| l1f3 | bye | 00:15 |
| dj_segfault | tony_: Thought so. HP decided to do something "very clever" in a lot of their machines and they installed a sound card with separate physical outputs for the headphones and the speakers. Most Linux users have the problem that the speakers don't turn off when headphones are plugged in, but I'll bet your problem is related. | 00:15 |

| djigit | Scunizi: i am understand you | 00:33 |
| Typos_King | brig_: maybe it works for your app, dunno, I've used both, I saw no difference whatsoever on ext4, only thing some folks here have noticed is when you do a 'fsck' which isn't an often thing either way, not that worth it IMO | 00:33 |
| dj_segfault | brig_: Are you saying you want to completely automate the process? You could modify the livecd to run the commands on bootup in /etc/rc,local. Using a USB stick might make that easier. | 00:33 |
| wildbat | wildbat, if you mounted already umount it or use -o remount | 00:33 |
| brig_ | typos: how about a 21.73% improvement in performance of your application? hows that??? | 00:33 |
| wildbat | |Koenigsegg|, if you mounted already umount it or use -o remount | 00:33 |

| brig_ | dj_segfault: ok... how does one "automate" the usb stick? | 00:34 |
| Typos_King | brig_: sounds good in writing, sadly I didn't notice it when I was using it, so can't really back that up | 00:34 |
| djigit | marenostrum: "#ubuntu-ru Cannot send to channel" | 00:34 |
| brig_ | typos_king: well I cant say for ANY other app then mine, but thats the one that makes me money | 00:35 |
| |Koenigsegg| | wildbat: This is the weird part.. I get on empty file with garbage characters in the file name. That's all I get on the "disc" after mounting | 00:35 |

| dj_segfault | brig_: Google found http://xercestech.com/custom-ubuntu-server-usb-stick-part2.geek | 00:36 |
| wildbat | |Koenigsegg|, hmmm either your CD/CD-ROM is corrupted or the CD is not in iso9660 format then | 00:36 |
| |Koenigsegg| | wildbat: I'd settle for that, except that I started the installation program from it ;-].. | 00:37 |
| brig_ | dj_segfault: no that puts a custom install on a stick... not issueing commands, let allone, doesent someone need to put the stuck in someplace??? | 00:37 |

| brig_ | typos-king: ???? what??? | 00:38 |

| Typos_King | hmw: you said your mouse was 'busy' and the keyboard and mouse were jammed :{, or so I understood | 01:22 |

| Typos_King | maybe is a usb port issue | 01:23 |
| DasEi | hmw: replugging ? | 01:23 |
| hmw | Typos_King: DasEI: http://paste.ubuntu.com/439636/ - that was all the syslog showed for the time frame. Replugging does not help, loggin in via VNC does not work (i see picture, but it takes no input) | 01:24 |
| kevin_ | DasEi I get the error permision not granted ,, it dosent even ask me for my root pass | 01:24 |
| hmw | i might have bad drivers for my USB controller... or whatever | 01:24 |

| Ricky_Rat5005 | Hi, I know about sudo, but can I use SU in Ubuntu? | 01:24 |
| Jayd3e | would a failing hard drive cause Ubuntu to run unusually slow? | 01:24 |
| Typos_King | ohhhh! is a VNC remote server session | 01:24 |
| Typos_King | hehe | 01:24 |
| sjm | ricky_rat5005: sudo su - | 01:25 |
| kevin_ | DasEi that waht i've typed | 01:25 |
| Typos_King | hmw: is a vnc deal, thought it was your kb there heeh | 01:25 |
| DasEi | kevin_: isn't your regular user in the sudoers file ? | 01:25 |
| Typos_King | !su | Ricky_Rat5005 | 01:25 |
| ubottu | Ricky_Rat5005: sudo is a command to run command-line programs with superuser privileges ("root") (also see !cli ) . Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE). If you're unable to execute commands with sudo see: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo | 01:25 |
| Ricky_Rat5005 | sjm: Thanks. | 01:26 |
| kevin_ | DasEi yes it is | 01:26 |
| hmw | Typos_King: i meant, i can login from outside with VNC, but it does also not take input. DasEi: when replugging my Keyboard, i see _nothing_ in syslog | 01:26 |
| kevin_ | but I have a currompted install of Xubuntu | 01:26 |
| hmw | can i somehow restart the USB system? | 01:26 |
| Typos_King | rgoytacaz: in *nix, you can usually just do a -> set; and that shows the environment variables | 01:27 |

| Jordan_U | MK13: The problem is that none of the windows software will work unless it's on a physical CD (I assume you're trying to boot a hiren's iso file on a filesystem rather than burned / dd'd to an actual drive). The DOS utilities will work, but you may have to load their floppy images directly with memdisk. | 01:28 |
| rgoytacaz | if it is, I don't know why it would not work. | 01:28 |
| rgoytacaz | Typos_King: I got a link in the panel as... /home/rgoytacaz/progs/rubymine/bin/./rubymine.sh | 01:29 |
| Rodensky | Typos_King: 10X :) | 01:29 |
| Typos_King | rgoytacaz: it doesn't? heheh, just type -> set | 01:29 |
| DasEi | working now ?, hmw | 01:29 |
| rgoytacaz | is there a reason for this to not work? | 01:29 |
| hmw | DasEi: no | 01:29 |
| MK13 | Jordan_U, I can load the individual components from it (konboot, dban) I really wanted the windows enviro it has on there... any clue about that then? | 01:29 |

| stitchlin | grr ...i cant be the only one | 01:31 |
| dragin_ | How do I make it so a user can only access files within their home directory? | 01:31 |
| stitchlin | 2 way...add the user to your group or chmod 775 ~/ | 01:32 |
| hmw | DasEi: any more ideas, or am I stuck now? | 01:32 |
| julio | at boot lucid stops loading hddtemp, at least the last visible line, display flashes a few times, how can i determine what's wrong | 01:32 |
| DasEi | hmw: does lsusb find the device ? | 01:32 |
| sjm | dragin_: how will they be able to use the computer if they don't have access to the programs? | 01:32 |
| Jordan_U | MK13: Windows can't loop mount its root from an iso file like linux can and it doesn't use BIOS calls to access drives like DOS, so memdisk won't fool it. It has to be on an actual partition / CD. There is no way around it (one of the downsides of proprietary software). | 01:32 |
| dragin_ | sjm, they will just in their home directory | 01:33 |
| dragin_ | kind of like a jail-shell | 01:33 |
| DasEi | hmw: also : dmesg | tail | 01:33 |
| dragin_ | but without actually using jail shell (is there an easier way?) | 01:33 |
| DasEi | brb | 01:33 |
| MK13 | Jordan_U, ok, figured that wouldn't work but thanks for the rational behind it :) | 01:33 |
| Jordan_U | dragin_: Try the guest session from the user switch applet. | 01:34 |
| Jordan_U | MK13: You're welcome. | 01:34 |

| DasEi | Jayd3e: not really, there might be deragmentation, but that shouldn't be real significant, much more often if a drive is full, can slow or even freeze the sys, df - h says ? | 01:41 |
| jotto | ok | 01:41 |
| hmw | DasEi: http://paste.ubuntu.com/439642/ | 01:41 |

| DasEi | hmw: looks fine so far | 01:42 |
| Jayd3e | so dumb | 01:42 |
| DasEi | Jayd3e: look at /var/log/syslog | 01:42 |
| BitEncrypt | when i minimize the window it doesnt go to the panel?? | 01:42 |
| Jordan_U | Jayd3e: Often if there are bad sectors the kernel will try to read the failed blocks multiple times to recover them, so that could make things slower (but I see no evidence that this is happening in your case) | 01:43 |
| Jayd3e | DasEi: k will do | 01:43 |
| Jayd3e | DasEi: if it boots this time | 01:43 |
| DasEi | Jayd3e: also can disable splash to see at boot up where it hangs | 01:43 |
| godricbrutus | brb | 01:43 |

| === Cain` is now known as Cain | ||
| sjm | Jayd3e: tbh? what's that? | 01:44 |
| DasEi | Jayd3e: by editing /etc/default/grub as root, then update grub, or by booting safemode (if its below init 1) | 01:44 |
| Jayd3e | sjm: to be honest. and DasEi: it is not even booting up now, I am stuck at a black screen with a single blinking cursor | 01:45 |
| DasEi | hmw: strange so, of course you tried the reboot already.. | 01:45 |
| xanphirex | anyone on backtrack | 01:46 |
| xanphirex | LoL | 01:46 |
| hmw | DasEI: no, i dont want to loose all my windows without properly closing. Of course, I have backup etc, but I need to find out, how to revive the input devices, because it happened before and I don't like dozens of undeleted temp files everywhere | 01:46 |
| sjm | Jayd3e: try a live cd. | 01:46 |
| Jayd3e | sjm: yeah | 01:46 |
| Jayd3e | sjm: will do | 01:46 |
| hmw | DasEi: switching to tty1 and back to tty7 will probably make X crash, like yesterday, thus restarting everything including input peripherals. | 01:46 |
| sjm | jayd3e: If it acts the same, then it's probably not the drive. otherwise... | 01:46 |
| Typos_King | Jayd3e: why not do a disk check and bad sectors check on it from a live-cd boot? | 01:47 |

| Jayd3e | Typos_King: how do I do a disc check and bad sectors check? | 01:48 |
| DasEi | hmw: it shouldn't do, but I don't know how vnc acts on that, if you use a shutdown commmand, windows should be closed properly, same to switch to single user mode | 01:48 |

| Thib_ | hi everyone, I just upgraded from 9.04 to 9.10 via the update manager, and everything is working well so far, except Firefox. All sessions begin with the "oops! could not restore your tabs" dialog, the add-ons dialog always tells me the en-GB language pack was just installed, mouse scrolling does not work, and (more importantly) I can't submit many forms (e.g. login pages) | 02:17 |

| Thib_ | I used Synaptic to completely uninstall then reinstall Firefox, and I also installed firefox-gnome-support and rebooted my machine, but it's not much better. | 02:17 |
| keebod | DasEi: Till yesterday i was using ubuntu lucid. today i just reinstalled with kubuntu lucid. but, few things were not working in kubuntu like subtitle, so i installed ubuntu-desktop package. it was after that all this apt problem happened | 02:17 |
| nick125 | myrl: PHP compiler? | 02:18 |
| Jayd3e | DasEi: just out of curiosity, why do you think there would be errors on a fresh install? I just installed this copy of 10.04 like an hour ago, why is it already failing? bad hard drive? | 02:18 |
| DasEi | Thib_: save your bookmarks, purge ff, re-install | 02:18 |

| actionparsnip | chalcedony: find out the command used in alacarte | 02:24 |
| DasEi | myrl: ask in #php, kompozer or such if you need a simple html editor | 02:25 |
| myrl | dasei not an html editor | 02:25 |
| Jayd3e | DasEi: it is probably around 3-4 years old, and it is a seagate | 02:25 |
| Angered_Kabar | That sounds new enough Jayd3e | 02:26 |
| DasEi | JayD3e: so in intense use after 4 years in the consumer-level there could be bad sectors, too | 02:26 |
| actionparsnip | Jayd3e: grab the ultimate boot cd, it has seatools on and you can check the drive | 02:26 |
| Jayd3e | ok thanks, still waiting on the e2fsck to finisht ho | 02:27 |
| Jayd3e | should it be taking this long? | 02:27 |
| edatlet | test | 02:27 |
| Angered_Kabar | fsck -tt took a LONG time for me | 02:27 |
| actionparsnip | Jayd3e: depends on size and spindle speed | 02:27 |
| DasEi | JayD3e: good tip on seatools, as it is specific for that controller | 02:27 |
| actionparsnip | DasEi: every PC should come with the ultimatebootcd imho | 02:28 |

| Angered_Kabar | depends | 02:35 |
| ericthehax | cause im invisible it seems | 02:35 |
| Angered_Kabar | older versions of xfce used fltk | 02:35 |

| actionparsnip | zelda: yes it will | 02:37 |
| zelda | 4 | 02:37 |
| acerimmer_ | sanjay: ok. assuming your installations were done right, this is a grub issue. the fix I suggested came directly from the link I'll send you. Sorry to say, I don't know what else to try | 02:37 |

| ubottu | sanjay, please see my private message | 02:37 |
| uLinux | actionparsnip: How can I rename the shortcut using sudo | 02:37 |
| DasEi | zelda: use server-kernel or pae then | 02:37 |
| Angered_Kabar | see if they mention something about drivers for your device | 02:37 |
| actionparsnip | zelda: you can use 32bit + pae with >3Gb ram | 02:37 |
| DasEi | !pae | 02:37 |
| ubottu | To use more than ~3.2GB RAM on a 32bit system you can install the PAE-enabled kernel. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EnablingPAE for more info | 02:37 |

| zelda | maybe even xubuntu | 02:38 |
| DasEi | keebod: erros is right, but didn't pastebinit install ? | 02:38 |
| ericthehax | My display is dim. It is not my backlight, I am using a desktop, and it happened after upgrading | 02:38 |
| zelda | for lighter wieght | 02:38 |
| Angered_Kabar | zelda, check out a distro that offers the Enlightenment desktop | 02:39 |
| DasEi | zelda: it is, as the kernel has native pae-support, why not 64 id the machine is capable ? | 02:39 |
| Guest35653 | ericthehax, try System > Preferences > Monitors | 02:39 |

| dbum | over ubuntu 9.10 | 02:40 |
| actionparsnip | afterdark: its losing its sight of lightness imho, LXDE is very light :) | 02:40 |
| DasEi | keebod: no, the list looks corect, as in doubt of "exotics", so .. | 02:40 |
| sanjay | acerimmer-:Sir, thanks for ur sincere effort | 02:40 |
| keebod | DasEi: exotics? | 02:40 |
| ericthehax | I've tried changing themes, looking through the preferences, nothing, | 02:41 |
| sanjay | acerimmer_: thank you so much | 02:41 |
| afterdark | Angered_Kabar: thanks, i like gnome anyway | 02:41 |
| DasEi | keebod: third party repos | 02:41 |
| JayD3e2 | DasEi: take a look at this, final output of my e2fsck, http://paste.ubuntu.com/439658/ | 02:41 |
| acerimmer_ | sanjay: http://www.dedoimedo.com/computers/grub-2.html#mozTocId722095 | 02:41 |
| keebod | DasEi: i have a doubt. is the last checkbox of the gui based sources window enabled by default? in mine till yesterday, it was enabled i guess | 02:41 |
| DasEi | JayD3e2: did, so : | 02:41 |
| ericthehax | I'm so confused :( | 02:41 |
| Guest35653 | ericthehax, just a sec | 02:41 |
| DasEi | JayD3e2: sudo fsck /dev/sda1 | 02:41 |
| zelda | thanks for the info though. Im going to run over to #ubuntu-server and ask my questions | 02:42 |
| Angered_Kabar | JayD3e2: http://smartmontools.sourceforge.net/badblockhowto.html this is a pretty good guide. If you can recover any files in bad sectors, run fsck -cc (two c's) on the unmounted partiton(s) and it will check for bad blocks and add them to the filesystem's badblock list | 02:42 |
| Jayd3e | DasEi: kk | 02:42 |
| DasEi | keebod: the sources won't cause this behaviour | 02:42 |
| keebod | DasEi: well, other than the subdomains of ubuntu.com, i have not enabled any repository? :-S | 02:42 |
| ksbalaji | on upgrading from 8.4 to 10.4, will I lose Google chrome and some other apps which I installed separately? I do not have a list of these separately installed apps - If I have to install these again, how to collect a list from my PC? | 02:42 |
| Guest51964 | hey who wants to help the noob with the broke pos lol | 02:42 |
| Guest35653 | ericthehax, all right try System > Preferences > Screensaver | 02:42 |
| Jayd3e | Angered_Kabar: kk ty | 02:42 |
| Guest35653 | ericthehax, then click on Power Management | 02:43 |
| DasEi | keebod: the basics are alright, your apt is currently broken | 02:43 |
| Guest35653 | ericthehax, u can adjust display brightness using the slider | 02:43 |
| keebod | DasEi: is there a way to reinstall it without reinstalling the whjole OS? | 02:43 |
| keebod | whole* | 02:43 |
| DasEi | keebod: next command will log you off, so close any open files/apps and first read on, before executing | 02:43 |
| ericthehax | I don't get it. There's no slider :( | 02:43 |
| keebod | alright :) | 02:43 |
| Jayd3e | DasEi: with output like tht, would you recommend getting a brand new drive? | 02:44 |
| ericthehax | What did I f up? | 02:44 |
| Guest35653 | ericthehax, are you in Power Management Preferences window | 02:44 |
| Jayd3e | DasEi: like do you believe tht do be the problem? | 02:44 |
| ericthehax | yes | 02:44 |
| Guest35653 | ericthehax, what tabs do you see in the window | 02:44 |
| ericthehax | On AC Power and General | 02:45 |
| Guest35653 | ericthehax, in the On AC Power tab, you should see Display, underneath that Set Display Brightness To | 02:45 |
| DasEi | keebod: sudo init 1 will bring you to single user mode where you can choose dpkg-repair broken packages, execute that, then reboot (root or netroot from the single gui, enter reboot) ((possibly on resume have to restart gdm, more complicated)) | 02:45 |
| chalcedony | what's the command to search my computer for a file? | 02:45 |
| Krypto | O.o | 02:45 |
| actionparsnip | chalcedony: sudo find / -iname "thing" | 02:46 |
| chalcedony | in the core system | 02:46 |
| === Krypto is now known as `Reaper | ||
| chalcedony | k | 02:46 |
| ericthehax | In Display, it only has Put display to sleep when inactive for: | 02:46 |
| chalcedony | ty | 02:46 |
| Jayd3e | DasEi: think I should get a new drive? | 02:46 |
| actionparsnip | chalcedony: change thing for what you need, keep the "s in | 02:46 |
| chalcedony | right | 02:46 |
| DasEi | JayD3e: no, filesystem and hardware-sectors are two different things | 02:46 |
| Guest51964 | sooo i'm trying to boot ubuntu live, the loading screen comes up for a few min, the the screen goes to standby (no signal). any takers? | 02:46 |
| Guest35653 | ericthehax, i c. are you on a laptop / desktop | 02:46 |
| actionparsnip | Guest51964: use failsafe vga bootoption | 02:46 |
| ericthehax | desktop | 02:46 |
| zelda | LXDE is avail for Ubuntu? | 02:47 |
| uLinux | actionparsnip: I found an easy way to edit the shortcut... sudo nautilus P | 02:47 |
| DasEi | JayD3e: first try to repair the fs, then examine the disk by seatools and/or smartmontools | 02:47 |
| Guest35653 | ericthehax, maybe you could try setting the brightness manually on your monitor? | 02:47 |
| keebod | DasEi: "dpkg-repair" is the command? or "dpkg-repair broken packages"? | 02:47 |
| kjbbb | whats up with the weirdo transmission-daemon config file? | 02:47 |
| kjbbb | it reads it from /var/lib/transmission-daemon | 02:47 |
| Jayd3e | DasEi: why are file system errors being consistently created tho, I have reinstalled linux around 5 times now on my server computer, and it is always either extremely slow or it doesn't start at all | 02:47 |
| kjbbb | and runs under debian-transmission | 02:47 |
| ericthehax | The brightness is set, and the OSD is a lot brighter than the Ubuntu screen | 02:47 |
| kjbbb | looks shoddily packaged. should i file it as a bug? | 02:47 |
| DasEi | keebod: in single user mode you get to a simple gui where you can choose this item | 02:47 |
| ksbalaji | how to retain separately installed apps when ugrading to 10.04? ( is it automatic?) | 02:47 |
| kjbbb | it also runs under user debian-transmission, lol | 02:48 |
| Guest51964 | failsafe vga option? | 02:48 |
| actionparsnip | uLinux: do NOT run nautilus with sudo | 02:48 |
| === Honoo is now known as CodenameStrike | ||
| uLinux | why not? just once | 02:48 |
| actionparsnip | uLinux: use gksudo, sudo will break file ownerships and can make your system not boot | 02:48 |
| Angered_Kabar | Guest51964 check out the options on the first boot screen. It will say stuff like F3 for xxx F5 for xxx, etc | 02:48 |
| ericthehax | Is there a file where I can set the brightness Ubuntu outputs? | 02:49 |
| actionparsnip | uLinux: sudo doesn't setup the environment for gui apps, gksu is to be used (or gksudo) | 02:49 |
| uLinux | I already did it | 02:49 |
| DasEi | JayD3e: again, there ca be various causes for a corrupt fs, down to a hardware failure, /var/log/messages and syslog in same dir could tell more, also consider installing smart-notifier, if doubt of hd | 02:49 |
| uLinux | :\ | 02:49 |
| ericthehax | You know, like a configuration file? | 02:49 |
| actionparsnip | uLinux: close it and run it properly | 02:49 |
| ksbalaji | I've some 3rd party repos. Do I retain them on upgrading to 10.4? | 02:49 |
| DasEi | !info smart-notifier | JayD3e | 02:49 |
| ubottu | JayD3e: smart-notifier (source: smart-notifier): graphical hard disk health status notifier. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.28-2ubuntu1 (lucid), package size 11 kB, installed size 184 kB | 02:49 |
| uLinux | actionparsnip: i opened with sudo and rename the shortcut then closed.. | 02:50 |
| Jayd3e | DasEi: k ty | 02:50 |
| Angered_Kabar | kjbbb, why do you think it's a bug? | 02:50 |
| Guest51964 | at the first screen now, but see no vga option | 02:50 |
| Talon_ | If i removed polkit-1, would I stop getting the password nags, or would I just be completely restricted? Is polkit-1 really necessary? | 02:50 |
| kjbbb | Angered_Kabar: well, config is usually in /etc/. it confused me for a while until i figured out what was going wrong. it's not standard. | 02:50 |
| chalcedony | find: `a2psrc': No such file or directory | 02:50 |
| chalcedony | llhull@Marcus:~$ | 02:50 |
| DasEi | keebod: 1)sudo init 1 2) dpkg... 3)enter 4) netroot or root 5)reboot 6) report back here | 02:51 |
| Guest51964 | F1 for help, 2-language, 3-keymap,4-modes, 5-access., F6-other options | 02:51 |
| Angered_Kabar | configs under /var for daemons are not that unusual | 02:51 |
| kjbbb | Angered_Kabar: and to make it more confusing, there is a config file in /etc/transmission-daemon, which isn't even read. | 02:51 |
| xota | anybody knows how can I set my cursor X,Y from a console? | 02:51 |
| Guest35653 | ericthehax, i found a page that might help | 02:51 |
| actionparsnip | uLinux: in future use: gksudo nautilus you will not break your files then | 02:51 |
| Guest35653 | ericthehax, check your pm for the link | 02:51 |
| kjbbb | Angered_Kabar: Not for many of them that I've seen, but okay. I'll keep that in mind. Also, for this deamon, you need to use "sudo service transmission-daemon reload", or else it will overwrite your config file every time. You can't just start/stop it. | 02:52 |
| uLinux | actionparsnip: yeah I knew gksudo was for GUI but sometimes I forgot or Im lazy to use it :\ | 02:52 |
| uLinux | better be careful then | 02:52 |
| chalcedony | actionparsnip, i don't understand how System > Preferences > Default Printer can be broken | 02:53 |
| ericthehax | what pm? none came up | 02:53 |
| rne | Hello everyone. | 02:53 |
| actionparsnip | uLinux: careful is good, you can actually use gksudo for both ;) | 02:53 |
| DasEi | rne: hi da | 02:53 |
| acerimmer_ | !hi|rne | 02:53 |
| ubottu | rne: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines . Enjoy your stay! | 02:53 |
| actionparsnip | chalcedony: log a bug | 02:53 |
| kjbbb | Angered_Kabar: Anyway, it was a bit annoying to set up. I don't even use ubuntu regularly, but where can I file a bug for this package? | 02:53 |
| Guest35653 | http://www.novell.com/support/search.do?cmd=displayKC&docType=kc&externalId=7004105&sliceId=1&docTypeID=DT_TID_1_1 | 02:53 |
| ericthehax | thx | 02:53 |
| Angered_Kabar | X sort of ignores xorg.conf for a lot of things nowadays.... Maybe that's changed in the last 6 months though | 02:54 |
| actionparsnip | chalcedony: its just a software like all the rest, you could try reinstalling the package which gives it | 02:54 |
| actionparsnip | Angered_Kabar: if the config is there it will be used, if no config is thre for certain things then UDEV will be used | 02:55 |
| DasEi | Angered_Kabar: xorg.conf is empty by default since 9.04, but is still read at gdm starting so can be used | 02:55 |
| Angered_Kabar | I've had other distros ignore input device sections and use the hal .fdi's | 02:56 |
| Angered_Kabar | guess ymmv | 02:57 |
| DasEi | Angered_Kabar: hal is still common in many distros, upstart is doing it now | 02:57 |
| DasEi | !hal | 02:58 |
| ubottu | Hal is in the process of being depreciated. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Halsectomy and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hardware_abstraction_layer for more info. | 02:58 |
| uLinux | Now after closing Nautilus the terminal is still "busy" can I just close it or is there a safer way? | 02:58 |
| Angered_Kabar | thank god | 02:58 |
| Angered_Kabar | how is it still busy? | 02:58 |
| uLinux | because I ran gksudo nautilus | 02:58 |
| DasEi | Angered_Kabar: it isn't any more by default | 02:58 |
| uLinux | now if I close it it asks for confirmation | 02:59 |
| Angered_Kabar | what's it say? | 02:59 |
| uLinux | "there is still a process running in this terminal" | 02:59 |
| Talon_ | uLinux: just press ctrl+c | 02:59 |
| ericthehax | wait, before I mess with stuff, this was actually a clean install to fix one that I couldn't restore. I used the disk I already burned, then I upgraded. I've yet to get the nvidia driver. COULD THAT BE IT? *excited* | 02:59 |
| Guest35653 | xo | 02:59 |
| Angered_Kabar | that ^C | 02:59 |
| uLinux | done | 02:59 |
| uLinux | nice tip | 03:00 |
| Talon_ | not sure why it hangs but my terminal did the same thing, and ctrl+c worked | 03:00 |
| ericthehax | course id have to install it anyway, I dont have an xorg.conf for some odd reason | 03:00 |
| Angered_Kabar | yeah, ctl c is the terminate command | 03:00 |
| ericthehax | FAIL :D | 03:00 |
| IdleOne | Talon_: uLinux if you use gksudo nautilus & that will allow you to close the terminal window and not close nautilus | 03:00 |
| chalcedony | actionparsnip, hmmm i bet with the updates i did .. i didn't reboot for 3 months | 03:00 |
| kjbbb | Where can I file a package specific bug for ubuntu? | 03:01 |
| DasEi | !who | Angered_Kabar, ;-) | 03:01 |
| Guest51964 | bah...no matter what i try, my screen goes to standby after loading and the only way i can see anything is by hitting ctrl-alt-F6 to get to the shell. | 03:01 |
| ubottu | Angered_Kabar, ;-): 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 :) | 03:01 |
| Guest35653 | good idea | 03:01 |
| actionparsnip | chalcedony: linux is designed for uptime, unlike windows | 03:01 |
| acerimmer_ | !bug|kjbbb | 03:01 |

