| EGL-Owner|AD7 | Bawn: also when i open any windows | 00:02 |
| EGL-Owner|AD7 | Bawn: i could show you if you knew a sort of teamviewer | 00:03 |

| pondera | is there a way i can scale down the size of the user interface in ubuntu ? | 00:06 |
| sebsebseb | pondera: meaning what exactly? | 00:06 |
| bawn | pondera, it sounds like you need to have a higher resolution | 00:07 |
| darolu | johndee: well the catch is Lucid doesn't use HAL anymore, anyways, press ALT+F2 and type (without quotation marks) "gconf-editor" there navigate to apps-nautilus-preferences and sdisable the "media automount" option | 00:07 |
| pondera | well i can get my resolution higher so i though maybe i could scale down everything else | 00:07 |
| pondera | i cant** | 00:07 |
| pondera | i cant get it anyhigher then 1280x800 | 00:08 |
| bawn | pondera, i can't help you from here, I am no expert at that type of stuff | 00:08 |

| mistermatt | wicd said it couldn't get an IP address. | 00:08 |
| xorwhy | pkill x; pkill y; pkill z does not kill x, y and z | 00:09 |
| mistermatt | so maybe there is another problem, that isn't ubuntu related | 00:09 |
| mistermatt | but it worked on windows 7 | 00:09 |
| BraddersK | darolu: ok then, reboot... here goes nothing! | 00:09 |
| johndee | darolu: I thought so too, but for some reason it is here and running. I just tried killing it, but automount still works. Hence, something else is monitoring devices. In mtab every mounted device has uhelper=udisks mount option to it. Looks like udisks is the one that does it. Not much info on it tho :\ | 00:10 |
| xorwhy | pkill x; pkill y; pkill z does not kill x, y and z. What single line command will kill these three theoretical apps? | 00:11 |
| johndee | MaRk-I: Thing is I don't even see any polkit tools on my system :\ | 00:11 |

| grendal_prime | i need to change the order on this machine. I want it to default to the windows installation (these guys need windows primairly and the ubuntu if being used as a diag system) | 00:12 |
| aeon-ltd | xorwhy: random guess but use && instead of ;? | 00:12 |
| MaRk-I | johndee: it's under System/Administration/Authorizations | 00:13 |
| grendal_prime | i use to edit the menu.lst file and just change the order | 00:13 |
| bawn | thank you all for being the help center of all of ubuntu | 00:13 |
| grendal_prime | now we have to use some gui thing to adjust this? | 00:13 |

| mistermatt | maybe that is it | 00:13 |

| Jordan_U | wildbat: vim and emacs, and I'm sure there are more graphical options as well. | 00:19 |
| Jordan_U | FoolsRun: Hold shift during boot to get the grub menu. | 00:19 |
| FoolsRun | Jordan_U: I'll try that. Since I'm here, any insight into why every _second_ boot, I get the stuck-at-blinking-cursor? | 00:20 |
| johndee | MaRk-I: Okay. Funny thing is there are tons of forum post about how lucid won't automount and not a single working solution on how to disable it. I disable it in gconf, in nautilus's prefs, added hald rule (which is not used anyway) | 00:20 |
| grendal_prime | grrrrrrrrrrrr | 00:21 |
| mistermatt | where did actionturnip go :( | 00:21 |
| pondera | can anyone tell me how to get more (higer) resolutions then whats available by default ? | 00:21 |
| Jordan_U | FoolsRun: Is it consitently every other boot or just about a 50% chance of working or not? | 00:21 |
| grendal_prime | i just need to set the primary boot to the windows chain loader. | 00:21 |

| mgolisch | what did testdisk do wrong? | 00:30 |

| Jordan_U | BraddersK: What did you do with testdisk and what did it report? | 00:32 |

| karmapolis | Hello. I have my Lucid set with a US-International keyboard layout. It works fine everywhere except virt-manager. So when I use it with a kvm virtual machine, my dead keys are *really* dead: they're ignored completely as if they had not been pressed. This kvm virtuam machine is known to work with dead keys in another host, so the issue is either Ubuntu's kvm or Ubuntu's virt-manager. Can anybody help me? | 00:39 |
| mgolisch | ShifftyOneJr: how did you configure yur screens? you cant move them between screens if its seperate x displays | 00:39 |
| slidinghorn | ShifftyOneJr, As far as I'm aware, that's a compiz cube effect...without that enabled, you have to do it by right clicking and selecting "move to workspace" | 00:39 |

| ShifftyOneJr | let me load nvidia settings. | 00:40 |

| soreau | ShifftyOneJr: Sounds like you have setup two separate X screens, in which case you cannot move windows between screens | 00:40 |
| slidinghorn | mistermatt, not the fault of ubuntu/linux -- blame the manufacturers for not supporting all systems and being in M$'s pocket | 00:40 |
| ShifftyOneJr | OKay. How do I need to set them up? | 00:40 |
| mistermatt | I think it might be my router | 00:40 |

| ShifftyOneJr | nvidia current | 00:41 |
| mgolisch | ShifftyOneJr: select the other option, twinview or whatever nvidia calls it or use xorgs xinerama feature | 00:41 |

| bLiNdRaGe | i just installed 9.04 on my asus g73...boot, can't move wireless mouse or keyboard (or trackpad or keyboard attached to laptop) | 00:54 |
| yokobr | dugger5688, i do not want SLI... well, i just wanna one to process graphics, and the other to process physics | 00:54 |
| bLiNdRaGe | booted it up into a virtual machine, still can't move mouse or keyboard | 00:54 |
| Jordan_U | BraddersK: Try mounting /dev/sda5, it's probably the partition you want. | 00:54 |
| bLiNdRaGe | can't really do anything | 00:54 |
| tim_ | hello I am trying to set up file sharing between my Ubuntu 10.04 computer and my roommates Windows 7 computer. I keep running into this dumb wall; when it asks me for the password to access ther windows seven computer I can't ever seem to figure out the password. what am I doing wrong here? I am getting frustrated and can't find any docs out there... | 00:55 |
| Oer | bLiNdRaGe, virtual box ose ? | 00:55 |
| bLiNdRaGe | vmware 6.5.2 | 00:55 |
| BraddersK | Jordan_U: Error mounting: mount: /dev/sda5 already mounted or /media/ebf09d71-c59a-41c7-ab35-715139d48060 busy | 00:55 |
| pedahzur | Simple question, I think, but I just realized I don't know how to do this. If I have a route table with, say two interfaces, the only route that lists an actual gateway address is the default route. How do I discover the gateway for a non-default destination (as it's listed as 0.0.0.0 by route -n)? | 00:55 |
| bLiNdRaGe | ubuntu 10.04 worked, but i had issues with wireless and vmtools so i downgraded to 9.04 | 00:56 |
| bLiNdRaGe | think it's just compat issue with my g73? although that wouldn't explain why it wouldn't work in a vm | 00:56 |
| marks__ | yeah yeah mirc | 00:56 |
| Jordan_U | BraddersK: Ok, look at what's mounted in /media. | 00:56 |
| dugger5688 | yokobr: Then I have no idea. But I'm pretty certain that the Linux Nvidia drivers don't simulate physics. | 00:56 |
| Jordan_U | BraddersK: You probably just need to re-install grub since the partition number changed. | 00:57 |
| WXZ | how do u turn off gnome's screenshot manager? | 00:57 |
| WXZ | and get it to automagically copy to clipboard | 00:57 |
| BraddersK | Jordan_U: Its empty. I tried grub ages ago. I got Error 15. | 00:57 |

| otak | simon: well if the old partition is mounted right and permissions have not changed it's probably beyond me. ubuntu uses drive blkid no,s not just device folders... | 01:38 |
| wildbat | !wifi | jimmieskips, read this. | 01:38 |

| jimmieskips | thanks | 01:38 |
| simon | otak, icheked blkid and fstab and all is right | 01:38 |
| judgen | jimmieskips, this is probably my last post for today, but do an lspci in an terminal an look for the wireless chip. People are more helpful in matters that they peronally have experienced. | 01:38 |
| judgen | if they know the chip, they are better to fix problems. | 01:38 |
| judgen | like in my instance i have a lot of of experience with ralink chips | 01:38 |
| MaRk-I | jimmieskips: if it's a usb device type lsusb | 01:38 |
| judgen | jimmieskips, and if it is an 27*xx or a 28*xx chip from ralink you must blacklist the other driver to get it to work. | 01:38 |

| ImaLamer | hiexpo, love it too, but chatting keeps my hands on the keys of course :/ | 01:47 |
| mgrandi | so if it doesn't use 2x the space, why does baobab report that .encryptfs is using 200 gigs? | 01:48 |
| mgrandi | because it does, and it doesn't say there are any hard/soft links | 01:50 |

| ImaLamer | what about upgrading grub2 in wubi...? | 01:51 |
| mgrandi | h00k, but again i'm saying, look at the screenshot: http://imgur.com/rBpRc.png why does it say that its using the same space as my home folder? | 01:52 |
| ImaLamer | reads "cannot find /boot/grub/menu.lst" | 01:52 |
| mgrandi | or is this baobab freaking out | 01:53 |
| Random832 | ImaLamer: i didn't think you were supposed to use grub in wubi | 01:54 |
| Random832 | doesn't it use the windows bootloader? | 01:54 |
| Guest55606 | my lan port on the back of my mobo doesnt recognize that a cable is in it. the cable is fine. i believe my drivers are fine. any way to tell if its the port thats screwed? | 01:54 |
| ImaLamer | Random832, yeah, but the apt-get upgrade has installed it - it's asking me to create a menu.lst | 01:54 |
| ImaLamer | Guest55606, ping it first | 01:54 |
| no-name- | is it a bad idea to $ mv lost+found .lost+found (to hide it) | 01:55 |
| Random832 | no-name-: yes. | 01:55 |
| Random832 | maybe | 01:55 |
| Random832 | i think fsck will recreate it if it needs to? | 01:56 |
| no-name- | is there a way to hide it without changning the name? | 01:56 |
| mgrandi | no. | 01:56 |
| Random832 | no-name-: why do you want to? | 01:56 |
| Random832 | why are you doing ls in the root directory often enough to care? | 01:56 |
| no-name- | cause i don't like it there lol | 01:56 |
| mgrandi | Random832, it will do it on any ext3 drive | 01:56 |
| mgrandi | so if he has like a external usb drive that uses it, it will be there | 01:56 |
| h00k | mgrandi: I'm not terribly familiar with what the 'mark' folder or what is in there, but that appears to be where most of the space is taken | 01:57 |
| mgrandi | h00k, thats my home folder | 01:57 |
| h00k | mgrandi: dig deeper into that and see what appears so large | 01:58 |
| mgrandi | i know whats in my own home folder | 01:58 |
| mgrandi | im just curious on why .encryptfs is the exact same size as my home folder and has the exact amount of files as my home folder | 01:58 |
| mgrandi | it looks like it has an encrypted version of each file and its doing some sort of weird voodoo magic to make it appear not encrpyted? | 01:59 |

| mrunknown | yell at me too... lol. | 02:05 |
| mgrandi | red2kic, if you look at the man pages there are some commands in there for mirroring. HOWEVER its really a bad thing to do because you are essentially ddosing the website | 02:05 |
| mgrandi | red2kic, if you look at it, there is usually a wait time, set it to 2 seconds or else you might have the server IP ban you for a while for downloading their enitre site | 02:05 |

| ubottu | PerryArmstrong: Canonical's partner repositories provide packages a location for software vendors to publish applications. The repo itself can be added by running this in a !terminal: « sudo add-apt-repository "deb http://archive.canonical.com/ $(lsb_release -sc) partner" » | 02:25 |

| ljsoftnet | what are other visual basic alternative? exept for monodevelop and gambas? | 02:26 |
| loctrice | what's wrong with mono? | 02:26 |
| hoofer | so I have this strange bug, whenever I plug my charger in on my netbook it goes to sleep. ubuntu 10.04 UNR any clues? | 02:26 |
| PerryArmstrong | bazhang; i run that command in terminal.... | 02:26 |
| loctrice | gambas was basic i thought, not visual basic. mono has a vb compiler with it you don't have to use them to use the compiler I don't think | 02:27 |
| PerryArmstrong | bazhang; what next | 02:27 |
| aurilliance | red2kic, sad | 02:28 |
| bazhang | PerryArmstrong, sudo apt-get update then install the packages you want | 02:28 |
| aurilliance | hoofer, what netbook! I used to have the same issue! | 02:28 |
| PerryArmstrong | bazhang; ok thank you very much | 02:28 |
| upgrdman | whenever i make files in /var/www I have to use sudo. is it safe to chown them to the primary user? | 02:28 |
| loctrice | no, make a sim link to a dir in /var/www | 02:29 |
| hoofer | aurilliance: acer aspire one | 02:29 |
| PerryArmstrong | bazhang; do i have to check for any environment and variable settings...as we do for windows?? | 02:29 |
| Dr_Willis | upgrdman: i think the 'proper' way to allow users access to that. is to use 'groups' | 02:29 |
| simon | i reinstalled ubuntu using my old /home.but when i reboot, it use deafult setting of ubuntu | 02:29 |
| aurilliance | PerryArmstrong, printenv | 02:29 |
| Dr_Willis | upgrdman: If you just chown/chmod the files. Its possible apache wont properly access them | 02:29 |
| PerryArmstrong | aurilliance, wats that?? | 02:29 |
| simon | i have my archives but my ubuntu didnt apply the themes os settings | 02:29 |
| aurilliance | PerryArmstrong, open a terminal and type "printenv" | 02:29 |
| bazhang | jimmieskips, I dont see a wireless device in those pastes you provided | 02:30 |
| aurilliance | hoofer, I have a Gigabyte t1028x, are you running Ubuntu Netbook Edition by any chance? | 02:30 |
| upgrdman | Dr_Willis, ok. current the owner and group is root, can i safely chgrp? | 02:30 |
| PerryArmstrong | aurilliance, ok | 02:30 |
| Dr_Willis | upgrdman: If you just chown/chmod the files. Its possible apache wont properly access them | 02:30 |
| hoofer | aurilliance: Yes I am running UNR 10.04 | 02:30 |
| jimmieskips | bazhang i think its the usb paste where it says asus | 02:30 |

| technobowl | hello everybody | 02:31 |
| aurilliance | hoofer, ok, I had that same issue, the problem was that when I pulled out/plugged in my cable, Ubuntu interpreted that as me hitting the susspend button / closing the screen (or something like that). | 02:31 |
| bazhang | 0b05:1786 what does a websearch say about that ID jimmieskips | 02:31 |
| Dr_Willis | "How do i let my users change files in /var/www' gets asked quite often. Im not sure what the 'proper' fix is for it. | 02:31 |
| upgrdman | loctrice, i use ssh to access my home server (no monitor is attached to it...) and I want to be able to copy files to /var/www from my main pc without having to use sudo. ssh'ing as root seems like a bad idea | 02:31 |
| hoofer | aurilliance: yes, thats it. How did you fix it? | 02:31 |
| technobowl | are there any gurus that know how to change public dynamic ip address | 02:31 |
| Dr_Willis | upgrdman: you could ln -s the location to your users home dir some where also. | 02:31 |
| aurilliance | hoofer, if you go to the power settings and make it so that hitting suspend merely dims the screen / goes to screensaver, it stopped turning off the computer when I pulled out the cable | 02:32 |
| technobowl | change ip address | 02:32 |
| Dr_Willis | upgrdman: but still that wont affect teh ownership :) just make scp a little easier to use | 02:32 |
| loctrice | that's what i do, give them a soft link to the files | 02:32 |
| GrazzMan | Question, Trying to access a windows workgroup, saying it can not retrieve share list from server... ?? | 02:32 |

| GrazzMan | Dr_Willis: End goal is to see Upnp servers, would I do that the same way? | 02:34 |
| PerryArmstrong | aurilliance, usually in windows this is compuslory to set the environment so that we can execute the code in a particular directory....is there something like that in ubuntu.... | 02:34 |
| loctrice | anyone hear any dates about the linux steam client? | 02:34 |
| aurilliance | PerryArmstrong, for a batch script? | 02:34 |
| Dr_Willis | GrazzMan: Upnp is handled totally different then samba/smb | 02:34 |
| bazhang | loctrice, try in #ubuntu-offtopic as that is the chat channel NOT here | 02:34 |
| aurilliance | bazhang, are you an op? | 02:35 |
| hiexpo | bazhang, :) | 02:35 |
| loctrice | bazhang; so that is a no? I thought this was a "entry point" I'm pretty new to participating in the community | 02:35 |
| bazhang | aurilliance, what is the issue | 02:35 |
| jimmieskips | bazhang i dont understand the chipset or ifconfig | 02:35 |
| PerryArmstrong | aurilliance, i dont know wats a batch script....this is usually done right after installation.. so that we can compile and execute the java program....is anything like that required here | 02:35 |
| Agu10 | when I suspend from ubuntu, and I try to go back to ubuntu, my laptop turns off | 02:35 |

| DocPlatypus | I'm trying to upgrade a limited-space install from 9.10 to 10.04 and update-manager blew up in the middle of the process | 02:41 |
| DocPlatypus | now, it segfaults on restart | 02:41 |
| MaRk-I | jimmieskips: is the usb device plugged in? | 02:41 |
| jimmieskips | mark-i yes | 02:41 |
| DocPlatypus | how do I do from the command line what update-manager would do in the GUI? | 02:41 |
| DocPlatypus | is it just "apt-get dist-upgrade" or is there more to it? | 02:42 |
| aurilliance | hoofer, one moment, i'll imagebin my settings that seem to work ok? | 02:42 |
| jimmieskips | i can put this into another port | 02:42 |
| DarkStar1 | DocPlatypus: I'm not sure I can help but what do you mean when you say "blew up" | 02:42 |
| bazhang | jimmieskips, could be that it is mis-identifying it as eth1 ; do you see any drivers in system administration hardware drivers? also what does sudo dhclient eth1 return | 02:42 |
| Agu10 | can anyone help me? | 02:42 |
| bastid_raZor | DocPlatypus: apt-get update then apt-get upgrade | 02:42 |

| Agu10 | I just tried s2ram, but it doesn't have my laptop in it's database | 02:44 |

| matthew_ | I know there is documentation but I don't know exactly what to search for...I dual boot 10.04 and win7 and I'd like to access files on my Ubuntu partition from within Windows...can someone point me in the right direction? | 03:04 |
| IdleOne | !samba | matthew_ | 03:04 |
| ubottu | matthew_: Samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT. | 03:04 |
| kliwon | jimmieskips, : that's good idea... :D | 03:04 |
| VladTheImpaled | matthew_, You'l need to setup a Samba server in Ubuntu for Win to access | 03:04 |
| jimmieskips | kliwon any suggestions? | 03:05 |
| jon5001 | hoofer, this is what it says: http://paste.ubuntu.com/458110/ | 03:05 |
| matthew_ | VladTheImpaled...if I were to, say, play music from my Ubuntu partition in Windows, using Samba would there be risk of delay/lag? | 03:06 |
| jimmieskips | bazhang did you happen to see the 2 pages i posted on this device | 03:07 |
| VladTheImpaled | matthew_, the samba server is pretty stable. however my experience with smb as a protocol in general isn't that hopeful | 03:07 |
| bazhang | jimmieskips, from the forums? | 03:07 |
| VladTheImpaled | matthew_, I've had much better results with NFS, but getting a decent NFS client for Windows can be a challenge | 03:07 |
| jimmieskips | bazhang yep | 03:07 |
| bazhang | jimmieskips, seems you need to compile for that | 03:07 |
| matthew_ | ok, thanks VladTheImpaled, IdleOne for the information! | 03:07 |
| aurilliance | If I type "diff .htaccess .htaccess_backup" and get absolutely nothing printed to the terminal (I get an empty prompt again) does that mean the files are identical? | 03:07 |
| IdleOne | matthew_: sure thing | 03:08 |
| MaRk-I | VladTheImpaled: I think his partition is in the same HD or machine, I dont think he needs samba... and I doubt win7 could read an ext3/4 partition? | 03:08 |
| jimmieskips | bazhang i think i should probably scrap that device and get something else | 03:08 |
| bazhang | jimmieskips, atheros and intel are good choices then, even broadcom in a pinch | 03:08 |
| VladTheImpaled | MaRk-I, Yeh, I see what you mean. IE, he won't have both partitions active at the same time | 03:08 |
| kliwon | jimmieskips, : dont have idea yet... | 03:08 |
| aurilliance | MaRk-I, win7 can read ext4/3, sometimes | 03:08 |
| aurilliance | MaRk-I, you have to install a driver though | 03:09 |
| jimmieskips | bazhang will these be plug and play? | 03:09 |
| MaRk-I | aurilliance: thanks, dont worry tho that person left | 03:09 |
| VladTheImpaled | matthew_, so what you really need to do is to mount the Linux partition as a disk drive in Windows7, right? | 03:09 |
| kliwon | jimmieskips, : try these https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessCardsSupported#Wireless%20USB%20Adapters | 03:09 |
| aurilliance | MaRk-I, sure | 03:09 |
| bazhang | jimmieskips, intel yet, the others have well supported drivers | 03:09 |
| aurilliance | If I use diff on 2 files and get nothing printed to the terminal, does that mean they are identical? | 03:09 |
| un214 | yes [unless they differ by null bytes] | 03:10 |
| jimmieskips | thanks alot guys!!! hAVE A GOOD NIGHT | 03:10 |

| VladTheImpaled | DocPlatypus, are you trying to do an upgrade from 9.10 to 10.4? | 03:16 |
| un214 | DocPlatypus: willing to try xforcevesa? | 03:16 |
| DocPlatypus | VladTheImpaled: yes | 03:16 |
| VladTheImpaled | DocPlatypus, its not really a recommended thing | 03:17 |
| VladTheImpaled | DocPlatypus, its typically better to do a fresh install | 03:17 |

| DocPlatypus | VladTheImpaled: that's exactly what I'm trying to avoid | 03:17 |

| jimmieskips | kliwon i was thinking asus usb-n13 from that link you sent me | 03:18 |
| VladTheImpaled | DocPlatypus, you can do that | 03:18 |
| un214 | Shpook, try the alternate cd | 03:18 |
| bazhang | VladTheImpaled, upgrades are fine. fresh installs are merely another option | 03:18 |
| VladTheImpaled | DocPlatypus, Microsoft people also need to be done that | 03:18 |
| VladTheImpaled | bazhang, I'd love to have your faith, but it has worked about 15% of the time for me, and my installs are pretty basic | 03:19 |
| DocPlatypus | just did a 'dpkg --configure -a' and that configured a bunch of stuff the upgrade didn't bother with | 03:19 |
| kliwon | jimmieskips, : maybe you can compare the 1 price 1st... | 03:19 |
| bazhang | VladTheImpaled, please dont say that upgrades are not recommended here | 03:19 |
| Shpook | un214, will do, I'll start the download now. I'm not in a big rush or anything, but it does get aggravating. | 03:19 |
| VladTheImpaled | bazhang, whatever | 03:19 |
| un214 | Shpook, you may also have to try to boot rescue mode or xforcevesa | 03:19 |
| VladTheImpaled | bazhang, I'm just sharing experience. Take a vote on it. I think I'd win | 03:19 |

| VladTheImpaled | bazhang, nice comeback | 03:20 |
| un214 | after a few botched upgrades I now recommend updating sources.list manually and running apt-get update followed by apt-get dist-upgrade | 03:21 |
| Shpook | un214: Awesome. I'll use google from here, I just wanted a shove in the right direction. Thanks a lot, if I have any issues from there, I'll just come back and ask. :D | 03:21 |
| VladTheImpaled | the fact is that although Ubuntu might just upgrade fine, there's no guarantee that the drivers, 3rd party software, etc. will play fair. | 03:21 |
| DocPlatypus | VladTheImpaled: I have next to no third party software | 03:21 |
| VladTheImpaled | Its not a problem isolated to Ubuntu. Windows has had this problem for 20 years | 03:21 |
| VladTheImpaled | DocPlatypus, well I'm no psychic as to your computer issues, but the fact is you are having problems | 03:22 |
| DocPlatypus | VladTheImpaled: part of the reason I dumped Windows. of course Windows by itself is almost useless | 03:22 |
| VladTheImpaled | DocPlatypus, true | 03:22 |

| ejv | Hello, wireless support for Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG [Golan] Network Connection (rev 02) has broken under the recent Ubuntu 10.04 update to vmlinuz-2.6.32-23-generic, how do I make it work? | 03:27 |
| mdg | DocPlatypus: thanks! :0 | 03:27 |
| VladTheImpaled | Styles, what brand of laptop is it? | 03:27 |
| DocPlatypus | usually on Ubuntu you can just plug it in and if it will work, it usually works right away | 03:28 |
| dugger5688 | Yeah, I'm actually surprised now when hardware doesn't work right away /w Ubuntu. | 03:28 |
| pictureaday | How does one enable verbose output during boot? | 03:29 |
| dugger5688 | pictureaday: does ur computer boot to a terminal or graphical login? | 03:30 |
| VladTheImpaled | dugger5688, I think its a wise practice to first check with any vendor for Linux compatibility with any hardware. Their primary focus is typically Windows. I use a lot of screwball hardware devices on servers, etc. such as funky RAID cards, PCI boards, etc. and unless they use a common chipset, its hard to find Linux compatibility | 03:30 |
| VladTheImpaled | dugger5688, but if I stay with the common ones, they work perfectly well (typically better than on other OSs) | 03:30 |
| dugger5688 | ugh, yes RAID cards ARE a pain. | 03:30 |
| pictureaday | @dugger, it doesnt get that far | 03:30 |
| pictureaday | I'm running server edition | 03:31 |
| pictureaday | it hangs on boot | 03:31 |
| VladTheImpaled | dugger5688, I just had to add a PCI eSata card to a server for external drive backups, and I had to go through about 5 cards before I found one compatible with Linux. | 03:31 |
| VladTheImpaled | dugger5688, but it runs like a champ now | 03:31 |

| dugger5688 | Shpook: What OS is?!?! I want to use it! | 03:35 |
| VladTheImpaled | mgolisch, I could only use PCI cards and shopping for them typically ended up with some Chinese provider sending the card from Hong Kong on eBay | 03:35 |
| ejv | doglino: google putty | 03:35 |
| DocPlatypus | Shpook: it's close enough to that for my purposes | 03:35 |
| doglino | ejv: no | 03:35 |
| VladTheImpaled | mgolisch, so the cards were not 'name brand' simply because the major manufacturers weren't selling PCI cards anymore | 03:35 |
| doglino | ejv: not ssh | 03:35 |

| doglino | ejv: thanks | 03:36 |
| VladTheImpaled | mgolisch, If I was using brand new hardware in that server, I could probably have avoided all of it, but the end result is that its working perfectly. Its a 5TB SAN, so it has to be rock solid | 03:36 |
| dugger5688 | Did I miss something, last time I installed windoze I spent days hunting down drivers. | 03:36 |

| FoolsRun | Forgive my asking the same question hours apart, but has anyone seen a situation where a fresh install of Ubuntu onto a RAID array (striped) will boot successfully every other time? On my first and third reboot I only got a blinking cursor, on my second and forth I got the desktop. | 03:48 |
| DocPlatypus | FoolsRun: software or hardware RAID? | 03:49 |
| xangua | osmario: from synaptic, you search them and remove them | 03:50 |
| FoolsRun | DocPlatypus: It's server hardware so I believe it is hardware RAID. I don't have the machine in front of me and didn't check for sure before installing. The Ubuntu installer named a card when choosing the array to install onto. | 03:50 |
| DocPlatypus | FoolsRun: that does seem odd. it could be just coincidence that it's every other time | 03:51 |
| osmario | ok. thanks. I'll try | 03:51 |
| DocPlatypus | I know Windows is terrible about leaving the hardware in some kind of weird state on a warm reboot | 03:51 |
| DocPlatypus | I would like to think most GNU/Linux distributions are better | 03:51 |
| FoolsRun | DocPlatypus: if it is coincidence, what might the problem be? Is there something that might cause intermitent booting? | 03:51 |
| Vin73 | hi I had posed a query yesterday about an issue with reboot after installation of the latest Ubuntu | 03:51 |
| FoolsRun | DocPlatypus: I suppose I can't prove that it's warm/cold because when I get the blinking cursor, I have to shut it all the way down. | 03:52 |
| Vin73 | the reboot hangs....and I was asked to do three checks...check the md5 sum...check the media...check the RAM | 03:52 |
| Vin73 | I have done all the three checks successfully...but still the problem persists...can someone help? | 03:52 |
| FoolsRun | DocPlatypus: I've seen some posts suggesting creating a /boot partition at the top of the array. Worth a shot? | 03:52 |
| DocPlatypus | FoolsRun: yeah you have an issue where warm reboots don't work. your workaround for the moment is "don't do that" | 03:52 |
| DocPlatypus | FoolsRun: maybe. what's your partition structure right now? | 03:53 |
| FoolsRun | Whatever the Ubuntu default "use the whole disk" is. I didn't have time before the end of the day to review it. Too hung up on the boot issues. | 03:53 |
| DocPlatypus | oh my | 03:53 |
| DocPlatypus | ummm... that may well be one big partition | 03:54 |
| DocPlatypus | I've never done it that way | 03:54 |
| DocPlatypus | I always make separate /usr /var and /home and usually /tmp | 03:54 |
| FoolsRun | Could that theoretically cause boot issues like this one? | 03:54 |
| Vin73 | hello.... | 03:54 |
| DocPlatypus | FoolsRun: to be honest boot issues like that are the least of your possible worries when doing an install to one big filesystem | 03:55 |
| mj8741 | Vin73: Hi, when you say it hangs - you mean the computer won't start? | 03:55 |
| Vin73 | mj8741: yes....I cannot boot from the disk after installation...I get a string of I/O errors | 03:56 |
| FoolsRun | DocPlatypus: so the Ubuntu default isn't desirable, then. That seems unintuative for an installer. | 03:56 |

| tim | FoolsRun: Partitioning allows you to have different file system formats on the same volume. | 04:00 |
| DocPlatypus | FoolsRun: if you have corruption on something like /usr you don't lose everything necessarily | 04:00 |
| Vin73 | mj8741: Also, I wanted to mention another observation regarding the RAM test | 04:00 |
| FoolsRun | DocPlatypus: that makes sense, but it's unlikely to have cause my boot issue | 04:01 |
| DocPlatypus | whereas with everything on one filesystem, the odds of losing it all go way up | 04:01 |
| FoolsRun | I've had a lot more problems with disk crashes than with file system corruption, though, and separate partitions won't save a bad disk | 04:01 |
| DocPlatypus | FoolsRun: it's more likely to be just a bug in the warm reboot process that the BIOS/boot code can't handle | 04:01 |

| [Rickmasta] | scott_ino, how much does the average computer run on? | 04:15 |
| Vin73 | mj8741: thanks and thanks for your time | 04:15 |
| tim | [Rickmasta]: I don't really think so... The page says it has an ARM processor. Many applications aren't written for that archetecture. Check it out here: http://www.ubuntu.com/news/arm-linux | 04:15 |
| mj8741 | Vin73: no problem | 04:15 |
| IdleOne | [Rickmasta]: also low on ram | 04:16 |
| Vin73 | has anyone faced the same issue as the one that I reported now? please comment | 04:16 |

| wookienz | hi, i have moved a raid 0 array from windows to linux The buis can see the array and says it is healthy and functional, but i can gte ubuntu to see it. I have tried building a md0 array of the drives but when i mount it it says not a vsalid ntfs array. anyone familiar? | 04:16 |
| [Rickmasta] | Alright, that's all i needed. | 04:16 |
| IdleOne | [Rickmasta]: check the minimum requirements on ubuntu.com | 04:16 |
| scott_ino | [Rickmasta], well for ubuntu I'd suggest at least 750mhz which I have done... but still might not run that great | 04:16 |
| PingJ | https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/6510 Thats what I found so far. | 04:16 |
| scott_ino | wouldn't use ubuntu fo something that low spec | 04:16 |
| FoolsRun | PingJ: If you get GNOME in recovery mode, I'd first look at your video drivers. | 04:16 |
| scott_ino | there are tons of variants | 04:16 |
| PingJ | I'll be able to connect to the internet in Recovery? | 04:17 |
| lordppm | hi my system becomes significantly slower after upgrading to linux kernel 2.6.32-23. How does it happen? | 04:17 |
| scott_ino | [Rickmasta], tons of ubuntu variants, that work a lot better with lower spec, still 300mhz is pretty low | 04:17 |
| FoolsRun | PingJ: I believe so, but I'm not positive. Someone else might be able to answer that for sure. | 04:17 |
| [Rickmasta] | k | 04:18 |
| tim | [Rickmasta]: Sorry it won't work... You might be able to run a vanilla linux kernel with a really small gfx, but not ubuntu. | 04:18 |
| [Rickmasta] | So anyone know any cheap laptops/netbooks that can run ubuntu smoothly? | 04:18 |
| PingJ | Let me try that and I'll be back. Thanks Foolsrun, I appreciate it. | 04:18 |
| FoolsRun | PingJ: no problem. Good luck! | 04:19 |
| tim | [Rickmasta]: The HP mini's run Ubuntu great. Everything worked out of the box for me, it even has really smooth desktop effects. They run about 300USD for a new one. I reccommend it. | 04:20 |
| pondera | the netbooks tim ? | 04:20 |
| valbaca | tim: which version of ubuntu? | 04:21 |
| [Rickmasta] | I might just save my money and go with a MBP. | 04:21 |
| pondera | ya i set up ubuntu netook addition on my friends and she doesnt what to go back to windows lol | 04:21 |
| jnewbuntu | wookienz, how did you move the array from win to linux? different box? | 04:21 |
| tim | valbaca: I'm running Karmic and it's amazingly smooth and all of the hardware works wonderfully. | 04:21 |
| tim | pondera: I'm sorry. I'm confused. What were you asking? | 04:21 |
| valbaca | thanks, I've been looking for one for the g/f and just happened to look at xchat when you mentioned the hp | 04:22 |
| pondera | tim you were talking about the ubuntu netbook edition right ? | 04:22 |
| NeverCast | Hey. | 04:23 |
| NeverCast | So I removed an Application from Ubuntu Software Center | 04:23 |
| NeverCast | but it remains in the Applications menu | 04:23 |
| NeverCast | How do I go about removing it? | 04:23 |
| NeverCast | Using 9.10 | 04:23 |
| wookienz | jnewbuntu: same box, same controller, new OS!! | 04:23 |
| tim | valbaca: Oh yes. I've got the HP Mini 110 and it's liquid smooth on regular Ubuntu. I didn't like Ubuntu Netbook's interface, but it works fine as well. | 04:23 |
| tim | pondera: Nope. Wasn't asking. Are you having problems? | 04:24 |
| jnewbuntu | wookienz, you said the BIOS recognized it. So it is SATA raid I assume | 04:24 |
| valbaca | tim: thanks again | 04:24 |
| wookienz | jnewbuntu: yes. | 04:25 |
| tim | NeverCast: This can happen sometimes. What you've got to do is logout and log back in and it will probably go away. Or, you can go into the terminal and do a "killall gnome-panel" and see if that takes care of it. If it doesn't, you're going to have to manually remove it by right clicking on "Applications" and going to "Edit Menu" and deleting the entry. | 04:25 |
| jnewbuntu | wookienz, Follow this on how to set up fakeraid: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FakeRaidHowto. The recognition of raid is not automatic in ubuntu | 04:25 |
| wookienz | jnewbuntu: i can build a new array, but just cant mount it. | 04:25 |
| pondera | oh for anyone who can answer. would i be able to install windows 7 on a hardrive that has 4 partitions ? i tried xp but it said to many partitions | 04:25 |
| tim | valbaca: Of course! Best of luck! | 04:25 |
| lunks | How can I have video conference on Ubuntu? | 04:25 |
| jnewbuntu | wookienz, did you use mdadm on the raid device? | 04:26 |
| tim | lunks: Have you given ekiga or skype a try? | 04:26 |
| NeverCast | Thanks tim, I tried the restart / log out options and that didn't work | 04:26 |
| NeverCast | tim, however I did find the entries in /usr/share/applications | 04:26 |
| === ExcruciationX is now known as oMg-iTz-eX | ||
| lunks | tim: installing ekiga, but skype does not allow more than one contact at a time, I need to send my screen to more than one person | 04:26 |
| NeverCast | tim, Just need to use super user from the terminal to get rid of them. | 04:26 |
| tim | NeverCast: Don't remove those. | 04:27 |
| NeverCast | tim, why not? | 04:27 |
| lunks | tim: I actually want to share my screen rather than my webcam... Skype was fine until I had to add one more person. :P | 04:27 |
| NeverCast | tim, they are just broken links | 04:27 |
| NeverCast | tim, are they not? | 04:27 |
| tim | NeverCast: You might mess up a config file. | 04:27 |
| scott_ino | lunks, is this specifically for screencasting/training | 04:27 |
| tim | NeverCast: It's better to just remove the entry in the Applications menu. | 04:27 |
| lunks | scott_ino, yep | 04:27 |
| NeverCast | Okay I'll do that. | 04:27 |
| NeverCast | tim, Fixed it. Thanks (: | 04:28 |
| scott_ino | because i would't use either for that... sadly the best tools for this aren't free | 04:28 |
| wookienz | jnewbuntu: yes. the raid array has data on it that icant afford to lose. so i need to get it back up and runnign without frucking it | 04:28 |
| tim | lunks: Hmm... There are a few proprietary video conferencing programs, but of course those cost money and might just work in windows. Skype will eventually add multi person conferencing in linux. | 04:28 |
| Alcohol52 | [pondera] I have could install in hard disk with 6 partition(3 ntfs, 1fat, 1 ext4 and swap) | 04:28 |
| tim | NeverCast: Sure thing! Hope you don't have that problem. | 04:29 |
| scott_ino | lunks, yuuguu I think can do it, not sure if it allows multiple people though | 04:29 |
| rjb | running ubuntu 10.04, firefox 3.6.6 in debug mode i get Gdk-WARNING **: XID collision | 04:29 |
| NeverCast | tim, Where would I ask about Java causing Ubuntu to completely freeze, mouse freezes and everything. | 04:29 |
| tim | pondera: I think the trick is for windows is to install the os on the last partition. It really is pretty picky on install. | 04:29 |
| scott_ino | lunks, depending on what your budget is, elluminate is an awesome java based tool I use frequently. | 04:29 |
| tim | NeverCast: Which version of Java are you running? | 04:29 |
| NeverCast | tim, 1.6.20 I think. | 04:30 |
| NeverCast | tim, Believe it's the latest | 04:30 |
| NeverCast | tim, I'm unsure if it's OpenJDK or Sun | 04:30 |
| lunks | scott_ino, I'd rather want it free. :P | 04:30 |
| scott_ino | lunks, http://www.yuuguu.com/home | 04:30 |
| NeverCast | tim, as I think I have both installed. | 04:30 |
| tim | NeverCast: Is it OpenJDK or something else? | 04:30 |
| wookienz | jnewbuntu: i have tried mdadm --build /dev/md0 -n2 -l0 --chunk-64 /dev/sda1 /dev/sdb1, it creates successfully - i just cant then mount it. i have also tried chunk 128, sdb1 then sda1 all of which still same issue wheni try and mount. | 04:30 |
| tim | NeverCast: Woops. Already answered my question. | 04:30 |
| tim | NeverCast: When it crashes, which one are you using? | 04:30 |
| jnewbuntu | wookienz, As far as I understand, you need to use dmraid as per the post I gave before. Do not use mdadm when you have fakeraid | 04:31 |
| NeverCast | tim, I'll check the startup log, one sec. | 04:31 |
| tim | NeverCast: Okiedokie. | 04:31 |
| Zero_Shakal | redenorte.net | 04:31 |
| NeverCast | tim, Java version: 1.6.0_20 (Sun Microsystems Inc.) <http://java.sun.com/> | 04:31 |
| jnewbuntu | wookienz, even though ubuntu recognizes them as 2 devices, the BIOS says it is one and that is where the conflict arises. | 04:31 |
| NeverCast | tim, so Sun I believe | 04:32 |
| tim | NeverCast: I would uninstall both and start over. | 04:32 |
| NeverCast | tim, Okay I'll give that a go. | 04:32 |
| NeverCast | tim, The application I'm trying to run is a Java game, using OpenGL | 04:32 |
| === sen_ is now known as sen_x | ||
| NeverCast | tim, how do I go about updating Graphics drivers and OpenGL? as that is something I will probably have to try if this fails. | 04:33 |
| wookienz | jnewbuntu: dmraid -r shows "/dev/sdb: pdc, "pdc_fhdeecgf", stripe, ok, 486328064 sectors, data@ 0" | 04:33 |
| lyhana8_ | hi, how can I find a network printer using the command line ? | 04:33 |
| tim | NeverCast: If you've updated through the Update Manager, you're up to date. | 04:33 |
| scott_ino | lunks, honestly skype or yuuguu are your only real free options unless you wanna do something more complicated | 04:33 |
| NeverCast | tim, okay sweet. Thanks.. Be back shortly, removing Java's | 04:33 |
| jnewbuntu | wookienz, right so /dev/sdb is a part of fakeraid. Do not create software raid on it using mdadm | 04:34 |
| tim | NeverCast: The program you're trying to run. Was that installed though the Software Center or something else? | 04:34 |
| lunks | scott_ino, I could complicate things a bit, if you have one crazy idea which could work. :) | 04:34 |
| skorn | How can I mount a USB hard drive? | 04:34 |
| jnewbuntu | wookienz, In any case always back your data up. | 04:34 |
| NeverCast | tim, Java Web Start. | 04:34 |
| NeverCast | tim, http://wurmonline.com/ | 04:35 |
| skorn | It doesn't appear under media. | 04:35 |
| scott_ino | lunks, I'd give yuuguu a go first, haven't used it in quite some time, but i know it works, just not sure about multiple people | 04:35 |
| NeverCast | skorn, It should just appear on your desktop when you plug the device in.' | 04:35 |
| tgalal | I need to ssh-keygen for a user, without actually being logged in with that user.. Is it possible ? If logged in as root? | 04:35 |
| tim | NeverCast: Then I don't know what the problem is. It may just be an issue with the game. Java Web Start, if installed through the Software Center, should work out of the box. | 04:35 |
| wookienz | jnewbuntu: quite correct....but presently I cant the raid up to back it up! originally i was just going to reinstall windows 7 again - but it could see the raid either. the drive was there - but just couldnt access it. so i moved to ubuntu (finally!) thinking that it can do anything.. | 04:36 |
| NeverCast | tim, the game works up to login and connect, when the 3D window pops up the whole system halts. | 04:36 |
| tim | skorn: You can view mounted drives either on the desktop, or by going to Places>Computer | 04:36 |
| skorn | I looked under /dev/disk and it says something about USB but it isnt mounting | 04:36 |
| NeverCast | skorn, should mount automatically | 04:36 |

