abstrakti've got totem and rhythmbox both auto connecting to jack01:44
naibedabstrakt: wait, I don't remember the plugin's name...01:44
abstraktk01:44
naibedplugger I think01:44
abstraktok, and plugger is a plugin for...01:44
abstrakt?01:44
abstraktfirefox?01:45
naibedYes01:45
abstraktk01:45
mj8741sha1sum: I think I'll make a website - addicted to Ubuntu01:45
naibedI think you can configure It to do whatever you want with any web content type01:45
naibedabstrakt: but there's a totem-gstreamer-firefox-plugin I think01:46
yakubis pidgin still the graphical chat client to use ?  or is it something else now?  confused01:46
xanguaabstrakt: mozplugger01:46
abstraktnaibed, google results for plugger, firefox plugger, and plugger firefox are very not what i want01:46
naibedoh, sorry, MOZplugger, not just plugger!01:46
abstraktxangua, ah ok thx01:46
abstraktk great01:46
xanguayakub: pidgin uses gtk, finch is cli, both uses libpurple01:46
naibedMy bad01:46
yakubxangua: what's that thing i see in gnome ubuntu drop down menu under my user, top bar, says "available" "busy" "away" etc01:47
mj8741naibed: yes, that's correct - can get from package manager01:47
abstraktok what do i do with mozplugger?01:47
abstraktis it available from the repos?01:47
xanguaactually mozplugger is just to open certain files embeded in the browser using external apps abstrakt01:47
abstraktyeh01:48
abstrakti want to have sound from flash01:48
xanguayakub: indicator session is called01:48
abstraktbe played through jack01:48
naibedSounds difficult to do that01:48
naibedYou can use a wrapper to launch firefox uhmm..01:49
Barridusis there a command to copy all *.mp3 files from a hierarchy of folders into one destination folder without recreating the folder paths?01:49
abstraktBarridus, not a single command no, but you can do it with bash01:49
naibedBarridus: find /directory/with/mp3 -iname "*.mp3" -exec cp {} /allmp3 \;01:49
a-stray-cathullo, anyone here have an alienware area-51?01:49
k0d3g3arGrazzMan, rsync is pretty fast01:49
abstraktBarridus, use xargs instead01:49
a-stray-catfor some reason, when i boot to windows grub dies01:49
a-stray-catand i can't reboot anymore01:50
naibedabstrakt: no need to, with find :)01:50
abstraktuh... spaces?01:50
abstraktiirc they can still break, even with quotes01:50
GrazzMank0d3g3ar: Not fast enoph...01:50
Barridusxargs?01:50
naibedohh01:50
naibedlet me see01:50
k0d3g3arGrazzMan, maybe the first time its not that fast, but after that it goes like a rocket01:50
abstraktBarridus, find . -name \*.mp3 -print0 | xargs -0 mv /where/you/want/the/files/to/go01:50
abstrakter01:50
abstraktwait, actually i think you need to use01:51
GrazzMantry, the syncs are find, its this 4T move that is taking hours01:51
unopabstrakt, actually, you don't need xargs - even with spaces01:51
k0d3g3arGrazzMan, what type of interfaces do you have on the drives?01:51
abstraktBarridus, find . -name \*.mp3 -print0 | xargs -0 $1 mv /where/you/want/the/files/to/go01:51
abstraktor something similar01:51
naibedabstrakt: I tested my command, It works with files with spaces...01:51
abstraktunop, ok, well then find is special i guess01:51
GrazzMank0d3: EXT4 Linux01:51
unopabstrakt,  errm, that last one looks dodgy01:51
naibedNo need to use xargs I think, maybe find already scapes It01:51
k0d3g3arGrazzMan, yeh, but firewire, USB, eSata?01:51
abstraktlol oops01:51
GrazzManSata01:51
abstraktyeh there's a syntax err in that too01:51
k0d3g3arGrazzMan, k, not sure if there is much you can do to speed that up01:52
naibedabstrakt: find /directory/with/mp3 -iname "*.mp3" -exec cp {} /allmp3 \; try It...It works01:52
abstraktnaibed, so what do you mean by launch firefox with a wrapper01:52
shubbar"checking for libxml - version >= 2.6.0... no"!!! I have it 2.7.601:52
GrazzMankod, yep... maby tomorrow it will be done... :)01:52
k0d3g3arGrazzMan, patience is a virtue01:52
naibedabstrakt: I remember there was a command line utility to launch programms and force them to use OSS or ALSA, don't remember01:52
abstraktlol01:53
naibedabstrakt: maybe there's something for jack01:53
GrazzMank0d3: not when setting up a new server.01:53
abstraktto paraphrase "I remember..... eehhh, wait i don't remember"01:53
k0d3g3arGrazzMan, you should be grateful you aren't doing it with floppies01:53
naibedartsdsp !01:53
abstraktnaibed, well, gstreamer jackaudiosink01:53
abstraktseems to be it01:53
shubbarlibxml2 is already the newest version; How can I fix this?01:53
Agu10is there any driver for ubuntu to suspend alright?01:53
GrazzManI want to put one in my server just for fun01:53
abstraktand i don't think the totem plugin plays flash sound01:53
abstrakti think it just plays sound if the totem plugin is playing back e.g. and mp3 or a video or something01:54
k0d3g3arGrazzMan, I got an old 8" floppy drive here you can try if you want01:54
danielhey guys I have problem when I trying use a .sh script into conky ..when conky runs the script it says in terminal permissions denied please help me out01:54

Agu10is there a way to make my laptop ad-hoc wifi be like an access point?02:08
unophanasaki, well, what I would do is have another script that polled the .pid file periodically and checked if the process was running and then nuke the file if not.02:08
Agu10because it is connected by a cable to the internet02:08
Ego_Proctorthanks02:08
hanasakiunop:  naibed ... I am open to suggestions...   The key is that it runs as a daemon , makes a  pid file,   pidfile is cleaned up FAST if the daemon exits on its own02:08
melkorAgu10: depends on the card probably.02:08
unophanasaki, you could have the init script do that too -- as a separate component i.e. apart from starting/stopping the daemon.02:08

ImaLamerhow can i find my cursor theme in gconf-editor?02:39
ImaLameri can't set it through appearance...02:39
trismImaLamer: /desktop/gnome/interface/icon_theme (it seems)02:40
codebrainzImaLamer, i think it's an X setting, not gnome02:40
ImaLamerhrrmm02:41
codebrainzImaLamer, but you should be able to pick a theme through Appearances.  does it give an error when you change it?02:41
ImaLamerjust does nothing02:41
codebrainzImaLamer, might have to logout/log back in02:41
naibedwow, I don't even remember where were X coursors at02:41
ImaLamernaibed, i think that's half my issue02:42
codebrainznaibed, i think they're packed into some special format or something02:42
naibedSeems like in /usr/local/share/cursors/xorg-x11/, or ~/.icons/02:43
DanaGhmm, something weird: when I have udev auto-mount my volumes, I end up with the same volume listed in Nautilus, twice.02:43
DanaGOne mounted, one unmounted.02:43
codebrainznaibed, the .theme files are in /etc/X11/cursors as well i believe02:44
DanaGThe only reason I have to do that, is because udisks won't acknowledge that SATA is hot-swappable.02:44

codebrainzImaLamer, http://www.debianadmin.com/howto-change-default-cursor-theme-in-debian.html  might help02:48
ImaLamerty02:49
pimsImaLamer > I don't think so. I want to be able to run this group of windows whenever I want02:49
codebrainzpims, i could think of a way, but it's not trivial02:49
ImaLamerthen maybe a bash script that launches them02:49
pimsyeah probably.. thought there would be a simple way02:50
pimscodebrainz > yes ?02:50
codebrainzpims, do you just want to open a bunch of windows, or do you want to save the current windows open and their sizes/positions/workspaces and be able to reload them exactly later?02:51
codebrainzif it's the former, then what ImaLamer is a very simple way to accomplish it.02:51
pimsI want to save a bunch of terminals with their positions, size and all02:51
naibedOh, just terminals!02:51
ZykoticK9ImaLamer, if you're trying to change the default pointer - try disabling compiz, then see if the pointer shows up correctly.02:52
naibedA shell script is not difficult to do...Use geometry modifiers02:52
kermit`Dear all, my system is ubuntu 10.04 Gnome desktop. I had installed w3m-el and emacs. But I can't use M-x w3m to setup w3m in emacs. How can I solve it?02:52
codebrainznaibed, it won't save though, and it's not an arbitrary locations and such02:53

