| sebsebseb | Agu10: most of them even | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| SwedeMike | midnightd: oki, then I can't really help you, sounds like a driver issue. | 00:00 |
| Agu10 | sebsebseb: for example this one is nvidia's | 00:00 |
| sebsebseb | Agu10: yes | 00:00 |
| Agu10 | sebsebseb: but neither is windows BSOD then... | 00:00 |
| Gartral | coz_: i never used gui to mount/umount i allways use umount /media/drive/ name | 00:00 |
| sebsebseb | Agu10: and if they had an open source driver that you could install :) probably | 00:00 |
| max101 | LinuX2half : works more than anticipated. | 00:00 |
| sebsebseb | Agu10: no if you get a BSOD in Windows | 00:00 |
| acerimmer | Reign25: go here and download the 32 or 64 bit package for your box | 00:00 |
| acerimmer | http://www.broadcom.com/support/802.11/linux_sta.php | 00:00 |
| sebsebseb | Agu10: it means something major has happended | 00:00 |
| coz_ | Gartral, right but many use gui so :) | 00:00 |
| sebsebseb | Agu10: could be a virus, could be a bad driver, could be failing hardware | 00:00 |
| midnightd | swedemike: weird. nothing changed between yesterday and today. thanks anyways | 00:01 |
| Agu10 | sebsebseb: yeah... lol | 00:01 |
| Reign25 | acerimmer: How would I install it? | 00:01 |
| sebsebseb | Agu10: Blue Screen Of Death is kind of funny though, how Windows is meant to be all user friendly, and then people will sometimes get that, and most people don't know what it means | 00:01 |
| LinuX2half | There's nothing wrong with Brasero except for giving error of burning images | 00:01 |
| peturi | Hi im a developer, How can i get my application accepted to the repos? | 00:01 |
| sebsebseb | Agu10: and it will provide geek info, and make it so they can't use their computer | 00:01 |
| philw | flyeng4, you've got to the point in the instructions where it tells you to plug it in? that should ensure it's a a device i would think. either way dmesg should help | 00:01 |
| LinuX2half | I never get it to work properly | 00:01 |
| GeekSquid | peturi: launchpad.net/ubuntu | 00:02 |
| geoaxis | hello people | 00:02 |
| Gartral | coz_: can you unmount just one at a time? | 00:02 |
| acerimmer | Reign25: i'm ;assuming you'll usb copy it. go into root account, extract it, and I believe you'll get a *deb file. Click on that and follow prompts. | 00:02 |
| sebsebseb | Agu10: geek info? I mean Windows fan boy info :D anyway getting off topic now | 00:02 |
| geoaxis | how can i disable evolution dataserver | 00:02 |
| coz_ | Gartral, well if I unmount one partition they all unmount with error | 00:02 |
| geoaxis | i just shut down gdm and there is still a process hanging in there | 00:02 |
| LinuX2half | So there isn't any error with the log ? http://paste.ubuntu.com/434076/ | 00:02 |
| Agu10 | sebsebseb: well, I still get lots of bugs while at ubuntu. I don't get them at windows, even when using the same programs | 00:02 |
| Reign25 | acerimmer: thank you very much. I appreciate it. | 00:02 |
| sebsebseb | Agu10: depends on the apps | 00:02 |
| sebsebseb | Agu10: in that case | 00:02 |
| Agu10 | sebsebseb: I think they might not care too much | 00:03 |
| acerimmer | Reign25: actually i was wrong | 00:03 |
| Gartral | coz_ is this a flash drive, cd card, or hdd? | 00:03 |
| Gartral | sd card* | 00:03 |
| hoglahoo | Why isn't the ubuntu sound indicator thingymajig recognizing my onboard sound card? I know it isn't my board, because I have the same issue with two different boards. I have no sound at all | 00:03 |
| acerimmer | Reign25: you're going to have to use the command line for a bit but it's all documented in the readme.txt | 00:03 |
| flyeng4 | philw: the only line in the tail of dmesg that has anything to do with usb is usb0: unregister 'cdc_ether' usb-0000:00:1d.7-2, CDC Ethernet Device. Does it make sense to you? | 00:03 |
| LinuX2half | okay, I'll install one more burning tool | 00:03 |
| LinuX2half | that'll total to three | 00:03 |
| Agu10 | sebsebseb: I get 1 error out of 5 programs I install. is that acceptable? | 00:03 |
| gridbag | ps -ef shows that my "X" process is called with "-nolisten tcp". What file do I change to eliminate that? | 00:03 |
| LinuX2half | I've to uninstall the other two | 00:03 |
| sebsebseb | Agu10: depends on the program, and the error | 00:03 |
| Agu10 | hah? | 00:04 |
| coz_ | Gartral, this is the error when unmounting one partition http://dl.dropbox.com/u/132551/screenshots/unmount%20error | 00:04 |
| philw | flyeng4, looks like that is your device. try "ifconfig usb0" | 00:04 |
| coz_ | Gartral, this is a harddrive | 00:04 |
| sebsebseb | Agu10: also most programs install just fine for me, from the Ubuntu repo, or well I use Mandriva as well these days, and the programs from their repos work good as well | 00:04 |
| kroson | hi people | 00:05 |
| sebsebseb | Agu10: so if your getting an error, every five programs you install in to Ubuntu, something is wrong | 00:05 |
| flyeng4 | philw: usb0: error fetching interface information: Device not found | 00:05 |
| kroson | does the normal 32-bit version of ubuntu also work on netbooks? | 00:05 |
| jdpond | UEC installation (frontend) will not install on clean 64bit machine, wiping everything. Problem seems to be that postfix will not install and subsequently crashes grub at startup. Any clues? | 00:05 |
| Gartral | coz_: use normal pastebin, i dont know how to read .drvimg | 00:05 |
| kroson | the normal one, not the netbook edition | 00:05 |
| Reign25 | acerimmer: Oh alright. Thanks for mentioning that. I'm somewhat familiar with Linux, but not too much. Thanks again. I'll try that tonight. | 00:05 |
| kroson | id like to use the normal interface instead of the Remix! | 00:05 |
| coz_ | Gartral, oh I thought I pasted the dropbox file hold on | 00:05 |
| hoglahoo | how do I tell ubuntu to recognize my sound card? | 00:05 |
| bazhang | kroson, sure it does | 00:05 |
| sebsebseb | kroson: yes | 00:05 |
| sebsebseb | kroson: how much space does your net book have? hard disk space? | 00:06 |
| jdpond | ^^LTS 10.04 | 00:06 |
| bastid_raZor | hwo might i disconnect a remote ssh session from the server side.. pts/2 ? | 00:06 |
| kroson | bazhang: but are there any changes in the kernel? | 00:06 |

| kroson | its an eee 901 | 00:06 |
| bazhang | kroson, from 9.10? | 00:06 |
| celeborn999 | kroson: i installed the regular release on an hp netbook with a 16GB hard drive and i am pleased with it | 00:06 |
| SwedeMike | hoglahoo: if you provided what kind of sound card you have, someone might be able to give you an answer. | 00:06 |
| philw | flyeng4, sounds like the device is not setup right yet. was that with it plugged in I take it :) | 00:07 |
| hoglahoo | it's a realtek onboard | 00:07 |
| Blastermx | Gdesklet work for anyone on 10.04? | 00:07 |
| kroson | sebsebseb: and the fonts will look fine? i want to have a normal interface but i want to browse the web and check mail in evolution normally XD | 00:07 |
| LinuX2half | hm, taking a long time | 00:07 |
| Blastermx | I took upgrade and it will not work | 00:07 |
| philw | flyeng4, not setup right in the sense that further work is needed on the beagle | 00:07 |
| nasri | hi | 00:07 |
| sebsebseb | kroson: I tried netbook remix 10.04, in a vm, didn't install to my virtual hard disk. anyway you got the log in screen yeah? | 00:07 |
| SwedeMike | hoglahoo: use "lshw" and find exactly what model it is. | 00:07 |
| SwedeMike | hoglahoo: sudo lshw -C sound | 00:08 |
| sebsebseb | a development version that was. and they disappeared, ah well | 00:08 |
| hoglahoo | SwedeMike: ac '97 | 00:09 |
| SwedeMike | hoglahoo: that should work out of the box, you should look into dmesg output and see if you can find something there. | 00:09 |
| ph1g | If you are editing a file with cat, how can you up go back up a line in bash? | 00:09 |
| heg | bastid_raZor: sudo netstat -anpt , search pid and kill it. That's what i do. | 00:09 |
| icedwater | I've got mini.iso and I just installed xserver-xorg on it - how do I set up a minimal X server so I can open graphical apps if I need to but I can spend most of my time in console? | 00:09 |
| hoglahoo | it worked out of the box for 2 years. then i upgraded to 10.04 from 9.04 and it has not worked properly since | 00:10 |
| hoglahoo | Is there an interpreter for dmesg output? :) | 00:10 |
| SwedeMike | ph1g: edit files with cat? how? | 00:10 |
| flyeng4 | philw: yes but not booted :) | 00:10 |
| flyeng4 | I now have a usb0 device | 00:11 |
| ph1g | Redirection | 00:11 |
| bastid_raZor | heg: nice, thank you. | 00:11 |
| flyeng4 | philw: sorry about that, I unplugged it and plugged it back in to make sure I captured it in dmesg but forgot to boot the device | 00:11 |
| ph1g | cat <<EOF > name_of_file <ENTER> line1 <ENTER> line2 <CTRL-d> | 00:11 |
| SwedeMike | ph1g: wouldn't really call that "edit", but ok... moving up a line, I don't think that can be done. | 00:11 |
| flyeng4 | philw: anyway, I have a usb0, what do you recommned now | 00:12 |
| flyeng4 | SwedeMike: i now have a usb0 device showing up in ifconfig if you have any poinrters | 00:13 |
| bastid_raZor | heg: i cleary need to touch up my netstat skills | 00:13 |
| LinuX2half | max101: k3b gave me an error | 00:13 |

| Matr|X | Slart http://paste.ubuntu.com/434069/ | 00:14 |
| noname | Hi there . i duno if is it the right place to ask this question , but Can somone tell me where can i find linux version that have no mode graghic | 00:14 |
| noname | :) | 00:14 |
| hoglahoo | SwedeMike: thanks, but I don't think I am finding anything with dmesg output that will help my solve the issue on my own. I appreciate it though, maybe I can use that to find something on the google | 00:14 |
| SwedeMike | noname: "no mode graphics" ? | 00:14 |
| flyeng4 | SwedeMike: access the internet through the package manager on the device | 00:14 |
| LinuX2half | As I always dreaded the situation to be like this | 00:14 |
| philw | flyeng4, this is where I bow out... you need to set up an ip address on usb0 which is appropriate to talk to the device | 00:14 |
| Fozo | umm I want to install this so I can renistall another distro can anyone help | 00:14 |
| icedwater | On another note, I need some help with GRUB ... the autodetecting is a bit misaligned. | 00:15 |
| icedwater | I have Karmic on another partition, but when it's autodetected by the os-prober, the root= value is wrong. | 00:15 |
| icedwater | It's the correct root= partition for my Lucid install, but if I want to start Karmic I have to edit the grub entry each time. | 00:15 |
| jdpond | noname: use server version LTS? | 00:15 |
| flyeng4 | philw: thanks for your help thus far | 00:15 |
| * k1ng\ <3 k1ngdom.net | 00:15 | |
| SwedeMike | flyeng4: oki, then you need to set IP adress in the same subnet as the device with the same netmask (use ifconfig usb0 <ip> netmask <netmask>), then add default route to the device IP | 00:15 |

| bazhang | Fozo, explain clearly what you wish to do, all on one line | 00:17 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: ah right | 00:17 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: ok delete the Mint partition | 00:18 |
| acerimmer | syme: double check your software source settings | 00:18 |
| max101 | LinuX2half : Reduce the write speed 2x instead. (looks like buffer error) | 00:18 |
| bazhang | Fozo, you wish to install Mint? | 00:18 |
| hoglahoo | Why isn't the ubuntu sound indicator recognizing my onboard sound card? I know it isn't my board, because I have the same issue with two different boards. I cannot get any sound to play | 00:18 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: get any data off it first of course, if you got something on there you want to keep | 00:18 |

| ubottu | Fozo, please see my private message | 00:19 |
| flyeng4 | SwedeMike: I can now ping the laptop from the device but I can't ping google | 00:19 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: delete the Mint partition on the Ubuntu Live CD, so you can install Ubuntu | 00:19 |
| Monotoko | guys...if i run UNR from an external HDD, will it kill the drive?? | 00:19 |
| Fozo | Okay I have two issues one I can't boot into to windows and am working on fixing it. But I can not even load into Mint anymore I had Ubuntu live cd laying around so I figured I could install this and see if I could boot windows | 00:19 |
| SwedeMike | flyeng4: can you ping 8.8.8.8 ? | 00:19 |
| Monotoko | or are they robust (as an internal HDD?) | 00:19 |
| LinuX2half | max101: http://paste.ubuntu.com/434085/ | 00:20 |
| flyeng4 | SwedeMike: no | 00:20 |
| icedwater | Oh well ... connection's dropping off again. | 00:20 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: any idea why? | 00:20 |
| SwedeMike | flyeng4: is the device you're trying to connect thru, doing NAT for you? | 00:20 |
| LinuX2half | max101: it doesn't reach to 2x only to 4x | 00:20 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: maybe you already had Mint on there, and then re installed Windows? | 00:20 |
| Fozo | Windows or mingt? | 00:20 |
| Fozo | mint* | 00:20 |
| SwedeMike | flyeng4: what happens if you do traceroute 8.8.8.8, do you at least get to the first device? | 00:20 |
| Fozo | Mint I have a guess | 00:20 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: if you put Ubuntu on, it will do Grub again for you, but Ubuntu doing it this time, not Mint | 00:21 |
| flyeng4 | SwedeMike: no -- "Can't find interface" | 00:21 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: then Ubuntu and Windows should both boot up | 00:21 |
| flyeng4 | SwedeMike: but i can still ping 0.1 | 00:21 |
| SwedeMike | flyeng4: so I guess you didn't add a default route? | 00:21 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: What happens at the moment when you turn on the computer? | 00:21 |
| Fozo | I installed a driver and restarted it boots and loads then instead of log in screen I h=get a blank screen | 00:21 |

| LinuX2half | max101: its the lowest as it can go | 00:24 |
| acerimmer | syme: icu. wait 1 | 00:24 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: 1. download Ubuntu ISO 2. md5sum check it at least, so you know you have a good ISO 3. burn contents of ISO to CD. 4. boot computer from CD. 5. install Ubuntu and whilst doing so delete the Mint partition and put Ubuntu on. oh and can do seperate /home even whilst doing that, makes future re installs easier | 00:24 |
| Fozo | okay umm now can you walk me through installation process? | 00:25 |
| acerimmer | syme: main repos must be enabled. Typically i just enable all repositories as my distro is fairly standard. | 00:25 |

| Fozo | http://imagebin.ca/view/9pBKRMtD.html here ya go | 00:30 |
| FreeFull | I just upgraded to 10.04 and when I attempt to boot normally, the machine eventually stops doing anything, just displaying the Xubuntu logo. Alt-sysrq doesn't work. | 00:30 |
| SwedeMike | flyeng4: hm, why did you not provide ip -4 a l as I asked ? | 00:30 |
| Agu10_ | sebsebseb: I'm downloading 9.10 | 00:30 |
| LinuX2half | max101: are you still with me? | 00:30 |
| dexter_ | what is a good forum or chanel that could tell be the best wireless headset/headphones i could buy | 00:31 |
| flyeng4 | SwedeMike: sorry I only saw the r l | 00:31 |
| SwedeMike | flyeng4: and you need to disable wifi if you're going to access via the usb0, you have two default routes on the computer | 00:31 |
| max101 | LinuX2half : yes | 00:31 |
| flyeng4 | SwedeMike: http://pastebin.com/sEqnWqcY | 00:32 |
| FreeFull | Can anybody help me figure out at what point during the boot it hangs? | 00:32 |
| flyeng4 | SwedeMike: can I disable the LAN instead? | 00:32 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: uhmm I didn't need to see that | 00:32 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: anyway yeah at the bottom | 00:32 |
| SwedeMike | flyeng4: why did you default route to yourself instead of to the other end IP ? | 00:32 |
| LinuX2half | max101: alright, then should there be an issue with the driver or something else the matter? | 00:32 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: manual install option, do next on that. and tell or show me, what partitions you got on there | 00:33 |
| max101 | LinuX2half : what are you using pc or laptop? | 00:33 |
| flyeng4 | SwedeMike: I thought that the other end IP meant the other end of the cable not the other end of the network | 00:33 |
| LinuX2half | max101: laptop | 00:33 |
| EzeQL | SwedeMike: "*/8 * * * * php /home/www/verslwk.com/test.php" is this the correct sintax for a cronjob executing each 8 minutes? | 00:33 |
| Fozo | I just thought it would be easier. Do you want to switch to whisper? | 00:33 |
| hoglahoo | psssst hey | 00:33 |
| SwedeMike | flyeng4: hm, sorry, you have to remove the default routes out over both wifi and eth0 if you want to run internet over your usb0 | 00:33 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: by the way, before you install, you didn't go with encrypted home I hope :) | 00:33 |
| max101 | LinuX2half : laptop ? which one. | 00:33 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: if so don't do that | 00:33 |
| LinuX2half | max101: Vaio VGN B100B UC | 00:34 |
| Fozo | encyrpted home? | 00:34 |
| flyeng4 | SwedeMike: also when I do ip -4 r a default via 192.168.1.1 I get RTNETLINK answers: Network is unreachable | 00:34 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: yeah there's an option, but it's not the default :) | 00:34 |
| Fozo | in which menu? or page? | 00:34 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: maybe you haven't seen it yet. anyway you don't want that | 00:34 |
| flyeng4 | SwedeMike: How do i disable eth0 and wifi? | 00:35 |
| max101 | LinuX2half : did you check the HCL with ubuntu? | 00:35 |
| SwedeMike | flyeng4: but you have 192.168.0.0/24 set on usb0, why are you trying to default route via 192.168.1.1 ? | 00:35 |
| SwedeMike | flyeng4: right-click on network icon | 00:35 |
| SwedeMike | flyeng4: oh... you're in debian? | 00:35 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: what partitions does it tell you you have? | 00:35 |
| LinuX2half | max101: I definitely did not. I do not know the term | 00:35 |
| ZenGuy311 | is there a music player that will play songs from archive zip or rar files like foobar2000 can in windows? | 00:35 |
| Fozo | hold on | 00:35 |
| sebsebseb | ZenGuy311: not sure, but you can run foobar2000 in Wine | 00:36 |
| myrl | does this work: https://68.5.244.72/ it is apache2 | 00:36 |
| max101 | LinuX2half : Hardware compatibility list | 00:36 |
| flyeng4 | SwedeMike: I set 0.0 on usb0 because I thoght it had to be the same as the device 0.202 | 00:36 |
| LinuX2half | max101: no, I haven't check any of those lists | 00:36 |
| Fozo | http://imagebin.ca/view/TMZJyW.html | 00:36 |
| ZenGuy311 | sebsebseb: I'm running jolicloud which is based on ubuntu jaunty 9.04, foobar2000 jitters sometimes when I play music | 00:37 |
| SwedeMike | flyeng4: oki, so you need to default route to 192.168.0.202 and remove all other default routes | 00:37 |
| sebsebseb | ZenGuy311: well maybe #winehq can help you get it working better in Wine | 00:37 |
| flyeng4 | SwedeMike: how do I do that? | 00:38 |
| Fozo | http://imagebin.ca/view/TMZJyW.html | 00:38 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: ok that looks a bit odd in a way | 00:38 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: well the names of the partitions and that | 00:38 |
| Fozo | why? | 00:38 |
| SwedeMike | flyeng4: ip -4 r a default via 192.168.0.202 then "ip -4 r d default via 192.168.1.1 dev wlan0 " and "ip -4 r d default dev eth0" | 00:38 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: /dev/mapper stuff | 00:39 |
| dexter_ | what wireless headpones/headset can i buy that will be compatible with ubuntu | 00:39 |
| Fozo | i dunno | 00:39 |
| EzeQL | how can i check if a crontab is running? | 00:39 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: ok well | 00:39 |
| Fozo | mint thing prob | 00:39 |
| SwedeMike | dexter_: wireless how? bluetooth? | 00:39 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: ntfs is Windows | 00:39 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: so you leave those alone | 00:39 |
| flyeng4 | SwedeMike: will my laptop be able to access the internet after doing this? | 00:39 |
| Flannel | EzeQL: You mean in general? or "right now"? or what? | 00:39 |
| Fozo | yah I'm aware | 00:40 |
| LinuX2half | max101: Still contemplating? | 00:40 |
| EzeQL | i have configured a cronjob but it seems its not working | 00:40 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: why have you got two Ext4's and one Ext3? | 00:40 |
| SwedeMike | flyeng4: it'll access it via the beaglebox if everything works, but it wont work via any other path | 00:40 |
| EzeQL | how can i check it? | 00:40 |
| Flannel | EzeQL: What's the line in your crontab? | 00:40 |
| dexter_ | SwedeMike, my desktop doesn't have a bluetough attapter plus i don't know of any good headphones that have that feture | 00:40 |
| Fozo | some advice I got i dunno | 00:40 |
| SwedeMike | dexter_: HS-1200 works in ubuntu anyway | 00:40 |
| hoglahoo | lol fozo | 00:40 |
| EzeQL | */8 * * * * php /home/www/vemba.nl/test.php | 00:40 |
| max101 | LinuX2half : Vaio VGN B100B UC !!! | 00:40 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: that was stupid advice then by the sounds of it | 00:40 |
| Fozo | that's my word today | 00:40 |
| Flannel | EzeQL: Is that the last thing in your crontab? | 00:41 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: what is stupid? | 00:41 |
| LinuX2half | max101: Yes that's my model. | 00:41 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: Do you know what each of those partitions is currently being used for? | 00:41 |
| SwedeMike | EzeQL: yes, that should work. | 00:41 |
| dexter_ | SwedeMike, thanks | 00:41 |
| Fozo | it was so I could have mutiple distros and a storage | 00:41 |
| flyeng4 | SwedeMike: is there a way to get the beagleboard to access the internet trough the laptop instead of the laptop access the internet through the beagleboard? | 00:41 |
| Monotoko | will i nacker up my external HDD running an OS from it?? | 00:41 |
| Fozo | I mean dunno | 00:41 |
| brent | hey, a computer my mom gave me last time I went to visit my parents that was actually better than my old one only had 2 slots of ram so I could not use all my ram | 00:41 |
| brent | so I only have a gig. | 00:41 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: How much RAM do you have? Which version of Windows is currently on there? | 00:41 |
| Fozo | i dunno what | 00:42 |
| SwedeMike | flyeng4: yes, but since you're running debian that might be tricky, see if you can find something about Internet Connection Sharing for your distro | 00:42 |
| Flannel | EzeQL: Make sure you have a blank line afterwards. crontab lines need to have a newline at the end of them. (easiest to just hit return a couple of times, make a comment line about not putting anything below that comment, andthen hit return once more) | 00:42 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: hrm | 00:42 |
| Fozo | I know ext 4 as Mint | 00:42 |
| EzeQL | Flannel, just test and worked. | 00:42 |
| Fozo | the others I think have no mount | 00:42 |
| sebsebseb | ok | 00:42 |
| flyeng4 | SwedeMike: will do ... I will do this before I do your commands. Thanks for your help so far! | 00:42 |
| EzeQL | but it seems some php code its not working | 00:42 |
| Fozo | first two won't work | 00:42 |
| EzeQL | Flannel, how can i check the output of the crontask? | 00:42 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: well we'll sort the partitions out | 00:42 |
| Fozo | but alas | 00:42 |
| brent | However, its slow as shit now.. Even though my old comp was a single athlon xp 2100+. This is a dual core Athlon X2 3800+. Itś MUCH slower. The main thing is that its ALWAYS thrashing the hd. I was going to get more ram.. | 00:42 |
| * Monotoko sighs.. | 00:42 | |
| SwedeMike | flyeng4: np. if you get cut off restart networking and you should be back | 00:43 |
| brent | Iḿ talking... it will thrash for three hours straight. I installed a new distro, another distro, right now Iḿ using ubuntu studio | 00:43 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: How much RAM does your computer have? Which Windows? | 00:43 |
| flyeng4 | SwedeMike: 10-4 | 00:43 |
| Fozo | uhh can I check in Ubuntu I think like 4 gigs or so | 00:43 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: You mentioned other distro's, if you want to do that ok, but I suggest doing it in a virtual machine inside Ubuntu | 00:43 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: 4GB is way more than what you need for a vm | 00:43 |
| brent | so.. I need more than a gig of ram right? well... I look at the system monitor and I only am using 59.8% of my 875 of ram (Itś being used up by onboard video) AND my swap is only using 8.4gb.. so... I feel like more ram wouldn do anything | 00:43 |
| Fozo | ahh brain melt | 00:43 |
| Flannel | EzeQL: Any output should be mailed to you, so check /var/spool/mail, it might be easier to just run it manually "php /var/www/whatever.php" | 00:43 |
| Fozo | vm? | 00:44 |
| Flannel | EzeQL: Especially while you're troubleshootnig | 00:44 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: virtual machine | 00:44 |
| erisco | how can I translate my mouse movement into joystick movement? there is joymouse, but it goes the opposite way | 00:44 |
| max101 | LinuX2half : http://webapps.ubuntu.com/certification/list/?category=Laptop | 00:44 |
| EzeQL | Flannel , it works manually :) | 00:44 |
| mkquist_ | brent: how big is you swap? | 00:44 |
| Fozo | oh well I just want my windows back | 00:44 |
| brent | 1l4gb | 00:44 |
| mkquist_ | brent: your* | 00:44 |
| EzeQL | but it seems it does not under a cron | 00:44 |
| Fozo | but one thing at a time | 00:44 |
| danand | Fozo: Type free in a terminal to see the amount of ram you have | 00:44 |
| brent | stupid fricken international keyboard support | 00:44 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: Virtualbox :) if you haven't done that before right ok, well it's an awesome thing you can do later on. However first time to replace Mint with Ubuntu, since that's what you want. | 00:45 |
| Monotoko | will running ubuntu from an External shorten the external's life? IS it expected to last as long as an internal??? | 00:45 |
| LinuX2half | max101: hm, my computer isn't listed. | 00:45 |
| Fozo | ty | 00:45 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: right so in those Linux partitions, you have all data baked up else where? they are ready to to bye bye ? | 00:45 |
| sebsebseb | to go | 00:45 |
| brent | mint never did the same one I have set like this. I want to be able to use the right alt key for extra characters but now when I hit the single quote key.. nothing happens. I have to hit it like thirty times and then it prints a random character | 00:45 |
| LinuX2half | max101: is that suppose to be an issue.? | 00:45 |
| Fozo | the only data I have on Mint is a game, which I needed drivers for so no | 00:46 |
| brent | anyway.. Iḿ just frustrated because. .. how could a dual core X2 3800+ literally be worthless to use while my old athlon 2100 XP ran seriously twice as fast | 00:46 |
| Fozo | It is ready to "go bye bye" | 00:46 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: right so there is no data to back up? | 00:46 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: ok | 00:46 |
| max101 | LinuX2half : a wild guess; have you installed any other version before. | 00:46 |
| Fozo | nothing I want | 00:46 |
| brent | when it comes to pure computation power... then this one is better.. but overall proformance is WAY down. I can have more than like 2 firefox or chrome windows open with anything else or its just constant hard thrashing | 00:46 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: delete the Linux partitions | 00:46 |
| mkquist_ | Monotoko: probably run slower if its usb | 00:46 |
| Fozo | woah waaaahhhh why? | 00:47 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: hrm maybe, gparted is better to use for this, well we'll see | 00:47 |
| LinuX2half | max101: Other version? What version are you referring to? | 00:47 |
| SwedeMike | brent: when swapping it won't help if you have an gigacore processor from 2100, it'll still be slow because hd is slow. | 00:47 |
| Monotoko | mkquist_ its my only option, it has a 1GB internal memory card...i was just wondering if it would shorten its life | 00:47 |
| Fozo | all o em? | 00:47 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: since your going to get rid of Mint completly, and then put Ubuntu on. Wel that's what I thought you wanted? | 00:47 |
| max101 | LinuX2half : Ubuntu? | 00:47 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: only the Linux partitions, leave NTFS alone | 00:47 |
| mkquist_ | Monotoko: doubt it, still just a hard drive afterall | 00:48 |
| Fozo | i know | 00:48 |
| Fozo | okay will it transfer to empty? | 00:48 |
| Random832 | how do i fix "networking disabled"? i can't use the menu to set up my network [i had to do iwconfig in a terminal] | 00:48 |
| mkquist_ | Monotoko: what is it? | 00:48 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: you can keep the swap there | 00:48 |
| === u is now known as Guest70990 | ||
| sebsebseb | Fozo: that Mint made | 00:48 |
| Random832 | also - grub gave me an error about could not load font or something | 00:48 |
| Monotoko | mkquist_, the device? An O2 Joggler (lil touchscreen device) | 00:48 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: in fact I suggest keeping the swap there that Mint made | 00:48 |
| LinuX2half | max101: To make the tale short, I install Jaunty, removing Windows then upgrade to Karmic. So then attempting to upgrade to Lucid Lynx but failed terribly. So currently now came Windows again, along with Ubuntu Lucid Lynx | 00:48 |
| Fozo | okay but as I delete will it go to empty space | 00:49 |
| Random832 | i managed to edit grub.cfg from a livecd, but that's only a temporary fix and it didn't give me a menu it just booted to the latest kernel (when i SPECIFICALLY wanted to resume my earlier kernel) | 00:49 |
| hoglahoo | Why isn't Ubuntu properly accessing my onboard sound? In the sound preferences, there is no hardware device available to configure | 00:49 |
| Random832 | someone help? | 00:49 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: yes as you delete, it will g to empty space | 00:49 |
| sebsebseb | go to | 00:49 |
| LinuX2half | Max101: Then Windows failed as well | 00:49 |
| Fozo | then I must fill! | 00:49 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: then your going to create two new partitions in the empty space, but we'll get to that | 00:49 |
| danand | brent: Can you see what's eating up all the memory in your system to cause it to swap? | 00:49 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: delete them first | 00:49 |
| sebsebseb | the Mint | 00:49 |
| Gozar | How do I enable two 8400GS for 3 monitors in 10.04 with Nouveau? | 00:49 |
| Fozo | hey hey hey I gots an ideas | 00:50 |
| hoglahoo | oo oo | 00:50 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: which is? | 00:50 |
| max101 | LinuX2half : karmic is more stable; Lucid is having certain issues.. | 00:50 |
| Fozo | sorry I'm lazy today with speech but, can I try and boot windows with Linux gone?/ | 00:51 |
| acerimmer | Fozo: Keep It Simple! | 00:51 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: you could, but... | 00:51 |
| mkquist_ | max101: what issues? | 00:51 |
| LinuX2half | max101: do you want me to elaborate the situation for you.? | 00:51 |
| Fozo | but...? | 00:51 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: you would have to use the Windows CD, to restore it's boot loader | 00:51 |
| hoglahoo | max101: is there a simple way to downgrade or is it hopelessly involved/ | 00:51 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: CD/DVD | 00:51 |
| Fozo | oh! | 00:51 |
| EzeQL | what "sementation fauls" means? | 00:51 |
| Fozo | then nvm | 00:51 |
| SwedeMike | !downgrade | hoglahoo | 00:51 |
| ubottu | hoglahoo: Attempting to downgrade to an older Ubuntu version is explicitly not supported, and may break your system. | 00:52 |
| psusi | EzeQL, it means the program crashed | 00:52 |
| mkquist_ | Fozo: cant you boot to windows with grub now? Im guessing noy | 00:52 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: well there is one other way, but I don't know about that | 00:52 |
| hoglahoo | thanks | 00:52 |
| Fozo | nay sir mkquist_ | 00:52 |
| sebsebseb | mkquist_: indeed Mint seems to have messed up, Windows and Mint from booting, now he wants Ubuntu to replace Mint | 00:52 |
| Fozo | okay I have a staus report on the way | 00:52 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: status report? | 00:52 |
| Random832 | anyone else ran into either of these errors? | 00:52 |
| Daekdroom | I bought a new USB Keyboard and XServer now sees my F1-12 keys as other keys, how can I remap them to actually match the F1-F12 keys? | 00:52 |
| mkquist_ | Fozo: trying fixing grub? | 00:53 |
| hoglahoo | actually, using my 9.04 live cd doesn't solve my issue either. so I am not sure what I've done. there's probably a software not properly installed | 00:53 |
| EzeQL | wow | 00:53 |
| EzeQL | this is so complex | 00:53 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: Ubuntu is better than Mint anyway :) | 00:53 |
| Fozo | LOoL! figure of speech and can't Mint does not load | 00:53 |
| max101 | LinuX2half : were your CD's burning as expected in karmic? | 00:53 |
| rotten777 | anyone have any idea of how to remove a folder that is trying to sync from the u1 sync? it was marked as a child under another folder I marked to sync but I moved it and don't want to sync it | 00:53 |
| LinuX2half | max101: No it failed as well. | 00:53 |
| mkquist_ | Fozo: have to agree with sebsebseb on that | 00:53 |
| EzeQL | psusi=> "test <br />Segmentation fault" | 00:53 |
| EzeQL | psusi => "test <br />Segmentation fault" | 00:53 |
| EzeQL | this is what i get | 00:54 |
| Fozo | http://imagebin.ca/view/rCTKoKLm.html | 00:54 |
| LinuX2half | max101: NTFS partition is located at /dev/sda and Ubuntu is located at /dev/loop0 | 00:54 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: ok that looks ok | 00:55 |
| Fozo | okay | 00:55 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: I am not so sure what the numbers mean though | 00:55 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: when it comes to sizes | 00:55 |
| Fozo | 30 g | 00:55 |
| mkquist_ | Fozo: is thar your only hd? | 00:55 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: which has what? | 00:56 |
| mkquist_ | Fozo: that | 00:56 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: I think maybe the Mint partitions should be removed in gparted first, since manual install is rather limiting for this kind of thing | 00:56 |
| Fozo | look I'm short on time and this works for me | 00:57 |
| Fozo | I make one ext 3 | 00:57 |
| sebsebseb | mkquist_: I want him to have the / for Ubuntu, but also /home :) however yeah gparted? remove Mint partitions in there first? or you got another idea by any chance? | 00:57 |
| Fozo | one ext 4 | 00:57 |
| Fozo | at mount / | 00:57 |
| LinuX2half | max101: are you still here? | 00:57 |
| Fozo | ext 3 mount /home | 00:57 |
| hoglahoo | why doesn't firefox work on my machine? after I upgraded to 3.6, it worked for about 15 minutes then quit. I've purged firefox and reinstalled, but when I run the program it doesn't get any farther than "Firefox starting" and then it closes | 00:57 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: which one is taking up 30GB? | 00:57 |
| mkquist_ | sebsebseb: does he have more than one hd? | 00:57 |
| brent | sorry .. I had a phone call | 00:57 |
| brent | <danand> brent: Can you see what's eating up all the memory in your system to cause it to swap? | 00:57 |
| max101 | LinuX2half : yes | 00:57 |
| brent | ... nothing is eating up my ram | 00:57 |
| Fozo | they are gone now | 00:57 |
| brent | <danand> brent: Can you see what's eating up all the memory in your system to cause it to swap? | 00:57 |
| brent | so the only question Iḿ asking... forget the hard drive or anything. This is a theoretical question. IF I am only using 56% of my physical ram and 8.4% of my swap.. then more ram shouldnt increase any proformance, correct? | 00:58 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: no they aren't untill you have applied properly. | 00:58 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: you want like 10GB or so / and big seperate /home | 00:58 |
| max101 | LinuX2half : https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport. | 00:58 |
| Fozo | well yah but in theory they are | 00:58 |
| brent | I only have 875mb of ram because of the ram sticks I had (I had 2gb before in 4 sticks) | 00:58 |
| Fozo | gots it! | 00:58 |
| brent | er.. 1.5 | 00:58 |
| max101 | LinuX2half : That all my friend..sorry | 00:58 |
| sebsebseb | Fozo: and you use Ext4 | 00:58 |
| brent | even with 875, Iḿ only using 56% of it.. and only 8.4% of my swap | 00:58 |
| Fozo | beginning or end? | 00:58 |

| Daekdroom | I bought a new USB Keyboard and XServer now sees my F1-12 keys as other keys, how can I remap them to actually match the F1-F12 keys? | 00:59 |
| brent | Tihs is completely linux memory management question. If Im only using 56% of 875mb of ram and 8.4% of swap, then more ram wont do anything beneficial right? | 00:59 |
| Daekdroom | Yes, brent | 00:59 |
| mkquist_ | brent: shouldnt | 00:59 |
| brent | sigh | 01:00 |
| brent | well, there goes my weekend | 01:00 |
| Daekdroom | Swap is used to store libraries that the system think that MIGHT be used | 01:00 |
| brent | right... | 01:00 |
| brent | I know what swap is | 01:00 |
| Fozo | i g2g I shall be back I willl leave up | 01:00 |
| brent | sorry, Iḿ just frustrated because I was so excited to have a newer better computer | 01:00 |
| wizard_ | brent: if you want more speed, you need to look into processors not RAM. RAM isnt much of an issue for most people these days. Anyone with at least 1GB should be OK for most tasks. | 01:00 |
| Daekdroom | well, wizard, faster RAM does something | 01:00 |
| Daekdroom | Specially with IGPs | 01:00 |
| brent | I can not figure out why a dual core X2 3800+ is worse than an athlon 2100 single core | 01:01 |
| wizard_ | Daekdroom: not much. | 01:01 |
| Daekdroom | There's so much more beyond that, brent | 01:01 |
| brent | ... yes | 01:01 |
| Daekdroom | HD speed affects a lot of how fast your system looks | 01:01 |
| brent | looks? | 01:01 |
| wizard_ | Seeks* | 01:01 |
| Daekdroom | Yeah. Program loading time | 01:01 |
| Daekdroom | No, looks as in "appears" | 01:01 |

| bill_torvalds | comment je vais sur le offtopic ? | 01:02 |
| wizard_ | Daekdroom: how fast your system "appears" makes no sense to me. Elaborate. | 01:02 |
| mkquist_ | brent: ubuntu 32 or 64 bit? just curious | 01:02 |
| brent | 32 | 01:02 |
| Daekdroom | wizard_: Well, a faster HD might give the false impression that the system is faster because it'll be more responsive when it comes to load time. | 01:02 |
| bazhang | lets get back on topic please | 01:02 |
| brent | Im not using the 64 bit version because... I couldn think of any reason to | 01:02 |
| brent | maybe its just linux | 01:02 |
| hoglahoo | what's the topic? | 01:02 |
| bazhang | bill_torvalds, #ubuntu-offtopic | 01:02 |
| hoglahoo | ah | 01:02 |

| max101 | LinuX2half : Its the Hardware..Put on the output on screen; other could try.. bye | 01:02 |
| hoglahoo | excellent. I am having issues with ubuntu myself | 01:03 |
| brent | because, strangely enough, using this computer in windows (I tried it for the first time in 5+ years).. it ran.. crazy perfect | 01:03 |
| brent | I ran it for 2 days before I switched back and it was perfect the entire time | 01:03 |
| wizard_ | Daekdroom: you said it makes you system "appear" faster. What does that mean? The language used makes no sense in regards to computers as far as I can tell. What do you mean by "appear" when used in teh context which you used it? | 01:03 |
| bazhang | wizard_, Daekdroom #ubuntu-offtopic | 01:03 |
| wizard_ | brent: same problem here for a few of my machines. They run Windows fine and fast, but Ubuntu is sluggish, oddly enough. | 01:03 |
| Daekdroom | bazhang: Don't worry, I'm getting back on topic. | 01:03 |
| brent | wizard_, thank you for that and the daekdroom comment | 01:03 |
| hoglahoo | Why isn't Ubuntu properly accessing my onboard sound? In the sound preferences, there is no hardware device available to configure | 01:04 |
| bill_torvalds | thanks | 01:04 |
| brent | Iǘe been using computers for 20+ years, Iḿ a developer and ive been using linux for 4-5 years now as well full time | 01:04 |
| brent | I took what he said as a dumbing down for non technical person thing, but thats probably just a fault of mine | 01:04 |
| LinuX2half1 | max101: are you there? | 01:04 |
| brent | I realize that since I keep focusing n the cpu that it probably seems like I think that you can completely base it off that | 01:05 |

| shadertest | LinuX2half1: install gentoo | 01:07 |
| mkquist_ | Agu10: you could try sudo umount /media/XP-LUCAS, then try mounting it where you want i guess... | 01:08 |
| LinuX2half1 | what gentoo? | 01:08 |
| LinuX2half1 | I thought its an operating system. | 01:08 |
| naxa | which package holds the default ubuntu wallpaper? ( i wan't to get karmic's) | 01:08 |

| hoglahoo | jatt: I agree | 01:08 |
| jatt | is there a way to set it horizontally | 01:08 |
| jatt | is a mess | 01:08 |
| hoglahoo | I rue upgrading to lucid | 01:08 |
| jatt | I cannot change the volume easily | 01:08 |
| hoglahoo | I cannot even get volume | 01:09 |
| SpinachHead | is the adobe-flashplugin the recommended pkg? | 01:09 |
| naxa | jatt: I updated but mine is still horizontal. so it seems possible, but i don't know why mine is like this :) | 01:09 |

| jatt | I see | 01:09 |
| sebsebseb | LinuX2half1: I think there's some command you could run that will try and repair a NTFS | 01:09 |
| jatt | there must be a way to configure it a gconf key or something | 01:09 |

| LinuX2half1 | sebsebseb: it had a issue with the activation, it won't login due to some prevention. | 01:11 |

| LinuX2half1 | sebsebseb: I was updating Windows to SP3 to make it English readable. | 01:12 |
| sebsebseb | LinuX2half1: the activation? if you got those kind of issues, I think there is a number you can ring up. anyway better off asking the Windows stuff in ##windows really | 01:12 |
| sebsebseb | LinuX2half1: however, if people have installed Windows a few times, and then it won't activiate, there is a number they can ring up | 01:12 |
| LinuX2half1 | sebsebseb: I did ask them and they said burn a copy of the disk; which I can't because there are some issue with it | 01:12 |

| mathieu | and then Ubuntu automatically fixes dual booting, but I don know how that is when Windows is installed later | 01:21 |

| Typos_King | tdnicholson: kvirc is a bit colorful, has avatars and stuff, you can also use pidgin or gaim for irc, there's also konversation, or quassel, as I said, I prefer xchat :) | 01:24 |
| Flannel | ryan__: Now, back to your issue. Have you tried asking in #winehq? (I certainly don't know enough about steam or wine to diagnose) | 01:24 |
| BentSpace | I see, so with an external hard drive multiple computers on the network can't be accessing it at the same time? | 01:24 |
| mah2223_ | hi guys! my ubuntu install got messed up somehow and i now have a "mount of root filesystem failed". does anyone know if there is a way to reinstall ubuntu without erasing all of my data? | 01:24 |
| ryan__ | Flannel, nope, but I 'll certainly have a look in there, thanks. | 01:24 |
| mkquist_ | Agu10: any luck? | 01:24 |
| dominicdinada | by default does the ufw send its firewall rules to iptables and if so when? | 01:24 |
| adamkex | mathieu: well windows always writes over the MBR, so i have to fix that with a live cd, but my fear is that if windows 7 formats the entire harddrive | 01:24 |

| adamkex | mah2223_: how did you solve your issue? | 01:32 |
| mah2223_ | adamkex: sorry for the confusion, my issue didnt get solved at all! i was simply responding to a question about whether i can mount my failing ubuntu partition from livecd | 01:33 |
| dominicdinada | well what the hell is this problem i tried to save my ufw firewall rules to the desktop... when saving ass shows all the files there but they are not on my desktop so i user natu... and ctrl+h and they are still not visable | 01:33 |
| BentSpace | mathieu, I was looking into get the WD My Book World Edition NAS as it was highly rated, but apparent to access your files remotely you have to go through WD's website, but I read it could be hacked to access the drive directly via SSH or FTP? Is this a good choice for a NAS is there sometime better for Linux users as it doesn't say it's Linux compatible on their website? | 01:33 |
| Typos_King | tdnicholson: kubuntu already comes with Quassel irc, I've used konversation, you may like kvirc over it, GUI wise http://lwn.net/images/ns/grumpy/irc/kvirc.png | 01:34 |
| Typos_King | mah2223: then just do so, do a live-cd boot, mount it, and back up ~/ | 01:34 |
| adamkex | mah2223_: in the future, you should keep a seperate /home partition | 01:35 |
| harjot | How do i get midi devices working with my laptop? | 01:35 |
| adamkex | mah2223_: so if you system fails, your personal files don't | 01:36 |
| mathieu | tdnicholson, xchat seems less 'technical' than kvirc by default... so if you don need join/parts and a constant list of users, xchat is nice :-) | 01:36 |
| Jordan_U | mah2223_: Have you tried booting with an older kernel version? | 01:36 |
| mah2223_ | Jordan_U: yes i have tried every one in my grub menu to no avail, thank you though! | 01:37 |
| mathieu | harjot: use a MIDI sequencer or whatever application which uses that musical interface | 01:37 |

| adamkex | mah2223_: he means to backup your home directory | 01:38 |
| dominicdinada | mah2223_: thats ur home dir | 01:38 |
| === Cain` is now known as Cain | ||
| Typos_King | mah2223: your $HOME folder :), or ~ | 01:38 |
| mah2223_ | thank you all, understood. is the implication then to just do a clean reinstall and then copy over the home folder? | 01:38 |
| Jordan_U | mah2223_: What repository did you get updates from? (I think the installer can install while keeping /home, even if it's not a separate partition, but I doubt that is necessary) | 01:39 |
| adamkex | mah2223_: yes | 01:39 |
| BentSpace | Is continuous backup better than scheduled backup? | 01:40 |
| mah2223_ | Jordan_U: unfortunately i am not sure what the repository was and i think there actually may have been more than one | 01:40 |

| mah2223_ | alright everyone, thank you very much for your help i will do a clean install and then copy over my home folder. does anyone know if my compiz profile is saved in home or should/can i get it from somewhere else?? | 01:42 |

| mathieu | Typos_King, thanks, that is probably exactly what I'm looking for. | 01:43 |
| Jordan_U | mah2223_: I'd say back up your /home but try to re-install without reformating the partition anyway. I think it will work. | 01:43 |
| soreau | mah2223_: ccsm>preferences>export/import to save and load, respectively | 01:44 |
| mah2223_ | Daekdroom: thank you | 01:44 |
| Typos_King | mathieu: and for minor file perusing I also use XFE -> http://roland65.free.fr/xfe/images/screenshot-s5.png , but mainly Krusader :) | 01:44 |
| Flannel | mathieu: in a terminal, there's mc (midnight commander), and graphically, lets look: gnome-commander, krusader, bsc, tuxcmd | 01:44 |
| Jordan_U | Charbel: empathy supports video chat IIRC | 01:44 |

| neezer | I have a media server with a bunch of music on it. I have changed the permissions on the /home/user/Music folder to 777....is that a problem? I just figured I'd run into fewer headaches with mediatomb with the permissions at 777. | 01:45 |

| youngblood | My network controller " Network controller [0280]: Broadcom Corporation BCM4312 802.11b/g [14e4:4315] (rev 01)" and I would like to completely remove the package and reinstall it. What is the package name? The driver for my wifi is b43. When i do a lsmod, the module is not in the list. when I do system > adm > hardware drive, I see Broadcom STA wireless enable. This was working, now nothing. | 01:45 |
| Flannel | mathieu: So, look into those, find the one that looks the best for what you need. krusader is for KDE, so if you're using Ubuntu, I'd stay away from that if other things offer the same features | 01:45 |
| Typos_King | hehe | 01:45 |
| mah2223_ | Jordan_U: thank you. this re-install idea is what i originally had in mind but i am not sure how to do it! | 01:45 |

| ubottu | Help with Broadcom bcm43xx can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx | 01:46 |
| mathieu | wow, that is a heavy package... 108 dependencies needed according to Synaptic :-) | 01:46 |
| Typos_King | krusader uses kde libs, doesn't require kde4 to be installed last I checked, anymore than gnome apps require a full gnome installation, just a few libs | 01:46 |
| Charbel | Jordan_U, i don't have irc in empathy | 01:46 |
| Flannel | Typos_King: Right, kdelibs, kdebase, and QT stuff | 01:46 |
| Typos_King | mathieu: yes, if you don't have kde installed, it'll require quite a few kde libs | 01:47 |
| Charbel | Jordan_U, from jordan ? | 01:47 |
| Jordan_U | mah2223_: Choose manual partitioning, select your current Ubuntu partition to be used as '/' and be sure to uncheck the box that says to reformat the partition | 01:47 |
| Flannel | mathieu: Pick one of the others and try it out, that aren't KDE based, it'll be less overhead | 01:47 |
| |dominicdinada| | hmm | 01:47 |
| Jordan_U | Charbel: IIRC means If I Recall Correctly | 01:48 |

| Flannel | Charbel: pidgin supports Yahoo | 01:56 |
| IdleOne | Charbel: there is no native Yahoo client for linux. use Pidgin or Empathy | 01:56 |
| Gozar | BalSak: Yeah, but I was thinking instead of the big ones that Microsoft, Yahoo, Skype, etc have, where they can basically change whenever they like and basically stop "us" from using them.. | 01:56 |
| Charbel | i know i can use pidgin or empathy but i thought i can install yahoo client | 01:57 |
| Charbel | thank you guys | 01:57 |
| IdleOne | Gozar: actually no they can't | 01:57 |
| Daekdroom | Gozar: They wouldn't try that. It would stop their own older clients from working and they'd lose popularity. | 01:57 |
| BalSak | Gozar: not really; they'll have to contend with legacy systems (IE6 is still alive & kicking) | 01:57 |
| Gozar | IdleOne: No? Well, show me a working MSN-client with proper functional webcam support.. | 01:58 |
| BalSak | & the FLOSS comulity will adapt quicker to any new protocol than their legacy clients woud | 01:58 |
| Daekdroom | Gozar: That's the MSN-client's fault, not MS | 01:58 |
| SwedeMike | Gozar: amsn works with webcam for me. | 01:58 |
| Gozar | Daekdroom: But who changes the protocols? | 01:58 |
| SwedeMike | Gozar: or, it worked up until a few days ago anyway. | 01:59 |
| Gozar | SwedeMike: Yeah, but it's not proper.. | 01:59 |
| Daekdroom | Gozar: The service owner (Microsoft for MSN, Yahoo for Yahoo etc) | 01:59 |
| SwedeMike | Gozar: but I think that was a network problem. What are you lacking? | 01:59 |

