| arand_ | subspider: what so? | 00:01 |
| Loshki | clayg: have you installed medibuntu? I think you need it in hardy for mp3s... | 00:01 |
| zer0x | sebsebseb: anyhow, better get going and drink less :) Cheers for the info | 00:01 |

| drizzt_ | bozza, so? | 00:03 |
| arand_ | subspider: hmm... | 00:03 |
| clayg | Loshki, can I do that without totally reformatting/rebuilding my os? | 00:03 |
| subspider | arand, can you help me | 00:04 |
| jean-pierresainf | have this display problem on a newly installed Ubuntu 9.10 | 00:04 |
| Raydiation | hi does apache2 have problems in 10.04? when i send request to fast i dont get a response :/ | 00:04 |
| jean-pierresainf | I have already explained it here but not sure I was too clear | 00:04 |
| davidov009 | skierpage, is there a way to force a 32 bit install? Even though my system is compatible with a 64 bit, all my default settings in Windows 7 are for 32 bit. I'm assuming there's a reason behind that. | 00:04 |
| Raydiation | too fast* | 00:04 |
| Loshki | clayg: yes, it's basically an extra repository with mp3 enabled versions of things, so it's just like running an update... | 00:04 |
| jean-pierresainf | I want to put a picture | 00:04 |
| Loshki | !medibuntu | clarkb | 00:05 |
| ubottu | clarkb: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org | 00:05 |
| jean-pierresainf | for you guys to see | 00:05 |
| clayg | Loshki, cool how do I get it? | 00:05 |
| jean-pierresainf | how do i do the paste bin stuff already | 00:05 |
| Loshki | clayg: clarkb: oops, that ubottu msg for clarkb was really for clayg... | 00:05 |
| arand_ | subspider: Hmm, I don't think I've ever seen that problem... | 00:06 |
| Loshki | clayg: see ubottu msg a couple of lines up re: medibuntu | 00:06 |
| clayg | Loshki, k thanks | 00:06 |
| subspider | how can i solve these is just restoring grub | 00:06 |
| Loshki | subspider: arand: looks like a disk failure to me... | 00:06 |
| jorn | jean-pierresainf, Try to explain | 00:06 |
| VCoolio | jean-pierresainf: upload eg to here http://imagebin.org/index.php?page=add | 00:06 |
| subspider | Loshki, i can load avery file on disk | 00:07 |
| Bsims | I am needing help tracking down why I can't renable system bell I modprobed pcspkr back in... this worked in Karmic any ideas | 00:07 |
| subspider | Loshki, it's grub | 00:07 |
| arand_ | subspider: If you do "ls -l /usr/lib/grub/i386-pc/915resolution.mod" does it claim the file exists and is well? | 00:07 |
| s3r3n1t7 | How safe (or unsafe) is it to upgrade to Lucid via SSH? | 00:07 |
| subspider | arand, i will try wait | 00:07 |
| Bsims | s3r3n1t7: really safe | 00:08 |
| skierpage | davidov009, I'm not sure how to force a 32-bit install; I assume if you boot from a 386 .iso, it will run. However, Intel Core 2 is definitely 64-bit, and your Windows 32-bit settings seem irrelevant to Linux. | 00:08 |
| Bsims | s3r3n1t7: it will ask you to reboot when done | 00:08 |
| braket | Long story short: I killed the OS on my server, and the interesting part is that it's racked 6 hours north of me | 00:08 |
| davidov009 | Hey, is there a way to force a 32-bit install on a 64-bit system? | 00:08 |
| davidov009 | I want to install Ubuntu to a flashdrive. | 00:08 |
| davidov009 | I just came off from Ubuntu 9.04 on a flash, and it worked fine. | 00:08 |
| davidov009 | I'd like to ensure compatibility with practically any computer by using the 32-bit install. | 00:08 |
| FloodBot1 | davidov009: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 00:08 |
| skierpage | davidov009, if you're worried, I highly recommend creating a LiveCD or live USB and booting into that to see if things work. | 00:08 |
| subspider | arand, yes the file is there | 00:08 |
| Loshki | braket: can't you call someone local? | 00:08 |
| skierpage | davidov009, OK that's a good point. So download the .386 .iso and put that on a Flash drive. | 00:09 |
| Nozy | hi all has some had the end key link to x on evolution ? | 00:09 |
| bozza | drizzt_: so it means ubuntu one does not sync wuth my laptop | 00:09 |
| braket | attempted to remove one too many packages, foolishly rebooted, died on reboot saying that the raid volume could not be found | 00:09 |
| braket | Loshki: yeah I called the colo and they were able to get me into a pxeboot shell | 00:09 |
| Loshki | s3r3n1t7: upgrades can and do go wrong, so I'd downgrade that 'really safe' to 'possibly safe', personally | 00:09 |
| Nozy | hi all has some had the send key link to x on evolution ? | 00:09 |
| braket | also hooked me up with kvm and made the pxeboot shell available through ssh | 00:10 |
| s3r3n1t7 | Bsims: I've done normal upgrades quite some times, and they can go wrong as well. Really safe is rather hard to believe, like Loshki said. | 00:10 |
| s3r3n1t7 | Loshki: compared to a normal upgrade? | 00:10 |
| arand_ | subspider: I'm kind of guessing here, but you could try reinstalling the grub tools in your session "sudo aptitude reinstall grub-pc" | 00:10 |
| Bsims | s3r3n1t7: use the server update tool | 00:10 |
| subspider | arand, i think i'm going to copy the folder i need to a pen and install | 00:10 |
| s3r3n1t7 | Bsims: linkie? | 00:10 |
| drizzt_ | bozza, and how that is related to Ubuntu? ask Ubuntu One support | 00:11 |
| subspider | arand, i will try that | 00:11 |
| braket | however herein lies the funny part which is, I can't debootstrap and perform a linux -> linux install because the filesystem is read-only and I can't mkdir anywhere to mount the disks! | 00:11 |
| Loshki | s3r3n1t7: this group is littered with people who show up here because their 10.04 upgrade went seriously wrong in some way... | 00:11 |

| jean-pierresainf | ok did it | 00:12 |
| braket | and there is no tftp or dhcp server on that subnet so I can't do a traditional pxe network install | 00:12 |
| arand_ | subspider: If grub fails to read, it *might* be that the CD is corrupt in a file or many, that's sometihng you might want to check just to make sure... | 00:12 |
| jean-pierresainf | can you see http://imagebin.org/96765 | 00:12 |
| subspider | arand, it says unable to execute /usr/ bin/aptitude : Imputoutput error | 00:12 |
| Loshki | braket: can you do a mount -o remount,rw ? | 00:12 |
| davidov009 | Ok, how do I create a live-usb? Just un-zip the iso file to the usb or is there more to that? | 00:12 |
| aliciapg | has anyone dealt with security software on ubuntu? does anyone have any suggestions of what software works the best? | 00:12 |

| subspider | arand cus to me it seems that somthing went wrong on these cd even loading live linux it give me some erros | 00:13 |
| jean-pierresainf | but not using this now | 00:13 |
| braket | hooray | 00:14 |
| arand_ | subspider: That sounds like something is wrong with the CD to me, so re-burning it might be in order. When you boot the liveCD there should be an option to chack the CD and you could do that just to make sure before you burn a new. | 00:14 |
| Bsims | I am needing help tracking down why I can't renable system bell I modprobed pcspkr back in... this worked in Karmic any ideas... I NEED my system bell for IRC | 00:14 |
| red2kic | !md5sum | subspider | 00:14 |
| ubottu | subspider: 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 | 00:14 |
| red2kic | subspider: If the md5sum match, the ISO is fine. | 00:14 |
| arand_ | red2kic: subspider: Well, mind that both the md5su of the download, and the checksum of the final iso, needs to match, two steps where errors *may* occur | 00:15 |
| hmw | I want to send a window back, i mean Z-Index wise. I don't know how to do a web search for that. How can I do it? What should I serch for? I am only finding bug reports and stuff | 00:15 |
| jean-pierresainf | did you see the picture ( not sure of this tool imagebin :-() | 00:15 |
| subspider | red2kic but i was thinking that checksum was just to check if the font image is leagal | 00:15 |
| HoudiniMan | Hi guys, im trying to build a FOG server and I'm getting "file not found" for pxelinux.0 | 00:16 |
| jorn | jean-pierresainf, have you changed your default fonts? | 00:16 |
| subspider | ok arand | 00:16 |
| jean-pierresainf | not that I know off how do I check this one ? | 00:16 |
| subspider | just wait a minute | 00:16 |
| edoceo | Anyone know of Samba 3.5.x packages that work on Karmic? | 00:17 |
| s3r3n1t7 | Bsims: oddly enough when i follow those instructions i no longer get the option to update to Lucid. | 00:17 |
| jorn | jean-pierresainf, Go to System -> Preferences -> Appearence | 00:17 |
| jean-pierresainf | ok | 00:17 |
| s3r3n1t7 | Bsims: nvm that previous comment, a typo caused it. | 00:18 |
| JPSman | When I use the 10.04 live CD, I can't get to the internet. Im using a wireless dongle. 192.168.0.1 loads, and ubuntu package server loads but I can't get to google. | 00:18 |
| JPSman | the ubuntu package server connects, sorry | 00:18 |
| clayg | Loshki, the only thing i see mentioned the medibuntu guide is w32codecs , it still wont play mp3 | 00:18 |
| jean-pierresainf | then how do I restore default if I have changed them inadvertantly | 00:18 |
| jorn | jean-pierresainf, The default is "Sans" | 00:19 |
| jean-pierresainf | ok let me check | 00:19 |
| edoceo | How can I find out how Ubuntu does the './configure' so I can manually install from source Samba 3.5 that has identical configuration to the Ubuntu package? | 00:19 |
| Bsims | Can anyone tell me how to reanable my system bell | 00:19 |
| HoudiniMan | JPSMan, try going to System > Administration > Hardware Drivers | 00:19 |
| Bsims | before I freaking kill things | 00:19 |
| s3r3n1t7 | Loshki: sorry for the long delay, MWF2 game had started. The update is running, i'm just going to give it a shot and see what happens, and if all hell breaks lose i've got backups to save me. | 00:19 |
| HoudiniMan | JPSman, See if you have any 3rd party drivers to activate in there | 00:19 |
| jorn | edoceo, You need the "build-essential"-package | 00:19 |
| Loshki | s3r3n1t7: best of luck... | 00:19 |
| JPSman | HoudiniMan, ok, thanks, i'll be doing that now. (I didn't have to before....) | 00:20 |
| edoceo | jorn: righ - but which options does Ubuntu pass to ./configure when they build samba? | 00:20 |
| s3r3n1t7 | Loshki: thank you. I'm sure i'll be fine. and hey, at least i'll learn something from it ;-) | 00:21 |
| jorn | edoceo, I'm not sure what you mean | 00:21 |
| jean-pierresainf | yes default is Sans all the way | 00:21 |
| jean-pierresainf | but still same squares ? :-) | 00:21 |
| lokpest_ | How do I conect to internet from the console, where I dont have access to a iraphic networkmanager? | 00:21 |
| Loshki | edoceo: if you download the source package from the repos, you should be able to see how it's built and do the same for your version | 00:21 |
| edoceo | When you manually build packages from source you have to run './configure --prefix=?? --execprefix --sysconf=??' commands in source tree before building | 00:21 |
| edoceo | To configure | 00:21 |
| arand_ | edoceo: I guess looking at the source for the debian package might give you some hints | 00:21 |
| Bsims | Loshki: use links | 00:21 |
| Schlager | What's a good irc client for 10.04? | 00:21 |
| Bsims | Schlager: Irssi | 00:22 |

| Bsims | use the program links to browse the internet from the commandline | 00:22 |
| SJ_Zero | Howdy. I've got an Acer Aspire One with an Apple Airport (Broadcom wireless N similar to a Dell 1500) card I got off of e-bay. After updating to 10.04, I can't get online with my wireless anymore. In KDE, however, it works fine. Has anyone else had similar problems? | 00:22 |
| leagris | schlaftier, Xchat is what I use since the last 10 years | 00:22 |
| Bsims | OerHeks: can you get your pcspeaker to work? | 00:22 |
| Bsims | I can't get system bell to actually work | 00:22 |
| HoudiniMan | JPSman, Ah, well that's as far as I can help :( | 00:22 |
| jean-pierresainf | what other trick can I try | 00:22 |
| jean-pierresainf | ? | 00:22 |
| theacolyte | How do I get into single user mode? | 00:23 |
| theacolyte | What are the command line variables | 00:23 |
| theacolyte | I just need init 1 | 00:23 |
| ethana3 | Jordan_U: any thoughts? | 00:23 |
| jorn | jean-pierresainf, try run the language-tool and see if all the language-packages are installed | 00:23 |
| HoudiniMan | hey theacolyte, i'm trying my hand at FOG PXE booting on Ubuntu :D | 00:23 |
| arand_ | theacolyte: you can boot with the "single" kernel option. | 00:23 |
| JPSman | For the 10.04 LiveCD, I can connect to 192.168.0.1, I can connect with the repositories, but I can't connect to google.com - someone please help, thank you :OD | 00:23 |
| leagris | theacolyte, tellinit 1 is the stright old school method. You can select dedicated options from the grub boot menu otherwise | 00:24 |
| theacolyte | If I type boot: single | 00:24 |
| HoudiniMan | JPSman, Sounds like a DNS problem | 00:24 |
| JodaZ | the vlc taskbar icon has a ugly nontransparent white background which doesn't fit with the theme | 00:24 |
| theacolyte | Could not find kernel image: single | 00:24 |
| jean-pierresainf | ok will try language-tool | 00:24 |
| Loshki | leagris: does telinit even work on ubuntu? | 00:24 |
| ethana3 | when I use 'e' in grub to edit an entry, how do I save that entry change and boot something else? | 00:24 |
| OerHeks | Bsims /set bell_beeps ON /set beep_msg_level MSGS NOTICES DCC DCCMSGS HILIGH and set bell_beeps = ON http://superuser.com/questions/20707/to-make-irssi-system-beep | 00:24 |
| SJ_Zero | Nobody else has had any problems with wireless working in KDE but not Gnome? | 00:24 |
| HoudiniMan | JPSman, Try doing "ping 4.2.2.2" and "ping google.com" in the terminal, and see what you get | 00:25 |
| leagris | Loshki, did not try it in Lucid yet, I guess this should work at least if you installed the lsb | 00:25 |
| theacolyte | arand_: How do I do it from the boot cd? I'm dying over here | 00:25 |
| Loshki | ethana3: I've never saved such a change from grub. I thought it was temporary only good for that particular bootup... | 00:25 |
| HoudiniMan | Hi guys, im trying to build a FOG server and I'm getting "file not found" for pxelinux.0, any ideas on verifying the pxelinux.0 file is accessible from TFTP? | 00:26 |
| ethana3 | Loshki: I don't even see any effect in the same booting up | 00:26 |
| Bsims | OerHeks: still nada... system bell is not working despite pcspkr being loaded | 00:26 |
| theacolyte | Or can *anyone* tell me how to get into single user mode | 00:26 |
| leagris | Bsims, do you actually have physically a connected and working speaker? | 00:27 |
| Bsims | leagris: yeah the system bell speaker | 00:27 |
| Loshki | ethana3: you have to make the edit, hit return, and then boot it immediately using 'b'... (this is from memory. I use it when I want a single user boot instead of keeping special grub entries) | 00:27 |
| Bsims | and best I can tell its set to max via alsamix, I can't find it in pulseaudio | 00:28 |
| edoceo | arand_: thx for help! Was here: http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/pkg-samba/trunk/samba/debian/README.build | 00:28 |
| Jordan_U | ethana3: Your grub.cfg has exactly the options you specified in /etc/default/grub | 00:28 |
| Bsims | desmsg finds it [ 26.850529] input: PC Speaker as /devices/platform/pcspkr/input/input5 | 00:28 |
| jorn | theacolyte, You have to choose a kernel and put " single " at the end of the line | 00:28 |
| HoudiniMan | Bsims, You sure it's plugged in? :) | 00:28 |
| arand_ | theacolyte: If you are dying, you might want a doctor rather... In the boot menu, go to advanced (F6), other, and type in single on the line ther and hit enter, I think is how it's done. Why you'd want single user on a liveCD I don't know... | 00:28 |
| ethana3 | Jordan_U: ? | 00:28 |
| Bsims | lol HoudiniMan | 00:29 |
| theacolyte | arand_: I've already installed, there's a new feature where if you do something wrong in the boot (like in my case, incorrectly setting an IP address) the boot will hang | 00:29 |
| theacolyte | This is actually on server, but the channel was completely dead | 00:29 |
| theacolyte | I just need to be able to mount my drive | 00:29 |
| pinnerup | Fandekasp: in Ubuntu you can use 'gnome-open'. | 00:29 |
| * ethana3 goes to check out an apartment | 00:30 | |
| pinnerup | Fandekasp: I have it aliased as 'go'. | 00:30 |
| jorn | theacolyte, you can do that from the livecd without "single user mode" | 00:30 |
| Bsims | kde system bell test does nothing | 00:30 |
| theacolyte | jorn: When I boot the CD, it takes me through the install process. | 00:30 |

| jorn | theacolyte, No, click on the "Try Ubuntu without making changes on my system" - option or is it a Server-install-cd? | 00:31 |
| theacolyte | arand_: No, it's ubuntu server 10.04 64 bit | 00:31 |

| hmw | What is the video editing program in Lucid? | 00:33 |

| hmw | sthx | 00:33 |
| theacolyte | screen 6 just says: init:networking main process (685) terminated with status 1 | 00:33 |
| theacolyte | and that's it | 00:33 |
| theacolyte | hung | 00:34 |
| theacolyte | altf1 blinking cursor, altf2 blinking cursor | 00:34 |
| theacolyte | no login | 00:34 |
| arand_ | theacolyte: ah, hrm, well I've not dabbled in servers, so I would say get another CD, ubuntu-desktop or recovery-cd of some kind to at least get a minimal system up... | 00:34 |
| theacolyte | I really just need to edit /etc/network | 00:34 |
| theacolyte | I guess I'll download a desktop cd. | 00:35 |
| jorn | theacolyte, Try to waiting for a few minutes.. it should boot | 00:35 |
| jean-pierresainf | jorn: where do I find language tool | 00:35 |
| Bsims | wierd beep works but irssi isn't beeping nor is vim | 00:35 |
| theacolyte | netdless to say this is absolutely a bug/ridiculous/unecessary | 00:35 |
| theacolyte | and there should be tools for this on the disk | 00:35 |
| theacolyte | the rescue mode that comes on the server disk is just a setup. | 00:35 |
| jorn | jean-pierresainf, System -> Administration -> Languages | 00:35 |
| myrl | hi | 00:35 |
| skierpage | still having network woes after I switchedEthernet to PCI card. There's only one eth0, but NetworkManager has declined to deal with it.. What now? | 00:35 |
| Jordan_U | Bsims: beep accesses the pscpkr directly, vim and irssi just send the beep controll character to the terminal | 00:35 |
| scyx | does anyone know how to reduce the spacing between icons on the indicator applet on lucid? | 00:35 |
| myrl | php cant create a file | 00:35 |
| myrl | why | 00:36 |
| jean-pierresainf | duh :-) | 00:36 |
| Bsims | Jordan_U: Ok thats a start, so any ideas? it worked in karmic | 00:36 |
| theacolyte | Ah, at least I found a mmirror that seems to be talking to me at full 100mbit heh | 00:36 |
| ozfalcon | Anyone know how to add files to nautilus burn:/// by command line? | 00:36 |
| theacolyte | ah well, thanks for the help though :) | 00:37 |
| arand_ | theacolyte: My guess is that ther would be some way to get a shell and some tools going on the server install CD, I'm afraid I have no idea how though... | 00:37 |
| Bsims | theacolyte: youa re just wanting to change network settings from teh commandline? | 00:37 |
| walterj89 | Anyone here know how to get a serial touchscreen working in ubuntu 10.04? | 00:37 |
| theacolyte | Bsims: Not exactly | 00:37 |
| theacolyte | I already did that, I rebooted, and now the boot process errors out | 00:37 |
| theacolyte | I'll fix it with this live cd | 00:37 |
| theacolyte | in about 2 minutes once it finishes | 00:38 |
| Jordan_U | Bsims: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/metacity/+bug/486154 | 00:38 |
| Bsims | Jordan_U: I am running KDE | 00:38 |
| theacolyte | Beginning to realize why I hesitated on using ext4 hehe | 00:38 |
| theacolyte | that's actually the 2nd time I've had this hang on boot | 00:38 |
| theacolyte | the last time I typoed fstab | 00:38 |
| x3464 | I want to put two separate encrypted LVM installs on one drive. Is it best to use the same /boot partition for each install? | 00:38 |
| theacolyte | boot hung on that, too | 00:38 |
| arand_ | theacolyte: I guess it's likely something simple like networking=off in the kernel boot line that might work as well, I don't know what exactly though.. | 00:38 |
| Jordan_U | Bsims: Make sure that konsole is set to either beep itself of pass beeps on to kwin, and then make sure that kwin either plays a beep sound or causes a pcspkr beep | 00:39 |
| skierpage | I can't even get NetworkManager to produce debug output. If I kill it, it restarts before I can run `NetworkManager --no-daemon`. Shit. | 00:39 |
| Bsims | Jordan_U: I am using urxvt | 00:40 |
| theacolyte | uploading the iso to my nfs store | 00:40 |
| theacolyte | (this is esx) | 00:40 |
| jorn | skierpage, " sudo /etc/init.d/network-manager stop " | 00:40 |
| Jordan_U | Bsims: urxvt probably passes the beep on to the window manager | 00:41 |
| muzikjock58 | anyone have a hard time getting sound with java games .....tried to use pogo last night and had no sound in the game. | 00:41 |
| muzikjock58 | ubuntu 9.10 | 00:42 |
| avi93 | hey, i cant install anything from the software center... can someone help please? | 00:42 |
| jorn | avi93, Are your system up to date? | 00:43 |
| avi93 | no | 00:43 |
| avi93 | i still using 9.10 | 00:43 |
| Bsims | Jordan_U: it never used to | 00:43 |
| Bsims | its a old fashioned dumb terminal emulator | 00:44 |
| jorn | avi93, I mean have you installed all the updates (not upgraded your system) | 00:44 |
| theacolyte | weird, I can't mount /dev/sda /mnt | 00:44 |
| theacolyte | is there some magic to mounting my ext4 partition in lvm? | 00:44 |
| === Stephanie is now known as Guest54543 | ||
| lokpest_ | How do i connect to internet from the console where I dont have access to any graphic network manager? | 00:44 |
| skierpage | jorn, thanks! NetworkManager says <info> (eth0): carrier is OFF, then "new ethernet device". | 00:45 |
| skierpage | lokpest_ what did nm-tool print out? | 00:45 |
| avi93 | i cant make updates any more... it's always display errors... | 00:45 |
| jorn | theacolyte, Do you get an error? | 00:45 |
| CaponeBH | Hello guys, how are u all??? :) | 00:45 |
| Guest54543 | what was that program's name that will let me right click the ubuntu iso and burn it from windows? | 00:45 |
| Jordan_U | Bsims: urxvt beeps properly for me in Ubuntu 10.04 | 00:45 |
| theacolyte | jorn: I'm sorry? | 00:46 |
| theacolyte | I can't seem to figure out how to mount this ext4 partition in LVM on the live CD | 00:46 |
| Bsims | heh you is lucky brb trying something clever | 00:46 |
| Anonym0us | sup | 00:46 |
| CaponeBH | Can anyone help me? I googled a lot and couldnt find an answer, how can i change the login screen? i want it to be transparent | 00:46 |
| drizzt_ | CaponeBH, it's currently impossible | 00:46 |
| jorn | theacolyte, When you try to mount, do you get an error message? If so, can you paste it here or in a pastebin? | 00:46 |
| muzikjock58 | does anyone know how to get sound to work in java supported apps or games? ubuntu 9.10? seems to lock out the sound card....was in pogo and no sound in game. | 00:47 |
| Bsims | heh got it | 00:47 |
| avi93 | jorn: yes.... my system up to date | 00:47 |
| theacolyte | jorn: I CAN'T mount it | 00:47 |
| theacolyte | jorn: That's the problem. | 00:47 |
| CaponeBH | drizzt_: Why impossible? In the old versions was possible...and not so hard to do it. | 00:47 |
| Jordan_U | Bsims: What ended up getting it to work? | 00:47 |
| Bsims | I had to remove the stupid stupid pulseaudio-module-x11 | 00:47 |
| skierpage | Guest54543 various programs, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto#Windows | 00:47 |
| walterj89 | ... | 00:48 |
| jorn | avi93, tried rebooting after you updated your system? | 00:48 |
| * Bsims grins and has visions of a electrified barbed wire chainsaw... and the pulseaudio devs | 00:48 | |
| avi93 | no | 00:48 |
| Guest54543 | ty skierpage | 00:48 |
| drizzt_ | CaponeBH, define 'old' | 00:48 |
| jorn | theacolyte, Sorry, but I need more info than that... How did you try to mount it? | 00:48 |
| avi93 | but i will do it right now | 00:48 |
| CaponeBH | drizzt_: till 7.04 if im not wrong. | 00:49 |
| stercor | I just defined a different-colored terminal (command line), based on the Default. How do I get it to come up? | 00:49 |
| jean-pierresainf | well installed the languages I use but after re-logging the squares are still there | 00:49 |
| lokpest_ | Skierpage: did not get reply from NetworkManager | 00:49 |
| stercor | I tried file.xxx -terminal yyy | 00:49 |
| drizzt_ | CaponeBH, new gdm design doesn't allow much customization | 00:49 |
| Jordan_U | drizzt_: CaponeBH: It's not impossible, there's just not yet a GUI for configuring it. | 00:49 |
| theacolyte | jorn: It's ext4 on lvm, I'm using live cd. I just tried mount /dev/sda2 /mnt -t ext4 | 00:49 |
| skierpage | muzikjock58, I can't remember what audio plumbing system Java uses. It might use ALSA direct, so try `aplay -vv /usr/share/sounds/SOMEFILE.wav` in a console. | 00:49 |
| theacolyte | jorn: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock | 00:49 |
| islington | stercor: put the colors in your .bashrc file? | 00:49 |
| islington | anyone in here familiar with xsetwacom command? | 00:50 |
| CaponeBH | drizzt_: i dont know why to change stuffs that dont work so fine as before...or that complicate everything...but well... thanks anyway... | 00:50 |
| muzikjock58 | thanks, skierpage, was just wondering how to get sound to work in pogo...their games use java.....and no sound worked in there | 00:50 |
| drizzt_ | Jordan_U, even font sizes are hardcoded | 00:50 |
| arand | theacolyte: might be that the lvm tools are not on the liveCD, might have to install "lvm2" and then "vgchange -a y" | 00:51 |
| muzikjock58 | had to restart firefox to get my sound to work again in firefox....so it seems java locked out my sound card ..idk. | 00:51 |
| jorn | jean-pierresainf, mount -t /dev/sda2 /someotherfolder = | 00:51 |
| stercor | No. It was a GUI tool. | 00:51 |
| theacolyte | ah I got it | 00:51 |
| theacolyte | lvm pain | 00:51 |
| theacolyte | forgot to activate my lvm | 00:52 |
| arand | theacolyte: And the I think you'll have to mount from /dev/mapper/vg_* instead of from block device | 00:52 |
| skierpage | lokpest_ I'm not sure if NetworkManager is started at desktop login. Try `ps alx | grep -i net` and see if anything's running. You can restart it with maybe `restart network-manager` ?? | 00:52 |
| lokpest_ | Please? Im ircing from my phone | 00:52 |
| jean-pierresainf | hum /dev/sda2 is my boot device | 00:52 |
| theacolyte | arand: yea | 00:52 |
| jean-pierresainf | what does mount -t /dev/sda2 /mefolder = ? | 00:53 |
| muzikjock58 | and im going to be upgrading to lucid. wondering if java has the same problem with no sound in lucid. | 00:53 |
| cTn | could some1 here help me with drm-next please? | 00:53 |
| jean-pierresainf | let me try | 00:53 |
| jorn | jean-pierresainf, Try run " df " to find the right partition | 00:53 |
| theacolyte | ah, it's fixed | 00:53 |
| Dr4g | what's the name of the default window manager on ubuntu ? | 00:53 |
| Dr4g | - | 00:53 |
| theacolyte | man that was really obnoxious | 00:53 |
| theacolyte | not to seem unconstrucvtive (and this is probably the wrong place for it), I can't possibly see how ubuntu is going to suceed in the server world with stuff like this | 00:54 |
| jorn | jean-pierresainf, sorry... my bad.. | 00:54 |
| drizzt_ | Dr4g, metacity | 00:54 |
| theacolyte | I need to see if I can find a place where I can provide some feedback | 00:54 |
| Dr4g | drizzt_, ok is there a menu option to choose others? KDE perhaps ? | 00:54 |
| jorn | jean-pierresainf, I'm tired.. mixing up nicknames here... sorry | 00:54 |
| theacolyte | Thanks for the suggestions though :) | 00:54 |
| drizzt_ | Dr4g, not sure, you can use kwin --replace I believe | 00:55 |
| Dr4g | drizzt_, how to identify the current WM activated. | 00:55 |
| muzikjock58 | what command would i use to open firefox and also see verbose in the terminal? | 00:55 |
| ppannuto | lokpest_: I assume you're trying to configure WiFi from the command line? | 00:55 |
| George_e | Where can I put a Gnome applet .server file that is not root-owned? | 00:55 |
| jorn | jean-pierresainf, have you rebooted your system after you got those strange "letters" ? | 00:55 |
| drizzt_ | Dr4g, it's symlinked somewhere | 00:55 |
| ppannuto | lokpest_: if so, start with some details (most important what encryption?) | 00:55 |
| JPSman | HoudiniMan: ping google.com gets lots of replys. | 00:55 |
| muzikjock58 | maybe i could follow why java has no sound in the terminal if i open it from the terminal. | 00:55 |
| jean-pierresainf | yes I did reboot | 00:56 |
| scyx | does anyone know how to reduce the spacing between icons on the indicator applet on lucid? | 00:56 |
| walterj89 | What is the proper syntax for an xorg.conf file in 10.04? I'm trying to get a touch screen to work and I'm not sure what edits I have/can do | 00:56 |
| ppannuto | lokpest_: First sudo ifconfig wlan0 up (or possibly ath0, or whatever your wireless hardware is) | 00:56 |
| ppannuto | lokpest_: then "iwlist wlan0 scanning" this will show all the wireless networks your card can see, make sure your network is there | 00:56 |
| jean-pierresainf | I should probably reboot again now that I have installed language but the tool say s it is enough to log out and in | 00:56 |
| walterj89 | What is the proper syntax for an xorg.conf file in 10.04? I'm trying to get a touch screen to work and I'm not sure what edits I have/can do Can anyone Point me in the right direction? | 00:56 |
| ppannuto | lokpest_: then tell me some infor about your network | 00:56 |
| jean-pierresainf | I will try to rebbot | 00:57 |
| jean-pierresainf | hold on | 00:57 |
| jean-pierresainf | no pb for mix up | 00:57 |
| jean-pierresainf | appreciate the help | 00:57 |
| jean-pierresainf | :-) | 00:57 |
| jorn | jean-pierresainf, good :) | 00:57 |
| jean-pierresainf | it is rebooting now | 00:58 |
| jean-pierresainf | this box is almost ready for prime time ( my local server) | 00:58 |
| warlie | 10.10? | 00:58 |
| linuxpoet | Can I just dist-upgrade with new apt-sources to get to karmic? | 00:58 |
| drizzt_ | Dr4g, /etc/alternatives/x-window-manager | 00:58 |
| linuxpoet | update-manager -d fails | 00:58 |
| Bsims | linuxpoet: Nope | 00:59 |
| jean-pierresainf | this is the only known issue :-) | 00:59 |
| jean-pierresainf | more later I am sure :-) | 00:59 |
| Bsims | linuxpoet: Update manager never once has worked for me | 00:59 |
| skierpage | muzikjock58: the usual confused thread for 4 years ago about the topic (Java sound), http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-492285.html | 00:59 |
| linuxpoet | so I have to reinstall? | 00:59 |
| Bsims | linuxpoet: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading use the server upgrade | 00:59 |
| muzikjock58 | anyone know commands to open firefox and get verbose output from the terminal ? | 00:59 |
| Bsims | linuxpoet: sudo do-release-upgrade | 00:59 |
| linuxpoet | ahhh | 01:00 |
| linuxpoet | ok that will work | 01:00 |
| muzikjock58 | ahhh. thanks skierpage | 01:00 |
| lokpest_ | ppanuto: I just want to internet, it was never that hard in gnome | 01:00 |
| jorn | jean-pierresainf, ;) It's from the "issues" you learn ;) | 01:00 |
| walterj89 | What is the proper syntax for an xorg.conf file in 10.04? I'm trying to get a touch screen to work and I'm not sure what edits I have/can do. doesn't really help there isn't a default file to start with. Can anyone Point me in the right direction? | 01:00 |
| linuxpoet | thanks guys | 01:01 |
| ppannuto | lokpest_: Wired internet? Then: "sudo ifconfig eth0 up" (bring up your card if it wasn't), plug in the cable, sudo dhclient (get an ip address via DHCP), done | 01:01 |
| jean-pierresainf | yes ! then I should be already an expert :-) | 01:01 |
| skierpage | muzikjock58: there's no documented verbose or debug command-line switch for firefox. If in a terminal `firefox` doesn't work, you have to find your firefox directory, maybe try running `run-mozilla.sh` or `firefox.bin` from there. | 01:01 |
| drizzt_ | walterj89, X -configure | 01:01 |
| ppannuto | lokpest_: wireless (without a GUI) is simply more complicated | 01:01 |
| jean-pierresainf | because I got a lot of them | 01:01 |
| warlie | no gui is impossible | 01:01 |
| jean-pierresainf | one nasty one on this box was the onboard usb | 01:01 |
| walterj89 | thx... | 01:01 |
| jean-pierresainf | worked fine with centos | 01:02 |
| Bsims | walterj89: I can send you my xorg.conf | 01:02 |
| jean-pierresainf | but would not boot ubuntu | 01:02 |
| jean-pierresainf | had to upgrade bios | 01:02 |
| muzikjock58 | oh.....wow, thanks skierpage. i used to be able to. saw all debug symbols in the terminal while firefox was open....hmmm | 01:02 |
| Bsims | jean-pierresainf: whats the issue? | 01:02 |
| mxe5 | Is there a shell command I can use or someway of coping/cloning all the files I have on a USB thumb drive to another USB thumb drive to backup the orignal one ? ? | 01:02 |
| saurabh | can multi gesture be made to work on ubuntu. | 01:02 |
| jean-pierresainf | a known issue in bios | 01:02 |
| Bsims | mxe5: yeah rsync it | 01:02 |
| jean-pierresainf | I was way backreved | 01:02 |
| jean-pierresainf | i still do not know why centos was fine with it | 01:03 |
| ppannuto | saurabh: yes, e.g. two-finger scrolling? http://blog.mfabrik.com/2009/10/11/setting-up-multi-touch-scrolling-for-ubuntu-9-10-karmic-koala-linux-on-asus-eee-1005ha-netbook/ | 01:03 |
| Bsims | rsync /media/disk-1 /media/disk-2 and there ya go | 01:03 |
| walterj89 | Bsims : that would be great | 01:03 |
| jean-pierresainf | but with persistence I got it fixed | 01:03 |
| skierpage | muzikjock58: I get some output from firefox started from a terminal, but not much. Its Error Console window is typically more relevant. | 01:03 |
| jean-pierresainf | a time sink however | 01:03 |
| muzikjock58 | i agree, skierpage. | 01:04 |
| Bsims | walterj89: dcc sent | 01:04 |
| jean-pierresainf | info is very difficult to come by | 01:04 |
| squiddy | hi, anyone managed to integrate flashgot and prozilla ? how ? | 01:04 |
| jean-pierresainf | by board manufaturer | 01:04 |
| subspider | arand, are you there | 01:04 |
| jorn | jean-pierresainf, they probably baked in some sort of workaround for the biosissue | 01:04 |
| mxe5 | Bsims; Ok - will do a google search for details on how to do that - Thanks a bunch..... | 01:04 |
| jean-pierresainf | yes | 01:04 |
| arand | subspider: yup | 01:04 |
| subspider | arand, yes the problem was on the cd | 01:04 |
| walterj89 | crap not to cunfigure this to accept files.... | 01:04 |
| jean-pierresainf | probably | 01:04 |
| walterj89 | now* | 01:04 |
| subspider | arand i don't have my problem solved | 01:04 |
| jean-pierresainf | kept is pretty secret though :-) | 01:04 |
| skierpage | ppannuto: I'm having network problems too! `sudo ifconfig eth0 up` worked, but NetworkManager is still declining to manage eth0, I dunno how to make it. | 01:04 |
| lokpest_ | ppanuto: well, all those commands you wrote are out of my phones shitty irc client cache | 01:05 |
| saurabh | ppannuto: I was talking about feauterus like pinch to zoom | 01:05 |
| Bsims | walterj89: heh I can send you my old one from when you had to tell it you had a scroll wheel | 01:05 |
| subspider | arand, i made these https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2#Reinstalling%20from%20LiveCD | 01:05 |
| muzikjock58 | do you know how well lucid netbook remix fairs on an acer one aspire? i current ly have jaunty on there, but it will become unsupported in october...or is there a write up in the forums on it? | 01:05 |
| ppannuto | lokpest_: wired or wireless? You need to answer that question first | 01:05 |
| subspider | arand, but now i just have a cli telling grub> | 01:05 |
| lokpest_ | Wireless | 01:06 |
| ppannuto | skierpage: NetworkManager is black magic; I can get you online, but I can't fix NM ;) | 01:06 |
| Bsims | walterj89: worst case do this | 01:06 |
| Bsims | walterj89: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg | 01:06 |
| jorn | jean-pierresainf, not everything is going upstream unfortunately | 01:06 |
| ppannuto | lokpest_: start with sudo ifconfig wlan0 up and sudo iwlist wlan0 scanning | 01:06 |
| skierpage | ppannuto: it's strange that `sudo ethtool eth0` says "No data avilable" (Linksys card, tulip driver). | 01:06 |
| jean-pierresainf | yes very true | 01:06 |
| JPSman | How can I "safemode" 9.04 - my graphics setup is broken and it wont get to a login screen | 01:07 |
| ppannuto | make sure you can "see" your network with that scan command | 01:07 |
| subspider | arand, what was the comand to reeintall it was sudo aptitude sometihng can you tell me the cmd again | 01:07 |
| jean-pierresainf | well after reboot the squares are still there | 01:07 |
| JPSman | if not, where are the firefox bookmarks located? | 01:07 |
| muzikjock58 | i used karmic netbook remix, but the wireless on my acer one was sporatic...was wondering if there was any improvement in lucid | 01:07 |
| cTn | anyone experienced with drm-next ? | 01:07 |
| bastidrazor | JPSman: ~/.mozilla/ | 01:07 |
| jean-pierresainf | I need a strong drink .... of milk be right back :-) | 01:07 |
| arand_ | subspider: Hmm, I wold guess that it didn't link the grub files correctly, did you mount the ubuntu partition as in the guide? | 01:07 |
| walterj89 | hard to keep up with this | 01:07 |
| ppannuto | skierpage: that is strange... particularly for a wired card; you probably have something pretty esoteric? I assume you've installed any prioprietary drivers ubuntu could find? | 01:08 |
| Agapito | quien habla español? | 01:08 |
| subspider | yes arand | 01:08 |
| Bsims | walterj89: heh I've been running it for a decade now... always more to discover | 01:08 |
| arand_ | subspider: Reinstalling grub is most likely not necessary when we know the grub tools were bad an now they should be fine on the new CD | 01:08 |
| subspider | Agapito, yo ablo | 01:08 |
| skierpage | ppannuto: ding ding, `sudo dhclient` gave me the intarWubTubes! ;-) I have no idea why NetworkManager declines to get involved, I think something must be holding on to old info from my old eth0. | 01:08 |
| Agapito | subspider ok | 01:08 |
| arand_ | subspider: reinstalling the grub tools I meant | 01:08 |

| jorn | jean-pierresainf, How is your server set up? Is it a ubuntu.-server installation with the ubuntu-desktop package added later, or is it a ubuntu-desktop install with "server-services" installed afterwards? | 01:10 |
| ppannuto | skierpage: once NM fails once, it refuses to try again until you force it to (simply by clicking on the "Wired Network" entry again); had you tried this? | 01:10 |
| arand_ | subspider: Yea, kindof, I think the core.img is rebuilt, and of course the mbr needs to be linked to it correctly. | 01:10 |

| Agapito | red2kic ahi nadie contesta | 01:11 |
| JPSman | I dont know if i want to install it if I am getting %70 paket loss on the live CD | 01:11 |
| jean-pierresainf | no it is a Live CD install + LVM tricks ( as live cd does not provide for LVM install) | 01:11 |
| arand_ | subspider: and the config file needs rewriting... etc. | 01:11 |
| wick94 | hey guys, i have an idea for a feature tht i want to share for ubuntu 10.10 | 01:11 |
| JPSman | wink94, this isn't the place | 01:11 |
| jean-pierresainf | this was a little painful to do but found info on net | 01:11 |
| wick94 | JPSman where should i go? | 01:11 |
| bastidrazor | wick94: chat up the guys in #ubuntu-dev and #ubuntu+1 | 01:11 |
| === ogen is now known as tripelb | ||
| wick94 | thnx | 01:12 |
| jean-pierresainf | most of it was incomplete but I was able to put the pieces together | 01:12 |
| Jordan_U | wick94: No, do not ask in #ubuntu-dev | 01:12 |
| jean-pierresainf | I am writing a small article to summarize my steps | 01:12 |
| jean-pierresainf | inspired from # howtos | 01:12 |
| EvilC1 | wich is the best music player for ubuntu ? | 01:12 |
| bastidrazor | Jordan_U: i thought that would be the correct channel. | 01:12 |
| EvilC1 | which* | 01:13 |
| jean-pierresainf | I have now a system based on LVM | 01:13 |
| jean-pierresainf | with a desktop install | 01:13 |
| jack-desktop | does anyone here know a lot about hardware and something that would cause my screen to have black squares all over it? | 01:13 |
| bastidrazor | EvilC1: i like banshee but there really is not best .. just opinions | 01:13 |
| bastidrazor | s/not/no | 01:13 |
| red2kic | !player | EvilC1 | 01:13 |

| subspider | ok arand Jordan_U i'm going to try | 01:13 |
| ppannuto | lokpest_: I'll consolidate all of these into one quick post, hopefully your phone client can copy paste (next post) | 01:13 |
| ppannuto | lokpest_: (1) sudo ifconfig wlan0 up (2) sudo iwlist wlan0 scanning -- make sure you see your network (3) sudo iwconfig wlan0 essid YOURNETWORKNAME key YOURNETWORKPASSWORD (5) sudo dhclient | 01:13 |
| muzikjock58 | i used banshee as a replacement for songbird since they decided to dump linux support....banshee works out good for me. | 01:14 |
| bastidrazor | Jordan_U: where should i have directed him? | 01:14 |
| EvilC1 | red2kic: thx | 01:14 |
| JPSman | is 10.04 having wireless problems in general, or is it just the live CD? I am getting %70 packetloss on ping google.com in the live CD | 01:14 |
| JPSman | I dont know if I want to install it if its 10.04 and not just the liveCD, would there be any difference? | 01:14 |
| jean-pierresainf | jack-desktop if your blck squares are in fixed positions you screen is probably shot | 01:14 |
| Jordan_U | bastidrazor: That channel is more concerned with developers working with other developers to solve problmes. Feature requests should be filed as wishlist bugs in launchpad or at http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com | 01:14 |
| jack-desktop | jean-pierresainf, they only happen when something moves on the screen (like me scrolling) | 01:15 |
| ppannuto | JPSman: almost certainly your network / hardware -- check if there aren't better drivers out there for you | 01:15 |
| bastidrazor | Jordan_U: okay, noted. thanks | 01:15 |
| jack-desktop | jean-pierresainf, http://img690.imageshack.us/img690/7318/screenshotvh.png looks something like this | 01:15 |
| Jordan_U | bastidrazor: You're welcome. | 01:15 |
| jean-pierresainf | can you take screen shot and post | 01:15 |
| jean-pierresainf | ok got it | 01:15 |
| jack-desktop | jean-pierresainf, also happens on window borders a lot like this: http://img6.imageshack.us/img6/7078/screenshotxxn.png | 01:16 |
| jack-desktop | jean-pierresainf, i've talked to a guy with the same video card and we use the same driver and he doesn't have this problem | 01:16 |
| jean-pierresainf | um first one is pretty | 01:16 |
| jean-pierresainf | second one pretty ... bad | 01:16 |
| jean-pierresainf | I would surmise video controller | 01:17 |
| jack-desktop | jean-pierresainf, and what do you mean by that? | 01:17 |
| jean-pierresainf | if this guy is local to you may want to swap hardware for a test | 01:17 |
| jack-desktop | jean-pierresainf, he's not =/ | 01:18 |
| jean-pierresainf | or if you have other card handu | 01:18 |
| jean-pierresainf | handy | 01:18 |

| jean-pierresainf | does you video card get very hot | 01:18 |
| jorn | ? | 01:18 |
| jean-pierresainf | and does this happen all the time or after you run for a while | 01:19 |
| jack-desktop | jorn, VGA XFX GX260NADFF GTX260 896M RT | 01:19 |
| jack-desktop | it happens every once in awhile, some pages more than others | 01:19 |
| jack-desktop | like on a certain website in firefox it'll happen every time i scroll | 01:19 |
| jack-desktop | all my hardware information is on http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1467547 | 01:19 |
| jean-pierresainf | would it also happen after the machine been freshly booted ( cold hw) | 01:20 |
| === alema0 is now known as alema0ff | ||
| lokpest_ | ppannuto: fuck this, there is no way I can read and enter all those commands with this shitty irc client on my phone with such small cache. You dont have a web page I can read on instead? | 01:20 |
| jack-desktop | jean-pierresainf, never tried, however i do know that this has NEVER happened in vista | 01:20 |
| jorn | jack-desktop, do you have the Nvidia Propriatary drivers installed? | 01:21 |
| jean-pierresainf | can you still boot vista to check or did you wipe the disk clean | 01:21 |
| jean-pierresainf | ? | 01:21 |
| jean-pierresainf | :-) | 01:21 |
| jack-desktop | jean-pierresainf, i can still run vista and it still runs fine | 01:21 |
| jean-pierresainf | do not blame you if you did :-) | 01:21 |
| jean-pierresainf | ok then hw is out of the equation | 01:22 |
| jack-desktop | jorn, i have whatever driveer ubuntu told me to install under Hardware Driveers | 01:22 |
| wesguin | jack-desktop, try disabling that driver and see what happens | 01:22 |
| jorn | jack-desktop, Try to disable it and reboot? | 01:22 |
| jean-pierresainf | this is a good suggestion ! | 01:23 |
| jack-desktop | im almost positive it will not cause the black squares to happen | 01:23 |
| anao | Hello@all where can i disable Systemmenu of Lucid-Lynx-GDM Login?? to prevent shutdown | 01:23 |
| jack-desktop | however i did talk to another guy who said he's using the same driver and he said it doesnt happen to him | 01:23 |
| jean-pierresainf | well then you have your culprit in hand | 01:23 |
| jack-desktop | same card too | 01:23 |
| wesguin | jack-desktop, then it's a buggy driver or bad install of the driver most likely | 01:23 |
| jean-pierresainf | the driver is fleaky | 01:23 |
| jack-desktop | wesguin, ive reinstalled ubuntu like 3-4 times and it's happened everytime | 01:23 |
| jean-pierresainf | well I do not think you need to reinstall everything | 01:24 |
| wesguin | jack-desktop, still you should verify if it's the driver first.. one step at a time | 01:24 |
| jean-pierresainf | just the offending pieces | 01:24 |
| jorn | jack-desktop, which one of the three Nvidia-driver options is enabled under "Hardware drivers" ? | 01:24 |
| jack-desktop | jean-pierresainf, i just did it because it was a fresh install anyways | 01:24 |
| jack-desktop | jorn, i only see 1 option | 01:24 |
| jean-pierresainf | ok no pb then | 01:24 |
| gogeta | jack-desktop: they usae a new nevu driver in lucid maybe thats why your having a issue | 01:25 |
| gogeta | jack-desktop: once you install nividas driver you should be ok | 01:25 |
| jack-desktop | jorn, it also says NVIDIA accelerated graphics driveer (version current) [Recommended] | 01:25 |
| jack-desktop | gogeta, it happened in 9.10 too | 01:25 |
| jorn | jack-desktop, version 197 ? | 01:25 |
| gogeta | jack-desktop: how you fix it | 01:25 |
| rick_ | does anyone know how to get the cpu scaling frequency monitor to default to "ondeamnd" instead of "performance" on bootup? | 01:25 |
| jorn | gogeta, Its with the Nvidia-driver he get problems | 01:26 |
| jack-desktop | jorn, 195.36.15 says the nvidia server settings | 01:26 |
| BluesKaj | jack-desktop, so are you using the current version recommended driver ? | 01:26 |
| jack-desktop | gogeta, how did i fix that? ive never fixed this. | 01:26 |
| === Claudinux_ is now known as Claudinux | ||
| jack-desktop | BluesKaj, yes. | 01:26 |
| gogeta | jorn: then stick to nevu | 01:26 |
| gogeta | jorn: it was 3d acell now | 01:26 |
| jack-desktop | i sort of really want compiz lol | 01:26 |
| bastidrazor | rick_: set it with cpufreq-selector -g ondemand .. not sure when it actually sets that during the boot process | 01:26 |
| jorn | gogeta, I guess he wants compiz ;) | 01:27 |
| gogeta | jack-desktop: the new oss drivers in lucid support 3d acell aka compiz | 01:27 |
| jorn | gogeta, they do? | 01:27 |
| gogeta | jorn: yep | 01:27 |
| jack-desktop | gogeta, how do i go about installing those? and i still have another person i know with same driver and same card who doesn't have this problem | 01:27 |
| gogeta | jorn: 3d acel cuda all the goddies | 01:27 |
| gogeta | jack-desktop: there out of the box | 01:28 |
| jorn | jack-desktop, just disable the nvidia driver in "hardware drivers" | 01:28 |
| bluebaron | UGH ... can anyone tell me how to install php5.2???????? | 01:28 |
| rick_ | bastidrazor: thanks, i'll throw that into startup programs and reboot to see if that works | 01:28 |
| jack-desktop | jorn, gogeta, when i try to enable compiz it tells me to enable the driver though | 01:28 |
| bastidrazor | rick_: wait.. | 01:28 |
| rick_ | ye? | 01:28 |
| gogeta | jack-desktop: maybe your cards to new for nevu 3d then | 01:28 |

