |
| theadmin | PerfectLion: What info? That will launch a bug-reporting system and report a bug in eclipse, so developers can hel | 06:03 |

| mneptok | myrl: or call Cox and ask if they offer business grade accounts, and if they do, do they restrict traffic. then upgrade to the level. | 06:04 |
| nishad | Hi.. | 06:04 |
| Azh | does anyone know the command to connect to a wireless network? | 06:04 |
| myrl | mneptok ok but it may cost a fortune | 06:04 |
| * mneptok uses Comcast Business, and runs servers out of his home. | 06:04 | |
| blacksunseven | Jordan_U: I've got the two restricted drivers installed (realtek and ATI) | 06:04 |
| powertool08 | myrl: Complain until they cave, or get a new ISP that doesn't suck. | 06:04 |
| myrl | lol | 06:04 |
| myrl | ok | 06:05 |
| Azh | can someone give the command to connect or reconnect to a wireless network | 06:05 |
| Appl6 | Azh: It depends. man iwconfig will connect you to an access point, and you can give it your key if it's WEP. If you use WPA, you need wpa_supplicant. To handle dhcp, you need dhclient. | 06:05 |
| theadmin | Apparently, ubuntu.com is running Debian. Right? | 06:05 |
| powertool08 | myrl: http://support1.cox.com/sdccommon/asp/contentredirect.asp?sprt_cid=643ad749-1a58-4824-9d1c-8cd5579e132a | 06:05 |
| myrl | now im talking with cox chat | 06:06 |
| myrl | ok | 06:06 |
| Azh | okay i will try that, appl6 | 06:06 |

| White-Horse | Canon Pixma IP1500 Printer will not print using driver Canon PIXMA iP1500 Ver.2.50 anyone ? | 06:06 |
| powertool08 | myrl: Looks like they want to protect you because obviously you can't protect yourself. :/ I love thier slogan. | 06:06 |
| nishanth | Anyone know how to make the full screen work for flash player? | 06:06 |
| nishanth | someone help | 06:06 |
| Azh | linux programmers manual? | 06:06 |
| myrl | powertool08 hahaha | 06:07 |
| justdave | ok, found a matching bug in launchpad, my non-functional keyboard after lucid upgrade appears to be https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/513932 | 06:07 |
| theadmin | nishanth: In no way. Until Adobe fix the bug... it ain't a gonna work | 06:07 |
| justdave | found a workaround though (and added it to the bug) | 06:07 |
| justdave | so my keyboard's working again | 06:07 |
| Azh | so confusing, i just need the command to connect to a wireless network | 06:07 |
| nishanth | theadmin : so this is a problem that exist in the entire lucid? | 06:07 |
| blacksunseven | Jordan_U: to get specific, AMD Athlon II X4 620 @ 2.6GHz, 4GB DDR3 RAM | 06:07 |
| Azh | something like "sudo connect linksys" | 06:08 |
| theadmin | nishanth: Yeah... I experienced it back on Interpid, so maybe it's much more then just Lucid... maybe it's the entire Linux | 06:08 |
| myrl | "In addition to protecting bandwidth by preventing customers from running high-traffic web servers." LOL | 06:08 |
| Azh | is there anything like that | 06:08 |
| Azh | ? | 06:08 |
| Razass | sooo unbuntu isn't detecting my other monitors, the second video card is showing up when I do a lspci but nothing in the 'monitors' area | 06:08 |
| mneptok | nishanth: it's a problem that exists with Flash for Linux. only Adobe can fix it. welcome to proprietary software. | 06:08 |
| theadmin | It's like Microsoft, huh, mneptok? Only they can fix it, but they aren't even planning to :D | 06:08 |
| nishanth | mneptok : lol damn i guess i am stuck with this for a while then | 06:09 |
| PerfectLion | theadmin: My problem only happens when I run the autocomplete Across the ubuntu-bug the developers will know? | 06:09 |
| powertool08 | myrl: translates to: We don't want to build out infrastructure so we limit you to yesterday's technology. | 06:09 |
| White-Horse | Azh just right click on the network icon near the top left click edit and fill in your wireless info and connect | 06:09 |
| myrl | powertool08 lol cox kinda sucks | 06:09 |
| Azh | right, but is there a way to do it through terminal? | 06:09 |
| White-Horse | not that i know of | 06:09 |
| powertool08 | myrl: Pretty much all ISP's do. | 06:09 |
| Azh | oh ok | 06:09 |
| nishanth | i should totally go back to windows...linux has broken me | 06:10 |
| mneptok | powertool08: more like "the average user will end up clicking something that installs a backdoor httpd, so we make sure we block the usual suspect ports." | 06:10 |
| myrl | powertool08 lol then how do you run a web server? | 06:10 |
| powertool08 | mneptok: Perhaps, but that is a user education problem, not a legitimate reason to hinder the more savvy. | 06:10 |
| theadmin | Mine does not, powertool08, I can run any servers just fine | 06:10 |
| White-Horse | nishanth you give up too easy there is never a reason to go back to M$ unless you are a hard core gamer | 06:11 |
| pG|KiLLa | My web browser (Mozilla Firefox) Is running extremely slow and wont load some web pages. I need help please. | 06:11 |

| mneptok | powertool08: lol. you believe users can be educated. i miss being young. ;) | 06:11 |
| rushingad | help please? | 06:11 |
| powertool08 | myrl: Well, they suck in different ways, blocked ports, bandwith caps, outrageous prices, pathetic speeds. | 06:11 |
| theadmin | rushingad: NOT an Ubuntu problem | 06:11 |
| blacksunseven | Should I remove ATI's restricted drivers? do they suck? | 06:11 |
| myrl | powertool08 haha | 06:11 |
| theadmin | blacksunseven: If it works, don't touch it. That's the law of computers. | 06:11 |
| rushingad | my problem is how to do the conversions on ubuntu | 06:11 |
| powertool08 | mneptok: Some can, those who can't will install some screensaver trojan anyway. | 06:11 |
| * mneptok tootles off to PS3 land | 06:12 | |
| blacksunseven | theadmin: lynx is very slow though, i'm trying to figure out why | 06:12 |
| nishanth | White-Horse : a full screen video is the least one can expect from any OS.... | 06:12 |
| theadmin | blacksunseven: Lynx? Uh. The browser 'lynx' or the Lucid? | 06:12 |
| Jordan_U | myrl: smaller local ISPs are often more reasonable. Mine even offered a static IP address at no extra charge. | 06:12 |
| pG|KiLLa | My web browser (Mozilla Firefox) Is running extremely slow and wont load some web pages. I need help please. | 06:12 |
| pG|KiLLa | My web browser (Mozilla Firefox) Is running extremely slow and wont load some web pages. I need help please. | 06:12 |
| mneptok | nishanth: one last time. it's NOT the OS. it's the proprietary web plugin. | 06:12 |
| White-Horse | whats up with the video ? | 06:12 |
| theadmin | pG|KiLLa: Be patient! | 06:12 |
| greezmunkey | Jordan_U: lucky :P | 06:12 |

| progesterone | Question: what do I need to install on Ubuntu to open song file from this website? http://myanmarmp3.net/album.aspx?AlbumID=244 | 06:13 |
| theadmin | blacksunseven: Well, it became more consuming, yeah, but I dunno whether it's the video card... Try disabling Compiz, there is some memory allocation issue with it | 06:13 |
| blacksunseven | theadmin: where do i disable it? | 06:13 |
| theadmin | blacksunseven: system - preferences - appearance - visual effects, set to "None" | 06:13 |
| White-Horse | nishanth you have a link to the video ? | 06:14 |
| powertool08 | myrl: What is your zip code? | 06:15 |
| nishanth | white-horse: i can play no youtube video or any video that use the flash player in full screen | 06:15 |
| Jordan_U | nishanth: You can play youtube videos in full screen via Applications > Sound and Video > Movie Player | 06:15 |
| theadmin | Jordan_U: Ahem. Totem plays Youtube? o_O | 06:15 |
| nishanth | Jordan_U plz tell me how? | 06:16 |
| White-Horse | i have a dual LCD setup 15.6" laptop and 19" external on 1 video card | 06:16 |
| Jordan_U | theadmin: Yup, and BBC | 06:16 |
| theadmin | Jordan_U: Oh well, I'm still sticking to VLC :D | 06:16 |
| onetinsoldier | pG|KiLLa: you can try the following if you want. quit firefox. then rename the .mozilla directory and start firefox. see if that does anything | 06:16 |
| mneptok | progesterone: VLC works with content from that site | 06:16 |
| nishanth | Jordan_U : plz enlighten me how to open online video in totem? | 06:16 |
| Jordan_U | nishanth: Click on the drop down labeled "Playlist", choose the "Youtube" option, and search for a video | 06:16 |
| onetinsoldier | pG|KiLLa: the .mozilla directory is in your /home | 06:17 |
| theadmin | onetinsoldier: Wrong | 06:17 |
| theadmin | onetinsoldier: $HOME is not /home | 06:17 |
| theadmin | onetinsoldier: It's usually /home/$USER/ | 06:17 |
| Vigo | progesterone: That is a tuff one, there are issues that may be there that are just wrong, VLC should work, you may need some Restricted Drivers from Universe. | 06:17 |
| onetinsoldier | theadmin: yeah.. i meant his home dir.. $HOME | 06:17 |
| Azh | well that did not work | 06:17 |
| nishanth | Jordan_U i dont find a playlist option in movie player | 06:18 |
| onetinsoldier | pG|KiLLa: the .mozilla directory is in your /home/<user> directory.. sorry | 06:18 |
| Azh | my wireless keeps dropping out, and i gotta reconnect manually, is there a way to do this through ssh? | 06:18 |
| White-Horse | nishanth i just went to youtube and and watched at full screen on my external 19" LCD so sounds to me that you have a flash prom. or java prom. | 06:18 |
| Jordan_U | nishanth: It's in the sidebar, View > Show Sidebar or press F9 to show it. | 06:19 |
| anthony | hi guys i have a problem my system is running slow. how can i make it run fast again like it was freshly installed | 06:19 |
| White-Horse | nishanth what ubuntu are you using ? | 06:19 |
| progesterone | mneptok Vigo Thanks dudes. I'm installing VLC now. | 06:19 |
| greezmunkey | anthony: the question should be, what's causing my system to run slowly, check the "top" command. | 06:20 |
| nishanth | Jordan_U: ok that worked ...do you know how i can also use this player to watch any video other than those on youtube | 06:20 |
| anthony | ok | 06:20 |
| Jordan_U | nishanth: For other sites you can often find the video files flash is using in /tmp/ named "Flash<random characters here>. Open them in totem and you can play them also. | 06:20 |
| progesterone | Question: On Ubuntu, a short song play regularly like [doo do doo .... do doo do]. How can I turn it off? | 06:20 |
| greezmunkey | progesterone: at startup? | 06:21 |
| White-Horse | anyways anyone want to take a shot helping me with a Canon Printer ? | 06:21 |
| Azh | well thanks anyway | 06:21 |
| nishanth | Jordan_U "flash is using in /tmp/ named "Flash<random characters here>" english plz | 06:21 |
| progesterone | greezmunkey no ... all the time | 06:21 |
| siomyn | White-Horse: What type of printer ? | 06:22 |
| greezmunkey | progesterone: wow. What, like over and over and over, all the time? | 06:22 |
| UbuntuJeff | Anyone else have either slow internet or seems like internet just randomly won't run for a minute or two on Lucid? then it just kicks back in. | 06:22 |

| White-Horse | i am using Canon Driver PIXMA iP1500 Ver.2.50 | 06:24 |
| Jordan_U | nishanth: Open a file browser windo and click "Filesystem" in the left sidebar. Then select the directory "tmp" within that. If you are playing a flash video from most (but not all) sites you should see some files whose names begin with "Flash". You can often find which one you want be looking at the thumbnail, double click the file to open it in movie player | 06:24 |
| greezmunkey | progesterone: heh, nice. | 06:24 |
| anthony | about the problem it sims that the "Xorg " is causing the problem because is to heavy | 06:25 |
| theadmin | Jordan_U: You can as well go simplier and use some random site to convert youtube to, say, AVI | 06:25 |
| === clay_ is now known as ClayG | ||

| ClayG | what is the link to the source.list builder | 06:25 |
| White-Horse | nishanth what ubuntu are you using ? | 06:25 |
| theadmin | ClayG: http://repogen.simplylinux.ch maybe | 06:26 |
| ilikecoffee | this to me: A whole computer freeze would require a driver/kernel fault :: My computer 9.10 AMD freezes, recently while playing video in chrome. (advised here to not use firefox). How can I trace this down? | 06:26 |

| ClayG | how to you set the default launching applications? | 06:26 |
| ClayG | and thanks theadmin | 06:26 |
| ilikecoffee | Second question; is there something like chkdsk or scandisk in ubuntu? | 06:26 |
| Jordan_U | theadmin: Totem's youtube plugin has a better interface IMHO, and most other sites don't have a corrosponding keepvid type service. | 06:26 |
| theadmin | ClayG: "launching applications"? | 06:26 |
| White-Horse | sun java is no longer supported | 06:26 |
| ClayG | found it | 06:26 |
| ClayG | prefered apps | 06:26 |
| anthony | is there no way add memory using my hard drive to add memory like in windows | 06:27 |
| White-Horse | but you can use ice tea java plugin | 06:27 |
| UbuntuJeff | greezmunkey, any idea? | 06:27 |
| ClayG | ok how about program closest to mediamonkey? | 06:27 |
| theadmin | Jordan_U: I dunno, I dunno, one I am using can convert it to AVI, MP4, 3GP, heck knows what formats, even MP3 o_O (only audio) | 06:27 |
| Jordan_U | ilikecoffee: From the terminal, "fsck". From the GUI, System > Administration > Disk Utility | 06:27 |
| angrymeat | anyone using an ati5850 ? | 06:27 |
| bastid_raZor | !swap | anthony follow the link on how to add a swap file | 06:27 |
| ubottu | anthony follow the link on how to add a swap file: swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info | 06:27 |
| greezmunkey | UbuntuJeff: there is a command line app called bmon that you can use to see activity on any network interface. it's in the repo's. You could use it to see if there is anything running in the background using your connection while you aren't looking. | 06:27 |
| White-Horse | <siomyn> White-Horse: so? the printer will not print a thing | 06:27 |

| FloodBot3 | White-Horse: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 06:29 |
| ClayG | anything as good as bitcomet? | 06:29 |
| theadmin | ClayG: I wouldn't say bitcomet is good... Transmission cuts it for me tbh | 06:30 |

| tim__ | I have seamonkey and it does the same thing | 07:10 |
| onetinsoldier | tim__: does this command work ok in a terminal? nslookup 67.190.113.196 | 07:10 |
| Gnea | !printer | White-Horse | 07:10 |
| ubottu | White-Horse: Printing in Ubuntu is done with cups. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Printers - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters - http://linuxprinting.org - Printer sharing: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetworkPrintingFromWindows | 07:10 |
| White-Horse | ForgeAus I installed the driver and the printer is there says its idle and online but it will not print at all | 07:10 |
| greezmunkey | tim__: Try this in a terminal: dig AAAA www.google.com | 07:10 |
| greezmunkey | tim__: Do you get any output? | 07:10 |
| ForgeAus | is this meant to be at 552%? | 07:10 |
| ForgeAus | that doesn't sound right... | 07:10 |
| ForgeAus | normally pecentages go to 100 | 07:10 |
| tim__ | timboy I have seamonkey and it does the same thing | 07:11 |
| radsis | having trouble with nvidia hdmi ->nvidia proprietery tool doesn't complain but tv is blank->anyone else have similar problems, any ideas,ect? | 07:11 |
| ForgeAus | "retrieving file 15 of 28" | 07:11 |
| tim__ | greezmunkey it worked fine | 07:11 |
| onetinsoldier | tim__: does this command work ok in a terminal? nslookup 67.190.113.196 | 07:11 |
| onetinsoldier | tim__: if greezmunkey's worked.. then mine will too | 07:11 |
| greezmunkey | tim__: ok, it's not ipv6, or a dns issue then | 07:11 |
| ForgeAus | is there some way to repair a possibly faulty ISO once its downloaded? | 07:11 |
| tim__ | onetinsoldier it did work | 07:12 |
| onetinsoldier | tim__: roger | 07:12 |
| onetinsoldier | tim__: all i can think of is possible router issue. you behind a router? | 07:13 |
| timboy | tim__, seamonkey is too close to firefox for my comfort. if you can ping dns name then browser should work... | 07:13 |
| wyclif_ | just successfully installed Lucid, awesome. I'm using the LXDE desktop. Boot time is phenomenally better than the last release | 07:13 |
| tim__ | I am having so much trouble with this system since the upgrade that I | 07:13 |
| ForgeAus | wyclif_ so it should be :) | 07:13 |
| tim__ | am planning new full install | 07:13 |
| greezmunkey | tim__: ok, try this: telnet www.google.com 80 - (if it connects it will tell you, ctrl+c to excape) | 07:14 |
| ClayG | whats a good itunes like program, pref something like mediamonkey | 07:14 |
| onetinsoldier | tim__: personally, i pretty much always do clean installs, no upgrades | 07:14 |
| ForgeAus | seamonkey is firefox, kinda... they're both from the same mozilla code... | 07:14 |
| Zelozelos | i have an idea if someone is interested (i always good ideas but no skill to see them through rofl_) anyone use opera? theres some widgets that you can get, one of them is SimAquarium, well my idea is to have the aquarium as a background and for the other part like a config that you can play the game like the widget or just set up the acquarium as you want | 07:14 |
| ForgeAus | seamonkey has the rest of the suite (composer, mail, chatzilla, etc built in tho) | 07:14 |
| Theravadan | i want to send mail via the cmd line but i dont want to use something insecure like sendmail, what's the best optoin? | 07:15 |
| tim__ | greezmunkey; says that connection refused | 07:15 |
| Theravadan | option | 07:15 |
| ForgeAus | where firefox got to go and concentrate on being a browser only | 07:15 |
| wyclif_ | ForgeAus: the biggest improvement though is hibernate/suspend. I didn't have to edit any files, it just works. | 07:15 |
| greezmunkey | tim__: there's your problem, port 80 (possibly more) are being blocked | 07:15 |
| JoeT | Part | 07:15 |
| greezmunkey | tim__: can you do this: ping google.com | 07:16 |
| Theravadan | wyclif_, then u dont have a new i3/i5 laptop because suspend doesnt work on this w/ 10.04 | 07:17 |
| netskillsii | everyone, need help on getting Cairo installed on Debian Lenny. I am getting the following message "No plug-in were found" once i click the check mark application closes. | 07:17 |
| Jon-- | What is a good Linux "ghost" app for making in image of my entire / (minus NTFS mounts and such) | 07:17 |
| tim__ | greezmunkey how do I unblock it? I cannot ping google.com, but I can ping my internet service provider, I am in Honduras | 07:17 |
| joejc | netech, you obviously need plugins | 07:18 |
| wyclif_ | Theravadan: true, I don't. What have you attempted so far? | 07:18 |
| netskillsii | i am using the compile tar.gz file. | 07:18 |
| greezmunkey | tim__: try this: ping 72.14.213.147 | 07:18 |
| onetinsoldier | Jon--: perhaps 'Ghost for Unix, g4u. haven't ever used it. but that's what it's made for | 07:18 |
| Zelozelos | not sure why you need to ping someone, but try speedtest.net, it will let you choose servers all over the world and you'll get a ping report as well | 07:19 |
| onetinsoldier | Jon--: http://www.feyrer.de/g4u/ | 07:19 |
| billybig1igger | can someone please tell me why we can't get ubuntu in .img format so it's easy to install from a usb disk? | 07:19 |
| Theravadan | wyclif_, i installed a mainline kernel and added a boot param per forum instructions. That worked, but the headers that came with that kernel aren't right and my proprietary broadcom wireless module fails to compile with the new kernel, so I can get suspend working but without network access | 07:19 |
| Theravadan | c'est la vie | 07:19 |
| tim__ | greezmunkey no | 07:19 |
| greezmunkey | tim__: do you know someone else near you that has Internet via the same isp, that maybe you can call and have them run similar tests - even if on windows? | 07:20 |
| wyclif_ | Theravadan: have you tried a different kernel yet? I've never tried to compile on an i5. | 07:20 |
| maher | hello | 07:20 |
| onetinsoldier | hi | 07:20 |
| tim__ | greezmunkey: I have a windows laptop sitting right here | 07:21 |
| FailPowah | is there a way to remove the chat stuff from the indicator session appelt so i can keep only the logout/shutdown/ect button? | 07:21 |
| Theravadan | wyclif_, yes, as I said, I tried a mainline kernel that was compiled about 10 days ago. | 07:21 |
| greezmunkey | tim__: try the same tests with it (the dig tests wont work, but the others will) | 07:21 |
| maher | im using backtrack4 my distrubition does not detect cdrom | 07:21 |
| greezmunkey | tim__: brb while you test... | 07:22 |
| Debanjan | Hey guys | 07:22 |
| Debanjan | I need one help | 07:22 |
| Jon-- | !help | Debanjan | 07:22 |
| ubottu | Debanjan: 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. :-) | 07:22 |
| Debanjan | cool | 07:23 |
| wyclif_ | Theravadan You've got me there. You might want to ask a dev about the header issue and see what they say about it. | 07:23 |
| Theravadan | wyclif_, i did, no response.. no big deal, hibernate works, i'll wait a few months until it's supported better | 07:24 |
| maher | im using backtrack4 final wish does not detect cdrom | 07:24 |
| bazhang | maher, #backtrack-linux | 07:24 |

| netskillsii | hello everyone, need help on getting Cairo installed on Debian Lenny. I am getting the following message "No plug-in were found" once i click the check mark application closes. | 07:24 |
| wyclif_ | Theravadan: The bad thing about this is that I know people who won't install Ubuntu or any kind of Debian until a month after the stable release | 07:24 |
| bazhang | netskillsii, this is for Ubuntu; #debian for Debian support | 07:25 |
| Theravadan | wyclif_, understandable, i usually do that, but i was on win7 and it was killing me so i had to upgrade. Even without hibernate ubuntu is much better htan win7 | 07:25 |
| Theravadan | err without supsend i meant | 07:25 |
| wyclif_ | yeah | 07:26 |
| greezmunkey | wyclif_: early adopters==masochists ?? | 07:26 |
| wyclif_ | greezmunkey: hahaha maybe | 07:26 |
| bivo | help a noob, how do I get a root window in xubuntu so I can copy over a new xorg.conf? | 07:27 |
| onetinsoldier | bivo: SUDO -I | 07:27 |
| Jon-- | bivo: is sudo not sufficient? | 07:27 |
| onetinsoldier | oops | 07:27 |
| onetinsoldier | bivo: sorry about the caps... sudo -i | 07:27 |
| TheMusicGuy | Is there a way to create a virtual hard disk in ram, then cache certain speed-critical files in it? | 07:27 |
| TheMusicGuy | and also have them automatically written back to disk occasionally? | 07:29 |
| greezmunkey | TheMusicGuy: check this: http://www.vanemery.com/Linux/Ramdisk/ramdisk.html | 07:29 |
| TheMusicGuy | I know Ubuntu has software that does that sort of thing, but I want to be able to to it with...well, anything. | 07:29 |
| dan_hart24 | any1 there? | 07:30 |
| Jordan_U | TheMusicGuy: The linux kernel does quite a lot of disk caching automatically | 07:30 |
| greezmunkey | TheMusicGuy: here's a quick and dirty: http://www.linuxscrew.com/2010/03/24/fastest-way-to-create-ramdisk-in-ubuntulinux/ | 07:30 |
| tim__ | greezmunkey I can still ping my provider here in Honduras but no where else but have never been able to do this successfully but the internet is working without problem on the other computer and my voip phone is working great also | 07:30 |
| FailPowah | they say ubuntu/linux can be configured so ones hearts desire.. yet i cant remove the chat/ubuntu one/accounts/whatever in the indicator applet session and only keep the shutdown/Ect drop (to logout, shutdown, reboot ect) | 07:30 |
| Ikkakujyu | Wow, I set up internet sharing over ieee1394 and it worked on the first try! I'm amazed | 07:30 |
| TheMusicGuy | Jordan_U, greezmunkey: reading... | 07:30 |
| greezmunkey | tim__: I guess that narrows it down to the ubox...are you running any kind od firewall? | 07:31 |
| tim__ | I had dansguardian installed but removed it after it was blocking ubuntu download pages. | 07:32 |
| shadow-wolf | hi | 07:33 |
| onetinsoldier | howdy | 07:33 |
| shadow-wolf | i have a strange issue with ubuntu desktop 10.04 with wget? | 07:34 |
| tim__ | greezmunkey; I don't know if it is considered a firewall but I was running dansguardian and removed it after it blocked the ubuntu download site and nanny but removed it when it crashed all the time and never worked. | 07:34 |
| Jordan_U | TheMusicGuy: You can see this fairly easily. For instance try running "time cat /path/to/large/file > /dev/null && time cat /path/to/same/file > /dev/null" | 07:34 |
| greezmunkey | tim__: can you paste the result of: sudo iptables -L -to http://paste.ubuntu.com | 07:34 |
| Qi | hi | 07:35 |
| greezmunkey | tim__: can you paste the result of: 'sudo iptables -L' -to http://paste.ubuntu.com | 07:35 |
| Qi | what this ? | 07:35 |

| Jordan_U | TheMusicGuy: With an Ubuntu liveCD iso on my machine the first command takes 10 seconds, while the second takes 0.1 seconds because the entire file was already cached in ram for the second run. | 07:36 |
| onetinsoldier | Qi: it's supprt channel for Ubuntu Linux OS | 07:36 |
| shadow-wolf | does anyone know why wget won't use a proxy serv even though http_proxy is set and i even set proxy info into /etc/wgetrc | 07:36 |