| Kuwanger | How viable would it be to boot from an Ubuntu 8.04 disc to install Xubuntu 10.04 iso from a usb drive? | 02:00 |
| SwedeMike | Kuwanger: doesn't work to boot from usb on your computer? | 02:00 |
| Gozar | SwedeMike: Well, I'm only asking what to use instead of those protocols controlled by the big companies. But anyway, in relation to aMSN, I'm waiting for KMess 2.1 with proper webcam support. | 02:00 |
| IdleOne | Kuwanger: boot from the USB to install | 02:01 |
| aperson | can anyone point me to a guide to netboot ubuntu, I don't want to install it, I just want to be able to run ubuntu on a computer with no, or minimal media. I also would like the environment to be able to save changes (ie: updates) | 02:01 |
| SwedeMike | Gozar: please define "proper". | 02:01 |
| Kuwanger | SwedeMike: My BIOS includes USB-FDD, USB-ZIP, and USB-CDROM which all seem to fail. | 02:01 |

| Gozar | SwedeMike: Just done the "right way" instead of hacks and stuff like that. Ask the devs in #kmess | 02:03 |
| Kuwanger | SwedeMike: If I were to dump the iso onto a usb drive, shouldn't I be able to just supply the right vmlinuz and initrd at boot time to get it to install from usb? | 02:03 |
| aperson | wildbat, I do not want to install, that would run a non-persistent live environment | 02:03 |
| zetheroo | sebsebseb: I installed kubuntu-desktop on my Ubuntu system (Lucid) and now when I shutdown I get the kubuntu splash | 02:03 |
| sebsebseb | zetheroo: ah right ok | 02:03 |
| sebsebseb | zetheroo: open up synaptic, remove Kubuntu theme | 02:03 |
| SwedeMike | Kuwanger: perhaps, why don't you just try? | 02:03 |
| zetheroo | sebsebseb: I would like to change it back | 02:03 |
| sebsebseb | zetheroo: in fact there are a few other plymouth themes you can try | 02:04 |
| zetheroo | sebsebseb: the only way is to remove the theme? ... | 02:04 |
| sebsebseb | zetheroo: as well | 02:04 |
| sebsebseb | zetheroo: there may be another way to do it, but working the kubuntu theme is the way I would do it | 02:04 |
| gogeta | :P | 02:04 |
| sebsebseb | zetheroo: working? uh? removing | 02:04 |
| wildbat | aperson, till have instrustion on how to do netboot | 02:04 |
| zetheroo | sebsebseb: hehe :) | 02:04 |
| SwedeMike | Kuwanger: worst case, install 8.04 and then upgrade to 10.04 ? | 02:04 |
| gogeta | SwedeMike: why just install lucid | 02:05 |
| SwedeMike | gogeta: why don't you scrollback? | 02:05 |
| zetheroo | sebsebseb: ok ... and is that the name of the package? kubuntu-theme? | 02:05 |
| aperson | sebsebseb, I've had mixed experiences with the alternative plymouth themes in the repos, some won't work, at least on my hardware | 02:05 |
| gogeta | SwedeMike: just joind so i probly missewd it | 02:05 |
| sebsebseb | zetheroo: no kubuntu-plymouth-theme or something like that, you can find in Synaptic | 02:05 |
| Kuwanger | SwedeMike: Yea. I just figured I'd ask first, seeing if anyone had personal experience. | 02:05 |
| aperson | wildbat, yes, I know how to install from over the network, and I've read that guide a few times previously | 02:05 |
| aperson | wildbat, but it does not cover what I'd like to do | 02:06 |
| zetheroo | sebsebseb: ok I see plymouth-theme-kubuntu-logo ... | 02:06 |
| gogeta | SwedeMike: so why | 02:06 |
| sebsebseb | aperson: yeah one frooze the other computer | 02:06 |
| sebsebseb | zetheroo: yep that one | 02:06 |
| SwedeMike | gogeta: why what? | 02:06 |
| gogeta | SwedeMike: do all that rather then just installing | 02:06 |
| SwedeMike | gogeta: because he doesn't have a bootable 10.04 media | 02:06 |
| gogeta | SwedeMike: so make one | 02:06 |
| aperson | sebsebseb, it's a shame, I'd rather use the spinfinity theme :/ | 02:07 |
| SwedeMike | gogeta: why are you bugging ME about this? | 02:07 |
| mah2223_ | Jordan_U: still around?? :-) | 02:07 |
| Daekdroom | Lol | 02:07 |
| wildbat | aperson, you need to make your own initrd for customizing what you need | 02:07 |
| greezmunkey | aperson: Are you talking about this?:http://www.reallylinux.com/docs/setupltsp.shtml | 02:07 |
| zetheroo | sebsebseb: one other thing you may know something about ... when I boot up I see a black screen for the longest time and then a few seconds of the Ubuntu screen sometimes .. and then the login screen ... any idea why the black screen? | 02:07 |
| sebsebseb | aperson: that's the one I had issues with, if I remember correctly | 02:07 |
| sebsebseb | zetheroo: yes I have that on other computer as well, it's a known issue, there will be links out there about that, I think | 02:08 |
| Gozar | Daekdroom: Anyway, the point was that instead of relying on big companies to be able to chat and webcam and all that, and then when they decide to change things around, without providing docs for the devs, then we'll be b0nkered til it's been reverse-engineered again. And it has happened before, they have done it, and why rely on them? So I was asking about the "F/OSS" variant of IM. But anyway, I think you know this already | 02:08 |
| Gozar | . But better to point it out one time too many than never. | 02:08 |
| gogeta | Kuwanger: so why dont you have a lucid disk there easy to get | 02:08 |
| Kuwanger | gogeta: Takes a while to ship. :) | 02:08 |
| zetheroo | sebsebseb: is there a fix, or not yet? | 02:08 |
| SwedeMike | Gozar: jabber is the FOSS/IETF answer. | 02:08 |
| gogeta | Kuwanger: that it does | 02:08 |
| mah2223_ | my savior is gone :-( | 02:08 |
| sebsebseb | zetheroo: aperson Plymouth doesn't really work properly in Ubuntu. Plus those of us that have a Nivida or ATI propritary driver, Plymouth will really mess up on us if it's using that driver. I haven't tried yet, but I was given a link about how I could get it using open driver for plymouth, and propritary for everything else. | 02:08 |

| aperson | sebsebseb, proprietary nvidia driver here, the normal plymouth theme works fine, all I had to do is set the resolution myself | 02:09 |
| sebsebseb | onetinsoldier: I seen that link before, is that the fix for the black issue? | 02:09 |
| aperson | greezmunkey, that would be about right | 02:10 |
| onetinsoldier | sebsebseb: the black issue? no.. not for that it doesn't sound like | 02:10 |
| Gozar | SwedeMike: Oh nice, did not know about IETF. Seems like I've been in a cave. I'll be reading up on that. | 02:10 |
| onetinsoldier | sebsebseb: it's the fix for people with proprietary nvida/ati drivers | 02:10 |
| mathieu | anyone tried to successfully upgrade the Mono framework in Lucid Ubuntu to version 2.6.4 ? | 02:10 |
| greezmunkey | aperson: I'm pretty sure that will do what you want. | 02:10 |
| sebsebseb | onetinsoldier: oh ok | 02:10 |
| zetheroo | sebsebseb: well I was not having any real issues with the theme .. just that it sorta spread out here and there ... :) Like my mouse cursor is no the oxygen one and I cannot change it at all .. :P ... no big deal that ... | 02:10 |
| sebsebseb | onetinsoldier: altough I was given some other link for that | 02:11 |

| onetinsoldier | sebsebseb: oh. roger. i use the fglrx drivers and i used that guide. worked a treat for me. really nice | 02:11 |
| aperson | greezmunkey, but wouldn't everything be running on the server, and not the client? | 02:11 |
| mah2223_ | so my ubuntu install got messed up and now gives "mount of root filesystem failed". However, i can see all of my old files and stuff from livecd and have backed them all up.

| greezmunkey | aperson: I'd have to look into more. I came across ltsp a while ago, but lost interest in it. | 02:12 |
| sebsebseb | CkhiKuzad: maybe | 02:12 |
| sebsebseb | CkhiKuzad: backup data or something, and try I guess. Ext3 9.04 installs won't get converted to Ext4 on upgrade, but you don't need that anyway. Plus no Grub 2 on upgrade, but for most of us the old Grub is still better :) | 02:13 |
| aperson | greezmunkey, my media center's hdd is dying, and since all my media is accessed via sshfs anyways, I want to see if I can't just run boot from over the network, to sum things up | 02:14 |

| moekim1234 | hi every1 need some help. just bought a samsung r530 and i just installed ubuntu 9.04 but there seems to be a network problem cos neither the wireless nor the ethernet is working any help would be much appreciated???? | 02:14 |
| aperson | greezmunkey, wildbat, thanks for your suggestions | 02:14 |
| SwedeMike | moekim1234: why are you installing 9.04 ? | 02:14 |
| sebsebseb | CkhiKuzad: oh and 9.04 runs out of support at the end of October, however it's better than 9.10 and 10.04 in certain ways | 02:14 |

| aperson | thisb, I like geany, but you can't really call that an ide | 02:15 |
| thisb | i used notepad++ heavily along with the filebrowser plugin | 02:15 |
| thisb | gedit doesnt do it for me | 02:15 |
| rangua | hello. i've just installed lucid and was wondering if anyone else experienced a really slow synaptic (not download speed.. every time i click something it turns gray and i have to wait 10-15 seconds to react again). any kind of help is appreciated | 02:16 |
| mah2223_ | so my ubuntu install got messed up and now gives "mount of root filesystem failed". However, i can see all of my old files and stuff from livecd and have backed them all up. I'm not really sure about the "choose a partition manually" part of the installer and i'm wondering if anyone knows how to get it to see my old account in order to migrate my old settings and stuff like that?? any help GREATLY appreciated i love you guys | 02:16 |
| aperson | thisb, so you're looking for a good editor, not a full on ide like eclipse? | 02:16 |
| thisb | eclipse,netbeans there all slow bundles of crap imho | 02:16 |
| sebsebseb | zetheroo: not gone on link yet, but I expect I am not really the best person to help with this. if you see actionparnsnip around though, well he seems to know Plymouth issues | 02:16 |
| aperson | thisb, then I definitely recommend geany | 02:16 |

| s34nDROID | does 10.04 64-bit support the Saffire Le firewire audio interface? Because mine isn't working for crap!@ | 02:17 |
| SwedeMike | moekim1234: unlikely anyone will help you with an old ubuntu release like that when it's most likely fixed in a later release. | 02:17 |
| thisb | i like it to a degree | 02:17 |
| ConfusedGirl | serious... | 02:17 |
| zetheroo | sebsebseb: oh ok .. but this does not have to do with kubuntu or plymouth ... I was having this issue with Ubuntu before adding Kubuntu to the mix ... :) | 02:17 |
| Gozar | thisb: I prefer Kate, for KDE. But what about Emacs or vi/m? ;) | 02:17 |
| thisb | vim ftw | 02:18 |
| Gozar | s34nDROID: I have the same question. Just got a Saffire LE the other day. | 02:18 |
| moekim1234 | swedemike: i was hoping to update as soon as i installed | 02:18 |
| sebsebseb | zetheroo: well sure, since Kubuntu is Ubuntu just with KDE instead | 02:18 |
| thisb | i bet i will like it more after i mess with it | 02:18 |
| IdleOne | Please no editor debates/wars. Take it to #ubuntu-offtopic | 02:18 |
| thisb | ^i like all editors | 02:18 |
| s34nDROID | Gozar, so far all I have seen is stuff about ffado which is supposedly supported in 10.04? | 02:18 |
| thisb | depending on my mood : | 02:18 |
| SwedeMike | moekim1234: that seems to be not working, so the advice is to do a fresh install of 10.04 instead. | 02:18 |
| Schmitty | yeah it's all about nano anyway. deabte over | 02:19 |
| thisb | cool i like it | 02:19 |
| mah2223_ | rangua: hello kind sir and thank you. how can i get you my grub conf file? | 02:19 |
| thisb | i use nano for conf files and stuff | 02:19 |
| s34nDROID | I use my LE as my main audio device so it's a must to have working | 02:19 |
| zetheroo | sebsebseb: right ... I was just wondering if my entry should be something like "i965" instead of the "i915" on the post ... this is Intel btw .. | 02:19 |
| Gozar | s34nDROID: Yeah, ffado is surely what we should use.. but I've had no success yet. (not tried all that much though) | 02:19 |
| moekim1234 | swedemike: its much easier to install an old ubuntu and then hit the upgrade. but yes i might have to do that. thanks heaps | 02:19 |
| luis_ | anybody have any idea on how to fix the brightness button fix for lenovo machines, i have tried the fix from 9.10 but that isnt working | 02:19 |
| s34nDROID | I couldn't understand how to install it | 02:19 |
| rangua | >.< i hate my windows user lab partner who messed up the latex file.. i can't compile and i would install every single tex package out there.. but then again, for each one i select i have to wait 10-15 secs for synaptic to revive so that's out of the question... grrrrr.. i can still blame it on windows hehe | 02:20 |
| s34nDROID | half the depenencies I couldn't find | 02:20 |
| SwedeMike | luis_: what fix is that? brightness adjustment works on my x200 | 02:20 |
| Gozar | s34nDROID: Isn't it in the repositories? | 02:20 |
| Schmitty | what make ubuntu hardy a "hardy" version. What happens if you install hardy and then update your kernel? Are you running hardy anymore? | 02:20 |
| aperson | rangua, so are you asking for help or just venting? if the latter, please take it to #ubuntu-offtopic | 02:20 |
| s34nDROID | I couldn't find it | 02:20 |
| s34nDROID | maybe I need to add a repo | 02:20 |
| s34nDROID | they had a package with JACK bit I couldn't get it to work | 02:21 |
| SwedeMike | Schmitty: hardy is the whole set of utils etc, where the kernel is a small but important part. some people upgrade kernel and yes, they're still running hardy then. | 02:21 |
| mathieu | what about terminal apt-get | 02:21 |
| mah2223_ | I'm not really sure about the "choose a partition manually" part of the installer and i'm wondering if anyone knows how to get it to see my old account in order to migrate my old settings and stuff like that?? any help GREATLY appreciated thank you!! | 02:21 |
| aperson | mathieu, what about it? | 02:21 |
| Schmitty | SwedeMike: what set of utilities is specific to the respective ubuntu version? | 02:22 |
| st | Schmitty, it's also outdated libc and other funny stuff | 02:22 |
| rangua | aperson: asking for help... the synaptic lag issue... it's a tricky problem tho, just wondering if anyone else had this issue | 02:22 |
| wildbat | \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ | 02:22 |
| SwedeMike | Schmitty: all of it, most of the utils get newer versions when upgrading. | 02:22 |
| luis_ | SwedeMike:/etc/default/grub | 02:22 |

| Jordan_U | mah2223_: I'm back | 02:26 |
| aperson | quick question: is sata hot-pluggable? I don't want to nuke anything plugging in a drive | 02:26 |
| rangua | :/ .. has synaptic changed much in the last upgrade? like, making some queries over the net or something.. | 02:26 |
| SwedeMike | aperson: yes it is. | 02:26 |
| chrismsnz | hey guys, quick question - what's the recommended desktop virtualisation solution on 10.04? kvm w/frontend? virtualbox? vmware? | 02:26 |
| SwedeMike | chrismsnz: vbox is most commonly recommended here. | 02:27 |
| chrismsnz | want to run a windows instance and a couple of other linux instances too | 02:27 |
| Jordan_U | mah2223_: What aren't you sure about exactly? | 02:27 |
| aperson | rangua, in my experience, any lagging experiences is on the user's net connection, proxy, or the repository. not on synaptic | 02:27 |
| aperson | SwedeMike, thanks | 02:27 |
| Daekdroom | chrismsnz, KVM w/ frontend gives the best performance, apparently, but virtualbox is the easiest one. | 02:27 |
| acicula | chrismsnz, kvm-qemu or vbox | 02:27 |
| root_ | hi | 02:28 |
| chrismsnz | i think i'd prefer to use kvm - we use it at work for server virt so i can use it OK... which frontend to use? | 02:28 |
| chrismsnz | just virt-manager? | 02:28 |
| st | rangua, synaptic is bloated python abomination | 02:28 |
| mah2223_ | st: kind and generous wiseman! when i select my existing ext4 partition, it says 'no root filesystem defined'. and then on a lower line, it says 'Please correct this from the partitioning menu.' !! | 02:28 |
| CkhiKuzad | is it possible to add GRUB2 to my GRUB menu, so i can optionally use one or the other? | 02:28 |
| rangua | i see.. but i get the lag when i mark any package (before installing or downloading. just marking it).. i didn't had this problem before, so i was thinking maybe synaptic is relying more on network now | 02:28 |
| acicula | libvirt , virt-manager frontends that | 02:28 |
| IdleOne | aperson: I don't think you are understanding his issue. what is going on with him is that Synaptic stops responding for 10-15 seconds every time he performs and action | 02:28 |
| st | mah2223_, select 'Use drive as ext4' and '/' mount point | 02:28 |
| shishire | Is it possible to have both gnome and kde installed on a system, and use the menu on the login screen to select between them? | 02:29 |
| brianherman_home | How do I report a bug if the bug system crashes? | 02:29 |

| Daekdroom | Won't kubuntu-desktop change GDM and boot screen aswell? | 02:30 |
| CkhiKuzad | shishire, GDM supports multi window managers by default. install kubuntu-desktop. once you have the option to use gdm or kdm, choose any of the two, both allow you two switch between the two from the sessions dialog on your login screen. | 02:30 |
| aperson | shishire, after that, all it is is a matter of logging out and selecting which you want to use | 02:30 |

| DIL | swing low | 02:33 |
| Jordan_U | CkhiKuzad: Why not just use grub2? | 02:33 |
| acicula | CkhiKuzad, you can chainload another disk wich holds another bootloader | 02:33 |
| mah2223_ | st: unfortunately it still cannot see my old account but I guess that's why i am in this situation in the first place right :-P | 02:33 |
| CkhiKuzad | Jordan_U, its messing around with changing my bootloader, i dont want to do that, because i might seriously fork up my computer. | 02:34 |

| Fudge | remastersys is very nice | 02:34 |
| Jordan_U | CkhiKuzad: When you upgrade from grub legacy to grub2 it actually offers you to have a setup where grub legacy loads grub2 to be sure that grub2 works before doing the full upgrade. | 02:34 |
| SwedeMike | zhane: /etc/init.d/ | 02:35 |
| CkhiKuzad | Jordan_U how can i do this upgrade? | 02:35 |

| st | mah2223_, try -40 | 02:48 |
| zetheroo | cna i remove HAL now that I upgraded to Lucid? | 02:48 |
| st | type first letters and press tab | 02:49 |
| Avocadobride | Jordan_U: yeah I did, thanks, I think it was because was because I installed windows with another drive plugged in, and it decided to put BOOTMGR on that, because when that drive was plugged in it booted into windows without any warning and bypassed grub, so the windows repair disk did the trick | 02:49 |
| mah2223_ | st: very long output! | 02:49 |
| BKTech86 | John, I've played these mp3s before, they work. I completely removed pulseaudio, would that cause this? | 02:49 |
| Avocadobride | Jordan_U: #ubuntu, helped fix a problem with windows XD sorry and thankyou | 02:50 |
| mah2223_ | i am on another computer, is there an IRC client on the live install? | 02:50 |
| st | mah2223_, see for anything pertaining to installation | 02:50 |
| Jordan_U | When you include anyone's nick in your message it will be highlighted in their client. You can include any number of nicks and they can be anywhere in the message, like this mah2223_ . | 02:50 |
| John | yes that would cuase a problem | 02:50 |
| Avocadobride | Jordan_U: So how do I get it to show grub for 10 seconds even when It doesnt want to | 02:50 |
| BKTech86 | ok | 02:50 |
| John | try going to youtube and playing a video and seeing if you get audio from that | 02:50 |
| BKTech86 | i do | 02:50 |
| BKTech86 | just did that | 02:50 |

| CkhiKuzad | i thought i had to go to chainload into grub 2, and it kept giving me the error 11. but i edited it, then did the boot. | 02:51 |

| Avocadobride | Jordan_U: actually I think I will keep it this way, it should make it harder for people to use my computer without permission | 02:52 |
| Jordan_U | Avocadobride: Strange, I assume "sudo os-prober" produces no output? | 02:52 |
| nixjr | red2kic, thanks, found it in /usr/bin :) | 02:53 |
| Avocadobride | Jordan_U: oh hay, it does now XD | 02:53 |
| Avocadobride | Jordan_U: so it should work if I just run sudo update-grub? | 02:53 |
| Jordan_U | Avocadobride: Yes | 02:53 |

| silverboy0213 | hello all | 02:57 |
| zetheroo | do I need HAL in Lucid? | 02:57 |
| silverboy0213 | Im having some trouble | 02:57 |
| CkhiKuzad | I just did upgrade-from-grub-legacy and this is the result: http://paste.ubuntu.com/434132/ did something go wrong? it says no errors, yet i see about a dozen. | 02:57 |
| Jordan_U | zetheroo: No | 02:57 |
| silverboy0213 | with my flash | 02:57 |
| traskmind | Petskull, it's *technically* mounted always, I believe, but it just takes a while to initialise if I haven't used it in a while. Would mounting it as permanent fix that? If so, how would I go about that, /etc/fstab? | 02:57 |
| zetheroo | Jordan_U: can I remove it now that I upgraded? | 02:57 |
| Petskull | honestly, I don't know | 02:58 |
| haavaros | acerimmer: Not that I can see in GParted, at least | 02:58 |
| Avocadobride | silverboy0213: just ask in one big sentence, so it doesnt clog up the channel | 02:58 |

| st | nixjr, if you want to get absolutepatch for command, use 'wgich' | 02:58 |
| Jordan_U | zetheroo: Most likely, yes. Make sure that "sudo apt-get remove hal" doesn't remove any applications that you want that may still depend on it though | 02:58 |
| silverboy0213 | Anyone know why the commands on youtube isnt working\ | 02:58 |
| Petskull | I have "PetTV" with a lot of movies and shows on random HDMI to my tv on a dedicated laptop | 02:59 |
| zetheroo | Jordan_U: ok good point | 02:59 |
| Petskull | I have everything on a usb | 02:59 |
| Avocadobride | silverboy0213: because flash on linux is crappy | 02:59 |
| haavaros | acerimmer: But Windows install made an unallocated 1MB space at the beginning of the disk, does that matter? | 02:59 |
| silverboy0213 | anyway to fix it | 02:59 |
| Avocadobride | silverboy0213: your going to have lots of trouble with online games youtube, anything with flash | 02:59 |
| Petskull | yeah, it laggs sometimes when I'm oppening it | 02:59 |

| mah223LIVE | !! | 03:00 |
| silverboy0213 | so i ether deal with a crappy os | 03:00 |
| silverboy0213 | and flash | 03:00 |
| IdleOne | silverboy0213: how did you install flash? | 03:01 |
| acerimmer | haavaros: this is win7's "restore" partition and u COULD delete it but u have to have your win7 dvd's on hand | 03:01 |
| mah223LIVE | st i have followed your instructions and have a very large output from your command | 03:01 |
| silverboy0213 | with a sudo command | 03:01 |
| Avocadobride | silverboy0213: there might be a youtube specific app that you cfan get | 03:01 |
| acerimmer | haavaros: i'm guess u don't. | 03:01 |
| zetheroo | Jordan_U: when I try to remove hal it wants to take banshee, gnome-mount, kubuntu-desktop and gnome-volume-manager with it ... :( | 03:01 |
| acerimmer | haavaros: go private. | 03:01 |
| Jordan_U | CkhiKuzad: Those errors can be ignored. The problem is that /boot/grub/device.map contains /dev/sdd which is not currently plugged in (or the device name has changed). grub2 doesn't require a device.map anymore so if you want to get rid of those (harmless) errors you can "sudo rm /boot/grub/device.map" | 03:01 |
| IdleOne | silverboy0213: ok, more specifically what command did you use to install flash? | 03:01 |
| silverboy0213 | where whould this app be found | 03:01 |
| mah223LIVE | are these getting through? | 03:01 |
| mah2223_ | oh yeah i can see them! | 03:02 |

| Tatsel | Howdy \o/ I'm back after a ong time :p | 03:09 |
| trism | Evolution: System/Preferences/Keyboard/Accessibility tab, uncheck accessibility features can be toggled with keyboard shortcuts | 03:09 |
| mah223LIVE | how can i get that for you st?? | 03:09 |
| Tatsel | Toucan: :) | 03:09 |
| CkhiKuzad | R0b0t1: you need to be more specific, try configuring it yourself, and report any errors here, and ask for help with them. | 03:09 |
| CkhiKuzad | or ask what you use to configure it | 03:09 |
| Toucan | Oh, Fozo, I also previously had ubuntu 9.10 on my computer, I went to upgrade it, then the new version didn't work, it gave me that screwed up screen | 03:09 |
| Toucan | screens* | 03:09 |
| st | mah223LIVE, do the dmesg | tail in terminal on that machine and pastebin it | 03:09 |
| Evolution | trism: excellent. that got rid of one... | 03:10 |
| youngblood | Is this package still valid, "bcmwl-kernel-source"? | 03:10 |
| R0b0t1 | CkhiKuzad: Ok, I have. I'm starting to think it thinks it has a valid driver but doesn't, as I input my key, and set the WEP index to 2, as my router is on channel 2. | 03:10 |
| R0b0t1 | It doesn't connect. | 03:10 |
| trism | Evolution: logging out and back in should get rid of the other (may need to uncheck it again in the keyboard preferences) | 03:10 |
| Evolution | trism: doing so now. thanks | 03:10 |
| mah223LIVE | st yes sir simply instruct me how to use pastebin please? | 03:10 |
| R0b0t1 | CkhiKuzad: Actually, nm. Where do I find the driver? :) | 03:10 |
| Duff_ffuD | why i can run rake --options but sudo rake options not? why sudo doesnt recognize it? | 03:11 |

| jkusun | hello | 03:12 |
| CkhiKuzad | http://paste.ubuntu.com/434134/ < is that in the right format to boot a loopback in grub2? its in my 40_custom file. | 03:12 |
| GeekSquid | R0b0t1: the index has nothing to do with the channel, ... you are using WEP? totally not secure... channel selection is automatic, index is 1-4 based on the key used, key1 = index1 etc... | 03:12 |

| coz_ | nips, are you at text console now? | 03:47 |
| wildbat | green_scorpion, hmmm you are right, check with the $path | 03:47 |
| nips | no I'm in windows | 03:47 |
| shayisaac | the site that i refer needs me to go to synaptic first | 03:47 |
| nips | Grub doesn't help either | 03:47 |
| acerimmer | GothSpark: u overstate it. bcz wubi is still under windows control all the windows faults we know can destabilize your wubi - doesn't happen like that with a reuglar dual boot | 03:47 |
| shayisaac | then ctinue with sumthing bout medibuntu | 03:47 |
| ConfusedGirl | Hello ubuntu ppl. Write to me if you'e bored, but not boring | 03:47 |
| coz_ | nips, ok do you still have the install cd? | 03:47 |
| shayisaac | i;m still noob - sorry | 03:47 |
| nips | Blackbyte told me to add "vga=791" to I don't know where D: and it didn't work | 03:47 |
| nips | it's an iso that wubi downloaded | 03:47 |
| green_scorpion | wildbat: i checked it already... it is alright | 03:47 |
| acerimmer | shayisaac: let's try again. 404 error is a internet connect error right? | 03:47 |
| kraig6412 | if you hold down shift when you restart and hit f6 deleate quite and splash you can get in to the gnome and install the recomended driver for computer if you have nvidea | 03:48 |
| venessa | I have been there and no drivers are listed. If I run ifconfig all it shows are the wired ethernet and the loopback, this thing was working great before upgrade. | 03:48 |
| elbing1 | how do you add something to the applications menu? I manually installed an application and made a launcher for it. | 03:48 |
| coz_ | nips, is it possible ...in windows... for you to download and burn the install cd for lucid? | 03:48 |
| shayisaac | emm | 03:48 |
| shayisaac | but from what i know | 03:48 |
| kraig6412 | *****after deleating quite and splash type "nomodeset" | 03:48 |
| shayisaac | 404 is refering to the site server | 03:48 |
| acerimmer | shayisaac: according to my check skype is up. | 03:48 |
| nips | I don't have a cd :c | 03:48 |
| wildbat | green_scorpion, can you sudo head the file? see if root can read it ? | 03:48 |
| coz_ | nips, ah I see | 03:49 |
| nixjr | how do i make it so instead of typing "sudo hddtemp" i can just type "hddtemp" ? | 03:49 |
| shayisaac | emm | 03:49 |
| acerimmer | shayisaac: google for skype for linux. | 03:49 |
| nips | kraig6412: when do I do that ctrl f6 thing? | 03:49 |
| shayisaac | any way that you can recommend to me? | 03:49 |
| BlackByte | nips try a live kunbuntu first to see if it picks up your card | 03:49 |
| shayisaac | i already did | 03:49 |
| coz_ | nips, well in all honesty I never reccomend upgrading andy OS always clean install...do you know someone who can burn the live cd for you? | 03:49 |
| elbing1 | nvm fixed it | 03:49 |
| borja_ | alguna española | 03:49 |
| shayisaac | i already download the deb files | 03:49 |
| onetinsoldier | nixjr: sudo -i | 03:49 |

| shayisaac | the skype-ubuntu-intrepid files | 03:49 |
| maco | !es | borja_ | 03:49 |
| shayisaac | emm | 03:49 |

| kraig6412 | restart your computer and hold shift while it starts up it will bring your to a console to chose generic or recovery and hit the letter e deleate the words quite and splash and type nomodeset and hit ctr +x and finish installing it in gnome | 03:50 |

| acerimmer | dan: u there | 03:51 |
| onetinsoldier | silverboy0213: what is it? | 03:51 |
| ubottu | borja_: En la mayoría de canales de Ubuntu se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español o charlar entra en el canal #ubuntu-es. Escribe "/join #ubuntu-es" (sin comillas) y dale a enter. | 03:51 |
| shayisaac | i already log in as root | 03:51 |

| green_scorpion | wildbat: he doesnt accept the option that come along with the rake command, that runs well without sudo | 03:52 |
| shayisaac | i'm the only user | 03:52 |
| kraig6412 | but thats only if you have a nvidea driver had to do it with lucid | 03:52 |

| nixjr | onetinsoldier, i need to remove the need to be root to run the command so i can call it from a script im writing | 03:53 |
| Jordan_U | !iso | CkhiKuzad | 03:53 |
| ubottu | CkhiKuzad: To mount an ISO disc image, type « sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint> » - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning. | 03:53 |
| dan | ace: yep. | 03:53 |
| shayisaac | hohohohooh | 03:53 |

| Jordan_U | CkhiKuzad: You're welcome. | 03:54 |
| wildbat | green_scorpion, try : /usr/local/lib/jruby-1.5.0.RC3/bin/rake redis:install dtach:install | 03:54 |
| acerimmer | shayisaac: might need to restart | 03:54 |
| wildbat | green_scorpion, try : sudo /usr/local/lib/jruby-1.5.0.RC3/bin/rake redis:install dtach:install | 03:54 |
| green_scorpion | wildbat: /usr/bin/env: jruby: No such file or directory | 03:54 |
| dan | ace: no prob. i just didn't understand "dual boot required u to think before u click". however, i'm just gonna go install dual boot and be happy. thx. | 03:54 |
| dan | later | 03:54 |
| acerimmer | Dan: you found a good dual boot tutorial? | 03:55 |

| shayisaac | <zas!> | 03:55 |
| nips | Yes I do but when I chose copy disc it wants a cdr | 03:56 |
| oh_noes | I have a single disk. I had Windows installed. and left 100GB free on the disk to install Ubuntu 10.04 onto. The install went fine, I told to "Install into continuous free space" | 03:56 |
| Motilon | need help w/wireless connection not working | 03:56 |
| nips | not a dvdr | 03:56 |
| wildbat | green_scorpion, that's in your ruby script | 03:56 |
| oh_noes | howvwer now it still boots straight to windows | 03:56 |
| oh_noes | why didnt it install into the MBR? | 03:56 |
| acerimmer | oh_noes: where did u choose to install grub? | 03:56 |
| rangua | sorry guys, i have a quick question... when i chroot from the livecd to the hard drive (i'm trying to reinstall grub), how do i set the enviroment variables? | 03:56 |
| Jordan_U | oh_noes: Do you have more than one hard drive? | 03:56 |
| BlackByte | nips tell nero you want to burn a dvd | 03:57 |
| Fozo | my gparted is empty no drives can open in the live cd is this an issue? | 03:57 |
| nips | Should I copy paste the iso's files over to the new dvdr? | 03:57 |
| oh_noes | No, single HDD. Multiple partitions | 03:57 |
| onetinsoldier | silverboy0213: ok, i take it you have downloaded it. you need to unpack it. then go into the directory where you unpacked it, in a terminal, on the command line | 03:57 |
| BlackByte | nips do NOT copy! | 03:57 |
| Jordan_U | rangua: You don't need to set any environment variables to re-install grub. | 03:57 |
| nixjr | onetinsoldier, i found the answer no thanks: sudo chmod u+s /usr/sbin/hddtemp | 03:57 |
| Jordan_U | !grub2 | rangua | 03:57 |
| ubottu | rangua: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 | 03:57 |
| nips | okay don't yell at me :c | 03:57 |
| acerimmer | oh_noes: not more than 4 primary partitions, right? otherwise mbr gets funky | 03:57 |
| ScarabDrowner | screensaver is deactivated, power management is set to *never* turn off the monitor, yet the screen goes black after 10 minutes of inactivity: http://www.flickr.com/photos/43227559@N06/4610055273/ | 03:57 |
| oh_noes | essentially windows 7 boot loader, sda1 windows 7 = sda2, then free space which is probably sda2 | 03:57 |
| nips | i'm using poweriso | 03:58 |
| kraig6412 | hey someone i need noob help im trying to burn a .avi to a dvd | 03:58 |
| nips | i hope that works now | 03:58 |
| acerimmer | oh_noes and the hidden win7 part?? | 03:58 |
| nips | my last dvdr D: | 03:58 |
| oh_noes | acerimmer: dont think so. literally I had windows 7 isntalled with 2 partitions. Then I told ubuntu to use "free space" | 03:58 |
| maco | nixjr: if something's not setuid to start with, changing it *to* setuid is probably a bad plan | 03:58 |
| acerimmer | oh_noes: ok. So where did u send grub? | 03:58 |
| koshka888 | hello | 03:58 |
| BlackByte | nips so look for burn iso option | 03:58 |
| nips | it's burning as of now | 03:58 |
| onetinsoldier | nixjr: sorry... i thought i had answered your question. some family came home and i got busy here for a bit | 03:58 |
| koshka888 | what about imgburn? isn't that open source? | 03:58 |
| Motilon | good evening guys: need help w/wireless connection not working | 03:58 |
| maco | nixjr: because any memory management bug in it *automatically* becomes a potential vector for root escalation | 03:58 |
| maco | nixjr: what you /should/ do is run it with sudo | 03:59 |
| oh_noes | acerimmer: It didnt ask me ... I figured it would have handled all of that | 03:59 |
| jedix | Jordan_U: any ideas? | 03:59 |
| silverboy0213 | Isnt there a sudo command that can install and download it for me | 03:59 |
| rangua | well.. i'm getting this error: http://pastebin.com/hPBAFKyy | 03:59 |
| acerimmer | oh_noes: private? | 03:59 |
| oh_noes | There was an option "Dual boot" (but this didnt use the 'free space') | 03:59 |
| nixjr | onetinsoldier, thanks, you had a solution, but it didnt fit my purposes | 03:59 |
| rangua | it says something about setting an enviroment variable PYTHONsomething | 03:59 |
| GeekSquid | silverboy0213: speak in complete sentences ... it? | 04:00 |
| onetinsoldier | nixjr: roger | 04:00 |
| nixjr | maco, theres a lot of words there i didnt understand, i needed to get rid of the need to sudo so i could call hddtemp from in another script | 04:00 |
| venessa | sp78750 there is nothing listed under hw this is a Gateway laptop and the wireless worked great before the upgrade. | 04:00 |
| shayisaac | rite | 04:00 |
| acerimmer | oh_noes: did u have the live cd or the alternate cd? | 04:00 |
| shayisaac | i'm back | 04:00 |
| maco | nixjr: then you should run your script with sudo | 04:00 |
| acerimmer | shayisaac: Hey | 04:00 |
| Jordan_U | jedix: Try uncommenting "GRUB_TERMINAL=console" in /etc/default/grub then run update-grub | 04:00 |
| shayisaac | <try to running skype now> | 04:00 |
| Name141 | Is it possible to try and find support for my Dell Photo Printer 540 ? | 04:00 |
| onetinsoldier | silverboy0213: still here? you see my previous post? | 04:00 |
| maco | nixjr: u+x = setuid. the thing will run as root NO MATTER who executes it *without* authentication | 04:00 |
| oh_noes | acerimmer: yeah LiveCD, then I "installed Ubuntu" from the shortcut | 04:00 |
| mah2223_ | yes rangua's questions are very important! | 04:00 |
| silverboy0213 | Isnt there a sudo command that can download and install LaTeX for me | 04:00 |
| wildbat | !who | shayisaac | 04:00 |
| ubottu | shayisaac: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) | 04:00 |
| nips | Ok done | 04:01 |
| Motilon | good evening guys: need help w/wireless connection not working | 04:01 |
| onetinsoldier | silverboy0213: what file did you download exactly? the 'MiKTeX 2.8 Beta 1 for GNU/Linux' file? | 04:01 |
| shayisaac | ooo | 04:01 |
| nips | I'll try now | 04:01 |
| shayisaac | try | 04:01 |
| acerimmer | oh_noes: OK. can u run disk utility and get a look at your HDD? | 04:01 |
| oh_noes | acerimmer: so essentially can I just boot the LiveCD again then reinstall grub and it'll be fine? | 04:01 |
| * nips crosses fingers | 04:01 | |
| maco | nixjr: that means if there's any sort of a bug in hddtemp that relates to pointers, a malicious person could use it to gain FULL administrator access | 04:01 |
| ScarabDrowner | http://www.flickr.com/photos/43227559@N06/4610055273/ | 04:01 |

| ScarabDrowner | http://www.flickr.com/photos/43227559@N06/4610055273/ | 04:01 |
| sp78750 | venessa, do you happen to know what brand of wireless device your system is using? | 04:01 |
| FloodBot4 | ScarabDrowner: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 04:01 |
| oh_noes | will that grub install pickup my existing windows 7 install and add a dual boot menu | 04:01 |
| silverboy0213 | i want to know if theres a sudo command | 04:01 |
| kraig6412 | !tab motiolon | 04:01 |
| wildbat | oh_noes, is should | 04:01 |
| silverboy0213 | that can do it for me | 04:01 |
| ScarabDrowner | had trouble with my up-arrow | 04:01 |
| jedix | Jordan_U: same thing | 04:01 |
| shayisaac | that "!tab" does it mean tab key? | 04:01 |
| acerimmer | oh_noes: well there are a few more stps than that, but it should be relatively easy to "grub rescue" kinda depends on how many parts u ended with | 04:02 |
| shayisaac | acerimer : that "!tab" does it mean tab key? | 04:02 |
| Motilon | !tab | 04:02 |
| ubottu | You can use your <tab> key for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. | 04:02 |
| nixjr | maco, im using it in a conky script, conky doesnt let you sudo things, i thought setuid it would be ok since a temp monitor seems pretty harmless | 04:02 |
| acerimmer | oh_noes: google grub2 rescue | 04:02 |
| GeekSquid | silverboy0213: sudo apt-get install latex | 04:02 |
| ScarabDrowner | screw it | 04:02 |
| Motilon | kraig6412: sry dnt know what u mean. im a noob | 04:02 |
| silverboy0213 | Thanks ill try it now | 04:02 |
| venessa | No I dont but it has never used a propirity driver. | 04:02 |
| shayisaac | acerimer : or else i just type ur name for this my 1st day here | 04:02 |

| maco | nixjr: unless youve done a full code audit you dont know what bugs there could be in pointer handling. besides, im pretty sure conky has a macro for temperature stuff | 04:03 |
| green_scorpion | wildbat: i changed the location on the script... how can i receive it now if i am using sudo? | 04:03 |

| sp78750 | venessa, there is one family of wireless (broadcome, I think) that, while the driver is not propietary, must download fwcutter to get the proprietary firmware for the card. But if that were the case, it should show up in the HW drivers tool. So I'm at a loss for the moment. | 04:05 |

| p1oooop | blendmaster1024: I'm sure if you right click it, something will show | 04:07 |

| shayisaac | acerimer : then - my internal webcam is not functioning | 04:07 |

| blendmaster1024 | maco, what about a way to replace everything that file-roller is associated with with my program? | 04:08 |
| shayisaac | acerimer : still fail | 04:08 |
| maco | blendmaster1024: should be a setting in there to make that the default | 04:08 |
| Chascon | is there such a thing as Ubuntu/KFreeBSD ?! https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoC-Firewall mentions it byt name. | 04:09 |
| maco | blendmaster1024: a checkbox or something in the "open with" window | 04:09 |
| jedix | Jordan_U: it was that the cdrom drive was first in the boot list :/ | 04:09 |
| Motilon | good evening guys: need help w/wireless connection not working | 04:09 |
| maco | blendmaster1024: note there are TWO "open with" thingies. one in the right click menu, one in properties | 04:09 |
| green_scorpion | wildbat: bash: /usr/local/lib/jruby-1.5.0.RC3/bin/rake: /usr/local/lib/jruby-1.5.0.RC3/bin: bad interpreter: Permission denied | 04:09 |

| kraig | Motilon: what kind of computer do you have | 04:09 |
| acerimmer | shayisaac: what make/model of internal cam? | 04:09 |
| p1oooop | blendmaster1024: I'm pretty sure it's in a file somewhere... | 04:09 |

| BlackByte | KruyKaze yeah I also want to do it through compiz | 04:10 |
| acerimmer | shayisaac: sudo lshw | 04:10 |
| blendmaster1024 | maco, is there like an "all-mime-type-open-withs" like kde3 has? | 04:10 |
| shayisaac | acerimer : i check my internal model 1st | 04:10 |
| HoboSteaux | im having problems with laggy video playback on tv out, ati x1650, celeron 2.5. Im thinking its rendering with the cpu, is there any way to force gpu rendering? | 04:10 |
| shayisaac | acerimer : owh | 04:10 |
| bjs | wow, busy room, I'll try a few more things then come back later | 04:10 |
| maco | blendmaster1024: nope | 04:10 |
| devinsba | has anyone heard of anyone not being able to load the installer? | 04:10 |
| p1oooop | bjs: did you make the grub partition "default" | 04:10 |

| Yum | boa noite :D | 04:10 |
| kraig | Motilon did you try and go to system>prefrences> hardware drivers and see what comes up | 04:10 |
| bjs | ploooop no idea: how do I do that? | 04:11 |
| Motilon | kraig: compaq laptop, but ive used this wireless conn b4, didnt change a thing. havent used it in about 0 days though | 04:11 |
| p1oooop | bjs: it's some kind of BIOS thing, I remember I fixed it once | 04:11 |
| maco | blendmaster1024: there's a "preferred applications" thing in system -> preferences, but i dont think it includes archive formats, and even if it did it wouldnt let you specify for .zip versus .tar.gz | 04:11 |
| KruyKaze | BlackByte, how long have you been looking? | 04:11 |
| rangua | i'm guessing now that python's the thing that is screwed up.. can i apt-get from a chroot'd enviroment?? | 04:11 |
| Motilon | kraig: will do, gimme a sec | 04:11 |
| bjs | ploooop: it boots into grub, grub just doesn't understand the new partition layout | 04:12 |
| shayisaac | acerimer : emm ... can i say that i dont see any of the drivers | 04:12 |
| acerimmer | shayisaac: wait 1 | 04:12 |
| Motilon | kraig: "no propietary drivers are in use on this system" | 04:12 |
| shayisaac | acerimer : seems like it didnt installed | 04:12 |
| BlackByte | KruyKaze its was about 3 months ago I was setting up a gtx280 | 04:12 |
| shayisaac | acerimer : i mean the driver | 04:12 |
| blendmaster1024 | maco, what about editing the backend config files? | 04:13 |
| nips | :D I'm back | 04:13 |
| === Stone420 is now known as G-Bleezy | ||
| wildbat | green_scorpion, it is weird ~ root should have access to everything in the first place.... | 04:13 |
| KruyKaze | BlackByte, that mean i'll do it through devil's pie :D | 04:13 |
| nips | coz_ So uhm im currently running the livecd | 04:13 |
| KruyKaze | thx | 04:13 |
| devinsba | my installer wont work :(, i cant get it to actually load the installer, even when setting params from the command line of the installer | 04:14 |
| BlackByte | KruyKaze np | 04:14 |
| nips | and I had to remove "quiet splash" from the command line and add "nomodeset" and "vga=792" | 04:14 |
| acerimmer | shayisaac: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Webcam take a look here and I suspect you'll be able to work out the solution. Sorry I couldn't give you a shorter more direct answer | 04:14 |
| wildbat | green_scorpion, try jruby /usr/local/lib/jruby-1.5.0.RC3/bin/rake | 04:14 |
| coz_ | nips, cool... now if you dont have much to backup on the previous install just go ahead and install lucid clean...however if you do have some things needed to keep try backing them up now | 04:14 |
| maco | blendmaster1024: i wouldnt know where they live, sorry. i use kde :P | 04:14 |
| Motilon | kraig: "no propietary drivers are in use on this system" | 04:14 |
| shayisaac | ACE : :D ... u already helped me a lot man ... ok .. i try that link for now | 04:14 |
| blendmaster1024 | maco, heh so do i, i'm doing this as part of a program for someone else | 04:14 |
| nips | Can I install it as if I was installing it using wubi? | 04:14 |
| maco | blendmaster1024: but i definitely remember being able to right click a file and change its default application when i used gnome | 04:14 |
| Jordan_U | bjs: Either re-install grub from a liveCD or at the rescue shell run "set" and look at the value for $prefix | 04:15 |
| nips | (as in inside windows, but from linux?) | 04:15 |
| shayisaac | ACE : owh ... ya, i already check thru that page in ubuntu forum there | 04:15 |
| blendmaster1024 | nips, linux inside linux or windows inside linux? | 04:15 |
| shayisaac | ACE : its juz doesnt show me how to install my hardware | 04:15 |
| Chascon | bsd inside? | 04:15 |
| Chascon | fbsd | 04:15 |
| nips | Install linux inside linux under windos (my brain just melt) | 04:16 |
| shayisaac | ACE : my WINE also doesnt work whenever i need to install exe files | 04:16 |
| acerimmer | shayisaac: 1 last thing: do u have "cheese"? | 04:16 |
| shayisaac | ACE : i do have cheese | 04:16 |
| blendmaster1024 | nips, just install again using wubi | 04:16 |
| blendmaster1024 | should allow multiple installs | 04:16 |
| shayisaac | ACE : just install it this morning | 04:16 |
| bjs | Jordan_U: okie dokie, will reinstall grub | 04:16 |
| acerimmer | shayisaac: run cheese and see if u get a cam response | 04:16 |
| nips | yes but if i do that my monitor will be all out of frequency again | 04:16 |
| ScarabDrowner | well, thanks everyone for ignoring my issue. screw y'all later | 04:16 |
| shayisaac | ACE : no response ... juz dark - i tried that this morning as well | 04:16 |
| green_scorpion | wildbat: no | 04:17 |
| acerimmer | shayisaac: ok that pretty much confirms you're going to have to research a bit until u find the right config | 04:17 |
| coz_ | nips, oh I see you had used wubi on windows..... ah I have never used that before... I generally either dual boot with windows or only have ubuntu on a system as a clean install sorry | 04:17 |
| BlackByte | nips what ever happens you will still have windows to use | 04:17 |
| p1oooop | bjs: either that or MANUALLY reconfigure it ;) | 04:17 |
| shayisaac | ACE : hahaha ... emm ... anyway, wutz up wth my WINE? is it always an issue? i juz cant install any exe files | 04:17 |
| kraig | motilon: search the package manager for bcmwl-kernel-source | 04:18 |
| devinsba | my installer wont work :(, i cant get it to actually load the installer, even when setting params from the command line of the installer | 04:18 |
| nips | well I wouldn't want linux overwriting windows :C | 04:18 |
| acerimmer | shayisaac: sorry dude. I don't DO wine! | 04:18 |
| Motilon | kraig: k | 04:18 |
| maxxist | so I made a usb patchstick installer with the startup creator in ubuntu. it says it works. but my mac 10.6.3 wont recognize it as a startup disk | 04:18 |
| wildbat | green_scorpion, no idea what happen ~ never do ruby be4 ~ but seem root don't have ruby script engine access. | 04:18 |
| Gozar | How do I enable two 8400GS for 3 monitors in 10.04 with Nouveau? | 04:19 |
| shayisaac | ACE : ooo ... i juz found like - the things sounds so useful. Hmm ... can i ctinue with another questions bro? | 04:19 |
| acerimmer | shayisaac: on the webcam, you're not alone, so it's more a matter of searching out the right answer | 04:19 |
| p1oooop | shayisaac: yeah, WINE has a few problems, but it's the best windows emulator there is IMHO... why do you think EVE recommends it? | 04:19 |
| acerimmer | shayisaac: ask. | 04:19 |
| Jordan_U | maxxist: Apple's BIOS implementation is broken, it doesn't allow you to boot from USB | 04:19 |
| maxxist | the superdrive on my mac doesnt read anything anymore(no surprise there). so I cant boot with a cd. | 04:19 |
| Motilon | kraig: not ibstalled | 04:19 |
| shayisaac | ACE : owh :D | 04:19 |
| Motilon | kraig: not installed* | 04:19 |
| Chascon | Apple doesn't use BIOS | 04:19 |
| Chascon | never has | 04:19 |
| p1oooop | Chascon: !?!?!? | 04:19 |
| shayisaac | ACE : emm ... u know bout firewire expansion card? | 04:19 |
| Chascon | used to be Open Firmware on ppc | 04:20 |
| Chascon | and on intel it's something else | 04:20 |
| maxxist | Jordan_U, i guess i will have to learn network boot then. | 04:20 |
| acerimmer | shayisaac: sorry. i've got a hackintosh, but haven't yet tried to install firewire | 04:20 |
| green_scorpion | wildbat: just an example....the command jruby works....when i try sudo jruby i receive command not found | 04:20 |
| Chascon | let me see what the new firmware is called ... | 04:20 |
| Motilon | kraig: shoudl i install it? | 04:20 |
| shayisaac | ACE : i am an active videographer and just switch to ubuntu due to frustrated with windows and cant afford to buy a mac | 04:20 |
| devinsba | my lynx install cd wont work :(, i cant get it to actually load the installer, even when setting params from the command line of the installer | 04:20 |
| shayisaac | ACE : ooo | 04:20 |
| Toucan | Tatsel :O | 04:20 |
| Jordan_U | Chascon: Apple has a BIOS implementation, that's how you can run windows on intel macs. | 04:21 |
| kraig | Motilon: did you try and restart it since this happened and is the indicator still in the panel | 04:21 |
| acerimmer | shayisaac: i understand. the answers ARE there but you're going to have to spend a bit of time researching | 04:21 |
| p1oooop | shayisaac: like I said, WINE = problems | 04:21 |
| shayisaac | ACE : hahhahaha | 04:21 |
| kraig | yes | 04:21 |
| acerimmer | shayisaac: that said have you installed ubuntu-studio yet? | 04:21 |
| Toucan | I am still wondering about why the new version of ubuntu failed to work for me, even though version 9.10 worked for me | 04:21 |
| Tatsel | Toucan: :o what | 04:21 |
| Chascon | Jordan_U: I vbelieve you mean bios simulation | 04:21 |
| kraig | after installing restart your computer and try that | 04:21 |
| shayisaac | ACE : erk ... eh? we do have that eh? | 04:21 |
| Chascon | and it's that simulation that enables you to use accel | 04:21 |
| Gozar | Chascon: EFI? | 04:21 |
| p1oooop | shayisaac: look up your program on the appdb on the WINE website | 04:21 |
| wildbat | green_scorpion, i think you have just installed ruby for the user only ~ so root don't have the correct env set up for running the ruby script | 04:21 |
| Chascon | yes | 04:21 |
| shayisaac | ACE : where to get it? software center? | 04:21 |
| Chascon | Gozar: that's it | 04:21 |
| Tatsel | Toucan: no idea D: | 04:21 |
| acerimmer | shayisaac: oh HELL yes! ustudio is the bomb - it installs over ubuntu | 04:22 |
| Jordan_U | Chascon: BIOS is an interface, as is EFI. Apple's firmware implements both interfaces. | 04:22 |
| devinsba | Toucan: wont work for me either, at least not a fresh install | 04:22 |
| shayisaac | ACE : owh ... i need to land on some websites or just software center? | 04:22 |
| Toucan | I had version 9.10 then version 10.04 came out, I downloaded it via the torrent | 04:22 |
| acerimmer | shayisaac: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudio | 04:22 |
| Toucan | I copied to computer | 04:22 |
| Toucan | downloaded it | 04:22 |
| Toucan | installed it* | 04:22 |
| Chascon | I've always thought that BIOS is firmware. It's always referred to in that way | 04:22 |
| Toucan | and the screen kept goign screwy on me | 04:23 |
| shayisaac | ACE : i'm running to the site ... :D | 04:23 |
| acerimmer | shayisaac: might i also suggest u check out a book "Crafting Digital Media" | 04:23 |
| Toucan | before I got to the login screen | 04:23 |
| Motilon | kraig: indicator still in the panel. restarted more tha a couple of times. i can see available wireless networks, bt wont connect to none, and if i try to connect to my (hidden) wrls conn; the "connect" button is disabled... | 04:23 |
| acerimmer | shayisaac: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudio | 04:23 |
| devinsba | Toucan: at least you got it installed, ive only been able to get it installed with a distupgrade | 04:23 |
| Toucan | I said screw it and installed windows | 04:23 |
| shayisaac | ACE : bro, what does it mean "running from the DVD"? | 04:23 |
| Toucan | I wasn't going to deal with it | 04:23 |
| acerimmer | shayisaac: the ubuntu upgrade option is here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Ubuntu%20Studio%20Upgrade%20from%20Ubuntu | 04:24 |
| shayisaac | ACE : "Install Ubuntu Studio from the DVD " | 04:24 |
| BlackByte | Chascon BIOS is very low level software as in assembly | 04:24 |
| maxxist | anyone have a good website to follow for a network boot lucid install? | 04:24 |
| acerimmer | shayisaac: only need dvd for a clean ustudio install | 04:24 |
| shayisaac | ACE : i need to burn ISO first? | 04:24 |
| devinsba | Toucan, you could try 9.10, i havent had problems with it yet | 04:24 |
| p1oooop | shayisaac: you can mount it in ubuntu | 04:24 |
| Toucan | I had 9.10, I was going to upgrade it to the new version, but since I couldn't get it uploaded I thought it my be a bug | 04:25 |
| shayisaac | ACE : erm .. starting by juz download it first to my Downloads folder? possible? | 04:25 |
| blendmaster1024 | what is the command to open a file the way nautilus does? | 04:25 |
| kraig | Motilon how about disable and renable | 04:25 |
| Chascon | Jordan_U: ok. I'm seeing that here on http://www.intel.com/technology/efi/ | 04:25 |
| acerimmer | shayisaac: NO NO NO! you've got ubuntu - full upgrade command on this page https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Ubuntu%20Studio%20Upgrade%20from%20Ubuntu | 04:25 |
| Jordan_U | Chascon: It depends on context. Since most PC hardware's firmware implements a BIOS interface people often refer to the firmware as the BIOS. That's not incorrect, it's just a different context. But the semantics aren't that important anyway. | 04:25 |
| shayisaac | ACE : oooo .. i see ... its sumthing like built in program rite? | 04:26 |
| emerling | shayisaac, if you have one desktop GUI envrioment you can instal other any desinstall firts desktop | 04:26 |
| acerimmer | shayisaac: download's is fine | 04:26 |
| Motilon | kraig: tried all that: no luck, even though my conn is automatic | 04:26 |
| p1oooop | shayisaac: sudo mount -o loop -t (image here) /media/(somthing) | 04:26 |
| devinsba | Toucan, I got a distribution upgrade done, but cant even get past the splash screen to the install cd | 04:26 |
| MisterK85 | Hi there everyone. Dunno if anyone can help me here since #mythbuntu is awfully quiet. I got the 32-bit version of Mythbuntu downloaded and burned. Running AMD Sempron @ 1.6GHz with 1GB of RAM with the following hardware: 80GB Drive, ATI Radeon 9250 AGP, Modem (for Windows dualboot) and BT848 Video Capture. I get to the boot up and it freezes up with flashing white cursor. Any ideas? | 04:26 |
| acerimmer | shayisaac: u studio is add on packages to ubuntu | 04:26 |
| emerling | if you use gnome ubuntu or kubuntu o xubuntu you can ubuntu studio, no need download | 04:26 |
| p1oooop | shayisaac: and don't forget to make the directory | 04:26 |
| blendmaster1024 | p1oooop, stop! stop! | 04:26 |
| Toucan | I have no clue devinsba | 04:26 |
| emerling | yes stop | 04:26 |
| shayisaac | PLOOP : that sounds like clashing with ACE ideas | 04:26 |
| acerimmer | shayisaac: of course if u WAN | 04:27 |
| p1oooop | blendmaster1024: lol, sorry | 04:27 |
| shayisaac | PLOOP/ACE : =| | 04:27 |