| bastidrazor | the bot is slow :\ | 01:29 |
| gogeta | jack-desktop: so what happons after you go nivida drivers | 01:29 |
| rick_ | thanks anyways bastidrazor | 01:30 |
| jack-desktop | what do you mean "go nvidia drivers" | 01:30 |
| cTn | anyone with some experience with drm-next kernels ? | 01:30 |
| bastidrazor | rick_: /etc/rc.local is the proper place to put it.. | 01:30 |

| jorn | gogeta, he gets some serious issues : http://img6.imageshack.us/img6/7078/screenshotxxn.png | 01:31 |
| jack-desktop | gogeta, what do you mean by "nvidia drivers"? the drivers in the hardware drivers window? | 01:31 |
| skierpage | The moral is, if you're not a f***ing uber-geek, it's easier to buy a new computer rather than swap a network card :-( | 01:31 |

| jack-desktop | gogeta, jorn could it be that im using dual monitors at all? | 01:33 |

| rick_ | bastidrazor: is this path correct for linux? I'm still learning and used to dos paths /usr/bin/cpufreq-selector -g ondemand | 01:34 |

| mxe5 | Typos_King: I heard the biggest problem you can have if there was still some reading/or/writing of files on the drive when you pull it out - could cause file damage possibly. | 01:37 |
| jack-desktop | gogeta, i just hit 'remove' in the hardware driver window, do i have to restart to stop running the driver? | 01:37 |
| gogeta | jack-desktop: that turns off compiz | 01:37 |
| jack-desktop | brb, restarting | 01:37 |
| gogeta | jack-desktop: reenable it | 01:37 |

| jack-desktop | ok gogeta you want me to try and disable compiz with the driver enabled and see if it bugs up? | 01:38 |
| drizzt_ | does sed multilines? | 01:38 |
| gogeta | jack-desktop: i think your issue is with compiz not the nivida driver | 01:39 |
| gogeta | jack-desktop: yes | 01:39 |
| jorn | jack-desktop, I agree with gogeta | 01:39 |
| jack-desktop | gogeta, so right now, i have the driver off and no compiz (obviously) and it doesn't error | 01:39 |
| creat0r | drizzt_: join #sed | 01:39 |
| gogeta | jack-desktop: if you havent restarted the drivers still on | 01:39 |
| arand | drizzt_: sed, awk, perl, pick and choose, sed is meant for line-by-line, but does multi with some tweaking, if you prefer it. | 01:39 |
| jack-desktop | gogeta, i restarted | 01:39 |
| onetinsoldier | creat0r: you can see how much space it uses with 'apt-cache show <package_name>' | 01:40 |
| gogeta | jack-desktop: well turn the driver back on turn off compiz after | 01:40 |
| onetinsoldier | creat0r: there'a a line labeled 'Installed-Size:' | 01:40 |
| gogeta | jack-desktop: if it stopes glitching we found the problem | 01:40 |
| jack-desktop | gogeta, brb restarting | 01:40 |
| gogeta | jack-desktop: then file a bug with compiz | 01:40 |
| creat0r | onetinsoldier: df doesnt work? | 01:41 |
| LuisJa | knetwork Manager suddenly stopped working in my Kubuntu laptop. I give thanks I have 2 laptops... I cannot connect not even to wired or wireless. Whats this bug? I need urgent help please | 01:41 |
| onetinsoldier | creat0r: for a .deb package? you could see how big it is before installing i guess. but the 'Installed-Size' will be different | 01:42 |
| Typos_King | LuisJa: my advice for now will be,install network-manager-gnome :), knetworkmanager isn't that great, one of the few apps that aren't as good in kde4 | 01:42 |
| jack-desktop | gogeta, so putting it to 'None' completely disables compiz? | 01:42 |
| gogeta | jack-desktop: yes | 01:42 |

| jack-desktop | gogeta, that program doesnt even mess up with compiz installed | 01:44 |
| bastidrazor | coachj: yes | 01:44 |
| jack-desktop | gogeta, running* | 01:44 |
| red2kic | [Screamo]: Make a final /important/ backup then "do-release-upgrade -d" -- Not too hard. :) | 01:44 |
| gogeta | jack-desktop: then it was a compiz issue | 01:45 |
| jack-desktop | gogeta, actually it just did, nevermind | 01:45 |
| jack-desktop | gogeta, i get a higher frame rate though i think | 01:45 |
| creat0r | onetinsoldier: ok gona try | 01:45 |
| coachj | you remember me? we were discussing art work in rythumbox | 01:45 |
| Typos_King | trollboy: upgrade with a backup :), but then again, that advice is good for any 'upgrade' really :) | 01:45 |
| onetinsoldier | creat0r: ok, cool | 01:45 |
| gogeta | jack-desktop: yea compiz not using the gpu = higher freamrates | 01:45 |
| [Screamo] | red2kic, in order to upgrade, id have to wipe this harddrive and reinstall the new one, i really dont want to, i dont have enough space to back anything up | 01:45 |
| LuisJa | Typos_King: I cant install anything dude... I dont have internet in the computer, not matter how much times I reboot, knetwork manager is "blocked", please people I need help | 01:45 |
| jack-desktop | gogeta, with glxgears running it does get black spots everywhere (same bug) | 01:45 |
| jack-desktop | even in firefox | 01:46 |
| jack-desktop | so most likely a 3d issue now? | 01:46 |
| gogeta | jack-desktop: then yes driver problem | 01:46 |
| [Screamo] | I am pretty sure its a hardware issue | 01:46 |
| Typos_King | LuisJa: what about on the other computer that has access? can you? | 01:46 |
| jack-desktop | gogeta, anything else i can try... ? | 01:46 |

| coachj | bastidrazor: we were talking about art in rythumbox, remember? | 01:47 |
| gogeta | jack-desktop: the only way to test for hardware vs driver bug is use it on a windows box | 01:47 |
| Typos_King | LuisJa: download the .deb installation files on the machine with access, copy them over with say, a usb stick to the one without access, and install :) | 01:47 |
| [Screamo] | jorn nope, nothing like that | 01:47 |
| jack-desktop | gogeta, windows works fine... | 01:47 |
| bastidrazor | coachj: yes, did you find a fix for the failure of rhythmbox not grabbing cover art? | 01:47 |
| gogeta | jack-desktop: if you get that oddness in windows then you have a defectiv card | 01:47 |

| gogeta | jack-desktop: mesa is softwhere renderd 3d | 01:50 |
| asus2 | when I install Ubuntu it asks me to make partition for swap space. Is that necessary? | 01:51 |
| footballer | so any one could help with grub2 sequnce | 01:51 |
| jack-desktop | gogeta, with out the 'hardware drivers' recommended driver, glx gears has crappy (very crappy) frame rate | 01:51 |

| gogeta | jack-desktop: and he the issue is | 01:53 |
| [Screamo] | its not really up to me | 01:53 |
| gogeta | jack-desktop: it effects older drivers | 01:53 |

| tripelb | <onetinsoldier> tripelb: ctrl+l worked for me :: I went into the filebrowser, did control-I nothing happened. I give up for now. | 02:10 |
| karsten | [Screamo]: do you have a network / lan and another box you can either log to or lattemt sshing in from? | 02:10 |
| gogeta | jorn: how he doin | 02:10 |
| myrl | ok | 02:10 |
| david-w | any ops about | 02:10 |
| Dr_Willis | david-w: they are all over the place. | 02:10 |
| onetinsoldier | tripelb: what did you try? CTRL+I? it's... CTRL+L | 02:10 |
| myrl | dr_willis what are the apache2 directories? /var/www ? | 02:11 |
| karsten | [Screamo]: If possible: set up a networked logserver, direct your sysklogd to it, and install the netconsole kernel module (this logs kernel panics over the net to the designated host). | 02:11 |
| david-w | we had a report at #freenode about a bot | 02:11 |
| skierpage | heh, it gets better/worse: my built-in Ethernet chip was probably fine throughout. If there's a problem going into standby, ^%$#@! NetworkManager sets its state to NetworkingEnabled=false, and it stays that way on reboot. | 02:11 |
| Dr_Willis | myrl: i would have to point you to the apache docs. and Yes I think it is /var/www/XXXXX by default | 02:11 |
| Jordan_U | moes: That's not even a valid URL | 02:11 |
| ethana3 | I think I'll consider a fresh oem install onto this hard drive using my fast laptop and an IDE > USB adapter.. | 02:11 |
| Filled-Void | Is the use of the shutdown (terminal) command the best way to shutdown the system after a 1 hr delay ? | 02:11 |
| karsten | [Screamo]: http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/linux-netconsole-log-management-tutorial.html | 02:11 |
| ethana3 | but I'll still have to figure out how to get a gui | 02:11 |
| gogeta | david-w: yea that ubuntu bot is pure eveil man | 02:11 |
| gogeta | lol | 02:11 |
| skierpage | and (at least in Kubuntu) there's no ^%$#@! GUI to re-enable NetworkManager. Complete f***up. | 02:11 |
| moes | Jordan_U, bad typing | 02:12 |
| david-w | what is it doing | 02:12 |
| myrl | dr_willis thanks. do you think it includes /var/www/folder/folder ? | 02:12 |
| karsten | [Screamo]: generally, random lock-ups are either hardware or kernel driver issues. | 02:12 |
| asus2 | Jordan_U: http://codepad.org/dY5YqhKT | 02:12 |
| gogeta | david-w: lol | 02:12 |
| Dr_Willis | myrl: no idea. I dont do PHP at all. | 02:12 |
| karsten | skierpage: Sure there is: xterm ;-) | 02:12 |
| myrl | dr_willis oh ok | 02:12 |
| myrl | dr_willis :) | 02:12 |
| jorn | gogeta, | 02:12 |
| Dr_Willis | Hmm. Kubuntu had a KDE version of the network manager applet - last i tried it. | 02:12 |
| gogeta | jorn: he left wonder where he whent | 02:13 |
| gogeta | jack-desktop: ah your back | 02:13 |
| skierpage | karsten: but what command? You can restart NetworkManager and run nm-tool forever and it'll stay disabled, with no clue how to re-enable. Utter crap non-usability. | 02:13 |
| jorn | gogeta : he had to kill his X-session for some reason | 02:13 |
| gogeta | jack-desktop: had to let the dogs out | 02:13 |
| david-w | who is that bot LaFonte | 02:13 |
| Jordan_U | asus2: The syntax is "sudo mount -t vfat /dev/sda4 /mnt" but if it were really a fat filesystem the kernel would have autodetect it. Since there doesn't seem to be a valid filesystem on that partition it's probably safe to remove it | 02:13 |
| [Screamo] | karsten, the only other comp i have is my sisters windows xp comp =/ | 02:14 |
| karsten | skierpage: I was being trite. Don't know, honestly. | 02:14 |
| [Screamo] | (wich she wont let me install anything on it | 02:14 |
| karsten | [Screamo]: Burn a knoppix disk and boot it with that. | 02:14 |
| TuGa | ok ok you all cannot speak at the same time abooout my SAS hd install, one at a time please! :) | 02:14 |
| Dr_Willis | asus2: you are trying to alter a machine that has windows 7 on it? | 02:14 |
| behappy | FSCK can restore and repair corrupted file system ? | 02:14 |
| karsten | [Screamo]: You can turn it into a temporary Linux box, enable netlogging, and see if you can't debug the problem. | 02:14 |
| sirninja | My volume control isn't working correctly, it gets muted at around the 25% mark | 02:14 |
| Dr_Willis | TuGa: i doubt if many of us even knwo what a 'SAS HD' even is. | 02:14 |
| asus2 | Dr_Willis: yes it has win 7 on it | 02:14 |
| karsten | [Screamo]: ... or you can buy a cheap POS for $20-$50 for diagnostic purposes. | 02:15 |
| karsten | [Screamo]: minimal used system, natch. | 02:15 |
| Dr_Willis | asus2: window7 can use/make a special boot partition. Depending on how it got installed. | 02:15 |
| david-w | I am dealing with it | 02:15 |
| [Screamo] | karsten lol, she gets mad at me if i so much as add a chrome extension =/ | 02:15 |
| skierpage | karsten, no worries. The sad thing is, now that I've figured this out, on which of the 50 linux/ubuntu help sites should I write it down for future generations? | 02:15 |
| Dr_Willis | asus2: or it could be a system 'recovery' partition to reinstall windows. | 02:15 |
| jorn | [Screamo], When your computer freezes, is CTRL+ALT+F1 working? | 02:15 |
| [Screamo] | karsten Dont have the money, i dont even have a comp right now, mine fried :( | 02:15 |
| karsten | behappy: fsck will restore inode integirty. Serious data loss may still occur. | 02:15 |
| [Screamo] | jorn, didnt think to do it | 02:15 |
| asus2 | The partition is listed as "hidden" in Palimpset disk utility | 02:16 |
| karsten | skierpage: Feh, don't get me started. Probably whatever documentation / support wiki is linked from the main Ubuntu site. | 02:16 |
| Drakeson | How can I revert the annoying new shortcut key Super+M, back to what it was doing before? | 02:16 |
| TuGa | Dr_Willis, :) | 02:16 |
| Dr_Willis | asus2: You Might want to leave it alone then.. or at least be sure you got the proper disks/tools to restore windows if needed. | 02:16 |
| jorn | [Screamo], If it does, it's only your X-session that freezes... | 02:16 |
| [Screamo] | well | 02:16 |
| karsten | [Screamo]: booting knoppix changes nothing on her system (now, reformatting the HD while you're running Knoppix is another story). | 02:16 |
| [Screamo] | come to think of it | 02:16 |
| david-w | FloodBot1 ping | 02:17 |
| Dr_Willis | Drakeson: what is it now? and what was it befor? | 02:17 |
| karsten | [Screamo]: .... and if you don't have any resources, well, that's sort of your problem. | 02:17 |
| [Screamo] | karsten, point is, she things every little thing i do will mess up her comp | 02:17 |
| [Screamo] | *thinks | 02:17 |
| Drakeson | Dr_Willis: press Super+M and see? | 02:17 |
| baddy | hey guys, since I (freshly) installed Lucid I can't adjust the screen brightness on my laptop anymore. | 02:17 |
| [Screamo] | and yeah i know its my problem | 02:17 |
| jorn | [Screamo], and your should be able to log in and do a " sudo service gdm restart " to restart your X-session | 02:17 |
| Dr_Willis | Drakeson: and if i am on KDE.. or on icewm..or dont have compiz going.. | 02:17 |
| karsten | [Screamo]: Look, she's your sister, not your wife. It's not like she can divorce yu or something ;-) | 02:17 |
| ubuntitude | hey guys: i'm attempting to run the Steam installer application on my Lucid computer with Wine, but when i execute Steam.exe, it gives Steam.exe (main exception): The registry is in use by another process, timeout expired. It ran once the first time i executed it, but now it won't work. Any suggestions? | 02:17 |
| mophead | Is there any repository of the myriad Flash problems in firefox under ubuntu? Every time I update the distro I have to shave yak to make flash work. i'm using lucid now. | 02:17 |
| Drakeson | Dr_Willis: then you probably don't feel my pain. | 02:17 |
| [Screamo] | karsten, but since my comp is fried, the only one i can use is hers | 02:17 |
| karsten | [Screamo]: disconnect the HD cable. Keeps you from making any persistent changes. | 02:18 |
| jorn | karsten : lol :D | 02:18 |
| karsten | [Screamo]: Yeah,I hear you. Trying ot be funny. | 02:18 |
| Dr_Willis | Drakeson: i asked what it did.. guess you go figure it out... | 02:18 |
| tripelb | onetinsoldier - I did a bruteforce look and "somehow" in my crashes, I've lost a file I really wanted to save. All the suggestions here from the past week, not counting today. GNASH, feel helpless. | 02:18 |
| Filled-Void | Would sudo shutdown 7:45 be the correct command to use to shutdown my pc at 7:45 ? (setting it up to shutdown after 1 hr) | 02:18 |
| [Screamo] | karsten, the other day her dvd drive died, and she thought if i opened her comp up to replace it i would mess it up | 02:19 |
| tripelb | onetinsoldier, is there a way I can see the "hidden" ie backup files in my search? | 02:19 |
| karsten | [Screamo]: Maybe you don't need to upgrade your computer ... | 02:19 |
| onetinsoldier | tripelb: oh, roger. sorry to hear that | 02:19 |
| karsten | [Screamo]: ... upgrade your sister instead. | 02:19 |
| cole | what the heck is this? | 02:19 |
| jorn | [Screamo], Next time it freezes - try CTRL+ALT+F1 - then login and type : " sudo service gdm restart " | 02:19 |
| tripelb | onetinsoldier, just a little gedit file. it will be ok. | 02:19 |
| asus2 | Jordan_U: http://codepad.org/6siAaTIz the code you gave me doesnt work? Palimpset states it is Hidden W95 FAT32 (0x1b) | 02:20 |

| onetinsoldier | tripelb: don't think i know how to help you find what you're looking for. but you can keep asking the channel. someone might know | 02:20 |
| Jordan_U | asus2: Yes, because there is no valid filesystem on that partition | 02:20 |

| jorn | [Screamo], Do you read what i write to you? ;) | 02:21 |
| baddy | Do you guys think the support for the ATI graphics cards (no matter if proprietary or open drivers) will improve soon - Since I installed Lucid my laptop has a loooot of issues with graphics | 02:21 |
| asus2 | Jordan_U: then how do I view the contents as you suggested? | 02:21 |
| tripelb | in terminal: using ls: I want to list any file that starts with var | 02:21 |
| [Screamo] | jorn yea ill try that | 02:21 |
| Jordan_U | asus2: You can't, it looks like there are no valid contents | 02:21 |
| Dr_Willis | baddy: its hard to tell with ati. One of the many reasons i avoid ati. | 02:21 |
| karsten | tripelb: ls var* | 02:21 |
| Jordan_U | asus2: Which is why I think it's safe to delete | 02:21 |
| baddy | I know | 02:21 |
| baddy | to late i guess | 02:22 |
| karsten | tripelb: man 7 glob | 02:22 |
| mophead | Is there any repository of the myriad Flash problems in firefox under ubuntu? Every time I update the distro I have to shave yak to make flash work. i'm using lucid now. | 02:22 |
| jorn | [Screamo], If that works, it is probably some program that is f**ing your X-session up... | 02:23 |
| baddy | As long as I'm not able to s*** money I'll have to try to get along with what I have | 02:23 |

| ChogyDan | !lamp | myrl | 02:25 |
| ubottu | myrl: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+) | 02:25 |
| tripelb | onetinsoldier, if I only knew the path. see what I just typed to karsten | 02:25 |
| onetinsoldier | tripelb: oh, i guess karsten got you help. good deal :-) | 02:25 |

| Jordan_U | moes: The author is a little confused about some things but his guide should work. Note that you can use any jpeg or png file, not need to use low resolution / color depth tga files. | 02:26 |
| ChogyDan | myrl: might as well use that method, since it is more tested I think. There are packages that get each program to work together I think | 02:26 |
| baddy | is there a manual way how to adjust screen brightness (e.g. with a terminal command) | 02:26 |
| jorn | [Screamo], what are you using as "routing-software" ? | 02:26 |

| [Screamo] | jorn the gnome network manager | 02:26 |
| karsten | tripelb: If the file's existed for a day: 'locate var' is faster than fine (it uses a database updated daily). | 02:26 |

| ChogyDan | myrl: 777? | 02:27 |
| karsten | asus2: 'default NN' where NN is the number of the boot stanza corresponding to Windows. | 02:28 |
| myrl | chogydan 777 means??? | 02:28 |
| skierpage | LuisJa: you can remove /var/lib/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.state and reboot, or try the dbus command in http://osdir.com/ml/debian-bugs-dist/2010-01/msg07864.html | 02:28 |
| Drakeson | Dr_Willis: thanks for the tip. apparently there is a patch for that ... | 02:28 |

| asus2 | where? | 02:28 |
| slide | Is there any way to su to either root or a new user when using sshfs? | 02:29 |

| karsten | asus2: ... but sodon't edit that file | 02:29 |
| karsten | asus2: /etc/default/grub | 02:29 |
| myrl | chogydan ok | 02:29 |
| jorn | [Screamo], ahh... | 02:30 |
| karsten | asus2: 'GRUB_DEFAULT=NN'. Same story. Look at /boot/grub/grub.cfg and count stanzas (or look at the grub menu at boot) to figure which one. | 02:30 |
| karsten | asus2: counting starts at 0, not 1. | 02:30 |

| CogitoErgoSam | asus2: Keep in mind that any time you make changes to /etc/default/grub you need to run "sudo update-grub" so it will generate the new grub.cfg file | 02:32 |

| cruejones | onetinesoldier: yes, and install errors, etc... | 02:34 |
| xorwhy | I have attempted solving this problem by, changing hard drive mode from AHCI to ATA in BIOS, installing using the minimal installation CD, installing using the alternate text mode CD, and installing using the "Install Ubuntu" boot option on the dekstop CD. | 02:35 |
| [Screamo] | jorn, i dont think its network problems | 02:35 |
| onetinsoldier | cruejones: well.. there a way to get a list of packages with aptitude that someone made, i have it saved in a file. you use it to clone a machine. then, there's similar deal with dpkg, you can make a file with the 'dpkg --get-selections' command | 02:36 |

| xorwhy | red2kic, I thought 10.04 was Lucid Lynx final? | 02:37 |
| Jordan_U | asus2: Change the default to "Windows 7 (loader) (on /dev/sda1)" (with quotes) and it doesn't matter what order / number it is | 02:37 |
| cruejones | onetinsoldier: can this be sent in real time to syslog during installation? | 02:38 |
| red2kic | xorwhy: It is. Also, I'm experiencing issues with Lucid installation. Beta2 worked fine for me. | 02:38 |

| jb12 | whens ubuntu replacing windows and when | 02:38 |
| xorwhy | red2kic, if you don't mind, what issues did you experience? | 02:38 |
| xorwhy | red2kic, is the kernel a different version in beta 2? | 02:38 |
| Jordan_U | xorwhy: You could try the alternate install CD, the only problem is that you may run into the same problem when you try to boot into your installed system | 02:38 |

| [Screamo] | antonius, maybe wubi? lol | 02:42 |
| red2kic | cruejones: It is strange. Unable to install Ubuntu on the laptop. (Honestly). Could be one of the borked updated packages such as grub-pc or grub*. I can't really be sure (for my issue). | 02:42 |

| Jordan_U | antonius: If you install Ubuntu normally it should detect and allow you to boot from OSX and XP. It may need some tweaking for OSX though | 02:43 |

| Dr_Willis | dekadent: ive never had any issues with ninjavideo. Worse chould happen i guess it i crashes firefox | 02:48 |
| ^Lem^ | red2kic, just defaults in fstab. i assume something changed in the ubuntu installer, or even in the kernel, with respect to ext4. to me it sounds like it's extra paranoid about writing to disk during package installation (unpacking files stage) | 02:49 |
| cTn | karsten: it would be so easy if that branch could have ppa | 02:49 |
| gogeta | Dr_Willis: a gtx 360 artafacting in linux but not windows and other gtx users no problem like that | 02:49 |

| Dr_Willis | gogeta: No idea on video driver/video playback issues. Theres to many things it can depend on. | 02:49 |
| karsten | cTn: Under Debian (I'm more familiar w/ it) you'd want make-kpkg and a few related packages. See the URLs ubutto just gave you. | 02:50 |
| gogeta | Dr_Willis: having him run 3d mark in windows and see if any aratafacting happons | 02:50 |
| cTn | karsten: yeah, i already downloaded all necesary packages, downloaded the latest ubuntu kernel | 02:50 |
| red2kic | ^Lem^: Check Launchpad for bugs. See if there are something similar to your issue. | 02:50 |

| karsten | cTn: Untar, patch if necessary (the radeon bits), make, make mrproper. | 02:51 |
| karsten | cTn: Are the radeon drivers part of mainstream kernel or from another repo? | 02:51 |
| mah2223 | hi i have access to my /etc/fstab file in livecd but still cannot "mount root filesystem" | 02:51 |

| gogeta | jorn: it relly lookslike hes having a nvram cruppton issue | 02:52 |
| dekadent | Dr_Willis, do you use anti-virus or anything like that? i found people saying it definitely installs malware on google | 02:52 |

| karsten | cTn: ... in which case you should find configuration options for the Radeon drivers when you do 'make menuconfig'. Note too that you can use your existing kenrel configuration (from /boot/config-$(uname -r) ) to bootstrap the configuration process. | 02:53 |

| Zelozelos | to get rid of the mail icon on the indicator panel, dont i just need to apt-get remove indicator-messages? its been a while since ive re-installed, got a new hd yesterday ;) | 03:18 |
| bastid_raZor | STF: unsure how the server handles power management.. you should be able to tell it what to do when the button is pushed.. mine is set to blank the screen. although i have the desktop . | 03:18 |
| CogitoErgoSam | you can just right click and remove it | 03:18 |
| Zelozelos | i want 2 keep the volume | 03:18 |
| STF | bastid_razor: can you give me an idea where i have to look to find out to make it like you? | 03:19 |
| Zelozelos | ive already uninstalled the programs associated with it, and its still there | 03:19 |
| CogitoErgoSam | zelozelos: Might be something in gconf-editor under Apps->Panel, I'm lookin | 03:19 |
| Zelozelos | CogitoErgoSam, i did it befor, i remember apt get removing it, but i cant remember its name | 03:20 |
| trism | Zelozelos: indicator-messages should be all you need to remove (I tested it yesterday, seemed to work) | 03:20 |
| CogitoErgoSam | zelozelos the package is indicator-sound | 03:20 |
| STF | bastid_razor: if i see it right i have no acpi installed. | 03:21 |
| CogitoErgoSam | trism I don't think he wants to remove ALL of them | 03:21 |

| gunther44 | is there a program i can use to pastebin? | 03:21 |
| Jordan_U | !pastebinit | gunther44 | 03:21 |
| ubottu | gunther44: 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 | 03:21 |
| gunther44 | thanks Jordan_U | 03:21 |
| Jordan_U | gunther44: You're welcome | 03:22 |
| mgmuscari | i'm trying to get a cando dual touch screen working on a netbook, and in order to do so i'm playing around with the latest RC kernel - 2.6.34-020634rc5-generic | 03:22 |
| mgmuscari | but the driver that's included in this kernel is somewhat broken | 03:22 |
| gunther44 | i just installed webboard, but guess i'll uninstall it now :) | 03:22 |
| STF | bastid_razor: so if i not found out a way i can put a coin on the button^^ | 03:22 |
| mgmuscari | when i tried to use git to check out the latest kernel source, i get an older version as the most recent branch available | 03:22 |
| footballer | i have grub2 default to ubuntu and i want to change it to default to windows xp for my son | 03:22 |
| gunther44 | Jordan_U: the package descriptionh for pastebinit should be made clearer | 03:22 |
| mgmuscari | so... how can i check out a copy of this kernel version? also, i'd like to just recompile this module rather than the whole kernel... is there a preferred way to do that? | 03:23 |
| gunther44 | Jordan_U: i wasn't sure that was what it did, whereas webboard has a more suitable description | 03:23 |

| [Screamo] | think ive finaly found the problem | 03:26 |
| bastid_raZor | STF: possibly try the button to see if it does hibernate your laptop. | 03:26 |
| STF | bastid_razor: it don't do it, i think i have no acpi installed | 03:26 |

| [Screamo] | if they did, then why would i have gotten it? | 03:37 |

| Random832 | well they don't have a malware for ubuntu - so they fall back on the xp to have something to display | 03:37 |

| jabirali | kzman, http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading#Upgrading%20Using%20the%20Alternate%20CD/DVD | 03:37 |
| jabirali | kzman, I believe you should also be able to upgrade by booting the CD, but I haven't tested that option in years | 03:38 |
| daniel__ | [screamo] onetinsoldier here is the screenshot with the message i get in the terminal | 03:38 |

| RagnarokAngel | Ok I've got a question on upgrading UNR from 9.10 to 10.04 — actually it's more a question of how to correctly get /var/apt/cache/archives to push files onto external media to then be used in the upgrade process. | 03:38 |
| [Screamo] | hey daniel__ i cant read it | 03:39 |

| brummbaer | why not just use synaptic to remove and reinstall nautilus | 03:40 |
| onetinsoldier | daniel__: well something's wrong. nautilus segfaulted. not sure what's wrong though, sorry | 03:40 |
| brummbaer | or install thunar or something | 03:40 |
| [Screamo] | onetinsoldier, it always does that for me, but it normaly opens anyway | 03:40 |
| kzman | jabirali, but it says "...using the Alternate CD", but can i use the live CD for doing that? | 03:40 |
| onetinsoldier | [Screamo]: your nautilus segfaults.. but then opens up anyway? :-/ | 03:41 |
| [Screamo] | wait h/o | 03:41 |
| Gnimsh | hi | 03:41 |
| [Screamo] | nvm | 03:42 |
| [Screamo] | =/ | 03:42 |
| Gnimsh | Problem: when ubuntu 10.04 loads, I do not see a list of names to click and type my password for. Instead I have to hit enter at a login prompt, type my name, and then type my password and hit enter again. How can I change it to display my username? | 03:42 |
| notechis | hi i create ubuntu boot from usb using universal usb creator inside windows and set the boot to usb and nothing happen it still boot to windows | 03:42 |
| Gnimsh | notechis, have you chosen the correct hard drive? | 03:42 |
| Gnimsh | Mine detects all usb keys as a usb hard drive | 03:43 |
| notechis | yeah | 03:43 |
| Gnimsh | so you have to change hard drive disk priority | 03:43 |
| jabirali | kzman, hmm not sure... But if you have the livecd around, it shouldn't take long to test; pop the disk in the drive, and check if you get that popup | 03:43 |
| daniel__ | [Screamo] so you dont know of a solution either? | 03:43 |
| [Screamo] | i finaly found out why ubuntu keeps freezing | 03:43 |
| notechis | gnimsh i already done that nothing happen | 03:43 |
| notechis | it boot to windows | 03:43 |
| onetinsoldier | daniel__: did you install 10.04 clean? or upgrade? | 03:43 |
| [Screamo] | daniel__, try reinstalling nautilus' | 03:43 |
| [Screamo] | fio@fio-desktop:~$ sudo lspci | grep -i vga | 03:43 |

| Gnimsh | notechis, try unetbootin | 03:44 |
| Gnimsh | it worked perfectly for me | 03:44 |
| [Screamo] | ^keeps freezing my comp :( | 03:44 |
| RagnarokAngel | ok simpler question this time. | 03:44 |
| daniel__ | [screamo] it was a clean install, i am a new ubuntu user. Is this how you install nautilus... sudo apt-get install nautilus?? | 03:44 |
| LuisJa | My Kubuntu Laptop displays this when left-clicking network manager: "Network Management Disabled". I heard from an user than this is a kubuntu bug than when you let the laptop hibernate is disables the Network Managing and you have to reinstall, fix for this in any case? | 03:44 |
| RagnarokAngel | can I upgrade the UNR with the alternate CD? | 03:44 |
| jabirali | kzman, I believe when I was offered an option to upgrade existing installation when I installed 6.06 on some machine years ago, so you can try booting the livecd and see what options you are offered | 03:44 |
| notechis | gnimsh done that before using univ usb creator | 03:44 |
| onetinsoldier | daniel__: that won't reinstall it tho | 03:44 |
| neverAFK | lynx crashes randomly. | 03:45 |
| jabirali | kzman, unless you get the popup mentioned in that guide :P | 03:45 |
| lyrae | One of my hard drivers is being mounted as root on startup. is that safe? | 03:45 |
| neverAFK | i have no idea what is causing it. | 03:45 |
| neverAFK | any diagnostic logs I can inspect? | 03:45 |
| onetinsoldier | daniel__: try sudo apt-get install --reinstall nautilus | 03:45 |
| [Screamo] | daniel__, you gonn have to use synaptic | 03:45 |
| [Screamo] | or that^ | 03:46 |
| kzman | jabirali, I'll download it, and i'll try it | 03:46 |
| brummbaer | neverAFK; check your fstab, you can set perms for drive on mount there | 03:46 |
| daniel__ | ok let me try that | 03:46 |
| neverAFK | it dumps X to the boot sequence screen and is unresponsive to kbd.mouse | 03:46 |
| gogeta | lyrae: yea root controle mounts | 03:46 |
| jabirali | kzman, alternatively, you could manually add the CD as a repository for apt-get in System -> Administration -> Software Sources, and do a "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" in a terminal | 03:46 |
| gogeta | lyrae: thats why you have too sudo the command | 03:46 |
| daniel__ | [screamo] onetinsoldier thank you very much it worked | 03:46 |
| JPSman | where can I find the torrent for the desktop iso for 9.10? | 03:46 |
| lyrae | gogeta, i just put it in fstab | 03:46 |
| jabirali | kzman, you don't have the CD lying around? Why don't you just upgrade using the update utility then? | 03:46 |
| neverAFK | rahul_ : that is not applicable. | 03:47 |
| neverAFK | brummbaer, I'm not sure how that applies | 03:47 |
| gogeta | lyrae: having it root mount makes it read only to anyone but root | 03:47 |

| bastid_raZor | rahul__: in synaptic search for linux-image and uninstall the older versions.. be sure to leave your current version installed | 03:50 |
| jabirali | rahul_, you need to edit it as root (sudo ...), be careful so you don't make your system unbootable ;) | 03:51 |
| onetinsoldier | LinuxGuy2009: why not compile the handbrake from source, and use 'checkinstall' to install it | 03:51 |
| jabirali | rahul_, no wait, seems like Ubuntu autogenerates them from files in /etc/grub.d/ | 03:51 |
| bastid_raZor | jabirali: uninstalling the older kernels solves the issue.. no need to manually edit anything | 03:51 |
| jabirali | bastid_raZor, yeah that's true :) | 03:52 |
| onetinsoldier | LinuxGuy2009: if you interested in downloading, and compiling it, i'll try to help | 03:52 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | onetinsoldier: Well there is actually already a PPA on launchpad made by the same guy thats been building them in the past. I guess something changed in gtk or whatever so the interface doesnt work correctly. | 03:52 |
| gogeta | bastid_raZor: not even nessery anymore you can remove old images auto with computer janator | 03:53 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | onetinsoldier: I emailed him about it and thats what he said. | 03:53 |
| Noo | hey I installed exaile on the new ubuntu and and started this dynamic playlist thing by clicking on it, but it doesn't add anything to my library.

| gogeta | rahul_you can remove old images with computer janater as well | 03:53 |
| onetinsoldier | LinuxGuy2009: oh.. roger. don't know if we'd run into that compiling from source or not | 03:53 |
| rahul__ | bastid_raZor: Where is this synaptic search? | 03:53 |
| bastid_raZor | gogeta: i've never used the janitor before. good to know it is even mroe automated now | 03:53 |
| RickyWh1 | can I just stop apache service, and apt-get install cherokee and it just works? | 03:53 |

Any help is appreciated. thanks. | 04:10 |
| gogeta | lord_koala: upgrade | 04:10 |
| gogeta | lord_koala: 8.04 is end of life soon | 04:11 |
| jabirali | n0mad, that is a network pseudo-interface made to communicate locally (provides ip 127.0.0.1 = your own machine). | 04:11 |
| jabirali | n0mad, are there any other entries in the output of that command? | 04:11 |
| test34 | how can I disable transparency everywhere? | 04:11 |
| jabirali | n0mad, eth0, eth1, wlan0, something like that= | 04:11 |
| test34 | (10.04) | 04:11 |
| lord_koala | gogeta: yeah, I know.. I will do that soon.. I got this old wifi card and was trying to work around it. | 04:11 |
| jabirali | test34, gnome/kde? | 04:11 |
| n0mad | jabirali, yes there are other entries | 04:11 |
| gogeta | lord_koala: its probly supported in 10.04 | 04:11 |
| test34 | jabirali, #ubuntu, so gnome | 04:11 |
| gogeta | lord_koala: wifi got alot better sence 8.04 | 04:12 |
| lord_koala | gogeta.. hmm. nice thought actually. this is a very old wi-fi card.. do you think they added new drivers | 04:12 |
| jabirali | test34, aha I didn't realize there was a #kubuntu, lol :P | 04:12 |
| gogeta | lord_koala: yes big time | 04:12 |
| lord_koala | gogeta.. good. I will listen to your advice :).. what was the cli for upgrade? | 04:13 |
| Appl6 | lord_koala: It's hardly all sunshine and roses. Lucid is still pretty beta. | 04:13 |
| gogeta | lord_koala: the new kernel was geard for wwifi support in 9.10 | 04:13 |
| |_ocke | omg this is awesome http://www.techeblog.com/index.php/tech-gadget/super-mario-crossover-game | 04:13 |
| spikeb | lucid, pretty beta? i think not. | 04:13 |
| test34 | jabirali, there might also be a #lubuntu but I havent tried it;) | 04:13 |
| Appl6 | lord_koala: Find the make and model of your wifi card and go check it out to see if lucid actually supports your card. | 04:13 |
| n0mad | jabirali, are you there? | 04:13 |
| lord_koala | appl6.. thanks for the suggestion.. | 04:14 |
| gogeta | lord_koala: 8.04 is lts isnt it so upghgrading from lts to lts shouldent be a problem | 04:14 |
| lord_koala | I will do that first | 04:14 |
| jabirali | n0mad, what network window is it then? How do you open it? | 04:14 |
| gogeta | lord_koala: your update manager should be telling you threw a new update | 04:14 |
| JockMock | hello | 04:14 |

| Appl6 | lord_koala: Try this site to see if your card is supported on any version of Linux: http://linux-wless.passys.nl/ | 04:15 |
| phantom111212 | someone tell me how to install jdownloader | 04:15 |
| JockMock | i have downloaded the latest ubuntu version and i try to install it on my laptop and i always get black screen, even if i try to run it live.. but the older ubuntu works :( what can be wrong | 04:15 |
| test34 | jabirali, I disabled visual effects and it disabled transparency... | 04:15 |
| acerimmer | JockMock: try using the alternate install iso. usually fixes things right up. | 04:16 |
| onetinsoldier | JockMock: what kind of video card do you have? Intel integrated onboard? | 04:16 |
| test34 | transaparency is very annoying | 04:16 |
| jabirali | n0mad, aha, I thought it was one of the dialogs about the network connection. So I assume you've setup an SMB share from your ubuntu machine? | 04:16 |
| JockMock | ok then.. thanks | 04:16 |
| n0mad | jabirali, no I havent. let me do that and see if it works | 04:16 |
| test34 | if I don't want to see what I'm looking at, I will enable transparency | 04:16 |
| jabirali | n0mad, the computers in Network Places are those with available SMB/NFS shares | 04:17 |
| gogeta | lord_koala: my old belcon g+ didnt like 8.04 it works out of the box in lucid | 04:17 |
| jabirali | test34, hehe, I agree :P | 04:17 |
| jabirali | test34, never really used compiz myself either :P | 04:17 |
| jabirali | test34, if you don't like what you see, you should install "blast" | 04:18 |
| lord_koala | appl6 is seems it is working | 04:18 |
| test34 | jabirali, I'll give it a try | 04:18 |
| Appl6 | lord_koala: On the lucid live CD? | 04:18 |
| jabirali | test34, an application that makes permanent holes in graphical applications - no restrictions on what apps you can blast to pieces | 04:18 |
| lord_koala | gogeta I am going to update to lucid now :) but lucid is still beta.. how can I update with apt-get to beta | 04:18 |
| test34 | jabirali, haha | 04:18 |
| gogeta | lord_koala: its not beta its relesed | 04:18 |
| Appl6 | lord_koala: Awesome! Lucky you. And I meant that Lucid has a lot of rough edges, not that it's actually in beta. | 04:19 |
| lord_koala | appl6 What do you mean Lucid Live CD.. should I do CD install? | 04:19 |
| n0mad | ok jabirali thanks for the help. i bet this should fix it. gonna restart X now | 04:19 |
| dante | hi, im a complete newbie in ubuntu.. and im trying to install the driver for my Broadcom HD Decoder.. its a minipcie card... well i downloaded the driver but all i see are different folders under crystalhd/ (with driver/ linux/ firmware/ include/ other folders)how do i install it | 04:19 |
| gogeta | lord_koala: well fresh is always reconded but you should be able to go from lts to lts | 04:19 |
| Appl6 | lord_koala: What gogeta said, except "reconded" -> "recommended" | 04:20 |
| walterj89 | Ok so I have a Linux driver provided my 3M for a touch screen, with no directions. Where do I put the .bin file and how do I use it with a serial touch screen? Help? | 04:20 |

| RickyWh1 | I just installed cherokee web server and tried to connect to the admin panel. I got successfully logged in, but it says, /etc/cherokee/cherokee.conf cannot be modified. | 04:21 |
| gogeta | lord_koala: sudo update-manager -d | 04:21 |
| jabirali | n0mad, don't think you need to restart x to enable SMB shares? | 04:21 |
| test34 | jabirali, they need to find a way to make transparency more useful or get rid of it... | 04:21 |
| RickyWh1 | I chmod u+w /etc/cherokee/cherokee.conf but that didn't fix, anyone know how I can fix? | 04:21 |
| gogeta | lord_koala: to do a upgrade | 04:21 |

| lord_koala | gogeta Yeah.. you are right.. how different lucid is.. | 04:24 |

| lord_koala | gogeta -d opiton goes to karmic I guess.. should I use -p for lucid.. | 04:26 |
| jabirali | test34, I never transferred them automatically, but in case you forgot any you could at least go to Preferences-dialog -> Security -> Saved Passwords -> Show Passwords ;) | 04:27 |
| gogeta | lord_koala: ok do it without d | 04:27 |
| gogeta | lord_koala: then change its settings to lts | 04:27 |

| gvsa123 | jabirali: it's set to only integrate with evo - meaning i can't change it? or did you mean it's not improssible to set it to use tb? | 04:41 |
| gogeta | rabidweezle: bill gates hates you | 04:41 |
| Sgeo | If I'm running an obsolete version of Ubuntu, is it normal for it to say that a package it's trying to install cannot be authenticated? | 04:41 |
| jabirali | gvsa123, I'm saying I'm not sure if it can be changed or not. Gonna check now :) | 04:41 |
| gogeta | rabidweezle: i say rerun grub-update maybe the menu got a messedup a bit | 04:42 |
| StefxOup | Hello people! | 04:42 |
| rabidweezle | k | 04:42 |
| Loshki | busydoinnothin: if you can stomach it, look at the configure file and search for zlib and see if you can see exactly what it's looking for... | 04:43 |
| theadmin | is there a way to redirect some (not ALL, just SOME) of programs output to stderr? | 04:43 |
| sool | StefxOup: hey! sgoin on? | 04:43 |
| onetinsoldier | busydoinnothin: hmmm. well, you can see what all zlib packages you have installed with this command, if it helps... dpkg -l '*zlib*' | grep ^ii ...to search for zlib stuff, do.. apt-cache search zlib | sort | 04:43 |
| DonScott | steam for linux - confirmed http://www.valvesoftware.com/job-SenSoftEngineer.html | 04:44 |
| rabidweezle | gogeta, grub-update: command not found | 04:44 |

| rabidweezle | sudo: grub-update: command not found | 04:44 |
| Loshki | theadmin: in general, no. The program decides which stream it writes on, all you get to decide is where that particular stream goes. Maybe you can use grep to isolate the text you're interested in? | 04:44 |
| gogeta | rabidweezle: sorry it was backwords update-grub | 04:45 |
| DonScott | but it's good news :D | 04:45 |
| sool | could anyone type my nick plz, im testing a new irssi-theme | 04:45 |
| onetinsoldier | sool: hello | 04:45 |
| sool | onetinsoldier: thx! | 04:45 |
| onetinsoldier | you're welcome | 04:45 |
| jabirali | gvsa123, sorry seems like it isn't possible to integrate with thunderbird yet | 04:45 |
| busydoinnothin | Loshki: Looking now...not exactly sure I know what I'm looking for tho! :) | 04:45 |
| onetinsoldier | sool: you're welcome :-) | 04:45 |
| theadmin | Loshki: Hm... as a matter of fact, this seems to work: "sudo nmap (long list of options here) | grep 'SYN'" | 04:45 |
| jabirali | gvsa123, I didn't find it in gconf-editor, so I might be wrong... | 04:45 |
| tuxx | is there any software for ubuntu to increase internet speed? | 04:46 |
| busydoinnothin | Steam for Linux? Awesome news...maybe I can finally ditch Windows then. | 04:46 |
| rabidweezle | gogeta, then just reboot? | 04:46 |
| Loshki | tuxx: what kind of speeds are you seeing? http://www.speakeasy.net/speedtest/ | 04:46 |
| jabirali | gvsa123, but a quick google yielded this: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MessagingMenu | 04:46 |
| gogeta | rabidweezle: worth a shot | 04:46 |
| mickster04 | has anyone set up exim before? i wat to set up to send emails without using gmail as the smtp server... | 04:46 |
| joshdreamland | bah, I guess this is just one of those issues that will persist for ten years before someone corrects it | 04:46 |
| gogeta | rabidweezle: if grub is messed up you can use supergrub live cd to repair it | 04:46 |
| Loshki | busydoinnothin: configure scripts are, in general, a nightmare to read... | 04:46 |
| joshdreamland | only six more to go, by my watch... | 04:46 |
| gogeta | rabidweezle: all guided | 04:46 |
| busydoinnothin | onetinsoldier: I have a few different zlib packages, zlib1g, zlib1g-dbg, zlib1g-dev | 04:46 |
| theadmin | busydoinnothin: It's already been known they will do it for a while, but never officially confirmed until a few days ago | 04:47 |
| gvsa123 | jabirali: i'm on that page already... looks like i'd have to contact the developers and ask them what their plans are... can't read through the whole page now, but will see about it... | 04:47 |
| jabirali | gvsa123, not google, I clicked the "about indicator-applet" link ;). The page lists apps integrated with the indicator applet, and the thunderbird part is still undocumented, likely meaning it's still on their TODO lit. | 04:47 |
| tuxx | Loshki ,surfing , downloading ,uploading because my internet spped not so gud? | 04:47 |
| gvsa123 | jabirali: not a biggy really, just convenient if i could work from that applet alone... | 04:47 |
| gvsa123 | jabirali: thanks!!! | 04:47 |
| theadmin | busydoinnothin: Guess what - Portal 2 (planned to be released Q4 2010, and to be "The best game VALVe has ever made") is planned to be on Windows, OSX, Linux, PS3 and XBox360... so not much of waiting. | 04:48 |
| Loshki | mickster04: so which smtp server do you want to use? | 04:48 |
| onetinsoldier | busydoinnothin: roger. i would think that would be all you need to satisfy the dependency to compile something against it | 04:48 |
| tuxx | Loshki :surfing , downloading ,uploading because my internet spped not so gud? | 04:48 |
| lord_koala | bastid_raZor gogeta onetinsolder Thanks.. now it is updating.. udo do-release-upgrade --devel-release worked.. normal upgrade returnd: no new version is available... it seems lucis LTS is not final. | 04:48 |
| Loshki | tuxx: that isn't what I asked you :-( | 04:48 |
| jabirali | gvsa123, np, I see how it could be handy :). By the way, do you know if the deskbar project is still up? I think they had a thunderbird plugin, so you could e.g. search in the thunderbird entries directly from the panel. Along with firefox bookmarks, web history, etc. | 04:48 |
| busydoinnothin | Nice! Ever since I started playing with Linux again for my home server project, I've gotten kinda hooked. Games are what hold me back. | 04:49 |
| gogeta | lord_koala: did it say lucid | 04:49 |
| lord_koala | gogeta Yes. | 04:49 |
| gogeta | lord_koala: i just dont think the scripts got updated | 04:49 |
| jabirali | gvsa123, seems like Deskbar is in the repos. You could try it out and see if it helps. | 04:49 |
| onetinsoldier | busydoinnothin: you might need these if you version of ubuntu has them available... lib32z1, and lib32z1-dev | 04:49 |
| gogeta | lord_koala: all should go well then | 04:49 |
| busydoinnothin | onetinsoldier: I'll give those a shot. Let me see if I have em | 04:49 |

| onetinsoldier | busydoinnothin: roger... good luck! | 04:50 |
| theadmin | tuxx: But give gwget a shot. | 04:50 |
| acerimmer | tuxx: u mean software or method? | 04:50 |
| gvsa123 | jabirali: i have not run on ubuntu for quite some time... last time i used it as around 7.10 i think. xp just got hit with a virus so threw that away already... lost about a month of data there... arg!!! | 04:50 |
| gogeta | tuxx: what are you trying to downlad | 04:50 |
| gogeta | tuxx: yea never use best use recomnnended | 04:51 |
| tuxx | both method or software | 04:51 |
| gogeta | tuxx: couse you may not like what someone says os good | 04:51 |
| tuxx | linux is very gud os | 04:52 |
| acidchild | in the ubuntu installer, there is an option to make it a video/graphica suit, or xubuntu or edubuntu and you can select what bundles to install, is there a list of their names from apt-get ? | 04:52 |

| onetinsoldier | acidchild: yes | 04:52 |
| acidchild | what are they called? | 04:52 |
| jabirali | gvsa123, ouch that hurts... For next time, check out a linux app called Foremost. It's developed by the US Airforce to recover data from partitions with corrupted metadata, works like a charm for data recovery. (and yes it's open source) | 04:52 |
| tuxx | gogeta : thankx i will try..... | 04:53 |
| acidchild | url me please! or key term... w/e will get me to it. | 04:53 |
| busydoinnothin | onetinsoldier: rats! no dice. Installed both those packages. | 04:53 |
| onetinsoldier | busydoinnothin: roger... darn. don't know | 04:53 |
| onetinsoldier | acidchild: do something like... apt-cache show ubuntustudio-desktop | 04:54 |
| jabirali | gvsa123, livecd + external harddrive for recovered data = get all your data back (although it is still a workload to discover what filenames correspond to which files, but at least you have the files) | 04:54 |
| acidchild | aptitude -- search '-desktop' | 04:54 |
| acidchild | ah they are all appended with '-desktop' cool. | 04:54 |
| root | hi | 04:54 |

| dancho | the problems is that i want a bar in that second | 04:59 |
| gogeta | dancho: yea but you gotta tell it you whant the entire dekstop there | 04:59 |

| gogeta | dancho: like add new taskbar | 04:59 |
| dancho | i can't | 04:59 |

| gogeta | rightclick? | 05:00 |
| dancho | becasuse there is no panel to localte that taskbar | 05:00 |

