[00:00] <sebsebseb> Oer: plecosotmus  alpha 1 is very similar to Lucid, and it will be buggy here and there.
[00:00] <jrib> igoryonya_: not offhand, no
[00:00] <hztv> scunizi, i want to resize the partition. can you tell me how to manage to do that? i'm on gparted but the disk is monted
[00:00] <plecosotmus> Thanks Oer... or I could install a non Ubuntu-tested kernel... that's kinda risky, right?
[00:00] <acicula> not that risky, you can always boot the stock ubuntu kernel
[00:00] <Oer> sebsebseb, true, alfa is not a production version, i'll wait for the final release
[00:01] <thune3> igoryonya_: you could try using dd or head to copy off the uncorrupted portion to a new file, rename it to the old file and continue your download
[00:01] <jrib> igoryonya_: you could probably truncate the file yourself
[00:01] <iguanna> hi all
[00:01] <acicula> just gotta remember its not maintained by ubuntu so you have to keep track of updating it yourself
[00:01] <uLinux> How  I can make internet connection work without using Network Manager?
[00:01] <hztv> i will return in the morning
[00:01] <hztv> fuck ubuntu!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[00:01] <jrib> !language | hztv
[00:02] <sebsebseb> Oer: why do you watn newer kernel?
[00:02] <acicula> uLinux, by setting the config in /etc/network/interfaces and /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
[00:02] <Speiros> hztv: Wake up mate.
[00:02] <Oer> sebsebseb for trim support on ssd
[00:02] <igoryonya_> jrib: oh, ye, sounds like a good idea, do you know a command that allows to truncate, or I have to use a hex editor?
[00:02] <Speiros> My update manager isn't working properly, or won't update certain things.  Can someone help me please?
[00:02] <thune3> igoryonya_: yes jrib is right, "truncate" is the better command
[00:03] <joeri_> Hi. Is there any way to list directories by the number of files their subdirectories include?
[00:03] <jrib> joeri_: in nautilus? or in a terminal?
[00:03] <sebsebseb> Oer: ok
[00:03] <igoryonya_> thune3: does wget know that the missing part of the file is in the middle, after doing dd?
[00:03] <uLinux> why is it so hard to make a simple thing like this
[00:03] <joeri_> terminal, preferably.
[00:04] <sebsebseb> Oer: whatever that is, something to do with netbook I guess
[00:04] <thune3> igoryonya_: wget will just append to the current file starting at the end.
[00:05] <slow-motion> n8
[00:05] <Speiros> It is a new install, and still can't update for some reason the CUPS files, which it recommends.
[00:05] <uLinux> ubuntu is indeed frustrating sometimes
[00:05] <plecosotmus> the newer versions of hdparm have an included script called wiper.sh that's suppose issue TRIM commands and does not require kernel support
[00:05] <igoryonya_> thune3: yes, thats' what I thought, but I thought, since, it's a such complicated downloader with so many optoions, I thought it would have an option to download in the middle. When I start reading all the options in wget, my head starts spinning.
[00:06] <joeri_> jrib: to be more specific, i'd like to list the directories by the number of files their subdirectories and the subdirectories of the subdirectories have
[00:06] <AndrewX192> Hey, I have a Intel Pro Wilress 4965 card, and network-manager does not want to play with the kill switch, and says my wireless is disabled when it isnt, the wireless light is on, and iwlist scan works.
[00:06] <jrib> joeri_: #bash can probably help you with that
[00:06] <iguanna> I know that my question is not about ubuntu's world, although it is very wide, anyway my question is about redirecting my domain to another domain
[00:07] <jrib> iguanna: in apache?
[00:07] <joeri_> jrib: ok, thank you
[00:07] <igoryonya_> thune3: jrib, is there a command to truncate, or I can only do it in hex editor?
[00:07] <thune3> igoryonya_: curl allows ranges. but this is getting fancy. the simple solutuion is to use "truncate" command to cut off the last known good area to the end
[00:07] <AndChat-> Speiros, did you do a sudo apt-get update?
[00:07] <jrib> igoryonya_: "truncate" is such a command
[00:08] <iguanna> no, by changing the dns of my domain1 for the dns of my domain2, because I want to redirect domain1 to domain2.
[00:08] <jrib> iguanna: yeah, not really an ubuntu question...
[00:08] <edlik> Please help, I upgraded to 10.04 and my computer wont tolerate it. Can I revert to 9.10? I did not put home on its own partition or else I would just reinstall. I am now using 9.10 on a live usb.
[00:08] <igoryonya_> jrib: i see, I probably have to install it, since, I tried and it said no such file.
[00:09] <jrib> iguanna: there's a #dns, try there maybe
[00:09] <iguanna> jrib, I know, but I need help
[00:09] <_94_> hey, has anyone updated from karmic to lucid while using Wubi?
[00:09] <iguanna> ok, thanks
[00:09] <jrib> igoryonya_: what did you execute?
[00:09] <igoryonya_> jrib: truncate
[00:09] <jrib> igoryonya_: read its documentation
[00:09] <danc3> edlik: you computer "won't tolerate it"?  WTF does that mean?
[00:10] <edwin___> Is there anyone able to hel me with a postscript printing problem?
[00:10] <jrib> edwin___: best to just ask the channel your actual question (on a single line)
[00:10] <edwin___> ok
[00:10] <KF07> on ubuntu 10.04, why can't I click the time bar thing on youtube videos (can't fast-forward or rewind)
[00:10] <igoryonya_> jrib: it's not installed by default? bash: truncate: command not found
[00:10] <edwin___> I need to print to file from openoffice. The default printer is not there
[00:10] <tristan> just made a partition to create a duel boot.. what do i need to do to make my partition a bootable drive..
[00:10] <iWolf> KF07; I believe there is two flash packages
[00:10] <jrib> igoryonya_: it's in coreutils here so you should definitely have it...
[00:10] <iWolf> !flash
[00:10] <iWolf> There ya go
[00:11] <thune3> igoryonya_: truncate is part of coreutils, it should be installed
[00:11] <vicsar>  
[00:11] <jrib> edwin___: isn't there an "export to pdf" option?  Or is that not what you want?
[00:11] <igoryonya_> jrib: the man opened for it, ok, I will read it thanx
[00:11] <KF07> ok thanks
[00:11] <edwin___> no, i need to pproduce a postcript file
[00:12] <edlik> dance3: x wont start, I googled and tried all of the fixes I could find to no avail. I even tried 10.04 on a live cd and get the same results, I am very frustrated with this and just want my 9.10 back
[00:12] <Wolvenhaven> anyone use django with apache?  i forgot my password and can't get into #django to ask my question
[00:12] <Vooloo> why does 64-bit download say: Not recommended for daily desktop usage
[00:12] <sudotux> !recovery
[00:12] <sudotux> !grub
[00:12] <jrib> Wolvenhaven: what password?  Try #freenode if it's your freenodue account password
[00:12] <AndChat-> Voodoo, lol, I use on my desktop.
[00:13] <edwin___> i just need to find the way to "ptint to file" using the default printer
[00:13] <edwin___> but i have not a default printer
[00:13] <Daekdroom> Vooloo, it is a little more difficult to install some programs.
[00:13] <kryptic> hey erybody
[00:13] <tristan> just made a partition to create a duel boot system.. anyone know what do i need to do to make my partition a bootable drive..
[00:13] <kryptic> newbie here
[00:13] <sudotux> thune3, there is no recovery option  on my lucid dvd WTF
[00:13] <Daekdroom> Vooloo, no reason to use it unless you really need a 64bit version of an application or support for 3GB+ RAM
[00:14] <kryptic> i feel so prt of the community alredi
[00:14] <Wolvenhaven> jrib there aren't any staff online right now i checked
[00:14] <sudotux> !grub2
[00:14] <acerimmer> !beginners
[00:14] <jrib> Wolvenhaven: be patient then.  Or just create a new temporary account
[00:14] <Vooloo> Daekdroom: so if you have 64-bit hardware you should use 32-bit ...?
[00:14] <Wolvenhaven> yea, i was just wondering if any of the django people were in here too
[00:14] <Daekdroom> Vooloo, it's compatible, so it doesn't matter
[00:15] <jrib> edwin___: you don't have "generic printer"?
[00:15] <makario> Does anyone know the character for the terminal blinking cursor?
[00:15] <sudotux> how to recover the installtion when i have no kernals and there is no option on my dvd bootmenu for recovery
[00:15] <pris> oi
[00:15] <jrib> sudotux: why do you have no kernels?
[00:15] <Vooloo> and why does the ISO say amd64? I have intel
[00:15] <pris> oi
[00:15] <jrib> Vooloo: that's just the name for 64bit
[00:15] <Craig_Dem> I think he means no grub options rather than kernels.
[00:15] <edwin___> I dont think so. If I go to system, admin, printing i have nothing there
[00:15] <kryptic> i hve dis tutorial
[00:16]  * jrib is not so sure
[00:16] <Daekdroom> Vooloo, AMD was the first to have 64-32bits compatible processors, so the arch was tagged like that, but Intel is totally compatible.
[00:16] <tristan> anyone
[00:16] <sudotux> jrib, followed some morons advice to remove old kernals and warned of the warnings i got and well here we are
[00:16] <tristan> just made a partition to create a duel boot system.. anyone know what do i need to do to make my partition a bootable drive..
[00:16] <Vooloo> alright
[00:16] <kryptic> n its talkn aba device manager under system admin. bt i cant find it anywher. any help?
[00:16] <thune3> sudotux: see paragraph 2 https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/installation-guide/i386/rescue.html
[00:16] <edwin___> if i try to add new, noone is offered
[00:16] <sudotux> thune3, thank you
[00:17] <acerimmer> tristan: usb creator asks for an ISO  not a parition
[00:17] <jrib> sudotux: you should be able to chroot to your installation and install them back, let me know if that works
[00:17] <igoryonya_> Vooloo, that's because AMD developed 64 bit instructions before Intel, that were accepted by Microsoft and Linux officially. It was the first time where Intel had to catch up after AMD, instead of the other way.
[00:17] <sudotux> jrib, from the live dvd?
[00:17] <jrib> sudotux: yeah
[00:18] <sudotux> ok  what would be the command ?
[00:18] <sudotux> i have no internet as it was wifi and the drivers are installed on the drive
[00:18] <jrib> sudotux: mount the partition for your install, chroot inside it, use apt-get to install a kernel?
[00:18] <KF07> in terminal i ran "sudo add-apt-repository ppa:sevenmachines/flash" and i got "gpg: requesting key 61E46227 from hkp server keyserver.ubuntu.com
[00:18] <KF07> gpg: keyserver timed out
[00:18] <KF07> gpg: keyserver receive failed: keyserver error"
[00:19] <Salvad1> If I specify an existing home partition in the installation of Ubuntu and set the same username of some user of that home partition; Will It load the configurations that are stored there?
[00:19] <sudotux> jrib, the kernal should be there just prob not the meta info
[00:19] <jrib> Salvad1: yes
[00:19] <tristan> acerimer: not using usb creator.. just trying to use the hard drive to do it.. i have an iso i extracted to the partition.. im about to reboot but a new grub i believe is necessary...
[00:19] <jrib> sudotux: are you sure?  What did you do exactly?
[00:19] <tristan> i have windows7...
[00:19] <acerimmer> tristan: ah.  OK i officially don't know.   keep re-asking
[00:20] <tristan> and a partition ready to go
[00:20] <jrib> edwin___: in my case, when I go to print in OOo, I am offered a "generic printer" with postscript options
[00:21] <soreau> Is there a place to view recent official upgrades for lucid?
[00:21] <tristan> just made a partition to create a duel boot system.. anyone know what do i need to do to make my partition a bootable drive..
[00:21] <_94_> Sorry, my connection froze up on me.
[00:22] <_94_> has anyone updated with Wubi?
[00:22] <sudotux> jrib,  i was trying to clean up space and had 3 kernals... 1 old  ubuntu 1 new ubuntu and somehow i had a repo from google.com debain stable that loaded... I marked the old ubuntu and the debain for complete removal. with it it wanted to take linux-image ( meta info with the moron who said it was ok cause it just is meta info ) so i did it and now after a reboot i am stuck
[00:23] <tristan> just made a partition to create a duel boot system.. anyone know what do i need to do to make my partition a bootable drive..

[00:24] <zer0t0xic> tristan, and you want to install ubuntu ?
[00:24] <tristan> do i want to use the windows grub
[00:24] <sudotux> jrib,  i was trying to clean up space and had 3 kernals... 1 old  ubuntu 1 new ubuntu and somehow i had a repo from google.com debain stable that loaded... I marked the old ubuntu and the debain for complete removal. with it it wanted to take linux-image ( meta info with the moron who said it was ok cause it just is meta info ) so i did it and now after a reboot i am stuck
[00:25] <zer0t0xic> tristan, and you want to install ubuntu ?
[00:25] <tristan> can i install ubuntu from my wubi install or from virtual box or just add a grub entry to install it instead of usb or cd
[00:25] <tristan> or is the usb my best bet...
[00:25] <jrib> sudotux: he was correct, that package is just a meta-package
[00:26] <IdleOne> sudotux: please don't insult people with name calling. Also keep in mind that we are all volunteers and ultimately you are the Admin of your system and should check and recheck commands given to you before running them
[00:26] <sudotux> jrib, yeah it is a metapackage that said my kernal was installed and with it so the system thinks so as well
[00:27] <jrib> sudotux: which package did you not remove corresponding to your current kernel at the time?  linux-image-what?
[00:27] <sudotux> IdleOne, maybe but when you explictly ask if it is ok to do so 4 times and wind up with this problem
[00:27] <sudotux> jrib, the kernal that i kept was the most uptodate ubuntu
[00:27] <sudotux> !kernal
[00:27] <acicula> kernel
[00:27] <sudotux> opps
[00:28] <jrib> sudotux: "which package"
[00:28] <tristan> can i install ubuntu from my wubi install or from virtual box or just add a grub entry for my new partition to install it instead of usb or cd
[00:28] <pepee> tristan, you can do all of these
[00:28] <LinuxFreakD> tristan, boot from USB and let Linux do the partitioning.
[00:29] <pepee> tristan, the latter is called "hd-media installation", or something like that
[00:29] <tristan> can u guide me pepee.. preferr to learn to edit my grub

[00:32] <WindowsCapital> I already run CentOS on my servers.
[00:32] <IdleOne> WindowsCapital: Please read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[00:32] <thune3> sudotux: if the kernel is still there, you *could* try to boot manually from grub2. But chrooting according to jrib will still be easier, most probably.
[00:33] <WindowsCapital> Can I run gvim.exe on Debian? I need that program.
[00:33] <sudotux> thune3, was looking how to chroot the main file system
[00:33] <IdleOne> WindowsCapital: ask #debian
[00:33] <WindowsCapital> Err, I mean Ubuntu sorry.
[00:33] <sudotux> as for grub no there is only 2 entries and both of them are memtesk

[00:34] <WindowsCapital> Okay, WINE will run gvim.exe. Good.
[00:34] <scunizi> WindowsCapital: gvim is vim.. it's available in the repos

[00:37] <sudotux> jrib,  6.32.21-generic is "installed" but i think it just read my cd

[00:37] <brez> Hi, I just upgraded to 10.4, after a reboot I can no longer VNC into my headless box -> SSH works fine!
[00:37] <brez> Any ideas?
[00:37] <jrib> sudotux: then you didn't chroot...
[00:38] <sudotux> i chrooted by drive id and the prompt looked as though i was chrooted :(
[00:38] <WindowsCapital> stratblues, you need EFI support.
[00:38] <stratblues> efi support, ok ill check that out
[00:38] <neonlightning> http://tinyurl.com/28zf6r4 i followed that guide for the 2d desktop and then revoked it all and now i can still change my panel but i still have the une stuff coming up when i try and click the main menu button
[00:38] <jrib> sudotux: what does « ls /home » return?
[00:39] <jrib> !macbook | stratblues
[00:39] <sudotux> ubuntu :(
[00:39] <jrib> sudotux: then you didn't chroot
[00:39] <WindowsCapital> But seriously, installing Ubuntu on a Mac is like paying for sex with an Italian woman and then using up your night with her talking about Steve Jobs.
[00:39] <stratblues> does ubuntu not have efi support?
[00:40] <WindowsCapital> stratblues, it does support EFI.
[00:40] <stratblues> ahh reading now.. cool
[00:40] <sudotux> well sudo chroot  (drive id ) wtf
[00:40] <jrib> stratblues: I think you can use grub now, but it's probably easier to just use rEFIt.  At least for me, my OS X will not boot from grub :/
[00:40] <WindowsCapital> stratblues, you mean need grub-efi from apt.
[00:40] <acerimmer> stratblues: regit.
[00:40] <WindowsCapital> *may
[00:42] <jrib> WindowsCapital: I think it's more like getting the girl of your dreams for free because she loves you instead of the italian woman you paid for
[00:42] <thune3> sudotux: make directory and mount your ubuntu partition to it, then use that as NEWROOT in chroot command
[00:42]  * maco gapes
[00:42] <WindowsCapital> jrib, yeah but what if Madonna is the girl of my dreams?
[00:42] <brez> Err, after I type with my new installation of 10.4, the keyboard is messed up.
[00:43] <WindowsCapital> Anyway, stratblues needs grub-efi to solve his problems.
[00:43] <sudotux> ok working on it
[00:43] <stratblues> dont i just use bootcamp?
[00:43] <WindowsCapital> stratblues, bootcamp is Windows-specific.
[00:43] <acerimmer> stratblues: did you read the tutorial for installation?
[00:44] <stratblues> im reading that i can use bootcamp to boot into ubuntu
[00:44] <WindowsCapital> stratblues, but people do it: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=678542

[00:47] <jrib> isam_: how much ram do you have?
[00:47] <edwin___> dependencies will be installed aling the way
[00:47] <acicula> isam_, what page?
[00:47] <banker247> acerimmer: i used software center.. to install glhack
[00:47] <isam_> 3 GB
[00:47] <isam_> http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/download
[00:47] <pepee> xomp, apt-cache search freetype
[00:47] <xomp> pepee, thanks
[00:47] <acerimmer> banker247: did u get dependency errors after install?
[00:47] <pepee> np
[00:47] <isam_> It's a laptop
[00:47] <jrib> isam_: you can use 64bit if you want, but you won't really get much out of it.  If you plan on upgrading your ram later, definitely go with 64bit
[00:48] <banker247> acerimmer no errors at all game launches fine i see the splash screen then after that it just crashes and rezises my desktop to lower rez
[00:48] <isam_> Is it better to download 32-bit in my case?
[00:48] <DeliriumNocturnu> I restarted my machine after updating, now my internet isnt working
[00:48] <jrib> sudotux: chrooted now?
[00:49] <DeliriumNocturnu> it's replying to ping
[00:49] <scunizi> MagicJ: the other way to solve the NM appelate issue is to uninstall it and hand code /etc/network/interfaces and /etc/resolv.conf for dhcp or static ip addressing.. then they will never see an icon to connect/disconnect with
[00:49] <DeliriumNocturnu> the resolv.conf has my nameservers saved
[00:49] <acerimmer> banker247: most likely a display issue not dependency issue.  you have correct dirvers??
[00:49] <MagicJ> jrib, I have looked ate everything I can find altough not sure what two guides you refer to
[00:49] <brez> I upgraded to 10.4 last night, when I VNC into my box and type, the
[00:49] <DeliriumNocturnu> how do I refresh my network device?
[00:49] <brez>               keyboard is all messed up eg, space bar prints "7" - I checked the
[00:49] <thune3> sudotux: could just use Places-> to mount partition
[00:49] <banker247> acerimmer like for my vid card? yaup everything else seems to work fine.. this game is openGL by the way might i have to update that?
[00:49] <trism> MagicJ: nm-applet is started in System/Preferences/Startup Applications, just uncheck that and it shouldn't start (although the users could just add it back)
[00:50] <acerimmer> banker247: if there's a stable update for opengl, go for it..
[00:50] <jrib> MagicJ: http://library.gnome.org/admin/deployment-guide/ and http://library.gnome.org/admin/system-admin-guide/stable/lockdown-0.html.en .  Also, I don't know exactly what you are doing, but why not just let them use the guest account?  When they log out, it will be like they were never there
[00:50] <MagicJ> trism - if I remove it frm startup will I be connected to the web though, I tried killing the process and that removed the iconm but it removed the connection too
[00:51] <banker247> acerimmer should i jsut type opengl in the software center and download most that i see?
[00:51] <acerimmer> banker247: that's the safest approach
[00:51] <WindowsCapital> I WANT TO TROLL THIS CHANNEL SO BAD :<
[00:51] <trism> MagicJ: you need to check the "Available to all users" box on the connection edit dialog
[00:51] <WindowsCapital> I better go...
[00:52] <trism> MagicJ: otherwise the network will only connect when the user logs in (with nm-applet)
[00:52] <DeliriumNocturnu> any ideas?  I can ping inside my network, but cannot get to the internet
[00:52] <soreau> banker247: What is the output of glxinfo|grep renderer ?
[00:52] <MagicJ> jrib - yes - I have looked at those pages, they do not cover the issue that I have here, thanks
[00:52] <banker247> acerimmer can i paste you an error message in private chat?
[00:53] <MagicJ> trism, where is that box
[00:53] <banker247> i think its crashing because of no write permision to lock /var/games/glhack/perm!
[00:54] <soreau> banker247: better to use a pastebin service
[00:54] <trism> MagicJ: right click the nm-applet, edit connections, select the connection and click edit, it is at the bottom of that dialog (it is for wireless anyway)
[00:54] <DeliriumNocturnu> hmm
[00:55] <banker247> soreau know anything about this write permision thing?
[00:55] <masteris> How can I find out what the default character set is on my Ubuntu?
[00:55] <isam_> Can I install 32-bit version on 64-bit system?
[00:55] <soreau> banker247: Start with the output of glxinfo and pastebin it
[00:56] <MagicJ> interesting trism, it isn't there for me, on wireless, which is how I am connected right now - anyway why would that be important, surely if I don't start the task then the settings realy don't matter.
[00:57] <Nokeer> Hello, I have a problem here, while using aMSN, I can't see the end of my call webcam! any clue?
[00:57] <Haagimus> can anyone help me out with an XMMS2 issue
[00:57] <soreau> banker247: Pastebin != spamming me in pm

[00:58] <neezer> hi, I am having a problem playing sound from my HDMI port on my HP DV6. I have it running to a receiver hooked up to my speakers....does ubuntu even run HDMI ports?

[00:58] <Haagimus> i installed the full program through synaptic but there is no menu item and when launched via /usr/bin/xmms2d nothing opens even though it loads a process in the system monitor?
[00:58] <banker247> soreau ok i pasted it but i'm pretty sure its crashing because of write privilages or something because i can run other things/games just fine
[00:58] <Haagimus> anyone have any ideas at all
[00:58] <tic^> I'm having a problem with lucid changing my bios time for some reason, 10.04 set my bios time ahead by 4 hours everytime I boot into it. Anyone else noticed this happening?
[00:59] <soreau> banker247: You are wrong. Please pastebin /var/log/Xorg.0.log tp pastebin.org
[00:59] <Flannel> tic^: What timezone are you in?
[00:59] <MagicJ> I am probably going to lose connection since I am going to try the suggestions made to me here,  brb
[00:59] <tic^> Flannel: EST
[00:59] <Flannel> tic^: That's likely the cause.  Do you dualboot with windows by any chance?
[01:00] <wessel> hello, is there some more advanced screenshot tool available ?
[01:00] <edwin___> Sorry to insist. Does anyone experience printing to a file, using the default ptinter
[01:00] <banker247> soreau ok posted
[01:00] <InvaderZim> wessel: a digital camera?

[01:00] <tic^> I was, and also had trouble gertting into my bios using F2

[01:00] <soreau> banker247: You have to paste the link back here so we can see it
[01:00] <Flannel> tic^: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuTime#Multiple%20Boot%20Systems%20Time%20Conflicts
[01:00] <maraja> Is it normal the c0nection wifi turn to be slower on ubuntu than on macosx/
[01:00] <tic^> Flannel: I was, and also had trouble gertting into my bios using F2
[01:00] <maraja> ?
[01:01] <wessel> no
[01:01] <Flannel> tic^: The issue is that Linux (and most OSes) use UTC as the hardware time (the one your BIOS knows), and then uses an offset per user.  Whereas Windows uses localtime for your time, and doesn't have an offset.
[01:01] <wessel> not camera, just software
[01:01] <soreau> banker247: What is the output of echo $LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT  ?
[01:01] <Flannel> tic^: so, making one of them work like the other (whichever way you do it) is a solution
[01:01] <zer0t0xic> wessel,  try sudo apt-get install screenie
[01:01] <trism> MagicJ: it is important because the network will be started on boot by the network-manager service instead of by the nm-applet (unless you aren't going to use network-manager at all, which would work too)
[01:01] <Flannel> tic^: as far as the F2, I'm not sure.
[01:01] <zer0t0xic> wessel,  or try kGrab
[01:02] <banker247> soreau it sais 1
[01:02] <francobello> hey guys may somebody help me with the wireless issue
[01:02] <wessel> I dont have KDE installed
[01:02] <wessel> for I need it for kgrab?
[01:02] <tic^> Flannel: I had to clobber grub2 to get my bios back.
[01:02] <jrib> Haagimus: I think xmms2 uses a server-client model (install a client)
[01:02] <zer0t0xic> wessel,  aree you on gnome ?
[01:02] <Haagimus> ok ill give that a try
[01:02] <Puxel-7_> hi, i just got a samsung  lt 210 netbook, and i installed ubuntu 10.04 nbr. I have no wireless, and I don't even get a connection with an ethernet cable. How can i fix this?
[01:02] <wessel> yes I am
[01:03] <soreau> banker247: It seems you have proprietary drivers installed. Does it help if you try LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=0 glhack ?
[01:03] <brez> !
[01:03] <zer0t0xic> wessel, then you can install Kgrab
[01:03] <tic^> Flannel: I did reset Date and Time for auto update to a time server on EST.
[01:03] <sunmin> what is a good program to fix the smart status of a hd?

[01:04] <soreau> banker247: I am more familiar with the open radeon driver which also supports your card.
[01:04] <zer0t0xic> Puxel-7_, run lspci on terminal
[01:04] <banker247> soreau isn't that the one i have?
[01:05] <soreau> banker247: Does it help if you try LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=0 glhack ?
[01:05] <wessel> I'll try, I found this program "shutter" on google might be good also
[01:05] <soreau> banker247: you have not shown the link to your X log pastebin so I cant know for sure
[01:05] <maraja> is it normal the internet wifi conection turn to be slower on ubuntu than on macox on Macbook?

[01:07] <MagicJ> If I do not use nm-applet to connect and want to to it by editing the resolve.conf and interfaces files as is suggested here, what else do I need to do other than set those files the same way as they are when I am connected via nm-applet - clearly there must be something that actually does the connection and I have no idea what that would be
[01:07] <Puxel-7_> in a second, gotta put it on a thumbdrive, and send it over to my desktop
[01:07] <neezer> does anybody have experience with sending audio out from an hdmi cable on ubuntu?
[01:07] <zer0t0xic> Puxel-7_, now try this System > Administrator > Hardware Drivers
[01:07] <banker247> soreau crashed again check this http://paste.ubuntu.com/445342/
[01:07] <scunizi> MagicJ: nope.. that's all you need to do.. it's how the headless servers are setup

[01:09] <soreau> banker247: Then run it again
[01:09] <MagicJ> scunzi - well I just tried that, I made a note of what was in the two files, killed nm-applet and was no longer connected to the net - infact the way I am back here is that I manually re-started the applet
[01:09] <MagicJ> scunzi - the files were not changed by the kill, so I did not really do anything to them I guess
[01:09] <Vigo> MagicJ: Kubuntu?
[01:10] <scunizi> MagicJ: hang on... I'll give you a paste.. you have to add to those two files.. you can't just leave them as is..
[01:10] <banker247> soreu nope still sais no write permission to lock

[01:12] <cmihai> Hi. What's the shortcut to xkill in gnome? Used to be Ctrl-Alt-Esc... is there some default atm? Can't find it in keyb. shortcuts
[01:12] <Vigo> scunizi: Sweet, thank you.
[01:12] <YC> I'm not a programmer, and don't have the skills to do it myself
[01:12] <scunizi> MagicJ: my interfaces file is set for a static ip
[01:12] <soreau> YC: What kind of keyboard is it?
[01:12] <francobello> can i establish a wireless connection through backtrack running in virtual box ??
[01:12] <scunizi> Vigo: ?
[01:12] <wessel> zer0t0xic, screenie seems to be a terminal program :-/
[01:13] <YC> Yiddish keyboard, soreau
[01:13] <banker247> soreau nope crashed again i'll post
[01:13] <soreau> YC: Did you plug it in and is it recognized?
[01:13] <soreau> banker247: Try sudo chown -R $USER /var/games/glhack
[01:13] <Vigo> scunizi: Is/was good advice and a solid resolution, cheers.
[01:13] <YC> I don't actually HAVE the physical keyboard, soreau
[01:13] <YC> There is no layout
[01:13] <YC> The Hebrew layout used to have the special letters, but got rid of them
[01:13] <scunizi> Vigo: ah.. thanks
[01:13] <banker247> soreau http://paste.ubuntu.com/445346/
[01:13] <francobello> plz help guys .. can i establish a wireless connection through backtrack running in virtual box ??
[01:13] <soreau> YC: Well we cant help you get a keyboard working that you dont have
[01:13] <soreau> banker247: Try sudo chown -R $USER /var/games/glhack
[01:14] <MagicJ> scunzi, I am going to try that now, so if I loose connection, brb - ty
[01:14] <YC> You didn't listen then soreau
[01:14] <YC> I don't have a Inuktitut keyboard, or a Russian one, but I can choose their layouts...
[01:14] <scunizi> MagicJ: make sure NM doesn't start at all.. it will take over
[01:14] <zer0t0xic> wessel, use shutter then
[01:14] <YC> I'm talking about virtual keyboards, not real ones...
[01:14] <banker247> soreau crash again.. keeps saying oit can't find the file perm to lock!
[01:15] <MagicJ> scunzi, ok - for my test can I just kill it and then make those edits
[01:15] <soreau> banker247: What is the output of ls -l /var/games/glhack ?
[01:15] <MagicJ> ?
[01:15] <jrib> sudotux: still need help?
[01:15] <banker247> soreau that file is NOT there.
[01:15] <francobello> plz help guys .. can i establish a wireless connection through backtrack running in virtual box ??
[01:15] <scunizi> MagicJ: you can make the edits first if you want then kill it.. then sudo /etc/init.d/network restart.... gotta run.. see ya later..

[01:16] <banker247> soreau it should be.. i installed it from software center
[01:16] <IdleOne> Mikec887: take the dvd out
[01:16] <Mikec887> I can't get back onto Mac osx
[01:16] <Mikec887> yeah
[01:16] <Mikec887> i tried that
[01:16] <burnin> can someone direct me to a reliable and complete howto on setting up the nvidia binary 173xx drivers on Ubuntu 10.04 with a GeForce 5900FX card?
[01:16] <jrib> Mikec887: and?
[01:16] <soreau> banker247: Try sudo mkdir /var/games/glhack && sudo chown -R $USER /var/games/glhack
[01:16] <trism> MagicJ: my point earlier is if you make the connection available to all users, you can kill nm-applet but network-manager will keep the connection active in the background (you are likely going to need more to configure /etc/network/interfaces for wireless that what soreau gave you, such as encryption keys)
[01:16] <Mikec887> and when the computer reboots it says something about nothing is bootable, put a dvd into the drive
[01:16] <acerimmer> Mikec887: check the apple forums.  You need to reset your boot options but I don't remember where the setting is
[01:17] <Mikec887> right I know where it is on Mac OSX but I can't get back to there
[01:17] <Mikec887> thanks though

[01:18] <pyrokinetics_> I installed a device manager to automount my disks on boot but now i do not have rights anymore and i need to replug my bluetooth adapter on each boot to reconice my keyboard and mice.. is there a way to roll back changes in ubuntu 10.04 lucid?
[01:18] <MagicJ> trism - on the site in question it is a wired interface so we do not have that issue - what I am not understanding with your idea, trism, is how will I get connected if the nm-applet is not there - and as I said, I do not see that sher box that you mentioned
[01:18] <silvernode> maco, thanks!

[01:20] <maco> !backtrack | francobello
[01:20] <hiexpo> evening all
[01:21] <trism> MagicJ: the network-manager service starts at boot and automatically connects (don't know why you don't see the option), anyway, it isn't hard to configure /etc/network/interfaces for wireless either, was just another idea
[01:22] <YC> Funny how when you don't ask the same noobish questions as most, you don't get any answer :p
[01:22] <MagicJ> trism, I like the idea of having it all set in the file and removing the nm-applet - what changes do I need to make, if any to the resolve.conf file?
[01:23] <banker247> soreau ok i got it working
[01:23] <waseidel> hi there, somebody knows how to configure well a touchscreen on 10.04?
[01:23] <soreau> banker247: good. what did you do?
[01:23] <thune3> YC: i no longer feel good about the 4 minutes i've spent looking into your problem, thx
[01:23] <YC> Anyone here got any idea about keyboards in Linux?
[01:24] <banker247> soreau i just created that perm file it was looking for
[01:24] <YC> There's nothing to look up thune3
[01:24] <banker247> soreau i dont know why it wasn't installed.. i'm still learning ubuntu file system - like windows puts the application all in one folder why does linux spread it out overy many folders

[01:25] <jrib> MasterZuFu: what's confusing exactly?
[01:25] <MagicJ> trism, and that's it?  thanks, I do my own DNS so that's pretty easy
[01:25] <MagicJ> I really appreciate the help guys, this is GREAT!
[01:26] <acerimmer> MasterZuFu: also check teh server forums.  Not real time like irc, but a good resource nonetheless
[01:26] <brez> Hi, I have the US 105 Keyboard layout set on my fresh install of 10.04, when I type anything it's all crazy! eg: my space bar pints "7" - Please help it's making me crazy!
[01:26] <MasterZuFu> jrib: I just can't understand what it's asking me to do. I'm reading through it and it's got example lines, you might wanna do this lines, do this lines, i don't know what to do and what's an example of what to do
[01:26] <badnaam> hello all, how do I disable my touchpad, it moved while I am typing and causes chaos
[01:26] <jrib> MasterZuFu: what is the first such line?
[01:26] <soreau> banker247: /etc is for system configuration files, /usr is you main prefix. /var is typically used to store logs and such. In this case, I would blame the glhack dev for trying to store something in /var/games, unless he intends on the user having privileged access (bad for user progs like games)
[01:26] <acicula> !fhs
[01:26] <MasterZuFu> jrib, to be honest it's the entire file
[01:27] <jrib> badnaam: there should be an option in preferences somewhere...  If not, use syndaemon
[01:27] <badnaam> jrib I have set the preference in mouse
[01:27] <greg__> why do i have to log in everytime  the monitor goes to sleep in ubuntu 10.04? how do i change it?
[01:27] <starbuckt> brez, are you using gnome?
[01:27] <jrib> MasterZuFu: well the first couple of paragraphs are just plain english
[01:27] <MasterZuFu> jrib: i'm at the part of adding users to the list, but I think I've done got myself lost in all the file edits
[01:28] <acicula> MasterZuFu, if you cant understand the configuration file maybe look for another solution then running an ftp server
[01:28] <badnaam> jrib and I have  syndaemon running but dont know if its set up correctly
[01:28] <brez> starbuckt: Yes I am.
[01:28] <jrib> MasterZuFu: installing the server is just one command.  Then each section explains how to configure the server in different ways
[01:28] <badnaam> jrib can you pls help
[01:28] <brez> through ssh terminal its fine - but when I'm on gnome, it's screwed! :(
[01:28] <starbuckt> brez: if you haven't already, try "System -> Preferences -> Keyboard"
[01:28] <jrib> badnaam: depending on what flags you passed to it, it should disable your touchpad for a couple of seconds when you type
[01:29] <MasterZuFu> acicula: i'm trying to setup livezilla, which requires ftp for it's automated install. so i need ftp, there's not another solution for this that i'll be able to understand
[01:29] <brez> starbuckt: I have, and it's set to US LAyout 105 including windows keys; and it still doesn't work
[01:29] <YC> So, who decided that I'm not allowed to type in my language any more?
[01:29] <starbuckt> brez: is it a usb keyboard?
[01:29] <badnaam> I passed 2 second through the -i option, how do I see if its running? cause obviously it does not seem to be
[01:29] <greg__> is this the new default?
[01:29] <brez> yea, logitech g15.
[01:29] <jrib> badnaam: if you didn't get a new prompt, it is running
[01:29] <Maletor> If I'm installing on my macbook do I want amd64 or i386?
[01:29] <badnaam> jrib new prompt?
[01:30] <acicula> MasterZuFu, i dont know what livezilla is, but a poorly configured ftp server is equivalent to handing over the keys to the kingdom
[01:30] <MasterZuFu> Maletor it depends on what you're trying to run
[01:30] <jrib> greg__: in Screensaver preferences, you can tell ubuntu not to lock your screen
[01:30] <MagicJ> I have installed xubunto on a really old machine, a pentium 2, 300 machine, with only 160M of ram.  Amazingly it works VERY WELL until, periodically it starts to look for updates, upgrades, how do I stop it doing that.  I can do the apt-get update/upgrae manually and all works well
[01:30] <MasterZuFu> amd64 is 64bit and i386 is 32 bit
[01:30] <acerimmer> Maletor: http://www.google.com/url?q=https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBook&sa=X&ei=F-wKTJKgNZzwNJPc7LUE&ved=0CBoQzgQoADAA&usg=AFQjCNH_swuWTvPFG6xMHFl8WAtXY-mnbw
[01:30] <jrib> badnaam: yes, like the one you typed the command into
[01:30] <brez> starbuckt: yes, g15 logitech USB
[01:30] <MasterZuFu> acicula: which is why i'm asking for help.
[01:31] <badnaam> jrib ok, well I have done it my touchpad still moves thouhg, wonder if there is a status option
[01:31] <starbuckt> brez: on my ubuntu install, I can set my "Keyboard model" to Logitech g15
[01:31] <starbuckt> brez: did you try that?
[01:31] <greg__> jrib, thanks i knew it had to be something simple. 10.04 is a good release by the way. good job
[01:31] <jrib> badnaam: so you didn't get a new prompt then?
[01:31] <starbuckt> brez: i'm running 10.04
[01:31] <bastid_raZor> greg__: System > Adminstrations > Login Screen  .. check log in automatically
[01:31] <brez> starbuckt: yes, no difference - I am running 10.4 aswell.
[01:31] <Maletor> it does'nt say masterzufu and acerimmer
[01:31] <starbuckt> brez: hrm
[01:31] <badnaam> jrib I don't know what you mean by a prompt, i just typed syndaemon -i 2 -d and it just returned without any message
[01:32] <thune3> YC: what is wrong with the gnome instructions here, what is missing: http://wiki.jewishliturgy.org/Keyboard_Setup/Hebrew
[01:32] <jrib> greg__: bastid_raZor and I are answering different questions I guess, not sure what you want
[01:32] <bastid_raZor> greg__: if you were referring to logging in on a boot.
[01:32] <jrib> badnaam: ok.  You ran it as a daemon
[01:32] <badnaam> jrib thats why I am not sure whats happening, any way to find out if its running and with what option?
[01:32] <bastid_raZor> jrib: yeah, i just noticed too
[01:32] <jrib> badnaam: kill it and don't run it as a daemon
[01:32] <badnaam> jrib, why?
[01:32] <MasterZuFu> Maletor: you need to understand what the difference is between 64bit and 32bit. They are two very different type of program types
[01:32] <jacob_> Where can I get a copy of the Human theme? The default theme from 9.10?
[01:33] <greg__> jrib, same problem, two different solutions, both of which will work. thanks again
[01:33] <jrib> badnaam: because we want to know if it says something interesting
[01:33] <Maletor> masterzufu: so what is the major difference? what will i be trying to do?
[01:33] <starbuckt> brez: did you try googling? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LogitechG15
[01:33] <rejohn> Skype is not getting my USB headset mic input. The only skype option is PulseAudio. PulseAudio sees my USB headset mic fine.  Audacity records from my USB headset mic fine.  Suggestions to fix this? Thanks
[01:33] <starbuckt> Does anyone else have a problem where their USB devices stay on after shut-down?
[01:33] <badnaam> ah I see, so should I just type syndaemon -i 2 and let it run in the shell? I don't want it to occupy a shell tab though
[01:33] <MasterZuFu> Maletor: http://www.google.com/#hl=en&source=hp&q=what%27s+the+difference+between+64bit+and+32bit&aq=0&aqi=g1&aql=&oq=what%27s+the+difference+between+64bit+&gs_rfai=&fp=dfdf66882bd03aae
[01:34] <DarkStar11> what the program for Viewing pdfs called?
[01:34] <jrib> badnaam: we do while we try to figure out why it isn't working
[01:34] <badnaam> jrib, is this just for troubleshooting? cause I don't want to have to start it evverytime
[01:34] <jacob_> rejohn: Have you tried going to sond preferences, then the input tab, and making sure you are on the right Input Level?
[01:34] <jrib> badnaam: for troubleshootin
[01:34] <jrib> g
[01:34] <rejohn> !skype
[01:34] <jacob_> If you are rejohn, then I would suggest making sure you have the proper volume
[01:34] <DarkStar11> Anyone?
[01:34] <MasterZuFu> jrib: how do i uninstall this ftp server and just set it back to the way it was before?
[01:34] <thune3> DarkStar11: evince
[01:34] <badnaam> jrib ok, i did that and it just keeps alternating between disable and enable
[01:35] <jrib> MasterZuFu: apt-get purge whatever_package_you_installed
[01:35] <acerimmer> Maletor: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ProcessorArch
[01:35] <DarkStar11> thune3: thanks
[01:35] <jrib> badnaam: so it seems to be worknig then?
[01:35] <badnaam> jrib and if I type it stays disabled and when I stop affter 2 secs it enables, which looks good
[01:35] <jrib> badnaam: or at least claims to be
[01:35] <kevin_> test
[01:35] <badnaam> jrib, yeah exactly, but not sure why my mouse flies all the time, when it's supposed to be running as a daemon
[01:35] <brez> starbuckt: I'll give it a well!
[01:36] <jrib> badnaam: so when you don't run it as a daemon, the touchpad stops working as you expect it to?
[01:36] <lost> can i install adobe reader in firefox?
[01:36] <badnaam> jrib the touchpad does not stop working, rather it stop while i am tryping, isnthat what its supposed to do?
[01:36] <acerimmer> lost: through software center yes
[01:36] <Maletor> acerimmer: does amd64 = intel64
[01:36] <iceroot> if i am using dual-view, is there a key-combo to move the active-window to the other screen? without using the mouse? (and withount moving it with arrows by hand)
[01:36] <acerimmer> Maletor: yes
[01:37] <badnaam> jrib if yes, then i guess it is exhibiting that behaviour
[01:37] <xue> invite me
[01:37] <lost> rimmer it still send me a bin file ?
[01:37] <iceroot> in lucid, istn there anymore the sound-applet in the systray so that i can change the volume with the mousewheel? cant find it in applets if clicking the right button - add panel.
[01:37] <jrib> badnaam: well, yes, it should start working again 2s after your last keystroke.  Personally, I run it with -t and change the wait time to 1s
[01:38] <acerimmer> lost: remind me what you're talking about
[01:38] <acerimmer> and use tab to complete names
[01:38] <jrib> badnaam: now... try running it as a daemon again
[01:38] <lost> rimmer: thru adobe right? but its a bin instead of deb file
[01:38] <badnaam> ok, well thats what I have been doing since last 2 weeks,
[01:38] <jrib> badnaam: what do you want it to do?
[01:38] <xue> yup
[01:39] <acerimmer> lost: software center doesn't direct you to any bin files.
[01:39] <badnaam> jrib - I want my touchpad to not fly when I am typing, when I am not typing I want it to work
[01:39] <jrib> badnaam: oh you want to disable it forever?
[01:39] <xue> i am xue now
[01:39] <jrib> badnaam: isn't that what this does?
[01:39] <badnaam> jrib, no, not when its running as a daemon
[01:39] <lost> rimmer: did you try lately
[01:40] <jrib> badnaam: well I don't know why, but don't run it as a daemon then?
[01:40] <RPG-Master> anyone know how I might speed up a video?
[01:40] <RPG-Master> like, with a video editor
[01:40] <badnaam> jrib well I would rather not havce to start it all the time
[01:40] <jrib> badnaam: how were you starting it before?
[01:40] <badnaam> jrib as a daemon of course!
[01:40] <jrib> badnaam: you would still have to start it...
[01:41] <jrib> badnaam: you were using Startup Programs?
[01:41] <stuartcnz> There is a youtube tutorial on speeding up and slowing down video, search for the user vaasnaad.
[01:41] <acerimmer> lost: adobe reader 9 through software center is not bin
[01:41] <badnaam> jrib, ok, may be I am thinking that daemons start automatically on system start up?
[01:41] <MikeChelen> RPG-Master: which editor?
[01:41] <ugliefrog> is there something else like mythtv
[01:41] <iceroot> ugliefrog: vdr
[01:41] <jrib> badnaam: well, no, you would have to place the command somewhere
[01:41] <plecosotmus> what does PPA stand for?
[01:41] <jrib> !startup > badnaam
[01:41] <iceroot> !ppa | plecosotmus
[01:41] <MikeChelen> !PPA
[01:42] <plecosotmus> spanx
[01:42] <RPG-Master> MikeChelen: I'm asking, because OpenShot and PiTivi can't :/
[01:42] <iceroot> ugliefrog: and this xbox-thing  xmbc or something like that
[01:42] <badnaam> ubottu thanks
[01:42] <lost> rimmer: okay i found it. it default to bin first i had to choose another operating system
[01:42] <ugliefrog> iceroot, ill try iy
[01:42] <edwin___> how can i print to a file?
[01:43] <MikeChelen> ugliefrog: also check out boxee and moovida
[01:43] <MikeChelen> ugliefrog: which mythtv features are you interested in?
[01:43] <iceroot> edwin___: in the print-dialog there is the entry "print to file"§
[01:44] <YC> Back again
[01:44] <stuartcnz> Mencoder is one program that speeds and slows video. Also Cinelerra.
[01:44] <lost> can i report errors to ubuntu team for hibernation fix ?
[01:44] <pyrokinetics_> I need help with setting up a auto mount in fstab with correct permissions, my disks do mount now but i do not have permission to umount them
[01:44] <iceroot> !bug | lost
[01:44] <ugliefrog> MikeChelen, Well i thought i was going to be able to use it like windows mce i was wrong..doesnt work...community not helpfull at all
[01:44] <YC> Ok, I'm looking for some information on creating keyboard layouts, can anybody help me?
[01:44] <Maletor> Will I need to follow this tutorial or can I just boot up from CD and install?
[01:44] <Maletor> http://dave1022.wordpress.com/2010/05/26/installing-ubuntu-on-a-macbook-2/
[01:45] <edwin___> thanks!!!
[01:45] <thune3> YC: what is wrong with the gnome instructions here, what is missing: http://wiki.jewishliturgy.org/Keyboard_Setup/Hebrew
[01:45] <MikeChelen> ugliefrog: like win mce in what way? what are you trying to do?
[01:45] <iceroot> YC: what layout you need to create which doesnt exists?
[01:45] <YC> Yiddish, iceroot
[01:45] <lost> !bug
[01:45] <ugliefrog> MikeChelen, a video disk recorder...live tv...etc...schedule recordings
[01:45] <YC> thune3, that's a HEBREW layout...
[01:46] <lateralus01> i'm having a little trouble with nfs, my ubuntu server shares a filesystem, but the clients that use it in their root filesystem can't write to it
[01:46] <MikeChelen> RPG-Master: try kdenliven?
[01:46] <MikeChelen> ugliefrog: what about that can't mythtv do?
[01:46] <lost> okay thanks i will take a picture of the bug and sending the image file back
[01:46] <YC> Typing Yiddish in Hebrew is like typing Swedish in plain English...
[01:46] <arand> RPG-Master: I know that LiVES states that it can do time-stretching.
[01:47] <YC> Doesn't work...
[01:47] <RPG-Master> MikeChelen, arand: Thanks for the suggestions
[01:47] <Peddy> Which devel package would the function 'SDL_GetMouseState' be found in?
[01:47] <brez> starbuckt: that didn't work also :X
[01:48] <ugliefrog> MikeChelen, ohhh...sorry thats the problem It wont work on my system for what ever reason...I cant watch tv or anything with it...and there community is not helpful they act as if you should be an expert or something. I dont get it
[01:48] <RPG-Master> ok,are their any other desktop recording programs other than GTK-RecordMyDesktop and RecordItNow?
[01:48] <colk> I have the creative soundblaster X-fi xtreme and it dosent seem to work with linux the drivers load but I dont get any sound
[01:48] <thune3> YC: see language-pack-gnome-yi in package manager
[01:49] <tomcat025> Howdy folks. I have a rather odd problem. I cannot seem to get video via any player to port through my HDMI yet I have the sound working lovely. In Lucid amd64
[01:49] <colk> is that a supported card in linux or am I in the same boat as I was with a Xfi a year or 2 ago
[01:49] <colk> tomcat0205 what video card?
[01:49] <IdleOne> !sound | colk
[01:49] <YC> There is such a package thune3 ?
[01:49] <MikeChelen> ugliefrog: any idea which part isn't working? try the mythbuntu control center to help with setup, also check out #mythtv-users
[01:49] <tomcat025> colk: I cannot recall. What was hte commend to find out? Been a while
[01:49] <starbuckt> brez: that sucks man, did you check your xorg.conf?
[01:50] <MikeChelen> RPG-Master: vlc can also record from the screen, if configured properly
[01:50] <thune3> YC: it's in the karmic repo. search for yiddish in synaptic
[01:50] <colk> from commandline lspci -v |grep vga
[01:50] <brez> what would I be checking in there? (it's a headless box)
[01:50] <thune3> YC: i don't know about lucid, hold on
[01:50] <YC> I'm actually using Fedora here thune3 , this stuff will still apply, I'm guessing
[01:50] <YC> Still running Gnome after all
[01:50] <burnin> is anyone here running Ubuntu 10.04 and using the 173xx binary nvidia drivers with something close to a geforce 5900 card? No matter what I do with the xorg.conf file all I can get are cycling reboots or a complete lock up of the system.
[01:51] <YC> Most things, especially a keyboard, should be the same
[01:51] <ugliefrog> MikeChelen, i dont know which part isnt working..i hit watch tv..it shows ..please wait then returns back to the menu after a few seconds
[01:51] <rejohn> jacob_:  My skype version, which was just installed so must be the latest version, doesn't have a sound preferences.  It has:  Skype menu > Options > Sound devices > microphone > PulseAudio.  There is not other input option. There is no other input mic volume control, that I can see.  suggestions?
[01:52] <thune3> YC: it's in lucid. but it is not installed by default. you should be able to install a package
[01:52] <YC> I don't use Ubuntu
[01:52] <YC> I mentioned that up there
[01:52] <thune3> YC: you are on your own to find the package then, but gnome has one.
[01:52] <YC> Yeah
[01:52] <brez> starbuckt: what would I be using xorg for?
[01:52] <tomcat025> colk for some reason it is giving me syntax errors. Let me see if I can get back into this room from that laptop. Be right back
[01:53] <MikeChelen> ugliefrog: sounds like the tv tuner is not set up properly, what card/chipset is it?
[01:53] <colk> ok easier way would be lsmod
[01:53] <wieshka> RPG-Master: you can record your desktop with ffmpeg, vlc, mencoder
[01:53] <bastid_raZor> YC: you're not using ubuntu but want keyboard support for yiddish?
[01:53] <colk> let me switch to ubuntu real fast
[01:53] <YC> Well, it doesn't seem to exist at all bastid_raZor
[01:53] <Moviemaker1> I'm trying to configure a dialup modem, I've got the driver installed ok, I've done lshw -class modem and I got all the information(description, product, vendor,physical,bus info,version,clock,capabilities,configuration,resources,memory,ioport). My question is which one of these should be entered, when using pppconfig, for the Modem com port when it is pci modem?
[01:53] <ugliefrog> MikeChelen, Hauppauge HVR-1600
[01:54] <YC> I'm just trying to go to the place where I might get help getting it added to linux
[01:54] <bastid_raZor> YC: if you're not using Ubuntu then throw such a big fit in #ubuntu?
[01:54] <RPG-Master> wieshka: This is for a 13 year old girl who likes to do those "speed paint" videos... so no cli and complicated GUIs
[01:54] <YC> You don't need to be like that bastid_raZor
[01:54] <YC> I need help, I'm going anywhere I can to get it
[01:54] <bastid_raZor> YC: you don't need to act the way you are when your issues have nothing today with ubuntu.
[01:54] <artistx> Hey all, does anyone know how I can make my Macbook Pro boot from my harddrive again instead of the DVD, I can't get back onto Mac OSX to change the settings
[01:54] <MikeChelen> ugliefrog: check out http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Hauppauge_HVR-1600#Installation_Guide idk if there is any easier way
[01:55] <YC> Well, they do have something to do with Linux
[01:55] <bastid_raZor> YC: #ubuntu is not going to be able to help you.. since you're not using Ubuntu
[01:55] <wieshka> RPG-Master: write small bash script what lunched nad starts recording - assig script with desktop icons and you are ready to go :)
[01:55] <Big_D_271> is it a bad idea to place the "/" partition on the end of the disk and have "/home" partition on the start?
[01:55] <YC> You're not understanding me bastid_raZor
[01:55] <colk> that was easy
[01:55] <bastid_raZor> YC: i understand perfectly. you're not using ubuntu yet you want #ubuntu to help you.
[01:56] <colk> well the sound isnt working but ubuntu works
[01:56] <stuartcnz> On the Mackbook, hold down the option key when restarting, it will give you the option of which OS to boot from.
[01:56] <YC> No, you're still not getting me
[01:56] <artistx> yayyy thanks so much I'll try it out
[01:56] <maco> YC: #fedora
[01:56] <edbian> Big_D_271, The particular ordering doesn't really matter.  What matters more is that they're appropriately sized.
[01:56] <YC> Been there maco
[01:56] <maco> wait there longer?
[01:56] <bithash> Hello ppl, I am trying to get  vmware workstation to work on Ubuntu 10.4 lts that I recently upgraded to.
[01:56] <sag> Any chance I might get some WNA1000 help in here tonight?
[01:56] <ugliefrog> MikeChelen, I followed it already...thats why Im lost..I dont know what else to do
[01:56] <maco> patience, it is a virtue
[01:57] <YC> Ok, nobody here can look outside Ubuntu?
[01:57] <YC> And see the bigger picture?
[01:57] <tomcat025> colk, that was lspci -v |grep -vga ?
[01:57] <bithash> uname -a shows that my kernel is based on 2.6.31-19-generic for which I cannot seem to be able to find the kernel headers
[01:57] <bastid_raZor> YC: no, this channel is for ubuntu support. nothing else.
[01:57] <Big_D_271> edbian that would be good, as I am going to upgrad my mom's computer from 8.04, and want the "/home" partitioned seperate,a nd if I shrink it's easier than moving right?
[01:57] <bithash> any pointers on how I can get them?
[01:57] <YC> So, where do I go, bastid_raZor ?
[01:57] <edbian> YC, This is the ubuntu support channel.  Why don't you go to #linux
[01:57] <wieshka> YC i missed your porblem, sorry
[01:57] <anewbie> hi there i have problem with ubuntu 10.04 and matrox g450 retro adapter :D
[01:57] <bastid_raZor> YC: ##linux or #fedora or whatever OS your using
[01:57] <colk> oh
[01:57] <YC> Fedora
[01:58] <anewbie> i cant setup screenresolution larger then 800x600
[01:58] <colk> lspci -v |grep VGA
[01:58] <colk> grep is case senstive
[01:58] <anewbie> can someone give a hand
[01:58] <YC> You think I'm an idiot, so there is no point remaining here
[01:58] <edbian> Big_D_271, Shrinking is fast.  Moving mean literally copying every bit of the data.  It takes a long time.
[01:58] <bastid_raZor> YC: good luck.
[01:58] <YC> Wait until they take your language away...you'll have a problem then...
[01:58] <YC> Don't say what you don't mean, bastid_raZor ...
[01:58] <anewbie> try few step by step tutorials with xandr but i cant make nothing how i am supposed to enable resolution larger then that
[01:58] <thune3> YC: i gave you the clues you need. and ubuntu supports your language
[01:58] <colk> !sound
[01:58] <Big_D_271> edbian, there is not performace issues with this sort of backwards configuration of the partitions?
[01:58] <bastid_raZor> YC: i do mean it.
[01:58] <anewbie> !video
[01:59] <anewbie> !resoltuin
[01:59] <tomcat025> colk, the GPU is a Geforce 8600m GT
[01:59] <GothSpark> can someone tell me how can I get rind of CrossOver ? , I tryed the graphical uninstaller and it does nothing , I tryed the command  sudo ~/cxoffice/bin/cxuninstall  and it get me an error telling that it is not found
[01:59] <anewbie> !resolution
[01:59] <edbian> Big_D_271, Nope.  The actual order of the partitions does not matter at all.  Hell they could be on different HDD's entirely!
[01:59] <tshirt> hi to everyone. I'm using bluefish 2.0 and tried to save: Could not save file conecta.php. Error opening file '/var/www/conecta.php': Permission denied. /var/www is -rw-rw-r--, my account is part of admins plus chmod 777 /var/www. Any idea ?
[01:59] <jepes1981> hi, I tried changing the default sound card but "cat /proc/asound/modules" both returned "snd_hda_intel"
[02:00] <MasterZuFu> I'm lost here. I think I messed something up when configuring the FTP on my Ubuntu 10.04 server earlier. Now I'm trying to login to Phpmyadmin and it's saying I can't login. But my forum's MySQL database seems to be functioning properly. So it's got to be phpmyadmin I think, but I"m not sure why it won't let me login.
[02:00] <aaandaiii> the crap i type is highlighted in blue, which prevents the recent urls from showing in firefox. how do i remove the blue crap
[02:00] <Big_D_271> edbian, thanks for your insight,  I knew the IRC would be a quick answer!  I shall commence the upgrading proceedure!
[02:00] <Big_D_271> :D
[02:00] <wieshka> tshirt: the problem solution must be with chown or chgrp
[02:00] <starbuckt> brez: xorg is the config file that defines many of your x-desktop settings (gnome).
[02:00] <edbian> Big_D_271, Good luck! :)  glad I could help
[02:00] <anewbie> ok this is absurd
[02:00] <anewbie> http://pastebin.com/per5C7rp
[02:00] <tomcat025> colk The odd part is that in the past I've had issue getting sound to work when video was fine. Seems to have waffled on me.
[02:01] <anewbie> is that realy the only possible resolution
[02:01] <jepes1981> any suggestion to disable the sound card from my GPU?
[02:01] <anewbie> i have a debian lenny on the same configuration
[02:01] <plecosotmus> what is the difference between 2.6.34-5.14~lucid1 and 2.6.34.5.5 :-) ?
[02:01] <tshirt> wieshka: I'm rookie could you be more explicit ?
[02:01] <hiexpo> !anewb | ask
[02:01] <colk> tomcat lsmod |grep nvidia
[02:01] <anewbie> i was use resolutions like 1024x768 and lareger
[02:01] <colk> see if your running the nvidia driver
[02:01] <hiexpo> !ask | anewbie
[02:02] <bithash> Hello ppl, I am trying to get  vmware workstation to work on Ubuntu 10.4 lts that I recently upgraded to.
[02:02] <anewbie> but i dont ask to ask ...
[02:02] <bithash> uname -a shows that my kernel is based on 2.6.31-19-generic for which I cannot seem to be able to find the kernel headers
[02:02] <histo> anewbie: what type of video card do you have?
[02:02] <colk> fun I broke the kernel even more
[02:02] <bithash> any pointers on how I can get them?
[02:02] <anewbie> matrox g450
[02:02] <anewbie> i use the mga driver
[02:02] <histo> bithash: you may want ot ask the vmware people.
[02:02] <tomcat025> colk nvidia              10799466  52
[02:02] <wieshka> tshirt: with comamnd chown you can change file owner ship, with chgrp file group , with chmod you can change file permisions
[02:02] <bithash> histo: checking with them as well :)
[02:02] <colk> should be able to hit Alt + F2 and run nvidia-settings in X
[02:03] <tomcat025> colk how so?
[02:03] <bastid_raZor> colk: gksudo nvidia-settings
[02:03] <wieshka> to edit file, you must be in group of owners or owner of file and file must have correct permisions (write)
[02:03] <DarkwingDuck> ohhhhh My next play toy. https://store.archos.com/archos-tablet-p-96.html
[02:03] <tomcat025> colk would it make a difference if I add my tv as an additional screen instead of the standard mirror?
[02:04] <tomcat025> I really would prefer to not mirror the laptop display
[02:04] <tshirt> wieshka: but im the ownner  i mean im creating it .... am i wrong
[02:05] <loopidity> how would I change the name of my computer
[02:05] <MasterZuFu> WTF! why won't phpmyadmin let me sign in?! :'(
[02:05] <wieshka> if you have problems with file creatio (you create file, when first time save it) - the problem of ownership/permissions is to folder, where you are trying to save file
[02:05] <wieshka> check permissions for that folder
[02:05] <wieshka> after that everythingnshould be ok
[02:05] <edbian> loopidity, Change the name in the file /etc/hostname
[02:05] <zer0t0xic> loopidity, open terminal Input the following command and hit Enter:
[02:05] <zer0t0xic> gksudo gedit /etc/hostname
[02:05] <edbian> loopidity, It will take effect after a reboot or once you run sudo hostname <yourNewHostname>
[02:05] <loopidity> i changed the hostname file and also hosts file
[02:05] <anewbie> :( thats quite bad that happend to me i change my fully operational debian system for that ubuntu that can't detect my screen and video adapter correct
[02:06] <tshirt> wieshka: /var/www and its -rw-rw-r--
[02:06] <loopidity> so is a reboot needed? i logged out and in and no effect
[02:06] <edbian> loopidity, See what I said?  You have to reboot or use sudo hostname <someNewHostName>
[02:06] <loopidity> ok
[02:06] <loopidity> gotcha
[02:06] <loopidity> and how about the name in the hosts file? should i change that also?
[02:07] <edbian> loopidity, read what I wrote
[02:07] <anewbie> i see no one can't help me here :(
[02:07] <bastid_raZor> tshirt: /var/www needs to execute also
[02:07] <wieshka> tshirt: sorry i have no time anymore - have to sleep a little bit - bet here you are - read - http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/unix-or-linux-commands-for-changing-user-rights.html
[02:08] <tshirt> bastid_raZor: and how can i do that
[02:08] <wieshka> chmod +x
[02:08] <MasterZuFu> PHPMyAdmin is giving me this error when I try to sign in: #1045 Cannot log in to the MySQL server
[02:08] <tomcat025> colk,I am running driver. V 195.36.15
[02:08] <tshirt> wieshka;big thanks
[02:08] <MasterZuFu> I know the password is correct
[02:08] <bastid_raZor> tshirt: sudo chmod 755 /var/www
[02:09] <loopidity> thanks edbian that worked, so if I understand well, I dont need to deal with the /etc/hosts file then?
[02:09] <wieshka> bastid_raZor: for directory use -r / -R option also
[02:09] <edbian> loopidity, The /etc/hosts is for ip resolution.
[02:09] <wieshka> ups i mean tshirt
[02:09] <bastid_raZor> wieshka: everything in that directory does not need execute
[02:09] <tshirt> bastid_raZor: ok. i'll try i'll be back on a min
[02:09] <edbian> loopidity, /etc/hostname is how the computer remember's it's hostname after a reboot.
[02:10] <loopidity> hmm..okay
[02:10] <loopidity> thank you
[02:10] <edbian> loopidity, There is a bit about your hostname in /etc/hosts but I believe that gets updated from /etc/hostname after a reboot.  You might wanna try it and double check though
[02:10] <wieshka> bastid_raZor: i am speaking basicly about file permisions & ownership in this case :)
[02:10] <wieshka> explaining
[02:10] <bastid_raZor> wieshka: true, but in this instance it should not be used.
[02:10] <edbian> loopidity, No problem
[02:11] <wieshka> while i am stuck with calendarserver (Darwin DAV cal server)
[02:11] <loopidity> i am sure you know this as well, the old book I read says creating .bash_profile will autoload for each user,
[02:11] <jenue> guys, what's the nicest svn gui client for ubuntu?
[02:11] <loopidity> In ubuntu is that file .bashrc?
[02:11] <wieshka> loopidity: aha
[02:11] <anewbie> bah
[02:12] <anewbie> anyone here that use videocard like mine ?
[02:12] <anewbie> matrox g450
[02:12] <anewbie> or something familiar that i can talk to
[02:12] <anewbie> becouse i am totaly stuck
[02:12] <wieshka> loopidity: by default there is: .bash_aliases  .bash_history  .bashrc
[02:12] <tshirt> bastid_raZor: sudo chmod 755 /var/www doesnt work
[02:12] <loopidity> yup,
[02:13] <edbian> loopidity, I'm actually not sure.  I'm running Debian and I have both files.  Each one seems to be able to create aliases
[02:13] <loopidity> okay, one final thing
[02:13] <wieshka> loopidity: check if in bashrc the aliases arent commented out (.bash_aliases)
[02:13] <edbian> loopidity, One important distinction is that bash_profile is read when you loggin whereas bashrc is read each time you open a bash shell after youve logged in.
[02:14] <lost> its odd each time log on thru hotmail.com it doesnt remember my password even if i click yes
[02:14] <bastid_raZor> tshirt: what makes you say that?
[02:14] <loopidity> okay, i guess thats an important distinction
[02:14] <GothSpark> lost on what browser are you ?
[02:14] <lost> default FF
[02:15] <wieshka> bastid_raZor: in tshirt case i supouse he have mismatch of user groups
[02:15] <loopidity> and finally, how do I change the user name from terminal (now in the terminal I am logged in as root)
[02:15] <wieshka> loopidity: use su username
[02:15] <tshirt>  bastid_raZor: i still can not save file on /var/www im using blue fish
[02:15] <GothSpark> lost is your setting sets to default or have you clicked on never for this site when it prompted for saving the password ?
[02:16] <bastid_raZor> tshirt: ls -hal /var  and what does it say for www.. copy paste the entire line
[02:16] <loopidity> i mean change the name of the username, from username abc to username bca
[02:16] <brez> starbuckt: nothing has worked at all!.
[02:16] <edbian> loopidity, Do you want to log in as a different user or do you want to change some user's username ?
[02:16] <loopidity> yes
[02:16] <edbian> loopidity, It was not a yes or no question...
[02:16] <wieshka> loopidity: yes what ? :)
[02:16] <loopidity> can i do that without logging out? through terminal
[02:16] <darkfrog> hey guys, I'm trying to use "screen" and run "finch" but instead of color I get ascii junk on the screen...is there something I need  .
[02:16] <darkfrog> .to configure to make screen handle ansii?
[02:16] <brez> starbuckt: I even got the xkb from another fresh install of ubuntu, still nothing.
[02:16] <marcosroriz> hello guys
[02:16] <marcosroriz> can anyone help me with sound?
[02:16] <loopidity> i wan to change the username of a user
[02:17] <starbuckt> brez: no ideas, maybe try a different keyboard?
[02:17] <loopidity> and i am logged in as the same user though
[02:17] <wildbat> tshirt, recommend you make a user and change the apache setting to have the www root point to the dir in the new user home.
[02:17] <lost> Spark: good question. where can i reach that toggle to force it to remember that site
[02:17] <wieshka> loopidity: make another user with desired username and grant privilege what you need for that user
[02:17] <brez> starbuckt: it's always worked fine untill the upgrade last night ;o
[02:18] <starbuckt> brez: doh :(
[02:18] <edbian> loopidity, edit the /etc/passwd file
[02:18] <starbuckt> brez: what was upgraded?
[02:18] <brez> karmic -> Lucid
[02:18] <tshirt> thanks to all but i have to leave
[02:18] <Maletor> it doesn't look like /usr/local/bin is in my .bashrc..... So how come it is acting like it is?
[02:18] <GothSpark> lost open your ff3 browser and than go to edit => preferences , and you go to priracy section
[02:19] <anewbie> ahhh guys sorry to continue to write here but now i'm realy stuck i add a modeline via xrandr but when i try to use it i see an error msg like The selected configuration for displays could not be applied could not set the configuration for CRTC120
[02:19] <anewbie> ...
[02:19] <anewbie> is there any way to change that
[02:19] <xtheunknown0> Hi, could someone please help me with wireless?
[02:19] <anewbie> or i must get back to debian ?
[02:19] <wieshka> xtheunknown0: whats bthe problem ?
[02:20] <edbian> anewbie, You use Debian! :)
[02:20] <anewbie> :(
[02:20] <wieshka> edbian: :)
[02:20] <loopidity> edbian  , this is the passwd line, --> olduser:x:1000:1000:olduser,,,:/home/olduser:/bin/bash
[02:20] <anewbie> thats realy sad i install ubuntu becouse they update the stable branc far more fast then debian
[02:20] <loopidity> so i replace olduser with newuser
[02:20] <xtheunknown0> Well, the first time I installed ubuntu on my laptop I sort of got the wireless to talk to the router. But then I got fustrated and I've re-installed Ubuntu; can you help me set up wireless from scratch?
[02:20] <loopidity> should that do the trick?
[02:20] <GothSpark> lost sorry it is not priracy but security
[02:20] <anewbie> ... but why they update it with no support for all adapters
[02:21] <anewbie> ...
[02:21] <anewbie> ?
[02:21] <tomcat025> Anyone familiar with hdmi? I have an issue where I can get sound but no vid on a geforce 8600m GT using driver version 195.36.15
[02:21] <wieshka> xtheunknown0: what you meaned from scracth ?
[02:21] <tomcat025> Also, I cannot seem to get to vlc's setting s anymore. it is locked into xvideo
[02:21] <edbian> loopidity, the first one is the actual username.  Change it for that person to have a new one.  The second one is the person's "real name"  you can change that too
[02:21] <xtheunknown0> Well, I've just installed Ubuntu and I'm logged in. How do I get wireless working?
[02:21] <wieshka> xthe	what wireless device do you have ?
[02:21] <edbian> wieshka, :)
[02:21] <Lolatron> Hi everyone, if anyone here is Korean or is living on Korea, please PVT me.
[02:22] <edbian> anewbie, It's actually based on sid.
[02:22] <loopidity> edbian will the /home/olduser change automatically then after a reboot?
[02:22] <edbian> loopidity, No, change that manually in the file
[02:22] <xtheunknown0> From some terminal commands, I have the "Express Gigabit Ethernet Controller" - one of the common figures that showed up was RTL8111
[02:22] <bastid_raZor> !ko | Lolatron
[02:22] <edbian> loopidity, See it there?
[02:22] <anewbie> edbian, i know that but realy don understand why cannot setup the correct resolution
[02:23] <anewbie> ...
[02:23] <loopidity> edbian ok, thank you
[02:23] <anewbie> i just dont know what to try now ;(
[02:23] <wieshka> !lv | wieshka
[02:23] <edbian> anewbie, I suggest trying different drivers (kernel modules) for your video card. What kind of video card are you using?
[02:23] <anewbie> matrox g450
[02:24] <edbian> search that in synaptic and see if anything comes up
[02:24] <edbian> (Never heard of it)
[02:24] <anewbie> its old as the world
[02:24] <Vigo> loopidity: CLI or Graphical?
[02:24] <anewbie> my geforce 9600 blow up 2 capacitors
[02:24] <wieshka> xtheunknown0: my best suggestion is - join #linux-wireless - folks there helped me out on very advanced situations :)
[02:24] <anewbie> and no i have only that
[02:24] <edbian> anewbie, Ouch!
[02:24] <ugliefrog> what can i type into the terminal to completely  remove all traces of mythtv....logs and setup files ..etc...all of it
[02:24] <loopidity> Vigo CLI
[02:25] <edbian> ugliefrog, sudo apt-get purge mythtv   should get rid of everything except your ~/.mythtv
[02:25] <ugliefrog> edbian, ty..ill do it
[02:25] <Maletor> where is the path for /usr/local/bin set?
[02:25] <Maletor> it's not in .bashrc
[02:25] <edbian> ugliefrog, great :)
[02:25] <arbuckel> hi
[02:26] <arbuckel> how can i re-instantiate my grub?
[02:26] <arbuckel> grub doesn't come up anymore, i had to boot from my LiveUSB image
[02:26] <Vigo> loopidity: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[02:26] <arbuckel> the one i installed from, i just selected "try ubuntu"
[02:26] <wieshka> looks like i will go to sleep - my tests to my wireless CLI manager is done - everything works.
[02:26] <soreau> ! grub | arbuckel
[02:26] <bobbrown> !grub
[02:26] <DeliriumNocturnu> hm
[02:26] <anewbie> edbian, nope
[02:26] <anewbie> nothing that can help me
[02:26] <soreau> ! grub2 | arbuckel
[02:26] <DeliriumNocturnu> am I supposed to do sudo make
[02:26] <DeliriumNocturnu> or just make
[02:26] <arbuckel> soreau, only thing is, it wasn't after adding windows
[02:26] <edbian> anewbie, I'm not sure then! :(  Sorry
[02:26] <soreau> arbuckel: No matter, if it's broken, just reinstall it
[02:26] <arbuckel> soreau, i added the Brodcom STA driver under restricted drivers but i was running the rt kernel
[02:27] <loopidity> edbian, one critical question, by changing the /home/olduser to /home/newuser in the passwd file, will that affect the programs I have installed....
[02:27] <arbuckel> and then it borked my grub :(
[02:27] <arbuckel> i had basically this same issue on 10.04
[02:27] <arbuckel> so i moved back to 9.10 to see if it was fixed, but not really
[02:27] <arbuckel> all 64 bit btw
[02:27] <loopidity> I want to keep everything from the olduser but the name
[02:27] <arbuckel> that's probably the problem
[02:27] <anewbie> edbian, thanks for the efort
[02:27] <anewbie> and have a nice evning
[02:27] <anewbie> :)
[02:28] <edbian> Well I had to help once I saw that he used Debian
[02:28] <bastid_raZor> echo $PATH
[02:28] <bastid_raZor> err
[02:28] <edbian> loopidity, The file only tells programs where that user's home is.  You need to change the home folder's name if you change it in the file.  Does that make sense?
[02:28] <Alloeishus> ive recently moved away from the OS giant and learning ubuntu linux. im having a hard time finding repositories ('s?) for gaming/internet/office genras
[02:28] <jepes1981> can someone assist me in troubleshooting my sound card conflict?
[02:29] <Alloeishus> (generes) excuse my english
[02:29] <edbian> Alloeishus,
[02:29] <xtheunknown0> I'm logged into a re-installatiuon of Ubuntu, can someone please help me with wireless setup?
[02:29] <edbian> Alloeishus, See my PM ?
[02:29] <zer0t0xic> jepes1981,  run lspci on terminal
[02:29] <Alloeishus> no
[02:29] <zer0t0xic> jepes1981, see if youre sound card is detected
[02:30] <zer0t0xic> jepes1981,  pastebin the output plz
[02:30] <loopidity> edbian not quite, just to tell to what i am doing, i am logged in as old user, but as root in the terminal, so i am editing the passwd file
[02:30] <loopidity> edbian so should i copy everything in /home/olduser to /home/newuser
[02:30] <loopidity> but creating it myself?
[02:30] <edbian> loopidity, You could do that.  Or just renamed /home/olduser to /home/newuser
[02:30] <jepes1981> zer0t0xic: it says NVidia and VT82xx
[02:31] <edbian> loopidity, No need to copy all the data.  Just change the name
[02:31] <edbian> loopidity, Get it?
[02:31] <loopidity> edbian, exactly, i thought that should work
[02:31] <loopidity> thank you, u r genius :)
[02:31] <marcosroriz> is there like a ubuntu-sound channel?
[02:31] <zer0t0xic> jepes1981,  run alsamixer on terminal, make sure Master is on 100 not muted
[02:31] <edbian> loopidity, No no, I just know more than you do.  That's all.
[02:32] <loopidity> i am playing alot with linux these days and it is so joyous!!! I hardly log into windows
[02:32] <loopidity> can I run a VM with windows on it inside Ubuntu? cause I need to do .net programming
[02:33] <loopidity> and thats all i use windows for
[02:33] <zer0t0xic> loopidity,  yes
[02:33] <jepes1981> zer0t0xic: the problem is the NVidia is being detected as the primary sound card. It has no details on amixer. I cant make seem to change the default sound to the built-in sound card.
[02:33] <loopidity> ls
[02:33] <loopidity> oops
[02:34] <jepes1981> zer0t0xic:http://pastebin.com/3ebNPBBj
[02:34] <loopidity> edbian shouldnt the password remain same?
[02:34] <jasmuz> loopidity: I hope you stop using windows altogether
[02:34] <ftumch> loopidity: maybe look at virtualbox for running Windows in a VM under Ubuntu
[02:34] <edbian> loopidity, Yeah
[02:34]  * ftumch and what jasmuz said
[02:35] <edbian> loopidity, Unless you want to change it, obviously.  But that is actually stored encrypted in /etc/shadow
[02:35] <loopidity> i can stop using windows for 2 reasons - .Net programming and browser testing in IE
[02:35] <ArchAngel_> i need to clean up grub. it has way to many entries from updating kernels and stuff. where is it ? menu.lst?
[02:35] <loopidity> edbian the new user name is not accepting the old password
[02:35] <edbian> loopidity, That sucks.  I stopped using windows 2 years ago.
[02:35] <edbian> loopidity, What error are you getting?
[02:35] <j_lite_> I too have stopped using windows
[02:35] <loopidity> cause I am a web developer too :( and old folks still use IE
[02:35] <zer0t0xic> jepes1981,  which is youre main sound card, the one built in with the computer ?
[02:35] <wieshka> loopidity: you can also run windows proces on ubuntu with wine
[02:36] <wieshka> i f nothing very specific needed
[02:36] <xuanming945> 这是什么平台阿
[02:36] <loopidity> Sorry, try again
[02:36] <wieshka> they run normally
[02:36] <ArchAngel_> is there another channel for boot menus?
[02:36] <loopidity> I tried wine 6 months back, and it wasnt good experience
[02:36] <j_lite_> There are sites that will test your page codes for various browser compatibilities
[02:36] <lost> Spark: i checked that security settting and no exceptions was found
[02:36] <wieshka> ArchAngel_: try /list grub
[02:37] <zer0t0xic> jepes1981,  try sudo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-alsa-karmic-generic and reboot
[02:37] <GothSpark> lost did you get a bar at the top when you have entered your password on hotmail ?
[02:37] <xuanming945> 有中国人没阿
[02:37] <ArchAngel_> wieshka, idiot
[02:37] <lost> Spark: no bar thats weirdos!
[02:37] <loopidity> edbian is the password related in anyway to the username?
[02:37] <ArchAngel_> any OTHER people have ideas on grub ?
[02:37] <edbian> loopidity, Well... yeah
[02:37] <jepes1981> zer0t0xic: I was using the built-in audio before and was working properly. then I installed a new GPU, the GPU is being detected also as a sound device and it becomes the default based on alsamixer
[02:37] <loopidity> oh no
[02:37] <edbian> loopidity, passwords are paired with a username.
[02:38] <edbian> loopidity, What is the error you're getting?
[02:38] <lost> FF 3.6.3 here
[02:38] <ArchAngel_> another wasted effort to find help in this childish channel
[02:38] <j_lite_> There is a post in Ubuntu forums on cleaning up grub entries
[02:38] <loopidity> so what do i do, luckily one of the terminal i am logged in as root
[02:38] <loopidity> it say sorry try again
[02:38] <GothSpark> lost , I find that wierd  mmm did you tryed on an other website ?
[02:38] <edbian> loopidity, Try not typing anything
[02:38] <tomcat025> Is anyone familiar with hdmi's ins and outs?
[02:38] <edbian> loopidity, As a failsafe I suggest creating a second account and making that account a sudoer so that you can shut down the machine.
[02:39] <edbian> loopidity, use: adduser
[02:39] <zer0t0xic> jepes1981,  you can try change youre default sound card by editing the asound.conf:  sudo gedit /etc/asound.conf
[02:39] <loopidity> doesnt work wither
[02:39] <lost> Spark: yeah some site do remember and pop up bar appear so i can choose
[02:39] <puff> I'm having trouble getting wireless to work on this Dell Lattitude D810, just installed ubuntu 10.4 LTS on it.
[02:39] <loopidity> can root change the password for my new username?
[02:39] <edbian> loopidity, Do you know how to make a user a sudoer?
[02:39] <skeledrew> hi. trying to install Lynx via Wubi. but i get the message "Error fsyncing/closing /dev/loop2: Input/output error" when it's completing the install. selecting retry gave "Operation not supported during write on /host/ubuntu/disks/swap.disk". choosing ignore "The creation of swap space in partition #1 of /host/ubuntu/disks/swap.disk failed". then it goes to the install screen for repartitioning, etc. quitting that causes it to r
[02:39] <Zela> Is there any photoshop technologies for ubuntu?
[02:39] <loopidity> not off the top of my head
[02:40] <puff> The gnome network manager applet appears to be somewaht different, under wireless networks it says "device not ready".
[02:40] <tomcat025> zela There's gimp2
[02:40] <edbian> Zela, gimp
[02:40] <IdleOne> !GIMP | Zela
[02:40] <jasmuz> Zela: what do you mean? GIMP is a photoshop replacement
[02:40] <Zela> ok thanks
[02:40] <edbian> loopidity, first create that second user
[02:40] <ftumch> puff: does it have a Broadcom chipset on the wireless? I know Dell use them sometimes - so no Linux drivers.
[02:40] <edbian> loopidity, Then add that user to /etc/sudoers (you'll need to be root to edit that file)
[02:40] <loopidity> edbian $ adduser seconduser
[02:40] <puff> Ugh... hm, how do I check?
[02:40] <ftumch> puff: but if so there are ways around it
[02:40] <Zela> jasmuz, can I use it to make like website designs?
[02:40] <ftumch> umm
[02:40] <edbian> loopidity, yep
[02:41] <GothSpark> lost so I can't figureout what's wrong
[02:41] <wieshka> puff: at terminal > lspci
[02:41] <edbian> loopidity, It should ask a bunch of questions
[02:41] <ftumch> puff: "sudo lspci" might tell you
[02:41] <jasmuz> Zela: if you have the skill, you can virtually make anything.
[02:41] <Zela> jasmuz, Thanks :)
[02:41] <jepes1981> zer0t0xic: weird, theres no asound.conf on /etc. BTW, im using karmic
[02:41] <j_lite_> Broadcom wireless is Supported on Linux, though you must use Ethernet to download restricted driver
[02:41] <jepes1981> i mean lucide
[02:42] <zer0t0xic> jepes1981,  oh okay, In terminal now type sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base
[02:42] <puff> Yup, broadcom BCM4311 Airforce 54g.
[02:42] <loopidity> edbian how to add him to the sudoers
[02:42] <ftumch> ahh, cool. j_lite_ is that recent?
[02:42] <edbian> loopidity, are you root?
[02:42]  * ftumch didn't work last time I tried :-)
[02:42] <zer0t0xic> jepes1981,  Find the place where it says something like # Prevent abnormal drivers from grabbing index 0 and in the list below add: options snd_whateveryourcardnameswere index=-2
[02:42] <loopidity> edbian, luckily I had a terminal with root in it
[02:42] <j_lite_> yes, I have Broadcom wireless on HP laptop
[02:42] <jasmuz> loopidity: sudo gedit /etc/sudoers
[02:42] <puff> j_lite_: Can I sneakernet it onto the box via usb key?
[02:42] <edbian> loopidity, visudo -f /etc/sudoers
[02:43] <j_lite_> All Ubuntu versions so far are compatible
[02:43] <edbian> loopidity, Then add <secondUser> so it is in the same fashion as the other users root and your old username
[02:43] <lost> Spark: i am not a guru but i just expect to have it working like it does in xp or vista
[02:43] <RudyValencia> My laptop crashes when I try to use the b43 driver to enable its BCM4306 WiFi chipset; I have to use ndiswrapper to get it to work. Have I possibly found a bug in b43?
[02:43] <edbian> ALL =(ALL) ALL
[02:43] <puff> I rally wish the installer would at least warn you about this stuff.
[02:43] <j_lite_> Try STA Wireless driver
[02:43] <Guest31930> hi, how do i open a port, i tried using ufw commands but my ports are still blocked, any ideas?
[02:43] <RudyValencia> j_lite_: my BCM4306 is not supported by STA
[02:44] <RudyValencia> Or at least I don't think it is...
[02:44] <zer0t0xic> jepes1981,  let me know if that fix youre problem
[02:44] <jepes1981> zer0t0xic : both are using snd-hda-intel for the driver.
[02:44] <burnin> heh, duh, with the nvidia 173xx binary driver my system was rebooting or freezing, installed the 96 driver and instead it gave me a warning "you need to attach the extra video card power cable dummy". Reloaded the 173xx drivers and all is good. :)
[02:44] <loopidity> edbian ok, i have a second sudoer now
[02:45] <jepes1981> zer0t0xic : this is where I hit a brick wall.
[02:45] <jenue> guys, what svn gui client do you use?
[02:45] <edbian> loopidity, su to that new user and test it
[02:45] <bastid_raZor> edbian: loopidity to give another user root/sudo rights just add them to the admin group.. sudo adduser username admin
[02:45] <j_lite_> Rudy: Google "BCM4306 ubuntu" there are some results that will probably help you
[02:45] <RudyValencia> I don't know if using ndiswrapper is good but at least it's stable
[02:45] <zer0t0xic> jepes1981, open the alsa-base.conf, by useing terminal sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf
[02:45] <evilsherpa> hi all, i seem unable to mount my ipod classic 160, i cant mount it with write access, only read access, i can create and save a document to the ipod if i use gedit as root, but cant if i try with banshee or gtkpod, even if i open those apps as root
[02:45] <edbian> loopidity, bastid_raZor That method works as well but you already did the first one.
[02:45] <loopidity> edbian Bareword "olduser" not allowed while "strict subs" in use at (eval 1) line 1.
[02:46] <RudyValencia> j_lite_: I've successfully used b43 in prior versions of Ubuntu
[02:46] <loopidity> cant rename though
[02:46] <wieshka> RudyValencia: ndiswpper works for me good :)
[02:46] <puff> Anybody gotta pointer to a howto for the broadcom on 10.04?
[02:46] <zer0t0xic> jepes1981, ook for the line “# Prevent abnormal drivers from grabbing index 0″, then above it you want to put the following.. options snd_hda_intel index=1
[02:46] <loopidity> maybe cause i m logged in edbian
[02:46] <RudyValencia> I am just wondering why it doesn't work for me now
[02:46] <edbian> loopidity, Can you log into the new account you made?
[02:46] <puff> Maybe this one: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1390979
[02:46] <Guest31930> so anybody know how to set up firewall on this new ubuntu version?
[02:46] <edbian> loopidity, su <secondUser>
[02:46] <zer0t0xic> jepes1981,  his will force the other card to become index 0 and hence the default, and reboot youre system
[02:46] <loopidity> yes
[02:47] <edbian> loopidity, and you can sudo as that account?
[02:47] <j_lite_> In my experience, Install Ubuntu with wired Ethernet...will automatically detect Vroadcom and provide restricted driver, all you have to do is enable it.
[02:47] <loopidity> edbian yes, but cant rename the home folder for old user
[02:47] <evilsherpa> guest31930, i dont think ubuntu generally needs a firewall
[02:47] <Guest31930> well, my ports are blocked
[02:48] <jepes1981> zer0t0xic : can you help me check. http://pastebin.com/dua2shPQ
[02:48] <bastid_raZor> Guest31930: ports are normally closed unless some service is listening on it.
[02:48] <evilsherpa> guest31930 - thats kinda what a firewall does no?
[02:48] <edbian> loopidity, If you have a complete second account working and you can sudo as that second account than I recommend you restart the computer and try to log in as the 1st account with the new name
[02:48] <abstrakt> ok so i'm trying to get my wireless card working
[02:48] <abstrakt> i'm in System -> Administration -> Hardware Drivers
[02:49] <Guest31930> i set up x11vnc and ssh but can't connect to it, only telnet localhost port works, not ethernet address
[02:49] <abstrakt> and i've selected the Broadcom STA wireless driver
[02:49] <loopidity> edbian ok will do it, althoug i hate it cause i will again have a hard time making my HDSPA connect to internet easily again
[02:49] <abstrakt> and i rebooted
[02:49] <loopidity> thanks edbian, and hopefully see you in a bit
[02:49] <abstrakt> but at the bottom, it says this driver is activated but not in use
[02:49] <abstrakt> and when i click on my wireless tray icon there aren't any networks that appear
[02:49] <abstrakt> and when i right click said tray icon
[02:50] <abstrakt> all i see is "enable networking" which is checked, but "enable wireless" is not there
[02:50] <abstrakt> and i have the physical switch on my laptop set to the on position for wireless, and it works on the windows half of my dual boot
[02:50] <edbian> loopidity, Sorry for the inconvenience  Good luck!
[02:50] <abstrakt> so what's up? how do i get this to work?
[02:50] <wb4bbc> Adstaaky you might need to use ndis wrapper to get your Wireless card to work
[02:50] <RudyValencia> I might try STA
[02:50] <abstrakt> wb4bbc, well i had it working before this way
[02:50] <RudyValencia> just in case
[02:51] <abstrakt> Rudy77, erm, that's the one i'm using...
[02:51] <ftumch> Guest31930: can you connect from the local machine? That;s usually a simple test to see if it's firealled or not
[02:51] <abstrakt> Rudy77, i tried B43 first
[02:51] <wb4bbc> Did you up grade to the new ubuntu ?
[02:51] <abstrakt> wb4bbc, no i'm still on 9.10
[02:51] <Sonderblade> How do you list which files are installed by a package?
[02:51] <jepes1981> zer0t0xic : will be rebooting, brb
[02:51] <Guest31930> ftumch, i can connect using localhost but not using ethernet address
[02:51] <wb4bbc> Hmm what card does your Wireless use ?
[02:51] <lost> abs: try a fresh install
[02:51] <j_lite_> hmm...Once in the past I also had the same problem, though was solved when doing fresh install with Ethernet connected.
[02:51] <abstrakt> wb4bbc, afaik it uses the Broadcom STA driver
[02:52] <Guest31930> ftumch, x11vnc     1258 user    9u  IPv4   6951      0t0  TCP *:5900 (LISTEN)
[02:52] <abstrakt> i'm trying to use the realtime kernel, which maybe i shouldn't but i need the rt kernel
[02:52] <bastid_raZor> Sonderblade: dpkg -L packagename
[02:52] <abstrakt> i know it has been said that these drivers don't work so well with the rt kernel
[02:52] <j_lite_> yeah, my Broadcom also uses STA driver
[02:52] <ftumch> Guest31930: is iptables running? Can you connect from another machine on the same LAN?
[02:52] <abstrakt> much less the 64 bit rt kernel
[02:52] <longbi> hi
[02:52] <j_lite_> hi
[02:52] <Guest31930> ftumch, i cannot connect from another machine on the lan
[02:53] <abstrakt> it's probably the 64 bit that's killin me
[02:53] <wb4bbc> ads I do not have to much exp with the rt kernal so I guess I am uselss sorry
[02:53] <ftumch> Guest31930: is iptables running? :-)
[02:53]  * abstrakt wonders if ubuntu studio suffers from these issues :/
[02:53] <abstrakt> i haven't yet actually tried studio
[02:53] <wb4bbc> but I will do some search for you ads and if I find anything I will let yo know
[02:53] <Guest31930> ftumch, ps -e | grep ip doesn't give anything interesting
[02:53] <ftumch> Guest31930: if so, does it allow port 22 TCP in?
[02:54] <vatzec> Hey! What program does GNOME use when "safely removing" media?
[02:54] <abstrakt> wb4bbc, probably what you'll find is what i found that "it's not a good idea"
[02:54] <j_lite_> Has anyone noticed Ubuntu 10.04 being heavier/slower than 9.10 ?
[02:54] <abstrakt> and or "things are buggy" in this realm of which i speak
[02:54] <Guest31930> ftumch, it does not allow port 22 in
[02:54] <vatzec> Or, what terminal program could I use to "safely remove" media?
[02:55] <loopidity> edbian this a catch 22
[02:55] <Guest31930> ftumch, sudo ufw status => ... 22                         ALLOW       Anywhere ....
[02:55] <abstrakt> vatzec, umount
[02:55] <edbian> loopidity, What?
[02:55] <bastid_raZor> Guest31930: openssh-server to be able to connect via ssh
[02:56] <josueblusero> hola hola
[02:56] <Guest31930> i did install openssh-server
[02:56] <j_lite_> hola
[02:56] <loopidity> edbian i logged to second user,and tried changin the password the first user, but it asks for root password
[02:56] <ryankennedyc> hi
[02:56] <Arjes> Using latex, can anyone tell me how to remove a margin that is below an itemized list?
[02:56] <bastid_raZor> Guest31930: if you're behind a router you'll need to port forward
[02:56] <seph2death> Hey, I have a quick question that maybe one of you can answer...
[02:56] <edbian> loopidity, yeah.  The second user is a sudoer...
[02:56] <loopidity> edbian and the root password i use at terminal doesnt work
[02:56] <Alloeishus> anybody know how to add LGDB to my repo list? I know where to enter the info into my package installer but I dont understand the who line of code that goes into p-lacing a new repo into the list
[02:56] <ryankennedyc> what is this
[02:56] <loopidity> edbian yes
[02:56] <Guest31930> bastid_raZor, i am on the same machine
[02:56] <seph2death> I just bought a seagate 1 terabyte hdd..
[02:56] <edbian> loopidity, Do you have a root password?
[02:56] <ryankennedyc> 2555555
[02:56] <lost> whats the meaning of being nickel and diamonds?
[02:56] <Guest31930> bastid_raZor, i can connect to ssh if i use localhost, but not if i use ethernet address
[02:57] <seph2death> When I try to install ubuntu from a live usb disk.
[02:57] <loopidity> edbian not that i know of
[02:57] <edbian> loopidity, Can you log in as the original user with the new name?
[02:57] <seph2death> It always hangs before the partition editor..
[02:57] <loopidity> nop
[02:57] <bastid_raZor> Guest31930: what is the ip you're using?
[02:57] <seph2death> Any ideas how I can fix this?
[02:57] <loopidity> cause once i change the username, pass doesnt work. catch22
[02:58] <loopidity> edbian anyway, is there a default root pass?
[02:58] <edbian> loopidity, Oops.  I just took a look at /etc/shadow and realized why.  You need to edit that file too.
[02:58] <sylbot> Is there any wifi drivers for Linux? My wifi chip is dlink. USB. Dwa-130
[02:59] <jepes1981> zer0t0xic:I think I made a typho that why it didnt work the first time. its working perfectly now, thanks for the assitance
[02:59] <badnaam> hello all, how can I disable the shift key from activating my num pad? basically I wanna be able to select entire lines in my text editor doing shift+end or shift+home, but shift activated the numeric pad on my laptop and even if numlock is off I get 1 or 7 when I do shit+end
[02:59] <edbian> loopidity, We need to get a root shell some how.  Then we can fix everything.  So the second user cannot sudo becuase his own password doesn't work?
[02:59] <jepes1981> assistance*
[02:59] <edbian> loopidity, Can you somehow get any user than can sudo / be root?
[02:59] <edbian> loopidity, can you su root or sudo -i ?
[02:59] <Guest31930> ftumch, bastid_raZor, crap, no wonder it doesn't work, my dhcp server didn't give me static ip like i set it up to
[02:59] <loopidity> edbian i can get the second user root privilage
[02:59] <loopidity> edbian but i cant su root
[02:59] <bastid_raZor> Guest31930: ah, good catch.
[03:00] <Guest31930> thanks
[03:00] <edbian> loopidity, Use the second user,  edit /etc/shadow
[03:00] <ftumch> Guest31930: oops! :-P
[03:00] <edbian> loopidity, It should be kinda obvious once you have that file open what to do.
[03:00] <cjmaynar> evening all, i just put 10.04 on my laptop, but it's unable to detect the wireless network, I had the same problem when i put 8.04 on this machine, but the solution i tried then did not work this time
[03:00] <seph2death> Hey guys, I just bought a Seagate 1 terabyte hdd, and when I try to install ubuntu from a live usb, the installer hangs before it reachs the partitioner.. Any ideas why it is doing this and how I can fix it?
[03:00] <loopidity> edbian gotcha, so i change the olduser to new user
[03:00] <sylbot> Err. Anyone
[03:00] <edbian> loopidity, in /etc/shadow
[03:00] <edbian> loopidity, yes
[03:00] <cjmaynar> last time it was because the wireless card was not suported out of the box
[03:01] <cjmaynar> so, i had to run some modprobe commands to enable support
[03:01] <cjmaynar> this time, those commands failed
[03:01] <cjmaynar> the card is a Dell Broadcom BCM4311 802.11 b/g
[03:01] <edbian> loopidity, Then I suspect all will be back to normal
[03:01] <cjmaynar> if anyone could give me a lead in figuring it out, i'd appreciate
[03:01] <badnaam> hello all, how can I disable the shift key from activating my num pad? basically I wanna be able to select entire lines in my text editor doing shift+end or shift+home, but shift activated the numeric pad on my laptop and even if numlock is off I get 1 or 7 when I do shit+end
[03:01] <sylbot> I tried some broadcom drivers but they wouldn't work
[03:02] <puff> cjmaynar: I just dealt with that, had to find a wired network connectiona nd then select System/Hardware Drivers andinstall the broadcom fwcutter driver.
[03:02] <edbian> loopidity, You probably do have a root password btw.  I'm pretty sure the installer asks for one.  You probably just forgot because unless you su root you NEVER use the root password.
[03:02] <vatzec> Would umount also turn off power supply of a device?
[03:02] <puff> seph2death: I don't have a real clue, but I remember that years back, you had to install special drivers to recognize really large hard drives. Could it be something like that?
[03:02] <loopidity> edbian yes! thank you alot
[03:02] <loopidity> ls
[03:02] <loopidity> oops
[03:02] <gr8m8> vatzec: it shouldn't
[03:02] <edbian> loopidity, haha.  Glad I could help.  Things got nasty for a second there
[03:02] <cjmaynar> puff: ok, i'll give that a shot...now to find an ethernet cable...
[03:02] <IdleOne> badnaam: can you please correct the typo in the last two words of your post, making my client go crazy :)
[03:03] <puff> cjmaynar: I feel your pain :-).
[03:03] <loopidity> edbian any idea about the root password?
[03:03] <puff> cjmaynar: Fortunately I always carry a patch cable in my laptop case, for just such occasions.
[03:03] <badnaam> idleone, not sure what you mean by typo, which word? sorry
[03:03] <j_lite_> ok Broadcom Wireless users...https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx
[03:04] <vatzec> gr8m8: Thing is, I want to umount the device and THEN turn off the power supply (like the "Safely remove" option in GNOME does).
[03:04] <IdleOne> badnaam: you mean to type shift but you are missing the F in the last shift
[03:04] <edbian> loopidity, I have no idea!  I shouldn't know your root password.  In all honesty it's probably better off you don't know it.  That way you can't accidentally give it to anybody.  You have sudo.  That's enough.  I'm sure there is a way to change the root password using sudo if you ever want to.
[03:04] <seph2death> puff: I was wondering about that..
[03:04] <cjmaynar> puff: hah, unfortunatly, my cables are not within easy reach
[03:04] <seph2death> But I seem to be the only one having this problem?
[03:04] <cjmaynar> i'll have to dig one up somewhere
[03:04] <j_lite_> Broadcom Wireless users...https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx
[03:04] <cjmaynar> this may take some time...
[03:04] <badnaam> oops sorry
[03:04] <zer0t0xic> jepes1981, no problem
[03:04] <badnaam> well does anyone have any idea? I surely shift + end
[03:04] <IdleOne> badnaam: no worries I figured it was not intentional :)
[03:05] <seph2death> The system is brand new..
[03:05] <seph2death> And I've never had installer trouble like this before.
[03:05] <seph2death> The hard drive shows in bios and gparted
[03:05] <joel__> so I have ubuntu/windows7 dual booting on my machine, a few weeks ago I upgraded to lucid and i think it may have borked my grub2 settings, (cant boot into windows anymore, no error just blinking cursor) can someone point me in the right direction to get linux to do its automagic grub2 configuration?
[03:06] <seph2death> The partitioner part just seems to hang though?
[03:06] <wildbat> seph2death, check online for hdd firmware update ~ some 1T seagate is bugged
[03:06] <seph2death> Thanks wildbat..
[03:06] <seph2death> I'll check it out.