ABBADONHi, I think I'm having problems with either X or GNOME, I'm not sure which.  I am using an HP desktop with 10.04 and kernel version 2.6.32-22-generic  with an Intel Celeron 2.50GHz processor.  It crashes after logging into a GNOME session occasionally, and definitely crashes after anywhere between a half hour and 8 hours of actual use.  I've tried reconfiguring X, I've tried searching...04:12
ABBADON...Google, searching various forums and still have not found a solution.  Has anyone help me figure out the cause of these random reboots?  I can provide logs if needed.04:12

ABBADONIt seems as though X is crashing, but considering how it doesn't power off when I shut down without issuing a sudo init 0 command, I'm guessing it could be rebooting.  How do I figure that out?04:14

ABBADONgreezmunkey: At least, that's what I assume is going on.  What would I look for in the system logs to determine what's going on?04:52
SockPupCameOnexcept there is this one website that won't open in any ubuntu browser but works on other OSes04:52
greezmunkeyABBADON: but when it does, the system continues to operate? Do you get a console login prompt?04:52
perlsyntaxhttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Bugs/Lucidi8xxFreezes here the link04:53
SockPupCameOnit has me download a php file04:53
ImaLamerperlsyntax, if you see the same thing after the install you need to add that option permanently04:53
SockPupCameOnfor some reason04:53
ZelozelosSockPupCameOn, whats the site?04:53
SockPupCameOnany reasonwhy it does this04:53
SockPupCameOnhttp://www.xtube.com04:53
ABBADONgreezmunkey: Nope.  In fact, it acts just like it does when I try to shut down.04:53
perlsyntaxi know it right in the link how you do it.04:53
irstupidwubuntuOk recently I've tried to isntall Ubuntu on my WIndows 7 laptop and when I try to turn on my laptop it gives me two choices, Win 7 and ubuntu, if I click on Ubuntu it starts something them stops and goes back to the menu of win 7 or ubuntu. If I click on Win 7 it gives me either Win 7 or Win Vista and when I click on 7 it starts me t the back of the menu for unbuntu or win 7 and then when I click on Vista it gives me a system04:53

ImaLamerirstupidwubuntu, so did you install from booting on the disc or through wubi?05:03
ImaLamerirstupidwubuntu, have you changed driver or partitions since your install?05:03
irstupidwubuntuWubi I believe where you download it straight from the net, start it and install it.05:03
irstupidwubuntuAnd then restart and let it finish installing frmo when you install ti.05:04
irstupidwubuntuImaLamer, no I haven't.05:04
ImaLamerirstupidwubuntu, did you finish the install?05:04
ImaLamerirstupidwubuntu, or no boot after the initial reboot?05:04
tibmansorry guys, someone at the door, thank you for all the help05:04
irstupidwubuntuYeah I let it go through and then it restarted again. And then it says chose either Ubuntu or Win 7 to start in when I restarted it.05:04
ImaLamerirstupidwubuntu, sounds like grub is not finding the files to boot it05:05
irstupidwubuntuI click on Unbuntu it gives three things and then goes back to the same menu and doesn't do anything.05:05
irstupidwubuntuThats what I was thinking.05:05
irstupidwubuntuI read something abuot the grub.05:05
nawk_the lucid livecd installer (attempts to but) fails to even load into the "Try without installing" or "install ubuntu now"05:05

ABBADONIf I disable ACPI, does that disable automatic fan control as well?05:17
Stupendoussteveendrien: See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI and hopefully that can help you out05:17
xanguaABBADON: what's you problem with fan¿¿05:17
endrienStupendoussteve , I've installed the drivers from ATI's website05:17
Talon_I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 lts, i have the latest firefox and flash.. any and every flash applet on a website practically kills my CPU and videos like hulu or youtube skip really bad.. any reasons for this? I've installed WinXP on a virtualbox, firefox and flash, and it works 10X better than linux even being in a virtual environment.05:18
ABBADONxangua: I don't think I've heard it come on in a while, and I'm thinking what I originally thought was an X issue might be a cooling issue instead.05:18
ylmfos??05:19
brickysteven_: dont tell me you cant fix a simple driver issue?05:19
bazhang!cn | ylmfos05:19
ubottuylmfos: For Ubuntu help in Chinese 您可以访问中文频道: #ubuntu-cn 或者 #ubuntu-tw  或者 #ubuntu-hk05:19
xanguaABBADON: i got a problem with fan not starting and i solve it upgrading my bios05:19
ylmfos_what is the gFTP? what it can do?05:20
ABBADONxangua: Ok, I think that might be a good idea in my case, then.  Thank you for the suggestion, I'll try it and come back.05:20
endrien<Stupendoussteve> I have those Drives you linked to installed05:20
brickysince I have all my windows inf and my linux drivers, but I can not install05:20
xanguaABBADON: be careful with upgrading the bios05:21
steven_bricky: it depends if there is a driver available or one needs to be made from scratch05:21
Stupendoussteveendrien: Type fglrxinfo and make sure it says something similar to the bit right above troubleshooting in that link05:21
Stupendoussteveendrien: Or just look through troubleshooting05:21
endrienStupendoussteve: It shows that it's working05:21
ylmfos_my windows7 is upgrading to oem05:21
ylmfos_my bios is dell now05:22
ABBADONxangua: Thanks, I will be.  I don't think I've ever upgraded the BIOS on this computer, so I'll do some heavy research before I even attempt it.05:22
brickysteven_: ahh but my 'driver's' are actually compatable but do not install on this OS05:22
bazhangylmfos_, that has nothing to do with ubuntu support05:22
bazhangylmfos_, chat in #ubuntu-offtopic NOT here05:23

tibmanI am having trouble installing ubuntu x64, screen goes black just after install begins05:24
Stupendoussteveendrien: If you haven't configured it to use opengl, it is using direct3d which is emulated and runs horribly, look through that whole page and it should help you out05:24
brickysteven_: they worked on windows linux install (i believe its called wabi)05:24
breakupdancerHello, how do I get 10.04 to recognize the built in motion eye webcam on my laptop?05:24

tensa_zangetsubricky: windows doesn't do a live boot. you can get xp and 7 to boot from usb for installing05:27

tim_Just installed 10.04 (32-bit) on my new i7 Asus laptop in a dual boot configuration with Win 7. Since I have 4GB RAM, and don't plan on any heavy lifting in Ubuntu, I chose not to create a swap partition. But I'm having trouble booting into Ubuntu. It only works every other try. I'm suspecting GRUB(2). Anyone have any ideas on what it might be?06:27
abhi_navintmed, there are iso mount softwares search them in software center06:27
intmedabhi_nav: i used furius iso mount. it mounts the iso. and the drive is accessible from the nautilus. but cannot add it to the synaptic.06:28
a3istFor me, this line works:  "sudo ufw allow from 192.168.0.0/24 to any port 5353" to enable mdns on the lan, but it doesn't work with the service name, like in "sudo ufw allow mdns from 192.168.0.0/24".  Its a minor annoyance but if there's some simple syntax I'm missing for restricting a service to certain clients, I'm missing it.06:29

nawk_Shaun, "live" distros meaning "LIVECD"?06:50
corpsiclehey whats a good audio mixer ? i think ive managed to get the soundcard working, but theres no sound so i guess the volume is 0%06:50
Chamillionnawk a distro is a CD06:50
shaunonawk_: usually yeah.  I think it's more towards solving the problem of having a read-only root, but cd/dvd is where you'll usually see it06:50
sweetpinawk_: from the package info: 'Run a "live" preinstalled system from read-only media'06:51
ChamillionI wish I could keep Ubuntu06:51

newboon2age_corpsicle: I guess you could call the default audio mixer is KMix.  At least that's the mixer that the sound is controlled by in Kubuntu06:56

shaunoloopidity: easiest way would be to give names to the addresses in /etc/hosts.  virtual hosts depend on the browser sending it a hostname, rather than an address07:01
cellofellowXeon3D: well, they've been there since day 1 and I've done many updatedb's since then, you'd think they'd be in there.07:01
loopidityshauno i have given them names, but e.g typing mysite1 would be useless as I dont have a domain name yet, right?07:02
robertzaccourwhats opengl mean?07:02
shaunoloopidity: the name doesn't have to be real, as long as the virtualhost settings in apache agree with the names you've given them locally07:02
cellofellowoh, that might explain it. The Nimbus fonts are Type1, not TrueType.07:03

nawk_newboon2age_, are you aware of the problem I'm experiencing or did yo just read that up?07:29
IConrad01But when I execute chkconfig --list smbd, I get all set to "off" and when I execute chkconfig smbd, it says it's off.07:29