| AAA_awright | The "change" made for the "upgrade" the menu bar buttons and the like | 05:00 |
| AAA_awright | What do you call it I can't find it on Google | 05:00 |

| jabirali | AAA_awright, browse to /apps/metacity/general in gconf-editor | 05:01 |

| chrismsnz | hey guys - i'm installing some apt updates, but I want a list of things that have changed since the previous version, is there a way to see it? | 05:16 |
| RagnarokAngel | gogeta: If i'm upgrading via CD (or usb) do I need to use the alternate CD or can I use a regular liveCD? | 05:16 |
| gogeta | RagnarokAngel: alt cd but once you make it a bottable cd using unet bottin it should see it | 05:17 |
| RagnarokAngel | gogeta: ok. | 05:17 |
| gogeta | bootable usb | 05:17 |
| gogeta | then it will say like package cd insrtued | 05:17 |
| iibewegung | Thanks, Appl6 | 05:17 |
| RagnarokAngel | ok | 05:18 |
| Appl6 | iibewegung: You're welcome. I hope it answered your question? | 05:18 |
| iibewegung | Appl6: totally did | 05:18 |
| Appl6 | iibewegung: Great. | 05:18 |
| onetinsoldier | busydoinnothin: hello again. what's the full error message? you'll probably need to pastebin it | 05:19 |
| gogeta | RagnarokAngel: thers probly another way via softwhere sources to make you way work by manuly adding it | 05:19 |
| onetinsoldier | busydoinnothin: nvm. i guess that is the full error message, sorry. have you got that package installed? | 05:19 |
| RagnarokAngel | gogeta: writing w/ unetbootin now instead of trying to manually mount | 05:19 |
| quietone | I boot Vista/Ubuntu-main/Ubuntu-play. Works fine but I have grub executing from Ubuntu-play not Ubuntu-main. How do I change it? | 05:20 |
| RagnarokAngel | gogeta: Thing is that this is what's written in the official documentation. | 05:20 |
| xela501 | my macbooks webcam isn't being picked up by ubuntu 10.04 can some one please help me get it to work? | 05:20 |
| gogeta | RagnarokAngel: as i said | 05:20 |
| onetinsoldier | busydoinnothin: looks like you need to install libavcodec52 | 05:20 |
| RagnarokAngel | gogeta: hmm maybe I just had the wrong iso… | 05:20 |
| RagnarokAngel | in which case I feel like an idiot. | 05:20 |
| gogeta | RagnarokAngel: alt iso | 05:20 |
| busydoinnothin | onetinsoldier: I have it installed, but I have 4:0.5+svn20090706-2ubuntu2.2, which is the latest one available | 05:21 |
| busydoinnothin | at least in Synaptic | 05:21 |
| RagnarokAngel | gogeta: yep, I have the netbook iso on that usb drive | 05:21 |
| busydoinnothin | Looks like it's looking for a higher version...where else could I download it from? | 05:21 |
| * RagnarokAngel facepalm | 05:21 | |
| codygman | What video editor would you guys recommend? I'm about to try kdenlive, is it good? | 05:21 |
| onetinsoldier | busydoinnothin: nvm me.. i didn't read all your posts until now. well, lets me see if i can find newer one somehow | 05:21 |
| ozfalcon | How do I add/remove files from nautilus burn:/// by command line? Surely this CAN be done??? | 05:22 |
| RagnarokAngel | codygman: Ars liked it. | 05:22 |
| gogeta | RagnarokAngel: not the netbook alt lol | 05:22 |
| Jordan_U | quietone: In Ubuntu-play run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc" and when asked which drives to install to unselect all of them, then in Ubuntu-main run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure" but this time make sure to select a hard drive to install to (do *not* select any partitions) | 05:22 |
| RagnarokAngel | gogeta: yep, I totally just answered my own question. | 05:22 |
| magn3ts | So was it the brilliant Ubuntu devs or the brilliant GNOME devs that decided I no longer get to have control over when my laptop decides to suspend/hibernate? | 05:22 |
| Jordan_U | codygman: pitivi | 05:22 |
| gogeta | RagnarokAngel: with 4 gb of space i just say fresh install | 05:23 |
| RagnarokAngel | on a different note anyone else having gnome-do randomly crash? | 05:23 |
| gogeta | RagnarokAngel: get rid of any old stuff | 05:23 |
| RagnarokAngel | gogeta: my mom doesn't want to lose her config files on her netbook | 05:23 |
| RagnarokAngel | gogeta: or her saves for supertux | 05:23 |
| RagnarokAngel | gogeta: and I'm too lazy to tarball the backup. | 05:23 |
| gogeta | lol | 05:23 |
| quietone | Jordan_U, I am on a laptop with one drive and I will need to select the desired partition | 05:23 |
| gogeta | bought to say tar thome | 05:23 |

| tomofdeath | hi all i have a question about 10.04 just want to make sure im in the right place | 05:23 |
| gogeta | home | 05:23 |
| ozfalcon | How do I add/remove files from nautilus burn:/// by command line? Anyone know how? | 05:23 |
| Jordan_U | magn3ts: Please state your problem without extra editorial comments | 05:24 |
| nanotube | magn3ts: there are probably some hidden settings in gconf-editor :) | 05:24 |
| magn3ts | "brilliant" is too editorial? | 05:24 |
| Jordan_U | quietone: Install to the MBR, not to a partition. | 05:24 |
| magn3ts | So was it the Ubuntu devs or the GNOME devs that decided I no longer get to have control over when my laptop decides to suspend/hibernate? | 05:24 |
| gogeta | RagnarokAngel: i dont see a alt iso for netbook | 05:25 |
| nanotube | magn3ts: haha funny. but seriously... what exactly is the issue you're having? comp suspends by itself? | 05:25 |
| tomofdeath | the wireless icon on the upper panel of my laptop keeps dissapering and i cant seem to be able to get it back | 05:25 |
| onetinsoldier | busydoinnothin: well, i'm not having any luck finding it, sorry | 05:26 |
| chelz | ozfalcon: it would probably be a lot easier to script the burning of stuff not using that nautilus stuff | 05:26 |
| codygman | I sometimes get an error in firefox. I am typing into the url or search textbox, then if I stop typing all of my text is highlighted. This usually results in typing over what I wrote and is quite annoying. I'm on ubuntu 10.04. | 05:26 |
| RagnarokAngel | gogeta: I just had the regular netbook iso. Which was why I thought I was having problems… anyway I think I have it figured out | 05:26 |
| busydoinnothin | onetinsoldier: No problem...I guess it's gotta be out there somewhere? If this deb is requiring it | 05:26 |
| Jordan_U | magn3ts: I have control over when my laptop decides to suspend/hibernate, and ridiculing developers won't help (or encourage) anyone to solve your problem. Please state the problem you are having. | 05:26 |
| chelz | ozfalcon: this might help http://obsoleet.org/code/burn-dvd-video/burn-dvd-video-1.0.sh.html | 05:26 |
| magn3ts | Well, my battery life in Ubuntu is about 20 minutes, which is sad because its well over 2 hours in OS X. Anyway, I plugged my laptop in, booted it, and the cord came out for a whole two seconds. During that time Ubuntu decided it was time to hibernate. This is frustrating because A- it takes an hour to hibernate, B- it doesn't wake up from hibernation after upgrading to 10.04 and C- when it comes out of hiberation/sleep, the WiFi doesn't w | 05:26 |
| magn3ts | ork anymore. SO... I go to my power settings and low and behold, I can't chose to do nothing when my laptop is low on battery. Which I could in 9.04. | 05:26 |
| onetinsoldier | busydoinnothin: you'd think so, yes | 05:27 |
| quietone | Jordan_U, thanks. I'm off to try it.. | 05:27 |
| Typeroi | Hello guy ! ^^ | 05:27 |
| magn3ts | Jordan_U, no, this is another example of a feature that was removed and I genuinely want to know if the feature was removed by a gnome developer or an ubuntu developer. I'm not ridiculing anyone. I removed my "brilliant" sarcasm. | 05:27 |
| gogeta | RagnarokAngel: yea but i dont see a alt cd for unr | 05:27 |
| ZykoticK9 | RagnarokAngel, re: gnome-do crash -- docky just disappears/crashes on my system (far too often!) -- i haven't really looked into it, but it's driving me a little crazy :) hope you find a solution. | 05:27 |
| greezmunkey | *Question* I could use some help interpreting the linked file. I am looking at trying to interface an unsupported usb scanner, and found this: http://www.linux-usb.org/usb.devices.txt - I need to mknod a device file. My question is, is the major number the left column, with the minor to the right? | 05:27 |
| Phayt | Hi. I'm trying to install Ubuntu. This will be my first Linux distro. I've burned the iso onto a CD-R using Alcohol 120. When I try to boot from it, it goes to a loading screen, then freezes up on a black screen with a white prompt in the top left (though you can't actually type anything). Why is this happening, and how can I fix it? | 05:28 |
| Phayt | (i've asked in #ubunt-beginners and haven't gotten a reply) | 05:28 |
| RagnarokAngel | ZykoticK9 Well let me know what you find because do is randomly being unable to call up which kills the usefulness of it. | 05:28 |
| nanotube | magn3ts: well haven't upgraded to lucid yet... so dunno... and, you might have a better chance of getting a reply on 'whodunit' in the gnome channel rather than here.... | 05:28 |
| gogeta | RagnarokAngel: well the only diffrence with unr is the netbook launcher app | 05:28 |
| RagnarokAngel | ZykoticK9: Should probably run verbose from cli and find out what is causing it. | 05:28 |
| magn3ts | "When battery power is critically low: Hibernate/Sleep/Shutdown" There used to be a fourth option, "Do Nothing". It has been removed, much to my disappointment. | 05:28 |
| ZykoticK9 | RagnarokAngel, are you using Lucid (64 bit by any chance?) | 05:28 |
| gogeta | RagnarokAngel: you can just install it after | 05:28 |
| Viking667 | Hi there. I have a machine that has a hard drive (10Gb) and a network adaptor, but no CDROM drive. How do I get Ubuntu onto this machine? | 05:29 |
| RickyWh1 | which file holds the apt repos? | 05:29 |
| RagnarokAngel | gogeta: Well, some other programs aren't included and such but that's the gist of it, yes | 05:29 |
| RagnarokAngel | ZykoticK9: Lucid on 32bit. | 05:29 |
| acidchild | How do i know what nvidia driver package to install? | 05:29 |
| gogeta | RagnarokAngel: heck the alt iso may not even remove those apps but update em | 05:29 |
| acidchild | i have a 6100 nvidia card... | 05:29 |
| dbum | Viking667:Do you have a usb drive.....(thumb drive)? | 05:29 |
| magn3ts | nanotube, yeah, I probably would. I think this may be the straw that breaks the camels back though. Between gnome-screensaver, gdm, power management, etc, I'm kinda tired of gnome's regressive attitude. It would probably serve me better to simply switch to xfce and get it over with | 05:30 |
| Skjebne | i have a question, Im going to install ubuntu 10.04 tonight, it's gonna be my first linux OS. My question is, is there any battery savings while running ubuntu ? Actually, is the OS using less memory while running ? thx | 05:30 |
| magn3ts | Skjebne, compared to what? I have better performance in Linux but I have terrible battery life. | 05:30 |
| TanLiz | When I compliing the mplayer with --enalble-config.It turns out with "libvo/vo_vaapi.o: In function `flip_page_glx':" | 05:30 |
| nanotube | magn3ts: maybe. :) | 05:30 |
| RagnarokAngel | Skjebne: Seems to be sort of dependent on a few more factors. The UNR has more battery problems than even winxp actually… | 05:31 |
| TanLiz | Can anybody help me? | 05:31 |
| Jordan_U | Skjebne: Unfortunately hardware support is usually not a good with linux, and that includes power management features. | 05:31 |
| busydoinnothin | onetinsoldier: I might need to get a Debian package for this...is that all good? | 05:31 |
| Skjebne | okay, thanks to you all | 05:31 |
| magn3ts | TanLiz, that's not a complete error message. | 05:31 |
| Dizz | #winehq | 05:31 |
| RagnarokAngel | Jordan_U: Well that is about to change with intel hardware — meego and the menlow stuff is all designed together. | 05:31 |
| gogeta | RagnarokAngel: i used to get that untill 9.10 then my battery time was what it shoulda have been for a 900a 3 hrs | 05:31 |
| lyrae | everytime i log into windows and back into ubuntu, my monitors settings get screwed. anyone else? | 05:31 |
| dbum | !ask | TanLiz | 05:31 |
| TanLiz | I try many methods,but didn't work | 05:31 |
| ubottu | TanLiz: 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. :-) | 05:31 |
| magn3ts | TanLiz, on the other hand, I have a MBP and almost everything works out of box. My WiFi issue is new and due to the upgrade I think. | 05:31 |
| RagnarokAngel | gogeta: Probably helped that 9.10 added usb sleep modes and such. | 05:32 |
| Viking667 | might do. | 05:32 |
| Skjebne | magn3ts, im running a win vista right now, have been for a year or so, but i tweaked it a little and, as such, has never had problems | 05:32 |
| magn3ts | TanLiz, I'll repeat. That was not a complete error message. Post the whole thing on a pastebin and someone might have a chance of helping you. | 05:32 |
| Loshki | TanLiz: why are you compiling mplayer source? There are plenty of binaries... | 05:32 |
| Viking667 | Could be an idea. I've got a 4Gb drive here i possibly could repurpose | 05:32 |
| magn3ts | Skjebne, ugh. well I couldn't stand Vista, Win7 is really quite good. Don't switch to Linux for better battery life.... | 05:32 |
| Viking667 | You're thinking jam a bootable iso image onto a thumbdrive? | 05:33 |
| gogeta | RagnarokAngel: in lucid my c610 battery instantly drops to 64% lol but bios says 100% but the times right so the app misreads it | 05:33 |
| onetinsoldier | busydoinnothin: i'm sorry.. what's the question? | 05:33 |
| Dizz | somone help me? | 05:33 |
| RagnarokAngel | gogeta: that's odd | 05:33 |
| Skjebne | magn3ts, I'm not switching for that ;) | 05:33 |
| nanotube | magn3ts: well, fwiw, my battery life on my dell mini is pretty awesome. | 05:33 |
| tuxx | iam using dell vostro 1510 but somtimes my wifi does not work then i again install driver ? | 05:33 |
| gogeta | RagnarokAngel: well 2 hrs on my c610 hr and a half under load normal | 05:33 |
| RagnarokAngel | Dizz: What's the issue? | 05:33 |
| Phayt | Hi. I'm trying to install Ubuntu 10.04 - this will be my first Linux distro. I've burned the iso onto a CD-R using Alcohol 120. When I try to boot from it, it goes to a loading screen, then freezes up on a black screen with a white prompt in the top left (though you can't actually type anything). Why is this happening, and how can I fix it? | 05:33 |
| Phayt | I've asked in #ubuntu-beginners and gotten no reply. | 05:33 |
| onetinsoldier | busydoinnothin: i've still been looking to see if i can find it. it looks like it was a lucid beta version package | 05:33 |
| gogeta | RagnarokAngel: just the percentage is read wrong | 05:33 |
| busydoinnothin | onetinsoldier: Would it be a problem if I go out and get a Debian package for this dependency? | 05:33 |
| codygman | is there any video editor that uses VLC as the previewer? | 05:34 |
| nanotube | magn3ts: and on my other comp, can't say that it became any worse from the os change. | 05:34 |
| magn3ts | nanotube, oh I'm not willing to put it past the fact that I'm running ubuntu on an apple product... I wouldn't be surprised at all | 05:34 |
| busydoinnothin | Ahh | 05:34 |
| Skjebne | But then again, is ubuntu using less live memory ? | 05:34 |
| RagnarokAngel | gogeta: I couldn't get conky to read %s at all for some reason | 05:34 |
| Jordan_U | magn3ts: I just confirmed that I still have that choice on my laptop running 10.04 | 05:34 |
| ZykoticK9 | RagnarokAngel, FYI you might wanna check out/add yourself to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-do-plugins/+bug/478410 which suggests running "gnome-do --debug" in a terminal. I'm doing the same for Docky ;) Good luck man. | 05:34 |
| tuxx | is there any folder lock for ubuntu? | 05:34 |
| TanLiz | Loshki: My mplayer doesn't support VAAPI | 05:34 |
| RagnarokAngel | ZykoticK9: Thanks, will look at that when I finish with this upgrade | 05:34 |
| magn3ts | Phayt, can you describe the loading screen? | 05:34 |
| onetinsoldier | busydoinnothin: no.., that's what you need | 05:34 |
| Dizz | RagnarokAngel: im trying to install Fable with my disks and im trying to run the install.exe but it says i need to make it executable ..i go to permissions and it says i cant | 05:34 |
| Jordan_U | magn3ts: What is the output of "laptop-detect; echo $?" ? | 05:34 |
| RagnarokAngel | Dizz: You need wine. | 05:34 |
| onetinsoldier | busydoinnothin: you need the debian package for this dependency | 05:34 |
| magn3ts | Jordan_U, uh, `0` | 05:35 |
| gogeta | RagnarokAngel: lol the c610 is a old beast even when i had 2 batterys in it i only got like 4 hrs | 05:35 |
| tuxx | is there any folder lock for ubuntu? | 05:35 |
| Dizz | RagnarokAngel: i have wine .. | 05:35 |
| RagnarokAngel | gogeta: Lol | 05:35 |
| busydoinnothin | onetinsoldier: Gotcha. Thanks, I'm starting to dig around the Debian packages now | 05:35 |
| TanLiz | magn3ts: I am trying to post. Thanks for your attention. | 05:35 |
| RagnarokAngel | Dizz: Are you running the .exe through wine? | 05:35 |
| Dizz | RagnarokAngel: i dont know how thats why im here . lol | 05:35 |
| gogeta | RagnarokAngel: when dell used to make those dule battery bays ifyou removed the cd drive | 05:35 |
| dbum | tuxx: do you mean like an encryption? | 05:35 |
| gogeta | RagnarokAngel: but 1 battery died so im down to 1 | 05:35 |
| magn3ts | Jordan_U, which apparently means it thinks I have a laptop, which makes sense. The power pref has a tab for "On Battery power" but I simply don't have the "Do nothing" choice like I used to. Or maybe I haven't had it since I switched from my Thinkpad to my MBP. | 05:35 |
| RagnarokAngel | Right click the .exe and see if there is a "open in wine" button | 05:35 |
| Dizz | RagnarokAngel: there isnt | 05:36 |
| onetinsoldier | busydoinnothin: good luck. it looks to me like, you'd need the lucid version of libavcodec52. but i'm not at all positive | 05:36 |
| RagnarokAngel | gogeta: Yeah, I have dual bays on an old dell here too | 05:36 |
| Dizz | RagnarokAngel: wait ya there is but it says i need permission | 05:36 |
| lyrae | how do i change the part after '@' in the terminal? | 05:36 |
| nanotube | magn3ts: have you tried googling, for the battery life problem? you can't be the only person who's installed ubuntu on a mbp | 05:36 |
| RagnarokAngel | Dizz: Did you install wine as root? | 05:36 |
| magn3ts | Jordan_U, apparently others have this problem with the lid closing at least: http://www.rebelzero.com/fixes/karmic-gnome-power-manager-hides-do-nothing-from-the-gui/223 | 05:36 |
| gogeta | RagnarokAngel: quick lemmie steam your hinges lol | 05:36 |
| gogeta | steal | 05:36 |
| k3rn | hi! i have ubuntu installed on an external drive. it seems like i got errors in the filesystem. when the filesystem gets checked on bootup, it hangs at 27%. is there hope that it gets fixed? shoudl i give it more time, or may i try anything else? | 05:37 |
| gogeta | RagnarokAngel: i broke on me | 05:37 |
| Phayt | magn3ts: iirc, it says ubuntu towards the bottom. It's got a little image that I think is supposed to be a battery? Not sure. It's a dark, warm color, I think red. From that it goes into a black screen that says something to the effect of STARTING ISOLINUX, something about debian, a copyright. then it goes into the blank screen with the white prompt. | 05:37 |
| gogeta | 1 | 05:37 |
| tuxx | dbum :ya | 05:37 |
| Loshki | TanLiz: then you need to paste the full text of the error to http://ubuntu.pastebin.com so we can look at it with you | 05:37 |
| Jordan_U | magn3ts: I don't remember there ever being a "do nothing when battery is critically low" option, I do have the option to do nothing when inactive and when the lid is closed though. | 05:37 |
| bullgard4 | tuxx: You can lock packages using Synaptic. | 05:37 |
| magn3ts | nanotube, its listed as a known issue on the ubuntu wiki pages for MBPs | 05:37 |
| Dizz | RagnarokAngel: im pretty sure. i got it from the software center | 05:37 |
| RagnarokAngel | gogeta: Awe, Well the powercord for mine is shot to pieces so it's just sitting here. | 05:37 |
| gogeta | RagnarokAngel: defect of those old dells | 05:37 |
| RagnarokAngel | Dizz: No that shouldn't have installed it as root. | 05:37 |
| gogeta | RagnarokAngel: i got like 5 bricks for it lol | 05:37 |
| nanotube | magn3ts: hrm... no workarounds anywhere? that's too bad... | 05:37 |
| gogeta | RagnarokAngel: a few still work i jsut didnt like the heat they genrated | 05:37 |
| VK7HSE | I'm having an issue with logging into the ubuntu-wiki after I enter my details into the open ID part I get a screen informing me that The username you have chosen is already taken, So I enter my passwd but it then informs me that The password you entered is not valid. I'm just going around in circles! | 05:37 |
| Dizz | RagnarokAngel: ahh okay how do i install as root then? ill un install throu the software center | 05:38 |
| RagnarokAngel | gogeta: lol, Well our idea was to straight solder a wire in and use it as a desktop but that never happened. | 05:38 |
| magn3ts | Jordan_U, sigh, now I feel like a jack-butt. Maybe I was confusing the close lid options with the low battery options. Do you have any tips on how I could disable this functionality? Or how I can troubleshoot why my laptop is unable to resume from hibernation? I just don't really know where to start with the latter. | 05:38 |
| nanotube | RagnarokAngel: grab a cheapo powercord from ebay, and problem solved. | 05:38 |
| tuxx | bullgardd4: okssssssss | 05:38 |
| RagnarokAngel | Dizz: No, the permissions thing would have been if you installed as root, which would have been that problem. | 05:38 |
| gogeta | RagnarokAngel: yea those cords are standerd and cheap | 05:38 |
| RagnarokAngel | nanotube: None of them have the stupid crap proprietary end that Dell put on that model | 05:38 |
| gogeta | RagnarokAngel: i got compleate bricks thow | 05:38 |
| nanotube | RagnarokAngel: which model? | 05:39 |
| dbum | tuxx: I'm sure there are programs for that... none that I know that are built into linux for EXT4.... I use the encryption builtin to the zip program...... right click on folder...select compress...choose zip then click advanced options and enter password | 05:39 |
| RagnarokAngel | looks like a mini AC port with ground. | 05:39 |
| Dizz | RagnarokAngel: i un-installed wine . how do i install as root? | 05:39 |
| gogeta | RagnarokAngel: yep | 05:39 |
| RagnarokAngel | '00 inspiron | 05:39 |
| RagnarokAngel | Dizz: You don't want to. You should install from the beta channel though — winehq.org | 05:39 |
| nanotube | RagnarokAngel: inspiron /what/ ? | 05:39 |
| dekushrub | I need to install wireless drivers on a new ubuntu 10.4 installation that doesn't have access to ethernet. I know that the wireless drivers are on the install cd because I was able to use wireless in the "try ubuntu" phase but I can't find them now that I've actually installed ubuntu. Help please | 05:39 |
| tuxx | dbum : thankzzzzzzzzz | 05:39 |
| nanotube | RagnarokAngel: i.e., i have an inspiron 5150. what do you have? | 05:39 |
| dbum | tuxx:np | 05:39 |
| Dizz | RagnarokAngel: dont do it throu the terminal? | 05:40 |
| gogeta | RagnarokAngel: its just the plug that goes to the laptop thats a dell only thing | 05:40 |
| RagnarokAngel | nanotube: That sounds somewhere near the model I have lying around here. | 05:40 |
| gogeta | RagnarokAngel: to the wall its satnderd | 05:40 |
| gogeta | standerd | 05:40 |
| RagnarokAngel | gogeta: Yeah, I can't ind those ends anywhere though. | 05:40 |
| nanotube | heh well, i got the whole replacement cord with brick and all for mine for around $20 on ebay some years ago. | 05:40 |
| nanotube | RagnarokAngel: so if yours is "about the same" then you should be able to get a cord. | 05:40 |
| RagnarokAngel | wow nice. | 05:40 |
| RagnarokAngel | nanotube: I should look at it | 05:41 |
| gogeta | RagnarokAngel: yea the bricks are cheap these days | 05:41 |
| RagnarokAngel | hmm, I should look into this. | 05:41 |
| nanotube | RagnarokAngel: (don't go looking for it on dell site - they'll charge you $100 for it) | 05:41 |
| TanLiz | magn3ts: I am already pasted them to http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/VDMEWZpt | 05:41 |

| eLement-netbk | Ahem. | 05:52 |
| scunizi | Dizz: dual boot.. or install windows in a virtual machine inside of ubuntu | 05:52 |
| nanotube | Dizz: or, depending on what you need it for, you could also just run windows in a vm | 05:52 |

| eLement-netbk | Cannot access any TTYS either using ctrl+alt+F# | 05:53 |
| jabirali | Cruseydr, it will allow a lot more caching, which means that after keeping your machine running for a while - you will have less disk activity, and a lot better response time when opening apps, opening often used files, etc | 05:53 |
| bullgard4 | uLinux: In GNOME, use a starter (program). | 05:53 |
| Cruseydr | thanks =) | 05:53 |

| orsos | Sziasztok | 06:14 |
| gogeta | lord_koala: same for port you whant open | 06:15 |
| orsos | valaki nem tudja hogy az amsn ubuntu10.04-en hova menti az elözményket? | 06:15 |
| lord_koala | Loshki gogeta I just chose install option ..now it is updating.. I guess the problem is solved right now.. and this is just for testing.. ufw is not crucial. | 06:15 |
| Loshki | lord_koala: ok, no problem then... | 06:15 |
| greezmunkey | Does Ubuntu have a script available to roll all logs on demand? | 06:15 |
| gogeta | lord_koala: well you can allow ips its blocking | 06:15 |
| gogeta | lord_koala: as i showed | 06:15 |
| gogeta | lord_koala: same for ports like samba sudo ufw allow 80/tcp | 06:16 |
| gogeta | lord_koala: and so on | 06:16 |
| gogeta | lord_koala: pretty simple to mange | 06:16 |
| dbum | TanLiz: dang this takes a long time.... still no problems yet for me though....I know this probably isn't helping you too much...... just seeing if I could replicate the problem.... I'm using very similar setup (32-bit,ATI card) | 06:16 |
| lord_koala | Loshki gogeta onetinsoldier Thanks guys.. seems working now. I will configure ufw later if it presents new problems. | 06:16 |
| Fretster | interesting... i obtained album art from amazon, dropped it in rythmbox and it keeps even after deleting the file, but there is no change in file size or files in the directory where the song is kept | 06:17 |
| onetinsoldier | lord_koala: roger. sounds good. you're welcome :-) | 06:17 |
| bjron | soreau: yea been poking around online a bit and in my .xsession-errors I'm seeing 'Failed to execute child process "/usr/bin/compiz.real"', which doesn't seem to exist anymore. can I just delete any old sessions? | 06:17 |
| Fretster | does rythmbox keep these files seperate or what? | 06:17 |
| soreau | bjron: Probably better to just do what I said ;) | 06:17 |
| the_gov | We are not spying on this chatroom at this time. Do not fear! | 06:18 |

| lord_koala | gogeta Do I need to edit some config file? | 06:21 |
| gogeta | lord_koala: yea edting grub a bit tricky | 06:21 |
| gogeta | lord_koala: added extra steps i hate | 06:21 |
| lord_koala | gogeta Which grub module should I choose? generic-pae or server? | 06:22 |

| gogeta | lord_koala: edting grub.cnf doesent work anymore | 06:24 |

How difficult would it be to create a CD for installation but have it setup to boot up, obtain an IP address, setup a user account with password, and start SSH? I have a few hundred RHEL servers that I need to upgrade to Ubuntu, and they are all in remote locations. | 06:25 |
| bryant | I've been having poor speeds with my internet connection since installing Ubuntu 10.04 LTS. I decided to try a direct connect through my router port and got normal speeds, so it seems that only my wireless connection is messing up. However, it runs great on Windows 7 with normal speeds. My question is this, could somebody please tell me how to update the drivers/firmware for my router and... | 06:26 |
| bryant | ...tell me in details please!!!! I'm very new to this. LInksys tech support wouldn't help because my warranty has expired. I've been trying to find a solution to this for a week now and nobody seems to know how to help or want to help. | 06:26 |
| ActionParsnip | Bdunn: you could create a very simple bash script to run from a CD. You could even use the customise live cd to put the script on the install cd itself | 06:26 |
| gogeta | lord_koala: no they just added crap | 06:27 |
| fuyang | ActionParsnip:totem player*, typed wrong just now | 06:27 |
| gogeta | lord_koala: you have to edit /etc/defult/grub | 06:27 |
| ThirtySeconds | why would a README tell me to './configure' if there is no configuration file with the source? | 06:27 |
| gogeta | lord_koala: add the mode vga=789 | 06:27 |
| bdunn | ActionParsnip: I was hoping to hear the word simple from someone. Do you have a decent URL for this? I haven't been able to find one. I have end user support but they can only put in the CD, power cycle the server, and that's going to be the extent of my assistance. | 06:27 |
| gogeta | lord_koala: save your changed then sudo update-grub | 06:28 |
| Nonpython_ | Is there a decent GBA emulator for ubuntu? | 06:28 |
| dbum | TanLiz, I was looking at this page and @ the bottom it talks about dependancies and I don't have xlibs installed???? maybe..... http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=186042 | 06:28 |
| gogeta | lord_koala: then it will be perma | 06:28 |
| ActionParsnip | Bryanyt: install a local dns and look into tweaking /etc/sysctl.conf . You can also disable ipv6 to get a tiny bit more speed maybe (assuming you don't use it) | 06:28 |
| * Viking667 disappears again | 06:28 | |

| bryant | How do I tweak /etc/sysctl.conf? | 06:28 |
| gogeta | lord_koala: im suprised a server install is even useing fb mode | 06:28 |
| bryant | I've tried using OpenDNS. | 06:29 |
| bryant | I've also disabled ipv6 before aswell. | 06:29 |

| bryant | Which browser do you use ActionParsnip? | 06:30 |
| ActionParsnip | Bryant: opendns is still on the www. Using dnsmasq will make name resolves take 0ms rather than about 50ms | 06:30 |
| onetinsoldier | n0mad: did that help? | 06:30 |
| ActionParsnip | Bryant: I use 127.0.0.1 then the ones from my provider | 06:30 |

| iceroot | crash1hd: maybe the journal? | 06:42 |
| onetinsoldier | jan247: hey, wanted to say i goofed on that first command i gave you. it should have been, dig -x <ip_addr> | 06:42 |
| crash1hd | iceroot, is there a way of adjusting that? | 06:42 |
| iceroot | crash1hd: hm, ext2 dont have that, sorry | 06:42 |
| jan247 | onetinsoldier: tnx! :) | 06:42 |
| crash1hd | 2% fine on a small drive but on a 2TB drive thats a few GB | 06:42 |
| gogeta | lord_koala: then your reez is changed | 06:42 |
| onetinsoldier | jan247: you're welcome | 06:42 |

| crash1hd | Jordan_U, well it can add up | 06:43 |
| kaniini | drwx----- ? | 06:43 |
| gogeta | lord_koala: but i didnt think we had to play with it | 06:43 |
| iceroot | kaniini: yes | 06:43 |
| lord_koala | gogeta It shows 640x480?? but it is impossible.. it is under gfxmode.. perhaps there is some default value overriding it | 06:43 |
| kaniini | iceroot: thx | 06:43 |
| gogeta | lord_koala: it probly is then it switches the line you add makes it stick | 06:43 |
| kaniini | how about a folder which i and group has? | 06:44 |
| kaniini | drwxr-x--- ? | 06:44 |
| crash1hd | remember 1% of 2TB is 20GB so thats 40GB which is alot | 06:44 |
| iceroot | kaniini: if the group should write, its 770 | 06:44 |
| gogeta | lord_koala: so set your rez and add the line set gfxpayload=keep | 06:44 |
| kaniini | iceroot: k. thanks :) | 06:44 |

| lord_koala | gogeta Just under the rez line? | 06:46 |
| iceroot | kaniini: its owner,group,others read=4,write=2,execute=1 so read and execute is 4+1=5 | 06:46 |

| iceroot | Nonpython_: the shell | 06:46 |
| kaniini | ok | 06:46 |
| Jordan_U | crash1hd: There is a certain amount of space required for the data structures (at filesystem creation time you can reduce the number of reserved inodes if you plan on not having many small files) | 06:46 |
| Jordan_U | crash1hd: With btrfs inode allocation is dynamic, but then I think btrfs may have more overhead for other reasons. | 06:47 |

| Jordan_U | gogeta: For the furture, simple additions of lines to the grub.cfg should be added to /etc/grub.d/40_custom | 06:48 |

| tuxx | hi to all | 06:48 |

| bastid_raZor | what would be the preferred method of mounting a remote folder between to ubuntu boxes? | 06:51 |
| crash1hd | Jordan_U, but isnt 40GB a bit on the large size for anything being reserved? | 06:51 |
| lord_koala | gogeta No.. do I use set gfxpayload=keep or just gfxpayload=keep | 06:51 |
| gogeta | lord_koala: set | 06:52 |
| iceroot | bastid_raZor: i am usin samba for that because with nfs you have to sync the uids | 06:52 |
| iceroot | crash1hd: its still 2% the same as on a 10gb drive | 06:52 |
| ljsoftnet | how do i put --bookmark-menu in chrome to show bookmark icon? i dont like extension, i tried Command: after chrome nothing happens | 06:52 |
| Jordan_U | crash1hd: I'm not sure what percent of that is due to inode allocation, but consider that with ext3* you can't add more inodes if you decide you didn't reserve enough to start with. So you have to be very conservative with the default value. | 06:52 |
| bastid_raZor | iceroot: the folder contains movies and i stream them .. does samba do well with streaming? | 06:52 |
| n0mad | are there any capabilities, packagaes or features that you cant use if you use openbox window manager? | 06:53 |
| iceroot | bastid_raZor: sure | 06:53 |
| bastid_raZor | iceroot: okay, thanks. | 06:53 |

| mickster04 | Xcell: Piranah you two are trolling, niether supporting nor asking for help | 07:49 |
| mgj | I'm using fluxbox. Before i upgraded to 10.04 nm-applet (the network manager) would save passwords for wireless networks, but after upgrading it does not save anything. I have to type in the password every time i connect. How do i fix this? | 07:50 |
| rww | Xcell: If you don't have an actual support question, please consider taking your paranoia to #ubuntu-offtopic, where it will be embraced and happy and generally not distracting. | 07:50 |
| mickster04 | chouchou: Long Term Support | 07:50 |
| Xcell | pay attention people. | 07:50 |
| chouchou | ? | 07:50 |
| chouchou | I don't get it | 07:50 |
| Piranah | mickster04, fine help if ya have an answer i dont meen to troll | 07:50 |
| mickster04 | chouchou: what's not to get, it will be supported longer than a normal release | 07:50 |
| jjkdai | I have forgotten the password for a rar file,Is there a way to unrar it? | 07:50 |
| Piranah | likr i said 8.x solid | 07:50 |
| CogitoErgoSam | Here's the deal. Even though 10.04 is the LTS release, you shouldn't expect it to work perfect right out of the gate. The point of it is that it will be supported longer down the road. If you need a stable release RIGHT NOW, that's what the previous LTS is for, and the reason that their lifespans overlap. | 07:50 |
| Piranah | 9.x iffy 10.04 is just killin me | 07:50 |
| === guestt15SO3 is now known as jagroo | ||
| Piranah | CogitoErgoSam, agreed | 07:51 |
| mickster04 | Piranah: you are not helping or askig for help. move on | 07:51 |
| Piranah | and sorry for ranting | 07:51 |
| Karthik2 | Piranah: I think there is lot of bugs in 10.04 realese | 07:51 |
| maco | CogitoErgoSam: correction: you shouldnt expect *any* software to work perfectly, as all software has bugs, period | 07:51 |

| maco | bob2134555: then help fix them | 07:51 |

| clotterm | hi. i need to set up a server using ttyS0 (serial port) since it does not have any graphic card. is there a change to do it like in use, simply adding a console=ttyS0,38400n8 ? | 07:52 |
| mickster04 | Piranah: nope.... | 07:52 |
| Piranah | dam | 07:52 |
| Piranah | :( | 07:52 |
| Xcell | emailme @ johnnytech1@gmail.com. i will fill you in , you have been had. ill prove it. | 07:52 |
| chouchou | that is why I want to find out, what does hte TLS stands for | 07:52 |
| CogitoErgoSam | err granted | 07:52 |
| rww | chouchou: TLS is Transport Layer Security, a method of encrypting connections | 07:52 |

| maco | chouchou: you mentioned proftpd and TLS | 07:53 |
| mgj | I'm using fluxbox. Before i upgraded to 10.04 nm-applet (the network manager) would save passwords for wireless networks, but after upgrading it does not save anything. I have to type in the password every time i connect. How do i fix this? | 07:53 |
| maco | david-w: sudo do-release-upgrade | 07:53 |
| mickster04 | Piranah: thatway you can upgrade/roll back without having to reformat and backup stuff inbetween | 07:53 |
| * Piranah Thanks all... and sorry for the rant just a lil disapointed | 07:53 | |
| chouchou | yes | 07:53 |
| ubottu | Xcell: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 07:53 |
| maco | david-w: thatll move you up by one release | 07:53 |
| PlainFlavored | so i'm trying to install ubuntu, i taped the live cd to my computer, now what | 07:53 |

| Xcell | you folks are part and parcel of the NWO= new world order, pay attention\ | 07:54 |
| david-w | OK to the latest I think I am on 9.4 the now | 07:54 |
| gogeta | lord_koala: i dunno why yours refuses to change rez | 07:54 |
| maco | david-w: skipping releases is not supported unless youre going from 8.04 (because it was also an lts) | 07:54 |
| CogitoErgoSam | don't feed the trolls | 07:54 |
| lord_koala | gogeta Probably my fault.. Most of the time I am ot sure what I am doing with the command line. | 07:54 |
| mickster04 | Pici: if you're about xcell is repeatdly off topic and won't behave, could you kick them? | 07:54 |
| CogitoErgoSam | just /ignore and move on | 07:54 |
| maco | Xcell: stay on topic or leave | 07:55 |
| david-w | CogitoErgoSam: who is a troll | 07:55 |
| lord_koala | gogate Thanks anyway :) | 07:55 |
| gogeta | lord_koala: ill laugh if this is installed | 07:55 |
| gogeta | lord_koala: try xrander | 07:55 |
| rww | mickster04: He isn't. #ubuntu-ops is generally a better way to find a channel operator. | 07:55 |
| lord_koala | gogate apt-get install xrander? | 07:55 |
| mickster04 | rww: good point.., | 07:55 |
| gogeta | lord_koala: naa if its not there nv | 07:55 |
| Piranah | mickster04, in your opinion should I let it ride for a week or 2 in hops of an update to fix the lockups soo many are exp ? Or should I say forget it and format and go back to 8.x or 9.x ? | 07:56 |
| mickster04 | Piranah: i recon wait it out, i havent had a single problem with 10.04 so im sorry you have, but i think maybe wait | 07:56 |
| Piranah | mickster04, ok thanks again and sorry for the rant :) Im norm not soo trollish lol | 07:57 |

| misc-- | hi all - quick question, does latest ubuntu release (lucid) use pulse audio by default? | 07:57 |
| rww | misc--: yes | 07:57 |
| misc-- | oh darn | 07:58 |
| crash2108 | How do I unlock my main partition in gparted without a LiveCD? I remember you could select how to resize it and the computer would restart into gparted and resize the partitions. | 07:58 |
| lord_koala | gogate Nope.. only writes +.. ctrl alt doesnt seemd to be doing anything | 07:58 |
| rww | crash2108: You can't, and that hasn't ever been an Ubuntu feature that I remember. | 07:58 |
| misc-- | didn't ubuntu not use pulse audio at some stage (9.10?)? | 07:58 |
| crash2108 | Pretty sure I did that around Christmas. | 07:58 |
| corpse | has anyone gotten dreamweaver cs4 to work in ubuntu? | 07:59 |
| maco | mmm nope | 07:59 |
| CloudLevi | Anyone know how I can mask my address in IRC? =-=;;; | 07:59 |
| rww | misc--: Ubuntu has used pulseaudio for rather a long time. | 07:59 |
| rww | ubottu: cloak | CloudLevi | 07:59 |
| maco | crash2108: you cant resize the partition you're running from unless you're using LVM. you'll destroy it | 07:59 |
| ubottu | CloudLevi: Want to hide your IP while connected to freenode? See http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#cloaks More information available in #freenode | 07:59 |
| misc-- | rww: oh ok fair enough | 07:59 |
| maco | misc--: 2007 was the last time it lacked it | 07:59 |
| misc-- | ah I see | 07:59 |
| zopht | hey gays | 07:59 |
| CloudLevi | ubottu: That'll keep them from seeing "CloudLevi@xxx.x.xx.xxx.x.x." (I know that had no pattern)? | 07:59 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 08:00 |
| maco | zopht: and straights? | 08:00 |
| gogeta | lord_koala: lol did that work | 08:00 |
| Jordan_U | misc--: What problem are you having with pulseaudio? | 08:00 |
| maco | CloudLevi: yes | 08:00 |
| CloudLevi | well I didn't see anyone punch in a command =-=; | 08:00 |
| CloudLevi | maco: Thanks | 08:00 |
| lord_koala | gogeta Nope.. only writes +.. ctrl alt doesnt seemd to be doing anything | 08:00 |
| maco | CloudLevi: itll replace with @unaffiliated/CloudLevi | 08:00 |
| zopht | have someone play lol | 08:00 |
| maco | CloudLevi: rww did it | 08:00 |
| gogeta | lord_koala: stubbern pc | 08:00 |
| GeekSquid | CloudLevi: it is called cloaking, if your IRC nick is registered you can ask in #freenode and someone will cloak you, see my info it says unaffiliated/fccf instead of my IP | 08:00 |
| maco | zopht: huh? | 08:00 |
| CloudLevi | maco: Aheh...no... problem there. It isn't the IPa I need gone it's the NAME. | 08:00 |
| gogeta | lord_koala: i suppose you could shut down the framebuffer all together | 08:01 |
| CloudLevi | GeekSquid: That'll get rid of the name AND IPa? | 08:01 |
| zopht | i am a newplayer | 08:01 |
| maco | CloudLevi: itll over the entirety of what comes after the @ | 08:01 |
| Xcell | for the folks to whom dont know me, dont boot me, but, trust me, maco is govmt trash, k, i will in the future in ops figure this out, maco shut up., i have you figured out, god bless folks.. | 08:01 |
| crdlb | CloudLevi: what 'name'? | 08:01 |
| maco | zopht: player? ubuntu's not a game... | 08:01 |
| CloudLevi | crdlb: /whois me. | 08:01 |
| rww | CloudLevi: The stuff before the @ is set in your IRC client. Which one are you using, we can give you instructions? | 08:01 |
| misc-- | Jordan_U: Actually none at this stage, I was just more curious than anything else really. Working fine in my current version (9.04) | 08:01 |
| CloudLevi | rww: Pidgin | 08:01 |
| mgj | I'm using fluxbox. Before i upgraded to 10.04 nm-applet (the network manager) would save passwords for wireless networks, but after upgrading it does not save anything. I have to type in the password every time i connect. How do i fix this? | 08:01 |
| misc-- | Jordan_U: was thinknig about giving oss v4 a try though | 08:01 |
| rww | you would have to be using the one I don't remember ;P | 08:02 |
| rww | one sec | 08:02 |
| CloudLevi | rww: I need the name before the @ symbol completely and securely gone 100% -permanently-... bottom line, I want to be totally anonymous. | 08:02 |
| crash2108 | Yeah, gparted has a live USB. It is non destructive, though, right? | 08:02 |
| zopht | i know | 08:02 |
| crdlb | CloudLevi: basically, you need to edit the account settings in pidgin | 08:02 |
| karthik | Hello | 08:02 |
| === JimmyJ is now known as JimmyJ|zz | ||
| CloudLevi | rww: IPa doesn't bother me. Aaand what part of the account settings do I edit? | 08:02 |
| GeekSquid | CloudLevi: you are offtopic, the solution to be anonymous is to cloak ... move it to #freenode | 08:03 |
| rww | CloudLevi: one sec, I'm looking | 08:03 |
| maco | GeekSquid: no | 08:03 |
| maco | GeekSquid: CloudLevi wants the n= removed, not the cloak removed | 08:03 |
| maco | GeekSquid: er, not the IP removed | 08:03 |
| rww | n= doesn't exist any more ;P | 08:03 |
| maco | rww: ok fine whatever took its place | 08:03 |
| CloudLevi | GeekSquid: Has -nothing- to do with the server or IPa, I want the -name- gone. "CloudLevi" | 08:04 |
| gogeta | lord_koala: at least the wifi worked not to get that thing to change its rez | 08:04 |
| crdlb | CloudLevi: so go to the accounts editor, modify the freenode or irc.ubuntu.com account, go to the advanced tab and set username | 08:05 |
| rww | CloudLevi: Go to your Accounts window in Pidgin, click the IRC account, click Modify, click the Advanced tab, put something different in the "Username" field | 08:05 |
| crdlb | heh | 08:05 |
| rww | CloudLevi: you probably need to sign out of IRC first, iirc | 08:05 |
| CloudLevi | rww: ...Seriously.... /Whois me... | 08:05 |
| rww | CloudLevi: I have. | 08:05 |
| gogeta | lord_koala: hehehe | 08:06 |
| CloudLevi | rww: That IPa...that says "CloudLevi@[Insert IPa]" Does -NOT- change unless I sign into another computer account... | 08:06 |
| crdlb | CloudLevi: by default, pidgin is using your local username, but you can set it to whatever you want | 08:06 |
| crdlb | both he and I have explained how to change it | 08:06 |
| rww | CloudLevi: the part before the @ sign is controlled by the input box that crdlb and I directed you to. The part after the @ sign is cloakable, as ubottu explained. | 08:07 |
| CloudLevi | crdlb: That did -nothing- | 08:07 |
| crdlb | CloudLevi: it does not take effect immediately | 08:07 |
| `blackmk4`linux | how do you add to the MOTD ubuntu shoes when logging in via ssh | 08:07 |

| 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).