| chalcedony | actionparsnip, i know.. used to go years or between major power failures on debian | 03:01 |
| kjbbb | ubottu: thanks. | 03:01 |
| chalcedony | lol | 03:01 |
| ubottu | You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-) | 03:01 |
| kjbbb | haahha | 03:02 |
| toolbear | say, whenever i type in my "sudo password", i get to use sudo for a few more minutes without typing in my password again. how can i change the length of time for which it will not ask me for the password? | 03:02 |
| chalcedony | :) | 03:02 |
| kr3w | is there any panel out there that emulates window 7's start bar, where quick launch and current open programs are integrated? | 03:02 |
| chalcedony | toolbear, why not use sudo -i until you are happy? | 03:02 |
| kjbbb | kr3w: dockbarx | 03:02 |
| kjbbb | kr3w: gnome-panel with dockbarx | 03:02 |
| * kr3w googles fiendishly | 03:03 | |
| ericthehax | actionparsnip: "Your CPU has gone through one of its billions of cycles it does in a second. You must reboot for it to take effect." I used resource hacker to change that dialog, can't remember which exe I edited, it was long ago | 03:03 |
| chalcedony | hehe | 03:03 |
| toolbear | chalcedony: so that i don't have to type it in if i'm, e.g. opening synaptic in gnome... | 03:04 |
| zelda | can ntfs read ext3 or ext4? | 03:04 |
| Guest51964 | anyone else have display problems when trying to load ubntu live? | 03:04 |
| Talon_ | toolbear: are you a member of admin? What I did was "sudo visudo" and the last line is "%admin ALL=(ALL) ALL" and I changed it to "%admin ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL" and i no longer get asked for a password for sudo, but the time duration i'm not sure of. | 03:04 |
| ericthehax | zelda, what do you mean? | 03:04 |
| kr3w | okay i cannot figure out how to install | 03:05 |
| ericthehax | By ntfs do you mean Windows? | 03:05 |
| zelda | lets say I want to create a network drive in the ext3-4, however say someone using ntfs can read and write it? | 03:05 |
| toolbear | Talon_: yeah, i could do that, but it seems as though that would be the exact same thing as logging in as root | 03:05 |
| ericthehax | Do you mean Windows? | 03:05 |
| zelda | yeah thats what NTFS is | 03:05 |
| kjbbb | kr3w: yeah, install the package (probably a ppa for it). Right click on your gnome-panel, add dockbarx. | 03:05 |
| zelda | for xp ^ | 03:05 |
| Chaorain | zelda: I think you mean can Windows. Check out XFS Explorer | 03:06 |
| Guest51964 | sigh... | 03:06 |
| kr3w | kjbbb: the PPA part is where im like wha? | 03:06 |
| DasEi | talon: man sudoers and http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=116697#post116697 | 03:06 |
| Chaorain | zelda: no NTFS is a file system | 03:06 |
| Guest51964 | i just wanna get to a gui past the install menu | 03:06 |
| Guest51964 | lol | 03:06 |
| ericthehax | NTFS is also for Linux if you know what you're doing. | 03:06 |
| Angered_Kabar | zelda, device file systems are transparent over network file systems | 03:06 |
| Evil_Otto | ON startup I'm getting error: no suitable mode found and then no X | 03:06 |
| actionparsnip | ericthehax: it'd be sweet if linux could run a swapping kernel, so that it can step in while a kernel swap takes place, more uptime as no need to reboot between kernel upgrades :) | 03:06 |
| Evil_Otto | Is there a file I can edit to fix this? | 03:07 |
| zelda | well you create it using NFS right? | 03:07 |
| Talon_ | toolbear: if you don't want to allow the admin group to use sudo with no password, you can do it by your account, at the last line add "yourusername ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL" | 03:07 |
| Angered_Kabar | actionparsnip, it does that | 03:07 |
| acerimmer_ | Guest51964: try xubuntu - lower machine specs required. Or install from the alternate iso | 03:07 |
| zelda | can say windows or linux machines could rw to it? | 03:07 |
| Jordan_U | actionparsnip: That doesn't soud feasable, there is ksplice though. | 03:07 |
| kjbbb | kr3w: just add it to your sources. https://launchpad.net/~dockbar-main/+archive/ppa | 03:07 |
| Angered_Kabar | actionparsnip, I think you need the proper kernel configuration and a tool or so, but I know you can boot another kernel without having to reboot | 03:07 |
| kjbbb | kr3w: then apt-get install dockbarx | 03:08 |
| toolbear | Talon_: i just want to change the length of time over which i'm not asked for a sudo password. that is, i'd like to extend it, from say 3 minutes, to 15 minutes, or something | 03:08 |
| greenfish | is there a apt source containing kernel 2.6.34 for lucid? | 03:08 |
| ericthehax | actionparsnip: Yes it would. I would never reboot again. Do you know any OS that can swap kernels while running? | 03:08 |
| kjbbb | kr3w: they give you the command to add it to your sources there. | 03:08 |
| Jordan_U | actionparsnip: For something like that to work I think you'd need collaboration with userland (i.e. use server software designed to be moved between machines to move between kernels) | 03:08 |
| kr3w | k i got it installed | 03:08 |
| acerimmer_ | toolbear: sudo -i | 03:08 |
| DasEi | toolbear: oh, I nick - missed with talon : | 03:08 |
| neal__ | toolbear, why not just use a root terminal then | 03:08 |
| Angered_Kabar | ericthehax: minix 3 | 03:08 |
| Chaorain | I'm haveing a problem where my comp doesn't shut down. It goes back to the logon screen whenever I try | 03:08 |
| DasEi | toolbear: man sudoers and http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=116697#post116697 | 03:08 |
| actionparsnip | ericthehax: unfortunately not but it's definately the future | 03:08 |
| greenfish | actionparsnip: its not the future | 03:09 |
| toolbear | neal__: because i might be in X, and don't want to type the password there either | 03:09 |
| IdleOne | toolbear: the default is 15 minutes iirc | 03:09 |
| greenfish | actionparsnip: monolithic systems arent the future | 03:09 |
| toolbear | acerimmer: doesn't that only work within a terminal? | 03:09 |
| kjbbb | kr3w: cool. there's some nice themes for it on gnome-look.org. Check out dockbarx sunny theme | 03:09 |
| Evil_Otto | I've tried restarting gdm but it kind of flips out.. has me bouncing back between what looks like two virtual consoles, then eventually I end up back at a command line | 03:09 |
| actionparsnip | greenfish: whatever kernel it is as long as a new one can be used without needing a reboot its the future to me, whatever kernel model is used | 03:10 |
| kjbbb | kr3w: it looks and behaves pretty closely to win7 | 03:10 |
| ericthehax | I once had a problem where I would get an X issue and then I couldn't enter my credentials in the tty. That SUCKED! Then I came across this. | 03:10 |
| kr3w | i can't figure out how to enable it | 03:10 |
| Angered_Kabar | greenfish: microkernels are cool, sure, but they have performance issues | 03:10 |
| toolbear | idleone: well, on my system it's at least a few minutes. it seems as though, since such a time delay exists, if it isn't a bug, then there must be some sort of control for it | 03:10 |
| acerimmer_ | toolbear: sorry i was away. u mean the sudo -i command? yes that's terminal and must be run as root user | 03:10 |
| lyrae | Does anyone run open arena? How can i make the window lose focus? once i start the game, i cant switch back to desktop | 03:10 |
| kjbbb | kr3w: right click gnome-panel, add to panel -> dockbarx | 03:10 |
| DasEi | greenfish: not in apt, but can install it from kernel.org | 03:10 |
| ericthehax | This screen issue I'm gonna fix when the driver finishes downloading | 03:10 |
| greenfish | Angered_Kabar: actionparsnip: just shift services from the old linux instance to a new one. done. | 03:10 |
| greenfish | ksplice helps mitigate the need for this, but its still essential | 03:10 |
| actionparsnip | greenfish: i guess | 03:11 |
| DasEi | greenfish: though ppa maybe, look on launchpad | 03:11 |
| toolbear | acerimmer_: well, i just want to configure my system so that, whether in the terminal or in gnome, if i type in my password, i don't get asked for my password again for at least 15 minutes | 03:11 |
| kr3w | just got it | 03:11 |
| greenfish | DasEi: there are ddebs for linux-image-debug for 2.6.34 on http://ddebs.ubuntu.com/pool/main/l/linux/ so i assume its out there somewhere | 03:11 |
| ericthehax | What are the dependencies of the latest NVIDIA driver? I keep forgetting cause I don't normally have to re-do my entire installation | 03:11 |
| brianlions | toolbear, set the value of `timestamp_timeout' in sudoers | 03:11 |
| hectort | hey | 03:12 |
| h00k | ericthehax: is using Jockey an option? | 03:12 |
| acerimmer_ | toolbear: sudo -i elevates your session temporarily. when you terminate it your login drops back to normal | 03:12 |
| ericthehax | Jockey? | 03:12 |

| Jordan_U | ericthehax: System > Administation > Hardware Drivers | 03:12 |
| Angered_Kabar | I checked out a so-called exo-kernel. It's like a flat microkernel server library running on a simple microkernel. You could have one library for linux, one for openbsd, and they would both run on the same machine at the same time without virtualization | 03:13 |
| DasEi | greenfish: you can always have the latest kernel from kernel.org and also build a deb from them, launchpad I think has ppas | 03:13 |
| ericthehax | Wtf (Remember: F in an acronym can technically be any word that starts with F)? does it have the latest, I mean THE latest, driver? | 03:13 |
| wranger09 | has anyone herd of aefdisk and if so can someone direct me to the website | 03:13 |
| greenfish | DasEi: yeah. i was trying to avoid either building on this hardware or having to set up a build host for it, but i'm not sure if i have any options... quite frankly i don't understand how lucid doesnt have debug kernels available... makes it much less useful as a server platform | 03:14 |
| ryantzor | How do i make my network applet on my tray appear again? | 03:14 |
| ericthehax | I used it before and some stuff said my driver was outdated | 03:14 |
| brianlions | acerimmer_, i think "sudo -v" is much better than "sudo -i" | 03:14 |
| xangua | ryantzor: add the notification area | 03:14 |
| greenfish | DasEi: since my production machines won't be running a custom built kernel, its difficult to justify a fresh build for debugging | 03:15 |
| Angered_Kabar | ryantzor, right click on the bar and look through "add to panel" | 03:15 |
| ryantzor | i checked the add panel and it's not there | 03:15 |
| ericthehax | brb | 03:15 |
| DasEi | greenfish: i gify : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-ppa/+archive/ppa | 03:15 |
| ryantzor | angered_kabar i tried but i couldn't find the network one | 03:15 |
| acerimmer_ | brianlions: whatever works for the user. Personally, I just sudo each command for a little insurance. Of course, i AM trying to fix things at 0300 and so operator/headspace errors abound | 03:15 |
| ryantzor | found it:) | 03:16 |
| Talon_ | ryantzor: its part of "Notification Area" there is no Network Manager applet | 03:16 |

| wranger09 | anyone going to help me"? | 03:17 |
| * DasEi wonders where keebod got lost | 03:17 | |
| ryantzor | talon i think i messed something up | 03:17 |
| Jordan_U | greenfish: I was pretty sure that the default kernel is compiled with debug info. | 03:17 |
| TDJACR | How would I block a computer from initiating any connections with another on the same network (192.168.0.0/24) but allow other computers on that network to SSH into it | 03:17 |
| DasEi | !details | wranger09 | 03:17 |
| ubottu | wranger09: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." | 03:17 |
| greenfish | Jordan_U: its a vmlinuz. how could it be? | 03:17 |
| ryantzor | talon, i went to my start up programs and changed the command line for the start up of ndswrapper | 03:17 |
| greenfish | DasEi: let me take a look. thanks | 03:17 |
| Evil_Otto | ... etiquette question in here, how long should I wait before I ask a question again? | 03:18 |
| Jordan_U | greenfish: Maybe it's just the kernel modules. | 03:18 |
| ryantzor | Can anyone help me ? i changed the command line for my start up ndiswrapper | 03:18 |
| wranger09 | i am running ubuntu and wish to switch to xp pro but i need to use aef disk but cant boot any sugestions? | 03:18 |
| Talon_ | ryantzor: so you have the notification area, but no network manager? it should be there. I doubt you need the ndiswrapper for anything other than wireless. | 03:19 |
| Teekin | Hey, I have a problem when using MySQL in any command-line (Gnome, Ubuntu 9.10): Ctrl-W takes out the whole line instead of just the last word. | 03:19 |
| DasEi | greenfish: what's the actual problem you're dealing with ? | 03:19 |
| Teekin | Anyone know what's up with that? | 03:19 |
| Kentrel | The old version of Solfege allowed me to maximize the window, but the new version doesn 't. How do I force a program to use a bigger sized window? | 03:19 |
| ryantzor | talon, I know and the problem is i cannot connect to the wireless because i changed that command | 03:19 |
| wranger09 | and how do u use the cd burner program in ubuntu? | 03:19 |
| ryantzor | Talon, can you check your default command for me? | 03:19 |
| Talon_ | ryantzor: my wireless card had drivers, I don't use ndiswrapper | 03:19 |

Please note that some people find it rude to be sent a PM without being asked for permission to do so first. | 03:20 |
| ryantzor | talon, maybe mine did too erg... well this sucks cause my wireless was working about 5 minutes ago | 03:20 |

| xangua | ryantzor: then try laucnhng: nm-applet | 03:21 |
| wranger09 | i need to know about aefdisk any one know anything about it | 03:21 |
| greenfish | sources are irrelevant, i need the build with -g | 03:21 |
| greenfish | and -DDEBUG and whatever else the ubuntu team uses during kenrel builds | 03:21 |
| Talon_ | ryantzor: how did you modify the line? did you use vi, or pico? or hopefully gedit? gedit usually makes " filename~ " which is a backup of the file before your new modifications | 03:21 |
| DasEi | wranger09: no, what is aefdisk? | 03:22 |
| cpatrick08 | i was wondering what people think of Linux mint 9 | 03:22 |

| wranger09 | yes | 03:24 |
| greenfish | DasEi: no worries... i understand this channel is largely for desktop and basic server support. were this just about any other distro i'd be fine on my own, but recent changes in ubuntu have prompted me to evaluate it again as a server platform | 03:24 |
| DasEi | wranger09: so you want a dualboot or virtualisation ? | 03:24 |
| cpatrick08 | wranger09, does your cd rom drive work | 03:24 |
| wranger09 | dual boot | 03:24 |
| wranger09 | yes it does | 03:24 |

| acerimmer_ | wranger09: you need XP for daily use or just sometimes? For what use? | 03:25 |
| Angered_Kabar | linux live CDs typically have gparted, a pretty good tool that supports partition and filesystem resizing | 03:25 |
| Loshki | greenfish: I would think that most people who were serious about their servers would run centos... | 03:26 |
| DasEi | wranger09: basic steps is re-size space of ubu ( I assume one hd only), then install xp, then re-install grub bootloader;; to be safer do a copy of current mbr | 03:26 |
| wranger09 | i need it for daily use | 03:26 |

| dereks | s | 03:26 |
| wranger09 | how do i grt back my vista partition so i can del it\ | 03:27 |
| Talon_ | wranger09: if you have XP installed first, make sure you boot it and defragment the drive BEFORE you allow ubuntu to resize your partition! I had windows fail to boot once because I didn't do that, so fragmented cells were outside the scope of the partition after linux resized it.. | 03:27 |
| DasEi | wranger09: by gparted | 03:28 |
| wranger09 | vista is still on or in my bios | 03:28 |
| Loshki | greenfish: no seriously, I always supposed ubuntu server was for light, non-mission critical service. I'm not sure they've ever claimed it's industrial strength... | 03:28 |
| cpatrick08 | you can install windows xp then use wubi to install ubuntu like a program to windows xp | 03:28 |
| wranger09 | how can i get rid of it | 03:28 |
| DasEi | wranger09: on your hd you wanteed to say | 03:28 |

| Angered_Kabar | orangeglo, sorry, "file asussetup.exe" | 03:36 |
| rzx237 | RyR88: do you have artwiz-cursor installed? it will override cursor theme in ubuntu | 03:37 |
| Teekin | RyR88, in a shell such as Bash (and most others), it backspaces to the beginning of the last word typed. | 03:37 |
| Teekin | So if you write "hello there someone", and you do Ctrl-W, what normally happens is that "someone" is deleted. | 03:37 |
| RyR88 | rzx237, no where can I get that? apt-get? | 03:37 |

| Gnea | hiexpo: okay, 'loop' means absolutely nothing in networking-lingo | 04:27 |

| Gnea | hiexpo: do you want to put the eth on as a private lan and have the mobile broadband share the internet connection with it? | 04:27 |
| Jayd3e | newgeek: it should be the same, an ftp client is just a front-end for the commands | 04:28 |
| affert | is there a way to tell if it is actually doing something? | 04:28 |

| Talon_ | newgeek: I think command line ftp doesn't use PASV like filezilla, so you yourself open a port, ftp server connects to you and dumps a file, where as the other way around using PASV ftp server opens a port you connect to it and the files dumped. | 04:28 |

| edbian | !ask | Claudiomf1 | 04:34 |
| ubottu | Claudiomf1: 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. :-) | 04:34 |
| Gnea | hiexpo: how can you misunderstand simple, straight-forward english? alright, are you connecting other computers to the router? | 04:34 |
| Guest51964 | seems ubuntu versionspast 8.04 arent compatable with the intel 865gv chipset/onboard graphics... :( | 04:35 |
| hiexpo | Gnea, no | 04:35 |

| BitEncrypt | window does not minimize to panel....10.04 LTS | 04:37 |
| affert | hi guys. I'm trying to figure out how to get around this: When I try to update, it freezes up trying to update mysql-server-5.1 | 04:37 |
| FireCrotch | I'm trying to do a netinstall of 10.04 using a PXE server, and I just get a black screen when it tries to boot from the PXE server. Any ideas, anybody? | 04:37 |
| Gnea | hiexpo: how many ethernet ports are on it? | 04:37 |
| affert | i don't currently use mysql-server, so i'd be ok removing it | 04:37 |
| hiexpo | Gnea, 4 | 04:37 |
| triNa | How can I empty my battery very quickly for eg by making high cpu usage | 04:37 |
| douglas | hey my laptop is overheating and freezing a lot | 04:37 |
| Claudiomf1 | Someone speaks portuguese here? | 04:37 |
| Gnea | hiexpo: how many ethernet ports on your computer? | 04:37 |
| douglas | xD overheating tnd then freezing oxymoron | 04:38 |
| affert | but when i try sudo apt-get remove mysql-server-5.1 it tells me i need to reinstall it | 04:38 |
| hiexpo | Gnea, 1 | 04:38 |
| douglas | can someone help me? | 04:38 |
| dmglouis | does anybody have a knowledge of burg? the graphical boot loader instead of grub. My problem is that it shows up fine, but when I select an OS, the graphics go a little wonky (lots of green patches appear). Also, the green patches stay during boot up of ubuntu and are kind of an eyesore. | 04:38 |
| b33r_ | affert, what error are you getting? | 04:38 |
| Gnea | hiexpo: then you have a problem. you're going to need a second ethernet port on your computer (maybe via usb?) in order to loop-back to the router in order to control the upgrade process. | 04:38 |
| Guest51964 | lil help... | 04:38 |
| sailerboy | dmglouis, never heard of it, but it sounds like a graphics problem, not a bootloader problem | 04:38 |
| emeitner | douglas: problem is overheating, freezing is probably just a symptom. Does the fan work? Fan and/or fan ducts filled with dust? | 04:39 |
| affert | here's the error: http://paste.ubuntu.com/439700/ | 04:39 |
| alejandro | how can i read .txt files through the terminal? | 04:39 |
| sailerboy | when you use grub, is it the same effect? | 04:39 |
| Gnea | alejandro: cat file.txt | 04:39 |
| douglas | i just cleaned it a few weeks ago | 04:39 |
| Gnea | alejandro: or: less file.txt (use 'q' to quit) | 04:39 |
| hiexpo | Gnea, ok my broadband is on a usb port | 04:39 |
| dmglouis | sailerboy: no, actually if I change the burg theme to a non graphical one, it works fine | 04:39 |
| sailerboy | douglas, in your mind, what is cleaning | 04:39 |
| Gnea | hiexpo: how many usb ports do you have? | 04:39 |
| sailerboy | dmglouis, why not just use nongraphical mode? | 04:39 |
| alejandro | Gnea: w/ ubuntu 10.04? | 04:40 |
| hiexpo | Gnea, lots | 04:40 |
| douglas | opening up the laptop cover with a cue tip and | 04:40 |
| Gnea | hiexpo: then it shouldn't be a problem to plug in another device | 04:40 |
| affert | douglas: depending on why it's overheating, just propping the bottom up, and pointing a fan (external box fan) at it can make a big difference | 04:40 |
| douglas | wiping off the fan and heat sink | 04:40 |
| gmonnie | hate to be a bother, but could really use some help here, upgraded from 9.10 to 10.04 LTS and now my touchpad isnt working. Can ANYONE help? | 04:40 |
| douglas | oh i just realised | 04:40 |
| douglas | one of the fans are not spinning | 04:40 |
| affert | gmonnie: sorry, i don't know anything about touchpad settings :-/ | 04:40 |
| cr45h-0v3r1d3 | hmmmm | 04:41 |
| dmglouis | sailerboy: its not a huge problem I know, but after seeing this video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zBCR0jVzMFs), I wanted to have that on my computer | 04:41 |
| hiexpo | Gnea, i know but when i connect the eth port it kills my usb broadband connection | 04:41 |
| emeitner | To any folks out there who have multi-user desktop systems: please see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdm/+bug/40011 and add a confirmation to this bug if it affects you. This one is pretty serious yet does not get attention because most Ubuntu systems are single-user machines. Thanks. | 04:41 |
| |corpse| | is it possible to install ubuntu from shell? | 04:41 |
| Gnea | hiexpo: basically, you have to plug your router's WAN port into one of your computer's ethernet ports, then enable forwarding to forward the connection via the mobile broadband card. Then, you need to connect ethernet from the usb-ethernet device to one of the LAN ports on the router in order to access the web interface in order to update the firmware via the internet | 04:41 |
| Claudiomf1 | someone can help to configure the som of my laptop is1525 of toshiba? | 04:41 |
| sailerboy | dmglouis, did you check the bugtracker? | 04:41 |
| b33r_ | affert, try sudo apt-get install -f | 04:42 |
| gmonnie | affert: thanks anyways | 04:42 |
| Gnea | hiexpo: are you using a usb hub or plugging directly into the usb ports on the computer? | 04:42 |
| dmglouis | sailerboy: I don't know what that is | 04:42 |
| sailerboy | on the author's website | 04:42 |
| sailerboy | or the ppa | 04:42 |
| kr3w | im getting so annoyed with ubuntu, going back to windows! bah! | 04:42 |
| sailerboy | there should be a bug tracker | 04:42 |
| sailerboy | that tracks bugs | 04:42 |
| sailerboy | the solution may or may not be on there already | 04:42 |
| Gnea | kr3w: sorry to hear that, good luck | 04:42 |

| lampliter | undecim: it's the recovery/repair console | 05:04 |
| undecim | lampliter: Only thing I can think of is to se a low-resolution on the boot line | 05:04 |
| BitEncrypt | theres only one button there | 05:04 |
| affert | there's an applet called "window list" that displays the open windows (minimized or otherwise) in gnome... | 05:05 |
| undecim | lampliter: Does your friend have an intel or ATI card that gives a tiny font (high resolution) | 05:05 |
| BitEncrypt | i have no idea where that is | 05:05 |
| affert | hmm | 05:05 |
| icephreaq | Hello, I've been unable to get both the keyboard and the mouse on my system working at the same time on 10.04. I've tried upgrade from 9.1 and fresh install. Mouse is USB, keyboard is PS2 Help! :-P | 05:05 |

| bazhang | skypce, no | 05:06 |
| lampliter | sorry, speech recognition air | 05:06 |
| affert | right click on your panel, click "add to panel" | 05:06 |
| undecim | lampliter: Try adding "vga=789" to the end of the kernel line in grub | 05:06 |
| affert | "window list" should be one of the options that comes up | 05:06 |
| s2010 | gnome configfiles seem pretty complicated. is there a win mgr that is simpler? | 05:06 |
| merc248 | anyone else here use ubuntu at work? | 05:06 |
| bazhang | hardikar, no idea about nero, what about checking for bugs with brasero/gnomebaker; which version of Ubuntu | 05:06 |
| * merc248 uses ubuntu 10.04 as his workstation | 05:07 | |
| skypce | bazang are you sure, i found alien command that convert rpm to deb? | 05:07 |
| merc248 | at work, that is. | 05:07 |
| bazhang | skypce, especially NOT a kernel | 05:07 |
| affert | merc: i use ubuntu for work | 05:07 |
| BitEncrypt | i added it | 05:07 |
| merc248 | affert: what do you do, if you don't mind me asking? | 05:07 |
| hardikar | bazhang: error log given by brasero in blank! | 05:07 |
| skypce | ok thanks bazhang | 05:07 |

| bazhang | skypce, what kernel do you need, which version of ubuntu | 05:07 |
| kr3w | how would i go about figuring out what webcam the system has detected? | 05:08 |
| s2010 | gnome do did not work for me either! | 05:08 |
| affert | technical support. the company i work for has written some software. when we get a call from a user, i (among other people) fix the issue (or tell them to STOP SPELLING YOUR PASSWORD WRONG, or whatever...) | 05:08 |
| Kavinorum | just upgraded 9.10 > 10.04 and now my wireless doesnt work. I get a message saying wireless disabled where networks should be loading. lshw -C network shows the wireless chip but status is *-network DISABLED. no killswitch. is there some command to turn the wireless back on or something? havent been able to find one in prefs | 05:08 |
| bazhang | kr3w, use the ID to websearch for that model | 05:08 |
| merc248 | ahh man. "support engineer", right? :) | 05:08 |
| douglas | im back from my epic journy through , | 05:08 |
| affert | bitencrypt: do you now have two icons for each non-minimized window at the bottom? | 05:08 |
| douglas | the bios | 05:08 |
| douglas | and found nothing | 05:08 |
| affert | hehehe: something like that | 05:08 |
| k-rad | kr3w try cheese | 05:08 |
| douglas | no such option to change the fan settings | 05:09 |
| gogeta | Kavinorum: sudo ifconfig wlan0 up maybe | 05:09 |
| BitEncrypt | no | 05:09 |
| affert | i think "technical analyst" is my current job title... | 05:09 |
| BitEncrypt | only to the right | 05:09 |
| hardikar | bazhang: oh wait there is one error log, i pasted it here http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/Dbj3H4z4 | 05:09 |
| gogeta | douglas: you can try this http://tuxtweaks.com/2008/08/how-to-control-fan-speeds-in-ubuntu/ | 05:09 |
| BitEncrypt | not to the left | 05:09 |
| merc248 | yeah, i administer a ton of debian and freebsd machines myself. | 05:09 |
| gogeta | douglas: using lmsensures to set the fan | 05:09 |
| affert | and is the window list that you just added on the right or left? | 05:09 |
| edbian | merc248, Where did you find a job like that? | 05:09 |
| BitEncrypt | right | 05:10 |
| giiker | anyone interested in buying an IPCOP Firewalls book,very cheap! | 05:10 |
| edbian | merc248, debian as a desktop | 05:10 |
| merc248 | i could use any other OS if i wanted to, but i can't get a mac and i don't want to use windows, even if it has PuTTy | 05:10 |
| merc248 | edbian: look for "systems administrator" jobs. :) | 05:10 |
| affert | do they disappear from the windows list when minimized? | 05:10 |
| kr3w | you would use a mac over windows? | 05:10 |
| kr3w | wow. | 05:10 |
| edbian | merc248, I will! :) | 05:10 |
| bazhang | hardikar, try a different (ie LEGAL) iso, hackintosh not supported here | 05:10 |
| merc248 | kr3w: yes, because of the terminal. | 05:10 |
| edbian | kr3w, I would use linux over both. | 05:10 |
| bazhang | giiker, offtopic here | 05:10 |
| undecim | lampliter: If that's not large enough, you can set a ridiculously large font with "setfont /usr/share/consolefonts/Uni2-TerminusBold32x16.psf.gz" | 05:11 |
| merc248 | and it's easy to use; sometimes i don't want to mess around with my system before i can actually administer other systems | 05:11 |
| Kavinorum | gogeta, SIOCSIFFLAGS: Unknown error 132 | 05:11 |

| gogeta | douglas: looks like using lm gets everything working with the guide ii gave you | 05:18 |
| edbian | abota, Lower level than that I don't know. | 05:18 |
| affert | so now that windows list is up and running, it displays your currently open windows, but they leave the list when minimized? I'm not sure why it would do that... | 05:18 |
| abota | hmmm | 05:18 |
| gogeta | douglas: acpi=off also works if you boot hot and pass that option to grub | 05:18 |
| abota | would of thooght they'd build that in | 05:18 |
| hardikar | bazhang: hello? | 05:19 |
| affert | maybe this shows my time in the windows world, but have you tried rebooting after getting the window list installed and added... | 05:19 |
| abota | so what go with C and find some god awful way through the code? | 05:19 |
| bazhang | hardikar, yes? | 05:19 |

| actionParsnip | derick_: 32bit = http://packages.medibuntu.org/pool/free/libd/libdvdcss/libdvdcss2_1.2.10-0.3medibuntu1_i386.deb 64bit = http://packages.medibuntu.org/pool/free/libd/libdvdcss/libdvdcss2_1.2.10-0.3medibuntu1_amd64.deb | 05:34 |
| derick_ | 32bit | 05:35 |
| mobius2 | piyushmishra, you are upgrading your server to lampp? | 05:35 |
| derick_ | VLC is now trying to play it but it can't figure out what region it is | 05:35 |
| wise_crypt | anyone has the lightest ubuntu lucid version here, i need it very small like 256 Mb ? | 05:35 |
| piyushmishra | mobius2: no I just installed lamp for the first time on ubuntu actually m new to linux as a whole | 05:35 |
| bazhang | wise_crypt, minimal, 12mb | 05:35 |
| derick_ | libdvdcss2 is already installed | 05:35 |
| mobius2 | piyushmishra, I would suggest you call the security command from terminal first, | 05:36 |
| gogeta | douglas: any luck getting the fan to fire up | 05:36 |
| IdleOne | derick_: try installing libdvdread4 with sudo apt-get install libdvdread4 | 05:36 |
| mobius2 | then reset all the default passwords | 05:36 |
| douglas | no | 05:36 |
| derick_ | IdleOne: its already installed, just tried it | 05:36 |
| piyushmishra | mobius2: am not sure what that means can you elaborate? | 05:36 |
| IdleOne | derick_: how about ubuntu-restricted-extras | 05:37 |
| wise_crypt | bazhang: need the dekstop also (ex. xfce, enlightment) do you have it ? | 05:37 |
| douglas | when it tells me to sudo modprobe module1 module2 | 05:37 |
| douglas | it getts an error | 05:37 |
| derick_ | IdleOne: did that earlier trying to get windows media audio files to play, no luck with those | 05:37 |
| actionParsnip | derick_: ok then insert a video dvd, open a media playing app like totem and it should be ok | 05:37 |
| mobius2 | piyushmishra, you can change all the ( very weak) security defaults at one time by entering the terminal and typing | 05:37 |
| mobius2 | /opt/lampp/lampp security | 05:37 |
| star[clan] | Hi all | 05:37 |
| gogeta | douglas: well you can start linux at grub press c at the kernel line and add acpi=off ssence yoyur aruldy running hot the fan should stay on | 05:37 |
| mobius2 | of course you will need to sudo up | 05:37 |
| piyushmishra | mobius2: its not lampp I am using | 05:38 |
| gogeta | douglas: add it to the end i would tell how to make that perment but it only works after your model hp is hot | 05:38 |
| douglas | soo, i press c when the grub is loading? | 05:38 |
| mobius2 | piyushmishra, :P okay | 05:38 |
| piyushmishra | mobius2: its the lamp from sudo tasksel on terminal | 05:38 |
| douglas | ok what do i do/ | 05:38 |
| mobius2 | oh excellent | 05:38 |
| douglas | im lost | 05:38 |
| === dgtlchlk is now known as dgtl|screen | ||
| derick_ | totem says i don't have permission to view the file and VLC tries to play but is all glitchey saying that its impossible to decode the entire DVD or something like that | 05:39 |
| gogeta | douglas:desent grub show you what its going to boot or do you only have 1 os | 05:39 |
| piyushmishra | mobius2: wht should I do abt htaccess? | 05:39 |
| piyushmishra | :( | 05:39 |
| gogeta | douglas: in that case you need to press esc to get the menu | 05:39 |
| actionParsnip | derick_: ok, have you installed and configured video drivers? Do you have desktrop effects running ok? | 05:39 |
| douglas | i only have 1 os | 05:39 |
| mobius2 | piyushmishra, not certain. I thought you needed help with a webserver called LAMPP bundle so please forgiver | 05:40 |
| PatrinStar | where can i go to ask questions about my ps2? | 05:40 |
| derick_ | yes, i have them on extra, didn't need to do anything with them out of box. its an intel chipset btw | 05:40 |
| douglas | so when its loading the grob | 05:40 |
| douglas | i press esc? | 05:40 |
| gogeta | douglas: ok then esc when grub starts to get your menu then press c at the kernel line and at the end add acpi-off | 05:40 |
| piyushmishra | mobius2: lampp bundle is now called xampp for linux | 05:40 |
| piyushmishra | mobius2: I have that too | 05:40 |
| mobius2 | piyushmishra, okay | 05:40 |
| douglas | ok ill try to do that | 05:40 |
| douglas | brb | 05:40 |
| gogeta | douglas: your fan should remane on | 05:40 |
| piyushmishra | mobius2: but when i installed that it showed 403 forbidden | 05:40 |
| piyushmishra | :( | 05:41 |
| mobius2 | piyushmishra, thats because you need to set the proper permissions for your htdocs directory | 05:41 |
| mobius2 | piyushmishra, chmod ing the directory 0777 would suffice :) | 05:41 |
| piyushmishra | mobius2: did that already but its of no use | 05:41 |
| douglas | ok wrote all that down | 05:42 |
| piyushmishra | mobius2: same errot | 05:42 |
| douglas | brb | 05:42 |
| piyushmishra | error* | 05:42 |

| Chinta | 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.