| bigbrovar | hi guys, I am trying to upgrade from a (clean install of) hardy to lucid but am getting the following errors http://pastebin.com/zZwZdHqr | 07:38 |
| tim__ | onetinsoldier sorry, don't know about that | 07:38 |
| onetinsoldier | tim__: no worries | 07:38 |
| shadow-wolf | lol my question got ignored o.O | 07:39 |
| tim__ | onetinsoldier how do I paste to that when my browser does not work? | 07:39 |
| theadmin | bigbrovar: And why do that? Just install Lucid straight away... As far as I'm aware, updating from Hardy will be possible only somewhere around the end of may | 07:39 |
| bigbrovar | like I said I tried upgrading from a clean install of hardy.. didn't install anything or add any PPA or 3rd party repo. the first thing i did was to update the hardy installation and try to upgrade. :( | 07:39 |
| theadmin | ubottu: pastebinit | tim__ | 07:40 |
| ubottu | tim__: pastebinit is the command-line equivalent of !pastebin - Command output, or other text can be redirected to pastebinit, which then reports an URL containing the output - To use pastebinit, install the « pastebinit » package from a package manager - Simple usage: command | pastebinit -b http://paste.ubuntu.com | 07:40 |
| capletonX | Hi all. Are there any URXVT users here? | 07:40 |
| dhikr | hi all ! how to print in black&white on lucid 10.04 ? thanks ! | 07:40 |
| greezmunkey | tim__: heh, good point - regardless, from what I saw f/w isn't the issue. | 07:40 |
| onetinsoldier | dhikr: on the gnome-terminal, go to... Edit --> Profiles | 07:41 |
| bigbrovar | theadmin: because the laptop does not have a cdrom drive and usb install doesnt work. the only option was to do a pxe boot install and only hardy was available for installing via pxe boot.. believe me I am not one for a life of pain | 07:41 |
| theadmin | bigbrovar: Oh man... :/ | 07:41 |
| bigbrovar | theadmin: what could be the problem, cus I this is just plain hardy install .. its really weird | 07:42 |
| capletonX | so no URXVT users here?! | 07:42 |
| TheMusicGuy | dhikr: I'm not on 10.04, but I would assume its the same as before, whereby you have to utilize the model-specific options of your printer via System -> Administration -> Printers | 07:42 |
| theadmin | bigbrovar: I tell ya, the update from Hardy to Lucid system is not done yet. | 07:42 |
| onetinsoldier | dhikr: if that's what you meant.. did you mean get black&white on terminal in X? | 07:42 |
| theadmin | capletonX: Ask the real question | 07:42 |
| superjoe | is there a reported bug for firefox taking a long time to "look up" a domain in Lucid? | 07:42 |
| vertigo42 | Hey, sorry, I'm new to linux. Just installed Xubuntu 10.04 and have sound problem with USB soundcard Mackie XD-2. It's shown on Mixer plugin as "Playback: Mackie XD-2 ANalog Stereo (pulseaudio mixer)", but there's no any sound. Any issues? | 07:42 |
| superjoe | I've confirmed it is firefox's problem and not my system's dns | 07:43 |
| dhikr | onetinsoldier sorry but i am new in the buisiness and i don't understand this line but i can open terminal | 07:43 |
| vertigo42 | on #xubuntu total silence | 07:43 |
| theadmin | superjoe: Not that I'm aware of | 07:43 |
| tim__ | greezmunkey: I am burning a new install cd and going to go that route, thanks for the help! | 07:43 |
| bigbrovar | theadmin: oh u mean the upgrade path from hardy to lucid is not yet complete? :S like from the ubuntu side of things? :( | 07:43 |
| shadow-wolf | question: does wget use http_proxy varible? | 07:43 |
| theadmin | bigbrovar: Well, yeah, from what I've read. | 07:43 |
| bigbrovar | shadow-wolf: yes it does | 07:43 |
| dhikr | themusicguy yes i do that and i scearch but no | 07:43 |
| onetinsoldier | dhikr: roger. i have to go. i wish you good luck | 07:43 |
| shadow-wolf | on ubuntu 10.04 it doesn't as it tries to resolve directly to the url | 07:44 |
| shadow-wolf | :/ | 07:44 |
| capletonX | Well I'm using URXVT with the pearl tabbed function, and I can't figure out how to change the background of the tab bar | 07:44 |
| Qi | so this isn't chatting room? | 07:44 |
| shadow-wolf | will supply pastebin now | 07:44 |
| capletonX | *perl | 07:44 |
| bigbrovar | theadmin: smh sigh.. this is suppose to be an enterprise edition? smh | 07:44 |
| * bigbrovar what am I gonna do now :( | 07:44 | |
| theadmin | Qi: It is not. | 07:44 |
| greezmunkey | superjoe: in firefox type about:config in the address bar, click through the warning. On the resulting page, about 3/4 of the way down look for: network.dns.disableIPv6 change the value to true, then restart firefox | 07:45 |
| theadmin | bigbrovar: who is "smh"? | 07:45 |
| TheMusicGuy | dhikr: I have a Canon MP150. On my system, the option to control b&w is accessed via System -> Adminstration -> Printing -> Canon -> Printer Options -> Color Model | 07:45 |
| bigbrovar | shadow-wolf: what is the output of echo $http_proxy | 07:45 |
| dhikr | onetinsoldier sorry but i am french and i am little in english langage | 07:45 |
| Qi | ok thanks . | 07:45 |
| TheMusicGuy | dhikr: for you it will probably be different because each printer has different options, even though many of them are just aliases. | 07:45 |
| dhikr | themusicguy just RBG | 07:46 |
| bigbrovar | theadmin: I am just frustrated that such an important thing like upgrade path for an LTS release is not done yet.. | 07:46 |
| vertigo42 | guys, I really need help with these sound drivers | 07:46 |
| superjoe | greezmunkey, hmm that would explain why google is still fast - they must support ipv6 | 07:46 |
| superjoe | thanks | 07:46 |
| superjoe | that was definitely the issue | 07:46 |
| theadmin | bigbrovar: There might be some issues, maybe follow the instructions in here: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading#Upgrade%20from%208.04%20LTS%20to%2010.04%20LTS | 07:46 |
| greezmunkey | superjoe: :) | 07:46 |
| TheMusicGuy | dhikr: What is the model of your printer? | 07:46 |
| theadmin | bigbrovar: Unsure whether it's done though | 07:46 |
| dhikr | themusicguy canon pixma ip1700 | 07:47 |
| bigbrovar | theadmin: thanks | 07:47 |
| AudicaLive | Hey guys, quick question. I've downloaded the new .iso for the Ubuntu 10.4 disk 3 times, and burned 6 cd's. the farthest i've been able to go is when it loads the brownish screen with the desktop = divinci dude symbol, then it appears to load (the disk tray whirrs) and then the screen goes black. It still stays litk, its on,m but all of the pixels are colored black.... | 07:48 |
| shadow-wolf | bigbrovar: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/TcaSJnSh | 07:48 |
| shadow-wolf | it weird cause if i ssh into the box it works fine | 07:49 |
| greezmunkey | AudicaLive: did you md5sum the disks? | 07:49 |
| AudicaLive | Greezmunkey, No, dont know how | 07:49 |
| greezmunkey | !md5sum > AudicaLive | 07:49 |
| ubottu | AudicaLive, please see my private message | 07:49 |
| TheMusicGuy | dhikr: I'm going to try to fake install a printer of your model to see what kind of options I get on my system. | 07:49 |
| theadmin | greezmunkey: Um, if they've been downloaded and burned that much... that's not the problem | 07:50 |
| bigbrovar | shadow-wolf: everything seems fine to me.. anyway to be really show try | 07:50 |
| greezmunkey | theadmin: you sure? | 07:50 |
| Jordan_U | AudicaLive: When booting the LiveCD press any key to get a menu with boot options, first try the "check disk for defects" option. | 07:50 |
| theadmin | greezmunkey: Well, quite. | 07:50 |
| bigbrovar | shadow-wolf: export http_proxy=http://proxy.ct:3128/ | 07:50 |
| dhikr | themusicguy do you want the page ? | 07:50 |
| greezmunkey | theadmin: it wouldn't hurt to check though | 07:50 |
| Jordan_U | AudicaLive: If that shows that the disk has been burned properly try pressing F6 and select the nomodeset option. | 07:51 |
| zerosquared | Hey guys | 07:51 |

| theadmin | zerosquared: Depends. For Ubuntu help only. | 07:51 |
| bigbrovar | shadow-wolf: also make your the parameters are correct cus wget falls back to port 80 if the parameters are wrong | 07:51 |
| theadmin | nishanth: sudo apt-get purge (your flash package) | 07:51 |
| TheMusicGuy | dhikr: I don't think I need it at the moment | 07:51 |
| zerosquared | Well of course it is help with Ubuntu :D | 07:51 |

| MeXTuX | Firefox java plugin is not working : ( I typed this: sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/libjavaplugin.so firefox-javaplugin.so /usr/lib/j2sdk1.6-sun/jre/lib/i386/libnpjp2.so 1 and then restarted Firefox and typed about:plugins and java plugin didn't show up | 07:52 |
| zerosquared | Jordan_U would it be possible to get support on my issue? | 07:53 |
| theadmin | About that... shouldn't update-alternatives have some nice GUI installed by default for new users? That "Preffered applications" of GNOME is really of no good. | 07:53 |
| nishanth | theadmin : i tried using synaptic to remove it completely and it gives me the following msg | 07:53 |
| nishanth | theadmin : E: flashplugin-installer: subprocess installed pre-removal script returned error exit status 2 | 07:53 |
| Jordan_U | zerosquared: You have to wait and see. If anyone knows how to help they will. | 07:54 |
| stopsign | how to fix remote desktop refresh bug in 10.04 ? after login cursor moves and thats it no refresh, on lan or biddies pc across town | 07:54 |
| theadmin | nishanth: o_O No idea | 07:54 |
| zerosquared | Maybe I should just post on the forums. | 07:54 |
| theadmin | zerosquared: Might be a good idea to do that too, IRC takes a lot of waiting :D | 07:54 |
| zerosquared | I thought for sure there would have been at least one Android Dev in here. :D | 07:54 |
| AudicaLive | the checksum works. | 07:55 |
| greezmunkey | Jordan_U: that nomodeset option is a nice one, can get an install off the ground at least. Thanks I learned something :) | 07:55 |
| theadmin | Jordan_U: Wud it does by the way | 07:55 |
| karsten | How would I check for factoids on HAL and keyboard problems? | 07:56 |
| Jordan_U | greezmunkey: You're welcome. | 07:56 |
| disappearedng | Hey whenever I press delete in mysql-client, I am getting ~. Any idea? | 07:56 |
| bigbrovar | theadmin: actually the link u sent was what I followed when trying to do the upgrade | 07:56 |
| karsten | There's wiki.ubuntu.com article: "Problem: Keyboard input ceasing to work, but HAL seems to be fine | 07:56 |
| theadmin | bigbrovar: oh. Bleh. | 07:56 |
| karsten | (I'm in console, cut/paste is a bit tendious). | 07:56 |
| AudicaLive | Any more ideas? | 07:56 |
| theadmin | karsten: There is NO HAL required by the default install in 10.04, so that's a bit outdated | 07:56 |
| Jordan_U | theadmin: It disables kernel mode setting, which with ATI and Nvidia is sometimes not as stable as the old mode switching in the X server. | 07:56 |
| AudicaLive | Should I try an older Ubuntu release? if so, where do I get it? | 07:57 |
| theadmin | Jordan_U: ...was better not to ask, did not understand a thing. lol. | 07:57 |
| karsten | theadmin: Feh. Sounded plausible given my symptoms. | 07:57 |
| shadow-wolf | bigbrovar ok but why when i change default proxy in /etc/wgetrc does it only use the proxy when i sudo wget :/ and not only wget | 07:57 |
| karsten | theadmin: Anything else which might cause kbd/mouse to not respond once X starts? | 07:57 |
| Jordan_U | AudicaLive: Try pressing F6 and select the nomodeset option. | 07:57 |
| greezmunkey | AudicaLive: look up at teh response from Jordan_U | 07:57 |
| karsten | theadmin: This is the URL: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Troubleshooting/HalBreaksKeyboardAndMouse | 07:58 |
| TheMusicGuy | dhikr: hm...unfortunately, it looks like that driver doesn't have very many options to choose from. | 07:58 |
| TheMusicGuy | dhikr: Like you, my only color option is "RGB" | 07:58 |
| TheMusicGuy | dhikr: you might have to use a different driver if you want to get grayscale support. | 07:59 |
| bigbrovar | shadow-wolf: I didnt get you there.. can you try rephrasing. Is it working now? | 07:59 |
| AudicaLive | Jordan/greez how do check that if I can't see anything on screen. | 08:00 |
| TheMusicGuy | dhikr: alternatively, some applications that support printing may have the option to send a document that is already grayscale to a printer. | 08:00 |
| theadmin | karsten: Don't really know anything about the issue :D I just informed you that HAL is not required by default 10.04/Lucid install | 08:00 |
| AudicaLive | I tried, and nothing appeared on screen. its' like it's just a backlit blank black screen | 08:00 |
| greezmunkey | AudicaLive: what hardware? | 08:00 |
| karsten | theadmin: OK. *do* seem to have hald installed, though it doesn't appear to be running. | 08:01 |
| theadmin | karsten: It runs only if required by an application (say, KDE requires it still) | 08:01 |
| TheMusicGuy | dhikr: sorry I could not be of more help. | 08:01 |

| TheMusicGuy | dhikr: it seems the printing options for Firefox are Dependant on the printer driver. On my system, the "color" option of the "Print" dialog is only available if I choose to use a printer that has color options in the driver. | 08:05 |
| worldsayshi | Why are options included in the printout when using echo? How can this be prevented? | 08:05 |
| TheMusicGuy | dhikr: one option you may try is to install a PDF printer, then print to that. | 08:05 |
| bigbrovar | shadow-wolf: oh so it works when u add proxy parameters to /etc/wgetrc? but you have to do it with sudo? | 08:05 |
| TheMusicGuy | dhikr: The PDF printer has a color option. | 08:05 |
| theadmin | worldsayshi: I actually have this problem too, very annoying, so asking this too. | 08:05 |
| shadow-wolf | bigbrovar: yea :/ and when i ssh into the box it works perfectly no sudo needed | 08:06 |
| shadow-wolf | bigbrovar using only export http_proxy | 08:06 |
| bigbrovar | shadow-wolf: well its because u are using the systemwide config for wget which is in /etc | 08:06 |
| linuxmoi | hello | 08:06 |
| nerxgas | where can i find a list of usb wifi sticks that are supported by the kernel? | 08:06 |
| bigbrovar | try looking if there is a .wgetrc file in your home directory | 08:07 |
| AudicaLive | Jordan, the f6 thing didnt accomplish anything, it's basically just a backlit screen | 08:07 |
| shadow-wolf | bigbrovar ok but why does wget work fine through ssh using export http_proxy but not on the actual machine | 08:07 |
| bigbrovar | shadow-wolf: the settings in /etc/wgetrc is probably not readable to a normal user | 08:07 |
| TheMusicGuy | dhikr: After you've printed to the PDF printer, you get a file that has your printed document in it instead of an actual printer piece of paper. You can then print that PDF file with your Canon printer and it should print it in grayscale. | 08:07 |
| Futsuriai | Hello, anyway to check the speed at which your CPU is currently running? I feel like it's never kicking into full gear since installing 10.04 | 08:08 |
| dhikr | themusicguy if you want, in one i have virtualboxpuel+windowsxp but my printer is grey in virtualbox puel | 08:08 |
| CogitoErgoSam | futsuriai I'm pretty sure there's a panel applet for that | 08:08 |
| karsten | Futsuriai: /proc/cpuinfo | 08:08 |
| nishanth | anyone know wat the F_*k is this msg mean....E: flashplugin-installer: subprocess installed pre-removal script returned error exit status 2 | 08:09 |
| Futsuriai | karsten, CogitoErgoSam, I was not running gnome but I'll try running the panel see, thanks (and the command line version) | 08:09 |
| TheMusicGuy | dhikr: what is puel? | 08:09 |
| bigbrovar | shadow-wolf: well your first lesson.. when u change your proxy settings you have to tell bash to use the new proxy settings. and the way to do that is to either source it by doing source .bashrc (if the proxy is added to your bashrc file in your homedir) or just log out and log in again | 08:09 |
| karsten | Futsuriai: open a shell. 'cat /proc/cpuinfo' | 08:09 |
| bigbrovar | shadow-wolf: the reason it works with ssh is because ssh starts a new bash session which uses the proxy parameter | 08:10 |
| Futsuriai | karsten, it seems to just tell me the max cpu frequency, not the current one | 08:10 |
| HektoR | hello guys... i want to have two monitor on ubuntu with one video card, can anyone share some how to about this ? | 08:10 |
| karsten | nishanth: /var/lib/dpkg/info/flashplugin-instaler.prerm failed. Try running it manually invoking with 'bash -x <filename>' | 08:10 |
| AudicaLive | Does any one have an idea how to fix my problem? | 08:10 |
| Futsuriai | Ok, karsten, I can't read | 08:10 |
| dhikr | themusicguy puel is virtualbox no opensource | 08:10 |
| Futsuriai | Thanks :) | 08:10 |
| karsten | Futsuriai: Should be one and the same, though I may be wrong on that. | 08:10 |
| AudicaLive | HektoR, do you have two montior outputs on your video card or is it a laptop? | 08:10 |
| nishanth | karsten : plz explain a little bit more... i am not so used to linux | 08:11 |
| nishanth | i am trying to remove the flash player and reinstall it | 08:11 |
| Ddddd | Welcome | 08:11 |
| HektoR | AudicaLive: i have a desktop. and also i have two monitor output | 08:11 |
| karsten | nishanth: I don't have the time now, sorrw. | 08:11 |
| Ddddd | Welcome | 08:11 |
| AudicaLive | Does it work in windows? | 08:11 |
| Futsuriai | karsten, now that that's out of the way, is there some reason it won't up the cpu frequency to 100% when running at 99% usage | 08:11 |
| TheMusicGuy | dhikr: It may be possible to connect your printer to a guest OS running in virtualbox, but that pushes the limit of my experience. | 08:11 |
| Ddddd | Welcome | 08:12 |
| Ddddd | Welcome | 08:12 |
| shadow-wolf | bigbrovar ok tried that same result | 08:12 |
| Flannel | Ddddd: Please stop that | 08:12 |
| TheMusicGuy | dhikr: I have not had much luck connecting devices to virtual machines in Linux. | 08:12 |
| AudicaLive | Helloooooooo??? anyone have an answer to my question? | 08:12 |
| karsten | Futsuriai: Unless you're using a speedstep CPU (in which case you should get og messages indicating CPU speed changes), the CPu runs at the same frequency all the time. | 08:12 |
| karsten | Futsuriai: speedstep was tried and largely withdrawn in the early 2000s. | 08:12 |
| Ddddd | Welcome | 08:12 |
| Ddddd | Welcome | 08:12 |
| Ddddd | dundun | 08:13 |

| dhikr | themusicguy ok no problem , i tell you a lot of thanks for your help , i shearch and maybe a solution | 08:13 |
| karsten | Futsuriai: You can also disable speedstep with kernel options, though you'll have to research how. As I said originally: /proc/cpuinfo's reading is almost certainly valid. | 08:13 |
| bigbrovar | shadow-wolf: tried what? sourcing? restarting? | 08:14 |
| Futsuriai | karsten, I don't disagree... hm... ok, I'll investigate along this avenue, thanks | 08:14 |
| TheMusicGuy | dhikr: you're welcome. I know printing can be difficult on Linux based systems sometimes, especially with newer printers. | 08:14 |
| worldsayshi | Does anyone know how to not include options in a echo printout? | 08:14 |

| Ddddd | eat | 08:15 |
| karsten | worldsayshi: ??? | 08:15 |
| CogitoErgoSam | worldsayshi what exactly do you mean by options? And if its about a bash script, there's a channel for it at #bash | 08:15 |
| Ddddd | Welcome | 08:15 |
| llutz | worldsayshi: read "man echo" or "help echo" | 08:15 |
| shadow-wolf | bigbrovar: yea added export http_proxy=http://proxy.ct:3128 to .bashrc, sourced .bashrc and restarted, wget still doesn't use proxy | 08:15 |
| AudicaLive | Oh my god I am so sired of that guy saying welcome. | 08:15 |

| Flannel | AudicaLive: He's been taken care of, thanks. | 08:16 |
| theadmin | karsten: It no longer is required, so it's started on request as opposed to on boot, being, well, faster. | 08:16 |
| hubertchang_ | who can tell me http://plugins.intellij.net ip address? A insane question from China. :(. Thanks in advance. | 08:17 |
| karsten | theadmin: ... which means that it could still be the cause of my keyboard problems. | 08:17 |

| CogitoErgoSam | hubertchang seems to resolve to 213.182.181.98 from here | 08:17 |
| TheMusicGuy | dhikr: in case you are unable to find anything, try using the PDF printer Idea. You can install support for pdf printer using this command: sudo apt-get install cups-pdf | 08:17 |
| gamefreak264 | Welcome | 08:17 |
| AudicaLive | theadmin, do you know why I would be essentially getting a backlit screen when I load the Ubuntu Live disk? I've got a 10.4 iso, and it gets to the "desktopimage" = "davinci man circle" with a brown background (i'm guessing the loading screen) and turns to that black thing. Any ideas? | 08:18 |
| hubertchang_ | THanks. | 08:18 |
| theadmin | karsten: It's started on request, however, keep in mind that the default install does NOT require it. | 08:18 |
| hubertchang_ | CogitoErgoSam: Thanks. | 08:18 |
| bigbrovar | shadow-wolf: but it does via ssh? try adding proxy varable to /etc/profile /etc/bash.bashrc and /etc/environment and restart and see if that works | 08:18 |
| theadmin | AudicaLive: ... :/ No idea | 08:18 |
| uiyaw76ve346w8a9 | Welcome | 08:18 |
| theadmin | Flannel: Thanks! | 08:18 |
| shadow-wolf | bigbrovar: yea that what confusing me :/ ok adding it now will brb with results | 08:18 |
| CogitoErgoSam | hubertchange: bu yong xie :D | 08:18 |
| karsten | theadmin: So you say. However I find that 1) I've got it installed, 2) my kbd/mouse fail when X starts, and 3) this matches the description of HAL / kbd/mouse issues. | 08:19 |
| theadmin | karsten: as per 1, it is installed by default so that apps which require HAL can run. | 08:19 |
| karsten | theadmin: ... at which point dispositve evidence that it is in fact HAL are more interesting than assurances that it's not essential or installed by default. | 08:19 |
| hubertchang_ | :D | 08:20 |
| karsten | theadmin: Dude. It's installed. | 08:20 |
| theadmin | karsten: Yes. Does it run? No, as you stated before. | 08:20 |
| dhikr | themusicguy ok i have install but i don't know use pdfcups | 08:20 |
| AudicaLive | Am I being ignored or something? | 08:20 |
| karsten | theadmin: Um. That's kinda what I'm trying to sort out. | 08:20 |
| theadmin | AudicaLive: If nobody knows, nobody answers. | 08:20 |
| karsten | theadmin: Anyhow, thanks, but you're not halping. | 08:20 |
| TheMusicGuy | dhikr: You install it like a printer using the System -> Adminstration -> Printers dialog. | 08:21 |
| theadmin | karsten: Well, sorry, I can't really help with your issue... all I tried to do was to inform you that HAL does not start on boot anymore. | 08:21 |
| dhikr | themusicguy thanks ! | 08:21 |
| karsten | theadmin: Dude. I got it already. | 08:21 |
| theadmin | karsten: And then you thought I can help :P and it started... So... whatever. Sorry. | 08:21 |

| theadmin | karsten: Uh. Yes, it's me who told you that, no? | 08:25 |
| shadow-wolf | bigbrovar i think it a bug in ubuntu somewere :/ cause that didn't fix either | 08:26 |

| robertzaccour | Gryllida, i don't see save anywhere. i can rotate, but saving, i can't find the button | 08:29 |
| theadmin | biborn: I told ya just NOW! Type "/msg username message" (example: /msg theadmin blah) (do not use quotes) | 08:29 |
| greezmunkey | shadow-wolf: I missed you ?? what's going on (or not) | 08:30 |
| theadmin | robertzaccour: Maybe he doesn't have a X | 08:30 |

| KOPRajs | hi, where can I get info on what's new in updated package? | 08:31 |
| shadow-wolf | wget won't use proxy when i export http_proxy on the box, uses proxy when i set proxy in wgetrc, but then onlt when i sudo wget, wget works perfectly through ssh | 08:31 |
| theadmin | What is "XF86..." stuff in that keyboard shortcuts thingy? | 08:31 |
| Gryllida | KOPRajs, release notes, might be in its readme somewhere | 08:31 |
| shadow-wolf | @greezmunkey | 08:31 |
| karsten | shadow-wolf: "in the box?" Are you invoking wget in a subshell of whatever process that is? | 08:32 |

| robertzaccour | Gryllida, it didin't do anything :( | 08:32 |
| theadmin | Flannel: What the? | 08:32 |
| Flannel | theadmin: what? | 08:32 |
| Gryllida | robertzaccour, hmm. | 08:32 |
| KOPRajs | Gryllida: I mean I just installed some updates and I want to know what bugs they possibly fix? | 08:32 |
| theadmin | Flannel: You just banned someone who didn't even say anything | 08:32 |
| Gryllida | KOPRajs, this is called release notes, depends on package, what were you updating. | 08:33 |
| felon | firefox comes with ubuntu. | 08:33 |
| felon | is there any other options to use | 08:33 |
| KOPRajs | Gryllida: e.g. HAL | 08:33 |
| Flannel | theadmin: I forwarded them to ##fix_your_connection, because they've been bouncing on and off a couple of times every minute for a dozen minutes now. | 08:33 |
| theadmin | felon: Google Chrome, Opera, abrowser... | 08:33 |
| greezmunkey | shadow-wolf: bugger...obviously a permissions thing...looking to see if I can find anything that will help. | 08:33 |
| theadmin | Flannel: I see... I hide joins and quits so I didn't notice | 08:34 |
| felon | what do you use theadmin | 08:34 |
| * theadmin uses Firefox, felon, it's nice | 08:34 | |
| H0Li | Is there a way to check what drivers my tablet is using (after I plug it in)? | 08:34 |
| KOPRajs | Gryllida: where can I find release notes for the package? | 08:34 |
| karsten | felon: options for what? Other browsers? Yes. | 08:34 |
| shadow-wolf | yea but this on a clean install on ubuntu 10.04 desktop, having same issue on the server edition i just installed | 08:34 |
| karsten | fekonqueror, dillo (very minimal GUI browser), w3m, links, lynx (console browsers). | 08:34 |
| shadow-wolf | greezmunkey everything else uses proxy fine it only wget :/ | 08:35 |

| TheMusicGuy | theadmin: Don't question the ops! They always have a good reason for their actions. :D | 08:35 |
| TheMusicGuy | usually. | 08:35 |
| nishanth | karsten : did wat you told but still did not remove flash player | 08:35 |
| theadmin | TheMusicGuy: Well, depends, I knew an op who'd kick everyone whose nick would start with "f"... :/ | 08:35 |
| Gryllida | KOPRajs, might be in /usr/share/doc/hal/README, not sure | 08:35 |
| theadmin | TheMusicGuy: Another channel, though, obviously :D | 08:35 |
| karsten | H0Li: lsmod. 'dmesg' should show how it was detected. 'tail -10f /var/og/messages' as you plug it in / disconnect it should show how the device is registered. Um. /var/log messages (sticky '' key here). | 08:36 |
| Futsuriai | Ok, so I've confirmed that my cpu scaling is stuck at the lowest setting though I can't see why as it was not in previous versions and I can't find any instances of this problem online | 08:36 |
| TheMusicGuy | yes. f-banning would lead to losing privileges here, I imagine. | 08:36 |
| karsten | nishanth: You should have got a bunch of messages from that. Pastebin them. | 08:36 |
| nishanth | karsten : actually i got none | 08:37 |
| Flannel | theadmin, TheMusicGuy: That's not how it works. Especially because sometimes we make mistakes, tab complete snags the wrong person, etc. | 08:37 |
| karsten | |tell nishanth about pastebin | 08:37 |

| nishanth | karsten : i installed openjdk-6 to fix smthg in flash player but then had to remove it | 08:39 |
| greezmunkey | shadow-wolf: did you edit wgetrc ? | 08:39 |
| shadow-wolf | greezmunkey yip | 08:40 |
| nishanth | karsten: after that the flash wont work properly | 08:40 |
| hubertchang_ | is "host -t a abc.example.com" nis aware? | 08:40 |
| Gryllida | KOPRajs, I found http://changelogs.ubuntu.com/changelogs/pool/main/h/hal/hal_0.5.14-0ubuntu5/changelog ; the algorithm is to find the package at packages.ubuntu.com & hit changelog link at the right | 08:40 |
| shadow-wolf | greezmunkey wget doesn't use proxy sudo wget does | 08:40 |
| daishadar | are there any more big disadvantages to running 64bit ubuntu (like flash not working, etc)? or have these issues been ironed out by now? | 08:40 |
| TheMusicGuy | oh hey, just so I'm not wasting bandwidth: I'm planning on upgrading to 10.04 in a few days. Has anyone had any issues performing an upgrade as opposed to a full install? | 08:40 |
| theadmin | daishadar: Unfortunately they have not. | 08:40 |
| KOPRajs | Gryllida: nice, that's what I was looking for... thank you | 08:40 |
| theadmin | TheMusicGuy: Yeah, well not from Karmic to Lucid, but update from Jaunty to Karmic broke my X | 08:41 |
| Gryllida | TheMusicGuy, update should be just fine, but backup your data anyways | 08:41 |
| shadow-wolf | greezmunkey i think it a bug lol :/ but no one else seems to have the problem | 08:41 |
| robertzaccour | Gryllida, i tried with gimp but it says error read only file system | 08:41 |
| daishadar | theadmin: oh... still flash problems? | 08:41 |
| nishanth | karsten ; so now i been trying very hard to remove and reinstall flash | 08:41 |
| theadmin | daishadar: Yeah :( | 08:41 |
| neurodamage | TheMusicGuy: nope :) | 08:41 |
| Gryllida | robertzaccour, try running gimp as root for experiment, check the permissions for that partition | 08:41 |
| theadmin | Gryllida: gimp? Don't you mean gparted? gimp has nothing to do with partitions o-O | 08:42 |
| robertzaccour | Gryllida, how do i do that? | 08:42 |
| Gryllida | theadmin, user can't save file in gimp | 08:42 |
| TheMusicGuy | Do the free (libre) X drivers for nvidia support compositing yet? | 08:42 |
| greezmunkey | shadow-wolf: yes, I'm finding some pretty interesting stuff...had to add in the proxy server and authentication settings to wgetrc to get it to connect | 08:42 |
| theadmin | Gryllida: ahhhh | 08:42 |
| TheMusicGuy | as of 10.04? | 08:42 |
| Gryllida | robertzaccour, um. no clear idea. might be "sudo gimp" | 08:42 |
| theadmin | Gryllida: Wrong, "gksu gimp", robertzaccour, you don't sudo with graphical apps | 08:43 |
| Gryllida | ok | 08:43 |
| llutz | robertzaccour: where do you want to write files to? (what directory) | 08:43 |
| KOPRajs | Gryllida: lol, but the last change acording to changelog is 1st April... how's possible that I got the package updated in last few days? :) | 08:43 |
| robertzaccour | thanks | 08:43 |
| Gryllida | KOPRajs, your package version? | 08:43 |
| robertzaccour | llutz, i'm just trying to save it after rotating | 08:43 |
| karsten | nishanth: Yes, I undrestandWwunderstand. Take a look at that file, see if you can figure anything out about it. Running it as 'bash -x <file> should produce *some* output. if it doesn't, there's something wrong with the file (like: it's empty). | 08:43 |
| llutz | robertzaccour: where do you want to write files to? (what directory not what file) | 08:43 |
| karsten | nishanth: but I've got to got to sleep now. Good night. | 08:44 |
| ouissam | hi world | 08:44 |
| Gryllida | hi hi just ask | 08:44 |
| Susanne_ | Hello Everybody! I have a corrupted reiserfs. Are there any tools that let me see some infos like directories without attempting a rescue with reiserfsck? reiserfsck asks me a scaringly number of options and im afraid i will ruin the partition. | 08:44 |
| KOPRajs | Gryllida: ...0ubuntu6 | 08:44 |
| shadow-wolf | greezmunkey i even tried copying the /etc/wgetrc to ~/.wgetrc :/ still nothing, as wget still won't use proxy unless i sudo it | 08:44 |
| ouissam | this is a support cat or what ?? | 08:44 |
| robertzaccour | llutz, desktop, just so i can upload to a site and delete right after | 08:44 |
| tarzeau | Susanne_: you don't have a backup? | 08:44 |
| Gryllida | KOPRajs, what? HAL version 0ubuntu6? | 08:44 |
| tarzeau | Susanne_: maybe make a mirror of the partition first, and don't use reiserfs anymore | 08:44 |
| llutz | robertzaccour: "ls -ld ~/Desktop" | 08:44 |
| ouissam | anyone speaking sapnish here = | 08:44 |
| ouissam | ?? | 08:45 |
| greezmunkey | shadow-wolf: stupid question: What's wrong with sudo-ing it? | 08:45 |

