[00:00] <shomon> hi, I just tried upgrading but had a power failure half way through :(
[00:00] <berryjw> exit
[00:00] <Blade-Runner> john : Set the software source to default ; and try it again.
[00:00] <shomon> I was on 8.04 and got to 8.10. But how can I fix the dependencies and finish the install?
[00:01] <shomon> I've done a dpkg --configure -a
[00:01] <shomon> and it has a couple of broken packages...
[00:01] <Um_cara_qualquer> which program should I use to convert wma -> mp3 ?
[00:01] <shomon> sorry not 8.10, 10.whatever... the lts
[00:01] <eipi-1> john try changing the mirror server in system->admin->software sources->download from. try main server
[00:02] <harkle> Everything's working great; thanks xangua, trism!
[00:03] <csc`> is squid preconfigured to work in ubuntu?
[00:04] <john> thanks folks, have reset to main server, ok so far, thx again....
[00:04] <john> bye
[00:04] <CyL> the language support for my installation is incomplete... how do I update it?
[00:04] <Um_cara_qualquer> does anybody knows how to convert wma to mp3?
[00:05] <csc`> Um_cara_qualquer, try lame
[00:05] <Firefishe> won't grip also do conversion:
[00:05] <Firefishe> ?
[00:05] <csc`> Um_cara_qualquer, actually, ffmpeg might work fine for converting audio
[00:05] <Blade-Runner> csc`,  http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/2006/12/18/convert-mp3-wma-wav-format-ubuntu-6061-610/
[00:06] <csc`> i dont remember what i used back on LFS
[00:06] <pbrook_> hello
[00:06] <pbrook_> i have an ati drivers question
[00:06] <Blade-Runner> csc`,  sorry for that not your link
[00:06] <metalforever> geez, this place is annoying.
[00:06] <Blade-Runner> Um_cara_qualquer : http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/2006/12/18/convert-mp3-wma-wav-format-ubuntu-6061-610/
[00:06] <csc`> metalforever, indeed
[00:06] <pbrook_> does anybody here have experience with fglrx?
[00:06] <csc`> metalforever, and my questions never get answered
[00:07] <csc`> pbrook_, shoot
[00:07] <metalforever> you guys need to write something to disable these joins.
[00:07] <pbrook_> specifically, i am running 10.04 x64 with fglrx
[00:07] <metalforever> whats the question.
[00:07] <pbrook_> and
[00:07] <metalforever> oh noes.
[00:07] <pbrook_> sometimes i have had it work great with compiz
[00:07] <metalforever> threre is not a good end to that story
[00:07] <metalforever> nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[00:07] <pbrook_> as in i can view opengl applications while having transparency
[00:07] <pbrook_> but
[00:07] <metalforever> and good
[00:07] <metalforever> google*
[00:07] <csc`> pbrook_, i may not be able to help you then, im only experienced in fglrx maintenance on the i686 platform, not 64 bit
[00:08] <pbrook_> sometimes, and currently, i get flickering on the gl box
[00:08] <metalforever> same...
[00:08] <pbrook_> and if i try to move the window
[00:08] <csc`> i get that too
[00:08] <pbrook_> the opengl box stays where it is
[00:08] <pbrook_> until i stop moving
[00:08] <Um_cara_qualquer> Blade-Runner, thx man
[00:08] <pbrook_> then it updates its position
[00:08] <csc`> pbrook_, push the window through
[00:08] <csc`> then when it starts, hold it, and it should transfer to the next side
[00:09] <Blade-Runner> :)
[00:09] <pbrook_> sorry for the unclear language
[00:09] <pbrook_> i didn't mean desktop cube
[00:09] <metalforever> google?
[00:09] <pbrook_> i meant the specific box on the screen that is showing the 3d content
[00:09] <saji89> Hi there.. I have a problem with openoffice Presentation..
[00:09] <pbrook_> for example, the black box showing the gears in glxgears
[00:10] <csc`> nmap full portscan on a specified host via terminal?
[00:10] <pbrook_> that black box stays where it is while the window decoration frame moves
[00:10] <pbrook_> and only updates its position when i stop moving the frame
[00:10] <saji89> When i start a slideshow, the two panels on the ubuntu desktop remain there, so the slide is not shown in fullscreen..
[00:10] <saji89> Anybody?
[00:11] <saji89> !openoffice
[00:11] <CyL> saji89: right click and choose to autohide
[00:11] <saji89> CyL, That's what i do now.
[00:11] <elb0w> why is g++ not installing via apt-get
[00:12] <saji89> CyL, But I'm not comfortable with that, as i don't like autohiding panels..
[00:13] <CyL> saji89: I was having the exact same issue here, and solved that way... maybe if you focus the presentation while in full screen
[00:13] <brokuntu> OK guys who's the ubuntu big willy who can help me because I never ever thought I would be thinking this but I'm considering buying windows 7 after being a 15 years UNIX user
[00:13] <brokuntu> this is too much pain
[00:13] <saji89> CyL, i didn't get that...
[00:13] <saji89> CyL, ?
[00:13] <brokuntu> I put text installer onto USB flash drive and installed from it, it seemed to go fine
[00:14] <brokuntu> when i boot the screen goes blank, no signal it seems like its booting and working just no video
[00:14] <Green_> How do i see what is running from the command line?
[00:14] <daniel> hello
[00:14] <ZykoticK9> Green_, "ps aux"
[00:14] <daniel> ?
[00:14] <pbrook_> Green_: use 'top' or 'ps aux'
[00:14] <pbrook_> or download htop
[00:14] <Firefishe> I'm on the live cd of ubuntu 64bit 10.04 LTS.  Is there a way to restart the xserver without borking the entire ramdisk and having to start from scratch?  I need to enable the nvidia proprietary driver.
[00:14] <pbrook_> which is better :)
[00:15] <brokuntu> i know windows will drive me mad when i want to ps auwwx or -eF or whatever but when i turn it on I get a picture this is too much to take
[00:15] <daniel> bye
[00:15] <norrec> is there anyway to use ubuntu to share a firefox profile across a couple different computers?
[00:15] <brokuntu> i've been working on this for hours please i'm begging you to help me
[00:15] <CyL> saji89: what haven't you got?
[00:15] <saji89> CyL, "maybe if you focus the presentation while in full screen"...
[00:16] <o11o1oo1> evening folks. im trying to install a 10.04 ubuntu via the mini cd, setup (expert mode) works great up to the point when i want to hit "install the system". it tells me that an error occured and thats it. i return to the menu
[00:16] <pbrook_> brokuntu: do you have another computer that you could try to ssh into it with?
[00:16] <saji89> CyL, I didn't understand that.
[00:16] <pbrook_> or ping it with even?
[00:16] <Green_> I am going to build a linux kernel, wish me luck! :D
[00:16] <brokuntu> pbrook_: no :(
[00:16] <Blade-Runner> Firefishe, : try this : sudo service gdm restart
[00:16] <CyL> saji89: like trying to press alt+tab to focus in openoffice presentation...
[00:16] <pbrook_> hmm
[00:16] <Firefishe> Blade-Runner:  Ah!  Thank you :).  I had forgotten about that command.
[00:16] <brokuntu> pbrook_: if i could tell ubuntu somehow to just not use graphics it would probably be fine
[00:16] <brokuntu> i can make X work by forcing chipset vesa
[00:16] <brokuntu> but i cant even boot my new install
[00:17] <brokuntu> whatever the booter is i don't know how to force vesa on it
[00:17] <pbrook_> one possibility is to try booting into single user mode
[00:17] <pbrook_> can you even get grub?
[00:17] <saji89> CyL, I tried that tooo...
[00:17] <Blade-Runner> !enter | brokuntu
[00:17] <brokuntu> yeah i can get grub i can choose recovery mode then the monitor loses signal
[00:17] <Firefishe> Blade-Runner:  One concern, though, is that the kernel module is borked.  It *should* be okay, as I installed nvidia-current via apt-get on the command line.  Your thoughts?
[00:17] <saji89> CyL, many of my friends also have that problem, even in ubuntu 9.10..
[00:17] <Ari_Lazarus> Hi guys - as per the mapping page at the wiki I reconfigured xorg.conf so that when my system starts up it would remap certain mousekeys. However, today when I log on I discovered that xorg.conf complains about a 'screen not found' error, and I had to boot X into a different display number. What did I do wrong here?
[00:17] <saji89> CyL, but for me it started in Ubuntu 10.04..
[00:17] <elb0w> The following packages have unmet dependencies:
[00:17] <elb0w>   g++: Depends: g++-4.4 (>= 4.4.3-1) but it is not going to be installed
[00:17] <elb0w> ?
[00:18] <brokuntu> i supply kernal option vga=0 it means nothing
[00:18] <pbrook_> and you removed options like splash?
[00:18] <Blade-Runner> Firefishe, : depends if you installed the correct nvidia drivers
[00:18] <CyL> saji89: I guess it is an "always on top" option missing somewhere
[00:18] <brokuntu> oh yeah
[00:18] <brokuntu> the thing that annoys me the most is i bet if i put fedora on it it would work but i hate them
[00:19] <brokuntu> i want ubuntu on it
[00:19] <pbrook_> :)
[00:19] <Firefishe> Blade-Runner:  Well, I watched it compile the module for the currently running kernel, so I'm *guessing* it's probably okay.
[00:19] <ZykoticK9> brokuntu, just an FYI, but if you are using Lucid "vga=" lines are outdated
[00:19] <brokuntu> ZykoticK9: thanks
[00:19] <pbrook_> i've never had quite the problem you're describing
[00:19] <pbrook_> but
[00:19] <brokuntu> pbrook_: me either in 15 years
[00:19] <Blade-Runner> Firefishe, : then good luck ; give it a try.
[00:19] <CyL> saji89: Sorry, I must move away from the computer now...
[00:19] <Firefishe> Blade-Runner:  Thanks for our help.  *crosses fins*
[00:19] <saji89> CyL, ok bye... And thanks...
[00:20] <brokuntu> if i had another PC i could serial console it but i don't theres nothing i can do except drink and cry
[00:20] <Firefishe> Blade-Runner:  our=your
[00:20] <saji89> When i start a slideshow, the two panels on the ubuntu desktop remain there, so the slide is not shown in fullscreen..
[00:20] <Firefishe> Blade-Runner: Unless one of my *other* personalities.... ;-)  hee  anyway....
[00:20] <saji89> Anyone has a soluion>
[00:20] <pbrook_> well, there isn't too much harm in just trying again. try reformatting the hdd again and reinstalling
[00:20] <saji89> sorry, anyone have any solution?
[00:20] <brokuntu> pbrook_: 6 times repeated this procedure
[00:20] <pbrook_> ah
[00:21] <pbrook_> i figured but i might as well suggest
[00:21] <pbrook_> hmm
[00:21] <Blade-Runner> saji89, : may be you should take the incentives of the above already mention to you.
[00:21] <soupdragon> When will ubuntu 10.04 work on mac?
[00:21] <brokuntu> i need to tell ubuntu to NOT USE ANY GRAPHICS NO NO NO NO just what was available in 1995 somehow
[00:21] <brokuntu> maybe i need to modify one of the startup scripts
[00:21] <saji89> Blade-Runner, i tried that... No use...
[00:21] <pbrook_> hmm
[00:21] <pbrook_> have you tried ubuntu server?
[00:21] <bitkiller> why, after an upgrade, do all packages appear as "installed local or obsolete" in synaptic?
[00:22] <Gnea> brokuntu: throw a gfx card from 1995 in there
[00:22] <brokuntu> once i can login to the HD i can fix the gfx issue with driver from intel
[00:22] <Firefishe> Blade-Runner:  moot point now.  no space left on device.  so much for the live cd.  guess I d/l a copy of kubuntu and burn that.
[00:22] <Firefishe> bye for now
[00:22] <brokuntu> Gnea: mini itx has no pci bus
[00:22] <Blade-Runner> saji89, : That the only way..
[00:22] <brokuntu> and i am broke :)
[00:22] <Gnea> brokuntu: so boot into single-user mode
[00:22] <pbrook_> Gnea: he tried that
[00:22] <Gnea> and?
[00:22] <brokuntu> same
[00:22] <pbrook_> no boot
[00:22] <brokuntu> monitor loses signal
[00:22] <brokuntu> it boots fine
[00:22] <brokuntu> everything is working
[00:22] <brokuntu> it reacts
[00:22] <FloodBot4> brokuntu: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[00:23] <brokuntu> but there is no display
[00:23] <Gnea> so instead of 'single', try 'init=/bin/sh'
[00:23] <Blade-Runner> Firefishe, : I am not familiar with Kubuntu..guess try that.
[00:23] <brokuntu> hmm dirty
[00:23] <Gnea> brokuntu: everything mounts read-only, so you'll have to remount rw if you want to modify anything
[00:23] <h00k> brokuntu: Please don't use Enter as punctuation, keep things all to one line :)
[00:23] <pbrook_> the thing is, removing splash and stuff like that should make it only display text
[00:23] <Gnea> nah, just remember to remount read-only when you're done, before you boot back
[00:23] <elb0w> how do you find faster repo mirrors
[00:23] <elb0w> ?
[00:23] <brokuntu> h00k: bad habit ill try and break it
[00:24] <Gnea> yes, nosplash and removing quiet helps, too
[00:24] <bzaks1424> hi all! I haev a netgear (prism gt) card that won't seem to activate. I can find it on `lspci` but I cannot get it to turn on. Does anyone have any suggestions? I've already commented out the "prism54" line in blacklist.conf
[00:24] <Gnea> brokuntu: it's hardly dirty since it's been used since linux was created in the early 90's
[00:25] <Gnea> Linus made, Linus approved :)
[00:25] <h00k> brokuntu: :)
[00:26] <bzaks1424> Anyone else still use a wireless PCI card?
[00:26] <ZykoticK9> saji89, turning Compiz OFF will correct the openoffice slideshow/panel issue
[00:27] <saji89> ZykoticK9, Ya.. i now read that in the Bug report... :)
[00:28] <saji89> ZykoticK9, And i tried it, it works... Thanks anyways.. :)
[00:28] <Green_> when editing grub, how do i save?
[00:28] <brokuntu> what would really help is someone who did QA check the intel IGC really worked with the driver they put on there and didn't just assume it did because it had a similar number
[00:29] <ikonia> boolean: what ?
[00:29] <ikonia> brokuntu: what ?
[00:30] <hufx> Green_: How are you editing grub?
[00:31] <jdeloach> Is it possible to limit the abilities of a user logged in over SSH with just a password as opposed to a RSA or DSA key?
[00:31] <Green_> from the menu, clicked e
[00:31] <saji89> hi... launchpad has a bug about it.. Also it sates the temporary solution.. Its Bug #525807
[00:31] <ikonia> jdeloach: in what way limit ?
[00:31] <saji89> Bye everyone..
[00:31] <brokuntu> ikonia: whats that pastebin it package called
[00:31] <ikonia> brokuntu: pastebininit
[00:32] <jdeloach> ikonia: Say they could only use commands like uptime, cd, ls, etc. Only allowing them to use simple commands.
[00:32] <Green_> hufx: how should i edit it?
[00:32] <hufx> Green_:  just type what you want   it will not be saved but it will work
[00:33] <Green_> hufx: how can i edit and save it, once logged in?
[00:33] <ikonia> jdeloach: the only real way would be to do a chroot, but then only link in the commands you want
[00:33] <hufx> Green_:  open the file in your favorite editor
[00:33] <jdeloach> ikonia: Okay, thanks.
[00:34] <Green_> hufx: it's the first time i use linux in full on command line mode, so can you help me?
[00:34] <cardamon> Oops.
[00:35] <h00k> Green_: you're going to need to 'gksudo gedit /etc/defaults/grub' to open it as root
[00:35] <h00k> Green_: Are you...on a server?
[00:35] <Green_> yes
[00:35] <Green_> and i just sshed in! :D
[00:36] <h00k> Green_: then...nano is pretty easy: sudo nano /etc/defauts/grub
[00:36] <hufx> Green_:  just use nano
[00:36] <brokuntu> what key in lynx displays current url
[00:36] <cardamon> Oops...deleted the top panel.
[00:37] <elb0w> why are my repo downloads going so slow
[00:37] <elb0w> I have a oc3
[00:37] <elb0w> 4kb/s
[00:37] <masterslakk> if i deleted my top bar panel, how do i get it back?
[00:37] <cardamon> I blame my complete lack of attention.
[00:38] <cardamon> masterslakk: Make a new one and fill it...I'm just not sure where some of the bits come from.
[00:38] <masterslakk> cardamon, that's every failure's exuse
[00:38] <Green_> h00k: says it's a new file
[00:38] <brokuntu> root@ubuntu:~# modprobe i915 2>&1 | pastebinit
[00:38] <brokuntu> http://pastebin.com/VcEWGiNq
[00:38] <h00k> Green_: uh. maybe it's /etc/default/grub then, sorry
[00:38] <Green_> thats what i did
[00:39] <ikonia> brokuntu: so that module has no link to any hardware on your system
[00:39] <minimec> masterslakk:
[00:39] <brokuntu> yeah thats right i dont rememeber why i
[00:39] <minimec> masterslakk: http://www.watchingthenet.com/restore-panels-in-ubuntu-back-to-their-default-settings.html
[00:39] <brokuntu> have it in my head something tried to load it but it did
[00:39] <ikonia> Green_: what version of ubuntu
[00:39] <Green_> ikonia: server 10.04
[00:40] <brokuntu> the Xorg "intel" driver does not work with my IGC (intel)
[00:40] <masterslakk> minimec, nice
[00:40]  * brokuntu believes they may be connected
[00:40] <benji12> Hi, What is the RT kernel for?
[00:40] <ikonia> brokuntu: it's not
[00:40] <ikonia> brokuntu: real time - audio processing, that sort of thing
[00:40] <brokuntu> ikonia: aah i see
[00:40] <sgs1990_> does ennyone know how 2 fix this error???   warning: The VAD has been replaced by a hack pending a complete rewrite
[00:41] <conrad_> can someone help troubleshoot my jaunty install? whenever i turn on desktop effects, my task bars disappear!
[00:41] <ikonia> sgs1990_: it's not an error, it's information
[00:41] <sgs1990_> oke but what does it mean than
[00:41] <sgs1990_> i had a K2 anounsment and i fixed that
[00:41] <ikonia> sgs1990_: it means there is a hack in the software you're doing to "fix" something while it waits for a total re-write
[00:41] <brokuntu> is there somewhere early in the ubuntu boot process i can modify to tell it to use vesa and not something clever splash and everything is off of course
[00:42] <roller> Anyone know how to get rid of "authentication required" popup in firefox?  The localhost,server1,server2,serverX solution at about:config does not work
[00:42] <brokuntu> I can actually get X to run if I ChipSet "vesa" on it
[00:42] <ikonia> brokuntu: hard code vesa into an xorg.conf file
[00:42] <sgs1990_> ikonia,, so i have to wait for a new version of the game??
[00:42] <brokuntu> this won't make ubuntu boot without blank screen though i don't think it's going straight into X
[00:42] <brokuntu> ... is IT?
[00:42] <brokuntu> really that fast????
[00:42]  * brokuntu tries
[00:43] <ikonia> sgs1990_: or or them to fix whatever bug it is
[00:43] <maco> brokuntu: the splash is X-based, i believe
[00:43] <sgs1990_> oke thanks ikonia
[00:43] <maco> brokuntu: if you hold shift on boot you can edit the entry in grub and remove the "splash" option
[00:43] <ikonia> are you talking about boot splash ?
[00:44] <maco> ikonia: i am... is that not what brokuntu is asking about?
[00:44] <ikonia> boot splash isn't X based, it's a kernel framebuffer device
[00:44] <maco> ikonia: xsplash lacks x?
[00:44] <ikonia> you can change your xorg settings
[00:44]  * maco confused
[00:44]  * maco wanders off to go do RMB stuff
[00:44] <ikonia> xsplash isnt the boot splash as far as I'm aware
[00:45] <cardamon> Deleted my top panel accidentally, filling it back in...where do I get power logo menu that handles users, sleep/hibernate, reboot, and shutdown?
[00:45] <masterslakk> excuse me, but, in the terminal when commands have arguments that have one '-' and two '--', what does it mean?
[00:45] <masterslakk> Is there any difference to the type of option
[00:45] <roller> anyone know how to get rid of the "Authentication Required" popup in Firefox?
[00:45] <cafuego> I'm having group permission problems with an nfs server; it seems group perms aren't honoured on the client side, so users can't get at a shared directory. Anyone seen this and/or know the solution?
[00:45] <cardamon> It's top-right on 10.4 out of the box.
[00:45] <masterslakk> roller, always trust
[00:46] <ikonia> masterslakk: just different ways of passing syntax, some binaries like one - others two
[00:46] <Monotoko> cardamon, right click the panel -> Add to panel -> Shut Down
[00:46] <masterslakk> ikonia, what does binaries mean?
[00:46] <stenten> cardamon: I think it's called User Switcher.
[00:46] <ikonia> masterslakk: programs
[00:46] <cardamon> Monotoko: That's not it.
[00:46] <masterslakk> ikonia, so these options with one - and two -- for behavior arguments are just there?
[00:47] <roller> masterslakk, always trust what?
[00:47] <cardamon> stenten: That's not it either.
[00:47] <ikonia> masterslakk: yes,
[00:47] <masterslakk> ikonia, what if one argument -l and one was --a
[00:47] <masterslakk> ikonia, would this give the same command --al
[00:47] <masterslakk> ??
[00:48] <ikonia> masterslakk: did you read what I said, "some" binaries like one, "others" two, they are not mix and match
[00:48] <masterslakk> ikonia, so one woul dhave to be --a -l
[00:48] <masterslakk> ic thanks...
[00:48] <ikonia> masterslakk: no, just -l
[00:48] <ikonia> masterslakk: no - just -al
[00:48] <cafuego> Never mind, it seems to honour the primary group only :-(
[00:48] <Ken> ubuntu suspend,sometimes does not work, how is it?
[00:49] <smt> hi all, starting with the lucid update burning of .iso images fails every now and than, anyone faced that too?
[00:49] <cardamon> How about a conf?  Is the panel's configurration stored somewhere?
[00:49] <ikonia> cardamon: gconf
[00:49] <hacim> how do you add irc to empathy?
[00:49] <Ken> ubuntu suspend,sometimes does not work, how is it?
[00:50] <ikonia> Ken: there are lots of bugs on launchpad about that, check them out see if any match your configuration
[00:50] <cardamon> ikonia: that's more a what than a where.
[00:50] <ikonia> cardamon: no it's not, you asked if it was stored anywhere, yes, it's stored in gconf
[00:50] <Blade-Runner> roller : try if it helps : http://support.mozilla.com/tiki-view_forum_thread.php?comments_offset=0&comments_threadId=0&comments_parentId=23658&comments_threshold=0&thread_sort_mode=commentDate_asc&forumId=1&time_control=172800
[00:51] <cardamon> Although...
[00:51] <cardamon> ikonia: thanks...I think I'm onto it.
[00:51] <Ken> How to find wrong?
[00:51] <cardamon> It's called FastUserSwitchApplet
[00:51] <ikonia> Ken: open launchpad.net - search the bug list
[00:52] <Ken> oh....thanks
[00:52] <roller> Blade-Runner, I tried that link and solution but it did not stop the pop-ups
[00:53] <Blade-Runner> roller : Alright let me look for new link
[00:53] <hacim> i dont get how I can add IRC to empathy
[00:53] <Niggardly> hacim: sudo rm -rf /
[00:53] <cardamon> Okay.
[00:54] <jijizaza> moning
[00:54] <cardamon> I've found what I'm looking for by I have no idea what to do with it.
[00:54] <jijizaza> morning
[00:54] <hacim> thank you
[00:54] <cardamon> Found a default_setup entry in gconf for the panels...now I wonder I can copy that over the current.
[00:57] <cardamon> Well then.
[00:58] <Blade-Runner> !hi | jijizaza
[00:59] <exs> can someone explain how to use video thumbnails in thunar?
[01:00] <Vilemaxim> Can you dd using the gvfs-fuse-daemon. I'm trying to dump an iphone
[01:00] <pibb> why is there no way to start gdm after you stop it in 9.10
[01:00] <psusi> pibb, huh?  you start it the exact reverse of how you stop it...
[01:01] <Mrpeepers310> hey, for some reason I am not able to enable my nvidia graphics card. I have installed nvidia-current and enabled it under jockey but everytime I restart it still gives me an error that the "nvidia" driver has not loaded or cannot be found. Anyone have any ideas as to what the problem can be?
[01:01] <Blade-Runner> pibb : sudo service gdm restart
[01:01] <pibb> it brings me to a black screen saying "starting up", i cant enter anything
[01:02] <Blade-Runner> pibb : Have you configured display drivers.
[01:02] <psusi> or just sudo start gdm
[01:02] <Mrpeepers310> anyone had trouble enabling their nvidia drivers?
[01:04] <Blade-Runner> Mrpeepers310 : Have you got issues regarding that (Nvidia drivers)
[01:04] <Purpley> Is there a command I can run in ubuntu to encrypt a certain directory?
[01:04] <brokuntu> no joy
[01:05] <Mrpeepers310> Blade-Runner: yes Ill send you what i just wrote in pm
[01:05] <brokuntu> is there a way to tell ubuntu not to use any graphics at all in its boot sequence i have removed splash and quiet
[01:05] <brokuntu> the problem seems to be something called "drm"
[01:05] <brokuntu> when this gets loaded, my monitor dies
[01:06] <Bishop_> ubuntu server?
[01:07] <brokuntu> so it's a kernel module
[01:07]  * brokuntu deletes it
[01:07] <corey> isnt your section "device" in the xorg.conf file supposed to have the name of your video card in it? all mine says is the identifier driver and vendername im having the x crash problem, anyone help?
[01:07] <Daekdroom> brokuntu, it's a necessary kernel module o.o
[01:07] <Blade-Runner> Mrpeepers310 : sitll there
[01:07] <cardamon>  Trying to fix something I did...deleted the panel.  I see a default entryy in gconf that looks like the old one, but I'm not sure how to roll it back to that one.  Point a guy in the right direction?
[01:08] <Daekdroom> corey, It's unusual for X to have a xorg.conf in the lastest versions. It doesn't need one anymore.
[01:08] <Mrpeepers310> Blade-Runner: ok cool, did you get my private message?
[01:08] <corey> i had created it
[01:08] <Blade-Runner> yep : terminal : urname -r
[01:08] <corey> because im having the freaking x crash issue again
[01:09] <cardamon> Blade-Runner: uname -r
[01:09] <corey> im buying a new card but right now i have nvidia geforce 6150 se nforce 430 and i have the recommended 195 driver in hardware
[01:09] <corey> i cant get around this issue
[01:09] <hacim> just installed lucid, there is no battery applet... how do I find the charge?
[01:10] <corey> does anyone know how to fix this?
[01:10] <jimmyz80> I changed the default zoom level for "Icon View Defaults" in nautilus preferences, and it seems to not apply to certain directories under my home directory, is this supposed to be this way?
[01:11] <brokuntu> Daekdroom: that drm is necessary kernel module is unfortunate
[01:11] <brokuntu> how can i tell this module not to turn off my monitor
[01:11] <hacim> hm where do I see the battery level?
[01:11] <eipi-1> hacim, system -> pref -> power managment -> tab: general
[01:11] <corey> when i look in my xorg log it says the nvidia kernal has failed to initialize
[01:12] <brokuntu> wb Daekdroom
[01:12] <brokuntu> Daekdroom: that drm is necessary kernel module is unfortunate, how can i stop it turning off my monitor
[01:12] <hacim> oh unplug it
[01:12] <Blade-Runner> cardamon : sorry uname -r
[01:13] <hiexpo> busy night
[01:13] <brokuntu> i got about another hour i'm prepared to spend on this then im installing debian or freebsd or something
[01:13] <Daekdroom> brokuntu, I'm not sure. as far as I know it's necessary for having a few graphical features.
[01:13] <brokuntu> i love the ubuntu philosophy but practically this can't continue
[01:14] <neuro_damage> how do I install a package and have it skip the configuration screen options
[01:14] <drmc> I want to migrate from 9.04 to 10.4, how can I transfer programs, configuration and data between them?
[01:15] <hiexpo> drmc, i recomend doing a fresh install
[01:15] <XStatik> I just installed ubuntu server edition and when i rebooted to complete the installation it went into the raw terminal mode and never loaded the gui, how do i bypass that and get the gui to work
[01:15] <captainc> I'm having a problem auto mounting a new luks partition. I have crypttab and fstab entries. I already have my primary hard drive mounting at boot (from the install), but after creating this one manually, it does not open on boot. It auto-mounts when I run the command 'sudo luksOpen /dev/disk/by-uuid/<uuid> mycrypt.
[01:16] <brokuntu> ah sigh]
[01:16] <drmc> hiexpo: so there isn't a safe way to migrate my confs and data?
[01:16] <brokuntu> this is too much to bear
[01:16] <brokuntu> ubuntu you are losing a user who if he ever had his hd back online had about 60 bug reports he intended to file
[01:16] <Daekdroom> drmc, you can do a upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10 then 10.04, but it's likely to break your system.
[01:16] <brokuntu> your QA needs improving
[01:17] <Typos_King> hheehe
[01:17]  * brokuntu had been keeping bug reports in tomboy ready to mass report one weekend
[01:17] <brokuntu> im the kind of user you really WILL miss
[01:17] <drmc> Daekdroom: so the only option is to backup /home and /etc and manually transfer the stuff I need to a clean install?
[01:17] <brokuntu> but i can't take this anymore
[01:18] <Typos_King> brokuntu:    what's your gripe?
[01:18] <captainc> brokuntu: I haven't been here long, but what's your deal?
[01:18] <hiexpo> drmc, not that i am aware of anyways i recommend  backing up your files and doing a fresh install best way i think
[01:18] <dibs> is ubuntu one down?
[01:18] <brokuntu> Typos_King: when i boot ubuntu my monitor turns off
[01:18] <jimmyz80> Unable to complete a graceful exit
[01:18] <Typos_King> he's just venting out I gather, he doesn't have a teddy bear to hug hehe
[01:18] <Daekdroom> drmc, well, backuping /home and keeping track of your programs should be enough. Transfering /etc from one version to another is insane.
[01:19] <brokuntu> Typos_King: X does it too but if i chipset vesa on it, then it stops
[01:19] <brokuntu> on ubuntu boot i cant do this, ubuntu boot loads a module called drm then my monitor dies
[01:19] <Daekdroom> brokuntu, Have you tried booting it with nosplash option?
[01:19] <ascianabhro> Hi all, need some help
[01:19] <Daekdroom> !ask | ascianabhro
[01:20] <Typos_King> brokuntu:    there's a file in /etc.. can't recall where you tell it what modules NOT to load, I think is in the so-called 'blacklist' file
[01:20] <brokuntu> Daekdroom: i removed the splash and quiet options but didn't add a nosplash
[01:20] <ascianabhro> just installed lucid on dell mini 1012, Intel GMA 500
[01:20] <drmc> alrighty then, backing up and installing from scratch. Is there any way I can install a list of programs en-masse somehow?
[01:20] <brokuntu> Typos_King: someone told me this drm is necessary
[01:20] <brokuntu> i was just rm it
[01:20] <ascianabhro> after installing the poulsbo driver, after boot it gives low graphics mode
[01:20] <hiexpo> drmc, most problems originate from migrating from one version to another
[01:20] <Daekdroom> DRM is necessary for graphical features.
[01:20] <Loshki> Daekdroom: actually, I transfer selected config files from /etc every time I upgrade (well, I don't upgrade, I do from-scratch installs) and then copy over the config files. It works quite well...
[01:20] <matmat> can someone help me set up 5.1 sound? im using a realtek alc662 sound device
[01:20] <Typos_King> brokuntu:    well.... you can just have it skipped, don't have to delete it, did you ever get a GUI or it never did?
[01:21] <Daekdroom> Loshki, Selected config files sounds much more specific than just copying your whole /etc
[01:21] <brokuntu> Typos_King: i can boot the live CD, X shows no monitor signal, i kill gdm-binary, then do X -configure and force it to use vesa, then I can use X from the live CD, from my installed system I cannot see anything
[01:21] <Typos_King> brokuntu:    I'm guessing you're referring to 10.04?
[01:21] <drmc> hiexpo: I dont mind a fresh install, the only trouble is transfering all the tweaking I've been doing to various confs all over the system
[01:22] <Daekdroom> When I'm doing a fresh install, I might even clean up my /home/. folders so I can clean up the garbage :P
[01:22] <hiexpo> drmc, but you can do it the other way but when things gosouth do say i didn't tell ya so   :)
[01:22] <brokuntu> Typos_King: yup karmic was great
[01:22] <Typos_King> brokuntu:    then maybe you need karmic :P, heheh, I didn't upgrade, why fix if it ain't broken :P
[01:22] <brokuntu> it was broke i broke the machine karmic was on :)
[01:23] <ascianabhro> any known workaround for the low graphics issue on boot after installing poulsbo on ubuntu 10.04
[01:23] <drmc> hiexpo: I was thinking of doing a version update first to see if it's going to fail and then do a fresh install on top of it anyway
[01:23] <Typos_King> brokuntu:    but you just said it was great :P
[01:23] <soupdragon> When will ubuntu 10.04 support mac pro?
[01:23] <brokuntu> obvious troll misses a link
[01:23] <Loshki> Daekdroom: well, the more stuff you copy over, the higher the chances are that there'll be something incompatible. My actual config is contained in about 15 files from /etc...
[01:23] <hiexpo> drmc, i know it's a lotta time and work but anything worth doing is worth doing right   /// if you don't have time to do it right the first time why do it all
[01:23] <jimmyz80> I'll agree with some of that, i've noticed since moving to 10.4 from karmic, lot of random bugs that are quite troublesome
[01:24] <brokuntu> Daekdroom: you seem to know something about this drm, who should i talk to im willing to put in a little work to make it work
[01:24] <Daekdroom> Loshki, my last reinstall was done after copying ~/Downloads and ~/Music xD
[01:24] <drmc> hiexpo: you're right yeah
[01:24] <brokuntu> not much at this point as I have real work with real jobs and cant read my files with no OS
[01:24] <drmc> hiexpo: but it never hurts looking for shortcuts :p
[01:24] <brokuntu> but i can do basic gdb, etc
[01:24] <Daekdroom> brokuntu, Well.. not much can be done without knowing what is the problem.
[01:25] <brokuntu> im deleting the f*****
[01:25] <Typos_King> geez, many folks just install new versions of whatever, just for the sole reason is newer, I mean, screw that, I use stuff not for version numbers, but for features only, 9.1 fits me well, hell I can even do with 7.1 too
[01:25] <brokuntu> lets see what happens
[01:25] <brokuntu> lol
[01:25] <Daekdroom> brokuntu, but I definitely think you should try booting with nosplash
[01:25] <hiexpo> drmc, only thing in life a short cutwill get ya is cut short :)
[01:25] <Loshki> Daekdroom: well, mine is a server, so there's a bit more config, but even so, 15 files from /etc is extremely manageable...
[01:25] <brokuntu> ok try nosplash
[01:25] <brokuntu> then delete
[01:25] <brokuntu> then install debian/freebsd/windows
[01:25] <brokuntu> and cry cause i liked ubuntu for philosophical reasons
[01:26] <Daekdroom> Philosophy is meant to let you down, always.
[01:26] <Daekdroom> But that's not talk for this channel.
[01:26] <Typos_King> brokuntu:    have about... tried maybe   in the boot acpi=off noapic?    I've had issues before with other hardware with the acpi module and hanging the boot on me
[01:26] <brokuntu> Typos_King: i have all those off
[01:26] <drmc> ok then what should I backup for the slow purpose of migrating, /home for sure, /etc for some of the confs that I will select by hand, anything else?
[01:26] <brokuntu> they don't affect this machine but i did it just because it did others :)
[01:26] <Daekdroom> brokuntu, Which is your videocard?
[01:27] <Typos_King> brokuntu:  have you checked /var/log/Xorg.0.log to find anything on what happens?
[01:27] <Daekdroom> That, or dmesg.
[01:27] <Daekdroom> DRM outputs along with the kernel, I believe.
[01:28] <Typos_King> I'm guessing is not the drm module or whatever that is
[01:28] <brokuntu> Daekdroom: 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82865G Integrated Graphics
[01:28] <brokuntu> Controller (rev 02)
[01:29] <zela> hi
[01:29] <Typos_King> allo zela
[01:29] <DjDark> hmm
[01:29] <Blade-Runner> !hi | zela
[01:30] <brokuntu> when booting with the quiet off, the last line i see is the one where drm appears, i also remember something about it in Xorg.log

[01:31] <ikonia> DjDark: what codec are you trying to install ?
[01:31] <DjDark> trying to install internet dj console on ubuntu hardy
[01:32] <od3n_> can anyone tell me if there is something wrong with this cmd
[01:32] <Loshki> DjDark: add libavcodec-dev and libavformat-dev then retry...
[01:32] <od3n_> sudo ./VboxLinuxAdditions-amd64.run
[01:32] <od3n_> cant seem to get it to work for me
[01:32] <hellupline> I am trying to run my GUI applications via SSH on windows, anyone know how ??
[01:32] <ikonia> DjDark: idjc is in the ubuntu repos
[01:33] <ikonia> DjDark: you don't have to compile it
[01:33] <ikonia> hellupline: you can't - you need an xserver for windows,
[01:33] <ikonia> !info idjc | DjDark
[01:33] <jiho> terrassa
[01:33] <DjDark> "libavcodec-dev is already the newest version." (same for libavformat-dev)
[01:33] <hellupline> ikonia, you mean xming or sometthig like that ??
[01:33] <jiho> j/ rubi
[01:34] <Blade-Runner> od3n_ : Are you trying to install Guest Additions in the V-Box?
[01:34] <ikonia> hellupline: I mean an xserver on your windows machine
[01:34] <DjDark> dont have to compile?
[01:34] <ikonia> DjDark: no, it's in the ubuntu repo
[01:34] <Loshki> DjDark: what ikonia said. Why not just install the binary?
[01:35] <DjDark>  kinda new to linux in general...
[01:35] <ikonia> !software | DjDark
[01:36] <courtni> how do you run a program as an executable bit even if its not?*wine is not working* ( im trying to download flyff.. the url is : http://flyff.gpotato.com/?m=game&a=download  )http://flyff.gpotato.com/?m=game&a=download
[01:36] <ikonia> courtni: you don't run it as executable, if it's not
[01:36] <courtni> then how do i run it?
[01:37] <Blade-Runner> !wine
[01:38] <ikonia> courtni: then it is an executable
[01:38] <Loshki> DjDark: well, I notice that your error message mentions libavcodec/avcodec.h but libavcodec-dev supplies /usr/include/ffmpeg/avcodec.h i.e. the paths don't match. I suspect there's a packaging error i.e. you picked a bad example for a beginner to compile. If I were you, I'd install the binary, and pick something simpler to start with...
[01:38] <hiexpo> install inwine with jdk6
[01:38] <pzn> installing ubuntu 10.4 alternative 32bits. want to use encrypted root. but ubuntu menu only has option of "full-hd" encrypted. I want to leave 10Gb of hd not partitioned... how?
[01:39] <od3n_> yeah I am trying to do that
[01:39] <root___> hey guys, im pretty new to ubuntu..
[01:39] <courtni> ikoia:? no... it's not an "executible bit" and it won't run on wie or archive manger
[01:39] <linso> :)
[01:39] <ikonia> courtni: then change the permissions to mark it as executable
[01:39] <Blade-Runner> od3n_ : let me give you a link how to do that..
[01:39] <linso> I am runnng irssi, how do I switch between command line and irssi??
[01:39] <courtni> where would i do that at?
[01:39] <courtni> (new)
[01:39] <DjDark> ty for the point to the repos. i've been wondering what that was all about lol
[01:39] <digital-diesel> hi...  im having a problem...   i updated rhythmbox to 0.12.8 and the default plugins are not installed and i dont know what to do
[01:40] <ikonia> courtni: with the file manager or th chmod command
[01:40] <hiexpo> courtni, is it an sxs install if so install with jdk6 then you can go to wine and run it simple
[01:40] <ikonia> digital-diesel: how did you update it ?
[01:40] <hiexpo> exe sorry
[01:40] <courtni> ok thnx
[01:40] <Loshki> courtni: http://cdn.pandonetworks.com/pando/FlyffDownloader.exe is a windows executable. You either run it in windows, or under wine, Nothing else will work...
[01:40] <linso> gentlemen, please? :)
[01:40] <ikonia> linso: what ?
[01:40] <greiser> hi
[01:40] <linso> I just want to know how to switch between bash command line and irssi?
[01:41] <bastid_raZor> linso: there is an #irssi channel
[01:41] <crdlb> linso: use screen
[01:41] <ikonia> linso: you need to use a tool like screen, or quit irssi, people don't like things like "/exec" in irc
[01:41] <Loshki> !manual | DjDark This might clear up some things for you...
[01:41] <elb0w> where is -lexpat in ubuntu?
[01:42] <elb0w> this is driving me crazy
[01:42] <linso> what is screen?
[01:42] <ikonia> elb0w: it's expact, -l is linking in a compiler, what are you trying to do
[01:42] <linso> apt-get install screen?
[01:42] <ikonia> !screen | linso
[01:42] <Random832> linso: or open another window, or hit alt-f2 if you're in the console
[01:42] <hiexpo> courtni, you have to use jdk6 to install it it won't just run with wine   //// jdk6 is java
[01:42] <greiser> what's a good IM client?
[01:42] <Random832> also, don't IRC as root
[01:42] <elb0w> ikonia, its expat
[01:42] <digital-diesel> ikona:  in the terminal i typed sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade to update everything
[01:42] <hiexpo> greiser, pidgin
[01:42] <elb0w> ikonia, it is a library
[01:43] <greiser> oh yeah, pidgin
[01:43] <ikonia> elb0w: you're trying to build expat ?
[01:43] <greiser> totally forgot about that one
[01:43] <ikonia> elb0w: what are you trying to build ?
[01:43] <Random832> ikonia: geez talk about overkill
[01:43] <Loshki> elb0w: package libexpat1
[01:43] <elb0w> ikonia, im trying to use it in a make
[01:43] <ikonia> Random832: huh ?
[01:43] <ikonia> elb0w: what are you trying to make
[01:43] <Random832> screen is really your first instinct to recommend when someone wants to use both irc and the shell?
[01:43] <Random832> i mean, i use screen, but it really is a power users tool
[01:44] <MrSmiley909> Hello. How would I reinstall an ubuntu kernel? What is the package name?
[01:44] <digital-diesel> ikonia: in the terminal i typed sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade to update everything
[01:44] <jimmyz80> Failed to run /usr/sbin/wicd as user root.
[01:44] <jimmyz80> The underlying authorization mechanism (sudo) does not allow you to run this program. Contact the system administrator. This is what I get when i tried to use wicd to get my laptop online using fluxbox, anyone know what I need to do?
[01:44] <maco> Random832: irssi, better?
[01:44] <ikonia> Random832: when he wants to switch between irssi and shell - yes
[01:44] <ikonia> MrSmiley909: linux-kernel
[01:44] <maco> ikonia: mmm well...
[01:44] <Random832> ikonia: as opposed to using alt-tab with two terminal windows, or tabs in gnome-terminal, or alt-f2 on the console?
[01:44] <maco> ikonia: ctrl+z to stop the irssi process and then "fg" to resume it...
[01:45] <Random832> lol i remember doing that ctrl-z
[01:45] <ikonia> Random832: he didn't say he wanted two terminals, or I'd have suggested opening another or using tabs, he said he wanted to switch between irssi and shell
[01:45] <psusi> maco, that will get you disconnected from irc for idle timeout
[01:45] <Random832> you've got like a 120 second clock to do whatever you're doing and get back to IRC
[01:45] <maco> psusi: probably depends how long... could probably bg it though to prevent that
[01:45] <Random832> ikonia: you switch between the programs by switching between the tabs they're in :P
[01:45] <maco> psusi: because i know someone who hit ctrl+z and then started irssi again all confused and i told him he could fg it and he was in awe
[01:45] <psusi> maco, can't be it since it will try to write output to the tty and fsck up whatever else you're doing
[01:45] <digital-diesel> ikonia: i think i found it:  sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install rhythmbox rhythmbox-plugins
[01:46] <ikonia> Random832: don't disagree, but that's not what he asked for
[01:46] <greiser> hey I have a quick question....
[01:46] <Random832> ikonia: how is screen any more like what he asked for
[01:46] <Random832> two X windows, two screen windows
[01:46] <Ari_Lazarus> Guys - My Wine menu seems to have disappeared... after installing programs in Wine I no longer see them show up in the start menu. What do?
[01:46] <Typos_King> greiser:   answer is 23
[01:46] <hiexpo> !ask
[01:46] <Random832> same difference as far as i'm concerned
[01:46] <ikonia> Random832: it allows him to switch between irssi and the shell
[01:46] <Random832> so do any of the other solutions
[01:46] <psusi> there is a reason screen was invented...
[01:46] <ikonia> Random832: no, they start a new shell
[01:46] <Random832> you've got a _bizarrely_ specific definition of the term "switch between"
[01:46] <greiser> i use multiple monitors...  why can't I treat my second monitor as an extension of my first and drag windows between the two?  Why is my second monitor a completely separate desktop environment
[01:47] <Random832> right, and then he switches between that shell and irssi
[01:47] <Loshki> Typos_King: support first, comedy second, if you don't mind...
[01:47] <ikonia> Random832: no, I just took what he said to mean he wanted to do it within irssi
[01:47] <Random832> he said within irssi? where?
[01:47] <Random832> 20:39 < linso> I am runnng irssi, how do I switch between command line and irssi??
[01:47] <Random832> 20:40 < linso> I just want to know how to switch between bash command line and irssi?
[01:47] <crdlb> Random832: I think you've made your point
[01:47] <ikonia> Random832: enough, I said I didn't disagree with your solution
[01:48] <greiser> no one uses multiple monitors?
[01:48] <greiser> why can't ubuntu treat my desktop as one big desktop instead of two separate views?
[01:49] <ikonia> greiser: what video card do you have
[01:49] <greiser> gtx 275
[01:49] <ikonia> !twinview | greiser
[01:49] <digital-diesel> bye everybody!  thanks
[01:49] <Loshki> !xinerama | greiser
[01:49] <greiser> i turned off twinview
[01:49] <Random832> !xrandr | greiser
[01:49] <ikonia> greiser: that's why then
[01:50] <visof> hello
[01:50] <Loshki> so of xinerama, twinview and xrandr, which one is first choice?
[01:50] <greiser> wait
[01:50] <Random832> whichever one works
[01:50] <greiser> nvidia x server settings has "Enable Xinerama"
[01:50] <ikonia> Loshki: not xierama as it doesn't support acceleration on nvidia's
[01:50] <greiser> haha
[01:50] <crdlb> Loshki: XRandR for non-nvidia, TwinView for nvidia
[01:50] <greiser> unchecked
[01:50] <visof> my boot manager is lost , how can i recover it, i'm using ubuntu 10.04
[01:50] <greiser> lemme check it and get back to you
[01:51] <Firefishe> Anyone here working with kde 4.5 beta 1 on kubuntu?  I'm looking for a howto on how to build it.
[01:51] <Loshki> thanks guys
[01:51] <visof> please anyone help me ?
[01:51] <greiser> brb
[01:52] <Loshki> !grub2 | visof See if there's something here
[01:52] <undecim> Anyone know if there's any way to get applications to stop using software mixing? Or is it just that my laptop has a crappy sound card?
[01:52] <aknagi> Does anyone here work for a software house?

[01:54] <aknagi> Well - I just got a software job, and I'm not sure how it all works!
[01:54] <greiser> ikonia....  Xinerama did the trick
[01:54] <greiser> thanks
[01:54]  * greiser gives ikonia a big chocolate cookie
[01:54] <Loshki> aknagi: try asking on #ubuntu-offtopic....

[01:55] <glight> Hello everyone
[01:55] <glight> Anyone willing to give me a hand with recovering my LVM from a broken HDD?
[01:55] <geekphreak> howdy all
[01:56] <acerimmer_> !hi|geephreak
[01:56] <abby> n8-2
[01:56] <geekphreak> acerimmer_: thanks but i am not new here :)
[01:59] <acerimmer_> !
[02:03] <Blade-Runner> hi
[02:03] <acerimmer_> Blade-Runner: greetings
[02:04] <geekphreak> acerimmer_: welcome back :)
[02:04] <Blade-Runner> acerimmer_ : where all of a sudden everybody just vanished without even saying good bye..
[02:04] <acerimmer_> geekphreak: ty.  for some reason my channel feed seemed to freeze
[02:05] <acerimmer_> Blade-Runner: so did we get another exploit crash?
[02:05] <Onikukki> Hello?
[02:05] <acerimmer_> Onikukki: greetings
[02:05] <Gear0> I am having a lot of trouble changing to my native resolution of 1400x1050. The highest available is 1024x768. It is a HP Compaq nc6320 laptop. The trouble is that all solutions I have found use xorg.conf or "915resolution" neither of which seem to be used in Ubuntu 10.04 anymore. and 915resolution says it will break other packages I have if I were to install it, which is why it has been removed from the repositories. Does anyone have other idea
[02:05] <Onikukki> Hi. I'm having trouble installing the lastest version of Ubuntu in a Oracle VirtualBox. Does anyone have time to help? ^^
[02:06] <acerimmer_> Onikukki: i'll try
[02:06] <geekphreak> Onikukki: whats the issue?
[02:06] <Onikukki> Alright, well, I've done this on my other PC, so I know I'm missing something.
[02:06] <Onikukki> It loads the .iso of Ubuntu, but it's a just a purple screen with two small images at the bottom.
[02:07] <Onikukki> No matter what I press, restart or wait, nothing happens. It's the typical purple Ubuntu screen with a small box and a circle at the bottom. >.>
[02:07] <Blade-Runner> Gear0 : 1024 x 768 is also a good.. some will not even get that..
[02:07] <acerimmer_> Onikukki: default wallpaper is purple.  assuming you're attempting the desktop iso?
[02:07] <Onikukki> Yes.
[02:08] <fox> hi, does anyone know how to join irc.gnome.org ?
[02:08] <geekphreak> Onikukki: nothing happens after that?
[02:08] <Onikukki> No, nothing happens.
[02:08] <brokuntu> thats it, i lose
[02:08] <Firefishe> fox: Generally speaking, open your favorite irc client, and type:  /server irc.gnome.org
[02:08] <Gear0> Blade-Runner: it is good. But is there nothing I can do to increase it?
[02:09] <ikonia> fox: it depends on your client, try joining your clients support channel to ask, this is ubuntu support
[02:09] <glight> I run a home fileserver with 3 HDD's and have been using LVM to view them as 1 volume. I had one of the HDD's die and now I am trying to recover what is left from the other 2. I have a spare drive that I have given the correct UUID to so that pvdisplay doesn't complain. However I cannot get the filesystem to mount.
[02:09] <geekphreak> Onikukki: did you run a md5sum on that iso?
[02:09] <acerimmer_> Onikukki: make sure you allocate sufficient Base Memory, Storage and Display.  Enable 3d acceleration...
[02:09] <brokuntu> anyone else with a last destroy the world attack method to try and make a bootable ubuntu system
[02:09] <geekphreak> ikonia: howdy
[02:09] <ikonia> geekphreak: whoaaa
[02:09] <Gear0> Blade-Runner: I mainly ask to find out what 10.04 uses instead of xorg.conf as it does not exist in a fresh install..
[02:09] <brokuntu> or im changing distro and ubuntu was a choice of love
[02:09] <Blade-Runner> Gear0 : My guess that kind of resolution LCD ?
[02:09] <Onikukki> The base memory and storage I know is fine, 3d accel should be on, and I don't really know how to change the Display settings. How do I do that?
[02:09] <geekphreak> ikonia: ??
[02:09] <Gear0> Blade-Runner: it is LCD
[02:10] <ikonia> glight: you can't just swap disks out on lvm like that
[02:10] <ikonia> glight: did you setup any raid levels either at the volume group level or the pv level
[02:10] <ikonia> glight: hello
[02:10] <ikonia> oops
[02:10] <FloodBot4> ikonia: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[02:10] <ikonia> geekphreak: hello
[02:10] <magn3ts> My MBP's USB iSight is no longer working after upgrading to 10.04 in Cheese.
[02:10] <geekphreak> lol ikonia stop flooding ;)
[02:10] <acerimmer_> Onikukki: VBox>Settings>Display
[02:10] <Blade-Runner> Gear0 : Try with the monitor driver..
[02:10] <magn3ts> !webcam
[02:10] <geekphreak> Onikukki: did you run an md6sum?
[02:11] <glight> ikonia: hi
[02:11] <jdog> do get ubuntu-tweak_0.5.4.1-1 to wor on 8.9
[02:11] <geekphreak> ikonia: good too see ya buddy
[02:11] <hiexpo> md5sum
[02:11] <joesuffceren> is there a specific IRC channel for rescue remix and/or data recovery questions, or should I ask in here?
[02:11] <glight> ikonia: I haven't set up anything to do with RAID
[02:11] <Onikukki> geekphreak: yes I did run md5
[02:11] <ikonia> glight: then your data is gone
[02:12] <Onikukki> acerimmer: I don't have a settings option in my virtual box.
[02:12] <geekphreak> Onikukki: wana try something for me?
[02:12] <Onikukki> sure
[02:12] <wgwinn> what's the reason that Ubuntu esktop edition 64-bit is flagged not recommended ? lack of reliable packages or actual instability?
[02:12] <ikonia> glight: using lvm like that will just either use right->left writing, in which case data gone, or stripe across all pv's, in which case, data gone
[02:12] <glight> ikonia: I don't mind losing the data on the drive that died, are you telling me I have lost everything?
[02:12] <magn3ts> how do I see if something is trying to access a certain file?
[02:12] <ikonia> glight: yes
[02:12] <ikonia> glight: if you've got spread across all pv's - it's gone
[02:12] <gvsa123> hello there! i'm on the latest version and having issues with my canon rebel dslr. i am able to import the images but my cousin saved his shots in a folder in my card. i cannot view these. just wanted to copy paste them in ubuntu. i was able to mount the camera and view in file browser, but the folder is not showing up.
[02:12] <geekphreak> Onikukki: as soon as the iso starts to boot and you see purple dot, tap shift key number of times, do you see any more options?
[02:12] <Onikukki> geekphreak: Sure, ill try whatever
[02:12] <jdog> ubuntu-tweak_0.5.4.1-1 2 work on 8.9
[02:12] <glight> ikonia: how do I check the way lvm wrote across the drives?
[02:13] <Gear0> Blade-Runner: also the command "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" doesn't work anymore in ubuntu 10.04
[02:13] <Onikukki> geekphreak: yes, mostly language options
[02:13] <ikonia> glight: do an lvdisplay -v on the volume see if you can get the info's
[02:13] <joesuffceren> I recovered an HFS partition using rescue remix (ddrescue) into an image file. I have mounted the image file and am attempting to give the data back to my friend on a USB hdd formatted with FAT32. Rescue Remix can read the 500GB fat32 partition, but it's only wanting to write 128GB of data to it. Any way to get it to write past the 128GB barrier?
[02:13] <bobbytek2> what version of xorg is 10.04 using?
[02:13] <ikonia> glight: very likley data is gone though as the file system has been damaged (by the death of one disk )
[02:13] <geekphreak> Onikukki: it also give mode option, does it?
[02:13] <Blade-Runner> Gear0 : uname -r
[02:13] <Onikukki> geekphreak: yes, "modes"
[02:14] <ikonia> glight: lvm at default level is just concatination
[02:14] <Gear0> Blade-Runner: 2.6.32-22-generic
[02:14] <bobbytek2> I'm getting a "(EE) module ABI major version (1) doesn't match the server's version (2)" after upgrading to 10.04
[02:14] <glight> ikonia: lvdisplay prints the details on my lv
[02:14] <glight> ikonia: do you want any of the specifics?
[02:14] <Blade-Runner> sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-2.6.32-22-generic
[02:14] <psusi> JoeSomebody, fat32 does not support single files larger than that size, are you trying to write a single file that big, or do you mean you can't put more than 128gb of total data on it?
[02:15] <Blade-Runner> Gear0 :  sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-2.6.32-22-generic
[02:15] <ikonia> glight: nah, doesn't say, just checked
[02:15] <magikid> joesuffceren, I think that's a limitation of the fat32 file system
[02:15] <Onikukki> geekphreak: it appears to have frozen, should i restart and try the modes option?
[02:15] <geekphreak> Onikukki: did yo get a normal iso or alternate iso, if you did you could try installing a command line system using different mode
[02:15] <joesuffceren> psusi: largest file is 2GB. total data volume is 300gb
[02:15] <psusi> actually I think fat32 was limied to 2gb
[02:15] <Gear0> Blade-Runner: couldn't find package
[02:16] <geekphreak> Onikukki: go for it
[02:16] <psusi> heh
[02:16] <jdog> ubuntu-tweak_0.5.4.1-1 work on 8.9
[02:16] <visof> hello, i booted from live cd to recover my grub and i can't know what should i do , have read some in the tutorial and my english doesn't help me much
[02:16] <ikonia> jdog: there is no such distro as 8.9
[02:16] <hayduke> how do i get a mmsh plug in for firefox on ubuntu 10.4
[02:16] <acerimmer_> hey all: how do I add screenshot to pastebin
[02:16] <joesuffceren> originally 2GB and 128GB were both limitations of FAT32, but OS's have been able to read and write passed that barrier
[02:16] <visof> please anyone can help me to recover grub2
[02:16] <joesuffceren> past*
[02:16] <ikonia> !grub2 | visof
[02:16] <Onikukki> geekphreak: a normal iso. its a desktop iso but this is a laptop computer. is that my mistake? it would be emaressing if it was..
[02:16] <Blade-Runner> Gear0 :  Edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and look for line that says something like
[02:16] <magikid> volume size for fat32 is 2 TiB
[02:16] <geekphreak> Onikukki: 32 bit?
[02:16] <magikid> *max
[02:16] <jdog> ubuntu-tweak_0.5.4.1-1 9.10
[02:17] <ikonia> magikid: no it,s way smaller
[02:17] <Onikukki> geekphreak: yes. 32bit xp laptop
[02:17] <geekphreak> its 4gb on fat32
[02:17] <ikonia> geekphreak: that's more like it
[02:17] <Blade-Runner> Gear0 : Drivers "nvidia"
[02:17] <joesuffceren> geekphreak: I just wrote 128GB to a fat32 partition, so it's at least that :-)
[02:17] <Gear0> Blade-Runner: but that's what I was saying, there is no xorg.conf in ubuntu 10.04 any more
[02:17] <jdog> ubuntu-tweak_0.5.4.1-1 it work on 9.8
[02:17] <psusi> yea, it's either 2 or 4 depending on whether the 32 bit size field in the directories is treated as signed or not... I can never remember which it is
[02:17] <geekphreak> Onikukki: should work, try with differnt mode
[02:18] <Gear0> Blade-Runner: I found solutions online for my laptop module but they use xorg.conf and dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg which doesn't work anymore either
[02:18] <jdog> ok
[02:18] <jdog> ty
[02:18] <Onikukki> geekphreak: which mode?
[02:18] <magikid> ikonia, only in windows are there restrictions for smaller partitions
[02:18] <geekphreak> Onikukki: try no acpi
[02:18] <Blade-Runner> Gear0 : can you link..
[02:18] <psusi> it gets especially confusing since fat16 technically could have a total fs size of 128 mb but microsoft did not allow more than 2g on win9x iirc, and 4g on NT
[02:19] <joesuffceren> magikid: any suggestions for getting rescue remix to write past 128GB?
[02:19] <psusi> err, 8gb rather, not 128mb ;)
[02:19] <__taco> I can't login system via X any more. I did nothing about it. the login dialog disappear.
[02:19] <Onikukki> geekphreak: I launched the installer in noacip, it froze
[02:19] <ikonia> magikid: nice tip, thank you
[02:19] <glight> ikonia: so is there a way I can attempt to mount the remaining data?
[02:19] <hayduke> not much support here
[02:19] <magikid> joesuffceren, all I can think of is maybe partitioning the disk up into smaller-than-128gb partitions and splitting up your files amongst them
[02:20] <ikonia> glight: I don't see how with a 3rd of your file system missing
[02:20] <velociostrich> __taco: when you say logging in via X, do you mean via GDM or what?
[02:20] <ikonia> hayduke: plenty of support
[02:20] <geekphreak> Onikukki: press right ctrl+r
[02:20] <Gear0> Blade-Runner: I'll try and find them again, here's one:  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=330778
[02:20] <joesuffceren> magikid: I'll give that a try. thanks
[02:20] <geekphreak> Onikukki: should reset the machince, try different one, or you can try to redownload the ison too
[02:20] <brokuntu> hint for ubuntu QA i am going to get banned very soon :) DO NOT RELEASE DISTRO WHERE YOU BOOT UP AND USER MONITOR TURNS OFF
[02:20] <__taco> velociostrich,  it doesn't appear login dialog.
[02:20] <hayduke> mms plug in for viewing streaming media on firefox: need one
[02:21] <alcorn> what would be a good channel to ask about 3gp encoding software in?
[02:21] <magikid> exit
[02:21] <bobbytek2> anyone have any idea what this xorg log means: http://pastebin.com/gpwcf6vS
[02:21] <geekphreak> alcorn: try mediacoder
[02:21] <unexpectedapocal> hey i have a problem
[02:21] <velociostrich> __taco: I would assume that you mean GDM...? At any rate, you could try restarting GDM at the virtual terminal
[02:21] <bobbytek2> not sure which dependencies are not available (root cause)
[02:21] <unexpectedapocal> i accidentally removed my network manager from the top bar
[02:21] <velociostrich> i.e., Ctrl+Alt+F1 or w/e
[02:22] <unexpectedapocal> How do I get it back?
[02:22] <bobbytek2> this happened after upgrading to 10.04 from 9.10
[02:22] <velociostrich> then run sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[02:22] <Loshki> hayduke: perhaps http://linux.derkeiler.com/Newsgroups/comp.os.linux.misc/2005-08/0007.html. Or ask on #firefox...
[02:22] <velociostrich> I don't know what else you could do
[02:22] <hayduke> thanks
[02:22] <Blade-Runner> Gear0 : This is what is most annoying..they remove it. ( i will try to find alternate means to do that)
[02:22] <__taco> velociostrich, I mean the system startup , it should appear login dialog
[02:22] <visof> i have read the tutorial and try to do what it say and i got: can not find a device for /boot/grub
[02:22] <Gear0> Blade-Runner: thanks
[02:23] <visof> i'm on the live cd
[02:23] <__taco> velociostrich, but it doesn't
[02:23] <velociostrich> __taco: I really don't know enough about the init scripts to help you there
[02:23] <visof> and work from /media/my_ubuntu/
[02:23] <velociostrich> __taco: perhaps some kind of error message got logged?
[02:23] <unexpectedapocal> How do I re-add the network manager to my top bar?
[02:23] <__taco> velociostrich, what is GDM?
[02:23] <mariano> hey everyone!!! i have a question... i recently installed ubuntu 10.04. and for some reasons, everytime i start my computer i have to mount the other partitions
[02:23] <alcorn> geekphreak, thanks!
[02:23] <visof> please anyone help
[02:23] <velociostrich> __taco: GDM = Gnome Display Manager, I think; it's the graphical login manager
[02:23] <__taco> velociostrich, no error message.
[02:24] <geekphreak> mariano: add it fstab?
[02:24] <__taco> yeah, I use Gnome
[02:24] <arand> visof: So you are at the stage of "grub-install --root-directory=/media/my_ubuntu/ /dev/sdX#" I take it?
[02:24] <__taco> velociostrich, yeah.
[02:24] <mariano> why???? in past distributions i didnt have 2 do dat... y now?
[02:24] <unexpectedapocal> Can someone help me please?
[02:24] <Onikukki> geekphreak: no luck on the modes. you suggested i should redl the iso, should i get the desktop of netbook?
[02:24] <KNY> hey guys, I have an HDD set to mount via: /dev/sdf1 /media/storage ext3 defaults,auto 0 0 <-- but /dev/sdf1 changes randomly. Sometimes it's /dev/sdc1 or /dev/sdh1 -- what can I do to fix this?
[02:24] <mariano> wat fstab?
[02:24] <glight> ikonia: ok thanks for the assistance

[02:25] <arand> !fstab | mariano
[02:25] <Loshki> hayduke: and next time, please don't complain about lack of support before we've even had a chance to ignore you...