| SICILIA12 | no | 05:47 |
| SICILIA12 | for files | 05:47 |
| actionParsnip | derick_: its an simple abstract though process. It's like someone saying "i'm going to give you some fruit now" then handing you a banana. Even if you didn't know what a banana was you know it would relate to the word "fruit" which I was previously mentioning | 05:47 |
| IdleOne | SICILIA12: explain more please. are you looking for files you have downloaded already? | 05:47 |
| SICILIA12 | no | 05:48 |
| actionParsnip | derick_: if you run: gksudo vlc can you play the DVD? | 05:48 |

| Chinta | :-) | 05:49 |
| derick_ | VLC is not supposed to be run as root. Sorry.If you need to use real-time priorities and/or privileged TCP ports | 05:49 |
| derick_ | you can use vlc-wrapper (make sure it is Set-UID root and | 05:49 |
| derick_ | cannot be run by non-trusted users first). | 05:49 |
| gogeta | we will pirate you a ubuntu iso lol | 05:49 |

| derick_ | weird. i just put the disc in and it asked what program i wanted to use, i used VLC first then totem and both played without a problem other then spinning up the disc when i paused it | 06:02 |
| derick_ | where do i get that? | 06:02 |
| gogeta | derick_: guess it didnt like you today lol | 06:02 |

| gogeta | derick_: http://medibuntu.org/ | 06:04 |
| derick_ | but what about rythembox, i like rythembox's setup, its just like itunes in a way just better | 06:04 |
| gogeta | derick_: it uses the win32 codecs ubuntu does not inclde and well as dvddecrypting | 06:04 |
| * mobius2 does not seem to click with rythmbox, tho he does recognize good coding | 06:05 | |
| Frigga | I got a dumb question. :/ | 06:05 |
| mobius2 | is better than making a dumb mistake no? | 06:05 |
| mobius2 | :D | 06:05 |
| derick_ | i thought the restricted thing was supposed to install that stuff. i tried playing them on ubuntu's sibling mint and it wouldnt play em either, but on that i was able to get mplayer to play it | 06:05 |

| akaustav | Umm... IdleOne, I had run a Cleanup on Janitor and it had cleaned/removed the kernel. But it seems some files in /boot still remain. | 06:08 |
| wise_crypt | Frigga: yes if you do the partitioning correctly | 06:08 |
| mobius2 | Frigga, you need to get into the habit of properly shutting down in windows ( in the event you were already not ) because of the fact that "dirty" or improper dismounts of an ntfs file system causes all kinds of drama in linux | 06:08 |
| gottto | Frigga: you know about dualboot but you don't know that? | 06:08 |

| Frigga | So wubi will install Ubuntu inside of my windows? | 06:11 |
| derick_ | Frigga: yes but it runs it like a normal OS | 06:11 |
| elcaas | kien habla español | 06:11 |
| mobius2 | vlc plays the dvd vorbis CODECS alright | 06:11 |
| derick_ | Mobius2: thanks | 06:11 |
| gogeta | !es | 06:11 |
| ubottu | 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. | 06:11 |
| derick_ | huh? | 06:11 |
| Zenchess | I am trying to download source code from random packages in ubuntu repositories, in 'software sources' (10.04) "Source code" is in orange, but I can't make it have a checkmark without turning it white. How do I get source code? | 06:12 |
| Kien | yo | 06:12 |
| Frigga | Will I be able to use my mp3s and media through wubi? | 06:12 |
| mobius2 | derick_, so what happens when you place a dvd movie in your computer? | 06:12 |
| actionParsnip | Zenchess: in software sources you can put a check next to source code | 06:12 |
| mobius2 | what response / errors / verbose instructs are you getting from your computer? | 06:12 |
| derick_ | i've only tried two, taken didnt want to play and avatar opened a autoplay scenario | 06:12 |
| mobius2 | man i cannot beleive how difficult this has been to make my little webcam work | 06:13 |
| mobius2 | derick_, okay | 06:13 |
| derick_ | Frigga: thats what its supposed to do, but i can't access my windows partition, but all my media is on another system thats always on | 06:13 |
| gogeta | mobius2: your telling me i got my vision cam to work 1 time | 06:13 |
| derick_ | mobius2: have u tried cheese? | 06:13 |
| douglas | its my bed time ill work on this later | 06:13 |
| douglas | sorry bye | 06:13 |
| derick_ | night douglas | 06:13 |
| Zenchess | actionParsnip: I can't make it do a checkmark, it only turns orange or white, everything else has a checkmark. Also it's been orange for a while and I can't figure out how to get sources | 06:13 |
| gogeta | derick_: window partation flaged dirty whont auto mount after you let chkdsk run in windows it should start working | 06:14 |
| mobius2 | gogeta, Im praying over a SABRENT WCM-6LNV | 06:14 |
| Goober | i boot to cd, first screen comes up, tried both install and run live, neither will load. says loading kernel (up to 100%) then that it cannot read cd....grrrr | 06:14 |
| mobius2 | works flawlessly in xp | 06:14 |
| mobius2 | beautiful | 06:14 |
| Goober | but it loads just fine on another system | 06:14 |
| Goober | any ideas | 06:14 |
| Ganymede | so i have seen my ubuntu desktop 10.04s sometimes fail to boot because one of the disks listed in fstab as "auto" could not be mounted...it hung at the splash screen waitingf or me to press "s". is there a way to ask it to boot no matter what, if a disk other than / is missing? for instance, i have a headless ubuntu 10.04 lucid...i'd like it to boot if one of it's bulk storage disks could not be mounted (the power cable on that disk is a bit fla | 06:14 |
| Ganymede | ky) | 06:14 |
| derick_ | gogeta: windows did not run a chkdsk that i know of, haven't run windows in more then three days, been using ubuntu and mint | 06:14 |
| mobius2 | Goober are you attempting to install linux to a computer and you are getting a hung system is that right? | 06:14 |
| mobius2 | reburn the disc :) | 06:15 |
| gogeta | derick_: probly ewwhy its not working | 06:15 |
| a16BitSoft | I have a question - how do I set Ubuntu 10.04 to automatically look for updates on a daily basis? | 06:15 |
| Goober | disk works fine on other systems | 06:15 |
| gogeta | derick_: you can always tell it to run via cmd if it doesent | 06:15 |
| mobius2 | bummer | 06:15 |
| mobius2 | hrm | 06:15 |
| derick_ | gogeta: so windows is gettin jeolous? | 06:15 |
| derick_ | lol | 06:15 |
| actionParsnip | Zenchess: maybe you need to use: gksudo software-center (weird american spelling) | 06:15 |
| gogeta | derick_: naa the resize flages it as nedeing chkdsk run | 06:15 |
| Frigga | Thanks all, I`m pretty new to OS`s other than Windows, but so far, I like what I see. | 06:15 |
| * mobius2 has often wondered about "windows burnin" in various types of hardware | 06:16 | |
| mobius2 | but was too shy to mention it :p | 06:16 |
| derick_ | Frigga: ubuntu is a great OS once you learn it like u had to with windows | 06:16 |
| Entu | Can i get some help with apache? | 06:16 |
| Zenchess | a16BitSoft: I think it's set to that on default | 06:16 |
| derick_ | well i gotta get to bed, got to catch a flight pretty early! | 06:16 |
| Goober | why would the cd boot but then say unable to ready when i tell it to install or boot live version....doesnt make sense | 06:16 |
| Goober | read* | 06:17 |
| Steppenwolf | Hi I would like to install java on my browser by using synaptic could anyone tell how? | 06:17 |
| Frigga | Yeah, I just have to learn to properly use wine and I`m set | 06:17 |
| a16BitSoft | Zenchess - yes it is set to look for updates by default, but my computer never tells me there are updates? | 06:17 |
| mobius2 | this is where someone can help 2 people at once | 06:17 |
| Entu | Steppenwold search for java | 06:17 |
| bazhang | !java | 06:17 |
| ubottu | 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) | 06:17 |
| mobius2 | how do i determine the dvd player lib set i have installed? | 06:17 |
| mobius2 | and can i copy them for someone? | 06:17 |
| gogeta | Frigga: run your wine config from the menu slect audio so it sets a audio driver then just right click a .exe and open with wine launcher | 06:18 |
| Zenchess | So where do you find source code if you have it enabled ? Maybe I'm missing something? | 06:18 |
| Entu | !apache | 06:18 |
| ubottu | LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+) | 06:18 |
| mobius2 | cause now that i think of it i can play ANYthing and the dvd's are beautiful | 06:18 |
| mobius2 | i DID spend ALOT of time getting them too | 06:18 |
| mobius2 | i ended up getting them from some gentoo guy | 06:18 |
| mobius2 | sadistic ^%^& | 06:18 |

| mobius2 | Goober im suspsecting your ROM | 06:19 |

| wizz | !game | 06:19 |
| actionParsnip | Frigga: there are many OSes out there, people just put their microsoft blinkers on too fast | 06:19 |
| Goober | so it can scan the cd for defects but cant read the bloody thing to install | 06:19 |

| sverre | Hi, I have a problem with VPN (openvpn) on Network manager after upgrade to 10.04 it turns deadly slow (7sec delay on ssh), anyone have a clue? | 06:25 |
| chouchou | hi alll | 06:25 |
| chouchou | good morning ... | 06:25 |
| mobius2 | Goober, well just don't forget where the windows rig is , cause I still use windows every day, not from necessity but for .....other reasons | 06:25 |
| actionParsnip | kei_: run: sudo lshw -C sound; lspci | grep -i audio use some of the output to find guides | 06:25 |
| actionParsnip | chouchou: good morning :( | 06:26 |
| mobius2 | Goober, try re burning it to a new disc at a LOWER BURNSPEED | 06:26 |
| kei_ | ty | 06:26 |
| chouchou | I have just set my Aptana IDE on ubuntu.. I want to find out between Zend and Xdebug, which one is best? | 06:26 |
| mobius2 | try the minimum | 06:26 |
| mobius2 | 4x | 06:26 |
| amabo | does anyone here know how to get the filesystem menu onto the panel? things like File, Edit, Tools, Help (a la Mac)? | 06:26 |
| chai16 | please help me out my compiz has acted up and wont put any window decorations on, so i rebooted, now nothing shows up! i managed to get here by booting the failsafeX | 06:26 |
| Frigga | I`m not sure if this is just my computer, but why does 9.10 look much neater and more well done than 10.04? | 06:27 |
| mobius2 | chai16 when you reboot next press ESC to pull up the kernel image list | 06:27 |
| Goober | my guess is when it doadsthe kernelitloses the cd drivers somewhere in the process | 06:27 |
| mobius2 | then boot to an older stable image | 06:27 |
| Frigga | Also, 10.04 crashed on me quite a few times, wjere 9.10 did not | 06:27 |
| mobius2 | you'll know which ones are the older ones | 06:27 |
| actionParsnip | amabo: don't think so, would be great for netbooks though. submit the idea on http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com | 06:27 |
| chai16 | mobius2: i only have one available... | 06:27 |
| mobius2 | it's a linear list | 06:27 |
| mobius2 | yuk | 06:27 |
| chouchou | any answer ? | 06:27 |
| mobius2 | howsthat? | 06:28 |
| amabo | i've seen it in screenshots actionParsnip | 06:28 |
| sverre | Hi there, I have a problem with VPN (openvpn) on Network manager after upgrade to 10.04 it turns deadly slow (7sec delay on ssh), anyone have a clue? | 06:28 |
| mobius2 | you changed the settings to save drive space? | 06:28 |
| actionParsnip | chai16: i'd ask in #compiz | 06:28 |
| mobius2 | lol | 06:28 |
| mobius2 | yikes | 06:28 |
| kei_ | actionParsnip, I did that and it just gave me info. No errors or anything. Is there a place I could post what it says? I am still new to the world of linux | 06:28 |
| actionParsnip | amabo: really? you sure they weren't mac? | 06:28 |
| IdleOne | chouchou: try them both and you decide which is best for you | 06:28 |
| chai16 | mobius2: yeah, i only have one kernel. i used ubuntu tweak to clean up space | 06:28 |
| mixxit | im trying to edit grub parameters to set a video mode and its all seems all strange | 06:29 |
| mixxit | theres no menu lst but files that seem to refer to grub.d | 06:29 |
| actionParsnip | kei_: yes and you then throw the product line from lshw or the last line which is from the lspci command into bing, ask, google, metacity etc and you will find guides | 06:29 |
| mobius2 | chai16, tell me how you broke it again? | 06:29 |
| amabo | actionParsnip: yes - http://emilywind.deviantart.com/art/My-Desktop-165249097 | 06:29 |
| Goober | how do i attempt install from the text mode interphace | 06:29 |
| Goober | interface* | 06:29 |
| * mobius2 breaks his s^%t all the time | 06:29 | |
| Flannel | Goober: The best way to do it is with the Alternate CD | 06:30 |
| chai16 | amabo: check out the package called something like "global menu panel applet" i tried it out but not for me | 06:30 |
| kei_ | actionParsnip, http://www.pastebin.org/281954 there the output | 06:30 |
| mobius2 | Goober I bet if you just re burn the installation media from a lower burn speed it will work for ya | 06:30 |
| actionParsnip | amabo: email the user who's pic it is and ask, most direct way i can think of | 06:30 |
| mobius2 | or just reburn it period | 06:30 |
| chai16 | mobius2: in ubuntu tweak i just selected any old .deb files to be deleted and then also deleted the older kernel images | 06:31 |
| Frigga | Will running ubuntu in wubi drag my computers overall performance down? She`s not very strong, y`know. :/ | 06:31 |
| mobius2 | chai16, did you learn something about deleting old images? | 06:31 |
| mobius2 | sometimes you need them | 06:31 |
| actionParsnip | kei_: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1088978 | 06:31 |
| mobius2 | at least one plus a backup | 06:31 |
| wise_crypt | Frigga : use the live cd instead | 06:31 |
| mobius2 | but i also understand how those pruning programs work | 06:32 |
| aill | anyone know a cheap domain registrar for transfering .INFO domains to? | 06:32 |
| mobius2 | they generally aint worth their drive space | 06:32 |
| actionParsnip | Frigga: the ubuntu install will be affected by the crappiness of ntfs as the drive image is stored in ntfs | 06:32 |
| kei_ | thank you actionParsnip I will look at it now | 06:32 |
| brianlions | mixxit: grub2 is the default boot loader now, not grub | 06:32 |
| gorlak_ | anyone know about the 8 char limit on ssh for the vinagre vnc client? while doing ssh tunneling? | 06:32 |
| mobius2 | goober if all else fails you could install a copy of windows 2k and then upgrade to ubuntu FROM WITHIN the windows OS | 06:32 |
| actionParsnip | Frigga: it will also take up HDD space so will reduce the space windows has for pagefile | 06:32 |
| mobius2 | thats always fun | 06:32 |
| chai16 | mobius2: yeah, the lesson is to keep them as a backup | 06:32 |
| mixxit | thanks | 06:33 |
| mobius2 | chai16, bingo | 06:33 |
| chai16 | i'll check over to #compiz | 06:33 |
| actionParsnip | kei_: i simply copied "ATI Technologies Inc SBx00 Azalia (Intel HDA)" and put it into bing. Lots of guides appeared | 06:33 |
| Frigga | I also never never understood ntfs and fat. :/ I suck at this | 06:33 |

| lgp171188 | Hi, I am having some issues with ad-hoc wireless network in Ubuntu Lucid. I created a temporary ad-hoc network but it still persists even after reboot and there are a lot of ad-hoc wireless networks that are created with a lot of unicode characters in their names. How do I delete them? Any ideas? | 07:00 |
| Tazy | Of my two partitions, one of them is Unallocated and the second one if ext4, but between them is one sector of unallocated space and also my grub partition | 07:01 |

| Tazy | Anyone know how I can fix this? | 07:01 |
| posde | *grml* ok, origin without anything else works. | 07:01 |
| rubydiamond | Is it possible not having primary drive | 07:02 |
| posde | Thanks guys and have a great day. | 07:02 |
| rubydiamond | and have only extended drives | 07:02 |
| rubydiamond | I just deleted my windows primary partition | 07:02 |
| well_laid_lawn | Tazy: the partitions must be unmounted | 07:02 |
| Tazy | I'm running off a live CD, so none of them are mounted | 07:02 |
| samuel02 | how do I start my firewall again | 07:03 |
| samuel02 | I shut it down with sudo /etc/fw/fwshutdown.sh | 07:03 |
| indieross | so whenever you make a link to a folder or whatever in ubuntu 10.04 it puts a little arrow on the link folder/icon, how do you remove it? | 07:04 |
| indieross | in 9.04 and before the option would be under the emblems tab | 07:04 |
| === nastya is now known as rursi | ||
| athlion | indieross: if I get that straight | 07:05 |
| athlion | indieross: what you say is that you create a symbolink link, which gnome represented by using an arrow, but you want to remove the arrow? | 07:06 |
| indieross | yesh please | 07:06 |
| Tazy | Are there some filesystems easier to move than others? | 07:06 |
| adam__ | Hey, I was wondering how I would go about creating a copy of a bootable flash drive I have to another flash drive? | 07:06 |
| indieross | when i set a folder to i custom icon it moves the symbolik to the top of the folder and looks ugly | 07:07 |
| samuel02 | how do I start my firewall again, I shut it down with sudo /etc/fw/fwshutdown.sh | 07:07 |
| guyver-unit | hi, anyone here with evolution mail experiance that can help me | 07:07 |
| athlion | indieross: well, look, I believe you can't (and there is reason for it). It is like you wanting to represent directories with a 'file' icon and not the 'directory' icon. See, a symbolic link is a very special file | 07:07 |
| athlion | indieross: why do you mind the arrow icon? | 07:07 |

| athlion | Tazy: well | 07:10 |
| athlion | Tazy: what are the relevant posotions? I mean, is the new in the begining? | 07:11 |
| athlion | Tazy: could you post the partition table as given by fdisk ? | 07:12 |

| Tazy | It's a macbook, so first is the Fat32 EFI partition, then HFS+ holding OS X, then some unallocated space, then GRUB, some more unallocated space, my deleted partition, and then Swap | 07:12 |

| linux | I install xp first then windows 7 and then ubuntu now i wanna delete xp and want windows 7 loader to appear with choice w7 n ubuntu | 07:14 |
| Tazy | Well, it's installed fine now ;w; | 07:14 |
| Tazy | All i want to do is expand it's data | 07:14 |
| athlion | Tazy: cool, so, why can't you just delete the old partition and resize the new one? | 07:14 |
| Tazy | I tried that! | 07:14 |
| athlion | Tazy: and? | 07:14 |
| Tazy | Well, grub is between the two | 07:14 |
| athlion | Tazy: oh right, shit | 07:15 |
| mneptok | !language | athlion | 07:15 |
| ubottu | athlion: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. | 07:15 |
| Tazy | moving grub scares me because, well, it's grub. | 07:15 |
| Nonesthecool | linux: I can give you no more tips other than pick your partitions properly! | 07:15 |
| nomad77 | rubydiamond: yes,but you need to create logical partitions it can use on the extended partition | 07:15 |
| Nonesthecool | size that is | 07:15 |
| athlion | Tazy: right.... Well in *theory* you should have no problems | 07:15 |
| linux | i thing it is possible but want ur help | 07:16 |
| athlion | Tazy: but yes, I see what you mean | 07:16 |
| Tazy | The theory is always perfect ;w; but i'm surprised there isn't an option to add data to a partition from anywhere | 07:16 |
| Tazy | I mean, it's unallocated space | 07:16 |
| ljsoftnet | where does all the schema in mysql save? | 07:17 |
| athlion | Tazy: yes but partitions and filesystems go a long way back and they do need certain things consistent | 07:17 |
| linux | Nonesthecool, can i delete the windows old folder to delete xp | 07:17 |
| athlion | Tazy: there is an option with LVM to use two partitions | 07:17 |
| Tazy | LVM>? | 07:17 |
| athlion | Tazy: Yes, but you can't do it now since you have already installed it | 07:18 |
| Nonesthecool | you should be able to with Gparted | 07:18 |
| another_david | I'm using ubuntu/gnome and the "on/off" button on the panel keep disappearing. Is this a known bug? | 07:18 |
| athlion | with LVM you could span an lvm 'virtual' partition and place a filesystem on top of that | 07:18 |
| Tazy | ah | 07:18 |
| athlion | Tazy: but this need to be done *before* :-( | 07:18 |
| Tazy | dddamn | 07:18 |
| Nonesthecool | I deleted my freebsd partion when I installed ubuntu, linux | 07:18 |
| hrgplumer | Hey guys | 07:19 |
| Tazy | yeah, but I was using my old installation to hold all my files while I replaced Windows with my new one | 07:19 |
| athlion | Tazy: why not wipe the entire thing and do it from scratch | 07:19 |
| athlion | ? | 07:19 |
| Tazy | Because I'd lose all my files and I basically just got settled | 07:19 |
| athlion | Tazy: right. | 07:19 |
| Tazy | I wonder if Diskutil in OS X could do this though U: | 07:19 |
| linux | my plan is to delete old xp folder and from ubuntu boot w7 and then repair windows 7 bootloader | 07:19 |
| linux | Nonesthecool, my plan is to delete old xp folder and from ubuntu boot w7 and then repair windows 7 bootloader | 07:20 |
| athlion | my Diskutil sees just two partitions, the OSX and the linux EFI | 07:20 |
| athlion | (which in turn contain the linux and swap) | 07:20 |
| athlion | so, probably, no | 07:20 |
| Tazy | damn | 07:20 |
| linux | Nonesthecool, will deleting xp folder will effect windows 7 | 07:21 |
| Tazy | Alternatively maybe I can add the data in OS X, shrink the OS X partition and take the space for Linux that way | 07:21 |
| athlion | Tazy: look, how did you end up with grub partition in the middle? and why use a grub partition in the first place? | 07:21 |
| Nonesthecool | linux: Sorry, I couldn't tell you | 07:21 |
| Tazy | I don't know why there's a grub partition | 07:21 |
| Nonesthecool | sorry | 07:21 |
| Tazy | like at all | 07:21 |
| Tazy | it's CALLED grub but it says the filesystem is unknown | 07:21 |
| linux | u dont know | 07:21 |
| athlion | Tazy: the installer did it for you automatically? | 07:22 |
| Tazy | I think so | 07:22 |
| athlion | wow, | 07:22 |
| athlion | wait a minute | 07:22 |
| Tazy | grub ended up between the two because originally I installed Windows 7, then my original linux paritition | 07:22 |
| athlion | damn, I'm not on my linux | 07:22 |
| Tazy | Then I replaced Windows 7 with my new linux partition | 07:22 |

| well_laid_lawn | !find pecl | aburrabeet | 07:27 |

| well_laid_lawn | mosno: does ctrl+alt+f2 take you to a tty where you can login? | 07:32 |
| ActionParsnip | Nore: google is a company, not a software. What beta did you install? | 07:32 |
| mosno | well_laid_lawn: no, display is corrupt | 07:32 |
| well_laid_lawn | mosno: on the tty's as well? | 07:32 |
| mosno | well_laid_lawn: i'm guessing it's the compositing window manager trying to detect my hardware? | 07:32 |
| nore | oh, sorry. ActionParsnip google chrome :) | 07:32 |
| mosno | well_laid_lawn: ie. can i disable 3D from the boot menu | 07:32 |

| mosno | well_laid_lawn: yes, on the ttys. | 07:32 |
| indieross | athlion: so newer versions of ubuntu/debian removed the ability to completely remove the links altogether? | 07:33 |
| indieross | for obvious reasons | 07:33 |
| ActionParsnip | nore: simply uninstall the browser. How did you get the beta version? Did you use their script? | 07:33 |

| athlion | athlion: unfortunately I don't have a linux box here right now to test it but if you say that it can't be done, it would appear so, yes | 07:33 |
| well_laid_lawn | mosno: afaik the live cd doesn't default to using the desktops effects - more then likely it isn't agreeing with your vid card | 07:33 |
| nore | probably i did dpkg -i ActionParsnip | 07:33 |
| mosno | well_laid_lawn: but how can GDM display fine? | 07:34 |
| vpr80 | more....got 915 to change the resolution, but my Xorg is blank..what am i missing? | 07:34 |

| mosno | well_laid_lawn: i might try Fedora 13 and see if that is also affected | 07:36 |
| arooni-mobile | ActionParsnip, i guess i need to reboot | 07:37 |
| nore | so, ActionParsnip, how can i uninstall the package which was installed by dpkg -i? | 07:37 |
| well_laid_lawn | mosno: only thing I can think of is that X as autoconfigured the monitor resolution wrong | 07:37 |
| ActionParsnip | Nore: dpkg -l | grep chrom ,you will probably find it's 'chromium-browser' | 07:37 |
| arooni-mobile | ugh i would like regular dvd playback as part of install of ubunthu | 07:37 |
| owenll | nore: sudo apt-get remove google-chrome-unstable | 07:37 |
| zoug | ah, people jumping to chrome for html5.. | 07:37 |
| athlion | indieross: unfortunately, if it can't be done by 'removing' it from the preferences panel, it can only be done by editing .nautilus/metafiles/* files which certainly is not recommended | 07:37 |
| ActionParsnip | Nore: guessing package names is pretty silly as you may inadvertantly uninstall sometging you need | 07:37 |
| mosno | well_laid_lawn: okay, do you know if i can pass any params to the login or the boot to avoid this fancyness? | 07:38 |
| mosno | well_laid_lawn: just burning Fedora now, i'll let you know the outcome | 07:38 |
| nore | ActionParsnip, owenll thanx guys, it was google-chrome-beta :) | 07:38 |
| ActionParsnip | Arooni-mobile: windows doesn't have it by default either. Its a law thing | 07:38 |
| well_laid_lawn | mosno: not X parameters afaik | 07:38 |
| zoug | nore, the tab feature works in apt | 07:38 |
| indieross | athlion: thank you for confirming my suspicion, i think ill file a bug report aboot it | 07:38 |

| Loshki | Silent_Dream: on the contrary, they know ssh listens on port 22. If you pick a non-standard port, they will not know which port to probe. Since there are about 65535 possible ports, this is quite a good deterrent... | 08:24 |

| nickstr-Java | I tried to install a few packages and ended up getting segmentation faults when I ran applications such as Synaptic Package Manager from the terminal | 08:28 |
| Loshki | ogen: no, md5sum - < /dev/sr0 won't boot anything. (I thought you were still booting) | 08:28 |
| ogen | There is no reason why this should be so hard. It was so wierd and hard to md5sum the iso file. (It is a clear set of simple steps in windows. a dialog box comes up with a hash and a text box to paste into and compares for you.) | 08:28 |

| Loshki | nickstr-Java: segfaults at this stage are a bad sign. Something's gone *seriously* wrong with your install.... | 08:33 |
| ActionParsnip | Loshki: or ram is bad | 08:34 |
| nickstr-Java | I will try fsck and see if that does anything | 08:34 |
| nickstr-Java | the RAM is fine | 08:34 |
| nickstr-Java | its a dual boot system and boots into Windows without a problem | 08:34 |
| ogen | Loshki, (interesting fyi) You would think you could simply use a command like this to get the MD5 hash of a burned image: ---> md5sum /dev/cdrom <---- However this almost always NOT be the same hash as the iso image that was burned to the disk, because this command includes the empty space at the end of the disk, which changes the hash. So you must check only the part of the disk that was on the iso. | 08:34 |
| nickstr-Java | it just came up after some botched package installs | 08:34 |
| Loshki | ogen: you should not have received an Input/output error. Until you fix that, you won't be booting much of anything... | 08:34 |

