| krabador | http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/uCN0Csuj this is my x11 section of my configure.log for my mplayer's ./configure | 00:00 |
| tm0 | Ubutom They all throw that error down | 00:00 |
| ubutom | tm0, hhhm... | 00:00 |
| krabador | please help me to find what i need to configure and compile | 00:00 |
| Gump | hey #ubuntu, anyone having problems with mplayer and streaming videos? | 00:01 |
| Ins|de | duffydack, i dont know much about video standards, but i get the idea here, but it's an open standard, and that's cool | 00:01 |
| Ins|de | duffydack, after joining html5 at youtube everything should play with html5 right? without flash | 00:01 |
| duffydack | Ins|de, yup | 00:01 |
| Gump | it used to not even support pausing during a streaming video, but now that it does, if you pause a video to let it load, and then play what has loaded so far, it plays fine up until it catches up with what has loaded and then skips to the beginning of the movie | 00:02 |
| Gump | wtf | 00:02 |
| duffydack | Ins|de, well, there are some that wont | 00:02 |
| edbian | Ins|de, but you have to use an HTML 5 browser (sorta hard to come by) | 00:02 |
| Gump | is there a way to just install divx webplayer? | 00:02 |
| Gump | i'm getting sick of mplayer and it's pathetic problems | 00:02 |
| duffydack | Ins|de, I dont know why.. | 00:02 |
| duffydack | edbian, chromium or chrome hard to come by ? | 00:02 |
| Gump | has anyone tried installing divx webplayer for windows using wine? | 00:03 |
| magicianlord | does anyone know how to fix the gdm in 10.04? | 00:03 |
| edbian | duffydack, Is it now? That's un update that I didn't know about :P | 00:03 |
| ubutom | tm0, wait, karmic? | 00:03 |
| Ins|de | i'm testing some html5 samples, and it works fine with chromium | 00:03 |
| tm0 | Ubutom Yes i should've stated that before | 00:03 |
| duffydack | edbian, lol. chrome is stable (not webM tho) and chromium daily is html/webM capable. | 00:03 |
| Gump | even VLC player, as awesome as it is, sucks at streaming videos | 00:03 |
| ubutom | tm0, those servers are dead | 00:03 |
| Gump | the streaming video streams for a while, and then skips to the beginning | 00:04 |
| Gump | i just want freaking divx player | 00:04 |
| jileen | Gump: no | 00:04 |
| duffydack | even opera is webM capable.. go figure | 00:04 |
| ubutom | try pinging tm0 k, they are not ;) | 00:04 |
| Gump | jileen: but i want it! >:( | 00:04 |

| destroth | Hey how can I create an exception to block all incoming from a certain IP 67.135.105.39 | 00:05 |
| ubutom | tm0, have you tried a dist-upgrade? | 00:06 |
| edbian | destroth, On just that computer? | 00:06 |
| destroth | anyone? its keep flooding me | 00:06 |
| destroth | with TCP | 00:07 |
| destroth | I have wireshark capturing it | 00:07 |
| edbian | destroth, add the following to /etc/hosts.deny | 00:07 |
| edbian | destroth, ALL: 67.135.105.39 | 00:07 |
| FrozenInferno | edbian: it worked, but i don't want it to run at shutdown, and it does. | 00:07 |
| Gump | i love /etc/hosts | 00:08 |
| Gump | best file ever | 00:08 |
| === Cain` is now known as Cain | ||
| edbian | FrozenInferno, Go into rc6.d | 00:08 |
| edbian | FrozenInferno, Do you see your script in there? | 00:08 |
| Gump | my hosts file is like 30 pages long. the internet is such a beautiful place with not a single ad to be found | 00:08 |
| FrozenInferno | edbian: yes | 00:08 |
| edbian | FrozenInferno, 6 is the runlevel for rebooting | 00:09 |
| edbian | FrozenInferno, You should remove your script from that folder (all the K's and S's for it | 00:09 |
| FrozenInferno | edbian: ok, will do | 00:09 |
| edbian | FrozenInferno, You should also check rc0.d and remove it from their as well | 00:09 |
| edbian | FrozenInferno, Make sure it is in rc2.d with an S name | 00:09 |
| krish_i | hi, i aam jusst getting sset up wwith IRC.. want to cconnect to irc.mozilla.org.. any ideas how to do thaat..? | 00:10 |
| maxmahem | AH HAH! I finally figured it out. | 00:10 |
| edbian | krish_i, /server irc.mozilla.org | 00:10 |
| IdleOne | krish_i: /server irc.mozilla.org | 00:10 |

| krish_i | thanks edbian and IdleOne | 00:10 |
| edbian | destroth, Should take effect immidiately | 00:10 |
| IdleOne | edbian: We was racing? :/ | 00:10 |
| edbian | FrozenInferno, k | 00:10 |
| maxmahem | To get usb-drives to auto mount as your user (not root) you need to change /etc/usbmount/usbmount.conf | 00:10 |
| magicianlord | .\\/wc | 00:11 |
| destroth | Im still getting packet from the location | 00:12 |
| maxmahem | there is a FS_MOUNTOPTIONS if you put "-fstype=vfat,uid=##yourusername##,dmask=0007,fmask=0117" the drive will be mounted as you with write permissions. | 00:12 |
| destroth | ALL: 67.135.105.39 | 00:13 |
| maxmahem | otherwise it is mounted with the usbmount processowner (IE root) as the owner. | 00:13 |
| destroth | hosts.deny (/etc) - gedit with sudo | 00:13 |
| krish_i | hi | 00:13 |
| edbian | destroth, Packets will still flow but now your computer ignores them before they reach applications | 00:13 |
| edbian | destroth, Perhaps you need an iptables rule? | 00:14 |
| destroth | Could you please explain :) | 00:15 |
| destroth | now it sending dcercp protocol | 00:16 |
| edbian | destroth, sudo iptables -A INPUT -source 67.135.105.39 DROP | 00:17 |
| edbian | destroth, Should do it. | 00:17 |
| destroth | hmm, bad argument | 00:19 |
| destroth | Bad argument `67.135.105.39' | 00:20 |

| zorprime | hello... anyone know of a link that properly puts ATI mobility 7500 drivers into the hardware manager app under 10.04? | 00:29 |
| IsmAvatar | ubutom: I'm not that advanced. I'm using the Update Manager for crying out loud, lol | 00:29 |
| ubutom | IsmAvatar, its under system settings somewhere | 00:30 |
| masterplan^^^^^^ | zorprime, I think you'll have to use the envyng or whatever they're called as older chipsets aren't supported anymore I don't think | 00:30 |
| ubutom | completely graphical:) | 00:30 |
| zorprime | masterplan^^^^^^, ok thanks... google search I assume? | 00:30 |
| masterplan^^^^^^ | would anyone have any idea as to why HD video runs really chopping\has tearing every now and then? It's not the dist, and my PC is more than capable of playing HD video (Q6600, 8GB RAM, ATI 4850) | 00:31 |

| Guest18450 | Anyone has an idea what else i could try to get nvidia driver working on ubuntu 10.04 lucid for my GT240 NV215 chip?

| papertigers | anyone know if you can check for raid5 write hole with mdadm? | 00:33 |
| masterplan^^^^^^ | Remarc, nah, I'm just using the standard effects, and previous to installing ubuntu I was using crunchbang which hasn't got any jazz on it | 00:33 |
| masterplan^^^^^^ | I installed ubuntu because I thought it may have been because #! runs on 9.04, and there was some updates\fixes in newer releases of ubuntu | 00:34 |
| Remarc | masterplan, had the same problem until i turned off all effects | 00:34 |
| Guest18450 | Here are the links again: dmesg: http://pastie.org/994340 Xorg.0.log: http://pastie.org/994343 | 00:34 |

| IsmAvatar | different, lol. Sometimes I wish I could browse the internet and listen to music while installing windows. Only in VM | 00:44 |

| rdunnion | i'm timing out like every 20-45 minutes | 00:48 |
| hiexpo | whats the command to list my dvd drives | 00:48 |

| eehouse | Is it possible to use apt-get to revert to the state of things on a particular date? I'm keeping up with Lucid updated daily and now my laptop's hosed. Want to go back a few weeks.... | 00:50 |

| JoeSomebody | is there a way in nautilis to save the column widths i set? | 00:50 |
| porter1 | rdunnion, there's your problem :) | 00:50 |
| Black_Phantom | rdunnion, you might want to limit your download and upload speed, upload preferrably | 00:51 |
| ubutom | rdunnion, limit upload/download, cpuld also be the router, it's alot of stress and some can't handle | 00:51 |
| porter1 | eehouse, even if you could, apt could only do so much as to remove certain programs, not fix configuration issues. | 00:51 |
| rdunnion | ok i did limit it to 100 i will try lower | 00:51 |
| voidmage | hey i hit alt+sysrq+r to use ctrl+alt+f1 go to a tty to kill something nonresponsive | 00:51 |
| voidmage | now when i alt+left it goes to a tty | 00:52 |
| okapi14 | hi all | 00:52 |
| voidmage | how do i undo this? | 00:52 |
| porter1 | eehouse, if you installed a backup utility of some sort then you can use that. Otherwise, just save your home folder and pop a livecd back in. | 00:52 |
| rdunnion | it is an old router and it's giving me other problems like dropping wireless connections | 00:52 |
| Black_Phantom | rdunnion, then simply buy a new one if the source of problem is from the router, routers are cheap nowadays | 00:52 |

| kermit | i just upgraded to 10.4 and the scrollwheel function of my touchpad stopped working | 00:54 |
| ubutom | Guest18450, sorry, no | 00:54 |
| Black_Phantom | okapi14, https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html | 00:54 |
| eehouse | porter1, meaning I have no choice but to reinstall? Would rather figure out which package did it. "My laptop's hosed" isn't exactly a bug I can report. :-) | 00:54 |
| porter1 | jefimenko, it might be helpful to look at the other scripts that already exist and use them to write yours | 00:54 |
| Black_Phantom | kermit, did you restart after upgrading? try installing the updates and the new kenel using update manager, if the problem is still on then its a driver problem | 00:54 |
| jefimenko | porter1: i'm looking... but i'm a little confused at services that have something both in /etc/init.d/ and in /etc/init/, like ssh for example | 00:55 |
| porter1 | eehouse, are you sure a certain package is the problem? Are you sure you didn't change the configuration of your account or the system as a whole somehow? | 00:55 |
| jefimenko | porter1: it seems like you can still use the /etc/init.d/ script to start/stop ssh, but if you "/etc/init.d/ssh stop" or "killall sshd", it still comes back up | 00:56 |
| jefimenko | porter1: so the upstart config for ssh is still working | 00:56 |
| porter1 | jefimenko, I believe that you need to use /etc/event.d for native use with upstart | 00:56 |
| porter1 | /etc/initd. are typical init-based scripts. | 00:56 |
| jefimenko | porter1: i am trying to have upstart automatically respawn a custom service for which I already have an /etc/init.d/ script | 00:57 |
| prak1 | hai can anyone say me how to run lkl in background without root authedication.....??? | 00:57 |
| porter1 | hrm | 00:57 |
| jefimenko | if the service crashes, etc. | 00:57 |
| kermit | Black_Phantom: i restarted, all updates are installed | 00:57 |
| porter1 | jefimenko, have you read this article yet: http://www.linux.com/archive/feature/125977 | 00:57 |
| Black_Phantom | kermit, and the problem is still there ? | 00:58 |
| eehouse | porter1, yes I'm sure. Haven't been doing root-level stuff except to allow upgrades. | 00:58 |
| eehouse | It's suspend/hibernate that's broken. | 00:58 |
| okapi14 | Black_Phantom: thanks | 00:59 |
| prak1 | Hai all, is there any option to run the lkl application in the background ? | 00:59 |
| Black_Phantom | okapi14, np | 00:59 |
| porter1 | eehouse, then you'll either have to go through and check the logs, and see what caused your system to be "hosed", although a specific reason why your system isn't operating correctly might be more helpful for others to diagnose. | 00:59 |
| kermit | Black_Phantom: yes.. and alps touchpad driver shows in dmesg, so it should still work, but its as if that driver isnt installed | 00:59 |
| okapi14 | Beside samba, what are other way to share files between linux pc's? | 00:59 |
| prak1 | sudo lkl -l -k /usr/share/keymaps/us_km -o ~/Desktop/prakash.log | 00:59 |
| prak1 | ??? | 01:00 |
| jefimenko | porter1: yes, thanks | 01:00 |
| porter1 | okapi14, you can try rsync, ftp, http, etc | 01:00 |
| eehouse | porter1, sorry, that's not very descriptive. It fails to suspend or hibernate: doesn't power down, but does go into a state from which powercycle is the only recovery. | 01:00 |
| jefimenko | porter1: i already have a legacy initscript for this service... so i'm really looking to add respawn support via upstart in case the service crashes | 01:00 |
| BiGViC | is losing sound normal on ubuntu I loss sound random twice now... :( | 01:01 |
| BiGViC | and I had to reinstall alsa :( | 01:01 |
| okapi14 | porter1: thanks | 01:01 |
| porter1 | jefimenko, ou are bracve. I wish there was more documentation on Upstart so people could be more used to it | 01:01 |
| porter1 | eehouse, i've had to deal with those situations. So startup works properly though? | 01:02 |
| jefimenko | porter1: yea, i agree. my problem has been finding good documentation on it, specifically how it's setup with ubuntu | 01:02 |
| eehouse | porter1, yes system boots fine. | 01:03 |
| dabuti | Hello, I'm trying to control the RPM's of my CPU's fan with no succes, anyone could help me please ? | 01:04 |
| eehouse | porter1, suspend worked fine too until sometime over the past couple of days. I suspected new kernel, but booting 2.6.31 didn't help. | 01:04 |
| porter1 | eehouse, you might have some lusk scouring dpkg.log for the installs you've done over the week | 01:06 |
| porter1 | eehouse,. by default it should keep exaclty a weeks worth of records. grep all of them and find instances where something was installed | 01:07 |
| === user__ is now known as Whammo | ||
| porter1 | eehouse, actually if you aren't on a server, you can use synaptic and go to file->history | 01:08 |
| eehouse | porter1, grep upgrade dpkg.log| wc says it's installed 59 packages this week | 01:08 |
| Sc00t3r | 'Sup guys. | 01:09 |
| dabuti | Hello, I'm trying to control the RPM's of my CPU's fan with no succes, anyone could help me please ? | 01:09 |
| brwarner | is this the support channel for ubuntu? (Kinda never used IRC before...) | 01:10 |
| mknarr | yep | 01:10 |
| hiexpo | hey guys i have more than one dvd drive on here how do i get a list of each of them ? | 01:10 |
| Sc00t3r | Yes, this is the support channel. | 01:10 |
| BiGViC | any possible explanation of ubuntu losing alsa on reboot or shutdown? happen twice now... had to reinstall both times | 01:10 |
| Sc00t3r | @hiexpo Are the DVD drives connected through the ATA cable? | 01:10 |
| brwarner | oh ok, I just installed Ubuntu 9.10 Server edition and it refuses to work with my wired internet connection | 01:10 |
| BiGViC | reinstall ALSA I mean not whole system | 01:10 |
| hiexpo | Sc00t3r, one is and one is usb | 01:11 |
| mknarr | brwarner, did you check if your NIC was supported | 01:11 |
| Sc00t3r | @hiexpo They should both be working fine then, as far as I am concerned. | 01:11 |
| brwarner | NIC? | 01:11 |
| BiGViC | Network Card | 01:11 |
| mknarr | nic - network interface card | 01:11 |
| Sc00t3r | @hiexpo They shouldn't have to be set as master and slave at the point, but to get a list.. they should be have different names under the drive list. | 01:11 |
| hiexpo | Sc00t3r, yes they are working fine just setting up dvd shrink and i got define them | 01:11 |
| === michael_ is now known as tomcat025 | ||
| ubutom | network interface card actually :) | 01:12 |
| dj_segfault | Hi, all. I just upgraded my Dell Mini 10 from UNR 9.10 to 10.04. I'm having this big problem where whenever I launch an application, a second later it goes to the background. If I alt-tab to it, or click on the icon on the taskbar, I see it then it goes into the background again. So I can't access any applications. The same goes for any dialog boxes | 01:12 |
| Sc00t3r | @hiexpo Ah', I don't think I have any expierience there. Sorry. | 01:12 |
| brwarner | I saw it somewhere saying it worked on Linux, let me find the link | 01:12 |
| brwarner | its this one: http://hardware4linux.info/component/40642/ | 01:12 |
| ubutom | hiexpo, try disk utility | 01:13 |
| brwarner | it is built into the motherboard (ABIT KU8) | 01:13 |
| mknarr | brwarner, do you know if the drivers are installed properally or at all ? | 01:13 |
| eehouse | linux-libc-dev is only providing headers/libraries for apps I compile, right -- no runtime change that could effect hibernation? | 01:14 |
| ubutom | there is all the information you need hiexpo | 01:14 |
| Sc00t3r | mknarr, I'm pretty sure that Ubuntu can detect and use nearly an NIR on it. it would be extremely weird if it weren't detecting it. | 01:14 |
| mknarr | Sc00t3r, i agree with u but there is always a chance right | 01:14 |
| brwarner | I think when I had 10.04 installed it said it was using the "sundance" module or something. This is my first experience with linux | 01:14 |
| Sc00t3r | mknarr, I suppose, I suppose.. | 01:14 |
| brwarner | I soon uninstalled 10.04 to try 9.10 to see if it would work | 01:15 |
| brwarner | because a lot of people were reporting network problems with 10.04 | 01:15 |
| tomcat025 | I would search but unsure as to where to go. I am looking to make links from my laptop (lucid) to my desktop (windows 7). I can do this in nautilus but want to have the directories/drive mapped at boot of the laptop. | 01:15 |
| Zela | is there a reason why sometime my sound on ubuntu 10.04 doesnt work | 01:16 |
| Zela | it goes out | 01:16 |
| NoPyGod | yes | 01:16 |
| Zela | whats the reason | 01:16 |
| NoPyGod | but that reason is unknown | 01:16 |
| Zela | oh | 01:16 |
| mknarr | brwarner, let me boot up my virtual machine fast with ubuntu on it | 01:17 |
| brwarner | ok | 01:17 |
| brwarner | thanks | 01:17 |
| mknarr | brwarner, np | 01:17 |
| mknarr | brwarner, ok try this man click on : System>Administration> hardware Drivers and let me no if you se ne thing show up kk | 01:19 |

| NeoCicak | has anyone ever used 2.6.33 on lucid lynx yet? and if so.... did anyone encounter any problem? | 01:21 |
| trelayne | peeps, I'm going crazy with this. I can't seem to get my wireless BCM4312 to work after upgrading to Lucid | 01:21 |
| mknarr | brwarner, ok that is good your system is detecting it | 01:21 |
| carlosfrg | donde ven rana no ven pelo | 01:21 |

| mknarr | brwarner, ok let me look up where to find your network config file again | 01:22 |
| acerimmer | trelayne: broadcom has a BCM43** linux driver available for download on their site. | 01:23 |
| kermit | how do i make ksoftirqd not constantly use 10% of my CPU? | 01:23 |
| brwarner | got it | 01:23 |

| Lurner | I'm getting closer and closer to getting samba to work right. Now, if I go to nautilus and type smb://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx ( the ip of the windows machine) I can connect to my XP machines but not to my Win2000Server that requires permissions. If I just go through the network. I still get the unable to mount error messages | 01:25 |
| Lurner | anyone have any experience with samba | 01:25 |
| mknarr | brwarner, ok navigate to this folder "cd /etc/network | 01:25 |
| brwarner | ok | 01:25 |

| jefimenko | porter1: i'm trying to emulate that behavior | 01:25 |
| StaticShock | how can i reset which panels are showing in ubuntu? | 01:26 |
| wildbat | Lurner, just input the windows login name and password | 01:26 |
| jefimenko | porter1: but starting my service with /etc/init.d/ doesn't make it show as running with "initctl status servicename" | 01:26 |
| acerimmer | !panels|staticshock | 01:26 |
| ubottu | staticshock: To reset the gnome panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » | 01:26 |
| mknarr | brwarner, next open "interfaces" with a editing prog ex: sudo vi interfaces | 01:26 |
| StaticShock | god damn | 01:26 |
| brwarner | mknarr, ok I see it | 01:26 |
| Lurner | I try that but the win 200 ser rejects the user/password combo | 01:26 |
| pr0xy | I can't boot Ubuntu from my external hard drive. Why? | 01:27 |
| mknarr | brwarner, ok what dose it say in the interfaces file | 01:27 |
| Lurner | and the XP systems don't require one | 01:27 |
| brwarner | mknarr, ok I see auto lo\n iface lo inet loopback | 01:27 |
| brwarner | then I see | 01:27 |
| brwarner | the static IP settings I tried after DHCP didn't work | 01:27 |
| mknarr | brwarner, ok im gonna try to help u setup a static ip (key word is try lol) | 01:28 |
| brwarner | mknarr, lol ok, however you can help is good | 01:29 |
| brwarner | mknarr, I assume that that's the name of the ethernet cable. I'll try that now | 01:30 |
| brwarner | mknarr, what's the quickest way to test if it works? | 01:30 |
| Sc00t3r | Do an ipconfig. | 01:30 |
| Sc00t3r | @brwarner Woops, wait, that's windows.. Lol. | 01:30 |

| brwarner | mknarr, thanks | 01:36 |
| Sc00t3r | acerimmer, using the WUBI installer it just adds the GRUB into the persistant installation, which makes it able to boot without over-writing the Windows Bootloader. | 01:36 |
| * wildbat pats Sc00t3r, " coz windows don't like linux from their bootloader. | 01:36 | |
| acerimmer | Sc00t3r: wubi means it's a windows application - NOT a dual boot. | 01:36 |

| wildbat | brwarner, can you ping your gateway? then 8.8.8.8? | 01:42 |
| ActionParsnip | buppa_: if you use mplayer it will always try and if you use nvidia it wil for sure | 01:42 |

| pr0xy | Haagimus, have you tried restarting? | 01:43 |
| Haagimus | first thing i did | 01:43 |
| wildbat | brwarner, hmmm check if the cable is ok ? | 01:43 |
| brwarner | wildbat, ok I'll check again | 01:43 |
| buppa_ | ActionParsnip, still, CPU usage is 19% .. | 01:43 |
| Haagimus | i have restarted the laptop, restarted the HDD, disconnected/reconnected the HDD, swapped USB ports | 01:43 |
| BiGViC | any possible explanation of ubuntu losing alsa on reboot or shutdown? happen twice now... had to reinstall both times... I guess no answer wierd issue though it works fine now so I guess it's ok | 01:44 |

| brwarner | wildbat, everything seems to be perfectly fine there | 01:44 |
| brwarner | wildbat, goes straight from the computer into the router | 01:45 |
| porter1 | jefimenko, soory I left for a bit. So you're trying to make sure the ssh daemon restarts if it crashes using upstart? | 01:45 |
| brwarner | wildbat, the other weird thing is that the lights for the wired connection (for each wired in computer) don't even blink when this computer is trying to connect | 01:45 |
| ActionParsnip | buppa_: i personally avoid ati and havent used vlc in a while, mplayer seems to lend itself to additional options/ I'll read the man page | 01:45 |
| mknarr | brwarner hay man do you have a spare NIC? a pci card maybe if so try that ? | 01:46 |
| alexbobP | how do I mount lvm partitions? | 01:46 |
| mknarr | brwarner because your port could be damaged or ever fried | 01:46 |
| jefimenko | porter1: ssh already seems to do that | 01:46 |
| wildbat | brwarner, you got extra cable? coz if there is a faulty pair the light can come up too. | 01:47 |
| jefimenko | porter1: but i can't figure out *how* it does it | 01:47 |
| brwarner | mknarr, I do actually, let me install it and restart and see what happens. Do I have to do anything software side to install it | 01:47 |

| eryc | hm. well i was going to try to pickup one at bestbuy | 01:48 |
| eryc | though perhaps i'll just upgrade and use ndis with this netgear | 01:48 |
| alexbobP | anyone know how to mount lvm partitions from another install? | 01:48 |
| BiGViC | you mean worstbuy fixed it for you don't need to thank me ;) | 01:49 |
| brwarner | ubutom, I can't paste cause its just in the terminal but is there anything specific you want me to show | 01:49 |
| kermit | does everyone's ksoftirqd use 10% of their CPU? | 01:49 |
| ActionParsnip | eryc: what chip does it use? | 01:49 |
| buppa_ | ActionParsnip, mplayer only consumes 7 % cpu now, but xorg consumes 20%+ | 01:49 |
| mknarr | cd | 01:49 |
| ubutom | brwarner, does the card have an ip address associated to it? | 01:49 |
| mknarr | ops ddisregard that previous comment | 01:49 |
| ActionParsnip | buppa_: what cpu / speed do you have? | 01:50 |
| ActionParsnip | buppa_: you could ask in #mplayer for advised settings in mplayer.conf | 01:50 |
| ubutom | brwarner, sudo dhclient fetches new dynamic IP if you haven't set a static IP | 01:50 |
| eryc | ActionParsnip: no clue | 01:50 |
| eryc | its a wpn111 | 01:50 |

| pr0xy | how do i fix grub so i can boot from my external hard drive? | 01:51 |
| buppa_ | ActionParsnip, but is it a mplayer problem? or is it graphic related? | 01:51 |
| brwarner | ubutom, can I undo the static settings? | 01:51 |
| ActionParsnip | eryc: attatch the device and run: sudo lshw -C network | grep -i product | 01:51 |
| eryc | and this install is too far out-of-date to upgrade without a reinstall | 01:51 |
| ActionParsnip | buppa_: probably a combination of both. | 01:51 |
| brwarner | ubutom, I tried dhclient eth0 with sudo and it said it failed | 01:51 |
| ubutom | brwarner, saldy don't know how to do that with cli | 01:51 |
| ActionParsnip | eryc: it can still tell you the chip | 01:51 |
| porter1 | jefimenko, I noticed there's a 'respawn' stanza. You might try it in your service/job file and see if it works | 01:52 |
| ubutom | brwarner, no, just sudo dhclient | 01:52 |
| eryc | oh this is Atheros | 01:52 |
| ubutom | should renew dynamic ip | 01:52 |
| ActionParsnip | eryc: yes, which model?. Atheros make a LOT of chips | 01:52 |
| Blue1 | eryc: wireless? | 01:52 |
| brwarner | ubutom, its going, it keeps trying different interval numbers | 01:53 |
| porter1 | jefimenko, as an example I found http://serverway.wordpress.com/2009/09/27/ssh-service-availability-using-upstart/ which might be modifiable for what you're trying to do | 01:53 |
| brwarner | ubuntom, failed :( | 01:53 |
| ActionParsnip | eryc: dont automatically jump for ndiswrapper. Atheros support linux quite well (some still require it though) | 01:53 |
| brwarner | let me try installing this other NIC card and see how that goes | 01:53 |
| avgbvg | hi. does anyone know how to reinstall grub? minei s broken after upgrading to lucid, symbol not found and rescue prompt. | 01:53 |