[02:26] <unexpectedapocal> Hi, can someone please tell me how to restore the network manager indicator applet to the top bar?
[02:26] <__taco> velociostrich,ok thx
[02:26] <arand> visof: Did you manage to mount it properly?
[02:26] <velociostrich> __taco: no problem
[02:26] <Onikukki> geekphreak: alright, thanks, ill wait :)
[02:26] <velociostrich> unexpectedapocal: just right click on it and click add to panel
[02:26] <visof> arand i didn't mount it, i just go to /media
[02:26] <arand> visof: That shoul likely be sda5 instead, by the way.
[02:26] <unexpectedapocal> It's not in there.
[02:26] <mariano> wat does dat do? does it mount the partitions automatically so dat i would never have 2 mount them as i turn on d machine??
[02:26] <mariano> im sorry... im really new 2 linux
[02:26] <velociostrich> unexpectedapocal: oh nvm
[02:27] <geekphreak> __taco: do you get any error messgae?
[02:27] <relynt> Hey, I have installed Ubuntu on an old laptop, but performance is horrible. Everything runs incredibly slow and cannot do much at all. I'm not really sure what to troubleshoot. Any suggestions?
[02:27] <velociostrich> unexpectedapocal: you'll have to manually re-start the network manager applet
[02:27] <visof> arand i tried that too
[02:27] <velociostrich> unexpectedapocal: try running nm-applet
[02:27] <visof> arand how can i mount linux partition ?
[02:27] <__taco> geekphreak, in X got none message.
[02:27] <Loshki> relynt: how old a laptop. And which os version did you install?
[02:27] <unexpectedapocal> velociostrich: didn't work either
[02:27] <velociostrich> relynt: what're the specs like? it's possible that your system just simply can't handle a full-blown installation
[02:28] <arand> visof: Ok, do you see it and the fliles on it when you go to /media/something/ ?
[02:28] <velociostrich> unexpectedapocal: is it possible that you don't have the notification thingie on your panel?
[02:28] <arand> visof: If you do see it there, it is "mounted"
[02:28] <__taco> geekphreak, what I should change if I don't what the X start automatically?
[02:28] <visof> arand i see it with folder like that werererije lrjiuwe2938278946jih23iuy786
[02:28] <relynt> Lohski and Velo: Its an old Gateway from around 2000. 2.8GHz pentium 4, 512MB RAM
[02:29] <velociostrich> relynt: that _should_ be fine
[02:29] <relynt> and I installed 10.04 with Wubi
[02:29] <velociostrich> relynt: I've ran it on much older and slower systems
[02:29] <velociostrich> relynt: you could try disabling un-needed services
[02:29] <unexpectedapocal> it isn't on my panel
[02:29] <geekphreak> __taco: do this press ctrl+alt+f2 , login via that, then edit the custom.conf change autologin to false
[02:29] <visof> arand something arand so what should i do now, please help
[02:29] <arand> visof: And in that folder a boot/ folder exist?
[02:29] <Bishop_> is there a kubuntu 1004?
[02:29] <SuperMiguel> whats a good and light imap email client?
[02:30] <Blade-Runner> Gear0 : take a look ..http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1485110

[02:30] <DjDark> usb mic is installed but cant get it to work. and ideas?
[02:30] <relynt> velo: alright. Ill mess around for a bit. I do recall I needed to disable ACPI and APIC during installation. I'll try that for the regular boot as well
[02:30] <visof> arand all the system exits at eirueriuerksdfjk2323897klj/
[02:30] <DjDark> any*
[02:30] <linux_is_my_hero> my internal mic doesnt work all that great with skype. any ideas?
[02:30] <velociostrich> unexpectedapocal: if you try to add the notification area back, you might have to try running nm-applet again
[02:30] <visof> arand, and boot/ there too
[02:30] <__taco> geekphreak, where is the custom.conf locate ?
[02:30] <velociostrich> unexpectedapocal: you could also try running like stalonetray or something and then running nm-applet to see if it pops up there
[02:31] <velociostrich> unexpectedapocal: but you'd have to install that first
[02:31] <unexpectedapocal> Ah
[02:31] <visof> arand,  i should add something there /
[02:31] <unexpectedapocal> veiociostrich: re-adding the notification area did it
[02:31] <velociostrich> unexpectedapocal: you're welcome :)
[02:31] <unexpectedapocal> veiociostrich: For some reason I thought the network manager wasn't part of that.
[02:31] <unexpectedapocal> veiociostrich: so thx. :D
[02:31] <velociostrich> unexpectedapocal: no problem
[02:32] <arand> visof: In that case you need to use the grub command accordingly: "grub-install --root-directory=/media/eirueriuerksdfjk2323897klj/ /dev/sda"  (Provided you want to install it to the mbr of the first drive (sda, this is the normal case)

[02:32] <Purpley> Hey why doesnt ubuntu recognize I have cd's in my cd roms
[02:32] <__taco> geekphreak, ok I try, thx
[02:32] <Onikukki> Purpley: do you have cd guest devices installed?
[02:33] <Chakan95> My monitor has a 1440x900 resolution but it will only let me do 1300x700 something.  Why is that?  How can I fix?
[02:33] <Gear0> Blade-Runner: I have intel integrated graphics chip, not Nvidia, but I'll try creating a xorg.conf manually anyway and then I'll add the "ModeValidation" line that that link suggests and see if that words
[02:33] <Gear0> works*
[02:33] <mickster04> Hullo, I have an account called guest that has it's home directory in /tmp/ and i have a script that clears that every log out. how do I set up how the desktop is made before hand. any user changes get reset when the log out is performed... things like the resolution being wrong etc
[02:33] <Onikukki> Chakan95: Can your graphics card run 1440x900?
[02:33] <geekphreak> Onikukki: try the netbook version
[02:33] <geekphreak> http://www.ubuntu.com/netbook/get-ubuntu/download
[02:33] <arand> visof: Use tab completion: /media/air[press TAB]... to easier make sure it's correct.
[02:33] <Onikukki> geekphreak: I will. I will let you know if it works
[02:33] <Chakan95> Yes.  It has before.  Before I installed Ubuntu that is what I always had
[02:33] <Loshki> relynt: there are also lighter distros e.g crunchbang, 8.04, dsl, puppy. Lots of choices...
[02:34] <Chakan95> I installed the recommended nVidia driver...
[02:34] <arand> visof: Oops that should've bee /media/eir[press tab]
[02:34] <visof> arand, i'll try
[02:35] <Purpley> Onikukki, It worked a few minutes ago, I was ripping a cd and now it doesnt recognize the cd's

[02:36] <__taco> geekphreak, no I can't find that file there.

[02:36] <Gear0> Blade-Runner: brb, restarting gdm
[02:37] <mdmkolbe> Is mounting ntfs the same as ntfs-3g?  If not, what are the pros/cons of each?
[02:37] <SuperMiguel> whats a good command line program to connect to a bluetooth mouse?
[02:37] <ikonia> mdmkolbe: one is read only, one is read/write using user space file systems
[02:37] <Blade-Runner> Chakan95 : wait some else is trying that stuff..(you can read it above)
[02:37] <edbian> mdmkolbe, ntfs is newer I believe
[02:38] <mdmkolbe> ikonia: strange, I've got an ntfs mounted system that looks read/write
[02:38] <ikonia> mdmkolbe: ntfs is read only unless you use fuse
[02:38] <ikonia> !ntfs
[02:38] <JeffLinux> I have flash working, but for some reason I have no sound on youtube or any flash video, any suggestions?
[02:38] <Chakan95> I can't scroll back
[02:38] <Loshki> mdmkolbe: I think ntfs-3g is newer, and basically supercedes ntfs..
[02:38] <Blade-Runner> Gear0 : did it work
[02:38] <Chakan95> People talking too often
[02:38] <con-man> guys I need help why is this greyed out: http://i47.tinypic.com/ejgbhk.png
[02:39] <geekphreak> Chakan95: press shit+ page up ?
[02:39] <edbian> con-man, How many cores does your system have?
[02:39] <ikonia> Loshki: nah, ntfs is the kernel read only module, ntfs-3g is the fuse method, it's a different technology
[02:39] <__taco> geekphreak, it said new file
[02:39] <Chakan95> That doesn't work in empathy either
[02:39] <geekphreak> __taco: are you usin gdm or kdm?
[02:39] <mdmkolbe> ikonia: Some of you info must be out of date, b/c I'm able to write to my ntfs mouned partition.
[02:39] <Loshki> ikonia: no reason to use the older ntfs though, is there?
[02:40] <JeffLinux> Anyone know how to fix no sound in Flash?
[02:40] <__taco> I think auto login != auto start X
[02:40] <ikonia> Loshki: I use it a bit actually, for quick checks where no right is used, but that's only for personal info
[02:40] <bobbytek2> how easy is it to downgrade from 10.04 to 9.10?
[02:40] <visof> arand,  i don't know how can i thank you about that, i'm very grateful too you , thank you very much
[02:40] <__taco> geekphreak, I think auto login != auto start X
[02:40] <ikonia> mdmkolbe: post the output of "mount" in a pastebin please, lets see

[02:40] <geekphreak> __taco: dude do u have gdm or kdm?
[02:40] <geekphreak> __taco: using kde? or gnome
[02:40] <geekphreak> ok
[02:40] <happyface_0> I want to connect to a ssh server and have the private key, how do I use the key to connect?
[02:40] <__taco> geekphreak, gnome
[02:41] <__taco> geekphreak, I am sure that
[02:41] <arand> visof: Glad to help :) So it worked out alright?
[02:41] <psusi> bobbytek2, not possible, reinstall

[02:42] <peter_curry> Hello.  I need help with scanning my entire file system with Avast! Antivirus using terminal.  I know you don't really need an anti-virus for Linux, but I am still choosing to run one in order to be a responsible user with regard to preventing anything from my system possible affecting Windows users.  Can anyone tell me what commands I need to enter in terminal?
[02:42] <ikonia> mondragon: and they are using "fuseblk" which is fuse (ntfs-3g)
[02:42] <bobbytek2> that and I hate matrox
[02:42] <ikonia> oops
[02:42] <Loshki> happyface_0: the client's public key (the one belonging to the private key you have) needs to be installed on the server. If you're lucky, the ssh-copy-id application will do that for you, after which you can login without needing a password...
[02:43] <ikonia> mdmkolbe: and they are using "fuseblk" which is fuse (ntfs-3g)
[02:43] <visof> arand, do you know a good program to delete , format partitions from ubuntu ?
[02:43] <JeffLinux> bobbytek2, matrox? mine is mainly flash has no sound at all
[02:43] <psusi> peter_curry, unless you are storing windows programs on your system and plan on sending them to windows users, there is no way you can infect a windows user
[02:43] <mdmkolbe> ikonia: ok, that seems strange given that fstab lists them as ntfs not ntfs-3g
[02:43] <happyface_0> Loshki: the public key is in the server, how do I connect to the server using the privat key?
[02:43] <arand> visof: gparted is the most commonly used
[02:43] <bobbytek2> JeffLinux: video card, what else is new :/
[02:43] <Gear0> Blade-Runner: back, I tried 5 different things in my xorg.conf they didn't work
[02:43] <JeffLinux> bobbytek2, lol
[02:44] <ikonia> mdmkolbe: looks like they are getting automounted by gnome rather than fstab
[02:44] <geekphreak> where did you extract avast too?
[02:44] <JeffLinux> bobbytek2, well I am tempted to go back to 8.10 just for the fun of it
[02:44] <arand> visof: It's included in the liveCD (system menu>administration>)
[02:44] <DjDark> anyone using skype with Hardy? i try to install and get "error: dependency is not satisfiable: libasound2" :(
[02:44] <peter_curry> psusi: I understand.  I still would like to run Avast! on my system.  It's just my personal preference.  What commands do I need to entire in terminal to run a scan on my entire file system?
[02:44] <psusi> happosade, just ssh to the server and it will use it automatically
[02:44] <__taco1> geekphreak,
[02:44] <psusi> peter_curry, no idea
[02:44] <Loshki> happyface_0: if the public key is installed correctly on the server, it should 'just work'. How did you get the private key?
[02:44] <arand> visof: Or can be installed easily in the ubuntu-installed-on-disk
[02:44] <peter_curry> OK - does anyone else know?

[02:45] <geekphreak> __taco1: next time use pastebin
[02:45] <arand> visof: just search for gparted in software centre and it should show up as "gnome partition editor"
[02:45] <__taco1> ok.
[02:45] <__taco1>  geekphreak, ok
[02:45] <peter_curry> geekphreak: ???
[02:45] <geekphreak> peter_curry: your avast folder has bin folder in it ok, use avast to run scan from command or use avastgui to run it via gui mode ok
[02:46] <Blade-Runner> Gear0 : Keep the question in the session, its gone high up in clouds ; some one solved will reply.
[02:46] <happyface_0> Loshki: the server is fine, I put the private key in ~/.ssh and when I connect to the server it asks for the password for the WRONG PRIVATE KEY
[02:46] <melody> any one play Runescape?
[02:46] <ikonia> mkquist_: I'm guessing (looking at your mount output) is that gnome is fighting and winning against that and mounting them with ntfs-3g
[02:46] <geekphreak> __taco1: and it auto logs in?
[02:46] <ikonia> happyface_0: ssh -i keyname
[02:46] <visof> arand,  thanks again all work here
[02:46] <__taco1>  geekphreak, no, I don't set it auto login
[02:46] <visof> arand,  are you programmer  ?
[02:47] <happyface_0> ikonia: that's all I needed, thanks
[02:47] <Gear0> Blade-Runner: what do you mean "keep the question in the session"
[02:47] <grant_> hello
[02:47] <geekphreak> __taco1: lol then why ask for it
[02:47] <grant_> hey i'm seeing im theres a way i can install windows programs on ubuntu
[02:47] <geekphreak> __taco1: did you try creating a new user?
[02:48] <__taco1> geekphreak, I want change it don't auto start X
[02:48] <grant_> no
[02:48] <visof> i have another question , if my current linux partition 20Gb and i want to make bigger with formating or anything, is there away to do that ?
[02:48] <geekphreak> grant_: wine?
[02:48] <Blade-Runner> Gear0 : As i was unable to help | or practically did not make any difference so keep up the question.
[02:48] <geekphreak> __taco1: no run level in ubuntu :)
[02:48] <grant_> yeah but even with wine on the new lucid it doesn't work
[02:48] <peter_curry> geekphreak: OK.  When I try either command ("avast" or "avastgui"), I get the following error: "Can not initialize avast! engine: Invalid argument".  How do I fix this or get around it?
[02:48] <Gear0> Blade-Runner: alright, I do appreciate your help though.
[02:49] <__taco1> geekphreak, it must run X when startup?
[02:49] <geekphreak> __taco1: you can always stop  gdm
[02:49] <gogeta> visof: you can resize it
[02:49] <__taco1> geekphreak, how to do that?
[02:50] <geekphreak> peter_curry: in folder ./avast, should ask for key
[02:50] <cipher_> Can anyone help me with fluxbox working(i am trying to get it working on debian, and there irc is very bad).
[02:50] <visof> gogeta, with no lost of the data ?
[02:50] <peter_curry> geekphreak: As I mentioned earlier, it doesn't seem like Avast! is working on my computer.  I also got the following error before: "Deleted stale lock file '/home/peter_curry/.avast/lockfile-peter_curry'."  Then the program would not run after hitting "OK" off of that.  I already entered the license key ...
[02:50] <cipher_> to get it working*
[02:50] <gogeta> cipher_: slect session and fluxbox from gdm
[02:51] <peter_curry> geekphreak:  Perhaps I don't quite understand your last directive ...
[02:51] <cipher_> i have like nothing installed, hell i dont even have wireless access. It did not even come with X.
[02:51] <geekphreak> peter_curry: then rename /home/peter_curry/.avast/lockfile.backup

[02:52] <SuperMiguel> how do i connect to a bluetooth mouse using command line??
[02:52] <gogeta> nigtv: dd
[02:52] <corpse> will it work to installed ubuntu base system on my pc and move the drive to another?

[02:53] <nigtv> hufx: no i want to restore the entire system
[02:53] <IdeAleSs> is there a way to have ubuntu prompt me for my keychain phrase on login?
[02:53] <hufx> nigtv:  as gogeta suggested
[02:54] <nigtv> yes, im looking into dd now, i had just been rsyncing the backup onto the harddrive
[02:54] <geekphreak> __taco1: did you uninstall any application, when system last worked?
[02:54] <nigtv> instead of dd that is
[02:54] <__taco1> geekphreak, at first it works fine, many hours ago, whent I restart the computer, It can't work.
[02:54] <peter_curry> geekphreak: I do I navigate to that ".avast" directory.  I am not seeing it under "/home/peter_curry/"
[02:54] <edbian> nigtv, dd is recommended because it copies at the bit level.
[02:54] <peter_curry> geekphreak: How do I navigate, I mean ...
[02:54] <geekphreak> cd $HOME/.avast
[02:55] <geekphreak> peter_curry: if you running natilus >> press ctrl+h
[02:55] <geekphreak> __taco1: but did you remove any programs?
[02:55] <__taco1> geekphreak, I just want to install another language , but it fail, so I want to restart and install it again.
[02:55] <nigtv> edbian: should I format the thing to ext3? the harddrive i mean, it already is ext3 but there is data on it, i think
[02:56] <root> check
[02:56] <root> no

[03:00] <edbian> nigtv, If you mount the drives you can if=/mount/point of=/other/mount/point
[03:00] <__taco1> geekphreak, ok, maybe I have to give up Ubuntu. I have reinstall ubuntu-10.04 many times. so unstable. thx
[03:00] <prettyhatem> anyone know of a tool to benchmark hard drives in ubuntu?
[03:00] <ikonia> Guest90442: acc ms ?
[03:00] <edbian> nigtv, Or you can dd if=/dev/sdaX of=/some/mount/point
[03:00] <peter_curry> geekphreak: Umm.  Not working.  OK - let's try this.  How do I rename that file to "/home/peter_curry/.avast/lockfile.backup" using terminal?
[03:00] <ikonia> prettyhatem: iostat
[03:00] <nigtv> edbian: dd will stop function correctly even if i did not make the backup with dd?
[03:00] <ikonia> prettyhatem: sar too
[03:00] <nigtv> I mean will function better than rsync would to restore
[03:00] <prettyhatem> ikonia: awesome thanks a ton!
[03:00] <geekphreak> peter_curry: open terminal
[03:01] <Guest90442> yes
[03:01] <Guest90442> thank
[03:01] <edbian> nigtv, dd will stop function correctly  ???  I don't know what you mean?
[03:01] <Guest90442> i dont work
[03:01] <peter_curry> geekphreak: it's open
[03:01] <geekphreak> peter_curry: are you running avast as sudo?
[03:01] <xzc> how to make headphones work? Thanks
[03:01] <geekphreak> sudo avast?
[03:01] <Guest90442> yes
[03:01] <hufx> con-man: try here   http://www.smashingdownloads.com/2009/09/06/guide-on-how-to-play-hd-content-on-your-ps3/
[03:01] <nigtv> edbian: i mean i assume that dd doesnt backup anything more than rsync would under normal conditions,
[03:01] <nigtv> you said bit level
[03:01] <peter_curry> geekphreak: Should I be?  I guess that would be better.  "Sudo" is superuser, right?
[03:02] <geekphreak> right
[03:02] <geekphreak> try sudo avast
[03:02] <nigtv> i mean even if the backup was made with rsync its still better to use dd right? i assumed as much but you never know
[03:02] <Guest90442> try not
[03:02] <edbian> nigtv, dd makes a bit for bit copy of the input at the output.  if  is the input and of is the output (inflow and outflow I believe)
[03:02] <mjcharne> hi - anyone know where I can find 32b libtermcap for ubuntu 10 64b?
[03:02] <Guest90442> no
[03:02] <edbian> nigtv, Yeah, having used rsync doesn't make a difference.
[03:02] <nigtv> okay cool
[03:02] <Guest90442> i try
[03:03] <xzc> how to make headphones work? on 10 04
[03:03] <peter_curry> geekphreak: tried "sudo avast".  It just gave me the same "invalid argument" error.
[03:03] <Guest90442> yes
[03:03] <nigtv> so ill just sudo dd if=blah of=etc
[03:03] <geekphreak> peter_curry: from where did you download avast from mian avast site?
[03:03] <peter_curry> geekphreak: Yes
[03:03] <Guest90442> acc
[03:03] <ikonia> Guest90442: ask a question or please stop talking
[03:03] <peter_curry> geekphreak: I downloaded and installed the debian package.
[03:03] <Guest90442> no
[03:04] <ikonia> Guest90442: ask a question or please stop talking
[03:04] <Guest90442> i knows
[03:04] <xzc> how to make headphones work on ubuntu 10.04
[03:04] <ikonia> Guest90442: then ask the question you need help with
[03:04] <DjDark> question: if Wine is used to run windows programs, is it vulnerable to windows-attacking malware?
[03:04] <ikonia> !repeat | xzc
[03:04] <nigtv> edbian: its giving me an "is a directory" error am i missing something, ill read through the man
[03:04] <Guest90442> technologi hack
[03:04] <edbian> nigtv, Basically.  dd is the hardcore linux command way of doing it :)
[03:04] <geekphreak> peter_curry: last try in terminal type mv $HOME/.avast $HOME/.avast.backup
[03:04] <soupdragon> When will ubuntu 10.04 work on mac pro?
[03:05] <hiexpo> ikonia,  - you in both rooms lol
[03:05] <Guest90442> web hack
[03:05] <ikonia> Guest90442: ask a question
[03:05] <ikonia> hiexpo: I am everywhere
[03:05] <xzc> how to make headphones work on ubuntu 10.04
[03:05] <hiexpo> ikonia,  - lol\
[03:05] <Guest90442> hack web
[03:05] <ikonia> Guest90442: no here - this is ubuntu support, please don't ask for hacking help
[03:05] <Guest90442> yes
[03:06] <cipher_> lol who asked for hacking help?
[03:06] <ikonia> Guest90442: no - don't ask
[03:06] <Guest90442> sorry
[03:06] <patbam> hi, when i upgraded to the latest ubuntu my monitor  stopped working. how should i start to debug that? o.O no idea...
[03:06] <patbam> (i can ssh in)
[03:06] <mjcharne> apt-file does not show a 32b of libtermcap for 10.04. should I post that somewhere?
[03:06] <cipher_> guest90442 join irc.evilzone.org:6667 if you must. they are a good (legal) irc about such things.
[03:06] <geekphreak> peter_curry: one more thing, is avast service running?
[03:06] <nigtv> edbian: im confused about the "is a directory" error, the man page is confusing me atm, should i just run it with wildcards like dd if=/media/mount/*
[03:07] <geekphreak> peter_curry: when you installed avast, did it register any service, if so is it running?
[03:07] <shreymech> URGENT : hello techies.. i have noticed a serious problem in my ubuntu 10.04... when i go to synaptic package mangaer.. and if i click any of the installed package for reinstallation .. i notice that synaptic downloads some additional files .. like suppose i clicked a package of size 300KB for reinstallation.. when i click on apply button. it shows like 1 packgae need to be downloaded of size 27KB.... i m afraid that thing means my all packages are
[03:07] <shreymech> incomplete..?????
[03:07] <edbian> nigtv, I think you can use the recursive flag?  I suggest just going for the partition point though if it's an entire partition.  dd if=/dev/sdXY of=/some/mount/point
[03:08] <edbian> nigtv, careful, dd will overwrite stuff rather easily
[03:08] <ikonia> shreymech: thats not a problem, don't worry about that
[03:08] <Guest90442> i want Compiz Fusion
[03:08] <ikonia> Guest90442: it's already installed
[03:08] <edbian> nigtv, /some/mount/point should be empty...
[03:08] <patbam> shouyuld i try running apt-get dist-upgrade again? ( a friend told me to)
[03:08] <cipher_> shreymech: Those are just dependencies downloading?
[03:08] <Guest90442> yes
[03:08] <hiexpo> sudo apt-get compiz
[03:08] <edbian> Guest90442, turn it on!  System -> Preferences -> appearance
[03:08] <patbam> hiexpo: was that to me?
[03:09] <Guest90442> yes
[03:09] <hiexpo> pat5star,  no sorry should have dirested it
[03:09] <nigtv> edbian: oh so i shouldnt have the target drive mounted?
[03:09] <Guest90442> done
[03:09] <shreymech> cipher_, ikonia: that means dependencies are removed after the instaltion of packgae..???? if not than it should be there at the time of provious insystallations also..
[03:09] <patbam> any body have a tip for me :( i'm in a bind because i can't get i need to use inkscape to do some graphic work
[03:09] <cipher_> could anyone help me with my fluxbox problem it is in debian and the #debian channel is not too helpful.
[03:09] <peter_curry> geekphreak: I got the following error -- "mv: missing destination file operand after '/home/peter_curry/.avast/home/peter_curry/.avast.backup.  Try 'mv -- help' for more information."  What I am doing wrong?
[03:09] <edbian> nigtv, It doesn't matter.  You can do it either way.  I'm just saying it might be easier since it's complaining about it being a folder.
[03:10] <geekphreak> peter_curry: there is a space dude
[03:10] <pure_hate> shreymech, If the programs work, who cares
[03:10] <nigtv> edbian: well the source isnt an entire partition, so its griping about that
[03:10] <Guest90442> wifi
[03:10] <shreymech> pure_hate, thats not a techie attitude
[03:10] <Guest90442> enable wifi
[03:10] <hiexpo> pure_hate,  - howdy starnger  :)
[03:10] <nigtv> cant see a recursive flag for dd in the man page
[03:10] <pure_hate> shreymech, your right, im kind of new. sorry
[03:10] <edbian> nigtv, then use wild cards  I don't see a recursive flag either
[03:10] <Guest90442> dont network
[03:10] <geekphreak> peter_curry: mv /home/peter_curry/.avast   /home/peter_curry/.avast_back
[03:11] <ikonia> shreymech: don't worry about it, the packge manager does a lot of things that aren't obvious, eg: like downloading smaller header files to see if the packages are different from what you already have installed
[03:11] <edbian> nigtv, I'm not a pro with dd.  I've just used it once or twice before
[03:11] <ikonia> nigtv: dd won't work recursive
[03:11] <ikonia> nigtv: it is a block "file" progam
[03:11] <shreymech> ikonia, ohh okk thanxx a lot mann..
[03:11] <mdmkolbe> ikonia: after playing around a bit, I've become convinced that ntfs is an alias for ntfs-3g in fstab.  E.g. remounting a partition with either ntfs or ntfs-3g both respect the .NTFS-3G/UserMapping file.
[03:11] <edbian> ikonia, can you if=/some/folder/*    ?
[03:11] <Onikukki> geekphreak: It works. Thank you very much for your help, I hope you have a good week.
[03:11] <peter_curry> geekphreak: OK I got the space fixed.  Now what do I enter?
[03:11] <geekphreak> Onikukki: have fun good luck
[03:11] <ikonia> edbian: no, you just do the folder and it does everything bellow it on it's own
[03:11] <geekphreak> peter_curry: did the command finish?
[03:11] <edbian> nigtv, There you have it!  You have to do one file at a time.  That is the strength of rsync.  Traverses a file tree for you.  You could use it to copy the files back you know...
[03:12] <ikonia> edbian: * is multiple files, dd is a file copy
[03:12] <nigtv> ikonia: what would you suggest I use? I made the backup with rsync, I tried restoring it with rsync but it seems to just keep wonking out and messing up grub, even when i reinstall the whole bootloader and everything
[03:12] <Guest90442> dont network
[03:12] <ikonia> edbian: although the directory (and it's contents) can also be treated as a file
[03:12] <nigtv> edbian: it complains, grub does, always, no matter what i do, about not being able to read c/h/s
[03:12] <ikonia> nigtv: what exactly are you trying to do ?
[03:12] <edbian> ikonia, nigtv It complained about getting a directory as a source
[03:12] <__taco1> geekphreak, can I ask another question? what I should do if I want change the system to auto login?
[03:12] <shreymech> ikonia, one more problem man... my wifi not working in ubuntu 10.04.. it was workign in 9.10... i have googled my problem and i see that its easy to get BCM drivers working... but mine is : Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG [Golan] Network Connection (rev 02)
[03:12] <peter_curry> geekphreak: I don't know.  It just brought up peter_curry@PJC:~$ again (?)
[03:13] <nigtv> ikonia: i made an rsync copy of my /, which has my home directory also, and now i want to restore that whole backup, onto a blank harddrive
[03:13] <ikonia> shreymech: intel drivers should work out of the box
[03:13] <geekphreak> peter_curry: ok so it worked, try avast now again please
[03:13] <hufx> nigtv: could you not just do a simple copy and paste job?
[03:13] <ikonia> nigtv: do you want to backup the whole operating system, or just the file system
[03:13] <shreymech> ikonia, i couldn't get u .. sorry.. :(
[03:13] <ikonia> shreymech: you have an intel wirless card ?
[03:13] <nigtv> ikonia: well i wanted to back up everything, i just rsynced the / so i may have missed something? I'm not really sure
[03:13] <nigtv> i do have the entire filesystem
[03:14] <Vilemaxim> nigtv, did it copy /proc and /sys and whatnot
[03:14] <nigtv> im having a heck of a time restoring it though
[03:14] <ikonia> nigtv: you need to be specifc, everyhing means nothing, do you want the whole file system, or tha actual whole operating system
[03:14] <psusi> nigtv, so what's the problem?  you copied all of the files to the blank partition right?
[03:14] <shreymech> ikonia, Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG [Golan] Network Connection (rev 02)
[03:14] <ikonia> shreymech: do an "sudo iwconfig" does it show your card ?
[03:14] <nigtv> ikonia: well i backup up the entire /, i would use those two terms interchangably so maybe im confusing you, i want to restore the operating system, which i thought could be done if you had a copy of the entire filesystem
[03:14] <wranger09> help i think i flashed my comp and got the wrong 1
[03:15] <shreymech> ikonia, noo.. not showing....
[03:15] <ikonia> nigtv: no, the file system is not the operating system on it's own
[03:15] <peter_curry> geekphreak: OK - it's prompting me for the license key again.  I have it.  I'll try inputting it again and see if it works this time.
[03:15] <geekphreak> __taco1: you wana enable auto login?
[03:15] <ikonia> nigtv: rsync can't deal with things like "grub" as that's installed on the master boot record of a disk, which is not on a file system
[03:15] <geekphreak> peter_curry: ok
[03:15] <root_admin> dont internet
[03:15] <wranger09> how do i restore my comp to vista
[03:15] <ikonia> nigtv: so do you want to clone the machine to another machine ? is that your end goal ?
[03:15] <nigtv> ikonia: well yea, i figured as much, however isn't there some way to set that up also?
[03:15] <nigtv> no, its back onto the same machine
[03:16] <edbian> nigtv, You could use rsync to bring the files back?
[03:16] <ikonia> nigtv: ok - so take a dd image of the disk, then retore that dd image to the disk
[03:16] <nigtv> ive tried all of the ways i know how to set up the bootloader again and all
[03:16] <root_admin> no watch flash
[03:16] <psusi> nigtv, you will have to manually reinstall grub to make the system bootable after rsycning all of the files back
[03:16] <ikonia> nigtv: that will do everything, including the boot sector
[03:16] <nigtv> i cant take a dd, the filesystem is gone, i only have the / back up
[03:16] <shreymech> ikonia, lo        no wireless extensions.
[03:16] <shreymech> eth1      no wireless extensions.
[03:16] <shreymech> ppp0      no wireless extensions.
[03:16] <shreymech> pan0      no wireless extensions.
[03:16] <FloodBot4> shreymech: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[03:16] <ikonia> shreymech: I see
[03:16] <pure_hate> shreymech, modprobe ipw3945
[03:16] <ikonia> !wirless | shreymech
[03:16] <wranger09> ?
[03:16] <nigtv> psusi: yea, but that seems to cause some horrible problems, about c/h/s not being read
[03:16] <cipher_> @wranger09 dont go back to that thing
[03:16] <psusi> no, dd is not a backup tool!
[03:17] <wranger09> y
[03:17] <ikonia> pure_hate: good call
[03:17] <geekphreak> __taco1: you can manually create the files
[03:17] <nigtv> but nothing in the bios has changed, ive tried all the ways i know how to fix grub
[03:17] <cipher_> @wranger09 one second
[03:17] <ikonia> pure_hate: so you want to retore your system from a backup ?
[03:17] <root_admin> dont watch flash firefox
[03:17] <psusi> nigtv, what does?
[03:17] <nigtv> grub does
[03:17] <ikonia> pure_hate: sorry  not you
[03:17] <root_admin> for ubuntu
[03:17] <peter_curry> geekphreak: OK - it opened fine.  I remember I ran into those problems/errors last time after I attempted to update the virus database.  I'm trying it again to see if I get the same errors ...
[03:17] <pure_hate> ikonia, tab fail?
[03:17] <ikonia> nigtv: so you want to restore you system from a backup
[03:17] <pure_hate> :P
[03:17] <psusi> nigtv, have to be more specific than that
[03:17] <ikonia> pure_hate: brain fail
[03:17] <nigtv> it reads the operating system and kernel version and everything correctly
[03:17] <geekphreak> peter_curry: ok
[03:17] <nigtv> ikonia: yes
[03:17] <mariano> hello again guys!!!! a while ago i logged in here n asked about how can i mount the partitions automatically rather than doing so manually... so someone sent me to a forum... there i read about a package to install... the storage device manager... but i am facing some serious issues with the partitions
[03:17] <pure_hate> haha, hope you dont mind me hanging here, backtrack is slow tonight :-)
[03:18] <shreymech> pure_hate, not found
[03:18] <shreymech> :(
[03:18] <root_admin> yes
[03:18] <nigtv> i can set up grub again, at least I thought I could, im running into some nasty problems though, thought I might be doing something wrong
[03:18] <ikonia> nigtv: right, so make the partitons, copy the file systems onto the new empty partitions, modify the fstab and grub configs, then re-install grub and you should be done
[03:18] <shreymech> ikonia, what to do now..
[03:18] <root_admin> bactrack  slow
[03:18] <digital-diesel> wow this is awesome
[03:18] <ikonia> shreymech: check out pure_hate's comment
[03:18] <hiexpo> pure_hate,   :)
[03:18] <ikonia> root_admin: are you using backtrack ?
[03:18] <root_admin> yes
[03:18] <shreymech> ikonia, i did... its shows not found
[03:18] <nigtv> ikonia: modify grub and fstab? How so? what in them
[03:18] <digital-diesel> i'm using empathy to be here
[03:18] <ikonia> root_admin: then we do not support it here - join #backtrack-linux
[03:18] <pure_hate> shreymech, Can you pastebin : sudo lshw -C network
[03:18] <mariano> now theyre all mounted in read-only mode... including a fat32 partition! it has never happened b4 and i dont even know how 2 change the settings
[03:18] <hiexpo> !backtrack
[03:19] <ikonia> nigtv: it contains your disk layout, (read them for an example)
[03:19] <mariano> besides, i cant even make links (shortcuts)
[03:19] <root_admin> thank ikoonia
[03:19] <mariano> can anyone please help me
[03:19] <nigtv> right, but would i need to grab new uuids or something? im sorry
[03:19] <Blade-Runner> shreymech : yes
[03:19] <root_admin> some me
[03:19] <digital-diesel> ikonia: thanks for the help earlier..  i upgraded rhythmbox and the im status works great now
[03:19] <ikonia> digital-diesel: you helped yourself, well done
[03:19] <shreymech> pure_hate, Blade-Runner , pasting
[03:20] <nigtv> ikonia: what do i change in the fstab?
[03:20] <nigtv> if its back onto the same system in the same way and everything wouldnt it all be the same
[03:20] <Blade-Runner> shreymech : having issue
[03:20] <ikonia> nigtv: the disk identifiers to your new partition identifiers,
[03:20] <shreymech> Blade-Runner, yess
[03:21] <Blade-Runner> shreymech : what kind?
[03:21] <__taco1> geekphreak, what is context of that file?
[03:21] <peter_curry> geekphreak: OK - after attempting to update the virus database - I got the same errors again and then it informed me the program would terminate.  So what good is this software if the virus definitions won't update?
[03:21] <shreymech> pure_hate, http://paste.ubuntu.com/440654/
[03:22] <mariano> i was installin the package pysdm
[03:22] <peter_curry> geekphreak: I've tried clamav - but it freezes and stalls every time I try running a scan on the entire system.
[03:22] <shreymech> Blade-Runner, my wifi not working in ubuntu 10.04... :( check my provious posts above
[03:23] <geekphreak> peter_curry: thats wierd
[03:23] <peter_curry> geekphreak: Clamava does the same thing on certain directories when I try running scans on directories individually ...
[03:23] <nigtv> ikonia: so i grab the new UUID's, put them into the fstab and grub.cfg files, then reinstall grub?
[03:23] <pure_hate> shreymech, and: lsmod | grep iwl3945
[03:24] <ikonia> nigtv: pretty much that's it
[03:24] <ikonia> nigtv: that should at least get your system booting (you may need some other minor house keeping)
[03:24] <nigtv> how would i go about installing grub again? i suppose that i could google....
[03:24] <peter_curry> geekphreak: maybe I shouldn't be as concerned as I am about this virus thing.  It would just be nice if either Avast or Clam AV would run properly ...
[03:24] <ikonia> !grub2 > nigtv
[03:24] <ikonia> nigtv: no need to google, ubottu is your friend
[03:24] <geekphreak> peter_curry: at this point of time i would be more concerned why both aint working
[03:24] <mariano> hello again guys!!!! a while ago i logged in here n asked about how can i mount the partitions automatically rather than doing so manually... so someone sent me to a forum... there i read about a package to install... the storage device manager... but i am facing some serious issues with the partitions
[03:24] <mariano>  now theyre all mounted in read-only mode... including a fat32 partition! it has never happened b4 and i dont even know how 2 change the settings
[03:24] <mariano>  besides, i cant even make links (shortcuts)
[03:24] <mariano>  can anyone please help me
[03:24] <mariano>  i was installin the package pysdm
[03:25] <FloodBot4> mariano: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[03:25] <hiexpo> peter_curry, no known virus to linux
[03:25] <nigtv> ikonia: ah yes grub2 sorry i keep saying grub
[03:25] <nigtv> hiexpo: you sure about that?
[03:25] <ikonia> nigtv: don't worry, check the url from ubottu, it is very good
[03:25] <edbian> peter_curry, There are some proof of concept viruses that work if the user does something silly or the attacker knows a lot about the user.  None of really been spotted in the wild
[03:25] <hiexpo> nigtv,  - well kinda lol
[03:26] <geekphreak> peter_curry: is terminal stil open?
[03:26] <RudyValencia> hey, does anyone know how to speed up VNC on Ubuntu?
[03:26] <nigtv> hiexpo: theres malware for linux, i believe there are viruses and such also
[03:26] <peter_curry> geekphreak: Do you know of any other free antivirus program for Linux/Ubuntu that I could try besides Avast! or Clam AV.  Should I simply reinstall Ubuntu 10.04?  Terminal is not still open.
[03:27] <ikonia> peter_curry: why are you concerned about virus's ?
[03:27] <pure_hate> peter_curry, Trinity rescue disc has 4 AV scanner you can run as a boot/live disc
[03:27] <geekphreak> peter_curry: avg has linux version, it notifys you of virus , wont remove it sadly
[03:27] <hiexpo> nigtv,  just malware as far as i know thats why i said kinda  but who knows
[03:27] <shreymech> pure_hate, i did... no output..
[03:27] <geekphreak> peter_curry: i would not reinstall system
[03:27] <greensimian> Hey in gnome is there a way to tile open windows?
[03:27] <shreymech> Blade-Runner, u checked..??
[03:27] <Blade-Runner> shreymech : yes
[03:28] <peter_curry> ikonia: I just want to be responsible user, that's all.
[03:28] <nigtv> ikonia: such a pity ill have my system up and running, i was just getting used to running from usb :) thank you
[03:28] <geekphreak> peter_curry: wana try something for me?
[03:28] <elb0w> Any clue as to why I get SIOCADDRT: No such process when trying to set a static route?
[03:28] <nigtv> heres to hoping
[03:28] <ikonia> peter_curry: then don't worry about virus's or anti-virus programs, they will make more hassle for you than a virus
[03:28] <geekphreak> peter_curry: can you open terminal ?
[03:28] <Blade-Runner> shreymech : mean time check...
[03:29] <Blade-Runner> !wireless | shreymech
[03:29] <RudyValencia> hey, how do I speed up VNC when connecting to Ubuntu?
[03:29] <ikonia> nigtv: no problem, shout if you have specific issues
[03:29] <peter_curry> geekphreak: OK - terminal is open.
[03:30] <ikonia> peter_curry: the antivirus programs for linux will not protect you against anything, so the best thing to do is accept that virus's dont work the same in linux and only use software from trusted sources
[03:30] <geekphreak> peter_curry: sudo apt-get install rkhunter chkrootkit
[03:30] <geekphreak> ikonia: i agree with you sir
[03:30] <edbian> peter_curry, I have been running linux for about 3 years now.  You know how many virus and malware scans I've done?  zero
[03:31] <pure_hate> peter_curry, If you are really concerened, do a fresh install and set up something like tripwire. I use it on all the servers I maintain.
[03:31] <ikonia> pure_hate: exceptional form tonight
[03:31] <geekphreak> tripwire is nice :d
[03:31] <gauz> hi
[03:31] <gauz>  i have 2 laptops - sony vaio and ibm thinkpad ...i would like to connect both of them so that i can enjoy dual display/screens by keeping one machine idle
[03:31] <edbian> gauz, Hello
[03:31] <shadyabhi> edbian: i am too running Arch since 3yrs... an no reinstalltion and no viruses
[03:31] <gauz> can anyone help me in this?
[03:31] <geekphreak> edbian: you remember portsentry tool?
[03:32] <edbian> shadyabhi, I love arch!  I got into it for a while but debian beat it to the punch.  Better documentation
[03:32] <Blade-Runner> !ndiswrapper | shreymech
[03:32] <SoftwareTech10> First of all, it is called: Debian
[03:32] <peter_curry> geekphreak: I get this response "E: invalid operation rkhunter
[03:32] <edbian> geekphreak, Do I remember it?  No not really.  Should I?
[03:32] <ikonia> shadyabhi: you're running arch, not ubuntu ?
[03:32] <pure_hate> iwl3945 should NOT need ndiswrapper
[03:32] <Blade-Runner>  shreymech  : did you read the Docs..
[03:32] <shadyabhi> may be.. but iam faithful to arch :D
[03:33] <mariano_> can anyone help me please?
[03:33] <edbian> shadyabhi, I did love the rolling packages...
[03:33] <geekphreak> edbian: it was a good ol tool along with tripwire i used on rhl based system , had issues with it on debian based system
[03:33] <peter_curry> pure_hate: How would I do a fresh install of Ubuntu 10.04?  I only have Linux on my system.

[03:33] <eigensteigen> hey im trying to run 10.04 on vmware player and the keyboard doesn't work @ the login screen anyone know what is going on?
[03:33] <ikonia> peter_curry: boot from a cd and install it
[03:33] <psusi> peter_curry, same way you did in the first place... pop in the install cd and boot up
[03:33] <edbian> peter_curry, Download the live CD and install it.  You'd lose your data though.
[03:33] <geekphreak> peter_curry: should have installed it ummm
[03:33] <pure_hate> peter_curry, boot the disc and install it. Then before you connect to the internet, set up trip wire
[03:34] <edbian> peter_curry, Sorry to make you repeat but, Do you think you have a virus?
[03:34] <geekphreak> edbian: he is playing it safe
[03:34] <edbian> geekphreak, Thanks
[03:34] <Blade-Runner>  shreymech  : does it work with windows
[03:34] <peter_curry> edbian - where do I download the live CD from?  I obviously need CD's for that ...
[03:34] <shreymech> Blade-Runner, yess... very fine

[03:37] <DjDark> brb smoke break
[03:37] <edbian> gauz, Turn the "second" display computer on.  Turn the "primary" display computer off.  Plug secondary into primary.  Turn on primary.  See how the second display is auto-detected (it might just work).  Trouble shoot from there.
[03:37] <veebull> !automate
[03:37] <hufx> mariano_:  I just sent you a pm
[03:37] <SoftwareTech10> He won't have a virus. Have you changed your  keyboard settings on installation?
[03:37] <peter_curry> edbian: I don't know if I have a virus.  But I like to play it safe ...
[03:38] <edbian> geekphreak, I am never in there!  It must be from here.  You called me "friend" I figured you remembered :)
[03:38] <xangua> uses libpurple like pidgin and also conects all that pidgin does happyface
[03:38] <edbian> !ask | mariano
[03:38] <geekphreak> edbian: :)
[03:38] <edbian> peter_curry, Understandable.  I bet you $100 you won't even experience a virus in linux for 2 years :)
[03:38] <pure_hate> iwl3945 has been working in the linux kernel since 2.6.26 and should not need ndiswrapper, just saying
[03:38] <geekphreak> peter_curry: follow simple routines, you should be ok
[03:38] <happyface> xangua: looks good, thanks!
[03:39] <Blade-Runner>  shreymech  : when thats done let me know

[03:41] <pure_hate> shreymech, try this: rmmod -f iwl3945
[03:41] <pure_hate> && modprobe iwl3945 disable_hw_scan=1
[03:41] <edbian> gauz, Oh yeah.  Forgot that detail! :)  There are ways to connect computers as terminals via TCP/IP.  I don't know any details about it though.  Sound like a fun project! I'm jealous

[03:49] <hmmwhatsthisdo> anyone?
[03:50] <edbian> I'd like to create a linux based media center PC that can stream media over LAN to other linux and windows PC's and to an xbox 360.  This computer will be headless.  Can this be done?

[03:58] <shreymech> Blade-Runner, sorry
[03:58] <wranger09> can anyone tell me y pal talk don't work on ubuntu?
[03:58] <feedmecereal> Some music just started playing through my speakers and I don't know why or what program it is coming from. How do I make it stop?
[03:59] <BPower> I have a second screen connected to my laptop.  Would the "Identifier" in xorg.conf then be "Monitor1" (where "Monitor0" = my laptop's main screen)
[03:59] <xangua> feedmecereal: do you have the browser open¿..........
[03:59] <Blade-Runner> shreymech : ps -A
[03:59] <BPower> ^?
[03:59] <feedmecereal> xangua: I closed the browser and that didn't help
[03:59] <BPower> feedmecereal, are you using Google Chrome?
[03:59] <xangua> feedmecereal: do you have mplayer or gnome mplayer plugins for the browser¿¿
[04:00] <greezmunkey> For weeks all we heard was ppl complaining that sound wouldn't work at all, *now* they want it to stop??
[04:00] <Blade-Runner> shreymech : what's happening...
[04:00] <acerimmer_> feedmecereal: any movie player or rhythmbox players running??
[04:00] <greezmunkey> feedmecereal: what does it sound like?
[04:00] <alonea> any ideas how to get my built in mic in my netbook to work? camera works fine.
[04:00] <tertl3> hi
[04:00] <feedmecereal> xangua: I do and I was playing on a web video at the time
[04:01] <feedmecereal> greezmunkey: the music sounds like the radio
[04:01] <acerimmer_> alonea: fiddle with your sound hardware preferences.
[04:01] <RyanTzor> Hey im new to conky does any1 have a second to walk me through its features?
[04:01] <alonea> acerimmer_: I looked, but am a little confused
[04:01] <arand> feedmecereal: If you open sound preferences, and go to appliations, you should be able to tell what is playing,
[04:01] <BPower> feedmecereal, were you using Google Chrome?
[04:01] <acerimmer_> alonea: wait1
[04:02] <feedmecereal> BPower: I was not using Google Chrome
[04:02] <xangua> feedmecereal: then maybe it didn't finished when you closed it, open the System monitor and search it
[04:02] <feedmecereal> BPower I was using Firefox
[04:02] <Blade-Runner> shreymech : ??
[04:02] <bastid_raZor> RyanTzor: http://conky.sourceforge.net/documentation.html   .. it can do it all as the documentation page will showyou.
[04:02] <shreymech> Blade-Runner, pasting
[04:02] <skypce> i need  help , i compile a new kernel for ubuntu, it doesnt generate initrd and returns kernel panic - not syncing vfs. unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0)
[04:02] <greezmunkey> feedmecereal: look up in the motification area, is there an icon, like for rythembox there?
[04:02] <BPower> feedmecereal, k. there's a known Flash/Chrome bug where audio is played by two processes, and the second process never stops.
[04:02] <BPower> carry on
[04:03] <Blade-Runner> shreymech : why are you pasting?
[04:03] <shreymech> Blade-Runner, http://paste.ubuntu.com/440663/
[04:03] <RyanTzor> bastid: thanks again! and how familiar are you with crunchbang?
[04:03] <greezmunkey> BPower: wow, really!
[04:03] <alonea> acerimmer_: ok. could it  be drivers?
[04:03] <wranger09> i want to have xp pro on my puter
[04:03] <wranger09> any ideas
[04:03] <BPower> greezmunkey, ya, only in the latest dev release in *nix though
[04:03] <greezmunkey> wranger09: try in #windows or something
[04:04] <bastid_raZor> RyanTzor: i am ubuntu loyal. i have never strayed since switching from windows 5 years ago.
[04:04] <BPower> So I have a second screen connected to my laptop.  Would the "Identifier" in xorg.conf then be "Monitor1" (where "Monitor0" = my laptop's main screen)?
[04:04] <wranger09> there is no such room on here
[04:04] <greezmunkey> BPower: googling that now, that's wierd.
[04:04] <feedmecereal> Firefox is not running and I was not not usening Chrome. The sound is in some other language. This is very weird.
[04:04] <RyanTzor> bastid: haha alright thank you for you're help i'll keep on working with it. I really appreciate it!
[04:04] <shreymech> Blade-Runner, hey this time it opnened
[04:04] <DuDu> hola
[04:04] <BPower> greezmunkey, I think Adobe fixed it - just waiting for the update now.
[04:04] <DuDu> hello
[04:04] <DuDu> hi
[04:04] <greezmunkey> feedmecereal: do you see an icon in the notification area
[04:04] <acerimmer_> alonea: yes, but if u have sound AT ALL it's probably just a configuration setting - very common.
[04:04] <ReidZB> Just a quick question: I have a really old laptop that gets a "crc error" on boot - is it completely dead, or still savable by a reinstall of some type?
[04:05] <DuDu> hi
[04:05] <feedmecereal> greezemunkey: no
[04:05] <DuDu> hello
[04:05] <feedmecereal> greezemunkey: oh wait
[04:05] <Blade-Runner> shreymech : how are you linking the .inf file

[04:05] <feedmecereal> greeezemunkey: what icon?
[04:05] <IdleOne> !hi | DuDu

[04:07] <SuperMiguel> whats a fast/light imap mail client?
[04:07] <hmmwhatsthisdo> Has anyone had any problems downloading the torrents for Lucid recently? I tried to get the torrent for Lucid alt. i386 yesterday, and the tracker server wasn't responding.
[04:07] <xangua> SuperMiguel: claws mail

[04:07] <RudyValencia> How do I get a faster remote connection?
[04:08] <RudyValencia> VNC is too slow.
[04:08] <RudyValencia> (and the client is running Windows.)
[04:08] <acerimmer_> alonea: pretty sure your solution is there.  but to double check you could run audacity or skype to see if u get sound thru
[04:08] <greezmunkey> BPower: I found a possible fix for that, they say to reinstall libflashsupport for pulseaudio: sudo apt-get reinstall pulseaudio libflashsupport, and that a reboot may be necessary...
[04:08] <skypce> i need  help , i compile a new kernel for ubuntu, it doesnt generate initrd and returns kernel panic - not syncing vfs. unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0)
[04:08] <alonea> acerimmer_: I am in skype right now and he cant hear me. only see me
[04:09] <alonea> acerimmer_: and I tried everything under the sound options with no change
[04:09] <orangeglo> is there anyway to play games on steam without them lagging insanely fucking hard?
[04:10] <IdleOne> orangeglo: i don't know and please watch your language.
[04:10] <orangeglo> idleone: can you really not say fuck in this channel? come on...
[04:10] <acerimmer_> alonea: take a look at Skype Options>Sound Options.  Other than that, I don't know.
[04:10] <nigtv> hi, i needed some help getting the UUID's of my partitions
[04:10] <acerimmer_> orangeglo: grow up or go home

[04:12] <greezmunkey> bastid_raZor: nice :)
[04:12] <alonea> acerimmer_: yeah, no luck so far. Will google around and see if anything shows up
[04:14] <coderipper> anybody running BasiliskII in Lucid?
[04:14] <acerimmer_> Lucid Window Controls vanish on LOGIN.  I reinstalled the metacity packages with synaptic.  No fix.  I have to go to Appearances and re-enable Visual Effects but that only works until next login.  Any ideas?
[04:14] <cody__> does anyone here have steam installeD?
[04:14] <Chuck27> big ban list here lol
[04:15] <greezmunkey> acerimmer_: pretty strange, I don't have a sound card i this PC, I plugged in a Logitech usb headset, viola! Sound works, skype works (even with the mic), so it must be issues with native sound boards huh.
[04:15] <kassah> cody__, yes
[04:16] <cody__> kassah: do your games lag?
[04:16] <acerimmer_> greezmunkey: yeah, i've got great sound but had to change settings for my headset.  NOW i have to reconfigure to get speakers back
[04:16] <dmglouis> does anyone have any idea how to access outlook web access premium on ubuntu? I know that it works on Linux because my school computers use red hat and using firefox, I get access to owa premium.
[04:16] <xangua> acerimmer_: you modified someting in gcong-editor or compiz settigs manager¿
[04:16] <RudyValencia> why doesn't my shift key work in vnc and why is it so slow
[04:16] <bastid_raZor> cody__: nice ban evasion :) glad to see you can keep calm this time around.
[04:16] <RudyValencia> guess i'll go back to windows
[04:16] <greezmunkey> acerimmer_: wow, like they just don't want to play nice together.
[04:16] <kassah> cody__, I havn't played any games through it... I mostly use it for IM for my buddies who don't use any other IM service. sorry... the UI is very laggy for me.
[04:16] <alonea> acerimmer_: ok, I went under alsamixer and played with stuff. Now he hears static, and when I turn mic up, static gets louder
[04:16] <acerimmer_> xangua: yes compiz.  used ubuntu tweak.  is there a command to reset gcong??
[04:17] <cody__> kassah: ya its too laggy to play anything. im sure there is a way to get games to play smoothly
[04:17] <xangua> acerimmer_: then search in ubuntu tweak what you modified
[04:17] <acerimmer_> alonea: so u made proress then!  lol.  So many variables...
[04:17] <piyushmishra> hi how do i make my 2nd hard disk load directly without mounting and unmounting all the time on 10.04 LTS ?
[04:17] <RudyValencia> i can't do anything over vnc without shift key and with it being so dog-slow
[04:17] <acerimmer_> xangua: tried that.  looking for a terminal alternative
[04:18] <greezmunkey> I read some security papers this morning that mentions one of the worst things you can do is use scripts like ubuntu tweak, is that about right?
[04:18] <coderipper> piyu: you need to edit fstab to mount on boot.
[04:18] <bastid_raZor> greezmunkey: ubuntu tweak is the lazy way and in my opinion goes right with envyng
[04:18] <alonea> acerimmer_: ok, on one forum it said pulseaudio = bad and to get rid of it. might as well try...
[04:18] <acerimmer_> alonea: i wouldn't do that if i wuz u...
[04:18] <coderipper> me, either.
[04:19] <Sereph> im trying to recover a ubuntu 10.04 install.. grub menu comes up and then ubuntu splash screen.. then it just shows a black screen
[04:19] <alonea> acerimmer_: *shurgs* I can always reinstall it. I have never even heard of pulse audio. used to the older stuff
[04:19] <greezmunkey> bastid_raZor: there you go!
[04:19] <surplusxmas> I have an HP HDX notebook equipped with an SD•MS/Pro•MMC•XD card reader manufactured by JMicron Technology Corp. How can I get Ubuntu to recognize and operate it?
[04:20] <piyushmishra> coderipper: how do i do that?
[04:20] <acerimmer_> brb.  Gotta see if i just frakked my gconf...
[04:20] <Reldo> hey guys
[04:21] <nigtv> Hi, I cant seem to get the UUID for my swap with blkid
[04:21] <greezmunkey> surplusxmas: there is some help if you google "ubuntu sd reader" - you could try that...
[04:21] <kassah> cody__, I generally setup one .wine directory per game... and steam doesn't let me do that...
[04:21] <nigtv> i sudo blkid /dev/sda5
[04:21] <kassah> cody__, so I find it very hard to use in linux.
[04:21] <Reldo> anybody here use backtrack?
[04:21] <surplusxmas> greezmunkey: Thank you. I will try that out.
[04:21] <nigtv> just returns "type=swap"
[04:21] <ShroudedCloud> Hey, I'm running a LiveUSB of 10.04 on a laptop and everytime I go to run the install program, it automatically shuts down, any ideas of what's up?
[04:21] <RudyValencia> hello?
[04:21] <iantlopp> I'm trying to get a shuttlepro working with ubuntu lucid, but can't find any way of testing the buttons, etc... is there a way to see the input from a USB HID device in ubuntu?
[04:22] <Reldo> @shrouded, check the boot disc for errors, could be a bad burn, cheap media, scratches, or the BIOS may need to be reset
[04:22] <bastid_raZor> nigtv: ls /dev/disk/by-uuid/   and elimate the UUID's you see via blkid
[04:22] <kassah> iamm, cat /dev/input/event*
[04:22] <kassah> iamm, one of those files
[04:22] <kassah> iamm, don't use the *
[04:23] <hmmwhatsthisdo> Hey, is anyone able to connect to the Ubuntu Releases torrent tracker?
[04:23] <IdeAleSs> is there a way to change how long notifications are shown for?
[04:23] <iantlopp> kassah: are you talking to me?
[04:23] <hufx> nigtv: is it not listed in /etc/fstab?
[04:23] <kassah> iantlopp, yeah... sorry...
[04:23] <iantlopp> kassah: it's okay... one of the reasons I try not to use autocomplete
[04:24] <hmmwhatsthisdo> anyone? I'm trying to get the i386 install of Lucid, and the torrent is not working now.
[04:24] <iantlopp> heh
[04:24] <hmmwhatsthisdo> it appears that the torrent tracker is down.
[04:24] <kassah> iantlopp, hehe... yeah... but it should at least give you gobbly-gook when you do something with the HID device...
[04:25] <iantlopp> kassah: I'm getting no such file or directory (probably because I'm a horrible newb at this)
[04:25] <duckwars> I made a script that converts videos by using an FFMPEG command... I was wondering if there is someway I can make it convert a list of videos with one command
[04:25] <halorgium> duckwars: bash loops?
[04:25] <wiggles> duckwars: i use GNU rm for that
[04:25] <kassah> iantlopp, first... cd to the dir /dev/input/
[04:25] <kassah> iantlopp, then do ls
[04:25] <hmmwhatsthisdo> can anyone even hear/see me?
[04:26] <ShroudedCloud> hmmwhatsthisdo, yes.
[04:26] <duckwars> halorgium: I'm not sure what loops are... I was BARELY able to put the script together
[04:26] <iantlopp> there, kassah
[04:26] <duckwars> wiggles: what is GNU rm?
[04:26] <kassah> iantlopp, that should list the directory... there should be like event0-5.. or more... or less
[04:26] <zee52> wats a good video capture card software for ubuuntu?
[04:26] <bastid_raZor> hmmwhatsthisdo: http://releases.ubuntu.com/lucid/ubuntu-10.04-desktop-i386.iso.torrent    .. this started immediately after adding it to tranmission..
[04:26] <iantlopp> 1-14 and a few extras... mouse0-3, mice, js0
[04:26] <iantlopp> etc..
[04:26] <wiggles> duckwars: its a tool to convert videos
[04:26] <halorgium> duckwars: i think wiggles is playing a trick on you
[04:26] <acerimmer_> hmmm.  got my window controls back and will have to rebuild the panels.  oh well.
[04:27] <halorgium> duckwars:        rm - remove files or directories
[04:27] <wiggles> duckwars: just rm *.avi or whatever
[04:27] <duckwars> wiggles: i see, rm command
[04:27] <kassah> iantlopp, do... cat event# (replacing # with the number of the event)... then do somethign with the hid device (press the button) if something shows up... then it was the right one =)
[04:27] <duckwars> yes, lolerskates were ridden
[04:27] <IdleOne> duckwars: rm is the command used to remove/delete files
[04:27] <acerimmer_> duckwars: as in frack your file system
[04:27] <hmmwhatsthisdo> bastid_raZor: Ok. It's not even connecting to the tracker server after adding it into *any* torrent client. It appears that the tracker is down on my end.
[04:27] <iantlopp> zee52: from what I've heard, Kino captures video well.
[04:27] <wiggles> halorgium: no thats redhat rm
[04:27] <zee52> ok ty
[04:27] <kassah> iantlopp, do that to each event... if none of them match.. then it's proboly not working.
[04:27] <iantlopp> ahh, thanks Kassah
[04:27] <halorgium> wiggles: actually gentoo, but close ;)
[04:27] <wiggles> GNU rm is different
[04:27] <IdleOne> wiggles: either offer good advice starting right now or be banned. last warning
[04:27] <iantlopp> well I've got to reattach the device :)
[04:27] <kassah> iantlopp, unfortunately I cannot stay... being called to dinner... good luck!
[04:27] <iantlopp> thanks very much for the help kassah
[04:27] <Kbca> oal galera
[04:28] <halorgium> wiggles: though gentoo uses GNU coreutils, so it is the same :P
[04:28] <bastid_raZor> hmmwhatsthisdo: not sure how that would be but if you say so.
[04:28] <acerimmer_> wiggles: man rm shows it as "remove files or directories".  proceed with caution
[04:28] <iantlopp> kassah: AWESOME!! okay, it's event16
[04:28] <nigtv> how would I go about updating/installing grub2 on a harddrive while running in livecd?
[04:28] <iantlopp> was easy enough to find as it showed up on LS after I plugged it into the system.
[04:28] <wiggles> i use it to convert media, like if i want avi to mpeg, i just do rm *.avi *.mpg
[04:28]  * iantlopp likey linux
[04:28] <JHAY> hello all...i am very new to ubuntu
[04:29] <bastid_raZor> !grub2 | nigtv  follow the guide
[04:29] <halorgium> wiggles: gimme a shell on your box, i wanna try your rm out!
[04:29] <acerimmer_> JHAY: greetings
[04:29] <iantlopp> jhay: same here, good to see you :)
[04:29] <nigtv> bastid_raZor: there now, ill read again
[04:29] <JHAY> i just installed on hp mini 311 netbook alongside my windows 7...install went smoothly but boot hangs right after selecting os
[04:29] <hmmwhatsthisdo> bastid_raZor: It may just be my torrent client "having a moment"
[04:29] <JHAY> and i have no idea what to do
[04:29] <greezmunkey> rm has been around for ages, from the wiki:The 1971 version of rm did not have any of the options that current versions have., so there :P
[04:29] <acerimmer_> JHAY: did u install as dual boot or as wubi?
[04:29] <nigtv> im just having trouble updating the file because im not running from the device im updating
[04:29] <test34> jhay, its hanging smooth?
[04:29] <JHAY> dual boot
[04:30] <nigtv> very confusing
[04:30] <asina12> hi...anyone has used internet exploter under wine?
[04:30] <bastid_raZor> nigtv: it talks about chroot 'ing to your existing install
[04:30] <test34> asina12, many did
[04:30] <acerimmer_> JHAY: did it EVER boot?
[04:30] <JHAY> nope
[04:30] <JHAY> it installed fine from usb but would not ever boot
[04:31] <brax> Will someone explain to me how hash functions are used for passwords?
[04:31] <acerimmer_> JHAY: can u boot windows or do u get NO boot?
[04:31] <asina12> test34: oh...okay...i just want to ask, are there any issues if the website needs the directx plugin?
[04:31] <JHAY> also the first time i tried to boot windows it did not boot but then it ran a file check on C: and now windows boots fine
[04:32] <JHAY> except that randomly my clock was reset 4 hours behind normal time...weird bug
[04:32] <acerimmer_> JHAY: good.  sounds like some grub config issues.  you're running 10.04 ubuntu desktop?
[04:32] <JHAY> 10.04 netbook
[04:32] <test34> asina12, I didnt know you could have a website that used directx, do you have an example?
[04:32] <acerimmer_> JHAY: not a bug on the time thing.  not sure if it's setting manually or leaving the time to computer sync but one of them throws the clock
[04:33] <edev> Hi, all. Why is Ubuntu Desktop 64-bit not recommended for daily desktop use, if I may ask?
[04:33] <asina12> test34: sorry...I meant an activex plugin
[04:33] <acerimmer_> JHAY: confirm - you're running ubuntu notebook edition?
[04:33] <JHAY> netbook, yeah
[04:33] <govatent> Hello. I have virtualbox installed in lucid and for some reason after every reboot I have to run  /etc/init.d/vboxdrv start by hand. is there a way to auto start the driver?
[04:33] <acerimmer_> JHAY: try to boot the recovery mode
[04:34] <acerimmer_> if u get in, use your repair options
[04:34] <JHAY> okay...i did try to boot recovery once
[04:34] <bastid_raZor> !boot | govatent
[04:34] <JHAY> it seemed as though it was booting fine...loading controls/ whatever, but hung in the same way after about 10 seconds
[04:34] <bastid_raZor> govatent: /etc/rc.local is where you'll want to add your script
[04:35] <govatent> thank you for the advice bastid_raZor
[04:35] <test34> asina12, I wouldnt be surprised if there was issues with activex
[04:35] <greezmunkey> asina12: Check this out: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/running-internet-explorer-in-ubuntu-linux.html
[04:36] <Sereph> how can I decrypt my home directory permanantly
[04:36] <Sereph> from a chroot as its not bootable

[04:36] <skrite> i installed unetbootin from aur, how do i run it?

[04:37]  * Octavi0 Frustrated with ati 9200 Radeon
[04:37] <acerimmer_> JHAY: i think this is the tutorial you want.  take your time, follow the instructions.  if you got the installation done, then your file system is in place.  reinstalling should be your very last option.  http://tolearnfree.blogspot.com/2009/12/how-to-fix-grub2-on-ubuntu-910.html
[04:37] <Onikukki> I am struggling to set my Ubuntu display to native res in VirtualBox. Could someone help me? =]
[04:37] <test34> asina12, there is issues even if you use windows, so there is probably issues in a virtual machine too;)
[04:37] <govatent> i forgot i could do that. thanks greezmunkey
[04:37] <JHAY> appreciate it
[04:38] <acerimmer_> Onikukki: don't think it can be done.
[04:38] <masterslakk> onikukki, vbox
[04:38] <masterslakk> #vbox
[04:38] <Onikukki> Thanks
[04:38] <asina12> test34: um...but the site I am interested in is rendering perfectly fine under windows....r u referring to activex in general?
[04:39] <greezmunkey> asina12: did you see that url I gave you, it deals with IEs4Linux, it may work for you.
[04:39] <joesuffceren> trying to resize an FAT32 partition with parted and keep getting "unable to satisfy all constraints on the partition". did some googling and didn't find anything applicable. any thoughts?
[04:40] <asina12> greezmunkey: sorry...I just noticed it
[04:40] <test34> asina12, I'm just referring to bugs in general..
[04:40] <casa> hey, how install debian, somebady have a tutorial for this??