| kajo | I'm googling it, and thinking that perhaps it's a power problem? | 08:37 |

| costre | chouchou, That makes it 110% more difficult :) because your computer doesn't have it's own IP | 08:43 |
| llutz | kajo: sounds like a broken usb-chipset on drive. try reconnecting the drive | 08:43 |
| gogeta | your inet adder | 08:43 |
| theadmin | kajo: Don't open anything! Or it all will blow up!!! AAAAAAAAAAAH!... He means GParted, of course :/ | 08:43 |
| EgYPaRaDoX | GParted, I wanted to check whether the drive is unallocated or not | 08:43 |
| gogeta | theadmin: only dells blow up | 08:43 |
| kajo | theadmin, he told me to open gparted, and then I asked a question about what I was doing with it, and then he said don't open it. I didn't know if he was saying don't open my harddrive within gparted, or don't open the program, or what, or why. | 08:44 |
| theadmin | gogeta: o_O | 08:44 |
| kajo | he doesn't explain his statements, just kind of gives commands, so I feel a bit in the dark is all. | 08:44 |
| theadmin | kajo: Well, you can't "open" a hard drive :/ | 08:44 |
| llutz | kajo: use "sudo fdisk -l" to get that info, no danger to f*k something up ;) | 08:44 |

| kajo | theadmin, it's not completely alien to hear people refer to accessing files as 'opening' them, since you often click an icon which looks like clicking an icon to open a program. | 08:44 |

| gehiks | thx Orteko | 09:49 |
| AhmedBH | Just a right click under the folder you wanna share and then mark for users (if they can delete or remove or edit the folders) its upto you and then click share folder and after that 'sudo smbpasswd -a username' and enter a new password and thats it | 09:49 |
| AhmedBH | you will see that folder all over the ethernet PC's you have connected to | 09:49 |
| AhmedBH | Even on windows PC | 09:49 |

| AhmedBH | NO no its not connected by the way or i woulda know .. | 09:55 |
| ikonia | midgt_sadhu: do you have an ati video card ? | 09:55 |
| AhmedBH | Yes i did asked because i wanna just close them :) Disable ? | 09:55 |
| onetinsoldier | lsof = list open files | 09:55 |
| midgt_sadhu | ikona: nope an old nvidia that has been running ubuntu for a while | 09:56 |
| llutz | AhmedBH: ports are "open" if something listens on them | 09:56 |
| o2oo | onetinsoldier, there's still one question | 09:56 |
| AhmedBH | No no it wasnt anything on it...nothing appeared | 09:56 |
| onetinsoldier | o2oo: yes? | 09:57 |
| llutz | AhmedBH: so no need to "close" anything then | 09:57 |
| AhmedBH | What (LISTEN) means ? when you check for connected for example IDLE ? | 09:57 |
| AhmedBH | oH.. okay :) Thanks llutz | 09:57 |

| o2oo | onetinsoldier, I am writting a script. I want to open a terminal and then let all following commands output to the new terminal | 09:57 |
| enav | why my SSH connection says "Connection reset by peer" ?????? | 09:57 |
| llutz | o2oo: "xterm -e command &" | 09:59 |
| ikonia | enav: the box you are connecting to is cutting you off | 09:59 |
| ikonia | enav: normally a timeout value | 09:59 |
| onetinsoldier | o2oo: well... i don't know my bash scripting really. might try something like 'exec gnome-terminal' | 09:59 |
| SwedeMike | or NAT session timeout, or any other of 5-10 issues. | 09:59 |
| onetinsoldier | o2oo: ok, looks like llutz helped you out there. try what he said | 09:59 |
| enav | ikonia so that mean i need to gait the grace time to try again???? | 09:59 |
| ikonia | enav: what ? | 10:00 |
| enav | graceTime | 10:00 |
| ikonia | enav: thats normally for login | 10:00 |
| o2oo | llutz, it failed | 10:00 |
| jatt | how do I put the (minimize, maximize, ...) buttons on the right permanently? I tried with a gconf command that was given to me in this channel, but after reboot, the buttons are still on the left. | 10:00 |
| enav | ikonia how can i solve this problem? | 10:00 |
| llutz | !controls | 10:01 |
| ubottu | In Lucid, the minimize, maximize, and close buttons have been moved to the left side. For more information, please see http://alturl.com/b6ja | To move them back to the right-hand side, see http://alturl.com/x5d6 | 10:01 |
| llutz | jatt: ^ | 10:01 |
| ikonia | enav: work it through, find out if it's the remote server, or a network device inbetween | 10:01 |
| AhmedBH | how do i check my IP by terminal beside going to any site ? | 10:02 |
| ikonia | AhmedBH: ifcon | 10:02 |
| ikonia | AhmedBH: ifconfig | 10:02 |
| usuario | hi | 10:02 |
| llutz | o2oo: then use a different terminal like gnome-terminal or whatever you like | 10:02 |
| ikonia | AhmedBH: or ip addr | 10:02 |
| yorick | please help | 10:02 |
| onetinsoldier | AhmedBH: ip addr show | 10:02 |
| enav | ikonia i can connect to 1 account but not to another | 10:02 |
| AhmedBH | just a minute | 10:02 |
| ikonia | enav: that makes no sense based on what I've just said | 10:02 |
| jatt | llutz: I have done that several times, yes the buttons are moved to the right instantly but after reboot, they are still on the left. | 10:02 |
| deepsouthdiv | ok end to all phone discussions do you realize that the iphone os is sold on one phone by one service provider in the US | 10:02 |
| jatt | how do I make the changes permanent_ | 10:02 |
| deepsouthdiv | and still holds a large market share | 10:02 |
| o2oo | llutz, I am writing a script that nautilus use. | 10:03 |
| ikonia | deepsouthdiv: no-one is talking about phones, please stop, this is ubuntu support | 10:03 |

| zigwoggler | hey, if i install ubuntu side by side next to windows vista, will it slow down and games i want to play on vista? | 10:03 |
| enav | ikonia yes | 10:03 |
| ikonia | zigwoggler: no | 10:03 |
| deepsouthdiv | lol sorry got on the wrong chat | 10:03 |
| zigwoggler | ikonia thanks | 10:03 |

| yorick | hmm I think my right speaker is broken | 10:03 |
| enav | ikonia im running a virtualmachine terminal and virtual amchine are in the same net | 10:03 |
| ikonia | t3ll0: what do you want ? | 10:04 |
| david-w | do you see the logs site it is down for me | 10:04 |
| ikonia | enav: what are the two different accounts ? | 10:04 |
| AhmedBH | 192.168.1.26 @_@ i didnt meant by local ip by router | 10:04 |
| ikonia | enav: what are you doing witht he two different accounts | 10:04 |
| ikonia | AhmedBH: you can't then, as the natting is done post ubuntu, so ubuntu doesn'tk now about it | 10:04 |
| t3ll0 | hehe | 10:04 |
| ikonia | t3ll0: what ? | 10:04 |
| AhmedBH | Okay i guess my router shows it thats way better :) | 10:04 |
| enav | ikonia account 1 is my account accoutn 2 is the webmaster account | 10:05 |
| t3ll0 | !lfi index.php?p= include_com | 10:05 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 10:05 |
| o2oo | llutz, I want the script to open a new terminal and let the commandline after to output to the new terminal. | 10:05 |
| o2oo | hi, I want the script to open a new terminal and let the commandline after to output to the new terminal. who knows? | 10:05 |
| ikonia | enav: when you login are you "doing stuff" eg: or is one idle allowing it to time out | 10:05 |
| enav | ikonia my accout is working perfect but after reboot the server webmaster account is not working | 10:05 |
| karrot | okay, I have a problem where when I transfer a file over my LAN from my home server that after about 5 minutes the connection closes. I can't ssh in or anything afterward for about 5 minutes... anyway I installed iptraf on the server and hooked it up to amonitor and watched when the connection stopped, I would then hit a keyboard button and the connection would resume. I'm not sure why it freezes like it does, I also have th syslog file for | 10:05 |
| karrot | it now, can anyone please help? | 10:05 |
| AhmedBH | actually i installed apache2 and everything works fine but when i connect it over IP it redirect to my local router which is provided by my ISP what do i do @_@ | 10:05 |
| iceroot | karrot: i told you already to look at /var/log/syslog and so on | 10:06 |
| iceroot | karrot: or post it to pastebin | 10:06 |
| Viking667 | bah. | 10:06 |
| karrot | iceroot: I looked at it, but I can't really see what is wrong, and I posted it to pastebin if you'd like to see | 10:06 |
| zigwoggler | if i install ubuntu side by side enxt to vista will it have any major effects on either os? (eg. slow either down) | 10:06 |
| Viking667 | Seems the silly machine I'm trying to install on won't even look at a USB drive in boot phase. | 10:06 |
| enav | ikonia this is the output http://pastebin.com/izGmf6xe | 10:06 |
| iceroot | zigwoggler: no | 10:06 |
| zigwoggler | iceroot: thanks | 10:07 |
| Viking667 | and without a CDROM drive, it's ... problematic trying to get a network install running on it. | 10:07 |
| karrot | there is something about no subnet declaration for eth0 | 10:07 |
| ikonia | enav: looks like that account is not autheorized to connect | 10:07 |
| t3ll0 | !sql reagir.php?num= reagir.php?num= | 10:07 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 10:07 |
| enav | ikonia try "sudo su" with webmaster account 6 min before and server say somthing like "this insident will be reported" | 10:08 |
| ikonia | enav: you should not be doing that | 10:09 |
| enav | ikonia i think the server block the account but im not sure | 10:09 |
| zigwoggler | 1 last question gues | 10:09 |
| zigwoggler | will it slow ubuntu down in anyway if i install it onto an external hard disk? | 10:09 |
| ikonia | zigwoggler: yes | 10:09 |
| Orteko | zigwoggler: depends on how the external drive is connected | 10:09 |
| zigwoggler | usb 2.0 | 10:09 |
| erUSUL | zigwoggler: usb has low transfer speeds conpared to pata/sata | 10:09 |
| Orteko | if it is just plugged in by usb, it will be slower | 10:09 |
| zigwoggler | hmm, i think ill just stick to sata | 10:10 |
| zigwoggler | thanks guys | 10:10 |
| Orteko | if you want to have it external then esata is the best option | 10:10 |
| mgj | I'm using fluxbox. Before i upgraded to 10.04 nm-applet (the network manager) would save passwords for wireless networks, but after upgrading it does not save anything. I have to type in the password every time i connect. How do i fix this? | 10:10 |
| enav | ikonia anyway this is a learning server im doing all this to practice and understand how this works | 10:10 |
| Hoppi | Heya peoples :) | 10:11 |
| Hoppi | I need some help getting Ubuntu Lucid working ._. | 10:12 |
| d_u_b_s | Hoppi, hi | 10:12 |
| blackratdog | !ask | 10:12 |
| 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. :-) | 10:12 |
| Orteko | enav: "This incident will be reported" is commonly because A: you've typed in the wrong password when using sudo, or B: because you are specifically prevented from doing that command by sudo | 10:12 |
| `blackmk4`linux | chances of do-release-upgrade failing on a headless server? | 10:12 |
| `blackmk4`linux | i don't have physical access to the box | 10:13 |
| `blackmk4`linux | so that would suck | 10:13 |
| Orteko | `blackmk4`linux: what release are you upgrading from? | 10:13 |
| onetinsoldier | `blackmk4`linux: that means the chances that it will fail.... are high | 10:13 |
| erUSUL | murphy's law | 10:13 |

| jo-erlend | I tried to set a keyboard shortcut to maximize windows in ubuntu lucid, but nothing happens when I use it. That used to work. Can someone confirm that it's no longer working, or tell me how to make it so again? | 10:14 |
| `blackmk4`linux | oops | 10:14 |
| Orteko | `blackmk4`linux: you will *probably* be ok, however it's always iffy doing a network upgrade with no physical access to the box | 10:14 |
| `blackmk4`linux | so karmic to lucid | 10:14 |
| Orteko | i'm not aware of any specific gotchas from 9.10 to 10.04 | 10:15 |
| `blackmk4`linux | :o | 10:15 |
| chouchou | hi all, I am trying to install phpmyadmin, I still have 404 error even thought I have selected it to point to apache2,.//// | 10:15 |
| `blackmk4`linux | will it make any changes if i am up to date on all of my packages? | 10:15 |
| chouchou | what solution can you preconise for me pls ? | 10:15 |
| Hoppi | d_u_b_s, oops sorry about that! I got distracted for a moment! | 10:15 |
| Orteko | best to make sure that all packages are up to date beforehand | 10:16 |
| Hoppi | d_u_b_s, but yeah basically when I try to boot Ubuntu on this laptop, live or from the hard disk, it reaches the point where it should start X, and hangs dead | 10:16 |
| `blackmk4`linux | well what i mean is what will it change | 10:16 |
| onetinsoldier | sure it will | 10:16 |
| chouchou | any answer for me pls | 10:16 |
| chouchou | ? | 10:16 |
| Hoppi | d_u_b_s, I was considering switching to Crunchbang or something and seeing if I have better luck, but I'll persevere with this just for now! :) | 10:17 |
| `blackmk4`linux | chouchou | 10:17 |
| Orteko | `blackmk4`linux: will be newer package versions than what are available in 9.10 | 10:17 |
| chouchou | ys | 10:17 |
| `blackmk4`linux | ah ok | 10:17 |
| onetinsoldier | `blackmk4`linux: that lsb_release -a command won't show karmic anymore ;-) | 10:17 |
| `blackmk4`linux | ;) | 10:17 |
| === tuxlinux_ is now known as tuxlinux | ||
| `blackmk4`linux | chouchou | 10:17 |
| Orteko | realistically the best to do is backup beforehand and cross your fingers :) | 10:17 |
| chouchou | yes, ,I am listening | 10:17 |
| d_u_b_s | Hoppi, did you check that the iso you downloaded is ok ? (check md5sum) | 10:18 |
| Orteko | it's never fun to have to do a network upgrade with no access to the box | 10:18 |
| Hoppi | d_u_b_s, erm, no, but it does work absolutely fine on my friend's desktop | 10:18 |
| `blackmk4`linux | do sudo ln -s /usr/share/phpmyadmin /var/www/phpmyadmin | 10:18 |
| `blackmk4`linux | and try going to it again | 10:18 |
| gehiks | I made a script to mount distant filesystems through SSHFS. The purpose of the script is to select which filesystem to mount using read and if. The script launches, ask me which filesystem to mount and when I press enter the terminal closes whithout asking my password and of course without mounting. When I execute the script from a terminal it's OK but not when I use a launcher. Does someone have an hint? | 10:18 |
| Hoppi | I'm booting it off of a pendrive | 10:18 |
| djiezes | How can I get sound for 2 applications at the same time? Ubuntu 10.04 64bit. | 10:19 |
| chouchou | `blackmk4`linux: still, it didn't solve anything | 10:20 |
| `blackmk4`linux | what is the output of locate phpmyadmin | 10:20 |
| wildbat | gehiks, how do we know about your script w/o seeing it XD | 10:21 |
| d_u_b_s | Hoppi, anything peculiar about your hardware? | 10:21 |
| `blackmk4`linux | i am on the box that i am upgrading... let's hope it doesn't die | 10:21 |
| `blackmk4`linux | ;3 | 10:21 |
| Hoppi | d_u_b_s, well, it's an older laptop (Dell latitude d400) so the screen is a small version of the old laptop size | 10:22 |
| Hoppi | d_u_b_s, it's not widescreen | 10:22 |
| aaron_liuj | Error: git version 1.6.3.3 < minimum required 1.6.6 | 10:22 |
| gehiks | sorry wildbat, I'm not really used to IRC... should I paste my script here? | 10:22 |
| wildbat | !pb | gehiks | 10:22 |
| ubottu | gehiks: For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://tinyurl.com/imagebin | !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic. | 10:22 |
| chouchou | `blackmk4`linux: running http://localhost/phpmyadmin/ result in 404 | 10:23 |
| d_u_b_s | Hoppi, shouldn't prevent x from starting, weird... | 10:23 |
| `blackmk4`linux | chouchou | 10:23 |
| `blackmk4`linux | what irc client do you have | 10:23 |
| chouchou | yes | 10:23 |
| chouchou | chatzilla | 10:24 |
| `blackmk4`linux | can you tell me the output of the command whereis phpmyadmin | 10:24 |
| Hoppi | d_u_b_s, I know, odd isn't it? | 10:24 |
| chouchou | hehe, `blackmk4`linux I am not a bot, I am a human | 10:24 |
| `blackmk4`linux | yeah i know lol | 10:24 |
| Hoppi | d_u_b_s, like I say it works on the desktop, but X just dies on my laptop | 10:24 |
| Hoppi | it doesn't even go to a prompt or anything on the F keys | 10:25 |
| Orteko | Hoppi: so you can't even ctrl+alt+f1? | 10:25 |
| Orteko | it's frozen solid? | 10:25 |
| Hoppi | nope, nothing | 10:25 |
| Hoppi | yup | 10:25 |
| Orteko | hmm | 10:25 |
| Orteko | do you know what graphics chipset the laptop uses? | 10:25 |
| Hoppi | no, I was told it was just Intel though | 10:26 |
| Hoppi | I mean I could try downloading the iso again, but like, it did work perfectly on the desktop | 10:26 |
| Hoppi | and I managed to get Zenwalk to boot fine | 10:26 |
| Orteko | yeah, it sounds like it's unlikely an iso issue | 10:26 |
| chouchou | `blackmk4`linux: here is it | 10:27 |
| chouchou | /etc/phpmyadmin /usr/share/phpmyadmin | 10:27 |
| `blackmk4`linux | ok good | 10:27 |
| `blackmk4`linux | did you run ln-s /usr/share/phpmyadmin /var/www/phpmyadmin | 10:28 |
| Orteko | Hoppi: try rebooting and booting directly to a console | 10:28 |
| `blackmk4`linux | ln -s* | 10:28 |
| chouchou | yes | 10:28 |
| Rmorgan | whats the cli command to display temps? | 10:28 |
| Hoppi | Orteko, yeah I did that, but I didn't know what the best thing to do was once I got there | 10:28 |
| Orteko | I think you should just be able to hold down shift when it starts to boot grub and it should give you a menu | 10:28 |
| `blackmk4`linux | rmorgan | 10:28 |
| chouchou | I did all that and it outputed a long listing | 10:28 |
| viesturs | hi everyody - congrulations with 10.4 LTS release .... | 10:28 |
| wildbat | Rmorgan, sensors | 10:28 |
| `blackmk4`linux | sudo apt-get install lm-sensors | 10:28 |
| Rmorgan | lm-sensors? | 10:28 |
| Orteko | ok, did it eventually boot to a text login screen? | 10:28 |
| `blackmk4`linux | then run update-sensors | 10:28 |
| `blackmk4`linux | and then sensors | 10:28 |
| Hoppi | Orteko, although I do remember something about overriding RandR stuff with ... xorg.conf entries? | 10:28 |
| Hoppi | like, it can be done? | 10:28 |
| viesturs | one problem - i have situation, that i have videos - 30 sec long - they all are in diffrent sound level | 10:29 |
| gehiks | wildbat, ubottu http://paste.ubuntu.com/433255/ | 10:29 |
| onetinsoldier | hello viesturs :) | 10:29 |
| Orteko | you can indeed do that | 10:29 |
| Rmorgan | `blackmk4`linux: thankyou | 10:29 |
| Orteko | but unless it's an odd chipset it shouldn't be needed | 10:29 |
| viesturs | for example i set medium sound output for my hdmi | 10:29 |
| chouchou | `blackmk4`linux: here is what i have | 10:29 |
| viesturs | but one videeo is quiet, second loud | 10:29 |
| chouchou | oot@ubuntu:/# ls -s /usr/share/phpmyadmin /var/www/phpmyadmin | 10:29 |
| chouchou | ls: cannot access /var/www/phpmyadmin: No such file or directory | 10:29 |
| chouchou | /usr/share/phpmyadmin: | 10:29 |
| chouchou | total 1120 | 10:29 |
| FloodBot3 | chouchou: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 10:29 |
| Orteko | if you get to a shell session, run lspci and try to find what the exact graphics chipset is | 10:29 |
| AnxiousNut | i just installed nvidia driver on my other pc, now GDM restarts when i choose my account! How can i Uninstall the driver? please help | 10:29 |
| `blackmk4`linux | doh | 10:29 |
| viesturs | is there way how to make them +/- the same audio level ? | 10:29 |
| chouchou | ok | 10:29 |
| `blackmk4`linux | do this first | 10:29 |
| `blackmk4`linux | sudo mkdir /var/www/phpmyadmin | 10:29 |
| chouchou | ok | 10:30 |
| `blackmk4`linux | then do the ln -s thing | 10:30 |
| enav | what is the meaning of system shell???? | 10:30 |
| llutz | chouchou: ln -s not ls -l | 10:30 |
| onetinsoldier | Hoppi: there is an issue with some Intel Integrated Chipset with Lucid 10.04, see here --> http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/1004#Intel%208xx%20X%20freezes/crashes | 10:30 |
| llutz | chouchou: ln -s not ls -s | 10:30 |
| `blackmk4`linux | he's right | 10:30 |
| SashkaTuchka | helloy | 10:30 |
| chouchou | please post the full command again | 10:31 |
| Hoppi | oh thanks onetinsoldier I'll check that out :) | 10:31 |
| `blackmk4`linux | ln -s /usr/share/phpmyadmin /var/www/phpmyadmin | 10:31 |
| onetinsoldier | Hoppi: ok, roger. good luck | 10:32 |
| `blackmk4`linux | sudo ln -s /usr/share/phpmyadmin /var/www/phpmyadmin | 10:32 |
| Hoppi | yeah I think this is the one for me! I just need to pick a workaround! lol | 10:32 |
| onetinsoldier | roger | 10:32 |
| Orteko | yep, sounds like it describes your problem exactly :) | 10:33 |
| AnxiousNut | how can i disable nvidia driver from shell? causing gdm to crash!!! | 10:33 |
| wildbat | gehiks, yours scripts looks design for cli. not the gui | 10:33 |
| chouchou | `blackmk4`linux: thanks a lot ,it works | 10:33 |
| Rmorgan | ive just changed the memory in my ion box and now im getting init errors on startup for udevtrigger and networking main | 10:33 |
| `blackmk4`linux | have fun, i had the same problem | 10:33 |
| `blackmk4`linux | i dunno why they haven't fixed that yet | 10:33 |
| chouchou | where do I locate3 the var/www folder ? | 10:33 |
| Hoppi | Thank you Orteko as well, I'm really glad there's a workaround! | 10:33 |
| gehiks | what do you mean wildbat? | 10:33 |
| `blackmk4`linux | what? | 10:34 |
| Hoppi | Lucid looks so awesome, I really didn't wanna switch to Crunchbang or Mint! | 10:34 |
| antonio_ | hi, is it possible scroll processes with top? | 10:34 |
| onetinsoldier | Hoppi: :-) | 10:34 |
| wildbat | gehiks, it don't have dialogs for entering anything | 10:35 |
| onetinsoldier | antonio_: you might want to try 'htop' | 10:35 |
| viesturs | AnxiousNut: you can use safe mode for gdm to figure out problem via GUI | 10:35 |
| antonio_ | ok | 10:35 |
| antonio_ | thanks | 10:36 |
| viesturs | antonio_: use htop - extra features aviable | 10:36 |
| gehiks | wildbat, well there's a list of the keys to use at the beginning of the script | 10:36 |
| enav | how can i chroot a freaking ssh user???? | 10:36 |
| onetinsoldier | antonio_: you're welcome | 10:36 |
| chouchou | pls how do I know if php is installed on which version ? | 10:36 |
| gehiks | e.g. typing 1 should mount ITARF | 10:36 |
| `blackmk4`linux | php -v | 10:37 |
| Cube`` | i like the new theme in 10.04, but i dont like that the window buttons are on the left side - any way to fix this? any derivative theme? | 10:37 |
| viesturs | enav: if i rember correctly sshd supports chrooting in configuration - chec out if i am not wrong | 10:37 |
| wildbat | gehiks, you don't have read for password thou ~ | 10:37 |
| AnxiousNut | viesturs, i cant reach it, it crashes! | 10:37 |
| onetinsoldier | Cube``: one easy quick way is to change themes | 10:37 |

| chouchou | something is happening, I run this command to install lamp | 10:38 |
| chouchou | sudo apt-get install lamp-server^ | 10:38 |
| onetinsoldier | Cube``: you're welcome | 10:38 |
| viesturs | enav read about sshd configuration - if i remeber correctly you can make chrooted access from here also | 10:38 |
| chouchou | but using shell seems not to find php | 10:38 |
| enav | viesturs im reading and testing a ubuntu article about sshd but it does not works at all | 10:39 |
| `blackmk4`linux | what is the output of whereis php | 10:39 |
| viesturs | chouchou: i better prefer apache + postgres + php installation manually, not with lamp | 10:39 |
| chouchou | The program 'php' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing: apt-get install php5-cli | 10:39 |
| viesturs | chouchou: there are CGI and CLI versions for php | 10:39 |
| viesturs | try apt-get install php-cli | 10:39 |
| chouchou | ok | 10:39 |
| viesturs | and then from command line php will be aviable | 10:40 |
| chouchou | won't it interfere with the previous version of php installed? | 10:40 |
| AnxiousNut | thanks viesturs for trying to help!!! it was "nvidia-uninstall"! | 10:41 |

| viesturs | okey - one more time - can anybody help me on this problem: i have for example 5 videos, each 30 sec long.

| Orteko | circuitman: edit->preferences->advanced->network | 11:08 |
| arand | Heiser: More likely in #ubuntu-de ? | 11:09 |
| Orteko | and then you want the "connection settings" | 11:09 |
| Orteko | which should let you put in a proxy | 11:09 |
| justntime | can't figure out why my install of ubuntu isn't responding to any input.. | 11:09 |
| Heiser | arand: probably, thanks | 11:09 |
| circuitman | Orteko: ya,i know that.but about the proxy address,url and other things | 11:10 |

| circuitman | Orteko:i think they dont have one | 11:15 |

| chouchou | any answer pls ? | 11:16 |
| Orteko | all it will do is cache information that you've already accessed, and that information will probably still be in your firefox cache next time anyway | 11:16 |

| hmw | chouchou: this command creates an entry in /etc/passwd, there you will find that wrong home directory | 11:25 |
| wildbat | JodaZ, if it* can create GPT it should be handle it w/o problems | 11:25 |
| JodaZ | wildbat, seems it can't | 11:25 |
| AhmedBH | hmw: Directory ? wheres that now | 11:25 |
| hmw | AhmedBH: you asked how to make a home folder "password protected"? | 11:25 |
| JodaZ | wildbat, there also seems to be no indication of if the disk is mbr or guid | 11:25 |
| chouchou | ok | 11:25 |
| hmw | AhmedBH: perhaps rephrase your question | 11:26 |
| AhmedBH | Yes thats what i asked | 11:26 |

| xyz123 | mknarr: Thanks for trying to help me though! :-) | 11:27 |

| Chrysalis | My master sound volume does not work, nor does sound preferences. I can get playback if I open up an application say VLC. However, if I place my computer in standby then no sound can be heard. This problem appeared when I upgraded my ubuntu to the newest version of 10.04 LTS. I am a new user of ubuntu. Would a reinstallation of the sound modules fix it? | 11:29 |

| hmw | obscurant1st: not without headache, as far as I know | 11:29 |
| obscurant1st | hmw, so with headache can i do it? | 11:30 |
| hmw | !grub2 | karrot: I dont know how shutdown-errors might affect grub, but you can tweak the "countdown"... read more about it here | 11:30 |
| ubottu | karrot: I dont know how shutdown-errors might affect grub, but you can tweak the "countdown"... read more about it here: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 | 11:30 |

| Orteko | `blackmk4`linux: good luck :) | 11:32 |
| wildbat | JodaZ, try testdisk to fix the partition table then | 11:33 |
| hmw | obscurant1st: in this case, I don't know mich about the details. In the worst case, you need to get the sources of the parts you have to change and compile manually. This can be messy, if your'e not used to it. In the not-so-bad-case, you would have to find some super-hidden-and-not-quite-well-known script file and adjust it. YOu'd need to learn to understand, how that thing works internally | 11:33 |
| JodaZ | wildbat, fix ?! | 11:33 |
| obscurant1st | hmw, this is not headache, this is breaking down my head into pieces as per my experience with linux, i am just a level+1 to noob | 11:34 |

| mgj | I'm using fluxbox. Before i upgraded to 10.04 nm-applet (the network manager) would save passwords for wireless networks, but after upgrading it does not save anything. I have to type in the password every time i connect. How do i fix this? | 11:48 |
| Str82DHeaD | i have a raid5 web server, which has 3 disks. | 11:48 |
| hmw | karrot: i have no idea, how your symptoms are possible. What is displayed on the server, while you "reactivate the network" by pressing a key? Does it work, if you change the TTY? (CTRL-ALT-F1, F2 etc)? | 11:49 |

| smellynoser | Hi - Is it possible to disable usb 2.0? | 11:50 |

| hmw | smellynoser: why would you want that? I think, the module is compiled in the kernel probably. | 11:50 |
| karrot | hmw: On the server monitor I'm watching iptraf to see when it stops, so I see all the bytes being shipped out and then they stop, BUT it doesn't show 0 k/bs it show the last speed it had... then I press the button it all the info updates | 11:50 |

| jcrawford | hey guys yesterday I was using the alternate cd to make an install on an encrypted volume, when done it would not accept my password. Is there a way I can remove this encryption stuff from the drive? It seems to only show as 7.66gb now rather than 8gb like it used to. Also whenever i put the disk in linux it complains about not authoriized when i try to mount it or use disk utility on it etc. | 11:51 |
| Str82DHeaD | i have a raid5 web server, which has 3 disks. 2 of them are down and the OS can't load. In BIOS the three disks are visible. It's a software mdadm raid.... So my question is how do I proceed? I can load live CD. And another question - Do "fsck /dev/sda1" will do any bad things ? | 11:51 |
| jcrawford | i would like to get rid of the encrypted volume so that i can try this installation again | 11:51 |
| hmw | karrot: perhaps the stream does not stop after all, only the displaying by this program? | 11:51 |
| hmw | jcrawford: you should be able to delete the partition with GPArted from the Live CD, I suppose | 11:52 |
| karrot | hmw: ah, but on the server side the stream stops too, and after a little bit the client says that the server has disconnected | 11:52 |
| jcrawford | hmw: that does not work i tried that. | 11:52 |
| karrot | hmw: it's like the computer just stops for 5 minutes unless a button is pressed | 11:53 |

| Str82DHeaD | anyone about RAID5 ? | 11:56 |
| hmw | karrot: I am currently out of ideas. Perhaps the machine has super small RAM and a very high load, thus goes to rebellion and takes a break to do swapping? Perhaps you got broken hardware/drivers? Keep coming back here every now and then. | 11:57 |
| karrot | hmw: thank you for trying | 11:59 |
| euro_neuro | #blulab | 11:59 |
| wildbat | Str82DHeaD, if you have 2 of them down you lost the data ~ in Disk Utility there should let to rebuild the RAID. | 11:59 |
| hmw | Str82DHeaD: ah... sorry, didnt see the raid before. (still no clue). In the worst case, you could use partimage to get the unencrypted partition into an image file on an external HD, then reformat the whole drive, and retreive the backup. partimgage doesnt work with ext4 apparently, in this case you can use any similar method like dd and tar or whatever | 11:59 |
| bilge_91 | Hi! I am using Ubuntu 10.04 updated. I have no problem about it. But there is just a small problem. I did not set any swap space on installation.

| hmw | cousin_mario: get rid of the problem that is causing it. Does your computer not shut down properly or somethign? | 12:03 |
| wildbat | bilge_91, do "sudo fdisk -l" you should have a swap partition ~ ~bt what you need to fix..... | 12:04 |

| g33k | drobiazgowy: seems so | 12:18 |

| ho | i get "chroot cannot execute initramfs no such file" during boot time | 12:20 |
| quiescens | bilge_91: ramzswap is an in memory swap | 12:20 |
| quiescens | bilge_91: its not a swap file, its a way to compress a small amount of the ram to use as a swap file | 12:20 |
| quiescens | er | 12:20 |
| quiescens | to use as swap space, anyway | 12:20 |
| drobiazgowy | g33k What about standalone quake 3? | 12:21 |

| g33k | drobiazgowy: I didn't test it | 12:23 |
| g33k | drobiazgowy: 10.04 has problems with Quake Live | 12:24 |
| g33k | drobiazgowy: but Ubuntu 9.10 doesn't have any problems | 12:24 |
| Jimi_Neutral | hmw, tried it but it does not log in if the remote machine is not logged in to the desktop | 12:24 |
| guntbert | quiescens: what would be the point of swapping to RAM? | 12:24 |
| Jimi_Neutral | hmw, uVNC just cannto connect to it until i have logged the remote machine in manually | 12:24 |
| raven_ | need an ad-hoc-network between two ubuntu machines - need help please | 12:24 |
| hmw | Jimi_Neutral: that's exactly my problem. I get disconnected and the x11 server log an error | 12:24 |
| hmw | Jimi_Neutral: can you use auto-login? | 12:24 |
| Dr4g | Look here guys !!! - http://gnome-look.org/CONTENT/content-pre1/89831-1.jpg | 12:25 |
| Jimi_Neutral | hmw, i didnt even get that far, uVNC just wouldnt connect ot server | 12:25 |
| Dr4g | How to get the monitor stuff on the left side ? | 12:25 |
| hmw | Jimi_Neutral: thus the machine would boot to the Gnome desktop and be availablefor remote | 12:25 |
| quiescens | guntbert: its kind of like compression | 12:25 |
| Jimi_Neutral | hmw, thats a good point, but then anyone can get into thw machine | 12:25 |
| bilge_91 | thank you all! | 12:25 |
| hmw | Jimi_Neutral: you could set q password for VNC | 12:25 |
| quiescens | guntbert: in actual effect there are some differences, but yeah | 12:25 |
| Jimi_Neutral | hmw, yeah but does it not leave it vulnerable if there is no password to get into the machine | 12:26 |
| Jimi_Neutral | hmw, not to log in remotley, i mean for the box itself | 12:26 |
| hmw | Jimi_Neutral: only, if you have concerns about the people, who are able to physically access the computer. | 12:26 |
| Jimi_Neutral | hmw, i thought it made it more secure from the outside as well if you had a log in password, like windows | 12:27 |
| hmw | Jimi_Neutral: in other words: if the box is in your flat, you can safely use autologin | 12:27 |
| Jacruth | hi there | 12:27 |
| Jimi_Neutral | hmw, its at work, but tbh no one would go near it lol | 12:27 |
| hmw | Jimi_Neutral: you would not remove the password like in windows, you would let it _use the passwd automatically_ | 12:27 |
| Jimi_Neutral | hmw, i was more worried about outside | 12:28 |
| Jacruth | anyone could help me? | 12:28 |
| Jimi_Neutral | hmw, ahhh | 12:28 |
| Jimi_Neutral | hmw, NICE, HOW DO I DO THAT THEN | 12:28 |
| hmw | !ask | Jacruth | 12:28 |
| ubottu | Jacruth: 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. :-) | 12:28 |
| Jimi_Neutral | hmw, oops | 12:28 |
| hmw | Jimi_Neutral: System / Administration / Login Screen / Unlock / Login As ... automatically | 12:29 |
| Jacruth | Have you ever used Gnome Nanny ( http://projects.gnome.org/nanny/ ) in Lucid? I have installed it but when I try to open the configuration (from System - Administration - Parental Control) it does not work. | 12:30 |
| hmw | Jimi_Neutral: i'd rather find out, hwo to just remotely use the login screen AND then get into Gnome... hmm... still searching | 12:31 |
| Jimi_Neutral | hmw, on one of my boxes it is 8.10 and there is a remote tab saying remote login is disabled....maybe I can use that and it will let me log in the box remotley? | 12:31 |
| Jacruth | Do you know any parental control which could disable programs and controll the time usage of the Ubuntu? | 12:32 |
| Jacruth | (Or any way to do it, perhaps with permissions rules or something like that) | 12:32 |
| hmw | Jimi_Neutral: the quote in the last entry of http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=848875 seems to suggest just as you said now. I dont have the option in Karmic apparently | 12:32 |
| ites | hey | 12:32 |
| wysiwyg | Hi, my notebook acpi support fails when doing a normal boot (most annoying: poweroff does not work), but everything works when waking up from suspend to disk. Is there detailed information about the suspend to disk process to track down the problem? | 12:33 |
| hmw | Jimi_Neutral: but the computer, you want to log into, must allow that | 12:33 |
| ites | can someone tell me how i can acces my console when i got problems to log in plz. im using kubuntu | 12:33 |
| ites | using recovery mode doesnt work | 12:33 |
| Jimi_Neutral | hmw, i will have a bash at it and see if it works :) | 12:33 |
| Jacruth | ites, have you tried to to "Alt+F1"? | 12:34 |
| Jacruth | Alt + Control + F1* | 12:34 |
| ites | gonna try Jacruth ty | 12:35 |
| ShawnRisk | everytime I wake up my laptop from sleep, the mouse cursor goes away. Using Dell Inspiron 1501. Any ideas? | 12:35 |
| acicula | ites, how does recovery mode fail | 12:35 |
| ubuntu | hi all | 12:37 |
| Jacruth | Anyone have ever used Gnome nanny? | 12:37 |
| hmw | how can one use VNC to remotely use a Ubuntu machine, that asks for a passoword (gdm login screen) | 12:37 |
| mickster04 | hmw: have you tried? | 12:38 |
| hmw | Jacruth: if you don't get an answer here, you might find help on a forum. I'd try to find a forum related to that program. | 12:38 |
| mickster04 | hmw: ou have to make sure the server is installed | 12:38 |
| ibuclaw | hmw, to actually start a new X session remotely via gdm, you'd have to enable remote logins in GDM. | 12:39 |
| Jimi_Neutral | hmw, nah that doesnt work | 12:39 |
| Jacruth | do you think they will answer me in the forum? | 12:39 |
| Jimi_Neutral | hmw, it also looks like doin auto login doesnt work either?? | 12:39 |
| ibuclaw | Jacruth, usually yes. Depending on timezone ;) | 12:39 |
| Jacruth | I tried some time ago with another issue and no one anwsered | 12:39 |
| jo-erlend | I need a script to send alt+ctrl+m. How do I do that? | 12:40 |
| ShawnRisk | anyone can help me? | 12:40 |
| Jacruth | ok, thanks hmw and ibuclaw, I will try in the forum | 12:40 |
| Jacruth | cya | 12:40 |
| hmw | mickster04: i try to help Jimi_Neutral - i cannot activate remote login as all the tutorials say, because my Karmic has a significantly reduced login window conf program. I installed x11vnc, can connect, but on login (the machine plays the sound), the connection gets terminated and the server says: caught XIO error: 14/05/2010 13:21:47 deleted 32 tile_row polling images. | 12:40 |
| ibuclaw | hmw, I have used this guide in the past. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=541656&highlight=ssh+vncviewer | 12:41 |
| ibuclaw | it's a web login, not using a dedicated vnc client | 12:41 |
| ibuclaw | but still as effective as any login manager: ie: gdm. | 12:41 |
| Jimi_Neutral | hmw, its ok, im just gonna use auto login....it does work, it was just i tried to start uvnc too early | 12:42 |
| hmw | ibuclaw: its installing the server, which should work with the ubuntu-builtin client. checking, thanks | 12:42 |
| ShawnRisk | This isn't working | 12:42 |
| Jimi_Neutral | but that remote login option on 8.10 didnt work...nm tho with auto log in it is all sorted | 12:42 |
| hmw | Jimi_Neutral: ok, happy that it works for you. I was curious about it anyways. Stay in channel, if you wanna knwo, if http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=541656&highlight=ssh+vncviewer worked for me | 12:43 |
| Jimi_Neutral | hmw, I can take away the mouse, monitor and keyboard now and no one will think to look at the twice anyway lol | 12:43 |
| Jimi_Neutral | hmw, ok will do :) | 12:43 |
| hmw | Jimi_Neutral: heheh. simply unplugging them might be even more effective *smirk* | 12:44 |

| archa | tripelb, vlc ? | 12:45 |
| cousin_mario | tripelb: does it complain about a missing codec? | 12:45 |

| notmorewindows | hi i have a problem : where I can get more accessories for the bar lubuntu xlde of 10.4 liters? I need a snap to adjust the screen brightness | 12:46 |
| Jimi_Neutral | hmw, ok now the 8.10 box wont reboot automatically cause it keeps going into low graphics mode lol | 12:47 |
| acicula | Shawnrisk whats not working? | 12:47 |
| Jimi_Neutral | hmw, know how to sort that? | 12:47 |
| notmorewindows | sorry is 10.04 lts | 12:47 |
| nicolas_ | the graphviz package in the repository is outdated and bugged, is there somewhere that I should report this (it has serious bugs)? | 12:47 |
| nicolas_ | I'm on 10.04 | 12:47 |
| ShawnRisk | acicula, when I wakeup from sleep or suspend my laptop, the mouse pointer / cursor goes away. The only way to get back is going to CLI mode and coming back to GUI mode. | 12:48 |
| ibuclaw | nicolas_, what is the package version? | 12:48 |
| acicula | nicolas_, launchpad/to the package maintainer of graphviz id guess? | 12:48 |
| acicula | ShawnRisk, laptop model? | 12:48 |
| ShawnRisk | acicula, Dell Inspiron 1501 | 12:48 |
| nicolas_ | ibuclaw: dpkg -s graphviz says 2.20.2 | 12:48 |
| Jimi_Neutral | hmw, sorted it, it seems 8.10 comes up with the running in loe graphics mode if i dont have a monitor plugged in, which is a bit of a pain in the ass cause i dont want the monitor plugged in! | 12:49 |
| nicolas_ | ibuclaw: the bug I'm talking about is fixed in 2.22 | 12:49 |
| nicolas_ | acicula: what do you mean? | 12:49 |
| kedungasem-cyber | server plasa.com | 12:49 |
| notmorewindows | where I can get more accessories for the bar lubuntu xlde of 10.4 llts? I need a snap to adjust the screen brightness | 12:49 |
| hmw | Jimi_Neutral: i just installed sudo apt-get install vnc-common tightvncserver tightvnc-java (remotely via ssh) then started: vncserver:1 and heard the login sound immediatley, while the monitor still is showing the other login screen LOL. I could connect to <machinename>:1 | 12:49 |
| kedungasem-cyber | server plasa.com | 12:49 |
| Dr_Willis | Jimi_Neutral: why are you even running X/gdm then? | 12:49 |
| hmw | Jimi_Neutral: but as for now, i only got an independend session for a newly created user VNC | 12:49 |
| wildbat | anyone have idea how to fix SUPER SLOW shutdown with a smbfs mount in fstab? it seem the network are down be4 the smbfs got umount. | 12:49 |
| guntbert | kedungasem-cyber: start your line with / | 12:50 |
| tripelb | installing vlc. cousin_mario archa | 12:50 |
| ibuclaw | nicolas_, http://packages.ubuntu.com/lucid/graphviz the version in ubuntu is 2.20.2-8ubuntu3 ? | 12:50 |
| Jimi_Neutral | Dr_Willis, because i needed a monitor a gui to set it up when i first started using it? | 12:50 |
| ibuclaw | nicolas_, http://packages.debian.org/squeeze/graphviz the version in Debian is 2.26.3-4 | 12:50 |
| kedungasem-cyber | server plasa.com | 12:50 |
| Dr_Willis | Jimi_Neutral: so turn it off now? if you are just doing ssh, you dont need the gdm service going. | 12:50 |
| nicolas_ | ibuclaw: yes, that's the most recent version | 12:50 |
| nicolas_ | ibuclaw: the debian one | 12:50 |
| guntbert | kedungasem-cyber: don't advertise !!! | 12:50 |
| acicula | ShawnRisk, is it also missing when you boot, ie when the login page is loaded? | 12:50 |
| ibuclaw | nicolas_, check launchpad for any Sync Requests in the package | 12:51 |
| Jimi_Neutral | Dr_Willis, i am using uVNC to get into it but i still dont feel confident with command line only | 12:51 |
| Dr_Willis | Jimi_Neutral: i always kept a old monitor on my headless servers anyway. every so often id have to turn it on to check the server. (had some power failure/fsck issues) | 12:51 |
| nicolas_ | ibuclaw: what is launchpad? | 12:51 |
| ShawnRisk | acicula, I am not sure never looked | 12:51 |
| Dr_Willis | Jimi_Neutral: you can start a vncserver from the rc.local - you dont need to have it booting to gnome to start vnc. | 12:51 |
| ibuclaw | nicolas_, if not you can type into a terminal: requestsync graphviz | 12:51 |
| hmw | Dr_Willis: he wants to remotely log in. We tried x11vnc, which lets us access the login screen, but on login (the sound is heard), the x11 server quits and the session is closed again -> terminated VNC session and login screen again | 12:51 |
| airtonix | Jimi_Neutral, even if you are using the x11 forwarding feature of ssh, im assuming you still dont need to deal with gdm... | 12:51 |
| notmorewindows | where I can get more accessories for the bar lubuntu xlde of 10.4 lts? I need a snap to adjust the screen brightness | 12:51 |
| Dr_Willis | Jimi_Neutral: You could even set up a service to spawn vnc as needed when the vncserver connects.. Or if ysing Linux on other machines.. you can ssh in and run gui apps anve have them tunnled over ssh | 12:52 |
| guntbert | !repeat | notmorewindows | 12:52 |
| ubottu | notmorewindows: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org while you wait. | 12:52 |
| acicula | ShawnRisk, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdm/+bug/563555 seems like a known bug | 12:52 |
| hmw | Dr_Willis: can one have "total VNC" from login screen to gnome session and back? | 12:52 |
| ibuclaw | nicolas_, and from there, state the reasons why you think a sync with upstream package is in dia need. (Which bugs it will fix, etc.) | 12:52 |
| Dr_Willis | Jimi_Neutral: or use xming/ssh on windows and get the same effect. | 12:52 |
| Jimi_Neutral | Dr_Willis, tbh for now i just wanna get rid of that error messgae so it will automatically log the box on so i can vnc into it | 12:52 |
| ShawnRisk | acicula, I should wait for the bug to be fixed? I don't think I can wait that long | 12:52 |
| acicula | ShawnRisk, test it if it applies there too and add to the BR? | 12:52 |
| proteusguy | seriously going out of my mind trying to figure out which ubuntu package holds the header files for vsprintf function. anyone?!?!? | 12:52 |
| Dr_Willis | hmw: you can get a 'gdm' login on a vnc session. Yes.. BUT you lose the 'persistant' in the background feature of vnc tha tsay | 12:52 |
| ibuclaw | !launchpad | nicolas_ | 12:52 |
| ubottu | nicolas_: Launchpad is a collection of development services for Open Source projects. It's Ubuntu's bug tracker, and much more; see https://launchpad.net/ | 12:52 |
| nicolas_ | ibuclaw: k, thanks | 12:53 |
| airtonix | proteusguy, apt-file search is your friend | 12:53 |
| nicolas_ | ubottu: ty | 12:53 |
| ubottu | You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-) | 12:53 |
| Dr_Willis | Jimi_Neutral: YOu would be better off not using the gnome built in vnc server. if you want headless. | 12:53 |
| ShawnRisk | acicula, BR? | 12:53 |
| squiddy | hi, how do i integrate flashgot and prozilla ? prozilla is not on the list. | 12:53 |
| airtonix | proteusguy, also : apt-run ./configure should deal with dependancies for you | 12:53 |
| acicula | bug report | 12:53 |
| hmw | Dr_Willis: persistant? you mean the independed session, i just got? My goal was to only to get to see the _screen_ over network | 12:53 |
| Jimi_Neutral | Dr_Willis, ok well thats a whoe new can of worms to me....plus i use it for ubuntu ghost which some of it uses gui to set it up | 12:53 |
| ShawnRisk | acicula, thanks | 12:53 |
| ibuclaw | nicolas_, do remember that command: requestsync graphviz | 12:54 |
| Dr_Willis | hmw: that shouldbe trivial. :) the feature where you can disconnect and reconnect back to a running desktop from a differnt box/later time.. is a major feature i use. | 12:54 |
| nicolas_ | ibuclaw: I will, thanks again :) | 12:54 |
| Jimi_Neutral | Dr_Willis, would just be nice if 8.10 worked without a monitor like karmic does | 12:54 |
| notmorewindows | guntbert i only need a applelt for the brightness in lubuntu bar | 12:54 |
| acicula | ShawnRisk, well the problem seems to emerge every now and then judging by google, with setting an option on SHMconfig, but how this is set is changed these days | 12:54 |
| Dr_Willis | How to start a vnc server at startup (an old thread it seems) --> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=189555 | 12:54 |
| Dr_Willis | VNC is really a nifty tool once you dig into it | 12:54 |
| hmw | Dr_Willis: i couldnt make it work, and the Login Screen window (Systm / Administration) does no longer show the "allow remote login" option | 12:55 |
| nicolas_ | ibuclaw: if there is a syncrequest, it would be in the list of bugs? | 12:55 |
| nicolas_ | ibuclaw: at launchpad | 12:55 |
| Dr_Willis | hmw: actually the 'allow remote login' is xdmcp - thats a diffent thing then VNC. | 12:55 |
| ibuclaw | nicolas_, yes | 12:55 |
| Dr_Willis | hmw: with just linux machines (or x servers on other os's) you can do a 'xdmcp' connection and get a remote X desktop locally. | 12:55 |
| ibuclaw | nicolas_, on the package page there should be a link to "Bug Reports" | 12:56 |
| Dr_Willis | hmw: you can get vnc to work similary. | 12:56 |
| Jimi_Neutral | Dr_Willis, i have found a solution but it dont make much sense to a newbie like me | 12:56 |
| ShawnRisk | acicula, there isn't other channels I can go to that might be able to help? | 12:56 |
| hmw | Dr_Willis: what if i only have a windows pc, that i dont own (thus must use portable VNC viewer)? | 12:56 |
| cousin_mario | how do I get ubuntu to stop checking the disk at boot? tune2fs didn't help | 12:56 |
| ibuclaw | nicolas_, http://packages.ubuntu.com/lucid/graphviz | 12:56 |
| acicula | ShawnRisk, this is it, or the ubuntuforums | 12:56 |
| Jacruth | Could you help me? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1483050 | 12:56 |
| Dr_Willis | hmw: then use vnc, or the java front end/viewer so you dont even need the portable one.. You dont want to use xdmcp over the internet either. | 12:56 |
| === EgYPaRaDoX is now known as Guest79312 | ||
| nicolas_ | ibuclaw: so this https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/graphviz/+bug/539771 means I should not report it? | 12:57 |

| Kreppnar | whats the problem hmw? | 12:58 |
| Jimi_Neutral | how do i edit the device section in ubuntu? | 12:58 |
| Dr_Willis | hmw: personally i do it this way.. i 'ssh' in, i start the vncserver, then i connect. I dont even use gdm on vnc any more. (at least not lately) | 12:58 |
| hmw | Kreppnar: i want to remotely (ssh) install a vnc server, that actually lets me see and use, what is on the screen, be it the login screen or the session thereafter | 12:59 |
| Pirate_Hunter | im having problems running quota on my / filesystem, I am juts wondering if xfs actually works with quota since I think xfs has its own quota mechanism even knowing I am not 100% certain about this | 12:59 |
| Dr_Willis | hmw: also it couldbe gnome is having some issues, due to the vnc stuff. Its had problems in the past. I tend to use very light window manager with vnc. like icewm | 12:59 |
| hmw | Dr_Willis: this is exactly, what i tried, and it didnt work | 12:59 |
| Kreppnar | you want to access it from a windows machine via VNC? | 12:59 |
| Kreppnar | which version of Windows? | 12:59 |
| Dr_Willis | hmw: check the vncserver logs, and try a diffrent window manager I guess for starting to trouble shoot. | 12:59 |
| Slart | Does anyone know if the new 4k sector hard drives are supported in ubuntu yet? what about the "lying" western digital drives that is xp-compatible by default? | 12:59 |
| hmw | Kreppnar: yes, but i only can make it work ,when there already is someone logged in | 12:59 |
| ibuclaw | nicolas_, I think a proper report should be made on that. | 12:59 |
| Dr_Willis | hmw: tweak your .vnc/xstartup file also to try some different things | 13:00 |
| tripelb | cousin_mario archa works on some not on others. I want to know how the file should look to see what might be missing or wrong. | 13:00 |

