Nightrose | maco already helped me reinstall the xorg packages with aptitude | 00:26 |
Nightrose | but that didn't help | 00:26 |
vu1kan | t_pol: right-click your panel, choose 'add to panel...' and add 'network monitor" | 00:26 |
sjm | trece8: you're probably stuck with either something like ssvnc or setting up squid for a proxy. | 00:27 |
trece8 | damn | 00:27 |
trece8 | thanks anyway, bye | 00:27 |
PoisonSerpent | nope | 00:28 |

ZykoticK9 | Nightrose, do you currently have an xorg.conf file? if so, move it to a new name, and try restarting X/GDM. | 00:28 |
t_pol | vulkan, i already tried that but unfortunately i do not have the choice | 00:28 |
PoisonSerpent | but jokosher picks it up and records with it just fine | 00:28 |

PoisonSerpent | wait | 00:30 |
PoisonSerpent | scratch that, jokosher doesnt work with my mic | 00:31 |
PoisonSerpent | it just records static | 00:31 |
anigma | does ubuntu use a firewall by default? | 00:31 |
ZykoticK9 | Nightrose, you should find out your model, in a terminal you can run "lspci | grep -i vga" and it should return your gfx card | 00:31 |
maco | anigma: enabled by default, yes, but not configured | 00:31 |
m4dm4x | PosionSerpent: sorry, i was away, did the live cd work? | 00:32 |

anigma | could it be ufw? | 00:33 |
t_pol | vulkan i have just added the notification applet, i have no notification area that i can choose, but it does not do anything except an icon to configure my email, and another one to control the volume | 00:33 |
t_pol | i am at a loss here | 00:33 |
maco | anigma: ufw is a frontend to it, yes | 00:33 |
maco | anigma: ufw is simply a wrapper to iptables | 00:33 |
anigma | ah | 00:33 |
h00k | !firewall | Andy-at-home | 00:34 |
ubottu | Andy-at-home: 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 | An alternative to ufw is the 'iptables' command - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo | GUI frontends such as Firestarter/Gufw (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE) also exist. | 00:34 |

t_pol | vu1kan=> how come when i right click the panel i cannot choose that option? | 00:35 |
vu1kan | t_pol: of course my install is an upgrade from 8.04->10.04, so i may have some quirks in gnome | 00:35 |

Yossi | i just updated from 9.10 to 10.04 and my mouse pointer disapeared after reboot | 00:47 |
rww | t_pol, vu1kan: the network manager applet isn't an actual gnome applet, it's a program that runs in the normal gnome notification area. if it's not automatically running, make sure you have a notification area and run "nm-applet" manually. | 00:47 |

fumanchu182 | has anyone had libgcflashplayer.so crash recently when trying to go fullscreen? | 00:49 |
t_pol | vu1kan=> actually everything is already installed, so what you are basically asking me is to uninstall and reinstall everything right? | 00:49 |
kostkon | Yossi, for a start, check what theme you are using in system → preferences → appearance. Click on your current theme and press the customize button. | 00:49 |
t_pol | yet that does not explain why it disappeared like that overnight | 00:50 |
Yossi | then | 00:50 |
Yossi | ? | 00:50 |
vu1kan | rww: synaptic's description of the package states: "This package contains a systray applet for GNOME's notification area" | 00:50 |
vu1kan | t_pol: if you already have the package, i dunno why you can't add the monitor to your panel, i think your issue is beyond my skillset | 00:51 |
rww | vu1kan: "systray" is a technically-incorrect term for "notification area" | 00:51 |
rww | it is not a right-click-add-to-panel applet. | 00:51 |
Wopak | Can anyone possibly know how i can upgrade Feisty 7.04 to 7.10 hence the automatic update page doesnt work? | 00:51 |

zwqg | hi, does anyone know how to make the windows key act like a normal key instead of a modifier (i.e. the old behavior) | 00:52 |
bazhang | Wopak, neither of those is still supported | 00:52 |
kostkon | Yossi, try selecting a different one | 00:52 |
vu1kan | rww: i get that, but even with the notification area added t_pol doesn't have that applet, nor are they able to add the systray independant monitor to the panel | 00:52 |
Wopak | bazhang solution? :P | 00:52 |
Yossi | didn't fix it | 00:53 |
bazhang | Wopak, at this point making a separate home partition and installing a fresh, supported version would be optimal | 00:53 |

ubottu | Wopak: Your home directory is where all of your personal files are usually kept. For moving your home directory to a separate partition, please see: http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/separatehome | 00:53 |

rww | Wopak: personally, I'd recommend a reinstall, but there are the instructions if you feel like engaging in tedium | 00:54 |
vu1kan | t_pol: one last package to try would be the gnome-netstatus-applet | 00:54 |
* rww sighs | 00:55 |
bazhang | Wopak, more recent version (ie Lucid Lynx , 10.04) can achieve that much more readily | 00:55 |
Wopak | My main goal is to possibly run an emulator and use windows or dualboot windows | 00:55 |
Wopak | hence the ubuntu must remain as it is cous its a company laptop and has to stay with software provided by the company without lateration in the core OS or its settings :( | 00:55 |
kostkon | Yossi, there is a possibility that it's related to compiz. you could check your compiz prefs. | 00:55 |
Yossi | ok | 00:56 |
Wopak | only choice was to possibly do a minor update to 7.10 | 00:56 |
kostkon | Yossi, if you don't have the ccsm installed already, the package is called "compizconfig-settings-manager" | 00:56 |
Wopak | :) | 00:56 |
rww | Wopak: upgrading 7.10 to a supported Ubuntu version is nowhere near a "minor update" | 00:56 |
Wopak | 7.04 to 7.10 :) | 00:56 |
Wopak | i run feisty 7.04 | 00:57 |
Wopak | to 7.10 is a minor upgrade | 00:57 |
Wopak | :D | 00:57 |
Yossi | i would rather not use compiz at all | 00:57 |
Wopak | xD | 00:57 |
FloodBot2 | Wopak: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 00:57 |
rww | Wopak: no, it's not. distro upgrades aren't minor, unsupported ones doubly so | 00:57 |
sebsebseb | Wopak: you should upgrade to at least 8.04 | 00:57 |
Yossi | compiz is off, but the problem persists | 00:58 |

hiexpo | sebsebseb, - what u mean anti spam got him ? | 01:32 |
sebsebseb | hiexpo: idoru thought he was spamming when he asked his question, so banned him | 01:33 |
sebsebseb | sometimes that bot msses up | 01:33 |
cultclassic | oooh thanks Loshki. didn't there was a group here. | 01:33 |
hiexpo | bummer | 01:33 |
rww | sebsebseb: and this is why one shouldn't crosspost to a bunch of channels (which is what I assume they did) | 01:33 |
Loshki | cultclassic: last I looked, there were 8669 groups on freenode... | 01:34 |
sebsebseb | rww: well looks like another innocent user, got effected by the bot | 01:34 |
cultclassic | lol ty This is my first day here... | 01:34 |
cultclassic | I joined because of the FLOSS weekly podcast | 01:34 |
rww | sebsebseb: and now they have an object lesson in not crossposting ;P | 01:35 |
Loshki | rww: Ah, I wondered what triggered the spam-eater. Kinda scary... | 01:35 |
rww | Loshki: I'm assuming that's what it is. Or idoru is becoming sentient and killing off anyone who notices. Who knows. | 01:35 |

Loshki | silentx1: sorry, I saw your question but don't know the answer... | 01:49 |

h00k | !anyone | dumb_dumb | 01:50 |
ubottu | dumb_dumb: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? | 01:50 |
Shinydan | ahhh, I see. So you don't actually use the left-click dropdown stuff. | 01:50 |
Loshki | Shinydan: remember to use 'image mode' when burning system DVDs, ok? | 01:50 |
JCakeC | I have a project for creating an interactive presentation and I need to choose OS. my main concern is: the computer will not be as secure as I would like it to be, so anyone could get to the machine... | 01:51 |
JCakeC | I need to lock the main display but prevent the external video output from beign blocked out | 01:51 |
JCakeC | can this be possible with linux? | 01:51 |
fumanchu182 | can someone help me install the dbg packages necessary for firefox? | 01:52 |
fumanchu182 | to work with gdb? | 01:52 |
Shinydan | Loshki - that was my next question. Looting the help files now... | 01:52 |
DarkStar1 | silentx1: Did this happen after the update because you're the second person I've seen to have this problem | 01:52 |
Loshki | JCakeC: to be honest, if someone can get access to the machine physically, they can take it over. I don't think there's any 100% reliable way to secure it... | 01:53 |
Loshki | Shinydan: k3b should recognise that it's an ISO and 'do the right thing' automatically... | 01:53 |
silentx1 | DarkStar1: I always update everything .. | 01:53 |
Shinydan | I'm getting a hash error on downloading k3b. | 01:54 |
JCakeC | Loshki: I know, but I can "lock" it so the main screen and the system cannot be used | 01:54 |
DarkStar1 | silentx1: That's true for everyone but It helps if we know what action you performed last before this symptom cropped up | 01:54 |
JCakeC | while the external monitor keeps showing the video/interactive animation | 01:54 |

Loshki | Shinydan: are you using a dial up modem to download? | 01:56 |
Shinydan | No. | 01:56 |
silentx1 | DarkStar1: ummm I left the labtop in bad temp. and now windows is not working too ..!! but I didn't notice if there is that problem or not ... but I think it is new .. | 01:56 |
JCakeC | Loshki: thanks a lot... | 01:56 |
Shinydan | Was using Ubuntu Software Centre. Package Manager seems to be working though. | 01:57 |
DarkStar1 | Ooohh... possible hardware damage can manifest itself in a number of ways | 01:57 |
Loshki | Shinydan: it's very rare to get corrupted downloads over broadband. Has this happened before? | 01:58 |
Shinydan | No. But I have k3b now. | 01:58 |
iflema | JCakeC laptop? set lid shut to blank screen, shut the lid and put a sign "dont touch" and kick the arse of anyone who opens it........ | 01:59 |
Loshki | Shinydan: ok, crank it up, and open the ISO file inside k3b. You should get a menu for burning... | 01:59 |
DarkStar1 | silentx1: when you got back had the laptop reset? | 01:59 |
Shinydan | Loshki: No optical drive found. K3b did not find any optical device in your system. Solution: Make sure HAL daemon is running, it is used by K3b for finding devices. | 01:59 |
silentx1 | DarkStar1: I'm going to do that .. you're reading my thoughts .. Then I'll back here again if the problem persists .. | 02:00 |
Loshki | Shinydan: out of the frying pan... Did brasero find the drive? | 02:00 |
JCakeC | iflema: I will not be there for the whole presentation runtime... so that is not a fair solution (believe me I thought of it as a last resort) | 02:00 |
DarkStar1 | silentx1: Ok.. Good luck | 02:00 |
JCakeC | iflema: I also thought of getting a desktop and taking out the monitor so they can just see the box there... | 02:01 |
silentx1 | DarkStar1: Thanks you too .. BBye .. | 02:01 |
JCakeC | but I wan thinking a more elegant way... locking the computer. The problem is that if I lock it out, all monitors go blank... | 02:01 |
Shinydan | Loshki - no. | 02:01 |
melkor | if I run sudo shutdown now my computer hangs at shutdown, if I use the gnome panel it shuts down fine. | 02:02 |
JCakeC | I know it's the way it sould be, but in this case... I need it to behave differently... :S | 02:02 |
Loshki | JCakeC: there are releases called 'kiosk' distributions. One of those might be what you need... | 02:02 |
Shinydan | Nautilus does, fwiw. | 02:02 |
aztek[tum] | any ideas on temp monitoring a power supply | 02:02 |
Loshki | Shinydan: you may have a hardware problem. Did this drive ever work? | 02:02 |
Shinydan | yes. | 02:02 |
JCakeC | loshki: I'll go look for them right now... | 02:02 |
Shinydan | but it was a while back. | 02:02 |
DarkStar1 | melkor: that's odd. what is the command you're using to shutdown? | 02:03 |
melkor | sudo shutdown now | 02:03 |
vintner | does anyone know of an alternative to newsleecher that runs on nix? | 02:03 |
melkor | DarkStar1: I've tried -h also. | 02:03 |
DarkStar1 | melkor: there are options to go with that | 02:03 |
Loshki | Shinydan: open a terminal, and type: dmesg | egrep -i cd-rom | 02:04 |
DarkStar1 | melkor: hang on a sec let me load the options | 02:04 |
Loshki | Shinydan: do you get any output? | 02:04 |
DarkStar1 | melkor: Can never remember options that go with needless CLI commands :D | 02:04 |

Shinydan | Loshki - yes. | 02:05 |
Loshki | Shinydan: can you paste the output to http://ubuntu.pastebin.com please | 02:05 |
melkor | DarkStar1: its pretty nice, because I can set it to d/load something and then have it shutdown it 2 hours. or 15 minutes, but it hangs when I do it now. | 02:05 |
JCakeC | iflema: but when I lock them the video outputs are blacked out (and I need the 2nd display to always be showing the interactive presentation) | 02:06 |
DarkStar1 | melkor: where does the process hang? | 02:06 |
Shinydan | Loshki: done | 02:06 |
melkor | DarkStar1: at the splash screen, it goes through the dots a couple of times and then hangs. | 02:06 |
Loshki | Shinydan: what was the url it gave you :-) | 02:06 |
melkor | DarkStar1: I'm not sure where the error would be log'd either, maybe an older sys.log that the one dmesg shows? | 02:06 |
Shinydan | oh, whoops | 02:06 |
Shinydan | http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/JD3QnagM | 02:07 |
iflema | JCakeC are you worried it will be stopped? bios boot password and even encrypted HD with a profile that cant do basically anything | 02:07 |
starnostar_ | anyone know if its possible to force lan traffic through eth0 and internet traffic through wlan0? | 02:07 |
iflema | JCakeC im pretty sure the function you after does not exist.... Have you seen this used else where? | 02:08 |
melkor | starnostar_: whats the difference? | 02:08 |
Loshki | Shinydan: ok that's good, it means the kernel detected your sony dvd-rw at /dev/sr0. Next, try running 'sudo eject /dev/sr0'. Does the dvd door open? | 02:08 |
d0x | Hi i'm upgrading to 10.04 today and i wan't to encrypt my whole disk now. Does anyone have a good howto for a new installation? | 02:08 |
synth | Has anyone attempted to find appropriate patches to compile fglrx from ATI's 9.3 driver download on Ubuntu 10.04? It's historically been patched by hand for .29 kernel and higher because of various changes in the driver interfaces... but 10.04 now runs 2.6.32 which I cant find patches against. I've searched the web for days, please anyone with insight lend a hand? the reason for 9.3 is because my ATI is an X300, support was dropped | 02:08 |
synth | afterwards. free driver is horrible | 02:08 |
DarkStar1 | melkor: I'm not an expert log reader or Linux user yet but, have you tried using the -P option and seeing if the system does things differently? | 02:08 |
JCakeC | iflema: I'm worried they mess around with the system. I can script it to prevent shutdown (just restart) and make it start the presentation again on boot) | 02:08 |
starnostar_ | i need to monitor my bandwidth and im having a heck of a time finding something like vnstat that seperates the two, thought it might be easier to just split the connections up | 02:08 |
melkor | DarkStar1: I could try it. | 02:08 |
iflema | JCakeC if the profile cant reboot + the rest your safe | 02:09 |
Shinydan | Loshki - no, it didn't. | 02:09 |
Loshki | Shinydan: any error message? | 02:09 |
melkor | starnostar_: does each one have its own ip address? | 02:09 |
JCakeC | iflema: that's my concern, and that's why I'm looking on Linux... as MS and MAC can't be easily hacked | 02:09 |
DarkStar1 | melkor: Reason I suggest this is because the system can behave however it like with the -h option | 02:09 |
Shinydan | Loshki - no error message. | 02:09 |
starnostar_ | i can give each its own, through my router, my wifi isnt even on right now | 02:09 |
Loshki | Shinydan: ok, please run 'sudo hdparm -I /dev/sr0' and pastebin the output... | 02:09 |
JCakeC | iflema: I'll try to test all possible scenarios then... | 02:10 |
iflema | JCakeC bios password use a livecd | 02:10 |
Loshki | starnostar_: what about one of these: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/bandwidth-monitoring-tools-for-ubuntu-users.html | 02:10 |
JCakeC | iflema: custom built livecd... hmmm... sounds interesting | 02:10 |
Shinydan | Loshki: done, same url | 02:10 |
melkor | starnostar_: I know there are some linux tools for that, though there might be some nice gtk versions too. You could try #debian or #linux if you don't get any answers here. | 02:11 |
starnostar_ | tried ALL of those, still cant figure out a way to seperate the two streams of data | 02:11 |
DarkStar1 | starnostar_: What you're trying to do is akin to what a router does, but it requires giving each interface is own seperate address and subnet | 02:11 |
Shinydan | http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/JD3QnagM | 02:11 |
iflema | JCakeC maybe... hackety hackety..... a friend perhaps... :) | 02:11 |
Loshki | Shinydan: are you sure? I get the same (old) output when I refresh the page? | 02:11 |
starnostar_ | most of them are realtime and dont log traffic, im on a cap and have a lot of data moving around | 02:12 |
JCakeC | iflema: yeah... when system can't do what you want, stick to procedures, right? | 02:12 |
Shinydan | http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/Vs9jzS7N apologies. | 02:12 |
smallfoot- | ATI, Intel and Nouveau supports kernel mode-setting, does VESA / VGA / default fallback driver support KMS? | 02:12 |
smallfoot- | does VirtualBox support kernel-mode setting in Ubuntu? | 02:12 |
melkor | smallfoot-: to your first question I am going to guess no. | 02:13 |
DarkStar1 | starnostar_: MAnually assign a subnet IP address to the interface you need to route Lan traffic | 02:13 |
Niglop | how can I broadcast a radio station on linux | 02:13 |
starnostar_ | im not a networking guru, does it matter which subnet and do i do this through the router or the network preferences? | 02:13 |
smallfoot- | someone needs make a list of what cards are support by KMS | 02:14 |
melkor | smallfoot-: there probably is one for the different vendors. | 02:14 |
starnostar_ | and do i have to assign the same subnet to the other lan computers | 02:14 |
iflema | JCakeC its possible, but for one presentation.... | 02:14 |
smallfoot- | melkor, well should be a list of vendors supported by KMS | 02:14 |
Loshki | Shinydan: ooh, that's *not* what the output is supposed to look like. At all. You could try rebooting, making sure you power down between reboots so the hardware gets a full reset. If it still doesn't work, I'd suspect the drive is broken... | 02:14 |
Shinydan | Right. I'll be back shortly. | 02:15 |
Niglop | how can I broadcast a radio station on linux | 02:15 |
starnostar_ | what would be even better is if i could get vnstat to ignore lan traffic | 02:15 |
kostkon | Niglop, you can use icecast | 02:15 |
melkor | Niglop: to you have a transmitter? | 02:15 |
DarkStar1 | starnostar_: YEs. If an address is part of a subnet it would need to go through a gateway to contact any addresses outside the subnet | 02:15 |
Niglop | let me download one, which one is least bandwidth consuming | 02:15 |
Niglop | i am capped ;( | 02:16 |
melkor | starnostar_: more than likely you are using one interface. | 02:16 |

