tpjmiami | funny enough, that same webpage suggests replacing pulseaudio w/ esound: sudo aptitude purge pulseaudio && sudo aptitude install esound | 00:01 |

sinnet | Hi, I need to install cuda sdk for using md5 crack gpu... i didn't found it it on repos, so i started looking for information, and i found a way which is downloading from nvidia.com a .run file for ubuntu 10.4, getting ggc-4.3 and making a couple of symlinks | 02:05 |
sinnet | the thing is, i'd like to be able to remove the package | 02:05 |
sinnet | just not just compile it blindy using the script included in the .run file | 02:07 |
stlsaint | you should be able to purge anything you install on your system | 02:08 |
aveilleux | ...... | 02:08 |
aveilleux | "cuda sdk for using md5 crack gpu"? | 02:09 |
stlsaint | yea that is a mouthful tbh | 02:09 |
aveilleux | The um | 02:09 |
aveilleux | the md5sum isn't anything you need to crack | 02:09 |
aveilleux | It's not a code | 02:09 |
paultag | sinnet: do you know what you are doing? | 02:09 |
paultag | sinnet: you know cuda is only for nvidia, right? | 02:10 |
sinnet | yeah, i want to experiment cracking MD5 hashes using GPU | 02:10 |
stlsaint | download from nvidia???? | 02:10 |
sinnet | i know cuda is from nvidia... | 02:10 |
paultag | stlsaint: yeah | 02:10 |
paultag | stlsaint: cuda is nvidia only | 02:10 |
stlsaint | aye | 02:10 |
sinnet | i have the nvidia driver installed of course... | 02:10 |
sinnet | the propietary one, and i have an nvidia card | 02:11 |
paultag | sinnet: you're going to have a hell of a time. I worked with cuda for a while under gnu/linux, and it was rough around the edges | 02:11 |
paultag | sinnet: you can try and write it in python in five minutes | 02:11 |
paultag | sinnet: just don't save it to the disk, if you try and do all 8 length combos you will be well over a TB | 02:11 |
stlsaint | paultag: LOL...that was the first task you gave me and i still have yet to write that!! :D | 02:11 |
paultag | sinnet: so start with md5 from 1-4 and learn from then up. Don't forget non keyboaord utf symbols | 02:12 |
paultag | stlsaint: :D | 02:12 |
paultag | stlsaint: sure was :) | 02:12 |
sinnet | lol... paultag | 02:12 |
sinnet | rainbow tables would be easier | 02:12 |
paultag | sinnet: as you can tell, I've done all this before ;) | 02:12 |
paultag | sinnet: but they take up terabytes to be useful | 02:12 |
sinnet | i know... | 02:12 |
paultag | sinnet: and that's only for unsalted for under 8 chars | 02:12 |
sinnet | yep | 02:12 |
paultag | sinnet: write it in python | 02:12 |
sinnet | look, i just want to use cuda enabled software | 02:13 |
=== starcraft is now known as starcraftman | ||
paultag | sinnet: it takes a few minutes | 02:13 |
paultag | sinnet: it will take a long time to get CUDA running, and I spend my life on GNU/Linux | 02:13 |
paultag | sinnet: it took me a long while, and I'm not a n00b | 02:13 |
paultag | jsut saying | 02:13 |
paultag | it's not easy | 02:13 |
sinnet | I understand... and i am not that of a noob too.. | 02:14 |
paultag | sinnet: if you want to play with md5 hashes, write it. CUDA will only be more effective at large cracks | 02:14 |
paultag | stlsaint: and since you are "just playing with it" I would strongly advise you don't do it that way | 02:14 |
paultag | erm sinnet * | 02:14 |
sinnet | i wanna see if it is feasible to crack certain passwords... even cain & abel in windows is going slow | 02:15 |
paultag | sinnet: then that becomes the grey area where we can't help | 02:15 |
sinnet | i could run md5 crack gpu in windows, but that wont mean learning | 02:15 |
sinnet | i am not cracking everyone mate... | 02:15 |
paultag | sinnet: we can only help with 100% not-even-close-to-anything-that-can-be-illigal stuff | 02:15 |
sinnet | i generated my own hashes | 02:16 |
sinnet | and i wanna crack them you see | 02:16 |
paultag | sinnet: read what I just wrote | 02:16 |
paultag | sinnet: that can be applied to illicit stuff, even though no one uses unsalted MD5s, we can't go there | 02:16 |
sinnet | cant help with cuda?? | 02:16 |
paultag | No sinnet, you are using it for that grey area. We can't help here | 02:17 |