[04:43] <casa> yes, i ask to #debian jet, better, never foult
[04:44] <greezmunkey> s/standatr/standard - (new keyboard, heh)
[04:44] <iamm> anyone could help?
[04:45] <Coded1> my mobo supports an integrated HDMI audio and regular audio card/device.  Its hooked up to my tv via HDMI so I want all audio going through HDMI I found various pages that tell you how to alter the way the modules are loaded but in this case both modules are named the same.  how do I get all the audio going directly to hdmi ?
[04:45] <bastid_raZor> casa: this channel is for Ubuntu. there is no debian assistance provided.
[04:45] <SuperMiguel> when using openbox, and menu, where do you edit the menus?

[04:47] <asina12> greezmunkey: any idea if ies4linux support activex plugin? because it is meant for web designers to test their sites....I think i might as well use wine, no?
[04:47] <greezmunkey> lo
[04:47] <samc> Coded1: you want to set up your /etc/asound.conf to tell it to use SPDIF as the output
[04:48] <greezmunkey> lo
[04:48] <samc> Coded1: aplay -l and aplay -L will give you a list of output devices on your card; you're looking for an iec958 device
[04:49] <iamm> okay when running lshw -C network gives me 'network UNCLAIMED' on the broadcom wifi
[04:49] <iamm> could anyone..
[04:49] <Flakeparadigm> hello
[04:50] <snadge> where can i find the kernel and initrd to do a paravirtual xen ubuntu install?
[04:50] <greezmunkey> So I enabled ufw, is there a caned reporting - or real time monitor for it? Am I looking at gufw?
[04:50] <snadge> the alternate install cd? or server cd?
[04:50] <Shamoun> hey guys
[04:51] <Shamoun> i am looking at the ubuntu download page and it says 32-bit recommended for most users. 64 bit not recommended for daily desktop use. why is that? are thre less packages for 64 bit or something?
[04:52] <blackstar> on ubuntu lucid desktop, does any body know why i can delete files and folders own by root under any standard user account whenever i use nautilus ?
[04:52] <bastid_raZor> Shamoun: can you give me the link to that page?
[04:52] <Shamoun> bastid_raZor, http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/download
[04:52] <bastid_raZor> blackstar: if you're running nautilus with root permissions it will be abel to do anything
[04:53] <bastid_raZor> Shamoun: wow.. i use 64-bit for nearly a year now. daily. unsure why it states that.
[04:53] <ubuntu_> someone to help me to modify my script code in bash??
[04:53] <blackstar> yes but i'm not running it as root,
[04:54] <greezmunkey> blackstar: gksu nautilus &
[04:54] <blackstar> tks
[04:54] <Coded1> samc, ty, I have a listing from "aplay -L" for IEC958 as well as HDMI, but I have no /etc/asound.conf file ... should I create it ?
[04:54] <greezmunkey> blackstar: be *careful*
[04:54] <wgwinn> Shamoun:  I was curious about hte 64-bit too.. last time i used ubuntu flash was still. well; a horrid nightmare, but it's flash, so...
[04:55] <samc> Coded1: yeah it doesn't exist by default - if it's not there it just picks whatever audio device it wants
[04:55] <slops> hey all
[04:55] <Flakeparadigm> I installed Ubuntu Lucid and now my volume is extremely quiet. I have every output channel turned up to it's fullest but still not very loud. How can I fix this? Audio device: Intel Corporation N10/ICH 7 Family High Definition Audio Controller (rev 01)
[04:55] <Coded1> samc, cool will give it a shot
[04:55] <samc> there's also a gui for choosing digital output within gnome, but I'm not sure if that works differently to asound.conf
[04:55] <samc> I've got two sounds cards in my PC at home, and pulseaudio and alsa have given me no end of trouble :)
[04:56] <slops> every time i reboot the computer now since loading 10.4_x64 i get a white screen and then it just sits there
[04:56] <bastid_raZor> Shamoun: in my opinion, 64bit is just as stable as 32bit.
[04:56] <slops> i have to power off the computer like 5-8 times for it to boot normally
[04:56] <Coded1> samc, im using mythbuntu which uses xfce not gnome
[04:56] <samc> slops: that sounds like it's probably hardware...
[04:57] <samc> Coded1: oh right .. yeah asound.conf should do the trick then :)
[04:57] <slops> but didnt do it with 9.10
[04:57] <hufx> Shamoun: I ve been using licud 64 bit with 64 bit flash  with no problems at all
[04:57] <Coded1> samc, will give it a go thanks again
[04:57] <samc> no probs :)
[04:58] <occy> So I just upgraded to 10.04, and I can't seem to be able to figure out how to get my Volume control on the panel :/  (it was there before I upgraded)
[04:58] <samc> Coded1: here's my config file - http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/f04Mkiz1
[04:58] <douglas> IM BACK!! :d
[04:58] <douglas> :D
[04:58] <greezmunkey> Flakeparadigm: I had that issue with a usb headset. I had no alsa, because I removed it, but I located pavucontrol in the software center, pulse audio volume control - played with that a bit and sound was great.
[04:58] <nishanth>  does any one know how to make a live stream video play that uses mms plugin?
[04:58] <douglas> i got my fan to work
[04:58] <douglas> and a new battery
[04:59] <slops> samc, its the smae hardware thats been in the box
[04:59] <slops> nothings changed
[04:59] <slops> only have this prob since loading 10.4
[05:00] <kyppcgeek> how is the new release?
[05:00] <kyppcgeek> I heard there were Grub issues
[05:00] <kyppcgeek> is that fixed?
[05:00] <Si1> im a new ubuntu user, and im using 6.06 and was wondering if anyone would be willing to help me find some files >.>
[05:00] <Flakeparadigm> greezmunkey, Alright, I'll take a look
[05:00] <greezmunkey> Flakeparadigm: It won't hurt to do that :)
[05:01] <bastid_raZor> !eol | Si1 .. follow the guide to upgrade to atleast 8.04
[05:01] <slops> samc, any ideas?
[05:01] <Coded1> samc; thanks not sure what values to use for device and card this is the output from "aplay -L" http://pastebin.com/RvTTW6Ri
[05:03] <Flakeparadigm> greezmunkey, everything is still at 100%
[05:03] <blackstar> maybe i'm explain my self wrong, i ony use root to create the files or folders, for a user with no administration or root rights, under his account, ... now whenever the standard user is trying to delete the files or  folders using the terminal he can't not do it, but if he uses nautilus it allow him to delete the files, maybe someone here can try  and they will see what i mean
[05:04] <Scunizi> Flakeparadigm: try adding "Center" slider to the mixer and push that all the way up.. I had to do that on a previous release for some reason..
[05:04] <Si1> heres the interesting thing. i was in the middle of updating my laptop, since i found an old 6.06 disc and threw it on b/c i needed an os for school. and my laptop over heated and shut down, in the middle of an upgrade. now, when i log on, it lets me log in, but wont show anything (background, bars or anything) and im on the live cd right now. And, if i can, id like to get the couple school papers off and then reinstall, and then update to the

[05:04] <Si1> ive got a usb
[05:04] <greezmunkey> Flakeparadigm: there was an issue, let me look at mine again, brb
[05:04] <Shamoun> bastid_raZor, everyone else, thanks for the answer, sorry i wasn't quite around
[05:04]  * kyppcgeek Anyone going to answer? Is the latest public release now stable?
[05:04] <Shamoun> okay well i guess i will just go with the 32 bit
[05:05] <bastid_raZor> Si1: mount the existing partition with your information on it. copy it somewhere
[05:05] <v1ad> the latest release is stable
[05:05] <kyppcgeek> tx v1ad
[05:05] <v1ad> np
[05:05] <bastid_raZor> Shamoun: 64bit works great for me. been running it since 9.04
[05:06] <Shamoun> bastid_raZor, yea i have used it in the past
[05:06] <hufx> Si1: by any chance do you have just a desktop no panels at all and only a small console window?
[05:06] <Shamoun> which is why i was su surprised, i thought maybe there were less applications available
[05:06] <bastid_raZor> Shamoun: why it would claim 64bit is not for daily use.. i have no idea
[05:06] <Si1> nope. its not showing anything but my mouse icon and an ugly red background
[05:06] <v1ad> yea im using x64 right now
[05:07] <Shamoun> bastid_raZor, a 64 bit linx system can still run 32 bit code right?
[05:07] <v1ad> yes
[05:07] <bastid_raZor> Shamoun: 32bit apps yes
[05:08] <v1ad> some packages won't install because there is a x64  version of it
[05:08] <blackstar> bastid_raZor, I ony use root to create the files or folders, for a user with no administration or root rights, under his account or home folder for the standard users , ... now whenever the standard user is trying to delete the files or  folders using the terminal he can't not do it, but if he uses nautilus it allow him to delete the files, maybe someone here can try  and they will see what i mean
[05:08] <v1ad> keep that in mind
[05:08] <Flakeparadigm> greezmunkey, okay. Scunizi's suggestion didn't work - it was already turned up
[05:08] <bastid_raZor> blackstar: no idea.
[05:08] <blackstar> ok
[05:09] <shreymech> does any one have a DELL 1525 with ubuntu 10.04 with wifi working
[05:09] <v1ad> ifconfig show wlan0 ?
[05:10] <v1ad> shrey if u pm most likely ill get it workin
[05:10] <greezmunkey> Flakeparadigm: what do you get if you run "alsamixer -DHw" in a terminal (minus quotes)?
[05:10] <blackstar> any know where is nautilus default configuration files is located ?
[05:11] <greezmunkey> Flakeparadigm: er alsamixer -Dhw - sorry
[05:11] <Weedy> does lucid ship a working injection driver for intel?
[05:11] <Weedy> 4965
[05:11] <albech> my .gvfs is taking up ~20GB, can I delete it and restart?
[05:12] <dan2> I haven't purchased an ATI graphics card in 7 years
[05:12] <dan2> do the drivers still suck so much that it's worth getting an nvidia card still?
[05:13] <JHAY> okay so i have an error but idk how to fix it...my ubuntu installed fine but never boots...the error is FATAL ERROR:Bad primary partition 2: Partition ends in the final partial cylinder...any ideas?
[05:15] <Loshki> is there any reason to by an ATI card for linux?
[05:15] <phinfinity> hey my system crashes sometimes sometimes mouse doesn't work or wireless quits in most cases i have to hard reset my laptop. How do i view system logs for the crash so i can find out wats going wrong
[05:15] <Flakeparadigm> greezmunkey, I get the alsamixer just like when I run alsamixer
[05:16] <iantlopp> Loshki: mine's working just fine
[05:16] <greezmunkey> Flakeparadigm: I am at a loss man, sorry.
[05:16] <iantlopp> though I've never really pushed it, but I get 60fps in compiz, pretty constantly, and that's just on a laptop
[05:16] <RoDiMuS-X> phinfinity, check dmesg from the command prompt
[05:17] <shreymech>  does any one have a DELL inspiron 1525 with ubuntu 10.04 with wifi working..plzz help me
[05:17] <Flakeparadigm> greezmunkey, it's alright. I'll keep looking
[05:17] <phinfinity> dmesg gives my current bootup log i want the previous one
[05:17] <sonia_> oi
[05:17] <greezmunkey> Flakeparadigm: what sound board are you using?
[05:17] <iantlopp> shreymech: have you tried connecting the dell machine via wired net connection yet, then let it find drivers?
[05:18] <iantlopp> mine had to do that (HP model, admittedly) before it would connect wirelessly.
[05:18] <shreymech> yess i did
[05:18] <shreymech> iantlopp, yes i did
[05:19] <iantlopp> sorry, noob at this... thought that might help
[05:19] <Flakeparadigm> I think I may have finally found something
[05:19] <sonia_> i'm lost
[05:20] <RoDiMuS-X> shreymech, is your wireless network switch turned on?
[05:21] <JHAY> okay guys...somehow the ubuntu install effed up my partitions when it installed dual boot...so im trying to remove it completely and give another go...any idea how?
[05:21] <Flannel> JHAY: Just pop in the CD and go through the installation process again
[05:21] <RoDiMuS-X> JHAY, http://www.techspot.com/vb/topic74042.html
[05:22] <JHAY> right...but it is now trying to install a second ubuntu partition along with my current ubuntu and windows 7
[05:22] <JHAY> that doesnt seem to make much sense
[05:22] <Flannel> JHAY: Oh, just nuke the other ubuntu partition and install in its place
[05:22] <JHAY> ok
[05:23] <shreymech> RoDIMua-x, yess
[05:23] <RoDiMuS-X> yeah thats the easiest thing to do
[05:23] <shreymech> RoDiMuS-X,  yess
[05:23] <JHAY> no idea how to
[05:23] <JHAY> and if i nuke the current partition , won't i have to repair windows?
[05:24] <Flakeparadigm> well no luck. I'll probably be back in an hour or so.
[05:24] <littlebones> no, it should leave the windows partition alone
[05:25] <JHAY> weird because all the forums say to insert a windows cd to be able to do this?
[05:25] <JHAY> boot to the recovery console using cd rom or whatever
[05:25] <littlebones> to have a triple boot or to overwrite the existing ubuntu os?
[05:26] <JHAY> well to use disk manager i have to get into the recovery console right? but im using netbook and have no cd drive
[05:26] <littlebones> hm, well that's a real pain. do you have one you can attach via USB or other port?
[05:26] <littlebones> i'll guess no
[05:26] <JHAY> nope
[05:27] <JHAY> exactly
[05:27] <littlebones> so yeah, i guess you would have to use the windows disk manager
[05:27] <Weedy> does lucid ship a working injection driver for intel?
[05:27] <littlebones> but the problem is, windows doesn't detect ext3 or 4 partitions
[05:27] <JHAY> the problem was basically step by step
[05:27] <JHAY> i installed dual boot
[05:27] <JHAY> everything was super easy went great
[05:27] <JHAY> but then
[05:27] <JHAY> when i tried to boot ubuntu
[05:28] <JHAY> nothing happened except cursor chilling on blank screen
[05:28] <JHAY> it was suggested my grub was messed up
[05:28] <JHAY> so i booted from usb
[05:28] <JHAY> went to terminal
[05:28] <JHAY> and tried cfdisk
[05:28] <JHAY> then got
[05:28] <FloodBot2> JHAY: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[05:28] <JHAY> fatal error: partition extends final cylinder bad partition 2 or whatever
[05:29] <littlebones> beauty, hmmmm
[05:30] <dijikul> ls
[05:30] <dijikul> err
[05:30] <dijikul> lol
[05:30] <chris59> Hi,  I seem to have installed both Python3 and Python3.1 Was this intentional on the part of the package manager? Or did I goof ? Should I remove 3.0 ?
[05:30] <JHAY> yeah i have no idea what to do...
[05:31] <littlebones> chris, as long as it's working i wouldn't worry
[05:31] <littlebones> and jhay, did you install using that windows ubuntu installer thing or do you have a bootable partition on the USB?
[05:31] <JHAY> i installed using usb
[05:32] <littlebones> you can access ubuntu live from it?
[05:32] <threeter> http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/uU0hUr6v
[05:32] <JHAY> dont even know what that is
[05:32] <littlebones> when you create an ubuntu cd or dvd, you can use it to try ubuntu off the disk. meaning it doesn't install anything but you can still access the system
[05:32] <JHAY> oh yeah
[05:33] <littlebones> like, it would give you an option to try ubuntu without changing the system
[05:33] <threeter> trieing to compile Epona
[05:33] <JHAY> yeah i can run the image perfectly
[05:33] <JHAY> off the usb
[05:33] <threeter> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IrcServer
[05:33] <littlebones> beautiful, that means you have access to gParted
[05:33] <littlebones> so you can use gparted (partition editor) to create a new ubuntu partition if you still desire to do that
[05:34] <littlebones> or just clean install overtop of the existing partition
[05:34] <JHAY> yeah
[05:34] <threeter> any help
[05:34] <JHAY> okay is that pretty straightforward or complex instructions?
[05:34] <littlebones> to re-partition or clean install overtop?
[05:34] <JHAY> clean install overtop
[05:34] <littlebones> yeah
[05:34] <littlebones> cause the partitions are already set up
[05:35] <JHAY> is gparted included in ubuntu image or do i need to grab it from somewhere
[05:35] <littlebones> you're just telling the installer to wipe out whatevers there and install overtop
[05:35] <littlebones> it should be included, if not, grab it from the synaptic
[05:35] <littlebones> it's in the default repos
[05:35] <JHAY> well, the partitions are whats messed up though right? so wouldnt i have to re-do them?
[05:35] <samc> Coded1: sorry was afk .. can you do 'aplay -l' as well?
[05:35] <littlebones> yeah you can do that
[05:35] <littlebones> gparted will do a nice job of partitioning
[05:35] <toolbear> hello.  in synaptic package manager, every time i click to do something on a package (un/install, etc...), i have to wait about 20 seconds before the program will begin responding to stimuli again.  has anybody else had this problem?
[05:36] <JHAY> okay so i can go into ubuntu use gparted to partition, and still be able to boot windows without the recovery disk later?
[05:36] <littlebones> you should
[05:36] <littlebones> as long as it's in a seperate partition
[05:36] <JHAY> k...i'll try and let you know in a few mins
[05:36] <JHAY> thnx
[05:36] <littlebones> because GRUB (the screen that lets you choose what OS you want) will override all other bootloaders, and it will automatically detect windows
[05:36] <greezmunkey> toolbear: It's probably checking to make sure it's up to date. you could run wireshark to be sure.
[05:36] <JHAY> okay cool
[05:37] <toolbear> greezmunkey: what's wireshark?
[05:37] <littlebones> if you need help with the partitioning, grab xchat from the repos and i can give you more help if you need it
[05:37] <Moral_> I'm running a CLI only version of ubuntu. I'm in the terminal and I can't scroll up to read some of the errors i'm getting. How can I make it so I can scroll up to read that, note pgup and pgdown don't do anything.
[05:37] <greezmunkey> toolbear: packet sniffer
[05:38] <jenpontan> it's crazy
[05:38] <phlak_user> Moral_: shift+pg up
[05:38] <phlak_user> Moral_: better way is to pipe to less
[05:39] <toolbear> greezmunkey: ah, ok, thanks, i'll look into it
[05:39] <Moral_> phlak_user, thanks. Also yeah.  I'm just reading /var/log/messages. Thanks again!
[05:39] <econdudeawesome> howdy! How does one use wildcard charaters in the commandline?
[05:39] <econdudeawesome> specifically, if I want to range wildcard characters from 0000 to 9999
[05:39] <phlak_user> econdudeawesome: like this --> ls -la foo*
[05:40] <phlak_user> !regexp
[05:40] <econdudeawesome> phlak_user does that work with wget?
[05:40] <econdudeawesome> !regexp
[05:40] <Tac_Home> am I allowed to ask what a good rpg would be?  maybe even one with an online community :)
[05:41] <Tac_Home> or strategy..
[05:41] <phlak_user> econdudeawesome: you will have to look at the wget man page
[05:41] <edbian> Tac_Home, It's really a more #ubuntu-offtopic thing to ask...
[05:41] <econdudeawesome> phlak_user thanks.
[05:42] <christmas11> how do I remove something from a blacklist?
[05:42] <Tac_Home> edbian, gracias
[05:42] <CkhiKuzad> i'm running 9.04, and every time i shut down, rather than shutting off completely, ubuntu turns every hardware thing off, fans, drives, etc, but leaves the computer on with the error [52.(something)] System Halted
[05:45] <mattgyver> CkhiKuzad, can you post the full error message?
[05:46] <CkhiKuzad> mattgyver: its just some cryptic numbers and the words system halted.
[05:46] <mattgyver> CkhiKuzad, do those numbers appear random or is it the same each time?
[05:46] <CkhiKuzad> they appear to be the same
[05:50] <mattgyver> CkhiKuzad, silly questiong but does shutting down from command line (sudo shutdown -h now) and from gnome do the same thing?
[05:51] <Traveler8> just a test
[05:51] <uLinux> hm
[05:51] <CkhiKuzad> yes it does, mattgyver
[05:52] <Christos``> anyone out there taht can help me with an issue?
[05:52] <bazhang> Christos``, ask a question please
[05:53] <mattgyver> CkhiKuzad, not really too sure, maybe check and see if theres a bios update available for your board?
[05:53] <CkhiKuzad> my board is from 2000. and the creators NEVER offered a single update. i cant usb boot.
[05:53] <Avasz> how do i know if mysql, php and httpd are installed or not?
[05:53] <Traveler8> what's the problem?
[05:54] <brianlions> hi guys, i issued command "ssh-keygen -l -f know_hosts", but it seems that all hosts' ip addr are encrypted, is it possible to found out those ip addr? if not, how to disable the encryption of host ip in file `known_hosts`?
[05:54] <Traveler8> which mysql?
[05:54] <mattgyver> CkhiKuzad, that sucks, im not too sure, i looked a bit but unfortunately dont see anything like that but at the same time i dont know the full error message
[05:55] <Christos``> My question is dual booting i installed ubuntu on a seperate harddrive but i had to disconnect my main harddrive to do so but now i bought the cable where i can put two harddrives and i made ubuntu the slave drive but problem is i need it where my main drive dont go right away into the os i want it to give me the option to chose which hd i want
[05:55] <DeathKnight> how do i know if mysql, php and httpd are installed or not?
[05:55] <tm0> Hi all. I need a little bit of help.
[05:56] <brianlions> Avasz, DeathKnight : i think the easiest way is use command "which mysql php httpd apache2"
[05:56] <tm0> I need to update my webkit version, but i don't know how
[05:56] <Traveler8> could anyone tell me how to copy the name? - -
[05:56] <Christos``> anyone got my question?
[05:56] <Christos``> lol
[05:57] <christmas11> does anyone know if installing either mythTV or XBMC affects WIFI?
[05:58] <mattgyver> Christos``, sounds like you just need to configure your grub menu really, are you running 10.04?
[05:58] <Christos``> yeah
[05:58] <christmas11> Yea
[05:58] <shreymech>  does any one have a DELL inspiron 1525 with ubuntu 10.04 with wifi working..plzz help me
[05:58] <Christos``> oh how do i configure my grub menu
[05:59] <mattgyver> Christos``, first of all is there an OS on the other drive, and if so what is it?
[05:59] <Christos``> windows 7
[05:59] <Christos``> thats my main harddrive
[05:59] <Christos``> i mean master
[05:59] <nerex> Hi Everyone. Just have a simple question:  I've googled around for this but cant find anything conclusive. How do I mount ext3 and ext4 partitions in windows 7? I'd had to format my ubuntu partitions to NTFS just to see them in windows. I know there's easy drivers for ext2, but I'd like to keep ext3/4.
[05:59] <Christos``> and ubuntu is my secondary until I learn how to use linux
[06:00] <edbian> nerex, If you formatted your ubuntu partition as ntfs you erased it...
[06:00] <Traveler8> maybe grub4dos do it
[06:00] <mattgyver> Christos``, ill pm you
[06:00] <Christos``> ok
[06:01] <nerex> I didn't. I have it as ext3
[06:01] <nerex> and I have an extended partition that's ext4
[06:01] <Traveler8> just edit the menu.lst..
[06:01] <SirMoo> I haz quick question. - Whats the benefit to running 64 bit over 32 as a server?
[06:01] <edbian> nerex, ok.  It's just that in your previous post you said "I'd had to format my ubuntu partitions to NTFS just to see them in windows
[06:01] <bazhang> no menu.list in grub2
[06:01] <bazhang> !grub2 | Christos``
[06:01] <nerex> ooh, sorry. I meant I'd hate to have to
[06:02] <Traveler8> in grub4dos
[06:02] <Traveler8> it has
[06:02] <tm0> I need to update my webkit version, but i don't know how\
[06:02] <bazhang> Traveler8, we dont recommend that here
[06:02] <tm0> I need to update my webkit version, but i don't know how, any ideas?
[06:02] <edbian> nerex, I think the current solution is to use ext2 drivers that are out there to view / edit ext3 and 4.  Obviously you shouldn't be doing extensive work this way.
[06:03] <Traveler8> oh, i ee
[06:03] <edbian> nerex, There is no ext4 driver.  http://www.diskinternals.com/linux-reader/
[06:03] <nerex> All i really would need is to view / play back media files. That'd be it. No need to write.
[06:03] <nerex> Thanks for the link.
[06:03] <edbian> nerex, No problem
[06:04] <edbian> nerex, Reading is relatively safe compared to writing.
[06:04] <edbian> nerex, Read what it says!  Careful not to delete things you shouldn't!
[06:04] <nerex> Thanks a ton, edbian. I'll look into it. I think I should be able to take it from here~
[06:05] <tm0> Let me rephrase, i am trying to get java working in midori, and i don't know how to update it
[06:05] <edbian> nerex, No problem!
[06:05] <edbian> I love to help people and I love linux.
[06:06] <SirMoo> So I'll ask again since no one replied.... :/
[06:06] <tm0> Can anyone help me? The forums were useless?
[06:07] <SirMoo> Any difference between servers that are 32 or 64bit version?
[06:08] <xangua> tm0: what version of ubuntu are you using'¿
[06:08] <tm0> SirMoo, i think 64 can take more ram
[06:08] <tm0> xangua Ubuntu 9.10
[06:08] <rsouthard> tm() there is no support in midori for java plugin yet.
[06:08] <SirMoo> It ram really the only thing thats a benifit?
[06:08] <xangua> tm0: are you using the midori PPA¿
[06:08] <DjDark> cant get yahoo to connect through pidgin. it did earlier today but now...nothin :(
[06:08] <lonelinsky> 2^64 vs 2^32
[06:08] <tm0> What is PPA xangua?
[06:09] <xangua> !ppa
[06:09] <tm0> Sirmoo, i've never used one so don't take my word explictly. I just know that from desktop.
[06:09] <tm0> Xangua thank you i will try that
[06:09] <xangua> tm0: https://launchpad.net/~midori/+archive/ppa and it recomends also https://launchpad.net/~webkit-team/+archive/ppa
[06:10] <Mahjongg> hey, what was the name of the enduser oriented GNU/Linux distro that Bruce Perens was starting before ubuntu came up
[06:10] <SirMoo> There is not a dedicated server  channel for ubuntu is there ?>_>
[06:10] <bazhang> SirMoo, #ubuntu-server
[06:10] <SirMoo> Thanks. =D
[06:11] <xangua> sudo add-apt-repository ppa:midori/ && add-apt-repository ppa ppa:webkit-team/ppa | tm0, that would be enough and after taht you open the update manager and you will see the updates aviable
 Hi Everyone. Just have a simple question:  I've googled around for t
[06:12] <Doyle> Good evening fellas. Q: For programs that refuse to start due to permissions issues (ie. conf files are under var instead of home), is there any serious problems with using chown to resolve the issue? 'sudo chown foo /var/lib/res_bar' for example.
[06:14] <RoDiMuS-X> anyone know of a program that will stream shoutcast?
[06:14] <rsouthard> RoDiMuS-X try streamtuner
[06:14] <tm0> xangua i get this ever Error: need a repository as argument
[06:15] <rsouthard> you can record with it also. i think the package name to rip is streamripper or streamjuice.
[06:15] <RoDiMuS-X> Cool thanks rsouthard
[06:15] <rsouthard> yw.
[06:17] <tm0> xangua i get this ever Error: need a repository as argument
[06:18] <xangua> tm0: sorry, the first is ppa:midori/ppa , not ppa:midori/ :S
[06:19] <rocket16> Like Gnote replaces Tomboy and is faster (because #mono is not included, and it is a complete C++ rewrite), is there any similar replacement to FSpot? (Almost similar, but faster and in C++)
[06:19] <mattgyver> Doyle, kinda 50/50 in my book, sometimes its okay to do that, some time its just worth while to make sure the user is part of the right group (excluding root)
[06:19] <Error404NotFound> how can i apply same permissions set e.g. user, group and permissions of one directory to another? both directory are identical.
[06:19] <cardamon> Has Gnote replaced Tomboy?  Because I think someone forgot to tell Tomboy.
[06:20] <tm0> xangua i get the same error
[06:20] <xangua> rocket16: shotwall says omg!ubuntu! blog :)
[06:20] <rocket16> Error404NotFound: Select both of them using Ctrl+Click, and right click them to select properties, and specify the permissions,
[06:20] <ubuntu_> someone to know good enough bash scripting to help me??
[06:20] <mattgyver> ubuntu_, what are you trying to accomplish?
[06:20] <Error404NotFound> rocket16, hmmm, and if i have to do same using commandline?
[06:20] <xangua> tm0: whad do you get with: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:midori/ppa  ¿¿
[06:21] <rocket16> xangua: Lol, Thanks, :) I tried already, but it is not so fast, :(
[06:21] <cardamon> Error404NotFound: chmod
[06:21] <Error404NotFound> rocket16, btw, permissions inside directory A are not alike, at places they are 755, 644 and etc...
[06:21] <rsouthard> Error404NotFound look into chmod and umask.
[06:21] <Doyle> mattgyver: Thanks mattgyver. For resources that are unrelated to system or which may contain sensitive info it should be OK.
[06:21] <Error404NotFound> cardamon, i know, but thats not what i am looking for, though thats the basis, chown as well ofocurse...
[06:21] <rocket16> Error404NotFound: Use chmod +x foldername to make all files inside them executable, and other chmod variants using chmod +option foldername
[06:21] <xangua> rocket16: well it uses less memory says the post
[06:22] <rocket16> xangua: Yes, thanks, :) I will try it once again,
[06:22] <Error404NotFound> rocket16, naaa, i know these commands, just looking an easy way like using a for loop to check and apply same permissions on files...
[06:22] <xuwuhuai> hello

[06:22] <mattgyver> Doyle, yeah.  If it were me I would make the change and a note of it.  then i would look into seeing if there is an alternative, sometimes you find better solutions.
[06:22] <cardamon> For copying permissions...dunno.  But it's pretty easy to look at a directory, know what permissions it has (because it tells you) and chmod another directory with the same.
[06:23] <crocket> How did ubuntu people find out udev assigns ethernet adapter names?
[06:23] <crocket> It is really a geek thing
[06:23] <xuwuhuai> some one can speak chinese ?
[06:23] <Doyle> mattgyver: good point. thanks
[06:23] <bazhang> xuwuhuai, in #ubuntu-cn
[06:23] <rocket16> !cn | xuwuhuai
[06:23] <crocket> I didn't even know udev until I googled "linux change name adapter"
[06:24] <meatbun> where is the md5usm for ubuntu 10?
[06:24] <crocket> meatbun, It's built into live CD.
[06:24] <xuwuhuai> i need help
[06:24] <xangua> tm0: that only mean the gpg server is down, you can add the key some other day
[06:24] <rocket16> Error404NotFound: I think this might be of some help: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=162474
[06:24] <xuwuhuai> who can help me ?
[06:24] <crocket> meatbun, you can boot liveCD and do the checksum there.
[06:24] <Doyle> xuwuhuai:  type /join #ubuntu-cn
[06:24] <rocket16> xuwuhuai: Sure, what is the problem? We all will look at it, and will try to help (not sure if I can, still I will try)
[06:24] <tm0> xangua So it won't work today? (Sorry i'm a bit slow, just came out of surgery)
[06:25] <xuwuhuai> but i don't know how to do.
[06:25] <xangua> tm0: sudp add-apt-repository ppa:webkit-team/ppa | and you will have everything needed to update midori and webkit
[06:25] <Doyle> xuwuhuai: you just typed "but i don't know how to do." type "/join #ubuntu-cn"
[06:25] <zus> can anyone please help with video downloader helper? now that ive installed it  it wont let me open files on default  like ktorrent for instance i have to download it first then click the torrent file before  right from tpb it went stright to ktorrent
[06:25] <rocket16> xuwuhuai: Use this command: /join #ubuntu-cn (and press enter) to join Chinese Channel. Otherwise, you can specify your problem here, :)
[06:26] <tm0> Xangua same error. I will try this a different day. My head seems to be too far out to understand completely lool
[06:26] <xuwuhuai> 3q rocket16
[06:26] <xangua> tm0: yes, it will work; you will only get a message that there is no GPG key. you use the GPG key to say the system that it is a safe repository
[06:26] <rocket16> xuwuhuai: You're welcome, :)
[06:26] <xangua> zus: is that a firefox addon¿
[06:26] <tm0> xangua how do i do that?
[06:26] <zus> xangua,  yes
[06:27] <mattgyver> Error404NotFound, you could probably do a ls -l of the file in question, and grep the permissions and script it to chmod the file

[06:27] <xuwuhuai> i have join ubnutu-cn now !

[06:27] <xangua> zus: use 'flashgot' if you want to integrate firefox with any download manager
[06:27] <Error404NotFound> mattgyver, thats what i am doing, wanted to know if there was someone who did it already
[06:28] <IdleOne> xuwuhuai: /join #ubuntu-cn
[06:28] <xuwuhuai> but no one  in there .
[06:28] <mattgyver> Error404NotFound, oh okay, no but i might actually, sounds like a good idea lol
[06:28] <xangua> tm0: mmm it should work, what about: sudo apt-get update  ¿¿
[06:28] <zus> xangua,  wouldnt that just dl everything on a page?
[06:29] <rocket16> xuwuhuai: But I can see that 77 people are there, I just joined (Although I am Indian). Did you type the code correctly? Simply enter: /join #ubuntu-cn
[06:29] <IdleOne> xuwuhuai: you typed it wrong
[06:29] <rocket16> xuwuhuai: Also, the character # is needed. Type: /join #ubuntu-cn
[06:30] <tm0> xangua it throws errors with the webkit team ppa
[06:30] <xuwuhuai> i well try again
[06:30] <xuwuhuai> thank you very much
[06:31] <sain> hello
[06:31] <rocket16> xuwuhuai: I sent you an invitation from that channel. Please accept that, and you'll enter into the channel.
[06:32] <xuwuhuai> ok
[06:32] <ruien> Hello all :) I have one hard drive, sda, with sda1 and then sda2 holding logical partitions {sda5, sda6, sda7, and sda8}. My xubuntu installation is on sda1 as it is my main OS. I have a ghost image from a previous solely-windows-xp install that I have imaged onto sda7. Grub2 finds the install, but it does not boot. Does this method have any hope?
[06:32] <rocket16> xuwuhuai: Or, which client are you using? Xchat?
[06:32] <rocket16> Hello sain, :)
[06:33] <sain> Can any one help. how do you add "open folder in terminal" option to right click menu?
[06:33] <crdlb> sain: install the nautilus-open-terminal package
[06:33] <xuwuhuai> it's ok !
[06:33] <sain> crdlb: thanks
[06:33] <rocket16> xuwuhuai: Great, :) Ok,
[06:34] <xuwuhuai> rocket16: thank you !
[06:34] <rocket16> xuwuhuai: You are most welcome, :)
[06:34] <xuwuhuai> :)
[06:34] <costre> !grub | ruien
[06:34] <rocket16> sain: For that, enter this command in terminal: sudo apt-get install nautilus-open-terminal
[06:34] <xuwuhuai> by the way ,can you read chinese ?
[06:34] <White-Horse> Hi guys does anyone know if there are any bugs in ubuntu 10.04 x32 for some reason my icons on the top left never stay and i am always having to readd them also everytime i min. firefox it goes away but stays open if anyone has any ideas ?
[06:36] <rocket16> White-Horse: That is possibly a Panel problem. Reset the panels to fix that up, :)
[06:36] <rocket16> !reset-panels | White-Horse
[06:36] <rocket16> !resetpanels | White-Horse
[06:36] <christmas11> can anyone tell me why my wifi would suddenly refuse to connect?
[06:37] <White-Horse> thank you rocket16 i will try that
[06:37] <White-Horse> but what about min. firefox to tray issue ?
[06:37] <White-Horse> everytime i min. firefox to the tray it goes away but stays open
[06:37] <rocket16> christmas11: Is your Wireless Connection allowed? Check by right clicking the nm-applet, and see if Enable Wireless is checked or not.
[06:38] <Loshki> ruien: my recollection is that XP is fussy about being moved to a different partition, but I don't recall the details. You could try asking on #windows...
[06:38] <sain> rocket16: i installed nautilus -open-terminal. what do i do next?
[06:38] <rocket16> White-Horse: I think, Firefox is not being closed properly. You can kill the process to end it,
[06:38] <christmas11> Rocket16: yes, its enabled, I was working 2 hours ago and now nothing
[06:39] <christmas11> *it
[06:39] <xuwuhuai> i am come back ,because , the  ubnutu-cn people no very hot .
[06:39] <rocket16> sain: Just right-click anywhere inside a folder, now select "Open Terminal Here"
[06:39] <ruien> Loshki: thanks. That's what it seems like, and wasn't sure if grub had any way around that. The grub docs don't seem to address this situation.
[06:40] <White-Horse> ok thank you rocket16
[06:40] <tm0> xangua don't worry i'll figure it out later
[06:40] <rocket16> White-Horse: My pleasure, my friend, :)
[06:40] <Doyle> christmas11: Many possible reasons. Wireless router lost power or needs a power cycle. Maybe the router admin (if its not you) changed the password. If its a laptop the wireless switch may have been toggled by mistake. If you plugged in a LAN cable it may have switched to LAN automatically depending on configurations.
[06:40] <sain> rocket16: "open in terminal" is not among the right click menu options
[06:40] <ruien> xuwuhai: what is your question? you didn't ask a question in ubuntu-cn.
[06:40] <rocket16> xuwuhuai: No problem. You can ask any problem here, :)
[06:41] <Doyle> christmas11: if you've recently installed any appliances they may interfear with the signal. Is there a deep freeze between you and the wireless router?
[06:41] <christmas11> Doyle: I'm using the same router for this connection
[06:41] <sain> is there a way to edit the right click menu to add it?
[06:41] <rocket16> sain: Well, go to the Desktop once, and in any blank area, right-click, now is there anything in the menu like "Open in Terminal"?
[06:41] <christmas11> I have been configuring Mythtv on the other computer
[06:41] <mattgyver> sain, you can make nautilus scripts
[06:41] <rocket16> sain: Sure, you can use Nautilus-Scripts. An easier way is to use Ubuntu-Tweaks tool, which can do it via GUI.
[06:42] <Doyle> christmas11: From the wireless panel, do you see the network as being available with good reception?
[06:42] <Loshki> ruien: well, assuming grub chainloads to the windows partition correctly, it's basically a windows issue from that point onwards. Do you know if it even gets that far?
[06:42] <christmas11> Doyle: Its a hidden network
[06:42] <rocket16> sain: Does the menu-entry come now?
[06:42] <ruien> Loshki: yes, it gets that far. It gets into some pre-windows Dos routine and hangs forever.
[06:43] <ruien> if there wasn't a known solution, i'll just put the image back on its original partition, and then reinstall ubuntu on top of it, as in that case the dual-boot *will* work
[06:43] <Loshki> ruien: sounds like the grub portion worked then. You need windows booting help at this point I think...
[06:44] <christmas11> Is mythtv know to cause problems with connections?
[06:44] <sain> rocket16: i'm still trying to figure out how to find it in Ubuntu tweaks
[06:44] <mattgyver> ruien, is this an OEM image, i don think it will work on a different motherboard
[06:44] <Doyle> christmas11: Do you see other networks? Have you power cycled that computer?
[06:44] <christmas11> Yes, I see other networks. No, I'll try the power cycle now
[06:45] <Loshki> ruien: another less drastic thing you could try is to save the ubuntu mbr, then try doing a fixmbr from a windows recovery. If that works, you can reinstall the ubuntu mbr and try again, if that makes sense...
[06:45] <ruien> mattgyver: no, this was a fresh install on this system, just on another partition.
[06:45] <mattgyver> ruien, cool just a thought :)
[06:45] <ruien> Loshki: that's a really cool idea, i'll try it
[06:45] <ruien> yeah, thanks guys
[06:46] <Doyle> christmas11: ok. At first glance the system seems fine hardware wise, the power cycle may work.
[06:46] <tdhz77> Dual booting OSX and Ubuntu, trying to read write to both partitions, but I'm only able to read and write to the Public folder on the OSX partition. Any help on editing my fstab, or permissions would be greatly appreciated.
[06:47] <ruien> tdhz77: if you type "mount", what is the OSX partition mounted as, and what are the associated mount options?
[06:47] <tdhz77> ruien: /dev/sda3 hfsplus
[06:47] <rocket16> sain: under personal group, there us an entry "manage scripts". Enter there to edit nautilus scripts.
[06:48] <brianlions> xuwuhuai, how do you whether ubuntu-cn people are hot or not? hot has nothing to do with your questions :-)
[06:48] <EzeQL> hi all
[06:48] <EzeQL> how do i uninstall a program?
[06:48] <ruien> tdhz77: rw right?
[06:48] <Doyle> tdhz77: I think after you type '/etc/fstab' you just have to enter the details. Found a good ref. http://www.tuxation.com/creating-home-partition-mac-linux.html
[06:48] <tdhz77> doyle: hi doyle :)
[06:48] <rocket16> EzeQL: use sudo apt-get remove packagename
[06:48] <Doyle> yo man
[06:48] <Loshki> brianlions: support first, comedy second, if you don't mind...
[06:49] <tdhz77> ruien: when I put rw, I get a mounting error on startup
[06:49] <ruien> okay, so that's the problem. Hmm. What are you using to mount? mount -t <?> ?
[06:49] <Loshki> tdhz77: can you tell us the exact text of the error message?
[06:50] <rocket16> EzeQL: or, simply use Software Centre, or synaptic
[06:50] <EzeQL> rocket16 , there is no gui here :)
[06:50] <christmas11> Doyle: doesn't look like the power cycle worked
[06:50] <EzeQL> i am connected throught consolo
[06:50] <EzeQL> a *console
[06:51] <EzeQL> how can i get info about a certain package wuth apt-get
[06:51] <JHAY> hello
[06:51] <littlebones> jhay, get 'er all fixed up?
[06:51] <Flannel> EzeQL: apt-cache show packagename
[06:51] <JHAY> sort of
[06:51] <JHAY> i got it installed
[06:51] <EzeQL> thanks
[06:51] <JHAY> dual boot
[06:51] <tdhz77> ruien: im just clicking places >> OSX and it mounts ok, but when I edit FSTAB to make it RW, i  reboot and then it says, "mount error Press S to skip or M to manually edit" I can't edit the fstab by pressing M, so I must skip.
[06:51] <JHAY> and it boots fine
[06:51] <Flannel> EzeQL: What sort of info, by the way?
[06:51] <FloodBot2> JHAY: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[06:51] <JHAY> but
[06:51] <Doyle> christmas11: crimminy. jus a second
[06:51] <littlebones> not a problem
[06:51] <littlebones> go on..
[06:51] <Loshki> JHAY: stop hitting enter, or the Floobot will get you...
[06:52] <sain> rocket16: i got to Manage scripts, but there is no option to open folder in terminal
[06:52] <JHAY> i plugged in my ethernet cord...then the network status animation started...then it stopped (while i was still plugged in) and said no connection
[06:52] <ruien> tdhz77: this will be easier to debug if you do the mounting manually, I think, by su'ing to root and trying to mount the partition with the 'mount' command; this will generate better error output
[06:52] <littlebones> did you take it out and stick it back in? worst to worst set up the connection manually, or install wicd as your network manager
[06:52] <crdlb> sain: you need to restart nautilus to make nautilus-open-terminal work
[06:52] <littlebones> on 9.04 i used wicd and it was awesome
[06:53] <JHAY> and i am once again clueless...i think ubuntu is gonna make it as hard as possible for me...nothing will work plug and play
[06:53] <rocket16> sain: Yes, it is difficult to set such one. Is the Nautilus-open-terminal script installed?
[06:53] <EzeQL> Flannel , i have a very old ffmpeg bin
[06:53] <EzeQL> i want to update it
[06:53] <raevol> hey all trying to do some cusomization of xscreensaver, can anyone tell me where i can see the fonts available on my machine? the directory?
[06:53] <rocket16> sain: I believe, the Package is not installed properly, :(
[06:53] <EzeQL> which is the easier way?
[06:53] <JHAY> wicd is that an included tool?
[06:53] <rocket16> EzeQL: Use sudo apt-get update
[06:53] <Flannel> EzeQL: It was a bin file? or it's installed via package management?
[06:53] <littlebones> it's in the repos, it removes network manager but does all the same thing
[06:53] <tdhz77> ruien: ok, /dev/sda3 / hfsplus defaults 0 1, I believe, I screwed up by putting / and not /home :) let me reboot and try again. Thanks for tipping me in the right direction.
[06:53] <rocket16> EzeQL: I mean, sudo apt-get update packagename
[06:53] <EzeQL> via package manament
[06:54] <sain> rocket16. i'll try to restart machine and reinstall nautilus
[06:54] <tdhz77> doyle: thanks man
[06:54] <Flannel> EzeQL: What version of Ubuntu are you on?
[06:54] <ruien> sure, good luck
[06:54] <littlebones> my laptop wouldn't connect to the school wireless network on 9.04 with network manager, switched to wicd and it was all good
[06:54] <rocket16> sain: Sure,
[06:54] <Doyle> christmas11: from the terminal type 'lshw -C network' do you see the wirless card? Does it show broadcasting: yes as well as a driver and IP near the bottom?
[06:54] <crdlb> sain: just killall nautilus
[06:54] <crdlb> sain: or log out
[06:54] <JHAY> yeah well i know my wireless wont work because it needs proprietary drivers
[06:54] <Doyle> tdhz77: did that work?
[06:54] <JHAY> but
[06:54] <EzeQL> flannel, how do i check that ? :)
[06:54] <JHAY> cant install without internet lol
[06:54] <EzeQL> feelking kinda noob
[06:54] <Flannel> EzeQL: `lsb_release -a` will tell you
[06:55] <rocket16> sain: Just go to a terminal, and type: killall -user username (username is your username there) and it will serve as same like Restart
[06:55] <Loshki> EzeQL: it's ok to be noob here...
[06:55] <EzeQL> 9.10
[06:55] <littlebones> set up the connection manually then
[06:55] <mayank> hey guys, can anyone help me?, its been 4 days i installed ubuntu 9.10 but tried some things butt still no sound...
[06:55] <rocket16> EzeQL: Or, go to System-About Ubuntu to see the VersioN.
[06:55] <EzeQL> :)
[06:55] <EzeQL> rocket16 , there is no gui installed
[06:56] <JHAY> tried...when i plug in its like it sees something, but then goes blank
[06:56] <EzeQL> Flannel 9.10
[06:56] <JHAY> like i cant even get to my router
[06:56] <sain> rocket16: thanks. it works like a champ.
[06:56] <littlebones> wow, haven't heard of that before
[06:56] <JHAY> so ill try wicd...is that in the synaptics whatever
[06:56] <christmas11> Doyle: it returns 3 *-network, one ethernet controller, one network controller (product wireless LAN controller) and one wireless interface
[06:56] <littlebones> sure is
[06:56] <EzeQL> rocket16 apt-get update ffmpeg doesnt work
[06:56] <rocket16> mayank: Well, better to install 10.04 LTS. Also, click the Sound Preferences, :) and see if everything is set or not
[06:56] <JHAY> aight
[06:56] <Flannel> EzeQL: Alright.  What version is currently installed?  You can find out via `apt-cache policy ffmpeg`
[06:56] <rocket16> sain: You are welcome, friend, :)
[06:57] <JHAY> hopefully ill be chatting with you in a few in ubuntu
[06:57] <littlebones> hopefully
[06:57] <Loshki> mayank: sound is a notorious problem area in many linuxes. I had good luck with this: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/fix-for-all-pulseaudio-related-issues.html. You can skip over the alsa gui stuff if it doesn't apply to your release...
[06:57] <rocket16> EzeQL: Well, you can update your whole System too, that will increase performance, :) Although offtopic.
[06:57] <EzeQL> Installed: 4:0.5+svn20090706-2ubuntu2.1   Candidate: 4:0.5+svn20090706-2ubuntu2.2
[06:57] <Doyle> christmas11: We're interested in the wireless interface
[06:57] <JHAY> i really want to start playing with this...trying hard not to get frustrated...got the flu and pneumonia on tuesday and have been bed ridden looking for a project (this was supposed to be an easy one)
[06:58] <EzeQL> rocket16 , sysadmin should do that
[06:58] <Flannel> EzeQL: Then you're all up-to-date, what made you think it was old and outdated?
[06:58] <mayank> rocket16: what are u saying man, i don;t want to install ubuntu again, i will upgrade it later, and all set to auto detect, and i have also change it but no luck,
[06:58] <EzeQL> well svn20090706 does not look uptodate
[06:58] <EzeQL> maybe the bin located on apt-get is very old?
[06:58] <christmas11> Doyle: it is broadcasting, doesn't say anything about IP or drive
[06:59] <christmas11> r
[06:59] <Loshki> EzeQL: Flannel: isn't there a medibuntu version of ffmpeg, and wouldn't it be better?
[07:00] <Doyle> christmas11: if it doesn't indicate a driver, it may have wandered off somewhere...
[07:00] <Flannel> EzeQL: That package was actually updated a little over a month ago, so it's up to date
[07:00] <Doyle> christmas11: though, it sees networks so that shouldn't be the problem.
[07:01] <EzeQL> thanks Flannel
[07:01] <Doyle> christmas11: have you tried retyping the connection information?
[07:01] <Loshki> Doyle: you live in a much more interesting universe than me, where drivers wander off, and deep freezes interfere with wireless..
[07:01] <Doyle> Loshki: I did dell support once upon a time... these things do happen to the average user
[07:01] <christmas11> Doyle: under Network controller (wireless LAN controller) it does have a driver (driver=b43-pcibridge latency=32) but not under *-network wireless interface
[07:02] <Doyle> christmas11: AH, ok, I read your first report of controllers too quickly and only saw one wireless one.
[07:04] <Doyle> christmas11: not sure if this one'll work, but you can try running 'sudo dhclient' from the terminal. I've never used it under ubuntu.
[07:04] <DjDark> cant get pidgin to connect to yahoo..need help
[07:04] <Doyle> christmas11: it forces the adapters to query for an address server and lease.
[07:04] <arunkumar413> cant connect to internet using mobile broadbad
[07:05] <phildarnowsky> Hi all, I have a question I've been unable to Google: let's say I had an executable at /usr/local/bin/foo, but recently installed the foo package so there's now an executable at /usr/bin/foo.  I rm'ed /usr/local/bin/foo, but if I just type "foo" (not the absolute path), bash seems to still think I mean /usr/local/bin/foo, and tells me "not found." How do I get it to forget about /usr/local/bin/foo?
[07:05] <DjDark> anyone got yim server list?
[07:05] <Loshki> DjDark: I'm not a pidgin user myself, but have you read the faq at http://d.pidgin.im/wiki/FAQ ?
[07:05] <Mac> Connect Windows Network Printer on Ubuntu
[07:05] <mikolynx> hey guys..what's the smallest zip program....
[07:05] <mikolynx> I need to make a 2 gig file smallllll.
[07:06] <Mac> Connect Windows Network Printer on Ubuntu
[07:06] <Loshki> phildarnowsky: what happens when you type 'which foo' ?
[07:06] <Doyle> christmas11: Ideally it should return a bunch of information stating the various objects as listening, or some other information. If you get unknown hardware for any of em there'll be a problem.
[07:06] <phildarnowsky> loshki: I get "/usr/local/bin/foo"
[07:06] <phildarnowsky> loshki: i.e. the old, incorrect answer
[07:06] <ruien> mikolynx: what type of file? 2gb's of /dev/zero's by any chance?
[07:07] <Loshki> phildarnowsky: what about if you restart bash i.e. open a new terminal. Same result?
[07:07] <phildarnowsky> loshki: yep.  also if I log out, also if I reboot
[07:07] <arunkumar413> cant connect to internet using mobile broadbad option in network manager
[07:07] <phildarnowsky> loshki: I feel like a Windows user. :(
[07:07] <mikolynx> it's a windows 7 install...I dl'd for a friend...I have to load it onto a usb drive..
[07:07] <DjDark> yessir loshki. and the thing worked fine earlier. up until about an hour ago
[07:07] <mikolynx> I need to find a zip prog that will make it small.
[07:07] <Mac> configure ZTE USB modem on ubuntu
[07:07] <Loshki> phildarnowsky: :-). And what does ls -l /usr/local/bin/foo say?
[07:08] <christmas11> Doyle: nothing saying unknown hardware, sorry
[07:08] <DjDark> yahoo wont even connect through wine
[07:09] <christmas11> Doyle: it goes through about 15 instances of DHCPDISCOVER on wlan0/eth0 etc, then says no DHCPOFFERS received
[07:09] <arunkumar413> Hi Doyle
[07:09] <mikolynx> cna I get 7zip for ubuntu?
[07:09] <Doyle> christmas11: ok, the hardware's working fine then
[07:09] <Loshki> DjDark: well, like I say, I'm not a user. Try #pidgin maybe?
[07:09] <christmas11> Doyle: excellent
[07:09] <phildarnowsky> loshki: well, well, well.  it was there, but I could've sworn I rm'ed it.
[07:09] <Doyle> christmas11: gotta be something, a configuration, or a gremlin
[07:10] <Doyle> arunkumar413: hi there
[07:10] <JHAY> back
[07:10] <christmas11> Doyle: Gremlin?
[07:10] <Loshki> phildarnowsky: at least you had the guts to admit it, instead of just dropping off :-)
[07:10] <phildarnowsky> loshki: maybe I should give up on the computing for the night and get some sleep. :)
[07:10] <JHAY> i loaded synaptics package manager but could not find wicd
[07:10] <arunkumar413> Doyle: help me to tweak my network manager
[07:10] <phildarnowsky> loshki: I've been doing this for long enough that I have nothing left to prove. :)
[07:10] <phildarnowsky> loshki: thanks!
[07:10] <littlebones> really? i was certain it's in the repos
[07:10] <Loshki> phildarnowsky: glad to help...
[07:11] <JHAY> idk even know what in the repos means lol
[07:11] <littlebones> rfe
[07:11] <Doyle> christmas11: just to confirm you've already tripple checked your ssid, pass and auth types?
[07:11] <Loshki> !manual | JHAY maybe you should read this first then
[07:11] <littlebones> *repositories are what the synaptic looks in
[07:11] <Doyle> arunkumar413: what kind of tweak?
[07:11] <JHAY> thanks ubotto but to surf the web i have to have internet
[07:11] <christmas11> Doyle: 5, 6 and 7 times. It was working about 3 hours ago and now nothing
[07:11] <mikolynx> is p7zip a command line thing?
[07:12] <JHAY> and when i plug my ehternet cord in nothing happens
[07:12] <mikolynx> I don't see a gui fo rit.
[07:12] <arunkumar413> Doyle:i'm unable to connect to internet using my huawei EC325 CDMA 1x modem
[07:12] <littlebones> wicd shows up in my synaptic, so i'm a bit puzzled
[07:12] <Loshki> JHAY: what's on the *other* end of the ethernet cable?
[07:12] <JHAY> i have 10.04 netbook
[07:12] <Doyle> arunkumar413: AH, best to talk to your service provider then
[07:12] <JHAY> and on the other end i tried
[07:12] <JHAY> a) router
[07:12] <arunkumar413> Doyle :it works on 9.04
[07:13] <arunkumar413> Doyle: it troubling me on 10.4
[07:13] <Loshki> JHAY: does the router have a blinky light so you can see if packets are coming in/going out of the connection?
[07:13] <JHAY> b) directly plugged into cable modem. both times it acted as if it were connecting...then stopped and said "no internet connection"
[07:13] <Doyle> christmas11: You may have a jammed session on the router, (reaching) have you power cycled the router by removing the power adapter for 10 seconds?
[07:14] <christmas11> Nope, but I'll give it a try. This'll disconnect me
[07:14] <JHAY> LOSHKI: it has that light but it stays solid
[07:14] <Doyle> christmas11: ok, I'll be here when you get back
[07:14] <Loshki> JHAY: solid? That's not right. Bad cable?
[07:14] <arunkumar413> Doyle:its detected my modem, but when i click to connect it shows "network disconnected-youu are offline now"
[07:15] <JHAY> nope.. cable works fine it is plugged into xbox or pc
[07:15] <arunkumar413> is there a separate channel for network manager issues
[07:15] <littlebones> you could always try the unplug modem/re-plug
[07:15] <littlebones> seen that solve problems in windows many times
[07:15] <JHAY> solid light simply means router detects cable plugged in on both ends
[07:15] <webmaven> Ubuntu Lucid Lynx Is Like The Best Shit I Have Seen Around In A While Now :)
[07:15] <JHAY> linksys routers only blink with activity and LITTLEBONES: i tried :(
[07:16] <Loshki> JHAY: got any other connections to the router? Are they on solid too? Mine all blink like crazy...
[07:16] <arooni-mobile___> is there a way to put a monitor to sleep from the command line?
[07:16] <JHAY> yeah
[07:16] <JHAY> other connections are fine...the blink like crazy
[07:17] <Slart> arooni-mobile___: yes.. I remember playing around with that some time ago.. there's a command.. let me see if I can find it again
[07:17] <JHAY> so this is what im thinking a) i have to have the driver installed or ubuntu would have no idea i plugged in...b)its not a router problem because i plugged into both the router and the modem driectly
[07:17] <arooni-mobile___> Slart, thanks!
[07:18] <Loshki> JHAY: ok, open a terminal and type 'ifconfig -a'. Is there an eth0 entry?
[07:19] <JHAY> LOSHKI: yes, there is
[07:19] <Doyle> arunkumar413: All I've got for you is this addy, hopefully something here will help. I've never used that type of modem before. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DialupModemHowto/Huawei/E220
[07:19] <christmas11> Doyle: No luck
[07:20] <Doyle> christmas11: You're the admin for this router?
[07:20] <Slart> arooni-mobile___: try running this from a command line..    sleep 1; xset dpms force off
[07:20] <Loshki> JHAY: does it have an inet addr? Does it say: UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST. What about the errors: count?
[07:20] <christmas11> Yes
[07:20] <Slart> arooni-mobile___: more info here http://www.shallowsky.com/linux/x-screen-blanking.html
[07:21] <JHAY> LOSHKI: no inet address...yes on UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST...no errors
[07:21] <Doyle> christmas11: Make the ssid visable, then connect directly. If it works, you can hide it again after.
[07:21] <rocket16> Since Chrome is nice, but a bit slow, so I decided to make hacks to make it faster. (Firefox doesn't suite my needs, and Browsing speed is faster in Chrome). So, I read that if we disable the Malware and Phishing Protection in Chrome, it will consume less RAM. As we are in Ubuntu, there is no problem related to Virus, :) So, no worries about Malwares. But Phishing can be still a problem. So, is disabling Malware and Phishing Protection insecure in Ubuntu
[07:21] <nope> I seem to remember using Huawei E220 on ubuntu 9.10. Dont think I had to do any config at all outside of networkmanager
[07:21] <Doyle> christmas11: by connect directly I mean point and click on it from the wireless list.
[07:21] <Loshki> JHAY: that's a good sign. What IP address *should* it have?
[07:21] <JHAY> 192.168.2.xxx
[07:22] <Doyle> Ohh nice JHAY
[07:22] <arooni-mobile___> Slart, how do i turn it back on?
[07:22] <Slart> arooni-mobile___: just moving the mouse should work
[07:22] <Loshki> JHAY: ok, pick a 192.168.2.XXX address that you know isn't being used by anyone else. Tell me what you've picked.
[07:23] <Slart> arooni-mobile___: at least it did for me
[07:23] <JHAY> 192.168.2.108
[07:23] <arooni-mobile___> Slart, ok i'm gonna try now ;p
[07:24] <ubuntu_> shell scripting someone to help me??
[07:24] <DjDark> anyone know foxyproxy? just poped up on my screen...i thought i was safe from popups :))
[07:24] <DjDark> lol
[07:24] <Slart> ubuntu_: just ask your question
[07:24] <arooni-mobile___> Slart, i see: "xset:  unable to open display " after tryint to run that
[07:24] <Loshki> JHAY: ok, type: sudo ifconfig eth0 192.168.2.108 up
[07:24] <jMyles> !root
[07:24] <Slart> arooni-mobile___: you're not running X ? you're on a server?
[07:25] <ubuntu_> i try to make a script and i need someone to help me to edit my code
[07:25] <arooni-mobile___> Slart, no i'm running ubuntu 10.04 desktop edition on that box
[07:25] <JHAY> LOSHKI:done
[07:25] <rocket16> ubuntu_: You can post the code in Pastebin or Codepad, and the people here will view the code and will try to help you.
[07:26] <Loshki> JHAY: Do 'ifconfig -a' again. Is the ip address there now?
[07:26] <Slart> arooni-mobile___: hmm.. well.. on that webpage they warned that not all setups reacted to this.. not really sure if it's configurable or not
[07:26] <JHAY> LOSHKI: yes
[07:26] <arooni-mobile___> Slart, ah ok; sad.  that would make my life easier
[07:26] <Loshki> JHAY: what is the ip address of the router?
[07:26] <ubuntu_> my code is here i try to make hangman game my problem is when calculate lifes
[07:26] <Slart> arooni-mobile___: nothing happened at all? not even a little blink?
[07:26] <ubuntu_> http://pastebin.com/0j3MjNyN
[07:27] <TheMusicGuy> I clean-installed 10.04 recently, and now I have no sound control icon in the panel, and I can't seem to find it anywhere.
[07:27] <JHAY> 192.168.2.1
[07:27] <ubuntu_> if someone make a reply to this link and solve this problem
[07:27] <Loshki> JHAY: ok, try to ping it. ping 192.168.2.1
[07:27] <arooni-mobile___> Slart, my computer laughed at me.  and did nothing
[07:27] <TheMusicGuy> I have to get to sound properties through the system menu, or else use keyboard shortcuts to change the volume.
[07:27] <JHAY> LOSHKI: destination host unreachable
[07:27] <Slart> arooni-mobile___: oh.. you've got one of those systems =)
[07:27] <k1rb> TheMusicGuy, I am having the same issue, but mine just disappeared about a minute ago.
[07:28] <BodyThief> howdy folks
[07:28] <TheMusicGuy> It doesn't show up in guest logins either...
[07:28] <TheMusicGuy> however, sound still works just fine.
[07:29] <Loshki> JHAY: type 'route'. I bet the routing table is empty...
[07:29] <nope> TheMusicGuy: right click on panel, choose add to panel, choose indicator applet, click add, your done
[07:29] <BodyThief> i hate to be a pop-in question asker.  but i'm kinda stressing.  wonder if i can get a bit of assistance from someone.
[07:29] <ruien> ubuntu_: what is the problem..?
[07:29] <Slart> arooni-mobile___: you can try another variant of the same command..     xset dpms force standby
[07:29] <JHAY> LOSHKI: how on earth do i get it to stop pinging
[07:29] <Loshki> JHAY: ctrl-C
[07:29] <ruien> JHAY: Ctrl-C
[07:29] <TheMusicGuy> nope: ...I don't get it. What's going on here?
[07:29] <arooni-mobile___> Slart, sadly same thing happened "xset:  unable to open display ""
[07:29] <BodyThief> i guess i'll do the question toss and see anyone wants to help..  dual boot, XP & unbuntu , just upgraded from unbuntu 9.x to 10.04.  unbuntu boots fine, but now i cannot access XP.  grub shows an option for it, but when it trys to start, just shows a cursor in upper left.
[07:29] <hufx> ping ping pong
[07:30] <Slart> BodyThief: this is a pop-in questions kind of channel, don't feel bad about it.. there's no queue system.. just ask away
[07:30] <BodyThief> thanks Slart
[07:30] <JHAY> LOSHKI: i typed in route and got a table
[07:30] <ubuntu_> i can't calculate right the lifes maybe i made fault in loops
[07:30] <nope> TheMusicGuy: you wanted to get your volume "applet" back on the panel?
[07:30] <christmas11> Doyle: okay, so I set it to broadcast ssid and it finds it and the icon changes for a second (as if to go from searching to acquiring address) then back to disconnected. I'm running 10.04 btw
[07:30] <ruien> BodyTheif: i have the _exact_ same problem. How did you get the windows install there in the first place?
[07:30] <Loshki> JHAY: is there an line beginning with 'default'?
[07:30] <FisherPrice70> I'm having difficulties with my kde open compositing.... it was working yesterday but now it won't work
[07:31] <TheMusicGuy> nope: yes, and apparently its been moved to an alternate indicator applet...or something?
[07:31] <FisherPrice70> glxinfo | grep -i opengl
[07:31] <FisherPrice70> OpenGL vendor string: NVIDIA Corporation
[07:31] <FisherPrice70> OpenGL renderer string: GeForce 9400 GT/PCI/SSE2
[07:31] <nope> TheMusicGuy: yes, so if you do the steps I said, you will get it back
[07:31] <Doyle> christmas11: hmmmmm... so, gets kicked back. Lets see if we can find a log entry.
[07:31] <FisherPrice70> OpenGL version string: 3.2.0 NVIDIA 195.36.15
[07:31] <Slart> arooni-mobile___: you're running this from a regular gnome-terminal? not from a TTY?
[07:31] <BodyThief> .......i had XP installed originally.  installed Unb-9.x from disc into empty part.
[07:31] <FisherPrice70> OpenGL shading language version string: 1.50 NVIDIA via Cg compiler

[07:31] <FisherPrice70> does anyone have any ideas?
[07:31] <FisherPrice70> I can get XRender to composit
[07:31] <TheMusicGuy> nope: I mean, don't get me wrong. Your suggestion worked, thank you. But I don't know why some things are on the "default" indicator now and some are on this...other one.
[07:31] <arooni-mobile___> Slart, i'm ssh'ing into the box;
[07:32] <FisherPrice70> but not kwin... I've asked on the kubuntu irc
[07:32] <arooni-mobile___> Slart, probably should have mentioned that ;p
[07:32] <nope> I have no idea, probably gnome that has changed the previous default applets
[07:32] <Slart> arooni-mobile___: aahhh.. got a fix for you.. try this       DISPLAY=:0.0 xset dpms force off
[07:32] <arooni-mobile___> Slart, wow you win an amazing prize!
[07:32] <nope> kinda stupid, but there you go :)
[07:32] <ruien> BodyTheif: did the upgrade take you from grub v.1 to grub v.2 ?
[07:32] <arooni-mobile___> i can now turn/off my desktop from my laptop!
[07:32] <TheMusicGuy> nope: ...k.
[07:33] <arooni-mobile___> Slart, desktop display!  woot!