| === gh is now known as Guest2776 | ||

| wookienz | jnewbuntu: yes sda and sdb are the raid 0 array. the chipset is sb710 which is fakeraid - just looking at it now to try and get more info... ill paste trhe output of fdisk as it talks about GPT partitions. | 04:40 |

| False_chicken | Oh. thanks! Now after I backup how can I restore the files to the new user (Same name and password) and set the permissions? | 04:51 |
| jnewbuntu | wookienz, I take it that sdc is not a part of fakeraid. Where did you install the GRUB of ubuntu? | 04:52 |
| wookienz | jnewbuntu: sdc | 04:52 |
| sweetpi | arunkumar413: maybe your looking for the -o outputfile option | 04:52 |
| jnewbuntu | So with your BIOS set to sdc can you boot into ubuntu | 04:52 |
| jnewbuntu | wookienz, So with your BIOS set to sdc can you boot into ubuntu | 04:52 |
| tim | False_chicken: Yes. What are you transferring them to? A USB hard drive or another drive with Ubuntu installed? | 04:52 |
| False_chicken | A usb drive. Then after new install I would like to restore the home folder | 04:53 |
| DocPlatypus | False_chicken: simplest way is to format the USB drive as ext4, second easiest is to make a tar.bz2 of your home dir | 04:53 |
| th_ | hi all. I have dual screen system and I'd like 2 wallpapers. is this possible? | 04:53 |
| wookienz | jnewbuntu: "set to sdc" i have a 6 port SATA stack. First 4 ports have 2 x 250gb drives (the raid 0) ie 2 not used. Port 5,6 is the ssd (sdc) and cdrom. BIOS is set to raid fro port 1-4 and IDe for port 5-6. | 04:54 |
| wookienz | "set to sdc" ? | 04:54 |
| skorn | Please can someone help me mount an hfs+ journaled drive | 04:54 |
| tim | False_chicken: Don't really worry about formatting your USB stick to anything special. Just transfer the files over to the stick and when you put them back on your computer, they will be fine. | 04:54 |
| False_chicken | Oh. So as long as the username and password are the same ill be ok? | 04:55 |
| NeverCast | OpenJDK is apparently out of date. | 04:55 |
| NeverCast | and it's the latest lol. | 04:56 |
| skorn | does anyone know how to mount hfs+ drives | 04:56 |
| tim | False_chicken: It's pretty complex. When you take them from your Ubuntu HD (probably ext4 or ext3) and put them on a USB, it will lose the special permissions because the USB drive is FAT32. When you transfer them back when you get your Ubuntu back up, they will be given the right permissions by whatever user you are logged in as. | 04:56 |
| jnewbuntu | wookienz, are you able to boot into ubuntu? | 04:57 |
| False_chicken | Oh. ok. Thanks All. | 04:57 |
| NeverCast | tim, Okay here goes. I'm going to hit 'play' I'll let you know if this thing dies. | 04:57 |

| NeverCast | tim, Now Java crashed.. which is better than my computer crashing :P | 04:58 |
| tim | NeverCast: Well. That's better than nothing. Try getting a PPA for OpenSDK | 04:58 |
| NeverCast | tim, 'PPA' ? | 04:58 |
| ejv | Hello, wireless support for Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG [Golan] Network Connection (rev 02) has broken under the recent Ubuntu 10.04 update to vmlinuz-2.6.32-23-generic, how do I make it work? | 04:59 |
| tim | NeverCast: Personal Package Arcives. They usually have an unstable version of the program, but they are the bleeding edge and might work magically. | 04:59 |
| wookienz | jnewbuntu: where i am now. | 05:00 |
| NeverCast | tim, Okay I'll look into it. | 05:00 |
| IdeAleSs | Openoffice on 10.04 is about to drive me nuts. I am working on 5 similar docs. It works for a while then won't open them. I have already redone them once and have wasted over 10 hours. Anyone know how to tell what in the odt file is crashing the program? | 05:00 |
| tim | skorn: Ok got it. Go to the Ubuntu Software Center and install these programs: hfsplus, hfsprogs, and hfsutils | 05:01 |
| tim | skorn: That should help you. | 05:01 |
| jnewbuntu | wookienz, I assuming you are able to get into ubuntu. Can you fire up gparted. | 05:01 |
| kickingintender | macros? | 05:01 |
| tim | NeverCast: Ok. Hope it solves your problem. That sounds annoying... | 05:01 |
| kickingintender | IdeAleSs | 05:01 |
| Tohuw | I've got a folder "foo". I ran chmod 2775 . from within the directory to add a sticky bit. Why doesn't chmod 0775 . unset it? | 05:01 |
| IdeAleSs | kickingintender :-) | 05:01 |
| tim | NeverCast: Here you go. https://launchpad.net/~openjdk/+archive/ppa | 05:01 |
| Ububegin | I like to download some stuff from a ftp folder.. How can i use wget to recursively download all the stuff inside.. | 05:02 |
| IdeAleSs | kickingintender, oh, :-) no, no macros. | 05:02 |
| tim | NeverCast: Add that PPA, update and upgrade. | 05:02 |
| NeverCast | tim, Ironically that is the same link that firefox gave me for 'OpenJDK PPA' lol. | 05:02 |
| IdeAleSs | kickingintender, a header / image / four cell table, and text. | 05:02 |
| === AndIrc___ is now known as c0Ld_ | ||
| tim | Ububegin: Recursively? What do you mean? | 05:02 |
| === c0Ld_ is now known as c0Ld_Fire | ||
| tim | NeverCast: Haha. Do you know how to install that PPA? | 05:02 |
| wookienz | jnewbuntu: i started gparted about 30 minutes ago and it is stuck sitting on "searching /dev/sdb partitions" | 05:02 |
| kickingintender | might be a bug | 05:03 |
| kickingintender | update/report a bug | 05:03 |
| Tohuw | Ububegin: you'd need to scan all the contents of the directory, then grab them. | 05:03 |
| tim | IdeAleSs: Can you explain again what the issue is? | 05:03 |
| IdeAleSs | kickingintender, it is a pretty major bug! Renders OO useless for me. | 05:03 |
| Ububegin | tim,Tohuw : found this link, guy.. http://rasterweb.net/raster/2007/02/14/recursive-ftp-using-wget/ | 05:03 |
| Tohuw | Ububegin: in other words, ls . > list and run wget against that list (or so, there's a million ways) | 05:04 |
| Tohuw | oh | 05:04 |
| Tohuw | interesting | 05:04 |
| Tohuw | I odn't use wget enough | 05:04 |
| Tohuw | clearly | 05:04 |
| tim | Ububegin: Hope that solves it! | 05:04 |
| Tohuw | I've got a folder "foo". I ran chmod 2775 . from within the directory to add a sticky bit. Why doesn't chmod 0775 . unset it? | 05:04 |
| NeverCast | tim, I'm sure I will know how to install it once i download it (: | 05:04 |
| IdeAleSs | tim, I am creating some bid sheets for an auction. As long as the files were small (3 or 4 pages) there were no problem. They are now 8 to 12 pages and worked fine until I close them. | 05:04 |
| Ububegin | tim : quite cool huh.. just use wget -r ... :D | 05:05 |
| tim | NeverCast: Well... You aren't really installing or downloading anything... | 05:05 |
| tim | Ububegin: Wow! Easier than I thought! | 05:05 |
| IdeAleSs | tim, now when I open one the memory takes of and tops at about 2GB and the program is non responsive. Sometimes it may try to act normal until I save the file and the same thing happens. | 05:05 |
| jnewbuntu | wookienz, does sudo fdisk pdc_fhdeecgf give anything? | 05:05 |
| tim | IdeAleSs: Can you try opening those documents in AbiWord or Google Docs to see if you can save them in a different format? | 05:05 |
| Ububegin | tim,Tohuw : Yeah.. Linux just makes everything simple.. Heil Linus Torwalds... | 05:06 |
| Petskull | does this crash firefox on ubuntu for anybody? http://www.3dtotal.com/tutorial/3d_studio_max/hard_surface_essentials/hard_surface_02.php | 05:06 |
| jnewbuntu | wookienz, actually sudo fdisk -l pdc_fhdeecgf | 05:06 |
| Tohuw | Ububegin: in this case, you'd be hailing GNU, not Linux ;) | 05:06 |
| IdeAleSs | tim, I will try. I don't have AbiWord installed but I can. | 05:06 |
| tim | Ububegin: Haha. Linus really didn't have anything to do with wget. | 05:07 |
| tim | Petskull: It's messing up on Google Chrome for me. | 05:07 |
| wookienz | jnewbuntu: nothign | 05:07 |

| NeverCast | tim, Thank you (: | 05:27 |
| tim | Pr0jectRec0n: Give Ubuntu Tweak a go. They've got better power management than the regular setup does. | 05:27 |

| kman | HI all anyone come across a login problem where you it prompts for ID, then password, the password again, and then starts again with user login prompt? | 05:43 |
| raddy | LJRuff: Yup, if synaptic driver kept installed in Windows, it would do the same. | 05:44 |
| LJRuff | raddy, then it sounds like a hardware issue. Has it always done this? | 05:44 |
| IdeAleSs | tim, found the problem if you are interested. | 05:44 |
| === DaZ is now known as Guest14794 | ||
| raddy | LJRuff: It has been doing this since sometime, but when i had installed Alps driver in Windows, this problem is not coming, even though the driver is not compatible with this touchpad. | 05:45 |
| IdeAleSs | tim, I was using the draw toolbar to put in some horizontal dividing lines. They were causing the crash. I edited the content.xml and deleted all the <Draw:Line>...</Draw:Line> code sections and things seem to be happy. | 05:45 |
| tim | IdeAleSs: Nice! How did you figure that out? | 05:46 |
| LJRuff | raddy, Sounds like it needs a newer driver - otherwise it's not much of an issue other than a simple inconvienance. | 05:46 |

| NeverCast | Try a combination of switching the renderer between JOGL and LWJGL, and also experiment with 'Release OpenGL context each frame' in the advanced options menu. | 05:47 |
| NeverCast | You should also check that you are using the official Sun JRE 1.5, instead of [Blackdown Java-Linux] 1.4.2-02 (as included by default with many 'fully GPL' distros), as it is known to cause problems. | 05:47 |
| linux | Should I get the Phenom II Quad, or the Athlon 64 Quad? Which performs better? | 05:47 |

| tim | NeverCast: Give that a shot? | 05:48 |
| IdeAleSs | tim, I had tried to delete them within OO. I noticed they were not staying put to their anchor point. Sense the crash got worse even on file that were good the more I opened them I did some snooping. I searched the file I had deleted them from for Draw and noticed that there were still some in there even though I had deleted all the visible ones. Just seemed odd to I removed the remaining ones. | 05:48 |
| tim | IdeAleSs: Hmm. I would stick to .doc from now on... | 05:48 |
| linux | Yeah, with all the video production I do, I need a 64bit | 05:49 |

| OptimisticBear | So I accidentally got rid of the applet on my toolbar that shows active programs, and maybe a separate one that is the letter. both are present when i installed so i dont know the names of them... 10.04 btw | 06:03 |

| sweetpi | Shpook: hold shift while booting, or press esc | 06:04 |
| LJRuff | {C}ronos, All are primary, all at beginning - / should be around 7 gigs, swap should be at least the size of your ram and /home should take up the rest | 06:05 |
| tim | deltree_: The command in the terminal should be "gksu file-roller" | 06:05 |

| bullgard_ | LJRuff: Your recipe does not function on my IBM Thinkpad T42 computer. It does not produce any outbut although this computer is wireless operational. | 06:07 |
| tim | deltree_: Yep. Sounds like you got it. | 06:07 |
| sweetpi | UbuntuNub: cause you need write permissions look at sudo or gksudo | 06:07 |
| LJRuff | bullgard4, I have a thinkpad too. Can you just lspci and pastebin the output to me? | 06:07 |
| sweetpi | bullgard4: lshw -C network | 06:07 |
| OptimisticBear | can someon right click and tell me the name of that letter icon on the top panel (default) | 06:08 |
| LJRuff | or that works, thx sweetpi | 06:08 |
| UbuntuNub | Ok, I'll have a stab at that. | 06:08 |
| tim | OptimisticBear: Letter icon? Can you be more specific? | 06:08 |
| OptimisticBear | the one that looks like snail mail | 06:09 |
| xpike | can anyone help me install Virtual Box OSE? It's said I need to recompile some modules for the driver to work | 06:09 |
| deltree_ | wow sweet time! thanks ubuntu guru! | 06:09 |
| OptimisticBear | like a piece a mail you send to the post | 06:09 |
| bharat1 | hjh | 06:09 |
| maxwellian | needpieceofmind: Sorry, wireless is a little rough in Ubuntu out of the box, because there aren't free drivers for a lot of hardware. | 06:09 |
| bharat1 | usb modem help i need | 06:10 |
| deltree_ | so why was i denied permission to extract before using the terminal to open the archive manager? | 06:10 |
| tim | OptimisticBear: Oh. That could be two things. It could be Evolution, the mail manager, or it could be the notifications area in the pane. | 06:10 |
| maxwellian | needpieceofmind: Have you tried ndiswrapper? | 06:11 |
| bharat1 | =-O | 06:11 |
| bullgard_ | LJRuff: http://pastebin.com/MuC61c26 | 06:11 |
| OptimisticBear | tim: I have the notifications area on my panel but i cant see running applications like amarok. ill try mail manager | 06:11 |
| simon | i have some problems | 06:11 |
| simon | i install ubuntu using my old /home | 06:12 |
| needpieceofmind | @maxwellian not yet if ur refering to my network problems | 06:12 |
| prince_jammys | deltree_: because you ran fileroller as admin using 'gksu', which allowed you to write to /usr/share/whatever | 06:12 |
| tim | deltree_: You were denied permission because the /usr/ directory is owned by root. You needed to do "gksu" which runs root with graphics so you can use the extractor program to get those files from the user side to the root side. | 06:12 |
| simon | but i reboot and it uses deafult config | 06:12 |
| LJRuff | bullgard_, did you try sweetpi's suggestion? (lshw -C network) | 06:12 |
| prince_jammys | deltree_: had you just typed 'fileroller' you still would have been denied permission. | 06:12 |
| maxwellian | needpieceofmind: What have you tried? | 06:13 |
| needpieceofmind | the fwcutter | 06:13 |
| tim | OptimisticBear: Running applications would be listed under the "Window List" applet in the panel. | 06:13 |
| needpieceofmind | but thinking about downgrading to feisty | 06:13 |
| simon | this should look like this http://img191.imageshack.us/content_round.php?page=done&l=img191/9974/screenshot011ac.png | 06:13 |
| deltree_ | fascinating. Thank you very much. im still getting my head around the file system and no virtually no terminal commands (except old dos throwbacks like dir ect) | 06:13 |
| simon | but it looks... | 06:14 |
| simon | http://img139.imageshack.us/content_round.php?page=done&l=img139/8574/pantallazowq.png | 06:14 |

| ubottu | needpieceofmind: Ubuntu 7.04 (Feisty Fawn) was the sixth release of Ubuntu. End Of Life: October 19th, 2008. See !eol and !upgrade for more details. | 06:14 |
| simon | any help?=( | 06:14 |
| prince_jammys | Shpook: mm, that sucks. i had this problem with one of my monitors. it still has to do with video mode, i think, but i don't know the solution. | 06:14 |
| sebsebseb | !eol | 06:14 |
| ubottu | End-Of-Life is the time when security updates for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades | 06:14 |
| Shpook | alright, that didn't work either, neither did nosplash | 06:14 |
| ubuntless | Can anyone help me configure VirtualBox Ose? I'm trying to install windows xp | 06:15 |
| prince_jammys | Shpook: ah, you were able to edit the boot line? | 06:15 |
| sebsebseb | ubuntless: #vbox | 06:15 |
| maxwellian | needpieceofmind: What are you using now? Gutsy? | 06:15 |
| Shpook | prince_jammys: eventually I'll get it figured out...I have video problems on every gateway I've ever tried installing ubuntu on | 06:15 |
| Shpook | prince_jammys: yeah, through the grub editor | 06:15 |
| ubuntless | #vbox | 06:15 |
| OptimisticBear | tim: well its not just the a list of the windows its like a background application | 06:15 |
| sebsebseb | ubuntless: /join #vbox | 06:15 |
| bullgard_ | sweetpi: Thank you very much for your help. -- And how can I determine what driver drives my wireless interface? | 06:15 |
| tim | OptimisticBear: I'm sorry... I'm still not understanding what you're talking about... | 06:16 |
| sweetpi | bullgard4: it should be listed in that command, something like "driver: ath5k" | 06:16 |
| prince_jammys | bullgard_: there is a 'thinkwiki' site that may be useful in general, for a thinkpad user, btw. | 06:16 |
| needpieceofmind | im sure it would all be much easier if i had net on that box but no net except wireless card and i have tried a few tuts i have found to get it to work but nothing i have a done has worked i have read numerous articles about issues with the 4318:14e4 which is what i have | 06:16 |
| djmccormick | i'm having trouble getting my D-Link DFE-530TX+ network card to work properly. it shows up in ifconfig but all the packet numbers are all zero. any tips? | 06:17 |
| OptimisticBear | tim: ok so instead of minimizing the application i can "close" it and it will still run and an icon of the running application will pop up next to the mail manager icon, which i cant find still. | 06:17 |
| sweetpi | Shpook: what was your exact command line? | 06:17 |
| ross__ | what does "sudo bash" do | 06:18 |
| OptimisticBear | tim: Indicator applet!! | 06:18 |
| tim | OptimisticBear: Is that "alltray"? | 06:18 |
| FlameTai1 | hi guys | 06:18 |
| prince_jammys | ross__: starts a shell as root. you may as well do ''sudo -i'' | 06:18 |
| tim | OptimisticBear: Ok good! | 06:18 |
| maxwellian | needpieceofmind: It's frustrating, I know. I've never tried to work with the Broadcom cards, so I may not be much use. But we can try. What distribution are you using now? Gutsy? | 06:18 |
| ross__ | prince_jammys: can you expound on that? | 06:18 |
| prince_jammys | ross__: do you know what bash is? | 06:18 |
| ross__ | prince_jammys: no | 06:18 |
| bullgard_ | sweetpi: Yes, you are right. I overlooked it. Sorry. | 06:18 |
| OptimisticBear | tim: thanks for the help | 06:18 |
| ross__ | prince_jammys: how do you get out? | 06:18 |
| prince_jammys | ross__: exit | 06:19 |
| tim | OptimisticBear: Sorry I wasn't any better... | 06:19 |
| bharat1 | Any buddy using micromax 300g usb modem .. plz help me to how to connect ? | 06:19 |
| ross__ | prince_jammys: what is bash | 06:19 |
| Dat001 | hi all | 06:19 |
| bharat1 | Any buddy using micromax 300g usb modem .. plz help me to how to connect ? | 06:19 |
| Shpook | sweetpi: video=vesa i915.modeset=0 | 06:19 |
| prince_jammys | ross__: it's the interpreter for the shell (the commandline you see in a terminal, for example) | 06:19 |
| mistermatt | does anyone know any cheap usb wifi adapters that will work out of the box with ubuntu? | 06:19 |
| mistermatt | or with very minimal configuring | 06:19 |
| bharat1 | Any buddy using micromax 300g usb modem .. plz help me to how to connect ? | 06:20 |
| prince_jammys | ross__: when you open a terminal and see a prompt, that is bash running in interactive mode. | 06:20 |
| sweetpi | Shpook: there wasnt any other options before that? | 06:20 |
| NeverCast | tim, IT WORKS :D | 06:20 |
| tim | NeverCast: Yay! | 06:20 |
| Shpook | prince_jammys, sweetpi: I was able to boot into recovery and low graphics mode, so now I'm going to go over the logs | 06:20 |
| prince_jammys | Shpook: excellent | 06:20 |
| ross__ | prince_jammys: i see | 06:20 |
| NeverCast | tim, oh wait it stopped... | 06:20 |
| Dat001 | my normal 3 g modem and wi-fi modem work out of the box | 06:20 |
| tim | NeverCast: :p | 06:20 |
| ross__ | prince_jammys: so sudo bash sets it in the shell mode? | 06:20 |
| Dat001 | pluged it in and it work | 06:20 |
| needpieceofmind | dat what kinda wifi do u have | 06:20 |
| NeverCast | tim, Damn it IRC killed it :P | 06:20 |
| Shpook | sweetpi: oh, yes there were, I just don't remember them all. an initd something I believe, and a few others | 06:20 |
| Dat001 | the vodafone 3 g modem with wi-fi | 06:21 |
| prince_jammys | ross__: 'sudo' runs a program as root. 'sudo bash' starts an interactive shell as root | 06:21 |
| prince_jammys | well, sudo with no user argument runs as root, or superuser | 06:21 |
| Dat001 | connection to n of the shelf wi-fi router | 06:21 |
| ross__ | prince_jammys: looks like i need to read more about linux : ( | 06:22 |
| needpieceofmind | what brand | 06:22 |
| simon | any help ;_;? | 06:22 |
| maxwellian | ross__: Why are you trying to do sudo bash? | 06:22 |
| tim | NeverCast: I'm sorry but i've got to go. | 06:22 |
| needpieceofmind | sorry missed the first part | 06:22 |
| NeverCast | tim, All good mate, Cya later ;) | 06:22 |
| tim | NeverCast: Good luck! | 06:22 |

| jenda | Morning. I'm using Lucid and compiz (or whatever the accelerated desktop is called now - it was installed as default). I have four workspaces and I often switch between them - I have very specific applications running on each. However, the Ctrl+Alt+arrowkey shortcut only works in one out of ten times. There doesn't seem to be any explanation (or any difference between the cases). I press the keys once and the workspace slides - the next second, the same s | 06:23 |
| seidos | my sound mixer icon is missing from the gnome-panel, how can I start it? | 06:24 |
| mistermatt | I'll make a forum post on the ubunutu forums maybe | 06:24 |
| sweetpi | simon: adding a theme isnt going to install programs the user had, where you downloaded it, you should ask what programs were running | 06:24 |
| ActionParsnip | Yo yo yo | 06:24 |
| sebsebseb | !panels | seidos | 06:24 |
| ubottu | seidos: To reset the gnome panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » | 06:24 |
| deltree_ | ok more entry level questions. in my users and groups settings i have disabled the login password. yet i am still asked to unlock the default keyring at login. how can i disable this prompt while keeping a password for system changes and installation of programs? | 06:24 |
| seidos | sebsebseb, that won't work, restarting doesn't fix the problem | 06:25 |
| simon | sweetpi, but i shouldnt have hemes and csettings? | 06:25 |
| ActionParsnip | deltree_: there's a pam keyring package which should unlock the key at login. Let me find a guide | 06:25 |
| sebsebseb | simon: and you can't just add it to panel either? | 06:25 |
| sebsebseb | seidos: ^ | 06:25 |
| deltree_ | and do you people get paid for helping everyone out or are you just packed full of awesome? | 06:26 |
| sebsebseb | deltree_: volunters not paid | 06:26 |
| sweetpi | simon: sry didnt realize yours looked stock, maybe the theme isnt compatible | 06:26 |
| seidos | sebsebseb, what? | 06:26 |
| simon | sweetpi, the problem is the configuration | 06:26 |
| deltree_ | bonus awesome to all you | 06:26 |
| sebsebseb | seidos: as in above, since I messaged simon by mistake | 06:26 |
| simon | i install using the old /home partition | 06:26 |
| ImaLamer | deltree_, what is money? | 06:27 |
| prince_jammys | !compiz > ross__ | 06:27 |
| ubottu | ross__, please see my private message | 06:27 |
| sweetpi | simon: how are you adding the theme? | 06:27 |
| maxwellian | ImaLamer: :) | 06:27 |
| ImaLamer | no really, it's been a while :( | 06:27 |
| deltree_ | money is a tool of the greedy to give you nothing for something | 06:28 |
| ActionParsnip | deltree_: http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/2007/07/12/automatically-unlocking-the-default-gnome-keyring-pam-keyring/ | 06:28 |
| seidos | sebsebseb, ah, didn't think about that. Let me try. | 06:28 |
| Spaztic_One | OK, so, I just noticed that my wireless is listed as "disabled" How do I enable it? | 06:28 |
| simon | the themeis in /home,i reinstalled and it isnt installed | 06:28 |
| ActionParsnip | deltree_: personally I use wicd and it seems to sidestep that for some reason. | 06:28 |
| Shpook | VESA(0): Bad V_BIOS checksum.....not good, eh? | 06:28 |
| ActionParsnip | Spaztic_One: run: sudo lshw -C network ,websearch for the product line to find guides | 06:29 |
| ActionParsnip | Spaztic_One: if it says broadcom 43xx then use this | 06:29 |
| ActionParsnip | !broadcom | 06:29 |
| ubottu | Help with Broadcom bcm43xx can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx | 06:29 |
| Spaztic_One | its an atheros | 06:29 |
| ennui | does anyone know of a way to remove or hide the gnome title bar on windows? | 06:29 |
| seidos | sebsebseb, thank you, adding to panel worked | 06:29 |
| sebsebseb | seidos: np | 06:29 |
| ActionParsnip | Spaztic_One: ok then the link is no good. Throw the full chip into a search engine to find guides | 06:30 |
| ross__ | how do you set up | 06:30 |
| Spaztic_One | however, broadcom is what my desktop uses, but that is irrelevant at present | 06:30 |
| ross__ | other desktop environments | 06:30 |
| ross__ | such as KDE | 06:30 |
| boxbeats1 | hi guys, im looking for a resource to teach me how to create a public mySQL server i can access from multiple EC2 servers | 06:30 |
| boxbeats1 | i've googled for half an hour but no luck | 06:30 |
| boxbeats1 | any suggestions? | 06:31 |
| Shpook | prince_jammys, sweetpi: Thanks for the help guys. I'll get the rest of it figured out tomorrow, ou got me pretty far though. Again, thanks. | 06:31 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: are you saying you have another machine that has a broadcom card? | 06:31 |
| Shpook | you* | 06:31 |
| ActionParsnip | ross__: you can install them by installing kubuntu-desktop, fluxbox, lxde or whatever de you desire. There are many in the repo | 06:31 |
| prince_jammys | Shpook: welcome | 06:31 |
| BaSH | server irclobby.com | 06:31 |
| ross__ | would sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop work? | 06:31 |
| ActionParsnip | !sl | boxbeats1 | 06:32 |
| ActionParsnip | !sql | 06:32 |
| ActionParsnip | Wow, no factoid. Will suggest later | 06:32 |
| boxbeats1 | o ok ActionParsnip | 06:32 |
| maxwellian | Is there a list of the factoids? | 06:32 |
| deltree_ | i opened that file with gedit but cant seem to actually edit anything | 06:33 |
| Spaztic_One | maxwellian: Yes, but that is not the computer I am trying to get working. That one is also running Windows XP, but I need wireless for my laptop for school which has an atheros card | 06:34 |
| deltree_ | i installed pam | 06:34 |
| rollman | is there a way bring back a file that's been deleted? | 06:35 |
| needpieceofmind | ok i have a 4318 which uses the bcm43xx i just ran sudo iwlist scan and got a list of networks now the next question is how do i connect | 06:35 |
| rian | hi all | 06:35 |
| ActionParsnip | boxbeats1: you can install an sql server on ubuntu. Sql is a defacto standard so whatever you want to connect to it will be fine | 06:35 |
| prince_jammys | rollman: how did you delete it? | 06:35 |
| rian | can i ask something? | 06:35 |
| rollman | rm | 06:35 |
| rollman | empty trash lol | 06:35 |
| boxbeats1 | ActionParsnip: right now i'm connecting to the mysql server via "localhost" | 06:35 |
| prince_jammys | rollman: that can be very painful. | 06:35 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: What kind of Atheros card? | 06:35 |
| ActionParsnip | Rollman: use backups | 06:35 |
| boxbeats1 | ActionParsnip: what is the address i use externally from other servers? | 06:35 |
| ActionParsnip | needpieceofmind: use network-manager | 06:35 |
| rian | how to see what wireless ip that i use now? | 06:36 |
| maxwellian | needpieceofmind: If the scan works, you should have a gui of some kind to connect. Network manager is installed by default, I think | 06:36 |
| deltree_ | should i use a dif program to edit ect/pamd/gdm? | 06:36 |
| Spaztic_One | maxwellian: 5001, I belive. just a sec and I can paste bin the results of my lshw | 06:36 |
| bullgard_ | rollman: It depends. As a rule: No. But if you have been deleting a file using GNOME programs, you should find it in the Trash folder where you can retrieve it. | 06:36 |
| ActionParsnip | boxbeats1: the ip of the network device it attatches to the network with. ifconfig will show the address | 06:36 |
| boxbeats1 | ActionParsnip: ah ok. and i dont need to configure anything else? | 06:37 |
| Spaztic_One | maxwellian: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/2tuihKB7 | 06:37 |
| ActionParsnip | deltree_: gksudo gedit ,will open it. I suggest you make a copy of the current one in case of catastrophe | 06:37 |
| deltree_ | cool brb | 06:38 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Thanks, don't know if I can help, but I'll compare my own setup. Give me a minute. | 06:38 |
| rollman | i need the source for an assembly program i wrote and deleted i want to see what i done bullgard no i emptied the trash | 06:38 |
| ross__ | i just installed kubuntu desktop in the termianl | 06:38 |
| ross__ | and i am stuck | 06:38 |
| ActionParsnip | boxbeats1: if its working as normal from localhost then it will be the same on that ip. I suggest you put the server on a static ip (dhcp for servers is a disaster waiting to happen) | 06:38 |
| ross__ | in the instructin page | 06:38 |
| ross__ | the last line | 06:38 |
| ross__ | says | 06:38 |
| ActionParsnip | ross__: quit hammering enter, you are spamming the channel | 06:39 |
| Spaztic_One | maxwellian: OK. I think it might be that Lucid says that the card is disabled, and I am uncertain as to how to enable it | 06:39 |
| ross__ | default display manager, how do you get out of this? I tried hitting enter, q, and tab, and it doesn't work | 06:39 |
| boxbeats1 | ActionParsnip: icic ok. thanks! | 06:39 |
| prince_jammys | ross__: do any options appear? | 06:39 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Just to be sure, is there a switch for your card? | 06:39 |
| ross__ | 1 gdm 2 kde 3 .. | 06:40 |
| ActionParsnip | ross__: use cursors and enter | 06:40 |
| ross__ | wait...i picked option 2 and entered, it seems to be unpacking a lot of packages.. | 06:40 |
| ActionParsnip | ross__: or maybe tab | 06:40 |
| Spaztic_One | maxwellian: Heh, not sure. Its new to me, just button with a wifi looking symbol on it that is blue. It was red earlier and I'm not sure what made it change colors. pressing it doesn't seem to do anything | 06:41 |
| ActionParsnip | ross__: yes you picked kdm and the install is continuing | 06:41 |
| ross__ | what if i had picked the other ones | 06:41 |
| ross__ | gdm, i already have this environment | 06:41 |
| Spaztic_One | maxwellian, ack, highlighted and deleted half my post. Computer is new to me, just got it in the mail today off of ebay. There is a button with a wifi (etc) | 06:42 |
| deltree_ | well nothing bad happened but i still needed to unlock the keyring manually. what was the other method somone suggested? | 06:42 |
| bullgard_ | rollman: It depends how you write the source code of the assembly program. Usually people write the source code of an assembly program in a text editor. May be this text editor automatically made a copy of your assembly source code text. If you wrote the assembly source code in a programming environment, chances are that the programming envoronment automatically made a copy of your source... | 06:42 |
| bullgard_ | ...code text. | 06:42 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Do you know when the switch is on/off? | 06:43 |
| bullgard_ | s/envoronment/environment/ | 06:43 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Google your laptop or whatever to figure that out first, if not. | 06:43 |
| deltree_ | and do i need to remove this pam business if it doesnt work? | 06:43 |
| rollman | bullgard i'll check see | 06:43 |
| Spaztic_One | maxwellian, yeah... lol, knowing what I'm using would probably be most beneficial | 06:44 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Hardly ever hurts. :) | 06:44 |

| Spaztic_One | Maxwellian, I'm a guy. :) | 06:49 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One, Okay, now we know what kind of computer you have, and your gender. | 06:49 |

| Spaztic_One | lucid | 06:50 |
| Spaztic_One | upgrade from karmic 9.10 | 06:50 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Okay, try this: lsmod | grep ath | 06:50 |
| Spaztic_One | Reason why it was an upgrade is because I had burnt a CD a while back and saw no reason to make a new one | 06:51 |
| Spaztic_One | Maxwellian, ok, its listing a few things | 06:51 |
| joshx12 | Hi all. I've just installed likewise-open here at work so I can use ubuntu at work. Everything works 100%. I just can't login now as my local user ("josh") or ("root"). Does anyone know why this is? i can log in as the AD user, just can't access my local user(s) to add the user to the sudo list. | 06:52 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Okay, from here on I'm just guessing, since my problem has always been that the module wasn't listed. But if you like, we can keep trying? | 06:52 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: At least till someone more knowledgeable decides to jump in... :) | 06:52 |
| Spaztic_One | Maxwellian, Sure, why not? so, what do I do with the information that was dumped by the lsmod? | 06:53 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Can you tell me what they are? | 06:54 |

| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Thanks, I'm Googling around. What have you tried? | 06:58 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: So I can skip it. :) | 06:58 |
| Spaztic_One | checked a couple of blacklistings, not much else. I don't understand all of the workings of ubuntu as of yet. | 07:00 |
| Spaztic_One | I did add one or two blacklistings, one was already in one of the other files as i discovered later | 07:00 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: So from a fresh install, it wasn't working. Then you tried to blacklist a couple of things. What did you try to blacklist? | 07:01 |