| Loshki | igoryon: try ##OpenGL | 08:42 |
| linux | I can't get the friggin' scanner to pick up. iScan doesn't seem to help either | 08:42 |
| Gnea | wow, so nobody here uses a flat-panel monitor, just a bunch of CRTs... huh... | 08:42 |
| kraut | moin | 08:42 |
| ActionParsnip | Gnea: yep. 1 crt for 4 pcs | 08:43 |
| dbum | Can someone help me with my video problem? I have dual monitors and when I try to fullscreen any flash video (from website) it goes to my 1st monitor and the top left corner is about mid screen with image falling off the monitor... I would like it to play full screen on my 2nd (right) monitor. Movie Player fullscreen works perfect no matter what monitor I enable it from. | 08:43 |
| Gnea | ActionParsnip: lame :) | 08:43 |
| theadmin | Gnea: Huh? Me has a flat monitor... "LCD" if that's what you call em | 08:43 |
| Sharik | Hi all! Could anybody help me with (un)encrypting? | 08:43 |
| tgywa | Hello | 08:43 |
| theadmin | Sharik: (un)?encrypting what, exactly? | 08:43 |
| Gnea | theadmin: well, I've got one and the DVI isn't working... is yours or did you go with the VGA cable? | 08:43 |
| igoryon | Loshki: thanx | 08:43 |
| ActionParsnip | Gnea: hadly. Ssh and web interfaces exist. Does the job and I'll keep using it till it explodes ;) | 08:43 |
| theadmin | Gnea: Uhm. It's a laptop :/ | 08:43 |
| Loshki | linux: what kind of scanner, connected how? | 08:43 |
| Gnea | theadmin: oh pfft | 08:44 |
| ogen | iceroot, it was not windows. The 10.04 was a dark blue with a small figure > square thing at the bottom of a screen. IT was clearly ubuntu -- but I dont know what it meant. I say USE WORDS. lol | 08:44 |
| Gnea | I'm talking about a flatscreen monitor that connects via a *cable* | 08:44 |
| linux | Loshki: MX320 Canon connected through USB cord - detected as printer, but not as scanner too | 08:44 |
| tgywa | how can I check if a plug in is installed on ubuntu(phplist plugin)? | 08:44 |
| Sharik | theadmin, unencrypting the home directory | 08:44 |
| ogen | ghod you'd think I would know if I spent $200 for windows or not. | 08:44 |
| theadmin | Sharik: Hm... I'm unsure how it does that one | 08:44 |
| * pallgone thought that this "decision" to have the buttons on the left requires lots of changes, then I found out that it's just a simple option in gconf-editor and anyone can arrange the buttons just like they want... so good luck with swimming against the stream (gnome default) | 08:44 | |
| igoryon | Gnea: I use flat-panel | 08:44 |
| tgywa | I tried ... dpkg -l | grep phplist | 08:44 |
| tgywa | but didn't work | 08:44 |
| Sharik | theadmin: well, I try to explain the problem | 08:45 |
| tgywa | also tried which phplist | 08:45 |
| ogen | Thanks loski, I'll tell you what happened if I see you. My best result would be to have money and get another box. Yes sir. | 08:45 |
| ActionParsnip | Gnea: yeah vga only. I worked on an ubuntu rig with dvi out as well and it would ONLY work through the dvi under linux. Was classic | 08:45 |
| tgywa | that also didn't give me a hint ... | 08:45 |
| tgywa | any idea ... | 08:45 |
| Loshki | linux: do you know if it's even a supported scanner model? http://www.sane-project.org/sane-backends.html | 08:45 |
| Bishop_ | is there any ubuntuserver channel? | 08:45 |
| ActionParsnip | Gnea: is there a bios option maybe? | 08:45 |
| ActionParsnip | Bishop_: I believe so, try joining it. See if you find other users | 08:46 |
| Loshki | Bishop_: there is #ubuntu-server... | 08:46 |
| Gnea | ActionParsnip: NAFAIK, it's a toss-up between AGP slot and PCI slot | 08:46 |
| tgywa | since plugins are programs, it should be possible to see it using the dpkg command | 08:46 |
| red2kic | Does anybody know any useful package that'll monitor for a change in mostly static website? | 08:46 |
| Sharik | theadmin: I wanted to change the home directory from /home/X to /home/Y. To do this, I did mv /home/X /home/Y, I changed the references of /etc/passwd, /etc/shadow/ and /etc/group files and also I changed the owner by chown -R Y:Y /home/Y | 08:46 |
| tgywa | how can I check if a plug in is installed on ubuntu(phplist plugin)? | 08:47 |
| linux | Loshki: Yeah, a few people have the scanning working fine | 08:47 |
| linux | Loshki: so I don't understand why it isn't working for me. I got all the official packages install direct from Canon, follow instructions on forums. | 08:47 |
| theadmin | Sharik: You don't do that, pfftcht. You "sudo usermod -dm /new/directory/path username" | 08:47 |
| Loshki | linux: does 'sudo lsusb -v' see it? | 08:48 |
| ActionParsnip | Sharik: I think the user manager app thing can do that all for you. Not sure though. | 08:48 |
| Loshki | theadmin: pfftcht? | 08:48 |
| Jyyx | Hello, i want to install 10.04 version, but i cant find the flash version, there is no flash versions? I see only netbook edition, but i dont want that, i want full stuff just with flash install :) | 08:48 |
| theadmin | Loshki: Yes... overcomplicated in general :D | 08:48 |
| Sharik | I did in this way before and everything was well, but now... | 08:48 |
| ActionParsnip | Jyyx: you install flash after you install the OS | 08:49 |
| Sharik | When I saw in the new home (/home/Y), I only have two files, an icon desktop and a Readme.txt file | 08:49 |
| theadmin | Modifying /etc/passwd or shadow by hand is a way weird idea | 08:49 |
| Jyyx | no i mean usb flash storage, not flash player ;p | 08:49 |
| Sharik | readme.txt file says: THIS DIRECTORY HAS BEEN UNMOUNTED TO PROTECT YOUR DATA. From the command line, run: ecryptfs-mount-private | 08:49 |
| Loshki | Sharik: actually, everything you did above looks correct, except when you got to the bit about encrypting/decrypting.... | 08:50 |
| Mandrew | Jyyx, so you want to install it on a flash card? | 08:50 |
| pallgone | Jyyx: flash is just like a hdd | 08:50 |
| ActionParsnip | Jyyx: oic. Download the desktop iso and grab unetbootin. You can create a bootable usb with that | 08:50 |
| ActionParsnip | !install | jyyx | 08:50 |
| ubottu | jyyx: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall - Don't want to use a CD? See http://tinyurl.com/3exghs - See also !automate | 08:50 |
| theadmin | If i have a external hard drive, can I "install" Ubuntu on that the "normal" way or should i use unetbootin? | 08:50 |
| Jyyx | thx for links | 08:51 |
| theadmin | If so, will Ubuntu work with ext2? | 08:51 |
| Sharik | so, it seems, I had the old home encrypted and now, I think I've to mount the home with the encrypting tool (ecryptfs) but I've no idea | 08:51 |
| drizzt__ | sure | 08:51 |
| kelso | why no chinese | 08:51 |
| Loshki | !cn | kelso | 08:51 |
| ubottu | kelso: For Ubuntu help in Chinese 您可以访问中文频道： #ubuntu-cn 或者 #ubuntu-tw 或者 #ubuntu-hk | 08:51 |
| theadmin | ubottu: cn | kelso | 08:51 |
| kelso | thank | 08:52 |
| Jordan_U | theadmin: You can install Ubuntu to a USB drive via the standard installer, just be sure that at the last screen you click the "advanced" button and choose to install grub to the USB drive rather than your internal drive. | 08:52 |
| linux | Loshki: yep | 08:52 |
| theadmin | Jordan_U: err. If it installs to the internal drive not that big of a deal :P I have it there already anyway... but will be warned. | 08:53 |
| linux | Loshki: and it's supported | 08:53 |
| pallgone | Jordan_U: does ubuntu include the the usb hooks necessary to boot from usb? | 08:53 |
| pallgone | Jordan_U: in initram I mean | 08:53 |
| Jordan_U | pallgone: Yes. | 08:53 |
| theadmin | pallgone: Yes it does, many people use bootable Ubuntu USB's | 08:53 |
| Loshki | theadmin: I think you should be able to install to an external hard drive. Does the bios support booting from it? I worry that grub, or the install scripts might not be able to find the external though... | 08:53 |
| theadmin | Loshki: I already managed to boot a unetbootin install using BIOS boot menu | 08:54 |
| Loshki | theadmin: ext2 should work, but ext3 is preferable unless it's an SSD... | 08:54 |
| Sharik | Loshki, theadmin or anybody, any idea about how to mount the new home with the encrypting tool?? | 08:54 |
| pallgone | theadmin: hmm... you're the admin, why do you ask questions here? ;) | 08:54 |
| theadmin | pallgone: I'm not | 08:54 |
| wildbat | lol he is thead-min XD | 08:55 |
| Loshki | Sharik: I think you need expert help. There is an irc server/channel for ecryptfs mentioned here: https://launchpad.net/ecryptfs. | 08:56 |
| |Koenigsegg| | An installation program first asked me to insert cd 2, which I successfully remounted using mount -o loop. But now it wants to read from cd 1 again, and I can't seem to get that one right, neither mount -o loop or mount -o remount works, all I get is a "disc" with one empty garbage file on it. What's the right way to remount a cd? | 08:56 |
| histo | |Koenigsegg|: you can mount them both at the same time | 08:57 |
| Loshki | pallgone: newbies and pros alike ask questions here... | 08:57 |
| nmvictor | hoq are fellow ubuntuerians doing? | 08:57 |
| theadmin | pallgone: Loshki is right here :P If someone would run Ubuntu with a custom kernel, for instance, he's likely to ask some questions here too... altough that's not newbie level | 08:57 |
| |Koenigsegg| | histo: How? By making several cdromx directories in /media? | 08:58 |
| linux | Loshki: Well, I just got an update. we'll see how that goes. You'd figure if the printer works then the .deb packages for the scanner would work too | 08:58 |
| histo | |Koenigsegg|: you can mount images of the cd | 08:58 |
| peepsalot | hey folks, i'm trying to share a folder over the network by using the sharing menu in nautilus, but when I try to access it, i get "Unable to mount location" error. I have other folders shared already, i don't remember how i got those to work, it was so long ago | 08:58 |
| histo | peepsalot: samba? | 08:59 |
| peepsalot | it shows in the list of shared folders over the network, i just can't get into it | 08:59 |
| simplexio | |Koenigsegg|: mount -o loop file target , umount target, far as i know remount should be used onl if you want change option on same media | 08:59 |
| peepsalot | histo, yeah | 08:59 |
| histo | peepsalot: look at your /etc/samba/smb.conf for how you did the others | 08:59 |
| histo | peepsalot: they should be at the bottom of the file | 08:59 |
| simplexio | peepsalot: look at /etc/samba/smb.conf | 08:59 |
| Loshki | linux: it may be one lump of hardware, but as far as the system is concerned, they are two completely separate devices... | 08:59 |
| tgywa | how can I check if a plug in is installed on ubuntu(phplist plugin)? | 08:59 |
| tgywa | how can I check if a plug in is installed on ubuntu(phplist plugin)? | 09:00 |

| Sharik | Loshki: thx, I'll try there | 09:00 |
| peepsalot | histo, simplexio i grepped that file for the folder that are already shared and they are not even in threre | 09:00 |

| omfarka | hello, how can i use my headset at Ubuntu 10.04? When i plug in, the sound cut and doesn't come to my headset | 09:01 |
| |Koenigsegg| | histo: Well, it's the first time for me having to remount discs like this. Someone one another channel suggested using mount -o loop. And it worked for cd 2 in this case. | 09:01 |
| simplexio | peepsalot: but do they work ? | 09:01 |
| linux | Loshki: oh yeah. they're not saying much, though. the only one that gave out directions didn't work for me *shrug* oh well, what're gonna do? | 09:01 |
| peepsalot | is there some other config file that affects samba besides /etc/samba/smb.conf ? | 09:01 |
| histo | |Koenigsegg|: ahh | 09:01 |
| peepsalot | simplexio, i have two folders which I have had shared for a long time, those work fine, i tried to share another, and it's not working | 09:02 |
| Loshki | linux: sorry, no idea... | 09:02 |
| nmvictor | is chromium browser available for powerpc? | 09:02 |
| histo | |Koenigsegg|: you shouold just beable to mount /dev/cdrom and umount /dev/cdrom | 09:02 |
| |Koenigsegg| | simplexio: I get errors from that. "Bad filesystem type, bad flag, bad super block...". Translation from swedish.. | 09:02 |
| theadmin | nmvictor: No, not as of now | 09:02 |
| histo | |Koenigsegg|: it doesn't understand the filesystem on the cd then. | 09:02 |
| simplexio | peepsalot: easiest way to share folder for your own use is just define user shares in smb.conf , if you want open for all dirs, just define one global place where everyone can rie, define quest user and symlink to folder data you want | 09:03 |
| linux | Loshki: tis cool broheim | 09:03 |
| wildbat | tgywa, dpkg -l | grep php | 09:03 |
| simplexio | |Koenigsegg|: did it work before | 09:03 |

| histo | |Koenigsegg|: try -t iso9660 | 09:03 |
| |Koenigsegg| | histo: But it's the disc I started the installation program from :-[. And I didn't do much to it while using cd 2.. | 09:03 |
| |Koenigsegg| | simplexio: yes. | 09:03 |
| tgywa | and didn't work | 09:03 |
| histo | |Koenigsegg|: well umount /dev/cdrom and mount /dev/cdrom | 09:03 |
| peepsalot | simplexio, is there seriously still no gui tool that makes this crap intuitive. i'm sick of dredging through config files | 09:04 |
| histo | peepsalot: thats what nautilus share options are for | 09:04 |
| peepsalot | histo, well, nautilus share options are broken | 09:04 |
| histo | peepsalot: I see system-config-samba in the repos as GUI for managing samba shares | 09:05 |
| simplexio | |Koenigsegg|: swat i think knows howto edit with "gui" but its easiest use just nano for it | 09:05 |
| lengend | Is "Flash" suppose to take up so much CPU resources? | 09:05 |
| simplexio | peepsalot:lok what is sad to |Koenigsegg| | 09:05 |

| histo | nmvictor: aprently not | 09:06 |
| histo | nmvictor: because of V8 | 09:06 |
| linux | Loshki: i will tell you one thing though - I think the gnomeshell is a bad, bad idea. I've tested it on a few separate PCs and its still buggy as heck | 09:06 |
| nmvictor | riz0n: how about reinstalling the package? | 09:06 |
| lengend | wildbat, just listening to a song on youtube is using 60% of resources on my cpu. | 09:07 |

| Loshki | drizzt__: what does 'tty|cut -b 6-' print for you? | 09:08 |
| theadmin | mikolynx: Use unetbootin, to format from terminal: mkfs.fstype /dev/id - example: mkfs.ext2 /dev/sdb1 | 09:08 |
| histo | theadmin: why are you using unetbootin? | 09:08 |
| drizzt__ | Loshki, pts/1 | 09:08 |

| Loshki | drizzt__: and what does 'w | egrep pts/1' print? | 09:09 |

| Rada | In ubuntu 10.4, my keyboards numpad doesn't work. If I take it out of USB and put it back in, it works fine. | 09:10 |
| theadmin | histo: And he did not specify what system exactly does he want to boot from the USB, so... | 09:10 |
| Rada | Google says something about accessibility features but that solution does not work in ubuntu 10.4 (nowhere to disable keyboard accesibility features) | 09:11 |
| effex0r | Can anyone help?>>I have 10.04 installed on a dell inspiron 1720. Everything was working well when I initially installed it, but now my computer locks up when I suspend and or hibernate. I have no idea when this started exactly so I am unable to pinpoint what change/install/upgrade may have caused it, but whenever it happens and my computer starts back up (after a hard shutdown) my networking is disabled and has to be-enabled. Can anyone hel | 09:11 |
| Rada | oh nevermind, found it | 09:11 |
| mikolynx | brb | 09:11 |
| simplexio | hubert_: not that i know aything about fakeraid, but software raid is in most cases much better idea that using some low end stuff from motherboard | 09:12 |
| riz0n | OK, so I uninstalled phpmyadmin and then reinstalled it. It asked me for the password to the administrative account (I'm assuming that is the password to my root user, so I provided it) but I'm still getting the same error... Connection for controluser as defined in your configuration failed. I'm a little confused as to what this "controluser" is and what I should do to get it to match what is in my system.. Any ideas? | 09:12 |
| pallgone | effex0r: probably a kernel update broke it? | 09:12 |
| Loshki | drizzt__: I give in. Ask on #bash... | 09:12 |
| theadmin | riz0n: No root user as such, it should be asking for YOUR password likely | 09:13 |
| pallgone | effex0r: you could try to hold down shift on boot so you can get to grub menu and see if you can select the old kernel | 09:13 |
| effex0r | pallgone: Possibly. I have 3 kernels in grub now. I'm a n00b, but I tried logging in via grub by selecting each kernel individually, and the same problem when I try each one. | 09:13 |
| riz0n | theadmin: well my password and the root password are the same | 09:13 |
| conb123 | Hiya, if I were to get a small ssd, if I wanted to keep my operating system files and application files on the ssd and all of my stuff on the hdd simply be setting the / partition to the ssd and the /home to the hdd or is there more to it than that? | 09:13 |
| hubert_ | wildbat, simplexio, I'll try to read some doc about software raid. I thought fakeraid was the new way to do it. | 09:13 |

| ubottu | eipi-1: Upstart is meant to replace the old Sys V Init system with an event-driven init model. For more information please see: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/ | 09:17 |
| effex0r | pallgone: thanks, do I type that into bing search? | 09:18 |
| Jyyx | its strange, when i was installing karmic, jaunty, hardy, everything worked out of the box, but on this one i get crazy errors on cd installer and on wubi installer aswell :/ | 09:18 |
| BrianE | By the way, I have the same bug as effex0r, but with an ATI HD4570 video card -- It's not Nvidia-specific | 09:18 |
| histo | eipi-1: ahh that link is no good | 09:18 |
| hk_hk | how i can use code page 737 on terminal ? | 09:18 |
| pallgone | effex0r: no :) in terminal > this will list some suspend packages which you can install | 09:18 |
| hk_hk | noone knows? :( | 09:19 |
| effex0r | pallgone: Thanks. I just typed it in. It has a list of like 50 programs or so. | 09:20 |
| histo | eipi-1: how did you install tftpd ? | 09:20 |
| wildbat_laptop | >.< stupid internet >.< | 09:20 |
| Jyyx | gonna try 64bit cd installer, maybe get lucky with it *_* | 09:20 |
| nmvictor | whats the keyboard shortcut tto left click, just realized that CTRL+F12 right clicks | 09:20 |
| eipi-1 | histo, using apt-get | 09:20 |
| BrianE | CTRL F12 doesn't right click on this end | 09:20 |
| conb123 | simplexico: Right ok then thanks, wouldn't grub 2 do that automatically? | 09:20 |
| pallgone | effex0r: read the descriptions, install some you like like this: sudo aptitude install <package> | 09:21 |
| histo | eipi-1: are you sure it didn't add it already? | 09:21 |
| pallgone | effex0r: and usually you can get a description on how to use it after installing with 'man <package>' | 09:21 |
| eipi-1 | histo, no i am not. but when i do netstat -lu it does not show anything on port udp/69 | 09:22 |
| effex0r | ok. I think I'm in over my head :p I'm too stupid for linux | 09:22 |
| histo | eipi-1: let me see if I can find a howto for ya | 09:22 |
| === DaZ^ is now known as DaZ | ||
| pallgone | effex0r: or try the software center | 09:23 |
| effex0r | pallgone: Ok. Thanks for your help :) | 09:23 |
| pallgone | effex0r: np | 09:23 |
| Jyyx | when i use cd installer it throws error "no CD detected, cannot run CD menu" although i can easy open the cd, check all the files in it and see that the CD is there | 09:23 |
| conb123 | Ok? I was trying to get the size of these files and folders "bin, boot, dev, etc, lib, lib32, lib64, opt, proc, root, sbin, selinux, srv, sys, tmp, usr, var, initrd.img, initrd.img.old, vmlinuz, vmlinuz.old" to get an idea of how big an ssd i'd need but it keeps telling me that it totals 128tb, why? | 09:24 |
| histo | eipi-1: sudo /etc/init.d/openbsd-inet start ???? | 09:24 |
| mintux | I did this step https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenVPN but in the last step when I restart openvpn I got * Autostarting VPN 'server' [fail] this is my log http://codepad.org/ARMLTw4B | 09:24 |
| === Votan is now known as Votan|off | ||
| histo | eipi-1: that may be for the old way | 09:25 |
| eipi-1 | histo, no /etc/init.d/openbsd-inet | 09:25 |
| eipi-1 | histo, oh wait | 09:26 |
| eipi-1 | histo, still no so called file | 09:26 |
| riz0n | OK so I figured out the controluser error, and got that fixed (dpkg-reconfigure phpmyadmin did it) | 09:26 |
| histo | eipi-1: I'm having trouble trying to find docs | 09:26 |
| histo | eipi-1: http://wiki.answers.com/Q/How_do_you_install_and_configure_tftpd_under_ubuntu | 09:27 |
| eipi-1 | conb123, makes no sense to try to get the seize of /proc | 09:27 |
| rabby | hi | 09:27 |
| histo | eipi-1: i'm sure it can be started with upstart but someone else may have more info on update-rc.d | 09:28 |
| rabby | how to make a fstab entry to boot after(!) network is connected? | 09:28 |
| riz0n | but now I'm getting another error I've never seen before.. The additional features for working with linked tables have been deactivated. To find out why click here. And everything is "Not OK" | 09:28 |
| conb123 | eipi-1: ah, that must be the problem, tells me 128tb | 09:28 |
| Cube`` | hey guys. when i use skype to view and transmit my webcam, it's VERY dark. what should i do? | 09:28 |
| pallgone | rabby: put _netdev into options | 09:28 |
| conb123 | eipi-1: I'll leave that out then | 09:29 |
| eipi-1 | histo, its strange, it should be startable with sudo service tftpd start and it even responses with succes, but then there is no service on that udp port :/ | 09:29 |
| eipi-1 | conb123, good idea :) | 09:29 |
| rabby | pallgone: thanks, is this a new option? before upgrading ubuntu it worked without that. | 09:30 |
| conb123 | eipi-1: Hm, only 8.7, might get myself a 30gb ssd then | 09:30 |
| eipi-1 | conb123, how did you try to get that seize? When i try it with 'du' i get 0 for /proc | 09:30 |
| riz0n | arg... I think I'm gonna wait till tomorrow to fix this :\ | 09:30 |
| riz0n | It's almost 5 AM here and I need to get to sleep | 09:31 |
| conb123 | eipi-1: Er just nautilus, right click properties for everything except, media, cdrom, proc, lost+found, root, mnt | 09:31 |
| eipi-1 | conb123, might be more economic that a 128 TB one | 09:31 |
| pallgone | rabby: no it's not a new option, what is the matter? | 09:31 |
| conb123 | eipi-1: hahha | 09:31 |
| Lloyd | Hello everyone - I'm on Day 2 of my first Linux Installation, my 3rd boot up - and I'm stuck with Empathy. How do I make it log into my accounts? | 09:32 |
| eipi-1 | conb123, you could use the money to buy me one too, would love to have one :P How much is a 30G SSD? | 09:32 |
| conb123 | eipi-1: They are mega expensive at the moment, I'm looking at one here in the UK for 76.99 | 09:33 |
| conb123 | eipi-1: £ obviously | 09:33 |
| Galerien | Lloyd: the letter icone top right corner | 09:33 |
| conb123 | eipi-1: only 30gb | 09:33 |
| eipi-1 | conb123, oO guess i'll wait | 09:34 |
| Lloyd | Galerien - Ah thank you! I was clicking on the chat bubble with a cross in it like a maniac! | 09:34 |
| barcode | Lazy^ | 09:34 |
| Galerien | Lloyd: yeah, you could have been stuck for a long time with that :D | 09:34 |
| conb123 | eipi-1: Yeah I might do to, new technologies are always expensive I suppose, I'm just an impatient kind of guy | 09:34 |
| vimalg2 | Has anyone had major issues with soft RAID1 on 10.04 server? | 09:34 |
| vimalg2 | I seem to be doing fine; but i worry about all those people reporting problems | 09:35 |
| Lloyd | Galerien - Not very intuitive but as I said it's still only day 2, I've a lot to learn | 09:35 |
| eipi-1 | conb123, have fun with it, in case you get one ;) | 09:35 |
| Galerien | Lloyd: yes, but you wont be able to go back to windows after a few month | 09:35 |
| Galerien | Lloyd: have you tried to install anything yet ? | 09:36 |
| Lazy^ | barcode: ? | 09:36 |
| Lloyd | Galerien - Fingers crossed, I've been with MS since DOS6.22 and they seem to totally have lost the plot since Win XP. Don't even get me started on the ribbon interface for Office, I hope OO haven't implemented that | 09:36 |
| Lloyd | Galerian - I've already got Spotify running through Wine, I was quite impressed with myself for that. Am I ok calling if from my Windows drive or would I be better installing it in my Ubuntu partition? | 09:37 |
| Galerien | Lloyd: you don't care about it, it's wine so you already lose power, It "might" be better, but... | 09:38 |
| Galerien | Lloyd: Have you tried an line command ? | 09:38 |
| Lloyd | Galerien: I had a feeling I should avoid Wine were possible, however Spotify is Win/Mac only at the moment and I NEED it. | 09:39 |
| conb123 | He's got a point, there is no linux spotify alternative | 09:39 |
| Galerien | Lloyd: Wine is good, don't worry about using it!! | 09:39 |
| Lloyd | Galerien - I've used the "uname -a" command - that's it so far. | 09:39 |
| Talon_ | Lloyd: i find most windows applications i need to run work far better in a virtual environment than wine, have you thought about using virtualbox? | 09:40 |
| pallgone | Lloyd: yeah, wine is perfect (as long as it works :) | 09:40 |
| conb123 | Yes but who is going to start up an entire virtual machine just to run spotify | 09:40 |
| pallgone | conb123: it's not a VM | 09:40 |
| Lloyd | Galerien - In that case I'll have Steam and Counterstrike loaded up soon. Talon - sorry I've not heard of that, I'm only on Day 2 of Linux after 20 years of MS | 09:41 |
| Galerien | Lloyd: wait :D | 09:41 |
| Talon_ | I run a virtual machine mainly for mIRC, although i do use it to check cross-platform builds of my C++ projects too.. | 09:41 |
| Galerien | Lloyd: video games are... complicated | 09:41 |
| conb123 | pallgone: yes it is, talon_ was talking about using virtualbox | 09:41 |
| pallgone | conb123: ah, didn't see that | 09:41 |
| Galerien | Lloyd: check there before trying to use windows application : http://www.winehq.org/ | 09:41 |
| Lloyd | Galerien: I was joking slightly but it's something I will need to do eventually. Thanks for the link. | 09:42 |
| discomfitor | hey just wanted to say to whoever made the xen kernel images/ramdisks for lucid | 09:42 |
| discomfitor | you rule | 09:42 |

| conb123 | oops | 09:42 |
| omfarka | is there anybody? how can i use my headset, when i plug in i couldn't listen anything | 09:42 |
| conb123 | discomfitor: what is the xen kernel? | 09:42 |
| Lloyd | Galerien: Are you serious?? Is there news of that? I know they've only just released a Mac version | 09:43 |
| Jyyx | when i do the installer from boot, it hangs up at splash screen like this http://www.linuxcritic.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/ubuntu-10.04-screenshot-1.jpg only without the ubuntu logo in center, just those icons in bottom, dont get any menu or stuff at all | 09:43 |
| discomfitor | conb123: a kernel for installing ubuntu as a vm in xen | 09:43 |
| omfarka | my device is ATI Technologies Inc IXP SB4x0 High Definition Audio Controller | 09:43 |
| Slartibart | Managed to mount an inserted cd so that I can view the files on it. But then a new problem popped up: The disc name isn't shown/propagated, it's just called cdrom0 in Nautilus f.ex. Can that be changed? | 09:43 |
| Jyyx | any ideas? | 09:44 |
| Galerien | Lloyd: Yep, it's not official but I know an alfa1 is already "working" (working as not crashing, but you won't play with it :s) | 09:44 |
| Galerien | Lloyd: it's intern stuff, so we'll have to wait | 09:45 |

| ubuntu-test | is there any way to remove user switching from the gnome menu? | 09:46 |
| Lloyd | Galerien: Thank you very much - this is only day 2 on IRC as well, I've managed to avoid it for years. You'll love Android, although I hate to say it's nowhere near as smooth as an iphone. Anyway this is OT. Thanks for your help | 09:47 |
| ubuntu-test | is there any way to remove user switching from the gnome menu? , and also the lock screen , where can i edit these menu items, all tips are welcome | 09:47 |
| Galerien | Lloyd: Well, I've heard that the Hero as a lots of HTC crap on it | 09:48 |
| Galerien | and that's why it's slow | 09:48 |
| karmanaught | Okay - just a quick q - i am running Ubuntu 10.04 LTS 32 bit - I downloaded Songbird and I want to be able to run it via a shortcut link without having to run it through the terminal. How do I do this? | 09:48 |

| kjelle | Am I in the right place to ask how I would setup Hudson build server on a Ubuntu to compile C#/silverlight code? | 09:49 |
| pallgone | karmanaught: isn't it in the menu somewhere? just drag it from there | 09:49 |
| wildbat_laptop | karmanaught, right click on desktop and create launcher | 09:49 |
| arand | kjelle: Either here or #ubuntu-server (which is more specialised but potentially more quiet of a channel) | 09:50 |
| ubuntu-test | Songbird, maybe make an sh script that runs ./Songbird? | 09:50 |
| karmanaught | No, it's not in the menu as it's not "installed" through apt-get. It was just a tarball with a folder containing the necessary files | 09:50 |
| Somelauw | test | 09:50 |
| Somelauw | Stupid question | 09:50 |
| kjelle | arand: okey. | 09:50 |
| ubuntu-test | and then make an icon fast starter | 09:50 |
| ubuntu-test | that runs the script | 09:50 |
| ubuntu-test | ? | 09:50 |
| ubuntu-test | is there any way to remove user switching from the gnome menu? , and also the lock screen , where can i edit these menu items, all tips are welcome | 09:51 |
| karmanaught | I can run through the terminal by navigating to the folder and running ./songbird | 09:51 |
| Somelauw | How to start a program? | 09:51 |
| kjelle | I guess I need mono+moonlight, and thus im not using Silverlight 4 any more. So I actually might need to have a MS Windows Server to run my build on :p | 09:51 |
| Somelauw | I am using gnome and installed plt-scheme | 09:51 |
| eipi-1 | histo, thanks for your help, it was all about some configuration failure in /etc/default/tftpd-hpa | 09:51 |
| Somelauw | But I don't know how to open it. | 09:51 |
| well_laid_lawn | Somelauw: use the ctrl_f2 keys then type the name of it or open a terminal | 09:51 |
| karmanaught | could try a script | 09:52 |
| well_laid_lawn | Somelauw: oops that should be alt+f2 | 09:52 |
| Somelauw | I don't know how the program has called itself. | 09:52 |
| ubuntu-test | bine bash | 09:52 |
| ubuntu-test | hmm got to go bye | 09:52 |
| Somelauw | Can I explore a linuxvariant of programfiles? | 09:52 |
| well_laid_lawn | Somelauw: the dir /usr/bin is like the equivelant | 09:53 |

| karmanaught | @pallgone - tried that already, it won't run | 09:54 |

| ngirard | Hi all. I'm using ubuntu 9.10. For whatever reason, osd notifications are broken. IM messages from both Empathy and Pidgin don't show up, neither does the LCD backlight gauge when I modify the luminosity of my screen. Any ideas ? | 09:55 |
| Somelauw | Okay, it seems like the program called itself drscheme. | 09:56 |
| Somelauw | Thanks, I found it. | 09:56 |
| pallgone | karmanaught: make a symlink to /usr/bin like so: cd to /usr/bin, enter 'ln -s /<full path> | 09:56 |
| karmanaught | okay - nm - it works now | 09:56 |
| Slartibart | When I remount a cd the disc name won't show, the disc is just called "cdrom0". How come? | 09:56 |

| slimjimflim | hi i've got a 82845G/GL[Brookdale-G]/GE Chipset Integrated Graphics Device (rev 01) on ubuntu lucid and the screen randomly (apparently) starts flashing back and forth between black and black w/ some white lines. the only way to get out is to reboot. | 09:57 |
| slimjimflim | i'm pretty sure this is a driver issue, but i can't find the linux driver for it on intel's site or at http://intellinuxgraphics.org/index.html | 09:57 |

| slimjimflim | but i get this: http://pastebin.com/69kEvx0B | 09:58 |
| well_laid_lawn | slimjimflim: sounds like the refresh rate for the monitor is wrong | 09:58 |
| slimjimflim | hmm good idea | 09:59 |
| MindVirus | pallgone: I want to absorb frequencies from either the built-in microphone on my laptop or from the mic port. | 09:59 |
| slimjimflim | well_laid_lawn: it's really hard to test though since it happens so sporatically | 09:59 |
| pallgone | MindVirus: absorb = record? | 10:00 |
| MindVirus | pallgone: Yes. | 10:00 |
| pallgone | MindVirus: enable mic boost, set capture to mic, go | 10:00 |