[07:33] <Slart> arooni-mobile___: ah.. this should simplify things, yes =)
[07:33] <ruien> BodyThief: run the command "grub", and see if bash tells you it's not installed but could be
[07:34] <Doyle> christmas11: the last three lines or so should show the results of your last connection attempt

[07:39] <JHAY> LOSHKI: it reset everything
[07:39] <well_laid_lawn> Loshki: there's prob no auto eth0 line in JHAY 's interface file
[07:39] <JHAY> LOSHKI: i have no ipaddress
[07:39] <Doyle> hopefully ipv6 will take off someday

[07:58] <tiger2wander> hi there
[07:58] <mayank> theadmin: ok, but can u help me wid sound
[07:59] <theadmin> mayank: I'm not much into driver problems, sorry
[07:59] <mayank> theadmin: ok
[07:59] <theadmin> Hm, this wiki page is outdated :P "See also the Ubuntu  Developer Summit for Maverick, which will take place from May 10th  to 14th, 2010 at the Dolce La Hulpe Hotel and Resort in Brussels,  Belgium."
[07:59] <tiger2wander> Is there any info about a little version of Ubuntu like for MID run with AMD processors?
[07:59] <Merwin> hi
[07:59] <jabato> hi
[08:00] <Allanea> hey
[08:00] <Allanea> guys
[08:00] <Allanea> I need help
[08:00] <theadmin> jabato, Merwin, Allanea, hello there, ask your questions, we all will be glad to help if we can
[08:00] <well_laid_lawn> !minimal | tiger2wander this runs on most cpus
[08:00] <Allanea> I need a way to install a new web browser WITHOUT going into Firefox
[08:00] <Merwin> I'm using Ubuntu 10.04, and I would like to disable the 'splashscreen', I have to see boot messages
[08:00] <theadmin> Allanea: apt-get?
[08:00] <crocket> Why is linux said to be so secure from viruses without antivirus?
[08:00] <Allanea> theadmin: I know what apt-get is
[08:01] <theadmin> crocket: Because there are only 3-5 viruses for Linux in existance :P
[08:01] <Allanea> but I've been using Linux for all of 3 days
[08:01] <theadmin> Allanea: Oh, I see. Which browser do you want?
[08:01] <Merwin> crocket, viruses are developped for windows. A windows viruses (99.9% of the viruses) won't work on linux.
[08:01] <Allanea> theadmin: something that eats less RAM
[08:01] <theadmin> Allanea: Hm... Google Chrome should cut it
[08:01] <Allanea> because bvasically going into Firefox just makes the system hang up
[08:01] <crocket> theadmin : If I get infected with one of those without antivirus, wouldn't it be dangerous?
[08:01] <Allanea> what about Konqui? I know nothing about any of these
[08:01] <Allanea> but anything would work
[08:01] <theadmin> crocket: Welp, they all are already patched against right in kernel
[08:01] <jabato> Allanea: I use Chromium (is Chrome for linux) in Ubuntu. It works fine.
[08:02] <Allanea> just tell me what to type into apt-get
[08:02] <Merwin> I'm using Ubuntu 10.04, and I would like to disable the 'splashscreen', I have to see boot messages to answer questions asked by init.d scripts !
[08:02] <tiger2wander> well_laid_lawn, I known it, but it is not thing I decide to ask
[08:02] <crocket> theadmin : do you mean the low market share of linux made it possible to be virus-free?
[08:02] <Allanea> exactly, crocket
[08:02] <crocket> It's sad
[08:02] <Allanea> you understand, jabato
[08:02] <mayank> i can't hear any sound in my ubuntu 9.04, song is playing but no sound, what to do?
[08:03] <well_laid_lawn> tiger2wander: you were a bit vague with that quest - care to rephrase it?
[08:03] <Allanea> for me Terminal is a black and white wastleand with a cursor
[08:03] <theadmin> Allanea: Sorry, Google Chrome seems to require a browser to install it :/ Can't get a direct link... okay... Chromium should do though
[08:03] <Allanea> yes well I don't HAVE a working Browser
[08:03] <Allanea> that's exactly my problem, sorry :(
[08:03] <mohamed> hi
[08:03] <mohamed> i need help
[08:04] <theadmin> Allanea: sudo apt-get install chromium-browser
[08:04] <theadmin> Allanea: Run that in terminal
[08:04] <tiger2wander> well_laid_lawn, an OS like MID will be good for laptop in Multimedia or Web browsing mode, so u will not need to boot full your OS when u only need to use web browser,im, email...
[08:04] <well_laid_lawn> mayank: in terminal type   cat /dev/urandom > /dev/dsp   - be careful it is loud and ctrl+c to kill it - anything?
[08:04] <mohamed> i'm learning assembly and i need an assembler
[08:04] <well_laid_lawn> tiger2wander: don't know mid at all - never heard of it sorry
[08:05] <mohamed> hellooooooooooooooooooo
[08:06] <theadmin> Allanea: Linux terminal is powerful, you'll get to know that in a while :D Of course, you could go to System -> Admininstration -> Synaptic, search for it there and install this way, or find it in Ubuntu Software Center
[08:06] <jabato> if you type linux antivirus into a google search, the first result is an article from linux.com entitled "note to linux newcomers: no antivirus needed"
[08:06] <grendal_prime> gooood daaamn it...this is the 3rd virtualbox vm i have had croak in two days!!!! is anyone else have to deal with this????
[08:06] <mohamed> i'm learning assembly and i need an assembler
[08:06] <well_laid_lawn> grendal_prime: the is #vbox
[08:06] <theadmin> mohamed: Do not repeat the question too often
[08:06] <mohamed> how can i get one
[08:06] <mohamed> sorry sir
[08:06] <theadmin> mohamed: No one knows => No answer
[08:06] <tiger2wander> well_laid_lawn, it is described here: http://www.ubuntu.com/products/mobile
[08:06] <rzx237> !nasm
[08:06] <mohamed> i'm sorry
[08:06] <well_laid_lawn> !info nasm
[08:07] <mayank> well_laid_lawn: its says no such directory
[08:07] <Ginbuntu> I have problem installing gnoCHM on Lucid. gnochm: Depends: python-gtkhtml2 but it is not installable
[08:07] <tiger2wander> well_laid_lawn, it was removed :(
[08:07] <mohamed> how can i download nasm ?
[08:08] <theadmin> mohamed: sudo apt-get install nasm
[08:08] <mohamed> thanks
[08:08] <tiger2wander> well_laid_lawn, it is moblin, and located here: http://moblin.org/ for now
[08:08] <well_laid_lawn> mayank: prob means the sound card wasn't found during boot - in terminal   lspci | grep AUDIO   to check
[08:09] <grendal_prime> and man  o man this aptitude segfaulting bug is such a hard one up the ..you know what.
[08:09] <tiger2wander> well_laid_lawn, I've just found the channel for moblin #moblin, anyway, thanks
[08:09] <well_laid_lawn> k
[08:09] <mayank> well_laid_lawn: ok, i check
[08:09] <theadmin> grendal_prime: Aptitude segfaulting? Craziness
[08:09] <rzx237> mohamed: apt-cache search assembler may be interesting for you
[08:09] <theadmin> Allanea: So did it work?
[08:10] <grendal_prime> tiger2wander, moblin blows unless you are a 12 year old boy with nothign to do but type to blogs all damn day
[08:10] <grendal_prime> do your slefl a favor ..ditch that crap an install nebook remix
[08:10] <simplexio> grendal_prime: soounds like you have hardware problems
[08:10] <grendal_prime> ?  same machine i have been using for 2 years.
[08:11] <well_laid_lawn> nics do die
[08:11] <simplexio> grendal_prime: well . at somepoin it was build to fail
[08:11] <grendal_prime> all this started wheni insllled 10.04
[08:11] <tiger2wander> grendal_prime, I have interest to make it Dual boot with Official Ubuntu for some purposes ;)
[08:12] <grendal_prime> screw this im going to bed
[08:12] <theadmin> bleh. How to remove an app compiled from source if it installed itself in /usr/local? :/
[08:13] <well_laid_lawn> !checkinstall | theadmin
[08:13] <simplexio> grendal_prime: testing tesing. run bonnie++, some memoeryteser, get cpu on high loads. if some of those fails you probably have hw problems.. it isnt that uncommon. there maybe just too much dust in fans etc..
[08:13] <theadmin> well_laid_lawn: Well, I'll be damned, too late for that now I guess
[08:14] <ruien> theadmin: does your 'make' implement any 'uninstall' target?
[08:14] <well_laid_lawn> theadmin: your at the point of remoing files one by one or installing over it
[08:14] <theadmin> well_laid_lawn: Installing over. Good idea. Now to just grab the same version tarball :D
[08:14] <rzx237> do we can select language while login from gdm if using ubuntu installed from cd? bcause I can't do it on ubuntu netinstall
[08:15] <well_laid_lawn> heh
[08:15] <BruceChang> Hello, It's my understand the LTS will be supported for 5 years. Can anyone teach me about the years that the Ubuntu non-LTS OS will be supported?
[08:15] <marios> can anyone help me with an issue i have with samba server?
[08:15] <pa1> The LTS support is for 3 years.
[08:15] <theadmin> BruceChang: It's usually 2 years I suppose
[08:15] <well_laid_lawn> marios: you need to tell the issue mate :]
[08:15] <simplexio> BruceChang: i thinks its 2 years
[08:16] <BruceChang> pa1: Thanks
[08:16] <well_laid_lawn> BruceChang: 5yrs on the server 3yrs on the desktop
[08:16] <pa1> Well i guess that means, we will be having a complete new kernal update in the next version. so 3 years it is lolz
[08:16] <BruceChang> simplexio: Thank you vry much for your confirmation.
[08:16] <pa1> yep. three years on the desktop :)

[08:20] <r2j> is there any internal chat server which can run in ubuntu and windows also
[08:20] <TheMusicGuy> I'm trying to get LMMS to work with Jack, so I installed the RT kernel and started LMMS, but Jack said something about not being able to find enough open channels or something, then LMMS got stuck, and now it just freezes when it starts and there's no output. Also, I have no sound anymore.
[08:20] <ThePassingShadow> Don't know how to configure grub
[08:20] <ThePassingShadow> Can someone help out ?
[08:21] <well_laid_lawn> mayank: there are posts on the forums for fixing that iirc

[08:21] <r2j> any one there can help me with chat server

[08:24] <well_laid_lawn> Gabriel: in lshw here it lists the model - serial # not name tho
[08:25] <Gabriel> well_laid_lawn, is there a way to see the name?

[08:26] <csaba> in a simple 1 layered image, I want to select something and move it... how to do that?
[08:26] <DraZoro> lshw-gui Gabriel
[08:26] <csaba> if I use the Move tool, it moves the whole layer
[08:26] <csaba> in gimp
[08:26] <well_laid_lawn> Gabriel: a gui would just interrogate lshw afaik - so maybe not...
[08:26] <Gabriel> well_laid_lawn, thanks
[08:26] <theadmin> csaba: Select it first, I suppose
[08:26] <csaba> i did
[08:26] <csaba> now what?

[08:29] <ikonia> then it didn't run with out errors
[08:29] <csaba> in gimp, how to select one part of an image and move it 5 cm to the left?
[08:29] <ikonia> csaba: try in #gimp
[08:29] <csaba> I did try
[08:29] <kaioken> ikonia: but there was just a library not found  error
[08:29] <kaioken> and I removed it
[08:30] <ikonia> kaioken: so whats the question ?
[08:30] <theadmin> Okay, the checkinstall thing rocks :D
[08:30] <kaioken> when I gave 'make' comamnd
[08:30] <kaioken> then there was error
[08:31] <r2j>    rzx237 : how to configure ejabberd
[08:31] <ElTimo> anyone?
[08:32] <CaptainTrek> ElTimo: just wait and see if you get a response
[08:32] <ElTimo> well i just got one :P
[08:32] <schlaftier> ElTimo: pkill notify-osd
[08:32] <vishpoison> hey i need some help with ubuntu 10.04
[08:32] <ElTimo> schlaftier: didn't work
[08:33] <ikonia> vishpoison: then ask your question
[08:33] <rzx237> r2j: you need to edit /etc/ejabberd/ejabberd.cfg
[08:33] <vishpoison> i chmoded my /usr folder.. and now i can't access as root using the sudo command
[08:33] <schlaftier> ElTimo: how would you tell? Works for me
[08:33] <kaioken> ikonia:http://paste.ubuntu.com/440739/
[08:34] <kaioken> see the error I got
[08:34] <theadmin> How can I make checkinstall just build the package, not install it?
[08:34] <ikonia> kaioken: don't try to compile it, install kchmviewer from the repos
[08:34] <ElTimo> schlaftier: well, for one there wasn't a process running called notify-osd, and two when i sent myself an instant message i got the old style notification bubbles
[08:35] <kaioken> ikonia:I want to try compiling it .I have experience of installing it through repo
[08:35] <lyhana8> hi, how do I create .deb from source ? Is there software to do that ?
[08:35] <theadmin> lyhana8: checkinstall
[08:35] <ikonia> no
[08:36] <ikonia> kaioken: then compile it
[08:36] <ikonia> lyhana8: there is a documented process on the ubuntu wiki
[08:36] <well_laid_lawn> !checkinstall | lyhana8
[08:36] <schlaftier> ElTimo: you asked how to restart notify-osd. If that process is not running, do you have any other notification system?
[08:36] <kaioken> ikonia:whats the comamnd for that
[08:37] <kaioken> ikonia:I ahve used ccmake followed by make
[08:37] <ikonia> kaioken: the command for what ?
[08:37] <kaioken> compiling
[08:37] <ikonia> kaioken: yes, so you need to fix the error
[08:37] <lyhana8> is this if i want to submit the package to the official repo ? theadmin: ikonia well_laid_lawn
[08:37] <ElTimo> schlaftier: not that i started, just plain old notification-daemon was running but i killed it
[08:37] <well_laid_lawn> lyhana8: it will build a deb package
[08:37] <Merwin> I would liek to execute a script during the boot, when the splash is shown, how can I do that?
[08:38] <ikonia> lyhana8: the process is, checkinstall should not be used for that task
[08:38] <kaioken> ikonia:but how can I fix it thats my question.which dependency need to be installed
[08:38] <ikonia> kaioken: you need to research it - that's part of the learning, if you can't figure it out, use the version from the repo
[08:39] <lyhana8> ikonia: so how do I do then ? I'm looking to create package for 2 project one from python/source the other is in PHP
[08:39] <heatxsink> hi need help setting my nofile limit in /etc/security/limits.conf

[08:40] <vishpoison> how to get into the recovery mode with ubuntu 10.04 ?
[08:40] <ikonia> vishpoison: it's on the grub menu at boot time
[08:40] <kaioken> ikonia:I tried googling but in vain.Can u suggest any thing that may be causing the problem
[08:40] <vishpoison> ikonia : the grub menu won't show up
[08:41] <ikonia> kaioken: I'd suggest one of the QT libraries as it's a graphical component
[08:41] <well_laid_lawn> vishpoison: hold down the right shift key during boot
[08:41] <Angel-SL> hi; I installed Ubuntu 10.04 and am now trying to get colinux to boot it (on windows)
[08:41] <vishpoison> ikonia : any way i can access it?
[08:41] <ikonia> Angel-SL: that's not an ubuntu issue
[08:41] <ikonia> vishpoison: see well_laid_lawn's advice
[08:42] <phlak_user> !info ubuntu-tweak
[08:42] <vishpoison> yup.. trying that
[08:42] <Merwin> I would like to execute a script during the boot, when the splash is shown, how can I do that? It seems that scripts places in init.d are not loaded
[08:42] <theadmin> Angel-SL: COLinux is not like that, it's a Linux that runs inside windows, it does not boot real installs
[08:42] <ikonia> !packing | lyhana8
[08:42] <phlak_user> Merwin: /etc/rc.local
[08:42] <ikonia> !packaging | lyhana8
[08:42] <Angel-SL> theadmin: it does; i'd link you but I don't want to start anything
[08:42] <vishpoison> yup.. it worked..thanks :) :)
[08:43] <Merwin> phlak_user, it is executed during the splash? I will use plymouth the show message
[08:43] <theadmin> Angel-SL: Well, I just based my answer on what I saw on andLinux page (A ubuntu distro made to work inside windows, it says it's based on COLinux)
[08:44] <ikonia> theadmin: either way, none of this is anything to do with ubuntu
[08:44] <theadmin> ikonia: True.
[08:44] <phlak_user> Merwin: not sure about the splash tho
[08:44] <vikas_> hi
[08:44] <vikas_> a
[08:44] <vikas_> all
[08:44] <theadmin> ikonia: Well, actually dude wants to run Ubuntu with CoLinux so it has something to do with it
[08:45] <ikonia> theadmin: no - it doesn't
[08:45] <Shorer1> ïðèâåò
[08:45] <theadmin> ikonia: How come?
[08:45] <ikonia> theadmin: co-linux is not something we support
[08:45] <bazhang> !ru | Shorer1
[08:45] <theadmin> ikonia: Well, I see, I'm not the type to mess with the ops so I'll stop it
[08:45] <theadmin> bazhang: That is NOT russian, I can tell for sure
[08:46] <well_laid_lawn> I was thinking that
[08:46] <phlak_user> Merwin: just found out that plymouth gets killed in rc.local so maybe you can do that. --> http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Plymouth
[08:46] <well_laid_lawn> but is there a link for arabic?
[08:46] <Shorer1> !ru íåò òàì íè êîãî :(\
[08:46] <phlak_user> !arabic
[08:46] <well_laid_lawn> well it wasn't that then
[08:47] <well_laid_lawn> !en | Shorer1
[08:47] <theadmin> Shorer1: Unfortunately, you use a client with non-UTF8 encoding so all we receive are question marks. Please try XChat, Pidgin, irssi or any other Unicode client.
[08:48] <well_laid_lawn> theadmin: I get letters from him - is it your client?
[08:48] <well_laid_lawn> they are wierd tho
[08:48] <vikas_> my login window preference is different
[08:49] <Lantizia> Hey is it possible for a CD drive to show up as /dev/sda or sdb etc... or will it always be /dev/scd0 or scd1 etc
[08:49] <theadmin> well_laid_lawn: Possible, could you copy what you received?
[08:49] <tntc> Lantizia: I've seen /dev/sr0
[08:49] <theadmin> Lantizia: They always should be scdX
[08:49] <phlak_user> Merwin: scratch that... plymouth is now controlled by upstart in lucid hence you could call your script within the plymouth startup
[08:49] <Slart> Lantizia: I'm not sure what happens if you have a sata cd/dvd
[08:49] <Lantizia> tntc, true for USB
[08:49] <theadmin> Lantizia: Or srX
[08:49] <vikas_> i want install login window preference
[08:49] <Lantizia> So possibilities are hd* sr* scd*
[08:49] <Merwin> phlak_user, how can I do that?
[08:49] <Lantizia> but not sd*
[08:49] <tntc> Lantizia: My CD Drive is SATA, I'm pretty sure, and it's showing up as sr0...
[08:50] <well_laid_lawn> theadmin: Shorer1> ïðèâåò
[08:50] <phlak_user> Merwin: not sure; look into /etc/init.d; you will see startup and shutdown entries for plymouth
[08:50] <oxymoron> Does anyone use Truecrypt in here on *buntu?
[08:50] <theadmin> well_laid_lawn: Still encoding problems visible
[08:50] <theadmin> oxymoron: Why yes, I do
[08:50] <phlak_user> !upstart| Merwin
[08:50] <Slart> Lantizia: system, administration, login screen doesn't work for you?
[08:50] <vikas_> how can i install windows preference
[08:50] <Lantizia> Slart, wrong person
[08:51] <Slart> Lantizia: ooops, sorry
[08:51] <well_laid_lawn> theadmin: it must be your client or a lack of locales installed maybe
[08:51] <Slart> vikas_: system, administration, login screen doesn't work for you?
[08:51] <oxymoron> theadmin: I wonder if its possible to encrypt the whole drive or partitions without data loss if its already exists files on them?
[08:51] <Gabriel> well_laid_lawn, thanks a lot m8. cya later
[08:51] <well_laid_lawn> Gabriel: bye
[08:51] <vikas_> Slart, no
[08:51] <theadmin> well_laid_lawn: This doesn't look like any language to me anyway :P
[08:51] <theadmin> oxymoron: Only on Windows Vista/7 so far, sorry
[08:51] <oxymoron> theadmin: I have search a lot on Google and trying to find useful info, but nothing yet.
[08:51] <well_laid_lawn> theadmin: it is weird looking :]
[08:51] <oxymoron> theadmin: Do you know if it will be supported later on?
[08:52] <Lantizia> Slart, theadmin, tntc: So in a guide I'm safe putting....  hd* (letter for IDE drive), sr* (number for USB drive) or scd* (number for SATA drive)
[08:52] <oxymoron> theadmin: And on Vista/7, you mena only OS or FAT/NTFS?
[08:52] <ikonia> Lantizia: all disks are seen as sata now
[08:52] <ikonia> (or scsi to be exact)
[08:52] <oxymoron> theadmin: Then I wonder, is it possible to encrypt a external drive?
[08:52] <Lantizia> ikonia, even IDE ones?
[08:52] <ikonia> Lantizia: yes
[08:52] <Lantizia> ikonia, even IDE hard disks?
[08:52] <theadmin> oxymoron: I mean that you can only encrypt partitions/drives without losing info on Vista/7
[08:53] <theadmin> oxymoron: Why yes, I have a encrypted external HD
[08:53] <Slart> Lantizia: not sure about the hd* thing anymore.. they did something to that sub system a couple of years ago
[08:53] <_wasabi> hello
[08:53] <oxymoron> theadmin: So it would be possible create Truecrypt partitions in Vista/7 and then go back to ubuntu and mount them?
[08:53] <oxymoron> theadmin: Alright, and then should you use key files or just password?
[08:54] <theadmin> oxymoron: Yes, that'd be about right, but they by no chance can be ext2/3/4... and I preffer using just password
[08:54] <oxymoron> theadmin: Seems scary using keyfiles if you loose them :D
[08:54] <_wasabi> i'm having a problem connecting to aim from empathy and pidgin. with empathy i get a "error - no network connection" and with pidgin it says it can't connect to the oscar server
[08:54] <_wasabi> i think this has something to do with a proxy settings
[08:54] <_wasabi> since gtalk works fine on both
[08:54] <_wasabi> has anyone else experienced this?
[08:54] <theadmin> oxymoron: Then again, you can forget password to :D I'm just not paranoid enough to use keyfiles
[08:54] <oxymoron> theadmin: Alright, my external drive is NTFS, but then its empty so no prob this time.
[08:54] <phlak_user> !info encfs
[08:55] <oxymoron> theadmin: Is it possible to save password or so on a iso-file and burn it?
[08:55] <oxymoron> theadmin: I mean save both keyfiles and pass.
[08:55] <vikas_> how to install login window preference
[08:55] <theadmin> oxymoron: uhm... I dunno. You can burn a disc with keyfiles and a text file containing the password for sure
[08:56] <Docteh> oxymoron: you'd burn a cd for less than a megabyte in data?
[08:56] <oxymoron> theadmin: Alright, seems that is the most secure way. I think I try on my external 1 TB drive then, want to know how good Truecrypt is even that I dont really need it.
[08:56] <theadmin> oxymoron: By the way, when you format a device with truecrypt it might be a good idea to use "No filesystem" and then when mounting do "DO NOT MOUNT", and then format /dev/mapper/truecryptX to filesystem you want manually using mkfs
[08:56] <oxymoron> Docteh: I was thinking of providing a LOT of keyfiles and fill a cd
[08:56] <Shamoun> hey guys
[08:57] <vikas_> HELP
[08:57] <ikonia> vikas_: ask a question
[08:57] <phlak_user> !repeat | vikas_
[08:57] <rzx237> vikas_: do you mean System > Administration > Login Screen ?
[08:57] <theadmin> ikonia: He did ask and he was answered already, but he still is asking
[08:57] <pynchon> yes hello
[08:57] <phlak_user> rzx237: in Lucid, that doesnt let you change the themes as in earlier distros
[08:57] <vikas_> ya
[08:57] <oxymoron> theadmin: What does "No filesystem" mean, does it mean I just got ecnrypt without formatting and then format it myself? :S
[08:58] <theadmin> oxymoron: Quite so.
[08:58] <oxymoron> theadmin: Is it possible to format into ext4?
[08:58] <{g}> Hey People! When I connected a notebook with the net via bluetooth and a nokia handy, I installed the "bluez-gnome" package. Is that still necessary in Ubuntu 10?
[08:58] <theadmin> oxymoron: Rather advanced. The first rule of Linux: If you don't know what it is, you don't need it
[08:58] <pynchon> LOL
[08:58] <pynchon> lrn2op
[08:59] <phlak_user> vikas_: the only way is to use ubuntu-tweak like this --> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1490784
[08:59] <oxymoron> theadmin: Alright, I guess I skip that then :P QUite sad they adept Truecrypt mostly for Windows :(
[08:59] <rzx237> phlak_user: so maybe we can install another display manager
[08:59] <vikas_> i wanna have login window preference not login screen rzx237 ikonia
[08:59] <theadmin> oxymoron: Well, you can, in truecrypt first encrypt the device with no filesystem, then mount it and when mouning choose do not mount, and then: mkfs.ext4 /dev/mapper/truecrypt1
[08:59] <ikonia> vikas_: rzx237 ?
[09:00] <phlak_user> vikas_: you mean change the type of session at login?
[09:00] <christmas1> How do I get the internet to connect with autologin?
[09:00] <pynchon> yes hello
[09:00] <pynchon> hello friends
[09:00] <bazhang> pynchon, hi
[09:00] <oxymoron> theadmin: Well, it seems unlogic on a external drive anyway, NTFS is the most compatible one on both Linux and Windows
[09:00] <pynchon> brutal kline
[09:00] <phlak_user> !hi | pynchon
[09:00] <Gabriel> is there a way to back up all my installed packages for later use, lets say, after formatting my HD for quick install?
[09:00] <vikas_> phlak_user, i wanna change login box
[09:00] <phlak_user> vikas_: see my earlier reply
[09:00] <theadmin> oxymoron: That is also true. Altough Linux truecrypt does not format to NTFS either, so you'll have to mess the same way
[09:01] <Night_Elf`food> Gabriel: dpkg --get-selections > /home/user/package-list.txt
[09:01] <phlak_user> Gabriel: though you could create a backup of /var/apt/cache I dont know if that would help on a fresh installation
[09:01] <oxymoron> theadmin: Bah, to bad. Maybe I wait a little for the new GUI and more Linux support.
[09:01] <vikas_> phlak_user, i have ubuntu trick but it cant change login box just bk screen
[09:01] <flasherror> chromium is giving me
[09:01] <Night_Elf`food> Gabriel: that will create a list, which you can then feed to the system after the reinstall. So you will reinstall all packages you had
[09:01] <oxymoron> theadmin: I thought Truecrypt was the ultimate choice already, but I guess not :(
[09:02] <theadmin> oxymoron: Oh it is!
[09:02] <theadmin> oxymoron: You just have to learn it :D
[09:02] <Gabriel> Night_Elf`food, great
[09:02] <phlak_user> Night_Elf`food: thats a neat idea!
[09:02] <oxymoron> theadmin: Btw, what do you htink if police take your harddrives and you say ONE of your pass and they only see hidden ones, will they be tricked? :D
[09:02] <flasherror>  /usr/lib/flashplugin-installer/libflashplayer.so
[09:02] <Gabriel> Night_Elf`food, let's say I installed a new system, how do i ivoke it?
[09:02] <Gabriel> Night_Elf`food, let's say I installed a new system, how do i invoke it?
[09:02] <EthanZ6174> grub2 能改字体么？比如改成 monaco 什么的，中文不在乎。
[09:03] <theadmin> ubottu: cn | EthanZ6174
[09:03] <phlak_user> !jp | EthanZ6174
[09:03] <Night_Elf`food> Gabriel: phlak_user: it's good. To feed it back to the system you use   dpkg --set-selections
[09:03] <flasherror> so i guess it is flash's fault that firefox and chrome crash
[09:03] <oxymoron> theadmin: It is, but not able to encrypt Linux ext drives without data loss, that sucks.
[09:03] <flasherror> any help at all
[09:03] <flasherror> im tired of this :p
[09:03] <EthanZ6174> can grub2 change fonts? like monaco or something else
[09:03] <happyaron> phlak_user: it's not japanese
[09:04] <Gabriel> Night_Elf`food, I get : bash: /home/user/package-list.txt: No such file or directory
[09:04] <Shamoun> i just upgraded my 9.10 to 10.04 and when i boot up now grub says "starting up" and then the screen goes blank and the monitor says "frequency out of range"
[09:04] <Night_Elf`food> Gabriel: you do:   dpkg --set-selections < /home/user/package-list.txt
[09:04] <Shamoun> any ideas?
[09:04] <Night_Elf`food> Gabriel: well, that .txt file is the one created with --get-selections
[09:04] <happyaron> EthanZ6174: you may want to check grub wiki and try to generate your own fonts
[09:05] <oxymoron> theadmin: ?
[09:05] <theadmin> oxymoron: Hm?
[09:05] <flasherror> im sorry to pry and whine
[09:05] <Night_Elf`food> Gabriel: and, you have to be root to do all these. Or, add "sudo"  in front of those commands above, if you invoke them as a normal user
[09:05] <Gabriel> Night_Elf`food, ok
[09:05] <oxymoron> "[10:02] <oxymoron> theadmin: Btw, what do you htink if police take your harddrives and you say ONE of your pass and they only see hidden ones, will they be tricked? :D"
[09:05] <flasherror> but can anyone help
[09:05] <EthanZ6174> happyaron, hihi, meet you here is kinda mixed feeling...
[09:05] <theadmin> oxymoron: Maybe, that depends on how... tricky the files there look :P
[09:05] <happyaron> EthanZ6174: :)
[09:06] <mokrzu> hello, what "vga= " parameter should i use in Grub menu.lst for 1360x768 resolution ?
[09:06] <theadmin> mokrzu: menu.lst is deprecated.
[09:07] <vikas_> phlak_user, ikonia rzx237 >i have this http://www.picpaste.com/Screenshot_4.png but i want this http://www.picpaste.com/snapshot2-279x360.png
[09:07] <oxymoron> theadmin: Because before I got INNOCENT invaded in my home by police because I matched criterias of a school massacre boy ... THen they took my whole computer and everything and asked me for passwords. IF (Hopefully not ever again) it happens again I will be ready and trick them so they cannot do anything, show how incompetent they are.
[09:07] <ikonia> vikas_: you can't do that in 10.04 any more
[09:07] <ikonia> !offtopic | oxymoron
[09:07] <mokrzu> ok, so it's not important ?
[09:08] <vikas_> ikonia there is no other way to modify login theme
[09:08] <ikonia> vikas_: no
[09:08] <oxymoron> theadmin: I guess hidden volume is the thing with some random files.
[09:08] <oxymoron> theadmin: Its not possible to see size of drive, right?
[09:09] <Night_Elf`food> Gabriel: after those, all you do is:     sudo apt-get dselect-upgrade
[09:09] <vikas_> there must be some way by modifying .conf script
[09:09] <rzx237> vikas_: use old gdm or gdm-legacy from hardy heron, intall it from deb manually :P
[09:09] <Gabriel> Night_Elf`food, Great, thanks
[09:09] <ikonia> no
[09:09] <ikonia> rzx237: do not recommend that
[09:09] <rzx237> sorry
[09:09] <Night_Elf`food> Gabriel: no problem
[09:10] <vikas_> rzx237, i am new to linux plz can u tell where can i get that
[09:10] <theadmin> oxymoron: Yes
[09:10] <rzx237> I'm search the same answer as vikas_
[09:10] <ikonia> vikas_: you can't
[09:10] <ikonia> rzx237: at the moment, gdm can not be edited
[09:11] <vikas_> ikonia, can i remove the new gdm and install ond gdm
[09:11] <rzx237> ikonia: maybe edit some xml file somewhere?
[09:11] <oxymoron> theadmin: Hmm not sure if its good fill it with some random stuff so they get tricked enough ... We'll see later on then.
[09:12] <ikonia> rzx237: no
[09:12] <ikonia> vikas_: no
[09:12] <oxymoron> theadmin: Btw, do you know if its possible to skip BIOS logo screen someway fo make booting faster?
[09:12] <Night_Elf`food> rzx237: If I were you, I'd ask in #gnome  for they do know all the ins and outs of GNOME components
[09:12] <CaptainTrek> oxymoron:  thats a setting in BIOS
[09:12] <oxymoron> CaptainTrek: But what happens if I do, if and when I want into BIOS later on, how?
[09:12] <IsUp> Hello, i am using 10.04 LTS, when i login with SSH, motd says "7 packages can be updated."
[09:12] <IsUp> how can i update these packages?
[09:13] <theadmin> oxymoron: Uh. No.
[09:13] <vikas_> ikonia, cant v just modify the existing image to new one what we want in the system files
[09:13] <CaptainTrek> oxymoron: you mean skipping BIOS' POST?
[09:13] <ikonia> vikas_: no
[09:13] <CaptainTrek> no you cant do that
[09:13] <oxymoron> CaptainTrek: Yes
[09:13] <IsUp> i did 'apt-get update; apt-get upgrade' but it says "0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 3 not upgraded."
[09:13] <CaptainTrek> oxymoron:  no you cant do that
[09:13] <CaptainTrek> oxymoron: no BIOS lets you turn that off
[09:13] <oxymoron> CaptainTrek: Would be cool, I took time on my SSD drive, the BIOS logo and POST process take like 20 seconds and *buntu boots under 5 seconds
[09:14] <vikas_> ikonia, nothing is impossible ill solve this any how
[09:14] <oxymoron> CaptainTrek: So it take like 30 seconds anyway
[09:14] <CaptainTrek> oxymoron:  its not safe to disable POST
[09:14] <CaptainTrek> trust me
[09:14] <Psy-T> Good morning all.
[09:14] <Psy-T> can someone help me get youtube videos and the like to work on Ubuntu?
[09:14] <theadmin> Psy-T: Flash?
[09:14] <CaptainTrek> Psy-T:  install flash player
[09:14] <vikas_> rzx237, if u get some thing then tell me
[09:14] <CaptainTrek> !flast | Psy-T
[09:14] <oxymoron> CaptainTrek: Probably not ... Will it go faster if I buy a better motherboard? :D
[09:15] <theadmin> Psy-T: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-installer
[09:15] <CaptainTrek> !flash | Psy-T
[09:15] <well_laid_lawn> vikas_: http://www.kartook.com/2010/05/linux-how-do-you-change-login-gdm-image-in-ubuntu-10-04-lucid-lynx/
[09:15] <CaptainTrek> oxymoron:  dunno, what do you have in there now?
[09:15] <oxymoron> CaptainTrek: A Asus Maximus Formula
[09:15] <Shamoun> hey guys, i upgraded to ubuntu 10.04 and now my monitor goes blank when i try and boot up, i have tried to remove the "quiet" line in grub and replace it with "nomodeset" but it doesn't make a difference
[09:15] <Shamoun> any ideas?
[09:15] <Psy-T> I have Gnash installed, but youtube still isn't working. I'll try to get Flash.
[09:15] <HarryS> gnash works fine on youtube for me
[09:15] <IsUp> Hello, i am using 10.04 LTS, when i login with SSH, motd says "7 packages can be updated."
[09:15] <IsUp> i did 'apt-get update; apt-get upgrade' but it says "0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 3 not upgraded."
[09:15] <IsUp> how can i update these packages?
[09:16] <HarryS> install mozilla-gnashplugin (or something like that, Psy-T)
[09:16] <HarryS> It needs the mozilla plugins.
[09:16] <CaptainTrek> oxymoron: i dont know what would increase boot time, the lag might be because its testing all components on the system, but IDK
[09:16] <rzx237> vikas_: gdm-legacy is deprecated in lucid
[09:16] <Psy-T> HarryS: It is installed.
[09:16] <CaptainTrek> Psy-T: one sec
[09:16] <oxymoron> CaptainTrek: I only use SATA units, one simple nvidia 7950 GT, 4 Corsair RAM 800 Mhz RAM
[09:16] <HarryS> hm
[09:16] <vikas_> well_laid_lawn, the file is not there
[09:16] <hsetiM> Help plz i have a 1 linux server n 15 clients (win 7) n i want to connect all the client to server in network for net connection n printer sharing how can i do this
[09:16] <shomon> how do I get my window buttons to go to the right side of the windows in ubuntu 10?
[09:16] <oxymoron> CaptainTrek: I think its the only components affecting POST process
[09:16] <Psy-T> Installed Adobe's now, will try.
[09:17] <IsUp> hsetiM: use Samba
[09:17] <shomon> I can't find a setting under system->prefs->appearance
[09:17] <well_laid_lawn> vikas_: I just gave the link - didn't check it
[09:17] <oxymoron> CaptainTrek: Then I did memorytest86+ before and got some errors on my RAM sticks, could be that?
[09:17] <Psy-T> still getting "An error occured, please try again later" in youtube.
[09:17] <theadmin> ubottu: controls | shomon
[09:17] <vikas_> rzx237, cant we modify gdm-legacy
[09:17] <well_laid_lawn> vikas_: try   http://cristalinux.blogspot.com/2010/02/missing-gdm.html  - or do your own googling
[09:17] <Psy-T> maybe I should just close and re-open firefox
[09:17] <IsUp> Psy-T: on your flash player?
[09:18] <IsUp> where it says "error occured"?
[09:18] <CaptainTrek> oxymoron:  could be
[09:18] <Psy-T> on the part of the window in youtube that's supposed to display the video, IsUp.
[09:18] <shomon> thanks theadmin !
[09:18]  * oxymoron recommend everyone NOT use Flash at all so Adobe realise that it sucks ....................
[09:18] <IsUp> restart firefox
[09:18] <hsetiM> IsUp, ok n how to share my net connections
[09:18] <oxymoron> CaptainTrek: Do you know if its possible to fix erros on RAM someway in Ubuntu?
[09:19] <ikonia> oxymoron: it's not
[09:19] <Psy-T> that did the trick, and the audio is working without a hitch too. thanks. :)
[09:19] <oxymoron> CaptainTrek: I have lifetime warranty on them so no prob, but would like to not send them in.
[09:19] <well_laid_lawn> !ics | hsetiM
[09:19] <oxymoron> ikonia: Alright, to bad :/
[09:19] <IsUp> i am using 10.04 LTS, when i login with SSH, motd says "7 packages can be updated."
[09:19] <IsUp> i did 'apt-get update; apt-get upgrade' but it says "0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 3 not upgraded."
[09:19] <hsetiM> IsUp, i also want to know which is device are used for net connection means router or switch
[09:19] <oxymoron> ikonia: Theoreticly then, would it be possible or what kind of errors is it? WHy does RAM get worse?
[09:19] <IsUp> but it still saying "7 packages can be updated"
[09:19] <theadmin> IsUp: apt-get dist-upgrade - try
[09:20] <ikonia> oxymoron: if you have ram errors - you have bad ram, you need to buy new ram
[09:20] <IsUp> oh, its going to install kernel headers
[09:20] <IsUp> i am scared
[09:20] <theadmin> IsUp: It won't remove old ones
[09:20] <oxidizer> hey
[09:20] <theadmin> IsUp: So if you want, you can always boot in old kernel
[09:20] <oxymoron> ikonia: Hmm :/ I guess I send them in later on then, not sure how you do it though, if you go to the vendor or Corsair itself.
[09:21] <alexbobP> is there a way to do an alternate install from a flash drive?
[09:21] <CaptainTrek> oxymoron:  go to Corsair
[09:21] <eFfeM_work> hi, is there a place where I can find gcc3 for 10.04? It doesn't seem to be on the official feed and I have a program that refuses to be compiled with gcc4
[09:21] <alexbobP> unetbootin seems to work just fine for the ubuntu livecd
[09:21] <CaptainTrek> oxymoron:  if its a lifetime warranty, corsair will fix it
[09:21] <alexbobP> but when I use unetbootin on the alternate cd, the installer doesn't work properly because it looks for a cd
[09:21] <oxymoron> CaptainTrek: Then I have to pay for the freaking shipping and all, right? :S
[09:21] <CaptainTrek> oxymoron:  AFAIK, contact Corsair support first to figure it out
[09:21] <IsUp> i am using a FXO telephony card which using my kernel headers
[09:21]  * CaptainTrek goes to get pain meds
[09:22] <IsUp> i dont know so much but
[09:22] <IsUp> does it affects any software?
[09:22] <IsUp> i am running a PBX
[09:22] <theadmin> IsUp: Usually it does not... kernel updates break VirtualBox quite often though
[09:22] <oxymoron> CaptainTrek: But I am thinking of MAYBE buy new MB, CPU and RAM, but rather not if I dont need to because I have already throw away a lot of money lately on my freaking computer I dont want to sit on anyway
[09:22] <alexbobP> eFfeM_work: you can download it here: http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-3.0/
[09:22] <bazhang> oxymoron, please take this to #ubuntu-offtopic
[09:23] <Psy-T> My QMMP won't open. I used it perfectly well yesterday, and after about 8 hours of playing music, jACK stalled, so I had to reset the bus and start it again. Since then, QMMP doesn't start.
[09:23] <alexbobP> eFfeM_work: whoops... that's not actually the download site, but it does link to the download sites.  ftp://ftp.mirrorservice.org/sites/sourceware.org/pub/gcc/old-releases/gcc-3/
[09:23] <oxymoron> bazhang: Alright, but I dont know when discussion goes support and when OT. Last time they said on off topic that I should go here :D
[09:23] <eFfeM_work> alexbobP: I know, but that would require me to rebuild the compiler. was hoping that there is a binary somewhere
[09:24] <IsUp> theadmin: updating to new kernel
[09:24] <Psy-T> I'd give an error log, but I didn't get such a report, the window just doesn't open.
[09:24] <alexbobP> eFfeM_work: oh, I dunno then.  I'm in the habit of building whenever something's not in the repos.
[09:24] <Ileden> Hi! After upgrading to lucid, I've been experiencing weird problems of system slowing down after some use time. ActionParsip asked me to look at dmesg after the slowdown happens, but I see nothing of significance there. Can anyone help me troubleshoot the issue further?
[09:24] <theadmin> alexbobP: Well of course :D No other way, either packages or build it
[09:24] <alexbobP> theadmin: well some software is provided as binaries
[09:25] <alexbobP> theadmin: in which case you wouldn't have to build it
[09:25] <IsUp> I have 2 servers, on same network. How can i "mount" a directory from A box to B box
[09:25] <alexbobP> gcc doesn't seem to have binaries for download though
[09:25] <theadmin> alexbobP: Oh... hm. DIdn't see this in quite a while
[09:25] <shomon> wow that gconftool is brilliant and fast...
[09:25] <alexbobP> IsUp: my favorite way is sshfs
[09:25] <alexbobP> IsUp: on box A, do "sshfs boxb:/directory /destination"
[09:25] <IsUp> alexbobP: i am using it too but is there any other solution?
[09:25] <well_laid_lawn> Ileden: did you check   top   in terminal to what was using system resources?
[09:25] <Ileden> As my problem seems like a memory leak, I've tried to hunt it down, but I see no process taking up unusual amounts of memory.
[09:25] <IsUp> yes, sshfs root@host:/dir /dest
[09:26] <alexbobP> IsUp: there's NFS, which is probably harder to configure
[09:26] <phlak_user> IsUp: NFS is another option
[09:26] <phlak_user> IsUp: samba is also available
[09:26] <Ileden> well_laid_lawn: my "top" skills are a bit limited. what should I take into account there?
[09:26] <IsUp> ah
[09:26] <IsUp> okay, sshfs is simple :D
[09:26] <well_laid_lawn> Ileden: top  has a column for mem usage
[09:26] <alexbobP> IsUp: as I said, sshfs is my favorite way ;)
[09:27] <IsUp> thank you
[09:27] <theadmin> Hm, Firefox just won't start. Starting it, it appears and poof - it's gone! And killall firefox gives "firefox - no process found"
[09:27] <alexbobP> IsUp: if it's the password prompt that's bugging you, you might set up ssh keys
[09:27] <phlak_user> theadmin: starting it from a terminal will throw up the error
[09:27] <Merwin> re
[09:27] <Procule> theadmin, it's firefox-bin usually
[09:27] <well_laid_lawn> theadmin: it is    killall -v firefox-bin
[09:27] <theadmin> well_laid_lawn: Uh, firefox always worked before
[09:28] <theadmin> Never mind, it started when I did it from terminal o_o
[09:28] <IsUp> alexbobP: yes, i did it. i am already using sshfs as i said, thank you.
[09:28] <well_laid_lawn> theadmin: never worked here since warty
[09:28] <Ileden> well_laid_lawn: which column is relevant? VIRT RES SHR %MEM (they all have to do with memory, right?)
[09:28] <Procule> theadmin, you will see the error if it crashes.
[09:28] <theadmin> well_laid_lawn: Are you using the Ubuntu firefox release or from their PPA/site?
[09:28] <well_laid_lawn> Ileden: the mem one
[09:28] <alexbobP> Does anybody know how to do an encrypted install of ubuntu from a flash drive?
[09:28] <well_laid_lawn> theadmin: from ubuntu
[09:29] <theadmin> well_laid_lawn: :/ Works here I tell ya
[09:29] <alexbobP> I need the alternate cd to do an encrypted install (if I'm not mistaken), and the alternate cd doesn't work with unetbootin
[09:29] <well_laid_lawn> theadmin: you mean worked? :]
[09:29] <Merwin> phlak_user, I did some test with plymouth and upstart: I create a perso.conf file in /etc/init with this inside: http://pastebin.com/fP8nZGn1 - But nothing is shown during the boot
[09:29] <Merwin> Upstart and plymouth are both very bad documented :/
[09:29] <theadmin> well_laid_lawn: It does work: "killall firefox" just works now. The weird not starting is solved thanks, now the command works as before
[09:29] <well_laid_lawn> theadmin: use the   -v   option with killall firefox
[09:30] <Ileden> well_laid_lawn: nothing too weird there as far as I understand. thunderbird-bin 4.6, soffice-bin 4.1, prism-bin 2.3 are the largest.
[09:30] <sr_rules> i can't access the itunes share on my lan from Rhythmbox but they are accessible from itunes. Any idea??
[09:30] <theadmin> well_laid_lawn: -v?
[09:30] <alexbobP> it's so hard to get support in here, if the 3 people who see your question before it scrolls off the screen don't know :(
[09:30] <ikonia> sr_rules: itunes is a proriptary tool
[09:30] <well_laid_lawn> theadmin: for verbose
[09:30] <theadmin> well_laid_lawn: ...how can kill/killall/pkill be verbose :/
[09:30] <vyom> how we access mdb file in ubuntu
[09:30] <alexbobP> sr_rules: are you sure there aren't any firewalls in the way?
[09:30] <well_laid_lawn> theadmin: man killall
[09:30] <vyom> please help eme out
[09:30] <alexbobP> sr_rules: are you on the same subnet as the itunes share?
[09:31] <ikonia>  /last vyom
[09:31] <sr_rules> no i doesn't have any firewall installed
[09:31] <vyom> ya ikonia
[09:31] <ikonia> vyom: I'm not sure if linux has a tool that can read microsoft access files
[09:31] <sr_rules> yes
[09:31] <Ileden> well_laid_lawn: and the slowdown persists even when closing the top applications.
[09:31] <theadmin> vyom: There is some "MDB viewer" in Ubuntu Software Center
[09:31] <phlak_user> Merwin: like i said before, I dont know anything about customizing plymouth; sorry
[09:31] <Merwin> okay :/
[09:32] <sr_rules> alexbobp : I can access those shares from itunes when i am using windows
[09:32] <Merwin> Does somebody could help me with plymouth and upstart?
[09:32] <vyom> ya its is mdb-tools gmdb
[09:32] <vyom> it is
[09:32] <alexbobP> sr_rules: ah, so it's from the same computer
[09:32] <alexbobP> sr_rules: I dunno then... must be a bug in rhythmbox if it's supposed to be able to access itunes shares
[09:32] <alexbobP> sr_rules: maybe try another media player like amarok?
[09:32] <ikonia> vyom: if you know the tools, why are you asking how to access ?
[09:32] <well_laid_lawn> Ileden: next check is in terminal type   free -m   and look at the buffers/cache line - is all the mem used?
[09:32] <vyom> commands to access the tols
[09:33] <void_pointer> I tried to run Visual Studio 2010 under Wine and it didn't work all proper like. Is it possible to get my money back for ubuntu?
[09:33] <vyom> actually i am new to linux
[09:33] <alexbobP> void_pointer: sure, here ya go
[09:33]  * alexbobP gives void_pointer his money back
[09:33] <ikonia> void_pointer: don't be silly - you know it's fre
[09:33] <ikonia> free
[09:33] <Night_Elf`food> lol void_pointer ?
[09:33] <alexbobP> ikonia: too late, I just gave him all of it
[09:33] <jibadeeha> anyone here have issues playing DVDs in totem
[09:34] <alexbobP> jibadeeha: this is just my opinion, so ymmv... but totem sucks.  use vlc ;)
[09:34] <vyom> help me
[09:34] <alexbobP> never had issues playing dvds with vlc
[09:34] <alexbobP> vyom: I'll help you if you help me!
[09:34] <Ileden> well_laid_lawn: I'm not sure how to interpret that, but the first line is "total 2013, used 1507, free 505, shared 0, buffers 662, cached 467"
[09:34] <jibadeeha> alexbobP, have you completely removed totem from ubuntu?
[09:34] <void_pointer> ikonia free as in beer?
[09:34] <theadmin> void_pointer: Free as in freedom.
[09:34] <ikonia> vyom: read the man pages for mdb-tools
[09:34] <ikonia> vyom: stop messing around
[09:34] <alexbobP> jibadeeha: I have uninstalled it just so firefox wouldn't run it by default
[09:34] <well_laid_lawn> vyom: if you asked your question on one line it might help
[09:34] <ikonia> vyom: sorry - not you
[09:34] <vyom> om
[09:34] <vyom> ok
[09:34] <ikonia> void_pointer: stop messing around
[09:34] <Night_Elf`food> void_pointer: but if you so like, as in beer too
[09:34] <vyom> i will
[09:34] <void_pointer> hmm I'll ask Stallman
[09:34] <alexbobP> jibadeeha: even when I use kde, firefox uses gnome's default file associations... very annoying
[09:35] <jibadeeha> aleksil, i use chrome so i wonder if it would use vlc plugin if any
[09:35] <vishpoison> hey another problem m having.. its tomcat now..
[09:35] <teklib> hello
[09:35] <vishpoison> i installed tomcat using steps on this page http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=226828
[09:35] <well_laid_lawn> Ileden: the next line has buffers/cache near the start - under the "free' column is there much left
[09:35] <lindsaymobil22> Im gonna be upgrading to windows 7 and i was wondering has anyone tried out ubuntu 10.04 Wubi orLinux mint 9 Mint4Win? do they work fine with windows 7?
[09:35] <alexbobP> void_pointer: moar trollan?
[09:35] <jibadeeha> aleksil, i agree that totem sucks though ... will give vlc a go
[09:35] <ikonia> alexbobP: stop trying to start him
[09:35] <Illuminatus> hi, I have a question, do you know If I can clasify the differents kinds of spam (phising, malware, scam,...). I don't just want to get the spam mail I want to clasify them
[09:35] <vishpoison> and its not working.. the startup command works
[09:35] <Illuminatus> I'm making a research about spam and I want to install spamassasin but I think it can't do that exactly
[09:35] <vishpoison> but i cant access the localhost
[09:36] <Ileden> well_laid_lawn: "-/+ buffers/cache: used 377, free 1636"
[09:36] <void_pointer> ikonia I found him. He asked why I was using ubuntu when they kept breaking the rules of free software. I told him I couldn't ask because I'd get kicked and have to hang out in #debian again
[09:36] <alexbobP> Illuminatus: classifying malware spam is easy... find ones with executable code
[09:36] <alexbobP> Illuminatus: phishing vs scam?  i dunno, those sound like the same
[09:36] <Ileden> well_laid_lawn: swap is total 5836, used 0, free 5836
[09:36] <well_laid_lawn> Ileden: it has 1636mB of memory free - so it is not a memory used up issue then
[09:37] <theadmin> Breaking rules of free software... what a troll... it's full GPL... :/
[09:37] <Illuminatus> alexbobP: I mean, I want to classify the differents kind of spam (junk spam for example, phising, virus)
[09:37] <Illuminatus> but I want something to clasify automaticly
[09:37] <Ileden> well_laid_lawn: Ok. What else could cause a slowdown after some usage time?
[09:37] <vishpoison> hey another problem m having.. its tomcat now..
[09:38] <vishpoison> i installed tomcat using steps on this page http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=226828
[09:38] <alexbobP> Illuminatus: clamav
[09:38] <vishpoison> but i cant access the localhost
[09:38] <vishpoison> the startup command works
[09:38] <Illuminatus> alexbobP: postfix+ clamav + spamassasing ?
[09:38] <alexbobP> Illuminatus: sure.
[09:38] <well_laid_lawn> Ileden: in terminal run   top   again and look at the third line from the top that starts with Cpu - there is a value for %id near the middle of that line - how much?
[09:39] <alexbobP> okay, nobody here knows about the alternate installer I guess
[09:39] <lindsaymobil22> everyone: Im gonna be upgrading to windows 7 and i was wondering has anyone tried out ubuntu 10.04 Wubi orLinux mint 9 Mint4Win? do they work fine with windows 7?
[09:39] <alexbobP> bye bye
[09:39] <Illuminatus> alexbobP: but spamassasin just clasify spam or normal mail
[09:39] <theadmin> lindsaymobil22: Uhm. We don't support Windows, but as for WUBI - it works
[09:39] <alexbobP> lindsaymobil22: I haven't actually tried wubi with win7, but I'm pretty sure it still works, I'd try it
[09:39] <Illuminatus> but I want to have differents folders and sort each kind of spam in those folders
[09:39] <Ileden> well_laid_lawn: %id is jumping around 90
[09:40] <lindsaymobil22> alexbobP: its just becos im using wubi 9.04 and vista sp2 and im gonna upgrade and im not sure about wubi 10.04 or linux mint 9 mint4win
[09:41] <lindsaymobil22> people on the forums complain 9.10 messed up the 7 bootloader
[09:41] <well_laid_lawn> Ileden: that means you are using around 10% of the cpu - so that is not the issue
[09:42] <Ileden> well_laid_lawn: this could be some sort of display adapter issue (as what I see getting jerky is window management stuff, and mouse responsiveness) but none of the fixes I've tried (swithging between "radeon" and "ati" in xorg.conf, using a PPA fix provided for the bug #444139) haven't helped.
[09:42] <well_laid_lawn> Ileden: do you have a xorg.conf file?
[09:43] <Ileden> well_laid_lawn: yes. thouhg I haven't modified it myself, other than switching the radeon/ati driver
[09:43] <lindsaymobil22> has anyone tried the new mint4win? im not sure about it because of what happened with mint 8 and the grub2 error
[09:43] <lindsaymobil22> ive been to the forums, nothing there
[09:43] <IdleOne> !mint | lindsaymobil22
[09:44] <ikonia> lindsaymobil22: mint is not supported here
[09:44] <well_laid_lawn> Ileden: k - do you know the vid card?