paultag | sinnet: go find some programming guides for cuda | 02:17 |
paultag | sinnet: those will help get it installed | 02:17 |
paultag | sinnet: good luck, don't fuck up :) | 02:17 |
sinnet | so basically | 02:17 |
sinnet | theres not easy way in lucid?? | 02:17 |
paultag | sinnet: there is, but we can not help here | 02:17 |
sinnet | good.. ok | 02:18 |
sinnet | i have another question | 02:19 |
sinnet | totally unrelated | 02:19 |
paultag | sinnet: what's up. | 02:19 |
sinnet | I figured out a way to use ffado and jack with my external audio interface card | 02:19 |
paultag | sinnet: kk, ye | 02:20 |
sinnet | but i want to be able to connect what goes to pulseaudio to jack.. and i found a ppa that is supposed to have pulseaudio configured for jacksupport, you just have to edit the modules | 02:21 |
sinnet | so well, darn, it didnt work, rhymbox or firefox would crash | 02:21 |
paultag | sinnet: that ruins the reason you have JACK | 02:21 |
sinnet | but it replaced the original libpulse0 | 02:22 |
paultag | sinnet: it's for low latency audio, pulse would bog down JACK | 02:22 |
sinnet | i know, but i just wanna listen to stuff with my external firewire card | 02:22 |
sinnet | ffado is not supported in pulseaudio | 02:22 |
paultag | sinnet: use JACK apps for doing what those pulse apps do | 02:22 |
paultag | sinnet: mplayer supports JACK | 02:22 |
sinnet | rhymbox doesnt support jack | 02:22 |
sinnet | i use vlc for now | 02:22 |
paultag | sinnet: rb sucks | 02:22 |
sinnet | umm.... | 02:22 |
paultag | sinnet: there is a winamp clone for it as well | 02:23 |
paultag | sinnet: and mpd works too, I think | 02:23 |
sinnet | audacius, but jack plugin is wrong | 02:23 |
sinnet | i dont know why.... it outputs low volume | 02:23 |
paultag | I've never had an issue with it | 02:23 |
paultag | sinnet: turn it up :D | 02:23 |
sinnet | it is really down | 02:23 |
paultag | sinnet: run it through JACK Rack worst case | 02:23 |
paultag | sinnet: and throw the gain up | 02:23 |
sinnet | ummm | 02:23 |
paultag | sinnet: install patchage if you don't have it already | 02:23 |
paultag | you'll be needing that | 02:24 |
* zkriesse waves to paultag | 02:24 | |
paultag | hey zkriesse | 02:24 |
sinnet | i have jack control | 02:24 |
paultag | sinnet: that's for controlling the jack daemon | 02:24 |
sinnet | i configure the patches there | 02:24 |
paultag | sinnet: trust me, patchage | 02:24 |
paultag | sinnet: I use jack in my recording studio, patchage is the way to go | 02:25 |
sinnet | k will try mate | 02:25 |
paultag | sinnet: good luck :) | 02:25 |
sinnet | have you been using firefox in flash sites | 02:26 |
sinnet | with jackd daemon on?? | 02:26 |
sinnet | because it normally causes crashes here | 02:26 |
paultag | sinnet: no, it's a recording studio. I take MIDI and audio in and record it | 02:26 |
paultag | sinnet: I have a desktop for my normal work | 02:26 |
sinnet | you are lucky | 02:26 |
Vantrax | hey paultag | 02:26 |
paultag | and a netbook | 02:26 |
sinnet | i wish i could just use ffado throught pulseaudio | 02:26 |
paultag | heyya Vantrax | 02:26 |
Vantrax | i have a challange for you | 02:26 |
paultag | Vantrax: sup brother | 02:26 |
paultag | Vantrax: I'm here | 02:26 |
paultag | sinnet: aye | 02:26 |
paultag | sinnet: talk with the programmers who designed it | 02:27 |
Vantrax | ive been trying to find a way to chance the face browser logo without using ubuntu tweak | 02:27 |
paultag | Vantrax: what face logo? the icon? | 02:27 |
Vantrax | the Ubuntu logo | 02:27 |
sinnet | well, they are not very active paultag, besides, you know, when i turn on the firewire interface, i have to boot to windows first | 02:27 |
sinnet | so it can output sound | 02:27 |
paultag | Vantrax: /usr/share/icons | 02:27 |
paultag | sinnet: wtf | 02:27 |
paultag | Vantrax: just replace the dist-icon ( or something like that ) | 02:28 |
paultag | Vantrax: it's all in there | 02:28 |
Vantrax | that simple.... | 02:28 |
paultag | Vantrax: just make gnome-vantrax and mod the gnome/ theme | 02:28 |
paultag | Vantrax: don't forget the scalable svgs as well :) | 02:28 |