| eryc | product: WPN111, vendor: Atheros, phys id: 4, bus: usb@2:4, version: 0.01, serial: 1.0, cap: usb-2.00, conf: maxpower=500mA speed=480.0MB/s | 01:54 |
| ActionParsnip | eryc: in linux, the make and model of wireless devices is usually moot, we need to know the chip as netgear dont make chips, they buy them and make adapters | 01:54 |
| ActionParsnip | Blue1: AR50001+ works OOTB here :) | 01:54 |
| eryc | Blue1: yep USB wifi adapter | 01:54 |
| symptom | anyone else have issues with eclipse crashing? | 01:54 |
| eryc | ActionParsnip: any idea how to get the chipset? | 01:54 |
| ActionParsnip | eryc: what did the lshw say the atheros chip number was.... | 01:54 |
| pr0xy | yes, wildbat. I couldn't figure out what you meant/ what to look for. | 01:55 |
| Blue1 | ActionParsnip: AR928X Wireless Network Adapter (PCI-Express) (rev 01) = worked flakey | 01:55 |
| ActionParsnip | eryc: its like saying ATi video chip, it's too vague. The output of the command I gave tels us EXACTLY what it is | 01:55 |
| wildbat | pr0xy, installing grub2 from live CD | 01:55 |
| eryc | ActionParsnip: i dont see any further info :( | 01:55 |
| Blue1 | i used lspci | 01:56 |
| wildbat | pr0xy, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2#Recover Grub 2 via LiveCD | 01:56 |
| ActionParsnip | Blue1: its usb ;) | 01:56 |
| Blue1 | that won't work! | 01:56 |
| ActionParsnip | eryc: can you use http://pastebin.com to give the output of: sudo lshw -C network | 01:56 |
| ActionParsnip | eryc: then we can see the full output | 01:56 |
| pr0xy | oh! recover. thx, brb. | 01:56 |
| eryc | uh i'd have to haul this box to the living room to put it on wired eth | 01:57 |
| alexbobP | In Gnome's network manager, when entering a wifi password, the "ok" button is grayed out until I enter at least 8 characters. How do I fix this? | 01:57 |
| pr0xy | can I do the same via a USB or a DVD? | 01:57 |
| ubutom | brwarner, I think i may have it | 01:57 |
| jefimenko | porter1: another issue is how to get debug output if the service fails to start | 01:57 |
| alexbobP | No gnome wifi users here? | 01:57 |
| wildbat | pr0xy, yes | 01:57 |
| Blue1 | alexbobP: when using wpa2 it requires at least an 8 char password | 01:57 |
| brwarner | ubutom, ok, I installed the other card and restarted though | 01:57 |
| jefimenko | porter1: i can't figure out how to use an echo command or something like that in the pre-start script | 01:57 |
| brwarner | brwarner, but I still don't think its working | 01:57 |
| pr0xy | thanks, wildbat. brb. | 01:58 |
| alexbobP | Blue1: well that's a big problem, because the hotspot has less than an 8 char password | 01:58 |
| jefimenko | porter1: for example, to check if a configuration file is invalid | 01:58 |
| alexbobP | Blue1: so basically gnome can't connect to my wifi? | 01:58 |
| eryc | ActionParsnip: google says its AR2414 | 01:58 |
| symptom | anyone else have issues with eclipse crashing? | 01:58 |
| Blue1 | alexbobP: depends on the connection type if it's NOT wpa2 then it takes less what are you trying to connect to? | 01:58 |
| ubutom | brwarner, add the following to /etc/network/interfaces | 01:58 |
| ActionParsnip | eryc: thats better, thats what you are driving :) | 01:58 |
| alexbobP | Blue1: it is wpa2 | 01:58 |
| ActionParsnip | eryc: forget its a netgear no, just remember its an AR2414 | 01:59 |
| ubutom | in an own line each, brwarner | 01:59 |
| bra1n | hey guys i have a big problem witch main ubuntu ~ | 01:59 |
| ubutom | iface eth0 inet dhcp | 01:59 |
| Blue1 | alexbobP: i have never seen wpa2 work with less then 8 characters (personally) but YMMV applies | 01:59 |
| bra1n | i unistalling gnome-panels | 01:59 |
| ubutom | auto eth0 | 01:59 |
| alexbobP | Blue1: it makes no sense that the password prompt would enforce that, all that does is prevent the user from logging on to things | 01:59 |
| brwarner | ubutom, ok it already has that | 01:59 |
| ubutom | brwarner, this should set it to dhcp again | 01:59 |
| bra1n | a then i try to acces to ma account the password not work | 02:00 |
| bra1n | get me promt back | 02:00 |
| brwarner | ubutom, ok | 02:00 |
| ActionParsnip | eryc: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/260761 | 02:00 |
| Blue1 | alexbobP: all I know is that when I went to an 8 char. password, it worked - otherwise it's grayed out as you described. | 02:00 |
| porter1 | jefimenko, isn;t it logging it? | 02:00 |
| ubutom | brwarner, then do a sudo dhclient again, then it might work, no guarantee though :) | 02:00 |
| ubutom | brwarner, if it doesn't work you'll have to manually set a static ip again | 02:01 |
| cjae | How come there is no dillo in repos? | 02:01 |
| brwarner | ubutom, so all the file should say is auto eth0? | 02:01 |
| brwarner | ubutom, besides the auto lo\iface lo inet loopback at the top | 02:01 |
| ubutom | rwa | 02:01 |
| ubutom | brwarner, nope, wait, i'll rephrase | 02:02 |
| ubutom | iface eth0 inet dhcp (newline)auto eth0 | 02:02 |
| ubutom | without the (newline) ;) | 02:02 |

| alexbobP | Blue1: oh hey, you were right, never mind | 02:06 |
| ubutom | brwarner, could be it doesnt work because your router doesnt have dhcp-service started | 02:06 |
| brwarner | ubutom, did not work but now trying with ethernet cable in other adapter | 02:06 |
| eryc | ActionParsnip: thanks i downloaded and xfer'd the compat-wireless tarball | 02:06 |
| alexbobP | Blue1: that wasn't the wifi password at all and the router doesn't let me set it, it was still using the previous password | 02:06 |

| eryc | I don't have /prov/config.gz and I tried "make oldconfig" to no avail | 02:07 |
| ubutom | okay brwarner, do a cat /etc/resolv.conf | 02:07 |

| wildbat | pr0xy, sdd is your external i believes 40GB HDD correct? | 02:08 |
| brwarner | ubutom, file does nto exist? is it resolve.conf | 02:08 |
| xangua | pakoz: empathy | 02:08 |
| box | also, it looks like i get an immediate disconnect of tje usb device | 02:08 |
| pakoz | thank you. | 02:08 |
| pr0xy | yep. the internals, I cant mess with because this isn't my PC. | 02:09 |
| ubutom | brwarner, nah, /etc/resolv.conf is right | 02:09 |
| edbian | brwarner, /etc/resolv.conf (not a typo, there is no e) | 02:09 |
| brwarner | ubutom, oh ok I read it wrong yeah I got it - it says | 02:10 |
| Knick-RDP | Guys - earlier today i removed 3 .deb files concerning 'snort | 02:10 |

| joshdreamland | I got World of Warcraft running, but the mouse seems off by roughly 24 pixels vertically. For instance, if a login button is at y position 500, I need to click after 524. | 02:10 |
| Knick-RDP | argh enter too early | 02:10 |
| brwarner | nameserver 64.71.255.198 | 02:10 |
| joshdreamland | Is this a common problem? | 02:10 |
| brwarner | ubutom, then that's it | 02:10 |
| Knick-RDP | Guys - earlier today i removed 3 .deb files concerning 'snort' from /var/cache/apt/archives and now every time i try apt-get update or remove i get this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/445829/ | 02:10 |
| brwarner | ubutom, just those two lines | 02:10 |
| ubutom | brwarner, ok, do you know the ip of your router? | 02:11 |
| brwarner | ubutom, external or internal (they are 173.32.13.23 and 192.168.0.1 respectivly) | 02:11 |
| edbian | Knick-RDP, You should manually move things from /var/cache/apt ;) | 02:11 |
| ubutom | brwarner, if so, put it in as nameserver | 02:11 |
| edbian | Knick-RDP, Try: sudo aptitude install -f which tries to fix broken packages | 02:11 |
| ubutom | 192.168.0.1 should be fine | 02:11 |
| brwarner | unutom, which one? | 02:11 |
| pr0xy | wildbat, what do I do next? | 02:11 |
| Knick-RDP | shouldn't, edbian? - if so, i think i know that now heh - questio is how to fix | 02:11 |
| brwarner | ubutom, k | 02:11 |
| edbian | Knick-RDP, sudo aptitude install -f | 02:12 |
| porter1 | jefimenko, you could as a hack redirect any output to /dev/stdout | 02:12 |
| wildbat | pr0xy, follow the instruction there? just key in mind that /dev/sdd is your drive | 02:12 |
| Knick-RDP | trying now edbian - though its fetching linux-headers now | 02:12 |
| Knick-RDP | kernel updates i assume | 02:12 |
| Knick-RDP | while doing that i get those errors again | 02:12 |
| porter1 | jefimenko, otherwise I'm not sure why the echos aren't working | 02:13 |
| edbian | Knick-RDP, It didn't fix it? | 02:13 |
| Knick-RDP | i think something in dpkg might be messed up since i did that | 02:13 |
| brwarner | ubutom, ok now this vi thing isn't letting me type, only delete | 02:13 |
| lost_as_blind_du | bye all | 02:13 |
| edbian | Knick-RDP, sudo apt-get purge snort ? | 02:13 |
| brwarner | ubutom, can't seem to get past current end of file | 02:13 |
| Knick-RDP | let me try that when it finishes, edbian | 02:13 |
| edbian | Knick-RDP, k | 02:13 |
| Knick-RDP | Package snort is not installed, so not removed | 02:13 |
| jefimenko | porter1: also, a lot of traditional initscripts define functions and call them from the start, stop, and restart commands | 02:13 |
| ubutom | brwarner, sorry, no vi experience | 02:13 |
| jefimenko | porter1: i can't find out how to do this here | 02:13 |
| darkangel | hey question for everyone, how is the new ubuntu 10.04 running??? is it still glitchy where i would need to work through them or is it fixed for the most part | 02:13 |
| Knick-RDP | not fixed - i even tried aptitude reinstall dpkg.. | 02:14 |
| brwarner | ubutom, got it ok I can write now | 02:14 |
| edbian | Knick-RDP, This is very odd. I'm not sure how to fix the cache at this point... | 02:14 |
| brwarner | ubutom, ok done I wrote the line | 02:14 |
| pr0xy | why can't I enable the IRC activity beep, even though I have Flash? | 02:14 |
| brwarner | ubutom, now what should I try | 02:15 |
| ubutom | brwarner, saved it? | 02:15 |
| brwarner | ubutom, yup | 02:15 |
| phrostbite | I installed digikam and it is not showing up anywhere in my application list. Is there a specific reason why? | 02:15 |
| edbian | Knick-RDP, sudo apt-get clean | 02:15 |
| edbian | Knick-RDP, ?? | 02:15 |
| ubutom | brwarner, fine, now try a sudo ifdown eth0 | 02:15 |
| Knick-RDP | done several times | 02:15 |
| ubutom | brwarner, and then sudo ifup eth0 | 02:15 |
| ubutom | and then you could try to ping something | 02:15 |
| porter1 | jefimenko, upstart I believe assumes the process you define under exec is the one you want to start stop and restart, and handles doing that for you. if there's more you want to do before any of those happen, you just use pre-start post-start, pre-stop, post-stop, etc | 02:16 |
| brwarner | unutom, ok after ifup its running the dhcodiscover process, lets see if it works or not | 02:16 |
| Knick-RDP | weird thing is though edbian that at this point no .deb files are there anymore | 02:16 |
| Knick-RDP | while earlier it was a huge list | 02:16 |

| ubutom | brwarner, you could also try to delete that search entry you created if it doesn't work, dunno if that could mess something up | 02:17 |
| ubutom | ok brwarner, then we'll have to set up a static ip again... joy ;) | 02:17 |
| jefimenko | porter1: yes, but there are cases where your process takes custom configuration options on the command line | 02:17 |
| ActionParsnip | Knick-RDP: you can use: sudo apt-get autoclean and it will clean itself | 02:18 |
| edbian | Knick-RDP, Yeah, it only puts stuff in there temporarily. Until you reset, apt-get clean also clears them out. There must be some other database that is convinced they should be there... | 02:18 |
| porter1 | jefimenko, from the start, stop, and restart commands? | 02:18 |
| darkangel | how is the new ubuntu 10.04 running??? | 02:18 |
| jefimenko | porter1: i'm trying to find out how to pass these options around | 02:18 |
| edbian | ActionParsnip, He manually removed a file from /var/cache/apt... | 02:18 |
| ubutom | brwarner, do you have one of those windows-boxes in reach? | 02:18 |
| ActionParsnip | edbian: yes but autoclean means they will never mount up again | 02:18 |
| Knick-RDP | i removed 3 .deb files, ActionParsnip lol | 02:18 |
| eryc | ah i guess my kernel install is incomplete. | 02:18 |
| Knick-RDP | i did that too | 02:18 |
| ActionParsnip | darkangel: not bad, 10.10 isnt too bad either | 02:19 |
| ubutom | brwarner, ipconfig will tell you their ip and then we can set something fitting | 02:19 |
| brwarner | ubutom, ok trying it again | 02:19 |
| jefimenko | porter1: thanks for the help, but i've gotta go now | 02:19 |
| jefimenko | porter1: i'll take a look more later | 02:19 |
| edbian | ActionParsnip, Knick-RDP o, yeah. But now apt is convinced those .deb files are "missing" | 02:19 |
| brwarner | ubutom, yes I have a windows laptop, that's what im talking on | 02:19 |
| porter1 | jefimenko, ok, you might check the mailing list for upstart, where the experts are | 02:19 |
| McNever | anybody out there familiar with sipie? | 02:19 |
| ubutom | good brwarner , do an ipconfig on that | 02:19 |
| Knick-RDP | though, ActionParsnip - everytime now i try to apt-get install or remove and it gets to dpkg - i get those 3 warnings, the install works though - no problems but the warnings are thill there | 02:19 |

| ActionParsnip | phrostbite: if you launch it from alt+f2 does it run? | 02:22 |
| brwarner | ubutom, ok I stopped after that cause I didnt see anything saying broadcast | 02:22 |
| Knick-RDP | ActionParsnip; it tries to install a lot of things, should i do it? | 02:22 |
| ubutom | ok, subnet mask is it | 02:22 |
| ubutom | is usually also broadcast | 02:22 |
| phrostbite | @actionparsnip not that I am seeing | 02:22 |
| phrostbite | Wait yes it does launch | 02:23 |
| ActionParsnip | phrostbite: then use alacarte to make your own entry and log a bug. It should make an entry | 02:23 |
| ubutom | brwarner, ip of your router was again? | 02:23 |
| ubutom | I mean internal | 02:23 |
| brwarner | ubutom, actually I just had an idea, maybe I should try plugging the main ethernet cable (the one that goes into the router) into the linux box to see if that ethernet port works at all | 02:23 |
| darkangel | could i run a 32 bit version of lucid lynx on a amd64 processor or do i have to run the 64 bit verson | 02:23 |

| tyler_d|werkin | how do I get grub to show at boot using ubuntu 10.04? | 02:24 |
| brwarner | ubutom, ok I did (and now I think i've finally figured out this vi thing) | 02:25 |
| darkangel | yeah i knew i could do that but its been since hardy heron came out that ive avidly been able to work on my computers | 02:25 |
| tyler_d|werkin | alternately is there an gui tool to test my ram? | 02:25 |
| pr0xy | brb | 02:25 |
| Sc00t3r | tyler_d|werkin, if you're using Ubuntu 10.04, it should have GRUB being used to boot anything at the beginning. | 02:25 |

| Sc00t3r | edlik, unless the files are encrypted, you should be able to do it through the LIVE CD anyways. | 02:25 |

| ubutom | ok, now we'll put a static ip in again | 02:26 |

| Sc00t3r | tyler_d|werkin, Grub will refuse to show itself unless it needs you to choose from more than one operating system. | 02:26 |
| Frigga_Frag | I don't have that option | 02:26 |
| ActionParsnip | darkangel: i'd go 64bit just because I could | 02:26 |
| Sc00t3r | tyler_d|werkin, Therefore, unless you have more than operating system, you don't need it. | 02:27 |
| brwarner | ubutom ok | 02:27 |

| pr0xy | m bak | 02:28 |
| Sc00t3r | tyler_d|werkin, Oh! You want to do a memtest. I can't remember the command during boot, but I'm sure that pressing one of the F keys during boot will show GRUB. Give me a second. | 02:28 |

| brwarner | ubutom, do we still need the auto eth0 line? because it was removed | 02:30 |
| wildbat | pr0xy, you don't mount the whole drive you mount the partition | 02:30 |
| Sc00t3r | Frigga_Frag, Should be under the 'Preferences' or 'System' menu in the settings. | 02:30 |
| b12k | is there an option to run a process background without using a terminal ? | 02:30 |
| Knick-RDP | ActionParsnip; snort isnt even installed anymore - these errors started occuring after i removed 3 .deb files from /var/cache/apt/archives/ after having snort installed and removed from apt-get.. | 02:30 |
| Frigga_Frag | I checked, it's not there. | 02:30 |
| ubutom | brwarner, no, i think not, better remove it | 02:30 |
| pr0xy | how? | 02:30 |
| wildbat | pr0xy, sdd1 | 02:30 |

| ubutom | hhm, well, bwarner, try rebooting, maybe it will work then :) | 02:32 |
| ActionParsnip | Knick-RDP: all i can suggest is reinstall the snort packages named, then remove | 02:32 |

| edbian | joshdreamland, You can't run javascript without a browser as far as I know | 02:36 |

| edbian | Knick-RDP, If you can re-create the files and put them back I bet that will fix it. | 02:37 |
| dwieberd | Jordan_U. Right. The window will not close. I might expect something like this on windoze. Surprised to see it on Linux. | 02:37 |

| eryc | booted old kernel, followed that guide, success. | 02:38 |
| ubutom | brwarner, the auto eth0 has to be below the address part | 02:38 |
| dwieberd | edbian, OK, that killed it. Now if I start Firefox it's gonna come back, i know it. How do i prevent that? | 02:39 |
| ubutom | brwarner, i think we removed it | 02:39 |
| edbian | dwieberd, no idea. Try it though and make sure you're right. | 02:39 |
| eryc | any recommendations on upgrading Ubuntu 6.10? | 02:39 |
| edbian | dwieberd, We can always kill it again | 02:39 |
| brwarner | ubutom, ok ill try | 02:39 |
| edbian | eryc, 6.10 is from october of 2006... ? | 02:39 |
| Sc00t3r | eryc, If I recall correctly, you can't upgrade that version of Ubuntu without a full reinstall of the OS? | 02:40 |
| ArielMT | dwieberd: it should ask if you want to restore the last session. answer no | 02:40 |
| eryc | Sc00t3r: yea thats what i found out last time i tried.. | 02:40 |
| eryc | edbian: most likely | 02:40 |
| Sc00t3r | eryc, So honestly, I'm pretty sure you can't do much without doing a reinstall to 10.04 or 9.11.. | 02:40 |
| edbian | dwieberd, def. answer no to that haha | 02:40 |
| ActionParsnip | Knick-RDP: make sure you backup the files before you play | 02:40 |
| acerimmer_ | eryc: clean install | 02:40 |
| Sc00t3r | eryc, 10.04 is a great distribution. Are you using a lower-end computer? | 02:40 |
| eryc | Will the installer try to format or can i skip and overwrite? | 02:40 |
| edbian | eryc, most likely? It def is. That's how the version numbers work. If you really are running 6.10 you need to clean install 8.04 or newer | 02:40 |
| brwarner | ubutom, still no luck - I tried putting it after address 192.168.0.5 and it said syntax error in ifdown so I tried again at the endo fthe file but now back to "not configured" | 02:40 |

| Sc00t3r | eryc, Ubuntu is one of the greatest distributions of Linux out there. As long as you pay attention to the upgrades, you'll never run into this situation again. | 02:44 |

| edbian | Sc00t3r, :) | 02:45 |

| Sc00t3r | eryc, Hence why they would remove them. Just taking up space, IMO. | 02:46 |

| ubutom | bwarner, you pinged the router now? | 02:48 |
| === CAPS is now known as CAPSLOCK | ||
| porter1 | eryc, you can do upgrades off of old isos until you get back up-to-date if you like | 02:48 |
| CAPSLOCK | D'aw, CAPSLOCK is taken as a nickname. ;-; | 02:48 |
| brwarner | ubutom, yes 192.168.0.1 | 02:48 |
| CAPSLOCK | Oh, wait, I can still use it. | 02:48 |
| Dr_Willis | Piccolo48: install the dependencies it needs. or give us a more specific error message. You could use 'gksudo gdebi whatever.deb' and it should install needed extra packages | 02:48 |
| ActionParsnip | Piccolo48: sudo apt-get -f install | 02:48 |
| edbian | ActionParsnip, CAPSLOCK perhaps he just held shift down? | 02:48 |
| eryc | porter1: hm. thanks! | 02:49 |
| eryc | porter1: thats a great idea | 02:49 |
| CAPSLOCK | edbian, Oh I'm sure, I just felt like saying that. ;3 | 02:49 |
| edbian | tomas-90, Do you have a question? I think we're all sorry for making fun. | 02:49 |
| porter1 | eryc, but usually everyone just backs-up and reinstalls, because upgrade scripts aren't perfect | 02:49 |
| Piccolo48 | Alright, thanks. Merely knowing a dependancy is something that can be installed is good advice | 02:49 |
| ActionParsnip | edbian: perhaps ;) | 02:49 |
| eryc | porter1: yea *worries* lol | 02:49 |
| eryc | anyway thanks for the lively conversation. have a good evening guys :) | 02:49 |
| porter1 | eryc, but yeah just get aflash drive and format as many times as you need to to get back up to date :P | 02:50 |
| CAPSLOCK | Later, Eryc. | 02:50 |
| Piccolo48 | I know this isnt an ubuntu question but....my mouse wont work in windows (although it does in ubuntu). any reason why? | 02:50 |
| eryc | porter1: lol :D | 02:50 |
| ActionParsnip | !windows | Piccolo48 | 02:50 |
| ubottu | Piccolo48: For discussion on Microsoft software, or help with same, please visit ##windows. See http://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bug/1 http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm and /msg ubottu equivalents | 02:50 |
| CAPSLOCK | Install the drivers for the mouse, perhaps? Is it wireless, and are you using Windows XP? | 02:50 |
| CAPSLOCK | Piccolo48, Let me guess, you are using a laptop? | 02:50 |
| jdsbluedevl | Hi, I'm having a problem trying to established a shared Internet connection between my Ubuntu box and my Roku set-top box. Much of my problems are somewhat detailed in the forum link at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=9422378 . Can anyone help me? | 02:50 |
| ubutom | brwarner, ok, the line with auto has to go, i used a bad example, take a look at this site for exapmle | 02:50 |
| Piccolo48 | Yup | 02:50 |
| ubutom | brwarner, http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/setting-up-an-network-interfaces-file/ | 02:50 |
| tomas-90 | i have a problem, afer installing ubuntu 10.04, and after the reboot, it says error: out of disk grub rescue> what should i do??? | 02:50 |
| Alloeishus | when burning an ISO image that needs to be extracted I burn as img in brasero, correct? | 02:51 |
| Piccolo48 | I am using a laptop | 02:51 |
| CAPSLOCK | Piccolo48, Chances are the laptop is disabling the mouse because it has a pad. I'm not sure, but enabling the mouse might do the trick. I'm not really sure, though. | 02:51 |
| CAPSLOCK | Piccolo48, Is the mouse USB? | 02:51 |
| porter1 | Alloeishus, that's on method, yes | 02:51 |
| porter1 | one* | 02:51 |
| tomas-90 | i have a problem, afer installing ubuntu 10.04, and after the reboot, it says error: out of disk grub rescue> what should i do??? | 02:51 |
| Alloeishus | porter1, awesome | 02:51 |
| tomas-90 | please someone | 02:52 |
| CAPSLOCK | Alright guys. I'd stick around but I'm going to reinstall windows. Check for some more files that I want off the HDD before I do a nice wiping.. Ttyl! | 02:52 |
| Piccolo48 | I'm not sure, and it would be diifficult to find out without use of said mouse. I am on windows now, but I can't get ubuntu internet working until I install said dependencies we talked about earlier | 02:52 |
| Alloeishus | porter1, burning an OS IMG file this way would also work yes? | 02:52 |
| Piccolo48 | Its those laptop mouses you use with your finger | 02:52 |
| Alloeishus | I use my finger :) | 02:52 |
| porter1 | Alloeishus, assuming the OS doesn't have a dumb copy-protection scheme in place that requires the physical disk, then yes | 02:53 |
| Piccolo48 | thats fine, I'll just try to use the internet with the keyboard. I think it can be done | 02:53 |
| brwarner | ubutom, removed it - restarted - ifdown ifup then ping and still unreachable | 02:53 |
| edbian | Piccolo48, Ask in #windows ;) | 02:53 |
| porter1 | Alloeishus, you'll want to chack the hashes of the file with ones given on the website (if they're a distro anyway) | 02:53 |
| ubutom | brwarner, can you describe your network setup again? | 02:53 |
| Alloeishus | porter1, its not a distro but the hash checks out | 02:53 |
| tomas-90 | i have a problem, afer installing ubuntu 10.04, and after the reboot, it says error: out of disk grub rescue> what should i do??? | 02:53 |
| porter1 | Alloeishus, ok, good | 02:54 |
| R3cur51v3 | Piccolo48, use appropriate terminology. See this site for suggestions: http://xkcd.com/243/ | 02:54 |
| Alloeishus | porter1, woot | 02:54 |
| Piccolo48 | sorry if I broke a windows taboo, but the reason I asked it here is because this was the only chatroom I could access with my keyboard only | 02:54 |
| porter1 | tomas-90, you'll need to probably reinstall grub | 02:54 |
| brwarner | ubutom, cable wire -> rogers modem -> wireless router -> windows laptops/PCs | 02:54 |
| TMK | Does anybody have a problem burning CD's in rhythmbox on Lucid? It seems that there's something not right between rhythmbox and brasero. | 02:54 |

| dwieberd | ArieIMT: i just installed NoScript on this log. Thanks for the suggestion. | 02:55 |