[03:07] <TragicSnowfall> Hey, I'm having issues with screen resolution that I haven't had in times past
[03:08] <TragicSnowfall> Is this something new, or am I just crazy?
[03:08] <edbian> TragicSnowfall, I vote that you're crazy.
[03:09] <tyler_> TragicSnowfall: We can't tell what the issue is if you don't provide any details.
[03:09] <tyler_> TragicSnowfall: Also, I am with edbian; I am voting that you're crazy. :P
[03:09] <TragicSnowfall> Well in 7.X I could set the resolutions without a hitch, but now I don't have anything but 800*600
[03:10] <tyler_> What is the resolution you want to set?
[03:10] <TragicSnowfall> 1024*768
[03:10] <edbian> TragicSnowfall, http://xkcd.com/722/
[03:10] <TragicSnowfall> Or thereabouts
[03:10] <tyler_> Open up the terminal.
[03:10] <tyler_> Type: 'xrandr -s 1024x768'
[03:10] <TragicSnowfall> I tried more buttons, but it didn't work
[03:11] <djuggler> I'm working on adding railo to a ubuntu 8.04 box. package manager has tomcat5.5 Is there a reason to not use tomcat6?
[03:11] <tyler_> TragicSnowfall: Did you try opening up a terminal session and typing the aforementioned command?
[03:11] <TragicSnowfall> Not found in available modes
[03:11] <edbian> TragicSnowfall, ha ha.  In all seriousness I suspect you simply have the wrong driver but I don't want to be the 5th helping so I'll just shut up.
[03:12] <tyler_> That was the error output? If so then edbian is correct; you probably have a driver problem.
[03:12] <TragicSnowfall> I honestly don't remember having to install graphics drivers in the past, but I have had problems doing so
[03:12] <RudyValencia> OK, I tried setting up STA but my hardware definitely is incompatible
[03:12] <edbian> TragicSnowfall, Easiest way: search the name of your card in synaptic and see what comes up
[03:13] <TragicSnowfall> I'll do that
[03:13] <RudyValencia> do I have to try and get a new WiFi card?
[03:13] <edbian> TragicSnowfall, Not the most robust way.  Just the easiest
[03:13] <TragicSnowfall> Actually, that may have been why I don't remeber installing them
[03:13] <badnaam> can someone help me please
[03:13] <TragicSnowfall> Heh
[03:14] <edbian> badnaam, Only if you tell us what is wrong.
[03:14] <badnaam> i would like to disable my shift key froom activating the numeric pad
[03:14] <edbian> badnaam, Come again?
[03:15] <etrask> When Ubuntu updates to a newer kernel, it keeps the old version in my /boot directory. Is it safe to delete the old ones? They still show up on my GRUB list and I don't know how to edit that either :(
[03:15] <badnaam> my shift key activates the num pad, so when I do a shift+end i get 7 instead of going to the end of the line
[03:15] <edbian> badnaam, turn on / off num lock?
[03:15] <Logicwrath> anyone using phplogcon or loganalyzer?
[03:16] <tyler_> etrask: Yes, it's safe to delete the older ones. You can do that through synaptic.
[03:16] <badnaam> edbian num lock is off, but shift activates it
[03:16] <etrask> tyler_ thank you
[03:16] <edbian> badnaam, I... don't... know...
[03:16] <edbian> badnaam, I think that has more to do with your keyboard than your OS
[03:17] <badnaam> its a laptop
[03:17] <edbian> badnaam, I suspected that
[03:17] <TragicSnowfall> Laptop keyboards can do quirky things
[03:17] <hiexpo> edbian,  - D
[03:18] <badnaam> it doesn't do that on my win7 dual boot
[03:18] <badnaam> so I am guessing it must be the way the OS is handling that stroke
[03:18] <badnaam> is it possible to just turn off the numeric pad? I don't need the number keys on there
[03:19] <hiexpo> configure the keyboard to do what ya want it to do
[03:19] <hufx> soh soh soh
[03:19] <edbian> badnaam, Just guessing here: try changing your keyboard layout and such in system -> preferences
[03:21] <hufx> I have arrived :)#
[03:21] <aLemmer> I'm looking to connect to a Windows XP VPN; anyone know how I can do this? I'm failing to get it to work with the help of Google and fiddling with the network manager.
[03:21] <tomcat025> I've two issues that I am trying to fix. One with no vid through hdmi and the other with vlc being stuck in xvideo mode with no way to change or even get to vlc options
[03:22] <STiK> lol what the hell I gonna do with this update.zip? :P

[03:23] <dancho> hello, a question, qt creator eats 100 CPU... in ubuntu 10.04
[03:23] <dancho> is there any workaround to it?
[03:23] <badnaam> edbian you might be something onto here. there is an option which sounds promising but I don't understand what is 3rd level is "shift does not cancel numlock  chooses 3rd level instead"
[03:24] <edbian> badnaam, 3rd level is the fn key on most laptops
[03:24] <KHF> I am trying to resize an unmounted ntfs partition in the ubuntu live cd so I can install 10.04 but gparted will not allow me to resize it
[03:24] <edbian> badnaam, Think of normal typing as 1st level, shift (upper case letters is 2nd level), 3rd level is the fn key on most laptops
[03:25] <edbian> badnaam, I think that sounds promising as well
[03:25] <badnaam> edbian thanks
[03:25] <edbian> badnaam, No probl
[03:25] <cjmaynar> puff: hah, that seems to have worked
[03:25] <cjmaynar> thnks much
[03:26] <adum> ahh it feels so good to be back in linux
[03:27] <adum> why did i ever leave

[03:27] <hufx> h3��0 3v3r0 0n3.
[03:27] <badnaam> edbian - you are the guru! "shift works like windows" did it!
[03:27] <edbian> badnaam, good
[03:28] <edbian> badnaam, I am happy to have achieve guru status in the eyes of one person. :)  That was a goal from long ago
[03:28] <edbian> badnaam, :D
[03:28] <edbian> s/achieve/achieved
[03:28] <soreau> n0sq_: I believe you need the nonfree version of vbox for usb to work
[03:28] <badnaam> edbian - it's time :)
[03:28] <n0sq_> soreau: bummer
[03:29] <dextro_> got a motherboard/psu/hdd in a styrofoam cooler and it stays warm in the winter but now that its starting to get warm out its getting too hot in the day
[03:29] <dextro_> im thinking put some fans in it but then it will freeze at night
[03:29] <bastid_raZor> n0sq_: the vbox-ose version in the repo's does not support USB
[03:29] <FlameTai1> Anyone here use TrueCrypt?
[03:29] <KHF> I am using gparted in a livecd trying to resize an ntfs partition to make room for an ext4 partition and a swap partition so I can install ubuntu on a friend's computer in a dual boot setup.
[03:29] <soreau> n0sq_: Actually, it's nonfree in the sense that ubuntu doesn't include it by default because of licensing or other issues. You can still actually d/l and install it for free AFAIK
[03:29] <KHF> FlameTai1: I do
[03:29] <dextro_> anyone know of a usb device or something that will turn fans on when cpu is warm and turn them off when its getting cold
[03:30] <bodom> Hello,
[03:30] <bodom> my system becomes stuck when doin' heavy disk I/O. Is there anything I can do to fix that?
[03:30] <Hostah> Hi.
[03:30] <FlameTai1> KHF: If you create a "New volume" to put it in like the file, If I set it for 44.8 GB's would it take up 44.8 GB's on the hard drive or just expand according to how many files I put in it?
[03:31] <jasmuz> bodom: how is your swap space and swappiness?
[03:31] <MagicJ> dextro - why not just get those fans that have temp sensing and auto speed setting
[03:31] <hufx> 74�|{ 70 m3 �337?
[03:31] <KHF> I am not certain, but I think the crypto nature of the volume means that it cannot be resized without being decrypted
[03:32] <KHF> hmmm...
[03:32] <bodom> jasmuz: 193Mb used, but looks stable. Is swap space affected when doing file copy like cp?
[03:32] <FlameTai1> I'll just test it I suppose KHF
[03:33] <KHF> yeah and if I am here, tell me what happens
[03:33] <n0sq_> bastid_raZor: ok, i thought that it would cost a few bucks to get the non-free version
[03:33] <jasmuz> bodom: I've had issues when doing heavy I/O, my ram gets a load and my swap isn't being cached to.
[03:34] <hufx> oppps    pure english now!!!#
[03:34] <jasmuz> bodom: just asking, what are the specs on your machine?
[03:34] <aLemmer> Anyone know?
[03:34] <KHF> does Zen have usb support?
[03:34] <bodom> jasmuz: mhhh... I have 86% CPU "wa" usage. What's wa for? It's a Dual core 2.x Ghz 1Gb ram notebook 160Gb sata HD
[03:36] <jasmuz> bodom: i see no reason for your machine ducking out when hit with heavy I/O, did you check the logfiles for any errors?
[03:37] <bastid_raZor> bodom: man top .. look at line 339. it describes what wa stands for
[03:37] <bodom> jasmuz: Apperently, I can't find any hd related error on dmesg, syslog or messages. I have some errors related to tv tuner card that I guess I can safely ignore
[03:38] <KHF> wa -> iowait: Amount of time the CPU has been waiting for I/O to complete.
[03:38] <jasmuz> Strange, how big is the load that you're copying?
[03:39] <hufx> 0|{ br14n 1 h3r3 wh47 �0� $4�

[03:40] <unclannedbar> hey I was wondering how i would embed a terminal on my desktop?
[03:40] <bodom> during a cp wa goes up to 85-95% making system unresponsive
[03:40] <longbi> im having trouble installing program, anyone help!!!!
[03:40] <KHF> longbi I reckon we could help
[03:41] <KHF> what is the program?
[03:41] <bodom> also, the file copy is very SLOW
[03:41] <FlameTai1> KHF: It takes up the space, but I read somewhere on it that it can be made another way but IDK how to.
[03:41] <KHF> I am having a problem resizing an ntfs partition, by the way
[03:41] <jasmuz> bodom: to what medium are you cp?
[03:41] <longbi> KHF: sudo apt-get install multiget" not working for me...
[03:42] <bodom> jasmuz: it's a cp from /dev/sda6 to /dev/sda6, same sata HD
[03:42] <bastid_raZor> unclannedbar: are you using compiz?
[03:42] <jasmuz> longbi: what is the response you're getting from the terminal?

[04:05] <hufx> bazhang:  HOW OT?
[04:05] <RudyValencia> oheyu is using a Japanese version of Windows so his system is sending wide Latin text instead of regular Latin text
[04:05] <maco> zcat[1]: they're double-width english letters, for when you're typing english in the middle of a japanese sentence. shows up fine for me, but then i have japanese fonts installed since i also know japanese
[04:06] <bastid_raZor> FlameTai1: can't you alt + middle click and resize them?
[04:06] <RudyValencia> he may not be able to fix it.
[04:06] <CountDuckula> flametail: in the manual
[04:06] <bnagy> he shouldn't need to fix it, it's fine for anyone using a properly configured client

[04:06] <RudyValencia> I can see it fine, myself, because I am using Windows 7, which has Japanese font support by default

[04:09] <IdleOne> !leet
[04:09] <CountDuckula> lol
[04:09] <RandBrittain> bazhang: Yes, I'm running it in Wine's XP/7 modes.
[04:09] <crdlb> oheyu: if you can't get it to join, copy-and-paste this : /join ##windows

[04:09] <RudyValencia> What is the best way to set up Samba share automounting on a laptop that may not always be on the LAN where the Samba shares are served from?
[04:10] <RandBrittain> Winehq is on FreeNode, then?
[04:10] <bazhang> RandBrittain, yes
[04:10] <bazhang> RandBrittain, /join #winehq
[04:11] <RandBrittain> Ah, I see. I tried to put in an old X-Fi sound card to see if that fixed the problem, but I can't get any sound out of it. Do you know why that might be?
[04:11] <hiexpo> IdleOne,  - was his fonts large are ure end also ?
[04:11] <RandBrittain> I was told Ubuntu had X-Fi drivers now.
[04:11] <hiexpo> are* on
[04:11] <hufx> 91v3 17 4 r3$7 will do!
[04:11] <bazhang> hufx, please use normal english

[04:12] <IdleOne> hiexpo: yes but his english was fine. distracting but he was not trolling in any way and asked a straight forward support question
[04:12] <hiexpo> IdleOne,  i agree i couldread it fine buthis font size was like 22
[04:13] <hufx> ditto! will do
[04:13] <zcat[1]> IdleOne:, hiexpo I can't read a single thing he says, it's just squares with 4-digit hex in them. I have him on ignore now. If he wants help he might be better of asking in plain text.
[04:13] <bodom> I guess I've found my issue at: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12309 . I'm gonna try to change elevator
[04:14] <IdleOne> zcat[1]: he has left.
[04:14] <Ganymede> zcat[1], it's because he was using full-width latin characters, they're meant to line up with japanese and chinese characters
[04:14] <Ganymede> zcat[1], they're in the unicode plane around where chinese ideographs are so that's why google thought it was chinese

[04:14] <bazhang> lets get back on topic please
[04:15] <zcat[1]> so this would be because his default language is chinese/japanses perhaps?
[04:15] <RudyValencia> zcat[1]: Yes.
[04:15] <bnagy> how about tasty, 8-bit clean bridging interface problems, like mine? :D
[04:15] <bobbrown> hiexpo: http://i.imgur.com/JryX0.png
[04:15] <bobbrown> hiexpo: thats what it should look like
[04:15] <zcat[1]> bazhang:  I consider this on-topic..
[04:15] <bobbrown> hiexpo: your terminal is misconfiged if it doesnt
[04:16] <bazhang> zcat[1], lets move on
[04:16] <pogs> brb
[04:16] <IdleOne> zcat[1]: to answer your question, yes. Now back to support :)
[04:16] <anthony> hi.  anyone who wants to help get my usb audio interface working?
[04:16] <zcat[1]> support question: how to I configure xchat to display the unicode characters we were just seeing before?
[04:17] <bazhang> zcat[1], I'd imagine the japanese chinese language packs
[04:17] <hiexpo> bobbrown,  it does look like that but his fonts are larger is all
[04:17] <zcat[1]> also if I paste them to gnome terminal I STILL see swuares with hex codes
[04:18] <bnagy> zcat[1]: that's your terminal being broken then, you shouldn't need any language packs to display wide latin
[04:18] <RPG-Master> if you heard a sample of a drum from a jimi hendrix song, used in another song... what would you think?
[04:18] <alexi5> for someone who wants to learn linux and develop apps for it , is it better to run linux in a vm  or bare hardware or it doesn't matter ?
[04:18] <RPG-Master> alexi5: pretty sure it doesn
[04:19] <RPG-Master> 't\
[04:19] <RPG-Master> matter
[04:19] <RPG-Master> :/

[04:19] <RPG-Master> fail on my part
[04:19] <bnagy> but I don't use gnome or xchat or pretty much any of the ubuntu gui so I can't help :(
[04:19] <alexi5> ok
[04:20] <RPG-Master> oh crap... wrong channel tab :P
[04:20] <RPG-Master> glad I could help though :P
[04:20] <bnagy> I do, however, have 8 10.04 servers where I can't get bridging running, if anyone has experience with it...

[04:23] <bnagy> zcat[1]: http://xchat.org/encoding/ ?
[04:23] <rww> bnagy: fyi, I just installed Ubuntu's default non-Latin font set and oheyu's stuff now shows up fine, so yes, it was fonts.
[04:24] <bnagy> rww: did you try just setting the system charset? I'm not trying to be smart, just asking
[04:25] <rww> bnagy: my entire stack from irc client, through screen, to my terminal is set to utf8. It's a font thing. Like I said, I installed fonts, it now works.
[04:26] <zcat[1]> encoding is set to utf-8 .. what's is supposed to be?
[04:26] <hufx> pearl jam rocks  :)
[04:26] <bnagy> rww: right, but if you do export CHARSET=ISO-8859-15 shouldn't that also fix it?

[04:26] <aTypical> Howdy, all.  I installed 10.04 on someone's PC and it's missing menu.lst in /boot/grub/.  Did 10.04 move to another method for controlling grub lists?
[04:26] <rww> bnagy: I have no idea, and this isn't something I intend to do.
[04:26] <hufx> oh please!
[04:26] <bazhang> aTypical, its grub2 now
[04:26] <bnagy> zcat[1]: on the page I posted, I think try Latin/Unicode Hybrid, I don't think it will support proper japanese etc but hsould support unicode latin

[04:27] <aTypical> Thank you, bazhang

[04:27] <zcat[1]> Hmm.. still squares
[04:27] <bnagy> zcat[1]: oops, that's not right :(
[04:27] <zcat[1]> just pasted his quit message, I have no idea what it says
[04:28] <hufx> bazhang:  ok!#
[04:28] <bnagy> speaking of grub, on my last dist-upgrade I couldn't roll it out automatically across all my servers because of the curses grub configurator, which kind of sucks
[04:28] <zcat[1]> someone else who can see 'wide english' please repaste something?
[04:29] <bnagy> < oheyu> no, I am still here, just not chatting because no one likes it.
[04:29] <bnagy> but I don't know if my client will paste back in wide

[04:35] <zcat[1]> Ganymede:  ??? ?? ???
[04:35] <tomcat025> flash can be apt installed as well
[04:36] <toenailTL> we'll funny thing is is youtube and some flash sites work but i went to a myspace page and install flash showing
[04:36] <cappicard> ok... pulseaudio is interfering with jboss!
[04:36] <Ganymede> zcat[1], man i don't know...it just worked for me out of the box...check you locales if it is set to UTF8...
[04:36] <cappicard> i can't get it from using port 4713, which jboss needs
[04:36] <jrib> toenailTL: what?
[04:36] <zcat[1]> It was set to utf-8, currently trying latin-unicode which also fails
[04:37] <jrib> zcat[1]: are you using a strange font?
[04:37] <toenailTL> sorry a  myspace band page
[04:37] <zcat[1]> not imporatant, I just can't help anyone who can't post in plain utf-8
[04:37] <jrib> toenailTL: what about it?
[04:37] <tomcat025> Is anyone familiar with xscreens and nvidia drivers via hdmi? I have my laptop hooked to my 42"tv but the tv's screen size is too big. I cannot see the menus
[04:38] <toenailTL> well were the media is supposed to be p[laying it says install flash player
[04:38] <zcat[1]> jrib:  I tried a whole bunch of different strange fonts, none of them seem to include those characters
[04:38] <tomcat025> toenailTL, did you restart your browser?
[04:38] <jrib> zcat[1]: you tried deja vu ?
[04:38] <zcat[1]> jrib:  I have a feeling I tried that font before...
[04:39] <bastid_raZor> zcat[1]: i actually use deja vu book mono. looks a bit better than yours :P

[04:39] <zcat[1]> trying deja vu mono now. It looks like crap AND I still can't see any of those characters
[04:40] <toenailTL> yes . ok pretty much flash only works on some sites so a simple solution i guess would be to uninstall then reinstall so how would i uninstall it
[04:40] <tomcat025> toenailTL, did you install the non-free version or the open version?
[04:40] <zcat[1]> Oops, wrong one, deja vu sans mono ... looks OK but still only seeing hex boxes

[04:41] <toenailTL> not to sound retarted but how can i check
[04:41] <zcat[1]> ff30 ff41 ff52 ... etc
[04:41] <tomcat025> toenailTL, good question. my brain just died. give  me a minute
[04:41] <toenailTL> im a slacker ubuntu user . i need to use it more cause i hate windows with a passion but i think i need it for my  presonus firepod
[04:41] <Random832> zcat[1]: those are fullwidth alphabetic characters - they can be found in japanese/chinese/korean fonts
[04:42] <Random832> the ons bastid_raZor pasted oheyu saying earlier, right?
[04:42] <bobbrown> echo lol |perl -e 'use encoding utf8; y/!-~/\x{ff01}-\x{ff5e}/ and print for <STDIN>'
[04:42] <tomcat025> toenailTL, You using FF? It should be listed under your plugins menu
[04:43] <zcat[1]> Random832:  no problem. Just means if an asian-speaking person comes on IRC then I can't help them unless they switch to the 'normal' English alphabet
[04:43] <EntityReborn> Hey. I have a friend trying to automount CIFS shares at boot, if connected to his home LAN via lappy. COuld I get some info to give him?