| seidos | kickingintender, what kernel? what happened? | 07:05 |
| ActionParsnip | kickingintender: hold shift at boot, use the old kernel and log a bug | 07:05 |
| kickingintender | nothing worked | 07:05 |
| Spaztic_One | maxwellian, ath_hal and ath_pci, one of which was already listed in one of the other .conf files | 07:05 |
| OsamaK | Other than /home/.ecryptfs/user/.Private, where does ecryptfs save encrypted files? (My Desktop -not the whole /home- is encrypted and I cannot find where to mount it) | 07:06 |
| kickingintender | it said ubuntu is running in safe graphical mode | 07:06 |
| pondera | hey im having an issue. i have a mackbook with refit install , leopard as primary os and ubuntu as secondary, i tried to install another os and it messed up my grub thingy, now i get a grub command line screen when i try to load ubuntu | 07:06 |
| ActionParsnip | kickingintender: you can edit /etc/default/grub to set the default as the older kernel | 07:06 |
| ActionParsnip | kickingintender: you will need to install your video driver for that kernel then | 07:06 |
| kickingintender | i just swept the ubuntu installation drive now i will do clean instlal | 07:06 |

| kickingintender | somebody in this channel told me that i can safely remove the cups and ubuntu desktop pakage and i did that | 07:07 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Just saw an interesting post, what happens when you type rfkill list | 07:07 |
| ashiswin | i did and i used the guide but it didnt work | 07:08 |
| kickingintender | i dont have printer so i removed cups and its dependencies and some cups related packages is it safe to remove them? | 07:08 |
| ashiswin | and modem_modeswitch said founddevice then it says could not find device | 07:08 |
| Spaztic_One | phy0: wireless lan soft blocked, no, hardblocked, yes | 07:08 |

| ashiswin | seriously... noone has had the problem? | 07:12 |
| DocPlatypus | okay | 07:12 |
| kickingintender | should i download xchat? | 07:12 |
| DocPlatypus | I'm getting a message "Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!" when booting the kernel in 10.04 | 07:12 |
| _rwc | Any have a clue to why my wireless worked prior to kernel 2.6.32-23-generic #37? | 07:12 |
| DocPlatypus | the kernel from 9.10 still boots but I can't get a GUI | 07:12 |
| ActionParsnip | kickingintender: it can do with config. If you prefer xchat then use that | 07:13 |
| kickingintender | wht configuration? | 07:13 |
| Spaztic_One | maxwellian: phy0: wireless lan soft blocked, no, hardblocked, yes | 07:14 |
| ActionParsnip | _rwc: log a bug. My wifi had issues 2 kernels ago in maverick but has been solved now :) | 07:14 |
| === netrat is now known as UNRrat | ||
| ActionParsnip | kickingintender: your config in empathy. I'm sure you can add the server / channel etc | 07:14 |
| maxwellian | Okay, so I've seen this issue on a couple of posts. Apparently their is some kind of issue with your wireless switch. | 07:15 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Heh, there. | 07:15 |
| kickingintender | ActionParsnip is it safe to remove printer related cups from software center | 07:16 |
| Spaztic_One | Is it a physical issue that would mean replacing the switch, or some configuration that can be fixed more easily? | 07:16 |
| kickingintender | i dont have printer | 07:16 |
| kickingintender | or how do i tell ubuntu that i dont have printer | 07:16 |
| _rwc | could anyone walk me through some obvious steps to correct my wireless? | 07:16 |
| ActionParsnip | kickingintender: could try it, see what else it wants to remove with it. Its very light and if you grab a printer later it may cause issues | 07:17 |
| ActionParsnip | _rwc: sudo lshw -C network ,websearch for the product line. | 07:17 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Did your wireless work on 9.10? | 07:17 |
| Spaztic_One | Don't belive so. I think that may have been when the light was red, though I didn't really attempt anything at that point | 07:18 |
| kickingintender | i think updating the kernel broke my system | 07:18 |
| ActionParsnip | kickingintender: then use the previous one | 07:18 |
| kickingintender | i tried but both are not booting | 07:19 |
| _rwc | ActionParsnip: Switching back to the prior kernel doesn't appear to fix my wireless issue. | 07:19 |
| ActionParsnip | kickingintender: then edit the boot and watch the kernel messages rather than the stupid splash getting in the way. Can reveal good stuff | 07:19 |
| kickingintender | i just filed a bug | 07:20 |
| ActionParsnip | _rwc: then i'd set it up from scratch using guides online. May make it jump into life | 07:20 |
| hopeless8009 | I need some help getting my Ubuntu 10.4 server on my wireless network. I want it to get is IP address form the DHCP server in my router | 07:20 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Did you say you have a boot disc of some kind? Preferably 9.10? | 07:21 |
| ActionParsnip | hopeless8009: that is the default behaviour | 07:21 |
| HandyGandy | I'm running karmic upgraded to lucid. Can I can KDE 4.5 backports right now? | 07:21 |
| kickingintender | HandyGandy ur using kubntu or ubuntu | 07:22 |
| hopeless8009 | ActionParsnip: I dont thank i set it up right | 07:22 |
| HandyGandy | kickingintender: Ubuntu. | 07:22 |
| Spaztic_One | maxwellian, yes, its either 9.10 or 9.4. I can put my hands on it in just a minute and find out | 07:22 |
| HandyGandy | I isntalled KDE. | 07:23 |
| ActionParsnip | hopeless8009: then check you have an ip with: ifconfig | 07:23 |
| === plop is now known as plop_ag | ||
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: This is strange, but someone reported that by booting into Jaunty (I'm guessing Karmic would work), they were able to push switch and it removed the hard block. | 07:24 |
| hopeless8009 | ActionParsnip, wlan0 shows no IP | 07:24 |
| ActionParsnip | HandyGandy: http://www.manast.com/2010/05/31/upgrade-kde-4-5-rc-1-kubuntu-lucid-10-04/ use at your own risk | 07:24 |
| ashiswin | thanks | 07:24 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: It won't hurt anything to try, but this is voodoo at this point. I have no idea why this would work. | 07:24 |
| ashiswin | now it works:) | 07:24 |
| kickingintender | quit | 07:24 |
| Spaztic_One | maxwellian, Yeah, I think I remember hearing about numerous people having issues where if they disabled their wireless in windows and rebooted into ubuntu, it was disabled and couldn't be enabled without returning to windows | 07:24 |
| ActionParsnip | hopeless8009: ok then run: sudo iwlist scan ,do it show APs? | 07:24 |
| Spaztic_One | and that was with laptops in general, not any one in specific | 07:25 |
| deltree_ | so i have disabled my login and taken anything that says keyring out of my startup programs, installed and configured pamkeyring and still must enter password at startup. any ideas? | 07:25 |
| Spaztic_One | Maxwellian, either way, I will try that and we shall see. Be back in a couple minutes. | 07:25 |
| hopeless8009 | ActionParsnip, I can see my home wireless network | 07:25 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Good luck! | 07:25 |
| Spaztic_One | Thanks! | 07:26 |
| qwrfwgdvs | hi lol | 07:26 |
| ActionParsnip | hopeless8009: ok that's good. The hard bit has been done. Ok scroll up, what device found the APs. Its name (wlan0, ath0, eth1 are common) | 07:26 |
| hopeless8009 | ActionParsnip, Wlan0 | 07:27 |
| ActionParsnip | deltree_: if you set a blank password for the key you don't get bothered for that you know. | 07:27 |
| ActionParsnip | hopeless8009: ok cool, if you single click the tool in the top right for wireless, do you see your SSID? | 07:28 |
| hopeless8009 | ActionParsnip, im on a server i have no GUI | 07:28 |
| ActionParsnip | hopeless8009: I see. Then you will need iwconfig | 07:28 |
| deltree_ | aha! | 07:28 |
| maxwellian | hopeless8009: Ha, hardcore. | 07:28 |
| ActionParsnip | hopeless8009: or you can use /etc/network/interfaces | 07:29 |
| ActionParsnip | maxwellian: its quite simple really. People just think it is as its not all pretty and clicky | 07:29 |
| hopeless8009 | ActionParsnip, im not sure what that is my main concern is getting it online right now | 07:29 |
| ActionParsnip | hopeless8009: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/setting-up-an-network-interfaces-file/ | 07:30 |
| hopeless8009 | ActionParsnip, your great help so far | 07:30 |
| maxwellian | ActionParsnip: No, I use CLI for most things. I just like hearing about other people doing it. :) | 07:30 |
| greezmunkey | ActionParsnip: what about dhclient Wlan0 ?? | 07:31 |
| ActionParsnip | greezmunkey: its not associated | 07:31 |
| hopeless8009 | ActionParsnip, what is this? | 07:31 |
| greezmunkey | ActionParsnip: I just jumped in, I should have followed the thread back first ;) | 07:31 |
| ActionParsnip | maxwellian: me too. I use the interfaces file most times so network manager apps aren't needed | 07:32 |
| maxwellian | ActionParsnip: Well that's more hardcore than me. I'll have to read that link. :) | 07:32 |
| greezmunkey | ActionParsnip is all pretty and clicky... | 07:33 |
| ActionParsnip | maxwellian: makes system boot faster and use less ram (no nm stinking the place up) | 07:33 |
| maxwellian | ActionParsnip: Not only that, but I've had problems where iwlist scan would show my networks, but the nm wouldn't see them. | 07:33 |

| prince_jammys | patman023: how much coffee? | 07:42 |
| hopeless8009 | greezmunkey, ok i didit | 07:43 |
| Spaztic_One | maxwellian, that is, unfortunately, correct. | 07:43 |
| greezmunkey | hopeless8009: type ls - do you see your copy? | 07:43 |
| Spaztic_One | Do you think that maybe I need to see if there is something I can do in the BIOS? | 07:43 |
| greezmunkey | hopeless8009: lowercase LS | 07:43 |
| patman023 | prince_jammys: enough - basically shes a coworker, every break for the near future (and it's Tim Hortons) | 07:44 |
| hopeless8009 | greezmunkey, yes | 07:44 |
| prince_jammys | patman023: anyway, that should run fine on a lighter system, like xubuntu or fluxbox, or others. | 07:44 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Rats. I was banking on it working this time. :\ | 07:44 |
| deltree_ | it auto logs in but asks me to unlock the default keyring although i changed the default password to nothing and installed something called debkeyring that did nothing | 07:44 |
| greezmunkey | hopeless8009: now sudo touch testfile | 07:44 |
| patman023 | prince_jammys: xfce better than gnome i assume you mean? | 07:44 |
| prince_jammys | patman023: yes | 07:44 |
| abhi_nav | hi | 07:45 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Okay, well at least we can be pretty sure that the problem is with that switch. | 07:45 |
| otak | patman023: hey i have a c.2000 pos dell | 07:45 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Or rather, how the kernel is dealing with that switch. | 07:45 |
| hopeless8009 | greezmunkey, ok i did that | 07:45 |
| Spaztic_One | Ah, so it is likely fixable, though it may be a pain in the neck... | 07:45 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: If it's showing as a hard kill, that means the kernel thanks the kill switch is on. | 07:45 |
| prince_jammys | patman023: you may test out both if you have the drive space. maybe gnome isn't so bad there. xubuntu should be fine. fluxbox would definitely be just fine. | 07:45 |
| Spaztic_One | Is there some command to change that? | 07:46 |
| greezmunkey | hopeless8009: what your'e going to do next is edit the testfile you just made to get familiar with vi, ok.. type sudo vi testfile (you will see an empty file) | 07:46 |
| patman023 | been waiting 45 minutes for "sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop " to finish | 07:46 |
| Spaztic_One | also, since I don't need to be on 9.10, I'm going to switch back to lucid in a minute | 07:46 |
| patman023 | ah just done | 07:46 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Not from what I can see...the SOFT kill can be changed with software, but the hard kill can't, apparently. | 07:46 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Go ahead, I'll check some more on Google. | 07:47 |
| greezmunkey | hopeless8009: do you have a notebook handy, and something to write with, if not please get them. | 07:47 |
| hopeless8009 | greezmunkey, ok i see a bunch of blue dashes along the left side | 07:47 |

| greezmunkey | hopeless8009: my bad, I should have anticipated that...you are almost there. | 07:53 |
| Guest66625 | hi im having an issue with my video card and loading the xserver, its an ATI Radeon HD 4200 | 07:54 |
| deltree_ | i assume gnome? its ubuntu 10.04 desktop? does that help? | 07:54 |
| prince_jammys | Guest66625: describe the whole problem and someone might be able to help. | 07:54 |
| greezmunkey | hopeless8009: ok, you can create an empty file, open it in vi, insert characters, and save and exit. just two more commands, and you are set! | 07:54 |
| patman023 | hrm @ docp / otak / p_jammys i get a Lubuntu Netboox automatically in login screen settings this may prove to be workable | 07:54 |
| greezmunkey | hopeless8009: ok, three | 07:54 |
| odb|fidel | deltree_: if you dont know what you are using - logout and check the session type at login screen of (most likely gdm) | 07:55 |
| shubbar | after i downloaded a package source with apt-get source, where can i find it? | 07:55 |
| greezmunkey | hopeless8009: did the file save and exit? | 07:55 |
| deltree_ | ok logging out | 07:55 |
| maxwellian | shubbar: Should have ended up in the current directory? | 07:55 |
| maxwellian | shubbar: Why are you downloading source anyway? | 07:56 |
| hopeless8009 | greezmunkey, im trying to remember | 07:56 |
| greezmunkey | hopeless8009: are you out of vi now? | 07:56 |
| Guest66625 | the fglxr is not finding a matching device, meaning i can not load xserver, cause my ATI RAdeon HD 4200 is not on their list i guess | 07:56 |
| shubbar | maxwellian, to make a modification and compile it | 07:56 |
| prince_jammys | Guest66625: you may need to use the open-source 'radeon' driver. | 07:57 |
| deltree_ | yeah, it wouldnt let me log back in. | 07:57 |
| odb|fidel | deltree_: ? | 07:57 |
| hopeless8009 | greezmunkey, when i did :wq! it says press enter or type command to continue | 07:57 |
| deltree_ | failure to initiate authentication something something it displayed very fats | 07:58 |
| greezmunkey | hopeless8009: press enter | 07:58 |
| Jordan_U | hopeless8009: For a very good tutorial on vi/vim run the command "vimtutor". You may also prefer to go with an easier terminal based text editor like "nano" (or a GUI one liek gedit). | 07:58 |
| razz1 | obd, I followed this link http://www.videolan.org/vlc/download-ubuntu.html, but I could not find VLC in the repositories. so followed this link http://www.unixmen.com/news-today/1037-vlc-110-is-released-install-via-ppa, I could install. Not sure why I could not get it from the repositories, all the repositories were checked. | 07:58 |
| hopeless8009 | greezmunkey, there is more can't open file for writting | 07:58 |
| odb|fidel | deltree_: i bet there isnt written SOMETHING ;) | 07:58 |
| deltree_ | sorry about my noobery | 07:58 |
| jzacsh | any know how to check the version of flash running ?? | 07:58 |
| jzacsh | i have no idea how | 07:58 |
| patman023 | razzl: try looking for the VLC PPA | 07:58 |
| prince_jammys | jzacsh: in firefox, you may look at tools->addons | 07:59 |
| maxwellian | shubbar: Cool, if that works, let me know how you did it. I've struggled with figuring out which packages have been applied and whatnot. | 07:59 |
| patman023 | on launchpad that is | 07:59 |
| maxwellian | shubbar: Er, patches. | 07:59 |
| Spaztic_One | Maxwellian: Hey, tried looking through the BIOS menus, couldn't find a switch there. | 07:59 |
| greezmunkey | hopeless8009: hit ESC, then :wq!, and enter - see what happens | 07:59 |
| jzacsh | prince_jammys: no, sorry | 07:59 |
| otak | hopeless8009: the q! means quit without applying changes. you cannot change it unless you are root. | 07:59 |
| jzacsh | i meant -- how do you check if you're running the old 64 bit | 07:59 |
| jzacsh | i want to make sure i went back to 32 bit flash | 07:59 |
| deltree_ | it doesnt affect my system performance to have to unlock that default keyring every time i login its just redundant and unnessasary for me | 08:00 |
| razz1 | patman, I used this PPA - http://ppa.launchpad.net/c-korn/vlc/ubuntu | 08:00 |
| hopeless8009 | greezmunkey, ok im out i understand | 08:00 |
| plitter | is there anyone here who has managed to configure empathy for diamondcard? | 08:00 |
| patman023 | razzl: ah my bad | 08:00 |
| deltree_ | a simple option to disable it would have been nice | 08:00 |
| shubbar | maxwellian, i m trying to add fribidi support to mencoder | 08:00 |
| deltree_ | seems like a reasonable enough option | 08:00 |
| deltree_ | can i delete my default keyring? | 08:00 |
| jzacsh | flash 32 bit vs 64 -- how do you tell, anyone? | 08:01 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Hrm...there's a bug report about rfkill, but I don't know if it's the same issue. Hasn't been resolved, unfortunately. | 08:01 |
| greezmunkey | hopeless8009: ok, a bit rocky, but that's ok. In vi you have to be deliberate in what you do. Now, sudo vi testfile - I'll show you the last stuff you need to know, remember to write stuff down! | 08:01 |
| Spyzer | hi all, my laptop is 3 years old now. I am currently running Ubuntu 10.04 with latest updates and upgrades. But sometimes ubuntu hangs like it just turns into a screenshot. The entire desktop freezes and there is no responsiveness from keyboard or mouse, no matter what i do. What exactly is happening??? | 08:01 |
| patman023 | jzacsh, easy- 64 barely works | 08:01 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: I'm not entirely convinced that this couldn't be a driver issue. | 08:01 |
| odb|fidel | Spyzer: 'top' or 'htop' might help searching the reason | 08:02 |
| odb|fidel | at least it should show you if its a specific process eating all your resources or not | 08:02 |
| Spaztic_One | Maxwellian Aye, I was slightly surprised when it found no proprietary drivers available for my system. | 08:02 |
| jzacsh | patman023: well, something more definitive | 08:02 |
| greezmunkey | hopeless8009: your file should be open, and ready for editing | 08:03 |
| Spyzer | but when i am hanged i don't think i can even TYPE htop ?? | 08:03 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: I've seen other posts about people replacing ath5k with the madwifi driver. Problems there seem to be with WPA authentication, and apparently having to compile from source. | 08:03 |
| Spyzer | can this be related to heating problems ?? | 08:04 |
| odb|fidel | Spyzer: can you login via ssh at that point? | 08:04 |
| hopeless8009 | greezmunkey, no im sorry im stuck in the test file it says e481 no rage allowed | 08:04 |
| hopeless8009 | greezmunkey, sorry bro im really trying | 08:04 |
| odb|fidel | Spyzer: the real problem is - your error-description is far away from being detailed - so its wild guessing at that point ;) | 08:04 |
| Spyzer | ohh okay i'll try to be more detailed, the next time the error happens :) | 08:05 |
| greezmunkey | hopeless8009: alright...ESC :wq! ENTER, and call it jake. | 08:05 |
| patman023 | Spyzer, does it fade out grey? | 08:06 |
| Spyzer | nopes | 08:06 |
| Spyzer | its like the entire screen becomes a screenshot | 08:06 |
| === karthik is now known as karthi | ||
| greezmunkey | hopeless8009: are you out? | 08:07 |
| patman023 | so in essence the system freezes. any self recovery? | 08:07 |
| odb|fidel | Spyzer: can you login via ssh at that point? i.e. from another comp | 08:07 |
| lorenzosu | Hi all is there a way to search for files on a samba share mounted through gvfs? | 08:07 |
| hopeless8009 | greezmunkey, ok yes now im out man this is pain but i really wnatt his thing online | 08:07 |
| abhi_nav | hi abhinav_singh | 08:07 |
| greezmunkey | hopeless8009: try this instead, sudo pico testfile - see what happens | 08:08 |
| Spyzer | i.e the only thing i haven't tried will do that as soon as the error reoccurs | 08:08 |
| odb|fidel | Spyzer: that should at least show if its just the gui environment or the entire box | 08:08 |
| otak | Spyzer: Is it a screensaver fadeout. what happens if you touch nothing when it fades? | 08:08 |
| hopeless8009 | greezmunkey, looks like a diffrent editor opened | 08:08 |
| === _rwc is now known as _rwc_afk | ||
| Spyzer | no its not a screensaver fadeout | 08:09 |
| Spaztic_One | So, maxwellian, what do you suggest I do? | 08:09 |
| greezmunkey | hopeless8009: play with it, type some characters, move around with your arrow keys, then ctrl+x, watch the status line at the bottom for clues on how to proceed. | 08:09 |
| riz0n | Hey guys, I am using Ubuntu-Server. For some reason, when switching to 10.2 LTS, my identd server has failed to respond to IDENT requests. Can someone recommend a good daemon to install? Thanks so much!!! | 08:10 |

| cyberjorge | hi, is BIND preinstalled with ubuntu? or with lampp/ | 08:10 |
| greezmunkey | hopeless8009: can you browse the web? | 08:10 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Oh, here's another thing. Do your function keys have little pictures on them? | 08:11 |
| hopeless8009 | greezmunkey, yes i can on this computer im talkign to you on | 08:11 |
| Spaztic_One | They do | 08:11 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: On my machine, I have a switch, but also there's a function key to control the wireless for some reason. | 08:11 |
| greezmunkey | hopeless8009: ok, I'll send you a link in a sec... | 08:11 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Do you see one with an antenna on it or something? | 08:11 |
| Spaztic_One | I do not, no. | 08:12 |
| greezmunkey | hopeless8009: get this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/458187/ | 08:12 |
| Spaztic_One | One that says www, but that opens up a new tab in firefox, or a new file browser window | 08:12 |
| yo | how to enable login screen in ubuntu 9.04 | 08:12 |
| shubbar | maxwellian, fribid check is not coming when configure | 08:12 |
| Spaztic_One | it depends on if I'm focused on Fx or on the desktop | 08:13 |
| hopeless8009 | greezmunkey, ok i see it | 08:13 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Nothing on there that could possibly be related to wireless? | 08:13 |
| otak | Spyzer: You can start top in a shell: ctrl-alt-f1:login:top:ctrl-alt-f7. If X freezes you can still switch back to the shell. | 08:14 |
| maxwellian | shubbar: What does "not coming" mean? And by "configure", do you mean you ran ./configure? | 08:14 |
| greezmunkey | hopeless8009: now, sudo pico interfaces - compare to the pastebin, remember the paste is only an example. | 08:14 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Otherwise we're sort of back to square one, unfortunately. :( | 08:14 |
| Spaztic_One | maxwellian, there are, in order from F1 to F12 (and scroll lock, pause, insert, delete and then going down the side, home, page up and page down) | 08:14 |
| hopeless8009 | greezmunkey, ok so what do i do form here | 08:15 |
| greezmunkey | hopeless8009: you know what wireless interface you have, the interface name? | 08:15 |
| hopeless8009 | greezmunkey, wlan0 | 08:16 |
| Spaztic_One | a question mark, a printer, www, monitor switch, moon (standby?) a lock, brightness up, brightness down, play/pause, stop, previous, next, num lock, break, print screen, sys rq (which acts as print screen for some reason) mute, volume up, and volume down | 08:16 |

| Keal | drothli, you still having trouble with 800x480? | 08:16 |
| greezmunkey | hopeless8009: ok, does your wifi router hand out ip addresses automatically? | 08:16 |
| shubbar | maxwellian, " Checking for fribidi with charsets ... no" when running ./configure ... i added that to debian/rules but seems its not added | 08:16 |

| hopeless8009 | greezmunkey, yes i have it set up for DHCP | 08:17 |
| hopeless8009 | greezmunkey, do i change static to DHCP | 08:17 |
| Spaztic_One | There is also some button immediately above the mouse touch pad, but the icon depicted for it is that of the touch pad, and I haven't figured out what it might do other than go from white to orange when I press it. | 08:18 |
| greezmunkey | hopeless8009: create an entry in the interfaces file that follows lines 12-14, make the appropriate changes based on your interface id, and SSID | 08:18 |
| shubbar | maxwellian, i got the fix from this bug report https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mplayer/+bug/556200 | 08:18 |

| razz1 | anyone using the latest nvidia driver - 256, any issues? | 08:19 |
| maxwellian | shubbar: Sorry man, like I said, I don't know how to modify a package. You are probably missing a build dependency. You will probably get more help at #ubuntu-motu on irc.freenode.net | 08:20 |

| txwsqk | what are the display manager in ubuntu ? except gdm / kdm | 08:24 |
| Spaztic_One | Maxwellian, I'm wondering, you say it may be drivers? Should I try going to ndiswrapper, or seeing if I can get a driver from compaq or what have you? | 08:24 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | mneptok, you're an op here, you must be very knowledgeable, could you help with my nvidia kernel module problem? | 08:24 |
| greezmunkey | hopeless8009: maybe, later - let's get it working first with dhcp. Did you change and save the interfaces file? | 08:24 |
| seren | you can join room with /j #channel (channel is your channel) :) | 08:24 |
| mneptok | mrwizeguy1983: probably not, as i do not use nVidia proprietary drivers. | 08:25 |
| panoet | seren, thx :) | 08:25 |
| hopeless8009 | greezmunkey, | 08:25 |
| hopeless8009 | greezmunkey, no | 08:25 |

| mneptok | panoet: use "/join #freenode" as your first test. ask IRC related questions there, please. :) | 08:25 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | mneptok, is there another way to get full support for an nvidia gt 330m than using the proprietary driver? | 08:25 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Those two things would likely be the same. You would get a driver from them, and use ndiswrapper to get it loaded into the kernel. | 08:25 |
| txwsqk | nobody help me | 08:26 |
| txwsqk | what are the display manager in ubuntu ? except gdm / kdm | 08:26 |
| mneptok | mrwizeguy1983: i haven't the least idea if Nouveau supports that chipset | 08:26 |

| patman023 | NeverCast, nope | 08:38 |
| indus | NeverCast, why would you want to do that | 08:38 |
| otak | patman023: preload runs in the background keeping ram topped up with things you'll probably need soon. | 08:38 |

| Spaztic_One | maxwellian, would that have had a visible result? | 08:43 |
| yo | vizzy: where is file stored of login screen | 08:43 |
| hopeless8009 | greezmunkey, ok now what? | 08:43 |
| greezmunkey | hopeless8009: it isn't really necessary, but does make it easier to read. | 08:43 |
| yo | can i change that | 08:43 |
| Spaztic_One | Holy crap, it worked | 08:44 |
| greezmunkey | hopeless8009: ctrl+x, Y, (enter) | 08:44 |

| Spaztic_One | Something did | 08:44 |
| hopeless8009 | greezmunkey, ok now what? | 08:44 |
| Spaztic_One | I did sudo modprobe -r ath5k; sudo modprobe ath5k | 08:44 |
| Spaztic_One | and it asked for my sudo word | 08:44 |
| greezmunkey | hopeless8009: sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart | 08:45 |
| vizzy | yo, file of login screen? thats not a file, this is an application, and there are several, kdm, xdm, gdm etc pp | 08:45 |
| j_ | Hi, is there a way to check which App(s) uses the HDD, the HDD light looks always ON | 08:45 |
| Spaztic_One | I gave it, it put me back at the command line | 08:45 |
| greezmunkey | hopeless8009: write that down ;) | 08:45 |
| Spaztic_One | I did the rfkill list | 08:45 |
| Spaztic_One | and it had the exact same result. I tried pressing the button, nothing happened, I entered it again | 08:45 |
| Spaztic_One | entered sudo modprobe -r ath5k; sudo modprobe ath5k that is | 08:45 |
| NeverCast | indus, That is for nokia, and I need drivers for my phone to install the Serial interface | 08:45 |

| hopeless8009 | greezmunkey, ok its doing something | 08:46 |
| indus | NeverCast, bit files? | 08:46 |
| greezmunkey | hopeless8009: give it a few seconds for the squirrels to do their thing, and type ifconfig to see if you recieved an address. | 08:46 |
| yo | vizzy:, we can modify that file to enable login screen at startup | 08:46 |
| Spaztic_One | But yeah, it is not hard blocked anymore, and the button is now orange which would normally mean that it is disabled. | 08:46 |

| Spaztic_One | Maxwellian, Yeah, well, its my computer, therefore it must have some character (as if linux wasn't enough lol) | 08:47 |

| Spaztic_One | but all of them are teh same color intensity | 09:01 |
| indus | chanti, it shouldnt be difficult, generally i have seen audio is easy to sort out | 09:01 |
| indus | chanti, that above link should be fine | 09:01 |
| indus | chanti, i be back in 1 hour | 09:01 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Click on the bars. Does a list come down of the various networks? | 09:01 |
| hopeless8009 | greezmunkey, ok i did that | 09:01 |
| chanti | indus: ok | 09:01 |
| greezmunkey | hopeless8009: did you write donw the networking restart command I gave you earlier? | 09:02 |
| Spaztic_One | Just one, mine. Don't know if my neighbors have theirs on atm or not. | 09:02 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: And does it say you're connected? | 09:02 |
| hopeless8009 | yes | 09:02 |
| alkisg | Kunin: use "tab" to autocomplete the names - mine has a single "l" so I wasn't seeing your replies. Was that an upgrade from a previous ubuntu version? | 09:02 |
| hopeless8009 | greezmunkey, yes | 09:02 |
| patman023 | nickee, ccsm to configure compiz | 09:02 |
| Spaztic_One | It says available, and I have the option to disconnect | 09:02 |
| hopeless8009 | greezmunkey, yes | 09:03 |
| greezmunkey | hopeless8009: issue that again, then ass soon as you enter the password, flip over to alt+F2 to see what it's doing. | 09:03 |
| maxwellian | Okay, try right clicking on the bars. Do you see an option for "Connection information"? | 09:03 |
| greezmunkey | s/ass/as | 09:03 |

| patman023 | lol | 09:03 |
| vizzy | a standard option for linux desktopns should root-tailing all logfiles on the desktop ;) | 09:03 |
| Kunin | alkisg, no, it was a restore (luckly made right before the drive failed) | 09:04 |
| Spaztic_One | yes | 09:04 |
| hopeless8009 | greezmunkey, ok | 09:04 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Whatever you do, don't click that. | 09:04 |
| alkisg | Kunin: yes, but that installation that you're trying to install, is it a clean 10.04 or has it been upgraded from e.g. 9.10 to 10.04? | 09:04 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: No, just kidding. :) Click that. | 09:04 |
| Spaztic_One | er.... | 09:04 |
| Spaztic_One | ok | 09:04 |
| Spaztic_One | lol | 09:04 |
| vizzy | lol | 09:04 |
| greezmunkey | hopeless8009: a play by play would be nice...I'm just sayin' | 09:04 |
| nickee | patman023: thanks, you think compiz is what I'm thinking about? | 09:05 |
| Spaztic_One | Um, yeah, it is saying that my IP is different than what out LAN is... | 09:05 |
| Kunin | alkisg, 9.10, the drive failed while I was trying upgrade to 10.04 | 09:05 |
| Spaztic_One | Though the eth0 one is correct | 09:05 |
| hopeless8009 | greezmunkey, b44: eth0 : powering down phy | 09:05 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: What do you mean, different than what our LAN is? | 09:05 |
| Kunin | alkisg, the backup was made just before I attempted the upgrade (learned the hard way) | 09:05 |
| alkisg | Kunin: by default, 9.10 installations get grub2. If you first installed to 9.04 and then upgraded to 9.10 (and then tried to upgrade to 10.04 and failed), you'd have grub legacy. So it once was a clean 9.10 installation? | 09:05 |
| hopeless8009 | greezmunkey, there is already a pid file /var/run/dhclient.wlan0.pid with pid 1410 | 09:06 |

| Kunin | alkisg, to be honest, I can't remember... I believe it was a clean install of 9.10, but either way it did have grub2, and it did boot into grub but for some reason cannot find any of the img files (has the list, but gives error 15) | 09:07 |

| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Normally the wireless router assigns an IP address for you. It's common to get 192.x.x.x or 10.x.x.x | 09:08 |
| brunsgenus | in case you dont know what I am talking about that is the link | 09:08 |
| Spaztic_One | Maxwellian, yes, but we have our router configured to use the 114.114.114 domain | 09:09 |
| heroxbd | Hello. Can I use wubi to install ubuntu-10.10-alpha? | 09:09 |
| Spaztic_One | not the 192.whatever the linksys default is | 09:09 |
| brunsgenus | Does anyone know :/ | 09:09 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Okay, I don't know much about router configuration, I pretty much take them as they come... | 09:09 |
| Spaztic_One | lol | 09:09 |
| Kunin | alkisg, hmm, I think I see a problem... it was an upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10, using ext3 but this time I formatted it as exy4 | 09:09 |
| greezmunkey | Spaztic_One: that's public address space, kind of dangerous. | 09:10 |
| hopeless8009 | greezmunkey, ok from what i can under stand is it says DHCPDiscover on wlan0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 3 then it does the same thing a few time one with diffrent ports and intervals no ipv6 rounter present then name server cannot be used , reason : temporary failure of the name resolution | 09:10 |
| Spaztic_One | Basically, its getting what I think is a bogus IP | 09:10 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: 192.*.*.* is a private network... | 09:10 |
| alkisg | Kunin: if it was an upgrade, it probably has grub legacy, so you should follow the method for grub legacy recovery instead | 09:10 |
| hopeless8009 | greezmunkey, im on a satalite connection but evey thign seems to be working | 09:10 |
| hopeless8009 | greezmunkey, shoud i try and reboot | 09:11 |
| otak | Spaztic_One: whois that address gives a chinese server. | 09:11 |
| chanti | afer upgrade ubuntu to 10.0 version, gnome panel some times not responding, date also not display in panel after killing panel process, any solution | 09:11 |
| Kunin | alkisg hmm, thought I had done the grub2 upgrade though | 09:11 |
| greezmunkey | hopeless8009: did you see anything realated to negotiating with the AP, like connecting, disconnecting associating, dissassociating? | 09:11 |
| Spaztic_One | Which address, my local, or the one that my wireless thinks it has? | 09:11 |
| jayant | hey guys.. i got windows 7 starter edition and it wont let me install ubuntu in the free spapce of my harddisk... | 09:11 |
| Kunin | alkisg, the grep you asked for gives me grub and grub-common (which is labeled as version 2) | 09:12 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: 114.*.*.* is not reserved for private networks. | 09:12 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: From what little I know about networking, I'm amazed you're able to use the Internet at all. | 09:12 |
| Spaztic_One | Er, we've used that as our private network for years, like, since we first got a router | 09:13 |
| otak | Spaztic_One: 114.114.anyting | 09:13 |
| hopeless8009 | greezmunkey, no | 09:13 |
| greezmunkey | hopeless8009: you could try a reboot, it couldn't hurt at this point. | 09:13 |
| alkisg | Kunin: grub currently on Lucid is 0.97-29ubuntu60 ==> grub legacy | 09:13 |
| Kunin | alkisg, grub-install -v says GNU GRUB 0.97 | 09:13 |
| brunsgenus | does anyone know where i can get the UMBRA GUI | 09:14 |
| alkisg | Kunin: right, so follow the legacy how-to | 09:14 |
| Kunin | alkisg, hmm, guess I didn't upgrade to grub2 then... ok | 09:14 |
| Gorlist | morning, im running "ppa:ubuntu-audio-dev/ppa" to resolve the audio problem in skype, however they just updated the package twice in a row and both updates seemed to have regressed. Unfortunately I forgot to lock the package - how can I do a back date? | 09:14 |
| pseud0cod3r | is there any good alternative for idm?? | 09:14 |
| hopeless8009 | greezmunkey, how much dammage have i done | 09:14 |

| hopeless8009 | greezmunkey, i have a back up of the interfaces file | 09:14 |
| Mjateznik | Hello, could someone please help me get my wireless back up'n'running? | 09:15 |
| greezmunkey | hopeless8009: none, you are good. The rest of the issues will have to be taken one at a time. Your interfaces file is totally cool. You did good. | 09:15 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: I don't know enough about it to know whether that was ever supposed to work or not. :) Any reason why you use that space? | 09:15 |
| brunsgenus | does anyone know where i can get the UMBRA GUI | 09:15 |
| Spaztic_One | 114 is our street address lol | 09:15 |
| Kunin | alkisg, to restore legacy do I need to use an older version of ubuntu livecd? | 09:16 |
| hopeless8009 | greezmunkey, ok it looks like the server is booting up | 09:16 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Okay... :) | 09:16 |

| Spaztic_One | Eh, I need to go do some things and get a couple hours of sleep | 09:22 |
| Spaztic_One | its almost 4:30 AM | 09:22 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Okay, well make sure you remember how to unload/reload the module. | 09:23 |

| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Ideally you wouldn't have to do that manually, but we didn't get far enough into it. | 09:23 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: sudo modprobe -r ath5k; sudo modprobe ath5k; | 09:23 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: That unloads and then loads your ath5k driver. | 09:23 |
| Spaztic_One | Oh, yeah, well, that only made it appear to work... >.> | 09:24 |
| djmccormick | i've just installed a new hard drive for my /home and copied over all the files. i now have it mounted successfully at /home but i'm wondering how i can delete the files from my old /home out of the main hard drive | 09:24 |
| Mjateznik | please help me activate my wireless. | 09:24 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Getting an IP address from the router is pretty close to being fixed. :) | 09:24 |
| Mjateznik | djmccordmick: why won't a standard delete work? | 09:24 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: At this point, we're doing regular old network troubleshooting, not so much driver stuff. | 09:24 |
| djmccormick | Mjateznik: i'm sure it will, but now that it's not mounted at /home i was just wondering where i can find the files | 09:24 |
| Night_Elf | In the logfile of my bind9 server I see log entries like: named[32516]: connection refused resolving 'apt.modmyi.com/A/IN': 67.220.215.3#53 When I do a "host apt.modmyi.com" it provides an ip address. | 09:25 |
| vizzy | Spaztic_One, oh, using ath5k and wlan? | 09:25 |
| Night_Elf | What is this thing in the logfile then ? | 09:25 |
| maxwellian | vizzy: Yeah vizzy, you have some insight?? | 09:25 |
| Spaztic_One | Hmm, well, if you think we're close.... | 09:25 |
| vizzy | Spaztic_One, watch out the logfiles! if your connection is bad, you may also see some errors there, like cannot set frequency for scan etc | 09:25 |
| maxwellian | vizzy: He has to go, but we've been struggling with it. | 09:25 |
| Spaztic_One | I should go, yes, but if we are close to resolving this, I will stay | 09:26 |
| vizzy | maxwellian, i have an thinkpad t42p with ath5k, and know those errors and problems well | 09:26 |
| Spaztic_One | I'll just deal with the repercussions of not going to bed later >.< | 09:26 |
| vizzy | at first you should sit near your router to avoid wireless lan cable problems :) | 09:26 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Well with the people currently here, what may be one simple command could take hours to discover. | 09:27 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: So "close" is sort of relative. | 09:27 |
| Spaztic_One | What do you mean, wireless and cable problems? | 09:27 |
| vu1kan | so, the other day my up key got bound to 'take a screenshot' all on it's own; I checked the config utility and it said that function was still bound to my print key, but when I'd press that key nothing would happen. Now, it fixed itself after I logged out, but what I'd like to know is how that happened, so i can prevent it's recurrence. | 09:27 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: If you come back tomorrow explaining that you are able to connect to the router, but you can't do anything with the connection, someone will probably be able to guide you. | 09:28 |
| vizzy | Spaztic_One, empfangsprobleme :) i mean if you sit 300meters from your router, and thick walls between you and the router, you may have wlan cable problems :) | 09:28 |
| djmccormick | if i've mounted a new drive over /home where can i find my original /home to delete it? | 09:28 |
| vizzy | so, in this case you maybe can connect to the router, but never get a right connection | 09:28 |
| vizzy | this is indicated by message sin the logfiles saying something like: can not set scan frequency to xxxxmhz or so | 09:29 |
| Spaztic_One | Ah, well, i'm resonably close... within er... probably under 10 meters | 09:29 |
| Spaztic_One | and where are these logs so I can check? | 09:29 |
| vizzy | but sorry, i dont know exactly what the problem is, i didnt follow your discussion | 09:29 |
| vizzy | Spaztic_One, ok, so open a terminal, alt+f2 and type xterm | 09:30 |
| vizzy | (alt+f2 at least works in kde.... i dont know about gnome) | 09:30 |
| Spaztic_One | done, | 09:30 |
| Spaztic_One | and it does work | 09:30 |
| Spaztic_One | for future reference | 09:30 |
| vizzy | Spaztic_One, now enter: tail -f /var/log/messages /var/log/debug | 09:30 |
| Mjateznik | can someone with a working wireless check their etc/network/interfaces and tell me what says there? Thanks. | 09:31 |
| vizzy | this gives you thelast few lines of these two logfiles | 09:31 |
| Kunin | alkisg, thanks, I figured it out... menu.lst was using UUID and I just had to change that... now it's booting, let's see if it... YES, it worked! | 09:31 |
| maxwellian | Mjateznik: Most people are probably using a program to manage their connection, not that file. | 09:31 |
| vizzy | (i'm on lenny, maybe ubuntu doesnt have /var/log/debug) | 09:31 |
| vizzy | Spaztic_One, then try to connect to your router and watch out the messages | 09:32 |
| vizzy | for reference :) type in: ls -al /var/log/ and then press TAB TAB | 09:32 |
| anode | hey, i'm trying to install kde-l10n-ja and I'm getting errors about tex-common and texlive-binaries.. is this something that has been happening commonly? | 09:32 |
| alkisg | Kunin: it's easier to use tune2fs to change the UUID than to edit menu.lst and fstab ==> for next time ;) | 09:32 |
| Kunin | alkisg, thanks! | 09:32 |
| vizzy | Spaztic_One, this gives a list of all files located in /var/log, the most common location to store logfiles | 09:32 |
| alkisg | np | 09:32 |
| vizzy | Spaztic_One, tab tab is for autocompletition :) | 09:33 |

| vizzy | Spaztic_One, did the connection work in the past? | 09:36 |
| Spaztic_One | I just got this computer in the last 12 hours | 09:37 |
| vizzy | ah ok, new setup | 09:37 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Have you ever had wireless working on any machine on this network? | 09:37 |
| Spaztic_One | I got it off of ebay with no OS, and everyting was tested and ok | 09:37 |
| Spaztic_One | and yes, my desktop is online | 09:37 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: With wireless? | 09:38 |
| vizzy | ah! Spaztic_One check your router and look if hardware access is enabled, i mean MAC address verification or how it is called | 09:38 |
| Spaztic_One | yes | 09:38 |
| Spaztic_One | its signal is poor, but its also at the opposite end of the house as the router | 09:38 |
| vizzy | Spaztic_One, maybe you have to enter your wireless mac to the router | 09:38 |
| skynet1994 | Hello the worldbuntu | 09:38 |
| Spaztic_One | the MAC of my laptop? | 09:38 |
| vizzy | yes, you got 2 nics, eth0 and wlan0 or wmaster 0 | 09:38 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: vizzy's talking about a feature that is usually disabled by default. Do you remember setting up MAC address filtering on your router? | 09:39 |
| vizzy | the mac is written on the backside of your computer | 09:39 |
| Spaztic_One | I remember seeing that it was not enabled | 09:39 |
| vizzy | ok, so if disabled there is no problem with that | 09:39 |
| vizzy | just an idea ;) | 09:39 |
| Spaztic_One | yeah | 09:39 |
| Spaztic_One | yep, and a good one. | 09:39 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: It's not a bad idea, since it's a new machine. If it were enabled, you would have been blocked for sure. | 09:39 |
| Spaztic_One | Yeah | 09:40 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Is your desktop on right now? How easy is it to find out the IP address on it? | 09:40 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Oh, and is it running Windows? | 09:40 |
| vizzy | maxwellian, in parrallel? hmmm, yeah, somttimes windoz screws up hardware | 09:41 |
| Spaztic_One | Desktop is running windows, and its IP should be either 114.114.114.101 or maybe .100 or .102 | 09:41 |
| MadRobot | It seems I have a problem with the public key of my Ubuntu repository links: http://pastebin.com/MsjmmRU4 How do I fix that? | 09:41 |
| maxwellian | vizzy: I just want to see what kind of address the Windows machine is getting. | 09:41 |
| Spaztic_One | I can go do an ipconfig and get exactly what it is if you would like | 09:42 |
| vizzy | Spaztic_One, can you paste a full oogoutput, or relevant lines to pastebin.com please | 09:42 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: You know for sure it starts with 114 and not 10 or 192? | 09:42 |

| linux | dumont: mhmm, i know - just wanted to know if a high-end model would work | 09:52 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | personally, i'm only an average user of ubuntu so it took a few months for my laptop to work near perfectly | 09:52 |
| dumont | linux excuse me? rebuilt a dell? that's like masturbating to a trashcan | 09:53 |
| linux | dumont: lol it was all i had at the time | 09:53 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | lol dumont that's funny but not very nice | 09:53 |
| dumont | linux any computer works | 09:53 |
| Spaztic_One | http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/38GTaAe9 | 09:53 |
| vizzy | Spaztic_One, can you paste the output of the following command to pastebin? tail /var/log/messages; ifconfig; route | 09:53 |
| oCean_ | dumont: watch your language in this channel | 09:53 |

| dumont | how do I get unixtime for year 2161 jan 1st 00:00:00? | 09:53 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | personally i prefer sony asus or (ibm/lenovo) dumont | 09:54 |
| linux | dumont/wizeguy: so the AMD 64bit quad cores aren't support very well? | 09:54 |
| dumont | could I do it with a date? but I don't want to change computer bios date/running time to do i | 09:54 |
| dumont | it | 09:54 |
| linux | *phenoms | 09:54 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | linux the processor is supported VERY well | 09:54 |
| sam555 | hello all! | 09:54 |
| linux | wizeguy: hmm i think that high one would work very well. most everything on it is already supported, just newer or higher end | 09:55 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | i use the i7 720qm and it works amazing, it was the audio, hdmi, wireless card, and video card and screen i had to force to work linux | 09:55 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: It looks like you don't have a default route. | 09:55 |
| sam555 | i'm having trouble getting my nic to work using ubuntu server | 09:55 |
| linux | wizeguy: just want a second opinion | 09:55 |
| vizzy | Spaztic_One, ok, forget about eth0, for me eth0 and wlan0 are i the same network ;) | 09:55 |
| sam555 | i just switched out the motherboard | 09:55 |
| linux | but ill be back :D wifey time | 09:55 |
| sam555 | this is the second new motherboard I've tried and when I ifconfig, it only list vm IPs and local ip | 09:55 |
| Spaztic_One | vizzy: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/KJPjMN2c | 09:55 |
| dumont | how do I get unixtime for year 2161 jan 1st 00:00:00? cmon... how do you get a unixtime stamp for a specific date? | 09:55 |
| stix | Guys, I have just installed ubuntu 10.04 amd64, but my system shows as a i686 - isn't that wrong? | 09:56 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | linux i'm far from the most knowledgeable on here, a second opinion is a good idea. i think you could make it work, but i'd bet money it will take a good bit of work to do | 09:56 |
| chanti | indus: not solved | 09:56 |
| vizzy | Spaztic_One, hmmm | 09:57 |
| Spaztic_One | Also, maxwellian, will having a default route make it difficult to join other networks, such as public access points, or my school's wireless? | 09:57 |
| otak | Cork: checkout: http://docstore.mik.ua/orelly/networking_2ndEd/ssh/ch09_01.htm | 09:57 |
| oCean_ | dumont: -d for specific date %s for unixtime | 09:57 |
| vizzy | Spaztic_One, another 'idea': is your router set to a,b, or g network? maybe have 300mbit option enabled? | 09:57 |
| Spaztic_One | It should either be g or n | 09:58 |
| dumont | oCean_ but wouldn't -d change my system time? | 09:58 |
| Cork | otak: thx | 09:58 |
| vizzy | i had funny problems when switching on 300,mbit otion on my router, or using different networks | 09:58 |
| maxwellian | vizzy: The pastebin output shows that he does not have a route to the router, I believe. | 09:58 |
| oCean_ | dumont: no, it's just about printing a date, not setting | 09:58 |
| dumont | ok thanks | 09:58 |
| oCean_ | dumont: date -d "2161-1-1 00:00:00" +%s something like this | 09:58 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: I'll bet you dollars to donuts that if you went to a public library right now, it would work no problem. | 09:59 |
| Spaztic_One | hahaha | 09:59 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | looking for someone a bit more knowledgeable about ubuntu that can help me with patching a kernel | 09:59 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: The problem is that your laptop is expecting a router with an address like 10.0.0.1 | 09:59 |
| Spaztic_One | thats... weird | 09:59 |
| maxwellian | Well that's default. | 10:00 |
| dumont | it says invalid date | 10:00 |
| maxwellian | Actually, 10.0.0.1 or 192.168.1.1 | 10:00 |
| dumont | does someone have a 64 bit syste? could they run this command? "date -d "2161-1-1 00:00:00" +%s" | 10:00 |
| Spaztic_One | I've never heard of one starting with 10 though | 10:00 |
| maxwellian | Something like those. | 10:00 |
| Cork | otak: i've already gotten that far, the problem is when i try to access someting like sftp:/server/home/cork/ in nautilus stated remotly i get "Could not find "/home/cork/seft:/server/home/cork" | 10:00 |
| maxwellian | Mine does. :) | 10:00 |
| Spaztic_One | the 192 yes, but... yeah... | 10:00 |
| Cork | *sftp | 10:00 |
| Spaztic_One | ah, lol | 10:00 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | sure, why not dumont i'll do it, i run 64 bit | 10:00 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | 6027454800 <----what it gave back dumont | 10:01 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: So if you're not going to change your router to use a real private network range, then you have to try to configure your card to use the wacko street address one. :) | 10:01 |
| dumont | thank you very much! | 10:01 |
| Spaztic_One | be back in a sec | 10:01 |
| anode | hey, i'm trying to install kde-l10n-ja and I'm getting errors about tex-common and texlive-binaries.. is this something that has been happening commonly? | 10:01 |
| vizzy | Spaztic_One, maybe your router is configured to put wlan in its own private network (again guessing a lot) | 10:01 |
| dumont | my unix time stamp goes up to only 2038 on 32 bit system :) | 10:01 |
| anode | actually, anything I install is giving me errors about tex | 10:01 |
| dumont | thank you very much!!!!!!!!!! 2nd time :) | 10:01 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | dumont, i have no idea why you wanted to know but glad to help lol | 10:02 |
| maxwellian | vizzy: He's 100% sure his Windows machine is in the same network as the router. I have no idea how that happened though. | 10:02 |
| vizzy | maxwellian, ok :) | 10:02 |
| Spaztic_One | hmmm? | 10:03 |
| valkure | bot??? | 10:03 |
| valkure | hello | 10:04 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: I know it's late, but do you mind going over and getting the info from the Windows box? | 10:04 |
| Trikks | Could someone help me get iTunes installed on Ubuntu? | 10:04 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | maxwellian, do you know how to patch a kernel to support something additional? | 10:04 |
| Spaztic_One | What info? | 10:05 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | Trikks, as best i know that would have to be done using wine | 10:05 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: We need IP address, broadcast address, subnet mask, and default route, if they're available. | 10:05 |
| ddavids | hello all | 10:05 |
| Spaztic_One | alright, be back in a moment | 10:05 |
| maxwellian | mrwizeguy1983: No way dude, sorry. :P | 10:06 |
| kraut | moin | 10:06 |
| vizzy | moin | 10:06 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | lol you're joking maxwellian ? | 10:06 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | somehow i get the feeling it's something simple i just haven't had to do before... | 10:06 |
| maxwellian | mrwizeguy1983: No, I've never compiled the kernel. | 10:06 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | oh, well the documentation implies i don't have to | 10:07 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | under the documentation, section for reasons NOT to compile a custom kernel, it said this: You merely need to compile a special driver. For this, you only need to install the linux-headers packages. | 10:07 |
| maxwellian | mrwizeguy1983: If you patch the kernel, you have to compile it. Otherwise the patch doesn't do anything. | 10:07 |
| otak | Trikks: have you tried rhythmbox? | 10:08 |
| nunners42 | Does anyone have any experience of 10.4 Lucid crashing regularly? I've installed it about 2 weeks ago, and can't get it stable. When it crashes the who thing freezes. Nothing in logs, and no regularity of what it could be. I've been raising it on the forum (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=9537321) but no luck so far... | 10:08 |
| Trikks | The thing is, I have an iPhone :-/ | 10:08 |
| maxwellian | mrwizeguy1983: Sorry, again, I've never done anything like that. | 10:08 |
| Trikks | Not technically by choice, either. | 10:08 |
| Trikks | However, I do love the little thing. ^.^ | 10:08 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | maxwellian, if nothing else you made me feel better about not knowing how to do it lol | 10:08 |
| vizzy | nunners42, maybe run memorytest | 10:08 |
| eoke | Trikks: Most people here aren't going to hold an iPhone against you, RhythmBox will certainly talk to iPods so it's worth giving it a try if you just want to transfer Music. | 10:09 |
| sam555 | how does one restart the network in ubuntu? | 10:09 |
| Spaztic_Two | Hey, vizzy and maxwellian, on my windows box | 10:09 |
| sam555 | what's the command? | 10:09 |
| Spaztic_Two | http://pastebin.com/mv0TG2dw | 10:09 |
| Trikks | Oh, It can do that?? | 10:09 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_Two: Heh, welcome again. :) | 10:09 |
| Trikks | You're pullin' my leg. | 10:09 |
| Spaztic_Two | Haha, yea | 10:09 |
| eoke | Trikks: It works out of the box with my Partners Nano | 10:09 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | sam555, what do you mean restart network? | 10:09 |
| nunners42 | vizzy: tried memory test, nothing found | 10:10 |
| Trikks | Well I'll give that a shot, Thank you Eoke. | 10:10 |
| sam555 | mrwizeguy1983: i found it, sorry to bother | 10:10 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | nm-applet is the name of the network manager in ubuntu sam555, you can kill it and restart it if it's acting up | 10:10 |
| eoke | Trikks: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PortableDevices/iPhone may be of interest to you. | 10:10 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | good call eoke, got a solution for me? lol | 10:11 |
| sam555 | mrwizeguy1983: i restarted, but eth0 is still not being recongnized | 10:11 |
| Trikks | Thank you, Eoke. | 10:11 |
| sam555 | i installed a new motherboard :( | 10:11 |
| Trikks | How do you repspond specifically to someone? | 10:11 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | sam555, has it worked at all? | 10:11 |
| ubu_ | hi ppl out the a need some simple suport plz :) | 10:11 |
| ubu_ | i have bluetooth issus | 10:11 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_Two: Okay, now right-click on the bars up there and go to edit connections, if it's there. | 10:11 |
| Trikks | I literally just installed Ubuntu. I'm a big newb at this. ^.^ | 10:11 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | it could be a driver issue if it never has worked sam555 | 10:11 |
| sam555 | mrwizeguy1983: it worked with the old motherboard | 10:11 |
| sam555 | this is the 2nd mb I've tried :( | 10:12 |
| Spaztic_Two | Maxwellian, ok, running to other computer | 10:12 |
| maxwellian | Ha, sorry!! :P | 10:12 |
| eoke | Sorry mrwizeguy1983 I missed your original question as some one seemed to already be assisting you. | 10:12 |
| ubu_ | i cant send anything from my phone to the laptop acer spire one | 10:12 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | eoke, what i need is to patch a kernel directly from the headers | 10:12 |
| sam555 | mrwizeguy1983: its the same type of mb of the same time of computer, so the mac should only be the difference | 10:12 |
| ubu_ | do any one now how to fix this issus ? | 10:12 |
| eoke | mrwizeguy1983: I've never done that myself sorry. | 10:13 |
| ubu_ | bluetooth "ubuntu 10.04 | 10:13 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | sam555, something probably needs to be forced to flush old data, it's above my linux tech level, ask eoke? | 10:13 |
| Spaztic_One | OK, got it open, maxwellian | 10:13 |
| eoke | ubu_: Have you looked at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup | 10:13 |
| sam555 | eoke: do you know how to "flush" info out of a the OS so that my new motherboard can work with my old hard drive? | 10:13 |
| maxwellian | Okay, now click the wireless tab, and select your home network. | 10:13 |
| nunners42 | vizzy: also tried new installs... thinking maybe need to go backwards in versions and try something a little older? | 10:14 |
| ubu_ | eoke no but tnx | 10:14 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | sam555, if you were using windows i'd tell you to go into safe mode and remove the driver and reinstall, but i don't know how to do the equivalent on ubuntu | 10:14 |
| Spaztic_One | and then? | 10:14 |
| sam555 | mrwizeguy1983: gotcha | 10:15 |
| sam555 | yeah, if I was in windows, it would have just worked with a new mac address | 10:15 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | lol well, you'd be surprised how much windows 98 and windows xp got hung up over stupid stuff | 10:15 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | a driver being fully removed in safe mode cleared everything sam555 so it would have worked lol | 10:15 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Click edit, then go to the IP4 settings tab. | 10:16 |
| sam555 | mrwizeguy1983: but I don't know why I would need a new driver since it's the same exact motherboard as the other? | 10:16 |
| Spaztic_One | am I to change the "method"? | 10:16 |
| ubu_ | eoke my problem is that the blue man works well the thing i have issus is that i can´t send anything like pic from lg ku990 phone to the bild in bluethooth acerspier mini | 10:16 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Yeah, we're gonna try manual. | 10:16 |
| Spaztic_One | do I need to add something then? | 10:17 |
| Spaztic_One | lol | 10:17 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Yes. :) | 10:17 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | sam555, it's not the driver, it's the fact of it hanging on to the old info (probably) which would have been fixed on WINDOWS by clearing the driver, ubuntu works different and i don't know how to clear such data from ubuntu | 10:17 |
| ubu_ | eoco sorry for my eng but hope u understand :) | 10:17 |
| swamprat | Hello | 10:17 |
| sam555 | mrwizeguy1983: oh, i see | 10:17 |
| Gryllida | Hi | 10:17 |
| tasas | Hola | 10:17 |
| Spaztic_One | is netmask the subnetmask? | 10:18 |
| Na | เล่นยังไง | 10:18 |
| Spaztic_One | or does that matter? | 10:18 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | one of the pros in here probably knows a command to flush old network data and/or reset pci devices sam555, your issue is probably a one command fix i just don't know said command | 10:18 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Yes. | 10:18 |
| swamprat | How to get evoultion close to try and not to exit(Ubuntu 10.04)? | 10:18 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: But you need to pick a unique address for the first box. | 10:18 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Not the same one as the other computer. | 10:18 |
| sam555 | mrwizeguy1983: np, i'm also asking people on linux | 10:18 |
| Spaztic_One | ah, I thought that was the address of my router | 10:19 |
| Spaztic_One | ok | 10:19 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: For example, 114.114.114.150 | 10:19 |
| nunners42 | Can anyone recommend an slightly old version of ubuntu for installing on a server that's pretty robust? Tried lucid 10.04, but keeps crashing and want to see if it is Lucid or hardware... | 10:19 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | i fix windows pc's for money and going to be a network admin when dome with classes, but i only use linux for recreation and not as good at it, sorry sam555 | 10:19 |
| Spaztic_One | yea, and then the 255 for the net mask | 10:19 |
| Spaztic_One | what for the gateway? | 10:19 |
| swamprat | nunners42: try 8.04 LTS | 10:20 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: That's where you put the address of the router. | 10:20 |
| Spaztic_One | aaah | 10:20 |
| otak | !debian nunners42 | 10:20 |

| sam555 | so apparently, I have eth2! | 10:21 |
| sam555 | but no IP on eth2 | 10:21 |
| sam555 | any ideas how to set that up? | 10:21 |
| otak | nunners42: it just seems more stable on older hardware | 10:21 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Hopefully not. We'll cross that bridge in a minute. :P | 10:21 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | lol, think it kept your old mac address as eth0 and eth2 is the new one sam555 ? | 10:21 |
| nunners42 | otak: thing is it's brand new hardware....! I'll give it a go though.... | 10:22 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Oh, sorry, I forgot to look at the Windows stuff again. Yeah, just put the router address again for DNS. | 10:22 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: That's what your windows machine is doing, apparently. | 10:22 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | sam555, it's just a guess, but try right clicking the network icon on the system tray and going to edit connections, then edit eth2 and see what you can find, make sure it's set to connect automatically etc. | 10:23 |
| swamprat | How to minimize evolution to tray but not to close it? (ubuntu 10.04) | 10:23 |

| Trikks | I'm having trouble with YouTube videos, I can't seem to press pause or play. | 10:24 |
| Trikks | Can anyone help? | 10:24 |
| IConrad01 | Trikks: Tried http://www.youtube.com/html5 ? | 10:24 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | Trikks, do you know how to use synaptic? | 10:25 |
| nunners42 | otak: ok - see what you mean... I haven't actually configured much on the hardware side - in fact I think the only thing I've done is change the IP... as I said about, the motherboard has display/sound built in, so not sure what else I could configure... | 10:25 |
| eoke | Trikks: If there not on youtube.com itself I some times have to right click and select "Watch on youtube" | 10:25 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | make sure you have flash player installed Trikks | 10:25 |
| plop_ag | sam555, you want to change the name of eth2 ? or set the network ? | 10:25 |
| IConrad01 | Trikks: Alternatively -- http://www.webupd8.org/2009/11/fix-mouse-clicks-not-working-in-flash.html | 10:25 |
| plop_ag | sam555, udev now store some rules to match hardware and assign network interface to ethX | 10:26 |
| plop_ag | sam555, look into /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules | 10:26 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | plop_ag, you know how to patch a kernel? | 10:26 |
| swamprat | IConrad01: Thanks it works | 10:26 |
| IConrad01 | swamprat: :-) | 10:27 |
| IConrad01 | ... Is anyone in here familiar with GRUB2 and booting *.iso files via it? | 10:27 |
| IConrad01 | Specifically, Syslinux-based LiveCD (PCRegedit) | 10:27 |
| Trikks | Wait, How do I apply this Linux Firefox patch? | 10:27 |
| IConrad01 | I'm trying to add an option to my multibooting USB drive | 10:27 |
| plop_ag | mrwizeguy1983, a lot of people know how to do that, and there is a lot of odc available on this subjet | 10:28 |
| IConrad01 | Trikks: Just execute the commands that website tells you to. | 10:28 |
| Spaztic_One | hmmm | 10:28 |
| IConrad01 | It'll give you mouseclicks back. | 10:28 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: What happened? | 10:28 |
| sam555 | plop_ag: is it ok to just use eth2? | 10:28 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | plop_ag, it says in the documentation i don't have to compile a custom kernel, just use the headers provided, how do i do that? it didn't have a link for that | 10:28 |
| Trikks | The WebM enabled version, correct? | 10:28 |
| Spaztic_One | Unplugged the cable and tried it, but it didn't work, apparently | 10:28 |

| ddavids | hello all | 10:29 |
| Gryllida | hi | 10:29 |
| Spaztic_One | also, for a brief moment, I saw both my network and my neighbor's, as well as the one I predefined | 10:29 |
| plop_ag | sam555, yes you can, it is not really important, it is just in case you want to assign another name (i didnt understand you first question) | 10:29 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Where did you see them? | 10:29 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: And we're talking about three networks? | 10:29 |
| sam555 | plop_ag: np, I was just trying to get out | 10:29 |
| Ego_Proctor | I have a problem with my sound. Every time I restart my computer, or logout and log back it the sound does not work properly. The volume control looks like it is on full blast, but if I turn it up it goes back to zero and then fills up and then the sound works. | 10:30 |
| plop_ag | mrwizeguy1983, really depends on what you want to do | 10:30 |
| Spaztic_One | I saw them in the list of available networks, and yes, three, though one owas the predefined one I have been using thus far | 10:30 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | plop_ag, a very simple .patch file to make my built in mic work | 10:30 |
| IConrad01 | plop_ag: I'm already booting three *.iso files. | 10:30 |
| Ego_Proctor | some times I have to mute and then unmute the sound and then turn it up for it to work. | 10:30 |
| IConrad01 | It's the Syslinux boot disk I'm having issues with. | 10:30 |

| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: What do you mean, predefined? You should be editing properties for your home wireless network, not creating a new one. | 10:31 |
| Spaztic_One | There wasn't one hours ago when I first started trying to get my computer online | 10:32 |
| Spaztic_One | there is one now | 10:32 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: So were you editing the one for your actual home network? | 10:32 |
| ddavids | pls i need assistance with theses errors that show in the terminal whenever i try to save something using gedit error: line 53471: bad flag vector alias | 10:32 |
| ddavids | error: line 53473: bad flag alias index: 0 | 10:32 |
| IConrad01 | plop_ag: For example -- It has no vmlinuz file and the initrd file is hidden inside of another file... | 10:33 |
| IConrad01 | Is it just not supportable, or... ? | 10:33 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | ddavids, what are you trying to edit with gedit? | 10:33 |
| Spaztic_One | 10 minutes ago, there was only one entry in the network connections window, and it was the one I had made initially | 10:33 |
| hypn0 | in 10.04 i came across an odd thing, i booted up, normally (previously i had removed quiet and splash from boot commands), so what happened was there was a forced check on drive cause it had been booted 30 or 35 times (i can remember exactly), the odd thing was there was no other output like in previous versions, there was a spinning text character. at first i thought it had stopped booting, and there was an error, it was only because i had read the previous | 10:33 |
| hypn0 | output, before screen went blank, and cause i know 'a forced check' takes time, that i didnt panic. a newbie would probably thing it had crashed and restart it using button. just thought i'd tell u abt it. | 10:33 |
| ddavids | anything i try at all | 10:33 |
| Spaztic_One | now there are two, the one that has been there, as well as an "auto" one that has recently appeared | 10:33 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | ddavids, it could be something about the file you're editing or maybe gedit is experiencing problems, try editing with nano or openoffice and see if that works | 10:34 |
| ddavids | mrwizeguys1983, anything i save | 10:34 |
| plop_ag | mrwizeguy1983, you have to get the kernel source, and apply your patch, and rebuild the module for you kernel | 10:34 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | plop_ag, the documentation said i don't have to do it that way, i've built kernels before and it was a pain | 10:35 |
| plop_ag | really depends, you can do it like dkms | 10:35 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | i was not good at it, got it wrong even from the guide a few times plop_ag, it requires more patience than i have....you sure it can't be done from the headers like the documentation implies? | 10:35 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: But all the manual editing we just did...did you do it for your actual home network? With the name of your home network? | 10:35 |
| IConrad01 | mrwizeguy1983: ddavids: Using OpenOffice to edit config files or pure linux-text files is a recipe for disaster. | 10:35 |
| Spaztic_One | yes | 10:36 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | IConrad01, yes clearly, but i think he's trying to edit other files | 10:36 |
| Spaztic_One | and the new one also has the name, but it has the word "auto" in front of it | 10:36 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | personally i use nano often IConrad01 | 10:36 |
| maxwellian | ddavids: Apparently this is a known bug. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gedit/+bug/583911 | 10:36 |
| plop_ag | mrwizeguy1983, yes, dkms only use headers from the kernel | 10:36 |
| IConrad01 | mrwizeguy1983: Vi(m) is winning me over. | 10:36 |
| plop_ag | IConrad01, sorry i dont know if it is supported | 10:37 |
| andeeeuk | has anyone updated to the new linux kernal and found that their ati drivers are no longer working | 10:37 |
| andeeeuk | ? | 10:37 |
| IConrad01 | plop_ag: Any ideas on where I could even check for such a thing? | 10:37 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Hmm...auto in that context usually means auto connect. | 10:37 |
| Spaztic_One | ah | 10:37 |
| Spaztic_One | well, both have auto connect checked | 10:38 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: If you go in to edit them, which one has your changes? | 10:38 |
| plop_ag | IConrad01, you can't extract your vmlinuz ? | 10:38 |
| IConrad01 | plop_ag: There *isn't* one. | 10:38 |
| Spaztic_One | the one that does not have auto is how I set it, the other one is similar except that it has dhcp instead of manual | 10:39 |
| plop_ag | IConrad01, what did you try to boot ? | 10:39 |
| IConrad01 | PCRegedit. | 10:39 |
| andeeeuk | I have updated to the new linux kernal and the ati drivers are no longer working, has anyone else had this problem? | 10:39 |
| IConrad01 | It's Syslinux based. | 10:39 |
| Spaztic_One | and it says infrastructer instead of adhoc | 10:39 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | andeeeuk, did you happen to install the update to linux-firmware around the same time? that one gave me hell | 10:40 |
| andeeeuk | yeah | 10:40 |
| IConrad01 | Actually, it has both an isolinux and a syslinux *.cfg | 10:40 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One, okay go into the one that says auto and uncheck the automatically connect part. | 10:40 |
| andeeeuk | i think that was in the same update | 10:40 |
| erUSUL | andeeeuk: probably you have to reinstall the drivers | 10:40 |
| Spaztic_One | done | 10:40 |
| plop_ag | IConrad01, and this tool is hidden in the iso ? | 10:40 |
| DocPlatypus | okay... I'll try again. Got a system I just now tried to upgrade to 10.04 and when I boot the new kernel I get "Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!" old kernel will boot into text mode but not X | 10:41 |
| maxwellian | Now the other one that you've customized is supposed to be set to automatically connect? | 10:41 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | andeeeuk, that's probably what did it. i had to force the installation of it to make it overwrite a certain file it couldn't automatically, then purge the graphics drivers i had, then install new ones. might be the same for you, might not | 10:41 |
| andeeeuk | I have tried reinstalling the drivers but was having problema | 10:41 |
| IConrad01 | plop_ag: ... PCRegedit *is* the *.iso | 10:41 |
| Spaztic_One | correct | 10:41 |
| andeeeuk | lol | 10:41 |
| plop_ag | IConrad01, menuentry "PCRegedit" { linux16 /pcregedit iso | 10:41 |
| IConrad01 | No dice. | 10:41 |
| andeeeuk | that sounds like a bit of a pain | 10:41 |
| DocPlatypus | it's a laptop with Intel GMA and I've tried i915.modeset=0 just now. that gets the old kernel where it tries to start X but the backlight just flickers on and off again about 20 times | 10:41 |
| andeeeuk | cheers for letting me know | 10:42 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Okay, in fact, just to get a little more control, uncheck auto for that one too. | 10:42 |
| andeeeuk | will have to go through all of that again | 10:42 |
| plop_ag | icarus901, http://syslinux.zytor.com/wiki/index.php/MEMDISK#GRUB2 | 10:42 |
| plop_ag | oups | 10:42 |
| IConrad01 | plop_ag: How could that work without a loopback entry or pointing to the kernel or initrd file? | 10:42 |
| Spaztic_One | ok | 10:42 |
| plop_ag | IConrad01, http://syslinux.zytor.com/wiki/index.php/MEMDISK#GRUB2 | 10:42 |
| otak | Spaztic_One: auto means use dhcp. thats what you want isn't it? | 10:43 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: No, there are two meanings of "auto". | 10:43 |
| mrwizeguy1983 | andeeeuk, yes it was a pain, a huge pain. some conflict with a medibuntu package made linux-firmware not install properly. did you get an error message when you did the update? if not it may not be the same problem | 10:43 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: One is to automatically connect to the network when it's in range. | 10:43 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: The other is to automatically configure the IP address and all that, instead of us specifying it manually. (This kind of auto is handled by DHCP.) | 10:44 |
| pims | hi | 10:44 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: So now you should have two versions of your home network listing, one that's setup for DHCP, and one that's set manual. | 10:44 |
| Spaztic_One | hmmm | 10:45 |
| IConrad01 | plop_ag: That link is **exclusively** for memdisk | 10:45 |
| umc-work | hey guys. I have a weird problem. I created an udev rule so my webcam is /dev/custom0, and it has root:video owners, but if I try streaming with vlc, I get a permission denied. if I plug it in a different usb and it gets name /dev/video0, streaming works fine, and it has the same permissions. any idea what could be the problem ? | 10:45 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: For BOTH, however, I want you to uncheck the checkbox that says "Connect automatically". | 10:45 |
| Spaztic_One | our router is set to assign network address to computers | 10:45 |
| IConrad01 | Unless you're suggesting chainloading from GRUB2 to memdisk and from there into PCRegedit... ? | 10:45 |
| pims | how can I do a word research in the terminal please ? I tail -f a log and I'd like to look for a word in the output | 10:45 |
| Spaztic_One | YEs, I did that | 10:45 |
| plop_ag | IConrad01, memedisk is a syslinux tool, like pcregedit | 10:45 |
| IConrad01 | plop_ag: No, PCRegedit is a full LiveCD distro that uses Syslinux to boot. | 10:46 |
| Spaztic_One | maaaaan.... its light outside | 10:46 |
| Spaztic_One | and its quarter til 6 | 10:46 |
| emily__ | hi guys, where do I need to look to find what error is causing my X to crash seemingly randomly? It's a clean Lucid install. | 10:46 |
| coz_ | Spaztic_One, mm I see that here too | 10:46 |
| IConrad01 | pims: Execute your normal command, but add this to the end: " | grep WordToLookFor " | 10:46 |
| coz_ | spartan07, you must be in same timezone | 10:46 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Bleh, sorry dude. We should probably call it a night. | 10:46 |
| IConrad01 | pims: Just the stuff inside the quotes -- not the quotes themselves. | 10:46 |
| coz_ | Spaztic_One, you must be in same timezone sorry spartan07 | 10:46 |
| Spaztic_One | lol | 10:46 |
| pims | IConrad01: will it work with live output coming every second ? | 10:47 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Even if we kept at it, it might not work. This is a network configuration problem, and I'm not very experienced at it. | 10:47 |
| Spaztic_One | ah | 10:47 |
| Spaztic_One | hmm | 10:47 |
| abhi_nav | Namaste!!! | 10:47 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: If you come back tomorrow, someone with more experience can hopefully help? | 10:47 |
| IConrad01 | pims: grep searches inputs for items and returns them. If the command is ongoing so will the output be. | 10:47 |
| IConrad01 | It's just piping one command's input to another. | 10:47 |
| pims | ok | 10:47 |
| Spaztic_One | well, you have any idea why i'm not seeing my neighbor's network anymore? | 10:47 |
| IConrad01 | Pipes are your friend. | 10:47 |
| pims | ok | 10:47 |
| andeeeuk | mrwizeguy1983 i didnt receive an error when i updated | 10:48 |
| IConrad01 | Pipes make l33ts of n00bs. lol | 10:48 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: When did that happen? | 10:48 |
| Viking667 | hey ho, all. | 10:48 |
| pims | IConrad01 > what if I want the entire output and just hightlight the words I look for ? doing | more or something ? | 10:48 |
| Spaztic_One | a while ago. I told you? | 10:48 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: I thought you said you were seeing there's, yours, and another one of yours with Auto in its name? | 10:48 |
| IConrad01 | pims: piping to more will just let you scroll through the outputs over time. I don't know about highlighting. | 10:49 |
| andeeeuk | graphics cards always seem to be a problem with kernal updates | 10:49 |
| Spaztic_One | I was | 10:49 |
| andeeeuk | well, with my experience | 10:49 |
| Spaztic_One | theirs is part of that set | 10:49 |
| pims | IConrad01, > you know, when in a man page you can type / and then the word you look for | 10:49 |
| Spaztic_One | currently, I'm only seeing the one I made by hand | 10:49 |
| erUSUL | emily__: /var/log/Xorg.0.log ~/.xsession-errors /var/log/messages | 10:49 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Ha, theirs, sorry. | 10:49 |
| IConrad01 | pims: That should work, yes. Same as with Vi | 10:49 |
| plop_ag | IConrad01, did you try : loopback loop /boot/file.iso chainloader (loop) ? | 10:49 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Hmm... | 10:49 |
| IConrad01 | plop_ag: You can't chainload into *.iso's in GRUB2. | 10:50 |
| pims | ok | 10:50 |
| pims | thanks | 10:50 |
| IConrad01 | plop_ag: That's a known bug in GRUB2. | 10:50 |
| DocPlatypus | okay... how do I get debugging output from gdm? | 10:50 |
| plop_ag | IConrad01, argh... | 10:50 |
| IConrad01 | plop_ag: Yeah. | 10:50 |
| Viking667 | can Grub2 actually boot into/onto a CD-rom? | 10:50 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: In the terminal type sudo iwlist scan | 10:50 |
| plop_ag | IConrad01, sounds bad.... | 10:50 |
| DocPlatypus | I've looked in /var/log/gdm/:0*.log and nothing there is immediately useful | 10:50 |
| Viking667 | (assuming it's bootable to begin with) | 10:51 |
| IConrad01 | Viking667: I've got a multibooting USB drive with 3 *.iso files and memtest on it. | 10:51 |
| DocPlatypus | I need to see exactly what it's trying to do that keeps failing | 10:51 |
| IConrad01 | Viking667: I'm trying to add PCRegedit to it. | 10:51 |
| emily__ | erUSUL, thanks, I'll give those a glance | 10:51 |
| DocPlatypus | anyone? | 10:51 |
| Viking667 | heh. Wossat then? | 10:51 |
| IConrad01 | Viking667: It's a Linux-based LiveCD meant to correct Windows registries. | 10:51 |
| Viking667 | aaaah. | 10:51 |
| Viking667 | what's being used on the key? syslinux? | 10:52 |
| IConrad01 | GRUB2. | 10:52 |
| Spaztic_One | maxwellian http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/2mqEZ0P4 | 10:52 |
| Viking667 | oh... | 10:52 |
| IConrad01 | The PCRegedit *.iso uses Syslinux. | 10:52 |
| IConrad01 | Ubuntu & Backtrack use Casper for their LiveCDs. | 10:52 |
| IConrad01 | I can boot Casper disks, but I can't figure out isolinux/syslinux | 10:52 |
| Viking667 | yeah, but you're more after how to boot those ISOs from an external grub, right? | 10:52 |
| IConrad01 | Viking667: Ubuntu & Backtrack 4 I've already got booting. It's just PCRegedit I'm after. | 10:53 |
| Viking667 | right. | 10:53 |
| abhi_nav | whats up guys? | 10:53 |
| IConrad01 | By the way -- Backtrack 4 won't boot if you have ext4 formatted drives on the machine. | 10:53 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: deconet is the name of your home network? | 10:53 |
| Viking667 | abhi_nav: jupiter? Or is that saturn? | 10:53 |
| IConrad01 | It just bitches at you constantly until you reboot. | 10:53 |
| Spaztic_One | yes | 10:53 |
| Viking667 | IConrad01: ugh. Nasty. | 10:53 |
| abhi_nav | Viking667, Saturn | 10:53 |
| IConrad01 | Viking667: Doesn't hurt anything, happily. | 10:54 |
| Viking667 | abhi_nav: I wasn't sure, I knew it was one of those two... | 10:54 |
| abhi_nav | Viking667, hmm | 10:54 |
| abhi_nav | though I dont know what you are taling aout | 10:54 |
| IConrad01 | ... | 10:54 |
| IConrad01 | Ubuntu's updating GRUB. | 10:54 |
| IConrad01 | It's like they know I'm talking about it. Creepy. <_< | 10:54 |
| Viking667 | abhi_nav: it's my night time at the moment, one really bright planet (not mars nor venus) has just about set if it hasn't already set. | 10:55 |
| abhi_nav | hmm | 10:55 |
| plop_ag | IConrad01, i mount loop the pcregedit image | 10:55 |
| plop_ag | IConrad01, there is a linux kernel in it | 10:55 |
| IConrad01 | plop_ag: Yes, there is. | 10:56 |
| IConrad01 | Called "Linux" | 10:56 |
| plop_ag | IConrad01, yes | 10:56 |
| IConrad01 | I tried that and it didn't work. What's your menuentry look like? | 10:56 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: I don't know why it's not listing the other two. I'm afraid I don't know what else to do. I just don't know enough about setting up these networks manually to be useful. I wish there were someone here who could help. :\ | 10:56 |
| Spaztic_One | ok | 10:56 |
| Spaztic_One | well | 10:56 |
| Spaztic_One | i'm going to go to bed and stuff | 10:57 |
| Spaztic_One | since i have to be up in like, 3 hours | 10:57 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Yup, sorry we didn't get further. | 10:57 |
| Spaztic_One | its ok | 10:57 |
| plop_ag | IConrad01, should be like you other linux ISO, just point to that file in the grub2's config | 10:57 |
| Spaztic_One | night all | 10:58 |
| maxwellian | If you don't think it would jack up your other computers too much, I would try putting your router back to the default address space. | 10:58 |
| IConrad01 | plop_ag: ... no, they can't look anything at all alike. | 10:58 |
| IConrad01 | That couldn't and shouldn't work. | 10:58 |
| IConrad01 | Especially since it's GRUB2's config I'm trying to create here. | 10:58 |
| IConrad01 | You said you mount looped for PCRegedit -- what is your menuentry? | 10:58 |
| IConrad01 | Can you pastebin or something it for me? | 10:59 |
| unimatrix | is there a way to control a remote system with synaptic or the USC? | 10:59 |
| plop_ag | IConrad01, i fouhd a lot of doc about boot an iso via grub2 ? they are all liyng ? | 10:59 |
| IConrad01 | unimatrix: SSH -X user@location | 10:59 |
| IConrad01 | unimatrix: From there, execute " sudo synaptic " | 10:59 |
| unimatrix | IConrad01 when the remote system doesn't use X | 10:59 |
| IConrad01 | unimatrix: Doesn't matter. The application is the client, and as long as *you* are running an X server you're set. | 11:00 |
| plop_ag | IConrad01, i didnt try to boot it with grub2, because i am currently using my workstation, the only box i have with grub2 :/ | 11:00 |
| IConrad01 | unimatrix: The application will use *your* X session to draw the windows with, IOW. | 11:00 |
| plop_ag | IConrad01, i mount it loop on my system, to check the content | 11:00 |
| unimatrix | IConrad01 i'm pretty sure this won't work | 11:00 |
| IConrad01 | unimatrix: I do it all the time. | 11:00 |
| hopeless8009 | i need help connecting my 10.4 server to our network though wireless | 11:01 |
| _vadim | Is it possible to make a script run on boot, before logins are allowed? Upstart insists in running it in parallel, which I explicitly do NOT want. The script must run until completion before logins are allowed, or X is started. | 11:01 |
| IConrad01 | unimatrix: It's specifically what X was designed to do. | 11:01 |
| unimatrix | IConrad01 yeah but you need it on both the client and the server | 11:01 |
| IConrad01 | unimatrix: No, you do not. | 11:01 |
| IConrad01 | unimatrix: I X-forward from my headless server in runlevel 3 *all the time*. | 11:01 |
| IConrad01 | unimatrix: X was **designed** for that. | 11:01 |
| IConrad01 | unimatrix: The worst that will happen is the application won't launch. Give it a whirl. :) I promise you'll enjoy the results. | 11:02 |
| unimatrix | IConrad01 well in worst case i still need synaptic installed on the remote machine | 11:02 |
| hopeless8009 | IConrad01, can you help me connect my sever to the network | 11:03 |
| IConrad01 | _vadim: You should, in theory, be able to add an init script. But that's hoary stuff. | 11:03 |
| IConrad01 | hopeless8009: Wireless connection, right? Do you need more than one internet connection running simultaneously on that server? | 11:03 |
| hopeless8009 | no | 11:03 |
| erUSUL | _vadim: ask in #upstart how to express the contraints of your init script | 11:03 |
| IConrad01 | hopeless8009: If not, wicd can be used from CLI. | 11:03 |
| hopeless8009 | IConrad01, no | 11:03 |
| hopeless8009 | IConrad01, how do i get that | 11:04 |
| hopeless8009 | IConrad01, and how do i install it on the server | 11:04 |
| unimatrix | IConrad01: (synaptic:22037): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: | 11:04 |
| IConrad01 | hopeless8009: If you can connect it over ethernet temporarily, you can install it that way. Alternatively you can pull the *.deb file manually and install it using dpkg -i | 11:04 |
| erUSUL | hopeless8009: /etc/network/interfaces can be used to configure wifi. | 11:04 |
| IConrad01 | unimatrix: Did you throw the -X flag? In capital? | 11:04 |
| erUSUL | hopeless8009: wpa? | 11:04 |
| unimatrix | IConrad01 yup | 11:04 |
| IConrad01 | unimatrix: ssh -X user@location | 11:05 |
| unimatrix | IConrad01 exactly like that | 11:05 |
| hopeless8009 | erUSUL, i've done that and yes its WPA | 11:05 |
| IConrad01 | Okay. And you executed "sudo synaptic" rather than opening up a root shell? | 11:05 |
| KnightStalker | I saw my postfix sending(receivng worked) not working so,I searched google and finded out to test host -t mx gmail.com for example,I saw it failing,any reasons? | 11:05 |
| hopeless8009 | IConrad01, I cant connect to eatheranet | 11:05 |
| hopeless8009 | IConrad01, how do i get it manualy | 11:06 |
| plop_ag | IConrad01, perhaps you can try to redo the cdrom ? make it bootable from grub2 ? | 11:06 |
| IConrad01 | hopeless8009: Does it have USB drives? Download the *.deb file elsewhere and drop via USB. | 11:06 |
| erUSUL | hopeless8009: http://wiki.debian.org/WiFi/HowToUse#wpasupplicant | 11:06 |
| IConrad01 | plop_ag: They don't provide source. And that's above my pay grade. | 11:06 |
| hopeless8009 | IConrad01, yes it has USB drive where do i get the .deb at | 11:06 |
| unimatrix | IConrad01 what do you mean opening a root shell? | 11:07 |
| IConrad01 | unimatrix: The X-forwarding only works for the session you're currently in. | 11:07 |
| IConrad01 | You do //NOT// need an X-server running on the device *forwarding* the X session to your remote machine, from which you perform the operation. | 11:08 |
| unimatrix | IConrad01 it gives the same error without sudo | 11:08 |
| IConrad01 | unimatrix: Is your local machine also headless? | 11:08 |
| unimatrix | IConrad01 you mean without X? no | 11:09 |
| IConrad01 | unimatrix: Then it absolutely ought to be working. | 11:09 |
| maxwellian | hopeless8009: Try apt-get --download-only wicd | 11:09 |
| IConrad01 | unimatrix: But that error is what happens when X is not forwarding. | 11:09 |
| IConrad01 | maxwellian: I always forget that option. Thank you. | 11:09 |
| unimatrix | IConrad01 I even have X11 forwarding enabled in /etc/sshd_conf | 11:09 |
| IConrad01 | hopeless8009: Do that from, obviously, a different machine. | 11:09 |
| IConrad01 | unimatrix: Did you restart ssh? | 11:10 |
| unimatrix | IConrad01 it's been enabled for years | 11:10 |
| IConrad01 | Hrm. Then it should be working. | 11:10 |
| IConrad01 | Try ssh -Y | 11:10 |
| bouma | hello, could anyone help me. im getting /media/bf??______'s where _'s get appended to the invalid /media entry for a partition. | 11:10 |
| unimatrix | IConrad01 could it be a problem with the DISPLAY variable not being set? | 11:10 |
| bouma | how can i remove these ? do i have to use rm / on the file/link/inode ? | 11:11 |
| IConrad01 | unimatrix: ... I'm not setting DISPLAY on my machines. | 11:11 |
| hopeless8009 | maxwellin, are you Iconrad01 also | 11:11 |
| IConrad01 | hopeless8009: No, we're different people. lol | 11:12 |
| KnightStalker | XD | 11:12 |
| unimatrix | IConrad01 -Y makes no difference | 11:12 |
| wakkarto | hi | 11:12 |
| bouma | is there a better was to fix the issue, permanently would be nice | 11:12 |
| maxwellian | hopeless8009: No, unless this is some kind of messed up Fight Club remake. | 11:12 |
| IConrad01 | unimatrix: pastebin your ssh_config ? | 11:12 |
| unimatrix | IConrad01 sure | 11:12 |
| KnightStalker | I saw my postfix sending(receivng worked) not working so,I searched google and finded out to test host -t mx gmail.com for example,I saw it failing,any reasons?thats showed via postfix tail " Name service error for name=gmail.com type=MX: Host not found, try again" | 11:12 |
| hopeless8009 | maxwellian, where will they be after they are downlaoded | 11:12 |
| IConrad01 | You should have ForwardX11 yes uncommented and ForwardX11Truest yes as well... | 11:12 |
| bartj | can some one plz help with resizing my root partition | 11:12 |
| bartj | it is 100% full | 11:12 |
| bartj | I am trying to use gparted | 11:13 |
| IConrad01 | hopeless8009: Doesn't matter. Just throw "find / | grep wicd" as root and you'll find it. :) | 11:13 |
| erUSUL | bartj: try to make some room... « sudo apt-get clean » | 11:13 |
| wakkarto | is that even possible? | 11:13 |
| maxwellian | hopeless8009: The .deb file will be in the current directory, meaning the directory you were in when you ran the command. | 11:13 |
| IConrad01 | bartj: You want to do that from LiveCD | 11:13 |
| unimatrix | IConrad01 http://pastebin.com/pibPnnYh | 11:13 |
| IConrad01 | bartj: gparted won't work on mounted drives | 11:13 |