Filthpighi all! I'm trying to build wine from source ('cus I need to add a patch) on a 64-bit system. However, the config complains about needing 32-bit development files for X, and I can't find them in the repo. Any idea what that pkg is called?07:30
indusFilthpig, best resource is #winehq07:30
indusFilthpig, but regarding package name maybe here is good too07:30
Filthpigindus, yeah I just thought I'd ask here since the wine devs often get upset with distro-specific questions :p07:31
indusyeah :D07:31
indusFilthpig, ah a 64 bit sysztem07:32
nawk_newboon2age_, its fine.  what I basically did was, I specified the kernel module (i915 driver) parameter (i915.modeset=1), as suggested in the article, at the "boot:" prompt  (which I got into by pressing <shift> during livecd bootup)07:32
Filthpigyes07:32
abuayyoubhi, can someone tell me what BZR is and how i can install it? I am trying to install something (bzr branch lp:awn-extras) and no idea how to do it ( from launchpad)07:32
indusFilthpig, ah iam on a 32 bit now ,dont know07:32
indusFilthpig, have 64 at home07:32
Jordan_Unawk_: Ok, to boot from the LiveCD with the options suggested in that link press any key when the CD first starts booting, and select English and you'll get to this screen: http://jordanu.dyndns.org/tmp/screen1.png07:32
Filthpigokay, I just got some reply at winehq telling me to ask at wine-dev :p07:33
indusFilthpig, i found a link07:33
newboon2age_nawk_: and you followed up by editing /etc/default/grub and then running the update-grub command (or is that grub-update?)07:33
Aethnenoookaay trackpad still not working right07:33
Jordan_Unawk_: Or have you already managed to get the LiveCD to boot?07:33
indusFilthpig, btw, there is also a 64 bit wine available07:33
nawk_Jordan_U, yep :-)07:34
Filthpigindus but I need to build from source07:34

indusFilthpig, i know buyt you can build a 64 bit wine too it seems :D07:34
IConrad01Okay -- nobody took that question.  I'll try this one instead -- I'm trying to get my Samba shares to actually work.  I can, from any machine, see the directories on my machine.  However, **EVEN FROM THE SAME MACHINE** -- they will not open.  And the error is a generic "Failed to open Windows share"07:34

Filthpigah, nice07:34
Filthpighm07:34
Filthpiganyway I've got this far so I'll just do it the hard way :p07:34
Jordan_Unawk_: Ok, once it's installed you'll need to follow the instructions to actually boot the installed system, as unfortunately that change won't persist to the installed system.07:35
Jordan_Unawk_: The instructions in your link that is.07:35
IConrad01Anyone?07:35
Filthpigheehaw! 275 MBs of extra files. Yummy.07:36
indusFilthpig, are you sure you need 32 bit X devel files?07:36
nawk_newboon2age_, I did manage to load the live distro (Ubuntu LiveCD). could you paste me the link where you found others saying i915.modeset=0 works better than i915.modeset=1?07:36
newboon2age_nawk_: yes, as Jordan_U is saying the change is not persistent until doing as i typed in my previous note.07:36
nawk_currently I'm using i915.modeset=1 as suggested in the original article07:36
IConrad01I'm trying to get my Samba shares to actually work.  I can, from any machine, see the directories on my machine.  However, **EVEN FROM THE SAME MACHINE** -- they will not open.  And the error is a generic "Failed to open Windows share".  This is after a full apt-get purge of all samba-related packages.07:37
nawk_newboon2age_, Jordan_U thank you my fellow Ubuntupians :-)07:37
newboon2age_nawk_: i heard it second hand and it worked on my system.  However as i mentioned, your mileage may vary and i just wanted you to be aware of that.  Someone said that some kernels worked better with it turned off (modset=0)07:37
Jordan_Unawk_: You're welcome.07:38
indusFilthpig, good luck'07:38
Filthpigindus, yes, the config was very clear on that. However, I just learned that a simple "apt-get build-dep wine1.2" fetches everything I need (and probably more) to build :)07:38
indusFilthpig, yea taht link is a good read07:38

tim_So I'm having some troubles with a dual boot system, I'm suspecting Grub(2) since Ubuntu 10.04 only boots every other time I tell it to, the other times it just hangs..07:39
newboon2age_IConrad01: i don't know anything about samba, but i do see there's a #samba channel... hope that would help..07:40
Jordan_Utim_: Hangs where? Is there any error/output?07:40
IConrad01newboon2age_: Maybe it will, considering I've asked twice in this channel and gotten zero response. :-/07:41
IConrad01Aside from yourself, that is.07:41
nawk_newboon2age_, oh... so you did hear about this from before.  anyways I'll try both before I settle on which one to go with :-)07:41
andrew_/server 83.170.84.11/07:42
newboon2age_nawk_: certainly.  I just struggled through a difficult problem where after an dist-upgrade was dumped to Grub2 Recovery Interface.  I only solved it w/ LOTs of help from people here and in #ubuntu-beginners.  That's where i heard about modeset=007:42
tim_Aethnen: Yeah I hear you there, I was a little disappointed not to see a 'trackpad' option under preferences when installed on either of the laptops I put it on.07:42
IConrad01Really?  Not one single person is willing to try?07:43
newboon2age_IConrad01: well samba is a little more specialized knowledge.  I expect i'll learn it at some point, but i haven't got there yet and probably lots others here are like me.07:43
tim_Jordan_U:No, just a blank screen, cant alt+F1 or anything, I have to hard shut down (power for 10sec) and then it boots just fine.07:43
IConrad01newboon2age_: This is the default install, though.07:44
bossneed help with mounting a windows share, before i mount it the permission are drwxrwxrwx but after i mount it becomes dr-----rwt , what can i do ?07:44
IConrad01And I've been using Ubuntu for a little over three years now.07:44
newboon2age_IConrad01: default install of Ubuntu, or Ubuntu Server?07:44
IConrad01newboon2age_: Ubuntu.  But it's Samba I'm talking about.07:44
IConrad01I just did a total apt-get purge of all files related to samba, reinstalled them, and I'm still getting the exact same error.07:45
IConrad01I can see the directories from any machine... but not even from the machine itself, can I actualy *enter* the directories.07:45
sweetpiIConrad01: check the permissions of the directories07:45
IConrad01actually *07:45
newboon2age_IConrad01: yes, but i bet most people don't ever get in there and mess with Samba.  I haven't yet.  Sorry i'm w/o info re: Samba.07:45
IConrad01sweetpi: They're set to anonymous access.07:45
Jordan_Utim_: Try holding shift during boot and choosing recovery mode (just because that option has "quiet" and "splash" disabled, you can also just edit the default entry to remove those)07:45

However, when I boot into the new kernel my touchpad and keyboard are not working anymore (this is Dell Latitude d630 laptop).

newboon2age_abuayyoub: i'm not familiar with  nzbget.  I've been searching the help.ubuntu.com site for more SSH help, but didn't find something immediately. I think the Launchpad process of providing SSH key actually provided some documentation.08:01
KB1JWQindus: Not quite on the oracle front.  Very much so on the #mysql front.08:01
KB1JWQBut yeah, I deal with Oracle support quite a bit (we're a sun shop)08:01