| slimjimflim | yea | 10:07 |
| riz0n | {BG}Barbarian by clicking the double-computers in the top right corner and selecting your ethernet connection should do it | 10:07 |

| ActionParsnip | alktors: so the system hung entirely? | 13:08 |
| alktors | ActionParsnip, Yes sir. | 13:08 |
| FyreFoX | phlak_user: upon boot it asked for an encryption passphrase before it would proceed. I figured this meant the whole system was encrypted.. | 13:08 |

| phlak_user | FyreFoX: only your home folder | 13:09 |

| PrototypeX29A | jrib: yes, but apt complained about duplicate entries | 13:11 |
| ActionParsnip | broonsparrow: set the res to 1024x768 and click "Save to X config file" and then "Quit". You can then run: gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and manually change the resolution line in the screen section | 13:11 |
| Night_Elf | Gump_lucid: read above | 13:11 |
| antonio_ | phlak_user, so what can i do? no way to recover my datas? | 13:11 |
| blue_anna | why is firefox eating up so much cpu? if I go to a page with a flash video it will push firefox up to ~60% cpu -- my pc is old, but it's not -that- old | 13:11 |
| jrib | PrototypeX29A: remove those? Run « sudo dpkg --configure -a » | 13:12 |
| ActionParsnip | blue_anna: because its a crappy browser | 13:12 |
| blue_anna | that's not even playing the flash video, it's just in the wait state | 13:12 |
| Night_Elf | Gump_lucid: you need to replace where apropriate with the ip of the namserver you are using | 13:12 |
| broonsparrow | thanks all. I'll try that. Any idea why it would have been working fine last night but not today? I hadn't changed anything or even installed any updates. | 13:12 |
| phlak_user | antonio_: there are some shops which will help with that. but first, mount it in a windows system and run chkdsk or whatever it is that they use | 13:12 |
| ActionParsnip | alktors: if you use the keyboard preferences you can re-enable CTRL+ALT+BackSpace. Next time it hangs, restart the X server and then read logs etc. | 13:12 |
| blue_anna | I think this is going to be loaded enough of a topic, I'll just head over to #ubuntu-ot right now | 13:13 |
| ActionParsnip | blue_anna: could try the mozilla ppa | 13:13 |
| antonio_ | ok, i'll try on a windows pc, it's ok if i do that on a VM with windows? | 13:13 |
| blue_anna | ActionParsnip: well, I have a powerpc-smp arcitechture | 13:13 |
| alktors | ActionParsnip, Ahhh let's see if I understand you exactly...if I use CTRL+Alt+backspace I restart X? | 13:13 |
| phlak_user | antonio_: i dont know too much about windows to advise you | 13:13 |
| antonio_ | ok, thank you so much! | 13:13 |
| ActionParsnip | broonsparrow: not sure, I always use that method for oddball resolutions. xorg.conf is tried and tested but can help the situation lots by generating one ;) | 13:13 |
| alktors | ActionParsnip, Or I need to enable this option first. | 13:13 |
| alktors | ActionParsnip, By the way were do I check for the logs, I'm a beginner user. | 13:14 |
| blue_anna | ActionParsnip: so basically every optional ppa registry doesn't work for me | 13:14 |
| ActionParsnip | alktors: you will need to re-enable it, then when the system hangs it may just be the desktop which has hung and not the entire OS | 13:14 |
| ActionParsnip | blue_anna: i see | 13:14 |
| ActionParsnip | !info arora | 13:14 |

| ActionParsnip | blue_anna: could try arora | 13:15 |
| Night_Elf | Gump_lucid: one way to find what your nameserver is to see from a DIFFERENT command terminal (not the one you are chrooted in) the same command: cat /etc/resolv.conf | 13:15 |
| wildbat | antonio_, do chkdsk /f from windows or ntfsfix in linux | 13:15 |
| alktors | ActionParsnip, Keyboard shortcuts? | 13:15 |
| ActionParsnip | alktors: system -> preferences -> keyboard | 13:15 |

| Gump_lucid | ok, i got the ip address | 13:16 |
| alktors | ActionParsnip, Thanks so much...and were are the logs? | 13:16 |
| Night_Elf | Gump_lucid: so give: echo nameserver ip.of.nameserver.here > /etc/resolv.conf | 13:16 |
| ActionParsnip | broonsparrow: did you run: gksudo nvidia-settings then lick save to x config file, do not use Auto so you have actual numbers to change | 13:16 |
| broonsparrow | ah right - got it | 13:16 |
| Gump_lucid | night_elf: in the chrooted terminal? | 13:16 |
| ActionParsnip | broonsparrow: I did say that earlier.... | 13:17 |
| Night_Elf | Gump_lucid: this last one goes in the chrooted window. Remember, the chrooted terminal is behaving AS IF in your ubuntu installation on the disk | 13:17 |
| ActionParsnip | alktors: /var/log/Xorg.0.log is a good place if its just the X server which hung | 13:17 |
| antonio_ | wildbat, i'll try with ntfsfix | 13:17 |
| p1l0t | When I try to play an SWF (interactive flash) file I get this GStreamer encountered a general supporting library error. I checked the forum and the bugs, but I got more confused | 13:18 |
| Gump_lucid | night_elf: i ran it, and it does not return anything | 13:18 |
| Night_Elf | Gump_lucid: now you should have a line with a namserver inside /etc/resolv.conf | 13:18 |
| alktors | ActionParsnip, Ohhh I found it, thanks. | 13:18 |
| ironfroggy_ | What would cause iwconfig essid XXX to not actually set the essid? | 13:19 |

| BananaBoat | hi~ i am wondering does anyone know whats the difference between the NETBOOK version and the DESKTOP version? | 13:21 |
| pure_hate | ironfroggy_, if you bring the interface down it will clear the settings created by iwconfig | 13:21 |
| Gump_lucid | Can not write log, openpty() failed (/dev/pts not mounted?) | 13:22 |
| Gump_lucid | Selecting previously deselected package grub-common. | 13:22 |
| wildbat | antonio_, sudo ntfsfix /dev/sdb1 | 13:22 |
| Gump_lucid | and from there it installed normally, or so it seemed | 13:22 |
| BananaBoat | i am trying to install ubuntu onto my old pentium III and i am wondering which one is better! (netbook ver or desktop ver) | 13:22 |
| ironfroggy_ | pure_hate: right but its forgetting the essid when i bring it back UP | 13:22 |
| bazhang | BananaBoat, one is designed for smaller screens, lots of big icons and less configurable | 13:22 |
| ActionParsnip | blue_anna: gotcha :) if it works for you run with it dude | 13:23 |
| ironfroggy_ | so that it never has the essid when i actually try to use it | 13:23 |
| Night_Elf | Gump_lucid: we don't care for the logs right now, as long as the installation is ok | 13:23 |
| BananaBoat | •bazhang• really? | 13:23 |
| antonio_ | wildbat, i tried that too: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/N3V0NDid | 13:23 |
| broonsparrow | actionparsnip: yeah i did it before. Still no resolution and when I run nvidia settings again it's reverted to auto again | 13:23 |
| p1l0t | Oh flash is propietary.. I don't even want it anymore | 13:23 |
| bazhang | BananaBoat, yes, regular notebook use regular ubuntu | 13:23 |
| Night_Elf | Gump_lucid: so what is now inside that boot/grub directory we checked earlier ? | 13:23 |
| ActionParsnip | blue_anna: I suggest you edit the menu item in alacarte to make that the default action ;) | 13:23 |
| pure_hate | ironfroggy_, Like I said if you bring a interface all the way down you have to reset all the connection stuff including the essid | 13:23 |
| pure_hate | Thats normal | 13:23 |
| arunkumar413 | hi,i just installed ubuntu 10.04 and would like to update my network manager | 13:23 |
| broonsparrow | actionparsnip: there is a line " Option "metamodes" "1024x768 +0+0"" should I change that one? | 13:23 |
| BananaBoat | •bazhang• for my old pentium III should i try the desktop version or the netbook version? | 13:23 |
| blue_anna | ActionParsnip: ty | 13:23 |
| bazhang | BananaBoat, regular | 13:24 |
| Gump_lucid | Night_Elf: even more .mod files | 13:24 |
| bazhang | arunkumar413, update to what | 13:24 |
| BananaBoat | bazhang, thanks alot =) | 13:24 |
| ironfroggy_ | pure_hate: i know. thats what im trying to do. | 13:24 |
| Gump_lucid | is there one i am looking for in particular? | 13:24 |
| ActionParsnip | broonsparrow: yes thats the one, change it to the resolution you want, save the new file, close gedit and reboot | 13:24 |

| Night_Elf | Gump_lucid: I would think there would be a menu.lst file. Hmmm. | 13:25 |

| Gump_lucid | it has "title Windows | 13:25 |
| Gump_lucid | root (hd0,0) | 13:25 |
| Gump_lucid | chainloader +1" in it | 13:25 |
| pure_hate | ironfroggy_, Are you setting the essid with iwconfig? i.e. iwconfig wlan0 essid linksys | 13:25 |
| wildbat | antonio_, ntfsfix can fix SOME but not all the problem of ntfs | 13:25 |
| Night_Elf | Questtion: Does 10.04 use grub or grub2 ? | 13:25 |
| bazhang | rileyp, using sudo blkid ? | 13:25 |
| lubcat | 2 | 13:25 |
| Gump_lucid | but i believe that is left over from me trying to fix it when i uninstalled it... | 13:25 |
| bazhang | Night_Elf, 2 | 13:25 |
| rileyp | bazhang, | 13:25 |
| rileyp | how | 13:25 |
| ironfroggy_ | pure_hate: yes, and then i do `iwconfig wlan1` right after to see if it took effect, and it doesnt list it | 13:25 |
| antonio_ | stupid ntfs file system... anyway thanks wildbat | 13:26 |
| arunkumar413 | bazhang:i dont know the version.but i cannot connect to the internet with the present version | 13:26 |
| p1l0t | !swfdec | 13:26 |
| bazhang | arunkumar413, what version of Ubuntu | 13:26 |
| pure_hate | ironfroggy_, what happens when you try to get a dddress? | 13:26 |
| bazhang | p1l0t, tried vlc for that? | 13:26 |
| arunkumar413 | bazhang:10.4 | 13:26 |
| phlak_user | arunkumar413: is the problem with the NetworkManager or the driver for your hardware | 13:26 |
| p1l0t | bazhang, what is vlc? | 13:26 |
| bazhang | arunkumar413, what is the specific issue | 13:26 |
| Gump_lucid | Night_elf: i am almost sure i'm using grub legacy because i started out with ubuntu jaunty 9 and upgraded to 10.04 lucid | 13:26 |
| Night_Elf | Gump_lucid: well... I don't know much about grub2. What you can try to do is then see if the installation is good. We'll ask bazhang | 13:26 |
| bazhang | p1l0t, a nice media player, in the repositories | 13:26 |
| rileyp | baz how can i remove the pv above as its called Unknown device | 13:27 |
| Night_Elf | bazhang: What would install apt-get install grub | 13:27 |
| phlak_user | !info vlc | p1l0t | 13:27 |
| ubottu | p1l0t: vlc (source: vlc): multimedia player and streamer. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.0.6-1ubuntu1.1 (lucid), package size 1598 kB, installed size 3792 kB | 13:27 |
| Night_Elf | bazhang: grub or grub2 | 13:27 |
| arunkumar413 | bazhang: when i try to connect it says "offline,u r disconnected" | 13:27 |
| rileyp | so i can i rm -rf blkid (etc) | 13:27 |
| p1l0t | Thanks I will check that out | 13:27 |
| phlak_user | arunkumar413: do a rightclick and see if "networking" is selected (enabled) | 13:27 |
| ironfroggy_ | pure_hate: No DHCPOFFERS received. | 13:27 |
| bazhang | arunkumar413, sounds like a configuration problem, not a bug | 13:27 |
| arunkumar413 | bazhang:i'm using wireless CDMA 1x huawei EC325 modem | 13:27 |
| nestor | hola | 13:28 |
| phlak_user | arunkumar413: with reliance? | 13:28 |
| nestor | alguien en spanish | 13:28 |
| phlak_user | !es | nestor | 13:28 |
| ubottu | nestor: 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. | 13:28 |
| bazhang | Night_Elf, checked the grub2 wiki yet? | 13:28 |
| alexwizard | hello | 13:28 |
| ironfroggy_ | pure_hate: but i wouldnt expect to, since it doesnt seem to be using the right (or any) essid. wouldnt that be the expected behavior of dhclient without an essid set? | 13:28 |
| Night_Elf | Gump_lucid: normal grub does have a menu.lst file, which you dont | 13:28 |
| arunkumar413 | phlk_user:no bsnl cdma | 13:28 |
| pure_hate | ironfroggy_, are you sure your adapter is supported? Does it work with one of the GUI wifi manager things? | 13:29 |
| Gump_lucid | night_elf: i do have a menu.lst file | 13:29 |
| arunkumar413 | phlak:no,iam using bsnl | 13:29 |
| maeon31 | I have a flat data file with sensitive data in it, we want to be able to encrypt specific lines out of it, is it a reasonable task to go about trying to encrypt specific lines out of the file? | 13:29 |
| Gump_lucid | night_elf: i had it before i uninstalled too. it was just blank | 13:29 |
| Night_Elf | Gump_lucid: and now ? | 13:29 |
| bazhang | Gump_lucid, lucid? | 13:30 |
| Gump_lucid | and now it has title Windows | 13:30 |
| Gump_lucid | root (hd0,0) | 13:30 |
| Gump_lucid | chainloader +1 in it | 13:30 |
| arunkumar413 | bzhang:how to update my network manager | 13:30 |
| Gump_lucid | but i believe that i put that there myself before i uninstalled it and that is just left over | 13:30 |
| bazhang | arunkumar413, you dont. you configure it properly | 13:30 |
| Night_Elf | Gump_lucid: is it possible to open that file, copy it all and paste it at the place of before ? | 13:30 |
| datacrusher | i have lots or problems regarding nm-applet on lucid too arunkumar413 | 13:30 |
| arunkumar413 | bzhang:i configured it properly, | 13:30 |
| ironfroggy_ | pure_hate: yes i am sure and yes it works with the GUI | 13:31 |
| Gump_lucid | sure. but what i pasted there is exactly what it looks like | 13:31 |
| Slartibart | My installation program asks for cd #2, and if I insert it and run "mount -o remount,loop /dev/scd0" in terminal the program recognizes the disc. loop device is needed or only garbage files are shown. But afterwards the program asks for cd #1 again, and then that mount command doesn't help. Could it be that I somehow have to reset/umount the loop device? | 13:31 |
| bazhang | arunkumar413, paste.ubuntu.com the output of ifconfig | 13:31 |
| datacrusher | it just dont appear sometimes i boot the pc | 13:31 |
| Night_Elf | Gump_lucid: hmmm. In that case, maybe someone might hint the proper way to recreate the menu.lst file in Ubuntu | 13:31 |
| Gump_lucid | http://pastebin.com/BQASaS3f | 13:31 |
| bazhang | arunkumar413, dont paste in the channel | 13:31 |
| ironfroggy_ | pure_hate: My video card fried, which is why I'm now trying to get it working from a shell, so i can just get some work down while i wait for a new card | 13:31 |
| pure_hate | ironfroggy_, Dont know then, I always set my interfaces as root and not sudo although technincly its the same thing | 13:32 |
| Gump_lucid | night_elf: do you think it being wiped is why windows stopped booting? | 13:32 |
| Gump_lucid | if so, i might just try and install grub2 and see if it fixes everything | 13:32 |
| pure_hate | ironfroggy_, I bet I know what the issue is | 13:32 |
| ironfroggy_ | oh? | 13:32 |
| pure_hate | ironfroggy_, You have to stop all the gui stuff or it wont work | 13:32 |
| wildbat | Slartibart, you can try force umount it and mount the cd1 | 13:32 |
| phlak_user | arunkumar413: this might help you --> http://outbackwifi.blogspot.com/2009/06/howto-connect-to-internet-using-zte-ac.html | 13:32 |
| Night_Elf | Gump: you can do that. But I don't know much about grub2 though. I use normal grub | 13:32 |
| ironfroggy_ | pure_hate: well that stuff isnt running, because i cant start X | 13:33 |
| pure_hate | ironfroggy_, I belive its /etc/init.d/networkmanager or something | 13:33 |
| Slartibart | wildbat: "it" as in /dev/loop0? Or /dev/scd0? | 13:33 |
| pure_hate | thast starts before X | 13:33 |
| Night_Elf | Gump_lucid: you can do that. But I don't know much about grub2 though. I use normal grub | 13:33 |
| Gump_lucid | night_elf: do you think just deleting all grub files and then installing it again will properly set up the menu.lst? | 13:33 |
| pure_hate | ironfroggy_, whatever the background proccess for the gnome wifi manager is, you have to stop it | 13:33 |
| Gump_lucid | or is that something you have to manually do no matter what? | 13:33 |
| wildbat | Slartibart, it as that mount point of the cdrom | 13:33 |
| Night_Elf | Gump_lucid: I'm verifying that. I THINK there's something else involved. let me see | 13:34 |
| Night_Elf | Gump_lucid: just a sec | 13:34 |
| BluesKaj | grub2 is installed but I'm not getting a menu altho i do have the timeout set for 5 secs | 13:34 |
| phlak_user | Gump_lucid: grub2 does not use menu.lst; check out /etc/defaul/grub and /boot/grub/grub.cfg | 13:34 |
| ironfroggy_ | pure_hate: i could kiss you | 13:34 |
| arunkumar413 | bzhang:here is the output of the command ifconfig http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/RABUfXNc | 13:34 |
| ironfroggy_ | I'll say thank you, instead! | 13:34 |
| Night_Elf | Gump_lucid: what gives this: dpkg -l grub | tail -1 | 13:35 |
| pure_hate | ironfroggy_, np, glad to help | 13:35 |
| Gump_lucid | night_elf: looks like the install of grub i did a few minutes ago is grub2 after all. there is a grub.cfg and it is full of data | 13:35 |
| Night_Elf | Gump_lucid: what gives this: dpkg -l grub* | tail -1 | 13:35 |
| mindoverflow | hi | 13:35 |
| Gump_lucid | "root@ubuntu:/# dpkg -l grub* | tail -1 | 13:36 |

| alexwizard | what do you think, what is the best distribution of linux for my computer Duron 650 Mhz, Video 32 Mb, 256 Ram ? | 13:36 |
| phlak_user | alexwizard: puppylinux | 13:36 |
| iceroot | alexwizard: the one you can handle best, i am running ubuntu on 630mhz, 16mb vga, 512mb ram | 13:36 |
| Gump_lucid | alexwizard: a very small one | 13:36 |
| phlak_user | arunkumar413: that shows you are connected and on the internet! | 13:36 |
| Night_Elf | Gump_lucid: I'd say you have grub and not grub2. You're always giving these commands from the chroot terminal, correct ? | 13:36 |
| bazhang | arunkumar413, you have an eth0 and a ppp0 ; are you using an ethernet cable connected to a router? some other set up? what does sudo dhclient eth0 return (paste.ubuntu.com the output) | 13:37 |
| Gump_lucid | night_elf: correct | 13:37 |
| iceroot | alexwizard: maybe try lubuntu-desktop | 13:37 |
| arunkumar413 | bazhang:yes i connected,but not using network manager,but using wvdial | 13:37 |
| Gump_lucid | night_elf: grub does not have a grub.cfg does it? | 13:37 |
| mindoverflow | i need to copy some sgi irix cds content, and as far as i know ubuntu doesn't support efs | 13:37 |

| sokeman | has anyone got a touch screen running in lucid?? | 13:38 |
| Night_Elf | Gump_lucid: I'd think so yea. You can verify with: dpkg -l grub* | 13:38 |
| phlak_user | bazhang: he is connected via cdma/gprs modem | 13:38 |
| alexwizard | i installed ubuntu 10.04, but computer is very slow work | 13:38 |
| bazhang | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DialupModemHowto arunkumar413 check this | 13:38 |
| Night_Elf | Gump_lucid: it will tell you what all grub related you have | 13:38 |
| arunkumar413 | phlak_user:u r correct | 13:38 |
| broonsparrow | actionparsnip: still no luck. it's still displaying at 1024x748 even thought I've changed the figures in the conf file. (the conf file has the correct resolution and I've restarted) | 13:38 |
| bazhang | phlak_user, I've no experience with cdma | 13:38 |
| Gump_lucid | grub and grub-common are the only two installed | 13:38 |
| Gump_lucid | you were right | 13:39 |
| sokeman | has anyone got a touch screen running in lucid?? | 13:39 |
| etale | hi all -- im using an ubuntu live USB to write zeroes to a hard drive, but before the dd can finish, it quits with a message "Killed"... which is unusual, if i try it again, i get the "Killed" message almost immediately... I want to add that i suspect that this HD might be damaged (the computer is very new, and hasn't been dropped or anything... but the HD is really resisting an ubuntu install ; i tried with several ubuntu releases, by CD, DVD, usb install, no | 13:39 |
| phlak_user | bazhang: thats why i pointed him to my blog but then again... | 13:39 |
| mickster04 | hey is there a way to create a guest user that mounts it's home directory in temp so that it gets reset every reboot? | 13:39 |
| mickster04 | sorry, every log out* | 13:39 |
| arunkumar413 | bazhang:for the device i use username,password and dialing numner are needed that's all | 13:39 |
| Night_Elf | Gump_lucid: let me see how can we recreate that menu.lst file. I knew it but forgot how to .... | 13:39 |
| phlak_user | mickster04: you can change the home directory of the user | 13:40 |
| mindoverflow | sgi irix cd (efs) how to mount ??? | 13:40 |
| bazhang | arunkumar413, sorry I have no idea about dialup | 13:40 |
| mickster04 | phlak_user: don't suppose u can link me a guide? | 13:40 |
| phlak_user | arunkumar413: can you pastebin output of /var/log/daemon.log when you try to connect with Network Namager? | 13:40 |
| arunkumar413 | bazhang:i think updating the network manager will solve the problem | 13:40 |

| yoritomo | problem with grub2, after a update-grub and grub-install my menu is complete but when i try to boot my old karmic, or windows i have a black screen without prompt or any messages | 13:40 |

| obscurant1st_ | now i have a problm with my resolution i tried doing things from the X/Config/Resolution but no luck, can somebody help me on this: http://pastie.org/977785 | 13:41 |
| bazhang | arunkumar413, you have the most recent version | 13:41 |
| Night_Elf | yoritomo: Gump_lucid: you have the EXACT same problem | 13:41 |
| phlak_user | mickster04: just go to System-Administration-Users and Groups; Advanced Setting-Advanced Tab lets you change home directory | 13:41 |
| arunkumar413 | bazhang: just today i received the cd | 13:41 |
| mickster04 | phlak_user: oh awesome:D | 13:41 |
| arunkumar413 | bazhang:and did'nt do any update | 13:42 |
| bazhang | arunkumar413, then sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get upgrade ; that will give you the most recent. | 13:42 |
| yoritomo | Night_Elf is it knew as an official bug ? | 13:42 |
| Gump_lucid | night_elf: i've seen several posts on various forums with this problem, all seem to be related to grub-grub2 or linux update | 13:42 |
| Gump_lucid | but no solutions... | 13:42 |
| arunkumar413 | bazhang:but i want to update only network manager | 13:42 |
| Night_Elf | Gump_lucid: I have to be afk for a few minutes. back after a few. And so then, I'd stay away from grub2. yoritomo: see what Gump_lucid said | 13:43 |
| phlak_user | arunkumar413: if you know the solution to your problem, why ask? | 13:43 |
| bazhang | arunkumar413, that won't happen from the ubuntu repositories, and that wont fix your issue | 13:43 |

| arunkumar413 | bazhnag:but it may take a long time coz my net connection is very slow | 13:44 |
| wildbat_laptop | yoritomo, Night_Elf you may have installed grub in /dev/sda1 instead of /dev/sda that overwrite the windows boot sector | 13:44 |
| Gump_lucid | yoritomo: why did you upgrade to grub2? | 13:44 |
| arunkumar413 | bazhang:that's why i asked for updating only network manager | 13:44 |
| bazhang | arunkumar413, then take your time, this channel will still be here when you are finished | 13:44 |
| yoritomo | wildbat_laptop, not in my case, and anyway karmic does not starts neither | 13:45 |

| lubcat | nitish_mythology: agree with bazhang | 13:48 |
| rileyp | bazhang, there is nothing on the disk | 13:48 |

| mcl0vin | ciphergoth: ok i had to reinstall OS, and thats why i am getting this error, do i put the old host name or the new one? | 14:30 |
| ActionParsnip | !crunchbang | hora | 14:30 |
| ubottu | hora: There are some Ubuntu derivatives that we cannot provide support for due to repository and software changes. Please consult their websites for more information.

| ciphergoth | mcl0vin: quote me the exact error you're seeing | 14:30 |
| ActionParsnip | hora: crunchbang support is in #crunchbang | 14:30 |

| khannz | Hi guys, who can help me a little? after using 'gem install rails' and report about success I still got nothing when trying to use Rails.... | 14:32 |
| ActionParsnip | hora: if you expect support from the official channel you need to have an official release from canonical | 14:32 |

| contents | Trion: thanks. The stick mounts on one ubuntu installation, but it won't automount on an old laptop that I just installed lucid on | 14:33 |
| Trion | contents: Hmmmm.. | 14:33 |
| contents | Trion: The stick shows up in gparted, but not on the desktop, and not in /media | 14:33 |
| Trion | contents: Did you use the USB creator in lucid to make it? | 14:33 |
| McGoofy | anybody here who uses EBOX ? | 14:34 |
| Trion | contents: try ejecting it and putting it back in, that normally works for me | 14:34 |

| resno | McGoofy: what about it? | 14:34 |
| contents | Trion: No, it's just data. An NTFS partition and a ext4 partition | 14:34 |
| Trion | contents: Ah gotcha | 14:34 |
| McGoofy | I have installed Ebox (official CD). runs ok. | 14:34 |
| Trion | contents: Should be a way to force mount it | 14:35 |

| yoritomo | Gump_lucid i am back | 14:36 |
| Fjodor | Let me rephrase: I chose the Radiance theme - things changed, but not the window decorations. Buttons are the same as before upgrade, and they are placed as before the upgrade. Any idea (ubuntu-tweak and gconf-editor both report that things should look different, but they don't...)? | 14:36 |
| phlak_user | Fjodor: dunno, I have compiz-decorator | 14:36 |
| Gump_lucid | yoritomo: i had all but given up hope! | 14:36 |
| Gump_lucid | what is the result? | 14:36 |
| anonymouse_ | Hi guys, how do I keep my screen from going blank after 5 minutes, I tried messing around in Power Management, but it won't work. | 14:36 |

| yoritomo | not really good news, the reinstallation enable me to boot on karmic, but no more lucid, and windows still black screen | 14:37 |

| madmarco | hi there, how can I install a latex package on karmic? | 14:37 |
| ActionParsnip | anonymouse_: if all else fails you can set it in xorg.conf if you have the file | 14:38 |

| madmarco | like alphadin | 14:38 |
| Gump_lucid | yoritomo: looks like i'm just gonna erase my disk entirely and start with a fresh lucid install | 14:38 |
| Trion | madmarco: use apt-cache search latex to see additional latex packages | 14:38 |
| Trion | ;) | 14:38 |
| madmarco | latex itself is already installed | 14:38 |
| madmarco | hmm =) | 14:38 |
| yoritomo | Gump_lucid, i am sad to say it will not resolve anything looks like a bug | 14:39 |

| yoritomo | Gimp_lucid not really what i mean, because relative to other ubuntu partitions too :s | 14:40 |
| Trion | cojage: its not a hardware problem its a settings problem | 14:40 |
| Cojage | trion i tried that | 14:40 |
| Trion | cojage: always happens to me every install | 14:40 |
| Trion | hmm.. | 14:41 |
| Cojage | but its a conextant, not intel hda | 14:41 |
| Trion | Cojage: Hmmm... | 14:41 |
| Cojage | i also tried editing modprobe.d, no change | 14:41 |
| Trion | Cojage: You can always try muting sound from the main speakers | 14:41 |
| blue_anna | why does firefox cause Xorg to chew processing cycles like mad? | 14:41 |
| Trion | Cojage: I always do that in the mixer | 14:41 |
| Cojage | trion i tried that but there is no seperate slider in the mixer for me :o | 14:41 |
| Fjodor | phlak_user: Hmmm, for me, compiz-decorator starts gtk-window-decorator, which is also the only possibility shown in fusion-icon... | 14:41 |
| Cojage | seperate slider for the headphone i mean | 14:42 |
| Trion | Cojage: You can always install kmix if you're desperate xD | 14:42 |

| Trion | mime: just install it via wine with ie4linux | 14:43 |
| mime | u mean installing one by one the dlls etc? | 14:43 |
| Trion | mime: no | 14:43 |
| mime | ok | 14:43 |
| Trion | mime: just google ie4linux | 14:43 |
| Trion | mime: its a complete installer | 14:43 |
| yoritomo | Gimp_lucid, did you grab some more informations during that time ? | 14:43 |
| mime | so i get the installer and runit with win? | 14:43 |
| Trion | mime: should do the trick ;) | 14:43 |
| Trion | mime: no it runs in ubuntu | 14:43 |

| blue_anna | why does firefox cause Xorg to chew processing cycles like mad? -- isnt that a bug from dapper, not lucid? | 14:44 |
| mime | ok | 14:44 |
| Trion | mime: You installed it to the wrong path | 14:44 |
| LjL | rosenth: have you only changed the partition type, or did you convert the filesystem? | 14:44 |
| mime | thnx trion | 14:44 |

