CtrlAlt | can a icon of the main menu change depending on the theme that is being used? | 00:39 |
---|---|---|
Chesamo | CtrlAlt: Yes | 00:44 |
CtrlAlt | thx,;lookit's icon is always black | 00:48 |
Chesamo | CtrlAlt: Typo? | 00:49 |
CtrlAlt | only the comma :P | 00:50 |
CtrlAlt | https://launchpad.net/lookit | 00:51 |
Chesamo | CtrlAlt: Not everything changes. Usually things like GEdit, Synaptic, etc. change. Rarely do additional packages have extra icon sets. | 00:52 |
CtrlAlt | so I should let it be? | 00:54 |
CtrlAlt | i always had the "take screenshot" icon on the panel, and this is waaay better :) | 00:55 |
Chesamo | CtrlAlt: Yes, unless you want to create your own icon. You can manually edit each Launcher and override its settings. | 00:55 |
CtrlAlt | yeah i've already done that | 00:56 |
CtrlAlt | it's ok :) | 00:56 |
CtrlAlt | it has a bright ico which is used on the panel with dark themes, so i just changed it on the menu | 00:57 |
CtrlAlt | *icon | 00:57 |

Chinta | Hi everyone, problem: I connect to internet via a router but for some reason I can only connect to the router with a wired connection, wireless fails to connect. I just moved to a different apartment, in the old one the wireless connection to the same router worked fine but using a different modem. Can anyone help me? I have no idea where to start from. | 05:58 |
ddecator | so it sees the network i'm guessing? | 05:59 |
Chinta | Ahmm... I can see the router's name, and it tries to connect (green balls spinning), but it just fails, if thats what you ask | 06:01 |
PureEvil | hi | 06:01 |
ddecator | Chinta: strange. is there a password for the network? | 06:02 |
Chinta | I reset the router in case it was a router's password's issue. There shouldnt be any. | 06:04 |
PureEvil | any here know how to fix some problems I'm having running dual monitors on a ATI graphic gard? | 06:04 |
PureEvil | Card* | 06:04 |
ddecator | PureEvil: sorry, not something i'm familiar with, hopefully someone else can help you out | 06:04 |
PureEvil | yeah nobody seems to have a answer lol | 06:05 |
PureEvil | ATI dont even have drivers that work on 10.04 | 06:05 |
ddecator | Chinta: try right-clicking the network manager applet, select edit connections, and if you see yours listed in the wireless area selecting it, click edit, then check the box to connect automatically | 06:06 |
ddecator | PureEvil: yah, that's the toughest part... | 06:06 |
PureEvil | well the only other problem I'm having is with the game uplink lol | 06:06 |
PureEvil | for the record the problem I'm having is that the DCI monitor wants to refresh the screen alot, anytime there are high graphic items...Flash, You Tube, Screen Saver, some pics. | 06:08 |
Chinta | ddecator: is there a command to try to connect to the router so that I can see what the problem is? (I cant see the wireless networks now that Im wired to the router) | 06:10 |
ddecator | Chinta: there isn't really a simple one that i know of | 06:11 |
Chinta | Uhmmm, so you think I should disconnect and make sure that the "connect automatically" box is ticked? | 06:12 |
ddecator | well you can check that while on a wired connection | 06:15 |
Chinta | uhmmm... how? | 06:15 |
ddecator | right-click the network manager applet (the arrows if you're using the lucid default) and select "Edit Connections" | 06:15 |
PureEvil | my labtop works wireless but not wired lol | 06:15 |
PureEvil | I just gave up on that one | 06:16 |
ddecator | then find the Wireless sections and see if the network you want to connect to is listed | 06:16 |
Chinta | Oh, I see now, thanks. In fact, it is listed several times. Can that be a problem? | 06:17 |
PureEvil | do other people near you have wifi routers lol | 06:18 |
ddecator | shouldn't be, but you might as well reduce it to one | 06:18 |
Chinta | Ok, I will delete all the entries of my router. And yes, there are neighbors around with routers. | 06:19 |
PureEvil | I know in my apartment there are like 4 connections that say linksys lol | 06:20 |
Chinta | Actually most neighbors have a similar internet connection because high-speed Internet is included in the rent (Finland freaks). Sadly, tech support doesnt support Linux and I refuse to go back to Windows. | 06:22 |