| Dr_Willis | hmw: exactly what happens if you 'ssh' to the server, and start vncserver, then 'vncviewer remotebox' ? | 13:00 |
| cousin_mario | tripelb: archa? | 13:01 |
| notmorewindows | hi i only need the name of the package with many accessories to lxde lubuntu bar? | 13:01 |
| leagris | hmw, alternative to VNC you may consider Freenx or Nomachine Nxdesktoop. These work through ssh and are much much faster and uses less bandwidth than VNC does. | 13:01 |
| Dr_Willis | notmorewindows: #lubuntu may know. | 13:01 |
| Kreppnar | hmw: is your vncserver requiring X? while in a shell? | 13:01 |
| iceroot | Slart: have fun with them :) | 13:01 |
| nicolas_ | ibuclaw: so I should link to that bug with the sync request? | 13:01 |
| hmw | Dr_Willis: i told you. The ssh session, where i started x11vnc says a lot of things, then I connect, and when I click "ok" after entering my password, the stdout says: caught XIO error: 14/05/2010 13:21:47 deleted 32 tile_row polling images. | 13:01 |
| antigone | so, i have a network with 4 computers. the 3 of them have ubuntu 10.4. the 4th has winXP. there is also a laser printer connected with usb to one ubuntu computer. The other Ubuntu computers can see it automatically, after i checked the options for sharing. but i cannot see it from the windows machine. Do i have to install samba in the ubuntu pc? in the winXP pc? or is it already installed? thank you | 13:02 |
| hmw | Kreppnar: i made x11vnc let me see the login screen, but it crashes on login | 13:02 |
| Dr_Willis | hmw: err.. you dont use x11vnc when you ssh in. you use somthing like tightvnc, or vnc4sderver.. | 13:02 |
| Dr_Willis | hmw: x11vnc is a special vnc that shares the current desktop remotely. the others dont do it that way | 13:02 |
| hmw | Dr_Willis: it always works for me, but my machines dont need that login screen, so huh? | 13:02 |
| hmw | Dr_Willis: aah. i see | 13:02 |
| martink | Can I make launching of new gnome-terminal windows morte intuitive? Right now a new gnome-terminal window is placed on top of each other, xterm is much better at this, it is launched beside the other window in a "free" spot. | 13:02 |
| Dr_Willis | hmw: i never use4 x11vnc i DONT want to share the locally seen desktop. :) | 13:02 |
| tripelb | cousin_mario: MOVIEPLAYER works on some not on others. I want to know how the file should look to see what might be missing or wrong. (archa as in <archa> tripelb, vlc ?) | 13:02 |
| Kreppnar | hmw: could it possibly be some permissions? that are reqeired? | 13:03 |
| Kreppnar | sorry for bad spelling | 13:03 |
| notmorewindows | because i havent the brightness in my bar lubuntu xlde | 13:03 |
| ibuclaw | nicolas_, I should think so, yes | 13:03 |
| Jimi_Neutral | does anyone know how to change the config file for what monitor and driver ubuntu uses, its seems this is the way to stop 8.10 giving a low graphics error when booting up without a monitor | 13:03 |
| Dr_Willis | x11vnc is a very specialized vnc. :) it would actually be slower then for example 'tightvnc' | 13:03 |
| nicolas_ | ibuclaw: k, thanks, I'll try to do it then :) | 13:03 |
| Dr_Willis | Jimi_Neutral: edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf how you want | 13:03 |
| Jimi_Neutral | Dr_Willis, ty :O) | 13:03 |
| hmw | Dr_Willis: i want a shared session. I made tightvnc work already but i want my current session with all my running apps. | 13:03 |
| Kreppnar | hmw: yeah try out Tightvnc for a server | 13:03 |
| tripelb | cousin_mario, both are downloaded from TPB. First nonworking ever. | 13:04 |
| leagris | Jimi_Neutral, one way is to disable DDC and put listed modes in xorg.conf | 13:04 |
| hmw | Kreppnar: Dr_Willis thanks for your help | 13:04 |
| Dr_Willis | hmw: then you want the gnome vncservice or x11vnc then. | 13:04 |
| tripelb | they are long enough | 13:04 |
| kaddi | hi woudl you advise everybody to upgrade lucid right now or are there groups that should hold off, like with the intel graphics card and jaunty? | 13:04 |
| Dr_Willis | kaddi: you could always do a new install to a flash drive and test it out and decide for yourself | 13:04 |
| hmw | Dr_Willis: i want both in a way. A shared "full" copy of the screen, including login and the session. Is that even possible with tightvnc? | 13:04 |
| mohmed | qui est la | 13:05 |
| Jimi_Neutral | Dr_Willis, nothing in there | 13:05 |
| Dr_Willis | hmw: tightvnc will NOT share the 'current' visibe desktop | 13:05 |
| Jimi_Neutral | leagris, i dont know what that means | 13:05 |
| Dr_Willis | Jimi_Neutral: thats to be expected.. since X autoconfigures for the most part. You need to add the info you need. | 13:05 |
| mohmed | comment eller en francais | 13:05 |
| Dr_Willis | !fixres | 13:05 |
| Jimi_Neutral | Dr_Willis, ah righto ty | 13:05 |
| ubottu | The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type « sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart » in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution | 13:06 |
| Dr_Willis | Jimi_Neutral: most all my machines have empty xorg.confs :) | 13:06 |
| Kreppnar | hmw: there are also alternatives like inside KDE, you have a program called Krfb. Haven't had alot of experience, although it must be running while in a X environment, before you can remotely connect to it | 13:06 |
| Dr_Willis | hmw: ive neer used the *rfb type remote desktops either. I have heard that freenx is faster.. but never got it going | 13:06 |
| hmw | freenx vnc compatible? (remember, portable app on windows) | 13:06 |
| Dr_Willis | hmw: i tend to set up a minimal desktop for a terminal, and a torrent client. :) and let them run for weeks on end | 13:07 |
| === Guest79312 is now known as release | ||
| Dr_Willis | see if freenx has a portable client. I dont use it. | 13:07 |
| hmw | gah. i want to make vnc work fully. | 13:07 |
| kaddi | Dr_Willis: my flash drive is too small and my cd drive broken, so I thought I'd ask and hope that if there are "big" known issues the community would be so honest to admit them upfront :p | 13:07 |
| === release is now known as EgYPaRaDoX | ||
| leagris | Jimi_Neutral, you will have to put Option "NoDDC in device section and Modes in the screen section. | 13:07 |
| Kreppnar | hmw: If i ever want to login to my X on my Ubuntu machine from my phone, i always start Krfb, and i set it for "Allow uninvited connections" ...but i also make it require a password. Then i connect with my Android Phone | 13:07 |
| Dr_Willis | kaddi: may as well go for it then. | 13:08 |

| Kreppnar | Dr_Willis: i was a KDE freak for a while, but i started gaming, so i switched over to a desktop that doesn't take so much for resources. So i still use Krfb inside gnome. | 13:09 |
| proteusguy | airtonix: thanx apt-file is quite useful | 13:10 |
| Kreppnar | Krfb has a easy little gui to understand for configuring. It just has to be started on the machine while in a X session before you can remotely log into it | 13:10 |
| gulash | please go in this site http://www.tryfreecandysample.com?i=46631 | 13:10 |

| xfact | I have installed Konqueror in my Ubuntu 10.04 for some testing issues, and now it can't show any flash contents, do I need to install Kubuntu restricted extras? | 13:12 |
| airtonix | hmw, freenx has a win32 client | 13:12 |
| notmorewindows | please i havent support for this ; the name of the package with many accessories to lxde lubuntu bar? | 13:12 |
| Kreppnar | xfact: you gotta find the location of your flash plugin | 13:12 |
| airtonix | hmw, or you can try installing xrdp server on linux and use the default rdp client on windows to connect | 13:12 |
| sobczyk | hi, anyone dealt with broadcom wifi using proprietary drivers? I can't set up ad-hoc network | 13:13 |
| xfact | Kreppnar, You made it more difficult to think, anyways that flashplugin.so file | 13:13 |
| xfact | ? | 13:13 |
| Kreppnar | xfact: you should have firefox installed right? | 13:13 |
| xfact | Kreppnar, Yes 3.6.3 | 13:13 |
| Kreppnar | xfact: and flash works on it right? | 13:14 |
| Pirate_Hunter | can some help me get quota working on my filesystems which are xfs? | 13:14 |
| xfact | Kreppnar, Again right | 13:14 |
| blue_anna | why does the gnome language translator app not get a system menu entry in the current system language? :) | 13:14 |
| Kreppnar | xfact: ok in the /usr/share/firefox/plugins folder should be the .so file you are looking for | 13:14 |
| acicula | blue_anna, not all applcations show an entry, but you can ussually add it or enable it if its already there(but hidden from view) | 13:15 |
| Jimi_Neutral | Dr_Willis, looks like that worked :) | 13:15 |
| Henk__ | Hi, anyone familiar with launchpad, bazaar, native ubuntu packaging of a project with subprojects (core, and large test files)? | 13:15 |
| Kreppnar | xfact; eh wait, let me browse for it...im running 10.04 as well | 13:15 |
| Kreppnar | xfact: ok its in /usr/lib/firefox/plugins | 13:15 |
| blue_anna | acicula: yeah, it's there already. it's just stuck in english. of all the apps to get stuck with an english language tag in the menu, you'd think "language translator" would be pretty far down on the list :P | 13:15 |
| acicula | ah yeh | 13:16 |
| Kreppnar | xfact: in your konqueror options, add the .so plugin from that directory | 13:16 |
| xfact | Omg! lib is flooded! | 13:16 |
| airtonix | sobczyk, need to specify : 1) the machine id of the card (ie: 14e4:4315) 2) what driver (ie, b43, sta, or ndis) 3) what encryption method (ie none, wep, wpa, etc etc ) | 13:16 |
| acicula | Henk__, there is a packaging guide on the ubuntu wiki i think | 13:16 |
| xfact | Kreppnar, Ok coming to the point... | 13:16 |
| Henk__ | I know, but I m stuck, cause the mainly deal with single simple packages | 13:17 |
| xfact | Kreppnar, The flash .so file is a linked file, ok with that? | 13:17 |
| Kreppnar | xfact: as long as its linked to the correct file yes | 13:18 |
| xfact | Kreppnar, So can you please specify what should I do with it? (Sorry I am newbie) | 13:18 |
| Kreppnar | xfact: on my machine it is called flashplugin-alternative.so | 13:18 |
| xfact | Kreppnar, Here too | 13:18 |
| acicula | Henk__, could try #ubuntu-motu if its a tricky packaging question | 13:18 |

| Henk__ | ahh! thanks acicula! | 13:19 |
| coolface | anyone here good with alsa who can look at my issue? | 13:19 |

| Kreppnar | xfact: on the bottom of that list in the settings there is a plugins section | 13:19 |

| Kreppnar | xfact: then try it and tell me if that helped any | 13:21 |
| airtonix | sobczyk, lspci -nn will give you machine id | 13:21 |
| airtonix | sobczyk, or is it 14e4:4353 ? | 13:22 |
| sobczyk | airtonix: 14e4:4353 | 13:22 |

| jcrawford | but i do not see it in the file manager, also i am not sure how to tell how large the partition is etc. | 13:34 |
| jcrawford | something is left behind as Ubuntu still thinks it is encrypted | 13:34 |
| pozic | acicula: that seems like buggy behaviour imho. | 13:34 |
| airtonix | sobczyk, no | 13:34 |
| acicula | pozic, not really, you sync with the mirror while the mirror is syncing itself | 13:34 |
| acicula | which is what trips it | 13:35 |

| tarekeldeeb | generated debs >> install all | 13:48 |
| acicula | uninstall your generated debs | 13:49 |
| Dr_Willis | their installer script MIGHT have a uninstall feature. | 13:49 |
| Dr_Willis | !ati | 13:49 |
| ubottu | For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 13:49 |
| tarekeldeeb | how do I do this uninstall? | 13:49 |
| jcrawford | ok so what is /root used for? I am trying to determine how much space to give this partition | 13:49 |
| iceroot | tarekeldeeb: sudo apt-get remove packagename | 13:49 |
| Dr_Willis | rerun their installer with a --help option. or check its docs | 13:49 |
| jcrawford | would 1GB be enough space for /root? | 13:49 |
| acicula | jcrawford, nothing in principle | 13:49 |
| iceroot | jcrawford: no | 13:50 |
| ndlovu | does lucid use imwheel for mouse button triggers? | 13:50 |
| acicula | jcrawford, it can just go on / | 13:50 |
| jcrawford | iceroot, then how large should it be? | 13:50 |
| jcrawford | acicula, ok so i don't need a seperate partition then | 13:50 |
| iceroot | jcrawford: i would use 15-20gb for / | 13:50 |
| === overmind is now known as gomagarrofin | ||
| === gomagarrofin is now known as overmind | ||
| jcrawford | iceroot, i am installing this on an 8gb thumb drive lol | 13:51 |
| acicula | jcrawford, there is little incentive to separate partitions these days, /var and /tmp and /home perhaps | 13:51 |
| jcrawford | i am making /tmp write to tmpfs (ram) | 13:51 |
| acicula | jcrawford, then dont separate at all, just make an 8GB / | 13:51 |
| iceroot | jcrawford: :-) then use 4gb | 13:51 |
| iceroot | jcrawford: i am using that in my eepc, 4gb / 4gb /home | 13:51 |
| tarekeldeeb | unfortunately I deleted the ATI bin + debs | 13:52 |
| iceroot | jcrawford: and use a separate /home | 13:52 |
| jcrawford | well i have to have /boot on it's own partition since / will be encrypted :) | 13:52 |
| DonScott | yeah /home should be seperate so you can back it up | 13:52 |
| Dr_Willis | why would you have bins and debs both? If you used debs you can use the package manager to remove the debs | 13:52 |
| theclaw | hi | 13:52 |
| tarekeldeeb | How can I uninstall the ATI in such condtion? | 13:52 |
| acicula | jcrawford, are you using FDE or the default home encryption | 13:52 |
| Dr_Willis | tarekeldeeb: check the installers docs, and you may need to redownload it. theres PROBERLY some info on this on the forums also | 13:52 |
| jcrawford | acicula, i am using the alternate cd and using encrypted volume in the partitioning manager | 13:53 |
| anodesni | tarekeldeeb, there is an uninstaller in the ATI folder in /usr | 13:53 |
| jcrawford | sdb2_crypt | 13:53 |
| acicula | jcrawford, id just go for a 100Mb /boot and the rest as /, the only advantage of separating root from /home is to be able to wipe it easily and reinstall | 13:53 |
| jcrawford | acicula, thanks :) | 13:54 |
| jcrawford | is 400MB too big for /boot? | 13:54 |
| acicula | given that you only have 8GB to work with to begin with i'd just forgo splitting, and if you are worried about running out of space you can just increase the reserved space for root | 13:54 |
| DonScott | and for anyone that needs to see how to set up a /home partition http://www.youtube.com/user/thisweekinlinux#p/u/4/wOMIbf_dbDY has a good tutorial | 13:54 |
| theclaw | it seems libfaac-support has been dropped from libavcodec for licensing reasons. how do I now encode video files for my android device? AAC seems to be the only supported audio codec for video files! | 13:54 |
| acicula | jcrawford, yeah | 13:54 |
| theclaw | :-( | 13:54 |
| acicula | jcrawford, it has to hold some grub stuff, a kernel and initrd + some gunk | 13:54 |
| theclaw | I can understand it had to be removed, but I can't say that I'm not annoyed | 13:54 |
| acicula | jcrawford, even with 6-8 kernels you wont hit 100Mb use | 13:54 |
| jcrawford | ok | 13:55 |
| theclaw | I'm seriously annoyed to be honest | 13:55 |
| acicula | jcrawford, just make sure its ext2, not ext3/4 | 13:55 |
| jcrawford | doh i did ext4 | 13:55 |
| acicula | !faac | 13:55 |
| theclaw | !faac doesn't work? | 13:55 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 13:55 |
| acicula | theclaw, you can still add it probably | 13:55 |
| theclaw | !faac | 13:55 |
| theclaw | ah | 13:55 |
| jcrawford | lwhat is faac? | 13:55 |
| theclaw | acicula: any hints how? | 13:55 |
| tarekeldeeb | i found this folder /usr/share/fglrx/ but not uninstaller | 13:56 |
| acicula | theclaw, probably via ppa or medibuntu/restricted-extras? | 13:56 |
| acicula | google can probably tell you, someone is bound to have packaged it regardless of licensing issues | 13:56 |
| theclaw | I already googled | 13:56 |
| acicula | faac is some encoding/container? for media | 13:56 |
| theclaw | seems I have to compile ffmpeg myself | 13:57 |
| theclaw | faac is a audio codec | 13:57 |
| acicula | jcrawford, ext3/ext4 have a significant base penalty in terms of disk space, which doesnt matter for 1Gb+ but has a big impact on a small disk | 13:57 |
| anodesni | With superuser permissions, enter the command "sh ./fglrx-uninstall.sh" | 13:57 |
| karthikeyan | hello | 13:57 |
| theclaw | err, audio encoder | 13:57 |
| anodesni | tarekeldeeb, from the documentation | 13:57 |
| acicula | jcrawford, and ext2 doesnt, and is just as awesome if not better | 13:57 |
| anodesni | tarekeldeeb, i.e. in /usr/share/ati | 13:58 |

| shane2peru | I have a logitech trackball, and just recently after my screensaver kicks in my trackball disconnects, and to wake it up I have to push the little button on the bottom with a pen, there must be a setting somewhere in power management, to keep my wireless trackball from disconnecting, to save power, or usb port or something? | 14:00 |
| corpse | Im having some problems running certian games. I just tryed to run glest and i can hear the sound but i just get a black screen. The same happens with counter strike and counter strike source. I end up having to cold boot. Any ideas as to were i can start to trouble shoot this problem? | 14:01 |

| acicula | shane2peru, wireless trackball via usb or bluetooth? | 14:02 |
| memenode | It appears to be a bug on launchpad from before lucid release which was closed on assumption | 14:02 |
| shane2peru | acicula, via usb | 14:02 |
| Bushu | yeh but there was bug with some nvidia card | 14:02 |
| fuechsin | acicula : dvd-usb: bulk message failed: -110 (1/0) | 14:03 |
| fuechsin | in the past the messages where only on the first terminal but with ubuntu 10.04 its on all terminals | 14:03 |
| Bushu | couldnt tell you more but if its nvidia it might be related | 14:03 |
| acicula | Jacruth, AttributeError: BlacklistManager instance has no attribute 'alignment' | 14:03 |
| memenode | they said it's interl driver or plymouth related, but yeah I have nvidia | 14:04 |
| acicula | its nanny that needs to be updated it seems | 14:04 |
| X-ray | hi folks... I installed Ubuntu 10.04 server edition on Dell R210, but when I boot I get the message that system as unable to mount root device... I just try rootdelay=60 but without any effect... some advice? | 14:04 |
| Jacruth | acicula, that error it's related to NannyBlackListManager, however, it is not shown in NannyAdminConsole | 14:04 |
| jcrawford | acicula, thanks i will re-partition this once the install is complete and then install again :) | 14:04 |
| acicula | shane2peru, there is an an autosuspend feature for usb, not sure if thats the cause though | 14:04 |
| Jacruth | Nanny have been updated on Febreuary and it is distributed as a Lucid compatbile version, acicula | 14:04 |
| acicula | shane2peru, what you can try is type lsusb in a console, that probes the bus for devices | 14:05 |
| humbolt1 | How can I change the margin of the window border in which the resize stuff does appear? | 14:05 |
| shane2peru | acicula, probably that is it, how would I configure the usb to not suspend? | 14:05 |
| blue_anna | http://pastebin.org/236619 - can anyone help me diagnose this network error? last night my wlan went down and I ended up rebooting just to reconnect | 14:05 |
| blue_anna | I didn't find that it was down until ths morning | 14:05 |
| acicula | Jacruth, its from someones PPA, which is packaged for ubuntu | 14:05 |
| humbolt1 | This is the most annoying thing in Ubuntu currently! | 14:06 |
| acicula | Jacruth, thats not the same as a package relased by | 14:06 |

| blue_anna | humbolt1: gconf-editor -- not sure where, but if you find it in there, let me know | 14:07 |
| acicula | shane2peru, does it wake up? | 14:08 |
| rocket16 | For general uses, which is better, Chrome or Chromium? | 14:08 |
| shane2peru | acicula, I'm sorry I don't understand, you mean when it disconnects, try and run the lsusb and see if that wakes it up? | 14:08 |
| Kreppnar | why is it that sometimes your ipod automaticly mounts, and sometimes when you plug it in, it doesn't even act like its there? | 14:09 |
| blue_anna | humbolt1: gconf-editor -- not sure where, but if you find it in there, let me know | 14:09 |

| acicula | Marcel you can just treat it as an archive and open it | 14:14 |
| greezmunkey | marel: look here: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubuntu/how-to-use-an-iso-image-on-ubuntu-linux/ | 14:15 |

| dotnet-65 | hey all - just upgraded from 9.1 to the new release and grub died on me with "the symbol 'grub_puts_' not found - any suggestions? thanks | 14:21 |
| scunizi | !wireless | daef | 14:22 |
| ubottu | daef: Wireless documentation, including how-to guides and troubleshooting information, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 14:22 |
| bankix | Gryllida: With the desktop CD, I would suggest 4-5 GB harddisk, with the DVD, 8 GB or more. | 14:22 |
| daef | scunizi: thanks - i'll crunch through that | 14:22 |
| bankix | dotnet-65: Do you have the complete error message? | 14:22 |
| Gryllida | bankix, it is a pc I'm going to use it at, does it mean CD? | 14:23 |
| blue_anna | bankix: about the size of your sd card ,isn't it? :) | 14:23 |
| nytek_ | does anybody know why suspend wouldn't resume? | 14:23 |
| root | hi | 14:23 |
| bankix | Gryllida: If you install from the ubuntu desktop CD, then 4-5 GB, if you install from the DVD, minimum 8 GB. | 14:23 |
| bankix | Gryllida: The DVD edition contains a lot more default stuff. | 14:23 |
| dotnet-65 | bankix: Grub loading... -- error: the symbol 'grub_puts_' not found -- grub rescue> | 14:23 |
| === root is now known as Guest86504 | ||
| Gryllida | bankix, ok | 14:23 |
| dotnet-65 | (upon reboot after upgrade) | 14:24 |
| bankix | dotnet-65: Sorry, I got a different one. | 14:24 |
| bankix | dotnet-65: Can't help here. | 14:24 |
| dotnet-65 | bankix: gotcha - thanks anyway | 14:24 |
| scunizi | Gryllida: you actually need at minimum 2 partitions.. one called / or root and the other /swap.. if you have the space and this isn't a minimal install give yourself some room.. 10gigs for root and 1 for swap, then I would also create another partition for /home. That's where the user's created data lives/stored.. make that as big as you can. | 14:24 |
| bankix | dotnet-65: Would suggest to reinstall grub from scratch -- including the files in /boot/grub and the MBR code. | 14:24 |
| dotnet-65 | bankix: downloading the live cd to try that now - my first partition on the hdd is windows xp - is there anything I should watch out for? | 14:25 |
| shcherba1 | no just boot cd | 14:26 |
| bankix | dotnet-65: Nope, that's rather straigt. But however, keep a Windows boot disk/cd on your hands. | 14:26 |
| scunizi | bankix: a lot more default stuff with the dvd? I thought it was all optional stuff like additional languages, ubuntu, kubuntu, xubuntu desktops versions etc.. what are the additional "default" stuff? | 14:26 |
| evan_ | salut | 14:27 |
| dotnet-65 | bankix: I should be able to reinstall grub from the livecd with "sudo grub-install --root-directory=/media/sda5 /dev/sda" right? | 14:27 |
| scunizi | bankix: files in /boot/grub are dynamically created with grub 2 now.. | 14:27 |
| bankix | scunizi: I didn't compare it, but after a default installation of the DVD edition, Ubuntu is larger than installed from CD. Just look at casper/filesystem.squashfs and the *.manifest files, then you see the differences. | 14:27 |
| ChogyDan | dotnet-65: do you have any other drives, external or internal? | 14:27 |
| IdleOne | scunizi: the cd and dvd do the same default install, just that the dvd has more packages on it | 14:27 |
| IdleOne | afaik | 14:27 |
| dotnet-65 | ChogyDan: not connected - just one 1TB hard drive | 14:28 |
| daef | re | 14:28 |
| scunizi | IdleOne: that's what I thought. so it shouldn't take up any more space than the standard install.. | 14:28 |
| ChogyDan | dotnet-65: try connecting that, and see if it boots | 14:28 |
| bankix | dotnet-65: That should work. Check the files in /boot/grub, maybe it's wise to reinstall the grub debian package first. Maybe one file is corrupt somehow. | 14:28 |
| IdleOne | scunizi: nope it should'nt | 14:28 |
| dotnet-65 | ChogyDan: it's already connected | 14:28 |
| daef | according to scunizi i've read the wireless-wiki-page... 4.3.5. tells me to rfkill list... there i see dell-wifi is Hard blocked... problem: wiki tells me no solutions there... what does the Hard block mean? it worked 10mins ago... | 14:29 |
| scunizi | IdleOne: b a n k i x seems to think it does. I'm of your opinion though. | 14:29 |
| ChogyDan | dotnet-65: ok, then disconnect! I think you need to recreate what drives were connected when you installed, including having a cd/dvd in the drive | 14:29 |
| acicula | daef, hard blocked means that there is a phsyicak switch that is set to disable wireless | 14:30 |
| dotnet-65 | CHogyDan: sorry for the confusion - I only have one hard drive and it's connected | 14:30 |
| acicula | daef, ussually a small switch at the front or sides of the laptop | 14:30 |
| scunizi | daef: maybe the switch on the front for wireless? | 14:30 |
| daef | i know my switch... i use it on a regular basis | 14:30 |
| daef | if it was that i'll hit the wall with my head | 14:31 |
| stevecam | is there something i have to do to get rhythmbox to make me a cd | 14:31 |
| bankix | scunizi: The filesystem.manifest-desktop between the CD and the DVD edition differs. This means, there are different package selections. | 14:31 |
| scunizi | daef: if it was that I'll sympathise with you.. I think we all have a decent dent in our forheads for one reason or another :) | 14:31 |
| scunizi | bankix: doesn't mean they get installed | 14:32 |
| daef | i switched the switch to the off-position.... now dell-wifi says hard-blocked: no, but phy0: Wireless LAN says hardblocked yes | 14:32 |
| acicula | did you upgrade/install/add drivers | 14:32 |
| bankix | scunizi: This means they are in the filesystem.squashfs which is more or less copied to the harddisk for installation -- thus they're installed afterwards. | 14:32 |
| bankix | scunizi: Sorry, my fault. | 14:33 |
| daef | acicula: i've activated the proprietary nvidia driver... but tried to disable it again too.... does not make a difference | 14:33 |
| bankix | scunizi: Did compare an old manifest file. | 14:33 |
| daef | and i've already deactivated the wlan-kill-switch in the bios... didn't change either | 14:33 |
| bankix | scunizi: manifests are the same, you're right. | 14:33 |
| acicula | daef, i've had it with two bluetooth drivers loaded, have you tried rebooting with the switch in the on position? | 14:34 |
| IdleOne | scunizi: I have not tried a DVD install but I would assume that default == default. the dvd may offer to install extra packages which the cd does not do, in that case I can see how it would be easy to confuse what default is :) | 14:34 |
| daef | acicula: it was all the time | 14:34 |
| daef | also rebooted with deactivated switch - no difference | 14:34 |
| daef | and (as already mentioned) it has been working before.. :/ | 14:34 |
| acicula | whats the device name of the dell-wifi | 14:35 |
| scunizi | IdleOne: as I understand it the dvd offers additional languages and DM's to install. may also have more apps for installation from the cd when needed for those in limited or metered connection areas | 14:35 |
| bankix | scunizi: What I'm wondering about: the filesystem.squashfs of the DVD has the double size than the one from the CD. | 14:35 |
| daef | is there a way to let the system reindex the complete HW? the system's comletely vanilla - so wouldn't mention... | 14:35 |

| daef | what goes wrong with dell_wireless mod there? | 14:41 |
| llutz | shane2peru: /etc/default/grub | 14:41 |
| acicula | daef, basically dell_laptop is causing conflicts | 14:41 |
| daef | ok | 14:41 |
| daef | do i have to prevent it from being inserted on every boot somehow | 14:41 |
| daef | or won't it load again now? | 14:41 |

| llutz | shane2peru: to change that on runtime, you'll have to rmmod the complete usb-subsystem and reload after. idk if that'll work | 14:47 |

| shane2peru | acicula, well, I live in peru, so not any baby monitors and very few microphones (wireless) here. | 14:51 |

| daef | ah yeah - another thing (just eyecandy - so not really important) when booting with the proprietary nvidia driver the bootsplash (with the ubuntu-text and the dot's indicating progress) does not come with the correct resolution (640x480 i guess) but without the driver it did (1920x....) | 15:06 |
| acicula | daef, there is no workaround for that | 15:06 |

Any ideas as to why plymouth blocks the detection of dmraid? | 16:07 |
| bartmon1 | mcl0vin: Use ssh tunneling | 16:08 |
| henriquelm | acicula, thanks | 16:08 |
| acicula | Dayii, all i know about the ati/blackscreen fix is to try nomodesetting , maybe te ubuntu wiki has a few more suggestions. | 16:08 |
| dshbusiness | lie | 16:08 |
| mcl0vin | bartmon1: how? | 16:08 |
| dshbusiness | sorry, type error | 16:08 |
| omo_ | i have the problem that no external drives are listed in nautilus - i ca mount them via the harddisk-manager but not via nautilus. gvfs seems to be correctly installed. it looks like https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/udisks/+bug/536670 - but this is marked as fixed... could someone help me track down the problem? | 16:08 |
| Dayii | acicula, but its realy odd, first it works and then not | 16:08 |
| henriquelm | acicula, will it work if I migrate from ubuntu to a different distribution? | 16:08 |
| acicula | Dayii, you could remove the quiet nosplash and see what the last message it hangs on and google that phrase | 16:08 |
| mcl0vin | bartmon1: i mean how are you thinking about it? | 16:09 |
| acicula | Dayii, the system did boot before? | 16:09 |
| acicula | henriquelm, well its more down to migrating between the daemon revisions then a different distro | 16:09 |
| acicula | distro differences may entail a slightly different use of directory structures and such | 16:10 |
| Dayii | acicula, I mean: I get the Screen to select demo and installation and the other options, and then when I select something and the ubuntu loading bar is ready it just turns black | 16:10 |
| Dayii | first it seem to work and then not | 16:10 |
| henriquelm | acicula, ok, cause having a hard time to setup openldap on ubuntu 9.10 or 10.04 | 16:10 |
| kas | oh well have to hit the road maybe i will check back later and see if anybody knows how to back out from an update | 16:10 |
| dshbusiness | Dayii: which sceen?? | 16:10 |
| kas | have a great day | 16:10 |
| Gdr | i have pidgin on both ubuntu and windows and i switch between the two quite frequently, is there a way to make .purple appear somwhere other than the home directory? | 16:11 |
| Dayii | dshbusiness, its fullhd screen | 16:11 |
| Dayii | dshbusiness, samsung p2450 | 16:11 |
| Dayii | connected with DVI | 16:11 |
| Dayii | acicula I dont know if this helps, but its not really a blackscreen, my monitor turns and standby | 16:12 |
| Dayii | turns in standby* | 16:12 |
| acicula | yeah that does help | 16:12 |
| schlaftier | Gdr: try putting it on your Windows partition and make a symlink in your $HOME | 16:12 |
| Dayii | and If I restart the montior it dont get the signal | 16:13 |
| Dayii | put the plug out and in does not help too | 16:13 |
| bartmon1 | mcl0vin: On client set up netcat in receiving mode on portReceive, on server with the video device make a ssh tunnel from localhost:localport to client:portReceive | 16:13 |
| Dayii | seems like the graphic card does not give any signal anymore | 16:13 |
| bartmon1 | mcl0vin: then send your video data with netcat to localhost:localport | 16:14 |
| bartmon1 | mcl0vin: and it will start streaming to your client | 16:14 |
| Gdr | Shlaftier:sym link stands for symbolic link, right? Not sure how to do that but i'm sure i can find the documentation on it. | 16:14 |

| Mintzz | do i have to re install ubuntu 10.04 or can i upgrade from 32bit to 64 bit...? | 16:23 |
| dshbusiness | omo_: if you have installed the stable version, I think it is perhaps a problem about the configuration, | 16:23 |
| ikonia | Mintzz: you need to re-install | 16:23 |
| dshbusiness | omo_: not a bug, check the config files?? | 16:24 |
| bartmon | Mintzz: I don't think you can upgrade, you need to reinstall. | 16:24 |
| omo_ | dshbusiness: yes i seems so - when i log out and then gibe the user no rights and admin rights again and then log in again it works - but only once | 16:24 |
| omo_ | dshbusiness: so it seems to be a problem with user rights | 16:24 |
| omo_ | dshbusiness: maybe on the message bus as udisks complains about this | 16:25 |
| tuxx | ikonia: i want direct ubuntu booting in starting | 16:25 |
| dshbusiness | try to add your username in the mount group | 16:25 |
| Mintzz | thanks, do I have to have an AMD processor to install amd64 version | 16:25 |
| omo_ | dshbusiness: bu i got no idea on how to check this | 16:25 |
| bazhang | Mintzz, no | 16:25 |
| josiah | it says wine is not available for computer | 16:25 |
| ikonia | tuxx: ubuntu is your default option in grub | 16:26 |
| omo_ | dshbusiness: there seems to be no "mount" group - cat /etc/group | grep mount gives nothing | 16:26 |
| Mintzz | so AMD64 is the correct version to access my 8 gigs of ram | 16:26 |
| ikonia | Mintzz: yes | 16:26 |
| Mintzz | wow thanks | 16:26 |
| under | Mintzz, but you maybe will have some problems about sw and drivers. | 16:27 |

| omo_ | dshbusiness: well thats VERY annoying - and i allready updated like 3 or four instances but had no problems so far | 16:56 |

| omo_ | dshbusiness: sad it did not work out :( | 16:59 |
| onetinsoldier | omfarka: you're welcome. :-) good luck. again, after you reboot make sure you do not have a /etc/X11/xorg.conf file. by default, you should not have one when the fglrx driver is no longer installed | 16:59 |
| tuxx | Dr willis: thankz | 16:59 |
| omo_ | dshbusiness: so this seems to be a dbus problem | 16:59 |

| JenniferB | Hi folks, what is the best terminal/console/command prompt for linux/ubuntu out there? I have downloaded several but they all seem to be pretty poor... is there any terminal with real transparancy for example ? So that you can see underlying windows? | 17:03 |
| deserteagle | JenniferB, have you tried rox-term? | 17:04 |
| Dr_Willis | JenniferB: you can force any window to have 'real' transpancy via compiz. | 17:04 |
| zongo_ | Hi Guys, my network manager has completly disappear off my meny bar: I can connect to the internet wirelessly when using the terminal | 17:04 |
| Dr_Willis | JenniferB: i would consider transparancy counter-productive to my terminal work needs. | 17:04 |
| deserteagle | zongo_, run "nm-applet" | 17:04 |
| kjele | zongo_: Do you see it in gnome-session-preferences? Called nm | 17:04 |
| Dr_Willis | JenniferB: for getting work done - i tend to use 'terminator' a supped up gnome-terminal | 17:04 |
| Izinucs | Dr_Willis: is Intrepid EOL? | 17:05 |
| Slart | !intrepid | 17:05 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu 8.10 (Intrepid Ibex) was the ninth release of Ubuntu. End Of Life: April 30th, 2010. See !eol and !upgrade for more details. | 17:05 |
| iceroot | JenniferB: gnome-termial + terminator | 17:05 |

| tannerb | Ok, I'm going slightly mad. I'm installing 10.4 on a new server. Using 4 750 GB and doing software raid. Two of the discs are new, and 2 I pulled out of an old server that was using some sort of nvidia fakeraid. I fdisked the previously used discs to the partition table I want, but the ubuntu installer keeps wanting to activate the old raid configuration on those discs. Is there a place I'm not thinking of where that stuff wo | 17:05 |
| omfarka | onetinsoldier: thank you man, it works :-D | 17:05 |
| Slart | Izinucs: you're welcome | 17:05 |
| skeletal | guys, i have adoubt with "compilation." So, i have a softwar here in my ubuntu. I'm into the folder and there are 1 folder and 1 file: folder SRC. File: MakeFile. In this case, how can I compile this file?????? i'm new in this subjects. I'm sorry for that | 17:06 |
| h00k | tannerb: you might want to check #ubuntu-server | 17:06 |
| JenniferB | iceroot: and Dr_Willis I have tried terminator which is my favourite so far.. but no transparancy | 17:06 |
| zongo_ | when I run nm-applet is says that it is already running | 17:06 |
| tannerb | h00k: Ahh, a fine idea. Thanks. | 17:06 |
| iceroot | JenniferB: use compiz | 17:06 |
| Slart | !compile | skeletal | 17:06 |
| Dr_Willis | JenniferB: why does transparency even matter? | 17:06 |
| Slart | skeletal: you can always try "make" | 17:06 |
| zongo_ | where is gnome-session-propertie ? | 17:06 |
| ubottu | skeletal: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first) | 17:06 |
| h00k | JenniferB: you can set transparency with terminator, open a terminal and type 'man terminator_config' | 17:06 |
| onetinsoldier | omfarka: cool :) you're welcome | 17:06 |
| kjele | zongo_: just type that in a terminal | 17:06 |
| JenniferB | Dr_Willis: because Its always in the way of my browser.. and I am a web developer | 17:06 |
| deserteagle | holy cow dude! she wants transparency, why do you have to try and beat it out of her | 17:07 |
| deserteagle | JenniferB, try rox-term, you'll love it | 17:07 |
| confrey | I have a Asus eeePC 1000H, and I can't install 10.04, the installation process stops at harddisk partitioning, by a crash, how can I install on my eee? | 17:07 |
| kjele | zongo_: It will then start a program where you can edit start up programs | 17:07 |
| Dr_Willis | JenniferB: odd.. terminator does true transparency here just fine... | 17:07 |
| skeletal | Slart: Thanks!! then i need just type#make makefile ??????????? Am I correct? | 17:07 |
| JenniferB | deserteagle ... ok .. i will try it | 17:07 |
| skeletal | Am i right about it??? | 17:07 |
| Slart | skeletal: nope.. just "make" should do it | 17:07 |
| Slart | skeletal: I think it looks for a default filename.. ie makefile | 17:07 |
| JenniferB | Dr_Willis: how do you set that ? | 17:07 |
| skeletal | oh, good. I will go try then. Wait.. | 17:08 |
| zongo_ | yep its there | 17:08 |
| Dr_Willis | JenniferB: its right there in the menus/settings terminator --version --> terminator 0.93 | 17:08 |
| kjele | zongo_: There you will see a field call Network Manager. If yo press edit it will say nm-applet --sm-disabled at command | 17:08 |
| zongo_ | but not showing on the meny bar | 17:08 |
| kjele | zongo_: Do you have volume applet on your panel? | 17:08 |
| JenniferB | Dr_Willis: for some strange reason.. the window just becomes grey... and but its not really transparent.. am I missing something ? | 17:09 |
| Dr_Willis | JenniferB: you do have compiz enabled? | 17:09 |
| zongo_ | yes correct its all there | 17:09 |
| JenniferB | Dr_Willis: no | 17:09 |
| JenniferB | do I need to ? | 17:09 |
| Dr_Willis | JenniferB: there ya go... | 17:09 |
| dAnon | I have a problem with some commands in terminal in ubuntu 10.04. After putting in "sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst" I was supposed to get something like "root=UUID=a089c41b-e47e-444e-b389-e5a23ed610ee ro quiet splash | 17:09 |

| dAnon | but nothing happened | 17:09 |
| kjele | zongo_: Please spicify | 17:10 |
| JenniferB | what is the basic compiz package that I need ? | 17:10 |

| littlepenguin | hi have a problem..just started my pc as usual but network card is known as eth1 not as usual eth0..why??and how can set it back??in interfaces is eth0 given | 17:10 |
| Dr_Willis | JenniferB: try enabling compositing feature of metacity..or else no transparency for you | 17:10 |
| Slart | dAnon: they've changed grub in 10.04.. it's now using grub2 which uses other configuration files | 17:10 |
| iceroot | dAnon: 1. dont use sudo for gui-apps, 2. 10.04 is not using grub legancy so there is no menu.lst | 17:10 |
| TEN | Got a system with a SuperFloppy (as they were called, LS-120 COSM) on ATA and the main HDD on SATA. Looking for the easiest way to make the SATA hard disk become sda rather than sdb. | 17:10 |

| zongo_ | I have a volume applet and the network manager is there when in a terminal I type gnome session properties | 17:10 |
| Slart | dAnon: and don't use sudo for gui stuff... use gksudo instead | 17:10 |
| Dr_Willis | JenniferB: No idea. | 17:10 |
| Slart | !gksudo | dAnon | 17:10 |
| ubottu | dAnon: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) | 17:10 |
| zongo_ | when I edit it I see nm-applet --sm-disable | 17:11 |

| jason_ | is there any gui interfaced programs like daemon tools? | 17:13 |
| iceroot | king11: fine | 17:13 |
| morbo1993 | nytek_, yeah i'm very new to Linux, whats a cli app? :) | 17:13 |
| jason_ | i need to mount a .cue file | 17:13 |

| venik212 | I cannot add or remove objects from the gnome panel. The usual way (right-click, etc.) stopped working. What do I do? | 17:13 |
| Dr_Willis | a cue file is just like a text file. i thought the .bin was the actual data of the drive | 17:13 |
| Slart | dAnon: yes, gksudo does almost the same thing as sudo.. your program will still be run as root.. but it won't break things for you | 17:13 |
| skeletal | Slart: show some error when i type make! Can you analyze what happen???? I just past here http://pastebin.com/iz9Lq9Hj | 17:13 |
| Slart | skeletal: sure.. let me have a look | 17:13 |
| iceroot | jason_: the *.cue is not something like an iso, its an information-file | 17:14 |
| nytek_ | morbo1993: command line applications, if you want to run a really lightweight suite then I would reccomend looking into cli applications. [irssi,ncmpc,rxvt,etc..] | 17:14 |
| skeletal | Slart: Thanks a lot, buddy! | 17:14 |
| kjele | zongo_: The command will reset your panel to its default | 17:14 |
| jason_ | woops, wrong file extension | 17:14 |
| Dr_Willis | jason_: the 'fuseiso' or 'fuseiso9660' tool can mount those I recall. or you can convert to iso. then mount it.. BUT dont expect game-copy protection to work. | 17:14 |
| jason_ | img | 17:14 |
| king11 | iceroot: no because when I first started using ubuntu my friend always told not to update through the update manager to a new version instead download the version put it on a disk then update but if i do it that way i will lose all my data | 17:14 |
| nytek_ | morbo1993: and if you think you are confident enough, try out a tiling WM. extremely lightweight | 17:14 |
| iceroot | king11: of course you make a backup first, then use the updater from the et | 17:15 |
| Slart | skeletal: hmm.. it might be missing something.. what is it you're compiling? is it available from the ubuntu repos? is there a readme file somewhere? | 17:15 |

It shows up as 2 separate devices when I run "xinput list", one of which was configured as a pointer and one of which was configured as a tablet. 95% of the time the tablet device is the only one that gets events, and it has some wonky behaviour. The other times it's the POINTER device that gets events, and it works the way I expect. | 17:17 |
| Slart | skeletal: it's hard to tell.. I would guess you're missing some dependency.. it's usually listed in a readme file.. for example they might say that you'll need the kernel header files.. or some gtk libraries.. then you have to install those (they usually end in -dev) | 17:17 |

| abid | Its a nvidia Vanta/ TNT2m64, | 17:24 |
| arand | kjele: That won't do anything but reinstall the metapackage... | 17:24 |
| onetinsoldier | skeletal: there is something that GCC doesn't like with at least one of the .c files.... flood.c, or something is wrong in tribe.h. that's what it looks like to me anyway | 17:24 |
| Dr_Willis | abid: thats an OLD card then? 'tnt2' I recall being very old? or did they redo the names for some newer cards? | 17:25 |

| onetinsoldier | skeletal: i don't know. it might not be a problem with your gcc. what version of gcc do you have installed? | 17:27 |
| KaiForce | abid see my messages above | 17:27 |
| Dr_Willis | morbo1993: check the openbox docs and make it autostart lxpanel perhaps? | 17:27 |
| arand | kjele: Yes, but removing ubuntu-desktop will only remove the metapackage, naught more... possibly if you used the tasksel way with "ubuntu-desktop^" (note caret) but I suspect that might break more than it solves... possibly. | 17:28 |

| mgmuscari | Dr_Willis: how would you go about it? i've already looked at everything in /dev/input | 17:28 |
| husk | can i disable js0 temporarily? | 17:29 |
| onetinsoldier | skeletal: you might just have bad luck in that everything you've happened to have downloaded actually needs a little fixing from the developer. i don't know | 17:29 |
| kjele | arand: You can rememove a package without removing the meta package. Therefore by doing this you will force to install everyting the meta package will install | 17:29 |

| aeon-ltd | abid: in ubuntu i don't think thats posibble unless you let hal and x run both of them driverless which means you can't have compositing, but in windows i think it could work since UPNP works better | 17:35 |

| kjele | zongo_: can you "killall nm-applet && nm-applet &" And see what you get in the terminal? | 17:40 |
| husk | having a problem and not sure how to fix it. My sidewinder mouse is somehow considered a joystick and is occupying /dev/js0. Is there an easy way to disable this? | 17:40 |
| JenniferB | how do I start one of those programs then ? | 17:40 |
| nilsma | KaiForce, http://pastebin.com/NWCgKFLy like so? | 17:40 |
| abubakar | i just check am not able | 17:41 |
| mvip | How can i force 10.04 to use Lilo instead of Grub? | 17:41 |
| CogitoErgoSam | JenniferB: Which? An installed program? Or those commands I listed? The ones I listed are run in a terminal | 17:41 |
| pgpkeys | i thought it was the mobility theme but that is removed. the only themes i have installed are the icon themes and i've ripped all those out just to see if they were causing it. i had the avant-window-manager package installed and was thinking that was what it was defaulting to but thats gone as well so it's not it | 17:41 |
| mvip | I've tried both the Alternative and the Server disk...but the only way I know how to get Lilo is when Grub fails... | 17:41 |
| mvip | \ | 17:41 |
| JenniferB | CogitoErgoSam: and onetinsoldier :... i just re-installed compiz for example.. and its no where to be seen in the menus | 17:41 |
| zongo_ | kjele: it returned this --> [1] 4370 | 17:41 |
| zongo_ | zongo@vortex:~$ ** (nm-applet:4372): DEBUG: old state indicates that this was not a disconnect 0 | 17:41 |

| JenniferB | it used to be there before I uninstalled it | 17:42 |
| === gabriel__ is now known as egc | ||
| onetinsoldier | JenniferB: don't think you'll see that in the menus... it's a window manager | 17:42 |
| CogitoErgoSam | JenniferB: Run this and pastbin the result: "dpkg -l | grep compiz" | 17:42 |
| KaiForce | nilsma: exactly. hang on let me review | 17:42 |
| CogitoErgoSam | JenniferB: Oh I remember now, you need the setting program...one sec and I'll find the name | 17:42 |
| nilsma | KaiForce, waiting | 17:42 |
| egc | is there some kind of stock market widget for the gnome desktop anybody can recommend? similar to the dashboard on mac os x | 17:42 |
| onetinsoldier | CogitoErgoSam: compizconfig-settings-manager | 17:43 |
| CogitoErgoSam | that's it | 17:43 |
| exc_ess | Anyone have any idea why my touchscreen would be detected by udev at /dev/input/event6 AND /dev/input/event4? Only one of those actually gives events most of the time | 17:43 |
| sebsebseb | JenniferB: hrm just was going through backlog/scrollback a bit. Ubuntu comes with default Compiz effects, but only very basic to begin with. However you could enable extra. system > preferences > visual effects. most programs will add them selves to the applications menu. you can also edit the menu yourself, and get programs showing or not showing | 17:43 |
| onetinsoldier | simple-ccsm | 17:43 |
| CSSnub | As near as I can tell from reading online, there is no disadvantage to using aptitude - Is every package that is available on apt-get available to aptitude? | 17:43 |
| soupdragon | hi ubuntu | 17:43 |
| soreau | sebsebseb: she removed compiz at one point | 17:43 |
| CSSnub | Repositories are package-manager agnostic? | 17:43 |
| CogitoErgoSam | JenniferB: You need to install this to change the more in depth compiz settings: "compizconfig-settings-manager" | 17:44 |
| onetinsoldier | skeletal: it bombed out on me too. i got a different error though it looks like | 17:44 |
| JenniferB | sebsebseb: how do I edit programs in that menu ??? :D | 17:44 |
| kjele | zongo_: Not much help :( | 17:44 |
| CogitoErgoSam | JenniferB: So run this in console...."sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager" | 17:44 |
| KaiForce | nilsma: how big is this device? | 17:44 |
| nilsma | KaiForce, 8gb | 17:44 |
| zongo_ | kjele: no worries. Thank you | 17:44 |
| KaiForce | nilsma: ty. still looking | 17:44 |
| GeekSquid | CSSnub: aptitude uses apt, which uses your /etc/apt/sources.list and /etc/apt/sources.list.d which is the same thing as using synaptic, just a different way of doing it | 17:44 |
| CogitoErgoSam | JenniferB once you install the settings manager it should appear in your System->Preferences menu | 17:44 |
| sebsebseb | JenniferB: system > preferences > Main Menu | 17:44 |
| CSSnub | GeekSquid: Cheers :) | 17:45 |
| surge | woohoo | 17:45 |
| surge | it worked | 17:45 |
| skeletal | onetinsoldier: so......... show error message for you as well ???? | 17:45 |
| surge | i got my sas raid card workin in jewbuntu | 17:45 |
| sebsebseb | JenniferB: which programs do you want showing on the menu? | 17:45 |
| nilsma | KaiForce, thanks, the help is greatly appreciated :) | 17:46 |
| CogitoErgoSam | sebsebseb: She doesn't need to add anything...she wanted to change compiz settings which requires the "compizconfig-settings-manager" to be installed, and it would appear automatically | 17:46 |
| sebsebseb | CogitoErgoSam: ok | 17:46 |
| onetinsoldier | skeletal: it's a little different.. hang on | 17:46 |
| CSSnub | I notice that | 17:46 |
| CSSnub | sudo aptitude upgrade does nothing | 17:47 |
| CSSnub | Is there an alternative method for aptitude? | 17:47 |
| An_Ony_Moose | how do I get my wacom bamboo tablet to work in lucid? it was working in karmic. | 17:47 |
| sebsebseb | CSSnub: uh not exactly apt-get and aptitude are rather similar | 17:47 |
| CSSnub | safe-upgrade/full-upgrade? | 17:47 |
| aeon-ltd | CSSnub: apt-get? | 17:47 |
| onetinsoldier | skeletal: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/8s2UWXwD | 17:47 |
| skeletal | ontinsoldier: dammit...... this's strange..... have you idea of what happen then? in this case will be that we need some dependenc ?? | 17:48 |
| zongo_ | kjele: could it be coming from my network configuration ? | 17:48 |
| GeekSquid | CSSnub: in aptitude, Menu Actions, Mark upgradable | 17:48 |
| CSSnub | 'sudo aptitude upgrade --show-upgraded' does nothing, but that would work for apt-get. It seems that aptitude is the better option so I'm trying to rewrite a tutorial using aptitude. | 17:48 |
| kjele | zongo_: How do you configure your network? | 17:48 |
| pgpkeys | whats the gnome program name for taking a snapshot of your desktop? I want to submit an image of the desktop to image.ca so that I can show people what the desktop looks hoping folks know what package is responsible for the look so i can remove it | 17:48 |
| CSSnub | Is that equivalent to 'sudo aptitude safe-upgrade'? | 17:48 |
| Dr_Willis | pgpkeys: wow.. thats convulated.. :) | 17:49 |
| KaiForce | nilsma: I'm only seeing old bug reports on this. Do you have different USB port, perhaps located in a different location on the computer, you can try it in? | 17:49 |
| onetinsoldier | skeletal: on both our systems, there's something it doesn't like about 'disc.c', it looks like. not sure though. you'd need the developer to figure it out | 17:49 |
| john__ | @pgpkeys -gnome-screenshot --interactive | 17:49 |
| Dr_Willis | pgpkeys: You want to remove the program that handles the screen-snapshoting ? | 17:49 |
| pgpkeys | uhh how is it convoluted. if no one knows what the desktop looks like how can someone say Oh thats done buy such and such a package? | 17:49 |
| pgpkeys | john__ ~ thanks | 17:49 |
| AnxiousNut | play on linux tells me that i dont have 3d acceleration, what can i do? i have my driver installed and enabled! | 17:50 |
| kjele | CSSnub: safe-upgrade is the same as upgrade. Try aptitude upgrade and you will get a deprecated message. Which will never be depricated. | 17:50 |
| JenniferB | My computer froze... anyone said something.. i am pretty sure I missed it.. | 17:50 |
| nilsma | KaiForce, one sec | 17:50 |
| soupdragon | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1046568 --- FAQ doesn't have my problem on it :( | 17:50 |
| pgpkeys | dr_willis ~ no, i want to remove the package that handles the desktop UI layout and look. the specific one that is making the desktop look like it is | 17:50 |
| skeletal | onetinsoldier: OK, i see your pastbin. So, i will go to investigate its better.... Buddy, thanks for help me. OK? God bless you! | 17:50 |
| GeekSquid | CSSnub: aptitude has a interface, passing commands to it may work in some cases, however using it's interface is better because you can see what is going on ... whereas passing commands to apt-get is the method of choice | 17:50 |
| CSSnub | kjele: thanks! | 17:50 |
| pgpkeys | anxiousnut ~ hehe you get that let me know cause it tels me the same thing with my fglrx module installed | 17:50 |
| Dr_Willis | pgpkeys: You mean somthing other then the normal gnome desktop then eh? Gimp can also do screensnapshots. | 17:50 |
| HaPK | how do I configure my tablet to make it work? I have a genius mousepen 8x6, I already installed the wizardpen driver but the tablet simply won't work. I'm using lucid 64-bits | 17:50 |
| pgpkeys | dr_willis ~ yes, its not the normal desktop. I want to REVERT back to that, AND i want to revert the gdm theme back to its official default | 17:51 |
| CSSnub | GeekSquid: So if my tutorial is going to instruct people to install packages from the command line I should NOT use aptitude? | 17:51 |
| AnxiousNut | pgpkeys, :( will do if i got the answer | 17:51 |
| onetinsoldier | skeletal: cheers :-) good luck | 17:51 |
| FrozenFire[work] | I seem to be having issues getting the Mozilla Flash plugin working in Firefox after having dist-upgraded to Lucid. | 17:51 |
| Dr_Willis | pgpkeys: and you dont rember what you installed eh? like ubuntu-netbook or some other window manager? | 17:51 |
| pgpkeys | john__ ~ will run that as soon as these updates finish installing | 17:51 |
| GeekSquid | CSSnub: use apt-get install packagename | 17:51 |
| FrozenFire[work] | Flash was working before the upgrade, but now, no matter what I do, it will not install. | 17:51 |
| nilsma | KaiForce, http://pastebin.com/g876u8gN - here i have moved the 8gb thumbdrive from the usb-socket to a different usb-socket where i previously had an usb-external-hd connected which works flawlessly | 17:52 |
| tanner | why is Translation-en_us failing on every repository | 17:52 |
| pgpkeys | dr_willis ~ i thought it was avant-window-manager (installed to check it out at the time) but i have since purged that package and the awn* packages as well | 17:52 |
| CSSnub | GeekSquid: That won't allow uninstallation of packages to remove dependencies though right? | 17:52 |
| pgpkeys | so it should have reverted back | 17:52 |
| Dr_Willis | pgpkeys: awn is just a fancy 'dock' | 17:52 |
| ashishsony | hi anyone here to help for ubuntu 10.01?? | 17:52 |
| pgpkeys | and no ubuntu-netbook isn't the problem. i know what THAT one looks like | 17:52 |
| Dr_Willis | pgpkeys: so hit printscreen, or use the gimp to take a screen shot. | 17:52 |
| pgpkeys | this looks almost like a BeOS or something | 17:52 |
| pgpkeys | gonna use the gnome-screenshot as soon as these packages finish installing | 17:53 |
| kjele | CSSnub: It will. You just need to type apt-get autoremove | 17:53 |
| arooni-mobile___ | what is a good diff tool if i have two directories of code i want to diff ? (see what files were added, changes etc) | 17:53 |
| KaiForce | nilsma: hmm, same. I'm not sure what is going on. do you have any other systems? I'm thinking attach it to another computer, format it there if possible, and try it again on this one | 17:53 |
| nilsma | KaiForce, hang on ill try it on my win-box | 17:53 |
| pgpkeys | was doing an apt-get upgrade when i asked the question | 17:53 |
| GeekSquid | CSSnub: suggest you read 'man apt-get' | 17:53 |
| mwmstress | FrozenFire: have you tried completely removing flash and then installing it again? | 17:54 |
| Dr_Willis | pgpkeys: you could also --> cat ~/.dmrc to see what desktop/window manager you are using by default | 17:54 |
| greggomano | Help guys - during install everything went great, at reboot nothing much happened - not sure grub installed to mbr - anything i can do??? | 17:54 |