| brwarner | ubutom, sorry but I have to give up on this for now - unfortunatly there are other things I need to do before tomorrow | 02:56 |
| ArielMT | dwieberd: don't take this the wrong way, but that's the strangest misspelling of my name i've seen yet. | 02:56 |
| ubutom | brwarner, that's ok, but maybe the router needs some configuring | 02:56 |
| dwieberd | Sorry! | 02:56 |
| ubutom | brwarner, could be that it has different settings for the lan interface than for the wireless | 02:56 |

| porter1 | Alloeishus, because hardware manufacturers are liars :) | 02:57 |

| brwarner | ubutom, one day I will figure it out. But once again thanks for all the time and effort | 02:57 |
| porter1 | tomas-90, then get your flash drive with ubuntu on it and boot from it | 02:57 |
| Alloeishus | porter1, I want a refund. I tried to get one from MS but they wouldnt let me. | 02:57 |

| needhelp1 | is it possible that i can expand my partition ? im in disk utility but im a little lost | 03:02 |
| porter1 | needhelp1, if you're using the partition while you're in Ubuntu, you'll need to use a liveCD to change the partition while it's not mounted | 03:02 |
| ubutom | needhelp1, making it bigger is easy, making it smaller is kinda tricky :) you have to have unpartitionend space or a partition you deleted adjacent though | 03:02 |

| Zeu5 | R3cur51v3: is there a way for me not to have to continuously remount the drive? | 03:04 |

| jdsbluedevl | wise_crypt: but for your convenience, http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/445849/ | 03:09 |
| R3cur51v3 | Zeu5, that means it will try to mount the drive to / | 03:09 |
| Zeu5 | R3cur51v3: what should it be? | 03:09 |
| edbian | Zeu5, You make a folder to mount it in. That's the mount point. Something in /mnt is appropriate. /mnt/windows or something sim | 03:09 |
| wise_crypt | jdsbluedevl: iptables -L | 03:09 |
| R3cur51v3 | i.e. the drive will replace your entire filesystem | 03:09 |
| thune3 | Zeu5: your mountpoint is wrong, when you mount normally, what is the mountpoint? | 03:09 |
| R3cur51v3 | Zeu5, type sudo mkdir /mnt/windows | 03:10 |
| wise_crypt | jdsbluedevl: pastebin it | 03:10 |
| R3cur51v3 | Zeu5, and then make the mountpoint /mnt/windows | 03:10 |
| Zeu5 | thune3, R3cur51v3 , edbian: i think i know where i usually mount it in | 03:10 |
| R3cur51v3 | Zeu5, OK, use that then | 03:10 |

| R3cur51v3 | Zeu5, use that then | 03:11 |
| Zeu5 | thune3, R3cur51v3 , edbian: so the mount point is /media/ correct? | 03:11 |
| Zeu5 | thune3, R3cur51v3 , edbian: so the mount point is /media/ or just /media ? | 03:11 |
| R3cur51v3 | No, it is that entire thing | 03:11 |
| jericom | Hello is there a way to test a laptop battery? | 03:11 |
| R3cur51v3 | Say ?? | 03:11 |
| R3cur51v3 | /media/32D4C784D4C748B5 | 03:11 |
| R3cur51v3 | Oh | 03:11 |
| edbian | Zeu5, Yeah, gnome auto creates things in /media for mounting. It is an ok to put it in their but generally not great because you might create a folder than conflicts with what gnome tries to do. | 03:11 |
| edbian | Zeu5, Manual mounting should be done in folders in /mnt | 03:12 |
| Zeu5 | thune3, R3cur51v3 , edbian: i see. thanks . sorry if i messaged all 3 of u. | 03:12 |
| edbian | Zeu5, No worries! :) | 03:12 |
| R3cur51v3 | Zeu5, once you've done that, go into a terminal and type cd; cd .config/transmission/resume | 03:12 |

| wise_crypt | !firewall | jdsbluedevl | 03:16 |
| ubottu | jdsbluedevl: Ubuntu, like any other Linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW), or 'iptables' (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo). GUI frontends such as Firestarter/Gufw (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE) also exist. | 03:16 |
| nuboon2age | question to anyone: is there someplace where these logs get posted on the web, so we can search through them for answers? | 03:17 |

| jdsbluedevl | wise_crypt: does that tell me how to reset iptables to installation default? | 03:17 |
| R3cur51v3 | Zeu5, I'm assuming this is your Windows partition? | 03:17 |
| nuboon2age | thanks ubottu! | 03:17 |
| Exxon | yeah! thanks | 03:17 |
| ActionParsnip | !controls | Gryllida | 03:17 |
| ubottu | Gryllida: In Lucid, the minimize, maximize, and close buttons have been moved to the left side. For more information, please see http://alturl.com/b6ja | To move them back to the right-hand side, see http://alturl.com/x5d6 | 03:17 |
| wise_crypt | jdsbluedevl: just flush the iptables you good to go | 03:18 |
| Zeu5 | thune3, R3cur51v3 , edbian: yes i understand i need to create /mnt/datadrive. my question is where is this /mnt/datadrive should be? its a d drive in my windows | 03:18 |
| ActionParsnip | Gryllida: there are millions of guides for this, did yo not websearch any? | 03:18 |
| Gryllida | ActionParsnip: Thank you. | 03:18 |
| Euthanatos | ActionParsnip, ext2 is bootable? | 03:18 |
| R3cur51v3 | Zeu5, also, pass needs to be 0 or 2, read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab | 03:18 |
| ActionParsnip | Euthanatos: sure is | 03:18 |
| Gryllida | ActionParsnip: IDK, they look way too technical | 03:18 |
| R3cur51v3 | Zeu5, /mnt/datadrive is an absolute pathname. It is a specific place on your filesystem | 03:18 |
| wise_crypt | jdsbluedevl: sudo iptables --flush | 03:18 |
| R3cur51v3 | It's not "in" any other foldre | 03:18 |
| Zeu5 | thune3, R3cur51v3 , edbian: sorry i dont quite understand the term partition, but if you are saying that it is a logical drive created when i installed windows, then yes | 03:18 |
| Euthanatos | ActionParsnip, so what's the best way to apply ext2 format to a partition table? | 03:19 |
| jdsbluedevl | wise_crypt: then restart network-manager? | 03:19 |
| Zeu5 | thune3, R3cur51v3 , edbian: oh absolutepath. okie i got it | 03:19 |
| Gryllida | ActionParsnip, yay, it worked! Thank a lot. | 03:19 |
| ActionParsnip | Euthanatos: use gparted | 03:19 |
| Jordan_U | Euthanatos: I think you are confused. How did you try to make it bootable? What happens when you try to boot from it? | 03:19 |
| jdsbluedevl | wise_crypt: nvm, that didn't work | 03:19 |
| ActionParsnip | Gryllida: they all say the same thing basically, its not technical at all.. | 03:19 |
| jdsbluedevl | wise_crypt: trying a reboot first | 03:19 |
| R3cur51v3 | Zeu5, your harddrive consists of several partitions, which are blocks that the harddrive is divided into. You'll typically have one that you installed Windows on, one for Linux, and one for Linux swap. | 03:19 |
| Euthanatos | I am indeed confused. The system says it is not a bootable device | 03:20 |
| edlik1 | how do I force ubuntu live cd to see my usb hard drive? | 03:20 |
| Gryllida | ActionParsnip: I'd never guess that that thing would be the right one to run | 03:20 |
| Jordan_U | Euthanatos: What is "the system"? | 03:20 |

| nuboon2age | Euthanatos: I use MultiBoot (liveusb.info) to format and then allow me to have multiple isos on the USB. liveusb | 03:20 |
| ActionParsnip | Euthanatos: you havent marked it as bootable, you will also need to install a boot loader to it | 03:20 |
| Euthanatos | Jordan_U, Pheonix BIos | 03:20 |
| R3cur51v3 | Zeu5, once you have successfully mounted the drive, you can go into that folder. It will contain the contents of the Windows drive. | 03:20 |
| pr0xy | wildbat, it works! | 03:20 |
| hiexpo | edlik, you need to go into bios and change boot order | 03:21 |
| pr0xy | thank you, thank you, thank you! | 03:21 |
| Euthanatos | ActionParsnip, i can't see what would have changed it from being marked bootable | 03:21 |
| R3cur51v3 | Zeu5, I don't think the UUID in the fdisk tab is right | 03:21 |
| Zeu5 | thune3, R3cur51v3 , edbian: do i have to restart my computer? because right now the d drive is mounted and i think its using the wrong mount point. and i cannot unmount it.. saying something abt me not being root | 03:21 |
| R3cur51v3 | type sudo blkdisk into the Terminal | 03:21 |
| Line_ | does anyone know how to redirect a whole port (i.e. 6667) to a subdomain ( port 80)? | 03:21 |
| wildbat | pr0xy, you're welcome ^^ | 03:21 |
| Jordan_U | pr0xy: It's likely that it will fail again some timme in the future (the cause of the original problem is most likely a BIOS bug, which is still there) | 03:21 |
| ActionParsnip | Euthanatos: not sure, user interaction is a usual culprit :) | 03:22 |
| Zeu5 | thune3, R3cur51v3 , edbian: yes its correct. i used sudo blkdisk as indicated by the documentation | 03:22 |
| nuboon2age | Euthanatos: I use MultiBoot (http://liveusb.info) uses parted (underneath the covers -- just like gparted does) to do its partitioning | 03:22 |
| Zeu5 | thune3, R3cur51v3 , edbian: do i have to restart my computer? because right now the d drive is mounted and i think its using the wrong mount point. and i cannot unmount it.. saying something abt me not being root | 03:22 |
| Euthanatos | ActionParsnip, i don't doubt that =P | 03:22 |
| edlik1 | hiexpo: I changed boot order, I am running live usb (sorry, i said cd earlier). I boot fine, but I cant see my usb mass storage device | 03:22 |
| ActionParsnip | Line_: you'll need to setup some sort of masquerading, the !ics factoid may help there | 03:22 |
| Gryllida | How do I turn the cleartype off here? | 03:22 |
| pr0xy | Jordan_U, are you sure it wasn't just that I hadn't installed GRUB? | 03:23 |

| ubottu | If you want to share the internet connection of your ubuntu machine with other machines in the network see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetConnectionSharing - You may also use !firestarter: http://www.fs-security.com/docs/connection-sharing.php | 03:23 |
| Zeu5 | R3cur51v3: sorry for the extra message, i dont want to keep spamming edebian and thune3 | 03:23 |
| R3cur51v3 | Zeu5, "you are not root" means that you do not have sufficient privileges. You can overcome this by prefacing the command with "sudo". | 03:23 |
| jdsbluedevl | wise_crypt: ok, now the connection is under the proper eth0 (Accton). However, there are no connections under eth2 (Linksys). | 03:23 |
| R3cur51v3 | Zeu5, be careful what you do with sudo, though | 03:23 |
| ksesc | jericom, you might try powertop | 03:23 |
| Zeu5 | R3cur51v3: i think i go restart my computer. to check if the fstab works. be back in 3 | 03:24 |
| R3cur51v3 | You can easily trash your Linux install if you are not careful | 03:24 |
| R3cur51v3 | Zeu5, OK | 03:24 |
| Jordan_U | ActionParsnip: Does multiboot detect isos at boot (so that you can just add new iso file and it will be found at boot)? | 03:24 |
| Alloeishus | how to I partition within ubuntu GUI? | 03:24 |
| Alloeishus | *create a new partition | 03:24 |
| ActionParsnip | Jordan_U: you will need to add an entry in your lilo / grub2 config | 03:25 |
| braxton | Alloeishus, Try getting GParted. | 03:25 |
| Alloeishus | Needs to be resized and a new one made?? am I stating this correctly? | 03:25 |
| braxton | Alloeishus, yes. Do you speak a different language? | 03:25 |
| Alloeishus | yes | 03:25 |
| braxton | Parles-tu francais? | 03:26 |
| Alloeishus | Gnome partition = gparted? no not french | 03:26 |
| jdsbluedevl | wise_crypt: ok, found out how to get entry back into the nm-applet list (I removed the MAC address to which the device was locked). However, it's still under eth0. How do I get my shared connection under eth2? | 03:26 |
| Gryllida | Cleartype as in the fonts that are obscure, they're not clear - how do I turn it off? | 03:26 |
| braxton | Oh. I think it works in gnome, yeah. | 03:26 |
| braxton | Alloeishus, type this in the terminal. | 03:26 |
| braxton | sudo apt-get install gparted | 03:26 |
| braxton | Then just run it from System>Administration. | 03:27 |
| braxton | Au revoir, je dois aller. | 03:27 |
| pr0xy | Jordan_U, wasn't my issue because I hadn't installed GRUB, not a BIOS issue? The PC i'm using is a dell dimension 5100. (not mine, don't laugh) It's running the most recent BIOS. (A03) | 03:27 |
| jdsbluedevl | wise_crypt: are you still there? | 03:28 |
| wise_crypt | jdsbluedevl: yup | 03:28 |
| Zeu5 | R3cur51v3: major problem. when i restartted, i had a message error mounting /mnt/datadrive | 03:28 |
| Zeu5 | R3cur51v3: i had to skip mounting | 03:29 |
| Jordan_U | pr0xy: Sorry, I thought you were the person with the "out of disk" error. | 03:29 |
| pr0xy | nope. | 03:29 |
| jdsbluedevl | wise_crypt: so you saw that I was able to switch the cards to their correct designations, but I still can't get a connection under eth2, correct? | 03:29 |
| R3cur51v3 | Zeu5, did you change the pass field? | 03:29 |

| R3cur51v3 | Zeu5, also run sudo blkid again and make sure the uuid is right | 03:30 |
| Alloeishus | braxton will this take a while on a 14.4 connection? | 03:30 |
| rafaelsoaresbr | what's the recommended way to upgrade from 9.10 to 10.04? | 03:30 |
| Zeu5 | R3cur51v3: oh u wanted me to change it to 0 or 2 right? | 03:30 |
| jdsbluedevl | wise_crypt: what use is that if I have no entries under eth2? | 03:30 |
| pr0xy | thx. How can I install PlaneShift? | 03:30 |
| R3cur51v3 | I'm fairly certain that UUID's have to be longer | 03:30 |
| ActionParsnip | !upgrade | rafaelsoaresbr | 03:30 |

| techteen | rafaelsoaresbr: use the Update Manager and follow the link if you don't wish to reinstall | 03:31 |
| R3cur51v3 | Zeu5, /etc/fstab is being saved properly, right? You know you have to be root to edit it? | 03:31 |
| Blue1 | pr0xy: rtfm? | 03:31 |
| Jordan_U | !rtfm | Blue1 | 03:31 |
| ubottu | Blue1: Acronyms or statements like noob, jfgi, stfu, or rtfm are not welcome in this channel. Period. | 03:31 |
| R3cur51v3 | Zeu5, i.e. you have to type sudo $EDITORCOMMAND /etc/fstab in order to edit it | 03:31 |
| wise_crypt | jdsbluedevl : make one sudo ifconfig eth2 some.ip.your/subnet | 03:31 |
| jdsbluedevl | wise_crypt: great. Now eth2 is called eth3, and firestarter is telling me that "The device eth3 is not ready" | 03:31 |
| Zeu5 | R3cur51v3: please check http://paste.ubuntu.com/445855/ | 03:31 |
| pr0xy | >:( | 03:31 |
| jdsbluedevl | wise_crypt: what do you mean some ip? | 03:31 |
| R3cur51v3 | Why is telling someone to read the fine manual not acceptable? | 03:32 |
| Zeu5 | R3cur51v3: i used sudo gedit /etc/fstab | 03:32 |
| rafaelsoaresbr | techteen, ActionParsnip: is it better to do a fresh install? thanks | 03:32 |
| R3cur51v3 | Zeu5, ok that's good | 03:32 |
| wise_crypt | jdsbluedevl : 192.xxxx.xxx.xxx | 03:32 |
| Blue1 | R3cur51v3: dunno - I've never heard of planeshift - so...that seemed logical. | 03:32 |
| Zeu5 | R3cur51v3: can u check my sudo blkid output? http://paste.ubuntu.com/445855/ | 03:32 |
| techteen | rafaelsoaresbr: it's always best to wipe the drive and start clean. Old libraries don't get confused with new ones. | 03:32 |
| R3cur51v3 | Zeu5, yeah I read it | 03:32 |
| ActionParsnip | jdsbluedevl: http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/dapper/cs/man8/ifrename.8.html | 03:32 |
| Gryllida | What can I use instead/along with openoffice with same functionality? KOffice? Abiword? Any more suggestions what to try? | 03:33 |
| ActionParsnip | rafaelsoaresbr: both methods have pros and cons | 03:33 |
| R3cur51v3 | Zeu5, OK I guess devices can have UUID's likethat | 03:33 |
| R3cur51v3 | like that | 03:33 |
| Zeu5 | R3cur51v3: so now i have to change my pass to 0 or 2 | 03:33 |
| Blue1 | Zeu5: looks pretty normal assume you are running windows | 03:33 |
| Zeu5 | R3cur51v3: which one is best? | 03:33 |
| Alloeishus | ok I have gparted open but it wont let me partition my HDD.. I think because im using it or something. any 'SIMPLE' online website that can explain? | 03:33 |
| Blue1 | Zeu5: i.e. dual boot situation | 03:33 |
| wise_crypt | jdsbluedevl : you mentioned that you'r upgrading its from 9.10 to 10.04 right ? | 03:33 |
| techteen | Gryllida: The only similar product is Koffice | 03:33 |
| acerimmer_ | !best|zeu5 | 03:33 |
| ubottu | zeu5: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 03:33 |
| ActionParsnip | Gryllida: abiword if all you need is a word processor. Will save yo lots of space. You can also install gnumric for spreadsheet | 03:33 |
| jdsbluedevl | wise_crypt: so, ifrename -c eth3 eth2? | 03:33 |
| jdsbluedevl | wise_crypt: no, I've already upgraded | 03:33 |
| ActionParsnip | *gnumeric | 03:33 |
| * Blue1 hearts abiword! | 03:34 | |
| wise_crypt | jdsbluedevl : from what version to what version | 03:34 |
| R3cur51v3 | Zeu5, read that page I told you | 03:34 |
| R3cur51v3 | It says that 0 is for no check on boot, 2 is for check every once in a whiel on boot | 03:34 |
| Zeu5 | R3cur51v3: okie i jus read it. i will go with 2. thank you. | 03:34 |
| jdsbluedevl | wise_crypt: already upgraded from 9.10 to 10.04 a while ago | 03:34 |
| R3cur51v3 | i would say 0 | 03:34 |
| pr0xy | I meant to ask how to run PlaneShift, not install it. When I launch it, a window briefly opens, then the window disappears. | 03:34 |
| rafaelsoaresbr | techteen: ActionParsnip: may I add the repositories of Lucid and do a "Partial upgrade"? is it a bad idea? | 03:34 |
| Zeu5 | thank you Blue1 as well | 03:34 |
| R3cur51v3 | Zeu5, IDK though | 03:34 |
| R3cur51v3 | Zeu5, what is that link ebian gave you? | 03:34 |
| jdsbluedevl | wise_crypt: no ifrename. Did you mean 'rfrename'? | 03:34 |
| ActionParsnip | rafaelsoaresbr: partial upgrades arent advised | 03:34 |
| R3cur51v3 | I can't find it, it was a Ubuntu doc page for fstab | 03:35 |
| Blue1 | viewer discretion is advised | 03:35 |
| wise_crypt | jdsbluedevl : what dmesg give you | 03:35 |
| Blue1 | R3cur51v3: you should be able to do man fstab | 03:35 |
| Zeu5 | R3cur51v3: i still have the link. its on my chrome | 03:35 |

| rafaelsoaresbr | techteen: if I got any trouble, I will must to do a clean install. | 03:38 |
| jdsbluedevl | wise_crypt: ok, found the log file, put it into gedit. dmesg has no record of an eth2, just eth3 | 03:39 |

| jdsbluedevl | wise_crypt: don't know. probably ot | 03:41 |
| jdsbluedevl | oh you mean from eth1 to eth3 again? | 03:41 |
| jdsbluedevl | probably | 03:41 |

| ActionParsnip | rafaelsoaresbr: if it gets you the upgrade then do it is all i can say | 03:41 |
| edlik1 | techteen: I have tried another USB port | 03:42 |
| techteen | rafaelsoaresbr: the repo should still be there after the upgrade | 03:42 |

| ptrxyz | hello guys! I just have a quick question about file systems. is there one, that allows to add short user comments to files? like ... a short text note or something. I got some binary files and I would like to add a few notes to them. if i do that using gnome, the notes get lost as soon as i move the file using a shell, so that is not really an option.... | 03:48 |

| soreau | jseamus: Do you know which component is overheating? | 04:35 |
| jseamus | soreau: not sure. when i run "sensors" the out put includes "temp1: +72.0°C (crit = +94.0°C)" while wine is running. | 04:36 |
| no-name | how do you install kubuntu in an existing ubuntu? | 04:36 |
| soreau | jseamus: well you could try the old radeon driver by booting with nomodeset as a kernel param, to see if its the graphics for some reason | 04:37 |
| rafaelsoaresbr | salmon: just drag-and-drop in gnome's theme | 04:37 |
| patkc66 | To install kubuntu you can install the kubuntu desktop package. | 04:37 |
| no-name | apt-get kubuntu-desktop? | 04:37 |
| jseamus | soreau: how would i go about that? | 04:37 |
| patkc66 | That's the one. kubuntu-desktop. It may by difficult to uninstall if you change your mind though. | 04:38 |
| soreau | jseamus: At the grub splash, select ubuntu then press e to edit and append that to the end of the kernel string where it says ro quiet splash | 04:38 |
| rafaelsoaresbr | no-name, that you fill up your system with a lot of apps, and your menus will get confused | 04:39 |
| no-name | ok | 04:39 |
| no-name | so just get kde core then? | 04:39 |

| no-name | patkc66, yea. i just want to try it. see which i like better | 04:40 |

| patkc66 | Definitely go with a clean install to a vm then. The DVD image might even be the best way to go in that event. | 04:41 |
| no-name | ya | 04:42 |
| patkc66 | If I remember right from when I tried that a few months ago, I think the DVD image even offers that as one of the alternative installations to do. | 04:42 |

| ThJ | Any quick fixes for M-Audio Audiophile 2496 and Ubuntu Lucid Lynx? This is supposed to be a very Linux friendly card, I'm told. Why doesn't PulseAudio work with it? | 05:54 |
| Lazydude | maybe my editing grub and boot screen fixed it. or its crappy bios | 05:54 |
| highguy | yo lazydude | 05:54 |
| Lazydude | whats up | 05:54 |
| schooley69 | why do i have to do metacity --replace so much | 05:54 |
| Warlord | I'm having an issue with video tearing when playing movies any type: avi, mpg, mkv, whatever. I tried different types of media players like vlc, mplayer, etc. I have an nvidia 275 gtx using offical drivers from nvida site. | 05:54 |
| Durf | It worked! | 05:54 |
| Warlord | Using ubuntu 10.04 32bit with latest kernal and drivers and have compiz enabled, I tried to disable restart and still tears.. I tried all the guides I found on google and still does the same thing. I'm not using no swap tho, I got like 4gb ram so that shouldn't matter. Does anyone have any idea? | 05:54 |
| Durf | Thank you bastid_razor and hiexpo | 05:54 |
| Durf | You two are great people :D | 05:54 |
| Phubar | Anyone can help? blank screen on install attempt | 05:54 |

| ThJ | Lazydude: Ok, completely different problem. My card is popular with Linux audio tinkerers, thus my surprise. | 05:57 |
| nuboon2age | Warlord: maybe it relates to the video card and driver you're using? | 05:57 |
| ljyanes | I can't install the nvidia drivers on my upgraded 10.04 because nouveau is messing around, any1 can help me? | 05:58 |
| Warlord | works fine in windows? | 05:58 |

| mek8630 | Does anybody in here use Vuze?? | 06:01 |
| dj_segfault | WOOT! To use extra mouse buttons, btnx doesn't work anymore with Ubuntu apparently, but easystroke works great! | 06:01 |

| Black_Phantom | mek8630, transmission all the way bruh | 06:02 |
| ben__ | verbatim | 06:02 |
| dj_segfault | ben__: your whole system will fit on a CD? | 06:02 |
| mek8630 | well I am trying to find something I can stream movies to the PS3 | 06:02 |
| Black_Phantom | ben__, maybe a flash drive ? | 06:02 |
| ben__ | ok DVD :) | 06:02 |
| ben__ | or yeah 32gig flash drive | 06:02 |
| Black_Phantom | mek8630, mediatomb :) | 06:02 |
| schooley69 | dvds are like 4 gigs | 06:02 |
| ben__ | 32gig flash drive then | 06:02 |
| erick | Hello, I installed mencoder, and I cant open youtube videos anymore, well at least is a guess that that seems to be the problem | 06:03 |
| mek8630 | Black_Phantom: does it download with all it's dependencies? | 06:03 |
| Black_Phantom | mek8630, yepp | 06:03 |
| schooley69 | i couldn't fit all my pron on 4 gigs | 06:03 |
| Black_Phantom | !mediatomb | mek8630 | 06:03 |
| ubottu | mek8630: To stream media to other UPNP aware devices (such as the Xbox, PS3, or iRadio) you need a UPNP server. See !info mediatomb for information regarding the MediaTomb package | 06:03 |
| bazhang | !ot > schooley69 | 06:03 |
| ubottu | schooley69, please see my private message | 06:03 |
| mek8630 | Black_Phantom: awesome can I get it in the Ubuntu software center? | 06:03 |
| dj_segfault | ben__: Assuming it could actually fit, you can use dd to make an image of your hard drive, and any DVD burning program to make the DVD. That won't be bootable though. | 06:03 |
| Black_Phantom | mek8630, yepp hell u can | 06:04 |
| ben__ | yeah i need it to be bootable... so i can't create an image .ISO and restore it anytime i want? | 06:04 |
| ben__ | I think you can do that with windows | 06:04 |
| mek8630 | Black_Phantom: awesome ok well will I need to configure any settings or will it all automatically configure itself in order for me to start streaming? | 06:04 |
| schooley69 | how i send a pm | 06:04 |
| Black_Phantom | mek8630, nahh its so simple even simpler than windows' applications | 06:05 |
| Black_Phantom | mek8630, just go to sound and video | 06:05 |
| Black_Phantom | and you will find it there | 06:05 |
| Black_Phantom | if u find any troubles | 06:05 |
| Black_Phantom | just get back | 06:05 |
| Black_Phantom | here | 06:05 |
| FloodBot2 | Black_Phantom: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 06:05 |
| theadmin | ben__: So you want to turn your current install into a bootable ISO, right? | 06:05 |
| bazhang | schooley69, /msg nickname message ; best to ask first | 06:05 |
| mek8630 | Black_Phantom: thanks alot man I needed that. | 06:05 |