sinnet | its a bebob device, its just luck i can get it to work, because the developers dont have this exact model | 02:28 |
paultag | sinnet: keep bugging them | 02:29 |
sinnet | so it seems that when i start to windows it sends the mixer configuration | 02:29 |
paultag | sinnet: developers love that | 02:29 |
sinnet | i might try that | 02:29 |
paultag | sinnet: lets them know someone uses it | 02:29 |
Vantrax | paultag just want to change that one image, that is supposed to be a 64x64 png file | 02:29 |
paultag | Vantrax: wait... I think we are talking about two different things | 02:30 |
paultag | Vantrax: the GDM login, or once you are in GNOME ? | 02:30 |
Vantrax | gdm | 02:30 |
sinnet | paultag, how much time do you have using ubuntu? | 02:30 |
Vantrax | the face browser | 02:30 |
paultag | Vantrax: even easier!!! | 02:30 |
Vantrax | the applet you see | 02:30 |
paultag | Vantrax: /usr/share/icons, there is a folder for the GDM icon set | 02:30 |
Vantrax | which one is that? | 02:31 |
paultag | sinnet: since 2007, before that it was Debian from 05 ish, and before that Mandrake from 2001 | 02:31 |
paultag | Vantrax: sec, let me look it up. 10.04, yeah? | 02:31 |
Vantrax | yeah | 02:31 |
Vantrax | been trying to work this out for a few days | 02:31 |
paultag | Vantrax: LoginIcons | 02:31 |
paultag | Vantrax: Vantrax /usr/share/icons/LoginIcons/apps/64 | 02:32 |
paultag | Vantrax: eog computer.png | 02:32 |
paultag | Vantrax: that one ? | 02:32 |
Vantrax | that looks like it, ill back it up and swap it and see | 02:32 |
paultag | Vantrax: kk :) | 02:32 |
paultag | Vantrax: you can add a divert and add a .deb for your mod, and use that for your hack :D | 02:32 |
paultag | Vantrax: let me know :) | 02:35 |

paultag | zkriesse: what did they say? | 02:39 |
Vantrax | that did it paultag thanks | 02:39 |
paultag | Vantrax: sure thing, bud. Have a screenshot for me? I'd love to see the mod :) | 02:39 |
Vantrax | can you do a printscreen on the login? | 02:40 |
zkriesse | paultag: Dont remeber | 02:40 |
paultag | Vantrax: not sure | 02:40 |
sinnet | paultag: when you use a software that is not available or updated in repos, do you checkinstall or create a package?? | 02:40 |
paultag | sinnet: me personally? | 02:40 |
sinnet | Yes, what the seasoned users prefer | 02:41 |
sinnet | what's your approach | 02:41 |
paultag | sinnet: I wrote my own package manager I usually use, but before that I usually rolled a crude .deb. Checkinstall has issues, but is nice for the new user | 02:41 |
Vantrax | do we know what the screenshot app is called, i can run the desktop file on startup | 02:41 |
paultag | Vantrax: sec | 02:41 |
paultag | gnome-screenshot something | 02:41 |
paultag | sec | 02:41 |
paultag | Oh that's it | 02:41 |
paultag | Vantrax: gnome-screenshot | 02:41 |
sinnet | paultag: what kind of issues? (send me a link if you want) | 02:41 |
paultag | sinnet: with non-libtool make files I think it threw a shitfit. I can't recall exactly, but I remember it giving me shit, and one day I decided to ditch it | 02:42 |
paultag | it's debs sucked as well ( the output debs ) | 02:42 |
paultag | you would never give them to anyone | 02:42 |
sinnet | oh, yes, i read about that | 02:43 |
sinnet | so maybe the best approach would be to make crude debs?? | 02:43 |
paultag | second best is never the best | 02:44 |
sinnet | uum | 02:45 |
sinnet | did you release the packet manager or is just a little private project?? | 02:46 |
paultag | sinnet: it's not done yet | 02:46 |
paultag | sinnet: I never release unstable code as production | 02:46 |
sinnet | but the source is public? | 02:47 |
paultag | sinnet: yes, but undocumented, buggy and apt to drive one insane | 02:47 |
sinnet | lol.. | 02:47 |
sinnet | good luck with it mate | 02:47 |

JackJelinek | hey guys first time Ubuntu user, loving it so far but i have one question: does anyone know how to get a Creative Labs SB X-Fi Xtreme Audio 24-BIT PCI Sound Card working on the newest ubuntu distro? | 04:58 |
ddecator | that's very specific :) | 04:59 |
JackJelinek | well I've tried to google it and i can't find anything before 2008 and none of those have worked out for me | 04:59 |