| craig | it previously mounted fine, just after a reboot it has stopped | 18:02 |

| DelphiWorld | xangua: there is live trafic... | 18:02 |
| onkara | could anyone please confirm if AutoFs is a known issue ? | 18:02 |
| cpbtklogic | DelphiWorld: change /etc/resolv.conf | 18:02 |
| nilsma | KaiForce, seems possible indeed :p any idea what might have done it? | 18:02 |
| KaiForce | nilsma: impossible to say | 18:02 |

| zongo_ | # iface wlan0 inet dhcp | 18:05 |
| zongo_ | as soon as I took those lines out | 18:05 |
| pgpkeys | hehe i was wrong. it's aptitude keep-all | 18:05 |
| pgpkeys | duh | 18:05 |
| zongo_ | the network manager was back on | 18:05 |
| Slart | salil: check /var/log/syslog , /var/log/kern.log | 18:05 |
| zongo_ | which is completely weird | 18:06 |
| zongo_ | isn't it ? | 18:06 |
| Slart | salil: they both have either time or a timestamp at the beginning of each line | 18:06 |
| zongo_ | kjele: I do not see the relation between the configuration file of my wlan and the applet network manager | 18:06 |

| Slart | salil: you're welcome | 18:07 |
| cpbtklogic | Lucid users.... dos2unix? | 18:07 |

| zongo_ | ah ok | 18:07 |

| Dr_Willis | but thats not a kernel option | 18:15 |
| AnxiousNut | pgpkeys, i think i might have solved it! not getting the error! | 18:15 |
| TLF | oh | 18:15 |
| TLF | ok | 18:15 |
| mgmuscari | Dr_Willis: wow, i've catted every single cattable device in /dev and none of them correspond to these buttons | 18:15 |
| Dr_Willis | TLF: theres also the 'nofb' and 'nosplash' options that might show more | 18:15 |
| TLF | I'll try that, thank you very much, Dr_Willis | 18:15 |
| TLF | I'll try that, thank you very much, Dr_Willis | 18:15 |
| AnxiousNut | pgpkeys, are you there? | 18:15 |
| Dr_Willis | mgmuscari: on some of my keyboards I had a few keys i had to do some special commands to even get them maped to a input device. | 18:15 |
| hubar | Question, is there anyway to customize the new Messenging Menu in Lucid? | 18:15 |
| aeon-ltd | christina: any usb sticks?, portable mediums, dropbox account(2gb at a time)? | 18:16 |
| mgmuscari | Dr_Willis: i'm still not even sure that these things are related to the keyboard... what kind of commands are you talking about? | 18:16 |
| christina | but I want to connect both of them | 18:16 |
| Dillon | yo jamie | 18:16 |
| pmatulis | christina: did you at least try to use a regular ethernet cable? | 18:16 |
| Dillon | yo jamie | 18:16 |

| jamie | haha | 18:16 |
| bazhang | Dillon, please stop that | 18:16 |
| Dr_Willis | mgmuscari: i had to do some special commands to get the media/special keys going on an IBM keyboard i have.. (i just unhooked the keyboard also after seeing it wasent properly working in 10.04 either) :) | 18:16 |
| cpbtklogic | Dr_Willis, onetinsoldier: thanks! (1) apt-file = good, (2) dpkg -L (not -S ... don't assume you remember what commands do, (3) expect name changes in lucid (not dos2unix -> now 'fromdos') | 18:17 |
| jamie | whats up | 18:17 |
| christina | pmatulis, as i know that for connecting two PC , crossover ethernet cable is required | 18:17 |
| jamie | nigga i'll fuck u up | 18:17 |
| mgmuscari | Dr_Willis: do you remember what commands you used? | 18:17 |
| Dillon | whats yo problem bitch ass nigga | 18:17 |
| aeon-ltd | christina: ok then, is there a firewall set up on either device? | 18:17 |
| pmatulis | christina: did you at least try to use a regular ethernet cable? | 18:17 |
| Dillon | yeah sudo get your mommas pussy bitch | 18:17 |
| onkara | could anyone confirm if autofs in LucidLynx is broken ?? | 18:17 |
| Dr_Willis | christina: unless the 2 nic are 1000's then they can auto negoiate i think | 18:17 |
| onetinsoldier | cpbtklogic: cheers. you can use that apt-file to list all files of a package... that's not even installed on your system :-) example... apt-file list wdiff | 18:18 |
| Dr_Willis | or whatevr that proper term is for the Gb Nics :) | 18:18 |
| cpbtklogic | christina: yeah... watch out for auto-negotiate. I've even seen non-100 be smarty pants and try crossing over internally. | 18:18 |
| cpbtklogic | s/non-100/non-1000/ | 18:18 |
| craig | is anyone able to help with the mount problem? | 18:19 |
| Dr_Willis | christina: all ive ever done is get a crossover cable. install a dhcp server on the linux box.. (or set the ips manually) and they worked.. | 18:19 |
| craig | ive tried as root etc | 18:19 |
| amigrave | I tested an nvidia card and activeted the proprietary nvidia module. Then I changed the gfx card and put back an old voodoo banshee, but Xorg still loads the nvidia glx module (I deleted the nvidia configured Xorg.conf). What config could be left that still loads nvidia stuff ? | 18:19 |
| DonScott | Fun stuff..... www.steamonlinux.com | 18:19 |
| christina | i pinged ubuntu PC from xp and got reply but when i pinged xp pc from ubuntu then i got no reply | 18:19 |
| Dr_Willis | christina: i did use ssh/winscp however. Not samba | 18:19 |
| Dr_Willis | christina: windows firewall can block pings i recall. | 18:19 |
| Dildo | yoo | 18:19 |
| Dildo | whats up guys | 18:19 |
| Corrie | dildo? really | 18:19 |
| ricardoromao | christina, windows firewall | 18:19 |
| matthewbpt | has anyone here formatted a 1tb hard drive to ext4? | 18:20 |
| spikeb | i have | 18:20 |
| ricardoromao | mattgyver, me too | 18:20 |
| dominicdinada | what is the gstreamer package i need to grab to play files in totem ? | 18:20 |
| craig | ive formatted a 500gb drive and 6 months later it stopped mounting | 18:20 |
| CSSnub | When I install MySQL on my Mac the installation came with a directory called support-files - it contained some example my.cnf files for various configurations. Any idea where those would be on Ubuntu? | 18:20 |
| atelierbg | lease help me, i need a dictionary ,italian english, for use off -line ,please where can i get it ?? | 18:20 |
| dominicdinada | says there is 40 or more packages' | 18:20 |
| christina | DR_Willis windows firewalll ? | 18:20 |
| matthewbpt | I just formatted my new one, and it says 46GB used, it's empty... is this normal | 18:20 |
| DCGstudios | craig, will it not mount at all or did it totally crash | 18:20 |
| Dr_Willis | christina: windows has a firewall feature yes.. | 18:21 |
| ricardoromao | CSSnub, /etc/my.cnf or /var/lib/mysql | 18:21 |
| Dr_Willis | matthewbpt: 5% is reserved by default.. so yes. | 18:21 |
| iguest | Yep, 1 TB drive formatted to EXT4... | 18:21 |
| Dr_Willis | matthewbpt: tuneable by the 'tune2fs' command | 18:21 |
| dominicdinada | matthewbpt: sounds like you just resized a partition | 18:21 |
| craig | DCGstudios: When I try to mount it, it says there is not valid NTFS partition. | 18:21 |
| mgmuscari | matthewbpt: i recently noticed with creating ext4 partitions with a fresh install on my laptop that they all showed strange amounts of used disk space when i created them | 18:21 |
| Dr_Willis | 5% of 1000 = Err... math 101.. lets see.... | 18:22 |
| victoria | hello, I still have a problem with Flash. Sound quites after around 1 minute, using Firefox and Chrome. Anyone knows how to fix this? Thanks! | 18:22 |
| craig | DCGstudios: even when using disk utility as root | 18:22 |
| zongo_ | kjele: yes I do get connection loss | 18:22 |
| aeon-ltd | CSSnub: search around in /etc/ or /usr/share for a mysql folder | 18:22 |
| matthewbpt | thanx guys | 18:22 |
| DCGstudios | craig, okay can you please execute 'fdisk -l | 18:22 |
| perlsyntax | does anyone know where i can find emacs 23.2 deb file? | 18:22 |
| CSSnub | Interesting, they don't appear to be in either of those places. Perhaps they are unique to MacOSX. | 18:22 |
| DCGstudios | craig, and pastebin it | 18:22 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: Flash sound issues hrm. Which version of Ubuntu? | 18:22 |
| onetinsoldier | atelierbg: hello | 18:22 |
| perlsyntax | ? | 18:23 |
| victoria | sebsebseb: the latest upgrade 10.04 | 18:23 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: right did you upgrade from 9.10? | 18:23 |
| onetinsoldier | atelierbg: you can probably install... dict, dictd, and the language packages, and then use them offline | 18:23 |
| craig | DCGstudios: http://pastebin.com/q8aTW6sJ | 18:23 |
| victoria | yes, hoped it would solve the problem | 18:23 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: ok so you also had a problem in 9.10 ok | 18:24 |
| victoria | sebsebseb: yes | 18:24 |
| bharatgoyal | i m having problems installing wireless on lucid lynx | 18:24 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: have you tried any other browsers as well? loads you can try | 18:24 |
| matthewbpt | ok so how do I use tune2fs to change the amount of reserved space, and is this safe? | 18:24 |
| iguest | 1.00 TB [931.51 GiB, 1000204886016 bytes] | 18:24 |
| bharatgoyal | with broadcom ethernet | 18:24 |
| matthewbpt | ie. what is it reserved for? | 18:24 |
| dominicdinada | mgmuscari: matthewbpt every file system reserves a certain amount for file info while a 4 gig drive may be label 4gigs it never is because companies market the drive at the "max" while it maybe be 4,000,000 bytes that is not 4 gigs so it is in reality 3.7gigs, then the file system adds a block to link files, etc such as ntfs,ext3,ext4 | 18:24 |
| victoria | I tried Google Chrome, same problem | 18:24 |
| onetinsoldier | atelierbg: for example, one of the language packages you'll want is... dict-freedict-eng-ita | 18:24 |
| dominicdinada | iguest: that would be normal | 18:24 |
| victoria | sebsebseb: the soundcard works, it just Flash | 18:24 |
| bharatgoyal | tried googling.. did not get any solution that might work | 18:24 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: since Flash is closed source, if there are problems with it, about all we can do is re install it, or work around it | 18:25 |
| perlsyntax | anyone use emacs in here? | 18:25 |
| DCGstudios | craig, is the partition your trying to mount sda3 or sda4? | 18:25 |
| iguest | I agree. | 18:25 |
| craig | DCGstudios: sdb1 | 18:25 |
| llutz | matthewbpt: tune2fs -m X ; reserved for root only; its safe | 18:25 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: is it all Flash? what are you using Flash for? videos or? | 18:25 |
| dominicdinada | iguest: you have to take into account the filetables.... also will the drive might be 1,000,000,000 bytes that is not an actual TB | 18:25 |
| perlsyntax | ??? | 18:25 |
| mgmuscari | dominicdinada: it seems strange to me that this would show, for example, as "720mb used" | 18:25 |
| victoria | sebsebseb: ok, will try to install via the package manager. I use Flash to watch YOuTube | 18:25 |
| bharatgoyal | victoria, flash is closed source.. but you can always report a bug.. i am in adobe flash team. | 18:26 |
| kjele | victoria: 64 bit you using? | 18:26 |
| craig | perlsyntax: I've used E which I believe is similar | 18:26 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: there are even Flash alternatives, that may be good enough for Youtube now | 18:26 |
| DCGstudios | craig, you say the filesystem is ntfs correct? not ext? | 18:26 |
| victoria | 32 bit | 18:26 |
| sebsebseb | bharatgoyal: you work for Adobe? | 18:26 |
| matthewbpt | well, the reason its not four gigs is actually because of the differing definitions used by the manufacturers and operating systems, a 4 gb has a Gigabytes not 4 "Gibibytes" | 18:26 |
| perlsyntax | cool | 18:26 |
| dominicdinada | mgmuscari: As i said before NTFS,EXT3,EXT4 all carry file tables.... to make the drive faster when locating things, also permissions and other meta info | 18:26 |
| perlsyntax | i try to find the emacs 23.2 deb | 18:26 |
| Sereph | any way i can get a notification when there is an incoming ssh connection? | 18:26 |
| bharatgoyal | sebsebseb: yes | 18:26 |
| matthewbpt | the manufactures use the decimal system while most OS's use the binary system to work out the ammount of disk space | 18:26 |
| sebsebseb | bharatgoyal: oh | 18:26 |
| kjele | zongo_: that is bad | 18:26 |
| mgmuscari | dominicdinada: manufacturer advertisements aside - if i create a 40,000mb partition, i don't expect to see almost 2.5% of it used right off the bat | 18:26 |
| gharz | guys, generally, how big is the space does ubuntu use on a freshly installed ubuntu lucid? | 18:26 |
| victoria | sounds like this is not a common problem, good for you then | 18:26 |
| bharatgoyal | sebsebseb: why? | 18:27 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: oh it is a common problem | 18:27 |
| monkey_dust | hi all -- my ubuntu 10.04 uses kernel 2.6.32-18-generic-pae -- to be able to use Sun Virtual Box, I need 2.6.32-22-generic-pae, which i downloaded, ok -- but how do i install and use it? -- hints & tips anyone? | 18:27 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: for people to get sound issues with Flash in Ubuntu, sometimes | 18:27 |
| mgmuscari | dominicdinada: yeah but i've never seen them be that large | 18:27 |
| craig | DCGstudios: its ext4 according disk utility | 18:27 |
| dominicdinada | matthewbpt: that is why those 4gigs are formated in fat because they dont contain more file tables... consuming more space | 18:27 |
| perlsyntax | craig | 18:27 |
| mgmuscari | i haven't used ext4 much before, though, so who knows | 18:27 |
| dominicdinada | mgmuscari: how many TB drives have you to compair it to | 18:27 |
| sebsebseb | bharatgoyal: just interesting that's all. that someone is in here, who apparantly works for Adobe's Flash team | 18:27 |
| victoria | I installed Flash with Firewfox via the mssing pluing dialog. What will I need to delete now? Where is this Folder, how to uninstall now properly? | 18:28 |
| sebsebseb | bharatgoyal: and also since a Flash issue with Ubuntu every now and again, in here | 18:28 |
| === Hlao-ru is now known as CR0W | ||
| dominicdinada | a standard 200 gig has about 200mb reserved for such things | 18:28 |
| Appl6 | mgmuscari: Look at "man tune2fs", specifically the -m option. | 18:28 |
| mgmuscari | dominicdinada: i don't have any partitions near that size, but i do have partitions on the order of 20gb-100gb that all started off with really weird usage numbers | 18:28 |
| alket | Hi , i acedintally removed the right panel in Gimp , how do i recover ? | 18:28 |
| DCGstudios | craig, okay then, why dont you give this a try. first 'sudo mkdir /mounthere' then execute 'sudo mount -t ext4 /dev/sdb1 /mounthere' | 18:28 |
| pdtpatrick | where is /etc/inittab or /etc/event.d or /etc/init/jobs --- did ubuntu just completely start doing its own thing? | 18:28 |
| bharatgoyal | sebsebseb: Business issues.. no testing is done on ubuntu.. Red-hat/CentOs are the architecture preferred | 18:28 |
| mgmuscari | reserved blocks percentage | 18:28 |
| mgmuscari | 5% | 18:28 |
| mgmuscari | alright | 18:28 |
| sebsebseb | bharatgoyal: oh | 18:28 |
| DCGstudios | craig, then try to 'cd /mounthere' and see if you can see some files | 18:28 |
| mgmuscari | makes sense now | 18:28 |
| mgmuscari | that's a neat little feature | 18:29 |
| sebsebseb | bharatgoyal: well I guess should start testing on Ubuntu soon really as well then, since it's starting to get pretty popular on the desktop | 18:29 |
| pdtpatrick | where is /etc/inittab or /etc/event.d or /etc/init/jobs --- did ubuntu just completely start doing its own thing? | 18:29 |
| Appl6 | mgmuscari: You can use tune2fs -m N to use only N%. | 18:29 |
| perlsyntax | No one use eacs 23.2 in here | 18:29 |
| bharatgoyal | sebsebseb: and nwy i am a open source enthuthiast, trying to set up open source communities in Adobe :-) | 18:29 |
| dominicdinada | mgmuscari: 720mb on a 1 TB drive seems right around what it should be for the file tables... | 18:29 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: ok | 18:29 |
| Appl6 | mgmuscari: You should not set it to zero. I have a 1TB drive that I set to 3%. | 18:29 |
| mgmuscari | dominicdinada: i had 720mb used on a 40gb partition when i created it. seemed excessive to me. | 18:29 |
| pdtpatrick | anyone? where is /etc/inittab or /etc/event.d or /etc/init/jobs --- did ubuntu just completely start doing its own thing? | 18:30 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: re installing might not fix the issue though | 18:30 |
| mgmuscari | Appl6: i'll probably just leave it the way it is, it just made me wonder | 18:30 |
| llutz | Appl6: on pure data-partitions its fine to set it to 0 | 18:30 |
| pdtpatrick | looked around and appartently ubuntu uses upstar | 18:30 |
| pdtpatrick | upstart | 18:30 |
| onetinsoldier | !upstart | 18:30 |
| ubottu | Upstart is meant to replace the old Sys V Init system with an event-driven init model. For more information please see: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/ | 18:30 |
| spikeb | yes it does. | 18:30 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: also I suggest first trying another browser such as Epiphany so sudo apt-get install epiphany-browser | 18:30 |
| pdtpatrick | but i dont see no /etc/events.d | 18:30 |
| joaopinto | pdtpatrick, Ubuntu uses upstart, and it's config dir is /etc/init | 18:30 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: tell me if you get the issue in this browser as well | 18:30 |
| Appl6 | llutz: Keeping some free space helps avoid fragmentation, but yes you _can_. | 18:30 |
| bharatgoyal | wireless(broadcom) not working on lucid.. anyone with a solution here? | 18:30 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: yes you have tried Chrome as well, but Epiphany tends to work nicely with Flash, when Firefox won't, in Ubuntu | 18:30 |
| pdtpatrick | @joaopinto so basically it uses those .conf to process the /etc/init.d scripts? | 18:30 |
| bharatgoyal | i had karmic installed previously.. | 18:31 |
| === ubuntu__ is now known as lontra | ||
| victoria | just deleted my .macromedia folder | 18:31 |
| victoria | uhhm . | 18:31 |
| bharatgoyal | upgraded to lucid lynx.. and wi-fi not working | 18:31 |
| mgmuscari | bharatgoyal: you could try the broadcom linux drivers from the manufacturer's website | 18:31 |
| craig | DCGstudios: thank you, its mounted | 18:31 |
| joaopinto | pdtpatrick, one of those .conf is responsible for the init.d scripts invocation, for compatibility | 18:31 |
| mgmuscari | bharatgoyal: OR | 18:31 |
| victoria | lemme try - I don't like chrome | 18:31 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: Was that Chrome from Google itself? or Chromeium from the Ubuntu repo by the way? | 18:31 |
| gps23 | karamjit: hi | 18:31 |
| mgmuscari | bharatgoyal: check to see if there are proprietary drivers available to be enabled | 18:31 |
| craig | DCGstudios: so by the looks the drive is being dumb and has forgotten its partition? | 18:31 |
| dominicdinada | mgmuscari: What was the drive formated to ? NTFS, EXT2, EXT3,EXT4 ? Swap ? | 18:31 |
| mgmuscari | dominicdinada: ext4 | 18:31 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: yes I don't like Chrome/Chromeium much myself | 18:31 |
| victoria | Chrome from Google, I like simplicity but this is a little too plain | 18:31 |
| DCGstudios | craig, now thats its mounted if you execute fdisk -l does it show up? | 18:32 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: it's a little to plain? | 18:32 |
| xsaiddx | hello guys | 18:32 |
| perlsyntax | i was thinking it good ideas to compile gcc from source on 9.10and other software? | 18:32 |
| joaopinto | DCGstudios, it would not be able to mount it in the first place if it was not listed on fdisk :) | 18:32 |
| bharatgoyal | mgmuscari: i have already installed b43cutter and broadcom 802.11 sta driver | 18:32 |
| xsaiddx | i wanna install sun-java6-jre | 18:32 |
| joaopinto | !source | perlsyntax | 18:32 |
| ubottu | perlsyntax: You can easily fetch a package's source with apt-get. See: http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/apt-howto/ch-sourcehandling.en.html | 18:32 |
| pdtpatrick | @joaopinto so basically if i wanted to change run levels i would have to create /etc/inittab and put the configurations in there or can i just type telinit <runlevel> and that should work ? | 18:32 |
| sebsebseb | xsaiddx: ah yes | 18:32 |
| sebsebseb | xsaiddx: your on 10.04 or? | 18:32 |
| craig | DCGstudios: exactly the same, it still doesnt see a partition and no additional devices | 18:32 |
| DCGstudios | joaopinto, it wasnt on fdisk i looked at his pastebin | 18:32 |
| xsaiddx | but idont kno wht depot i shoud add | 18:32 |
| vkramar | have some troubles enabling PHP in userdir on 10.04. already tried both /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/php5.conf and /etc/apache2/conf.d/php-in-homedirs.conf as described on wiki, but no success | 18:33 |
| xsaiddx | yeh im on lubuntu 10.4 | 18:33 |
| joaopinto | pdtpatrick, if you want to change the runlevel you use telinit, using inittab will have no purpose | 18:33 |
| alket | How can I add this to Ubuntu 10.04 : http://goo.gl/crbK ? | 18:33 |
| victoria | sebsebseb: I miss the menu bar, and don't like this window on the right for browsing history, maybe I miss something here but comming from Firefox it looks strange to me | 18:33 |
| sebsebseb | xsaiddx: is 10.04 it's in the partners repo, which you would have to enable | 18:33 |
| sebsebseb | !java | xsaiddx | 18:33 |
| ubottu | xsaiddx: 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) | 18:33 |
| joaopinto | DCGstudios, if it wasn't on fdisk it would not mount :) | 18:33 |
| DCGstudios | joaopinto, well it wasnt, and it just did :) | 18:33 |
| perlsyntax | yes joaopinto | 18:33 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: :) I know exactly what you mean I think | 18:33 |
| badnaam | hello all, can someone help me with why my ethernet isnt working? please..http://pastie.org/958162 | 18:33 |
| joaopinto | DCGstudios, did he did sudo fdisk -l ? (note the sudo) | 18:33 |
| gharz | bharatgoyal: what's ur broadcom model? | 18:33 |
| gharz | 43xx? | 18:34 |
| pdtpatrick | @joaopinto won't the filesystem read the /etc dir and notice the inittab file in there then force to adjust to the runlevel? wow that sucks how they completely went their own way | 18:34 |
| mgmuscari | bharatgoyal: having multiple driver packages installed might cause problems | 18:34 |
| DCGstudios | joaopinto, lol yes.. | 18:34 |
| pdtpatrick | *sigh* | 18:34 |
| victoria | :-) I am spoiled | 18:34 |
| FloodBot1 | pdtpatrick: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 18:34 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: plus also in my case, on the right next to the url bar and how no file and edit menu, reminds me of those horrible Internet Explorer 7 and 8 browsers | 18:34 |
| DCGstudios | joaopinto, hence the problem | 18:34 |
| xsaiddx | well i wanna sun-java6-jre to make fostwire work | 18:34 |
| perlsyntax | ubottu you a bot? | 18:34 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 18:34 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: anyway as I suggested before. sudo apt-get install epiphany-browser then tell me if you get the issue in this as well | 18:34 |
| joaopinto | pdelgallego, no, as far as I know /etc/inittab is not supported at all | 18:34 |
| joaopinto | ops was for pdtpatrick ^ | 18:34 |
| victoria | one moment, Epih. is installing | 18:34 |
| craig | joaopinto, yes with the sudo | 18:35 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: by the way Epiphany is actsually the default browser for Gnome, but most Gnome based distros, will use Firefox instead | 18:35 |
| DCGstudios | craig, if youd like to keep it mounted on startup then you should go ahead and edit your fstab file and you should be good to go | 18:35 |
| joaopinto | victoria, the flash plugin is not to be installed via the browser | 18:35 |
| pdtpatrick | wow this really throws me off.. makes it really hard studying for linux exams when u find newer configurations daily | 18:35 |
| joaopinto | victoria, there is a package on the repository to install flash, | 18:35 |
| mgmuscari | i've just set up a netbook running a broadcom 43xx (4313 i think?) with lucid and the wifi is working with the proprietary driver package activated | 18:35 |
| joaopinto | !flash | victoria | 18:35 |
| craig | DCGstudios: excellent thank you for your help. | 18:35 |
| ubottu | victoria: To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - See also !Restricted and !Gnash | 18:35 |
| DCGstudios | craig, as for it not detecting the drive, i really dont know. you might have to mount it to a specific directory like i showed you to access the files. | 18:35 |
| perlsyntax | i was ask it good idea to do it by sourcecode yourself? | 18:35 |
| DCGstudios | craig, no problem, good luck. | 18:35 |
| mgmuscari | the kernel it's running is 2.6.32-22-generic | 18:35 |
| xsaiddx | sebsebseb: can you help me hoe can i add the depot please | 18:35 |
| sebsebseb | Japsteri: victoria yeah uhmmm if you got the message you need to install Flash graphically when doing Firefox, that will have done it if it worked | 18:36 |
| alket | How can I add this to Ubuntu 10.04 : http://goo.gl/crbK ? | 18:36 |
| jpds | perlsyntax: Compile gcc? | 18:36 |
| sebsebseb | Japsteri: victoria if you installed Flash yourself for the browsers from outside the repo, you may have an issue | 18:36 |
| mgmuscari | dominicdinada: if you're interested, http://pastebin.com/Yk0MjP6R | 18:36 |
| perlsyntax | yes | 18:36 |
| dominicdinada | mgmuscari: http://bobcares.com/blog/?p=485 | 18:36 |
| perlsyntax | jpds,becuase i can't get 10.04 on this laptop that why. | 18:36 |

| hrw | hi | 18:37 |
| === hrw is now known as hrw-uds | ||
| sebsebseb | victoria: how exactly did you install Flash? | 18:37 |
| mgmuscari | dominicdinada: at the time i guessed that all the extra space being used was due to it being a journaling fs | 18:37 |
| Jordan_U | !boot | rdogg | 18:37 |
| ubottu | rdogg: Boot options: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions - To add/remove startup services, you can use the package 'bum', or update-rc.d - To add your own startup scripts, use /etc/rc.local - See also !grub and !dualboot - Making a boot floppy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto/BootFloppy - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SmartBootManagerHowto | 18:37 |
| perlsyntax | jpds, what you think? | 18:37 |
| hrw-uds | someone can tell me how to disable upstart init job from starting? I do not mean "stop squid" by this | 18:37 |
| dominicdinada | mgmuscari: so you are complaining that you have 10 paritions on the drive and it is using so much space? for each parition it is creating new file tables/journals | 18:37 |
| bharatgoyal | gharz: broadcom 802.11 43xx smthing | 18:37 |
| wgrant | perlsyntax: Upgrade to Ubuntu 10.04 LTS. | 18:37 |
| DCGstudios | badnaam, is this in assosiation with an upgrade? or just a general connectivity problem? | 18:37 |
| rdogg | ubottu: i cant go to websites oon terminal -_- | 18:37 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 18:37 |
| pdtpatrick | @badnaam why is your domain belkin ? | 18:38 |
| perlsyntax | wgrant, i can't it to work on this laptop. | 18:38 |
| xsaiddx | sebsebseb: okay tnx ill test now | 18:38 |
| perlsyntax | that why i am useing 9.10 | 18:38 |
| mgmuscari | dominicdinada: with a 320gb drive i'm not lacking for space anymore, i just thought it was a little out of the ordinary - i was moving over from ext3 and hadn't seen that kind of usage on an empty partition before | 18:38 |
| jpds | perlsyntax: Why can't you? | 18:38 |
| pdtpatrick | @badnaam is ur dnsserver really belkin? | 18:38 |
| victoria | sebsebseb: I installed Flash with Firefox, it shows missing plugin, I clicked on this and it worked. | 18:38 |
| vkramar | have some troubles enabling PHP in userdir on 10.04. already tried both /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/php5.conf and /etc/apache2/conf.d/php-in-homedirs.conf as described on wiki, but no success. can anybody point me right way? | 18:38 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: ok :) | 18:38 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: that will have probably got it from the Ubuntu repo then, but maybe not | 18:39 |
| DCGstudios | lol pdtpatrick, was just gunna say the same thing | 18:39 |
| mgmuscari | sda1 is all those ntfs partitions | 18:39 |
| perlsyntax | something do with my card | 18:39 |
| perlsyntax | i hear tere was a bug | 18:39 |
| perlsyntax | there | 18:39 |
| dominicdinada | mgmuscari: it is also known that ext4's overhead is bigger http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ext4 | 18:39 |
| pdtpatrick | @DCGstudios haha yeah its one of those wow thats interesting | 18:39 |
| craig | DCGstudios: found the main issue, fstab was telling it that sdb1 was ntfs .. thus the confusion. thank you loads for your help. | 18:39 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: have you tried Flash in epiphany yet? | 18:39 |
| Appl6 | rdogg: Jordan_U was the one who told the bot to tell you that. Also, try all of the following commands: links, elinks, lynx, w3m. Those are all command line web browsers. | 18:39 |
| AhmedBH | Hello, How do i turn OFF Or Disable Apache2 ?????? | 18:39 |
| victoria | ok, Flash works in Epiphany (although I deleted the macromedia folder) let's see for how long i have sound ... | 18:39 |
| DCGstudios | craig, awsome glad it works. | 18:40 |
| AhmedBH | after a while it starts up again | 18:40 |
| dominicdinada | mgmuscari: your missing the point EACH partition is its "own" drive space" containing the file system overhead | 18:40 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: the macromedia folder ? | 18:40 |
| perlsyntax | jpds.hardware bug | 18:40 |
| jrc | I trying to get my Netbook to act like an Accesspoint. I have installed the Madwifi drivers and put the accesspoint into Master mode: "iwconfig ath0 mode Master essid JirawanNet channel auto key off" but I cannot see it from other computers - does anyone have any experience with this? | 18:40 |
| jpds | perlsyntax: Have you tried the LiveCD to confirm that there is a bug? | 18:40 |
| victoria | no sound | 18:40 |
| victoria | crap | 18:40 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: ok | 18:40 |
| perlsyntax | jpds,Yes i did | 18:40 |
| mgmuscari | dominicdinada: no, i understand that fine. i hadn't considered the overhead of the journals / etc | 18:40 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: what's this about a macromedia folder though? | 18:40 |
| dominicdinada | mgmuscari: further more that is in no kind of setup i would ever suggest using... 10 partitions on 1 drive | 18:40 |
| jpds | perlsyntax: And? | 18:41 |
| renic | in older versions of ubuntu, there was an item under administrartion called services. I used this to enable ssh and nxserver, but in the new ubuntu I can't find it. Anyone able to point my in the right direction? | 18:41 |
| Appl6 | dominicdinada: I'm not all that familiar with filesystems, but one would expect the filesystem overhead to be roughly proportional to the amount of used space, so multiple partitions shouldn't waste that much more space. | 18:41 |
| anirvana | hello folks! | 18:41 |
| xsaiddx | sebsebseb: it keeps tellin me there's no packeage for sun-java6-jre | 18:41 |
| badnaam | well its a belkin router, i did not put that name in there, its 192.168.2.1 | 18:41 |
| jpds | renic: Yes; it's been removed in the transition to Upstart from sysinit-rc. | 18:41 |
| sebsebseb | xsaiddx: make sure the partner repo is checked in software sources | 18:41 |
| anirvana | I am having a terrible problem with my ubuntu :( | 18:41 |
| mgmuscari | dominicdinada: any reason why not? | 18:41 |
| perlsyntax | jpds,a i get it boot up and then i get a black sceen. | 18:41 |
| sebsebseb | xsaiddx: also you wil need to re load your sources list | 18:41 |
| DCGstudios | badnaam, can you get a ping out of your network? | 18:41 |
| dominicdinada | Appl6: when they create a new filesystem it creates a new filetable as if it is its own drive... | 18:41 |
| lucid_lynx | how can you switch from metacity to compiz as window manager? | 18:42 |
| xsaiddx | sebsebseb: i jst did do ineed to reload em from synptic ?? | 18:42 |
| Appl6 | dominicdinada: Yes, but that isn't that big on its own unless it is populated with many files. | 18:42 |
| victoria | I have sound with Flash Music Player on other web sites, it's only with YouTube I believe | 18:42 |
| TLF | hello | 18:42 |
| sebsebseb | xsaiddx: once partner repo is enabled, reload the software list | 18:42 |
| sebsebseb | xsaiddx: you could do that in Synaptic | 18:42 |
| anirvana | I un-installed libstdc++ 6 on my ubuntu, Now no software is working!!! :( | 18:42 |
| perlsyntax | jpds,what you think? | 18:42 |
| K3nny | hello can somone help me pls? i got problem on installing ubuntu.. | 18:42 |
| sebsebseb | !ask | K3nny | 18:42 |
| ubottu | K3nny: 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. :-) | 18:42 |
| Appl6 | anirvana: Yikes. Did you try reinstalling it? =) | 18:43 |
| dominicdinada | Appl6: it is reserving the space ahead of time he had 10 partitions, 720mb reserved... thats 10/720mb = 72mb | 18:43 |
| victoria | how can I uninstall Flash that was installed by Firefox? | 18:43 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: Epihany uses the Firefox Flash | 18:43 |
| mgmuscari | dominicdinada: the only way i could see myself using any less partitions is to merge /usr into / | 18:43 |
| TLF | I'm getting in the MB connector a "tac tac tac" sound in the speakers, but If I do connect that to the front connector I don't hear them. This problem doesn't happens in Windows, so what can I do? | 18:43 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: if you have the proper FIrefox flash already installed | 18:43 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: Epiphany will use it no problem | 18:43 |
| badnaam | no, when ethernet is connected the ping to 192.168.2.1 says "sendmsg :operation not permitted", | 18:43 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: ok you might get the sound issue, but that's something else | 18:43 |
| victoria | sound stops after 45 secondes | 18:43 |
| badnaam | if I ping google.com, it says" uknown host" google.com | 18:43 |
| perlsyntax | ow do i compile gcc? | 18:43 |
| perlsyntax | how | 18:43 |
| dominicdinada | mgmuscari: it could lead to drive failure over time... :/ | 18:44 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: right so you opended Epiphany tried to do Flash, and it said you needed to install the plugin? | 18:44 |
| DCGstudios | badnaam, sounds like a problem with your DNS server | 18:44 |
| Appl6 | perlsyntax: You really should have Googled that, but http://gcc.gnu.org/install/ | 18:44 |
| xsaiddx | sebsebseb: i went to that oglet named other software where there's CD-ROM thingy at the first | 18:44 |
| anirvana | Apple6 : My internet is no more working on ubuntu, I can't even open my browser in it, so couldn't reinstall it! | 18:44 |
| mgmuscari | but i always keep separate /boot and /home partitions, so that would be 3 ext4 partitions plus a swap partition for linux, and then the 3 NTFS partitions that i have allocated there, one for boot and manufacturer utils, one for windows, and one for file storage between windows/linux | 18:44 |
| victoria | sebsebseb: I want to uninstall Flash now | 18:44 |
| K3nny | yeah ok... i want to install ubuntu over USB on my netbook, i downloaded the iso for netbooks but the usb-creator.exe ( on windows7 64 bit ) wont work the button "Make startup disk" is grey | 18:44 |
| badnaam | ok, what configuration should I change? | 18:44 |
| victoria | no idea where the files are | 18:44 |
| guest12573 | how do we tell WHEN is a folder first created? I found, that the folder's date is affected by modification time of the files inside it..Because of this, i cannot tell when was the folder got created. The answer to this question shall tell me the date at /home/$USER .... | 18:44 |
| badnaam | the dns server is just a wireless router, the wireless works fine | 18:44 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: that's easy enough to find out | 18:44 |
| perlsyntax | App16,should i remove the gcc i got? | 18:44 |
| perlsyntax | before i compile | 18:44 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: ever used Synaptic? | 18:44 |
| Appl6 | anirvana: How did you uninstall libstdc++? | 18:44 |
| mgmuscari | dominicdinada: i don't see how... unless you mean due to increased head seeking | 18:44 |
| badnaam | if I login to the windows partition on the same box, using the same card and cable, ethernet works just fine | 18:44 |
| xsaiddx | victoria: go to software-centre and remove it | 18:45 |
| DCGstudios | badnaam, try to 'ping 74.125.19.99' (google) | 18:45 |
| victoria | sebsebseb: I thought so, that's why I deleted the hidden macromedia folder | 18:45 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: well I guess the Software Centre will say if you got Flash installed from the repo, even | 18:45 |
| dominicdinada | Appl6: mgmuscari so 72mb on average per drive is not much while ext4 uses larger overhead and ntfs and ext3 use less | 18:45 |
| hello | i am having problem to install k3b. When i run this command "sudo apt-get install k3b " then this output: Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have | 18:45 |

| hello | the package is simply not installable and a bug report against | 18:45 |
| onetinsoldier | perlsyntax: no. you'll be using the gcc you currently have installed to compile the new version | 18:45 |
| victoria | sebsebseb: Not Synpatic, Firefox installed Flash for me, so where is it now? | 18:45 |
| dominicdinada | mgmuscari: if you just stated the reason to me why are you asking that is one of the reasons | 18:45 |
| Appl6 | perlsyntax: I wouldn't recommend it, just call your new gcc something like newgcc, so you can pick which one you want to use. Then you can keep getting package upgrades for the other. | 18:45 |
| K3nny | did anyone read my question?... | 18:45 |
| guest12573 | "stat" comes close but still is not the answer. The date of .bashrc is also an approximation.... | 18:45 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: ok yeah, ever used the Software Centre or Synaptic? | 18:45 |

| anirvana | Apple6 : From synaptic package manager, but now even the synaptic package manager is not accessible! :( | 18:45 |
| victoria | I know Synaptic, yes | 18:45 |
| mgmuscari | dominicdinada: what would lead to drive failure over time? i'm curious | 18:45 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: ok open Synaptic and search for Flash | 18:45 |
| perlsyntax | App16,i wish there was a deb file out for the new gcc. | 18:46 |

| sebsebseb | victoria: and see if it's installed or not, if so tell me what's installed | 18:46 |
| dominicdinada | mgmuscari: you just said so yourself... increased drive wear... | 18:46 |
| K3nny | pls help :: i want to install ubuntu over USB on my netbook, i downloaded the iso for netbooks but the usb-creator.exe ( on windows7 64 bit ) wont work the button "Make startup disk" is grey | 18:46 |
| badnaam | ok, let me try to ping google's ip, instead, I will be disconnected once I just on the ethernet, so I will be back. | 18:46 |
| ricardoromao | badnaam, if don't work, put a DNS Server IP like opendns | 18:46 |
| onetinsoldier | perlsyntax: what gcc version is this that you want? | 18:46 |
| badnaam | opendns? | 18:46 |
| Appl6 | anirvana: I think the problem is that uninstalling libstdc++ uninstalled a whole bunch of other things. Do you have access to a command line? | 18:46 |

| pdtpatrick | @badnaam log into your router, look at the dns addresses and then go back to /etc/resolv.conf .. put the dns in there and then restart network with /etc/init.d/networking restart | 18:47 |
| K3nny | help anyone pls? :( | 18:47 |
| dominicdinada | mgmuscari: on a side note solid state drives dont suffer from this problem and they are faster .... but more expensive as of now | 18:47 |
| onetinsoldier | perlsyntax: you can use the 'checkinstall' program to make a .deb package of something you compile on your system | 18:47 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: ah yes now I remember, I had a similar issue before | 18:47 |
| hello | problem to install k3b | 18:47 |
| perlsyntax | i see | 18:47 |
| mgmuscari | dominicdinada: ah so that is the reason. hmm, would be interesting to look at how that would pan out... i guess if i lumped all of my linux stuff into one partition the data would mostly be located at the beginning of the partition, and the average distance of a seek across tracks would be lower | 18:47 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: or maybe not exactly | 18:47 |
| anirvana | Apple6 : yes I installed so many other things, I saw it happening but couldn't abort it midway! I can even access my terminal. | 18:47 |
| moody | Help! My System/Preferences/Screen Resolution is GONE! Where did it go? | 18:47 |
| perlsyntax | So i download and make a deb file for it. | 18:47 |
| anirvana | Apple : It uninstalled* | 18:47 |
| victoria | there is Flashplugin-nonfree, shall we :-) | 18:47 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: Is it only Youtube that you want Flash for? | 18:47 |
| perlsyntax | if i am right. | 18:47 |
| Appl6 | perlsyntax: There's actually a gcc 4.5 out now. Try http://packages.debian.org/experimental/gcc-4.5-base | 18:48 |
| mgmuscari | dominicdinada: yeah, i can't wait until ssd's fall into a feasible price range | 18:48 |

| sebsebseb | victoria: however maybe not just yet | 18:50 |
| xsaiddx | sebsebseb: i checked the line bfore the last one | 18:50 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: first let's make sure you installed Flash properly | 18:50 |
| xsaiddx | sebsebseb: and reload via synaptic but still cant | 18:50 |
| victoria | I uninstalled flash now | 18:50 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: so remove flashplugin-nonfree and flashpluing-installer | 18:50 |
| |Z_E_R_O| | hola | 18:50 |
| deumosekto | Hello everyone, i am in the process of migrating from windows to Linux (hold for applause) lol and i need help with WINE | 18:51 |
| victoria | sebsebseb: that's what I did | 18:51 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: then install flashplugin-installer | 18:51 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: and try again | 18:51 |
| deumosekto | anyone wanna waste their time ont me? | 18:51 |
| deumosekto | lol | 18:51 |

| sebsebseb | deumosekto: maybe | 18:51 |
| sebsebseb | deumosekto: depending on what you want help with | 18:51 |
| spikeb | deumosekto, possibly, what sort of help you need? | 18:51 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: ok there's Swfdec as well | 18:51 |
| sebsebseb | !info swfdec | 18:51 |
| anirvana | APPLE6, I think it would work because my terminal was open while the un-installation was done and I was able to use it even after that, It's just I couldn't access the terminal from the drop down menu on the desktop! | 18:51 |
| ubottu | Package swfdec does not exist in lucid | 18:51 |
| deumosekto | i need help with the WINE enviroment | 18:51 |
| rocket16 | Friends, which is better? RSS on Evolution, or any RSS reader? | 18:51 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: however that one does not seem to be in the repo | 18:51 |
| sebsebseb | deumosekto: What do you want to install in there? | 18:52 |
| victoria | and gansh doesn't work | 18:52 |
| xsaiddx | sebsebseb: can you please give me it as a commande line | 18:52 |

| perlsyntax | onetinsoldier,i download it and i don't see it. | 18:52 |
| xsaiddx | so like that we can be sure cus fom what i kno i did cheked the line that matters but there's no change | 18:52 |
| sebsebseb | xsaiddx: sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre or whatever the command was | 18:52 |
| Appl6 | anirvana: Ha, there's no E in my nick. Try typing "app" then Tab. Can you try it please? If you have command line access we can start fixing stuff. | 18:52 |
| badnaam | ok ,i ping google's ip 74.125.19.99 and it says "sendmsg: operation not permitted" | 18:52 |
| ricardoromao | deumosekto, use cedega! | 18:52 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: ok don't worry | 18:52 |
| xsaiddx | sebsebseb: no i mean how to add the partner depot | 18:53 |
| roachXxX | badnaam, firewall blocking you | 18:53 |
| hubar | Question, is there anyway to customize the new Messenging Menu in Lucid? | 18:53 |
| onetinsoldier | perlsyntax: don't see what? checkinstall? it's a command line utility | 18:53 |
| sebsebseb | xsaiddx: not sure the command, well I guess it's a edit /etc/sources.lst and yeah | 18:53 |
| deumosekto | is cedega free? | 18:53 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: ok no sound in Gnash either? | 18:53 |
| ricardoromao | deumosekto, don't | 18:53 |
| badnaam | no firewall running, i stopped it in firestarter, at least as far as I know..how do I find out? | 18:53 |
| deumosekto | what? | 18:53 |
| onetinsoldier | perlsyntax: try in 'whereis checkinstall' on the command line | 18:53 |
| perlsyntax | i talking about the deb file i download for gcc 4.5 | 18:53 |
| sebsebseb | deumosekto: Cedegea is a commerical paid for version of Wine | 18:53 |
| sebsebseb | !wine | deumosekto | 18:53 |