| theadmin | ouissam: > Escribe "/join #ubuntu-es" (sin comillas) y dale a enter. | 08:46 |
| KOPRajs | Gryllida: I was just lazy to write the first part of version since it is the same... but it seems I've got newer version than the newest in the changelog :) | 08:46 |
| Gryllida | KOPRajs, no wonder, I see only "Package: hal (0.5.14-0ubuntu5) " at the packages.ubuntu.com, your version is newer, I'll try to figure it out where else to search; do you have a "/usr/share/doc/hal/changelog"? | 08:46 |
| ouissam | i want to talk about forex | 08:47 |
| shadow-wolf | greezmunkey :/ nothing though desktop version you shouldn't have to sudo wget to download anything :/ | 08:47 |

| ubottu | ouissam: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 08:47 |
| shadow-wolf | greezmunkey plus anyone wanting to use winetricks :/ will need sudo rights | 08:47 |
| KOPRajs | Gryllida: only changelog.debian.gz | 08:47 |
| Flannel | Gryllida: If you're only worried about changes in a single package: http://changelogs.ubuntu.com/changelogs/pool/main/h/hal/hal_0.5.14-0ubuntu5/changelog (linked on the rightside of http://packages.ubuntu.com/lucid/hal ) | 08:47 |
| Gryllida | KOPRajs, is it a text file, or an archive? no idea what .gz is, can you openit? | 08:47 |
| shadow-wolf | greezmunkey and in deployment not all users must have sudo rights anyways, but they should still have option to download | 08:48 |
| TheMusicGuy | Back to my ramdisk idea earlier, I want to copy certain programs and/or directories into a ramdisk during startup and copy them back to the hdd during shutdown. This should happen before I log in and as close to the end of the reboot/shutdown sequence as possible, respectively. I'm assuming there are probably scripts I can edit for that, but I don't know which ones. | 08:48 |
| KOPRajs | Gryllida: might be because I have unsupported updates allowed? | 08:48 |
| Gryllida | Flannel, we're about v.same-ubuntu6 | 08:48 |
| shadow-wolf | greezmunkey plus this bug affects desktop and server :/ so not ideal for ubuntu | 08:48 |
| nascentmind | hi. I am trying to install pylucene in karmic but it installs it for python 2.5 and not python 2.6 . How do i fix it? | 08:48 |
| rww | KOPRajs: "apt-cache policy hal" would tell you where the newer version came from, assuming it's from a repository you have enabled. | 08:48 |
| Gryllida | KOPRajs, might be the reason, yes, can you open that change log though and what server did you get the package from | 08:48 |
| Flannel | Gryllida: Ah, he got that from -proposed I imagine | 08:48 |
| theadmin | Or backports? | 08:49 |
| Flannel | theadmin: There wouldn't be lucid-backports yet, and HAL would probably not get backported anyway | 08:49 |
| theadmin | Flannel: oh. | 08:49 |
| TheMusicGuy | I would presume using cp -a so that datestamps and permissions stay intact. | 08:49 |
| KOPRajs | Gryllida: it is from: http://ubuntu.sh.cvut.cz/ lucid-proposed/main Packages | 08:49 |
| nascentmind | anybody? | 08:49 |
| Gryllida | !anybody | 08:50 |
| ubottu | 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? | 08:50 |
| theadmin | sh.cvut.cz... whozat o_O | 08:50 |
| shadow-wolf | bleh gonna try reinstall wget :/ cause no one having answer here see if that fixes it | 08:50 |
| KOPRajs | theadmin: just local mirror | 08:50 |
| PKR1 | the answer is reinstall wget | 08:50 |
| greezmunkey | shadow-wolf: have you tried teh bind address option in wget? | 08:51 |
| TheMusicGuy | Oh, better yet, maybe I could copy the entire ramdisk IMAGE into a file at shutdown, then reload it back into memory at startup? Is that practical, or even possible? | 08:51 |
| Gryllida | KOPRajs, can you not open that change log file yet? | 08:51 |
| mukeshh | hi needed help on ubuntu destop release 10.04 | 08:51 |
| Gryllida | !details | mukeshh | 08:51 |
| ubottu | mukeshh: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." | 08:51 |
| mukeshh | i m using ubuntu 10.04..needed to install a printer on network namely HP Laserjet M 1005 | 08:52 |
| KOPRajs | Gryllida: yes, by: gunzip -c /usr/share/doc/hal/changelog.Debian.gz | 08:53 |
| HexLaTor | does the VMware supports the 3D acceleration => Compiz for Lucid ? | 08:53 |
| nascentmind | Gryllida: I already asked. | 08:53 |
| shadow-wolf | greezmunkey still nothing | 08:53 |
| Gryllida | KOPRajs, looks like an archive, what's inside? | 08:53 |
| syn-ack | HexLaTor, Depends on the card and the driver. | 08:54 |
| nascentmind | I have installed pylucene in karmic but it installs it in python2.5 directory and not 2.6 . How can i fix it? | 08:54 |
| greezmunkey | shadow-wolf: there is also "--no-proxy" as an arguement, seems counter intuitive, but maybe worth a shot? | 08:54 |
| llutz | Gryllida: "zless /usr/share/doc/hal/changelog.Debian.gz" no need to gunzip | 08:55 |
| KOPRajs | Gryllida: it is gzipped changelog but only changelog of the debian package I think... so there are nothing about changes between ...-ubuntu5 and ...-ubuntu6 hal packages | 08:55 |
| zniavre | hello | 08:55 |
| shadow-wolf | greezmunkey lol that ruins the point of what i trying to do, cause all http traffic goes through proxy at my work :P | 08:55 |
| Gryllida | zniavre, hi just ask :) | 08:56 |
| shadow-wolf | greezmunkey but tried it nothing changed | 08:56 |
| zniavre | how can i make emesene working inside indicator-applet | 08:56 |
| erebus | Do DVD drives normally get labelled as /media/cdrom0 in fstab? (I just replaced an older cdrom drive with a ide DVD ROM and it says it can't get the permissions for the device, though it reads files ok. | 08:56 |
| zniavre | ? | 08:56 |
| zniavre | Gryllida, thank you | 08:56 |
| KOPRajs | Gryllida: last change in it is from 7th Feb 2004 | 08:56 |
| syn-ack | erebus, yes, they do | 08:56 |
| erebus | Thanks syn-ack | 08:56 |
| greezmunkey | shadow-wolf: heh, yeah I figured...is "--proxy-user={username}" and "--proxy-password={password}" already in your wgetrc? | 08:57 |
| mukeshh | pl help...using ubuntu 10.04 .needed help to install network printer namely HP Laserjet m1005 MFP | 08:57 |
| Gryllida | KOPRajs, did you install the http://ubuntu.sh.cvut.cz/ubuntu/ls-lR.gz ? | 08:57 |
| shadow-wolf | greezmunkey proxy doesn't require a user and password so no | 08:57 |
| greezmunkey | shadow-wolf: maybe for wget it does, since you are having to sudo to get it to work... | 08:58 |
| KOPRajs | Gryllida: what do you mean by install ls-IR.gz? | 08:58 |
| Gryllida | KOPRajs, I tried to go to the server you mentioned, looks like an FTP, what was the package that you took from there? | 08:59 |
| shadow-wolf | greezmunkey but then why when i ssh into the box everything works fine :/ | 09:00 |
| shadow-wolf | greezmunkey with my current configuration | 09:00 |
| KOPRajs | Gryllida: the server is of course ftp... it is just local mirror of the Ubuntu repository -> there is the same | 09:00 |
| greezmunkey | shadow-wolf: what are you using as a proxy server, the software? | 09:01 |
| KOPRajs | Gryllida: I choose to download all packages from there because the server is close... the main one is on the other side of the world | 09:02 |
| Gryllida | KOPRajs, but the official repo contains only version 5, while you got version 6; what was the exact file you took? | 09:02 |
| Gryllida | KOPRajs, from your server? | 09:02 |
| guntbert | greezmunkey: to see if that is an issue with wget or with your current environment: use w3m from the commandline - if it uses the proxy in the same context where wget does not then the wget config must be to blame | 09:03 |
| KOPRajs | Gryllida: I didn't took any file manually... it was installed automatically by apt-get update from that repo... the package is hal-0.5.14-0ubuntu6 and must have been released during last few days... | 09:04 |
| greezmunkey | shadow-wolf: You see that? ^^^ | 09:04 |
| Gryllida | KOPRajs, okay, I see | 09:04 |
| Gryllida | KOPRajs, wait a bit | 09:04 |
| === ugliefrog_ is now known as xfrog | ||
| === simon_ is now known as Guest15922 | ||
| KOPRajs | Gryllida: and it is from proposed repo... I just cannot find any info about what's new in the package :) | 09:05 |
| shadow-wolf | guntbert how i use w3m ? | 09:05 |
| iceroot | shadow-wolf: w3m url | 09:05 |
| asraniel | hello. network manager reports all my interfaces as "unmanaged". i can manualy (dhclient) connect to my wired network. how can i cure network manager? i tried reinstalling it. | 09:05 |
| greezmunkey | guntbert: same for lynx browser as well? | 09:05 |
| shadow-wolf | bleh w3m works fine | 09:05 |
| === sladen_ is now known as sladen | ||
| guntbert | greezmunkey: yes, lynx is as well used | 09:06 |
| guntbert | shadow-wolf: then you can be certain that somehow the wget confi got messed up - next step: compare the .wgetrc in /root and in your home dir | 09:07 |
| greezmunkey | guntbert: I have to agree shadow-wolf can use other software, just not wget (for some as yet inexplicable reason) | 09:07 |
| greezmunkey | guntbert: yet with sudo, it works, so it has to be permissions related. | 09:08 |
| guntbert | greezmunkey: my goal was to clearly distinguish if it is connected with being on CLI vs GUI | 09:08 |
| KOPRajs | Gryllida: I'm trying to find this out because I actually have a little problem with HAL not properly mounting my VFAT volume (I can't open files with accents on it)... it was working fine in karmic... so I'm waiting for a fix i HAL | 09:08 |
| shadow-wolf | guntbert there is no .wgetrc in root | 09:08 |
| greezmunkey | guntbert: understood. | 09:08 |
| shadow-wolf | guntbert */root | 09:08 |
| guntbert | shadow-wolf: ok - please rename your .wgetrc to .wgetrc-fail and start wget again | 09:09 |
| shadow-wolf | lol | 09:09 |
| greezmunkey | shadow-wolf: can you try putting your username/pword in a wget command to see what happens? | 09:09 |
| greezmunkey | fail, heh | 09:10 |
| guntbert | greezmunkey: need not be a permissions problem - I suspect a borked .wgetrc | 09:10 |
| shadow-wolf | guntbert no .wgetrc is created when i use wget | 09:10 |
| HexLaTor | FAIL ! | 09:10 |
| asraniel | such a shame that this horrible networkmanager bug exists. had it twice in a week.. like that i can't upgrade my gf's laptop... | 09:10 |
| greezmunkey | guntbert: why not, right - it has to be something simple. | 09:10 |
| shadow-wolf | 10.04 lol is such a fail for me at the moment i having this issue with desktop and server | 09:11 |
| shadow-wolf | :/ | 09:11 |
| guntbert | shadow-wolf: and does wget work as expected (it *should* pick up the proxy settings from the environment if I remember correctly ) | 09:12 |
| shadow-wolf | guntbert nope doesn't use proxy | 09:12 |
| greezmunkey | guntbert: according to the manpage that is correct. | 09:12 |
| shadow-wolf | what i don't get is how when i ssh into the same account it works, but on the host machine it fails to read the varibles | 09:13 |
| meuhlavache | hi, and bye ! :) | 09:14 |
| shadow-wolf | i even reinstalled wget and same issue | 09:14 |
| guntbert | shadow-wolf: have a look at /etc/wgetrc -- thats the system master, used when there is no user file | 09:14 |

| Julia | Hey People! When you use fdisk and delete a partition and then recreate it from the same beginning but make it larger - will reiserfs notice that and refuse to mount it? I know that its not a valid ways to resize a partition. Im trying to find a lost reiser partition and wonder if i guessed the beginning correctly and reiser does not mount anyway because of wrong ending. | 09:51 |
| hans_ | _--_ | 09:51 |
| Name141 | swapy: so there is longer on hardy than there is on 9.10 ? | 09:51 |

| Name141 | swapy: there is more support left on hardy , than there is on 9.10 ? | 09:52 |
| Name141 | in terms of time | 09:52 |

| SuperJane | i found 'screem' | 09:57 |
| theDom | swapy, it doesnt give me the usual screen options, or dual screen options because the screen is connected to the motherboard(just didnt work at all connected to the graphics card) it does give me the option to save a file ".nvidia-settings-rc" in root, is that correct? | 09:57 |
| wesguin | gogeta1, but at least the hotkeys work for acpi stuff | 09:57 |
| SuperJane | but in the 10.04 | 09:57 |

| sicksquirrel | when I create partitions I have one for root, one for my data and a swap ( I don't need a seperate home partition ). the thing is, should I make them all primary or logical? and when I go for primary a lot of my disk space seems to be used, although its a new partition oO | 10:21 |
| wesguin | bbl | 10:22 |
| frostschutz | sicksquirrel: linux doesnt really care whether its on a primary or logical partition. if its a multi boot system you should save the first primary partition for windoze though | 10:22 |

| Radio-l | can someone give me a hand with this? I have a Windows 7 machine with a network share that I'd like to access. I can mount it through mount command using .smbcredentials, but accessing the machine through Nautilus prompts me for a password and I can't figure out how to make it work | 10:24 |

| aef | i'm looking for a guide on how to para-virtualize a ubuntu system on a debian lenny based xen hypervisor. any hint? | 10:24 |
| erUSUL | pkki: only in 64 bits is aviable (obviously) | 10:24 |
| frostschutz | sicksquirrel: some file systems reserve some space for root (ext by default 5%, you can change that with tune2fs though) | 10:24 |
| gogeta | Radio-l: the password can be anything | 10:25 |
| sicksquirrel | aaaah thx frostschutz | 10:25 |
| jetienne | q. is there a theme which fix the window decoration ? aka large window button + on the right ? | 10:25 |
| Radio-l | when I click on [Nameofsystem] under Network Places, even the correct password fails | 10:25 |
| pkki | gogeta, how do I make sure I have them all installed? | 10:25 |
| erUSUL | !controls | jetienne | 10:25 |
| ubottu | jetienne: In Lucid, the minimize, maximize, and close buttons have been moved to the left side. For more information, please see http://alturl.com/b6ja | To move them back to the right-hand side, see http://alturl.com/x5d6 | 10:25 |
| Radio-l | yet, performing a cifs mount with name and password supplied work fine | 10:25 |
| gogeta | Radio-l: any random password windows just likes to get one | 10:25 |
| jetienne | erUSUL: this doesnt answer my question tho | 10:26 |
| jetienne | erUSUL: i asked for a theme, not a kludge in a norner | 10:26 |
| pkki | ia32-libs|lib32stdc++5 | 10:26 |
| jetienne | erUSUL: norner=corner | 10:26 |
| pkki | i need these^ | 10:26 |
| Radio-l | gogeta: the problem is that no password works period | 10:26 |
| erUSUL | jetienne: use the human theme the one from previous versions of ubuntu | 10:26 |
| jetienne | erUSUL: how do i install it ? | 10:27 |
| gogeta | Radio-l:when it ask just use anything it makes no diffrence | 10:27 |
| pkki | hello? | 10:27 |
| gogeta | Radio-l: like afsdtrd | 10:27 |
| sicksquirrel | aaaand another thing. A friend told me I should go for 9.04 coz its the most stable. but 10.04 will be LTS and 9.04 support ends this year ( or has ended ) what should I choose? my main goal is to build a workstation for Houdini / Rendering / Compositing | 10:27 |
| erUSUL | pkki: sudo aptitude install ia32-libs | 10:27 |
| Radio-l | gogeta: I use anything and it fails. | 10:27 |
| pkki | i did that erUSUL | 10:27 |
| swapy | 10.04 is faster try it | 10:27 |
| teflon | i would recommend 10.4 | 10:27 |
| sicksquirrel | but is 10.04 bug free ? | 10:27 |
| erUSUL | pkki: and ? | 10:28 |
| swapy | ya its bug free | 10:28 |
| gogeta | Radio-l: works on my xp box when it ask for a user and pass i just enter random stuff and it connects | 10:28 |
| Radio-l | gogeta: it doesn't matter what password I give, whether it's valid or not, the system returns NT_STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL | 10:28 |
| teflon | nothing seems to be 'bug-free' :) | 10:28 |
| pkki | erUSUL, and it says the package doesn't exist | 10:28 |
| gogeta | Radio-l: windows firewall will block samba if you have it on | 10:28 |
| erUSUL | pkki: are you in 64 bit ubuntu ? what does "uname -m" says? | 10:28 |
| pkki | im in 32 bit | 10:29 |
| gogeta | pkki: in sysanptic slect repos make shure there all checked | 10:29 |
| gogeta | pkki: well no wonder why you cant use ia32 in 32 bit | 10:29 |
| gogeta | thats for 64bit | 10:29 |
| erUSUL | pkki: then you do not need a special ia32-libs package | 10:29 |
| jetienne | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=9204643 <- erUSUL found it | 10:29 |
| Radio-l | gogeta: even with inbound SMB enabled for public, domain, and user? | 10:29 |
| guntbert | sicksquirrel: no, no OS will ever be bug free -- don't expect that | 10:29 |
| jetienne | erUSUL: if possible it would be nice to modify the bot. this seem a much cleaner fix to install the theme | 10:29 |
| gogeta | Radio-l: yea i had to kick off the firewall in xp for linux to connect but not other windows machines at least with xp | 10:30 |
| pkki | erUSUL, where can I find that? | 10:30 |
| erUSUL | jetienne: ask in #ubuntu-ops if you feel is better to recommend a new theme | 10:30 |
| tjingboem | what is a nice GUI for cvs? | 10:30 |
| erUSUL | pkki: find what? | 10:30 |
| jetienne | erUSUL: will do thanks | 10:31 |
| pkki | oops misread | 10:31 |
| pkki | erUSUL, what do i need then? | 10:31 |
| erUSUL | pkki: again; if you are in a 32 bit ubuntu you do not need the ia32 libs package | 10:31 |
| pkki | im in i686 ubuntu | 10:31 |

| blablab | HI, I would like to install ubuntu lucid on an Acer extensa 5230 E. On it, theres already win7 and theres only 1 partition available .. I tried the live cd, everything went allright, but during the installation steps regarding partiioning/formating etc, I do not have the possibility (as I thought there was) to install ubuntu on the same existing partition next to win7... neither could I... | 10:33 |
| blablab | ...split resize it even though I have >80% of the partion free.... is there a way via the ubuntu live cd to split existing partitions, or should I do it with a third party software from win7? | 10:33 |

| gogeta | blablab: do you mean inside ntfs | 10:33 |
| blablab | hmm good point | 10:34 |
| blablab | gogeta, I had not thought about that | 10:34 |
| pkki | erUSUL, that's the page im using! | 10:34 |
| blablab | gogeta: the partions are probably ntfs yes | 10:34 |
| gogeta | blablab: thats a wubi install to install ubunti without reparting | 10:34 |
| Damien | gedit lets you split partitions | 10:35 |
| erUSUL | pkki: well in there there is a link to the program and a link to libstd5c++ | 10:35 |
| gogeta | blablab: just instert the cd wile running windows it will give you that option | 10:35 |
| erUSUL | pkki: and one to get a gui | 10:35 |
| amagee | ok. i have successfully removed the proprietary ati drivers, but i still can't get my second monitor working. the gnome display configurator sees the monitor and says it's "on", but there is no signal being sent to the second monitor. | 10:35 |
| Damien | better to reformat both and set up new partitions | 10:35 |
| blablab | gogeta: ho ok, Ill try, thanks! | 10:35 |
| Julia | Hey People! Im trying to figure out, where an old partition started. The partition before ends at cylinder 6879 according to fdisk. I tried 6880 for the next partitions, but the fs (reiser) cannot be mounted. Can it be, that the next partition starts at 6879? Can one partition start in the cylinder in wich the one before ends? | 10:36 |
| Damien | anyone know where i can play poker with 5$ or less deposit in the us | 10:36 |
| blablab | Damien: the laptop isnt mine, and the owner would probably not like this | 10:36 |
| Zeek | blablab, what type of partition did you need to resize? | 10:36 |
| blablab | Zeeb: ntfs I guess | 10:36 |

| Zeek | mm I think gparted will do that | 10:37 |
| Zorge | a lot of people like to put the dollar sign on the wrong side of the digits | 10:37 |
| gogeta | blablab: it will act mutch like a parted install but will use a mix of the windows boot loader and grub to start inside ntfs | 10:37 |
| red2kic | Would an Ubuntu-Crazed Volunteer please run something for me? "aptitude search cpufreq" -- Which packages are installed for you? | 10:37 |

| blablab | gogeta: is that clean? | 10:39 |
| Paddy_NI | red2kic, dont remind me.. drink and irc do not mix | 10:39 |
| Zeek | blablab, I believe so; The CD I downloaded (is there one different than the normal DL?) has it under System/Administration at the very least; I had to use the CD to shrink my ext4 partition once and when I brought it up just now, it allowed me the option of shrinking my ntfs partition | 10:39 |
| gogeta | blablab: but the installer will see it as a linux part | 10:39 |
| pkki | erUSUL, that's the original link i started with but the dependency problem still comes up. its unavoidable | 10:39 |
| twoshot_ | james-admin: just ask the question and people will help if they know the solution. | 10:40 |

| Paddy_NI | red2kic, lets see if it worked.. type in to the terminal "sensors" | 10:54 |
| erUSUL | !medibuntu | chandrageetha | 10:54 |
| dr0id | even I am thinking about that :P | 10:54 |
| ubottu | chandrageetha: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org | 10:54 |
| joebodo | burningcpu, check to see what your cpu usage is currently - | 10:54 |

| joebodo | burningcpu, what's consuming cup - you can use system monitor or top in terminal | 10:55 |
| burningcpu | joebodo but even under xp my CPU is usually full 100% as I continuously run BOINC | 10:55 |

| joebodo | any xpenguins experts around ? i can run xpenguins - but i get no penguins appearing on desktop | 10:57 |

| burningcpu | joebodo Xorg and gnome-systemmonitor seem to use between 4 and 25 percent each | 10:58 |
| benoitc | hi, anyone is running ubuntu on a macbook 5,1 ? i'm looking for a good touchpad config. I can't select or have left/right click with the one on the wiki :/ | 10:58 |
| david00 | Hi all | 10:58 |
| burningcpu | joebodo xsensors about 4 percent | 10:58 |
| red2kic | Paddy_NI: http://pastebin.com/SMPKTdM0 | 10:58 |
| Paddy_NI | red2kic, nice one | 10:58 |
| joebodo | burningcpu, that's mostly due to system monitor - unfortuantely, it really skews the results | 10:58 |
| david00 | I ran grub-install on a hardy machine and grub-install hung | 10:59 |
| david00 | The process won't die | 10:59 |
| david00 | Is it safe to reboot the machine? | 10:59 |
| wesguin | joebodo, maybe you have compiz interfering with it | 10:59 |
| burningcpu | joebodo and once in a while another program pops up with 2 percent | 10:59 |
| Paddy_NI | red2kic, okay so would you like to use a panel applet/icon to change your cpu speed? | 10:59 |
| voolty | bonjour | 10:59 |
| Galerien | david00 : bin us you "top" | 10:59 |
| voolty | j ai un probleme | 10:59 |

| Galerien | essaye ubuntu-fr | 10:59 |
| voolty | j ouai je vien de le remarquer pardon ^^' | 10:59 |
| joebodo | burningcpu, not sure why you see such a difference - possibly one OS is using the cpu more than the other running boinc | 10:59 |
| burningcpu | joebodo yeah but it usually only uses 6 percent or 4 percent and only once in a while jumps to 25 percent or less | 10:59 |
| Irreducibilis | Hey guys -- I just wanted to say thanks for making the best version of Ubuntu ever with 10.04 | 11:00 |
| burningcpu | joebodo atm I've sjut down boinc | 11:00 |
| david00 | Galerien: it's not listed in top, not consuming much cpu or mem | 11:00 |
| burningcpu | joebodo but temps hardly changed | 11:00 |
| burningcpu | pretty weird :s | 11:00 |
| joebodo | burningcpu, should slowly go down - maybe 5 or 10 mins before it gets to the idle temp | 11:00 |
| david00 | Galerien: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/0BxUq7AJ | 11:01 |
| david00 | Galerien: those are the lines from ps aux | 11:01 |
| Paddy_NI | red2kic, right click and empty area on your panel and click add to panel | 11:01 |
| Athenon | so ubuntu uninstalled mysql in the upgrade process and didn't install any replacement or updated package..... | 11:01 |
| Paddy_NI | red2kic, then type cpu and add the frequency selector | 11:01 |
| red2kic | Paddy_NI: Hmm. Done. I still can't adjust anything. | 11:01 |
| Paddy_NI | red2kic, which version of ubuntu? | 11:01 |
| irvken | hi, I recorded some audio using google voice recorder on my android phone, it's in a format called 3gp, and I can't find anyway to play it in ubuntu. It says I'm missing plugins, but then it says it can't find them (all applications). when I googled it it said the gstreamer utilities should play it but they are installed | 11:02 |
| red2kic | Paddy_NI: lucid. | 11:02 |
| jacekowski | irvken: mplayer | 11:02 |
| Paddy_NI | red2kic, sudo dpkg-reconfigure gnome-applets | 11:02 |
| jacekowski | irvken: and don't use android | 11:02 |
| joebodo | burningcpu, is it 50 in windows at idle temp ? | 11:02 |
| jacekowski | irvken: slowdroid* | 11:02 |
| Paddy_NI | red2kic, answer yes | 11:02 |
| irvken | mplayer doesn't play it | 11:02 |
| chandrageetha | where can i find the installed or downloaded packages on my system? | 11:03 |
| burningcpu | joebodo it's been about five minuts since I shut down boinc and cpu is still 100% both | 11:03 |
| wesguin | chandrageetha, /var/cache/apt/archives | 11:03 |
| joebodo | burningcpu, run top from command line and see what's at the top of the list | 11:03 |
| irvken | jacekowski, "cannot find codec for audio format" | 11:03 |
| red2kic | Paddy_NI: it does not ask anything but yeah, the command ran. | 11:04 |
| blablab | Another question, I installed without any problem Lucid on a desktop, its running smoothly, but I noticed that some files that I try to delete from Lucid, are bypassing the trash. It seems to apply to any file located on another partition than where Lucid is (file created either on ealier ubuntu/mint distributions, i.e. ext3). Files which are deleted from Lucid partition are normally going... | 11:04 |
| blablab | ...to trash. Any idea, how to fix it so that any file from any partition goes through the trash bin? | 11:04 |
| jacekowski | irvken: have you tried google? | 11:04 |
| chandrageetha | i got downloaded googe earthlinux.bin. now how to install it? | 11:04 |
| Paddy_NI | red2kic, okay | 11:04 |
| Paddy_NI | red2kic, did you try clicking the applet? | 11:04 |
| irvken | jacekowski, do you catually read what people say | 11:04 |
| burningcpu | joebodo aha! according to top boinc is still running >:-) | 11:04 |
| loly | how to install tar file | 11:04 |
| red2kic | Paddy_NI: I only can monitor. Unable to change anything. | 11:04 |
| jacekowski | irvken: no | 11:04 |
| wesguin | chandrageetha, well the best way would be directly from package manager | 11:04 |
| Six6siX | is there any problems if I went to update the kernel in ubuntu 10.04? if not are there anything I need to do before or after updating the kernel ? | 11:05 |
| burningcpu | joebodo that evil system monitor seems to hide information from me! | 11:05 |
| wesguin | chandrageetha, but you could make it executable and run it with sudo | 11:05 |
| jacekowski | irvken: and you have to google it again | 11:05 |
| joebodo | burningcpu, ha - try killall boinc from command line | 11:05 |
| jacekowski | irvken: and apt-get proper packages | 11:05 |
| irvken | well the ubuntu crowd sourced support has certainly gone downhill | 11:05 |
| Paddy_NI | red2kic, try "sudo chmod +s /usr/bin/cpufreq-selector" | 11:05 |
| chandrageetha | that doesn't work -it says package not found | 11:05 |
| burningcpu | joebodo ouch won't that kill all runing applications? | 11:06 |
| kale | does ubuntu have 3D support for the ATI X1300 GFX card? | 11:06 |
| Aciid | kale: try it | 11:06 |
| irvken | are you sure didn't stumble in here from debian jacekowski | 11:06 |
| joebodo | burningcpu, in ubuntu killall will just kill one process - "killall boinc" | 11:06 |
| red2kic | Paddy_NI: What does +s stands for? | 11:06 |
| wesguin | chandrageetha, probably for the best.. hang on a minute and i'll get you a url | 11:06 |
| jacekowski | irvken: just google it | 11:06 |
| joebodo | burningcpu, it does do some bad things on other types of unix | 11:06 |
| shtirlic | any good sql frontend that can work with ODBC ? | 11:06 |
| chandrageetha | yes. thanks | 11:06 |