ddecator | hm, i'm wondering where to look to see if the kernel supports the card.. | 05:00 |
JackJelinek | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=205449 | 05:00 |
JackJelinek | im trying to follow this to see if it even sees my card but i dont know | 05:01 |
ddecator | lspci | grep Audio | 05:02 |
JackJelinek | hmmm? | 05:03 |
ddecator | that command might show the card | 05:05 |
JackJelinek | this is what i got: 00:14.2 Audio device: ATI Technologies Inc SBx00 Azalia (Intel HDA) | 05:05 |
JackJelinek | 01:00.1 Audio device: ATI Technologies Inc HD48x0 audio | 05:05 |
ddecator | hm, a couple years ago they started adding X-Fi support to ALSA.. | 05:05 |
JackJelinek | what is ALSA? | 05:06 |
goodtime | i think its a script | 05:07 |
goodtime | like java | 05:07 |
ddecator | it used to manage sound on ubuntu, now pulse is used on top of it | 05:07 |
goodtime | lol | 05:07 |
JackJelinek | any idea what i can do to get this working then? its very boring being in this house with it totally silent :P | 05:08 |
goodtime | go to system topp bar | 05:08 |
goodtime | admin | 05:08 |
goodtime | hardwear drivers | 05:09 |
ddecator | it sounds like it should work out of box. it could be a few different things | 05:09 |
ddecator | the driver went opensource two years ago | 05:09 |
goodtime | huh | 05:09 |
JackJelinek | okay when i pressed hardware drivers i got ATI/AMD proprietary FGLRX graphics driver and thats it | 05:10 |
goodtime | yep | 05:10 |
ddecator | and the area on the creative site that hosts the opensource drivers won't load for me atm :/ | 05:10 |
goodtime | its what i did though i run 2 monitors well also | 05:11 |
JackJelinek | oh yeah if we're on the subject of that how do i enable both my monitors? hah im full of problems | 05:11 |
ddecator | goodtime: wanna help with that? ^ :) | 05:11 |
goodtime | took me 1 hour to figure that out | 05:11 |
ddecator | JackJelinek: the best i can find for the sound issue at the moment is here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingSoundProblems | 05:12 |
ddecator | definitely not ideal, it _should_ work automatically from the sound of things.. | 05:13 |
goodtime | i just go to the nivdia drive settings there and set it | 05:13 |
goodtime | this one will have togo to it anyhow | 05:13 |
ddecator | oh yah, nvidia has the separate xorg settings thing | 05:13 |
ddecator | i know xrandr was used to handle multiple monitors, but i can't remember if that's the current or the old way of doing it.. | 05:14 |
goodtime | yeah thats true | 05:15 |
JackJelinek | i recently reinstalled this and i did it somehow last time by getting the catalyst control thing... but i cant figure out how to download it again. Linux is confusing... | 05:15 |
ddecator | does System > Preferences > Monitors give the option to add multiple monitors? | 05:15 |
goodtime | yes | 05:15 |
ddecator | JackJelinek: any new OS is confusing at first :) | 05:16 |
goodtime | oh yeah | 05:16 |
JackJelinek | nope it says it only detects the one... except its on both at the same time | 05:16 |
goodtime | chose | 05:16 |
JackJelinek | what? | 05:17 |
JackJelinek | ill be right back | 05:17 |
JackJelinek | okay got both my monitors working :) | 05:18 |
goodtime | sweet | 05:19 |
ddecator | that's progress :) | 05:20 |
JackJelinek | if i install the alsa driver for this will that maybe enable sound? | 05:20 |
goodtime | update your system | 05:20 |
GoddessNemesis | anyone know about how much of the uk cant get online | 05:21 |
GoddessNemesis | ? | 05:21 |
goodtime | nope | 05:21 |
JackJelinek | update my system how exactly? I hate being such a noob in this. | 05:22 |
ddecator | GoddessNemesis: nope | 05:23 |
ddecator | JackJelinek: alsa is installed by default. you can update by using the terminal or running the update manager | 05:23 |
JackJelinek | hmmm... okay. | 05:24 |
GoddessNemesis | aww] | 05:25 |
JackJelinek | okay i just downloaded 201mb of updates so hopefully it will be somewhere in there | 05:29 |
ddecator | wow.. | 05:30 |
ddecator | JackJelinek: Ubuntu 10.04? | 05:30 |