[04:44] <Random832> zcat[1]: i meant that more as a suggestion of what sort of fonts you should be installing if you want to be able to see them
[04:44] <EntityReborn> pip 1420
[04:44] <EntityReborn> including bots
[04:44] <pip> :-P
[04:44] <zcat[1]> 1418
[04:44] <EntityReborn> RudyValencia, hay :)
[04:44] <zcat[1]> but probably quite a lot are idling
[04:44] <Theo> Anybody help me mount a cd-drive?
[04:44] <EntityReborn> Any clues as to my question?
[04:45] <bobbrown> copy over all your win7 fonts and osx fonts to your ~/.fonts dir
[04:45] <RudyValencia> hey EntityReborn
[04:45] <Faithful> I have lost my volume applet and I don't know how to get it back again.
[04:45] <bobbrown> free fonts are generally crappy anyways, lack of unicode tables is a big problem, most only have glyphs for a couple here and there
[04:45] <pip> Is there any tool for system optimization ?
[04:45] <pip> Like powertop
[04:46] <zcat[1]> Faithful:  right-click a panel, 'add to panel', it's in there somewhere
[04:46] <bastid_raZor> pip: i'm glad you said that.. i was trying to think of that for two days now.
[04:46] <birchman> anyone know of new printers that are Linux friendly?
[04:46] <tyler_d> failed attempt at installing 10.04 from usb - I'm in live and it comes up with ubi-language failed.... the /var/log/syslog stated that I/O write failed... any clues would be great ??
[04:46] <EntityReborn> birchman, generially, most are.
[04:46] <maco> birchman: cant go wrong with an hp inkjet
[04:46] <birchman> nope
[04:47] <EntityReborn> Thanks to CUPS
[04:47] <maco> EntityReborn: lexmark are still pretty evil on linux
[04:47] <EntityReborn> tyler_d, maybe you have a bad HDD
[04:47] <birchman> I heard Epson is
[04:47] <Faithful> zcat[1], not that I can see
[04:47] <toenailTL> using firefox yes
[04:47] <EntityReborn> maco, ah
[04:47] <zcat[1]> birchman:  take your laptop to the store and test them. (if they won't let you test, go to another store)
[04:47] <EntityReborn> I have an Epson NX415
[04:47] <bastid_raZor> Lexmark == fail .. i have a 5070 all in one that sits collecting dust
[04:47] <maco> EntityReborn: its more like "generally, most *postscript* printers are"
[04:47] <EntityReborn> maco, good point.
[04:47] <bazhang> linuxprinting.org birchman check the printer database
[04:47] <birchman> what makes you think I have a laptop lol
[04:47] <tyler_d> EntityReborn: not likely, raid 10 with 6 drives
[04:48] <zcat[1]> Faithful:  right-click a panel, 'add to panel', "volume control"
[04:48] <birchman> good idea but sorry desktop
[04:48] <toenailTL> as far as checking plugins i have to say wow on my part me dont know how to do that but i once knew how to set up networks
[04:48] <zcat[1]> Lexmark are crap qlauity anyhow.. but a completely waste of time. No lexmark printer will work in any linux distro
[04:48] <EntityReborn> tyler_d,  I/O write failed makes me suspicious
[04:49] <tyler_d> EntityReborn: restarting to see if It wasn't a temp space issue
[04:49] <birchman> I know LexSPARK is what they should be called
[04:49] <Faithful> zcat[1], it's not there
[04:49] <toenailTL> i did google it though and it went to the mozilla page and i just updated flash so im gonna see that it doesnt work
[04:49] <zcat[1]> most good quality printers are plug and go in ubuntu
[04:49] <EntityReborn> tyler_d, that could be as well.
[04:49] <tyler_d> EntityReborn: it it was jbod I would question it
[04:49] <longbi> anyone know about empathy not opening???/
[04:49] <zcat[1]> .. but the way to be sure with any hardware is take your lappy with you when you shop
[04:50] <birchman> I have a mac and only use it for phots and printing off coupons for dinning
[04:50] <toenailTL> and it didnt work i love being a retarted drunk
[04:50] <birchman> I use Linux for the serious stuff
[04:50] <zcat[1]> anyone else know how to re-add the volume thingy? It's not where it was from 9.10 and before?
[04:51] <tomcat025> I am having an issue getting my secondary monitor (42" tv) to display properly over HDMI. Nvidia driver version 195.36.15 on a geforce 8600m gt gpu.
[04:51] <toenailTL> got a better question last time i installed ubuntu studio i think it was it worked once so does anyone knw if they got rid of all the bugs for that
[04:51] <pip> if I want to add any kernel module option, where is the best place to add ?
[04:51] <longbi> anyone?? empathy help?//
[04:51] <birchman> anybody like Ultimate edition?
[04:52] <bazhang> birchman, that is not supported here
[04:52] <pip> I mean what is the typical *Ubuntu* wya
[04:52] <zcat[1]> pip:  /etc/modconf.d/
[04:52] <tomcat025> ultimate edition of what?
[04:52] <birchman> oh sorry it is ubuntu thougjh
[04:52] <bastid_raZor> pip: /etc/modules
[04:52] <toenailTL> installing a tar.gz through shell ? anyone
[04:52] <bazhang> birchman, a derivative, but not Ubuntu
[04:52] <birchman> UE 2.6
[04:52] <bazhang> !derivatives > birchman
[04:52] <tyler_d> EntityReborn: installed now
[04:53] <bnagy> toenailTL: tar -zxvf filename will extract it to the current directory
[04:53] <zcat[1]> "ubuntu ultimate" is a remix, not an official canonical supported distro. It's be like supporting Mint!
[04:53] <EntityReborn> tyler_d, great news :P
[04:53] <Error404NotFound> looking for a tool to send files in email from commandline, i had it installed, just forgot the name.
[04:53] <birchman> It's just Ubuntu tweaked with all the favorite goodies out of the box
[04:53] <scunizi> Error404NotFound: mutt
[04:53] <zcat[1]> birchman:  so's mint ;)
[04:54] <birchman> yup used it before
[04:54] <bazhang> birchman, did you have an Ubuntu support question? chat in #ubuntu-offtopic please
[04:54] <toenailTL> bnagy its not xvfz eaither way i've extracted it allready
[04:54] <Error404NotFound> scunizi, nope, what i had was just used to send emails, not a complete mail reader type thing
[04:54] <tomcat025> I am having an issue getting my secondary monitor (42" tv) to display properly over HDMI. Nvidia driver version 195.36.15 on a geforce 8600m gt gpu.
[04:54] <scunizi> Error404NotFound: sendmail?
[04:54] <birchman> yes i did about what printer brands work best
[04:54] <zcat[1]> Sorry, it's be like asking ubuntu questions in #debian ;)
[04:54] <birchman> samething
[04:55] <bazhang> birchman, and I directed you to the linuxprinting.org database
[04:55] <Error404NotFound> scunizi, naaa, not even mailx, problem is i can't remember the name :(
[04:55] <birchman> sorry all the responds flash by so quickly
[04:55] <scunizi> Error404NotFound: have you searched synaptic with keywords?
[04:55] <tyler_d> excellent
[04:55] <toenailTL> bnagy what next
[04:55] <Aidar-Nagato> can someone show original sources.list?
[04:55] <Error404NotFound> scunizi, dpkg -l | grep mail, and man -k mail doesn't return anything
[04:56] <bnagy> toenailTL: sorry, I thought you wanted to know how to extract a tar.gz file (which IS tar -zxvf btw).. what are you trying to do now?
[04:56] <igoryonya> is there some command line or gui utility that allows to paste a certain data inside of a file. For example. I have some big file, say 1Gb, where I need to replace one spot somewhere in the middle of it (at a specified offset in bytes) with some other file's contents. For example: somePasteUtil hugeFile.bin --pasteOffset=358989098 pasteFile.bin
[04:56] <birchman> is thoggen illegal
[04:56] <longbi> hi dougdoug
[04:57] <zcat[1]> birchman:  the best option is to just test them and get a printer that works with NO effort. Don't get something that requires non-free packages either, there's no guarantee that they'll continue to support it through future upgrades of cups/kernel/whatever
[04:57] <toenailTL> its flash player its working like windows half ass (in a way )
[04:57] <wildbat> anyone if there is something for echo cancelling for the internal mic? ~ i got big echo while doing voice chatting .
[04:57] <scunizi> Error404NotFound: apt-cache search email
[04:57] <toenailTL> so download the tar.gz and now need to install the libflashplayer.so
[04:58] <zcat[1]> birchman:  lots of printers you can just plug in and wait, a bubble pops up saying the printer is ready, that's all you need to do... you want one of those printers
[04:58] <birchman> yup easy as pie printer
[04:58] <Error404NotFound> scunizi, its mpack, found it on another server, i had saved its name :)
[04:58] <RudyValencia> Hi, how do I mount Samba shares on a laptop where I can't use /etc/fstab because the laptop isn't always on the LAN or connected to the VPN?
[04:59] <toenailTL> bnagy be back in a bit did a update have to restart
[04:59] <scunizi> Error404NotFound: wow.. doing apt-cache search email doesn't turn that up
[04:59] <birchman> how do you get compiz to make the burn effect when you open something
[04:59] <birchman> I jave it slected and YES have an nvidia card running
[04:59] <bnagy> RudyValencia: rc.local?
[04:59] <zcat[1]> birchman:  compizconfig-settings-manager will let you adjust all those effects
[05:00] <Error404NotFound> scunizi, i never did that apt-cache instead turned to the other box which is relatively new and fully documented :) mpack is cool :)
[05:00] <RudyValencia> bnagy: I'm trying to set up autofs to do it but I can't get it to work
[05:00] <birchman> I had it working on 8.04 about a year ago but for now it will not
[05:00] <RudyValencia> I'm following http://www.howtoforge.com/accessing_windows_or_samba_shares_using_autofs
[05:00] <birchman> everything is checked as should be
[05:00] <Error404NotFound> scunizi, ssmtp + gmail + mpack and you have got the best :)
[05:00] <RudyValencia> and when I try to go to the /cifs directory autofs creates, I don't see my shares there.
[05:01] <bnagy> RudyValencia: this is probably a terrible idea but I would write a small script that checks the VPN status and then just runs mount if it's there? I'm not a support guy though, I'm just hanging out for someone that knows about bridge interfaces
[05:01] <RudyValencia> I don't know how to write scripts.
[05:01] <zcat[1]> bnagy:  that's what I'd have done too ;)
[05:01] <edbian> RudyValencia, I can help you write a script provided you know the terminal commands to check the VPN status
[05:02] <RudyValencia> I don't know. I'm new to desktop Linux.
[05:02] <callowayj> is it possible to have seperate wallpapers for each desktop in ubuntu?
[05:02] <edbian> RudyValencia, Have you connected to your VPN ever on linux?
[05:02] <RudyValencia> Yes
[05:02] <edbian> RudyValencia, How do you do it?
[05:03] <RudyValencia> I have Network Manager set up with an entry for my VPN
[05:03] <jmac> hi
[05:03] <jmac> Alguem from Brazil?
[05:03] <tyler_d> how do you run gparted from a live cd?
[05:03] <rww> !br | jmac
[05:03] <edbian> RudyValencia, We have to figure out a way from the terminal to tell if your VPN is reachable or not.
[05:03] <jmac> e ai rww
[05:03] <jmac> blz?
[05:04] <callowayj> go to System then administrator, then partition manager, I think
[05:04] <bnagy> edbian: how about ifconfig | grep my.vpn.ip ?
[05:04] <edbian> RudyValencia, I'm not very familiar with VPN's so this is difficult for me.  Once we have this bit figured out the rest is cake.
[05:04] <jmac> Que parte do brasil | rww
[05:04] <jmac> ?
[05:04] <edbian> bnagy, excellent
[05:04] <edbian> RudyValencia, does your vpn show up in the output of ifconfig ?
[05:04] <bazhang> jmac, /join #ubuntu-br
[05:04] <bnagy> edbian: I'd just use the network part (like first three octets if it's a /24)
[05:04] <igoryonya> is there some command line or gui utility that allows to paste a certain data inside of a file. For example. I have some big file, say 1Gb, where I need to replace one spot somewhere in the middle of it (at a specified offset in bytes) with some other file's contents. For example: somePasteUtil hugeFile.bin --pasteOffset=358989098 pasteFile.bin
[05:05] <frobisher> tyler _d: make the dvd bootable 1st in your bios.
[05:05] <edbian> bnagy, do you mean of the VPN's IP ?
[05:05] <kc8pxy> i need help fixing something that should not break. i upgraded to 10.04 from 8.04,  and at least flashplugin-nonfre is jammed in sideways. i can't get it to reinstall, -f install, or remove, i can't even autoremove..  how do i fix this?? it's not ok that upgrading jammed things sideways.
[05:05] <edbian> RudyValencia, Does it show up there?  It should if you're connected to it.
[05:05] <callowayj> did anyone see my question about different wallpapers on desktops?
[05:05] <edbian> bnagy, Brilliant btw, thank you
[05:05] <bnagy> edbian: yeah, like they will normally get assigned any ip inside a range
[05:05] <edbian> callowayj, Everyone can see it, nobody had anything to say I guess
[05:06] <edbian> bnagy, ok thanks
[05:06] <RudyValencia> edbian: I'm not just checking if I'm on the VPN.
[05:06] <callowayj> ahh ok, not sure I had a voice thank you
[05:06] <edbian> RudyValencia, ok.  I thought the problem was that you need to know if you are on a VPN and if so to mount something.  Is that not true?
[05:06] <bazhang> callowayj, using compiz? iirc compiz has that feature, you could try #compiz as well
[05:06] <edbian> RudyValencia, Are you seeing what bnagy said?
[05:07] <callowayj> ok yes, I do
[05:07] <callowayj> thansk again
[05:07] <RudyValencia> edbian: I need to mount my shares if either I'm on my local LAN or the VPN is connected.
[05:07] <zcat[1]> !info wallpaper-tray
[05:07] <zcat[1]> hmm..
[05:07] <edbian> RudyValencia, so you need to mount shares no matter what...
[05:07] <kc8pxy> where do i learn how to fix stuff that's not supposed to break in ubvuntu??  it doesn't seem to be here.
[05:07] <edbian> RudyValencia, We don't need to check anything at all.
[05:07] <RudyValencia> No, what if I'm on the road and not yet connected to the VPN?
[05:08] <newlyparted> anyone familiar with grubs
[05:08] <kc8pxy> newlyparted:  i am..  what you need?
[05:08] <jdsbluedevl> hi, can anyone tell me how to get an shared Internet connection working with Ubuntu to a Roku set-top box?  I had it working before, but an update in the past week borked it,  and now I can't set up an outgoing from my output Ethernet card.  I tried looking at the Howto Instructions, but they didn't help
[05:08] <edbian> RudyValencia, Ahh, so you need to mount your shares (i'm assuming over the internet) if and only iff you have the VPN up?
[05:08] <RudyValencia> No.
[05:08] <edbian> RudyValencia, Or, do you need to mount the shares if and only iff you have any network connection?
[05:08] <RudyValencia> I don't need the VPN when I'm at home.
[05:09] <zcat[1]> jdsbluedevl:  firestarter is probably the easiest option
[05:09] <newlyparted> i just made a new partition and put ubuntu on it.. my linux 1.5 grub i think it is.. can i edit it
[05:09] <jdsbluedevl> zcat[1]: I tried firestarter, it didn't work
[05:09] <edbian> RudyValencia, so you want the script to know if you're at home or not.
[05:09] <RudyValencia> I need to mount my shares only if 1) I'm on my LAN, or 2) connected to my VPN.
[05:09] <kc8pxy> newlyparted: .......  that doesn't totally make sense.
[05:09] <edbian> RudyValencia, If you're at home mount the share, if you're not, check if you have the VPN, if yes, mount the share
[05:09] <RudyValencia> right
[05:09] <newlyparted> i want to add a different version of ubuntu on my "linux drive" partition
[05:09] <bnagy> RudyValencia: the home one makes things a little tricky, like imagine your network at home is 192.168.1.x - lots of places you go on the road will have that same IP range, so really we need to see if your SMB server is there somehow
[05:10] <edbian> RudyValencia, alright, alright.  How to check if you're at home...
[05:10] <bazhang> newlyparted, grub2? what version of Ubuntu
[05:10] <RudyValencia> but if I'm in, say, a hotel, and I don't have a connection yet, configuring my shares in /etc/fstab will cause Ubuntu to fail booting won't it?
[05:10] <zcat[1]> bnagy:  nmap -sP to server as root, it returns the MAC address...
[05:10] <edbian> RudyValencia, it won't fail to boot, it will just take a long time
[05:11] <bnagy> zcat[1]: I dunno if that will work over the VPN though
[05:11] <zcat[1]> bnagy:  ahh, true
[05:11] <edbian> RudyValencia, Suppose we make 2 scripts, one that mounts via the VPN on road and another that mounts normally.  You choose which to run (basically you decide if you're at home or not)
[05:11] <RudyValencia> I don't want to wait a long time multiplied by the four shares I have at home.
[05:11] <newlyparted> i already installed 8.1 i belive. and works fine... now i want 10.04.... i have it in a wubi install next to windows.. im about to move it to the "linux drive" partition and add a grub for it
[05:11] <edbian> RudyValencia, Then you would run the scripts manually
[05:11] <newlyparted> is that possible?
[05:11] <RudyValencia> I have autofs installed.
[05:12] <bazhang> newlyparted, wubi? why not a regular dual boot?
[05:12] <edbian> RudyValencia, I don't know what that does
[05:12] <RudyValencia> It's supposed to mount the shares when you request a certain directory
[05:12] <newlyparted> i dont like the wubi install thing.. just want a straight up clean grub and drive..
[05:12] <zcat[1]> newlyparted:  you can't easily 'move' an install from wubi to a real parition, probably easier to do a fresh install
[05:12] <kc8pxy> RudyValencia:  i'd put them in fstab, and noauto them,  then have a script run on boot, to check if the vpn came up, and if not,  fail to mount those shares.
[05:12] <edbian> RudyValencia, eh, I don't think you really need it in this case.
[05:12] <RudyValencia> I don't know scripting
[05:13] <bazhang> newlyparted, the easiest way is fresh install Ubuntu, it will include Windows in the grub2 list
[05:13] <RudyValencia> Also, if I put them in fstab, when I shut down it takes a long time and gives me an error:
[05:13] <RudyValencia> "CIFS VFS: no response for cmd 50 mid [varying #]"
[05:13] <zcat[1]> RudyValencia:  &
[05:13] <bnagy> kc8pxy: we're all on the same page, just working on how to reliably detect the conditions where the shares should be mounted
[05:13] <RudyValencia> several times for each share
[05:13] <paddymelon> bitspyder.net
[05:13] <bazhang> paddymelon, ??
[05:14] <newlyparted> my grub has two windows entries.. only the second one works?
[05:14] <edbian> RudyValencia, My suggestion is to make 2 scripts.  One you run if you're at home and the other you run if you're on the road.  They both mount the shares but they do it in different ways.  If you'd like to try this I can help you write the script.
[05:14] <kc8pxy> RudyValencia: scripting is a vital linux skill IMO. sorta like makign fire is a wilderness survival skill..    you can make do w/o it,  but life is a lot more comfortable if you learn it :)
[05:14] <newlyparted> the first starts some gateway recovery thing?
[05:14] <zcat[1]> RudyValencia:  put '&' at the end of the line where filesystems get mounted, that'll put it in the background so you don't have to wait while it fails
[05:14] <edbian> RudyValencia, If you don't run either script than the shares simply aren't mounted
[05:14] <Zoffix> Hey all, all the icons from my desktop are gone and nothing happens when I right click on it. I remember running some gnome-*something* program to fix this... anyone has a clue on what that program might be?
[05:14] <RudyValencia> Windows can handle it easily, why can't Linux?
[05:14] <edbian> RudyValencia, You could even make launchers for them (icons in the panel or on the desktop)
[05:15] <edbian> Zoffix, nautilus&
[05:15] <edbian> Zoffix, or reboot
[05:15] <newlyparted> sooo. all my hard work in setting up ubuntu 10.04 is lost?
[05:15] <zcat[1]> newlyparted:  fairly much
[05:15] <RudyValencia> This lappy is too old for any recent Windows version so I want to continue using it on Linux
[05:15] <bnagy> RudyValencia: Windows handles it by constantly spamming every network you ever connect to with WINS traffic
[05:15] <Zoffix> edbian, I don't wanna reboot, and nautilus only starts the file manager and not the desktop.
[05:15] <edbian> RudyValencia, Linux can, in fact there are multiple ways to do it, we're just deciding which way is best / what you want.
[05:15] <kc8pxy> RudyValencia:  what do you mean, handle it?   and linux can..  you just need a lttle automation.  just like windows would.
[05:15] <newlyparted> does linux use a registry..
[05:15] <RudyValencia> I've found a method
[05:15] <edbian> Zoffix, Really?  nautilus is what draws the icons on the desktop and lets you right click.  Did it not work?
[05:16] <kc8pxy> newlyparted: not in the windows sense of the word, i don;t think so
[05:16] <edbian> RudyValencia, So you don't want help anymore?
[05:16] <RudyValencia> (autofs, via http://www.howtoforge.com/accessing_windows_or_samba_shares_using_autofs )
[05:16] <RudyValencia> no
[05:16] <jdsbluedevl> hi, can anyone tell me how to get an shared Internet connection working with Ubuntu to a Roku set-top box?  I had it working before, but an update in the past week borked it,  and now I can't set up an outgoing from my output Ethernet card.  I tried looking at the Howto Instructions, but they didn't help
[05:16] <RudyValencia> I can't figure out why that's not working
[05:16] <RudyValencia> I get an error when I try to use it per the directions there
[05:16] <edbian> Zoffix, maybe killall nautilus and then try it again?
[05:16] <zcat[1]> newlyparted:  no, configuration is mostly in /etc .. although there's gconf which is registry-like and stores all the gnome-related config
[05:16] <Zoffix> edbian, worked now! Thanks.
[05:16] <edbian> Zoffix, no problem!
[05:16] <edbian> Zoffix, glad I could help
[05:16] <Zoffix> :)
[05:17] <newlyparted> i think ill try... if it doesnt work ill just erase it and put a fresh one in...... can i add a grub entry??
[05:17] <edbian> zcat[1], newlyparted system wide configuration is in /etc.  User specific settings are in hidden folders in your home folder
[05:17] <bazhang> newlyparted, a fresh install will do it for you
[05:17]  * RudyValencia checks the daemon.log to get the exact textx
[05:17] <kc8pxy> is there anyone who knows how to rip packages viciously out of apt-get??  trying to do it nicely isn't working.
[05:17] <zcat[1]> newlyparted:  copy the filesystem over then reinstall grub from the !grub2 info
[05:18] <xpurple> I keep getting the error "resolivng host..." when I browse.  Also, any hostname lookups take forever.  Any ideas?
[05:18] <zcat[1]> newlyparted:  also you'll need to fix up the UUID entries in /etc/fstab
[05:18] <edbian> xpurple, well your dns is lousy ;)
[05:18] <xpurple> Heh
[05:18] <edbian> xpurple, what dns are you using?
[05:18] <xpurple> 199.184.119.1
[05:18] <newlyparted> what will i be looking to fix zcat
[05:18] <zer0t0xic> jdsbluedevl,  just right click on the network manager applet, and click on edit connections
[05:19] <jdsbluedevl> zer0t0xic: ok, what next?
[05:19] <RudyValencia> I keep getting "update_negative_cache: key "myserver" not found in map." when I try to access the /cifs/myserver/shared directory
[05:19] <xpurple> I also use 199.2.252.10 for a backup.
[05:19] <edbian> xpurple, it works ok for me
[05:19] <xpurple> Yeah
[05:19] <newlyparted> ill look when i get there... and probobly end up here again.. ;)
[05:19] <edbian> xpurple, 62 msec
[05:19] <xpurple> It's something local because it works when I go elsewhere.
[05:19] <zer0t0xic> jdsbluedevl,  click on the wireless tab, and edit
[05:19] <zcat[1]> newlyparted:  pastebin your fstab and the output of fdisk -l from the live CD, we'll figure out what you need to do
[05:19] <jdsbluedevl> zer0t0xic: I don't have a wireless card
[05:19] <edbian> xpurple, That other one is even better
[05:19] <bastid_raZor> xpurple: be your own dns caching machine.. dnsmasq https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Dnsmasq
[05:19] <jdsbluedevl> zer0t0xic: I have two Ethernet cards
[05:19] <RudyValencia> I give up
[05:19] <xpurple> Hmm
[05:20] <edbian> xpurple, IDK, try google's just to make sure?  It's supposed to be really fast.  8.8.8.8
[05:20] <zer0t0xic> jdsbluedevl,  and what you want to do is like bridge the connection ?
[05:20] <xpurple> Ok
[05:20] <xpurple> Switching now
[05:20] <jdsbluedevl> zer0t0xic: I guess that's what you call it when you pass the Internet through one computer for a second device, so yeah
[05:20] <xpurple> Do I have to drop the interface for the new server to take effect?  Changed /etc/resolv.conf
[05:20] <edbian> xpurple, It was terrible for me! 1526msec
[05:20] <edbian> xpurple, nope
[05:20] <newlyparted> be back in ten...
[05:21] <edbian> xpurple, comment out /etc/resolv.conf and see for yourself!
[05:21] <zer0t0xic> jdb,  okay well edit the ethernet thats connected to the internet
[05:21] <jdsbluedevl> zer0t0xic: but I can't for some reason access the second Ethernet card or set up a connection for it
[05:21] <newlyparted> need to reboot into my wubi linux... get on here and start copyin to usb
[05:21] <xpurple> Heh
[05:21] <xpurple> Resolving host still takes a while.
[05:21] <edbian> xpurple, IDK.  Very odd.
[05:21] <xpurple> Yeah
[05:21] <zer0t0xic> jdsbluedevl,  click on wired tab, and edit eth0
[05:21] <edbian> xpurple, Do you know how to use dig ?
[05:21] <xpurple> Yes
[05:22] <newlyparted> cant access the files from windows 7 so ill be back
[05:22] <bastid_raZor> xpurple: possibly disable ipv6 ?
[05:22] <newlyparted> thanks
[05:22] <jdsbluedevl> zer0t0xic: eth0 is the one plugged in to the Internet, right?
[05:22] <xpurple> My wife's lappy does it as well and she has vista.
[05:22] <zer0t0xic> jdsbluedevl, yes and windows should pops up, and click on IPv4 Settings tab
[05:22] <edbian> xpurple, So it isn't OS dependent problem?  It must be your network / ISP
[05:22] <zcat[1]> newlyparted:  boot into wubi, make a filesystem in the free space and mount it (eg /media/disk) then copy everything over as root cp -ax /* /media/disk/
[05:22] <jdsbluedevl> zer0t0xic: ok, what next?
[05:22] <xpurple> Now, my network setup.  Cable modem into an AP.  Then a two block wireless link into a repeater running dd-wrt.  Then wireless here.
[05:23] <zer0t0xic> jdsbluedevl, change the method to Shared to other computers
[05:23] <edbian> xpurple, What is a two block wireless link?
[05:23] <xpurple> edbian: I agree.
[05:23] <zcat[1]> newlyparted:  that should get you halfway there, then we just need to fix up fstab and reinstall grub2
[05:23] <xpurple> edbian: A very long wireless link.  802.11b
[05:23] <jdsbluedevl> zer0t0xic: ok, done.  What next?
[05:23] <edbian> xpurple, I see
[05:23] <zer0t0xic> jdsbluedevl, click apply
[05:23] <edbian> xpurple, yeah, I mean, it's gotta be your ISP
[05:24] <jdsbluedevl> zer0t0xic: of course, I mean after that
[05:24] <xpurple> Not my local setup?
[05:24] <bnagy> xpurple: if you ping and traceroute to the DNS servers, do the latencies look ok?
[05:24] <zer0t0xic> jdsbluedevl, and go back to the Network Manager Applet and just click connect on the second etherenet that wasnt connected to internet
[05:24] <xpurple> Yes
[05:24] <zcat[1]> 8.8.8.8 FTW!
[05:24] <edbian> xpurple, It could be but I doubt it
[05:24] <edbian> zcat[1], openDNS for the win
[05:25] <jdsbluedevl> zer0t0xic: there is no second entry except Auto Ethernet, and that's listed under Eth0 in nm-applet
[05:25] <xpurple> Thank you.
[05:25] <zcat[1]> openDNS fails ..
[05:25] <zer0t0xic> jdsbluedevl,okay, whats listed under Wired ?
[05:25] <jdsbluedevl> Auto Ethernet and Auto eth0
[05:25] <bnagy> xpurple: ok, do manual lookups with dig 'feel' normal speed?
[05:26] <xpurple> Yes
[05:26] <bnagy> xpurple: ok, does a wget work at normal speed? :)
[05:26] <xpurple> Instant.
[05:26] <jdsbluedevl> Auto Ethernet is listed under Eth0 under the nm-applet icon
[05:26] <xpurple> Yes
[05:26] <zer0t0xic> jdsbluedevl,okay can you plz do iwconfig on terminal, and pastebin the output that comes up
[05:27] <bnagy> xpurple: uh you want to try those digs with some site you haven't looked up before, to be sure
[05:27] <xpurple> Yeah
[05:27] <xpurple> Doing that.
[05:27] <jdsbluedevl> zer0t0xic: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/445427
[05:27] <edbian> xpurple, I suspect your ISP is doing something with un-established connections on port 80 ;)
[05:28] <xpurple> Hmm
[05:28] <Theo> Anybody help me get a cd-drive working?
[05:28] <xpurple> Charter
[05:28] <xpurple> Can I get them to fix that?
[05:28] <xpurple> Or will they just brush me off?
[05:28] <zer0t0xic> jdsbluedevl, which device you useing to connect to interne now, eth2, or eth0 ?
[05:28] <jdsbluedevl> zer0t0xic: eth0
[05:28] <xpurple> Also, the other issue I run into is my ssh connections die randomly.
[05:28] <callowayj> "We don't support Linux. . . "
[05:28] <zer0t0xic> jdsbluedevl, is eth2 listed under Wired on the NM applet ?
[05:29] <callowayj> that's what I get out of ATT anyway
[05:29] <xpurple> :(
[05:29] <jdsbluedevl> zer0t0xic: under nm-applet, no mention of eth2, but mention of a second card
[05:29] <xpurple> I'll call them and find out.
[05:30] <zer0t0xic> jdsbluedevl, is eth2 listed under Wired on the NM applet ?
[05:30] <xpurple> Worst tey can do is shrug me off.
[05:30] <edbian> xpurple, yep
[05:30] <jdsbluedevl> zer0t0xic: there is NO eth2 period, but there is a second card listed
[05:30] <edbian> xpurple, inspire some fear in the hearts of the internet gate-keepers!
[05:30] <callowayj> well, with ATT you get people in India if you call this late at night
[05:30] <scunizi> xpurple: set apache to port 8080 and open a free account with dyndns.com, pick a domain that can be forwarded to you
[05:30] <{g}> Hello! Anybody here who installed Flashplayer 10.1?
[05:30] <callowayj> it would be interesting to see what is in thier script to say when they hear "Linux"
[05:31] <edbian> scunizi, He's not running a web server....
[05:31] <xpurple> scunizi: Tempting, but a lot of trouble.
[05:31] <xpurple> I am, but not here.
[05:31] <xpurple> linode for the win!
[05:31] <edbian> callowayj, xpurple perhaps you want to document this for comedy's sake
[05:31] <Theo> Anybody help me get a cd-drive working?
[05:31] <scunizi> edbian: what's he running?
[05:31] <Bookman> I'm trying to run a java game from here http://domination.sourceforge.net/download.shtml and I've never tried running a .jar file before.  I'm not sure how to do that.
[05:31] <zer0t0xic> !network
[05:31] <edbian> scunizi, I think he said he is..  He just noticed slow name resolving on his web browser
[05:31] <jdsbluedevl> no
[05:32] <xpurple> On my client
[05:32] <callowayj> flash player: install the restricted extras
[05:32] <xpurple> Not server end.
[05:32] <callowayj> you'll get flash
[05:32] <scunizi> edbian: ah.
[05:32] <zcat[1]> !jre
[05:32] <Dr_Willis> Theo:  clarify the exact problem to the channel.
[05:32] <scunizi> xpurple: you might change your dns servers to the ones listed on opendns..
[05:32] <jdsbluedevl> oops
[05:32] <xpurple> scunizi: And it does it on my wife's vista lappy as well, so it's not local to my workstation.
[05:32] <xpurple> scunizi: I just switched to google and no real change.
[05:33] <scunizi> xpurple: on the router or on your machine?
[05:33] <Bobrobyn> Does anyone know if there's a way to view all the files opened in the last like, 2 hours?  (Is there a file history?)
[05:33] <xpurple> machine
[05:33] <edbian> scunizi, tried that
[05:33] <xpurple> let me try lookups on the router
[05:33] <xpurple> from the router
[05:33] <zcat[1]> Bobrobyn:  places > recent documents
[05:33] <scunizi> edbian: great minds think alike
[05:33] <zcat[1]> Bobrobyn:  also it's in .recently-used.xbel
[05:33] <xpurple> Hmm, instant lookups.
[05:34] <edbian> scunizi, Apparently so do mediocre minds
[05:34] <bnagy> xpurple: if a standard wget works then I think it's probably 'wacky browser stuff' like maybe you're being transparently proxied or something
[05:34] <inktri> how can i stop disable wireless under networkmanager with the command line?
[05:34] <xpurple> I do have NAT running.
[05:34] <inktri> how can i disable wireless under NetworkManager with the command line?
[05:34] <xpurple> And then I have the other AP running my repeater in DMZ mode.
[05:34] <xpurple> To avoid double NAT.
[05:35] <Theo> Dr_Willis: I'm trying to write an iso to a CD, but my CD-drive isn't showing up in nautilus. I could appreciate help on a) finding out how I can tell whether or not the drive is even being detected and b) how to mount the drive from there if it is being detected.
[05:35] <bnagy> none of that should matter at this level
[05:35] <bnagy> (and double NAT is fine)
[05:35] <jdsbluedevl> zer0t0xic: find anything yet?
[05:35] <xpurple> It causes some issues.
[05:35] <xpurple> But not like this.
[05:35]  * uBen is cool
[05:35] <Dr_Willis> Theo:  You dont mount a cd thats empty/not containing a disk with no data on it.  Fire up the cd burning software you like and burn that data to the disk.
[05:35] <callowayj> look in /media and see if it shows up there
[05:36] <Dr_Willis> Theo:  pop in a data disk.. and see if it shows up.
[05:37] <edbian> Theo, lshw -class disk
[05:37] <Theo> Alright, hang on
[05:38] <xpurple> On the phone with a tech now.
[05:38] <callowayj> pruple: what kind of accent does he have?
[05:38] <inktri> how can i kill all processes with a specific name... ps -e | grep airmon-ng ... and then what?
[05:38] <xpurple> English.
[05:38] <xpurple> American
[05:38] <callowayj> I'm impressed
[05:38] <xpurple> He's local, as in a few states away.
[05:38] <xpurple> I have charter buisness.
[05:39] <callowayj> double impressed
[05:39] <edbian> inktri, well you could kill arimon-ng's pid  or you can killall arimon-ng
[05:39] <xpurple> I do webhosting.
[05:39] <igoryonya> is there some command line or gui utility that allows to paste a certain data inside of a file. For example. I have some big file, say 1Gb, where I need to replace one spot somewhere in the middle of it (at a specified offset in bytes) with some other file's contents. For example: somePasteUtil hugeFile.bin --pasteOffset=358989098 pasteFile.bin
[05:39] <Bookman> I have openjdk installed and it will not open the .jar file.
[05:39] <linux> MacBook Running Ubuntu (Linux) i looked at this on youtube i think thats so cool running linux on apple
[05:40] <edbian> linux, Isn't linux great?
[05:40] <Theo> Dr_Willis: Nothing shows up. Again, I'm not trying to get the CD itself to be mounted. I'm pretty sure the drive isn't being detected at all
[05:40] <jdsbluedevl> zer0t0xic: are you there?
[05:40] <xpurple> edbian: For years I ran linux on sun hardware.
[05:40] <linux> it's getting there
[05:40] <edbian> Theo, sudo lshw -class disk
[05:40] <xpurple> Much nicer than SunOS
[05:40] <edbian> Theo, That shows if the system even sees it
[05:40] <callowayj> linux: i am too!
[05:40] <Theo> edbian: Ok, hold on
[05:40] <Bookman> Maybe .jar files and not for Linux, just Windows?
[05:40] <edbian> xpurple, Oh yeah?  I've never tried SunOS
[05:40] <xpurple> It's fine, just diffrent.
[05:41] <edbian> Bookman, No no, you def can run .jar files on linux
[05:41] <edbian> Bookman, The point of java is that it is platform independent.  Hence the whole stupid java virutal machine
[05:41] <xpurple> NetBSD works better on the older suns though.
[05:41] <edbian> Bookman, or JRE (jave runtime envo)
[05:41] <Bookman> edbian, I have openjdk
[05:41] <Theo> edbian: http://pastebin.com/zWspyirE
[05:42] <edbian> Bookman, That's the java develpment kit which should have the jre
[05:42] <edbian> Bookman, I'm not sure how to fix it.  I just wanted to let you know it's def. possibly
[05:42] <edbian> Theo, I see it, don't you?
[05:42] <linux> wouldn't it make apple mad over their liscensing agreement
[05:42] <cow_jmblo> aii
[05:42] <Bookman> edbian, ok, if anyone knows how, it would be great to learn.
[05:42] <scunizi> edbian: yea.. java *should* be platform independant but it depends on how it's implimented.. there are some work sites I have that are java based that choke when I'm on linux.. I think they browser/OS check and if it's not win or mac it errors out.. :(
[05:42] <edbian> Theo, Thank you for pastebining though :)
[05:43] <edbian> scunizi, ha ha.  I hope they don't!
[05:43] <Theo> edbian: Yes, what needs to be done from here? Because when I try to write to a cd, it doesn't detect a CD to write to
[05:43] <linux> i want an apple to run ubuntu but i don't have an apple yet
[05:43] <xpurple> dnsmasq may be a quick fix.
[05:44] <edbian> Theo, I had a drive once that wouldn't recognize blank cd's  It was extremely annoying.  Can you confirm that it can read a normal CD?  Just an audio cd or anything?
[05:44] <scunizi> edbian: they must.. they actually make mac users connect via citrix .. TO A JAVA APP.. weird
[05:44] <edbian> scunizi, Odd
[05:44] <Theo> edbian: When I had XP installed, it was capable of recognizing blanks, if that's any help
[05:44] <callowayj> edbian: not all apps are written to be cross plaform; at work we have some app hosted by ibm for doing expense reports; it only works in IE; we use Citrix for it
[05:45] <Theo> edbian: But lemme check here real quick anyway
[05:45] <edbian> Theo, It was the linux driver that didn't recognize blanks.  Sorry I was unclear
[05:45] <jdsbluedevl> zer0t0xic: are you still here?
[05:45] <edbian> callowayj, java apps?
[05:45] <Bookman> Ok, so for .jar files to work with Linux, they should be written specifically for Linux?
[05:45] <xpurple> I got brushed off.
[05:45] <callowayj> edbian: yes; a web applet;
[05:45] <edbian> Why OH WHY would anybody purposefully make a java app platform dependent!?!?
[05:46] <xpurple> But he did test the "modem" to make sure it was fine.
[05:46] <xpurple> edbian: It happens all the time.
[05:46]  * xpurple installs dnsmasq
[05:46] <igoryonya> is there some command line or gui utility that allows to paste a certain data inside of a file. For example. I have some big file, say 1Gb, where I need to replace one spot somewhere in the middle of it (at a specified offset in bytes) with some other file's contents. For example: somePasteUtil hugeFile.bin --pasteOffset=358989098 pasteFile.bin
[05:47] <bastid_raZor> xpurple: i have also disabled ipv6 and saw increased speeds
[05:47] <edbian> Bookman, no.  They should be written platform ind.  What the people are brining up here is people that have written their app in a nasty way.  It actually checks the host OS and performs poorly if on a certain OS
[05:47] <Dr_Willis> igoryonya:  some creative use of head/tail and output redirection can proberly do it.
[05:47] <igoryonya> Dr_Willis: thanx
[05:47] <edbian> Bookman, That is not the intention of Java or, dare I say, most java developers
[05:48] <Theo> edbian: I put in a cd with music and a cd with pictures and whatnot in and it isn't pulling up either
[05:48] <toolbear>  hi.  how to determine the dependencies of a *.deb archive?
[05:48] <edbian> Theo, Even if you double click?  Nothing happens?
[05:48] <Bookman> edbian, So I'm assuming that ubuntu just does not have the correct drivers to run this one particular program.
[05:48] <Theo> edbian: double-click what? It doesn't even show up
[05:49] <edbian> Bookman, drivers run hardware.  In linux they're called kernel modules
[05:49] <scunizi> edbian: Bookman perhaps they check the OS and disable all but win platforms... then "sell" the citrix service to the business to allow their mac users access.
[05:49] <edbian> Theo, In Places -> computer you should see your disk drive.  Double click that with a CD in the drive should mount it.
[05:49] <xpurple> Setting up dnsmasq, stupid question.  I use DHCP here.  How do I get it to use 127.0.0.1 by default?  If I edit /etc/resolv.conf it will eventually be reset back.
[05:49] <Theo> edbian: This is what I've been saying from the beginning. The drive doesn't show up
[05:50] <desiderius> I am new to the lunix thing wat is a ubanto?
[05:50] <bazhang> !ubuntu | desiderius
[05:50] <edbian> xpurple,  cat /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf
[05:50] <scunizi> xpurple: don't use network manager
[05:50] <edbian> Theo, Mmm, that is odd...  Do you have an entry for it in /etc/fstab?
[05:50] <edbian> xpurple, minus the cat of course ;)
[05:51] <xpurple> Hmm
[05:51] <edbian> xpurple, Near the top of the file: prepend domain-name-servers
[05:51] <xpurple> Ahh!
[05:51] <kostasuse> toolbear, apt-cache show package
[05:51] <edbian> xpurple, Got it?
[05:51] <xpurple> Ok, didn't know that it would do that.
[05:51] <xpurple> Yes
[05:51] <desiderius> Y'all should use Plan 9 Unix. Its well better than this linux thing :P
[05:51] <CountDuckula> lol
[05:51] <bazhang> desiderius, please discuss in #ubuntu-offtopic
[05:51] <bastid_raZor> xpurple: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Dnsmasq
[05:51] <toolbear> kostasuse: thanks, but that doesn't work for packages that are not installed or in your repository list
[05:51] <xpurple> bastid_raZor: Thanks
[05:51] <jdsbluedevl> hi, can anyone tell me how to get an shared Internet connection working with Ubuntu to a Roku set-top box?  I had it working before, but an update in the past week borked it,  and now I can't set up an outgoing from my output Ethernet card.  I tried looking at the Howto Instructions, but they didn't help
[05:52] <Random832> plan 9 isn't unix
[05:52] <n8ofsp8ds> heys im thinking of using ubuntu 10.04 first time using linux easy to use ?
[05:52] <Theo> edbian: http://pastebin.com/jQxmj1TT That is what's in the fstab document. If you're asking for a folder, I don't even have one
[05:52] <kostasuse> toolbear, I see what you mean
[05:52] <xpurple> Seems bettter for the moment.
[05:52] <Bookman> Ok, all I wanted was a simple, good version of the game Risk for Ubuntu.....
[05:52] <xpurple> Thank you all for your help;.
[05:52] <edbian> Theo, no no, I didn't end in a / so I'm talking about a file  /etc/fstab/  woudl be a folder (it doesn't exist)
[05:53] <edbian> Theo, Well I think we have found our problem!  You're missing the entry for your CD drive.
[05:53] <Theo> edbian: Alright! At least now I know the problem
[05:53] <anna> hello
[05:53] <kb3gtn> Question: when you apt-get install a package it shows a list of packages it will install. I noticed that some of the packages have a {a} on the end.  What does the {a} mean?
[05:53] <bastid_raZor> xpurple: 2nd page hits will be faster.
[05:53] <Dr_Willis> edbian:  i dont see a entry for my optical drive in my fstab and it works...
[05:53] <xpurple> bastid_raZor: Yeah
[05:54] <xpurple> bastid_raZor: I will still have the same problem, but only once.
[05:54] <hufx> OMG so full of NooBs
[05:54] <xpurple> bastid_raZor: Do you know if the cache will survive reboots?
[05:54] <edbian> Dr_Willis, Really?  I'm on Debian (which is older) so I have one.  Do I not need one?
[05:54] <bastid_raZor> xpurple: correct. and no, my cache does not survive
[05:54] <pres> hola buen dia
[05:54] <xpurple> Ahh, poo.
[05:54] <Dr_Willis> edbian:  i think one has not been needed for ages with gnomes automounting features.. of course a fstab entry is not needed for a cd buring software. It would look at the /dev/XXX entries
[05:54] <Dr_Willis> edbian:  perhaos /dev/sr0 is wrong, or  /dev/cdrom
[05:54] <pres> aaaa
[05:55] <pres> alguien me lee?
[05:55] <bullgard_> '~$ route' returns an empty Kernel IP routing table. Also after a computer restart. Yesterday this computer had a normal LAN and Internet access. How to troubleshoot?

[05:56] <mneptok> pres: yes
[05:56] <pres> como entro en un canal en español, soy nuevo
[05:56] <edbian> Dr_Willis, What would it matter what /dev/XXX it was called?  How could you even tell?  with these new combo drives it's likely he'll have a /dev/dvd /dev/cdrom /dev/cdrw  etc etc all pointing to the same device
[05:56] <mneptok> !es | pres

[05:57] <Theo> edbian: All the folders you and Dr_Willis just named I don't have
[05:57] <Bookman> mneptok, Thanks!  Trying it now.
[05:57] <bullgard_> wildbat: Your telephony program should provide that.

[05:58] <jdsbluedevl> hi, can anyone tell me how to get an shared Internet connection working with Ubuntu to a Roku set-top box?  I had it working before, but an update in the past week borked it,  and now I can't set up an outgoing from my output Ethernet card.  I tried looking at the Howto Instructions, but they didn't help
[05:59] <edbian> Theo, ha ha.  You don't have a /dev/cdrom  file?
[05:59] <chalcedony> thanks xpurple bnagy -- looking
[05:59] <bullgard_> owen1: System > Preferences > Keyboard > Layouts
[05:59] <santosh> Connect to ethernet, open hardware drivers & activate STA/BC4 drivers, u will get internet
[06:00] <chalcedony> how do i get out of ssh?
[06:00] <edbian> chalcedony, exit
[06:00] <Dr_Willis> Theo:  is there a /dev/sr0  ?
[06:00] <bnagy> type exit, or hit enter twice followed by ~.
[06:00] <Theo> edbian: no...oh wait! Yes!...I thought you were talking about a folder. I didn't see the forward slash, or lack thereof
[06:00] <bullgard_> chalcedony: type exit
[06:00] <edbian> Theo, :)
[06:00] <chalcedony> ahh ty
[06:00] <edbian> Theo, you can see what they point to using ls -l
[06:00] <edbian> chalcedony, no prob
[06:00] <Theo> Yes, I see both
[06:01] <Dr_Willis> Theo:  the /dev/cdrom and other /dev/XXX things mentioned should be pointing to /dev/sr0 (at least they are here)
[06:01] <Dr_Willis>  ls -l /dev/cdrom
[06:01] <Dr_Willis> lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 2010-06-06 00:11 /dev/cdrom -> sr0
[06:01] <Theo> Dr_Willis: I'm unable to open either, is that normal?
[06:01] <bnagy> bullgard_: you still have your network problem?
[06:01] <Dr_Willis> Theo:  Open? Just look st the listing...
[06:02] <bullgard_> bnagy: Yes.
[06:02] <Dr_Willis> You dont 'open' /dev/XXX stuff with the file manager. :)
[06:02] <bnagy> bullgard_: is there an interface up?
[06:02] <spezticle> could somebody recomend something to install for ubuntu-server to control cooling fan speeds?

[06:03] <bullgard_> bnagy '~$ ifconfig' lists the interfaces eth0, lo and wlan0.

[06:03] <bullgard_> bnagy: eth0
[06:04] <bastid_raZor> xpurple: unbound is in the repository.. very interesting

[06:05] <Dr_Willis> Theo:  /dev/sr0 does or does not exist?
[06:06] <bazhang> owen1, handbrake iirc
[06:06] <ZachK_> owen1: for what exactly? Just general video editing?
[06:06] <ZachK_> welcome militant

[06:06] <banker247> anyone here familiar with wine?
[06:06] <ZachK_> banker247: a little

[06:06] <jdsbluedevl> hi, can anyone tell me how to get an shared Internet connection working with Ubuntu to a Roku set-top box?  I had it working before, but an update in the past week borked it,  and now I can't set up an outgoing from my output Ethernet card.  I tried looking at the Howto Instructions, but they didn't help
[06:06] <mawst> owen1, I highly suggest you try kdenlive.
[06:06] <banker247> zachK is performance inherently going to be crappy?
[06:06] <militant> hiya.  curious, anyone know if the latest release has packet injection enabled on intel 4965b/g and 4965b/g/n cards?
[06:06] <militant> hi ZachK_
[06:07] <Dr_Willis> banker247:  with wine - it depends on the game.
[06:07] <bnagy> bullgard_: sudo mii-tool and see if the interface has link?
[06:07] <bullgard_> MTecknology: 'Stop talking nonsense.
[06:07] <mawst> owen1, Text & Transitions = kdenlive, everything else out there falls short. If you need to cut paste etc or edit clips use avidemux first.
[06:07] <banker247> dr_willis i'm trying to play mount n blade.. i can play it but it is VERY choppy compared to when i used to run it in windows..
[06:07] <ZachK_> banker247: what are you using Wine for? A game or a app
[06:07] <owen1> ZachK_: add a few videos together + images + audio + some text and transitions (similar to movie maker)
[06:07] <Theo> Dr_Willis: I wouldn't mind if you waved a magic wand. It's the thought that counts, hahaha. Also, yes, the file "sr0" does exist
[06:07] <Dr_Willis> banker247:  and you have checked the wine app databae for potential tweaks/tips?
[06:08] <banker247> i'm thinking its because i dont have correct settings as my hardware is more than capable of running it
[06:08] <bastid_raZor> xpurple: http://library.linode.com/networking/dns-guides/unbound-dns-resolver-ubuntu-10.04-lucid
[06:08] <ZachK_> banker247: ok well you gotta remember that you are using a Windows Emulater of sorts....it's not Windows by any means
[06:08] <owen1> mawst: thanks
[06:08] <mawst> np
[06:08] <owen1> bazhang: i'll look at handbrake and kdenlife
[06:08] <owen1> live
[06:08] <banker247> it just seems like my graphics card isn't pushing like it used to hehe.. do you have to install seperate directx libraries with wine?
[06:08] <airtonix> ZachK_, translation layer, not emulator
[06:08] <bullgard_> bnagy:  The green LED next to the ethernet outlet lights green.
[06:08] <Dr_Willis> Theo:  so you could put in a 'data' disk (not a blank one) and see if you can mount the to some location via a command similer to 'sudo mount /dev/sr0  /media/cdrom'
[06:09] <airtonix> ZachK_, its no more an emulator than win7 is a winxp emulator
[06:09] <bnagy> bullgard_: yeah but can you sudo mii-tool for me anyway?
[06:09] <ZachK_> airtonix: that's what i meant..i knew that! lol
[06:09] <Dr_Willis> Theo:  assumning /media/cdrom allready exists
[06:09] <goomba5454> Hey everyone.  Quick question.  I downloaded a theme from the Ubuntu software center but I cant find it.  Where would it have saved too?
[06:09] <Dr_Willis> goomba5454:  If you installed a package using the package manager. it installed system widwe where its supposed to go,.
[06:09] <airtonix> goomba5454, themes installed by root are in /usr/share/themes
[06:10] <airtonix> goomba5454, if you want to install themes with out root access, put the files in ~/.themes
[06:10] <Dr_Willis> goomba5454:  if its not showing up in the appearance/themes - check the customuize button - it may be its actually a theme 'part' not a complete theme
[06:10] <Theo> Dr_Willis: /media/cdrom does not exist
[06:10] <bullgard_> bnagy:  '~$ sudo mii-tool; eth0: negotiated 100baseTx-FD flow-control, link up.'
[06:10] <chalcedony> scp still isn't working, http://chalcedony.pastebin.com/bdus2DNj
[06:11] <Dr_Willis> Theo:  then make the dir.
[06:11] <Dr_Willis> Theo:  sudo mkdir /media/cdrom   then try the mount command i gave
[06:11] <bnagy> bullgard_: ok cool. Do you have any arp entries? it's just 'arp' to check
[06:11] <goomba5454> I'm sorry.  I'm a total newbie and not sure what you're talking about.
[06:11] <bullgard_> bnagy: '~$ arp' does not produce any output.
[06:12] <owen1> mawst: so cut video with avidemux, and edit with audio etc with kdenlive
[06:12] <bnagy> chalcedony: you're trying to copy a directory, either use scp -R or Photos/folder/*
[06:12] <Dr_Willis> !manual | goomba5454
[06:12] <mawst> owen1, right
[06:13] <bnagy> bullgard_: ok, looking like some kind of physical issue... what's the physical network like?
[06:13] <Theo> Dr_Willis: It's shown up!
[06:13] <owen1> mawst: can't i cut it with kdenlive?
[06:13] <Dr_Willis> Theo:  it showed up after you mounted it by hand?
[06:13] <newlyparted> yeah... my wubi install says the file is 8.5 gig or so.. but copys as 16.6... and i dont have permission for lots of files... its hopeless...

[06:14] <newlyparted> thanks for the help...
[06:14] <newlyparted> fresh install it is
[06:14] <bnagy> bullgard_: and this is dhcp?
[06:14] <bullgard_> bnagy: Yes.
[06:15] <Theo> Dr_Willis: Yes. In Nautilus it now has "cdrom" in it, as well as at PLACES>COMPUTER
[06:15] <bnagy> bullgard_: hrm I have had weird issues sometimes with routers ignoring dhcp clients when leases expire etc, can you renew your lease? restarting networking should do it I think
[06:15] <amanita> Hi, im trying to install ubuntu with a original cd (shiped by canonical) of 9.10 version, and when i select the option "install ubuntu" the system restarts. The motherboard is a Asrock running a AMD processor. Somebody knows what could be?
[06:17] <amanita> Alexc i think it is. Its just download the PPC version at ubuntu website.
[06:17] <bullgard_> bnagy: How to rea
[06:18] <bullgard_> bnagy: How to restart networking?
[06:18] <bnagy> bullgard_: sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart
[06:18] <Dr_Willis> Theo:  well that shows its gnomes 'auto mounting' feature thats having some issues  then. BUt even then.. the cd BURNER software should iof seen the device
[06:18] <bnagy> bullgard_: of just sudo dhclient should also work I think
[06:18] <alexc> i found it in the wiki
[06:18] <Theo> Dr_Willis: Ok, well now I've taken the data disk out, do I apply this same thing to a blank?
[06:19] <jdsbluedevl> hi, can anyone tell me how to get an shared Internet connection working with Ubuntu to a Roku set-top box?

[06:19] <Dr_Willis> Theo:  you did right click on the cd icon and eject/unmounted?
[06:19] <owen1> how to change to dvorak from the termainal?
[06:19] <Dr_Willis> Theo:  you DONT mount a blank disk.  That isent logical. :)  the cd burner app burns to the device.
[06:19] <amanita> anyone? x.x
[06:20] <MTecknology> !anyone | amanita
[06:20] <amanita> lol
[06:20] <amanita> i already did my question
[06:20] <Theo> Dr_Willis: I did hit the cd icon and eject, but alright alright! I get it with the blank :|
[06:20] <bullgard_> bnagy: '~$ sudo dhclient brought back 2 lines of my Kernel IP Routing Table. I am still missing the Avahi line.
[06:20] <amanita> "Hi, im trying to install ubuntu with a original cd (shiped by canonical) of 9.10 version, and when i select the option "install ubuntu" the system restarts. The motherboard is a Asrock running a AMD processor. Somebody knows what could be?"
[06:21] <amanita> ¬¬'
[06:21] <bnagy> bullgard_: I don't know what you mean by the Avahi line... can you ping your gateway ip now?
[06:21] <MTecknology> amanita: any chance you tried 10.04 as well?
[06:21] <dmglouis> How do I make the default suspend operation on my computer use s2ram, instead of the usual one (which does not work for me)?
[06:22] <amanita> MTecknology infortunely i dont have the cd for burn, but i also tried with 9.04. It could be some problem with the Amd interface?
[06:22] <cryptide> is there a way to 'group' a set of windows together?
[06:22] <MTecknology> amanita: it could be.. if it breaks with 10.04 too I'd say hardware broken or you should file a bug report
[06:22] <bullgard_> bnagy: '~$ ping 192.168.178.1' gives a normal response now.
[06:23] <bnagy> bullgard_: ok, but you don't have a default gateway yet?
[06:23] <thune3> amanita: the 9.10 live-cd can boot ok?
[06:23] <Dr_Willis> cryptide:  Compiz has a tab/grouping feature. but i never was ablwe to figure it out
[06:23] <Jordan_U> cryptide: Yes, with the group window plugin for compiz
[06:23] <Jordan_U> !ccsm | cryptide
[06:23] <amanita> thune3 no, it just restarts too.
[06:23] <bnagy> bullgard_: sudo route add default gw 192.168.178.1 will get you running for now...
[06:23] <cryptide> kthnx... i already have that i'll let ya know
[06:24] <amanita> Mtecknology Ya, im thinking its a bug. The windows was succesfully installed...
[06:24] <shafi> join ##java
[06:24] <bnagy> bullgard_: hm hey you don't have a wrong gateway, do you? can you pastbin the output of netstat -nr or just tell me if there are two routes to 0.0.0.0?
[06:25] <bullgard_> bnagy: I do have a default gateway. I do have access to my gateway now. --  The only trouble is that I do not have got back Avahi access.
[06:25] <airtonix> amanita, did you try using nopaic nolapic boot options ?
[06:25] <bnagy> bullgard_: ok I don't know what an 'Avahi' is
[06:25] <amanita> airtonix yeap
[06:25] <bullgard_> bnagy afk 5 mins
[06:26] <jdsbluedevl> ok, I can see my question isn't going to be answered tonight.  I guess I'll have to try again tomorrow.  Also, if anyone cares, I set up a thread on Ubuntu Forums at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1502774
[06:27] <Sir_Brizz> has anyone ever seen in 9.10 where the wireless in network manager shows a bunch of garbage for the SSID?
[06:28] <cryptide> Dr_Willis, Jordan_U: does grouping save state after say a reboot?
[06:29] <thune3> amanita: this sounds like your issue, 10.04 may work just fine. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/367699
[06:29] <piyushmishra> I need help my ubuntu has gone mad
[06:29] <bullgard_> bnagy: Avahi is a system which facilitates service discovery on a local network. This means that you can plug your laptop or computer into a network and instantly be able to view other people who you can chat with, find printers to print to or find files being shared. This kind of technology is already found in Apple MacOS X (branded 'Rendezvous', 'Bonjour' and sometimes 'Zeroconf') and is...
[06:29] <bullgard_> ...very convenient. Avahi is mainly based on Lennart Poettering's flexmdns mDNS implementation for Linux which has been discontinued in favour of Avahi.
[06:30] <wildbat> is there something for echo cancelling for the internal mic in device level may be so every programs can have the feature ? ~ i got big echo while doing voice chatting now.
[06:30] <chalcedony> bnagy, i got it! thanks so much :)
[06:30] <amanita> thune3 cheking
[06:30] <amanita> checking*
[06:30] <Jordan_U> cryptide: I think you can setup filters that windows matching certain criteria are always grouped. But just grouping windows by selecting them only lasts as long as the windows are open.
[06:30] <thune3> amanita: of course if that was your problem, 9.10 should have worked so....
[06:30] <cryptide> Jordan_U, ah ok. man this tab feature & animation is dope
[06:30] <Theo> Dr_Willis: So, the default program is having trouble detecting the blank. Do you have another program to recommend I could try? Now that I've narrowed down the problem...
[06:31] <amanita> thune3 yes, i also think this way.

[06:32] <bazhang> piyushmishra, pre-release? from where
[06:32] <thune3> amanita: if you have integrated graphics and a graphics card, you could test the workaround to see if that is indeed the problem.
[06:32] <dmglouis> Does anyone know how to run a custom script upon closing of a laptop lid? I tried changing /etc/acpi/lid.sh, but that had no effect. The reason I'm doing this is because while the regular suspend does not work for me (I get a blank screen when resuming), but using s2ram from uswsusp (userspace software suspend) does. Right now, I added s2ram to the sudoers file, so that if I run my own script, my laptop suspends fine. However, I wa
[06:32] <bnagy> bullgard_: um... ok I know nothing about it. If you have arp and ip acess to the hosts involved then that's about where I stop being useful sry
[06:32] <dmglouis> nt it to be automatically called when I close the lid.
[06:32] <piyushmishra> bazhang: the update manager, it has some settings options
[06:32] <tyler_d> so I have a 3ware hw bios, and it comes up as sda1 on install, I don't want my O/S on there, so I choose my single disk which is sdb1 however after it has "completed" the system will not boot, any suggestions?
[06:33] <piyushmishra> bazhang: with that I had updated the latest linux headers and gnome-keyring n some other files too perhaps
[06:33] <bazhang> piyushmishra, you mean the development version? unsupported? backports? please be specific with the exact issue at hand
[06:33] <amanita> thune3 this just occured to me, im using the onboard. Ill try with a graphic card.
[06:33] <bullgard_> bnagy: '~$ netstat -nr' is equivalent to '~$ route' with me. It outputs now all 3 lines as always in the past. Somehow the computer has now found the Avahi route also by itself.
[06:33] <piyushmishra> bazhang : lucid-proposed
[06:34] <bnagy> bullgard_: netstat -nr works on more OSes, which is why I do it that way. You can use either on ubuntu afaik
[06:34] <thune3> amanita: the workaround was just the opposite, removing the pci-e card got it to work for those guys
[06:34] <alexbobp> I'm getting abysmal download rates with apt, how do I find a mirror that doesn't suck?
[06:34] <Jordan_U> tyler_d: Ubuntu's installer has a bug that it always installs grub to the first drive, unless you choose otherwise in the "advanced" option

[06:35] <amanita> thune3 its a AGP slot
[06:35] <alexbobp> multi-line texts like that factoid?  XD
[06:35] <bnagy> bullgard_: so we win? Happiness?
[06:35] <amanita> thune3 the motherboard is just for test, i apreciated the problem, its interesting. Cant imagine why this is happening.
[06:35] <ripdisk> I'm already running ubuntu but i am trying to install windows on another harddrive, how do i add it to the boot list
[06:35] <tyler_d> Jordan_U: I'm ok with it installing grub on there, it just won't boot after it says its done :s
[06:36] <piyushmishra> bazhang: no error messages only it hangs a lot and gives READ ERROR on boot sometimes and also GIT doesnt wait for me to edit the commit msg before posting out the Aborting commit due to empty commit message. anymore
[06:36] <bullgard_> bnagy: I see. Thank you for explaining. --  Everything works now normally here again. --  I only wonder why the computer did not do 'sudo mii-tool' by itself when I restarted the computer.
[06:36] <alexbobp> ripdisk: the code for it in grub will be "rootnoverify (hd#,#)", with the partition windows is installed to, then "chainloader +1"
[06:36] <tyler_d> Jordan_U: and the raid controller card is not the first or "primary" drive
[06:36] <Jordan_U> tyler_d: Which drive is first in the boot order? Whappens when you try to boot?
[06:36] <alexbobp> ripdisk: edit menu.lst to find the grub things, if you're not using grub 2
[06:36] <bnagy> bullgard_: I think it was likely the dhcp refresh that fixed it. Anyway, \o/
[06:36] <alexbobp> I dunno how to use grub 2
[06:37] <tyler_d> Jordan_U: I think I may have just won.... I enabled the 3ware h/w bios, then changed the boot order from within the bios
[06:37] <bullgard_> bnagy: Ah! Thank you very much for your help.
[06:37] <tyler_d> and we have ignition.... so far
[06:37] <ripdisk> but i am using grub2
[06:37] <Jordan_U> ripdisk: "sudo update-grub" will add a windows entry automagically.
[06:37] <ripdisk> well, i can't even get windows installed
[06:37] <ripdisk> because it loads the setup files and then reboots
[06:37] <ripdisk> and i can't boot from the hdd
[06:37] <alexbobp> ripdisk: well at that point it's pretty much installed
[06:38] <alexbobp> ripdisk: it just does some setup after boot, so update-grub should work
[06:38] <ripdisk> ok
[06:38] <ripdisk> let me try
[06:38] <Jordan_U> ripdisk: ##windows for problems installing windows
[06:38] <alexbobp> Jordan_U: lol, his problem was with grub, not the windows instlaler
[06:38] <tyler_d> Jordan_U: that is frustrating though... should be able to pick your own boot order...
[06:39] <ripdisk> oh ok
[06:39] <ripdisk> it found it
[06:39] <ripdisk> i see that it did
[06:39] <ripdisk> now will it give me an option on boot?
[06:39] <alexbobp> ripdisk: it should
[06:39] <alexbobp> ripdisk: it might say "press esc in the next 3 seconds for menu"
[06:39] <ripdisk> ok well if it doesn't work i'll be back
[06:39] <alexbobp> see ya

I am using Ndiswrapper but the performance is not satisfactory. After going in forums I found out that it works out of box in Hardy. I tried with ubuntu intrepid(kernel 2.6.8 i suppose). Ah! It worked out of box. how can I use it with native drivers in lucid?

[06:40] <Jordan_U> alexbobp: 22:38 < ripdisk> well, i can't even get windows installed
[06:40] <alexbobp> Jordan_U: 00:37:48 < ripdisk> because it loads the setup files and then reboots
[06:40] <alexbobp> Jordan_U: it was a bootloader issue, I assure you
[06:41] <rabidweezle> I know that if I can recompile the kernel manually I can get a working framebuffer (I did in gentoo), but is it needed for ubuntu?

[06:42] <rabidweezle> Jordan_U,  Nvidia 8200M G laptop
[06:43] <bnagy> so, I added a bridge interface to one of my servers, and slaved an e1000e interface, but it won't stabilize on boot, keep flapping (physical nic reported as up and down all the time in messages, syslog and kern - anyone got any ideas?
[06:43] <Jordan_U> rabidweezle: Well, easiest way to get a full resolution framebuffer is to uninstall the proprietary drivers then. But I assume you want to keep 3D acceleration :)
[06:43] <rabidweezle> Jordan_U, I had a working terminal until I set the console to 1024x768 in the ubuntu control center app (UCC)
[06:44] <newlyparted> i need to know if there is a way to remove a grub entry for windows 7 is there a room to join to ask or would someone here know?

[06:48] <gimpexe> banker247 yes

[06:48] <bnagy> alexbobp: hey, that's modern stuff! You can even get tilesets and stuff for it now... well so I hear, I just play in terminal
[06:48] <banker247> gimpexe i've tried playin ga few games in wine but the perfomance is VERY choppy. i dunno why in my vista it runs blazing fast
[06:48] <banker247> gimpexe i think i'm doin gsomething wrong
[06:48] <rabidweezle> Jordan_U, you know how I can "default" the framebuffer mode back to the old?
[06:48] <Jordan_U> rabidweezle: Can you pastebin your /etc/default/grub and your /boot/grub/grub.cfg to try to figure out what it did?
[06:48] <alexbobp> bnagy: every time I play it with a tileset I end up kicking fountains
[06:48] <alexbobp> bnagy: it's bad juju
[06:48] <bnagy> I think I just have to accept that nobody knows about bridge interfaces :(
[06:49] <rabidweezle> Jordan_U, sure one moment
[06:49] <gimpexe> banker247 running warcraft 3 in opengl mode should help you out a lot
[06:49] <gimpexe> banker247 try adding -opengl to then end of your warcraft 3 shortcut
[06:49] <bnagy> at least I got some karma helping some people while I waited I guess :/
[06:50] <banker247> tell gimpexe have you heard of mount  n blade?
[06:50] <rabidweezle> rabidweezle@RedQueen:~$ pastebinit /etc/default/grub
[06:50] <rabidweezle> http://pastebin.com/i4MAQRW0
[06:50] <psiforce_> is there anyway to set the block size of a tmpfs partition? I am using it to store lots of very small files and they all seem to take 4k
[06:50] <gimpexe> banker247 yes, i used to play it lots. ive heard latest version has multiplayer
[06:51] <banker247> tell gimpexe can you get it to run in in ubuntu? thats pretty much the only game i play right now not much gamin lately but i'd love to be able to run it.. it runs flawless in vista
[06:51] <rabidweezle> http://pastebin.com/7wzpXej7
[06:51] <Jordan_U> rabidweezle: Remove the "vga=791" from line 10
[06:51] <rabidweezle> k
[06:51] <banker247> tell gimpexe i run it.. and it works and all but its VERY sluggish
[06:52] <rabidweezle> Jordan_U, should I just remove the entire line?
[06:53] <krdyt> while updating from 9,10 to the new version grub-pc errored, should i go on or any tips to fix grub?
[06:53] <Jordan_U> rabidweezle: You can, but the line is there by default, (to make it easy to see how to add kernel parameters)
[06:54] <rabidweezle> good idea
[06:54] <rabidweezle> GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=""
[06:54] <rabidweezle> then just sudo update-grub?
[06:54] <Jordan_U> rabidweezle: Yes
[06:56] <rabidweezle> good, that should fix it
[06:56] <rabidweezle> :)
[06:56] <rabidweezle> thanks Jordan_U

[06:56] <krdyt> Jordan_U, i got major errors on grub-pc install during update
[06:56] <newlyparted> anybody know where to find the info or know how to remove a windows 7 grub entry... i had wubi installled and cant repair my grub..
[06:56] <ma> Hey
[06:56] <Jordan_U> rabidweezle: You're welcome.
[06:57] <Dr_Willis> newlyparted:  you are still using WUbi? or using a normal install now?
[06:57] <newlyparted> normal... had to delete wubi instead of uninstall..
[06:57] <krdyt> mainly cant open /dev/sd?/  installing to a partition THIS IS A BAD IDEA
[06:57] <bbq^> newlyparted: you can directly edit grub config
[06:57] <Jordan_U> krdyt: What errors?
[06:58] <bbq^> !grub newlyparted
[06:58] <thune3> psiforce_: it doesn't appear so. unless you are talking tens of thousands of small files i can't imagine it being a problem except maybe on an embedded system.
[06:58] <newlyparted> windows7 grub
[06:58] <newlyparted> thats the problem
[06:58] <ma> When I try to install Ubuntu ( 32 or 64 bit ) I get alot of errors when I restart. And  Ubuntu is not booting. The installation goes as normal, but I get a whole page with the same error. What is this?
[06:58] <ma> anyone knows?
[06:58] <psiforce_> thune3: try over a million
[06:59] <Pyr0> hello

[07:01]  * rabidweezle reboots to test his terminal
[07:01] <ma> I dont have the error now. But i've gotten Ubuntu installed. But I'm afraid to reinstall it. I think it's something about the bootloader, because I can choose between Win 7 and Ubuntu on startup, but none of them boots.
[07:01] <Jordan_U> ma: What happens when you try to boot Ubuntu?
[07:02] <ma> I get some text.. I dont remember what, but its like hdd, 1 EXT something, but I can't do anything

[07:02] <Jordan_U> krdyt: Can you run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc" and when asked what devices to install to , *de*select any partitions, select only the drive itself (like sda, rather than sda1)

[07:06] <Doonz> Hey guys, Im looking at replacing my failing router. Is there a reccomended linux software router kicking around that you guys would reccomend?
[07:07] <krdyt> Jordan_U,  i have 2 internal drives ive had the whole dual boot time, 1in 2ext HDD that are irrelevant, should i choose the int HDD that ubuntu is installed to?
[07:07] <FlameTai1> dmglouis: I can select them, but they won't enable, the screen flashes a few times then it says "Desktop effects could not be enabled"
[07:07] <dmglouis> oh ok
[07:07] <bbq^> ma how many harddrives are you using ?
[07:07] <ma> 2. I use 1 for downloaded stuff, and 1 for OS
[07:07] <dartt> can nyone recommend a gud book or website to refresh python
[07:07] <FlameTai1> dmglouis: Any ideas?
[07:08] <ma> 500 GB. Right now I only have 200 GB to use for Ubuntu.. I don't really know why
[07:08] <bbq^> ok so are you running Windows and Ubuntu... duel Booting them from the same harddrive ?
[07:08] <bbq^> ok
[07:08] <ma> No
[07:08] <ma> I don't dualboot
[07:08] <dmglouis> FlameTai1: may have something to do with your driver version
[07:08] <qwertyjustin> hi, whats the command line to install the KDE Desktop Environment on ubuntu 10.04?
[07:08] <rabidweezle> dartt, think python (it's a free pdf and html book)
[07:08] <ma> I tried to install Ubuntu When I had Ubuntu installed.
[07:08] <FlameTai1> dmglouis: I have the latest restricted driver I believe, anyway to fix it though?
[07:08] <dmglouis> FlameTai1: have you tried the non-proprietary ones?
[07:09] <alex54> hey everyone.  I shrank my windows partition and now I have 54 gigs of unallocated space.  How would I add this to my ubuntu partition?
[07:09] <ma> And I choose delete and use the whole disk or something when I install Ubuntu
[07:09] <FlameTai1> dmglouis: IDK of any of the non-proprietary ones, would you have any suggestions?
[07:09] <bbq^> Right, well perhaps try reinstalling it and removing existing installs during the install process..
[07:09] <bbq^> hrmm, there goes that idea
[07:09] <KukMan_> hi. I have three keyboard layout. I want to swithing ( by hotkey ) only between two. Third, if I need, I want enable manually, by mouse choosing or special hotkey
[07:09] <FlameTai1> dmglouis: Like on how to find some etc.
[07:09] <KukMan_> How can I do this?
[07:09] <qwertyjustin> hi, whats the command line to install the KDE Desktop Environment on ubuntu 10.04?
[07:09] <bbq^> ma is the bootloader on the same drive as the ubuntu install or is there an old bootloader on the other HDD
[07:09] <bazhang> qwertyjustin, install the kubuntu-desktop package
[07:09] <ma> Hmm. I've even taken out the harddrive, and put it in another PC to format it
[07:10] <dmglouis> FlameTai1:I think its called nouveau
[07:10] <qwertyjustin> thanks
[07:10] <ma> the Windows 7 bootloader is on the same drive
[07:10] <Fudge> qwertyjustin  does kubuntu-desktop give you what you want
[07:10] <Jordan_U> krdyt: Yes.
[07:10] <ma> But I dont understand why it's not deleted..
[07:10] <thune3> psiforce_: inelagantly the only thing i can think of is to make a 1-file loopback filesystem inside of tmpfs that has a smaller blocksize.
[07:10] <bbq^> That is more than likely your problem ma
[07:10] <Fudge> oops sorry was bit slow to answwer
[07:10] <qwertyjustin> cheers
[07:10] <bbq^> having 2 on the same drive is not a good idea.
[07:10] <bbq^> Use Grub to select windows or Ubuntu
[07:11] <psiforce_> thune3: was just thinking the same thing myself
[07:11] <FlameTai1> dmglouis: Just use the software center to search for it?
[07:11] <ma> Now it works well, I'm running Ubuntu now.. After trying to install 4-5 times
[07:11] <dmglouis> FlameTai1: yea
[07:11] <bbq^> Sweet
[07:11] <dmglouis> FlameTai1: however, all i see there is nouveau-firmware, not that if thats all there is to it
[07:11] <bbq^> I had similar issues a while back when booting from sam drive
[07:11] <psiforce_> thune3: and then just use a light weight filesystem
[07:11] <ma> But I can't understand why the Win 7 bootloader is still on the drive after i've formatted it.. :P
[07:12] <bbq^> bootloader was a pain
[07:12] <bbq^> haha, thats because windows sucks
[07:12] <ma> Hmm
[07:12] <ma> I didn't have that problem in 9.10
[07:12] <FlameTai1> dmglouis: So is that what I need or?
[07:12] <Blue1> ma format doesn't always overwrite the mbr
[07:12] <bbq^> So you're on Lucid now
[07:12] <ma> mbr?
[07:12] <Blue1> i have gone back to 9.10
[07:12] <bbq^> yea mbr usually doesn't get cleaned
[07:12] <Blue1> ma master boot record
[07:12] <ma> what does that mean?
[07:12] <ma> is that the bootloader?
[07:13] <bbq^> the only way to do that is to restore your drive back to factory condition (**risky**) using your manufacturers software, thats if they provide any
[07:13] <Blue1> ma just like it sounds - it is the controlling boot record for the device
[07:13] <krdyt> thanks Jordan_U, i can only reboot and pray :D
[07:13] <bbq^> mbr == Master Boot Record
[07:13] <ma> Hmm, I guess I have to google that
[07:13] <ma> hah
[07:14] <dmglouis> FlameTai1: yea, I think thats it
[07:14] <Jordan_U> krdyt: You're welcome.
[07:14] <LeServal> Hi, I would like to start a terminal tty9 and then to stop that terminal tty9 WITHOUT restarting Ubuntu. I have a tty9.conf in /etc/init which works fine if I reboot - how do I do it without a reboot?
[07:14] <dmglouis> FlameTai1: however, 3D support is pretty shaky with the open source one
[07:14] <Blue1> ma -- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Master_boot_record
[07:14] <ma> I'm reading it now :)
[07:14] <bbq^> yea ma i am glad you have it working :)
[07:14] <ma> Me too
[07:14]  * bbq^ reckons irssi is pretty sweet compared to x-chat
[07:14] <ma> thanks for your help! :)
[07:14] <niugao> How to study linux!
[07:15] <ma> Bye !
[07:15] <bbq^> np ma =]
[07:15] <bbq^> niugao: Use it
[07:15] <bazhang> !manual | niugao
[07:15] <Jordan_U> krdyt: You're welcome.
[07:15] <Blue1> irssi is simple
[07:15] <bbq^> Blue1: Yea it is and its not intrusive
[07:15] <Blue1> i am lazy and use the irc client that comes with pidgin
[07:15] <bbq^> very minimal
[07:15] <FlameTai1> dmglouis: I installed but it never told me to restart or anything so is that even what I need? lol
[07:15] <niugao> Thank you!
[07:16] <bbq^> ahh right, yea i tried that ages ago - then went to x-chat... Got over the graphical ui
[07:16] <dmglouis> FlameTai1: yea, that doesn't seem right
[07:16] <bbq^> finding irssi to be all i need
[07:16] <Blue1> pidgin is the "debe" programme (does everything but eat)
[07:16] <bbq^> Yea it is great
[07:16] <bbq^> i use it for IM
[07:16] <dmglouis> FlameTai1: usually another video driver requires restart of X and that means restarting or at least logging out and back in
[07:16] <bbq^> found it a little annoying when using multiple channels in IRC though
[07:16] <bbq^> i actually bought x-chat for my windows pc
[07:17] <bbq^> it is a great irc client
[07:17] <bbq^> support them etc
[07:17] <Blue1> bbq^: the trick to using multiple irc channels/servers is to create a unique name for each server
[07:17] <bbq^> Ahh right, well that would have helped Blue1 if i knew that back then :p
[07:17] <thune3> psiforce_: exactly. but not knowing what you are ultimately trying to do... it sounds like a nested hash table is the right tool for the job
[07:17] <Blue1> so on efnet I am one name, on freenode, another
[07:18] <bbq^> yea well i use the same name on most networks... geekshed, freenode and gamesurge
[07:18] <bbq^> anyway time for a feed :)
[07:18] <Blue1> bbq^: i had problems so I just use different names =- confusing but it works
[07:18] <bbq^> Yea it would get confusing, at least pidgin would store your credentials ;)
[07:18] <Jordan_U> bbq^: For irssi "/join -network #channel", and look to the left of the channel name for the network name of the current window.
[07:19] <Blue1> indeed

[07:22] <dhikr> oh !

[07:23] <Blue1> i know it's french but that's all
[07:23] <dhikr> sorry
[07:23] <dhikr> i use an translate it is for that
[07:23] <Blue1> dhikr: what are you trying to un-install/cleanup?
[07:24] <LeServal> dhikr: I found a nice program "bleachbit" for cleaning up localisations, unneeded dependencies etc. If that is what you need.
[07:24] <FlameTai1> dmglouis: I found this https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Testing/NouveauEvaluation but no link to drivers?