JCakeC | iflema: well, I'd like to do it as a challenge... and it's an interactive presentation (camera, IR camera, laser, multitouch)... and the main screen will hold the configuration screen for the app, so it's worth the try just for 1 presentation | 02:16 |
Niglop | kostkon> melkor couldnt find package transmitter or icecast | 02:16 |
melkor | Niglop: I meant the hardware, literally a transmitter. | 02:17 |
melkor | Niglop: You have music and you want to start an internet radio station? | 02:17 |
Niglop | i mean an online radio not like a radio radio | 02:17 |
Niglop | l0l | 02:17 |
Niglop | yeah melkor | 02:17 |
iflema | JCakeC sounds like fun.... good luck | 02:18 |
=== Niglop is now known as Adem |
Adem | greetings Dr_Willis | 02:18 |
JCakeC | iflema: thanks... I'll need it... | 02:18 |
=== Adem is now known as Niglop |
Niglop | yeah melkor i have music and want to play it on an internet radio station | 02:18 |
melkor | Niglop: where did you look for icecast. You could google it. | 02:18 |
Niglop | i tried apt-get in terminal melkor | 02:19 |
Shinydan | back. Loshki, I have a new pastebin addy for you if you don't mind? | 02:19 |
thune3_ | starnostar_: for "totals" monitoring /proc/net/dev has totals since boot, and ifstat can give you a realtime view of each interface. | 02:19 |
Loshki | Shinydan: type away! | 02:19 |
Shinydan | http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/bxA8tzzY | 02:19 |
DarkStar1 | starnostar_: still here? | 02:19 |
starnostar_ | ya | 02:19 |
HaPK_PerCar | hi people | 02:20 |
starnostar_ | but can ifstat differentiate between lan traffic and internet traffic? | 02:20 |
Loshki | Shinydan: excellent. That's what the output *should* look like. So try k3b again... | 02:20 |
kostkon | Niglop, it's "icecast2" | 02:20 |
melkor | Niglop: google it, then check out Synaptic, icecast server finds some stuff, but you might want to read a little before you install. | 02:20 |
HaPK_PerCar | Does someone knows of an AV that scans for virus in NTFS partittions, and clens them? | 02:20 |
Niglop | i downloaded the tarball frm google, let me unzip 1 sec | 02:20 |
melkor | Niglop: icecast2 is in the repos. | 02:21 |
DarkStar1 | starnostar_: (it's 2am here and I'm not fully complete upstairs so bear with me here) you give each of your interface addresses that belong to separate subnets and the rest of the job need to be done at your routing station | 02:21 |
kostkon | Niglop, or just give sudo apt-get install icecast2 | 02:21 |
Niglop | ok 1 sec koshie | 02:21 |
lickwid | Hi all, I'm having a bit of trouble booting 10.04 if anyone's free to help. | 02:21 |
Niglop | kostkon> * | 02:21 |
HaPK_PerCar | lickwid, what the problem exactly? | 02:21 |
sebsebseb | lickwid: Whats the exact problem? | 02:21 |
starnostar_ | so how do i change the subnet, im in network connections now | 02:21 |
Shinydan | Loshki: Looks like you've cracked it for me. K3b is doing the checksum now... | 02:21 |
lickwid | I'm dual-booting Windows 7 and 10.04 - when I choose 10.04 at the GRUB menu, about 75% of the time I just get a blinking cursor afterwards. | 02:22 |
DarkStar1 | starnostar_: assuming you don't want the LAN traffic interface contacting the outside world, you would have to set that at it's gateway (which would be your router in this case) | 02:22 |
Niglop | kostkon> i got icecast 2, now what? | 02:22 |
Loshki | Shinydan: well, it's not completely done until the burn completes, and the verification passes, but this is major progress... | 02:22 |
Shinydan | *nods* | 02:22 |
kostkon | Niglop, you can follow this guide for example http://www.howtoforge.com/linux_webradio_with_icecast2_ices2 | 02:22 |
HaPK_PerCar | lickwid, maybe you'll have to reinstall the GRUB | 02:22 |
iflema | JCakeC make a transparent screensaver | 02:22 |
Niglop | sec | 02:22 |
lickwid | HaPK_PerCar, sebsebseb - more details here: http://ubuntu-ky.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1519632 | 02:22 |
kostkon | Niglop, to setup your server | 02:22 |
DarkStar1 | starnostar_: so your LAN interface device should only be seeing packet traffic from the LAN | 02:22 |
lickwid | I've tried reinstalling GRUB already. | 02:22 |
NetersLandreau | i bought a new tv last night and am trying to hook up my computer via hdmi.. when i try to connect my tv as a monitor, it is not detected.. vga works fine at the office.. what do i need to do? | 02:23 |
DarkStar1 | starnostar_: Hope that helps you draw a picture in your head? | 02:23 |
JCakeC | iflema: interesting approach... | 02:23 |
starnostar_ | somewhat... | 02:23 |
starnostar_ | looking through my router config page now | 02:23 |
iflema | JCakeC but is activated the password promt would be visable.... | 02:24 |
=== bastidrazor is now known as bastid_raZor |
JCakeC | but not on both screens... | 02:24 |
Loshki | NetersLandreau: try also asking on #mythtv-users. Those guys know tons about connecting PCs to TVs... | 02:25 |
HaPK_PerCar | lickwid, this may sound a bit extreme, but maybe you'll have to use anothe booter, like lilo | 02:25 |
smallfoot- | can i easily switch between nvidia-glx and nouveau? | 02:25 |
NetersLandreau | thx Loshki :) | 02:25 |
HaPK_PerCar | lickwid, I can't help you more, sorry | 02:25 |
lickwid | HaPK_PerCar, how would I replace the GRUB with lilo? | 02:25 |
DarkStar1 | starnostar_: Never tried such a thing with a routing device, but it should have something to do with either your routing table or NAT (or both) and set the DCHP server to assign the addresses correctly. This is assuming your router is capable ofc. | 02:26 |
sebsebseb | lickwid: ok yeah just as I thought | 02:26 |
sebsebseb | lickwid: Plymouth issue or something | 02:26 |
HaPK_PerCar | HaPK_PerCar, I don't really know, sorry | 02:26 |
Shinydan | Loshki: sudo chown Loshko ~/beer | 02:26 |
digimer | Anyone here familiar with changing a DVD-RW's region code? (ubuntu 10.04 x86_64) | 02:26 |
starnostar_ | dgl-4500 /w 1.15 firmware | 02:26 |
Loshki | Shinydan: did it finish? | 02:26 |
HaPK_PerCar | Does someone knows of an AV that scans for virus in NTFS partittions, and clens them? | 02:26 |
lickwid | sebsebseb - yeah, when it loads it comes up with something about plymouth and a kill command? | 02:26 |
sebsebseb | lickwid: basically Ubuntu 10.04 uses a new boot up and also for shut down called Plymouth, its great in Mandriva, its good in Fedora I guess, well last time I tried Fedora was Fedora 11. and it sucks in Ubuntu 10.04 for loads of people with propritary Nivida or ATI drivers | 02:26 |
JCakeC | iflema: I found how to turn the black screen screensaver to transparent with compiz... I'll try it later... thanks. | 02:26 |
Loshki | !virus | HaPK_PerCar | 02:27 |
Shinydan | Loshki: Yes it did. Thank you! | 02:27 |
ubottu | HaPK_PerCar: Antivirus is something you don't need on !Linux, except where files are then passed to windows computers (perhaps using samba), See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Antivirus | 02:27 |
sebsebseb | lickwid: well Plymouth isn't new, but it is for Ubuntu | 02:27 |
Loshki | Shinydan: excellent. Brewskis all round...! | 02:27 |
lickwid | sebsebseb: I've removed the proprietary drivers though, and i'm still having the same problem? | 02:27 |
Shinydan | 8) | 02:27 |
sebsebseb | lickwid: with a propritary driver installed for some of us, Plymouth will look really odd | 02:27 |
starnostar_ | would it be possible to use another router for lan traffic only, i have another one lying around somewhere, if i cant find it...is there a "cheaper than a router" piece of hardware that does lan only traffic? | 02:27 |
sebsebseb | lickwid: right well even with no propritary driver installed on the other computer, boot up wasn't working as good as it should, sometiems | 02:28 |
sebsebseb | lickwid: your issue is a bit differnet though | 02:28 |
Bravewolf | hi. how can I setup the default page format for print to pdf or ps included in every gnome application? | 02:28 |
sebsebseb | lickwid: so problems straight afater a clean install? | 02:28 |
jbwiv_ | guys, I have a dvd drive I recently installed. It shows up as /dev/sr0. I can mount it as my default user (i.e., not root), but for some reason it mounts it as user id 4294967295, and my user can't read it. Any idea how to fix this? | 02:28 |
lickwid | sebsebseb: indeed. | 02:28 |
Loshki | starnostar_: I can't believe there isn't a traffic monitor that won't segregate traffic by interface. Are you *sure* there isn't one? | 02:29 |
Bravewolf | I want to use A4, but currently the setup is US letter. | 02:29 |
sebsebseb | lickwid: Did you check your ISO? No I guess not, well if you still got it you can. Good idea to, so you know that your CD is fine, unless a bad burn. | 02:29 |
sebsebseb | lickwid: however thats not really to do with your issue as such I guess | 02:29 |
DarkStar1 | starnostar_: It would simplify your job massively | 02:29 |
jbwiv_ | oddly, it also shows up as /dev/scd0 | 02:29 |
kostkon | Niglop, you can use darkice (and it has a gui, darksnow) instead of ices2. just make sure that you change the device from "/dev/dsp" to "default" in its config file to make it work with pulseaudio. | 02:29 |
lickwid | sebsebseb: how would i go about checking it? | 02:30 |
arthurmaciel | see you, guys | 02:30 |
Niglop | sec kostkon let me etry | 02:30 |
sebsebseb | lickwid: however if your CD isn't burnt properly, and you install for it, you could get problems, but I don't think this is why you have a problem | 02:30 |
lickwid | can't hurt to check anyway | 02:30 |
sebsebseb | lickwid: indeed | 02:30 |
sebsebseb | !md5sum | lickwid | 02:30 |
ubottu | lickwid: To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows | 02:30 |
sebsebseb | !hashes | 02:30 |
ubottu | See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuHashes for the md5sums of Ubuntu discs. | 02:30 |
Niglop | kostkon> do i need to install darkice darksnow and pulseaudio seperate? | 02:31 |
jbwiv_ | file perms on /dev/sr0 look like brw-rw----+ 1 root cdrom 11, 0 2010-06-28 21:30 /dev/sr0 | 02:31 |
kostkon | Niglop, you only need to install darksnow and darkice. | 02:31 |
Niglop | kk sec | 02:31 |
sebsebseb | lickwid: and graphic cards will sometimes be odd with Ubuntu depending on which card it is, and ATI graphics cards don't tend to work that well with Ubuntu | 02:31 |
kostkon | Niglop, they are small sized packages, nothing special | 02:31 |
Niglop | kk ive installed them now what | 02:32 |

Agu10 | hey, I have a problem when suspending my laptop in ubuntu | 02:33 |
sebsebseb | lickwid: when you have the propritary Nivida driver installed what happens then? | 02:33 |
kostkon | Niglop, you need to modify the darkice config file | 02:33 |
Niglop | kk sec | 02:33 |
Loshki | jbwiv: 4294967295 is user 'nobody' I think. It usually happens when you mount a filesystem that doesn't have unix style permissions. Is it a FAT filesystem or some such? | 02:34 |
Niglop | cant find no /etc/darkice.cng kostkon | 02:34 |
Niglop | cfg* | 02:34 |
lickwid | sebsebseb: while booting? | 02:34 |
sebsebseb | lickwid: yes | 02:34 |
sebsebseb | lickwid: or shut down | 02:34 |
kostkon | Niglop, also, you need to install the pulseaudio volume control utility. it will allow you to send the audio coming out of your media app to darkice | 02:34 |
lickwid | the exact same thing - blinking cursor on boot. | 02:34 |
sebsebseb | lickwid: oh so the boot up animation doesn't even show | 02:35 |
sebsebseb | ? | 02:35 |
Niglop | kk i already got pulseaudio kostkon | 02:35 |
* DarkStar1 waves goodnight to everyone | 02:35 |
the123 | guys, I need to record the sound coming out of my computer...specifically this video ( http://www.argoatv.com/recreational/entry.aspx?x=wRmZMkYwJlo%3d# ) audiorecorder doesnt seem to be working..help me plz | 02:35 |
lickwid | quite literally immediately after choosing ubuntu from the GRUB OS list i'll get a black screen with a grey blinking cursor in the top left hand corner. | 02:35 |
kostkon | Niglop, just c/p and modify the example cfg file from here /usr/share/doc/darkice/examples/darkice.cfg | 02:35 |
the123 | I also can't download it..for some reason when I do..it gives me another video | 02:35 |
the123 | halp me plz | 02:35 |
Niglop | sec | 02:36 |
lickwid | i have to restart quite a few times to have a chance of booting properly. | 02:36 |
sebsebseb | lickwid: ok I think I have seen that on the other computer or something similar, anyway does it ever boot up, and show you the log in screen? | 02:36 |
kostkon | Niglop, then start darkice like this: darkice -c ~/mydarkice.cfg | 02:36 |
wildbat | compiling problem, "checking for X... no configure: error: X development files not found." which lib do i need to install ? | 02:36 |
sebsebseb | lickwid: Newer is not always better, so with Ubuntu it depends on the user and their hardware. As a result it could be a great idea for you to try 9.10 and maybe even 8.04. | 02:37 |
lickwid | sebsebseb: it does boot correctly occasionally. usually flashes up something about plymouth and a kill command, not entirely sure what it says though. | 02:37 |
sebsebseb | lickwid: you could also try to disable plymouth well kind of | 02:37 |
Random832 | wildbat: xlibs-dev or some such | 02:37 |
jbwiv_ | guys, I have a dvd drive I recently installed. It shows up as /dev/sr0. I can mount it as my default user (i.e., not root), but for some reason it mounts it as user id 4294967295, and my user can't read it. Any idea how to fix this? | 02:37 |
sebsebseb | lickwid: well its not working properly anyway | 02:37 |
Loshki | jbwiv: 4294967295 is user 'nobody' I think. It usually happens when you mount a filesystem that doesn't have unix style permissions. Is it a FAT filesystem or some such? | 02:37 |
Random832 | Loshki: uh, i thought nobody was 65534 | 02:37 |
the123 | ?? | 02:37 |
sebsebseb | lickwid: basically you get a text boot instead, and it will show black on the screen for a while, before the log in screen loads, well if it works for you | 02:38 |
Random832 | jbwiv_: is this on one specific disk or on everything? | 02:38 |
sebsebseb | lickwid: boot up is quite ugly for Ubuntu 10.04 though really, when Plymouth doesn't work, compared to previous versions | 02:38 |
Loshki | Random832: I did too, but on a 64 bit machine, I wonder if it isn't 4294967295 ? | 02:38 |
jbwiv_ | Random832, let me check | 02:38 |
lickwid | sebsebseb: it's worth a try, how do i go about that? | 02:38 |
jbwiv_ | Loshki, it's a DVD my brother created from old VCR tapes. Not sure what type of fs | 02:39 |
wildbat | Random832, no such package :< | 02:39 |
sebsebseb | lickwid: if you want a nicer boot up that will probably work no problem, and a version that isn't that old, and still supported untill the end of April next year. well Ubuntu 9.10 | 02:39 |
Random832 | Loshki: it has nothing to do with the number of bits available - uids have been 32 bits for like forever | 02:39 |
sebsebseb | lickwid: anyway right this Plymouth fix thing | 02:39 |
Random832 | type 'id nobody' to check | 02:39 |
sebsebseb | lickwid: logged into Ubuntu now yeah? | 02:39 |
lickwid | yeah | 02:40 |
Dr_Willis | To Whomever it was trying to doload that Amphibious 6 Wheel Vehicle Video - the 'DownloadHelper' Extension for firefox let me download it.. | 02:40 |
sebsebseb | lickwid: open the terminal and well your going to edit a config file and that | 02:40 |
jbwiv_ | Random832, looks like it's just this cd. Another cd I have works fine | 02:40 |
Royall | Is there an easy way to get a browser or computer to autocorrect things like website.prg (to .org) for convenience? | 02:40 |
Agu10 | hello | 02:40 |
Dr_Willis | http://www.argoatv.com/_uploads/entrypages/videos/266_ArgoinActionODGandCloserLRv1.flv and http://www.argoatv.com/_uploads/entrypages/videos/266_Ent-ArgoAdventureHRv1.flv | 02:40 |
Loshki | Random832: sorry, obviously I'm talking through my hat... | 02:40 |
Random832 | jbwiv_: probably that cd has somehow broken rockridge extensions | 02:40 |
lickwid | sebsebseb: okay | 02:41 |
jbwiv_ | Random832, even dd if=/dev/sr0 of=/tmp/my.iso and mounting via loop shows and empty file system | 02:41 |
jbwiv_ | Random832, but the darned thing works under windows | 02:41 |
imyousuf | hi | 02:41 |
Random832 | jbwiv_: try mounting with -o norock and see if the uid still happens | 02:41 |
Agu10 | I have a problem when suspending | 02:41 |
sebsebseb | lickwid: you know how to install and remove programs using terminal yeah? | 02:41 |
jbwiv_ | Random832, k, one sec | 02:41 |
lickwid | yeah i do | 02:41 |
Dr_Willis | !suspend | 02:41 |
sebsebseb | lickwid: I use purge instead of remove though when it comes to removing packages, since that will get rid of some config files as well | 02:42 |
imyousuf | How can I check the Ubuntu One log in Jaunty? I am pressing Connect but it is not connecting :(, so I want to check what is wrong | 02:42 |
bcurtiswx3 | hi all, so I have been building empathy from source, but now I want to go back to using the ubuntu packages. What do I need to do? | 02:42 |
Dr_Willis | Agu10: if no one in here can help. You may want to check the Ubuntu forums for your exact machine make/model and see if others have similer issues. | 02:42 |
sebsebseb | lickwid: and to edit a file I would use gksudo gedit | 02:42 |
lickwid | sebsebseb: that's what i tend to do :) | 02:42 |
sebsebseb | lickwid: you shoudn't use sudo on a graphical app. ok you know this stuff, just checking, since your new | 02:42 |
jbwiv_ | Random832, interesting. that seems to allow me to read it | 02:43 |
Agu10 | when I use the suspend function, it goes into suspended mode, but then when I press the power button, to restore, it reboots | 02:43 |
Agu10 | and I loose the data | 02:43 |
sebsebseb | lickwid: remove plymouth-label, plymouth-theme-ubuntu-{logo,text}, and plymouth-x11; then remove "splash" from /etc/default/grub and do sudo update-grub | 02:43 |
jbwiv_ | Random832, why would that be? when it initially mounts, is it trying to do something that's not supported? Interesting to note all file names are lowercase now | 02:44 |
Dr_Willis | sebsebseb: ive had that 'trick' work on one box for me.. on other box. it sort of works.. but i cant get to the consoles. :) but that may be more of a nvidia driver issue. | 02:44 |
Dr_Willis | sebsebseb: heres a pastebin of my notes, and script i used to sort of automate it. - < pastebinit remove-plymouth.sh | 02:45 |
Dr_Willis | http://pastebin.com/cWpQFiZE | 02:45 |
jbwiv_ | Random832, and if I do it this way, do I have the potential to lose any data? Is it safer to try to copy on Windows? | 02:45 |
Big_D_271 | can somebody help... i cannot get my screensaver to start, or have the monitor turn off after 60mins! | 02:45 |
lickwid | sebsebseb: okay, that's that sorted. | 02:45 |
sebsebseb | Dr_Willis: on our other computer well, uhmm boot up uhmm may show stuff or may just be black and log in screen, as for shut down uhmm. it shows a weird graphic or something | 02:45 |
sebsebseb | Dr_Willis: 10.04 would have been great after my customziing if it wasn't for their badly done Plymouth, and Grub 2 uh and GDM 2 uh. | 02:46 |
flan_suse | Anyone know how to restore and/or boot into Express Gate on ASUS laptops/netbooks after installing Ubuntu? The quick boot button no longer works, and there is no option to boot into Express Gate anymore, even though the 11 GB FAT partition still exists. | 02:46 |
Dr_Willis | sebsebseb: Heh. Yea. the Ghost of Plymouth is still haunting us. | 02:46 |
Dr_Willis | sebsebseb: i have really no issues with grub2. and gdm2 well - i dont worry about themes. | 02:46 |
sebsebseb | Dr_Willis: Plymouth is done awesomely in Mandriva :) nice grpahical boot, hit esc for text boot | 02:46 |
eroscher | hello, i've found that gnome DIsk Utility let's you make LUKS partitions | 02:47 |
eroscher | I want to find how to create lvms over this partition | 02:47 |
eroscher | i've installed lvm2 pkg | 02:47 |
Dr_Willis | sebsebseb: yes. it definatly needs work in ubuntu. Grub2 should also show menu on escape. or just al2ways show it. not hide it like it wants to defauilt to | 02:47 |
sebsebseb | Dr_Willis: I don't care that much about themes, but I don't like black and white much on the computer, black background white text or whatever | 02:47 |
sebsebseb | lickwid: now your meant to re boot, your computer, and try it, and then tell me how that went :D | 02:47 |
Dr_Willis | sebsebseb: im actually suprised theres not some fancy eyecandy grub wallpaper by default | 02:48 |
sebsebseb | Dr_Willis: yeah other distros do it | 02:48 |
lickwid | okay, brb. | 02:48 |
flan_suse | Dr_Willis, Mint 9's Grub2 has the Mint 9 colors and wallpaper by default on the Grub menu. | 02:48 |
sebsebseb | Dr_Willis: well theres blurg or whatever its called, in development at the moment, that will do proper themes, based on Grub 2 yeah | 02:48 |
nadan | can't get fglrx to work. sudo apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx then aticonfig --initial -f reboot safe graphics mode. | 02:48 |
eroscher | but i've been searching over google for a while and i didnt found how to create lvms | 02:49 |
Dr_Willis | flan_suse: ive set up similer things in ubuntu. its not too hard to do. but i guess its another layer of things to break in the end. :) | 02:49 |
nadan | segmentation fault on glxgears, since its not enabled. lucid up to date. | 02:49 |
eroscher | i'm trying to do it over the console | 02:49 |
sebsebseb | Dr_Willis: and then Nivida or ATI drivers can really mess up Plymouth as well uh. So I wonder what 10.10 will be like, when it comes to this stuff. | 02:49 |
flan_suse | sebsebseb, what makes me nervous is once GDM and Grub become easily themeable again, they might push out a newer version of both that goes back to square one. (Just like with the new GDM and Grub2 we are currently on...) | 02:49 |
eroscher | but i dont know what to issue there | 02:49 |
sebsebseb | flan_suse: yeah the new GDM 2 sucks, and most of us were rather fine with the old Grub | 02:50 |
flan_suse | sebsebseb, I'm with you there as well. | 02:50 |
Big_D_271 | anyone? ... I am getting frustrated that I cannot have the screen go off after 60 mintues! ... I have nvidia card, with twinview running ... Please Help Me :D | 02:50 |
Dr_Willis | Theres more to 'grub2' feature wise then what most people notice. It needed work done to set the foundation for its ussage for the next generation of pcs :) | 02:50 |
thune3_ | imyousuf: ~/.cache/ubuntuone/log/syncdaemon.log | 02:50 |
flan_suse | sebsebseb, GNOME-looks.org and Bisigi are moot when it comes to login themes. | 02:50 |
sebsebseb | flan_suse: one reason I use Mandriva on here :D altough its old KDM or whatever instead of GDM since the way they did it was a bit uhmm. and yeah it came with old Grub so :D and I am waiting for a delayed next version still | 02:51 |
imyousuf | thanks thune3_ | 02:51 |
sebsebseb | flan_suse: yep the old GDM themes won't work with GDM 2 | 02:51 |
Dr_Willis | Big_D_271: all i can say is that it seems to work here for me on my 8800gtsxxx | 02:51 |
b2bwild | does Pen Tablets work on Ubuntu Linux? | 02:51 |
nadan | i have a touch screen tx2z it works. | 02:51 |
Big_D_271 | Dr_Willis are you using stock Gnome-screensaver? | 02:51 |
Dr_Willis | Big_D_271: pretty much. I tend to just use the 'blank screen' one. i come back after a while and my screen is powerd down. | 02:52 |
Random832 | jbwiv_: "norock" turns off unix extensions - and the unix extensions apparently included a strange uid ownership of files | 02:52 |
Random832 | you probably won't lose any data, but if you're worried just mount it normally and copy as root | 02:52 |
eroscher | anyone knows how to create lvm volumes from the console? | 02:52 |
Dr_Willis | Big_D_271: some video players and other apps can disable it if they are running. | 02:52 |
eroscher | or maybe a lvm tool | 02:52 |
eroscher | ??? | 02:52 |
Dr_Willis | !lvm | 02:52 |

jbwiv_ | Random832, gotcha. Thanks! | 02:52 |
Big_D_271 | Dr_Willis .. mine used to do that.. but not any more... I can reboot, and not start anything and the screen will stay on all day! | 02:53 |
Big_D_271 | anyone else have ideas? | 02:53 |
Big_D_271 | I cannot find any solutions in the forumns | 02:53 |
lickwid | sebsebseb: nothing :( | 02:53 |
sebsebseb | flan_suse: I kind of regret not putting 9.04 back on the other computer in Januarey (since the hard disk got re done, since someone got a virus in XP or whatever) however I don't use that computer that much anyway, and my brothers don't seem to care much about how Ubuntu looks. | 02:53 |
Dr_Willis | Other then double checking the powersaver/screensaver settings.. not really Big_D_271 . | 02:53 |
sebsebseb | lickwid: no luck? | 02:53 |
lickwid | unfortunately not | 02:53 |
sebsebseb | lickwid: ok | 02:54 |
Random832 | with extensions turned off you'll also get only 8.3 character filenames | 02:54 |
sebsebseb | lickwid: well Dr_Willis flan_suse and me, were just talking about it, how there are some issues with 10.04 | 02:54 |
eroscher | Dr_Willis, why !lvm??? i need it to put even the swap on a luks partition | 02:54 |
Big_D_271 | Dr_Willis I have checked and tripple checked... they all are on, I even installed "brightside" which allows me to activate the screensaver, or screen off, but the screen doesn't stay sleepling. | 02:54 |
eroscher | :S | 02:54 |
Random832 | though you'll see a trans.tbl file giving the full ones somewhere | 02:54 |
Dr_Willis | eroscher: that bot factoid is the whole extent of my LVM/raid knowledge.. | 02:54 |
flan_suse | sebsebseb, GDM and Grub2 are upstream decisions though. | 02:54 |
civpro | im wanting to do a server cluster starting with 120 servers all from the same datacenter, any recommendation to what software to use for this | 02:54 |
sebsebseb | flan_suse: indeed | 02:54 |
Dr_Willis | eroscher: you did read the bots factoid/urls ? | 02:55 |
=== thune3_ is now known as thune3 |
eroscher | err i nope | 02:55 |
civpro | they are all gigabit lines also | 02:55 |
sebsebseb | flan_suse: however Ubuntu didn't have to use them, and its not like they care that much about upstream Gnome anyway for example, I mean all this Gnome changing they have been doing since 9.04 | 02:55 |
Dr_Willis | sebsebseb: you can install the old GDM if you want to. At least you used to bne able to. | 02:56 |
flan_suse | sebsebseb, true. And also the icons/buttons issue with GNOME 2.28 and then 2.30... | 02:56 |
sebsebseb | Dr_Willis: some how yeah, not as simple as just install and use though | 02:56 |
bastid_raZor | civpro: possibly ask in #ubuntu-server | 02:56 |
civpro | thanks | 02:56 |
sebsebseb | Dr_Willis: I use KDM instead :) for Ubuntu. looks nice by default with 10.04 | 02:56 |
sebsebseb | Dr_Willis: and looked ok in 9.10 | 02:56 |
TraumaPony | Anyone know if it's possible to run a wubi install in a VM? I don't feel like rebooting all the time. | 02:56 |
jbwiv_ | guys, one other question. In both totem, xine, and vlc on my desktop, videos play in sort of negative colors. Blues appear orange and so on. On videos do this. Any idea how to fix this? | 02:57 |
sebsebseb | flan_suse: no icons in system menu yeah, that was upstream Gnome, easy to sort that out though :) | 02:57 |
Dr_Willis | sebsebseb: i seem to recall it not being very hard. I never tried.. because i dont worry about a screen i see for 10 sec once a weekoor less due to my Huge massive Uptimes. :) | 02:57 |
Dr_Willis | TraumaPony: clarify what you are trying to do. | 02:57 |
JCakeC | bye people... thanks for the help... see you around! | 02:58 |
Dr_Willis | I recall a gnome setting years ago to disable ALL icons in all the gnome menus.. wonder if thats been removed? | 02:58 |
flan_suse | sebsebseb, not quite. They removed the option in 2.30, so now you have to use gconf to revert it back. Because it's a "tweak". Like someone said, soon enough with GNOME, you'll need to use gconf-editor to change your wallpaper because that's a "tweak". | 02:58 |
TraumaPony | I have a windows install, and a wubi install, and I want to run the wubi install in a vm | 02:58 |
sebsebseb | lickwid: Ubuntu is a good first distro, but how good, depends really on the user, their hardware, and the version | 02:58 |
Dr_Willis | TraumaPony: i dont think thats doable. there are ways to convert a wubi install to a 'normal' install ive heard. or perhaps a VM session install. | 02:58 |
sebsebseb | lickwid: out of the versions that are still supported, I find 8.04 and 9.04 the best | 02:59 |
LJRuff | sebsebseb, 8.04 was my first Linux ever - I might be a little biased, but I think that was a *damn* good release... | 02:59 |
eroscher | hello | 02:59 |