[09:44] <lindsaymobil22> k thanx
[09:44] <hsetiM> IsUp, i also want to know which is device are used for net connection means router or switch
[09:45] <IsUp> hsetiM, i think you need a basic networking course or something
[09:45] <Ileden> well_laid_lawn: my xorg.conf at http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/UW81jVBg
[09:45] <IsUp> i dont know internet connection sharing on Ubuntu
[09:45] <hsetiM> yes i know but its an urgent i know some basic but iam still confuse
[09:45] <ikonia> hsetiM: what do you want ?
[09:45] <Ileden> well_laid_lawn: lspci says " ATI Technologies Inc RV280 [Radeon 9200] (rev 01)"
[09:45] <IsUp> basicly, you need a router or switch, dhcp server
[09:46] <Ileden> well_laid_lawn: (which is correct)
[09:46] <well_laid_lawn> Ileden: tried commenting the line   Option          "XAANoOffscreenPixmaps"   ? - a comment is a # at the start of the line
[09:47] <Ileden> well_laid_lawn: need to restart after that, I assume?
[09:47] <hsetiM>  i think my linux server to connect to router but i am confuse in clients means i can connect my clients to router or switch
[09:47] <hsetiM> ikonia, IsUp  i think my linux server to connect to router but i am confuse in clients means i can connect my clients to router or switch
[09:47] <ikonia> hsetiM: clients need to be on the same nework as your server, it doesn't matter how
[09:47] <well_laid_lawn> Ileden: or just restart gdm - sudo service gdm restart
[09:48] <Ileden> well_laid_lawn: problem is, at least full system restart makes the problem go away for some time, so further troubleshooting will have to wait an hour or so :)
[09:48] <tomoyat1> Quit:
[09:49] <hsetiM> ikonia,  i have a 1 linux server n 15 win7 clients n now i want to setup them i know all dhcp nat samba but iam confuse in h/w means where router is required oor whrere switch is required
[09:49] <ikonia> hsetiM: then you need to get someone who understands your network to help you
[09:49] <ikonia> hsetiM: that is not an ubuntu issue, so nothing to do with this channel
[09:49] <Ileden> well_laid_lawn: then again, if it could fix the issue, it's well worth trying. I'll do that and get back here if/when it reappeard?
[09:49] <Ileden> *reappears?
[09:49] <well_laid_lawn> k
[09:50] <hsetiM> ikonia, hey man can you suggest me any channel
[09:50] <ikonia> sorry, no
[09:52] <hsetiM> i have ubuntu 10.04 lucid lynx as server which is connected to net with 2 eth0 card and i want to connect all my win 7 client machine to server so which device is used for that purpose
[09:53] <ikonia> hsetiM: stop asking
[09:53] <ikonia> hsetiM: I've told you it's nothing to do with this channel
[09:53] <hsetiM> ikonia, ok
[09:53] <xnixan> Hi, is there any way to convert xml files to .ods (Openoffice spread sheet)?
[09:53] <augustl> The output of "sudo apt-get install xen-tools". What's going on here? http://sprunge.us/fhEi
[09:54] <well_laid_lawn> hsetiM: there is ##networking for that
[09:54] <augustl> it is refered to by ubuntu-xen-server afaik, in case that matters
[09:54] <zipper> any1 know how to connect to my phone's memory card?
[09:55] <augustl> oh it also says "E: Package xen-tools has no installation candidate."
[09:56] <zipper> any1 knows how to open phone's memory card????
[09:56] <augustl> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xen-meta/+bug/540110 - no comments or any progress at all, odd
[09:56] <ikonia> zipper: should be able to just mount it if your phone supports mass-storage mode
[09:56] <airtonix> xnixan, i imagine that there is some python libs in the repos to deal with openoffice
[09:56] <zipper> ikonia: how do i do that?
[09:56] <napnap> hi
[09:56] <ikonia> depends on your phone, research if your phone supports mass-storage mode
[09:57] <airtonix> xnixan, if you are comfortable with creating python shell scripts then you could simply create a nautilus script to convert it
[09:57] <xnixan> airtonix, thanks, i will check it :)
[09:57] <airtonix> xnixan, first thing i check is apt-cache search openoffice | grep python
[09:58] <zipper> ikonia: i am using a htc snap
[09:58] <zipper> ikonia: i done research didn't show much online
[09:58] <hsetiM> well_laid_lawn, thanks
[09:58] <xXedixXx> Hello, can anyone message me and helpe me compile some source code with cMake please?
[09:58] <ikonia> zipper: I'm not personally interested in your phone, you need to research if it supports mass storage mode, then connect it to your ubuntu machine and it should show up as a storage device for you to just mount
[09:58] <zipper> ikonia: i have connected it but it shows nothing
[09:59] <xnixan> airtonix, thanks a lot, that would cut the way!
[09:59] <ikonia> zipper: then it probably doesn't support it
[09:59] <zipper> ikonia: only that it connects to the internet's wired network
[10:00] <ikonia> zipper: it probably doesn't support it

[10:21] <oCean_> MrChris: if you are talking about YOUR webserver, a site running on your machine, you have to configure apache. Or are you talking about surfing the internet to a PHP site?
[10:22] <_nobody_> mustafa_: and?
[10:22] <rabby> well_laid_lawn: i want to restart X, but sbackup got started by a process in X :-(
[10:22] <rabby> well_laid_lawn: i just want it to go on running...
[10:22] <well_laid_lawn> rabby: add a space then a & to the end of it
[10:23] <rabby> well_laid_lawn: it's started by a gnome app...
[10:23] <rabby> well_laid_lawn: not by me in console
[10:23] <well_laid_lawn> rabby: hard to say then - what app starts it?
[10:24] <well_laid_lawn> just x?
[10:24] <rabby> simple-backup-config (in X/gnome) -> starts sbackup (console)
[10:25] <well_laid_lawn> rabby: from the name name it might be a shell script - you might find an option in there if it is - the best i can offer sorry - someone else might have a clue
[10:28] <SauLus> I lost an openoffice file today. Its corrupted, nothing in there. I need to get it back!!
[10:28] <CuriosTiger> Howdy all. I'm running lucid in a virtual machine, but my desired screen resolution does not take effect until I actually log in. Both the boot sequence and the gnome-session login screen are stuck at 640x480, and apparently, using the vga= parameter to the kernel (via grub) is both deprecated and ineffective.
[10:28] <SauLus> I had a look at ~/.openoffice.org/3/user/backup/ but its empty.
[10:29] <SauLus> I think I have to grep through my ext4 file system. Is there any chance that I can get my file back?
[10:29] <oCean_> SauLus: why you say it is corrupted? Or was that the message at startup?
[10:30] <Procule> CuriosTiger, the boot sequence is normal if you did not load and select a proper module, for gdm you should have that option in System/Administration
[10:30] <SauLus> oCean_: it was the message at startup
[10:30] <SauLus> the recovering results to an empty file
[10:31] <oCean_> SauLus: that sounds bad
[10:31] <bradpitt> aloha. on unr/une Lucid. some applications window just too big and i can't resize it. how to make it fit with small netbook screen?
[10:32] <oCean_> SauLus: and you can not find it anywhere?
[10:33] <CuriosTiger> Procule: Where in System->Administration?
[10:33] <leagris> Hello, does Ubuntu Gnome Keyring support pam module and why it is not enabled by default. Do you thing it is a security rick having gnome keyring unlocked upon login instead of separate password dialog?
[10:33] <pompa> hi everyone. Any of you knws if exists a tool to verify visually which characters are included in a specified font?
[10:33] <Procule> CuriosTiger, left/top corner, right to "places"
[10:34] <Procule> called "Login screen"
[10:34] <oCean_> bradpitt: I'm not a unr user, but have you been here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UNR ?
[10:34] <ohir> pompa: accesories -> charmap
[10:34] <Green_> Guys, how do i change the default that will be selected in the GRUB screen?
[10:35] <CuriosTiger> Procule: I'm in the Login Screen control panel, but I don't see any kind of module selection or screen resolution setting in that control panel.
[10:35] <zipper> Hi any idea how can i play mpeg files?
[10:36] <CuriosTiger> Interesting. I seem to have two copies of the Screensaver preference panel
[10:36] <SauLus> oCean_: This file has been created yesterday. 10h of work. No backup, no other copy
[10:36] <phlak_user> zipper: mplayer
[10:36] <Procule> you're right... it changed in lucid
[10:36] <pompa> ohir: by charmap I can see all the utf tables, But I cannot see if a specified font has that characters in its set
[10:36] <SauLus> oCean_: I wasnt finished. Wanted to make a backup right now - but the file is corrupted now. F**K!
[10:36] <phlak_user> CuriosTiger: it can be achieved by ubuntu-tweak now
[10:36] <zipper> phlak_user: are we able to convert mpeg files into mp3?
[10:36] <b0nn> right, why is ubuntu refusing to put my wifi card into ad-hoc mode
[10:36] <Green_> Can anyone help me please?
[10:36] <alktors> I have enabled wireless but network manager shows: wireless networks(disconnected) with grey and I can't do anything. Why?
[10:36] <nicofs> Hello. Can somebody help me set up a 3G connection via Network Manager? The connection is there, but I can't connect. I suspect in has to to with the fact, that I wasn't asked for my PIN...
[10:36] <phlak_user> !anyone
[10:37] <b0nn> alktors: what does iwconfig say
[10:37] <Green_> ubottu: i asked mine first, and was ignored
[10:37] <phlak_user> nicofs: what carrier?
[10:37] <pompa> ohir: for example, I'd like to see if a certain font contains omacron, umacron ecc...
[10:37] <nicofs> O2 Germany
[10:37] <oCean_> SauLus: however annoying it is, (obfuscated) swearing is not allowed here. But at this point, you cannot find the file at all?
[10:37] <bradpitt> oCean_, i already check the site. unfortunately no solutions for mi problem. thanks anyway bro.
[10:37] <alktors> b0nn,  I am an beginner, I use ubuntu 10.04 amd64 version, were do I type that, in the terminal?
[10:37] <phlak_user> nicofs: does it show up in Network Manager?
[10:37] <nicofs> yes
[10:38] <phlak_user> nicofs: im assuming you're using a usb dongle
[10:38] <ohir> pompa: you've said 'visually'. What means you select font and look for character that interests you then check its properties (for U code ie).
[10:38] <nicofs> integrated device
[10:38] <Green_> Guys, how do i change the GRUB screen's default?
[10:38] <nicofs> and with a different SIM card, the device itself worked before... so I guess it's not a driver problem
[10:38] <phlak_user> nicofs: can you open a terminal and type tail -f /var/log/daemon.log and then try to connect? you can then pastebin the messages that show up in the terminal
[10:38] <ohir> pompa: charmap let you do so
[10:38] <alktors> b0nn,  I did it, now I  will paste the paste-it...
[10:39] <alktors> b0nn,  http://paste-it.net/public/b7d52bb/
[10:39] <alktors> b0nn,  This is what iwconfig shows me in the terminal.
[10:39] <phlak_user> Green_: edit /etc/default/grub and then run grub2-update
[10:39] <AdvoWork> hmm, ive got php installed, and apache, but i think somethings gone wrong, i goto localhost/ run a file   file.php and it tries to open it rather than run it, in ubuntu. Any ideas please?
[10:39] <Green_> phlak_user: will try, thanks
[10:39] <oCean_> AdvoWork: did you enable the php module (in apache) ?
[10:40] <nicofs> it sais "Stage 1 of 5" (Device Prepare complete)
[10:40] <nicofs> over and over again
[10:40] <pompa> ohir: but charmap accesories -> charmap shows me also the characters not included in a specific font. So if i select century schoolbook I can see also the runic characters, which are not included in the font
[10:40] <llutz> AdvoWork:  /j #httpd         make sure to have apache-mod-php5 installed and run "a2enmod php5"
[10:41] <red> my laptop has atis gfx card
[10:41] <red> where do I go to tweak antialiasing etc settings?
[10:41] <red> like the equivalent of nvidia-settings for nvidia cards
[10:41] <nicofs> I never used this sim before and I haven'T been asked for my PIN yet, so I would be extremely surprised if it could connect...
[10:41] <b0nn> alktors: at the moment I am thinking ubuntu is rubbish for wifi
[10:41] <DASPRiD> red, heh i was just going to say, nvidia-settings :)
[10:41] <Green_> phlak_user: change the "GUB_DEFAULT"?
[10:41] <red> DASPRiD: thats hardly the case for ATI :P
[10:41] <conb123> Is there a desktop application on ubuntu for playing swf files? Similar to the flashplayer app on windows?
[10:41] <DASPRiD> red, ati-settings? :D
[10:42] <alktors> b0nn,  Ohh...and isn't it a way to use wifi? and get rid of that grey wireless networks disconnected thing in my network manager?
[10:42] <DASPRiD> conb123, flc?
[10:42] <leagris> Installed libpam-gnome-keyring but it did not update /etc/pam.d/gdm-autologin. Is this a security issue enabling pam keyring with gnome autologin?
[10:42] <alktors> b0nn,  I really want to use wifi too.
[10:42] <red> DASPRiD: I did try that before, na'ah :P
[10:42] <DASPRiD> conb123, *vlc
[10:42] <SauLus> oCean_: I dont have the file at two places. The the file I am working at ~/myfile.odt is corrupted. There is no backupt. The openoffice backup directory is empty. file  ~/myfile.odt : OpenDocument Text.
[10:42] <conb123> DASPRid: No tried, wouldn't open my swf
[10:42] <SauLus> I think I have to grep through the partition
[10:42] <ohir> pompa: ok. You're right. There is by language choice only.
[10:42] <SauLus> how was it? sudo grep -A /dev/mydevice?
[10:43] <DASPRiD> conb123, oh, you want a flash player, not a player for flv videos
[10:43] <conb123> DASPRid: Yes, for an swf
[10:43] <DASPRiD> conb123, firefox should do
[10:43] <conb123> not an flc
[10:43] <oCean_> SauLus: what you could try is: start oo writer, then Insert > File > myfile.odt
[10:43] <llutz> SauLus: grep -ri pattern /mount/point/*
[10:43] <conb123> *flv
[10:43] <Lefantomedurezo> Hello, is there a way to close gnome-panel and to prevent him to launch again?
[10:43] <ohir> pompa: so either you use OO font choice dialog or google for some font-creation software
[10:43] <zipper> how do i convert mpeg files to mp3?
[10:44] <conb123> DASPRid: Yes I know the browser can do it but I was wondering if there was a desktop application just for playing flash files, like adobe makes for windows, flashplayer
[10:44] <red> VLC can play .SWF files iirc?=
[10:44] <DASPRiD> conb123, maybe adobe air?
[10:44] <red> have you tried at least
[10:44] <Arch_NME> hi
[10:44] <DASPRiD> red, he has
[10:44] <Arch_NME> any idea how to spped up a touchpad on a laptop
[10:44] <pompa> ohir: and simpler, is there a way to count the number of single character wich are in a font?
[10:44] <phlak_user> Green_: yes
[10:45] <Arch_NME> it's moving very very dlowly
[10:45] <Green_> Ok one more, how do i get the system boot into command line (not desktop)
[10:45] <Arch_NME> slowly
[10:45] <red> ah
[10:45] <red> i confused .swf with .flv :p
[10:45] <red> sry
[10:45] <nicofs> How do I enter my PIN for 3G connections?
[10:45] <conb123> DASPRid: Possibly, thanks
[10:45] <SauLus> oCean_: "Due to an unexspected error, openoffice.org crahsed ...."
[10:45] <phlak_user> Green_: recovery mode; else just press ctl+alt+f1 once you are at gdm login
[10:46] <Green_> ok thanks :D
[10:46] <leagris> Arch_NME, did you try setting speed in menu System/Preferences/Mouse ?
[10:46] <Arch_NME> anyone know how to speed up my touchpad on a laptop?
[10:46] <ohir> pompa: look at ImageMagick suite. IIRC there were ome magics for fonts too
[10:46] <Arch_NME> yeah I turned that up all the way
[10:46] <Arch_NME> still very slow
[10:46] <AdvoWork> oCean_, unsure actually, what line would that be?
[10:47] <phlak_user> nicofs: there is an option to enter pin when you add a new mobile broadband connection in NetworkManager
[10:47] <SauLus> llutz: you are grepint through all files, not the device. I suppose the data being on the hard drive but the pointer to the data has been removed.
[10:47] <AdvoWork> llutz, ive ran a2enmod php5, it ran, and i force reloaded apache, but same problem
[10:47] <nicofs> @phlak: no
[10:47] <phlak_user> nicofs: let me see if i can pastebin the screenshot
[10:47] <pompa> ohir: thanks
[10:47] <ohir> pompa: and thats all I can help you so far.
[10:47] <Arch_NME> I got acceleration and sensativity maxed out
[10:47] <oCean_> SauLus: now, that's nasty.
[10:48] <Arch_NME> it take me 19 sweeps across the pad to get from the top of the screen to the bottom
[10:48] <Green_> phlak_user: recovery mode goes to some recovery screen, i just want it to go strait to command line
[10:48] <llutz> SauLus: you don't want to grep through a device, the only thing you can find are sectors containing your pattern, not the file.
[10:49] <leagris> Arch_NME, sorry can not help much. Look like an issue with the touchpad driver. I added a small laptop mouse long ago because I could not work efficiently with the pad though.
[10:49] <oCean_> AdvoWork: so that command was actually to enable the php5 mod. Not working is weird - but as llutz pointed out, apache help in #httpd
[10:49] <b0nn> awesome, I rebooted ubuntu (again) and it reverts my /etc/networking/interfaces to an earlier version... what the flying f***
[10:49] <lindsaymobil22> hey again, i have googled this, whenever i watch an online video in full screen, it flickers, lags, jumps on ubuntu 9.04, everything works fine on windows
[10:50] <jpds> b0nn: Use NetworkManager? :)
[10:50] <SauLus> llutz: you often recover missing files on ext3 filesystems with something like "sudo grep -AbC 20 <someinformationyouremember> /dev/yourdrive
[10:50] <leagris> Arch_NME, found this that may help you http://www.zyxware.com/articles/2008/05/22/is-your-touchpad-too-slow-in-ubuntu-fix-it
[10:50] <ActionParsnip> lindsaymobil22: make sure your video drivers are up to date. what windows does is moot
[10:50] <zipper> how do i convert mpeg files to mp3? can any1 assist?
[10:50] <reda> hello
[10:50] <nicofs> @phlak: sorry, I'm running out of time... have to go to the canteen in 5 minutes, I'll be back in about 40 minutes..
[10:50] <llutz> SauLus: that might work with pure text-file, not with zipped-xml (odt is)
[10:51] <reda> need help in ubuntu
[10:51] <lindsaymobil22> actionparsnip: i checked in the hardware drivers, its just alternative wireless drivers, intel dont offer drivers for linux graphics drivers for my laptop
[10:51] <phlak_user> nicofs: ok; ill paste the screenshot and leave the link as a message to you
[10:51] <nicofs> thanks
[10:51] <reda> i dont know to install theme in ubuntu
[10:51] <ActionParsnip> lindsaymobil22: then you may need to form an xorg.conf to specify better options
[10:51] <zipper> how do i convert mpeg files to mp3? can any1 assist???????????
[10:51] <SauLus> then your grep does also not work, right? "grep -ri pattern /mount/point/*" does not work on zipped files
[10:51] <ActionParsnip> !theme | reda
[10:52] <SauLus> then your grep does also not work, right? "grep -ri pattern /mount/point/*" does not work on zipped files llutz
[10:52] <Changeofheart> Hey XD
[10:52] <ActionParsnip> zipper: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1063989   found that in 100 seconds
[10:52] <lindsaymobil22> actionparsnip: i looked on the forums, its supposed to be flash related?
[10:52] <llutz> SauLus: most likely
[10:52] <Changeofheart> im going to reformat an old computer and put ubuntu onto it, anyone got any advice ?
[10:52] <ActionParsnip> zipper: have you not seen that page
[10:52] <llutz> SauLus: restore backup
[10:52] <phlak_user> nicofs: http://imagebin.ca/view/IPkxtnqd.html
[10:52] <lindsaymobil22> changeofheart: use a lighter DE, like xfce or lxde
[10:52] <phlak_user> Changeofheart: do it
[10:53] <reda> pleaze
[10:53] <zipper> ActionParsnip: I did but don't seem to understand
[10:53] <piero> ciao e buona giornata a tutti
[10:53] <Changeofheart> lindsaymobil22: lighter DE ?
[10:53] <ActionParsnip> lindsaymobil22: You may want to try setting  "Migration Heuristic" "greedy"   in xorg.conf  might help
[10:53] <lindsaymobil22> changeofheart: a lighter desktop enviroment
[10:54] <phlak_user> !it | piero
[10:54] <lindsaymobil22> changeofheart: like xfce or lxde
[10:54] <well_laid_lawn> fluxbox ftw!
[10:54] <ActionParsnip> zipper: its simple, just read the command given, change input_file.mpg to your file and change output_file.mp3 to the filename you want, its that simple
[10:54] <phlak_user> Changeofheart: he wants you to use a lighter window manager
[10:54] <Besogon> Hi. My problem is not consern about ubuntu but all the same. How to make partitions on a USB-stick in such way that XP would not be changed
[10:54] <lindsaymobil22> changeofheart: how old is the computer?
[10:54] <Besogon> ?
[10:54] <ActionParsnip> Changeofheart: LXDE is brilliant
[10:54] <phlak_user> Besogon: whats XP?
[10:54] <lindsaymobil22> i hate lxde
[10:55] <Arch_NME> when I try to edit that xorg.conf file it is blank
[10:55] <Arch_NME> is that right?
[10:55] <Besogon> phlak_user: WinXP
[10:55] <well_laid_lawn> flux pwns openbox !
[10:55] <SauLus> llutz: you normally dont have a backup if you created a file one day ago and did not finish, yet
[10:55] <Changeofheart> whats wrong with using ubuntu, why use LXDE ? or are they something completely dif
[10:55] <phlak_user> Besogon: and this is a ubuntu support channel
[10:55] <llutz> SauLus: then you should think about your backup-strategy
[10:55] <ActionParsnip> Arch_NME: yes, lucid doesn't ship with the file, you can generate one with: sudo Xorg -configure
[10:55] <oCean_> SauLus: any luck yet? Thought of one other possibility, that is opening the corrupted file using an other wordprocessor: "sudo apt-get install abiword" and try opening the document using abiword. Just a tip: while searching for solution, why not make a backupcopy op the (corrupted) doc?
[10:56] <lindsaymobil22> i tried to edit xorg.conf with sudo gedit xorg.conf, it was blank
[10:56] <Arch_NME> I'm using 9.10
[10:56] <b0nn> otay.. how do I get to NetworkManager?
[10:56] <Arch_NME> 10.4 doesn't work on this pc
[10:56] <ActionParsnip> Changeofheart: LXDE will run on Ubuntu, Ubuntu by default uses Gnome desktop and Metacity as it's window manager, LXDE will use openbox as the window manager and LXDE as the desktop, its just a lighter frontend
[10:56] <Changeofheart> im looking at LXDE, do i really need it? ubuntu has a smooth desktop environment as is, my computer is 32bit 512 ram
[10:57] <Besogon> phlak_user: ubuntu and Win7 can read my flash in good way but XP not. So I asked if there was way to partitioning flash-drive for using in XP FROM UBUNU?
[10:57] <ActionParsnip> Changeofheart: this is the same way KUbuntu uses KDE as the desktop and KWin as the window manager
[10:57] <MACscr> lol, why does the Disk Utility see my sata drive as a pata drivice? Even shows it connected to the pata controller
[10:57] <zipper> ActionParsnip: i keep getting input_file.mpg: no such file or directory
[10:57] <reda> are there any one want to help me
[10:57] <well_laid_lawn> Changeofheart: you asked for a lighter de
[10:58] <ActionParsnip> zipper: is the filename you want to convert called "input_file.mpg"?
[10:58] <koichirose> hello. I'm having problems setting the theme on Ubuntu 10.04. I'm choosing Human Clearlooks. Everything changes except nautilus windows (which are clearlooks, so all grey). How do I solve this?
[10:58] <ActionParsnip> Changeofheart: if you want your desktop to use less resources then its a good choice
[10:58] <Changeofheart> XD do you guys think i NEED a lighter DE, 512 ram, ubuntu as the sole OS.. only light applications are being used like word procesing and internet browsing?!?!?
[10:58] <Arch_NME> actionparshipL that cuased a fatal server error
[10:58] <zipper> ActionParsnip: nope
[10:58] <zipper> ActionParsnip: do i have to rename the thing?
[10:59] <ActionParsnip> zipper: then the command needs changing doesn't it, you change the command to use the filename you want to change
[10:59] <zipper> ActionParsnip: the files are inside this file called mpegav
[10:59] <zipper> ActionParsnip: inside a cd...
[10:59] <ActionParsnip> Changeofheart: you can always install LXDE now and log off and log in to LXDE, if you don't like it, log off then log into gnome
[11:00] <SauLus> oCean_: thats a nice try, but abiword only reads "PK????????§D¼<^Æ2" The file size of my broken file is 33K and that should be ok.
[11:00] <ActionParsnip> zipper: thats fine, just specify the file absolutely and you will be fine
[11:00] <oCean_> SauLus: getting out of options here :(
[11:00] <jmux> Hi. Is there a way to prevent apt-get from installing "required" packages on "dist-upgrade"? I've even pinned the package with -1 but it still gets installed (using 8.04 LTS).
[11:00] <Changeofheart> ActionParsnip: So i can switch between DE's after initial installation ?
[11:01] <ActionParsnip> Changeofheart: absolutely
[11:01] <ActionParsnip> Changeofheart: you select it at logon
[11:01] <ramanK> Is there anyone that experienced this? http://www.flickr.com/photos/50615397@N07/4647244302/
[11:01] <zipper> ActionParsnip: MPEGAV: no such file or directory
[11:01] <ActionParsnip> zipper: as long as you have read access to the file you want andwrite access to where you want to output the file it will be fine
[11:01] <SauLus> never mind oCean_, thank you very much for your help
[11:02] <ActionParsnip> zipper: use tab to complete names, linux is hugely case sensitive
[11:02] <jo_> hello all gurus, could you help me on dual boot installation please?
[11:02] <zipper> ActionParsnip: oh dear i am kinda lost here
[11:02] <llutz> SauLus: can you unzip that .odt?
[11:02] <Changeofheart> ActionParsnip: THANK YOU :) !
[11:03] <ActionParsnip> zipper: lets do it the REAL easy way. What is the FULL path to the mpeg file, including its name?
[11:03] <SauLus> llutz: "zipfile corrupt"

[11:06] <koichirose> hello. I'm having problems setting the theme on Ubuntu 10.04. I'm choosing Human Clearlooks. Everything changes except nautilus windows (which are clearlooks, so all grey). How do I solve this?
[11:06] <MrChris> Hello, I need to install Apache Portable Runtime. Does anyone know what the package is caled?
[11:07] <zipper> ActionParsnip: so for my output file will be the mp3 that is gona be saved at right?
[11:07] <oCean_> SauLus: you checked your ~/.openoffice/3/user/backup directory, right? Also checked in "temp" instead of backup?
[11:07] <SauLus> llutz: you are my personal hero for today: unzip -ff mybrokenfile.odt fixedfile.odt; openoffice can then restore the fixed file yay!!! oCean_ ty again as well
[11:08] <oCean_> SauLus: yay!
[11:08] <ActionParsnip> zipper: yes, something like ~/out.mp3    will do
[11:08] <Roland> my numpad started moving the mouse... how to stop that?
[11:08] <llutz> MrChris: libapr1
[11:08] <zipper> ActionParsnip: ffmpeg -i /media/Hout1/MPEGAV/AVSEQ01.DAT -f mp3 output_file.mp3
[11:08] <SauLus> oCean_: the stupid thing is that openoffice does not create backups by default.
[11:08] <Sunbaby> MrChris,  apt-get install libapr1-dev
[11:08] <zipper> ActionParsnip: so if i wanna save it in my desktop how should i put my output file as?
[11:08] <TaEs> anybodyyy??
[11:08] <Sunbaby> * To install Apache Portable Runtime (APR) development headers:
[11:08] <Sunbaby> Please run apt-get install libapr1-dev as root.
[11:08] <llutz> Sunbaby: why -dev?
[11:08] <oCean_> SauLus: be sure to enable the backups :)
[11:09] <ActionParsnip> TaEs: try adding the boot option: i8024 reset   may help
[11:09] <TaEs> how?
[11:09] <iamm> hi guys,, i'm close to "reality" after daysssss of troubleshooting  wifi, almost giving up. noww... i was able to detect wireless SSID but can't connect to it..
[11:09] <ActionParsnip> zipper: ~/Desktop/out.mp3    is one way
[11:09] <TaEs> :)
[11:09] <zipper> ActionParsnip: ffmpeg -i /media/Hout1/MPEGAV/AVSEQ01.DAT -f mp3 ~/Desktop/out.mp3 like this?
[11:10] <TaEs> [ActionParsnip] i´v got a little bit idea, but no too much
[11:10] <iamm> does anyone know how to fix this..
[11:10] <ActionParsnip> TaEs: gksudo gedit /etc/default/grub     find this line: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"    and change it to: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash i8024 reset"
[11:10] <ActionParsnip> TaEs: save the new file, close gedit and run: sudo update-grub
[11:10] <TaEs> all rigth
[11:10] <iamm> i'm quite extra careful now of installing blahs and blehs deb packages.. i'm close....
[11:10] <TaEs> and restart
[11:10] <ActionParsnip> zipper: i dont think it will work with DAT files
[11:10] <ActionParsnip> TaEs: sure
[11:11] <ActionParsnip> oops
[11:11] <TaEs> thx
[11:11] <ActionParsnip> TaEs: the option is 8024.reset
[11:11] <TaEs> let me see
[11:11] <ActionParsnip> oops
[11:11] <zipper> ActionParsnip: then how do i convert dat files to mp3?
[11:11] <ActionParsnip> i8024.reset
[11:11] <dsirijus> is there a way to switch to particular window in ubuntu?
[11:11] <ubuntu_linux> hi all
[11:11] <MrChris> [20:09] <Sunbaby>  MrChris,  apt-get install libapr1-dev - Thanks Sunbaby for that :)
[11:11] <TaEs> i´v to put that comand, not more
[11:11] <ActionParsnip> ^ TaEs thats the option
[11:11] <TaEs> rigth?
[11:11] <Sunbaby> ;)
[11:11] <b0nn> way cool, ubuntu has decided to commit suicide
[11:11] <TaEs> yeah, ok
[11:11] <TaEs> i´m gonna try it without make a mistake
[11:11] <b0nn> there is no taskbar
[11:11] <ActionParsnip> TaEs: you could rip the dvd using acidrip then convert from there
[11:12] <llutz> MrChris:if you don't want to compile stuff yourself, you don't need libapr1-dev, use libapr1
[11:12] <b0nn> right clicking on the screen produces nothing
[11:12] <b0nn> what a pile of stinking sh*t
[11:12] <TaEs> [ActionParsnip] what??
[11:12] <ActionParsnip> b0nn: press ALT+F2 and type: gnome-panel   press enter
[11:12] <b0nn> ah
[11:12] <b0nn> wrong
[11:12] <zipper> ActionParsnip: http://linuxhelp.blogspot.com/2005/10/convert-vcd-avesqrtdat-file-into-mp3_04.html folo this step will do right?
[11:12] <ActionParsnip> TaEs: change te option to: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash i8024.reset"
[11:12] <b0nn> nothing comes up
[11:13] <ActionParsnip> b0nn: kindly change your attitude, its really not becomming
[11:13] <ActionParsnip> !panel | b0nn

[11:13] <ActionParsnip> b0nn: ^
[11:13] <b0nn> the terminal wont come up
[11:13] <b0nn> ^^^^

[11:32] <phlak_user> nicofs: did you manage to get the pin in correctly?
[11:32] <phlak_user> Green_: ps -fe|grep sshd
[11:32] <nicofs> @phlak: yes

[11:34] <phlak_user> nicofs: do you have enough credit on the SIM?

[11:35] <phlak_user> Green_: sudo /etc/init.d/ssh restart
[11:35] <nicofs> the thing is: this connection has worked before, out-of-the-box. and then it suddenly stopped...
[11:35] <phlak_user> Green_: ssh not sshd (sorry)
[11:35] <Ileden> well_laid_lawn: Hi! I'm back, and the problem persists. :)
[11:35] <Green_> ok restarted
[11:36] <phlak_user> nicofs: has it worked before on lucid?
[11:36] <ubuntu_linux> ActionParsnip: http://linux.softpedia.com/progDownload/HUAWEI-E220-Installer-Download-34846.html << will it works ?
[11:36] <MrChris> llutz: what are backports?
[11:36] <nicofs> yes...
[11:36] <Green_> phlak_user: still same error
[11:36] <phlak_user> Green_: now run the ps -fe to check again
[11:36] <Ileden> ActionParsnip: Hi! Thanks for the tips a few days ago (computer slowdown, you asked to reconfigure xorg, etc). Unfortunately they didn't help the problem.
[11:36] <ActionParsnip> ubuntu_linux: try it
[11:36] <well_laid_lawn> Ileden: bummer - it was just a thing to try
[11:36] <nicofs> May it be, that my modem isn't ttyUSB0 but perhaps something like ttyUSB1 and the manager adresses a non-existant device?
[11:36] <Ileden> Luckily, I've now managed to make the problem reporoducible!
[11:36] <ubuntu_linux> ActionParsnip: ok
[11:36] <ActionParsnip> Ileden: gah
[11:37] <well_laid_lawn> Ileden: how?
[11:37] <phlak_user> nicofs: try with wvdial first and then with NetworkManager so that you can isolate the issue
[11:37] <Green_> phlak_user: looks like /usr/sbin/sshd is on
[11:37] <phlak_user> nicofs: sudo wvdialconf should detect the modem device correctly
[11:37] <phlak_user> Green_: is this box and the putty machine on the same side of the network?
[11:37] <vishal1> Hi there
[11:37] <Green_> phlak_user: yes
[11:38] <phlak_user> !hi | vishal1
[11:38] <ActionParsnip> Ileden: what CPU / how much ram do you have?
[11:38] <mr_fribble> How do I check if pdo_mysql is installed properly and fully working on ubuntu?
[11:38] <nicofs> need to install first...
[11:38] <Green_> phlak_user: i have already connected to it, but couldn't connect since
[11:38] <vishal1> switched to Lucid
[11:38] <Ileden> well_laid_lawn, ActionParsnip: The problem is NOT tied to time, as I thought, but to the amount of windows I've opened (or similar). If I open something like 10 terminal windows the problem appears - and persists after I've closed them.
[11:38] <phlak_user> Green_: have you configured a firewall or done something new since then?
[11:38] <vishal1> without overwriting my Vista
[11:38] <Green_> phlak_user: nothing
[11:39] <Green_> phlak_user: just restarted the putty pc
[11:39] <vishal1> but Vista is now not accessible to me
[11:39] <ubuntu_linux> !info ntfsutils lucid
[11:39] <phlak_user> Green_: can you do a ssh from local machine and see if it connects?
[11:39] <Shvonder> Hellwolf06_: And what do want? You can make such large peace of file like you want. You have the file with size 700Mb. And I want split it in 699Mb and 1Mb. Oh.. Just make it the same size or at least without such big difference. (e.g. 500Mb and 200Mb)
[11:39] <vishal1> Maybe a grub problem
[11:39] <ubuntu_linux> !info ntfsutil lucid
[11:39] <abuayyoub> Hi, i have a question if someone can help me. I am runing an X64 for machine with Lucid, I instsalled the latest flash plugin and it works perfect with Chrome but if I run Firefox it tells me i need to update flash.
[11:39] <ubuntu_linux> !info ntfsutill lucid
[11:39] <vishal1> The partition can be seen
[11:39] <Green_> phlak_user: the putty machine is local
[11:39] <Ileden> ActionParsnip: 2GB of RAM iirc, processor power don't remember, but should be enough (usually floats around 5-10%).
[11:39] <phlak_user> Green_: the same machine as sshd
[11:40] <ActionParsnip> Ileden: good enough
[11:40] <ubuntu_linux> ActionParsnip: is ntfs read by default in lucid ?
[11:40] <well_laid_lawn> Ileden: since the mem usage is not the issue I am outta ideas sorry
[11:40] <ActionParsnip> ubuntu_linux: yes its readable by default and can be writable
[11:40] <Green_> phlak_user: yep, it connects
[11:40] <well_laid_lawn> Ileden: it does seem strange tho
[11:40] <vishal1> May I expect to have a reply>
[11:40] <red> Hey, how can I force install php5-xsl package without having to update other stuff?
[11:40] <Ileden> ActionParsnip: and the problem has only appeared after upgrade to lucid.
[11:40] <ubuntu_linux> ActionParsnip: thanks
[11:40] <phlak_user> !patience
[11:41] <ActionParsnip> Ileden: what video card do you have?
[11:41] <well_laid_lawn> vishal1: your prob was on too many lines to follow
[11:41] <Ileden> ActionParsnip: ATI Radeon 9200
[11:41] <Ileden> well_laid_lawn: It feels stange to me too, glad I'm not the only one :)
[11:41] <well_laid_lawn> heh
[11:41] <ActionParsnip> Ileden: if you use a Lucid live CD is it ok?
[11:42] <ActionParsnip> Ileden: you may have to reinstall the driver package you are using
[11:42] <Shvonder> red you have to use aptitude for this. Not Synaptic. In aptitude you can fix all package you need in installed version.
[11:42] <Ileden> ActionParsnip: yup, you suggested reinstalling the driver pack, and I did. didn't help.
[11:42] <ActionParsnip> Ileden: ok just getting up to speed ;)
[11:43] <Ileden> ActionParsnip: Also nothing in dmesg looks related.
[11:43] <phlak_user> Green_: netstat  -nlt should show you if ssh is listening on all interfaces
[11:43] <nicofs> now I'm confused... I've got a "huawei"-modem (which is the correct manufacturer) on (ttyUSB0), (ttyUSB2) and (ttyUSB4)
[11:43] <well_laid_lawn> Ileden: try the vesa driver - iirc the 9200 isn't supported anymore - read /var/log/Xorg.0.log to check that, it'll be near the top
[11:43] <Ileden> ActionParsnip: no problem! don't expect you to remmber every help case here :D
[11:43] <Green_> phlak_user: redownloaded putty and it seems to work now, thanks
[11:43] <vishal1> well_laid_lawn: Somebody previously told me not to open a private window
[11:43] <ActionParsnip> Ileden: true
[11:43] <phlak_user> nicofs: i generally get 7 ttyUSB
[11:43] <phlak_user> Green_: ah blame it on Mr Gates
[11:43] <nicofs> my mistake.. failed to read the last line...
[11:43] <Green_> hahaha
[11:43] <mr_fribble> How do I check if pdo_mysql is installed properly and fully working on ubuntu?
[11:44] <ActionParsnip> Ileden: all I can suggest is messing with xorg.conf and/or installing the xorg edgers ppa (possible risk with that)
[11:44] <vishal1> I agree, I take a little more to describe
[11:44] <Ileden> well_laid_lawn: what do I check from the log?
[11:44] <nicofs> it sais modem on /dev/ttyUSB0... so far that's ok
[11:44] <vishal1> Anyway
[11:44] <well_laid_lawn> vishal1: you just need to not use the enter button as punctuation - write the prob on one line pls
[11:44] <Ileden> ActionParsnip: what's the risk?
[11:44] <vishal1> Once again
[11:45] <well_laid_lawn> Ileden: when X loads the driver it lists the cards supported - if yours isn't in there it might be the issue
[11:45] <zipper> hi i just installed wine but i can't seem to install windows abled applications do i needa do any configuration?
[11:45] <phlak_user> nicofs: are you able to connect with wvdial?
[11:45] <vishal1> When I installed Lucid, Vista is not seen in the OS choice list
[11:45] <ActionParsnip> Ileden: no boot really, i think they include a rollback method
[11:45] <nicofs> erm... how do I do that?
[11:45] <NightlyUser> zipper: what are you trying to install?
[11:46] <ActionParsnip> Ileden: read the blurb: https://launchpad.net/~xorg-edgers/+archive/ppa
[11:46] <zipper> NightlyUser: this application called formatfactory
[11:46] <Ileden> well_laid_lawn: there's SOME radeon 9200 listed... how do I know if it matches mine. The one listed is "ATI Radeon 9200 5961 (AGP), ATI Radeon 9200 5962 (AGP),"

[11:47] <well_laid_lawn> vishal1: tried running   sudo update-grub?

[11:48] <NightlyUser> zipper: hmm, i think the guys at #winehq could help better

[11:49] <NightlyUser> MAC: autocad is not a linux application, you may be able to install it under wine
[11:49] <zipper> phlak_user: but we need wine to install it

[11:51] <MAC> Hello NightlyUser

[11:52] <vishal1> phlak_user: Its a Dell machine
[11:52] <Ileden> well_laid_lawn: Hmm, as I now found a way to reproduce the problem and clearly and nonsubjectively notice the effects, I should problaby write to the forums about it.
[11:53] <uLinux> How can I see tempatures of CPU, Motherboard, etc?
[11:53] <phlak_user> vishal1: dell has over 200 models of laptops and PCs

[11:53] <NightlyUser> !cad > NightlyUser
[11:53] <BlackFire> vishal1, go to synaptic package manager and type broadcom and check whether kernel- source is installed or not , if not installed it and then i think ur wifi  will work
[11:53] <well_laid_lawn> Ileden: I am thinking it could even be the monitors refresh rate or similar since yours is a unique prob
[11:54] <well_laid_lawn> Ileden: it should show the values used for them in the X log
[11:54] <vishal1> phlak_user: Sorry I'm chatting from a different PC and I dont racall the N/W card name
[11:54] <phlak_user> vishal1: oh ok
[11:55] <Ileden> well_laid_lawn: The weirdest thing is that it seems to be triggered - that is, once it activates it doesn't get any worse. ("worse" is a subjective measurement, though, so I might just be mistaken)

[12:09] <phlak_user> MAC: see my pm to you
[12:09] <pure_hate> Acorn, First thing to do is check it from the command line to make sure its just the browser

[12:09] <bencc> Callum__: thx
[12:09] <phlak_user> bencc: transmission

[12:12] <minjoo> how to make single-window-mode will be the default in gimp 2.7?
[12:12] <phlak_user> Acorn: or you can use w3m http://gmail.com
[12:12] <Slartibart> Is it possible to "snoop" what commands a program issue? PlayOnLinux is a gui for wine and issues some wine line when an app is chosen in gui. I'd really like to know what that line is..
[12:12] <augustl> why isn't it possible to install xen-utils in 10.04 server 64?
[12:12] <well_laid_lawn> phlak_user: as a link sure in a support post

[12:13] <Acorn> phlak_user, pure_hate: that worked fine
[12:14] <minjoo> how to make single-window-mode will be the default in gimp 2.7?
[12:14] <pure_hate> Acorn, ok so its your browser.
[12:14] <MAC> enough source to setup my freinds
[12:14] <phlak_user> minjoo: http://www.khattam.info/2010/03/30/howto-install-gimp-2-7-with-single-window-mode-on-ubuntu-lucid-lynx/
[12:14] <MAC> thanks
[12:14] <Ileden> Slartibart: I think you can dig those commands from PlayOnLinux itself without snooping. Not sure though.
[12:15] <augustl> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Xen is out of date - anyone know if it's being updated?
[12:15] <Slartibart> Ileden: Yeah? Any guessings about how?
[12:15] <Acorn> pure_hate: it's not working with w3m either
[12:15] <minjoo> phlak_user: thanks for helping but that is not.
[12:15] <EXp1r3d> summerbug, try to disable them and try
[12:15] <phlak_user> minjoo: ok sorry
[12:15] <pure_hate> Isnt there another browser in ubuntu like epiphany or something
[12:15] <pure_hate> try with that
[12:16] <phlak_user> Acorn: do you have a firewall that blocks ports 995 etc?
[12:16] <NightlyUser> augustl: out of curiosity, have you tried using kvm instead of xen
[12:16] <pure_hate> Acorn, ^^
[12:16] <augustl> NightlyUser: no
[12:16] <augustl> I am convinced it can't be hard to install and run xen :)
[12:16] <augustl> hitting dead ends everywhere though
[12:16] <Ileden> Slartibart: not really. :(
[12:16] <NightlyUser> augustl: kvm is supported in the linux kernel by default
[12:17] <Acorn> phlak_user, pure_hate: I just have a router. I have no problems accessing google from windows7 on the same computer
[12:17] <NightlyUser> !kvm | augustl
[12:17] <augustl> I want to use xen, though
[12:17] <Slartibart> Ileden: Darned.. Thanks, though
[12:17] <phlak_user> Acorn: i meant on the same computer; have you setup any firewall rules using ufw etc?
[12:17] <augustl> there are packages for it - ubuntu-xen-server - but they don't even install on a plain ubuntu server 10.04 setup
[12:17] <NightlyUser> !xen | augustl
[12:17] <augustl> makes no sense
[12:17] <Acorn> phlak_user: no, it's a fresh install
[12:18] <Acorn> phlak_user, pure_hate
[12:18] <augustl> NightlyUser: unfortunately, that wiki page is out of date =/
[12:18] <Acorn> phlak_user, pure_hate: oops, sorry.. is there maybe a way to log what is happening when I try to log into gmail?
[12:18] <phlak_user> Acorn: are you able to run either wireshark or tcpdump?
[12:18] <Ileden> Slartibart: you're welcome. Sorry I don't know how to help more, I found the playonlinux system rather confusing myself :)
[12:18] <NightlyUser> augustl: sorry, i only use virtualbox (i'm rather a novice)
[12:18] <pure_hate> Acorn, The fire wall wouldnt matter since its a dynamic connection + its web mail. That would only matter if it was a client
[12:19] <augustl> http://packages.ubuntu.com/lucid/ubuntu-xen-desktop
[12:19] <Acorn> phlak_user: should I install one of those programs?
[12:19] <augustl> the xen-tools package is not available
[12:19] <phlak_user> Acorn: tcpdump should be installed by default but you need to be able to decipher
[12:20] <MrChris> I am still getting: "configure: error: APR-util version 1.3.0 or later is required"
[12:20] <Acorn> phlak_user: hmm, so what do you think is the best route to take then? :/
[12:20] <pure_hate> Acorn, its probably as simple as your browser is not allowing https, your firewall has nothing to do with accessing web mail
[12:20] <Ileden> Slartibart: also, as far as I understand, playonlinux may also create a separate installation of wine for each game (for example an older version) to get them to work, so simply adding some options to regular wine command might not do the trick since the game might require an older version of wine to work. This is guesswork, though.
[12:21] <nemesis> hi, im having troubles with my laptop's wireless
[12:21] <NightlyUser> !wireless | nemesis
[12:21] <Acorn> pure_hate: oh right! that's a really good thought! How would I check the neccessary things are there to use https?
[12:22] <nemesis> Night_Elf, i already read that
[12:22] <Slartibart> Ileden: I think you're right. But I think there has got to be a way to run wine without pol. I just need to know how pol starts wine..
[12:22] <augustl> even http://tx.downloads.xensource.com/downloads/docs/user/is out of date, haha
[12:22] <nemesis> NightlyUser, ive read that, the wireless driver works, but the wireless scan does not show up any networks

[12:44] <rocket16> nicofs: Sorry, just select one workspace name, and then ,after about 2 seconds, click on it again (on the name) and then, change it, and hit enter
[12:44] <liuchong> Hi,I installed debian themes on my debian ,but still the pannel not black ,which more I should install?
[12:44] <soreau> liuchong: This is #ubuntu. Perhaps you want #debian?
[12:44] <rocket16> liuchong: I believe, you can simply manually set the colour of the Panels to black
[12:45] <liuchong> soreau, I added ubuntu source list
[12:45] <rocket16> !debian  | liuchong
[12:45] <zetheroo> I ran powertop on one of my machines and it suggested I enable USB standby by hitting U ... now my mouse is no longer working ... how do I revert this?
[12:45] <MrChris> soreau yes and 1.2.12
[12:45] <liuchong> ...
[12:45] <Slart> zetheroo: reboot might be the easiest way.. I'm not sure if powertop makes it permanent
[12:46] <soreau> MrChris: Ah there is the problem. Which version of ubuntu are you using?
[12:46] <zetheroo> Slart: ok will try
[12:46] <MrChris> 9.04
[12:46] <nicofs> thanks...
[12:46] <soreau> MrChris: Its telling you, your version of apr-utils is too old
[12:46] <MetalStormy> join #ubuntu-de-offtopic
[12:48] <zetheroo> Slart: rebooting worked :) Thanks
[12:48] <soreau> MrChris: ubuntu 9.10 and 10.04 have an updated version of this package
[12:48] <Slart> zetheroo: you're welcome
[12:48] <MrChris> ok, how do i upgrade?
[12:48] <MrChris> apt-get ubuntu-upgrade?
[12:48] <soreau> MrChris: Upgrade what? your ubuntu?
[12:48] <zetheroo> apt-get update
[12:48] <MrChris> yeah, the install
[12:49] <zetheroo> ahh ...
[12:49] <soreau> MrChris: I would recommend to install fresh instead of a potentially problematic upgrade
[12:49] <zetheroo> MrChris: does it not ask you to upgrade when you go to Update Manager?
 reboot may be @v@?
[12:49] <MrChris> soreau: i cant do a fresh install - it is a vps
[12:49] <MrChris> have to upgrade
[12:49] <zetheroo> wildbat: referring to the powertop issue?
[12:49] <wildbat> zetheroo, ya ;p
[12:50] <soreau> MrChris: But it is possible, you can update this single package by adding 9.10 sources, upgrading the package then removing the sources before your system notices
[12:50] <zetheroo> wildbat: yes a reboot did the trick
[12:50] <soreau> MrChris: of course this could break it now or later
[12:50] <ubuntu_linux> hi i'm back ActionParsnip
[12:50] <MrChris> :/
[12:50] <soreau> MrChris: but if you want to upgrade ubuntu, I would use update-manager
[12:51] <zetheroo> MrChris: like soreau says, in your case it would be much better advised to perform a fresh install ... is there really no way?
[12:51] <soreau> MrChris: what are you trying to build and why, btw?
[12:51] <MrChris> again, i cant - only ssh
[12:51] <Killa> got a mind blowing question for anyone that is good with software raid5
[12:52] <wildbat> !anyone | Killa \
[12:52] <Slart> MrChris, soreau: why not just download the package from packages.ubuntu.com (wget will do that from a command line) and install it using gdebi .. seems easier than flipping sources back and forth
[12:52] <MrChris> i want o host a website on my vps. it uses php files, and i need to install php for that, and for that i need the latest apache and for that i need the latest apr.
[12:52] <Slart> Killa: yes, it's bad for many things and no, it's not as safe as most people think =)
[12:52] <soreau> Slart: Because it has a fair amount of deps so I dont know what all it will want to pull in
[12:53] <soreau> Slart: here it pulled in a dozen or more packages
[12:53] <phlak_user> MrChris: didnt the php that came with 9.04 work with the apache that came with it?
[12:53] <Slart> soreau: well.. if it starts pulling in lots of dependencies you'll probably end up upgrading your whole machine anyways
[12:53] <zetheroo> why does it seem the dpkg is so much slower in Lucid than in Karmic?
[12:54] <soreau> Slart: Yea, I would try to just add jaunty repos and see if you could get away without too much trauma
[12:54] <augustl> is every single guide on the wiki outdated? =P https://help.ubuntu.com/community/KVM/Installation is outdated too (as well as the xen article)
[12:54] <rocket16> zetheroo: Slower? Do you refer to any specific command like: sudo dpkg -i *.deb ?
[12:55] <MrChris> no
[12:55] <MrChris> its not on there by default.
[12:55] <Slart> soreau: well, good luck.. I think you're going to need it =)
[12:55] <soreau> Slart: Im not the one with the problem ;)
[12:55] <mohamed> hello
[12:55] <zetheroo> rocket16: well actually it's more in relation to installing software across the board in Lucid ... through cli, Synaptic or otherwise ... in Karmic it was so fast ...
[12:55] <Killa> Here is the problem http://richardm.pastebin.com/ndU1TW19
[12:56] <Slart> soreau: ah..that's right.. well.. you can have the luck anyways.. no need for a refund =)
[12:56] <soreau> Slart: heh
[12:56] <mohamed> i have installed linux after windows and i lost my windows boot
[12:56] <soreau> ! grub2 | mohamed
[12:57] <mohamed> no the problem is not with GRUB@
[12:57] <mohamed> 2
[12:57] <Ileden> well_laid_lawn: More evidence: The slowdown is replicable with live ubuntu 10.04.
[12:57] <MrChris> I am upgrading from 9.04 to 9.10 as we speak
[12:57] <mohamed> it shows and option to use Ubuntu or Windows
[12:58] <Ileden> well_laid_lawn: and it really does seem to be directly associated with display operations.
[12:58] <mohamed> but after i choose windows it does not work and takes me back to the list to choose linux
[12:58] <soreau> MrChris: If you are feeling adventurous, you could upgrade all the way to 10.04 while you arae at it
[12:58] <MrChris> how do i do that?
[12:58] <well_laid_lawn> Ileden: does the live cd use the radeon driver too?
[12:58] <MrChris> O.o
[12:58] <soreau> MrChris: just reboot after each dist-upgrade upgrade
[12:59] <soreau> well_laid_lawn: yea
[12:59] <Galerien> MrChris: If you do so, don't expects for your graphic card to work
[12:59] <sleightofhand84> lol
[12:59] <MrChris> why is that?
[12:59] <Ileden> well_laid_lawn: especially switching between windows, creating new windows, closing windows. the more different layout stuff on the window (e.g. thunderbird with multiple display panes), the slower the operation appears to be.
[12:59] <mohamed> how can i reactivate my windows to work
[12:59] <well_laid_lawn> soreau: ?
[12:59] <sleightofhand84> are u seriously asking that?
[12:59] <MrChris> yes i am
[12:59] <Ileden> well_laid_lawn: how do I find out... there seems to be no xorg.conf
[12:59] <soreau> MrChris: because upgrades are problematic. With going to 10.04, it may install the nvidia driver even if you dont have an nvidia card
[12:59] <sleightofhand84> **is first time on ubuntu channel, is this noob central?**
[13:00] <MrChris> :o
[13:00] <soreau> well_laid_lawn: The radeon driver is in use by default even in a live session
[13:00] <lolzed> hey guys,what are the minimum requirements for ubuntu?
[13:00] <well_laid_lawn> Ileden: normally that shows in top - the window opening stuff
[13:00] <MrChris> shit, not good...
[13:00] <MrChris> its a vps
[13:00] <Pici> !requirements | lolzed
[13:00] <lolzed> thanks :)
[13:00] <well_laid_lawn> Ileden: the X log
[13:00] <augustl> is it possible to uninstall the packages listed in "The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required"? I.e. orphans?
[13:00] <soreau> MrChris: No big deal, just remove it
[13:00] <MrChris> hmm...
[13:00] <MrChris> 54% downloaded
[13:01] <mr_fribble> How do I check if there is a problem with either PDO, PDO_MySQL or MySQL?
[13:01] <Slart> augustl: yes,   sudo apt-get autoremove      with or without --purge as needed
[13:01] <Lefantomedurezo> Hello, is there a way to close gnome-panel and to prevent him to launch again?
[13:01] <soreau> augustl: apt-get autoremove

[13:01] <augustl> Slart, soreau: thanks!
[13:01] <Galerien> Lefantomedurezo: what do you mean exactly ?
[13:01] <vic20gmr_[lucid]> i get a dialog sying that "power manager" isnt done with something, do i want to log out anyway, or let it finish
[13:01] <daedaluz> gaah, pulseaudio skipping. I'm newb to Ubuntu and GNOME, how to revert to ALSA?
[13:01] <vic20gmr_[lucid]> any1 know wut this means?
[13:01] <Galerien> (and feel free to /query me if you want to use French)
[13:01] <lolzed> i guess ill go with xubuntu then :)
[13:01] <MrChris> my bad...
[13:02] <MrChris> :(
[13:02] <Slart> vic20gmr_[lucid]: wait 10 secs or so.. then force it
[13:02] <vishpoison> well_laid_lawn: can you help me with a sh file?
[13:02] <Lefantomedurezo> Galerien: when I kill gnome-panel, it close but it will be opened again
[13:02] <mohamed> how do i install xfce on ubuntu
[13:02] <mr_fribble> How do I check if there is a problem with either PDO, PDO_MySQL or MySQL? A php script is not running on my ubuntu but works on another person computer so the problem is the drivers. But I'm not sure how to check them.
[13:02] <lolzed> although i heard sometimes xubuntu uses more than ubuntu?
[13:02] <Galerien> Lefantomedurezo: and feel free to /query me if you want to use French
[13:02] <Slart> vic20gmr_[lucid]: I don't know of anything vital that the power manager needs to do while closing down the machine
[13:02] <lolzed> resources
[13:02] <well_laid_lawn> vishpoison: why ask me -try in #bash pls
[13:02] <vic20gmr_[lucid]> it goes away if i wait, but y is it appearing in the first place and/or how can i keep it from being a problem in the first place?
[13:02] <Ileden> well_laid_lawn: yup, it's radeon driver as soreau said. LoadModule: "radeon"
[13:02] <wildbat> mohamed, you overwrote windows boot sector with grub ....
[13:02] <MrChris> download complete
[13:02] <vic20gmr_[lucid]> this occurs wen im booting
[13:02] <MrChris> now upgrading
[13:02] <vishpoison> well_laid_lawn: oh okie
[13:02] <Galerien> Lefantomedurezo: I don't know exactly but I would say that you need to stop a service...
[13:02] <MrChris> fingers crossed :p
[13:02] <vic20gmr_[lucid]> in initial log in screen
[13:03] <Slart> vic20gmr_[lucid]: I have no idea.. perhaps it's talking to something that isn't listening.. so it has to time-out
[13:03] <well_laid_lawn> Ileden: to try and not get the issue I would try the vesa driver to see if it is the graphics or not
[13:04] <vic20gmr_[lucid]> aside from a reinstall, any ideas how i might go abput diagnosing and remedying this?
[13:04] <Ileden> well_laid_lawn: is it activated by changing "radeon" to "vesa" in xorg.conf?
[13:04] <Galerien> Lefantomedurezo: try "service gdm stop"
[13:05] <well_laid_lawn> Ileden: yep and keep that line we commented well, commented :]
[13:05] <lolzed> question: xcfe/lxde installed on ubuntu is the same(except for bundled programs) are the same with xubuntu/lubunty?
[13:05] <Ileden> well_laid_lawn: ok. :)
[13:05] <Galerien> lolzed: neally... I have ubuntu with kde and I can use both without any problem
[13:06] <CuriosTiger> I haven't noticed any difficulty running either gnome or kde apps in xfce/xubuntu
[13:06] <lolzed> so that answer is?
[13:06] <CuriosTiger> never tried lxde though. xfwm is fast enough for me :)
[13:06] <CuriosTiger> lolzed: So the answer is, you should be fine
[13:06] <luist_> hey... how do i check if i have a damager RAM or some other hardware thing?
[13:06] <vic20gmr_[lucid]> i have a seperate question, if i were to use an older ver of ubuntu, wud i get older prop fxglr drivers?
[13:06] <djoef> Hi, I am looking for a way to generate a timeline with scientific work. meaning, I want to be able to filer e.g. on author. It would be nice if when I click on a publication (icon) I can get to the abstract etc. Is there anyone here that knows a package or (online) service for this purpose ?
[13:07] <lolzed> its an old laptop
[13:07] <lolzed> i tried lubuntu,i get an error,so i was suggested to try ubuntu
[13:07] <Galerien> lolzed: old laptop I would say try xubuntu
[13:07]  * CuriosTiger likes xubuntu even on his new laptop
[13:08] <lolzed> xubuntu=/= xcfe ubuntu ?
[13:08] <mr_fribble> Hi, a php script is not running on my ubuntu but works on another person computer so the problem is the drivers that is uses (PDO, PDO_MySQL or MySQL). How do I check if there are any problems with them?
[13:08] <Galerien> lolzed: yes
[13:08] <lolzed> resources wise
[13:08] <Galerien> exactly
[13:08] <lolzed> great
[13:08] <Galerien> and if you need all the power you can get, try Arch with openbox
[13:08] <lolzed> laptop has 239(or so) mb of ram
[13:08] <lolzed> i dunno if ubuntu would cut it
[13:09] <DelphiWorld> hi all
[13:09] <DelphiWorld> how do i convert my wav file to mp3 using shell?
[13:09] <Galerien> lolzed: a bit low yes...
[13:09] <atcho> DelphiWorld: maybe lame
[13:09] <lolzed> so xubuntu all the way?
[13:09] <daedaluz> Galerien: you misspelled Gentoo
[13:09] <Galerien> lolzed:  My friend with
[13:09] <luist_> hey im trying to mount a windows partition that couldnt startup, but it says: fuse: mount failed: Device or resource busy
[13:10] <DelphiWorld> atcho: thank you
[13:10] <Walex> lolzed: Xubuntu looks more like it. GNOME can be tuned down to use less memory, but it is not so easy.
[13:10] <lolzed> :S
[13:10] <Galerien> lolzed: my friend with arch and openbox uses 70 mo at startup...
[13:10] <Walex> Galerien: yes, but what matters is what happens when you start a few windows and in particular browsers
[13:10] <lolzed> i don't want to waste my time,but im not sure if i get xubuntu,i might get an error same with lubuntu
[13:11] <Walex> lolzed: liveCD?
[13:11] <lolzed> yes
[13:11] <luist_> hey im trying to mount a windows partition that couldnt startup, but it says: fuse: mount failed: Device or resource busy.. how can i solve that?
[13:11]  * Walex used to run KDE3.5 on his 256MB 800MHZ PIII laptop, and it was fairly decent.
[13:11] <Walex> luist_ probably already mounted, check '/proc/mounts'
[13:11] <harjot> Is it possible to use a windows rdp invitation help with ubuntu

[13:14] <lolzed> "failed due to unknown user id (0)" <- anyone knows what it means?
[13:14] <Ileden> well_laid_lawn: well, I'm now in "low graphics mode". Upon bootup, I got a notice about entering low graphics mode, with the following errors listed: "(EE) VESA: Kernel modsetting driver in use, refusing to load" "(EE) No devices detected"

[13:17] <Psy-T> Hmm, youtube is causing some problems for me again. When I go to a youtube video, it starts loading, but then firefox (or konquerer) freezes.
[13:17] <kenny73> hi
[13:17] <Ileden> well_laid_lawn: I gather I'm not using the vesa driver right now, though. That was what the low graphics stuff was about, right?
[13:17] <fuxy> try reinstall forefox
[13:17] <well_laid_lawn> lolzed: that there is no user 0 which is normally root - what is it you're running?
[13:18] <Psy-T> fuxy: the problem also happens in konquerer, though.
[13:18] <well_laid_lawn> Ileden: it said vesa in the error
[13:18] <Psy-T> hence doesn't seem like it'd be firefox's fault.
[13:18] <DelphiWorld> for the guy that say lame
[13:18] <DelphiWorld> thank you a lot
[13:18] <Ileden> well_laid_lawn: yup, but it couldn't load it, or something like that?
[13:18] <DelphiWorld> is working!
[13:19] <fuxy> Go in other web where is video and try.
[13:19] <well_laid_lawn> Ileden: if it couldn't find a display it wouldn't run - did it drop you to a tty?
 DelphiWorld: maybe lame
[13:19] <lolzed> i825

[13:19] <kenny73> anyone knows how to register a nick?
[13:19] <Ileden> well_laid_lawn: here's the relevant part of xorg.0.log http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/a7zNJehK
[13:19] <lolzed> i run live cd
[13:19] <Psy-T> Just went and tried google video. It froze too.
[13:19] <soreau> ! register | kenny73
[13:19] <Pici> !register > kenny73
[13:19] <lolzed> i try installing it
[13:19] <lolzed> then it gives that
[13:20] <kenny73> ! register | kenny73
[13:20] <lolzed> it also does that when i try to run lubuntu from cd
[13:20] <Pici> kenny73: Please *read* the message from ubottu
[13:20] <Ileden> well_laid_lawn: nope, not in tty. I'm in this "low graphics mode", which is in fact not that bad looking (full colors, 1280x1024).

[13:20] <Pici> !enter | lolzed
[13:20] <Ileden> well_laid_lawn: in fact, I kinda prefer this to the jerkiness of the slowdown problem :D (not really a solution, though :) )
[13:20] <well_laid_lawn> Ileden: check the X log to see the driver yo're using for it pls
[13:21] <lolzed> sorry :(
[13:21] <soreau> Ileden: Parts of an X log are useless without the entire file. Can you please restate what problem you are having?
[13:21] <fuxy> Psy-T, try update
[13:21] <fuxy> maybe somthing wrong with that.
[13:21] <Psy-T> How, fuxy?
[13:22] <kenny73> sorry..i'm new to ubuntu
[13:22] <kenny73> just trying this out
[13:22] <fuxy> sudo apt-get update
[13:22] <lolzed> so anyone know why it gives the error?
[13:22] <Ileden> soreau: The actual problem is that I experience a major slowdown and jerkiness in window operations after opening "enough" windows. The problem persists after closing them I have ATI Radeon 9200 and I've used both the "ati" and "radeon" drivers.
[13:22] <daedaluz> Ileden, Radeon, there is you problem
[13:22] <Ileden> soreau: right now well_laid_lawn asked me to try "vesa" driver, but that booted up with reporting about "low graphics mode"
[13:22] <soreau> Ileden: ati is just a wrapper that selects radeon so its the same driver
[13:23] <Walex> Ileden: most likely not an X issue, but a memory/disk issue.
[13:23] <soreau> Ileden: fglrx the proprietary catalyst driver does not support your card at all
[13:23] <Ileden> Walex: I can find any problems with top. Or well, well_laid_lawn didn't see anything wrong with it.
[13:23] <soreau> Ileden: So, are you running compiz when this happens?
[13:23] <Ileden> soreau: happens both with or without compiz.
[13:23] <Pici> lolzed: Have you run the "Check CD for defects" test?
[13:24] <soreau> Ileden: How much vram does that card have?
[13:24] <Ileden> soreau: how do I tell?
[13:24] <soreau> Ileden: I dont have the command right off hand
[13:24] <Ileden> daedaluz: yea... but it worked just fine before upgrading to lucid.
[13:25] <soreau> Ileden: Can you reproduce the problem then check dmesg output to see if there are any interesting messages?
[13:25] <Ileden> soreau: I've tried, but nothing there seems relevant for the problem
[13:25] <Ileden> soreau: I can reproduce it when I want, so I could do that and pastebin the dmesg.
[13:25] <Talu> How to run files from cdrom?
[13:25] <soreau> Ileden: Another thing you can do is try the old driver without kms by specifying nomodeset as a kernel arg
[13:26] <soreau> Talu: What files?
[13:26] <kenny73> how to i list the other channels?
[13:26] <Psy-T> fuxy: the final message in the terminal was "Reading package lists... Done" after the apt-get update command. What next?
[13:26] <Talu> soreau: There is a setup.exe file i want to run
[13:26] <Ileden> soreau: everything was ok before I upgraded to lucid. also, the problem doesn't appear in this "low graphics mode" i'm in right now.
[13:26] <soreau> kenny73: You might want to try #freenode for irc-specific questions
[13:26] <Ileden> soreau: ok, I could try that. How do I do it?
[13:27] <well_laid_lawn> kenny73: type /list and look in the freenode tab
	lolzed: Have you run the "Check CD for defects" test? <-I'll try that,but could that be the problem?
[13:27] <soreau> Talu: exe files are a ms windoze executable format. You can run them in linux with wine
[13:27] <Talu>  soreau: I know that, duh... what i need is to run the setup.exe file as root trough terminal
[13:28] <soreau> Ileden: When you boot, at the grub splash screen, select your kernel then press e to edit, then on the kernel line after where it says ro quiet splash, append nomodeset
[13:28] <Ileden> soreau: ok, is that all?
[13:28] <soreau> Talu: You arent making any sense then
[13:28] <soreau> Ileden: yep
[13:28] <Ileden> soreau: ok, i'll do that.
[13:29] <soreau> Ileden: ctrl+x to boot after editing then it will be active only for that session to test
[13:29] <Talu> Does anyone know the command line for opening the Cdrom dir?
[13:29] <soreau> Talu: The questions you are asking are vague.  A cdrom can be mounted to any directory
[13:30] <fuxy> Psy-T, if still not working when you restart your computer. Try search on google. Look in all yours drivers,plugins and ... Maybe you don't have them.
[13:30] <Talu> soreau: I have a dvdrom in this laptop, i want to open the cd i have in it trough terminal... seriously how do i do that.
[13:30] <soreau> Talu: eject?
[13:30] <Talu> This channel sure is useless....
[13:31] <soreau> Talu: Look at the output of mount and see where its mounted to?
[13:31] <sipior> Talu: you get out what you put in, i suppose.
[13:31] <fuxy> Talu,  what you want to do? ...
[13:31] <tobiasz> for some reason flashplayer behaves MUCH better with Kubuntu than Ubuntu on my machine, any clues?
[13:31] <well_laid_lawn> Talu: you can't run an exe file through the terminal - but do   la /media   to find the cdrom folder
[13:31] <well_laid_lawn> Talu: you can't run an exe file through the terminal - but do   ls /media   to find the cdrom folder
[13:31] <well_laid_lawn> oops
[13:32] <Talu> well_laid_lawn: Thanks dude, atleast you were helpfull :P
[13:33] <well_laid_lawn> Talu: it is linux - you're free to do as you please with it :]
[13:34] <Talu> well_laid_lawn: Of course :P I have a problem though, wine says the setup.exe cant be opened because its not secure or something.
[13:34] <luist_> how can i see all my hardware stuff and check if theres something danified?
[13:34] <Talu> well_laid_lawn: wine blocks it.
[13:34] <well_laid_lawn> Talu: never used wine - there is the #winehq channel for that
[13:34] <Ileden> soreau: well I edited the line and pressed 'b' to boot. ctrl+x didn't do anything at that screen.
[13:34] <soreau> Ileden: Oh
[13:35] <Talu> well_laid_lawn: aha, thanks!
[13:35] <soreau> Ileden: Can you show the output of dmesg|grep modeset ?
[13:35] <hellyeah> hey
[13:35] <hellyeah> my file 2.4 mb i have to reduce the size less than 2 mb
[13:35] <hellyeah> is there any application or extraction technique to do that
[13:35] <soreau> hellyeah: Is it already compressed?
[13:36] <hateball> hellyeah: rightclick, compress
[13:36] <Galerien> hellyeah: compress it, zip, 7zip, rar...
[13:36] <hellyeah> it reduce 2.1
[13:36] <hellyeah> 2.1mb
[13:36] <Ileden> soreau: bootup seems slower, and the desktop has disappeared to black. :)
[13:36] <soreau> Ileden: heh, I guess you at least did it right then
[13:36] <hellyeah> i have file that is not compressed and that is compressed
[13:36] <Ileden> soreau: :D
[13:37] <Ileden> soreau: dmesg has two lines with that grep

[13:37] <luist_> how can i see all my hardware stuff and check if theres something danified?
[13:37] <hellyeah> pls help
[13:37] <Galerien> hiredgoon: try differents compression
[13:37] <Ileden> soreau: yup. but compiz in R-E-A-L-L-Y slow
[13:37] <devi> hi everybody :)
[13:38] <devi> my screen flickers.. what can i do?
[13:38] <soreau> Ileden: Well I guess you can either file a bug report or ask in #radeon or both
[13:38] <Galerien> hellyeah: try differents compression
[13:38] <hellyeah> i try tar.gz tar.xz .bz tar.bz
[13:38] <hellyeah> :D
[13:38] <marcel01> devi: download new drivers
[13:38] <Ileden> soreau: I'm not sure I'm skilled enough to write an extensive enough bug report about this. :-/
[13:39] <Galerien> hellyeah: do you have pictures in you file?
[13:39] <devi> marcel01: like which ones?
[13:39] <hellyeah> yes
[13:39] <hellyeah> i have a lot of picture
[13:39] <hellyeah> in pdf document
[13:39] <marcel01> devi: garphic card drivers
[13:39] <hellyeah> almost 30 picture
[13:39] <Galerien> Then try to reduce the big onces
[13:39] <Galerien> Then try to reduce the big onces
[13:39] <devi> marcel01: and where can i do that?
[13:39] <devi> marcel01: in the software centre?
[13:39] <soreau> Ileden: Its not too hard, just say steps to reproduce, 1) radeon 9200 2) Lucid 10.04 3) Open x amount of windows and fail.
[13:40] <luist_> how can i see all my hardware stuff and check if theres something danified?
[13:40] <marcel01> devi: no, not in the software center. you can do it via apt-get if official drivers are avaliable. -> google
[13:40] <Ileden> soreau: where should I report this? at bugs.launchpad.net?
[13:40] <soreau> ! bugs | Ileden
[13:41] <devi> marcel01: what's apt-get?
[13:41] <Ileden> soreau: ok thanks.
[13:41] <mofaph_> hello there, how to find chrome cookie file? i am sorry, i'm not good at English, i am Chinese.
[13:41] <allquixotic> Hi -- my Mac Mini 3,1 gets stuck trying to boot kernel 2.6.32-22. I tried generic and preempt flavors; I tried passing `noapic' and `noacpi' (separately and together); I took a picture of the screen when disabling the splash screen. It hangs very early in the kernel. This is vanilla Lucid + post-install update-manager, no proprietary drivers. http://tiyukquellmalz.org/ubuntu_hang.jpg
[13:41] <MrChris> devi: apt-get is a packaging system command
[13:42] <fschuessler> Kennt sich hier jemand mit "traceroute" aus?
[13:42] <devi> marcel01: oh dear, that again...
[13:42] <devi> marcel01: I have to go to terminals?
[13:42] <marcel01> lol, thats the main source for programs in linux
[13:42] <LjL> !de | fschuessler
[13:42] <simplexio> allquixotic: did you allready tried remove "quiet" option in grub boo options, t would help to see where problem is
[13:42] <marcel01> yes, but first google it.
[13:42] <marcel01> devi
[13:42] <Myrth> hi, i want to upgrade ubuntu on my server to lucid, but want to leave php 5.2 installed, i understand that i need to use pinning in /etc/apt/preferences, but it doesn't seem to affect dist-upgrade..
[13:42] <panfist> is it possible for a python program to trigger a gnome environment sound?
[13:42] <fschuessler> sorry^^
[13:43] <allquixotic> simplexio: If you even read my post you'd see that I posted a screenshot with that removed.
[13:43] <Ileden> soreau: hmm, it seems I can't reproduce the slowdown now that I turned compiz off.
[13:43] <mofaph_> hello there, how to find chrome cookie file? i am sorry, i'm not good at English, i am Chinese.
[13:43] <Ileden> soreau: what did that kernel option do? I should probably include it in the bug report...
[13:43] <Psy-T> Okay, a reboot got the youtube videos to work for me again, but without audio.
[13:43] <soreau> Ileden: Thats not surprising. Its still a radeon driver bug most likely though
[13:43] <devi> marcel01: ok... so what should I enter in google.. I tried graphic driver and now how do i choose? nvidia?
[13:44] <tobiasz> for some reason flashplayer behaves MUCH better with Kubuntu than Ubuntu on my machine, any clues? Perfect performance in Konqueror
[13:44] <soreau> Ileden: The kernel option disables kernel modesetting or kms. This means it will use the old method of the radeon driver, user modesetting
[13:44] <Ileden> soreau: also, is it safe to keep there? I can well live without compiz.
[13:44] <marcel01> devi: you must find out the name/type of your graphics card first.
[13:44] <soreau> Ileden: Sure, if its working
[13:44] <marcel01> mofaph_, do you want to clear it?
[13:44] <Psy-T> I guess the stuff I wrote might've disappeared because of the ping timeout.
[13:44] <simplexio> allquixotic: seems to hang when enabling second core. i have seen that bug before
[13:45] <devi> marcel01: ah ok... hold on a minute and I#ll try...
[13:45] <Psy-T> A reboot got the youtube videos to work for me again, but without audio. I'm guessing it's trying to output to either ALSA or pulseaudio, but I need it to output to jACK.
[13:45] <Ileden> soreau: seems ok. some artefacts when moving windows around, but nothing that would make it tough to use, like before.
[13:45] <mofaph_> marcel01, no, i want to check it out.
[13:45] <hellyeah> hey pls help
[13:45] <hellyeah> :D
[13:45] <marcel01> mofaph_, ok, will have a look
[13:45] <Psy-T> Where can I tell firefox/flash to output sound to jACK rather than ALSA/pulseaudio?
[13:46] <hellyeah> If i convert pdf to djvu
[13:46] <mofaph_> marcel01, thanks
[13:46] <hellyeah> file size reduce ?
[13:46] <tobiasz> for some reason flashplayer behaves MUCH better with Kubuntu than Ubuntu on my machine, any clues? Perfect performance in Konqueror
[13:46] <Ileden> soreau: hey, thanks a lot for this! Sure, I don't have compiz so it's still buggy (because before lucid compiz was working perfectly too), but this at least makes it possible to use the system without constant restarting.
[13:47] <marcel01> mofaph_, sorry, couldnt find that. try to look in your settings
[13:47] <soreau> Ileden: Cool, at least you have something usable for now :)
[13:47] <hellyeah> how can i convert pdf to djvu
[13:47] <devi> marcel01: so this is what happened in the terminal: http://paste.ubuntu.com/440848/
[13:48] <Guest6483> why won't xchat systray notification icon be installed?
[13:48] <mofaph_> marcel01, how?
[13:48] <soreau> Ileden: TBH, I think it sounds like some resource issue. Perhaps a newer radeon card will not have this issue (my 9600 works great)
[13:48] <NightlyUser> hellyeah: pdf is a file type, dejavu is a font
[13:48] <devi> marcel01: or how do i find out my type of card?
[13:48] <mofaph_> marcel01, i guess google chrome installed in /opt/google/chrome
[13:49] <hellyeah> hmm
[13:49] <Guest6483> why won't xchat systray notification icon install?
[13:49] <hellyeah> i have to reduce file size
[13:49] <hellyeah> does someone have suggestion
[13:49] <b0n1> hi, after the update to 10.04 ubuntu doesnt know my printer anymore
[13:50] <b0n1> but in 9.04 it recognized it automatically
[13:50] <UT8F> why ubuntu copy files sou slow?
[13:50] <NightlyUser> hellyeah: file size of what exactly?
[13:50] <hellyeah> pdf file
[13:50] <hellyeah> i have pdf file bigger then 2.0 mb
[13:51] <devi> marcel01: did u see my last 2 msgs?
[13:51] <hellyeah> but my school system doesnt accept bigger then 2 mb file
[13:51] <hellyeah> i have to reduce file size
[13:51] <b0n1> how can i recognize my printer?
[13:51] <NightlyUser> hellyeah: what is in the pdf?
[13:51] <hellyeah> my thesis
[13:52] <jbendotnet> am trying to set up svnserve to give auth'd access to repos on one server to another, without requiring a password each time (eg, not svn+ssh)
[13:52] <NightlyUser> hellyeah: so just text?
[13:52] <jbendotnet> followed http://odyniec.net/articles/ubuntu-subversion-server/
[13:52] <hellyeah> no text and pics
[13:52] <hellyeah> almost 30 pics
[13:52] <jbendotnet> no matter what I do to /usr/local/svn/repos/reponame/conf/svnserve.conf I always get svn: No access allowed to this repository
[13:53] <NightlyUser> hellyeah: what format are the pics in?
[13:53] <jbendotnet> if I allow anon-access it works
[13:53] <hellyeah> png
[13:53] <olivier__> slt
[13:53] <jbendotnet> ahh, wonder if password file can't be read
[13:53] <jbendotnet> !
[13:53] <aussiegeek> how do i force xorg to use a different configuration. its pushing my tv too far
[13:53] <hellyeah> my pic format is png
[13:53] <Ileden> soreau: the weird thing is that it only appeared at lucid. everything was working great before. so it can't be a complete incompatibility issue...
[13:54] <devi> ok, since marcel01 seems to have abandoned me... can anyone else help me with the flickering on my screen... getting a graphic driver or knowing what type of graphics card I have?
[13:54] <NightlyUser> hellyeah: couldn't you ask to submit your thesis in 2 parts?
[13:54] <phillyj> i want to sent PATH for a file located in /home/owner/Downloads/lammps-1May10 so would my command be PATH=$PATH://home/owner/.....?
[13:54] <b0n1> does someone know anything about printer recognition ?
[13:54] <hellyeah> okey i sent a mail to my supervisor
[13:55] <hellyeah> he said we incresase the file size
[13:55] <LjL> phillyj: err, why would you do that?
[13:55] <hellyeah> i guess i will submit
[13:55] <soreau> Ileden: Its a high probability that something probably changed in the driver since they have done nearly a complete overhaul o the driver with kms. Ums should set back to the old way of doing things but there is also changes still being made in these code paths
[13:55] <NightlyUser> hellyeah: i'm sure they won't reject your thesis just on the basis that it's bigger than 2mb
[13:56] <Ileden> soreau: emm, the kernel option didn't stay after reboot. how do I make it permanent?
[13:56] <phillyj> LjL: umm, I found this on a site and wasn't sure
[13:56] <devi> can anyone help me with the flickering on my screen... getting a graphic driver or knowing what type of graphics card I have?
[13:56] <Galerien> devi: yep...
[13:56] <phillyj> LjL:  I need to set the PATH for some programs to run
[13:56] <devi> Galerien: ok, great, what do i do?
[13:56] <hellyeah> NightlyUser,  yes system didnnt accept just
[13:56] <LjL> phillyj: you found what on a site, to begin with? you really shouldn't be installing random things from websites, but instead of the repositories if possible. why would a program need setting the PATH to run, anyway?
[13:56] <hellyeah> my thesis is 112 pages
[13:57] <phillyj> LjL: its located in a library
[13:57] <Galerien> devi: lspci | grep ati
[13:57] <sipior> phillyj: you were close. try "export PATH=${PATH}:/home/..."
[13:57] <devi> Galerien: uhm.. absolute beginner here... is that a command to put in the terminal?
[13:58] <Galerien> devi: put "lspci | grep VGA" without " in a terminal
[13:58] <phillyj> sipior: so this would add to the PATH?
[13:58] <sipior> phillyj: yep.
[13:58] <panfist> can i change the terminal bell so that it uses my main speakers instead of system speakers
[13:58] <sipior> phillyj: the braces aren't strictly necessary, but a good habit to get into.
[13:59] <b0n1> is it possible that with the new version of ubuntu some printers arent supported anymore ?
[13:59] <devi> Galerien: 00:0d.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation C61 [GeForce 6150SE nForce 430] (rev a2)
[14:00] <devi> Galerien: ok, so what do i do with that now?
[14:00] <petsounds> hi. where can i find config file for gwibber? thanks
[14:00] <jessicaNatalie> hello guys. Where is the toshiba option in the .config file when recompiling kernel???????
[14:00] <NightlyUser> b0n1: yes, i have a lexmark printer and needed to download certain drivers and other dependancies
[14:00] <Galerien> devi: see my private message
[14:00] <Conficker-> yes how do I get a shell ?
[14:00] <tarzeau> you start a terminal?
[14:00] <blue_anna> jessicaNatalie: if no one here knows, try #ubuntu-kernel
[14:01] <jessicaNatalie> #ubuntu-kernel
[14:01] <jessicaNatalie> ok thanks

[14:07] <StaRetji> bazhang, I would appreaciate advise
[14:07] <b0n1> is it possible to just install the ubuntu 9.04 standard printer drivers ?
[14:07] <bazhang> StaRetji, sounds like you should remaster an iso then
[14:07] <bazhang> !remaster | StaRetji
[14:07] <NightlyUser> b0n1: what printer are you trying to get working?
[14:07] <b0n1> i mean it cant be a problem, my printer worked perfect in ubuntu 9.04
[14:07] <b0n1> epson stylus dx4850
[14:08] <shomon> not on mine phlak_user - it crashes instead :)
[14:08] <b0n1> i googled a bit but only found things about epson stylus 8450
[14:08] <bazhang> b0n1, what about at linuxprinting.org database
[14:09] <phlak_user> shomon: on lucid?
[14:09] <shomon> yes
[14:09] <StaRetji> bazhang, thx, it will be adventure for me, but has to give a try
[14:09] <phlak_user> shomon: can you launch skype from a terminal? we might be able to see some error messages
[14:09] <shomon> at least, it claims to be lucid. I had a power failure when it was just upgrading from hoary last night :(
[14:09] <onur> k
[14:09] <shomon> yeah I did with gdb too...
[14:09] <shomon> but just a sec I will again and c/p the error
[14:09] <bazhang> shomon, hoary?