[07:24] <Oyster> hi, what does nmap package stand for?
[07:25] <dhikr> Thank you Blue1 and LeServal
[07:25] <LeServal> Oyster: scanning open ports.
[07:25] <dmglouis> FlameTai1: I found this website, it has a script that apparently tells you why you can't run compiz, http://forlong.blogage.de/entries/pages/Compiz-Check
[07:25] <Oyster> LeServal, thanks=)
[07:26] <FlameTai1> dmglouis: I've had that script, it tells me it can't run do to me having 2 video cards?
[07:26] <Blue1> oh I found out that my apc software works today -- had a power outage at 8 am (lasted 90 min) slept right through it.
[07:26] <dmglouis> FlameTai1: ohh, do you have an onboard graphics card?
[07:26] <FlameTai1> dmglouis: Yes.
[07:26] <FlameTai1> dmglouis: Would that cause a problem also?
[07:26] <KukMan> I want to exclude some layout from layouts switching. And want to be able enable it from some hotkey
[07:28] <dmglouis> FlameTai1: yea it might
[07:28] <FlameTai1> dmglouis: How would I fix that then...?
[07:28] <dmglouis> FlameTai1: you have a desktop?
[07:28] <Dr_Willis> FlameTai1:  ive ran compiz with 2 video cards. 2 nvidia ones at least..
[07:28] <phoenix__> any one familier with alsa configuration
[07:28] <FlameTai1> dmglouis: Yes
[07:29] <dmglouis> FlameTai1: nvm about that then, cause I saw someone having a problem with their laptop switching cards
[07:29] <dmglouis> FlameTai1: i dont think that will happen on your system
[07:29] <newlyparted> well i managed to remove it from grub....

[07:31] <dmglouis> FlameTai1: This seems to be a good guide: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=659200
[07:31] <FlameTai1> dmglouis: That's about shutting down the PC? lol
[07:31] <dmglouis> FlameTai1: But I think you'd be better off working with proprietary drivers because I don't think compiz works well with nouveau
[07:32] <dmglouis> FlameTai1: oops, :) http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=6592005
[07:32] <FlameTai1> dmglouis: lawl that made my day xD
[07:34] <FlameTai1> dmglouis: 3D driver is NOT officially supported so wouldn't this not work? And also how am I supposed to get it to work with proprietary drivers, if I can't check what is keeping me from running it?
[07:35] <dmglouis> FlameTai1: yea, I think I got it confused with the ATI open source one
[07:35] <FlameTai1> dmglouis: What you mean?
[07:35] <dmglouis> FlameTai1: I thought nouveau supported compiz
[07:36] <dmglouis> FlameTai1: I'm pretty radeon does
[07:36] <dmglouis> *sure
[07:36] <FlameTai1> dmglouis:  Currently driver developers only support 2D driver (just as stable as nv driver, but faster). 3D driver is NOT officially supported and bug reports are NOT accepted, as there is still much to implement and memory management still has to be ironed out (playing 3d games with high resolutions for extended periods is not recommended...).
[07:36] <FlameTai1> The good news is that the driver supports composite, damage, render and many other extensions, so you can use metacity (gnome window manager) or xfwm4 (XFCE4 wm) built-in compositing managers to get all those neat effects. Also it's reported that Open Arena runs pretty well and I have tried to run Fallout2 under wine - runs pretty well for me.
[07:37] <FlameTai1> So it kinda supports it?
[07:38] <FlameTai1> dmglouis: If I uninstalled the propriety drivers, installed this, if it didn't work very well, couldn't I always just uninstall it and go back to propriety?
[07:38] <dmglouis> FlameTai1: yea, there shouldnt be any problem with that
[07:39] <dmglouis> FlameTai1: have you tried download the proprietary one from nvidia directly, though?
[07:39] <dmglouis> FlameTai1: its worth a shot
[07:39] <FlameTai1> dmglouis: Would there be any difference? I thought they all were the same because Ubuntu keeps them updated?
[07:41] <airtonix> my ubuntu lucid keeps trying to install linux-image-2.6.32-22-generic (2.6.32-22.36), and failing... how to prevent this ?
[07:42] <dmglouis> FlameTai1: Thats true. But I think the different install method might do something/omit something that the installing through ubuntu would have done
[07:42] <dmglouis> FlameTai1: also, Im reading that people are having luck just reinstalling the drivers
[07:43] <dmglouis> FlameTai1: so you might not even need to get it directly from nvidia
[07:43] <FlameTai1> dmglouis: I suppose I shall try, also it says 195.36.15 for driver version on the site it says 195.36.24
[07:43] <FlameTai1> dmglouis: I already tried reinstalling
[07:43] <dmglouis> FlameTai1: oh ok
[07:43] <dmglouis> FlameTai1: then, yea, I would try the nvidia.com route
[07:44] <FlameTai1> dmglouis: 3 mins till download is done will post results in a few
[07:44] <dmglouis> FlameTai1: okay, sounds good
[07:45] <LeServal> I would like to start a terminal tty9 and then to stop that terminal tty9 WITHOUT restarting Ubuntu. I have a tty9.conf in /etc/init which works fine if I reboot - how do I do it without a reboot? kill -1 1 or telinit q do not help btw.
[07:45] <joobie> anyone had experience setting up a half-bridge connection on linux where the gateway assigned is outside of the local subnet?
[07:45] <Fudge> hi I have a gigabyte g41 motherboard and get usb errors in my console, i suppress them with dmesg -n 1 but wonder if a bios update would help, its currently from factory 040909 date. Also can I get ubuntu lucid to update it?
[07:46] <bnagy> joobie: can you explain a bit more, because on the face of it that makes no sense - you can't have a gateway that is outside your subnet
[07:47] <bnagy> because, you know, how do you get to it :)
[07:47] <indio> Hi. How do I minimize Evolution to the icon tray?
[07:47] <phlak_user> bnagy: he probably wants to setup a bridge and not a router
[07:47] <Ganang> hi guys, i did something in my ubuntu that messed by network card.....is there any chance to rollback all the configurations for 2 days ago?
[07:48] <joobie> bnagy, i have a modem which is setup in half-bridge connected to my linux box.. the modem does pppoa auth to my dsl provider and it hands over the public ip to linux
[07:48] <thune3> Fudge: new bios might work, what is the error?
[07:48] <joobie> i cant route out that interface at the moment
[07:48] <joobie> the problem is it usually assigns a /32 netmask to the interface with a gateway that is obviously outside of that netmask
[07:49] <zljing> my ubuntu 10.04 is ok
[07:49] <joobie> on a standard pppoa connection.. not sure how i can make linux like this
[07:49] <phlak_user> joobie: the normal way is to use pppoe at your linux box
[07:49] <Dr_Willis> LeServal:  how are you starting it?
[07:50] <joobie> phlak_user, im trying to avoid that.. prefer to use half-bridge if it's possible
[07:50] <LeServal> Dr_Willis: I copied tty3.conf to tty9.conf in /etc/init, changed tty3 to tt9, on reboot it works. I want it WITHOUT a reboot.
[07:50] <joobie> i mean, it works on windows im thinking it must wokr in linux?
[07:50] <Dr_Willis> LeServal:  i have a similer thing via this  sulogin.conf in /etc/init --> /etc/init/sulogin.conf
[07:50] <Dr_Willis> http://pastebin.com/5Vdf9S0Y
[07:51] <Dr_Willis> LeServal:  that gives me a 'root' terminal (for rescue needs) on tty2  if i exit it.. it does not restart.
[07:51] <indio> Hi. Does anybody know how to minimize Evolution to the system tray?
[07:51] <Dr_Willis> LeServal:  if i want it back after exiting it ->  openvt -c 2 -w sulogin
[07:51] <NZheretic> I have been trying to help a friend over phone set up an Ubuntu 10.4 i386  dial-up connection to an ISP using gnome-ppp & external modem. ( It worked well with older fedora ) Gnome-ppp connects  and logs in but pppd is not registering ( not visable with ifconfig ) and the connection times out. Anybody use gnome-ppp or wvdial
[07:52] <phlak_user> joobie: how do you do it in windows?
[07:52] <phlak_user> !dialup
[07:52] <bnagy> joobie: http://www.wlug.org.nz/Half%20bridge%20with%20PPPoA
[07:52] <bnagy> joobie: route to the device with a host route, then add that as the default gw
[07:52] <joobie> phlak_user, just set it to dhcp
[07:52] <joobie> and bobs ur uncle
[07:52] <joobie> bnagy, i foudn that post..
[07:53] <joobie> problem is i dont want to add it as the default gw
[07:53] <joobie> i have another interface that i want to be default
[07:53] <dmglouis> FlameTai1: hey, I have got to sleep now
[07:53] <dmglouis> FlameTai1: sorry I couldn't have been more help
[07:53] <dmglouis> *of
[07:53] <LeServal> Dr_Willis: I need a terminal starting and stopping. Like, when you press Ctrl-Alt-F9, normally, there is no terminal. I want that there is one as long as I like - and then, that there is none when I want to stop it. Normally, I have to erase tty9.conf for that again and restart init. But kill -1 1 does not work (in NetBSD and 8.04, it did). I shall now check out openvt, thanks!
[07:53] <bnagy> joobie: so what do you want routed to the adsl?
[07:53] <joobie> bnagy, just a specific ip
[07:54] <NZheretic> Doh 'sudo adduser USERNAME dip' 'sudo adduser USERNAME dialout'
[07:54] <bnagy> joobie: can't you do the same thing but route add ip netmask 255.255.255.255 dev eth0 ?
[07:54] <Dr_Willis> LeServal:  You want tty9 to work uidentically to tty1,2 3 and so on then?
[07:54] <phlak_user> joobie: you can add a static route for that ip with the adsl being the default device
[07:54] <Ganang> hi guys, my wireless network suddenly stoped working.....
[07:54] <bnagy> uh sorry to the correct ip dev eth0
[07:54] <bnagy> just substitute for the 'default gw' part?
[07:55] <Ganang> the drivers are still there but my card does not find any wireless network
[07:55] <mongrKKK> dolphin owns you faggots irc.hardchats.com #bmc
[07:55] <Fudge> thune3  I think its Jun  6 16:51:08 gigabyte kernel: [22903.050039] usb 2-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 35

[07:55] <NTdenny> dolphin owns you faggots irc.hardchats.com #bmc
[07:55] <joobie> bnagy, i tried that, all i see when i tcpdump on that interface is 'arp who-has <dst-ip> tell <my-int-ip>' ..
[07:55] <phlak_user> Ganang: are there any wireless networks around?
[07:55] <AndrewX192> Ganang, what model computer/wireless card?
[07:55] <joobie> phlak_user, i dont want the adsl to be the default gw
[07:55] <joobie> just route for a specific ip
[07:56] <bnagy> joobie: maybe patebin netstat -nr ?
[07:56] <Ganang> phlak_user: AndrewX192: yes there are. It might have something to do with something that i installed...is there any chance to rollback the system configuration for 2 days ago?
[07:56] <joobie> bnagy, it adds the route fine
[07:56] <joobie> bnagy, the route works.. because im seeing the arp who-has
[07:56] <joobie> on that specific interface
[07:56] <phlak_user> joobie: this sums it up --> Windows doesn't seem to mind the gateway being in a different subnet, but Linux does.
[07:57] <AndrewX192> Ganang, I just spend a few hours dealing with wireless issues? do you happen to be using a intel pro wireless card on a dell laptop?
[07:57] <joobie> but i think the problem is that interface doesnt know its gateway, so it does a arp lookup rather than pass it to the gateway
[07:57] <bnagy> joobie: well if it were routing it wouldn't be arping
[07:57] <joobie> phlak_user, i know.. but what's the fix then?
[07:57] <thune3> Fudge: that looks like a kernel boot message, that keeps repeating?
[07:57] <AndrewX192> Ganang, also what does network manager say about your wireless cards?
[07:57] <joobie> bnagy, bingo
[07:57] <bnagy> so, maybe paste output of netstat -nr? :)
[07:57] <Fudge> ye s thune3  thats why i had to supress it, sinec i use text to speech it was  very annoying
[07:58] <joobie> bnagy, you miss the point
[07:58] <joobie> without that static host route, if i tcpdump on the interface i won't see anything
[07:58] <Fudge> thune3  does it mean somethings misconfigured?
[07:58] <joobie> with the static host route, if i tcpdump on the interface i do see the arp request on that interface
[07:58] <Fudge> perhaps its my card reader
[07:58] <Ganang> Andrex192: no....i also spent some hours to get it working...but it was ok....i have it working more than a year...but yesterday i started to mess up with aircrack and i installed  this -> apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r`  linux-source kernel-package libncurses5-dev fakeroot wget bzip2
[07:58] <Ganang> and after that the wireless stoped working
[07:58] <phlak_user> joobie: add a static route as explained in that article
[07:58] <bnagy> joobie: no, I really don't I know you think you've configured it right, but it's not working, so for me to help you I need to look for myself
[07:58] <joobie> the difference being that with the static host route, it is sending the packet to the interface, but the interface doesnt know its own default gw
[07:59] <bnagy> joobie: that's how troubleshooting works :) Second pair of eyes.
[07:59] <joobie> phlak_user, i have.. i just havent added the default
[07:59] <joobie> sure one sec bnagy
[07:59] <joobie> i have to reconfig and bring up the int
[07:59] <thune3> Fudge: wait, actually that is the message when a 'new' device is connected. can you determine which device it is re-registering? (should be a few lines later)
[07:59] <Ganang> that is why rolling back the system configuration would be nice..but i am not sure if ubuntu has this feature
[07:59] <Fudge> thune3  do you midn if query you?
[07:59] <adum> recommend a nice music player? possibly with some decent visualizations?
[07:59] <Fudge> midn if i query you i mean
[07:59] <bnagy> joobie: or just tell me the exact two route commands you're using
[07:59] <Fudge> hope you read typonees
[07:59] <phlak_user> Ganang: can you see dmesg when you turn off and on your wireless; it might throw up some clues
[07:59] <RDove> xmms is good, its like winamp for windows
[07:59] <thune3> Fudge: no, proceed
[08:00] <vect> adum: rymthmnbox
[08:00] <AndrewX192> Ganang, try opening a terminal and do "iwlist scan"
[08:00] <adum> oh xmms is still going on okay.. im back to linux after taking a vacation for a while, good to be back
[08:00] <vect> xmms is old
[08:00] <adum> old ha, i knew it
[08:00] <vect> it's 2010, not 1999
[08:00] <Ganang> phlak_user: AndrewX192: i receive no scan results for wlan0
[08:01] <AndrewX192> Ganang, hm
[08:01] <phlak_user> Ganang: if i were you, i'd go back one step
[08:01] <AndrewX192> Ganang, What wireless card is this?
[08:01] <Ganang> phalk_user: how can i rollback?
[08:01] <joobie> bnagy, http://pastebin.com/ZLu9FM8n
[08:02] <Ganang> AndrewX192: This is a Broadcom 4318 Airforce One
[08:02] <joobie> bnagy, eth5 is the adsl interface (half-bridge) and eth0 is my main wan interface
[08:02] <lizhihui> fgh
[08:03] <bnagy> joobie: and what's the address / range you want routed through the adsl?
[08:03] <phlak_user> joobie: the route command should have dev eth5 at the end
[08:03] <joobie> with that in place, if i try to hit 203.55.229.194, i just see a heap of 'arp who-has 203.55.229.194 tell 210.40.197.50' on eth5
[08:03] <phlak_user> Ganang: have you changed the kernel?
[08:03] <ManDay> I press the PWR-Button to hibernate the computer. It hibernates. I press it again to bring it back up. It comes back up. I'm on the desktop for a few seconds and then, without me having pressed anything, it goes back into hiberation! When I bring it back the second time everything works. This happens EVERY time!
[08:03] <Ganang> phlak_user: which system log shows me the last installations?
[08:03] <Ganang> phlak_user: i just ran the following : apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r`  linux-source kernel-package libncurses5-dev fakeroot wget bzip2
[08:04] <joobie> bnagy, i want to route 203.55.229.194 thorugh the adsl
[08:04] <joobie> phlak_user, it does
[08:04] <phlak_user> Ganang: none of those has anything to do with your wireless driver
[08:04] <bnagy> joobie: ok I think you've got it wrong then
[08:04] <AndrewX192> pharmaka, unless he installed a kernel module which interacts with the wireless drivef
[08:05] <joobie> bnagy, ?
[08:05] <phlak_user> joobie: can we see what your current routing table looks like?
[08:05] <joobie> phlak_user, http://pastebin.com/ZLu9FM8n
[08:05] <bnagy> the route to 203.55.229.192 should point to a single IP which is your adsl side gateway
[08:05] <Ganang> phlak_user: therefore...i would like to know exactly how to remove this .... how is the best way to do it? Since i installed with apt-get..maybe i can unistall with synaptic too
[08:05] <joobie> ok
[08:05] <joobie> but that is the problem
[08:05] <bnagy> which is going to be close to 210.40.197.50 - which is your public IP, yes?
[08:05] <joobie> no
[08:05] <joobie> that is another interface
[08:06] <joobie> 202.205.208.17 is the public ip for the adsl
[08:06] <Msnbc> Can I go to sleep while ubuntu upgrades to the newest version? I'm currently getting new packages.
[08:06] <bnagy> ok! and what's the gw it gives you?
[08:06] <phlak_user> Ganang: just run those commands with "remove" in place of "install"
[08:07] <joobie> bnagy, that is the problem.... exactly the problem! :)
[08:07] <Dr_Willis> Msnbc:  if it has to ask a question.. it will wait.. :)
[08:07] <bnagy> joobie: should be in that same subnet
[08:07] <Dr_Willis> Msnbc:  but it shouldent ask untill its got stuff downloaded
[08:07] <joobie> bnagy, if i hook up the modem in half-bridge to a windows machine and see what it gets, it gets a public ip of 202.205.208.17/24 with a gw of 202.205.208.16
[08:07] <bnagy> ok
[08:08] <joobie> bnagy, if i disable the half bridge and i look at what ips are being assigned to the modem, i see 202.205.208.17/32 with a gw of something out of that subnet
[08:08] <bnagy> joobie: so you want route add -host 202.205.208.16 dev eth5
[08:08] <joobie> i've tried that..
[08:08] <joobie> sec let me do it again
[08:08] <bnagy> then route add 203.55.whatever 255..... 202.205 etc
 then route add 203.55.whatever 255..... 202.205 etc
[08:09] <joobie> what do you mean with that line?
[08:09] <joobie> i got your previous one..
[08:09] <Ganang> phlak_user: perfect....easier then i thought....thanks!
[08:09] <joobie> ill add it for testing, though have tried this (because the articles say to add the gw as a static host route, but then say you ened to add it as default)
[08:09] <bnagy> sry :) add a host route with a /32 netmask for your final destination pointing to the ip of the gatewat
[08:10] <phlak_user> Ganang: yw
[08:10] <bnagy> so route for ip of gateway to device (eth5), route for final IP to ip of gateway
[08:13] <keekles> hey guys i am having trouble compiling this http://forum.notebookreview.com/asus-reviews-owners-lounges/439591-official-ul30vt-x1-owners-lounge-123.html#post5663702
[08:14] <keekles> when i do "make" it says "nothing to be done for 'default'. "
[08:14] <bnagy> keekles: did you do ./configure first?
[08:14] <bnagy> not that I read your link
[08:14] <keekles> there is no config executable
[08:14] <keekles> the thread that i posted has only the code and the makefile :/
[08:15] <bnagy> keekles: guess you need to read the makefile then and work out the targets
[08:15] <ManDay> I press the PWR-Button to hibernate the computer. It hibernates. I press it again to bring it back up. It comes back up. I'm on the desktop for a few seconds and then, without me having pressed anything, it goes back into hiberation! When I bring it back the second time everything works. This happens EVERY time!
[08:15] <keekles> ok cool thanks for pointing me in the right direction
[08:15] <silv3r_m00n> isn't genbarcode there in synaptic
[08:15] <silv3r_m00n> ?
[08:15] <joobie> bnagy, i think you might have done it
[08:15] <keekles> what would be the console command to check where those directories are?
[08:16] <bnagy> joobie: \o/
[08:16] <keekles> like in windows you can do %system%
[08:16] <joobie> possibly
[08:16] <joobie> seeing another issue atm im trying to resolve to be 100% on this
[08:16] <bnagy> joobie: cause I need to go for lunch now :)
[08:16] <joobie> will be 5-10mins
[08:16] <joobie> oh
[08:16] <joobie> duck out man
[08:16] <joobie> ill hang around and let you know how it goes

[08:18] <joobie> all this bridging is driving me insane :P
[08:18] <|_ocke> sausagetits
[08:18] <bnagy> I have an ubuntu server where the physical NIC flaps which means the bridge interface won't stabilize
[08:18] <|_ocke> er
[08:18] <joobie> nod
[08:18] <|_ocke> uh crap wrong chan
[08:18] <bnagy> but I think I may have found an approach that works in the meantime
[08:18] <|_ocke> sorry
[08:18] <shubbar> i m stuck with Canon LBP 3300
[08:18] <joobie> ahh
[08:18] <bnagy> anyway :O <-- fudz
[08:19] <Walex> BTW my Ubuntu 10.04 install is no longer booting properly. It always gets into the initramfs BusyBox prompt, and from that I cannot mount any filesystem, the error message is that they are busy or already mounted. My root FS type is JFS and I have added the 'jfs' module to the initrd already. Suggestions?
[08:19] <pkkm> How to perform a search for files, which names contain 'email', 'e-mail' or 'address'?

[08:20] <A83C7F67EC> (without options)
[08:21] <Walex> A83C7F67EC: rootfs, sys, proc, dev, dev/pts (from BusyBox)
[08:21] <pkkm> Walex, how to use 'find'?
[08:22] <Walex> pkkm: there are some examples in 'man find' and online tutorials, but something like 'find DIR -iname 'email' -o -iname 'e-mail' ....
[08:23] <FlameTai1> Guys how would I set the default run level on my system so that it will boot to a VGA console?
[08:23] <maco> FlameTai1: remove gdm from starting in /etc/rc2.d/ i think
[08:23] <pkkm> Walex, thanks
[08:24] <maco> FlameTai1: runlevels 2-5 all have gdm if its installed, and ubuntu runs in 2
[08:24] <keekles> anyone mind taking a quick look at this makefile? It's not working and im not sure what else to edit. http://pastebin.com/6dH1rCPB
[08:25] <banker247> how would i run a game as sudo
[08:26] <FlameTai1> maco: So I would have to remove them all from starting from 2-5?
[08:26] <crdlb> banker247: why would you want to?
[08:26] <banker247> tell crdlb so it has direct rendering enabled
[08:26] <Walex> FlameTai1: you can also set the login manager to 'none'
[08:27] <FlameTai1> Walex: How would I do that?

[08:39] <keekles> cd Program\ Files
[08:39] <tahir> have attempted to add the .exe file to a bootable dos image, but no go, unable to see the file when booting into dos
[08:39] <crdlb> banker247: it is likely that the wine game is being run correctly from the menu, so should try running it with compiz off
[08:39] <tahir> any help would be greatly appreciated, thankyou
[08:39] <keekles> tahir the exe probably writes a floppy image
[08:40] <tahir> keekles, no, it says that you must execute the file from a bootable dos
[08:40] <keekles> oh my
[08:40] <banker247> crdlb how do i turn compiz off
[08:41] <keekles> do you have a windows machine available
[08:41] <banker247> crdlb whats happening is.. i dont have direct rending when not in sudo mode i think
[08:41] <tahir> keekles, I can see all the files in the image along with the exe, but am unable to see it when booting into dos, any ideas?
[08:41] <crdlb> banker247: system > prefs > appearance > visual effects > none
[08:41] <banker247> crdlb because it worked out of the ternimal when i put appli/terminal
[08:41] <keekles> how are you booting dos

[08:42] <xtheunknown0> Hi, can anyone please help me with my wireless setup?
[08:42] <crdlb> banker247: no, it's just a quirk in how compiz was launching the terminal when you pressed ctrl+alt+T
[08:42] <tahir> keekles, i used master iso to edit and add the .exe file, but am unable to see it when booting into dos
[08:42] <tahir> xtheunknown0, whats the problem?

[08:43] <FloodBot2> keekles: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[08:43] <crdlb> banker247: the terminal runs as a regular user either way, but compiz has LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=1 in its environment, and it passes it on to its children
[08:43] <tahir> keekles, i do not have a floppy :( only cd rom
[08:43] <xtheunknown0> Before my reinstallation of Ubuntu, I had ubuntu detecting some wireless networks. I've just reinstalled and Ubuntu can't detect any networks.
[08:43] <tahir> keekles, any other way?
[08:43] <keekles> what version of dos did you say
[08:43] <banker247> crdlb so games will run better with it off/
[08:43] <banker247> ?
[08:44] <tahir> keekles, 6.22, but i can get 5.0 also
[08:44] <crdlb> banker247: with compiz off, yes
[08:44] <keekles> i assume 6.22 is 32-bit
[08:44] <crdlb> banker247: you're not using 10.04, are you?
[08:45] <ncxcude> god... i need u? u guys awesome....
[08:45] <keekles> maybe use a different program to take apart the dos ISO and drop that executable into it
[08:45] <Ellement> When someone gets a free moment, could they please help me
[08:45] <tahir> xtheunknown0, you need to go to system->administrator->hardware drivers and install either the proprietary driver or the open source one, in order to install the open soruce one you will need to enable some extra repo's
[08:45] <keekles> which are you using currently?
[08:46] <tahir> keekles, what could be causing master iso to be different?...just wondering, or do youknow another app that will do this?
[08:46] <banker247> crdlb game still runs sluggish but better any toher tips?
[08:46] <tahir> keekles, version of master iso?
[08:46] <well_laid_lawn> Ellement: which user are you working as?
[08:46] <ncxcude> i just waiting another day to ask?? love this channel...
[08:47] <crdlb> banker247: sorry, that's all I've got
[08:47] <Ellement> well_laid_lawn: i'm using the live usb boot, and i get this error once i click on install 10.04 lts
[08:47] <banker247> crdlb 10.4 ? of what?
[08:47] <xtheunknown0> Hi, who was the person who set up a private conversation with me?
[08:47] <tahir> xtheunknown0, did you get my last messsage?
[08:47] <crdlb> banker247: of ubuntu, aka lucid
[08:47] <well_laid_lawn> Ellement: that error says you are working as root afaik
[08:47] <banker247> crdlb i have latest version
[08:47] <xtheunknown0> Was it: if you instal ubuntu?
[08:47] <xtheunknown0> Sorry - I'm not sure why I lost connection.
[08:47] <crdlb> banker247: what video card?
[08:47] <tahir> xtheunknown0, you need to go to system->administrator->hardware drivers and install either the proprietary driver or the open source one, in order to install the open soruce one you will need to enable some extra repo's
[08:47] <banker247> hd2600
[08:48] <banker247> crdlb hd2600 but i used to run this game in vista runs at over 120 fps
[08:48] <Ellement> well_laid_lawn: what can i do to install it?
[08:48] <xtheunknown0> Why didn't I know this when I was installing?
[08:48] <tahir> xtheunknown0, ?
[08:49] <crdlb> banker247: yeah, the proprietary ATI driver isn't great :/
[08:49] <well_laid_lawn> Ellement: for a start in a terminal type   whoami   and see what it returns
[08:49] <xtheunknown0> Never mind
[08:49] <banker247> crdlb anything i can do?
[08:49] <Ellement> when booting into live usb, whats the proces to get to terminal screen?
[08:50] <tahir> xtheunknown0, they are proprietary so ubuntu cant install them automatically
[08:50] <crdlb> banker247: there might be, but I don't know it
[08:50] <tyler_d|werkin> what do you do when a file is owned by plugdev? and it wont chown properly?
[08:50] <well_laid_lawn> Ellement: ctrl+alt=f2 should work
[08:50] <well_laid_lawn> Ellement: ctrl+alt+f2 should work
[08:50] <tahir> xtheunknown0, because of legal issues
[08:50] <banker247> crdlb whoa i just made it emulate a desktop and it works great now
[08:50] <xtheunknown0> All drivers are proprietary?; I thought there were such as thing native Linux drivers...
[08:51] <WRodd> hello??
[08:51] <crdlb> banker247: you mean the setting in wine? perhaps it's just running at a lower resolution now
[08:51] <banker247> crdlb now i put it at 1920x1080
[08:51] <WRodd> can somebody help me?
[08:52] <tahir> xtheunknown0, yes there are, but apprently in this version this is not the choice, as in order to install them you need to enable the "archived" repo's in software sources under administrator
[08:52] <wildbat> !anyone | WRodd
[08:53] <WRodd> can anyone help me?
[08:53] <olskolirc> ok guys I have an inch of desktop border on the left side and I can't get my programs to maximize the way I want - panel is the same size but the actual desktop changed - fix?
[08:53] <tahir> any expirienced linux or wine users advice, good or really bad idea to do a bios update from wine?
[08:54] <tyler_d|werkin> how do I add a gid to a user?
[08:55] <xtheunknown0> Why is the account I create during installation not 'root'?
[08:55] <tyler_d|werkin> xtheunknown0: sudo access.... not root
[08:55] <jufer> where i can get the source lists for rootstock
[08:55] <tyler_d|werkin> xtheunknown0: security thing
[08:56] <FlameTai1> well_laid_lawn: I got it I think
[08:56] <tahir> xtheunknown0, it is generally considered very tabo to ever be logged in as root in linux
[08:56] <well_laid_lawn> FlameTai1: great! I think... :]
[08:56] <FlameTai1> Well
[08:56] <ManDay> I press the PWR-Button to hibernate the computer. It hibernates. I press it again to bring it back up. It comes back up. I'm on the desktop for a few seconds and then, without me having pressed anything, it goes back into hiberation! When I bring it back the second time everything works. This happens EVERY time!
[08:56] <xtheunknown0> Oh - so you're restricted to a non-root account for all installations (just provide a password?)
[08:56] <FlameTai1> well_laid_lawn: I never got the level thing but I know how to kill X server now
[08:57] <FlameTai1> well_laid_lawn: What's the chances of a driver update going wrong?
[08:57] <tahir> xtheunknown0, yes you can use the "sudo" program for that
[08:57] <tahir> xtheunknown0, or any other command
[08:57] <mek8630> Does anyone know how to get Vuze to stream to playstation 3? It shows up for the media server part on the playstation but the part in Vuze where you stick the movie you want to watch isnt there, if you have Vuze you will know what i am talking about.
[08:57] <well_laid_lawn> FlameTai1: it can happen but it isn't common for the non proprietry drivers to fail
[08:58] <xtheunknown0> ...which means...that the password I provide during installation is used for completing sudo commands *and* for logging into the first account created?
[08:58] <well_laid_lawn> xtheunknown0: yep
[09:00] <mek8630> Does anybody in here have Vuze
[09:00] <mek8630> ?
[09:00] <xtheunknown0> Well...am I correct in saying that neither Puppy nor DSL nor NimbleX have this 'system'? That ubuntu is the first to enforce the use of non-root accounts like this?
[09:01] <xtheunknown0> I don't use Vuze.
[09:02] <mek8630> I need to talk to someone that uses Vuze to stream movies to the playstation 3
[09:03] <mek8630> Seriously I am the only one in here that uses Vuze
[09:03] <hengjiu> kkk
[09:03] <mek8630> what is that about
[09:04] <hengjiu> 有人没
[09:05] <xtheunknown0> hengjiu: does that say 'does anyone something?' Not sure what the 'something' means
[09:05] <well_laid_lawn> !cn | hengjiu
[09:05] <jmarston> wow
[09:06] <mek8630> Anybody in here use Vuze
[09:06] <mek8630> please
[09:06] <jmarston> i use orb
[09:06] <jmarston> sorry
[09:06] <jmarston> lo
[09:06] <jmarston> lol
[09:06] <mek8630> haha
[09:06] <FloodBot2> jmarston: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[09:07] <mek8630> jmarston: can you stream movies to the playstation 3 with orb?
[09:07] <jmarston> yes
[09:08] <mek8630> jmarston: where can I get it then? and also does it download all the dependencies with it when I download it?
[09:08] <jmarston> its basically part of winamp but now its seperate i think  orb dot com
[09:08] <jmarston> yes it streams plays everything
[09:08] <ManDay> I press the PWR-Button to hibernate the computer. It hibernates. I press it again to bring it back up. It comes back up. I'm on the desktop for a few seconds and then, without me having pressed anything, it goes back into hiberation! When I bring it back the second time everything works. This happens EVERY time!
[09:09] <KungFuBear> how do I view my computer's 'system', like the ram and stuff?
[09:09] <well_laid_lawn> KungFuBear: sudo lshw   in terminal
[09:09] <thressdev> my trackpad/keyboard sometimes stops working for hp DV6000 running Lucid with latest upgrades.
[09:09] <thressdev> it happens at random, but i can re-create the event by pressing my "on/off" button for the trackpad, which, when turned back on, disrupts my mouse for a few seconds, and sometimes kills my keyboard (except commands like ctrl+alt+f1). when i do ctrl+alt+f1 i get function back to the keyboard, but not to the trackpad. even after re-boot it the trackpad still does not work (note, it works in the login screen). functionality returns at random
[09:09] <KungFuBear> well_laid_lawn thank you
[09:09] <mek8630> jmarston: well what I am asking is, is it already set up to stream to the playstation so that I don't have to download other dependencies?
[09:09] <olskolirc> nevermind i got it - i had a transparent panel on the left
[09:09] <olskolirc> thanks
[09:10] <jmarston> yes you just need to download and install  orb and you're set you don't have to download anything else
[09:11] <mek8630> jmarston: awesome well thank you I hope it works because Vuze is suppose to do it too but I can't figure out if it needs a plugin or what.
[09:11] <arrggghhh> hi
[09:12] <scriptwarlock> anyon eknows how do i find the libso.0 by using ls -l
[09:12] <mek8630> jmarston: but I don't know how to work the networking in Ubuntu or Xubuntu yet because I am still new to it, so hopefully the playstation will automatically pick it up as a media server
[09:12] <Dr_Willis> scriptwarlock:  whats the proper name? and what are you trying to find exactly and why?
[09:13] <xtheunknown0> Thank you to all who helped me with wireless. It now works!
[09:13] <scriptwarlock> libso.0
[09:13] <mek8630> Dr_Willis: you have helped me before you don't happen to use Vuze do you?
[09:13] <Dr_Willis> scriptwarlock:  and whats that supposed to be ?
[09:13] <scriptwarlock> Dr_Willis, if im not mistaken libso.0
[09:13] <Dr_Willis> mek8630:  not really. I tend to use other torrent programs
[09:13] <Dr_Willis> scriptwarlock:   most linux library files are 'somthing.so.#'
[09:13] <mek8630> Dr_Willis: but do you know what I need to be able to stream movies to the playstation with it?
[09:14] <scriptwarlock> Dr_Willis, i'm compiling something and i want to delete th old lib
[09:14] <Hackul0us> ?
[09:14] <Dr_Willis> mek8630:  No idea. I dont own a PS3 im not even sure it can do that.
[09:14] <Dr_Willis> scriptwarlock:  'locate filename'   but i doubt if 'libso.0' is the proper filename
[09:14] <Random832> !op sureeza77 spamming
[09:14] <mek8630> Dr_Willis: yeah it can cause I have done it with the Windows version but apparently I need a plugin or something with this version, thanks anyways though.

[09:20] <ManDay> I press the PWR-Button to hibernate the computer. It hibernates. I press it again to bring it back up. It comes back up. I'm on the desktop for a few seconds and then, without me having pressed anything, it goes back into hiberation! When I bring it back the second time everything works. This happens EVERY time!
[09:20] <Dr_Willis> ncxcude:  the main diff is the default desktop gui. the netbook edition might have a few tweaks for netbooks. but ive not really noticed any.
[09:21] <Dr_Willis> ManDay:  you checked the forums yet?
[09:21] <ManDay> Dr_Willis, I've submitted my question to the forums
[09:22] <Dr_Willis> ManDay:  becauise its proberly going to be very motherboard/pc make specific.   Ive jheard of similer things happening when people have 'auto hibernate/suspend after a set time' enabled.
[09:22] <Dr_Willis> ManDay:  its waking up.. seen that its not been used for X amount of time.. then hibernates back :)
[09:22] <ManDay> Dr_Willis, I'll turn of auto-suspend (auto-hinerbate does not exist to my knowledge)
[09:23] <ManDay> Dr_Willis, thats what I assumed too
[09:23] <ManDay> But then I saw that there is only auto-suspend but what happens is that it re-hibernates
[09:23] <Dr_Willis> ManDay:  i turn off all that stuff. :)  its never worked well for me in any OS on any machine ive had.
[09:23] <Dr_Willis> ManDay:  this is a Desktop right?
[09:23] <databridge> hey guiys
[09:23] <ManDay> Yes
[09:23] <ManDay> A very common p35
[09:24] <well_laid_lawn> !nick | salah give it up mate
[09:24] <ManDay> Dr_Willis, Hibernation appears to be rather problematic at all. After several hibernation/return-cycles performance drops significantly
[09:25] <well_laid_lawn> thnx mneptok
[09:25] <databridge> i`m using vnc and the terminal client on linux for connecting to a windows 2008 server and the vnc is so slow that you can`t work, the rdp terminal client works but its even a lot of slower than on windows, also vnc is fine on windows too
[09:25] <databridge> and on linux the vnc is also slow connecting to other linux desktops
[09:25] <databridge> you can`t work with it
[09:25] <Dr_Willis> databridge:  freenx/opennx is a lot faster  then vnc.
[09:26] <databridge> Dr_Willis, ok but why is vnc not working on linux?
[09:26] <Dr_Willis> databridge:  also for vnc - i always use some minimal desktop like icewm, or just fluxbox, not the full gnome (that helps a lot)

[09:26] <babau> hello
[09:26] <databridge> but when i use vnc on windows its fast
[09:26] <scriptwarlock> Dr_Willis, i already compiled success fuly the libccls but the other complained about this one : checking for CCL_init in -lccls... no
[09:26] <scriptwarlock> configure: error: please install libccls thats why i want to find out where to locate the libccls.so.0 with ls -l
[09:26] <Dr_Willis> databridge:  on a local lan. i have no real issues with vnc. freenx is faster i find however.
[09:26] <databridge> i give it a try
[09:26] <databridge> but the rdp client is also slower
[09:27] <Dr_Willis> scriptwarlock:  you dont use 'ls -l'  and if it wants a package/lib - then use the package managher to install it.
[09:27] <databridge> on different machines
[09:27] <xpurple> I use vnc
[09:27] <Dr_Willis> !find libccls
[09:27] <databridge> you can use it but windows is 10 times faster
[09:27]  * mneptok uses ssh
[09:27] <PureEvil> I cant get past my login screen, I enter my password....The screen goes black, then it brings me back to the login screen???
[09:27] <Dr_Willis> !find libccls.so
[09:27] <xpurple> wm2 for the win
[09:28] <Dr_Willis> scriptwarlock:  if its allready installed it should be in the LDCONFIG path somewhere  use the 'locate' command  to find where.
[09:28] <scriptwarlock> Dr_Willis, is it ls -l /usr/bin/lib? is that how we use?
[09:28] <Dr_Willis> scriptwarlock:  time to read up on bash basics and command line fundamentals if you dont even know how to use the 'ls' command.
[09:28] <Dr_Willis> scriptwarlock:  ls /path/to/see/
[09:28] <Dr_Willis> !shell | scriptwarlock
[09:29] <scriptwarlock> Dr_Willis, aw ok, yeah locate
[09:29] <wise_crypt> why my application keep changing its setting after reboot ( example: xhat : i added a new channel to favorite list, then exit and then reboot after the channel is not on the list, or the screen resolution keep changing to its default value or aqualung kept its song list to the first time i listed, and etc. etc )
[09:29] <wise_crypt> *after that
[09:29] <lamb> hey you are her..
[09:29] <lamb> good to see ya.
[09:29] <Dr_Willis> wise_crypt:  could be permissions set wrongly on files in your home dir. if youve ever ran those apps as root, that can happen.
[09:29] <lamb> @pureevil
[09:29] <PureEvil> hi
[09:30] <lamb> hi
[09:30] <lamb> post your quest
[09:30] <PureEvil> I cant get past my login screen
[09:30] <scriptwarlock> Dr_Willis, thanks why did i mak eit hard when locate is the right one to use.. thanks boss
[09:30] <PureEvil> I belive its something with the graphics
[09:30] <wise_crypt> Dr_Willis: never run sudo in ~ but i did change my DE from gnome to lubuntu-dekstop
[09:30] <PureEvil> nvidia 7300 gt on ubuntu 10.04
[09:31] <Dr_Willis> wise_crypt:  check ownership of all the files in home. Thats the only thing i can think of that miight be goofing up so many different apps
[09:31] <PureEvil> it worked fine yesterday, then ubuntu had some updates for me and I got this after the reboot
[09:31] <Dr_Willis> scriptwarlock:  locate is only as 'up to date' as the last time 'updatedb' got ran.   (it auto updates once a day i think)
[09:32] <scriptwarlock> Dr_Willis, yup
[09:34] <well_laid_lawn> PureEvil: if there was a kernel in the updates you'll have to install the nvidia drivers into it like you did before - or just boot into the older kernel
[09:34] <PureEvil> did both
[09:34] <PureEvil> same effect
[09:35] <PureEvil> used a old backup of xorg too
[09:35] <wise_crypt> Dr_Willis: ls -al > http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/DYWSuCuH
[09:35] <well_laid_lawn> PureEvil: time to read the X log then - does   ctrl+alt+f2   get you to a tty?
[09:36] <PureEvil> yes
[09:36] <well_laid_lawn> PureEvil: alt+f7   to get back
[09:36] <PureEvil> trying now
[09:37] <bayod> slt tt le monde
[09:37] <well_laid_lawn> PureEvil: login and do   cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | less   to read the log - q to quit it
[09:38] <well_laid_lawn> !fr | bayod
[09:38] <root> ciao
[09:38] <wise_crypt> Dr_Willis: any idea ?
[09:38] <X-Sleepy-X> So I've set up a chrooted SFTP account and now I wonder if there is any way for me to test how secure it is. I've disabled root login and changed the port number and when I log in to the account I doesn't seem to be able to go up to the parent folder but still I would like to test it more firmly.
[09:39] <X-Sleepy-X> How can I go about this?
[09:40] <X-Sleepy-X> And yeah, I've set the terminal to /bin/shell or something like that...
[09:40] <erebus> Is it better to use the netbook version of ubuntu on a laptop or the LTS, does it really matter much?
[09:40] <PureEvil> I dont see any errors
[09:40] <X-Sleepy-X> erebus: I use the desktop version on my Eee PC 900. I just fancy it...
[09:40] <PureEvil> a few warnings but they are for a font missing
[09:41] <erebus> k, thanks sleepy
[09:41] <well_laid_lawn> erebus: afaik the unr is set up for the netbooks h/ware so maybe the desktop one would be better but it is your choice
[09:41] <well_laid_lawn> !unr
[09:41] <erebus> Good to know, im not all sure about the hardware in the laptop so maybe your right
[09:42] <krdyt> anyone know why its not recommended 64bit 10.4 for daily use?
[09:42] <ncxcude> Dr_Willis: yes, it works.
[09:42] <X-Sleepy-X> So, did anyone have an answer for my question? :P
[09:42] <|_ocke> krdyt, cause not all programs are usable in 64bit
[09:42] <krdyt> ahh ok
[09:42] <krdyt> wasnt sure if it would tear stuff up
[09:43] <|_ocke> X-Sleepy-X, yes, the answer to your question is 42
[09:43] <|_ocke> X-Sleepy-X, also, don't listen to me
[09:43] <|_ocke> krdyt, but listen to me for your question
[09:43] <X-Sleepy-X> |_ocke: That's the answer to the meaning of life...
[09:43] <|_ocke> there are quite a few applications that just don't quite work right on ubuntu 64
[09:43] <krdyt> i just installed 10.4 but doesnt seem to work with bluetooth
[09:43] <|_ocke> X-Sleepy-X, no, it's the answer to the ultimate question of life, the universe, and everything
[09:44] <krdyt> i upgraded from 9.10
[09:44] <X-Sleepy-X> |_ocke: You're right...
[09:44] <|_ocke> krdyt, it may be that there isn't a 64 bit version of the driver for your bluetooth adapter
[09:44] <ncxcude> hi.. what if im using wine for Adobe Photoshop CS 4 is that, Ok....
[09:45] <well_laid_lawn> !appdb | ncxcude
[09:45] <Dr_Willis> ncxcude:  you tell  us.. is it ok? :)
[09:45] <Dr_Willis> ncxcude:  if it works.. great. if not see the wine appdatabase for tips
[09:45] <cyborgsmurf> Hi, is there a program for Ubuntu 9.10 where you can see who is using my wireless internet
[09:46] <Dr_Willis> cyborgsmurf:  give the channel details of how you set up the network.
[09:47] <Dr_Willis> ntop proberly gives the info and 1000000x more info then you want :)
[09:47] <cyborgsmurf> ...hmmm hard to explain
[09:48] <kantlivelong> hey all..i installed netbook remix 10.04.. how can i disable the netbook gui and go to normal deskto mode?....
[09:48] <rekoil> hello
[09:48] <cyborgsmurf> its through a router, however its directly connected to my desktop, and my gf can use the internet with wireless to her MacBook
[09:49] <tripelb> Hello! I had such a failure with the 10.04 liveCd. I wanted to install xchat, so I allowed the universe and multivers... and "it did stuff" and after a looooong while it told me I was _running out of space___  What in the World?? I am running a live CD. This is totally bogus. How does this happen? What can I do? Please help.
[09:49] <rekoil> thinking of switching from OS X to ubuntu, but looking for the configuration settings of core OS keybindings
[09:49] <ncxcude> Dr_Willis: ow... so we can't just install windows app in wine? sorry, im still confuse.... ubuntu/linux is so new to me...
[09:49] <PureEvil> back
[09:49] <rekoil> specifically close window, copy, paste, cut, etc
[09:49] <well_laid_lawn> kantlivelong: install ubuntu-desktop and select it at login maybe
[09:49] <kantlivelong> kk thx
[09:49] <rekoil> any way to move those to command-*
[09:49] <rekoil> instead of ctrl-*
[09:50] <rekoil> well... super-* i guess
[09:50] <krdyt> im trying 32 bit |_ocke, is it ok to dl the i386 instead of amd64 if i have an amd64 processor
[09:50] <|_ocke> krdyt, yeah
[09:50] <rekoil> it seems like with linux being so configurable, this shouldn't be a hard problem
[09:50] <|_ocke> the i386 will work with any 64 bit processor
[09:50] <krdyt> thanks
[09:51] <tripelb> Hello! I had such a failure with the 10.04 liveCd. I wanted to install xchat, so I allowed the universe and multivers... and "it did stuff" and after a looooong while it told me I was _running out of space___  What in the World?? I am running a live CD. This is totally bogus. How does this happen? What can I do? Please help.  (THIS WAS !)?)$)
[09:51] <rekoil> but i've been googling for like half an hour now, usually i'd have found something by now :P
[09:51] <tripelb> Hello! I had such a failure with the 10.04 liveCd. I wanted to install xchat, so I allowed the universe and multivers... and "it did stuff" and after a looooong while it told me I was _running out of space___  What in the World??

[09:51] <wise_crypt> Dr_Willis: should i do this chown -R wise:wise /home/wise
[09:51] <well_laid_lawn> rekoil: there's the option to change the keyboard shortcuts in the keyboard preferences menu afaik
[09:52] <rekoil> well_laid_lawn, thanks, but there are no settings for copy and paste there
[09:52] <rekoil> tripelb, the livecd has a limited amount of space
[09:52] <Dr_Willis> wise_crypt:  if you see any owned by root that might help. But otherwise  it proberly wont help
[09:52] <cyborgsmurf> Dr.willis : My point is to see if any neighbour around is using my connection
[09:52] <well_laid_lawn> rekoil: that's the file manager - look at it then - edit-prefs
[09:52] <Dr_Willis> ncxcude:  'cant just install' ? wine is made to install/run windows apps.. whats the  Point of confusion?
[09:52] <blu3t0oth> tripelb, It depends what u already installed on your live season.
[09:52] <rekoil> well_laid_lawn, i wanna change it system-wide though
[09:53] <rekoil> i thought copy and paste was defined globally?
[09:53] <PureEvil> smurf cant you just check the dhcp tables on your router?
[09:53] <rekoil> surely each application isn't individually defined
[09:53] <Dr_Willis> tripelb:  running a live cd? well you are insstalling stuff to 'ram'
[09:53] <cyborgsmurf> PureEvil : how do I do that?
[09:53] <PureEvil> what type of router?
[09:54] <PureEvil> linksys?
[09:54] <Dr_Willis> tripelb:  if you want to install stuff to a 'live setup' use some of the usb-creator tools and make a bootable flash drive with a persistant save/home file.
[09:54] <wise_crypt> Dr_Willis: have done *sudo chown -R wise:wise /home/wise rebooting now see it might help brb
[09:54] <cyborgsmurf> its from 3
[09:54] <PureEvil> ?
[09:55] <Dr_Willis> cyborgsmurf:  do a nmap of your network? :)
[09:55] <cyborgsmurf> Dr_Willis : nmap?
[09:55] <Dr_Willis> cyborgsmurf:  nmap scans a network. You may find some machines on the netwiork that shouldent be there
[09:56] <cyborgsmurf> you mean type the command in the Terminal?
[09:56] <Dr_Willis> cyborgsmurf:  you are using a wireless router? or you some how set uop the pc to accecpt/forward/share incoming connections?
[09:56] <cyborgsmurf> Yeah I guess
[09:56] <Dr_Willis> 'yea i guess' what?
[09:56] <rekoil> anybody got any idea regarding remapping copy and paste?
[09:56] <PureEvil> lol
[09:57] <temp> yesterday, i edited the olduser name to new username on /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow
[09:57] <cyborgsmurf> But my router has its own powersource
[09:57] <rocket16> I am making free PDF Book on The Complete Volume of Strategies of "Age of Mythology Titans" using OpenOffice. But, to my surprise, when I copy images from Browser and paste them on Writer, most remain blank, and do not synchronize the picture from web. Most of the earlier times, the photos used to get loaded. How can I make it work? I know that downloading/saving images and inserting them can be done, but for several images, that is troublesome).
[09:57] <PureEvil> Smurf is there a wire going from your pc to your router?
[09:57] <temp> now I can't get log to the newuser
[09:57] <Dr_Willis> cyborgsmurf:  huh? If you are using a wireless router. Checks its configs/web interface and logs to see what machines are accessing it. Check the dhcp client/server logs on the router.
[09:57] <temp> it say .ICAUTHORITY faild
[09:57] <cyborgsmurf> so even if I turn off my computer, my gf can still use internet on her Mac
[09:57] <temp> Gnome faild
[09:57] <cyborgsmurf> PureEvil : yes there is
[09:58] <Dr_Willis> cyborgsmurf:  if you want to secure the wireless network. pick a good password, hide the ssid, and perhaps change the password every so often
[09:58] <temp> can i get it back?
[09:58] <PureEvil> if other people in your house use the wifi let them know you did that
[09:58] <PureEvil> lol
[09:59]  * rocket16 is a great fan of Pidgin
[09:59] <rekoil> wpa/wpa2 with a non-dictionary password such as s*5H3da%la& would be almost impossible to break
[09:59]  * PureEvil likes pidgin too, but cant get to his desktop to use it =)
[10:00] <cyborgsmurf> Dr_Willis : Yeah I could do it... but what was that about nmap?
[10:00] <PureEvil> type nmap in you terminal
[10:00] <Dr_Willis> !info nmap | cyborgsmurf
[10:00] <PureEvil> you problably dont have it installed so you will have to sudo apt-get install nmap
[10:00] <cyborgsmurf> PureEvil : yeah of course :)
[10:00] <Dr_Willis> cyborgsmurf:  if a pc is connected to your local lan. youi can scan the lan
[10:00] <PureEvil> then type nmap
[10:00] <tripelb> Dr_Willis, I just was using the liveCD to check out some hard drives. Then I was going to copy an audio CD and before I could 10.04 went bad on me, everything but the background vanished. I was goint to start it up again, get xchat, report the problem and copy the cd. But NOOO it had to have repositories to find xchat, NOO I clicked update before apply and the ground shifted under my feet.
[10:01] <tripelb> It ran out of space.
[10:01] <cyborgsmurf> PureEvil : thank you
[10:01] <Dr_Willis> tripelb:  so?
[10:01] <PureEvil> np
[10:01] <tripelb> I was amazed that the civeCd could be so flighty! So much "not ready for primetime"
[10:01] <Dr_Willis> tripelb:  if you want to report a bug theres the bug web sites.
[10:01] <cousin_mario> hello
[10:01] <cyborgsmurf> Dr_Willis : allright, thank you
[10:01] <well_laid_lawn> temp: log into ctrl+alt+f2   and do   rm -v .ICE*   then do alt+f7
[10:01] <tau> hey, how can I get help for burning dvd cds ?
[10:01] <cousin_mario> can you run a 32bit plugin in 64bit firefox?
[10:02] <gustavo> tau:
[10:02] <tau> gustavo:  yes
[10:02] <tripelb> flakey I mean, like my typing. I wouldnt know what to report. Everything vanished except the background. twice. Live CD plus xchat and chrome. Go figure Dr_Willis
[10:02] <gustavo> do you wanna burn a cd??
[10:03] <Dr_Willis> tripelb:  no idea. could be for many differant reasons,
[10:03] <Dr_Willis> installing stuff on a live cd, can fill up the ram real fast.
[10:03] <tau> gustavo:  well, i have a dvd, a movie, a .iso for a SO, i want to burn the dvd to be watched on a machine dvd, and to use the dvd to boot with the SO, can I do it ?
[10:03] <Dr_Willis> makign a swap partion can help a great deal
[10:03] <Jordan_U> tripelb: How much ram do you have?
[10:03] <tripelb> thanks for listening. I'll go back to checking my drives. I ditched the computer that froze. Now I am back to the dell, I can install window and !! my webcam will sork and I can do skype. And have an ubuntu partition for being fireproof. lol.
[10:04]  * Dr_Willis remasters his ubuntu cd's to include apps he likes
[10:04] <tripelb> Jordan_U, I have 1.2 or 1.3 G of ram.
[10:04] <PureEvil> anyone else have any suggestions on my problem?
[10:04] <PureEvil> cant get to my desktop
[10:04] <tau> hey Dr_Willis
[10:04] <Dr_Willis> tau:  hmm?
[10:04] <rekoil> PureEvil, what was it?
[10:05] <tripelb> dr_willis, I'll get back to you on that custom liveCD after I get That Ponyo Disk copied off the wubi partition. That will be the last Wubi I save on.
[10:05] <tau> Dr_Willis:  nothing
[10:05] <Spirited_Away> hello
[10:05] <tau> Dr_Willis:  just a salute
[10:05] <PureEvil> I get to y login screen (thats not even normal) and when I enter the password the screen goes black and brings me back to the login screen
[10:05]  * Dr_Willis salutes
[10:05] <Spirited_Away> i need a little help
[10:05] <rekoil> y login?
[10:06] <Dr_Willis> PureEvil:  as a test , you could make a new user via the console and try logging in as them
[10:06] <PureEvil> this is true in failsafe, an old kernel, and an old xorg.conf
[10:06] <kantlivelong> hmmm.. i installed ubuntu-desktop but cannot seem to use it :(
[10:06] <Albi> whats wrong with it?
[10:06] <rekoil> kantlivelong, the package ubuntu-desktop?
[10:06] <Dr_Willis> kantlivelong:  at the LOGIN screen there should be a menu item to select gnome as the desktop.
[10:06] <PureEvil> I reinstalled the nvidia drivers a few times now
[10:06] <Dr_Willis> kantlivelong:  how elsea re you trying to 'use' it ?
[10:06] <PureEvil> did a purge of nvidia and reinstalled
[10:06] <well_laid_lawn> kantlivelong: does the unr have a session option at login? - select it there
[10:06] <Dr_Willis> PureEvil:  if it was the drivers.. I dont think you sould even get a GDM login screen
[10:07] <kantlivelong> Dr_Willis: i see failsafe,xterm, Netbook, Netbook 2d
[10:07] <PureEvil> use the install from the distro and the nvidia site
[10:07] <kantlivelong> no regular GNOME
[10:07] <well_laid_lawn> o
[10:07] <Dr_Willis> kantlivelong:  restart the X server. There should be gnome in that menu
[10:07] <kantlivelong> did.. rebooted
[10:07] <Dr_Willis> kantlivelong:  'sudo service gdm restart'  then look again
[10:07] <kantlivelong> :(
[10:07] <kantlivelong> kk brb
[10:07] <rekoil> kantlivelong, run tasksel from the terminal and select (using spacebar) ubuntu-desktop, press tab and then enter
[10:07] <Spirited_Away> So. I upgraded to 10.04. I use two monitors. Before, when I plug the second display and enable it from the nvidia settings i had them separated somehow, Now it is not working. When I want a window to be fullscreen it spreads over the two monitors - which is frustrating. And the taskbar lays in the middle of the two
[10:07] <Spirited_Away> anyone with the same issues ?
[10:07] <PureEvil> and still no luck
[10:08] <kantlivelong> hmm there it is.. missed it
[10:08] <kantlivelong> thx
[10:08] <kantlivelong> :P
[10:08] <Dr_Willis> Spirited_Away:  enable 'twinview' then restart the X server. is how i normally do it.
[10:08] <kantlivelong> brb
[10:08] <rekoil> PureEvil, when did it start doing this?
[10:08] <Spirited_Away> Dr_Willis, it is enabled already
[10:08] <Dr_Willis> Spirited_Away:  enable twinview -> save the xorg.conf, restart X.   You missed somthing im thinking
[10:08] <Dr_Willis> Spirited_Away:  if you just 'apply' then apps that ran BEFOR the change. can get confused.
[10:08] <temp> is it even possible to change the name of the home folder?
[10:09] <Dr_Willis> temp:  you mean /home/ ? or what exactly
[10:09] <Spirited_Away> oki will save it to the conf and retart the X server, I will beback,
[10:09] <temp> ys
[10:09] <temp> /home/olduser
[10:09] <Dr_Willis> temp:  You can miove users to other /home/whatever dirs if you wanted...
[10:09] <rekoil> temp, "usermod <username> -d /path/to/new/homedir
[10:09] <Dr_Willis> but ive not bothered in ages..
[10:09] <rekoil> temp, "usermod <username> -d /path/to/new/homedir"
[10:09] <PureEvil> rekoil: after some updates I did yesterday
[10:10] <PureEvil> ubuntu updates it suggested for me
[10:10] <temp> not exactly
[10:10] <temp> i have /home/olduer
[10:10] <rekoil> any non-standard repos?
[10:10] <temp> i created a new user
[10:10] <temp> but i want the home folder to be /home/olduser
[10:10] <temp> but want to rename /olduser to /newuser
[10:10] <temp> without having to copy the contents
[10:11] <purplefool> hey, i am having troubles with my graphics since the new login.  would like to post the error message so you all could take a look...what is the posting webpage?
[10:11] <PureEvil> the only other thing I could think of is the .profile
[10:11] <rekoil> temp, so you want to move the contents of a folder to a new folder without moving the contents of a folder?
[10:11] <rekoil> be more specific so we can help you
[10:11] <temp> Irekoil yes, if possible
[10:11] <well_laid_lawn> !paste | purplefool
[10:11] <rekoil> it's impossible to move the contents of a folder without moving the contents of a folder...
[10:11] <gustavo> ???
[10:12] <gustavo> :(  ???
[10:12] <llutz> rekoil: mv folder/ newfolder/
[10:12] <PureEvil> they only things I have been messing with the past few days are compiz, screenlets, and byrel for compize
[10:12] <purplefool> ubottu:  thx
[10:12] <rekoil> yes, but then you're moving the contents of the folder
[10:12] <llutz> rekoil: no, ou just rename the folder
[10:12] <rekoil> he said he didn't want to move the contents of the folder, but then he did want to move the contents of the folder
[10:12] <rekoil> and i got confused
[10:13] <rekoil> well yeah, sure, but to the same effect
[10:13] <unop> i think he just wants to change the homedir of the new user - keeping it where it is
[10:13] <temp> ok, I have olduser user with home dir /home/olduser , i just want to change the name of the olduser to newuser but want all the settings, so currently my newuser also points to the same old olduser dir which is what I want, but could i rename the home folder of the olduser to the new user
[10:13] <rekoil> right
[10:13] <Gatta_Negra> hillo, I am spirited_away
[10:13] <temp> i guess one option is to cp olduser newuser
[10:13] <unop> temp, just change newuser's homedir location to /home/olduser - that's it.
[10:14] <rekoil> temp, type this in the terminal "usermod olduser -l newuser -d /home/newuser"
[10:14] <temp> ok
[10:14] <rekoil> that will change the login for olduser to newuser
[10:14] <unop> temp, you'll need to adjust permissions, etc tho - but you won't have to move/rename it
[10:14] <Gatta_Negra> Dr_Willis, what you said did the trick, thank you , It is strange as before I did not need to use the "save to X conf" ption...
[10:14] <rekoil> and will also change where olduser looks for it's home folder
[10:14] <purplefool> can someone look here http://paste.ubuntu.com/445514/ and help me figure out why my graphics are not accelerated and not even able to display the login screen?
[10:15] <rekoil> you'll have to manually move the home folder
[10:15] <rekoil> using mv /home/olduser /home/newuser
[10:15] <PureEvil> =(
[10:15] <Dr_Willis> Gatta_Negra:  twinview has to be ran by the server, not a 'per user' setting for it to work properly. yes. you can  turn it on/off via apply. but  apps can be confuised (like the panel) when you do that.
[10:15] <rekoil> whoah, theres a ubuntu pastebin!
[10:15] <unop> rekoil, there might be a reason he doesn't want to move the homedir -- keeping paths around for applications,etc.
[10:16] <rekoil> use a symlink
[10:16] <rekoil> it's dirty
[10:16] <Dr_Willis> Gatta_Negra:  i think if its 'on' by default, and a user turns it off on a per user basis - it works 'better'
[10:16] <rekoil> but would work
[10:16] <Dr_Willis> symlinks are fun :)
[10:16] <Dr_Willis> and be a easier fix
[10:16] <Gatta_Negra> Dr_Willis, I did not know this. thank you again. May the light be with you.
[10:16] <rekoil> ln -s /home/newuser /home/olduser
[10:16] <rekoil> or
[10:16] <rekoil> as i would do it
[10:17] <Zeu5> my printscreen button doesnt work inubuntu. how do i do a prt screen?
[10:17] <rekoil> mv /home/olduser /home/newuser
[10:17] <rekoil> then
[10:17] <rekoil> ln -s /home/olduser /home/newuser
[10:17] <lolmaus_melven> I've got two network adapters on my motherboard. I can make to work only one of them. How do i investigate the problem?
[10:18] <rekoil> unop, also, pretty much all apps would have been using ~ rather than /home/olduser anyway
[10:18] <Dr_Willis> lolmaus_melven:  what are you trying to do with the 2nd one?
[10:18] <purplefool> is there anyone out there also having troubles with ATI chips after an upgrade to 10.04?  this is my only problem with the upgrade!
[10:18] <rekoil> so there's no need to keep the old folder if he's changing login and home dir
[10:18] <unop> rekoil, and how do you know this? that's such a big presumption.
[10:19] <rekoil> unop, i don't know this, but in a perfect world, they would be
[10:19] <rekoil> :D
[10:19] <PureEvil> ok I give up.......whats the easiest way to do a fresh install
[10:19] <unop> rekoil, welcome to #ubuntu!!
[10:19] <PureEvil> without a cd
[10:19] <lolmaus_melven> Dr_Willis: one is for LAN connection, the other on is for direct web connection... It just won't ping the gateway :(
[10:19] <rekoil> in a perfect world i would also be able to change the bindings of copy/cut/paste
[10:19] <rekoil> ...
[10:20]  * PureEvil is sad because nobody knows how to fix his problem =(
[10:20] <myke5161> Hey everyone
[10:20] <rekoil> PureEvil, fix mine and i'll do my best to fix yours!
[10:20] <PureEvil> whats yours lol
[10:20] <rekoil> remapping core system key bindings
[10:20] <rekoil> like ctrl-w, ctrl-c, etc
[10:21] <rekoil> to super-w and super-c
[10:21] <rekoil> etc
[10:21] <Dr_Willis> In a perfect world. you wouldent need to :)