JackJelinek | whichever is the most recent. | 05:30 |
JackJelinek | that sounds right... | 05:30 |
ddecator | yup :) | 05:30 |
ddecator | sounds like you may have never updated since installing | 05:30 |
JackJelinek | yeah i havent... so lets hope this works! | 05:31 |

Megamoose | trying to boot ubuntu 10.04 with old dv1000 hp laptop - hangs at broadcom bcm43# driver loading - i've turned off the wifi transceiver, no luck. Any ideas? thanks, | 05:31 |
Megamoose | instructions on updating firmware are very complicated - not something I know much about | 05:32 |
ddecator | Megamoose: did you install the proprietary broadcom driver? | 05:33 |
Megamoose | no, have not tried that as I don't get past the booting process - i'm working off a usb stick - gets hung up and doesnt let me get into ubunut | 05:34 |
Megamoose | is there a | 05:35 |
ddecator | ah, ok. did you see a log that told you it was freezing when trying to load the driver? | 05:35 |
Megamoose | a "safe" mode to boot up in? | 05:35 |
ddecator | there's a recovery mode you can choose from the GRUB boot menu | 05:35 |
Megamoose | yea, gave me a web page for firmware updates | 05:36 |
ddecator | a web page? | 05:37 |
goodtime | thats differnt | 05:37 |
Megamoose | trying to re-create to read the message | 05:38 |
Megamoose | the message reads (in part) [36.951154 ] ERROR: firmware file "b43-open/ucode5.fw" not found, go to http:/wireless.kernel.org/en/users/drivers/b43#device and download the correct firmware for this driver version | 05:43 |
Megamoose | also missing are "b43-open/ucode5.fw | 05:43 |
goodtime | oops | 05:44 |
ddecator | well that's strange.. | 05:44 |
Megamoose | my laptop model is not listed - when i go to that page | 05:44 |
goodtime | hrh | 05:44 |
ddecator | unfortunately i've never run into a firmware issue like that before, so i'm not sure what needs to be done.. | 05:46 |
kermiac | Megamoose: can you boot into the recovery console? | 05:47 |
ddecator | kermiac: hey mate :) | 05:47 |
kermiac | howdy ddecator :) | 05:48 |
Megamoose | sorry - dont know how to boot into recover console. | 05:48 |
Megamoose | i can get to the boot prompt - what do i do then? | 05:48 |
goodtime | tasksel i thing Megamoose | 05:49 |
goodtime | think* | 05:49 |
kermiac | ok, when you're booting hold the left shift... ok, then select the 2nd line (should have recovery mode in brackets at the end of the line) | 05:50 |
Megamoose | sorry - i'm a REAL newby! is "tasksel" a command? | 05:50 |
goodtime | Megamoose: what kermiac said | 05:51 |
kermiac | Megamoose: from the boot menu - select the 2nd line (should have recovery mode in brackets at the end of the line) | 05:52 |
Megamoose | i'm booting from usb stick - it tells me "loading /casper/vmlinuz | 05:52 |
kermiac | Megamoose: then press enter... after it continues to boot you should have another menu. ensure your ethernet cable is connected & select netroot | 05:53 |
kermiac | Megamoose: hang on | 05:53 |
kermiac | Megamoose: are you using a live usb? | 05:53 |
Megamoose | pluging in ethernet | 05:54 |
Megamoose | the usb stick is one i just made a few days ago - ubuntu 10.04 | 05:54 |
goodtime | cool | 05:55 |
kermiac | Megamoose: ok, at the bootmenu do you have something similar to http://apcmag.com/system/files/images/ubuntu30.jpg | 05:56 |
Megamoose | no, i dont get that far - i'm at the installer menu | 05:57 |
Megamoose | run ubuntu from this usb, install ubuntu on hard disk, etc. | 05:57 |
Megamoose | i have to stop the running to get to the boot prompt | 05:58 |
goodtime | so ypur live | 05:58 |
goodtime | your* | 05:58 |
Megamoose | if i type "live vga=771 noacpi nolacpi" at the boot prompt, then i get to the point where it hangs with that message abt the b43 firmware missing | 05:59 |
goodtime | so the copy is bad | 06:00 |
Megamoose | ive tried the same with a cd rom, downloaded twice the iso file... | 06:01 |
goodtime | idk about that much im a noob in many ways | 06:01 |
goodtime | heh | 06:02 |
Megamoose | gootime: you prob have this stuff more in your head then others since it's still fresh! I appreciate the help!! | 06:02 |