| thune3 | ljyanes: the recommendation regarded modeset and xorg, not blacklisting | 06:11 |
| LazydudeCSS | lol my sound worked on first try now. | 06:11 |
| nuboon2age | Warlord: I see there is the resource http://www.nvnews.net which might be a place where folks more focused on nvidia would be available. I see there is some discussion of Linux support there... | 06:13 |
| Lazydude | i think there was a correlation between my boot splash screen and my sound | 06:13 |
| Lazydude | because now since the boot splash screen is fixed my sound works flawlessly | 06:13 |

| Warlord | so that's why I'm asking here | 06:15 |
| ljyanes | thune3: the thing is that nouveau is getting loaded for the tty and i can't seem to blacklist it properly... | 06:16 |
| nuboon2age | Warlord: Well it hasn't been too long... I'm googling around to see if there's any other useful discussion of it.. | 06:16 |
| mj8741 | after installing the nvidia driver - reboot use shift e and edit grub - take out quiet splash - change to nomodeset | 06:16 |

| tripelb | oh yes theadmin in the beginning of 10.04 there is a blue screen with a "piece of film" and a "little man" at the center bottom of the screen. What's that about? | 08:18 |
| theadmin | tripelb: ...what | 08:19 |
| tripelb | theadmin, vuze is not installed therefor not removed (no it just starts up and shows in the menu), so I did autoremove (it was suggested), now vuze is GONE from the applications Internet menu. Thanks to You! | 08:21 |
| theadmin | tripelb: Heh, that wasn't a problem %) | 08:22 |
| tripelb | oh yes theadmin in the beginning of 10.04 there is a blue screen with a "piece of film" and a "little man" at the center bottom of the screen. What's that about? - IT's two small images, with an arrow to the right in between at the bottom of the screen, before th black screen with the horiz flashing cursor. | 08:22 |

| Lazydude | its ok <mgiammarco> | 08:25 |
| lasse | Heyy guys, is this possible; I want to limit the CPU usage when on battery. Much like the "Power Saver" mode in Windows. I'm looking at powertop and the CPU is going crazy whenever there is a need for it (which would normally be good - just not when in battery mode) -- I want to put in a "hard" limit for it. Any ideas ? | 08:25 |
| Gryllida | hello? | 08:25 |
| kurrata | i have 1 rss reader(liferea) but for some reason for some feeds it shows full text for others 1 or 2 lines only. Is there something wrong on my end or thats some server configuration? | 08:26 |
| mgiammarco | it is strange because also with livecd it is the same so it is not a fault during installation or upgrade | 08:26 |
| lasse | kurrata, tried a different rss reader ? | 08:26 |
| theadmin | lasse: Look into "nice" and "renice" commands which limit CPU usage for certain programs... that's all I can give, but there might be another way | 08:26 |
| Lazydude | <mgiammarco> hold alt and hold left mouse click to drag window | 08:27 |
| Gryllida | Did anyone see my question? | 08:27 |
| Lazydude | and navigate around i believe | 08:27 |
| lasse | theadmin, nice is used on a process level though ... no ? | 08:27 |
| theadmin | Lazydude: There is no "window", he gets stuck at GDM/login prompt | 08:27 |
| Lazydude | ohh, gotcha | 08:27 |
| mgiammarco | yes, after login | 08:27 |
| theadmin | lasse: I think yes... I may be wrong | 08:27 |
| mgiammarco | I get an upper panel and a lower panel | 08:27 |
| mgiammarco | but they are empty! | 08:28 |
| lasse | theadmin, I think so too -- I need a more global limit :) Thanks anyways | 08:28 |
| theadmin | mgiammarco: Oh? Does hitting Alt+F2 give anything? | 08:28 |
| mgiammarco | nothing | 08:28 |
| theadmin | mgiammarco: ...something's extremely weird there | 08:28 |
| mgiammarco | so the user is locked | 08:28 |
| mgiammarco | I can exit only with ctrl+alt+f1 and reboot from console | 08:28 |
| theadmin | mgiammarco: Wait wait - is this an issue for a single user or for all users? | 08:28 |
| mgiammarco | the other strange thing is that the monitor is 16/9 the background picture is 16/9 | 08:29 |
| mgiammarco | and panels stop at a 4/3 size | 08:29 |
| DannyButterman | Hi there. My firefox fonts are stuck to bold since I've tried to install newer fonts from a windows XP system. Thoough I've suppressed all of them, my fonts in firefox are still Bold. It's rather ugly and tiring. Can someone help me ? | 08:29 |
| mgiammarco | theadmin: in livecd it happens for live user | 08:29 |
| theadmin | mgiammarco: Oh... so not a config/permission issue :/ | 08:30 |
| mgiammarco | theadmin: in the hard disk installation (started from 8.04 and now upgraded to 10.04) | 08:30 |
| lasse | DannyButterman, you need to reload your fonts | 08:30 |

| inktri | is it possible to wget a file and have it save to a specific location (not necessary ./)? | 08:30 |
| theadmin | DannyButterman: Go to Edit -> Preferences -> Content and change teh font settings | 08:30 |
| mgiammarco | theadmin: the users that have personalized a lot the desktop works | 08:30 |
| theadmin | inktri: wget http://example.org/index.html -O /someplace/somefile | 08:31 |
| mgiammarco | theadmin: users with standard theme do not work. I have created a new user and it does not work too | 08:31 |

| theadmin | solo-pcjc-g31777: Ask the question. | 08:37 |
| bullgard | theadmin: It is an alternative procedure to yours. You may call it too complicated. In my eyes this depends on the following task you have. | 08:37 |
| theadmin | bullgard: Excuse me, didn't understand which of my questions does that relate to. | 08:37 |
| solo-pcjc-g31777 | theadmin: The bunch-of-keys icon. When you hover over it - it says "click this icon to drop all elevated priveleges". What and why? | 08:38 |
| Lazydude | hmm... | 08:38 |
| theadmin | solo-pcjc-g31777: Some apps need admin priveleges to run. This stops those apps from using them | 08:38 |

| solo-pcjc-g31777 | theadmin: Of course, it happens every time I install software in Ubuntu Software Center. So it's just something was implemented to avoid hassle? I thought it was someone hacking into my system ... | 08:39 |
| celeritas | solo-pcjc-g31777, read up on sudo. its basically a visual notifier of your current sudo time. and by the way, you should make your username shorter so its easier to reply | 08:39 |
| llutz | bullgard: if you prefer to "cd" into all those working-dirs, you should make sure not to have "." in your $PATH | 08:39 |
| theadmin | solo-pcjc-g31777: Don't worry, you're safe enough :P Yeah, USC calls this icon | 08:40 |
| Lazydude | if i were you i would try to run a live cd of a different operating system, burn a back up of files, and then do a clean install of 10.04 | 08:40 |

| solo-pcjc-g31777 | theadmin: Yeah - I just tried the new Ubuntu 10.04 LTS. I liked it, it was bit buggy yet. So I'm sticking with 9.10 until all the bugs get worked out. Then we'll see ... | 08:44 |

| no-name | what distros are better for what purposes? | 08:45 |
| Gryllida | Flannel: these are several windows xp machines on the LAN,which I'm trying to mount, all of them give that error. | 08:46 |
| mneptok | this channel is not for discussion of what Linux distros suit what purposes. please keep the topics related to support issues. | 08:46 |
| theadmin | no-name: Well, see, for security tester of some kind Backtrack might be better. For a minimalistic user, Xubuntu might be. For a server admin, Ubuntu Server Edition or some server os like CentOS... For people with massive multimedia needs, Linux Mint... | 08:46 |
| solo-pcjc-g31777 | theadmin: Oh really !? So when is Maverick scheduled to be released? I'll never go back to Windows. BLEH! Makes me want to PUKE! BLEH! BLEH! <Puking> | 08:47 |
| Bakunin | guys... I have a problem with hibernate on my HP laptop. When I ask for hibernate on gnome menu, it seems to powerdown. When I ask for "hibernate" on terminal is the same, but the command "hibernate-disk" works properly. Any idea of how can I put it to work on gnome menu? It's ubuntu 10.04 | 08:47 |

| jMCg | Hrm... my above paste on ``this is what Ubuntu'' sees isn't quite true. That's just what hwinfo sees. What it does however, when I goto Monitor Preferences, is present both Monitors as 1024x768 -- even though one is 16:9 and the other is 16:10... | 08:48 |

| theadmin | llutz: Okay sorry. no-name, this might be better to be taken to a PM session. | 08:48 |
| solo-pcjc-g31777 | theadmin: Yeah - might as well wait for Maverick. Because when I tried burning the ISO for 10.04 LTS onto a CD-R - the Live CD didn't work. My IBM Thinkpad gave me an I/O error and prompted me to reboot when I tried running the disc. So I said "Forget it. Going back to 9.10". | 08:49 |

| solo-pcjc-g31777 | theadmin: Yeah - kinda weird - because the CD-R was brand new. I don't understand why it would be bad. | 08:51 |

| rocket16 | My Old Laptop with 512 MB RAM and has only Ubuntu 10.04 installed, using entire 80 GB Disk. (I did not wish to use Xubuntu or Lubuntu) I disabled all Visual Settings, and use minimal System, with no Compiz or AWN, just the default theme with wallpaper. The SWAP is 1.4 GB. Although I know that RAM is 100 times faster than HD Memory, but I wish to use more of SWAP. Is there a way that nearly entire SWAP is used all time, to give Memory Boost? | 08:51 |
| Lazydude | i had to burn 2 cds because the first one i burned was bad. so i lowered the burning speed to like 8x | 08:52 |

| VIk232 | Hello , i would like to install some NLP tool for my research (studies) , when i use the command : sudo apt-get install moses i get error msg : moses: Depends: python2.4-psyco but it is not installable or python2.4 but it is not installable , any idea how can solve this issue ? | 08:53 |
| Galerien | solo-pcjc-g31777: that's very important that you check it before burning, because normally you wouldn't be able to use the CD, and in exceptional cases, some ubuntu features can be unusable and make your system crash... | 08:53 |
| jMCg | rocket16: you can increase swappiness. | 08:53 |
| Gryllida | What is the line in Terminal to check whether a package of given name is installed? | 08:54 |
| llutz | Gryllida: dpkg -l package or apt-cache policy package | 08:54 |
| jMCg | VIk232: download moses source, and re-build it be compatible with python2.6 :P | 08:54 |
| theadmin | llutz: I don't think you can "dpkg -l package" | 08:54 |
| solo-pcjc-g31777 | thanks guys. I'll have to try that next time I attempt to use 10.04 LTS. I can probably just use the same CD-R and write over it? Or is that CD shot, I presume (i.e. I'll need a new one)? | 08:55 |

| solo-pcjc-g31777 | theadmin: it's "a'ight". I had one other CD from the last package I bought. So really - if nothing else - I only lost a buck on it ... | 08:56 |
| jMCg | VIk232: probably not without major breakage. | 08:56 |
| theadmin | now about that, I'll have to buy a bunch of CD's for when maverick is out... about 20 will do I guess. | 08:56 |

| Gryllida | chiiiiiz: gnome-shell? where do you see it? | 09:01 |
| Sm3gal | is flare on? | 09:02 |
| theadmin | chiiiiiz: imo: Gnome-shell is hardly in state in which it can be considered "done" | 09:02 |
| Gryllida | IDK what it is | 09:02 |
| jMCg | 07:48 < jMCg> Hrm... my above paste on ``this is what Ubuntu'' sees isn't quite true. That's just what hwinfo sees. What it does however, when I goto Monitor Preferences, is present both Monitors as 1024x768 -- even though one is 16:9 and the other is 16:10... | 09:02 |
| llutz | bullgard: /usr/lib/xorg/modules/input/synaptics_drv.so | 09:02 |

| Sm3gal | hes a mod and i went to high school with him | 09:04 |
| chiiiiiz | theadmin: if you mean I would rather go back to metacity, OK... but, a "metacity --replace" works, but I can not have gnome-panel starting automatically... even with an entry in the "applications at startup" list | 09:04 |

| Gryllida | LSD|Ninja, thanks for your suggestion, but I'm not very good at command-lining, not sure what that line does, thus don't want to put the password of the user into it; maybe I'd rather try to reinstall samba if you confirm that this is a good idea and probably say how. | 10:14 |
| raddy | So anybody else tried configuring GMail in Gnome Evolution 2.30? | 10:15 |
| LSD|Ninja | Gryllida: what it does is prompt the server for a list of shares available to the account you specify. It's a quick way of determining if it's the server at fault or Nautilus filesystem virtualisation | 10:15 |

| theadmin | Galerien: ...that was a question for the entire channel, not just you :/ | 11:10 |
| Celestar | ActionParsnip: but I should not need 2 CPUs to decode one 1080i video? | 11:10 |
| erUSUL | mute: do you have a way to tell the script where the disc is? | 11:10 |
| Galerien | theadmin: I know, but no one answered you, I just wanted to do something ;) | 11:10 |
| theadmin | Galerien: LOL | 11:10 |
| ActionParsnip | Celestar: not sure, i;m not convesant with all this 1080p/i/sausages stuff | 11:10 |
| conb123 | Galerien: Pfft, not a clue, does it matter? | 11:10 |
| Celestar | Galerien: ActionParsnip: tried it on Win7 and I'm using like .. 10% or so... | 11:10 |
| ActionParsnip | Celestar: use gnome-mplayer, mplayer is the daddy :) | 11:10 |
| Celestar | ActionParsnip: testing | 11:11 |
| ActionParsnip | Celestar: what video card? | 11:11 |
| Celestar | ActionParsnip: Radeon 3450 Mobility | 11:11 |
| Galerien | conb123: it's not a G15 or G19 or something like that from logitec ? | 11:11 |
| theadmin | Celestar: Oh, ATI :/ | 11:11 |
| mute | erUSUL: A field asks for that. I gave it to it, and that's when it goes "invalid" and quits | 11:11 |
| conb123 | Galerien: Ah just got it from dmesg, it's a 'Microsoft Comfort Curve Keyboard 2000' | 11:11 |
| theadmin | Celestar: I'm the only person in the world I know which does not have problems with an ATI video on Linux :/ | 11:12 |
| mute | erUSUL: /media/dvdrom | 11:12 |
| Celestar | ActionParsnip: much better. gnome-player is displaying a still image :P | 11:12 |
| erUSUL | mute: maybe instead of the mount point you have to tell the block device ( given you used loop it should be /dev/loop0 not /dev/cdrom or /dev/dvd ) | 11:12 |
| Celestar | theadmin: I never had any problems up to playing this video | 11:12 |
| theadmin | Celestar: A specific video? Do others play fine? This may be a bad file | 11:12 |
| Wipster | ahha ok finally sorted it, my original problem is soemtimes when I start my computer it choses a resolution double the length of my screen so the login is off the right hand side as are the menus untill I login when it switches back, here is the xorg output of the working login http://pastebin.org/315204 and this is the one of the busted login http://pastebin.org/315203 | 11:12 |
| mute | erUSUL: Pretty sure it wants mount point as the example is /media/dvd | 11:13 |
| Galerien | conb123: ok, sorry, it's just that for my G15 form logitech, there is a good app... but I don't know for Microsoft... I guess that microsoft + linux isn't a good combinaison.... | 11:13 |
| mute | but I'll try | 11:13 |
| Celestar | theadmin: the file plays well on WMP :( | 11:13 |
| theadmin | Celestar: oh... | 11:13 |
| Celestar | theadmin: 720p files seem to work. | 11:13 |
| mute | erUSUL: That doesn't work either... | 11:13 |
| Celestar | theadmin: I have other files 1080i that have exactly the same effect. | 11:14 |
| mute | erUSUL: Can I use -o dvd to make use the /dev/dvd block? | 11:14 |
| erUSUL | mute: ok; then i'm out of ideas; should ask the makers of the script ... | 11:14 |
| Celestar | theadmin: I'm using tremendous amounts of CPU power to decode the file, | 11:14 |
| conb123 | Galerien: haha, might try snippits | 11:14 |
| ActionParsnip | Celestar: ati seem to support windows more so the card will be doing more work | 11:14 |
| Wipster | on the working one it seems opening ACPI failed and on tghe busted one it opened it fine, dont know if thats related | 11:14 |
| conb123 | Galerien: Oh no, I don't think that's what I want actually | 11:15 |
| Celestar | ActionParsnip: yep that much is certain | 11:15 |
| brett- | Hey - I just installed ubuntu 10.4 Lucid on my box (headless) when I typed the keystrokes are messed up, "qwerty" shows c.vgn or something :| anyone know an easy fix for this? | 11:15 |
| Galerien | conb123: didn't read much, but I don't think so | 11:15 |
| ActionParsnip | Celestar: try: mplayer -vo X11 file.avi | 11:15 |
| ActionParsnip | !keyboard | brett- | 11:16 |
| ubottu | brett-: To switch your keyboard layout on GNOME: System -> Preferences -> Keyboard (GNOME) - KDE: K -> System Settings -> Regional & Language -> Keyboard Layout (KDE) - Xfce: see https://help.ubuntu.com/6.10/xubuntu/desktopguide/C/switch-keyboard-layout.html - See also !Shortcuts | 11:16 |
| brett- | ActionParsnip: all the keyboard settings are correct. | 11:16 |
| Wexi | so does anybody have anything on the 10.04 PostSession issue? | 11:16 |
| tasslehoff | Is there a repo somewhere that maintains up-to-date emacs-packages? I'd like 23.2 and newer versions of stuff like pymacs and ropemacs. | 11:16 |
| Celestar | ActionParsnip: x11 you mean :P same effect. mplayer is not dropping frames however, it just renders them below speed | 11:16 |
| llutz | zauber: may i ask how you backup using rsync as non-root without messing up the permissions of the files? | 11:16 |
| erUSUL | brett-: headless--> so you are using ssh to connect to it? a ssh client problem ? | 11:16 |
| brett- | ActionParsnip: it's a headless machine, regardless of the keyboard / my laptop wont work, my iphone wont work - basically it's something in ubuntu. keyboard is on US 105 layout ;| | 11:16 |
| ActionParsnip | Celestar: or: mplayer -vo gl2 file.avi | 11:17 |
| brett- | erUSUL: ssh is fine, when I connect to it, but when I VNC it's broken! | 11:17 |
| theadmin | tasslehoff: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-elisp/+archive/ppa | 11:17 |
| Zela | I know you can use gimp to photoshop, but does anyone know how to photoshop reeealy well? | 11:17 |
| brett- | seems like a gnome problem | 11:17 |
| Celestar | ActionParsnip: all the same | 11:17 |
| zauber | llutz: sorry for dissapearing a while. Yes you may ask. I use the -a flag (archive mode) which preserves permissions on the files. | 11:17 |
| erUSUL | brett-: so it is a vnc server/client problem | 11:18 |
| Galerien | ActionParsnip: that's opengl rendering ? With ati...? | 11:18 |
| Celestar | ati's opengl support appears to be horrific | 11:18 |
| Celestar | :P | 11:18 |
| brett- | erUSUL: even if I connect a monitor/keyboard to this box - the problem is still there (the keyboard is messed) | 11:18 |
| ActionParsnip | Celestar: sure, as long as you have desktop effects running it should be usable | 11:18 |
| ActionParsnip | afaik | 11:18 |
| brett- | the problem lies within Ubuntu (gnome) I beleive somewhere | 11:18 |
| Galerien | Celestar: can you give us the result for this command : glxinfo | grep rendering | 11:18 |
| theadmin | tasslehoff: Hm, this only seems to be for Karmic and below. | 11:18 |
| zauber | lluts: and to answer your previous question, yes, my user needs to be int the group of the process owning the virtual mailboxes. Which it is. (In my setup, that group is called "mail"). However, all the folders and files are created with 700 permissions. So I can't read them even being in their group. | 11:19 |
| Celestar | direct rendering: Yes | 11:19 |
| Celestar | OpenGL renderer string: ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3400 Series | 11:19 |
| Zela | I know you can use gimp to photoshop, but does anyone know how to photoshop really well? | 11:19 |
| Celestar | this stuff | 11:19 |
| zauber | llutz: se above, misspelt your name | 11:19 |
| Galerien | Celestar: ok, so the driver is correctly installed... | 11:19 |
| Celestar | Galerien: yep | 11:19 |
| Galerien | have you tried any benchmark ? | 11:19 |
| Celestar | Galerien: if it helps, if I run ubuntu within VMware from a windows host I have the same effect. | 11:20 |
| llutz | zauber: that works as user? user cannot change ownership of files, so how do you write them/to what filesystem? | 11:20 |
| Celestar | Galerien: other than having glxgears at around 8k fps, nope | 11:20 |
| Galerien | Celestar: VMware won't help you with powerproblem... :D | 11:20 |
| Celestar | Galerien: well but it's not an ATI card then anymore. | 11:21 |
| Celestar | Galerien: but some of the VMware emulated stuff. | 11:21 |
| brett- | erUSUL: any idea? | 11:21 |
| Galerien | Celestar: I know, that's what I mean | 11:21 |
| zauber | llutz: on my local filesystem, the uid and gid are preserved (so it's whatever the uid/gid was on the remote server). Since my local operating system doesnt care about remote users, that works just fine as far as I can tell | 11:21 |
| Galerien | Celestar: can you try that ? : http://unigine.com/products/heaven/ | 11:21 |
| Celestar | Galerien: cehcking | 11:21 |
| erUSUL | brett-: no sorry; i take you checked System>Pref..>Keyboard for any oddities | 11:21 |
| brett- | erUSUL: yes I did, I tried everything - even what was found on google, nothing seemed to work! | 11:22 |
| wildbat | any tips for gnome application automation like mouse mouse/click similation like autoit in window? | 11:22 |
| Celestar | Galerien: sure can but need to download | 11:22 |
| Galerien | Celestar: it's like 200 mb to download, but If you can run it, I don't know why you can't read HD, and If you can't, you just don't have enough power, may that be driver fault or hardware... | 11:22 |
| zauber | llutz: again, it works without problems with all other folders I want to back up, because I can give the backup-user read access. But since I can't control the maildir permissions, I can't back up the email. | 11:22 |
| Galerien | Celestar: I know, sorry | 11:23 |
| evilsherpa | hey all, my ipod keeps changing from dev/sdd to dev/scc to dev/sd1 so i cant mount it with write priveledges for more than 1 offs | 11:23 |
| Celestar | Galerien: no problem, I'm just on mobile internet :P | 11:23 |
| evilsherpa | how do i get it to mount continuously with the same mount point | 11:23 |
| Galerien | Celestar: but it's the best benchmark I know for linux... (it works for windows too if you want to compare) | 11:23 |
| Celestar | Galerien: so I'm stuck at around 300kb/sec | 11:23 |
| evilsherpa | so that i can give my user write access on an ongoing basis | 11:23 |
| wildbat | evilsherpa, use uuid | 11:23 |

| magnets | erUSUL: ok thanks. I just attempted a compile and it used ~900MB and I ran out of space | 11:25 |
| Celestar | Galerien: the download won't be that fast anyway :P | 11:25 |
| evilsherpa | give it a whirl i will | 11:25 |

| Spyzer | is there any way to refresh the gnome panel in ubuntu so that every item gets re arranged?? | 11:26 |
| theadmin | Wilthril: While sure. But beforehand run chkdsk on it (from windows) | 11:26 |
| theadmin | Spyzer: killall gnome-panel will restart it | 11:27 |
| kiamo | Does anyone know of a good qq chat client for linux? Empathy doesn't work | 11:27 |
| theadmin | kiamo: Pidgin has qq support | 11:27 |
| erUSUL | magnets: aouch source code is 407 MiB .... | 11:27 |
| ActionParsnip | kiamo: pidgin | 11:27 |

| nsomnia | its repeatable | 11:34 |
| ActionParsnip | nsomnia: http://blogs.sun.com/avinashjoshi/entry/using_apt_get_behind_a looks like you gotta edit apt.conf foo | 11:34 |

| nsomnia | i cant even find the processes that are locking it up to kill them | 11:34 |
| Galerien | evilsherpa: Are you sure about that cause I remember papers talking about some Uk normal web sites that we couldn't browse from australia... | 11:34 |

| Galerien | evilsherpa: yeah, you can use some proxy for that (some are open in Philadelphia), but it was some dentist website (O_o') and co | 11:37 |
| ActionParsnip | stuart_: makes sure your user is the owner of all its own data, you'll get some errors but they are ok | 11:37 |
| evilsherpa | Galerien, yeh tor, but its slow and i dont need tv.com so its just clogging tor | 11:37 |

| stuart_ | the frame under the popup cant be used and I cant click accept or deny - its locked up the whole frame | 11:45 |
| radi_ | i want to boot the installer from hard drive using grub | 11:45 |
| llutz | radi_: grub2 can boot from iso-files | 11:46 |
| ActionParsnip | radi: you could setup a PXE server and PXE boot to the liveCD using the other system (assuming your system supports LAN booting) | 11:46 |
| radi_ | grub1! | 11:46 |
| rajaditya_ | http://www.centos.org/docs/5/html/5.2/Installation_Guide/s1-steps-network-installs-x86.html | 11:46 |
| DarkStar1 | radi_: you have the iso on your drive? | 11:46 |
| brez | [us]. and typed in "ASDF" which was messed up, went back to preference, reset my kb layout and rebooted VNC ;x | 11:46 |
| radi_ | i do | 11:46 |
| ActionParsnip | radi_: grub legacy cannot boot iso | 11:46 |
| Galerien | Celestar: wait for the end (if you are patient enough and give me the log file | 11:46 |
| radi_ | ActionParsnip, i know, but it can using initrd and vmlinux | 11:46 |
| wise_crypt | radi_: and where would you like its installed not in the same disk i assume | 11:47 |
| radi_ | nope, same disk | 11:47 |
| Galerien | Celestar: what is you graphic card again? | 11:47 |
| radi_ | well, i will format the hard drive during install | 11:47 |
| DarkStar1 | radi_: can't you just mount the iso in another partition? | 11:47 |
| wildbat | mute, you can't mount a device without a fs ~ not to speak of it don't exist | 11:47 |
| mute | Again, not what I'm after. I need to satisfy a script's demand for a /dev/dvd block device when I already have the data it's looking for in the form of an iso, just not on a disc since there is no disc drive. It's got NOTHING AT ALL to do with installing Ubuntu, unetbootin, flash drives, or anything thing as basic as that. | 11:47 |
| radi_ | DarkStar1, i already did that, i asked how to boot it | 11:47 |
| DarkStar1 | radi_: Oh sorry... I didn't pay your question it's proper attention.. | 11:48 |
| mute | wildbat: It has a filesystem. iso9660. AFAIK, the -t auto is default | 11:48 |
| llutz | mute: /dev/dvd is just a link, change it to point to your mounted iso | 11:48 |
| radi_ | i want to install ubuntu, using grub to boot the installer | 11:48 |
| radi_ | how to do that ? | 11:48 |
| mute | llutz: elaborate a bit? | 11:49 |
| ActionParsnip | radi_: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=774539 | 11:49 |
| Celestar | Galerien: 2fps. | 11:49 |
| llutz | mute: rm /dev/dvd ; ln -s /your/iso/mountpoint /dev/dvd | 11:49 |
| Galerien | Celestar: what is you graphic card again? | 11:50 |
| ActionParsnip | llutz: will need sudo for those :) | 11:50 |
| Galerien | HD 5xxx? | 11:50 |
| llutz | ActionParsnip: sure you need | 11:50 |
| Celestar | Galerien: HD3450 | 11:50 |
| wise_crypt | radi_: i think that imposible to format the installer disk you will lost the installer well may be i wrong | 11:50 |
| radi_ | ActionParsnip, cant i just use initrd and vmlinux ? | 11:50 |
| radi_ | like i did with many other distros ? | 11:50 |
| mute | llutz: would that be the MOUNT POINT specifically, or the /dev/loop0, since to mount the iso requires mount -o loop | 11:50 |
| Galerien | Celestar: ok... did you try to select all the lowest settings ? | 11:51 |
| llutz | mute: where do you have mounted the iso to? | 11:51 |
| mute | /media/dvdrom | 11:51 |
| llutz | mute: so it is: ln -s /media/dvdrom /dev/dvd | 11:51 |
| Celestar | Galerien: not yet, sec. | 11:51 |
| Celestar | Galerien: writing "Benchmark" on the title page takes about 45 seconds. | 11:52 |