| Gryllida | AmberJ: turn your script off please | 11:16 |
| IConrad01 | maxwellian: It's alright. Not everybody gets to replace their laptop three times in the same year due to their home getting repeatedly broken into like I do. >_< | 11:16 |
| carlos_ | hey, can anyone help me with mounting a .iso image | 11:16 |
| maxwellian | IConrad01: Well if I were the guy breaking in, at least I'd have a nice computer. | 11:16 |
| hopeless8009 | IConrad01, ok i jsut downloaded it what is this again | 11:17 |
| unimatrix | IConrad01: /etc/ssh/sshd_config: line 63: Bad configuration option: ForwardX11 | 11:17 |

| AmberJ | Gryllida: Yeah. sorry..mistakenly loaded that script | 11:17 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: What? | 11:17 |
| === mike is now known as Guest92320 | ||
| KnightStalker | no one knows anything about postfix? >_> | 11:17 |
| Spaztic_One | I'm wireless | 11:17 |
| IConrad01 | maxwellian: Yeah, by the way -- Lo/Jack for laptops is a waste of money. | 11:17 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: What?! How? | 11:17 |
| Spaztic_One | I'm not sure how, but it works | 11:17 |
| DocPlatypus | okay... what exactly is the difference between -386 and -generic kernels? | 11:17 |
| bartj | IConrad01, I have a root partition followed by another partition, which is followed by unallocated space. Now, given that there is no free space contiguous with the root partition, will gparted work in this case? I tried it from a live cd but it didn't seem to be using the unallocated space. | 11:17 |
| erUSUL | KnightStalker: try in #ubuntu-server | 11:17 |
| maxwellian | IConrad01: Good to know... | 11:17 |
| IConrad01 | unimatrix: I CNP'd that directly from my own ssh_config file. | 11:17 |
| === Guest92320 is now known as mikedeboer | ||
| KnightStalker | erUSUL,thansk! | 11:17 |
| KnightStalker | thanks* | 11:17 |
| DocPlatypus | IConrad01: I thought LoJack for laptops was Windows specific anyway? | 11:17 |
| Spaztic_One | I closed all programs, and shut my computer | 11:17 |
| Spaztic_One | I decided to tryit one more time | 11:17 |
| carlos_ | anyone help me with mounting a .iso? | 11:18 |
| IConrad01 | DocPlatypus: It is, but so was the other laptop. | 11:18 |
| Spaztic_One | when I opened it, I had to reload the drivers | 11:18 |
| DocPlatypus | IConrad01: how the hell does it work anyway? | 11:18 |
| Spaztic_One | but then it saw the networks | 11:18 |
| IConrad01 | carlos_: Just use the GUI tools... :-/ | 11:18 |
| Spaztic_One | I deleted the one we made, and am using the one it found instead | 11:18 |
| IConrad01 | DocPlatypus: Basically whenever your computer logs on, it pings a specific server and reports its current IP. | 11:18 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: And it just works? | 11:18 |
| IConrad01 | DocPlatypus: Unless, of course, they reformat. | 11:18 |
| hopeless8009 | IConrad01, i ran the comand at john@john where would i find the file? | 11:18 |
| AmberJ | Can someone tell which script Gryllida was talking about? | 11:18 |
| Spaztic_One | also, the wireless indicator light keeps changing color from blue to orange seemingly at random | 11:18 |
| Spaztic_One | and yes, it just works | 11:18 |
| DocPlatypus | IConrad01: easily defeated by just not letting it on the net... yeah, or reformatting, too | 11:19 |
| erUSUL | AmberJ: the one that triggers this 12:14 * AmberJ Gets erUSUL es <%) | 11:19 |
| unimatrix | IConrad01 ok i got it working | 11:19 |
| IConrad01 | hopeless8009: From the machine you ran the command, execute "find / | grep wicd" as root. | 11:19 |
| carlos_ | IConrad01: I tried using sudo mount -o loop -t iso 9660 and then the image and then the directory and came up with something strange | 11:19 |
| IConrad01 | DocPlatypus: I *did* mention it was a waste of money. | 11:19 |
| maxwellian | IConrad01: FYI, hopeless8009 is a total noob. "As root" may not mean much. | 11:19 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: I don't know what to say... I wish I knew what happened! | 11:20 |
| IConrad01 | maxwellian: Ahh. I'd hope that would translate to "sudo" to anyone capable of running apt-get via CLI. But... you know what they say... | 11:20 |
| hopeless8009 | maxwellian, I understand root i am a noob but i do have a degree in this | 11:20 |
| Spaztic_One | anyway, i;m in bed now, so I;m going to commence with the sleep cycle | 11:20 |
| IConrad01 | carlos_: What happens when you mount the *.iso via Nautilus? | 11:20 |
| DocPlatypus | IConrad01: I mean, if that's all it does, then it's nothing that can't be done with free software and they choose to make it Windows-specific for no real reason. I thought there was some kind of trade secret stuff in it | 11:20 |
| IConrad01 | I.e.; navigate-to and right-click | 11:20 |
| Spaztic_One | haha, yhea, who knows | 11:20 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Congrats, hope it keeps working! | 11:20 |
| Spaztic_One | yep yep | 11:20 |
| DocPlatypus | IConrad01: and I'm not doubting you in the least, btw | 11:20 |
| Spaztic_One | maybe later we can try and figure whats going on | 11:20 |
| IConrad01 | DocPlatypus: The service, and the executables, and **supposedly** it makes changes at the BIOS level. | 11:21 |
| IConrad01 | It's all bullshit. | 11:21 |
| AmberJ | erUSUL: Ok. let me see. | 11:21 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: First thing would be to check your IP address. | 11:21 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Whether its a 114 | 11:21 |
| carlos_ | IConrad01: Well I haven't tried that yet have I xD | 11:21 |
| Spaztic_One | 114.114.114.105 | 11:21 |
| IConrad01 | DocPlatypus: I've had three laptops "protected" w/ Lo/Jack stolen. Not one was ever recovered. It's been a year. | 11:21 |
| Spaztic_One | broadcast is 114.114.114.255 | 11:21 |
| IConrad01 | carlos_: It might be easier. Just sayin'. :) | 11:21 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: You didn't assign it? | 11:21 |
| hopeless8009 | IConrad01, in other words sudo | 11:21 |
| Spaztic_One | mask is 255.255.255.0 | 11:21 |
| Spaztic_One | nope | 11:21 |
| carlos_ | IConrad01: How would I do that now? | 11:21 |
| IConrad01 | hopeless8009: Yes. For your purposes "as root" == "sudo" | 11:21 |
| Spaztic_One | default route and primary DNS are 114.114.114.1 | 11:22 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Awesome, then your router gave you the IP you wanted it to! | 11:22 |
| IConrad01 | carlos_: Open up your file manager / browser -- i.e.; double click on a folder. | 11:22 |
| === lag is now known as Guest50263 | ||
| Spaztic_One | secodary DNS is 209.18.47.61 | 11:22 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: I still have no idea how you're allowed to use those IPs, but at least it's working. | 11:22 |
| Spaztic_One | and yea | 11:22 |
| IConrad01 | carlos_: Navigate to where the *.iso file is stored. Then right-click and choose "open with archive mounter" | 11:22 |
| IConrad01 | And BAM -- one mounted *.iso. | 11:22 |
| Spaztic_One | I thought the Automatic DHCP sounded rightwhen oyu guys were talking about it | 11:22 |
| Spaztic_One | and thats what this one is set to | 11:22 |
| erUSUL | !iso | carlos_ | 11:22 |
| ubottu | carlos_: To mount an ISO disc image, type « sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint> » - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning. | 11:22 |
| hopeless8009 | IConrad01, ok o found the files can you plz tell me what im about to install on my server | 11:23 |
| Spaztic_One | compters are weird, somehow magically knowing the type of connection and stuff | 11:23 |
| Spaztic_One | lol | 11:23 |
| Spaztic_One | anyway | 11:23 |
| lol-hack | hi | 11:23 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One, In general, it IS right. I was going for manual because I thought your Ubuntu wasn't letting you take an illegal address form the router. :) | 11:23 |
| oussama | ba333 | 11:23 |
| IConrad01 | hopeless8009: It's like the network-manager program, but is a competing offering. | 11:23 |
| AmberJ | erUSUL: I guess the script is unloaded now. In case it's not, please ping me. | 11:23 |
| Spaztic_One | ah | 11:23 |
| IConrad01 | hopeless8009: "wicd" stands for "wireless internet connection daemon." | 11:23 |

| oussama | hey there | 11:23 |
| Spaztic_One | well, it was set to share or something before | 11:23 |
| oussama | i'o sono master | 11:23 |
| erUSUL | AmberJ: well; not really my problem | 11:23 |
| DocPlatypus | I'm beginning to wonder if this laptop just does not like 10.04 | 11:23 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Yes, the ad hoc thing is a problem. | 11:23 |
| ranjan | any body here used HylaFAX ?? | 11:23 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Found that out just after you left. | 11:23 |
| hopeless8009 | IConrad01, do you mind walking me through the rest plz | 11:24 |
| lol-hack | hi | 11:24 |
| Spaztic_One | yeah, no clue what adhoc vs infrastructure are | 11:24 |
| IConrad01 | DocPlatypus: PEBKAC. The Code Is Always Right. the Problem is ALWAYS PEBKAC. | 11:24 |
| pepper_haze | can, anyone help me, I am trying intall the desktop virsion of Xen on Ubuntu 10.04 and it says I don't have all the dependacies. | 11:24 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Infrastructure is for access points, like your router. | 11:24 |
| oussama | hey there i have problem with may w3af | 11:24 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Ad hoc is more like you're sharing the connection between your desktop and laptop. | 11:24 |
| lol-hack | ls | 11:25 |
| Spaztic_One | ah... that kinda makes sense | 11:25 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Anyway, come back when you're not a zombie to figure out why you have to reload those modules every time. | 11:25 |
| oussama | can i have some help | 11:25 |
| lol-hack | ls -la | 11:25 |
| Spaztic_One | ok | 11:25 |
| erUSUL | !details | oussama | 11:25 |

| oussama | ok | 11:25 |
| Spaztic_One | night max, thanks for your help, or at least your time since we don't know why it decided to start working =) | 11:25 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: You're welcome for either. :) | 11:26 |
| IConrad01 | hopeless8009: Gimme a sec | 11:26 |
| maxwellian | Spaztic_One: Night! | 11:26 |
| IConrad01 | hopeless8009: Ack! You'll also need "wicd-curses" | 11:26 |
| hopeless8009 | IConrad01, NP thank you much your a big help | 11:26 |
| oussama | i download w3af from sourceforge for ubuntu and when i extract the archive and run the w3afgui she d'asent work* | 11:26 |
| IConrad01 | That's the actual CLI "frontend" for wicd | 11:26 |
| carlos_ | IConrad01: CD-ROM is NOT in ISO 9660 format | 11:27 |
| hopeless8009 | IConrad01, ok i mounted my hardrive in the server already how do i unmount so i can move it over | 11:27 |
| maxwellian | hopeless8009: Download the .deb the same way you did the other one. | 11:27 |
| IConrad01 | hopeless8009: Do you not have any USB drives? These *.deb files are **not** that big... | 11:27 |
| bartj | can one increase the size of a root partition *only* if unallocated space follows it ? | 11:27 |
| IConrad01 | bartj: You can only expand a partition into unclaimed space on the table. | 11:28 |
| IConrad01 | bartj: So you'll have to shrink another partition in order to expand the /boot | 11:28 |
| hopeless8009 | IConrad01, no im sorry i do not | 11:28 |
| IConrad01 | hopeless8009: As long as they're on your drive, that's all that matters. | 11:28 |
| pepper_haze | can anyone here help me, I am having problems with install packages on 10.04 | 11:28 |
| maxwellian | oussama, What happens when you run the gui? | 11:28 |
| IConrad01 | pepper_haze: Are you connected to the internet? | 11:28 |
| antonio_ | hi in bash scripting can i assign to a variable: a=ifconfig | grep eth0 | 11:28 |
| Viking667 | ... huh? | 11:29 |
| antonio_ | ?? | 11:29 |
| pepper_haze | LOL, IConrad01 I wouldn't be chatting here if I wasn't | 11:29 |
| Viking667 | oh. | 11:29 |
| oussama | just nothing | 11:29 |
| hopeless8009 | IConrad01, so its safe to just disconnect the external hardrive form the server | 11:29 |
| IConrad01 | pepper_haze: On the machine in question. You never know. | 11:29 |
| Viking667 | there's a BashFAQ for that, I suspect. | 11:29 |
| maxwellian | pepper_haze: Sometimes people have two machines in order to fix things. | 11:29 |
| bartj | IConrad01: I have 53 GB unallocated space and the "/" partition is 15GB | 11:29 |
| IConrad01 | hopeless8009: I don't know your configuration. Basically you need the *.deb files accessible to the machine with the WiFi we want to configure. | 11:29 |
| IConrad01 | bartj: I believe they need to be contiguous space. | 11:30 |
| erUSUL | antonio_: a=$(ifconfig | grep eth0) | 11:30 |
| maxwellian | hopeless8009: You moved the .deb file onto an external drive from your Internet-ready machine, moved the drive over to the server, and now you want to unmount the drive from the server? | 11:30 |
| IConrad01 | antonio_: Basically go with Viking667's answer. But erUSUL is the specific case. | 11:30 |
| erUSUL | bartj: i would move the home partition to the 53 GiB partition | 11:30 |
| erUSUL | !separatehome | bartj | 11:31 |
| ubottu | bartj: 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 | 11:31 |
| IConrad01 | hopeless8009: Once you install the *.deb files you don't need the external drive to remain attached. That is absolutely correct. | 11:31 |
| welcome | emulator. | 11:31 |
| pepper_haze | IConrad01, I am trying to install ubuntu-xen-desktop with synaptic and it says I don't have all the dependacies, I think I don't have the ppa(?) or something to install it, I think this is a flaw with the packages with 10.04 | 11:31 |
| maxwellian | IConrad01: Should he umount it? | 11:31 |
| Agan_squiddy | is catalyst provide a better power savings feature than xf86-video-radeon? | 11:31 |
| welcome | what is the emulator. ? | 11:31 |
| bartj | I want to allocate 30 GB of the unallocated space to the / root partition | 11:31 |
| IConrad01 | maxwellian: Unmounting a drive before physically removing it is always advisable. | 11:32 |
| carlos_ | IConrad01: when I opened it in nautilus I got this message: CD-ROM is NOT in ISO 9660 format | 11:32 |

| jmkgreen | IConrad01: look familiar at all? | 11:34 |
| IConrad01 | hopeless8009: Basically we're treating the external drive like a USB pendrive. | 11:34 |
| IConrad01 | So just run dpkg -i /path/to/NameOf.deb | 11:34 |

| m4t | i applied 0001-trace-add-trace-events-for-open-exec-an.patch and enabled CONFIG_FTRACE=y and CONFIG_ENABLE_DEFAULT_TRACERS=y. ureadahead will write to /var/lib/ureadahead if i run it after say, doing 'find /' | 11:36 |
| California_Kid | max: thanks though | 11:36 |
| kickingintender | how can i correct | 11:36 |
| m4t | but at boot it writes nothing. is there some way to debug it? perhaps have it log to a file? | 11:36 |
| erUSUL | igoryonya_: that the desktopCD (livecd) can not be used to upgrade | 11:36 |
| bartj | can you guys please have a look and tell me how to increase the root partition ? | 11:36 |
| bartj | is it even possible ? | 11:36 |

| bartj | IConrad01: please have a look at my partition table - http://imgur.com/mvvMZ and let me know if it is possible to increase the root partition | 11:37 |
| IConrad01 | bartj: Try moving your partition to the end of the disk. | 11:38 |
| bartj | you mean the root partition ? | 11:38 |
| IConrad01 | Failing that... make a new partition inside your extended partition, copy the root partition into it... | 11:38 |
| erUSUL | bubuzzz: diown the app or launch it with nohup | 11:38 |

| maxwellian | welcome: You're trying to install Cedega? | 11:38 |
| IConrad01 | Then delete your original root partition, and make a *new* partition at the end of the disk and use it as root-mount. | 11:38 |
| coz_ | welcome, not to my knowlege which applications are you thinking about | 11:38 |
| kickingintender | no help here | 11:39 |
| IConrad01 | bartj: Wait, I'm an idiot. | 11:39 |
| kickingintender | ???????? | 11:39 |
| IConrad01 | bartj: you only have 3 "primary" partitions, and sda devices can have four. | 11:39 |
| abhi_nav | kickingintender, whats the issue? | 11:39 |
| welcome | yea | 11:39 |
| igoryonya_ | erUSUL: but I did somehow upgraded 8.10 to 9.04 from the DVD distro. | 11:39 |
| kickingintender | problem with my partition table | 11:39 |
| kickingintender | ubuntu doesnt recognize my partitions nor xp | 11:39 |
| IConrad01 | Just make a new partition at the end of your disk, make it as large as you like, and then copy /dev/sda1 into it, and change which one is root. | 11:39 |
| welcome | i am trying but it no works, How To Install Cedega then ? | 11:39 |
| bartj | IConrad01: why what is wrong ? | 11:40 |
| erUSUL | igoryonya_: maybe that DVD includes alternate cd... | 11:40 |
| IConrad01 | kickingintender: look up reinstalling GRUB via LiveCD. | 11:40 |

| kickingintender | no ....its fresh install and ubuntu doesnt recognize my partitions | 11:41 |
| IConrad01 | maxwellian: Even for ADD aspies at 4:00 AM. | 11:41 |
| welcome | its not free ? | 11:41 |
| bartj | IConrad01: well...how does one go about making a partition as root ? | 11:41 |
| abhi_nav | kickingintender, does ubuntu starts normaly? | 11:41 |
| welcome | i thought everything on liunx for free !? | 11:41 |
| IConrad01 | bartj: ... there are a lot of gparted tutorials out there, many of which with visual walkthroughs. | 11:41 |
| abhi_nav | welcome, not 'everything' | 11:41 |
| IConrad01 | I'd suggest googling for 'em. :) | 11:41 |
| welcome | i mean the softwere | 11:41 |
| sinistrad | Anyone know in kdenlive how to do a transition between clips and also have a text overlay (title text)? My output goes black when I hit the overlay. I have a photo of my project --> http://imagebin.ca/view/l-LVIT4.html | 11:41 |
| abhi_nav | welcome, majority of time you are paying for the 'service' not for the product | 11:41 |
| erUSUL | bartj: again; i think that your best option is to move /home to the 53 giB partitions and leave root where it is | 11:42 |
| erUSUL | !separatehome | bartj | 11:42 |
| ubottu | bartj: 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 | 11:42 |
| IConrad01 | Lost hopeless8009. :-/ | 11:42 |
| IConrad01 | erUSUL: his /home **is** separate. | 11:42 |
| maxwellian | IConrad01: He left? | 11:42 |
| IConrad01 | maxwellian: His connection dropped. | 11:42 |
| erUSUL | bartj: how did you managed to fill up a 15 GiB root partition ? | 11:42 |
| kickingintender | abhi_nav problem is that i dont even have installed ubuntu for this issue | 11:43 |
| IConrad01 | "Connection dropped by peer" | 11:43 |
| kickingintender | i want 2 dual boot xp and ubuntu | 11:43 |
| pepper_haze | how do you install packages from launchpad? | 11:43 |
| abhi_nav | kickingintender, I am not getting your issue. can yuo clearly specify? | 11:43 |
| maxwellian | IConrad01: Ah, hopefully he'll come back. I want to learn about setting up networks the way he needs to. | 11:43 |
| abhi_nav | kickingintender, ok you want to dual boot. so is xp currently installed and running? | 11:43 |
| bubuzzz | erUSUL: nohup works but it sill ask me when i close the terminal. Application still close when i press Ctrl + C | 11:43 |
| IConrad01 | maxwellian: wicd-curses is TUI. | 11:43 |
| IConrad01 | Easy-peasy. | 11:43 |
| bartj | erUSUL: I installed a huge database on the root partition | 11:43 |

| kickingintender | i have 80 gb hdd want 2 install xp and ubuntu but ubuntu doesnt recognize my partitons | 11:44 |
| maxwellian | IConrad01: Cool. :) | 11:44 |
| pepper_haze | IConrad01, I went and found packages I need, but I don't know how to install them from launchpad | 11:44 |
| IConrad01 | pepper_haze: They're PPAs | 11:44 |
| abhi_nav | only two lies of spam? | 11:44 |
| kickingintender | i have installed xp and working on it | 11:44 |
| erUSUL | bubuzzz: nuhup and & at the end i.e. $ nohup firefox & | 11:44 |
| pepper_haze | IConrad01, how do I install them? | 11:44 |
| IConrad01 | Basically, somewhere on the PPA's home page should be a link like "ppa:so-and-so/ppa" | 11:44 |
| bubuzzz | ok. Work perfectly. Thank you very muchg | 11:45 |
| maxwellian | kickingintender: Start from the beginning. You had a working installation of Windows XP? | 11:45 |
| maxwellian | kickingintender: Then what did you do? | 11:45 |
| IConrad01 | add that from Synaptic - Settings - Repositories - Other Software "+ add" | 11:45 |
| abhi_nav | kickingintender, i suggest you go to xp and from there make a free space (not formated) for ubuntu. and then go to ubuntu installation. it wll detect that free partition and then install buntu there | 11:45 |
| IConrad01 | Use that "ppa:so-and-so" line as the thing to go in the field that'll pop up with. | 11:45 |
| IConrad01 | And then reload synaptic and give the install of Xen another whirl. | 11:46 |
| IConrad01 | You're basically adding pointers for Synaptic to resolve the dependencies on its own with. | 11:46 |
| welcome | welcome, majority of time you are paying for the 'service' not for the product , | 11:46 |
| welcome | but in the windows i dont pay but i get a crack for the games , and the softwere free | 11:46 |
| bartj | erUSUL: but your suggestion would involve moving the /tmp and the /swap partition to the right! | 11:46 |
| IConrad01 | pepper_haze: Does it *have* to be Xen, by the way? | 11:47 |
| maxwellian | welcome: Nobody's here to talk to you about stealing software. | 11:47 |
| maxwellian | welcome: Is there something you don't understand about that page I linked for you? | 11:47 |
| welcome | i got it | 11:48 |
| IConrad01 | Well, no more hopeless8009 it looks like. | 11:48 |
| IConrad01 | Ahh, well. | 11:48 |
| maxwellian | welcome: Someone else mentioned wine, which IS completely free. | 11:48 |
| IConrad01 | Hopefully he'll figure out how to get at and install those *.deb's and work it out from there. | 11:48 |
| IConrad01 | ... I doubt it, sadly. | 11:48 |
| maxwellian | IConrad01: Not in a million years. | 11:49 |
| erUSUL | bartj: well my suggestion try to avoid having to move or resize anything; thus reducing the chance of data loss | 11:49 |
| maxwellian | IConrad01: You hadn't even gotten to the hard part yet. | 11:49 |
| welcome | yea i see the wine in the website they said not all the softwere work on it right ? | 11:49 |
| IConrad01 | maxwellian: Well, I did keep mentioning dpkg -i /path/to/NameOf.deb | 11:49 |
| erUSUL | bartj: i that the db is somewhere in /var/ why not move var to that 53GiB space ? | 11:49 |
| maxwellian | welcome: That's right. This is also true of Cedega. They're emulators, not everything is going to work. | 11:49 |
| IConrad01 | welcome: Of course not. It's like twenty guys trying to replicate the work thousands. | 11:49 |
| IConrad01 | maxwellian: Argh. WINE is not an emulator. | 11:50 |
| IConrad01 | WINE *is* an emulation in the sense that it replicates the API of Windows. | 11:50 |
| bartj | Currently there are two solutions ? | 11:50 |
| IConrad01 | But it is a genuine implementation, and is thus not an emulator. | 11:50 |
| IConrad01 | Cedega, on the other hand, *IS* an emulator. | 11:50 |
| bartj | 1. Move the /root partiton to the unallocated partition and make that as the root | 11:50 |
| maxwellian | IConrad01: Geez, it's not like your point is contained IN THE NAME of the software... ;) | 11:51 |
| bartj | 2. Move all the partitions to the right, thus increasing the size of the root partition | 11:51 |
| * maxwellian bonks himself on the head | 11:51 | |
| bartj | erUSUL: right ? | 11:51 |
| hopeless8009 | IConrad01, you still there i got disconnected | 11:51 |

| hopeless8009 | IConrad01, i have no idea how to mount a drive or anythign about it | 11:51 |
| erUSUL | bartj: did not follow everything said. just offered my solution | 11:52 |
| maxwellian | welcome: You can search for your app there and see how well it's supported. | 11:52 |
| IConrad01 | And... he's out again | 11:52 |
| maxwellian | IConrad01: Whoops. :) | 11:52 |
| IConrad01 | maxwellian: Not only is it in there, it's in there an infinite number of times. | 11:52 |
| IConrad01 | By the way -- google for "recursion" and then check out the "did you mean" | 11:52 |
| maxwellian | IConrad01: Ha...good point. :) | 11:53 |
| IConrad01 | No, seriously -- do it | 11:53 |
| IConrad01 | bartj: Your easiest bet is to move all other partitions to the right... | 11:54 |
| welcome | okay thxs anyway i have to leave now :D | 11:54 |
| IConrad01 | bartj: And then expand your /dev/sda1 partition. | 11:54 |

| IConrad01 | ... shizen. | 11:55 |
| === sanderj is now known as Snadder | ||
| bartj | IConrad01: I like the moving /root partition to the unallocated space and making that the root better ? | 11:56 |
| IConrad01 | bartj: Well, yes. You should be able to just copy /dev/sda1 to the unallocated space... and then expand that. | 11:56 |
| IConrad01 | Though that will leave unallocated space at the beginning of your drive... | 11:56 |
| === albondi is now known as albondee | ||

| IConrad01 | maxwellian: Separate physical drive. | 11:58 |
| maxwellian | IConrad01: What the hell do you have on the root partition? | 11:58 |
| IConrad01 | With 140 GB of 250 consumed. | 11:58 |

| IConrad01 | milk: That being said -- you might have luck trying apt-get install libgtk over again. | 12:04 |
| milk | so what do i do ? :)) | 12:04 |
| maxwellian | milk: Do you have a record of everything that was removed? | 12:04 |