eroscher | sorry, i'm swapping from gtalk on one computer | 03:01 |
eroscher | and xchat on this one | 03:01 |
sebsebseb | lickwid: Plymouth itself you can't remove | 03:02 |
eroscher | :P | 03:02 |
Loshki | eroscher: you start with the urls Dr_Willis gave you 15 minutes ago... | 03:02 |
sebsebseb | lickwid: well not without taking a load of the system with it anyway | 03:02 |
eroscher | oops i did it again | 03:02 |
un214 | working on it | 03:02 |
sebsebseb | lickwid: and packages that should be installed | 03:02 |
imyousuf | I am using Ubuntu One on Jaunty and Lucid (3 separate machines - 2 Jaunty, 1 Lucid). I had to remove my machine permission for my office laptop and mistakenly I revoked permission for one of my home laptops (its a jaunty). After that when I try to connect I get the following log - http://pastebin.ca/1891511 | 03:02 |
imyousuf | Any idea how I can get my Jaunty machine reconnect again? | 03:02 |
sebsebseb | lickwid: the best you can do is sort of disable it, which is what I told you how to do | 03:02 |
eroscher | !lvm | 03:02 |

un214 | heck I may have a way to remove plymouth soon | 03:03 |
BeeBuu | anyone know any USB sniffer in ubuntu? | 03:03 |
sebsebseb | un214: oh? | 03:03 |
un214 | yeah | 03:03 |

sebsebseb | LJRuff: you were removing the two default themes for it | 03:03 |
un214 | need to make source changes to mountall first | 03:03 |
sebsebseb | lickwid: you were removing the two default themes for it | 03:03 |
BeeBuu | LJRuff:i mean sniffer | 03:03 |
sebsebseb | lickwid: and that kind of thing | 03:03 |
lickwid | sebsebseb: could you give me their names again? | 03:03 |
LJRuff | BeeBuu, I am too newbie to know anything about that. =) | 03:03 |
un214 | if your system is traditional hd you don't need plymouth period | 03:04 |
sebsebseb | lickwid: rww actsually gave me that line originally, the one I gave you | 03:04 |
BeeBuu | LJRuff: thanks for you reply | 03:04 |
Loshki | BeeBuu: I found this on google: http://hackaday.com/2009/03/19/usb-sniffing-in-linux/ | 03:04 |
sebsebseb | un214: well if you find out how to remove Plymouth without loads of the system with it, or how to get xsplash working in 10.04, be sure to tell me :) | 03:04 |
BeeBuu | Loshki: i had google, but..... let me try your show | 03:05 |
sebsebseb | lickwid: remove plymouth-label, plymouth-theme-ubuntu-{logo,text}, and plymouth-x11; then remove "splash" from /etc/default/grub and do sudo update-grub | 03:05 |
BeeBuu | Loshki: it seem good~~~ | 03:05 |
Loshki | BeeBuu: I've never tried it myself. Best of luck... | 03:05 |
BeeBuu | Loshki: :) | 03:06 |
lickwid | sebsebseb: okay, cheers...just thought i'd check to see if i'd properly removed them, and i have. | 03:06 |
thune3 | imyousuf: i think you sign in to web interface and add your machine: https://one.ubuntu.com/support/installation/ instructions 7-8 sign in:https://one.ubuntu.com | 03:07 |
lickwid | sebsebseb: bit frustrating, this. i guess i'll have to try an earlier release of ubuntu | 03:07 |
sebsebseb | lickwid: yes could be a good idea, and I am thinking 8.04 at the moment | 03:08 |
sebsebseb | lickwid: well 9.04 :) ,but thats on the verge of running out of support, so a bit silly to put that on now | 03:08 |
sebsebseb | lickwid: and 9.10 is ok, but 8.04 :) | 03:09 |
imyousuf | thune3: trying it out | 03:09 |
sebsebseb | lickwid: you could uhmm | 03:09 |

Methose | sebsebseb: that's what it seems, though I see it as a 10.2 GB drive Media in Places | 03:53 |
perlsyntax | comsa it did pick up my modem. | 03:53 |
sebsebseb | Methose: ok could be a permissions issue or it just being stupid since you didn't shut it down properly last time | 03:53 |
Methose | ok, so reboot her? | 03:54 |
sebsebseb | Methose: that won't fix this, but might. I have another idea, but you would need to be a bit careful with it | 03:54 |
digimer | Anyone here have experience getting 10.04 to boot over PXE? | 03:54 |
Methose | can't mess it up too much more, she wont boot ;) | 03:55 |
perlsyntax | ? | 03:55 |
sebsebseb | Methose: open the terminal | 03:55 |
Methose | done | 03:55 |
comsa | perlsyntax try pppconfig in terminal | 03:56 |
sebsebseb | Methose: now if you run gksudo nautilus you become sudo/root for everything in there, so be a bit careful not to delete a system file or something by mistake | 03:56 |
sebsebseb | Methose: and then try to access the partition like that | 03:56 |
perlsyntax | i told you i waqnt gnome-pp to work and i got it to work before. | 03:56 |
coz_ | mm when someone types !ops is that across freenode or just this channel? I keep seeing my nick | 03:56 |
sebsebseb | coz_: only channel | 03:57 |
Cpudan80 | it is per channel - many channels use that trigger though | 03:57 |
coz_ | sebsebseb, ok thanks | 03:57 |
perlsyntax | kii don't know the dns numbers for pppconfig. | 03:57 |
Cpudan80 | coz_: lately #ubuntu has had spammers which do that trigger while listing -every- person in the channel | 03:57 |
coz_ | Cpudan80, ah mm ok thanks | 03:58 |
sebsebseb | Methose: can you access the partition like that? | 03:58 |
coz_ | i dont belive I have ops in this channel that's why I asked | 03:58 |
Methose | sebsebseb: got nautilus running, there was an error in the terminal when launching it. | 03:58 |
perlsyntax | anyone will to help me. | 03:59 |
Methose | the drive no longer shows in Places | 03:59 |
Methose | er | 03:59 |
sebsebseb | Methose: maybe its not mounted now | 03:59 |
Methose | mistake, I mean in the browser, it does not show in the folder menu on the left | 03:59 |
perlsyntax | ? | 04:00 |
sebsebseb | Methose: ok, but on the first screen it should say stuff like filesystem and what not. filesystem would be the Live CD | 04:00 |
digimer | No PXE love, eh? | 04:00 |
sebsebseb | Methose: your partition should also show there | 04:00 |
sebsebseb | Methose: or maybe not, but should be able to get into it from filesystem /media or /mnt | 04:00 |
perlsyntax | this room a joke | 04:00 |
coz_ | mmm | 04:01 |
Methose | /media and /mnt are empty | 04:01 |
sebsebseb | Methose: ok close nautilsu | 04:01 |
sebsebseb | Methose: what was the error in the terminal? patebin | 04:02 |
sebsebseb | !mount | 04:02 |
ubottu | mount is used to attach devices to directories. See also https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mount | 04:02 |
sebsebseb | !unmount | 04:03 |
Methose | http://imgbin.org/index.php?page=image&id=1948 | 04:03 |
sebsebseb | Methose: I think your partition might be a bit currupted or something, hence why you can't just access it from the Live CD, and why Grub had an issue with it | 04:03 |
Methose | sebsebseb: was the !mount for me? | 04:05 |
sebsebseb | Methose: odd error | 04:05 |
sebsebseb | Methose: does it show the partition on the desktop of the Live CD? | 04:05 |
Methose | it does not, thought it shows in Places | 04:06 |
chewbranca | what's the best way to get spidermonkey installed on Lucid? I can't find anything about it, and it looks like libmozjs-dev was removed in Lucid: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=libmozjs-dev | 04:06 |
sam555 | hello all | 04:06 |
sam555 | how does one change make the ip address static? | 04:06 |
sebsebseb | Methose: does it show in places now? | 04:06 |
Methose | it does, as a 10.2 Media | 04:07 |
chewbranca | sam555, http://www.iceteks.com/forums/archive/t/3298/ | 04:07 |
comsa | perlsyntax>i 'd use pppconfig but use dynamic DNS. | 04:07 |
sebsebseb | Methose: ok good :) | 04:07 |
sebsebseb | Methose: anyway your error message that you showed me, mentions samba, which is odd | 04:07 |
Agu10 | hey | 04:08 |
Agu10 | can you help me with wifi? | 04:08 |
sebsebseb | !wireless | Agu10 | 04:08 |
ubottu | Agu10: Wireless documentation, including how-to guides and troubleshooting information, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 04:08 |
Methose | that is odd, it's only real purpose was ntop and nagios | 04:09 |
sebsebseb | Methose: whats that the second bit? | 04:09 |
Methose | second bit? | 04:09 |
sebsebseb | Methose: ntop and nagios | 04:10 |
sebsebseb | ? | 04:10 |
Methose | I was agrteing that it was odd about samba, because it's only purpose was to run ntop and nagios, neither requires samba (to my knowledge) | 04:10 |
sebsebseb | Methose: there is data on the partition that you want I guess? | 04:11 |
crdlb | chewbranca: what do you need it for? | 04:11 |
sebsebseb | Methose: Is it only Ubuntu on the computer? | 04:12 |
sam555 | besides vi, what command line editor can I use? | 04:12 |
YzNN | hey | 04:13 |
Methose | it is only ubuntu on the machine, but yes the config files for tha Nagios install would be useful if not extremely time saving | 04:13 |
YzNN | how do u use the away command on irssi? | 04:13 |
YzNN | AWAY %|[-one | -all] [<reason>] | 04:13 |
sebsebseb | Methose: What is Nagios ? | 04:13 |
Methose | I'm already rebuilding a new box with server 10.04 | 04:14 |
Methose | http://www.nagios.org/ | 04:14 |
YzNN | nvm | 04:14 |
sebsebseb | Methose: oh | 04:14 |
Methose | network monitoring for IT infrastructure | 04:14 |
Methose | life saver :D | 04:14 |
sebsebseb | Methose: well there are other ways to get that file from the partition probably, uhmm I think theres a command or something to like force unmount the partition properly, and then you mount it agan and should work. and chmod or whatever it was to get into files from the Live CD on a partition | 04:15 |
sebsebseb | Methose: and Grub is no longer supported upstream, since Grub 2, and 9.04 will run out of support at the end of October, so a good time really for you to clean install on that computer with 10.04 really | 04:15 |
Methose | yup, just dead in the water, i'd like to have the old up and running and rebuildthe new in a less critical timeframe | 04:16 |
Methose | think I could over install Grub2 and rebuild the mbr? | 04:17 |
Methose | or am i way off base | 04:17 |
sebsebseb | Methose: yes you can install Grub 2 into 9.04, but that may not help | 04:17 |
sebsebseb | Methose: you could also re install the old Grub | 04:17 |
sebsebseb | !grub | Methose | 04:17 |
ubottu | Methose: grub is the default boot manager for Ubuntu releases before Karmic (9.10). Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto - See !grub2 for Karmic onwards. | 04:17 |
edbian | I am just learning emacs. I like to have a shell open in one window but I noticed the emacs shell isn't quite the same as my gnome-terminal shell. Is there any way I can give it a more native feel? What do you do? | 04:17 |
Methose | i'm down to try that | 04:17 |
sebsebseb | Methose: so the first link in the factoid, even though Windows didn't do it | 04:18 |
sebsebseb | Methose: I mean mess up Grub | 04:18 |
sebsebseb | edbian: #emacs | 04:18 |
edbian | sebsebseb, thanks bud | 04:18 |
sebsebseb | edbian: np | 04:19 |
* YzNN YzNN yawns | 04:19 |
Methose | sebsebseb: I'm nto sure if i'm following that one correctly, sorry | 04:19 |
* YzNN yawns | 04:19 |
YzNN | sorru | 04:19 |
sebsebseb | Methose: when people put Windows on after a Linux distro | 04:19 |
YzNN | sorry | 04:19 |
sebsebseb | Methose: it goes over the MBR (Master Boot Record) so only Windows will boot | 04:19 |
sebsebseb | Methose: so well the rest of Grub in /boot is still there, but not what was on the MBR | 04:20 |
sebsebseb | Methose: in your case Windows hasn't done that, but your Grub is messed up, so if you follow the instructions for re installing Grub, the same one people who had Windows going over the MBR would use, then hopefuly things will wrok again | 04:20 |
suicidepills | when i go to administration > shared folders and create a new share, "samba" doesn't appear as an option in the "share through" drop-down. Does anyone know why that might be? | 04:21 |
sebsebseb | Methose: also if you Google the error Grub is giving you, then you can probably find out what is wrong. I think its an actsaul partition issue | 04:21 |
sebsebseb | Methose: that it hasn't been unmounted/shutdown properly | 04:21 |

Cuervo | Is there any way to make files on a read only filesystem executable? | 04:23 |
Methose | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DualBoot/Grub#Ubuntu%209.10%20&%20earlier | 04:23 |
Cuervo | I have files on a dvd that I want to execute, but it says it can't because the dvd is read only. | 04:23 |
sebsebseb | !permissions | Cuervo | 04:23 |
ubottu | Cuervo: An explanation of what file permissions are and how they can be manipulated can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions | 04:23 |
Methose | that one didn't work because of the find couldn't load the device | 04:23 |
sebsebseb | Methose: also maybe not really the best solution to get the file you want, but this could work. Deleting the partition and then using Testdisk to recover data from it. It seems Testdisk only works with partitions that have actsualley been deleted. | 04:24 |
Jordan_U | Methose: Run "sudo fsck -y /dev/sda1" from a LiveCD. | 04:25 |
Cuervo | sebsebseb: I know what file permissions are, and and I know how to use chmod, but the point is the filesystem is read only. chmod does not work. | 04:25 |
sebsebseb | Methose: ok here we go :) Jordan_U knows his stuff | 04:25 |
joshmuffin | can anyone help me, im using ubuntu 10.04 and I compiled gnome-shell from source, when i gnome-shell --replace it flickers and is unusable for about 30secs before it crashes, terminal output: http://paste.ubuntu.com/456343/ | 04:25 |
Methose | ah | 04:25 |
Methose | superblock has an invalid journal | 04:26 |
Cuervo | sorry if I didn't explain myself well. | 04:26 |
Methose | and now a bunch of scrolly shit that goes on and one.. lol shoulda piped the out to file :) | 04:26 |
Methose | ty Jordan_U | 04:27 |
Methose | i has fingers crossed | 04:27 |
sebsebseb | Jordan_U: anyway I am basically done with this for now :) so hopefuly you can help Methose properly, two issues. 1. his Grub won't boot up Ubuntu thats the old Grub and Ubuntu 9.04 2. he can't access the 9.04 partition from the Live CD | 04:27 |
Methose | ty very kindly sebsebseb for all your help and patience | 04:28 |
sebsebseb | Methose: Ok well good luck :) | 04:28 |
h00k | Methose: please watch the language and keep it family friendly | 04:28 |
Cuervo | Never mind. Figured out that I could just use wine directly. | 04:29 |
Methose | so sorry h00k, certainly will do | 04:29 |
GrazzMan | I'm about to go back to windows.... | 04:29 |
sebsebseb | GrazzMan: Why? | 04:29 |
GrazzMan | still cant partition without getting a misaligned error | 04:29 |
Jordan_U | GrazzMan: What is the exact error and when do you see it? | 04:30 |
GrazzMan | in Disk Utility: The partition is misaligned by 512 byted. This may result in very poor performance. Repatitioning is suggested. | 04:31 |
foobarbecue | Hi, I have several computers on a network. When updating ubuntu packages, is there a way I can avoid repeating the same downloads for each computer? | 04:31 |

Alan502 | an http tunnel i could with ubuntu and windows? | 04:32 |
YzNN | qestion about compiz fusion | 04:32 |
sebsebseb | Methose: oh | 04:32 |
Alan502 | !httptunnel | 04:32 |
Jordan_U | GrazzMan: Partition with Disk Utility then, since it's the utility complaining about misalignment it should allign things properly when creating partitions itself. | 04:32 |
sebsebseb | Methose: well then why not do 10.04 on there soon, and copy the original to that install? | 04:32 |
YzNN | anyone can help? | 04:32 |
codebrainz | foobarbecue, http://keystoneit.wordpress.com/2006/08/25/local-network-ubuntu-repository/ is one way | 04:32 |
sebsebseb | !ask | YzNN | 04:32 |
ubottu | YzNN: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 04:32 |
joshmuffin | !factoids > Alan502 | 04:32 |
ubottu | Alan502, please see my private message | 04:32 |
Alan502 | thanks | 04:33 |
YzNN | i cant get my screen to rotate into a cube | 04:33 |
Methose | well this is a VM running on ESX, the host died, we rebuilt and restored the vm from a backup copy | 04:33 |
YzNN | i have compiz fusion however | 04:33 |
GrazzMan | Jordan_U: So it is partition, and formatted to Ext4. So, just ignor it and go on with life? | 04:33 |
joshmuffin | !details | YzNN | 04:33 |
ubottu | YzNN: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." | 04:33 |
foobarbecue | codebrainz: thanks | 04:33 |
sebsebseb | YzNN: ok | 04:33 |
sebsebseb | YzNN: you see on the bottom panel | 04:33 |
sebsebseb | YzNN: you need four workspaces instead of two | 04:33 |
Jordan_U | GrazzMan: If you're not noticing performance issues then don | 04:33 |
GrazzMan | KK... Will do | 04:34 |
Jordan_U | GrazzMan: ...then don't worry about it. | 04:34 |
YzNN | yeah, i have four, its automatically there in the latest version | 04:34 |
thune3 | foobarbecue: there are other options, apt-cacher and apt-cacher-ng are options | 04:34 |
joshmuffin | !enter |m YzNN | 04:34 |
ubottu | m YzNN: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 04:34 |
Methose | sebsebseb: so I was trying to get the vm up and running, so I can build the server 10.04 up proper | 04:34 |
sebsebseb | Methose: vm? | 04:34 |
sebsebseb | Methose: what vm? | 04:34 |
foobarbecue | thune3: aha, good because I really don't need to mirror the whole repo | 04:34 |
Methose | virtual machine | 04:34 |
sebsebseb | Methose: yeah where are you doing vm? | 04:34 |
YzNN | sebsebseb: ctrl - alt just left just switches between desktops... | 04:35 |
sebsebseb | Methose: 10.04 server vm? or 9.04 is a vm? | 04:35 |
sebsebseb | Methose: anyway by the way with server edition you can get support in #ubuntu-server | 04:35 |
YzNN | sebsebseb: what do u think? | 04:35 |
Methose | well both. we're running ESX on the physical server, it has a gues vm running 9.04 | 04:36 |
sebsebseb | YzNN: system > preferences > appearance | 04:36 |
sebsebseb | YzNN: desktop effects | 04:36 |
sebsebseb | YzNN: put it on extra or whatever it is. I am not even using Ubuntu right now :D | 04:36 |
Methose | I'm rebuilding a 10.04 server edit on the same phsical ESX host, but would like to restore the 9.04 to have running until the new one can be properly built out nad tested | 04:36 |
sebsebseb | YzNN: anyway I don't tend to use Compiz so I won't be of much help, and I am on the verge of finnishing in here for now | 04:36 |
juken | What can I do when my machine won't startup and says "BUG: soft luckup - CPU#3 stuck for 61s! [modprobe:747]" | 04:37 |
sebsebseb | Methose: oh right ok | 04:37 |
intmed | tools for checking the errors in dvd. that should show the file that cannot be copied | 04:38 |
sebsebseb | !compiz | YzNN | 04:38 |
ubottu | YzNN: Compiz (compositing window manager), for a howto see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager and more help #compiz | 04:38 |
YzNN | haha sebseb: thanx man, much appreciated | 04:38 |
Methose | sebsebseb: :) | 04:38 |
codebrainz | juken, i've heard of that bug before, it's fairly common i think | 04:39 |
NinoScript | having my cellphone connected through usb, just to charge it, if I open and close it (it's the slide kind), it suspends my notebook! haha! it's the weirdest thing I've ever seen | 04:39 |
juken | codebrainz: I've been Googling around and it looks like VirtualBox is the cause some of the times, but I don't have VirtualBox installed. | 04:39 |
Methose | Jordan_U: I'm sure there are many variables but roughly how long would fsck take? | 04:40 |
codebrainz | juken, one thing to try would be to disable some USB controllers or anything like that in BIOS to see if it helps | 04:40 |
Jordan_U | Methose: How large is the partition? | 04:41 |
Methose | 10.4 GB | 04:41 |
Methose | running on 2 x 1 GB procs and 2 GB RAM | 04:42 |
wmcinnis | hello | 04:42 |
codebrainz | Methose, 3.12 minutes | 04:42 |
Methose | codebrainz: hahaha ;) | 04:43 |
Jordan_U | Methose: I'd expect it to be less than 30 minutes, but I wouldn't be worried if it's more. | 04:43 |
codebrainz | Methose, hehe, i don't think very long though | 04:43 |
wmcinnis | question when i installed compiz and turned on the cube i get bad video taring i tried the vsync to 60hz but its still having a problem i have a good video card and i do have the catalyst drivers installed | 04:44 |
Jordan_U | Methose: It takes longer when there's actually problems to fix, which in your case there are. | 04:44 |
Methose | yup, I was trying to gauge how bad off I am | 04:44 |
wmcinnis | anyone? | 04:45 |
codebrainz | wmcinnis, I'm not familiar with the word taring | 04:46 |
wmcinnis | umm its not smooth | 04:46 |