| Celestar | Galerien: disabling everything buys me another fps | 11:53 |

| Ubuntor | Hey guys, I could need a few tips about problems installing new Ubuntu 10.04 Netbook version. I Use: Eee 901 with Easypeasy 1.0 no CD, only USB. I have tested regular universal USB installer and Unetbooting-eeeubuntulinux.276 without any luck. The hing is that the computer do not boot on the USB drive even that i changed the boot sequence in "bios" from HDD to Removable Device. | 11:54 |
| Celestar | Galerien: using the third party driver UI | 11:54 |
| Ubuntor | Thanks in advance. | 11:54 |
| bazhang | Ubuntor, easypeasy? is that from Ubuntu ? | 11:55 |
| * DarkStar1 is so glad to be using nVidia right now... "None of that ATI crap" :) | 11:55 | |
| abuayyoub | was wondering if anyone here had any experience with a program called "NZBGET" ? | 11:55 |
| Galerien | Celestar: Yes, I know, otherwise you wouldn't have been able to use this bench, but how did you install it? | 11:55 |
| mute | llutz: Thanks, but no dice.. | 11:55 |
| Galerien | did you download the driver from the web site, used apt-get...? | 11:56 |
| Ubuntor | I think Easypeasy used the first version of the ubuntu ee, but im not sure. | 11:56 |
| ActionParsnip | bazhang: http://www.geteasypeasy.com/ its yet another ubuntu spinoff | 11:56 |
| bazhang | ActionParsnip, derivative then? | 11:56 |
| ActionParsnip | Ubuntor: its not supported here | 11:56 |
| ActionParsnip | bazhang: indeed | 11:56 |
| bazhang | Ubuntor, why not the une | 11:56 |
| llutz | mute: to restore the link "sudo ln -s /dev/sr0 /dev/dvd" | 11:56 |
| Celestar | Galerien: don't get the question. Administration->Hardware Drivers->ATI FGLRX->install | 11:56 |
| wise_crypt | mute: acctually you can extract an iso file | 11:57 |

| Ubuntor | ActionParsnip: yah I know, i would like to go back to Ubuntu. But is there any thing regarding that I hve installed the easy peasy that makes it hard for me to go back to Ubuntu Netbook version? | 11:57 |
| wildbat | llutz, mute i think pointing to the iso is better ? since dvd is block device? | 11:57 |
| mute | wise_crypt: I know, but I need the script, which is set up to extract and organize a bunch of .cab files for the install. | 11:57 |
| Ubuntor | ubottu: yup, thats what im trying to install now. | 11:57 |

| ActionParsnip | Ubuntor: not sure, i'm not familiar with the distro | 11:57 |
| Ubuntor | Ah. | 11:57 |
| bazhang | Ubuntor, just use unetbootin to install UNE | 11:58 |
| mute | I'll try things another way | 11:58 |
| ActionParsnip | Ubuntor: they have their own hannel on freenode: #easypeasy | 11:58 |
| ActionParsnip | Ubuntor: as well as their own forum: http://forums.geteasypeasy.com/ | 11:58 |
| Galerien | Celestar: ok, well, that's how I broke my driver... | 11:59 |
| Ubuntor | bazhang: yeah, im trying to do that but the 901 don't find the USB. I have used Unetbooting to make a bootable USB with UNR 10.04. The Computer dont booting on the USB and I have changed the boot sequences to start with USB and then HDD. | 11:59 |

| ActionParsnip | _Luca_: grab the 64bit desktop ISO, MD5 test it, burn it slowly then install it | 12:10 |
| ssta | Is there a 'preferred' way to persuade ucarp to manually fail an IP over without needing to reboot or manually ifconfig down the interface (which seems to need a networking restart to get it to work properly anyway)? | 12:10 |
| jokey | is it just me or does http://archive.ubuntu.com just report "It works!" over ipv6? | 12:10 |
| jrib | jokey: just you | 12:10 |
| jrib | jokey: oh wait, never mind. ignore me. I'm not on ipv6 | 12:11 |
| ActionParsnip | _Luca_: its the same for any install, your chip is 64bit so use the 64bit ISO | 12:11 |
| Tonus | jokey, I don't even get ipv6 IP's when resolving it. | 12:11 |
| _Luca_ | ActionParsnip: ty .. but the machine just shuts down when the live cd gets to the graphic part .. i read somewhere that it's related to the built in video card or something .. couldn't find any solution around the web. That's why i was hoping someone tried that on the T1500 machine | 12:12 |

| _Luca_ | ActionParsnip: yes .. and used the disk for installation on other machines .. the problem is on the very t1500 precision side | 12:14 |
| mute | jrib: I ask because I was following along with someting else, and I just switched it to bash without finding out if the current versions were set to dash by default. | 12:14 |
| ActionParsnip | _Luca_: make sure you have the latest bios too, this can help | 12:14 |
| jokey | Tonus: only apt-get and lynx are affected... wget and dig work sanely | 12:14 |

| jrib | vak: check for relevant options. mrxvt may not be the same as urxvt, urxvt works fine | 12:26 |

| Knick-RDP | As I pressed enter too early when configuring it and now the configuration is messed. | 13:32 |
| indus | Arti, basically the drivers are to get the printer running , as long as the data goes through the port | 13:32 |
| Arti | indus yes ,in that psot it says that this driver will work only with usb port | 13:32 |
| indus | Arti, oh ok | 13:32 |

This is a bad one! Try to replicate it if you can and then go to bugs.ubuntu.com. The other thing to do is to make sure that your partition isn't still on there and isn't getting mounted (that's where the stuff I asked you to | 14:33 |

| erUSUL | [manas]: make the dir then change its owner and group to dhcpd both | 14:46 |
| cmol | [manas]: make the dir /var/run/dhcpd and making dhcps owner | 14:46 |
| inveratulo | [manas]: it means, make the directory and all parent directories if neccessary, then change ownership of the director to dhcpd | 14:46 |
| [manas] | thanks | 14:47 |
| Tecna | [manas]: mkdir creates a directory. See 'man mkdir'. chown changes the ownership a a file or directory. See 'man chown' | 14:47 |
| inveratulo | [manas]: also 'man' is your friend. 'man mkdir' and 'man chown' would tell you this easily. | 14:47 |

| robse | I have a problem with upstart in Lucid LTS server. I have bind9 compiled with dlz-mysql. bind9 starts with init.d, while mysql with upstart. Now, bind wont start if mysql is not up, and that's a problem with every reboot | 15:20 |
| Twiztid | LinuxFreakD: he says they're arent any lines above 'mount of filesystem failed' | 15:21 |
| Twiztid | LinuxFreakD: wols: below file system failed says a maint. shell will now be started. control d will terminate this shell and retry | 15:21 |
| wols | Twiztid: usually you have to "fsck /dev/sdaX" where X is your partition to fix the problem. but I'd rather know the error message | 15:21 |
| id10t | anyone able to help with samba? after upgrading from 9.10 to 10.04, i can't follow symlinks | 15:22 |
| robse | it seems that bind starts before mysql no matter where I put it (now it's in rc2 S99bind9). Help ? | 15:22 |
| wols | Twiztid: yes you need the rrot prompt from earlier and run fsck. tho what you told us was not the error message | 15:22 |
| wols | robse: removed the ther instances of the bins start script? | 15:22 |
| LoRez | anybody else having issues with listen(1) just disappearing (ie, no longer in the notification bar or the task bar), but still playing music? | 15:23 |

| wols | robse: you sure your atart script is the only one and there is no upstart | 15:24 |

| jrib | mstevens: well... that is a pain. There's a bug at bugs.ubuntu.com with a workaround. I can look for it if you can't find it (or aren't sure what to do after reading it). Let me know | 15:25 |
| Twiztid | wols: ok, hes sayin below that it says root@twiztid-laptop:~# | 15:25 |
| irv | wols: kern.log doesn't appear to update on the failed boot attempts... the only logs in there are from successful attempts. i can paste the same spot where it's failing | 15:26 |
| wols | Twiztid: as I said: fsck | 15:26 |

| P-Nuts | Hello! What's the easiest way to mount an ext4fs disk on Ubuntu 8.10? Is there a kernel module I can install to add support? | 15:26 |
| wols | irv: what for? and I told you two times already what to do. do you think I do a third time? | 15:26 |
| Twiztid | wols: ok so at root@twiztid-laptop:~# should he type fsck /dev/sda1 ? | 15:27 |
| mstevens | jrib: genius, "Timeout error: Sorry, something just went wrong in launchpad"... | 15:27 |
| BPower | P-Nuts, did you try searching apt for "ext4fs"? | 15:27 |
| wols | Twiztid: if sda1 is /, yes | 15:27 |
| X-Sleepy-X | if you have a connected user with ssh/sftp on your computer is there a simple command to force disconnection on that user? | 15:27 |

| Twiztid | wols: k, telling him, brb wil result | 15:27 |
| jrib | X-Sleepy-X: kill his shell? | 15:28 |
| id10t | X-Sleepy-X - kill their process | 15:28 |
| wols | Twiztid: basically this is the equivalent of a chkdsk on windows. so data can be lost! | 15:28 |
| P-Nuts | BPower: The only package that mentioned it is e2fsprogs, and I have it installed. | 15:28 |
| rafaelsoaresbr | can I relocate /var to a symbolic link? | 15:28 |
| shomon_ | wols: no that didn't work. I only got that gdm-config is not installed. Is it the same package? not in the apt repository. | 15:29 |

| Mion | irv: would help if you told us exactly what the statup issue was | 15:34 |
| jrib | mstevens: good news. If you see changelog of 2.30.2-0ubuntu1 in https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/lucid/+source/gdm/2.30.2-0ubuntu1, you'll see: Add a new session type "~/.xsession" and a link to the bug report | 15:35 |

| Wipster | jakuplutzen, how do you do that, every time I tried to remaster a cd it just broke, even if I just updated the programs on the default install no modification it still broke | 16:04 |
| jakuplutzen | hellwolf06: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/creating-custom-ubuntu-live-cd-with-remastersys.html | 16:04 |
| hellwolf06 | jakuolutzen, i run in my ubuntu live usb "Hellwolf06's ubuntu live usb" | 16:04 |
| hellwolf06 | jakuplutzen, i hate reconstructor and remastersys | 16:05 |
| jrib | steffan: so -a is "address"? Are you sure you can't use oidentd.conf? http://linux.die.net/man/5/oidentd.conf | 16:05 |
| hellwolf06 | UCK alsow | 16:05 |
| hellwolf06 | Reconstructor doesn't work | 16:05 |
| hellwolf06 | And i have troublesUCK and Remastersys | 16:05 |
| abuayyoub | Anyone here fimular with a program called NZBGET? | 16:05 |
| nicofs | Can I change the names of the basic ubuntu menu entries ("Applications","Places","System")? | 16:05 |
| jrib | steffan: if you are sure you can't, then you have to edit the init script | 16:06 |
| jakuplutzen | hellwolf06: it has always worked perfectly for me. Have you tried to follow the tutorial on ubuntugeek.com? remenber altso, you need a lot of free disk space for remastersys to work | 16:06 |
| hellwolf06 | alsow, i want to have custom wallpaper and nautilus scripts and | 16:06 |
| znupii | does anybody have a lightscribe version of lucyd lynx CD label ? | 16:06 |
| h00k | abuayyoub: GO ahead and ask your specific question | 16:06 |
| steffan | jrib: Edit /etc/init.d/oidentd? | 16:06 |
| kahen | bash-completion is broken. try (in an empty directory) the following: touch "A's_011"; touch "A's_021". then try ls A<tab> and it expands (correctly) to A\'s_0, but ls A\'s_01<tab> doesn't expand to A\'s_011 as it should | 16:06 |
| jakuplutzen | hellwolf06: remastersys will do that | 16:06 |
| jrib | steffan: if you are sure you can't use oidentd.conf, yes | 16:06 |
| hellwolf06 | jakuplutzen, and nautilus scripts, templates, deleting oo.o | 16:06 |
| abuayyoub | h00k, hi, It seems like I have everything installed and configured correctly, however, this may be a stupid question but how in the world do i start the program? start it downloading i mean | 16:06 |
| znupii | does anybody have a lightscribe version of lucyd lynx CD label ? | 16:07 |
| hellwolf06 | Hellwolf06 | 16:07 |
| jakuplutzen | hellwolf06: i think that should work too.. or maybe I am wrong. It's a long time since i used it. | 16:07 |
| h00k | abuayyoub: assuming you're talking about the program you asked about, does it have a man page? try 'man [programnamehere]' in a terminal | 16:07 |
| hellwolf06 | jakuplutzen, where do u come from? | 16:07 |
| jrib | kahen: wfm | 16:08 |
| corax | does anyone know how to get IMAP4 to work in Evolution ... so messages with attachments or embedded images can be retrieved ? | 16:08 |
| jakuplutzen | hellwolf06: The Faroe Islands | 16:08 |
| jakuplutzen | hellwolf06: Between Norway and Iceland | 16:08 |
| steffan | Is it possible to login via a SSH key if an account is locked? | 16:08 |
| abuayyoub | h00k yes, i am talking about the program called NZBget. there is no man page and the official TRAC page might as well be in Sanscrit it dosent make any sence to me | 16:08 |
| hellwolf06 | aaa | 16:08 |
| jakuplutzen | hellwolf06: haha why? | 16:08 |
| hellwolf06 | i am from russia | 16:08 |
| steffan | !ru > hellwolf06 | 16:09 |
| ubottu | hellwolf06, please see my private message | 16:09 |
| abuayyoub | h00k, it's a terminal based nzb/usenet program like hellanzb | 16:09 |
| jakuplutzen | hellwolf06: ok nice. | 16:09 |
| kahen | jrib: do you have bash-completion installed and enabled? | 16:09 |
| hellwolf06 | steffan, i am fed up with russian community help: swears | 16:09 |
| steffan | I see | 16:09 |
| kahen | you have to manually edit your bash configuration to enable it. just installing it isn't enough | 16:09 |
| jrib | kahen: how do I enable it? | 16:10 |
| hellwolf06 | jakuplutzen, anyway,thx | 16:10 |
| hellwolf06 | HEY GUY, If i customise my liveusb and whight it on livecd, it will work? | 16:10 |
| steffan | Is it possible to login to an account if it is locked using Ubuntu 10.04LTS? | 16:11 |
| kahen | jrib: for all users or just yourself? | 16:11 |
| jrib | steffan: try? | 16:11 |
| jrib | kahen: just myself | 16:11 |
| jrib | kahen: or better yet, whatever you did | 16:11 |
| steffan | jrib: Is it _suppost_ to work? | 16:11 |
| corax | anyone ? plz | 16:11 |
| jrib | steffan: I don't know | 16:11 |
| jakuplutzen | hellwolf06: no prob | 16:11 |
| Njh | does anyone know how to test to see if a file exists in a script | 16:12 |
| jrib | Njh: #bash knows | 16:12 |
| Rajko | hello | 16:12 |
| irv | can anyone help me figure out a startup issue? thanks. my kern.log from a successful boot is pasted here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/446135/ the part where I wrote "this is where it usually stops" is where it usually stops while booting. once in a while it boots successfully which is how i got access to the log file. it does the same when trying to boot either kernel -21 or -22 | 16:12 |
| Rajko | i want mysqld and apache2 to start on boot | 16:12 |
| Rajko | but they don't want to | 16:12 |
| Njh | jrib: thanks | 16:12 |
| acicula | steffan, you cant login or? | 16:12 |
| Rajko | even though they have rc.d entries | 16:12 |
| jrib | Rajko: install them, they do that by default | 16:12 |
| hellwolf06 | * #ubuntu-ru :Cannot send to channel | 16:12 |
| Rajko | they arent. | 16:12 |
| jrib | Rajko: how did you install them? | 16:12 |
| hellwolf06 | How can i fix it? | 16:12 |
| jrib | !who | Rajko | 16:12 |

| hellwolf06 | 66 | 16:12 |
| jrib | Rajko: what happens when you try to start them afterwards (and how do you try)? | 16:13 |
| hellwolf06 | 66 | 16:13 |
| Rajko | they work fine after i start or restart them manually | 16:13 |
| regeya | oy vey. | 16:13 |
| Pici | hellwolf06: Please stop that. | 16:13 |
| acicula | hellwolf06, stop flooding the channel, probably why you got muted on -ru ? | 16:13 |
| Rajko | jrib, using /etc/init.d/mysqld restart and /etc/init.d/apache2 restart | 16:13 |
| nicofs | Can I change the names of the basic ubuntu menu entries ("Applications","Places","System")? | 16:13 |
| h00k | hellwolf06: you might want to take a look at the Guidelines and review them | 16:13 |
| jrib | Rajko: and what's the result? | 16:13 |
| hellwolf06 | No,i mean Bay bay | 16:13 |
| Rajko | jrib, they start fine | 16:14 |
| h00k | ubottu: tell hellwolf06 about guidelines | 16:14 |
| regeya | ∞ | 16:14 |
| ubottu | hellwolf06, please see my private message | 16:14 |
| regeya | cripes, sorry | 16:14 |
| jrib | Rajko: how are you determining they don't start? | 16:14 |
| darkham | hi this http://pastebin.com/36FyJ0xA is the list of packages installed by apt-get build-dep mplayer on ubuntu lucid, but i've Error: X11 support required for GUI compilation. | 16:14 |
| darkham | what i need | 16:14 |
| Rajko | jrib, they aren't running after the system reboots | 16:14 |
| jrib | Rajko: how are you determining they aren't running? | 16:14 |
| Rajko | ps aux | 16:14 |
| Rajko | also it's not responding to mysql or http ports obviously | 16:14 |
| jrib | kahen: still works | 16:15 |
| hellwolf06 | hook, 66-By by Good buy | 16:15 |
| corax | Rajko: what is the "binding" ip-adress for both services ? | 16:15 |
| martian | I just did a release upgrade on my server installation, and my 'primary' drive, which has always been "sda" is now "sdc". What would cause this, and how can I revert it? | 16:15 |
| jrib | kahen: wait, sorry. I forgot to use bash :) You're correct, it doesn't complete | 16:15 |
| Rajko | they bind to a specific ip | 16:15 |
| steffan | acicula: Root was enabled when I got this server (for some reason, is it enabled on the server version by default?). I created a group %admins with sudoers access, but added myself to %admin by mistake and then disabled root. So I don't have root access at the moment | 16:15 |
| jrib | Rajko: did you check the logs? Presumably they attempt to start but fail for some reason, correct? | 16:16 |
| Rajko | well, mysql binds to 127.0.0.1 | 16:16 |
| Rajko | as it is by default | 16:16 |
| jrib | Rajko: please address people you are responding to, otherwise it get's confusing | 16:17 |
| Slart | martian: hmm.. no other changes? do you know what /dev/sda is now? perhaps a cd drive or something took the first two places? | 16:17 |
| jrib | gets... | 16:17 |
| corax | Rajko: your issue might be related to a "delay" in the service "networking" ...which means that the mysqld and apache2d does not yet have an adress to bind to, during boot. | 16:17 |
| kahen | jrib: well... time to dig through the source then... man /etc/bash_completion is ugly :( | 16:17 |
| acicula | steffan, err are you using ubuntu? you have to boot into single user mode or use a livecd to get back to root | 16:17 |
| Rajko | this might be the case | 16:17 |
| Rajko | because apache2 started fine on boot before i changed it's bind ip to be explicit | 16:17 |
| Slart | !who | Rajko | 16:18 |
| ubottu | Rajko: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) | 16:18 |
| Rajko | but mysql should always work fine as it's binding to 127.0.0.1 | 16:18 |
| Rajko | Slart, you are generating half the channel's noise by doing the !who thing | 16:18 |
| Slart | Rajko: not really.. but even if I did it doesn't make your situation better | 16:19 |
| corax | Rajko: the local ip (127.0.0.1) should work ... (but not if interfaces or the network service is started _after_ the mysqld and apached services) | 16:19 |
| Rajko | corax, can i set up dependencies or something | 16:20 |
| corax | Rajko: I would start looking at the network issue first (as I have no problem, with either service after a regular install) ... first question...is one of the binding adresses on a wireless interface ? | 16:21 |
| Twiztid | wos: ur the best! my dad reports all is up and running! any guess as to why it failed? | 16:22 |
| nicofs | Can I change the names of the basic ubuntu menu entries ("Applications","Places","System")? | 16:23 |
| Rajko | corax, this is my /etc/network/interfaces http://codepad.org/SvQmHVoE | 16:24 |
| Twiztid | wols: ur the best! my dad reports all is up and running! any guess as to why it failed to mount the filesystme? | 16:24 |
| corax | Rajko: (before messin' around with "dependencies" or "boot sequence orders", its better to find the course, as the issue might become more difficult to track, after adding more sources of errors) | 16:24 |
| Slart | nicofs: I don't think there is an option through the regular settings.. but there might be something you can hack somewhere.. don't they change name if you change the language settings of the system? | 16:25 |
| wols | Twiztid: maybe he cut power before it was shut down. basically a file system corruption the journal couldn't deal with | 16:25 |
| Rajko | corax, and this is my ifconfig http://codepad.org/xN6I1rad | 16:25 |
| nicofs | Slart, that's what I think... | 16:25 |
| TSCDan | I'm attempting to create an Ubuntu network sniffer box for both troubleshooting and traffic monitoring purposes (bandwidth, etc). What's the best way to configure the NIC to ensure that it does not transmit anything - just listens? Ubuntu Server 10.04 | 16:25 |
| martian | Slart: The only other change is that two external drives I have attached, are commented out in my fstab (so I could do some maint. after restart) | 16:25 |
| Rajko | corax, also, all my other services (like sshd, courier, postfix) also bind to the same ip as apache2 and mysql | 16:26 |
| Twiztid | wols: gotcha, k ill tell him to try to do full shutdowns... thx again!!! | 16:26 |
| martian | Slart: but, the drives are still attached and running. One of the external drives which WAS sdc is now sda | 16:26 |
| Slart | martian: hmm.. external usb drives? perhaps those are sda and sdb now? | 16:26 |
| Rajko | corax, and yet they dont fail to start | 16:26 |
| edbian | Rajko, Pardon me for eve's dropping but your config files are very interesting. Did you great those alias names yourself? What is venet0 ?? | 16:26 |
| martian | Slart: eSATA, but yeah | 16:26 |
| Rajko | edbian, this is a VPS, they are autogenerated by the manager | 16:26 |
| Slart | nicofs: let me google around a bit.. see if I can find something | 16:26 |
| corax | Rajko: I took a look at your "interfaces"-file ... which has 127.0.0.1 set to a non-loop device ... I'm not sure that valid. | 16:27 |
| Slart | martian: you could perhaps change the order of the drives in your bios settings.. but it's entirely possible that you're stuck with what you've got now.. any specific reason you need to use the sdX names? | 16:27 |
| edbian | Rajko, How is a virtual private server different than a Virtual Machine in general? I've never seen any computer with venet autogenerated? What is a venet? | 16:27 |
| Rajko | virtual ethernet | 16:27 |
| corax | Rajko: (sshd run on all interfaces, the rest mostly bind to domain-names) | 16:28 |
| martian | Slart: No reason; just fear that... somehow it would mess things up I guess :) | 16:28 |
| edbian | Rajko, Thanks | 16:28 |
| Keithamus | Anyone here speak french? | 16:28 |
| edbian | Rajko, I get it now. | 16:28 |
| Pici | !fr | Keithamus | 16:28 |
| ubottu | Keithamus: Ce canal est en anglais uniquement. Si vous avez besoin d'aide ou voulez discuter en francais, merci de rejoindre #ubuntu-fr, ou #ubuntu-qc. Merci. | 16:28 |
| Keithamus | Lol Pici, I'm not french - let me elaborate: I just need a little hand translating a phrase into french, just wondered if anyone spoke it | 16:28 |
| Slart | martian: well.. as long as you use uuids in your fstab it should be ok.. I think grub will handle it gracefully as well.. but that's about the only software I would worry about | 16:28 |
| Rajko | corax, all of mine listen only on specific interfaces, this is netstat -l http://codepad.org/me2G2WLo , they either listen on localhost or one of my global ips | 16:29 |
| Pici | Keithamus: Try #ubuntu-offtopic, or ##french then | 16:29 |
| Keithamus | yeah thanks Pici | 16:29 |
| martian | Slart: would you happen to know what I may wish to look up to learn how to mount the external drives by UUID as well? it seems like a cleaner way of doing the job. | 16:29 |
| oscar408 | my users for a few boxes are using public keys for ssh auth and I am playing with nx | 16:30 |
| corax | Rajko: yes...thought so :-) | 16:30 |
| oscar408 | anyone have a good reference for getting their existing keys mapped to the nxclient app? | 16:30 |
| Slart | martian: if you look at your fstab file it should use uuids already.. it's basically just replacing /dev/sda with UUID="lots and lots of numbers" | 16:30 |
| oscar408 | the only keys are for the server nx account | 16:31 |
| corax | Rajko: (I would start by removing the 127.0.0.1 from the "interfaces"-file ...and test from there) | 16:31 |
| Slart | martian: here's what my fstab looks like http://pastebin.com/aF5kzr1g | 16:31 |
| corax | does anyone know how to get IMAP4 to work in Evolution ... so messages with attachments or embedded images can be retrieved ? | 16:31 |
| oscar408 | and the doc / google hits discuss the properties for changing ssh pub keys for the nx server | 16:31 |
| martian | Slart: Yeah, the main drive (the raid array) is already mounted via uuid, but I though it may be good to also mount the eSATA drives by uuid so as to avoid any future confusion like this | 16:31 |
| Galerien | errr... guys, I have a file with a number on the beginning of each line, from 2 to 960... anyone knows a way to delete them? | 16:32 |
| guest2 | my firefox quits frequently with segmentation error.....i have tried re installation.... | 16:32 |
| Slart | martian: just try adding them to your fstab.. then they will use those settings automatically.. I think esata supports mounting by uuid | 16:32 |
| erUSUL | Galerien: and after that number? a space allways ? | 16:32 |
| martian | Slart: great. Thanks a bunch! | 16:32 |