| === kylezoa_away is now known as kylezoa | ||
| Toucan | lol devinsba, I think that they should fix this so that all of the joins and parts don't show up, as it is quite annoying, and I'm sure others leave because of this very reason as well | 04:28 |
| shayisaac | ACE : so, is it that an idea for me juz go to the sites you adviced juz now? | 04:28 |
| blendmaster1024 | shayisaac, no. no. no. | 04:28 |
| blendmaster1024 | shayisaac, press alt+f2, type "gksudo synaptic", press enter, then type your password | 04:28 |
| shayisaac | BLEND : basically, what does that function? | 04:28 |
| acerimmer | shayisaac: bookmark the sites. you'll need them for later. | 04:28 |
| blendmaster1024 | shayisaac, it will open the program installer, which will then allow you to install ubuntu studio | 04:29 |
| shayisaac | ACE : owh ... ok. Thats very first thnag i should do then | 04:29 |
| acerimmer | blendmaster1024: thanks. think we all confused him | 04:29 |

| acicula | bios | 04:32 |
| maco | Chascon: have you tried rEFIt? | 04:32 |
| arinya | maybe someone will help me with running dpkg --search /etc/samba/smb.conf and tell me the result | 04:32 |
| blendmaster1024 | shayisaac, so now search for ubuntustudio by clicking on the search button (not by using the little quick search box) | 04:32 |
| shayisaac | ACE : does that mean i need to run to the TERMINAL and type the wget things? | 04:32 |
| maco | p1oooop: its what apple uses instead of BIOS | 04:32 |
| shayisaac | BLEND : emm ... sounds better sense here | 04:32 |
| Chascon | yes, but I mean why don't linux distros include that | 04:32 |
| blendmaster1024 | shayisaac, disregard everything everyone else said, they hadn't figured out what you wanted to do | 04:32 |
| Chascon | ? | 04:32 |
| Chascon | rather than having to download that before hand | 04:33 |
| acerimmer | shayisaac: go with blendmaster | 04:33 |
| shayisaac | BLEND : hohohohoh ... i do have lots of ubuntustudio things | 04:33 |
| Chascon | I mean if I recall that was the routine some time ago | 04:33 |
| p1oooop | Chascon: I believe it does | 04:33 |
| shayisaac | ACE : okay bro ... thankz for ur warm help ... really appreciate that | 04:33 |
| devinsba | I need a little help getting my lucid installer live cd working if anyone has time | 04:33 |
| p1oooop | Chascon: and I THINK GRUB supports too | 04:33 |
| shayisaac | ACE : :) | 04:33 |
| p1oooop | shayisaac: take care :) | 04:34 |
| acicula | maco well apple is one of the few using it on pcs | 04:34 |
| blendmaster1024 | shayisaac, well .. actually ... do you know how to get to a terminal? | 04:34 |
| Chascon | accel supported right off the bat now too? | 04:34 |
| acerimmer | shayisaac: enjoy the studio. a mac guy will love it. | 04:34 |
| emerling | if you have desktop ubuntu or kubuntu or xubuntu, you can install desktop ubuntu or destop packages | 04:34 |
| shayisaac | BLEND : yep ... i already open it up and being mumbled with so many weird syntax already ... hahaha | 04:34 |
| Motilon | kraig: mine is atheros AR5001... | 04:34 |
| p1oooop | shayisaac: the terminal IS THE TOOL... it's just kinda hard to use | 04:35 |
| kraig | motilon:then you should have had madwifi | 04:35 |
| shayisaac | ACE : yep ... hahaha ... its just that MALAYSIA give high price for mac with so nonsense | 04:35 |
| blendmaster1024 | shayisaac, run exactly this on the terminal (minus the outside quotes): "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install ubuntustudio-desktop ubuntustudio-audio ubuntustudio-audio-plugins ubuntustudio-graphics ubuntustudio-video linux-rt" | 04:35 |
| ken | I did a clean install of 9.10 do I have to reinstall drivers for processor nad main board or no | 04:35 |
| patx | is there a way to see what packages i have apt-get installed? | 04:36 |
| blendmaster1024 | woah whoops very long line | 04:36 |
| Motilon | kraig: yes | 04:36 |
| shayisaac | BLEND : ok ... got it | 04:36 |
| shayisaac | <running TERMINAL> | 04:36 |
| acerimmer | blendmaster1024:here's ustudio command line for all ustudio packages - copy/paste to command line http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/NeGZwLD4 | 04:36 |
| kraig | when you first installed ubuntu was it offered to you | 04:36 |
| blendmaster1024 | acerimmer, i know, that's what i gave him, except that i changed it to apt-get | 04:37 |
| acerimmer | blendmaster1024: me typing you typing. no prob | 04:37 |
| blendmaster1024 | shayisaac, when it asks "do you want to install [y/n]" hit y and then enter | 04:37 |
| Motilon | kraig: i guess so, i didnt change a thing, except i did install aircrack | 04:37 |
| blendmaster1024 | Motilon, i saw a crack in the air the other day | 04:38 |
| blendmaster1024 | i walked over to it and it turned out to be a shader error | 04:38 |
| shayisaac | BLEND : yep ... emm. this code looks understandable | 04:38 |
| shayisaac | BLEND : i juz sumtimes confuse with wget, apt-get and that sudo dpkg things | 04:39 |
| Sirisian | what's the command to query for the GPUs and their names and such? | 04:39 |
| blendmaster1024 | shayisaac, tell me when it goes back to "user@host:~$" | 04:39 |
| klisto | what is the topic?? | 04:39 |
| shayisaac | BLEND : emm | 04:39 |
| blendmaster1024 | Sirisian, well, there is lspci | 04:40 |
| p1oooop | Sirisian: I think it's lshw for all hardware... | 04:40 |
| p1oooop | blendmaster1024: oops, yeah... lspci | 04:40 |
| p1oooop | lshw=overkill | 04:40 |
| King_Ozzy | why is the little script for random wallpapers at boot with feh not working? | 04:40 |
| shayisaac | BLEND : anyway - while waiting for it to finish the installation - may i ask bout the most basic syntax apart from sudo? | 04:40 |
| blendmaster1024 | p1oooop, holy *** yeah it is | 04:40 |
| p1oooop | heh | 04:40 |
| Jeaton | how do I change the grub boot order in ubuntu? | 04:40 |
| p1oooop | Jeaton: edit the grub.cfg file | 04:41 |
| Buhmillion | Jeatonedit the menu.lst file in /boot | 04:41 |
| acerimmer | shayisaac: what are mac prices in malay.?? | 04:41 |
| Jeaton | thank you | 04:41 |
| blendmaster1024 | shayisaac, sudo [command] means run [command] as the super-administrator. linux calls this super-admin "root". | 04:41 |
| patx | is there a way to see what packages i have apt-get installed? | 04:41 |
| p1oooop | Buhmillion: wait... doesn't it change with the new grub and the old grub? | 04:41 |
| Sirisian | p1oooop, thanks worked | 04:41 |
| shayisaac | ACE : the last time iMAC that i used - the most basic features one is RM 5K | 04:41 |
| King_Ozzy | did anyone reply to my question? | 04:42 |
| shayisaac | ACE : damn slow for my final cut pro | 04:42 |
| kraig | Matilon: did you patch your driver before you installed aircrack | 04:42 |
| p1oooop | Sirisian: you should thank blendmaster1024, LOL | 04:42 |

| blendmaster1024 | shayisaac, apt-get [type of thing] does various program-install stuff. apt-get install [names] installs [names] | 04:42 |

| dbum | wildbat: you can just type python and then do simple math in it..... just type exit() when you are done | 04:45 |
| shayisaac | BLEND : "apt-get install [names] installs [names]" means i just change the [names] with the file names, rite? | 04:45 |

| acerimmer | shayisaac: yeah but you'll love the result | 04:47 |
| shayisaac | ACE : let me check for you ... he have several accounts for the company | 04:47 |
| myron | I just upgraded to 10.4 and it broke my nvidia driver... everytime I boot, I get a message "ubuntu is running in low graphics mode | 04:48 |
| blendmaster1024 | myron, HAHAHAHA everyone i know gets that and it's hilarious because it's because of an "upgrade" | 04:48 |
| Dr_Willis | myron: i get that even on clean installs | 04:48 |
| shayisaac | ACE : these are my works ... http://www.masteryacademy.com/estore/dvdsmain.asp ... but let me check where the programmer put the videos for viewers | 04:49 |

| Dr_Willis | myron: theres somthing going on with the time the nvidia driver is taking to load and gdm starting up. - all during beta. i would have the issue.. then not.. then it would come back | 04:49 |
| myron | yeah, but when I use nvidia-xconfig, and reboot, I still get the same error message | 04:49 |
| Dr_Willis | myron: i found if i just restart the gdm service. it then works. | 04:49 |
| Dr_Willis | myron: it has nothing to do with the config. Its seems to be a matter of timing. | 04:50 |
| blendmaster1024 | myron, install the commercial nvidia driver | 04:50 |
| Dr_Willis | myron: when i have it happen i tell it to exit to the console and do a 'sudo service gdm restart' and most all the time X then loads fine | 04:50 |
| myron | and how shall i accomplish that? | 04:50 |
| Dr_Willis | If yo have the nvidia-config tool installed.. then you proberly are using the nvidia 'comercial' driver. | 04:51 |
| shayisaac | ACE : this is one that free one for viewer ... hahaha ... http://www.facebook.com/video/video.php?v=1319092380055&ref=mf ... just the christmas wish | 04:51 |
| ken | After doing a clean install to 10.4 Do I need to reload drivers for mainboard etc? | 04:51 |
| myron | right, and I also have the nvidia utility under administration. | 04:51 |
| acerimmer | shayisaac: so i see you've been BZ! | 04:51 |
| Dr_Willis | myron: there was supposed to be a 'fix' where you increase a timeout in a few of the gdm config files. but im not sure if its totally works. | 04:51 |

| blendmaster1024 | shayisaac, i need zzzz, when that finishes, you should just be good, ask again if you need more help | 04:54 |

| Alumin | the www-data user's only group is the www-data group | 04:55 |
| shayisaac | BLEND : sure bro .. sorry for keep on bugging you | 04:55 |
| theadmin | Alumin: make it root:www-data, I suppose | 04:55 |

| myron | I also can't enable compiz...hmmm | 04:55 |

| patx | thank u | 04:56 |
| Alumin | kzman: you mean your terminal program's scrollback? | 04:56 |
| Alumin | if so, depends on the terminal program | 04:56 |
| theadmin | kzman: However, that will destroy the file if it exists. If you want to append it, use >> | 04:56 |

| nips | thanks :] | 05:00 |
| moetunes | kzman: telnet - I don't think you can - does man telnet give an option | 05:00 |
| mgmuscari | i know that thinkpads write to the non-volatile memory usually... ideapads seem to be different | 05:00 |
| nips | is there a way I can make GRUB boot using nomodeset and etc? like without me doing it everytime i boot? | 05:00 |
| theadmin | Alumin: Someone suggested "Microsoft Manipulator" for the M release, but that doesn't really match up with current naming system | 05:00 |
| Alumin | hahaha | 05:00 |
| Jordan_U | Chascon: Linux can be booted from EFI using grub-efi, but there are currently issues with many graphics drivers when BIOS isn't available | 05:01 |
| BlackByte | nips if you decide to install it to the hd you can put the nomodeset and 792 into the grub file | 05:01 |
| ubuntu__ | how come my ubuntu install is slower than the live cd | 05:01 |
| ubuntu__ | ? | 05:01 |
| Alumin | really fast CD, really slow HD? | 05:01 |
| Alumin | heh | 05:01 |
| nips | already installed to the hd | 05:01 |
| Motilon | kraig: plz take a look at: | 05:01 |
| nips | :] how can I edit the grub file? | 05:01 |
| Motilon | kraig: plz take a look at: http://imagepaste.nullnetwork.net/viewimage.php?id=937 | 05:01 |
| mgmuscari | ubuntu__: my guess, the live cd caches things in a ram disk as you use them, making them much faster to access once they're loaded in | 05:02 |
| Jordan_U | nips: Edit /etc/default/grub then "sudo update-grub" | 05:02 |
| BlackByte | nips try this sudo nano /boot/grub.cfg | 05:02 |
| myron | when enabling compiz, I get "warn: no gplxrbconfig for depth 32" | 05:02 |
| ubuntu__ | alumin: well my hard drive is ata so that might be the reason, but i thought it would be faster... | 05:02 |
| jesi | I have a problem. I installed Icedtea and when I enter to th MySpace photo uploader Firefox crashes. Any idea on what is happening? | 05:02 |
| myron | what should I do to fix this? | 05:03 |
| BlackByte | nips try Jordan_U first | 05:03 |
| moetunes | ubuntu__: or you open top in terminal and see if somethings hogging the cpu | 05:03 |
| mgmuscari | nips: BlackByte: recommended way is to NOT edit /boot/grub.cfg these days - edit the creation scripts in /etc instead | 05:03 |
| joshdavey | hey, I'm trying to follow this tutorial: http://djangoadvent.com/1.2/deploying-django-site-using-fastcgi/ but when I run "sudo initctl start svscanboot" I get the error "initctl: Unknown job: svscanboot" | 05:03 |
| ubuntu__ | mgmuscari: is there any way to do this is the original install to make it faster | 05:03 |
| BlackByte | mgmuscari old habits! | 05:03 |
| Barnabas | ubuntu__, sata/ata/scsi does not make much difference on a single disk | 05:03 |
| nips | Jordan_U, BlackByte Ok I will! | 05:03 |
| mgmuscari | BlackByte: i do it too ;) | 05:03 |
| Barnabas | all have sufficient bandwith to cope with most disk | 05:04 |
| Jordan_U | mgmuscari: Usually you just have to change settings in /etc/default/grub. You very rarely need to edit scripts in /etc/grub.d/ | 05:04 |
| ubuntu__ | moetunes, how do i check that... i am a new ubuntu user | 05:04 |
| mgmuscari | Jordan_U: good point - depends on what you're doing with it | 05:04 |
| myron | sudo compiz --replace outputs: "warn: no gplxrbconfig for depth 32" | 05:04 |
| BalSak | hi guys. is there a guide available somewhere on setting up empathy for SIP VoIP? | 05:04 |
| myron | what should I do to fix this? | 05:05 |
| ken | Is it better to go through hardware drivers for proprietary drivers or from the video card website | 05:05 |
| mgmuscari | ubuntu__: well i guess it depends on your setup... might want to take a loot at how you've partitioned your drive. did you make a swap partition? | 05:05 |
| Barnabas | myron - does your montir support 32 bit? | 05:05 |
| mgmuscari | ken: much easier to use the ubuntu packages for them | 05:05 |
| Barnabas | most lcds are 24 bit | 05:05 |
| moetunes | ubuntu__: open terminal from the menu and type top - it has a column showing the cpu usage for each prog | 05:05 |
| mgmuscari | ken: what manufacturer | 05:05 |
| myron | compiz worked on 8.04, all of this is after upgrade to 10.4 | 05:05 |
| ken | mgmuscari: Nvidia | 05:06 |
| soreau | myron: You have nvidia? | 05:06 |
| mgmuscari | ken: just use the package provided by ubuntu for them | 05:06 |
| myron | barnabas: theadmin's advice to run "sudo service gdm restart" fixed my nvidia driver, but I still can't enable compiz | 05:07 |
| ubuntu__ | mgmuscari, here is my setup, amd athlon xII 5200, gigabyte mobo, using mobo's graphics (no graphics card) and one sata hd and one ata hd | 05:07 |
| mgmuscari | ken: if you must get the latest and greatest from the nvidia website, see if you can get a .deb for them, and use dpkg -i to install it | 05:07 |
| myron | soreau: yes, and I have it working thanks to theadmin | 05:07 |
| ubuntu__ | mgmuscari oh and i forgot 4 gb of ram | 05:07 |
| mgmuscari | ubuntu__: so what are your performance problems? | 05:07 |
| soreau | myron: It may have let you into X but your drivers are still broken for glx/3D | 05:07 |
| ken | mgmuscari: Do I need to install for main board and other periphials or does ubuntu handle that background | 05:07 |
| Barnabas | myron could you try | 05:07 |
| Barnabas | glxinfo | grep direct | 05:07 |
| Barnabas | and glxinfo | grep vendor | 05:08 |
| ubuntu__ | mgmuscari during the setup it made a 2gb swap partition idk if that is enough or not | 05:08 |
| mgmuscari | ken: most common hardware is supported out of the box | 05:08 |
| myron | soreau: any settings I could check in the nividia tool under administration? | 05:08 |
| mgmuscari | ubuntu__: that's fine | 05:08 |
| myron | barnabas: direct rendering: yes | 05:08 |
| mgmuscari | ken: forget about the old days of installing a bazillion device drivers under windows :) | 05:09 |
| ubuntu__ | moetunes, i doubt thats the problem because the cpu usage is usually about 10-20% | 05:09 |
| moetunes | ubuntu__: it was just a thing to check... | 05:09 |
| mgmuscari | ken: and pretty much all software or drivers you could need are usually available through Synaptic Package Manager | 05:09 |
| mgmuscari | ubuntu__: what do you mean by "slow" anyway? | 05:10 |
| ubuntu__ | mgmuscari, basically everything is slower to start, and file trasfer is slower | 05:10 |
| mgmuscari | ubuntu__: sounds like a disk i/o bottleneck. if you have it installed on an old IDE hard disk, then maybe your disk is feeling its age | 05:10 |
| ubuntu__ | mgmuscari programs are slower to boot up, (im not talking about internet speed when i say slow) | 05:10 |
| Barnabas | myron what happens if you open a console and type "compiz --replace" | 05:10 |
| myron | sudo compiz --replace outputs: "warn: no gplxrbconfig for depth 32" | 05:11 |
| ubuntu__ | mgmuscari ok thanks i think the age is the problem because its a pretty old ide drive | 05:11 |
| soreau | myron: That means you need to reinstall the nvidia driver | 05:11 |
| mgmuscari | ubuntu__: bad sectors and such can lead to disks being really slow | 05:11 |
| Barnabas | myron, have you somehow set your display to run 32 bit truecolor | 05:12 |
| ubuntu__ | mgmuscari and moetunes thanks for your help | 05:12 |
| mgmuscari | ubuntu__: no problem | 05:12 |
| moetunes | np | 05:12 |

| mgmuscari | if i have buttons on my laptop that do not generate events under xev | 05:13 |
| mgmuscari | what's my best bet for trying to read those buttons? | 05:13 |
| Barnabas | myron how did you install the nvidia drivers | 05:14 |
| mgmuscari | and i've tried evtest on all the devices under /dev/input. i've also tried tailing everything i could under /dev | 05:14 |
| myron | no nvidia settings says that it is 24 bit colors | 05:14 |
| Barnabas | they are located in the nvidia-current package in lucid | 05:14 |
| bobbyyu | Hey guys, I just got Ubuntu 10.4 and when I try to open a DVD source to use with Synaptic, I get an error called " | 05:14 |
| bobbyyu | E:Failed to mount the cdrom." | 05:14 |
| nips | BlackByte hey I'm back again | 05:15 |
| flan_suse | Is there a safe way to change the username (without touching the uid) on Lucid? I tried modifying the /etc/passwd file, but that simply locked my out completely; not being able to login using either the old or new username. I changed /etc/passwd back to normal. In the users-admin tool, I found no option to change the username. | 05:15 |
| myron | barnabas: nvidia-current should be installed let me check | 05:15 |
| nips | what was that command? I forgot :C | 05:15 |
| Barnabas | myron, if not try a dpkg-reconfigure nvidia-current | 05:15 |
| BlackByte | nips nomodeset and vga=792 | 05:15 |
| Barnabas | myron, if they are sorry | 05:16 |
| nips | yes but how do i edit grub? | 05:16 |
| nips | That's what I forgot :P | 05:16 |
| bobbyyu | Has anyone gotten the same error as I did? "E:Failed to mount the cdrom?" | 05:17 |
| myron | barnabas: still getting used to 10.4 I think that synaptic is showing that nvidia-current is installed, but it is showing the hardy version installed | 05:17 |
| R0b0t1 | Hello. I've installed icedtea, how do I get firefox to use it? | 05:17 |
| nips | BlackByte sudo nano [and i forgot] | 05:18 |
| Barnabas | myron, you need to ensure all your software sources are lucid | 05:18 |
| Barnabas | pkg manager | 05:18 |
| flan_suse | R0b0t1, the icedtea alternative to java? I think you also need to install the icedtea plugin. | 05:18 |
| BlackByte | nips one sec | 05:18 |
| R0b0t1 | flan_suse: Yeah... So, how do I do that? | 05:18 |
| nips | oh and how can I access files from the Windows partition? I can only access those from where linux is installed :/ | 05:20 |
| flan_suse | R0b0t1, there should be a package with a name like icedtea6-plugin or something similar. | 05:20 |

| myron | barnabas: also getting "an error occurred whiile mounting /sys/bus/usb/drivers" on bootup | 05:21 |
| Jordan_U | nips: "gksudo /etc/default/grub" then "sudo update-grub" | 05:21 |
| myron | and error: driver 'pcspkr' is already registered, aborting.... | 05:21 |
| Barnabas | do not think that has anything to do with your gfx prob | 05:21 |
| Barnabas | but a second problem indeed | 05:21 |
| nips | Jordan_U thanks | 05:21 |
| bobbyyu | What's the name of the Ubuntu bot? | 05:21 |
| theadmin | nips: You can't access ext4 filesystems from Windows | 05:21 |
| Jordan_U | nips: Sorry, typo "gksudo gedit /etc/default/grub" then "sudo update-grub" | 05:21 |

| Agu10 | hello | 05:22 |
| bobbyyu | E:Failed to mount the cdrom. | 05:22 |
| Agu10 | I wanted to know how to change the colors of windows | 05:22 |
| myron | barnabas: yeah, I know... lots of things I've got to fix | 05:22 |
| Agu10 | I'm using gnome, but I can only change some colors on the theme | 05:22 |
| Agu10 | not all of theme | 05:22 |
| Agu10 | 'them | 05:22 |
| flan_suse | R0b0t1, I'd still recommend installing sun-java6-jre and sun-java6-plugin instead, but it's up to you. You need to enable the Parnter repository, I believe, under "Other Software". | 05:22 |
| RAMPKORV | Roman Gallo | 05:22 |
| nips | theadmin No I meant accessing them from linux | 05:22 |
| Dr_Willis | Agu10: the colors you can change. depend on the theme parts you are using. | 05:23 |
| Agu10 | ? | 05:23 |
| Dr_Willis | Agu10: it depends on the theme. | 05:23 |
| Agu10 | I can't change the background color of the window for example | 05:23 |
| Agu10 | why? | 05:23 |
| Dr_Willis | Agu10: it depends on the theme. and the 'theme parts' that spefific theme is using. | 05:24 |
| Agu10 | "Customize Theme" "Colors" | 05:24 |

| BlackByte | nips your ntfs partition will be picked up by ubuntu | 05:25 |
| Dr_Willis | Agu10: for example 'High COlor Inverse' has its own defined colors. you cant change any of them | 05:25 |
| theadmin | peturi: ...lol | 05:25 |
| donaldbrasco | anyone know which packages are required? | 05:25 |
| peturi | Chazz: plz giv em advice what do tod | 05:25 |
| Dr_Willis | Agu10: the 'Human' controls you can change all the colors. | 05:25 |
| thechris | peturi, wow, 18 shots. well, i guess thing like sed or cat would be useful | 05:25 |
| thechris | only 3 charactgers | 05:25 |
| Agu10 | Dr_Willis: is there any one that allows me to change all of them? | 05:25 |
| Agu10 | eh sorry | 05:25 |
| thechris | hard to make a typo | 05:25 |
| Dr_Willis | Agu10: use a differnt set of Controls - | 05:25 |
| hoglahoo | When I try to run alsamixer, I get this error: "cannot open mixer: No such device". I have not been able to find how to install alsamixer properly. I'm not even sure if that's what I need to do. Help! | 05:26 |
| theadmin | thechris: w would be more useful in such case :D Only 1 character. | 05:26 |
| nips | BlackByte yes it does but one of them in windows I have C: (where windows is installed) and E: where linux is installed (with wubi) I can access files from E: but not C: | 05:26 |
| * Dr_Willis must have 100+ controls and window borders in his themes.. | 05:26 | |
| thechris | peturi, or ls | 05:26 |
| nips | also if I write update-grub it tells me to run that as root | 05:26 |
| nips | how can i do that? | 05:26 |
| theadmin | nips: AAAH WUBI. They're under /host | 05:26 |
| Agu10 | Dr_Willis: I choose that "Human" controls, but I still see only 8 colors to change. 4 background and 4 text | 05:26 |
| flan_suse | nips, put sudo in front of it. | 05:26 |
| Agu10 | are they all that are used? | 05:26 |
| flan_suse | nips, sudo command | 05:26 |
| BlackByte | nips maybe that not a bad thing! | 05:27 |
| Dr_Willis | Agu10: yes. basically thats all that ive ever seen changeable. | 05:27 |
| myron | barnabas: now x will start, but nvidia driver won't load at all | 05:27 |
| nips | ok thanks :D | 05:27 |
| bobbyyu | When there are short error messages, should I paste it on the Pastebin as well? | 05:27 |
| myron | barnabas: I wait a few minutes, run "sudo service gdm restart" and it drops me to bash | 05:27 |
| peturi | sed | 05:28 |
| peturi | sed | 05:28 |
| peturi | what | 05:28 |
| FloodBot4 | peturi: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 05:28 |
| peturi | fdisk or | 05:28 |
| theadmin | bobbyyu: If they are just 1 line you can put them right here | 05:28 |
| nips | theadmin there's only files from E: in /host/ and I need to access those from C: (like documents and settings) | 05:28 |
| Barnabas | myron again checking the driver state is | 05:28 |
| Dr_Willis | Agu10: also it may be the window borders might affect colors also. but i normally just twiddle with all the settings till i find a theme setup i like. | 05:28 |
| peturi | por shoud i sudo those?? HAHAHAHA | 05:28 |
| theadmin | nips: Maybe mounted somewhere under /media/ | 05:28 |
| Barnabas | glxinfo | grep direct AND glxinfo | grep vendor | 05:28 |
| Agu10 | Dr_Willis: I already set emerald as window borders | 05:28 |
| === kylezoa is now known as kylezoa_ | ||
| myron | barnabas: I reinstalled nvidia-current for lucid | 05:28 |
| Agu10 | but I still can't change some colors :-( | 05:28 |
| nips | only floppies :C | 05:28 |
| myron | just a sec, I'll run that | 05:28 |
| === kylezoa_ is now known as kylezoa | ||
| Agu10 | I should be able to change more colors | 05:29 |
| defn | is it safe to install ubuntu 10 on top of an existing win7 install where the current primary bootloader is the windows bootloader? | 05:29 |
| === xod is now known as onats | ||
| Dr_Willis | Agu10: emerald is a TOTALLY diffrent beast. | 05:29 |
| Agu10 | and why can't I set gradients instead? | 05:29 |
| theadmin | defn: Yeah, GRUB can boot Windows. | 05:29 |
| Barnabas | myron try to use the " hardware drivers option then | 05:29 |
| xangua | defn: only if ypu want to remove windows | 05:29 |
| bobbyyu | Well, when I tried to add my Ubuntu 10.4 to use with Software Sources, I get "E:Failed to mount the cdrom." | 05:29 |
| bobbyyu | What to do? | 05:29 |
| Dr_Willis | Agu10: emerald controls the decorations around the window. and you would use emerald to tweak those in 20000+ differnt ways | 05:29 |
| Agu10 | Dr_Willis: is there anything I could install to be able to customize the colors more? | 05:29 |
| nips | theadmin there's floppies there | 05:29 |
| defn | xangua: is that a joke? | 05:29 |
| theadmin | defn: But you need a different partition | 05:29 |
| Barnabas | system->administration->hardware drivers | 05:29 |
| defn | theadmin: *nod* | 05:29 |
| Dr_Willis | Agu10: emerald is also basically a dead project. It may not even be in the next release. | 05:29 |
| theadmin | defn: Have one? Go ahead. | 05:30 |
| Jordan_U | defn: It's either a joke or terribly misinformed. | 05:30 |
| BlackByte | nips try this mount -l and you will see where you windoz is | 05:30 |
| Agu10 | Dr_Willis: I already use emerald for borders, but I want to change the colors inside the windows | 05:30 |
| Dr_Willis | Agu10: install diffrent 'controls' from the various theme sites. theres also lots of themes in various repos and in the package manager not installed by default | 05:30 |
| defn | Jordan_U: lol im just trying to make sure there's no weirdness with the new release | 05:30 |
| flan_suse | Compiz will make a replacement for Emerald? | 05:30 |
| defn | grub2 etc | 05:30 |
| Zelozelos | defn what are you wanting to do? install ubuntu with windows, install ubuntu on its own partition? install ubuntu and remove windows | 05:30 |
| Dr_Willis | Agu10: explore the differnet controls you can install then. then gnome-art tool can assist in installing them from the gnome theme sites | 05:31 |
| Dr_Willis | flan_suse: not really. | 05:31 |
| Dr_Willis | !emerald | 05:31 |
| ubottu | emerald is an obsolete window decorator for compiz. It's unsupported and unmaintained, making issues with it very hard to diagnose and fix. There are no known, supported alternatives. | 05:31 |
| flan_suse | Poop. | 05:31 |
| nips | BlackByte how can I tell? :C | 05:31 |
| myron | barnabas: ran hardware drivers and reported (version 96) recommended was inactive | 05:31 |
| BlackByte | nips tell what? | 05:31 |
| Dr_Willis | Of course in a year or 2 compiz may not be used much any more. :) who knows what the next gnome will have in it. | 05:32 |
| beachbrake | my friend accidentally uninstalled ntwork manager from ubuntu 9.10. then i downloaded network manager .deb install file but it does not install and is giving an error. please help. | 05:32 |
| myron | barnabas: just a sec. rebooting | 05:32 |
| nips | BlackByte how can i figure out where's my windows partition | 05:32 |
| r3m | Hi, during the install I type the chars appears at screen and ubuntu collect these information to detect my keyboard. I would like to reconfigure it please. What is the comm | 05:32 |
| bobbyyu | Should I download Ubuntu 10.4 again? | 05:32 |
| deco | beachbrake: just install networkmanager with apt-get , the packages must be in the cache | 05:32 |
| xangua | beachbrake: you can install network-manager and gnome-network-manager from the ubuntu cd | 05:32 |
| deco | still | 05:32 |
| soreau | Dr_Willis: Who knows, we might have working wayland by then ;) | 05:32 |
| bobbyyu | Is there something wrong with the one I have if I got that error message? | 05:33 |
| Dr_Willis | soreau: or we may be back to focusing on doing work - instead of eyecandy :) | 05:33 |
| Agu10 | Dr_Willis: but I don't like that there are some colors that I cannot change, and they interfere with my theme. sometimes I cannot read black text over black background!!! | 05:33 |
| flan_suse | I love Compiz. A testament to open source outdoing its proprietary counterparts. | 05:33 |
| soreau | Dr_Willis: Nah, that's sure to never happen | 05:33 |
| Dr_Willis | Agu10: mixx and match till you find what you like. thats the bottom line. | 05:33 |
| r3m | Hi, during the install I type the chars appears at screen and ubuntu collect these information to detect my keyboard. I would like to reconfigure it please. What is the comm | 05:33 |
| * Dr_Willis tends to just use the default Plastik or other blueish themes. | 05:34 | |
| theadmin | r3m: System - Preferences - Keyboard - Layouts, go there | 05:34 |
| flan_suse | r3m, System > Preferences > Keyboard | 05:34 |
| soreau | Dr_Willis: Also, aesthetics and candy can promote productivity in a round about way. Further, compiz has candy *and* has a great functionality | 05:34 |
| r3m | thanks | 05:34 |
| Agu10 | Dr_Willis: oh | 05:34 |
| beachbrake | xangua, he inserted CD rom, went to software sources, clicked on 'install CD' , unchecked the unwanted option. | 05:34 |
| BlackByte | nips sudo mkdir /media/myWindoz then sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sda1 /media/myWindowz if it is sda1!! | 05:34 |
| Dr_Willis | soreau: a few festures that help. :) if you can get the people to stop playing with the cube.. and fire on the screen | 05:34 |
| beachbrake | there is no network manager option there! | 05:34 |
| Dr_Willis | BRB -- rebooting to se eif my nvidia card still kicks into low-gfx mode on every reboot. | 05:35 |
| soreau | Dr_Willis: it just wont happen. someone will get lynched if compiz ever leaves ubuntu repos | 05:35 |
| Dr_Willis | soreau: if they can move the controls to the left. they can do anything. :P | 05:35 |
| Dr_Willis | BRB | 05:35 |
| Jordan_U | beachbrake: "sudo apt-get -f install && sudo apt-get install network-manager-gnome --no-download" | 05:35 |
| beachbrake | deco, he can access internet only thorough windows. | 05:35 |
| soreau | beachbrake: If ifconfig does not show the network interface, it's likely a driver issue. Otherwise, it's probably configuration, nameserver or the like | 05:37 |
| nips | BlackByte yey it worked! thanks :] | 05:37 |
| * greezmunkey takes a break from spinning the cube and says, what?? | 05:37 | |
| soreau | heh | 05:37 |
| BlackByte | nips np | 05:37 |
| flames | hi all | 05:38 |
| flames | anyone can help me | 05:38 |
| soreau | ! ask | flames | 05:39 |
| ubottu | flames: 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. :-) | 05:39 |
| kzman | for multiple command line, do i use "&&"?? | 05:39 |
| flan_suse | kzman, yes. | 05:39 |
| flames | how to install kismet in ubuntu 10.04 | 05:39 |
| nips | BlackByte one last thing, is that permanent? Or do i need to do that every time I boot ? | 05:39 |
| myron | barnabas: well that worked... now to figure out how to keep from restarting x and manually enabling compiz after boot... | 05:39 |
| beachbrake | soreau, what if its not talking my password for wifi? | 05:39 |
| flan_suse | kzman, like: sudo mkdir /mnt/temp && sudo mount /dev/sdc1 /mnt/temp | 05:39 |
| myron | barnabas: everytime I | 05:39 |
| soreau | flames: apt-get install kismet | 05:39 |
| myron | boot, | 05:39 |
| kzman | flan_suse, understood, thank you | 05:40 |
| myron | I get " ubuntu is running in low-graphics mode | 05:40 |
| soreau | myron: You mean when you log in there is no window manager and you have to start compiz manually every time you login? | 05:40 |
| Barnabas | myron I think you need to absolutely remove all that has to do with nvidia drivers | 05:40 |
| flames | soreau... from apt-get old version | 05:40 |
| Barnabas | and then add nvidia-current | 05:40 |
| soreau | oh your graphics drivers are still broken myron | 05:40 |
| Barnabas | so all of the old versions | 05:40 |
| Barnabas | using synatpic | 05:40 |
| BlackByte | nips to make it permanant you need to edit /etc/fstab but make a backup of that filefirst | 05:40 |
| flames | i want to complie kismet new core | 05:41 |
| soreau | flames: Ok, so which version do you want and why do you need a newer version? | 05:41 |
| myron | no, I have to log in with low graphics mode, then run "sudo service gdm restart" then log in again, then enable compiz | 05:41 |
| spO | hi | 05:41 |
| spO | are any of you having difficulties with sabnzbd? | 05:41 |
| flames | kismet-2010-01-R1 | 05:41 |
| soreau | myron: So it starts in low graphics mode until you restart gdm? | 05:41 |
| Dr_Willis | myron: trying to fix something like that right now. | 05:41 |
| Barnabas | gdm restart will only restart gdm | 05:41 |
| soreau | flames: What do you need a newer version for? | 05:41 |
| Dr_Willis | myron: let me give the url to the forum thread where i put my notes/fix | 05:41 |
| Barnabas | the same takes place when you reboot | 05:41 |
| myron | Dr_Willis: thanks... | 05:42 |
| Dr_Willis | myron: the issue seems to be the time the nvidia drivers load Vs gdm's timeout options | 05:42 |
| flames | nope just wanna to learn how to complie manual | 05:42 |
| xxiao | codesourcery no longer provide free gnu tools? | 05:42 |

| Dr_Willis | myron: it seems to have worked on this last reboot i did | 05:43 |
| senthilnambi | moetunes: Awesome, thanks | 05:43 |
| moetunes | np | 05:43 |
| Dr_Willis | myron: however. this problem would happen, then vanish, then reappear for me all through beta testing. I even had similer issues on my netbook and its intel gfx. | 05:44 |
| Gozar | senthilnambi: You can also use up and down arrow key, but I think in Ubuntu you need to hold ctrl as well. | 05:44 |
| WXZ | hi, how do you install multiple instances of something on ubuntu? | 05:44 |
| WXZ | like pidgin and tomboy notes | 05:44 |
| nips | BlackByte Ok I backed it up now what? :O | 05:44 |
| myron | Dr_Willis: hmmm how are you doing the delay? | 05:44 |
| Dr_Willis | myron: with the lines i put in the gdm config files. | 05:44 |
| red2kic | !multipleinstancesofsomething | 05:44 |
| myron | nvm | 05:44 |
| theadmin | WXZ: Why would you ever need that? | 05:44 |
| mgmuscari | ugh | 05:44 |
| myron | with the timeout=30 line | 05:44 |
| WXZ | multiple profiles threadmin | 05:45 |
| mgmuscari | sigh... how can i watch /proc/acpi/event? | 05:45 |
| mgmuscari | acpid blocks reading it | 05:45 |
| mgmuscari | and if i kill acpid it just restarts | 05:45 |
| BlackByte | nips paste it to pastebin and I will show you | 05:45 |
| WXZ | I want some of my accounts to be on one instance of pidgin, and some on another | 05:45 |
| Dr_Willis | myron: yep. 30 is the time that gdm 'watches for' to see if it triggers the 'X goofed up' alerts I guess. | 05:45 |
| Motilon | Hello evry1: I have a problem i associate with aircrack, since ive been using it: After some 10 days of not using my wireless conn @ home, it failed 2 connect today. I didnt pay attention at first since i was interested in using airmon-ng (http://imagepaste.nullnetwork.net/viewimage.php?id=938) and (http://imagepaste.nullnetwork.net/viewimage.php?id=939). at 1st it did try 2 connect but... | 05:45 |
| Motilon | ...after deleting the network connection and creating it again; it wont even try to connect (http://imagepaste.nullnetwork.net/viewimage.php?id=940). os: ubuntu 9.10. wrlss card: Atheros AR5001. Please help. TIA... | 05:45 |
| red2kic | WXZ: pidgin have parameters. Use --pidgin --config=~/.DrWillispurple for example. | 05:45 |
| WXZ | same with tomboy, I have notes relating to job, school, home and general | 05:45 |
| Dr_Willis | WXZ: compile from source and keep the binaries in those specfic accounts home dirs.. is one way | 05:45 |
| moetunes | WXZ: man pidgin prob gives a way of starting with a profile you want | 05:46 |
| theadmin | Dr_Willis: Or just extract the .deb file to a folder :D | 05:46 |
| Ttech | How do I get the nvidia drivers support my correct resolution on my secondary display. When I add the correct resolution using nvidia-xconfig I get "X Server does not support resolution" | 05:46 |
| Dr_Willis | WXZ: but its not clear on why you are doing thois | 05:46 |
| Dr_Willis | theadmin: not sure that will work | 05:46 |
| WXZ | can I do something similar for tomboy? | 05:46 |
| theadmin | Dr_Willis: Works for me... if dependencies are there | 05:46 |
| red2kic | WXZ: Check "tomboy --help" See if it support config paths. | 05:46 |
| Dr_Willis | theadmin: hes also a little vague on why hes doing this. | 05:46 |
| theadmin | Dr_Willis: Yeah | 05:46 |
| WXZ | ok, doing this for organization purposes.. I like diff. settings for diff. purposes | 05:47 |
| Dr_Willis | WXZ: so it has nothing to do with the VERSIONS of the tools.. | 05:47 |
| myron | Dr_Willis: BTW I am getting the error on every bootup unlike your issue, but I will give this fix a shot and post to your topic with my results... | 05:47 |
| nips | BlackByte http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/KFgs1qLq | 05:47 |
| WXZ | no, for example I like pidgin to make a sound whenever I get a new hotmail message | 05:47 |
| Dr_Willis | myron: it would happen then vanish.. then comeback.. but i tend to just reboot every 4 days :) | 05:47 |
| WXZ | but not so when there's a new irc message | 05:47 |
| myron | My reboots usually happen every 2 - 3 weeks. | 05:48 |
| Dr_Willis | http://www.webupd8.org/2010/05/pidgin-27-released-with-lots-of-new.html | 05:48 |

| mgmuscari | theadmin: thanks | 05:49 |
| myron | barnabas: thanks for the help, and you too soreau | 05:49 |
| Barnabas | myron working now? | 05:49 |
| mgmuscari | theadmin: what is kacpid and how do i stop that? doesn't seem to be a service... | 05:49 |
| strix | hi to all | 05:50 |
| Dr_Willis | mgmuscari: k proberly means its 'kernel' related. why do you even think you need to stop it? | 05:50 |
| soreau | myron: Not sure how I helped but you're welcome ;) | 05:50 |
| felon | hmm | 05:50 |
| theadmin | Dr_Willis: Or kde related :/ | 05:50 |
| mgmuscari | Dr_Willis: i really want to just be able to tail -f /proc/acpi/event | 05:50 |
| * felon sits back and thinks of a question to ask | 05:50 | |
| Dr_Willis | theadmin: Not normally the case with services. :) | 05:51 |
| bill_torvalds | slt | 05:51 |
| myron | yeah, mostly, but now I need to follow Dr_Willis' post on the forums to finish fixing it. nvidia drivers work, just have to reload gdm after boot up. else low graphics mode continues. | 05:51 |
| Dr_Willis | theres proberly 4 or so differnt processes that are kXXXXXX that are kernel things. | 05:51 |
| greezmunkey | *Question* I have gnome-terminal settings the way I like, but would like to create a second, third "profile" to be used at will. 1) where are the default gnome-terminal preferences stored? | 05:51 |
| mgmuscari | Dr_Willis: actually i can tail it, but for some reason even though i stopped acpid, the power button still opens the shutdown dialog, and nothing shows in /proc/acpi/event | 05:52 |
| theadmin | mgmuscari: I think that is GNOME's doing :/ | 05:52 |
| mgmuscari | theadmin: is there any way that i can look at raw acpi events? i have these hotkeys and it's driving me nuts trying to figure out where the heck they send their events | 05:53 |
| mgmuscari | the other possibility is that they're going to the nvram considering this is a lenovo, but i don't know how to look at that | 05:53 |
| mgmuscari | cat /dev/nvram is pretty useless | 05:53 |

| owen1 | bazhang: i can do it. i'll use a usb stick | 06:44 |
| Agu10 | I have a question | 06:44 |
| greezmunkey | bazhang: seems kind of strange to me that an ubuntu server install would choke on the Ehternet port... | 06:44 |
| Agu10 | what happens if I use the same ubuntu on another computer, with other GPU ? | 06:44 |
| Agu10 | can I have 2 different configurations? | 06:44 |
| nowimproved | what do i do? | 06:44 |
| owen1 | greezmunkey: yeah, maybe i can try to reinstall see if it detects connection | 06:44 |
| owen1 | bazhang: i'll try to reinstall before troubleshooting this. | 06:45 |
| bazhang | Agu10, also 32bit or 64bit? (whichever you have) | 06:45 |
| greezmunkey | owen1: yo9u probably don't need to go that far. | 06:45 |
| owen1 | greezmunkey: ok | 06:45 |
| bazhang | owen1, let us at least see the pastebin first | 06:45 |