That will go to the external disk too, and will be fed-in once the new installation is complete. This way, both systems, old and new, will have an EXACT list of the software you had installed, provided you have used the repositories. | 15:27 |

| acovrig | whodat, is there anything about it in gconf-editor? | 15:31 |
| sebsebseb | whodat: do you use the social networking feature on the top right, or use it for instant messengers? | 15:31 |
| noukist | sebsebseb | 15:31 |
| noukist | tahnks man | 15:31 |
| Night_Elf | n8w: no problem. But the idea is simple, there are 3 steps involved. | 15:31 |
| noukist | i love u :D | 15:31 |

| sebsebseb | noukist: sorted out your problem then? | 15:32 |
| noukist | yeap ! :)) | 15:32 |
| sebsebseb | whodat: right and you don't use Facebook or Twitter either? | 15:32 |
| sebsebseb | whodat: or anything like that | 15:32 |
| joshj | it's not that it's not working. i just can't find any software that will let me view the video in. | 15:32 |
| whodat | nope | 15:32 |
| sebsebseb | whodat: ok then | 15:32 |
| sebsebseb | whodat: I have a great idea for you | 15:32 |
| Night_Elf | n8w: 1. Home dir gets backed up. 2. /etc gets backed up. 3a. The software list is generated in the old system and then 3b. is fed-in the new system to get the exact softwares into it. | 15:32 |

| === alan__ is now known as Yufei | ||

| Night_Elf | n8w: yes. You see, all settings are in 'hidden' files or folders. These are all that start with a "." (dot). You can check yourself. Go to your home folder and either do a "ls -a" in command line, either use the CTRL-H keystroke in the GUI (gnome) | 15:43 |

| LjL | sirninja: uhm, your laptop fan certainly has a sensor - the question is who is supposed to manage fan *speed* after checking the sensor, whether the BIOS, or the operating system. if it's the operating system, then i'm afraid Linux has no such facility, at least by default | 16:07 |
| pozic | theadmin: by that I mean, when I start an application from the desktop, I want it to be able to access the environment variables defined in .profile. | 16:07 |

| Slart | lolmac: there is a gconf-setting you have to set now, they removed the little pen icon | 16:31 |
| aeon-ltd | tweep: was this the correct driver | 16:31 |
| Kentrel | How do I see the standard output? I want to be able to see the error messages from some programs, without having to always start them from the console | 16:31 |
| Slart | lolmac: hang on.. let me see if I can find it again | 16:31 |
| tweep | yes, i think so | 16:31 |
| Night_Elf | Slart: they did remove the pencil? WHY ? | 16:32 |
| aeon-ltd | Kentrel: its in ctrl-alt-f1 isn't it? | 16:32 |
| Slart | Night_Elf: I have no idea.. I liked it the way it was | 16:32 |
| lolmac | but is possible to write without the pencil, with some shortcurt of some sort? | 16:32 |
| Kentrel | aeon, I just get a login screen | 16:32 |
| aeon-ltd | Kentrel: whatever vt you logged into has the errors log | 16:32 |
| lolmac | i don't really need the pencil, just any way to write/copy/cut the information on the hardrive adress bar on file browser | 16:33 |
| Night_Elf | Slart: of course. I liked it too. What on earth goes on some people's minds, especially the ubuntu makers? The address bar was so handy! | 16:33 |
| Kentrel | aeon, I just login to gnome using the graphical interface | 16:33 |
| arunkumar413 | i cant install pyton-xmpp module from terminal | 16:33 |
| aeon-ltd | Kentrel: then you can just use the files in /var/log | 16:34 |
| Slart | lolmac: open a terminal and run "gconf-editor", click on "Apps", then "Nautilus", then "Preferences" and put a checkbox in the item named "always_use_location_entry"... it should change right away.. no ok button to click or anything | 16:34 |
| Night_Elf | lolmac: I kow what you mean, but how I use it (I still do, I have Debian right now) is using that pencil thing. | 16:34 |
| Slart | Night_Elf: I think you'll have to blame the gnome people.. I doubt it's an ubuntu-only "feature" | 16:34 |
| Night_Elf | Slart: so if needed to go back to buttons mode, back again to gcong ? | 16:34 |
| onetinsoldier | Ctrl+L will also bring up the address bar on a one session basis | 16:34 |
| Slart | Night_Elf: yes, and remove the checkbox again | 16:34 |
| tweep | this was how i got the driver: http://www.ubuntumini.com/2009/11/broadcom-wireless-driver-fix-in-karmic.html | 16:35 |
| Slart | Night_Elf: you could probably write a small script just to toggle that bit if you really want to | 16:35 |
| sinux | Is there a better way to backup ubuntu than remastersys | 16:35 |
| Night_Elf | Slart: well... I have debian 5.0.4 as of now. I still have the pencil ... | 16:35 |

| ActionParsnip | p1l0t: pwd | 16:56 |
| Acorn | ActionParsnip: it's a hard drive, it stays in my computer and I don't touch it | 16:56 |
| friendishan | Night_elf: ? | 16:56 |
| p1l0t | thanks ActionParsnip | 16:56 |
| Night_Elf | Acorn: they are in the form /dev/sda1 /dev/sda2 and so on | 16:56 |
| friendishan | Night_elf: where to do what? jdps | 16:57 |
| tweep | i really dont know Night Elf | 16:57 |
| ActionParsnip | Acorn: ok thats cool if you never detatch it its fine | 16:57 |
| Acorn | ActionParsnip: I have 3 of them, one I want to format, I know the name of the drive, but there are two identical drives of that sort | 16:57 |
| Night_Elf | friendishan: tracert is a windows thing. In linux, it's called "traceroute" | 16:57 |
| friendishan | Night_Elf: ok how to do that :P | 16:57 |
| ActionParsnip | Acorn: i suggest you mount the partitions in turn and note any activity lights | 16:57 |
| mhall119 | Night_Elf: actually, there is a package that makes a /usr/bin/tracert | 16:57 |
| ActionParsnip | Acorn: you can use the label command to label the partitions | 16:57 |
| Fjodor | aeon-ltd: No change, and still, the package light-themes list the murrine engine as required, and that one is installed... | 16:58 |
| chris_7 | Hello, I improperly edited my .profile and I am unable to log in. However I am able to log into BASH via C-M-F1; although all of my bash commands are unavailable. I get an error for all bash commands except echo, cd and pwd. | 16:58 |
| Night_Elf | friendishan: in a command terminal, you do: traceroute 1.2.3.4 (replace 1.2.3.4 with the ip you want to trace to) | 16:58 |
| mhall119 | Night_Elf: looks like it's an update-alternatives link | 16:58 |
| Night_Elf | mhall119: oh? well well, welcome alll ye windozers | 16:58 |
| TheGrammarFreak | I am trying to dual screen on my laptop. I have done this very successfully in windows, with the second monitor at a resolution of 1280x1024. On Ubuntu Lucid, however, I cannot get this resolution. It only allows 1024x768. Any idea how to fix this? | 16:59 |
| friendishan | Night_Elf i want to find traceroute of my IP.......then i enter my IP? | 16:59 |
| mhall119 | traceroute isn't very useful for finding yourself | 16:59 |
| webPragmatist | ActionParsnip: so, uhmmm | 16:59 |
| TrentH | Somebody please, tell me how to add a resolution to 10.4? | 16:59 |
| webPragmatist | ActionParsnip: do you grow your drbd someho | 16:59 |
| lucy_ | hello im new on this | 16:59 |
| TrentH | The xrandr isn't working for me. | 16:59 |
| Night_Elf | friendishan: it's a contradiction in terms. Your question is flawed .... | 17:00 |
| ActionParsnip | webPragmatist: i have no idea what tat is so i'll say no | 17:00 |
| === daniel is now known as SirDerigo | ||
| mhall119 | traceroute tells you how packets get from you, to some other address | 17:00 |
| webPragmatist | ActionParsnip: well logical partitions can "grow" based on their contents i guess | 17:00 |
| lucy_ | wont to go out | 17:00 |
| mhall119 | if the other address is also you, it won't go far | 17:00 |

| friendishan | Night_Elf: this is the question asked to me (quote)If you still have issues please provide us with a tracert from your computer to the server.(/quote) | 17:01 |
| p1l0t | Where does bchunk write the iso file too? It seemed to have completed but the file is not in the directory I was working out of | 17:01 |
| sipior | chris_7: you can copy a default copy from /etc/skel | 17:01 |
| chris_7 | I will try cp | 17:01 |
| unimatrix9 | hi there | 17:01 |
| Night_Elf | friendishan: ok. So you traceroute with the ip of the server | 17:01 |
| sebsebseb | lucy_: Want help with Ubuntu? | 17:01 |
| * sipior probably didn't need two copies there | 17:01 | |
| Night_Elf | friendishan: so: traceroute ip.of.server.here | 17:01 |
| unimatrix9 | how would i avoid installing an system that needs update the moment i install ? | 17:01 |
| chris_7 | sipior, What is cp command for overwrite? | 17:01 |
| Slart | p1l0t: afaik it writes the iso the current directory.. no error messages or such? | 17:02 |
| sipior | chris_7: it will overwrite by default. | 17:02 |
| chris_7 | sipior, cool will try | 17:02 |
| p1l0t | no error message... I will have to check the syslog | 17:02 |
| Acorn | I have a drive mounted, how do I find out what its serial number or logical name is? | 17:02 |
| friendishan | Night_Elf : you mean i should traceroute with the ip of the server or my IP? | 17:02 |
| sipior | chris_7: specify cp as "/bin/cp", if it doesn't happen to be in your path | 17:02 |
| sebsebseb | lucy__: Want help with Ubuntu? | 17:03 |
| chris_7 | sipior, so I /bin/cp instead of just cp? | 17:03 |
| lucy__ | i have a new puppy | 17:03 |
| LjL | eek | 17:03 |
| ActionParsnip | p1l0t: the syntax for bchunk is: bchunk bin cue iso so its wherever you tell the iso file to be | 17:03 |
| lucy__ | ljl are you a boy | 17:04 |
| Night_Elf | friendishan: what traceroute does is that it "traces the route to the requested ip, starting from yourself". | 17:04 |
| geekphreak | howdy all | 17:04 |
| sebsebseb | lucy__: ok thats nice, but this is a channel for Ubuntu, do you know what that is? | 17:04 |
| ActionParsnip | lucy__: is it called lucid. The newest release of puppy linux is called lucid ;) | 17:04 |
| sipior | chris_7: yes, if it can't find cp. | 17:04 |
| LjL | lucy__: social chat in #ubuntu-offtopic please | 17:04 |
| sebsebseb | ActionParsnip: uhmm? | 17:04 |
| ActionParsnip | sebsebseb: check it out | 17:04 |
| p1l0t | ActionParsnip but I did not specify so shouldn't it be in the directory I was in? | 17:04 |
| Night_Elf | friendishan: so "traceroute server.ip.here" will effectively 'map' the route, from you, to the server. | 17:04 |
| friendishan | Night_Elf: ok thanks..............it means that i should enter the servers ip? | 17:04 |
| `Reaper | can anyone tell me the best place to find an oper script so i can study the scripting language? | 17:04 |

| chris_7 | sipior, Thanks so much! Fixed exactly as I needed too. | 17:05 |

| oxidizer | hey | 17:20 |
| Slart | TrentH: the newer versions of ubuntu autodetect the settings that used to be in xorg.conf.. so there is no file any more.. you can create one if you want to though and it will read the info from it | 17:20 |

| visavant | rampageoberon : Does it consume that much at startup or just throughout uptime? | 17:25 |
| grizlurk | Hello, when trying to boot the computer from cold state (turned off for a while), Ubuntu can't detect HDD properly. The only work around is to boot under Windows, let the computer warm up (like an old diesel engine), then Ubuntu will detect the HDD (somewhat properly as /dev/sd* change). Any idea input on this? | 17:26 |
| IdleOne | _blackwater_: also please watch your language. | 17:26 |
| lucy_ | ok i will stop it | 17:26 |
| Slart | TrentH: ah.. so it works now? missed the space? | 17:26 |

| Slart | !helpme | robot_chicken_pa | 17:27 |
| ubottu | robot_chicken_pa: Avoid your questions being followed by a trail of "Please, help me", "Can nobody help me?", "I really need this!", and so on. This just contributes to making the channel unreadable. If you are not answered, ask again later; but see also !repeat and !attitude | 17:27 |
| robot_chicken_pa | ok | 17:27 |
| visavant | Hmm, technically speaking, rampageoberon, x.org usually releases cache memory to apps fit's needed, | 17:28 |
| ubuntuChick | well that gives me 1.1.44 for jaunty.. -_- | 17:28 |
| Arthur_D | dv-: you can use unetbootin to do that in Windows; see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick#From%20Windows | 17:28 |
| robot_chicken_pa | sorry... this is the first time i am using irc | 17:28 |

| ubuntuChick | karmic and up have 1.2 listed though | 17:28 |
| sebsebseb | ubuntuChick: so upgrade to 9.10? | 17:28 |
| Slart | TrentH: the Xorg -configure command generates an xorg.conf.new that is located in your home folder.. you'll have to move it to /etc/X11/ and rename it yourself | 17:28 |

| visavant | rampageoberon : Compiz / Beryl is disabed, correct? | 17:29 |
| edbian | kimmmiii, whoa. I'm not sure what the hell is going on. "sudo aptitude install -f" is supposed to fix all broken packages. Ideally it should report that it has nothing to do. Try just purging those packages. sudo aptitude purge gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly (that should probably get all of them) Tell me how that goes... | 17:29 |

| imthenachoman | what is the point of disabling root ? | 17:29 |
| jrib | imthenachoman: just not necessary | 17:29 |
| Slart | imthenachoman: you mean disabling the root password? the root account is still alive | 17:29 |

| kimmmiii | edbian, thanks.. i'll try it. :) | 17:30 |
| imthenachoman | yes, but why locked? i mean if other ID gets hi-jacked then they can become root | 17:30 |
| ubuntuChick | damn, I guess I'll have to go the virual machine way then | 17:30 |
| lucy__ | wat do you call sum thing that has a holl | 17:30 |
| jrib | !root | imthenachoman | 17:30 |
| ubottu | imthenachoman: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 17:30 |

| imthenachoman | jrib: i know that, but i am saying, if someone figures out the password for an ID that can run sudo, then they can become root with sudo -i and do what they want, logging asside | 17:31 |

| jrib | imthenachoman: no, since as you just said you can do anything root can do using sudo... | 17:32 |
| Slart | imthenachoman: at least with a user account you have to guess both the username and the password.. not that it improves things much | 17:32 |
| IdleOne | ubuntuChick: oh you are right, sorry :/ | 17:33 |
| ubuntuChick | np ^^ | 17:33 |

| chiggavelli | any ATI drivers HELP available here? | 17:33 |
| imthenachoman | humm | 17:33 |
| jrib | imthenachoman: I imagine part of the rationale was to discourage people from logging in as root and staying that way. If you don't like it, feel free to enable it of course. It's completely unecessary, but it's your computer in the end | 17:33 |
| sebsebseb | ubuntuChick: some are more user friendly than Ubuntu really even | 17:33 |
| Slart | imthenachoman: but sudo provides logging and granularity.. you can allow one user to only run the backup app as root or similar restrictions.. sudo rights doesn't mean you can do anything.. just because the default admin account has that configuration | 17:33 |
| ubuntuChick | yeah but I like ubuntu :D and houdini and nuke run very well here, so no need to change | 17:33 |

I'd not changed anything nor installed any updates so I dunno why it chaged. I tried changing the NVIDIA setting but it wouldn't give me theoption of 1024x1024 and I tried editing the xorg.conf file, again no luck. | 17:39 |
| broonsparrow | 17:39 | |

| josephnexus | is there a bug report yet for the issue when editing network connection, you need to hit enter after adding anything to the ipv4 config. If you put in the gateway, but don't hit enter, it will put in 0.0.0.0 rather than what you entered | 17:44 |
| edbian | kimmmiii, Then I think you're good to go! | 17:44 |
| h00k | josephnexus: you can check on Launchpad :) | 17:44 |

| lolmac | hi, i have a computer connected to a wireless router connected to a dsl modem, the modem is set to distribute the computer ips, and i connect the internet through a dsl connection, i set up the pppoeconf in ubuntu but the network somehow was turned off (after i set pppoeconf and restarted the computer) the icon on the system tray disappeared, and i remembered there was a setting in a network file that had to turn ifdownmanaged=false to true, i did that and | 17:46 |
| lolmac | the network got on again, but now it has a strange name (ifupdown(eth0) and i can't edit/remove the connection, how can i change the name? | 17:46 |
| kimmmiii | edbian, noe quite sure, but when I did a system update I got the same error.. After that it has been like that.. But it seems like its ok now:D | 17:46 |

| josephnexus | blue_anna: load takes memory consumption and other things into account, not just CPU, that's why it isn't per cpu, i don't fully understand what you are looking for | 17:49 |
| edbian | kimmmiii, Ok. Glad it's fixed | 17:50 |
| grizlurk | Hello, when trying to boot the computer from cold state (turned off for a while), Ubuntu can't detect HDD properly. The only work around is to boot under Windows, let the computer warm up (like an old diesel engine), then Ubuntu will detect the HDD (somewhat properly as /dev/sd* change). Any idea input on this? | 17:50 |
| josephnexus | grizlurk, you using wubi? | 17:50 |

| grizlurk | josephnexus: no, the intall was performed via 64 bit burned (alternative) 10.04 iso | 17:52 |

| derick_ | it was on there last night, but booting up this morning i had two volume icons, i just entered what u said and it did nothing | 18:18 |
| Nijverheid | onetinsoldier: I just worked out the answer :) transfer the files to the other partition and reboot into windows XD | 18:18 |
| asymptote | onetinsoldier: I can rip out the old version | 18:18 |
| karlshea | archlich: alright, i guess i'm gonna try that | 18:18 |
| whodat | only one flash can be installed | 18:18 |

| CbIP | Please help me to configure autorun. I'm using Ubuntu-PC without monitor and need "vncserver -geometry 1380x950" and "/opt/lampp/lampp start" to be started regardless of gnome startup.

| onetinsoldier | asymptote: ok, so you had not done so before installed the sevenmachines ppa version? you will need to get rid of all adobe flash on your system before installing any version | 18:20 |

| Nijverheid | whodat: so what's the problem with it? | 18:20 |

| CbIP | undecim: Should I just copy these lines and add & symblor or write some script? | 18:21 |
| visavant | p1lot : Secondly, ifhte bios is configured to boot from that, and thirdly if the usb has a bootloader or mbr or something of that sort. | 18:21 |
| whodat | ppd seems missing | 18:21 |
| onetinsoldier | asymptote: and i would use --puge rather than --remove, just to be sure | 18:21 |
| whodat | got hplib 3.10.2 | 18:21 |
| CbIP | undecim: Also - what if I write "sudo ..." - will it request my su password? | 18:21 |
| undecim | CbIP: Copy them ad add the & symbol | 18:21 |

| CbIP | undecim: OK. Thanks! | 18:23 |
| onetinsoldier | asymptote: after you have .debs removed... then run sudo updatedb && locate flash - look the file listing over carefully and decide what needs to be deleted manually. it will come back with a lof o files listed, but it's pretty easy to tell what really needs to be deleted if you ask me | 18:23 |

| derick_ | i guess its not too much of a problem | 18:47 |
| undecim | derick_: Can you create another user and see if that user has the same issue? | 18:47 |

| undecim | CbIP: Ahhh... okay then. Try this in rc.local: su - -c "vncserver -geometry 1380x950" cbip | 18:49 |
| bastidrazor | rolandpish: apt-cache policy packagename will show. | 18:49 |
| bastidrazor | !terminal | dlacklight | 18:49 |
| ubottu | dlacklight: The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE). Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal | 18:49 |

| undecim | derick_: If you want, you could just replace the default network manager with wicd | 18:53 |
| archlich | karlshea, maybe check out the X11 channel here on freenode | 18:54 |
| bilalakhtar | the bot ubottu is correct | 18:54 |
| derick_ | Undecim: what is wicd? | 18:54 |
| undecim | derick_: It's an alternate network manager. | 18:54 |
| undecim | derick_: I prefer it over the default network manager on Ubuntu | 18:54 |
| karlshea | archlich: i mean, even if i could move the dialog to a different display that would work | 18:54 |

| Whitor | Drive = driver | 18:58 |
| Beyecixramd | Whitor: there's a recommended one | 18:58 |
| Beyecixramd | Whitor: go with it | 18:58 |
| Beyecixramd | Whitor: if not... go with "current" | 18:58 |
| Whitor | Beyecixramd, yeah I see that ... but what version is it ? I don't like this 'current' | 18:59 |
| ^mNotIntelligent | hi all | 18:59 |

| Cosmo` | there's got to be a way to set a DHCP alias to have a gateway and dns-server addresses | 19:00 |

| Giles | my volume control and notifiction thing (email pidgin, broadcast) have disappared. | 19:05 |
| Beyecixramd | ^mNotIntelligent: ubuntu requires some amount of RAM to work properly. other distros like Lubuntu and Xubuntu require less memory, but Ubuntu is a full-blown distro, so you have to make sure you've got enough RAM :) | 19:05 |

| broonsparrow | I have a LG monitor and NVIDIA card. It was all running fine yesterday, today when I turned it on the resolution was set at 1024x768 rather than 1204x1024. I'd not changed anything nor installed any updates so I dunno why it chaged. I tried changing the NVIDIA setting but it wouldn;t give me theoption of 1024x1024 and I tried editing the xorg.conf file, again no luck. I then upgraded to 10.04 to see if that would help | 19:12 |
| broonsparrow | - but still no luck. Any idea what's going on and how I can restore theoriginal resolution. Thanks | 19:12 |

| ^mNotIntelligent | Beyecixramd, got stuck at the same point ... | 19:22 |
| LjL | onetinsoldier: well, yes and no - a nick change in itself is fine, but setting your nickname to state that you're away is against the guidelines. if everyone did that every time they go away, this place would all be a big wall of nick-flooding. using /away instead is recommended. | 19:22 |

| visavant | ah | 19:24 |
| Beyecixramd | ^mNotIntelligent: the next time, separate /home and / to avoid loosing data | 19:25 |
| bastidrazor | djdark: you need to install xchat. | 19:25 |
| Beyecixramd | ^mNotIntelligent: separating /boot too is highly recommended | 19:25 |
| ^mNotIntelligent | Beyecixramd, I'm more concerned about the binaries insataleld with this version.. that I can not use by any means... unless i go for a dist-upgrade | 19:26 |

| paddy_ | What is the best Linux compatible graphics card that has dual monitor support for 100 to 150 gbp? | 19:27 |
| Beyecixramd | paddy_: nVidia are great | 19:27 |
| visavant | paddy_ nV is the best line. | 19:27 |
| Beyecixramd | paddy_: and intel are the best for less headaches, but perform worse | 19:27 |
| picachu | hey guys, how is that default desktop download named ? | 19:27 |

| picachu | okay | 19:29 |
| karlshea | archlich: seems to all be working now, thanks for the help! | 19:29 |
| visavant | paddy_ GeForce line is sufficient. | 19:29 |
| visavant | paddy_ More than sufficient actually. | 19:29 |
| archlich | karlshea, glad it worked out ok | 19:30 |

| BluesKaj-L | yeah even my onboard geforce 6150 runs fine , 3d and dir and the desktop/compiz effects | 19:31 |
| caldeira | someone can help me? | 19:33 |
| Hanashi | Hi, all. I just installed 10.04 32bit on my Dell Latitude E6500 notebook. The sound works OK when used as a notebook, but when the system is docked, no sound at all. Under 9.10, the sound used to play out of the laptop speakers no matter wheter it was docked or not. any ideas what changed in 10.04? | 19:33 |
| mneptok | caldeira: not if you don't ask a question. | 19:33 |
| caldeira | just checking if someone is looking here :) | 19:33 |
| picachu | shit. where is it - http://mirrors.bsd.md/ubuntu/dists/lucid/ | 19:34 |
| caldeira | i need install a libapache2-mod-php5 older | 19:34 |
| uberamd | Hanashi: is the output device changing when you are docking it? | 19:34 |
| ikonia | picachu: control your language | 19:34 |
| rocket16 | hello all | 19:34 |
| caldeira | of the php 5.1.6 | 19:34 |
| ikonia | !info php5 | 19:34 |
| ubottu | php5 (source: php5): server-side, HTML-embedded scripting language (metapackage). In component main, is optional. Version 5.3.2-1ubuntu4.2 (lucid), package size 1 kB, installed size 20 kB | 19:34 |
| ikonia | caldeira: 5.3.2 is the current stable package in ubuntu 10.04 | 19:34 |
| caldeira | if a do apt-get install libapache2-mod-php5 will instal from 5.3.2 | 19:34 |
| caldeira | I know | 19:34 |
| ente | hi | 19:34 |
| ikonia | caldeira: older packages are not available | 19:35 |
| rocket16 | Hello ente | 19:35 |
| caldeira | anywhere? :( | 19:35 |
| ikonia | caldeira: not from ubuntu repos | 19:35 |
| uberamd | If your software requires 5.1.6 then maybe you should look at different PHP scripts, that just screams poorly coded | 19:35 |
| n8w | im tyrin to use simplebackupsuite but everytime i hit "backup now" it doesnt do anythin | 19:35 |
| ente | how do I find out which video modes the kernel supports? grub tells me that vga=ask is no longer supported | 19:35 |
| Kyle__ | Hello. I'm having trouble with a package (xemacs21-nomule). It didn't finish installing properly, and now I can't uninstall it to clean up the machines. Anyone know a way arround this? | 19:35 |
| Hanashi | uberamd, that's a good question. I can check that. it's really just a port replicator, so I'd expect not, but I don't know. | 19:35 |
| caldeira | uberamd: not that my scripts need it, but the server I'm working with have it! | 19:36 |
| ente | I don't want to waste time on this crap. why did it even get patched away :( | 19:36 |
| infid | when i generate an ssh public key in ~/.ssh, do i have to use that same key everywhere on my lan and remote computers, or is it possible to generate multiple public keys? | 19:36 |
| caldeira | I installed the php5.1.6 here, but need the libapache2-mod-php5 too | 19:36 |
| ikonia | infid: you can have as many keys as you want, you can also have host keys | 19:36 |
| ikonia | caldeira: how did you install it ? | 19:36 |
| uberamd | caldeira: Look at the change logs between those versions, chances are anything you are doing won't be affected anyway | 19:36 |
| caldeira | will crash install the 5.3.2 package? | 19:36 |
| picachu | well fuck me running there aren't any mirrors in my country | 19:36 |
| mguy | ente: Graphics modes or text modes | 19:36 |
| caldeira | ikonia: download at php, and compile | 19:36 |
| BluesKaj-L | Kyle__, run sudo dpkg --clear-avail | 19:37 |
| Kyle__ | infid: you can create tons of public keys | 19:37 |
| ente | mguy: text modes | 19:37 |
| ikonia | caldeira: then you have probably caused a lot of conflicts, the apache module is normally build from the same php source code, however ubuntu just breaks it into seperate packages | 19:37 |
| Bisu[Shield] | i need some help. all the folders in a directory are owned by www-data and a regular user. the excdeption is that two of those folders are owned by www-data and root. For some reason php cannot write to those folders with the excepiton. how do I remove permission from root and set permissions to www-data and regular_user? | 19:37 |
| Kyle__ | infid: Append each public key to the .ssh/authorized_keys file, and then any accounts with the matching private keys can log in | 19:37 |
| Kyle__ | BluesKaj-L: Great, lemmie try that. | 19:37 |
| ente | but that's actually the same since everything above good ol' 80x50 requires a graphical mode | 19:37 |
| mguy | ente: Take a look at svgatextmode | 19:38 |
| uberamd | Hanashi: just make sure that when docked it is outputting correctly. Check under System -> Preferences -> Sound -> Hardware & Output | 19:38 |
| caldeira | I didn't installed the package yet afraid of it. | 19:38 |
| ikonia | caldeira: a wise move | 19:38 |
| caldeira | so I came here looking for help, but appear that I have no choice. | 19:38 |
| Hanashi | uberamd, I'll check it, though when docked, there's only one option there anyway. | 19:38 |
| Bisu[Shield] | i tried chown -R regular_user ./ but failed, I can only do that if I am super user | 19:38 |
| DarkSector | 10.04 looks good, just installed it | 19:38 |
| durt | hey folks, can any one tell me what the security update to libc-bin has to do with /etc/mtab? | 19:38 |
| DarkSector | but why did they take the title bar buttons to the left ? | 19:39 |
| ikonia | durt: libc is the core c libraries of the system, mtab is generated by the libc component, showing actice mounts | 19:39 |
| delac | how can I modify the interaction between pulseaudio sound preferences and alsamixer? | 19:39 |
| ente | mguy: vga=something is enough for me | 19:39 |
| ikonia | DarkSector: user experience | 19:39 |
| Bisu[Shield] | wait why is no one answering | 19:39 |
| ZykoticK9 | !controls | DarkSector | 19:39 |
| ubottu | DarkSector: 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 | 19:39 |

| DarkSector | ZykoticK9: lol I know | 19:39 |
| ente | mguy: I don't understand what alternatives to vga=ask there are to find out. | 19:39 |
| uLinux | "This needs the ncurses library. If it is not available, menuconf wont work. If you are using curses, use make menuconfig-curses instead." I tried apt-get ncurses and ncurses but they dont exist.. what can I do | 19:39 |
| onetinsoldier | DarkSector: you can also just change themes. a number of other themes have the controls on the right | 19:40 |
| DarkSector | ikonia: lame excuse | 19:40 |
| ente | I consider it garbage | 19:40 |
| ikonia | DarkSector: not really, trying to give a better experience | 19:40 |
| mguy | ente: It doesn't work that way anymore, use the package svgatextmode | 19:40 |
| majnoon | how do i activate/install xdcmp ?? | 19:40 |
| DarkSector | ikonia: hardly matters | 19:40 |
| ente | mguy: where is this package? | 19:40 |
| ikonia | DarkSector: in your perspective, it mattered to others | 19:40 |
| onetinsoldier | uLinux: apt-cache search ncurses ...you will also need the ncurses dev package | 19:40 |
| DarkSector | ikonia: yeah and that too :D | 19:40 |
| infid | thanks Kyle__ and ikonia | 19:40 |
| paddy_ | what are the advantages of buying quatro over geforce? | 19:41 |
| ikonia | paddy_: thats offtopic for this channel, try #hardware | 19:41 |
| ente | and how can I even edit the grub command line. what the fuck happened? | 19:41 |
| ikonia | ente: control your language | 19:41 |
| BluesKaj-L | delac, pulse audio runs top of alsamixer as a soundeserver which is mostly redundant on most sound setups ...visit #pulseaudio for options | 19:41 |
| ikonia | ente: you edit grub at the command line by pressing "e" on the grub menu | 19:41 |
| onetinsoldier | uLinux: sudo aptitude install lib32ncurses5 lib32ncurses5-dev | 19:41 |
| ente | ikonia: there is no menu | 19:41 |
| ikonia | ente: then you edit the config files in /etc/grub.d | 19:42 |
| bastidrazor | ente: hold shift after POST | 19:42 |
| onetinsoldier | uLinux: sorry.. strike that if you're running 64-bit | 19:42 |
| ente | bastidrazor: thanks | 19:42 |
| delac | BluesKaj-L: might be a good idea. thanks! :) | 19:42 |
| uLinux | onetinsoldier, im running the "normal" version | 19:42 |
| onetinsoldier | uLinux: sudo aptitude install libncurses5 libncurses5-dev | 19:42 |
| barberan | How do I finish prolonged system->administration->system testing? ?? | 19:42 |
| BluesKaj-L | delac, unless you need to run se | 19:42 |
| ente | bastidrazor: but does not work | 19:42 |
| uLinux | i dont know the different between apt-get and aptitude sry lol | 19:42 |
| uLinux | difference | 19:42 |
| BluesKaj-L | multiple sound sources at one time | 19:43 |
| ente | I'll repair using netboot | 19:43 |
| ente | big thanks for ruining linux anyway to the ubuntu-project | 19:43 |
| PrototypeX29A | you're welcome | 19:43 |
| barberan | How do I finish prolonged system->administration->system testing? ?? | 19:43 |
| Beyecixramd | ente: youre welcome :) | 19:44 |
| tertl3_ | barberan: warap? | 19:44 |
| BluesKaj-L | uLinux, there isn;t except some maintain aptitude tracks dependencies more accurately and results in fewer dependency probs | 19:44 |
| quaa | So i need some help, just installed ubuntu server on my system and when i turn it on it gets to a blinking _ prompt then after a second i get a red screen flash and my monitor says no signal. I have ssh access, but cant figure out why the local console isn't displaying anything. any ideas on what to look at/try? | 19:44 |
| onetinsoldier | uLinux: no real big difference for you to worry about. interchange them if you like. if someone show you to use 'aptitude', you can replace it with apt-get, and vice-versa | 19:44 |
| tertl3_ | what OS does the girl on cowboy be-bop use? | 19:45 |
| uberamd | quaa: can you do a Control-Alt-F2 ? | 19:45 |