kermiac | Megamoose: did you check the md5sum of the iso to ensure it is not corrupted? | 06:02 |
Megamoose | yea, i should do that - but the stick works on a newer fujitsu laptop | 06:03 |
Megamoose | the fujitsu loads just fine | 06:03 |
goodtime | sweet | 06:03 |
kermiac | Megamoose: if it works on another pc fine then we can rule that out | 06:03 |
kermiac | Megamoose: have you tried booting with the wireless disabled? | 06:04 |
Megamoose | yes, disabled and still same | 06:04 |
kermiac | strange | 06:04 |
Megamoose | i can upload the error message as i took a pic | 06:04 |
kermiac | Megamoose: that would be good | 06:05 |
kermiac | Megamoose: also, what model laptop are you using? | 06:05 |
Megamoose | hp dv1000 | 06:05 |
Megamoose | OK, here's the error message i get: http://www.flickr.com/photos/17789024@N03/4708440572/sizes/l/ | 06:10 |
kermiac | Megamoose: can you try booting by adding "nomodeset" to your boot paremeter? so that would make it ""live vga=771 nomodeset" | 06:13 |
Megamoose | ok, will try | 06:13 |
Megamoose | giving me the littledots below ubuntu | 06:15 |
Megamoose | nope, no luck - same error message | 06:15 |
Megamoose | about the b43 firmware file | 06:15 |
Megamoose | even if i found the right firmware file, where would i put it? in the usb stick i would guess, but anywhere? | 06:16 |
kermiac | Megamoose: do you know what video card the laptop has? nvidia, intel or ati? | 06:20 |
Megamoose | intel | 06:20 |
Megamoose | kermiac; gotta reboot in windows to get the model | 06:21 |
kermiac | Megamoose: can you please try adding "i915.modeset=0" (w/o quotes) to your boot options | 06:23 |
Megamoose | ok, | 06:24 |
Megamoose | kermiac: ha!! i tried a brief other experiment: loading ubuntu 8.04 - it splashed the same error message but i'm in now - on 8.04 running off cd-rom!! | 06:28 |
kermiac | Megamoose: yeah, I am thinking that is more of a warning message & that the intel graphics & KMS is more likely to be the issue | 06:29 |
Megamoose | i'm trying your suggestion now | 06:29 |
kermiac | Megamoose: I can't find the ubuntu wiki page right now, but the kubuntu wiki page should be the same - https://wiki.kubuntu.org/X/Bugs/Lucidi8xxFreezes | 06:29 |
Megamoose | kermiac: running your suggestion now | 06:31 |

Megamoose | kermiac: sorry, same error message - only in bright red font color, go figure! | 06:33 |
kermiac | Megamoose: please look at the wiki page i linked above. I messed up the command option | 06:34 |
kermiac | Megamoose: please see the "From the Live CD Section" - Add "i915.modeset=1" after "quiet splash". | 06:34 |
Megamoose | kermiac: the "quiet splash" being the ubuntu logo with four dots below? | 06:36 |
kermiac | Megamoose: no, that should be part of the boot options on the livecd | 06:37 |
kermiac | Megamoose: 1) At the purple screen with a keyboard and stickfigure, press Enter to get to the menu. | 06:37 |
kermiac | 2) Hit Enter to select your language, and then press F6 and then Esc. | 06:37 |

kermiac | w00t! | 06:43 |
Megamoose | i did the complete line "live vga=771 noapic nolapic i915.modeset=1 | 06:44 |
Megamoose | it worked! | 06:44 |
kermiac | very good :) | 06:44 |
Megamoose | kermiac: thank you very much!! it's just about 11 pm in CA - i'm going to call it a night!! thank you very much again!! | 06:46 |
kermiac | no problems Megamoose, I'm glad it got sorted out for you :) | 06:46 |

JackJelinek | hey guys can someone help me enabling sound on ubuntu with my creative x-fi extreme audio | 18:26 |
JackJelinek | i had some people help me last night on this and i finally got ubuntu to recognize my card but on my KDE control module my card is greyed out and i can't actually use it. something came up saying KDE thought the sound card was unnessisary and could be removed.... any idea how to enable this card? | 18:27 |
zkriesse | !audio | 18:28 |
ubot2 | If you're having problems with sound, click the Volume applet, then Sound Preferences, and check your Volume, Hardware, Input, and Output settings. If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !players and !mp3. | 18:28 |
JackJelinek | now it says there is no hardware... | 18:31 |