Aethnenso, for some reason i don't have permission in my own home directory ... how to fix?08:02
indusAethnen, how can you tell08:02
steeriohey08:03
indusAethnen, cant you write to some directory or to all08:03
newboon2age_Artificial: i don't know the answer, but i do see there is a #mysql channel that may help...08:03
Aethnenwell, it says, chown: changing ownership of '/home/owner/.kde': Permission denied and that kind of thing08:03
KB1JWQArtificial: Ask your question in #mysql :-)08:04
indusAethnen, are you logged in ?08:04
Aethnenyes I am logged in08:04
steeriodoes anybody have any tips why the built-in cam could fail on an eeepc? modules are loaded, can see it in dmesg, apps cannot see it as a device. someone hinted it could be an x server/driver issue somehow.08:04
Aethnenthere is only the one user and that's "owner"08:04
steeriosame on karmic and lucid, btw (not the netbook remix)08:04
Aethnenthis is like Hour 7 of my linux install08:05
indusAethnen, when you say , the message is displayed , what happens after that08:05
Aethnenindus what happens? do you mean like it goes back to the thingy like owner@owner-laptop:~$08:06
newboon2age_abuayyoub: do you have a launchpad account?  If so, if you go there and open the thingy for giving your SSH key and look at the links there it may provide some documentation that could help you.08:06
indusAethnen, did you try changing any permissions before ?08:06
indusAethnen, so no display ?08:06
Aethnenindus not sure what you're talking about08:06
abuayyoubnewboon2age_,  yea, im setting it up now. Thanks man :)08:06
indusAethnen, iam asking if you have any problems using the system except the error message08:07
Aethnenindus everything seemed to be working right until I went to install a kde program and it couldn't install08:07
indusAethnen, and then what happened08:08
Aethnenindus other than actually a bunch of other things failed to install08:08
indusAethnen, so its a problem with installation ?08:08
indusAethnen, you arent quite clear on what exactly the problem is08:08
Aethnenindus here's what it looks like:  owner@owner-laptop:~$ kbuildsycoca4 --noincremental08:09

newboon2age_Aethnen: you probably know that normally you don't set a root password for Ubuntu, right?  and you didn't set a separate password for root right?08:09

aurilliance_My ubuntu desktop isn't starting up, I think grub is corrupted, or my fstab settings mght be wrong, my boot info is at http://pastebin.com/ZZPWxc6e can anyone help?08:32
abhi_navyes thats why you are not intelilgent thats why08:32
abhi_navJordan_U, aurilliance_ ohh sorry its aurilliance_ issue08:32
abhi_navmine was different08:32
aurilliance_oh,08:32
aurilliance_damn08:32
=== aurilliance_ is now known as aurilliance
masterkorpkent\n, do u ban the abuser08:33
indusaurilliance_, here is 1 tip, try changing HDD boot device in bios08:33
indusaurilliance, you have multiple grub installs probably and you want to let bios know whihch HDD to boot first08:33
sweetpiabhi_nav: (attempt to remember your question before flood) couldnt you have your friend boot from live ubuntu cd.. enable vnc, then connect and install from that?08:34
kent\nthe retarded thing is they were using the 'ops' call...... so it was going to invoke a ban ...08:34
ikoniakent\n: stop now08:34
abhi_navsweetpi, for that i need to go to his home.08:35
Jordan_Uabhi_nav: If he knows how to enable VNC in windows you can use Wubi.08:35
abhi_navJordan_U, i need to install ubuntu in his pc. not wubi08:35
sweetpiabhi_nav: i dont see why, maybe you should explain what your situation is08:36
Jordan_Uabhi_nav: Wubi is Ubuntu.08:36
olskolirccan we block channel spams?08:36
abhi_navsweetpi, Jordan_U situation is only the thing that he told me to install ubuntu in his pc. so i need to go to his home for this. i have cd. so just triyng to see if i can save my time of going his home by remote installing ubuntu in his pc from my cd08:37
indusabhi_nav, well i think wubi might work if he installs vnc08:37
indusabhi_nav, wubi lets you install ubuntu inside windows08:37
indusabhi_nav, but frankly i dont know if anyone has ever done this08:38
abhi_navindus, sweetpi Jordan_U but wubi wll install inside windows naa? i dont want inside windows. we need fresh clearn new installation. DUAL BOOT08:38
abhi_navwe want dual boot08:38
indusabhi_nav, fresh install seems really difficult buddy , the system needs to boot from cd and no way his system is going to read your cd ,08:38
abhi_navyou assume that there is no os in his pc, then tell me the solution indus ?08:39
abhi_navindus, ok08:39
sweetpiabhi_nav: if he had a cd, then yes you should be able to vnc in and install08:39
abhi_navsweetpi, cd is with me right now.08:39
indusabhi_nav, i dont know a solution, wubi might work because its installing like software to D08:39
indusOR c DRIVE08:39
abhi_navindus, but for wubi there should be first win installed naa?08:39
abhi_navindus, assume that no os08:40
indusabhi_nav, of course08:40
aceabhi go to his house and install it08:40
abhi_navindus, hmm08:40
abhi_navace, thank you !!!! :D08:40
indusabhi_nav, seems possible but not easy08:40
kent\nikonia: can you clarify what you're asking me to stop? ( me assumes offtopicness, but wants to be sure )08:40
abhi_navindus, ok08:40
indusabhi_nav, easier to go to his house probably08:40
ikoniakent\n: discussing the spamming, and using phrases such as retarded08:41
abhi_navindus, :D08:41
kent\n*nods*. k.08:41
ikoniakent\n: thanks08:41
sweetpiabhi_nav: you could have him pxe boot a live ubuntu and install it that way(no i wont help, sry) :)08:41
indusabhi_nav, can his system boot from a network08:41
abhi_navsweetpi, ok thank for your time. i can know by reading docs.08:41
abhi_navindus, his pc is have broadband connection.08:41
indusfrankly i dont recommend it08:41
abhi_navindus, why?08:42
abhi_navindus, any security issue?08:42
indusabhi_nav, because its not documented http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=3728808:42
indusabhi_nav, technical issues08:42
abhi_navindus, hmm ok08:42
Jordan_Uabhi_nav: You can also make an OEM install CD, which would basically boot and install without any user interaction.08:43
abhi_navJordan_U, ok will see that option too. thanks08:43
FlannelJordan_U, abhi_nav: That's not entirely accurate08:43
abhi_navFlannel, means?08:43
Flannelabhi_nav: Sorry, trying to read scrollback quickly.  This is still about trying to install on a friends PC, right?08:44
indusabhi_nav, one way is to make your friend boot the iso from his HDD08:44
abhi_navFlannel, yes08:44
abhi_navindus, cd is with me. any other than remote installation i have to go to his home. no other option08:45
Flannelabhi_nav: Honestly, the easiest way is to either walk him through burning a CD and the install process (installation is a whopping eight or so questions) or to take the CD there and do it yourself08:45
abhi_navFlannel, yah now planning for that only. going his home. :)08:45
indusYES that is the best advice08:46
indusso he learns how to install also08:46
Flannelabhi_nav, Jordan_U: OEM asks you only approximaely half of those eight, but they're the four "hard" ones (partitioning, etc, etc) and it saves the easy ones for later, which doesn't help you here unfortunately.08:46
Jordan_UFlannel: I thought that you could preseed everything and make a non-interactive install CD, but I've never done it myself (I admit the suggestion was overkill for this situation, just wondering what was inaccurate).08:46
abhi_navindus, yah sure08:46
Ziaeon_band the fucking bot already :|08:47
Ziaeon_ban*08:47
abhi_navFlannel, ok actually never tried oem install.08:47
FlannelZiaeon_: Please mind your language.  And the spammer is already taken care of, thanks.08:47
Ziaeon_oh, sorry, 4am08:47
Ziaeon_cranky08:47
FlannelJordan_U: You can make unattended installs, but generally they require some boot CD (or PXE or whatnot) on the system that'll be installed.  You'll also need to specify HD sizing and stuff (for partitioning), and it quickly becomes more complicated for a single machine than sneakerneting it over and doing it manually for a single machine08:48