| scq | Hello, how can i improve sound output of any movie? | 06:46 |
| Dr_Willis | jb12: for many of us - it allready has. | 06:46 |
| Agu10 | bazhang: I want to run ubuntu in a gtx260 and also with an intel integrated GPU | 06:46 |
| bazhang | jb12, that would be a good topic for #ubuntu-offtopic not here | 06:46 |
| bazhang | Agu10, try it via live cd first to check? | 06:46 |
| Dr_Willis | scq: many media players have various audio plugins/tools/settings that can alter the sound output. VLC has a lot of featreus in this area. | 06:46 |
| Agu10 | jb12: never | 06:46 |
| jb12 | what why? | 06:47 |
| Agu10 | bazhang: I have a live usb stick | 06:47 |
| bazhang | Agu10, does the other computer allow boot from usb? | 06:47 |
| scq | Dr_Willis: does it have feature to increase sound output? | 06:47 |
| Agu10 | bazhang: I am trying to run it at home AND also at school | 06:47 |

| Dr_Willis | scq: yes | 06:47 |

| shayisaac | even my forewire also not being read | 06:47 |
| Agu10 | bazhang: yes, but I'm talking about the gpu drivers. can I have 2 different configurations? for 2 different gpus ? | 06:47 |
| Dr_Willis | !java | steppenwolf | 06:48 |
| ubottu | steppenwolf: 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) | 06:48 |
| Agu10 | or is there a problem ? | 06:48 |
| bazhang | Agu10, if there are drivers, sure no problem | 06:48 |
| scq | Dr_Willis: Kindly instruct me for that... | 06:48 |
| gogeta | Agu10: i beleve to do that you tell that gpu eatch monoter to run | 06:48 |
| Dr_Willis | steppenwolf: enable partner repo. install sun-java* packages | 06:48 |
| Agu10 | cause I have nvidia drivers at home, bazhang, and I need intel ones at school | 06:48 |
| Dr_Willis | scq: err.. the default vlc 'volume slider' lets you go to like 300% just slide it up | 06:48 |
| bazhang | Agu10, are you talking about a persistent usb stick? | 06:48 |
| Agu10 | gogeta: what? | 06:48 |
| Agu10 | bazhang: yes | 06:48 |
| steppenwolf | ok I will Thanks Dr_Willis | 06:49 |
| scq | Dr_Willis: hm..please hold on | 06:49 |
| bazhang | Agu10, well it certainly can run in a lesser graphics mode, but to have the correct 3d drivers you may need another stick | 06:49 |
| * Dr_Willis wonders why he needs to hold on.. is there going to be an earthquake? | 06:49 | |
| greezmunkey | Dr_Willis: yeah, you just hold on there pal... | 06:50 |
| greezmunkey | heh | 06:50 |
| scq | Dr_Willis: i installed VLC, now which toolbar option i should choose? | 06:51 |
| Agu10 | bazhang: so I can't use 3d drivers on 2 different gpus ? | 06:52 |
| Agu10 | bazhang: :@ | 06:52 |
| Dr_Willis | scq: err... the little volume controll widgit (with the speaker icon) lets you go all the way up to 200% | 06:52 |
| scq | Dr_Willis: the voulme slider got only till 200% | 06:52 |
| Dr_Willis | How much more do you really want? | 06:52 |
| steppenwolf | (12:48:22 AM) Dr_Willis: steppenwolf: enable partner repo. install sun-java* packages <---- that should be done on the Upadate manager? | 06:52 |
| bazhang | Agu10, I've never tried it, just making a guess--one way to find out though | 06:52 |
| scq | Dr_Willis: CAn it be incresed any further? | 06:53 |
| Dr_Willis | steppenwolf: i do it via synaptic normally | 06:53 |
| owen1 | bazhang: greezmunkey : http://pastebin.com/8G72ff8M | 06:53 |
| Dr_Willis | scq: proberly.. but if You need that muchof a boost you may be getting some nasty distortions | 06:53 |
| greezmunkey | 200% of what? That just doesn't make any sense. | 06:54 |
| bazhang | Atheros Communications Atheros AR8132 owen1 that looks to be the NIC | 06:54 |
| Dr_Willis | scq: tools -> perferances -> audio - you can set it up to 400% there. | 06:54 |
| Dr_Willis | greezmunkey: volume setting at 200% :) | 06:55 |
| Dr_Willis | greezmunkey: or it could be he has his system volume turned down also.. | 06:55 |
| greezmunkey | bazhang: check this out: http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=718751 (he he) | 06:55 |

| bajdec | hello | 07:21 |
| ym | blackshell: yeah, sudo apt-get install pysdm | 07:22 |
| ym | blackshell: type that at the command line | 07:22 |
| mostafakvd | ubuntu can ping windows but windows can not please help | 07:22 |
| ym | blackshell: then launch it with "sudo pysdm" | 07:22 |
| bajdec | hello | 07:22 |
| drclue | So drWillis: , will the libdvdcssX live on the machine with the DVD player , or the one doing the ripping? | 07:22 |
| tsuna27 | shoot and i removed the icon that had which wireless connection i was using | 07:23 |
| featherofmaat | tsusa27: i think you'll have to right click all the ones on the right and uncheck "lock to panel" first. | 07:23 |
| blackshell | ym:thanks man | 07:23 |
| jbcver1 | how can i have ubuntu startup in console mode | 07:23 |
| red2kic_ | drclue: Do the libdvdcss method on the machine with DVD player. (So it can read css stuffs). | 07:23 |
| bajdec | whick is the smallest FTP server whick works in ubuntu 8.04? sorry for my bad english | 07:23 |
| jbcver1 | like ctrl-alt F# | 07:23 |
| drclue | red2kick_: thanks for that, was not sure from my initial reading which part of the process needed the lib | 07:24 |
| ShapeShifter499 | bye all | 07:25 |
| bajdec | which is the smallest FTP server which works in ubuntu 8.04? sorry for my bad english | 07:25 |
| rydian | Bye. | 07:25 |

| bajdec | does exist any torrent application for console with WebUI? | 07:29 |
| bajdec | (I'm from Slovenia and 14 years old) | 07:30 |
| RyR88 | drclue, I preferred Empathy, much simpler in my opinion...Cleaner | 07:30 |
| MikeChelen | bajdec: deluge has console and webui, so does rtorrent | 07:30 |
| featherofmaat | i get nervous about any new im clients ever since kopete destroyed my contact lists. | 07:30 |
| drclue | featherofmaat: in my latest coding project connecting HTML5 clients to the Asterisk PBX, I tried to use Empathy for that too, but alas Empathy again was simply not ready for prime time and I used Twinkle for the softphone | 07:31 |
| theadmin | Can Ubuntu, in theory, damage the windows bootloader during the install? | 07:31 |
| red2kic | drclue: You should use the `lame` computer to create 1:1 disc copy. Then just send the *.iso to the other computer. | 07:31 |
| featherofmaat | theadmin: damage it? it replaces it entirely | 07:31 |
| Dr_Willis | theadmin: in theory - ubuntu installs GRUB overwriting the normal windows bootloader. | 07:31 |
| Dr_Willis | theadmin: unless you tell it to do otherwise. | 07:31 |
| theadmin | Dr_Willis: Uh, well, it chainloads, right? | 07:31 |
| featherofmaat | theadmin: doesn't chainload unless you set it up to. you're saying that grub won't boot into windows? | 07:32 |
| Dr_Willis | actually no it dosent chainload the 'bootloader' it boots windows directly i think. | 07:32 |
| bajdec | I was install U(buntu)-lite to USB and it was delete my GRUB on laptop :D | 07:32 |
| theadmin | What I mean is after installing Ubuntu over here and trying to boot into Windows I get something along the lines of "PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA" on a BSoD | 07:32 |
| Dr_Willis | You COULD have grub chainload a 2nd hard drive. if you wanted | 07:32 |
| bajdec | I hope you understand | 07:32 |
| Dr_Willis | theadmin: that shouldebnt be related to ubuntu at all | 07:32 |
| theadmin | Dr_Willis: Well, who knows... Windows is weird | 07:32 |
| drclue | 07:33 | |
| drclue | red2kic: I tend to in general agree with your idea of doing the base line rip on the 2004 vintage machine and reworking it on the newer equipment if that is going to work out (fingers crossed) | 07:33 |
| FloodBot4 | drclue: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 07:33 |
| above_the_clouds | part | 07:33 |
| featherofmaat | theadmin: you can get your windows bootloader back if you think that's a problem | 07:33 |
| theadmin | featherofmaat: That's what I did, used the install CD to "recover" windows (it did not overwrite GRUB, surprisingly, it just worked from there on) | 07:34 |
| drclue | Dumb flood bot | 07:34 |
| featherofmaat | theadmin: the recovery might have done something to it | 07:34 |
| featherofmaat | theadmin: i am not sure. the best way to get a windows bootloader back is not to recover. it is to get a command line from the recovery cd - so you do a ctrl-break - then do fdisk /mbr | 07:34 |
| featherofmaat | theadmin: it will totally wipe grub out, but then you can boot from an ubuntu cd and restore it | 07:35 |
| theadmin | featherofmaat: Well, it seems to work now, it's just kinda weird | 07:35 |
| === fisted_ is now known as fisted | ||
| theadmin | hmh. Recovery seemed to wipeout a recent firewall install. Maybe that was the problem. | 07:36 |

| ariefbayu | hi all | 07:39 |
| geekyogi | ubuntu 10.04 uses grub2. i wanna install xp as dual boot... any help.?! | 07:39 |

| defn | how do i install ubuntu onto another drive from my current ubuntu -- i dont have a CDRom drive. id like to just walk through the dialogs like a regular install, is this possible? | 07:39 |
| RyR88 | I actually had a friend of mine suggest I get "Screenlets" to replace conky? does anyone have any opinions for that? | 07:39 |
| theadmin | geekyogi: http://ubuntutotalnoob.blogspot.com/2010/03/getting-dual-boot-with-windows.html | 07:39 |
| Dr_Willis | RyR88: the 2 work radically diffrent. No reason you can tuse both.. but i dont like screenlets. | 07:40 |
| geekyogi | But i dont wanna spoil my current ubuntu install.! am good with my current ubuntu install.. wanna install xp on free space. | 07:40 |
| wildbat | defn, you wanna install two ubuntu on the same PC? | 07:40 |
| defn | wildbat: yes | 07:41 |
| theadmin | geekyogi: See the link I posted, it has a comprehensive guide on how to do it | 07:41 |
| defn | im doing a fresh install of 10.04 | 07:41 |
| CaptainTrek | geekyogi: you'll have issues then. Windows will overwrite the boot records | 07:41 |
| defn | im running 9.04 on this drive/partition | 07:41 |
| defn | i just want to install from the ISO onto the other drive | 07:41 |
| featherofmaat | geekyogi: it might overwrite your ubuntu altogether. i've had windows installs completely ignore ubuntu. | 07:41 |
| RyR88 | Dr_Willis, well I can't seem to find a conky theme I'm liking that fits with lucid...and I'm terribad at actually making one/editing them myself | 07:41 |
| wildbat | defn, just get the iso in ur drive a do loopmount in grub2 to boot the iso | 07:42 |
| Quan-Time | anyone know a java-decompiler i can get from synaptic ? | 07:42 |
| geekyogi | featherofmaat, but i guess masterboot records could be changed back to ubuntu | 07:42 |
| geekyogi | using live cd | 07:42 |
| Dr_Willis | RyR88: theres 1000;s of examples of them out. theres not much to a 'theme' its all about showing what info you want. | 07:42 |
| featherofmaat | geekyogi: yes, your bootloader can be easily fixed, but i am saying that the windows installer may erase ubuntu altogether | 07:43 |
| geekyogi | featherofmaat, am gonna install on free space | 07:43 |
| featherofmaat | geekyogi: if your windows installer recognizes ubuntu and gives you partitioning options then ok | 07:44 |
| featherofmaat | in my experience with xp, it doesn't ask any questions at all and just takes the whole drive over | 07:44 |
| geekyogi | all i need is a way to list windows xp on ubuntu boot record.. since.. now ubuntu uses grub2, am not sure how to fix it.. | 07:44 |
| he||phyre | geekyogi: hes saying windows may think ubuntu IS free space | 07:44 |
| CaptainTrek | geekyogi: Windows is evil, it tends to wipe out the entire drive AND boot record unless you are insane with a computer | 07:44 |

| ubottu | piju, please see my private message | 07:45 |
| featherofmaat | well, if you can get windows to install ONLY in free space - and i am not sure you will be able to - but IF you can, then just install grub from a livecd, boot into ubuntu and do sudo update-grub | 07:45 |
| geekyogi | CaptainTrek, am listening. But have to do this.. Need Windows xp.. for playing games. :P | 07:45 |
| piju | red2kic ok | 07:46 |
| geekyogi | featherofmaat, have to try tat | 07:46 |
| geekyogi | sudo update-grub | 07:46 |
| CaptainTrek | geekyogi: okay, but BACK UP EVERYTHING you wish to keep from Ubuntu first | 07:46 |
| CaptainTrek | geekyogi: trust me, back it all up first. | 07:46 |
| featherofmaat | geekyogi: i am not endorsing this, for the record | 07:46 |
| featherofmaat | back everything up | 07:46 |
| geekyogi | CaptainTrek, oh k | 07:46 |
| featherofmaat | i do not trust windows installers | 07:46 |
| geekyogi | Ya.. will make backups | 07:46 |

| featherofmaat | dr_willis and chouchou: i have a suspicion that this is based on stored keys. there's a WPA or WEP and the user account doesn't have the network manager set up correctly. | 08:04 |
| Dr_Willis | chouchou: by default theres the 'inital' user that has sudo rights. You re saying that account you made at install cant access the internet? | 08:04 |
| Dr_Willis | chouchou: this is wireless networking you are refering to? | 08:04 |
| chouchou | no, LAN | 08:05 |
| hyde-d | dr_willis then how do I fix this? | 08:05 |
| featherofmaat | chouchou: that's weird. if an ethernet cable is in your port, it should work. | 08:05 |

| hyde-d | hellfire: well, im on text based... | 08:05 |
| he||phyre | featherofmaat: there goes the wep theory | 08:05 |
| hyde-d | no gui... so in this sense a driver messed soemthing up | 08:05 |
| Dr_Willis | hyde-d: start with the 'startx' command and look for error messages | 08:05 |
| featherofmaat | right, i know | 08:05 |
| chouchou | and for assurance, my windows PC is browsing well the internet, | 08:05 |
| theadmin | before 10.04, the user-switcher-applet displayed my "Real Name", now, the MeMenu displays my username. How to fix? | 08:06 |

| Diverdude | i have installed a program using a .deb package. When i run the installed program it says there is an update available, and it fetches a .rpm package. However, i dont know what to do with this package in order to apply the update. Any suggestions? | 08:07 |
| maxxist | so I am trying to do a netboot on a macbookpro(with a dead superdrive). I know the netboot works(I have booted vm's in virtualbox off of it.) however when I hold down 'N' on bootup it brings up a picture of the earth, and flashes it repeatedly. but goes nowhere. any suggestions? the netboot install is ubuntu 10.04.

| chouchou | Dr_Willis: Network unreacheable | 08:07 |
| Dr_Willis | Diverdude: dont worry about the updates if they come in rpm.. perhaps they will have a deb at the download site for the app you may want to use. | 08:07 |

| greezmunkey | he||phyre: #ubuntu-offtopic... | 08:09 |
| Dr_Willis | RyR88: they could be differnt sensors on the same cpu. different mb/cpud have differnt sensors. | 08:10 |
| Dr_Willis | some could be under the cpu, some could be on the cpu. | 08:10 |
| he||phyre | greezmunkey: i cant learn crap in offtopic.. lol | 08:10 |
| Dr_Willis | could be sensors on different parts of the cpu | 08:10 |
| defn | kernel /casper/vmlinuz boot=casper root=/dev/ram ramdisk_size=1048576 rw <---is this line still the same for 10.04? | 08:10 |
| greezmunkey | he||phyre: ok! | 08:10 |
| RyR88 | Dr_Willis, so basically, they're all actually my CPU sensors? | 08:10 |
| featherofmaat | chouchou: dumb question, but are you sure about your access point> | 08:10 |
| MACscr_lappy | is it me or does ubuntu have piss poor support for multiple monitors and ati drivers | 08:11 |
| wildbat | defn, think so | 08:11 |
| MACscr_lappy | or more i guess that the ati drivers suck | 08:11 |
| theadmin | MACscr_lappy: Right. | 08:11 |
| greezmunkey | MACscr_lappy: it's not you | 08:11 |
| Dr_Willis | RyR88: yes. | 08:11 |
| MACscr_lappy | how could something so basic and common these days be so crappy to setup? | 08:11 |
| Dr_Willis | MACscr_lappy: ati has poor linux support. | 08:11 |
| gotwig | hi | 08:11 |
| theadmin | I'm the only user with an ATI graphical card I know in the entire world which has it actually WORKING, out of the box! | 08:11 |
| Fudge | lmao | 08:12 |
| owen1 | bazhang: after rebbot i had to run 'sudo dhcp eth0'. how to tell ubuntu to use dhcp automaticaly? | 08:12 |
| he||phyre | RyR88: my amd quad shows as 0,1,2,3 | 08:12 |
| greezmunkey | theadmin: 800x600? | 08:12 |
| Dr_Willis | ati support is better then some other video chipsets at least. :) | 08:12 |
| theadmin | greezmunkey: 1280x800, why? | 08:12 |
| gotwig | theadmin: o. | 08:12 |
| MACscr_lappy | theadmin: mine works out of the box if i want 2 of my 3 monitors working and 2 of those mirroring each other | 08:12 |
| dzlterm | can anyone help me with an install error? im installing an SNES emulator from source | 08:12 |
| greezmunkey | theadmin: just wondering what your secret is, that's all. | 08:12 |
| MACscr_lappy | dzlterm: this really isnt the place for that | 08:12 |
| chouchou | featherofmaat: I am pretty sure otherwise I won't be connected here, on windows, I have installed Ubuntu on a Vmware virtual machine, | 08:12 |
| gotwig | is it easy to set up 2 graphic cards from nvidia working together ? | 08:12 |
| Dr_Willis | chouchou: chedk the output of 'ifconfig' see if your wired nic has an actual inet addr: for its ip#. | 08:13 |
| wildbat | dzlterm, why don't install from apt | 08:13 |
| theadmin | greezmunkey: Well, no idea :D It just worked. Maybe because it's a fairly old card (ten years old, just like the lappy itself) | 08:13 |
| chouchou | ok, , | 08:13 |
| dzlterm | its not in the Repos wildbat | 08:13 |
| Dr_Willis | chouchou: vmware? You are trouble shooting a linux system thats not getting networking inside vmware you mean? | 08:13 |

| wildbat | dzlterm, oh it was zsnes then | 08:14 |
| dzlterm | what could be causing this error? | 08:14 |
| chouchou | well for the past 5 days, when installed, on vmware I used it sucessfuly, and it start with the terminal so I do login with the root account there before starting to work | 08:14 |
| wildbat | dzlterm, get build-essential | 08:14 |
| bobbyyu | Transmission 1.75 keeps freezing on my Ubuntu! | 08:14 |
| he||phyre | my ati never gave me issues 1280x800 | 08:14 |
| dzlterm | can i get that thru apt-get? | 08:15 |
| chouchou | but today, instead of the terminal, it s starting with the GNOME with my default username in to it | 08:15 |
| theadmin | dzlterm: Yeah | 08:15 |
| Dr_Willis | chouchou: vmware uses some sort of tunnling network device to get to the actual windows machine to get to the internet. so it may be a vmware setting issue | 08:15 |
| chouchou | hence the begining of the apocalypse | 08:15 |
| wildbat | dzlterm, yes | 08:15 |
| Dr_Willis | chouchou: if you dont want GDM to start. then disable the gdm service. | 08:15 |
| chouchou | how ? | 08:15 |
| Dr_Willis | chouchou: gdm startiong shouldent be affecting the networking at all | 08:15 |
| theadmin | chouchou: sudo mv /etc/init/gdm.conf /etc/init/gdm.disabled | 08:16 |
| willberg | Hi everyone; I've just installed Ubuntu 10.04 LTS and I am trying to change the hostname; but /etc/hostname doesn't exist. If I create a file there with the intended hostname then hostname -f complains at me. | 08:16 |
| Dr_Willis | chouchou: if you just want shell access - you could just install the sshd on the ubuntu in vmware, and use putty from the windows machine to connect to it also. | 08:16 |
| dzlterm | wildbat, can i just enter Make again from the same terminal? or do i have to start the whole process over? | 08:17 |
| albert24 | hi, how do i change the gdm theme in lucid? | 08:17 |
| albert24 | things are very different to before | 08:17 |
| theadmin | dzlterm: Should work | 08:17 |
| dzlterm | k | 08:17 |
| theadmin | albert24: use gdm2setup | 08:17 |
| wildbat | dzlterm, ya just make | 08:17 |
| bobbyyu | I have a Transmission problem: should I take it up to a Transmission help channel? | 08:17 |
| Dr_Willis | albert24: short answer. you dont easially. Theres some tweaks you can do --> http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-do-you-change-the-boot-splash-screen-image-for-10-04-lucid-lynx.html | 08:17 |
| Dr_Willis | albert24: thers some 3rd party tools that can help tweak it also. | 08:18 |
| albert24 | why have things changed so much for 10 | 08:18 |
| albert24 | it's like many steps back in 10 | 08:18 |
| Dr_Willis | albert24: gdm has been totally redone. thats the reason for the gdm changes. | 08:18 |
| Dr_Willis | albert24: and it was the gnome devs that did it. | 08:18 |
| wildbat | willberg, is your hostname file own by root? | 08:19 |
| albert24 | bah :( | 08:19 |
| * Dr_Willis dosent worry about a gdm login screen when it is only there for 10 sec. or less | 08:19 | |
| greezmunkey | There ya go. | 08:19 |
| Dr_Willis | I perfer the 30 sec boot time.. to gdm theming features :) | 08:19 |
| ARandomNub | Hey. I'm getting a weird problem with Wubi, can anyone help? =D | 08:19 |
| albert24 | gdmsetup doesn't allow me to change theme or anything | 08:19 |
| willberg | wildbat: it doesn't exist! | 08:19 |
| dzlterm | http://pastebin.com/sN1maHcV | 08:19 |
| Dr_Willis | albert24: theres some 3rd party apps that let you change SOME gdm settings. but its not as themeable as the old gdm | 08:19 |
| wildbat | willberg, create it withour sudo | 08:20 |
| wildbat | willberg, create it with* our sudo | 08:20 |

| albert24 | Dr_Willis: sucks! i like some of the new gnome, it feels much nicer than the gnome used in ubuntu 8 | 08:20 |
| willberg | using sudo su? Because I'd get permission denied otherwise | 08:20 |
| ARandomNub | Hey. I'm getting a weird problem with Wubi, can anyone help? =D | 08:20 |
| MACscr_lappy | should i honestly give up on getting my 3 monitors to work with ubuntu? I mean, if its not possible, there is no reason for me to waste my time with ubuntu | 08:20 |
| Dr_Willis | albert24: I dont bend too far over backwards for gdm themes.. I change the wallpaper and perhaps the fonts/colors and thats it. | 08:21 |
| Dr_Willis | MACscr_lappy: depends on the video cards/chipset | 08:21 |
| Dr_Willis | MACscr_lappy: i had 3 monitors working with my nvidia setup. | 08:21 |
| MACscr_lappy | i havent had a nvidia card since maybe the gforce 2 | 08:22 |

| classvoid | hwhat - i love my geforce 7900gs slied ;) | 08:22 |
| digiProX_x | c++ is so slow to compile | 08:23 |
| MACscr_lappy | wildbat: what would MS have to do with ati's linux drivers? | 08:23 |
| ARandomNub | When I install Wubi, it downloads the necessary files and completes without error, but when I go to boot i up, it goes through the installing but fails and errors saying; "No root file system is defined". :( | 08:23 |
| Dr_Willis | chouchou: you dont even see info for a 'eth0' or 'eth0' | 08:23 |
| chouchou | ? | 08:23 |
| greezmunkey | digiProX_x: put the compile in the background ?? | 08:23 |
| Dr_Willis | chouchou: like this.. -> | 08:23 |

| chouchou | ok | 08:23 |
| wildbat | willberg, just reboot | 08:24 |
| classvoid | amd owns ati - and ati keeps stopping support for linux drivers to dump it to open source -which is both good and bad | 08:24 |
| MACscr_lappy | wildbat: lol, your are kidding me, right? rofl | 08:24 |
| willberg | wildbat: I did :-) | 08:24 |
| digiProX_x | its just much slower then compiling c | 08:24 |
| Dr_Willis | It sould be GOOD if ati actually gave some specs/info to the Open source driver makers.. | 08:24 |
| xorwhy | When I reboot or start my computerr, often times (about 3/4) I'm confronted with the low graphics mode prompt. If I selected "Reconfigure Graphics" and then "Create new configuration", then lastly "Restart X" it will sometimes fix it for that session, other times not. | 08:24 |
| wildbat | willberg, your hostname should changed | 08:24 |

| classvoid | like my windows xp nvidia drivers that are constantly being updated to add support sli for games like assassins creed 2 etc -don't ask me why the game devs don't do it lol | 08:25 |

| classvoid | to xorwhy - > I have that alot since the update - but I'm running nvidia's newest drivers off the site | 08:25 |
| greezmunkey | ARandomNub: what's you problem | 08:25 |
| classvoid | everytime ubuntu updates something in the kernel i gotta reinstall em | 08:25 |
| ARandomNub | When I install Wubi, it downloads the necessary files and completes without error, but when I go to boot i up, it goes through the installing but fails and errors saying; "No root file system is defined". :( | 08:26 |
| ARandomNub | *it | 08:26 |
| xorwhy | I am using the nvidia blob. The earlier blob does not have this problem, but the performance is reduced by a half at least | 08:26 |
| willberg | ubottu: wildbat: That's what I've been trying to do. Done it a million times before with no problems. I change /etc/hosts and /etc/hostname. Only today, /etc/hostname didn't exist before I first created it. And creating it causes an error message from hostname -f, and not creating it, my default hostname is used | 08:26 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 08:26 |
| albert24 | oh well, thanks everyone | 08:26 |
| xorwhy | classvoid: I was going to try that next, so you installed the from-website version and are still experiencing problems? | 08:26 |
| wildbat | willberg, creating it then reboot should do the job, no ? | 08:27 |
| xorwhy | classvoid: Oh good, I'll try that. Thanks! | 08:27 |
| willberg | wildbat: That's what I thought! But nope! | 08:28 |
| greezmunkey | g'night peeps | 08:28 |
| ARandomNub | greezmunkey: can I PM? | 08:28 |
| ARandomNub | -_- | 08:28 |
| xorwhy | classvoid: Yeah I've installed that way before, using less user friendly distro's. | 08:28 |
| wildbat | willberg, no idea then ~ | 08:29 |
| wildbat | willberg, may be boot to recovery mode and try the process and see ~ | 08:29 |
| ARandomNub | Anyone: Does anyone know why I get "No root file system is defined" using Wubi? | 08:29 |
| willberg | wildbat: Are there any particular permissions that need to be set on /etc/hostname? | 08:29 |
| wildbat | willberg, root: root 644 in my box | 08:30 |
| moetunes | ARandomNub: did you make one - or were given the oppurtunity to? | 08:30 |
| ARandomNub | moetunes: No. I'm using Wubi, I basically selected which HDD I wanted it in, the size (30gb) and my language. | 08:31 |
| moetunes | k | 08:31 |
| moetunes | ARandomNub: then you did define a root fs | 08:31 |
| willberg | wildbat: This is so weird; the DNS is set nicely so that from the outside it resolves okay, i.e. using dig -x MY_IP I get the hostname I want | 08:32 |
| wildbat | ARandomNub, i have that problem alot in 8.10 wubi be4 ~ you have to mount the img file by yourself :< | 08:32 |
| wildbat | willberg, jsut try to change in single user mode w/o the net ~ and see | 08:33 |
| ARandomNub | wildbat: It worked when I had Vista, but I'm on Win7 now and it just fails =[ | 08:33 |
| ARandomNub | moetunes: it's on my spare 500 GB D: drive, where it was last time (when I had Vista) | 08:33 |
| willberg | wildbat: It's a VPS so I don't actually have physical access to the machine XD | 08:33 |
| wildbat | ARandomNub, most likly windows changed the partitions, so the UUID changed. that coz the mount fail. | 08:34 |
| chouchou | Dr_Willis: the command you sent to me, I was told that location is a directory | 08:34 |
| chouchou | I m confused | 08:34 |
| moetunes | ARandomNub: I've never done wubi - was just asking an obvious question to get others interested maybe | 08:34 |
| ARandomNub | wildbat: Anyway to fix it or any kind of work-around? | 08:34 |
| wildbat | willberg, ochie ~ no idea ~ sorry, let me know if you have a fix i would love to know~ | 08:35 |
| ARandomNub | moetunes: it's cool, I'll just format the drive, download and burn it to a CD. It'll work that way, I hope. | 08:35 |
| owen1 | every rebbot i have to run 'sudo dhcp eth0' to have internet connection. how to tell ubuntu to do it for me? | 08:35 |
| wildbat | ARandomNub, just manually mount the root img file. | 08:35 |
| ARandomNub | wildbat: I'm not sure how lol =D | 08:35 |
| moetunes | ARandomNub: make sure to check the iso and cd once burnt | 08:35 |
| moetunes | !md5 | 08:35 |
| ubottu | 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 | 08:35 |
| wildbat | ARandomNub, consult the internet with munt command and locate the img file from the grub config file. | 08:36 |
| wildbat | ARandomNub, that y i didn't use WUbi after 8.10 ;p | 08:37 |
| ARandomNub | wildbat: well, at the moment the only GRUB folder is in "D:\ubuntu\disks\boot\grub" and it's currently empty. | 08:37 |
| ARandomNub | Oh, nvm I'm an idiot lol | 08:38 |
| wildbat | hidden ;p | 08:38 |

| wildbat | ARandomNub, yes | 08:38 |

| sje46 | and then uninstalling then installing it. But it still can't open | 08:41 |
| Turicas | Hi people. I'm in Ubuntu 10.04 amd64 and installed virtualbox-ose but I can't run 64bit virtual machines. Only 32bit options are shown on machine creation. I've tried virtualbox-3.1 from Sun's repository but it's the same. What I should do to correct this? | 08:42 |
| willberg | Turicas: What processor is in your host (real) machine? | 08:42 |
| owen1 | what package do i need so i can have a wireless network plugin on my panel? | 08:42 |
| Jymmm | 486DX33 | 08:42 |
| owen1 | (xfce) | 08:42 |
| nishanth | does anyone know if there is an alternative to using microsoft media server plugin? | 08:43 |
| Turicas | willberg, Intel(R) Celeron(R) CPU E1500 @ 2.20GHz | 08:43 |
| Turicas | willberg, I also have ArchLinux64 here and can run 64bit machines there fine | 08:43 |
| willberg | Tuicas: I don't think that CPU supports hardware virtualisation - which is needed for 64-bit guest operating systems. This is seperate from the actual CPU being 64-bit | 08:44 |
| The_Letter_M | So I think I installed the Ubuntu One packages, how do I get it running? | 08:45 |
| dunas | Is the FGLRX driver usable and stable or should I avoid it still? | 08:45 |
| willberg | Turicas: For instance my AMD 620 has 'AMD-V', and intel has something similar. Only newer CPU's support it, and it has a bunch of instructions for virtualisations. Take a look in your (real) bios and see if there is anything like that - but I'm pretty sure no Celerons support it. I'm sorry! | 08:45 |
| chx | hi. is it possible to put the boot partition on a HDD then after booting completely switch off said HDD? (I want to put the system on a memory card.) | 08:46 |
| Turicas | willberg, the question is not about my processor supporting virtualization. the problem is that on ArchLinux it works! | 08:47 |
| costaeye | when I try to do a backspace in a terminal session it doesn't work and I get garbage characters | 08:47 |
| The_Letter_M | Chx, Parted Magic does that with a CD. Once it's done booting, it ejects the CD | 08:47 |
| The_Letter_M | However, I'm not the one to ask about how to do it. | 08:48 |
| chx | hm, nice. i will check then how to do it. | 08:48 |
| wildbat | willberg, so you fix that? just wrong format in hosts @@? | 08:48 |
| chx | i am not too eager on using a HDD again. with this current laptop i totally got unused to it but i am getting a pocketable laptop from my workplace and it has a hdd in it. i cant complain tho, that vaio p is sweet. | 08:48 |
| Canti_ | What's one of the best MD5 hash crackers for parallel implementation? | 08:49 |
| ARandomNub | @All: Thanks for the help :] | 08:49 |
| willberg | Turicas: Then that's nuts! Here: http://ark.intel.com/VTList.aspx Says that the 1500 doesn't support VT-x, which I'm pretty sure is required for 64-bit guests. | 08:50 |
| willberg | wildbat: Yep! The /etc/hosts was in one particular format when the machine was first installed; so I continued to use that format (IP HOSTNAME) but I needed it in (IP FULLY_QUALIFIED_HOSTNAME HOSTNAME) format | 08:51 |

| shayisaac | PAUL : okay | 08:58 |
| shayisaac | PAUL : actually, i still keep trying to make my internal webcam work | 08:58 |
| moetunes | Tully: are they all files or some dirs you want to move? | 08:58 |
| shayisaac | PAUL : it is SERTEK brand | 08:58 |
| chx | shayisaac: lsusb | 08:58 |
| chx | shayisaac: that will help | 08:58 |
| shayisaac | PAUL : sounds so cheap - but that what my laptop has | 08:58 |
| chx | shayisaac: slapping a sertek sticker on the cam is not much.... | 08:59 |
| shayisaac | CHX : i've done that already and it is not listed | 08:59 |
| phil_ | Hi, i'm a new user of Ubuntu. I have a pretty good level of computer knowledge. Ubuntu Lucid was my first experience installing an OS other than windows. I installed Lucid alongside Win7 on the same hard drive. However, recently, Ubuntu needed some updates. I updated, and now i have 2 different versions of ubuntu in my grub boot loader list. How do I lose the older one the correct way? | 08:59 |
| chx | shayisaac: o_o | 08:59 |
| Tully | moetunes: i want to move the files from /home/blah/Downloads/phpbb3 to /var/www/rawr/ | 08:59 |
| chx | shayisaac: *blink* | 08:59 |
| chx | shayisaac: are you sure you plugged in the cam :) ? | 08:59 |
| sklav | hey guys | 08:59 |
| shayisaac | CHX : hahaha ... it is built in | 08:59 |
| Tully | moetunes: but JUST the contents of the files, not the phpbb3 folder | 08:59 |
| shayisaac | CHX : :) | 08:59 |
| sklav | any developers around | 08:59 |
| shayisaac | CHX : i do have another external one - but it is driverless | 09:00 |
| Aboood99 | Hi | 09:00 |
| sklav | seems new ubuntu has issue with evolution wizard | 09:00 |
| moetunes | Tully: you can use a for loop - for f in /home/blah/Downloads/phpbb3/*; do mv -v $f /var/www/rawr/; done | 09:00 |
| hotmonkeyluv | phil_, there is a toolkit in the settings that is like startup manager or something, check that out. | 09:00 |
| shayisaac | CHX : do u have any idea beb? the external webcam is china made | 09:00 |
| Omen_20 | phil_, thats probably just a kernel version. Doesnt harm anything to keep the older versions. | 09:00 |
| abstrakt | !flash | 09:00 |
| ubottu | To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - See also !Restricted and !Gnash | 09:00 |
| hotmonkeyluv | phil_, you may not want to delete those entries though, it can be nice to have a different kernel to boot with if you accidentally mess up the current one, | 09:00 |
| chx | shayisaac: what notebook is that | 09:01 |
| Jordan_U | phil_: When there is a kernel upgrade Ubuntu keeps the previous kernel in case there is a problem with the new one, what you are seeing is the menu entry for the older kernel. You can remove the old kernel versions in System > Administration > Synaptic Package Manager | 09:01 |
| regenkind | Hello everybody, maybe this is a well known problem with Lucid. I can't in/decrease the brightness of my (updated) ubuntu anymore. Tried smartdimmer -d manually, but i only get an "init_nvclock() failed!". I use an sony vaio fw31m. Brightness worked fine with 9.10. /proc/acpi/video/VGA/LCD/brightness says not supported. I can use ATI Catalyst to change brightness / gamma factor, but that is not very satisfying.... any ideas? | 09:01 |
| shayisaac | CHX : thats quite embarassing ... it is local brand in MALAYSIA - FTEC | 09:01 |
| moza | Tully, did you manage? | 09:02 |
| Tully | moza: Yeah mate thanks | 09:02 |
| eemeli | Where is my problem, because i cant set up personal filesharing? | 09:02 |
| Tully | moetunes: Cheers man, working fine | 09:02 |
| moetunes | Tully: np :] | 09:02 |
| owen1 | i can't see my any wireless network. how make ubuntu 'discover' my wireless? | 09:03 |
| eemeli | it says that there is not right packages installed | 09:03 |
| owen1 | (iwconfig shows me wlan0) | 09:03 |
| shayisaac | anyone? | 09:04 |
| regenkind | ? | 09:04 |
| shayisaac | CHX : so ... u have any idea? | 09:04 |
| zhangren | hallo? | 09:04 |
| konraddo | hi | 09:04 |
| konraddo | does Linux support matrix raid? | 09:04 |
| shayisaac | if not so ... then, anyone have the idea of installing my external firewire card? | 09:04 |
| regenkind | any video experts around? | 09:04 |
| chx | shayisaac: none | 09:04 |
| zhangren | anyone? | 09:04 |
| shayisaac | it seems that my ubuntu doesnt recognoze that | 09:04 |
| konraddo | :> | 09:05 |
| chx | shayisaac: you might need a special kernel module | 09:05 |
| mshadle | anyone know why when i try to use mdadm to create a raidset, it says "device or resource busy" ? they're not in use anywhere. i literally just formatted them. i even tried rebooting | 09:05 |
| moetunes | moza: keep it in the channel pls | 09:05 |
| moza | ok moetunes, sorry. | 09:05 |
| moetunes | np | 09:05 |
| chx | shayisaac: but maybe | 09:06 |
| andril | anyone using the Dell XPS M1210? | 09:06 |
| moetunes | what were you asking/ | 09:06 |
| chx | shayisaac: pastebin ls -lR /proc/acpi | 09:06 |
| chx | shayisaac: or just ls -R /proc/acpi , does not matter | 09:06 |
| blankthemuffin | I've just messed with the partitioning of my lucid install from a live cd, and I'm wondering what's the best way to update grub2 so that it recognises these changes. | 09:07 |
| wildbat | !grub2 | blankthemuffin | 09:07 |
| regenkind | Hello everybody, maybe this is a well known problem with Lucid. I can't in/decrease the brightness of my (updated) ubuntu anymore.

I can use ATI Catalyst to change brightness / gamma factor, but that is not very satisfying.... any ideas? | 09:07 |
| moza | moetunes, Just wondered if the shorter version mv /folder1/* /folder2/ had any problems? Is there anything that would make it worse to use than your for loop? It seemed to work with test/dumb folders and files. | 09:07 |
| Jordan_U | blankthemuffin: Re-install grub following this guide: http://grub.enbug.org/Grub2LiveCdInstallGuide | 09:07 |
| hotmonkeyluv | phil_, Did that work for ya? | 09:08 |
| shayisaac | CHX : do i need to do that in TERMINAL .. am i rite? | 09:08 |
| blankthemuffin | do I really need to re-install it, seems a bit drastic when all that needs to happen is a partition number change. | 09:08 |
| chx | shayisaac: yeah. alternatively you can run acpidump | 09:08 |
| moetunes | moza: can't think why it wouldn't work - just never tried it - I like for loops 'cause you can test for dirs etc | 09:08 |
| chx | shayisaac: and just for completeness sake dmidecode | 09:08 |
| shayisaac | CHX : i need to check that program in my software center? | 09:09 |
| d3javu | hi all how can i restart gnome panel ?? | 09:09 |
| ubottu | blankthemuffin: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 | 09:09 |
| shayisaac | CHX : acpidump | 09:09 |
| moza | ok moetunes, thanks. | 09:09 |
| Nature75 | regenkind: You can change it manually. | 09:09 |
| chx | shayisaac: just ls -R /proc/acpi to begin | 09:09 |
| moetunes | np moza | 09:09 |
| shayisaac | CHX : owh ... ok | 09:09 |
| ariefbayu | hi all | 09:09 |
| wildbat | stupid ubottu lagging big this time | 09:09 |
| ariefbayu | I try to compile summoners wars (www.sumwars.org) but I got error: No package 'vorbisfile' found. I do apt-get cache search vorbisfile and found no 'dev' on it. How do I install it? http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/c6M9FmTf | 09:09 |
| FloodBot4 | ariefbayu: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 09:09 |

| d3javu | killall gnome-panel | 09:10 |
| chx | why, a list of things that acpi sees | 09:10 |
| regenkind | Yes, i can change manually using ATI Catalyst. But no Fn Key, Powermanagement or sun applet functionality. | 09:10 |
| Nature75 | regenkind: sudo chmod 646 /proc/acpi/video/IGFX/LCD/brightness | 09:10 |

| shayisaac | CHX : sorry ... this is just my 7th day on ubuntu totally | 09:11 |
| shayisaac | CHX : emm ... i think i can do that | 09:11 |
| chx | shayisaac: i am sorry too for not being able to help more -- at 1:11am i am not sure i can help you much longer | 09:11 |

| Raptors | Hey guy, I think I might get a ATI card. Did the ATI drivers for linux get better? | 09:15 |
| Raptors | As they as good as nvidia yet? | 09:16 |
| shayisaac | CHX : emm ... when u say pastebin ... emm .. where is this pastebin anyway? | 09:16 |
| chx | Raptors: al video drivers suck for Linux, | 09:16 |
| chx | shayisaac: maybe check what the bot told you above? | 09:16 |
| seval_91 | "Ubuntu 10.04 updates" writes that there are OpenJDK updates. But i do not have installed OpenJDK, I have Sun Java on my system. (i am sure). Is there a problem on my system ? | 09:16 |
| moetunes | chx: wrong | 09:16 |
| Raptors | I remeber hearing they got better | 09:16 |
| iDope | Raptors: well not exactly as good as nvidia's yet but they sure as hell got a bit better | 09:16 |
| chx | moetunes: wrong? | 09:17 |
| chx | moetunes: when did they stop sucking and which one? | 09:17 |
| iDope | im using a mobility Radeon HD 4670 on linux.. | 09:17 |
| moetunes | chx: my intel works great | 09:17 |
| chx | moetunes: my intel works great too but that's not a video card, that's a joke | 09:17 |
| Raptors | I might get a 5770 | 09:17 |
| iDope | but I guess I like the opensource drivers better because they let KMS work | 09:17 |
| Raptors | are the drivers for that any good? | 09:17 |
| moetunes | chx: bitter much? | 09:17 |
| chx | moetunes: ye | 09:17 |
| Jimmio | chx: Dead wrong. Nvidia proprietary drivers have no issues that I'm aware of. And the Noveau (sp?) drivers for 2D worked great. (10.04) | 09:18 |
| chx | moetunes: i will need to install Windows on July 27 and I am not looking forward to it. I have been free for almost six years of Windows | 09:18 |
| iDope | Raptors: depends.. if you are going to be dual booting and playing games on Win then its a good choice (price/performance) | 09:18 |
| iDope | but if you are going to be on linux most of the time. I would still reccommend an nvidia. | 09:18 |
| Raptors | I want to play games on linux | 09:18 |
| seval_91 | "Ubuntu 10.04 updates" writes that there are OpenJDK updates. But i do not have installed OpenJDK, I have Sun Java on my system. (i am sure). Is there a problem on my system ? | 09:18 |
| moetunes | chx: sux to be you then :] | 09:18 |
| chx | but , maybe -- how's StarCraft 2 on Linux these days? | 09:19 |
| regenkind | @Nature75: i could try to uninstall the ati driver and hope for the best... but it worked well in 9.10 and i'm not very familiar with the video properties of linux systems | 09:19 |
| moetunes | no windows in my home... | 09:19 |
| iDope | the latest drivers worked fine in 3D for me | 09:19 |
| Raptors | I want to get it to play Amnesia when it comes out | 09:19 |
| Raptors | on linux | 09:19 |
| Raptors | and SC on win | 09:19 |
| Raptors | SC II | 09:19 |
| FloodBot4 | Raptors: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 09:19 |
| Raptors | http://www.amnesiagame.com/#main | 09:19 |
| iDope | but their glxgears performance was a bit odd ( i got around 4000 gears/5 secs) which is quite bad | 09:19 |
| iDope | on the other hand the opensource drivers give great 2D performance | 09:20 |
| Nature75 | Wait a second... I'll give you help. | 09:20 |
| Raptors | Amnesia isn't 2d | 09:20 |
| Jimmio | I get ~90000/5 seconds, iDope | 09:20 |
| moetunes | iDope: make the glxgears widow smaller and it will improve | 09:20 |
| Raptors | It need really good graphics card | 09:20 |
| regenkind | thanks, very kind of you. | 09:20 |
| moetunes | s/widow/window | 09:20 |
| seval_91 | "Ubuntu 10.04 updates" writes that there are OpenJDK updates. But i do not have installed OpenJDK, I have Sun Java on my system. (i am sure). Is there a problem on my system ? | 09:20 |
| chx | I have got a used 9600GSO card for StarCraft 2, so there is a chance it might work., http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=19376 looking at this page, it's... interesting. says "garbage, gold, silver" and "playing was not tested" | 09:20 |
| iDope | Jimmio what card do you have? | 09:21 |
| Jimmio | iDope: EVGA Nvidia GeForce 9800 GTX+ | 09:21 |
| Raptors | ok from what I read here ATI doesn't have good drivers :( | 09:21 |
| iDope | there you have it | 09:21 |
| iDope | im getting around 6000 at the moment | 09:22 |
| iDope | thats the max ive managed | 09:22 |
| shayisaac | okay | 09:22 |
| Raptors | What is the 5770s equvilant by nvidia? | 09:22 |
| shayisaac | i've just have another question here | 09:22 |
| shayisaac | about folders under my users folder | 09:22 |
| shayisaac | if that is the name | 09:23 |
| Jimmio | I've had a friend of mine's system totally die from installing ATI drivers on Windows. Needed a reinstall (of Windows). ATI drivers have historically sucked out loud. | 09:23 |
| shayisaac | i dun really know how to explain | 09:23 |
| iDope | Raptors: what is the 5770's price? | 09:23 |
| shayisaac | but anyone - do u know whether the folders such as alsa under my shayisaac folder | 09:23 |
| Raptors | ~150 | 09:23 |
| shayisaac | can i just delete those folders? | 09:23 |
| Raptors | for 1GB version | 09:23 |
| shayisaac | will it effect installed program? | 09:23 |
| seval_91 | "Ubuntu 10.04 updates" writes that there are OpenJDK updates. But i do not have installed OpenJDK, I have Sun Java on my system. (i am sure). Is there a problem on my system ? | 09:24 |
| Jimmio | shayisaac: Don't delete the .whatever files or folders. They're hidden for good reason. They're settings and such for programs. | 09:24 |
| moetunes | shayisaac: are they dot files - do they begin with a . | 09:24 |
| Guest83209 | how can i find a modalias for input event9 | 09:25 |
| iDope | Raptors: I guess performance wise the Nvidia GTX 275 is close | 09:25 |
| shayisaac | MOE : lemme check | 09:25 |
| Guest83209 | so i can use my cheapo remote .that registers as a keyboard in lirc | 09:26 |
| iDope | its 896MB i think | 09:26 |
| Guest83209 | using devinput as the driver | 09:26 |
| shayisaac | MOE : it just named "alsa-driver-1.0.16" and 3 more folders such as that | 09:26 |
| The_Letter_M | Hello | 09:26 |
| shayisaac | MOE : i juz trying to tide up my folders | 09:26 |
| The_Letter_M | Is there a package I need to install to make the MeMenu available? | 09:27 |
| shayisaac | JIM : emm ... they are not hidden | 09:27 |
| blankthemuffin | The_Letter_M, it'll be installed by default on a lucid desktop install | 09:27 |
| shayisaac | anyway - my internal webcam just now is ACER SERTEK model | 09:28 |
| moetunes | shayisaac: you can type the first three letters of a nick then hit the tab button - you must have d/loaded those files? | 09:28 |
| shayisaac | moetunes, hohohoho .. ok | 09:28 |
| shayisaac | moetunes, got it now ... cool! | 09:29 |
| moetunes | there you go shayisaac :] | 09:29 |
| shayisaac | moetunes, emm ... yep ... it was either tar or deb files that i've installed last week | 09:29 |
| shayisaac | moetunes, i've found it under software center ... the description looks fine and i installed it | 09:29 |
| moetunes | shayisaac: if they have been unpacked/used you can delete them no worries | 09:30 |
| seval_91 | "Ubuntu 10.04 updates" writes that there are OpenJDK updates. But i do not have installed OpenJDK, I have Sun Java on my system. (i am sure). Is there a problem on my system ? | 09:30 |
| shayisaac | moetunes, yeah ... thats the word ... i unpacked them. some kind like RAR files in win-ninety-crap | 09:30 |
| moetunes | shayisaac: delete 'em then | 09:31 |
| nickd | Morning all, I'm having problems with the ubuntu hd-media installer. I followed the instructions and prepared a stick which boots and loads di but when it gets to detecting a bunch of packages I end up with a whole lot of 'Unable to find restricted/debian-installer/binary-amd64/Packages in /cdrom/lucid/Release' | 09:31 |
| shayisaac | moetunes, okay ... just to confirm with specialist. :) | 09:31 |
| MikeChelen | seval_91: both openjdk and sun java can be installed on the same system | 09:31 |
| nickd | Does the standard desktop iso not work with the hd-media installers? | 09:32 |
| abountu | in audacious, i must have changed something, now it doesn't play all the playlist, only plays one song and stop | 09:32 |
| unggnu | seval_91, OpenJDK is needed in Ubuntu 10.04 afaik | 09:32 |
| abountu | if I select repeat, it keeps repeating this song | 09:32 |
| shayisaac | moetunes, okay ... i've done one part | 09:32 |
| Jimmio | seval_91: OpenJDK is installed by OpenOffice, IIRC. So update it. | 09:32 |
| shayisaac | moetunes, then - do you know bout firewire things/issue? | 09:32 |
| seval_91 | hmm. OK thank you! | 09:32 |
| Jimmio | OpenOffice is, after all, a Java application. | 09:32 |
| abountu | how can I get audacious2 to play all the songs in my playlist, it's only playing one song and stopping (if i select repeat it keeps repeating the same song) | 09:32 |
| moetunes | shayisaac: in terminal you can do rm -v file1 file2 etc | 09:33 |
| unggnu | seval_91, if OpenJDK runs fine for you, you could uninstall sun java | 09:33 |
| shayisaac | moetunes, i have this external firewire card that i use to digitize my camcorder | 09:33 |
| shayisaac | emm | 09:33 |
| shayisaac | owh | 09:33 |
| moetunes | nope don't know firewire beyond looking for it in sudo fdisk -l | 09:33 |
| shayisaac | moetunes, ... emm .. and that is for? | 09:33 |
| shayisaac | moetunes, :/ | 09:33 |
| beli | hi there. i am using lucid and my system gets stuck from time to time. stuck means here: i can move my mouse, the music playback is still working, but none of my mouse or keyboard interactions work anymore. ideas? | 09:33 |
| cmtc_ | hi, how does anyone know how to make a belkin f5d8053 work on lucid? | 09:33 |