| Six6siX | jacekowski: :D.. any particular reason ? | 11:08 |
| jacekowski | Six6siX: most likely you will end up with bloated slow kernel | 11:08 |
| joebodo | chandrageetha, what language | 11:08 |
| jacekowski | Six6siX: or not working kernel | 11:08 |
| === jdobrien is now known as webm0nk3y | ||
| Six6siX | ah ok | 11:08 |
| chandrageetha | any - php or any | 11:08 |

| burningcpu | haha! back to 42°C instantly! thanks joebodo! | 11:09 |
| Paddy_NI | red2kic, do "cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_available_frequencies" | 11:09 |
| Six6siX | all i was gonna do was.. make oldconfig and do a straight compile | 11:09 |
| jacekowski | chandrageetha: but eclipse/kdevelop might to the job | 11:09 |
| joebodo | chandrageetha, eclipse is pretty much on the same level | 11:09 |
| joebodo | burningcpu, good to hear | 11:09 |
| jacekowski | Six6siX: take a look at ubuntu patchset | 11:09 |
| jacekowski | Six6siX: loads of different patches | 11:09 |
| Six6siX | where is that? | 11:09 |
| burningcpu | joebodo, woohoo 36 degrees! now that's cool! | 11:09 |
| chandrageetha | how can i get eclipse, will it run on Ubuntu 8.04? | 11:09 |
| jacekowski | Six6siX: packages.ubuntu.org | 11:09 |
| red2kic | Paddy_NI: There are no cpufreq/scaling_available_frequencies | 11:09 |
| Radio-l | okay I still can't access the windows 7 system | 11:09 |

| burningcpu | btw does anyone know somekind of underclocking tool for ubuntu? | 11:11 |
| aqwsx | /join #asdertg | 11:11 |
| joebodo | burningcpu, you may be able to change how much cpu boinc uses by using the nice command for it | 11:11 |
| Six6siX | Ubuntu104: the keyring automatically unlocks ur wifi password so you can connect to the wifi network | 11:11 |
| Paddy_NI | red2kic, cat /proc/cpuinfo | 11:11 |
| joebodo | burningcpu, like "nice -20 boinc" | 11:11 |
| SmokeyD | remrot: I don't have it mounted through fuse but with smbfs. And it is not opened by another process. It is somethin that is specific for samba shared mounted through smbfs. When the file is local or on a nfs share, there is no problem | 11:11 |
| chandrageetha | how can i upgrade it to 10.04? | 11:12 |

| joebodo | AnxiousNut, alt-sysreq-k | 11:13 |
| Iuly | joebondo, what does that command does ? the one you gaved to burningcpu? please | 11:13 |
| remrot | SmokeyD: smbfs is deprecated, switch to cifs if possible | 11:13 |
| joebodo | !nice | 11:13 |
| ubottu | 'Nice' is a property of a process that determines how willing it is to give CPU time to other processes. A higher value makes it more likely to give away time. A negative value makes it less likely. Values are from -19 to 19, with 0 being the default. For more information, type 'man nice' at a terminal. | 11:13 |
| Iuly | thanks!1 | 11:13 |
| SmokeyD | remrot: there is no cifs available in ubuntu as far as I can see | 11:14 |
| chandrageetha | simply update manager will do upgradation of 8.04 to 10.04? | 11:14 |
| remrot | SmokeyD: yes it is | 11:14 |
| jetienne__ | erUSUL: they refused. | 11:14 |
| AnxiousNut | thank you joebodo!! | 11:14 |
| SmokeyD | remrot: there is only an smbfs package available, no cifs | 11:14 |
| remrot | try mount.cifs | 11:14 |

| red2kic | chandrageetha: LTS-to-LTS Upgrade. Yes. | 11:14 |
| Paddy_NI | red2kic, remove the cpu applet and run "sudo modprobe acpi-cpufreq" | 11:14 |
| SmokeyD | :( | 11:14 |
| SmokeyD | remrot: thanks, going to try now | 11:14 |
| remrot | SmokeyD: also "fuser" has nothing to do with FUSE! | 11:14 |
| wesguin | chandrageetha, I think that's too far a jump.. you would be better off to download the iso and burn a cd or usb | 11:14 |
| burningcpu | joebodo if I get it the nice command gives applications another priority or does it limit it's cpu usage? (coz it wasn't really slowing my pc down but merely kinda burning my cpu) | 11:15 |
| chandrageetha | red2kic, pls. make it clear | 11:15 |
| erUSUL | jetienne__: wel i agree with them | 11:15 |

| joebodo | burningcpu, maybe this: Open BOINC Manager->Advanced view->Advanced->Preferences->change the line While processor usage is less than 25 percent to 0 percent (zero)->click OK. | 11:19 |
| jetienne__ | erUSUL: this and the pulseaudio hickup of previous release. grumble. this is the second strick | 11:19 |
| jetienne__ | strike | 11:20 |
| jetienne__ | erUSUL: thanks for your help and your time tho | 11:20 |
| hisham | getting error of config-ml.in :file not found , i am trying to ./configure libstdc++ help anyone! | 11:20 |
| erUSUL | jetienne__: the thing about linux is that you have choice. you can use a new theme... you can tweak the existing one... you can move to kde etc... | 11:20 |
| Iuly | what is your problem. jetienne, you don't like the buttons on the left side ? sorry for asking, i camed late , i was following the discussion | 11:21 |
| jetienne__ | erUSUL: yep but for example, it was real hard to get working sound on previous release. not because the choise wasnt there, just because canonical released beta software when previous one was working | 11:21 |
| burningcpu | joebodo, oh thanks! coz google search results seemed to suggest installing an add on :p but if its built in it makes it easier | 11:21 |
| red2kic | Paddy_NI: Which one? Both packages are in conflict with each others. | 11:21 |
| jetienne__ | erUSUL: im still installing/deinstalling alsa and pulseaudio dependaing on the applicaiton i need to use | 11:21 |
| erUSUL | jetienne__: i can only said that pulseaudio has allways worked for me. | 11:21 |
| Paddy_NI | red2kic, oh then cpudyn | 11:21 |
| jetienne__ | erUSUL: and with your presence here, you likely know that it failed for many :) | 11:22 |
| erUSUL | jetienne__: no that i have a demanding use case. (music via headphones) | 11:22 |
| erUSUL | jetienne__: indeed | 11:22 |
| molfar | hi. anyone knows how to chenge the pointer? in theme customization windows i switch cursor to black - but i have no changes | 11:23 |
| red2kic | Paddy_NI: Do I have to reboot now? Btw, powernowd displays "* CPU frequency scaling not supported... [OK]" | 11:23 |
| SmokeyD | hmm, I remounted the sambashare through cifs, but I still have the same problem. And "watch -n1 fuser $file" doesn't show any application using it | 11:23 |
| Paddy_NI | red2kic, you installed cpudyn? | 11:23 |
| SmokeyD | but still vim complains that the file has been modified since reading it | 11:23 |
| Paddy_NI | red2kic, yes reboot then add the applet again and see if that made a difference | 11:23 |
| joebodo | molfar, i believe you need to log out / back in to get the cursor changes | 11:24 |
| red2kic | Paddy_NI: Yes. cpudyn in, powernowd out. | 11:24 |
| red2kic | Paddy_NI: Okay. Hold tight. | 11:24 |
| Paddy_NI | red2kic, cool | 11:24 |
| molfar | hi. when i change the pointer in ubuntu 10.4 - it has no effect | 11:24 |

| Paddy_NI | molfar, log out and back in | 11:25 |
| Paddy_NI | molfar, that happens sometimes with certain installs | 11:25 |
| remrot | lukefeil: use apt-file | 11:25 |
| molfar | Paddy_NI: i nave already restarted gdm | 11:26 |

| lukefeil | erUSUL: i tried, but i forgotten to activate the universe sources | 11:27 |

| seblabel | hello | 11:27 |
| red2kic | Paddy_NI: Sure. Go ahead and take a crack at it. :) | 11:27 |
| erUSUL | lukefeil: should be enabled by default .... | 11:27 |
| Paddy_NI | red2kic, see if you already have "sudo apt-get install libcpufreq0" | 11:27 |
| red2kic | Paddy_NI: Not installed. (which I was asking about in first place!) | 11:28 |
| Paddy_NI | hehe | 11:28 |
| Paddy_NI | install it | 11:28 |
| Aidar-Nagato | so strange... one of daily kernel snapshots knew my touchpad, but not newer versions | 11:28 |
| red2kic | Paddy_NI: Do I have to reboot for something like this? shared libraries. | 11:29 |
| pozic | Why does Ubuntu change my background when I upgrade? | 11:29 |
| Paddy_NI | red2kic, I dont think so | 11:29 |
| red2kic | pozic: New Ubuntu Background? I don't know. | 11:29 |
| pozic | I set it to "black" for a reason. | 11:29 |
| Paddy_NI | red2kic, do "cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_available_frequencies" | 11:29 |
| pozic | This "let's wipe the user settings" is completely silly. | 11:30 |
| molfar | firefox windows show me the selected cursor. but in other place the cursor is default | 11:30 |
| pozic | It's the same thing with Thunderbird. | 11:30 |
| red2kic | pozic: Change it back to black again, I guess. You're committing a big upgrade after all. | 11:30 |
| joebodo | pozic, bigger things to complain about ... | 11:30 |
| pozic | It used to work fine, but now I have to figure out how to undo this terrible new feature. | 11:30 |
| Joe_Black | hi | 11:31 |
| pozic | They tried to copy some of gmail's interface and they failed like only people without taste can. | 11:31 |
| joebodo | like - can't get xpengiuns to run - im going to switch to arch ! | 11:31 |
| red2kic | Paddy_NI: Same thing -- No cpufreq after cpu0 (but there are ../cpufreq) | 11:31 |
| lukefeil | can i give a path like "of=smb://laptop/public" as target for an dd operation? | 11:31 |
| remrot | lukefeil: try it, I don't think it'll work | 11:32 |
| lukefeil | or is the methode via SSH the only one over ethernet | 11:32 |
| Paddy_NI | red2kic, try "sudo modprobe speedstep-centrino" | 11:32 |
| remrot | lukefeil: why don't you mount the share before writing to it? | 11:32 |
| molfar | help me please te change pointer in gnome | 11:32 |
| pozic | Anyway, I want to see the first message when I click on a thread, not this "summary view" or whatever it is called in Thunderbird. | 11:33 |
| red2kic | Paddy_NI: Nothing. Same for acpi-cpufreq. | 11:33 |
| barberan | Is there a deafult firewall in 10.04 ? How would I configure it ? | 11:34 |
| MikeH_ | Where is the zone template file for bind under Ubuntu? | 11:34 |
| Paddy_NI | red2kic, gah... I guess another reboot after installing those libs.. then try the applet.. failing that.. throw the computer at whomever is nearest to you | 11:34 |
| MikeH_ | barberan: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo | 11:34 |
| joebodo | !ufw | 11:34 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu, like any other Linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW), or 'iptables' (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo). GUI frontends such as Firestarter/Gufw (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE) also exist. | 11:34 |
| red2kic | Paddy_NI: I think granola borked things but yeah. I'll try. | 11:36 |
| Athenon | hmm, i seem to be getting this error when i run irc services: error while loading shared libraries: libmysqlclient.so.15: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory | 11:38 |
| chuxxsss | Hi all | 11:39 |
| red2kic | Paddy_NI: Arrrrg. Nothing. This is irking me too much. No sweat. I'll just... nuke / | 11:40 |
| crimsun | Athenon: which package? which Ubuntu release? | 11:40 |
| remrot | Athenon: is mysql installed properly? | 11:40 |
| Paddy_NI | red2kic, gah... that's a shame | 11:40 |
| crimsun | Athenon: keep in mind that 10.04 LTS no longer contains that file. | 11:40 |
| Paddy_NI | red2kic, I wish I knew what granola removed/changed | 11:40 |
| red2kic | Paddy_NI: Are you admitting you failed me? :( | 11:40 |
| Paddy_NI | :( | 11:40 |
| Athenon | crimsun: ok, well....this program doesnt require nor use mysql, so i dont understand why it requires it | 11:41 |
| Paddy_NI | red2kic, umm.. some tea? | 11:41 |
| red2kic | Paddy_NI: Yeah. Better than a cake. | 11:41 |
| pozic | Does anyone know the solution to http://getsatisfaction.com/mozilla_messaging/topics/any_way_to_opt_out_of_a_v3_change_to_display_multiple_message_summaries ? | 11:41 |

| chuxxsss | anyone having problem with virtualBox 2.2 after upgrading to 10.04 | 11:41 |
| crimsun | Athenon: probably because it was a build-depends, but which irc services package is this? | 11:41 |
| Athenon | crimsun: so either way, what can i do to fix it? it's a compiled-from-source program fully up-to-date | 11:42 |
| Athenon | crimsun: its anope | 11:42 |
| crimsun | Athenon: namely, did you apt-get install <irc services>? | 11:42 |
| Athenon | crimsun: no, its compiled from source | 11:42 |
| remrot | Athenon: you could symlink to the proper mysql library | 11:42 |
| Paddy_NI | red2kic, the only other thing I can think of is cpufrequtils | 11:42 |
| BCMM | how do you start ubuntu without X? | 11:42 |
| Athenon | remrot: it appears to simply not exist anymore. | 11:42 |
| crimsun | Athenon: then you need to recompile anope source against libmysqlclient-dev | 11:42 |
| hisham | Error404NotFound, HELLO | 11:43 |
| Paddy_NI | red2kic, and perhaps maybe collectd-core | 11:43 |
| Athenon | crimsun: ok, erm...how do i do that? :S | 11:43 |
| Error404NotFound | hisham, hi :) | 11:43 |
| crimsun | Athenon: apt-get install libmysqlclient-dev, then recompile the anope source. | 11:43 |
| red2kic | Paddy_NI: I looked in /var/apt/log/history -- No mention of anything 'cpu' removed. | 11:43 |
| Athenon | crimsun: i believe ive done that.....but i'll try again | 11:43 |
| crimsun | Athenon: in Lucid? | 11:43 |
| Athenon | crimsun: yep | 11:43 |
| red2kic | Paddy_NI: Eh, /var/log/apt/history.log. | 11:43 |
| Paddy_NI | red2kic, you did not install or uninstall granular with apt did you? | 11:44 |
| crimsun | Athenon: libmysqlclient-dev would require the package that contains libmysqlclient.so.16 not libmysqlclient.so.15 | 11:44 |
| remrot | Athenon: maybe it is just a version conflict. If you ahve mysql installed, search for teh proper .so and create a symlink with the name that anope searches for | 11:44 |
| red2kic | Paddy_NI: Meh. Should check dpkg | 11:44 |
| Athenon | crimsun: im compiling again to be sure. | 11:44 |
| Athenon | remrot: the proper .so doesnt EXIST anymore. | 11:44 |
| jiggy | hello | 11:45 |
| red2kic | Paddy_NI: No. There was deb. | 11:45 |
| jiggy | can someone help me please | 11:45 |
| remrot | then reinstall the package | 11:45 |
| Athenon | remrot: it doesnt exist. the version of the file im looking for does not exist anymore in lucid..... | 11:46 |
| remrot | but another version exists! | 11:46 |
| jiggy | how can i edit this directory ./ ??? | 11:46 |
| chuxxsss | anyone having problem with virtualBox 2.2 after upgrading to 10.04 | 11:46 |
| Votan | o.0 | 11:46 |
| jiggy | Votan have you an idea ? | 11:46 |
| Votan | jiggy what directory you mean ? | 11:46 |
| remrot | ln -s libmysqlclient.so.15 libmysqlclient.so.16 | 11:46 |
| Paddy_NI | red2kic, ah.. then you could still try installing both "cpufrequtils" and "collectd-core" before you nuke | 11:46 |
| Athenon | crimsun: recompiled, same result | 11:46 |
| jiggy | i mean the directory | 11:46 |
| Paddy_NI | red2kic, might as well? | 11:46 |
| red2kic | Paddy_NI: Trying them. | 11:47 |
| crimsun | Athenon: recompiled and reinstalled? | 11:47 |
| mickster04 | jiggy: ./ means the directory you are in... | 11:47 |
| Athenon | crimsun: yep. | 11:47 |
| jiggy | example when i programming in c | 11:47 |
| jiggy | and i want to start then this programm | 11:47 |
| jiggy | i must always write ./hello.c how can i fix this | 11:47 |
| crimsun | Athenon: can you get me an strace? strace -f -o debug.txt someanopebinary | 11:47 |
| mickster04 | jiggy: what happens when you don't write ./? | 11:47 |
| jiggy | its not start the programm | 11:48 |
| mickster04 | jiggy: well then leave it there...its only two characters | 11:48 |
| Votan | well ./ means that the following file should be executed, i do not think u can get around that | 11:48 |
| Votan | at least not that I know of | 11:48 |
| jiggy | yes but im hearing that i can fix this problem | 11:49 |
| mickster04 | jiggy: ./ means "in the folder this part of the program is running..." | 11:49 |
| joebodo | jiggy, export PATH=.:$PATH | 11:49 |
| Radio-l | ". [file]" or a fully qualified path will execute | 11:49 |

| Athenon | crimsun: ok, how can i fix it? | 11:51 |
| Paddy_NI | :/ | 11:51 |
| Athenon | crimsun: its not even the stable version, its the dev version >.> | 11:51 |
| Radio-l | just a fair warning, I wouldn't do that on anything delicate | 11:51 |
| ranjan | red2kic: i am using pidgin | 11:51 |

| Votan | jiggy it is not a problem tbh, you are merely trying to build a regression imo | 11:54 |

| Aturey | Before I downgraded to 0.97?? | 12:31 |
| jrib | Aturey: yes... | 12:31 |
| Aturey | When I selected it the screen was nothing but black with a flashing white underscore in the top left corner | 12:31 |
| erUSUL | ubuntu: what happens when you right click on the partition in gparted and choose umount | 12:31 |
| jrib | Aturey: good, now you have a good question | 12:31 |
| ubuntu | erUSUL, I can't choose it | 12:32 |

| Aturey | So is there a way I can get it back? And I don't see why 10.04 would damage the windows bootloader. | 12:32 |
| Aturey | I have 2 hard disks | 12:33 |
| ubuntu | erUSUL, yes i can't choose i | 12:33 |
| ubuntu | erUSUL, yes i can't choose it | 12:33 |
| Aturey | One is Ubuntu and Windows, the other is for data | 12:33 |
| erUSUL | ubuntu: can you choose mount ? | 12:33 |
| remrot | Aturey: did you try an "update-grub"? | 12:34 |

| ubuntu | erUSUL, http://imagebin.org/96418 | 12:36 |

| erUSUL | ubuntu: the filesystem is in bad state you have to check it in a windows machine | 12:37 |
| MohammadRR_ | Hi , is there a program like IDM (in windows) for ubuntu that change downloaded file to small pieces ? | 12:37 |
| erUSUL | ubuntu: run chkdsk /f on windows then reboot TWICE ( that's what it says) | 12:37 |
| ubuntu | erUSUL, how to check it? | 12:37 |
| Aturey | I'm pretty sure it'd be pointing to the wrong partition, however I am not sure how to make it point to the correct place. | 12:38 |
| ubuntu | erUSUL, in windows cmd? | 12:38 |
| remrot | Aturey: it points to /dev/sda1. is this correct? | 12:38 |
| erUSUL | ubuntu: yes; maybe you can use the disk utility in windows too | 12:38 |
| Aturey | Yes | 12:38 |
| ChogyDan | Aturey: I don't really know, but can you pastebin your old menu.lst? also, are you sure you installed them correctly? I think you have to run grub-install at various points | 12:38 |
| Aturey | There is no menu.lst... | 12:39 |
| remrot | Aturey: try running grub-install, it autodetects the right partition | 12:39 |
| molfar | in last time doky began to crash many times. may be someone knows the issue? | 12:39 |
| ubuntu | erUSUL, in windows7? | 12:39 |
| s3r3n1t7 | molfar, began to crash ... how did it crash? Did it go funky? Did you do something special? Did you edit the config file? | 12:39 |
| erUSUL | ubuntu: yes; ask in ##windows for more help... never touched a win7 system | 12:39 |
| s3r3n1t7 | ubuntu, yup, reboot to windows, then run chkdsk /f. The f flag tells it to fix any errors found, the reboots are to make sure windows closes the partition. ( erUSUL ) | 12:40 |
| Aturey | Typing grub-install results in terminal telling me "install_device not specified" | 12:40 |
| aar | Is it possible to start a Live CD in a laptop with no hard drive inserted, then slot the hard drive in (after boot) and get the OS to recognize it? | 12:40 |
| jrib | !who | Aturey | 12:40 |
| molfar | s3r3n1t7: it just close up with "no words". trying to run it again - 1-2 sec it it closed again. 3-5 times this procedure - it works | 12:40 |

| remrot | update-grub | 12:41 |
| Aturey | Remrot: OK. | 12:41 |
| erUSUL | aar: if the disk is sata and supports hot/warm plugg it may work | 12:41 |
| Aturey | Remrot: I typed update.grub and terminal says No command update.grub found | 12:41 |
| erUSUL | Aturey: is a - not . | 12:42 |
| remrot | Aturey: I've corrected it to update-grub | 12:42 |
| erUSUL | Aturey: update-grub | 12:42 |
| s3r3n1t7 | molfar, are you running this via command line, or via some script? Can you pastebin? | 12:42 |
| aar | erUSUL, I've tried doing it but a "fdisk -l" wont show anything. Does it mean it's a no-go? | 12:42 |
| erUSUL | aar: only ahci controllers support hot/warm plug | 12:42 |
| Aturey | Remrot: it said it updated menu.lst | 12:42 |
| remrot | Aturey: check if it's different from the one you pasted | 12:43 |
| remrot | Aturey: especially the windows partition | 12:43 |
| Aturey | Remrot: I didn't paste menu.lst, I pasted grub.cfg | 12:43 |
| aar | erUSUL, do ahci controllers come with Ubuntu 10.04 or do they have to be compiled? | 12:44 |
| remrot | Aturey: I know, menu.lst doesn't exist in grub2 | 12:44 |
| Aturey | Remrot: Windows does not even show up on this one. | 12:44 |
| remrot | Aturey: can you paste it? | 12:44 |
| erUSUL | aar: ahci is something the sata chip has to support and you have to enable it in the bios of the machine (if not enabled by default) | 12:44 |
| erUSUL | aar: lsmod | grep -i ahci | 12:44 |

| Aturey | Remrot: I can select Chainload into GRUB 2 but I am pretty sure it failed. | 12:49 |

| qfluid | trungie, did you use smbclient with -N option? | 12:56 |
| erUSUL | ne7work: i can not help with windows problems ... ask in ##windows | 12:57 |
| trungie | RockHamOre: maybe i should use -H or --nopass? | 12:57 |

| aar | erUSUL, I'll play around with it, thanks | 12:59 |
| remrot | trungie: yes, but if it depends on the pgroam you use to connect! What are you using? | 13:00 |
| trungie | remrot: File Browser | 13:00 |
| JuJuBee | nucking: what happens when you type sudo a2enmod rewrite ? | 13:00 |
| qfluid | trungie, my exps is, if you can't at least connect with smbclient, cifs is going to fail but without telling you much error. | 13:00 |
| dziadu | is there another place where I could put it and system can find it? | 13:00 |
| frustrated | gnome-network-manger wont work for shit | 13:00 |
| nucking | Enabling module rewrite. | 13:01 |
| trungie | i am so embarrassed about all this. still can't get it working | 13:01 |
| nucking | Run '/etc/init.d/apache2 restart' to activate new configuration! | 13:01 |
| dziadu | i.e. if I prepare deb with my package for app which need additional env variable | 13:01 |

| s3r3n1t7 | frustrated, perhaps some more info would be useful... will it not start? Does it not detect something? Don't you like the interface? | 13:01 |
| qfluid | dziadu, why would you want to do that? you can surely put your env. var. in your ~/.profile | 13:02 |
| zero | fsdfe | 13:02 |
| frustrated | gnome-network-manager will not show up | 13:02 |
| zero | er | 13:02 |
| dziadu | qfluid: I want to make it system-wide | 13:02 |
| qfluid | dziadu, are you having problem that the system don't see your env var when you are using sudo? | 13:02 |
| qfluid | dziadu, put it int /etc/profile then | 13:02 |
| s3r3n1t7 | frustrated, and if you try to start it via command line, will it load or error out? | 13:02 |
| trungie | remrot: havent tried 'places' i am using netbook remix ubuntu 10 if it matters | 13:02 |

| airtonix | veepee, can you open nvidia-settings for me and tell me what nvidia driver version says ? | 13:06 |
| s3r3n1t7 | frustrated, you're referring to the default network manager of the gnome desktop, correct? Then it's the network manager you're referring to specifically? | 13:06 |
| nucking | theres a movie coming out called earthbound | 13:07 |

| veepee | I also tried uninstalling everything to nouveau | 13:07 |

| JuJuBee | Need some assistance with grub2 . After install, my boot menu had all of my partitions/os's listed including older kernels... How do I get rid of older kernels in the boot menu and how do I change the names to a more friendly name if I am not supposed to edit the /boot/grub/grub.cfg file? | 13:09 |
| remrot | trungie: don't think you need more than mount | 13:10 |
| trungie | i c | 13:10 |
| remrot | trungie: try mount -v | 13:10 |
| airtonix | veepee, to make the last part simple i would suggest you make a script file with an easy to remember name that contains those last steps | 13:10 |
| Radio-l | I want to configure my wireless connection through rc.local (i.e. not using networking-manager), and want to know if there's a way of dynamically handling multiple SSID's | 13:10 |
| Radio-l | one access point is at school, another at home, both unencrypted | 13:10 |
| veepee | airtonix, wouldn | 13:10 |
| jrib | anyone know of alternatives to halevt (automatic usb mounting) that don't require hal (as it seems that's going the way of the dodo)? Preferrably, not requiring gvfs/gnome/kde libraries | 13:10 |
| Radio-l | can this be accomplished? | 13:10 |
| veepee | wouldn't it be okay to just run the sh file? | 13:10 |
| ynk | hey guys. | 13:11 |
| airtonix | veepee, no. | 13:11 |
| veepee | why? | 13:11 |
| airtonix | veepee, feel free to try but it's cleaner if X isn't running. | 13:11 |
| ynk | how do i move the little notification pop-up to another place? for instance, all system tray notifications appear in the same place -- i want to move that spot to somewhere else on the screen. how do i do that? | 13:11 |
| arand_ | JuJuBee: http://www.dedoimedo.com/computers/grub-2.html for creating custom menu entries, easiest way to remove old kernels is to remove the packages (headers headers-generic image) | 13:11 |
| veepee | airtonix, okay Ill try these. thanks. lets hope it helps | 13:12 |
| trungie | remrot: trying now | 13:12 |
| frustrated | s3r3n1t7: it loads in the upper right hand corner, and shows it as connected after i click connect, but pages wont load | 13:13 |
| trungie | remrot: mount.cifs kernel mount options: unc=//painbringer\M,ver=1,rw,username=Trungie,ip=67.215.65.132 | 13:13 |
| trungie | remrot: why is my public ip displayed? that's wierd!! | 13:14 |
| trungie | remrot: i just want to go over the lan! | 13:14 |
| arand | Men men, J | 13:14 |
| JuJuBee | arand_: never removed old headers etc... how do I go about that? | 13:14 |
| trungie | remrot: omg it works when i specify the ip addr of my local adapter | 13:14 |
| s3r3n1t7 | frustrated, and by pages I assume you mean a general webpage? How are you connected to the internet, via a cable or via wireless? Can you try to ping google.com for example? | 13:14 |
| === gnome is now known as lawford | ||
| arand | JuJuBee: Mind, those linux-*-<version>-* packages, with a specific version name | 13:15 |
| trungie | remrot: whats the point of using the //servername when i have to specify the ip address too? | 13:15 |
| JuJuBee | arand_: so I don't want to add to what is there, just change the names... am I out of luck? | 13:15 |
| remrot | trungie: how does the call look exaclty? | 13:16 |
| trungie | remrot: sudo mount -t smbfs -v //painbringer/M pics/ -o username=Trungie,password=,ip=192.168.1.3 | 13:16 |
| marel | Hey, there's two partitions on my PC, if I delete one of them, does the GB of the deleted partition add to the existing partition ? | 13:16 |
| veepee | airtonix, the installation went fine but problem didnt get solved... :( | 13:16 |
| rawr | marel, no | 13:16 |
| s3r3n1t7 | marel, no, not by default. | 13:17 |
| remrot | trungie: and if you omit the "ip=" it doesn't work? | 13:17 |
| rawr | marel, you'll have to resize the other one, assuming the file system supports resizing | 13:17 |
| arand | JuJuBee: What you do is disable the automatic 10_linux script and add you own manually crafted one in /etc/grub.d/ it is tricky, and won't work automatically when a kernel is updated. But as far as I know, that's the way to do it. | 13:17 |
| viliny__ | Hello! | 13:17 |
| viliny__ | Anyone able to recommend any good keyloggers for ubuntu? | 13:17 |
| trungie | remrot: if i omit the ip, it does not work. -v tells me that ip=my public router ip which i am nat'ed behind | 13:17 |