| cpuTorture | hi, can 9.10 be upgraded to 10.04 from the desktop install cd without killing current setup? | 16:39 |
| nicoX | Fuck Youuuuu | 16:39 |
| greezmunkey | Galerien: that almost looks like line munbers, like you parsed a script file into a directory somehow, and the system interpreted that line by line and created files for each. If they are files in a directory, what are the file lengths? Sizes? | 16:39 |
| AaronMT | Hello where can I download 7.04? | 16:39 |
| edbian | cpuTorture, Not from the CD. But you can install 9.10 on your system using that CD and then upgrade that install. | 16:40 |
| Galerien | greezmunkey: that's line numbers yes.... I don't know how to remove them and I don't have the source anymore... just that file | 16:40 |
| edbian | cpuTorture, But I recommend you just burn the 10.04 CD because when you upgrade the 9.10 install it downloads the whole damn 10.04 anyway. | 16:40 |
| edbian | AaronMT, That's from 2007. Don't you want the latest version? 10.04 ? | 16:40 |
| cpuTorture | edbian, thanks :) I already have 9.10 on this machine, but don't want to kill it off, I could do a network upgrade, but then the next time I want to install I still have to download a gig of data | 16:40 |
| AaronMT | No I need 7.04 | 16:41 |
| greezmunkey | Galerien: that paste, was that a directory listing? | 16:41 |

| mbeierl | How do I stop the Indicator Applet from stealing the Meta-M shortcut? I want to assign it to compiz, but indicator keeps taking over the event! | 16:43 |
| erUSUL | Galerien: grep -E '^[0-9]+$' file > file.new | 16:43 |
| MikeH | either that or snmpd under 10.4 doesn't do anything :/ | 16:43 |
| Adys | My laptop doesn't boot since i installed new kernel, neither using the old kernel not recovery mode. It hangs after /scripts/init-bottom... done. I just ran fsck from a live cd, still no luck. Any idea? | 16:43 |
| erUSUL | Galerien: that will work better | 16:43 |
| edbian | MikeH, To remove the config files for it (that are located in /etc) you need to purge the package. sudo apt-get purge snmpd (not sure of the package name). Then install it, sudo apt-get install <whateverItIS> | 16:43 |
| dominicdinada | how to make xampp autostart with the system ? | 16:43 |

| bhawna | hi, m a noob, my /etc/fstab has this entry but I can not create a folder in the mounted drive -> /dev/sda1 /media/sda1 vfat defaults,users,exec 0 0 | 16:44 |
| edbian | dominicdinada, Do you want it to start after you log in or when the system boots? | 16:44 |
| edbian | cpuTorture, IDK, never tried it. | 16:44 |
| edbian | bhawna, Do you have a /media/sda1 folder? | 16:45 |
| SpeelExenium | Allo gents. | 16:45 |
| edbian | dominicdinada, (after you log in is much easier) | 16:45 |
| bhawna | yes | 16:45 |

| Galerien | erUSUL: it's has exactly the same result, thanks :D | 16:45 |
| corax | greezmunkey: no...just regular IMAP (not MAPI :-) ) | 16:45 |
| Hotsp0t | Hey guys! :) - Is this the place where i can fire off a question or two? | 16:46 |
| bhawna | edbian: I have winxp/ubuntu on same system, I want to store my data on /media/sda1 which is in fact a c drive of my windows partition | 16:46 |
| edbian | dominicdinada, First step, create a bash script that runs the program for you. All it is is a text file that has #!/bin/sh on the first lane (#!/bin/bash to be bash specific) and your various commands on the lines that follow. Create that file and mark it executable and run it to make sure it works | 16:46 |
| erUSUL | Hotsp0t: sure | 16:46 |
| edbian | bhawna, Ok, in linux do you have a folder in /media called sda1 ?? in other words a /media/sda1 ? | 16:46 |
| dominicdinada | edbian: ok I will google examples or someone who has already done this | 16:47 |
| edbian | s/lane/line | 16:47 |
| SpeelExenium | So here I am trying to format a file system on one of my raid drives to ext4, but, unfortunately, every time I use sudo mke2fs -t ext4 /dev/isw_dacddfbefe_Speels1 ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo mke2fs -t ext4 /dev/isw_dacddfbefe_Speels1 mke2fs 1.41.11 (14-Mar-2010) Could not stat /dev/isw_dacddfbefe_Speels1 --- No such file or directory | 16:47 |
| edbian | dominicdinada, Sure, you can also pastebin the script once you have it written and I can double check. Once you have the script I'll teach you how to make it run at start-up. What app is this btw ?? | 16:47 |
| SpeelExenium | I get that error. :( | 16:47 |
| bhawna | edbian: yes, as I told you, /media/sda1 folder exists and my cdrive is mounted here (in sda1 folder) | 16:47 |
| Hotsp0t | erUSUL: cool :D | 16:47 |
| dominicdinada | edbain apachefriends lampp package | 16:48 |
| edbian | bhawna, But you can't edit anything on the drive, is that right? | 16:48 |
| SpeelExenium | Halp? ;_; | 16:48 |
| edbian | dominicdinada, What? | 16:48 |
| iratik | Where can I find an intro to administering a 10.04 server .. I have been running an 8.04 server for 3 years .. and 6.04 before that .. This new version seems to have some new tricks .. many of which i'm not familiar with .. Is there a wiki page about everything i need to be aware of .. e.g. what is upstart .. why does start <service> not work.. but "service <service> start" work? and so on.. | 16:48 |
| Ubuntor | Alright. Online and with the new UNR 10.04 installed. | 16:48 |
| Ubuntor | Thanks guys for your tips. | 16:49 |
| wildbat | any tips for gnome application automation like mouse mouse/click similation like autoit in window? | 16:49 |
| dominicdinada | edbian: Apachefriends Xampp/lampp package its apache.mysql,php | 16:49 |
| bhawna | edbian: yes, even though I think I have set right permission, /etc/fstab shows this -> /dev/sda1 /media/sda1 vfat defaults,users,exec 0 0 | 16:49 |
| SpeelExenium | :3? | 16:49 |
| edbian | dominicdinada, Is that what you're trying to run at start-up? Apache already starts up automatically | 16:49 |
| dominicdinada | edbian: in order to start the package i shell out and sudo /opt/lampp/lampp start | 16:49 |
| blue_anna | how can I add a background to the text under the desktop icons? like on the live CD, or just normally when one is selected? | 16:50 |
| bhawna | dominicdinada: you can sudo apt-get install apache php5* mysql* to setup a lamp server | 16:50 |
| dominicdinada | edbian: not this packeage you need to manually start it each time.. | 16:50 |
| edbian | bhawna, Here is the trick. Unmount the drive (umount /dev/sda1 should do it) and check the file permissions on the folder /media/sda1. Make sure you can read/write to that folder. Do you know how to read linux file permissions? | 16:50 |
| dominicdinada | bhawna: i just got rid of that crappy package for Dev purposes | 16:50 |
| bhawna | edbian: let me check it | 16:50 |
| edbian | dominicdinada, Ok, whatever. Write the script and I'll check it. | 16:50 |
| Hotsp0t | I'm trying to install the Netbook Edition on my friend's Asus eee Pc 900. The problem is that it doesn't boot from usb, only SD, which I don't have. I have a MacBook running OS X 10.6.3 and a ethernet cable. | 16:50 |
| edbian | bhawna, It has to be unmounted. | 16:50 |
| bhawna | I unmounted it and here is the ls output -> drwxr-xr-x 9 bhawna bhawna 16384 1970-01-01 05:30 sda1 | 16:51 |
| * SpeelExenium sighs, "This channel is too busy. :/" | 16:51 | |
| bhawna | no sorry edbian sda1 is owned by root | 16:51 |
| edbian | bhawna, It says in ls that it's owned by you? | 16:52 |
| blue_anna | I want an effect like this http://img96.imageshack.us/i/unabordaalacarpeta.jpg/ | 16:52 |
| SpeelExenium | I'll catch you folks later. | 16:52 |
| SpeelExenium | ;3 | 16:52 |
| MikeH | Anyone here monitor their local machines network interfaces with SNMP? | 16:52 |
| bhawna | edbian: no, the folder is owned by root :( I checked after unmouting | 16:52 |
| edbian | bhawna, Show me the permissions after unmounting then | 16:53 |
| bhawna | edbian: here is the ls output -> drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 2009-12-23 20:22 sda1 | 16:53 |
| Hotsp0t | I can see that the eee PC can boot RPL and PXE... Can i setup a PXE/RPL server on leopard, mount the Ubuntu image, and boot it on the eee Pc over network? | 16:53 |
| edbian | bhawna, Make it so you own it! :) sudo chown bhawna:root sda1 | 16:54 |
| Hotsp0t | i see that this is turning into a OS X question now :S | 16:54 |
| edbian | bhawna, :P | 16:54 |
| edbian | Hotsp0t, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation | 16:54 |
| edbian | Hotsp0t, There are A LOT of ways to install Ubuntu | 16:54 |
| dominicdinada | edbian: http://www.apachefriends.org/en/faq-xampp-linux.html#fsl read topic #3 | 16:54 |
| Hotsp0t | edbian: great, i'll look into it :D | 16:55 |
| bhawna | well, I have another laptop where the filesystem is ntfs but all folders under /media is owned by root and non root users can read and write into /media folders | 16:55 |
| bhawna | edbian: ^ | 16:55 |
| edbian | bhawna, windows xp NTFS does not support file permissions so when linux mounts it it just cascades the root folder's permissions throughout. If you own the folder you mount it in you will own the entire tree underneath. Make sense? | 16:56 |
| abstrakt | is "-alternate" the only version of ubuntustudio that exists? or is there a non "-alternate" ISO? | 16:56 |
| === mouse is now known as rig0rmortis | ||
| bhawna | edbian: it does, I use ntfs-3g on other machine | 16:56 |
| edbian | bhawna, If it's vista / windows 7, those do support permissions and you have to be the right user. However that's easy enough, just become root. | 16:56 |
| edbian | bhawna, It does what? What is it? | 16:57 |
| macanud0 | #oracle | 16:57 |
| bhawna | edbian: I understand what you are saying, here is the scenario, I have two laptops, both dual boot, xp+ubuntu, one is ntfs and another is vfat, the problem is that the vfat one is not allowing me(no root user) to write/exec in mounted drives | 16:58 |
| dominicdinada | edbian: which one should i use rc.5 ? | 16:59 |
| dominicdinada | rc5.d | 16:59 |
| edbian | bhawna, Low level it actually goes by user id number. Perhaps vfat has a "root" account (I'm not entirely sure) and perhaps the UID is different than the stock linux "0" All you really have to do is match the UID number with some user to write to that drive. Make sense? | 16:59 |
| NeedGSHelp | someone here who can help me with ghostscript and converting pdf files to tiff? | 16:59 |
| edbian | dominicdinada, rc2.d is the standard. Check your runlevel with "sudo runlevel" | 17:00 |
| ZenMasta | I tried to isntall some packages but got an error about not locating the files or generate a list f packages http://pastie.org/995051 | 17:00 |
| === steffan is now known as Guest24592 | ||
| edbian | dominicdinada, 0 is halt, 6 is reboot, 1 is single user mode, 2 - 5 are multi-user but most system use 2 and 3 - 5 go unused | 17:00 |
| dominicdinada | edbian: yes it is 2 did you check that link i sent ? | 17:00 |
| edbian | dominicdinada, (debian and ubuntu both use 2) | 17:00 |
| erUSUL | !runlevels | 17:00 |
| ubottu | In Ubuntu all runlevels except 0,1 and 6 are by default equal. Also keep in mind that Ubuntu now uses !Upstart instead of System V init so there is normally no /etc/inittab. | 17:00 |
| edbian | dominicdinada, I saw it. | 17:00 |
| dominicdinada | edbian: guess i dont get to grab out my old bash books :D | 17:01 |
| blue_anna | how can I add a background to the text under the desktop icons? like on the live CD, or just normally when one is selected? | 17:01 |
| edbian | dominicdinada, Your script is not very involved :( | 17:01 |
| ManDay | My WIFI Stick is not supported by Ubuntu and is very slow (awfully slow) at transmitting data - why? | 17:02 |
| bhawna | edbian: thanks, I just chmoded the /media/* to 777, I will reboot and check | 17:02 |
| acicula | ManDay, not supported as in you are using the ndiswrapper driver? | 17:02 |
| dominicdinada | edbian: but it is saying either /etc/init.d/rc2.d or /etc/rc2.d gah which one should i use with lucid | 17:02 |
| ManDay | acicula, how do I find out? (sry, forgot) | 17:02 |
| edbian | ManDay, Because the people that made your USB stick only care about providing a stick that works with windows. Some nicer people said, hey I like this stick but I want to use it in linux so they started to write a driver for it but it isn't the best because they didn't invent the stick. | 17:03 |
| acicula | ManDay, you said its not supported? | 17:03 |
| edbian | bhawna, ha ha, a little overkill but that should do it. | 17:03 |
| acicula | but it still works? | 17:03 |
| acicula | ManDay, if you dont know then ndiswrapper is not loaded i think | 17:03 |
| dominicdinada | ManDay: what brand/model is it | 17:03 |
| acicula | since you'd have to explicitly configure ubuntu to load it | 17:03 |
| rig0rmortis | Hello, I am having some issues using apt behind an ISP proxy. In short, when downloading updates (or new packages) using apt, the downloads sometimes go very slowly, and often timeout. Many of the downloads that do come down fail with a "Hash sum mismatch" error. Does anyone have any ideas about how I might work around this? | 17:03 |
| dominicdinada | !wifi | manday | 17:03 |
| ubottu | manday: Wireless documentation, including how-to guides and troubleshooting information, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 17:03 |
| ManDay | edbian, the people "that made my USB stick" made a piece of hardware - the only thing you can "blame" them for if you want is not having coded a driver for linux and provided it to canonical | 17:03 |
| edbian | dominicdinada, No idea. It's the new upstart, makes things confusing. Both of them? :P You could also use: "sudo update-rc.d" | 17:03 |
| edbian | ManDay, That's exactly what I blame them for. That's what I explained to you. | 17:04 |
| dominicdinada | edbian: awww crap something is gonna go wrong... | 17:04 |
| ManDay | acicula, it's not supported as in not on the list of supported wifi sticks | 17:04 |
| erUSUL | !xammp | 17:04 |
| cdubya | we have an older dell dimension 2400 that I am having video issues with...it randomly flakes out and flashes a bunch of vertical bars on screen and becomes unresponsive at that point. I wanted to set this machine up to use mysql and a few other things on it, but wasn't sure if I'd run into the same issue installing ubuntu server. Thoughts? | 17:04 |
| dominicdinada | !lamp | 17:04 |
| ubottu | LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+) | 17:04 |
| acicula | ManDay, ah like so, the list is not exhaustive | 17:04 |
| ManDay | dominicdinada, consider it no name at all | 17:04 |
| acicula | ManDay, can you pastebin the output from lspci? | 17:04 |
| edbian | dominicdinada, ha ha. | 17:04 |
| acicula | also you say it is slow, does that mean you do have a network connection? | 17:05 |
| ManDay | Yes I do. | 17:05 |
| ManDay | But its sloooooow | 17:05 |
| dominicdinada | ManDay: well then you will have to grab the chipset from grep | 17:05 |
| ManDay | like hell | 17:05 |

| acicula | distance to access point? | 17:05 |
| ManDay | 5 meters | 17:06 |
| edbian | ManDay, again, the stick wasn't designed for linux. Complaining it is slow is like taking your ferrari off-road and asking why you can't reach 200 mph | 17:06 |
| bhawna | edbian: I am back, it seems that I need to do something else | 17:06 |

| Tricia | er, sorry. | 17:14 |
| Tricia | wols: how? | 17:14 |
| ociredeF | something like grep -i <?php include("http://misitioweb.html"); ?> | ed whatever | 17:14 |
| ManDay | acicula, how do i find out which driver it currently uses? | 17:14 |
| geneller | dominicdinada: lucid is a ubuntu version? | 17:14 |
| Dr_Willis | ociredeF: use sed/awk and or perl for such tasks. | 17:14 |
| dominicdinada | ociredeF: "i want to edit some text" for text files you can use nano or gedit. if they are conf or system files. use sudo nano "pathtofile/filename" | 17:14 |
| acicula | ManDay, the kernel only has one driver for RT2571WF, but wouldnt know how its called | 17:14 |
| ociredeF | Dr_Willis I am not much of a coder | 17:14 |
| ManDay | acicula, i didnt expect you to know. how do i find out on my own? | 17:15 |
| Dr_Willis | ociredeF: guess you learn/look for examples. or use a text editor. | 17:15 |
| dominicdinada | geneller: lucid is 10.04 the newest version and in Lucid to restart samba it is smbd restart | 17:15 |
| infid | ociredeF: i'd be careful with lines like that especially because php has echo statements and you could end up echo something and redirecting it with > | 17:15 |
| wols | Tricia: http://www.cyberciti.biz/ref/apt-dpkg-ref.html | 17:15 |
| Tricia | wols: thanks | 17:15 |
| wols | ociredeF: sed and awk | 17:15 |
| ociredeF | infid: ok so I should \ every > | 17:15 |
| acicula | ManDay, lsmod | grep fw, does that give you a module? | 17:15 |
| Ubuntor | Where did Hotspot go? I hope it worked for him! | 17:15 |
| Dr_Willis | ociredeF: i definatly recall seeing specific examples of sed/awk/perl that worked with html files as i was googling around last week | 17:15 |
| ManDay | thanks ill try acicula | 17:16 |
| Ubuntor | my solution even. | 17:16 |
| wols | Ubuntor: he says thanks. it did work. scroll up | 17:16 |
| ManDay | acicula, no, but ill keep looking through lsmod | 17:16 |
| Ubuntor | wols: i rebooted so can't scroll up. | 17:16 |
| Ubuntor | Thanks | 17:16 |
| ManDay | acicula, rt2x00usb 11260 2 rt73usb,rt2500usb | 17:16 |
| ManDay | rt2x00lib 32133 3 rt73usb,rt2500usb,rt2x00usb | 17:16 |
| acicula | ManDay, rt2500usb or rt73usb ? | 17:16 |
| ManDay | rt2500usb 19643 0 | 17:17 |
| acicula | yeah those | 17:17 |
| ManDay | hm, so if the kernel has mods loaded for that chipset why does it not work? are the drivers not good en ough? | 17:17 |
| acicula | looks like that particular wireless chip is supported and has been for awhile by the kernel | 17:17 |
| geneller | dominicdinada: what can i do with samba ? | 17:18 |
| simontol | Hi is there any way I could recover/undelete files on a ext4 filesystem? | 17:18 |
| irv | when trying to boot 10.04 NBR on an acer aspire-one, start-ups freeze at the following point: http://paste.ubuntu.com/446135/ this happens approximately 9 in 10 boots with the 10th being successful. if anyone has any insight into why it may be halting at this point most of the time, or further diagnostics I can try (I have already ran a hardware test/memtest and SMART check) and it does this regardless of which kernel I am booting -21 or -22 | 17:18 |
| wols | geneller: file sharing with windows | 17:19 |
| acicula | ManDay, dunno really, the chip's had a module in the kernel for years, and ralink typically works well, so no clue as to why you are experiencing problems with your particular stick | 17:19 |
| geneller | hi wols, mmm. what i'm trying is to setup my home theater | 17:19 |
| wols | irv: with different kernel, I meant different kernel versios. 2.6.30 or 2.6.34 etc | 17:20 |
| wols | acicula: ralink works anything but :) | 17:20 |
| irv | wols: oops, any idea on how to install an older version? or is there a specific older version you would recommend me trying? | 17:20 |
| acicula | wols, really? must've had a decent chip then, i thought they actively developed wireless drivers? | 17:21 |
| acicula | oh well :/ | 17:21 |
| === sisu_math is now known as moomlyn | ||
| geneller | my mother board reuses plug connectors, microphone can be used to as a sound output | 17:21 |
| wols | irv: try a newer one frommaverick. also older ones of course. the<'re downloadable from packages.ubuntu.com. install with dpkg | 17:21 |
| dominicdinada | geneller: ummm share folders with windows users lol | 17:21 |
| kaioken | I am using huwaei c2900i phone .I am not able to access internet using it .Is this some bug or do I need some driver for it? | 17:22 |
| wols | irv: this is totally unsupported but it doesn't hurt to try. you can uninstall the kernels afterward | 17:22 |
| acicula | kaioken, plugging it in via usb or bluetooth? | 17:22 |
| cdubya | if video on ubuntu desktop 10.04 flaked out, should I expect the same thing from an install of ubuntu server? I know I read some issues with Intel video and I wasn't sure if this was directly related, but if installing server would resolve the issue, I can do that. | 17:22 |
| kaioken | acicula:via usb | 17:22 |
| wols | cdubya: won' help | 17:23 |
| acicula | and doesnt show in nm-applet? | 17:23 |
| iceroot | cdubya: the server is the same as the desktop withut gui and with a pae kernel | 17:23 |
| Dr_Willis | cdubya: the 'server' uses text mode. so if you dont need a desktop gui.. | 17:23 |
| dominicdinada | geneller: are you trying to share with windows users ? | 17:23 |
| kaioken | acicula:http://pastebin.com/8DYfgmbW | 17:24 |
| cdubya | I don't have to have a gui, I just don't want the system wacking out because for whatever reason the video isn't playing nice..... | 17:24 |
| geneller | dominicdinada: i'm trying to setup my home theater that sound 6 satellites | 17:24 |
| kaioken | this is the result of messages | 17:24 |
| Dr_Willis | cdubya: with the server and text/console only - theres shouldent be an issue with video. since its just using the consoles. | 17:24 |
| dominicdinada | geneller: i have not done this but wouldnt you want to use Medibuntu ? it is geared towards what you are trying to do | 17:24 |
| Dr_Willis | cdubya: or just dont start up X on the desktop install you got | 17:24 |
| acicula | kaioken, seems it at least detects there's a modem connected | 17:25 |
| geneller | dominicdinada: my mother board reuses plug connectors, microphone can be used to as a sound output too, | 17:25 |
| geneller | thats my problem | 17:25 |
| Dr_Willis | geneller: i was thinkiign that 'jackd' helped configure those multi-function plugs | 17:25 |
| cdubya | Dr_Willis, that's what I thought, but wasn't sure. If I can install server that will be ok as long as the system's integrity isn't messed up by video issues. I'd like to be able to use ubuntu, but I'm hung in the way of availability of machines and this one is one I can use, so if it won't work I'll have to look elsewhere. | 17:26 |
| wise_crypt | kaioken: install wvdial first | 17:26 |
| dominicdinada | geneller: if it does such things in the MB bios dont you have options to configure it | 17:26 |
| wise_crypt | kaioken: sudo apt-get wvdial | 17:26 |
| Machtin | any way to get mplayerplug-in into the repos? | 17:26 |
| kaioken | wise_crypt:It is installed | 17:26 |
| jfalvarez | hello, it's there some guide to create deb packages for java applications? | 17:26 |
| geneller | in windows i did it installing drivers, so i got config options | 17:27 |
| wise_crypt | kaioken: sudo wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf | 17:27 |
| pardavila_ | hi, i've just read /var/log/daemon.log and I found that I cannot connect to the wifi since I have the next problem: "wpa_supplicant Association request to the driver failed", does anybody know how to solve this? | 17:27 |
| dominicdinada | geneller: and there are no linux drivers on your mb cd ? | 17:27 |
| Dr_Willis | cdubya: you could run a server without a monitor if you wanted. just ssh in | 17:27 |
| Dr_Willis | cdubya: and its some specific intel video chipsets that have some issues. theres proberly a huge forum thread or 100 on the topic. | 17:28 |
| dbarnett | Hey, After an update I'm having video problems (freezing when I connect external monitor) Downgrading the kernel didn't help, I'm trying to find documentation on where to find older versions of the intel-video drivers. Anyone have a link or advice? | 17:28 |
| dbarnett | cdubya: Looks like I may be here for the same thing | 17:28 |
| kaioken | wise_crypt:Found a modem on /dev/ttyUSB0. | 17:28 |

| geneller | dominicdinada: no, but ubuntu already recognized mb | 17:29 |
| cdubya | Dr_Willis, yeah, I thought of that...had it setup before and then found out the hard way trying to use tasksel remove and it hammered up the system pretty good.....thus the reinstall. | 17:29 |
| Akiraa | Isn't there a menu from where I can manually select from a list of printers? i.e. "add new printer" like in Windows | 17:29 |
| wise_crypt | kaioken: and then gksudo gedit /etc/wvdial.conf change to your phone setting | 17:30 |

| Maletor | How can I enable composite with my dual monitor - Apple Cinema display - I'm using a MacBook with 10.4 and latest Nvidia Drivers. Everything works save for composite (and compiz). | 17:31 |
| Dr_Willis | Maletor: ive had compiz work for me on my 2 monitor setup using nvidia and twinview. | 17:31 |
| Maletor | Also, I tried Section "Extensions" -> Options Composite Enable EndSection | 17:31 |
| Dr_Willis | Maletor: you did install the nvidia drivers? | 17:31 |
| Art1 | can someone help me,i have problems trying to conect to paralel port in vmware in Ubuntu host,i am trying to conect to my printer with paralel port but i got this mesage http://paste.ubuntu.com/446195/ .can someone help me | 17:31 |
| kaioken | wise_crypt:http://pastebin.com/FWE7cHYH | 17:32 |
| Maletor | Dr_Willis: yes - i'm not using twinview - i need it to extend my desktop | 17:32 |
| rig0rmortis | I am having some issues using apt behind an ISP proxy. In short, when downloading updates (or new packages) using apt, the downloads sometimes go very slowly, and often timeout. Many of the downloads that do come down fail with a "Hash sum mismatch" error. Does anyone have any ideas about how I might work around this? | 17:32 |
| kaioken | wise_crypt:whate next? | 17:32 |
| frxstrem | is it possible to upgrade the iPhone OS on an iPhone-like device inside Ubuntu, or will I need Windows/OS X for that? | 17:32 |