| beli | Jordan_U: tried ctrl+alt+bckspace too | 09:35 |
| Scuttle | is anyone using the Terratec H5 or H7 USB here in ubuntu? | 09:35 |

| Jordan_U | !sysrq | beli | 09:35 |
| ubottu | beli: In an emergency, you may be able to shutdown cleanly and reboot by holding down Alt+PrintScreen and typing, in succession, R, E, I, S, U and B. For an explanation, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_SysRq_key | 09:35 |
| moetunes | 's what it is called | 09:35 |
| Dr_Willis | Scuttle: what are those anyway? | 09:36 |
| Scuttle | Dr_Willis: DVB-C USB "dongles" | 09:36 |
| shayisaac | moetunes, is that for my firewire issue coz when i type the code juz now ... it says the directory is not available | 09:36 |
| beli | Jordan_U: thanks | 09:36 |
| cmtc_ | all: do you know how to disable/enable network cards in 10.04 | 09:36 |
| zeroseven0183 | Anyone here know why Nautilus stopped detecting my USB disks? But Ubuntu is able to see the partitions in Gparted and Disk Utility. All of my USB ports are working perfectly. | 09:36 |
| Scuttle | digital cable tv that is | 09:36 |
| unggnu | Scuttle, unlikely: http://alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Matrix:Vendor-Terratec | 09:36 |
| Dr_Willis | Scuttle: tv tuner type things? If so MythTV #mythbuntu may know some good support pages to see how well they are supported | 09:36 |
| unggnu | Scuttle, oh, ok, I thought it was a soundcard :) | 09:36 |
| Dr_Willis | zeroseven0183: nautilus every so often goes brain dead and stops automounting usb disks. | 09:37 |
| Jordan_U | beli: You're welcome. Just alt+sysrq+r may get you to be able to ctrl+alt+F1, and if not then alt+sysrq+k should kill X. | 09:37 |
| Scuttle | ah | 09:37 |
| moetunes | shayisaac: the " in terminal you can do rm -v file1 file2 etc" bit - that was for deleting files mate | 09:37 |
| Dr_Willis | zeroseven0183: not had the issue near as much in 10.04 as i had in the earlier release | 09:37 |
| shayisaac | moetunes, ooo ... means anything that relates to the file that i want to delete , is it? | 09:37 |
| The_Letter_M | Hello | 09:37 |
| zeroseven0183 | Dr_Willis: Hmmm.. But how come it worked just last night? | 09:38 |
| Dr_Willis | zeroseven0183: somthing crashed. I had it work.. then 4 min later it stops | 09:38 |
| moetunes | shayisaac: yep - I thought you were deleting them one at a time... | 09:38 |
| shayisaac | moetunes, now - the most crucial for me is to get my camcorder to work with kino | 09:38 |
| shayisaac | moetunes, hahaha ... nope. i juz delete them all at one shot | 09:38 |
| zeroseven0183 | Dr_Willis: I was thinking the latest updates I installed caused it. But I don't remember which one | 09:38 |
| C10uD | is it my keyboard or what that keeps enabling the mouse from keyboard? i disabled all the accessibility stuff and i checked shortcuts, i can't find why it's auto enabling that | 09:39 |
| zeroseven0183 | Dr_Willis: But that's strange | 09:39 |
| beli | Jordan_U: never heared of this feature. thats really nice. i am an old school X user and just aware of ctrl+alt+bckspace and ctrl+alt+ +/- and the ctrl+alt+f1...f7 stuff :) | 09:39 |
| Dr_Willis | zeroseven0183: i dont currently have the probklem. but ive had it on and off for the last year+ | 09:39 |
| shayisaac | moetunes, i have this SONY camcorder and i should able to digitize it using KINO | 09:39 |
| The_Letter_M | Hello | 09:40 |
| zeroseven0183 | Dr_Willis: And we're sure it's not a hardward problem | 09:40 |
| moetunes | shayisaac: asking the wrong bloke :] | 09:40 |
| The_Letter_M | What package do I need to isntall and have the me menu available in gnome? | 09:40 |
| Dr_Willis | zeroseven0183: if you can mount it by hand. then its a gnome/automounting system issue | 09:40 |
| shayisaac | moetunes, aloh .... :) okay ... i kept trying again .. hahaha ... i kept asking this question since morning | 09:40 |
| blankthemuffin | The_Letter_M, it'll be installed by default on a lucid desktop install | 09:40 |
| wasabi_ | how do i change the window controls from left to right? | 09:40 |
| moetunes | shayisaac: even the bot knows nothing about firewire | 09:40 |
| wasabi_ | not liking this whole osx like placement | 09:41 |
| The_Letter_M | well, I use Xubuntu and recently switched from XFCE to Gnome and it's not showing up | 09:41 |
| moetunes | !controls | wasabi_ | 09:41 |
| ubottu | wasabi_: 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 | 09:41 |
| Jordan_U | beli: It's not new, in fact alt+sysrq+k has always been the only way to be sure that you were at a real login prompt rather than a script someone left open to like like one when logging into a public terminal | 09:41 |
| shayisaac | moetunes, hahaha ... thats my problem now ... i've found that ubuntu is way more better than winXP but only this one i still cant figure out | 09:41 |
| wasabi_ | thanks moetunes | 09:41 |
| moetunes | np | 09:41 |
| beli | Jordan_U: you are right....i cant believe i didnt know about that so far...i am reading about it now....its a kernel feature! i am totally shocked, positively:) | 09:42 |
| Dr_Willis | yea for kernel featyures | 09:42 |
| Jordan_U | beli: :) | 09:42 |
| wasabi_ | also is it just me or is the google chrome dev .deb file are missing form the chromium page? http://www.chromium.org/getting-involved/dev-channel | 09:43 |

| dus10 | irc.kraventech.biz | 09:43 |

| ruben- | How can I get the new version of bitlbee installed via apt-get? | 09:44 |
| SwedeMike | zeridon: your gfx card is probably using some of it. | 09:44 |
| shayisaac | anyone with knowledge on firewire on ubuntu? | 09:44 |
| Dr_Willis | zeridon: thats how memory works. some part of it has to be reserved for 'system hardware' you only really notice it when you have exactly 4gb of ram. | 09:44 |
| shayisaac | i still fail to figure out this issue | 09:44 |
| shayisaac | anyone? | 09:44 |
| cmtc_ | How do I disable network cards? | 09:45 |
| Dr_Willis | cmtc_: remove the module is one way... | 09:45 |
| zeridon | SwedeMike, yeah ... the vid is ATI HD3450 (256 megs personally for him dedicated) | 09:45 |
| Dr_Willis | cmtc_: what are you disabling exactly? and why? | 09:45 |
| beli | cmtc_: disable for hardware detection? or just for beein used? | 09:45 |
| zeridon | SwedeMike, and under debian i see full 4 of it :( | 09:45 |
| Dr_Willis | zeridon: i would say you are using different tools, or theres some other reson for that. since basically its a 'hardware type limitation/work around' | 09:46 |
| SwedeMike | zeridon: that's strange. I don't have any answer then. debian and ubuntu are very similar. | 09:46 |
| SwedeMike | zeridon: "free" says 256 megs different between debian and ubuntu? | 09:46 |
| SwedeMike | zeridon: with similar kernels? | 09:46 |
| unggnu | SwedeMike, probably ureadahead | 09:47 |
| cmtc_ | Dr Willis: I have a wireless card and a usb wifi dongle, The dongle is not working, and i have disabled the card that is working, but now i need to swap them | 09:47 |
| moetunes | cmtc_: normally in the bios | 09:47 |
| unggnu | oder something like that | 09:47 |
| zeridon | SwedeMike, yes :( | 09:47 |
| ruben- | How can I put an accepted source into aptitude myself? | 09:47 |
| zeridon | SwedeMike, both with 2.6.30 | 09:47 |
| Dr_Willis | Memory-mapped devices (such as your video card) will use some of that physical address space, as will the BIOS ROMs. After all the non-memory devices have had their say, there will be less than 4GB of address space available for RAM below the 4GB physical address boundary. | 09:47 |
| jbcver1 | gimp seems to be leaving a green mouse trail | 09:47 |
| SwedeMike | zeridon: what ubuntu are you running that has a 2.6.30 kernel? | 09:48 |
| Dr_Willis | cmtc_: swap a usb wireless dongle for a wireless pci card? | 09:48 |
| jbcver1 | resizing, oand zooming don't seem to work. | 09:48 |
| jbcver1 | Really difficult to edit pictires with a paintbrush like trail :p :p | 09:48 |
| zeridon | SwedeMike, 9.04 with custom kernel (merge between oficial ubuntu + debian configs minus exotic modules) | 09:49 |

| Dr_Willis | zeridon: some good info on ram addressing -> (not linux specific) http://www.codinghorror.com/blog/2007/03/dude-wheres-my-4-gigabytes-of-ram.html | 09:50 |

| uLinux | http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu karmic partner | 09:51 |
| uLinux | can i remove this | 09:51 |
| SwedeMike | cmtc_: you should be able to handle that in network-manager. | 09:52 |
| uLinux | http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu karmic partner (source) | 09:52 |
| uLinux | main restricted universe multiverse | 09:52 |
| Gottlos | ah; neat-o-rama Dr_Willis! I ran into the problem with apt mainly, and a lot of the other bits and pieces (trying to install two packages at once from playdeb; because it's just so shiny) | 09:52 |
| Dr_Willis | uLinux: you could. but why bother. | 09:52 |
| uLinux | i dont like to see it there | 09:52 |
| Gottlos | apt vs deb installer gui majigger even | 09:52 |
| uLinux | im using lucid not karmic :\ | 09:52 |
| Dr_Willis | uLinux: then change it to lucid. | 09:53 |
| beli | cmtc_: why you want to use two wireless cards? if the usb dongle isnt working, remove it. if your internal card isnt working, but it is on other os for example, then read the dmesg log to get information on what has failed. try to use the network manager to set it up. and also make sure the correct modules are loaded for your wifi card chipset. | 09:53 |
| uLinux | Dr_Willis change all the other entries to Lucid? | 09:54 |
| uLinux | and enable them? | 09:54 |
| cmtc_ | beli: i can't find the network manager | 09:54 |
| Gottlos | any suggestions on how I could make the blueprint more useful or sell people on it (people who can actually author the changes?) | 09:54 |
| Dr_Willis | uLinux: if you want to use the partners repos on a lucid machine. enable the partners repos. | 09:54 |
| beli | cmtc_: if your wifi isnt working on other os also. check if it is enabled. some notebooks provide external switches for that. also there are bios options sometimes to enabled/disable wifi cards | 09:54 |
| Dr_Willis | uLinux: delete the repos you are not using | 09:54 |

| uLinux | do you those first entries disabled what can I do with them? remove or change to lucid? | 09:59 |
| uLinux | see | 09:59 |
| Dr_Willis | zeridon: i was thinking that also.. but dident mention it.. i wasent sure if Ubuntu switched to GiB/GB in its free commands or not.. i know that for the filesystem/filesizes it HAS switched | 09:59 |
| Dr_Willis | uLinux: if you dont want them then delete them. | 09:59 |
| Dr_Willis | You can add the partner repo later if you need it | 09:59 |
| beli | cmtc_: so check if it is detected by the kernel....use dmesg log for that.....and make sure correct kernel modules are loaded for it (lsmod).....then try to enable it via the network manager | 09:59 |

| guntbert | wildbat_laptop: you are always using 'u' for "you",.... | 10:13 |
| Dr_Willis | nickd: that one should work. | 10:13 |
| knutmithut | hello.. someone knows, why my NFSv4 connection is so horrible slow, that programms like firefox freezes regular and need several minutes to open? | 10:13 |
| Dr_Willis | nickd: a server iso wont. | 10:13 |
| mustafa | moetunes, yes. | 10:13 |
| wildbat_laptop | chouchou, keep in mind that the apache2 deamon isn't run by root account . ~ | 10:13 |
| chouchou | ? | 10:14 |
| ns5 | Hi, I installed 10.04 on my laptop last week, today I installed windows vista, how do I update the grub config? | 10:14 |
| moetunes | mustafa: and you don't want it mounted at every boot? | 10:14 |
| mustafa | moetunes, yes. | 10:14 |
| Lovehina | hello | 10:14 |
| lynx563 | hi | 10:15 |
| moetunes | mustafa: then you need to edit that file and put a comment in front of the line with that partition mentioned - a comment is a # | 10:15 |
| chouchou | ok, how do I loosen things up for the end user | 10:15 |
| lynx563 | ihave ubuntu lucid and need the ati catalyst driver version 9.3 | 10:15 |
| lynx563 | is this the fglrx in the repos? | 10:15 |
| nickd | Dr_Willis, OK well with Debian this stuff is usually due to a mismatched kernel in the di and the iso, but i sourced the two from: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/lucid/main/installer-amd64/current/images/hd-media/ and http://releases.ubuntu.com/lucid/ubuntu-10.04-desktop-amd64.iso | 10:15 |
| wildbat_laptop | guntbert, and?~ as long as ppl understand what's the big idea about it ^^ eevn the stuipd splelings are off you can still unedrstand. | 10:15 |
| chouchou | look, even while trying to save seeings form my web interface I have this error An Error has occurred! Unable to open configuration.php file to write! | 10:15 |
| moetunes | mustafa: gksu gedit /etc/fstab | 10:15 |
| chouchou | i snot helping | 10:15 |
| Lovehina | Im having some trouble getting smooth playback of 720p MKV video | 10:16 |
| wildbat_laptop | chouchou, you have to change chown of the files. | 10:16 |
| mustafa | moetunes, yes i did it? | 10:17 |
| Lovehina | my specs are: 3.0 GHz CPU, GF7800GT | 10:17 |
| chouchou | how pls? | 10:17 |
| mustafa | moetunes, after that what sholud i do? | 10:17 |
| moetunes | mustafa: then when you reboot it should not be mounted | 10:17 |
| === overmind is now known as gomagarrofin | ||
| ipsin | I just can't tell if "LTS 10.04" is not ready for prime time. | 10:17 |
| guntbert | wildbat_laptop: did you *read* what ubottu sent you? those abbreviations are not to be used here -- but I won't keep you from your support case -- sorry to interfere | 10:17 |
| Dr_Willis | Lovehina: what player? | 10:17 |
| wildbat_laptop | chouchou, sudo chown someuser:www-data <file> | 10:17 |
| uLinux | I have another issue why imdb forums text looks huge? (ive tried ctrl+0) | 10:18 |
| mustafa | moetunes, thanks. i will try it | 10:18 |
| moetunes | k | 10:18 |
| chouchou | ok | 10:18 |
| Lovehina | Im using gnome-mplayer | 10:18 |
| chouchou | wildbat_laptop: will the same apply to ftp too? | 10:18 |
| === gomagarrofin is now known as overmind | ||
| Dr_Willis | Lovehina: try vlc. also theres newer versions of mplayer that use that new vpadu (spelling?) feature in some nvidia cards to get better playback | 10:18 |
| nickd | Dr_Willis, So I'm stumped - I'm just going to prove I'm not a moron by checking my technique using the 32bit variants then I guess I'll file a bug on launchpad. | 10:19 |
| SwedeMike | Dr_Willis: vdpau. | 10:19 |
| Lovehina | the playback is not smooth in VLC either... | 10:19 |
| joemac | Good evening all, I am having issues conecting my phone to my comp, can anyone help please? | 10:19 |
| Dr_Willis | SwedeMike: my card dont support it. :( | 10:19 |
| Lovehina | also...vdpau doeasnt support GF7 cards... | 10:19 |
| SwedeMike | ipsin: 10.04 works well on some hw, and has problems on others. | 10:19 |
| wildbat_laptop | guntbert, i understand that. just years of typing habit, i am don't hard to keep out 'ttyl' type abbreviations though ^^ | 10:19 |
| lynx563 | and when will it be possible to install nvidia binaries again on lucid? | 10:19 |
| guntbert | wildbat_laptop: :-) | 10:20 |
| Lovehina | I have no problems att all playing the same file on XP | 10:20 |
| SwedeMike | lynx563: there are articles showing how to do it already, but you might get some consmetic downsides when booting. | 10:20 |
| SwedeMike | Lovehina: GF7800 doesn't support vdpau anyway. | 10:21 |
| Lovehina | yea..I knew that... | 10:21 |
| wildbat_laptop | chouchou, the login ftp user (can be virtualuser, in that case the ftpd user) will need to own the file in order to change the files permission. | 10:21 |
| SwedeMike | Lovehina: so what CPU do you have? | 10:22 |
| chouchou | will the same command apply to it ? | 10:22 |
| Lovehina | Intel Pentium 4 3.0GHz HT | 10:22 |
| wildbat_laptop | guntbert, doing* | 10:22 |
| ipsin | Swede, big thanks. I have an Asus P6X58D-E mobo, and I guess I should just go back to Ubuntu 9 for now. | 10:23 |
| Zagorax | Hi, I have problem starting privoxy un startup. /etc/rc2.d/S20privoxy exist, /etc/init.d/privoxy is executable and in bum privoxy is checked... what I can do? thank you | 10:23 |
| SwedeMike | Lovehina: that should be able to do 720p h264 properly.you could try some different -vo options for mplayer and see if some helps. | 10:23 |
| zeridon | Zagorax: check the config file and daemon logs | 10:24 |
| Lovehina | well... I did try one combination of options...but | 10:24 |
| Lovehina | one moment | 10:24 |
| SwedeMike | ipsin: I'm running 10.04 on core i5 (H57 motherboard), X38 motherboard and an X200 thinkpad, they all work well | 10:24 |
| SwedeMike | ipsin: X58 should be supported as well, what gfx card do you have? | 10:25 |
| fcoo_21 | I use Ubuntu 10.04. I had SunJava and worked fine with eclipse and Jdownloader. But now i installed OpenJDK to try it. Now Jdownloader opening automatically with "Java -jar /Jdownloader.jar" command. But i want as default the SunJava. And Eclipse now does not have SunJava as compiler but OpenJDK. Can someone help me to change them please? | 10:25 |
| SwedeMike | Lovehina: also, you should do "top" at the same time to see if cpu is running 100% | 10:25 |
| ipsin | Yes, I'm not sure what the issue is. Well, definitely one of them was "nomodeset" (because I don't enjoy staring at that brown screen for hours). NVidia GTX 260. | 10:25 |
| Zagorax | zeridon, privoxy config file is ok, it works properly if I start it manually, privoxy log is blank... | 10:25 |
| === Anzufvytar[Away] is now known as Anzufvytar | ||
| Lovehina | I tried this: "-nodouble -lavdopts skipframe=nonref:skiploopfilter=all" but that sort of makes everything skip...instead of just the slowdowns... | 10:25 |
| Lovehina | hmm..."top" ? | 10:25 |
| erUSUL | fcoo_21: sudo update-alternatives --config java | 10:26 |
| ipsin | I guess since the "sensor" piece came back [OK], it's probably the next step that borked it. | 10:26 |
| Zagorax | Zeridon, i'll try again removing the log file first | 10:26 |
| zeridon | Zagorax: what about /var/log/daemon.log ... are you trying to put it on some low port ... what is the runlevel you are running | 10:27 |
| SwedeMike | Lovehina: that isn't -vo options, and "top" is a cli tool to show what processes are using how much cpu | 10:27 |
| aperson | can someone tell me the difference between rsync's --delete, and --delete-excluded ? | 10:27 |
| Lovehina | I tried the system...what its called...and...it shows 100% now and then... | 10:27 |
| zeridon | aperson: in rsync you can exclude files from sync and if you specify --delete-excluded they will be deleted on the target | 10:28 |
| shayisaac | Dr_Willis, so ... i've done installing FrostWire | 10:28 |
| ipsin | Which runlevel is a normal boot? 4? | 10:29 |
| Dr_Willis | !runlevel | 10:29 |
| ubottu | In Ubuntu all runlevels except 0,1 and 6 are by default equal. Also keep in mind that Ubuntu now uses !Upstart instead of System V init so there is normally no /etc/inittab. | 10:29 |
| zeridon | Ipeer: 3 | 10:29 |
| shayisaac | Dr_Willis, emm ... this is Save Folder and Share Folder | 10:29 |
| Dr_Willis | Ubuntu uses 2 - and the other runlevels other then 0,1,6 dont do much | 10:29 |
| === juju2143 is now known as [J] | ||
| zeridon | hmm crap this is not nice | 10:29 |
| chouchou | wildbat_laptop: changing the owner for the we reduced the error, what abou the FTP? | 10:29 |
| fcoo_21 | erUSUL: thank you. it worked. but how to add on list of java-compilers the Openjdk. i want to try both of them for my code . ? | 10:29 |
| shayisaac | Dr_Willis, what should i do with this that relate with the firewire thang? | 10:30 |
| Lovehina | Under the system thing...the mplayer shows about 85-95 % of CPU... | 10:30 |
| bullgard_ | Where is the function of the AlsaMixer sliders Master, MasterMono, Headphone, PCM, Line, CD, Mic Mic(Boost(+20db), MicSelect, Phone, Aux, MonoOutputSel, External Amplif, Stereo, and Mic defined? | 10:30 |
| Dr_Willis | shayisaac: what firewire thing? | 10:30 |
| SwedeMike | Lovehina: oki, then you're cpu constrained and there is little to do about it if the -vo options won't help. | 10:30 |
| erUSUL | fcoo_21: dunno sorry; maybe it has a different name ojavac ? | 10:30 |
| shayisaac | Dr_Willis, owh. Actually - i need to work my camcorder with KINO | 10:31 |
| Lovehina | what -vo options? | 10:31 |
| Dr_Willis | shayisaac: first ive ever heard of a camcorder question today.... | 10:31 |
| Lovehina | I havent tried any of them... | 10:31 |
| zeridon | Lovehina: try -framedrop -hardframedrop -mc 2 | 10:31 |
| sekyourbox | hi floodbot4 | 10:31 |
| karl__ | hi all ! | 10:31 |
| Lovehina | okej...one moment | 10:31 |
| zeridon | Lovehina: sometimes it helps sometimes not | 10:31 |
| Dr_Willis | Firewire = ieeXXXXX ? some special port that camcorders use.. Frostwire = a limewire clone. Not related at all. | 10:32 |
| karl__ | i have upgraded my netbook to 10.4 and suddenly all windows vanish! | 10:32 |
| aperson | zeridon, so --delete deletes files on the target that no longer exist on the host, and --delete-excluded deletes the files that I specify on the target, correct? | 10:32 |
| fcoo_21 | erUSUL: ok. thank you! :) | 10:32 |
| arachnoid | hello | 10:32 |
| ipsin | Odd, /etc/init.d/lm-sensors is the last thing that runs before the panic, but it's not invoked by any startup scripts at any run level? (grep'd /etc/rc*.d and /etc/init.d/*) | 10:32 |
| karl__ | whatever i open, it is immediately minimized | 10:32 |
| karl__ | i cant even logout as the logout window is vanishing | 10:32 |
| zeridon | aperson: for the delete yes for delete-excluded if any of the specified exclusions exist on the target they will be deleted (usually after the sync is complete) | 10:33 |
| karl__ | this is on the netbook desktop, gnome seems to work ok | 10:33 |
| ipsin | I guess I didn't realize that things could run from /etc/init.d without being symlinked into an rc*.d | 10:33 |
| moetunes | ipsin: is lm-sensors in autostarted apps? | 10:33 |
| aperson | zeridon, ok, thanks for the clarification | 10:33 |
| zeridon | np | 10:33 |
| [fade] | moetunes lm-sensors you need to set to start automatically | 10:33 |
| Lovehina | Hmm...also...mplayer has some video output options... | 10:33 |
| Lovehina | which one should I chose...? | 10:34 |
| zeridon | aperson: if you are setting mirroring system i highly advise to use --delete-after and --timeout=300 | 10:34 |
| moetunes | [fade]: it is ipsin 's prob | 10:34 |
| Lovehina | like: GL, GL2 etc etc | 10:34 |
| aperson | zeridon, noted, and added to backup script | 10:34 |
| K1ng\ | samba? | 10:34 |
| K1ng\ | ~samba | 10:35 |
| moetunes | !samba | 10:35 |

| sekyourbox | Hi folks, I downloaded the 10.04 release of ubuntu, and when i try to use the install CD it says that it will load the desktop because ubuntu installation cannot continue. When I open the error in x I get: Sorry, the program "gvfs-gdu-volume-monitor" closed unexpectedly. Any ideas? | 10:35 |
| K1ng\ | !samba | 10:35 |
| karl__ | any ideas why my windows are vanishing ? | 10:35 |
| ipsin | What's "autostarted apps"? I see the console line during boot, and I'm trying to answer the question "what runs after lm-sensors?" Because whatever it is panics. | 10:35 |
| sekyourbox | is this 10.04 thing going to be like the vista of microsoft? | 10:35 |
| Dr_Willis | karl__: are they minimizing? or closeing? | 10:36 |
| ManDay | sekyourbox, yes. exactly. | 10:36 |
| chouchou | well, you advice me to downgrade my php version from 5.3.2 to 5.2.x ? | 10:36 |
| ipsin | (I mean, unless "OK" means, "OK and now I am going to panic) | 10:36 |
| Slart | sekyourbox: have you checked the cd for defects? | 10:36 |
| om26er | sekyourbox, ubuntu is not windows | 10:36 |
| moetunes | ipsin: k - it is not in autostarted apps then if you see it before X | 10:36 |
| sekyourbox | slart, yes | 10:36 |
| sekyourbox | I have been using ubuntu since 604, and never had a problem til now | 10:36 |
| Slart | sekyourbox: and the hardware is ok? you've tried installing several times and you get the same error? | 10:37 |
| ipsin | moetunes: yes, this is a kernel panic very, very early in the boot process (like maybe the 8th console line printed?) | 10:37 |
| chouchou | any answer ? | 10:37 |
| sekyourbox | Slart, yessir | 10:37 |
| hd1 | where would alsaconf be in ubuntu lucid? | 10:37 |
| shayisaac | Dr_Willis, emm. Yep. i was trying to get the answer since morning | 10:37 |
| shayisaac | Dr_Willis, :( | 10:37 |
| sekyourbox | Slart, I originally tried sudo apt-get upgrade, but that is another story | 10:37 |
| Dr_Willis | shayisaac: i dont even rember the question now.... | 10:37 |
| Slart | sekyourbox: you mean you tried to upgrade to 10.04 using the update-manager? | 10:38 |
| * notoff is having probs making a pdf with 4 copies on one side of the page :/ | 10:38 | |
| wildbat_laptop | chouchou, i said the user have to match the ftp user | 10:38 |
| chouchou | ok | 10:38 |
| aperson | care to critique my backup script zeridon?: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/434279/ | 10:38 |
| Dr_Willis | notoff: you mean shrink a printout down so it puts 4 pages on 1 page? | 10:38 |
| shayisaac | Dr_Willis, hahaha ... ok ... actually i have this external firewire card | 10:38 |
| shayisaac | Dr_Willis, but it seems that my ubuntu doesnt read that card | 10:38 |
| chouchou | how will I do that please? using the same method you posted above ? | 10:39 |
| shayisaac | Dr_Willis, i cant use it with KINO | 10:39 |
| wildbat_laptop | chouchou, yes | 10:39 |
| notoff | will only print one small (25%) page in the corner | 10:39 |
| notoff | I want 4 on the page, not just one | 10:39 |
| Dr_Willis | notoff: i used a tool AGEs ago that helped me do that..but that was with text and from the browser. I used it as the printer command instead of lpr/whatever it is now. | 10:39 |
| karl__ | hi Dr_Willis ! I am not doing anything, i press the firefox icon in the nbe desktop, it loads, shows up and immediately vanishes | 10:39 |
| Dr_Willis | !info xprint | 10:39 |
| wildbat_laptop | chouchou, said if your ftp login in dummy123, the files should own by dummy123 : www-data | 10:40 |
| ubottu | xprint (source: xprint): X11 print system (binary). In component universe, is optional. Version 2:1.6.0-4 (lucid), package size 643 kB, installed size 1360 kB | 10:40 |
| sekyourbox | Slart, i was on 910 and ran apt-get upgrade from the terminal.. All hell broke loose. I loose all i/o input when I try to start x. x works fine on the live cd.. | 10:40 |
| karl__ | then it is minimized in the top left corner, i can press the icon, the window shows up and vanishes again | 10:40 |
| Dr_Willis | karl__: is it in the window list? can you alt-tab and see it? | 10:40 |
| chouchou | ok | 10:40 |
| Pingu | hey all | 10:40 |
| Dr_Willis | karl__: vanish can mean, closes... or crashes.. or minimizes | 10:40 |
| Slart | sekyourbox: apt-get upgrade doesn't upgrade your version | 10:40 |
| sekyourbox | Slart, what does it do? | 10:40 |
| Pingu | any of you were able to connect to a Checkpoint firewall eith VPN? | 10:40 |
| Pingu | I am running lucid | 10:41 |
| sekyourbox | Slart, Maybe distupgrade or something i'm thinking of | 10:41 |
| Slart | sekyourbox: that just upgrades packages to the version that is in the repos.. ie you'll get an updated 9.10 | 10:41 |
| Fudge | anyone know how to access or watch a .bin and .q movie file? | 10:41 |
| MikeChelen | Fudge: try vlc | 10:41 |
| notoff | hmm.. I think I had this wortking once (long ago)... but that was another ubuntu distro with maybe a messy workaround | 10:41 |
| Slart | sekyourbox: yea.. there are some other command line scripts that will upgrade to the next version.. I don't remember what they are called | 10:41 |
| sekyourbox | Slart, It definitely did an upgrade. It loads up with 10.04 | 10:41 |
| notoff | very frustratingv | 10:41 |
| zeridon | aperson: probably you could add more excludes (/var comes to mind, but not the whole of it) | 10:41 |
| karl__ | Dr. Willis: it means minimizes. i think the nbr desktop is just put on top of all windows | 10:41 |
| wildbat_laptop | !video | Fudge | 10:41 |
| ubottu | Fudge: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also https://help.ubuntu.com/9.04/musicvideophotos/C/video.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats | 10:41 |
| karl__ | even the logout window vanishes immediately | 10:42 |
| sekyourbox | could me a little off on the command | 10:42 |
| zeridon | aperson: also if you intend to restore old files ... well this will not work as it keeps only the current fileset | 10:42 |
| Slart | sekyourbox: I did a fresh install myself.. don't really trust those upgrades | 10:42 |
| ipsin | So I guess I've had this problem with the last 3 ubuntu releases. There are Known Issues. Bugs have been filed, etc. But unless I actually try and install (and fail), I won't know about issues that might materially affect me. Is there some kind of clearinghouse of "Stuff the Ubuntu Team Knows About, and Hopes To Fix"? I just hate reading twisty mazes of tracker tickets. | 10:42 |
| Dr_Willis | karl__: this is on the netbook install of ubu8ntu? or a noirmal desktop install? | 10:42 |
| sekyourbox | The problem is my fresh install doesnt work | 10:42 |
| Slart | sekyourbox: but anyways.. you say you can't do a fresh install from the install cd.. | 10:42 |
| aperson | zeridon, I plan on having another cron job doing a regular tar.bz of the target dirs | 10:42 |
| Slart | sekyourbox: any weird hardware in your box? | 10:42 |
| moetunes | ipsin: as a guess try for f in /etc/init.d/*; do cat $f | grep lm ; done - it might show it starting somewhere | 10:42 |
| zeridon | aperson: for a full blown backup solution i tend to prefer backuppc | 10:42 |
| Fudge | ty | 10:43 |
| zeridon | aperson: it does deblocking and similar files pooling (and works across all OS (kinda) | 10:43 |
| sekyourbox | Slart, I haven't had any problems. I dont think anything is strange as far as the hardware goes. X loads fine with the live cd, so I dont see what the problem could be | 10:43 |
| karl__ | Dr Willis: I can alt-tab to the window, but it immediately vanishes again | 10:43 |
| Slart | sekyourbox: nothing in the logs after it fails? | 10:43 |
| Dr_Willis | notoff: years ago i used the 'xpp' tool a great deal to print several pages to 1 page. | 10:43 |
| ipsin | Thanks moetunes, I already checked that (using egrep, anyway). The only place lm-sensors shows up is in the lm-sensors file. | 10:43 |
| moetunes | k | 10:44 |
| sekyourbox | slart, Sorry, the program "gvfs-gdu-volume-monitor" closed unexpectedly :: The program crashed on an assertion failure | 10:45 |
| karl__ | Dr Willis: and netbook-louncher takes 30% cpu | 10:45 |
| aperson | zeridon, I'll look into that, also, the only thing I could think of excluding in /var is /var/tmp | 10:45 |
| Dr_Willis | karl__: you may want to try makign a new user on the machine and logging in as them. see if affets them also. | 10:46 |
| karl__ | hmm, netbook-launcher seems to crash continously, it changes its pid | 10:46 |
| Dr_Willis | !tab | karl__ | 10:46 |
| ubottu | karl__: You can use your <tab> key for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. | 10:46 |
| Slart | sekyourbox: something like this https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gvfs/+bug/531731 ? | 10:46 |
| karl__ | i have made a new user, same thing | 10:46 |
| Dr_Willis | karl__: Hmm. odd. sounds like some nasty bug going on. is this in 10.04 ? | 10:46 |
| karl__ | Dr_Willis, thanks | 10:46 |
| karl__ | Dr_Willis, yes, 10.4 | 10:47 |
| zeridon | aperson: /var/cache, parts of /var/lib, /var/tmp, /tmp | 10:47 |
| sekyourbox | Slart, thats it | 10:47 |
| Dr_Willis | karl__: the kubuntu release also has a netbook interface i liked :) but i never had any issues like yours with the normal netbook edition | 10:47 |
| karl__ | yep, netbook-launcher is crashing, its pid increased by 100 now | 10:47 |
| zeridon | aperson: just look around and think which is your data and which is going to be autognerated/derived in normal work process | 10:47 |
| karl__ | crashing netbook-launcher would also explain vanishing windows, its just being put on top every time its restarted | 10:48 |
| karl__ | the plot thickens.... syslog reports glxinfo segfault | 10:48 |
| aperson | /var/lib/ureadahead/* | 10:49 |
| Slart | sekyourbox: well.. they offered no work-around.. I guess it's time to play the waiting-game =( I suppose you could try running the update-manager from the live cd before you try installing.. that might update gvfs to a newer version which hopefully has this bug fixed | 10:49 |

| MACscr_lappy | my windows bootrecord got screwed up, so i had to repair it. When that was done, i lost the options for booting into ubuntu | 10:51 |
| sekyourbox | There is no report function with that error. So it likely will not get as much attention. | 10:51 |
| MACscr_lappy | any tips? | 10:51 |
| Dr_Willis | !fixgrub | MACscr_lappy | 10:52 |
| ubottu | MACscr_lappy: grub is the default boot manager for Ubuntu releases before Karmic (9.10). Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto - See !grub2 for Karmic onwards. | 10:52 |
| sekyourbox | nah use lilo | 10:52 |
| notoff | Dr_Willis: Thanks! Will try out 'xpp' to see if it does what I want. | 10:53 |
| Dr_Willis | notoff: i used that tool a lot - 4+ yrs ago :) | 10:53 |
| shayisaac | anybody used to KINO? | 10:53 |
| sekyourbox | So this issue is fixed by shipping an updated version? So how do I make sure this is the updated version? | 10:54 |
| karl__ | whats the current kernel in 10.4 ? | 10:54 |
| SwedeMike | karl__: 2.6.32 | 10:54 |
| dnivra | hello I am using ubuntu 10.04 and I am getting segmentation faults in firefox. can someone help me identify what is the problem. | 10:54 |
| karl__ | so 2.6.32-22-generic is the correct kernel ? | 10:55 |
| === nikolam_ is now known as nikolam | ||
| dnivra | I am using firefox 3.6.3 by the way. | 10:55 |
| sekyourbox | firefox has really been turning to crap lately | 10:55 |
| SwedeMike | dnivra: segmentation faults are usually bugs or memory problems. if you're seeing this in only firefox, it sounds like a bug in firefox or in a plugin. | 10:55 |
| karl__ | i get segfaults in glxinfo about 100/minute | 10:55 |
| SwedeMike | karl__: that's the version I have in lucid anyway. | 10:55 |
| sekyourbox | plugins are know to cause a lot of problems in firefox indeed | 10:55 |
| karl__ | thanks SwedeMike | 10:56 |
| ipsin | Hm, Upstart seems to be a new boot regime (as of 10.04?) | 10:56 |
| shayisaac | KINO ... anyone? | 10:56 |
| moijk | dnivra: firefox crashes like an eptileptic at a disco at times in 10.4 for no apparent reason. | 10:56 |
| ipsin | Still no obvious way of answering the question "what comes after lm-sensors in boot order" | 10:56 |
| sekyourbox | well thanks for all your help guys. I'll check into that workaround. | 10:57 |
| ipsin | Running firefox in a shell might at least provide a hint why | 10:57 |
| dnivra | moijk, SwedeMike, here's what the output is when I run it in the terminal. http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/PQHBPaaV | 10:57 |
| Dr_Willis | ipsin: since services can run in parallel - im not sure there is a definitive answer | 10:57 |
| ipsin | Hm thanks, that makes sense. | 10:57 |
| dnivra | moijk, well it was working fine till now. I used firefox three days ago it was fine. now crashes on every run. | 10:57 |
| karl__ | this is odd, i seem to have no xorg.conf | 10:57 |
| SwedeMike | ipsin: dnivra try running "strace firefox-bin" and see what is shown right before the segfault. | 10:57 |
| Dr_Willis | ipsin: it could also be some service starting much earlier thats crashing a few moments later. | 10:57 |
| karl__ | dpkg-reconfigure xserver does not produce one | 10:57 |
| SwedeMike | ipsin: sorry, wrong person. | 10:58 |
| Dr_Willis | karl__: thats not odd.. thats 'standard' now a days | 10:58 |
| dnivra | SwedeMike, it's working fine so far. run that command now? | 10:58 |
| SwedeMike | dnivra: yes. | 10:58 |
| karl__ | ah, so how do i find/set the graphics driver ? | 10:58 |
| karl__ | i suspect a problem there | 10:58 |
| dnivra | SwedeMike, alright will do so. | 10:58 |
| sekyourbox | karl__, I'm no expert but I think this is now normal operation for x | 10:58 |
| Dr_Willis | karl__: for what video card? most of the time its all automated these days | 10:58 |
| ipsin | Ah, that also makes sense. Since it appears to be a kernel panic (caps + scroll blink), I assume I don't really have a hope of figuring out the root cause? | 10:58 |
| karl__ | intel 945 gme | 10:59 |
| ipsin | (I mean, without a kernel debugger and a lot of spare time) | 10:59 |
| dnivra | SwedeMike, it starts a new process strace? | 10:59 |
| MACscr_lappy | man, i got 10k rpm hd's, dual core 3.1ghz cpu, and 8gb ram and that live disk is still slow as hell to boot up | 10:59 |
| SwedeMike | dnivra: it starts a new firefox with process tracing, yes. | 10:59 |
| MACscr_lappy | heck, even after install it seems to take longer than windows to boot | 10:59 |
| SwedeMike | MACscr_lappy: live disk as in cd or usb? yes, that's slow. | 10:59 |
| MACscr_lappy | cd | 11:00 |
| dnivra | where can I upload screenshots? | 11:00 |
| zrin | hi, what is the locale "#" offered during the installation? | 11:01 |

| mateobur | is anyone using 10.04 with a macbook ?? | 11:04 |
| wrapster | guys does skype on ubuntu 9.10 work properly.? | 11:04 |
| wrapster | is anyone using it? | 11:04 |
| SwedeMike | wrapster: I've been using skype on 9.10 and 10.04 and it works. | 11:05 |
| iamtrying | Dr_Willis: looks good, thank you | 11:05 |
| Dr_Willis | wrapster: ive heard it works.. ive also heard of some issues with it | 11:05 |
| wrapster | Dr_Willis: yes i want skype now.. but ready about a few issues.. so was worried.. as its my main mode of commnuincation. | 11:05 |
| wrapster | Dr_Willis: and the solution for that display problerm i posted a few hrs ago is just to install the latestest nvidia drivers.. and reboot | 11:06 |
| moetunes | can someone give the kernel version for lucid pls | 11:06 |
| SwedeMike | moetunes: 2.6.32 | 11:07 |

| moetunes | thnx SwedeMike :] | 11:07 |
| wrapster | SwedeMike: and which version do i choose? on the official skype site i see only 8.10 versions... | 11:07 |
| SwedeMike | wrapster: yes, that version works, I'm using 2.1.0.81-1 | 11:08 |
| Dr_Willis | wrapster: what display problem? | 11:08 |
| mikedep333 | hello, I have a system with a weird graphics card (an S3 prosavage). How do I check what x.org video driver is in use? | 11:08 |
| ipsin | What's the Upstart way to change init level? | 11:08 |
| mikedep333 | wait, nm | 11:08 |
| mikedep333 | the x.org log | 11:08 |
| ipsin | (I want to try normal init level from single user) | 11:08 |
| ManDay | ALL my bookmarks are GONE! My ~ is untouched - what happend?! | 11:08 |
| Dr_Willis | ipsin: upstart dosent really use init levels. its all 2 for a running system | 11:09 |
| ManDay | Where does FF normally stored the current bookmarks?! | 11:09 |
| ManDay | I need to find them! | 11:09 |
| ipsin | Right, but if I'm in single user (rescue) mode, is there a way to make it pretend to start up, w/o rebooting? | 11:09 |
| ipsin | (or is the concept of "changing runlevels" obsolete?) | 11:10 |
| JdGordon1 | does anyone use autofs with cifs/smb? | 11:10 |
| JdGordon1 | it mounts fine but I cant cd into the directories | 11:10 |
| Dr_Willis | ipsin: Not that ive ever noticed. You could try init 2 I guess. or telinit 2 | 11:10 |
| ipsin | (Yeah, neither worked) | 11:10 |
| karl__ | hi ! i found the problem and the solution ! | 11:10 |
| Dr_Willis | ipsin: its getting tobe a slowly obsolete idea | 11:11 |
| wildbat | autofs scirpt is bugged | 11:11 |
| karl__ | when you have libmyth installed a aptitude-update pulls nvidia drivers even if no nvidia card is installed | 11:11 |
| karl__ | the nvidia kernel driver seems to create the segfault | 11:11 |
| karl__ | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mesa/+bug/256021 | 11:11 |
| karl__ | now everything works. | 11:12 |
| karl__ | happy man. | 11:12 |
| ipsin | Dr_Willis: I can see the advantage of parallelizing the boot process, but I do wish for better diagnostic tools in the event that things aren't peachy. | 11:12 |
| ipsin | Unordered execution can be quite a headache, if it turns startup order into a loosely-ordered bag of stuff that can run Whenever. | 11:13 |
| ipsin | But I'm kvetching to no end. I think I've already decided on Ub 9... like, an hour ago. | 11:13 |
| SwedeMike | ipsin: there are things that graph each process in the boot and how long it takes. | 11:13 |
| ipsin | SwedeMike: Is there a debug/trace boot option that will cause it to be chatty about that stuff? I just want to figure out what's failing so I can move on to why. | 11:14 |
| lucid_lynx | is there a way to "undo" Alt + SysRq + R? | 11:15 |

| moetunes | bullgard_: man alsamixer might tell - files used | 11:20 |
| ipsin | Actually, nevermind, if I boot single user and then start gdm, that's kind of like having a working system. | 11:20 |
| ipsin | I am moderately pleased. | 11:20 |
| SwedeMike | ipsin: if you would have been running something with grub I'd say to remove "quiet splash" from the boot line, but I don't know enough about grub2 and plymouth so tell what to do | 11:21 |
| ipsin | SwedeMike: I removed quiet splash when I added nomodeset (which stopped one consistent hang). I didn't even know about grub2/plymouth | 11:22 |
| ipsin | (if 10.04 uses grub2, it's enough like grub that I didn't notice) | 11:22 |
| SwedeMike | ipsin: it does. | 11:22 |

| wyrlss | You're not installing Ubuntu over it, you're just changing boot loaders. | 11:55 |

| DrGrov | So, how do I run unrar on files? Which unrar should I choose? I think the files are in Rar 3.0 format....' | 12:01 |
| moetunes | MACscr_lappy: grub to sda just now? | 12:01 |
| SwedeMike | mkhanyisi: I was just offering information on your absent xorg.conf. | 12:01 |
| MACscr_lappy | moetunes: something like sudo grub-install --root-directory=/media/0d104aff-ec8c-44c8-b811-92b993823444 /dev/sda | 12:01 |
| MACscr_lappy | but i used the uuid i got from: mount | tail -1 | 12:01 |
| mkhanyisi | SwedeMike, oh ... i forgot, thank you very much | 12:01 |
| moetunes | ~blkid | 12:02 |
| MACscr_lappy | it said that it finished successfuly and now errors | 12:02 |
| moetunes | !blkid | 12:02 |
| ubottu | To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell: « sudo blkid » (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID) | 12:02 |
| mkhanyisi | !xorg | 12:02 |
| 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 | 12:02 |
| MACscr_lappy | moetunes: what do you think i did wrong? did the wiki give me incorrect instructions? | 12:03 |
| DrGrov | Anyone know to help me with the RAR issues? What should I install in order to get it working?? | 12:03 |
| tillen | hi Qall | 12:03 |
| researcher1 | how do I know the disk spaces available so that I can install Xp after Ubuntu10.04? | 12:03 |
| wesguin | DrGrov, what are you using to unrar with? | 12:03 |
| pk___ | my huawei e1550 modem shows 4 devices..which one do i use | 12:03 |
| moetunes | MACscr_lappy: if you followed it right prob not - afaik windows 7 gives some hassles but I've never used it | 12:04 |
| mkhanyisi | I've just installed ubuntu 9.10 and then login screen does not show up and the xorg.conf file is absent, I am using ATI Radeon HD 3650 | 12:04 |
| MACscr_lappy | moetunes: then why did you give me different diretions for getting the UUID than what i used which were given in the wiki? | 12:04 |
| szabiakanich | hey | 12:05 |
| SwedeMike | !rar | DrGrov | 12:05 |
| ubottu | DrGrov: rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression. There is a free (as in speech) unrar utility as well, see !info unrar-free | 12:05 |
| moetunes | MACscr_lappy: it is the normal way to find the uuid | 12:05 |
| researcher1 | installing XP after Ubuntu10.04? | 12:05 |
| DrGrov | SwedeMike, thanks. I tried those options but no luck though. | 12:05 |
| szabiakanich | got a quick question if anybody is kind enough to help me out | 12:05 |
| MACscr_lappy | moetunes: i guess im wondering why the wiki is giving the non normal way then =P | 12:05 |

| SwedeMike | DrGrov: I have no idea. | 12:09 |
| DrGrov | SwedeMike, no problem. I will keep trying now with the rar which is non-free | 12:10 |

| SwedeMike | DrGrov: that I don't know, you have to read that youself. | 12:14 |
| Sameer | Monotoko audacity ..is it available in ubuntu software centre | 12:14 |
| Dr_Willis | nikitis: you could put grub on sdb and tell the pc/bios to boot sdb. then if windiows alters the bootloader back on sda - it wont affect grub | 12:14 |
| Dr_Willis | nikitis: thats how i normally do it. | 12:14 |
| markyxyz | Anyone here know if mod_cband is the newer module or is it mod_bw? Maybe both are still being maintained actively? | 12:15 |

| nikitis | Dr_Willis: I'd prefer windows on /dev/sda due to the fuss it gives when it's not on first drive. I think the command is grub-install /dev/sda to rewrite the mbr, but i'm not sure | 12:15 |

| DrGrov | Dr_Willis, it didn't work with the unrar stuff. just the rar was able to extract the files. | 12:15 |
| Guest99331 | any ideas? | 12:15 |
| nikitis | DrGrov: you use the unrar package? | 12:15 |
| === Guest99331 is now known as travis___ | ||
| Dr_Willis | nikitis: i never have any issues with grub on sdb. no fuss at all., actually in some cases the drive you boot from ive seen becomes sda. (that may be bios/mb spefific) | 12:16 |
| Dr_Willis | DrGrov: the rarsoft guys have done some changes that make some archives only work with the newest bersions of their tools | 12:16 |
| hofoen | hi | 12:16 |
| * travis___ remakes question as he changed nick | 12:16 | |
| markyxyz | moijk: download Ubuntu Tweak. At least from there you can change background and the icon | 12:16 |
| travis___ | I wonder how to install a plymouth theme i just built into my machine | 12:17 |
| hofoen | can anyone tell me how to extract multiple zip files into one directory | 12:17 |
| nikitis | Dr_Willis: My windows drive is /dev/sda, And that's the MBR i need to reinstall grub to. My question is however, Does grub-install have to be told which mbr to write to? or does it have to be told where /boot is? | 12:17 |
| DrGrov | Dr_Willis, yes I see that. I had some serious problems to get up some archive which had a newer rar compression. | 12:17 |
| Dr_Willis | travis___: thers some on the repos - you install then run a few commands to change them | 12:17 |
| travis___ | Dr_Willis, i know but i built a cool one and now i have all my files, i just dont know how to make plymouth list the one i built | 12:18 |
| travis___ | Dr_Willis, is this one http://gitorious.org/oskude-plymouth-themes/space-sunrise | 12:18 |
| nikitis | Dr_Willis: All the grub2 guides out there assume windows and ubuntu are on same drive. which is confusing me on what to tell grub-install to do | 12:18 |
| Dr_Willis | http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-do-you-change-the-boot-splash-screen-image-for-10-04-lucid-lynx.html | 12:18 |
| Dr_Willis | nikitis: Ive rarely had theissue.. grub2 setup tools auto see the windows install and add it. grub install to the hd you are booting. and grub handles the rest, | 12:19 |
| travis___ | Dr_Willis, i do it with aptitude even if i built the file locally? | 12:19 |
| markyxyz | nikitis, I didn't have to tell grub2 anything but it got my Linux and Windows drives correctly and boots fine. the previous grub I had to manually map the drives from the config | 12:20 |
| Dr_Willis | travis___: No idea. i rarely mess with plymouth but theres some commands you need to do at that guide to 'rebuild' plymouth into the boot sequence after changeing things | 12:20 |
| travis___ | yep that i know | 12:20 |