joshmuffin | can anyone help me, im using ubuntu 10.04 and I compiled gnome-shell from source, when i gnome-shell --replace it flickers and is unusable for about 30secs before it crashes, terminal output: http://paste.ubuntu.com/456343/ | 04:50 |
shishire | codebrainz, just checked, I'm using gnome-screensaver not xscreensaver, and I don't have xscreensaver installed. man gnome-screensaver and man gnome-screensaver-preferences give no helpful information. | 04:51 |
codebrainz | shishire, there's an /apps/gnome-screensaver in gconf-editor where you can change this | 04:52 |
Jordan_U | shishire: http://live.gnome.org/GnomeScreensaver/FrequentlyAskedQuestions#I.27m_developing_an_application_that_has_a_fullscreen_mode.__Is_there_a_way_that_I_can_disable_the_screensaver.3F | 04:52 |
codebrainz | shishire, what language you using? | 04:52 |
shishire | codebrainz, bash scripting. Jordan_U, I don't want to disable it, just lengthen the time before it starts. | 04:53 |
codebrainz | shishire, ok, so you can use like this gconftool-2 --set '/apps/gnome-screensaver/idle_delay' --type int 5 or similar | 04:54 |
shishire | codebrainz, cool thanks | 04:54 |
codebrainz | shishire, man gconftool-2 for proper syntax of course :) | 04:54 |
shishire | setting it so that when I'm connected to my home network the screensaver takes longer to activate. But I want it to be fast when I'm somewhere else :D | 04:54 |
bsmith093 | im trying to connect to a windows network and samba ( or whatever i use when i open the network folder) says cannot get share list from server | 04:58 |
codebrainz | bsmith093, did you try the Connect to Server... option? that's what I usually use for gui samba | 04:59 |
bsmith093 | well i dont know the ip of the comp im connecting to | 04:59 |
bsmith093 | i just want to see if my share is on the network | 04:59 |
codebrainz | it should work with the hostname i think | 04:59 |
bsmith093 | nope | 05:00 |
bsmith093 | just checked | 05:00 |
codebrainz | bsmith093, i can't help much, I never had much luck with any samba/cifs GUI programs I just end up putting the mounts in /etc/fstab so it 'just works' and then I forget all about it :) | 05:02 |
bsmith093 | well the ip arent static | 05:02 |
codebrainz | bsmith093, it's *supposed* to work with hostnames I believe | 05:03 |
bsmith093 | whats the syntax | 05:03 |
joshmuffin | can anyone help me, im using ubuntu 10.04 and I compiled gnome-shell from source, when i gnome-shell --replace it flickers and is unusable for about 30secs before it crashes, terminal output: http://paste.ubuntu.com/456343/ | 05:03 |
edbian | joshmuffin, The gnome-shell in the repos is more stable. Try that :) Little tip, turn off compiz first as well. | 05:05 |
joshmuffin | I don't have compiz installed :) | 05:06 |
joshmuffin | and isnt the one in the repos outdated? | 05:06 |
edbian | joshmuffin, define "outdated" Development has been done on gnome-shell (as probably every other piece of software in the repos). But the one in the repos is stable | 05:07 |
joshmuffin | edbian, last time i tried the repo version i got the same issue. im pretty sure the issue is with the ati drivers | 05:07 |
edbian | joshmuffin, It's complaining about ubuntu new notifications | 05:09 |
kickingintender | kubuntu is not installing inside windows.....any help | 05:10 |

kickingintender | codebrainz what about other vm's | 05:17 |
codebrainz | heh, kde won't even run on my computer, even if i do a full blown kubuntu-desktop install | 05:17 |
codebrainz | kickingintender, i love qemu, but it's slow and acceleration doesn't work on my computer I don't think | 05:17 |
codebrainz | kickingintender, vmware player and server have lousy interfaces and I've never used the $ version | 05:18 |
kickingintender | yeah ubuntu with compiz and so bling wud be better than kde4 | 05:18 |
un214 | that does it | 05:18 |
un214 | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mountall/+bug/599624 | 05:19 |
un214 | I can't see one good reason why I should even keep upstart or mountall anymore | 05:19 |
Gumby | hi all, running 10.04 LTS on a new laptop and the nVidia drivers do not seem to be recognizing my geforce 310M GPU. Anyone familiar with getting this chip working? It works ok with the default driver | 05:19 |
kickingintender | i have a question about upgrading dudes ....which is better choice a new ram or new graphics card? | 05:19 |
un214 | it now yields to me zero benefit over sysvinit | 05:19 |
abhi_nav | both | 05:20 |
IdleOne | ##hardware would be a good place to ask that | 05:20 |
kickingintender | gumby u installed kubuntu isnt it? | 05:20 |
Gumby | kickingintender: yeah I did | 05:21 |
th2 | hi all. im using newest ubuntu+compiz. i have this strnge problem with youtube: when i go fullscreen it just "moves" player to a black background(i have 2 displays) and it stays small | 05:21 |
Gumby | kickingintender: Im no sure thats even relevant though as I believe they'd use the same nVidia driver and the same xorg | 05:22 |
codebrainz | th2, i get video in fullscreen, but it's unwatchable | 05:22 |
kickingintender | gumby truth is kde4 isnt all that good install ubuntu | 05:23 |
th2 | codebrainz, how come? | 05:23 |
joshmuffin | kde4 is great | 05:23 |
joshmuffin | what are you on about | 05:23 |
codebrainz | th2, flash sux | 05:23 |
Gumby | kickingintender: thats a matter of opinion really | 05:23 |
Gumby | kickingintender: and somewhat irrelevant to my question | 05:24 |
joshmuffin | Gumby, install what you want | 05:24 |
thune3 | un214: it sounds like a bug, i'm just wondering how you came to notice it since full filesystem checks are infrequent, and the chances of this causing a noticable slowdown seem infrequent. | 05:24 |
codebrainz | th2, i have excellent graphics performance and everything else runs absolutely perfect, except flash | 05:24 |

un214 | touch /forcefsck | 05:24 |
th2 | codebrainz, me too. I have almost brand new ati and everything else works fine! | 05:24 |
joshmuffin | !opinion | kickingintender | 05:24 |
ubottu | kickingintender: 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. | 05:24 |
th2 | codebrainz, but how is your youtube unwatchable? I mean does it blur or something? | 05:25 |
Gumby | joshmuffin: I plan on it. I have to figure out why the nVidia drivers do not work with this card though :) | 05:25 |
kickingintender | well iam not here for discussion on kubuntu vs ubuntu | 05:25 |
kickingintender | i want 2 know some issues can be resolved | 05:26 |
codebrainz | th2, it's fine in regular size, but in fullscreen it stutters to much, it's like less than a frame a second | 05:26 |
un214 | what would it take to bring back sysvinit | 05:26 |
codebrainz | th2, two boxes, one ati, one nv, both decent, same prob on each | 05:26 |
Flomaster | I am getting an error that I can't seem to understand | 05:26 |
kickingintender | i want my pc to run smoothly on net.....system testing says it doesnt find working internet connection | 05:26 |
Methose | yay, it's done | 05:26 |
Flomaster | ?? pastebin | 05:27 |
kickingintender | also what package is neccessary 2 boost internet performance | 05:27 |
Methose | Jordan_U: anything else I should do or just reboot her? | 05:27 |
th2 | codebrainz, those are bad news. so its possible that theres no workaround? | 05:27 |
joshmuffin | !details | Flomaster | 05:27 |
ubottu | Flomaster: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." | 05:27 |
codebrainz | th2, you should be able to at least get some sort of picture | 05:28 |
kickingintender | iam finding problems with totem as it doesnt work in normal mode shows blank screen....i have quick time movies to watch....nothing much | 05:28 |
thune3 | un214: /forcefsck is not an everyday occurance. For normal filesystems with staggered check intervals, no one would notice. (that said, it is still a bug) | 05:28 |
codebrainz | th2, have you tried downloading the plugin straight from adobe? | 05:28 |
un214 | until your uptime exceeds the check intervals | 05:28 |
adante | hi, how do i logoff from a gnome session without a mouse? | 05:28 |
Flomaster | joshmuffin: I forget the pastebin link and don't want to get banned for posting 5 lines of code | 05:28 |
jits | hi guys.. i am trying to setup a dual display in ubuntu .. one is via inbuilt and another via a pci card .. but only the card display is being identified .. lshw shows both cards | 05:29 |
th2 | is this an user error only: I cant screenshot full screen flash movie like youtube? when I hit Prt Scr it exits the full screen. | 05:29 |
th2 | codebrainz, I have a picture. but its small. like the default player on youtube. | 05:29 |
simar | how con i change icons of .mht file in ubuntu?? | 05:29 |
simar | i want to change the default icon | 05:29 |
Flomaster | here is my error EOFError: EOF when reading a line using the program Sickbeard and Sabnzbd | 05:30 |
codebrainz | th2, oh, i see, i though it was always black, well that's not too bad then :) | 05:30 |
kickingintender | mht files wont even run inside ubuntu...they are ie files | 05:30 |
kickingintender | firefox kicks these files | 05:30 |
th2 | codebrainz, those 1080 dpi clips aint so impressive in a small box :( | 05:30 |
thune3 | un214: that is the one thing missing from your bug report. the impact. it is unclear how much time is "lost" from checking the partitions simultaneously instead of searially. [i agree this is a bug btw] | 05:31 |
un214 | 5x | 05:31 |
joshmuffin | Flomaster, what version of ubuntu are you using | 05:31 |
thune3 | un214: but how much actual time is that | 05:32 |
Flomaster | 10.04 lucid desktop http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/FP9Js8mL | 05:32 |
Flomaster | joshmuffin: 10.04 lucid desktop http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/FP9Js8mL | 05:32 |
simar | kickingintender, I had made these run with a firefox extension .. I want to ask is how in general we can change the icons of a particular type eg - txt file may be | 05:32 |
joshmuffin | Flomaster, what are you trying to do, what happens when you try to do? what do you expect to happen | 05:32 |
codebrainz | th2, have you tried just opening the screen shot utility from the menu ahead of time? | 05:32 |
Methose | Jordan_U: I'm still not able to view /mnt or /media in nautilus | 05:32 |
simar | kickingintender, is there good themes avaliable ..?? | 05:32 |
un214 | who cares, I'm probably about to replace the entire boot sequence anyway | 05:32 |
th2 | codebrainz, hmm I could try that. I use Print Screen key normally | 05:33 |
Flomaster | joshmuffin: sickbeard is searching websites for Nzb files it find the file and should send it to Sabnzb to be dowloaded but I get this error and the file doesn't get sent nor downloaded | 05:33 |
joshmuffin | Flomaster, from my limited python understanding it looks like there is a problem in the actual code. did you write it yourself? where did you get it, if you didnt? | 05:34 |
badmox | hi i have some problem with Solr, installed it, installed Java removed all and tryed again but always got "java -jar post.jar *.xml" "Unable to access jarfile post.jar" | 05:34 |
joshmuffin | !java | badmox | 05:34 |
ubottu | badmox: 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. | 05:34 |
thune3 | un214: because 2 minutes every 3 months is slightly annoying at most. | 05:35 |
Flomaster | joshmuffin: here is the entire error code http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/h2i38X4K | 05:35 |
codebrainz | Flomaster, you can add a try/except block around that and just pass on an EOFError to skip that file (if it's a bad file issue) | 05:35 |
leprechau | probably been asked a thousand times...and I'm sorry...but does anyone here know if there is a PPA for thunderbird 3.1-release for amd64? | 05:35 |
un214 | what's annoying is the obvious incompetance of the developers | 05:35 |
joshmuffin | Flomaster, can you please answer my questions then we can move further towards getting this issue solved | 05:35 |
th2 | codebrainz, ah I didnt even know that theres a Timer! thanks for the tip | 05:35 |
un214 | in trying to squeeze a few extra seconds they demonstrated they do not understand unix | 05:36 |
Flomaster | joshmuffin: sorry I didn't see your question do I didn't write it myself | 05:37 |
codebrainz | Flomaster, is it one specific file that won't work, or many? | 05:37 |
joshmuffin | Flomaster, try joining #python and asking there? | 05:37 |
Flomaster | joshmuffin: thanks | 05:37 |
thune3 | un214: fstab has a well defined syntax that defines behavior that is not being honored, it is a bug. But i don't think *this* is the issue to wage a jihad against upstart over. | 05:38 |
th2 | codebrainz, heres my problem caught on camera! http://dl.dropbox.com/u/8278927/youtube%20problem.png | 05:38 |
codebrainz | th2, if it's not a flash bug (more likely), you can try a different screen cap utility, prolly a few more in the repos | 05:39 |
joshmuffin | !botsnack | * | 05:39 |
ubottu | *: Yum! Err, I mean, APT! | 05:39 |
joshmuffin | !botsnack | /me | 05:39 |
ubottu | /me: Yum! Err, I mean, APT! | 05:39 |
th2 | codebrainz, hmm whats "screen cap utility"? | 05:39 |
codebrainz | th2, like the little program you're using now, but a different one | 05:40 |
Phoenixz | Why is it since like Ubuntu 9.10 that whenever my harddrive is busy that at once the entire UI freezes up? At times I cant even move the mouse just because the HD is busy.. | 05:40 |
Phoenixz | Anything I could do to get that better? | 05:40 |
codebrainz | th2, search in Synaptic Package Manager for screen shot/screen capture | 05:40 |
th2 | codebrainz, for what purpose? | 05:40 |
|ns|nR8 | Phoenixz, sounds like your hard drive is dying | 05:41 |
codebrainz | th2, to take screenshots of your full screen flash | 05:41 |
joshmuffin | th2, recording what your doing on your computer in video format | 05:41 |
joshmuffin | th2, or images | 05:41 |
Phoenixz | |ns|nR8: Nope, HD is perfect | 05:41 |
Phoenixz | its just busy | 05:41 |
th2 | codebrainz, ahh theres some kind of misunderstanding now. that screenshot is fine :) problem is that as you can see the video isnt "full screen" | 05:42 |
|ns|nR8 | Phoenixz, How do you know its perfect | 05:42 |
codebrainz | Phoenixz, is there a indexing service or anything like that running which is thrashing the system? | 05:42 |
Phoenixz | codebrainz: already looked for friggin strigi, not there.. any other ones I should be aware of? | 05:42 |
codebrainz | th2, correct, and I'm suggesting that using a different program to capture the image would potentially result in a proper fullscreen capture instead of the little box with black borders as in your screenshot you posted | 05:43 |
Phoenixz | |ns|nR8: because it was replaced like a month ago.. the one before had the same problem but crashed after the laptop fell on the floor.. | 05:43 |
th2 | codebrainz, but in reality my youtube "fullscreen" is just that little box | 05:44 |
codebrainz | Phoenixz, not sure specifically to find out what's using the most disk activity, but top/System Monitor will show CPU%/MEM which should indicate some culprits | 05:44 |
zulgaban | hi | 05:45 |
shishire | ok, sudo -i, then su shishire, then gconftool-2 gives me a different set of configurations than my normal one. Shouldn't gconf get it's values from my /home/shishire/.gconf2 dir? | 05:45 |
codebrainz | th2, oh ok. then my original solution of: "flash sux" :) | 05:45 |
Phoenixz | Also, when swap was in use, the swap stays, even until hours after when its not needed anymore (mem using app is closed).. I made a quick swapflush script that I run manually that does swapoff, swapon.. but that too takes like half an hour to run for 200 meg swap.. very very slow | 05:45 |
=== STiK is now known as ^oo^ |
codebrainz | Phoenixz, leave memory management to the kernel | 05:46 |
Phoenixz | codebrainz: thats the thing.. top shows nothing usefull (AFAIK) on disk usage.. cpu usage is like 30% and I can hardly move the mouse | 05:46 |
simar | hello, can anyone tell me what is gtk+ | 05:46 |
th2 | codebrainz, :(. sry for my english | 05:46 |
Phoenixz | codebrainz: well, my system noticably speeds up after I flushed swap.. its swapping like crazy while there is enough ram available.. | 05:46 |
codebrainz | simar, it's a programming toolkit which helps write GUI programs for linux/windows/maybe mac | 05:46 |
nascentmind | hi. When i do a sudo net ads join -U user I get a Failed to join domain: User specified does not have administrator privileges. How can I fix this? | 05:46 |
simar | codebrainz, whats the ful form.. | 05:47 |
codebrainz | simar, GIMP ToolKit Plus | 05:47 |
codebrainz | if that's what you meant | 05:48 |
=== ^oo^ is now known as STiK |
simar | codebrainz, ok i think i got it in wikipedia .. thanks | 05:48 |
simar | codebrainz, Is there a way of changing the default icon of any particular type of file in ubuntu ex may be text file??? | 05:49 |
codebrainz | simar, under /usr/share/icons, the themes there, just directories of icons one for each theme. change the icons in there under your selected theme | 05:49 |
codebrainz | simar, I think GTK mostly uses the system icons, so it should also use your modified icons | 05:50 |
Maletor | I need to purge and install alsa. However, it says it will remove ubuntu-desktop when I select to purge alsa, how can I stop it from doing that? | 05:50 |
simar | codebrainz, ok i will try .. | 05:50 |
codebrainz | Maletor, apt-get --purge --reinstall install alsa might do it | 05:52 |
Maletor | Let me know what you think of this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=6589810#post6589810 | 05:52 |
perlsyntax | Would be good idea to install the tar file of mwavem would that be better idea if the deb file not working? | 05:53 |
perlsyntax | :) | 05:53 |
perlsyntax | anyone | 05:54 |
Jordan_U | Methose: You can try mounting it again, or just boot and see if everything works now. | 05:54 |
codebrainz | perlsyntax, you can compile from source if you want, will probably get you a newer version, but might be a pain | 05:54 |
perlsyntax | i download mwavem 1.0 or should i download 2.0? | 05:55 |
perlsyntax | i see | 05:55 |
codebrainz | perlsyntax, use the version recommended by the developers | 05:56 |
perlsyntax | all i have to do if ./configure make install that it? | 05:56 |
perlsyntax | where can i find that. | 05:56 |
codebrainz | perlsyntax, on the website for whatever that is i guess, and see the README or INSTALL file in the tar for install instructions | 05:57 |
shishire | ok, something is seriously wrong here, and I can't figure out what: http://pastebin.com/7rdPGZhJ | 05:57 |
joshmuffin | Flomaster, from my limited python understanding it looks like there is a problem in the actual code. did you write it yourself? where did you get it, if you didnt? | 05:58 |

joshmuffin | soz | 05:58 |
joshmuffin | can anyone help me, im using ubuntu 10.04 and I compiled gnome-shell from source, when i gnome-shell --replace it flickers and is unusable for about 30secs before it crashes, terminal output: http://paste.ubuntu.com/456343/ | 05:58 |
codebrainz | joshmuffin, have you tried the gnome channel? | 05:59 |
shishire | http://pastebin.com/j0yAGjJb <-- Better highlighted version | 05:59 |
codebrainz | shishire, gconf settings are per-user, so with sudo, you're getting root's gconf settings, and without, you're getting yours | 06:00 |
joshmuffin | codebrainz, no one has replied all day | 06:00 |
shishire | codebrainz, no, but I sudo su to root, then root su's to me, so I should be back to my gconf settings. But I'm not. idk why | 06:01 |
codebrainz | joshmuffin, yeah, it's slow over there, they are very helpful when they're around. there's some junk on google | 06:01 |
=== KB1JWQ_ is now known as KB1JWQ |
joshmuffin | codebrainz, im gonna try ubuntu-devel | 06:02 |
joshmuffin | #ubuntu-devel* | 06:02 |
codebrainz | joshmuffin, is it anywhere near stable yet? | 06:02 |
joshmuffin | Yeah.. | 06:02 |
joshmuffin | but theres some majour issue with ati graphics cards | 06:03 |
joshmuffin | like mine | 06:03 |
codebrainz | shishire, maybe try the --login option for su, not really sure otherwise | 06:03 |
shishire | codebrainz, tried that too, no change. Just checked the file in /home/shishire/.gconf/apps/gnome-screesaver/, and it contains 60, which is what I see when running chained through root. But the current gconfd hasn't taken notice or something | 06:05 |
froes | hi, how can i make ubuntu reload all system variables without restarting the system ???? | 06:06 |
dim3000 | hi, how much swap space should i put for 4GB of ram under 32-bit? | 06:06 |
codebrainz | shishire, maybe the --config-source option on gconftool-2 | 06:07 |
froes | i have changed the path, did a source /etc/environment .. it works for the local user .. not for sudo commands ... even after running source with root user | 06:07 |
froes | any ideas? | 06:07 |
shishire | codebrainz, ok, this is getting weirder and weirder. when chained through root, gconftool-2 --ping returns 2, which means the gconfd isn't running. When not chained, it returns 0, which means it is running | 06:08 |
quietone | my laptop fell and I'd like to know what to do to check the disk. I have run 'extended tests' in the disk utility and all is well. But, should I do more? If so, what? | 06:08 |
codebrainz | dim3000, if you use hibernation it'll need some room, probably less than 4GB though | 06:08 |
th2 | When I do "swapon -a" output is swapon: cannot find the device for UUID=5b19d265-2804-436e-a522-73f31d204cf8 | 06:09 |
dim3000 | codebrainz: ok how much if hibernation? | 06:09 |
codebrainz | shishire, why are you substituting root only to substitute back? | 06:09 |
shishire | ahah! codebrainz, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gconf/+bug/290647 | 06:09 |
th2 | When I do "swapon -a" output is swapon: cannot find the device for UUID=5b19d265-2804-436e-a522-73f31d204cf8. But Im able to mount it via gparted :S | 06:09 |
dim3000 | codebrainz: 4gb also? | 06:09 |
codebrainz | dim3000, I don't think all 4GB, probably compressed or something | 06:09 |
shishire | codebrainz, I'm trying to see what the script I'm writing sees. It's run as root by NetworkManager, and has to su to me | 06:10 |
codebrainz | shishire, how come? | 06:10 |
shishire | um, NetworkManager runs as root, so all it's scripts spawn as root processes? | 06:11 |
codebrainz | shishire, but how come it needs to become you? | 06:11 |
shishire | codebrainz, so it can update my gconf | 06:11 |
shishire | otherwise it will try to update it's own gconf, which is undesired | 06:12 |
codebrainz | shishire, i think the --config-source option of gconftool-2 will work on any arbitrary config | 06:12 |
codebrainz | shishire, not tried it, but i believe that's what it's for | 06:12 |
shishire | codebrainz, will try. Also found a possible workaround dealing with exporting the DBUS session shell variable correctly to the su. | 06:13 |