bobthemilkmanFor example, typing "LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$HOME/usr/local/lib ./execute.sh" works just fine. However typing just ./execute.sh, and having "LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$HOME/usr/local/lib" near the start of the file doesn't work.08:50

joshmuffinright now09:10
joshmuffinTheaxiom, have you tried using "update-grub" command09:11
Theaxiomjoshmuffin, I want to add windows to my grub, but I installed ubuntu on an old windows partion which contained the windows bootloader, so I don't have any bootloader or anything in the MBR for windows. I need to manually enter the info into grub.09:12
Theaxiomjoshmuffin, and I have no idea where to start now09:12
joshmuffin!grub2 | Theaxiom09:12
ubottuTheaxiom: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub209:12
Theaxiomjoshmuffin, yes, I am looking at that page, and it's not helping, I am used to the old grub where you just enter in some lines, and everything works09:12
joshmuffinTheaxiom, are you booted into the ubuntu partition atm?09:13
Jordan_UTheaxiom: Why do you think you need to manually enter anything? "sudo update-grub" should add a windows entry automatically.09:13
ghosTM55joshmuffin: okay , i have no gnome-panel display right now , it works just before i rebooted my laptop , i'm running ubuntu 10.04 amd64 , i just can't get gnome-panel work09:13
TheaxiomJordan_U, I did sudo update-grub2, should I do update-grub?09:13
Theaxiomjoshmuffin, yeah I am in ubuntu right now09:14
Jordan_UTheaxiom: update-grub2 just runs update-grub09:14
Jordan_UTheaxiom: Does "sudo os-prober" output anything?09:14
mekosghosTM55: you have no panels on the desktop at all?09:14
joshmuffinghosTM55, alt+f2, and type gnome-panel09:14
TheaxiomJordan_U, nope09:14
Jordan_UTheaxiom: Then either your windows partition can't be mounted for some reason, or it's unbootable.09:15
TheaxiomJordan_U, I told you that the bootloader was on the partition that ubuntu now occupies, so it got overwritten09:15
TheaxiomJordan_U, it has no bootloader, or anything, it is completely disambiguated09:15
Jordan_UTheaxiom: Then windows is unbootable. Nothing you do with grub will allow you to boot windows without ntldr / BCD09:17
TheaxiomJordan_U, how do I get those into the windows partition?09:17
Jordan_UTheaxiom: I think "fixboot" from a windows install CD (which will also overwrite grub, so you'll need to restore it afterward) but I'm not sure. Try asking in ##windows.09:18
ghosTM55joshmuffin: no response either , when i run gnome-panel in terminal ( i setup the shortcut to open the terminal before and thx god it works at least ) , it returns the error : Cannot register the panel shell: there is already one running.09:18

syekiyes that would be great. Where do i start?10:14

Right now I'm uninstalling everything and next I need to get it down to out of the box like, so I was asking what I should do. Should I use one of the software I seen to erase everything or if I can just format it and it's the same?10:22
syekiok i'm leaving this channel and joining ubuntu-beginners which seemed dead when i joined earlier. I might be able to keep up with the pace there:-(|)10:22
rocket16agam: Type: chmod +x file.extension to make the file executable. And then type: ./file.extension to execute it.10:22
tripelbrocket16, on xchat an uparrow will bring up the last thing you typed. do it again and you get the previous one. (called brings up a history of hour comments)  Wonderful device. So you can use xchat for irc and the other for gtalk10:23
maelstormanyone know a good website that compares laptops for linux?10:23
rocket16tripelb: Well, :) Same thing can be done in Pidgin too, by using Xchat-IRC Plugin, :D10:23

rocket16agam: Did you use cd to move to the directory where the file is stored? You need to use cd to move there.10:24
rocket16agam: Type ls, and see if the file is displayed in the list.10:24
agamyes Iḿ in the right directory10:24
agamI can see it10:24
agamand when I write it is automatically completed using TAB10:25
rocket16agam: I see, then I believe the chmod is not set properly.  Is it made executable?10:25
agamyes it is10:27
BluhBasically will using windows cd to reformat do the same as if I use a software to erase everything on my computer then reinstall windows from the cd?10:27
agamI also tried to creat a c-file to see if there was some problem to execute a file from that folder, but it  works10:28

markitoxsgeirha, would that not be if the whole line matches?10:38

Jordan_UBluh: Unless you're trying to wipe out personal data (like if you plan to give the computer to someone else) there is no reason to "format" beyond what the installer does.10:57
geirhamarkitoxs: That it is. You'd have to update an array of the last 20 lines at all times, then read 20 lines into another array when you find a match ... a bit too complex for a one-liner.10:57
markitoxsgeirha, yeah, thats my plan i think10:57
markitoxsis there anyway to obtain the line number maybe?10:58

markitoxsJordan_U, study a log file, whenever a 503 error appears11:02

Jordan_Umarkitoxs: Ok, then "tail -F /path/to/logfile | grep 503 --before-context=20 --after-context=20"11:04
markitoxserUSUL, its mainly so i can keep an eye on it11:05
Jordan_Umarkitoxs: That also gets the nice side effect that if you're viewing it at the terminal the occurance of "503" will be highlighted in red to make it easier to find.11:06
RudyValenciaOK, I'm developing a business with both retail and foodservice operations. I can't find a point-of-sale system that can do both retail and restaurant sales, and and I don't want to deploy two separate point-of-sale systems to handle the business' transactions. What can I do?11:06
markitoxsJordan_U,whats the difference between -f and -F ?11:06
LinuxsecuredMy server which is I was host my eggdrop was down for sometimes and now its up.How do I make my bot(eggdrop) to join back the network.I need the command.Can any one help?11:06
Jordan_Umarkitoxs: -f follows the file pointer, which will point to the same file even if you move it (to rotate the logs for instace). -F follows the file name.11:07
bullgard4Is there a CLI alternative to the '~$ sudo shutdown now' command to shut down the computer?11:08
Jordan_Umarkitoxs: So if you use -f then the script will stop updating the moment the log rotates.11:08
markitoxsJordan_U, good advice11:08
Slartbullgard4: sudo halt   does the same thing11:08

markitoxsJordan_U, i mean, its just a FYI i dont care11:12
Jordan_Umarkitoxs: Are you piping the output from grep through anything else?11:13
Slartbullgard4: hm.. I always though reboot, halt, poweroff and so on were aliases of some kind to shutdown.. anyways11:13
markitoxsJordan_U, no, not at al11:13

gryllidaHi. "ctl V" always pastes something from the clipboard. text selected from the mouse is always pasted by middle clicking. It works anywhere, but not when trying to copy from openoffice, nomatter it's from the repo or from OOo website. How do I fix it? one user said "copy from OO.o word works on debian Sid, using packages from experimental"12:39
NiglopDr_Willis>  it lets me on the other account, but not this 112:39
gryllida(OOo 3.2, ubuntu 10.04)12:40
Dr_WillisNiglop: That basically tells us you have some sort of gnome setting issue. You can carefully try to reset the gnome settings. but you may lose any imporntant settings/customizations you have.12:40
Lalithaapapa1, You can install "hardinfo" and get the log into a paste.ubuntu.com and show what you have. It will be easy for someone to help you then.12:40

duckslammerphaidros, what is the best way to remove sendmail?  will apt-get remove do the job?13:32
delinquentme... Hmmm ok i officially have no idea what a kernel is13:32
Sargunbobthemilkman, I was looking at that doc earlier13:32
phaidrosduckslammer: actually if you install nullmailer or ssmtp via apt, it should itself realize that you want to replace the mta and therefor ask you if it should delete sendmail ...13:33
icerootdelinquentme: and the best about linux today is that you dont have to know what a kernel is to use gnu/linux :)13:33
miazgatorpanels and network manager are taking very long time to load in Ubuntu 10.04 on my mother's laptop since few weeks, what could happen?13:33
phaidrosdelinquentme: kernel is on little but important software piece in a linux system, it is the core process, managing hardware and other processes (programs). it is only in the back and you graphical environment is totally independent of your kernel version13:34
miazgatorno idea what could cause this13:34
delinquentmehah <- proof right here13:34
icerootmiazgator: what is "very long"?13:34