[10:25] <rekoil> oh

[10:27] <FlameTai1> Is anyone here having a problem enabling Visual Effects on Ubuntu 10.04 with a NVidia GeForce 8400 GS 512mb RAM video card???
[10:27] <opti___> is there some method for scanning for new hardware post install, or does the kernel pick it up and load the module?
[10:27] <Flannel> ncxcude: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP  will walk you through setting it up
[10:28] <Dr_Willis> opti___:  it does it automatically for the most part
[10:28] <rekoil> opti___, if it has the ability to use the hardware, it'll do it automagically yes
[10:29] <FlameTai1> Or can anyone help me getting Visual Effects for Ubuntu 10.04 I have a NVidia GeForce 8400 GS 512 RAM video card, when I enable Visual Effects my screen flashes a few times then I get a pop up saying "Desktop effects could not be enabled"
[10:29] <Dr_Willis> opti___:  some things like printers might need some tweaking. or if you switch video cards that may need a little hand work
[10:29] <rekoil> if it's something like a brother printer for example, the actual hardware will technically be detected, but it will not know how to use it until you add a driver
[10:29] <Dr_Willis> FlameTai1:  you did install the proper drivers using the 'hardware-drivers' tool ?
[10:29] <rekoil> ...like Dr_Willis said
[10:29] <sreeju> please anybody help me
[10:30] <Dr_Willis> For my brother printer - i had to install a few packages i recall.
[10:30] <FlameTai1> Dr_Willis: I used the propriety drivers same result, just installed the latest from NVidia's site, same result
[10:30] <sreeju> what is in packages.ubuntu.com
[10:30] <Dr_Willis> Theres so many different printers out noqw a days..  its amazing  that so many different drivers are there by default
[10:30] <vinny74> Ciao a tutti :P
[10:30] <sreeju> can we download packages from there
[10:30] <tic^> I'm having a problem with lucid changing my bios time for some reason, 10.04 set my bios time ahead by 4 hours everytime I boot into it even after I change it back to EST. I didn't have this problem with 9.10. I also did reset the Date and Time to update to EST and still the problem persist. I also had trouble gettin ginto my F2 bios setting, had to clobber grub2 to get F2 back. Anyone else noticed this happening?
[10:30] <Dr_Willis> FlameTai1:  i would say check the forums. My 3 nvidia machines work fine  with the hardware-drivers packages
[10:30] <rekoil> FlameTai1, are there no restricted drivers popping up for you?
[10:31] <Dr_Willis> sreeju:  one normally uses the packag3 manager tools and lets them download what they need
[10:31] <hardwired> 'llo. How do I add/remove things to start at boot, manually via console?
[10:31] <rekoil> sreeju, all that is available from packages.ubuntu.com, is available from apt-get in the terminal
[10:32] <rekoil> but yeah, you could download packages from there or even from packages.debian.com
[10:32] <FlameTai1> rekoil: It said they were restricted when I first installed, I then updated to the latest NVidia drivers from NVidia.com and they were no longer restricted and I still have the same results
[10:32] <mouse> I can't find pcsx in the package manager.  I know it used to be there before upgrading to 10.04 but it's not anymore.  Anyone know how to find it?
[10:32] <sreeju> but while downloading by software centre or terminal i cant pause no
[10:32] <rekoil> restricted != not available
[10:32] <rekoil> restricted is a repository
[10:33] <sreeju> if it is large size what to do
[10:33] <rekoil> basically, they were proprietary nvidia drivers from the restricted repository
[10:33] <rekoil> did you try them from hardware-drivers, or did you just install nvidia official drivers right away?
[10:33] <sreeju> cant i download packages through my browser
[10:34] <rekoil> sreeju, yes, but why?
[10:34] <opti___> hmmm, that sucks then. no wireless support for this card.
[10:34] <loveyj> hello
[10:34] <rekoil> you have ubuntu software center and synaptic that will do it for you graphically
[10:34] <sreeju> please tell me how
[10:34] <rekoil> and apt-get from the terminal
[10:34] <rekoil> sreeju, click on applications up to the left on your screen
[10:35] <rekoil> then click Ubuntu Software Center
[10:35] <FlameTai1> rekoil: Any idea???
[10:35] <FlameTai1> Oh
[10:35] <Zeu5> hi all, am a 3 day old ubuntu user. 20+yrs windows user previously. how do i associate .php files in ubuntu with my IDE?
[10:35] <FlameTai1> rekoil: I tried the stock ones that come with Ubuntu yes
[10:35] <FlameTai1> rekoil: Same result so I tried the official, same thing
[10:35] <rekoil> i honestly can't think of why the restricted drivers wouldn't work
[10:36] <rekoil> is this on a stock ubuntu installation?
[10:36] <rekoil> opti___, what wireless card?
[10:36] <FlameTai1> rekoil: I used Wubi to install from Windows XP
[10:36] <rekoil> FlameTai1, that shouldn't make any difference
[10:36] <FlameTai1> rekoil:  Upgraded from Ubuntu 8.04 to Ubuntu 10.04
[10:37] <rekoil> ah
[10:37] <FlameTai1> ?
[10:37] <rekoil> was it working fine in 8.04?
[10:37] <FlameTai1> rekoil: Never tried it in 8.04
[10:37] <rekoil> i've always found updating to bring problems
[10:37] <FlameTai1> You think that could be it?
[10:37] <rekoil> but it should still be possible obviously
[10:38] <rekoil> it definitely could be, i wont say that it is
[10:38] <sreeju> i liked installing packages from software centre but what i do if the size of packages is high
[10:38] <opti___> Network controller [0280]: RaLink Device [1814:3062]
[10:38] <sreeju> there is no pause option available
[10:38] <Astyx> the size doesn't matter sreeju ;) or does it? oo
[10:38] <rekoil> opti___, di you know exactly which model you have?
[10:38] <domjohnson> Hello
[10:38] <rekoil> do*
[10:38] <Ubuno> Bonjour à tous
[10:39] <rekoil> sreeju, what do you mean "size of the package is high"?
[10:39] <FlameTai1> rekoil: Should I uninstall and attempt to install 8.04, if it works then find a way to create a boot cd for 10.04?
[10:39] <domjohnson> Every time I boot up, I have to go into GParted and set my swap partition as "swapon"
[10:39] <domjohnson> Can anyone help with the above?
[10:39] <opti___> as in brand/model, Tenda W322P v2.0
[10:39] <sreeju> i have slow internet ,so size of the packages is problem
[10:39] <xylander> #ubuntu.pl
[10:39] <rekoil> FlameTai1, i wouldn't go as far as to completely reinstall, do you have any spare harddrives?
[10:40] <rekoil> if so, replace the current one and try a new installation on a new harddrive
[10:40] <well_laid_lawn> FlameTai1: you could try in terminal   sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade   to see if it pulls in any missing packages
[10:40] <rww> xylander: /join #ubuntu-pl
[10:40] <FlameTai1> rekoil: I have a 2GB flash drive?
[10:41] <arand> Zeu5: If you go to open with - other application, does it list your IDE?
[10:41] <rekoil> sreeju, apt-get/synaptic/ubuntu software center, all suppre resuming started downloads
[10:41] <FlameTai1> rekoil: would that work?
[10:41] <rekoil> support*
[10:41] <FlameTai1> well_laid_lawn: Checked, all is good.
[10:41] <Zeu5> arand: hi it does not list my iDE though it is working just fine in ubuntu
[10:41] <rekoil> FlameTai1, it should, try with the startup disk creator
[10:42] <sreeju> rekoil, i didnt get u
[10:42] <rekoil> under system>administration>startup disk creator
[10:42] <Zeu5> arand: i will be very grateful for any help given
[10:42] <arand> Zeu5: Which application is it?
[10:42] <Zeu5> komodo ide
[10:42] <rekoil> sreeju, i don't know what i meant, but a large package will be large no matter where you download it from
[10:43] <Zeu5> itis currently in a folder under /home/myusername/Komodo-IDE-5
[10:43] <Zeu5> shd i move it to /opt?
[10:43] <rekoil> the thing is, when you download packages from the web browser, it doesn't take into account dependencies you don't have installed sreeju
[10:43] <rekoil> whereas if you do it through ubuntu software center, apt-get or synaptic, it does
[10:44] <rekoil> of course you can manually download the dependencies as well
[10:44] <rekoil> but it would take a LOT more time
[10:44] <rekoil> i'd suggest using ubuntu software center or synaptic
[10:44] <rekoil> but the choice is yours
[10:44] <rekoil> there is nothing stopping you from doing it manually
[10:45] <sreeju> ok can u give me a link to study the commands used in terminal
[10:46] <arand> Zeu5: Hmm, that I think should not make a difference there, I guess you might have to associate it manually, if you go to the list of programs again, and use a custom command, something like "/home/user/Komodo-IDE-5/komodo.bin" maybe?
[10:46] <rekoil> if you have ubuntu, you already have all the info you need
[10:46] <Zeu5> arand: the application is komodo ide. its currently in /home/myusername/Komodo-IDE-5 should i move i to /opt
[10:46] <rekoil> just type "man apt-get"
[10:46] <zver_> :q
[10:46] <Zeu5> arand: sorry. just saw ur reply.
[10:47] <opti___> hehe, i just used a dental mirror to read the chip, ralink rt3062f
[10:47] <sreeju> i am in ubuntu 10.4 but my gwibber is not at all working
[10:47] <sreeju> what can i do
[10:48] <MrSpring> hi.. who was having trouble with wireless? Still there?
[10:48] <opti___> yeah
[10:48] <MrSpring> try...
[10:48] <MrSpring> Step1: add "blacklist rt2800usb" to: /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
[10:48] <Zeu5> arand: it worked with thhe custom command. thanks
[10:49] <MrSpring> Step2: add "rt2870sta" to: /etc/modules
[10:49] <rekoil> MrSpring, it was opti___
[10:49] <MrSpring> Step3: Reboot.
[10:49] <arand> Zeu5: :)  A bit strange that it failed to associate itself when it installed...
[10:49] <rekoil> sreeju, i would suggest you use Ubuntu Software Center as opposed to the terminal
[10:50] <rekoil> he has a rt3062f though
[10:50] <MrSpring> [thanks... opti_'s still hrere
[10:50] <rekoil> yes he is
[10:50] <Dr_Willis> rekoil:  theres secial 'apt://' type urls that do trigger the package manager :) so  Ive rarely needed to dowload somthing from a web site to install it.
[10:50] <rekoil> i always use the terminal
[10:50] <ohir> where and how to fix mimetypes broken by instaling adobe reader?
[10:51] <Dr_Willis> rekoil:  also if you download a .deb you can use 'gksudo gdebi whhatever.deb' and it will check for dependencies and install them also.
[10:51] <rekoil> hell, i type my reports in the terminal using LaTeX :P
[10:51] <Dr_Willis> rekoil:  You sick little puppy! :)
[10:51] <rekoil> Dr_Willis, or dpkg -i whhatever.deb
[10:51] <Dr_Willis> rekoil:  i did that years ago.
[10:51]  * PureEvil gave up and is doing a fresh install
[10:51] <sreeju> please answer this
[10:51] <Dr_Willis> i dont find dpkg -i pulling in the other dependencies..
[10:51] <rekoil> PureEvil, just keep your home partition
[10:51] <opti___> so that chip has no driver yet i take it?
[10:51] <Zeu5> arand: oh no i have to right click > open with everytime
[10:52] <rekoil> you did have a separate home partition right? :P
[10:52] <sreeju> my gwibber is not working
[10:52] <PureEvil> nope just gonna start over
[10:52] <Zeu5> arand: it does not auto open with Komodo IDE everytime
[10:52] <rekoil> hehe
[10:52] <PureEvil> I idnt have anything important
[10:52] <rekoil> good luck!
[10:52] <arand> Zeu5: Go to properties
[10:52] <PureEvil> I just made the switch like a month ago
[10:52] <sreeju> how to correct it
[10:52] <rekoil> sreeju, i don't even know what gwibber is, so you're gonna have to find someone else there
[10:53] <PureEvil> what is the best option for a laptop?
[10:53] <arand> Zeu5: for the file, you should be able to set the "default program for these types of files there from a list of alternatives, where your custom command should be present"
[10:53] <PureEvil> what distro and what version
[10:53] <PureEvil> gnome or kde
[10:53] <PureEvil> lol
[10:53] <rekoil> i just use ubuntu 10.04 on my macbook pro
[10:53] <sreeju> then somebody other answer me
[10:53] <rekoil> oh
[10:53] <rekoil> meh, depends what you like better
[10:54] <PureEvil> I dont know what I like
[10:54] <rekoil> kde 4 looks interesting, but i've been a gnome man all my life
[10:54] <arand> Zeu5: (right-click on the file - properties - open with)
[10:54] <blu3t0oth> KDE!!!111eleven
[10:54] <PureEvil> became a linux user a month ago
[10:54] <PureEvil> gnome has some cool effects
[10:54] <blu3t0oth> No, what is better for you?
[10:54] <rekoil> amarok is nice though
[10:54] <Zeu5> arand: there is no such thing. there is a remember this application checkbox. but that didnt work. i did it twice, and now komodo appears twice inside the list of applications. i got some applications appearing like 5 or 6 times in the list of possible applications
[10:54] <blu3t0oth> KDE is a effect..
[10:54] <PureEvil> so far I only know gnome
[10:55] <rekoil> i believe compiz can work with kde
[10:55] <PureEvil> maybe I will try ubuntu KDE on the laptop
[10:55] <rekoil> but don't quote me on that
[10:55] <blu3t0oth> Did you tried XFCE?
[10:55] <PureEvil> and keep gnome on the desktop
[10:55] <rekoil> PureEvil, you can always install the kde desktop on ubuntu
[10:55] <rekoil> and switch between them
[10:55] <PureEvil> tried that
[10:55] <PureEvil> didnt work out so well
[10:55] <PureEvil> lol
[10:55] <Archy> Gnome is better than KDE.
[10:55] <rekoil> haha
[10:55] <bodzilla> lxde is not bad
[10:56] <rekoil> and yeah between kde3 and gnome i'd go with gnome
[10:56] <rekoil> but like i said, kde4 looks interesting
[10:56] <PureEvil> It was an epic fail
[10:56] <Archy> KDE4 is worse than Gnome.
[10:56] <Archy> Gnome Shell is a failure, though.
[10:56] <rekoil> Archy, it's a choice thing
[10:56] <robin_rytich> apples are worse than oranges
[10:56] <PureEvil> got a black screen and didnt know about ctrl alt f7
[10:56] <PureEvil> lol
[10:56] <blu3t0oth> PureEvil, did you used kdm or gdm?
[10:56] <Archy> rekoil: yeah, opinions _are_ subjective.
[10:56] <rekoil> i mean, i can't go around exclaiming "Apples are better than oranges!"
[10:56] <Archy> xdm ftwe
[10:56] <FlameTai1> I wish the Visual Effects in Gnome would work with NVidia GeForce 8400GS serie cards =|
[10:56] <blu3t0oth> xD
[10:57] <PureEvil> no idea blu3tooth
[10:57] <Dr_Willis> rekoil:  i like banannannananaas
[10:57] <wise_crypt> !best
[10:57] <blu3t0oth> hmm
[10:57] <PureEvil> but its not needed
[10:57] <rekoil> Dr_Willis, WELL FUCK YOU, APPLES ARE BETTER!
[10:57] <PureEvil> just put one on the laptop and onedesktop on the
[10:57] <PureEvil> wtf is with this stupid laptop!!!!
[10:57] <rekoil> PureEvil, it's envious of my sleep and sexy apple laptop
[10:57] <PureEvil> it randomly jumps me into the middle of the sentence while i'm typing
[10:57] <opti___> hmmm
[10:58] <wise_crypt> !language | rekoil
[10:58] <rekoil> true fact: this laptop came straight from steve jobs arse
[10:58] <rekoil> kk

[11:03] <cyborgsmurf3> what is the syntax for scanning my own network in nmap ubuntu?
[11:04] <atcho> help: how can I use `xlockmore' as the screen-saver app? (ubuntu 9.10, xfce)
[11:04] <BR41N> u nedd to do this nmap -v 192.168.1.1
[11:04] <BR41N> or install netcat
[11:04] <BR41N> jimius use nmap
[11:04] <BR41N> leaning the manual first
[11:04] <cyborgsmurf3> BR41N : netcat?
[11:04] <broy_> nmap -sP 192.168.1-255 checks hosts for beeing up
[11:05] <purplefool> ubottu: you gave me some advice about understanding my ati graphics problem but my computer was just beginning to crash and i never got into what you said...do you remember?
[11:05] <BR41N> cuborgsmurf3 i know this command 2
[11:05] <Lazy^> broy_: why dont use arp ?
[11:05] <BR41N> because i use netcat and nmap
[11:06] <BR41N> and nessus
[11:06] <Lazy^> faster to check with arp, the hosts on the network...
[11:06] <rww> purplefool: http://paste.ubuntu.com/445530/
[11:06] <broy_> Lazy^ cause nmap feels more evil to me
[11:06] <BR41N> yes arp ys good
[11:06] <BR41N> 2
[11:06] <purplefool> can someone look here http://paste.ubuntu.com/445514/ and see if they can help me with my ati problem?
[11:06] <sandking> hi
[11:06] <purplefool> rww: thx...just dug it out too...writing to bots now, what is my world coming to...?!?
[11:07] <BR41N> hi sandking welcome to the best please
[11:07] <broy_> Lazy^ arp -a doesnt show alle hosts on my subnet
[11:07] <BR41N>  yes broy
[11:07] <BR41N> arp can du it
[11:07] <BR41N> but using namo is more simple
[11:08] <sandking> i got some strange issue - when i shut down Mint and later try to startup my machine monitor doesn't seem to get signal
[11:08] <broy_> http://nopaste.info/b223c77868.html
[11:08] <sandking> i restart computer the hard way several times, cut the power and such
[11:08] <sandking> and sometimes it helps
[11:08] <sandking> it doesn't always occur but once a week i think
[11:08] <Dr_Willis> sandking:  Mint has its own support channel.
[11:08] <sandking> damn
[11:08] <sandking> sorry - i thought i was typing on mint channel
[11:08] <sandking> :/
[11:08] <Dr_Willis> :P
[11:08] <BR41N> yes go to mint support channel
[11:09] <sandking> i always pop up here with more ubuntu generic questions
[11:09] <Dr_Willis> thats cheating. :)
[11:09] <sandking> so noone encountered such thing with ubuntu? :]
[11:09] <sandking> if i can't get answer there i come here :]
[11:10] <Dr_Willis> From a powerd off state - sometimes the gfx dont come up sandking ? that is weird
[11:10] <Archy>  sandking I have when I try to change from tty1 to tty7 or 8
[11:10] <Archy> Sometimes it locks up.
[11:10] <Archy> So I need to reset it.
[11:10] <sandking> yeah, something like that
[11:10] <sandking> but i hear that startup is proceeding as different hums of hd i hear
[11:11] <sandking> but i fear that such resets might harm the hardware
[11:11] <FlameTai1> Dr_Willis: My restart/shutdown functions don't work they just hang lawl know any fix?
[11:11] <purplefool> sandking:  are you sure your graphics card is getting enough power?
[11:12] <sandking> purplefool: i got dual boot with windows and didn't had such issues
[11:12] <sandking> and yes, i think so - i paid for this workstation in store so i assume they know what they're doing
[11:12] <Dr_Willis> FlameTai1:  dont 'work' as in they dont power off? or whate exactly?
[11:13] <purplefool> sandking:  understood.  just checking the age of your system/config.  if you are sure then have no idea with your problem.  is that every time?
[11:13] <sandking> purplefool: no, once a week maybe
[11:13] <Salah> I have installed Ubuntu, and sometimes everything freezes for some seconds, applications won't answer, new applications won't start etc. Any idea what can be wrong? Display drivers is installed and works
[11:13] <Dr_Willis> sandking:  if its not doing it every reboot.. that is weird. You could ssh in and look at the logs. and try for example restarting the gdm service, or other tricks
[11:13] <sandking> and then restarting by reset doesn't always work so i just turn off all power support
[11:13] <purplefool> that is how my 2 hardware crashes began...
[11:14] <sandking> i hear that something is going on and then i'm forced to pull the plug and it hurts
[11:14] <purplefool> Salah:  reinstall.  that happened with me and a reinstall was the only way to get rid of it.
[11:15] <Dr_Willis> sandking:  learn to ssh in and  see whats starting . and use  the shutdown command if you can.
[11:15] <Salah> purplefool, reinstalled 3 times, still the same problem
[11:15] <sandking> Dr_Willis: you mean remote control?
[11:15] <well_laid_lawn> Salah: is the cpu maxed out when it happens?
[11:16] <Dr_Willis> sandking:  yes. Use some other pc on the network,. ssh in,  if you CAN ssh in, that would point to a gfx issue.  if yiou cant even ssh in. that would point to a deeper problem
[11:16] <purplefool> sandking:  if you can 'hear' a difference then there is really something with the hardware...i would say at least.  have you tried to replace hardware lately?  or just to test?
[11:16] <FlameTai1> Dr_Willis: Gets to the Ubuntu shutting down screen, and hangs
[11:16] <Salah> well_laid_lawn, how can I see that?
[11:16] <sandking> purplefool: it's brand new - about 2 months
[11:17] <purplefool> sandking:  and it has been doing this since the beginning?
[11:17] <sandking> purplefool: yes
[11:17] <sandking> purplefool: but never on windows
[11:17] <well_laid_lawn> Salah: use top in a terminal, the system monitor, have conky running ...
[11:17] <purplefool> sandking:  with ubuntu also pre-installed?
[11:18] <sandking> purplefool: i had windows for a week or two and then made dual boot
[11:18] <purplefool> sandking:  and when you boot into windows there is NEVER this problem?
[11:19] <sandking> purplefool: the issue is that this happens AFTER I shut down Ubuntu. then when i start the machine nothing is displayed EVEN the BIOS info
[11:19] <sandking> so it's really strange
[11:19] <purplefool> sandking: but NEVER when you shut down windows?
[11:19] <sandking> as it's not the os that is not dispaying image - it's something that prevents displaying image right from the start
[11:19] <sandking> purplefool: yes
[11:20] <sandking> I might be wrong but I really occasionally run Windows
[11:20] <purplefool> sandking:  which made me think it was hardware...that is really strange.
[11:20] <sandking> purplefool: if it was that after GRUB selection i couldn't see image i would be more calm. but actually i don't see anything from startup
[11:21] <pubuntu> anybody help me how to get iriverter working in lucid
[11:22] <sandking> and by the way - anyone use sleep/hibernate option?
[11:22] <purplefool> sandking:  i have to go.  but i would check the hardware carefully.  if you aren't sure about windows (because of lack of use) then try it with windows a bunch to troubleshoot.  good luck.
[11:23] <sandking> purplefool: bye and thx for interest
[11:23] <Astyx> windows 7 is really nice one
[11:23] <diskin> hi all, when I insert 10.04 CD, my 9.10 system does not prompt to upgrade from it. why can it be?
[11:24] <Dr_Willis> diskin:  i thought it only did that for an 'alterntaive installer' cd
[11:24] <diskin> Dr_Willis, or maybe for DVD?
[11:25] <Dr_Willis> i never use the dvd. I thouight the dvd just had more languages
[11:25] <jeward> I can't get into #wine, can anyone help me get WoW running under 10.04?
[11:25] <rww> jeward: it's #winehq, not #wine
[11:25] <Jordan_U> diskin: Yes, you can upgrade with the DVD (which contains both the live and alternate installers + extra packages)
[11:25] <jeward> I'm getting error #132.
[11:25] <Dr_Willis> jeward:  be sure to register your nickname also. and check the winehq forums/app database
[11:26] <rww> Dr_Willis: it's registered already.
[11:26] <diskin> Jordan_U, so,no chances with the CD?
[11:26] <Jordan_U> diskin: Correct.
[11:26] <Jordan_U> !upgrade | diskin
[11:26] <diskin> Jordan_U, thanks
[11:26] <Jordan_U> diskin: You're welcome.
[11:26] <Chriisti> how install kernel 2.6.35? pls link thx:)
[11:27] <Dr_Willis> !kernel | Chriisti
[11:27] <erUSUL> Chriisti: 2.6.35 is not even out yet ...
[11:27] <Dr_Willis> Good Luck
[11:27] <Dr_Willis> apt-get install timetraveltothefuture

[11:27] <Salah> well_laid_lawn, Error creating a child process if I try to start the Gnome System Monitor
[11:28] <well_laid_lawn> Salah: it doesn't start from the panel either?
[11:29] <Salah> well_laid_lawn, no I can't do anything on the panel
[11:29] <well_laid_lawn> Salah: I would use conky so it is visible when the system hangs
[11:29] <well_laid_lawn> !info conky
[11:29] <sandking> Dr_Willis: I just tried to hibernate my computer. it didn't react to keys, so i pressed power button with the effect i described earlier
[11:30] <sandking> few restarts and power up/down later i started the computer
[11:30] <sandking> in which log should i look now?
[11:30] <splashote> hi there, I want to reset the mime types to the default values/images. how to achieve this?
[11:30] <Dr_Willis> i never use hibernate or suspend. TO many issues.   check /var/log and see what looks promising sandking
[11:32] <dqnker> hi
[11:32] <sandking> how to open log viewer from terminal?
[11:32] <sandking> what' the command?
[11:32] <tau> hey, how can I add files into a arq.iso?
[11:32] <well_laid_lawn> splashote: if there is a file in your home folder   .local/share/applications/mimeinfo.cache   delete it
[11:32] <wise_crypt> !FixRes
[11:33] <opti___> is there a dummy package to just install all the building/compiler stuff ?
[11:33] <Jordan_U> tau: arq?
[11:33] <tau> Jordan_U:  yes, arq.iso is a file.
[11:33] <erUSUL> opti___: build-essential
[11:33] <erUSUL> !b-e
[11:33] <tau> Jordan_U:  or, skdf.iso
[11:33] <tau> Jordan_U:  i have a file name.iso, i want to add another files into it.
[11:34] <Jordan_U> tau: Iso master will allow you to add files to an iso
[11:34] <X-Sleepy-X> Is the /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini file configured to be development or production in Ubuntu 10.04?
[11:34] <Salah> well_laid_lawn, the terminals don't start. I give up.
[11:34] <well_laid_lawn> !info isomaster | tau
[11:34] <ikonia> X-Sleepy-X: pardin ?
[11:34] <ikonia> pardon
[11:34] <tau> Jordan_U:  thank you.
[11:34] <splashote> well_laid_lawn: ok, i did so. anything else?
[11:34] <Jordan_U> tau: You're welcome.
[11:35] <tau> Jordan_U:  :)
[11:35] <well_laid_lawn> splashote: you might need to logout/login
[11:35] <splashote> well_laid_lawn: ok, i'll try to do so. thanks!
[11:35] <well_laid_lawn> np :]
[11:35] <X-Sleepy-X> ikonia: I mean, it comes with examples of both enviroments but I want to know what it has been set to use as default.
[11:36] <NEXUS-6> buenas
[11:36] <NEXUS-6> alguien ha tenido problemas con empathy para conectar la cuenta de messenger
[11:36] <NEXUS-6> ?
[11:36] <well_laid_lawn> !pt
[11:36] <ikonia> X-Sleepy-X: make a page with phpinfo() in it see the current conifg, the php file will use what ever is not commented out, or fall back to default
[11:36] <NEXUS-6> es que a mi de repente me da un error de red en las cuentas de hotmail
[11:37] <bazhang> NEXUS-6, english here
[11:37] <erUSUL> !!es | NEXUS-6
[11:37] <splashote> well_laid_lawn: ok, nothing changed. is it normal that PDFs and ODTs have the same icon?
[11:37] <NEXUS-6> ok thanks
[11:37] <well_laid_lawn> splashote: that would depend on the icon set afaik
[11:38] <X-Sleepy-X> ikonia: thanks!
[11:38] <kier> does anyone know how to use subcircuits in ktechlab? (the builtin help does not work on my computer)
[11:39] <sandking> Dr_Willis: http://www.pasteall.org/13600 this is hibernate startup problem log
[11:39] <well_laid_lawn> splashote: if you right click a pdf what is the app that opens it - that's what the mimetype is all about
[11:40] <splashote> but aren't mimetypes the main way to change the symbols (apart from changing the whole icon set?)
[11:42] <splashote> with humanity, all those files look the same. does any of you use humanity and could verify, that PDFs and ODTs look the same with this icon set activated?
[11:45] <loopidity> I am still getting the ICEauthority failed : even after chmod 777
[11:45] <wrr_> where is the new database of mysql stored?
[11:45] <Jordan_U> loopidity: Is it owned by your user?
[11:45] <loopidity> Jordan_U
[11:45] <loopidity> yes
[11:46] <loopidity> chown  user:user .IC*
[11:46] <pppppp> hallo
[11:47] <loopidity> and maybe because of that reason, that my sound device says busy or somethign
[11:47] <loopidity> and I get no startup sound
[11:50] <oCean_> wrr_: like always in /var/lib/mysql/dbname
[11:51] <loopidity> still , couldnt update .ICauthority
[11:53] <pppppp> i have question
[11:53] <pppppp> i installed ubuntu inside my vbox
[11:53] <manhunter> hi
[11:53] <pppppp> on windows
[11:53] <manhunter> pppppp: how did you install?
[11:54] <pppppp> on virtual machine
[11:54] <manhunter> pppppp: how did you install virtual box?
[11:54] <pppppp> inside windows
[11:54] <manhunter> pppppp: i have ubuntu9.10.iso , how can i install it with vbox?
[11:54] <manhunter> pppppp: i have the iso, i have not burned it
[11:55] <Lazy^> manhunter: mount it via virtual-cd-rom
[11:55] <manhunter> Lazy^: then?
[11:55] <Lazy^> point virtual-cd-rom to .iso and then boot virtual-box from cd
[11:55] <pppppp> and i created a folder in windows to be shared folder
[11:55] <splashote> after exchanging x-office-document.svg in humanity/24 and /32 nothing happens, the symbols for the ODTs etc. keep being the same
[11:55] <pppppp> its name is "DZIELONE"
[11:55] <oCean_> manhunter: it's no different from other vbox installations
[11:55] <pppppp> and inside ubuntu i modified the fstab file
[11:55] <manhunter> pppppp: then?
[11:56] <pppppp> DZIELONE /home/popo/dzielone vboxsf defaults 0 0
[11:56] <iceroot> manhunter: #vbox also the vbox-manual is great to see how to use vbox
[11:56] <pppppp> but it is not working as i wish
[11:56] <oCean_> manhunter: further virtualbox support is in #vbox
[11:56] <pppppp> i mean i have not write rights in this folder as normal user
[11:56] <oCean_> pppppp: try to keep your issue in a single line please?
[11:56] <pppppp> how chcnge this settings in fstab ?
[11:58] <ikonia> pppppp: what do you want to change in the fstab ?
[11:58] <pppppp> ocean : ok :   how to set up fstab file in ubuntu ?
[11:58] <pppppp> i want to mount this shared folder on startup
[11:58] <ikonia> pppppp: it should be setup by default install
[11:58] <pppppp> ikonia
[11:59] <pppppp> it is not
[11:59] <oCean_> pppppp: you want to setup fstab to share windows partitions/disk with your ubuntu install?
[11:59] <pppppp> yes
[11:59] <pppppp> in windows i can do everything
[11:59] <pppppp> but from ubuntu i cannot
[11:59] <ikonia> pppppp: your disks (windows) should be visible from the places menu
[11:59] <iceroot> !enter | pppppp
[11:59] <ikonia> pppppp: just click on the disk you want from the places menu
[12:00] <BR41N> hi again guys
[12:00] <oCean_> ikonia: in vbox too? No additional config required?
[12:00] <ikonia> oCean_: depends how vbox has the disks presented, in theory they should not be able to see the "host" disk at all
[12:01] <ikonia> oCean_: howver if the host disk has been presented as a virtual disk to the virtual machine, then yes, it should be the same
[12:01] <pppppp> i can set up this by rightclicking on the folder in ubuntu
[12:02] <Dr_Willis> In linux i can do anything.. in windows i feel like my hands are tied. :)
[12:02] <oCean_> pppppp: did you read ikonia's answer to me? Dit you present a windows disk/folder as a virtual disk to your vm?
[12:02] <oCean_> s/dit/did
[12:02] <pppppp> yes
[12:02] <manhunter> Dr_Willis: why?
[12:02] <alexi5> Dr_Willis:i know how you feel :D
[12:02] <pppppp> the disk is visible in ubuntu
[12:02] <oCean_> pppppp: ah ok.
[12:03] <ikonia> so then what's the problem
[12:03] <pppppp> but not have all rights to it
[12:03] <alexi5> linux console tools are a god send
[12:03] <pppppp> i cannot write
[12:03] <ikonia> pppppp: if you mount it by clicking it from the places menu, it should work, however you may not be able to write to it because windows is using that file system and has a lock on it
[12:03] <pppppp> i can solve it by rightclicking on the folder and chosing it shared
[12:03] <manhunter> alexi5: what do you mean? "linux console tools are a god send"
[12:04] <iceroot> pppppp: because vbox os running as vbox and not as your username, can the vbox-user write on it?
[12:04] <ikonia> pppppp: eg: your trying to access a disk that's in use by your host machine, that's running the OS you want to access as a gust
[12:04] <Aidar-Nagato> mmm, printscreen button worked when i had beta version, but now it doesn't work
[12:05] <pppppp> yes i want to have acces as a guest
[12:05] <alexi5> manhunter:maning the have tools for one specific task  such as awk,tee sed,tee,grep,etc... but when combine toger using pipes are very powerfull
[12:06] <manhunter> alexi5: so,what do you want to say?
[12:06] <Archy> I manually installed the newest kernel, and everything is working fine.  When I update, it tries to install updates to an older kernel.  Is it safe to install these updates to the old kernel and headers, or will they replace the kernel Im using now?
[12:07] <oCean_> manhunter: alexi5, you're welcome to discuss in #ubuntu-offtopic, this is technical support issues only. Dr_Willis should know that :)
[12:07] <alexi5> ok
[12:07] <ikonia> Archy: how did you install the newer kernel
[12:07] <Archy> ikonia: .deb file.
[12:07] <ikonia> Archy: from where ?
[12:07] <Lazy^> Hello, is there any way to access via remote desktop to 10.04 lts after i have rebooted it. ssh works ofc but remote desktop wont =)
[12:08] <Archy> ikonia: I dont remember the URL, but it was probably from Debian.
[12:08] <ikonia> Archy: ok - then you have no support here as debian kernels are not designed to work with ubuntu
[12:08] <wildbat> !vnc | Lazy^
[12:08] <Archy> ikonia: I didnt ask about that Kernel.  I asked about the Ubuntu kernel that is still installed but not currently in use.  Its my fallback and that should be supported here.
[12:09] <ikonia> Archy: no you asked about the updates against your kernel
[12:09] <Archy> ikonia: I asked about upating the Ubuntu kernel.
[12:09] <ikonia> Archy: of course the fall back kernel from ubuntu is supported,
[12:09] <Lazy^> wildbat: that isnt the problem, i have enable remote desktop in gnome but what i want to know that can i enable it when i havent logged into gnome, since i rebooted
[12:09] <ikonia> Archy: you can update the ubuntu kernel to the current ubuntu stable kernel
[12:10] <Guest69217> can i put two versions of ubuntu in the same partition
[12:10] <ikonia> Guest69217: no
[12:11] <Dr_Willis> Lazy^:  if yiou are not logging into gnome to start the remote desktop, then you have to use  a normal 'vncserver'  setup. Or else set up the box to aut0-login to gnome
[12:11] <ikonia> Guest69217: well, you can but it requires a LOT of work
[12:11] <Guest69217> i dont mind work
[12:11] <ikonia> Guest69217: ok then "yes"
[12:11] <Guest69217> not in a hurry
[12:11] <Guest69217> will i need certain software to assist?
[12:11] <Dr_Willis> Guest69217:  and what are you trying to gain by doing this?
[12:12] <ikonia> Guest69217: you'll need a large ammount of understanding and knowledge of how the linux file systems and libraries are laid out and linked
[12:12] <vershan> hi there
[12:12] <Guest69217> i can only have four partitions my partitioner is telling me.
[12:12] <ikonia> Guest69217: you can only have 4 primary, but you can have 16 if you use extended partitions
[12:12] <Dr_Willis> Guest69217:  you can have more then 4 :)
[12:12] <vershan> is there anyway i can view wma wmv on totem
[12:12] <Dr_Willis> Guest69217:  time to learn  about extended and logical partitions
[12:12] <Lazy^> Dr_Willis: there isnt any way to login to gnome via ssh =)
[12:13] <Guest69217> and grub dr_willis
[12:13] <Dr_Willis> Lazy^:  not  that ive seen. sort of pointless  if all you need to do is start 'vncserver' and have IT start up gnome..  theres not need to have gnome running on the remote 'visible' desktop
[12:13] <Dr_Willis> Guest69217:  you can easially do 2 different installs to different partitions.
[12:13] <ShapeShifter499> `um what is the difference between an primary and a extended partition?
[12:13] <Dr_Willis> and one handling grub2 should see them both.
[12:14] <Dr_Willis> ShapeShifter499:  4 Primaries , one can be an extended that can hold logicals.
[12:14] <Guest69217> i have duel boot already... with grub 2 running the show
[12:14] <Guest69217> windows 7 was my main os till i switched...
[12:14] <vershan> is there a way to play wmv wma on movie player
[12:14] <ShapeShifter499> Dr_Willis: um meaning?
[12:14] <Dr_Willis> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disk_partitioning
[12:14] <ShapeShifter499> Dr_Willis: k
[12:15] <Dr_Willis> vershan:  depening on the codecs they are using - they should play. You may need to install some xtrta codec packs
[12:15] <vershan> im getting this error video/x-asf-unknown decoder Windows Media Speech decoder
[12:15] <oCean_> !pm | pppppp
[12:16] <oCean_> pppppp: also: further virtualbox support -> join #vbox
[12:16] <Dr_Willis> vershan:  you have installed ubuntu-restricted-extras (perhaps?) and some of the other gstreamer plugins/codecs packages?
[12:16] <vershan> yes i have dr
[12:16] <bnagy> or just don't use virtualbox because it sucks
[12:17] <vershan> i dont know what gstreamer plugins to install
[12:17] <Dr_Willis> vershan:  fire up package manager, search. install them all perhaps. :)
[12:17] <lasse> Heyyy guys, I was about to download the 64bit version of 10.04 -- but it says it's _not_ recommended. Anyone know why this is?

[12:17] <bnagy> lasse: no, it says is _is_ recommended, surely?
[12:17] <Dr_Willis> lasse:  the 'web site' that sauys 'not recocomended for desktop ussage' has not been updated in ages.
[12:18] <vershan> how to i see your private message
[12:18] <lasse> ikonia http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/download
[12:18] <rww> lasse: It means that most people will want 32-bit because it's more likely to work on all computers. If you know you want it, ignore that. It's worded badly.
[12:18] <Dr_Willis> lasse:  its just being a bit paranoid. Go ahead and use it if you want
[12:18] <rww> ikonia: there's a bug open about it being horribly worded :(
[12:18] <lasse> okay, thanks guys. Just wanted to make sure :)
[12:18] <ikonia> lasse: ignore that warning
[12:18] <ikonia> rww: that's a disgraceful bug
[12:18] <rww> ikonia: I agree
[12:18] <lasse> ikonia, so it shall be ;)

[12:25] <Guest62217> can you use chown or chmod to show the current permissions and not actually change them?

[12:28] <vagothcpp_> Curious, does Ubuntu Server 10.04LTS come with LVM by standard>
[12:28] <vagothcpp_> s/>/?
[12:28]  * MrChris thinks it does.
[12:28] <ZachK_> MrChris: careful pardner
[12:28] <vershan> cant play wmv or wma on totem - mplayer works fine though any ideas
[12:28] <ikonia> vagothcpp_: yes, lvm is part of the install
[12:28] <MrChris> kk :p
[12:29] <vershan> i installed gstreamer plugins
[12:29] <vagothcpp_> ikonia: Thankyou
[12:30] <Dr_Willis> vershan:  all of them? Could be some weird codec that totem cant handle
[12:30] <vershan> yesh it wmv and wma
[12:30] <vershan> i installed restriced extras
[12:30] <Dr_Willis> wmv and wma dont really mean mean the 'codec' the file is using.  Theres differnt codecs.
[12:31] <Dr_Willis> I alwaways use VLC to watch videos vershan  totem is just lacking in too many ways
[12:31] <vershan> ok dr willis - any other solution to this
[12:31] <Aidar-Nagato> i found why i cant use printscreen button - it's used as SysRq, how can i disable SysRq button and make it work as PrintScreen always?
[12:31] <Dr_Willis> vershan:  install all the codec packsages and hope one works.. or use a different player
[12:32] <jhaig> Something I've always wondered (well, ever since have seen it, at least).  On the right-click menu of a USB drive on the desktop, what is the difference between 'Eject' and 'Safely remove'?  They both appear to do the same thing.
[12:32] <vershan> ok i have vlc - No suitable decoder module: VLC does not support the audio or video format "MSS2". Unfortunately there is no way for you to fix this.
[12:32] <timon> Can someone tell me some famour irc rooms to join??
[12:32] <vershan> so vlc and totem dont work
[12:33] <vershan> only mplayer works
[12:33] <Aidar-Nagato> fonud the answer)
[12:33] <ikonia> timon: no
[12:33] <MrChris> timon: try #freenode
[12:33] <Dr_Willis> vershan:  sounds like mss2 is a very odd codec then.   mplayer can use the w32codecs package. thats why its proberly working
[12:33] <vershan> oh ok
[12:33] <bumpa_> Anyone knows why VLC is consuming 20% CPU usage when I play .avi/.mpg/.wmv/.flv files?
[12:33] <ikonia> bumpa_: it needs to decode them, so uses cpu
[12:33] <bumpa_> ikonia, but in windows it only uses 1% CPU
[12:33] <shaun> Hi, I"m new to this formum and this has probably been discussed a 'million' times already, but has anyone come across the problem with 10.04 and VMWare when the keyboard doesn't work at the logon screen.  you can use the accessability settings and use and on-screen keboard but the physical one doen't work.  I"ve upgraded VMWare to 7.1, and it's running on Win7
[12:34] <vershan> bumpa how did you get vlc to play wmv files
[12:34] <ikonia> bumpa_: depends on the codec
[12:34] <alz3abi> hello
[12:34] <vershan> its not playing my end
[12:34] <alz3abi> i need a help please
[12:34] <vershan> im using vlc 1.0.6
[12:34] <alz3abi> i delete all kernels in my ubuntu now i cant boot . im using now Live CD
[12:34] <YankDownUnder> bumpa_, There's a major difference in how CPU usage is reported under Windows than under unix/linux/bsd
[12:34] <vershan> what version are you using mamba
[12:35] <bumpa_> YankDownUnder, what's the difference?
[12:35] <erUSUL> alz3abi: chroot to your hd install and install "linux-image"
[12:35] <Dr_Willis> alz3abi:  how did you managee to do that?
[12:35] <erUSUL> alz3abi: how to chroot is explained in the grub2 wiki page
[12:35] <erUSUL> !grub2 | alz3abi
[12:36] <vershan> dr willis i have a question for you please
[12:36] <erUSUL> alz3abi: Recover grub using the livecd section
[12:36] <Dr_Willis> vershan:  Hmm?
[12:36] <MITSUBISHIMAN> hi
[12:36] <alz3abi> http://swiss.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=9418946#post9418946
[12:37] <vershan> the version vlc im using is 10.0.6 - and there is a later version 10.1 - how do i get that cause its not in the respository - and 10.1 supports the formats im looking for
[12:37] <erUSUL> !ppa | vershan
[12:37] <vershan> sorry 1.0.6
[12:37] <erUSUL> vershan: add the vlc ppa repositorie... is working fine for me
[12:37] <YankDownUnder> bumpa_, Firstly, Windows uses "pre-emptive multi-tasking" - which is, in reality, false real-time processing - the time slices allotted to programs are so small and so fast that it APPEARS as though it's running multiple programs - however, under unix/linux/bsd, all programs ARE being run in realtime. The CPU has to process the codecs for whichever media you're running - decoding them on the fly. The same actually happens
[12:37] <YankDownUnder> in Windows, but you get a false reading as to what the CPU is actually doing. Does that make sense?
[12:37] <MITSUBISHIMAN> how does linux "just work"   i mean how does it work flawlessly next to other OS's
[12:37] <alz3abi> i mounted my /boot to dev/sda6 and / to dev/sa2 and update && install linux-image , Not working
[12:38] <vershan> bumpa how do i do that
[12:38] <ikonia> MITSUBISHIMAN: other OS's are nothing to do with it
[12:38] <vershan> im really new to this
[12:38] <ikonia> MITSUBISHIMAN: it doesn't know/care about other OS's
[12:38] <MITSUBISHIMAN> where does it get its capabilities
[12:38] <ikonia> MITSUBISHIMAN: it's an operating system - it's capabilities are written into it's softwre
[12:38] <ikonia> MITSUBISHIMAN: this is discussed on the internet a lot, there is plenty of information on the web
[12:38] <erUSUL> MITSUBISHIMAN: well linux has been historically forces to play nice with other installed OS's on the machine becouse most people dual-booted
[12:38] <bumpa_> YankDownUnder: but isnt it because that Ubuntu is not using the GPU accelerator, is it that why it consumes alot of CPU?

[12:39] <leshank> Hey all. I'm having a bit of a problem with my laptop having done an update+upgrade last night
[12:39] <erUSUL> MITSUBISHIMAN: windows has and have had the luxury of ignoring any other OS's on the machine
[12:39] <leshank> When I boot, the login goes fine, but I get 3 errors, and then a very broken home screen. Details are listed here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1502676 - If any one could offer some help, it would be greatly appreciated
[12:39] <sudotux> !grub2
[12:41] <MITSUBISHIMAN> i mean like.... if i were to use windows Persay.... i would most likely have to download somthing to run somthing else.... and when i use Ubuntu.... it asks for nothing... it just does it....
[12:41] <sudotux> how to chroot my harddrive from the lucid live cd
[12:41] <ikonia> leshank: I have updated that thread for you
[12:41] <Guest69217> ok im back asking about extended partitions and logical drives... any have any good links.. i tried to find info but not doin too well
[12:41] <ikonia> sudotux: that is detailed on the grub2 page as you've been told
[12:41] <ikonia> Guest69217: there is plenty on the net - check out wikipedia, or try ##hardware
[12:42] <erUSUL> leshank: for the looks of it maybe your hard disk gave some error and got mounted read only
[12:42] <erUSUL> leshank: that's why it complains of not being able to create7update some files...
[12:42] <sudotux> ikonia, will that allow me to just grab the meta package for the kernel ?
[12:42] <ikonia> sudotux: what ????
[12:42] <MITSUBISHIMAN> forgive my lack of understanding... i just cant understand how it works so well
[12:42] <blackrock> Does anyone know how to turn off notifications in Gyache?
[12:42] <erUSUL> leshank: i would check if that's the case and run fsck/smart on the diesk from the livecd
[12:42] <bumpa_> YankDownUnder, because in Windows Vista and Windows 7 the graphic card is using the GPU accelerator to decode
[12:43] <ikonia> MITSUBISHIMAN: ubuntu comes with software installed ontop of the OS - windows is just the OS, that's why you don't need to install stuff
[12:43] <MITSUBISHIMAN> i see
[12:43] <sudotux> ikonia, ya exactly some idiot who offered to help ummm well when removing old kernels it took the linux-image for all the kernels
[12:44] <erUSUL> sudotux: once you have chrooted you can do « sudo aptitude install linux-image » cross fingers and reboot
[12:44] <MaverickOne> sudotux: last night I asked you not to call people names
[12:44] <ikonia> sudotux: ok - that's nothing to do with your question, you asked how to chroot, that is explained on the grub2 wiki page, that you have been given
[12:44] <MaverickOne> this morning i am asking you again
[12:44] <sudotux> :O
[12:44] <MITSUBISHIMAN> so in a sense... linux has made every os rendered useless?
[12:44] <ikonia> MITSUBISHIMAN: not at all
[12:44] <MaverickOne> sudotux: YOU are your system admin. make sure you know what you are doing before doing it
[12:45] <MITSUBISHIMAN> Oh?
[12:45] <ikonia> MITSUBISHIMAN: if  you've like to dicuss this, join #ubuntu-offtopic as #ubuntu is just for support questions
[12:45] <sudotux> Maverick that is why i asked 4 times that what i did would be ok...
[12:45] <MITSUBISHIMAN> thanks
[12:45] <sudotux> And here we are now
[12:46] <MaverickOne> sudotux: ok. here is the thing, stop trying to blame other people for stuff going wrong on your system and focus and getting it fixed.
[12:46] <erUSUL> alz3abi:  i mounted my /boot to dev/sda6 and / to dev/sa2 <<< that's not enough... do as specified in the grub2 wiki

[12:47] <sudotux> MaverickOne, i am working on getting it fixed but when people ask me question like what the hell happened fact is fact but ya i am working on it
[12:47] <lxsys> exit]
[12:47] <lxsys> whoope
[12:47] <MaverickOne> sudotux: well then tell them you listened to bad advice and ran a command without being sure what it did. Don't call people names please
[12:49] <sudotux> MaverickOne, ok sounds good but i explictly did ask if it was a problem and well hey they said "linux image is just meta information" well ya but now my OS doesn't know jack about my kernel existing
[12:49] <ht1> hi!!! fuck ubuntu!!!

[12:51] <satrya> hi
[12:51] <forceflow> bumpa_: because VLC < 1.1 does not use GPU acceleration

[13:04] <ManDay> I bound Hibernation to the PWR-Button on the case. When I press it, the computer goes into hibernation as expected. When I press it again, it comes back up. But I'm only back on the desktop for a few seconds and it hibernates again! When I then bring it back a second time, it stays on-line. Can anyone help?
[13:04] <Gerwin> FlameTai1: --reinstall
[13:04] <coz_> ActionParsnip,  they are healthy
[13:04] <ActionParsnip> FlameTai1: you need: sudo apt-get install --reinstall dkms
[13:05] <e01> FlameTai1, ?
[13:05] <ActionParsnip> FlameTai1: my bad
[13:05] <FlameTai1> ActionParsnip: All good xD
[13:05] <ActionParsnip> coz_: when did you last test?
[13:05] <coz_> ActionParsnip,  eveytime there is an update :)
[13:05] <ActionParsnip> coz_: so you do a full fsck everytime you update?
[13:06] <coz_> ActionParsnip,  I reinstall clean once a week since this has been happening with the identical results
[13:06] <coz_> ActionParsnip,  drives with single partitions are fine but with multiple partitions  its a no go

[13:13] <coz_> ActionParsnip,  reinstalling now by the way... what I might try is maverick to see if it has been remedied

[13:15] <FlameTai1> ActionParsnip: Just tried both of your suggestions and no go, any other suggestions ActionParsnip ?
[13:15] <erUSUL> sudotux: in chroot you do not need to use sudo
[13:16] <jrib> sudotux: and for aptitude search you never use sudo anyway
[13:16] <sudotux> when i searched for the wild card nothing is coming back but when i did a search aptitude search linux-image i got back all the images :(

[13:22] <MasterZuFu> Hey guys, I need some serious help here. I was messing around with myql on my mybb forum with member groups. Somehow I accidentally put ALL members with a postcount of more than 9 in the "registered users" group, including myself. PHPMyAdmin isn't working right now. So is there some other way I can put myself in the admin group? No one's answering in #mysql...PLEASE help me! :S
[13:23] <jrib> sudotux: ah, I see now.   The first character is for the current state.  The second is for the action.  You don't have a kernel installed
[13:23] <vagothcpp_> MasterZuFu: Use the MySQL command-line and a series of long commands to adjust the admin user
[13:23] <sudotux> jrib, even if i removed a different kernel and left the package but it took the meta information ?
[13:23] <BluesKaj> 'Morning folks
[13:23] <jrib> sudotux: you removed all your kernels
[13:23] <vagothcpp_> provied you know what to type in there ofc
[13:23] <MasterZuFu> I know the command I need to put in, but i have no idea how to use the mysql command-line
[13:24] <sudotux> no
[13:24] <evilsherpa> hey all, im lookin at a second hdd in gparted, it has a yelow triangle with an esclamation mark on /dev.sda1 i cant tell if i shopuld format this drive or somehow get it to work
[13:24] <mom_> hey when i download a file of name .doc it opens when i click on it, but when i choose open it doesnt open . . . where do i set those preferences in firefox?
[13:24] <jrib> sudotux: yes, that's what you just pastebinned says.  You have no package for a kernel installed
[13:24] <evilsherpa> like i havent had any drive failures in the past, but i did a clean install a couple of months ago
[13:24] <sudotux> i removed a debain kernel.... and an old kernel and a Bad Advice was given saying that the linux-image meta tag was fine to remove
[13:24] <evilsherpa> this might be one of my old drives, id like to know whats on it before formatting it.
[13:25] <sudotux> :(
[13:25] <jrib> sudotux: somehow, either explicitly or implicitly, you removed all packages of the form linux-image*
[13:25] <jrib> sudotux: if you run « sudo aptitude install » it should install the ones with an action of 'i'
[13:25] <aknagi> If an ISP was to create a web-server build of Ubuntu, do you think they would install X11/ Gnome or build a terminal only server?
[13:25] <gam3> java isn't opening an application for me, i get this: http://pastebin.org/312775 can anyone help?
[13:26] <vagothcpp_> MasterZuFu: Just googling will get you an answer, but you can run: mysql -h <ServerAddress> -u <UserName> -p<password(no space there is intentional)
[13:26] <vagothcpp_> Replace anything in < > with the appropriate information
[13:26] <mom_> nevermind found it
[13:26] <mom_> in preferences
[13:26] <sudotux> jrib,  correct but part of the reason i removed it was space constrictions so now that the isht is broke why do i want to dump both  back on ? so grab the .22 package ?
[13:26] <MasterZuFu> thanks vagothcpp_:
[13:27] <KungFuBear> Hi, I just updated to 10.04 from 9.10. I was previously using Dual monitors. My second monitor now is a bit messed up. It has wavy lines and I can't read anything in that monitor. Any ideas?
[13:27] <Gerwin> aknagi: Commandline only
[13:27] <vagothcpp_> MasterZuFu: A tip, try googling, then smashing your head on a wall, then asking someone, if all else fails, there is a sawn-off shotgun in the second draw
[13:27] <vagothcpp_> =P
[13:27] <jrib> sudotux: you should have one of the meta packages installed so that you get new kernels as they become available.  You can then either remove the older ones manually when that happens or see if there is some automated why of doing it (there used to be some thing called computer janitor for that?  I don't know)
[13:27] <sudotux> jrib, if you remember from last night i had the most current debain, the current ubuntu and the old ubuntu kernels. the debain,old ubuntu kernels were removed
[13:28] <aknagi> Thanks Gerwin.
[13:28] <peimankh> Hello, I have a problem. I just installed the latest ubuntu but the screen goes black if I don't use the mouse or keyboard for a while
[13:28] <vagothcpp_> peimankh: thats called powersaving
[13:28] <jrib> sudotux: you're pastebin says you removed all of the ubuntu kernels, not just old
[13:28] <Gerwin> aknagi: You don't need a GUI on a server, right?
[13:28] <gam3> java isn't opening an application for me, i get this: http://pastebin.org/312775 can anyone help?
[13:28] <KungFuBear> peimankh: Go to System Screensaver and set your settings
[13:28] <sudotux> jrib,  janitor well at least my janitor doesnt clean kernels
[13:28] <jrib> sudotux: this doesn't matter though, we know what you need to do *now*
[13:28] <peimankh> vagothcpp_: hehe yes but after I cannot get back to the desktop
[13:28] <sudotux> :
[13:29] <KungFuBear> peimankh: I meant System >> Preferences >> ScreenSaver
[13:29] <vagothcpp_> Gerwin: It might be nice if it didnt take up 75% of the resources, just buck up and cmdline
[13:29] <peimankh> vagothcpp_: I need to power down the computer. Also I turned off the screensaver and sleep mode just to be sure.
[13:29] <Gerwin> vagothcpp_: That was gonna be my next, thanks for spoiling :(
[13:29] <sudotux> are you kidding me why the hell is it forcing back on CRAP i explictly tried to remove :(
[13:29] <vagothcpp_> Gerwin: Say it anyway for shats and giggles
[13:30] <MasterZuFu> vagothcpp_: is there any way to figure out what my mysql database password and username is in a file?
[13:30] <aknagi> Gerwin: No - I don't think so, although the updates are really easy to get with a gui. I was just wondering what the ISPs did.
[13:30] <vagothcpp_> MasterZuFu: what did you set it to when you installed
[13:30] <HoodoGuru> so, anybody good with CONKY? I'm tyring to set it up and it's driving me nuts.....no matter what I put in my .conkyrc I can't get it to change height
[13:30] <Gerwin> aknagi: Errr, ISPs provide you with an internet connection :P
[13:30] <jrib> sudotux: explicitly remove the packages that have a state of 'i' if that's what you want
[13:30] <aknagi> Gerwin: I meants web-hosts sorry.
[13:30] <MasterZuFu> vagothcpp_: I'm not sure. Im' looking at two accounts righ tnow, and neither of them are working, so i guess i changed it and didn't write it down
[13:30] <Gerwin> aknagi: Commandline only ;)
[13:31] <HoodoGuru> I've tried just blanking out the entire ,conkyrc and pasting ones in from the internet for testing purposes, but so far they all remain the same size
[13:31] <aknagi> Gerwin: Cool :)
[13:31] <vagothcpp_> MasterZuFu: Try logging in without specifying -p in that line
[13:31] <peimankh> KungFuBear: I don't mind the screen saver, it's just that after I press a key or move the mouse and the screen keeps flashing between complete blackness and stripy white patterns indefinitely. Then I have to reboot the computer using the power button.
[13:31] <bazhang> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=5436679 HoodoGuru here is a good beginners guide
[13:31] <HoodoGuru> despite the size being explicitly set to something else in the .conkyrc
[13:31] <harrywood> after running the  10.04 LTS upgrade I have an internet connection but firefox is not connecting :-(
[13:31] <vagothcpp_> harrywood: run sudo route
[13:31] <vagothcpp_> and make sure your gateway ip/host shows there
[13:32] <HoodoGuru> and it's definitely reading the conkyrc file, because it's not the defaults....everything works just fine except its all cut off after a certain point
[13:32] <KungFuBear> peimankh: I'm having a visual issue similar after updating to 10.04. Its regarding my second monitor though. I don't have a solution yet, sorry
[13:32] <harrywood> what does that tell me/
[13:32] <harrywood> ?
[13:32] <MasterZuFu> vagothcpp_: it won't let me, it works when i put what i think is the "root" username and password, but then it asks for another password, and it then tells me i can't access it
[13:32] <HoodoGuru> bazhang, thanks I appreciate it...but I don't need a beginners guide
[13:32] <sudotux> jrib,  could removing apache have caused this ?
[13:32] <vagothcpp_> that ubuntu recognizes your gateway, if it doesnt, then there is no way in hell you can connect
[13:33] <HoodoGuru> Im having some sort of weird issue
[13:33] <jrib> sudotux: no
[13:33] <sudotux> jrib, didnt think so
[13:33] <vagothcpp_> harrywood: Also try ping google.com
[13:33] <peimankh> KungFuBear: thanks, I'll keep my eyes open for when you find the solution :-)
[13:33] <harrywood> yep pinging works
[13:33] <harrywood> irc works too :)
[13:33] <vagothcpp_> harrywood: hmm
[13:34] <vagothcpp_> harrywood: apt-get remove firefox then apt-get install firefox =P im not sure
[13:34] <HoodoGuru> for some reason conky won't go past a certain size, and as I said it's not becuase I forgot to set maxsize or something like that
[13:34] <Gerwin> harrywood: Tried any other browsers?
[13:34] <HoodoGuru> I've tried completely blanking out the config and trying different ones from various source on the internet, and they work except they get cut off at a certain point
[13:35] <ActionParsnip> harrywood: if you run: gksudo gedit /etc/resolv.conf    empty out the file and add these 2 lines:    nameserver 8.8.8.8        nameserver 8.8.4.4    Save the new file, close gedit then try the web
[13:35] <gam3> java isn't opening an application for me, i get this: http://pastebin.org/312775 can anyone help?
[13:35] <HoodoGuru> I can't for the life of me figure it out, I've been using Conky for awhile, and I've never had issues with it
[13:35] <sudotux> We got a problem here
[13:35] <ActionParsnip> HoodoGuru: can you give a screenshot please
[13:36] <HoodoGuru> Sure, one sec
[13:36] <MasterZuFu> vagothcpp_: ok, i got in
[13:36] <sudotux> jrib, http://pastebin.com/Js27dt4r

[13:37] <MasterZuFu> vagothcpp_: I'm trying to run the following command, any idea what the syntax is for it so it'll go through correctly?
[13:37] <MasterZuFu> UPDATE `certif_users` SET `usergroup` = '4' WHERE `postnum` = '168';
[13:37] <jrib> sudotux: is your network up?
[13:37] <bumpa_> Does anyone know why my computer makes a beep when I click the delete botton in console? Is it because I dont have any drivers for the motherboard for Ubuntu?
[13:37] <vagothcpp_> MasterZuFu: Make sure you select 'schemenamehere'
[13:38] <MasterZuFu> eh?
[13:38] <ActionParsnip> bumpa_: do you mean Konsole or Terminal?
[13:38] <sudotux> jrib, ya im using the same pc to talk to you lol
[13:38] <harrywood> ActionParsnip: Thanks. That worked \o/
[13:38] <bumpa_> ActionParsnip: the terminal
[13:38] <oCean_> MasterZuFu: remember, this is ubuntu support, mysql support in #mysql
[13:38] <FlameTai1> ActionParsnip: I just added the information you wanted on my problem
[13:38] <MasterZuFu> ok, thanks
[13:38] <HoodoGuru> @ActionParsnip http://i.imgur.com/hSrsz.jpg
[13:38] <vagothcpp_> MasterZuFu: Just google it, i am not google, google is at http://www.google.com/
[13:38] <ActionParsnip> harrywood: cool, you need to add those DNS servers in network manager or whatever you use as the file will be cut back to what it was before next reboot
[13:38] <arcsky> guys i got "flickers/quivers" on my screen can it be that ubuntu bug with gfx drivers?
[13:39] <jrib> sudotux: if there's a .deb of a kernel in your /var/cache/apt/archives/ just install that, otherwise, read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebootstrapChroot for the appropriate things you need to mount --bind (I think)
[13:39] <levin> hello everyone
[13:39] <HoodoGuru> @ActionParsnip, it stays the size that you see it in the screenshot REGARDLESS of what I do....I've tried multiple COMPLETLLEY different .conkyrc files

[13:40] <bumpa_> ActionParsnip: when i hit the delete button on keyboard
[13:40] <Milos_SD> I need help patching 2.6.35-rc2 with ureadahead 0001-trace-add-trace-events-for-open-exec-an patch
[13:40] <ManDay> I bound Hibernation to the PWR-Button on the case. When I press it, the computer goes into hibernation as expected. When I press it again, it comes back up. But I'm only back on the desktop for a few seconds and it hibernates again! When I then bring it back a second time, it stays on-line. Can anyone help?
[13:40] <ActionParsnip> bumpa_: ok then thats not clicking is it. You click with a mouse
[13:41] <ActionParsnip> bumpa_: if there is nothing to delete, the bell will sound
[13:41] <HoodoGuru> If I could find a conkyrc where it was a different size I could narrow it down...but so far they all stay that size
[13:41] <bumpa_> ActionParsnip: not in windows
[13:41] <NoPyGod> ManDay: is your power button broken? you should try unplugging the switch from the motherboard and using a screwdriver to touch the pins
[13:41] <ActionParsnip> bumpa_: what about windows?
[13:41] <BackTony> hio
[13:42] <ActionParsnip> bumpa_: do you mean cmd.exe?
[13:42] <oCean_> ManDay: sounds like a bug. You could search launchpad for related issues
[13:42] <Zeu5> hi
[13:42] <Blacktony> wahts up?
[13:42] <levin> my computer wasn't shut down
[13:42] <Zeu5> allo my archive manager cannot open .r00 file
[13:42] <ActionParsnip> HoodoGuru: very weird. I use this with some tweaks: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/conky-a-light-weight-system-monitor-for-ubuntu-linux-systems.html
[13:42] <bumpa_> ActionParsnip: no, not only in the terminal .. in web browsers, irc .. my computer is making a beep when i hit the delete button on my keyboard when theres nothing to delete
[13:42] <Zeu5> wat should i do?
[13:43] <ActionParsnip> bumpa_: sounds reasonable to me, I always blacklist that pcspkr module, gets annoying
[13:43] <bobo123> I want to copy an ntfs-partition with dd if=/dev/sda1 of=dev_hda1 bs=64K and wonder if I should do something before that command?  I havent used that partition yet since I restarted the computer so it isn't mounted, but should I write something to make sure it isn't mounted before the command is done?
[13:43] <ActionParsnip> Zeu5: sudo apt-get install rar unrar
[13:43] <bumpa_> ActionParsnip: how can i blacklist pcspkr module?
[13:43] <sudotux> Dead stick here
[13:43] <HoodoGuru> ActionParsnip, yea it's really weird...I actually tried the one you linked to and it "works" except as I said, it stays that size
[13:44] <ActionParsnip> Zeu5: you can then use gui or: rar x file
[13:44] <Zeu5> ActionParsnip: okie i go try now
[13:44] <ActionParsnip> bumpa_: gksudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
[13:45] <ActionParsnip> bumpa_: then add this line: blacklist pcspkr      save the file and close gedit then run: sudo rmmod pcspkr
[13:45] <HoodoGuru> well I guess I'll try to play with this some more, I wonder if it's some kind of bug related to the fact that I recently upgraded to 10.04
[13:45] <Axz> Guys a question i have encrypted harddrive on Fedora with LUKS can i use it on Ubuntu?
[13:45] <HoodoGuru> thanks to anyone who pitched in with a suggestion
[13:45] <Axz> i mean can u mount it on Ubuntu
[13:45] <ActionParsnip> HoodoGuru: try setting a huge font, see if it goes bigger
[13:45] <bumpa_> ActionParsnip: will it always blacklist when i boot Ubuntu after i have done that?
[13:46] <ActionParsnip> bumpa_: yes thats what the config file change does
[13:46] <bumpa_> Ok, thanx
[13:47] <Zeu5> ActionParsnip:  i think its working. thanks
[13:47] <kaddi> Hi, stupid question what packages am I missing when I get the following error message when compiling: 1:18: error: stdlib: No such file or directory. I've installed the build-essential package, but that didn't fix it.  (this is c++, g++ is installed and working)
[13:47] <HoodoGuru> ActionParsnip: yea I'll try that, so far NOTHING makes it bigger
[13:47] <ActionParsnip> Zeu5: i also recommend installing p7zip-full and p7zip-rar
[13:48] <ActionParsnip> HoodoGuru: is there a variable in the file to determine size?
[13:48] <bumpa_> Antoher question, in Windows 7 and vista when I play .avi and .mpg files in VLC Player it only consumes 1-4% CPU, but when Im using VLC Player in Ubuntu it's says in TOP that VLC consumes 20% and compiz consumes 20% -- is it because Vista and 7 decode the files in the GPU accelerator?
[13:48] <NoPyGod> it's because Windows is better than ubuntu.
[13:48] <ActionParsnip> !ot | NoPyGod
[13:49] <ManDay> NoPyGod, the power button is allright. oCean_ I didn't find anything anywhere
[13:49] <ManDay> I bound Hibernation to the PWR-Button on the case. When I press it, the computer goes into hibernation as expected. When I press it again, it comes back up. But I'm only back on the desktop for a few seconds and it hibernates again! When I then bring it back a second time, it stays on-line. Can anyone help?
[13:49] <Zeu5> ActionParsnip: i got a problem. i accidentally opened too many archive manager. and they cannot be closed now.
[13:49] <ActionParsnip> bumpa_: tried a different player?
[13:49] <NoPyGod> !ot | ZachK_
[13:49] <NoPyGod> : }
[13:49] <Zeu5> ActionParsnip: what should i do to close them?
[13:49] <bazhang> NoPyGod, stop that
[13:49] <ActionParsnip> Zeu5: you can kill them using terminal
[13:49] <HoodoGuru> ActionParsnip....yea...That's why it's weird
[13:49] <bumpa_> ActionParsnip: no, i dont know any other players for Ubuntu?
[13:49] <Zeu5> ActionParsnip: the commadn would be kill archive?
[13:49]  * NoPyGod settles down
[13:49] <ActionParsnip> bumpa_: sudo apt-get install gnome-mplayer

[13:50] <bumpa_> will try
[13:50] <shai> Hi :) I don't seem to have /boot/grub/menu.lst on a fresh installation of ubuntu ... where would it be? I want to be able to see grub menu when I boot and I currently don't.