| uLinux | onetinsoldier, :) | 19:46 |
| BluesKaj-L | tertl3_, what kind of question is that ? | 19:46 |
| onetinsoldier | uLinux: hope those work for ya :-) | 19:46 |
| ikonia | BluesKaj-L: a question that should be dropped and moved on from | 19:47 |
| uberamd | quaa: Does Control-Alt-F1 through F7 change the screen at all? | 19:47 |
| uLinux | im gonna try | 19:47 |
| quaa | uberamd: no still no signal | 19:47 |
| chopin | is dos2unix not available anymore? | 19:47 |
| ikonia | !info dos2unix | 19:48 |
| quaa | ikonia: framebuffer settings? | 19:48 |
| BluesKaj-L | ikonia, you're no fun at all | 19:48 |
| ubottu | Package dos2unix does not exist in lucid | 19:48 |
| ikonia | chopin: should be | 19:48 |
| Slart | chopin: I think it's called something else.. let me think for a sec | 19:48 |
| onetinsoldier | chopin: i believe it is.. i use apt-file search <term> | 19:48 |
| Slart | chopin: something weird.. | 19:48 |
| chopin | ah | 19:48 |
| chopin | maybe in sysutils? | 19:48 |
| ZenMasta | where can I get a netinstall for 10.04 server | 19:48 |
| Slart | !info tofrodos | chopin | 19:48 |
| ubottu | chopin: tofrodos (source: tofrodos): Converts DOS <-> Unix text files, alias tofromdos. In component main, is optional. Version 1.7.8.debian.1-2 (lucid), package size 19 kB, installed size 84 kB | 19:48 |
| Slart | chopin: that's the one | 19:48 |
| onetinsoldier | Nope... apt-file doesn't even find dos2unix | 19:48 |
| chopin | oh | 19:48 |
| chopin | thx Slart | 19:48 |
| onetinsoldier | ahh | 19:48 |
| ikonia | Slart: excellent find | 19:49 |
| Slart | chopin: you're welcome | 19:49 |
| quaa | and for more information, i tried using xubuntu desktop and the alternate cd as well, same problem | 19:49 |
| Slart | ikonia: thank dr willis.. he was the one that found it last week =) | 19:49 |
| onetinsoldier | just think of frodo and the ring now when you need it, lol | 19:49 |
| Kyle__ | Is there a way to install netbeans plugins in a way where they're available for all users on a system? | 19:52 |
| yohannint | hello all | 19:53 |
| onetinsoldier | hi | 19:53 |
| yohannint | i would like to update my motd via update-motd | 19:53 |
| yohannint | i found scripts in directory /etc/update-motd | 19:53 |
| yohannint | but i can not lauch sudo update-motd | 19:53 |
| ente | why is there no vi on lucid bootdisk? | 19:54 |
| maco | ente: wasnt vi in karmic either ;-) nano is the default | 19:54 |
| visavant | I love nano | 19:54 |
| bastidrazor | yohannint: /etc/motd.tail is where update-motd reads from and /etc/motd is what it changes. | 19:54 |
| ente | I hate nano, it's the editor with the worst keybinds I've seen | 19:54 |
| uberamd | I always :wq in nano, ugh | 19:55 |
| jpds | ente: nano is easier to use than vi. | 19:55 |
| rmrfslash | anyone know why I cannot get apt-get through a proxy even with export http_proxy=proxy:80 | 19:55 |
| yohannint | bastidrazor: i dont have /etc/motd.tail | 19:55 |
| maco | ente: i had no idea it even had keybindings.... point is for non-geeks who arent gonna get modal editing to be less-confused though | 19:55 |
| uberamd | vim is my preferred, it is super simple to learn. If you know i, :w, :q you are fine | 19:55 |
| maco | ente: er oh i guess you mean the ^O ^X stuff at the bottom.... | 19:55 |
| ente | plus, 1. busybox has a vi applet which would add 100k size to the CD, 2. vi is part of POSIX iirc and should be available on any *NIX, | 19:56 |
| visavant | vim's fine, but for general editing, it's just easier to use nano for quick and easy edits. | 19:56 |
| rmrfslash | I can wget from www.google.com no problem | 19:56 |
| ente | and yes, ^O to write makes a whole lot of sense | 19:56 |
| === Guest39127 is now known as merlin83 | ||
| yohannint | bastidrazor: i have updated 00-header in the scripts directory, but it dont want to update the motd | 19:56 |
| maco | ente: o = outut | 19:56 |
| uberamd | well the quickest for easy edits is the one you know the best | 19:56 |
| maco | ente: output | 19:56 |
| visavant | agreed, ente. | 19:56 |
| maco | ente: i think the fact that it lists them as "^O" instead of "Ctrl+O" is stupid though. most people dont know ^ = ctrl | 19:56 |
| === merlin83 is now known as Guest22701 | ||
| uberamd | for example on every fresh ubuntu install I always load up /etc/apt/sources.list in vim and do a :%s/us.archive.ubuntu.com/lug.mtu.edu/ | 19:57 |
| bastidrazor | yohannint: possibly things have changed in 10.04 .. | 19:57 |
| maco | uberamd: time for you to learn about sed | 19:57 |
| jwm123 | can someone help me recover from a crashed 10.04 installation? | 19:57 |
| yohannint | bastidrazor: do you know why i can not lauch update-motd ? | 19:57 |
| uberamd | maco: yeah I see it come up a lot but haven't checked into it | 19:57 |
| maco | uberamd: sudo sed -i 's/us.archive.ubuntu.com/lug.mtu.edu/' /etc/apt/sources.list | 19:57 |
| jwm123 | or is there another room I should ask that question in? | 19:58 |
| uberamd | maco: thats even faster! Wow, I am going to read up on its man page | 19:58 |
| rmrfslash | perfect | 19:58 |
| bastidrazor | yohannint: update-motd does not exist on my lucid install. | 19:58 |
| jwm123 | when I log in now, I just get a terminal rather than a GUI. Can someone help me recover from this? | 19:59 |
| visavant | You have to be more specific, jwm123. | 19:59 |
| Gnea | jwm123: can you login? | 19:59 |
| caldeira | thx you guys for the help | 19:59 |
| caldeira | explain me a lot. But need to go. cya | 19:59 |
| visavant | seeya cald | 19:59 |
| jwm123 | I was upgrading to Lucid and the computer froze, now it boots up to a terminal version of 10.04 rather than a graphic desktop | 20:00 |
| jwm123 | I can log in in the "terminal" | 20:00 |
| visavant | You mean it boots to shell? | 20:00 |
| bastidrazor | yohannint: apparently things have changed up like grub2 has.. look in /etc/update-motd.d/ | 20:00 |
| jwm123 | yes | 20:00 |
| jwm123 | I assume I need to run a shell command to get the graphics environment going and then complete the install, but that's what I need help for | 20:01 |
| yohannint | yep bastidrazor : thats where i have updated one script | 20:01 |
| archlich | jwm123, try upgrading again sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 20:01 |
| yohannint | bastidrazor: but i dont know how to take changes in effect | 20:01 |
| bastidrazor | yohannint: i have found an update-motd in a ppa but none in the regular repositories. let me dig and see if motd is updated be another means. | 20:02 |
| yohannint | thanks bastidrazor | 20:02 |
| jwm123 | archlich: thanks I ran that and it had me run sudo dpkg --configure blah blah blah | 20:03 |
| jwm123 | which is currently running | 20:03 |
| schweegi | hello! i've just started my notebook yet, but GRUB doesn't work. it schows me only a terminal.. what can i do that i can start to ubuntu ? -.- | 20:03 |
| onetinsoldier | bastidrazor: hmm, i show update-motd available on my system in regular repo | 20:03 |
| jwm123 | i'll give an update when that finishes | 20:03 |

| onetinsoldier | yohannint: roger that. i had a look. the update-motd package does not contain any binary, only docs | 20:11 |
| schweegi | the problem is, that Grub started in a terminal so that i can't select an operating system from a list | 20:11 |
| mgolisch | schweegi: hm what did you do for that to happen? | 20:12 |

| archlich | biborn, shutdown [TIME] may have different formats, the most common is simply the word 'now' which will bring the system down immediately. Other valid formats are +m, where m is the number of minutes to wait until shutting down and hh:mm which specifies the time on the 24hr clock. | 20:13 |
| schweegi | mgolisch: i'm sorry. i looked up for grub 1 and not for 2.. that can't be functional. | 20:13 |

| naxa | augustl, well this guide I'm reading right now suggests that one shouldn't want to use 64-bit in the first place. I disagree... and trying to read on. but I wanted to mention. :) | 20:34 |
| Pici | _KAMI_: You'd have to ask them about it. Maybe #ubuntu-community-team would be a better place to ask? | 20:35 |

| jXP3 | augustl, do you want to just install 64bit ubuntu into hdd using usb stick? | 20:41 |
| augustl | jXP3: yes. I think | 20:41 |
| augustl | naxa: looking up http://www.linuxliveusb.com/ tnx | 20:41 |
| DjDark | right, no changes. i should point out that it just connected to the router and i was ableto bring up google.com, but then i just tried to go to speedtest.net, and also reload the router config page, and it says address not found | 20:42 |
| Scunizi | If I install WiCD will the package manager automatically uninstall network-manager? | 20:44 |
| Monotoko | Scunizi, nope | 20:44 |
| pepee | hi | 20:44 |
| Scunizi | Monotoko: interesting.. on 9.10 (on my system) it did.. ok. thanks! | 20:45 |
| Monotoko | Scunizi, hmmm when i tried to install it it left NM alone :/ | 20:45 |
| SandGorgon | hmm.. when is Ubuntu getting btrfs - Fedora 13 seems to have enabled it .. | 20:45 |
| Scunizi | Monotoko: can they both co-exist? I would think they would interfere with each other. | 20:46 |
| DjDark | lookingunder network tools, select wlan0, hit config, and it says interface does not exist...... | 20:46 |
| BluesKaj-L | Scunizi, network-manager used to be uninstalled automatically but I think it's just disables when wicd is installed | 20:46 |
| BluesKaj-L | err disabled | 20:47 |
| |corpse| | ok so after many days of trying i can finaly get though most of the installation of server 10.04. When i get to partitions formatting it jumps to 33% and freezes. any ideas on a fix? | 20:47 |
| augustl | why does http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/download not recommend the 64 bit version? | 20:47 |
| jXP3 | augustl, for that i used this: http://www.pendrivelinux.com/boot-multiple-iso-from-usb-multiboot-usb/ with modified grub menu.lst to load amd64 not x86 iso. | 20:47 |
| Scunizi | BluesKaj-L: Monotoko .. ok.. network-manager drives me nuts.. it won't allow me to assign a static ip that sticks through reboots and manually doing it through resolv.conf and /etc/network/interfaces get over-ridden by NM... | 20:47 |
| ozzloy | is there a way to modify lines in a file from command line without using a temp file? | 20:47 |
| dancek | ozzloy, sed -i | 20:48 |
| Monotoko | Scunizi, /etc/network/interfaces shouldnt be getting over-ridden :/ | 20:48 |
| ozzloy | dancek, cool | 20:48 |
| dancek | ozzloy, depends a lot on what you want to do though | 20:48 |
| RyanP | Any idea why rhythmbox keeps muting itself if I leave it paused for more than a couple minutes? | 20:48 |
| DjDark | how do i add a wireless network | 20:49 |
| augustl | jXP3: seems like ppl don't want us to use the 64 bit version :) | 20:49 |
| Scunizi | Monotoko: you would think but it is.... not sure if network-manager is different on kubuntu or not but from everything that I've read just the front end gui is re-written.... | 20:49 |
| jXP3 | augustl, and btw, i'm using 64bit version without any problems :). Event win games through wine works :) | 20:49 |
| jXP3 | even* | 20:49 |
| Monotoko | Scunizi, if you need to just make it run this: "ifconfig eth0 <ip>" every startup | 20:49 |
| augustl | jXP3: kind of sucks to have all those 32 bit libs installed, though | 20:49 |
| Scunizi | Monotoko: where do I put that? | 20:49 |
| augustl | I think I'll set up a 32 bit chroot env | 20:49 |
| Monotoko | Scunizi, check that it works first...if it works put it in: /etc/init.d/rc.local | 20:50 |
| BluesKaj-L | yes Scunizi , I pureged NM , but you can also edit /var/lib/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.state to disable NM | 20:50 |
| ozzloy | dancek, i am making a script that downloads and compiles drivers for a webcam, but i need to delete or comment out 3 lines from the file before it compiles on my system | 20:50 |
| Monotoko | Scunizi, if your running it manually you need sudo...if your putting it into the file do not use sudo as the command will not work if you do | 20:50 |
| ozzloy | dancek, so kernel updates only affect my camera for a little bit | 20:51 |
| dancek | ozzloy, then create a patch and apply it in the script | 20:51 |
| naxa | how can I auto-remove ppa's that give 404 from sources? | 20:51 |
| Monotoko | naxa: /etc/apt/sources.lst | 20:51 |
| ozzloy | dancek, ohHOho, sounds cooler | 20:51 |
| Scunizi | Monotoko: BluesKaj-L .. both good suggestions.. so I think I'll just purge NM and either install wicd or let "interfaces" take over.. I think that will help to maintain standards | 20:51 |
| naxa | Monotoko, ok :) | 20:51 |
| dancek | ozzloy, try http://stephenjungels.com/jungels.net/articles/diff-patch-ten-minutes.html for a tutorial | 20:51 |
| naxa | Monotoko, there would be nice if there would be an auto way | 20:52 |
| naxa | *it | 20:52 |
| Monotoko | naxa: sorry typo: /etc/apt/sources.list and i believe there is a way in the GUI | 20:52 |
| Monotoko | but im not quite sure on that one | 20:52 |
| ozzloy | dancek, cool | 20:53 |
| naxa | Monotoko, okay thanks! :) | 20:53 |

| mw44118-work | matt1987aa_: while I'm reading, you should read this http://blog.tplus1.com/index.php/2008/06/13/how-to-connect-to-a-wireless-network-from-the-ubuntu-command-line/ | 21:38 |
| mw44118-work | I wrote that a while back. | 21:38 |
| flexo_ | hm. general question... should i rather file upstream bug reports or in launchpad? | 21:39 |
| guntbert | !bug | flexo_ | 21:39 |
| ubottu | flexo_: If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please file a bug using the command « ubuntu-bug <package> » - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs for other ways to report bugs - Bugs in/wishes for the IRC bots (not Ubuntu) can be filed at http://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-bots | 21:39 |
| undecim | bash question: I know you can use \ and a newline character to have a single command with lots of arguments span several lines in a script. If I command out one of those lines, how does the command get executed? | 21:39 |
| mw44118-work | matt1987aa_: can you paste in the results of just "sudo iwconfig" | 21:40 |
| undecim | comment out one of those* | 21:40 |
| flexo_ | guntbert: that's not really an answer | 21:40 |
| matt1987aa_ | ok | 21:40 |
| flexo_ | i know how to file bugs at launchpad | 21:40 |
| flexo_ | the question is whether i should do it, or go upstream | 21:40 |
| matt1987aa_ | mw44118-work: http://pastie.org/978798 | 21:40 |
| flexo_ | launchpad could say "not our problem, file an upstream report" and upstream could say "dont care, distro applies patches, we dont support it" (i dont even know if it's really an upstream issue) | 21:41 |
| guntbert | flexo_: like the text from ubottu said: please file bugs at launchpad (shortened) :-) | 21:41 |
| flexo_ | okay. thanks :) | 21:41 |
| flexo_ | guntbert: could be clarified though - whether or not launch pad is prefered over upstream is a different thing than launchpad being preferred over mailing some ubuntu guy | 21:42 |
| Viren | anyone? | 21:42 |
| mw44118-work | matt1987aa_: try this sudo iwconfig eth1 essid BTOpenZone | 21:42 |
| Viren | it should be a real simple problem | 21:42 |
| mw44118-work | then sudo dhclient eth1 | 21:42 |
| vithos | i have a very laggy mouse which leaves copies of its image everywhere it moves, widget painting problems, etc. in ubuntu 10.04, but if i boot runlevel 3 and use low graphics mode the whole gnome desktop works fine | 21:44 |
| matt1987aa_ | mw44118-work: same responce | 21:44 |
| guntbert | flexo_: if upstream is not mentioned we just use launchpad -- there are repackagers/package maintainers to decide if the report should be elevated | 21:44 |
| undecim | vithos: Do you have your video driver enabled? | 21:44 |
| flexo_ | guntbert: yea, i got that. maybe it should be clarified on that wiki page.. it doesn't really say | 21:44 |
| vithos | undecim: there doesn't seem to be a proprietary driver choice. it's an old p-ii box | 21:45 |

| guntbert | flexo_: about what wiki page are you talking? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs ? | 21:46 |
| mw44118-work | matt1987aa_: what does sudo ifconfig say? | 21:47 |

| Loshki | iandan: the usual way to do that is to store the passphrase in ssh-agent on SERVER1 via ssh-add, so that ssh can read it on SERVER1. But that's intended for interactive use on a console. Not sure how to make it work in your case though... | 22:26 |

| blue_anna | antivirtel: what is a charset manager editor? | 22:31 |
| j800r | antivirtel, gedit on gnome | 22:31 |
| Slart | khunter619: "many"? I'm having problems naming 5 apps that don't work.. what have I missed? | 22:31 |
| j800r | kate on kde | 22:31 |
| tripps | How do I find out what version of ubuntu I'm running? My "about ubuntu" simply says, "ubuntu - the - released in -" | 22:31 |
| Slart | acemo: I think basically anything over 1000 for hardware accelerated graphics | 22:31 |
| Odd-rationale | tripps: lsb_release -a | 22:31 |
| blue_anna | antivirtel: if you like vi, you might try gvim -- gedit with ruby ibus is nice too | 22:31 |
| antivirtel | khunter619, j800r: gedit not displays charset.. in npp i can change or convert | 22:31 |
| tripps | Odd-rationale, thanks | 22:31 |
| acemo | Slart: i'm getting 28-30k now | 22:32 |
| matt1987aa | can someone help with my netowrking problem? I cannot connect to networks in network manager or the terminal | 22:32 |
| antivirtel | blue_anna what is vi? | 22:32 |
| Slart | acemo: well.. at least your graphics is accelerated =) | 22:32 |
| blue_anna | antivirtel: nevermind vi -- gedit shows the charset on the save window | 22:32 |
| antivirtel | hmm | 22:32 |
| matt1987aa | instead I received No DHCPOFFERS | 22:33 |
| khunter619 | Slart: I made same assumption for Linux softwares being 64 bit compatible based on the requirement for Windows apps needing 2 different versions for - one for 32 bit editions & other for 64 bit editions | 22:33 |
| merischino | hello? | 22:33 |
| antivirtel | but converting? seeng..I have eggdrop problems... I think charset | 22:33 |
| blue_anna | how do you get gedit to tab to indent/shift-tab to unindent blocks of text? | 22:33 |
| bassliner | khunter619: what software in particular? | 22:33 |
| merischino | Ok. good. it's finally letting me talk. I just installed ubuntu 10.4 alongside my windows installation | 22:33 |
| acemo | Slart: seems like it, but i'm not getting the fancy stuff in my kde yet.. i'll try tux racing first n if that works see what i can do to get my konsole to go transparant partly | 22:33 |
| merischino | now of course i can't get to my windows installation. | 22:33 |
| antivirtel | I 'll try kate at first :D | 22:33 |
| Slart | acemo: sounds like a plan | 22:33 |
| bassliner | khunter619: i run fedora 64bit on a notebook without complaints whatsoever but i think they kindof mix 32 and 64bit in the 64bit branch... | 22:33 |
| khunter619 | bassliner: did you run 64 bit edition of windows? | 22:34 |
| Slart | khunter619: I think linux is way ahead on the move to 64bit.. I've only run into some proprietary security related firefox plugin that wasn't available for 64bit.. everything else seems to be ok | 22:34 |
| joshuah | merischino: what errors are you getting? are you using grub? what version of windows do you have? | 22:34 |
| bassliner | khunter619: no. | 22:34 |
| DJ_HaMsTa | How can i get my ubuntu desktop looking like this ? http://lh3.ggpht.com/_89u_lEORvd8/S96PTVV31_I/AAAAAAAAPZM/Wg-GLIb--rU/Screenshot.jpg | 22:35 |
| DJ_HaMsTa | thanks | 22:35 |
| sharperguy | Nobody knows about vlc sout access modules then? | 22:35 |
| bassliner | khunter619: running 32 bit applications on 64bit cpu's is usually just a library problem anyways, or am i mistaken? | 22:35 |
| Slart | DJ_HaMsTa: it looks like the cairo dock.. and chromium.. the browser | 22:35 |
| j800r | DJ_HaMsTa, install docky from the repos | 22:35 |
| blue_anna | DJ_HaMsTa: 10.10? | 22:36 |
| onetinsoldier | bassliner: if you install 64-bit version of Ubuntu, then install the ia32-libs, you'll probably have what you're looking for | 22:36 |
| DjDark | anyone use IDJC? | 22:36 |
| DJ_HaMsTa | 10.4 | 22:36 |
| DJ_HaMsTa | installing docky atm | 22:36 |
| blue_anna | I actually prefer a windows list at the bottom to a bouncy bar .. having been on mac for so long :) | 22:36 |
| j800r | bouncy bar? | 22:37 |
| merischino | joshuah: running windows xp home sp3. not getting any errors at all. just won't boot past choosing windows | 22:37 |
| bassliner | onetinsoldier: are most ppl not doing that for a good reason? i mean is there one to really not go that way? | 22:37 |
| merischino | no idea if i am using grub. | 22:37 |
| j800r | it's a Dock | 22:37 |
| j800r | lol | 22:37 |
| crogeek | why QuakeLive has LOW FPS on 10.04 ? | 22:37 |
| DJ_HaMsTa | ohhh docky works flawless | 22:37 |
| DJ_HaMsTa | beautiful | 22:37 |
| joshuah | merischino: ok, so you select windows from the menu and it's just a black screen? | 22:37 |
| j800r | DJ_HaMsTa, i know it does. i use it ;) | 22:37 |
| merischino | joshuah, yes. i select windows, and it goes to a black screen with underlined cursor paused at the top left. | 22:38 |
| ocatacoo | gnome panel notification area --- where do people file bugs and find fixes | 22:38 |
| crogeek | why QuakeLive has LOW FPS on 10.04 ? | 22:38 |
| Slart | ocatacoo: about the broken transparency? | 22:38 |
| merischino | installation was from free ubuntu 9.10 disk, with live download/install of upgrade to lynx | 22:38 |
| acemo | 240fps, great openGL is working.. just no sound | 22:39 |
| tripps | what are the repo URLs to manually wget packages for lucid lynx? | 22:39 |
| ocatacoo | no it seems to have puked | 22:39 |
| onetinsoldier | bassliner: i don't know of any reason not too. perhaps that other fellow knows of something that doesn't work with it. device drivers are about the only thing i know that don't work under the 32-bit libs/environment, but there's probably an app or two that doesn't somewhere | 22:39 |

| bassliner | onetinsoldier: i should just give it a try i think | 22:40 |
| ocatacoo | it dont show network or volume and shows the accessibility when I have never used it | 22:40 |
| j800r | tripps, everything you'd need is in the repos anyway pretty much :\ | 22:40 |
| onetinsoldier | bassliner: i would if i were you ;-) | 22:40 |
| j800r | i'd recommend adding the medibuntu repos as well though | 22:40 |

| onetinsoldier | khunter619: ok | 22:40 |
| joshuah | merischino: do you have your xp install disc? usually you can fix the windows bootloader with that, and then use an ubuntu livecd to fix the bootloader you have now (grub). I have to go now, but will be back in a bit, check here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows or search the web for "repair grub ubuntu" | 22:40 |
| tripps | LjL, k thx | 22:41 |
| DJ_HaMsTa | Now i have Docky and the bottom ubuntu window, should i get rid of that by removing it ? | 22:41 |
| acemo | ohh that was easy, the PCM slider was all the way down as default | 22:41 |
| merischino | joshuah: no. this is a an old former work computer my ex was given, free, stripped of everything, when the company closed. | 22:41 |

| khunter619 | Does Rosetta Stone work on Ubuntu/linux? | 22:42 |
| joshuah | merischino: check that link, there may be a way to do it from inside ubuntu, otherwise search for the recovery discs online. I know neosmart has some for win7/vista | 22:42 |
| LiohAu | i'm using this line (found in a HOWTO) "fakeroot make-kpkg --initrd –-append-to-version=-custom kernel_image kernel_headers", isn't there a parameter to improve compilation time ? like using X cores? | 22:42 |

| ocatacoo | Slart: do they have issues with icons not working ???? | 22:45 |
| DJ_HaMsTa | Cyl, google Broadcom BCM4312 ubuntu driver. and it will be the first search result | 22:45 |
| Loshki | khunter619: certain versions of Rosetta Stone do, under certain versions of wine, per http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=10043 | 22:46 |

| merischino | thank you. couldn't figure out why my command kept erroring out as unavailable. | 22:48 |
| hou5ton | I would really like to solve this problem ... been messing with it for a long time .... I am running 10.04 on a laptop ... have downloaded every codec, etc. I know to get, but it still won't play embedded media. For example, I love to watch documentaries ... so if I go here, http://topdocumentaryfilms.com/independent-media-in-a-time-of-war/ ... it will not play that media ... but if I go to it on YouTube, it plays it just fine. | 22:48 |
| CyL | sebsebseb: Yes.. I did the procedure outlined in the bot link... it looks like the hardware is detected, but it never finds a network... | 22:48 |
| sebsebseb | merischino: you have an account from decades ago? How long has Freenode been around? | 22:48 |
| sebsebseb | CyL: yeah Ubuntu and wireless, common issue, but they aren't all the same tiher | 22:48 |
| |corpse| | Hi, im having trouble installing server 10.04. i can cruz right though the hole install process until i get to the file partition part. I can select my partition i want to use (i have tried several drives now) and every time it will just straight to 33% and freeze up | 22:49 |
| sebsebseb | CyL: right so, you could try Ndiswrapper next, which lets people use Windows drivers, and if no luck with that, you could try another distro, and I know of two where your wireless might just work | 22:49 |
| CyL | sebsebseb: interestingly some users report it works for them, when they're using the same hardware as me | 22:49 |
| sebsebseb | CyL: well then I guess your doing it wrong | 22:49 |
| khunter619 | Loshki: thanks will take a look | 22:50 |

| |corpse| | sebsebseb: yeah, havnt gotten a response there, it does the same with desktop ver. | 22:51 |
| sebsebseb | CyL: I have no experience either, however I know a bit when it comes to wireless. Last time I tried to get a wireless device working was in 2004, with Fedora Core 2, using my first Linux distro. This was also a bit before Ubuntu even existed. I didn't know what to do with Ndiswrapper at the time so gave up soon after. | 22:52 |

| sebsebseb | CyL: anyway 1. try and get it working natively which you were doing. 2. try Nidswrapper with a Windows driver. 3. still not working try another distro | 22:53 |

| sebsebseb | CyL: I wonder how many people have gone back to Windows, since they couldn't get their wireless working in Ubuntu, and never tried distros such as Mandriva or PC Linux OS from the Live CD, where well yours will probably just work. So maybe if you don't want to do number 2 Ndiswrapper you should try number 3. Well good luck getting your wireless working in a Linux distro. | 22:57 |

| juju2143 | hi, I have UNR 10.04, I installed the poulsbo drivers and restarted X, then the icons won't show anymore, what I do? | 23:04 |
| sebsebseb | Ashfire908: thats for the default black or grey theme, amibiance radience whatever they are called | 23:04 |
| DigiJo | wifi works, but seems to be very slow and loses connection | 23:04 |
| juju2143 | it's annoying | 23:04 |
| sebsebseb | Ashfire908: if you use another theme they will beo n the right like before, oh and loads of people complained about the buttons being moved when 10.04 was in development | 23:04 |
| khunter619 | sebsebseb: I need to do it again, this time with linux app | 23:04 |
| Loshki | |corpse|: well, it's unlikely that all 4 drives would develop the same fault: I would suspect some incompatibility between your mobo and Ubuntu. Try 8.04 instead? | 23:04 |

| joshuah | merischino: did you get it figured out? | 23:05 |
| khunter619 | sebsebseb: I can't boot into my Windows partition | 23:05 |
| mkquist | Ashfire908: i found if you just change the theme to one with the buttons where they were, it does it for you | 23:05 |
| [AWE] | When I fire up my Ubuntu VM it works fine but if I subsequently 'shutdown 0' when it restarts there a failure to do with rsyslog and from then on I can't connect via ssh | 23:05 |
| mkquist | Ashfire908: sry, delayed response | 23:05 |
| Ashfire908 | sebsebseb, Thank you, that was surprisingly painless. | 23:06 |