Jack3I'm trying to change keyboard layouts from US to UK. So I selected UK and added. http://i47.tinypic.com/rtiy9u.gif but my keyboard is still messed up. E.g. my 'p' is an 'x'13:34
delinquentmeahh ok well for my use i just need to know kernel is NOT synonymous w operating system13:34
miazgatorthat's unacceptable :P13:35
icerootdelinquentme: the kernel is called linux. linux is "just" a kernel, ubuntu( gnu/linux) is a distribution, building a software-stack around the kernel13:35
gionnicohello13:35
gionnicois there a way that i can know that a computer in my LAN is using the ubuntu livecd ?13:35
gionnicofor example some nmap fingerprint?13:35
delinquentmeOH13:36
icerootdelinquentme: the kernel is the OS, the rest is a distribution. ubuntu ist not an OS, its a linux-distribution also called gnu/linux13:36
delinquentmeiceroot, *thumbs up * that makes sense13:36
Dr_Willisa live cd system. proberly wont respond to many nmap scans then perhaps to a ping. Theres no se4vices by default going to be scanned13:36
bobthemilkmaniceroot: That is incorrect. the kernel is *not* the OS.13:36
delinquentmethe kernel is like the baseline functionality of the OS13:37
icerootbobthemilkman: i think it will start a flamewar, so lets stop it here13:37
bobthemilkmaniceroot: I think you're wrong. The kernel is *NOT* the OS.13:37
Dr_WillisOS = a house. kernel = the foundation. :)13:37
delinquentmeheh! ok well GENTLEMEN thanks for the comments ... im a more knowledgeable user now13:37
Dr_Willisand IRC = the gutters. :)13:38
delinquentmeLOL13:38
phaidrosduckslammer: one last hint for you: "apt-file search sbin/sendmail" gives you a list of all packages including that file13:38
bobthemilkmanActually, I don't think you're wrong. You are wrong. You should not give out answers that are incorrect, especially if they appear to be correct at first glance, as they are more disruptive than not answering at all. A quick 15 second search for wikipedia for kernel will show on the first line that it is not an operating system.13:38
DarkStar1iceroot: Think of the Kernel as the Engine of the car and the shell of the Car is AKIN to Ubuntu.13:38
phaidrosiceroot: kernel is core of the os, nothing more, nothing less.13:38

Guest97480what?13:41
phaidrosduckslammer: afaik chkconfig is a rpm/redhat world thing.13:41
DarkStar1Jack3: What did you add?13:42
bobthemilkmaniceroot: You can use all the CS terminology you want, but it doesn't change the fact that a kernel is *NOT* an operating system. The kernel is a link between userland and hardware. Nothing more, nothing less. Without a userland in place, there cannot be an operating system, unless you were to compile said operating system directly into the kernel, which would be a dumb idea for various reasons, and why Linux does not do it.13:42

Dr_Willisduckslammer:  ubuntu is slowly moving to the 'upstart' init system. Runlevels are really not used  much.   the default runlevel is 2 (i think) and other then 1 2 6  I think the others dont matter13:47
Dr_Willis!runlevel | duckslammer13:47
ubottuduckslammer: In Ubuntu all runlevels except 0,1 and 6 are by default equal. Also keep in mind that Ubuntu now uses !Upstart instead of System V init so there is normally no /etc/inittab.13:47
Dr_WillisRunlevel 2=3=4=5  same stuff.13:48

suntahi14:45
batata-tnbovv that's an upgrade, an update is software corrections in the same ubuntu version14:45
bovvbatata-tn: yes.... and other software updates, too.14:45
batata-tnyep14:45
scunizibatata-tn: so you want it (a program) to measure the appropriate measurements?14:46

batata-tnscunizi anything that may work, any solution I can put an object near the house to help measuring it, i just need a solution that allow me to take a picture quickly and easily and than do the measurements later14:48

iflemaNeptune123 im thinking follow the recommendation until your comfortable to choose for yourself. 32bit14:49
=== csaba_ is now known as csaba
batata-tnbovv first you have to update your system, than see if you still have that problem see if there is a reported bug about that or report a new bug (see if there is any solution on internet first a workaround)14:49
Neptune123ok ill do that14:49
* batata-tn don't know much about the overheating problem may be someone else may help 14:49
scunizibatata-tn: you might be able to use a cad-cam or architecutal design program.  as long as you know one measurement the program might be able to extrapolate the remaining measurements.14:50
bovvbatata-tn: OK... I'm checking my updates now.14:50
batata-tnNeptune123 i think it depends on your micro-processor architecture14:51
bovvbatata-tn: I'm up to date.14:51
batata-tnscunizi there exists a proprietary software that can do that easily already, but I prefer a free softwere even if it will be commercial too, the one i found is called iphotomeasure14:52

ACameronI seem to have goofed up during my update to 10.04.  If I run "$ dpkg -l "linux-image*" | grep ^ii", I can see newer kernels, but "$ uname -a" tells me I'm still running 2.6.31-14-generic.  How can I upgrade my kernel?14:52

pyropheliaso  want to take it out14:53
suntaACameron, did you sudo apt-get dist-upgrade?14:53
batata-tnbovv I suppose corrections should be in the kernel if I am not wrong, so reboot the computer to boot with the new kernel if it was updated (does ubuntu update kernels? i am more familiar with other linux OSs)14:53
pyropheliabut this system has 45 hard disks, so how to I find out which disk ata9.04 is14:53

danielyeah?14:58

elghscunizi, Well, all streaming I have seen... Why can that be problematic?15:09
scunizielgh: did you enable the restricted drivers? if so which one?15:09
danielI just for sure to know which ports are open in my pc any easy way to do that?.15:09
rubbsdaniel: well you can see if your firewall is turned on by doing : sudo ufw status. If its disabled your ports to that computer are open (the ones that are configured anyway)15:10
rubbsdaniel: if you mean to get out from behind your router you will have to consult the router manual for that.15:11

Lonniebizwhat's the trick to doing this?15:16
rubbsGordon_Gekko: both can be installed15:16
rubbsGordon_Gekko: I had wine installed and PoL worked just fine. in fact it uses the wine packages15:16
danielok rubbs . btw im in my router and opened 660015:16
Gordon_Gekkorubbs, is it gonna make a different C: drive?15:16
scunizielgh: ah.. so you downloaded the driver from nvidia directly.. that driver is quite old.. even the one in the hardware driver manager portion of ubuntu is much newer than that... upgrade your driver.. the latest I think is 196.x.x.x or something like that.15:16
rubbsGordon_Gekko: yes and no. PoL installs things in prefixes so you can make application specific changes without effecting all of your wine programs15:17
=== ericm|ubuntu is now known as ericm-Zzz
Picidaniel: Are you planning on controlling mpd from a computer outside your network? If not, then you shouldn't need to touch your router.15:17
elghscunizi, How do I upgrade that? Sorry for stupid questions. =)15:17
rubbsGordon_Gekko: most of the time it will be accessable through the wine menu, but PoL has it's own menu too15:17
ryuslashscunizi: but then why does it still work when I log in using gdmflexiserver? :S15:18
Gordon_Gekkorubbs, I see. so it is gonna use the same program files folder of wine if the settings are the same15:18

danielhmm btw how can I solve this problem?15:18
rubbsGordon_Gekko: no. it will make a new prefix for every application you install through PoL. but this is desirable15:18
scunizielgh: get the latest driver from nvidia and install it the same way you did the last one.. you have to drop to a tty, shutdown gdm, install driver, restart gdm15:18
elghscunizi, That was a little bit to fast for me... :)15:19
rubbsGordon_Gekko: it makes shortcuts to files that haven't changed on the wine side, but all the program files will be in seperate "C" drives15:19
Gordon_Gekkorubbs, do you think it is better to have only PlayOnLinux or both of them?15:19
rubbsGordon_Gekko: it actually doesn't take up any more room despite the way it sounds, it just organizes it different15:19
scunizielgh: which version of ubuntu are you using?15:19
scunizielgh: what release?15:19
* DarkStar1 is really pissed off with the firefox update15:19
rubbsGordon_Gekko: PoL requires that wine is installed so you have to have both. I would just suggest installing things through play on linux. Think of PlayOnLinux as an enhancement of wine. A skin in a way.15:20
elghscunizi, Ubuntu 10.04.15:20