| ubottu | grub is the default boot manager for Ubuntu releases before Karmic (9.10). Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto - See !grub2 for Karmic onwards. | 12:22 |

| DrGrov | I am interested to know is there is a NeoGeo emulator for Ubuntu? :) | 12:24 |
| Depravity | I have a question regarding the Netbook remix... I posted it on the forum a few days back and never got a reply. Anyone think they may be able to help? | 12:24 |
| zrin | is the kernel flavor "virtual" for virtualization hosts or for virtual guests? | 12:24 |
| DrGrov | God damn I would love that setup. Having a 42" Full HD LCD tv and playing NeoGeo :) | 12:25 |
| Dr_Willis | DrGrov: has been for some time. Proberly several of them | 12:25 |
| Depravity | .. | 12:25 |
| TheMusicGuy | Is it just me, or does sbackup fail to backup data from an NTFS partition? | 12:25 |
| Depravity | o.O | 12:25 |
| costre | TheMusicGuy, COuld it be that the ntfs partition hasnt been properly unmounted? | 12:26 |
| TheMusicGuy | I have several directories to be backed up, all of which are on different partitions. However, sbackup never seems to make backups of anything on the NTFS partition, even though its the one that gets the most activity. | 12:26 |
| TheMusicGuy | costre: sbackup needs partitions to be mounted in order to make backups of the files on them. | 12:27 |
| Depravity | If I'm running regular 10.04, and I switch to the netbook remix, will I lose my files? | 12:27 |
| costre | TheMusicGuy, Of course :) But I have experienced difficulties with ntfs partitions depending on whether or not they were properly unmounted in the windows session | 12:28 |
| TheMusicGuy | I can access ntfs files fine from other applications. I don't get any errors from either Windows or Ubuntu. | 12:28 |
| DrGrov | Any cool eyecandy for Ubuntu? I want to pimp up my computer. I hope a nVidia GTS250 1GB can handle the most of the eyecandy out there. | 12:28 |

| costre | Depravity, Always macke backups and do a clean slate when installing :) imho | 12:34 |
| Stereocaulon | Depravity, you can just keep your /home partition (if you made that one a separate partition that is...) | 12:34 |
| DrGrov | TheMusicGuy, ok. Will do that. Thanks :) | 12:35 |
| Depravity | Ha netbook makes the backup process terribly long and obnoxious | 12:35 |

| TheMusicGuy | Depravity: or get an external HDD for backup. | 12:36 |
| costre | Depravity, Access another computer and transfer the files. Also, I doubt you need to copy all 68 gigs | 12:36 |
| Depravity | lol Fair enough. | 12:37 |
| costre | also, external drives cost nothing | 12:37 |

| Stereocaulon | dnivra, no not quite, but it is an Adobe product and their plugins are a bit flaky. | 12:53 |
| TheMusicGuy | shashwatpns: well, if you just want to acknowledge that something happened when you plugged it in, assuming its a USB midi adapter you're using, you can type `tail -f /var/log/messages` into a command prompt and watch the output for anything about a MIDI device. Try unplugging it and plugging it in again. | 12:53 |
| erUSUL | bullgard_: no function of that name. find /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.32/ -name '*snd_intel*' | 12:53 |
| moetunes | MACscr_lappy: I do that from a live cd and in a grub terminal - but common sense says to install to sda - but Dr_Willis knows more about it | 12:54 |
| dnivra | Stereocaulon, oh yes I totally agree. | 12:54 |
| TheMusicGuy | shashwatpns: I guess I should have started by asking, how does the MIDI keyboard physically connect to the computer? | 12:55 |
| bullgard_ | erUSUL: '~$ find /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.32/ -name '*snd_intel*'' does not produce any output. | 12:55 |
| DrGrov | How do I get fusion-icon to start on startup? | 12:55 |
| shashwatpns | TheMusicGuy : What do you mean by " Physically Connect" ? | 12:55 |
| DrGrov | The command is fusion-icon? | 12:56 |
| karab444 | I have a problem with my Wacom Wireless tablet, it is discovered and installed by bluetooth but it doesn't work at all | 12:56 |
| Dr_Willis | MACscr_lappy: grub installs to the mbr of the disk you are wanting to boot from. can be any sda sdb sdc.. depends on how you got the bios setup | 12:56 |
| MACscr_lappy | moetunes: i did that, but even using the directions you gave me and combining them with the wiki, its exactly what i did before and windows still just loads automatically with no grub menu ever showing, etc. I have rebooted so many times, reinstalled, no difference. What can i do to verify things before i reboot again | 12:56 |
| Dr_Willis | MACscr_lappy: i got a few pc's where sda is the optical drive. :) | 12:56 |
| karab444 | Do I need any additional drivers ? | 12:56 |
| Stereocaulon | shashwatpns, I guess TheMusicGuy means the plug and the socket "physical connection" | 12:56 |
| Slart | mwmstress: ok, my bad.. I've always dragged and dropped movies on the avidemux window.. there is actually a "Append" option in the File menu you have to use | 12:56 |
| TheMusicGuy | DrGrov: Ubuntu has a configuration utility for running commands when a user logs in. | 12:56 |
| mwmstress | slart, defiantly sure, unless i am that stupid | 12:56 |
| bullgard_ | karab444: "Doesn't work" is not precise description. | 12:56 |
| dnivra | Stereocaulon, even worse is when adobe's 32 bit flash player is a part of 64bit Ubuntu repo and doesn't work. wonder why that is so too? couldn't Ubuntu add 64bit flash to the repo; I agree it is still beta version but they could do it right? | 12:56 |
| moetunes | thnx for helping Dr_Willis :] | 12:56 |
| Stereocaulon | dnivra, Actually it's an Alpha version, not a Beta. | 12:57 |
| shashwatpns | TheMusicGuy & Stereocaulon : I mean Definetly USB | 12:57 |
| mwmstress | slart, ok that worked, thanks | 12:57 |
| dnivra | Stereocaulon, Oops! Sorry got the terms mixed up:). | 12:57 |
| DrGrov | TheMusicGuy, ok. I will try that. I hope it is easy to keep it running. One thing I really want to have from compiz is transparency. | 12:57 |
| MACscr_lappy | Dr_Willis: according to blkid, sda is the windows disk, so i have it setup to that. So if windows is automatically loading then i would assume the bios is setup to load that disk first. So im back to square one | 12:57 |
| TheMusicGuy | DrGrov: it can definitely do that. | 12:58 |
| Bennit | hi | 12:58 |
| Stereocaulon | dnivra, never mind :-) But the 64-bit's version is so buggy that it will crash Firefox more than once. That behaviour is not acceptable in a LTS edition. | 12:58 |
| shashwatpns | TheMusicGuy : I have connected now how do i record? | 12:59 |
| TheMusicGuy | shashwatpns: You want to record the MIDI input, or just the audio of the keyboard speakers? | 12:59 |
| DrGrov | TheMusicGuy, good. I just don't find that setting somewhere in Compiz with the fusion-icon.... :( | 12:59 |
| shashwatpns | MIDI Input | 13:00 |
| shashwatpns | both | 13:00 |
| dnivra | Stereocaulon, it is buggy? I've not experienced much problems. but without an swf player what is the point? gnash and swfdec didn't work very well for me and hence was forced to take this alpha version. | 13:00 |
| TheMusicGuy | shashwatpns: ok. well, there are a wealth of different things you can do with MIDI input. "record" is kind of a vague term here. | 13:00 |
| Stereocaulon | dnivra, True...gnash and swfdec are even worse in performance, but at least they don't crash FF | 13:01 |
| dnivra | Stereocaulon, they don't work either. least for me :(. | 13:01 |
| TheMusicGuy | shashwatpns: its kind of complicated. you will probably begin by starting a JACK server with the command `jackd`. | 13:01 |
| MACscr_lappy | Dr_Willis: i just the boot disk to the ubuntu one and that solved it | 13:02 |
| Stereocaulon | dnivra, It is time to abandon flash in favor of a working alternative. Sadly, that alternative doesn't seem to exist yet. | 13:02 |
| JoshuaL | anyone else having issues with lucid and the java media framework? | 13:02 |
| TheMusicGuy | shashwatpns: From there, you have to start one of the MANY applications available for MIDI input. You can check out Rosegarden, LMMS, ZynAddSubFx, or any combination thereof. | 13:03 |
| dnivra | Stereocaulon, I seriously agree. wish there was one: java applets didn't fancy me much thought they're good. | 13:03 |
| dnivra | Stereocaulon, (and also wonder is they can be put to the same uses) | 13:03 |
| TheMusicGuy | shashwatpns: I find LMMS fairly easy to use and configure. | 13:03 |
| defn | where can i get help on empathy? i have an issue with LCS/OCS pidgin-sipe in empathy. I cannot seem to get the settings right. It looks like from the debug it is attempting to prompt me to accept an unknown root authority which is what happened under pidgin, but empathy never gives me the notification | 13:04 |
| shashwatpns | TheMusicGuy :Ya its really great | 13:04 |
| MACscr_lappy | is it important that i install these ati/amd fglrx drivesr that ubuntu is recommending versus getting ones directly from ati? | 13:04 |
| Stereocaulon | dnivra, Well, programming SMIL (SVG Video) is still in it's nappies, but that might (eventually) provide a working alternative to flash. | 13:05 |
| bullgard_ | defn: You can get help in #empathy of the URL irc://irc.gimp.org/empathy | 13:05 |
| TheMusicGuy | MACscr_lappy: the ones that Ubuntu is recommending probably ARE the ones by ATI. Are they marked as "proprietary", "non-free", etc.? | 13:05 |
| defn | bullgard_: #empathy => empty | 13:05 |
| kandinski | I need to rotate a vieo by 90 degrees; what application can I use for that? | 13:06 |

| danutz | ok guys I have a problem,yesterday I installed VMware workstation and today is nowhere to be found..I searched for it and I found only it`s display driver | 13:06 |
| TheMusicGuy | MACscr_lappy: yeah, I'm betting its the official ATI driver. | 13:06 |
| bullgard_ | s/stetement/statement/ | 13:06 |
| dnivra | Stereocaulon, I hope it evolves soon | 13:07 |
| dnivra | Stereocaulon, and becomes a standard | 13:07 |
| Stereocaulon | dnivra, it would be inventing the wheel again. If only Adobe would release the full specs of Flash, so that we can build a good player an authoring program... | 13:07 |
| dnivra | Stereocaulon, agreed. that is also true. but adobe would never do that right? | 13:07 |
| JIMOR | hi, how can change logon theme ubuntu 10 | 13:08 |

| dnivra | JIMOR, gdm login screen is where you enter you password to login. | 13:08 |
| shashwatpns | anyways TheMusicGuy Stereocaulon thanks thanks for ur help | 13:08 |
| JIMOR | yes | 13:08 |

| danutz | ok guys I have a problem,yesterday I installed VMware workstation and today is nowhere to be found..I searched for it and I found only it`s display driver..can someone help me?? | 13:09 |
| Stereocaulon | dnivra, I'm no so sure. If Apple keeps pressing them, they might eventually do just that. They do have a serious headstart, because they already have a fully functional authoring program | 13:09 |
| dnivra | JIMOR, I suggest you don't do it: i did it in Ubuntu 9.10 and couldn't revert to the old one or change it. | 13:09 |
| acegiak | guys I've a sata hardisk that's not showing up in sudo fdisk -l any ideas why? | 13:10 |
| DrGrov | What could be the problem when I can't change desktop when I have Compiz running? | 13:10 |
| DrGrov | I can't switch | 13:10 |
| dnivra | Stereocaulon, Apple have a headway already? Cool! got any links/info? | 13:10 |
| JIMOR | tnks | 13:10 |
| Stereocaulon | dnivra, Sorry for being ambiguous. Apple does not have Flash authoring software, but Adobe sure does. | 13:11 |
| TheMusicGuy | DrGrov: what do mean by "change desktop"? | 13:11 |
| TheMusicGuy | as in virtual desktops? | 13:11 |
| erUSUL | bullgard_: away for a moment sorry. what you are looking for should be here /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.32/sound/pci/intel8x0.c | 13:11 |
| dnivra | Stereocaulon, oh ok. misread that:). | 13:12 |
| dnivra | Stereocaulon, where does Apple come into the picture then? | 13:12 |
| Stereocaulon | dnivra, Apple is continuously bashing Flash for not being open (says the Kettle(!) ) and detrimental to mobile device battery life | 13:13 |

| remoteCTRL2 | hi guys! how do i reassemble a "broken" raid 5? | 13:29 |
| dabaR | remoteCTRL2: how is it broken, what program do you use to make raid? | 13:30 |
| remoteCTRL2 | dabaR: i had to exchange the mainboard due to a hw failure, after that i reassembled it sploppy now i have one hdd listed as removed if i do sudo mdadm /dev/mapper/raid | 13:31 |
| dabaR | asraniel: did you try #qutecom? | 13:31 |
| remoteCTRL2 | dabaR: does that about answer it? | 13:31 |
| SwedeMike | remoteCTRL2: depends on how the raid5 was created. | 13:31 |
| dabaR | remoteCTRL2: sure | 13:31 |
| bobo123 | something during start of ubuntu makes it slower than before, anyone here that can help me find what I have done wrong? a few days ago it started verry fast, but not now. this is what it writes durring start http://paste.ubuntu.com/434343/ | 13:32 |
| remoteCTRL2 | SwedeMike: dabaR can you create the raid with somethng other than mdadm and monitor it with amdadm then? | 13:32 |
| bobo123 | and this is when exit of ubuntu http://paste.ubuntu.com/434356/ | 13:32 |
| SwedeMike | remoteCTRL2: yes, there are a lot of different raid5:s, motherboard raid (dmraid), hw-dependant raid5 (3ware, areca etc) | 13:33 |
| dabaR | bobo123: how many times did you boot? | 13:33 |
| remoteCTRL2 | (dont get me wrong i'm such a noob to this...) | 13:33 |
| SwedeMike | remoteCTRL2: but if it's md raid, then you have to use mdadm to add back the missing disk | 13:33 |
| dabaR | bobo123: I mean, more than once? | 13:33 |
| remoteCTRL2 | SwedeMike: which is exactly what i am trying to do...? | 13:33 |
| KnightStalker | I still wasn't able to find any documents about changed things in 10.04 can any one give me any links? | 13:34 |
| KnightStalker | Thanks! | 13:34 |
| asraniel | dabaR: jeah just went there | 13:34 |
| bobo123 | dabaR: since it was fast you mean? I don't know it is 2-3 days ago it has acted like this so maybe 10 times.... | 13:34 |
| SwedeMike | remoteCTRL2: yes, so mdadm --manage /dev/md<whatever> --add /dev/<missing drive> | 13:34 |
| dabaR | bobo123: Well, installing a server, that starts at boot, would certainly slow it down | 13:34 |
| bobo123 | dabaR: yes I have started it more than one time in this slow mode | 13:34 |
| asraniel | anybody experiencing crashes with skype? i'm using 64bit ubuntu if that matters. | 13:34 |
| dabaR | bobo123: I would expect that to be the reason | 13:35 |
| remoteCTRL2 | SwedeMike: would it in that case resync the datsa on the drive or erase them all and then resync? | 13:35 |
| meilianie | hi | 13:35 |
| dabaR | remoteCTRL2: basically resync | 13:35 |
| meilianie | hi | 13:35 |
| dabaR | remoteCTRL2: :-) You would hope | 13:35 |
| SwedeMike | remoteCTRL2: no, if you're only missing a single drive then it'll just sync up without losing data (unless you have read errors on the existing drives) | 13:35 |
| bobo123 | dabaR: but I haven't installed a server, not wanting to anyway... perhaps something that I have run have started a server.... how do I find out? | 13:36 |
| dabaR | remoteCTRL2: but backups are always good in these situations, right SwedeMike ? | 13:36 |
| SwedeMike | dabaR: definitely. | 13:36 |
| tittn | hello | 13:36 |
| SwedeMike | raid5 is just an uptime solver, not a replacement for backups. | 13:36 |
| remoteCTRL2 | SwedeMike: erm i believe you got me wrong there dude, this drive was already part of the raid i kjust had "lost" it for a few reboots and now it needs resynchronisation...? | 13:36 |
| dabaR | man, meilianie said hi twice, then left :=/ | 13:36 |
| tittn | is there somebody here that can help me with lib error in the new ubuntu studio ? | 13:37 |

| chu_ | Hey guys, a LaTeX question here: so I was pretty sure I had installed AUCTeX, but apparently not, I have a couple of LaTeX commands for my emacs mode which are sweet - I don't want to lose, but I'm not sure where they come from (apparently not AUCTeX), is there anyway of identifying what LaTeX distribution I have installed? | 13:52 |
| === bullgard__ is now known as bullgard4 | ||
| Dr_Willis | Seveas: ahh so its just set my EDITOR variable somewhere. | 13:52 |
| tax0n | Dr_Willis, using 'sudo update-alternatives --config editor' has given me emacs but now within an xterm as I want it. | 13:53 |
| Dr_Willis | tax0n: but this was as a user.. so theres a user setting some where | 13:53 |
| tax0n | Seveas, thanks - will do. | 13:53 |
| Seveas | Dr_Willis, ~/.selected_editor :) | 13:53 |
| Seveas | mc simpoly launches /usr/bin/editor, which by default is symlinked to sensible-editor, which asks that question and stores ~/.selected_editor. The two ways around it are forcing vim upon everyone via update-alternatives or editing ~/.selected_editor | 13:54 |
| BluesKaj | digitalstimulus, check the mixer and make sure you have audio capture enabled | 13:54 |
| Dr_Willis | cat # Generated by /usr/bin/select-editor | 13:54 |
| Dr_Willis | SELECTED_EDITOR="/usr/bin/vim.basic" | 13:54 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | Is there any way to force nautilus to redraw all of the icons in a folder, specifically a folder full of video files that some have a preview image and some have just a generic movie icon. How can I make it recheck all of them or whatever? | 13:54 |
| Dr_Willis | so run select-editor :) | 13:54 |
| LinuxGuy2009 | Is there a preview cache or something? | 13:55 |
| Dr_Willis | LinuxGuy2009: theres a file size limit i think for generating thumbnails what can differ if its on a local or remote filesystem. F5 refreshes the dir. | 13:56 |
| BluesKaj | digitalstimulus, pulesaudio is merely another sound source layer which to me is completely redundant on my setup at least..perhaps you have a fancier mulitchannel surround setup ,then PA might be of some benefit . | 13:56 |
| === simon_ is now known as Guest64645 | ||
| LinuxGuy2009 | Dr_Willis: Yeah i checked that and I cranked it up to 4GB file size limit and didnt help. Only movie that wont show a preview is my ripped Avatar DVD that I made with HandBrake. No idea why. If I rename the file or extension then it draws one, but as soon as I name it back to Avatar.mp4 it goes back to the basic video icon again. Think this may be a bug or something? | 13:57 |

| KaffeeJunky123 | Dr_Willis: http://www.instantfundas.com/2007/08/install-any-linux-distro-directly-from.html I've followed the advices on this blog page | 14:33 |
| Dr_Willis | clone4ubuntu: mibbit is often used for attacks and stuff | 14:33 |
| Drycola | should I write my nickname instead of 'identify'|> | 14:33 |
| KaffeeJunky123 | Dr_Willis: it's from 2007 so I don't think the grub2 should be necessary | 14:33 |
| actionParsnip | !identify | Drycola | 14:33 |
| ubottu | Drycola: You can identify automatically by using your NickServ password as the server password in your IRC client. When identifying manually, do NOT send the command from a channel's tab, or a typo may give away your password. If that happened, type « /msg NickServ set password <new-password> » in the server tab as soon as possible. | 14:33 |

| patx | ok killall | 15:07 |
| patx | is there like an extenstion for gnome-panel to make it look 3d? or would i have to use like awn or docky? | 15:10 |

| VCoolio | datroubler: either pkill processname or kill processid, or use htop and select the process, then f9 | 15:25 |
| rsk | Vincenzo you can download it from ubuntu.com and it will take about a day or less to download | 15:25 |
| LjL | Vincenzo: it will take about 36 hours | 15:26 |
| LjL | Vincenzo: that's if the modem connects at decent speeds | 15:26 |

| actionParsnip | geekyogi: i'd ask in their respective channels to find out | 15:58 |

| Chaddledee | Ahhh why is the close button on the wrong side? | 15:58 |
| airtonix | !sensors | Otacon22 | 15:58 |
| ubottu | Otacon22: To access CPU temperature sensors and detect fan speeds, install the lm-sensors package. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SensorInstallHowto for installation and usage instructions. | 15:58 |
| costre | Otacon22, iirc it was pretty straight forward to configure that applet, the names of the sensors are a bit cryptic, but you can teel which is which | 15:58 |

| con-man | stefg, I tried it briefly on an hdd install, but went back to hery hardon. It seems lucid lynx attemps to create the illusion of a quick boot time by having everything load after you log in, as opposed to before | 16:34 |
| funkyHat | kourou: in that case it might also be worth trying sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf{,-old} | 16:34 |
| funkyHat | kourou: that moves your xorg.conf out of the way so it won't be read, but you can move it back again to restore your settings | 16:35 |

| llutz | xomp: you said you can ssh into the host, so it IS installed | 16:55 |
| bastid_raZor | xomp: apt-cace policy openssh-server | 16:56 |
| jlanthripp | I just installed ubuntu 10.04 LTS. I got TwinView working for dual heads on my GeForce 4 Ti4400 video card after a little work, part of which involved installing the nvidia-glx driver. Desktop effects aren't working, however. Any ideas on that? | 16:56 |
| bhuvi | Chaddledee, if your network uses static ip then u have to enter it | 16:56 |
| filosofixit | could someone please do a " ls -la .mozilla/plugins " and paste it here please? | 16:56 |
| bastid_raZor | xomp: apt-cache | 16:56 |
| Slart | donaldbrasco: ubuntu won't break because you share a folder.. I seriously doubt the mac will either.. the windows computer already has filesharing enabled by default, I think | 16:56 |
| donaldbrasco | Slart: problem is alot of the tutorials or guides are old and I'm only partially familiar with linux | 16:56 |
| chaoshaxor | hey guys I am having a problem installing ubuntu it hangs at 142% on getting time server | 16:56 |
| chaoshaxor | and when I try via live cd it takes ages when I set my keyboard layout | 16:56 |
| Lasivian | make: *** No rule to make target `menuconfig'. Stop. - oh yeah, this is turning out to be a great morning, lol | 16:56 |
| chaoshaxor | anyone know? | 16:57 |
| actionParsnip | chaoshaxor: did you MD5 test the ISO you downloaded? If you are using a CD, did you check the CD for defects? | 16:57 |
| psuasti | I want a program with which I can download entire websites like sacred-texts.com | 16:57 |
| rui | anyone helpe me to install a printer | 16:57 |
| donaldbrasco | read the beginning of this for instance - makes me nervous ... https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently | 16:57 |
| Slart | donaldbrasco: ok.. want a short tutorial.. find a folder with some files in it.. right click on it.. select "sharing options", check the "Share this folder" checkbox.. ubuntu will tell you it wants to install something.. let it do that.. tadaaa.. finished =) | 16:57 |
| chaoshaxor | Yep action their were no defects | 16:57 |
| jlanthripp | psuasti: try wget | 16:57 |
| Dr_Willis | psuasti: httrack i think can do that. | 16:57 |
| LjL | psuasti: wget can do that. | 16:57 |
| Roland | Hi. How to set a filesystem as unmounted, the partition was not unmounted before shutdown | 16:57 |
| onetinsoldier | psuasti: i think there's a couple like that. 'wget' being one of them | 16:57 |
| Slart | donaldbrasco: oh.. you might want to reboot after ubuntu has installed its thing.. I think it will even pop up a small text box telling you about it as well | 16:58 |
| rui | I have an Lexmark X6690 and a ubuntu 10.04 can anyone helpe me to install a printer | 16:58 |
| donaldbrasco | Slart: haha - thanks ... I did that, though - still can't see anything | 16:58 |
| actionParsnip | chaoshaxor: i suggest you rerun the install but disconnect the network so that it doesnt try to contact any ntp servers | 16:58 |
| greezmunkey | rui | 16:58 |
| Dr_Willis | rui: what have you tried so far to 'install' it? | 16:58 |
| donaldbrasco | networking has always been so complicated to me | 16:58 |
| Slart | donaldbrasco: did you do reboot? | 16:58 |
| donaldbrasco | yes | 16:58 |
| dnivra | hello! I just wanted to say I solved it; please upgrade by running "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade". that solved the problem of missing battery tab in power management. | 16:58 |
| donaldbrasco | this was previously | 16:58 |
| greezmunkey | rui: what is the printer interface, usb ethernet, or shared from another computer. | 16:58 |
| chaoshaxor | thing is Action is that I have a pci wireless card | 16:58 |
| chaoshaxor | will it try and connect with that? | 16:58 |
| rui | is usb | 16:58 |
| donaldbrasco | I've already been screwing around with this for awhile | 16:59 |
| filosofixit | could someone who has the latest sun-java6-plugin from the repo installed please do a ls -la .mozilla/plugins and paste the result (symlink) here/to me? | 16:59 |
| rui | greezmunkey :is usb | 16:59 |
| greezmunkey | rui: is it plugged in? | 16:59 |
| rui | yes | 16:59 |
| xomp | bastid_raZor, it shows it as installed | 16:59 |
| donaldbrasco | brbr | 16:59 |
| rui | greezmunkey :yes | 16:59 |
| Slart | donaldbrasco: I just did it on my laptop and desktop.. worked without any other configuration.. both computers on ubuntu 10.04 | 16:59 |
| greezmunkey | rui: type lsusb in a terminal, see what you find. | 16:59 |
| Chaddledee | Its actually ridiculous. | 16:59 |
| bastid_raZor | xomp: what is the error you get when trying to connect from the windows side? | 16:59 |
| bhuvi | Chaddledee, could u connect | 17:00 |
| Chaddledee | Internet has.slowly become more and more troublesome. | 17:00 |
| krb5 | hey guys. Anyone know if (and why) amanda server doesn't appear to be compiled with krb5 support enabled? ldd on a few binaries seems to verify it, but no idea how accurate a test that might be. | 17:00 |
| Chaddledee | Trying something now. | 17:00 |
| Chaddledee | H'm | 17:00 |
| Chaddledee | Well that's new. | 17:00 |
| Chaddledee | Yes! | 17:00 |
| Chaddledee | And I have nets. | 17:01 |
| Vital{ReBorN} | Hey | 17:01 |
| Chaddledee | Baddaswing! | 17:01 |
| donaldbrasco | how do you stop this window from scrolling down all the time - I can't keep up | 17:01 |
| chaoshaxor | Ok I am having this problem, when I try and install ubuntu via the windows gui, when I boot into ubuntu it goes to 142% trying to retrive time server, and when I use live cd it hangs on setting keyboard layout. I did use ubuntu before, but I deleted it and did a fresh format | 17:01 |
| donaldbrasco | geez | 17:01 |
| rui | greezmunkey: i have six device | 17:01 |
| jlanthripp | donaldbrasco: What IRC client are you using? | 17:01 |
| caac | hi there, i'd like to use gloobus preview, this requires me to have nautilus elementary and ofcourse the gloobuspreview installed, but i'd like to always use the stable versions of both, and all i can find are PPA's for both of them | 17:01 |
| Chaddledee | I blacklisted some stuff and did some on boot stuff. | 17:01 |
| actionParsnip | filosofixit: you could try: sudo find / -iname "libnpjp2.so" | 17:01 |
| donaldbrasco | conversation | 17:01 |
| Chaddledee | And it works :D | 17:01 |
| LjL | donaldbrasco: have you tried scrolling up? | 17:02 |
| Chaddledee | Thank for the help bhuvi | 17:02 |
| Galaxor | After upgrading to 10.04, mt-daapd no longer works. I ran it in max-debug-mode and saw no activity as I tried to connect to it from itunes. | 17:02 |
| filosofixit | actionParsnip, should the symlink-name in the plugins dir. be libpjp2.so also? | 17:02 |
| greezmunkey | rui: Hmm, does that printer have an Ethernet connector? | 17:02 |
| xomp | bastid_raZor, http://img580.imageshack.us/img580/323/sftp.jpg | 17:02 |
| donaldbrasco | yeah - keeps pulling me back down everytime someone says something | 17:02 |
| jlanthripp | oh. Never tried that one. You should be able to scroll up, and it'll stay where it is until you scroll back down | 17:02 |
| fnordsniff | hallo | 17:02 |
| actionParsnip | filosofixit: i personally use the .bin file and put it in /opt for 64bit java rather than nspluginwrapper java | 17:02 |
| fnordsniff | hello | 17:02 |
| LjL | donaldbrasco: weird, it doesn't do that for me. when you said conversation, you meant konversation? on lucid? | 17:02 |
| Vital{ReBorN} | I'm on a 56k connection, I set everything up fine, But when I use pon, or wvdial I can only use firefox, I can't use pidgin or anything, Anyway to set up an actual dialup connection? | 17:02 |
| onetinsoldier | donaldbrasco: just sroll up a little | 17:02 |
| Galaxor | Can I see an svn-diff of the mt-daapd package between karmic and lucid? Are there branch names I should use? | 17:03 |
| rui | greezmunkey:she is wireless and have an usb port | 17:03 |
| donaldbrasco | shoot - meant empathy | 17:03 |
| actionParsnip | filosofixit: yes, wait til it finds stuff then symlink the file and restart the browser to test, if not then delete the link | 17:03 |
| LjL | donaldbrasco: oh. don't know about empathy | 17:03 |
| Colonel-Rosa | Hi, does anyone know how to have SSH prompt for a passphrase when connecting to a server? | 17:03 |
| caac | any help plz? | 17:03 |
| greezmunkey | rui: You will probably have to share that printer from a windows PC, as driver support is non-existant as I can see. Do you have a windows box that you can install it on? | 17:03 |
| filosofixit | actionParsnip, thanks! I will give it a go :) | 17:03 |
| Colonel-Rosa | I have to ssh-add now, I swear it was automatic before | 17:03 |
| Galaxor | Also, I don't know where to get the info on connecting to ubuntu's svn. OH! They use bzr, don't they. | 17:03 |
| onetinsoldier | donaldbrasco: just scroll up a little in xchat. whenever i scroll up a little and leave it, the windows stops moving down even when people post new messages | 17:03 |
| HTT-Bird | oof...how do you copy a whole folder (collection) from a WebDAV share to your local machine? (the obvious way just copies the collection's index.html file over) | 17:04 |
| bastid_raZor | xomp: ssh localhost ,, try that from the ubuntu side.. can you connect to yourself from inside ubuntu? | 17:04 |
| HTT-Bird | Galaxor: yeah, LP uses Bazaar | 17:04 |
| teiczer | Hi, who know how to make ubuntu lesser than 1.5GB? | 17:04 |
| Bert- | When I have to register myself to a windows share, the default domain is workgroup. I'm on a local domain. How can I register to this domain AND/OR change default Domain to the one I want ? | 17:04 |
| tahrenyie85 | hi, i cannot use my wireless device, can any 1 help me? (i am using ubuntu 10.04, cq40 compaq laptop) | 17:04 |
| xomp | bastid_raZor, I can ssh from the ubuntu side just fine | 17:04 |
| rui | greezmunkey:helpe me to install a windows box | 17:04 |
| Bert- | !domain | 17:04 |
| Slart | teiczer: start with the minimal cd.. install only the stuff you need | 17:04 |
| donaldbrasco | this is dumb - gotta try another irc client - brb | 17:04 |
| Lasivian | ok, I have no wireless showing up in ifconfig, any easy way to see why? | 17:04 |
| Bert- | !pdc | 17:04 |
| Vital{ReBorN} | I'm on a 56k connection, I set everything up fine, But when I use pon, or wvdial I can only use firefox, I can't use pidgin or anything, Anyway to set up an actual dialup connection? | 17:04 |
| Slart | teiczer: I think you can go a long way by just avoiding openoffice, for example | 17:04 |
| teiczer | i did, but need more space | 17:04 |
| Bert- | !domaincontroller | 17:05 |
| Bert- | !domaincontroller | Bert- | 17:05 |
| teiczer | i am without everything exept firefox | 17:05 |
| greezmunkey | rui: A PC running Windows? The question is do you have one. | 17:05 |
| rui | a laptop | 17:05 |
| bastid_raZor | xomp: i've never seen an error of that sorts before. | 17:05 |
| HTT-Bird | teiczer: replace firefox with a lighter weight web browser such as dillo | 17:05 |
| actionParsnip | Vital{ReBorN}: change your DNS servers in /etc/resolv.conf to 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 then try the apps again | 17:05 |
| tahrenyie85 | hi, i cannot use my wireless device, can any 1 help me? (i am using ubuntu 10.04, cq40 compaq laptop) | 17:05 |
| xomp | bastid_raZor, yeah, it has me stumped :( | 17:05 |
| woodyjlw | this bluetooth is driving me nuts on 10.04 , I set it to visable and change the friendly name and connect my BT mouse it it works fine till I reboot or sleep and then wake. is there any way to fix this? I need it to stay visable and save friendly name | 17:05 |
| neezer | oCean_: with a restart i'm still getting the same thing...it works just fine on my windows machine with itunes. | 17:05 |
| rui | greezmunkey: its my girlfriend laptop | 17:05 |
| Slart | teiczer: hmm.. not sure what else takes up a lot of space.. you can check package sizes in synaptic | 17:06 |
| teiczer | does it have xmarks? plugit whith can synchronize my bookmarks with 3rd party server | 17:06 |
| chaoshaxor | Hello everyone listen to me, My install is hanging on Retrieving time server also with live cd it takes ages on each step | 17:06 |
| actionParsnip | tietze: arora is good too and handles the latest web technologies :) | 17:06 |
| chaoshaxor | how long should it take for each step? | 17:06 |
| greezmunkey | rui: that will do. Can you connect the laptop to your ubuntu box via ethernet? | 17:06 |
| chaoshaxor | out of the 7 | 17:06 |
| chaoshaxor | I have a quad core it is not like I am weak on cpu | 17:06 |
| Lasivian | i'm trying to get ATH9k working on an atheros card and i'm not getting any errors but it's not showing any wireless at all | 17:06 |
| Vital{ReBorN} | actionParsnip: If I do that, I can connect to pidgin via wvdial? | 17:06 |
| bastid_raZor | xomp: i'm googling now and it seems it is a common error | 17:07 |
| bhuvi | Chaddledee, u r welcome | 17:07 |
| Lasivian | :modprobe ath9k" just gets this: "WARNING: All config files need .conf: /etc/modprobe.d/ndiswrapper, it will be ignored in a future release. | 17:07 |
| Lasivian | " | 17:07 |
| teiczer | I'm running mu ubu from 4GB pendrive and i want to have much more space to work with ubuntu | 17:07 |
| rui | greezmunkey:i have a rooter thatis wireless he gives via hire to the destop and wireless to the laptop | 17:07 |
| Lasivian | dmesg | grep ath gives me nothing | 17:07 |
| actionParsnip | Vital{ReBorN}: should do, the file is generated so changing it doesn't matter, if its bad just reboot | 17:07 |
| actionParsnip | Lasivian: sudo mv /etc/modprobe.d/ndiswrapper /etc/modprobe.d/ndiswrapper.conf | 17:08 |
| Vital{ReBorN} | Okay, Thanks | 17:08 |
| greezmunkey | rui: Ok, good. That should work. Get your laptop connected to the router, as well as your ubuntu box. Connect the printer to the laptop, and share it in control panel, ok. | 17:09 |
| Lasivian | actionParsnip: thanks, that got rid of the error, rebooting to check the network | 17:09 |
| rui | greezmunkey:thank you | 17:09 |
| teiczer | Ok, done, Ubuntu cant be lesser than 2.2GB ;) | 17:09 |
| ChickenStudios | So I have my HD mounted in the LiveCD, how to I run update-grub on that HD? | 17:10 |
| Lasivian | still just wired in ifconfig | 17:10 |
| greezmunkey | rui: once you have all of that set up let us know. | 17:10 |
| Dr_Willis | teiczer: Lubuntu is smaller.. but less functions | 17:10 |
| rui | greezmunkey: ok | 17:10 |
| teiczer | how to make full iso from system? i need this pendrive to test more distros and make them lesser | 17:10 |
| nke | could anyone please tell me, why is it that my internet _only_ works if Firestarter is installed, opened and turned *OFF*? This doesn't make any sense. | 17:11 |
| Dr_Willis | teiczer: ive seen some remaster scripts at various sites. but never tried them | 17:11 |
| Vital{ReBorN} | nke: Sounds like your computers haunted | 17:11 |
| Dr_Willis | nke: check your iptables rules befor/after/during | 17:11 |
| flyeng4 | can some one help me with this network setup: http://pastebin.com/YeNymFZT. I am trying to access the interenet from the beagleboard which is plugged into my laptop as interface usb0 | 17:11 |
| nke | Dr_Willis, how do I do that? | 17:11 |
| Dr_Willis | firestarter off - proberly clears out all the rules.. | 17:11 |
| Dr_Willis | nke: sudo iptables --list - You may want to read up on linux firewals and how they work | 17:12 |
| Dr_Willis | !firewall | nke | 17:12 |
| ubottu | nke: 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. | 17:12 |
| nke | oh man! | 17:12 |
| nke | i cant do all that | 17:12 |
| Dr_Willis | nke: for a home pc. you proberly dont enve need a firewall | 17:12 |
| xomp | bastid_raZor, it's a common error you say? | 17:12 |
| HTT-Bird | nke: do you have a router of some sort between you and the Internet? | 17:12 |
| Dr_Willis | nke: sudo iptables --flush clears out all the rules. | 17:12 |
| nke | ok thanks | 17:12 |
| nibbler | flyeng4, do you have the beaglebord configured to use the laptop as default gw (route add default gw 192.168.0.1), and ip-masquerading/forwarding configured? | 17:13 |
| Dr_Willis | nke: and why CANT you do all that? if you want to learn/use firewalls you should learn about them | 17:13 |
| flyeng4 | nibbler: 192.168.0.0 192.168.0.1 255.255.255.255 UGH 0 0 0 usb0 | 17:13 |
| flyeng4 | nibbler: that's the output from route | 17:13 |
| irwan | hi all | 17:13 |
| flyeng4 | nibbler: but i also have another line that I can't seem to be able to delete but I don't knwo fi I need to | 17:14 |
| nibbler | flyeng4, you need to set the default gw then, see my command | 17:14 |
| flyeng4 | nibbler: 192.168.0.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 usb0 | 17:14 |
| flyeng4 | nibbler: now do i set the default gateway | 17:14 |
| AhmedBH | Hi, i have a issue, when i set my monitor @ 1028x1024 after a stupid restart its back to default at 1024768 , How do i permanent set that to a 17" as default @_@ xrandr ? | 17:14 |
| AhmedBH | i use KDE control Module by the way | 17:14 |
| flyeng4 | nibbler: the output of route has no default line? | 17:14 |
| slow-motion | hi | 17:14 |
| HTT-Bird | grrrr...did I just stump the channel? lol | 17:14 |
| bastid_raZor | xomp: well, i found quite a few hits on it.. most said password had expired on the server side. some say permissions error on ~/ which makes no sense. | 17:14 |
| nibbler | flyeng4, nope, target for default is 0.0.0.0 | 17:15 |
| xomp | bastid_raZor, hmm, I opened a support ticket with the host, hopefully they can get it sorted :3 | 17:15 |
| Lasivian | what would stop the wireless lan from showing up in ifconfig at all? | 17:16 |
| HTT-Bird | Lasivian: check your dmesg | 17:16 |
| Lasivian | nothing in there for the device/driver at all | 17:17 |
| === administrator is now known as Guest3421 | ||
| greezmunkey | Lasivian: what do you see if you type iwconfig? | 17:18 |
| flyeng4 | nibbler: so I now added a default line and made the gw 192.168.0.1, but I'm still unable to ping the outside world | 17:18 |
| Roland | if I mount something with the mount command on commandline, does it get unmounted automatically before shutdown? | 17:18 |
| Lasivian | lo/eth/pan no wireless extensions on all 3 | 17:18 |
| AhmedBH | whats the latest version of linux kernal | 17:18 |
| yupe | hi all | 17:18 |
| AhmedBH | hi yupe | 17:18 |
| actionParsnip | AhmedBH: go to www.kernel.org to find out | 17:19 |
| jamil_1 | Hi, Whenever I do: "apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 45FFBBBA" I get keyserver time out, is there a way to do this manually ? | 17:19 |
| greezmunkey | Lasivian: then the problem is likely with driver(s) | 17:19 |
| Etere | hi | 17:19 |
| actionParsnip | AhmedBH: latest on repo is | 17:19 |
| Lasivian | when I tried to recompile the previous madwifi kernel it complained about no wireless extensions too | 17:19 |
| greezmunkey | Lasivian: what type of interface is it? usb? | 17:19 |
| actionParsnip | !info linux-image | AhmedBH | 17:19 |
| Lasivian | Aspire One atherois | 17:19 |
| Lasivian | -i | 17:19 |
| andrewa | heya, is this a good place to get install help for 10.04? | 17:19 |
| Lasivian | built in, shows up in lspci | 17:19 |
| HTT-Bird | andrewa: you are in the right place :) | 17:19 |
| ubottu | AhmedBH: linux-image (source: linux-meta): Generic Linux kernel image.. In component main, is optional. Version 2.6.32.22.23 (lucid), package size 3 kB, installed size 32 kB (Only available for i386 amd64 lpia all armel) | 17:20 |
| Lasivian | was previously working before I tried to get ATH9K working and broke everything | 17:20 |
| nibbler | flyeng4, yep, cause your laptop is not setup as a router. first echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ip_forward (or something like this path, file name is correct) and then setup ip masquerading. but for all this there is some package i believe.... | 17:20 |
| actionParsnip | Lasivian: which aspire one do you have? | 17:20 |
| yupe | can u tell me, where to download driver vga intel graphic??? | 17:20 |
| [fade] | yupe intel.com | 17:20 |
| Etere | can anyone help me? When I boot linux the xserve do not load, also the nvidia-driver. To start xfce I have to run sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restar | 17:20 |
| greezmunkey | Lasivian: I would paste the exact verbiage returned with lspci, adding "ubuntu" into google, see what you find there. | 17:20 |
| yupe | what | 17:20 |
| irwan | ** (emacs:3437): CRITICAL **: murrine_style_draw_box: assertion `height >= -1' failedi am on 10.4 64bit. I just installed emacs via the terminal and launches the application. Something is bugging me with the message | 17:20 |
| actionParsnip | yupe: run lspci | grep -i vga websearch for the chip you have | 17:20 |
| flyeng4 | nibbler: ok thanks | 17:20 |
| HTT-Bird | yupe: you neeed xorg-xserver-video-intel or something like that :) | 17:20 |
| [fade] | yupe go to intels website and download intel drivers | 17:20 |
| HTT-Bird | (it should be installed actually) | 17:20 |
| ForgeAus | well I found out | 17:20 |
| HTT-Bird | [fade]: they're in Synaptic already :P | 17:21 |
| Lasivian | actionParsnip: 110l | 17:21 |
| Etere | I Have an nvidia gt130 deidcated graphic | 17:21 |
| moes | lucid 10.04....Is there a trash folder in root...If so how do I open | 17:21 |
| yupe | ok ty | 17:21 |
| ForgeAus | I can just use mount -o bind /dir dir/ (where dir is home or / host/ etc for chrooting!) | 17:21 |
| HTT-Bird | moes: probably not :) | 17:21 |
| AhmedBH | actionParsnip: i am downloading it, i am on 64bit will it be x64 ? stable: 2.6.33.4 2010-05-12 this version | 17:21 |
| ewp | is it possible to reduce the size of a dvd, perhaps using a different codec? | 17:21 |
| ForgeAus | then proc and sys and dev have to be handled | 17:21 |
| Lasivian | i'm thinking the "script" I tried with the first set of ATH9K drivers mucked up something in my kernel, but I don't know enough to fix it :S | 17:21 |

| ewp | is it possible to reduce the size of a dvd, perhaps using a different codec? using avidemux or devede | 17:22 |

| andrewa | HTT-Bird, thanks: I have an old laptop Toshiba Satellite, i tried the install disk, and it just results on a blank screen after the initial boot screen. I used the vga=771 command in the help, and now i see some text. It only makes it two lines in: | 17:22 |
| nibbler | flyeng4, the masquerding is something like: iptables -P FORWARD ACCEPT; iptables -t nat -I POSTROUTING -j MASQUERADE - this is quiet save if your laptop is behind a homerouter itself, it is has direct internet there might be some security issues arising with this basic setup... | 17:22 |
| andrewa | AC | 17:22 |
| yupe | run lspci | grep -i vga run not found | 17:22 |
| actionParsnip | AhmedBH: it will be source from www.kernel.org so you can compile as you wish | 17:22 |
| HTT-Bird | yupe: o.o just type "lspci | grep -i vga" minus the quotes | 17:22 |
| panzer | Just rebooted the switch my machine is connected to. That port worked before the reboot. Now I am continuing to get media disconnected on the port and I had to switch to another port. Any solution? | 17:22 |

| actionParsnip | AhmedBH: yes, its source code | 17:23 |
| Lasivian | yeah, i've been over all the old information, this WAS working previously, while that's good info on setting it up from scratch it fails now because something is broken and I don't know what | 17:23 |
| Dr_Willis | ewp: and still have it playable on a normal dvd player? thats doable - ive seen 5+ hrs of poor quality video fit on a normal dvd. | 17:23 |

| yupe | i change at xorg.conf | 17:25 |
| flyeng4 | HTT-Bird: there is an expansion board you can buy for it, but even then I would want to use my laptop to access the internet form it | 17:25 |
| nibbler | flyeng4, well what i told you should work, but maybe (dont know how this usb network works etc) it might be enough to set the default gw to your router (try pinging your router from the device, if it responds this will be enough) | 17:25 |
| yupe | is not work | 17:25 |
| AhmedBH | Sorry i have no clue | 17:25 |
| HTT-Bird | flyeng4: well, you'll have to set up your laptop to route traffic to/from it out to the wide world :) | 17:26 |

| sr_rules | iceman: sudo apt-get purge apache2 | 17:31 |
| kourou | funkyHat: my last post is wrong, in fact : sudo echo "blacklist nouveau" >> /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf is 'Permission refused', HTT-Bird suggest sudo su - ? | 17:31 |
| sr_rules | then sudo apt-get install apache2 | 17:31 |

| HTT-Bird | the term "firewall" comes from automotive and aviation usage, where it refers to a partition in the craft that is designed to resist the effects of the engine catching on fire | 17:53 |
| HTT-Bird | and protect the passengers/crew from such an engine fire | 17:53 |
| HTT-Bird | filosofixit: yes :) that is the correct driver | 17:53 |

| HTT-Bird | how does one copy a collection from a WebDAV enabled share to one's local machine? (drag n' drop copies the index.html file over, which is not The Right Thing (TM)) | 17:56 |
| costre | If you block ALL traffic except for one or a few trusted IP-addresses, is it then IMPOSSIBLE to get access to your computer? (except if the attacker gets hold of the trusted computers?) | 17:56 |
| DCGstudios | nicholas__, do you know if your using grub2? or the older legacy grub? | 17:57 |
| nicholas__ | How do I check? I think Grub 2. | 17:57 |

| bhuvi | nicholas__, maybe u have to check this out https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IncidentReports/2010-04-29-Late-respin-for-bug-570765 | 17:59 |
| DCGstudios | nicholas__, if your in ubuntu right now, open terminal and run, 'cd /boot/grub' then enter, then run 'ls -a | grep menu.lst' | 17:59 |
| ShawnRisk | I am going crazy with Ubuntu 10.04, and how sure how to fix all the problems. | 18:00 |
| HTT-Bird | costre: they can spoof IPs :P | 18:00 |
| d3javu | hi all | 18:00 |
| DCGstudios | nicholas__, if you have no output on the 2nd command your likley using grub2, if you do see a menu.lst in the output your still using the legacy grub | 18:00 |
| HTT-Bird | and there are other techniques that can be used as well | 18:00 |
| nicholas__ | I am using grub2 | 18:00 |
| MadEchidna | okay Aptitude seems to be able to ignore the errors but they are not resolved | 18:00 |

| monk80 | why do you have to create a new user when installing server? server users is not necessarily using it, right? | 18:01 |
| DCGstudios | costre, genreally if you use nmap and assure ally our ports are closed and you deny the correct hosts in '/etc/hosts.deny' your generally safe. 'spoofing IP' is ineffective | 18:01 |
| monk80 | server admins perhaps :) | 18:01 |

| DCGstudios | Luija, did this problem come up during a dist-upgrade? | 18:10 |
| Talu | airtonix: Hmm? | 18:10 |
| Luija | DCGstudios: I think it came because I turned off in a wrong way my laptop and when the system was checking for system errors I canceled | 18:10 |
| TheGrammarFreak | airtonix, thanks very muchly | 18:10 |
| airtonix | Talu, you can't write to /usr without permission, running that will give you a nautilus window running as the root user. | 18:10 |