yessir_turan | Hello, my startup programs don't work in ubuntu 10.04 | 06:18 |
yessir_turan | can anybody help? | 06:18 |
ridin | is there a program where i can convert .swf files into .mp3 files? | 06:18 |
codebrainz | th2, is that correct UUID? | 06:18 |
codebrainz | ridin, avidemux should | 06:18 |
yessir_turan | I have a .gnome2/session while with entry for yakuake | 06:18 |
th2 | codebrainz, how do i check that | 06:19 |
codebrainz | th2, do you know the device name (ie. /dev/sda4) | 06:19 |
th2 | codebrainz, yes | 06:20 |
yessir_turan | I added it using gnome-session-properties, but that doesn't help either. | 06:20 |
codebrainz | th2, then ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid | grep /dev/sdaX | 06:20 |
codebrainz | th2, where sdaX is you device name | 06:20 |
yessir_turan | anybody please? | 06:20 |
codebrainz | yessir_turan, no startup programs run? | 06:21 |
yessir_turan | codebrainz: none that I've added do. | 06:21 |
codebrainz | yessir_turan, try the 'command' from the terminal and see if they run then | 06:21 |
yessir_turan | codebrainz: yes it does. | 06:22 |
Alan502 | So what's the difference between a tunnel and a proxy? | 06:23 |
crdlb | yessir_turan: ~/.gnome2/session hasn't been used for a while, but the GUI should work (it puts items in ~/.config/autostart/) | 06:23 |
yessir_turan | crdlb: there is an entry in there too. | 06:23 |
ridin | codebrainz, avidemux can't open the file, do you know another? | 06:23 |
yessir_turan | Alan502: proxy is usually application level, it sends a modified request. tunnel is ip layer level, it changes your ip packet headers. | 06:24 |
th2 | codebrainz, that returns nothing :( | 06:24 |
codebrainz | ridin, pitivi, kino, kdenlive | 06:24 |
yessir_turan | crdlb: the Exec entry shows /usr/bin/yakuake, but it doesn't work. | 06:24 |
=== CaptainTrek is now known as EvilTrek |
yessir_turan | crdlb: codebrainz:, are there any logs of autostart that i should check? | 06:25 |
Alan502 | yessir_turan, ah i see, but they perform about the same task right? | 06:25 |
codebrainz | th2, try just ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid | 06:25 |
crdlb | yessir_turan: ~/.xsession-errors perhaps | 06:25 |
Alan502 | yessir_turan, in what environments should proxy/tunnel be used? | 06:25 |
th2 | codebrainz, now I see | 06:25 |
th2 | codebrainz, and thats not the same... | 06:26 |
codebrainz | th2, make sure that matches up with what's in /etc/fstab | 06:26 |
yessir_turan | Alan502: proxy can usually allow only those protcols for which it opens ports, e.g. it won't allow imap if it doesn't have to. No such things with tunneling. | 06:26 |
Alan502 | yessir_turan, ah that's a lot of help, thanks! :) | 06:27 |
yessir_turan | crdlb: thank you :) This is what I found: gnome-session[31742]: WARNING: Could not parse desktop file /users/mti2006/ashishag/.config/autostart/yakuake.desktop: Key file does not have key 'Type' | 06:27 |

crdlb | yessir_turan: it should have Type=Application, but the easiest thing it to delete it and create it from scratch again | 06:28 |
th2 | codebrainz, heres the problem: # swap was on /dev/sdb8 during installation | 06:28 |
th2 | codebrainz, should have checked fstab first... never learn | 06:29 |
yessir_turan | crdlb: Okay. Thanks for the help :) It should work on next start :) | 06:29 |

tzily | Hello, What is the command to reset my PPPOE connection? I need a new ip (it's dynamic) and unplugging and plugging the cable back leaves me without a connection until restart. Cand't find anything about this on google. | 06:35 |
tzily | It was more easy in windows ... | 06:35 |
bambam_ | Hi | 06:35 |
joshmuffin | !opinion | tzily | 06:36 |
ubottu | tzily: 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. | 06:37 |
joshmuffin | tzily, it was only easier because you already new how | 06:37 |
tzily | what? | 06:37 |
tzily | and how should i know how this works on linux | 06:37 |
shishire | codebrainz, found the solution. Basically the DBUS variable isn't set correctly, so gconftool-2 can't find the correct gconfd process to send the reload signal to. So it changes the config, but silently fails to update it. By setting the DBUS variable correctly, I'm able to get it to send the signal to the right process and voila! My idle delay for screensaver is now 60 min at home, and 10 everywhere else :D. | 06:38 |
SwedeMike | tzily: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ADSLPPPoE | 06:38 |
tzily | that's why i came on the support channel to ask | 06:38 |
joshmuffin | tzily, http://lmgtfy.com/?q=ubuntu+reset+PPPOE+connection | 06:38 |
froes | anyone have any ideas of how to reload all the system environment variables without restarting the linux server ???? | 06:38 |
codebrainz | shishire, cool. now write a patch for nm-applet to add this functionality :) | 06:39 |
codebrainz | seems useful | 06:39 |
tzily | joshmuffin, if you check that link you will see you have no right results, like i said i already searched google | 06:40 |
shishire | codebrainz, hmmm... good idea. I'll think about implementing that :D. In the meantime, I'll stick the script up on my blog with instructions on how to use it. | 06:40 |
IdleOne | !lmgtfy | joshmuffin | 06:40 |
ubottu | joshmuffin: Acronyms or statements like noob, jfgi, stfu, or rtfm are not welcome in this channel. Period. | 06:40 |
tzily | SwedeMike, thanks mate. i searched wrong. looks like there is no reset. it's stop and start :) that's why there were no results | 06:41 |
IdleOne | that includes lmgtfy | 06:41 |
codebrainz | shishire, port it to python, there's python-gnome and python-dbus and such, plus python-pygtk for writing a simple panel applet :) | 06:41 |

SilentDis | joshmuffin: no need for the /exec, it's sitting next to me, I'm sitting on the desktop hehe | 06:58 |
joshmuffin | yeah but im expecting to help you further with driver patching ect so i thaught i may aswell find out your card type in advance | 06:59 |
SilentDis | joshmuffin: rockin. Atheros on the ath5k driver. thanks muchly! | 06:59 |
miststlkr | codebrainz - that was the one I was looking for. I had done that on an old install and forgot where it was... That's a good one to remember... | 06:59 |
joshmuffin | SilentDis, do you need help with kismet ? | 07:00 |
SilentDis | joshmuffin: just getting it setup now, got a remote machine on my wifi setup to gen traffic, i'm sshed into it, etc. i want to see how it all works :) | 07:01 |

SilentDis | joshmuffin: thanks! ^_^ | 07:02 |
alissa | are there any ubuntu iso's that will start up with output to the serial console? i would like to avoid making my own if possible. | 07:03 |
SilentDis | joshmuffin: aha, network manager no likey me do this, it appears.... hrm... | 07:03 |
codebrainz | alissa, it's a kernel option, all the ubuntu cd's can do it with changing the kernel options | 07:04 |
ljsoftnet | anybody here? | 07:04 |
codebrainz | alissa, i believe it's console=/dev/ttyS0 or some such | 07:04 |
codebrainz | depending on your port | 07:04 |
SilentDis | joshmuffin: I know i can kill off network manager and such... but isn't there a way to spawn a 'fake' card in monitor mode for kismet to use? | 07:04 |
ljsoftnet | can i move gnome window text to the left? | 07:04 |
alissa | codebrainz: yep, i know the kernel options. but i want to make sure that i will be able to see that initial menu/command line so i can type the options. i have no physical access to this computer. | 07:05 |
miststlkr | One other question, if I may push my luck.. in Mythbuntu they added the Applications menu to the desktop context menu. How might I go about doing that? | 07:05 |
codebrainz | alissa, oh i see, I've never tested whether there's a fallback for the gfx boot screen, guessing here is | 07:05 |
trupheenix | i installed kubuntu-desktop on my ubuntu | 07:06 |
trupheenix | it changed my bootsplash | 07:06 |
trupheenix | how do i revert to the ubuntu bootsplash? | 07:06 |
alissa | codebrainz: yeah, i am sure hoping there is. but wish i could find some documentation about it to be sure. | 07:07 |
SilentDis | trupheenix: someone correct me if i'm wrong, but i believe `sudo tasksel ubuntu-desktop` can do it. probably a much easier and less heavy handed method too. | 07:08 |
trupheenix | SilentDis: ok | 07:09 |
trupheenix | SilentDis: what option should i give to tasksel? | 07:10 |
ljsoftnet | can i move gnome window text to the left? | 07:10 |
SilentDis | trupheenix: it's been a long time since i've had to muck with that myself... i believe `sudo tasksel` will allow you to pick-n-choose from a little menu, though. just make sure there's a * next to Ubuntu Desktop and OK your way out. | 07:11 |
crdlb | ljsoftnet: I don't know what you mean by that | 07:11 |
hey_joe | just out of curiosity, if one was to install using say, 6.10 server, is it possible to upgrade all the way up? | 07:12 |
Baribal | Hi. I just created a new swap partition and want to modify /etc/fstab to use the new instead of the old one. Partitions are referenced by UUID in fstab. How do I figure out the new swaps UUID? | 07:12 |
crdlb | hey_joe: not realistically; the supported path is 6.10>7.04>7.10>8.04>10.04 | 07:13 |
Flannel | Baribal: `sudo blkid` will list them | 07:13 |
ljsoftnet | crdlb: im talking about, the text on the window of an application like this " * Firefox - Mozilla - [] x" | 07:13 |
IdleOne | 6.10 being EOL complicates that | 07:13 |
SilentDis | hey_joe: Yes, but you've got ~500MiB*8 to download heh | 07:13 |
hey_joe | hrm, well 4 gigs is nothing.. | 07:14 |
hey_joe | but i see your point | 07:14 |
SilentDis | hey_joe: just think of the poor, pained servers you're about to torture! that's 4GiB of pr0n that will download slower for me! ;) | 07:14 |
crdlb | ljsoftnet: the alignment of that text is determined by your window border theme | 07:14 |
IdleOne | hey_joe: then why not just download 10.04 | 07:14 |
IdleOne | !ohmy | SilentDis | 07:15 |
trupheenix | SilentDis: that didn't work | 07:15 |
ubottu | SilentDis: Please remember that all Ubuntu IRC channels share the same attitude of providing friendly and polite interaction with all users of all ages and cultures. Basically, this means no foul language and no abuse towards others. | 07:15 |
trupheenix | SilentDis: i can't get replace the kubuntu bootsplash with the regular ubuntu one :( | 07:15 |
Baribal | Flannel, that left out that partition. Is there something like mkfs.swap that I could have missed out after cfdisk? | 07:15 |
hey_joe | because 10.04 won't work.. | 07:15 |
hey_joe | i need to go from 6.10 to 8.04 maybe 8.10 | 07:15 |
ljsoftnet | crdlb: you know any window border theme, with left window text? | 07:15 |
Alcohol52 | [trupheenix] how about making gdm default desktop manager? | 07:15 |
hey_joe | which is only 2 gigs ;-) | 07:15 |
SilentDis | trupheenix: It 'worked' for me way way back in 8.04 when i went from Gnome to KDE, but that was a while ago, and it may not quite be the same anymore. sorry :( | 07:15 |
crdlb | ljsoftnet: how is it aligned now? | 07:15 |
trupheenix | Alcohol52: nope doesn't work | 07:16 |
ljsoftnet | crdlb: its in the middle | 07:16 |
IdleOne | hey_joe: I don't understand why you want to install 6.10 then upgrade. download 8.04 or 8.10 and install | 07:16 |
Baribal | Flannel, nevermind, yes there is. | 07:16 |
Flannel | Baribal: You do need to mkswap, but you shouldn't need to do that to have the partition show up. This page might help: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq | 07:16 |
SilentDis | IdleOne: sorry, was just trying to illustrate the bandwidth concerns in a comical manor ;) | 07:16 |
trupheenix | Alcohol52: i am using GDM at the moment. i want some consistency in appearance. not liking the kubuntu splash screen. | 07:16 |

miststlkr | IdleOne LOL.. THAT common, eh? | 07:17 |
hey_joe | yikes | 07:17 |
crdlb | ljsoftnet: one example is 'Mist', but it is very plain; you should be able to edit your current theme | 07:17 |
Alcohol52 | [trupheenix] you got me wrong. What is your default desktop manager? Which one you choose while installing kde-desktop? | 07:17 |
hey_joe | and this will all work on *8.04* right | 07:18 |
ljsoftnet | crdlb: you know how to edit? | 07:18 |
Alcohol52 | [trupheenix] Have you tried sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm. It worked for me | 07:18 |
trupheenix | Alcohol52: whether i choose KDE or GNOME, i get the Kubuntu bootsplash when i shut down | 07:18 |
hey_joe | like all the other how-tos say.. but are wrong. | 07:18 |

SilentDis | Error404NotFound: the 'server', in that sentance, is your computer. I believe it's a limitation of firestarter (just how it works), and you set a static ip on wlan0 on the server (your) computer is all. | 07:45 |

iKernel | SilentDis, looks like I'll have to get help with this one though | 07:51 |
xpbootusb_ | if you have a 386-64 the amd64bit version is the package you want to install | 07:52 |
drowner1979 | i will try one more time.... | 07:53 |
drowner1979 | hi everyone. Dumb question: i just modified my fstab, is it safe to run "sudo mount -a" ? I mean, will it cause my root partition to remount? | 07:53 |
SilentDis | iKernel: semi-unrelated, but darn you. my wow server is down for 24 hrs, the Starcraft2 beta is done, and i'm gonna be totally bored tomorrow (my day off). you've now given me reason to live, play UT/Quake/etc. lol | 07:53 |
rileyp | lucid stops booting at initramfs after booting from my karmic partition Can anyone help me with this | 07:53 |
xpbootusb_ | lol | 07:53 |
iKernel | xpbootusb_, again, there isn't an amd64bit version of the package or else i wouldn't be asking. oh, and do tell me how one boots xp from a usb disk | 07:53 |
xpbootusb_ | i have no mouse so i can't play tremolus xc | 07:53 |
codebrainz | rileyp, does it spit out any errors? | 07:53 |
rileyp | it says /sbin/init is missing | 07:54 |
SilentDis | !troll | xpbootusb_ | 07:54 |

xpbootusb_ | kernal ubuntu has a 64bit version.. | 07:54 |
rileyp | and a few other things Im not at it right now | 07:54 |
xpbootusb_ | !mute/ignore silentdis | 07:54 |
codebrainz | rileyp, hard to help if you can't say what errors it display, it could be a number of things | 07:55 |
xpbootusb_ | i'm just saying that ubuntu has a 64-bit version that is on their site...you should try that os...unless your not refering to ubuntu os.. | 07:55 |
rileyp | It first says failed to mount kernal on uuid blah blah bla as root | 07:55 |
damian_-_ | sudo synaptic | 07:55 |
damian_-_ | ahh wrong window | 07:56 |
damian_-_ | lol | 07:56 |
codebrainz | rileyp, did you mess around with your hard drive(s) or partition(s)? | 07:56 |
rileyp | no i have karmic on sda5 lucid on sda3 swap on sda 1 | 07:56 |
rileyp | lvm on sda 6 | 07:57 |
joshmuffin | hey all I just added ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa and ran apt-get upgrade because i was trying to get gnome-shell to work now i cant boot, gets stuck on ubuntu splash | 07:57 |
codebrainz | rileyp, and you didn't muck around with the partitions? | 07:57 |
rileyp | lucid has been working fine for about 3 weeks | 07:57 |
indus | anyone knows how to get sound direct from the tuner card and not from the cable which goes from it into the motherboard | 07:58 |
rileyp | i went and booted from my karmic partition to pick up a few bits of code i was after | 07:58 |
xpbootusb_ | plug into the ports on the card itself | 07:58 |
rileyp | and then on reboot back to karmic it failed to boot | 07:58 |
xpbootusb_ | that cable that goes into the motherboard could simply be routeing sound and usb features to another panel on the pc | 07:59 |
rileyp | Its like when karmic booted and ran its checks it upset lucid | 07:59 |
xpbootusb_ | it should work both ways | 07:59 |
rileyp | and now lucid is missing bits | 08:00 |
xpbootusb_ | riley are these on the samee partition? | 08:00 |
xpbootusb_ | or hard drive? | 08:00 |
rileyp | yes all on a 500g wd drive | 08:01 |
Fudge | yeah uwjames athk5 | 08:01 |
codebrainz | rileyp, in Grub (press esc or shift to show it on boot), edit the kernel line and replace the UUID= just with your /dev/sdX | 08:01 |
xpbootusb_ | when you update an os on the same hd it overrides previous versions...this will conflict with the older ones..grub and ubuntu will want the newest shell loading..if each install had it's own partiton this would be prevented and qwould each be bootable | 08:02 |
renehollan | anyone have luck with postfix-policyd install on 10.04? | 08:02 |
rileyp | codebrainz can iI run update grub in karmic to fix it? | 08:02 |
rileyp | As yesd it seems the uuid is wrong like you suggest | 08:03 |
xpbootusb_ | you'll need to instal the other versions on a new partiton..and repair lucid | 08:03 |
uwjames | @Fudge good to know. Maybe I need to roll back the madwifi and give ath5k another go | 08:03 |
xpbootusb_ | but go with others adivice of course..i'm quite noob | 08:04 |
codebrainz | xpbootusb_, they are on each their own partition | 08:04 |
xpbootusb_ | good | 08:04 |
rileyp | xpbootusb_, karemic is on sda 5 and lucid on sda2 or 3 | 08:04 |
mshadle | does anyone here have vmware server 2.0.2 working under 10.04 properly? mine just randomly stopped working. | 08:04 |
codebrainz | rileyp, i guess update-grub will do his damage each time you run it, not sure how to configure it not to use UUID other than hand editing the grub.cfg file | 08:05 |
Aciid | hearly hearly, psad crashes on lucid , if you enable ENABLE_DSHIELD_ALERTS | 08:05 |
rileyp | Karmic had exact same problem a while ago lucid would boot and karmic wouldnt now its changed its undies and its the opposite | 08:06 |
jits | hi guys.. i am trying to setup a dual display in ubuntu .. one is via inbuilt and another via a pci card .. but only the card display is being identified .. lshw shows both cards | 08:06 |
codebrainz | rileyp, i'm not a fan of grub2's configuration system, I prefer lilo or grub-legacy where you were meant to manually configure it | 08:07 |
MACscr | after i updated ubuntu this evening, jvm no longer works. Any tips? One of my java apps cant seem to find jvm | 08:08 |
codebrainz | rileyp, under /etc/default/grub file uncomment the line GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_UUID=true | 08:08 |
rileyp | grub2 has always worked good for me but I think when I installed lucid i put grub in the wrong spot and its upset the apple cart | 08:08 |
codebrainz | rileyp, i think both versions have their own idea of what the UUID should be maybe | 08:09 |
rileyp | codebrainz yes this sound like the problem | 08:09 |
xpbootusb_ | ok i'm attempting an extraction of the iso i want to be bootable to the usb drive...then i'll make it bootable...should this let me install xp on boot via usb? | 08:09 |
codebrainz | rileyp, so the above *should* make grub use the /dev/sdX type device naming | 08:10 |
rileyp | I remember after grub was installed after installing lucid it said you should not have put grub here... | 08:10 |
codebrainz | rileyp, that's probably from installing grub into a partition | 08:10 |
rileyp | well it was all to late then.. If only gthe grub installer told me that before it installed | 08:10 |
xpbootusb_ | you try removeing and re-installing java? and its headers? | 08:10 |
xpbootusb_ | riley you find a resolution? | 08:11 |
codebrainz | rileyp, it shouldn't matter, as long as the one in the MBR of the disk is configured properly | 08:11 |
rileyp | xpbootusb Im happy to talk about it a bit before I run off and truley kill my server | 08:12 |
xpbootusb_ | haha | 08:12 |
xpbootusb_ | yea, if it fixes it i'd like to know.. i could possibly suggest it for other similar situations | 08:12 |
mshadle | why did vmware change 2.x to suck | 08:14 |
xpbootusb_ | ?? | 08:14 |
codebrainz | mshadle, it always sucked :) | 08:14 |
xpbootusb_ | define "suck" | 08:14 |
xpbootusb_ | xD | 08:14 |
ryuslash | hello everyone | 08:14 |
xpbootusb_ | wazuuuup | 08:15 |
mshadle | 1.x had a nice client side console. this web one is all messed up, heavy on java, so many browsers hate it, it decided just to stop working for me and i can't find any decent help for it. | 08:15 |
renehollan | 'lo | 08:15 |
codebrainz | mshadle, yeah, i made it about 5 seconds with that version, i couldn't take it | 08:15 |
renehollan | any way to get apt-get to give more hints when a post-install script barfs? | 08:15 |
joshmuffin | !apt-get | 08:15 |
ubottu | APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome), !Adept (KDE) or !KPackageKit (KDE) | 08:15 |
xpbootusb_ | -v? | 08:15 |
mshadle | i cant run less than 2 now, 1.x doesn't seem to work anymore on modern ubuntus | 08:15 |
renehollan | -v gives version info | 08:15 |
rileyp | codebrainz, If i were to install lucid or karmic onto a free partition would this fix it? | 08:16 |
codebrainz | mshadle, ever tried vbox? | 08:16 |
iKernel | Is it possible to still get a working glib-config script? It's deprecated and now replaced with pkg-config but this older program I'm trying to compile relies on it. | 08:16 |
codebrainz | rileyp, it's much easier to fix than that | 08:16 |
mshadle | ubuntu 8.04 maybe 8.10 worked with 1.x rck solid | 08:16 |
xpbootusb_ | 0.o oh, i'm used to it giving verbose infomation like with lshw?? | 08:16 |
renehollan | subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 10 | 08:16 |
renehollan | like THAT's helpful | 08:16 |
mshadle | vbox doesn't run as a service really.. and yes i've tried them all. | 08:17 |
rileyp | I know that but Im looking for an way out and if I can put grab back to whre it shpuld be in the process another lucid part wont hurt when things fallover if the y happen to | 08:17 |
codebrainz | mshadle, yeah, i have very specific/limited use for VMs ... although I'm sure you could get vbox to do it | 08:17 |
iKernel | What would REALLY be helpful is if I can still get libglib1.2 ... | 08:17 |
xpbootusb_ | is there a way to make an xp boot usb stick.. in ubuntu?? | 08:18 |
iKernel | xpbootusb_, probably :) | 08:19 |
xpbootusb_ | someone told me i need winPE or bart... but i havent found a good d/l for them | 08:19 |
rileyp | xpbootusb_, thats like saying can I swap my mercedes for a scoda! | 08:19 |
xpbootusb_ | well you could... | 08:19 |
codebrainz | rileyp, you need to login to each ubuntu version, do a grub-install /dev/sdX then edit /etc/default/grub and make the change i just said, then run update-grub, do this in both versions, you should be golden | 08:19 |
xerox1 | is there an alternative for mcabber that supports multiple accounts? | 08:19 |
xpbootusb_ | the scoda isn't as bloted xD | 08:20 |
xpbootusb_ | if ubuntu ran everything that windows did and more...it would be buggati vs toyota lol | 08:21 |
rileyp | codebrainz, when i log into lucid it stalls at intitramfs is this enough to be able to upfdet grub | 08:21 |
codebrainz | rileyp, change the UUID= part in grub menu manually each time until you log into each and do the fixes, afterwards it will boot properly | 08:22 |
xpbootusb_ | espeacially the ubuntustudio version with rt kernal | 08:22 |
xpbootusb_ | i'm loving that | 08:22 |
xpbootusb_ | it's over cloacked p4 too..it's niice | 08:23 |
rileyp | codebrainz, ah ok so i get the uuid of my lucid partition then edit grub manually log in the update grub | 08:23 |
rileyp | sorry then update grub with the info you suggest | 08:23 |
no-name- | ubuntu 64 bit. how do i get the right flash? installed it from software center. plays but doesn't let me pause or change volume. doesn't let me play if its a video on a page that doesn't play automatically | 08:24 |
codebrainz | rileyp, in grub on boot, replace UUID=blah with /dev/yourpartition once booted in, do the things i said | 08:24 |
xpbootusb_ | interesting | 08:24 |
xpbootusb_ | which java port you using? | 08:25 |
no-name- | xpbootusb_: how do i find out? | 08:25 |
codebrainz | no-name-, interestingly, if you right click over the play button, then with the menu up, quickly left click, it will press play right? | 08:25 |
no-name- | codebrainz: let me see, i'll find a page | 08:25 |
xpbootusb_ | well the offical java, the openjava, or iced tea.. it's usually pretty easy..they will be checked in the add/remove apps | 08:26 |
rileyp | codebrainz, thnaks very much for your help Ill have a crack after dinner ~ half an hour | 08:26 |
codebrainz | rileyp, np, good luck | 08:26 |