I typically end up doing a fresh install to fix everything that goes wrong.. it might just be my hardware or some of the mods I make that messes things up... I don't know, but most likely.  so unless your system is 100% vanilla, no extra 3rd party repo's, software etc.. I just don't count on the upgrade going smooth.. that's why I always have a separate 15:26

ryuslashscunizi: but are you talking about a distro upgrade? from 9.10 to 10.04 for example? bacause that worked fine on my other computer, this one is a fresh install with a regular apt-get update && apt-get upgrade gone wrong15:28

bobthemilkmanAlternatively you can use wine. Due toe the proprietary nature of cedega, it has fallen out of grace of its developers, and has not been updated in some time. I think wine is overtaking it in terms of functionality...15:37

ubutomDarkStar1, as I said, that does not have much to do with the fireox update, did you have many firefox extensions installed? could be compatibility issues with them, as for opera, in what way does it misbehave? I would just grab a new version or erase the settings15:37

ThunderBird89then I recommend you scrape the whole disk clean with the Ubuntu installer, repartition it, and after installing ubuntu then win7, edit the GRUB config to include win717:11
gnychisLeif: that's a good question to ask in #bash17:11
ThunderBird89I had winxp on first, so I didn't run into this problem17:11
Leifgnychis, Okay, thanks17:11

ThunderBird89gnychis: I don't actually know for sure. If there's an option not to install a new MBR, it won't.17:13
PiciDarkStar1: Well, it looks like you tried to set sudo (root's) shell to /chsh17:13
ThunderBird89gnychis: BackTrack did it for me, but I was able to restore the GRUB mbr17:13
HtronThere's another command besides 'route' that shows all the routing tables by index, any ideas what it is?17:13
PiciDarkStar1: Try using sudo -s, and then running chsh again.17:13
DarkStar1Pici: It looks like I successfully did change the root shell (no password was required to do that btw) but since then I haven't been able to sudo in a terminal17:14

naibedbye17:18
thune3blouaap: if you did a whole disk md5sum, then it means there is an inconsistency between the burn and the iso. If you are doing a per-file md5sum, then maybe a particular file did not match. (which either indicates a burn issue or an issue with the manifest of md5sums used to check.)17:18

Jon--ActionParsnip: If there is no better or best then why tell someone asking for help with VMWare to use Vbox (or just recommend it)17:35

X3im not using lucid18:03
troubledanyone use DVD-RAM here? I am noticing that in ubuntu lucid, when you umount after a large change, it blocks for 2 or 3 seconds only, and then continues to sync in the background. iirc, isn't umount supposed to block until a full sync? otherwise with RAM you are risking an eject that doesnt get a full sync. Any ideas? thanks18:03

usacomputertecActionParsnip first of all I don't know what that does and second I'm not sure how to edit the GRUB to put that in there.18:15

Visualantehello #ubuntu. i need to format my hard drive, can anyone help? nb. i'm at school so no admin access, we seem to have fdisk if that helps18:16
ActionParsnipusacomputertec: grub uses /etc/default/grub   to specify the options, you set them in the quotes with: splash quiet     you will then need to save the new file and run: sudo update-grub18:16
usacomputertecActionParsnip also check this link: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=932924318:16

ActionParsnipusacomputertec: why buy a macbook to put linux on? They are very low bang-for-buck and at the same price you can get a faster "normal" pc to then put linux on....18:17

ActionParsnipVisualante: you dont need root, your account just has to be in the admin group (doubtful)18:27
Visualantewell i'm not i'm just a user18:27
X3the options trigger kernel modules18:27
ActionParsnipusacomputertec: they mess with the kernel to make it act differently. I dont know EXACTLY what they do but I know they are good places to start if touchpads and keyboards are messing around18:28
usacomputertecX3 ActionParsnip so you have no idea what will happen? It seems to me the main problem is the driver being used to drive the touchpad18:29
usacomputertecX3 ActionParsnip I think a different driver should be used but I have no idea what one or how to change it.18:29
ActionParsnipusacomputertec: it might make it work, I dont exactly know how the drivers for video cards work with the kernel but I know how to go about fixing those too18:30

unopoxymoron, right, these .mo files seem to be common with the PPA packages you've got installed (PPA packages need to be used with great care - not all of them are upto standard) .. it might be safe to delete them after backing them up thereby allowing kdevelop to overwrite them.19:57

Sam_Fishershadyabhi, you want him to run that in terminal?19:57
alex__you'll also be limited by your display19:57

LordNeoubuntujenkins: enabling it only makes the windows get the focus once i pass the mouse over. If i have Firefox maximized and open up a terminal or whatsoever, it opens in foreground20:02
oxymoronunop: It worked ;) I remember that force-overwrite command now :P20:02
mrwizeguy1983is there a support room for linux-firmware?20:02
PiRoMaNoSam_Fisher, the 320 has Vista. Which I took out of another computer. The 640 was put in and has Win7 on one partittion.20:02
Sam_FisherPiRoMaNo, I can't believe I didn't ask this. Go to PLACES in the top menu. Scroll down and open the drive20:03
unopoxymoron, well, you should use the --force* options sparingly but they're all documented in the dpkg manpage.20:03
perlmonkey2the Glib issue appeared to correct itself, but my ondemand processor freq manager seems stuck at slowest now.20:03
PiRoMaNoSam_Fisher, doesn't show up...lol20:03
shadyabhiSam_Fisher: In windows, if in BIOS, SATA is not configured as IDE, drives are not detected while installation sometimes... Can it be possible with ubuntu too?20:03
ubuntujenkinsLordNeo: so you want programs to open behind the one that is currently focused?20:03
PiRoMaNoshadyabhi, I don't think so. My Laptop HD is SATA and it installed perfectly fine on here20:04
oxymoronunop: Yes, I usually dont use them, only when a stupid programmer couldnt fix the dependecies proerly or making apt working as it should.20:04
LordNeoubuntujenkins: just the opposite, i like the new windows to get on top, but today that behaviour changed and now every new windows opens in foreground20:04
Sam_FisherPiRoMaNo, man this is a tuff one. HAve you been to BIOS lately? It's a mythical planet that controls our Universe20:05
unopoxymoron, well, it's your fault actually :)  for using PPAs that break the dpkg database20:05

jonashi guys, do you have experience with the UEC on 10.4?20:05

jonasubuntu enterprise cloud20:06
Rehanok20:06
Sam_FisherPiRoMaNo, you are being difficult on purpose right?20:06

moeubuntuthis is an el cheapo ARM notebook20:08
moeubuntu300mhz, 128mb ram, 2GB flashdisk20:08
unopoxymoron, well, the PPAs provided more than they should have -- and dpkg is always careful to never overwrite files -- and that got you in a tangle.  If you say that then yes all PPAs should be out of bounds, but then you suffer from lack of provision for exotic/new packages20:08

festerjester@erUSUL ok, thnx again20:41
erUSULfesterjester: again; no problem :)20:41
SlartBen64:  I think adobe has removed the 64bit flash for now20:41
Ben64why? I needs it20:41
SlartBen64: there were some security concerns20:41
dragon4cedr4x: try this:   https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingSoundProblems20:41
abuayyoubdragon4ce,  I think i had the ATI driver at one time but I think I disabled it. lemme check20:42
dr4xthx i'll try and tell you dragon4ce20:42
Ben64:|20:42
SlartBen64: and I suppose they didn't want to spend time and money to fix it quickly.. so they removed it until it's fixed20:42
ZykoticK9Slart, Ben64 actually i'm not sure the reason was "security" but Adobe says they are still "committed" to 64bit20:42