| veepee | I just needed to change the resolution at display | 13:18 |
| airtonix | veepee, sorry i already sold them | 13:18 |
| remrot | try the ip adress instead of "painbringer" | 13:18 |
| trungie | remot: dont understand, it was working first time around using File Browser last week with the live cd... | 13:18 |
| jrib | A-R-R: just install the packages using your favorite APT frontend? | 13:18 |
| veepee | airtonix, thousand thanks mate ;) | 13:18 |

| EgYPaRaDoX | I need to expand my file system, is resizing ext4 safe? | 13:18 |

| veepee | gotta keep that in mind next time ;) | 13:19 |
| rawr | my friend did a clean install of 10.04 and I noticed that his fonts don't look like complete crap. If I upgrade to 10.04 from 9.x, will I also see those neat improvements, or will my old configs mess everything up, kill my dog and burn my house down? | 13:19 |
| s3r3n1t7 | frustrated, then your web should be working just fine. Which page are you trying to show? Would it be possible this site is down? | 13:19 |
| airtonix | veepee, hopefully you can use the ppa instead when it gets lucid support soon | 13:19 |
| trungie | remrot: omg johnny 5 is alive.. it works | 13:19 |
| Zeek | Eghie, I used it to shrink a filesystem so I expect growing is as safe | 13:19 |
| remrot | trungie: if it works when using the ip adress instead of "painbringer" maybe there's sth. wrong with DNS | 13:19 |
| A-R-R | jrib, the other computer is not connected to the internet. How can I repackage the installed applications? | 13:19 |
| JuJuBee | arand I'd be happy just removing the old kernels... | 13:19 |
| frustrated | s3r3n1t7: google.com, yahoo.com, msn.com | 13:19 |
| Zeek | EgYPaRaDoX, , I used it to shrink a filesystem so I expect growing is as safe | 13:19 |
| jrib | rawr: either. Depends on what you have in your HOME. On a new user at least, you should have the same settings your friend has | 13:19 |
| remrot | trungie: great! what does ping painbringer say? | 13:19 |
| trungie | remrot: OMG i realised. i changed my DNS in my router this last week from itself to opendns / google dns | 13:19 |

| remrot | trungie: no prob ;) | 13:20 |

| MsTegan | Ubuntu 10.4 LTS thoughts, feelings? bugs? annoyances? should I upgrade | 13:20 |
| dziadu | qfluid: yes | 13:20 |
| s3r3n1t7 | MsTegan, that's an opinion, for which this is the wrong channel. | 13:20 |
| qfluid | dziadu, you should check your /etc/profile and see how it reads file in /etc/profile.d/* | 13:20 |
| trungie | Thank all, thank you remrot again | 13:21 |
| arand | JuJuBee: Computer Janitor might be able to do it, make sure to only remove linux-* items, and check what your current version is, and make dead sure that one is still left | 13:21 |
| MsTegan | Which is the right channel? | 13:21 |
| jrib | MsTegan: try a live cd and see if you prefer it or not | 13:21 |
| s3r3n1t7 | frustrated, then i'm afraid i'm at a loss. Considering that ping works but your browser doesn't, I don't see where the problem lies. | 13:21 |
| dziadu | qfluid: I've checked and it seems to be reading | 13:21 |
| dziadu | qfluid: ok, i have it, it is looking for *.sh files, my was w/o extension | 13:22 |
| Zeek | MsTegan, 10.4 is slick; I was using 9 and it is visually nice. It uses a different manager layout for max/min/close but still, sweet fast boot speed | 13:22 |
| arand | MsTegan: This one is more for specific support, "ubuntu-offtopic might give you more generla answers and discussions, or ther forums, which seems to have a lot of discussions ongoing. | 13:22 |

| root_ | yo theadmin do you have a link to download a debian bible | 13:29 |
| angel | mguy, " 07:28:13 up 6:13, 2 users, load average: 0.40, 0.34, 0.20" Would that mean it has been on since 6:13? | 13:29 |
| theadmin | root_: A what? | 13:29 |
| root_ | meant bible for debian. ubuntu has got one i think | 13:30 |
| theadmin | mguy: For 6 hours and 13 minutes | 13:30 |
| iloioh | hi im using Xchat and i want to login as new but even if i change the user name it get me the same friend list | 13:30 |
| trungie | BTW can anyone explain load averages to me? I've never understood the man page... :( | 13:30 |
| root_ | i'm i wrong? | 13:30 |
| theadmin | angel: Ehm. ^ | 13:30 |
| s3r3n1t7 | trungie, it's how hard your pc is working on average over the past X minutes. | 13:31 |
| mahdi1602 | any one can help me with my vga problem in ubuntu 10 notebook | 13:31 |
| mahdi1602 | ? | 13:31 |
| s3r3n1t7 | trungie, to be more precise, the CPU load for your box. | 13:31 |
| angel | root_, Xiphos is a good Linux bible, also you can install E-Sword in Linux if you look around for the tutorial. | 13:31 |

| === Enissay_ is now known as Enissay | ||
| theadmin | angel: That means that your system has been up for 6 hours, 13 minutes. | 13:31 |
| angel | theadmin, oh ok. Thanks a lot :) | 13:32 |
| trungie | s3r3n1t7: what does a load average of 1 mean? | 13:32 |
| s3r3n1t7 | trungie, 100% cpu usage for the past X minutes | 13:32 |
| root_ | thank you angie | 13:33 |
| iloioh | hi im using Xchat and i want to login as new but even if i change the user name it get me the same friend list | 13:33 |
| s3r3n1t7 | trungie, the 3 you see in top are usually something around 2, 5 and 10 minutes or so | 13:33 |
| angel | root_, no problem. | 13:33 |
| mguy | Isn't it 1,5,15? | 13:33 |
| trungie | s3r3n1t7: ive seen load averages of more than 1 sometimes. Sometimes like 4! how can my computer work at 400% | 13:33 |
| s3r3n1t7 | mguy, quite well possible. | 13:33 |
| mguy | trungie: It can't , it means you were overloaded | 13:33 |
| s3r3n1t7 | trungie, It's calculated per core, so if you have more cores it can go well over 100%. | 13:34 |
| remrot | trungie: it can, if you have more than one cpu | 13:34 |
| mguy | You would ideally like them under 1 | 13:34 |
| mguy | (on a single CPU system) | 13:34 |
| trungie | oh i see now | 13:34 |
| trungie | awesome! | 13:34 |

| trungie | thanks all | 13:34 |
| kornerr | what's the procedure of accepting packages for Ubuntu? I'm interested in an updated CEGUI | 13:35 |
| Pici | !newpackage | kornerr take a look | 13:35 |
| ubottu | kornerr take a look: The packaging guide is at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/PackagingGuide - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment/NewPackages for information on getting a package integrated into Ubuntu - Other developer resources are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment - See also !backports | 13:35 |
| Pici | iloioh: Er, there typically isn't a concept of a friends list on IRC clients. Do you mean the userlist? | 13:35 |
| kornerr | thanks | 13:35 |

| trungie | i have a question :) | 13:36 |
| s3r3n1t7 | trungie, instead of saying you have a question, how about just ask it? We can't read your mind | 13:37 |
| trungie | typing :) | 13:37 |
| trungie | maybe, no1 uses it here, so yeah | 13:37 |
| * remrot uses screen too, great invention ;) | 13:37 | |
| Roobarb-Work | Anyone here using Ubuntu as an OSX Time Machine backup target? | 13:38 |
| Pici | iloioh: I don't think that xchat's notify list can be different if you are logged into gnome as the same person. You may want to ask in #xchat for more specific help though. | 13:38 |
| trungie | GNU screen - while using split and then ^d to disconnect, then reconnect, i loose the way i've split the screens | 13:38 |

| trungie | angel: still no solution for gnu split session preservation | 13:45 |
| s3r3n1t7 | trungie, have you tried nesting screen? | 13:46 |
| s3r3n1t7 | trungie, so run screen inside screen, with the splits inside the second screen? | 13:46 |

| marel | What's the best IRC client for Ubuntu ? I'm currently using Gnome X-Chat and it .. sucks. | 13:46 |
| theadmin | marel: Use the normal xchat | 13:47 |
| Fawzib | anyone, any ideas? | 13:47 |
| iceroot | !best | marel | 13:47 |
| ubottu | marel: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 13:47 |
| theadmin | marel: The gnome one is meh | 13:47 |
| Tm_T | jrib: why not using hal? it won't go away entirely anyday soon I think | 13:47 |
| trungie | angel: thank you very much. actually from your links, i will be looking at all superuser.com gnu-screen posts now :P | 13:47 |
| iloioh | im using Xchat and i want to login as new but even if i change the user name it get me the same friend list | 13:47 |
| s3r3n1t7 | trungie, mind your language though, it's still a public channel. However, the nested screens seem to be able to do what you want, don't they? Since you'll either need to run the commands to create the split anyway, a second screen would be sufficient. | 13:48 |
| trungie | s3r3n1t7: sorry, too excited. havent been on irc in 3+ years heh | 13:48 |
| LinuxPhreak | Just got done with BEeN GRUBed for Ubuntu. Testing it now | 13:48 |

| trungie | heh ok | 13:50 |
| trungie | wheres that channel? | 13:50 |
| angel | does anyone else find the editing of the new grub to be rather difficult. About a month ago I switch to grub2 and tried to simply change the boot order and for the life of me I couldn't find a guide that would tell me how to do it that actually worked. | 13:50 |

| s3r3n1t7 | !root | Fawzib | 13:52 |
| ubottu | Fawzib: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 13:52 |
| mfpockets | Hi Guys, im using an acer aspire one, and the expansion slot is supposed to automatically add free space to the SSD card, but when I put it in, it acts as its own unique drive. Anyone have any ideas to fix this? | 13:54 |
| trungie | does Ubuntu 10 have any support for biometrics finger print scanners? | 13:54 |
| angel | Fawzib, I think simply put what s3 is trying to say is it is VERY bad practice to log into root and do anything. Linux has great security if you do it right. Don't log into root and don't make changes from root. Use your profile and use sudo and your password. | 13:54 |
| Fawzib | ok, the problem I thin its before it starts nmbd because 'service nmbd start' does not create the log file | 13:54 |
| zamba | can i do the upgrade from jaunty, by karmic and to luci without restarting between jaunty and karmic? | 13:55 |

| mungojerry | !commands > mungojerry | 13:56 |
| ubottu | mungojerry, please see my private message | 13:56 |
| angel | Fawzib, if it is rejecting the creation of the log file it may be because of lack of administrative access to whatever folder it is attempting to create it in. Log out of root, back into your account and issue the sudo before the command and see if it creates the log. | 13:56 |
| h00k | mfpockets: What do you mean when you say "fix" it? | 13:56 |

| h00k | mfpockets: They're going to mount as separate drives because...well, they are separate drives. You can mount it as something differently, for instance, your /home/ folder | 13:58 |
| Fawzib | angel: thats not it 'service smbd start' works ok, and creates the log ok (when i said root, it means i did 'sudo bash') | 13:58 |

| mfpockets | @h00k it says it merges with filesystem automattically | 13:59 |
| angel | mfpockets, also an SSD has many more read and rights before hard drive failure than an SD card. If you were to merge them as one somehow and have it store information at random on the SD card you could wear it out very fast and end up losing a lot of data. | 13:59 |

| angel | do a google search for unetbootin, download the linux version and open the properties on the unetbootin file and go to permissions and select to make it executable. Then double click the file, select the ISO option and point it to the downloaded Ubuntu ISO, make sure your usb is plugged in and start it. Won't take long. make sure it';s a 2gb stick or more. | 14:15 |
| Maximo | Angel: thanks alot | 14:16 |
| gnubie | Maximo; you might look through this site http://easylinux.info/wiki/Ubuntu:Lucid | 14:17 |
| angel | then make sure your bios can boot from USB. It may not show up as USB in your bios, make sure it's plugged in before you start up your comp. It may show up as another hard drive under the hard drive boot order option. | 14:17 |

| blablab | sorry was disconnected... no idea if anyone replied to me, i repeat then my question: | 14:50 |
| blablab | Hi! I have installed recently Lucid on a desktop, its running smoothly, but I noticed that SOME files that I try to delete from Lucid are bypassing the trash. Trash bypassing (it actually tries to send the file to trash but it prints an error msg like: cant send to trash, permanently delete only) seems to apply to any file located on another partition than where Lucid is (in my system case... | 14:50 |
| blablab | ...it also means that the problematic files that were made from older ubuntu/mint distributions). Files which have been created under Lucid are normally going to trash, no pbs here. Any idea, how to fix it so that any file to be deleted would go through the trash bin? | 14:50 |
| FloodBot3 | blablab: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 14:50 |

| airtonix | PerfectLion, however, if you want to prototype your own dialouge boxes you might like to look at glade3 | 14:51 |
| ortsvorsteher | namelessf, are you able to connect to other boxes with the dsa key which you use? | 14:51 |

| drellok | jrib, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Autofs | 14:51 |
| s3r3n1t7 | blablab, the trash bin is a specific folder in your home folder. If you try to delete a file on another partition it would mean the file is going to be copied over to your home folder, which is undesirable most of the times, and thus you will only get the option to permanently delete. If you wish to move it to your trash can, you will have to move the file there by hand. | 14:51 |

| lun4tic | s3r3n1t7: didn't find any other channels and hoped because ubuntu has so many languages that there would be someone who at least understands it *g* | 15:13 |
| grndslm | lun4tic: did you see the link above, about the non-english channels?? | 15:13 |

| dj_segfault | Heh. Killing GDM leaves me with a screen flashing white with grey stripes. Maybe it's a display driver issue after all. I'm using the proprietary nvidia one. How can I switch back then reinstall the proprietary one. If I edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and change "Nvidia" to "nv" is that it? | 15:15 |

| dj_segfault | venik212: If you right click on the icon there should be a remove option | 15:17 |
| falafell | weird thing is, the normal 'desktop' edition works fine, i'm assuming that needs the desktop components aswell... | 15:17 |

| joaopinto | pmatulis, the package is broken, better install it using the eclipse repository | 15:20 |
| remrot | dj_segfault: I thought you had a running GNOME and want a terminal??? | 15:21 |
| pmatulis | joaopinto: there is an eclipse repository? | 15:21 |
| marel | How do I force close some program ? | 15:21 |
| s3r3n1t7 | marel, CLI method: pkill <programname> | 15:21 |
| Soyo | He is in SSH, can't see anything locally I think is what he said | 15:21 |
| joaopinto | pmatulis, I mean a regular eclipse based repository, that's the regular way to install pydev, not an APT repository :) | 15:21 |
| marel | s3r3n1t7, it's a package installer, how do I kill it | 15:21 |
| marel | ? | 15:22 |
| dj_segfault | remrot: No, X wouldn't get past the Mythbuntu herringbone pattern and Ctl Alt F1 showed a blank screen | 15:22 |
| remrot | marel: pkill -9 if it is still alive ;) | 15:22 |
| Soyo | top | 15:22 |
| s3r3n1t7 | marel, can you tell me what you were doing and/or installing when it crashed, and how do you specify crash? | 15:22 |
| s3r3n1t7 | remrot, that's a last resort sort of killing a program. Much better to use pkill. | 15:22 |

| pmatulis | joaopinto: but broken in Karmic *and* Lucid? that's weird | 15:22 |

| sdk | marel: open a terminal. ps aux | grep <program name> then kill <program's PID> | 15:22 |
| joaopinto | pmatulis, is not weird, eclipse had a major rework on lucid | 15:23 |
| marel | I was installing the skype and then I got an error, it opened the terminal and the terminal said something about Wine. I closed the terminal, now I can't close the package installer. | 15:23 |
| remrot | s3r3n1t7: I know, but if it ignores the SIGTERM, there's only one was | 15:23 |
| remrot | way | 15:23 |
| s3r3n1t7 | remrot, the package manager doesn't ignore it. | 15:23 |
| remrot | s3r3n1t7: as long as it behaves correctly ;) | 15:23 |
| joaopinto | s3r3n1t7, unless it's severely broken | 15:24 |
| s3r3n1t7 | joaopinto, remrot, there's always an if and you can always break a package beyond the point it can behave properly. | 15:24 |
| s3r3n1t7 | It's not realistic to take those situations into account and most certainly not to assume a package is in such a state. | 15:24 |
| remrot | s3r3n1t7: but it doesn't hurt to KNOW what to do in such a situation! | 15:25 |
| s3r3n1t7 | remrot, you were telling him to use pkill -9 right of the bat | 15:25 |

| Soyo | !ask | 15:26 |
| ubottu | Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 15:26 |
| ForgeAus | theDom nvidia? | 15:26 |
| s3r3n1t7 | remrot, <remrot> marel: pkill -9 if it is still alive ;) How would you know what's wrong with it if it was still alive? | 15:26 |
| sdk | marel: open a terminal and enter sudo -i (you will be prompted ofr your password) then do $ps aux | grep skype. It will probably return a few lines. The second column is the PID or process ID. remember the LOWEST number and do $kill -9 <that number> | 15:26 |
| remrot | JenniferB: best way is to use network manager | 15:26 |
| ForgeAus | I'm having same problem here with Geforce 9500m GS | 15:26 |
| JenniferB | --> Edit connection --> Edit auth0 --> Ipv4 Settings | 15:26 |
| JenniferB | yes.. and I have chosen manual | 15:26 |
| ForgeAus | I know it works in PCLinuxOS great with compositing and all | 15:26 |
| JenniferB | but what is gateway ? | 15:26 |
| dj_segfault | remrot: E: Couldn't find package nvidia-current Should I uninstall all of them or just the latest? thanks | 15:26 |
| ForgeAus | so it should be doable in ubuntu | 15:26 |
| JenniferB | right click and "view connection information " | 15:27 |
| remrot | s3r3n1t7: I wrote "if it is still alive", meaning if "pkill" did not help! | 15:27 |
| JenniferB | shows other things... like "Default Route" | 15:27 |
| theDom | nvidia | 15:27 |
| JenniferB | what is that? | 15:27 |
| remrot | s3r3n1t7: can we stop this discussion now? it's pretty pointless... | 15:27 |
| remrot | dj_segfault: dpkg -l | grep nvidia | 15:27 |
| s3r3n1t7 | remrot, your advice was wrong in my opinion. You don't tell someone to use that unless you're sure there's no other way. Ok. | 15:27 |
| JenniferB | anyone? | 15:28 |
| roberto_ | how can I set the output audio to something different than the system audio output ? | 15:28 |
| remrot | JenniferB: right-click on the network applet and choose "configure" | 15:28 |
| JenniferB | right click.. "view connection information" shows other things than what I can set in manual settings | 15:28 |
| JenniferB | remrot: ok | 15:28 |
| roberto_ | for empathy | 15:28 |
| JenniferB | I am there | 15:28 |
| Kane_Hart | what would run better windows with ubuntu vmware or the other way around? | 15:29 |
| remrot | JenniferB: select teh interface you want (probably eth0) and enter a static IP address and a gatewy | 15:29 |
| Soyo | Or just a dual boot... | 15:29 |
| JenniferB | what is my gateway? | 15:29 |
| sdk | Kane_Hart: UBU w/ virtualbox running Win. I have 4 servers running that way. | 15:29 |
| Kane_Hart | thanks :) | 15:30 |
| sdk | Kane_Hart: Np. Enjoy. | 15:30 |
| JenniferB | remrot: in "connection information" for my current internet I have things like, broadcast Address and "default route"/// | 15:30 |
| JenniferB | but no gateway | 15:30 |
| remrot | JenniferB: you need to get to the settings | 15:31 |
| roberto_ | when I do netstat -rn I see two 0.0.0.0 gateways :P that seems wrong to me | 15:31 |
| dj_segfault | remrot: Do I want to remove nvidia-modaliases | 15:31 |
| dj_segfault | Oops skip that | 15:31 |
| sdk | JenniferB: you running Linksys router? | 15:31 |

| Soyo | DynDns? FTW... | 15:32 |
| JenniferB | so I can connect to the same ip all the time | 15:32 |
| JenniferB | sdk: not sure | 15:32 |
| s3r3n1t7 | roberto_, from my understanding they are broadcast adresses and are safe to be left there. | 15:32 |
| remrot | JenniferB: from where do you want to connect? From within your LAN? | 15:32 |
| JenniferB | its stupid that the information is not consisten in ubuntu | 15:32 |
| remrot | JenniferB: it's easy, you just have to get to the settings. You get there from the applet in the upper right corner. I would make you a sceenshot if I could.. | 15:33 |
| Oer | default route = gateway, JenniferB | 15:33 |
| JenniferB | thansk | 15:33 |
| roberto_ | s3r3n1t7: ooh, ty | 15:33 |
| JenniferB | Oer: thats all I wanted to know | 15:34 |
| ActionParsnip | yo yo yo | 15:34 |
| s3r3n1t7 | JenniferB, if you need a static IP it's usually best to set it on the router itself. | 15:34 |
| s3r3n1t7 | JenniferB, most routers have the option to assign the same IP to a pc. | 15:34 |
| JenniferB | it should be consistent in my opinion | 15:34 |
| roberto_ | how can I set the output audio for empathy (or anything I guess) to something different than the system audio output ? | 15:34 |
| sdk | JenniferB: there is only one universally consistent interface.. CLI. Sorry to say, but it's the truth. | 15:34 |

| BlackDog10 | \list | 15:35 |
| sdk | Palestine: clarify? what is a 'server PC'? | 15:35 |
| JenniferB | its about the "connection information" and the settings to the a manual/static ip... they should present/ask for information in the same way | 15:35 |
| Palestine | sdk pc with 2 cpus | 15:35 |
| Palestine | server tower | 15:35 |

| braindump | I've been issuing safe-upgrade command every few days since 10.04 was released, and every time it finds new stuff to do | 15:37 |
| braindump | I am not sure why, I thought safe-up replaced dist-up, and that you really only have to do that once for each major version | 15:38 |
| braindump | if someone knows more about this, would appreciate any clarification | 15:38 |
| ActionParsnip | sinbox: do you have a DHCP server around (a home grade router is also a DHCP server) | 15:38 |
| braindump | ActionParsnip: sounds like he has one puter on the interweb and 1 he is tying to nw install onto | 15:38 |
| jrib | braindump: did you take a look at the man page? It explains what each command does. "full-upgrade" replaced "dist-upgrade" and it's usual to receive updates even after release for things like security fixes | 15:39 |
| braindump | jrib: ah, I was confusing safe-up and full-up | 15:39 |
| hutty | hi all | 15:39 |
| braindump | jrib: I would assume that the updates will slow down as we get farther out from 10.04's release date | 15:39 |

| theadmin | Can I run apt-get -d without being root? | 15:40 |
| braindump | kong: maybe they filled it lol | 15:40 |
| jrib | braindump: yeah, usually | 15:40 |
| theadmin | braindump: Well yeah that's how it works | 15:40 |
| kong | briandump, naw its not full | 15:40 |
| hutty | why is there no functions file in "init.d" directory | 15:40 |
| sinbox | ActionParsnip, yes I have a netgear modem/router set as DHCP server for the lan and the box with the botp server does receive an IP from it | 15:40 |
| theadmin | hutty: Because init.d is old | 15:40 |
| jrib | !upstart | hutty | 15:40 |

| dj_segfault | hutty: What app | 15:42 |
| theadmin | llutz: aw shrugs. I managed to figure that debian packages are archives and can be unpacked to any folder and normally it "works" from there on. I just wanted it to be possible to download em without root as well :D | 15:42 |
| remrot | hutty: what app? | 15:42 |
| hutty | its called zipproxy | 15:43 |
| ActionParsnip | sinbox: thats good, if you check the network cable, are the activity lights flashing around the physical connection ? | 15:43 |
| jrib | theadmin: that doesn't run the .postinst and friends scripts though | 15:43 |
| Futsuriai | So, my CPU frequency is somehow defaulting to the lowest setting after running for a while (and temperature is at an acceptable level) and I can after that point never increase it | 15:43 |
| hutty | its not an ubuntu package | 15:43 |
| theadmin | llutz: Okay then, is there a way to make apt-get get em in some directory, or is there an other way doing this? | 15:43 |

| jrib | PHP_Arun: upgrade from what? | 15:54 |
| remrot | hutty: if forgot the path, better to use "file /usr/bin/zipproxy" | 15:54 |
| _bt | DuCkNeT: my vostro 1520 doesn't have a line in? | 15:54 |
| theadmin | PHP_Arun: Uh, no. Better go with a clean install. Or you can first update to 9.10, then to 10.04, but... bad idea in general | 15:54 |
| Nubulis_Maximus | anyone running superkaramba? | 15:54 |
| theadmin | jrib: He wants to do a Jaunty => Lucid update | 15:54 |
| remrot | dj_segfault: OK | 15:55 |
| jrib | PHP_Arun: sorry, missed your statement. You can upgrade using an iso as theadmin said by going to 9.10 first, then 10.04. You have to use the alternate cd if you want to use an iso and not use the update-manager online | 15:55 |
| jrib | !alternate > PHP_Arun | 15:55 |

| ActionParsnip | sinbox: the bootp server will most likely need a static IP or some other config, the client should just pick up the bootp so I'd look at the server config | 15:55 |
| DuCkNeT | _bt: doesn it work for you ???? ive got headphone with a mic it does work on other system but not this one... and i need it hehe :P | 15:56 |
| dj_segfault | remrot: I got X started, but dialog boxes have no window bar on top with close/max/min buttons etc. What can cause that? | 15:56 |