Jordan_U | featherofmaat: Why are you still using jaunty? | 08:31 |
chadi | no-name- yes | 08:31 |
codebrainz | joshmuffin, not sure, you could try reinstalling gdm, sounds like that's where it's stuck | 08:31 |
joshmuffin | codebrainz, Ive been holding down shift then booting into recovery mode and then selecting restart X option to get into the machine but its not a good fix | 08:31 |

bazhang | rod, you need to install ubuntu-restricted-extras for that | 08:38 |

I have sound working, however I generally mute some channels (using alsamixer or amixer, whatever) of my sound card to switch music from speakers to headphones. With 10.04 this has stopped working. Muting any channel makes them all muted. | 08:38 |

codebrainz | no-name-, did you apply the fix and logout/backin? | 08:51 |
indus | tsimpson, that factoid should be changed i think due to adobe discontinuing 64 bit due to some security issue | 08:51 |

no-name- | i'll do that now | 08:51 |

diverse_izzue | hi all. i'm for the first time using ubuntu on intel graphics (with lucid). i thought the intel drivers were mature, but now i cannot connect to my external screen, it just shows "input signal out of range". the same screen on a different machine also running lucid, but with ATI graphics, worked flawlessly. what can i do? | 09:05 |
no-name- | I went to mozilla.com and got firefox (only had option for linux not 32bit or 64bit) its a tar.bz2 file i know its an archive but what do i do with files inside it? | 09:06 |
Jon-- | My issue is I really really love uTorrent but it doesn't run too cleanly under WINE, so my options are Az/Vuze or installing Transmission on Windows.. or something like deluge I suppose | 09:06 |
mawst | Does anyone happen to know if photorec can preserve directory structure in it's output? | 09:06 |
codebrainz | diverse_izzue, System->Preferences->Monitor and configure the monitor under there | 09:06 |
no-name- | Jon--: transmission is good | 09:06 |
no-name- | lite and fast | 09:06 |
codebrainz | mawst, not sure but i doubt it | 09:06 |
diverse_izzue | codebrainz, i got that far... | 09:07 |
Jon-- | no-name-: I am not a FOSS fanboy.. Transmission is okay. I don't like how it makes filename.part when it's downloading. Makes it completely unusable by any other BT client. | 09:07 |
Slart | mawst: I'm not sure, it's been a while since I used it but I think it just gives you all the files.. perhaps it can sort them according to file type though | 09:07 |
Jon-- | no-name-: The web interface is nice when I'm not at my comp and want to pause | 09:07 |
diverse_izzue | codebrainz, xrandr shows the monitor with the correct resolution and refresh rate, but i get no image on the screen. | 09:07 |
no-name- | ok | 09:07 |
Jon-- | The lack of a scheduler, it handles magnet links weird, the DHT seems natively slower at finding new clients than uTorrent, preferences/options are limited... It's a "good enough" BT client for my needs. I may just install Transmission under Windows. Not really a fan of Vuze, way too flashy/tries to do everything. | 09:10 |
Jon-- | uTorrent dev for Linux would be amazing. :P | 09:10 |

willwork4foo | Hi all - does anyone know how to get the Networking icon back into the notification area on ubuntu Netbook Edition? I had a problem and needed to remove /var/lib/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.state - and now my networking works again (clearly, coz I am online!) but the icon is gone? | 09:15 |
gryllida | tsimpson, isn't joshmuffin answering someone's support question about torrents, why redirecting him to "ot"? | 09:15 |
joshmuffin | sorry i was answering a question | 09:15 |
tsimpson | gryllida: if the question was "what's the best torrent client", it's offtopic anyway | 09:16 |

willwork4foo | didn't mean to do that | 09:17 |
tsimpson | Jon--: I have not horse to get off of, now keep it on topic | 09:17 |
willwork4foo | weirdly, I now seem to have a virtual host eth1:avahi on my ifconfig list | 09:18 |
willwork4foo | is that normal, and I've just never spotted it before? | 09:18 |
tsimpson | willwork4foo: that avahi, it's part of "zeroconf". it's used when you connect to a network with no DHCP server so clients can communicate | 09:19 |
tsimpson | willwork4foo: normally you don't need it and it does no harm anyway | 09:19 |
willwork4foo | tsimpson: fair enough. thanks | 09:19 |
willwork4foo | So - I'd really like to get my networkmanager icon back... is it worth just deleting all my dotfiles from my home dir and rebooting, so I get a clean config? | 09:20 |
willwork4foo | or will that not fix it? | 09:20 |
willwork4foo | I'm going to give that a go. Drastic and annoying though it may be, it's probably the quickest route to fix. | 09:22 |

tensa_zangetsu | gryllida: i have. audio settings don't offer any choice. all 3 are set to pulseaudio server local and there's nothing else to select. must be a skype problem. a mic in another usb webcam works properly though. | 09:36 |

Afief | rww, thanks a million:D one more question though, I read that the 2.6.32 kernel's b43 driver finally has support for my wireless card, is there anything I should check out about why ubuntu can't use it by default? | 10:39 |
rww | Afief: Which Broadcom chipset are you using (e.g. BCM4312)? | 10:39 |
Afief | BCM4312 IIRC (dunno how to check in windows) | 10:39 |
Finnix_ | somebody expirienced to enable acpi after boot (even acpi=off parameter passed to the kernel)? | 10:40 |
rww | Afief: BCM4312 isn't supported by 2.6.32 due to a bug. It is in 2.6.33 and higher, though you need b43-fwcutter and the firmware it downloads then. | 10:40 |
^Jay2^ | rww: will that bcmwl set the wireless as wlanX or ethX ? | 10:40 |
rww | ^Jay2^: the wl driver uses ethX, b43 uses wlanX | 10:41 |
Afief | rww, oh :( so another 6 months of proprietary drivers | 10:41 |
rww | Afief: if that package installation fails saying you need additional packages, you can get links to them from http://bit.ly/9LBkoe , btw. | 10:41 |
^Jay2^ | rww: would it be possible for conky to display the essid from ethX? | 10:41 |
rww | ^Jay2^: no idea, I don't use it | 10:41 |
Mylisto | Anyone familiar with smartmontools? | 10:41 |

Mylisto | conky, you a TPB fan? | 10:42 |
^Jay2^ | rww: i see. i love conky but i still had to make it work lol | 10:42 |
rww | Afief: indeed. Even with the free drivers, that firmware I mentioned is proprietary, so... | 10:42 |
rww | Afief: and b43's performance isn't as good as wl's for me. | 10:42 |
^Jay2^ | rww: have you used compat-wireless? | 10:42 |
Afief | rww, still proprietary firmware is better than a proprietary driver I guess | 10:42 |
rww | ^Jay2^: no. I run crack kernel builds though. | 10:43 |
zGryllida | what is this thing called, when I can select a block of text, then middle click to 'paste' it somewhere else? | 10:43 |
rww | hence me knowing how b43 performs ;) | 10:43 |
^Jay2^ | rww: what do you mean crack kernel builds? | 10:43 |
rww | zGryllida: http://www.jwz.org/doc/x-cut-and-paste.html covers the various terminology | 10:44 |
Afief | zGryllida, Unix style copy-paste :P | 10:44 |
rww | ^Jay2^: the only supported kernel version for e.g. Lucid is 2.6.32. I run higher kernel versions anyway, using testing packages provided by Ubuntu's kernel team. | 10:44 |
rww | (which are unsupported here) | 10:45 |
^Jay2^ | i see | 10:45 |
Afief | rww, how unstable are those testing packages? | 10:45 |
^Jay2^ | because somebody told me that if i run a high-er kernel version, i can make my tplink wn722n wireless usb to work | 10:45 |
Mylisto | Anyone familiar with smartmontools? | 10:45 |
rww | Afief: they work fine for me, but I wouldn't recommend them to end users | 10:46 |

rww | ^Jay2^: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ . If it breaks, you get to keep both halves and #ubuntu won't offer support for it. | 10:46 |

Mylisto | thats the output I got | 10:49 |
Mylisto | Also, I think its due to my fan... | 10:50 |
Mylisto | as my fan apparently has stopped workinb | 10:50 |

azlon | how can i open port 80? i have apache installed but when i do nmap -p80 <myip> it says port 80 is closed | 10:50 |
MatBoy | rww: ls -lna shows me all file, also the .folder ones | 10:50 |
willwork4foo | I have to ask a fairly daft question - I'm using UNE lucid and I've managed to somehow detach my little white envelope icon in the notification area from Evolution. Whereas previously I'd click it and it'd give me the choice of mail or chat, now it just does chat. Also, it used to light up green when I had an email as well as a new chat, now it only reports new IM. Any idea how to re-configure this envelope icon to link into evolution again? | 10:50 |
Finnix_ | it is possible to enable acpi after boot even if acpi=off parameter passed to kernel cmdline? | 10:50 |
^Jay2^ | rww: is it possible in ubuntu to load the external's drive icon whenever it is plugged in? | 10:51 |
rww | willwork4foo: is the evolution-indicator package installed? | 10:51 |
MatBoy | rww: mv -lna or whatever does not work | 10:51 |
willwork4foo | rww: lemme look | 10:51 |
rww | MatBoy: mv .hiddenfolder destination | 10:51 |
MatBoy | rww: yes, but I need all... so do a mv .* ? | 10:51 |
willwork4foo | rww: nope. Installing that now | 10:52 |
willwork4foo | rww: ah, that fixed it! Thanks!!!!!! | 10:52 |
MatBoy | rww: yes did the trick :) | 10:52 |
MatBoy | was not sure atm :) | 10:53 |
rocket16 | Hello all, | 10:54 |
rww | ^Jay2^: no idea, sorry | 10:54 |
rocket16 | Has the Sound applet of Ubuntu been changed? After an upgrade, I see that the appearance is different. | 10:55 |
rww | rocket16: yes | 10:55 |
rocket16 | rww: I see, thanks. Has it been improved in anyway? | 10:55 |
rww | rocket16: It's now integrated into the indicator system. Whether this is an improvement depends on your opinion on indicators :\ | 10:56 |
rocket16 | rww: Tanks, :) | 10:56 |
zGryllida | Afief, rww, yay for ubuntu's unix-style copy paste, and thank you for your reply | 10:56 |
rocket16 | * thanks | 10:56 |
nikolam | do you use some indexing service on Ubuntu and how are you content with it? | 10:58 |
nikolam | beagle or tracker ? | 10:58 |
nikolam | what gui do you use with tracker, per example? | 10:59 |

zGryllida | Afief, rww, is ubuntu having 'x11'? | 11:01 |
rww | zGryllida: Ubuntu uses the X.org implementation of X11, yes | 11:01 |
zGryllida | rww: can you link me to something about it please | 11:01 |
rww | zGryllida: umm, http://www.x.org/wiki/ ? Depends what you want to know about it... | 11:02 |
zGryllida | ok | 11:03 |
tomas_ | hey guys is there a way to install the System indictors | 11:03 |
zGryllida | ? | 11:03 |
zGryllida | tomas_: define "System indicators". | 11:03 |
tomas_ | system indicators the buttons on the end of the top bar that houses the shutdown and restart buttons | 11:04 |
tomas_ | any omne | 11:07 |
rww | tomas_: did you used to have them, remove them, and need help re-adding them; or do you need their package names to install them? | 11:09 |
tomas_ | i need to install them rww | 11:09 |
rww | tomas_: which version of Ubuntu are you using? | 11:10 |
tomas_ | 10.4 | 11:10 |
rww | tomas_: indicator-applet-session for the shutdown/status/userswitch one, and indicator-messages for the Me Menu | 11:11 |
tomas_ | i get them from apt-get install indicator-applet-session | 11:12 |
rww | tomas_: yes. If that doesn't make them appear, right-click an empty area of the panel, click Add to Panel, find them in there. (I don't have them installed, and can't remember what they're named in there.) | 11:13 |
tomas_ | ok i have that installed but it shows up with "No Indicators" in the corner where they should be | 11:13 |
rww | tomas_: have you logged out and back in since you installed them? | 11:13 |
tomas_ | and reset | 11:14 |
rww | tomas_: odd. I'm not sure what to try next, sorry :( | 11:15 |
tomas_ | dam lol | 11:15 |
tomas_ | ok found out which one it is | 11:16 |
tomas_ | Indicator Applet Session | 11:16 |

MaT-dg | is there a tool to strip de videostream from the flashplayer so you can play it in a local player? I'm sick of the stutter... | 11:41 |
iflema | MaT-dg firefox addons, search for mp4 or cache them and fetch from /home/ian/.mozilla/firefox/xxxxxx.default/Cache | 11:44 |
iflema | MaT-dg replace the ian and the xxxxxxx :) | 11:45 |
shiro_ | Isn't flash content downloaded in /tmp ? tempnam is used to create it if I remember well | 11:46 |
shiro_ | The prefix is Flash | 11:47 |
brontoeee | flash is usually separated from the movie file | 11:48 |
brontoeee | and acts as a player/decoder only | 11:49 |
no-name- | what file system should i make this pen drive that i'm going to put ubuntu 10.04 64 live "cd" on? | 11:49 |
shiro_ | In this case, the link to the Mp4 is somewhere in the source | 11:49 |
brontoeee | yes, only depends on how 'protected' the thing is | 11:49 |
brontoeee | this will fail if there is real streaming going on thought | 11:50 |
brontoeee | the cache method i mean | 11:50 |
iflema | no-name no need to worry... just start the process | 11:50 |
Garp | Question: My laptop now makes some fancy noise when I open/close the lid; where can I change that? Thanks. Version: DISTRIB_RELEASE=9.04 in x86_64 using KDE. Thanks. | 11:50 |
brontoeee | no-name-, there is a tool for this process | 11:51 |
no-name- | brontoeee: yeah i know. i use unetbootin | 11:51 |
no-name- | does that just format it for uou? | 11:51 |
brontoeee | it should format as well | 11:51 |

Ruge | Hey folks, anyone know where I can grab ATI drivers for my fresh Ubuntu install? I used to have an nvidia one and there was a command, not sure about the ATi | 11:55 |
wildbat | how do i umount my memory card w/o rebooting? i pulled the card out without umounting, now the system can't umount/remount it. tried with -f but it just hang>.< | 11:58 |
hateball | Ruge: You should be able to find it in System -> Administration -> Hardware drivers | 11:58 |
MaT-dg | iflema: shiro_: brontoeee: yes, it's for protected content (BBC iplayer etc), can't find cached video | 11:58 |
iflema | MaT-dg FireFox you use? | 11:59 |
MaT-dg | iflema: yes | 11:59 |
Ruge | Hmm just did that and it failed :o | 12:00 |
iflema | MaT-dg ya gotta letem play first, choppy or not...... ~/<username>/.mozilla/firefox/xxxxxx.default/Cache | 12:00 |
shiro_ | wildbat: if $>mount shows your memory card being mounted, umount it. | 12:00 |
Ruge | hateball: SystemError: installArchives() failed | 12:01 |
iflema | MaT-dg plugin is the easiest way otherwise manually sorting by size and/or file type | 12:01 |
hateball | Ruge: and you're connected to the internet, and have fully updated ? | 12:01 |
wildbat | shiro_, like i said ~ umount just freeze | 12:02 |
shiro_ | wildbat: you don't try to umount the memory card while it's not plugged in, do you ? | 12:03 |
wildbat | shiro_, yes ~ | 12:03 |
shiro_ | if it's freezing while your memory card is plugged in, blame your OS (that is, linux) and reboot :). | 12:04 |
wildbat | >.< | 12:04 |
Ruge | hateball: Actually im downloading 10.04 as we speak and I'll install that and give it a go | 12:04 |
wildbat | shiro_, no other option? | 12:05 |
henux | Hi. Ubuntu 10.04 seems not to have /boot/grub/menu.lst file at all. What is the way to add my own kernel to the GRUB boot menu in this system? | 12:05 |
brontoeee | whats the file where i can setup ip to domain redirection? | 12:05 |
guntbert | !grub2 | henux | 12:05 |
ubottu | henux: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 | 12:05 |
wildbat | !grub2 | henux | 12:05 |
brontoeee | like 127.0.0.1 > myserver | 12:05 |
henux | Great okay | 12:05 |
guntbert | brontoeee: /etc/hosts | 12:05 |
shiro_ | wildbat: I don't have a linux box to test, but there's maybe a "service" under /etc/rc.d/ or something like that, that you could restart. | 12:05 |
brontoeee | guntbert, thanks | 12:05 |
shiro_ | wildbat: or try using a tool like fstat and grep your device/mount point from its output | 12:07 |
shiro_ | wildbat: I think linux equivalent to fstat is lsof | 12:08 |
shiro_ | wildbat: I mean GNU/linux | 12:08 |

Tobias92 | When I log in, I get a window saying that I can not log out (?) because gnome-power-manager is not responding. How can I work around this? | 12:15 |
Jork | Hello guys. I was trying to install latest intel graphic drivers on lucid, but gives me an following error; http://pastebin.ca/1891724. How can I fix this? | 12:16 |

aprilhare | hi. i want to install 64 bit thunderbird 3.1 - how do I do this? | 12:17 |
Tobias92 | red2kic, it gives me the option to "logout anyway" so I can login anyway. It's just damn annoying that I have to click this everytime I log in. Also, it makes no sense :( | 12:17 |
erUSUL | !ppa | aprilhare use mozilla ppa ? | 12:18 |
ubottu | aprilhare use mozilla ppa ?: A Personal Package Archive (PPA) can provide alternate software not normally available in the offical Ubuntu repositories - Looking for a PPA? See https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+ppas - WARNING: PPAs are unsupported third-party packages, and should be used at your own risk. | 12:18 |
red2kic | Tobias92: Something went haywire. Meh. I can't really construct an answer around that issue. | 12:19 |
Tobias92 | red2kic, that's okay. I'll try to reinstall gnome-power-manager | 12:20 |
aprilhare | erUSUL, i could compile from source... :) | 12:21 |
aprilhare | cause it aint on no ppa i know of! | 12:21 |

eFfeM_work | hi, is it (easily) possible to install a 32 bit kernel adjacent to the 64 bit one I have now? I have an app that does not work for 64 bit :-( | 12:51 |
laeg | i have intermittent sound in wine because of pulseaudio, is there a ubuntu supported/recommended fix? | 12:52 |
laeg | !pulseaudio | 12:53 |
ubottu | PulseAudio is a sound server intended as a drop-in replacement for !ESD - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PulseAudio for information and installation instructions | 12:53 |
laeg | very much "drop-in". | 12:53 |
iceroot | eFfeM_work: what app is not working with amd64 but with i386? | 12:55 |
willwork4foo | Hi - Does anyone know the name of the volume applet that sits in the notification area for Ubuntu Netbook Edition? I've somehow managed to uninstall or disable it, and I need to get it back! | 12:56 |
* cast wonders if that's a general question | 12:56 |
TenPhil | 'lo, when I try to open a folder from the places menu, it instead scans it for viruses with Clam... why? | 12:56 |
eFfeM_work | iceroot: i have an issue creating a gcc cross compiler for nios2 under 10.04/64 bit, worked like a charm under 8.04/32 bit | 12:56 |
iceroot | eFfeM_work: 10.04 != 8.04 | 12:56 |
Pici | !chroot | eFfeM_work | 12:56 |
ubottu | eFfeM_work: A chroot is used to make programs believe that the directory they are running in is really the root directory. It can be used to stop programs accessing files outside of that directory, or for compiling 32bit applications in a 64bit environment - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BasicChroot | 12:56 |
eFfeM_work | iceroot: I know, I migrated from 8.04/32bit to 10.04/64 bit and stumbled upon this | 12:57 |
eFfeM_work | Pici: thanks | 12:57 |
iceroot | eFfeM_work: with a new install you mean | 12:57 |
cast | eFfeM_work: i think he's suggesting you can't isolate it to an arch problem | 12:57 |
Pici | eFfeM_work: Unfortunately, I can't help much more than just providing the factoid. | 12:57 |
eFfeM_work | iceroot: yeah tried to generate the cross compiler from scratch, same source | 12:57 |
iceroot | eFfeM_work: so 10.04 32bit should work but you have not test it | 12:58 |
willwork4foo | anyone got any idea what the volume applet is called - running the volume control in the notification area of Ubuntu Netbook Edition? | 12:58 |
eFfeM_work | iceroot: that is what I was expecting,and that is why I was asking if I could install 32 bit aside 64 bit | 12:58 |
iceroot | eFfeM_work: you can have a amd64 kernel with a 32bit userland, i dont know if you have have a i386 kernel with an amd64 userland | 12:59 |
iceroot | eFfeM_work: i am using amd64 kernel with 32bit userland and its working fine | 13:00 |
eFfeM_work | yeah, actually I still have my 8.04 in a different partition, but when installing 10.04 I opted for ext4 which seems a bad move since the 8.04 boot can't access ext4 | 13:00 |

DarkStar1 | I can't enter my password through the pidgin gui I have touse the "/msg" metheod | 13:03 |
polomint | o | 13:03 |
TenPhil | willwork4foo: I think it's gvfs that does the volume monitoring... might have a tray applet. | 13:03 |
DarkStar1 | zulgaban: I'm get the security and support it, but in the name of simplicity... | 13:04 |
willwork4foo | gvfs is a userspace virtual filesystem.....!!! | 13:04 |
willwork4foo | TenPhil: are you sure about that? | 13:04 |
zulgaban | DarkStar1: nobody is perfect XD | 13:04 |
TenPhil | willwork4foo: indicator-sound-service is the process running on mine | 13:04 |
willwork4foo | TenPhil: thanks | 13:04 |