Ben64xangua: npwrapper? no thx20:43
abuayyoubdragon4ce,  it's disabled. Im using the free drivers now. Shoud I enable the properity ones?20:43
ZykoticK9Slart, Ben64 lets just hope it doesn't become vapourware20:43
variableI managed to get wireless drivers working my clicking the "Yes, I really do want my computer to work button" (aka Allow Restricted Drivers). Now I could see all the wireless networks in my area but I can't connect to any of them. My own network, has a 40bit WEP key (yes - I know it sucks). When I connect to it Ubuntu realizes that I need a key and prompts me for one. However it never actually connects to the network. Any idea on how20:43
dragon4ceabuayyoub: yes, that should work ;)20:43
Ben64would have been nice if the site said "oh hey you're on 64bit, and we don't do that, so you're SOL"20:44
xanguaBen64: well if youwant to use an outdated  with security issues version of flash for 64 bits use this ppa https://launchpad.net/~sevenmachines/%2Barchive/flash20:44
abuayyoubdragon4ce,  come to think of it, I disabled it because I wanted to check out gnome-shell. But everything seemed to be working finde since then so i just left it off.20:45
kaddiHi, I'm wondering which displaymanagers have officially supported ubuntuspinoffs? I know of KDE, Gnome and Xfce, but are there any others? Are there other display managers that are known to run on ubuntu but don't have their own distros/their own updated packages?20:45
ZykoticK9Ben64, i just use the 32bit version from repo on my 64bit systems.  it's fine, except for the possible clicking not working by default, but that's fixable20:45
Ben64ZykoticK9: the npwrapper system is so screwed up, makes flash insanely slow20:46
Neko_anyone know the correct way to make any echo or output messages from rc.local hit the boot terminal? currently everything I do on that script is completely silent20:46
ZykoticK9Ben64, i certainly don't experience "insanely slow" flash on my system.  Well, without the 64bit version right now, you might be forced to 32bit.  Best of luck man.20:47
dragon4ceabuayyoub: did you do anything to make it run so slow then?20:47
^cheekyhi, higher the resistance .. then higher the power dissipation will be .. because p = v*I and if i^^ then power ^^20:47
^cheekyam i wrong ..20:48
abuayyoubdragon4ce, i dont think so. Unless i installed some bad software or somethig... where can i find error logs from my last shutdown?20:48

electric32so how can i burn the iso onto the usb?21:20
matrixa1Kuba, make sure the live session is from a CD though :P21:20
matrixa1just to be sure21:20
ZykoticK9electric32, with windows - i don't think it will work!21:20
stevePHPelectric..what system are you using to burn the iso?21:20
electric32vista21:20
abuayyoubZykoticK9,  but it's been running fine with compiz for months.21:21
stevePHPfollow the instruction on the ubuntu site. They're pretty straightforward to burn to usb.21:21

PorkyHello everyone21:22
sjmkleanchap:  If I remember correctly, you just need to choose the regular gnome session at the login screen.21:23
ZykoticK9electric32, stevePHP there is more to creating a bootable usb device then simply copying an ISO onto it!  I don't think Vista/7 are USB bootable like linux is (i could be wrong it's been years since i used MS)21:23

icerootabuayyoub: but io-error is not good and may be the reason for the problems21:36
guntbertnishttal: why?21:36

nishttalguntbert, it doesnt let me because i dont have permission21:36
balintxthanks in help ^^21:36
erUSULabuayyoub: UNC --> Uncorrectable error - often due to bad sectors on the disk21:36
nishttali then have to gedit from terminal21:36

sjmScunizi, from a quick search there is this one: http://symbolik.wordpress.com/2009/04/16/landscaping-with-inkscape/21:36
abuayyoubiceroot,  is there some prog i can do a system scan? track down these problems?21:36
nishttalthis is annoying21:36
IdleOnenishttal: alt+f2 then type gksudo gedit /path/to/file that will let you edit the file with sudo privs21:37

abuayyoubiceroot, erUSUL, if need be, is there a way I can restore my system yet keep my prefrences? I mean I spent a wholel ot of time tweaking my system to how i like it. I have a complete backup of my /etc/ and my /home folders you think maybe i should just do a clean install? if I do would I be able to save all my settings/configurations/etc?21:41
guntbertnishttal: you can: type sudo :-)21:41

guntbert!noroot | nishttal21:42
ubottunishttal: We do not support having a root password set. See !root and !wfm for more information.21:42
tenochslbdim3000, i wish i could understand but my knowledge of ubuntu is very reduced21:43
mneptokemma: why not buy one with Ubuntu pre-installed?21:43
bstarakeven the ping command doesnt work21:43
icerootemma: eeepc is working great with linux/ubuntu21:43
dim3000tenochslb: one sec21:43
sjmemma: I use an asus 1005ha that works fine.21:43
emmaiceroot, mneptok can you find those in offline stores? I want to buy it like this afternooon.21:43
guntbertnishttal: when regularly working as root you *will* make some bad mistake21:43
bstarakI am connected to my network but internet wont work i dont know why21:43
abuayyoubiceroot, i used backintime to back it up... it should be able to replace eeverything no?21:43
mneptokemma: buy from System76 and expedite shipping.21:43
IdleOneemma: bring a live cd with you and test at the store.21:43
icerootemma: that is not part of this channel21:43
Slartnishttal: this channel doesn't support logging in as root.. or any of the other "work-arounds".. it's not just peoples opinin.. it's a policy of this channel.. you'll just get yourself kicked out of here if you keep nagging about it21:43
nishttalguntbert, thats why I dont want to21:44
icerootabuayyoub: dont know, my backup-tool is called rsync21:44
abuayyoubyou prefer rsync? iceroot21:44
nishttalguntbert, but having to start gedit impacts productivity not to mention the annoyance21:44
bstarakanyone heard of my issue? :)21:44
icerootIdleOne: have fun with puttig a live-cd into a netbook :)21:44
fatiusVroomfondle, dim3000: perfect! thanks!21:44

PigeonClusterUnholyMeecrob, now, that's not 100% sure, but maybe 85% sure22:02

sjmand in route -n, what is the "Gateway" in the line that has "Destination" of 0.0.0.022:04
PigeonClusterUnholyMeecrob, on the other hand, there is a chance (a small one) that ubuntu has that driver available in the repositories.22:05
bstaraksjm, is it possible to have a proxy blocking eveerything?22:05
UnholyMeecrobWhere can I see if ubuntu has that driver?22:05
PigeonClusterUnholyMeecrob, synaptic package manager. search for "usb audio". however i just did - it doesn't.22:05

xangua^paradox^: how did you update fx¿¿ why not use lucid lynx¿¿22:06
UnholyMeecrobAh ok...22:06
sjmbstarak, on the computer you are now at, is it plugged into the same router that you are connecting to wirelessly?22:06
UnholyMeecrobSo I kind off have to create a driver or something?22:06
^paradox^xangua: i got the updates thru update manager. they were just there for me today22:06
bstaraksjm, yes the same one22:07
bstaraksjm, both computers are connected wirelessly22:07
PigeonClusterUnholyMeecrob, no, you don't have to create it, but you do have to build it from the source code. which can be a freaking pain in the butt.22:07

I'm not sure how to begin troubleshooting this. It may be the result of upgrading the kernel or it may be the result of uninstalling something I should not have uninstalled that didn't manifest until now because I hadn't rebooted until changing the kernel.23:16

ColMustrdI upgraded the kernel earlier today (and maybe a few other packages that were part of the "aptitude full-upgrade" I did). The first problem I had was that when I typed reboot, the machine would not reboot. I would wait and wait and it wouldn't reboot. I tried shutdown -h now to shut it down and that didn't work either. eventually I just gave up and waited till I got home to figure out what was wrong. When I got here the machine had reboot23:44
ColMustrded but had no network connection. I've tried rebooting and manually bringing the network but what is happening is that it is failing to get a DHCPOFFER. Other machines receive their dynamic ip addresses fine, so it's only this one. Any ideas?23:44

larsendtAnyone know what modules it's referring to?23:47
ColMustrdAirgrace, in an attempt to troubleshoot it I tried to assign a static ip myself by editing /etc/network/interfaces and trying to bring it up. It wouldn't complain, but neither could I ping the gateway. I don't count it as a valid test cus Ive never manually added a static ip before so I probably failed to do it properly. But looking at the file, it was obvious nothing had been changed, it was still set to get one through dhcp23:47
Airgracelarsendt: why not just uninstall vlc altogether, and reinstall the stable versions?23:47