[14:11] <shomon> I'd show them all but there's 10 lines
[14:11] <phlak_user> ah yes
[14:11] <shomon> they are all to do with trying to find working audio devices
[14:11] <phlak_user> shomon: pastebin it please
[14:11] <shomon> but firefox has nicked them
[14:11] <shomon> okay
[14:11] <b0n1> NightlyUser,  do you think dx4800 works for dx 4850 ?
[14:11] <phlak_user> shomon: so are you on lucid or hardy/hoary?
[14:12] <NightlyUser> b0n1: i'd assume so, i use a lexmark z640 and the z600 driver works

[14:13] <phlak_user> shomon: ok; that error log says its trying to use bluetooth
[14:13] <shomon> yeah but those errors don't actually crash it
[14:13] <b0n1> oh sorry
[14:13] <b0n1> i see it
[14:13] <shomon> it crashes when I click on an incoming conversation
[14:13] <NightlyUser> http://www.openprinting.org/driver/gutenprint
[14:13] <shomon> so I ran with gdb... and it complains lots about some obscure qt nonsense
[14:13] <b0n1> what means lsb ?
[14:13] <phlak_user> shomon: do you have pulseaudio
[14:13] <b0n1> lsb version ?
[14:13] <shomon> yes
[14:14] <shomon> I killed it to see if that was the problem... will restart
[14:14] <shomon> yeah it's running, and the crash happens anyway
[14:14] <shomon> I can run it enough to get into the settings though...
[14:14] <phlak_user> shomon: does it happen with the skype test call?

[14:16] <phlak_user> shomon: I have Pulseaudio server on all of them
[14:16] <bazhang> sreeju, which one at this point in time
[14:16] <sreeju> for eg kmplayer
[14:16] <shomon> ok will switch it now
[14:16] <Gerwin> sreeju: configure, make, make install
[14:16] <shomon> test sound works now!
[14:16] <bazhang> sreeju, always look in the repos first, no need to compile most of the time
[14:16] <phlak_user> shomon: and no crash?
[14:17] <sreeju> what is repos
[14:17] <retybok> I think I have found a bug in Ubuntu Netbook Edition. Where do I report it?
[14:17] <bazhang> !repos | sreeju
[14:17] <phlak_user> !repos | sreeju
[14:17] <phlak_user> ops
[14:17] <shomon> yeah no crash!!
[14:17] <phlak_user> shomon: does the mic work too?
[14:17] <shomon> but I'll see if clicking on that incoming conversation still crashes it
[14:17] <shomon> no the mic doesn't work
[14:17] <shomon> yup still crashing
[14:17] <phlak_user> shomon: dumb q but .. do you have a mic?
[14:17] <shomon> yes
[14:18] <shomon> it works on audacity and I can certainly hear the feedback if I turn it up
[14:18] <phlak_user> shomon: whats the error on the terminal on crash
[14:18] <Pwr> Hi there! I'm using ubuntu for a while now, and I've decided to use ubuntu on my home server. What it will do is run Sabnzbd, a torrent client and serve files (password protected shares) to windows and ubuntu computers. After installin the server all I get is a commandline... And I'm lost. "apt-get update" gets errors (as in, internet not working). So where do I begin? Is there a manual for beginners?
[14:18] <shomon> just "Aborted" but I can run it in gdb if that helps
[14:18] <shomon> the backtrace was humungous though
[14:18] <NightlyUser> !server | Pwr
[14:19] <phlak_user> shomon: maybe strace could give us some clue
[14:19] <greezmunkey> Is someone familiar with a process called rtkit-daemon? I see it running on my system clear back to my clean install of 10.04. What does it do?
[14:19] <M0D-1T> guys i need some help with gaming and screen resolution issues in ubuntu
[14:19] <shomon> okay
[14:19] <Galerien> hello, does anyone know an application (graphical and for newbies) that converts m4a to mp3??
[14:19] <Galerien> or ogg
[14:19] <sreeju> whether i have to install something to install packages after downloading from web?
[14:19] <Pwr> NightlyUser: Tnx
[14:19] <NightlyUser> np
[14:19] <h00k> Galerien: open up the Software Center and try 'Sound Converter'
[14:19] <phlak_user> Galerien: try oggenc
[14:19] <sreeju> other than software centre
[14:20] <shomon> ok I'll pastebin it too
[14:20] <Galerien> phlak_user: ok, that's not for me (i'm using some script...) but, i'll try that
[14:20] <Gerwin> sreeju: Most likely the tar files you downloaded contain a file called INSTALL, read that.
[14:20] <shomon> http://pastebin.org/288174
[14:20] <shomon> that's just the last bit before I clicked...
[14:21] <sreeju> but i cant install by that commands
[14:21] <M0D-1T> everytime i try launching a game with wine my desktop resolution crashes and changes from 1680x1050 to 640x480.. why? and how can i fix this problem?
[14:21] <NightlyUser> sreeju: kmplayer is available through synaptic
[14:22] <NightlyUser> !synaptic | sreeju
[14:22] <retybok> M0D-1T: you need to say what is your graphics card, what driver your are using and what game you are trying to run if you want people to help
[14:22] <h00k> M0D-1T: I'm not sure you'll be able to fix it, but you can check in #winehq
[14:23] <phlak_user> shomon: did you install latest version of skype after the upgrade?
[14:23] <sreeju> it will take time to install from software centre ,if slow internet
[14:23] <sreeju> also cannot pause
[14:24] <phlak_user> shomon: this looks like there is a fix --> http://www.jaytag.co.uk/blog/index.php/archives/skype-crashes-after-upgrade-to-ubuntu-10-04-lucid-lynx
[14:24] <retybok> I think I have found a bug in Ubuntu Netbook Edition. Where do I report it?
[14:24] <phlak_user> !bug
[14:24] <retybok> phlak_user: thanks a lot
[14:24] <h00k> retybok: ^ :)
[14:25] <phlak_user> retybok: yw
[14:25] <shomon> wow! cool
[14:25] <shomon> sorry phlak_user, I was chatting here... yeah
[14:26] <shomon> that's great. skype says it's the latest version already... maybe I should go on their website if it's not in apt
[14:26] <sreeju> please answer me
[14:27] <shomon> you mean the cairo workaround I guess phlak_user
[14:27] <phlak_user> shomon: that article has a link to the latest for ubuntu
[14:27] <shomon> ok
[14:27] <blue_anna> sreeju for example, this does it all at once for you: sudo apt-get install kmplayer
[14:27] <jessicaNatalie> friends some of you have any idea where the toshiba support is located when running make menuconfig????????
[14:27] <phlak_user> sreeju: without specifics no one can answer you
[14:27] <bazhang> !compile > sreeju
[14:28] <ubuntu_linux> hi al how can install my ofline ubuntu using windows ( i need a program that check the application dependencies)?
[14:28] <phlak_user> jessicaNatalie: you could do a grep TOSHIBA .config in the build directory
[14:28] <phlak_user> ubuntu_linux: windows as in GUI?
[14:29] <ubuntu_linux> hi *all how can *I install an aplication in my ofline ubuntu using windows ( i need a program that check the application dependencies)?
[14:29] <M0D-1T> I have a graphic card nvidia 9400, using wine 1.1.44 and 1.1.30  and i'm playing with Need For Speed Most Wanted. When i run the game everything works great, sounds, functions etc but the screen resolution changes with no reason from 1680x1050 to 640x480. I notice that the panel bar of gnome remains visible on the top of the screen.. why does this happens? how can i configure the resolution and how can i be able to fix 
[14:29] <blue_anna> phlak_user: she means where in the menu options when she's doing the menued config -- isn't that for monolithic kernels? I remember that... but like from 1995
[14:29] <sreeju> so why ubuntu does not support downloading packages from websites?
[14:29] <ubuntu_linux> phlak_user : yes, please
[14:29] <jessicaNatalie> phlak_user ahh now i understand... thanks a lot!!!
[14:29] <bazhang> M0D-1T, checked the appdb? also try in #winehq
[14:30] <bazhang> !appdb | M0D-1T
[14:30] <phlak_user> blue_anna: it still uses the .config file doesnt it?
[14:30] <pixinvent> does freenode have a LAMP or webserver channel for linux?
[14:30] <M0D-1T> guys i checked the appdb!!
[14:30] <ircleuser1> I have a partitioning problem when I try and install Ubuntu can someone help?
[14:30] <bazhang> sreeju, I sent you a link about compiling, please read it
[14:30] <llutz> pixinvent: #httpd
[14:30] <Pici> pixinvent: Apache's httpd channel is #httpd
[14:30] <shomon> pixinvent, it has various ones for all the various components of lamp
[14:30] <pixinvent> wow nice thanks llutz
[14:30] <blue_anna> phlak_user: yea sure -- but I imagine maybe that doesn't help when you have to find it in the menuconfig application, not the directory
[14:30] <M0D-1T> i know what i'm running but i cannot understand how to make it work properly with the resolution of the screen.
[14:30] <sreeju> ok
[14:30] <blue_anna> phlak_user: and she's already recieved that advice like 15 minutes ago so she must have tried it
[14:30] <bazhang> M0D-1T, try in #winehq
[14:31] <phlak_user> blue_anna: not the directory.. the file that menuconfig uses called .config
[14:31] <dhruba> Hi everybody.
[14:31] <pixinvent> morning dhruba
[14:31] <blue_anna> jessicaNatalie: did you grep the .config file already ?
[14:31] <pixinvent> oh man I slept so long linux wears me out
[14:31] <ubuntu_linux> !offline
[14:32] <jessicaNatalie> blue_anna yeah... i have already found it... thanks a lot ;)
[14:32] <ubuntu_linux> ubottu: thank you
[14:32] <ubuntu_linux> nice bot
[14:32] <mr_daniel> I think /etc/shells is broken, for example it lists /usr/bin/ksh, but /usr/bin/ksh isn't installed on my ubuntu 10.04 machine. This is obviously an error, or is it common practise to list shells in /etc/shells which are not installed on the system?
[14:32] <blue_anna> man that's a blast from the past
[14:33] <blue_anna> :) soon someone's gonna show up asking how many floppy disks they need to install ubuntu
[14:33] <dhruba> I have configured a NFS Server on Ubuntu 10.04 Server and some windows XP machines used as client through SFU. Most of them are working just fine. But a few are loosing the user maps. These machines are on Wireless network. Any idea how to solve this?
[14:33] <shomon> ubottu, what are the laws of robotics? ;)

[14:34] <blue_anna> can anyone help me with my usb card? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1493377 getting close to 200 views with no one knowing the answer
[14:34] <llutz> mr_daniel: doesn't /etc/shells just list valid login-shells, not the ones installed?
[14:34] <phlak_user> blue_anna: if the developer for that card didnt know; fat chance anyone else would
[14:34] <blue_anna> phlak_user: the thing is, this is one of the most supported chipsets hsitorically in linux
[14:34] <sreeju> bazhang, what is the link
[14:35] <bazhang> !compile | sreeju
[14:35] <blue_anna> phlak_user: back when this thing used to attach via serial port it was already mature
[14:35] <phlak_user> blue_anna: so its the usb bit thats the issue?
[14:36] <mr_daniel> I am not sure if I understand what is the difference between a valid and an installed login shell llutz, in my opinion /etc/shells lists installed shells just it is explained here http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/postlfs/etcshells.html, btw: I am not sure if I can trust the information on the page
[14:36] <sreeju> thank you,let me check
[14:36] <blue_anna> phlak_user: it shows up in usb -- you saw the lsusb -v? at the same time, it doesn't register a name so on "lsusb" it is blank
[14:37] <ircleuser1> anyoen else have a 33% partition crash?
[14:37] <phlak_user> blue_anna: it does give you a vendorid and a productid though
[14:37] <blue_anna> phlak_user: it's meticulously enumerated it's interfaces on usb
[14:37] <phlak_user> blue_anna: what messages do you get on dmesg when you plug it in?
[14:38] <llutz> mr_daniel: valid shells are shells a user "may" use as login-shells. installed shells are shells actually installed to the system. so /etc/shells is just a list of shells a user might use (shells not listed here won't be accepted by chsh)
[14:38] <blue_anna> usb detects it and assigns a # .. but no tuner module attaches to it

[14:39] <jshanab> I have a mint 8 machine that is 100 miles away and has at best, a 3-4Kb/sec phone connection on a win 2k notebbok next to it. No broadband. I was told ubuntu 9.10 is the "repo" for it and would like to set up a ubuntu box here and use either apt-mirror or debmirror to create a mirror and then drive it out there.   The question is can I install 10.04 LTS and use apt mirror? or do I need to...
[14:39] <jshanab> ...install 9.01 so that the versions of packages are correct.  Is 10.,04 LTS inclusive of 9.10 contining minor updates, or is it one or the other?
[14:39] <onetinsoldier> mr_daniel: i had a look at my /etc/shells. looks like it lists some shells that i do not have installed. and it doesn't list at least one that i do have installed, 'fish'. just thought i
[14:39] <blue_anna> phlak_user: no tuner module attaches to it, so the dev would be rather dead, wouldn't it?
[14:39] <onetinsoldier> mr_daniel: let you know in case it helps
[14:40] <bazhang> jshanab, no, not inclusive
[14:40] <dhruba> I have already configured NFS Server on Ubuntu 10.04 Server succesfully and I am able to access the shares from most of my Windows XP client machines through SFU except from a few using Wireless network.
[14:40] <bazhang> jshanab, need to fully reinstall a new system
[14:40] <helo> there is no 'admin' group, but sudoers refers to group 'admin'...
[14:40] <phlak_user> blue_anna: it says here that someone got it to work on linux on an eeepc --> http://www.pixelbeat.org/systems/usb_TV/
[14:41] <NightlyUser> dhruba: try asking on #ubuntu-server
[14:41] <vocx> My USB flash drive is not being automounted, it appears in "lsusb", and the kernel assigns it a number under /dev/bus/usb/001/<number>, but it says nothing about creating an "sdb" interface for example. It works, though, if I plug the drive and then reboot with it.
[14:41] <helo> i removed my original installation user, and craeted another user in group 'adm', but that isn't 'admin' :/
[14:41] <dhruba> Thanks.
[14:41] <jshanab> bazhang. Thanks. Is a repo jsut a collection of packages? can I have old both in one repo? (I know this would be big, but I may want to use this box to serve multiple versions
[14:41] <bazhang> jshanab, apt mirror you mean?
[14:42] <phlak_user> helo: add that user to the admin group in System-Administration-Users and Groups

[14:43] <mr_daniel> onetinsoldier: helps to understand valid VS installed better, thanks
[14:43] <vocx> NightlyUser, really this stuff should just work, as it has since ever. This is the first time I have this issue ever.
[14:43] <blue_anna> phlak_user: if he got that thing to run usably on a EEEpc then he did better than the manufacturer :)
[14:43] <jshanab> bazhang so mirror is a command of apt? it mirrors the repos your copy is connected to?  SOrry for the confusion, I am a gentooer mostly. Versioning is done differently
[14:44] <phlak_user> blue_anna: right; all the best
[14:44] <blue_anna> thanks
[14:44] <NightlyUser> vocx: does it automount in other systems ok?
[14:44] <blue_anna> anyone else? can anyone help me with my usb card? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1493377 getting close to 200 views with no one knowing the answer
[14:45] <bazhang> jshanab, its a package
[14:45] <bazhang> !info apt-mirror | jshanab
[14:45] <mr_daniel> http://tldp.org/LDP/sag/html/etc-fs.html : /etc/shells Lists trusted shells. The chsh command allows users to change their login shell only to shells listed in this file. ftpd, is the server process that provides FTP services for a machine, will check that the user's shell is listed in /etc/shells and will not let people log in unless the shell is listed there
[14:46] <mr_daniel> sounds funny, didn't know that there are 'bad shells' or 'untrusted shells' out there :)
[14:46] <Ddorda> if i made an LiveUSB on EXT3 and i want to move to FAT32, i can just make an tarball of all the DOK and extract it after a format?
[14:46] <jshanab> bazhang. That is what I thought, it was a package. I just was unsure what you meant by asking "apt mirror you mean? "
[14:47] <bazhang> jshanab, the populated mirror itself would be many tens of GB though
[14:47] <vocx> NightlyUser, it does on WIndows. I initially thought that my USB drive was reaching end of its life as it's 4 years old, and merely of 256 MB. But it worked okay in Windows. Then bought a brand new flash drive, of 4 GB, and same problem. The kernel doesn't assign it a SATA interface, like sdb. sdc, etc.
[14:47] <jshanab> bazhang. So can I have a ubuntu 10 box that serves out the repo for 9.10 packages
[14:47] <bazhang> jshanab, if you are talking about using for different versions for example
[14:47] <jshanab> bazhang. No problem on the 45 Gigibytes
[14:48] <bazhang> jshanab, how many machines are involved here
[14:48] <jshanab> Att he moment 1 machine 100 miles from decent internet that needs update to get some hardware working.
[14:48] <NightlyUser> vocx: have they automounted succesfully on linux before?
[14:48] <daedaluz> any Klipper equivalent for GNOME?
[14:49] <bazhang> that seems excessive for one machine; what about aptoncd jshanab
[14:49] <bazhang> !aptoncd
[14:49] <vocx> NightlyUser, of course. This is just a problem I noticed a few days ago. Been using Linux since Ubuntu 6.10.
[14:49] <Ddorda> if i made an LiveUSB on EXT3 and i want to move to FAT32, i can just make an tarball of all the DOK and extract it after a format?
[14:50] <NightlyUser> vocx: that is unusual, sorry i can't be of more help, i was going to suggest to reformat them
[14:50] <jshanab> bazhang. I was reading on that and wasn't sure if that would do the trick It seemed like I would need access to the machine or one that is identical at this end. I want to prep here where I have a decent connection and then drive 150 miles and conenct the two together and update it.
[14:51] <NightlyUser> vocx: but since they worked beforehand that probably wouldn't make a difference
[14:52] <bazhang> jshanab, or set one identical up in a virtualbox then do it that way
[14:52] <jshanab> bazhang. Then I want to bring the box here and keep it synced with a cron. So everytime I take it there I can update it. Now if aptoncd will let me send a cd in the mail, that may be better.
[14:52] <greezmunkey> jshanab: why not prepare a new machine, and then take that to your remote location?
[14:52] <vocx> NightlyUser, I can't reformat them, because they are not even available to... eh do stuff with them. I think it may be udev's fault or something like that. Also, I remember that I used to have some kernel modules named ehci_hci and ohci_ or something like that, and now they are gone. Seems, like the kernel now manages this stuff in a more automagic way.
[14:53] <NightlyUser> vocx: that's pretty serious
[14:53] <NightlyUser> vocx: tried reinstalling hal or udev?
[14:53] <vocx> NightlyUser, that would be a little extreme? hehe
[14:54] <jshanab> bazhang. Virtualbox will not hit the hardware driver issues. New machine is tough. Gotta get exact hardware knowledge, and machine is older.  Rather this be a bit more generic.
[14:54] <blendmaster1024> what's a good graphical database client that would allow me to view the tables in a database? i need to write a program to copy the data from one database to another and i need to see the structure of the source database to do it.
[14:54] <helo> whenever it is time to fsck, the proces seems to never end, and when i get impatient and press Esc, i see a bunch of ureadahead-other proces terminations and warnings about ***SEVERE*** filesystem damage
[14:54] <jshanab> greezmunkey.   Software already on machine. User at other end can't handle all the transfers
[14:54] <NightlyUser> vocx: not having those drivers in the kernel is a little extreme too :)
[14:55] <bazhang> helo, you have backups?
[14:55] <jshanab> blendmaster1024. WHat Database?
[14:55] <vocx> NightlyUser, I mean, run "lsmod". Are they there on your system?
[14:55] <blendmaster1024> helo, give it a very long time to run. like leave it on overnight.
[14:55] <blendmaster1024> jshanab, i think the source is SQLServer
[14:55] <sergio> What's the best was to check if a certain library is installed in Ubuntu? For example, I need to know if I have "PyQt 4.1 with Qt 4.2 or newer".
[14:55] <helo> i don't have time to let it run all night starting at 8am on a workday :)
[14:56] <blendmaster1024> helo, i'm just saying that you need to. it's not in any way an immediate solution.
[14:56] <phillyj> sipior: can you tell me what you said about setting PATH? started with "export"; my computer crashed and nothing got saved
[14:56] <blendmaster1024> jshanab, the destination will be sqlite at first, then i'll run it again for mysql later
[14:56] <NightlyUser> vocx: theres usbstorage and usbhid
[14:56] <vocx> NightlyUser, previously, they were there. Now, there is only hid, and usbhid,which I suppose load the other modules magically. Do me a favor. You plug a USB drive, and show me that portion of the log in /var/log/messages. Let me see if I can find some solution.
[14:56] <helo> i like being able to see what is happening, with progress bar, etc
[14:56] <helo> for some reason that disappeared at some point from the framebuffer fanciness
[14:56] <blendmaster1024> jshanab, with any luck, however, i won't need to look at the destination database with a viewer.
[14:57] <isam_> how  can i switch between languages (in winows ctrl + shift)?
[14:57] <bazhang> isam_, using iBus?
[14:57] <isam_> what is ibus i just swtched to ubuntu :|
[14:58] <jshanab> blendmaster1024   Well since each server defaults to a different port I have always found that each one has it's own client. Whiel there may be a universal client, I cannot think of one at the moment. pgadmin for postgres, mysqladmin and webadmin for mysql.  etc.
[14:58] <raven> what is the symlink/folder ~/Private for?
[14:58] <bazhang> !info ibus | isam_
[14:58] <blendmaster1024> bazhang, that's too much information for a new guy.

[15:02] <LjL> blue_anna: uh, you don't... "find" doesn't look *inside* files, it only looks at their directory information
[15:02] <blendmaster1024> phillyj, then yes, that will do it for one session. do you want it for just one session, or for forever?
[15:02] <isam_> no i know i can click the language bar but i need a faster way to switch
[15:02] <mr_fribble> Hi, what does this mean "using the prefix=PREFIX directive" in this guide: http://www.brandonsavage.net/installing-php-5-3-on-ubuntu/?
[15:02] <vocx> phillyj, you typically want your folder to be first "PATH=/my/folder:$PATH"
[15:02] <mr_fribble> http://www.brandonsavage.net/installing-php-5-3-on-ubuntu/    *
[15:02] <phillyj> blendmaster1024: oh, i need to permanently change it
[15:02] <bazhang> isam_, then install ibus and configure it
[15:02] <blue_anna> LjL: ok, -- is there another commmand I can exec that will detect binary files?
[15:02] <NightlyUser> vocx: i got an unreliable usb hub
[15:03] <itguru> mael__, You going to have to learn firewalling really quick!
[15:03] <blue_anna> LjL: thanks, btw, I .. I remember find having a -type b and that would have done it, but not on ubuntu
[15:03] <itguru> mael__, And also explain your setup a bit more
[15:03] <mael__> itguru: how come there is no easy tool in Ubuntu, this is a serious  sec flaw..
[15:03] <mael__> itguru: I run a webserver on one of my port to test it locally
[15:03] <blendmaster1024> phillyj, i see. hold on a sec ...
[15:03] <itguru> mael__, First, this is *not* a security flaw
[15:03] <vocx> NightlyUser, so you can't test this?
[15:03] <NightlyUser> vocx: was that of any help?
[15:03] <itguru> this is by design :)
[15:03] <mael__> itguru: but I would like to drop incoming traffic to that port
[15:04] <itguru> Are you running on your local system?
[15:04] <mr_fribble> Hi, what does this mean "using the prefix=PREFIX directive" in this guide: http://www.brandonsavage.net/installing-php-5-3-on-ubuntu/    ?
[15:04] <mael__> itguru: yes but the fact that the default allows all connections and provide no tool to easily manage  filters  seems to be a flaw
[15:04] <vocx> NightlyUser, What? Did you post something before I crashed and had to reboot?
[15:04] <LjL> blue_anna: "b" finds special files (i.e. /dev/ stuff) on GNU find... anyway, "grep" can discriminate text files from binary files
[15:04] <itguru> mael__, There is something called ufw - which is ubuntu firewall
[15:04] <NightlyUser> vocx: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/p67ZeebV
[15:04] <Cryp71c> How can I enable copy / paste from terminal (rdesktop) to non-terminal windows (gedit, xchat, etc.) and vice versa, presently they appear to use seperate clipboards that do not access one another through any means.
[15:04] <Pici> itguru, mael__: Its 'Uncomplicated Firewall'
[15:04] <mael__> itguru: nice
[15:04] <itguru> mael__, https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/serverguide/C/firewall.html
[15:04] <mael__> okay
[15:05] <mr_fribble> What does this mean "using the prefix=PREFIX directive" in this guide: http://www.brandonsavage.net/installing-php-5-3-on-ubuntu/    ?
[15:05] <blendmaster1024> phillyj, ok, open your ~/.bashrc and add at the end the 'export PATH="$PATH:/path/to/directory"'
[15:05] <itguru> Pici, Oh!? that stands for uncomplicated firewall!? lol - i tell people it's ubuntu firewall, but then, I used all the major distros!
[15:05] <Bagualas_> I cant install ubuntu on a sony vaio laptop... any ideia why? When the disk boot, goes black screen
[15:05] <kaddi> is the kernel used in different linux distributions the same? Or are they developed indepedently? If I changed to Debian would I get a different kernel?
[15:05] <mael__> itguru: why isn't the default to forbid all connexions from the outside on user ports, for instance ?
[15:05] <itguru> mael__, that should get you started
[15:05] <blue_anna> LjL: yea that's true. I have the flag wrong , there is another common build of find that will detect if it is a binary file though
[15:05] <itguru> mael__, To allow people to remotly install ubuntu?
[15:05] <blue_anna> LjL: again thanks
[15:05] <bazhang> Bagualas_, bad iso or bad burn? md5 the iso yet?
[15:06] <itguru> mael__, remotly configure it, without locking themselves out?
[15:06] <mr_fribble> Bagualas: Your installation file is probably bad
[15:06] <blendmaster1024> jshanab, you not know of any database visualization tools that i can get free (don't need to be FOSS) and that work on SQLServer?
[15:06] <Bagualas_> bazhang, already installed in another machine
[15:06] <dp_> if I apt-get install python-zopeinterface, apt says: Note, selecting python-zope.interface instead of python-zopeinterface --- why?
[15:06] <mael__> itguru: allow connections that have been initiated by the machine, but drop those from unknown other machines
[15:06] <bazhang> Bagualas_, try some bootoptions?
[15:06] <mael__> itguru:  I will  check  the fwall
[15:06] <Pici> mael__: There is nothing listening on any ports when Ubuntu is installed. Therefore, no firewall rules are needed.
[15:06] <mr_fribble> What does this mean "using the prefix=PREFIX directive" in this guide: http://www.brandonsavage.net/installing-php-5-3-on-ubuntu/    ?
[15:06] <vocx> NightlyUser, yep. For instance, with me, the kernel messages only shows the first two lines "usb 1-3.4: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 49" and "usb 1-3.4: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice", the other stuff "scsi27 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices", etc. doesn't appear.
[15:06] <bazhang> Bagualas_, if all else fails try the alternate cd
[15:06] <darkhack> Hello...
[15:06] <phillyj> blendmaster1024: what is ~/.bashrc and where is it?
[15:07] <Bagualas_> bazhang, whats the difference between the alternative and the official?
[15:07] <kaddi> phillyj: ~ is your home directory
[15:07] <Martijnvdc> do kernel upgrades come automatically with ubuntu? or do i need to upgrade manually??
[15:07] <itguru> Pici, I just googled it myself and it really IS uncomplicated firewall!? awesome!
[15:07] <blendmaster1024> phillyj, ~/ is a shortcut to your home directory, so ~/.bashrc is a text file in your home directory that starts with a . aka it's hidden.
[15:07] <NightlyUser> vocx: anything i can do to help further?
[15:07] <mr_fribble> What does this mean "using the prefix=PREFIX directive" in this guide: http://www.brandonsavage.net/installing-php-5-3-on-ubuntu/    ?
[15:07] <bazhang> Bagualas_, live is run and show with installing/plus can install; alternate is text only installer
[15:07] <ircleuser1> I can't install lucid on my pc its crashes at the partitioner. Alternate CD is fine and memory also good, Hd is new any ideas?
[15:07] <vocx> NightlyUser, do a "lsmod | grep usb"
[15:08] <darkhack> Anyone with ATI HD Card notice that ATI Catalyst 10.5 which recently release two days ago keep wanting to be remove when uninstalling other packages.
[15:08] <Pici> mr_fribble: You can specify environment variables before an executable name to make them only be defined for that programs execution. i.e, FOO="bar" ./path/baz
[15:08] <phillyj> blendmaster1024: i get permission denied when i type ~/.bashrc
[15:09] <Martijnvdc> does ubuntu automatically install new kernel upgrades??
[15:09] <darkhack> Is this a Ubuntu Lucid error
[15:09] <vastdream1> join
[15:09] <n8w> i keep gettin: A problem that we were not expecting has occurred.
[15:09] <mr_fribble> Pici: So what would I change in the configure?
[15:09] <darkhack> any fix to this or wil ubuntu fix this anytime soon.
[15:09] <blendmaster1024> phillyj, ok. just run this command and the text editor will open: 'gedit ~/.bashrc'
[15:09] <n8w> Please report this bug with the error description. and the description says "menu"
[15:09] <NightlyUser> vocx: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/ACh7quMS
[15:10] <vastdream1> what??
[15:10] <Pici> mr_fribble: Actually. looking over that again, take a look at ./configure --help   to see what exactly the -prefix argument does. Likely it defines what location you'd want to install php into.  Additionally, are you aware that php 5.3 is in the lucid repositories?
[15:10] <kaddi> is the kernel used in different linux distributions the same? Or are they developed indepedently? If I changed to Debian would I get a different kernel than the one that is currently used in ubuntu??
[15:10] <mr_fribble> Pici: What is lucid repositories? The latest version is 5.2.6
[15:10] <jshanab> blandmaster1024. I tried this once http://www.dbvis.com/  but it didn't really work as well as advertized for postgres so I stuck to pgadmin3. Maybe it will work for you
[15:10] <Pici> mr_fribble: What version of Ubuntu are you running?
[15:11] <isam_> in which app i can edit files and save them directly to my remote server?
[15:11] <mr_fribble> 9.04
[15:11] <mr_fribble> Pici: I don't want to upgrade my ubuntu
[15:11] <Pici> mr_fribble: Ah. 'lucid' is the codename for 10.04.
[15:11] <jdeloach> Anybody have any idea why one monitor, the text is lighter and such, and the others are fine. This happened immediately following my upgrade to 10.04 Lucid Lynx Desktop.
[15:12] <mr_fribble> Pici:so -prefix =PREFIX would be where I want to install it?
[15:12] <vocx> NightlyUser, hey, wadayya know! I modprobe usb_storage, as per your paste, and it worked. Mmmm... more testing needs t be done. As I said, my lsmod only had "usbhid" and "hid", but your laptop has some other modules loaded. I wonder why?
[15:12] <kaddi> is there a way to run lucid with the 2.6.28 kernel?
[15:12] <phillyj> blendmaster1024: so i just add the export to the end? I have another location that i must also add to the PATH so would I write another "export" line?
[15:13] <NightlyUser> vocx: i run xubuntu but i probably coulnt answer that
[15:13] <Pici> mr_fribble: Probably.  running ./configure with only -h or --help should explain what -prefix is though.
[15:13] <NightlyUser> vocx: glad i could help
[15:13] <blendmaster1024> phillyj, yep, at the end. no, you'd put both in the same line: "export PATH=$PATH:/path/to/directory1:/directory2/path/here"
[15:13] <jshanab> blendmaster1024. sorry missspelled your name.  I tried this once http://www.dbvis.com/ but it didn't really work as well as advertized for postgres so I stuck to pgadmin3. Maybe it will work for you
[15:13] <vocx> NightlyUser, don't you feel happy when the user asks the right questions to help people help him?
[15:13] <jshanab> I found thet any tool that talks JDBC works on a lot of databases that have jdbc, but that you have minimal functionality for database specific stuff
[15:13] <FloodBot2> jshanab: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[15:14] <NightlyUser> vocx: yes
[15:14] <jdeloach> What are the advantages of MySQL over PostgreSQL?
[15:14] <jshanab> Flood?
[15:14] <NightlyUser> vocx: you likely know more than me
[15:14] <Pici> jshanab: probably the bot is just lagged :)
[15:14] <Pici> !ot | jdeloach
[15:15] <mr_fribble> Pici: Thank you for your help
[15:16] <dp_> anyone?
[15:16] <kaddi> is there a way to run lucid with the 2.6.28 kernel?
[15:16] <Gnea> !anyone
[15:16] <Cryp71c> How can I enable copy / paste from terminal (rdesktop) to non-terminal windows (gedit, xchat, etc.) and vice versa, presently they appear to use seperate clipboards that do not access one another through any means.
[15:16] <blendmaster1024> jshanab, thank you! looks like it'll work, my only hesitation is the license - am i allowed to use the eval version for work?
[15:16] <jshanab> Pici. Oh i see I accidently hit return mid post. LOL
[15:16] <phillyj> blendmaster1024: is there a space between the  1st and 2nd directories?
[15:17] <blendmaster1024> phillyj, no. a space will break it.
[15:17] <jshanab> blendmaster1024. I don't know. never dug that deep
[15:17] <blendmaster1024> phillyj, in fact, if you have spaces in any of the names of the directorys, the export line has to be slightly different.
[15:17] <hxing> hello , what's xchat
[15:17] <hxing> i'm new here
[15:17] <Cryp71c> hxing, its a irc program.
[15:18] <hxing> thank Cry
[15:18] <blendmaster1024> !info xchat > hxing
[15:18] <hxing> thanks guys
[15:18] <blendmaster1024> hxing, also, it's what i'm typing in as i talk to you.
[15:18] <hxing> could you guys tell me where you from ?
[15:19] <bazhang> hxing, chat in #ubuntu-offtopic please
[15:19] <blendmaster1024> hxing, all over the place. around the world. no more specific than that is needed.
[15:19] <hxing> Ok
[15:19] <hxing> you guys are hospitality
[15:20] <hxing>  i like been here
[15:20] <kaddi> how would I go around to downgrade the kernel in lucid?
[15:20] <wise_crypt> !hi all
[15:20] <bazhang> kaddi, why would you want to do that
[15:20] <Martijnvdc> does ubuntu upgrade the kernel automatically??
[15:20] <blendmaster1024> hxing, seriously. no chat in here. there is too much else going on - if you want to chat, talk in #ubuntu-offtopic as most of us are there too.
[15:20] <bazhang> Martijnvdc, unattended you mean?
[15:20] <Cryp71c> Martijnvdc, pseudo automatically, I think its pulled in through synnaptic "upgrade all" options.
[15:20] <isam_> i used windows installer how can i increase
[15:21] <hxing> i have another question : does xchat need to register ?
[15:21] <vocx> Martijnvdc, yes. But only security upgrades. A really new kernel is delivered when the whole distributions upgrades, every six months
[15:21] <Cryp71c> kaddi, you'd need to build the new (old) kernel and manually make the shifts over.
[15:21] <bazhang> hxing, no, but some channels do
[15:21] <Martijnvdc> ah, thank you!
[15:21] <bazhang> !register | hxing
[15:21] <kaddi> cause I've been unable to modify my screensettings and modify cpu tact for some while and that's annoying me. This is a laptop, it's supposed to run long time and that ain't happening with birghtness set to full and cpu running at the highest tact
[15:21] <kaddi> @ bazhang
[15:21] <blendmaster1024> hxing, xchat does not, but freenode, what xchat connects to, does - see what bazhang gave you
[15:21] <hxing> thanks
[15:22] <bazhang> kaddi, a kernel downgrade is not something to consider and not supported here
[15:22] <blendmaster1024> hxing, it's not absolutely required, either; it just makes it so that other people don't take your nickname and stuff like that.
[15:22] <kaddi> I made a bugreport about it a year ago too, I've been updating it regularly for the last year, but I've given up hope that anybody is actually going to read it. So I'd like to go back to kernel 28 where stuff was working
[15:22] <phantu> help
[15:22] <phantu> help
[15:23] <aeon-ltd> !help
[15:23] <bazhang> phantu, ask a question then
[15:23] <kaddi> @ bazhang where would that be supported?
[15:23] <phantu> yes
[15:23] <rethus> before i send my pc to standby my network works. And i installed kttsd (text2speech). Now after startup, i see my networkcard anymore if i type ifconfig i only get localhost
[15:23] <rethus> any idea, what i could do?
[15:23] <Cryp71c> rethus, sudo ifconfig -a
[15:23] <phantu> i want ask to install driver linux mint?
[15:23] <wad> What? No package for xearth?
[15:24] <bazhang> kaddi, running an older kernel wont fix that , ie if it's not meant for that version
[15:24] <Cryp71c> rethus, does your network device show up then?
[15:24] <hxing> does the universal language here is english , what about french ?
[15:24] <bazhang> phantu, linux mint is not supported here
[15:24] <bazhang> hxing, in #ubuntu-fr
[15:24] <rethus> yes, eth0
[15:24] <aeon-ltd> phantu: please don't stall, when asking a Q please write the whole Q
[15:24] <LjL> hxing: there are other channels for other languages (like #ubuntu-fr for french)
[15:24] <blendmaster1024> hxing, i think there is a #ubuntu-fr
[15:24] <Cryp71c> rethus, sudo ifconfig eth0 up
[15:24] <aeon-ltd> phantu: what driver btw?
[15:24] <phantu> okie
[15:24] <wise_crypt> hi all i'm wondering why my box freeze if i set the visual effect to normal (it didnt happen when i set it to none)
[15:24] <bazhang> !mintsupport | phantu
[15:24] <phantu> about sound
[15:25] <Cryp71c> rethus, when a specific network device is "down" it doesn't show up on the normal ifconfig list, nor will it be regarded as actually being "On"
[15:25] <hxing> thanks , but i dont know how to the fr channel
[15:25] <kaddi> bazhang: so only choice would be to go back to intrepid? or hardy?
[15:25] <wise_crypt> !compiz > wise_crypt
[15:25] <phantu> sound driver
[15:25] <hxing> how to enter
[15:25] <bazhang> phantu, check linuxmint support ie not here
[15:25] <Cryp71c> rethus, obviously something is putting your network device down, though I can't say what.
[15:25] <bazhang> hxing, /join #ubuntu-fr
[15:25] <phantu> okei
[15:25] <aeon-ltd> phantu: please stop stalling or using enter as punctuation
[15:25] <Cryp71c> hxing, read an irc tutorial, there are 1000x of them online, go google.
[15:25] <phantu> but it is not working
[15:25] <bazhang> aeon-ltd, he's not stalling, no need for that
[15:25] <rethus> Cryp71c: k, i see it now if i enter ifconfig, but have still no connection
[15:25] <blendmaster1024> Cryp71c, that's very not helpful.
[15:25] <bazhang> phantu, its not supported here
[15:25] <Cryp71c> rethus, sudo dhclient eth0
[15:26] <hxing> thanks
[15:26] <Cryp71c> blendmaster1024, what isn't?
[15:26] <blendmaster1024> hxing, are you in xchat now?
[15:26] <phantu> and driver wifi? help
[15:26] <aeon-ltd> phantu: do you have ALSA installed?
[15:26] <bazhang> Cryp71c, suggesting google is not OK here
[15:26] <hxing> yes , i'm here
[15:26] <blendmaster1024> Cryp71c, 99.999% of the time, you tell someone to google it, and they never figure it out
[15:26] <aeon-ltd> phantu: what wifi card? not many are supported by linux yet, but many are experimental/buggy
[15:26] <phillyj> blendmaster1024: i think i have to reboot for the PATH changes to take place?
[15:27] <blendmaster1024> phillyj, no. just restart bash.
[15:27] <bazhang> aeon-ltd, please join him in the linuxmint support chat
[15:27] <Cryp71c> phillyj, EXPORT $PATH, I think will export the path.
[15:27] <rethus> Cryp71c: k. thanks a lot, now eth0 has an ip
[15:27] <blendmaster1024> hxing, there are many ways to get to this chatroom that are not xchat. ok, see this : #channelnumber500 <<  right click on that word and click "join channel"
[15:27] <phillyj> blendmaster1024: how do i restart bash?
[15:27] <rethus> Cryp71c: but what could be the basic-problem why the network not start
[15:27] <blendmaster1024> phillyj, close the terminal, reopen.
[15:27] <Cryp71c> rethus, k, that's only a temp solution, you'll have to continue to do that (ifconfig eth0 up ; dhclient eth0) so you need to identify what's causing your network device to go down
[15:27] <phantu> card atheros

[15:33] <ekennedy1> I asked this about 25 min ago but my empathy died.  Sorry for the re ask.  I recently upgraded from 9.10 64bit server to 10.04.  After doing so I boot at runlevel "unknown" so a number of critical service sdo not start.  I've read the threads and don't have an interfaces file problem.  How can an diagnose the source of the problem?
[15:33] <vocx> madjoe, if you could provide links to said PDFs we might be able to test them on our machines
[15:33] <e01> i was installed all packages and drivers that are associated with card reader from the synaptic and the card reader still not working, can somebody help me
[15:33] <h0n0da> ermm....the problem is that i don`t know how:)

[15:33] <carso1> Hi all total n00b here, tia for any help, was frustrated a few days ago that my internal hds weren't automounting, so installed pysdm and promptly messed everything up. Won't boot properly now, running off a livecd. help?
[15:33] <remoteCTRL> Pici: there dude?
[15:34] <madjoe> vocx: can I send you the link by pvt?
[15:34] <phillyj> if I have to add a PATH for a directory with spaces, how would that be done?
[15:34] <nomnex> lucid w/intel gpu 855 black screen trying the installation CD. i951.nomodset=1 after quite splash does not work, do I need to erase "quite splash"?
[15:34] <vocx> madjoe, sure
[15:34] <killown> i give up of lucid
[15:34] <madjoe> vocx: thanks.... hold on
[15:34] <aeon-ltd> carso1: back up, reinstall, internal hard drives you mean raid or partitions?
[15:34] <aeon-ltd> nomnex: for starters its 915 and quiet
[15:34] <carso1> partitions. attempting to back up right now, but access isn't granted for many files/folders.
[15:35] <nomnex> aeon-ltd, so first 915 --- quite splash?
[15:35] <Pici> remoteCTRL: Whats up?
[15:35] <aeon-ltd> carso1: you may need to mount them at boot with fstab
[15:35] <aeon-ltd> nomnex: splash just controls the gui graphical boot, quiet kills off the majority of the verbose messages
[15:36] <nomnex> aeon-ltd, the wiki https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Bugs/Lucidi8xxFreezes says: 3) Add "i915.modeset=1" after "quiet splash".
[15:36] <aeon-ltd> nomnex: are these spelling mistakes present in menu.lst?
[15:36] <nomnex> aeon-ltd, so that's wrong?
[15:36] <carso1> aeon-ldt: pretty sure that's what I was trying to do with pysdm, fstab got messed up. tried last night to fix it (set defaults, etc.) but again, no permission to edit the file from this live boot. Not sure how else to edit it (terrible at cmd line stuff)
[15:36] <Korcia> hi everybody, since yesterday I have a problem: the gnome panels disappears, I restart nautilus but when I close any window it disappears again. In the log I found these messages: kernel:  nautilus[3034] general protection  in libgobject-2.0.so.0.2400.1
[15:36] <remoteCTRL> Pici: hey dude, long time no see:) do you happen to know where to the entries for dvd/cdrom drives have gone in fstab and why there are no more directories in /media to mount them to?
[15:36] <nomnex> aeon-ltd, I want to try the CD before installing
[15:37] <rethus> Cryp71c: jes.
[15:37] <Pici> remoteCTRL: They should be there, that hasn't changed in Lucid.
[15:37] <rethus> means, now after your commands i don't try it, but normaly yes
[15:37] <wise_crypt> Ipanels > Korcia
[15:37] <aeon-ltd> nomnex: i don't understand can you rephrase the problem
[15:37] <wise_crypt> !panels > Korcia
[15:37] <rethus> only thing i found in dmesg is: eth0:: no IPV6 router present
[15:39] <remoteCTRL> Pici: but this is like my 5th different installatin where all of that is just gone
[15:39] <harjot> Can anyone lend me 5 or 2 dollars to my paypal account? I will give it back in 5 mins
[15:39] <bazhang> !ot > harjot
[15:40] <aeon-ltd> harjot: is it for a nigerian prince?
[15:40] <remoteCTRL> Pici: /media is total 0 and fstab lacks every hint that the computers have one or more drives..
[15:40] <harjot> no
[15:40] <aeon-ltd> harjot: sorry can't help you them
[15:40] <aeon-ltd> *then
[15:40] <harjot> aeon-ltd: i need to have like 5 dollars
[15:40] <harjot> aeon-ltd: in paypal
[15:40] <aeon-ltd> y
[15:40] <bazhang> harjot, that is offtopic here please stop it
[15:41] <harjot> sorry
[15:41] <nomnex> aeon-ltd, forget about it, I was passing the string i915.nomodset=1 instead of i915.modeset=1, I will try again, thanks, and your comment says the "modeset" goes before the quite splash right?
[15:41] <sergey> quit
[15:42] <aeon-ltd> nomnex: do it after since the wiki reccommends it
[15:42] <nomnex> aeon-ltd, will thank, bye
[15:42] <aeon-ltd> nomnex: bye
[15:42] <nomnex> ... will do, thanks
[15:42] <cheater99> hi
[15:42] <cheater99> where do i find the default .inputrc ?
[15:42] <aeon-ltd> cheater99: hi
[15:42] <cheater99> :)
[15:42] <vocx> madjoe, I see a 17-page document but the headers are the only thing that is shown, and it looks corrupted. I think this is a problem with the application creating the PDF
[15:43] <joalupo> sorry
[15:43] <aeon-ltd> cheater99: never heard of it, what is it used for?
[15:43] <cheater99> it is used for readline configuration
[15:43] <aeon-ltd> vocx: you good with command line?
[15:43] <vocx> aeon-ltd, what do you want to know?
[15:43] <cheater99> i want to find out what keystroke changes from emacs mode to vi mode and back
[15:43] <aeon-ltd> cheater99: try creating one in your home dir. see if it gets read
[15:44] <drizzt_> i don't get it, i'm trying to enable bitmap fonts but dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig-config gives me no options at all, how to do it?
[15:44] <cheater99> aeon-ltd, i want to find the one that exists already
[15:44] <aeon-ltd> vocx: you could try using pdftohtml it will convert the pdf to images and html, if its not present there either its most likely corrupt
[15:44] <alket> how to convert MP3 to AIFF ?
[15:44] <roby> i'm usng ubuntu netbook remix here and enjoying it
[15:44] <aeon-ltd> roby: good to know
[15:45] <Oer> default /etc/inputrc
[15:45] <carso1> aeon-ltd: is that it? edit fstab? I figured that out on my own, but am having trouble editing fstab. you look busy, maybe I'll look elsewhere.
[15:45] <vocx> aeon-ltd, oh, okay. It's not really my problem, I was helping madjoe. You got that ^ madjoe? It's probably corrupted.
[15:45] <roby> i do have some problems with the display because sometimes the screen shifts to the left and the other part pops out at the right
[15:45] <rethus> Cryp71c: any idea?
[15:46] <aeon-ltd> carso1: there wiki entrys on various sites, but i usually just copy a similar line and edit it to my prefs :)
[15:46] <saif> i can not install vbox additions to the fedora guest , i am using ubuntu 10.04
[15:46] <cheater99> seems to be /etc/inputrc
[15:46] <rethus> Cryp71c: only thing i found in dmesg is: eth0:: no IPV6 router present
[15:46] <madjoe> vocx: yeah, but the sender doesn't see a problem in viewing it in other applications on Windows... he even sent me the same file in .docx format and still it seemed to be corrupted... I don't know why
[15:46] <Dave915> I just installed 10.04 LT and i have one problem when i launch firefox or any app i and not able to close it or move it
[15:46] <Knat> apache2 isn't starting up when my system boots, when I enter "update-rc.d apache2 defaults" I get "System start/stop links for /etc/init.d/apache2 already exist."  I'm not seeing anything illuminating in my system or apache logs, any suggestions?
[15:47] <daedaluz> what? I can't use Kubuntu CD as a package source for Ubuntu?! 10.04 ofcourse
[15:47] <drizzt_> how to enable bit,ap fonts? stupid wiki is outdated
[15:47] <madjoe> aeon-ltd: thanks for the hint
[15:47] <vocx> madjoe, hehe, probably some visual basic virus of some sort in his machine.
[15:48] <madjoe> vocx: lol :)
[15:48] <carso1> aeon-ltd: thanks for the help, think I'm on my way. (gksu is my friend!)
[15:49] <Dave915> there is not x on the window or any boarder around it
[15:49] <Oer> Dave915, it hat occurs, press F11 to unlock maximum screen
[15:50] <cheater99> aha, alt-ctrl-j for vi mode and ctrl-e for emacs mode
[15:50] <Dave915> it's not that Oer it's something else
[15:50] <vocx> madjoe, I guess, post the docx then so I can try it out too.   By the way, I tried evince and okular with your PDF and they did not crash, only they displayed a corrupted file.
[15:51] <glphvgacs> how do i go about installing grub2 on /dev/sda ?
[15:51] <madjoe> vocx: evince and vocular? should I use any other PDF viewer if there's something better than the default app in Ubuntu?
[15:52] <aeon-ltd> epdfviewer
[15:52] <zenlunatic> madjoe, adobe reader
[15:53] <madjoe> zenlunatic aeon-ltd: is there something more lightweight such as Foxit Reader on windows? is epdfviewer something like that?
[15:53] <blendmaster1024> madjoe, the only thing better in any way IMO is adobe reader; and it's slower.
[15:53] <vocx> madjoe, the default viewer is "evince" which is the Document Viewer. But you can install okular, or xpdf, or even adobe reader, in the partner repository. I haven't had a need for it though, the open source solutions work okay for me.
[15:53] <aeon-ltd> madjoe: kinda
[15:53] <theadmin> A libc6 update requires system restart right
[15:54] <aeon-ltd> but then its relative to evince, so yeah
[15:54] <blendmaster1024> madjoe, the reason it's better is because in general, it works better, if more slowly.
[15:54] <blendmaster1024> madjoe, thing is, evince can print secured documents and other stuff like that
[15:54] <vocx> theadmin, surprisingly not. I updated libc6 and didn't have to reboot, I was amazed.
[15:54] <wise_crypt> !best
[15:54] <madjoe> blendmaster1024: I prefer speed and stability... ok, I'll talk to the guy to change his PDF converter or something.
[15:54] <theadmin> vocx: o_o
[15:56] <madjoe> blendmaster1024: so, do you think I should just stick to the default viewer then?
[15:56] <theadmin> Then what could require a system restart out of the following list?  http://paste.ubuntu.com/440914/
[15:56] <vocx> madjoe, tell him to use PDFCreator, it's a free alternative, using a virtual PDF printer and Ghostscript.
[15:56] <blue_anna> LjL: check this out: find . -exec bash -c 'somefunc >/dev/null' \; -- that works :)
[15:56] <theadmin> I don't get it :/
[15:56] <blendmaster1024> madjoe, unless you find a pdf that doesn't work right in it, yes.
[15:57] <madjoe> vocx: what if he uses a MAc?
[15:57] <blendmaster1024> argh all input is frozen except the xchat type box - the mouse moves but won't click, and only parts of the keyboard work o.O
[15:57] <blendmaster1024> seriouly wtf!
[15:58] <melter> ever since i upgraded to 10.04, when i jump to a marked line in vim, if that mark doesn't exist, it goes to the mark in another file. can i turn this off?
[15:58] <madjoe> vocx: I think this one's ok as well - if not even better alternative: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=F1FC413C-6D89-4F15-991B-63B07BA5F2E5&displaylang=en
[15:59]  * blendmaster1024 restarts X
[15:59] <hacim> how do I get network manager to stop configuring my eth0?
[15:59] <remoteCTRL> anybody happen to know where to the entries for dvd/cdrom drives have gone in fstab and why there are no more directories in /media to mount them to?
[15:59] <hacim> i manually configure that interface, but then networkmanager unconfigures it
[16:00] <vocx> madjoe, mmm... I'm stumped, I didn't know PDFCreator was for Windows only. I can't believe there isn't a similar solution for Mac. In any case, he could use Open Office, which natively supports the creation of PDFs.
[16:00] <blendmaster1024> better! metacity had crashed.
[16:00] <blendmaster1024> ok now clicking in xchat does the same thing the close button does
[16:00] <madjoe> vocx: thanks
[16:00] <red2kic> Hello Ubuntu-indulged Users!
[16:01] <rethus> my system has only network, if i type ifconfig eth0 up && dhclient eth0 in terminal after startup. why my system not create the network-connection themself (kubuntu 10.04) ?
[16:01] <joshua__> hi there i'm experiencing occasional random boot freezes does anybody here  have a similar problem?
[16:01] <rethus> how can i find the problem step by step?
[16:01] <joshua__> it happens simply when powering the computer on, it hangs at the splash screen
[16:02] <joshua__> it doesn't happen all the time,just occasionally
[16:02] <Oliphaunt> hi there, I just installed ubuntu and asked it to dual-boot with existing fedora 8
[16:02] <Oliphaunt> it didn't... so now I'm wondering how to manually set it up to do so
[16:03] <wise_crypt> !autofs > remoteCTRL
[16:03] <MaximLevitsky> joshua__: what ubuntu version
[16:04] <joshua__> 10.04 lucid

[16:06] <Oliphaunt> wise_crypt: thanks, I'll read through that
[16:06] <joshua__> the odd thing is that it only happens sometimes, not every time i boot it up

[16:07] <mr_fribble> How do I fix this? http://img88.imageshack.us/img88/3916/timeg.png
[16:07] <fastfwd> but it never occurred after i removed the splash option...