DarkStar1 | willwork4foo: I have the same issues too but they're gone now sine my apple slim keyboard has buttons to control it :) | 13:05 |
Tobias92 | How can I disable wifi from the commandline without using sudo? I'm trying to create a makeshift wifi killswitch, for the fn+F1 key will not work | 13:05 |
willwork4foo | DarkStar1: my netbook can control it with keys too, I'd just like to have the button | 13:05 |
willwork4foo | right - I've installed the indicator. BRB - logging out / in | 13:05 |
DarkStar1 | Pici: I'm for the security and don't mind it. It's just the login method. I spent the last 5 mins wondering why my password wasn't accepted | 13:06 |

bobthemilkman | I'm having trouble configuring my fonts to work the way I want them to. Specifically I'm having trouble with anti-aliasing on CJK fonts that are aliased to Sans. | 13:11 |
zGryllida | bobthemilkman: system > preferences > appearance > fonts > details | 13:12 |
abhi_nav | hello | 13:12 |
aguitel | how to hide text during boot and shutdown process ? | 13:13 |
bobthemilkman | zGryllida: My cjk fonts are still unaliased below a certain font size. | 13:13 |
TenPhil | 'lo, when I try to open a folder from the places menu, it instead scans it for viruses with Clam... why? | 13:13 |
bobthemilkman | Actually, they're unaliased between two font sizes. | 13:13 |
zGryllida | aguitel: not recommended to do, because in case of a shutdown error, it should show the error message, which wouldn't be seen otherwise | 13:14 |
nope | ubuntu is starting to bug me a lot (10.04 server) | 13:14 |
zGryllida | !details | nope | 13:14 |
ubottu | nope: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." | 13:14 |
nope | who figured that /var log cant be put in a separate partition? | 13:14 |
bobthemilkman | nope: It can. | 13:14 |
aguitel | zGryllida, a ok | 13:15 |
nope | bobthemilkman: it wont boot when we have lvm log.vols for /var/log /var/run /var/cache etv | 13:15 |
nope | it just hangs | 13:15 |
tom967 | I got a strange message on boot "udevd-work [332] open /dev/null failed no such file or directory" appearing a few seconds and then leaving, any thoughts? | 13:15 |
nope | commented out all the /var/... entries in fstab, voila | 13:15 |
polomint | heh, most of this goes whooshhhh over my head, but maybe, just maybe I'll remember this stuff when i have a problem,heeheheh | 13:16 |
zGryllida | tom967, does it actually boot, or is this fatal error? | 13:16 |
bobthemilkman | The only reasons for that to fail would be the kernel trying to write data to /var/* before it mounts them. | 13:16 |
bobthemilkman | Which might happen if you wanted to be using FUSE for the /var partition (can't do this). | 13:16 |
nope | bobthemilkman: seems to be an issue with ureadahead | 13:16 |
RobC0_ | polo: I'm trolling for golden nuggets of linux goodness as well... | 13:16 |
polomint | hehe RobC0_ | 13:17 |
tom967 | >zGryllida: it boots OK | 13:17 |
genii | nope: lvm stuff is processed before fstab, hence your /var isn't being mounted in this case before it wants to start writing there | 13:17 |
polomint | its handy to have this channel open, i might actually learn something, :) | 13:17 |
tom967 | zGryllida: it boots OK | 13:17 |
tom967 | zGryllida: but I loose a fex seconds on each boot | 13:17 |
nope | genii: thanks, maybe I`ll do another reinstall and do /var/xxx as logical non-lvm volumes | 13:17 |

polomint | is there a gui version of vim? | 13:19 |

guntbert | nope: the only f | 13:20 |
polomint | ahh thx | 13:20 |
guntbert | d | 13:20 |
zGryllida | tom967: it says (from GRUB) 'unknown char [32] you may .. [rest doesn't fit the screen]' on every boot, which I just don't care about | 13:20 |
zGryllida | tom967: you can try to wait for someone to help us though, I also lose several seconds on each boot as well | 13:20 |
polomint | zGryllida, do what i do.... ignore all errors, ubuntu normally sorts it out for me, lmao | 13:20 |
guntbert | nope: the only directory that I wouldn't put in a separate lvm volume seems /var/run | 13:21 |
chetnick | I want to add few things to kernel and recompile it. How do I do that (Without losing existing default configuration)? Thanks. | 13:21 |
Pici | !kernel | chetnick Take a look at these links | 13:21 |
ubottu | chetnick Take a look at these links: The core of the Ubuntu Operating System is the Linux kernel: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel - You shouldn't have to compile your own, but if you're convinced you do, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile - See also: /msg ubottu stages | 13:21 |
polomint | kernel? recompile? oh oh, im gonna run and hide.. hehh | 13:22 |
polomint | damn, i get scared compiling my own software lol | 13:22 |
jsquared | If I've got sudo powers, is there a way to set passwords non-interactively? | 13:22 |
chetnick | Pici: I was looking at those, but it does not mention there how to do it without using current config. | 13:23 |
chetnick | Pici: I don't want to do ti from scratch, I just want to add support for few things. | 13:23 |
chetnick | jsquared: yeah, you could write C program that does it. | 13:24 |
abhi_nav | whatsup guys? | 13:24 |
chetnick | abhi_nav: not much. | 13:24 |
abhi_nav | chetnick, hmm | 13:24 |
jsquared | chetnick: I could do that, I suppose, but there's no shell commands that'll do it? | 13:24 |
chetnick | jsquared: not without interaction. | 13:25 |
RobC0_ | Is there anything I need to do special to set up two partitions, one to install XP and the other Ubuntu 10. Should I opt for ext3 on a shared laptop? | 13:25 |
mguy | Doesn't matter | 13:25 |
jsquared | chetnick: That's for the best, I suppose. | 13:25 |
chetnick | jsquared: your input needs to be sent through one way encryption process, and that hash is store in /etc/shadow file. | 13:25 |

Pici | chetnick: If you follow the steps under "Alternative Build Method", can't you look at your old config and new config and use some or all of the old fixes? Excuse me if I'm way off on this, its been a long time since I compiled my own kernel. | 13:26 |
chetnick | Pici: That's the thing, this is default Ubuntu install, I don't believe there is any config. Now I've tried to extract .config from kernel image, but default Ubuntu kernel does not have support for that in kernel (CONFIG_IKCONFIG_PROC and CONFIG_IKCONFIG) | 13:28 |

bobthemilkman | I've found the error. The problem is file /etc/conf.d/66-wqy-zenhei-sharp.conf. This file makes cjk fonts look like complete and total crap. Where do I file a bug? I'm not sure what package to file this under. | 13:33 |

rkhshm | where does /etc/passwd come from? | 13:38 |
rkhshm | dpkg -S does not show anything? | 13:38 |
Pici | rkhshm: I would have to guess that it either comes from 'passwd' or 'login', both binary packages created from the 'shadow' source package. | 13:41 |
bugs_bugger | can anyone tell me why i cant mount my cf on lucid? | 13:42 |
rkhshm | Pici: but they dont show up in dpkg -S why? | 13:42 |
indus | bugs_bugger, whats a cf | 13:42 |
Wikitanvir | can anyone give me a direct link to download the .deb file of vlc media player? | 13:42 |
Pici | rkhshm: Because they are probably created either at install time, or by using the tools for the first time... or even by other packages when installing things. The files themselves are not part of any binary package. | 13:43 |

corpsicle | installed something, ill try restarting | 13:53 |
toyotafosgate | DarkStar1: It seems almost like the raid setup is not completely being erased and causing it to not boot correctly, either that or something is being messed up in Grub | 13:54 |
DarkStar1 | toyotafosgate: The problem is probably down to your raid card. Had this problem a while back when Sata first came out and my friend and I were using a custom RAID card | 13:54 |

airdem | is there and easy way to fix all this? or should i reinstall= | 14:16 |
PatrickBic | airdem, do you know the "right" file permissions? | 14:17 |
PatrickBic | z0net, is that your code? | 14:17 |
z0net | PatrickBic, yes.. all of it | 14:17 |
PatrickBic | z0net, try something along that: "g++ -Wall moo.cpp moo2.cpp moo3.cpp -o program" | 14:18 |
PatrickBic | replace moo.cpp (and following) of course :P | 14:18 |
airdem | PatrickBic, no i just went into rescue mode, mounted root partition and did a chown -R root:root on it | 14:18 |
PatrickBic | you copied your whole /home to some backup.. and back now.. right? | 14:19 |
airdem | yes and root | 14:19 |
PatrickBic | airdem, well.. from (guessing) i would say r,x,w to user, r,x to group and 0 to others | 14:20 |
PatrickBic | lemme see what my /home says :P | 14:20 |
z0net | PatrickBic, only the cpp files? or even the .h ones? | 14:20 |
PatrickBic | drwxr-xr-x | 14:20 |
PatrickBic | z0net, you dont compile .h files | 14:20 |
PatrickBic | they get included when needed/used (#include and stuff) | 14:20 |
multi_io | is there a kernel 2.6.31 source package that works with Ubuntu 10.04? | 14:20 |
z0net | PatrickBic, so "g++ -Wall *.cpp -o program" should work? | 14:21 |
PatrickBic | z0net, i wouldnt use *.cpp (maybe you want to place temp files in this dir that shouldn't be compiled ... just personal opinion) | 14:22 |
PatrickBic | i would use moo.cpp moo2.cpp and so on | 14:22 |
PatrickBic | so a list of .cpp files | 14:22 |
z0net | ok.. I'll try | 14:23 |
shishire | is there a good way to get a trace of all files a program opens? gnome-screensaver-preferences is doing something funky with it's idle_time value (i.e., not storing it in my gconf, but somewhere else), and I want to see what it's opening. | 14:23 |

ZykoticK9 | abhi_nav, FYI it's http://www.linmodems.org/ not linimodem.org | 14:49 |
abhi_nav | ZykoticK9, yes. it was typing mistake. i live in idnia? you understand? then whats the problem? | 14:49 |

ZykoticK9 | abhi_nav, i see perlsyntax is gone, just wanted to point out the url problem | 14:50 |

stickboy | ZykoticK9, any idea on how to disable? | 14:52 |
mibocote | being able to read the file every second would work, I want to watch /proc/meminfo to see how low the free memory gets, so I want to do something like ??? /proc/meminfo | grep MemFree | awk 'BEGIN { min=9999999 }; $2 < min { $min=$2 }; END { print min }' | 14:52 |
galaux | hum I see | 14:53 |
ZykoticK9 | stickboy, for mouse it would be VERY difficult to play perhaps if you did (thinking FPS). You can always switch to a virtual console ctrl+alt+f1 and run console commands perhaps? good luck man. | 14:53 |
cba123 | MikeChelen, Either way, is google-desktop something to worry about? | 14:54 |
stickboy | ZykoticK9, thanks | 14:54 |
galaux | mibocote, what about a small script with a while true loop? | 14:54 |
mibocote | that would work, but I was hoping there would be a way to do it without making a copy of the script on all the servers | 14:54 |
MikeChelen | cba123: worry how so? it is a good piece of software, just isn't open source and therefore cannot be installed through repos or updated by the community | 14:55 |

abhi_nav | k1, http://www.truecrypt.org/ | 16:13 |
k1 | abhi_nav, I did that in windows but it's not supported in the ubuntu verison :/ | 16:13 |
Avasz | abhi_nav, if there is no openssh server installed in the machine then isnt there any way to ssh to it? | 16:13 |
Benkinooby | hi i found out, that when the "lm" flag is set, my laptop has a 64 bit cpu. i typed cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep "lm" and i got lahf_lm. so is this 64 bit or not? the output of cat /proc/cpuinfo is http://pastebin.com/9G5VUs06 | 16:14 |
abhi_nav | k1, ????? it is a open source project. it is for linux. sure. read first | 16:14 |
Benkinooby | can some1 tell me, wheter i sould go for 32 bit or 64? | 16:14 |
abhi_nav | Avasz, read that link | 16:14 |
abhi_nav | Benkinooby, for 64 bit for sure | 16:14 |
k1 | abhi_nav, "The version for Windows 7, Windows Vista or Windows XP can encrypt the boot partition or entire boot drive." | 16:14 |
Benkinooby | where can u read it from? | 16:15 |
abhi_nav | Pici, now I highly recommend seriously for that !64bit factoid. Please consider it seriously. | 16:15 |
k1 | The most realible source in the world where everything is true. wikipedia! | 16:15 |
Slart | Benkinooby: 64bit if your cpu can handle it and you've got more than 4gb memory | 16:15 |
abhi_nav | Benkinooby, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/32bit_and_64bit | 16:15 |
Pici | !64 | abhi_nav ? | 16:15 |
ubottu | abhi_nav ?: AMD64 and EMT64 are fully supported architectures on Ubuntu. See http://tinyurl.com/3jkole and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amd64 for more information. | 16:15 |
azlon | for some reason i can't get zoneminder to recognize my cameras... anybody experience this? | 16:16 |
popey | that page directly contradicts ubuntu.com abhi_nav | 16:16 |
abhi_nav | Pici, i ddnt know that | 16:16 |
Slart | popey: you mean the thing on the download page about 64bit not being suitable for home use? | 16:16 |
iflema | Benkinooby sudo lshw -C cpu | 16:16 |
abhi_nav | popey, the link i gave is right. other is not updates. its wrong | 16:16 |
popey | Slart: it doesnt say that, it says 'not recommended' | 16:17 |
popey | abhi_nav: its community documentation, it could be wrong :) | 16:17 |
Slart | popey: oh.. they changed it? it's still nonsense.. | 16:17 |
popey | Slart: no, they haven't the bug is still open | 16:17 |
abhi_nav | Pici, can we add a sentence in it '64 bit is strongly recommended unless you have special reason to go for 32 bit' ? | 16:17 |
k1 | abhi_nav, Is there any other tool to encrypt the system partition that works good with ubuntu? | 16:17 |
abhi_nav | popey, its not updates. the link i gave is updated and write. | 16:17 |

abhi_nav | k1, TRUECRYPT WORKS WITH LINUX | 16:18 |
^DEMOSS^ | hello again | 16:18 |
popey | abhi_nav: i am sorry, I dont undertstand your terse replies. I'm specifically saying that the community wiki "recommends" 64 bit, ubuntu.com "recommends" 32-bit | 16:18 |
abuayyoub | Hi, anyone here use DockBarX? I am wondering if there is a way to put information like, volume, battery,networking, etc into Dockbar. I hate the indicator applet. it messes up my theme but I still need that info and the functionality | 16:18 |
Benkinooby | iflema: http://pastebin.com/muiwCDhB | 16:19 |
abhi_nav | popey, so? whtas your point? | 16:19 |
Craig_Dem | Put that info into conky. | 16:19 |
popey | abhi_nav: conflicting advice | 16:19 |
^DEMOSS^ | i have a question for msql packages - need i for my server "mysql-server-core 5.1" or i can delete it ? | 16:19 |
Benkinooby | iflema: with is 32 bits.. so is it 32 bit cpu that understand 64 bit commands? | 16:19 |
k1 | abhi_nav, I think you misunderstood me, i dont mean to be impolite. im using truecrypt right now to encrypt my storage harddrives. but what do i do about the system one? you saw that text i pasted from wiki about truecrypt system partition encryption now working in ubuntu right? | 16:19 |
abhi_nav | popey, there is no conflict. i gave him the link which recommends 64 bit. whats conflicting in that? | 16:20 |
popey | abhi_nav: as I said, ubuntu.com recommends 32-bit, that link recommends 64-bit, a conflict | 16:20 |
Benkinooby | abhi_nav: how did u know i have 64 bit cpu? | 16:20 |
collink | Is it possible to use both an nVidia GeForce card and an ATI Radeon card at the same time to acheive a 3-monitor setup? | 16:20 |
abhi_nav | ohhh thats why I gave the 'corrrect' link popey ? | 16:20 |
abhi_nav | Benkinooby, ??? whats your question? | 16:21 |
popey | abhi_nav: i give up | 16:21 |
abhi_nav | popey, me too. | 16:21 |
whlspacedude | i just recommend using the same architecture as the CPU for ubuntu. especially if you have more than 4gb of ram | 16:21 |
=== emc_ is now known as emc |
iflema | Benkinooby looks like a netbook.... 32bit cpu | 16:21 |
k1 | That's the spirit! | 16:21 |
abhi_nav | k1, whats wrong with truecypt? | 16:21 |
bastid_raZor | Benkinooby: cat /proc/cupinfo | grep -i lm .. if youget a result then you have 64bit | 16:21 |
k1 | abhi_nav, it does not support system drive encryption on the linux verisons | 16:21 |
abhi_nav | k1 hmm | 16:22 |
k1 | abhi_nav, "The version for Windows 7, Windows Vista or Windows XP can encrypt the boot partition or entire boot drive." | 16:22 |
k1 | From wiki | 16:22 |
abhi_nav | k1 i see. | 16:22 |
erghezi | rww: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+filebug/?no-redirect | 16:23 |
Benkinooby | bastid_raZor: this is what i allready did... i have something like lahf_lm. not lm alone | 16:23 |
erghezi | rww: here you can report directly | 16:23 |
k1 | I got a link in ubuntu-se now so i will check that out but thanks for yours time | 16:23 |
abhi_nav | Benkinooby, paste your uname -a result here | 16:23 |
Benkinooby | Linux box 2.6.32-22-generic #36-Ubuntu SMP Thu Jun 3 22:02:19 UTC 2010 i686 GNU/Linux but uname gives me only info about my OS. this does not say, if my HW is 64 bit | 16:24 |
wonkyHat | ^DEMOSS^: which version of mysql server do you have installed? if it's not 5.1 then you don't. You can always try removing it and see if that causes other packages you need to be removed. | 16:24 |
iflema | Benkinooby i686 | 16:24 |
abhi_nav | Benkinooby, its 32bit system | 16:25 |
Benkinooby | iflema: i was somehow confused, because i got the lahf_lm in my cpuinfo. but now i also guess it is 32 bit.. also because intel says so ;) http://ark.intel.com/Product.aspx?id=36331 | 16:26 |
zulgaban | hi | 16:26 |
bazhang | abhi_nav, that's just the installed arch, not the cpu | 16:26 |
Benkinooby | abhi_nav: thnak you for your time and efforts. | 16:26 |
Benkinooby | iflema: thank you fro your help+ | 16:26 |
abhi_nav | bazhang, yah | 16:26 |
abhi_nav | Benkinooby, ok. | 16:26 |
bazhang | abhi_nav, he wants to know the cpu , not the arch | 16:26 |
abhi_nav | bazhang, yah. i got it | 16:27 |
Oer | install sysinfo, it will tell you more about your cpu | 16:27 |
Benkinooby | ??? | 16:27 |
Benkinooby | so now the search goes on :D | 16:27 |
^DEMOSS^ | wonkyHat: iinstall "mysql server" then "mysql-server-5.1" then "CORE**" | 16:28 |
Slart | Benkinooby: listen to bastid_raZor "cat /proc/cupinfo | grep -i lm .. if youget a result then you have 64bit" .. I've seen that used before to decide if a system is 64bit capable or not | 16:28 |
^DEMOSS^ | but i think i do not need core | 16:28 |
abhi_nav | Benkinooby, you still dont know which cpu you have? | 16:28 |
bazhang | Benkinooby, cat /proc/cpuinfo | 16:28 |
Benkinooby | Slart, i did this, but i get lahf_lm i am not sure if this is 64 bit or not. i pastet all this to paste bin.... | 16:29 |
^DEMOSS^ | can i have problem if install "mysql server" & "mysql-server-5.1" ?? | 16:29 |
abhi_nav | Benkinooby, do as said by bazhang and see if a flag called 'lm' is listed. if yes then cpu is 64 if not then 32 | 16:29 |

cyphase | whats the best way to install python2.5 in lucid? | 16:29 |
Pici | Benkinooby: Alternatively, use lscpu, its human readable. | 16:30 |
Sereph | can the places menu be configured at all? | 16:30 |
datacrusher | is there a 3g monitor app? | 16:30 |
Exilant | Does someone know about the status of the ubuntu keyserver? http://keyserver.ubuntu.com just shows an "it works", and gpg cannot retrieve keys for it. Is this a temporary problem? | 16:30 |
datacrusher | to search for signal issues or something | 16:30 |
=== wonkyHat is now known as funkyHat |
Sereph | Exilant: "It Works!" is the default apache website index page | 16:31 |
rww | Exilant: It's temporary in that it's temporarily down. It's not temporary in that this happens frequently. | 16:31 |
Pici | Exilant: Likely, you can use pgp.mit.edu in its place if you need to download keys. | 16:31 |
rww | Exilant: also, keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 isn't the normal keyserver address. It's on some random port that I generally use Google to get to | 16:31 |
=== gj is now known as gay_jesus |
Benkinooby | abhi_nav, so has it to be lm or is lahf_lm also ok? i have see all these links you sent me before (usually i do my homework before asking questions) but i have no "pure" lm like the example from the site has. but i have lahf_lm | 16:31 |
abhi_nav | Benkinooby, 'lm' | 16:32 |
Benkinooby | lscpu did it!!!! | 16:32 |
gay_jesus | i want to use ubuntu, but i'm not sure it's for me | 16:32 |
rww | Exilant: keyserver.ubuntu.com:11371 , by the look of it. which is down right now, but for future reference... | 16:32 |
ddurham | any way to change the authentication order for ssh? | 16:32 |
ddurham | I see: debug1: Authentications that can continue: gssapi-keyex,gssapi-with-mic,publickey,password,keyboard-interactive | 16:32 |
Benkinooby | Pici, thanks. this tipe helped a lot... got Architecture: i686 | 16:32 |
Benkinooby | CPU op-mode(s): 32-bit | 16:32 |
Benkinooby | CPU(s): 2 | 16:32 |
Exilant | Thanks a lot for the clarification. So i'll try the other keyserver, and otherwise wat till it's fixed(so apt-add-repository will work again) | 16:32 |
ddurham | I'd like to force keyboard-interactive | 16:32 |
gay_jesus | is ubuntu supported by the homosexual community? | 16:33 |
Benkinooby | abhi_nav, ok, thank you, now i am 100% sure. lscpu is the magic command ;) | 16:33 |
bazhang | gay_jesus, please stop that | 16:33 |
gay_jesus | stop what? | 16:33 |
^DEMOSS^ | what about my question ? | 16:33 |
abhi_nav | Benkinooby, tell me also what happends? | 16:33 |
Benkinooby | abhi_nav, ? | 16:33 |
yessir_turan | gandhijee: Hello | 16:33 |
gay_jesus | homosexuals are great coders, i'm wondering if there's any on the ubuntu team | 16:33 |
octe | does anyone know if you can create a raid1 with 1 drive and 1 drive missing in the ubuntu server installation? | 16:33 |
abhi_nav | Benkinooby, ok i read it. good luck. :) | 16:33 |