JackJelinek | no one has any clue? | 18:37 |
zkriesse | JackJelinek: Ok please be patient... | 18:41 |

goodtime | apps/sound and video | 19:12 |
paultag | JackJelinek: your sound card is working fine, but the audio system is borked. Did you do anything toy our install? | 19:12 |
JackJelinek | not that i know of. | 19:13 |
paultag | JackJelinek: did you install or remove anything that might be noteworthy | 19:13 |
JackJelinek | nope. I gave up about a month ago and never booted into ubuntu since yesterday when i wanted to get this all running so i dont really remember if i did or not | 19:14 |
JackJelinek | is there anyway i can fix it? | 19:14 |
paultag | JackJelinek: it's very complex, there is a lot that makes up the sound system. The easiest way is to reinstall. This problem should _never_ happen, but for some reason you got lucky and got no sound daemons | 19:15 |
JackJelinek | ive had to reinstall ubuntu so many times. sometimes when i installed it the GRUB or something was gone i guess | 19:15 |
JackJelinek | other times my video card wouldnt work | 19:16 |
paultag | JackJelinek: man you are not lucking out :( | 19:16 |
JackJelinek | ubuntu does not like me... | 19:16 |
paultag | JackJelinek: you can try #pulseaudio | 19:16 |
paultag | JackJelinek: they should know better then me, just explain your whole soundsystem is missing and you don't have /dev/mixer | 19:16 |
paultag | JackJelinek: be sure to tell them you are new and to go easy on the terminal stuff ;) | 19:17 |
JackJelinek | thanks a lot for all your help | 19:18 |

Ironreaper | Ok, I updated and now my window manager will not work upon startup, I go into system and preferences, Visual effects and set it to Normal and it works. | 22:07 |
Ironreaper | Anyone have an Idea of why its doing this, did not happen till after I updated | 22:07 |
zkriesse | Ironreaper: how did you install | 22:07 |
Ironreaper | The updates? | 22:07 |
zkriesse | Ironreaper: did you upgrade or do a full fresh install | 22:07 |
zkriesse | No, Ubuntu | 22:08 |
zkriesse | I assume that's what you're using | 22:08 |
Ironreaper | Full fresh install, about 2 months ago. | 22:08 |
zkriesse | Ok | 22:08 |
zkriesse | What distro | 22:08 |
zkriesse | I mean what version | 22:08 |
Ironreaper | No problems till after recent updates | 22:08 |
Ironreaper | 10.04 64 bit | 22:08 |
zkriesse | Hm | 22:08 |
Ironreaper | The updates have ruined everything | 22:09 |
zkriesse | Might be because of the 64 bit | 22:09 |
Ironreaper | I used to play games, using Wine emulator | 22:09 |
zkriesse | Ok | 22:09 |
zkriesse | And? | 22:09 |
Ironreaper | and the recent Nvidia update that I installed yesterday has rendered my computer useless to games | 22:09 |
Ironreaper | says I do not have a 3D accelerator | 22:09 |
Ironreaper | I do believe I will reinstall completely and never update. | 22:10 |
zkriesse | Well it's good to update as it fixes bug patches and such | 22:10 |
zkriesse | have you tried searching for any length of time or are you just frustrated and don't care | 22:11 |
zkriesse | because being frustrated about this will NOT solve anything | 22:11 |
Ironreaper | I have been searching for 3 days now | 22:11 |
Ironreaper | finally figured out it was my window manager | 22:11 |

Vantrax | what format is it in | 22:32 |
ZeRoDeAtH50435 | never mind I got it | 22:33 |
ZeRoDeAtH50435 | thanks | 22:33 |
ZeRoDeAtH50435 | ok now it says that my video card is unsupported | 22:35 |
ZeRoDeAtH50435 | I do not know what drivers to download | 22:38 |
ZeRoDeAtH50435 | what is the command to look at my hardware | 22:44 |
phillw | ZeRoDeAtH50435: try lspci | 22:48 |
phillw | lspci | grep video | 22:49 |
ZeRoDeAtH50435 | did nothing | 22:51 |
Flare183 | ZeRoDeAtH50435: do it in the terminal | 22:51 |
ZeRoDeAtH50435 | I did | 22:51 |
Flare183 | ZeRoDeAtH50435: try this: lspci | grep VGA | 22:52 |
Flare183 | phillw: I hope that helps | 22:52 |
ZeRoDeAtH50435 | ok that worked | 22:52 |
ZeRoDeAtH50435 | my system is up to date but I still get "video card unsupported" | 22:56 |
ZeRoDeAtH50435 | downloaded the linux version but it was a exe file | 22:57 |