[13:50] <ActionParsnip> Zeu5: you can use: ps -ef | grep archiver    to get the name of the process. I believe it's fileroller. You can then use: killall fileroller   for example (it may be different, the ps output will help)
[13:51] <shai> bazhang, thakns
[13:51] <ActionParsnip> shai: you need to edit /etc/default/grub   then run: sudo update-grub
[13:51] <ManDay> oCean_, self hibernation included?
[13:51] <shai> k reading the wiki
[13:51] <kaddi> Which package do I need to install, to make the stdlib from C++ available on my PC?
[13:51] <Zeu5> ActionParsnip: it worked! thanks. itwass killall file-roller
[13:52] <peimankh> There it's happening again, I reinstalled Ubuntu and turned off screensaver. The screen is flashing and moving the mouse or pressing a key does not help.
[13:52] <ActionParsnip> Zeu5: cool, glad you got the gold
[13:52] <FlameTai1> Bah
[13:53] <FlameTai1> Imma flip if I can't get these visual effects to work....
[13:53] <FlameTai1> T-T
[13:53] <oCean_> ManDay: don't know. a quick search for hibernate gives *many* related issues. If your issue is not mentioned, you could go and create your own bugreport
[13:53] <Zeu5> ActionParsnip: i already have p7zip-full jus installed p7zip-rar. thanks!!
[13:53] <shai27> Hello , i would like to install some package on my machine (deb file) and I got message : error : Dependency is not satisfiable : python2.4-psyco | python2.4 any idea how to solve this ?
[13:53] <jrib> kaddi: why?
[13:54] <peimankh> that's it I'm gonna be through with linux soon. It's my 20th attempt at migrating from osx, but always there is a new problem. :-(
[13:54] <kaddi> jrib cause I'm trying to compile a program I'm writing and ever since I added the line "#include <stdlib>", it says: error: stdlib: No such file or directory
[13:55] <jrib> kaddi: pastebin exactly what you are doing
[13:55] <bobo123> shai77, I guess those packages are not in the repo, so you must download them too from somewhere and install them first?
[13:55] <ActionParsnip> Zeu5: then you can pretty much handle any zip format :)
[13:56] <drizzt_> what is the main ubuntu repository?
[13:56] <ActionParsnip> Zeu5: except ace but theres unace for that (not seen ace since the mid 90s)
[13:56] <Zeu5> ActionParsnip: tks!
[13:56] <ActionParsnip> drizzt_: there are many, fire up software sources to see them all
[13:56] <xangua> shai27: what do you want to install in first place¿ python 2.4¿ looks quite old
[13:56] <jrib> !repos > drizzt_
[13:56] <kaddi> jrib: that's "my" code: http://pastebin.com/4dDCGY6J It compiles and works fine without line #1 and #68. With those lines I get the error message I just posted. To compile I use: g++ -o file file.C
[13:57] <shai27> xangua: its an nlp tool (for my study , yes its quite old) , can we fix it ?
[13:57] <kaddi> the complete error message is: file.C:1:18: error: stdlib: No such file or directory    file.C: In function ‘int main(int, char**)’:    file.C:68: error: ‘exit’ was not declared in this scope
[13:58] <FlameTai1> ActionParsnip: With your new suggestion should I have to reboot after doing sudo apt-get install --reinstall nvidia-kernel-common dkms ?
[13:58] <ManDay> oCean_, how would that help me? a bug which no one else appears to be having and no way to determine why it occurs?
[13:58] <ManDay> I bound Hibernation to the PWR-Button on the case. When I press it, the computer goes into hibernation as expected. When I press it again, it comes back up. But I'm only back on the desktop for a few seconds and it hibernates again! When I then bring it back a second time, it stays on-line. Can anyone help?
[13:58] <ActionParsnip> FlameTai1: doesnt hurt, did the kernel module build take place?
[13:59] <oCean_> ManDay: If no one would submit bugreports.. ah well, nvm
[13:59] <pip> Ubuntu rocks right ?
[13:59] <FlameTai1> ActionParsnip: I will post results of the terminal right now seems to have ran into an error?
[13:59] <ManDay> oCean_, yeah , nvm , maybe it would help if you first think and then suggest
[13:59] <jrib> kaddi: do you have a reference for this stdlib?
[13:59] <xangua> shai27: you will need to manually compile python 2.4 i suppose
[14:00] <ManDay> bug reports fine but bug reprots just for the sake of the report if its not helping to solve the bug is stupid
[14:00] <jrib> kaddi: i.e. how do you know such a thing should exist?
[14:00] <AlmostObsolete> hi all, just partitioning a new laptop for an ubuntu install. I'm going to dual boot with win7, I want to have a large shared partition with my home directory in it. Is this a good idea? Also, what's a good filesytem to share with windows7? Are the ubuntu ntfs drivers any good these days, how about ext4 drivers for windows?
[14:00] <bazhang> AlmostObsolete, ntfs is fine for shared
[14:00] <ActionParsnip> FlameTai1: sure, use pastebin
[14:01] <AlmostObsolete> bazhang: Thanks. Do you think it's a good idea to put my home directory there, or is that going to cause me problems?
[14:01] <kasun> Hello, does X Server restart by CTRL + ALT + BKSPACE is removed in Ubuntu Lucid? It doesn't work for me!
[14:01] <bazhang> AlmostObsolete, home Ubuntu? no use ext4
[14:01] <kaddi> jrib well, according to google yes... See for example here:http://www.cplusplus.com/reference/clibrary/cstdlib/  The solution, according to google, is to install the build-essential package which should install standard C libs.. but that didn't work for me
[14:01] <jrib> kaddi: well, no.  stdlib isn't on that page
[14:02] <oCean_> !dontzap | kasun
[14:02] <jrib> kaddi: I'm pretty sure it's not a standard header.  Maybe ##c++ can help you figure out what you want in its place
[14:02] <ActionParsnip> AlmostObsolete: i've heard it causes issues but am unsure of the details
[14:02] <AlmostObsolete> bazhang: ok, thanks for the advice. I'll keep my home directory on the ext4 partition
[14:02] <AlmostObsolete> ActionParsnip: thanks, probably better to be safe than sorry :]
[14:02] <FlameTai1> ActionParsnip: http://pastebin.com/eQQ9yjzH the terminal results
[14:02] <kaddi> jrib how did you determine that it's not a standard header? Just so I know how to do it for myself next time
[14:02] <ActionParsnip> kasun: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/enable-ctrl-alt-backspace-in-ubuntukubuntu-10-04lucid-lynx.html
[14:02] <kaddi> jrib I'll ask in ##c++ too
[14:03] <ActionParsnip> FlameTai1: it didnt build the module
[14:03] <FlameTai1> ActionParsnip: Okay so what now?
[14:03] <jrib> kaddi: I googled exit and c++ and saw people saying stdlib.h and cstdlib
[14:03] <AlmostObsolete> One more question, what's the recomended size for a swap partition these days? I've got 3GB memory and I'm installing 32bit ubuntu, will it be able to use it all if I give it a 6GB swap?
[14:04] <ActionParsnip> FlameTai1: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1036788   may help
[14:04] <bazhang> AlmostObsolete, thats too large, 3GB should do
[14:04] <kaddi> jrib I'm sorry, I don't follow, how did that tell you that this is not a c++ library?
[14:04] <AlmostObsolete> bazhang: thanks
[14:04] <ActionParsnip> AlmostObsolete: 3Gb will be fine, for more than 2Gb 1x RAM swap is fine. for less than 2Gb use 2 x RAM
[14:05] <jrib> kaddi: b/c people were saying cstdlib and stdlib.h but not stdlib.  That suggests to me it's not
[14:05] <ActionParsnip> AlmostObsolete: this will give you space to hbernate / suspend. If this is of no interest to you then have no swap
[14:05] <_entropy_> how can i reset jockey restricted hardware menager?

[14:06] <AlmostObsolete> ActionParsnip: thanks
[14:06] <ActionParsnip> drizzt_: they are all mirrors so are all equal
[14:06] <kaddi> jrib ah sorry.. was reading what I wanted to read, not what you typed. >.< thanks
[14:06] <bobo123> I wonder.. is it possible to prevent mounting of a partition? as soon as I click on my /media/C parititon in "computer" it is mounted... can I for a while make it say "No!" instead? (so I can safely copy it with dd if=/dev/sda1 of=dev_hda1 bs=64K)
[14:06] <ActionParsnip> drizzt_: i suggest you choose the one physically closest to reduce distrance travelled for the data
[14:06] <ManDay> I bound Hibernation to the PWR-Button on the case. When I press it, the computer goes into hibernation as expected. When I press it again, it comes back up.

[14:08] <fikst> on purpose
[14:09] <fikst> ubuntu is now the only os on my drive
[14:09] <fikst> i've lost grub. how do i reinstall it?
[14:09] <oCean_> ManDay: I find that on several bugreports the comments are more useful (and sometimes even provide fixes). Especially when there's hardware concerned.
[14:09] <Lurner> does anyone know how to make a pop up message in Xchat ? I know how to do it in mIRC but I don't even know how to start with Xchat
[14:09] <Lurner> fikst
[14:09] <Lurner> are you using grub1 or grub2

[14:10] <Lurner> that's the new Grub2..
[14:10] <Lurner> you have to follow the insturctions for grub2

[14:15] <spezticle> jrib: yeah, that's why i was hoping i could authenticate as the user on the server that does have access to those
[14:16] <bumpa_> also why is xorg is using 10%+ when i move a window in ubuntu?
[14:16] <jrib> spezticle: your user doesn't have access to those.  You have to use sudo to edit them.  First thing that comes to mind: use ssh -X, then you shold be able to use gedit remotely
[14:16] <monkey_dust> hi all -- a mobile phone with bluetooth question -- is it possible to hear a caller's voice in a media player? -- or is this question not for this channel?

[14:16] <the_madman> jrib: Ah, that's not quite what I needed.
[14:17] <jrib> the_madman: in what sense?
[14:18] <the_madman> jrib: Well, the computer I'm connecting to has to act as a server for the other computer. What I was hoping for was that the client would connect to the server, then present a log-in window for the user to transparently log in under an account on the server.
[14:19] <jrib> the_madman: isn't that what vnc does?  Are you actually trying to do some sort of thinclient setup?
[14:19] <the_madman> jrib: Yeah, a thin client setup.
[14:19] <jrib> the_madman: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ThinClientHowto
[14:20] <the_madman> jrib: That's one of the first pages I came to. Is it still relevant?
[14:20] <jrib> the_madman: I don't know

[14:22] <gam3> how do you run a .bin file?
[14:22] <jrib> gam3: a .bin for what?
[14:22] <the_madman> gam3: You have to make it executable before you can run it, but be careful with .bin files.
[14:22] <gam3> its a java installation package
[14:23] <gam3> the_madman, how?
[14:23] <B-r00t> gam3: chmod +x file.bin

[14:39] <kiamo> how do I get empathy to recognise my mic and webcam?
[14:39] <dsnyders> HI All!  I used to have icons on my desktop.  However now they're all gone, and even a reboot has not brought them back.  How do I get my desktop icons back?
[14:39] <gam3> rinzai, sun
[14:40] <orschiro> yeah I'm coming straight from arch but my laptop feels so good with ubuntu/mint. runs fine out of the box with great hardware support. All I need is some more recent software, that's all
[14:40] <aeon-ltd> dsnyders: are you still using nautilus?
[14:40] <rinzai> gam3, hmmm, sorry, I've never come across that exception...
[14:40] <xangua> dsnyders: alt+f2 > nautilus > enter
[14:40] <ZykoticK9> !latest | orschiro
[14:40] <orschiro> but thanks; I'll have a look at PPA. Ah and one example for a unofficial repo? or is it the same as PPA?
[14:40] <gam3> rinzai, thanks anyway
[14:40] <dsnyders> aeon-ltd, yes.
[14:40] <rinzai> gam3, np
[14:41] <sudotux> jrib, ummmmmmm to back up my files do i also need to chroot those?
[14:41] <aeon-ltd> orschiro: similar but not maintained like a ppa
[14:41] <gam3> rinzai, bye
[14:41] <jrib> orschiro: PPAs are examples of unofficial repositories.  PPAs are hosted by launchpad, that's the difference
[14:41] <funcqshun>  hi whats the best slideshow software for linux?
[14:41] <aeon-ltd> dsnyders: you may have just turned off the option of nautilus managing the desktop icons, the setting will either be in preferences or gconf manager
[14:41] <Diverdude1> funcqshun, tryout google picasa
[14:41] <Riviera> funcqshun: it's a software for displaying slideshows
[14:41] <sudotux> funcqshun, i dont know about best but OpenOffices presentation is good
[14:42] <jrib> sudotux: huh?  Why don't you just install a kernel
[14:42] <dsnyders> xangua, why the alt+f2?  Couldn't I do that just as easily in an xwindow terminal?
[14:42] <orschiro> thank you guys. Then I have some information to start with. :)
[14:42] <terry> How to install "RatioMaster.NET 0.42"
[14:42] <xangua> dsnyders: then when you close the terminal you finish nautilus...
[14:42] <terry> ?
[14:42] <sandertje> i've got a problem with my notification area/top bar. Sometimes, the order of the applets is complete gizzmo. Reloading the notification area does help sometimes, but does anyone know a more thorough solution?  I have two pics to illustrate: http://i47.tinypic.com/28slzc7.png and http://i47.tinypic.com/mv4yux.png
[14:42] <Zeu5> jrib: hi just to let you know i reformat my computer. my conclusion to my display problem is NEVER bother turning the ubuntu theme into mac
[14:42] <sudotux> jrib, cause i tried to follow that bootstrap... and well nothing is for lucid and still cant purge stuff...
[14:43] <jrib> Zeu5: I see
[14:43] <ZykoticK9> dsnyders, $ gconftool-2 --set "/apps/nautilus/preferences/show_desktop" --type bool "true"
[14:43] <Zeu5> jrib: also to say thanks.
[14:43] <Diverdude1> sandertje, i have the exact same problem
[14:43] <terry> #freebies
[14:43] <jrib> sudotux: stop being so vague, it just makes it harder for us to help you.
[14:43] <Diverdude1> sandertje, i have to keep restarting until the problem is resolved....Came in 10.04...really annoying
[14:43] <hztv_> hi!
[14:43] <sandertje> Diverdude1: have you found a way to get around it, or are you at a loss as well?
[14:43] <sandertje> ah, same problem then...
[14:43] <bumpa_> aeon-ltd, it doesnt work -- when i have compiz off it still says mplayer is consuming 29% cpu -- whats wrong?
[14:44] <Puzzlefuzzle> uirc.net
[14:44] <Diverdude1> sandertje, unfortunately i am at a loss, so i will just see if anybody has an idea
[14:44] <jrib> sudotux: I'll repeat what I said earlier: if there's a .deb of a kernel in your /var/cache/apt/archives/ just install that, otherwise, read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebootstrapChroot for the appropriate things you need to mount --bind (I think)
[14:44] <sudotux> jrib, well you saw the problems i was running into... install kernel and dump all that other crapware that it wants to throw back on my pc
[14:44] <terry> #support
[14:44] <aeon-ltd> bumpa_: is there any lag, or problems with the video?
[14:44] <jrib> sudotux: so install just the kernel.
[14:44] <hztv_> i've a question about how to see my computer content on live cd mode. i need to copy some files for backup and i don't know what address to put in the folder explorer window
[14:44] <hztv_> any help?
[14:44] <sudotux> jrib, my apt is cleaned so thats out and i did bind according to grub 2
[14:45] <kiamo> where do i go to edit the grub menu?
[14:45] <jrib> sudotux: you aren't making sense
[14:45] <aeon-ltd> hztv_: is the partition mounted?
[14:45] <bumpa_> aeon-ltd, no but ubuntu lags/glitches
[14:45] <radikal> hi everybody. i nedd hel to install divx web player on opera  in lucid lynx
[14:45] <aeon-ltd> kiamo: /boot/grub/menu.lst
[14:45] <hztv_> aeon-ltd, i don't know if it is mounted now
[14:45] <aeon-ltd> bumpa_: what graphics card?
[14:45] <bouguerra> I installed une 10.04 and when i did test of the vga for the compiz i obtained: http://img155.imageshack.us/i/screenshotvy.png/  i ve asus 1005ha. and i had the compiz running very well in linux mint!thanks.
[14:45] <bumpa_> aeon-ltd, Radeon HD 5770
[14:45] <aeon-ltd> hztv_: is it in the sidebar?
[14:46] <jetienne> upgrading from 9.10 to 10.04
[14:46] <aeon-ltd> bumpa_: opensource drivers or official?
[14:46] <kiamo> aeon-ltd, menu.lst doesnt exist in that directory for me :(
[14:46] <bumpa_> aeon-ltd, the ones from ati website (catalyst)
[14:46] <kiamo> I currently dont get a grub boot menu when i startup
[14:46] <the_madman> jrib: Problem.
[14:46] <hztv_> aeon-ltd, what sidebar? i just need to mount it and then enter the files window
[14:46] <aeon-ltd> kiamo: then your using grub2, i don't know how its managed but others might
[14:46] <the_madman> jrib: You know I was setting up a thin-client server?
[14:46] <sudotux> ok I cleaned my APT cache prior to this whole big problem! IT IS EMPTY. Second that link to debain bootstrap there is nothing for lucid, nothing makes sense for my version. Thirdly i did bind the things the !grub2 help page told me to so what else should i bind
[14:46] <jrib> the_madman: right?
[14:46] <aeon-ltd> hztv_: in nautilus fm
[14:46] <terry> How can I install"RatioMaster.NET 0.42"?
[14:47] <bumpa_> aeon-ltd, i think its properitary drivers
[14:47] <the_madman> jrib: The client machine isn't a dedicated thin-client. It's just a normal computer.
[14:47] <NoPyGod> is ubuntu desktop ok to use as a development server
[14:47] <jetienne> NoPyGod: yes
[14:47] <hztv_> aeon-ltd, i don't remember what is nautilus. how is it related?
[14:48] <NoPyGod> do the distribution lists for apt get include the server stuff?
[14:48] <the_madman> jrib: I'll have a play and look around, see what I can get it to do.
[14:48] <sudotux> jrib, ok I cleaned my APT cache prior to this whole big problem! IT IS EMPTY. Second that link to debain bootstrap there is nothing for lucid, nothing makes sense for my version. Thirdly i did bind the things the !grub2 help page told me to so what else should i bind
[14:48] <jrib> sudotux: I didn't tell you to bind anything in the !grub2 page.  If you can't understand the bootsrap page, then just download the .deb from packages.ubuntu.com and use that
[14:48] <aeon-ltd> hztv_: nautilus is the default file manager in ubuntu, the livecd automounts partitions on the HDDs
[14:48] <jetienne> NoPyGod: ubuntu desktop and ubuntu server are the same distribution, only the default packages changes
[14:48] <jetienne> NoPyGod: yes
[14:48] <bumpa_> aeon-ltd, are open source drivers available for ati graphpic card?
[14:48] <NoPyGod> thanks, very helpful
[14:48] <dsnyders> ZykoticK9, The gconftool-2 command worked.  Thanks.  I have no idea what I clicked to make them go away, but they're back.
[14:49] <ZykoticK9> dsnyders, :)
[14:49] <aeon-ltd> bumpa_: your problem is unusual, but given the recency of your graphics card i'd say this is normal until your card is better supported
[14:49] <jrib> the_madman: then you want vnc... no?
[14:49] <terry> How can I install"RatioMaster.NET 0.42"?
[14:49] <terry> How can I install"RatioMaster.NET 0.42"?
[14:49] <terry> How can I install"RatioMaster.NET 0.42"?
[14:49] <FloodBot2> terry: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[14:49] <the_madman> jrib: Well, VNC is for accessing an already running remote desktop, isn't it?
[14:49] <hztv_> aeon-ltd, but how can i access the files?
[14:49] <radikal> pliz who  can tell me how install divx web player on opera  whit ubuntu 10.04
[14:50] <magicJ> I want to stop / remove the option to add a launcher to the desktop - how do I do that
[14:50] <jrib> the_madman: not necessarily
[14:50] <dsnyders> ZykoticK9, probably some compiz setting somewhere along the line.  That software seems to cause more than its fair share of subject material here.
[14:50] <the_madman> jrib: Oooh. I'll have to look deeper into it then.
[14:51] <aeon-ltd> hztv_: is anything shown in nautilus, that is part of your HDD?
[14:51] <jrib> the_madman: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNC/Servers I think discusses what you want explicitly
[14:52] <dsnyders> magicJ, You may need to ask that on #gnome.
[14:52]  * jrib thinks that something his wrong with his zero-sized chroot...
[14:53] <baderahmed> hello please i have a question !
[14:53] <aeon-ltd> !ask
[14:53] <baderahmed> is what we can manage a project on a local server using netbeans?
[14:53] <baderahmed> is what we can manage a project on a local server using netbeans?
[14:54] <hztv_> aeon-ltd, i don't know. i can't access it with out mountinh first and then i need the address
[14:54] <aeon-ltd> hztv_: if its not being shown as mounted, 99% chance that you can't access it through any other means
[14:54] <jorge_> ubuntu non mi piace.
[14:55] <hztv_> aeon-ltd, it is lvm and i just have to mount it first
[14:55] <sudotux> Packages, for the kernal = Zero. No search to find linux-image. and to be honest i dont want any of that other isht on my computer i removed it for reasons jesus christ so difficult
[14:55] <jorge_> cè qualcuno che sa usare bene ubuntu??
[14:55] <aeon-ltd> hztv_: wait. your trying to mount a hdd over a crossover cable to another pc?
[14:55] <xangua> !it | jorge_
[14:56] <jrib> sudotux: install a kernel.  Get the .deb for linux-image-whatever-version-you-want from packages.ubuntu.com
[14:56] <magicJ> thank you dsnsnyder
[14:56] <lost> i want to send a bug report thru launchpad how? i mean to attach a file to.
[14:56] <sudotux> jrib, http://packages.ubuntu.com/lucid/kernel/ if you see the kernel there! ill buy you a beer
[14:57] <magicJ> hey dsn... I tried join #gnome - what is the channel that I want please
[14:57] <hztv_> aeon-ltd, no
[14:57] <magicJ> brb
[14:58] <jrib> sudotux: I didn't say http://packages.ubuntu.com/lucid/kernel/, I said packages.ubuntu.com: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=linux-image&searchon=names&suite=lucid&section=all
[14:58] <hztv_> how did you all got your knowlege here?
[14:58] <aeon-ltd> hztv_: if this is a lvm, you've got 2 pcs, you booted a livecd into one and you need to mount the other pc's hdd
[14:58] <sudotux> jrib,  sorry i was applying common sense logic to goto my distro and search within there
[14:58] <dsnyders> magicJ, I'm not sure.  I just think you'd have more luck on a gnome channel than here.  I don't imagine there's many people here who would want to disable that command.
[14:59] <jrib> sudotux: that logic works, just don't click "kernel"
[14:59] <aeon-ltd> hztv_: oh soz misunderstanding, i thought you meant kvm
[14:59] <lost> anyone can help me to send bug?
[14:59] <aeon-ltd> hztv_: are the partitions corrupt?, do they show in grub?
[14:59] <hztv_> aeon-ltd, i just need to mount and go to burn from Nautilus
[15:00] <hztv_> aeon-ltd, no
[15:00] <sudotux> jrib,  ok now that there is 20 kernels listed should i start with .21 the kernel lucid comes with and if so which one i am on a 32bit but there is a generic a i386 an x86 ....
[15:00] <aeon-ltd> hztv_: you can try the explorer bar if you want, it will be in /media or /mnt
[15:01] <jrib> sudotux: pick one of the generic ones.  Doesn't really matter, you can sort it out once you have *some* kernel
[15:01] <sudotux> jrib, ok
[15:02] <the_madman> Hmm. I'll carry on investigating later. Thanks everyone.
[15:02] <hztv_> aeon-ltd, ok i got it. now i need to know where to find the data of f-spot. the photos?
[15:02] <bouguerra> who use une on asus 1005h
[15:03] <sudotux> install using dpkg via commandline correct
[15:03] <jrib> sudotux: yes, in your chroot of course
[15:03] <sudotux> jrib any special switches i would need with this ?
[15:03] <hztv_> can anyone tell me of the locations of few programs data? like f-spot?
[15:04] <jrib> sudotux: just -i
[15:04] <sudotux> ok I will give it a go
[15:04] <bouguerra> how to install glxinfo ?
[15:04] <mrsun> gaah why is unbuntu do dependant of pulseaudio ?
[15:04] <loewi> hztv_: f-spot database and config is stored in ~/.config/f-spot
[15:04] <aeon-ltd> hztv_: /usr/share
[15:04] <mrsun> i cannot configure my sound if i do not have pulseaudio installed
[15:05] <robin0800> hztv_: photos in picture folder I think
[15:05] <aeon-ltd> hztv_: or ~ hidden dir.
[15:05] <mrsun> and after updating the damn kernel, i had to reinstall alsa drivers (have to compile by hand cause ubuntus is outdated) and now i have only stereo sound insted of 4.1
[15:05] <jrib> mrsun: did it work before you removed pulse?
[15:05] <mrsun> jrib, worked when i configured before i removed pulse
[15:06] <mrsun> and it "works" with pulse but some apps work, some doesnt etc
[15:06] <jrib> mrsun: why remove pulse? :/
[15:06] <mrsun> without pulse ALL apps work
[15:06] <entropy> how can i install nvidia drivers?
[15:06] <jrib> mrsun: what doesn't work?
[15:06] <mrsun> jrib, cause pulse sucks
[15:06] <mrsun> jrib, well for one i cannot have sound in wow using wine when i have pulse
[15:06] <mrsun> if i do not start that first, but then spotify doesnt wokr
[15:06] <mrsun> if i have pulse installed sound in heroes of newerth doesnt work
[15:06] <mrsun> without it it works fine
[15:06] <jrib> mrsun: that means wine isn't using pulse
[15:07] <mrsun> jrib, configured it with the pulse wine guides i can find
[15:07] <mrsun> nothing works
[15:07] <hztv_> aeon-ltd, robin0800 how can i burn the files if i don't can't remove the live cd?
[15:07] <reva_imoet> aii
[15:07] <mrsun> using just pure alsa works fine, and i do have hw mixing
[15:07] <xangua> mrsun: or you could simple have told wine to use pulse
[15:07] <mrsun> so do not need some stupid sw sound server to do that for me
[15:07] <mrsun> xangua, IVE DONE THAT
[15:07] <mrsun> and it works CRAP
[15:07] <hztv_> where can i find the tomboy data?
[15:08] <hztv_> aeon-ltd, robin0800

[15:29] <Alan> hebz0rl: well, not the last one, but one of the last ones - it specifically has a notification example
[15:29] <_entropy_> robin0800: Ok im getting slowly insane with lucid... now jockey claims nvidia drivers were installed and in use, but it is NOT...
[15:29] <Alan> hebz0rl: not sure if you can remove it though - it's a starting point anyway

[15:30] <tradakad> hafidz: I had a virtual host http://test1.ru/
[15:30] <Dr_Willis> kurrata:  the vbox setup can  access web site s and stuff? it is online?
[15:30] <ysette> Hi, I get "E: Internal Error, Could not perform immediate configuration (2) on mountall" when installing something throught the packet manager. This is the Output of the Mount-Command: http://pastie.org/993855
[15:30] <tradakad> hafidz: when I load http://test1.ru/index.php - all is ok
[15:30] <kurrata> Dr_Willis yes, i can ping outside world
[15:31] <pip> what does headless mean for jre ?
[15:31] <tradakad> hafidz: when I load http://test1.ru/ - i see the defaul page of localhost..

[15:31] <mistrynitesh> gwibber not logging in to both twitter or identica. fresh ubuntu 10.04 install
[15:32] <_entropy_> Ubuntu shouldnt be shipped with jockey since it is useless for installing any drivers and if they are installed it woudnt even detect them right or reports them as loaded but they are not...
[15:32] <hafidz> tradakad: where do u put ur index.php?
[15:33] <Dr_Willis> Jocky has worked fine for my 5+ machines.. :)
[15:33] <ysette> phylock thx, but when i type in that i get redirected to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/55958 and that is something about a wireless problem
[15:34] <tradakad> hafidz: into the root dir of my virt directory hosting
[15:34] <kurrata> Dr_Willis i did aptitude update before that. it downloaded some stuff. and when doing apt-get update seems everything okey. http://pastebin.ca/1877889
[15:35] <pip> !sudo | pip
[15:35] <_entropy_> Dr_Willis: then you had a lot of luck... just enter Jockey or restricted drivers manager in google: there are a lot of users having trouble with it (many unresolved till today...)
[15:35] <sjuxax> Hey. I am annoyed because there are no good joystick calibrators for Linux
[15:35] <pip> !root | pip
[15:35] <Dr_Willis> _entropy_:  you find lots of people with problems with lots of things.. one of the many reasons people dislike Nvidia and ATI so much is how they dont support linux as well as they should.
[15:36] <_entropy_> Dr_Willis: what would be wrong in clicking on install nvidia drivers after a clean ubuntu install? It leaves me with low graphics mode...
[15:37] <_entropy_> Dr_Willis: and yes their linux support sucks...
[15:37] <Dr_Willis> _entropy_:  a few weeks past I had where  X would come up with a message abouit being in 'low res'  but if i restarted GDM and only restarted GDM - it would come up in  the proper res. It was due to the nvidia drivers taking a few moments to load. and gdm timing out too q2uickly.
[15:38] <Dr_Willis> _entropy_:  that might be the issue.
[15:42] <ysette> phylock i dont understand the solution to the problem is there one given?
[15:43] <erkan^> !Empathy
[15:43] <_entropy_> Dr_Willis: exactly my problem...
[15:43] <erkan^> is pidgin or Empathy the best?
[15:44] <tu_nar> привет всем
[15:44] <jrib> erkan^: try both and use the one that's best for you
[15:44] <_entropy_> Dr_Willis: how did you resolve it?
[15:44] <erkan^> yes
[15:44] <lxsys> I installed the kubuntu-desktop metapackage, and now my ubuntu has been hijacked be KDE and all things kubuntu. how do I get my ubuntu back to normal??
[15:44] <erkan^> I often use a pidgin
[15:44] <erkan^> Now I try with Empathy :)
[15:45] <ysette> !pidgin
[15:45] <vishaltelangre> erkan^, try !empathy
[15:45] <erkan^> !empathy
[15:45] <ysette> !Kopete
[15:45] <kurrata> if i run apt-get or some other update while i am in chroot /test it wont mess up my main system right?
[15:45] <erkan^> I have not KDE, ysette
[15:45] <robin0800> lxsys: log out and choose gnome before log in
[15:45] <erkan^> I use a GNOME
[15:45] <erkan^> :)
[15:45] <ysette> ye so use pidgin
[15:46] <erkan^> now i use a emapthy (try ... ) :)
[15:46] <erkan^> I go cook now
[15:46] <erkan^> goodbye :)

[15:48] <vishaltelangre> But there is one thing you may not like on emathy, IRC chat doesn't avail the facility to see private messages! :(
[15:48] <NoPyGod> this might be the wrong place to ask, but i understand ubuntu is actually based on debian, and my question is - what actually makes ubuntu unique? what is it that makes ubuntu NOT debian
[15:48] <charo_> #ubuntu-fr-meeting
[15:48] <VBU-Ingvar> After upgrading to Lucid Lynx, my moodle-server doesnt work as it should. read somewere that this is because of PHP was upgraded to 5.3. Anyone who knows how to fix this?
[15:48] <lxsys> robin0800: even when i'm logged into a gnome session, the cursor is the KDE cursor and sometimes goes back to gnome, and plymouth says kubuntu and not ubuntu.
[15:49] <vishaltelangre> NoPyGod, ubuntu is humanity! Be open minded.... [....]

[16:10] <lost> theadmin: i have to write over if old one exists?
[16:10] <Dr_Willis> piero:  for mplayer, you want to enable the medibuntu repo and install the w32codecs pack. Totem i though shouyld ask.. but i rarely use totem.
[16:11] <mwen> and if wanna be able to do everything on console, how i can do that?
[16:11] <theadmin> lost: Guess so
[16:11] <Dr_Willis> mwen:  you need to read up on bash and various shell commands to do 'everything on console'

[16:15] <bobbyd2> thank you v.much :D
[16:15] <ceno> Will shutter take a screenshots of all virtual desktops?
[16:15] <Mrcheesenips> ceno, you want to take a screenshot of all the virtual desktop in one screenshot?
[16:16] <ceno> Mrcheesenips, yes sir
[16:16] <Dr_Willis> that would be a very very wide  screenshot :)
[16:16] <Mrcheesenips> ah
[16:16] <Mrcheesenips> Not sure if thats possible, you might have to go to each virtual desktop and take a screenshot of each of them
[16:16] <ceno> Dr_Willis, that would certainly impress my friends of the power of linux
[16:17] <ceno> Mrcheesenips, yeah... but that's what I wanted to avoid. I don't have much ram left
[16:17] <vishaltelangre> ceno, then how it could be: side by side, overlaps each other or anything else?
[16:17] <bobbyd2> how mush ram do you have left? @ ceno
[16:17] <nmvictor> i recently set the TERM environment variable to xterm-256colors for some compilation purposes then reverted it to xterm, unfortunately, the terminal applications mocp and cmus hang, even to the 'q'(exit) command. these are my favourite,i have reinstalled them but they still hang, will someone please help me?
[16:18] <ceno> bobbyd2, 150mb maybe.... the laptop only has 1GB
[16:18] <bobbyd2> what desktop manager are you using?
[16:18] <vishaltelangre> nmvictor, try apt-get update
[16:18] <ceno> vishaltelangre, side by side since my workspaces are 1x4
[16:18] <ceno> bobbyd2, metacity
[16:18] <bobbyd2> KDE, Gnome?
[16:18] <wise_crypt> ceno : run << free >> in terminal
[16:18] <ceno> Gnome
[16:19] <wise_crypt> ceno : it willl tell you how much ram left
[16:19] <bobbyd2> wow and your running out of ram
[16:19] <ceno> wise_crypt, yeah I know I know, my problem is that if I push the ram much further, stuff will be swapped, performance will drop...
[16:19] <bobbyd2> you must be running a lot of stuff @ ceno
[16:20] <vishaltelangre> ceno, Oh then that could you manually do after you'll got screenshots of all desktops... just recombine them side by side! [I'm also having no idea, what you're looking for!] ;)
[16:20] <ceno> bobbyd2, yeah, I'm programming a PIC, an interface with Qt creator, empathy, skype, moovida streaming grooveshark, gmail etc ad infinitum
[16:20] <bobbyd2> install bum & remove services your not using @ ceno it will improve memory performance
[16:20] <nmvictor> vishaltelangre: i did that yesterday and installed the updates, the problem has been on for four days now.
[16:21] <wise_crypt> mwen: good wallpaper to learn command line interface http://tuxtraining.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/88383-1.png
[16:21] <ceno> vishaltelangre, yeah that's the simples solution but I'd like to avoid having to do a millionxmillion image on gimp because I don't have much ram left
[16:21] <vishaltelangre> nmvictor, you had reinstalled that packages, still problem occuring.. this might mean that the packages are having bugs or some other issue!
[16:22] <bobbyd2> thats graphics card ram @ ceno, your graphics must suck @ 128mb
[16:23] <nmvictor> vishaltelangre: i dont think so, why those two and at the same time. i strongly believe its the xterm-256colors variable thing that mixed up my system
[16:23] <Jylppy> Hi! Is here anyone that could help me with a WLAN problem?
[16:23] <Dr_Willis> nmvictor:  remove/reinsrtalling packages will NOT 'clean out' any user configs that may be causing the crash. try making a new user and see if it works for them
[16:23] <nnick> .irc.gr
[16:23] <Adamantus10> I've got alltray but it doesn't seem to work. I click on Evolution and the program vanishes but there is no tray icon?
[16:23] <mwen> very good for me. thanks!
[16:23] <Dr_Willis> nmvictor:  what xterm-256colors setting/thing did you set exactly?
[16:24] <ceno> bobbyd2, what do you mean? Without compositing, i don't see how the graphics card ram could be involved
[16:24] <bobbyd2> ah, theres the problem why have you enabled compositing that will slow you down @ ceno
[16:24] <vishaltelangre> nmvictor, had you manually tried to correct that out, I mean by changin' resolution (?) and blah blah..? ;)
[16:24] <ceno> bobbyd2, I don't, that's what I mean
[16:24] <nnick> ./server nana.irc.gr
[16:25] <bobbyd2> well @ ceno I idle happily at 155mb of 1.95mb, I've had linux run on as little as 128mb something must be screwing yours up!
[16:25] <nmvictor> Dr_Willis: thanks, i changed the TERM environment variable from xterm to xterm--256colors for elinks compilation purposes, then reverted it back. Now mocp and cmus just hang on me, q, Ctrl-C and all exit command dont do anything,
[16:26] <bobbyd2> if your running out of memory somethings not setup properly
[16:26] <nmvictor> Dr_Willis: **xterm-256colors
[16:26] <SirTopHat> I'm trying to forward X windows to my Windows XP, I installed XMing and it's running, I've added all the lines it said I needed to to /etc/ssh/sshd_config, but still when I try to forward an X application I get this:
[16:26] <SirTopHat> PuTTY X11 proxy: wrong authentication protocol attemptedError: cannot open display: localhost:10.0
[16:26] <Dr_Willis> nmvictor:  if you exported TERM back,  and dident edit any config files to make it permenet. then it shouldent be  staying set.
[16:26] <eev2> Hey guys, I was wondering how I can make grub be as verbose as possible. So far I removed the quiet splash from /etc/default/grub but I don't think I'm getting enough messages.

[16:26] <SirTopHat> I did add X11UseLocalhost yes to the file
[16:26] <theadmin> eev2: You can't get more than this.
[16:27] <Dr_Willis> nmvictor:  export TERM=xterm          should be the 'default' (at least it is on gnome-terminal)
[16:27] <bobbyd2> lol, that would be the other machine with 2gb of ram and a quad core @ ceno
[16:27] <eev2> What about after grub finishes and I login? Can I do something then?
[16:27] <SirTopHat> this is just irritating
[16:27] <theadmin> eev2: Huh?
[16:27] <pip> How to open .PPS files ?
[16:28] <eev2> After I login to the desktop, I sense that my computer is sitting idle for some time
[16:28] <theadmin> pip: PowerPoint Slideshows? Openoffice should open those
[16:28] <phylock> pip - openoffice presentation
[16:28] <nmvictor> Dr_Willis: actually i just commented out the "export TERM=xterm-256colors" line for my /etc/*.env.config and ~/.env.config files, let me try exporting back xterm , thanks
[16:28] <vishaltelangre> eev2, what you think.. want to view something special for that while?
[16:28] <eev2> I want to see what is running at that time or where is stuck
[16:28] <pip> what about other software ?
[16:29] <Tammzak> Hello
[16:29] <pip> Like abiword
[16:29] <theadmin> pip: Meh, abiword is for text processing
[16:29] <wise_crypt> brb
[16:29] <pip> ok
[16:29] <eev2> Well, here is what's going on: the desktop appears and panel etc but the notification area is empty
[16:30] <theadmin> eev2: Well it might take a while for all those apps to start
[16:30] <eev2> The after about 20 sec, the icons start appearing
[16:30] <erUSUL> eev2: ~/.xsession-errors ¿?
[16:30] <Tammzak> exit
[16:30] <Dr_Willis> nmvictor:  why diod you even set it that way? You just needed to do uit from the command line for the terminal you needed it in
[16:30] <Dr_Willis> nmvictor:  you dident need to set it system wide
[16:31] <vishaltelangre> eev2, startup background processes... Why not go to single user mode for that while!
[16:31] <Dr_Willis> nmvictor:  where are these .env.config and /etc/*.env.config comming from? i dont even have those on my ubuntu install
[16:31] <eev2> vishaltelangre: how to do that?
[16:32] <vishaltelangre> eev2, alt+ctrl+f1
[16:32] <eev2> Btw, is anyone getting the message init: procps main process terminated with status 255
[16:32] <vishaltelangre> eev2, to come to GUI, alt+ctrl+f7
[16:33] <nmvictor> Dr_Willis: i just learnt that after the deed was long done, and the /etc/*.env.config files was just a wild card to point to the environment config files, /etc/environment and /etc/bash.bashrc. thanks. Now signing out ....(be back in a while)
[16:34] <Kottalizer> Hello everyone! I'd like to add a package to the package manager, how do I do that?
[16:34] <Lalitha> how do i login many gmail accounts at the same time in firefox ??  ( i know i can use different browsers)
[16:34] <theadmin> Kottalizer: You have a package and you just want to add it? Install it
[16:34] <forceflow> Lalitha: one in private mode?
[16:34] <forceflow> Lalitha: or create several firefox profiles ...
[16:34] <eev2> vishaltelangre: I have to configure console-setup? Is that the only thing I have to do?
[16:34] <Dr_Willis> Lalitha:  theres some firefox extensions to do that. And i have a gnome panel applet that also can do that.
[16:34] <Kottalizer> theadmin: I mean, so everyone can search and install it.
[16:34] <Lalitha> forceflow, if i go to private mode, the existing mode will be off
[16:35] <Lalitha> Dr_Willis, can you tell me about panel app ?
[16:35] <theadmin> Kottalizer: You'd probably have to send it to Ubuntu developers.
[16:35] <radikal> hello
[16:35] <forceflow> Lalitha: can't you open a new window and then go private?
[16:35] <vishaltelangre> Kottalizer, Add it to your PPA
[16:35] <Kottalizer> vishaltelangre: In Launchpad?
[16:35] <automatical> hey guys, i appear to have a problem, root can see my audio cards but my main user cannot (my main user is added to the group `audio`)
[16:35] <Lalitha> forceflow, i want in same window > different tabs
[16:35] <mwen> i got 2 computer running Windows and 2 others running ubuntu 10.4, i can see window computer, but not ubuntu
[16:35] <padhu> Dr_Willis: name of the applet
[16:35] <Mahdi> Hi ... Is there a feature rich programming IDE for linux ?
[16:35] <Mahdi> Something like Microsoft Visual Studio ?
[16:35] <Mahdi> at least with autocomplete and debuging features ...
[16:35] <Dr_Willis> Lalitha:  gmail-notifier - got it from webupd8.org i think. it adds some items to the little MAIL menu at the top right that showes the emails for my gmail accounts
[16:35] <forceflow> search for extensions then, don't know, tbh
[16:35] <Lalitha> Dr_Willis, or the addon ?
[16:35] <theadmin> Mahdi: Netbeans
[16:36] <forceflow> Mahdi: Eclipse...
[16:36] <theadmin> Mahdi: It's kinda huge though :/
[16:36] <Dr_Willis> Lalitha:  the ff addon - i found at the ff extensions page.
[16:36] <vishaltelangre> Kottalizer, yeah.. But not sure, is that the right place for your packages! :|
[16:36] <Lalitha> Dr_Willis, i want to view the inboxes. i too have that from webupd8.org
[16:36] <Kottalizer> vishaltelangre: Ok, thank you, I'll try that.
[16:36] <mwen> Dr_Willis: i got 2 computer running Windows and 2 others running ubuntu 10.4, i can see window computer, but not ubuntu
[16:36] <Dr_Willis> Lalitha:  theres also the google gadgets that have some features like that
[16:36] <radikal> hey im try to install divx on opera OS ubuntu 10.04 and cant i trid in to diferent ways , some body know how to do that
[16:37] <nmvictor>  "Google ordered all its employees to switch to Linux or Mac, proving to my friends what we once argued about, that after all this year, WINDOWS IS STILL TOTALLY UNRELIABLE" source Internet>> http://www.google.com/search?q=Google shakes off windows
[16:37] <forceflow> radikal: you don't need divx codec for anything ...
[16:37] <Lalitha> Dr_Willis, thanks for the info. But can you please check your addons and tell me its na,me ? please ?
[16:37] <forceflow> radikal: mplayer or vlc media player will play divx movies just fine
[16:37] <Dr_Willis> mwen:  you   are refering to seeing ;shared' directories? You did install samba on the linxu box and set uo some shares?
[16:37] <Dr_Willis> Lalitha:  i dont rember.  I removed it after finding the panel applet
[16:37] <radikal> aaaaaah oh sorrry  is web player divx
[16:37] <forceflow> radikal: hmm, don't know about that, then
[16:38] <Mahdi> theadmin,forceflow : Thanks ... Can I use netbeans or eclips for C++ programming ?
[16:38] <sef> trying to install 10.04 on a Lenovo S12, getting a blank screen during install.  I think I had this problem before, got an answer before, got it working and now have forgotten :)
[16:38] <Lalitha> Dr_Willis, ok. Thank yu very much
[16:38] <Mahdi> Do they support autocomplete of linux libraries ?
[16:38] <Mahdi> Witch IDE do you prefer ?
[16:38] <Lalitha> Dr_Willis, Bye.
[16:38] <sef> are logs of this channel kept anywhere?
[16:38] <forceflow> Mahdi: I use Eclipse for C++ programming
[16:38] <Dr_Willis> !logs | sef
[16:38] <theadmin> Mahdi: Yes, both can be used for CPP. I don't really preffer any of them since my main programming language is Python :/
[16:38] <mwen> Dr_Willis: no. network. i see windows network.
[16:39] <mehrzad> :) Python \m/
[16:39] <radikal> but in firefox work good . and opera don't work
[16:39] <vishaltelangre> radikal, why you use Opera still... Firefox is powerful, inbuilt and do everything automatically what you're looking for!
[16:39] <sef> thanks!
[16:39] <forceflow> Mahdi: haven't tried Netbeans for C++, tbh. I like it for Java, but it's quite a heavy IDE.
[16:40] <radikal> yeah i know and  use firefox whit  add ons  but just wanna try opera
[16:40] <forceflow> radikal: there are .deb packages for opera, I think
[16:40] <Dr_Willis> mwen:  see if the machines can 'ping' each other. If so then they are networked and 'seeing' each other.
[16:40] <theadmin> forceflow: That's not the problem, he has some plugin issues
[16:40] <radikal> and looking for web player divx o un compatible
[16:41] <SirTopHat> I've noticed Ubuntu lets security get in the way of customizability.
[16:41] <Dr_Willis> mwen:  you mauy also want to install putty and winscp on the windows box's and ssh server on the linux machines so you can transfer stuff about  without messing with samba and 'shares'
[16:41] <vishaltelangre> radikal, all are you trying are non-free and much not-compatible w/ linux!
[16:41] <Dr_Willis> SirTopHat:  seems  better to do it that way then the reverse...
[16:41] <leshank> SirTopHat, you're implying that security should come place to customizability? Many would disagree
[16:42] <SirTopHat> you should be able to have security if you want it, but you shouldn't be forced to have it if you don't want it.
[16:42] <theadmin> SirTopHat: Nobody forces you for anything
[16:42] <leshank> what are you trying to do that security is preventing?
[16:42] <SirTopHat> For example, I can't set certain files to mode 777 or it won't work.
[16:42] <Dr_Willis> SirTopHat:  you are free to go use other disrtos if you want.. ior start turning stuff off... go for it...
[16:42] <padhu> mwen:  you must install Unixware file/printer sharing protocol in your windows too
[16:43] <vishaltelangre> SirTopHat, But never disable to get regular security updates though you've right to customize all that stuff...
[16:43] <jrib> SirTopHat: erm, what files?  It's rare to actually want such a thig
[16:43] <jrib> thing even
[16:43] <leshank> Pretty sure any setting/feature can be disabled/enabled/tweaked as you see fit, although perhaps not through a GUI
[16:43] <Dr_Willis> SirTopHat:  you are being vague. Do you have an actual tech support type question?
[16:43] <theadmin> Any good free T2S (text2speech) system which would give out files as a result, prefferably .wav or .ogg
[16:43] <SirTopHat> I did a chmod 777 /* -R one time
[16:43] <theadmin> ?
[16:43] <theadmin> SirTopHat: WOAH
[16:43] <jrib> SirTopHat: no one would ever want to do that.
[16:43] <mwen> Dr_Willis: when i type : ping jeudy-desktop. R: unkown host...
[16:43]  * erUSUL rolls eyes
[16:43] <LjL> theadmin: festival?
[16:43] <SirTopHat> it took a while to reinstall things that complained about their file's permissions
[16:43] <leshank> ...
[16:43] <Dr_Willis> mwen:  use the IP# not hostname
[16:43] <theadmin> LjL: I didn't think that's free, actually, any links?
[16:44] <radikal> well  u have reason
[16:44] <LjL> theadmin: it's free, and in the repositories, sudo apt-get install festival
[16:44] <radikal>  i keep firefox
[16:44] <mwen> Dr_Willis: how can i get it?
[16:44] <Dr_Willis> mwen:  look on the machines and use the ipconfig or ifconfig commands.
[16:44] <leshank> SirTopHat, why?
[16:44] <TroN-0074> what could be the reason why I lost monitor input in ubuntu 10.04?? I mean the monitor sometimes just goes blank after a while and the only way to bring it back is rebooting
[16:44] <jrib> theadmin: yeah, I'm waiting to get an italian voice for it so I can have it read all of LjL's messages with an accent (more authentic)
[16:45] <armin_> hi guys, how can i set my linein (microphone input) so it can be used as an ouput (for speakers).any ideas?
[16:45] <SirTopHat> I wanted to make it as insecure as possible.
[16:45] <SirTopHat> but it just wouldn't let me.
[16:45] <phylock> theadmin - try espeak
[16:45] <vishaltelangre> radikal, If you've got any problem w/ Firefox, then people surely help you out to solve it!
[16:45] <LjL> jrib: there *is* an italian voice for it in the repos. it's terrible though ;(
[16:45] <jrib> SirTopHat: you should reinstall the whole system if you haven't
[16:45] <SirTopHat> why? it still works fine, I fixed everything.
[16:45] <schlaftier> theadmin: or gespeaker which is a GUI to espeak
[16:46] <radikal> mmm whit firefox i dont have problems  for the moment
[16:46] <jrib> SirTopHat: you *think* you fixed everything.  Anyway, why did you want to do that?  Why do you want it to be insecure?
[16:46] <radikal>  hahaha
[16:46] <skeebo>  Is there a way to run "indicator-applet / me-menu" as part of the task-bar in tint2? or can it only be run as a gnome-applet on the gnome bar?
[16:46] <theadmin> schlaftier: GUI? Who needs that :/
[16:46] <Dr_Willis> !info tint2
[16:46] <SirTopHat> eh, just felt like it.
[16:46] <Dr_Willis> Hmm does tint2 have a 'system tray' ?
[16:46] <jrib> SirTopHat: I see
[16:46] <skeebo> Dr_Willis: yes it does
[16:46] <schlaftier> theadmin: then just espeak
[16:46] <vishaltelangre> SirTopHat, Then you're testing out ubuntu to check what will happen if none of security updates will available then after... I'm right?
[16:47] <Dr_Willis> or whatever they acll that thing now. I would think those apps when ran would go there if it was set up right
[16:47] <SirRedTooth> my keyboard keys are all messed up, a friend suggested changing something in control pannel, but i run ubuntu
[16:47] <SirTopHat> one day I'm going to set up a server with passwordless accounts like "admin" and "mail" and see how long it takes for somebody to get in.
[16:47] <LjL> theadmin: perhaps you might be confusing it with mbrola, which is not entirely free (it's in multiverse). but festival is about as good as you can get with free ones.
[16:47] <theadmin> I'm downloading it from their page now.
[16:47] <skeebo> Dr_Willis: that's what i thought, but I don't know what command to run in order to start the indicator-applet-session
[16:47] <Dr_Willis> BBL
[16:48] <Dr_Willis> skeebo:  no idea.  check ps ax  Output when its running perhaps? :)
[16:48] <skeebo> ty
[16:48] <vishaltelangre> SirRedTooth, ha ha!!!
[16:48] <CT1> Hi, I know this isn't ubuntu specific but perhaps someone has some help?  I have a manual for a device in pdf in Russian, can I translate it to english somehow? or is there a way to copy/paste text into google translate?
[16:48] <phre> how can i modify an ntfs partition under linux ?
[16:48] <phre> hi
[16:48] <uoonoo> hi
[16:49] <erUSUL> CT1: pdftotext
[16:49] <erUSUL> !ntfs | phre
[16:49] <phre> what distro i need ?
[16:49] <CT1> erUSUL: thankyou
[16:49] <lost> finally adobe flash made it!! everybody give the beta one a try
[16:49] <erUSUL> !find pdfto test
[16:49] <phre> !ntfs-3g
[16:49] <erUSUL> !find pdftotext
[16:49] <phre> !FUSE
[16:49] <vishaltelangre> CT1, copy content from your pdf file, translate it and make a pdf of english version w/ open office
[16:49] <CT1> erUSUL: in what way do you want to "modify" the partition?
[16:50] <ballon> ciao a tutti
[16:50] <erUSUL> CT1: phre wants; no me :)
[16:50] <ballon> l'uomo nell'ombra
[16:50] <CT1> oops :p
[16:50] <phre> in what distro live can i found ntfs-3g ?
[16:50] <BluesKaj> SirRedTooth, try system settings/regional&language/keyboard layout/enable keyboard layouts , the choose your locale to suit the keyboard you want.
[16:53] <erUSUL> phre: ubuntu has ntfs-3g
[16:53] <CT1> vishaltelangre: thankyou.  I'll try it.  Thanks for pointing me in the right direction
[16:53] <phre> thanks
[16:53] <rekoil> hello
[16:53] <rekoil> anyone here got a mac?
[16:53] <schlaftier> !ask | rekoil
[16:53] <rekoil> i can't use the optical output on my mac anymore
[16:54] <vishaltelangre> !find ntfs-3g | phre
[16:54] <rekoil> lol
[16:54] <rekoil> kk
[16:54] <rekoil> and i won't say anymore either
[16:54] <phre> :)
[16:54] <rekoil> cause i just recently installed ubuntu
[16:54] <rekoil> and haven't really been able to get it to work the way i want it to
[16:54] <dassouki> is there an easy way to add X-less ubuntu to the command prompt ? i'm going on a few 10 hour flights and all i'm gonna be doing is coding .. i won't need any gui
[16:55] <vishaltelangre> CT1, See you in most wanted's list of *ackers! :)
[16:55] <rekoil> dassouki, just kill the x-server after booting
[16:56] <vishaltelangre> rekoil, This is a channel for Ubuntu, not for mac! :D
[16:56] <rekoil> vishaltelangre, ...i mean the hardware
[16:56] <rekoil> when i say mac, i mean the hardware
[16:56] <rekoil> not the operating system which incidentally isn't actually called mac
[16:56] <tocm> dassouki ,remove x session manager such as gdm or kdm
[16:56] <anurag_> hi guys
[16:57] <rekoil> vishaltelangre, i would love to switch to ubuntu completely, but i can't until it can actually do all the things i use my macbook pro for
[16:57] <dassouki> tocm: i don't want to remove it, i want to still be able to boot into gdm when i want too, i just want to add an option that boots without x
[16:57] <rekoil> one of those things is optical audio
[16:58] <rekoil> under os x, it will output to the speakers, until i plug a cable into the mini-toslink or the 3.5mm jack (both are the same hole), it would then switch to outputting to the detected cable
[16:58] <vishaltelangre> rekoil, Oh let's ask your queries here all about you wanting to implement w/ your ubuntu...
[16:58] <andu> hi
[16:59] <rekoil> why so hostile? I'm just trying to explain the problem
[16:59] <tocm> dassouki,another way is to switch to different run level,that can works as well
[16:59] <rekoil> the problem is that pulseaudio seems to detect several sound cards, which I guess may be the case, i don't exactly know how the innards of my mac look
[17:00] <t3chkommie> hey guy squirrelmail is ALWAYS getting a connection dropped by imap server error ever since i upgraded to 10.04 any sugestions?
[17:00] <llutz> !runlevel | tocm
[17:00] <rekoil> i can't exactly explain the problem I guess, which is why i was asking if there was anyone in here with a macbook pro
[17:01] <rekoil> cause they'd know what i'm talking about
[17:01] <xcode[I|O]> who can help me, i can't compile linux kernel version 1 in ubuntu 10.04
[17:01] <tkbros__> is there any english 2 bengali offline dictionary is available for ubuntu?
[17:01] <Mahdi> Then what about Monodevelope or Code::Blocks ... anyonetried that for C++ programming ?
[17:01] <geri> Hi
[17:01] <musictoto> hi all! is the AMD Athlon 2650e processor working with ubuntu ?
[17:02] <rekoil> musictoto, if it works with the linux kernel, it would work with ubuntu
[17:02] <xcode[I|O]> who can help me, i can't compile linux kernel version 1 in ubuntu 10.04?
[17:02] <tocm> OTZ,i remembered it works on my debian machine,but i don't know it cannot works on ubuntu,so ...
[17:02] <Guest62249> hi
[17:02] <t3chkommie> anyone know whats causing my squirrelmail to have a dropped connection from my imap server?
[17:02] <musictoto> rekoil: do you know the irc channel for kernel questions ?
[17:03] <vishaltelangre> tkbros__, try to spend your much timing in translating ubuntu apps on Launchpad for Bengali guys! I'm Marathi from Maharashtra
[17:03] <Dr_Willis> dassouki:  you can use the 'text' option to the kernel in /etc/default/grub and get a text bootup session
[17:03] <rekoil> musictoto, i'm afraid not, but it's a standard x86/x86_64 processor, so i don't see why it shouldn't work
[17:04] <t3chkommie> anyone know of maybe a squirrelmail/ubuntu server irc channel is?
[17:04] <musictoto> rekoil: thanks
[17:05] <t3chkommie> beuller?
[17:06] <TMac> Hey guys, I put Ubuntu onto my sister's netbook, and it works fine, but when she tries to boot into Windows it flashes the BSOD and then reboots. What should I do?
[17:06] <lost_> how to change mac address permanantly ?
[17:06] <Young> where is Dahu?
[17:06] <xcode[I|O]> who can help me, i can't compile linux kernel version 1 in ubuntu 10.04?
[17:06] <geri> t3chkomie: there is a channel named #squirrelmail
[17:06] <t3chkommie> geri thanks!
[17:06] <vishaltelangre> TMac, was that window boots normally after installing ubuntu?
[17:07] <geri> yw
[17:07] <Dr_Willis> xcode[I|O]:  you are trying to compile a 10+ yr old kernel?
[17:07] <theadmin> TMac: We do not support Windows. If it displays a BSOD, boot was done fine => GRUB has no problems => It's a Windows issue
[17:07] <TMac> vishaltelangre, XP was fine, I installed Ubuntu, now it's not.
[17:07] <xcode[I|O]> Dr_Willis, linux kernel v1.0
[17:07] <TMac> XP never worked when ubuntu was installed.
[17:08] <theadmin> xcode[I|O]: That's sooooo old, really :/
[17:08] <Dr_Willis> xcode[I|O]:  dare we ask why you want to?
[17:08] <maali> i fell for the 'upgrade 9.10 to 10.04'-trap (after doing that ubuntu didnt wanna boot), but stuff works again \o/
[17:08] <vishaltelangre> TMac, viewing bootloader to show list of installed OSs?
[17:08] <xcode[I|O]> theadmin, i want to know more about linux kernel
[17:08] <xcode[I|O]> theadmin, how it work
[17:08] <TMac> Yeah, GRUB shows up fine and lists everything it's supposed to.
[17:08] <theadmin> xcode[I|O]: Just how would THAT help?
[17:09] <TMac> I pick Windows, it shows the splash screen for a few seconds, then BSODs.
[17:09] <vishaltelangre> !kernel | xcode[I|O]
[17:09] <theadmin> TMac: That's not an Ubuntu problem then, take it to #windows
[17:09] <tau> hey, is there another generator for dvds like mandvd ?
[17:09] <Dr_Willis> tau:  i use devede to convert videos to dvd video
[17:09] <xcode[I|O]> linux kernel v1.0 error with header file in C
[17:09] <vishaltelangre> TMac, this means your windows got corrupted, reinstall it!
[17:10] <geri> just installed xubuntu on my netbook: pretty good
[17:10] <TMac> @theadmin It just seems like Ubuntu gummed something up since the only thing between Windows working and not working was the Ubuntu installation.
[17:10] <TMac> I'll go check out #windows though.
[17:10] <tau> Dr_Willis:  i tried this but it seems too complex.
[17:10] <geri> a lot better than UNE
[17:10] <geri> ihave to say that
[17:10] <theadmin> TMac: Well, it boots so GRUB does it's thing, nothing more Ubuntu can have done
[17:10] <tau> Dr_Willis:  i don't understand much about multimidia.
[17:10] <Dr_Willis> tau:  oh? I can get a avi to dvd in about 30 sec.. and get it encoding...

[17:11] <vishaltelangre> TMac, after reinstalling windows, rescue your hidden ubuntu as your MBR's first partition may vanish resulting GRUB will remove | you could get it back w/ your ubuntu live cd
[17:11] <xcode[I|O]> who can help me?
[17:11] <dassouki> Dr_Willis: thanks ...
[17:12] <Dr_Willis> tau:  under files _> add a file -> then 'adjust disk ussage' to use the wole disk if needed -- and continue. :) thats the basics
[17:12] <geri> xcode: with what?
[17:12] <Dr_Willis> xcode[I|O]:  i doubt if anyone in here is going to be able to help you compile kernel verison 1.0
[17:12] <TMac> @vishaltelangre, @theadmin - You think a reinstall is necessary? OK. Luckily (I guess) it's new so there's actually not  much on there.
[17:13] <theadmin> TMac: But that will ruin GRUB so you'll end up having to recover that as well... :/
[17:13] <xcode[I|O]> Dr_Willis, why?
[17:13] <Dr_Willis> xcode[I|O]:  why would ANYONE in here have messed with that old a kernel?  there is a kernel channel i imagine.
[17:13] <geri> yeah, k 1.0 is quite outdated :)
[17:13] <Dr_Willis> xcode[I|O]:  you jhavent even mentioned why you are messing with it.
[17:14] <TMac> @theadmin :P I've reinstalled GRUB before though, so it shouldn't be that bad... Just frustrating.
[17:14] <xcode[I|O]> Dr_Willis, it small, simple
[17:14] <phre> an editor for viewing file in HEX mode ?
[17:14] <Dr_Willis> xcode[I|O]:  so?
[17:14] <hanlin> does anyone know how to maintain the aspect ratio of videos playing in mplayer when resizing? I want black borders added to keep the aspect ratio instead of stretching the video to fit the screen
[17:14] <xcode[I|O]> Dr_Willis, that good for me to know about linux kernel
[17:14] <Dr_Willis> xcode[I|O]:  and written for a c compiler that has 10+ yrs of changes.
[17:15] <phre> how can i use to modify binary file in ubuntu ?
[17:15] <xcode[I|O]> Dr_Willis, the ideal is exist
[17:15] <geri> hanlin: on the command line or are u using some frontend?
[17:15] <Dr_Willis> phre:  theres a few 'binary editors' in the package managers
[17:15] <hanlin> geri: command line
[17:15] <geri> let me check the manpages
[17:15] <phre> Dr_Willis: please tell me one
[17:16] <Dr_Willis> phre:  i think theres some vi variant/mode that can do it.. other then that. ive not used any in years
[17:16] <mwen_> i just installed wine, do i have to extract files .exe to run them?
[17:16] <llutz> xcode[I|O]: use a 16 year old linux-distribution to compile it or try to get your current setup on a similar state
[17:16] <phre> ok
[17:16] <theadmin> mwen_: No, open them with WINE
[17:16] <Dr_Willis> mwen_:  wine /path/to/whatever.exe
[17:16] <theadmin> mwen_: Right click an exe file, go to Properties, on "Open With" tab choose WINE
[17:17] <mwen_> ok.

[18:18] <transformer7> So, conclusion...bye ubuntu and hello again windows
[18:18] <MTughan> I'm trying to see if I can get sound output working on a MacBook. Trying to run Ubuntu 10.04, lspci shows an audio card in the Nvidia MCP79 chipset, but Pulseaudio shows a dummy output. Would a full install get more drivers for this, or is there some PA configuration to do?
[18:18] <vishaltelangre> :quit Bye, good night (according to India Standard Time) folks!
[18:18] <llutz> theadmin: set them on hold

[18:19] <theadmin> llutz: Oh cool thanks, any way to do this without aptitude but by apt-get?
[18:19] <theadmin> bkw: noquiet I suppose
[18:19] <Juniksz> hello! Finch / Pidgin is not able to send files over P2P?
[18:20] <dole> hi there
[18:20] <llutz> theadmin: "echo package hold|dpkg --set-selections" apt-get hasn't an own option for that
[18:20] <bkw> theadmin: ok, I will test that. thanks.
[18:20] <llutz> theadmin: to revert "echo package install|dpkg --set-selections"
[18:21] <dole> I wish to recover some daca with photorec(so i'm not allowed to write anything on hdd) I have a cd with ubuntu, but i don';t have live cd option, only install.....what can i do?

[18:21] <theadmin> dole: Well, you'll need a LiveCD
[18:21] <theadmin> MTughan: I think he has an Alternate disk
[18:21] <Dr_Willis> dole:  Unless you are using the alt-insatller live cd. not the desktop cd.
[18:21] <Dr_Willis> dole:  you may want to make a bootable flash drive to work from
[18:22] <dole> iu don;t have any flash drive available now
[18:22] <MTughan> theadmin: Ah, I see.
[18:22] <dole> and no blanck d's

[18:22] <Dr_Willis> dole:  so where were you goign to copy the data to anyway ionce you recover it?
[18:22] <xangua> dole: then use the dvd
[18:22] <theadmin> dole: Well, you can get a LiveDVD as well
[18:22] <bbq^> UNetBootin
[18:22] <abuayyoub> howdy, i was hoping someone could help me with a problem im having with hella nzb. anyone here know anything about usenet?
[18:23] <xand> a CD image will burn on a DVD just fine anyway
[18:23] <NewUsrr> xmy: still doesnt work :(
[18:23] <dole> where from can i get a livedvd?
[18:23] <dole> I'll save the data on external HDD
[18:23] <Danborg> ok so I just gave up on eth0 and added an eth1 in player and now it works.  (If anyone is curious)
[18:23] <Dr_Willis> dole:  You can burn the live cd iso to a DVD disk (or so ive heard)
[18:23] <MTughan> dole: I have a LiveCD burned to a DVD here. Optical drives don't care one way or the other if they can read both.
[18:24] <Dr_Willis> dole:  ive had issues with that in the past.. but not tried it in ages. :)
[18:24] <MTughan> Dr_Willis: You can. I've done it, have it booted up now in fact.
[18:24] <insign> Can I import hardware drivers from a installed Madriva to put on a Ubuntu/Gnome?
[18:24] <Dr_Willis> insign:  not really
[18:24] <theadmin> dole: http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/alternative-download#dvd
[18:24] <insign> Dr_Willis, no way?
[18:25] <xmy> NewUsrr:still doesn't work? you r sure u have download *.tar.gz file?
[18:25] <Dr_Willis> insign:  if drivers exist for somthing on mandriva they prioberly exist for  the ubuntu system as well.
[18:25] <bbq^> insign: if you have the source package for the driver, you can put them onto your ubuntu install and recompile them just to be sure
[18:25] <sam_2007> Anyone have ideas on how to convert flash files to AVI????????????  Thanks (^-^)
[18:25] <dole> ty theadmin
[18:25] <Dr_Willis> insign:  the use of the term 'import' drivers is a little vage.
[18:25] <Danborg> Ubuntu doesn't seem to like the MAC address changing.  (At all!)
[18:25] <abuayyoub> anyone here know anything about nzb files and usenet??
[18:25] <theadmin> sam_2007: flash being sfw or flv?
[18:25] <Dr_Willis> sam_2007:  winff,ffmpeg, mencoder, can do it. and other front ends to those tools
[18:25] <sam_2007> flv
[18:26] <theadmin> sam_2007: ffmpeg should work just fine
[18:26] <sam_2007> Dr willis  What front end tools ?
[18:26] <Dr_Willis> sam_2007:  winff for one
[18:26] <sam_2007> winff not working
[18:26] <Dr_Willis> sam_2007:  i just made a nautilus script -> i right click on a flv and select convert to avi :)
[18:26] <Dr_Willis> check the ffmpeg docs then. it can do it
[18:27] <MTughan> I'm trying to get sound output working on a MacBook. Trying to run Ubuntu 10.04 x86_64, lspci shows an audio card in the Nvidia MCP79 chipset, but Pulseaudio shows a dummy output. Would a full install get more drivers for this, or is there some PA configuration to do?
[18:27] <mowe> abuayyoub: use nzbget
[18:27] <sam_2007> i right click on it but no options to convert
[18:27] <bbq^> MTughan: you may need to do some extra work to get it all going
[18:27] <Dr_Willis> sam_2007:  because its a script I made....
[18:28] <sam_2007> ok ....  so....
[18:28] <sam_2007> what should i do?
[18:28] <MTughan> bbq^: Any idea what I'd have to do? Or a site I can go to?
[18:28] <mowe> abuayyoub: it's like rtorrent for nzb-files-- works like a charm
[18:28] <bbq^> not really MTughan i don't have a Mac so can't really help there sorry :/
[18:29] <Dr_Willis> sam_2007:  use ffmpeg
[18:29] <judgen> Any tips how to purge all my DE's and all their settings and apps... I screwed them up badly.. and now i want to run cli only..
[18:29] <xmy> NewUsrr: u have to download the *.tar.gz package but rpm or deb package,and a file named libflashplayer.so is included,copy it to ~/.mozilla/plugins and restart firefox.I used this way to install flashplayer all the time.
[18:29] <abuayyoub> mowe yea? awesome i have tried so many programs all suck. lottanzb is good but it locks up after every download.
[18:30] <Danborg> Ubuntu doesn't seem to like the MAC address changing.  (At all!)
[18:30] <insign> Mandriva came with my notebook, but it uses KDE and it is very ugly for me to use.
[18:30] <Dr_Willis> sam_2007:  example command line (from my script) --> ffmpeg -i "/media/SHOWBOOK/Animation_Shorts/Wouldn_t_It_Be_Great_if_Everybody_Had_a_Gun_.flv" -f avi -r 29.97 -vcodec libxvid -vtag XVID -s 640x360 -aspect 16:9 -maxrate 1800k -b 1500k -qmin 3 -qmax 5 -bufsize 4096 -mbd 2 -bf 2 -flags +4mv -trellis -aic -cmp 2 -subcmp 2 -g 300 -acodec libmp3lame -ar 48000 -ab 128k -ac 2

[18:31] <sam_2007> dr willis....  nevermind. hehe
[18:31] <Dr_Willis> sam_2007:  rather straight forward.. replace the file names.. and away it goes
[18:32] <Dr_Willis> ffmpeg -i "foo.flv" -f avi -r 29.97 -vcodec libxvid -vtag XVID -s 640x360 -aspect 16:9 -maxrate 1800k -b 1500k -qmin 3 -qmax 5 -bufsize 4096 -mbd 2 -bf 2 -flags +4mv -trellis -aic -cmp 2 -subcmp 2 -g 300 -acodec libmp3lame -ar 48000 -ab 128k -ac 2 "foo.avi"
[18:32] <Dr_Willis> Night all.