Chinta | By the way, is it possible to connect to the same router twice, one using a cable and another one using the wireless? | 06:24 |
ddecator | simultaneously, not that i know of | 06:25 |
=== PureEvil is now known as PureEvil_AFK | ||
Chinta | Oh, then Im a shameless newbie. I must disconnect the cable and thus from Internet before I can see if I can connect to the router. | 06:26 |
Chinta | Ill be back. | 06:27 |

mohi2911 | hobgoblin: ping | 15:06 |
hobgoblin | hi mohi2911 - back in a while | 15:11 |
NongA_TongE | greetings.... I'm really hoping that someone can help a little... LAst night I upgraded to ubuntu 9.10 via update manager, and now my wifi is broke. The information on the forums was sadly inconclusive providing no workable solution that I could find. Could anyone here point me in the right direction? | 15:27 |
NongA_TongE | I should clarify that this upgrade was just an interrim upgrade so that I can then upgrade to 10/04 lts | 15:28 |
NongA_TongE | 10.04LTS | 15:28 |
NongA_TongE | hello? | 16:23 |
hobgoblin | hellp | 16:24 |
hobgoblin | and even hello | 16:24 |
NongA_TongE | greetings.... I'm really hoping that someone can help a little... LAst night I upgraded to ubuntu 9.10 via update manager, and now my wifi is broke. The information on the forums was sadly inconclusive providing no workable solution that I could find. Could anyone here point me in the right direction? | 16:24 |
hobgoblin | possibly - some more information will help, what wifi is it? if you are not sure - open a terminal and do lspci - paste the output to paste.ubuntu.com - put a name - enter and give us the new url | 16:26 |
NongA_TongE | Broadcom | 16:27 |
NongA_TongE | http://paste.ubuntu.com/439941/ | 16:29 |
hobgoblin | NongA_TongE: have you been here - solved thread with lot's of positives http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1309760 | 16:35 |
hobgoblin | wireless is unfortunately not something I've had much dealing with | 16:35 |
NongA_TongE | hobgoblin, thanks for the help. I don't know why that thread didn't come up in my initial search. there are about 5 other threads related to lost wifi with the 9.10 upgrade, and none offers nearly enough help. | 16:40 |
hobgoblin | cool - well I hope it helps you | 16:40 |
hobgoblin | it was actually my first result I think | 16:40 |
hobgoblin | NongA_TongE: if you've not heard of googlbuntu it's not bad as a search engine | 16:42 |
Akos | it's googleubuntu :P | 16:45 |
Akos | at least http://googleubuntu.com exists (: | 16:45 |
hobgoblin | Akos: yea :) always get that wrong - mostly because it was my second choice - my first choice appears to have died :( | 16:49 |
Akos | :P | 16:49 |
Akos | it's totally okay :P | 16:49 |
hobgoblin | oh good :) | 16:49 |
mohi2911 | hobgoblin: HELP | 16:50 |
hobgoblin | perhaps | 16:50 |
hobgoblin | what's up mohi2911 | 16:50 |
mohi2911 | i wrongly formatted one of my partitions and i lost everything in it :( | 16:51 |
Akos | auch | 16:51 |
mohi2911 | is there any way to recover em?? :( | 16:51 |
Chesamo | mohi2911: sudo unformat --please :P | 16:51 |
hobgoblin | mohi2911: stop accessing reboot with a livecd and hope you can get the info back with testdisk | 16:52 |
hobgoblin | all the time you are accessing it you can make the situation worse | 16:52 |
mohi2911 | ok | 16:52 |
mohi2911 | brb | 16:52 |
hobgoblin | measure twice cut once - works all the time ;) | 16:53 |
uRock | You have a voice! Speak now or forever hold your piece! | 17:06 |
Mindgamer | hi. i have trouble configuring ubuntu (9.10) to mount my RAID1 at boot correctly so that it is also shared out as a Samba share. somewhy permissions or something gets messed up so that when accessing the share over the network, i don not have adequate persmissions. can someone please point me in the right direction to solve this | 17:55 |
holstein | Mindgamer: can you access the windows box from the linux box? | 17:59 |
holstein | you want to pastebin your samba config file? | 17:59 |
holstein | are you sure the user/pass matches? | 17:59 |
