[00:39] can a icon of the main menu change depending on the theme that is being used? [00:44] CtrlAlt: Yes [00:48] thx,;lookit's icon is always black [00:49] CtrlAlt: Typo? [00:50] only the comma :P [00:51] https://launchpad.net/lookit [00:52] CtrlAlt: Not everything changes. Usually things like GEdit, Synaptic, etc. change. Rarely do additional packages have extra icon sets. [00:54] so I should let it be? [00:55] i always had the "take screenshot" icon on the panel, and this is waaay better :) [00:55] CtrlAlt: Yes, unless you want to create your own icon. You can manually edit each Launcher and override its settings. [00:56] yeah i've already done that [00:56] it's ok :) [00:57] it has a bright ico which is used on the panel with dark themes, so i just changed it on the menu [00:57] *icon [02:21] hey duanedesign [02:21] duanedesign, sorry, let's take this to team === bgs100 is now known as bgs000 === compiledkernel is now known as Guest30196 [05:58] 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. [05:59] so it sees the network i'm guessing? [06:01] 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] hi [06:02] Chinta: strange. is there a password for the network? [06:04] I reset the router in case it was a router's password's issue. There shouldnt be any. [06:04] any here know how to fix some problems I'm having running dual monitors on a ATI graphic gard? [06:04] Card* [06:04] PureEvil: sorry, not something i'm familiar with, hopefully someone else can help you out [06:05] yeah nobody seems to have a answer lol [06:05] ATI dont even have drivers that work on 10.04 [06:06] 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] PureEvil: yah, that's the toughest part... [06:06] well the only other problem I'm having is with the game uplink lol [06:08] 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. [06:10] 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) [06:11] Chinta: there isn't really a simple one that i know of [06:12] Uhmmm, so you think I should disconnect and make sure that the "connect automatically" box is ticked? [06:15] well you can check that while on a wired connection [06:15] uhmmm... how? [06:15] right-click the network manager applet (the arrows if you're using the lucid default) and select "Edit Connections" [06:15] my labtop works wireless but not wired lol [06:16] I just gave up on that one [06:16] then find the Wireless sections and see if the network you want to connect to is listed [06:17] Oh, I see now, thanks. In fact, it is listed several times. Can that be a problem? [06:18] do other people near you have wifi routers lol [06:18] shouldn't be, but you might as well reduce it to one [06:19] Ok, I will delete all the entries of my router. And yes, there are neighbors around with routers. [06:20] I know in my apartment there are like 4 connections that say linksys lol [06:22] 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. [06:24] By the way, is it possible to connect to the same router twice, one using a cable and another one using the wireless? [06:25] simultaneously, not that i know of === PureEvil is now known as PureEvil_AFK [06:26] 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.

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? [15:28] I should clarify that this upgrade was just an interrim upgrade so that I can then upgrade to 10/04 lts [15:28] 10.04LTS [16:23] hello?

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? [16:26] 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 [16:27] Broadcom [16:29] http://paste.ubuntu.com/439941/ [16:35] NongA_TongE: have you been here - solved thread with lot's of positives http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1309760 [16:35] wireless is unfortunately not something I've had much dealing with [16:40] 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] cool - well I hope it helps you [16:40] it was actually my first result I think [16:42] NongA_TongE: if you've not heard of googlbuntu it's not bad as a search engine [16:45] it's googleubuntu :P [16:45] at least http://googleubuntu.com exists (: [16:49] Akos: yea :) always get that wrong - mostly because it was my second choice - my first choice appears to have died :( [16:49] :P [16:49] it's totally okay :P [16:49] oh good :) [16:50] hobgoblin: HELP [16:50] perhaps [16:50] what's up mohi2911 [16:51] i wrongly formatted one of my partitions and i lost everything in it :( [16:51] auch [16:51] is there any way to recover em?? :( [16:51] mohi2911: sudo unformat --please :P [16:52] mohi2911: stop accessing reboot with a livecd and hope you can get the info back with testdisk [16:52] all the time you are accessing it you can make the situation worse [16:52] ok [16:52] brb [16:53] measure twice cut once - works all the time ;) [17:06] You have a voice! Speak now or forever hold your piece! [17:55] 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 [17:59] Mindgamer: can you access the windows box from the linux box? [17:59] you want to pastebin your samba config file? [17:59] are you sure the user/pass matches? [18:00] 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 [18:01] i used a GUI once too [18:01] samba share manager or something like that [18:01] * holstein stopped using samba not too long ago [18:05] samba conf i think: http://pastebin.com/jpY8c2xm [18:05] 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 [18:06] cool [18:06] thats something [18:06] is this going to be outside your firewall? [18:06] yes, i have samba share manager or alike installed, but it does not detect my RAID1-LVM ... only the low level partitions [18:06] if its just at your house [18:06] no - inside firewall [18:06] you can try just easing up on the security [18:07] until it works [18:07] and i forget the resart command [18:07] true, but i have to make it work correctly in the end .. i want to make the share also accessible over sftp [18:07] but you want to restart samba after chagnes [18:07] through a tunnel or something [18:08] i dont see anything leaping off the page there in that .conf [18:08] ok, but i dont really know how to lax the security.. just try to enable guest access? [18:08] Mindgamer: you could try that [18:09] temporarily [18:11] holstein: should i use user/share/server authentication mode? [18:11] i do not know the difference [18:11] looking at samba server settings atm [18:14] holstein: sftp isn't run through samba [18:14] ?? [18:14] I mean uh, [18:14] Mindgamer [18:14] Chesamo: i didnt mean to imply that [18:15] Chesamo: OH [18:15] Sorry, I misread the lines [18:15] gotcha :) [18:15] 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] Mindgamer: your reading /usr/share/doc/samba-doc/htmldocs/Samba3-HOWTO/ServerType.html ? [18:16] to be honest, last time i did a samba config, it was for a printer, and there was a burnt sacrifice offered ;) [18:16] Mindgamer: I use SFTP usually (much easier to set up than FTP imho) and clients like FileZilla can natively access the server without Samba [18:17] Chesamo: thanks, i will keep that in mind [18:45] 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... [18:47] why do you want to stop sharing? [18:47] from the server side? [18:48] 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] and i want to see my current settings for a particular share.. i have no way of seeing them.. [18:50] sigh, perhaps i should just be happy it works for now and waith for ubuntu 15.04? [18:52] rebooting both systems to see if i then still have access.. thanks for the support holstein :) later === bgs000 is now known as bgs100 [22:07] Is there any way to get rid of the popup that occurs when you press the Sound keys on a keyboard?

What dows the small keyboard and the human figure at the boot splash mean? -- http://is.gd/cqwqD [23:22] The keyboard changes the keyboard layout [23:23] and the human is the accessibility options (if you have them installed) [23:24] ok. that's what I was thinking, but I wasn't sure as it was on the bootsplash. Thanks Chesamo :) [23:24] You're welcome. [23:25] stlsaint !