Flare183 | ZeRoDeAtH50435: that's wubi | 22:57 |
ZeRoDeAtH50435 | ? | 22:57 |
* Flare183 doesn't think that's the real linux | 22:57 | |
Flare183 | ZeRoDeAtH50435: that's really windows adapted linux | 22:57 |
Flare183 | >.< | 22:58 |
ZeRoDeAtH50435 | o | 22:58 |
ZeRoDeAtH50435 | great | 22:58 |
Flare183 | ZeRoDeAtH50435: The real linux, is only seen by you burning the ISO to a CD, and booting off the CD | 22:58 |
ZeRoDeAtH50435 | but it was not a ISO | 22:59 |
Flare183 | then you got the wrong thing | 23:00 |
Flare183 | ZeRoDeAtH50435: 32bit or 64bit? | 23:00 |
ZeRoDeAtH50435 | http://www.regnumonline.com.ar/index.php?l=1&sec=31&login=1 | 23:00 |
ZeRoDeAtH50435 | 64bit | 23:00 |

ZeRoDeAtH50435 | yeah the MMOs I played on win will not work on linux | 23:05 |
phillw | winehq.org has a list of various ones, along with how well they work. | 23:07 |
phillw | regnum is rated platinum, which is the best rating. | 23:07 |
ZeRoDeAtH50435 | I do not know what drivers I need to install to get it to work | 23:09 |
* phillw is not a gamer, but it is often asked questions. There are two places you can look for things on wine, http://forum.winehq.org/ and the ubuntu area at http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=313 either should be able to help you. | 23:11 | |
ZeRoDeAtH50435 | do you know anything about openGL | 23:12 |
phillw | fraid not, the people at the gaming section may be of help http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=93 | 23:17 |
phillw | the ubuntu forum is not just about fixing broken installations :-) | 23:17 |
ZeRoDeAtH50435 | is their a way to make a recovery disk on ubuntu | 23:24 |
Flare183 | !recovery | ZeRoDeAtH50435 | 23:26 |
ubot2 | ZeRoDeAtH50435: To rescue a broken system, boot the alternate install CD and select "Rescue a broken system" | 23:26 |
ZeRoDeAtH50435 | that will not here me if I put win7 back on my laptop | 23:27 |
phillw | it depends one what you define as a rescue disk, you can 'photo-copy' your installation to use in case you really break something. having a seperate /home area is always a good idea if you like tinkering with things, as that stores all your own data | 23:27 |
phillw | ZeRoDeAtH50435: you can make an area under the ubuntu installation that win will 'see' and install on, if you're using a win rescue disk, then you need to take a partition backup of your system to ensure you have everything | 23:28 |
paultag | Hey all, I have a question about file systems. I'm looking to layer two filesystems, read from the primary one, and if it's not there, read from the secondary from the same mount point | 23:29 |
ZeRoDeAtH50435 | yeah | 23:29 |
paultag | e.g. mount partition 1, with a pristine tree, and then mount partition 2 over partition one to catch all writes | 23:29 |
phillw | as a win rescue disk, as opposed to a 'real' win disk will re-format your hard drive. | 23:29 |
ZeRoDeAtH50435 | I plan on removing win when I find the exact graphics card that this laptop uses | 23:30 |
paultag | then unmount partition one, and have all changes on partition 2 | 23:30 |
ZeRoDeAtH50435 | then this will not work because all I have is a win7 recovery disk | 23:31 |
phillw | ZeRoDeAtH50435: well, it depends on what you have to use a backup media as to how & what to backup | 23:31 |
ZeRoDeAtH50435 | I will to back up my hole system the way it is right now | 23:31 |
ZeRoDeAtH50435 | I have a few OS in vbox also | 23:32 |
ZeRoDeAtH50435 | want | 23:32 |
phillw | ZeRoDeAtH50435: you could at using pybackpack http://www.ubuntugeek.com/pybackpack-a-user-friendly-file-backup-tool-for-ubuntu-linux-desktop.html or clonezilla http://clonezilla.org/ they are both fairly straight forward to use | 23:33 |
ZeRoDeAtH50435 | ok I'll check them out thanks | 23:34 |
phillw | paultag: AFAIK you cannot mount two partitions on one mount point, but i think you can divert writes. | 23:36 |
paultag | phillw, do you know how, perchance? Even a write redirect would be a godsend | 23:38 |
phillw | paultag: 'fraid not. | 23:42 |
paultag | kk ty phillw | 23:42 |
paultag | /away bbl | 23:42 |
aveilleux | awayfail, paultag :P | 23:43 |