| deumosekto | thanks i know all that | 18:54 |
| spikeb | looks like it works. | 18:54 |
| anirvana | APPL6 , Ah sorry :) , I'll have to restart my system for that,can you tell me some other commands also so that I have to do minimum 'restarts'? | 18:54 |
| sebsebseb | deumosekto: well #winehq for help with that game in Wine | 18:54 |
| deumosekto | oh alright | 18:54 |
| deumosekto | thanks | 18:54 |
| victoria | sebsebseb: no, but the streaming doesn't even start | 18:54 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: oh | 18:55 |
| DCGstudios | badnaam, are you sure your DNS service is running? | 18:55 |
| Appl6 | anirvana: Oh! I thought you had two computers, haha sorry. | 18:55 |
| badnaam | wow! that was it, I had turned it off, but it started back on, how do I make sure it doesn't block it | 18:55 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: so Gnash won't even play the video? | 18:55 |
| Appl6 | anirvana: Give me a moment to write up the things you should try when you reboot. | 18:55 |
| deumosekto | uhh | 18:55 |
| deumosekto | what server is #winehq on | 18:55 |
| deumosekto | lol | 18:55 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: I thought that might happen, that Gnash woudn't be good enough, maybe Swfdec will be though | 18:55 |
| spikeb | this one | 18:55 |
| victoria | no | 18:55 |
| deumosekto | its empty | 18:55 |
| anirvana | APPL6 : sure, take your time, thanks | 18:55 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: anyway what I think is when it comes to Flash itself | 18:55 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: the Adobe version and Ubuntu in your case | 18:55 |
| spikeb | im there and its got 183 people | 18:56 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: is that you got some odd pulseaudio issue, that is resulting in you not having sound | 18:56 |
| victoria | this is furstrating | 18:56 |
| deumosekto | all lower case? | 18:56 |
| DCGstudios | badnaam, more specificly what was turned off? the firewall or your dns service? | 18:56 |
| onetinsoldier | perlsyntax: you'll probably want to read at least some of the following --> zless /usr/share/doc/checkinstall/README.gz | 18:56 |
| spikeb | deumosekto, aye | 18:56 |
| perlsyntax | ok | 18:56 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: yeah I know | 18:56 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: however I have some clever idea's :D | 18:56 |
| onetinsoldier | http://news.softpedia.com/news/How-to-Fix-the-Big-and-Ugly-Plymouth-Logo-in-Ubuntu-10-04-140810.shtml | 18:57 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: ok so was Ubuntu 9.10 your first version or? | 18:57 |
| victoria | I am downloading from Adobe now, let's see ... | 18:57 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: yeah that's worth a try, and make sure you install it into the correct place | 18:58 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: I have a feeling that you will have the issue with that one as well though | 18:58 |
| victoria | I also need printer sharing here and can't get this to work. I am a bit fed up... | 18:59 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: 9.10 had the issue as well, but was that your first version of Ubuntu? | 18:59 |
| victoria | 9.10 first Ubuntu I ever tried, yes | 18:59 |
| dominicdinada | sebsebseb: victoria: wouldnt Server help ? | 18:59 |
| sebsebseb | dominicdinada: what? | 18:59 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: ok and Ubuntu is your first ever Linux distribution? | 18:59 |
| dominicdinada | sebsebseb: with his printer sharing problem | 18:59 |
| sebsebseb | dominicdinada: I think victoria is a she | 19:00 |
| victoria | no, I worked with Debian, and Suse, | 19:00 |
| dominicdinada | sebsebseb: victoria sorry she :) | 19:00 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: ok and never these kind of problems with Debian or Suse? | 19:00 |
| victoria | sebsebseb: no, Flash worked fine then | 19:01 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: I think you might be having a pulse audio issue | 19:01 |
| victoria | hm, uninstall pulseaudio? | 19:01 |
| jamil_1 | Hi, my uni has recently setup a proxy through which I connect to internet. I have to configure each and every application to use that proxy along with my credential to connect to internet. Is there some way so that to each application it looks that it is connecting directly rather than through a proxy and I have to give proxy information at only one place ? | 19:01 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: as I said before. anyway right, try it directly from the Adobe website, altough I belive that's what Flash plugin installer, installs anyway | 19:01 |
| mgmuscari | sebsebseb: i'd wager that you're right on the money there | 19:02 |
| Appl6 | anirvana: Do you mind if I PM you? | 19:02 |
| mgmuscari | pulseaudio can be a huge PITA | 19:02 |
| Appl6 | anirvana: I don't want to spam this chat. | 19:02 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: sadly you can't just disable pulseaudio in Ubuntu, without probably some other issue happening with sound applet as a result | 19:02 |
| victoria | aargh | 19:02 |
| anirvana | APPL6 , Ofcourse not :) | 19:02 |
| DCGstudios | sebsebseb: if i remember correctly isnt this problem caused when ubuntu swapped alsa for pulse | 19:02 |
| victoria | what's the whole point? | 19:02 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: one reason I left Ubuntu on this computer, when 9.10 came out, and went to a distro, where I also had no sound in virtual machine issue, but where I could just disable pulseaudio graphcailly in it's control centre | 19:02 |
| ubuntu__ | You сука vika | 19:02 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: and problem solved :) | 19:02 |
| anirvana | APPL6 , Please do it. | 19:03 |
| victoria | ok, Flash Downloaded, no message about completion, where is it now? | 19:03 |
| sebsebseb | DCGstudios: yeah pulseaudio issues since Ubuntu 8.04, when they introduced it into Ubuntu | 19:03 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: you will have to extract it I guess, probably some instructions in the archeive you downloaded | 19:04 |
| victoria | anyone who ever liked pulseaudio | 19:04 |
| DCGstudios | sebsebseb: yea but they didnt totally replace alsa until 9.04 | 19:04 |
| sebsebseb | DCGstudios: alsa is still there I think, pulseaudio is a wrapper for it, or whatever | 19:04 |
| DCGstudios | ah ok | 19:04 |
| victoria | k, figured it out | 19:04 |
| Roasted | wireshark comes up with 0 interfaces listed to capture. any idea why? | 19:05 |
| xsaiddx | sebsebseb: i did add the partner repot via commande line but still cant btw im on lubuntu does it change anythin to be on lubuntu ? | 19:05 |
| DCGstudios | Roasted, yes your not running it with root privalges | 19:05 |
| sebsebseb | xsaiddx: no probably not | 19:05 |
| roachXxX | Roasted, sudo wireshark | 19:05 |
| sebsebseb | xsaiddx: except for how you won't have software sources of course | 19:05 |
| sebsebseb | xsaiddx: the system > administration > software sources | 19:06 |
| Roasted | roachXxX, DCGstudios, good call - that reminds me I used to have 2 entries of wireshark. 1 root, 1 not root. Why do I only have 1 GUI entry in the menu now? | 19:06 |
| sebsebseb | xsaiddx: ,but the one you get into from synaptic at least in Ubuntu is the same | 19:06 |
| RemunJ66 | missing connections tab to configure my wlan card. Strange. | 19:06 |
| badnaam | ok, it was my firewall, for some reason its even blocking my empathy client, | 19:06 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: sometimes hardware and things like that, sound, works better in other distros | 19:07 |
| badnaam | how do i make sure it doesn't block things? esypecially my eth0, I right clicked and allowed communication from port 60xxx0 for empathy but it didn't really wor | 19:07 |
| xsaiddx | sebsebseb: yeh but istil cant install the java packege it says there's no package with that name | 19:07 |
| roachXxX | Roasted, open a terminal, so type, (sudo wireshark &) | 19:07 |
| badnaam | it gets turned on anytime I plugin something new in or i start empathy or a browser etc | 19:07 |
| Roasted | roachXxX, I know - but I'd kind of rather have the entry back in my menu that requires root pw when I open it like I used to have. any idea how I can get that back? | 19:07 |
| RemunJ66 | Anyone here who can help me on fixing a wireless connection in Lucid | 19:08 |
| victoria | hm, sound plays longer then a minute now | 19:08 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: sound for Youtube and such in Flash, I have another two idea's that would probalby work, but they are a bit sucky really | 19:08 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: oh right nice :) | 19:08 |
| DCGstudios | Roasted, change the menu entry line with "sudo" in the front | 19:08 |
| victoria | I am just waiting for the next cutt off | 19:09 |
| Roasted | DCGstudios, ahh yeah. didnt think about that. | 19:09 |
| Linuxhippy | Hello, I would like to report problems with the nouveau driver, but where can I file a bug? | 19:09 |
| Linuxhippy | I read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs, but ... how does I actually file it? | 19:09 |
| Roasted | DCGstudios, still not sure why it changed, though. I mean how are people supposed to use wireshark if theyre NOT root? | 19:09 |
| badnaam | pdpatrick you still there? | 19:09 |
| DCGstudios | Roasted, they cant at all | 19:09 |
| DCGstudios | Roasted, access to sniff interface packets REQUIRES root | 19:09 |
| Roasted | DCGstudios, hmm. failing to see the point on why it installed like that. | 19:09 |
| victoria | yeeaaah, it stopped again | 19:10 |
| Linuxhippy | howto file a bug? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs doesn't explain where to file it? | 19:10 |
| llutz | Roasted: unprivileged users can use wireshark to inspect capture-files | 19:10 |
| victoria | monster | 19:10 |
| Worms | Hi any one here with working USB wireless in Lucid? | 19:10 |
| gucko | guys I installed IDEA IDE for Java and followed this tutorial to set it up: http://smartproteam.com/installing-intellij-idea-on-ubuntu/ but when I try to run it, I get: exec: 67: ”/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/”/bin/java: not found | 19:10 |
| Roasted | llutz, even still, having a root option and non root option made sense. Not having a root option makes no sense. | 19:10 |
| DCGstudios | Roasted, llutz, yes they can access capture files but they cant access the interface to begin a sniff | 19:10 |
| gucko | what should I do please? | 19:10 |
| DCGstudios | victoria: i belive i know the soultion.. your currently on pulse using firefox right? | 19:11 |
| sebsebseb | xsaiddx: oh I see that your already in #lubuntu I was going to suggest going there | 19:11 |
| Roasted | DCGstudios, I erdited the menu to be sudo wireshark, and even still it wont launch | 19:11 |
| Roasted | nice, wireshark | 19:11 |
| victoria | I think so | 19:11 |
| DCGstudios | Roasted, i wasnt sure that would really work lol ill go see what i did | 19:11 |
| gps23 | i am not able to unidirectional video chat in empathy. getting error "can't link source". Please help | 19:12 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: try this | 19:12 |
| Roasted | DCGstudios, I don't see why it wouldn't. the command to launch it is wireshark. adding sudo to it would make sense to prompt me for PW | 19:12 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: after closing all Flash stuff down | 19:12 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: killall pulseaudio | 19:12 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: then try Flash again | 19:12 |
| victoria | heh, ok | 19:12 |
| marel | How to gain root ? | 19:12 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: that used to work with 8.04, when thse kind of issues | 19:12 |
| victoria | what is libflashsupport? | 19:12 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: well losing sound issue yeah | 19:12 |
| sebsebseb | !info libflashsupport | 19:13 |
| xsaiddx | sebsebseb: yes but still cant even now im pretty sure that i added the partner repot | 19:13 |
| ubottu | Package libflashsupport does not exist in lucid | 19:13 |
| boxer- | i have samba all setup, but i can only access shared folders that have "allow access to everyone" selected | 19:13 |
| xsaiddx | sebsebseb: must i put lubuntu instead of lucide ?? | 19:13 |
| xsaiddx | on the apt adresse | 19:13 |
| sebsebseb | xsaiddx: no | 19:13 |
| sebsebseb | xsaiddx: Lubuntu uses the same repo's | 19:13 |
| DCGstudios | Roasted, So i looked it up and remember there were a couple different approaches | 19:14 |
| xsaiddx | sebsebseb: so any idea why i cant get the java thingy | 19:14 |
| DCGstudios | Roasted, http://wiki.wireshark.org/CaptureSetup/CapturePrivileges this one creates a seperate group with just enough privalges to run wireshark | 19:14 |
| moromethe | heeelllllppppppp i have a problem , plzz chat with me "private" for those who are willing to discuss serious | 19:14 |
| sebsebseb | xsaiddx: no | 19:14 |
| sebsebseb | xsaiddx: except for how | 19:14 |
| mgmuscari | boxer-: to mount a samba share using credentials, append the following to your mount command: -o username=whatever | 19:14 |
| sebsebseb | xsaiddx: your sources might not be set up properly | 19:14 |
| DCGstudios | Roasted, therefore you can run it without being root and still capture via the "wireshark" group youll create | 19:15 |
| mgmuscari | boxer-: it'll prompt you for your password | 19:15 |
| ionut | how can i change the keyboard language in ubuntu 10.04 LTS ? | 19:15 |
| gps23 | karamjit: what say? | 19:15 |
| xsaiddx | sebsebseb: dude ihave karmic and not lucide | 19:15 |
| xsaiddx | does it make diffrence | 19:15 |
| sebsebseb | xsaiddx: if they are ok, you should be able to source synaptic and have java showing for example | 19:15 |
| sebsebseb | xsaiddx: oh | 19:15 |
| mgmuscari | boxer-: if you want details on how to set up a credentials file and put the samba shares in your fstab, pm me | 19:15 |
| Roasted | DCGstudios, I see. EVEN STILL... it's a bad move not having the root option in the menu. Sigh. | 19:15 |
| sebsebseb | xsaiddx: that explains it then | 19:15 |
| sebsebseb | xsaiddx: I thought you said Lucid earlier | 19:15 |
| sebsebseb | xsaiddx: you want to enable universe for Karmic | 19:15 |
| hubar | err, where do they have better documentation on indicator applet... | 19:16 |
| xsaiddx | well yeah i am on 10.4 but i jst saay on apt-list its karmic patner | 19:16 |
| DCGstudios | Roasted, im pretty sure i just chmod'ed something and made it available to every user, i can look that up if you want. it was quite a bit simpler, and quite a bit less secure. | 19:16 |
| theadmin | User home folder on a NTFS partition doesn't seem possible, right? | 19:16 |
| gps23 | i am not able to do one sided video chat in empathy. any solution? | 19:16 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: any luck? | 19:16 |
| theadmin | Just a question by a friend. I'm not crazy :D | 19:16 |
| Roasted | DCGstudios, naw, it's all good. I dont have a problem using terminal to launch it. I just think its stupid that functionality was removed from the menu | 19:16 |
| badnaam | my firewall is going nuts, how do make it not block my ethernet and empathy? | 19:16 |
| victoria | testing ... pulseaudio killed ... | 19:17 |
| theadmin | badnaam: If you don't now how, you didn't make it do so | 19:17 |
| xsaiddx | sebsebseb: thanks a lot | 19:17 |
| xsaiddx | have fun guys | 19:17 |
| xsaiddx | peace out | 19:17 |

| DCGstudios | Roasted, you can just alt + f2 and run sudo wireshark from there, or terminal yea. | 19:17 |
| theadmin | "sudo service pulseaudio stop" --- "pulse audio configured for per-user sessions" - ?!? | 19:17 |
| badnaam | well, it is blocking things, and I certainly didn't do it, its a relatively new install, waht can i do now? | 19:17 |
| sebsebseb | theadmin: who's that @ victoria ? | 19:17 |
| theadmin | badnaam: It doesn't block em then... | 19:17 |
| erUSUL | theadmin: pulse does not start with the system. it starts witheach session | 19:18 |

| Xerran | Hello all | 19:18 |
| theadmin | erUSUL: so i just... killall pulseaudio? | 19:18 |
| costre | badnaam, Run firestarter and check if there is any obvious settings that are wrong | 19:18 |

| discozohan | ok, thanks ;) | 19:18 |

| onetinsoldier | sure | 19:19 |

| DCGstudios | victoria: why dont you go ahead and try another approach to the problem since that obviously isnt working | 19:19 |
| theadmin | erUSUL: What about restarting it? Man this is confusing :/ | 19:19 |
| badnaam | there are lots of events coming from port 60870 but even if I allow "everyone" on that port, it still gets blocked | 19:19 |
| max101 | hi | 19:19 |
| badnaam | the only way I can get on empathy or use my ehternet is if I stop firewall on firestarter | 19:19 |

| Typh | Is anyone else having trouble clicking titlebars since 10.04? My click often goes through to some window underneath instead | 19:20 |
| sebsebseb | victoria: 1. get really annoyed about this trying to get things working some how. 2. maybe remove pulseaudio from Ubuntu, but not really a good idea, and you probably don't really need to. 3. Change to a distro where you can easilly disable pulseaudio without issues being caused. 4. Try a Windows browser in Wine and Flash in that (but then at same time :( you would help with Windows browser market share unless the user agent is canged) 5. | 19:20 |
| DCGstudios | victoria, then change the line "FIREFOX_DSP=”none”" to "FIREFOX_DSP=”aoss” | 19:20 |
| sebsebseb | Do well another Linux distro in a virtual machine, if your computer can handle it, for Flash. | 19:20 |

| badnaam | what is ufw? lemme check | 19:21 |
| erUSUL | !ufw | 19:21 |
| 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. | 19:21 |

| justdave | most other vnc clients I've seen on other platforms do a pan-n-scan thing so when you drag the mouse off the edge of the screen it scrolls that direction | 19:26 |

| onetinsoldier | dominicdinada: perhaps i should set up an ftp server.. but i know that would take me a while tho. i can just give you the full link here in a minute | 19:26 |

My Ubuntu 9.10 failed to boot. So I installed 10.04. It sometimes connect but the connection is barely usable. I just want to know is there any lucky guy withthe card working? The Ubuntu wiki says that the card works out of box but it didn't work in.out. over or below my box. Help!! | 19:27 |

| SealedWithAKiss | ActionParsnip, it's a desktop. | 19:33 |

| ubottu | To find out what version of Ubuntu you have, type « lsb_release -a » in a !shell - To know the available version of a package, « apt-cache policy <package> » | 19:34 |
| xorwhy | I cant remember if it is i386 or amd64 | 19:34 |

| isaac_ | KaOSoFt, recent schmecent. XChat for the win. | 19:35 |
| DCGstudios | Ka0SFt, they are the same, XchatGNOME is a lighter weight version created specificlly for the gnome DE | 19:36 |
| sebsebseb | DCGstudios: Distro's aren't that relivant, what matters though, is that someone has a good distro for what they want to do, and no that's not always Ubuntu, if you like it or not. | 19:36 |

| DCGstudios | sebsebseb, if you give a user whos been using linux for under a year and strictly ubuntu (using lolapt-get), and send them off to gentoo, theyll have 0% success. distros DO matter. | 19:36 |
| BluesKaj | why ask here, isaac_ ? | 19:37 |
| isaac_ | ActionParsnip, assuming that of course, yes. | 19:37 |
| KaOSoFt | I guess I'll just stick to XChat. Can't seem to switch to Tab view in GNOME version. | 19:37 |
| sebsebseb | DCGstudios: I care about Desktop Linux gaining a nice market share against Windows, I don't care that much about a particular distro doing it anymore, and this is a good place to end the off topic. Or pm me if you really want to continue it. | 19:37 |

| isaac_ | BluesKaj, because I'm running Ubuntu latest and I thought someone here might know. | 19:37 |
| trumee | i downloaded the http://www.mythbuntu.org/files/mythbuntu-repos.deb file and installed using dpkg -i | 19:38 |
| isaac_ | And because I've had no luck so far with google | 19:38 |
| ActionParsnip | Trumee: I suggest finding a ppa instead. You can use apt-get et al then | 19:38 |
| BluesKaj | isaac_, you could try ultimate bootdisc ..it's open source , and can restore the mbr on windows pcs | 19:38 |
| gridbag | ActionParsnip, This only works if I put in a 'sleep 60' before calling "amixer sset 'Analog Source' Mic" in the rc.local. the pulseaudio startup is mucking everything up i think. | 19:38 |
| ActionParsnip | Isaac_: try a different search engine then | 19:39 |
| c5k6 | disconnect | 19:39 |
| trumee | ActionParsnip: there was something like ppa when i did that but i said no to it. | 19:39 |

| Penguin_Guy | Has anyone here got any experience running Apache on Linux? | 19:43 |
| trumee | DCGstudios: dont know what to do next. | 19:43 |
| BluesKaj | isaac_, why run it in ubuntu ...don't think it will find anything in windows | 19:43 |
| ActionParsnip | Isaac_: the ultimate boot cd may have antispyware | 19:44 |
| DCGstudios | sebsebseb, ill be sure to throw it in a VM but last time i used mandriva was 4 years ago when RPMs were the easiest install method lol | 19:44 |
| === AI_theos is now known as theos | ||
| sebsebseb | DCGstudios: also yes you don't start people on Gentoo or distro's like that. | 19:44 |
| ActionParsnip | Dcgstudios: rpm is as easy as deb. Just a different package standard | 19:44 |
| ionut | how can i change the keyboard language in ubuntu 10.04 LTS ? | 19:44 |
| ionut | how can i change the keyboard language in ubuntu 10.04 LTS ? | 19:44 |
| cTn | anyone with some skills in drm-next that could give me a hand ? | 19:44 |
| ActionParsnip | Ionut: under preferences | 19:45 |
| lucid_lynx | why doesn't Wireshark (a network analysis tool) recognize my network card? | 19:45 |
| jimcooncat | Penguin_Guy: I'd guess a bunch of us do, but to discuss it here it should be Apache on Debian (it's not just any Linux distro.) | 19:45 |
| ActionParsnip | Ionut: in system menu | 19:45 |
| * isaac_ tips his hat and goes off to look up some stuff. | 19:45 | |
| isaac_ | Cheers! | 19:45 |
| DCGstudios | actionparsnip, you obviosuly didnt use it back then when 90% of program dependencys had to be installed and compiled manually. | 19:45 |
| h00k | isaac_: good luck! | 19:45 |
| ActionParsnip | Lucid_lynx: the driver may need tweaking | 19:45 |
| ionut | ActionParsnip: i can-t find it | 19:45 |
| BluesKaj | isaac_, I suggest you ask ppl in ##windows what should be done, short of reinstalling windows with proper security on the infected machines | 19:45 |
| jimcooncat | Penguin_Guy: oops -- wrong channel! I meant Apache on Ubuntu! | 19:45 |
| factotum | cTn: no, there isn't. | 19:45 |
| ActionParsnip | Dcgstudios 1999 / 2000 ? | 19:45 |
| Nubulis_Maximus | I was wondering if anyone here has any experience editing widgets for superkaramba? | 19:46 |
| ActionParsnip | Dcgstudios: its still not bad | 19:46 |
| trumee | DCGstudios: i did a reload in synaptic and now i see 0.23 version. cool! | 19:46 |
| ActionParsnip | Ionut: on the gnome panel : system -> prefs -> keyboard | 19:46 |
| dominicdinada | badnaam any luck ? | 19:46 |
| Nubulis_Maximus | If so, i could use some pointers. | 19:46 |
| DCGstudios | trumee, i think .23 is pre-upgraded isnt it? i thought you said .27 was the upgrade | 19:46 |
| Penguin_Guy | jimcooncat: You mean there's an apache support channel? The '#apache' channel says that it's not for support questions. | 19:46 |
| ionut | ActionParsnip: founded, tnx | 19:46 |
| trumee | DCGstudios: i want to install 0.23 version | 19:47 |
| llutz | Penguin_Guy: try at #httpd | 19:47 |
| ActionParsnip | ionut: next time, don't flood | 19:47 |
| DCGstudios | trumee, lol well yea i looked in synaptic and it was there in the first place =P sorry must have mis-read your post | 19:47 |
| Penguin_Guy | llutz: Thanks, I'll ask there. | 19:47 |
| theos | hey i installed cube 2 game but when i open it and try to run it, it closes everytime. i have ATI radeon card which the game uses fairly well. what can be the problem? | 19:48 |
| lucid_lynx | ActionParsnip: in what way do you mean? | 19:48 |
| DCGstudios | ActionParsnip, its not bad, to a familar user. but before ubuntu was around mandriva was the most user-riendly system, and really the only distro supporting automatic package compiling / configuring | 19:48 |
| ActionParsnip | Lucid_lynx: you may need to patch the driver to make it act right | 19:48 |
| Nubulis_Maximus | I remember using mandrake 7.2 | 19:48 |
| DCGstudios | ActionParsnip, to someone that learned linux on gentoo back then, though, everything then and now should be a snap. | 19:48 |
| GeekSquid | theos: sauerbraten is the name of the game in ubuntu, and seems to have more updated code... you might try that | 19:48 |
| ActionParsnip | Dcgstudios: depends on the user as for "easy" | 19:49 |
| zigwoggler | hey, i accidently removed the little wifi icon from the top panel and i cant seem to find it on the list to re-add it, help? | 19:49 |
| ActionParsnip | Dcgstudios: gentoo was my 2nd distro after redhat | 19:49 |
| theos | GeekSquid, yes thats the name. i installed it today so it should have the latest code i think? | 19:49 |
| lucid_lynx | ActionParsnip: I'm not totally sure, but could the problem be that I maybe have to run it as root (that's what a website I found said)? | 19:49 |
| DCGstudios | ActionParsnip, most people set the benchmark to "easy" or "user-friendly" as a windows installation | 19:49 |
| Draggin | Good evening... I've had a bit of a strange event... I've upgraded to US 10.04 from 9.10 and it went pretty smoothly, except, after I rebooted, I was greeted by the most ghastly splash screen/boot screen. It's essentially an ASCII version of the standard Ubuntu 10.04 splash screen and I'd very much like to get rid of it. Excpet, when I try to install USplash in Synaptic, it tells me that it would basically need to uninstall every single o | 19:49 |
| zigwoggler | -!help | 19:49 |
| GeekSquid | theos: yeah, I have an ati and it is really sluggish, but does work, although I haven't tried in lucid yet, so IDK | 19:50 |
| onetinsoldier | Draggin: http://news.softpedia.com/news/How-to-Fix-the-Big-and-Ugly-Plymouth-Logo-in-Ubuntu-10-04-140810.shtml | 19:50 |
| h00k | zigwoggler: alt+f2, then run 'nm-applet' | 19:50 |
| ActionParsnip | Dcgstudios: the gentoo handbook is easy enough. I don't compare any of linux to windows. I recognise it is different | 19:50 |
| xorwhy | How do I disable those tooltips that pop up in the upper left hand corner? I think it is libgnotify, but I don't want to remove it if there will be problems later | 19:50 |
| TuGa | hi | 19:50 |
| theos | GeekSquid, i am running karmic. i have sound problems too with this card on ubuntu :/ | 19:51 |
| ActionParsnip | Xorwhy: yes libnotify provides that. Remove away | 19:51 |
| karl_kk | hi, i have a problem with ubuntu netbook edition, my windows keep vanishing, i.e. if i open firefox it loads ok, than after a second is minimized/vanishes | 19:51 |
| TuGa | i'm trying to install ubuntu 10 on my hard disk SAS. ii started the livecd i can see the SAS disk create a partition for / and finish the instalation process | 19:51 |
| h00k | theos: you can find your release with 'lsb_release -a' | 19:51 |
| dominicdinada | !guarddog | 19:51 |
| 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. | 19:51 |
| DCGstudios | ActionParsnip, most definitly, gentoo installations and debugging would be my recommendation to get familiar with the linux architecture.. but the thing is even now 85% of your time in gentoo will be debugging or configuring lol | 19:51 |
| zigwoggler | hook: tried that and nothing happened | 19:51 |
| TuGa | but wend reboot it gives me the windows bootloader and not grub to go to ubuntu | 19:52 |
| TuGa | any ideia? | 19:52 |
| h00k | zigwoggler: The applet is called nm-applet, you can try running it in a terminal and seeing what happens | 19:52 |
| karl_kk | i cant get any window to show, they just vanish | 19:52 |
| h00k | zigwoggler: also, try: nm-applet --sm-disable | 19:52 |
| theos | h00k, thanks its karmic | 19:52 |
| Draggin | onetinsoldier - thanks! That looks exactly like what I need | 19:53 |
| ActionParsnip | Dcgstudios: depends on how complex the system is. My retired gentoo box had kernel, boot loader and samba on. Not much to debug there. You are assuming all gentoo users want a desktop system and that gets you stuck | 19:53 |
| h00k | zigwoggler: if it's set to start up when you log in, you can just log out and then back in | 19:53 |
| Corin` | wondering if anyone could tell me if I can do "aptitude install mysql-server" without the blue dpkg screen asking me for the password (I want to do it from a bash file without any user input) | 19:53 |
| onetinsoldier | Draggin: you're welcome :-) i sue the ati fglrx driver and i used option #1 on there. worked a treat for me :-) | 19:53 |
| zigwoggler | hook: ill try that thanks | 19:53 |
| karl_kk | this is on a just upgraded lucid | 19:53 |
| onetinsoldier | Draggin: use* | 19:53 |
| 45PAAJF4U | Hi everyone!! I am new to this chat, I have a problem with songbird not playing m4a format ever since I upgraded to 10.04 Gstream is installed correctly with ugly,bad and good any ideas anyone??? thanks | 19:53 |
| ActionParsnip | 45paajf4u: is there a bug for it | 19:54 |
| h00k | !m4a | 45PAAJF4U | 19:54 |

| morbo1993 | So i | 19:54 |
| zigwoggler | hook: its not the panel, its the little wifi icon i want to get back. i tried logging in and out and what you said before and neither has worked | 19:54 |
| dominicdinada | onetinsoldier: that theme looks ok but it appears to use the dolphin explorer which uses way to much processing power and ram to run. | 19:55 |
| onetinsoldier | songbird dropped their support for linux btw | 19:55 |
| max101 | zigwoggler : try re-install desktop! | 19:55 |
| DCGstudios | zigwoggler, right click the notifications panel, remove it, right click the panel, and re-add it. | 19:55 |
| zigwoggler | hook: i accidently removed it and i cant find it on the list to re-add it | 19:55 |
| === dmurphy is now known as Talirk81 | ||
| 45PAAJF4U | ActionParnsnip>>> Thank you I will check-it out, although I did installed all Medibuntu codecs | 19:55 |
| morbo1993 | So i'm running LXDE, and my LXPanel doesn't show Terminal (and probably some other apps that i'm not missing atm) anyone know something about that? | 19:55 |
| DCGstudios | zigwoggler, its called "notification panel" | 19:55 |
| ActionParsnip | Zigwoggler: the o's in h00k are zeros not o's | 19:56 |
| ionut | i don't want to see icnos of mounted partition on desktop (when i enter a volume , a disk icon appear on desktop) how can i disable that option? | 19:56 |
| zigwoggler | oooh | 19:56 |
| DCGstudios | zigwoggler, sorry its "notification area" | 19:56 |
| zigwoggler | DCGstudios, thabks for your help mate, found it | 19:56 |
| onetinsoldier | dominicdinada: it's essentially just a gtk2+ theme. it's not resource hungry | 19:56 |
| === Jontafk is now known as Jonta | ||
| DCGstudios | zigwoggler, no problem. good luck. | 19:56 |
| h00k | zigwoggler: you can re-add it by adding: 'nm-applet --sm-disable' to the list in your startup information, it shows up in the Notification Area | 19:57 |
| onetinsoldier | dominicdinada: what's your hardware? | 19:57 |
| dominicdinada | onetinsoldier: maybe i will give it a try this laptop has very limited resources :/ | 19:57 |
| abubakar | hi | 19:57 |
| ActionParsnip | Ionut: its an option in gconf some place. I don't have a lin box so can't search with you | 19:57 |
| dominicdinada | onetinsoldier: 10gig hd, 2.8ghz, 1gigram | 19:57 |
| abubakar | i have probm with my mic | 19:57 |
| onetinsoldier | dominicdinada: roger. yeah.. a laptop. might want to avoid it then | 19:57 |
| DCGstudios | ionut, you could mount it to a specific folder.. im not sure but i think that would take it off the desktop. | 19:57 |
| dominicdinada | onetinsoldier: this laptop was free the hd it came with was corrupted and the person got a macbook so it was free and i had a spare 10gig :P | 19:58 |
| Frank | How do I do that a file can execute shell-permissions? I am new to ubuntu. Thanks. | 19:58 |
| DCGstudios | ionut, for example.. 'mkdir /mounthere' 'mount -t ext3 /dev/sda1 /mounthere' of couse you have to replace the harddrive location and filesystem type | 19:58 |
| onetinsoldier | dominicdinada: you can try it.. it's not really very heavy. if you find it to heavy you can always get rid of it. just depends on how much you like the look in the preview ;) | 19:58 |
| dominicdinada | Frank: alt +f2 - gksudo (file) | 19:58 |
| arcsky | hello does anyone know if there are any dj programs for linux? | 19:59 |
| onetinsoldier | dominicdinada: roger... 10gig hd is pretty small these days | 19:59 |
| rom1v | hi | 19:59 |
| erUSUL | !info mixxx | arcsky | 19:59 |
| pete1 | hello, what is the working directory where /etc/fstab is read on bootup? | 19:59 |
| ubottu | arcsky: mixxx (source: mixxx): Digital Disc Jockey Interface. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.7.2-1 (lucid), package size 1719 kB, installed size 3352 kB | 19:59 |
| dominicdinada | Frank: if you are trying to edit a file open your shell... type sudo gedit "path/filename.ext" | 19:59 |
| erUSUL | pete1: huh? | 19:59 |
| DCGstudios | pete1, what do you mean? | 20:00 |
| pete1 | my ntfs partition doesn't get its options set unless I mount it on a relative path | 20:00 |
| dominicdinada | onetinsoldier: Ya lol it works only it is just a laptop that i run and wipe every month or so :) | 20:00 |
| DCGstudios | pete1, pastebin your fstab please | 20:00 |
| victoria | when using linux, is a user safe regarding email worms? | 20:01 |
| erUSUL | pete1: is listed in fstab ? if so can you show us the line you use to mount it ? | 20:01 |
| onetinsoldier | dominicdinada: roger. well, i think it has the horsepower to run that theme ok if you want to give it a try, but i might effect battery life a little... maybe | 20:01 |
| erUSUL | victoria: safer then in windows for sure. most worms target windows | 20:01 |
| pete1 | UUID=665414135413E499 /home/pete/mestuff ntfs defaults,nls=utf8,fmask=117,dmask=007,uid=1000,gid=1000 0 0 | 20:02 |
| DCGstudios | victoria, generally "worms" are considered to be malware which automaticlly spreads via network connections, linux is safe against most malware becuase windows holds 97% of the marketshare | 20:02 |
| pete1 | mount -a gives "using default mumbo jumbo" | 20:02 |
| onetinsoldier | dominicdinada: how come you wipe it about every month? | 20:02 |
| dominicdinada | onetinsoldier: i will give it a try but i am still trying to figure out why lucid is so resource hungry my fan and cpu is always working | 20:02 |
| kaegee | Hi, here's hoping that someone can help me (complete noob) temporarily bypass the auto loading of XBMC to access my ubuntu system (mythbuntu). thanks | 20:02 |
| onetinsoldier | dominicdinada: oh, i see. don't know why. have you installed the cpufreq stuff? | 20:03 |
| dominicdinada | onetinsoldier: because It is just easier... I got 4 other pc's and this is a tinker pc :) | 20:03 |
| guntbert | !gksudo | dominicdinada, Frank | 20:03 |
| ubottu | dominicdinada, Frank: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) | 20:03 |
| pete1 | so for now I'm mounting it manually with relative path, Lucid Lynx | 20:03 |
| faryshta | Is there anyway to turn pdf files into doc (Word) files? | 20:03 |
| erUSUL | pete1: some of the options do not apply to ntfs | 20:03 |
| onetinsoldier | dominicdinada: ahh, i see | 20:03 |
| DCGstudios | pete1, so you want it to automaticlly mount on startup correct? | 20:03 |
| erUSUL | pete1: fmask and dmask to be precise | 20:03 |
| pete1 | yep | 20:03 |
| Frank | Thanks! | 20:03 |
| dominicdinada | guntbert: ummm i didnt need help and frank obviously has his issue solved seeing that was 10 mins ago | 20:03 |
| pete1 | no, they work | 20:03 |
| victoria | ok, that's what I thought. Thanks guys | 20:04 |
| bcj1 | Has anyone else noticed that mouse clicks are quite often ignored on Ubuntu 10.04 Adobe Flash plugin for Firefox? | 20:04 |
| DCGstudios | pete1, are you trying to set this partition as your home? or just extra storage? | 20:04 |
| dominicdinada | onetinsoldier: i have the system moniter on my panel and my fan never shuts down with lucis | 20:04 |
| dominicdinada | lucid* | 20:04 |
| guntbert | dominicdinada: but you suggested "sudo gedit....." which you shouldn't | 20:04 |
| erUSUL | pete1: you are mixing ntfs options with ntfs-3g options; you probably want ntfs-3g anyway (to be able to writte to the partition) | 20:04 |
| dominicdinada | guntbert: ummm why not? | 20:04 |
| faryshta | Is there anyway to turn pdf files into doc (Word) files? | 20:04 |
| erUSUL | bcj1: known bug... chack launchpad | 20:05 |
| guntbert | dominicdinada: did you *read* what I sent you? | 20:05 |
| erUSUL | faryshta: pdf2text ? | 20:05 |
| onetinsoldier | dominicdinada: roger. i've never tried it out or anything, but there is a 'fancontrol' package | 20:05 |
| bcj1 | erUSUL: Have you got an ID? | 20:05 |
| faryshta | erUSUL, will try, thanks. | 20:05 |
| mdel | what are .save files? | 20:05 |
| mdel | i have a sources.list.save | 20:05 |

| omkar | hey guys I have ubuntu 10.04 on cd | 20:05 |
| DCGstudios | mdel, http://filext.com/ | 20:06 |
| omkar | but when i try to install it on my laptop it gives some warning | 20:06 |
| erUSUL | bcj1: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/flashplugin-nonfree/+bug/410407 | 20:06 |
| acicula | faryshta, there is pdftoabw (abiword?) you can perhaps export that as .doc | 20:06 |
| mdel | DCGstudios: joking? | 20:06 |
| bcj1 | erUSUL: Thanks | 20:06 |
| omkar | n on the GUI it just shows the ubuntu logo with the dots which are blinking | 20:06 |
| acicula | mdel, old backups probably | 20:06 |
| Frank | Someone who can recommend a physical book on Linux / Ubuntu (English)? | 20:06 |
| faryshta | acicula that sound better. | 20:06 |
| omkar | how do i fix it | 20:06 |
| mdel | acicula: thanks :) | 20:06 |
| kaegee | @faryshta: apparently there is an app (I guess Windows-based) that can convert pdf to Word. A friend of mine was bragging about it but said it wasn't free. Google? | 20:07 |
| dominicdinada | guntbert: did you read what you sent me... " Why is it an issue? Well, to be perfectly honest, most of the time it isn't" GTFOH | 20:07 |
| Black_Phantom | Frank, I would recommend The Linux Bible, for linux in general. | 20:07 |
| Black_Phantom | Latest edition | 20:07 |
| acicula | linux bible is just an aggregation of howtos still right? | 20:07 |
| DCGstudios | mdel, no. http://www.file-extensions.org/search/?searchstring=.save | 20:07 |
| faryshta | kaegee, I tried Google Docs, they didn't work. | 20:07 |
| guntbert | !md5sum | omkar did you check? | 20:07 |
| ubottu | omkar did you check?: To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows | 20:07 |

| omkar | I will check it but most probably it looks like some kind of incompatibility with the hardware | 20:08 |
| ManDay | Can anyone help with cracks in mp3 files? The files play without cracks in, say foobar on windows, but have cracks on Linux in audacious. Yes - I used a normalizer on the files and they are indeed clipped - but iof you claim that is that which creates the cracks - why does it only happen in Linux and how to fix it? | 20:08 |
| Frank | Learn Ubuntu / Linux, thinking, structure. | 20:08 |
| dominicdinada | onetinsoldier: with that fan package controller what is the name of it... and well I dont want to cause the system harm but lucid running my fan all the time will wear on the fan | 20:08 |
| onetinsoldier | dominicdinada: roger. there is a 'fancontrol' package | 20:09 |
| dominicdinada | h00k: I was being appropriate :/ | 20:09 |
| onetinsoldier | !fancontrol | 20:09 |
| DCGstudios | pete1, a little confused.. you need 1 directory for your /home. either that partition is set specificly for that, or its there for storage or for another OS installation.. | 20:09 |
| dominicdinada | onetinsoldier: aptitude ? or synaptic | 20:09 |
| onetinsoldier | !info fancontrol | 20:09 |
| omkar | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Bugs/Lucidi8xxFreezes | 20:09 |
| ubottu | fancontrol (source: lm-sensors-3): utilities to read temperature/voltage/fan sensors. In component main, is extra. Version 1:3.1.2-2 (lucid), package size 40 kB, installed size 140 kB | 20:09 |
| omkar | looks like this might be the cause | 20:09 |
| dominicdinada | blah | 20:09 |
| onetinsoldier | dominicdinada: either one will work | 20:09 |
| omkar | am i right | 20:09 |
| DCGstudios | mdel, theres about 100 different applications that save files as .save, your best off googling it or looking at which directory its located in to determine which appliaction created it. | 20:10 |
| perlsyntax | I mde my first deb file and i want to make sure it is stable.ow can i do that? | 20:10 |
| pete1 | erUSUL: I can write on it anyway, "man mount" tells me nothing of ntfs-3g | 20:10 |
| pete1 | DCGstudios: I just mount the partition in a subdirectory of my home, that's all | 20:10 |
| guntbert | omkar: first check your iso to exclude a bad image as cause | 20:10 |
| perlsyntax | how | 20:10 |

| DCGstudios | pete1, if you could just pastebin your entire fstab file and fdisk -l it would make troubleshooting much easier as theres many complications it could it running into | 20:11 |
| Black_Phantom | Ubuntu can run on Intel core i7 ofcourse, right ? | 20:12 |
| onetinsoldier | dominicdinada: roger. like i said.. i haven't tried it or anything. it's installed here too on my desktop system though | 20:12 |
| erUSUL | pete1: let me guess.... given the bogus fstab line the partition does not get mounted on boot. when you access it via the desktop envoirment it get automatically mounted with the automount feature and with the defaults options; hence your calim of your options being ignored. | 20:12 |
| DCGstudios | Black_Phantom, i dont see why not | 20:12 |
| Black_Phantom | I heard this thing that i7 doesnt accept OSs but Win7 | 20:12 |
| erUSUL | pete1: check « cat /proc/mounts » to see what is really going on | 20:12 |
| thul | ubuntu update killed my machine :-( | 20:12 |
| Black_Phantom | i5 & i7 | 20:12 |
| onetinsoldier | dominicdinada: have you used the 'cpufreq' stuff? | 20:12 |
| Jordan_U | ManDay: Is it only certain files / players or do all sounds have "cracks"? | 20:12 |
| dominicdinada | onetinsoldier: ill take a look | 20:13 |
| erUSUL | pete1: btw "man ntfs-3g" | 20:13 |
| perlsyntax | hello does anyone know how to make sure te deb file is stable??? | 20:13 |
| onetinsoldier | dominicdinada: roger... just try out --> apt-cache search cpufreq | sort | 20:13 |
| BluesKaj | Black_Phantom, don't beleive everything you hear | 20:13 |
| ManDay | Jordan_U, certain files only - want an example? | 20:13 |
| Black_Phantom | BluesKaj, true that :) | 20:13 |
| Black_Phantom | thanks | 20:13 |
| dominicdinada | ok i did synaptic cpufreq and came up with 3 hits | 20:13 |
| Jordan_U | ManDay: Sure | 20:14 |
| perlsyntax | onetinsolder,do you know how to make sure the deb file is stable?? | 20:14 |
| dominicdinada | onetinsoldier: cpufreqd ? | 20:14 |
| ManDay | Jordan_U, ? | 20:14 |
| mmica | hi all! ;] | 20:14 |
| onetinsoldier | dominicdinada: that's one of them... yes. that's the daemon | 20:15 |
| faryshta | perlsyntax, what do you mean with stable? | 20:15 |
| DCGstudios | perlsyntax, stable as in not corrupted? | 20:15 |
| onetinsoldier | dominicdinada: you'll also want cpufrequtils | 20:15 |
| perlsyntax | with no error | 20:15 |
| dominicdinada | onetinsoldier: ok gonna look later | 20:15 |
| onetinsoldier | dominicdinada: roger | 20:16 |
| perlsyntax | i thought it ws easy maybeing deb files. | 20:16 |
| omkar | ok i will check | 20:16 |
| faryshta | perlsyntax, The only way you do with any other executable file I guess. Execute it and debug. | 20:16 |

| pete1 | but with default settings, ie root as owner; to evade this, I have to give the mount point by relative path | 20:18 |
| pete1 | manually | 20:19 |

| jcrawford | hey guys i have a thumb drive that is used for my Ubuntu OS. I boot to it and it works great. My only question is this. I have it setup so there are 2 partitions /boot and /. the / partition is encrypted. I would like to use DD to create an ISO image of this drive (with encryption if possible) so that if the drive fails all i have to do is get a new thumb drive, put the ISO in place and have it all working again. Is this possible? | 20:22 |
| Matr|x | BUT THIS ERROR WITH PYTHON | 20:22 |

| duffydack | keenken, I use compiz for all my window stuff.. what about having it open on a different desktop ? | 20:22 |
| DCGstudios | pete1, http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/FkLhQ7Mu | 20:23 |
| jamil_1 | HI, I am noticing very odd thing that when I highlight a row in the Openoffice, compiz gets disabled and all window borders are removed | 20:23 |
| lolufail | woah this room is crazy, no wonder everyone goes to #debian :D | 20:23 |
| DCGstudios | pete1, i commented out the line your currently using and added another | 20:23 |

| DCGstudios | pete1, actually wait sorry | 20:24 |
| milaz | did anyone experienced such thing as overly long diskchecks with 10.04? | 20:24 |
| BluesKaj | lolufail, then go there :) | 20:24 |
| DCGstudios | pete1, http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/SqvsXQAG | 20:24 |

| duffydack | keenken, ah. Maybe there is a command to send to a 'free' space... I dont know tho.. If you have that many spaces and have that many apps running then personaally I`d pick a space and have the app open on that space all the time.. | 20:25 |
| milaz | it prints that disk check can be cancelled with C, but it does not stop then | 20:25 |
| uRock | I think there is something wrong with my ubuntu | 20:25 |
| BluesKaj | milaz, depends on your data amount | 20:25 |
| faryshta | Have someone installed 10.04 64bits in a dual core amd athlon? | 20:25 |
| sgfgdf | hello, is it possible to connect through vnc on my ubuntu without needing to click allow, because there is nobody on the computer. usually i should allow if someone is connecting, so probably this is an option that i've selected. any way to disable it? | 20:25 |
| soreau | jamil_1: can you install compiz-fusion-plugins-extra and compiz-gdb packages then enable crash handler in ccsm, make it crash then get the crash log from /tmp and port it to a pastebin service so I can look at it? | 20:25 |
| duffydack | keenken, it will usually flash in the panel if its opening on another space, so you can click it and be directed to it, like I have for xchat and other stuff. | 20:25 |
| duffydack | keenken, other than that, I got nothing. | 20:26 |
| milaz | BluesKaj: if I have 500Gb of data, is it okay for them to be checked for 15 minutes? | 20:26 |
| uRock | it hasn't crashed since I installed Lucid | 20:26 |
| jamil_1 | soreau: sure | 20:26 |
| guja | I have problem with my home folder. Everything I put in there is copied to Desktop. How to solve this? Thank you. | 20:26 |
| BluesKaj | milaz, yes, that a lot , 15mins seem reasonable | 20:26 |
| rabidweezle | what's the fastest way to upgrade from the last LTS to the current | 20:26 |
| onetinsoldier | rabidweezle: sudo do-release-upgrade | 20:27 |
| uRock | rabidweezle, clean install | 20:27 |
| uRock | much faster | 20:27 |
| milaz | BluesKaj: and if it were 100Gb :) | 20:27 |
| onetinsoldier | rabidweezle: what uRock said is better imo ;) | 20:27 |
| rabidweezle | clean install isn't an option | 20:27 |
| keenken | uRock, i was going to say that, but he asked for an "upgrade"... | 20:27 |
| jamil_1 | soreau: compiz-gdb ? | 20:27 |
| BluesKaj | dunno, milaz mine takrs about 5 mins with 45G | 20:27 |

| xorwhy | I've never made a package before, but I think it'd be useful to me and others if I simplified the process of compiling and installing all these little programs. | 20:40 |
| DCGstudios | AnxiousNut, glad i could help. | 20:40 |
| BluesKaj | ManDay, do you have pulseaudio ionstalled , if so you have alayer of unnecessary audio processing which could be the problem of clipping and distorted sound. | 20:40 |
| abstrakt | onetinsoldier, ok cool | 20:40 |
| jamil_1 | soreau: yeah now it is not crashing :) But what is the relation of compiz with highlighting in office | 20:40 |
| mikel | ManDay: do the cracks and noise appear at the same moments in the same files in a predictable way? or do you get different crackle-patterns when playing the same bit of audio? | 20:41 |
| guntbert | abstrakt: in this case "64" is the important part , "amd" is there for historical reasons | 20:41 |

| dotnetted03 | hey all - after upgrading to ubuntu 10 from 9.1 my wireless network interface (ra0) has dissapeared from the ifconfig output but is still in /etc/network/interfaces - what may have happened during the upgrade? | 20:41 |
| RainyLithuanian | I am using ubuntu 9.10 & Asus Eee, I was able to connect via lan cable to my dorm network, but at some point it just stopped working, how can I diagnose this thing? | 20:41 |
| onetinsoldier | xorwhy: i use the 'checkinstall' package | 20:42 |
| ripdisk | ¨hardware texture compression support not found¨ | 20:42 |
| duffydack | milaz, it says as of 12th may status: Fix Released → Fix Committed but I aint seen it. | 20:42 |
| onetinsoldier | !info checkinstall | xorwhy | 20:42 |
| ubottu | xorwhy: checkinstall (source: checkinstall): installation tracker. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.6.1-10 (lucid), package size 121 kB, installed size 560 kB | 20:42 |
| soreau | jamil_1: I would really like to know too but I have heard of someone reporting this same problem. Can you please file a bug report, including that crash report that says 'compiz crashes with animations enabled when I xyz'? | 20:42 |
| ManDay | BlueEagle, erm, well pulse ships with ubuntu - id gladly remove it if I knew that it wouldnt break anything! Can I? mikel they are regular - the for instance occur at bass peaks | 20:42 |
| abstrakt | guntbert, ok good to know thx | 20:42 |
| guntbert | abstrakt: :) | 20:42 |
| ManDay | of course, the solution id prefer is fixing the cracks by fixing the files | 20:42 |
| abstrakt | so the update manager is telling me that 10.04 is available | 20:42 |
| milaz | duffydack: it looks the fix is in -proposed queue. Did you enable -proposed in your update manager? | 20:42 |
| abstrakt | how "safe" is it to click that update button if i'm on 9.10? | 20:43 |
| mikel | ManDay: Yeah, that'd be digital clipping. If the files play elsewhere with no problems, then the files are fine | 20:43 |
| abstrakt | i'm a little superstitious of doing anything other than a clean install | 20:43 |
| guja | I have problem with my home folder. Everything I put in there is copied to Desktop. How to solve this? Thank you. | 20:43 |
| BluesKaj | ManDay, you can safely remove PA, if you need it you can always reinstall | 20:43 |
| jamil_1 | soreau: sure | 20:43 |
| ManDay | mikel, so why does linux clip the files wrongly but windows doesnt? | 20:43 |
| dotnetted03 | abstrakt: well I just did it and lost my video driver, broke grub, and cant get networking working again... ;) | 20:43 |
| duffydack | milaz, ah well.. I`ll wait till its proper. | 20:43 |
| ManDay | mind me asking why pulse is installed in the first place? | 20:43 |
| soreau | jamil_1: They should be able to use that crash log to fix it in compiz | 20:43 |
| ManDay | just to serve as a server in cases? | 20:43 |
| guntbert | abstrakt: my advice: download a live CD, put it onto an usb thumb drive, boot it and chaeck for yourself | 20:43 |
| abstrakt | dotnetted03, hahah, ok good to know also :) | 20:43 |

| kaegee | hi, I have set Mythbuntu to not auto load MythTV but to auto load XBMC. I set this in the "control panel" (can't remember the Linux name for control panel). Anyway, now when I log in it goes into XBMC and when I exit XBMC it goes back to the login screen. I can't access Ubuntu itself (even under other usernames including root). I'm a complete noob but hope it's simple solution (e.g. hold down "shift" or something when logging in. | 20:44 |
| erUSUL | guja: do this in a terminal --> grep -i desktop ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs | 20:44 |

| erUSUL | carael: what is asdm ? | 20:44 |
| mikel | ManDay: you might want to try playing with the levels in alsamixer. If the pre-mixer volume is set too high then the waveform could be getting clipped before it's even sent to the soundcard | 20:44 |

| jonaz_ | Anyone have a recommendation on a good IRC client on gnome? I was thinking of Xchat and was wondering if anyone is using that, or anything else they would recommend. | 20:46 |

| erUSUL | jonaz_: xchat will fit the bill | 20:46 |
| mikel | jonaz_: i'm running xchat right now. It's always been good and simple and robust | 20:46 |
| abstrakt | onetinsoldier, yeah i'm a little superstitious of going with 64 bit because of drivers+flash | 20:46 |
| BluesKaj | ManDay, pulseaudio is installed because someone in dev has an agenda they want to prove ....it might work fine with ssytems that have more head room , but onboard cards suffer for it with pulseaudio | 20:46 |

| arand | irc | jonaz_ | 20:46 |
| DCGstudios | jonaz_, xchat is genreally the accepted irc client for most gnome users.. theres 2 versions, regular xchat and xchat-gnome, xchat-gnome is simply a lighterweight version. | 20:46 |
| milaz | i'll report in comments for this bug | 20:47 |
| onetinsoldier | abstrakt: since your current install is 32-bit, you have to do a clean install if you want 64-bit | 20:47 |
| abstrakt | but i'd like to go with 64 cuz i do multi-track recording and i think it would probably benefit my studio setup greatly to have 64 bit | 20:47 |
| milaz | as far as i can tell from debdiff, it's about properly watching for the progress of the child process | 20:47 |
| abstrakt | onetinsoldier, there's no 64 bit flash still is there? | 20:47 |
| milaz | i hope it won't destroy my ard drive :) | 20:47 |
| abstrakt | onetinsoldier, and what about 64 bit nvidia drivers? | 20:47 |
| erUSUL | sagar: go to /etc/init/ . rename the tty<number>.conf you do not need. (i.e to tty<number>.conf.disabled ) | 20:47 |
| onetinsoldier | abstrakt: yes, there is 64-bit Adobe Flash | 20:47 |
| abstrakt | for nix? | 20:47 |
| abstrakt | onetinsoldier, there's 64bit flash for *nix? | 20:48 |
| DaZ | only for nix :f | 20:48 |
| onetinsoldier | abstrakt: yes.. 64-bit nvidia drivers, check | 20:48 |
| onetinsoldier | abstrakt: yes, there is 64-bit Adobe Flash | 20:48 |
| abstrakt | hmm, ok | 20:48 |

| duffydack | abstrakt, https://launchpad.net/~sevenmachines/+archive/flash a nice easy ppa for it. | 20:48 |
| jonaz_ | well then, i guess that's settled. xchat it is! DCGstudios: how heavy is the standard version? If I'm on a netbook (MSI wind) would you recommend the lightweight version, or can it handle standard? | 20:48 |