[18:37] <ubuntero> hello
[18:37] <edbian> ubuntero, hello

[18:38] <padhu> locid have an tamil menu's
[18:39] <ubuntero> i haves a problem with ubuntu, i would likes ask help
[18:39] <X-Sleepy-X> ubuntero: Go ahead and ask.
[18:39] <edbian> ubuntero, You're in the right place.  What's the problem?
[18:39] <NewUsrr> well ask
[18:40] <Danborg> Does Ubuntu hardcode the MAC address in a file somewhere at install time??
[18:41] <cfedde> Danborg: it can: /etc/network/interfaces
[18:41] <ubuntero> well, i am using ubuntu 9.10.- When i am using an irc clcient, and i want sent pics to a firend, or when i am searching to upload a pic in internet, my files appears likes a list. When i am searching a pic, it is hard look the correct one. Can i changes this and look them in a miniature style?
[18:41] <iceroot> Danborg: /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules
[18:42] <Danborg> Ugh, that is very VMware unfriendly
[18:43] <iceroot> Danborg: no
[18:43] <wikiik> anybody know why the wifi icon in the upper bar has desapeared?
[18:43] <Danborg> Reduces portability of VMs across platforms without manual intervention
[18:44] <DDAZZA> hello, ive been having wireless problems and have done a TCP Dump and noticed that I'm geting lots  of Unknown DSAP errors. I'm using Ubuntu is their anything I can do to stop these errors?
[18:44] <X-Sleepy-X> ubuntero: If you're using XChat then I don't think you can do that but what I would do is to open the file browser and look at the name of the file and then just type that name into the file list in the IRC client so that it will mark the correct file.
[18:44] <iceroot> Danborg: no because vmware is asking you if you want to change the mac-adress if you copy a vm
[18:44] <xmy> wikiik: try nm-applet command
[18:44] <abuayyoub> mowe, do you know if there exsists deb packages for installing this>? looks like you can only install by compileing source/
[18:44] <matteo1990> anyone knows a way to update the facebook status with the rhytmbox playing song?
[18:44] <X-Sleepy-X> ubuntero: But that's just how I would do it. Maybe someone else has a better suggestion.

[18:48] <rocket16> iceroot: I tried Empathy, but it's IRC support is not good.
[18:49] <hamzaatova_> i installed hebrew but can't stiil type in hebrew. why? how do i also add the bar of changing languages?
[18:49] <edbian> john275, Mark the file as executable. Right click it and look at the permissions tab
[18:49] <iceroot> rocket16: i cant imaging that any of this multi-chat clients has a good irc support
[18:49] <Aliska> anyone suceeded in getting usb components working with virtualbox in last ubuntu release ?
[18:49] <BluesKaj-Laptop> john275, try the readme
[18:49] <iceroot> Aliska: yes
[18:49] <john275> edbian, thanks, i did check for that and it is marked as executable
[18:49] <abuayyoub> hi, just curious i keep running into problems when i try to compile source every time i do ./configure it says.. this is not a directory also, i am trying to make a file right now and it is saying  *** No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop.

[18:49] <Aliska> iceroot, how didi you do that ??
[18:49] <matteo1990> anyone knows a way to update the facebook status with the rhytmbox playing song?
[18:49] <iceroot> Aliska: installing vbox-nonfree
[18:49] <edbian> john275, Look at the file, what does it look like?
[18:49] <abuayyoub> i followed the directions it says run ./configure then make ./configure works but make gives me this error
[18:50] <iceroot> Aliska: thats all, also have a look at #vbox
[18:50] <wikiik> edbian, sorry but i don't find the icon, it appears many others but not the wifi one
[18:50] <Danborg> I have a small Ubuntu Server vm built that is useful for demonstration purposes.  I need to post this VM to our intranet site so that any employee can download it if they wish to give a demo.  I would prefer it to be plug and play and avoid having to fiddle with MAC addresses on every deployment.
[18:50] <xangua> rocket16: use the latest version pidgin 2.7.1¿
[18:50] <_hyde> one question: how can I give permission only to eth1 using ufw?
[18:50] <NeonLightning> rocket16: have you tried using irssi and bitlbee, toss nicklist, renamer, and typing notice scripts in and its all i've enjoyed using for last year or two
[18:50] <john275> edbian,  yeah i should be in the right place. i typed "cd" in terminal and then just dragged the vlc folder into the terminal window to make sure i got it right
[18:50] <bkw> I have a ecryptfs in my fstab and mount -a prompts "Passphrase:" so I can enter the pass. But upon bootup I don't see "Passphrase:" but it is still waiting for a passphrase to be entered. How do I get "Passphrase:" prompted at bootup too?
[18:50] <edbian> wikiik, the wifi icon is part of the notification area.  You added the notification area and the network icon didn't show up?
[18:50] <Aliska> iceroot, Im with the non free version but it seems that since there no more usbfs it's a bit complicated. ok thanks for the channel ill go check
[18:50] <_hyde> permission to ssh
[18:50] <rocket16> xangua: Been using it,
[18:50] <iceroot> Danborg: and i told you vmware is handling that mac-adrress problem
[18:50] <john275> edbian, oops never mind i didnt cd into the folder for some reason, going to try again thaks
[18:50] <Danborg> But they aren't.
[18:51] <edbian> john275, What does your terminal prompt look like?  userName@computerName:~$ ??
[18:51] <edbian> john275, There ya go :)
[18:51] <iceroot> Danborg: vmware-server is doing it
[18:51] <plavcik> I need to disable gdm, dpkg-reconfigure gdm dont ask me for anything and just quit, how I can diable gdm on 10.04?
[18:51] <xangua> rocket16: check the logs then, my memory usare is no more then 23 MB, there is also a pidgin channle: #pidgin
[18:51] <Danborg> Don't have this problem with Slackware.
[18:51] <iceroot> Danborg: its asking to keep or create a new one
[18:51] <iceroot> Danborg: then disable the udev-rule
[18:52] <rocket16> xangua: I checked out that channel already, but none helped, :( Still, thanks for the help
[18:52] <wikiik> thanks edbian,
[18:52] <Danborg> Good idea
[18:52] <plavcik> bkw: try to boot withou splash and withou quit options in grub menu
[18:52] <matteo1990> anyone knows a way to update the facebook status with the rhytmbox playing song?
[18:52] <_hyde> one question: how can I give permission only to eth1 for ssh using ufw??
[18:52] <Danborg> Thanks for pointing out that udev rule file, I knew the MAC had to be hardcoded somewhere but I couldn't find it
[18:52] <iceroot> !repeat | matteo1990
[18:53] <edbian> wikiik, Fixed it then?
[18:53] <_hyde> how can I give permission only to eth1 for ssh using ufw??
[18:53] <bkw> plavcik: I have "noquiet splash" now, should I have nosplash to?
[18:54] <plavcik> I would just remove words quiet and splash (you can do that temporary too editing menu with e)
[18:54] <wikiik> edbian yes, i didn't read you appropiatelly
[18:54] <edbian> wikiik, Excellent :)
[18:54] <wikiik> edbian,  one more question, i try to suspend my laptop
[18:55] <X-Sleepy-X> matteo1990: I've never done it but I think you need to enable the plugin called IM-status in Rhythmbox and then activate Song status in Empathy or Pidgin and connect either of those to your facebook. But that's just a guess
[18:55] <edbian> wikiik, Yeah, it doesn't work right?
[18:55] <wikiik> but when i restart it, it keeps a black screen
[18:55] <wikiik> the screen doesn't seem to be on like other times
[18:56] <Mrcheesenips> Is there a "stero mix" equivilant for Ubuntu?

[18:57] <hamzaatova_> i installed hebrew but can't stiil type in hebrew. why? how do i also add the bar of changing languages?
[18:57] <plavcik> bkw: you have to disable both splash and quit options, I don't know, if nosplah option exist, I just removing it if needed
[18:57] <Aliska> technodenbow, we are fine thanks
[18:57] <hamzaatova_> how can i connect facebook with empathy? i don't think it's working well

[18:58] <Aliska> any red5 guru over here ?
[18:58] <mmaximum> Can everybody vote for VADEL ???

[19:00] <X-Sleepy-X> matteo1990: Well that's as much information I can give, sorry.
[19:00] <_hyde> how can I give permission only to eth1 for ssh using ufw??
[19:00] <bkw> plavcik: didn't help, still no prompt for "Passphrase:", but it is just a empty line waiting for the phrase to be entered before it continues.
[19:00] <wikiik> edbian, do you remember the web from where appears all the capabilities supported by a laptop using ubuntu?

[19:09] <magnus87> anyone know if they fixed the issue with sound not working after suspend with snd-hda-intel in 10.04?  my time on the forum has turned up nothing of value.....
[19:09] <gustavo__> mmm
[19:10] <rekoil> magnus87, don't think so
[19:10] <magnus87> :(
[19:10] <Frax> okay, since nobody replied yet, I'll just post again: I'm having a problem with ubuntu 10.04. 9.10 used to work just fine, nothing else has changed except the ubuntu version I'm trying to use. now with 10.04, regardless of whether I install using wubi or start from a live cd, I get the new splash page and then my monitor turns off (no signal). anybody know what I can do except use an old version?
[19:11] <magnus87> ive had this laptop since 2006 and they havent fixed that bug

[19:11] <edlik> Frax: I am trying to get help for the same problem, this sucks!
[19:12] <magnus87> what video card?
[19:12] <sparebit> Frax: Thats all I get with ubuntu 10.04 in Sun VirtualBox on a Vista host
[19:12] <rekoil> magnus87, well i don't know about your exact problem, but my macbookpro4,1's digital output died earlier today after returning from suspend
[19:12] <Frax> edlik damn... this si really rather a bummer, it looks pretty neat on my netbook. except I'm not actually using it that much, no use isntalling ubuntu there
[19:12] <PSurge> How to reinstall samba service?
[19:12] <sparebit> It is something to do with the graphics card
[19:13] <Aliska> PSurge, apt-get remove samba && apt-get install samba ?
[19:13] <sparebit> I think you have to change the start up script
[19:13] <Frax> sparebit what graphics card do you have? (edlik too) mine is an ati hd 3850
[19:13] <PSurge> Tryed that already
[19:13] <g-me> hey folks. I am using Grsync as a gui to rsync. I have connected to a windows share, How could I see this in Grsync to backup data on the windows machine? I can seem to find it?
[19:13] <toolbear> hi.  when you press <ctrl><alt><f3> in ubuntu 10.04, what exactly happens?  i see that you get to a command prompt, but what does this mean?  evidently xserver is still running...
[19:14] <Aliska> PSurge, well that should do the trick
[19:14] <xmy> it's time to sleep now,good night,guys.
[19:14] <Frax> save graphics more for inistallation did nothing either. it installed in text mode, tried to boot and screen went blank

[19:14] <Ddorda> hey, how do i remove the title of the window?
[19:14] <abuayyoub> hi, just curious i keep running into problems when i try to compile source every time i do ./configure it says.. this is not a directory also, i am trying to make a file right now and it is saying  *** No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop.
[19:15] <g-me> erUSUL: Brilliant Thanks! the power of the internet ! :) Much appreciated
[19:15] <Aliska> Ddorda, I dont know, but curiosity: why would you do that ?
[19:15] <edlik> Frax: from what can tell, this is common enough that it should be fixed or lots of people are gonna say forget it and never update again
[19:15] <Dotblank2> abuayyoub, What are you trying to compile?
[19:15] <erUSUL> g-me: no problem
[19:15] <Dotblank2> !compile
[19:15] <Ddorda> Aliska: using a netbook
[19:15] <PSurge> Samba still missing from services
[19:15] <Uruoki> Is there a help channel, or is this channel fine?
[19:15] <mneptok> Uruoki: this is the correct channel for Ubuntu help
[19:16] <Dotblank2> Uruoki, this channels fine
[19:16] <abuayyoub> Dotblank2,  a program called nzbget
[19:16] <PSurge> They stopped using /erc6init.d it seems
[19:16] <Aliska> Ddorda, ooh .. well .. maybe some emerald configuration ? but withou a title window you re gonna be in trouble to close the window no
[19:16] <PSurge> Etc
[19:16] <rekoil> anyone here on a macbook/macbookpro able to get it to automatically switch to optical audio when you stick a mini-toslink in the connector?
[19:16] <Uruoki> Alrighty, anyone mind helping me setup wireless, I just started using Ubuntu, and the install file is unclear for me.
[19:16] <Ddorda> Aliska: i'm using namebar so my clsing button is on the panel
[19:16] <Uruoki> I believe th ucode was released around Jun 3rd.
[19:16] <Frax> edlik: I'm somewhat disappointed myself. I originally chose ubuntu to be my go-to linux flavor because it worked so well right out of the box, and a showstopping bug like that kind of sours the deal a great bit
[19:17] <rekoil> or rather, anyone here on a macbook/macbookpro able to get it to even output optical audio on a regular basis?
[19:17] <Ddorda> Aliska: and i usually dont even use this one - Alt+f4
[19:17] <abuayyoub> Dotblank2, i have 3 make files makefile.am makefile.in and makefile.cvs
[19:17] <Aliska> Ddorda, well I think if you use emerald theme manager you can sweep out the title bar (but not sure)
[19:17] <mneptok> Uruoki: look in the network manager applet icon in the top menubar. do you see wireless networks listed?
[19:17] <gustavo__> anybody know if exist drivers to video card sis672 on ubuntu 10.04???

[19:18] <mneptok> AmokPaule: which version says that?
[19:18] <rocket16> Hoppa: You can use Root Terminal in Recovery mode, and get the username :)
[19:18] <Uruoki> mneptok : My wireless driver isn't supported by Ubuntu yet, the ucode was released 3 days ago.

[19:19] <Uruoki> mneptok : Yea, and the only driver that shows up is my Graphic Card.
[19:19] <rocket16> Hoppa: Start in Recovery mode, and in that select Root terminal. Now use this command: cd /home        and now, use: ls to list all Folders. Now, the name of the user is the name of the folder, :D A\ trick

[19:32] <SeanInSeattle> Hey all.  Does anyone know how if its possible to install both chrome stable and chrome beta on the same linux box?
[19:32] <bkw> seem like ubuntu bootup skips the "Passphrase:" prompt even if I have it in the /etc/fstab, it should prompt and wait for the user to enter the passphrase?
[19:32] <abuayyoub> Pirate_Hunter,  NZBget is in the repo? i havent seen it i cant even find a .deb of it
[19:32] <Roky> jacks_: if I were you...I would shop around for nvidia. To be honest. Nvidia support is known to be so much better than ATI in the linux world.
[19:32] <rogerm42> VirtualBox 3.2.2 will not let me install Ubuntu? I tried 10.04 LTS, Maverick alternate and regular iso?
[19:32] <ubutom> jacks_, if you plan on using the proprietary ATI driver, everything below ATI 3.xxx is in legacy-branch now and no fglrx availabe for it
[19:32] <llutz> rogerm42: /j #b
[19:33] <llutz> rogerm42: /j #vbox    sorry
[19:33] <jellow> I have latest live cd but taking hours to load X how can i just spawn a shell?
[19:33] <iKb> i am running ubuntu server 10.04 in vbox
[19:33] <jacks_> ubutom: I was thinking of using the opensource drivers
[19:33] <Pirate_Hunter> abuayyoub, I meant hellanzb it may not have any new releases from now on but if it is good you can still use it
[19:33] <Warlock> Roky: i get this error when running the preffs http://pastebin.com/TQQ3cPXZ
[19:33] <ubutom> jacks_, then you are good to go, but don't expect good 3d performance
[19:33] <jacks_> ubutom: I don't need good 3D
[19:33] <ubutom> jacks_, had an ati x1800xt and the os drivers were just awful
[19:34] <jacks_> ubutom: for 3d you mean
[19:34] <Roky> SeanInSeattle: Yes you can, but why would you want too? Both are pretty freaking stable. I have yet to have chromium crash on me.
[19:34] <ubutom> yes, jacks, including i wasn't able to turn ompiz on :<
[19:34] <Roky> Warlock: have you been tweaking alot? and removing things with dependancies?
[19:34] <ubutom> *compiz
[19:34] <SeanInSeattle> @Roky Actually, I wanted to run the dev channel version along with the stable, since it keeps on crashing on me.
[19:35] <Dotblank2> abuayyoub, almost done making deb
[19:35] <jacks_> ubutom: the others things where ok?
[19:35] <Warlock> Roky: not at all
[19:35] <Warlock> its a fresh install of lucid
[19:35] <thressdev> how do i remove all of my gnome and metacity config files in lucid?
[19:35] <ubutom> jacks_, yeah, 2d was well
[19:35] <Roky> SeanInSeattle: whoa? really.....dang dude. First ive heard of chromium crashing.
[19:35] <abuayyoub> Pirate_Hunter,  ah yea, I have it but it keeps throwing errors at me. LottaNZB works nicely but i can only download one file at a time because it locks up or the speed drops to like 5k or something, nzb dosent really work, pan dosent work at all, sabnzb dosen't gives me something like 45kbps not sure what my problem is with usenet on linux
[19:35] <Roky> Did you try "chrome" the official release from google?
[19:35] <abuayyoub> Dotblank2, you're awesome man
[19:35] <SeanInSeattle> @Roky Do you run dev or beta channel version on your machine?
[19:35] <ActionParsnip> yo yo yo
[19:35] <Pirate_Hunter> abuayyoub, http://bugmonkeyblog.blogspot.com/2008/01/nzbget-install-on-ubuntu-server.html I found this by searching on google it didn't take long
[19:35] <Warlock> Roky: running ubuntuone-prefs gives me http://pastebin.com/TQQ3cPXZ
[19:36] <jacks_> ubutom: we can expect improve os drivers in the future right?
[19:36] <ubutom> jacks_, but I was kinda disappointed, since the x1800xt performed vers well with 9.04 and fglrx
[19:36] <Roky> SeanInSeatle: I run beta.
[19:36] <jellow> I have latest live cd but taking hours to load X how can i just spawn a shell?
[19:36] <Dotblank2> abuayyoub, I didn't include a proper control file so you might have to force arch
[19:36] <ubutom> jacks_, I don't know
[19:36] <ActionParsnip> Roky: the daily build was a bit flaky for a few weeks, its ok now
[19:36] <Roky> Warlock: I am not sure what is causing that bro. Might need to ask someone else.
[19:36] <Warlock> kk, thx tho
[19:37] <jacks_> Roky: I want to use the video card for an audio computer, no 3D needed, but good 2D
[19:37] <Roky> ActionParsnip: It was pretty dang stable on arch..lol :P
[19:37] <linux_is_my_hero> how do i report a bug in ubuntu?
[19:37] <Roky> jacks_: then it should work.
[19:37] <Roky> linux_is_my_hero: go to launchpad
[19:37] <Pirate_Hunter> abuayyoub, I wouldn't know how to help you, you could start by pasting the actual error(s) into pastebin than someone could look at it I am sure that if you search on it you might find that someone might have posted a fix for it
[19:37] <ActionParsnip> Roky: using the daily build?
[19:37] <jellow> the a safe video mode on the live cd?
[19:38] <wise_crypt> ActionParsnip: thressdev is going to remove his gnome also, thressdev  ActionParsnip is the man to ask about it, he help me the other day
[19:38] <Roky> ActionParsnip: yes. I updated everyday. for almost a month. never crashed for me.

[19:38] <hamzaatova_> how can i tell ubuntu to use alt-shift for language change??????????????????????????????
[19:38] <volve> hey all, I'm trying to find some how-to steps about installing Ubuntu Server onto a USB thumb drive so I always have a server handy. I've found lots of articles about transferring a Live CD to a USB so I can run Ubuntu Desktop or install FROM the USB, but I really just want to install Server TO the USB drive and run the whole server from there. Does anyone know of any howto guides at al?
[19:38] <abuayyoub> ok
[19:38] <steveyg> hey everyone.  I recently partitioned my hdd to dual boot ubuntu and windows 7.  i shrank my windows partition and now have unallocated space that I cant seem to give to the ubuntu partition. help?
[19:39] <wise_crypt> !unetbootin | volve
[19:39] <Roky> volve: sudo a sudo dd copy and just boot from it? or do you want specific apps and such
[19:39] <ActionParsnip> !shortcut | hamzaatova_
[19:39]  * Roky really has to go now...late for work -_-
[19:39] <volve> wise_crypt: I've looked at unetbootin, but if I point it at the server iso it only allows me to install form the usb after the transfer; it doesn't actually handle installing to the usb...
[19:40] <thressdev> how do i remove all of my gnome and metacity config files in lucid?
[19:40] <hamzaatova_> ActionParsnip, where is the option for alt-shift??
[19:40] <volve> Roky: well ubuntu server isn't a LiveCD, it's just an installer.
[19:40] <ActionParsnip> thressdev: if you want to remove all the gnome config files then move .gconf .gconfd .gnome2 .gnome2_private to a new folder for safekeeping
[19:40] <wise_crypt> volve:
[19:40] <ActionParsnip> hamzaatova_: you can set shortcuts using stuff there
[19:40] <wise_crypt> volve: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent
[19:40] <volve> wise_crypt: yes just reading that now, sorry :)
[19:40] <hamzaatova_> ActionParsnip, where is the keyboard option?

[19:45] <volve> wise_crypt: see, method 1, "Installing Ubuntu directly to USB drive from installer CD" is what I did but there's not "Advanced" option for the GRUB install so I get an error trying to put grub or lilo onto the usb drive. In reading about how UNetBootin' works, there was some talk of needing a FAT partition for the actual boot sequence, which clearly a direct install of Server isn't going to create...

[19:47] <edmund> hi, I've got a laptop SATA drive that I've plugged into my Ubuntu desktop PC with a USB to SATA connnector- The laptop it came from is completely dead. Nothing on it will mount automatically, it's got an ext4 partition on it, hwich I had ubuntu installed on. I can mount this and copy stuff off it. It's also got some ntfs partitions on it, one of which, has Windows Vista on it. I can only see this is here using GParted, and
[19:47] <edmund> it shows an exclamation mark on it. I can mount it, and see the contents, but whenever I try to open a directory the entire drive will disconnnect. The only way to see it again is to unplug it and plug it back in again. I tried running ntfsfix on it from ntfsprogs. The first time it said it couldn't becasue the partition is corrupted, but now it says its succesful I've tried this a few times. But I still get the problem of
[19:47] <edmund> it disconnecting the entire drive if I try to open a directory on the ntfs partition. The ext4 partition is fine unless I try to open a folder in the ntfs partition, in which case, as I said the drive disconnects. I'd quite like to be able to fix the partition so I can get at the data and use the hard drive as an external drive, keeping that data. I dont have windows so I cant do chkdsk on it. Thankyou for any help
[19:47] <Dotblank2> abuayyoub, right you need to make one
[19:47] <FloodBot2> edmund: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.

[19:50] <ActionParsnip> arthurmaciel: you can see the users home folders which match the user names. You can then run: passwd foo     replace foo with the username
[19:51] <banker247> erUSUL the game mount n blade is in d3d i believe
[19:51] <ActionParsnip> edmund: has it been in a windows pc?

[19:51] <grkblood> how do i change the network connection speed for my NIC?
[19:51] <ActionParsnip> thressdev: unlikely, i think you nailed it dude, keep the old folders backed up, gives you a rollback option
[19:51] <ubutom> banker247, ok, was just a guess
[19:52] <llutz> grkblood: ethtool

[19:52] <banker247> ubutom i downloaded alien arena tooo.. its a linux game it runs pretty crappy too.. i think i did something wrong setting something up with my vid cards or something ius theree anything i should be aware of besides just installing drivers?
[19:52] <grkblood> is ethtool a cli command?
[19:52] <brontoeee> if bluetooth logitech mouse suddenly stops cooperating, what do i do?
[19:52] <edmund> ActionParsnip: yes, it came from my laptop, which is now broken, on which I ran winVista and ubuntu, ubuntu is on the ext4 partition which works fine, and vista on the ntfs partition, which is the partition thats not working
[19:52] <llutz> grkblood: it is
[19:52] <thressdev> ActionParsnip:ok, thanks for your help man, really appreciated
[19:52] <ubutom> banker247, which video card do you have?
[19:52] <ActionParsnip> edmund: when you removed it from the pc did you safetly remove it or just rip it out?
[19:52] <Lurner> is anyone here succesfully using Personal File Sharing to connect to a window

[19:53] <Lurner> is anyone here succesfully using Personal File Sharing to connect to a window's shared folder / workgroup ??
[19:53] <grkblood> llutz, im guessing the speed is set up to automatically find out the speed, but i think thats causing the internet to sporatically drop out every now and then. does that seem right?
[19:53] <linux_is_my_hero> edmund: if u have a case for a 2.5" laptop drive, u can set up your old drive as an external, then after you've installed ubuntu on your new computer, u can at least copy your files so u dont lose important stuff :-)

[19:53] <ActionParsnip> !ati | buppa
[19:53] <ubutom> banker247, unfortunately everything below ATI 3.XXX series is in the legacy branch now and fglrx is no longer supported, the open source drivers aren't very efficient yet with 3D
[19:54] <llutz> grkblood: if so, change NIC, its broken
[19:54] <abuayyoub> Dotblank2,  hey i cant seem to find the configure file is there a template or something somewhere? this website tells me cp nzbget.conf.example ~/.nzbget but its not there.
[19:54] <grkblood> llutz, its not on just this computer
[19:54] <remaxim> is there any way for stopping the monitor to turn off while watching flash videos?
[19:54] <sylbot> ActionParsnip: It is not listed in h
[19:54] <grkblood> all the internet dies
[19:54] <sylbot> The chart.
[19:54] <ActionParsnip> grkblood: when it drops run:  dmesg | tail -n 15    it will give clues
[19:54] <grkblood> ive heard it has to do with auto detecting the spped rate of the cards
[19:54] <ubutom> banker247, had the same issue with ATI X1800XT, even compiz didn't work with the open source driver
[19:54] <banker247> ubutom i see.. so its my vid card being old and the fact that the drivers are crap in linux.. so if i have beef vid card everything would be fine
[19:55] <banker247> ubutom compiz works very well.. i mean.. its a crappy video card but it runs well.. i had everything maxed in windows in most gqames
[19:55] <ActionParsnip> banker247: its ati being lame and not supporting the older cards
[19:55] <Baltika_7> Ïðèâåò
[19:55] <grkblood> that will cause false information to be passed every now and then
[19:55] <Dotblank2> abuayyoub, I see that file in the svn folder
[19:55] <spezticle> how can i tail -f a file and also use the tail log file be the gnome terminal window title?
[19:55] <Lurner> Action Parsnip.. When i access the personal file sharing utility there is a message that says that I don't have the installed components but it won't tell me what those components might be.
[19:55] <Ddorda> is it possible to remove the volume control from the indicator applet?
[19:55] <Dotblank2> abuayyoub, ls ./ | grep .conf

[19:55] <Lurner> done it
[19:55] <CGI537> give it 2 me babay, help me to see her naked: http://www.sexy-fussball-wm2010.net/?id=6348406
[19:55] <banker247> which increased performance like 15%
[19:55] <llutz> grkblood: try to limit it/set it to a fixed speed with ethtool and watch your issues
[19:55] <Lurner> and rebooted.. still no luck.
[19:55] <ActionParsnip> banker247: yep, ati support windows more as it makes them more money
[19:55] <arthurmaciel> ActionParsnip: how easy to break a box, huh?
[19:55] <trism> Ddorda: it is, why do you want to?
[19:55] <Lurner> I've configured samba as best I can
[19:55] <ubutom> banker247, ok, then you did better than me, my card didn't work well at all, so I ought a new one (cheap on ebay) ;)
[19:55] <banker247> well i fear i'll have to resort to nethack lol
[19:56] <Lurner> filled in the workgroup name
[19:56] <ActionParsnip> arthurmaciel: i can think of many ways ;)
[19:56] <Lurner> do you actually do this with your network ?
[19:56] <ubutom> banker247, but I assume with mobility radeon that is no option for you
[19:56] <ActionParsnip> Lurner: I always use smb.conf dude, i dont use nautilus' method
[19:56] <Ddorda> trism: cause i don't need it, i use the keyboard strokes insteas
[19:56] <Ddorda> instead
[19:56] <banker247> i ditched vista 2 weeks ago and switched to this ubuntu thing.. love the features of it.. just hate that games wont work but oh well
[19:56] <trism> Ddorda: uninstall indicator-sound
[19:56] <grkblood> llutz, how do i find out what spped i should being running my card at
[19:56] <Dotblank2> arthurmaciel, Linux is not ment to provide local security. A person who has physical access to your machine has your machone
[19:56] <ActionParsnip> banker247: many games work well
[19:56] <grkblood> or how do i find out what its currently running at
[19:56] <erUSUL> Ddorda: look into startup programs and disable gnome-volume-control
[19:56] <jrib> banker247: some windows-only games will work in wine, also see the linux game offerings
[19:56] <ActionParsnip> grkblood: sudo lshw -C network
[19:57] <erUSUL> grkblood: ethtool
[19:57] <jrib> !games > banker247
[19:57] <ubutom> banker247, for games I would recommend dual boot
[19:57] <banker247> ya but i think its because my vid card is the suck in linux so they wont ;)
[19:57] <jrib> !appdb > banker247
[19:57] <jrib> banker247: what card?
[19:57] <Lurner> I wasn't using Nautilis I was using Gadmin-samba
[19:57] <ActionParsnip> banker247: urbanterror is great as well as the penumbra series
[19:57] <banker247> jrib hd2600
[19:57] <ActionParsnip> Lurner: never used that either, nautilus can configure shares
[19:57] <arthurmaciel> Dotblank2: wow.
[19:57] <Dotblank2> Lurner, I would nto reccomend using that
[19:57] <arthurmaciel> ActionParsnip: thank you!
[19:57] <mementomori> what's the name of the chan where I can have support about bazaar?
[19:57] <banker247> whats interesting is . i downloaded alien arena.. andit doesn't run allt hat great either. my drivers are not good i think
[19:58] <grkblood> if i use ethtool im going to have to do that every time i reboot or get disconnected right?
[19:58] <edmund> well, I turned the laptop off and took it out. the laptop broke after I reflowed a graphics card back onto the board, which was succesful. while I was testing it to make sure the graphics was now working, the cd drive stopped working (I was running a live cd, without the hdd in), the cd drive stopped working. I assumed the cd drive was at fault and it was bad luck. so I re-assembled it with the hard drive in, and everytihng
[19:58] <edmund>  was running fine, untill the hard drive also stoppped working. when the laptop booted it couldn't see the drive. so I've given up on the laptop and taken the hard drive out. It seems I must have damaged the motherboard of the laptop so it cant see the cd and hard drive. now i've pluuged the hard drive into my pc as desribed and partitions are corrupted
[19:58] <mementomori> !bazaar
[19:58] <llutz> grkblood:"sudo ethtool ethX"  tells you what modes are supported. if you don't have any further info, you'd have to test them all (i'd start from slow to fast)
[19:58] <Lurner> I have nautilis installed but I can't find how to lauch any interface for it
[19:58] <Msnbc> Assume I know nothing about linux. Where should I go first to learn the basics?
[19:58] <banker247> i think its the fact that my card is unussported.. since its older
[19:58] <mementomori> !bzr
[19:58] <Ddorda> erUSUL: i don't find such a thing
[19:58] <trism> mementomori: #bzr
[19:58] <spezticle> everytime i call gnome-terminal -t 'title' it displays the title that i type, but as soon as it logs in it changes back to user@host:~
[19:58] <mementomori> trism, thanks
[19:58] <ubutom> banker247, as I said, fglrx is no longer availabe for cards under 3000 series
[19:58] <ActionParsnip> grkblood: if you read dmesg when it drops it may give clues. Ive seen some cards drop if they cannot find ipv6 and it needs disabling with boot options
[19:58] <trism> Ddorda: gneme-volume-control-applet was used in versions previous to lucid, it is now controlled by indicator-sound
[19:58] <banker247> ubutom i'm runing fglrx right nwo
[19:59] <Dotblank2> spezticle, yes you might have to change some bash.rc script or login script
[19:59] <llutz> grkblood: please keep it in the channel, i don't answer PMs
[19:59] <lightpriest> any IO guru's around here? I'm having a really weird problem. Every once in a while I get 95% IO wait that doesn't let me do anything with the system
[19:59] <grkblood> k
[19:59] <grkblood> well it says 100MB full duplex
[19:59] <edmund> ActionParsnip: so I expect the partitions to be corrupted, because of the way I had to remove it, but I'm hoping there's a way to fix them
[19:59] <Dotblank2> grkblood, is your card 100 mb full duples?
[20:00] <NeonLightning> for the life of me i can't get flash to work properly i keep getting a grey screen where the video should be, sound works and clicking randomly i can get things to give audible responses
[20:00] <Dotblank2> duplex*
[20:00] <grkblood> i guess so, my inet is working now
[20:00] <imaginativeone> can anyone help with my roku box?
[20:00] <ubutom> banker247, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RadeonHD
[20:00] <lightpriest> NeonLightning: you're not using gnash or something like that right?
[20:00] <llutz> grkblood: does "Supported link modes" show more modes than just the 100Mbit?
[20:00] <spezticle> oh man, i've been doing this way toooo long.
[20:00] <banker247> i'm running ati/amd proprietary fglrx graphics driver
[20:00] <spezticle> i can just right click on the terminal, go to optins, and type a title in
[20:00] <ActionParsnip> edmund: in a windows system use the disk checker and remember to use the safe remove feature in both windows and linux
[20:00] <ActionParsnip> edmund: they exist for a reason :)
[20:01] <grkblood> so i guess i need to type 'sudo ethtool -s eth0 speed 100 duplex full'
[20:01] <spezticle> i haven't slept in 39 hours i'm getting a little off my game heh
[20:01] <ubutom> banker247, I can say X1800XT didn't work with fglrx and I read the 2000 seires isn'T too
[20:01] <NeonLightning> lightpriest: no and i'm using chrome too(same result in firefox though)
[20:01] <grkblood> is that right?
[20:01] <lightpriest> NeonLightning: about:plugins in firefox, what does it say about "Shockwave Flash"?
[20:01] <llutz> grkblood: yes
[20:02] <NeonLightning> one second gotta reopen firefox
[20:02] <erUSUL> trism: i do no have that installed .... crappy dist upgrade if you ask me ;)
[20:02] <ActionParsnip> imaginativeone: how is that related to ubuntu?
[20:02] <Dotblank2> grkblood, you should never have to manually set the speed
[20:02] <imaginativeone> they're both Linux?
[20:02] <llutz> grkblood: add "autoneg off"
[20:02] <maxi-mum> please, vote VADEL : http://www.99polls.com/polls_c8.swf?id=145146&width=170&backgroundColor=0x333333&borderColor=0xff0000&borderSize=5&radius=5&lang=fr
[20:02] <Dotblank2> grkblood, the only time this may be needed is connecting to embeded devices or legacy equipment
[20:02] <llutz> maxi-mum: stop spamming
[20:02] <banker247> ubutom it sais something there about open source drivers should i remove my propriatary?
[20:03] <Dotblank2> !ops
[20:03] <grkblood> Dotblank2, i dont want it to be set automatically b/c that can cause false info to be sent to the router sometimes
[20:03] <grkblood> which will lead to a brief disconnect
[20:03] <ubutom> banker247, no
[20:03] <edmund> ActionParsnip: As said above, I didn't even have the chance to safely remove the drive, as it just disconnencted due to a hardware fault in my laptop. Also, I'm wondering if there's a way to fix the partitions in linux, as I dont have a windows computer to hand
[20:03] <grkblood> and i cant have that running a voip
[20:03] <NeonLightning> lightpriest: Shockwave Flash 10.0 r45 and its enabled
[20:03] <look> i have a problem with my Xorg.conf file, when im using the Nvidia driver manager in ubuntu 9,10 and i tell it to save to the it says "Failed to parse existing X config file '/etc/X11/xorg.conf'!" is there a way to fix this?
[20:03] <lightpriest> NeonLightning: what is the filename?
[20:03] <banker247> ubutom i have a group 2 card
[20:03] <ubutom> banker247, if fglrx is running it's the best you can get, you could try it, but I don't recommend it
[20:03] <ActionParsnip> edmund: if you plug it in widows do you get access to the data?
[20:03] <Dotblank2> grkblood, ok.. usually Ive never had issues with it
[20:03] <lfitz> hi, whats the command to configure user shells, i need to switch my user shell to bash...cause its what i am familiar with :-P
[20:04] <ActionParsnip> edmund: it may be useful as NTFS is proprietary to Microsot
[20:04] <lfitz> or is it in ./.bashrc
[20:04] <grkblood> Dotblank2, do you run a voip?
[20:04] <erUSUL> look: move the bad xorg.conf out of the way ... « sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.bad »
[20:04] <llutz> lfitz: chsh
[20:04] <Dotblank2> grkblood, im a cisco voice engineer
[20:04] <ubutom> banker247, could be that alien arena was set to too high quality
[20:04] <lightpriest> NeonLightning: does it say libflashplayer.so?
[20:04] <NeonLightning> lightpriest: libflashplayer.so and chrome is using Shockwave Flash 10.1 r53
[20:04] <ubutom> banker247, the performance issue with Mount and Blade could be cause of wine
[20:04] <grkblood> is what im saying correct though?
[20:05] <edmund> ActionParsnip: i dont have a windows computer, but may be able to use one within the next few days...
[20:05] <grkblood> audo speed can do that
[20:05] <lightpriest> NeonLightning: they are both showing grey screens?
[20:05] <grkblood> ?
[20:05] <wolf23> plz how can i add addons on xchat like in the mirc client?
[20:05] <NeonLightning> lightpriest: just rechecked and seems like firefox isn't working with flash period
[20:05] <Dotblank2> grkblood, I personally haven't many issues with this but if it auto disconnects on link speed negotian then I can see it would be usefull to disable it.. what router are you using?
[20:05] <brontoeee> if bluetooth logitech mouse suddenly stops cooperating, what do i do?
[20:05] <grkblood> a cheap netgear router
[20:05] <lightpriest> NeonLightning: only videos or other stuff too?
[20:06] <Dotblank2> grkblood, well theres your problem
[20:06] <ActionParsnip> edmund: you may be able to get the data if you use foremost. If you restore from backup you can simply reformat the device then restore the data easily
[20:06] <grkblood> im assuming thats whats going on
[20:06] <grkblood> it could be comcasts fault as well
[20:06] <grkblood> i dont know
[20:06] <grkblood> but its annoying
[20:06] <abuayyoub> Dotblank2,  hey man just want to thank you again looks like everything is running nicely.
[20:06] <ubutom> banker247, anyway, even is some people don't like it, I recommend windows to play, less problems generally, you could dualboot in vista for games and do your work and surf with ubuntu ;)
[20:06] <Dotblank2> abuayyoub, np man, glad to help
[20:06] <grkblood> i run a live radio show, and sometimes ill get disconnects
[20:06] <ActionParsnip> grkblood: if its a wired connection try a different port on the router
[20:06] <grkblood> local network will stay in tact though
[20:07] <ActionParsnip> grkblood: did you try the dmesg thing i mentioned?
[20:07] <lfitz> llutz: ty
[20:07] <Dotblank2> grkblood, hmm ok that sounds more like an issue with comcast or your router dropping packets
[20:07] <grkblood> ActionParsnip, no, i have no wya of knowing when its going to happen
[20:07] <ManDay> What is Mouse-"Sensitivity" and why does it not change anything if I change it?
[20:07] <grkblood> it doesnt happen that often
[20:07] <wolf23> is there a way how can i add addons on xchat like in the mirc client?
[20:07] <grkblood> but when it does it screws me up
[20:07] <Dotblank2> grkblood, are you using rtp[?
[20:07] <grkblood> ithe last 1 hour live shows ive down its down it once every show
[20:08] <grkblood> Dotblank2, i dont know what that is
[20:08] <lightpriest> I'm having a weird IO problem, every once in a while my computer decides to spike IO wait to 95% and leave me with a non responsive computer for 10-20 seconds
[20:08] <look> i have a problem with my Xorg.conf file, when im using the Nvidia driver manager in ubuntu 9,10 and i tell it to save to the xorg.conf file it says "Failed to parse existing X config file '/etc/X11/xorg.conf'!" is there a way to fix this?
[20:08] <grkblood> and i cant call comcast and tell them its there fault
[20:08] <Dotblank2> grkblood, how are you streaming the radio show?
[20:08] <grkblood> b/c i dont know for sure
[20:08] <NeonLightning> lightpriest: i tested chrome with some games on towerdefense and youtube but i just tested firefox(apparently i forgot to turn off noscript previously) and its working just REALLY slow.
[20:08] <banker247> ubutom i lowered settings of alient a bit lower and now it runs fine still clunky feeling compared to games i used to run
[20:08] <edmund> ActionParsnip: thankyou for your help- I'm going to find a windows computer to use...
[20:09] <grkblood> Dotblank2, show hosts are on a group conference in skype, streamed to ustream, and the call in lines are a voip server im running on freepbx
[20:09] <ubutom> banker247, yeah, game slike ut2004 work like a charm,or other games with opengl support
[20:09] <ubutom> banker247, try nexuiz some time
[20:09] <lightpriest> NeonLightning: well, flash sux.. what is your hardware? compiz? gfx card? architecture?
[20:09] <Guest93125> Can someone help me troubleshooting 'low graphics mode' with nvidia-current on lucid: http://pastebin.org/313248
[20:09] <NeonLightning> lightpriest: but i'd rather get chrome working(i spose i could try copying the libflash from firefox
[20:09] <NeonLightning> lightpriest: no compiz i'm running a msi wind u100
[20:10] <lightpriest> that's a netbook right?
[20:10] <ubuntu> :O
[20:10] <ubuntu> :O
[20:10] <Dotblank2> grkblood, are the voip line sip? or actual hardware
[20:10] <NeonLightning> yea
[20:10] <Dotblank2> for call ins
[20:10] <grkblood> sip
[20:10] <grkblood> i run xlite softpone
[20:10] <grkblood> phone*
[20:10] <Dotblank2> do you see anything wierd in dmesg or other network performance issues
[20:10] <ManDay> What is Mouse-"Sensitivity" and why does it not change anything if I change it?
[20:11] <grkblood> Dotblank2, i dont really have a way to test it
[20:11] <vlt> Hello. Where can I get #help for OpenOffice?
[20:11] <grkblood> its nothign somethign running 24/7
[20:11] <hebfftijd> need to install a printer contected to a windowsbox, need help on it or suggestion
[20:11] <grkblood> i do it once a week for about an hour or two
[20:11] <llutz> vlt: #openoffice.org
[20:11] <buppa_> Hello I have installed ATI Graphic drivers but when i write fglrxinfo it says " display: :0.0  screen: 0 " .. Does it mean that graphic drivers are not properly installed?
[20:11] <vlt> llutz: here on freenode? (looks quite dead)
[20:12] <llutz> vlt: yes, try "/msg alis list *openoffice*"  to find more channels
[20:12] <Dotblank2> grkblood, you need to capture the error in logs and see if you can find a correlating event
[20:12] <lightpriest> NeonLightning: could you use top with that? to see if the cpu is "overused"?
[20:12] <grkblood> Dotblank2, what log file would it be
[20:12] <grkblood> it happened last night
[20:12] <grkblood> maybe i can track it down
[20:12] <Dotblank2> grkblood, well i don't deal with your pbx but im sure it has logs
[20:12] <banker247> ubutom so games that support openGL will traditionally work good in linux
[20:12] <Dotblank2> and your kernel may have logs
[20:13] <Dotblank2> or your softphone
[20:13] <grkblood> Dotblank2, its not just my pbx
[20:13] <ubutom> banker247,  it helps :)
[20:13] <grkblood> my entire network goes down internet wise
[20:13] <NeonLightning> lightpriest: chrome is using most of the cpu and firefox is using most of the ram
[20:13] <grkblood> local network stays in tact
[20:13] <Dotblank2> grkblood, oh...
[20:13] <grkblood> i can still tlak to machines locally
[20:13] <ubutom> banker247, with using wine most of the time comes some performance decrease
[20:13] <Dotblank2> grkblood, for how long?
[20:13] <SteamInc> Anybody know were i can get fluxbuntu. cause the website gives me a 404 link
[20:14] <grkblood> 20-30 seconds?
[20:14] <lightpriest> NeonLightning: just like that? using most of the CPU? or while you run flash?
[20:14] <grkblood> not long at all
[20:14] <grkblood> its a brief disconnect
[20:14] <banker247> ubutom should i disable compiz while playing
[20:14] <Dotblank2> grkblood, hmm  can you check the dhcp lease times on your router
[20:14] <ubutom> banker247, and there is also the problem with drm that doesn't run with wine and other stuff
[20:14] <ubutom> banker247, yeah, I think that is recommended
[20:14] <grkblood> is that something i do by lkogging in to my gateway?
[20:14] <Dotblank2> grkblood, you have a netgear right.. does it have a web interface?
[20:15] <grkblood> yea
[20:15] <grkblood> its gota  WUI
[20:15] <banker247> ubutom is there a script or somethin gmost people write to do that?
[20:15] <grkblood> im logged in now
[20:15] <Dotblank2> grkblood, should show the dhcp details and when it expire how long the lease is in effect
[20:15] <NeonLightning> lightpriest: doing anything it doesn't seem to change between 50-66% no matter what i'm doing
[20:16] <NeonLightning> lightpriest: tried while playing a html5 video tried with attempting flash and tried just sitting idle
[20:16] <ubutom> banker247, could e, did it manually
[20:16] <grkblood> Dotblank2, can i PM you?

[20:28] <jrib> mikeru: d4x or aria maybe
[20:28] <KenBW2> ActionParsnip: it's a VM of Ubuntu Server, i cant do that
[20:28] <ActionParsnip> mikeru: use wget then ;)
[20:28] <draginxx> ubutom: correct
[20:28] <mikeru> ActionParsnip: it doesn't do segmented downloading
[20:28] <draginxx> I tried booting up in safe mode
[20:29] <draginxx> and it says ata5: device not ready
[20:29] <solow> guntbert, I am being polite, I just don't want to use the terminal for this. And why am I warned? also, why is access restricted to this dir?
[20:29] <ubutom> draginxx, do you know the device name of your root partition?
[20:29] <draginxx> and ata5: SRST failed
[20:29] <ActionParsnip> KenBW2: sure you can, hold shift at boot and boot to recovery root there, or mount the cd in the vm and boot that
[20:29] <M1DLGpc> I installed 10.4 and something has corrupted, I pastebin-ed the errors I get when I install something, I cant seem to fix it. I can't even install an IRC client on that machine
[20:29] <M1DLGpc> http://pastebin.com/J34jPEgA
[20:29] <ubutom> draginxx, like dev/sda /sdc or whatever
[20:29] <draginxx> ? What do you mean?
[20:29] <jrib> solow: because regular users should only be able to write to their HOME usually
[20:29] <solow> jrib, I see....
[20:30] <solow> So no need for me not to use the terminal.
[20:30] <guntbert> solow: the enhaced security of linux stems partly from the principle that a regular user has rights only in his own home-directory
[20:30] <look> solow, regular users will never try to wright anything to /etc or /boot
[20:30] <ubutom> draginxx, well, each device has its own device name
[20:30] <jrib> solow: I don't know, I've asked you twice questions about what you are doing but you didn't answer
[20:30] <draginxx> ubutom: right i have no idea on how I would even know what devices i have
[20:30] <solow> jrib, it's kind of hard to keep track with this many people talking
[20:30] <ubutom> draginxx, are you on a rescue prompt right now?
[20:31] <look> draginxx, use lspci
[20:31] <draginxx> ubutom: i tried but it brought me back to the initramfs thing
[20:31] <jrib> solow: so...  what exactly are you attempting to do?
[20:31] <draginxx> look: lspci?
[20:31] <solow> jrib, install zf. using my own library.
[20:31] <look> draginxx, are you at a bash prompt?
[20:31] <draginxx> look: it looks like that
[20:31] <jrib> solow: what does "using my own library" mean?
[20:31] <draginxx> lspci: command now found
[20:31] <draginxx> not*
[20:31] <siddhion> hi everyone
[20:31] <ManDay> What is Mouse-"Sensitivity" and why does it not change anything if I change it?
[20:32] <look> draginxx, oh, your missing your vmlinuz
[20:32] <solow> where did the pencil go btw? I have ubuntu 10.4 right now, and normally there's a pencil that allows me to write the dir myself, where did it go? lol
[20:32] <draginxx> look: how do I get it back? :p
[20:32] <jhattara> my gdm got completely stuck, is there any way to restart the gdm, without restarting the whole computer again?
[20:32] <look> draginxx, i would have no idea, never had the problem before.
[20:32] <solow> jrib, zf has a library folder, I've altered this a lot. So I wish to use this folder.
[20:33] <Firefishe> jhattara:  Generally:  sudo service gdm restart
[20:33] <draginxx> daaaamn ok well i think my HD is messed up then....i wonder if an external - internal hd thing can still read whats on there
[20:33] <Firefishe> jhattara:  Just be advised to save whatever it is you're working on currently.
[20:33] <guntbert> solow: I told you how you *can* do it -- what is the problem now?
[20:34] <ubutom> look, that's what happened "Gave up on waiting for root device. Commong problems: Boot args, check rootdelay, check root, missing modules" "Alert! /dev/disk/by-uuid/c4 ......  does not exist. Dropping to shell!"
[20:34] <solow> guntbert, that I don't know the path to my usb device. So I'd like to know where the pencil is in 10.4
[20:34] <ubutom> and now draginxx  wants to know if the hd is toast or not and I am not sure how to check that ;D
[20:34] <brontoeee> the solution to fix 'bluetooth mouse not working' problem was to install blueman btw
[20:35] <ubutom> draginxx, triey booting a livecd?
[20:35] <jrib> solow: good.  Now, I can't tell you of a way to do this properly without some terminal usage.  Ideally, you would grab the source package for the deb in the repositories and modify that.  Then rebuild the deb.  Just copying what you have done directly into /usr/local/ is not advisable.  If you want to ignore my advice (you shouldn't), gksudo nautilus will give you a nautilus instance that runs as sudo.
[20:35] <jrib> Seriously though, learn the proper way
[20:35] <ubutom> *tried
[20:35] <jhattara> Firefishe, let's see if that works, i already tried /etc/init.d/gdm restart, and nothing happened on the computer
[20:35] <draginxx> ubutom: no actually what live cd should I use?
[20:35] <ubutom> draginxx, ubuntu install disc will do
[20:35] <Firefishe> jhattara:  Hmm...strange it didn't do anything from *that* directory.  Did you sudo?
[20:36] <jhattara> Firefishe, i'm currently using it remotely, but the actual computer showed no changes from earlier restart
[20:36] <solow> jrib, yes. I want to do it the proper way...
[20:36] <jhattara> Firefishe, yeah, of course i used sudo
[20:36] <kilonux> hello, tired of typing a long password, how to make 10.04 accept a short one (3 characters)?            /etc/pam.d/common-password  is not very verbose on this.
[20:36] <nitridr> Hello anyone know of a program that will allow me to program keys to say certain things? I have a friend who is parapalegic and he cant talk, I would like to find a way for him to be able to communicate..
[20:36] <draginxx> ubutom: true, ok thanks mate :) ill try to get it with thel ive cd
[20:36] <jrib> !source > solow
[20:36] <Firefishe> jhattara:  Well, I'm not famliar with remote practices.   It could be a permissions issue.  This your box?
[20:36] <guntbert> solow: I don't know where the pencil went, but if you plug in your device you usually get an icon on the desktop
[20:36] <ubutom> draginxx, hopefully ou can access the data on the disk from there ;)
[20:37] <jhattara> Firefishe, yeah, my local home box, currently 5 meters away from my laptop
[20:37] <Firefishe> heh
[20:37] <Firefishe> I see
[20:37] <solow> so, sudo apt-get install zf
[20:37] <draginxx> ubutom: let's assume th live cd works how would I get to the hd's content?
[20:37] <Firefishe> jhattara:  Well, you could just log out, restart the x server from the gui login page, then log back in.
[20:37] <jhattara> i can connect to it via SSH, but nothing happens on the screen and the keyboard lights don't react to anything
[20:37] <Firefishe> jhattara:  Sounds like the remote proggie is acting up.
[20:37] <jrib> solow: that will show you how to rebuild a debian package.  Try it out on zend-framework.  What are these changes exactly by the way?  Are these patches to zf that you want to maintain forever against upstream?
[20:37] <Firefishe> jhattara:  Or ssh is not behaving
[20:38] <ubutom> draginxx, you should be able to explore the box and mount it with a simple click
[20:38] <M1DLGpc> I installed 10.4 and something has corrupted, I pastebin-ed the errors I get when I install something, I cant seem to fix it. I can't even install an IRC client on that machine. http://pastebin.com/J34jPEgA
[20:38] <jhattara> Firefishe, absolutely nothing happens on the local machine
[20:38] <Firefishe> jhattara:  Well, then log in to it directly.  Although, I surmise that operating *remotely* is part of your *desired* practice at this moment?
[20:38] <jhattara> Firefishe, i'm currently logged in to my computer with SSH, but on the monitor and keyboard physically connected to it, nothing happens
[20:39] <solow> jrib, this is the latest zf version, but with a lot of additional code on my own namespace. I just don't like the idea of being restricted access into copying files.
[20:39] <Firefishe> jhattara:  That's weird....module loading problem?
[20:39] <llutz> jhattara: what do you expect to happen?
[20:39] <jhattara> Firefishe, i can't login directly, because nothing happens on the screen, gdm got stuck, using keyboard does absolutely nothing
[20:39] <webroasters> hey guys, i just lost the ability to cut, copy paste from my home folder, wtf...
[20:39] <ubutom> draginxx, if i am correct, fsck should be done while the disk isn't mounted, either way you can see the device name of the disc and use fsck accordingly, like fsck /dev/sda
[20:39] <webroasters> ive done the chown thing and the chmod thing
[20:40] <jhattara> but the computer is still operating on OS level, as i can connect to it remotely
[20:40] <jrib> solow: think about it.  Do you think a regular user should be able to modify the system that affects all users?  Of course not!  But you can give certain users admin privilegs by allowing them to sudo.  By default the first user you created during install has this ability
[20:40] <Firefishe> jhattara:  Well, as a test, I'd reboot it, making sure that *nothing* else is connected to it.  I'd even disconnect it from the 'net if it is, just to see if the monitor and keyboard can be detected as-is.
[20:40] <jrib> webroasters: from home to where?
[20:40] <webroasters> to another folder within home
[20:40] <guntbert> M1DLGpc: it seems you have the "partner" repository twice in your /etc/apt/sources.list
[20:40] <chakravanti> So I've been having problems getting my new monitor (ASUSMS226H) to because of bad EDIDs so i've gotten read-edid which fails to pull from HDMI but seems to pulls something from VGA but parse-edid just hangs
[20:40] <jrib> webroasters: example?
[20:40] <webroasters> i can't copy anything
[20:40] <solow> jrib, I get the point... Thanks anywayz.
[20:40] <Firefishe> jhattara:  Also, disconnect and reconnect the keyboard and monitor.  Sometimes jacks get dusty.
[20:40] <webroasters> it's all greyed out
[20:40] <webroasters> when i right click on something
[20:40] <M1DLGpc> guntbert, who do I do to fix it?
[20:41] <Firefishe> jhattara:  Blow into the jacks to dislodge dust, if any.  Use pure air in a can if you have it.
[20:41] <hebfftijd> does samba give a solution on printing on a windows connected printer
[20:41] <hemza> how to kill an application that not respond
[20:41] <Firefishe> hemza:  xkill is handy.  open a terminal, type:  xkill     Then mouse over the app you want to terminate.
[20:41] <webroasters> @hemza: right click on your dock, and then add to panel... Then find the force kill app
[20:41] <ubutom> hemza, alt f2 and xkill and then click on the window, is a nice graphical method ;)
[20:41] <knoppix> while upgrading to 10.4, my system locked up, i had to power cycle, now X wont even load, what do i do?
[20:42] <Firefishe> hemza:  Then click on it.  Just be careful not to click on anything else, especially the desktop.
[20:42] <webroasters> anybody know why i have just greyed out cut, copy, paste in my own home folder
[20:42] <webroasters> i've done the chown, chmod commands
[20:42] <guntbert> M1DLGpc: open system/administration/software sources, tab "other sources", are there two lines with "partner" ? then uncheck one
[20:43] <jrib> webroasters: for us to help you, you need to answer questions
[20:43] <webroasters> im sorry, i must have missed it
[20:43] <webroasters> what question
[20:43] <llutz> webroasters: why do you use commands, you don't know what they do? chown/chmod it back
[20:43] <jhattara> well, is there any way to see what's wrong with the computer if it can be reached remotely, but not locally ?
[20:43] <webroasters> no, i know what they do
[20:43] <M1DLGpc> guntbert, I think i worked it out. I'll see if that fixes it. thank you m8
[20:43] <jrib> webroasters: what is a specific example of a directory you cannot copy?
[20:43] <GhostFreeman_> I have a question about support for ralink-based wifi cards and the latest release of Ubuntu
[20:43] <webroasters> /home/user/test  to   /home/user/folder/test
[20:43] <webroasters> an example
[20:44] <jrib> webroasters: what is « ls -ld /home/user/test »
[20:44] <webroasters> ok, let me check...
[20:44] <alexander> Hello all :) Little question: why cannot I extract dev folder on my desktop? All the file in dev folder are getting zero size :( Runnig as pure root...
[20:44] <hemza> i use xkill it is very good... i thought that windows is more developped ... but i am stupid
[20:44] <hemza> thank you all
[20:44] <guntbert> M1DLGpc: you're welcome :-)
[20:44] <jrib> alexander: erm, "running as pure root" means?
[20:44] <webroasters> drwxr-xr-x 54 wbeeler wbeeler 4096 2010-06-06 15:29 /home/wbeeler/
[20:44] <alexander> jrib means login as root
[20:45] <jrib> alexander: what exactly are you executing as root?
[20:45] <rocket16> Friends, found a nice list of Linux games. For those who are interested, check out http://www.whylinuxisbetter.net/items/free_games/index.php?lang= (Just got, and thought of sharing it)
[20:45] <jrib> webroasters: that's not what I asked you to run.
[20:45] <ubutom> hemza, taskamanger is handy in windows
[20:45] <Random832> alexander: what do you mean by extracting dev folder?
[20:45] <kreppnar> hey, does anyone know what package replaced xlibs?
[20:45] <webroasters> ls -ld /home/wbeeler/
[20:45] <webroasters> what are you talking about
[20:45] <nmvictor> I recently changed my TERM environment variable for xterm to xterm-256colors using the "export TERM=xterm-256colors" line in my .bashrc, i revrted it back with "export TERM=xterm" but since then mocp and cmus just hang even to the exit commands. Any help please...
[20:45] <jrib> webroasters: what is « ls -ld /home/user/test »?
[20:46] <alexander> jrib: setting root password, logout as user and login as root. I' ve tried gksudo, sudo and all other things before...
[20:46] <webroasters> i have no idea what you're asking
[20:46] <jrib> webroasters: when I asked for an example, I meant an actual directory, so that this confusion wouldn't happen now.
[20:46] <webroasters> i ran the ls -ld folder
[20:46] <hemza> ubutom .. what mean
[20:46] <X-Sleepy-X> alexander: have u tried sudo su ?
[20:46] <jrib> webroasters: let's start over.
[20:46] <webroasters> omg, 1 sec...
[20:46] <guntbert> !noroot | alexander
[20:46] <nmvictor> !wfm
[20:46] <ubutom> hemza, well, it's the way i kill applications in windows
[20:47] <guntbert> X-Sleepy-X: don't recommend that  - tell alexander to use sudo -i
[20:47] <webroasters> drwxr-xr-x 4 wbeeler wbeeler 4096 2010-03-16 00:24 /home/wbeeler/Temporary
[20:47] <webroasters> there's a folder for ya
[20:47] <jrib> alexander: you didn't answer my question.  Again, what exactly are you executing as root?
[20:47] <kermit> while upgrading to 10.4, my system locked up, i had to power cycle, now X wont even load, what do i do?
[20:47] <X-Sleepy-X> guntbert: oh sry
[20:47] <alexander> ubottu & jrib: erm... thanks :)
[20:47] <Firefishe> brb
[20:47] <nmvictor> !wfm | ubottu
[20:47] <ubutom> hemza, though I think there is an application similar to xkill availabe fpr windows
[20:47] <jrib> webroasters: good.  Can you verify that right clicking on ~/Temporary does not offer you the option to "copy"?
[20:47] <guntbert> !askthebot | nmvictor
[20:48] <hemza> i know about taskmanager .. but it is not very efficient .. . often with some app it do not work
[20:48] <webroasters> yeah, it doesn't offer the copy option
[20:48] <jrib> webroasters: press "reload" in nautilus
[20:48] <jasper> So i have the pkg1.run for my nvidia card but im a little lost on how to get this bad baby installing? Anyone care to give a newb a hand?
[20:48] <aj00200> Is there a program that can capture video from a usb port?
[20:48] <jrib> !nvidia | jasper
[20:48] <webroasters> same thing
[20:48] <webroasters> i tried btw
[20:49] <webroasters> *i tried that btw
[20:49] <hemza> i never try to uninstall a package from ubuntu .. hw to do that
[20:49] <ManDay> What is Mouse-"Sensitivity" and why does it not change anything if I change it?
[20:49] <jrib> webroasters: that's pretty strange.  Can you verify you can copy the directory through a terminal?
[20:49] <ManDay> Does no one in this channel know?
[20:49] <ManDay> Does no one in this channel know?
[20:49] <jrib> !helpme | ManDay
[20:49] <webroasters> ill try the terminal
[20:49] <guntbert> hemza: use your favourite package manager
[20:49] <jasper> that gives all the other ubuntu's but this is 10.04 lts?
[20:49] <ubutom> hemza, yeah, thats rpght, some processes just won't die. Uninstall can be done with the package manager or via shell
[20:50] <ManDay> !repeat
[20:50] <ManDay> !attitude
[20:50] <jrib> !who | webroasters
[20:50] <Gerwin> ManDay: It's how sensitive your mouse reacts to movement
[20:50] <ManDay> Gerwin, then see part two of my question.
[20:50] <ManDay> Only acceleration changes something
[20:50] <webroasters> ubottu: ok
[20:51] <Zelozelos> how do i make a launcher that will launch a root-permissioned nautilus?
[20:51] <guntbert> !askthebot > ManDay
[20:51] <hemza> when i had installed ubuntu i didn't make a partition Swap , because i am beginner and i install it side to side with MS win Vista ... can i now make this partition
[20:51] <ubutom> ManDay, for the past hour you didn't include the second part of your question
[20:51] <webroasters> ubottu: did i say something offensive to anyone? just wondering..
[20:52] <Gerwin> ManDay: I wouldn't really know, sorry.
[20:52] <Slart> Zelozelos: you can create a launcher that runs "gksudo nautilus". You'll still have to enter the password though
[20:53] <Slart> webroasters: ubottu is just a bot, if he/she/it said something to you it was probably from someone in the channel
[20:53] <Zelozelos> Slart, the password part is ok, i tried sudo nautilus but it didnt prompt for the password, so its gksudo nautilus
[20:53] <webroasters> jrib: it must have been that I had tried to create a new folder that never got created, because I tried to make a folder and everything went to hell for a sec, and then it all came back up. now i'm able to copy, etc.
[20:53] <jasper> that nvidia page is no help :/
[20:53] <webroasters> slart: ok
[20:53] <webroasters> slart:thx
[20:53] <Slart> !language | webroasters, it works like this...
[20:53] <ubutom> ManDay,  Maybe it's the dpi setting, and if that isn't supported by the mouse driver it won't do anything. So, if you don't have a gamer mouse... most office mouses have only one dpi setting.
[20:54] <Slart> Zelozelos: always use gksudo for gui applications
[20:54] <webroasters> slart and ubottu: ok, but did i use language, i just said, omg
[20:54] <Zelozelos> Slart, ahh awsome, ty
[20:54] <Random832> i thought it was gksu not gksudo
[20:54] <Slart> webroasters: sure there wasn't a 'f' in that somewhere?
[20:54] <Zelozelos> gksudo worked perfectly ;)
[20:55] <Slart> Random832: I'm not really sure what the difference is between gksu and gksudo.. I've always used gksudo
[20:55] <Gerwin> Slart: Fomg?
[20:55] <webroasters> slart: where? show me
[20:55] <Random832> lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root     4 2010-04-16 00:19 /usr/bin/gksudo -> gksu
[20:55] <webroasters> slart: i looked over what i said, there's no 'f'.
[20:55] <webroasters> slart: i only said omg
[20:56] <webroasters> ...
[20:56] <gf101> so my wireless network signal has gone to junk (just on this computer) after updating a bunch of stuff (including kernel). I have atheros AR9285 wireless... Anyone have any ideas?
[20:56] <webroasters> slart: oh!
[20:56] <webroasters> slart: i said h***
[20:56] <webroasters> slart: sorry
[20:56] <Slart> webroasters: I weren't here.. I just logged on.. but this channel (and it's participants) are pretty picky about the language.. bad words, even in abbreviations aren't allowed.. omfg would be considered bad.. omg shouldn't be a problem if you ask me
[20:57] <hemza> how about swap
[20:57] <webroasters> slart: no, but I said, hell, and I shouldn't say any of that
[20:57] <Euthanatos> Ha....so I finally got 1080p working!  unfortunately my screen sits about an inch to the left of my 'real' screen.  Any ideas how i go about fixing that?
[20:57] <webroasters> slart: sorry
[20:57] <Euthanatos> http://pastebin.com/d9MpbVi9 <-Xorg.conf derived from read-edid
[20:57] <Slart> webroasters: no worries
[20:57] <Euthanatos> (monitor section)
[20:57] <unop> Random832, gksu can be configured as a front-end for either su or sudo (via gksu-properties) - and i believe it behaves differently depending on the name used to invoke it.
[20:58] <webroasters> jrib: thanks for your help, it must have been user error, as it is normally
[20:58] <anste> hello
[20:59] <webroasters> brb
[20:59] <chalcedony> if i want to scp files from a directory, rather than the entire directory, what's the command to do that?
[21:00] <sdoherty> hello
[21:00] <hemza> is there a software like CCLEANER in ubuntu
[21:00] <llutz> scp dir/file host:/target
[21:00] <llutz> chalcedony: ^^
[21:00] <Slart> hemza: not that I know of.. it's a registry cleaner, right?
[21:00] <chalcedony> llutz, ty
[21:00] <tpixl> hello
[21:00] <hemza> Slart, yes
[21:01] <solow> how do I restart a service on terminal?
[21:01] <nmvictor> is their a particular ~/.file i can delete to revert the original theme ang gtk setting seen in the first login after installation
[21:01] <guntbert> hemza: linux has no registry - so no cleaner :-)
[21:01] <h00k> solow: sudo service [servicenamehere] restart
[21:01] <mumu> From there you are, China
[21:01] <unop> solow, or.  sudo invoke-rc.d $service restart
[21:01] <hemza> but i need to delete temp file and history
[21:01] <Slart> hemza: well.. linux doesn't have a registry.. gnome has some kind of registry like little monster but it's not as big as in windows.. (nor is it as important to the system)
[21:01] <solow> thanks
[21:02] <hemza> i do not like to kept my history by system
[21:02] <chalcedony> llutz, scp: /home/chull/Desktop/Picture/Wedding-name-name : not a regular file
[21:02] <nmvictor> is their a particular ~/.file i can delete to revert the original theme ang gtk setting seen in the first login after installation
[21:02] <Zelozelos> that is a good question though, if i wanted 2, how would i return ubuntu to its orig installed state?
[21:02] <jrib> webroasters: no problem!
[21:02] <jerry_> Hey, gnome crashes on start, however the failsafe gnome works.
[21:02] <llutz> chalcedony: scp dir/file host:/target
[21:03] <h00k> chalcedony: scp -r if it is a directory
[21:03] <hemza> no registry .. i know that .. but how about temp files and history
[21:03] <chalcedony> llutz, h00k ty
[21:03] <ubutom> hemza, theres a program called janitor which sould do these things
[21:03] <oCean_> hemza: while keeping command history is very useful, you can set the number of lines kept in history file through value of HISTSIZE= in your ~/.bashrc file
[21:04] <ubutom> hemza, it can be installed via package manager
[21:04] <nmvictor> anyone know how i can revert to the gnome desktop setting seen after ubuntu installation
[21:04] <chalcedony> h00k, YAY! it was the -r :)
[21:04] <jerry_> How do i start trouble shooting gnome session crashing on start?
[21:04] <M1DLGpc> guntbert, r u still there? I still can't get updates or install software, that fix didn't work. any ideas?
[21:05] <jrib> jerry_: create a new user and verify it does not happen there
[21:05] <Frigga_Frag> Need help making my webcam run
[21:05] <guntbert> M1DLGpc: what is the error message now?
[21:05] <jrib> nmvictor: just the panels, or more?
[21:05] <Frigga_Frag> I'm running Ubuntu 9.10
[21:05] <jerry_> this is a new install,
[21:05] <jerry_> jrib: this is a new install first user, also the live cd had issue running the session
[21:06] <jrib> jerry_: you have never logged in successfully?
[21:06] <SoftwareExplorer> Is there a way to find out the fingerprint of a ssh key when I have the public and private keys in files on my hard disk?
[21:06] <hemza> tnx all
[21:06] <h00k> jerry_: verify the MD5 on your CD/ISO
[21:06] <h00k> !verify | jerry_
[21:06] <nmvictor> jrib: panels plus the theme, look and feel that is
[21:06] <jerry_> jrib: i log in throught the gnome fail safe session fine
[21:06] <M1DLGpc> same i think, looks about the same, I sort of have installed xchat, (I just noticed) I still get messages, wait one
[21:06] <jrib> !resetpanels | nmvictor
[21:06] <jerry_> jrib: cd is good tested already
[21:06] <jrib> nmvictor: and choose Human in Appearance
[21:07] <jrib> jerry_: so the answer to my question is "yes"?
[21:07] <sdoherty> my ipod touch wont mount anymore idk what happened it was working just fine one min then not the next