GUI frontends such as Firestarter/Gufw (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE) also exist. | 18:11 |

| dabaR | salil: not by default, but, no ports are open by default. As apps install themselves on ports, the firewall makes way for that | 18:12 |

| flan_suse | Lasivian: The netbook? | 18:26 |
| rangua | sorry, i'm trying out gufw, but when i add the rule to allow out connections on port 80, i only get google working... not even wiki.. | 18:26 |
| Lasivian | yes, i'm running 9.04 | 18:26 |
| dabaR | markus_: Ya | 18:26 |
| mom_ | test34, im in a user's account i did su myusername then typed it | 18:26 |
| flan_suse | Lasivian: I think I have the same exact netbook running Jaunty... | 18:27 |
| JAGFin1 | Can anyone help me with a mousepad/keyboard problem I'm having on my laptop? | 18:27 |
| test34 | mom_, that is probably the problem | 18:27 |
| DCGstudios | LuisJa, sorry i was in a PM window didnt see you came back, do you happen to have a seperate /home partition set up? | 18:27 |
| flan_suse | Lasivian: Give me a second, I need to check something. | 18:27 |
| Lasivian | flan_suse: ath9k seemed to compile properly, and "modprobe ath9k" gives no errors, but when I tried to recompile Madwifi before when everything was broke it said I had no wireless extensions | 18:27 |
| Zelozelos | JAGFin1, its better to state the problem you're having | 18:27 |
| flan_suse | Lasivian: You can't use both. It's one or the other. | 18:27 |
| JAGFin1 | You have a point | 18:27 |
| flan_suse | Lasivian: Be back in a few. | 18:28 |
| dabaR | test34: good call | 18:28 |
| mom_ | test34, what is? | 18:28 |
| Lasivian | flan_suse: I think the ath9k script I used did something to the kernel, but i'm not sure what, right now i'm just trying to get *any* wifi working | 18:28 |
| dabaR | mom_: that you switched users | 18:28 |
| JAGFin1 | I recently installed 10.6 on my HP laptop, worked fine, but I was playing with the mouselock button (above the mousepad) which locked the mouse. I depressed it, but the mouse still remains inactive | 18:28 |
| dabaR | your user does not have access to the GUI, cause the other user is using the GUI | 18:28 |
| test34 | mom_, that user probably dont have access to the GUI, you could use sudo instead (with apt-get) | 18:28 |
| tux_ | how i recover my x environment ? pplz i need a solution | 18:28 |
| LuisJa | DCGstudios: Well... when I installed 10.04 (I have used Kubuntu since 8.04) I used the entire disk option installation from the Live CD, dont know if that answers your question | 18:28 |
| JAGFin1 | I turned the laptop off and managed to get it to work on the login screen, but whern gnome loads up, the mouse locks out | 18:28 |
| mom_ | test34, my account is the sudo user, thats the one i switched to | 18:29 |
| Zelozelos | JAGFin1, did you try and restart the sys? | 18:29 |
| LuisJa | DCGstudios: I hope yes, I never payed attention with the home partition hahaha | 18:29 |
| JAGFin1 | Zelozelos: yes, | 18:29 |
| Slart | mom_: tried using gksu instead of su? | 18:29 |
| test34 | mom_, use sudo apt-get or login to X11 with that user instead | 18:29 |
| DCGstudios | LuisJa, are you on a fresh install at the moment? (with your files backed up, or not wanted on that partition' | 18:29 |
| JAGFin1 | Login screen works fine, but when everything else loads up, the mouse locks and is inactive | 18:29 |
| mom_ | Slart, yes gksudo synaptic | 18:29 |
| flan_suse | Lasivian: What is the output of this: modprobe -l ath9k | 18:29 |

| Sensiva | What is the appropriate filesystem to host an Ubuntu archive mirror? | 18:30 |
| JAGFin1 | Sensiva: ext3 I'd assume | 18:30 |
| mom_ | test34, but i had the same issue with 9.10 and someone here told me to type something and it worked from then on out | 18:30 |
| LuisJa | DCGstudios: I think yes, because I formated everything for the new 10.04 installation, but it got damaged because i turned the laptop in a wrong way... i dont know if that can still be considered fresh lol | 18:30 |
| Lasivian | flan_suse: updates/drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/ath9k.ko | 18:30 |

| tux_ | how i recover my x environment ? pplz i need a solution | 18:30 |
| flan_suse | Lasivian: And do you have the ath_pci module blacklisted? You can check in this file: /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-ath_pci.conf | 18:31 |
| dabaR | your user does not have access to the GUI, cause the other user is using the GUI? | 18:31 |
| mom_ | Slart, maybe it was over 7 months ago when 9.10 was released | 18:31 |
| JAGFin1 | Sensiva: that's a negative | 18:31 |
| dabaR | sorry, wrong send | 18:31 |
| kev_ | tux_, What do you mean? | 18:31 |
| dabaR | tux_: ya, what does that mean? | 18:31 |
| Zelozelos | JAGFin1, do you have the mousetrap thingy? perhaps you locked the mouse there, if not, you can try and add another account and see if its simply a messed up setting, then its a matter of finding that setting n deleting it (i think anyhow) | 18:31 |
| DCGstudios | LuisJa, well generally fresh just means that you have nothing personal that you would have to backup.. honestly there could be many problems that come up from file locks (incorrect shutdowns) and a bad idea to skip file check after an event like that | 18:31 |

| Slart | mom_: try running "xhost +<username of the user you su to>" | 18:32 |
| kev_ | tux_, Maybe its a good idea to tell us how exactly u crashed your x | 18:32 |
| Sensiva | JAGFin1 thank you, but I need a technical detailed answer for how to choose the appropriate filesystem | 18:32 |
| JAGFin1 | I do have a feeling that a conf was messed up somewhere | 18:32 |
| xangua | ShawnRisk: right clic on the network icon> edit conections | 18:32 |
| flan_suse | Lasivian: Okay, and double-check that it's not loaded: lsmod | grep ath_pci | 18:32 |
| DCGstudios | LuisJa, If i were you, since your really dont even know how many problems it caused and your still on a fresh install, i woud take 20 minutes to just reinstall. But i may consider doing partitions a little different this time if you plan on using linux for the long term. | 18:32 |
| Slart | mom_: ie xhost +bob_the_great if that's the user you're su-ing to | 18:32 |
| Lasivian | flan_suse: no output | 18:32 |
| Zelozelos | JAGFin1, its an area on a panel that you can trap your mouse pointer, also try and rapidly press/depress the button, maybe itll un-confuse it | 18:32 |
| flan_suse | Lasivian: And ath9k is loaded? | 18:32 |
| Lasivian | flan_suse: "lsmod | grep ath" returns nothing | 18:32 |
| Slart | mom_: not sure if you need to run that as root or just as your regular user.. try as the regular user first | 18:32 |
| mawst | What might cause my gtk themes to not be applied when I run openbox? | 18:32 |
| mom_ | Slart so xhost username? | 18:33 |

| JAGFin1 | Zelozelos: I'll give it a try. This hasn't seemed to be a problem before when I've used it | 18:33 |
| Slart | mom_: xhost +username | 18:33 |

| Lasivian | flan_suse: if by "loaded" you mean "modprobe ath9k" retuyrns no errors, yes | 18:33 |
| mom_ | Slart, xhost: bad hostname "username" | 18:33 |
| Lasivian | oh, whoa, I goofed | 18:33 |
| DCGstudios | LuisJa, Are the files on that same partition? | 18:33 |
| Lasivian | flan_suse: lsmod was not run as root, one moment please | 18:33 |
| LuisJa | DCGstudios: yes.. :( | 18:33 |
| Slart | mom_: change username to whatever your other user is called | 18:33 |
| flan_suse | Lasivian: lsmod doesn't need to be run as root. | 18:34 |
| Zelozelos | JAGFin1, there is also an option to lock the mousepad when typing, it may be a combination of things that caused an error | 18:34 |
| mom_ | Slart, xhost: bad hostname "otherusername" | 18:34 |
| flan_suse | Lasivian: lsmod lists currently loaded modules. You can check if it's loaded with: lsmod | grep ath9k | 18:34 |

| LuisJa | DCGstudios: " But i may consider doing partitions a little different this time if you plan on using linux for the long term." why? | 18:40 |
| DCGstudios | LuisJa, Well, you can just create a 25GB partition for your system and your programs.. and use the rest of the hard drive in a seperate partition which is specified as your /home.. so that way you can just reinstall the entire system and never lose your configurations or files.. | 18:40 |

| flan_suse | Lasivian: A couple things I can think of then: Install the linux-backports-modules-jaunty and then reboot (but first blacklist ath9k and ath_pci), or compile the ath5k driver from source. | 18:47 |

| flan_suse | Lasivian: Before anything else, blacklist ath_pci and ath9k, UNblacklist ath5k, and go ahead and try installing the linux-backports-modules-jaunty package, reboot, and see if it works. | 18:49 |
| Lasivian | flan_suse: ok, doing that now. Can the ath9k blacklist be added to any existing blaclist file? | 18:49 |
| flan_suse | Lasivian: If not, you'll have to compile ath5k from source to be used with the 2.6.30 kernel. | 18:49 |
| flan_suse | Lasivian: Yeah, as long as the file name ends in .conf. Any line that reads blacklist modulename will blacklist that module. | 18:50 |

| flan_suse | Lasivian: I might have to leave for a while. If you decide to try and compile from source, follow this guide: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-get-atheros-ar5007eg-or-ar242x-wireless-cards-may-be-other-models-working-in-ubuntu-810-intrepid-ibex.html | 18:54 |
| Lasivian | flan_suse: thanks | 18:54 |
| flan_suse | Lasivian: And the latest version of the source is the very first file in this list: http://wireless.kernel.org/download/compat-wireless-2.6/ (from May 15th) | 18:54 |
| DCGstudios | LuisJa, 25gb will be plenty unless your running like 10+ commercial applications.. | 18:54 |
| flan_suse | Lasivian: Interesting. | 18:54 |
| AhmedBH | I cannot keep my display resolution on KDE after every damn restart it gets back to default I'm so pissed off >_< ANY help seriously | 18:55 |
| DCGstudios | LuisJa, You want to have 2 seperate ext3 or ext4 formatted partitions | 18:55 |
| n0mad | could anyone tell me how to stream audio or video files in a playlist? | 18:55 |
| Lasivian | flan_suse: I can't say why exactly, maybe my years of windows troubleshooting is bleeding over, is there an easy way to check that? | 18:55 |
| flan_suse | Lasivian: If mac80211 is disabled? | 18:55 |
| Lasivian | flan_suse: yes | 18:56 |
| flan_suse | Lasivian: I think it loaded fine with ath9k, so it would also load with ath5k likewise. | 18:56 |
| LuisJa | DCGstudios: no no no wait, I just mean than they are no 2 unallocated partitions, 1 of 1mb and the other of 121 GBs, how I can join them? (if u meaned what i prefer, i heard ext4 is faster and better | 18:56 |
| LuisJa | they are now* | 18:56 |
| Lasivian | flan_suse: ok, thanks :) | 18:56 |
| DCGstudios | LuisJa, Ohhhhh yea, dont even worry about that 1MB unallocated, thats a kind of fail-safe space for your hard drive.. i think mines like 2MB | 18:57 |
| flan_suse | Lasivian: And the pastebin you posted shows that mac80211 loaded. | 18:57 |
| DCGstudios | LuisJa, ext4 IS faster and better, but im old school and never upgraded lol | 18:57 |
| LuisJa | DCGstudios: lol | 18:57 |
| n0mad | hELLo? | 18:57 |
| flan_suse | Lasivian: I think it has something to do with running kernel 2.6.30 on Jaunty. | 18:57 |
| DCGstudios | LuisJa, But yea youll want to make your 25GB partiton and set that to your / during your install | 18:57 |
| Lademord | Hey, what's the support channel for Ubuntu One. Anyone know? | 18:58 |
| DCGstudios | LuisJa, Then use all the rest for your /home partition (assuming your not trying to dual-boot or anything) | 18:58 |
| jamil_1 | Whenever I do: "apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 45FFBBBA" I get keyserver timed out, is there a way to do this manually ? I am asking for manual way because I am behind a proxy so most probably problem is at my end. | 18:58 |
| b3lorix | Lademord: #ubuntuone | 18:58 |
| LuisJa | no dual booting since 2008 DCGstudios, windows is no worth in any way lol | 18:58 |

| poseidon | n0mad: stream in our out? | 19:03 |
| DCGstudios | LuisJa, Cool sounds good, once its done if you follow that tutorial just be patient when you copy your /home folder (going to take at least 30min) | 19:03 |
| n0mad | yeah like shoutcast i want to stream in | 19:03 |
| Vital{ReBorN} | hmm | 19:03 |
| FoolishOwl | poseidon, I think they say on the Steampowered site that they're planning on having it in the coming year. | 19:03 |

| FoolishOwl | poseidon, the news post I had in mind didn't say anything about Linux, so I guess I was getting it from Ars Technica. | 19:06 |
| Vital{ReBorN} | no no, I'm a linux noob, Just thought you'd have to be more clear on what you wanted to get help | 19:06 |
| n0mad | ok | 19:06 |

| FoolishOwl | So, no, nothing definite. But, porting Steam from Windows to OS X would be hard, porting from OS X to Linux would be easy, since they're both basically Unix, with similar underlying conventions. | 19:07 |
| Vital{ReBorN} | everything else says awaiting network connection | 19:07 |
| Vital{ReBorN} | FoolishOwl | 19:07 |

| n0mad | i didnt even know he was talking to me | 19:08 |
| FoolishOwl | He asked about both. | 19:08 |
| Vital{ReBorN} | LOL | 19:08 |
| n0mad | just stream | 19:08 |
| Izinucs | Vital{ReBorN}: he's talking aobut steam which is a game engine / connection that has recently been ported to OS X | 19:08 |
| FoolishOwl | "Anybody know if the speculations that Steam and some games based of the Valve Source engine are going to be ported to linux is true?" | 19:09 |

| Vital{ReBorN} | I thought | 19:09 |
| Vital{ReBorN} | You were talking to a different person | 19:09 |
| Vital{ReBorN} | My fault, sorry | 19:09 |
| FoolishOwl | Then he asked about stream after that. | 19:09 |
| Izinucs | FoolishOwl: looks like it might be.. at least from what I've read.. might be a while though. | 19:09 |
| gixgix | I have a dell d600 with a fresh install of 9.10. Lots of things are going wrong. Wireless and ethernet aren't working, I think because of drivers. It also freezes and I can't get any key combination to work. The most frustrating part is that Windows works fine. Ideas on where to start? | 19:09 |
| Vital{ReBorN} | ah.. Then I wasn't paying attention when he said that | 19:09 |
| Vital{ReBorN} | Either way, my fault.. Sorry | 19:09 |
| stimpie | FoolishOwl, as far as I know its not confirmed (MacOS version is) | 19:09 |
| FoolishOwl | Well, gamers get whiny when developers announce a date and don't meet it. | 19:10 |

| pallgone | gixgix: i have a d600 too, with some other linux, with one kernel wifi worked, with the next one not, then later X wouldn't work anymore | 19:12 |
| coz_ | gixgix, if you do decide to move to lucid I would download the install cd for lucid and do a clean install | 19:12 |
| mattwj2002 | I was wondering if I could get some help with /etc/fstab | 19:12 |
| mattwj2002 | :) | 19:12 |
| SwedeMike | !ask | mattwj2002 | 19:13 |

| coz_ | gixgix, this way if anything goes wrong or soemthing doesnt work right ...you can be sure it is lucid and not an upgrade issue | 19:13 |
| pallgone | gixgix: ethernet should work though | 19:13 |
| FoolishOwl | mattwj2002, what's the issue? | 19:13 |
| shh | Anyone with a workaround for the Server/Alternate images to work using USB, the whole "No common CD-ROM" issue during install? | 19:13 |
| mattwj2002 | I would like my 2 ext and my 1 ntfs drive to mount automatically | 19:13 |
| gnoob | congrats with new version. In my opinion the most complete linuxOS so far | 19:13 |
| mattwj2002 | how do I do that? | 19:13 |
| limikael | exit | 19:14 |
| CogitoErgoSam | mattwj2002, for automounting ntfs try installing ntfs-config. The command would be "sudo apt-get install ntfs-config" | 19:14 |
| shh | mattwj2002: edit /etc/fstab | 19:14 |
| SwedeMike | mattwj2002: http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html , there are quite a lot of guides out there you can find via google. | 19:14 |
| Izinucs | mattwj2002: are those partitions seperate from your root partition? (the ext partitions) and are the ext3 or 4 | 19:14 |
| mattwj2002 | yes they are | 19:14 |
| mattwj2002 | I saw that guide | 19:15 |
| Izinucs | !fstab | mattwj2002 you can also use this link | 19:15 |
| ubottu | mattwj2002 you can also use this link: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab and http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions | 19:15 |

| kniahlz | Hi everyone.. I just installed ubuntu and I am not getting any sound. Driver seems to be installed correctly and its not musted, but no sound. The speakers are hooked up right and did work in windows 7 just before I installed ubuntu so I am guessing its not the speakers... any suggestions? | 19:15 |
| SwedeMike | mattwj2002: why didn't you say so? it's the fsck order, it's not hugely important. | 19:15 |

| ActionParsnip | Clouse: for high frame rate drop resolution, bit depth and anti-aliasing and you will get more frames | 19:41 |
| FoolishOwl | nishanth, okay, over my head I'm afraid. | 19:41 |

| Guest59490 | ActionParsnip: i suppose that im not loged in already when i switch since i did not enter any Passwort but merely see the black screen with moveable Pointer | 19:44 |
| shh | Etere___: the gdm is tied into the rc.d part of boot up | 19:44 |
| ActionParsnip | Etere___: there a guide for that | 19:44 |
| Clouse | ActionParsnip: Thanks for the advise but I have a ATI X1600 so no fglrx from as the bot suggested but what can you expect it's only a bot | 19:45 |
| Guest59490 | Zelozelos: yeah, but i want to fix this | 19:45 |
| Etere___ | in some way i must tell to xserver to load first the nvidia driver and the other modules | 19:45 |
| Etere___ | and then the other modules | 19:45 |

| ActionParsnip | Clouse: then you could form an xorg.conf file to make the open driver run nicer for you. There are tonnes of sample files around | 19:48 |

| ActionParsnip | Shawnrisk: no as I can't be bothered with the heartache that hibernate brings. There are samples around though | 20:10 |
| rui | greezmunkey :i see the windows WORKGROUP | 20:10 |
| greezmunkey | rui: see if it locates the laptop | 20:10 |
| ActionParsnip | Causality: depends on chip. Nvidia support is as good as windows | 20:10 |
| Slart | ne7work: there's also "screen" and the different TTY's.. try ALT+F1, ALT+F2 and so on for all the running TTYS | 20:10 |

| jukkaar | if I type help nothing works | 20:13 |
| ActionParsnip | Shawnrisk: wicd doesn't support 3G so if you use 3G keep network manager. Wicd will also automagically remove network manager for you. Just reboot adnd config your connection | 20:13 |
| ShawnRisk | ActionParsnip: there is no way to fix this with network manager? | 20:14 |

| ShawnRisk | ActionParsnip: I have another problem, which is when I wakeup from sleep the laptop, the mouse cursor is invisible but I can still move this. The only way to fix this is by going ctrl+alt+f1 and back ctrl+alt+f7. How do I fix this without doing that? | 20:15 |

| mataks | Beyecixramd, how? | 20:20 |
| alpha | My computer just upgraded stuff. E.g., firefox was upgraded to "Namoroka-pre". Is this part of an official upgrade or was this due to a 3rd part ppa? | 20:20 |
| Beyecixramd | mataks: copy your /home folder to an external drive, and when reinstalling, once in the desktop, copy that folder back in | 20:20 |
| Gryllida | is there a website which contains all the manuals ubuntu users can get in Terminal via "man <something>"? | 20:21 |
| Beyecixramd | mataks: next time, please make a separate /home partition with about 90% of your disk space in order to avoid losing data or having to move settings and such... | 20:21 |
| Black_Phantom | Gryllida, help.ubuntu.com :/ | 20:21 |

| PeterNL | Gryllida: and http://linux.die.net/man/ | 20:21 |
| Slart | Gryllida: there are many sites on the net with man pages.. I don't know of one that has ubuntu specific pages though.. but they are mostly the same regardless of distro | 20:21 |
| sh1ny | Beyecixramd, i'd suggest using lvm instead of 90% /home | 20:21 |

| sh1ny | :) | 20:22 |
| Slart | Flannel: ahh.. should have guessed =) thanks | 20:22 |
| sh1ny | you can find it on the advanced cd when installing or you can install it via apt-get later, tho you will have a hard time converting the partitions later | 20:22 |
| PeterNL | How do I install xorg-server 1.7.x or 1.8.x on Ubuntu 9.04 32bit? xorg-edgers only provides 1.6.3. Can I just use the lucid version of xorg-edgers, or will I break things? | 20:23 |
| Gryllida | Flannel, that's right what I was looking for | 20:23 |
| sh1ny | PeterNL, it will break things | 20:23 |
| sh1ny | PeterNL, why not upgrade to lucid ? | 20:23 |
| Beyecixramd | sh1ny: no, i mean, why lvm? i find having a /boot a / and a /home partition is enough | 20:23 |
| PeterNL | sh1ny: I don't have the time/space to do that. | 20:24 |
| painkiller | hi | 20:24 |
| sh1ny | Beyecixramd, because when you advised him to use 90% for home, he will end up pretty badly depending on the size of his disks and the amount of software he installs | 20:24 |

| Beyecixramd | sh1ny: hmm... LVM allows you to dynamically set up partition sizes? didn't know that.. | 20:25 |

| ne7work | how to configure proftpd? | 20:32 |
| Lasivian | greezmunkey: it's odd, it keeps automatically reconnecting in managed even when I specify "ifconfig wlan0 down" | 20:32 |
| jamil_1 | hello, apt-get is not working it says it proxy authentication failed even though I have set the http_proxy variable properly because I can wget. I dont know what happened it was working few days ago | 20:32 |
| sh1ny | PeterNL, Lost my comp twice this year, one time BEFORE lucid and one time AFTER that :F, had to reinstall my windows both times and 9.10 at first then 10.04 once again | 20:32 |
| duffydack | BlueEagle, ugh.. I got an error "Error starting job: Failed to execute child process. "cryptsetup" (No such file or directory)" | 20:32 |
| onetinsoldier | olskolirc: but perhaps i could say, yes, it's an entire firefox package | 20:32 |
| sh1ny | Cybe-life ? | 20:32 |
| greezmunkey | rui: look here, there are some links for lexmark drivers here: http://www.linux.com/learn/answers/2-drivers/379-lexmark-2600-printer-does-not-work-on-ubuntu-910-any-suggestions | 20:32 |
| guntbert | for all who tried to guess a) a language and b) a language code for ubottu: please check if your code is successful in a private window with ubottu (try /msg ubottu !bg in this case) | 20:32 |
| PeterNL | Bye all! | 20:33 |
| Mekzholan | where is defined what should be started as display manager (or asked differently: where do I define that my X programm should be started directly after boot, w/o a display and a a window manager...)? | 20:33 |
| onetinsoldier | dominicdinada: hello, what's up? | 20:33 |
| greezmunkey | Lasivian: Are you using network manager? | 20:33 |
| sh1ny | bye PeterNL | 20:33 |
| ne7work | please someone help me to configure proftpd? | 20:33 |
| sh1ny | ne7work, fire up ? | 20:33 |
| sandking | anyone use Mac keyboards here? | 20:33 |
| Flannel | cowguru2000: http://projects.gnome.org/gdm/docs/2.14/overview.html Section 2.9 goes into detail about it, including a way you can specify the users to show up in the face browser | 20:33 |
| sh1ny | ne7work, what's the problem with proftpd ? | 20:33 |
| Lasivian | greezmunkey: yeah, just realized that, I should shutoff the wireless there | 20:33 |
| dominicdinada | onetinsoldier: to mount a /media/meinna drive i just need to add /media/meinna in the fstab right ? | 20:33 |
| cowguru2000 | Flannel: thank you very much! | 20:33 |
| Flannel | ne7work: What's your use-case for FTP? | 20:33 |
| sh1ny | Flannel, i was first ! :P | 20:34 |
| ne7work | Flannel what? | 20:34 |
| greezmunkey | Lasivian: or, you can add the wireless interface to /etc/network/interfaces, then restart networking - network manager will then ignore it. | 20:34 |
| sh1ny | ne7work, explain the problem you have configuring proftpd | 20:34 |
| BlueEagle | duffydack: Seems you're missing cryptsetup. | 20:34 |
| dominicdinada | onetinsoldier: i mean this is mounting in the fstab at start but that is how to add it right | 20:34 |
| duffydack | BlueEagle, guess it needs installing (it really shouldnt offer the option if its not installed.. ) | 20:34 |
| Flannel | ne7work: Are you only going to be using it for personal use? or is this a production FTP server? or what? | 20:34 |
| ne7work | i install proftpd on ubuntu server edition and now how to use it? | 20:34 |
| onetinsoldier | dominicdinada: i haven't configured an fstab in a very long time | 20:34 |
| sh1ny | ne7work, it just works when you install it | 20:34 |
| sh1ny | ne7work, using the system users and their home directories | 20:35 |
| onetinsoldier | dominicdinada: there's more than just one entry one a line though | 20:35 |
| ne7work | sh1ny what username and password to use? | 20:35 |
| dominicdinada | onetinsoldier: i have read the how tos but it is kinda jibberish and figured i would get a simple answer | 20:35 |
| Beyecixramd | what are all those floodbots anyway? | 20:35 |
| ne7work | sh1ny how to set directory | 20:35 |
| sh1ny | ne7work, the ones you log in with | 20:35 |
| dominicdinada | Beyecixramd: protecting the channel from floods | 20:35 |
| ne7work | wtf | 20:35 |
| ne7work | how? | 20:35 |
| sh1ny | ne7work, it uses your home directory | 20:35 |
| Condoulo | I just installed Ubuntu 10.04 and I now get GRUB Error 17 and can't boot into anything but a LiveCD now. =/ | 20:35 |
| Beyecixramd | dominicdinada: why more than one? | 20:35 |
| guntbert | ne7work: you might get more answers in #ubuntu-server | 20:35 |
| dafreak | Hello folks. I'm hoping that somebody can help me with my issue in connecting my Sony Vaio laptop to my WPA secured network. Laptop sees the network just fine and will connect it if I change it to no encryption but for obvious reasons I don't want to leave it that way. If I try and connect it just keeps prompting for my password over and over again. This is on Ubuntu 10.04 LTS, any ideas? | 20:35 |
| sh1ny | ne7work, proftpd by default uses the system users and password | 20:35 |
| guntbert | !wtf | ne7work | 20:35 |
| ubottu | ne7work: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. | 20:35 |
| Beyecixramd | dafreak: no more than 3 lines for a question, please, it's very confusing | 20:36 |
| Flannel | guntbert: Don't be obtuse, he's getting help here just fine. | 20:36 |
| dominicdinada | Beyecixramd: because mass floods can take bots offline so it is a redundant protection | 20:36 |
| Beyecixramd | dominicdinada: hmmm wow... | 20:36 |
| AhmedBH | hi, i just download ATI's update by synaptic and i can't set my graphic as EXTRA ? Why | 20:36 |
| Jordan_U | Condoulo: Do you have more than one hard drive? | 20:36 |
| BlueEagle | duffydack: I would agree that it should automatically staisfy any dependencies if possible. Ie. automatically install cryptsetup instead of throwing an error. | 20:36 |
| datroubler | Beyecixramd not with 9.10, since 10.4 I have the problem with the earphones, i can't find any option to mute them | 20:36 |
| Beyecixramd | dominicdinada: but that's like a DDoS, right? you can't do that with a single computer | 20:36 |
| rangua | hi, quick question. where is the configuration options for the visual effects? i want to set up the cube | 20:36 |
| Condoulo | Jordan_U: I have 3 SATA HDDs hooked up. 2 with NTFS (one for WIndows, one for storage), and the other w/ EXT4/SWAP. | 20:36 |
| Flannel | ne7work: What sh1ny is trying to say isthat you just fire up your FTP client, and log in with your normal users. | 20:36 |
| === petr_ is now known as Guest76947 | ||
| dafreak | Ok short version. Ubuntu 10.04, Sony Vaio laptop, will not connect to WPA secured network but will connect to unencrypted. Ideas? | 20:37 |
| sh1ny | ne7work, use the username and password with which you log in into the server ( like from ssh from example or in the console ) | 20:37 |
| greezmunkey | dafreak: you can try to narrow down the cause, in a terminal: tail -f /var/log/syslog - see what it is failing on. | 20:37 |
| dominicdinada | Beyecixramd: it is better seeing it scroll floodbots than script kiddies or idiots take control of the channel with spam and flood users offline | 20:37 |
| ne7work | sh1ny where i create usernames and passwords for login with ftp client? | 20:37 |
| guntbert | Flannel: I beg your pardon? what is your issue? don't call me names please | 20:37 |
| Beyecixramd | datroubler: hmmm the PulseAudio panel should give you the option to automute the speakers | 20:37 |
| Jordan_U | Condoulo: Then grub was installed to a different drive than the one you are booting from, try changing the boot order | 20:37 |
| sh1ny | ne7work, use "adduser" in the command line | 20:37 |
| Beyecixramd | dominicdinada: doubtless, yes | 20:37 |
| dominicdinada | Beyecixramd: you can do it with one computer there is war scripts that makes tons of users that join and flood and take down channels | 20:37 |
| onetinsoldier | AhmedBH: i'll ask the obvious question... did you reboot after installing it? | 20:37 |
| ne7work | sh1ny for proftpd | 20:38 |
| datroubler | Beyecixramd: have I to install it? | 20:38 |
| ne7work | not for linux | 20:38 |
| sh1ny | ne7work, as i said | 20:38 |
| AhmedBH | Yes actually did... | 20:38 |
| rangua | dafreak: try installing the wpasupplicant package or the wpagui.. haven't tried them myself, but maybe that'll help | 20:38 |
| sh1ny | ne7work, Proftpd uses the SYSTEM users | 20:38 |
| sh1ny | ne7work, use the username and password that you use to log in into the server | 20:38 |
| datroubler | Beyecixramd: how can i launch pulse audio? | 20:38 |
| onetinsoldier | AhmedBH: ok, roger. what kind of video card do you have? | 20:38 |
| jamil_1 | rangua: system>preference>appearance visual effects tab though u better install compiz config settings manager | 20:39 |
| AhmedBH | I have ATI's delicated and it was working damn fine @_@ | 20:39 |
| ne7work | sh1ny and how i can choose directory /var/www ? | 20:39 |
| Beyecixramd | dominicdinada: bah... stupid script kiddies... | 20:39 |
| rangua | thanks. i was actually looking for the compiz config manager | 20:39 |
| onetinsoldier | AhmedBH: try renaming the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file and then running the following command... sudo aitconfig --initial | 20:39 |
| sandking | can anyone explain me where the hell someone see fn key in this keyboard https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AppleKeyboard ? | 20:39 |
| AhmedBH | just a second | 20:39 |
| dominicdinada | /var/www is for the webserver :/ | 20:39 |
| sh1ny | ne7work, by default you are not locked to your home directory, you can just navigate to /var/www | 20:39 |
| Beyecixramd | datroubler: PulseAudio is the system Ubuntu uses for playing sound. just like DirectSound in Windows, for games. To launch its settings panel click the speaker icon in the upper left corner of your screen | 20:39 |
| sh1ny | ne7work, or you can set the homedirectory of the user to /var/www | 20:39 |
| sandking | because wiki is referring to this and i don't see it and i don't see it on mine | 20:40 |
| onetinsoldier | AhmedBH: fi you do that, then you'll need to restart X windows afterwards | 20:40 |
| Beyecixramd | datroubler: or just go to System > Settings > Audio or something similar | 20:40 |
| onetinsoldier | if* | 20:40 |
| Flannel | sandking: next to home | 20:40 |
| duffydack | BlueEagle, made it, ext4 and encrypted. now when i plug it in to test, and put in password i get "Error unlocking device: cryptsetup exited with exit code 239: Device udisks-luks-uuid-596eb203-6f4b-4326-8b3a-099f05f8ae8d-uid1000 already exists." a file there does exist.. this is bothersome. | 20:40 |
| sandking | Flannel: thank you eagle eye!!! :] | 20:40 |
| Flannel | sandking: (where insert would be on a regular keyboard) | 20:40 |
| datroubler | Beyecixramd: ok but i cant find this option | 20:40 |
| Doofy | All the While!!!! | 20:40 |
| Doofy | wish all and more!!! and lastly wanted to ask (what do you now time?) | 20:40 |
| AhmedBH | theres nothing like that in that folder | 20:40 |
| Scott_1 | Hi, the fan on my computer goes at full speed in Ubuntu and is very noisy. How can I get it to slow down? | 20:41 |
| onetinsoldier | AhmedBH: ok, then run that command and restart X Windows | 20:41 |
| sandking | Flannel: I got this keyboard about 4 months and i didn't saw it as on laptop keyboards fn key is next to ctrl! | 20:41 |
| jamil_1 | proxy! apt is not working behind proxy. I have set the http_proxy variable still I am getting error 407 proxy authentication required. | 20:41 |
| Beyecixramd | datroubler: try to play with the output settings, maybe there you have a way to mute it or not, otherwise, i don't know | 20:41 |
| AhmedBH | sudo aitconfig --initial ? | 20:41 |
| sandking | Flannel: so really thank you | 20:41 |
| onetinsoldier | AhmedBH: yes | 20:41 |
| AhmedBH | as # ? | 20:41 |
| onetinsoldier | sudo = root | 20:41 |
| AhmedBH | okay just a second | 20:42 |
| youngblood | I'm trying to reinstall bcmwl-kernel-source, but it is in a restricted repository. I add the pointer to the restricted repository, but still no go. So, can someone tell me what repository I need to add to sources.list? I'm using 9.04. | 20:42 |
| datroubler | Beyecixramd: i can only chose between HDMI and normal output | 20:42 |
| AhmedBH | sudo: aitconfig: command not found | 20:42 |
| sh1ny | aitconfig != aticonfig | 20:42 |
| Doofy | 23: 42 in Russia | 20:42 |
| Beyecixramd | Scott_1: that could be an ACPI problem. And if it's that, it can't be easily solved because of Microsoft vendors lock-ins | 20:42 |
| dominicdinada | onetinsoldier: sudo = run as root... sudo -i take root :) | 20:42 |
| ne7work | sh1ny i have ftp user created when i install proftpd | 20:42 |
| Scott_1 | Oh, I see. | 20:42 |
| AhmedBH | i did but same result sudo: aitconfig: command not found | 20:42 |
| ne7work | how to change password of this user? | 20:42 |
| onetinsoldier | AhmedBH: perhaps i made a typo as pointed out be sh1ny ... aticonfig | 20:43 |
| Beyecixramd | datroubler: no idea then, sorry. Try asking in the Ubuntu Forums, posting screenshots of your audio settins and such | 20:43 |
| Lasivian | greezmunkey: still not connecting when I use iwconfig to force a connection | 20:43 |
| sh1ny | ne7work, this one is for the daemon to run, you can't log in with it | 20:43 |
| Scott_1 | The fan gets very annoying after a while, but in Windows it slows down to a gentle hum. | 20:43 |
| dominicdinada | Lasivian: are you using WEP ? | 20:43 |
| onetinsoldier | dominicdinada: if you have root prompt, then you don't need the sudo | 20:43 |
| ne7work | sh1ny what's the password for ftp user | 20:43 |
| AhmedBH | No supported adapters detected | 20:43 |
| AhmedBH | @_@ | 20:43 |
| Lasivian | dominicdinada: no security | 20:43 |
| cheryl | Hi can anyone help me with installing java on Karmic plse? | 20:43 |
| greezmunkey | Lasivian: what command did you issue? | 20:43 |
| datroubler | Beyecixramd: ok thanks | 20:43 |
| sh1ny | Flannel, i give up >.> | 20:43 |
| Beyecixramd | Scott_1: what manufacturer is your PC? | 20:43 |
| dominicdinada | Lasivian: sudo dhcp ??? ??? | 20:44 |
| AhmedBH | Now what | 20:44 |
| Scott_1 | Asus I believe | 20:44 |
| Lasivian | greezmunkey" iwconfig wlan0 essid "LasivianWiFi" | 20:44 |
| dafreak | greezmunkey: It looks like the reason it's failing is a wpa_supplicant: Association request to the driver failed | 20:44 |
| onetinsoldier | AhmedBH: i don't know | 20:44 |
| Beyecixramd | Scott_1: did it come with Windows Vista? | 20:44 |
| An_Ony_Moose | is there a program that can stream any GStreamer-compatible streams to a v4l device? | 20:44 |
| Lasivian | iwconfig shows ad-hoc mode, network manager has wifi disabled which I assume is just in Gnome | 20:44 |
| greezmunkey | Lasivian: did you tell it what mode you need? | 20:44 |
| Flannel | ne7work: The credentials (user/password) for logging in via FTP are the same as the credentials that you would use if you were logging in from a keyboard at the machine | 20:44 |
| onetinsoldier | AhmedBH: what does... lshw -C display ...show? | 20:44 |
| greezmunkey | Lasivian: Ah, ok. | 20:44 |
| Scott_1 | Beyecixramd: Yes. | 20:45 |
| Scott_1 | Beyecixramd, it's Asus M2N-SLI AM2 | 20:45 |
| AhmedBH | shows about printing and html xml etc | 20:45 |
| AhmedBH | just a minute | 20:45 |
| Beyecixramd | Scott_1: are you sure it's the mainboard/cpu fan and not the GPU(Graphic card) fan? btw, is it a desktop? | 20:45 |
| AhmedBH | i just downloaded a driver and i am sure it will work :) should i restat X or my PC ? | 20:46 |
| Scott_1 | Beyecixramd: I'm not sure where the noise comes from exactly to be honest. It is a desktop. | 20:46 |
| Beyecixramd | AhmedBH: try restarting X, if not, your entire PC | 20:46 |
| AhmedBH | BRB | 20:47 |
| Beyecixramd | Scott_1: could you try to put the mouse behind the graphics card in windows and linux to find out if its a GPU problem? | 20:47 |
| JayX | Hey! How can I compress / .rar a 6GB video into parts so i can get it to fit on a FAT harddrive (4gb max files size) ?? | 20:47 |
| greezmunkey | Lasivian: being that what you are trying to do is apparantly incmpatible with network manager, i would add the wifi interface to /etc/network/interfaces and restart networking and try again. It *may* work. Check 'man interfaces' for details. | 20:47 |
| Beyecixramd | Scott_1: nVidia recently had problems with fans on their GPUs, so... | 20:47 |
| Lasivian | I'm sure the wireless network is good, my other netbook connects just fine with a different chipset | 20:47 |
| Lasivian | in Gnome and without any iwconfig commands | 20:48 |
| SwedeMike | JayX: rar -v<size>[k|b|f] | 20:48 |
| Beyecixramd | Scott_1: did i say mouse? god.. i meant hand | 20:48 |
| greezmunkey | Lasivian: I though you wanted ad-hoc mode, is there an access point available? | 20:48 |
| Scott_1 | Yeah, I was wondering what you meant. | 20:49 |
| JayX | SwedeMike, do i need to have anything installed? | 20:49 |
| Scott_1 | :) | 20:49 |
| Ignor | hi all, have a problemm with shutdown PC on ubuntu 9. HDD, Video, devices are shutdown, but cooler on proc still working, and power lite on box working.. | 20:49 |
| SwedeMike | JayX: yes, you have to install rar | 20:49 |
| Beyecixramd | Scott_1: i have lost my mind somewhere... Australia i guess | 20:49 |
| JayX | SwedeMike, sudo apt-get install rar ???? | 20:49 |
| Scott_1 | Beyecixramd, I just opened the hardware options and a message popped up to say the nvidia graphics driver isn't installed. | 20:50 |
| SwedeMike | JayX: "apt-cache search rar" will give you the package name. | 20:50 |
| Scott_1 | Maybe installing them will fix the problem... | 20:50 |
| SwedeMike | JayX: hm, that gave a lot of packages. | 20:50 |
| Beyecixramd | Scott_1: maybe that's the problem, try to install it and let me know the results :) | 20:50 |
| Slart | !rar | 20:50 |

| dafreak | greezmunkey: So with that error message do I need to try and enable debugging on the ipw2200 driver that's loaded for my wireless NIC? | 20:50 |
| Lasivian | greezmunkey: but that's hardcoding wifi to a specific access point, right? | 20:50 |
| Ignor | any Ideas?... | 20:50 |
| JayX | SwedeMike, i see :S... thats alot of packages | 20:51 |
| SwedeMike | JayX: so yes, apt-get install rar | 20:51 |
| Scott_1 | Beyecixramd, downloading now | 20:51 |
| greezmunkey | dafreak: check back a few pages, there was a suggestion regarding downloading wpasupplicant something or another... | 20:51 |
| Beyecixramd | Scott_1: do you have Ubuntu 10.04? | 20:51 |
| jukkaar | ubuntu is still userunfriendly nerd os | 20:51 |
| Scott_1 | Beyecixramd, 9.10 | 20:51 |
| JayX | SwedeMike, Urg... a few "packages have unmet dependencies" :S what does that mean? | 20:52 |
| SwedeMike | JayX: I have no idea. google for it. | 20:52 |
| Beyecixramd | jukkaar is still userunfriendly troll :) | 20:52 |
| dafreak | greezmunkey: I Don't see anything like that in the chatlog between my reply & you just stating it but I'll look on synaptic and see what I can find | 20:52 |
| Anonymous_ | is there something similar to cheat engine on Ubuntu | 20:52 |
| Beyecixramd | Scott_1: i encourage you to update (but do a clean install) | 20:52 |
| Slart | Anonymous_: nope | 20:52 |
| JayX | SwedeMike, ok.. and as for the " rar -v<size>[k|b|f] " <size> is how large i want each part to be made into?? in megabites? | 20:53 |
| greezmunkey | Lasivian: not necessarily, if you have an access point, use it. Network manager can easily handle that for you. Do this. Undo what you did in iwconfig, and then in network manager set up for your access point. You can add other access points (networks) later as you need them. | 20:53 |
| SwedeMike | JayX: man rar | 20:53 |
| Scott_1 | Beyecixramd, what's better about 10.04? | 20:53 |
| greezmunkey | dafreak: I'll page back and find it... | 20:53 |
| Slart | Anonymous_: I think there could be .. if someone wanted to do it.. but afaik noone has wanted it bad enough to write it | 20:53 |
| Beyecixramd | Scott_1: nouveau, for example, it's a new open source driver for nVidia :) | 20:53 |
| JayX | SwedeMike, thanks :D | 20:53 |
| SwedeMike | JayX: you can use whatever prefix you are most comfortable with. | 20:53 |
| Beyecixramd | Scott_1: apart from faster startup times, and improved speed | 20:54 |

| GoremanX | getting some weird "load average" numbers using Ubuntu 10.04, can someone help me diagnose? | 20:54 |
| Slart | Anonymous_: and just because I said that I found something =).. haven't tried it though but there it is ^^^ | 20:54 |
| Slart | GoremanX: what's weird about them? | 20:55 |
| Lasivian | greezmunkey: added it to interfaces but i'm still seeing no connection when telling it to connect from commandline | 20:55 |
| GoremanX | I have Ubuntu 10.04 setup as a test web hosting server that I'm evaluating for migrating our sites to. Our current server is Ubuntu 9.10. But this new server, while sitting idle, is giving me some strange load numbers (when I check "uptime"): load average: 0.76, 0.70, 0.66. The old 9.10 server never shows numbers that high | 20:55 |
| greezmunkey | dafreak: --> rangua> dafreak: try installing the wpasupplicant package or the wpagui.. haven't tried them myself, but maybe that'll help | 20:55 |
| Scott_1 | Beyecixramd, I'm happy with the startup times / speed I currently have. I was quite pleased with the new features last time I upgraded Ubuntu so I might give it a whirl in the future. | 20:55 |
| GoremanX | it's a single core system | 20:56 |
| dafreak | greezmunkey: Synaptic already shows that wpasupplicant is installed, version 0.6.9-3, I'll try installing wpagui though | 20:56 |

| greezmunkey | Lasivian: Here's the thing - you asked for ad-hoc support, not plain jane wifi with access points. Put your interfaces file back, and restart networking. iow, clear all that out - you'll be using network namager instead! | 20:57 |
| Lasivian | ok, done | 20:57 |
| Lasivian | I just want some sign it can do what i'm asking any which way, heh | 20:57 |
| Scott_1 | The Ubuntu 'suspend' option doesn't work on my PC. | 20:58 |
| greezmunkey | Lasivian: it's all good! | 20:58 |
| Lasivian | i've gone over the other netbook with a different wireless card and it works fine | 20:58 |

| greezmunkey | Lasivian: in network manager, is there an "auto {essid}" connection listed? | 20:58 |
| greezmunkey | Lasivian: I should say in the wireless tab. | 20:59 |
| Lasivian | for the ad-hoc i'm trying to connect to? | 20:59 |
| Scott_1 | ok, driver installed, back in a bit | 20:59 |
| greezmunkey | Lasivian: no, ad-hoc is for connecting to another pc with a wifi card in it, not access point. | 21:00 |
| joelpet | is it possible to disable the auto adjustment of the microphone input volume, in lucid? | 21:00 |
| greezmunkey | Lasivian: ad-hoc vs. access point network: completely differant. | 21:00 |
| Lasivian | yes, but still the network manager is able to see the ad-hoc device on my other netbook | 21:01 |

| Scott__1 | Holy crap, it worked! | 21:02 |
| Lasivian | I had to create it from scratch on the ath5k netbook because it doesn't se eit at all | 21:02 |
| Scott__1 | Beyecixramd: it worked, thanks so much! | 21:02 |
| greezmunkey | Lasivian: hmmm, that may be, but only because that netbook has ad-hoc mode set. Is there a shared access point both pc can connect to? | 21:02 |
| Lasivian | greezmunkey: yes | 21:02 |
| ori | Can Someone Help me INstall MTGO through winetricks? | 21:02 |
| Beyecixramd | Scott__1: so it was a GPU problem :) im glad to see it worked | 21:03 |
| rui | greezmunkey:can you help me with another problem, i have aMSN and have difficult to conect the web cam to speak with MSN messenger on windows can you helpe me | 21:03 |
| greezmunkey | Lasivian: there you go, use that! | 21:03 |
| Lasivian | greezmunkey: currently there is, i'm trying to set it up to use my cellphone when we aren't here | 21:03 |
| Lasivian | I thought you were asking for troubleshooting purposes | 21:03 |
| greezmunkey | rui: that's above my paygrade - I don't do sound or social networking. | 21:03 |
| SwedBo | does anybody have HP DV series here ? | 21:03 |
| rui | ah ok | 21:03 |
| rui | greezmunkey: ok | 21:03 |

| Scott__1 | Ooh, and the driver does some graphic stuff as well. It has some cool vista like animations when I alt+tab | 21:05 |
| mcl0vin | ^^ what are these , i see them alot in me dmseg, are they related to my MS wireless keyboard? is that something i need to fix | 21:05 |
| rui | greezmunkey:i know now that Lexmark are doing Printers with Tux sign for Linux, Thanks to you | 21:05 |
| rui | can anyone help me , i have aMSN and have difficult to connect the web cam to speak with MSN messenger on windows | 21:06 |
| zoidfarb | Does anyone know if there's a setting in bash to change it to show **** for passwords, instead of just not echoing anything at all? (I have a lot of dumb users who freak out when NOTHING shows up as they type) | 21:06 |
| dafreak | greezmunkey: I tried using wpa_gui but it is not seeing my wireless network card (or any card for that matter), no errors in the syslog about it either | 21:06 |
| c0ntr0lpunk | hey i need help | 21:06 |
| mcl0vin | !ask | 21:07 |
| 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. :-) | 21:07 |
| c0ntr0lpunk | whenever i unplug my laptop charger ubuntu freezes and i cant start ubuntu without my laptop charger being plugged in | 21:07 |
| ori | Can Someone Help me Install MTGOIII_Helper.exe with winetricks? | 21:07 |
| greezmunkey | Lasivian: so, you don't want to use the AP then - but you case seems to be that you can't run in ad-hoc mode with your adapter. By definition you are back to the AP. | 21:08 |
| Izinucs | rui: check messenger's help site.. you might need to open ports to your machine on your router | 21:08 |
| discozohan | should i use reiserFs for tmp directory ? | 21:08 |
| onetinsoldier | zoidfarb: i seriously doubt it. i think you'd have to change the source code in bash to do that, then recompile it and install your changed version | 21:08 |
| zoidfarb | c0ntr0lpunk, that sounds like a problem with ACPI events | 21:08 |
| c0ntr0lpunk | ok zoid do u know how to fix? | 21:09 |
| rui | Izinucs:thank you | 21:09 |
| zoidfarb | c0ntr0lpunk, sorry, but ACPI depends a lot on your particular bios/hardware. I would suggest googling for something like "ACPI <your laptop model> Ubuntu" | 21:09 |
| c0ntr0lpunk | ok | 21:10 |
| Lasivian | greezmunkey: yes, and i'm trying to figure out if it's the driver or the hardware which refuses to use the ad-hoc network | 21:11 |
| robertzaccour | every time my computer starts up, google chrome starts up, and its not selected in startup programs. how do i fix this? | 21:11 |
| Lasivian | greezmunkey: because I can't take the AP network with me in my pocket | 21:11 |
| c0ntr0lpunk | does anyone else no why my laptop freezes everytime i take off ac charger | 21:11 |
| mementomori | hi all | 21:12 |
| Slart | robertzaccour: does it open on any special page? or just the empty starting page? | 21:12 |
| onetinsoldier | hello | 21:12 |
| Lasivian | c0ntr0lpunk: did you boot it clean or is this only after resuming from suspend? | 21:12 |
| harry-houdini1 | hello can anyone tell me what the command line secret to restart all networks in lucid is /etc/init.d/networking restart no longer works | 21:12 |
| robertzaccour | Slart, empty starting page | 21:12 |
| Izinucs | harry-houdini1: sudo service networking restart I think | 21:13 |
| mementomori | I'm getting an error while updating from karmic to lucid: | 21:13 |
| mementomori | Could not determine the upgrade | 21:13 |
| mementomori | An unresolvable problem occurred while calculating the upgrade: | 21:13 |
| mementomori | E:Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages. | 21:13 |

| * jpds watches mementomori get help in #ubuntu-uk. | 21:13 | |
| robertzaccour | Slart, actually opens but there's nothing at the time because it opens before my wireless automatically connects | 21:13 |
| Lasivian | c0ntr0lpunk: second question is, do you have the lid closed when you unplug it? | 21:13 |
| Izinucs | rui: look for the ports that the different services for messenger use.. webcam, voice, file transfer etc.. the ports will be the same on linux | 21:13 |
| harry-houdini1 | it says unknown instance when i run it | 21:13 |
| osmosis | my audio works on my laptop, but the headphone jack doesn't. Used to work before I upgraded. lspci shows Audio device: Intel Corporation 5 Series/3400. Anyone seen this? | 21:14 |
| c0ntr0lpunk | to lasician: no i dont | 21:14 |
| Izinucs | rui: the same for amsn on linux that is. | 21:14 |
| lengend | When I type "linux /boot/vmlinuz root=/dev/sdxY ro" I get "Error: No such disk". | 21:14 |
| c0ntr0lpunk | and also to lasivian: boot clean | 21:14 |
| Slart | robertzaccour: hmm.. it might be something else that wants to show you an url.. but I've never seen anything in ubuntu that acted that way.. | 21:14 |
| Lasivian | c0ntr0lpunk: what happens when you shut it down and reboot on battery without having it plugged in? | 21:15 |
| zoidfarb | c0ntr0lpunk, does it sound like this might be your issue: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/535653 | 21:15 |
| c0ntr0lpunk | it goes to login screen plays | 21:15 |