For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+) | 20:49 |

| bear_ | hi | 21:23 |
| [fade] | can you redefine | 21:23 |
| anothernoob1 | anyone got any hints what to do with a ext3 file system that went kaputt with backtrack 4? fsck is telling me that the file system is mounted or opened exclusively by another program. what to do? | 21:23 |
| Roasted | [fade], I dont know how else to say it. | 21:23 |
| Serendippo | deadpigeon, i can't really help, but only say that I had the exact same problem when installing kubuntu 10.04. I started again installing ubuntu 10.04 & didn't have that problem anymore. | 21:23 |
| Roasted | I save a file to my samba server, and it comes down with the group lpadmin. | 21:23 |
| === tootroot is now known as \n\r | ||
| onetinsoldier | Roasted: probably because there's no similar permissions/users file permissions in windows... so samba is doing something like handing you the file with such settings. then you have to manually change them with chown/chmod commands | 21:24 |
| erUSUL | anothernoob1: fsck has to be performed on the umounted partition (with a livecd for example) | 21:24 |
| === \n\r is now known as tootroot | ||
| minimec | bryant: It's annoying. I don't know if it is a driver thing, or something with the kernel implementation. It sucks! But the driver for that siemens stick was always shi*!!! | 21:24 |
| anothernoob1 | erUSUL: I can't mount the partition in the first place. | 21:24 |
| Roasted | onetinsoldier, I shouldn't have to do that. I have a samba server at home that doesn't behave this way. I am saving files to my network share, but my network share has the group set (chmod g+s) as "samba" not lpadmin. | 21:24 |
| [fade] | you mean when you save it the ownership is assigned to lpadadmin? | 21:25 |
| Roasted | [fade], yes. it comes down as user:lpadmin. | 21:25 |
| Roasted | when it should come down as user:samba | 21:25 |
| onetinsoldier | Roasted: oh.. i see. there may be a way to do it then. i didn't know. keep asking. sorry | 21:25 |
| erUSUL | anothernoob1: and still fsck complains it is mounted ? | 21:25 |

| onetinsoldier | chazco: roger. good luck | 21:43 |
| minimec | dotnetted03: Good question ... ;) the gnome-system-mnager should give you the info, as is should list a network-manager process... | 21:43 |
| papna | mezen: I've always done it in LaTeX using the movie15 package. | 21:43 |
| duffydack | milaz, nice | 21:44 |
| minimec | dotnetted03: gnome-system-monitor ... | 21:44 |
| milaz | duffydack: i updated only mountall from -proposed, and disk check took less than a minute, as in previous ubuntu versions | 21:44 |
| mezen | papna, yes let me see | 21:44 |
| sontek | what key do you hit to get rid of the startup screen? | 21:44 |
| venik212 | my gnome panel appears in reverse (the volume and restart icons are on the right!!!) How do I restore it to the way God meant for it to be? | 21:44 |
| sontek | my install freezes when its at the load screen | 21:44 |
| papna | mezen: The swf will play if you are in Windows with acroread and flash installed. | 21:44 |
| [fade] | sontek esc ? | 21:44 |
| sontek | need to see what the error behind it is | 21:44 |
| sontek | esc doesn't work | 21:45 |
| ChogyDan | bryant: also, did you say this worked on a previous version of ubuntu? | 21:45 |
| bryant | ChogyDan: Could you give me the command to type? | 21:45 |
| dotnetted03 | minimec: thanks for the help - network manager isn't currently running though | 21:45 |
| bryant | No. It worked for Windows 7. | 21:45 |
| mezen | papna, it says it require a media player. do you know how to install it ? | 21:45 |
| [fade] | sontek in crontab press e to edit, go to the end of 2nd line, biggest one | 21:45 |
| dotnetted03 | minimec: the weird thing is that it worked before I rebooted | 21:45 |
| minimec | dotnetted03: no problem... | 21:45 |
| [fade] | and there should be like ro splash | 21:45 |
| [fade] | instead of splash put nosplash, it shoudl run without splash screen | 21:45 |
| sontek | [fade]: In crontab? | 21:45 |
| ChogyDan | bryant: sudo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-wireless-lucid-generic | 21:45 |
| papna | mezen: What says that? | 21:45 |
| [fade] | in grub | 21:45 |
| sontek | [fade]: do you mean grub? | 21:45 |
| onetinsoldier | sontek: try and see if you can log into a virtual console. to get to a virtual console... press Ctrl+Alt+F1 | 21:45 |
| guntbert | sontek: at the grub menu you can edit the boot line - add noquiet (and nosplash) | 21:46 |
| markus_ | hy everybody | 21:46 |
| dominicdinada | ok i followed the restricted video formats but totem still is erroring about the codecs... they are installed but totem doesnt find the codes ever what can i do | 21:46 |
| [fade] | yeah, sorry, was working in crontab just now | 21:46 |
| sontek | onetinsoldier: tried, it doesn't get me there | 21:46 |
| [fade] | setting some stuff | 21:46 |
| sontek | guntbert: it doesn't give a grub option | 21:46 |
| onetinsoldier | sontek: roger. don't know. sorry | 21:46 |
| markus_ | in the file selektor box I get all the hidden files displayed. how can I hide them? | 21:46 |
| sontek | it loads right up into the bootloader | 21:46 |
| bryant | ChogyDan: IT's downloading stuff. | 21:46 |
| venik212 | can anyone help me with that screwed up gnome panel (top bar)? | 21:46 |
| papna | mezen: evince and xpdf don't tell me that. | 21:46 |
| Roasted | how can I restart the tftp-hpa service via terminal? | 21:46 |
| sontek | guntbert: its 10.04, it doesn't show grub at all | 21:46 |
| guntbert | sontek: press the right shift key during boot | 21:46 |
| sontek | its not a dual boot | 21:46 |
| duffydack | milaz, seeing all those updates, specially fglrx, I`m tempted to install them all :0 | 21:46 |
| sontek | guntbert: thanks | 21:46 |
| minimec | dotnetted03: Problem could be, that lucid doesn't use the HAL module anymore. There may be some regessions on some hardware... --> maybe file a bug or look for a bug filed by others... | 21:46 |
| Oer | !resetpanels | venik212 | 21:46 |
| ubottu | venik212: To reset the gnome panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » | 21:46 |
| bryant | ChogyDan: OK it finished, what do I do? | 21:47 |
| blue_anna | gnome terminal and bash are not playing well together on my machine -- it is definitely just gnome terminal, as on xterm it works fine | 21:47 |

| bryant | ChogyDan: http://pastebin.com/5H5kEqV7 | 21:48 |
| bryant | Incase you wanted to see what it did. | 21:48 |
| duffydack | milaz, nah, I dont wanna screw around with an LTS.. | 21:48 |
| dotnetted03 | minimec: gotcha - I'll try to figure out how to reinstall the driver first and see what happens | 21:48 |
| duffydack | milaz, I just updated mountall tho. | 21:48 |
| Fopp | Sorry guys, wrong chat box. | 21:48 |
| minimec | dotnetted03: ;) | 21:48 |
| bryant | Anyway, rebooting. Brb | 21:48 |

| mezen | papna, yes i have all what i need | 21:48 |
| milaz | duffydack: right choice :) | 21:48 |
| papna | mezen: This is with acroread on an Ubuntu box? | 21:48 |
| venik212 | thanks, Oer-- it worked | 21:49 |
| Oer | venik212, have fun | 21:49 |
| venik212 | maybe u can tell me how to restore the sound, too? Th | 21:49 |
| duffydack | milaz, if it aint broke dont fix.. so I did | 21:49 |
| dominicdinada | ok i followed the restricted video formats but totem still is erroring about the codecs... they are installed but totem doesnt find the codes ever what can i do | 21:49 |
| minimec | dotnetted03: check dmesg on a console. see if the card or device is loaded correctly. | 21:49 |
| mezen | papna, yes ubuntu 10.04 | 21:49 |
| svu | is there a way to encode mp3 without libfaac? | 21:49 |
| mezen | strange it doesnt work | 21:49 |
| minimec | dotnetted03: iwconfig sohould also give you some infos... | 21:49 |
| mezen | papna, i'll try with evince | 21:50 |
| Oer | restore sound ? | 21:50 |
| aaron | i didn't quit | 21:50 |
| venik212 | my sounds disappeared | 21:50 |
| papna | mezen: This is at least a little promising, though I don't know what it needs. | 21:50 |
| venik212 | it is NOT muted | 21:50 |
| papna | mezen: I don't think poppler implements any multimedia stuff. | 21:50 |
| onetinsoldier | svu: lame perhaps? that what you're looking for? | 21:50 |
| [fade] | maybe your speakers died | 21:50 |
| [fade] | hardward problem on your card | 21:51 |
| mezen | papna, with evince, i cant get the link 'Click to Start' working | 21:51 |
| svu | onetinsoldier, well, I want to encode video for android. libx264 for video, ???? for audio | 21:51 |
| mezen | papna, it appears like there is no link | 21:51 |
| markus_ | Found it thanks :) | 21:51 |
| onetinsoldier | svu: roger. lame is for making .mp3's | 21:51 |
| dotnetted03 | minimex: iwconfig shows the interface but the SSID is not set (it is set in /etc/network/interfaces with wpa-ssid | 21:52 |
| svu | onetinsoldier, I do not need .mp3. I need mp3 stream inside .mp4 video | 21:52 |
| minimec | dotnetted03: is that wpa-supplicant thing installed? | 21:52 |
| onetinsoldier | svu: i see. yeah, i don't know. keep asking | 21:52 |
| minimec | dotnetted03: I guess it is... | 21:52 |
| svu | thanks:) | 21:52 |
| bryant | ChogyDan: Back | 21:53 |
| dotnetted03 | minimec: yep - just checked | 21:53 |

| === sixtila is now known as Guest25252 | ||
| minimec | dotnetted03: so you tried a 'sudo ifup <yourdevice> up' I guess... | 21:53 |
| bryant | ChogyDan: Looks very promising on boot. My wireless signal icon was at 5/5 bars, now it's at 3/5 which is better than before. | 21:54 |
| bryant | It was at 2/5 bars. | 21:54 |
| bryant | ChogyDan: Let me test. | 21:54 |
| bryant | ChogyDan: Better signal, same bit rate. | 21:54 |
| dotnetted03 | minimec: yep - that works with no problems | 21:55 |
| dewman | has anyone tried arista transcoder with 10.04? Everytime I try to start it on my machine it never comes up | 21:55 |
| minimec | dotnetted03: And you get a connection? Well that some kind of success, isn't it? ;) | 21:55 |
| bryant | ChogyDan: MUCH better speedtest readings. I'm getting 5mb down, almost 1mb up with 27 ping | 21:55 |
| dotnetted03 | minimec: I got a connection before I rebooted - now I can ifdown/ifup all I want and cant get a connection | 21:56 |
| ChogyDan | bryant: still only 1mb? o well, probably not much else practical you can do. OH | 21:56 |
| bryant | ChogyDan: Before it was at 1mb down, 0.75mb up | 21:56 |
| onetinsoldier | svu: looks like you might be looking for 'ffmpeg', i don't know if 'winff' would be of any help. might look at those though | 21:56 |
| dotnetted03 | minimec: the reboot killed whatever decided to work | 21:56 |
| svu | onetinsoldier, ffmpeg in ubuntu is without libfaac :( | 21:56 |
| svu | so cannot to mp3 | 21:57 |
| svu | AFAIK | 21:57 |
| JeffFromOhio | Can anyone tell me which config file in Ubuntu 9.10 sets the default global PATH environment variable? | 21:57 |
| JeffFromOhio | I thought it would be in /etc/profile | 21:57 |
| JeffFromOhio | but it's not | 21:57 |
| bryant | ChogyDan: What if I run that command again to see if it was applied? IF it was, it won't have anything to update right? Could you give me the command again please? | 21:57 |
| minimec | dotnetted03: That is strange... and not ubuntu/linux like. In what way does the 'ifup' command fail. is there some error feedback? | 21:57 |
| onetinsoldier | svu: oh... hrrmm | 21:57 |
| duffydack | onetinsoldier, as long as you enable the medibuntu repo it will install the restricted extras for ffmpeg.. | 21:57 |

| onetinsoldier | duffydack: roger. svu is the one wanting it | 21:58 |
| dotnetted03 | minimec: it doesn't fail - it works - by 'connection' I meant that there is no network connection being made - the ifup/ifdown commands work but dont set the SSID (as it did before the upgrade) | 21:59 |

| Timon2 | The problem is that i have done a rest on my router, and after that it stopped working | 22:01 |
| dotnetted03 | minimec: from daemon.log it seems like when I 'ifup wlan0' wpa_supplicant attempts to assosicate the SSID with the driver and fails continuously | 22:01 |

Anyone have any insight? I would greatly appreciate it. | 22:05 |
| Jimbobjim | iv tried using other desktops at the bottom right but it doesnt seem to work | 22:05 |
| Jimbobjim | aaah now i get it | 22:06 |
| duffydack | onetinsoldier, the thread yes. But the actual guide is like 4 or 5 commands. | 22:06 |
| Jimbobjim | its like dual screen | 22:06 |
| Jimbobjim | u drag things to the right | 22:06 |
| Gryllida | can you name something what is present in DVD editiion but not in the CD edition of Ubuntu? | 22:06 |
| onetinsoldier | duffydack: roger. i like that he uses 'checkinstall' :) | 22:07 |
| Jimbobjim | does everyone here use irssi in terminal for irc? | 22:07 |
| egc | Timon2, u can do it a couple ways: System->Administration->Log Viewer and look at the messages entry, or in a terminal type "sudo view /var/log/messages" | 22:07 |
| Gryllida | Jimbobjim, no, chatzilla addon for firefox | 22:07 |
| dancek | Jimbobjim, rather irssi in screen in terminal :) | 22:07 |
| minimec | Jimbobjim: yes I do... | 22:07 |
| Jimbobjim | can you teach me any cool tricks? | 22:07 |
| egc | Timon2, view is the same as vi, but read-only | 22:07 |
| MindVirus | I need to put stuff on my iPod. How do I do this? | 22:07 |
| |2-bits| | Jimbobjim: just x-chat | 22:07 |
| Jimbobjim | i know ctrl+(n or p) for going between windows | 22:07 |
| Jimbobjim | what useful shortcuts are there? | 22:08 |
| dotnetted03 | minimec: "iwconfig wlan0 essid routerssid" shows no output (so I assume no error) yet "iwconfig" still shows a blank ESSID and daemon.log is still showing continuous wpa_supplicant association request errors | 22:08 |
| JeffFromOhio | Which config file in Ubuntu 9.10 sets the default PATH environment variable? It is NOT /etc/profile, which is what I would have expected. | 22:08 |
| minimec | Jimbobjim: start with the irssi homepage. Afterwards your free ;) | 22:08 |
| Gryllida | Jimbobjim, *might* be #irssi | 22:08 |
| Timon2 | egc, and i am looking for what? | 22:08 |
| MindVirus | I need to put stuff on my iPod. How do I do this? | 22:09 |
| minimec | dotnetted03: a simple iwconfig should show you your card with the essid you entered. Is that true? | 22:09 |
| dancek | Jimbobjim, also you often get far by googling other people's configs for any app that's on the configurable side | 22:09 |
| egc | Timon2, if it were me i would look for messages that look like they came from the network subsystem, or drivers | 22:09 |
| === blendmaster1024 is now known as PigeonCluster | ||
| egc | Timon2, or just any messages that print around the time that you experience issues | 22:09 |
| dominicdinada | ok i followed the restricted video formats but totem still is erroring about the codecs... they are installed but totem doesnt find the codes ever what can i do | 22:10 |
| egc | Timon2, this helps narrow the issue | 22:10 |
| dotnetted03 | minimec: the SSID stays blank in iwconfig (even after manually setting it) | 22:10 |
| Timon2 | he seems to connect, to scan, and then disconnect a few times | 22:11 |
| === Cain` is now known as Cain | ||
| CogitoErgoSam | dominicdinada, you can try using VLC media player as well | 22:11 |
| dancek | MindVirus, I don't really know but maybe look at http://en.kioskea.net/faq/191-managing-ipod-without-itunes and use some of the suggested apps? | 22:11 |

| Gadget3000 | MindVirus: I dont use ipods much but gnupod and i think its qtpod works well | 22:11 |
| egc | Timon2, right, so that's the kind of message that would be helpful | 22:12 |
| dominicdinada | CogitoErgoSam: I prefer not to use vlc... I have it but totem is built in and well file associations in lucid for some reason dont stick maybe i should ask how to fix totem instead | 22:12 |
| CogitoErgoSam | Other suggestion re: ipod touch / iphone: Jailbreak it so you can modify it via SSH | 22:12 |
| dominicdinada | dotnetted03: have you tried to manually write the wpa_supplicant.conf file | 22:12 |
| Gryllida | could someone link me to ubuntu dvd edition ~ someone mentioned it to me yesterday evening but I can't find it | 22:12 |

| Gadget3000 | MindVirus: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PortableDevices/iPod | 22:13 |
| egc | dominicdinada, probably only livecd | 22:13 |
| minimec | dotnetted03: hmmm... Long time I have done this before... ;) Normally you should be able to do the wlan setup with iwconfig (or /etc/networkinterfaces, which does the same), and then stat ifup. That's the way we did it in good old times... Am I right? Check again if you have a nm-applet process running ... | 22:13 |
| dotnetted03 | dominicdinada: not yet - but the wpa settings were working in /etc/network/interfaces before upgrading to 10.04 (as wpa-*) | 22:14 |
| dominicdinada | egc: Gryllida once you burn ubuntu to a dvd it is a live cd (dvd) | 22:14 |

| EvilC2 | hi | 22:16 |
| Gryllida | guntbert, okay, but now I need to know the difference between dvd and cd edition, not that I see it at that page | 22:16 |
| dominicdinada | egc: Please read who is asking questions and who is helping i didnt ask how to dvd it? asking what Gryllida meant by dvd edition | 22:16 |
| minimec | dotnetted03: Try to connect without wpa encryption once... | 22:16 |
| FabParma | Is it possible to create a pesonalized iso image before to download Ubuntu?. For instance like Slax Linux that allow to choose what pacages to include into the iso | 22:17 |
| dominicdinada | dotnetted03: is your router using wpa encryption also ? | 22:17 |
| minimec | dotnetted03: I mean ... configure the router to accept connection without wpa... | 22:17 |
| Chrysalis | hi | 22:18 |
| EvilC2 | i've some questions about upgrading linux kernel. The lastest version I think (apt-cache search linux-image) is 2.6.28. But, i should try .generic, .server or virtual. It is for a personal computer. Then i think i should need .generic only. I'm wrong ??? | 22:18 |
| guntbert | Gryllida: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/downloadmirrors#dvd | 22:18 |
| dotnetted03 | minimec: Ill try that now - Ill get kicked from IRC while I do - be back in a sec, thanks for the help guys | 22:18 |
| onetinsoldier | svu: hello again. you might want to look at this... http://www.heroinewarrior.com/cinelerra.php | 22:18 |
| minimec | dotnetted03: ok ;) | 22:18 |
| guntbert | Gryllida: I'd say don't bother :-) | 22:19 |
| aaron | i transfered files from one hdd to another but i need the empty space back after deleting them......what do i need to do....killdisk won't install | 22:19 |
| FabParma | It's possible to choose which pacages to integrate before to download the iso image from internet? | 22:19 |
| Chrysalis | I have a sound problem. After upgrading to ubuntu 10.04. My master volume does not work, nor do I have access to sound preferences. I need to have this fixed. I have tried to re-install my alsa drivers as well, which may have caused further problems. Please help!! | 22:20 |
| Fopp | Hi guys, my sound has stopped working in ubuntu all of a sudden. I asked earlier, but the guy helping me didn't know what to do, any ideas? thanks | 22:20 |
| Gryllida | guntbert, just which one do I choose? cd or dvd? | 22:20 |
| [fade] | weird, gotta check my sound now | 22:20 |
| egc | dominicdinada, please dont waste my time telling me how to read, just ignore it if it's not helpful | 22:20 |
| dbee | hey, can anyone help me with a grub rescue question? | 22:20 |
| minimec | FabParma: no, but you can use the altenate CD. That will give you the options you want... at least when you install ubuntu. | 22:20 |
| dbee | if so please pm me | 22:20 |
| Gryllida | Chrysalis, I would start with finding a hard drive that works | 22:21 |
| FabParma | minimec: thanks | 22:21 |
| guntbert | Gryllida: as they say: the main benefit of the DVD downloads is to get access to all of the available language packs. Most people will be fine with the standard CD installer. -- stick with the CD | 22:21 |
| minimec | FabParma: np ;) | 22:21 |
| Gryllida | dbee, no, just state your issue in details here | 22:21 |
| Gryllida | !details | 22:21 |
| ubottu | 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 ..." | 22:21 |
| Gryllida | dbee, don't get confused by that it's crowded here, just state your full problem :) | 22:21 |

| dbee | i installed ubuntu to my external hard drive and when it is not connected grub rescue comes up | 22:22 |
| dbee | and i kinda like it cause its somewhat of a security measure but i would like to know how to load my windows partition should something happen to my external hard drive | 22:22 |
| Gryllida | dbee, what does this grab rescue suggest to do? | 22:22 |
| dbee | also i have a toshiba laptop and i had to disable acpi to get ubuntu to boot. is there any sort of fix i can do so that it works with acpi? i like battery management. also how do i update ubuntu? | 22:23 |
| BluesKaj | dbee, is your windows partition listed in grub? | 22:23 |
| dbee | yeah | 22:23 |
| abid | is it possible on ubuntu to recover files from deleted partitions (windows xp partition) which i have deleted and my have written over completely three or four times (since installing several linux distros), or am i just talking crazy? | 22:23 |
| dbee | it works perfectly when the external is connectedr | 22:23 |
| wystie | /quit | 22:23 |
| dbee | connected* | 22:23 |
| BluesKaj | then just scroll down to windows in grub and click on it | 22:24 |
| dbee | if the external is not connected grub rescue comes up and i do not have that option | 22:24 |
| dbee | it points to the device UUID and says it cant find it | 22:24 |
| dbee | do i need to /mount /dev/sda1 or something | 22:25 |

| BluesKaj | ok, dbee , you set the windows partition to default after however many time secs you'd like in /etc/default/grub/ | 22:26 |
| aaron | boy do i feel like a retard!!!!!! | 22:27 |
| abid | dancek: well i dont know that, i'm looking for a system registry file (windows) and my hard drive capacity is about 180gb, so may be it still hasn't been written over, (i've only used about 20gb sofar) | 22:27 |

| UK | Does Wubi use the same amount of RAM assigned for Windows? or it can use more? | 22:28 |
| f00bar80 | any comment ? | 22:28 |
| Slart | f00bar80: you can run "sudo -i" to get a root shell.. but never need to actually log in as root to do anything that I know of | 22:28 |

| dbee | /etc/default/grub/ works with grub rescue? | 22:28 |
| aaron | <onetinsoldier> thanks | 22:29 |
| dancek | abid, if you look at the raw device you'll see the data, so basically you just go through 180gb of data with a hex editor or so... | 22:29 |

| talk_17 | I use Ubuntu 10.04. It does not gave me any notification about ATI on system tray after new format. And Compiz works very fast. But now i see on "hardware drivers" about ATI . What that means ? I have to install it or not ? | 22:29 |
| jabirali | f00bar80, "sudo -s" does what "su" would have done on your old systems (use _your_ password, no root password), "sudo -i" does what "su -" would have done, "sudo" acts like "su -c" | 22:29 |
| abid | dancek: oh boy... is there a program that can make my torment easier? | 22:29 |

| dotnetted03 | DCGStudios: trying now - thnx | 22:30 |
| Traintop | which one is the newest driver for an intel mobile 945gme-card ? | 22:30 |
| [fade] | real player does not waste time | 22:30 |
| minimec | talk_17: open a terminal and give us the output of 'lspci | grep VGA' | 22:30 |
| jabirali | abid, what's your problem? Data recovery? | 22:30 |
| dbee | can someone please help me | 22:30 |
| dbee | i am in need of serious help | 22:30 |
| DCGstudios | dotnetted03, no problem. after thats up run dhclient eth0 (or whatever your interface is) in order to gain and IP. | 22:30 |
| dancek | abid, since the partition and file allocation tables are gone (they were in the beginning of the disk), there's really no automated way afaik | 22:30 |
| talk_17 | minimec : 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RV670PRO [Radeon HD 3850] | 22:31 |
| jabirali | abid, dancek, yes there is ;) | 22:31 |
| Gryllida | dbee, what is the list of commands you see in grub rescue? | 22:31 |
| jabirali | abid, check out foremost | 22:31 |
| Traintop | dbee: what's your problem: I just entered the channel... | 22:31 |
| dancek | abid, you might also want to consider that windows was installed on an empty disk and system files were probably in the beginning of the disk | 22:31 |
| dancek | jabirali, hmm, interesting | 22:31 |
| jabirali | abid, all file names will be gone, but that app will scan through the harddrive to look _inside_ files for known file structures, and recreate the files | 22:31 |
| mood7 | hello, anyone knows if there is a free reverse dns service somewhere for ipv4? | 22:32 |
| jabirali | abid, so you will get all uncorrupted data back, but have to restore the file names manually | 22:32 |
| dbee | gryllida, should i check and come back? im not sure as of right now | 22:32 |
| minimec | talk_17: generally... if it's there... you can install it. If you're happy with the running system, try the opensource driver a little bit more. I guess you will have some problems with googleearth... | 22:32 |
| abid | jabirali: i was looking at foremost, i just wanted to make sure i was on the right path. | 22:32 |
| dbee | traintop, i have no problem with you im just trying to get some help | 22:32 |
| jabirali | abid, dancek, http://foremost.sourceforge.net/ | 22:32 |
| jabirali | abid, aha :) | 22:32 |
| Gryllida | dbee, I think you need to select *something* there in grub rescue, not that I see how to avoid it | 22:33 |
| talk_17 | minimec: oh. no problem. i am happy now. thank you! | 22:33 |
| Traintop | dbee: yeah I know, I'm trying to help you: but I have to know your problem... :-) | 22:33 |
| abid | i've also found a how-to (http://www.ubuntugeek.com/recover-deleted-files-with-foremostscalpel-in-ubuntu.html) | 22:33 |
| dbee | lol | 22:33 |
| dotnetted03 | DCGstudios: so that was [iwconfig wlan0 ap "ANY"] ? | 22:33 |
| abid | thanks guys hopefully this will solve my problem | 22:33 |
| DCGstudios | dotnetted03, iwconfig wlan0 ap --"ANY" | 22:33 |
| dbee | i installed ubuntu to a external hard drive. when i boot without the drive connected, grub rescue comes up. how would i boot my windows partition if i didnt have the external hard drive | 22:33 |
| minimec | talk_17: Try to install googleearth once... and how is the video playback. try some HD videos from youtube.... ;) | 22:33 |
| dancek | abid, just out of general interest -- which file are you looking for? | 22:34 |
| talk_17 | minimec: hmm ok... | 22:34 |
| jabirali | abid, I've used foremost before with success, it's worth trying out ;). Just remember to lket foremost write to a different partition than the one you're recovering, or you'll destroy the data you try to recover ;) | 22:34 |
| dbee | there is nothing to select it is asking me for input | 22:34 |
| Ddorda | hey there guys, did anyone try Ubuntu on MSI Wind U135? how is it? | 22:34 |
| soreau | talk_17: Sounds like you have an HDxxxx series card. This is supported by both the open radeon driver (which is the default) and the proprietary driver (fglrx) | 22:34 |
| soreau | talk_17: I would recommend sticking with the open radeon driver | 22:34 |
| Traintop | dbee: looks like you set up your ubuntu to use your internal first disk for the grub-booter, which you shouldn't do in this scenario | 22:34 |
| dotnetted03 | DCGstudios: err I just got it working with "iwconfig wlan0 essid any" - it registered to the right essid and internet works - why wouldn't it work when I specify a specific essid? | 22:34 |
| === trumee is now known as zzztrumee | ||
| minimec | soreau: That's what I wanted to figure out ;) | 22:35 |
| Gryllida | Ddorda, I think very few people can say about whether they used it on a certain hardware, better luck asking at the forums or mailing list | 22:35 |
| dbee | oh i should have done it so that the external was the only thing that had ubuntu? that way if i wanted it to boot i would select usb from bios? | 22:35 |
| Traintop | dbee: set the boot-record of your external for this and let the internal managed by win/proprietary os... | 22:35 |
| soreau | minimec: which part? | 22:35 |
| DCGstudios | dotnetted, oh man mabey that option doesnt work with ap my bad lol i thought it did. as for the essid who knows mabey typo? | 22:36 |
| Traintop | set your bios to boot from external disks ( I assume it's a usb-one) before internal ones, this should get you gooing | 22:36 |
| BluesKaj | dbee, have you edited etc/default/grub as i suggested above ? | 22:36 |

| lucid_lynx | What should I put in my /etc/fstab file to mount my external USB flash drive in /media/usb? | 22:38 |
| minimec | dotnetted03: Don't ask... just be amazed... ;) | 22:38 |
| Gryllida | linxeh, install windows *first* and Ubuntu *second* | 22:38 |
| jabirali | lucid_lynx, that should usually happen automatically through HAL... | 22:38 |
| dbee | ok im in the file | 22:38 |
| dbee | what do i need to add to the grub file | 22:39 |
| jabirali | lucid_lynx, but ok: | 22:39 |
| linxeh | Gryllida: I have. | 22:39 |
| dotnetted03 | minimec: heh it may work now - but it's working without authentication and without being locked to a specific ssid - so not really working heh | 22:39 |
| soreau | jussi: Could use a numeric date instead to conserve space *shrug* | 22:39 |
| Traintop | dbee: if you set up a discs first sector to contain grub it "hard codes" to look for config-files,etc, if this disc isn't there, it can't find them so you end up in rescue mode or just hanging the system, if you want to be able to boot your system without the external disc you have to leave the internal discs managed by the proprietary os installed on them (I assume this would be windows :-)) | 22:39 |
| DCGstudios | dotnetted03, iv found that connecting via ESSID is unreliable unless its a hidden network.. just looked it up and 'iwconfig wlan0 ap any' is a supported command as well, just not the full --"ANY" option | 22:39 |
| linxeh | Gryllida: I know I should be able to fix this (I've been dual booting Linux systems since sometime in 1995), but Ubuntu have quite a custom grub config, and the os-prober config isnt picking up my XP partition | 22:39 |
| dbee | how do i uninstall grub from the internal hard drive then, and how do i set the external to boot properly | 22:40 |
| linxeh | Gryllida: both XP and Ubuntu are hapilly installed, I just have lost the XP boot option in grub | 22:40 |
| Traintop | dbee: then set your bios to boot the external disc before the internal ones and let grub enter the first sector of the external one | 22:40 |
| jabirali | lucid_lynx, /dev/sdX1 /media/usb vfat users,umask=000 0 0 | 22:40 |
| Gryllida | linxeh, no idea, boot from live cd and dig in some .conf files about grub | 22:40 |
| minimec | dotnetted03: Yeah... That wpa_supplicant thing... did you try WEP encryption? Let's go a step further... | 22:40 |
| DCGstudios | dotnetted03, also, if you want an IP address for internet connectivity your going to need to start up your going to have to start up your dhclient service. | 22:40 |
| deshymers | ya I'm not the only person with wireless network issues today :P | 22:41 |
| jabirali | lucid_lynx, replace the X depending on your machine; check "ls /dev/sd*" before and after attaching your USB device, and see what file is added | 22:41 |
| Traintop | dbee: I am no windows geek, but there is some command involving "-fixmbr" to do that from win, then boot ubuntu from live-cd and install/reinstall linux on the external one and when it comes to install grub, be sure you select the external drive as the location of grub | 22:41 |
| linxeh | Gryllida: i dont think that will help. the grub config files are untouched (as far as I know anyway) | 22:41 |
| dotnetted03 | minimec: I guess I can survive with WEP instead of WPA - I'm looking up how to set it now | 22:42 |
| markus_ | My bluetooth icon looks strange sometimes. Its overdrawn with some random stuff. Guess its a gnome bug? | 22:42 |
| linxeh | Traintop: fdisk /mbr | 22:42 |
| dotnetted03 | DCGstudios: gotcha - thanks for the help | 22:42 |
| linxeh | Traintop: it might be different on vista/7 though perhaps | 22:42 |
| dbee | ok. there is no way to just add it to the external? cause i did alot of configuration on ubuntu and i dont wanna redo it | 22:42 |
| scyx | does anyone know the icon filename of the panel applet handle ? the small thing you use to drag applets on the panels | 22:42 |
| Traintop | dbee: linexh posted the command | 22:42 |
| DCGstudios | I really wouldnt reccommend WEP for anyone who wants real security | 22:43 |
| linxeh | dbee: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314058 | 22:43 |
| dbee | that is the command i do inside linux? | 22:43 |

| dbee | oic | 22:43 |
| Traintop | in german it's "MS-DOS-Eingabeaufforderung" no idea how this translates to english... | 22:44 |
| dotnetted03 | DCGstudios: is there a more integrated equivalent on wpa-supplicant in 10.04? something that can handle WPA2 without additional software | 22:44 |
| dbee | i think i can handle that part im somewhat windows literate. the part im not so sure of is how to change the external to be able to boot correctly. | 22:44 |

| DCGstudios | hubar, its far from that easy. | 22:47 |
| Traintop | DCGstudios: this is no option, I'm running linux for more than 8 years now, and I don't want to go back to win for just one game... | 22:48 |
| hubar | Traintop, ahh, yeah, it craps out on my laptop too. :) But that is what desktop is for. | 22:48 |
| === [J] is now known as juju2143 | ||
| DCGstudios | Traintop, iv been using linux for 7 years and played WoW for 6. The preformance you sacrifice even if you do get it running makes virutal machines and windows emulator far from a viable option. | 22:49 |
| Traintop | hubar: I know the intel 945 is not very competitve, but I think it SHOULD work somehow... | 22:49 |
| dbee | thank you for your help. i guess i will just do a reinstall | 22:49 |
| Traintop | DCGstudios: on my girlfriend's pc we have a dual-boot and wow runs just as nice as in win, same fps, same responsiveness... :-) | 22:50 |
| dbee | can you help me with one other thing | 22:50 |
| deshymers | So when i first start my netbook I can connect to my router just fine, but when i suspend or close the lid and open it again It cant connect to the router, I'm a little lost on where I can start trouble shooting this issue | 22:50 |
| Traintop | dbee: what other thing? | 22:50 |
| DCGstudios | Traintop, your best off just making a small 25G partition specificly for games then recovering your grub via boot CD. | 22:50 |
| Traintop | so, is i915 the current correct kernel-module for my card? | 22:51 |
| dbee | when i first tried to use live cd i had to disable acpi | 22:51 |
| KaOSoFt | Do you know a way to add the auto-scroll feature of Firefox to Chromium? You know, the middle mouse button feature. | 22:51 |
| dbee | how can i fix this i dont wanna have acpi disabled all the time | 22:51 |
| dbee | and also how do i update everything | 22:51 |
| DCGstudios | Traintop, if your stuck on using WINE, then expect aot of bugs, less preformance, and an extended amount of time to setup. theres more information on installations at appdb.winehq.org | 22:51 |
| Zaria | help | 22:52 |
| Traintop | dbee: sorry, but acpi settings in ubuntu is far beyond my knowledge, perhaps somone else can help you, but here I have to give up... :-( | 22:52 |
| Traintop | dbee: what do you mean by "update everything" ? | 22:52 |
| Traintop | DCGstudios: I have searched winehq, but there are no/no helping infos about using an i945gme | 22:53 |
| salah_ | Hi. Any good torrent applications for Linux/Ubuntu? (Gnome) | 22:53 |
| dbee | update ubuntu and the security and stuff | 22:53 |
| === salah_ is now known as salah | ||
| DCGstudios | Traintop, the amount of people iv heard of getting full preformance games running on bug reports and tutorials i can count on 1 hand. youll need to figure out the bug and fix it your self as most bugs in WINE are very specific. | 22:54 |
| Traintop | dbee: this should normally be handled by either synaptic or the update-manager; all gui-apps, so quite self-explanatory | 22:54 |
| dbee | awesome ty i didnt know about either of those | 22:55 |
| Slart | salah: there are several.. depending on what you're looking for.. myself I use Vuze/Azureus | 22:55 |
| Traintop | DCGstudios: this I'm quite sure of now, but as I have to say my netbook is quite new, so this my first intel-vga: is i915 even the right kernel-module for it? ... -I dont't know... :-( -so I thought I just ask here, as here are the people knowing a lot about ubuntu and there should be some people here running on an 945gme... :-) | 22:56 |
| Slart | salah: you might want to look at rtorrent or deluge as well.. I hear utorrent is working with the wine developers as well.. so it runs well using wine | 22:56 |
| bluegoon | Can we see Catagories in the Software Center on 10.4? :( | 22:56 |
| salah | Slart, I used uTorrent on Windows. Simple and with a lot of functions (like file priority, bandwidth limitation etc) | 22:56 |
| Traintop | dbee: you're welcome :-) | 22:56 |
| salah | Slart, And something near that would be great. | 22:57 |
| === juju2143 is now known as [J] | ||
| Slart | salah: well.. I haven't used utorrent on linux myself.. but give it a try.. see if it works for you | 22:57 |
| bluegoon | Guys, is it possible to see catagories in the Software center? | 22:58 |
| bluegoon | im using 10.4 | 22:58 |
| rafaelsoaresbr | Traintop, yes, i915 is the right module | 22:58 |
| dotnetted03 | DCGstudios: stripping all the wpa-supplicant stuff out and using pre-ups fixed everything - thnx for the help | 22:58 |

| Blastermx | Hello, is Brasero what format should I burn the images in for it to play in most standard dvd players? | 22:58 |
| salah | Slart, works right of the box with Wine :) | 23:00 |
| wildbat | hi, everyone know where d i set gvfs option? i wanna make it mount upon logon and change the permission setting of the mount. | 23:00 |
| Slart | salah: yes.. they've designed it to work with wine.. instead of writing a native version | 23:01 |
| Blastermx | anyone here use Brasero burning software? | 23:01 |
| Slart | Blastermx: yes | 23:01 |
| Blastermx | what format should I convert a image to | 23:01 |
| Blastermx | it had like 3 options | 23:01 |
| Traintop | rafaelsoaresbr: thanks, so if e.g. compiz is running, could I assume the vga-subsytem is good enough to give opengl-apps their basis... ? -but anyways; -thanks a lot! | 23:01 |
| mataks | after i upgraded from karmic to Lucid. everytime I boot I can't see any Boot screen or Bot logo sumthing.. all i see is some kind of a distorted small text at the top of my monitor.. why is that.. help please | 23:01 |
| Slart | Blastermx: I use brasero to burn data disks and sometimes iso-images... I don't even understand what you're asking | 23:02 |
| Blastermx | Slart, I got a camera and it does movies in .avi format and I need to burn that into a image to burn to CD | 23:02 |
| Slart | mataks: probably the new splash screen thingy.. plymouth or whatever it's called | 23:03 |
| mataks | after i upgraded from karmic to Lucid. everytime I boot I can't see any Boot screen or Bot logo sumthing.. all i see is some kind of a distorted small text at the top of my monitor.. and i always get this notification everytime gdm starts "Could not apply the stored configuration for monitors X server does not support size requested" why is that.. help please | 23:03 |
| mataks | Slart, do you know how to fix this? | 23:03 |
| rafaelsoaresbr | Traintop, here i can run opengl based app. | 23:03 |
| Slart | Blastermx: try devede, I've used that to burn movies, tv-series and such.. it makes nice little menus and everything | 23:03 |
| Blastermx | Slart, like Native or PAL or NTSC | 23:03 |
| Dmstrdj | i would like to pm a staffer if any are available | 23:03 |

| jussi | Dmstrdj: sure, whats up | 23:04 |
| Slart | Blastermx: PAL and NTSC is the format used .. NTSC is used in the US mostly.. I think almost everyone else uses PAL | 23:04 |
| jussi | Dmstrdj: pm me if you need | 23:04 |
| Traintop | rafaelsoaresbr: compiz runs fine for me, not the fps I got on my desktop but it works... ! -do you know of an irc-channel about intel vga, or similar? | 23:04 |
| Blastermx | thanks Slart | 23:04 |
| Blastermx | that was confusing me lol | 23:05 |
| Slart | mataks: hmm.. not really.. it might be a graphics driver issue.. what kind of graphics card are you using? | 23:05 |
| KaOSoFt | salah, qBittorrent is also a good option, and kind of similar to uTorrent. | 23:05 |
| KaOSoFt | Do you know a way to add the auto-scroll feature of Firefox to Chromium? You know, the middle mouse button feature. | 23:05 |
| Slart | Blastermx: you're welcome | 23:05 |
| cis | rafaelsoaresbr: are you getting issues with compiz? | 23:05 |

| Traintop | cis: no he isn't ( I hope), just helped me with my i945gme-prob... :-) | 23:05 |
| Blastermx | Slart should I use ratio 4:3 or 16;9 for aspect ratio | 23:05 |
| rafaelsoaresbr | sory, cis, yes, sometimes it crashe | 23:06 |
| Slart | mataks: are you using the binary nvidia driver? | 23:06 |
| KaOSoFt | arand, on Chromium. | 23:06 |
| arand | KaOSoFt: Oh, sorry, misunderstood the question :) | 23:06 |
| Traintop | rafael...:sorry, on my netbook it's running stable | 23:06 |
| Slart | Blastermx: depends on what kind of TV you're going to watch it on.. 4:3 is regular square TV.. 16:9 is wide screen | 23:06 |
| cis | Traintop: I see... | 23:06 |
| rafaelsoaresbr | Traintop, don't know any irc channel | 23:07 |
| Dmstrdj | i just want a cloak am i in the wrong place to ask | 23:07 |
| Slart | Dmstrdj: hmm, I think so.. tried #freenode ? | 23:07 |
| Blastermx | thanks I will try 4:3 and if that makes it look blurred I guess I will try wide | 23:07 |

| Traintop | cis: which I could not find any information about on google... :-( | 23:09 |
| Slart | mataks: mm.. I think plymouth is using something called kernel modesetting.. (I'm not entirely sure what that is).. but I don't think that works with the binary nvidia driver.. that's probably why you're having issues with it.. if you do a fresh install of lucid it will use nouveau which is another nvidia driver that supports kernel mode setting | 23:09 |
| cis | rafaelsoaresbr: just thought that i could help you... | 23:09 |
| cis | Traintop: sorry... I don't even know what WoW is... | 23:10 |

| mataks | Slart, can i just use Nouveau instead ? | 23:11 |
| Traintop | all: "a mmorp" is this correct, or is "an mmorp" correct, sorry, but I am no native-english... | 23:11 |
| Slart | mataks: sure.. you'll lose some 3d acceleration though.. but give it a try | 23:11 |
| Blastermx | I got a 9800 GT and I know in wine it plays steam games like CS and CS:S, but it is kinda laggy even for me. I say just do a partition of windows if you want to play the games more smooth, since they don't support linux yet | 23:11 |
| zeleftikam | Can anyone recommend a good backup utility? | 23:12 |
| Slart | mataks: I think just uninstalling the binary nvidia driver will make it go back to the nouveau driver | 23:12 |

| Slart | !info backintime | zeleftikam | 23:12 |

| ubottu | zeleftikam: Package backintime does not exist in lucid | 23:12 |
| Slart | mataks: sounds like a good plan.. hopefully nouveau will make plymouth looks sharp and nice | 23:13 |

| magician11 | okay thanks. I got a new machine.. it's pretty quick which is nice... When the computer starts up though the screen is black, and the first thing I see is the login screen. What happened to the 'splashscreen'? | 23:21 |

| floogy | or sth like video nouveafb:mode_option=1366x768-24 mtrr=3 scroll=ywrap | 23:25 |
| floogy | ??? | 23:25 |
| ZykoticK9 | Corin`, to have a script be able to install software without a password you'd have to use sudoers to allow ALL users to install any software they wanted (breaks the entire root/install system basically) | 23:25 |
| Corin` | sorry i explained badly ZykoticK9 | 23:26 |
| Corin` | im running it as root | 23:26 |
| Corin` | but it asks me to enter the new mysql root password twice | 23:26 |
| test34 | ZykoticK9, can't you specify the password in the command? | 23:26 |
| floogy | Where is that stuff documented? I prefer some documents like a wiki not to technical... | 23:26 |
| Tobbi | Hey, when I insert the LiveCD, I only get a white man in a white circle and something that looks like a vertical line. | 23:26 |

Is there anyway with ubun | 23:26 |
| Tobbi | Any ideas? | 23:26 |

| xangua | !firewall | sosooo | 23:43 |
| ubottu | sosooo: 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. | 23:44 |
| infid | how can i scan for local wireless computers? | 23:44 |

| josefine | hi all, how do i connect automaticly to my wireless network, it keeps asking for keyring code | 23:48 |
| ubuowner | I have a dimension 2400 that I just put an Nvidia 6200 and did a fresh install of 10.04 installed hardware drivers but I can't enable compiz because it is seeing the intel chipset instead of the nvidia chipset the video is actually going through is there a way to fix this? | 23:48 |
| rafase282 | Can anyone help me with using grub2 to boot isos from a usb? | 23:48 |
| purpley | Hey guys my comp keeps looping, when I boot up it goes to the grub thing and reboots what should I do and what manual should I be reading? | 23:48 |
| ubuowner | the nvidia driver is enabled | 23:48 |
| icedwater | sosooo: As suggested earlier, there should be graphical frontends for the ufw thing. | 23:48 |
| icedwater | sosooo: Have you tried searching in Synaptic for ufw? | 23:49 |
| icedwater | Maybe you'll find something relevant there. | 23:49 |
| mkquist | purpley: you can boot with a live cd to help diagnose your system, or boot into a recovery mode | 23:49 |
| mkquist | purpley: have you tried booting to recovery mode? does that work? | 23:49 |
| purpley | Mkquist I can't go into recovery, it loops when I boot that up | 23:49 |
| mkquist | purpley: live cd? | 23:49 |
| ubuowner | is there a way to force ubuntu to use the nvidia and ignore the intel chipset | 23:50 |
| Kalisto | ok nvidia drivers messed things up whats the apt-get command to get standard out of the box non proprietary graphics drivers? | 23:50 |
| purpley | Mkquist haven't tried that yet not entirely sure where I placed my live cd | 23:51 |
| xangua | ubuowner: yes, buy an nvidia card | 23:51 |
| mkquist | purpley: you can modify your grub entry to remove the quiet, that might help you 'see' what happening | 23:51 |
| ubuowner | xangua thank you I just put an nvidia geforce 6200 in the pc | 23:52 |
| ubuowner | like 20 minutes ago | 23:52 |
| ubuowner | thanks for being rude | 23:52 |