gay_jesus | i want to know if ubuntu is supportative of the gay community | 16:34 |
gay_jesus | LjL is a homophobe | 16:34 |
LjL | gay_jesus: get out | 16:34 |
abuayyoub | someone please ban gay Jesus | 16:34 |
Benkinooby | lol | 16:34 |
voss749 | gay_jesus, as far as i know | 16:34 |
rww | voss749: they're gone | 16:34 |
abuayyoub | anyone here use a program called NZBGet? | 16:35 |
maco | and for anyone wondering: yes, of course there are gay people involved in creating ubuntu | 16:35 |
octe | ubuntu is a gay distribution? | 16:35 |
Benkinooby | -.- | 16:35 |
phuzion | Hi, I just ran an update from 8.04 to 10.04 (individual steps), and now my server won't boot. Any suggestions on how to resolve this? | 16:35 |
LjL | !ot | 16:35 |
ubottu | #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 16:35 |
abuayyoub | octe, i think this is offtopic | 16:35 |
maco | octe: its for all human beings | 16:35 |
phuzion | octe, go troll elsewhere. | 16:35 |
Elad | I am attempting to run a perl page from my base apache install and I have tried setting up the directives but the perl page still just shows up as straight perl code.. how do I go about trouble shooting this | 16:35 |
octe | phuzion, thought i might as well as probably no one knows the answer to my question :p | 16:36 |
keith4 | Elad: put it in /usr/lib/cgi-bin | 16:36 |
cyphase | Whats the best way to install python2.5 in lucid so as not to break 2.6? | 16:36 |
abuayyoub | Am I the only person on IRC that uses usenet? | 16:37 |
Elad | keith4, isn't there a way to do it in /etc/apache2/sites-available/default? | 16:37 |
azlon | when i nmap my ip address it says my port 80 is closed. i have apache installed, how can i open port 80? | 16:37 |
abuayyoub | I been asking for weeks and can't find a single person to help me | 16:37 |
voss749 | there actualy is gaybuntu | 16:37 |
LjL | please. seriously, stay on topic. | 16:38 |
LjL | i can't believe there's still trails of the troll going on. | 16:38 |
keith4 | Elad: scripts aren't executable outside of a script dir, by default. but you can change that | 16:38 |
phuzion | How can I tell which bootloader I have on my install? | 16:38 |
Exilant | azlon: well, depends on how you connect. in a default ubuntu installation, port 80 should open to the network | 16:39 |
Elad | keith4, it is bugzilla that I am trying to install | 16:39 |
LJRuff | Does /boot go in fstab and what options should it get if it does? | 16:39 |
OpenSourcedNick | I want to read news from a couple of sites (rss), which program would you recommend should I do it with? | 16:39 |
azlon | Exilant, im sure it is something i'm not doing right, but this is my first time playing around with apache. am i correct by trying to nmap -p80 <myip>? | 16:40 |
keith4 | Elad: doesn't the package handle that for you, then? | 16:40 |
Exilant | azlon: but that might be only local, and the dsl router/cablemodem/whatever might have a build-in fire | 16:40 |
dajhorn | LJRuff: /boot should be in the fstab if it is a separate filesystem like this: /dev/sda1 /boot ext4 defaults 0 2 | 16:40 |
Elad | keith4, I wanted the newer source so I installed manually - followed the install documentation to a 'T' but just get code to display instead of a bugzilla login page | 16:40 |
abuayyoub | LjL, is there a program I can use to scan my install for errors ? I have been having some strange things lately, my computer has been bogging down and the os becomes almost completely non responsive. no idea why. I have been considering doing a fresh install but I am afraid I will loose all my customizations ( which is nearly ever aspect of the distro) if I copy my entire /home file can I restore it after a fresh install if so how? | 16:40 |
phuzion | Exilant, eth0 on fire? | 16:41 |
Exilant | azlon: can you try it on the machine itself? w3m localhost or so in ssh if it's headless, or use nmap there? | 16:41 |
dajhorn | LJRuff: If you installed your Ubuntu system to only one filesystem, then /boot does not go in the fstab. | 16:41 |
ImaLamer | abuayyoub, best to backup both /home and /etc | 16:41 |
Exilant | azlon, phuzion: s/fire/firewall/ | 16:41 |
LjL | abuayyoub: there's a program to check your HDD, and there's a program to check package consistency, but those don't seem likely culprits of what you are describing | 16:41 |
LJRuff | dajhorn: / and /home have seperate parts | 16:42 |
ImaLamer | abuayyoub: you have options to restore - grsync or another might be best | 16:42 |
phuzion | Exilant, reference to "lp0 on fire?" | 16:42 |
abuayyoub | ImaLamer, oh yea? cool. Do you have a program that you can recommend? I been using back in time but all that does I think is copy the home folder. | 16:42 |
azlon | Exilant, so i did a nmap -p80 127.0.0.1 and it says open | 16:42 |
keith4 | Elad: you need to allow CGI exec in that directory then. try #httpd | 16:42 |
azlon | hrmm... | 16:42 |
azlon | Exilant, how can i find where the firewall is? | 16:42 |
ImaLamer | or you can try sbackup - though i'm limited on knowing backup applications on linux | 16:42 |
Exilant | azlon: well, what is your local ip? what does ifconfig say? | 16:42 |
Elad | keith4, sorry for my ignorance, does #httpd mean that I should ask in that IRC room? | 16:43 |
phuzion | I just ran apt-get dist-upgrade on my server, and now it won't reboot. Can someone help me out? | 16:43 |
keith4 | Elad: yes | 16:43 |
azlon | Exilant, 192.168.1.10 | 16:43 |
Elad | keith4, thanks | 16:43 |
switch10_ | abuayyoub: Im pretty sure you can tell back in time to backup any dir that you choose. I use rsync to backup. | 16:43 |
Exilant | azlon: then the dsl-modem/cablesomething/whatever is probably at 192.168.1.1 | 16:43 |
azlon | Exilant, 192.168.1.10:80 is open | 16:43 |
abuayyoub | LjL, yea, I am not sure what the problem is. The entire computer gets super hot, it boggs down even if im just using something like chrome. This is a new machine, its got enough power, and I don't think its a cooling problem because the fan is blowing fine. For some reason I think it is the power managment thing. | 16:44 |
ImaLamer | abuayyoub: your home folder is going to have most of your settings - but /etc should be backed up and restored as needed | 16:44 |
azlon | Exilant, right, the soho router is 192.168.1.1, nmap says 192.168.1.1:80 is open | 16:44 |
Exilant | azlon: and you need that device to port-forward to 192.168.1.10 | 16:44 |
ImaLamer | sorry, i have to go afk | 16:44 |
dajhorn | LJRuff: Then you do not need a /boot line. | 16:44 |
azlon | Exilant, it is forwarding to 192.168.1.10:80 | 16:44 |
LJRuff | thx dajhorn | 16:44 |
ImaLamer | oh wait, i have a question! | 16:44 |
dajhorn | LJRuff: Welcome. | 16:45 |
abuayyoub | switch10_, you recommend it? will it restore the backup after I re-install? | 16:45 |
pepePlu | hey guys, i have ubuntu 10.04 and damn there's a lot of garbage on my grub menu, how to remove the garbage and keep 2 entries, Ubuntu and windows | 16:45 |
LjL | abuayyoub: uhm, i wouldn't rule out overheating though. have you tried installing lm-sensors to see just how hot it gets? | 16:45 |
keith4 | azlon: lots of ISPs block incoming port 80... | 16:45 |
ImaLamer | During an update I replaced grub with grub2 - where (if at all) can i find the old grub options | 16:45 |
^DEMOSS^ | i install "mysql server" then "mysql-server-5.1" then "mysql-server-CORE 5.1" \\ can i have problem if install "mysql server" & "mysql-server-5.1" ?? can i remove core ? i need this pkg ? | 16:45 |
dajhorn | pepePlu: Describe the garbage. What is there that shouldn't be there? | 16:45 |
ImaLamer | basically, i lost some custom kernel options... | 16:45 |
switch10_ | after you install what? rsync is already installed on your system. man rsync. It will work better than any GUI application | 16:46 |
abuayyoub | LjL, no i haven't I will do that though. | 16:46 |
Exilant | azlon: there is a difference between the local interface 192.168.1.1 of the router thingy, and it's world interface with the public ip | 16:46 |
mistafeesh | Hi, just installed ubuntu server over a broken install of the same, and grub won't load - I just get a flashing line. I can see that this is a previously mentioned issue - grub gets confused if there was already a grub on the mbr. any ideas? | 16:46 |
azlon_ | Exilant, it is forwarding to 192.168.1.10:80 | 16:46 |
abuayyoub | LjL, any idea what could be causing this overheating? | 16:46 |
Exilant | azlon: there is a difference between the local interface 192.168.1.1 of the router thingy, and it's world interface with the public ip | 16:46 |
pepePlu | dajhorn you know full description of the os, i don't need that i just want it simple text, and also i want to remove the recovery stuff and memtest and stuff i would never use | 16:46 |
LjL | abuayyoub: no real idea. | 16:47 |
azlon_ | Exilant, can you nmap my ip for me? 78.154.204.181 | 16:47 |
ImaLamer | pepePlu: grub2? | 16:47 |
pepePlu | yes | 16:47 |
=== azlon_ is now known as azlon |
abuayyoub | LjL, it gets too hot to touch at times. could software cause this? or is it time to throw it on ebay> lol | 16:47 |
nanderv | @Imalamer: I have the same question for grub1 | 16:47 |
pepePlu | ImaLamer yes | 16:47 |
switch10_ | abuayyoub: sounds like its time to clean the dust out of it... | 16:48 |
Exilant | azlon_: seems to work fine | 16:48 |
mistafeesh | can I install grub2 from server install CD (32 bit) | 16:48 |
LjL | abuayyoub: well, "too hot to touch" may be OK, depending on which processor you have. for some, it's quite normal to get hot. it could be due to software, but software should never make it become *too* hot. | 16:48 |
keith4 | azlon: there's a site up at that IP | 16:48 |
Exilant | azlon_: i see a hello world from wordpress | 16:48 |
ImaLamer | pepePlu, did https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 help? | 16:48 |
Exilant | azlon_: pictures are broken though | 16:48 |
switch10_ | abuayyoub: is your system shutting down due to the heat? | 16:48 |
keith4 | azlon: although, it's misconfigured... because all of the content is pointing at localhost | 16:49 |
azlon | Exilant, ok, that is weird... how can you see it but i cant? | 16:49 |
abuayyoub | LjL, its AMD x64 newer Sony Vaio 2010 | 16:49 |
azlon | keith4, that makes sense because apache couldnt find my domain so it assumed localhost | 16:49 |
keith4 | probably a wordpress setting, no? | 16:49 |
LjL | abuayyoub: well i think AMD processors can get quite hot, compared to Intel. although i'm not really sure, because i use very old processors | 16:49 |
abuayyoub | switch10_, it boggs down so i cant even open a terminal. So I end up just doing a hard reboot | 16:49 |
pepePlu | ImaLamer it has a lot of stuff, there's no direct answer to my question | 16:49 |
keith4 | azlon: you won't be able to access your external IP from the internal network. that's just a limitation of NAT | 16:49 |
ImaLamer | abuayyoub, if the heat is sudden you may be headed for an RMA... make sure you have nothing running constantly | 16:49 |
azlon | keith4, nah, apache... i can fix that stuff later... i just want to be able to access the site here | 16:50 |
azlon | keith4, hrm... so how can i test? if i change all of my localhost references to my external address... wont they be broken here? | 16:50 |
keith4 | azlon: yes. and that is why you should use relative URLs | 16:51 |
switch10_ | abuayyoub: install hardinfo and run the cpu benchmarks. also check the CPU temp sensors. | 16:51 |
Exilant | azlon: well, the best way would be relative links | 16:51 |
ImaLamer | pepePlu, i'm looking | 16:51 |
^DEMOSS^ | i install "mysql server" then "mysql-server-5.1" then "mysql-server-CORE 5.1" \\ can i have problem if install "mysql server" & "mysql-server-5.1" ?? can i remove core ? i need this pkg ? | 16:51 |
Exilant | azlon: wordpress is notoriously bad there, though | 16:51 |
azlon | brb, let me call my buddy and see if he can access the page... not that i dont believe you or anything... i just couldnt access it at work | 16:51 |
abuayyoub | switch10_, ok hardinfo. I will do it now. | 16:51 |
switch10_ | abuayyoub: a freezeup during the benchmarking is normal. | 16:52 |
pepePlu | ImaLamer i wanted to edit grub.cfg but it said that i can't because it will be updated automatically anway | 16:52 |
switch10_ | abuayyoub: just let it go.. | 16:52 |
abuayyoub | switch10_, I do work this computer hard. I download a ridicules amount of data, something like 2tb a month, lappy is 6 months old so 12 -14 TB in that time, running constantly so I suppose it possible its a hardware issue | 16:53 |
ImaLamer | pepePlu, with grub 2 you don't want to do that | 16:53 |
ImaLamer | pepePlu: try this ... sudo apt-get install startupmanager | 16:53 |
pepePlu | ok thanx | 16:54 |
ImaLamer | well i see that has less options than advertised | 16:54 |
^DEMOSS^ | i install "mysql server" then "mysql-server-5.1" then "mysql-server-CORE 5.1" \\ can i have problem if install "mysql server" & "mysql-server-5.1" ?? can i remove core ? i need this pkg ? | 16:54 |
switch10_ | abuayyoub: it is possible, but unlikely. If its running that often, I would bet it is caked with dust, which can cause all of the problems you have described. I clean my laptop every 6 months. | 16:55 |
Aven | hello | 16:55 |
Pici | ^DEMOSS^: I don't understand what you are asking, can you rephrase? | 16:55 |
kesroesweyth | fa7trt62 | 16:56 |
abuayyoub | switch10_, crazy, I live in the desert too super dusty I bet your probibly right. ... can I ask how do you clean this sucker? just tear it apart? lol gonna break out my hammer lol | 16:56 |
Jao_madn | Anyone knows about compression packge for ubuntu 10.04 with nice gui. | 16:56 |
abuayyoub | switch10_, ok i got hardinfo | 16:56 |
bellman | where is the "Installed Application" list that pcmanfm uses to show a list of applications that you can possibly open a file with? gnome mplayer is in there.. I want to use mplayer nogui instead | 16:57 |
switch10_ | abuayyoub: unscrew all of the back panels, hopefully you can get to the fan/heatsink, and blow it out with compressed air. | 16:57 |
abuayyoub | cool cool, i think i will try that. You know, I also have had a problem with power managment. Ubuntu STILL dosent play well with sleep and hibernate for some reason ( had this problem since Daper Drake) i have several times closed the lid and thrown it in the bag only to find it 2 hours later like an oven | 16:59 |

paully | was it from a W7 pc? | 17:01 |
switch10_ | abuayyoub: there is still some hardware that does not play nice with hibernate/suspend. I would go into power management and change the settings so the system shuts down instead of going to standby. | 17:01 |

mistafeesh | agh got kicked off using freenode website as no irc client on this computer. was asking about fixing grub on my new install of ubuntu server 32 bit. There was a previous install on the same disk and it's confused grub. I'm booting into rescue mode from CD now. Someone suggested grub2, but I don't know if I can install that from CD, and it can't get it onto network as my wifi adapter needs tweaking! | 17:09 |
Pici | daniel: You should be using sudo, not su. | 17:09 |
Pici | !sudo | daniel | 17:09 |
ubottu | daniel: sudo is a command to run command-line programs with superuser privileges ("root") (also see !cli ) . Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE). If you're unable to execute commands with sudo see: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo | 17:09 |
dbpatankar | daniel : sudoers file is used to enable common users to use the command 'sudo' and not su | 17:09 |

thalib | is there a way to listen local fm channels straemed vib websites | 17:16 |
ImaLamer | trupheenix, you can shrink the volume in disk management - but defrag first (google defraggler) | 17:16 |
trupheenix | ImaLamer: Defrag and shrink ok | 17:17 |
ImaLamer | thalib, you need to find the website of the station | 17:17 |
Jao_madn | is ubuntu 10.04 is limited only to detect 2 partition drive | 17:17 |

Andy2113 | I'm having a problem with my iPod (mini. First generation). I installed gtkpod and am using rhythmbox. Yesterday, the iPod and all of it's music was being recognized by rhythmbox, and this morning the same music sounded all choppy and broken. I closed rhythmbox, and restarted my pc (unmounted the volume as well) and after the reboot, no music shows up on my ipod on rhythmbox, or anywhere else, though the iPod DOES get detected. Anyo | 18:17 |
sebsebseb | airgrace: np | 18:17 |
BlaDe^ | FOr anyone that has the same problem I did sudo rm /var/cache/apt/archives/lock and it fixed my issue | 18:17 |
mxe5 | phuzion: I'll do the normal "Install Updates" button - should be ok - possibly just hung.... | 18:17 |
ImaLamer | BlaDe^, we just had the same question in a similar manner | 18:18 |
phuzion | mxe5, have you considered running updates from the console? | 18:18 |
phuzion | er, the shell rather | 18:18 |
=== omega_ is now known as Guest44380 |
BlaDe^ | ImaLamer, i didn't see it- just tried to fix it myself instead (Or perhaps it was me who asked?) | 18:19 |
tucemiux | anyone knows how to use the ATI open source drivers and where I can download them, I want to use them for ATI HD 3000 | 18:19 |
mxe5 | phuzion: I forgot what the shell command is in Terminal for that. | 18:19 |
ImaLamer | BlaDe^, no it was the same problem, different error | 18:19 |
BlaDe^ | ah right | 18:19 |
ImaLamer | i think it's a common question | 18:19 |
erUSUL | tucemiux: there should be already installed | 18:19 |
BlaDe^ | are you supposed to delete the file | 18:19 |
ImaLamer | i have this problem a lot with my iphone + cydia (jailbroken phones use apt-get( | 18:20 |
BlaDe^ | yeah I use iphone+terminal/cydia too | 18:20 |
BlaDe^ | but haev never had that issue | 18:20 |
erUSUL | !aptlock | 18:20 |
ubottu | If an APT front-end crashed and your database is locked, try this in a !terminal: « sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a » | 18:20 |
ImaLamer | haha - i just fix them, not sure what is 'right' | 18:20 |
BlaDe^ | how do you fix them? the abve command ? | 18:20 |
ImaLamer | there you go :) | 18:20 |
ace__ | tucemix I think if you go to System>Administration>Hardware Drivers it will install them for you | 18:21 |
ImaLamer | I've had cydia crash during installs and had the same issue | 18:21 |
BlaDe^ | ah i see, I tend to avoid cydia | 18:21 |
PerryArmstrong | ImaLamer, any solution | 18:21 |
BlaDe^ | I only have a 3G and unless I'm just browsing I just use apt-get | 18:21 |
BlaDe^ | since cydia is really slow | 18:21 |
snake99 | hi | 18:21 |
snake99 | hows evryone | 18:21 |
ubuntu_ | what is the command to revert back to a 'screen' session? | 18:22 |
BlaDe^ | screen -r ubuntu_ | 18:22 |
BlaDe^ | ImaLamer, do you use ifuse etc to mount your phone? | 18:22 |
ImaLamer | BlaDe^, what terminal do you use? | 18:22 |
Andy2113 | ok... well does anyone know where I CAN get help for my issue, since nobody knows here..? | 18:22 |
ubuntu_ | BlaDe^: cheers, and how do i minimise the screen :)? | 18:22 |
ImaLamer | Never tried anything like that | 18:22 |
BlaDe^ | it's just called "terminal" | 18:22 |
BlaDe^ | often I use ssh too | 18:22 |
BlaDe^ | screen -d is detach, ubuntu_ | 18:22 |
ImaLamer | BlaDe^, I ssh and have it mounted / bookmarked here in gnome | 18:23 |
BlaDe^ | what do you use to add music etc to your library? | 18:23 |
=== konrad__ is now known as zomega |
ImaLamer | BlaDe^, honestly a windows box | 18:23 |
BlaDe^ | Ah, I hate the whole having to re-synch the entire phone | 18:24 |
BlaDe^ | if you use ipod-convenience and ifuse you can just drag/drop music in | 18:24 |
BlaDe^ | it gets the firewire-guid etc for the decryption of the itunes.db | 18:24 |
ImaLamer | hrrmmm will have to try that | 18:24 |
sebsebseb | Andy2113: you didn't get an update for your Ipod from Apple right? | 18:25 |
sebsebseb | Andy2113: they may come out with one that brakes Ubuntu's support | 18:25 |
ImaLamer | BlaDe^, so i can drop the songs in and they will show up in the libr? | 18:25 |
trupheenix | ImaLamer: hey i got the recovery thing running. i'm restoring the system to factory. at the same time i'm reducing the space required for C drive. now you think I can install Ubuntu on it without getting rid of the recovery image? | 18:25 |
BlaDe^ | yah | 18:25 |
badmox | hi im still on my solr problem "java -jar post.jar *.xml" "Unable to access jarfile post.jar" canged java from openjre to sun reinstalled solr but the error is the same | 18:26 |
BlaDe^ | Don't need to resynch etc | 18:26 |
BlaDe^ | look for gtkpod and ifuse | 18:26 |
Andy2113 | sebsebseb I haven't even upgraded my firmware in about 2+ years. My iPod doesn't hold charge, so I saw no reason to upgrade it. It was working yesterday as I said, but this morning it was all choppy | 18:26 |
ImaLamer | BlaDe^, glad i ran into you :) | 18:26 |
ImaLamer | trupheenix, so you will have some empty space there to create a new partition? | 18:26 |
trupheenix | ImaLamer: yes i made C drive smaller and created an empty partition | 18:27 |
trupheenix | ImaLamer: another partition basically | 18:27 |
ImaLamer | trupheenix, then you are on the way :) | 18:27 |
ImaLamer | /cheer | 18:27 |

ImaLamer | go ahead and format the partition and label it | 18:27 |
ImaLamer | just to be sure which you will later reformat (ya dig?) | 18:28 |
Daekdroom | Somehow my sound icon on the notification bar disappeared and I want it back.. Lucid 10.04 | 18:28 |
ImaLamer | Daekdroom, do you still have sound? | 18:28 |
xangua | Daekdroom: add the indicator applet to the panel | 18:28 |
Daekdroom | xangua, what should I do after its already there? | 18:28 |

ImaLamer | trupheenix, want to install from a usb stick? | 18:28 |

offy | I changed fstab to mount sdb1 to /home/david/Desktop but the permissions are all root | 18:41 |
kappa_52 | how to take all permissions for a mounted drive ? | 18:41 |
Pici | jove: What package? | 18:42 |
offy | I can't change permissions of the mounted drive | 18:42 |
offy | i tried chown -R david:users | 18:42 |
unop | kappa_52, depends on the filesystem of the mounted volume. | 18:42 |
jove | vpnclient....rpm : Pici | 18:42 |
unop | offy, what filesystem? | 18:42 |
sjm | !alien | jove | 18:42 |
ubottu | jove: RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous and unsupported) | 18:42 |
offy | ntfs | 18:42 |
offy | unop: ntfs | 18:43 |
unop | offy, you can't do that then -- ntfs does not understand unix permissions | 18:43 |
jove | Pici: it's vpnclient.rpm | 18:43 |
notmorewindows | help. s.o.s. hi i have this problem with vuze:(Vuze:5503): Gdk-WARNING **: XID collision, trouble ahead | 18:43 |
offy | unop: Before I formatted I had it working. | 18:43 |
SuperMiguel | is there a tool for intel video card system like nvidia-settings ??? | 18:43 |
Pici | jove: There are a few vpn client applications in the repos, you shouldn't use an RPM package unless you absolutely have to, and chances are if it needs to integrate with other already installed packages, it won't work. | 18:43 |
sjm | !alien | jove | 18:43 |
jove | Pici: here is the actual pkg: vpnclient-linux-4.8-8.EL5.i386.rpm | 18:44 |
unop | offy, to accept the chown command, i don't think so. | 18:44 |
kappa_52 | chmod 666 what was the command please tell me ! :( | 18:44 |
offy | unop: Thanks. I'll probably change it to ext4 | 18:44 |
kappa_52 | ext4 filesystem | 18:44 |
Pepr | how do I change the umask in apache? | 18:44 |
unop | offy, but first, why are you wanting to change the owners here? | 18:44 |
notmorewindows | hi i have this problem with vuze:(Vuze:5503): Gdk-WARNING **: XID collision, trouble ahead | 18:44 |
Pici | jove: Have you looked in our package repositories first? | 18:44 |
offy | unop: My second harddrive is used for files only. So I want all files saved there that are on desktop. | 18:45 |
offy | unop: They are all root right now | 18:45 |
unop | offy, you're using the ntfs drive as a backup? | 18:45 |
jove | Pici, it's the specific certificate bundled in it, so I have to use rpm pkg | 18:45 |
offy | unop: yes | 18:45 |
dax2112rush2 | I have a persistant entry in my routing table I'd like to get rid of. How can I find out what is adding it? | 18:46 |
tenochslb | Guys alsa is not loading or working in my lucid lynx, it was working but now it does not. I need HELP!!1 | 18:46 |
unop | offy, you could use tar to create the backups -- and store the tar files on the ntfs drive - you'll preserve permissions and ownership that way. | 18:46 |
Pici | !alien | jove | 18:46 |
ubottu | jove: RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous and unsupported) | 18:46 |
unop | offy, but yea, probably much easier if you converted to EXTx | 18:46 |
jove | Pici, Currently I had my vpnclient up and run now, but the certificate will be expired the end of this month, so I have to update the vpnclient certificate | 18:47 |