| milk | im checking the log | 12:08 |
| IConrad01 | milk: sudo tail /var/log/apt/term.log | 12:08 |
| IConrad01 | It'll show the most recent entries. | 12:08 |
| gor | привет | 12:09 |
| maxwellian | Uh, milk, I did a dry run of what would happen if I actually removed libgtk from my system, and literally hundreds of packages were marked for removal. | 12:09 |
| * abhi_nav .... | 12:09 | |
| IConrad01 | maxwellian: He was doing an upgrade. | 12:09 |
| milk | yeb i know | 12:09 |
| IConrad01 | Upgrades wouldn't do dependency removals like that. | 12:10 |
| milk | i wasnt watching | 12:10 |
| IConrad01 | It sounds more like the new entry just went bad. | 12:10 |
| IConrad01 | milk: You **might** just be better off moving /home to a new partition (if not already) and just reinstalling. | 12:10 |
| daniel | hey guys I have a problem my exaile just sometimes stop playing why?. | 12:10 |
| milk | damn | 12:10 |
| IConrad01 | Sure, it's the nuclear option. But it'd be easier overall and take less time. | 12:10 |
| IConrad01 | Than chasing down hundreds of dependencies anyhow. | 12:10 |
| milk | yeah probably | 12:10 |
| maxwellian | milk: Are you running the system right now? | 12:10 |
| milk | yes | 12:10 |
| maxwellian | milk: WIth Gnome running? | 12:11 |
| IConrad01 | If /var/log/apt/term.log doesn't show **only** the gtk version as having been actually removed. | 12:11 |
| carlos_ | Hey guys, I'm still having problems trying to install sims 3, but still having problems mounting the thing first, I've searched through many a forum and be confused by all of them, can anyone help? | 12:11 |
| milk | gnome ? | 12:11 |
| maxwellian | milk: Err, do you have a graphical interface? Windows? | 12:11 |
| milk | yes | 12:11 |
| maxwellian | milk: Then I can't imagine it being that bad...from what I understand, Gnome would depend on libgtk... | 12:11 |
| IConrad01 | maxwellian: He might just not be able to open new sessions. | 12:12 |
| milk | there are very few things left | 12:12 |
| IConrad01 | Milk: what's in that term.log file? | 12:12 |
| IConrad01 | Lots-and-lots of things? | 12:12 |
| IConrad01 | Or history.log for that matter. | 12:12 |
| milk | where is it located ? | 12:12 |
| IConrad01 | /var/log/apt/history.log | 12:12 |
| abhi_nav_ | any good mail notificatin program please? | 12:13 |
| IConrad01 | abhi_nav_: I just use Thunderbird. | 12:13 |
| maxwellian | milk: sudo less /var/log/apt/history.log | 12:13 |
| carlos_ | anyone? | 12:13 |
| VilleVicious | I'm running 10.04 and it seems to completely ingnore empy cd-rs in my drive, which makes burning cds a problematic. Can any one give me any advice on this? | 12:13 |

| milk | lot of things | 12:14 |
| carlos_ | IConrad01: I'm stuck with everything, I can't find anything on forums to help me trying to mount this thingy | 12:14 |
| IConrad01 | VilleVicious: Does Brasero find 'em? | 12:14 |
| IConrad01 | carlos_: You need the file format. | 12:14 |
| IConrad01 | abhi_nav_: Use alltray to minimize Thunderbird then. | 12:14 |
| IConrad01 | Or else stick w/ Evolution. | 12:14 |
| carlos_ | IConrad01: It's a .ro.iso does that matter? | 12:14 |
| abhi_nav_ | IConrad01, what is that? how to do it? | 12:14 |
| IConrad01 | abhi_nav_: It's an app in the repository. | 12:15 |
| carlos_ | IConrad01: "raw CD image (application/x-cd-image)" | 12:15 |
| IConrad01 | Hrm. | 12:15 |
| Rogasch | Hello all | 12:15 |
| ubuntu | Please someone know why i cant grow ubuntu part ? | 12:15 |
| abhi_nav_ | IConrad01, and does evolution automatically does this? I mean sitting on panel and alerting? | 12:15 |
| scryption2 | how ( with bash ) can i see the keyboard bindings / layout ? | 12:16 |
| star-dust | hi | 12:16 |
| VilleVicious | IConrad01: no, it says that insert cd-r to make something other that an cd-image when I try adding files to be burned | 12:16 |
| maxwellian | milk: If it's a lot of things, a re-install is the best option, I would think. | 12:16 |
| === abhi_nav_ is now known as abhi_nav | ||
| IConrad01 | VilleVicious: It does that with all CD-R's? | 12:16 |
| milk | now everything froze | 12:16 |
| IConrad01 | milk: Nuke it. | 12:16 |
| Rogasch | can somebody tell me how i change the folderlink from my homedir /expl: Downloads) to another location? | 12:16 |
| ubuntu | VilleVicious | 12:16 |
| maxwellian | milk: Do you have a way of getting your stuff elsewhere? | 12:17 |
| ubuntu | help me please ? can you ?» | 12:17 |
| IConrad01 | Use a LiveCD to separate your /home partition so your personal settings and the like don't go away. | 12:17 |
| IConrad01 | And then just reinstall your root directory. | 12:17 |
| carlos_ | IConrad01: is that not the file format? | 12:17 |
| IConrad01 | carlos_: No. | 12:17 |
| maxwellian | Rogasch: What are you trying to do? | 12:17 |
| Rogasch | is there no other way | 12:17 |
| abhi_nav | IConrad01, ?? | 12:18 |
| Rogasch | i mounted a folder via sshfs to /mnt/Downloads | 12:18 |
| ubuntu | IConrad01 that so is for me ? | 12:18 |
| IConrad01 | abhi_nav: ? | 12:18 |
| abhi_nav | IConrad01, and does evolution automatically does this? I mean sitting on panel and alerting? | 12:18 |
| Rogasch | now i want to link my Download folder from home to this | 12:18 |
| carlos_ | IConrad01: oh so how do i find out the file format? | 12:18 |
| IConrad01 | abhi_nav: While running, yes. | 12:18 |
| FounDthisOut | Hello World .. i get friend CD and boot .. help me install to hard drive ? me no use linux before | 12:18 |
| abhi_nav | IConrad01, ok | 12:18 |
| IConrad01 | carlos_: I'm not 100% sure. That's why I suggested googling for linux-based tools for determining filesystem. | 12:18 |
| abhi_nav | thankyou IConrad01 | 12:18 |
| carlos_ | ok | 12:18 |
| milk | yes | 12:19 |
| milk | thanks for the help :))) | 12:19 |
| maxwellian | milk: Good luck! | 12:19 |
| FounDthisOut | where is new user help channel or this is new user help channel | 12:19 |
| maxwellian | Rogasch: So you want anything that gets put into your ~/Downloads folder to go into /mnt/Downloads? | 12:20 |
| Rogasch | yes exactly | 12:20 |
| ubuntu | gparted help please , | 12:20 |
| maxwellian | Rogasch, you want to set up a symlink then. | 12:20 |
| daniel | hey guys I have a problem my exaile just sometimes stop playing why?. | 12:20 |
| Rogasch | yes | 12:20 |
| IConrad01 | ubuntu: You're on the LiveCD now? | 12:20 |
| maxwellian | Oh wait, symlink won't work across filesystems, will it...? | 12:20 |
| FounDthisOut | help me install ubuntu .. i boot CD | 12:20 |
| kwabena | FOUND..hwy | 12:21 |
| kwabena | why | 12:21 |
| Rogasch | i thougt about a simple softlink but i dont know if its good | 12:21 |
| ubuntu | _Yes iam in live cd now , and not mounted in none parti | 12:21 |
| Rogasch | becaus of sshfs | 12:21 |
| maxwellian | Rogasch, Exactly, a symlink is a soft link. | 12:21 |
| ubuntu | IConrad01 | 12:21 |
| IConrad01 | ubuntu: What's the exact error? | 12:21 |
| FounDthisOut | kwabena: why | 12:22 |
| ubuntu | no error it simple dont let me grow ubuntu part , or nether shrink windows part , it say zero space before and after | 12:22 |
| maxwellian | Rogasch: Not sure how to accomplish this then. Why not just do the sshfs directly into ~/Downloads? | 12:22 |
| ubuntu | i want a grow ubuntu part | 12:22 |
| maxwellian | Rogasch: Remove the ~/Downloads directory (assuming it's empty), and re-do the sshfs to mount it there instead. | 12:22 |
| carlos_ | Iconrad01: File format or filesystem? | 12:22 |
| maxwellian | Rogasch: No middleman. | 12:22 |
| ubuntu | it only let me shrink ubuntu part , and that s what i dont want | 12:22 |
| IConrad01 | ubuntu: can you take a screenshot of what gparted is showing you and post it to imgur? | 12:22 |
| Rogasch | i tried but sometimes my system freeze becaus of that | 12:22 |
| IConrad01 | carlos_: Both, actually. | 12:23 |
| abhi_nav | hey IConrad01 i used alltray. thanks :) | 12:23 |
| VilleVicious | I only have Cd-rs made by sony but I've tested a few and no luck, the drive recognizes taleast some previously burned cd-s fine | 12:23 |
| carlos_ | Iconrad01: okies | 12:23 |
| ubuntu | Iconrad01 post imgur ? yes i can take a screenshoot my friend , do you have imgur link ? | 12:23 |
| Rogasch | fo example i tried to install a VM from a ISO how is stored on the sshfs folder | 12:23 |
| maxwellian | Rogasch: Are you sure it's because of that? What happens exactly? | 12:23 |
| Rogasch | for about 2min i works fine but then all freeze up | 12:24 |
| IConrad01 | carlos_: Hey! | 12:24 |
| === vivid` is now known as vivid | ||
| IConrad01 | Have you tried unrar'ing the file? | 12:24 |
| carlos_ | Iconrad01: Hey!! | 12:25 |
| IConrad01 | I just did a little googling and it sounds like your file -- that .ro -- is indicating it's archived as something other than just a *.iso | 12:25 |
| scryption2 | hi there | 12:25 |
| carlos_ | Iconrad01: I can't find anything, jeez I'm such a noob at this >_< | 12:25 |
| IConrad01 | Just apt-get install unrar | 12:25 |
| ubuntu_ | i co teraz | 12:25 |
| carlos_ | Iconrad01: I can find like explanations of the file systems but no tools to read files | 12:25 |
| maxwellian | Rogasch, you tried to install a virtual machine from an ISO which was stored on the sshfs folder? | 12:25 |
| IConrad01 | Then unrar NameOfFile.ro.iso | 12:25 |
| scryption2 | where can i find the keyboard table ( config file ) so i could disable some for kiosk use? | 12:26 |
| Rogasch | exactly | 12:26 |
| wildbat | Rogasch, connection interrupt? did you try with reconnect mount option ?? | 12:26 |
| IConrad01 | Give it a shot. | 12:26 |

| FounDthisOut | i have 54 gib free hd .. how much need ubuntu install ? i boot cd | 12:26 |
| IConrad01 | ubuntu: http://www.imgur.com | 12:26 |
| Rogasch | i cant because the system totaly freeze | 12:26 |
| ubuntu | IConrad01 : I am now signin on imgur | 12:26 |
| Rogasch | i have to make a hard reboot | 12:26 |
| Agan_squiddy | 7gigs will do the job | 12:26 |
| IConrad01 | ubuntu: You don't need a signin. | 12:26 |
| IConrad01 | You can do anonymous image posting. | 12:26 |
| FounDthisOut | Agan_squiddy: help me ? | 12:27 |
| FounDthisOut | Agan_squiddy: how i give 10 gb to try ? with no loose any main data ? | 12:28 |
| indus | FounDthisOut, if 54 gb is free , why not use all of it? | 12:28 |
| maxwellian | Rogasch: I don't know what happened there, but http://fuse.sourceforge.net/sshfs.html says that it's recommended not to run as root, and that you should own the mountpoint. | 12:28 |
| maxwellian | Rogasch: In other words, the mountpoint should be in your home directory. | 12:28 |
| FounDthisOut | indus i never use before .. i give try .. if i learn ok, i do full ubuntu on laptop | 12:28 |
| indus | FounDthisOut, 10 gb seems ok then | 12:29 |
| FounDthisOut | ok how go ? | 12:29 |
| FounDthisOut | click install on desktop ? i boot is from CD | 12:29 |
| indus | FounDthisOut, hmm what other operating system is there on this hard disk | 12:29 |
| Rogasch | maxwellian: well it was. i did not use sudo in the shell | 12:29 |
| FounDthisOut | windows 7 | 12:29 |
| IConrad01 | FounDthisOut: Yes. The installer process will walk you through that with a sliding bar. | 12:29 |
| FounDthisOut | ntfs | 12:29 |
| IConrad01 | Alternatively, you **might** want to try the Wubi installer. | 12:30 |
| maxwellian | Rogasch: How did you mount to /mnt then? | 12:30 |
| IConrad01 | It won't require you to reformat. | 12:30 |
| indus | FounDthisOut, click on install | 12:30 |
| IConrad01 | It's also on your LiveCD. | 12:30 |
| FounDthisOut | no drives .. only one big C:\ drive .. i want give 10 gbs from that drive .. ok ? | 12:30 |
| Rogasch | i changed the chmod to 777 | 12:30 |
| maxwellian | On /mnt? | 12:30 |
| Rogasch | yes | 12:30 |
| indus | FounDthisOut, select first option after you finish the first few install screens for language , time etc | 12:30 |
| FounDthisOut | ok ok plz wait | 12:30 |
| maxwellian | Yuck, okay. | 12:30 |
| Rogasch | chmod 777 /mnt -R | 12:31 |
| Rogasch | why? its not good? | 12:31 |
| FounDthisOut | [just confirm] i dont lose data right ? | 12:31 |
| indus | FounDthisOut, no | 12:31 |
| indus | FounDthisOut, dont worry | 12:31 |
| IConrad01 | maxwellian: Couldn't he just sudo chown: User:User /mnt/sshfsdir ? | 12:31 |
| ubuntu_ | i jak | 12:31 |
| Agan_squiddy | FoundThisOut: if you only have a big single C:\ drive right now, the best thing to do first is to backup existing data first. | 12:31 |
| napster | I'm getting error, that "Failed to fetch http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/lucid-security/restricted/binary-i386/Packages.gz 407 Proxy Authentication Required" when I try to do sudo apt-get update | 12:32 |
| ubuntu_ | dobra jedziem z tym koksem | 12:32 |
| napster | WHat to do now? | 12:32 |
| FounDthisOut | no can back up its almost 450 gb data on 500 gb hard drive | 12:32 |
| maxwellian | IConrad01: Yes, but I don't know why he thinks it needs to be under /mnt in the first place. | 12:32 |
| IConrad01 | maxwellian: Maybe that's just where it's already mounted? | 12:32 |
| maxwellian | IConrad01: He put it there because he thought that would solve another problem he was having. | 12:32 |
| napster | I'm a newbie so don't know how to fix it! | 12:32 |
| napster | Can anyone help me? | 12:32 |
| Rogasch | i tried to figure out why my system freeze | 12:33 |
| Rogasch | so i relocate the folder | 12:33 |
| IConrad01 | maxwellian: Well, it's there now. | 12:33 |
| maxwellian | IConrad01: I'm recommending that people don't muck around with giving away permissions normally reserved for root. | 12:33 |
| IConrad01 | Rogasch: ... that... really shouldn't have that effect. | 12:33 |
| FounDthisOut | ok .. i read every screen full and go .. so lot of time .. brb | 12:33 |
| indus | FounDthisOut, what ? | 12:33 |
| IConrad01 | maxwellian: If you'll notice, I was suggesting limiting it to the mounted sshfs directory and its subs. | 12:33 |

| napster | I'm getting error, that "Failed to fetch http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/lucid-security/restricted/binary-i386/Packages.gz 407 Proxy Authentication Required" when I try to do sudo apt-get update | 12:33 |
| indus | napster, hi what is the proble, | 12:34 |
| napster | indus: I need to install codecs | 12:34 |
| napster | or vlc player | 12:34 |
| napster | :-) | 12:34 |
| indus | napster, its some temporary problem, try after some time | 12:34 |
| maxwellian | IConrad01: I did notice, I'm just wondering whether he ever needed to leave the comfort of his home directory. | 12:34 |
| napster | indus: no | 12:34 |
| indus | napster, ah are you behind a proxy ? | 12:34 |
| IConrad01 | maxwellian: I'm going with "no", but it's already there so why screw with it? | 12:34 |
| napster | indus: I don;t understatnd! | 12:34 |
| IConrad01 | napster: How do you connect to the 'net? | 12:35 |
| indus | napster, what kind of internet do you have | 12:35 |
| indus | ya same question like IConrad01 | 12:35 |
| maxwellian | IConrad01: Now he wants ~/Downloads to point to his /mnt/Downloads or whatever he called it. | 12:35 |
| napster | indus: IConrad01 Wireless network | 12:35 |
| maxwellian | IConrad01: From what I understand, symlink won't do it. | 12:35 |
| indus | napster, i see this line 407 Proxy Authentication Required | 12:35 |
| napster | indus: IConrad01 Its my campus network | 12:35 |
| Rogasch | exacly | 12:35 |
| maxwellian | IConrad01: Across filesystems. | 12:35 |
| FounDthisOut | i stuck at step 4 .. it open prepare partitions screen .. but its all empty .. i click forward ? | 12:36 |
| IConrad01 | napster: There ya go. They're probably hiding your connection behind a proxy and not informing you. | 12:36 |
| Rogasch | do you suggest i shoud not do it? | 12:36 |
| napster | IConrad01: How can I install the codecs then? | 12:36 |
| IConrad01 | maxwellian: Yeah, you can't symlink to an sshfs folder. | 12:36 |
| maxwellian | Rogasch: I'm only saying that if the sshfs were mounted in your home directory, you wouldn't have this problem. | 12:36 |
| FounDthisOut | it some error | 12:36 |
| FounDthisOut | install no go | 12:36 |
| Rogasch | yea thats what i thougt | 12:36 |
| zulgaban | hi | 12:36 |
| Rogasch | than why my system freeze | 12:37 |
| IConrad01 | napster: Gimme a sec. | 12:37 |
| maxwellian | Rogasch: Try mounting it in your home dir, and doing something simple like download a picture. | 12:37 |
| maxwellian | Rogasch: Running a VM over sshfs (if that's what you're trying to do) doesn't sound trivial to me, although it may be. | 12:37 |
| Rogasch | that works fine | 12:37 |
| napster | IConrad01: Okey, I can access internet via a browser without problems though | 12:37 |

| daniel | hey guys I have a problem my exaile just sometimes stop playing why?. | 12:38 |
| IConrad01 | napster: It's a port issue, not a general connection issue, I am suspecting. | 12:38 |
| Rogasch | i think maybe because the ISO i want to install is about 4,2 GB | 12:38 |
| napster | IConrad01: So, what we can do now? | 12:38 |
| DasEi | FounDthisOut: you try to install ubuntu and are at the partioning menu so ? | 12:38 |
| IConrad01 | napster: run, from CLI, the following: sudo apt-get update | 12:38 |
| maxwellian | Rogasch: Do you have a separate partition for your /home | 12:38 |
| IConrad01 | What happens? | 12:38 |
| FounDthisOut | DasEi: but it stop at step 4 with error | 12:38 |
| Rogasch | no | 12:39 |
| indus | napster, ok so its not a direct connection | 12:39 |
| cell0 | how do i install a specific package version? in my case i've installed debhelper 7.0.17 in karmic but need 7.0.50 | 12:39 |
| napster | IConrad01: Same error | 12:39 |
| FounDthisOut | DasEi: no go install forward | 12:39 |
| maxwellian | Rogasch: What is your partition setup? | 12:39 |
| napster | indus: Hmm :-( | 12:39 |
| indus | FounDthisOut, waitttttttt | 12:39 |
| DasEi | FounDthisOut: you need least a root and a swap partitoin | 12:39 |
| IConrad01 | ubuntu: You need to shrink /dev/sda1... | 12:39 |
| indus | FounDthisOut, in 4th step you have 3 options, which one you try | 12:39 |
| FounDthisOut | DasEi: i have 1 hard disk | 12:39 |
| IConrad01 | Then expand /dev/sda2... | 12:39 |
| IConrad01 | So you can grow /dev/sda5 | 12:39 |
| DasEi | FounDthisOut: that's fine | 12:40 |
| Agan_squiddy | FounDthisOut: if u stuck and have minimal knowledge at partitioning, i highly recomend to backup first. that way you would't hate linux if something goes wrong. | 12:40 |
| DasEi | size , FounDthisOut ? | 12:40 |
| Rogasch | maxwellian: well i have a 5.1 swap and a 60GB ext4 partition | 12:40 |
| indus | FounDthisOut, why are you attempting to partition without asking for help here? | 12:40 |
| IConrad01 | ubuntu: rule of thumb: Gparted can only grow partitions into "gray space". | 12:40 |
| IConrad01 | Unformatted space, in other words. | 12:40 |
| FounDthisOut | indus .. what partition ? | 12:40 |
| indus | FounDthisOut, you said some error | 12:40 |
| FounDthisOut | friend say click click click and install .. i like boot cd graphic | 12:40 |
| indus | FounDthisOut, manual partition if you dont know you can lose all data ! | 12:41 |
| ubuntu | but it dont let me shrink windows part . Should i use windows live cd to shrink windows part ? | 12:41 |
| DasEi | FounDthisOut: you can choose automatic partitioning, takes whole drive then, no prob | 12:41 |
| FounDthisOut | ya .. i click install ---> step 1 english .. step 2 time zone .. step 3 opened big window | 12:41 |
| maxwellian | Rogasch, Okay, so you're not running out of space on the partition. | 12:41 |
| indus | ubuntu i think gparted can shrink it | 12:41 |
| Rogasch | no | 12:41 |
| maxwellian | Rogasch: What are you trying to do with the vm? | 12:41 |
| indus | napster, just open firefox and check internet settings | 12:41 |
| FounDthisOut | so no install right now ? | 12:42 |
| napster | indus: Its working fine | 12:42 |
| ubuntu | indus iam in ubuntu live cd, not mounted and i can resze window part . | 12:42 |
| ubuntu | i cant , i mean | 12:42 |

| naftilos76 | hi, has anyone experienced mouse/keyboard stop responding (not crash). as seen in google lots of people have experienced in Kubuntu 10.04 and some say it is a kernel bug. One has tried giving params to the kernel at boot time which worked for hime but not 4 me! the param he gave was 'i8042.nopnp'. I am in the middle of a crises! please help... | 12:43 |
| maxwellian | Rogasch: So you're not talking about a virtual machine, you're talking about an ISO that was ripped from a DVD? | 12:43 |
| DasEi | FounDthisOut: aah, I see, so need manual partitoning, k | 12:43 |
| Rogasch | maxwellian: i used the function in Virtualbox to mount a iso as CDrom | 12:43 |
| FounDthisOut | DasEi: guide me step by setp ? | 12:43 |
| DasEi | yes | 12:43 |
| FounDthisOut | private ok or here both ok | 12:43 |
| maxwellian | Rogasch: I don't know anything about Virtualbox, but you can't mount a 4 gig file as a cd. | 12:43 |
| DasEi | FounDthisOut: let's stay here | 12:43 |
| Rogasch | no i is as ISO from the opsenSuse page | 12:43 |
| indus | DasEi, he needs because auto partition with not leave free space i think and format all remaining space as ext3 . not sure on this | 12:43 |
| IConrad01 | maxwellian: Yes you can. | 12:44 |
| DasEi | indus: got it , thks | 12:44 |
| IConrad01 | maxwellian: VBox makes no distinction between CD's and DVD's when it comes to *.iso files. | 12:44 |
| guntbert | Rogasch: virtualbox support is in #vbox, you can mount any iso so it looks like a CD for the guest | 12:44 |
| indus | DasEi, i dont remember exactly this one | 12:44 |
| Rogasch | thats waht i thougt too | 12:44 |
| soreau | IConrad01: Why use cat? just grep restricted /etc/apt/sources.list | grep security | 12:44 |

| daniel | what will I write ? | 12:50 |
| fl3sh | Hello, how can I edit my boot loader? | 12:50 |
| maxwellian | daniel: Open one, and type 'top' and press enter. | 12:50 |
| IConrad01 | Rogasch: ahh. | 12:50 |
| Oer | top = table of processes | 12:50 |
| maxwellian | Oer: Thanks, I never knew that. :) | 12:51 |
| DasEi | fl3sh: /etc/default/grub, afterwards sudo update-grub | 12:51 |
| maxwellian | Oer: Never wondered either, I just got used to weird names. | 12:51 |
| daniel | maxwellian im in the terminal I used unix for 3 years so the basics are easy. | 12:51 |
| p1l0t | Why do I get a permission denied error when trying to chown a folder (with the sudo command!?) | 12:51 |
| fl3sh | DasEi, thank you | 12:51 |
| Rogasch | IConrad01: maybe i shoud use vmware? | 12:51 |
| madav | hi all, is here someone who could help me with configuring samba as an ldap pdc for windows 7 clients on ubuntu 10.04? | 12:51 |
| guntbert | Rogasch: you start the VM already? | 12:51 |
| indus | fl3sh, what exactly do u want to edit | 12:51 |
| IConrad01 | Rogasch: And all that about sshfs was because the CD *.iso is located elsewhere? | 12:51 |
| daniel | tell me what to write in terminal . :) | 12:51 |
| maxwellian | fl3sh, uh, be careful messing with your boot loader. | 12:51 |
| DasEi | p1l0t: chown -R | 12:51 |
| DasEi | sudo* | 12:51 |
| fl3sh | the time out and the default OS boot | 12:52 |
| soby | p1lot: check the ownership of that file | 12:52 |
| maxwellian | daniel,: As I said, type 'top' and press enter | 12:52 |
| p1l0t | It's owned by 1001 | 12:52 |
| daniel | ok | 12:52 |
| Rogasch | IConrad01: i have a little ubuntu server running with some storage room | 12:52 |
| DasEi | !who | fl3sh, right there | 12:52 |
| ubottu | fl3sh, right there: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) | 12:52 |
| p1l0t | DasEi: trying -R | 12:52 |
| daniel | want it in pastebin? | 12:52 |
| FounDthisOut | DasEi: thanks ! phew ! http://imagebin.org/103790 | 12:52 |
| Rogasch | IConrad01: thats where i put all my file i dont want on my machine | 12:52 |
| IConrad01 | Rogasch: Okay, is that the same location the VBox is running from? | 12:52 |
| soby | p1l0t: 1001 is the username?? | 12:52 |
| maxwellian | daniel: No, but do you say anything at the top taking up a lot of CPU? | 12:52 |
| fl3sh | DasEi, sorry about that | 12:52 |
| eoke | daniel: You might be interested in powersaved http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=846480 | 12:53 |
| Rogasch | IConrad01: thats the location the iso is, yes | 12:53 |
| daniel | hmm | 12:53 |
| fl3sh | indus, the timeout and the OS default boot | 12:53 |
| indus | fl3sh, ah time out , then sudo gedit /etc/default/grub | 12:53 |
| IConrad01 | Rogasch: Not just the *.iso but VBox itself as well? | 12:53 |
| p1l0t | soby: yes 1001:1001 | 12:53 |
| fl3sh | indus, thank you | 12:53 |
| indus | fl3sh, not sure about the default OS boot though, ask around\ | 12:53 |
| maxwellian | daniel: There should be a grey line with stuff like PID, CPU %, etc. The first line under that shows the process using the most CPU or memory. | 12:53 |
| Rogasch | no the vm is saved on a NTFS :P but on my machine | 12:53 |
| fl3sh | indus, I will | 12:53 |
| indus | fl3sh, here is some superb documentation for grub 2 | 12:53 |
| indus | !grub2 | 12:53 |
| daniel | not rly | 12:53 |
| ubottu | GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 | 12:53 |
| DasEi | FounDthisOut: that's not the pat of interest, we need your current partiton scheme , so go back to manual partition and picture this | 12:53 |

| soby | p1l0t: no idea mate...sorry | 12:54 |
| soby | anybody here successfully installed Pylucene from the source files?? | 12:54 |
| madav | well.. actually.. i have done the ldap thing.. but my samba server wont show up on the win7 pc-s. | 12:54 |
| Rogasch | IConrad01: but i thougt Ubuntu can handle this | 12:54 |
| maxwellian | daniel: You don't see anything taking up like 90% cpu? | 12:54 |
| IConrad01 | Rogasch: So... | 12:54 |
| sean74 | hi there | 12:54 |
| daniel | hmm | 12:55 |
| indus | i cant say this enough, but not knowing some background about partitioning can destroy all your data | 12:55 |
| sean74 | anyone can guide me to customize the ubuntu 10.04 boot splash | 12:55 |
| daniel | yeah rythmbox | 12:55 |
| IConrad01 | You're running a Windows installation of VBox from Ubuntu using an *.iso located on a remote server? | 12:55 |
| daniel | omg | 12:55 |
| FounDthisOut | DasEi: what do u want me to do exactly ? clicking back no go to step 3 back | 12:55 |
| maxwellian | indus: You really can't say it enough, I'm sure. People will continue to do it. :) | 12:55 |
| maxwellian | daniel: ? | 12:55 |
| Dr_Willis | !plymouth | sean74 | 12:55 |
| indus | FounDthisOut, quit the installation and start f** again | 12:55 |
| Dr_Willis | Hmm No plymouth factoid. odd. | 12:55 |
| FounDthisOut | indus .. did 2 times. . it sticks at step 4 | 12:55 |
| maxwellian | Dr_Willis: Is there a way to see what factoids are available? | 12:56 |
| daniel | rythmbox use loads cpu but thats not permanently because its loading all my tracks. | 12:56 |
| maxwellian | Dr_Willis: Without just trying it? | 12:56 |
| DasEi | FounDthisOut: undo changes, should bring back original state | 12:56 |
| indus | FounDthisOut, thats ok, on gnome panel, add to panel > force quit applet | 12:56 |
| indus | FounDthisOut, but no hmm wait | 12:56 |
| Rogasch | IConrad01: a little confusing: Im running a Ubuntu box where is also the vbox installe. but the files(vbox) a stored on a NFS filesystem. The ISO is on the Server | 12:56 |
| === Sup|Away is now known as SuP|Lobby | ||
| daniel | do someone know a good snapshot program?. | 12:57 |
| indus | FounDthisOut, you mean , when you click on quit button on installer, it dont quit ? | 12:57 |
| maxwellian | daniel: Is it correlated with the high speed fans? Do the fans stop when it's done? | 12:57 |
| IConrad01 | Rogasch: NFS or NTFS? | 12:57 |
| Rogasch | NTFS | 12:57 |
| indus | FounDthisOut it takes time, leave 10 sec | 12:57 |
| daniel | I hope so. | 12:57 |
| p1l0t | soby: you know what it was.. It was a mount directory, I thought it was a physical directory but maybe not | 12:57 |
| IConrad01 | So your filesystem is formatted NTFS but VBox is local to the machine you're currently on? | 12:57 |
| indus | FounDthisOut, btw, that doenst look like ubuntu 10.04 live cd | 12:57 |
| FounDthisOut | indus i click quit it quits .. no hangs .. just please listen .. i start installer, the screen in STEP 4 is blank [ WHITE ] .. i see no drive | 12:57 |
| maxwellian | daniel: So it's still going. Where is it loading tracks from? | 12:57 |
| Rogasch | yes | 12:57 |
| daniel | its loading around 300gb tracks from a drive. to library | 12:58 |
| indus | FounDthisOut, this is not a 10.04 live cd | 12:58 |
| indus | not not not | 12:58 |
| soby | p1l0t: okk....:) | 12:58 |
| FounDthisOut | indus ok | 12:58 |
| Rogasch | IConrad01: is that a problem? | 12:58 |
| indus | FounDthisOut, which ubuntu version is this you try to install ?? | 12:58 |
| IConrad01 | Rogasch: Nope, just identifying the situation. :) | 12:58 |
| maxwellian | daniel: Okay, well, I'm guessing that can be cpu intensive. | 12:58 |
| Rogasch | IConrad01: ok :) | 12:58 |
| daniel | yeah | 12:58 |
| FounDthisOut | indus dont no .. friend give cd .. it boot cd | 12:58 |
| maxwellian | daniel: You said gpu earlier, was that a mistake? | 12:58 |
| daniel | maxwellian do you know any good snapshot program?. | 12:58 |
| indus | FounDthisOut, click on the panel on top , and click help > about | 12:59 |
| daniel | nope its strange by the way | 12:59 |
| daniel | the gpu is 52c its to way high | 12:59 |
| maxwellian | daniel: What's telling you the temp? | 12:59 |
| omenek | Hi, I got a simple question - when I turn on transparency in terminal it isnt a real transparency, only with the background, not apps below the terminal, how can I get a real transparent terminal? | 12:59 |
| daniel | 52C maxwellian | 12:59 |
| indus | daniel, gpu temp of 52 C is completely normal ] | 12:59 |
| FounDthisOut | Thank you for your interest in Ubuntu 8.10- the Intrepid Ibex - released in October 2008 | 12:59 |
| Rogasch | IConrad01: maybe i should simply copy the iso to a local folder and install the VM from there | 12:59 |
| maxwellian | daniel: How do you know what the temp is? | 12:59 |
| daniel | I using conky. | 13:00 |
| indus | FounDthisOut, O M G | 13:00 |
| IConrad01 | Rogasch: And are you running CIFS or NFS for your remote service? | 13:00 |
| Rogasch | IConrad01: but i dont explains why my system freeze | 13:00 |