| ubottu | navatwo: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." | 23:07 |
| Greek-Boy | my gconf says it filed to connect to the configuration server, I get something like Conf-CRITICAL **: gconf_value_free: assertion `value != NULL' failed. i googled but can't seem to find a solution for my case. This started happening after distro-upgrade when trying to run mythbackend | 23:08 |
| sebsebseb | khunter619: apparantly unetbootin can do your bootable Windows USB | 23:09 |
| khunter619 | sebsebseb: I had Win 7 partition which came preloaded with my netbook; then I installed Ubuntu (which installed Grub); I made a new partition using Gparted to install XP; however when running the XP setup it started causing problems as in it boots win 7 instead; so I deleted win 7 partition; then no OS was loading; so I used my USB live cd to fix GRUB | 23:09 |
| Slart | navatwo: one thing to try is to run "xev" in a terminal, press space and see what keycode and keysym it reports | 23:09 |
| sebsebseb | khunter619: thats unetbootin | 23:09 |
| undecim | navatwo: Can you use space in the grub menu? (reboot, and if you don't usually get the menu, hold left-shift as your computer boots to get to the grub menu) | 23:09 |
| khunter619 | sebsebseb: I already tried Unetbootin; | 23:09 |
| khunter619 | sebsebseb: Unetbootin could Not make Win XP setup bootable | 23:10 |
| santisnight | OK so i just set up a dual boot with XP and ubuntu 10.04 and XP (which is professional ed) doesn't want to load. both OS are on seperate hard drives. what happens when i select XP out of the GRUB Loader is it goes to a black screen with a blinking "_". help please | 23:10 |
| khunter619 | Yup I have same problem as santisnight | 23:11 |
| mkquist | khunter619: so you want to boot into windows again? | 23:11 |
| santisnight | yyes. | 23:11 |
| santisnight | er. | 23:11 |
| sebsebseb | khunter619: Have you got Windows on another computer? | 23:11 |
| khunter619 | I added XP to Custom40 something | 23:11 |
| santisnight | *similar problem similar awnser* | 23:11 |
| chipmank | stutterer? | 23:11 |
| DigiJo | any help? ubuntu netbook remix 10.04, asus eeepc 701 4g, atheros wifi chipset ar5bxb63, wifi doesnt work properly | 23:11 |
| khunter619 | to make GRUB list XP | 23:12 |
| Slart | santisnight: you're using the normal grub 2 that came with 10.04? you have run the "sudo update-grub" command? | 23:12 |
| khunter619 | mkquist: yes I would like to boot into windows again | 23:12 |
| ActionParsnip | DigiJo: if you run: sudo iwlist scan do you see SSIDs? | 23:12 |
| Loshki | navatwo: can you try booting some other distro e.g. windows, to see if it's a harware or software issue... | 23:12 |
| navatwo | Its0~being0~recognized0~as0~F9 | 23:12 |
| DigiJo | let me check | 23:12 |
| mkquist | khunter619: looks like you need to reinstall windows, if you 'deleted win 7 partition'... | 23:12 |
| undecim | khunter619: I'm pretty good with boot problems, but a little behind on your conversation. What's the problem? | 23:12 |
| Acorn | how can I troubleshoot not being able to access a certain website in ubuntu? | 23:12 |
| Slart | Acorn: what kind of error do you get? | 23:13 |
| santisnight | I'm using the GRUB that installed with 10.04. (i actually installed.. i think 9.14 i think... because my computer wouldn't detect my DVD drive when trying from the DVD. | 23:13 |
| sebsebseb | khunter619: I am asking some guys else where by the way | 23:13 |
| ActionParsnip | Acorn: what messages do you get, and what sites? | 23:13 |
| navatwo | Slart: its0~being0~recognized0~as0~`F9' | 23:13 |
| khunter619 | undecim: I have ISO file for Win XP pro which I downloaded from MSDN. I want to dual boot Ubuntu + XP. I am currently on Ubuntu. I need an application that will make the Win XP setup into USB boot disk; plus any suggestion in advance so I don't break Grub; Unetbootin doesn't work because XP setup uses NTLDR (NT loader) to boot into XP setup. | 23:13 |
| santisnight | PS: XP was installed first :P | 23:13 |
| sebsebseb | khunter619: anyway yeah you need to use a Windows CD to fix its boot loader, also | 23:14 |
| Acorn | Slart, ActionParsnip: when i try and log into any google service it just doesn't load, it tries to connect and then just gets to a white page.. | 23:14 |
| DigiJo | yes it sees ssids on wlan0 | 23:14 |
| Acorn | no problem with any other website | 23:14 |
| sebsebseb | khunter619: I know you can boot more than one Windows install from a Windows boot loader menu. however well ##windows can help with that | 23:14 |
| DjDark | idjc anyone | 23:14 |
| Slart | navatwo: what keycode? what keysym? | 23:14 |
| khunter619 | mkquist: but I installed XP partition fully | 23:14 |
| tripps | ok so I've downloaded and extracted b43-fcutter firmware files using instructions at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=781747 but I don't get anything listed under "hardware drivers" after doing so. I've verified the files are there under the /lib/firmware/b43 and b43legacy directories. what now? | 23:14 |
| sebsebseb | khunter619: then once you got Windows booting like that, you will have to reconfigure Grub anyway | 23:14 |
| sebsebseb | khunter619: its Ubuntu 10.04? | 23:14 |
| mkquist | khunter619: have you tried updateing grub? | 23:14 |
| santisnight | brb | 23:14 |
| mkquist | khunter619: to see if it finds xp? | 23:14 |
| ActionParsnip | Acorn: try a different browser. you can also try logging on a another user to see if it is settings which are bad | 23:14 |
| undecim | khunter619: What have you got so far? | 23:15 |
| khunter619 | mkquist: yes, I already tried sudo update-grub | 23:15 |
| sebsebseb | khunter619: you need Windows booting first | 23:15 |
| khunter619 | mkquist: it doesnt detect XP | 23:15 |
| sebsebseb | khunter619: really | 23:15 |
| Slart | Acorn: hmm.. works fine here.. might be a local thing.. hard to tell | 23:15 |
| sebsebseb | khunter619: with its bootloader, then sort Grub out | 23:15 |
| navatwo | keycode 75 (keysym 0xffc6, F9) | 23:15 |
| DigiJo | its connected to my router, but data rate is extrem slow and unstable, allways goes up to 500kb/sec then down to 0, waits for 2 minutes then goes up again to full speed | 23:15 |
| ActionParsnip | tripps: if you use a wired connection, your life will be losts easier | 23:16 |
| DigiJo | encyption is wpa tkip | 23:16 |
| Acorn | Slart: I suppose I can try booting back into windows and see if there's a problem, doubt there will be though | 23:16 |
| sebsebseb | khunter619: or get rid of Windows, and use Ubuntu on the net book :) | 23:16 |
| navatwo | Slart: keycode 75 (keysym 0xffc6, F9) | 23:16 |
| tripps | ActionParsnip, yes I"m aware. :) That's not an option, however | 23:16 |
| mkquist | khunter619: your on ubuntu right now? on the problem machine? | 23:16 |
| Slart | navatwo: oh.. it seems to work now.. or? | 23:16 |
| khunter619 | mkquist: yes | 23:16 |
| navatwo | nope0~copy0~paste | 23:16 |
| navatwo | :p | 23:16 |
| ActionParsnip | tripps: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx | 23:17 |
| ActionParsnip | tripps: shows you how to use the files on the install cd. | 23:17 |
| khunter619 | undecim: I made changes to /etc/grub.d/40_custom | 23:17 |
| Slart | navatwo: ah, sneaky.. well.. keycode 75 on my regular desktop keyboard is indeed f9.. perhaps your keyboard is special in some way.. let me check the settings..see if there's anything useful in there | 23:17 |
| khunter619 | menuentry "Microsoft Windows XP (on /dev/sda5)" { | 23:18 |

| FloodBot3 | khunter619: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 23:18 |
| undecim | khunter619: You shouldn't have to mess with /etc/grub.d... Do you alread have XP installed? | 23:18 |
| khunter619 | undecim: Yes XP is installed but Grub doesnt detect it | 23:18 |
| undecim | khunter619: How did you get it installed? | 23:18 |
| khunter619 | undecim: I tried sudo update-grub & sudo update-grub2 | 23:19 |
| santisnight | Slart, just did and tried, no dice, still the blinking underscore of death. | 23:19 |
| Slart | navatwo: for example.. in preference, keyboard there's something called Keyboard model.. mine is set to "Generic 105-key (intl) pc" .. there seems to be about a gazillion different models to choose from | 23:19 |
| khunter619 | undecim: I created a USB setup disk using Wintoflash | 23:19 |
| rwhr | Hi everyone. When I am watching a MOV or MP4 file the processor goes to 100% useage, but when I watch a DVD, it hardly gets used. Is this a decoder problem? Both times I am using VLC player. Is it possible to fix this? | 23:19 |
| khunter619 | undecim: now my usb disk has Ubuntu netbook edition setup | 23:19 |
| Slart | santisnight: hmm.. haven't dual booted with xp in a while.. I have no problems booting windows 7 from grub 2 though.. and with the new autodetecting there isn't a lot to configure | 23:19 |
| wildbat | morning~ | 23:19 |
| ActionParsnip | rwhr: tried a different player? | 23:19 |
| undecim | khunter619: You installed it to sda5? I don't think windows can boot from a logical partition. | 23:20 |
| mgolisch | rwhr: is this hd videos? maybe your cpu is too weak | 23:20 |
| rwhr | ActionParsnip: Yes. Same effect. | 23:20 |
| onetinsoldier | rwhr: what kind of cpu does the system have? | 23:20 |
| santisnight | Slart, it sees it as it is on the boot-list. (if thats what you mean by detecting) any other ideas? | 23:20 |
| jasunto | anyone try system76 lemur? | 23:20 |
| rwhr | mgolisch: I'll check the resolution of it.. | 23:21 |
| ActionParsnip | rwhr: is there a bug logged for it? | 23:21 |
| rwhr | onetinsoldier: turion64 1g7 from memory.. | 23:21 |
| Slart | santisnight: not really.. with the old grub you could check the menu.lst.. but with the new grub I don't think it's possible | 23:21 |
| khunter619 | undecim: it is sda3 & sda5; sda3 being the extended partition and sda5 being the NTFS partition | 23:21 |
| ActionParsnip | jasunto: looks expensive for what it is | 23:22 |
| undecim | khunter619: Try installing it to a primary partition (sda1-sda4) and then run sudo update-grub | 23:22 |
| onetinsoldier | rwhr: roger. it might be a little weak for the file you're trying to play. not sure. but yes, decoders take some cpu for sure | 23:22 |
| khunter619 | undecim: But I need to make XP setup bootable first (using Ubuntu) | 23:22 |
| tripps | ActionParsnip, many thanks that helped. :) | 23:22 |
| wildbat | khunter619, that didn't boo the XP? | 23:22 |
| wildbat | khunter619, boot* | 23:23 |
| khunter619 | wildbat: no only the cursor came | 23:23 |
| santisnight | Slart, okay is there ANY possible way to get it running? like a fresh install maybe? i have all my data backed up anyhow so a fresh install is doable with no issues... | 23:23 |
| khunter619 | wildbat: _ | 23:23 |
| khunter619 | wildbat: and black screen | 23:23 |
| ActionParsnip | tripps: cool, getting updates will help | 23:23 |
| undecim | khunter619: I'm pretty sure that XP needs to be on a primary partition to boot. | 23:23 |
| rwhr | mgolisch: onetinsoldier I'd say the lack of CPU power is the problem, the files are: 1280x720 H.264/AVC @ 60fps! | 23:23 |
| Slart | santisnight: I have no idea if a fresh install will change anything, sorry | 23:24 |
| santisnight | Slart, ok, thanks anyhow. | 23:24 |
| onetinsoldier | rwhr: roger that. video driver can make a difference to i believe | 23:24 |
| onetinsoldier | and video card model | 23:24 |
| santisnight | khunter619, what have you trued so far? (so i may try also and see the results.) | 23:24 |
| rwhr | Thanks all! I think I'll have to convert them before I watch them next time on my laptop - any suggestions to a good video converter? | 23:24 |
| onetinsoldier | rwhr: winff/ffmpeg | 23:25 |
| ikonia | rwhr: mencoder | 23:25 |
| ActionParsnip | rwhr: winff or handbrake are gui tings but mencoder is brilliant | 23:25 |
| undecim | khunter619: If you reinstall XP to a primary partition, not an extended/logical, it will be detected by grub and will boot. | 23:25 |
| mgolisch | if its a dualcore cpu you could try ffmpeg-mt | 23:25 |
| navatwo | Slart: I've0~already0~tried0~changing0~that | 23:25 |
| cjdevlin | santisnight: have you ever dual booted? or is this a new endeavor? | 23:25 |
| rwhr | onetinsoldier: I just tried playing it in XINE (I didn't know that I had it) and it works, just.. Still 100% but minimal frame losses, I think I'll down covert it though.. | 23:25 |
| undecim | khunter619: On a logical paritition, XP won't boot without third party boot utilities | 23:25 |
| Slart | navatwo: what's the brand and model of the laptop? | 23:26 |
| ikonia | undecim: xp would be deected on an extended logical partition too | 23:26 |
| onetinsoldier | rwhr: :-) | 23:26 |
| mgolisch | or if you have a graphics chip that support offlifiting of some of the decoding that might help too for h264 | 23:26 |
| cjdevlin | navatwo: this sounds like a hardware problem. step one is try another keyboard. | 23:26 |
| Minotauro | Hi, I'm upgrade from ubuntu 9.10 to 10.4 but I have a wired behavior with gtk file-selector widget. For example, I'm using gmail from firefox or epiphany and try to attach a file, then at gtk file-selector widget start typing to jump to my file, when I reach my file it get selected but then a "pseudo-selection" appear and start moving upwards my file, so, when I click the "open" button gmail attach another file and not the file I selected. The same is | 23:26 |
| Minotauro | for emesene, f-spot and I think any app using the gtk file-selector, any help? | 23:26 |
| khunter619 | I used WintoFlash (inside Win7) to make XP ISO bootable on USB drive; I was able to boot XP with the flash drive; then I erased flash drive to put Ubuntu Live CD to fix Grub | 23:26 |
| mzuverink | what is the loin info for live cd of lucid | 23:26 |
| navatwo | Slart: Asus0~laptop0~keyboard.0~cjdevlin0~I0~can't... | 23:26 |
| exarkun | How does libvirt discover storage images? | 23:27 |
| khunter619 | Now I need a linux app that will make XP ISO bootable on USB drive on | 23:27 |
| exarkun | It's missing some of mine. | 23:27 |
| rwhr | Single core only. I'll convert it on my main machine (Core 2 Quad) and then transfer it back.. was a little embarrasing when I wanted to show an in car camera on the projector to the car club the other week... | 23:27 |
| ikonia | mzuverink: there is no login, it auto logs you in as boot | 23:27 |
| mgolisch | khunter619: i dont know of any | 23:27 |
| mzuverink | not mine | 23:27 |
| santisnight | cjdevlin, yeah new endeavor, but my data and everything is backed up safely so... | 23:27 |
| mzuverink | it goes to login | 23:27 |
| ikonia | mzuverink: then you don't have a valid cd | 23:27 |
| santisnight | cjdevlin, worse comes to worse i scrap it and fresh install XP | 23:27 |
| mgolisch | khunter619: stuff like unetbooting only supports isolinux based cds | 23:27 |
| mzuverink | md5 mTCH | 23:27 |
| Slart | navatwo: can you be a bit more specific? the keyboard on my asus laptop works without any problems | 23:27 |
| mzuverink | MATCH | 23:27 |
| cjdevlin | santisnight: are you trying to dual boot both from the hard drive? | 23:28 |
| mkquist | khunter619: might try looking at the drives with gparted and see if the windows partition is flagged as bootable? | 23:28 |
| navatwo | Slart: mine0~did0~as0~well,0~but0~it0~*suddenly*0~started0~working | 23:28 |
| ikonia | mzuverink: then you need to make sure it's booting from the CD and not your disk as the cd auto logs you in | 23:28 |
| undecim | mkquist: That doesn't make a difference to grub | 23:28 |
| santisnight | cjdevlin, both from the same hard drive? no. actually my ubuntu is running from an external hard drive. | 23:29 |
| khunter619 | mkquist: wait I will upload screenshot of gparted | 23:29 |
| santisnight | cjdevlin, but the XP is on the master drive internal the computer. | 23:29 |
| ActionParsnip | khunter619: http://wiki.eeeuser.com/windowsxpusb | 23:29 |
| owenll | navatwo: can you boot from a live cd to see if the propblem persists? | 23:29 |
| mkquist | undecim: if he installed windows after ubuntu it should have made itself bootable and made it miss grub on boot | 23:29 |
| cjdevlin | santisnight: i don't know how far you have gotten w/ the research on this, but there were known issues w/ dual booting. xp has to be installed first. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBoot | 23:30 |
| navatwo | owenll: yeah,0~probably | 23:30 |
| navatwo | I0~can0~try0~in0~windows0~7 | 23:30 |
| khunter619 | mkquist: http://i50.tinypic.com/23uahaa.jpg | 23:30 |
| undecim | mkquist: From what I understood he is trying to get XP to boot from grub. | 23:30 |
| mkquist | undecim: how many web pages are devoted to fixing grub after windows installs? | 23:30 |
| Slart | navatwo: can you pastebin the output from "xmodmap -pke" ? | 23:30 |
| santisnight | cjdevlin, i know that and it was. | 23:30 |
| mkquist | undecim: he is, but from what i gather, he installed windows after... is that correct khunter619? | 23:30 |
| fatum | Why was the ability to theme the login screen removed from 10.04? | 23:31 |
| mkquist | khunter619: windows installed after ubuntu? | 23:31 |
| santisnight | cjdevlin, there is a way to do it pre XP but its annoyingly complicated. | 23:31 |
| dereks | hello. i have a webcam attached as /dev/video0. everything is good but the picture is upsidedown (due to how its mounted)... is there a way to fix this? | 23:31 |
| khunter619 | mkquist: yes after ubuntu | 23:31 |
| undecim | khunter619: Can you download and run the boot info script (http://sourceforge.net/projects/bootinfoscript/) and post a pastebin of the output? It should clear up some confusion. | 23:32 |
| khunter619 | ActionParsnip: those instruction are for Windows users | 23:32 |
| mkquist | khunter619: well xindows is definitely NOT on a primary... | 23:32 |
| mkquist | undecim: did you see his pastebin? | 23:32 |
| ActionParsnip | khunter619: got a windows system available? | 23:32 |
| undecim | mkquist: no | 23:33 |
| khunter619 | ActionParsnip: no | 23:33 |
| === jar349 is now known as jar349_ | ||
| fatum | Was there a specific reason for removing the ability to theme the login screen in Ubuntu 10.04? | 23:33 |
| === jar349_ is now known as jar349 | ||
| mkquist | undecim: http://i50.tinypic.com/23uahaa.jpg | 23:33 |
| khunter619 | undecim: how do I run it? | 23:33 |
| ikonia | fatum: it's for forward compatability to gnome3 | 23:34 |
| khunter619 | undecim: it is .sh file | 23:34 |
| ActionParsnip | fatum: its very possible | 23:34 |
| undecim | khunter619: Open a terminal, cd to the directory it downloaded to (cd Downloads), and run "sudo bash boot_info_script*.sh" | 23:34 |
| fatum | Completely dropped GDM themes? | 23:35 |
| onetinsoldier | personally, i think they should have gnome3, to gnome3 | 23:35 |
| ikonia | fatum: no, but awakrward to use | 23:35 |
| onetinsoldier | personally, i think they should have left* gnome3, to gnome3 | 23:35 |
| santisnight | cjdevlin, still there? | 23:35 |
| ikonia | 9what ? | 23:36 |
| ikonia | onetinsoldier: what ? | 23:36 |
| ActionParsnip | fatum: if you run: sudo cp /usr/share/applications/gnome-appearance-properties.desktop /usr/share/gdm/autostart/LoginWindow then logoff, you will be able to select the wallpaper you want. you can then login. You MUST then run: sudo unlink /usr/share/gdm/autostart/LoginWindow/gnome-appearance-properties.desktop | 23:36 |
| undecim | khunter619: mkquist: I have to go to the store, but will be back | 23:36 |
| brax | Can I use VirtualBox to run the OS on my other partition? | 23:36 |
| khunter619 | undecim: http://paste.pocoo.org/show/218715/ | 23:36 |
| ActionParsnip | brax: no, it allows you to install an OS as a vbox | 23:36 |
| onetinsoldier | ikonia: seems kind of half-baked. is all of lucid's gnome forward compat with gnome3 then? | 23:37 |
| ikonia | undecim: you can with kvm though | 23:37 |
| ikonia | onetinsoldier: it's nothing to do with ubuntu - it' a gnome thing, | 23:37 |
| brax | Okay. Is there any way to run the OS on my other partition without restarting? | 23:37 |
| onetinsoldier | ikonia: yeah.. i know what you mean | 23:37 |
| cjdevlin | santisnight: yes | 23:37 |
| ikonia | brax: no, kvm is your best bet | 23:37 |
| brax | Okeydoke. | 23:38 |
| santisnight | cjdevlin, Any ideas? | 23:38 |
| ActionParsnip | brax: you may be able to P2V it to make a virtualbox but you will have duplicated the system and tey will be independant of each other | 23:38 |
| con-man | am I have issues with lag and psm-linux streaming videos, can someone here help me or find me an irc channel that can | 23:39 |
| onetinsoldier | ikonia: gnome made our version of gdm forward compat with gnome3... what for? after all, i'm not using gnome3 | 23:39 |
| ikonia | onetinsoldier: no idea of the full story, ask the developers | 23:39 |
| onetinsoldier | ikonia: i hear ya | 23:39 |
| lexvegas | does anyone know how to start networking in a text only console? i cant get it to work in 10.04 | 23:40 |
| ikonia | lexvegas: you'll need to configure /etc/network/interfaces file and restart networking using the init script | 23:40 |
| ikonia | lexvegas: or you can manually configure each network card with ifoncifg/ip adr, and route | 23:40 |
| lexvegas | ikonia, thanks | 23:42 |
| cjdevlin | santisnight: sorry, i was rereading all of the stuff to make sure i have everything straight. you are using ubuntu 9.04, booting xp from the hard drive and ubuntu from an external. you get the windows loader, but when you select xp it doesn't boot? | 23:42 |

| sCOTTo | hey guys, hamachi VPN - is there any faults I should know about which would compromise my security ? | 23:43 |
| santisnight | cjdevlin, no i have ubuntu 10.04, and when trying to load from the GRUB 2 loader ubuntu boots fine while XP pro just gets a blinking underscore. | 23:44 |
| santisnight | cjdevlin, but yes the internal has XP external has linux, and windows fails to load. | 23:44 |
| ph0n7r1c | does anyone know how i can change the resolution of my computer in U10.4 | 23:44 |
| ikonia | ph0n7r1c: system->preferences->monitor | 23:45 |
| === thibow is now known as thb|Ou7 | ||
| ph0n7r1c | i have looked for the xorg.config file in /etc/X11 but no file | 23:45 |
| ikonia | ph0n7r1c: system->preferences->monitor | 23:46 |
| onetinsoldier | ph0n7r1c: in 10.04, by default, there isn't one | 23:46 |
| ph0n7r1c | my monitor supports 1600X1200 but it does not show up on the GUI | 23:46 |
| ph0n7r1c | so where is the config read from then | 23:47 |
| ikonia | ph0n7r1c: what video card do you have ? | 23:47 |
| ph0n7r1c | some other directory | 23:47 |
| red2kic | ph0n7r1c: 800x600 is nice. IMO. | 23:47 |
| cjdevlin | santisnight: http://bootinfoscript.sourceforge.net/ | 23:47 |
| red2kic | ph0n7r1c: Try "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xorg" | 23:47 |
| Vroomfondle | ph0n7r1c: the configuration is auto-generated these days, in theory | 23:47 |
| ph0n7r1c | 01:05.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: ATI Technologies Inc RS690 [Radeon X1200 Series] [1002:791e] | 23:47 |
| ikonia | ph0n7r1c: ok - ati, have you enabled the propritary drivers in "hardware drivers" gui ? | 23:48 |
| ikonia | ph0n7r1c: have you checked the driver support on this card ? | 23:48 |
| ph0n7r1c | when i run Hardware drives GUI nothing shows up | 23:49 |
| red2kic | ph0n7r1c: "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" Sorry. :3 That should generate a Xorg. | 23:49 |
| wildbat | khunter619, hmm try to make the ntfs bootable and see ~ if not you may need to move the windows XP to a primary partition. | 23:49 |
| mkquist | khunter619: sry for lag, reading up, it does look like windows can be installed on a logical partition, it just looks like it wants to boot from a primary... check this outhttp://www.zyxware.com/articles/2008/07/20/how-to-install-and-boot-windows-on-a-logical-parition | 23:49 |
| lexvegas | wildbat, i may be wrong, but i think i remember reading somewhere that Windows needs to be on a primary partition to work | 23:50 |
| ikonia | ph0n7r1c: ok then your card isn't supported by the current drivers pre-installed in ubuntu, you need to check version support for that card as ati drops support for devices quite a lot | 23:50 |
| ph0n7r1c | umm just wondering if the other cause could be that i have an AOC LCD 24inc | 23:50 |
| mkquist | khunter619: and another saying same, but shorter... http://www.sousuke.org/wiki/Installing_Windows_on_a_logical_partition | 23:50 |
| con-man | am I have issues with lag and psm-linux streaming videos, can someone here help me or find me an irc channel that can | 23:50 |
| ikonia | ph0n7r1c: very possible, but very very doubtful | 23:50 |
| ikonia | con-man: we are not a channel searching service, this is ubuntu support | 23:51 |
| wildbat | lexvegas, well ~ may be but setting the boot flag is faster then moving the partition ~ why not try that | 23:51 |
| onetinsoldier | red2kic: just an fyi, but every time i've seen someone advise this to someone as a way to generate an xorg.conf file in lucid, the other person comes back saying that it didn't ;-) | 23:51 |
| lexvegas | wildbat, good point | 23:51 |
| IdleOne | How do I print from the CLI? | 23:51 |
| mkquist | khunter619: personally i always install windows first on a primary to avoid problems, but looks like it can be done.. | 23:51 |
| ikonia | onetinsoldier: right, it wont as there is nothing there for it to parse first time around | 23:52 |
| ikonia | IdleOne: lp | 23:52 |
| tripelb | wildbat: definitely windows needs to be on a primary partition to work (as do some unix...) | 23:52 |
| red2kic | onetinsoldier: Oh I should say "sudo -i" then. :( | 23:52 |
| ikonia | IdleOne: or lpr depending on your setup | 23:52 |
| ph0n7r1c | i think so because went through forum but nothing say anything about X1200 only X1300 | 23:52 |
| IdleOne | thank you | 23:52 |
| mkquist | wildbat: check the links i gave to khunter619 | 23:52 |
| IdleOne | ikonia: thank you | 23:52 |
| onetinsoldier | ikonia: ahh, i see | 23:52 |
| onetinsoldier | red2kic: no. don't think the sudo has anything to do with it. see what ikonioa said above | 23:52 |
| santisnight | cjdevlin, http://paste.ubuntu.com/440102/ | 23:52 |
| khunter619 | mkquist: I am reading the links you gave. | 23:53 |
| tripelb | con-man, PM | 23:53 |
| onetinsoldier | red2kic: but yes, sudo would be needed for that command | 23:53 |
| mkquist | santisnight: i think you have grub confused... lol | 23:54 |
| tobydeh | HI, i have dirs created and owned by www-data. My admin user is part of the group www-data, and the dirs has chmod g+w so why can admin write to the dir?? | 23:54 |
| tobydeh | why cant** | 23:54 |
| mkquist | santisnight: you booting ubuntu from external right? xp from internal... | 23:55 |
| mkquist | santisnight: your* | 23:55 |
| santisnight | mkquist, yeah... | 23:55 |
| ikonia | tobydeh: log out and back in the admin user - then do an "id" to make sure it's part of the group | 23:55 |
| tobydeh | ahhh i didnt know i had to log out! | 23:55 |
| tobydeh | thanks so much ikonia | 23:56 |
| infid | how can i have ubuntu notify me when i get a new gmail? | 23:56 |
| tobydeh | is there a wuicker way of realoding without logging out? | 23:56 |
| ikonia | IdleOne: setup the mail notify icon in the top right of your screen | 23:56 |
| tripelb | is 10.04 more fussy to boot up than 9.10 ? ---- (if anyone has been hearing my freezing issue for months, finally it is clear I have really really bad ram. memtest now shows errors. So my work is cut out for me, alas) | 23:56 |
| ikonia | IdleOne: sorry - not you | 23:56 |
| santisnight | mkquist, thoughts? | 23:56 |
| mkquist | santisnight: and what doesnt boot again? | 23:56 |
| wildbat | mkquist, looks like windows allow to be chainloaded from primary ~ seem to me the mbr only scan the boot loader in primary partition , but i may be wrong thou ~ | 23:56 |
| ikonia | infid: setup the mail notify icon in the top right of yourscreen | 23:56 |
| nefast | Hi everyone, I have a problem getting ranger installed. | 23:56 |
| tripelb | infid, I do believe there are chrome extensions/addons/plugins for that! | 23:56 |
| santisnight | mkquist, Windows XP Professional Edition. SP3 | 23:57 |
| mkquist | wildbat: right, that the way i read it, so khunter619 will have to make a small primary to boot windows in his current config | 23:57 |
| tripelb | infid, also gmail will send a notice to your mobile phone if you like. | 23:57 |
| cjdevlin | santisnight: have you seen this thread: http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/bootinfoscript/index.php?title=Boot_Problems:Boot_Sector | 23:57 |
| mkquist | santisnight: so grub shows, then what, when you choose windows? | 23:58 |
| khunter619 | mkquist: how would I go about making this primary? | 23:58 |
| lexvegas | ikonia, there is a program called checkgmail | 23:58 |
| mkquist | khunter619: lemme look back at you gedit paste | 23:58 |
| santisnight | cjdevlin, nope | 23:58 |
| santisnight | mkquist, yeah | 23:58 |
| khunter619 | thnx | 23:58 |
| DeoFavente | question - i bookmarked a folder (web root) in nautilus and changed the icon of the folder to something from /usr/share/icons, even an icon with various matching resoultions, figuring nautilus would render that in the places menu but it doesn't. how do i change the icon in the places menu? | 23:59 |
| tripelb | another question: why does a liveCD have the wrong time (system clock) while the boot from my hard drive has the correct time? | 23:59 |
| lazka | anyone speaking romanian here? | 23:59 |
| santisnight | mkquist, i hit enter on windows, the screen goes black for a bit then it goes to "off-black" with a blinking underscore. | 23:59 |
| wildbat | khunter619, you can do that with gparted khunter619 | 23:59 |
| mkquist | khunter619: youll have to move your swap | 23:59 |
| cjdevlin | tripelb: motherboards all have the *same* time, once you pick a timezone the os does a conversion | 23:59 |