| ManDay | maybe ill just get a new stick :) | 17:33 |
| ManDay | (one which is officially supported) | 17:33 |
| Slart | frxstrem: don't you need itunes to do that? you might get away with using a vm | 17:33 |
| Dr_Willis | Maletor: i use twinview to have a single very wide desktop...... thats 'extended' by my definition | 17:33 |
| Izinucs | How do I determine what video driver is currently being used on my nvidia card? | 17:33 |
| Akiraa | Slart: http://img266.imageshack.us/f/36894682.jpg/ -- I was looking at the "Printing" menu, but there is no option to "add a new printer" from a pre-existing list | 17:33 |
| frxstrem | Slart: no, I can't (I've tried it; didn't work) | 17:33 |
| cdubya | dbarnett, yeah, I should have left well enough alone....:-) | 17:33 |
| wise_crypt | kaioken: and then gksudo gedit /etc/wvdial.conf change to your phone setting | 17:33 |
| Maletor | Dr_Willis: So then what is this Xinerama option I have checked? | 17:33 |
| apo_lap | hi. what does: "Use this GPS device for Geolocation services" do? | 17:33 |
| apo_lap | does not work with gpsd without configuring rfcomm. (gpsbleutooth mouse) | 17:33 |
| Dr_Willis | Maletor: twinview is ximerama+more features | 17:34 |
| frxstrem | also, if I would have to install Windows, is there a way to avoid having to repair GRUB after installing it? | 17:34 |
| Maletor | Dr_Willis: hot damn | 17:34 |
| Dr_Willis | Maletor: i never need to use xinerams. i alsayw use twinview | 17:34 |
| Maletor | Dr_Willis: here's to hoping this doesn't break everything as i'm at work | 17:34 |
| Dr_Willis | Maletor: enable twinview. save the xorg.conf, restart x, (or reboot) | 17:34 |
| Maletor | Dr_Willis: thanks | 17:34 |
| Dr_Willis | Maletor: worse case.. remove the xorg.conf it made.. or backup the one ya got now. | 17:35 |
| Slart | Akiraa: hmm.. is the printer connected to the computer? | 17:35 |

| wise_crypt | kaioken: you have to change Phone = [your phone dialin number] username = [the user name given by your phone provider] password = [the password] then save it after than run sudo wvdial & | 17:35 |
| kaioken | wise_crypt:I edited wvdial.conf with the required information.Now How to connect? | 17:35 |
| Dr_Willis | geneller: its some fancy tool to controll audio stuff. Ive never needed it. but others use it | 17:36 |
| Maletor | Dr_Willis: Show I enable make primary display? | 17:36 |
| Akiraa | Slart: I was wondering if there is a preexisting list so I can go buy a printer which I will know 100% that is supported. Need something around 16ppm laser | 17:36 |
| Dr_Willis | Maletor: i make the display i want GDM to show up on the primary | 17:36 |
| wise_crypt | kaioken: run sudo wvdial & | 17:36 |
| Slart | Akiraa: ohh.. now why didn't you ask that from the start =) check linuxprinting.org, they have long lists with manufacturers and what works and what doesn't | 17:36 |
| Dr_Willis | Akiraa: i got a nice little brother laser printer for $100 over the weekend sales. :) | 17:36 |
| geneller | mm, u know how can i use it ? | 17:36 |
| UnoDos | hello | 17:36 |
| Akiraa | Is it completely hopeless to buy GDI printers for linux printing? | 17:37 |
| Dr_Willis | Akiraa: not sure how fast it is however. :) | 17:37 |
| UnoDos | exit | 17:37 |
| Dr_Willis | Akiraa: it pays to research your printers. | 17:37 |
| Izinucs | Dr_Willis: I've had great luck with my brother MFC 7440n | 17:37 |
| sohail | howcome ubuntu.com recommends 32-bit | 17:37 |
| Slart | Akiraa: and just a bit of a warning.. just because there exists a driver for it doesn't mean it works 100% | 17:37 |
| Dr_Willis | Akiraa: and set a budget. :) | 17:37 |
| sohail | for desktop | 17:37 |
| Slart | sohail: no idea.. I don't understand it either | 17:37 |
| Slart | sohail: I've been using 64bit for a couple of years.. no problems | 17:38 |
| Dr_Willis | sohail: because the page that says that is a bit out of date, and overly paranoid. | 17:38 |
| irv | does anyone know how i can install the 2.6.34 kernel from maverick using dpkg in ubuntu 10.04 | 17:38 |
| Akiraa | Slart: I guess I could bring along an ubuntu netbook for on-site compatibility tests | 17:38 |
| Dr_Willis | sohail: and many 'new' users dont even understand what 32 vs 64bit is. | 17:38 |
| Dr_Willis | sohail: so they say - when in doubt- go 32bit | 17:38 |
| Slart | Dr_Willis: out of date? it's on the main download page on ubuntu.com .. | 17:38 |
| Izinucs | How do I determine what video driver is currently being used on my nvidia card? | 17:38 |
| Dr_Willis | Slart: yes.. and theres bug reports about that badly worded statement on the page. | 17:38 |
| sohail | Dr_Willis: it's probably a when in doubt thing | 17:39 |
| kaioken | wise_crypt:http://pastebin.com/pFx4fUd2 this is the result of sudo wvdial | 17:39 |

| omry|work | just installed 10.04 (first Ubuntu installation). I can't find the sun java jdk package. is it in some extra repository or something I need to add to the sources.list? | 17:44 |
| FullFlannelJacke | jrib: From a launcher on AWN.. And, yeah, thats the problem. When i try to start it from regular menu it works. | 17:44 |
| Slart | !java | omry|work | 17:44 |
| ubottu | omry|work: To install a Java runtime on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java. For the Sun Java products and browser plugin, search for the sun-java6- packages in the !partner repository on Lucid (which must be enabled), or !multiverse repository on older releases. | 17:45 |
| jrib | FullFlannelJacke: how did you create the launcher? | 17:45 |
| jeward_ | I'd like to make a live USB install of 10.04, but be able to enable the b43 network device driver. Does anyone know how to replace the kernel on a Live install? | 17:45 |
| omry|work | ubuntu`, thanks. how do I enable the partners repo? | 17:45 |
| irv | !partners | 17:46 |
| Dr_Willis | jeward_: you can make a persistant save file on teh usb install and just 'install' the drivers | 17:46 |
| FullFlannelJacke | jrib: just copied the .desktop file to a directory and pointed my AWN stack to there. | 17:46 |
| Slart | !partner | 17:46 |
| ubottu | Canonical's partner repositories provide packages a location for software vendors to publish applications. The repo itself can be added by running this in a !terminal: « sudo add-apt-repository "deb http://archive.canonical.com/ $(lsb_release -sc) partner" » | 17:46 |
| irv | !partner | 17:46 |
| Dr_Willis | jeward_: i just did that for a nvidia+b43/sta based laptop | 17:46 |
| irv | yeah that one | 17:46 |
| jrib | FullFlannelJacke: pastebin said file | 17:46 |
| abuayyoub | h00k, it's a terminal based nzb/usenet program like hellanzb | 17:46 |
| abuayyoub | Anyone here fimular with a program called NZBGET? | 17:46 |
| jeward_ | Dr_Willis: I've made the persistent install, but when I install the b43 drivers, it fails because the kernel is on a read only filesystem? | 17:46 |
| jeward_ | Dr_Willis: You must know a secret I've missed. :) | 17:47 |
| Dr_Willis | jeward_: somthing is weird then. I just now installed the nvidia drivers and other drivers on this setip. How did you make the install? | 17:47 |
| Dr_Willis | jeward_: hasbe you installed any other packages? did you apt-get update, and apt-get upgrade? | 17:47 |
| jeward_ | Dr_Willis: Lucid Startup Disk Creator. | 17:47 |
| jeward_ | Dr_Willis: Is that the way you made yours? | 17:48 |
| Dr_Willis | Hmm.. let me try again. I just made this flash drive. got nvidia isntalled.. lets try the sta driver now.. | 17:48 |
| smik | iceroot: I installed it, says `not enough data available'. Does it require some time to setup? | 17:48 |
| Dr_Willis | jeward_: yep. just made one about 10 min ago | 17:48 |
| acicula | ManDay, supporting supported hardware is always good :) | 17:48 |
| jeward_ | Dr_Willis: I'll remake mine too. | 17:48 |
| og01 | any way i can restore all of /etc/apache2 to its defaults? | 17:48 |
| Dr_Willis | jeward_: you recall the package name for the b43? or have you tried the STA driver? | 17:49 |
| iceroot | smik: vnstat --help | 17:49 |
| ManDay | acicula, lol, isnt that a logical fallacy? | 17:49 |
| jeward_ | Dr_Willis: I don't remember exactly, but I can tell you in a few minutes. Will you be here a while? | 17:49 |
| ManDay | acicula, what about supporting yet supported hardware :P | 17:49 |
| iceroot | smik: dont have it installed so yo have to look for yourself, first you need to create a database using eth0 (or what you want to check) then you can always run vnstat to see the traffic by day, week, month or live | 17:49 |
| Dr_Willis | jeward_: just a few more min. its bed time | 17:50 |
| magn3ts | Is it possible to have an encrypted home partition in software RAID5? | 17:50 |
| smik | iceroot: I want to monitor ppp0 so created DB for that. Now I says that it doesn't have enough data. | 17:50 |
| cdubya | Dr_Willis, what's the easiest way to setup ssh with decent enough privs to be able to edit content for pages I want to publish on this machine for our local network, etc... | 17:50 |
| smik | iceroot: now it's wroking | 17:50 |
| emhs | Howdy, folks. Samba's fighting me somethin' fierce in this new version. Anyone have a tip as to how to get it to behave? I'm trying to share an external backup drive on my network. | 17:50 |
| iceroot | smik: great | 17:50 |
| smik | iceroot: thanks | 17:50 |
| acicula | ManDay, yet supported is supported, unsupported is not, but yeah its a chicken egg problem | 17:50 |
| jeward_ | Dr_Willis: I had not done aptitude update, do you think that's key? | 17:51 |
| og01 | is there a apt-get re-install or anything? | 17:51 |
| iceroot | smik: i am using something like that vnstat -w | mail -s "weekly traffic" foo@bar.de | 17:51 |
| acicula | og01, apt-get install --reinstall | 17:51 |
| irv | wols: trying kernel linux-image-2.6.34-1-686_2.6.34-1~experimental.2_i386.deb | 17:51 |
| og01 | acicula: thanks | 17:52 |
| smik | iceroot: I need to monitor daily traffic. Anyway, it seems that vnstat require sometime to update it's database | 17:52 |
| iceroot | smik: not really | 17:52 |
| iceroot | smik: its very fast here | 17:52 |
| og01 | acicula: hmm it didnt re-create /etc/apache2 | 17:52 |
| iceroot | smik: use vnstat -d to get daily traffic | 17:52 |
| og01 | acicula: when i reinstalled apache2 | 17:53 |
| smik | iceroot: yes, I checked by runing vnstat. It showed 160KB. I did a refresh on Facebook. Then did vnstat again | 17:53 |
| acicula | og01, you''ll have to purge the settings first | 17:53 |
| jeward_ | Dr_Willis: My understanding of a live USB install was that the kernel was immutable. | 17:53 |
| acicula | og01, apt-get remove --purge | 17:53 |
| smik | iceroot: it still says 160KB | 17:53 |
| timmillwood | Everyone waiting to see what Mr Jobs has to say? ;) | 17:53 |
| iceroot | smik: because your browser is caching | 17:53 |
| Dr_Willis | jeward_: ive updated kernels befor for them. I THINK.. but now im not sure.. | 17:54 |
| ubnuntu_giant | Hello, I'm trying to start gnome-terminal. The command I have to start the terminal is "screen -x." Therefore, the terminal does not start and I have no other profiles in gnome-terminal. Anyone have a solution? thanks. | 17:54 |
| Dr_Willis | jeward_: ive been toying with 'normal' installs to flash drives.. so im not sure any more | 17:54 |
| acicula | timmillwood, err not really, is there some apple event? best discussed in -offtopic ? | 17:54 |
| smik | iceroot: Oh c'mon, it sure would have transfered at least a KB | 17:54 |
| jeward_ | Dr_Willis: Well, if you have a USB live install with b43, then you've done it! | 17:54 |
| timmillwood | acicula: ;) | 17:54 |
| iceroot | smik: why? if everything is cached | 17:54 |
| Dr_Willis | jeward_: i am trying now.. but this is an older 9.10 flash setup. tryint the sta driver, will try b43 also | 17:54 |
| irv | anyone know how to install an older kenel than 2.6.32 on the netbook version | 17:55 |
| smik | iceroot: let me do Ctrl+Shift+R | 17:55 |
| jeward_ | Dr_Willis: I appreciate it! | 17:55 |
| Dr_Willis | jeward_: i was able to install the nvidia drivers.. so im not sure why the b43 would be any different | 17:55 |
| smik | iceroot: yes you are correct | 17:55 |
| jrib | og01: apache2 is not the correct package. « dpkg -S /etc/apache2/apache2.conf » for example will reveal the truth to you | 17:55 |
| * jeward_ crosses his fingers. | 17:55 | |
| iceroot | smik: of course i am correct | 17:55 |
| Dr_Willis | jeward_: except my save file just ran out of space.. :) doh! | 17:55 |
| jeward_ | :) | 17:55 |
| iceroot | smik: :) | 17:55 |
| ubnuntu_giant | Ah, gconf-editor, you're my friend. :) | 17:55 |
| Dr_Willis | jeward_: this (ubuntu variant) i got going - dosent seem to be smart about uising the save file. | 17:56 |
| Dr_Willis | jeward_: so i cant really test it. | 17:56 |
| og01 | jrib: thanks | 17:56 |
| jeward_ | Dr_Willis: Darn. I'll try mine again. | 17:56 |

| Izinucs | Slart: trying to fix my upgrade from 9.10 to 10.04. I had the binary nvidia driver loaded during the upgrade and have been able to reinstall it once but need to do it again after uninstalling the ubuntu nvidia bits that conflict.. but issuing a sudo service gdm stop from TTY2 says "stop: Unknown instance:" yet the installer won't run because it thinks X is still running.. any help? | 18:04 |

| shaw1337 | <infid>may be u kept a network password | 18:08 |
| Dr_Willis | infid: you can set up shared printers to allow anyone to print - so no password is needed | 18:08 |

| infid | Dr_Willis: yes i do have identical named users/passwords on both | 18:09 |

I was having errors installing the latest trying to fix the upgrade then resorted to installing the same version driver which loaded or rather installed fine from the looks of it.. but I didn't test it..

| Dr_Willis | vic20gmr_[lucid]: use dd and the proper bs and count options | 18:14 |
| salil | Dr_Willis: Is that a GPU instruction? Or does compiz have to scan the buffer inverting R, G, B values to do it? | 18:15 |
| infid | Dr_Willis: i dont see any option to make it so they dont have to enter their password. maybe you jsut did the 'remember password' thing | 18:15 |

| accipter | So I have a very strange issue. I was sending a subversion commit to my ubuntu box last week when it dropped the network connection and saved no logs during that time. I had someone with access press the spacebar on the keyboard attached the headless box, and everything is back up. How do I figure out what happened? This has happened in the past when I was sending lots of data over samba. | 18:16 |

| rig0rmortis | My network card (eth0) is not coming up automatically when I boot my computer. If I run dhclient eth0 as root the interface comes up and works properly. How I do get the interface to come up automatically? | 18:17 |
| Dr_Willis | tavis: the fontpath hasent been needed in xorg.conf in ages. :) Normally a font server is used. (i recall) | 18:18 |
| infid | Dr_Willis: i just dont see that, there is option for choosing which users to allow or deny though, but even when i tell it to allow my 'infid' user it still prompts me for a password then says 'holding for authentication' for a few seconds then re-prompts me for a password | 18:18 |
| tavis | Dr_Willis: xfs is not installed by default... is there a different font server in use? | 18:18 |
| erUSUL | rig0rmortis: with network manager? or usin /etc/network/interfaces ? | 18:19 |
| squidly | rig0rmortis: are you using network manager? | 18:19 |

| ActionParsnip | _l30_: you may need to install dkms | 18:33 |
| guntbert | _L30_: in the guest install dkms first -- virtual box support is to be found in #vbox | 18:33 |
| kdasdasf | ikonia, it's firefox, i already moved the .mozilla profile to a ramdisk but it's still accessing files and i don't know which | 18:33 |
| kdasdasf | and i want to make it stop | 18:33 |
| _L30_ | yea dkms forgot it :P | 18:33 |
| ikonia | kdasdasf: errr, it's not going to, it will be accessing system libraries on your machine to run | 18:33 |
| ActionParsnip | _l30_ : d'oh | 18:33 |

| kdasdasf | ikonia, and i have 2 gib of free ram | 18:34 |
| kdasdasf | so no need for accessing the swap | 18:34 |
| ActionParsnip | Kdasdasf: you could use lsof to see what's going on | 18:34 |
| ikonia | kdasdasf: it still will swap out disk cache to load a program (not just firefox) | 18:34 |
| ActionParsnip | Kfdasfasf: set vm.swappiness to 1 in /etc/sysctl.conf too. Always helps :) | 18:35 |
| ActionParsnip | Kdasdasf: ^ | 18:35 |
| kdasdasf | ActionParsnip, it has like 262 files open :-D | 18:35 |
| ActionParsnip | Kdasdasf: then grep or pipe to less. Makes things more useful | 18:36 |

| zicho | erUSUL thanks | 18:37 |
| erUSUL | zicho: no problem | 18:37 |
| ActionParsnip | Kdasdasf: setting the vm.swappiness lower will make the system use swap less. I believe the default is 60 or somesuch | 18:38 |

| wereHamster | I installed ubuntu and chose to install grub into the mbr. Is there a way to change that now? I have another boot loader in the mbr and don't want ubuntu to touch it | 18:42 |
| vladimirs | how can I find which wireless card driver I'm using and add it to the startup drivers? | 18:42 |
| kokozedman | what makes me scratch my head is that previous ubuntu were fine... graphics appear; but this new one has artifacts that can't be recognized | 18:42 |
| kokozedman | ok | 18:42 |

| sandking | i'm trying to install rockbox on my iriver h120 which i've formatted but it doesn't boot up properly, so i'm installing rockbox again on it. problem is - palimpsest sees it but when i select the device by bus it says mountpoint is not writeable | 18:43 |
| FliesLikeABrick | wereHamster ubuntu shouldn't touch the MBR again post-install unless you tell it to | 18:43 |
| ActionParsnip | Kokozedman: did you md5 test the iso you burned? Have you verified the cd is ok once first booted to? | 18:43 |
| sandking | anyone know what should i do? the device is formatted for usb | 18:43 |
| * profxavier really needs to understand sshd/ssh better | 18:43 | |
| wereHamster | FliesLikeABrick: not even when updating the kernel? | 18:43 |
| wereHamster | or grub? | 18:43 |
| FliesLikeABrick | correct wereHamster | 18:43 |
| ActionParsnip | Hummer256: use the pastebin please. You can give the exact output rather than an interpretation | 18:44 |
| kokozedman | ActionParsnip yes, i always do that... i actually did download both the Ubuntu and Kubuntu... both have the same problem | 18:44 |
| FliesLikeABrick | if grub needs to be updated in such a way that it rewrites the MBR, it will prompt you and you can say no | 18:44 |
| wereHamster | well, I've had it trash my mbr before, so I don't trust it anymore | 18:44 |
| sandking | i used lsusb to check device bus number but maybe i should point it other way? | 18:44 |
| wereHamster | .. without prompt that is | 18:44 |
| FliesLikeABrick | wereHamster and when a kernel is updated/installed it only edits the grub config files | 18:44 |
| FliesLikeABrick | wereHamster well maybe it's time to trust it and see if you have problems again | 18:44 |

| Slart | uLinux: it is, after all, a very common sound chip | 18:55 |
| Vax_ | <jozefk>, adobe flash. usually it works fine (like youtube.com) but sometimes it just doesn't. The most popluar place could be gmail | 18:55 |

| jozefk | better use sudo for running things as root. no need to connect as root user.. | 18:58 |

| abhi_ | jozefk, there was a nice tutorial somewhere in ubuntu forums, where they have mentioned this issue.. but now i am not able to find it. | 19:16 |
| greezmunkey | s/worth/worthy | 19:16 |
| Mwen____ | an answer? | 19:16 |
| ActionParsnip | Alloeishus: you don't edit grub.cfg you use the config files. You will find if you run: dpkg -l | grep linux-image-2 ,that you see the kernels offered in grub | 19:17 |
| jozefk | abhi_, I don't have that link either | 19:17 |
| abhi_ | jozefk, np.. just telling u ... | 19:17 |

| sean_ | abhi_, how old is your computer | 19:23 |
| === Guest92011 is now known as james0 | ||
| ActionParsnip | Alloeishus: tread carefully but you will be fine. Ubuntu keeps the old kernels incase the new one doesn't work and you can select the older one | 19:23 |
| jozefk | BluesKaj, pulseaudio is distributing stereo sound to 5+1 speakers for me and that's nice feature | 19:24 |
| ActionParsnip | Notch-1: what's the error? | 19:24 |
| sean_ | ActionParsnip, how do you delete old kernels | 19:24 |
| BluesKaj | hummer256, maybe pulsaudio works for your setup, but most onboard soundcxards don't benefit much from it | 19:24 |
| abhi_ | sean: mine is new laptop.. | 19:24 |
| abhi_ | core 2duo, 4gb.. ati graphics.. | 19:24 |
| jozefk | yeah onboard is ok without pulse.. | 19:25 |
| Alloeishus | ActionParsnip, I want to remove the kernel headers, correct? | 19:25 |
| ActionParsnip | Sean_: run: uname -a ,shows the current kernel. You can then run; dpkg l | grep linux-image-2 ,to see the installed kernels. Remove what you don't need but do NOT remove the current kernel | 19:25 |
| Notch-1 | ActionParsnip: " couldn't retrieve system settings properties: (2) The name org.freedesktop.NetworkManagerSystemSettings was not provided by any .service files." | 19:25 |
| abhi_ | sean_, can graphics card may cause the issue. | 19:25 |
| ActionParsnip | Alloeishus: you can run: sudo apt-get --purge autoremove ,to remove those too. They are now no use to you | 19:26 |
| abhi_ | sean_, i am not able to install the correct driver for my GPH card | 19:26 |

| jozefk | dartt, few days ago. there was some kernel update | 19:27 |
| wise_crypt | !kms | 19:27 |
| ActionParsnip | Leftmost: open software sources in system -> admin and uncheck the updates you don't want | 19:27 |

| Leftmost | ActionParsnip, it's on a headless box. | 19:28 |
| dartt | ok | 19:28 |
| abhi_ | sean_, is there any other automated process. | 19:28 |
| ActionParsnip | Leftmost: then run: sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list and comment out the stuff you don't need | 19:28 |
| Leftmost | I can edit sources.list, but I'd much prefer to just restrict the updates this once. | 19:28 |
| yoritomo | i have very often program instability then programs are greyed looks like no real reasons they eat all the cpu, like firefox, twinkle and some other which should not cause real problems | 19:28 |

| frxstrem | jozefk: well, I'll have a look at it | 19:40 |

| malchias | I use secure crt from windows boxes to manage the debian servers, but sometimes I get a network time out and it disconnects my ssh session (but it's still running). Looking for a way to relog and reacquire that same session | 19:40 |
| profxavier | guess I must have that site referenced twice in sources.list or something? | 19:40 |
| caleb_ | I have a mac external HD that has a backup file on it. I can read the backup files by accessing them through gksudo nautilus and browsing to the folder. It errors saying I do not have permissions when I move them to my /home. I cannot seem to sudo chown the folders, says its read only. Any suggestions? | 19:40 |
| profxavier | weird, I do not | 19:40 |
| yoritomo | Xorg take 36% of the cpu already and when i launch virtualbox it takes already 56% then still almost nothing for ubuntu | 19:40 |
| h00k | abuayyoub: it's a command line program, that shows you all of the switches and explains them | 19:41 |
| ikonia | caleb_: you need write permissions to "move" a file from a device, you need read to copy it from a device | 19:41 |
| yoritomo | why Xorg eats so much ? | 19:41 |
| iceroot | malchias: and the third killer feature from screen is that you can share a terminal with others, so people can connect to your screen-session and see what you are doing for are able to work on the screen session, so screen is the most usefull tool around in the open-source world | 19:41 |

| ubuntu_ | iceroot: does it then use as much ram as it thinks is sane on it's own? | 19:42 |
| malchias | iceroot: that sounds like what I need. | 19:42 |
| caleb_ | ikonia: how do I create those permissions? it says I do not have permissions to read it when I paste it to my /home folder from gksudo nautilus | 19:42 |

| yoritomo | ActionParsnip> <stenchmaster> how comes Xorg takes so much cpu is it something wrong ? | 19:43 |

| sjm | PrototypeX29A, did you restart thunderbird? | 19:44 |
| ikonia | caleb_: then you either don't have read permissions on the device, or no write permissions on the write device | 19:44 |
| PrototypeX29A | sjm: yes | 19:44 |
| Slart | PrototypeX29A: there is another switch for checking mail when thunderbird starts.. that's not the one doing it? | 19:44 |
| markf | PrototypeX29A: It's probably using IMAP Idle. the server can send you messages when it gets anything new | 19:44 |
| ubuntu_ | cousteau: i could install xfce and remove gnome to get a few more nice things though? | 19:44 |
| ubuntu_ | like vim | 19:44 |
| Pici | profxavier: Thats not what I said. Look at the conf files in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ , maybe one of them contains the line that is causing your error. | 19:44 |
| * ubuntu_ misses vim | 19:44 | |
| ubuntu_ | and isn't there and apt-cache somewhere? | 19:44 |
| cousteau | ubuntu_: isn't vim installed by default? or at least the vi-compatible one | 19:44 |
| PrototypeX29A | Slart: that one is supposed to do it one time only, isn't it? | 19:44 |
| iceroot | ubuntu_: what about using a real installation? | 19:44 |
| profxavier | Pici, that is a d, and in it, there is getdeb.list (a file | 19:45 |
| ubuntu_ | iceroot: :) | 19:45 |
| cousteau | ubuntu_: well, you could try cleaning the apt cache | 19:45 |
| iceroot | cousteau: only the bad vi is installed, not the powerfull vim | 19:45 |
| caleb_ | ikonia: ok, how do I create those permissions? the original user account that created/mod'ed the files is gone. the macosx that contained it was reinstalled, replacing the original account and it no longer exists | 19:45 |
| rig0rmortis | I am having some issues using apt behind an ISP proxy. In short, when downloading updates (or new packages) using apt, the downloads sometimes go very slowly, and often timeout. Many of the downloads that do come down fail with a "Hash sum mismatch" error. Does anyone have any ideas about how I might work around this? | 19:45 |
| profxavier | which contains: "deb http://archive.getdeb.net/ubuntu lucid-getdeb apps" | 19:45 |
| PrototypeX29A | markf: where can i turn that off? | 19:45 |
| Pici | profxavier: Then you can either delete it or wait until getdeb.net is back up. | 19:45 |
| cousteau | ubuntu_: sudo apt-get clean, I think | 19:45 |
| Slart | PrototypeX29A: as far as I know, yes.. I would check what markf said as well.. the IDLE thing might be what's doing it | 19:45 |
| profxavier | Pici, ok, thanks | 19:45 |
| ikonia | caleb_: I'd look at the target device permissions first, what is the target device ? | 19:45 |
| malchias | iceroot: works perfectly, thank you | 19:46 |
| PrototypeX29A | Slart: where can i turn that off? | 19:46 |