[16:08] <joshua__> *whether
[16:08] <chavez> Hi all, I recently upgraded from kubuntu 8.04 to 9.10 and then to 10.04. Removed all kde4 stuff and changed to xfce (minimal xubuntu, with only few apps). Now can't get mouse acceleration to work - xfce settings manager doesn't work, xset mouse 20 2 also doesn't work. I'm using thinkpad T23, the problem is with trackpoint, haven't tried any "real" mouse (i'm never using it anyways..). It was the same problem on 9.10 and in 10.04 - settings in kde configurat
[16:08] <chavez> or didn't affect behaviour, but I didn't bother to fix as i was about to upgrade to 10.04 xfce
[16:08] <MaximLevitsky> joshua__: don't think so yet
[16:08] <|friTTe|> hi boys and girls =) i got a problem with pidgin musictracker and banshee
[16:08] <|friTTe|> everything is set but still no output
[16:08] <wise_crypt> bencc1: is this your looking for http://packages.ubuntu.com/source/lucid/opencv ?
[16:09] <joshua__> it may be a bug in plymouth or something - people were experiencing boot freezes. i'll disable the splash for now
[16:09] <joshua__> it never freezes if the splash is disabled

[16:12] <acicula> coldfront, im aware of how updating works thank you
[16:12] <joshua__> the driver's installed for some reason
[16:12] <coldfront> ah sorry ha
[16:12] <blue_anna> coalesce: it's not in my fstab
[16:12] <acicula> chavez, that does not let you update from 8.04 to 9.10
[16:12] <joshua__> the noveau one
[16:13] <coalesce> anyone know if you can hide/shorten the display of your username@domain in terminal?
[16:13] <acicula> as you cant skip ubuntu releases unless its an upgrade from LTS versions, ie 8.04 directly to 10.04
[16:13] <rpattabi> I am planning to buy Kodak C142 digital camera. Does it work well on ubuntu 10.04?
[16:13] <MaximLevitsky> joshua__: since you have intel video card you don't need to worry about nouveau
[16:14] <mr_fribble> How do I fix this? http://img88.imageshack.us/img88/3916/timeg.png
[16:14] <joshua__> @rpattabi: most cameras work fine and are just mass storage devices
[16:14] <chavez> acicula, maybe it was 9.04, not sure, i had it only for like an hour, cause direct upgrade from LTS to LTS was not possible
[16:14] <blue_anna> mr_fribble: I use the gimp

[16:14] <wise_crypt> remoteCTRL: see http://freespace.sourceforge.net/guidod/howto/autofs.html
[16:14] <remoteCTRL> blue_anna: but lets continue here as it is about ubuntu anyways:)
[16:14] <blue_anna> wow that's a real problem
[16:14] <acicula> chavez, i guess it was 9.04 then
[16:14] <coalesce> anyone...
[16:14] <blue_anna> remoteCTRL: I want to know the answer to your question too :)
[16:14] <MaximLevitsky> rpattabi: and if you just want to read photos/videos from it, you can just read them from the flash card using el cheapo card reader
[16:14] <joshua__> i'll disable my splash for now as a workaround
[16:15] <remoteCTRL> wise_crypt: ya thanks for that and i got autofs in use here with ldap but i never dreamtz of uasing this for cdrom drives on your local computer??
[16:15] <MaximLevitsky> joshua__: my advice for problems that happen 'sometimes' is to sit and wait
[16:15] <remoteCTRL> blue_anna: hehe well help me with the research then:)
[16:15] <acicula> chavez, what do you mean with mouse acceleration exactly? that it speeds up when moving? and using the settings manager it wont keep the settings?
[16:15] <rpattabi> @josua__: I thought the same. But looks like there are some specific issues with kodak models. The usual recommendation is to use card reader. Not sure about C142 which is newer.
[16:16] <fremapesua> Hello everyone
[16:16] <drizzt_> coalesce, set PS1 env var in .bashrc
[16:16] <blue_anna> remoteCTRL: I'm looking
[16:16] <acicula> mr_fribble, you need root to change the time like that
[16:16] <coalesce> i only want it in one instance of terminal if possible
[16:16] <joshua__> bye thanks for your help
[16:16] <acicula> root privelidges
[16:16] <MaximLevitsky> joshua__: you for example think that its plymouth, but maybe you just was lucky and its something else. Use the system without splash for a while and see how it behaves
[16:16] <wise_crypt> remoteCTRL: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1479453&page=2
[16:16] <blue_anna> remoteCTRL: I just scanned the whole etc directory for my mounted device and none of the files configure it to mount
[16:16] <joshua__> ok i;ll try that
[16:16] <coalesce> a specific profile actually
[16:16] <Psy-T> Is there a way to save like, a snapshot of my current system configuration? So that if I mess something up I could just revert back to my current state easily?
[16:17] <joshua__> why is it called plymouth anyway
[16:17] <Orbixx> How can I get the Ralink RT2860 wireless chipset to function?
[16:17] <rpattabi> @MaximLevitsky: That means kodak camera will give problems if I connect it in ubuntu?
[16:17] <coalesce> i want to set profile 999666 to hide username@domain in terminal
[16:17] <oCean_> coalesce: the prompt is madeup in the "PS1" variable. Setting PS1="myprompt " will change that.
[16:17] <oCean_> coalesce: also, see http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=471264
[16:18] <chavez> acicula, if i set acceleration to 10x with gui, the mouse moves like it's still 1.0x, i did the same with xset command, but nothing worked after restart of x
[16:18] <Night_Elf> Psy-T: When you say 'snapshot' of the system configuration, the system configuration files are all in /etc
[16:18] <onetinsoldier> Psy-T: i've heard people like a utility called 'remastersys', but it' not in the stock Lucid repositories. but anyway, here's some other...
[16:18] <MaximLevitsky> rpattabi: if kodak camera uses mass storage protocol or PTP protocol, that it will work out of box
[16:18] <acicula> coalesce, err i think the bash prompt is set in the PS1 and PS2 environment variable, google bash prompt or check the man page for bash at the bottom to check
[16:18] <onetinsoldier> !backup | Psy-T
[16:18] <blue_anna> remoteCTRL: it's not been relocated to var either -- sometimes weird things get moved to var like that
[16:18] <Night_Elf> Psy-T: so basically, you could do what you want with:  cp -r -p /etc   /etc.saved
[16:18] <coalesce> can i make the prompt profile specific?
[16:18] <Psy-T> Thanks guys.
[16:18] <bencc1> wise_crypt: there is libcv4 package
[16:18] <fremapesua> I'm having problems trying to obtain the OpenPGP Key from Console.... I'm typing gpg --fingerprint and in return I'm not getting anything
[16:18] <MaximLevitsky> rpattabi: if there are some special features, don't know adjustments maybe that are controlled via windows program that won't work
[16:19] <oCean_> coalesce: it is (hence the username in the prompt?)
[16:19] <coalesce> no i mean terminal profile
[16:19] <Night_Elf> Psy-T: that command above has to be done using admin permitions, so you might need to add "sudo" in front of that line
[16:19] <coalesce> i have a desktop terminal with terminal profile 999666
[16:19] <coalesce> i want to hide the username@domain in that profile
[16:19] <MaximLevitsky> rpattabi: but its very likely that camera just allows to read photos and thus work fully
[16:19] <coalesce> not default terminal instances
[16:19] <remoteCTRL> blue_anna: wise_crypt gave some interesting info that lead me for example to here: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/lucid/powerpc/gnome-volume-manager/2.24.1-3ubuntu1
[16:19] <xinaesth> For some reason my user is no longer in the sudoers file... was ok earlier (new install).  Can't think of anything I'd have done to remove myself from admin group etc...
[16:19] <fremapesua> When I try to get it I'm getting this message:  gpg: WARNING: unsafe ownership on configuration file `/home/fperez/.gnupg/gpg.conf'
[16:19] <acicula> chavez, dont know what to do about that
[16:20] <rpattabi> @MaximLevitsky: Thanks for the tip about protocol. I will check. I don't think I would need the features they give in windows application. I usually hate applications from hardware manufacturesrs :)
[16:20] <fremapesua> ANy ideas?
[16:20] <Psy-T> since I'm just messing with audio, someone suggested that backing up /etc/pulse and /etc/asound.conf should be enough.
[16:20] <oCean_> coalesce: prompt is in shell, not in terminal
[16:20] <naesojo> join #ubuntu-br
[16:20] <MaximLevitsky> rpattabi: in addition to that, you can pull out the flash card and read it in card reader
[16:20] <MaximLevitsky> rpattabi: this is usualy faster both in linux and windows
[16:20] <chavez> acicula, thanks anyways ;)
[16:21] <blue_anna> remoteCTRL: hal isn't installed in lucid though...
[16:21] <acicula> coalesce, thats fine, but the prompt is governed and set from within bash using the PS1/2 variables so if you want those changed make a script where you define them and have your terminal program call the script
[16:21] <Night_Elf> Psy-T: well, the entire contents of /etc/   is around 10M so you it's not that you will waste space or all
[16:21] <blue_anna> remoteCTRL: unless you installed it yourself
[16:21] <wise_crypt> remoteCTRL: which link i just give u the forum link i think you better file a bug about it
[16:21] <Psy-T> Oh, okay Night_Elf, thanks.
[16:21] <rpattabi> @MaximLevitsky: You mean 'reading the flash card in card reader is faster than reading directly from camera'?
[16:21] <fft> hello
[16:21] <gtryrty> hi everybody , i have a netbook i want to install ubuntu via usb i havent any idea for linux so i want to install second OS ( xp  and Ubuntu ) i downloaded ubuntu-10.04-desktop-i386 , is there any way to install ubuntu not datalost D:\ drive .. sorry my fluently eng.
[16:22] <acicula> coalesce, in gnome-terminal that would be "run a custom command" where you specify bash + some options to set the prompt
[16:22] <drizzt_> is it safe to copy /etc/skel/.bashrc to ~?
[16:22] <bazhang> gtryrty, unetbootin
[16:22] <remoteCTRL> wise_crypt: ive been struggling with that conclusion, yepp...
[16:22] <naesojo> #ubuntu-br
[16:22] <coalesce> so i can override the default PS1/PS2 variables with a custom command?
[16:22] <bazhang> naesojo, /join #ubuntu-br
[16:22] <remoteCTRL> blue_anna: humm... no more hal in lucid??
[16:22] <jrib> drizzt_: sure, users have that in their homes by default anyway
[16:22] <acicula> drizzt_, its what every use gets by default, it erases your own original .bashrc though
[16:22] <Night_Elf> drizzt_: yea. That's what happens when you create a new user. On that user's homedir, it's the /etc/skel that is copied.
[16:22] <acicula> *user
[16:23] <Psy-T> I tried to copy the /etc/ dir in Nautilus, but it says I don't have permissions to read it.
[16:23] <fft> anyone have experience with PLC's ?
[16:23] <fremapesua> Anyone available that can give me an idea on how to get the fingerprint from Launchpad?  I'm trying to follow the instructions on the web but unfortunately I'm not getting the fingerprint, instead I'm getting the following message:  gpg: WARNING: unsafe ownership on configuration file `/home/fperez/.gnupg/gpg.conf'
[16:23] <erUSUL> !gpgerr
[16:23] <fremapesua> Any idea?
[16:23] <blue_anna> remoteCTRL: it's not, unless its a different HAL than the xorg configuration can often refer to
[16:23] <coalesce> cool thanks guys!
[16:23] <jrib> fremapesua: why not address the warning and investigate the file's ownership
[16:23] <Psy-T> I'll follow the command you offerred me a moment ago instead, Night_Elf. :)
[16:24] <fremapesua> OK jrib  thx
[16:24] <Night_Elf> Psy-T: you need to have admin rights for that action. Open a command terminal and do:   sudo  cp -r -p /etc  /etc.savedbyme
[16:24] <Psy-T> Done, thanks. :)
[16:24] <Night_Elf> Psy-T: no problem
[16:24] <acicula> Psy-T, not every file in /etc is readable for users which is why you would get an error
[16:25] <mr_fribble> How do I fix this? http://img88.imageshack.us/img88/3916/timeg.png
[16:25] <gtryrty> bazhang thanks , unetbootin is doing live usb ? or can creat install option?
[16:25] <wise_crypt> remoteCTRL: #ubuntu-bugs might help if give the bug number
[16:25] <Psy-T> "sudo cp -r -p /etc   /etc.saved" is the one I did. Where did it save to?
[16:25] <acicula> mr_fribble, you need root privelidges
[16:25] <bluegoon> Howdy Ho
[16:25] <mr_fribble> acicula: I'm in root account.
[16:25] <bazhang> gtryrty, both
[16:25] <Night_Elf> Psy-T: directly at  /
[16:25] <blue_anna> remoteCTRL: actually, that whole application isn't installed on lucid (gnome-volume-manager)
[16:25] <mono> This is a message to all good guys out there! Please tell the UN that C.N. living in A-street.12.Germ. would love to see mindreading CANCELLED
[16:25] <mr_fribble> acicula: I tried doing sudo
[16:25] <acicula> mr_fribble, what program are you running?
[16:25] <naesojo> bazhang,  OBRIGADO
[16:25] <wise_crypt> gtryrty: both

[16:26] <gtryrty> bazhang thanks so much i am searching
[16:26] <blue_anna> !br | naesojo
[16:26] <mr_fribble> acicula: Changing the time clock.
[16:26] <remoteCTRL> wise_crypt: wow i didnt know that one! nice and thanks!
[16:26] <gtryrty> wise_crypt thanks you too
[16:26] <rpattabi> @MaximLevitsky: That means I can go ahead and get this kodak camera. I have a printer card reader. I will check the protocol thing about the model.
[16:26] <yotta911> Hi folks. Anyone can say me a visual html editor, like Adobe Dreamweaver.
[16:26] <Psy-T> Night_Elf: I don't think it worked there. I can't see a directory or a file named etc.saved at the root.
[16:26] <yotta911> ?
[16:26] <wise_crypt> gtryrty; gtryrty : no problem
[16:26] <rpattabi> @MaximLevitsky: Thanks!
[16:26] <Psy-T> *worked then.
[16:26] <blue_anna> is ubottu down?
[16:26] <blue_anna> br used to be defined
[16:26] <Pici> blue_anna: No. Why do you ask?
[16:26] <blue_anna> !pt | naesojo
[16:26] <Oliphaunt> so when I run update-grub, it says "Found Fedora release 8 (Werewolf) on /dev/sda6", but it doesn't add it to the boot menu
[16:27] <Pici> !br
[16:27] <yotta911> I tried KompoZer, but it's no longer developed
[16:27] <acicula> mr_fribble, if you start time & date from the administration menu does it not work there too?
[16:27] <Night_Elf> Psy-T: It has to work. I would find it very weird if it didn't
[16:27] <Pici> blue_anna: Seems to be working for me.  And it worked above too :)
[16:27] <mr_fribble> acicula: Nope, tried that. The unlock button is grayed out
[16:27] <drizzt_> аое
[16:28] <bluegoon> How do I disable IRC Quit/Join messages in XChat?
[16:28] <acicula> maybe your user needs adm privs
[16:28] <blue_anna> Pici: yeah but I had to bang-pt instead to get taht. a week ago I could bang-br  :)
[16:28] <acicula> under groups
[16:28] <mr_fribble> acicula: hmm? How do I fix it?
[16:28] <acicula> mr_daniel, if you have to start it as root though use gksu <program>
[16:28] <Pici> blue_anna: !br worked for you when you did it before. Look closer ;)
[16:28] <erUSUL> bluegoon: right click on the channel tab/name
[16:29] <Psy-T> Okay, Night_Elf. Found it by typing "ls" in terminal, But it's not visible in Nautilus for some reason.
[16:29] <acicula> mr_fribble, users and groups under administration
[16:29] <bluegoon> erUSUL, ok got it, what then?
[16:29] <Night_Elf> Psy-T: you did a   ls  /
[16:29] <acicula> and then just modify your user to have more privs
[16:29] <chavez> any ideas, how to customize xubuntu login screen? now i see some wallpaper and username is selectable, plus the panel in the bottom with system time, etc, i'd like to minimize it to maximum > no wallpaper, no username list, no time displayed, no asterixes for password entered
[16:29] <Night_Elf> yes ?
[16:29] <blue_anna> Pici: oo I think my iirc client has been having issues with not reporting all messages in time
[16:29] <blue_anna> Pici: if it worked
[16:29] <acicula> mr_fribble, to administrator
[16:29] <erUSUL> bluegoon: should be one of the options there. like hide>join/quit/parts
[16:29] <bluegoon> erUSUL, K I got it, thanks man :)
[16:30] <Psy-T> Night_Elf: just opened a terminal and typed ls.
[16:30] <bluegoon> erUSUL, got it, thanks dude, appreciate the help
[16:30] <Psy-T> without a slash.

[16:30] <mr_fribble> acicula: gksu time-admin, does not work
[16:30] <erUSUL> bluegoon: no problem
[16:30] <mr_fribble> acicula: it is still grayed out
[16:30] <Oliphaunt> wise_crypt: thanks
[16:30] <Night_Elf> Psy-T: that will list your homedir.  The "/" means that you want to see what's exactly there, at the "/", at the very start of the filesystem
[16:30] <wise_crypt> Oliphaunt: no problem
[16:31] <acicula> mr_fribble, then i dont know
[16:31] <sjm> yotta911: Bluefish and Quanta Plus
[16:31] <mr_fribble> acicula: I get this in the console output: http://pastebin.com/CQ7YyfrG
[16:31] <mr_fribble> acicula: is that the problem?
[16:31] <Purpley> Hey why cant I mod my windows key? in the keyboard shortcuts when I hit under terminal my windows key it doesnt detect it
[16:31] <acicula> mr_fribble, dont think so
[16:32] <yotta911> sjm: ok, but Bluefish isn't visual and quanta is Qt0based. Other suggestion?
[16:32] <Purpley> Well I should say ubuntu doesnt detect me hitting my windows key
[16:32] <blue_anna> Purpley: use xev and check taht it is registering as a windows key
[16:32] <sjm> yotta911: see the link I sent
[16:32] <erUSUL> Purpley: maybe you have the wrong keyboard model ?
[16:32] <drumline_> Purpley: that's because you need to get a keyboard with an Ubuntu key.
[16:32]  * bluag hi guys, i am an electronics engineering student (not US resident), and looking for internship in : IC dEsign (verilog,fpga..) company and/or software/IT company (i got programming skills) in europe or CA or USA. I know this is the best place where i can meet with hackers to talk and have an opportunity get a internship. (Since generally speaking, all people are hacker here) So I might give u information about myself if i am lucky enough :)(sorry to bother
[16:33] <drizzt_> Purpley, have you correct WinKey layout?
[16:33] <acicula> bluag, offtopic & spam?
[16:33] <Purpley> drizzt I might not
[16:33] <bluag> acicula
[16:33] <bluag> sorry
[16:33] <LjL> bluag: no, this place is for Ubuntu support, it's not the best place to meed with hackers to talk.
[16:33] <erUSUL> Purpley: 105 keys pc keyboard
[16:33] <drizzt_> Purpley, you cannot create a shortcut with it?
[16:33] <blue_anna> Purpley: please use xev and tell me what it says when you press it -- if xev doesn't detect it, then the problem is that your keyboard is dead
[16:34] <blue_anna> :)

If i boot from a live CD how do i mount my home that is encrypted? I tried using "cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/sda6 crypt" I enter my passphrase but it says that i have no key available with this passphrase. Thans kin advance
[16:44] <Purpley> It says "l"
[16:44] <Oliphaunt> I forgot your nick, but thanks again for your help -- managed to boot fedora now.

[16:45] <drizzt_> is there some text editor for ansi terminal?
[16:45] <blue_anna> Purpley: not to be thick about it but, you held the Windows key while pressing L ? if so I do't know that I can help you .. at least not getting keyboard shortcuts working on taht key
[16:45] <yotta911> biborn: this installer is a .deb file?
[16:46] <Purpley> on xev?

[16:47] <Odd-rationale> Purpley: sometimes it works when you go staight to gconf-editor, and go the the keyboard shorcuts and manually type <Super_L>L or what ever.
[16:47] <wise_crypt> Nokio: might help http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/ubuntu-mounting-your-encrypted-home-from-livecd/
[16:47] <blue_anna> Purpley: ok :) good, taht's progress no? Now, are you happy with that? or did you want to reassign the windows key to do something pressed by itself?
[16:47] <jrib> arosen1: the vbox in the repos doesn't have usb support
[16:47] <drizzt_> Purpley, Gnome dsen't support opening application menu with a key :)

[16:49] <DemonicDroid> im using Ubuntu 10.4
[16:49] <coalesce> alright, if i want to run an instance of terminal with a different .bashrc file, say, .bashrc2, what do i put in the custom command box for gnome terminal?
[16:49] <blue_anna> biborn: the autoremove was just something to clean up the system after the remove step ..
[16:49] <erUSUL> arosen1: the ose version in repos does not support usb passthrough. for that you need the version from the oracle's website

[17:10] <Mr-KorOl> when I run dpgk-scanpackages, it reports an error on some files
[17:10] <guntbert> coalesce: usually you use sudo just for a single command, so you won't see the root prompt at all
[17:10] <Pici> Christos: It should be all the way at the bottom of the Applications menu
[17:10] <Mr-KorOl> one each time

[17:11] <tavis> drizzt_: the weird thing is it registers in gnome.  But does not show when i run xlsfonts.  Any ideas?
[17:11] <drizzt_> Green_, with default modules it can take 8 hours
[17:11] <Mr-KorOl> howe can I ask dpkg-scanpackages to avoid errors?
[17:11] <Christos> thanks alot

(FYI, system was upgraded from 9.10)
[17:30] <ekennedy> I meant 15 seconds after startup.  Thanks.
[17:30] <wise_crypt> JenniferB: alt + f2
[17:30] <guntbert> ekennedy: don't rely on runlevels though
[17:30] <gicaprazzz> bleah, how to reinstall my videocard driver? thanks
[17:31] <chavez> is plymouth neccessary to boot the system up, ori can safely get rid of it?
[17:31] <psusi> ekennedy: filesystem is emitted by mountall when it successfully mounts your filesystems
[17:31] <ekennedy> i have a sw raid filesystem.  Could that be an issue
[17:31] <Purpley> tobiasz, But how do I make my background display weather data rss feeds etc.
[17:32] <psusi> ekennedy: what do you mean?
[17:32] <psusi> ekennedy: you mean your root filesystem is ON a software raid?
[17:32] <ekennedy> not sure just wondering what would keep the mountall from posting its status
[17:32] <ekennedy> yes root is mirrored.
[17:32] <Adamantus10> How do I copy something to user/lib/ ?
[17:32] <Wilhelm-Scream> What's the best way to install gnome shell?
[17:32] <psusi> ekennedy: if it fails the boot should halt and you should get the message on the system console
[17:32] <jereanon> I have setup a virtualbox VM running windows 7 on my ubuntu machine. I have to use a WINDOWS ONLY (f5) VPN for work. I would like to tunnel traffic through my ubuntu (host) box through the windows 7 (VM) machine. Can anyone point me in the right direction to achieve this?
[17:33] <llutz> Adamantus10: sudo cp stuff /usr/lib/
[17:33] <Adamantus10> usr/lib that is
[17:33] <guntbert> Wilhelm-Scream: use you favourite package manager
[17:33] <guntbert> *your
[17:33] <ekennedy> boots fine and I can ssh to the machine but the runlevel is unknown and a number of services are not started
[17:33] <Adamantus10> llutz, Is there no way in the file manager?
[17:34] <psusi> ekennedy: just because sshd is running does not mean it booted fine... did you go look at the console?
[17:34] <Purpley> tobiasz, But how do I make my background display weather data rss feeds etc.
[17:34] <blue_anna> isn't gnome-shell designed for consumer boxes not full computers? I mean it wastes like a third of the screen .. on a 10" screen that's just great but on a full size monitor it's a pain
[17:34] <psusi> ekennedy: or check syslog
[17:34] <tobiasz> Purpley take a look at screenlets, docklets etc
[17:34] <ekennedy> I don't have a console (e.g., no video card).  I can put one in to watch.  I have looked at syslog and didn't see anything obvious.
[17:36] <gicaprazzz> how to reinstall my video driver?
[17:37] <mr_fribble> How do I set set PHPIniDir in ubuntu?
[17:37] <wise_crypt> llutz, : is "gksudo nautilus" save ?
[17:37] <tobiasz> Adamantus10 you need to rightclick on a folder and choose enter as root, there's a script for it in Ubuntu Tweak, google Ubuntu tweak
[17:38] <llutz> wise_crypt: imho there is no reason to run GUI-apps as root
[17:38] <tobiasz> wise_crypt nvidia-settings?
[17:38] <ManDay> Does anyone know how to run all pulse audio through JACK in a final step (esp. the equalizer) ?
[17:38] <wise_crypt> llutz: hmmm
[17:38] <trism> ekennedy: this is a known bug, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/upstart/+bug/543506 possible solution at the end of the thread (seems reasonable to me, but hard to test because it doesn't happen every time)
[17:39] <arunkumar413> hi help me to debug my Huawei EC325 CDMA 1x modem
[17:39] <sjm> ManDay: rip out pulseaudio and only use ALSA?
[17:39] <tobiasz> Adamantus10 in Ubuntu tweak go to system>nautilus>context menu and enable open folder with root priviledges
[17:39] <ManDay> and then ALSA into jack?
[17:39] <ManDay> Is it an easy install?
[17:39] <sjm> ManDay: yes
[17:39] <ManDay> yes to what?
[17:39] <wise_crypt> tobiasz: ask the channel please
[17:40] <sjm> ManDay: alsa into jack
[17:40] <ManDay> k
[17:40] <ManDay> Does anyone here have JACK (esp the equalizer) installed and got it to work?
[17:40] <Adamantus10> Newbie q: Why when I use the run box does /usr/lib not work?
[17:41] <Adamantus10> I get could not open location
[17:41] <tobiasz> wise_crypt I mean, when your monitor's resolution is not recognized correctly you need to sudo nvidia-settings to set it permamently to work with desired resolution
[17:41] <arunkumar413> hi friends i cannot connect to internet using my Huawei EC325 cdma 1x modem
[17:41] <gicaprazzz> I intend to give a beer to anyone who may help me!
[17:41] <shane2peru> does anyone know if it is possible to plug in two monitors to one Nvidia GT9500 video card?  I have two normal monitors, not hdmi
[17:41] <rocket16> Friends, cml files can be created with Avogadro, but is there any software only for viewing them, and not editing them? (I am a Science Student, and want such a tool).
[17:41] <BlackFire> i m using lucid lynx and i have created a wireless connection but noone is able to connect to it, please help me out
[17:41] <mr_fribble> How do I set set PHPIniDir in ubuntu?
[17:42] <Adamantus10> shane2peru, If it has the connectors then why not?
[17:42] <shane2peru> Adamantus10, well, it has one, and a hdmi, is there any way around that?
[17:42] <a5h15h> how can i undo pppoeconf
[17:42] <wise_crypt> tobiasz: sudo nvidia-xconfig
[17:42] <Adamantus10> shane2peru, You need dual dvi / hdmi for that I think
[17:43] <strange> is it possible to start an application without allowing it to make sound?
[17:43] <shane2peru> Adamantus10, is there any adaptors to dumb it down to regular monitors?
[17:43] <shane2peru> Adamantus10, I have never setup dual monitors, but would like to, and now I have two monitors, but they are both normal
[17:44] <arunkumar413> cant execute this command "stop NM"
[17:44] <gicaprazzz> ce jigodii. nimeni nu incearca macar. de ce mai e support?
[17:44] <shane2peru> Adamantus10, so probably going to need an adaptor or second video card??
[17:44] <ManDay> Does anyone here have JACK (esp the equalizer) installed and got it to work?
[17:44] <arunkumar413> it says unknown job:NM
[17:44] <rocket16> Strange: Sure, you can. Click the Sound Applet, and select Sound Preferences. Now, go to Applications TAB, and in the list of application (running), mute the App you don't want to make sound.
[17:45] <s4z3n> I just installed ubuntu 10.04 on my netbook and now I don't have a right-click function when I try to click the background, the panels option and configuration is gone, the ability to unlock the panel is gone, and a couple of other things that Im not really sure how to describe.
[17:45] <elux> hey guys
[17:45] <elux> what are the differences between ubuntu 10.04 desktop and 10.04 server?
[17:45] <rocket16> s4z3n: Use Reset Panels then,
[17:45] <strange> rocket16: the program i want to disable is full screen and once i start it i cant go to that sound thing
[17:45] <s4z3n> is that in the admin drop menue?
[17:45] <Adamantus10> shane2peru, You can get basic graphics cards with dual inputs pretty cheap these days.
[17:45] <strange> its a game called "world of goo"
[17:46] <void^> elux: different set of packages installed by default.
[17:46] <wise_crypt> arunkumar413: NM= network manager right ? just klick the icon and disable it
[17:46] <shane2peru> Adamantus10, ahh, ok, so I need more hardware.  Thanks!
[17:46] <rocket16> elux: The Desktop is for day to day PC USe, for Laptops, Desktops etc. The Server version is containing apps for optimal server performance.
[17:46] <elux> void^: gotcha.. thats it tho .. just packages by default?
[17:46] <rocket16> Bye all.
[17:46] <void^> elux: yes, you can install the server version and turn it into a desktop.
[17:47] <elux> ok cool. i was just making sure its a difference with the packages. thx
[17:47] <Njh> is there any easy way to convert binary sources into debian packages?
[17:49] <guntbert> Njh: what are "binary sources" ? thats a contradiction in itself
[17:49] <gibbs> hi
[17:50] <costre> guntbert,  I'd say it's just to emphasize that it's the source code for the binary, not some other form of "source"
[17:50] <Purpley> How do I install desklets?
[17:50] <Njh> guntbert: i have a program that i have created that creates a binary, but i want to be able to make it a debian package so that i dont have to manually do dependencies
[17:50] <elux> is it simple to upgrade to newer versions of ubuntu as they come out?
[17:50] <gibbs> My son is teaching me ubuntu net book edition i love it
[17:51] <costre> gibbs, Gratulations :)
[17:51] <edbian> elux, Yes.  It's all handled in the update manager
[17:51] <elux> well i dont use the desktop .. id only use the server edition
[17:51] <guntbert> Njh: sorry - I have to go :-(
[17:52] <costre> gibbs, I'm thinking of getting a netbook myself, I have only used one as a server before
[17:52] <edbian> elux, It still is :)
[17:52] <xen> When I right click in Ubuntu 10.04 netbook remix there is no Rename?
[17:52] <costre> Whick I can recommend btw, netbooks are the perfect servers!
[17:52] <Purpley> How do I install desklets?
[17:52] <Njh> gunbet: its ok, do u know what im talking about though? or is my wording bad
[17:52] <edbian> elux, apt-get dist-upgrade or something like that once there is a new dist available
[17:52] <jereanon> I have setup a virtualbox VM running windows 7 on my ubuntu machine. I have to use a WINDOWS ONLY (f5) VPN for work. I would like to tunnel traffic through my ubuntu (host) box through the windows 7 (VM) machine. Can anyone point me in the right direction to achieve this?
[17:52] <void^> Njh: try checkinstall. but if you want proper dependency handling or postinstall scripts, just look for a guide on creating deb packages.
[17:53] <gibbs> hi xen i found the same. are you trying to rename shortcuts etc
[17:53] <Christos> anyone know where i can get  an alterative way to get power strip what it does it brings up brighness my monitor is too dark so i use that on windows to bring it up.
[17:53] <xen> gibbs: I am trying to rename files etc.
[17:53] <Christos> but im on linux now so i cant figure how to do that on here.
[17:53] <gicaprazzz> how to reactivate graphic effects? (they stopped working today for the first time)
[17:53] <edbian> jereanon, Just to be clear I don't think you can do that.  Aside from that though, how does the VPN know your operating system?
[17:53] <Wilhelm-Scream> OK, I've installed gnome shell
[17:54] <Wilhelm-Scream> now what?
[17:54] <jereanon> edbian -- It uses a browser plugin that only works on windows machines
[17:54] <Wilhelm-Scream> Do I acess it from the login menu?
[17:54] <edbian> jereanon, I see.
[17:54] <Njh> void^: i have been able to create debs using the source files, but i need to be able to package a binary into one
[17:55] <xen> Is the "Rename" removed from Ubuntu Netbook Remix?
[17:55] <a5h15h> from where can i download network manager for 9.10..
[17:55] <jpds> xen: It's Ubuntu Netbook Edition now.
[17:55] <Christos> anyone know where i can get something a program to bring up my brightness?
[17:55] <void^> Njh: i don't see how it makes a difference.
[17:55] <Jonta> This might seem like an odd question: Where is ratpoison's configuration file? It's not in ~/.ratpoisonrc
[17:55] <ManDay> Does anyone here have JACK (esp the equalizer) installed and got it to work?
[17:56] <Njh> void^: what do you mean?
[17:56] <Purpley> How do I set up conky?
[17:56] <Wilhelm-Scream> Set up conky.rc
[17:56] <Pici> ManDay: #ubuntustudio uses it by default iirc,
[17:56] <xen> jpds: there is no Rename in Netbook edition?

[17:58] <drizzt_> wise_crypt, it's badly translated, partially outdated and generally W.i.P
[17:58] <edbian> gicaprazzz, This is it.
[17:58] <psusi> aerokid240: huh?  how is netbook compared to netbook?  that doesn't make sense

[18:09] <xen> I see Rename button now In Documents folder...but in another Partition there is NO rename button
[18:10] <blue_anna> Purpley: I can't say, even the "updated" link there for the newer versions are all old versions
[18:10] <Dave915> costre any idea why this is happening
[18:10] <blue_anna> Purpley: generally, if instructions are for an older version of ubuntu and you also need help installing it, then the instructions are too old to be useful .. at elast it seems that way for the things I look for :P
[18:10] <Psy-T> I did "man pulseaudio" in a terminal window, How do I 'close' the manual and get back to that same terminal?

[18:11] <s4z3n> I just updated from 9.10 to 10.04 and there arent panel options and I can't use the rightclick on the desktop background. It's like Ive been locked out from the machine. I was told to reset my panels and googling that I entered in this command "rm -rf .gnome .gnome .gconf .gconfd .metacity" and nothing happened. I just want to get it back to the way it was before the upgrade without having to completely restore the system
[18:11] <jorge_> hi  anybody can help me about exaile sound
[18:11] <llutz> Psy-T: and then read "man man"
[18:11] <Waldir> s4z3n: I think I'm having the same problem, I can't see any menus
[18:11] <costre> Dave915, Nope, just getting an idea of how many experiencing trouble with upgrade vs complete reinstallation :) My feeling is upgraded systems is buggier than systems installed from scratch. Could be my imagination :)
[18:12] <Waldir> I'll try that command
[18:12] <Daekdroom> manual's manual?
[18:12] <edbian> s4z3n, open a terminal and type this: "nautilus&"

[18:21] <Waldir> edbian: "Package libgnome-desktop-2-11 is not available, but is referred to by another package.

[18:47] <ekennedy> I posted earlier about problems with runlevel unknown in 10.04.  My server does not have a console.  Following a lead from trism I commented out all "console output" statements in upstart scripts (for me, mountall.conf, rc.conf, rc-sysinit.conf, ufw.conf).  This seems to have resolved the problem.  Does that seem reasonable?  If so, should I post this somewhere of others to find?
[18:47] <cn1109> same error for sites-available.
[18:47] <wise_crypt> gicaprazzz: i'll wait the developer to update it :p

[18:58] <cristian_c> rooligan, I have to activate the sounds, do not disable
[18:58] <mc__> ZenMasta, when you start them from the terminal is there any interesting information?
[18:59] <cristian_c> I use Xfce
[18:59] <a3ist> Anyone have a favorite IDE for python under gnome?  Or should I just stick with gedit and compile via CLI
[18:59] <UnknownLobster> XFCE! Cool!
[18:59] <cristian_c> Xubuntu
[18:59] <rooligan> cristian_c: Oh, I can't help you
[18:59] <UnknownLobster> Prefer gnome myself
[18:59] <cristian_c> ok
[18:59] <UnknownLobster> on my desktop
[18:59] <UnknownLobster> Doubt any window manager will run on 266mhz Pentium MMX
[18:59] <a3ist> joined the convo late, but if someone was asking about alternative desktop environments, I like LXDE a lot for older hardware
[19:00] <a3ist> UnknownLobster, many WM's will.  DE's, not so much
[19:00] <Semtex> hey guys I'm a bit concerned with the hard drive activity of my ubuntu 9.10 install. Does anyone know what might be causing excessive hard drive activity when idle?
[19:00] <cristian_c> on channel # xubuntu told me to ask here
[19:00] <UnknownLobster> Ok thanks
[19:00] <UnknownLobster> I Heard the mention of LXDE
[19:00] <pure_hate> cristian_c, You have to modify/create  /etc/gdm/custom.conf
[19:00] <UnknownLobster> what would that be like?
[19:00] <mc__> Semtex, prefetching
[19:00] <wise_crypt> !best
[19:00] <ZenMasta> mc__ i'm not starting from terminal... how do I try from the terminal
[19:01] <a3ist> There are a lot of tiling window managers that will run on old hardware; dwii, awesome, i3, ratpoison, wmii, xmonad
[19:01] <UnknownLobster> thanks!
[19:01] <cristian_c> !pastebin
[19:01] <pure_hate> cristian_c, http://www.ibiblio.org/oswg/oswg-nightly/oswg/en_US.ISO_8859-1/articles/gdm-reference/gdm-reference/x135.html
[19:01] <mc__> ZenMasta, open the terminal (Applications - Accessoires - Terminal) and type "sudo synpatic" into it
[19:02] <UnknownLobster> I'll try some in my command line install
[19:02] <s4z3n> ok so I got it to work
[19:02] <s4z3n> I think it was smj who sent me the fix
[19:02] <s4z3n> thanks man
[19:02] <a3ist> UnknownLobster, there are generally two different styles of window manager; "stacking" ones that have overlapping or free floating windows, like Gnome/KDE/XFCE/etc
[19:02] <Semtex> thanks for the reply mc__ is there anything I can do to improve it?
[19:02] <a3ist> and tiling window managers, that simply arrange things on the screen to use all of the area
[19:02] <ZenMasta> mc__ it says segmentation fault
[19:02] <prodcutnews> someone help me with pppoeconf ?
[19:02] <a3ist> generally the tiling ones have much lower requirements because they're not rendering multiple layers or animations
[19:03] <UnknownLobster> so 800x600 would be alright for a tiling window manager
[19:03] <a3ist> sure
[19:03] <delac> on boot before splash my screen flickers several (~10) times in rapid order. The flicker is just black screen getting dimmer and lighter. How to make it stop?
[19:03] <UnknownLobster> thanks a3ist
[19:03] <mc__> ZenMasta, what version of Ubuntu are you using?
[19:04] <ZenMasta> mc__ 10.04 just installed from live cd yesterday
[19:04] <a3ist> Here's the thing:  Generally speaking, tiling window managers aren't "flashy".  You can make them look good, but their main focus is on functionality, and they're geared more towards power users; sysadmins, programmers, and the like.  They don't have the notification bars, control panel guis, etc.
[19:04] <UnknownLobster> oh right
[19:04] <mc__> Semtex, I'm afraid not, though prefetching should only result in reads, maybe you can find some software which shows what applications cause the disk usage
[19:05] <mc__> maybe someone in here knows one?
[19:05] <a3ist> as far as older hardware goes, if you still want a relatively normal desktop gui, with menus and windows, I'd recommend LXDE first and foremost.  Run fantastic on this same laptop I'm typing from right now.
[19:05] <cristian_c> pure_hate, http://paste.ubuntu.com/440981/    I also saw the link I've been through but there are no options to select the startup and login sounds apparently
[19:05] <Semtex> I tryed iotop
[19:05] <jc_> mc__, system monitor does
[19:05] <UnknownLobster> but a tililng window manage would be okay for just a web browser and possible a WiCD config screen
[19:05] <synesp> what is the difference between deluser and userdel?????
[19:05] <reViSe> Hello - I just installed a lot of updates today and before this my wireless was working fine, now i am getting ~75% packet loss when pinging my router. I am using the ASUS wifi AP solo. Any ideas?
[19:05] <prodcutnews> can u help me with configuring  internet over ethernet card ?
[19:05] <a3ist> UnknownLobster, you bet
[19:05] <mc__> ZenMasta, well it looks like you had bad luck, you can not really do something against a segmentation fault besides trying to reinstall the packages
[19:06] <pure_hate> cristian_c, you didnt read very well
[19:06] <pure_hate> cristian_c, Greeter=bin/gdmlogin --disable-sound
[19:06] <prodcutnews> can u help me with configuring  internet over ethernet card ?
[19:06] <Pici> synesp: deluser and adduser are friendlier front-ends to userdel and useradd, and generally should be used.
[19:06] <ZenMasta> mc__ how can I reinstall the packages if I can't load the package manager or perform similar commands in a terminal without the same error
[19:06] <UnknownLobster> Woah!
[19:07] <PlasmaSheep> I have a logitech mx5500 keyboard. I have a dongle for this keyboard which is attached to my computer via usb. For the past few weeks using 10.04, all has worked well. However, in order to properly pair the keyboard with the computer now, I must remove the dongle from the port and manually pair them. The mouse works fine, however.
[19:07] <ZenMasta> mc__ ie, sudo apt-get install mysql5  i got segmenation faulty tree... 50%
[19:07] <Pici> synesp: They do many of the things that you would take for granted. For example, when creating a user, adduser will copy files from /etc/skel/, set the default shell to /bin/bash rather than sh, etc.
[19:07] <a3ist> UnknownLobster, a great resource for finding out about different window managers is the arch linux wiki at http://wiki.archlinux.org/, since arch linux doesn't come with one preinstalled; users decide if they want one and then pick whichever one they like.
[19:07] <UnknownLobster> thanks
[19:07] <a3ist> its geared towards arch, of course, but will still give a lot of good info about the advantages/disadvantages of different environments
[19:07] <UnknownLobster> Now how to install arch from windows
[19:07] <mc__> ZenMasta, whoa well now the only thing I can think of is using dpkg
[19:08] <UnknownLobster> My laptop doesn't have a bootable CD Drive
[19:08] <AhmedBH> hi
[19:08] <ZenMasta> mc__ i dont know what that is
[19:08] <a3ist> UnknownLobster, got a usb port?
[19:08] <ZenMasta> mc__ do I need to reinstall?
[19:08] <AhmedBH> Why i cant connect my PC to a wifi router i mean on previous Karmic it worked fine..
[19:08] <UnknownLobster> doubt my 1998 Toshiba will support usb booting
[19:08] <a3ist> UnknownLobster, most major distros support bootable USB installs these days
[19:08] <a3ist> hmm
[19:08] <UnknownLobster> It was a very propiertary system
[19:09] <mc__> ZenMasta, well since apt-get is broken that would probably be  the best idea
[19:09] <a3ist> I'm not as familiar with it but you could look into net booting
[19:09] <mc__> maybe you should check your CD for errors
[19:09] <ZenMasta> mc__ thanks , but very lame
[19:09] <UnknownLobster> well I gotta get a Floppy drive for it anyway
[19:09] <a3ist> UnknownLobster, could you use a removable / external CD drive just to get the basic distro installed?
[19:09] <reViSe> Hello - I just installed a lot of updates today and before this my wireless was working fine, now i am getting ~75% packet loss when pinging my router. I am using the ASUS wifi AP solo. Any ideas?
[19:09] <UnknownLobster> (to edit the bios stuff)
[19:09] <ZenMasta> mc__ guess I'll use the mini cd next time instead of the live
[19:10] <synesp> when i install lighttpd.. apache gets installed.. why?
[19:10] <thewolf> what is the package name for the Ubuntu Netbook Edition?
[19:10] <mc__> ZenMasta, personally I never had problems with the live cd, but try burning it at a slower speed
[19:10] <UnknownLobster> hmmm
[19:10] <a3ist> !unr| thewolf
[19:10] <ZenMasta> me neither until this version
[19:11] <cristian_c> pure_hate, ok, thanks but "Full path and name of the greeter executable followed by optional arguments."
[19:11] <root_> hello
[19:11] <UnknownLobster> root_ hello
[19:11] <cristian_c> pure_hate, what are the optional arguments?
[19:11] <thewolf> ubottu: I enablled the it in Tweak hoping I would be able to switch to the unity interface... it just screwed up my system
[19:11] <mc__> ZenMasta,  hopefully it will work better next time :)
[19:12] <ZenMasta> yep me too, thanks
[19:12] <psusi> thewolf: a quick apt-cache search -n netbook turns up ubuntu-netbook-remix...
[19:12] <AhmedBH> Whats the best IRC client ? shouldnt be related to KDE i hate buggy stuff :P ?
[19:12] <reViSe> Hello - I just installed a lot of updates today and before this my wireless was working fine, now i am getting ~75% packet loss when pinging my router. I am using the ASUS wifi AP solo. Any ideas?
[19:12] <a3ist> !best | AhmedBH
[19:12] <root_> +i
[19:12] <cristian_c> pure_hate, I have to select sounds that are part of a theme
[19:12] <AhmedBH> ohh
[19:12] <pure_hate> cristian_c, I have no idea but I looked in gdm.conf and there are tons of options you can set including start sounds
[19:13] <a5h15h> I've installed network manager ..but the applet icon does not appear..what should i do
[19:13] <pure_hate> cristian_c, well yeah, you have to provide the path to the sound
[19:13] <UnknownLobster> AhmedBH Xchat
[19:13] <UnknownLobster> Its multi-distro
[19:13] <ZenMasta> mc__ quick search on the forum revealed the solution
[19:13] <ZenMasta> mc__ sudo rm /var/cache/apt/*.bin
[19:13] <AhmedBH> XChat-GNOME 0.26.1 thats what i am on !
[19:13] <xangua> AhmedBH: deppends of what you like, i use pidgin becaus it supports a lot of protocols :)
[19:13] <mc__> defintely x-chat on gnome
[19:13] <a3ist> AhmedBH, it depends on too many factors.  Do you want low footprint?  There are console-based irc clients like irssi.  Want a normal, popular client?  Xchat is popular here
[19:13] <mc__> ZenMasta, and that worked?
[19:13] <cristian_c> pure_hate, ok, I will look for in gdm.conf
[19:13] <ZenMasta> yep
[19:13] <PlasmaSheep> I have a logitech mx5500 keyboard. I have a dongle for this keyboard which is attached to my computer via usb. For the past few weeks using 10.04, all has worked well.

[19:13] <AhmedBH> a3ist: then i am on a right place
[19:14] <mc__> very interesting, do they also explain what causes the error?
[19:14] <ZenMasta> it linked to another post... didn't care to read it since I was going to reinstall anyway
[19:14] <AhmedBH> a3ist: i just cant connect my pc to a wifi,,, it was fine few weeks ago and since i have installed this LTS i am completely unable to why?

[19:15] <BitWraith> I updated this machine, and the update broke my wireless. Is there any way (besides compiling it myself) I can get the 2.6.31 kernel back?
[19:16] <reViSe> BitWraith that hgappened to me too!!!
[19:16] <reViSe> bitwraith: is your wireless connecting, but not working?

[19:17] <a5h15h> how does one add network manager applet icon?
[19:17] <xangua> a5h15h: do you have a notification area in the panel¿
[19:17] <a3ist> BitWraith, AhmedBH, brb.  Afk a minute.
[19:17] <AhmedBH> Okay
[19:18] <cristian_c> pure_hate, I looked gdm.conf but I did not understand how I write the line custom.conf. Sorry but I'm pretty noob on this topic

[19:19] <a5h15h> xangua, the network manager applet icon doesnt exist in that list
[19:19] <ssma> xangua,  ?
[19:19] <xangua> a5h15h: i said #launch, not add
[19:20] <Lemming^> hey my volume keys xf86volumelower etc. works fine, but they're increasing/decreasing volume too much, can I make them lower/raise volume less per click?

[19:20] <AhmedBH> wait
[19:20] <a5h15h> xangua, should i select applet launcher
[19:21] <a3ist> AhmedBH, you need to do "iconfig -a" to see ALL the interfaces, not just the currently activated ones

[19:23] <GRANDIUS> how to do this?
[19:23] <a3ist> AhmedBH, pastebin "cat /etc/network/interfaces"
[19:23] <GRANDIUS> Every time when ubuntu asks me to enter keyring
[19:23] <icyValk77> hiya *waves* Can a kind soul point me to a solution with ubuntu 10.04 broadcom netxtreme bcm5755m gigabit ethernet card dropping out after 5mins of use from clean boot ?
[19:23] <AhmedBH> okay

[19:24] <GRANDIUS> and after some minutes
[19:24] <GRANDIUS> it unlocks
[19:24] <AhmedBH> a3ist: http://paste.ubuntu.com/440990/
[19:24] <GRANDIUS> but I cant do anything after that
[19:24] <Pecker> do you guys think steam will ever be realeased for ubuntu

[19:26] <dmitry> how are you
[19:26] <AhmedBH> a3ist: currently i am connected to etho1 on ethernet
[19:26] <AhmedBH> should i ran ifconfig wlan0 up or ifconfig wlan1 up
[19:26] <dmitry> hello zenmasta
[19:26] <a3ist> AhmedBH, you can bring up the wlan0 interface without turning off the ethernet one
[19:26] <GRANDIUS> ???
[19:26] <AhmedBH> Good idea
[19:26] <a3ist> AhmedBH, it should be wlan0
[19:26] <GRANDIUS> guys please help
[19:26] <zmp> hello everyone
[19:26] <GRANDIUS> I googled, but no success
[19:26] <eug_> hi all; i want to upgrade from 32-bit 8.04 LTS to 64bit 10.04 LTS.  is there a way to do this via network?
[19:26] <kub0l> hi

[19:27] <acicula> GRANDIUS, disable avahi-daemon
[19:27] <thewolf> How do I tell the ternamial to remove anything that a particular source?
[19:27] <a3ist> AhmedBH, you might need to use sudo
[19:27] <GRANDIUS> acicule, how?
[19:27] <AhmedBH> okay
[19:27] <GRANDIUS> acicula, how?
[19:27] <blue_anna> where do dvb frequency tables come from?
[19:27] <AhmedBH> a3ist: DONE should i check ?
[19:28] <a5h15h> xangua, thanks a lot mate
[19:28] <sensae> Hello. I currently have an Ubuntu TwinView setup. I want to rotate only one monitor, is it possible?
[19:28] <acicula> GRANDIUS, startup manager
[19:28] <a3ist> AhmedBH, run "ifconfig" as normal and make sure the interface wlan0 is now up.  If it is, you should be able to use it to connect to wireless networks now.
[19:28] <acicula> under administration
[19:28] <a5h15h> xangua, i love trustworthy people like you...thanks
[19:28] <GRANDIUS> acicula, thanks! I'm gonna try it now
[19:29] <AhmedBH> a3ist: I did still saying connecting
[19:29] <eug_> anyone?  is there a way to upgrade hardy 32-bit to lucid 64-bit?
[19:29] <xangua> eug_: no
[19:29] <AhmedBH> a3ist: same as before couldnt connect
[19:29]  * ZenMasta is afk for a while
[19:29] <eug_> bummer
[19:29] <eug_> k, thanks
[19:29] <ross_> how do you keep your desktop up and running at all times?
[19:29] <eug_> i'll install over
[19:30] <GRANDIUS> acicula: heh, I dont have such item in menu
[19:30] <thewolf> http://ppa.launchpad.net/canonical-dx-team/une/ubuntu how do I remove the packages this source installed?
[19:30] <jc_> ross_, ??
[19:30] <GRANDIUS> only startup disc creator
[19:30] <ross_> jc_: well for example, i want my desktop running because I want to be able to access it remotely from my laptop
[19:30] <GRANDIUS> acicula: I have 10.04
[19:30] <GRANDIUS> ubuntu
[19:30] <zmp> anyone know whats the absolute path for irssi in ubuntu?
[19:31] <jc_> ross_, whats your problem exactly?
[19:31] <a3ist> AhmedBH, check /var/log/messages and see if anything shows up with more info.  You can use tail to get the last few results, or grep to find ones relating to wlan-
[19:31] <a3ist> AhmedBH, err wlan0
[19:31] <Gerwin> ross_, just don't turn it off?
[19:31] <ross_> jc_ : there is no problem i just want my desktop accessible from my laptop remotely at all times
[19:31] <BitWraith> zmp, does whereis irssi tell you?
[19:31] <ross_> gerwin: it goes on the suspension mode automacially
[19:31] <owenll> !plymouth
[19:31] <jc_> ross_, that will involve some networking work
[19:31] <acicula> GRANDIUS, edit your menu, its probably there already but needs to be enabled
[19:31] <jc_> i suggest SSH, not vnc.. vnc over ssh
[19:31] <ross_> gerwin: i don't want it to ever suspend itself, i just want it on
[19:32] <ross_> jc_ : how do you do it?
[19:32] <GRANDIUS> acicula: thanks, I already solved the problem!
[19:32] <Gerwin> ross_, System > Preferences > Power Management
[19:32] <jc_> ross_, you behind a router?
[19:32] <Dunge> Is there a way from a C/C++ application to detect if a ethernet cable is plugged? A bit like in Gnome showing the ethernet icon in the task bar when you plug to cable. I found some console commands, but I would prefer a signal/interruption or something instead of having a timer constantly running the command, save in file, parse the file, etc.
[19:32] <owenll> !grub
[19:32] <dmitry> someone who programmes in php
[19:32] <ross_> gerwin: ah let me try that
[19:32] <AhmedBH> a3ist: i am /var/log/messages here and so many things... kinda
[19:32] <prodcutnews> i had configured ppp over ethernet, but unable to ping dns servers , can someone please me ?
[19:32] <acicula> Dunge, ethernet driver perhaps?
[19:32] <a3ist> AhmedBH, you can use "sudo tail -n 50 /var/log/messages" to get the last 50 lines
[19:33] <acicula> Dunge, or maybe you can catch the event from dbus
[19:33] <ross_> gerwin: what is the spin down hard disk option?
[19:33] <AhmedBH> a3ist: http://paste.ubuntu.com/440994/
[19:33] <nootrope> just installed Ubuntu Netbook Edition (10.04) but can't seem to install the latest Sun Java plugin for browsers (Update 20). It only installs Update 18, is that normal?
[19:33] <Dunge> acicula : I want this to work for every drivers
[19:34] <acicula> Dunge, then use dbus i suppose
[19:34] <a3ist> AhmedBH, do "tail -n 200 /var/log/messages | grep wlan0"
[19:34] <Gerwin> ross_, if you're on a laptop, spinning down the harddisk saves power
[19:34] <Dunge> ok, i'm unfamliar with this
[19:34] <astrojp> Anyone happen to get the Logitech Webcam C120m to work on 10.04?
[19:34] <ross_> gerwin: thanks
[19:35] <AhmedBH> a3ist: nothing appeard
[19:35] <ross_> gerwin: I will leave my desktop on to see if this works...i want to be able to access it remotely that's why : )
[19:35] <acicula> Dunge, example http://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/platform-awareness-service-d-bus-interface-documentation/
[19:35] <BitWraith> so, I guess no one knows how to downgrade the kernel using apt?
[19:36] <acicula> BitWraith, downgrade how exactly
[19:36] <acicula> BitWraith, by default older revisions of the current kernel arent removed
[19:36] <BitWraith> meaning go back to the older kernel that worked
[19:36] <tendonstrength> Has anyone had troubles with Firefox scrolling really slowly on long pages in Lucid? It seems to spike the CPU. I'm using an NVIDIA video card which may be a factor also.
[19:37] <thewolf> Does anyone know how to remove all the packages this source http://ppa.launchpad.net/canonical-dx-team/une/ubuntu installed on my machine?
[19:37] <jc_> BitWraith, grub has elder kernels as options.
[19:37] <acicula> BitWraith, can you select it during boot? hold right shift
[19:37] <acicula> you can change the default kernel using startupmanager
[19:37] <courtni> i'm pretty new at this stuff... but where would i ind my computer's ip adress
[19:37] <ross_> courtni: ifconfig
[19:38] <ross_> courtni: open up a terminal and type in ifconfig
[19:38] <BitWraith> acicula, there zre two kernels in /boot, both of which appear in the grub menu... but neither one can operate my wireless
[19:38] <acicula> courtni, right click your network icon and select Connection information, note that an adress behind a dsl router is not the same as an external itnernet adress
[19:38] <BitWraith> I am sure there was an older kernel that got removed
[19:38] <xangua> thewolf: sudo ppa-purge ppa:canonical-dx-team/une
[19:38] <BitWraith> the xubuntu livecd runs 2.6.31
[19:39] <acicula> are you sure thats not an old alpha/beta release?
[19:39] <AhmedBH> a3ist: You there /
[19:39] <thewolf> xangua: sudo: ppa-purge: command not found
[19:40] <a3ist> AhmedBH, yeah just doing about 10 things at once :P
[19:40] <BitWraith> I don't think it is
[19:41] <xangua> thewolf: install ppa-purge then
[19:41] <Waldir> edbian: back :D
[19:41] <edbian> Waldir, Excellent
[19:41] <edbian> How's it going?
[19:41] <BitWraith> I would hate to have to reinstall just to fix whatever the updates broke... but I am running out of options
[19:41] <a3ist> AhmedBH, I'm writing up a query that will find logs relating to wlan0 for you.  Just need a few minutes
[19:41] <Waldir> edbian: for some reason I had to use webchat instead of chatzilla
[19:41] <Waldir> it wasn't able to connect this time
[19:41] <Waldir> weird
[19:41] <AhmedBH> a3ist: Okay thanks i will be here waiting :)
[19:41] <thewolf> xangua:install: cannot stat `ppa-purge': No such file or directory
[19:42] <BitWraith> is there a log that would tell me all the changes that were applied last time I updated?
[19:42] <thewolf> xangua: i think your on the right track thought
[19:42] <dmitry> since I install a program
[19:42] <lyrae> anyone uses gedit? there was a plugin where i could indent/un-indent a bunch of lines at the same time, but i cant find it anymore
[19:43] <xangua> sudo apt-get install ppa-purge, didn't work thewolf¿¿
[19:43] <YoJack> anyone know why i would get this eventhing i did a2enmod ldap
[19:43] <acicula> BitWraith, afaik even xubuntu shipped with a more recent kernel then that
[19:43] <YoJack>  Unknown Authn provider: ldap syntax error
[19:43] <Waldir> lyrae: I thought simply selecting the lines and hitting tab would work...
[19:43] <thewolf> xangua: you didn't tell me to do apt-get before... trying now
[19:43] <acicula> BitWraith, yeah there is a log in /var/log/apt
[19:43] <lyrae> Waldir, yes, but how do you bring them back?
[19:44] <YoJack> any apache2 guys here
[19:44] <Waldir> shift-tab
[19:44] <lyrae> oh
[19:44] <Waldir> :)
[19:44] <edbian> Waldir, Od
[19:44] <lyrae> no way hold on
[19:44] <llutz> YoJack: /j #httpd for apache-support
[19:44] <xangua> thewolf: i said install it :S
[19:44] <Waldir> edbian: ?
[19:44] <edbian> Waldir, Glad we got everything fixed!
[19:44] <lyrae> ....
[19:44] <edbian> Waldir, Odd about xchat
[19:44] <lyrae> Waldir, thanks for that, lol
[19:44] <Docolero> AhmedBH, a3ist, Just a thought - maybe WLAN is not on wlan0? On my laptop it's eth1 for example. No idea if this is anyhow helpfull for you
[19:44] <mneptok> !anyone | YoJack
[19:44] <scottj> With laptop+nvidia, how do you enable/disable an external monitor via command line? (tired ot launching nvidia config GUI every time I plugin an external monitor)
[19:44] <Waldir> lyrae: no problem :D
[19:44] <thewolf> xangua: E: Couldn't find package ppa:canonical-dx-team
[19:45] <xangua> thewolf: install PPA-PURGE
[19:45] <Waldir> edbian: fortunately i don't use IRC too often
[19:45] <AhmedBH> Docolero: well thats what i think can you help me with that cause i never had any issue with wifi
[19:45] <thewolf> xangua: sry... thx for being patineint with me...
[19:45] <Waldir> anyway let's hope it gets working later
[19:45] <a3ist> Docolero, according to his ifconfig -a and iwconfig output it is indeed wlan0; thanks for the offer though.  That is a common stumbling block.
[19:45] <philpem> thewolf: um, that's a PPA link; you add it with the Software Sources manager
[19:45] <BitWraith> acicula, I know... does wubi install an older version of xubuntu than the official release? I installed with wubi
[19:45] <Waldir> edbian: many thanks for all your help!
[19:46] <edbian> Waldir, Anytime!  That was fun!
[19:46] <AhmedBH> a3ist: whats the difference between a standard cd which is 700 MB ubuntu and a DVD which is over 4 GB ?
[19:46] <Docolero> a3ist, ok, I wasn't able to follow the chat to see if you already excluded this option
[19:46] <acicula> BitWraith, dunno about wubi really, but i doubt it
[19:46] <Waldir> edbian: lol, kinda... I'll come back if I have any other such problems :) do you stick around here usually?
[19:46] <thewolf> philpem: yes... but i want to be able to remove everything it installed
[19:47] <edbian> Waldir, All the time!
[19:47] <m8> Hi, there is some software like MaxVista or ZoneView? for use use my second PC as an extra monitor (extend the desktop on a second pc) Thanks in advice.
[19:47] <a3ist> AhmedBH, the dvd is going to have more of the common packages on it that can be installed without a network connection
[19:47] <Waldir> edbian: nice :D see you around then!
[19:47] <thewolf> xangua:Err http://archive.getdeb.net/ubuntu/ lucid-getdeb/apps ppa-purge 0.0.0.0+bzr46-1~getdeb1

[19:47] <thewolf> E: Unable to fetch some archives, maybe run apt-get update or try with --fix-missing?
[19:47] <FloodBot2> thewolf: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[19:47] <a3ist> AhmedBH, that's why the cd or dvd shows up in the Software Sources control panel
[19:47] <AhmedBH> a3ist: thats the only difference ? will it have KDE too ?
[19:47] <thewolf> :P
[19:47] <AhmedBH> oh
[19:48] <a3ist> AhmedBH, no; that's what Kubuntu is
[19:48] <xangua> thewolf: jum is getdeb still down¿¿ :S
[19:48] <AhmedBH> a3ist: Okay
[19:48] <a3ist> And Xubuntu has XFCE instead of gnome
[19:48] <thewolf> xangua: didn't install ....  I think get-deb is down again :(
[19:48] <marienz> m8: so was that a ubuntu question or a debian question? :)
[19:48] <xangua> thewolf: i though ppa-purge was already in lucid repos
[19:49] <m8> marienz, a linux question ;)
[19:49] <wise_crypt> !inof ppa-purge lucid
[19:49] <AhmedBH> a3ist: Can i install Lucid on a macbook pro  or on a mac ?
[19:49] <wise_crypt> !info ppa-purge lucid
[19:49] <AhmedBH> a3ist: will everything works well ?
[19:49] <marienz> m8: please don't ask the same question on all large linux support channels at the same time, our anti-spambot doesn't like it
[19:49] <thewolf> dang it...
[19:49] <a3ist> !macbook | AhmedBH
[19:50] <m8> marienz, ok! ;) but i'm searching many days for this witouth results :(
[19:50] <thewolf> xangua: apperantly not...
[19:51] <m8> Conoscete qualche programma come MaxiVista o ZoneView per usare il secondo pc come un monitor? per estendere il desktop sul monitor del portatile per esempio
[19:51] <m8> :)
[19:51] <m8> -_-
[19:51] <m8> sorry
[19:52] <m8> i have maded a disaster with paste :)
[19:52] <a3ist> AhmedBH, run this and pastebin:  "sudo grep -sir 'May 28.*wlan0' /var/log/*"
[19:52] <AhmedBH> okay
[19:52] <Guest48386> hello, i'm having a problem with wine. i want to completely uninstall it along with all settings and programs. i used the command "sudo aptitude purge wine" and it seems to work.. but when i reinstall wine my old settings and programs are still there!
[19:52] <a3ist> assuming that your localization makes the time stamps in your logs show up as May 28
[19:52] <aburrabeet> My laptop has 4GB ram equipped with 64bit ubuntu lucid but accesses only 2894M. How can use full RAM?
[19:53] <a3ist> whatever the timestamps show up as, use that to filter the results to just the ones from today
[19:53] <thewolf> xangua: get-deb's website is not coming up...
[19:53] <steez> so this is kinda silly, but how do i remove the first gigabyte from a really big log file? (filled up my HD over night :( )
[19:54] <AhmedBH> a3ist: http://paste.ubuntu.com/441005/
[19:54] <ohir> steez: man split (for logfile not in use)
[19:54] <jc_> aburrabeet, is your BIOS set to handle that much ram?
[19:54] <aarfeick> Anyone have trouble with usb-creator?
[19:54] <steez> kk
[19:55] <llutz> steez: tail -n
[19:55] <aburrabeet> jc_: yes windows vista HP 64 accesses full ram
[19:55] <llutz> err, tail -c
[19:55] <a3ist> AhmedBH, looks like a driver issue, as indicated by lines 5 through 7
[19:55] <ohir> steez: do you have spare space on that hdd left?
[19:55] <mdlueck> Any suggestions for which package to open a bug report against 10.04 hooked to a KVM switch making the mouse die for all machines on the KVM?
[19:55] <a3ist> AhmedBH, what wireless adapter are you trying to use
[19:56] <AhmedBH> a3ist: Its SMC and was working on 9.10....
[19:56] <a3ist> afk a min
[19:56] <g_maverick> alguém pode me informar como posso adquirir o cd do ubuntu 10 sem abaixar?
[19:56] <steez> zero ohir
[19:56] <steez> and it's not a production box, just a debug, so i can lose data
[19:56] <Gerwin> !es | g_maverick
[19:56] <steez> plus it's redudant in the log
[19:56] <kjcooler> Does anyone know how to change the permissions nautilus mounts an ext4 external harddrive
[19:57] <steez> left somthing running that was obscenely verbose
[19:57] <xangua> Gerwin: that's portuguese ....
[19:57] <xangua> !pt > g_maverick
[19:57] <Gerwin> xangua: Well sorry :(
[19:57] <Kjarri`> Hey
[19:57] <ross_> how do you rotate background pictures in ubutnu?
[19:57] <Gerwin> xangua: It looked Spanish to me ;)
[19:57] <mdlueck> ross: Use Gimp and rotate it?
[19:57] <a3ist> AhmedBH, pastebin "lspci"
[19:57] <kjcooler> Does anyone know how to change the permissions nautilus mounts an ext4 external harddrive, I want to be able to mount the drive so that any new files are created with permission of 0777
[19:58] <mdlueck> ross_: not ross, answer is the same still... ;-)
[19:58] <ohir> steez: dou you need content of this log?
[19:58] <AhmedBH> a3ist: http://paste.ubuntu.com/441009/
[19:58] <steez> i sort of want to see what happened around when the log filled up ohir
[19:59] <ZenMasta> trying to install from mini cd and during creationg of partition #1 it has been stuck at 33% for the last 10 minutes...
[19:59] <AhmedBH> a3ist: should i plug USB to some other USB PORT ?
[19:59] <Kjarri`> Is there anyone around that can give me some tips regarding "Alert! /dev/sdg1 not found. Dropping to a shell!" when I boot up from a live USB-stick?
[19:59] <mdlueck> kjcooler: I have done that sort of thing to a subtree (could be a drive) using ACL's
[19:59] <AhmedBH> a3ist: BRB a minute
[19:59] <Kjarri`> on a eeepc :)
[19:59] <a3ist> AhmedBH, I'm not really sure; I don't have a lot of experience with the USB wireless devices
[19:59] <ScatterBrain> How do I go about making my desktop start just like I have it right now - meaning when I start Ubuntu, all the apps that I have running on what ever workspace will come right back?
[19:59] <a3ist> !network | AhmedBH
[20:00] <ohir> steez: so use tail -c bytescount | ssh you@somehost gzip -9 > saved_logtail.tgz
[20:00] <ohir> steez then do sudo cp /dev/null > /log/file
[20:00] <mdlueck> kjcooler: If you are interested I could send you an example of how to change the UMASK of a subtree using ACL's
[20:01] <blue_anna> ohir: what?
[20:01] <blue_anna> ohir: that doesnt look right
[20:01] <ohir> steez: alternatively you may make check how many free space is left for root. If zero I'd suggest make some space by removing unnecesary package files left in cache by apt-get
[20:02] <blue_anna> steez: use System->Administration->Logfile Viewer
[20:02] <AhmedBH> a3ist: back :)
[20:02] <ohir> steez then do sudo cp /dev/null /log/file
[20:02] <ohir> blue_anna: you right
[20:02] <mdlueck> What is the way to open a bug against Ubuntu in general, when no specific package is known.... seems to be the base OS.
[20:02] <ohir> blue_anna: he likely will not do much with utils that need temp space
[20:02] <a3ist> AhmedBH, I'm not as familiar with usb network adapters and driver issues; I'd check the wiki.  I have to go out for a while; sorry I couldn't come up with something.
[20:02] <blue_anna> ohir: if you had correctly formatted that you would ahve destroyed his logs :( that's bad man, people get their ip address kicked form freenode for stuff like that
[20:03] <swarm> I thought recently, that Ubuntu got the ability to link multiple computers together to share processing power.. (cluster?) .. but can't find much info on it? am i calling it the wrong thing?
[20:03] <edbian> mdlueck, I'll help you find the package it's in.  What's the problem?
[20:03]  * wise_crypt is laughing
[20:03] <edbian> swarm, mpicher
[20:03] <ohir> blue_anna: what?
[20:03] <a3ist> AhmedBH I'd keep checking the logs with that grep command as you go along; it will give you the best diagnostics
[20:03] <blue_anna> oh you know what I mean
[20:03] <murphe> Does anyone know a repo I could get sun-java5-jdk from? (not java6)
[20:04] <swarm> edbian, thanks - googling
[20:04] <AhmedBH> a3ist: Okay
[20:04] <mdlueck> edbian: Thanks! Working with two different brands / models of KVM switches, when 10.04 boots up, it kills mouse for the entire KVM unit until the KVM is power cycled.
[20:04] <Janhouse> how can I recover deleted folder on Ubuntu Lucid?
[20:04] <ross_> so how do you rotate background pictures?
[20:04] <Janhouse> any nice tool?
[20:04] <MrKlown> did they ever fix ubuntu's install problem?
[20:04] <mdlueck> edbian: Work around is to plug the 10.04 box to a mouse directly
[20:04] <MrKlown> i'm asking before i redownload the current release
[20:04] <ohir> blue_anna: with all due respect, repeat your unix basics
[20:05] <Purpley> Can someone give a tut on setting up conky?
[20:05] <mdlueck> ross_: Open the graphic with Gimp, rotate, save as new name...
[20:05] <Janhouse> Purpley, sudo apt-get install conky
[20:05] <Janhouse> :D
[20:05]  * wise_crypt is pointing murphe to do sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jdk

[20:05] <murphe> wise_crypt: i need java5, not java6.
[20:06] <ohir> blue_anna: err. you right
[20:06] <ohir> blue_anna: err. but it was corrected soon enough
[20:06] <drogba> i have nvedia and driver is active . please help me
[20:07] <wise_crypt> murphe: source instalation
[20:07] <swarm> Janhouse, there is a tool..
[20:07] <swarm> trying to recall the name.... it was developed by the DoD...
[20:07] <swarm> foresight, or something like that...
[20:07] <ohir> blue_anna: just note that _both_ command would do what I intended it to do: truncat this /log/file to 0
[20:07] <Purpley> Janhouse, And how do i insert custom scripts?
[20:07] <Purpley> and run it
[20:07] <Naxci_035> turkish?azeri????fuck all armenian
[20:07] <Janhouse> Purpley, type man conky
[20:08] <mdlueck> drogba: I had the same thing today with the binary nVidia drivers. Solution on 10.04 was to copy/paste in the xconf.conf file the nvidia applet suppled and past into "sudo gedit" of said file.
[20:08] <drogba> who can help me
[20:08] <blue_anna> ohir: not quite man: (LANG=C && cp /dev/null > test) ==> cp: missing destination file operand after `/dev/null'\ Try `cp --help' for more information.
[20:08] <nicolas> hey guys.  I have a website file that has a French characters.  Some of them show up fine but in other instances, the same character shows up as a '?'.  If I open the file in nano, I see '?' but if I open the file in gedit I see the proper character.  Why is that?
[20:09] <MrKlown> i am praying they fixed the ubuntu installer... last time i tried to install it, it always froze
[20:09] <blue_anna> nicolas: what's your LANG variable set to?
[20:09] <MrKlown> even with the alternate download
[20:09] <ohir> blue_anna: :)) cp /dev/null /log/file was for that. '>' was a typo
[20:09] <ScatterBrain> VirusTB: Yes.
[20:09] <nicolas> blue_anna, # echo $LANG
[20:09] <nicolas> en_US.UTF-8
[20:09] <Naxci_035> fuck all ARMENIANNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN
[20:09] <llutz> blue_anna: so ohirs 1st command wouldn't have done anything and his 2nd works. so whats your point?
[20:09] <niko> §14
[20:10] <VirusTB> ScatterBrain,  thanks, i dont need to set BIOS or anything right?>
[20:10] <CantGetANick> HI all i am getting this message at ever boot how to remove this "The disk drive for /media/sda2 is not ready yet or not present. Continue to wait, press S to skip or M for manual recovery." I searched on google and ubuntu forums but no help ... any pointer s
[20:10] <ScatterBrain> VirusTB: nope....
[20:10] <swarm> Janhouse, it is called "foremost"
[20:10] <Janhouse> swarm, does it work with ext4?
[20:10] <blue_anna> nicolas: really utf-8 and you're getting ?'s .. any chance you could post this file online somewhere, or a part of it, where I can see it?
[20:10] <swarm> probably not very well
[20:11] <Purpley> http://pastebin.com/SKDYPM4h
[20:11] <ohir> llutz: it would do truncate too, just using '' from STOUT :)
[20:11] <swarm> ext3/4 are very hard to recover data from..
[20:11] <Purpley> Conky wont run
[20:11] <nicolas> blue_anna, sure, standby :)
[20:11] <Janhouse> fuck
[20:11] <Janhouse> sorry
[20:11] <swarm> Janhouse, pm me
[20:11] <Janhouse> Today I turned on my pc and no files on desktop anymore.
[20:11] <Janhouse> I thought that nautilus is dead but no

[20:11] <Janhouse> nothing in /home/my_user/Desktop
[20:12] <swarm> was it moved? :)
[20:12] <blue_anna> ohir: lol :)
[20:12] <Janhouse> no
[20:12] <Janhouse> that is the problem
[20:12] <Janhouse> I ran search
[20:12] <Janhouse> well, maybe I should run updatedb and then try locate
[20:12] <Janhouse> maybe that works better
[20:12] <swarm> history | grep desktop
[20:12] <Janhouse> give me a sec
[20:12] <tendonstrength> I found the answer to my firefox issue. It was scrolling very slowly.