| Izinucs | calibre: did you upgrade to 10.04 from 9.10? | 21:24 |
| robertzaccour | every time my computer starts up, google chrome starts up, and its not selected in startup programs. how do i fix this? | 21:24 |
| todd_ | but i cant simply drag and drop it to my appearance>theme folder. or click on "install" | 21:24 |

| calibre | Izinucs: 10.04 | 21:24 |
| onetinsoldier | todd_: what happens if you try and click on install? | 21:24 |
| Slart | Jenni0: "sudo reboot" to reboot.. you might have to press escape when the machine boots to see the grub menu (it should look something like this http://blog.hectorbenitez.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/grub.png ) then select the recovery mode.. you'll get another menu after a while where you can choose "root shell" or "root shell with networking", select the one you want and you'll get a command line where you're already root (so no sudo needed) | 21:24 |
| Izinucs | calibre: I asked if you did an upgrade from 9.10? | 21:24 |
| todd_ | nothing, all windows just close | 21:24 |

| calibre | Izinucs: No. | 21:26 |

| Slart | Jenni0: but perhaps someone else in the channel knows.. but mention that you're on a ssh link to a remote computer and can't reboot.. otherwise they'll just tell you the same thing I did | 21:28 |
| todd_ | yeah. i have had that before, and there was a way that i could go through the terminal and install it that way | 21:28 |
| AhmedBH | onetinsoldier: i tried but i uninstall most of the drivers which should i download ? to make that ATI graphic card working ? | 21:28 |
| todd_ | do you know a method like that? | 21:28 |
| onetinsoldier | todd_: well, you can unpack the file and see what is has in it. normally, the installer unpacks it to --> ~/.themes | 21:28 |
| Jenni0 | I'm on a SSH session to a Ubuntu server and removed myself from /etc/sudoers by mistake. How can I solve this? | 21:28 |
| onetinsoldier | todd_: since this theme pack come with multiple themes and icon themes, you might need to install them separately or by hand... something like that | 21:30 |

| ubuntuCEO | hi guys, after i update some packages, my sound is not working | 21:39 |

| Izinucs | JabberWalkie: you have more than 4 partitions.. when you do that one of the 4 has to be an "Extended" partition. It allow you to create more partitions under it...sda4-6 are under it.. | 21:46 |

| ikonia | olskolirc: it's as safe as you allow it to be, if you have your machine locked down, the risk is minimal, you root it as root, then that's a risk | 21:52 |
| olskolirc | how safe is it to install wine-doors people with all those windows apps loaded such as internet explorer 6 which is not secure? | 21:52 |
| oCean_ | Lcawte: you can create your "own" vhost with specific documentroots etcetera. See /etc/apache2/sites-available directory | 21:52 |
| ubuntuCEO | jpds, how to install that? | 21:52 |
| Beyecixramd | hmmm when Steam reaches Linux, could it be used in *BSD? (afaik, BSD runs all Linux apps) or a UNIX system? | 21:52 |

| Jenni0 | Izinucs: whatever the default ubuntu server is ;) | 21:54 |
| oCean_ | Lcawte: indeed. Create your vhost configuration in /etc/apache2/sites-available and the command "a2ensite" will create symlink to /etc/apache2/sites-enabled directory. After reload of your apache server, the newly added vhost will be available (watch for errors on reload of apache) | 21:55 |

| Jenni0 | Izinucs: fresh install? :| | 21:57 |
| greezmunkey | AnxiousNut: You can run nmap against it, but you have to be on the outside I believe for the result to be accurate. | 21:58 |
| acicula | techpraxis, the alternate installation cd supports setting that up | 21:58 |
| Beyecixramd | nothingnow: they won't........ it's THEIR money. And also, releasing the steam source code won't be enough to run it on OpenSolaris, for example. They would need to release all the other games' source code | 21:58 |
| iromli | Beyecixramd: yeah, i've changed it ... hmm i guess it's buggy like you said | 21:58 |
| Izinucs | Jenni0: sorry I don't have the answers for you.. if nobody here then maybe in #ubuntu-server | 21:58 |

| acicula | techpraxis, the alternate cd is the only installer that supports setting up full disk encryption, as opposed to the (standard) default which just encrypts the data in /home | 22:00 |
| DrGrov | Seriously. I can't be this much problem to get a romset working | 22:00 |
| oCean_ | Lcawte: the default configfile there, you could use to create a new one. Just copy it over using a name you want to use. Edit that file, run the command "a2ensite <newsitename>" and reload/restart apache | 22:00 |
| greezmunkey | AnxiousNut: there are lots of nmap options you can choose, depending on what you are looking for. | 22:00 |

| Fozo | does anyone know and can explain to me what a partition table is? | 22:05 |
| techpraxis | acicula, i have already used the 10.04 livecd to chroot into my system, and grub can't be fixed except by manually editing the grub.cfg, which you are not supposed to do, since on my system grub-pc is BROKEN | 22:05 |
| greezmunkey | c0rrupt0r: look here, if your scanner is not supported you are out of luck: http://www.sane-project.org/sane-supported-devices.html | 22:05 |
| acicula | Fozo, a hard disk map telling where the partitons are | 22:05 |
| JabberWalkie | Izinucs, ok so I have soled the problem. I used a program called testdisk, it can scan your disk for partitions and then correct the partition directory, worked great :) | 22:05 |
| Fozo | if I make a new one will the old one be earased? | 22:05 |
| acicula | techpraxis, if you are upgrading you have grub1 afaik? | 22:05 |
| Izinucs | JabberWalkie: I used that once on my laptop.. fixed it and got it working but gparted still had issues. | 22:06 |
| acicula | techpraxis, if not then you should edit /etc/default/grub to set grub settings | 22:06 |
| CkhiKuzad | ._. i have asked twice. and twice it has been pushed up. people, google hasnt helped me for the past 10 times i googled it. i NEED help. | 22:06 |
| techpraxis | acicula, no i have grub2 -- i installed 9.10 grub2 | 22:06 |
| Fozo | if I make a new one will the old one be earased? | 22:06 |
| JabberWalkie | ahh, well gparted is working fine here | 22:06 |
| techpraxis | so was 9.10 grub2 --> 10.04 grub2, not 9.10 grub1 --> 10.04 grub2 | 22:06 |
| CkhiKuzad | i need to know how to make a USB drive bootable, and how to make GRUB2 boot it. | 22:06 |
| acicula | Fozo, well its a map, you can add and remove paritions from it | 22:06 |
| c0rrupt0r | greezmunkey: I have looked there and it says its supported, I have also used sane to find other office scanners and it finds them but odly it will not find two at once? is it only supposted to find one and not navigate between the two different types of scanners? | 22:06 |
| xomp | CkhiKuzad, I've been waiting for about 10 hours with no response to my question, it's not unusual to be waiting forever for help here :) Just be patient. | 22:06 |
| Loshki | !usb | CkhiKuzad Did you find nothing useful here? | 22:07 |
| techpraxis | i think, unless someone can convince me otherwise, that i have identified a bug in the 10.04 version of grub | 22:07 |
| ubottu | CkhiKuzad Did you find nothing useful here?: For information about installing Ubuntu from USB flash drives, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick - For a persistent live USB install, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent | 22:07 |
| Beyecixramd | xomp: what's your question? | 22:07 |
| Black_Phantom | How can I create a command shortcut or a script in another words as a shortcut on the desktop ? | 22:07 |
| AnxiousNut | Is there an app for gnome similar to KDE's desktop resizable area? | 22:07 |
| CkhiKuzad | xomp, i know that it takes a while, and thanks Loshki/ubottu | 22:07 |
| GeekSquid | xomp: seems like ssh server isn't running on your VPS | 22:07 |
| xomp | Beyecixramd, could someone please help me with SFTP'ing into my ubuntu VPS? I'm getting an error in WinSCP of http://img580.imageshack.us/img580/323/sftp.jpg | 22:07 |
| Beyecixramd | AnxiousNut: yes, the upcoming GNOME Shell | 22:07 |
| xomp | GeekSquid, I am able to ssh into the VPS just fine though | 22:08 |
| xomp | GeekSquid, and the sftp subset is loaded | 22:08 |
| DrGrov | how do I get that gngeo package uninstalled now then? | 22:08 |
| greezmunkey | c0rrupt0r: that I have no advice on, sorry. check at http://www.sane-project.org there may be a forum there you can contact. | 22:08 |
| Beyecixramd | xomp: have you installed the adequate packages and opened ports in both sides? | 22:08 |
| GeekSquid | xomp: reccommend using filezilla, it works well with sftp on port 22 | 22:08 |
| c0rrupt0r | greezmunkey: Thank you for your help I surely will do what you suggest | 22:09 |
| xomp | Beyecixramd, according to my host (DME Hosting) they don't block any ports :S as for adequate packages, I'm not aware of what I should have/not have heh | 22:09 |
| greezmunkey | c0rrupt0r: heh, there is #sane...I haven't checked it though. | 22:09 |
| Black_Phantom | ok a simpler question, How do I make a script ? | 22:09 |
| Beyecixramd | xomp: issue sudo install sftp, or things like that | 22:09 |
| Beyecixramd | xomp: anyway, your question is more appropiate to be asked in #Ubuntu-server | 22:09 |
| Beyecixramd | anyways, im out, see you people | 22:10 |
| xomp | Beyecixramd, cheers | 22:10 |
| xomp | GeekSquid, Filezilla gives "Out of Memory" error when trying to connect to it on port 22 | 22:11 |
| CkhiKuzad | does anyone know why whenever i type "yes" in a terminal, it suddenly goes yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy (but much longer, and in a new line) | 22:11 |
| GeekSquid | xomp: in the left hand side address bar where you would put the hostname ... start with sftp://hostname or ip ... | 22:12 |
| Loshki | xomp: two things to try: first is hushlogin: http://www.debian-administration.org/article/Giving_yourself_a_quieter_SSH_login. The second is keyed login: http://realprogrammers.com/how_to/sftp_and_scp.html | 22:12 |
| greezmunkey | CkhiKuzad: what happens when you type yoyo? | 22:13 |
| xomp | GeekSquid, yeah same out of memory error as before :P | 22:13 |
| DrGrov | how do I get that gngeo package uninstalled now then which I downloaded and installed? PM please | 22:13 |
| xomp | Loshki, I'll take a look into that thanks | 22:13 |
| craigbass1976 | Wow; upgraded a neighbor to Lucid (from hardy) and nothing works. | 22:13 |
| CkhiKuzad | greezmunkey: bash: yoyo: command not found | 22:13 |
| craigbass1976 | Well, X and the network; other than that things might be fine | 22:13 |
| xomp | Loshki, it's strange because I never get any MOTD or anything of the sorts when logging into my SSH | 22:13 |
| Loshki | techpraxis: I wouldn't be surprised. Grub2 is relatively new. If you can't find an existing bug in launchpad, please file a new nig for it... | 22:13 |
| James-q | CkhiKuzad : Press Enter instead. | 22:14 |
| Armageddon | there is a package, or so I've been told, that makes Ubuntu i386 or 32bit use more then 3GB of RAM, can anyone help ? | 22:14 |
| greezmunkey | CkhiKuzad: that is wierd, I think it's supposed to do that, interesting! | 22:14 |
| Loshki | techpraxis: nig -> bug (off by one key...) | 22:14 |
| CkhiKuzad | i guess its supposed to scare people who try to do apt-get without using superuser powers. | 22:14 |
| Slart | Armageddon: you're probably looking for a PAE-enabled kernel | 22:14 |
| greezmunkey | CkhiKuzad: check this: man yes | 22:14 |
| jahnkeanater | sudo dpkg --configure -a exit status 1 | 22:14 |
| Loshki | xomp: can you sftp from the server into the server? | 22:14 |
| CkhiKuzad | like "are you root" "yes" "yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy" | 22:15 |
| jahnkeanater | help | 22:15 |
| greezmunkey | CkhiKuzad: check this: man yes | 22:15 |
| xomp | Loshki, yeah | 22:15 |
| CkhiKuzad | just did | 22:15 |
| Slart | Armageddon: PAE (physical address extensions or something like that) enables you to use more than 4GB on a 32bit system.. I think it's enabled on all the server kernels.. not desktop kernels | 22:15 |
| James-q | CkhiKuzad : Time to clean your keyboard..something got under Yyyyyyyyyyyyyy! | 22:15 |
| vithos | how do you change the console resolution in 10.04? | 22:15 |
| Loshki | CkhiKuzad: 'yes' is a unix command. man yes.... | 22:15 |
| SwedeMike | there are PAE kernels available for desktop. | 22:15 |
| CkhiKuzad | if it uses a lot of ram/cpu during its running, its looks kinda like a DoS. | 22:15 |
| acicula | yes is usufull for autoconfiguring kernels | 22:16 |
| Flannel | Slart, Armageddon: There's a -pae generic (desktop) kernel as of 9.10 too now | 22:16 |
| jricslima | ola | 22:16 |
| greezmunkey | CkhiKuzad: can be a bit hard to break out of, I find, as well ! | 22:16 |
| compaq_ | hi, I am having trouble with zoom out. First of all, water is <super>? So, I had my laptop set up a while back with Karmic, so that if I click the left side of the screen it zooms out. Now I just installed lucid on my desktop, and made the same config change in compiz settings manager, section scale, and it doesn't work. | 22:16 |
| Loshki | xomp: weird. Still, harmless to try the above suggestions.... | 22:16 |
| jricslima | como fazer para não mais receber emails do python? | 22:16 |
| CkhiKuzad | i just do CTRL+C | 22:16 |
| SwedeMike | tonio904__: why three clients? | 22:16 |
| Slart | Flannel: ah.. nice.. thanks | 22:16 |
| Loshki | !pt | jricslima | 22:16 |
| ubottu | jricslima: Por favor, use #ubuntu-br para ajuda em português. Para a comunidade local portuguêsa, #ubuntu-pt. Obrigado. | 22:17 |
| CkhiKuzad | !es | jricslima | 22:17 |
| ubottu | jricslima: En la mayoría de canales de Ubuntu se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español o charlar entra en el canal #ubuntu-es. Escribe "/join #ubuntu-es" (sin comillas) y dale a enter. | 22:17 |
| CkhiKuzad | oh. | 22:17 |
| xomp | Loshki, ok :) | 22:17 |
| jricslima | ok | 22:17 |
| CkhiKuzad | either way, he knows. | 22:17 |
| Loshki | CkhiKuzad: yes, but it *was* portuguese... | 22:17 |
| CkhiKuzad | Loshki: i didnt know that... WOOT! i learn more every day ^^ | 22:18 |
| Loshki | CkhiKuzad: me too... | 22:18 |
| techpraxis | Loshki, yes i think i am going to do that later this afternoon. one thing that may be causing the failure of grub-pc to install is that all my pv names have dashes in them -- you know they did that workaround in debian so that this would mean that names have two dashes if you originally put a dash. i found a bug in grub2 last year that was filed under debian, do not know if ubuntu picked it up | 22:18 |
| DrGrov | Any frontend for Dgen, the Sega Genesis Emulator? | 22:18 |
| copb_phoenix | How do I scan a DOS floppy (mounted under /media/) for errors? Is there a way to do so from the command line? | 22:19 |
| CkhiKuzad | i'm getting to the point where rather than using gnome-terminal, i think i will just use guake | 22:19 |
| techpraxis | but the error is the "pv0: physical volume not found" i have never had a physical volume named pv0 | 22:19 |
| not_an_andy | hello everybody, what is the console command for check disk? | 22:19 |
| Alex_21 | How can I set up my fixed-width serial printer under Hardy? | 22:19 |
| Alex_21 | Please. | 22:19 |
| martinam | martinam | 22:19 |
| SwedeMike | copb_phoenix: umount it, then do dd if=/dev/fd0 of=/dev/null and see if it succeeds. | 22:19 |
| Loshki | techpraxis: scary, and well outside my expertise, sorry... | 22:19 |
| GeekSquid | not_an_andy: fsck | 22:19 |
| greezmunkey | acicula: the man page give absolutely no information on the yes command - seems like I heard of that years ago. Maybe it was there for benchmarking? | 22:19 |
| tarvid | is there a lighter pvr than myth? | 22:20 |
| bindir | I have an older gigabyte amd 939 board with onboard lan, when I try enabling 4GB ram support the NIC stops working, if I turn off the support I lose ~500mb of ram but my NIC works (ubuntu 8.04 LT zimbra server) | 22:20 |
| test34 | tarvid, less features? | 22:21 |
| compaq_ | how do you zoom out? | 22:21 |
| Loshki | greezmunkey: the 'yes' man page doesn't say much, but then again, the command doesn't do much. It's been there for decades though. For testing teletypes maybe? | 22:21 |
| test34 | bindir, 32bit OS ? | 22:21 |
| greezmunkey | acicula: O'Reily says this - I doubt it's usefullness though: Useful in scripts and in the background; its output can be piped to a program that issues prompts | 22:21 |
| techpraxis | Loshki, understood. and yes, disturbing. it is actually grub-probe that generates the error. looking back on all the problems with grub2 in the first week of release, grub-probe appears to implicated in many off them. ubuntu unresolved bugs for grub2 are prominentlyy mentioning that three different fixes for grub-probe were committed since may 10. | 22:22 |
| bindir | test34: 64bit SMP | 22:22 |
| greezmunkey | Loshki: right, printheads - baselining line printers probably! | 22:22 |
| Alex_21 | Sorry, how? | 22:22 |
| Alex_21 | I need to set this fixed-width printer up. | 22:22 |
| Alex_21 | Lol | 22:22 |
| tarvid | test34, I would like to capture the stuff I play on tvtime | 22:23 |
| Alex_21 | It is giving me a tough time. | 22:23 |
| skinnymg1 | im going to build myself a new computer and need to know if this mobo is going to do ok with Ubuntu is there anyone i can send the link to for advice | 22:23 |
| Loshki | techpraxis: Frankly, I'm underwhelmed with grub2 stuff. The scripts are terribly convoluted and look like they were done in a hurry... | 22:23 |
| techpraxis | Loshki, i am glad i am not the only one who feels this way | 22:23 |
| copb_phoenix | SwedeMike: an error: "dd: opening `/dev/fd0': No such file or directory" | 22:23 |
| JayX | how cani get a list of allchat rooms on the freenode server? | 22:24 |
| jpds | JayX: /msg Alis list | 22:24 |
| SwedeMike | copb_phoenix: then I guess it's called something else, you need to replace /dev/fd0 with whatever the drive is called | 22:24 |
| techpraxis | Loshki, i looked at the grub-probe script this morning and noted several places where function calls could be thrown off by parameters not anticipated in the *) for the switch | 22:24 |
| Loshki | skinnymg1: usually I check reviews on newegg and look for someone who says it worked (or didn't) on Ubuntu. If that doesn't work, your next best bet is to check the individual chipsets, but it's a gamble at that point... | 22:24 |
| _ba | any ideas why when i do ls /etc it hangs and locks up my ssh session? | 22:25 |
| [fade] | too much data | 22:25 |
| greezmunkey | Loshki: wow, pipe the output of yes (some page width string) to a printer and put it in the background...That would drive an administrator crazy. | 22:25 |
| techpraxis | i am going to have to file that bug report. the annoying thing is that the maintainers of grub appear to be so satisfied that they have committed fixes | 22:25 |
| copb_phoenix | SwedeMike: It's an external drive hooked via USB. How would I go about finding out it's name? | 22:25 |
| JayX | jpds, dont work :D | 22:25 |
| skinnymg1 | Loshki, it has the Intel G31 chipset | 22:25 |
| Loshki | techpraxis: I boot 10.04 from a grub1 menu. It's unsupported... | 22:25 |
| JayX | SwedeMike, they thanks! i got my files archives | 22:25 |
| JayX | -s +d | 22:25 |
| techpraxis | Loshki, hmmm that IS interesting. maybe i can do the same thing | 22:25 |
| SwedeMike | copb_phoenix: check what it was mounted with before. | 22:26 |
| _ba | well it seems i can't view anything in the /etc dir if i do a less /etc/vsftpd.conf it hangs as well | 22:26 |
| === asd_ is now known as Guest44361 | ||
| Guest44361 | \join #python.de | 22:26 |
| JayX | how cani get a list of allchat rooms on the freenode server? | 22:26 |
| Loshki | skinnymg1: I run g31 myself on an ECS G31-T M mobo (bundle from frys) | 22:27 |
| techpraxis | Loshki, my drive is formatting GPT, would that preclude doing as you mentioned (knowing that you did NOT suggest it, acknowledging it is UNSUPPORTED) -- but grub-pc is not working properly for my use case that is for sure. | 22:27 |
| skinnymg1 | GIGABYTE GA-G31M-ES2L is the mobo im looking at | 22:27 |
| compaq_ | is anyone here using desktop zoom out, I can't work it | 22:27 |
| kaddi | Hi, I need help with Virtualbox.. I uninstalled the OSE version to test the closed source version, but didn't like it much. However now when I try to install VB-ose it says: * No suitable module for running kernel found [fail]. I'm running a 64bit lucid install. What do I need to do to be able to install Virtualbox? | 22:28 |
| not_an_andy | is there a check disk command in linux? | 22:28 |
| Loshki | techpraxis: I got the idea from http://fordflux.com/blog/linux/downgrade-grub-2/ and noting that upgrading to 9.X had the option to keep grub1... | 22:28 |
| pepee | not_an_andy, fsck | 22:28 |
| kaddi | not_an_andy: maybe youre looking for fsck? | 22:28 |
| duffydack | kaddi, sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup | 22:28 |
| not_an_andy | pepee, thanks | 22:29 |
| pepee | lol I had that problem with vbox too | 22:29 |
| pepee | not_an_andy, np | 22:29 |
| bindir | hmm | 22:30 |
| sebsebseb | Hi | 22:30 |
| bindir | is there a way to apt-get install kernel 2.6.32 for ubuntu 8.04 LTS? | 22:30 |
| sebsebseb | bindir: Why do you want it? There is probably also a ppa. | 22:31 |
| bindir | seems like apt just wants to go from 2.6.24-26 to 2.6.24-27 after I do apt-get update | 22:31 |
| Daekdroom | It won't jump from 2.6.24 to 2.6.32 if you don't upgrade your ubuntu version | 22:31 |
| techpraxis | Loshki, many thanks for that link. I understand at my own risk. but thanks. | 22:31 |
| bindir | sebsebseb: I'm thinking it might be a driver/kernel issue related to my NIC not working with 4gb mem support on in the bios | 22:31 |
| kaddi | duffydack: thanks, that at least allowed for VB to be opened. :) Now it says "Please install the virtualbox-ose-dkms package and execute 'modprobe vboxdrv' as root" when I try to start an image. When I type said command in the command line the output is: "FATAL: Module vboxdrv not found." | 22:32 |
| sebsebseb | Daekdroom: Or find a ppa for later kernel, or install them selves, yeah. | 22:32 |
| dexter_ | i know this is a stupid question and i don't want to bother you but am doing so out of desperation. I am looking for some decent wireless noice cancling headphones copatible with ubuntu yet can't seem to find any or find a form that could provide me with a recomendation. If you know of any or of a forum that could offer me a good recomendation can you please tell me. | 22:32 |
| xxploit | bindir, there is a ubuntu kernel ppa | 22:32 |
| Loshki | skinnymg1: I took a look at newegg reviews. One reviewer had NIC problems, another mentions fan speed issues, but half a dozen say ubuntu ran with no problems. Make sure you can RMA it if the worst comes to the worst... | 22:32 |
| Loshki | techpraxis: best of luck... | 22:32 |
| sebsebseb | bindir: 8.04 is getting quite old now really, you can directly upgrade it to 10.04. However no Ext4 file system or Grub 2 on upgrade, but you don't need those anyway. | 22:32 |
| Daekdroom | xxploit: That ppa can't work as a .deb repo, can it? | 22:32 |
| duffydack | kaddi, you uninstalled ose right? | 22:33 |
| bindir | sebsebseb: zimbra doesn't support 10.04 | 22:33 |
| xxploit | http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v2.6.32/ | 22:33 |
| sebsebseb | bindir: What's zimbra? | 22:33 |
| aha | ... | 22:33 |
| Daekdroom | bindir: Is it still under warranty? | 22:33 |
| kaddi | duffydack: i uninstalled ose, installed the closed source one, uninstalled the closed source one and am now trying to reinstall the ose one | 22:33 |
| Loshki | sebsebseb: bindir: 10.04 with grub1 and ext3 sounds like the best of both worlds, if you ask me.... | 22:33 |
| bindir | Daekdroom: the mainboard? | 22:33 |
| sebsebseb | Loshki: oh? | 22:33 |
| duffydack | kaddi, tried modprobe -r {whatever module ose is} ? | 22:33 |
| kaddi | duffydack: so I know it was working before and I don't understand why it ain working now | 22:33 |
| Daekdroom | bindir: the system? | 22:33 |
| sebsebseb | Loshki: Ext4 is good, but Grub 2 most of us don't need that. | 22:33 |
| bindir | Daekdroom: no | 22:33 |
| bindir | sebsebseb: zimbra is a mail/calendar (exchange replacement) | 22:34 |
| kaddi | duffydack: modprobe -r vboxdrv returns the same error message | 22:34 |
| duffydack | kaddi, ah..you want ose back.. just uninstall everything virtualbox.. that means autoremove --purge | 22:34 |
| UrbanGreenZone | how do I stop the "Default Keyring" from popping up everytime I restart | 22:34 |
| sebsebseb | bindir: As far as I know Evolution has some support now for Exchange | 22:34 |
| sebsebseb | bindir: also if you can install a program for 8.04, then you probably can for 10.04 as well | 22:34 |
| kaddi | duffydack: won't that delete all the VM I installed as well? | 22:34 |
| bindir | sebsebseb: zimbra has a commerical version that doesn't support 10.04 | 22:35 |
| skinnymg1 | Loshki, ty | 22:35 |
| bindir | http://www.zimbra.com/downloads/ne-downloads.html | 22:35 |
| sebsebseb | bindir: yes it may say it doesn't run on 10.04, but it probably will | 22:35 |
| techpraxis | Loshki, it looks like the community ubuntu pages have not yet gotten an "encryptedfilesystems" page that is updated for lucid? but i can fix initrd on my own; it appears that the kernel post-inst scripts are not updating the initrd either. unbelievable. and they call this "long-term support"? | 22:35 |
| tofu_ | hola a todos | 22:35 |
| techpraxis | sometimes ubuntu scares me. | 22:35 |
| Loshki | sebsebseb: this channel has seen its share of mysterious behaviour reports with ext4. We've never known if it was pilot error or something more insidious. If you want good stability, ext3.... | 22:36 |
| GeekSquid | !es | tofu_ | 22:36 |
| duffydack | kaddi, no | 22:36 |
| ubottu | tofu_: En la mayoría de canales de Ubuntu se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español o charlar entra en el canal #ubuntu-es. Escribe "/join #ubuntu-es" (sin comillas) y dale a enter. | 22:36 |
| techpraxis | Loshki, i think i am going to start a blog and call it "Ubuntu Lucid from scratch" | 22:36 |
| UrbanGreenZone | anyone ... Prevent "Default Keyring" on startup? | 22:36 |
| sebsebseb | techpraxis: The community help pages also have a lot of old info, however I read that they are going to completly re do that for 10.10. | 22:36 |
| tofu_ | muchas gracias ubottu | 22:36 |
| robertzaccour | is there anything besides xubuntu recommended for netbooks? besides lxde i mean | 22:36 |
| bub | I want to be able to do 3D models, what is the best 'free' program to use for Ubuntu? | 22:36 |
| James-q | Zimbara nice name! | 22:36 |
| onetinsoldier | bub: probably blender | 22:37 |
| Loshki | techpraxis: the encrypted stuff scares me anyway. Periodically we get people here who can't decrypt their file systems. It's very hard to know if it's pilot error or something more insidious... | 22:37 |
| onetinsoldier | !info blender | 22:37 |
| sebsebseb | bindir: I'll have a look at the site | 22:37 |
| bub | onetinsoldier: thankyou :) | 22:37 |

| techpraxis | Loshki, yeah it seems that Canonical was promoting the LUKS option with 9.10, or am I misperceiving what seemed to me like a distinct increase in boasting that Ubuntu "now came with full disk encryption capabilities" in media releases last year?? | 22:38 |

| techpraxis | Loshki, correction admonishment is proper. but the initrd thing NEEDs to be better documented. Perhaps that is what I am going to have contribute to user documentation, as soon as I learn it for ubuntu. I know it on Debian pretty well, but Ubuntu has its own weird tweaks to initamfs-tools | 22:40 |
| gafir | SwedeMike / GeekSquid: do you see any reason why this is happening? :-) | 22:40 |
| bindir | sebsebseb: it's not a matter of it running or not on 10.04 it's if something goes wrong they can just say "oh we don't support 10.04" | 22:40 |
| SwedeMike | copb_phoenix: if it copied the whole thing then you dont have any bad blocks. | 22:40 |

| techpraxis | sebsebseb, the grub-pc scripts would never write a 'grub.cfg' without a /boot prefix in linux and initrd (on systems with encrypted root, separate /boot is necessary). so i had to boot from initramfs after manual cryptsetup and activation of lvm pvs | 22:52 |
| sebsebseb | MACscr: or use another theme, that isn't the default black or grey theme | 22:52 |

| Loshki | sebsebseb: dunno, the last thing techpraxis told me was he had plymouth questions. Maybe I misunderstood.... | 22:52 |
| techpraxis | but 2 times out of 3, plymouth bs will interfere and the system will never boot. 1 time out of 3, system will boot (after doing the manual stuff i said) so: i asked Loshki if i could remove plymouth | 22:52 |

| jahnkeanater | for what | 22:54 |
| onetinsoldier | to edit a file | 22:54 |
| duffydack | MACscr, fireftp plugin for firefox or filezilla are both good clients | 22:54 |

Though I'll have to go through and separate the files a second time, this did indeed fix the errors, and I learned a couple things along the way. The channel's reference for "How to ask for help" is very nice, too. Have a nice day, and, again, thanks. | 22:56 |
| Loshki | techpraxis: NimbleRabit may simply have to wait until a sound/spdif expert comes on line. Sometimes it's just unavoidable... | 22:56 |
| techpraxis | sebsebseb, Loshki thanks. so question is still outstanding: if i am correct in that 10.04 cannot handle my LUKS/lvm setup (disk is GPT formatted, yes i do have the parted gpt boot thing fixed for grub), will plymouth keep me from being able to boot after i have manually booted from initramfs and if so | 22:56 |
| onetinsoldier | jahnkeanater: ok, you need to find the section for linux-restricted-modules-generic, and just delete the entire section for it | 22:56 |
| MACscr | |_ocke: are you talking about gftp? | 22:57 |
| onetinsoldier | jahnkeanater: then save the file and try... sudo apt-get -f install | 22:57 |
| duffydack | Is gftp even maintained anymore? | 22:57 |
| techpraxis | Loshki re: Nimble i was simply putting it out there. i have worked support for years although not in Ubuntu. i know how long it takes on this channel and its okay, its free after all. | 22:57 |
| sebsebseb | techpraxis: Plymouth as far as I know should boot up fine, unless you have a propritary Nivdia or ATI driver installed. oh and I think there will be an issue for Intel sometimes even | 22:57 |
| MACscr | maybe its me, but i have always thought filezilla was way to ws_ftp like or whatever that old 1995 type ftp client is | 22:58 |

| coderipper | :D | 22:59 |
| duffydack | coderipper, lottanzb is probably the easiest | 22:59 |

| onetinsoldier | jahnkeanater: darn. try that command. what package is it giving en error for now? | 22:59 |
| duffydack | coderipper, ninan is nice but it needs java and uses browser for frontend and isnt just a quick install :) Ill be glad to walk you through it tho. | 23:00 |

| jahnkeanater | linux-restricted-modules-generic | 23:00 |

| jahnkeanater | linux-restricted-modules-2.6.28-18-generic | 23:00 |
| techpraxis | sebsebseb, grub.cfg is incorrect, so i have to edit in grub2::eliminate /boot prefix, eliminate /dev/mapper/root-myvg-myvolumename | 23:01 |

| techpraxis | sebsebseb, yes, Loshki provided me with unsupported example of grub1 in 9.10. i will investigate that. i just asked him a follow up on how to remove plymouth or otherwise keep it from interfering | 23:03 |
| twbst | I get errors when I try to upgrade and the CDs won't install. My PC ignores the cd | 23:03 |
| sebsebseb | techpraxis: right, but do you have a propritary NIvida or ATI driver installed? | 23:03 |
| James-q | badnaam : You turn it on its on ! | 23:03 |
| twbst | Yes, from 9.1 | 23:03 |
| sebsebseb | twbst: So you got a working 9.10 on there at the moment? | 23:03 |
| jahnkeanater | how mutch do i remove | 23:03 |
| kjele | twbst: Desktop cd's? | 23:03 |
| twbst | Yes. | 23:03 |
| sebsebseb | twbst: ok you don't upgrade using the 10.04 CD | 23:03 |
| vlt | Hello. I'm using pidgin and Google's XMPP for IM with someone. When we initiate a video call we only see ourselves. Any idea why? | 23:04 |
| emry | Anyway, thanks! : ) | 23:04 |
| twbst | Sorry. I was trying a clean install with the CD seeing as the upgrade didn't work | 23:04 |
| sebsebseb | twbst: maybe you got a bad CD | 23:04 |
| sebsebseb | !md5sum | twbst | 23:04 |
| ubottu | twbst: 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 | 23:04 |
| badnaam | thanks james, so it I need to keep the gui open for the rules to be active? | 23:04 |
| twbst | I tried 2 cds each made from a different burner neither worked. the check sum was correct | 23:05 |
| techpraxis | sebsebseb, yes will stay in plymouth graphical boot screen forever 2/3 of time | 23:05 |

| jahnkeanater | Package linux-restricted-modules-generic is not installed | 23:05 |
| fubared | hi, is there a special ubuntu channel for developers? | 23:05 |
| techpraxis | duffydack, what problem did you run into? | 23:05 |
| onetinsoldier | jahnkeanater: ok, sounds better | 23:05 |
| jahnkeanater | dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of linux-generic | 23:05 |
| sebsebseb | twbst: since your on 9.10? md5sum nameofgoeshere.iso once in the folder with the ISO so CD, or just put it in home. get the code. and compare with the code on http://releases.ubuntu.com/10.04 if the code is the same you have a good idea. you could even do sha1sum and sha2sum as well if you want | 23:05 |
| jahnkeanater | so what do i do | 23:06 |
| techpraxis | sebsebseb, yes, i do have proprietary nvidia installed | 23:06 |
| onetinsoldier | jahnkeanater: try... sudo apt-get -f install | 23:06 |
| sebsebseb | twbst: cd /home/yourfolder for example | 23:06 |
| jahnkeanater | E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem | 23:06 |
| techpraxis | sebsebseb, latest for my card from nvidia.com | 23:06 |
| sebsebseb | twbst: however by default terminal is always in home, so makes sense to have your ISO in there, then do the check in terminal | 23:06 |
| sebsebseb | techpraxis: right uhmm | 23:06 |
| kjele | jahnkeanater: it says what to do | 23:07 |
| enav | i got noob question when i run ls-l on terminal.... what is the meaning of the "d" on this output drwxr-xr-x | 23:07 |
| jahnkeanater | ok i do that and | 23:07 |
| twbst | I already checked the md5sum and it is OKAY. I do not know what shal1sum and shal2sum is That is how new I am to this stuf | 23:07 |
| duffydack | sebsebseb, techpraxis once i installed cryptsetup and used the 'disk utility' to make it, I rebooted and had a slightly different res bootsplash to my already low res fglrx bootsplash, then it booted with random errors like panel failing to load, then rebooted and wireless failed to load, then again and clock applet failed to load.. I removed it and a reboot later it was ok | 23:07 |
| jpds | enav: directory. | 23:07 |
| ubuntu__ | LOL | 23:07 |
| sebsebseb | techpraxis: 1. get it from repo. 2. only website as last resort. 3. yes propritary Nivida driver will make Plymouth not work properly | 23:07 |
| bobo123 | fubared: I supposed #ubuntu-devel and #ubuntu-beginners-dev is that | 23:07 |
| shardaine | ak spanish??? | 23:07 |
| jpds | !es | shardaine | 23:07 |
| ubottu | shardaine: En la mayoría de canales de Ubuntu se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español o charlar entra en el canal #ubuntu-es. Escribe "/join #ubuntu-es" (sin comillas) y dale a enter. | 23:07 |

| |_ocke | MACscr, sorry, i don't have any particular opinions, i never need to access more than one ftp at a time | 23:08 |
| shardaine | hey guys | 23:08 |
| sebsebseb | techpraxis: you can easilly have a text boot intead of Plymouth image, also there's a way to make it use the new open source driver only for Plymouth, and Nivida propritary driver for everything else, but I have not tried this yet | 23:08 |
| shardaine | i am using lubuntu | 23:08 |
| |_ocke | so i use whatever is available | 23:08 |
| shardaine | somebody can help me??? | 23:08 |
| jahnkeanater | Package linux-image-2.6.28-18-generic is not configured yet | 23:08 |

| CkhiKuzad | how would i boot an ubuntu 10.04 liveUSB with grub2 | 23:08 |
| badnaam | well the docs dont say anythnig about the gui has to be open for the rules to be enforced | 23:08 |
| MACscr | |_ocke: yeah, im a web dev and web host owner, so i work on a lot at the same time | 23:09 |
| coderipper | just installed lottanzb from the ppa repo. will give it a test hop. thx again, duffydack. | 23:09 |
| bobo123 | shardaine: : probably :-) just ask the question and you will see hehe | 23:09 |
| |_ocke | MACscr, if you like the way that the win prog works you can probably run it using wine | 23:09 |
| techpraxis | sebsebseb, aha -- i asked you a bit before do you have a good bookmarked page for how-to on plymouth such as what you just suggested as having text instead. i don't need graphical boot manager | 23:09 |
| onetinsoldier | jahnkeanater: well what happens if you try.... apt-get install linux-image-2.6.28-18-generic | 23:09 |
| badnaam | when it's open the rules do fine, but if I close the gui, I would assume the rules are already saved, no or am I missing something? | 23:09 |

| aeiou | can anyone explain shortly the benifits of a debian based system for installing / managing programs? i've been told debian based os's do this well, but havent been given a reason | 23:10 |
| badnaam | well, i was using firestarter until this forum recommended gfw, firestarter is even worse, if I create a rule, it seems its never applied | 23:10 |
| badnaam | and ... | 23:10 |
| duffydack | coderipper, cool. ninan is the more featured advanced option.. doesnt take a lot to install, you just have to know how | 23:10 |
| craigbass1976 | jahnkeanater, heh, I just did that at my neighbor's house; her hardy-lucid upgrade didn't go quite as smoothly as I'd hoped | 23:10 |
| craigbass1976 | jahnkeanater, it worked though... | 23:11 |
| onetinsoldier | jahnkeanater: i don't know | 23:11 |
| badnaam | I have 2 interfaces, eth0 and wlan0, for some reason, if I turn the wireless off and keep eth0 open, the firestarter acts like its bound to wlan0 (even though I ran the wizard for eth0) and it won't let me control the firewall | 23:11 |
| FoolishOwl | aeiou, what are the benefits of package management in general? Or of the Debian system in particular? | 23:11 |
| CkhiKuzad | how would i boot an ubuntu 10.04 liveUSB with grub2? i need to know how to configure it | 23:11 |
| sebsebseb | twbst: sha1sum and that other one, is similar to md5sum | 23:11 |
| aeiou | FoolishOwl, the debian system of package management | 23:11 |
| jahnkeanater | :) it didnt for me | 23:11 |
| craigbass1976 | FoolishOwl, package management means you don't have to compile your own software. | 23:11 |
| twbst | Do I find that at the same site as the md5sum? | 23:11 |
| jahnkeanater | im stuck in 9.04 with a broken synpack and no browser | 23:12 |
| jahnkeanater | fun | 23:12 |
| techpraxis | sebsebseb, here is one page talking about /etc/default/grub changes to make proprietary nvidia work with plymouth: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-1446132.html | 23:12 |
| craigbass1976 | FoolishOwl, you can if you want, but some people just want to run their computers. | 23:12 |
| sebsebseb | techpraxis: I can give you the thing, so you can do a text boot | 23:12 |
| plouffe | is there an app that lets me add bookmarks to any pdf document? | 23:12 |
| sebsebseb | techpraxis: and I have even tested in a vm, works well | 23:12 |
| duffydack | CkhiKuzad, the usb stick boots itself, if your bios supports it. | 23:12 |
| shardaine | hey guys can you help me please??? | 23:12 |
| craigbass1976 | jahnkeanater, what happens when you run the command? | 23:12 |
| techpraxis | sebsebseb, that sounds most promising | 23:12 |
| FoolishOwl | craigbass1976, thanks, I was trying to answer someone else's question. | 23:12 |
| craigbass1976 | Sorry. | 23:13 |
| CkhiKuzad | duffydack my bios doesnt support it. thats why i specifically said i need help making grub2 boot it | 23:13 |
| === jade is now known as Guest14855 | ||
| shardaine | hoy can i install openoffice if i have lubuntu | 23:13 |
| FoolishOwl | aeiou, I gather there's some rivalry between the deb system and the rpm system. I find the deb system a bit more robust and easier to use. | 23:13 |
| CkhiKuzad | shardaine: try sudo apt-cache search openoffice | 23:13 |
| sebsebseb | techpraxis: remove plymouth-label, plymouth-theme-ubuntu-{logo,text}, and plymouth-x11; then remove "splash" from /etc/default/grub and do sudo update-grub | 23:13 |
| shardaine | thanks | 23:14 |
| aeiou | FoolishOwl, its just someone was trying to tell me that the package manager in debian is much better than arch, i just wanted to see if there was some reasoning behind this | 23:14 |
| twbst | and will there be instructions like the md5sum? | 23:14 |
| CkhiKuzad | it will give you the names of the openoffice things, and when you find the one you want (usually just openoffice) then do apt-get install [the one you picked] | 23:14 |
| FoolishOwl | One distinction is that deb packages have the distinctions between required, recommended, and suggested packages. | 23:14 |
| === pure_hate is now known as nopsled | ||

| techpraxis | sebsebseb, grub-pc is broken on my system | 23:14 |
| keenken | if I'm in shell emulator, what command do I use to find out how big a file is? | 23:14 |
| duffydack | CkhiKuzad, ah.. there is a way to boot an iso... you`ll have to google it tho | 23:15 |
| sebsebseb | techpraxis: that's odd | 23:15 |
| keenken | df [filename]? | 23:15 |
| techpraxis | sebsebseb, or more properly put -- that system: only one i dared to 'upgrade' to 10.04 LTS | 23:15 |
| FoolishOwl | keenken, ls -l nameOfFile | 23:15 |
| keenken | just guessing* | 23:15 |
| _OskaR_ | hi. Is there a way to rediscover HW in ubuntu ? | 23:15 |
| sebsebseb | techpraxis: upgrade from what? | 23:15 |
| jahnkeanater | craigbass1976: waht command | 23:15 |
| CkhiKuzad | duffydack: i know, its called loopback. i want to boot a liveUSB drive. not an iso. | 23:15 |
| keenken | FoolishOwl, thanks a lot | 23:15 |
| duffydack | CkhiKuzad, unless Dr_Willis is around, which he is not | 23:15 |
| techpraxis | sebsebseb, yes it is odd. no one here has been able to provide any insight, besides general comments of 'grub2 sucks' | 23:15 |
| CkhiKuzad | damn you Dr_Willis! right when i need his help ._. | 23:15 |
| FoolishOwl | df reports on filesystem usage. | 23:15 |
| bhartman | Hi, everyone. I'm having a weird problem. I'm getting a "cannot directory: no such file or directory" when I try to run the mkdir command. Why would it say "no such file or directory"? I *know* there's no such directory. That's why I'm trying to create it... | 23:15 |
| sebsebseb | twbst: yes it's all there | 23:15 |
| _OskaR_ | hi. Is there a way to rediscover HW in ubuntu ? pulse has no soundcard or hdmi atm | 23:16 |
| craigbass1976 | jahnkeanater, sudo dpkg --configure -a | 23:16 |
| keenken | FoolishOwl, what is the reading then? | 23:16 |
| bobo123 | What am I doing wrong it the smb sharing of a folder in this ubuntu10.04 computer can't even be opened from this same computer? | 23:16 |
| jahnkeanater | :) | 23:16 |
| kjele | bhartman: try with -p flag | 23:16 |
| keenken | FoolishOwl, is it in bits or bytes? | 23:16 |
| twbst | Thanks... I will try that. If that does not work, I will probably try ordering a cd. | 23:16 |
| craigbass1976 | bhartman, have you got permission to be writing to wherever you're making the directory? | 23:16 |
| duffydack | CkhiKuzad, install grub on it? grub-install /dev/sdb for example? I`m not sure its that simple tbh. | 23:16 |
| shardaine | ckhikuzad: hey thanks but mmmm now i dont know how tu execute openoffice remember i am using lubuntu whit L | 23:16 |
| techpraxis | sebsebseb, : grub-pc fails with "grub-probe error: unable to find physical volume pv0: load filesystem modules manually' then of course dpkg exit with 1 | 23:16 |
| sebsebseb | shardaine: Have you got Open Office installed yet? | 23:16 |
| FoolishOwl | keenken, oops, it's in "blocks". | 23:17 |
| sebsebseb | techpraxis: you can even have the old Grub instead, but I have never changed Grub 2 to the old Grub in Ubuntu | 23:17 |
| bhartman | craigbass1976,: Yes. I'm running the command w/ sudo. And -p doesn't seem to help. | 23:17 |

| shardaine | mmmm i wrote sudo apt.cache searche openoffice in the terminal | 23:17 |
| sebsebseb | techpraxis: the old Grub is in the repo | 23:17 |
| bobo123 | I can here open shared folder that i have shared on my win98 computer, but can't open (neihter here or there) the ones I have shared here with the ubuntu computer..... what shall I do? | 23:17 |
| techpraxis | sebsebseb, yes Loshki sent me a link on how to downgrade to grub 1 in 9.10. i am going to attempt this | 23:17 |
| CkhiKuzad | shardaine its apt-cache not apt.cache | 23:17 |
| CkhiKuzad | shardaine: i use regular ubuntu. not lubuntu, i was giving you a universal way to | 23:17 |
| techpraxis | sebsebseb, old grub in repo? sweet. | 23:17 |
| CkhiKuzad | download it, sorry | 23:17 |
| sebsebseb | techpraxis: yep | 23:17 |
| Ankoku | Hello | 23:18 |
| sebsebseb | techpraxis: however I have a feeling it is isn't as simple as just removing Grub 2 and installing the old version | 23:18 |
| shardaine | yes yes sorry i wrote apt-cache | 23:18 |
| bobo123 | hello Ankoku | 23:18 |
| Ankoku | I was wondering if I could get a bit of help | 23:18 |
| kjele | bhartman: could you pastebin the command with the result? | 23:18 |
| techpraxis | sebsebseb, yes i am afraid of that | 23:18 |
| bhartman | This all started because I was trying to install the gspca driver, but I'm not having any luck. I can't get it to build. | 23:18 |
| sebsebseb | shardaine: right, but you don't know how to install Open Office still? | 23:18 |
| bhartman | ok, kjele | 23:18 |
| bobo123 | Ankoku: just ask the question :-) | 23:18 |

| shardaine | it iisnt in office | 23:19 |
| sebsebseb | shardaine: personally I wasn' that happy that they suggested to do that, since they could have just given you an apt-get command to install Open Office | 23:19 |
| bhartman | http://pastebin.com/eqKUGiGR | 23:19 |
| shardaine | one moment guys | 23:20 |
| shardaine | my so is lubuntu | 23:20 |
| sebsebseb | shardaine: also you could even install Software Center ( :( at American spelling, but that's the name of the program, Centre :) ) or Synaptic and install stuff graphically | 23:20 |
| sebsebseb | shardaine: lubuntu uses the same repo's as Ubuntu, so you can have the same programs | 23:20 |
| sebsebseb | shardaine: well most of the same programs anyway | 23:21 |
| shardaine | yes yes it havent mmmm software center | 23:21 |

| Ankoku | Do you know why Ubuntu would recognize my headphones but not my built in speakers? I believe they're alltec lansing speakers | 23:35 |
| sebsebseb | shardaine: why did he put Lubuntu on instead of Ubuntu? | 23:35 |
| duffydack | mengxr, yup | 23:35 |
| compaq | bobo123, thanks | 23:35 |
| sebsebseb | shardaine: I guess since he thought Lubuntu would run faster on the computer | 23:35 |
| th5418 | Can someone help me with my network settings? I just installed 10.04 and I can't get my DSL lan to start working... | 23:35 |

| sebsebseb | shardaine: Lubuntu is a version of Ubuntu that uses LXDE instead of Gnome | 23:35 |
| shardaine | i don understand you good | 23:36 |
| sebsebseb | shardaine: basically the look and most of the programs | 23:36 |
| th5418 | Can someone help me with my network settings? I just installed 10.04 and I can't get my DSL lan to start working... | 23:36 |
| sebsebseb | shardaine: anyway Lubuntu is not from Canonical who make Ubuntu, it's from the community instead, I think that's why it does not come with software centre at the moment | 23:36 |
| shardaine | mmmmmmmm | 23:36 |
| sebsebseb | !lubuntu | shardaine | 23:36 |
| ubottu | shardaine: lubuntu is a project to create a derivative of Ubuntu using the LXDE desktop environment. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu | 23:37 |
| shardaine | yes i know | 23:37 |
| sebsebseb | !ubuntu | shardaine | 23:37 |

| shardaine | wait | 23:37 |
| kjele | bhartman: If you read the READ_AND_INSTALL file the kernel that is supported is from 2.6.11 so there are some files that are missing. Which is what you see. | 23:37 |
| shardaine | my boyfriend couldnt install ubuntu | 23:37 |