| Pupeno | Any idea how to make an installable usb memory stick on macosx? | 19:46 |
| caleb_ | ikonia: any device I can put it on. this is more of restoring files after a system reinstall. I could place it in my /home for now, but it will eventually go back to her macosx | 19:46 |
| Slart | PrototypeX29A: it's in the account settings.. advanced tab | 19:46 |
| rig0rmortis | cousteau: I'm on ethernet. This problem occurs across many of our servers at work. | 19:46 |
| nascentmind | hi. when i chroot i get /home/user not present. why is that? | 19:46 |
| cousteau | Pupeno: well, mac os is posix based, so maybe using dd | 19:47 |
| markf | PrototypeX29A: I'm not sure myself, I use evolution where it's optional. By design though it shouldn't use imap idle if you have it check a certain time period (it would be redundant for imap idle to enable as well). You could try setting it to a very high check time? Other than that I'm not sure | 19:47 |
| Whammo | can anybody tell me how to add acpi=off to my boot line? | 19:47 |
| ikonia | caleb_: then look at the write permissons on the device you want to write to | 19:47 |
| PrototypeX29A | markf: the evolution guys kind of recommended thunderbird to me | 19:47 |
| caleb_ | ikonia: its my /home folder. it has the standard user permissions | 19:48 |
| ikonia | caleb_: so check if you can write to where you want to write to | 19:48 |

| frxstrem | h00k: okay, I'll try that ... (thank's for the tip, by the way :)) | 19:49 |
| caleb_ | ikonia: I can write to it, but not copy the files from the external to it. its basically saying that the user "me" cannot read the files that root is transfering from (external) | 19:49 |
| h00k | frxstrem: :) | 19:49 |
| sjm | whammo: to try it once edit the grub boot line adding that at the end of the kernel line. | 19:49 |
| caleb_ | ikonia: I can copy them to my /home/root folder | 19:50 |
| ikonia | caleb_: what ???? you | 19:50 |
| sjm | whammo: every time: I'd say edit grub's menu.lst file, but that's grub 1.5 and not grub2. | 19:50 |
| ikonia | caleb_: ok - so what's the problem, they have copied off the external drive, problem solved | 19:50 |
| sjm | whammo, someone else can maybe help with grub2 settings. | 19:50 |

| ikonia | henriquelm: so create one | 19:54 |
| bhawna | cousteau: /media/sda5 is d drive | 19:54 |
| alabd | mean only we can setup a cloud computing on server edition or not ? | 19:54 |
| Slart | PrototypeX29A: it might have been because evolution has some microsoft exchange capabilities as well | 19:54 |
| PrototypeX29A | Slart: what is an "ubuntu thing"? | 19:55 |
| cousteau | bhawna: I have a FAT32 drive and the options line is "utf8,umask=000,fmask=111,gid=46,shortname=mixed" | 19:55 |
| henriquelm | ikonia, how? I don't have a clue what a configuration directory is. | 19:55 |

| bhawna | well let me try with your options | 19:55 |
| PrototypeX29A | Slart: well it is part of gnome, but i am sure you can do without :) | 19:55 |
| henriquelm | ikonia, I do have /etc/ldap/slapd.d directory, but it is read only for root, this might be the problem right? | 19:56 |
| Evet | how to reset sound | 19:56 |
| Slart | PrototypeX29A: yea, sure.. but try uninstalling the evolution database backend thingy and it will remove the entire system | 19:56 |

| nuboon2age | fidormula: did it say anything about fwcutter? | 20:50 |

| siddhion | i just installed Xubuntu 10.04 but when I rebooted I ran into the same problem (which i will explain in a moment) I had before the installation when I attempted to run Xubuntu off the Live USB CD. Essentially what happened before is that when I chose to either: 1) install or 2) just try out Xubuntu from the Live CD USB, it would: 1) start to load 2) I would see a horrible rendered two tone (gray/white) pixelated Xubuntu logo. (At that point I | 20:51 |
| siddhion | felt something was wrong because this is not the 1980s) and 3) the logo would disappear and it would stall on a blank black screen. | 20:51 |

| siddhion | Now the same thing is happening when I try to boot up Xubuntu 10.04. Keep in mind that the installation went ok. | 20:51 |
| fidormula | well, it says it did | 20:52 |
| sebsebseb | lisandro: ok yeah wireless in Ubuntu, so yeah you can try get it working natively like you were doing, or possibily try Ndiswrapper and use a Windows driver for it | 20:52 |
| nuboon2age | fidormula: I've seen that greyed out thing before but I'm not sure what it indicates. | 20:52 |
| luc_ | marc you need to change the settings on the very first page you will see (the icons at the bottom) | 20:52 |
| lisandro | but i use ubuntu no windows | 20:52 |

| QuiltPants | hi all, just read a very interesting article on OMG!Ubuntu about the quality of ubuntu. It can be found here http://bit.ly/a1M96j. Anyways I'm new to ubuntu and was wondering how i tell whether something i have installed is from the ubuntu repos or a newer ppa that i've set up? | 20:55 |
| yoritomo | hum , no video or advertise on tha page, just a form of online shopping | 20:55 |
| sebsebseb | QuiltPants: only get stuff from the repos, unless you have a proper reason otherwise, then yes ppa's or offical sources/websites for programs | 20:56 |
| trism | QuiltPants: apt-cache policy package_name; it will list the versions and what repos they are from | 20:56 |
| QuiltPants | trism: oh thanks | 20:56 |

| QuiltPants | trism: how would i tell whether i have the latest stable release version of an app? for example i've just installed gloobus-preview. how do i know which version i've installed and whether i should try to install a later version? is all that kind of info on launchpad? | 21:02 |
| guntbert | francis_: if you used less abbreviations I would at least know about what you are talking :-)) | 21:02 |

| panfist | from a clean boot, ubuntu recognizes one of my monitors as having a 75Hz refresh rate, but if i leave the computer idle and power saving turns the monitor off, it goes back to 60Hz | 21:07 |
| Jordan_U | siddhion: You can change it in /etc/default/grub, but I think it should have been kept if you used that to boot the installer. | 21:07 |
| francis_ | guntbert: we are not in germany here, and even in germany it is legal to bruteforce your own password. | 21:07 |
| guntbert | francis_: still -- that is no topic for ubuntu support - please drop it | 21:08 |

| ff88 | Slart, Docteh: I can't see them documented anywhere | 21:13 |
| buppa_ | sebsebseb: The CPU usage is still very high compared to Windows XP, In windows XP the CPU usage is 1%, in Ubuntu its 25% | 21:13 |
| QuiltPants | trism: interesting :) Yes I just installed the PPA. I'm new to ubuntu and currently loving it (especially the community). Out of interest do the ubuntu repos generally have the latest stable versions of the applications available within or is it better to update apps by installing app specific ppas? | 21:13 |
| Slart | ff88: neither can I.. google isn't very helpful either.. | 21:14 |
| sebsebseb | buppa_: whilst playing in which player? | 21:14 |
| ff88 | Slart, Docteh: I wouldn't like to be there bugging you but I'm a bit concerned, you know... | 21:14 |
| Jordan_U | siddhion: Hold shift during boot and you will get a grub menu. Press 'e' to edit the first menu entry and add "i915.modeset=1" to the end of the line that starts with "linux" | 21:14 |
| buppa_ | sebsebseb: VLC player and mplayer | 21:14 |

| willian | oi | 21:15 |
| trism | QuiltPants: generally ubuntu releases will only get newer versions for security updates and bug fixes, so the latest stable releases may not be included until the next ubuntu version. If you absolutely need the latest version though, you're right, you can often find a ppa for it | 21:15 |
| hoens1 | do i have to add a repository to injstall flex? | 21:15 |

| buppa_ | duffydack, where can i find guide? | 21:28 |
| duffydack | buppa_, software sources, tick the proposed | 21:29 |

| ubottu | j800r: To reset the panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » | 21:31 |
| Docteh | !panels | 21:31 |
| duffydack | buppa_, did you try the free driver at all? | 21:31 |
| ubottu | To reset the gnome panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » | 21:31 |
| buppa_ | duffydack, no, where can i find it? | 21:31 |
| duffydack | buppa_, was your screen res at its proper setting after installing ubuntu? | 21:31 |
| buppa_ | duffydack, yes | 21:32 |
| antaw | oh god i hate autojoin | 21:32 |
| duffydack | buppa_, just deactivate the ati driver then...it will use the free one | 21:32 |
| duffydack | buppa_, its slower for me in games, not by a lot but enough.. but its fine for compiz... | 21:33 |
| buppa_ | duffydack, how much CPU is ubuntu consuming for you? | 21:33 |

| corpse | I am having a problem with one PC running 10.04. When first installed the network connection ran fine. Then one night i came home from work and my speed was incredibly slow (went from 7mb to .15mb on speakeasy) after pulling out the wifi card, blowing it off etc it then ran fine for the past week. now today it is back to barly registering on speakeasy. | 21:36 |
| buppa_ | duffydack, i have a quad core too, but xorg is at 25% - 45% | 21:36 |
| corpse | Also my other PC and laptop running 10.04 both still show a 7mb speed | 21:36 |
| duffydack | buppa_, deactivate the ati driver then in hardware drivers and reboot. | 21:37 |
| duffydack | buppa_, if that fails, try the 'propposed' repo like I said.. | 21:37 |
| duffydack | 'proposed' even | 21:37 |

| duffydack | buppa_, maybe you`d have to install manually from the repo... the package fglrx | 21:41 |
| roni | so i install again fluxbox to see if this gonna happen again. . . | 21:42 |

| KimIskov | hi, Is it possible to make an ext partition to a primary partition without loosing my linux installation? | 21:42 |
| roni | and yep .. this happen again .. | 21:42 |
| Chocobo | CaptainTrek, it doesn't matter to me. I prefer command line. | 21:42 |
| roni | i know that is something a little stupid install fluxbox in kubuntu .. but i think that is a big bug .. | 21:42 |
| duffydack | Chocobo, sdb is the whole drive, you should specify the partition. | 21:43 |
| buppa_ | duffydack, can i write sudo apt-get update fglrx? | 21:43 |
| jv_ | roni: kasansweat probably has it nailed..,.bu I would look into the known bug list..have you done that yet? | 21:43 |
| Chocobo | duffydack, I was under the impression that the ISO contained the filesystem. | 21:43 |
| duffydack | buppa_, how did you install the ATI driver? did you make debs? | 21:43 |
| roni | no ... i dont know how .. hahahahahahaha | 21:44 |
| kasansweat | roni: I was just translating, I don't know exactly what it means. Maybe your standard fscking might help | 21:44 |

| Livefan | So only sw raid shows up in /proc/mdstat? | 22:21 |
| iceroot | Livefan: yes | 22:21 |
| iceroot | Livefan: hw-raid you dont see on the os | 22:21 |
| vlt | Livefan: mdstat is for linux's md module | 22:21 |
| bulters | ok, this really sucks, i just removed every trace of git i could find, and did an apt-get install git-core, but I still get an error on libz | 22:21 |
| bulters | anyone has an idea? | 22:22 |
| Livefan | Ahh I see. Good to know. | 22:22 |
| wildbat | ykaya, functions key of the laptops should be OS independent | 22:22 |
| Livefan | So the ability to find out what drive is failing is all on the controller card itself_ | 22:22 |
| betzi | hi i have a problem with fakeraid. notably i have an initramfs that doesnt contain the kpartx udev rules. | 22:22 |
| vlt | Livefan: Yes. | 22:23 |
| Livefan | sigh, how do people know what drive is failing in an array then? | 22:23 |
| irv_ | the boot-up utility for your RAID card should provide that functionality | 22:23 |
| Livefan | I guess that differs from hardware to hardware | 22:23 |
| vlt | Livefan: Maybe there's a software tool to communicate with the hardware | 22:23 |
| vlt | Livefan: Yes, from your vendor (if any) | 22:24 |
| ykaya_ | wildbat: yes they are I guess but the problem is with the illuminated touch sensitive buttons not the function keys | 22:24 |
| Livefan | vlt: If there were any such software, I doubt it is made for Linux | 22:24 |

| Firefishe | vlt: so I guess I'll play around with that for a while. Thanks for the suggestions, I appreciate it. :) | 22:32 |
| wildbat | buppa_, may be due to your desktop effect. run htop in terminal to see what taking the CPU time | 22:32 |
| Jamesgamer_linux | Chocobo: i.e. the ubuntu installer would encounter a small error and just not show it (since endusers with little linux experience would be using that), while gparted requires sudo, and thus is less "trainingwheels" ish | 22:32 |
| vlt | Firefishe: I don't know it very well. Look for opensync modules for kde-pim (or whatever it is called now) and palmOS ... | 22:32 |

| Maletor | blue_anna: ? | 23:42 |
| mindriot | I would use the XVideo extension, but for some reason it doesn't want to work. Anybody got an idea what else I could try to get it to work? | 23:42 |
| sebsebseb | fr0stbyte: why trying to boot two Ubuntu's anyway? | 23:42 |
| miked595 | boban: I'm not sure. the docs from nvidia show it uses their purevideo tech for on-chip HD h.264 decode acceleration | 23:42 |
| blue_anna | Maletor, I need the conf file that generated that error | 23:42 |
| thune3 | chalk: your hard drive is developing bad sectors (going bad). | 23:43 |
| acerimmer_ | cheekee: you do realize this tutorial only uses grub2 since 9.10? no GRUB involved | 23:43 |
| Maletor | it's in the original pastie | 23:43 |
| mindriot | All I get from xvinfo atm is "no adaptors present". | 23:43 |
| miked595 | boban I dont think the linux driers support this yet | 23:43 |
| emhs | boban's left. | 23:43 |
| blue_anna | I can't psychically just figure out what the conf file was based on the error :P just joshin | 23:43 |
| mindriot | And I'm using the standard radeon driver. | 23:43 |
| emhs | So, anyone managed to configure a Samba Share properly under 10.04 Desktop? | 23:43 |
| emhs | Any tips? | 23:43 |
| Flare183 | Sm3gal: you see this? | 23:44 |
| looner | I'm having issues getting the install CD to work when my laptop has AHCI enabled. Disabled, works fine, but windows stops working. any way I can install with it enabled? | 23:44 |
| fr0stbyte | is it impossible to upgrade a 9.10 crunchbang (based on minimal ubuntu) to 10.04 ubuntu? | 23:44 |
| IdleOne | fr0stbyte: ask crunchbang | 23:44 |
| sebsebseb | fr0stbyte: crunchbang and Ubuntu 10.04 are not the same distro | 23:44 |
| mindriot | I've tried AccelMethods "XAA" and "EXA", at 16 and 24 bits, and Kernel ModeSwitch enabled/disabled. No difference. Anyone got an idea what else I could try to get XVideo to work? The radeon driver man page says my chipset is supported... | 23:44 |
| sebsebseb | fr0stbyte: so as far as I know you can't upgrade it to Ubuntu 10.04, and trying to, would rpobably mess something up | 23:45 |
| ZenMasta | how do I write the cli output to a text file? ie, ifconfig > /home/me/myfile | 23:45 |
| cheekee | acerimmer_: I've found a problem with Ubuntu's Grub2 though...and I think they should work on it. If it is so much easier to triple or quadruple boot with Grub, is Grub2 really better? | 23:45 |
| Hdale85 | I'm having an issue with my HTPC that's running ubuntu I believe 9.10 | 23:45 |
| Maletor | blue_anna: i guess what I'm trying to say is what does identifier do in xorg.conf | 23:45 |
| fr0stbyte | whats the apt-get for update manager? | 23:45 |
| === root is now known as Guest80515 | ||
| Hdale85 | I had it booted up to boot directly into XBMC but now it boots to a black screen with the mouse pointer | 23:46 |
| mindriot | ZenMasta, you can use "program > myfile", or "program &> myfile" (the latter catches stderr as well). | 23:46 |
| Hdale85 | not sure what's going on here.... It hasn't been on in a long time as we were moving and what not. | 23:46 |
| Sm3gal | help i tryed to pure gnome and its sitting here with ubuntu in txt and 4 dots | 23:47 |
| blue_anna | Maletor, InputClass defines a general specification for a variety of devices, each taht normally want to define their own INput section, that all match the spec -- I think it's purpose was to allow people to define a general class for like Wacom tablet for example... | 23:47 |
| sebsebseb | Sm3gal: when exactly? | 23:47 |
| acerimmer_ | cheekee: dual boot under grub - few problems. triple boot under grub2 as described - no problems. triple boot under grub - no experience. sorry | 23:47 |
| blue_anna | Male.... and you're gone | 23:47 |
| sebsebseb | Sm3gal: the boot up? the terminal? | 23:47 |
| Sm3gal | i tryed to pure gnome | 23:48 |
| blue_anna | lol, try your hardest, sometimes they just don't want to solve it :P | 23:48 |
| Sm3gal | cus i never use kde | 23:48 |
| ZenMasta | mindriot thanks I guess I had it figured correctly my problem was a permission issue, i ran the same command a folder below it worked fine | 23:48 |
| Sm3gal | all its doing is sitting here with the ubuntu txt and 4 dotd | 23:48 |
| sebsebseb | Sm3gal: in the terminal? | 23:48 |
| Sm3gal | yes | 23:49 |
| Hdale85 | Any idea's as to why it would go from working perfect to just having a cursor? Also anyone know what I can do to get back to gnome? can't remember how I used to do it lol | 23:49 |
| sebsebseb | Sm3gal: ok sounds odd | 23:49 |
| Sm3gal | not its at the boot screen | 23:49 |
| sebsebseb | Sm3gal: I guess it means that it crashed at trying to puregnome | 23:49 |
| sebsebseb | Sm3gal: did the terminal show it removing KDE apps? | 23:49 |
| ironfoot495 | Hello I'm having a hard time getting vlc to stream and receiving it on another ubuntu 9.10 pc. Can somone please help me with this??? | 23:49 |
| Sm3gal | yes | 23:49 |
| cheekee | acerimmer_: you triple or quadruple boot everyday with Grub when a new kernel is installed | 23:49 |
| Sm3gal | it had 1 error | 23:49 |
| Sm3gal | with adobe flase | 23:50 |
| Sm3gal | flash | 23:50 |
| sebsebseb | Sm3gal: its probably removed most stuff, but you can pastebin if you want | 23:50 |
| acerimmer_ | cheekee: what we have here is failure to communicate. GRUB is out of ubuntu as of 9.10. GRUB2 is now the default bootloader. | 23:50 |
| mindriot | Hdale85, maybe you pulled some upgrades? First check if you can log on at the console, and try to restart gdm | 23:50 |
| Sm3gal | its sitting here i cannot do anything | 23:50 |
| Jordan_U | cheekee: "sudo update-grub" doesn't add a menu entry for fedora? | 23:50 |
| sebsebseb | Sm3gal: plus you could install KDE again, then try puregnome again, and hopefuly that time no problem | 23:50 |
| Sm3gal | !puregnome | 23:50 |
| sebsebseb | Sm3gal: ok sounds like the terminal crashed, you can't type anything in to that terminal? | 23:51 |
| Sm3gal | nothing is up | 23:51 |
| Hdale85 | mindriot, I can login via the console and I stopped gdm and I believe started it but still nothing, It was literally working the day I shut it down. | 23:51 |
| bsmith093 | is there a script that will recompile the kernel using only the stuff i actually need | 23:51 |
| Sm3gal | i rebooted after i did the pureboot | 23:51 |
| sebsebseb | Sm3gal: if the terminal has crashed or something, try ctrl c, and then you should be able to type in to it normalley | 23:51 |
| Sm3gal | the keys dont work | 23:52 |
| sebsebseb | Sm3gal: re booted, after running puregnome? | 23:52 |
| Sm3gal | !purekde | 23:52 |
| ubottu | If you want to remove all !Gnome packages and have a default !Kubuntu system follow the instructions here « https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PureKDE » | 23:52 |
| sebsebseb | Sm3gal: re booted the computer after running puregnome? | 23:52 |
| Sm3gal | yes | 23:52 |
| sebsebseb | Sm3gal: and now the termianl doesn't work? | 23:52 |
| === K-Lighter is now known as KnickLighter | ||
| noname_ | hello does anyone have knowledge about g++ i have a little question | 23:52 |
| Hdale85 | mindriot, yeah when I start gdm again it just does the same thing, black screen with the mouse | 23:52 |
| cheekee | Jordan_U: No. It only adds the chainloader Fedora 13 menu, but that boots straight to Windows, ignoring the 2 Fedora kernels, just above it on the menu | 23:52 |
| Sm3gal | nothing is working | 23:52 |
| === argonaut_ is now known as argonaut | ||
| Sm3gal | its sitting here | 23:52 |
| sebsebseb | Sm3gal: what is sitting there the terminal? | 23:53 |
| mindriot | Hdale85, check for any oddities in /var/log/Xorg.0.log, or in gdm's log | 23:53 |
| Sm3gal | with the word ubuntu | 23:53 |
| Sm3gal | and 4 dots | 23:53 |
| Sm3gal | no termanal | 23:53 |
| sebsebseb | Sm3gal: ok the terminal says ubuntu and it has 4 dots .... ? | 23:53 |
| Jordan_U | cheekee: Can you pastebin your grub.cfg? | 23:53 |
| Sm3gal | just a black screen the word ubuntu and 4 dots | 23:53 |
| mindriot | sebsebseb, maybe he means the splash screen? | 23:53 |
| sebsebseb | mindriot: I asked that earlier | 23:53 |
| sebsebseb | mindriot: and they said no | 23:53 |
| Sm3gal | i ment yes | 23:53 |
| mindriot | that's what I get for not paying attention ;) | 23:54 |
| h00k | !enter | Sm3gal | 23:54 |
| ubottu | Sm3gal: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 23:54 |
| Sm3gal | its the splash | 23:54 |
| drbobb | wow this is wild.. I enabled compcache on my laptop, and suddenly it feels like I'd given it an extra RAM chip. Why the heck doesn't ubuntu offer the option to enable compcache on installation? | 23:54 |
| sebsebseb | Sm3gal: ok Plymouth has crashed | 23:54 |
| cheekee | Jordan_U: ok | 23:54 |
| Sm3gal | how i fix | 23:54 |
| sebsebseb | Sm3gal: are you on another computer now? | 23:54 |
| Sm3gal | tryed rebooting | 23:54 |
| Sm3gal | yea | 23:54 |
| Sm3gal | its winblows tho | 23:54 |
| sebsebseb | Sm3gal: ok | 23:54 |
| sebsebseb | Sm3gal: Plymouth issues ok, I helped with some before, plus had my own on other computer | 23:55 |
| Sm3gal | how can i fix it lol other then taking it to flare183's house | 23:55 |
| sebsebseb | Sm3gal: right well removing KDE with the puregnome command, shoudn't have effected Plymouth, except for the boot up screen | 23:55 |
| Jordan_U | fr0stbyte: The only problem with having two Ubuntu installations is that you'll have to scroll past the old kernels of the main install to get to the menu entries for the secondary install. | 23:55 |
| sebsebseb | Sm3gal: maybe | 23:55 |
| sebsebseb | Sm3gal: when Kubuntu was installed, did you get the Kubuntu boot up screen? | 23:56 |
| doormat81 | Is Ruby + Glade a viable solution for developing GUI apps in Ubuntu? | 23:56 |
| Sm3gal | its ubuntu | 23:56 |
| sebsebseb | Sm3gal: yes now it is | 23:56 |
| Sm3gal | 10.04 | 23:56 |
| sebsebseb | Sm3gal: however when Kubuntu was installed, did you see the Kubuntu boot up screen instead? | 23:56 |
| Sm3gal | no | 23:56 |
| Sm3gal | it has always been ubuntu | 23:56 |
| Hdale85 | mindriot, where is the log for gdm? Nothing looked out of place in the Xorg log | 23:56 |
| Hdale85 | no major errors or anything anyways | 23:56 |
| Sm3gal | but with lucid you can boot into kde | 23:56 |
| sebsebseb | Sm3gal: ok a bit odd then, since if you install kubuntu-desktop it should change to the other screen | 23:57 |
| Sm3gal | cus there was an op at the login | 23:57 |
| sebsebseb | Sm3gal: yes you can boot up KDE or LXDE and what not, if it is installed | 23:57 |
| sebsebseb | Sm3gal: from the log in screen | 23:57 |
| Sm3gal | login still not up | 23:57 |
| sufni | hi all | 23:57 |
| Sm3gal | been 20 min sitting here | 23:57 |
| sebsebseb | Sm3gal: whats that about the log in? | 23:57 |
| PoisonSerpent | sufni: herro. | 23:57 |
| Sm3gal | it hasn't come up yet | 23:57 |
| mindriot | Hdale85, there should be stuff in /var/log/gdm | 23:58 |
| cheekee | Jordan_U: http://pastebin.ca/1878733 | 23:58 |
| sebsebseb | Sm3gal: of course, since Plymouth has crashed | 23:58 |
| sebsebseb | Sm3gal: so you tried to re boot and same problem? | 23:58 |
| Blue1 | shoulda got a buick! | 23:58 |
| Hdale85 | mindriot, yeah I found it now, so far a bunch of empty ogs | 23:58 |
| Hdale85 | logs* | 23:58 |
| sebsebseb | Sm3gal: since the crash, have you turned off your computer, and loaded it up again? | 23:58 |
| BLZbubba | ok where does the xscreensaver with the random photos get its photos from? | 23:58 |
| sebsebseb | Sm3gal: and tried to boot up Ubuntu? | 23:58 |
| mindriot | ok | 23:58 |
| Jordan_U | cheekee: Did you know that you have grub legacy installed to your mbr and not grub2? | 23:58 |
| BLZbubba | i just got some full frontal nudity | 23:58 |
| mindriot | as for my own problem: still trying to get XVideo to work. xdpyinfo says XVideo is present, however xvinfo says "no adaptors present". DRI works. Anyone got any other tricks to check why XVideo support isn't there? | 23:58 |
| sebsebseb | Sm3gal: sometimes Plymouth in 10.04 will crash on people, freeze | 23:59 |
| Sm3gal | imma send a file | 23:59 |
| Hdale85 | mindriot, they are all empty....so nothing useful there | 23:59 |
| mindriot | hmm | 23:59 |
| gafir | hello, is there a way to tell how long a session has last so far? | 23:59 |
| FlameTai1 | Um guys, does anyone know a fix for the bug where when you enable Compiz it makes your system alerts not work? | 23:59 |
| acerimmer | !uptime|gafir | 23:59 |
| sebsebseb | Sm3gal: no don't send through here, upload to an image site | 23:59 |
| Sm3gal | i'm sending a pic of how it looks | 23:59 |
| alireza | hi | 23:59 |
| acerimmer | gafir: uptime | 23:59 |