[20:21] <djb1> Hi, can someone help me with an installation question?  I installed a program (Rubyripper) using a personal package archive, and it was successful, but the program is not showing up in the Applications menu.  I am using Ubuntu 9.10
[20:21] <akaustav> swarm: Let me see.
[20:21] <Krishnandu> Will that be all??
[20:22] <Purpley> http://pastebin.com/SKDYPM4h Conky gets this when I try to run it....
[20:22] <Krishnandu> How do I be sure that anyone doesn't del that??
[20:22] <Krishnandu> I'm the only operator
[20:22] <Krishnandu> and etc
[20:22] <Krishnandu> ??
[20:23] <Purpley> Is there a difference between sudo apt-get and sudo apitude?
[20:23] <VCoolio> djb1: right click the menu, then 'edit menu' and add it where you like it
[20:23] <Krishnandu> jc_, edbian, blue_anna Is that all?? How do I become sure anyoen doesn't gain permission?? Doesn't del that??
[20:23] <jc_> Krishnandu, permission?
[20:23] <akaustav> swarm: Yup, I can see it. Thanks.
[20:23] <jc_> you arent making sense..
[20:23] <Krishnandu> jc_, yup
[20:23] <VCoolio> Purpley: a little, different approach to dependencies and aptitude has a cli frontend
[20:23] <djb1> thanks VCoolio I'll try that
[20:24] <nicolas> blue_anna, when I edit the file in gedit it does show up normally, just not in nano (and the webpage is shown as in nano unfortunatly)  I tried editing the charset to UTF-8 on it but that didnt change anything
[20:24] <Krishnandu> jc_, didn't I need somtehing like registering it??
[20:24] <Purpley> VCoolio, CLI is a thing where it tries to do everything automatically with no user interaction right?
[20:24] <jc_> Krishnandu, register what?
[20:24] <Krishnandu> jc_, the channel??
[20:24] <jc_> oh
[20:24] <VCoolio> Purpley: no, just lingo for command line
[20:24] <jc_> yes, but youll hafta google freenode
[20:24] <jc_> freenode website will have info
[20:25] <jc_> i thought you meant windows shares. :)
[20:25] <edbian> VCoolio, cli = command line interface
[20:25] <Purpley> VCoolio, Oh
[20:25] <blue_anna> nicolas: (LANG=en_US:ISO8859-1 && nano filename) doesn't work?
[20:25] <Krishnandu> jc_, ok thanx 4 d help
[20:25] <djb1> Rubyripper is not in the Items list.. and i searched my computer for "containing rubyripper" and nothing came up, should i assume it wasn't installed correctly?
[20:25] <Krishnandu> jc_, I tried googling but didn't found anything good
[20:25] <blue_anna> nicolas: with parentheses
[20:25] <VCoolio> Purpley: for conky, this line seems to be the problem, find it and edit / delete from your config: /sys/bus/i2c/devices/i2c-0/temp2_input
[20:26] <mi6ail1234> hello
[20:26] <VCoolio> Purpley: also you can make sense of the rest of the error message I guess; read 'man conky' for possible stuff, it changed over the last year or two so you may have an outdated config
[20:26] <nicolas> blue_anna, no
[20:26] <blue_anna> nicolas: what was that link again? :)
[20:26] <nicolas> blue_anna, but as I mentioned, opening the file in gedit displays the characters properly.
[20:26] <mi6ail1234> I have a question
[20:26] <mi6ail1234> :)
[20:26] <blue_anna> nicolas: why do you have to edit this in nano?
[20:27] <VCoolio> Purpley: paste your conky config if you're unsure
[20:27] <nicolas> blue_anna, http://pastebin.com/6PU1ZDmM
[20:27] <djb1> VCoolio: I also do not see the program in the items list in Edit Menu
[20:27] <Purpley> VCoolio, Is there a certain way it should be launched? Im just trying "conky"
[20:27] <nicolas> blue_anna, I dont.  But this is a webpage and when you view the page, the characters arent displayed properly, just like in nano.
[20:27] <iuri> does anyone know a good converter from ole2 to csv except for catdoc
[20:27] <iuri> ?
[20:27] <VCoolio> Purpley: depends on where your config is, if it's ~/.conkyrc you can do 'conky', else 'conky -c /path/to/configfile'
[20:28] <Purpley> Yeah thats where it is
[20:28] <mi6ail1234> I have a problem with Heroes 3 for Linux,i can't update...and the game doesn't want to run
[20:28] <mi6ail1234> after install
[20:28] <VCoolio> Purpley: you copied a config from the web?
[20:28] <Purpley> http://pastebin.com/de74vXTq I found it online on the post your .conkyrc files
[20:28] <blue_anna> nicolas: ooh, that's your webapge then .. put a <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO8859-1" /> in there

[20:29] <mohamed> how can i turn it on
[20:30] <VCoolio> Purpley: line 213 is the problem: i2c tem
[20:30] <nicolas> blue_anna, it was this originally but now it works.  Not sure why, let me check and I'll get back to you
[20:30] <blue_anna> nicolas: I dont know what to tell you, that's a problem with the browser .. and if you're having that problem other people might too ... the browser *should* respect that tag
[20:30] <Purpley> VCoolio, What do I put there?
[20:30] <VCoolio> Purpley: that forum thread is awesome, but better use the last 200 pages or so
[20:31] <blue_anna> how do you unpack but not install a .deb file?
[20:31] <VCoolio> Purpley: what temp is it supposed to show? you could use lmsensors

[20:33] <blue_anna> llutz: it erros out :S
[20:33] <VCoolio> Purpley: just use the thread and what you have as example, it's easy to set up; you can just delete that from line 213 (the part starting with CPU: ), you'll lose those temp things, but you can use lmsensors for that

[20:33] <pwnage-> Depends on what you are suppose to write Gimhalos

[20:34] <darrend> hi - I have a problem with sound.  Volume buttons work for the first 3 levels of output, and have no effect at all for the next 14 presses of the button

[20:34] <darrend> what needs changing to make this work?
[20:34] <llutz> blue_anna: or just "ar p file.deb data.tar.gz | tar zx"
[20:34] <tripps> I've installed flash-plugin, etc., but it doesn't work in chrome. Do I need to download something specific to chrome?
[20:35] <Gimhalos> pwnage-, I want to learn a language that would be both useful for contributing to open-source work and work as a physicist in the future as I might become a computational physicist. C++ and python both look useful for both instances but I don't have enough experience in the open-source world to know

[20:40] <tripelb> Middleman, what's that program?
[20:41] <VCoolio> Purpley: probably, yes; you can get the output of any terminal command in conky using $execi XX command here (where XX is seconds to repeat the command)
[20:41] <sylr> do you know I could make my nvidia driver with the pae kernel ?
[20:41] <nytek_> how do i list network computers from terminal?

[20:45] <oCean_> Hopeless8009: virtualbox is. "sudo apt-get install virtualbox-ose" will install the software
[20:46] <VCoolio> wunjo: did you manually install a videocard driver? you'll have to repeat that on a kernel update
[20:46] <Hopeless8009> cool
[20:46] <Middleman> i wanna install the kernel headers

[20:59] <tomubuntu> StaRetji..... I guess you are booting from the usb flash disk and live cd session of ubuntu is started every time you boot.. even if you delete the shortcut from the dekstop... on the next reboot.. live cd opens itself as a fresh new session and the shortcut is back there againn.. did I make myself clear ?
[20:59] <jc_> |corpse|, so BIOS doesn't acknowledge what you know the RAM can provide?
[20:59]  * xnox_help is on tty1 now
[21:00] <|corpse|> jc_: correct, they are 512mb each and if i put one in it shows 256 and 512 when both are in
[21:00] <jc_> |corpse|, check for latest BIOS updates for your mobo
[21:00] <jc_> |corpse|, also possible the mobo is slowly going...
[21:01] <|corpse|> jc_: wouldnt supprise me

[21:09] <vineeth_> or you could download Ubuntu Tweak

[21:17] <Razion> Okay. Let's avoid shortcuts that lock me into an inescapable terminal that consumes my entire OS.
[21:17] <Razion> I meant a terminal that runs inside X, like it did in 9.10

[21:18] <Razion> If it matters.
[21:18] <axon> did you reseve my massage?

[21:23] <Adamantus10> Hi. What is the best way of raising an issue with Ubuntu such as a bug or aethetic change?
[21:23] <oCean_> !bug | Adamantus10
[21:23] <benkay86> Adamantus10: On Launchpad, but you can ask here to see if your issue is really a bug or not.

[21:23] <deostroll> hi isn't there way I can connect to remote shell to my ubuntu...from a windows machine...?
[21:24] <Talon_> ohir: I don't follow what your saying
[21:24] <benkay86> desotroll: Try putty http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/
[21:24] <oCean_> !msgbot | DrGrov
[21:24] <tomubuntu> deostroll... use putty on windows machine.. and install ssh on your ubuntu
[21:24] <deostroll> benkay86, wht port do those communications go through?
[21:25] <benkay86> deostroll: Port 22 by default, but you can change that in /etc/ssh/sshd_config
[21:25] <benkay86> deostroll: FYI, check out /etc/services for a list of commonly used ports.
[21:25] <tomubuntu> benkay86 you seem to know these issues well.. I have a question for you..
[21:26] <deostroll> I am connected to another pc via a router...so I am supposed to do some port-forwarding setup...tht is why i asked the port...
[21:26] <benkay86> OK...
[21:26] <subspider> please a need help fixing my brub
[21:26] <subspider> grub
[21:26] <benkay86> subspider: What exactly has gone wrong?
[21:27] <Adamantus10> I have the system testing window open here and it's running continuously without stopping, how do I crash it?
[21:27] <tomubuntu> benkay86 .... I login remotely to ubuntu from windows.. and start byobu on putty screen. when I also start byobu on ubuntu my putty connection is completely closed.. any idea why ?
[21:27] <PlasmaSheep> I have a logitech mx5500 keyboard. I have a dongle for this keyboard which is attached to my computer via usb. For the past few weeks using 10.04, all has worked well. However, in order to properly pair the keyboard with the computer now, I must remove the dongle from the port and manually pair them. The mouse works fine, however.
[21:27] <Adamantus10> Thank you ocean
[21:28] <subspider> benkay86, i can't load windows partitions it have the option
[21:28] <elb0w> should I worry about this? postconf: fatal: open /etc/postfix/main.cf: No such file or directory

[21:28] <Arsanerit> What do I install to get a mozilla firefox acroread plugin nowadays (64 bit)? I have enabled medibuntu but the package mozilla-acroread does not seem to exist ("Couldn't find package mozilla-acroread")
[21:29] <douglas> ocean : hows the oil?
[21:29] <benkay86> subspider: Would you mind posting the contents of /boot/grub/grub.cfg to pastebin?
[21:29] <benkay86> tomubuntu: Are you starting byobu from inside byobu? I imagine that's not a good idea.
[21:30] <benkay86> Arsanerit: I think acroread has moved to the Ubuntu partner repository.
[21:30] <lars_bauer> http://pastie.org/981788 # trouble on new ubuntu version with plone4
[21:30] <subspider> benkay86, http://pastebin.com/zmm2Jesn
[21:31] <benkay86> subspider: That looks reasonable. Have you been able to boot Windows from grub in the past?
[21:31] <Arsanerit> benkay86: I have acroread, just not acroread-plugin. Ubuntu partner? the first google hit is error 404 at ubuntu.com, what repository is this?
[21:32] <Cyclist2> Hello, there! since uprgranding to Lucid Linx I can no longer have my laptop's display switched off with the following script lines >> DISPLAY=:0.0 /usr/bin/xset dpms force off <<; actually, it works for a few seconds [under a minute or so] and then the display becomes only dimmed [no images are put back on it: but it is not switched off! another curious thing: I have a cron job that uses that very same script and runs it ev
[21:32] <Purpley> How do I kill conky?
[21:32] <Arsanerit> main? universe? restricted? multiverse? medibuntu? what else?
[21:32] <Purpley> And How do I set where a conky window will be displayed
[21:32] <Adamantus10> I have the system testing window open here and it's running continuously without stopping, how do I crash it?
[21:32] <VCoolio> Purpley: killall conky, or 'xkill' then click it
[21:32] <subspider> benkay86, yes i upagrade from ubuntu 9.10 to 10.4 and then my grub messsed i had to fix it with live cd now i realised weeks ago that i can't go to windows
[21:32] <BodyThief> howdy folks
[21:32] <midas__> can I create an access point in my notebook running lucid?
[21:33] <Arsanerit> deb http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu lucid partner <--- is enabled
[21:33] <wise_crypt> !grub2
[21:33] <Green_> still can't join #android
[21:33] <VCoolio> Purpley: settings are in the config, give me the link again; you can align top right left etc and set x and y offsets
[21:33] <benkay86> Arsanerit: My google foo tells me acroread-plugin has been deprecated by acroread + mozplugger. Have you already tried that?
[21:34] <MIRanda_swe> Hey! Does anyone know how to make usb-automounted devices available for all users?
[21:34] <Purpley> VCoolio, To what?
[21:34] <Arsanerit> benkay86: No, it didn't show up in my googling
[21:34] <benkay86> subspider: OK, so it sounds like the Windows boot stopped working after your upgrade. Can you verify that your Windows partition is /dev/sda1?
[21:34] <shadowdxs> ooo, Grub problems
[21:34] <subspider> benkay86, yes give me a minute
[21:34] <Arsanerit> benkay86: thanks for the pointer, I'll try
[21:34] <shadowdxs> i had to deal with that a few times
[21:35] <Monotoko> grub problems are always interesting XD
[21:35] <shadowdxs> LMAO
[21:35] <ShadowDXS> there we go
[21:35] <Monotoko> always an absolute pain to fix too :P
[21:35] <VCoolio> Purpley: never mind; use "alignment top_left" for example, and "gap_x XX" and "gap_y XX" where XX is pixels
[21:36] <VCoolio> Purpley: replace or add these settings above "TEXT" in the config file
[21:36] <benkay86> As long as we're on grub problems, has anyone else had issues with non-zero values of GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT not being honored? I'm about to report a bug on this...
[21:36] <skalman> Kinda broke my xorg.conf, got a netbook Asus EEE 1101HA without cd-drive so can only use usb. Can I get in somehow and just fix my xorg.conf?
[21:36] <MIRanda_swe> Hey! Does anyone know how to make usb-automounted devices available for all users?
[21:36] <ChogyDan> skalman: have you installed the graphics drivers?
[21:37] <Sensiva> Hello, When I was using Karmic, boot process continues with routine fsck is running in background (unless it is checking root or home), now this is not happening in Lucid, I have to wait till fsck finishes then boot continues. Any ideas?
[21:37] <skalman> ChogyDan: Yeah, I only get a blank screen when I boot it up, cant click anything (ctrl alt f1 etc), not even caps lock will activate.
[21:37] <Arsanerit> benkay86: it works, thanks. One problem with googling is the vast amount of /outdated/ information available on the internet...
[21:37] <ShadowDXS> hmm
[21:38] <do0ob> Why can grub boot from a hdd that the kernel can't access due to errors? hanging when loading modules .et
[21:38] <Purpley> Very well
[21:38] <do0ob> etc
[21:38] <subspider> benkay86, http://pastie.org/982390
[21:38] <ChogyDan> skalman: well, you should be able to delete xorg.conf I think.  (I just happened to help someone a little with a 1101ha this morning!)
[21:38] <do0ob> do0ob: grub might have its own kernel
[21:38] <do0ob> do0ob: thanks
[21:38] <terje> hi, is there a desktop app that will gimme a profile of all my systems hardware
[21:38] <ShadowDXS> what error are you getting? (IE what number is it showing?)@do0ob
[21:38] <Xpistos> Can I install 10.04 with a seperate ext4 boot partition?
[21:38] <terje> like, video card, CPU(s), mem, disk, etc?
[21:38] <terje> there use to be one..
[21:38] <Xpistos> When I test in a VM, I can't
[21:38] <terje> I can't find it
[21:39] <MIRanda_swe> Hey! Does anyone know how to make usb-automounted devices available for all users?
[21:39] <ShadowDXS> yes you can @Xpistos
[21:39] <Xpistos> ShadowDXS: Thanks
[21:39] <subspider> benkay86, i have a two windows is ther a problem with that??
[21:39] <skalman> ChogyDan: Yeah, but how? Since I only get the blank screen and cant use anything. I tried to boot up with the usb-flash-thingy but dosent seems like I can access my installation. :/

[21:40] <MIRanda_swe> Hey! Does anyone know how to make usb-automounted devices available for all users?
[21:40] <Alson> Hello / Witam , jest tu jakis polak ? :D
[21:40] <ShadowDXS> You can have as much windows as your HDD can handle, but Grub will just read them as they are on the HDD
[21:40] <Alson> Hi , i have a problem :(
[21:41] <ShadowDXS> What is your problem Alson?
[21:41] <ChogyDan> skalman: have you tried alt+sysrq+k?    also, you should be able to access your install through the places menu (when booting from the usb), just open up the correct drive
[21:41] <MIRanda_swe> Hey! Does anyone know how to make usb-automounted devices available for all users?
[21:41] <do0ob> ShadowDXS: 10.04 just hangs,  i don't know how to debug it, the versoin i had on an old hdd had this bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/256637
[21:41] <ShadowDXS> are you trying to install 10.04?
[21:41] <do0ob> ShadowDXS: yes
[21:41] <ShadowDXS> i had the same thing
[21:42] <Alson> I was install Ubuntu on my USB Disk and instal grub on my notbook disk , on secend disk i have a windows
[21:42] <do0ob> ShadowDXS: what laptop do you have?
[21:42] <Jonta> Anything to try on a GNU/Linux box without internet-connection that doesn't seem to discover external harddrive?
[21:42] <ShadowDXS> but there is good news
[21:42] <MIRanda_swe> Hey! Does anyone know how to make usb-automounted devices available for all users?
[21:42] <ShadowDXS> i have a MacBook Pro
[21:42] <benkay86> subspider: Yes, you have a Windows parition at /dev/sda. But I'm seeing Windows partitions at /dev/sda5 and /dev/sda6 as well. If the parition you want to boot from is /dev/sda5 but grub is trying to boot from /dev/sda1, that would account for your problem.
[21:42] <do0ob> ShadowDXS: you worked around it?
[21:42] <ShadowDXS> but this happed with a HP and a Sony
[21:42] <ShadowDXS> yes
[21:42] <do0ob> i have a old hp
[21:42] <ShadowDXS> its not that hard
[21:42] <Alson> when i disconnect USB Disk i have a error in grub
[21:42] <zosky> hi Yall. mySQL on lucid server wont start ??? (my blog is dead) help plz. i finally got it up with $sudo mysqld_safe --user=mysql& but &sudo start mysql = start: Rejected send message, 1 matched rules; type="method_call", sender=":1.9" (uid=105 pid=3651 comm="start) interface="com.ubuntu.Upstart0_6.Job" member="Start" error name="(unset)" requested_reply=0 destination="com.u
[21:42] <Alson> I have HP too, HP 550
[21:43] <ShadowDXS> you just need the Altr. Texted based install of Ubuntu 10.04
[21:43] <subspider> benkay86, i have to windows os
[21:43] <do0ob> ShadowDXS: downloading it now
[21:43] <Alson> Can you help me ?
[21:43] <ShadowDXS> burn that to a disk and your golden
[21:43] <MIRanda_swe> Hey! Does anyone know how to make usb-automounted devices available for all users?
[21:43] <subspider> benkay86, i have windows server and vista
[21:43] <ShadowDXS> what do you mean by automounted?
[21:43] <ShadowDXS> are they not mounting at all?
[21:44] <frxstrem> is there a way to - from the command line - see if something is mounted directory X, and use it in an 'if' statement in bash?
[21:44] <MIRanda_swe> @shadow: i mean when u plug one in, the system mounts it
[21:44] <benkay86> subspider: And three Windows partitions. It's possible one of them is empty, and if that one is /dev/sda1, it would explain why nothing happens when you boot that partition.
[21:44] <subspider> benkay86, one of then is to store importante data
[21:45] <benkay86> subspider: If you're sure Windows is present on /dev/sda1, you could try manually editing /boot/grub/grub.cfg to be more minimalistic. See changes at http://pastebin.com/GmKFwdst
[21:45] <ShadowDXS> but if you log on to another user it wont Mount?
[21:45] <skalman> ChogyDan: Bah, alt+sysrq+k helped, thanks alot. Really. Have a nice evening!
[21:45] <subspider> benkay86, ok i will try
[21:45] <ShadowDXS> Good helpin there ChogyDan
[21:45] <ChogyDan> skalman: yw

[21:47] <ShadowDXS> thanks ubottu...
[21:48] <Pantora> i dont think you have to thank ubottu, because it obviously is not human
[21:48] <subspider> benkay86, i will restart ok
[21:48] <benkay86> I'm not going anywhere.
[21:48] <MIRanda_swe> Shadow: when im logged in and plug in a usb disk, it mounts and im able to access it with the currently logged in user.
[21:49] <MIRanda_swe> however, other user cant access the disk
[21:49] <MIRanda_swe> if i ssh into the system for example, or switch users
[21:49] <MIRanda_swe> as long as the user who mounted it is logged in, its freezed
[21:49] <FloodBot2> MIRanda_swe: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[21:49] <Exxon> hi
[21:49] <benkay86> Exxon: Hello. Don't be shy, ask your question.
[21:49] <Purpley> VCoolio, Can I PM you?
[21:50] <Exxon> can anyone help me to configure xchat using pidgin..if any one using or having tried it before.
[21:50] <resno> Exxon: are xchat and pidgin similar?
[21:50] <ChogyDan> Exxon: do you mean IRC for pidgin?
[21:51] <Exxon> irc through pidgin.
[21:51] <Pantora> accounts - manage accounts - add - protocol:  IRC
[21:51] <Pantora> fill out the gaps
[21:51] <Pantora> that should do it
[21:52] <b0nn> hrm, I'm trying to repair an ubuntu nbr install, the taskbar has disappeared, any ideas?
[21:52] <Guest52310> Hey guys, anyone using a intel card that can show me a copy of their xorg.conf. my drivers are their but the comp isnt detecting them.
[21:53] <NCS_One> hi
[21:53] <frxstrem> is it possible to have a directory where everyone can mount and unmount stuff without using sudo? (like /media/somedir)
[21:54] <Exxon> Is it possible Xchat in pidgin? how :(
[21:54] <ipauldev> I can't seem to figure out why my mounted cifs shares are reporting data with ls -alhs and du -hs in 1MB blocks... so 100, 1K documents, are taking up 100 MB, for example. Anyone willing to help me troubleshoot. On the storage server, they show in the filesystem as 4.0K blocks.
[21:54] <benkay86> frxstrem: Just add the user option in /etc/fstab
[21:54] <b0nn> ipauldev: check the inodes
[21:54] <Pantora> Exxon what you mean is probably called irc, not xhcat
[21:55] <NCS_One> where can I find error/crashes log file ?
[21:55] <Pantora> Exxon in pidgin, goto:  accounts - manage accounts - add - protocol:  IRC
[21:55] <benkay86> Pantora: Oh, wow. His question makes infinitely more sense now!
[21:55] <frxstrem> benkay86: but wouldn't I have to actually mount something in fstab to do that? (I want a directory to mount ISO files in, you see, and they shouldn't be mounted on startup)
[21:55] <Razion> Okay, so I can hear audio when I hit "test" in my sound settings in 10.04, but not in any other program. Through a USB headset, by the way. Any ideas on how to fix?
[21:55] <Exxon> trying..
[21:55] <Pantora> Exxon fill out the gaps - that should do it
[21:56] <ipauldev> b0nn: I've googled all over for inodes, I don't know what I can do to "check the inodes" if you don't mind any suggestions.
[21:56] <MIRanda_swe> Hey! Anyone knows how to make mounted usb-devices accessible for all users?
[21:56] <benkay86> frxstrem: The noauto option would prevent whatever you're trying to mount from being mounted at startup. The user option would allow non-root users to perform the mount (i.e. without sudo).
[21:56] <subspider> benkay86, nope it's not working i will try to load vista
[21:56] <Sensiva> NCS_One usually they are /var/log , unless otherwise specified by the package or the user
[21:56] <Exxon> server : irc.ubuntu.com
[21:56] <frxstrem> benkay86: okay, thanks ;)
[21:57] <giacomo> hi, Ubuntu 10.04 can "see" my Delta 1010LT audio card but I can hear no sound
[21:57] <NCS_One> Sensiva: ok, thanks
[21:57] <trism> ipauldev: df -i;
[21:57] <Pantora> benkay86 never mind, i was just explaining the steps... and wanted to add some background knowledge
[21:57] <MIRanda_swe> Hey! Anyone knows how to make mounted usb-devices accessible for all users?
[21:57] <benkay86> subspider: Yes, try to boot from a different partition.
[21:58] <benkay86> MIRanda_swe: I'm not really sure, but it's probably something you can do by tweaking the mount permissions used by udev, hal, or dbus.
[21:58] <kerebrus> Anyone not using an nvidia or ati vid card can share their xorg.conf or know of a gui for intel drivers
[21:59] <Razion> Okay, so I can hear audio when I hit "test" in my sound settings in 10.04, but not in any other program. Through a USB headset, by the way. Any ideas on how to fix?
[21:59] <NCS_One> my ubuntu freezes in the middle of load or some times it goes till login but if I do the login it freezes. Any ideas?
[21:59] <benkay86> kerebrus: I'm using an intel card. My xorg.conf is nonexistent, since you shouldn't need one in Lucid.
[21:59] <MIRanda_swe> benkay86: u know the config files to look in?
[21:59] <kerebrus> benkay86 im using 10.04 which version is lucid?
[21:59] <benkay86> MIRanda_swe: Sorry, not offhand. Google is your friend.
[22:00] <giacomo> neither my audio works :(
[22:00] <benkay86> kerebrus: 10.04 = lucid
[22:00] <MIRanda_swe> benkay86: ty!
[22:00] <robin0800> kerebrus: look in the xorg log
[22:00] <Christos> anyone care to help me with  my theme for linux?
[22:00] <kerebrus> neither 9.06 or 10.04 or 10.04 LTS work. When I go to monitor its not supported and doesnt have any refresh rate so videos are choppy.
[22:01] <Christos> im a little stomped
[22:01] <kerebrus> Christos what are you trying to do?
[22:01] <benkay86> MIRanda_swe: FYI if you just want to set that up for a particular drive (and not every USB drive you plug in) you could just add an entry to /etc/fstab.
[22:01] <ipauldev> trism, b0nn, interesting, df -i reports 1503238528 inodes, but df -m reports 7339904 1M-blocks
[22:01] <antivirtel> hi, what can I do, if in xchat the topic line inst colored?
[22:02] <Razion> Okay, so I can hear audio when I hit "test" in my sound settings in 10.04, but not in any other program. Through a USB headset, by the way. Any ideas on how to fix?
[22:02] <kerebrus> robin0800 where is the xorg log located?
[22:02] <astrojp> Anyone happen to get the Logitech Webcam C120m to work on 10.04?
[22:03] <MIRanda_swe> benkay86: yeah, been doing that but sort of trying to make this work for every usb-drive i attach
[22:03] <frxstrem> isn't it possible to mount stuff in your own home directory?
[22:03] <giridhar> how to lookup my isp's ip and host name ?
[22:03] <ipauldev> strace -e statfs df -m reports {f_type=0xff534d42, f_bsize=4096, f_blocks=1879015417, f_bfree=1876902922, f_bavail=1876902922, f_files=1503238528, f_ffree=1503229183, f_fsid={0, 0}, f_namelen=4096, f_frsize=4096} - so that seems correct, still odd that it shows as storing files as 1MB instead of 4096b
[22:04] <jc_> frxstrem, sure is
[22:04] <robin0800> kerebrus: use the log file viewer in admin
[22:04] <MIRanda_swe> frxstrem: to who?
[22:04] <epinky> giridhar: go to some  what's my ip address site
[22:04] <benkay86> MIRanda_swe: Here's some documentation about setting the noatime mount option on removable devices with hal. You could probably tweak it to accomplish what you want. http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/HAL#Enable_the_noatime_mount_option_for_removable_devices
[22:04] <saif> i can not access using vpn from ubuntu to my office pc

[22:08] <ekristen> I am running ubuntu 9.10 and I installed lirc for my pvr-150, I use the zilog patch because 0.8.6 would build the lirc_pvr150 at all .. however I don't have the /dev/lirc1, which I need for the ir blaster and I can't seem to find any posts online about how to fix this ... any help would be appreciated.

[22:09] <bburhans> hrm, odd. My update-manager seems to be trying to use a proxy, even though the only proxy I've ever used was set in gnome and now disabled. Synaptic's preferences have it set to use a direct connection. Where would I find that setting for update-manager to correct this?
[22:09] <Docteh> ipauldev: fsck is for filesystems, with cifs you're not accessing a filesystem
[22:09] <ipauldev> Docteh: ty

[22:09] <saif> i tried to put the name it wants but what i have is 2 ip`s
[22:09] <saif> the public ip and my private ip of the office pc
[22:10] <Docteh> "remote viewer" is a remote desktop client?
[22:10] <saif> remote desktop viewer
[22:10] <Docteh> lol forgot to disable network manager on a diskless workstation
[22:11] <benkay86> subspider: You've got me. I can't find any open bugs against the grub chainloader, and its unlikely that *both* of your Windows partitions somehow got corrupted. All I can think of now is manually entering the boot sequence from the grub commandline, but that's unlikely to produce different results...
[22:11] <saif> my problem is i can not install the vpn certificate on ubuntu
[22:11] <kerebrus> robin0800 No driver listed. Thats why im trying to set one in xorg.conf
[22:11] <Docteh> bburhans: did you turn off the proxy after your last system boot?
[22:11] <g-me> I have a p4 3Ghz 1g ram pc, I presume people would expect it to run suitably for full screen youtube videos?
[22:12] <Docteh> g-me: depends if you're using a proper video driver or not
[22:12] <bburhans> Docteh: I almost never reboot, actually, but turn it on and off often without rebooting.
[22:12] <subspider> i already try the manual way benkay86
[22:13] <g-me> Docteh: thanks for the reply. With being new to ubuntu how can I tell? its 10.04 and has intel onboard graphics
[22:13] <robin0800> kerebrus: next step going to be google or intel i think
[22:13] <subspider> and the resulkt are the same benkay86
[22:13] <Docteh> g-me: drag a window around and see if it looks slow to redraw
[22:13] <kerebrus> robin0800 ive been all thru the forums and google isnt much help thats why im looking for a xorg to compare to
[22:13] <Docteh> a big window, not a tiny xeyes
[22:13] <bburhans> Docteh: update manager gives something like this: W: Failed to fetch http://deb.torproject.org/torproject.org/dists/jaunty/main/i18n/Translation-en_US.bz2  Could not connect to localhost:8080 (127.0.0.1). - connect (111 Connection refused)
[22:13] <Razion> Anyone know how to get K3b to burn Mp3s?
[22:14] <bburhans> Docteh: no idea where to set a proxy for that, though. I have no /etc/apt/apt.conf
[22:14] <g-me> Doctech: no, not quite smooth.
[22:14] <bburhans> Docteh: it seems to be using the system-wide gnome proxy even though I don't have it enabled. :/
[22:14] <g-me> FYI its a DC7100
[22:14] <Razion> It seems a little odd that a bloody CD burner program wouldn't come with the ability to burn MP3s...
[22:14] <robin0800> kerebrus: don't use intel so can't help further
[22:14] <Docteh> bburhans: proxys are usually configured via shell variables, open terminal, set|grep torp
[22:15] <benkay86> subspider: So, either the issue is with grub's ability to chainload or the boot sector on the target partition. One way to tell where the problem is would be to install grub to the bootsector of a linux partition and then chainload to it from grub on the mbr. If that's possible, then your Windows partitions are corrupt.
[22:15] <wtfness> hey all, anyone know of a way to change my computer's name? (I've tried adding the new name to /etc/HOSTNAME at no avail)
[22:15] <kerebrus> robin0800 I know neither do I, I normally use nvidia but putting it on my dads comp so he can try it out. everything works great but the vid
[22:15] <Docteh> wtfness: did you reboot after that?
[22:15] <benkay86> wtfness: I think you need to edit a few more file, including /etc/hosts.
[22:15] <subspider> ok benkay86 now you talk chinese
[22:16] <wtfness> Docteh: yup
[22:16] <Docteh> wtfness: also isn't it lower case typically, not sure on ubuntu
[22:16] <bburhans> Docteh: There are no env variables set that contain "torp" or "proxy" at all, case-insensitive.
[22:16] <robin0800> kerebrus: do you have the graphic vcard number?
[22:16] <Docteh> bburhans: kill update manager and run it from that prompt and see if you have the same problems
[22:16] <wtfness> (on an unrelated note, why the hell does "uname -p" say "unknown" hehe)
[22:16] <benkay86> subspider: LOL, but yeah, grub problems suck.
[22:16] <guntbert> !hostname | wtfness
[22:16] <wtfness> benkay86: lemme try the /etc/hosts file
[22:17] <subspider> benkay86, i will eat somthing i will be back later

[22:17] <Docteh> g-me: I'm not really knowlegable with displays, i guess you could check the /var/log/Xorg.0.log and see what driver it says its using
[22:18] <bburhans> Docteh: yes, same issue. Every other connection works fine; I use ssh with corkscrew disabled, firefox which inherits GNOME's proxy settings, etc.
[22:18] <bburhans> Docteh: and aptitude and apt-get themselves work fine
[22:18] <bburhans> Docteh: it seems to only be the update manager...
[22:18] <Docteh> so /etc/sources.list looks fine? odd
[22:18] <robin0800> kerebrus: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsVideoCardsPoulsbo/

[22:19] <blue_anna> anyone using em28xx driver?
[22:19] <blue_anna> on lucid
[22:19] <Docteh> bburhans: if you usually blindly update everything you could just apt-get update and then apt-get upgrade
[22:19] <robin0800> kerebrus: google is good
[22:19] <kerebrus> robin0800 amen to that
[22:20] <bburhans> Docteh: I am aware, and I live in a terminal, so I didn't even notice the warning that update-manager spit out into my notification area until today, weeks after I've last used the proxy.
[22:20] <wise_crypt> who ask about webcam ?
[22:21] <blue_anna> robin0800: google is not good :S I get 8 total results for "em28xx-dvb" Equinux -- and not one of them are about the two -- they had to be talked about in an accessable document somewhere when tehy were developed -- where did that go?
[22:22] <blue_anna> there should be pages of results

[22:24] <rm200910> deostroll: you could run your apt-get under screen.

[22:26] <blue_anna> wise_crypt: my question is actually about the em28xx-dvb driver, if you want to help me out with that :)

[22:36] <Guest901> what could be wrong?
[22:36] <VCoolio> greiser: the arrow is hardcoded in the panel, you'll have to edit the source code, there is a howto on ubuntuforums
[22:36] <Kangarooo> manawyddan: does that happen on particular software? googl-echrome with many tabs or YT video?

[22:41] <VCoolio> Purpley: but it's not a good idea to have conky on top of icons; even if you get it transparant you can't click the icons
[22:41] <MikeChelen> Guest15140, is there some other computer that could burn a cd?
[22:41] <Purpley> VCoolio, Ok well it didnt even move it stays at the same spot and I did the two things you said

[22:50] <benkay86> subspider: All I can think of is (a) try using a different bootloader or (b) try using your current bootloader on a partition you are certain is not corrupted.
[22:51] <benkay86> subspider: Or (c) assume they're corrupted, use Windows recovery disk or whatever, and then use the Ubuntu livecd to bring grub back when you are finished.

However, in order to properly pair the keyboard with the computer now, I must remove the dongle from the port and manually pair them. The mouse works fine, however.

[22:53] <guntbert> ceno: please read http://www.linuxatemyram.com/ about memory management in linux (the article is not long :-))
[22:53] <VCoolio> wise_crypt: it uses a lot more memory and is a lot less awesome then conky </war>
[22:53] <ceno> guntbert, thx, will do!
[22:53] <root_> eng pleas
[22:53] <wise_crypt> VCoolio: haha ..
[22:53] <Ellus> hello

[22:55] <mfpcokets> Hi guys, Im running off an 8gb ssd, but had it partitioned in half for a windows boot, as I moved to linux 3 weeks ago, and wanted to keep my windows installation just in case.  Now id like to delete the windows partition and merge the free space to the linux / drive.  What is the easiest way to do this
[22:55] <root_> what i have to do to get a display on backtrack 4 !!
[22:55] <Purpley> root_ startx i believe
[22:55] <VCoolio> Purpley: that's not killing, just a warning; I can't think of it now; get back to own_window no to be able to tweak some more with (v)offset and goto, and ask in the long thread on ubuntuforums for this one, it's too late to think bright
[22:55] <benkay86> subspider: In the likely event that a Windows installation/restoration overwrites your MBR, you can restore grub to the MBR using an Ubuntu LiveCD.
[22:55] <Purpley> root_, Also networking is /etc/init.d/networking start
[22:55] <root_> not that 1
[22:55] <x_> i use ubuntu 10.04 64 and flash videos doent respond well (dont pause, replay etc) in browser sometimes.. can someone help
[22:55] <root_> thx all work
[22:55] <root_> but mode
[22:55] <guntbert> root_: backtrack is NOT supported here -- ask in #backtrack-linux
[22:56] <root_> lol sorry
[22:56] <Purpley> VCoolio, But how do I make it appear again?
[22:56] <VCoolio> Purpley: kill it, go back to own_window no, then start again
[22:57] <ceno> guntbert, very well and let's suppose all is good. I still have 400mb of used ram even though I only have xchat open. How can I diagnose?
[22:57] <GeekSquid> mfpcokets: boot with live disk, run gparted, delete win partition, resize / to fill drive
[22:57] <wise_crypt> Purpley, : try screnlets << it easier
[22:57] <Purpley> VCoolio, Well its back but not where it should be :(
[22:57] <benkay86> subspider: See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1195275 part 16.
[22:57] <squiddy> i have to manually type my username on login screen. how do i set the login screen that displays my own username without typing it again and again?
[22:57] <MikeChelen> x_, are video hardware drivers enabled? also try toggling desktop effects
[22:57] <slow-motion> n8
[22:58] <VCoolio> Purpley: it could be that with the wrong alignment, because of the $voffset conky is displayed out of the screen range
[22:58] <Purpley> wise_crypt, But as VCoolio Its more intense

[22:59] <VCoolio> Purpley: that's the spirit, don't give up, but I'm off to bed now; have fun, post in the long thread on ubuntuforums if you need more help
[22:59] <Purpley> Oh wait
[22:59] <guntbert> ceno: the linux kernel will use most of your ram most of the time for getting a better performance
[22:59] <Purpley> The poster said he was having problems
[22:59] <Purpley> VCoolio, 1. voffsets have no effect on my conky. I am trying to make my conky horizontal across the bottom and I just need to move the individual "boxes" down but voffsets have no effect
[23:00] <mfpcokets> GeekSquid: Ok so I just dl gparted from terminal get-apt ... in live cd?
[23:00] <Purpley> thats what he said
[23:00] <ceno> guntbert, even I assume you're right, is there any way I can list apps runnins ordered by say virtual memory? I hate gnome's system monitor -_-
[23:01] <eipi-1> do you have any suggestion on how i can install a self configured ubuntu installation via network without any prompt on the client, so called unattended?
[23:01] <GeekSquid> mfpcokets: you will need to reboot into the live disk, partitions have to be unmounted to resize
[23:01] <guntbert> ceno: of course: install htop, run it, press F6 to get the sort options

[23:03] <norrec> how do you add drivers to the install cd?
[23:04] <tehk> what does ubuntu use to share the Public folder in the users home directory?
[23:04] <ceno> guntbert, cool man, i never tried htop. I'm getting a list with a lot of repeated apps with the same name but different PIDs, is this normal?
[23:04] <squiddy> bastid_raZor: thanks, i'll try that one. joaopinto, thanks

[23:05] <jc_> Angelo, do you really need to su?  there is a reason it declined.
[23:05] <jc_> there is a way around it tho...thats why i ask
[23:05] <wise_crypt> Purpley, : you can choose it also in the daemon :)
[23:05] <AgentLime> anyone know a way to install ubiquity (for building a live cd) without X?
[23:05] <pictureaday> If I had a fakeRaid and my mobo dies, how would I recover the data on the disks? (raid 1)

[23:06] <phillyj> i need to use nohup; should I do it like this "nohup {command}" ? I'm saving the output from the program into a log file so is there any effect to that?
[23:06] <jc_> Angelo, sudo su :)
[23:06] <woody_> stupid
[23:06] <Angelo> oh ah..
[23:06] <Angelo> why does that work and su not?

[23:07] <ptigga> I'm looking for some help with getting Ubuntu Network Remix 10.04 install on an ACER Aspire one. I've made a usb stick using usb-creator but I can't get the apsire to boot from it. Any ideas?
[23:07] <Angelo> thx.
[23:07] <guntbert> !xampp | Angelo
[23:07] <freebse> antivirtel: yes it is ok, I used tvtime, but kaffeine is easier to set up, what DVBT or really analog
[23:08] <ceno> guntbert, just pressing h gives me a help screen. there I saw the hide threads option under F5, how do I use this? pressing F5 gives me a tree view, h then gives me the help screen again
[23:08] <xangua> ptigga: first you need to set the bios to boot from external disk/usb , have you tried with unetbootin¿
[23:08] <guntbert> ceno: H not h
[23:08] <Angelo> can i install LAMP from the software center?
[23:08] <guntbert> Angelo: you use tasksel for that: sudo tasksel gives you a menu to choose from
[23:09] <antivirtel> freebse and what if my pinnacle 110i isnt detected yet, how can I do it?
[23:09] <ceno> guntbert, alright, sorry for the noobness, I'm all set, thanx a bunch man!
[23:09] <Angelo> ah, thanks! :)
[23:09] <freebse> antivirtel: this is another problem ;)
[23:10] <guntbert> ceno: no problem - glad it works for you :-)
[23:10] <antivirtel> freebse yeah, but I cant scan for channels :D
[23:10] <ptigga> Xangua: I can select the usb stick from the F12 boot menu, but after selecting the USB stick as the boot device it just hangs with a blinking cursor in the top left of the screen and doesn't go any further. Are you suggesting using unetbootin to write the iso to the usb stick instead of usb-creator?
[23:11] <freebse> antivirtel: http://www.bioticaindia.com/pinnacle-pctv-110i-capture-device.html
[23:12] <forkup> unetbootin works well
[23:12] <freebse> antivirtel: try this:  dmesg | grep saa7133
[23:12] <freebse> antivirtel: driver should work right away
[23:12] <xangua> ptigga: i haven't tried the usb creator but unetbootin worked for me
[23:13] <AgentLime> anyone know anything about using ubiquity?
[23:13] <blue_anna> when I type shift+space I don't get a space, but it looks like a space. "lsmod | grep v4" won't run on my machine, for example
[23:13] <bloopbloop> hi, ubuntu noob here. Looking for little help with (super simple) kernel module on ubuntu. Is this the right place?
[23:13] <Random832> blue_anna: your shift-space is probably a nbsp
[23:13] <guntbert> !ask | bloopbloop
[23:13] <blue_anna> Random832: not according to the xkb/symbols file it isn't
[23:14] <ptigga> forkup: Thanks, I'll try it
[23:14] <Random832> no, it's a 'thin space'
[23:14] <Angelo> ok so i installed LAMP, now how do i start it? or did it automatically start?
[23:14] <blue_anna> Random832: key <SPCE>  { [  space,         space,    thinspace,      emspace ] };
[23:14] <bloopbloop> Can anyone here help me compile a kernel module?
[23:15] <Random832> and you're sure you're using shift and not altgr?
[23:15] <Random832> what is your keyboard layout?
[23:15] <AgentLime> does anyone know anything about installing ubiquity without X?
[23:15] <blue_anna> it's es
[23:15] <Random832> do you have | on a key, or do you have to press alt to get it?
[23:15] <Angelo> ah, localhost = it works!
[23:15] <Random832> altgr-space is more reasonable than shit-space
[23:15] <Random832> crap, i mean shift-space

[23:16] <blue_anna> Random832: I modified the es symbols file to have that space line in there so I wouldn't have that problem, it still keeps it.
[23:16] <Random832> i swear that wasn't on purpose
[23:16] <blue_anna> Random832: yeah that's what I thought :)
[23:16] <Random832> i don't know - i on't know much about xkb
[23:16] <Angelo> where's LAMP's htdocs ?
[23:16] <blue_anna> Random832: I don't think it is xkb, but it isn't in my compose files or anything so I'm not sure ..
[23:17] <GeekSquid> Angelo: /var/www
[23:17] <freebse> antivirtel: so then you have the driver ok, start kaffeine or install tvtime and you did it
[23:17] <Random832> well that symbol stuff is xkb stuff
[23:17] <Random832> i don't know enough to know how to help you, sry
[23:17] <Angelo> thanks.
[23:17] <blue_anna> Random832: nps
[23:17] <blue_anna> can anyone help me? when I type shift+space I don't get a space, but it looks like a space. "lsmod | grep v4" won't run on my machine, for example
[23:18] <antivirtel> freebse in search (at kaffeine) doesnt show any source, what now? :D
[23:18] <guntbert> Angelo: on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP you will find a lot of useful info
[23:18] <freebse> antivirtel: what?
[23:18] <AgentLime> why exactly are you needing to use shift+space?
[23:19] <freebse> antivirtel: apt-get install kaffeine
[23:19] <antivirtel> I click to Channel Scan, and there is a select titled: source, and no options
[23:19] <blue_anna> AgentLime: | requires shift, a lot of times when I'm typing the shift sticks long enough to trap the space bar after the | character
[23:19] <antivirtel> freebse kaffeine is setted up
[23:19] <freebse> antivirtel: modprobe saa1733
[23:20] <freebse> antivirtel: start kaffein with sudo (it is an old debian problem if)
[23:20] <pictureaday> if anyone who is familiar with dmraid please read and respond to my thread at : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1495636
[23:20] <AgentLime> is it for a script or just cli? its a pain, but you may need to delete the space, then add an actual space
[23:22] <Angelo> how should i chmod /var/www if i want to edit files in there without root access?
[23:22] <antivirtel> freebse nothing changed :S
[23:22] <freebse> antivirtel: what does modprobe do
[23:23] <antivirtel> roland@roland-desktop:~$ modprobe saa1733
[23:23] <antivirtel> FATAL: Module saa1733 not found.
[23:23] <antivirtel> :D
[23:23] <freebse> antivirtel: ok, I dunno I did this on Debian
[23:23] <edwin-sv> hi everyone!!!
[23:23] <freebse> antivirtel: and it said ok
[23:23] <arand> freebse: Manipulat modules (add remove, etc.)
[23:24] <antivirtel> freebse have I setup an other module?
[23:24] <Kangarooo> how thrue ssh execute sh script to run in monitor of that computer?
[23:24] <freebse> arand: This card requires saa7134 driver (a video4linux module) in the Linux kernel. This driver is by default included in most distro including Ubuntu. Just run old good dmesg command to see if a driver loaded or not.
[23:24] <Angelo> nevermind my last question guys
[23:25] <arand> freebse -> antivirtel

[23:25] <edwin-sv> I have troubles trying to mount a hard disk while I am using a Ubuntu Live-CD, and I'm doing that cause when I boot my Ubuntu server, it gave me a GRUB error 17
[23:26] <Kangarooo> how thrue ssh execute sh script to run in monitor of that computer? in xorg or somehow?
[23:27] <Kangarooo> edwin-sv: if using ubuntu live cd it mounting should work thrue nautilus
[23:27] <antivirtel> freebse tx, I try with tvtime :) but I think tvtime is an old software:S
[23:28] <GeekSquid> Kangarooo: ssh user@localhost -p
[23:28] <xangua> ptigga: this channel is only for ubuntu support ;)
[23:28] <freebse> antivirtel: I don't know but what you have there is also not the newest TV card ;) btw analog TV ;)
[23:28] <douglas> hey how do i get desktop effects like a 3d cube?
[23:29] <freebse> antivirtel: I used kaffein for DVBT and it worked allright with digital TV
[23:29] <xangua> douglas: install ccsm (compiz setting manager) to cpnfigure compiz plugins
[23:29] <Kangarooo> GeekSquid: im already in ssh and i want on that computer run sh script witch runs in window mode. so i want that sh when executed to run in that computers xorg window
[23:29] <freebse> douglas: compiz --replace

[23:30] <freebse> antivirtel: I had one back in 2003 or so, but I allways used tvtime back then and on Windows moretv ;)
[23:30] <douglas> so compiz is good?
[23:30] <GeekSquid> Kangarooo: ssh -X .. does X forwarding
[23:30] <freebse> damn old stuff
[23:30] <antivirtel> douglas stops metacity, and starts compiz
[23:30] <freebse> where do you live to have analog TV ?
[23:30] <antivirtel> freebse :D
[23:30] <Kangarooo> douglas: if u have ubuntu u have compiz installed right? then in settgins there somewhere u can activate and change thouse effects
[23:31] <freebse> antivirtel: I won't get any channel with this
[23:31] <antivirtel> in hungary :D
[23:31] <norrec> I'm trying to install onto a drive that is attached to a promise tx4 sata controller, however I can't see the drive, the card says its supported by linux and I found that ubuntu has an open source driver for it, but it seems that its not on the install cd, how do you add drivers to the install cd so I can use the drives attached to the add-on card
[23:31] <antivirtel> I have cabel :D

[23:32] <NimbleRabit> I just did a fresh install of Lucid, and I'm trying to install some packages that only have Karmic versions and they are telling me I'm missing a dependency of libx264-67.  Anybody know if I can get this lib installed on Lucid?  It's not in synaptic.
[23:32] <freebse> antivirtel: ah ok, they switched of analog cable over here, so good luck with this device, maybe it is not supported in newer Ubuntu Distros, then  much luck with the backport
[23:32] <Kangarooo> edwin-sv: try in terminal sudo nautilus and then in that nautilus witch will open go in that partition
[23:32] <__-osh-__> Anyone good with RAID? I'm about to do some stupid things to one of my machines. RAID1, so I thought I'd fail the primary mirror (sda1) and work on the other. If I succeed I could just bring the primary back online again to sync them and everything will be well, right?
[23:32] <douglas> Kangarooo: were are those settings?
[23:32] <soreau> douglas: Install compizconfig-settings-manager and compiz-fusion-plugin-mains and ccsm should appear in sys>prefs menu
[23:32] <__-osh-__> But what if I screw up? How can I make sure that the machine boots on the primary and then use that to overwrite the bad (secondary) drive?
[23:32] <antivirtel> :D:D:D:D nice forecast
[23:32] <freebse> kalm: no gtk-pod works allright

[23:33] <freebse> antivirtel: It could be because modprobe has not worked, and maybe there is no kernel module then you need to compile or backswitch, anyways try tvtime if it does not pick up a card
[23:33] <kalm> freebse: i tried gtk-pod but i have a couple ipods and the first one i put on has taking over and the second will not recognize the nano 8g
[23:33] <Kangarooo> douglas: if in terminal u can run compiz --replace then its installed and somewhere thouse settings cna be found
[23:34] <antivirtel> freebse ok, I try, I'm now config it

[23:35] <freebse> in a text file
[23:35] <freebse> but can be wrong I haven't seen this piece of software for years
[23:35] <fbdystang> sgubu: if by expert you mean that I have had a bunch of freezes :)
[23:36] <edwin-sv> Kangarooo: the problem is the partition i want to mount has error in the disk, I passed the fsck command to check and repair errors but when i reboot the server appeared the GRUB Error 17 :(

[23:37] <Artiom_Fiodorov> rtl8187 keeps on loading on boot
[23:37] <fbdystang> Kangarooo: sound card is built in and don't have another. add in some select more controls like main?
[23:37] <edwin-sv> Kangarooo: so I was looking for solution to Error 17 and one of them is mounting the partition (/dev/sda1) and reinstallinh GRUB
[23:37] <freebse> antivirtel: some idiot round here told me worthless to try, they removed the kernel module ages ago, but nevermind he's an idiot ;)
[23:37] <DrDamnit> On Ubuntu 9.10 server x64, I have setup a static ip address in /etc/networking/interfaces, yet periodically, it still gets an ip from the DHCP server on the network. What's can I do to prevent this?
[23:38] <douglas> how do u use the cube
[23:38] <douglas> ?
[23:38] <douglas> desktop cube?
[23:38] <bazhang> douglas, install ccsm and activate
[23:38] <Artiom_Fiodorov> how to stop rtl8187 from loading on boot? /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist doesnt work
[23:38] <douglas> i didi
[23:38] <Kangarooo> edwin-sv: mmm so how did grub got error? u changed grub?
[23:39] <douglas> but how does it work?
[23:39] <bazhang> douglas, tried in #compiz ?
[23:39] <SovereignEntity> i think it ctrl-shift and the arrows
[23:39] <DrDamnit> douglas: install simple compiz settings manager, then set it up, enable cube, and restart the compiz service. Then use ctrl+alt + left / right arrow to rotate.
[23:39] <harovali> is there anything that can be done to print even if the driver thinks there is a lack of ink ?
[23:39] <soreau> DrDamnit: Compiz isnt a service..
[23:39] <Kangarooo> fbdystang: click sound controls, see theres theres all options i mentioned. try changing thouse
[23:39] <DrDamnit> sorry.... you're right. Reload the window manager.
[23:39] <antivirtel> freebse you think, that it configurable about exporting a list of frequencis from windows?
[23:40] <Kangarooo> fbdystang: theres option to change cards and to select options. do both
[23:40] <antivirtel> douglas google: compiz cube
[23:40] <antivirtel> everything is written
[23:40] <DrDamnit> On Ubuntu 9.10 server x64, I have setup a static ip address in /etc/networking/interfaces, yet periodically, it still gets an ip from the DHCP server on the network. What's can I do to prevent this?
[23:40] <Kangarooo> douglas: in thouse compiz settings will be in each efect setings writen how to use each one
[23:40] <Guest74894> how i can se me how me cpu work
[23:40] <__-osh-__> Artiom_Fiodorov: It's not in /etc/modprobe.d/aliases I assume?
[23:41] <soreau> douglas: #compz is the official compiz support channel where you can get the most reliable info ;)
[23:41] <Guest74894> i want to se how me cpu work
[23:41] <__-osh-__> Guest74894: top in terminal
[23:41] <kaziem> DrDamnit, is it possible that you're using network-manager to manage your network instead of /etc/network/interfaces?
[23:41] <SovereignEntity> will someone take a look at my fstab please
[23:41] <DrDamnit> kaziem, very possible. How do I check?
[23:41] <Procule> someone knows if the ov51x driver works with flash at the moment ?
[23:41] <Kangarooo> Guest74894: open system system monitor
[23:41] <kaziem> apt-get remove network-manager
[23:42] <__-osh-__> Guest74894: I mean, open a terminal. type "top" without quotes. Or use the other suggestion.
[23:42] <kaziem> and manage network manually with /etc/network/interfaces
[23:42] <Guest74894> help pleas how i can se how me montitor working !!!!!!!!!
[23:42] <Guest74894> no cpu working
[23:42] <Guest74894> >&
[23:42] <kaziem> DrDamnit, of course this will have disadvantages when you want WPA wireless connections.. it can be done but it's a bit more difficult
[23:42] <Guest74894> i have that
[23:43] <DrDamnit> kaziem, aptitude search network-manager shows it is not installed. There will be no wireless connections. It is a wired server (ubuntu 9.10 server x64).
[23:43] <kaziem> DrDamnit, also if you want another GUI solution for managing your network use wicd
[23:43] <fbdystang> Kangarooo: I am not seeing sound controls. whereabouts might he be found?
[23:43] <Guest74894> go to servise and preas NETWORK
[23:43] <kaziem> apt-get install wicd
[23:43] <sjm> kaziem: doesn't network-manager not recognize anything defined in the interfaces file?
[23:43] <Kangarooo> fbdystang: in top panel right side sound icon
[23:43] <Guest74894> can some one pleas help me
[23:43] <kaziem> sjm, there can be incompatibilities, when that happens network-manager internal configuration will prevai
[23:44] <kaziem> prevail*
[23:44] <Kangarooo> Guest74894: i told system sytem monitor will show cpu
[23:44] <sjm> kaziem: only because I've sometimes used /etc/network/interfaces for wired nics and network-manager for wireless.
[23:44] <Chriisti> is special channel for other language?
[23:44] <Guest74894> THX SO MUTCH BABY
[23:44] <bazhang> Chriisti, which language
[23:44] <xangua> Chriisti: what language¿
[23:44] <DrDamnit> kaziem, don't need (or want) a GUI manager. Just want it to read the interfaces file, only. Need to figure out why it won't stay on the static IP.
[23:44] <Chriisti> romanian

[23:56] <fbdystang> Kangarooo: I think i found it. which is better, analog output or digital output?
[23:56] <antivirtel> digital :D
[23:56] <freebse> antivirtel: is this digital then excuse me
[23:57] <adamror> Any suggestions my wireless card is ->  Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR5001 Wireless  Network Adapter (rev 01) (:
[23:57] <Kangarooo> analog would be for some other hardware like dj hardware. digital is for computer
[23:57] <freebse> antivirtel: This is for analog card PCTV Stereo.
[23:57] <__-osh-__> Raid expert?
[23:57] <fbdystang> antivertel: is this true? or is analog better when dealing with sound?

[23:58] <__-osh-__> Anyone good with RAID? I'm about to do some stupid things to one of my machines. RAID1, so I thought I'd fail the primary mirror (sda1) and work on the other. If I succeed I could just bring the primary back online again to sync them and everything will be well, right? But what if I screw up? How can I make sure that the machine boots on the primary and then use that to overwrite the bad (secondary) drive? I assume that I could
[23:58] <__-osh-__> boot from a rescue disc, enable the primary, fail the secondary and then boot the machine. Is that the proper procedure?
[23:59] <DjDark> anyone ever find a fix for the poor guality in video streaming?
[23:59] <adamror> is ndiswrapper preinstalled into ubuntu... or would I have to go about downloading it?
[23:59] <DjDark> quality*
[23:59] <eln1no> when you install prepare your wireless driver for win.. cd or whatever and when you open ndis system-administration-wireless drivers  point to your wireless driver .INF file
[23:59] <youngblood> eln1no, it already has usa as the selection. When I try to enter the keys that are not working I still don't see them print as i type. any other solutions?
[23:59] <eln1no> no it is not installed default
[23:59] <__-osh-__> adamror: ndiswrapper? Is that still needed? I heard about that some 5 years ago. Not recently.