Mindgamer | no.. actually i am sitting behing the windows box and remote to the linux box.. working over VNC. I do have physical access to the linux box but it has no keyboard nor screen | 18:00 |
holstein | i used a GUI once too | 18:01 |
holstein | samba share manager or something like that | 18:01 |
* holstein stopped using samba not too long ago | 18:01 | |
Mindgamer | samba conf i think: http://pastebin.com/jpY8c2xm | 18:05 |
Mindgamer | i think there shouldnt be a user/pass mismatch.. i think i disabled guest access.. and if there was a user mismatch i shouldnt have access at all? but i have read access | 18:05 |
holstein | cool | 18:06 |
holstein | thats something | 18:06 |
holstein | is this going to be outside your firewall? | 18:06 |
Mindgamer | yes, i have samba share manager or alike installed, but it does not detect my RAID1-LVM ... only the low level partitions | 18:06 |
holstein | if its just at your house | 18:06 |
Mindgamer | no - inside firewall | 18:06 |
holstein | you can try just easing up on the security | 18:06 |
holstein | until it works | 18:07 |
holstein | and i forget the resart command | 18:07 |
Mindgamer | true, but i have to make it work correctly in the end .. i want to make the share also accessible over sftp | 18:07 |
holstein | but you want to restart samba after chagnes | 18:07 |
Mindgamer | through a tunnel or something | 18:07 |
holstein | i dont see anything leaping off the page there in that .conf | 18:08 |
Mindgamer | ok, but i dont really know how to lax the security.. just try to enable guest access? | 18:08 |
holstein | Mindgamer: you could try that | 18:08 |
holstein | temporarily | 18:09 |
Mindgamer | holstein: should i use user/share/server authentication mode? | 18:11 |
Mindgamer | i do not know the difference | 18:11 |
Mindgamer | looking at samba server settings atm | 18:11 |
Chesamo | holstein: sftp isn't run through samba | 18:14 |
holstein | ?? | 18:14 |
Chesamo | I mean uh, | 18:14 |
Chesamo | Mindgamer | 18:14 |
holstein | Chesamo: i didnt mean to imply that | 18:14 |
holstein | Chesamo: OH | 18:15 |
Chesamo | Sorry, I misread the lines | 18:15 |
holstein | gotcha :) | 18:15 |
Mindgamer | Chesamo: yeah i know.. in any case i want to expose the box later to the internet, so i would like to get the security right | 18:15 |
holstein | Mindgamer: your reading /usr/share/doc/samba-doc/htmldocs/Samba3-HOWTO/ServerType.html ? | 18:15 |
holstein | to be honest, last time i did a samba config, it was for a printer, and there was a burnt sacrifice offered ;) | 18:16 |
Chesamo | Mindgamer: I use SFTP usually (much easier to set up than FTP imho) and clients like FileZilla can natively access the server without Samba | 18:16 |
Mindgamer | Chesamo: thanks, i will keep that in mind | 18:17 |
Mindgamer | i am going nuts here. When i add the share manually through gnome, everything works... after i restart.. the share is available from windows. however - through gnome it is no longer possible to modify share settings... i have no obvious way of stopping sharing files... | 18:45 |
holstein | why do you want to stop sharing? | 18:47 |
holstein | from the server side? | 18:47 |
Mindgamer | i want to rename the share.. and i want to understand how to set the share up so that only i can access it, not everyone in the workgroup... | 18:48 |
Mindgamer | and i want to see my current settings for a particular share.. i have no way of seeing them.. | 18:48 |
Mindgamer | sigh, perhaps i should just be happy it works for now and waith for ubuntu 15.04? | 18:50 |
Mindgamer | rebooting both systems to see if i then still have access.. thanks for the support holstein :) later | 18:52 |

holstein | good question | 22:09 |
Darkness_ | I don't suppose that there's an answer? | 22:09 |

kermiac | hey people :) I was just asked a weird question that hopefully somone knows the answer to. What dows the small keyboard and the human figure at the boot splash mean? -- http://is.gd/cqwqD | 23:22 |
Chesamo | The keyboard changes the keyboard layout | 23:22 |
Chesamo | and the human is the accessibility options (if you have them installed) | 23:23 |
kermiac | ok. that's what I was thinking, but I wasn't sure as it was on the bootsplash. Thanks Chesamo :) | 23:24 |
Chesamo | You're welcome. | 23:24 |