The repo itself can be added by running this in a !terminal: « sudo add-apt-repository "deb http://archive.canonical.com/ RELEASE partner" » where RELEASE is lucid/karmic/etc | 16:20 |
| regebro | remrot: Well, I haven't upgraded it since 2008, so. ;) In fact, once I backed everything up, I'll just scratch it and deploy 10.04 LTS directly. | 16:20 |
| JuJuBee | If I want to use netbeans, do I need the sun java or will open do fine? | 16:20 |
| Julia | is "cp -r" the right way to copy everything without following symlinks but copying the symlinks themselves? | 16:20 |
| ActionParsnip | wassup with ext4, works fine here and everyones favourite google use the fs | 16:21 |

| ActionParsnip | resno: afaik yes | 16:22 |
| IdleOne | resno: yes | 16:22 |
| ActionParsnip | resno: theres grsync too if you want a GUI | 16:22 |
| resno | IdleOne: good, i will be moving about 80 gb | 16:23 |

| Dr_Willis | smik: im not sure there is one | 16:27 |
| helo | dacresni: i suspect you accidentally assigned the 'q' key to help | 16:27 |
| Dr_Willis | dacresni: I am on lucid. F1 is help in gnome terminal. not Q, | 16:28 |
| dacresni | well its capital but how do I change it? | 16:28 |

| artisan | ActionParsnip: nope. ip r shows neither a ppp device (which I would expect) nor any device with an IP | 16:36 |
| onetinsoldier | Charbel: don't know. you might be able to right-click on an icon and then select 'Move' and be able to move it around a little. other than that, i don't know | 16:36 |
| ActionParsnip | Impy^: when it boots with sound etc run: dmesg > ~/works.txt when you get a bad boot run: dmesg > ~/bad.txt and compare the text | 16:36 |

| Julia | arthurmaciel: without a cd? | 16:41 |
| madjoe | is there any application I could use to see a website in IE8 browser on my Ubuntu? I don't want to use Windows emulator (VM), and if there's any possible way, I would avoid wine for security (?) reasons. | 16:41 |
| arthurmaciel | Julia: yes | 16:41 |
| Julia | arthurmaciel: i never tried that. | 16:41 |
| smik | ActionParsnip: I am on it. There are lot of information outputed. When I press CTRL I can see it. But I can't exactly find the ascii equivalent | 16:41 |
| blackxored | arthurjohnson, setup a dhcp and bootp server and boot through network toward net-install imgs | 16:41 |

| yeryry | you want to avoid wine for security reasons.. yet you want to run IE? | 16:41 |
| Dr_Willis | madjoe: given those limits.. proberlyu not. theres some tools to use some older ie's in wine. | 16:41 |
| alberto | can i run MSN videoconference in Ubuntu? how? | 16:42 |
| lisa_ | hi can someone tell me how to determin which type of encrption one of my partitions is using? | 16:42 |
| * Dr_Willis agrees with yeryry | 16:42 | |
| notbenh | I'm having udev issues with my mouse, followed docs, built rule, but it never matches and the default udev picks are wrong. | 16:42 |
| ActionParsnip | achilles: use fsck, make sure the partitions are unmounted | 16:42 |
| blackxored | lisa_, mount? | 16:42 |
| onetinsoldier | achilles: yes, repeat your question. something like every five to ten minutes or so... | 16:42 |
| sik4mpret | hello all. | 16:42 |
| notbenh | is there any way that I can attempt to mimic the addition of a udev device so that I can follow the rules that are matched? | 16:42 |
| arthurmaciel | blackxored: I didn't put it right: I'm on an ubuntu box with internet and want to reinstall the whole system on it (no network, no CD, no pendrive - it is real) | 16:42 |
| tn90 | hey after some time my xserver crashes on my lucid with intel hd graphics. i guess that this error message from /var/log/messages is related to the problem: http://paste.ubuntuusers.de/398266/ | 16:42 |
| Julia | lisa_: if it uses luks you can probably readit with some tool. | 16:42 |
| ActionParsnip | yeryry: http://www.tatanka.com.br/ies4linux/page/Installation its not great but kinda works | 16:42 |
| lisa_ | i want to resize it but i cant because its ntfs/encrypted | 16:42 |
| blackxored | arthurjohnson, get access to other machine and setup network boot | 16:43 |
| artisan | where is logged what the networkmanager does? | 16:43 |
| blackxored | none? | 16:43 |
| blackxored | hi guys, two questions, since the ubuntu development seems to be limitating me ;) a) how do I enable terminal audible bell back b) how can I change splash screen | 16:43 |
| lisa_ | i plan to use cyptsetup to but i need to figure pt is being used what type of cry | 16:43 |
| Julia | artisan: tail -f /var/log/syslog | 16:43 |
| madjoe | yeryry, Dr_Willis: no, not to run IE8, maybe there's some light IE-viewer, I need it for the development only.. not for surfing.. but ok, I'll go with wine then | 16:43 |
| yeryry | ActionParsnip: that would be for madjoe | 16:43 |
| artisan | Julia: nope. | 16:43 |
| w00tw00t | i have installed CCSM, but can i find it in the main menu? i wish to start it | 16:43 |
| madbiologist | madjoe - the User Agent Switcher extension might be what you need. | 16:43 |
| Dr_Willis | madjoe: theres no such thing that ive ever seen. | 16:43 |
| demonspork | on Ubuntu 9.10, I had Google Chrome running in the background for a long time, using it periodically. After a recent stint of not using it for a while, I switched to that window and my system suddenly slowed to a crawl. The mouse moves only a little bit, very jumpy, I can't even SSH into it, it takes forever to acknowledge a connection and then never does reach a shell after entering the password. I tried switching to another TTY and log | 16:43 |
| demonspork | ging in there and trying to kill Chrome or whatever was causing this bug (it may be compiz) But that did the same thing as SSH. How can I kill the process that is destroying my system without forcing a restart and losing all of my work? | 16:43 |
| lisa_ | could be luksopen | 16:43 |
| arthurmaciel | blackxored: I just can't. | 16:43 |
| ActionParsnip | w00tw00t: press alt+f2 type: ccsm press enter | 16:44 |
| artisan | Julia: actually there is nothing regarding connections, just eg. the kernel messsages regarding the 3g modem, but nothing network related | 16:44 |
| blackxored | w00tw00t, system -> preferences -> settings manager | 16:44 |
| notbenh | Is there a better place to ask udev questions? | 16:44 |
| Wavesonics | hhmmm i dont have a .bash_profile in 10.04, is htat just b/c it hasnt been created yet? or is that deprecated? | 16:44 |
| arthurmaciel | blackxored: I really suspect it is a problem with X. How can I reinstall it? | 16:44 |
| Dr_Willis | madbiologist: the reason the ies4linux thing was developed was to let one run ie to 'test' your web devopment in a real IE. | 16:44 |
| blackxored | arthurjohnson, and how do you plan to install *anything* in such an issolation state, no cd, wow? | 16:44 |
| Julia | artisan: ok, i thought it might be there because wifi stuff gets logged there on my machine. | 16:44 |
| ActionParsnip | demonspork: ps -ef | grep -i chrom | 16:44 |
| blackxored | arthurjohnson, you might have not, maybe tweaking /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 16:44 |
| w00tw00t | thanks blackxored!!! i found it! | 16:44 |
| blackxored | will do it | 16:44 |
| ActionParsnip | demonspork: then kill the pid using -9 option | 16:44 |
| arthurmaciel | blackxored: does not the upgrade from 9.10 to 10.04 happened that way, replacing core packages? | 16:44 |
| madjoe | madbiologist: user agent switcher just changes the user agent.. it does not help me to render the page like IE does... | 16:44 |
| shkiper | hey people. Anybode executed the fallout 1 ? | 16:44 |
| blackxored | w00tw00t, np next time go watch a little bit first ;) | 16:45 |
| blackxored | arthurjohnson, always does | 16:45 |
| blackxored | arthurjohnson, that's the point of a dist-upgrade | 16:45 |
| Pici | !dist-upgrade | blackxored | 16:45 |
| ubottu | blackxored: A dist-upgrade will install new dependencies for packages already installed and may remove packages if they are no longer needed. Please see !upgrade for the proper way to upgrade to a new version of Ubuntu. | 16:45 |
| tull | lisa, gparted or gnome disk utility doesn't say you the type of encryption? | 16:45 |
| blackxored | I have a dialog with arthurjohnson ;) hope he's not there ;) | 16:46 |
| arthurmaciel | blackxored: after upgrading some packages (I don't know wich - ubuntu that did it) I cannot boot. How can I fix it? | 16:46 |
| madjoe | Dr_Willis: ies4linux is for older IE browser only... I was hoping there's something similar for IE8 | 16:46 |
| blackxored | Pici, thank you but that's supposed to help me how? | 16:46 |
| Pici | blackxored: Because dist-upgrades are not for upgrading to the next release of Ubuntu | 16:46 |
| blackxored | arthurjohnson, rephrase can't boot, you see grub, you see splash, you see X, you see GDM? where are you exactly stock | 16:46 |
| Pici | blackxored: and you're responding to the wrong nick ;) | 16:47 |
| blackxored | Pici, I was refering to distribution upgrade, probably you're talking about apt-get dist-upgrade :P | 16:47 |
| jwdavidjw | UML 2.0 infp? | 16:47 |
| blackxored | Pici, yes I pointed that out ;) | 16:47 |
| jwdavidjw | UML 2.0 information | 16:47 |
| kraehe | can someone tell me where ubuntu stores the list of locales to generate on `dpgk-reconfigure locales` (normaly this would be /etc/locale.gen - but ubuntu ignores this file) | 16:47 |
| demonspork | ActionParsnip, I need a place to enter that command, I ssh never reaches a shell, another TTY never reaches a shell, they both finish the login but never reach a prompt, and the GUI is completely useless (it won't even rerender correctly after switching back from the other TTY) | 16:47 |
| Pici | blackxored: No, I mean you still are talking to 'arthurjohnson' not arthurmaciel | 16:47 |
| blackxored | Pici, yeah | 16:48 |
| blackxored | I should be getting lunch by now | 16:48 |
| blackxored | :P | 16:48 |
| arthurmaciel | guys, how is the Xorg package called? I intend to remove it. | 16:48 |
| subspider | guys i don't have sound | 16:48 |
| subspider | !sound | 16:48 |
| ubottu | If you're having problems with sound, click the Volume applet, then Sound Preferences, and check your Volume, Hardware, Input, and Output settings.

| madjoe | How valid is my fear of using Wine (regarding security)? Should I rather not use it without any "extra protection"? | 16:49 |
| onetinsoldier | kraehe: hmmm, not certain, but you might want to look at the following file --> /etc/default/locale | 16:50 |
| madbiologist | madjoe - I guess a VM would be slightly better than dual booting | 16:50 |
| demonspork | ActionParsnip, nevermind, the other TTY finally hit a shell after about 17 minutes | 16:51 |
| kraehe | onetinsoldier, this file defines the default locale - not the list to generate | 16:51 |
| onetinsoldier | kraehe: roger | 16:51 |
| madjoe | madbiologist: I already use Ubuntu in a dual boot environment... actually I use wubi now... | 16:51 |
| Noo | hey I just installed ubuntu and now I wanted surf on a website with javascript on it with the firefox but neither he does't show me the javascript part nor does he say something like "would you like to install javascript" .... can anybody tell me what to do? | 16:51 |
| leagris | Thanks ActionParsnip yes I use system wide static eth0. I wondered if NetworkManager would be able to show correct interface state. I can get ride of the NetworkManager though It may break proper upgrade from ubuntu-desktop meta-package. Thanks. | 16:52 |
| h00k | Noo: are you referring to Java and not Javascript? | 16:52 |
| Wavesonics | Noo, FF has JS already, it might not be enabled though | 16:52 |
| Noo | hmm... I thought it is javascript | 16:52 |
| guntbert | demonspork: I have seen such behaviour when the machine wasn't able to find a DNS server it had configured | 16:52 |
| Dr_Willis | madjoe: ive seen a few ubuntu-variants that install inside windows and run at the same time. :) 'andlinux' (anlinux>?) and one other.. I forget the vm they are using to do the neat trick | 16:52 |
| Noo | on www.chessgames.com | 16:52 |
| ActionParsnip | leagris: if you use the interfaces file it supercedes network manager apps unfortunately. If you only use eth0 then network manager is now useless and can be uninstalled | 16:52 |
| Noo | when you click on a game then it javascript right? | 16:52 |
| madbiologist | Do I need to (or should I) use any particular configure -- flags when building gtk+ on Lucid? | 16:53 |
| onetinsoldier | kraehe: ok, looks to be... /etc/locale.alias ...if that's not it, i don't know | 16:53 |
| Noo | ok if its java what should I do then? | 16:53 |
| h00k | !java | Noo | 16:53 |
| ubottu | Noo: To install a Java runtime/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java products search for sun-java6 -packages from the !Multiverse repository (!partner repository in Lucid) | 16:53 |
| look | !fuel | 16:53 |
| look | !wow | me | 16:54 |
| ubottu | me: Information about games on Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Games and http://www.icculus.org/lgfaq/gamelist.php | 16:54 |
| Noo | well I have installed the openjdk-6-jdk should that work ? | 16:54 |
| kraehe | *no* its also not this file - this file defines the alias'es - i've tried a find | xargs fgrep - and it looks as if ubuntu does NOT store the info of the list of locales to generate on reconfigure inside /etc | 16:54 |
| madjoe | Dr_Willis, madbiologist: I'd like to install Ubuntu 10.4 on my dedicated partition and treat it as the default OS.. I think I'll go with wine then.. but how valid is my fear from using Wine anyway (regarding security)? | 16:54 |
| guntbert | !askthebot | look | 16:54 |
| tull | i have ubuntu lucid and suspension is not enabled. Ibernation is enabled. How can enable suspension? | 16:54 |

| mustu | Hi, why one can't sue Ubuntu for shipng non-free software? | 16:55 |
| demonspork | guntbert, I saw this behavior the other day when I was trying to write a 27GB backup file to an NTFS partition on this machine via FTP | 16:55 |
| Dr_Willis | madjoe: why are you thinking wine is a security issue? | 16:55 |
| _blackwater_ | un1x01d: | 16:55 |
| Dr_Willis | madjoe: you planning on running malware in wine? | 16:55 |
| h00k | mustu: what? | 16:55 |
| guntbert | demonspork: you can investigate with top immediately after finally getting a shell | 16:56 |
| swapy | where is recent in ubuntu ie i recently played files | 16:56 |
| h00k | swapy: Places -> Recent Documents | 16:56 |
| clayg | what is the site that tells all the different things you can add, it's like a beginner page with a bunch of programs, codecs, and different stuff to add | 16:56 |
| aetaric | mustu: you aren't making much sense. | 16:56 |
| h00k | !manual | clayg | 16:56 |
| ubottu | clayg: The Ubuntu Manual will help you become familiar with everyday tasks such as surfing the web, listening to music and scanning documents. With an emphasis on easy to follow instructions, it is suitable for all levels of experience. http://ubuntu-manual.org/ | 16:56 |
| Dr_Willis | !manual | clayg | 16:56 |
| Dr_Willis | heh | 16:56 |
| madjoe | Dr_Willis: oh I read something about Ubuntu regarding security and I just remember that if I install wine then I'll probably allow some potential viruses, or malware for Win to be active on my Ubuntu, which sucks if it's true... | 16:56 |
| clayg | found it, ubuntuguide | 16:56 |
| domjohnson | How do I change the root password in 10.04? | 16:57 |
| aetaric | !info clamav | 16:57 |
| ubottu | clamav (source: clamav): anti-virus utility for Unix - command-line interface. In component main, is optional. Version 0.96+dfsg-2ubuntu1 (lucid), package size 308 kB, installed size 568 kB | 16:57 |
| Dr_Willis | madjoe: i think you missread the artical or it was wrong. | 16:57 |
| h00k | !root | domjohnson | 16:57 |
| ubottu | domjohnson: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 16:57 |
| sgo11 | hi, any open source ajax-based document viewer so that I can embed it to my own website? thanks. | 16:57 |
| domjohnson | h00k - but there is a root account, no? | 16:57 |
| aetaric | domjohnson: yes there is | 16:57 |
| Dr_Willis | madjoe: unless you download/run malware email atatchments or other silly things in wine.. its really not an issue | 16:57 |
| aetaric | just sudo -i | 16:57 |
| domjohnson | aetaric - what is the password for the root account? | 16:58 |
| mustu | aetaric, once i read that Ubuntu trademark is registered in such a country where others can't sue Ubutu ... Fedora doesn't ship any non-free bcoz its registered in USA... I need to know name of that conntry here Ubuntu trademark is regsitered.. | 16:58 |
| onetinsoldier | domjohnson: sudo -i | 16:58 |
| ActionParsnip | !noroot | domjohnson | 16:58 |
| ubottu | domjohnson: We do not support having a root password set. See !root and !wfm for more information. | 16:58 |
| guntbert | domjohnson: but it has no password | 16:58 |
| acicula | domjohnson, the root account has no pasword, as you cant login as root, you can do stuff as root using sudo | 16:58 |
| h00k | domjohnson: please see that article in the first factoid that I sent you | 16:58 |
| domjohnson | I know about Sudo and all that jazz, but I need the root account for webmin | 16:58 |
| aetaric | domjohnson: it is nulled. so you can't login as root. just use sudo -i | 16:58 |
| madjoe | Dr_Willis: so there's nothing to be worried if I use wine and surf the web with Ubuntu? like if I go to any xxx site and pick up some trash with my browser? | 16:58 |
| jrib | !webmin | domjohnson | 16:58 |
| ubottu | domjohnson: webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system. See !ebox instead. | 16:58 |
| Dr_Willis | madjoe: you said earlier you were NOT going to use IE in wine to surf the web.. just to test your web development. | 16:58 |
| IdleOne | domjohnson: You aren't off to a good start. you want to use an app that is not supported with a user account that is not supported | 16:59 |
| domjohnson | !ebox | 16:59 |
| ubottu | ebox is a web-based GUI interface for administering a server. It is designed to work with Ubuntu/Debian style configuration management. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/eBox | 16:59 |
| Noo | ok thank you I think its going to work now . The icedtea6-plugin package was missing :) | 16:59 |
| Dr_Willis | madjoe: or are you refering to using firefox or some other linux browser while having wine installed? | 16:59 |
| aetaric | mustu: i'm pretty sure if it is a US trademark, it will be on http://tess2.uspto.gov/ | 16:59 |
| blendmaster1024 | how do i configure something with the autotools configure so that it is compiled in debug mode? | 16:59 |
| madjoe | Dr_Willis: that's what I said, and that's true, yes... now I didn't say anything different.. for browsing the web I use Firefox or Chrome... | 16:59 |
| domjohnson | ok...that's kinda sucky. | 16:59 |
| domjohnson | !ebox | 16:59 |
| soumya | hi all | 16:59 |
| madjoe | Dr_Willis: yeah.. while having wine installed | 16:59 |
| aetaric | domjohnson: sudo -i gives you a root prompt | 17:00 |
| ActionParsnip | domjohnson: having root disabled is very smart | 17:00 |
| mustu | aetaric, no Ubuntu isn't a US product that's why it ships non-free softwares... | 17:00 |
| Pici | mustu: You may want to take a look at and/or contact http://www.ubuntu.com/legal | 17:00 |
| Dr_Willis | madjoe: not an issue.. whatever artical said it was... was.. well.. paranoid. :) | 17:00 |
| soumya | my problem is that my connection manager cannot save any network settings | 17:00 |
| exigraff | sgo11: what kind of document? | 17:00 |
| blendmaster1024 | how do i configure something with the autotools configure so that it is compiled in debug mode? | 17:00 |
| soumya | i can edit network settings and hit apply and then everything disappears | 17:00 |
| aetaric | ActionParsnip: actually not so much. sudo gives you access to the same kind of problems | 17:00 |
| mustu | Pici, i couldnt find that piece of info / i had read it in a article .. that country is called heaven for suc companies who wanna remain safe frm getting sued | 17:00 |
| sgo11 | exigraff, any document type should be fine. such framework/application can even have their own format. | 17:01 |
| ActionParsnip | aetaric: sure but an attacker from the outside has to now guess the username and password rather than getting the username right as root is on every account | 17:01 |
| sgo11 | exigraff, I found out flexpaper is very cool. but it's flash-based. I would like to see an ajax-based one. but so far I couldn't find one by googling. | 17:01 |
| ActionParsnip | system sorry, not account | 17:01 |
| onetinsoldier | blendmaster1024: perhaps try asking in #ubuntu-dev | 17:01 |
| p1und3r | can anyone help me out with a strange ubuntu server anomaly :D | 17:01 |
| blendmaster1024 | onetinsoldier: just thought of that | 17:01 |
| domjohnson | So....is there any package I can use that is like webmin? | 17:01 |
| h00k | !anyone | p1und3r | 17:01 |
| ubottu | p1und3r: 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? | 17:01 |
| burg | hello. i upgraded ubuntu from 9.10 to 10.04 - and i can`t see the volume icon in the task bar, near the clock. how can i see it again? | 17:02 |
| ActionParsnip | domjohnson: ebox | 17:02 |
| onetinsoldier | blendmaster1024: roger... good luck | 17:02 |
| h00k | domjohnson: yes, ebox, as you were directed earlier | 17:02 |
| saxin | When I use Gwibber 2.30.0.1 (Ubuntu 10.04) there is no notifications in the upper-right corner when friends are posting (I use facebook). But if I click the "Like this message"-button the notification is working great. What can the reason for that be? :) | 17:02 |
| p1und3r | sometimes i just lose internet out of no where, and i must reset my router to regain internet, how can I find out whats going on? | 17:02 |
| aetaric | p1und3r: #ubuntu-server | 17:02 |
| p1und3r | tru thanks | 17:02 |
| h00k | p1und3r: if you have to reset your router, it sounds like you're router is silly. | 17:02 |
| Dr_Willis | or the isp is having some issues | 17:02 |

| Pici | mustu: Okay? I linked you to where such legal questions about Ubuntu should be directed. We cannot really answer those questions to any certainty. Any other legal questions related to trademark policy for other software is not really on-topic for this channel. You might find someone to talk about it in #ubuntu-offtopic though. | 17:03 |

| ubottu | simar: Saying "It says nothing", "It does nothing" is generally not very useful for troubleshooting. Please be as specific as possible: if you see a black screen, say so, if you see a shell prompt, say so, if you see an !error message, say so - Also, most !CLI commands don't print anything when they succeed, but only when they fail. | 17:06 |

| humbolt | I cant figure out, why samba shares dont work for me. this used to be so simple. | 17:20 |
| erUSUL | !checkinstall | 17:20 |
| ubottu | checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall - Read the warnings at the top and bottom of that web page, and DO NOT interrupt CheckInstall while it's running! | 17:20 |
| madbiologist | That does sound handy, with the apt integration | 17:21 |

Hard disks dont mount, I cant see the flash disk I just plugged in, and I cant seem to get automatic login to work. If automatic login works, it logs into the gnome desktop. Please help! | 17:56 |
| motaka2 | IdleOne: not allowing | 17:56 |
| ActionParsnip | kcw12: use: sudo apt-get install gparted; gksudo gparted | 17:56 |
| Aumgn | well, i had the same, and installed drivers, worked | 17:56 |
| kcw12 | ActionParsnip in recovery console will that work? | 17:56 |
| theadmin | Aumgn: I do have the drivers, so no... | 17:57 |
| theadmin | Hm, restarting X solved it | 17:57 |
| Aumgn | :) | 17:57 |
| IdleOne | motaka2: in that case I am not sure what to tell you. I guess you could change it to something completely different and then change it again to what you want | 17:57 |
| Aumgn | so, can anyone help me out? i still can't open php webpages in firefox | 17:57 |
| motaka2 | IdleOne: let me check | 17:57 |

| Aumgn | theadmin, but a page ending in .php fails | 17:58 |
| kcw12 | is there ayways to temporaryly link /var to a folder on another drive? then when the pc reboots it will mount to the drive u need | 17:58 |
| ActionParsnip | kcw12: you can use: sudo fdisk then to create the partiton, you can then use: sudo mkfs.ext4 /dev/partition-name to format it, you can then edit fstab to mount the partition. You may need to copy the current /var contents to the new partition | 17:58 |
| theadmin | Aumgn: Where is the page located? | 17:58 |
| theadmin | Aumgn: Link, please | 17:58 |

| cozziemoto | swapy, under the "Desktop" category Widget layer plugin | 18:23 |
| h00k | saxin: there's an "Only display notifications on a mention" checkbox in gwibber's preferences, perhaps uncheck that | 18:23 |
| Mcl0vin | ok | 18:23 |
| thorhalland | ah ken thanks | 18:23 |
| xukun | brianherman, yes everything else is working | 18:23 |
| theadmin | What is "exec" thing for (bash), as a matter of fact? | 18:23 |
| cozziemoto | swapy, click on widget layer plugin go into the "behaviour" tab | 18:23 |
| swapy | cozziemoto, yes then | 18:23 |
| brianherman | xukun: Ok that means that ubuntu has defaulted to the vesa driver, you wont get desktop effects but everything else works. | 18:23 |

| h00k | !anyone | steve__ | 18:25 |
| ubottu | steve__: 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? | 18:25 |
| thorhalland | hello? | 18:25 |
| exalt | h00k: cool, when you see the trend, we'll make it! | 18:25 |
| RedNifre | hello | 18:25 |
| Ken8521 | i have a laptop cooler pad on my laptop(USB) why would it be constantly shutting off and on? Also, I notice the laser on my optical mouse, is constantly going dim/bright/dim/bright.. but appears tobe functional all the time | 18:25 |
| mahmod | yes man I want 2 Install it in wine but something wronge | 18:25 |
| synchance | hello,everybody,i know "C-d" stands for "Ctrl-c" but what's the key "M" in "M-c"? | 18:26 |
| brianherman | Ken8521: thats your computer trying to save energy, dont worry about it. | 18:26 |
| RedNifre | M might be meta | 18:26 |
| cozziemoto | steve__, what is djl? googling | 18:26 |
| h00k | thorhalland: the thumbdrives don't appear to be mounting at all? | 18:26 |
| RedNifre | If your keyboard has a Meta key | 18:26 |
| steve__ | not allowed to start a sentence with *anyone* | 18:26 |
| Ken8521 | brianchidester, its annoying as hell, and it's running on power, no need to save energy | 18:26 |
| Ken8521 | can i turn it off? | 18:26 |
| Mischievous | how do I remove the "me menu" social networking icon from the panel indicator applet in the panel? It's the one that looks like an envelope with links to evolution/empathy/pidgin/gwibber/etc. | 18:26 |
| thorhalland | Hook -not at all -they were fine under KK but after upgrade wont work | 18:26 |
| cozziemoto | steve__, no I have not tried that | 18:26 |
| mahmod | sir I went 2 that website but I can't find the download link | 18:27 |
| h00k | thorhalland: After you plug one in, can you check 'dmesg | tail | 18:27 |
| h00k | ' | 18:27 |
| mahmod | or that's just 4 explaining | 18:27 |
| h00k | thorhalland: in a terminal and see if it is showing that they are indeed plugged in? | 18:27 |
| thorhalland | I hav eno idea how to check dmesg tail | 18:27 |
| brianherman | Ken8521: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=846480 | 18:27 |
| Ken8521 | thanks | 18:27 |
| brianherman | Ken8521: It complicated though. | 18:27 |
| synchance | RedNifre: semms that my keyboard has no that "Meta key".. | 18:27 |
| itsa | Mischievous: righ click and remove from pannel | 18:28 |
| Ken8521 | brianchidester, this is not an internal fan... it's a USB fan | 18:28 |
| h00k | thorhalland: open up a terminal, Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal, and type this without quotes: 'dmesg | tail' | 18:28 |
| GeekSquid | synchance: windows key | 18:28 |
| Nitsuga | synchance, the key eith the windows logo | 18:28 |
| === ahmed is now known as Guest26744 | ||
| Nitsuga | with | 18:28 |
| RedNifre | sometimes the Windows/Apple-key is configured as a Meta key | 18:28 |
| steve__ | i heard it called super key yesterday | 18:28 |
| Mischievous | itsa: that removes the entire indicator applet, I want to remove only the me menu envelope icon | 18:28 |
| h00k | thorhalland: and then can you paste that into http://pastebin.ubuntu.com, hit Paste!, and get me the link? | 18:28 |
| Mcl0vin | GeekSquid: now when i cat /log/file | pastebinit . nothing happen and i don't get a shell prompt unless i ^c or ^z | 18:28 |
| thorhalland | how do I do a vertical line? | 18:29 |
| Hans_Henrik | where should this bug be reported? : using update-manager to update from 9.10 to 10.04 in desktop edition will stop ssh service | 18:29 |
| h00k | thorhalland: shift + \ | 18:29 |
| h00k | thorhalland: right above "Enter" | 18:29 |
| theadmin | Hans_Henrik: I think in update-manager | 18:29 |
| mophead | IS anyone else having problems with lacking a top bar when booting ubuntu sometimes? How do I fix this? | 18:29 |
| Micheal` | anyone know how to install wfica? | 18:30 |
| GeekSquid | Mcl0vin: give me a min, doing the same here, see if i can fix | 18:30 |
| steve__ | i have an amnesiac panel bar too | 18:30 |
| Mcl0vin | GeekSquid: cool | 18:30 |
| erpingham | Micheal`, I've done it before. | 18:30 |
| h00k | mophead: you can start by resetting the panel to it's defaults and seeing if it continues | 18:30 |
| h00k | !resetpanel | mophead | 18:30 |
| ubottu | mophead: To reset the panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » | 18:30 |
| mahmod | Guys I'd install yahoo messenger on wine but stills same error ? | 18:30 |
| onetinsoldier | Mcl0vin: replace 'file' with the name of an actual file on /var/log... or /log or whatever it is. or just try --> pastebinit /var/log/<filename> | 18:30 |
| Micheal` | i was looking thru synaptic didnt see it though | 18:30 |
| h00k | mahmod: you need to check with #winehq for wine support | 18:31 |
| Scunizi | Why is Cups loosing information on an installed network printer? (9.04) | 18:31 |
| mophead | h00k: wouldn't that put the buttons back on the left? I prefer them on the right. | 18:31 |
| mahmod | ok | 18:31 |
| h00k | mophead: that resets your gnome-panel, it doesn't touch your button config | 18:31 |
| mahmod | thank U sir | 18:31 |
| thorhalland | I have pasted as required | 18:31 |
| mophead | uh oh... how do I undo that? | 18:31 |
| h00k | thorhalland: what is the link to that paste? | 18:31 |
| synchance | i find the "M-c".. from the info command, but it seems not work by windows key | 18:31 |
| h00k | mophead: undo resetting the panel? could make your customizations again | 18:32 |
| mophead | shit... I had a lot of customizations | 18:32 |
| thorhalland | Hook | 18:32 |
| thorhalland | http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/431796/ | 18:32 |
| thorhalland | http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/431796/ | 18:32 |
| theadmin | synchance: M-c would be Alt+C | 18:32 |
| thorhalland | hook http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/431796/ | 18:32 |
| mophead | I really really shouldn't have done that | 18:32 |
| steve__ | ok is there a way to stop the text window scrolling in xchat so i can copy txt? | 18:32 |
| Capcap | when i hit capslock it types a T is there anyway to turn that off? its obnoxious | 18:32 |
| h00k | thorhalland: got it | 18:33 |
| GeekSquid | Mcl0vin: you said /log/file ... try something simple like lspci |pastebin | 18:33 |
| Micheal` | erpingham, any pointers you can give me? | 18:33 |
| GeekSquid | Mcl0vin: pastebinit | 18:33 |
| erpingham | Michael`: sorry, my pidgin client crashed | 18:33 |
| Hans_Henrik | holy c* google is down! o.0 | 18:33 |
| h00k | thorhalland: I think fd0 refers to a floppy drive, is that what you're using? | 18:33 |
| Micheal` | erpingham, no worries | 18:33 |
| onetinsoldier | steve__: on mine, if i scroll up a little with my mouse scrollwheel, it stops the xchat messages from scrolling | 18:33 |
| h00k | Hans_Henrik: it works here | 18:33 |
| thorhalland | no - I am using a USB stick | 18:33 |
| mophead | h00k is there a way I can open the file I just changed, and undo the change? | 18:33 |
| erpingham | Micheal`: I believe if you try to use the client, Citrix will offer you a download for Linux. Use that. | 18:34 |
| Hans_Henrik | h00k: now it works here too, but i couldn't load google for a few seconds (while www.123spill.no worked fine) | 18:34 |
| h00k | mophead: no, but log out and back in a few times and see if your panel is still dying | 18:34 |
| Mcl0vin | GeekSquid: well i didn't type the whole path here , but it is a valid log | 18:34 |
| mophead | h00k: no, I mean change back the thing I just changed, the gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel | 18:34 |
| thorhalland | h00k I am using a usb stick | 18:35 |
| h00k | mophead: No, that reset your gnome-panel to default to see if something in your customizing was breaking it | 18:35 |
| GeekSquid | Mcl0vin: we are working with different versions, so, in order to properly debug, please do lspci | pastebinit , and see if you still get errors | 18:35 |
| mophead | ok | 18:35 |
| bambam_ | Hello Everyone ! I would like to know if there is any good IDE for python,java,php,c,c++ for ubuntu | 18:35 |
| theadmin | bambam_: NetBeans | 18:35 |
| equilibrium | eclipse is the best | 18:35 |
| erpingham | Micheal`: are you 64 bit by the way? That is what I have, and there are some additional workarounds for that. | 18:35 |
| theadmin | bambam_: For all those :D | 18:36 |
| h00k | thorhalland: can you do the following: sudo apt-get install pastebinit; dmesg | pastebinit; | 18:36 |
| simar_mohaar | not able to open ubuntu ... due to uninstalling nvidia ... black screen ... help | 18:36 |
| h00k | thorhalland: from the terminal | 18:36 |
| Mcl0vin | GeekSquid: same thing | 18:36 |
| bambam_ | netbeans or eclipse ? which one should I go for. | 18:36 |
| Micheal` | yes | 18:36 |
| theadmin | bambam_: Both are worth checking out | 18:36 |
| onetinsoldier | bambam_: for c/c++ try codeblocks. however 8.02 is really really old. you might want to follow their wiki on downloading/compiling the latest 'svn' version of it | 18:36 |
| bambam_ | I am almost a newbie when it comes to programming | 18:36 |
| onetinsoldier | ubottu: codblocks | bambam_ | 18:36 |
| onetinsoldier | ubottu: info codeblocks | bambam_ | 18:37 |
| erpingham | Micheal`: were you able to get a tarball? | 18:37 |
| Hans_Henrik | onetinsoldier: not long till next release btw | 18:37 |
| h00k | mophead: Check to see if the problem still exists with a default panel, then make your customizations again, see if it crashes, if it does, check ~/.xsession-errors | 18:37 |
| Micheal` | looking now | 18:37 |
| onetinsoldier | Hans_Henrik: ahh, roger. cool | 18:37 |
| bambam_ | onetinsoldier: so codeblocks is good IDE for all ? | 18:37 |
| Capcap | when i hit capslock it types a T is there anyway to turn that off? its obnoxious | 18:37 |
| bambam_ | or just c,c++ | 18:37 |
| thorhalland | its unpacking | 18:37 |
| thorhalland | OK its finieshed | 18:38 |
| thorhalland | finished | 18:38 |
| h00k | thorhalland: Alright, this will let me any important information in your dmesg (kernel ring buffer) about devices that you plug in or errors they are having | 18:38 |
| itsa | how to fix these warning? please see here: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/vXcw8LDX | 18:38 |