| tasslehoff | I have 4GB ram, and created a swap partition of 2GB. Was that not very wise? Will I not be able to use suspend? | 13:00 |
| indus | FounDthisOut, please DO NOT install that version, its old and not supported any more | 13:00 |
| IConrad01 | CIFS/SMB | 13:00 |
| Rogasch | IConrad01: SMB | 13:00 |
| FounDthisOut | :( | 13:00 |
| FounDthisOut | i no have other | 13:00 |
| indus | FounDthisOut, please download latest ubuntu | 13:00 |
| indus | FounDthisOut, can you download ? | 13:00 |
| IConrad01 | Okay, so no using VBox directly over network. (It'd work with NFS but NFS is a pain on Ubuntu.) | 13:00 |
| IConrad01 | So sshfs should present it locally. | 13:01 |
| FounDthisOut | no i tell my friend he is stupid | 13:01 |
| indus | FounDthisOut, heh ok | 13:01 |
| iflema | tasslehoff you will not be able to hibernate. | 13:01 |
| IConrad01 | Frankly, I say -- screw it: the disk isn't that large. | 13:01 |
| IConrad01 | Just SCP it over and then remove it after install. | 13:01 |
| IConrad01 | As to why your system froze... | 13:01 |
| FounDthisOut | this version he use too .. but it work nice his system .. i see it .. it has 3D cube too | 13:01 |
| IConrad01 | Chances are your network couldn't keep up with the install process and this caused a kernel panic. | 13:01 |
| IConrad01 | Just guessing. | 13:01 |
| Rogasch | IConrad01: mhh ok | 13:02 |
| indus | FounDthisOut, i know, but ubuntu stop support for this in april 2010 , use new version 10.04 | 13:02 |
| FounDthisOut | indus heh is there 8.10 support room ? | 13:02 |
| indus | !lucid | 13:02 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu 10.04 LTS (Lucid Lynx) is the current release of Ubuntu. Download http://releases.ubuntu.com/10.04/ - Release Info: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/1004 | 13:02 |
| FounDthisOut | ok | 13:02 |
| IConrad01 | Rogasch: Since you were using sshfs to serve the *.iso. | 13:02 |
| IConrad01 | What kind of network you got? | 13:02 |
| asehdev | i just installed ubuntu on my laptop and the scroll function on the keypad is not working.. and advice?? | 13:02 |
| FounDthisOut | thanks for time every one | 13:02 |
| Rogasch | IConrad01: c i cant follow totaly but i think i might know what you mean | 13:02 |
| indus | FounDthisOut, no we can support installation of it, but later you wont get any updates and other bug fixes | 13:02 |
| IConrad01 | Rogasch: what kind of network are you running? | 13:02 |
| indus | FounDthisOut, but i do not recommend you install 8.10 | 13:02 |
| indus | FounDthisOut, if you have internet you can download new ubuntu | 13:03 |
| Rogasch | IConrad01: Waht you mean exactly? | 13:03 |
| indus | FounDthisOut, you have internet ? | 13:03 |
| FounDthisOut | indus .. yes | 13:03 |
| IConrad01 | Rogasch: Your local network. Is it wireless, ethernet? What? | 13:03 |
| IConrad01 | Is it Wireless G, Wireless N? | 13:03 |
| FounDthisOut | indus but very very slow line .. i tell friend to download company | 13:04 |
| Rogasch | IConrad01: ahh, yes its Ethernet | 13:04 |
| p1l0t | FounDthisOut: sudo apt-get upgrade | 13:04 |
| IConrad01 | Rogasch... that should've been fast enough. | 13:04 |
| omenek | Hello, can anyone tell me how to get a real transparent terminal? Not one that transparents to bg not other apps? | 13:04 |
| IConrad01 | Does your machine's CPU support paravirtualization? | 13:04 |
| indus | FounDthisOut, ok just ask him to download 10.04 , latest version and you can come here and we help you | 13:04 |
| Rogasch | IConrad01: yes, so i thought too :) | 13:04 |
| hopeless8009 | can someone explain to me how to mount a device? | 13:04 |
| IConrad01 | omenek: enable 3d graphics. | 13:04 |
| FounDthisOut | indus thanks very much .. but it take more 2 days | 13:04 |
| tasslehoff | iflema, ok. shrinking my root partition, and deleting the current swap partition to make a bigger one should do it then, I hope. Ubuntu will automagically detect a new/changed swap? | 13:04 |
| omenek | - IConrad01, How? | 13:05 |
| IConrad01 | hopeless8009: Hello again! | 13:05 |
| indus | omenek, what do you mean 'real' transparent terminal ?? transparent means you will obviously see the background | 13:05 |
| indus | FounDthisOut, why | 13:05 |
| IConrad01 | omenek: Install the right driver for your graphics card. | 13:05 |
| omenek | indus, yes, but I cant see apps below it, only bg, even when on top of other apps | 13:05 |
| hopeless8009 | IConrad01, bro im sorry i have a satalite connection and it went down | 13:05 |
| Rogasch | IConrad01: but maybe your right, maybe the system cant handle a install over sshfs | 13:05 |
| IConrad01 | hopeless8009: Basically the command is "sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/sda1" | 13:05 |
| iflema | tasslehoff yes.. it will | 13:05 |
| FounDthisOut | indus for download and burn cd to me from friend company is 2 day | 13:05 |
| indus | FounDthisOut, ok | 13:05 |
| IConrad01 | Rogasch: There's protocol overhead w/ sshfs. | 13:05 |
| FounDthisOut | take care have fun | 13:05 |
| arunkumar413 | please help me to debug my network manager. | 13:06 |
| soby | trying to install jcc for pylucene...but 'm getting this error. http://paste.ubuntu.com/458281/ | 13:06 |
| indus | omenek, hmm | 13:06 |
| maxwellian | daniel: Thanks for reminding me of conky, that's cool. :) | 13:06 |
| hopeless8009 | IConrad01, can you brake down that command for me | 13:06 |
| IConrad01 | hopeless8009: In your case, you need to know what the exact device is... | 13:06 |
| indus | omenek, its fake transparent then :D | 13:06 |
| omenek | indus, exactly, so im lookin for a way to make it real ;p | 13:06 |
| IConrad01 | hopeless8009: Certainly. *without* the device attached... execute: "ls /dev" | 13:06 |
| Dr_Willis | tasslehoff: you may need to edit your fstab if its been moved to another /dev/sdXX entry | 13:06 |
| iflema | tasslehoff if you change the location different story, change size OK. | 13:06 |
| hopeless8009 | IConrad01, its a USB external drive | 13:06 |
| p1l0t | !openoffice > p1l0t | 13:06 |
| ubottu | p1l0t, please see my private message | 13:06 |
| daniel | :) hehe np maxwellian | 13:06 |
| daniel | :) | 13:06 |
| Rogasch | IConrad01: i will try to copy the iso and install it from my system | 13:06 |
| ne0|penguin | !ping | 13:06 |
| IConrad01 | Then, plug it in. And again execute "ls /dev" | 13:06 |
| ubottu | pong | 13:06 |
| daniel | I gonna install gdesklets or something | 13:06 |
| Rogasch | IConrad01: thanks for your help | 13:07 |
| abhi_nav | hello? | 13:07 |
| Dr_Willis | daniel: google has their applets also that i find handier then gdesklets | 13:07 |
| IConrad01 | hopeless8009: You're looking for new devices. It'll be something like "sdb1" | 13:07 |
| daniel | maxwellian Im using ubuntu base system with xdm login manager also fluxbox include dolphin | 13:07 |
| ne0|penguin | newklear, do you do ctcp ping to me ? | 13:07 |
| tasslehoff | Dr_Willis, iflema : thanks | 13:07 |
| IConrad01 | hopeless8009: Maybe sdc if you've got more than one hard-drive in the server. | 13:07 |
| maxwellian | daniel: Ubuntu base doesn't install a desktop? You pick your own? | 13:08 |
| hopeless8009 | IConrad01, ok now what | 13:08 |
| IConrad01 | hopeless8009: You found it? | 13:08 |
| daniel | dr_willis np I gonna figure out how it works. | 13:08 |
| Dr_Willis | Base = very minimal system. No X either i belive | 13:08 |
| IConrad01 | hopeless8009: What's it called? | 13:08 |
| daniel | maxwellian I used downloaded ubuntu lucid and didnt chose anything just base system but u have that possible to choose loads stuff like lampp server audio configured system etc. | 13:09 |
| maxwellian | Dr_Willis: Thanks. Good to know. | 13:09 |
| daniel | *remove used | 13:09 |
| maxwellian | daniel: How do you like fluxbox? | 13:09 |
| daniel | I really love it | 13:09 |
| hopeless8009 | IConrad01, do you want it hooked to the computer at this pint | 13:09 |
| daniel | I can send a screenshot | 13:09 |
| arunkumar413 | abhi_nav: hi | 13:09 |
| daniel | of my setup | 13:09 |
| maxwellian | daniel: Sure! | 13:09 |
| IConrad01 | hopeless8009: Yes. | 13:09 |
| abhi_nav | hellooooooooooo arunkumar413 | 13:09 |
| hopeless8009 | IConrad01, i see sdb and sdb1 | 13:09 |
| maxwellian | daniel: Weren't you asking about screenshots a minute ago? :) | 13:09 |
| DocPlatypus | okay this is frustrating | 13:10 |
| arunkumar413 | abhi_nav: do u know how to debug network manager | 13:10 |
| IConrad01 | hopeless8009: So the "sdX#" series ends with sdb1 ? | 13:10 |
| DocPlatypus | I'm trying to hunt down a corrupt library. ldd segfaults on a whole bunch of things and I'm pretty sure I don't need to reinstall them all | 13:10 |
| DocPlatypus | I'm pretty sure it's one bad library somewhere | 13:10 |
| hopeless8009 | IConrad01, yes there is an sdb1......but there is also a sdb | 13:10 |
| daniel | yeah :) | 13:11 |
| daniel | I fixed it :) | 13:11 |
| abhi_nav | arunkumar413, whats the exact issue? | 13:11 |
| IConrad01 | hopeless8009: That is perfectly normal. "sdX" refers to the physical device. "sdX#" refers to the actual partition. | 13:11 |
| maxwellian | arunkumar413: What is going wrong? Why do you think there's a problem with NetworkManager? | 13:11 |
| IConrad01 | hopeless8009: So... here's your command. "sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt" | 13:11 |
| daniel | here you go maxwellian --> http://img188.imageshack.us/i/snapshot1gjx.png/ | 13:11 |
| arunkumar413 | abhi_nav: can connect with my CDMA NIC modem | 13:11 |
| abhi_nav | 'can'? | 13:11 |
| daniel | if you press on the picture you see it bigger. | 13:12 |
| hopeless8009 | IConrad01, what is the /mnt part | 13:12 |
| arunkumar413 | abhi_nav: cant | 13:12 |
| abhi_nav | arunkumar413, this is doc have all info dig it ;) https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NetworkManager0.7 | 13:12 |
| maxwellian | daniel: Hey that looks pretty nice. You covered up your background image though. :) | 13:12 |
| IConrad01 | hopeless8009: the directory Linux will "host" the files found on that hardware. | 13:12 |
| daniel | haha oh lol :P | 13:12 |
| arunkumar413 | abhi_nav: tried and read many documents no use | 13:12 |
| maxwellian | daniel: Is fluxbox pretty good on resources? That's why I have xfce, but I don't like xfce. | 13:13 |
| daniel | its very fast lightweight | 13:13 |
| daniel | I used xfce for some days ago... | 13:13 |
| IConrad01 | hopeless8009: Since Linux doesn't use "C:\" like Windows, **any** directory can be a "C:\" or "D:\" | 13:13 |
| maxwellian | daniel: Hmm...intriguing. | 13:13 |
| IConrad01 | hopeless8009: In this case, we're using "/mnt" as that new "D:\" | 13:13 |
| daniel | but I didnt liked. I wanted to have so much possibles I could that the reason I chosed fluxbox | 13:13 |
| Dr_Willis | maxwellian: fluxbox is ONLY a window manager. :) xfce is a 'desktop envuroment' | 13:13 |
| daniel | yup | 13:13 |
| maxwellian | Dr_Willis: Ah, so I'd still have to install a lot of stuff. :) | 13:14 |
| Alcohol52 | [arunkumar413] is it a dialup? | 13:14 |
| IConrad01 | maxwellian: I just discovered that the Lubuntu .iso is less than 600 MB. | 13:14 |
| daniel | you need a login manager like gnome-session or something to I using xdm a lightweight one too | 13:14 |
| arunkumar413 | abhi_nav: it detects my modem but fails to connect to the network.i'm able to connect with wvdial | 13:14 |
| arunkumar413 | Alcohol52: yes | 13:14 |
| hopeless8009 | IConrad01, so i created /mnt | 13:14 |
| abhi_nav | arunkumar413, http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/text/Modem-HOWTO | 13:14 |
| * maxwellian blinks at IConrad01 | 13:14 | |
| === _rwc is now known as _rwc_afk | ||
| IConrad01 | hopeless8009: Now, what's " ls /mnt " show you? | 13:15 |
| abhi_nav | arunkumar413, see if you find your modem here: http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/text/ | 13:15 |
| daniel | but I got some few problems left. um.. | 13:15 |
| Dr_Willis | maxwellian: Lubuntu is openbox (similer to fluxbox) + a few extra tools for a very minimal desktop. | 13:15 |
| maxwellian | daniel: Did you have to install everything, like NetworkManager etc.? | 13:15 |
| Alcohol52 | [arunkumar413] i have used them. The network manager doesn't show connection. Use Gnomeppp the frontend for wvdial | 13:15 |
| IConrad01 | maxwellian: Specifically it's 521 MB. | 13:15 |
| hopeless8009 | IConrad01, it shows me the files on the hard drive. i have some packages i need to install off of it can you help | 13:15 |
| IConrad01 | hopeless8009: No problem. :) | 13:15 |
| daniel | no maxwellian I just used sudo apt-get install xorg fluxbox xdm | 13:15 |
| Dr_Willis | maxwellian: personally for 'light' i use Fluxbox, or windowmaker or icewm (for the WM) + Rox-filer (for the file maanger) | 13:15 |
| daniel | that what you need just | 13:15 |
| arunkumar413 | Alcohol52: but wvdial is taking more than 3 min to connect | 13:15 |
| IConrad01 | hopeless8009: Okay, this is gonna be fancy, but just cut-and-paste it directly from here into your terminal... | 13:16 |
| daniel | then also a file manager like thunar, nautilus, dolphin, fmaker etc | 13:16 |
| sinistrad | Anyone know in kdenlive how to do a transition between clips and also have a text overlay (title text)? My output goes black when I hit the overlay. I have a photo of my project --> http://imagebin.ca/view/l-LVIT4.html | 13:16 |
| abhi_nav | arunkumar413, yes install gnomeppp | 13:16 |
| maxwellian | Dr_Willis, I hardly need a file manager, but I guess it comes up sometimes... :) | 13:16 |
| Alcohol52 | arunkumar check the settings | 13:16 |
| IConrad01 | hopeless8009: sudo find /mnt | grep .deb | xargs -I X sudo dpkg -i X | 13:16 |
| hopeless8009 | IConrad01, the computer im talking form isn't the server | 13:16 |
| arunkumar413 | Alcohol52: its the same thing with gnomeppp. | 13:16 |
| ivano | #ubuntu-it | 13:16 |
| maxwellian | daniel: What's handling your internet connection? | 13:16 |
| abhi_nav | ivano, /j #ubuntu-it | 13:16 |
| arunkumar413 | Alcohol52: settings are ok | 13:16 |
| IConrad01 | hopeless8009: Argh. Well, that's xargs -(capital i) | 13:17 |
| maxwellian | Dr_Willis, Have you used any tiled window managers? I've looked into it, but each one has some major drawback in my eyes. | 13:17 |
| Alcohol52 | [arunkumar413] you can see what is going on when you type wvdial in commandline | 13:17 |
| arunkumar413 | Alcohol52: am able to connect in 9.04 | 13:17 |
| hopeless8009 | IConrad01, i dont know what you mean | 13:17 |
| IConrad01 | And those " | " are the shift-button+ backslash | 13:17 |
| daniel | ubuntu ground system .does that but I installed a manager to cause when Im using wireless network (wicd) a easy and powerful one) | 13:17 |
| IConrad01 | hopeless8009: Look at the command I just gave you. | 13:17 |
| Alcohol52 | [arunkumar413] as far as i know it took about 20-30 sec max for me. I don't use now | 13:17 |
| IConrad01 | hopeless8009: sudo find /mnt | grep .deb | xargs -I X sudo dpkg -i X | 13:17 |
| Dr_Willis | maxwellian: i fullscreen everything normally. i dont like the tiled stuff. except for the 'terminator' terminal program | 13:18 |
| daniel | dr_willis I got problem my music just stops play sometimes. why? It doesnt matter which player I using. | 13:18 |
| arunkumar413 | Alcohol52:for my modem its taking 3 min | 13:18 |
| maxwellian | daniel: Yeah, I have wicd too. | 13:18 |
| daniel | its nice :) | 13:18 |
| IConrad01 | Dr_Willis: Terminator is the zhisshizzle. | 13:18 |
| Dr_Willis | daniel: check dmesg output when it stops. could be Pulse crashing, or some driver issues | 13:18 |
| maxwellian | Dr_Willis, I fullscreen everything too, but I just don't like using the mouse if I can avoid it. | 13:18 |
| daniel | hmm so I start the app also from terminal to see that?. | 13:18 |
| IConrad01 | Dr_Willis: I have been known to enable X11 forwarding *just* to use Terminator. | 13:18 |
| Alcohol52 | [arunkumar413] have you seen wvdial.conf file | 13:18 |
| arunkumar413 | Alcohol52: ya | 13:19 |
| maxwellian | Dr_Willis, Even having to click the fullscreen button irritates me. | 13:19 |
| p1l0t | !zhisshizzle | 13:19 |
| hopeless8009 | IConrad01, ok so what now i did the command | 13:19 |
| p1l0t | lol | 13:19 |
| IConrad01 | hopeless8009: What did it say? | 13:19 |
| erdem | i am unable to get nvidia drivers running. installed the nvidia-current pkg but after doing nvidia-xconfig Xorg wont start anymore. saying smth like nvidia driver not found | 13:19 |
| Dr_Willis | maxwellian: most apps support F11 for that. or you can make compiz do it. or run the maximus program | 13:19 |
| IConrad01 | p1l0t: Really, now. :-P | 13:19 |
| hopeless8009 | IConrad01, it looks like its installing stuff | 13:20 |
| p1l0t | :P | 13:20 |
| IConrad01 | hopeless8009: Once it's done doing its thing... and this is on the server, right? | 13:20 |
| hopeless8009 | IConrad01, it says there were errors | 13:20 |
| IConrad01 | hopeless8009: Once it's done doing its thing, run " wicd-curses " | 13:20 |
| Dissident | My ati radeon fried 10 mins ago. Fan stopped. On my mobile now. Heading off to buy new gpu now. Nvidia is supposedly a bettrr option on linux. Any comments? | 13:20 |
| IConrad01 | hopeless8009: Frak. What errors? | 13:20 |
| arunkumar413 | Alcohol52: do u think that running NM in terminal will help to catch the bug | 13:20 |
| maxwellian | Dr_Willis, Hah, compiz. That's never been an option for my POS computer. | 13:20 |
| erdem | Dissident, yes it is | 13:21 |
| erdem_ | i am unable to get nvidia drivers running. installed the nvidia-current pkg but after doing nvidia-xconfig Xorg wont start anymore. saying smth like nvidia driver not found | 13:21 |
| DocPlatypus | Dissident: nVidia doesn't give a shit about the free software movement. I'd avoid and stick with ATi which has a prayer of working with free (GPL) drivers | 13:21 |
| NotEmo | Does anybody here have libflashplayer.so for amd64? Adobe removed the library and now I can't download it D: | 13:21 |
| Alcohol52 | [arunkumar413] network manage has no role. play around with wvdial conf | 13:21 |
| hopeless8009 | IConrad01, dpkg: dependency problems prevent config of wicd | 13:21 |

| mika__ | hi, i'm setting up an ubuntu server machine which will be a web server to manage support tickets (using otrs)... what should i install on a server for it protection, maintain, tools, etc? | 13:21 |
| IConrad01 | hopeless8009: What files? You'll have to repeat the process to get those dependencies, I fear. | 13:22 |
| arunkumar413 | Alcohol52: what could be the problem | 13:22 |
| daniel | dr_willis when I start it I get Plug error unable to active plugin magnatune store I found it in plugins but I cant do anything I cant use it or remove hmm check out --> http://img96.imageshack.us/f/snapshot2sx.png/ | 13:22 |
| godbod | erdem > to use nvidia drivers you need to install nvidia xserver | 13:22 |

| p1l0t | Dissident: not sure I have had diffculty getting nvidia drivers in the past... but that was many moons ago maybe things have changed but I use all ATi with Ubuntu | 13:22 |
| IConrad01 | DocPlatypus: noveau? | 13:23 |
| DocPlatypus | IConrad01: doesn't do 3d | 13:23 |
| IConrad01 | DocPlatypus: yet. But still. fglrx is OSS. But right now nVidia's closed-source drivers far outperform ATI's open and closed-source. | 13:23 |
| Alcohol52 | [arunkumar413] doesn't you see problem while you connect in commandline? Connect from command line | 13:23 |
| FounDthisOut | fixabe ? | 13:23 |

| ivo_ | #ubuntu-beginners | 13:25 |
| Alcohol52 | just type sudo wvdial. It will connect if your wvdial.conf file is ok. | 13:25 |
| IConrad01 | hopeless8009: So... sudo umount /dev/sdb1 | 13:25 |
| IConrad01 | hopeless8009: And then plug the external drive into your network-capable machine and execute sudo apt-get install wicd-daemon --download-only | 13:25 |

| abhi_nav | arunkumar413, but why not wvdial? | 13:26 |
| IConrad01 | I forgot to tell you to get out of it. | 13:27 |
| arunkumar413 | abhi_nav: wvdial is taking 3 or more min. to connect | 13:27 |
| abhi_nav | arunkumar413, and nm ws connecting in less time? | 13:27 |
| hopeless8009 | IConrad01, it still says its busy | 13:28 |
| IConrad01 | Hrm... | 13:28 |
| arunkumar413 | abhi_nav: ya,and i used NM in 9.04 | 13:28 |
| Alcohol52 | [arunkumar413] as far as i know network manager does not support wvdial (dialup). use gnome ppp it is equivalent to network manager | 13:28 |
| DocPlatypus | YAY! I think I may have fixed it | 13:28 |
| Lefantomedurezo | Hello | 13:28 |
| abhi_nav | arunkumar413, hmm | 13:28 |
| DocPlatypus | the solution was to just reinstall dependencies until I found the one that was corrupt | 13:28 |
| Lefantomedurezo | I can't config the fancontrol | 13:28 |
| Lefantomedurezo | http://www.insectes-net.fr/xylocope/xylocop3.htm | 13:28 |

| maxwellian | IConrad01, wicd-curses didn't show up in the repos until 10.04? Is that right? | 13:34 |
| IConrad01 | maxwellian: I believe it's a recent feature, yes. | 13:34 |
| godbod | then you need have an another problem | 13:34 |
| IConrad01 | But you could always download it straight from the Debian repos, for older Ubuntu distros | 13:34 |
| godbod | sorry I can't help | 13:35 |
| godbod | good luck | 13:35 |
| Alcohol52 | [arunkumar413] i think there is no command line for network manager(current version 0.8) They are scheduling command line for version 0.81. Look at their website. | 13:35 |
| maxwellian | arunkumar413: IConrad01 is talking about command line for wicd, an alternative to network manager. Might want to listen in. | 13:36 |
| arunkumar413 | Alcohol52: will reinstalling the nm will solve the problem | 13:36 |

| IConrad01 | sergeykish: I'll again recommend the multiboot approach. :) ( http://www.panticz.de/MultiBootUSB ) Quite useful for multiple options and doesn't require the *entire* USB drive. | 14:07 |

| Shvonder | norbi905: of cause you can install on your SSD whatever you want | 14:08 |
| norbi905 | IConrad01: This is true, however, unfortunately it is only a 30GB SSD. I'd like to have my media on the 250GB as it would not fit. This is why i'd rather have only crutial things that would make it go faster on the SSD. | 14:08 |
| IConrad01 | sergeykish: You're on Arch... fair enough. It's actually easier under GRUB than it is w/ GRUB2. | 14:08 |
| IConrad01 | norbi905: Then just stick /boot onto the SSD. | 14:08 |

| norbi905 | arand: Since there are now 2 drives connected sda is the SSD and sdb is the 250GB regular drive. I have made 240GB /home and 10GB swap. That drive now has 2 partitions as is full. Is it now safe to assume that since there is no more space available on that drive, that all other stuff will go onto the SSD? Such as / /boot /bin etc..? | 14:30 |

| slinker1 | KrAsHeR: ctrl +l will let you edit the line by hand | 14:32 |
| indus | arunkumar413, no i have seen it | 14:32 |
| indus | arunkumar413, IN edit connections, uncheck all authentication protocols and check | 14:33 |
| norbi905 | arand: However, would it not be enough to specify / partition for SSD? Does that not include all others such as /bin /usr /var? I would hardly think that you'd have to specify each of those. | 14:33 |

| KrAsHeR | well i have both windows xp and windows 7 on my network... i will try to connect to a XP one | 14:34 |
| indus | arunkumar413, have you posted a thread on ubuntuforums.org ? do that too | 14:35 |
| Dr_Willis | KrAsHeR: the 'findsmb' and 'smbtree' may also give a few clues on what shares are 'seeable' | 14:35 |
| slinker1 | KrAsHeR: had the same issue @home with a win7 box that worked there there is a writeup somewhere probably the forums about it | 14:35 |
| norbi905 | arand: Thanks, that makes life easier. So before I wipe my existing drives I'd like to make sure I have it set-up properly. My 250GB has a /home and swap partition. I then created the SSD with mount / . So i'm under the assumption that everything other than /home will go on SSD. Is this a good idea or am I barking up the wrong tree? | 14:35 |
| indus | arunkumar413, does your card have enough refill ? | 14:35 |
| Dr_Willis | KrAsHeR: they are handy command line tools to remember | 14:35 |

| alienkid10 | I install Ubuntu and the bootloader to sdb2 and I have tried to get NTLDR to load GRUB2 by copying (using dd) the first sector of sdb2 but when I hit the option in NTLDR it just gives me a blinking cursor. sdb is an external HDD. | 14:36 |
| norbi905 | arand: Thanks, here goes nothing :) | 14:37 |
| arand | seanty: norbi905: Indeed, might be an idea to not have /tmp on the SSD. | 14:37 |
| Dr_Willis | KrAsHeR: ive seen similer errors with some windows box. the wifes pc would do that when she was wireless. but would when when she was wired to the network.. I never did figure it out. | 14:37 |
| Dr_Willis | KrAsHeR: see if 'findsmb' have similer information about that ALEXandre-pc ? | 14:37 |
| KrAsHeR | well my ubuntu is on a laptop running wireless | 14:38 |
| KrAsHeR | with findsmb i don't get any info on ALEXANDRE-PC | 14:38 |
| Dr_Willis | KrAsHeR: I never did figure out if it was the wireless router. or the pc that was doing the blocking. | 14:38 |
| norbi905 | arand: Hmm, I missed that one. Well it's formated now, how hard would it be to move /tmp over? Or is it even possible? | 14:38 |
| Dr_Willis | KrAsHeR: I dont even have the same setup any more. so i cant even recall what tests i did to get it working. | 14:38 |

| indus | arunkumar413, also found this http://abish.wordpress.com/2008/04/18/using-cdma-wireless-modem-in-ubuntu/ | 14:40 |

| abhi_nav | indus, its really great!!! I like it.!!! :) | 14:40 |
| indus | arunkumar413, enter correct values though | 14:40 |
| KrAsHeR | i was so happy because for the first time i've found a distro which gave support for my laptop without any hoops... well.. one now... the sharing system | 14:40 |
| rian | !ip | 14:40 |
| indus | abhi_nav, ya its fantastic :) but how are you playing it ? | 14:40 |
| Alcohol52 | [arunkumar413] I think you have had enough today. As I mentioned earlier Your cdma modem is not supported by network manager or wicd (look at their website). Wvdial and its frontend is the only best solution. my suggestion as a buddy is try to configure gnome ppp properly. (I had personal experiences with these devices). Search ubuntuforums(eg http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1312155). If it works with network manager or wvdial inform me. | 14:41 |

| indus | abhi_nav, with which player | 14:41 |
| alienkid10 | anyone know how to chainload GRUB2 from NTLDR? | 14:41 |
| rian | abhi_nav, not mine, i wanna see what wireless ip that i use. | 14:42 |
| abhi_nav | indus, that streamtuner ( "I think") automatically installed audocious. and it is automatically launching it to play. I now dont remember is I was installed that or streamtuner install it | 14:42 |
| abhi_nav | !details | rian | 14:42 |
| ubottu | rian: 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 ..." | 14:42 |
| indus | abhi_nav, lol great, i shall try it tonight then | 14:43 |
| arand | norbi905: Shouldn't be too hard I don't think, just create a new partition with ext4 (or other FS if you care), and specify it as the mount point for /tmp in /etc/fstab, and then I think it should be picked up at next boot... | 14:43 |
| bastid_raZor | rian: ifconfig will show you your internal ip. if behind a router. | 14:43 |
| abhi_nav | indus sure you give try :) | 14:43 |
| indus | arunkumar413, dont be disappointed :) iam sure it will work | 14:43 |
| rian | thanks, bastid_raZor | 14:43 |

| norbi905 | arand: Sounds good, thanks for the help. | 14:43 |
| seanty | alienkid10, "dd" the first 512 bytes of grub2 MBR or so called stage1 to a file. Copy to windows and append it to boot.ini | 14:44 |

| alienkid10 | seanty: get blinking cursor when trying to boot it's entre | 14:44 |

| abuayyoub | hi can someone help me with a program called HellaNZB? | 14:45 |
| jkinable | When i create a file as a local user, I cannot remove that file when I run: sudo rm <file> I can however remove that file as a local user. How is it possible that sudo lacks the rights to remove a local user file? | 14:45 |

| MamboKing | hey all | 14:45 |
| alienkid10 | a file I needed but forgot | 14:45 |
| MamboKing | has anyone here used ubuntu server clustering? | 14:45 |
| seanty | alienkid10, I suspect the file is not ok. Create a junk partition of say 10MB . Install your MBR there. Then dd that and use it | 14:46 |
| arand | alienkid10: I don't know about NTLDR, seanty probably does, more. | 14:46 |
| KrAsHeR | i've turned off the hamachi2 cli | 14:46 |
| KrAsHeR | now smbtree shows all machines on my network | 14:46 |

| mh__ | hi, i want to upgrade to ubuntu, but there's not enough disk space on the disk where its currently installed. Is it possible to download the packages on the other free disk? | 14:47 |
| arand | seanty: alienkid10: Or simply install grub "mbr" to your ubuntu partition, and copy from there... | 14:47 |
| alienkid10 | seanty: I have tried 1. dd of=/dev/sdb2 if=linux.mbr bs=512 count=1 no go then installed GRUB to MBR of sdb and used sdb as input same as using sdb2 blinking cursor after selecting it from NTLDR | 14:47 |
| seanty | arand, that should work too. | 14:47 |
| MamboKing | mh___: just mount another drive to the path where your updater stores its files | 14:48 |
| klenix | ubuntu application for firmware flasher. | 14:48 |
| arand | mh__: You can symlink the apt cache to a folder on the other drive. | 14:48 |
| erUSUL | mh__: easiest way would be to link /var/cache/apt/archives/ to a folder in the other partition ( or mount --bind ) | 14:48 |
| Adola | Hi! Is there a way to change the functions some of my mouse buttons have? | 14:48 |
| seanty | alienkid10, I did not install MBR to sdb. Instead, mount windows and directly copy linux.mbr to the root partition (c drive) | 14:49 |

| Kavavashi | i run ubuntu 10.04 with intel p4 3ghz, 1gb ddr2 ram. my system is with fluxbox desktopmanager. my memory is everytime 70-80% overload in idle status | 14:49 |

| jkinable | Any clue why you would get: mkdir: cannot create directory ...:permission denied while you try to create a folder in a home directory using sudo? | 14:49 |

| Dr_Willis | alienkid10: I keep windowws on sda, and linux on sdb. so i always tell insstaller to put it on 'sdb' and i do have the bios default to boot sdb | 15:02 |
| Dr_Willis | I never chainload from NTLDR. | 15:02 |
| alienkid10 | Dr_Willis: that's where we differ | 15:02 |
| Dr_Willis | I dont see the point in letting windows do that job. :) | 15:03 |
| seanty | alienkid10, you could try "sudo grub-install --recheck /dev/sda2" | 15:03 |
| alienkid10 | sure I would need to reboot back to sdb from BIOS | 15:04 |
| alienkid10 | or do I need to do it via LiveCD? | 15:04 |
| seanty | alienkid10, yeah. Or you could do it via liveCD. But the command changes. | 15:04 |
| alienkid10 | ok will reboot then rejoin | 15:04 |
| seanty | alienkid10, you would have to mount your / partition and give a different command | 15:04 |
| Dr_Willis | If you can boot the system with a bios menu/change. it may be easier to do it that way. | 15:04 |
| alienkid10 | brb | 15:04 |
| Dr_Willis | less work. :) | 15:05 |

| z3rongod | Not an ubuntu question, but maybe some of you might know a way to this, i'm thinking you might have met or know a problem which you've avoided once. I have both ubuntu and windows on dual boot. I was wondering if there is a way to mess windows' boot by modifying one of its files with ubuntu, with the posibility to undo without a windows reinstall. The main point would be to "disable" windows... | 15:55 |
| z3rongod | ...so my temporary room mate cannot access it, but only ubuntu while he is staying with me. | 15:55 |
| alienkid10 | when using the other partition do I set root dir as that partition? | 15:55 |

| gent_at_altin | Can somebody help ??? | 15:56 |
| alienkid10 | thankyou | 15:56 |
| IConrad01 | z3rongod: Just remove the entry for Windows from your GRUB. | 15:56 |
| THE_GFR|WORK | z3rongod: remove windows from the boot loader, and load it back in when you get back | 15:56 |
| alienkid10 | why don't I just put GRUB on a floppy and then copy it from there? | 15:56 |
| seanty | alienkid10, yes you have to set the root dir if you are not in that partition having the boot files | 15:57 |
| csarven | Dr_Willis Thanks much. Back to regular programming. Need to remember this :) I fudged my xorg. Apparently, I can't just create a xorg.conf file and be done with it. | 15:57 |

| Kyo | Hello everybody. I have a problem with the console on Ubuntu | 16:56 |
| infid | does ubuntu not use slapd for ldap anymore? i just installed ldap-utils in lucid lynx, but it didnt ask me to enter a password for slapd nor do i have /etc/ldap/slapd.conf, just /etc/ldap/ldap.conf | 16:56 |
| dsnyders | kyo, you'll have to describe your problem better than that. | 16:56 |
| Kyo | Ok.. well I eliminate the history of the console. now I can not navigate up. The bar does not move apparently is disabled | 16:58 |
| Kangarooo | aptitude and synaptic is using apt-get yes? but what apt-get uses? i want to know whats the main programm of processes of thees programms or is it just apt-get the final one? | 16:58 |
| jpds | Kangarooo: curl? | 16:58 |
| jpds | Kangarooo: Some HTTP library? | 16:59 |

| sjm | Kyo, <shift>+<Page up> doesn't go back? | 17:03 |
| Kyo | I dont need to go back to the history. I cant navigate up. Like if I do ipconfig I just can see a half of the information | 17:03 |
| infid | kyo use a pager: ipconfig | less | 17:03 |
| sjm | kyo, I don't use the scroll bar in the terminal window. Just takes up extra space. Just use <shift>+<Page up> to scroll back | 17:04 |
| infid | then the up and down arrows or j/k, etc | 17:04 |
| ziggystar | Someone here who knows a bit about dbus and NetworkManager and would assist me with a problem (bug)? | 17:04 |
| Kyo | ipconfig is just an example. What I have to do to enable the bar? | 17:05 |
| infid | does lucid lynx still use slapd for ldap? | 17:05 |
| ziggystar | uh, tried setting up slapd this week. Went to apacheDS. | 17:05 |

| SuperMiguel | looking at how much memory, and cpu speed current systems have, can you tell the difference between gnome and openbox? | 17:08 |
| sjm | SuperMiguel, "current systems" also include netbooks and nettops. | 17:08 |

| sjm | SuperMiguel, I haven't done much comparison, as I use openbox on my netbook. It "seems" to run a little better, but no concrete evidence. | 17:10 |

| BluesKaj | fbxxkl, do you want an ongoing monitor showing what apps are using cpu and memeory / | 17:11 |

| sjm | SuperMiguel, right now I'm on a miniitx as my desktop (1.2 GHz Geode Processer, 1GB RAM, running openbox (basically LXDE ubuntu) | 17:12 |

| juken | Can anyone tell why my microphone isn't working based on these pictures: http://i.imgur.com/OEl2w.png ; http://i.imgur.com/apegR.png ; http://i.imgur.com/Nvcx1.png ; http://i.imgur.com/tmA5L.png | 17:12 |
| fbxxkl | BluesKaj That is good or somethign that can just show me what I have installed like, CPU/Graphics/HDD general information | 17:13 |
| fbxxkl | memory | 17:13 |
| SuperMiguel | LXDE is openbox? | 17:13 |
| SuperMiguel | sjm, ^ | 17:13 |
| mek8630 | guntbert: I am in here trying to find someone that has used it because gOS doesn't have it's own channel. And there is hardly any support for it. It was just a quick question I don't need you pointing out the obvious | 17:13 |
| BluesKaj | fbxxkl, open a terminal and type , lspci | 17:13 |
| m4tr1x | hi | 17:14 |
| sjm | SuperMiguel, yes, LXDE uses openbox plus a couple of things for panels and sessions (lxpanel, lxsession) | 17:14 |
| norbi905 | Hello, hope I can ask this here. I installed Ubuntu 10.04, after which I installed VirtualBox. For some reason, through VirtualBox when I try to install Windows 7, it keeps asking me for the drive. I have installed this many times, and never had this problem. I created a virtual drive for it, but for some reason it's not picking it up. Any ideas? Thanks for any input. | 17:14 |
| mek8630 | guntbert: besides its based off of Ubuntu anyways | 17:14 |
| m4tr1x | a procedure to commit a kernel patch? | 17:14 |
| sjm | SuperMiguel, LXDE also uses PCFileMan as the file manager. | 17:14 |
| mek8630 | guntbert: just not an official derivative | 17:14 |
| Kyo | just a question. How to enable the history again? | 17:14 |
| fbxxkl | ioh wow. Great, THanks Blueskaj | 17:14 |
| knxville | norbi905: where is your win7 media? | 17:14 |
| SuperMiguel | sjm, cool didnt know. i may take a look at that. did u install, lubuntu? or installed ubuntu and then installed lxde? | 17:14 |
| guntbert | Kyo: right click in the terminal window, select profiles, profile preferences, check "show menu bar ..." , when you open a new terminal the bar should be there again | 17:15 |
| macintux___ | norbi905: Is it not picking up the virtual hard drive or the disk? | 17:15 |
| anomie_helper | Hi juken --- your microphone is muted on http://i.imgur.com/tmA5L.png | 17:15 |
| norbi905 | knxville: Win7 media is off of a DVD. The installation starts, but it stalls at the point where Windows looks for a hard drive. Error comes up something along the lines of "install driver for hard disk" | 17:15 |
| Kangarooo | hello. apt-get remove just removes package. but what config files also with deleting package deletes apt-get purge? | 17:15 |
| norbi905 | macintux___: It's not picking up the 10GB virtual disk that I created for it. | 17:15 |
| knxville | norbi905: ahh.. sorry, i have no idea then.. | 17:16 |
| macintux___ | norbi905: Have you tied that drive to the settings in the win7 virtual? | 17:16 |
| BluesKaj | fbxxkl, and if you want to monitor apps , cpu and memory usage , look for System Monitor in applications | 17:16 |
| sjm | SuperMiguel, neither, really, this desktop has been running several ubuntu derivations through various upgrades from 8.04 (Gnome, Enlightenment, Gnome-Enlightenment, Xubuntu, and now basically LXDE/lubuntu) not a direct install from lubuntu. | 17:16 |
| oCean_ | norbi905: do you have an installation disk for another OS to try? Just to see if that one could pick up the disk? | 17:16 |
| infid | where can i get an updated tutorial on installing openldap in ubuntu 10.04? | 17:17 |
| Kyo | still not working. I can see the bar. But the bar is not enable | 17:17 |
| norbi905 | macintux___: I believe so. Under "storage" for that VM it states that I have a SATA Controller and the drive is Windows_7_x64.vdi. I changed it to SATA, since i thought maybe IDE controller didn't work | 17:17 |
| guntbert | Kyo: for the history type chmod 0600 $HOME/.bash_history | 17:17 |
| SuperMiguel | sjm, gotcha | 17:17 |
| norbi905 | oCean_: Umm , I believe I have Vista installation disk. I can give that a try | 17:18 |
| Kyo | guntbert, ok | 17:18 |
| oCean_ | norbi905: or even better: an Ubuntu installation :) Also specific virtualbox support in #vbox | 17:18 |
| macintux___ | norbi905: Have you enabled PAE in Vbox? just a shot in the dark. | 17:18 |
| dsnyders | kyo, the chmod 000 .bash_history made it unwriteable. | 17:19 |
| norbi905 | Could it possibly be permission issues? I remember when I did it before I had to use sudo to start vbox. But now I can start it as a regular user. | 17:19 |
| norbi905 | macintux___: I tried #vbox, unfortunately no help :( | 17:19 |

| Kyo | my history is back but my bar still disable | 17:20 |
| sjm | Kyo, in the future, to clear your history, you don't need to delete the file, just issue the command "history -c" | 17:20 |
| macintux___ | norbi905: Its under settings for the particular VM under system >Processor | 17:21 |
| sjm | Kyo, did you try right clicking on the window and editing the profile? | 17:21 |
| Kyo | sjm, Yes. I read that too late | 17:21 |
| norbi905 | macintux___: It's enabled. | 17:21 |
| oCean_ | norbi905: just realize that errors about missing drivers is a totally different issue from missing drives. | 17:21 |

| bluebaron | how can i tell if flash is getting direct rednering for videos. my cpu is on fire. | 17:21 |
| macintux___ | norbi905: So its just saying there arent any disks? | 17:22 |
| norbi905 | oCean_: It's asking for the driver for the controller is what it seems. Which is strange, since it's a basic IDE/SATA driver which should be on Win7 install disk. | 17:22 |
| norbi905 | macintux___: Yes, shows up with no disk, and asks for the driver for controller i'm assuming, since it can't find disk | 17:23 |

| * Aciid hugs macintux___ THANK YOU <3 | 17:36 | |
| sjm | hopeless8009, you need to set up nfs on the server (nfs-server) and "export" the directories you want to share and then "mount" them on the client | 17:36 |
| macintux___ | Aciid: Awww, Love you too. :) lol | 17:36 |