[21:07]  * bathroom turd
[21:07] <kermit> while upgrading to ubuntu 10.4, my system locked up, i had to power cycle, now X wont even load, what should i do?
[21:07] <sanjay> How does Xubuntu compare with ubuntu?
[21:07] <dinosaurvskitten> it seems like compositing is making alt-tab incredibly slow. Is there a way to speed it up without having to disable compositing completely?
[21:07] <bathroom> Xubuntu has feces on it
[21:08] <ScsiIssue> Hey ppl - I'm having trouble with installing ubuntu - it recognizes my scsi drives but can't create a partition on it. Nothing is helping on the forums.
[21:08] <oCean_> bathroom: stop please
[21:08] <oCean_> ty :)
[21:08] <M1DLGpc> k-lined lol
[21:08] <Slart> sanjay: it uses xfce instead of gnome.. it looks a little different.. I think it's supposed to be a bit lighter on the system resources as well..and it's more blue than brown =)
[21:08] <h00k> sanjay: XFCE is a different light-weight desktop environment
[21:08] <suigeneris> !lamp
[21:08] <jrib> jerry_: you have never logged in successfully not using the failsafe session?
[21:08] <dinosaurvskitten> oh and alt-shift-tab does the same as alt-tab instead of going backward
[21:08] <sanjay> Thanks to both of you.
[21:09] <sanjay> I will give it a shot and then see.
[21:09] <ManDay> thanks ubutom
[21:09] <M1DLGpc> guntbert, just installing (or trying to) something, i'll pass on the errors as soon as I have

[21:09] <jerry_> jrib: i set those options for this installation and still doesn't work.
[21:09] <X-Sleepy-X> dinosaurvskitten: and is longer to write out

[21:14] <nmvictor> Upon unplugging my AC, my iBook laptop would stay put for some few minutes before the monitor is blurred/deformed then it goes off.why is this the case ?
[21:15] <kodemunki> dpkg still checks for LIB_PATH on ubuntu right?
[21:15] <guntbert> M1DLGpc: I only can see that the real error is stated in line 88 but I have no idea what caused it
[21:15] <twomonkies> Which is the best way to change disk and keep the ubuntuinstallation with reinstall?
[21:15] <twomonkies> without reinstall*
[21:16] <t3chkommie> hey guy i need some help setting up an imap server on 10.04... i have spent almost 10 hrs working no this and have gotten no where HELP!
[21:16] <M1DLGpc> guntbert, OK, I dont know yet. I will sleep on it, it's very odd. If push comes to shove i'll just reinstall.
[21:17] <mfpcokets> Hi, I bought a shitty sdhc card off ebay (and im most positive it was going to be bootleg when I ordered it, but figured id test it out)  and im looking for a way to monitor the performance of the card.   Anyone have a well known program or command line command to test R/W output?
[21:17] <M1DLGpc> guntbert, thanks again
[21:17] <ubutom> twomonkies, dd will work, or partimage or software like clonezilla
[21:17] <guntbert> t3chkommie: what server did you install and how?
[21:17] <nmvictor> why would my monitor just go off after unplugging my AC, does someone want to have a look at my /etc/X11/xorg.conf ?
[21:17] <jerry_> hmmm? What should i do about Gnome crashing on start?
[21:17] <yoox> Hello is here some peoples who can speak russian?
[21:18] <un214> Is there a force-blacklist to set a module to be never be loaded?
[21:18] <t3chkommie> guntbert, i have 10.04 lts server, with postfix, dovecot, and squirrelmail... ive installed and uninstalled allot of crap traying to fix the problem. so im down with whever will work with 10.04
[21:18] <acerimmer_> !ru>un214
[21:18] <oCean_> !ru | yoox
[21:18] <M1DLGpc> mfpockets, most sd cards are fakes on ebay, very few real ones. google "sosfakeflash"
[21:18] <guntbert> M1DLGpc: reinstall is seldom necessary - you could try to ask in the channel about that error message (make certain to post the link to your pastebin then again)
[21:18] <un214> acerimmer: ru??
[21:18] <un214> I don't speak russina
[21:18] <acerimmer_> un214: neyt
[21:18] <yoox> Thanks
[21:18] <M1DLGpc> guntbert, will do, later though. my food is done

[21:19] <tm0> Hello all, my computer seems to be wanting to connect to localhost forevery thing, but i'm not using that for proxy settings, for that reason, i can't update :(
[21:19] <t3chkommie> ok thanks ! ill go there now
[21:19] <grkblood> for some reason i cant configure my second nic to connect straight to my modem. i have a straight through cable going to eth1. i have eth1 configed as ip: 192.168.1.11, netmask 255.255.255.0, gateway 255.255.255.0 and DNS as 68.87.29.164 (comcast) whe ni try to ping the dns it says its unreachable
[21:19] <jrib> jerry_: and you are positive the md5sum for the cd contents matched the posted ones?
[21:19] <kodemunki> trying to install a package with dpkg, and its erroring because i dont have a certain lib installed, but i do actually have it installed
[21:19] <guntbert> M1DLGpc: of course :-)
[21:19] <grkblood> im trying to get rid of my router
[21:19] <jerry_> jrib: tested twice. Downlaod match the md5 image. burned cd verrified by k3b. double checked. its good.
[21:19] <Slart> kodemunki: I don't think dpkg checks the actual file.. it wants to see a package installed that has a certain keyword in it
[21:20] <wessel> hello, my sound device is not recognized, it used to always work :-/
[21:20] <abuayyoub> hi anyone here use NZBget ??
[21:20] <un214> It turns out modprobe -q blacklisted-module loads said module anyway and this seems to be intended behavior
[21:20] <Slart> kodemunki: you can always use the --force feature..
[21:20] <ubutom> grkblood, use the modems address as dns
[21:20] <wessel> how can I trouble shoot my sound?
[21:20] <hemza> how to use bleutooth of toshiba laptop
[21:20] <un214> is there a true blacklist?
[21:20] <grkblood> ubottu, how do i find out the modems address?
[21:20] <Slart> kodemunki: although I would recommend trying to fix the issue instead of just ignoring it =)
[21:20] <tm0> Hello all, my computer seems to be wanting to connect to localhost forevery thing, but i'm not using that for proxy settings, for that reason, i can't update :(
[21:20] <jrib> jerry_: is polkitd running?
[21:20] <grkblood> the routers ip was 192.168.1.1
[21:21] <M1DLGpc> grkblood, ubottu is a bot
[21:21] <jpds> grkblood: showmyip.com
[21:21] <grkblood> ubotom
[21:21] <mfpcokets> m1dlgpc: Yea, I bought it counting on it being a "fake" but figured hey if it works ill use it.  Lots of info on that website, would you be able to point me towards the best "testing program" that is  linux compatible ?
[21:21] <kodemunki> yeah, so could i just add the fake package to var/cache or something and trick it to install?
[21:21] <grkblood> jpds, i have a dynamic ip
[21:21] <ubutom> grkblood, might be 192.168.1.1
[21:21] <jerry_> jrib: yep.. ID 963
[21:21] <kodemunki> because im pretty sure the package im going to install looks for LIB_PATH
[21:21] <grkblood> ubutom, thats my routers ip
[21:21] <Guest12851> hi
[21:22] <SoftwareExplorer> guntbert: Would 'ssh 127.0.0.1 -o VisualHostKey' be a safte way to test and see if what the fingerprint of the key is?
[21:22] <un214> either that or I found a case where udev should use -b and doesn't
[21:22] <tm0> Hello all, my computer seems to be wanting to connect to localhost forevery thing, but i'm not using that for proxy settings, for that reason, i can't update :(
[21:22] <frxstrem1> is there a way to bring a process not started in the same shell to the foreground (similar to the fg command)?
[21:22] <ubutom> grkblood, your modem is connected to these two boxes with ethernet?
[21:22] <jrib> jerry_: google the errors if no one here is familiar with them (I'm not)
[21:23] <grkblood> ubutom, im trying to get rid of my router, the routers ip was 192.168.1.1
[21:23] <grkblood> but, forget the whole dns thing
[21:23] <M1DLGpc> mfpcokets, I cant, but search there forums. most tools i've seen are win tools, they find the real value and reformat the disk to that size, most are hacked firmware or 'd' grade stock that should have been put into the furnice
[21:23] <grkblood> when i set it up the way i pasted i could ping dns
[21:23] <mj8741> Hi all - anyone: on ubuntu 10.04 nouveau module is not working with my nVidia Geforce 6150 LE.  Anyway to fix that?  thanks
[21:23] <grkblood> so my connection wasnt getting past my modem
[21:23] <Guest12851> .
[21:24] <un214> mj8741: well I had to purge that module from my system and use the vesa
[21:24] <ubutom> grkblood, try connecting directly to the modem
[21:24] <GhostFreeman_> How can I find a directory in Ubuntu using the terminal?
[21:24] <guntbert> SoftwareExplorer: if you use ssh localhost for the first time you are asked to accept the fingerprint
[21:24] <krabador> i'm compiling mplayer, i've done "apt-get build-dep"mplayer" and i've "Error: X11 support required for GUI compilation"
[21:24] <grkblood> ubutom, thats what im talking about
[21:24] <grkblood> thats what i tried to do
[21:24] <grkblood> this:
[21:24] <grkblood> for some reason i cant configure my second nic to connect straight to my modem. i have a straight through cable going to eth1. i have eth1 configed as ip: 192.168.1.11, netmask 255.255.255.0, gateway 255.255.255.0 and DNS as 68.87.29.164 (comcast) whe ni try to ping the dns it says its unreachable
[21:24] <FloodBot2> grkblood: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[21:24] <ubutom> grkblood, and usingdynamic ip
[21:24] <jrib> GhostFreeman_: you may use « find » or « locate » depending on how you want to search
[21:24] <mfpcokets> m1dlgpc: LOL @ that furnince bit.   Thanks.  Ill see what i can find, all I was finding on google was win tools, but have no card reader on my windows box.
[21:24] <lope> I have a kernel hang on a resume (from ram) on a dell 600m, found lots on things on debugging resume problems but none on kernel hangs :(
[21:24] <GhostFreeman_> Thanks jrib.
[21:24] <krabador> i've installed libx11-dev libxv-dev libgtk2.0-dev xorg-dev
[21:24] <GhostFreeman_> !find
[21:24] <mj8741> un214: ok, thought that's what would have to happen - thanks
[21:24] <Frigga_Frag> My lifecam isn't working on Ubuntu 9.10. Device manager sees it only as USB Camera. Any ideas?
[21:24] <GhostFreeman_> !locate
[21:24] <ks3> grkblood, 255.255.255.0 is not a valid gateway
[21:25] <grkblood> that was an error
[21:25] <EgyParadox> grkblood: Maybe your ISP blocks ping requests
[21:25] <grkblood> my gateway is 192.168.1.11
[21:25] <M1DLGpc> mfpcokets, it's possible some of these tools will run under wine. or you can find internet cafe or lame friend
[21:25] <grkblood> no, b/c i can ping dns right now
[21:25] <un214> mj8741: open sshd first as you might lock yourself out
[21:25] <ubutom> grkblood, ok, so you have 2 nics in your box
[21:25] <ks3> grkblood, but you list that as your computer's ip ?
[21:25] <EgyParadox> oh ok.
[21:25] <ubutom> one is connected to your router and the second to your modem?
[21:26] <un214> mj8741: you may find as I did that /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/video/console/fbcon.ko has to be removed. I've an outstanding bug about blacklisting it not working.
[21:26] <mj8741> un214: yeah, gottcha..
[21:26] <grkblood> yes, i have two nics
[21:26] <ubutom> grkblood, what type of modem is it?
[21:26] <ks3> grkblood, You can't use your own IP as the gateway. That's not a correct setup.
[21:26] <grkblood> im trying to connect my box straight to my modem with eth1, and use eth1 to go to a switch
[21:26] <mj8741> un214: thanks for making the bug report..
[21:26] <lwells> is there a program that lets you edit pdf files?
[21:27] <ks3> grkblood, That will try to route all traffic to your pc, which will then try to use it's default gateway, which is itself. Chicken, meet egg.
[21:27] <grkblood> use eth0* to go to switch
[21:27] <ubutom> grkblood, meaning does it also route or are you connecting directly via ppp

[21:31] <un214> seriously, I keep removing the module from disk and dpkg keeps putting it back
[21:31] <jrib> Alloeishus: there's no "djl" in the repositories that I can see
[21:31] <guntbert> punkmexic: "start from gdm" means it should start even when you are not logged in?

[21:37] <ks3> nmvictor, Does your monitor come back on if you plug power back in?
[21:37] <ubutom> wessel, why reinstall? reboot should be sufficient
[21:37] <wessel> no no I rebooted already
[21:37] <wessel> it does not find my sound
[21:37] <ubutom> oh, ok, this problem is persistent? bad :(
[21:38] <brontosaurusrex> ks3: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT says 'quiet splash', so what now?
[21:38] <wessel> I can't find the hibernate anymore :-/
[21:39] <ks3> brontosaurusrex, Add it, so 'blahblah quiet splash'
[21:39] <wessel> or the sleep
[21:39] <wessel> its like it has been removed from the power down button
[21:39] <kale> how do i get java support in my browser in 10.04 ?
[21:39] <jrib> !java | kale
[21:39] <kale> what package is it?
[21:39] <brontosaurusrex> the entire "acpi_enforce_resources=lax" ?
[21:39] <ks3> brontosaurusrex, yes
[21:39] <wessel> how do you normally put your computer to sleep?
[21:39] <brontosaurusrex> ok
[21:40] <guntbert> brontosaurusrex: and don't forget to run sudo update-grub afterwards
[21:40] <nmvictor> ks3: thanks, yea it comes back on on pluging it back but still blurred, not sure if thats the word but sort of with deformed image of the screen components, now that doesnt fix until i reboot the macHine, just if it helps, i am running Lucid
[21:40] <punkmexic> so no ones knows how to boot from gdm a virtual machine in lucid?
[21:40] <Alloeishus> if anybody can explain why djl 1.2.20 repository doesnt show the programs when not online or the folders on my HDD please msg me.
[21:41] <guntbert> punkmexic: the howto you are referring to only tells you how to connect to an already running VM, not how to start it
[21:41] <ks3> nmvictor, My best guess would be to disable the setting to reduce brightness. It's under system / preferences / power management, on the "On Battery Power" tab
[21:41] <punkmexic> i want to do this
[21:41] <punkmexic> . Log out and you will see a new entry WindowsXP in your GDM session. You can now directly open VirtualBox session without even logging in to your Ubuntu machine.
[21:41] <brontosaurusrex> ks3, guntbert ok
[21:41] <blorg> hello, how can i change  apt-proxy that it doesnt download new stuff?
[21:41] <FlameTai1> Um guys
[21:42] <blorg> i actually want to sync one pc from another, but it just pass the data thro ... from canonicial>1pc>2pc
[21:42] <wessel> hmm, when I click the power button and hit shut down, it brings me to a login menu..
[21:43] <wessel> computer is not shutting down
[21:43] <kermit> while upgrading to ubuntu 10.4, my system locked up, i had to power cycle, now X wont even load, what should i do?
[21:43] <FlameTai1> I'm running into an odd problem with sound, Amarok will play, for awhile FireFox didn't want to output sounds on Youtube I got the firefox sounds working by exiting amarok then reentering, but I still currently here no system sounds anyone have a suggestion?
[21:43] <acerimmer> kermit: can u boot to recovery??
[21:43] <nmvictor> ks3: its at 100%, you might be right. will 75% be ok?
[21:43] <Guest97691> acerimmer: i doubt that'd make X work
[21:43] <fredo> bonsoir
[21:44] <wessel> :-/ how do I turn of my computer?
[21:44] <wessel> nothing works
[21:44] <Pirate_Hunter> punkmexic, I assume you have done this before on a different distro I wasn't even aware you could do that, could you post me a link where you've seen this
[21:44] <acerimmer> Guest97691: ? kermit asked about boot? not X
[21:44] <ks3> nmvictor, Not sure. Probably have to play with the settings a bit to see if something makes it work.
[21:44] <ubutom> wessel, open a console
[21:44] <tm0> Hello all, my computer seems to be wanting to connect to localhost forevery thing, but i'm not using that for proxy settings, for that reason, i can't update :(
[21:44] <FlameTai1> Anyone have any suggestions at all???
[21:44] <ubutom> wessel, type sudo poweroff
[21:44] <FlameTai1> Sound was working fine for awhile ago

[21:46] <nmvictor> ks3: their is just "On AC Power" and "General"
[21:46] <kermit> FlameTai1: that doesnt work.. what i need to do is finish the upgrade, can i do that from the command line?
[21:46] <joeshowradio> its like i cant have them both on at the same time
[21:46] <aj00200> are there any programs to capture video off of the usb port?
[21:46] <wessel> hmm, thanks, that worked

[21:47] <Pirate_Hunter> guntbert, nice uses VB as well hmm might try that when I install lucid on the main comp, which vm does punkmexic use he could probably get it running with a script on  boot
[21:47] <USMAN> want help
[21:48] <brontosaurusrex> unrelated, in lucid if i installed blueman, do i need to unistall some other stuff?
[21:48] <punkmexic> ?
[21:48] <ubutom> laeg, xrandr
[21:48] <punkmexic> do you recommend Pirate_Hunter to wait you so you can try it on your main comp
[21:48] <FlameTai1> kermit: Give me a few I remember a command but I can't find it right now give me a few.
[21:48] <punkmexic> i use virtualbox
[21:49] <USMAN> any budy guide me about vpn
[21:49] <wessel> can I add an xchat shortcut to my panel? (program bar)
[21:49] <guntbert> punkmexic: you must start the VM before you can connect to it
[21:49] <USMAN> hello

[21:50] <krish__> hi
[21:50]  * punkmexic just one to do one click in gdm and open whatever virtualmachine i want
[21:51] <Pirate_Hunter> punkmexic, if you look on the bash scrip it states VirtualBox -startvm NameOfYourVirtualOS that is the actual command to start VB headless from command line all you need is to set it up than follow those instructions, theoretically it should work. You could wait for me but that will take a while as I've got projects I need to finish before actually installing Lucid
[21:51] <krish__> i am trying to learn how to use xchat.. any tips for me..

[22:07] <celeritas> Zelozelos, ctrl+alt+backspace should kill the xserver and then you can kill any remaining processes
[22:07] <krish__> just gonna log out n register with a good name..
[22:07] <krish__> :)
[22:07] <the_file> thanks
[22:07] <Pirate_Hunter> Zelozelos, I would use ctrl+alt+f[1-6] to move to a tty than log in and kill it from their, I had to do that before due to system being unresponsive
[22:07] <hemza> connection using Ubunutu is more speed than windows .... i ramrk that i my system ,,, but i want toi know why?
[22:07] <arand> celeritas: Zelozelos: No, use alt+sysreq+K for that porpose instead, since the first doesn't work anymore
[22:08] <SkyScrap> Hi
[22:08] <Zelozelos> kk ill try that next time, i just hate doing a hard power cycle
[22:08] <arand> Zelozelos: Or go with Pirate_Hunter's suggestion
[22:08] <acerimmer> !hi|skyscrap
[22:08] <celeritas> Pirate_Hunter, arand, ctrl+alt+f[1-6] kills the xserver?
[22:08] <arand> celeritas: No, alt+sysreq+K should though
[22:09] <Pirate_Hunter> celeritas, it doesn't just moves to a new tty unless you kill xorg session using top or any other means
[22:09] <ubutom> siddhion, control panel, system, system restore or something like that
[22:09] <ubutom> siddhion, and kinda ot here ;)
[22:09] <Pirate_Hunter> arand, 'sysreq', which key is that?

[22:12] <SkyScrap> I can provide details about both problems.
[22:12] <arand> Zelozelos: No Ctrl, unless you have a very weird mapping for hitting sysreq..
[22:12] <Zelozelos> ahh kk
[22:12] <ubutom> siddhion, doesn't make much sense to me
[22:12] <zcat[1]> any usb device that 'handles video' should be doing it much the same as any other kind of video device... so use cheesecam or whatever?
[22:12] <zcat[1]> vlc will capture video too iirc
[22:12] <FlameTai1> I'm running into an odd problem with sound, Amarok will play, for awhile FireFox didn't want to output sounds on Youtube I got the firefox sounds working by exiting amarok then reentering, but I still currently here no system sounds anyone have a suggestion?
[22:12] <aj00200> zcat[1]: thanks, I'll try that
[22:12] <arand> guntbert: You can actually enable ctrl+alt+backspace again, if need be in advanced keyboard layout..
[22:13] <guntbert> arand: aah, there is an idea - thx
[22:13] <ubutom> siddhion, close to this option are the environment variables
[22:13] <ubutom> siddhion, do you want to install xubuntu with wubi?
[22:14] <arand> guntbert: But then again, if the button doesn't work, a bugreport might be in order ;)
[22:14] <siddhion> ubuntom: i do not see "enable system restore for all disks" option in the Backup Utility. No i do not want to install with Wubi
[22:14] <guntbert> arand: just found out I already did :-)  - but the sysreq sequences are useful in other circumstances
[22:14] <kermit> how many times should i have to run aptitude dist-upgrade ?  i'm on the second run, its still doing more things
[22:15] <ubutom> siddhion, then you dont have to fiddle with any windows system settings
[22:15] <siddhion> ubutom: cool
[22:15] <Lazydude> is there a difference between the packages in ubuntu 10.04 for xchat and xchat-gnome?
[22:15] <arand> guntbert: Indeed, elephant-breeding get's dreary from time to time...
[22:15] <brontosaurusrex> Lazydude: they say there is, they also say use xchat
[22:16] <ubutom> siddhion, meaning you want to install it to your harddisk, get rid of windows and you have a backup of your valuale data
[22:16] <guntbert> Lazydude: xchat-gnome is a somewhat reduced/simpler version - I'd use xchat
[22:16] <Lazydude> k thanks

[22:18] <SeanInSeattle> Hey all.  Would someone be able to assist with this java error that I'm betting on startup of Eclipse (helios) ?  http://bit.ly/bPeHBE [stackoverflow.com]
[22:18] <Mr_Giraffe> so, for some reason the nvidia-glx-180 driver isn't being used after installation, and nvidia-xconfig doesn't seem to exist. anybody know what the problem might be?
[22:18] <abuayyoub> hi is there anyone here that uses a program called NZBGET? anyone can help me.
[22:19] <DasEi> hamzaatova_: I just looked once in it, as it was quite buggy, if you want to , I can share my small experience with it
[22:20] <quizme> where can i find the mplex package?
[22:20] <Lazydude> Mr_Giraffe what version of ubuntu you got?
[22:20] <Mr_Giraffe> 10.04
[22:20] <paultag> Mr_Giraffe, don't forget to highlight. Use tab to auto-complete
[22:21] <Mr_Giraffe> just installed it, too, so I don't think there are many weird things that could've happened along the way
[22:21] <wessel> is there some guide to learning some quick useful ubuntu stuff for newbies?
 you should right click desktop and click Visual Effects
[22:21] <Lazydude> then tick Extra
[22:21] <ubutom> Mr_Giraffe, be sure to check the driver tool, it should show proprietary drivers availabe and download them
[22:21] <Lazydude> it should automatically prompt you for driver
[22:21] <Lazydude> and you have to activate it
[22:22] <wessel> bdw, my sound is fixed by putting my pc back to sleep and waking it up again :-/
[22:22] <Lazydude> atleast thats my guess
[22:22] <Mr_Giraffe> ubutom, well...that's where it's a little problematic. the reason I tried installing nvidia-glx-180 was because installing the current version from the driver tool caused some problems
[22:22] <ubutom> Mr_Giraffe, what kind of problems
[22:22] <Mr_Giraffe> ubutom, the TTY text was large, distorted, and flickering, as was the boot screen
[22:23] <Mr_Giraffe> ubutom, desktop itself seemed fine though
[22:23] <ubutom> hhm... dunno, don't use nvidia atm
[22:23] <tr1sth3t> I'm trying to get wireless working on a Dell Inspiron E1505. I followed a HOWTO and it was unsuccessful. Can anyone help? Here is the information I have: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=9421177&postcount=1470
[22:24] <Mr_Giraffe> ubutom, gotcha
[22:24] <Lazydude> Mr_Giraffe, yeh my boot splash screen is gone also.  when i changed from version 173 to current
[22:24] <Lazydude> i have 8800gt
[22:24] <Mr_Giraffe> Lazydude, I'd like for it not to be gone though
[22:24] <wessel> Is it useful to learn work with multiple desktops?
[22:25] <Mr_Giraffe> Lazydude, the boot screen is less important than the TTY terminals, though
[22:26] <Lazydude> that is true.  i tried using splashy and gnome-splashscreen-manager with no solution
[22:26] <mewm> Do you guys use the Empathy IM client in Ubuntu, or do you use an alternative?
[22:26] <krabador> please, i typed "apt-get build-dep mplayer" for compile mplayer, but i've "Error: X11 support required for GUI compilation."
[22:26] <krabador> please help me
[22:26] <krabador> i'm on lucid
[22:26] <Mr_Giraffe> Lazydude, hmm, I see
[22:26] <alexander> Good night, fellows. I'm trying to decompress bz2 archive (this is packed angstrom file root system). It seems that I can decompress all the files except the "/dev" folder. Whenever I'm decompressing files from this folder they always has the zero size... And they cannot be opened of course. May I can repack this archive or mount it with some kind of archivator? Because after all i'm starting to think that this is not a completelyn ubuntu issue.

I copied a selection of hex values, edit->copy as->values, and want to paste them into another document exactly as I copied them, back as hex values, however, pasting pastes the hex values of the hex values.  e.g. if I copy "FF" as a hex value and paste it, it will paste the hex value o
[22:38] <necro> f the string "FF" and thus produce "66 66"  How can I paste hex value FF and not 66 66?   okteta: edit -> insert -> insert pattern doesn't allow for pasting large enough datasets

[22:45] <kermit> Flannel: a dist-upgrade
[22:45] <ubutom> wessel, encountered that on my desktop too
[22:45] <MrPagh> wessel: yes....its a problem with the 64-bit version
[22:45] <Flannel> kermit: Are you trying to become up-to-date? or are you trying to upgrade from one Ubuntu version to another?
[22:45] <alexander> _entropy_: try System->Preferences->Appearance and choose the last option. In my case the driver was installed automatically ;)
[22:45] <ubutom> wessel, sometimes it worked and sometimes I couldn't seek
[22:45] <orlandinho> _entropy_ , i use latest ubuntu 10.04 with NVidia, you just need to download the nvidia driver after installing ubuntu
[22:45] <krish_i> hi can anyone tell me how to register my nick in irc..?

[22:46] <Lazydude> Mr_Giraffe I'm gonna restart and try to change settings in grub. by restoring defaults.  hopefully it works.  BRB
[22:46] <Flannel> kermit: Ok, well, dist-upgrade won't do the latter.  But you need to do the former before doing the latter anyway, so you're on the right track.
[22:46] <_entropy_> alexander, orlandinho: i always end up in low graphics mode...
[22:47] <MrPagh> wessel: the Adobe-Flashplugin which Ubuntu installs is a 32-bit version ...with a "wrapper" around it ...the wrapper conflicts with compiz.
[22:47] <tr1sth3t> I'm trying to get wireless working on a Dell Inspiron E1505. I followed a HOWTO and it was unsuccessful. Can anyone help? Here is the information I have: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=9421177&postcount=1470
[22:47] <alexander> _entropy_: did you try reinstall ubuntu from scrath?
[22:47] <_entropy_> alexander: yes
[22:47] <Flannel> kermit: Be sure you do `aptitude update` before aptitude full-upgrade, and then once that's finished installing stuff: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes will get you from one Ubuntu version to the next
[22:47] <MrPagh> wessel: in effect ...if you temporarily disable compiz (Set Visual Effects to 'None') ...the Flash plugin works fine.
[22:48] <_entropy_> wessel: if you are using x64 try https://launchpad.net/~sevenmachines/+archive/flash
[22:48] <alexander> _entropy_: low graphics mean low resolution ? What m onitor connection do you have?
[22:48] <wessel> I'm trying a plugin of firefox called Flash-AID
[22:48] <alexander> _entropy_: DVI  or VGA ?
[22:49] <MrPagh> ubutom: yah lets hope :-) ...I've checked out the beta-version from Adobe ...however it is still not easy to integrate into Ubuntu ...and there seems to be problems still ...even tho the beta-version is in actual 64-bit.
[22:50] <wessel> thanks, got it fixed
[22:50] <ubutom> MrPagh, hm, heard alot people say Adobe isn't very able to produce good software, I mean, how long is 64Bit around now? ;D
[22:50] <orlandinho> _entropy_: actually after installing it left me on low graphics mode as well, but when going into System>Administration> Hardware drivers it displayed a warning to download specific nvidia driver, and it made the trick
[22:50] <sipher> Why is freenode's web gateway throttled off into -proxy-users? :\
[22:50] <LjL> sipher: ask in #ubuntu-ops please
[22:50] <MrPagh> ubutom: I know, you're right... its quite embarrasing for Adobe I think :-)
[22:51] <ubutom> MrPagh, on the other hand, their main focus seems to be on windows anyway
[22:51] <brontosaurusrex> ubutom: yes, even Jobs has some 'thoughts'
[22:51] <ubutom> Is Win7 also using a 32 bit version?
[22:52] <sipher> k then.. How do I control a ubuntu session being displayed on another monitor from my laptop that's running windows? I don't think VNC can do it. As in, I want a mount connected to my laptop to control the cursor on the screen of a desktop ubuntu box
[22:52] <sipher> a mouse*
[22:52] <cwillu> sipher, vnc works fine for that
[22:52] <_entropy_> alexander, orlandinho: whenever i use lucid with nvidia.current over VGA (and DVI aswell) i end up with "Ubnutu is using low graphics mode..." see here http://pastebin.org/313636
[22:52] <ubutom> brontosaurusrex, yeah, he wants to eliminate flash ;D
[22:52] <alexander> orlandino, _entropy_: And i've typed "sudo nvidia-settings"
[22:52] <eniac> Is there some kind of window manager independet menu system for X11 ?
[22:53] <pietro__> screen
[22:54] <eniac> Thought I mentioned X11
[22:54] <sipher> cwillu: hmm.. Well I installed xrdp so the laptop can connect without a 3rd party client.. but it appears to seperate the sessions. I can't move the cursor/manipulate any existing windows on the desktop etc.
[22:54] <alexander> _entropy_: try to install several versions of NVIDIA drivers :)
[22:54] <MrPagh> ubutom: yeah ...but don't you already see the paradox....in favoring a OS platform in an Internet web-based environment ... sorta defeats the purpose of web formats/standard and the whole concept of "everyone can access it"
[22:54] <_entropy_> orlandinho: when i uninstall nvidia drivers system / admin / hardware-drivers is all empty...
[22:54] <tertl3> ubuotom?
[22:54] <orlandinho> _entropy_: which nvidia card do you have?
[22:55] <cwillu> sipher, you don't want xrdb though
[22:55] <cwillu> sipher, x11vnc, and any windows vnc server
[22:56] <MrPagh> ubutom: luckily I think Flash is going to have a limited time now ... "we" wants text-based formats ...and we want them standardlized ...and Theora video, will be part of the browser, so no need for flashplayers anyways :-)
[22:56] <sipher> Say I start empathy on the desktop, when I login from the laptop I don't see the empathy window. It's a new desktop
[22:56] <ubutom> MrPagh, wouldn't be a problem if flash was good on all platforms, well, we'll see if html5 will save the day :)
[22:56] <sipher> oh
[22:56] <sipher> sry.. this chat isn't scrolling. :S
[22:56] <_entropy_> orlandinho: i have GT240 NV215 and it only works when i login in tty1 and kill gdm with "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart"
[22:56] <alexander> Hello , friends! How can I mount bz2 archive as folder in UBUNBU 10.04? :)
[22:56] <MrPagh> ubutom: :-) ...I have much more faith in text-based formats

[23:01] <ubuntu> WoW doesn't have an shell script file. Needs to be run using WINE.
[23:01] <cwillu> have you installed wine?
[23:01] <SteveThing> acerimmer: ahh, didn't see that link, thanx!
[23:01] <ubuntu> Or something along the lines.
[23:01] <ubutom> pandora, you need wine to install an exe
[23:01] <Yosi> Anyone here use a LSI 9260 with Ubuntu Server 10.04?   Cause LSI only has official drivers and control/agent software for RHEL..   but someone told me kernel 2.6 and higher has build in drivers for the Megaraid...
[23:01] <pandora> i tried to install it with wine
[23:02] <ubuntu> Did you get a D3D error? (DirectX Error), or could you not install it?
[23:02] <pandora> the wow disc says its for a mac os and it was used on my windows pc before
[23:02] <orlandinho> _entropy_ : strange, I haven't gone deep on it. I can tell you some of the packages I have installed, but it may be a card specific issue
[23:02] <dholbert> pandora, can you just download it?
[23:02] <_entropy_> orlandinho: it worked flawlessly on karmic...
[23:02] <dholbert> pandora, you can download the trial version
[23:02] <ubuntu> @Pandora: You can download it, which is what I recommend. You'll have to download the extra files after anyways, might as well take the time to get the rest from the net.
[23:02] <pandora> i tried cant find a torrent with the whole three games
[23:03] <dholbert> pandora, http://www.wowwiki.com/World_of_Warcraft_functionality_on_Wine#Method_4._Download_client
[23:03] <ubuntu> @Pandora Also, torrents won't do anything. You would need a valid CD-Key anyways.
[23:03] <pandora> well that is where the executable bit problem comes in im trying to use the trial off of the wow website
[23:03] <dholbert> pandora, the URL above says you can download the full client by logging onto Battle.net dashboard
[23:03] <dholbert> pandora, you can't directly run it
[23:04] <pandora> i open with wine and it says all that
[23:04] <dholbert> oh
[23:04] <orlandinho> _entropy_: then is has to do with latest version, don't have further knowledge on this for now :(
[23:04] <ubuntu> Anyways. I was an idiot and I'll get to waht I was doing- freaking deleted the GRUB boot partition and now it can't find where it's supposed to be, lol.
[23:04] <dholbert> pandora: chmod +x [filename]
[23:04] <dholbert> to add executable bit
[23:04] <dholbert> to filename
[23:04] <alexander> _entropy_: The ubuntu is still like roulette :) The more things you trying the more likely you achieve the goal :)) May be try x46 distributive? :)
[23:04] <_entropy_> orlandinho: but on lucid neither jockey nor nvidia settings or nvidia-current seem to work...
[23:05] <devdz> Hi, I installed ubuntu in my laptop, when I tried to decrease the light of the screen with keys, it didnt work can I do it from shell for example ?
[23:05] <ubuntu> Ffff. What's the command to change name in chat? Can't remember.
[23:05] <alexander> _entropy_: x64 of course :)
[23:05] <SirTopHat> 1579 people, that is more than I have ever seen in one channel
[23:05] <eshamow_> ubuntu: "/nick"
[23:05] <Sc00t3r> Nevermind./
[23:05] <SirTopHat> 1580
[23:05] <SirTopHat> heh
[23:05] <orlandinho> _entropy_: I have nvidia-settings working correctly. I have x64 version, maybe it has something to do with it, do you have 32b version entropy?
[23:05] <_entropy_> alexander: its worked with x64 karmic but not in lucid which seems to me like it is a HUGE bug itself :-S
[23:06] <Sc00t3r> Gotta refresh my GRUB boot so it knows where to boot from, or I gotta' reinstall GRUB. FML.
[23:06] <_entropy_> orlandinho: all x64
[23:06] <MrPagh> ubutom: btw ...do you know of the evolution imap4 problem ?
[23:06] <Futureproof> sup guys
[23:06] <SirTopHat> "How many people do you think are in #ubuntu?" "Two." "Wha-what!"
[23:06] <nuboon2age> tr1sth3t: the font/typeface is so small its hard to read.  How about just putting [code][/code] tags around it?
[23:06] <Futureproof> I did something foolish
[23:06] <ubutom> MrPagh, no, I'm using thunderbird
[23:07] <Sc00t3r> Anyone got the terminal command to refresh the GRUB installation
[23:07] <tr1sth3t> nuboon2age, rgr
[23:07] <pandora> does anyone know of a game like wow that is native to linux that i can play cause this is all too confusing right now
[23:07] <rhin0> i as nomic am so impressed by ubuntu
[23:07] <rhin0> i run ubuntu
[23:07] <Sc00t3r> There are almost no games that are designed specifically for linux.
[23:08] <Sc00t3r> Honestly, you'll almost always have to run it through WINE.
[23:08] <MrPagh> ubutom: ha!...and I'm forced to use both Thunderbird and evolution at the same time ...at the moment...damn
[23:08] <krabador> i would like to know how much are the dev files of X11
[23:08] <Futureproof> I'm reading a text book on linux administration and I'm playing around with the sudoers file. I managed to lock my only group out of sudo before unlocking the root account
[23:08] <nuboon2age> Sc00t3r: isn't it something like grub-update?
[23:08] <rhin0> a long long time ago i ran windows i would rather tear my fingernails out or poke myself in the eye than run windows again
[23:08] <pandora> well wow is giving me a headache at the moment
[23:08] <rhin0> (why)
[23:08] <Sc00t3r> I wasn't sure.
[23:08] <rhin0> i was always trying to get away
[23:08] <Sc00t3r> nuboon2age: Woops, sorry. Forgot to add that.
[23:08] <rhin0> ubuntu is amazing OS ubuntu is the future
[23:08] <_entropy_> Sc00t3r: update-grub ?
[23:08] <rhin0> stated
[23:08] <rhin0> ubuntu is the future
[23:09] <ubutom> MrPagh, the more the better :)
[23:09] <Sc00t3r> _entropy_: That would work if I were root on this LIVE cd.
[23:09] <porter1> pandora, did you check the wineHQ page for WoW?
[23:09] <cwillu> pandora, a couple days without wow will do you good :)
[23:09] <cwillu> but ya, the winehq page should get you through it
[23:09] <MrPagh> Sc00t3r: Well... i.e. Unreal Tournament 2004 its distributed for Linux ...besides a lot of OpenSource games are available.
[23:09] <pubuntu> hey anybody help me on HP IR6, I want to use it on Lucid
[23:09] <pandora> its not for me its for my wife
[23:09] <_entropy_> Sc003r: sudo update-grub?
[23:09] <pandora> lol
[23:09] <cwillu> pandora, exactly ;)
[23:09] <pandora> lol
[23:10] <Sc00t3r> MrPagh: I mean higher-end games with DirectX10+. I know there are a few games and open-source games that are for Linux, but I'm pretty sure he means games like StarCraft2, etc.
[23:10] <pandora> wine hq ill have to check that out
[23:10] <cwillu> pandora, does blizzard still have downloadable trials?
[23:10] <ubutom> pandora, thought about dual booting?
[23:10] <cwillu> pandora, might be the easiest way to get it running (the trial is actually a full version if you log in with your normal password and stuff)
[23:10] <pandora> yes but thats where that problem comes in with the executable bit with the trial
[23:10] <SirTopHat> start menu -> programs -> ubuntu.exe
[23:10] <porter1> Futureproof, this article might help: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo
[23:10] <cwillu> pandora, oh, that's easy then
[23:10] <tr1sth3t> nuboon2age, ok i put in the code tags
[23:10] <cwillu> pandora, "wine executable.exe"
[23:11] <cwillu> where executable.exe is whateve rname it is
[23:11] <pandora> i type that in terminal>
[23:11] <SirTopHat> how do I ran ubuntu.msi in DOS
[23:11] <pandora> ?
[23:11] <cwillu> pandora, in whichever folder you downloaded it to, yes
[23:11] <Futureproof> porter1, thanks! checking it out
[23:11] <Sc00t3r> pandora: "sudo apt-get install wine" will work for install WINE usually, and also, if you're on Ubuntu 9.04+, you can use the Software Center for getting it more easily.
[23:11] <porter1> SirTopHat, run it in WINE or get a DOS emulator
[23:11] <Sc00t3r> pandora: If you already have it, navigate in TERMINAL to the folder with the installation executable, and type in
[23:12] <Sc00t3r> pandora: 'sudo wine "exectuable.exe". Terminal is case-sensitive, so capitalization counts.
[23:12] <porter1> SirTopHat, are you trying to use Wubi?
[23:12] <Alloeishus> I want to dual boot ubuntu and win7. is it possible to install ubuntu the win7 or do I have to have win7 first?
[23:12] <pandora> im using lucid based linux 10.04
[23:13] <Sc00t3r> I'll be back. Going to install lubuntu to a small partition so I can refresh my GRUB. ETA 15 minutes?
[23:13] <ubutom> Alloeishus, the latter is recommended
[23:13] <Sc00t3r> Ubuntu 10.04.. Amazing distribution, honestly.
[23:14] <Sc00t3r> @Pandora Have you tried out the Ubuntu Studio yet?
[23:14] <_entropy_> it just doesnt feel right to waste my time on some things that should work out of the box... im really frustrated with the lts version ... maybe the usual support  for one year is just spread over three years with the LTS versions ??
[23:14] <ubutom> Alloeishus, Win7/Vista loader will automatically be added in grub, the other way around you'll have to tune the Win Bootloader
[23:14] <pinguim_cta> Hello Guys .. I'm from Curitiba / PR - Brazil, evangelizing Ubuntu here.
[23:14] <porter1> Alloeishus, technically you can try ubuntu then windows 7, but you will probably have to rerun the grub installation from the livecd if you try it this way.
[23:15] <maxmahem> How can I get Ubuntu to auto-mount my usb drives either not as root, or at least mount them as writable to other users?
[23:15] <pandora> its not working
[23:15] <vlt> Hello. Is there anyone using Ubuntu to sync music to his iPhone successfully?
[23:15] <pandora> i hate being a linux noob
[23:15] <Alloeishus> cant I just partition within ubuntu then install win7 into the partition?
[23:15] <pandora> i kick ass in windows
[23:15] <Alloeishus> people still use iPhones? wow
[23:16] <Sc00t3r> @vlt You can do this by running WINE with iTunes. It works just like Windows then.
[23:16] <aeon-ltd> Alloeishus: well you can and can't, its not that simple
[23:16] <Sc00t3r> @vlt but I am pretty sure there might be bugs. You can try, though.
[23:16]  * maxmahem uses andriod.
[23:16] <porter1> vlt, I have had sucess with one of the newest ipod nanos. If you haven;t upgraded the firmware in a while it might work before Apple disables the workaround.
[23:16] <corin_> dont suppose anyone here knows of decent sftp/scp software for windows that lets you transfer files between two servers, without using your local windows machine as a middle man?
[23:17] <emma> Could an op in here please adjust the topic so that users in here will be made aware that any comments they make and any help they ask for or give will be logged and then published publicly forever?
[23:17] <Alloeishus> aeon ok do you know of a site that can explain it to me. i dont want win7 but im forced to take it as my job is bending me over and shoving it into me. i dont want to lose my data already on my HDD so I need to install win7 within a partition
[23:17] <pandora> how bout that command that changes the permissions to cautious launcher or something like that for wow?
[23:17] <porter1> Alloeishus, you could try following this guide, but it's from a year ago, so tread cautiously: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1035999
[23:18] <cwillu> pandora, once it's installed, we'll get to that (I'm actually expecting it to install working shortcuts on your desktop)
[23:18] <Alloeishus> would installing winXP be easier than 7?
[23:18] <cwillu> (or maybe in the windows programs sub menu that'll appear)
[23:18] <aeon-ltd> Alloeishus: no its the same
[23:18] <tm0> Hello all, my computer seems to be wanting to connect to localhost forevery thing, but i'm not using that for proxy settings, for that reason, i can't update :(
[23:18] <porter1> Alloeishus, you can also try running Windows 7 in VirtualBox if your processor is up to the task, and you don't need directx working
[23:18] <Sc00t3r> -Rage- Partition resizing is failing...
[23:19] <Alloeishus> I have a dual core 64bit... thats all I know. I design bridges not build puters :)
[23:19] <aj00200> emma: they get a message on join for that
[23:19] <Guest11078> I just installed ubuntu 10.04 . Love it , can i easily install ubuntu studio over it or just that theme, HOW
[23:19] <pandora> cwillu, but i still cant get past that stupid bit thing it just wont work
[23:19] <aeon-ltd> Alloeishus: point is, make a partition, install win7, grub will be gone (replaced by windows mbr), so ubuntu will be inaccessible until you reinstall grub with a livecd
[23:19] <thune3> eshamow_: from way back, maybe try apt-get instead of aptitude ?
[23:19] <cwillu> Guest11078, install the package "ubuntustudio-desktop"
[23:19] <cwillu> pandora, oh, I forgot, they changed that default
[23:19] <eshamow_> thune3: this is during automated install -- just relaying messages from the log
[23:20] <Guest11078> cwillu , how from where
[23:20] <cwillu> pandora, chmod a+x nameofthe.exe
[23:20] <eshamow_> but, if i install from shell, i get the message that the package is broken
[23:20] <eshamow_> and has unmet dependencies
[23:20] <cwillu> Guest11078, package manager;  administration | system | synaptic, or check the software store
[23:21] <ubutom> tm0, just set your proxy server in network settings
[23:21] <tm0> ubutom, they are set to default.
[23:22] <pandora> cwillu, no such file or directory
[23:22] <ubutom> tm0, you say you want to use the proxy server, then you have to configure one in the settings
[23:22] <pandora> cwillu, :[
[23:22] <Alloeishus> aeon-ltd, thats not a big issue for me as it doesnt kill my current data on my HDD. I would just have to get my boot sect back in order yes? does liveCD auto repair this issue?
[23:22] <tm0> ubutom, but i don't want to, :/
[23:23] <ubutom> tm0, i don't know what default is, but it doesn't seem to work , does it?
[23:23] <ubutom> tm0, ?
[23:23] <pandora> cwillu, i dont know much about path locations on this system
[23:23] <ubutom> tm0, what don't you want to?
[23:23] <pandora> cwillu, linux still confuses me
[23:24] <tm0> ubutom i don't want to use a proxy, but it always goes through localhost. I have it set to direct internet connection
[23:24] <Sc00t3r> Pandoora, are you still trying to install WoW, or are you just looking for some other games at this point?
[23:24] <ubutom> tm0, localhost is your own machine
[23:25] <pandora> im still trying
[23:25] <tm0> ubutom i realize that, but i don't have LAMPP or XAMPP installed.
[23:25] <pandora> its a pain in the ass but im open to other games at this point
[23:25] <Guest11078> cwillu once installed , can i switch from ubuntu to studio as an option at boot up
[23:25] <Sc00t3r> Well, if I ever get my second Ubuntu 10.04 installation finished after this Lubuntu installation, I will try to give you some more help.
[23:25] <aeon-ltd> Alloeishus: no, but there is a livecd that almost does this, google for 'super grub disk'
[23:26] <pandora> thanks ill be here
[23:26] <ubutom> tm0, can you please explain what exactly you try to do and what's the problem?
[23:27] <tm0> ubutom This explains it best. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=9421160#post9421160
[23:27] <Sc00t3r> pandora: Well, I wonder.. Do you already have WINE installed, Pandora?
[23:27] <Vincent`Belmont> Any advice on which language to use to create a spider?
[23:27] <pandora> yes and i got it to run the installer at least yesterday
[23:27] <pandora> then i found a different linux distro
[23:27] <edbian> tm0, You have the arguments backward.  The URL always comes last
[23:27] <aeon-ltd> was it arch linux?
[23:28] <Sc00t3r> pandora: What linux distribution are you using?
[23:28] <Alloeishus> aeon-ltd, hmm ok let me figure this out. i will try to not throw the machine out the window due to stress.
[23:28] <dkulchenko> Since there's no FUSE module for SquashFS, what's the best alternative?
[23:28] <ubutom> tm0, do you have internet connectivity on that box?
[23:28] <tm0> Regardless edbian i can't do updates i get the same error.
[23:28] <Sc00t3r> Pandora: Personally, I suggest using Ubuntu distributions. They are extremely user friendly and very versatile in my opinion.
[23:28] <aeon-ltd> pandora: was it arch linux?
[23:28] <tm0> ubutom on it right now.
[23:28] <pandora> its ubuntu based off of 10.04 called ultimate edition
[23:28] <joshdreamland> What are the odds of getting World of Warcrack working with WINE?
[23:28] <edbian> tm0, Can you ping www.google.com?
[23:28] <pandora> not arch linux
[23:28] <Sc00t3r> Pandora: I've never heard of Ubuntu with any form of 'Ultimate Edition' attached.
[23:28] <aeon-ltd> damn
[23:28] <Vincent`Belmont> Any programmers in here? really good ones?
[23:29] <edbian> joshdreamland, High.  I've never done it buy many many others have.
[23:29] <vlt> porter1: The iPhone runs on firmware 3.0 (or 3.1).  I can read the audio tracks using Rhythmbox but my changes (adding or deleting tracks) aren't stored to the database (due to a new layout?).
[23:29] <Guest12801> Wine works well with WOW
[23:29] <joshdreamland> edbian: Thanks.
[23:29] <aeon-ltd> joshdreamland: 70-90%
[23:29] <edbian> joshdreamland, yep
[23:29] <joshdreamland> For now it looks like it dropped a render context. I'll try restarting it.
[23:29] <pandora> true
[23:29] <tm0> Edbian i'm on the IRC right now? I'm browsing the interwebs, i just can't wget or download updates
[23:29] <vlt> porter1: The files are actually stored on the device (and deleted too, so a deleted file appears in the track list but isn't playable)
[23:29] <phara0h1> Hi all, i kind of don't know what I'm doing here... how do I get to another channel? (e.g #whatever instead of #ubuntu)
[23:30] <aeon-ltd> Sc00t3r: when its ultimate its ALWAYS better, no wonder win7 ultimate is so pirated
[23:30] <Vincent`Belmont> I'm working with mysql and I'm trying to get a spider to search the web to start out a search engine any advice?
[23:30] <vlt> phara0h1: /join #other
[23:30] <krish_i> phara0h1: type /join #<channel name>
[23:30] <edbian> tm0, does ping work?
[23:30] <phara0h1> thanks
[23:30] <Sc00t3r> @aeon-ltd: I've never even heard of the Ultimate version of Ubuntu, hence why I am confused.
[23:30] <Guest12801> exi
[23:30] <pandora> Sc00t3r, the distro was from a site called distro watch.com
[23:30] <FrozenInferno> so i'm trying to run sudo commands at startup automatically, is there anyway to do that? i have a script with the commands that works in the terminal, but i want to call it at every boot
[23:30] <DrGrov> How can I install Enlightenment 17 (E17) in Ubuntu 10.04 ?
[23:31] <Sc00t3r> pandora, I just never heard of it before, hence my confusion. Oh well.
[23:31] <edbian> pandora, Ubuntu "Ultimate Edition" is not officially supported by this channel because it is not an official Ubuntu Deriv.
[23:31] <rionline> join #i7500
[23:31] <Sc00t3r> edbian: that would explain why I am confused.
[23:31] <tm0> Edbian yupp.
[23:31] <edbian> Sc00t3r, yup
[23:32] <pandora> well ill put ubuntu on then its all the same to me
[23:32] <aeon-ltd> FrozenInferno: add the commandd to sudoers
[23:32] <phara0h1> join #xkcd
[23:32] <phara0h1> shoot... where do i type it?
[23:32] <ubutom> tm0, by update you mean what?
[23:32] <FrozenInferno> aeon-ltd: what is that and where do i find it?
[23:32] <edbian> tm0, Then I think you're using wget wrong.  I can't explain your updates.  Try changing your mirror server?
[23:32] <tm0> Ubutom by update i mean like the update manager.
[23:33] <ubutom> tm0, was does cat /etc/resolv.conf say?
[23:33] <DrGrov> How can I install Enlightenment 17 (E17) in Ubuntu 10.04 ?
[23:33] <Ins|de> hello, does anyone has problems with flash on lucid? like flash buttons that do not click and such kind of things?
[23:34] <tm0> Ubutom nameserver 192.168.1.200
[23:34] <tm0> cat: say: No such file or directory
[23:34] <aeon-ltd> FrozenInferno: its in /etc/sudoers, but you can use 'sudo visudo' adding the commands as part of 'ALL     ALL=NOPASSWD:(commands here)' will make them run as root without typing the password, then you can just use cron.d to load the script at boot
[23:34] <duffydack> Ins|de, try the 64bit flash plugin
[23:34] <ubutom> tm0, what does ifconfig say?
[23:34] <felix__> alguien habla español?
[23:34] <edbian> Frozenball, aeon-ltd If you put the scripts in the correct folder they will be run at boot time as root automatically.  You don't (nor should you) edit /etc/sudoers
[23:35] <ubutom> !es > felix__

[23:37] <duffydack> Ins|de, yup.  remove the old one and sudo add-apt-repository ppa:sevenmachines/flash    and install flashplugin64-installer
[23:37] <FrozenInferno> aeon-ltd: There's a couple of ALL ALL lines in there. do i put it under user privilege specification?
[23:38] <Ins|de> duffydack, thanks, i'm going to try
[23:38] <tm0> Ubutom I know, its what bugsme
[23:38] <duffydack> Ins|de, I assume you are 64bit capable.
[23:38] <duffydack> Ins|de, by the problem you described anyhow....
[23:39] <felix__> Help me I have problems with jack, or want to go
[23:39] <Ins|de> duffydack, yep, i'm with the amd64 version
[23:39] <felix__> i have ubuntu 10
[23:40] <felix__> Help me I have problems with jack, or want to go
[23:40] <ubutom> tm0, how long do you have that problem, did it work before?
[23:41] <tm0> Ubutom Yes it did, i've had it for about a month.
[23:41] <ubutom> tm0, any hardware changes?
[23:42] <tm0> Ubutom nothing changed at all.
[23:42] <aeon-ltd> FrozenInferno: ask edbian about the 'correct folder' he mentioned
[23:43] <magicianlord> can someone tell me how to change the GDM background and font size in 10.04?
[23:43] <FrozenInferno> edbian: what folder are you talking about?
[23:43] <Ins|de> duffydack, thanks a lot !!! it worked like a charm ;)
[23:43] <duffydack> Ins|de, yeah, they should stop calling it beta and release it properly, it fixes most peoples problems
[23:43] <nuboon2age> tr1sth3t: that helped a LOT.
[23:43] <edbian> FrozenInferno, You can install a new script my adding it to the rcX.d folders in /etc.  rc1 is for runlevel 1.  rc2.d is for runlevel 2. etc etc.  To check your runlevel simply run "sudo runlevel"
[23:44] <Ins|de> duffydack, but i'm having the same problem with a 32 bit version of ubuntu netbook remix, is that problem for the 32bit release only?
[23:44] <edbian> FrozenInferno, you need to give your script a special name so that it is run.  You can see the pattern from the other scripts in the folders.  S is for start and K is for kill as in startup and shutdown.  The number following is the order in which the scripts are run.
[23:44] <duffydack> Ins|de, ive never noticed the problem tbh, 32 or 64.
[23:45] <Ins|de> duffydack, weird, it works now anyway, thanks a lot :)
[23:45] <duffydack> Ins|de, what browser ?
[23:45] <ubutom> tm0, what does cat /etc/host.conf say?
[23:45] <edbian> FrozenInferno, It is "proper to put the script in /etc/init.d, mark it executable, and then create symlinks in the rcX.d folders corresponding to the run levels you'd like the scripts to start in.  I can help with all of this.  Questions?
[23:45] <Ins|de> duffydack, in the netbook i tried with chromium
[23:46] <edbian> FrozenInferno, You, optionally, can use the update-rc.d program built into Ubuntu
[23:46] <duffydack> Ins|de, I`m not sure if it will help but have you got chromium-codecs-ffmpeg-extra installed?
[23:46] <FrozenInferno> edbian: i think i can do it, but will this work for running commands? because i thought this was just for services that run continuously
[23:46] <tm0> Ubutom it says tm0@linutop:~$  cat /etc/host.conf
[23:46] <tm0> # The "order" line is only used by old versions of the C library.
[23:46] <tm0> order hosts,bind
[23:46] <tm0> multi on
[23:46] <FloodBot2> tm0: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[23:46] <duffydack> Ins|de, im not sure if it will affect flash in chromium  (chromium daily ppa?)
[23:46] <edbian> FrozenInferno, No, this is the proper way to automate anything on boot up. What does your script do?
[23:47] <Ins|de> duffydack, cant remember.. and can't check it right now :S
[23:47] <Ins|de> duffydack, it's the chromium version from the official repos
[23:47] <Ins|de> ubuntu repos
[23:47] <duffydack> Ins|de, ok.. well try the daily if you want.. google it..
[23:47] <edbian> FrozenInferno, Any script that you want to run at start-up should be placed here.
[23:48] <duffydack> Ins|de, aside from that, I cant help really..
[23:48] <ubutom> tm0, would you mind trying the update manager and give the error message?
[23:48] <duffydack> Ins|de, its about time flash got given the red card and replaced...
[23:48] <FrozenInferno> edbian: it copies a grub config file over /etc/default/grub and runs update-grub.
[23:48] <Ins|de> duffydack, hmm ok, i'm going to try next time i'll use it, yeah, flash is getting worst...
[23:49] <Ins|de> never had these problems before
[23:49] <edbian> FrozenInferno, You want that to happen everytime you boot?
[23:49] <duffydack> Ins|de, is this with any particular site?
[23:49] <tm0> Ubutom http://paste.ubuntu.com/445786/
[23:49] <felix__> I want to play streaming Internet DJ Console, but I need the jack to work and not just me
[23:49] <FrozenInferno> edbian: yes
[23:50] <edbian> FrozenInferno, cool.  Lemme know if you have any more questions
[23:50] <Ins|de> duffydack, no, all of them, some views on youtube with the older player version (i think there's a new one, at least a different one), grooveshark, etc..
[23:50] <ubutom> tm0, that has nothing to do with ubuntu repos
[23:50] <magicianlord> well? does anyone know how to fix the GDM issue?
[23:50] <Arrr> The biggest channel on Freenode
[23:50] <ubutom> tm0, do you want to download a chrome update?
[23:50] <magicianlord> if not, i'm gonna purge it
[23:50] <FrozenInferno> edbian: ok will do. thanks
[23:50] <duffydack> Ins|de, joined the html5 ?
[23:50] <felix__> help
[23:51] <Flare183> !ask | felix__
[23:51] <tm0> Ubutom Its the only update that shows.
[23:51] <felix__> I want to play streaming Internet DJ Console, but I need the jack to work and not just me
[23:51] <Ins|de> no not yet, but i'm going to start using it, does the latest firefox supports it ?
[23:51] <supsta> hey, is it possible to change how long between sudo ask for the password? no gui apps as i have no gui its for a server
[23:51] <ubutom> tm0, in what, in ubuntu package manager or in  Chrome?
[23:51] <Ins|de> anyway, i'll be probably changing to chromium
[23:52] <tm0> Ubutom In the Package manager
[23:52] <Alloeishus> whats the best software to burn data to dvd (my ubuntu install CD and data) so I can format and reinstall ubuntu/windows?\
[23:52] <duffydack> Ins|de, the daily FF I think does
[23:52] <pandora> what exactly is debian is it online based or does it actually get installed to the computer?
[23:52] <edbian> supsta, It is!  Wanna learn how?
[23:52] <supsta> edbian yes :)
[23:52] <ubutom> tm0, installation of other packages works?
[23:53] <edbian> supsta, use visudo -f /etc/sudoers   to edit your sudoers file and add this line at the end of it:
[23:53] <edbian> supsta, Defaults:ALL timestamp_timeout=1    (which will make it last 1 minute between asking again)
[23:53] <tm0> Ubutom No, and if i switch sources, i get this issue. http://paste.ubuntu.com/445790/
[23:53] <ubutom> tm0, btw, tried that link, it doesn't exist, have you added it manually to your repos?
[23:54] <dto> hi. i'm on lucid. in rhythmbox. i press "create audio cd" on a playlist and.... nothing happens.
[23:54] <Ins|de> duffydack, hehe i see, i'll need to update my browsers daily ;) but i have to look more for html5
[23:54] <arthurmaciel> hi
[23:54] <dto> just nothing.
[23:54] <edbian> supsta, 0 means it will ask instantly, -1 (I think) means it will last until the session ends)
[23:54] <duffydack> Ins|de, chrome/chromium supports it
[23:54] <jileen> what is the best IRC client for ubuntu ?
[23:54] <arthurmaciel> how can I update from 7.10 to 8.04? I try to download files, but it does not find them on repositories. Should I upgrade the repo?
[23:54] <edbian> !best
[23:54] <supsta> okey thanks :) -1 it is :D
[23:54] <ubutom> tm0, have you messed with your sources.list?
[23:55] <edbian> arthurmaciel, You are aware Ubuntu is no at version 10.04 ?
[23:55] <Yosi> anyone here using LSI cards in ubuntu?
[23:55] <tm0> Ubutom Never touched it. Didn't know it existed till today.
[23:55] <linxeh> Yosi: LSI cards for what ?
[23:55] <arthurmaciel> edbian: yes, but the site says it is better to upgrade from one version to another
[23:55] <ubutom> tm0, but you said you switched sources
[23:55] <duffydack> Ins|de, chromium daily supports webM also.  there are a few samples on youtube..
[23:55] <tm0> Ubutom in the manager area.]
[23:55] <arthurmaciel> edbian: my laptop does not boot from usb nor has a working CD driver, so I believe upgrading this way is much better.
[23:55] <Yosi> linexh: LSI Raid roller 9260-8iCon
[23:56] <edbian> arthurmaciel, That is true.  I was about to explain that from 7.10 you now have to go through 8.04, 8.10, 9.04, and 9.10
[23:56] <arthurmaciel> edbian: ok. how can I?
[23:56] <Yosi> linexh: no official ubuntu support, but 10.04 listes support for the lsi megaraid seies
[23:56] <edbian> arthurmaciel, Ok, as long as you're aware.  In the update manager do you see a button that says you can upgrade release or something like that?
[23:57] <Ins|de> duffydack, webM ? what's webM ?
[23:57] <ubutom> tm0, strange, try other sources then
[23:57] <skx> How to add default route using network manager? I need to set the equivalent of "ip -6 route add default via some::ipv6 dev eth1 proto kernel metric 1024 mtu 1500 advmss 1440 hoplimit 64" using the network manager and don't know what to put where :\
[23:57] <tm0> Ubutom I get the error i showed before when i try
[23:57] <duffydack> Ins|de, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WebMv
[23:57] <arthurmaciel> edbian: Failed to fetch http://br.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/hardy/Release Unable to find expected entry  web/binary-i386/Packages in Meta-index file (malformed Release file?)
[23:58] <duffydack> Ins|de, basically, its a replacement for x264 that can handle 1080 hd..
[23:58] <tm0> Ubutom This error http://paste.ubuntu.com/445790/
[23:58] <edbian> arthurmaciel, What the hell?  Close that and try to search for a new repo mirror in software sources
[23:58] <laeg> Slart: doesn't show it
[23:58] <laeg> Slart: thanks anyway
[23:59] <ubutom> tm0, try some other servers