| private_meta | my key! | 18:40 |
| h00k | thorhalland: did you do dmesg | pastegin? | 18:40 |
| onetinsoldier | bambam_: don't know. i'm not really a developer. however, i have installed it and taken a look at it, and it looks really nice. but i don't know if it's for other than c/c++ | 18:40 |
| h00k | thorhalland: *pastebinit | 18:40 |
| Mcl0vin | GeekSquid: how , with apt-get | 18:40 |
| h00k | thorhalland: that should spit out a link that you can paste here | 18:40 |
| onetinsoldier | bambam_: let me start it up again right now and see if i can see anything like what you're asking | 18:40 |
| APERSON | can anyone give me the name of the graphical os selection menu that one can install? | 18:40 |
| simar_mohaar | help needed!!!! urggent | 18:40 |
| bambam_ | In that case I will go for eclipse, as I want one interface for all languages | 18:40 |

| h00k | thorhalland: in the terminal, can you do: dmesg | pastebinit | 18:41 |
| abstrakt | bambam_, i would suggest netbeans instead, eclipse is buggy | 18:41 |

| simar_mohaar | sebsebseb, ya i uninstalled all old kernels too!!! | 18:44 |
| GeekSquid | fagel: ssh and VNC are two different protocols 2 different worlds | 18:44 |
| sebsebseb | simar_mohaar: which version of Ubuntu? | 18:44 |
| GeekSquid | Mcl0vin: awesome | 18:44 |
| arand | GeekSquid: Glad to know my ppa is useful to someone :D | 18:44 |
| simar_mohaar | sebsebseb, 10.04 lucid lync | 18:44 |
| sebsebseb | simar_mohaar: ok why did you get rdi fo the propritary driver? | 18:45 |

| steve__ | I just entered "gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel" and it says no process found, but then i realised i'm using xfce, so gconf is probably wrong, no? | 18:45 |
| GeekSquid | arand: it really should be incorporated into the ubuntu package tree, as it fixes the api for karmic and jaunty | 18:45 |
| neolitic | I think maybe I'm too stupid for this | 18:45 |
| itsa | kesi: look at swappiness section | 18:45 |
| simar_mohaar | sebsebseb, i think i removed `nvidia two times one properity n one some other .... | 18:46 |
| GeekSquid | fagel: use the nautilus Connect to server function in Places | 18:46 |
| kesi | itsa, ok but why would this change with the upgrade and do I want more or less? | 18:46 |
| ActionParsnip | steve__: have you tried asking in #xubuntu | 18:46 |
| sebsebseb | simar_mohaar: some other? | 18:46 |
| sebsebseb | simar_mohaar: by default 10.04 has noveau or whatever it's called as an open source driver | 18:46 |
| ubnub | I've just installed Ubuntu and my /etc/apt/sources.list is empty, except for the cdrom line (the install process went a bit wrong). Where can I get a list of Ubuntu servers? | 18:46 |
| simar_mohaar | sebsebseb, actually i wanted to use nvou ... some alternative of nvidia ... | 18:46 |
| onetinsoldier | 0bambam_: roger. i want to let you know that i do not see Java or php listed in there though. but codeblocks looks like quite an IDE anyway. cheers and good luck | 18:46 |
| GeekSquid | arand: happy to see someone made a fix for this, glad to have you around | 18:46 |
| arand | GeekSquid: Yea, I think I've done all the policy that should be for the bug report, but patch reviewers and sponsors are busy I guess :/ | 18:46 |
| sebsebseb | simar_mohaar: which works great with teh Plymouth 10.04 boot up | 18:46 |
| fagel | GeekSquid, Sweet thanks | 18:46 |

| ActionParsnip | KaOSoFt: have you tried: sudo smbpasswd -a $USER you can then authenticate as that user. This is necessary if you have shared a home folder | 19:24 |
| ActionParsnip | simar_mohaar: yes, the hidden folders store that info on a per user basis | 19:24 |

| simar_mohaar | ActionParsnip, whats a seprate ome partirion ... do u mean that i should replace the new installtion on new one n keep a backup of /home ??? | 19:26 |

| lubuntu-user | Hey hey | 19:26 |
| lubuntu-user | Back | 19:26 |
| roadman1980 | resno but ubuntu software says that it can b installed | 19:26 |
| lubuntu-user | It didn't work | 19:26 |
| lubuntu-user | Nothing much has changed... | 19:26 |
| nits | gidna: system-> admin-> screensaver uncheck the box which tells that password will be asked wen your screensaver is activated | 19:27 |
| resno | roadman1980: go to the skype website. and install from there | 19:27 |
| lubuntu-user | Gonne install windows... Thanks anyway for all the help... | 19:27 |
| ActionParsnip | simar_mohaar: i'm just saying its advantageous, if you plan to reinstall then do a full install with a seperate partition for home, use about 10Gb for / will cover you easily. The rest can be /home then restore the config folders from your backups | 19:27 |
| nits | lubuntu-user: what happened | 19:27 |
| miked595 | anyone have issues with kino in ubuntu? | 19:27 |

| lubuntu-user | hey nits, they gave me a way to automount. But it was unsuccessful | 19:27 |
| gidna | nits: I don't have the screensaver menu | 19:27 |
| roadman1980 | however i was searching on the net and i found on geek website how to do it | 19:27 |
| roadman1980 | and i made a comand, and i don t know if i fu*ekd up now something | 19:28 |

| onetinsoldier | chaverma: you could always compile the source code | 19:30 |

| chadi | I have a /home partition formatted with ext3, and I wanna go ext4. Data will be lost, how do I back up? | 19:32 |
| ActionParsnip | chaverma: http://ubuntuupdates.org/ppas/4 its on the beta ppa. There are instructions how to add the PPA there, you can then install kexi using apt-get adding the PPA may upgrade other apps though so install kexi then remove the PPA if you want to avoid this | 19:32 |
| simar_mohaar | ActionParsnip, no when i open recovery mode i can;t see anything as the display goes blank ... this happened after i uninstalled my nvidia ... | 19:32 |
| === root is now known as Guest46463 | ||
| resno | chadi: you somewhere to backup to. usb drive, hdd or server, etc. you can use rsnync | 19:32 |
| ActionParsnip | simar_mohaar: then use root recovery mode, the video driver is then moot | 19:32 |
| ActionParsnip | simar_mohaar: recovery mode in kernel, scroll down and select root | 19:33 |

| Nitsuga | chadi, copy everything !as root! to another filesystem (must allow permissions, for example: ext*, reiserfs, format, and copy everything again | 19:33 |
| chadi | Jordan_U I was told by someone that my data will be lost | 19:34 |
| Kentrel | resno, thats fixed it. Thanks! | 19:34 |
| paca997 | Hello. | 19:34 |
| simar_mohaar | ActionParsnip, no i can't see the menu display goes off before the men | 19:34 |
| resno | Kentrel: no problem. cheers | 19:34 |
| Jordan_U | chadi: You were misinformed. | 19:34 |
| bullgard4 | What is the function of the file ~/.gnome2/keyrings/login.keyring? (see for example http://www.fedoraforum.de/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=15684) | 19:34 |
| Nitsuga | Jordan_U, yeah, but the advantage will be partial and only to the new files, not to the fileas already there. | 19:34 |
| frostschutz | chadi: nevertheless, having a backup is always a good idea | 19:34 |
| Nitsuga | chadi, you can change an ext3 partition to a ext4 prtition, but you will se no performance gain on the existing files. | 19:35 |
| chadi | great .. and should I do the backup from a livecd or something? coz my /home partition would be in use.. | 19:35 |
| ActionParsnip | simar_mohaar: hold shift at boot, you will get the full grub menu | 19:35 |
| simar_mohaar | ActionParsnip, but i can realise the root as i have tested sudo reboot .. it opens but there is no display | 19:35 |
| simar_mohaar | ActionParsnip, ok | 19:35 |
| Jordan_U | Nitsuga: You can always re-copy the old files if you really need to. | 19:35 |
| simar_mohaar | ActionParsnip, then what | 19:35 |
| ActionParsnip | chadi: you should have a backup anyway | 19:35 |
| Nitsuga | bullgard4, save almos every password you want gnome to remember, including FTP/SSH, Gwibber, empathy, and a long etc | 19:35 |
| chadi | Nitsuga so copy them back would be the better thing to do | 19:35 |
| Nitsuga | Jordan_U, if you are recopying the files, why not start clean? | 19:36 |
| Jordan_U | chadi: It depends, why do you want to switch to ext4? | 19:36 |
| simar_mohaar | ActionParsnip, should i install nvidia binary | 19:36 |
| ActionParsnip | simar_mohaar: then you can uninstall the package, if you run: dpkg -l | grep nvidia you will see whats what and you can remove what you need | 19:36 |
| chadi | Jordan_U why not? | 19:36 |
| sebsebseb | simar_mohaar: I am back | 19:36 |
| ActionParsnip | simar_mohaar: no as the binary doesn't upgrade along with kernel updates | 19:36 |
| Nitsuga | chadi, you can do the backup in the running system, linux doesn't have things like "files in use" as windows has. | 19:36 |
| paca997 | can you help with removing of an annoying app? | 19:36 |
| Jordan_U | chadi: The "best" course of action depends on your reasons for wanting to upgrade | 19:37 |
| chadi | Nitsuga okay | 19:37 |
| warriorforgod | Can anybody tell me how to make xrandr rotate my screens before gdm runs? | 19:37 |
| ActionParsnip | paca997: use software-center | 19:37 |
| skrite99 | paca997, what app? | 19:37 |
| Nitsuga | chadi, you'll not be able to copy .gvfs, that's perfectly normal. | 19:37 |

| paca997 | skrite99: i can't remove nodm | 19:37 |

| xenocampanoli | I am seeing two outstanding bugs with my new 10.04 install on my laptop: 1. disk check slows until it never gets past 90th percentile, and 2. I lock up on switch user. | 19:37 |
| chadi | Jordan_U because ext4 is supposedly better? | 19:37 |
| xenocampanoli | Are these already known bugs? | 19:38 |
| Kentrel | After using the gconftool to move the window buttons back to the right, how do I get rid of that extra space thats now to the left of the window title | 19:38 |
| datacrusher | Kentrel, put menu:minimize,maximize,close | 19:38 |
| chadi | Jordan_U but it's ok, i can stay with ext3, i just wanted to have the same filesystem as / | 19:38 |
| paca997 | skrite99: when i try to do this i have this error | 19:38 |
| paca997 | http://wklej.org/id/332171 | 19:38 |
| ActionParsnip | simar_mohaar: the package will be removable there using apt-get as normal | 19:38 |
| Kentrel | datacrusher, thats what I have, but I still have half an inch or so of extra space | 19:39 |
| celeste | hi there | 19:39 |
| bullgard4 | Nitsuga: And what is - in contrast - the function of the file ~/.gnome2/keyrings/user.keystore? | 19:40 |
| simar_mohaar | ActionParsnip sebsebseb , i don't want to remove the package ,,, i want to install it so my display works fine as before from the root as you told me open by holding down shift at grub menu ???? | 19:40 |
| datacrusher | Kentrel, where did u put it on gconf? | 19:40 |
| Nitsuga | chadi, the main benefits it a hughe improvement on managing a lot of small files, way better seek times and much faster disk chack. IF you don't care about annything of that, for /home ext3 is great. | 19:40 |
| corpse | does anyone here use TorK? | 19:40 |
| Wavesonics | ext4 FTW! | 19:41 |
| mark___ | hey, can't get sound in ubuntu, any suggestions? | 19:41 |
| Kentrel | datacrusher, to the right. I used: gconftool-2 --set "/apps/metacity/general/button_layout" --type string "menu:minimize,maximize,close" | 19:41 |
| bullgard4 | !sound | mark___ | 19:41 |
| ubottu | mark___: If you're having problems with sound, click the Volume applet, then Sound Preferences, and check your Volume, Hardware, Input, and Output settings.

| Wavesonics | mark___, speakers? | 19:41 |
| Nitsuga | bullgard4, you can set a different password fot that one, and it's used by some apps when you have autologin enabled, as it is unencrypted by default. | 19:41 |
| chadi | Nitsuga thank you :) | 19:41 |

| mguy | What processes are using the CPU? How much RAM do you have | 19:45 |
| === westbbf is now known as westbff | ||
| bullgard4 | Bobrobyn: man 1 seahorse-daemon: "Seahorse is a GNOME application for managing encryption keys." | 19:46 |
| sebsebseb | chadi: I was going through backlog/scrollback, why do you want to do Ext4? Which version of Ubuntu? Also for full Ext4 support or at least to be sure you have it, you would need to do a clean install of Ubuntu (or if you like put some other distro on that has Ext4). | 19:46 |
| kesi | mguy, whatever program I am using seems to use 70% + of the cpu. For example, opening the system monitor now has gnome-system-monitor using 72%. I have 1GB of RAM | 19:46 |
| sebsebseb | simar_mohaar: Do you still see the Nivida boot up screen? | 19:47 |
| chadi | sebsebseb: lucid, did a clean install | 19:47 |
| roadman1980 | hm | 19:47 |
| nine_ | How do I generate closing credits for a movie in Ubuntu? | 19:47 |
| sebsebseb | chadi: ok if you arleady put Lucid on, then you should have got Ext4 by default, unless you told it not to use it of course | 19:47 |
| sebsebseb | chadi: clean install of Lucid that is | 19:47 |
| Bobrobyn | Thanks guys | 19:47 |
| chadi | sebsebseb: i have /home on its own aprtition, only / got ext4, /home is still ext3 from karmic | 19:48 |
| sebsebseb | chadi: oh right well that's ok | 19:48 |
| simar_mohaar | sebastian, ActionParsnip no , no boot up screen, my screen goes off before graphics appear , may it appear but i can't see it .... | 19:48 |
| sebsebseb | chadi: main thing is to have / in Ext4 if any | 19:48 |
| sebsebseb | chadi: altough when it wants to also do a automatic disk check of /home it will be a bit slower, when it's in Ext3 | 19:48 |
| chadi | yeah, it is in ext4 :) | 19:48 |
| ActionParsnip | simar_mohaar: as soon as the BIOS screen vanishes, hold shift | 19:48 |
| bushbaby | How would you go about reinstalling GRUB to the MBR using a liveCD having overwritten it with SYSLINUX with an install of Fedora on another partition?. Ubuntu 10.04 Is my main Distro | 19:48 |
| sebsebseb | chadi: if you converted from Ext3 to Ext4, you won't quite have the proper thing | 19:49 |
| simar_mohaar | ActionParsnip, ok | 19:49 |
| chadi | sebsebseb actually i'm thinking of resizing /home, so I might resize and format to ext4 and resize the data | 19:49 |
| Nitsuga | chadi, also remember that most probabbly in the next year a new filesystem will arive and it will make ext4 obsolete :P | 19:49 |
| ActionParsnip | kesi: try installing LXDE and logging off and selecting LXDE as the session | 19:49 |
| chadi | resize=backup the data | 19:49 |
| erUSUL | !grub2 | bushbaby | 19:49 |
| ubottu | bushbaby: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 | 19:49 |
| sebsebseb | chadi: for full Ext4 support, you need to start with a brand new partition, that has only been Ext4 | 19:49 |
| kesi | ActionParsnip, what is that? | 19:49 |
| chadi | sebsebseb that's what I am going to do | 19:50 |
| sebsebseb | chadi: ok | 19:50 |
| ActionParsnip | kesi: its a lighter faster DE than boxt Gnome and XFCE | 19:50 |
| sebsebseb | chadi: also give it a year or so, and things will be about btfs instead of Ext4 | 19:50 |
| chadi | Nitsuga that fast already? | 19:50 |
| bushbaby | erUSUL: Gah! why didn't i think of that!? thanks for your response. | 19:51 |
| Sweet | I have no input from my mic on my Intel HDA sound card using coded Realtek ALC275, G45 DEVIBX, need a workaround.... | 19:51 |
| erUSUL | bushbaby: no problem | 19:51 |
| simar_mohaar | sebsebseb, ok i will try what ActionParsnip has told me to hold down shift and removing nvidia realted ackages .... then after i will get back ... | 19:51 |
| Nitsuga | chadi, yep, btrfs seems to be going pretty well, and it is 2x faster than ext4, and 5x faster con SSD drives | 19:51 |
| An_Ony_Moose | is it a good idea to use the default of ext4 in a new installation of ubuntu? | 19:51 |
| sebsebseb | An_Ony_Moose: yes | 19:52 |
| Nitsuga | chadi, it is still experimental, just as ext4 two years ago. | 19:52 |

| kesi | ActionParsnip, is this an alternative to gnome? I don't want to be unable to use gnome | 19:52 |
| chadi | Nitsuga, sebsebseb: interesting news | 19:52 |
| An_Ony_Moose | sebsebseb, could ext3 have been causing problems in my old installation of 10.04? It kinda broke completely. Which is why I'm installing a new copy. | 19:52 |
| sebsebseb | kesi: loads, Gnome, KDE, XFCE, LXDE, and so on | 19:52 |
| sebsebseb | kesi: uhmm I accidentl typed Gnome | 19:53 |
| sebsebseb | accidently | 19:53 |
| chadi | why not ext5? | 19:53 |
| bushbaby | erUSUL: Hang on, i can't issue the commands as i have no access to the internet from the liveCD and Apparently the grub2 package is not on the installation media? | 19:53 |
| kesi | sebsebseb, OK I'm confused. What will loading LXDE fix or accomplish? | 19:53 |
| sebsebseb | chadi: btrfs will basically be Ext5, altough I think actsauly an Ext5 wil also be made | 19:53 |
| sebsebseb | kesi: I thought you asked if there was an alternative to Gnome | 19:54 |
| erUSUL | bushbaby: but it is installed in the hard disk. and if you perform trhe chroot (as the wiki explains) you will be using the hard disk commands | 19:54 |
| kesi | sebsebseb, No. Somebody in here said to install LXDE and I was wondering why since I want to use Gnome | 19:54 |
| csmrfx | openbox runs with gnome. lxde is kind of alternative, but you can run gnome services and apps if its installed. | 19:54 |
| kesi | I don't want to run a different desktop env, I want to fix mine | 19:54 |
| kesi | never had a problem with koala | 19:55 |
| sebsebseb | kesi: yeah ActionParsnip | 19:55 |
| edbian | kesi, What's the problem? | 19:55 |
| sebsebseb | kesi: why since less CPU useage and RAM useage | 19:55 |
| kesi | or with this one at first, it just happened sometime last week | 19:55 |
| drbobb | gawd, the new empathy IM client sucks, I wonder why in the world it was made default | 19:55 |
| bushbaby | erUSUL: missed the section about restoring from liveCD.. today is really not my day.. Thanks again! | 19:55 |
| erUSUL | bushbaby: no problem | 19:55 |
| sebsebseb | kesi: Which program is having the issues? | 19:55 |
| Nitsuga | kesi, are you using compiz? IF you are not, try enabling it. In some configurations it may offload the cpu. | 19:56 |
| kesi | sebsebseb, because I like gnome and I'm used to it. I shouldn't have to switch. I use compiz. It's all programs, including the system-monitory | 19:56 |
| sebsebseb | Klapo: Lubuntu/LXDE is actsauly quite similar to Gnome | 19:56 |
| edbian | drbobb, Because it connects to more protocols | 19:56 |
| sebsebseb | no not you Klapo | 19:56 |
| kesi | some update last week seems to have caused this | 19:56 |
| sebsebseb | kesi: Which version of Ubuntu? | 19:57 |
| kesi | 10.04 | 19:57 |
| drbobb | edbian: orilly? | 19:57 |
| roadman1980 | does anyone know why is skype not "available" for amd64 in 10.04 in software center? | 19:57 |
| sebsebseb | kesi: also as someone is asking do you have compiz enabled? well you probably have at least basic effects enabled | 19:57 |
| kesi | sebsebseb, 10.04. Worked fine until last week. I have compiz enabled | 19:57 |
| csmrfx | kesi sorry to inform you but the 10.4 sucks compared to 9.10. | 19:57 |
| drbobb | both empathy and pidgin do the gg protocol for instance, except empathy does it badly | 19:57 |
| edbian | drbobb, That was their reasoning. | 19:58 |
| csmrfx | I felt like someone put me OS 4 years back in time. Most things DO work though. | 19:58 |
| edbian | drbobb, facebook? | 19:58 |
| sebsebseb | csmrfx: depends on user and hardware, but yes 9.10 really is now better in certain ways, thing is before when it was the latest it was a not very good release for a lot of people, hence why quite a lot went back to 9.04, and some went to other distros | 19:58 |
| drbobb | edbian: facebook is accessible via xmpp, I'm connected on pidgin right now | 19:59 |
| josvuk | Someone here with troubles connecting to isp-provider with pon dsl-provider? I do sudo pon dsl-provider and than plog ---> no conection :-) than I have to do sudo poff -a couple times and again sudo pon dsl-provider and finally plog shows me a ppp0 conection :-( | 19:59 |
| edbian | drbobb, Can you show me a link? | 19:59 |
| csmrfx | sebsebseb: things like stripped gdm and buggy appearances does not depend on hw. | 19:59 |
| drbobb | edbian: just use facebook.username@chat.facebook.com | 19:59 |
| kesi | Does anyone have any suggestions to fix this that don't involve downgrading or ditching Gnome? | 19:59 |
| roadman1980 | why i can t install skype on 10.04? ubuntu software center says that it s not available for amd64 | 19:59 |

| markitoxs | how can i make the screen to not be turned off in ubuntu server ? | 20:00 |
| celeste_ | roadman1980, hi there | 20:01 |
| kesi | csmrfx, lockups, high cpu, high load. I can barely run xchat and if I try to open the sys monitor the computer becomes relatively unuseable. Worked fine till some time late last week | 20:01 |
| sebsebseb | csmrfx: as for other bad changes, well at least some of us, such as top panel editing and so on, that's Ubuntu | 20:01 |
| markitoxs | i remember bash had some timeout feature or seomthing? | 20:01 |
| falafell | /dev/mapper shows only the /boot space and root and full crypt_device | 20:01 |
| csmrfx | sebsebseb: what I mean is two appearance options | 20:01 |
| csmrfx | kesi oh, try opening a terminal and typing 'top' to see what hogs the cpu | 20:01 |
| roadman1980 | i wanna ask why i can t install skype on amd64 in ubuntu software center, it says because amd64 | 20:01 |
| drbobb | edbian: you might need to disable ssl in advanced xmpp settings, I don't remember exactly | 20:01 |
| sebsebseb | csmrfx: not that I remember, on another distro right on here these days :) and right now anyway, I don't feel like loading up an Ubuntu vm, to maybe see what you mean | 20:02 |
| proroot | I was going to use my S-Video tv-out under lucid lynx (Ati X700) and i'm unable to use XRANDR to force him use s-video because of an OPCODE 149 error | 20:02 |

| edbian | drbobb, My facebook username is ed.novak3 as in http://www.facebook.com/ed.novak3 so I put in facebook.ed.novak3@chat.facebook.com | 20:02 |
| marel | How can I make Vuze my default torrent program ? | 20:02 |
| kesi | csmrfx, it doesn't seem to matter. If I have FF open, that's the problem, but gedit and xchat do the same thing | 20:02 |
| sebsebseb | kesi: ah yes Firefox in Ubuntu | 20:02 |
| csmrfx | sebsebseb: perhaps it will get better | 20:02 |
| drbobb | edbian: uh no initial 'facebook' | 20:02 |
| edbian | drbobb, No luck | 20:02 |
| frostschutz | falafell: fdisk -l, make a partition? | 20:03 |
| sebsebseb | kesi: yes Firefox in Ubuntu, can slow things down | 20:03 |
| trijntje | marel, right click on a torrent file -> properties | 20:03 |

| sebsebseb | kesi: ok maybe you got failing RAM | 20:03 |
| drbobb | edbian: I meant put "your facebook username" before the @ | 20:03 |
| John____ | proroot, what is -o loop? | 20:03 |
| sebsebseb | kesi: or you don't have much RAM, and so need a bigger swap space | 20:03 |
| edbian | drbobb, hang on | 20:03 |
| llutz | proroot: why "-o loop"? | 20:03 |
| proroot | because cdrom is loop device | 20:03 |

| crashanddie | Hi, I'm currently looking at jobs for Canonical, I wanted to know if someone had some experience working for them | 20:04 |
| shauno | loopback is for mounting files as block devices. cdrom is a block device, it's not looped | 20:04 |
| erUSUL | proroot: wrong; you only need loop when you are trying to get a regular file ( an iso image) to look like a block device | 20:04 |

| kesi | is there a way to test my RAM in ubuntu? | 20:06 |
| sebsebseb | kesi: of course | 20:06 |
| _CONFIG_NR_CPUS | CONFIG_NR_CPUS=8 means than a 980x will only report 8 cores ... no 12. | 20:06 |
| sebsebseb | kesi: memtest | 20:06 |
| proroot | exit | 20:06 |
| ActionParsnip | kesi: theres an option in grub. Hold shift at boot and choose memtest | 20:06 |
| sebsebseb | kesi: which is probably still on the Grub boot loader. you can press esc I think it is to see the Grub 2 if it's not showing | 20:06 |

I don't know why but I'm not so keen to ged rid of it completely, but somehow it just takes all my resources, so I used Compiz Fusion Icon to switch my window manager temporary to Metacity... and now when I put my Visual Effects to "Normal" that setting has not been remembered by the system | 20:22 |
| mikedoty | I believe at one time (awhile back) I manually changed the default icon for folders (e.g. desktop folder icon). Today I installed a new theme, but it's still using that other (non-theme-matching) folder icon I set last time. | 20:22 |

| mikedoty | How can I remove that folder icon setting so that it uses the one in the theme I installed? | 20:22 |
| edbian | madjoe, So you want to use the icon to occasionally turn fusion icon on and off and when you reboot it forgets where it was set? Is that the problem? | 20:22 |
| tado | Turgon: the how to on the forum suggested to add the fstab line and give a sudo mount -a | 20:23 |
| tado | Turgon: i think this specific problem started from there. if i can fix this, later i can work on the automount again | 20:23 |

| madjoe | edbian: only for Visual Effects... it remembers my Window Manager setting | 20:23 |

| edbian | madjoe, With fusion icon compiz is off by default at boot so that is normal. If you want you can write a script that turns it on as soon as you log in. (virtually instantly) then compiz will be turned on everytime you log in. How does that sound? You can still use the icon to turn it on and off but everytime you reboot it will be one. | 20:25 |

| omar | hey doods, my wifi tends to die randomly. I have to do a ifconfig wlan0 down/up in order to get it connected again. transmission (bit torrent) seems to exacerbate the problem. | 21:00 |

| alexi_ | hi i downloaded a theme for and loaded into emerald, when i click it, emard just closes.. how do i apply it to compiz? | 21:00 |
| ikonia | bushbaby: re-install grub without chrooting make sure it is using the right partitions | 21:00 |
| erUSUL | !emerald | alexi_ | 21:01 |
| ubottu | alexi_: emerald is an obsolete window decorator for compiz. It's unsupported and unmaintained, making issues with it very hard to diagnose and fix. There are no known, supported alternatives. | 21:01 |
| IWannaBeTheGuy | LinuxPhreak, Thank you | 21:01 |
| respire | some poor deb guy even did it i looked all his patches and benchmarks brilliant idea | 21:01 |
| LinuxPhreak | IWannaBeTheGuy: repos deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid/ | 21:01 |
| respire | no reason ubuntu cant do it | 21:01 |
| bushbaby | ikonia: Ok thanks. I'll try that now | 21:01 |
| alexi_ | that explains that! | 21:01 |

| alexi_ | how do i apply a theme in compiz? | 21:01 |
| Alien_Freak | so.. I had Ubuntu running on an iMac.. it was running fine. I used tasksel to remove the kubuntu-desktop and ubuntu-desktop...and now it seems to be freezing in the boot process right after is finishes starting up apache . No errors or anything | 21:01 |
| respire | cuz im too lazy maybe someone will repeat it | 21:01 |
| respire | i don't care enough to fill out all your forms | 21:02 |
| erUSUL | alexi_: compiz will use metacity themes ... | 21:02 |
| alexi_ | gotcha | 21:02 |
| alexi_ | thanks!! | 21:02 |
| ikonia | respire: then we don't care to listen, this is a support hannel | 21:02 |
| respire | ok, i thought it was general ubuntu not only support | 21:02 |
| dominicdinada | Why when i set program defaults does lucid not honor them...... like i set php files to open with kate and every time it opens with gedit instead | 21:03 |

| LinuxPhreak | resno: kind of hard to do that. Backup any data on partitions and delete it. I've even done it with the grub partition not the best idea | 21:07 |
| starspot | I used gparted to delete my windoze partitions and extend my ubuntu partition to fill the whole drive - but only by using the ubuntu boot CD | 21:07 |

| hechoensonora | #ubuntu-es | 21:09 |

BUT df -h tells me that the root (70gb) is used completely .... i can't find out why !? any idea? | 21:24 |

| sebsebseb | vlitos: ok you could do a quick test, to see if it really a problem with Ubuntu, or if it's a problem with the hardware, because things aren't connected | 21:25 |

| Rev84 | Hi, I wish to install Ubuntu on my computer however I'm having trouble. I have 3 hard-drives 2 in raid0 and one 500gb sata drive. I wish to install to a partition on the 500gb drive however when I try I get the message "ubuntu no root file system is defined, please check this at the partitioning menu" Help what do I do? | 21:25 |
| sebsebseb | vlitos: boot from the Live CD and find out if wireless works | 21:25 |
| resno | how do i make the volume automount? | 21:25 |

| jayp | if nobody knows how to order the UNE favourites, can anyone tell me what the sidebar launcher is called? | 21:25 |
| helo | woot! i found a fix... the nvidia+xinerama cursor problem only happens if "screens with higher number appear to the left of screens with a lower number"... so i just had to switch the devices that each screen was associated with, so that the higher number screen was to the right... | 21:25 |

| jayp | btw has anyone tried Unity? | 21:26 |
| sebsebseb | jayp: some people yes | 21:26 |

| jayp | it is quite nice and the ideas are great | 21:27 |
| vlitos | so i am going to have the same problem | 21:27 |
| sebsebseb | jayp: it's an interesting one, ppa for 10.04, but unity itself will be in 10.10, so maybe as a result unity stuff should be in #ubuntu+1 really | 21:27 |
| Castarmax | im not aware of any specific errors which is why i posted the entire logs | 21:28 |

| BluesKaj | err 500G | 21:30 |

| LinuxPhreak | mneptok: I use that to my defense. Doesn't work to well though ;) | 21:38 |

| mahmod | I can't find my ethernet in network connections ? | 21:38 |
| sebsebseb | Mekzholan: Xorg is a complacted program for running the graphical stuff, also touch screens haven't been around for that long, plus then the whole lack of Linux manufacture support thing, which I assume they also have | 21:39 |
| LinuxPhreak | mneptok: I guess that is why I consider my employers to be idiots | 21:39 |

| LinuxPhreak | Mekzholan: the minimal will give command line only. I would suggest also install fluxbox and light wieght things | 21:49 |
| sebsebseb | Mekzholan: plus the UNR is really made for touch screens as far as I know, and won't take that much space up, hence why I am thinking you could try that | 21:49 |
| Mekzholan | sebsebseb: but it's usually easier to add only the necessary bits than to remove | 21:49 |
| crdlb | helo: why? the default font is a derivative of that font | 21:50 |
| helo | crdlb: dejavu? | 21:50 |
| wamicho | DasEi |iam the admin but the other version even if you are admin it used to ask for authorisation | 21:50 |
| alexi_ | hi, how to do remove items and update timeout on grub? the /boot/grub/grub.cfg file says not to edit | 21:50 |
| crdlb | helo: yes, it is bitstream vera with some tweaks an a lot more international characters | 21:50 |
| crdlb | and* | 21:50 |
| LinuxPhreak | Mekzholan: sebsebseb is right easier to build up then build down. I learned that the hardway | 21:50 |
| Mekzholan | LinuxPhreak: fluxbos is already heavier than necessary. An xinit chromium is enough. Only one window, full screen | 21:50 |
| sebsebseb | LinuxPhreak: did you by mistake message me just then or? | 21:51 |
| DasEi | wamicho: there is the group disk on the one hand, then also fstab regulates acces -listed or not, and with which parameters | 21:51 |
| helo | crdlb: the sizes are different... i can't get it to allow me to have teh same number of rows with this resolution | 21:51 |
| sebsebseb | Mekzholan: yes Ubuntu really is starting to come with programs, that quite a few of us more expereinced users, won't want, but it's not that difficult to remove most of that | 21:51 |
| LinuxPhreak | sebsebseb: did you tell Mekzholan: about the minimal | 21:51 |
| wamicho | DasEi | so i can return that feature? | 21:51 |
| Strernd | Hey guys, ive got ubuntu 10.04 on my notebook. when i press ctrl alt f1 the console mode should open but i only see my desktop but cant click on my desktop :( What can i do? | 21:51 |
| sebsebseb | LinuxPhreak: no he told me he was using it | 21:51 |
| sebsebseb | !minimal | 21:52 |
| ubottu | 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 | 21:52 |
| DasEi | wamicho: yes | 21:52 |
| LinuxPhreak | sebsebseb: okay my bad | 21:52 |
| helo | crdlb: ahh, using "system default font" isn't using dejavu... if i set it manually to dejavu it looks nice again. thanks :) | 21:52 |
| tado | hey all. in pidgin there is the possibility of enabling a sound when someone says your name in chat, does anyone know if such a thing exist in empathy? i can't see it... | 21:52 |
| wamicho | DasEi | how do i get it? | 21:52 |
| sebsebseb | Mekzholan: I think UNR is worth a try on your device | 21:52 |
| sebsebseb | LinuxPhreak: is UNR good for a nettop? | 21:52 |
| DasEi | wamicho: which behaviour you want ? fixed internal disk ? | 21:53 |
| Mekzholan | sebsebseb well, I'll give it a try | 21:53 |
| LinuxPhreak | sebsebseb: not familair with UNR. What is it? link info please | 21:53 |
| Mekzholan | sebsebseb I don't think nettop and netbook is making a difference here | 21:53 |
| sebsebseb | Mekzholan: I was rather impressed with it in a vm | 21:53 |
| grandrew | hi all! does anybody know how does screensaver decide which display(if there are two) to show 'unlock screen' dialog on? | 21:53 |
| sebsebseb | Mekzholan: what you mean not making a difference? as in hardware wise? | 21:53 |
| cipher42 | is btrfs in the new ubuntu? | 21:53 |
| wamicho | DasEi ya fixed internal hdd the other partition to authorise when mounting | 21:53 |
| sebsebseb | Mekzholan: I finally got round to doing a netbook version in a vm, and did like 10.04 beta 2, and was rather impressed indeed | 21:54 |
| LinuxPhreak | sebsebseb: is UNR stand for Ubuntu Net Remix? | 21:54 |
| helo | cipher42: btrfs isn't quite production ready yet | 21:54 |
| sebsebseb | LinuxPhreak: yes | 21:54 |
| sebsebseb | Mekzholan: plus from what I know so far about the 10.10 version, it seems they are going to improve it quite a bit more, however it will become even less upstream Gnome like as a result. | 21:54 |
| DasEi | wamicho: so list it in fstab an own it to root, | 21:54 |
| * helo pronounces UNR "UNURNU" | 21:54 | |
| LinuxPhreak | sebsebseb: I would have to say if that is the case then use good for netbooks and other light hardware. | 21:55 |
| sebsebseb | !unr | LinuxPhreak Mekzholan | 21:55 |
| ubottu | LinuxPhreak Mekzholan: Ubuntu Netbook Remix is a slightly altered version of Ubuntu, optimised for small screens. For more information, please see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UNR - support in #ubuntu | 21:55 |
| helo | luckily there's nobody around to hear me | 21:55 |

| wamicho | Das | 23:09 |
| jatt | hi, how do I put the maximize/minimize buttons on the right? | 23:09 |
| arvind_khadri | enav1, it has been removed from multiverse, as ubuntu now be default gives openjdk | 23:10 |
| wamicho | DasEi so they wont have that feature any mmo | 23:10 |
| acerimmer | Attila_: not under wubi. A wubi install fools windows into thinkting the ubuntu is a win7 app | 23:10 |
| markus_ | <Attila_> WHen the part comes up where to install you select the partition you chose before. It is the advanced menu | 23:10 |
| enav1 | arvind_khadri no is not | 23:10 |
| FardadJalili | when I mount my ntfs drives and use it for certain things the mount.ntfs process consumes 100% cpu, what should I do?? | 23:10 |
| acerimmer | Attila_: this is easier to set up but not as stable as a dual boot install. Either way the OS's share HDD space | 23:10 |
| Attila_ | Is it going to make a folder on my drive? | 23:10 |
| purvesh | can some one help me to opening new Translation Team ? | 23:10 |
| enav1 | now you need to change linux to choose java instead of openJava | 23:10 |
| acerimmer | Attila_: yes a regular "win7 app" folder | 23:11 |

| VCoolio | FardadJalili: that's a lot, but linux performance with ntfs is not so good; better use another file system if you want to use it more than just accessing files (like using it with torrents, that's a bad idea with ntfs) | 23:14 |

| Xenoit | Alrighty, I'll give it a shot :) | 23:27 |
| CogitoErgoSam | Xenoit: Do a postbin of "cat /etc/network/interfaces" to see if there are manual settings that are interfering | 23:28 |
| airtonix | Xenoit, cant really do much to help if you dont provide the unique product id of your wifi device. | 23:28 |
| erUSUL | MrPiracy: such programs are best installed in /opt/ copy the folder there and create the launcher | 23:28 |
| Nitsuga | MrPiracy, chack if you program has a file called "makefile" or "sConstruct" | 23:28 |
| shuttleworth | m | 23:28 |
| MrPiracy | Nitsuga: it doesnt, the folder has an icon, a script file and a bounch of others | 23:29 |
| nastjuid | Xenoit: which device would you prefer to connect with? wifi? Also, a pastebin like CogitoErgoSam suggest would be helpful in a long term resolution | 23:29 |
| Nitsuga | MrPiracy, if it has one, go to the programs folder and run sudo make install. If it doesn't, copy the folder to /opt and make the launcher. | 23:29 |

| erUSUL | MrPiracy: right click on the panel crweate launcher (personalized) in the command test box put /opt/whatevernamehere/binary.file | 23:31 |
| Nitsuga | MrPiracy, in the menu: Right click Applications -> edit menu -> go to the ccategory that fits your app, and click new in the right | 23:32 |
| CogitoErgoSam | Xenoit: No prob, just try to do a pastebin (link in channel motd) of your "ifconfig" results and contents of "/etc/network/interfaces". These will tell us if any network devices are being manually configured, and than if and how the system is detecting them | 23:33 |
| MrPiracy | Nitsuga, erUSUL: works like a charm, tyvm | 23:33 |
| erUSUL | MrPiracy: no problem | 23:33 |
| Nitsuga | MrPiracy, change the icon by clicking on the launcher icon on the left and navigate to your app's icon. | 23:33 |

| DasEi | derdui: grub changed completly to grub2 | 23:46 |
| erUSUL | Ryann_: ask in ##windows how to do that | 23:46 |
| magn3ts | I'm having three very serious problems after upgrading and I'd love any input: I have a 5,1 Apple Macbook Pro. Before the upgrade these things were not issues: One, My accelerated nvidia driver works exactly every other time I boot my computer. Every other time it tells me it has to work in failsafe mode. Second, when I wake up from sleep/hibernate, my laptop is unable to release its IP Address from my router. Three, Flash performane is te | 23:47 |
| magn3ts | rrible. Two simultaneous youtube videos are enough to crash my computer (like, the entire computer freezes and halts). I'm not so worried about the third problem because its probably a result of adobe having their thumb up their bums, but the other problems are rather serious. | 23:47 |
| uRock | You can use a livecd to install Lilo afterwards, which will repair the MBR | 23:47 |
| DasEi | !grub2 | derdui | 23:47 |
| ubottu | derdui: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 | 23:47 |
| erUSUL | Ryann_: it involves booting into recovery mode with an intaller disk and running « fixmbr » there | 23:47 |
| alpaka | pure_hate: as we say it in perl: there's always more than one way to do it | 23:47 |
| derdui | thx DasEi but where can i find that list? | 23:47 |
| sicksquirrel | yaaaay | 23:47 |
| derdui | thx DasEi | 23:47 |
| sicksquirrel | the $OLDPWD did the trick | 23:47 |
| sicksquirrel | THX!! | 23:48 |
| pure_hate | alpaka, yeah I guess if you like using extra cpu cycles :-) | 23:48 |
| jhijayz | hi all | 23:48 |
| DasEi | derdui: there are now 3 locations for configurung with even more files on there, /etc/default/grub could be of interest, but it really changed completly from grub1 | 23:48 |
| SteamInc | anybody know how to make empathy turn on when i log in? | 23:48 |
| CogitoErgoSam | sicksquirrel: np, its saved my butt a few times when scripting things that call other scripts | 23:48 |
| Ryann_ | @sebsebseb, cause it doesn't have my wireless drivers and I'm physically unable to connect by ethernet cable. + i've tried using a mobile broadband USB stick, however I don't know how to set it up - it's very different from gnome because it just asks what network I use for my mobile broadband and does the rest. | 23:48 |
| sicksquirrel | CogitoErgoSam I owe you a beer ;) | 23:48 |
| sebsebseb | Ryann_: right ok | 23:48 |
| VCoolio | SteamInc: system > preferences > startup applications | 23:49 |
| Ryann_ | In Kubuntu, I have to put in a lot of details I don't know. | 23:49 |
| sebsebseb | Ryann_: have you tried another distro that wasn't Ubuntu or Ubuntu based? | 23:49 |
| CogitoErgoSam | sicksquirrel: Careful what'cha offer, I have expensive taste in beer :P | 23:49 |
| zanzibar1982 | hi! how do I uninstall nomoroka??? | 23:49 |
| DasEi | derdui: more details on your goal ? | 23:49 |
| dima202 | Does Desktop Motherboard accept fully buffered DIMM? | 23:49 |
| SteamInc | thanks | 23:49 |
| Ryann_ | Well, I know the copy of ubuntu 9.04 I have already has my wireless drivers on it. | 23:49 |
| jeff_ranger1 | mkquist, I can't find anything for the mx340. Any other sites you can recommend? | 23:49 |
| sebsebseb | Ryann_: some distro's your wireless is likely to just work, others will need set up | 23:49 |
| flan_suse | Is there a way to disable auto-suspend/auto-shutdown when the battery is "critically low"? I ask this because on my netbook, when I unplug the AC adapter, Ubuntu warns me that there is only 2 minutes remaining on the battery, and it then suspends. This is strange, since my battery is 100% full, and it even shows it being 100% full when I resume from suspend. | 23:49 |
| sebsebseb | Ryann_: oh | 23:49 |
| cabbrick12431 | Bleh i'm in a pickle... Ok so the virtual console on my Nvidia Ge-force 6150 se never worked right... That means i can't see tty, recovery mode, nothing. It ran, until the latest updates today. Once those were installed and running, i restarted it and now the gdm won't load, and i can't see what it says cause all of the text is colorful squares... | 23:49 |
| Ryann_ | am I able to take them from that disc to kubuntu? | 23:50 |
| DasEi | zanzibar1982: sudo apt-get remove firefox* --dry-run lists the desired package(s) ? | 23:50 |
| CogitoErgoSam | zanzibar1982: The standard process for uninstalling is through the software center, or if you want to use the command line, "sudo apt-get uninstall <packagename>" | 23:50 |
| duongthaiha | zanzibar1982: go to system preference synaptic package | 23:50 |
| sebsebseb | Ryann_: probably | 23:50 |
| jeff_ranger1 | mkquist, which pixma do you have? | 23:50 |
| sebsebseb | Ryann_: I mean maybe not quite | 23:50 |
| sebsebseb | Ryann_: however the details for setting up the wireless, I expect so | 23:50 |
| DasEi | zanzibar1982: if so run without the --ru.. tail | 23:50 |
| Castarmax | I made a paste of my syslog. Will someone pls look and let me know whats wrong? http://paste.ubuntu.com/431914/ | 23:50 |
| Xenoit | Pastebin uploaded http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/yBFcxY7G | 23:50 |
| zanzibar1982 | DasEi I did not try your way yet | 23:50 |
| Ryann_ | I'm sorry, what are you asking? | 23:50 |
| derdui | DasEi, well then, my problem is, i whant to delete a partition, but i dont know really which part. that is. and i neather what to kill my karmic nor my lucid :) | 23:50 |
| zanzibar1982 | nomoroka is not listed anywhere | 23:51 |
| sebsebseb | Ryann_: you can't just use 9.04 programs in 10.04, with some exceptions | 23:51 |
| === running_rabbit07 is now known as uRock | ||
| kyubutsu | CogitoErgoSam: sudo apt-get remove | 23:51 |
| zanzibar1982 | so I need to kill it from terminal | 23:51 |
| sebsebseb | Ryann_: what about 9.10 that works? | 23:51 |
| Ryann_ | Nope. | 23:51 |
| CogitoErgoSam | kyubutsu is right, my bad. Been having one brain fart after another today | 23:51 |
| Ryann_ | 9.10 the driver isn't there. | 23:51 |
| DasEi | derdui: that's not for grub, but for fstab then | 23:51 |
| cabbrick12431 | Bleh i'm in a pickle... Ok so the virtual console on my Nvidia Ge-force 6150 se never worked right... That means i can't see tty, recovery mode, nothing. It ran, until the latest updates today. Once those were installed and running, i restarted it and now the gdm won't load, and i can't see what it says cause all of the text is colorful squares. | 23:51 |
| duongthaiha | zanzibar1982: have you search in the synaptic package manager? | 23:51 |
| Ryann_ | However, i'm able to download it if I have internet access. | 23:51 |
| magn3ts | Anyone have any help for me, I don't really want to repeat the paragraph I sent above... | 23:51 |
| Ryann_ | It's preinstalled on the 9.04 | 23:51 |
| mkquist | jeff_ranger1: 3000 | 23:52 |
| derdui | and where can i find fstab | 23:52 |
| derdui | DasEi, | 23:52 |
| pure_hate | /etc/fstab | 23:52 |
| DasEi | derdui: /etc/fstab | 23:52 |
| zanzibar1982 | the terminal tells me "11:resource not available at the moment" or similar (I am translating) | 23:53 |
| Alien_Freak | is there a way to force all packages to be re-installed | 23:53 |
| derdui | thx DasEi | 23:53 |
| Ryann_ | sebsebseb could you recommend anything? | 23:53 |
| sebsebseb | Ryann_: of course | 23:53 |
| sebsebseb | Ryann_: So have you only used Ubuntu so far? | 23:53 |
| Ryann_ | And kubuntu, on this laptop. | 23:53 |
| cabbrick12431 | Bleh i'm in a pickle... Ok so the virtual console on my Nvidia Ge-force 6150 se never worked right... That means i can't see tty, recovery mode, nothing. It ran, until the latest updates today. Once those were installed and running, i restarted it and now the gdm won't load, and i can't see what it says cause all of the text is colorful squares. | 23:53 |
| sebsebseb | Ryann_: ok | 23:53 |
| serraphyn | I'm running KDE desktop with ubuntu and I'm not able to right click as I stumbled on a way to change the buttons and I can't seem to find it again to fix it. Any help please? | 23:53 |
| CogitoErgoSam | zanzibar1982: Another thing is that different processes that manipulate packages (installing, uninstalling, etc) like Software Center, Synaptic, apt-get and aptitude all lock other programs out while they're open | 23:53 |
| sebsebseb | Ryann_: Kubuntu is really just Ubuntu, but with KDE instead of Gnome | 23:53 |
| DasEi | !pm | zanzibar1982 | 23:54 |
| ubottu | zanzibar1982: Please ask your questions in the channel so that other people can help you, benefit from your questions and answers, and ensure that you're not getting bad advice. Please note that some people find it rude to be sent a PM without being asked for permission to do so first. | 23:54 |
| DasEi | zanzibar1982: just ask here | 23:54 |
| zanzibar1982 | umm | 23:54 |
| Ryann_ | Right | 23:54 |
| zanzibar1982 | ok | 23:54 |
| CogitoErgoSam | zanzibar1982: So if you have any packages downloading, updating, or have software/center or synaptic open and you try to run a remove from somewhere else, it won't let you until the other process is done | 23:54 |
| flan_suse | Repaste, sorry: Is there a way to disable auto-suspend/auto-shutdown when the battery is "critically low"? I ask this because on my netbook, when I unplug the AC adapter, Ubuntu warns me that there is only 2 minutes remaining on the battery, and it then suspends. This is strange, since my battery is 100% full, and it even shows it being 100% full when I resume from suspend. | 23:55 |
| alket | Is there a way to use empathy icons (online,away,busy etc) in pidgin ? | 23:55 |
| magn3ts | I'm having three very serious problems after upgrading and I'd love any input: I have a 5,1 Apple Macbook Pro. Before the upgrade these things were not issues: One, My accelerated nvidia driver works exactly every other time I boot my computer. Every other time it tells me it has to work in failsafe mode.

| zanzibar1982 | ok, now I have closed other progs | 23:55 |
| mkquist | jeff_ranger1: ip3000, 10.4 just set it up without my help btw | 23:55 |
| CogitoErgoSam | flan_suse have you messed around with the Power Management control panel? | 23:55 |
| zanzibar1982 | I closed the programs running | 23:55 |
| DasEi | alket: no, put pidgin has a decent plugin-pack | 23:55 |
| Ryann_ | sebsebseb: how could i get the possible wireless drivers from the 9.04 CD to my 10.04? | 23:56 |
| derdui | hmmm.... but in the fstab, i dont see anything about my installed distros :( | 23:56 |
| zanzibar1982 | now it tells me that he removed everything... but | 23:56 |
| alket | DasEi: which one ? | 23:56 |
| Ryann_ | and check if they worked. | 23:56 |
| flan_suse | CogitoErgoSam, yes, but it only gives you two options: Shutdown or Suspend when battery is critically low. The problem is, whenever I unplug the AC power cord, it incorrectly assumes the battery is critically low, when it is not, and therefore it will suspend without even asking me. | 23:56 |
| zanzibar1982 | the truth is nomoroka is still there | 23:56 |
| sebsebseb | Ryann_: I help people out in here, because I would like Desktop Linux to gain quite a bit of market share against Windows, and at the moment Ubuntu seems to be the one that has most chance at doing this, since it has most users. Right so you could put 9.04 on, but that runs out of support at the end of October on the desktop. You could try 8.04, but that runs out of support end of April next year. Also instead of just going back to Windows, | 23:56 |
| DasEi | alket: pidgin-plugin-pack | 23:56 |
| sebsebseb | you could try another distro, such as Mandriva or PC Linux OS, which are also rather user friendly, and where your wireless may just work. | 23:56 |
| alket | DasEi thanks again | 23:57 |
| DasEi | alket: after installing go buddylist > plugins | 23:57 |
| DasEi | np | 23:57 |
| sebsebseb | Ryann_: or you could try and get it working in 10.04, and if so, good luck with that | 23:57 |
| === techp_ is now known as purvesh | ||
| Xenoit | http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/yBFcxY7G - ifconfig and /etc/network/interfaces. I'm not sure if I got the right info out of the cat /etc, though | 23:57 |
| CogitoErgoSam | flan_suse: I remember something similar with my laptop in 9.04 or 9.10, I'm trying to find out what I did to fix it. I think there might have been a setting in gconf-editor | 23:57 |
| Ryann_ | sebsebseb: that's the thing, - I don't know where to start, thus, am unable to even try. | 23:58 |
| flan_suse | CogitoErgoSam, anything will help! | 23:58 |
| sebsebseb | Ryann_: I understand | 23:58 |
| tn90 | how long should i calculate for compiling a kernel on a 2.4Ghz dual core with HT and als cores running? | 23:58 |
| sebsebseb | Ryann_: wireless is also not that easy to configure natively | 23:58 |
| sebsebseb | Ryann_: saying this though, maybe you could use ndiswrapper and the Windows wireless driver instead | 23:58 |
| tn90 | *all | 23:58 |
| zanzibar1982 | I can not delete namaroka | 23:58 |
| zanzibar1982 | :( | 23:58 |
| CogitoErgoSam | Xenoit: Ok so you don't have manual settings interfering, and the system isn't autodetecting. Check http://help.ubuntu.com/9.04/serverguide/C/network-configuration.html for info on manually configuring an interface | 23:59 |
| Ryann_ | sebsebseb: ndiswrapper? | 23:59 |
| zanzibar1982 | any support? | 23:59 |
| saxin | When I use Gwibber 2.30.0.1 (Ubuntu 10.04) there is no notifications in the upper-right corner when friends are posting (I use facebook). But if I click the "Like this message"-button the notification is working great. What can the reason for that be? :) | 23:59 |
| Xenoit | Will do, thanks CogitoErgoSam! | 23:59 |
| DasEi | zanzibar1982: sure | 23:59 |
| jeff_ranger1 | mkquist, Thanks for helping, I'm going to return it and get another one that will work with Linux | 23:59 |