| anr78 | I'm having issues with Intel Wifi 6000 on a Dell Studio 15. It worked after I installed 10.04, but during the first "apt-get upgrade", it died, and didn't come back. It says wireless is disabled, and I'm not allowed to re-enable it. | 18:59 |
| abhijit_ | eblume yes. its gov. org | 18:59 |
| MaMoUs | eblume: same error | 18:59 |
| kc7zzv | aryko: That will work if you reboot afterwords. | 18:59 |
| shadyabhi | mabus44: Are you sure, your "sudo apt-get update" completedly successfull without any errors.. Because I really doubt that | 19:00 |
| clammitt | any good new apps coming out to play with? | 19:00 |
| shadyabhi | mabus44: I mean thats what the errors say | 19:00 |
| ohzie | juken, Have you tried rebooting with the headset not plugged in, and then plugging it in afterwards? I know that sounds stupid but trust me on this, sometimes it helps. | 19:00 |
| eblume | abhijit_: Forgive me if I'm being a naive foreigner but I remember hearing that many ISPs in Indian cities have massive overcrowding and bandwidth issues. Maybe try a private ISP? See if you get similar issues with the same computer in another location? | 19:00 |
| bhuvi | mabus44, shadyabhi, open synaptic package manager and check whether it shows any error msgs | 19:00 |
| juken | ohzie: yes :) | 19:00 |
| coz_ | clammitt, like waht did you have in mind? | 19:00 |
| shadyabhi | eblume: You are true... INdia is bandwidth starved country.. and its damn expensive as compared to other countries | 19:01 |
| abhijit_ | eblume ok. I wll check. the one i have is one i can afford thats why | 19:01 |
| coz_ | clammitt, graphics... system tools... etc etc | 19:01 |
| eblume | MaMoUs: No idea then. Some googling shows that pidgin can segfault with the Enlightenment sound daemon, I have no idea how to help you if that is the issue. | 19:01 |
| ohzie | juken, Okay, my next guess is going to be googling pulseaudio and USB headset. | 19:01 |
| eblume | abhijit_: I feel for you. | 19:01 |
| ohzie | but I'm not seeing anything | 19:01 |
| mabus44 | bhuvi: ok | 19:01 |
| clammitt | coz_: anything.. except socail media stuff. anything good | 19:01 |
| RProgrammer | hopeless8009: Copy and paste this exactly: mount -t nfs 192.168.1.70:/mnt /home/john/Desktop | 19:01 |
| MaMoUs | eblume: my pidgin sound is muted | 19:01 |
| eblume | MaMoUs: muted, or switched off entirely? | 19:01 |
| coz_ | clammitt, wel,,, there is mypaint... which is a natural media paint program similar to Corel Painter | 19:02 |
| juken | ohzie: I've spent countless hours in the past week and a half Googling around for the solution, that's why I eventually posted on the Ubuntu forum and I've also asked in #pulseaudio but no one seems to be able to help. | 19:02 |
| MaMoUs | eblume: muted | 19:02 |
| RProgrammer | hopeless8009: home is not hom and case matters | 19:02 |
| clammitt | coz_: interesting | 19:02 |
| abhijit_ | eblume : thanks for replying. when you get this msg I may not be here but thanks. I am now shutting down. and I wll check tommorow if they solve this issue. bye :) | 19:02 |
| ohzie | juken, I've found a post that may help | 19:02 |
| juken | ohzie: I'd love to see :) | 19:02 |
| ohzie | juken, It basically says switch every preference to alsa and uninstall pulseaudio. =/ | 19:02 |
| ohzie | http://linuxowns.wordpress.com/2008/07/08/how-i-got-my-usb-headset-to-work/ | 19:02 |
| coz_ | clammitt, if you decide to run that I would suggest compiling it from git however ... it is simple | 19:02 |
| eblume | MaMoUs: if the volume is just set to 0 then it might still be sending data to the daemon, which could still cause the crash. But I really don't know. I recommend looking to google. | 19:02 |
| MaMoUs | eblume: and when i start ET i close and give error in the same sec | 19:02 |
| juken | ohzie: yea, I've seen that as well. | 19:02 |
| ohzie | juken, =\ | 19:02 |
| RProgrammer | mabus44: The dependencies work in my 10.04 install, but I'm using the amd64 repo instead of i386 | 19:02 |
| mabus44 | bhuvi: no errors...but when i tried installing vlc from synaptic then this is what i got...http://pastie.org/1028470 | 19:02 |
| juken | ohzie: when asking around about switching from pulseaudio back to alsa I was told it was a bad idea. | 19:02 |
| eblume | MaMoUs: yes this sounds very much like a sound daemon problem | 19:03 |
| eblume | MaMoUs: do you have a sound card on your computer? | 19:03 |
| MaMoUs | how to fix ? | 19:03 |
| hopeless8009 | same output says something about wrong file system type | 19:03 |
| === Zol is now known as zolomon | ||
| coz_ | clammitt, there is something named "easystroke" which is a systemic gesture recognition application meaning you can open ...close.. run compiz ...anything with mouse gestures | 19:03 |
| ohzie | juken, There may be some truth to that. I haven't had any problems with pulseaudio, but I also do not use a usb headset. | 19:03 |
| MaMoUs | eblume: i have but the one inside the PC (internal) | 19:03 |
| mabus44 | RProgrammer: So wat do you suggest? | 19:03 |
| ohzie | bluetooth works fine though | 19:03 |
| hopeless8009 | RProgrammer: same output says something about wrong file system type | 19:03 |
| clammitt | i use easystroke. it's buggy as hell under the version i'm using. but good when it works | 19:03 |
| === mike is now known as Guest18987 | ||
| eblume | MaMoUs: most sound cards made in the last decade are good enough to not use sound daemons at all. If you've got one like that (I don't know how to check), try googling for "disable ubuntu sound daemon" | 19:04 |
| bhuvi | shadyabhi, i think mabus44 's apt-get update didnt complete successfully | 19:04 |
| clammitt | did someone link me to getdeb.net ? i cant find that message but i got a notification | 19:04 |
| coz_ | clammitt, buggy??? wow thats the first time I heard that | 19:04 |
| RProgrammer | mabus44: It really does sound like apt-get update failed | 19:04 |
| shadyabhi | bhuvi: I also think the same | 19:04 |
| hopeless8009 | RProgrammer:mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on 192.168.1.70:/mnt, | 19:04 |
| hopeless8009 | missing codepage or helper program, or other error | 19:04 |
| hopeless8009 | (for several filesystems (e.g. nfs, cifs) you might | 19:04 |
| hopeless8009 | need a /sbin/mount.<type> helper program) | 19:04 |

| juken | ohzie: what bothers me is it was working originally. | 19:04 |
| clammitt | coz_: yep. let me ask you: do you use Advanced gestures? | 19:04 |
| mabus44 | RProgrammer: wait i will show you the output of my apt-get update | 19:04 |
| MaMoUs | eblume: oky thx very much | 19:04 |
| RProgrammer | mabus44: Ok | 19:04 |
| coz_ | clammitt, not much need for them actually | 19:04 |
| eblume | MaMoUs: np, good luck | 19:04 |
| ohzie | juken, OH MAN LIFECHAT that's even the same headset I have at home for the windows machine. | 19:05 |
| RProgrammer | hopeless8009: Paste the command string you ran | 19:05 |
| coz_ | clammitt, I also use the ppa for easystroke | 19:05 |
| clammitt | coz_: well there you go. if you do, it's buggy as hell at least under my version | 19:05 |
| maxnet | shadyabhi: who told you that india is starved of bandwidth | 19:05 |
| coz_ | clammitt, maybe the ppa version is better | 19:05 |
| juken | ohzie: aye, it works fine on other operating systems | 19:05 |
| shadyabhi | RProgrammer: bhuvi mabus44.. its look like "sudo apt-get update" didnt run successfully... No point until mabus44 does "update " again | 19:05 |
| coz_ | clammitt, also if you decide to install and try mypaint let me know | 19:05 |
| hopeless8009 | RProgrammer: sudo mount -t nfs 192.168.1.70:/mnt /home/john/Desktop | 19:05 |

| maxnet | I am using 2Mbps connection at my home... | 19:05 |
| maxnet | shadyabhi: if you have money you can buy it... | 19:06 |
| shadyabhi | maxnet: In US, people get 8MBps for Rs 1500 | 19:06 |
| coz_ | clammitt, there is also crrcsim a really nice remote control flight simulator | 19:06 |
| RProgrammer | shadyabhi: that's what mabus is doing | 19:06 |
| mabus44 | bhuvi: RProgrammer shadyabhi http://pastie.org/1028472 this is waht i get when i run apt-get update.. | 19:06 |
| clammitt | i'm not much of a painter though | 19:06 |
| ohzie | juken, Historically, windows has had better sound than linux...for....decades. Which is unfortunate, but it's because they set all the standards on anything windows related that uses sound. | 19:06 |
| coz_ | clammitt, also of course inkscape | 19:06 |
| maxnet | shadyabhi: it must be limited... | 19:06 |
| shadyabhi | mabus44: yOur update failed | 19:06 |
| ohzie | I wonder if there is a way to make a USB headset use ALSA | 19:06 |
| RProgrammer | mabus44: I bet I know what it is | 19:06 |
| ohzie | instead of Pulse? | 19:06 |
| coz_ | clammitt, XBC media center | 19:06 |
| coz_ | clammitt, XBMC rather | 19:07 |
| clammitt | xbmc was little limited for me but i tried it | 19:07 |
| mabus44 | shadyabhi: i kow that but i ensured that my net connection is perfect | 19:07 |
| juken | ohzie: I know, it is quite unfortunate, I had never had issues with sound in Ubuntu, but recently it's been awful. | 19:07 |
| coz_ | clammitt, Florence virtual keyboard | 19:07 |
| shadyabhi | maxnet: I am also on a 4mbps connection .. and yes i live in india.. I am just telling in general... Its damn expensive here mate | 19:07 |
| RProgrammer | mabus44: It's either a problem with the India mirror, your closest India mirror, or it's something the ISP is doing between you | 19:07 |
| maxnet | shadyabhi: I have used internet in US during my visit and know the prices if you get a unlimited connection | 19:07 |
| coz_ | clammitt, midori | 19:07 |
| RProgrammer | mabus44: Try using a US mirror in your sources.list (temporarily) and running apt-get update | 19:07 |
| coz_ | clammitt, glbillards | 19:08 |
| maxnet | shadyabhi: where do u live in india? | 19:08 |
| clammitt | nah not into browsers. firefox is enough for me | 19:08 |
| mabus44 | RProgrammer: ok trying for dat | 19:08 |
| shadyabhi | maxnet: Gandhinagar currently | 19:08 |

| trism | juken: did you ever unmute your microphone? it was muted in one of the pictures you posted a while ago | 19:09 |
| coz_ | clammitt, or go here and put in a search for PPA or here http://freshmeat.net/?page=7 | 19:09 |
| fbxxkl | is there a way to preference in GIMP to open files in Tabs? | 19:09 |
| juken | trism: yes, that's been unmuted. | 19:09 |
| maxnet | shadyabhi: i d't think so... how much u pay for 4Mbps | 19:10 |
| coz_ | fbxxkl, yes if you install the alpa 2.7 gimp | 19:10 |
| norbi905 | A bit off topic but yay to 50Mbit coming into my house :) | 19:10 |
| coz_ | fbxxkl, let me get screenshot for you | 19:10 |
| clammitt | ahh nice but theres a lot LOT of stuff on freshmeat | 19:10 |
| juken | trism: the reason for that being muted in the first place was it wasn't the audio tab so I didn't know if that may have been interfering. | 19:10 |
| maxnet | shadyabhi: I am planning to get a 8Mbps from BSNL... | 19:10 |
| fbxxkl | cool | 19:10 |
| coz_ | fbxxkl, http://dl.dropbox.com/u/132551/screenshots/screenshot1.png | 19:10 |
| bhuvi | mabus44: open synapic package manager and select settings-> repositories and in the download from option use sellect best server option | 19:10 |
| arand | maxnet shadyabhi: Please take it to #ubuntu-offtopic | 19:10 |
| coz_ | fbxxkl, it also has single window mode available | 19:10 |
| hopeless8009 | RProgrammer: any ideas? | 19:11 |
| mabus44 | bhuvi: ok | 19:11 |
| fbxxkl | YES how do I get that coz_? | 19:11 |
| coz_ | fbxxkl, however single window mode must be enabled maually each time you start gimp at this point | 19:11 |
| fbxxkl | install from the website? | 19:11 |
| coz_ | fbxxkl, lucid? | 19:11 |
| fbxxkl | I am using 10.04 which is lucid right? | 19:11 |
| trism | juken: have you checked out the input tab of pavucontrol? | 19:11 |
| coz_ | fbxxkl, yes | 19:11 |
| arand | fbxxkl: coz_: Isn't that available from the mrw svn PPA? | 19:12 |
| juken | trism: yep | 19:12 |
| fbxxkl | mrw svn ppa? lost me at mrw | 19:12 |
| coz_ | arand, ah not sure looking for PPA now | 19:12 |

| coz_ | clammitt, no only in the ppa alpha right now | 19:13 |
| arand | clammitt: developer preview. | 19:13 |
| fbxxkl | yay for auto update thanks coz_ | 19:13 |
| clammitt | aw | 19:13 |
| RProgrammer | hopeless8009: To make things easier, just get a root shell: `sudo bash' | 19:14 |
| coz_ | fbxxkl, it will freez the system if you try to gausian blur at this point or over gausian blur | 19:14 |
| coz_ | fbxxkl, but other than that I have had no issues with it | 19:14 |
| hopeless8009 | RProgrammer, any ohter ideas | 19:15 |
| juken | trism: oddly enough, if I tap on this thing: http://i.imgur.com/kKMq6.jpg the input bar goes up and down as if I were talking into the mic. | 19:15 |
| fbxxkl | nice I won't be using it for that so much right now. | 19:15 |
| bhuvi | mabus44, wait till the sudo apt-get update completes successfully and then try installing packages | 19:15 |
| fbxxkl | Mostly wanted a more organized screen for clipping cropping and quick edits | 19:15 |
| coz_ | clammitt, there are many many many applications to play with if you are willing to compile them especiall from the links I gave you | 19:15 |
| mabus44 | bhuvi: ok | 19:15 |
| RProgrammer | hopeless8009: it really says "bad superblock" ? | 19:15 |
| coz_ | clammitt, it can be fun and frustrating :) | 19:15 |
| fbxxkl | coz_: ps how did you get your max/min/exit buttons on the right side? | 19:15 |
| mabus44 | bhuvi: synaptic told me to reload... so m doin it | 19:15 |
| coz_ | fbxxkl, hold on | 19:15 |
| hopeless8009 | RProgrammer, ya what does that mean | 19:15 |
| clammitt | yeah i'm looking throug. theres too many in fact. so im trying to find the cream of the crop know what i mean | 19:16 |
| bhuvi | mabus44, if u reload in synaptic then there is no need to do sudo apt-get update | 19:16 |
| player | how can i download ps2 games in iso file | 19:16 |
| mabus44 | bhuvi: ok | 19:16 |
| coz_ | fbxxkl, you can follow this http://www.webupd8.org/2010/03/fixed-ubuntu-light-themes-metacity-in.html | 19:16 |
| RProgrammer | hopeless8009: That means the most important block in the raw file system data (which encodes things like the size of the fs, which version, etc.) is not of the correct format. But I'm pretty sure networked file systems give a different failure message. | 19:17 |
| player | how can i download ps2 games in iso file | 19:17 |
| fbxxkl | awesome thanks | 19:17 |
| coz_ | fbxxkl, just read it carefully through first and make sure you can maneauver through it without second guessing | 19:17 |
| player | how can i get a iso file | 19:17 |
| coz_ | player, generally you download them unless you want to create one | 19:18 |
| RProgrammer | player: of ubuntu? Go to ubuntu.com | 19:18 |
| hopeless8009 | does it matter that the file im trying to mount is in the / on the server. also is it mounted on there sever right its a USB external hard drive | 19:18 |
| fbxxkl | ill be careful | 19:18 |
| hopeless8009 | RProgrammer: does it matter that the file im trying to mount is in the / on the server. also is it mounted on there sever right its a USB external hard drive | 19:18 |
| RProgrammer | hopeless8009: You're not trying to mount a file, you're trying to mount a NFS share over the network | 19:19 |
| trism | juken: strange, so it would seem that pulseaudio seems to see it, is it selected in System/Preferences/Sound on the input tab? | 19:19 |

| Trikks | How do I run sound through headphones? | 19:19 |
| juken | trism: Yea, it is | 19:19 |
| coz_ | fbxxkl, just be sure you get the correct one for lucid and not an earlier version ...the command boxes have titles on them so it shouldnt be too difficult | 19:20 |
| trism | juken: and if so, can you record anything with the Sound Recorder? | 19:20 |
| hopeless8009 | RProgrammer, my gole is to share that hardrive on the network | 19:20 |
| juken | trism: no, that's where I've been trying, if I record sound and try to listen back it's just blank. | 19:20 |

| hopeless8009 | RProgrammer, i thought i had to put it in the exports file first | 19:24 |
| RProgrammer | Oh yeah, NFS | 19:24 |
| RProgrammer | Yep | 19:24 |
| coz_ | suraj, try this in terminal gpg --recv-keys --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com b88a1aa8 --export |sudo apt-key add - | 19:24 |
| RProgrammer | sshfs is a quicker alternative (though not as fast) | 19:24 |
| coz_ | suraj, dont forget that - at the end | 19:25 |
| fbxxkl | coz_ your a wealth of knowledge | 19:25 |
| fbxxkl | thanks | 19:25 |
| fbxxkl | coz_++ | 19:25 |
| coz_ | fbxxkl, no problem | 19:25 |
| suraj | trying | 19:25 |
| RProgrammer | I've not used NFS much, but I would assume you'd need to modify the exports file and restart the server. (probably `/etc/init.s/nfs restart') | 19:25 |
| hopeless8009 | RProgrammer, so lets say i add my home dir on the server. i would start a new line and type as follows # /home 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0 (rw,sync,no_subtree_check) | 19:26 |

| sebsebseb | sudipta: if so, you are likely to experience a boot up in 10.04 that won't work properly | 19:33 |
| trism | juken: that's my point, for some reason the volume is very low (although you have it on max so I don't understand that), when I tap mine, almost the whole meter fills up | 19:33 |

| Kangarooo | can somebody tell where to find page with all linux or at least a lot ubuntu packages witch arent using LP but using bugzilla or trac? | 19:48 |
| Kangarooo | + | 19:49 |
| iceroot | Kangarooo: every package managed from ubuntu is using launchpad. | 19:49 |
| Ego_Proctor | yakra, Xorg -configure can be run from a command line. you can shut down the display driver my sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop (or kdm if you are using kde) then use the Xorg -configure | 19:50 |
| Ego_Proctor | then you use the sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start | 19:50 |
| yakra | when it's time to bring the display back? | 19:50 |
| Trikks | Excuse me, I'm currently running dual boot with Ubuntu and Windows. If I wanted delete windows and use only Ubuntu, How would I go about that? | 19:51 |
| Ego_Proctor | yes gdm stop shuts down gui gdm start brings it back up | 19:51 |
| yakra | and i don't lose any of my session, correct? | 19:51 |
| Ego_Proctor | Trikks, you could use gparted to reformat the partition | 19:51 |
| yakra | *deep breath* K, here goes | 19:51 |
| Ego_Proctor | yakra you shut down everything | 19:51 |
| sebsebseb | Trikks: delete the WIndows partition | 19:51 |
| Kangarooo | iceroot: ive posted bugs about ubuntu packages but they dont get noticed. so today i tryd putting also lp projects packages to correct bugs but thouse who dont respond dont use LP as bug tracker. Some use bugzilla some sourceforge but they dont want to use LP | 19:51 |
| Trikks | Partition? The Hard Drive? | 19:51 |
| Ego_Proctor | yakra so save your work and suck | 19:52 |
| Ego_Proctor | Trikks, yes on the hard drive | 19:52 |
| sebsebseb | Trikks: the partition for Windows on the hard drive | 19:52 |
| Trikks | I literally just reformatted. | 19:52 |
| yakra | phew. K. Good thing I dinna get started that quick | 19:52 |
| iceroot | Kangarooo: for upstream-patches use the contact/bug information shown in the package | 19:52 |
| iceroot | Kangarooo: but normally you dont want upstream-patches, just ubuntu-patches and the ubuntu-maintainers are managing the upstream | 19:53 |
| bl4de | ciao, ragazzi! | 19:53 |
| sebsebseb | Trikks: it seems like one or two people were getting rid of Windows recently, and for some reason the Grub bootloader messed up, and sorting Grub out is a pain really | 19:53 |
| yakra | so do I wanna close all my programs running in gnome, then ctrl+alt+1 to a new terminal, and then enter the command? Or is there more to it? | 19:53 |
| Ego_Proctor | Trikks, You can use the partition for linux without doing anything at all, just everything in it and keep the NTS partition, it is good if you are using a multi os network. | 19:53 |
| sebsebseb | Trikks: reformatted? put Ubuntu and Windows on there recently? | 19:53 |
| bl4de | oops, sorry! | 19:53 |
| sebsebseb | Ego_Proctor: NTFS sucks | 19:53 |
| Ego_Proctor | yakra gdm stop will shut everything down, just make sure it is saved. | 19:53 |
| yakra | k | 19:53 |
| ZykoticK9 | yakra, if you are wanting an xorg.conf see http://sites.google.com/site/alucidfs/how-i-do/create-an-xorg-conf-file | 19:53 |
| Kangarooo | iceroot: yes some has set they use bugzilla but others havent. thats why i would like to have complete info about who havent set up LP as bugtracker and havent set up in LP witch they use | 19:53 |
| sebsebseb | Trikks: and you can replace where the NTFS partition was, with another partition with a Linux file system :) | 19:54 |
| Ego_Proctor | sebsebseb, yes it is not great, but if you have lots of other windows machines, well windows doesn't read ext very well. | 19:54 |
| Trikks | Yes, I had to put Windows back on because Ubuntu was having boot problems. | 19:54 |
| sebsebseb | Trikks: boot problems? | 19:54 |
| Trikks | Yes, I believe it had to do with the Nvidia Graphics driver. | 19:54 |
| iceroot | Kangarooo: if i am correct the info is in the package. i guess it was the control file, but dont know the apt-cache command to show the control file | 19:54 |
| sebsebseb | Trikks: ah yes | 19:55 |
| sebsebseb | Trikks: yes | 19:55 |
| Trikks | When I was finally able to boot in Recovery with internet access, I downloaded the driver and it booted just fine. | 19:55 |
| sebsebseb | Trikks: the Plymouth boot up in 10.04 sucks with propritary Nivida drivers and well ATI | 19:55 |
| iceroot | Kangarooo: normally in control there is the field "maintainer" also man packagename is showing the bugtracking url at the end (imo) | 19:55 |
| Trikks | Haha, I noticed. :-P | 19:55 |
| Dreams-Void | can i install ubuntu onto an SD Card and NOT break the windows 7 bootloader? (netbook doesn't allow sd card boot but if its in grub) | 19:55 |
| sebsebseb | Trikks: What was your first Ubuntu? | 19:55 |
| PenguinChick | I know that this is more of a Maya thing (so I have posted this to the Maya forums as well) but as anyone here tried using Maya 2009 and gotten segmentation faults (signal 11)? | 19:56 |
| Trikks | This is the first. 10.04 | 19:56 |
| sebsebseb | Trikks: oh | 19:56 |
| Ego_Proctor | Trikks, I only mentioned keeping NTFS if you needed to have a community space for both your machine and other windows machines. otherwise just blow it away ans use something like ext4 | 19:56 |
| sebsebseb | Trikks: well 9.10 sucked pretty much when it was new, but now is quite a bit better than 10.04 :) however 9.04 :) sadly that will run out of support at the end of October | 19:56 |
| yakra | ZykoticK9, OK. That site's about the same process. Except X, instead of Xorg, -configure. *shrug* But anyway. I'll try this as soon as I can save my work | 19:57 |
| sebsebseb | Trikks: previous versions of Ubuntu work rather well with propritary graphic card drivers | 19:57 |
| Trikks | I haven't had any serious problems with 10.04. Small snags here and there but nothing unfixable with a little effort. | 19:57 |
| Trikks | After downloading the Nvidia Driver, it works great now. | 19:58 |
| PenguinChick | Anyone know what signal 11 means? | 19:58 |
| ZykoticK9 | yakra, "that site" is just my method of doing things - there are almost always more then one way to do things in linux ;) Good luck man. | 19:58 |
| sebsebseb | Trikks: uhmm the nivida driver didn't mess up boot up big time? | 19:58 |
| Trikks | I'm just having a minor problem with the Flash Plugin for Firefox. | 19:58 |
| Trikks | Not at all, it actually allowed me to boot up. | 19:58 |
| Ego_Proctor | Trikks, I have run into more issues with 10.04 and older motherboards with nvidia chipsets then anything else. | 19:58 |
| Trikks | I guess I may have gotten lucky, Haha. | 19:59 |
| sebsebseb | Trikks: as for Flash yeah there are issues every now and again | 19:59 |

| ZykoticK9 | Trikks, is clicking in flash not working? | 19:59 |
| Trikks | Right | 19:59 |
| sebsebseb | Trikks: Flash will probably work nicely in another browser though | 19:59 |
| Ego_Proctor | Trikks, are you using 32 or 64 bit 10.04? | 20:00 |
| ZykoticK9 | Trikks, http://sites.google.com/site/alucidfs/how-i-do/clicking-in-flash-not-working | 20:00 |
| guntbert | PenguinChick: Signal 11, or officially know as "segmentation fault", means that the program accessed a memory location that was not assigned. That's usually a bug in the program. (from: http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/) | 20:00 |
| Trikks | I'm using 64 Bit | 20:00 |
| lpetrov | q: just wondernig...can i upgrade my current (8.04) ubuntu server to the latest (that on ubuntu.com, that have virtualization tools included) :? | 20:00 |
| sebsebseb | Trikks: sudo apt-get install gparted then system > administration > partition eidtor / gparted | 20:00 |
| Trikks | I don't really know what the difference between 64 bit and 32 bit is though. | 20:00 |
| sebsebseb | Trikks: and you can delete your WIndows partition with that | 20:00 |
| PenguinChick | guntbert: yeah, thats what it seems like. I know the .so file that it seems to keep giving back to me in debug mode | 20:00 |
| afroman | hello. is it possible to use synaptics multi touch on linux? | 20:01 |
| Ego_Proctor | hmmm.... there is a different flash install for 32 bit and 64 bit. I had the same issue. let me see if I can dig up the 64 install. | 20:01 |
| PenguinChick | guntbert: but Im not sure what is the problem. I did do a memtest to make sure my memory wasnt corrupted or going bad | 20:01 |
| sebsebseb | Trikks: 64bit is more powerful basically or can be with the right hardware | 20:01 |
| Trikks | I'm not to savvy with the Terminal yet. | 20:01 |
| guntbert | PenguinChick: so that will really be a bug in the software, your linux is doing what it is supposed to do | 20:01 |
| sebsebseb | Trikks: can do some stuff that will use a lot of RAM using 64bit, where as 32bit nope | 20:01 |
| sebsebseb | Trikks: right well that command is basic | 20:02 |
| Trikks | I'm running an Alienware laptop. Gaming machine. | 20:02 |
| PenguinChick | guntbert: Hmm....and of course its an Autodesk program. Meh | 20:02 |
| Trikks | So I figured 64 bit would be the better choice. | 20:02 |
| sebsebseb | Trikks: oh if your a gamer, keep Windows I guess, as much as I dislike saying that | 20:02 |
| sebsebseb | Trikks: even though there are some pretty good games that you can run on a Linux distro | 20:02 |
| Trikks | All my research says that there are ways to run games through Ubuntu. | 20:02 |
| NilBud | WINE and PlayOnLinux work wonders | 20:02 |
| sebsebseb | Trikks: yes native games, or Wine | 20:02 |
| PenguinChick | Trikks: Sure is. Its not without a bit of work but it can be done. | 20:03 |
| Trikks | Yeah, Exactly. | 20:03 |
| sebsebseb | Trikks: PlayOnLinux is for Wine | 20:03 |
| sebsebseb | Trikks: however certain games you will still need Windows for | 20:03 |
| ZykoticK9 | Trikks, just not "all" games - particularly not the "latest and greatest". as much as it pains me Windows is FAR superior as a gaming platform currently. | 20:03 |
| lpetrov | hm.. while upgrading: /sbin/runlevel not found, wtf ? | 20:03 |
| NilBud | That it is. It's more ment for newbies. Autoconfigures the games for you. | 20:03 |
| lpetrov | any ideas ? | 20:03 |
| PenguinChick | The only game programs I cant seem to do without using windows are things that are xna based | 20:03 |
| ZykoticK9 | Trikks, native games i have running http://sites.google.com/site/alucidfs/gaming | 20:03 |
| Trikks | You know, I'd sacrifice quite a bit to get rid of Windows. Haha. | 20:03 |
| NilBud | Quake live, another fun gane is also native in Linux now. | 20:04 |
| Trikks | Aww, You couldn't get Quake 2 to work? | 20:04 |

| ubottu | Package startup-manager does not exist in lucid | 20:10 |
| Trikks | Ok yeah, That works. Just doesn't show that I'm typing anything in... | 20:11 |
| hopeless8009 | any one here know Ubuntu server while mounting a nfs on my laptop i get the error mount.nfs: access denied by server while mounting 192.168.1.70:/home | 20:11 |
| Trikks | Strange. | 20:11 |

| sebsebseb | augdawg: startup manager or something | 20:11 |
| augdawg | okay thanks | 20:11 |
| augdawg | is it in synaptic sebsebseb | 20:11 |
| guntbert | carlos82: ubuntu one support is in #ubuntuone | 20:11 |
| sebsebseb | augdawg: yes | 20:11 |
| augdawg | okay thanks let nme check | 20:11 |
| sebsebseb | augdawg: should be able to find the one I mean in there | 20:11 |
| maxwellian | Trikks: It's so someone can't be over your shoulder reading your password. | 20:11 |
| maxwellian | Trikks: Or even the *length* of your password. | 20:11 |
| carlos82 | LJRuff: in the session manager i was choose the option "Ubuntu One..." | 20:11 |
| afroman | does anybody here use synaptics multi touch? | 20:12 |
| Trikks | Haha, Yeah. Its still confusing! | 20:12 |
| carlos82 | guntberg: thanx, ill go there ! | 20:12 |
| Trikks | But safety first. :-) | 20:12 |
| sebsebseb | !info startupmanager | 20:12 |
| ubottu | startupmanager (source: startupmanager): Grub, Usplash and Splash screen configuration. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.9.13-4ubuntu1 (lucid), package size 114 kB, installed size 1360 kB | 20:12 |
| sebsebseb | augdawg: there ^ | 20:12 |
| carlos82 | LJRuff: and only hold it, doesnt connect | 20:12 |
| sebsebseb | augdawg: sudo apt-get install startupmanager | 20:12 |
| augdawg | sebsebseb great thats the one i am downloading | 20:13 |
| LJRuff | carlos82, the connect/disconnect button is disabled? | 20:13 |
| sebsebseb | Trikks: there are differences here and there between Windows yes, however Linux distros are designed most of them, with security in mind, to be more secure than Windows | 20:13 |
| LJRuff | carlos82, Open a terminal session if you have not already | 20:13 |
| Trikks | I got the worst virus on Windows about a week ago. And that is what put me over the edge. I formatted my hard drive and switched to Ubuntu. | 20:13 |
| LJRuff | Welcome to Ubuntu, Trikks! | 20:14 |
| sebsebseb | Trikks: and having to enter the password for quite a few things, is a good thing really | 20:14 |
| augdawg | sebsebseb ; just downloaded it. thanks for all your help guys! | 20:14 |
| carlos82 | LJRuff: its open now | 20:14 |
| sebsebseb | augdawg: np | 20:14 |
| LJRuff | carlos82, do precisely as I say, please. Run this -> killall ubuntuone-login ubuntuone-preferences ubuntuone-syncdaemon | 20:14 |
| maxwellian | hopeless8009: Wow, you're still here. :) Did you get your server wireless? | 20:14 |
| carlos82 | LJRuff: are u sure?; doenst hang my session at all? | 20:14 |
| sebsebseb | Trikks: well there are ways to run Windows more securely, with it not being that likely to get malware, however since its so easy to get malware installed into Windows, running Windows online, is a security risk really | 20:15 |
| LJRuff | carlos82, may i message you | 20:15 |
| LJRuff | ? | 20:15 |
| LJRuff | sebsebseb, yeah, by uninstalling it and putting linux on that box... =D | 20:15 |

| sebsebseb | maxwellian: well I suppouse there is still a little bit of Windows around for when they are making apps for Windows. However if an employee wants it on their lap top, they have to get proper permission from above is what I read as well. Anyway off topic! | 20:19 |
| visavant | Don't do the general stuff, and get a PhD to get hired at Google for kernel maintaining. :P | 20:20 |
| Tsunami99 | You spent hours and hours without getting any cash!!! | 20:20 |
| LJRuff | Trikks, sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras will install flash player, as well as JRE's, etc... | 20:20 |
| maxwellian | Tsunami99: Don't understand the question...are you asking what about someone's personality will help them to be Linux developer? | 20:20 |
| Trikks | It only happens with I have the visual effects turned to Normal or Extra. | 20:20 |

| jaime | hi, fresh install of K-10.4 here, sending mail 'with an attachment' makes the box freeze hard. same thing with thunderbird and kmail. fresh profiles, thorough hardware test, reinstalled apps and deps (even though debsum had no complaints), nothing seems to fix it. :( anyone? | 20:22 |

I want to install the latest Nvidia drivers so in order to stop X server, I have tried both gdm stop and init 3. init 3 does nothing, gdm stop starts but then hangs at "Checking battery state..." This is a desktop machine with no battery. what can i do to avoid this check? i have looked into acpi and apm but can't figure those out | 20:27 |

| Alan502 | spaes, some days ago i was having a really hard time trying to install the drivers | 20:27 |
| sebsebseb | spaes: since its 10.04 if you successfuly get the propritary driver installed, your boot up may mess up big time! | 20:27 |
| Alan502 | spaes, fortunately, i found a tutorial on ubuntuforums.org that helped a lot | 20:28 |

| fuzzybunny69y | jaime, nmap thats what it was | 20:28 |

| maxwellian | oxymoron: So you're trying to build a plugin from source, from someone else's repository? | 20:45 |
| raven | jaime, works - now the problem is to open the sound port /dev/dsp | 20:45 |
| skhater | my Intel Corporation 82945G/GZ Integrated Graphics Controller couse my ubuntu to freeze help? | 20:45 |
| oxymoron | maxwellian: Yes ;) | 20:45 |
| maco | raven: oh i know how to fix that | 20:45 |
| leonardo | no the screen resolution is too low | 20:45 |
| bstarek | the last the internet worked was when i was in the airport | 20:45 |
| raven | maco yes? | 20:46 |
| maco | raven: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/TextToSpeech#Configuration%20for%20ESD%20or%20PulseAudio | 20:46 |
| caac | hi, when i do a sudo apt-get update and a sudo apt-get upgrade, it says it kept back some things, how do i fix that? | 20:46 |
| jaime | raven: check perms of that dev and put yourself in the proper group? sorry i have no buntu up here | 20:46 |
| iMJ94 | How would i get ubuntu on my mac? | 20:46 |
| maco | raven: just need to put it in pulseaudio mode is all | 20:46 |
| raven | maco ok tnx | 20:46 |
| leonardo | im using a dell c600 | 20:46 |
| maxwellian | bstarek: What distribution are your running? | 20:46 |
| maco | iMJ94: look into a tool called rEFIt | 20:46 |
| Trikks | How do I get to a specific folder in Terminal? | 20:46 |
| Trikks | Haven't done Dos in like, 10 years.. | 20:46 |
| maco | Trikks: "cd" changes directories | 20:46 |
| bstarek | maxwellian : the last one | 20:46 |
| bstarek | maxwellian : 10.04 | 20:46 |
| maco | Trikks: this isnt DOS anyway | 20:46 |
| iMJ94 | maco: ? | 20:46 |
| Trikks | So is it cd /folder ? | 20:46 |
| maco | Trikks: this is a bash shell | 20:46 |
| maco | Trikks: if you want one thats under / then yeah | 20:47 |
| bstarek | maxwellian : it is very weird because everything used to work perfectly | 20:47 |
| Trikks | Well then I'm definitely up shit creek | 20:47 |
| maco | Trikks: watch your language | 20:47 |
| Trikks | Oof, Sorry. >.< | 20:47 |
| maxwellian | oxymoron: Okay, well it doesn't seem likely that they would keep a broken build in the repos. | 20:47 |
| maxwellian | oxymoron: Do they list build pre-requisites? | 20:47 |
| maco | Trikks: if you want one thats under your current directory ( pwd tells you the current dir) you leave off the / | 20:47 |
| ubforce | alan502: I did read that article: helpful for a non-noob. I see general instructions on what to do, not how to do | 20:47 |
| h00k | Trikks: the Manual might be of some help, too | 20:47 |
| maco | Trikks: ls tells you the files in your current dir | 20:47 |
| h00k | !manual | Trikks | 20:47 |
| ubottu | Trikks: The Ubuntu Manual will help you become familiar with everyday tasks such as surfing the web, listening to music and scanning documents. With an emphasis on easy to follow instructions, it is suitable for all levels of experience. http://ubuntu-manual.org/ | 20:47 |

| kappa_zs | hi all! | 20:48 |
| perlmonkey2 | I need to tune my cpufreq conf files. Anyone know where they are? | 20:48 |
| maxwellian | bstarek: So you were using the wireless on 10.04 at the airport, you came home, and it wasn't working anymore? | 20:48 |
| BluesKaj | !mac | iMJ94 | 20:48 |
| ubottu | iMJ94: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions - For write access, see !NTFS-3g or !FUSE | 20:48 |
| raven | maco, ok but now it hangs on it seems - cpu 100% but nothing to hear | 20:48 |
| maco | iMJ94: macs dont have BIOS. they have EFI instead. so to make linux boot on it, you need rEFIt, a tool that speaks EFI | 20:48 |
| oxymoron | maxwellian: I dont know what that means, it can be found here http://gitorious.org/kdevelop4-git and I just git clone it | 20:48 |
| perlmonkey2 | Not even running a compile triggers a cpu upscale. | 20:48 |
| wildc4rd | evenin' all! | 20:48 |
| kappa_zs | i am using ubuntu 10.04. i installed virtualbox but i can not make a virtual cd-rom for it. can someone please help me ? | 20:48 |
| leonardo | somebody | 20:48 |
| bstarek | maxwellian : that is exactly what happened! I travelled and then nothing | 20:48 |
| iMJ94 | What's my very first step then? | 20:49 |
| ubforce | alan502: btw, when I run the command line you gave me, it returns that it's "unable to lock the administration directory" | 20:49 |
| iMJ94 | Burn the iso? | 20:49 |
| maco | iMJ94: yeah | 20:49 |
| maxwellian | oxymoron: Is there a README file in what you downloaded? | 20:50 |
| Alan502 | ubforce, it's cause you have another synaptic open | 20:50 |
| raven | maco? | 20:50 |
| maco | iMJ94: and read this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBook | 20:50 |
| Alan502 | ubforce, or ubuntu software center open | 20:50 |
| dsnyders | leonardo, ask your question all on one line, then be patient. If nobody answers after ten minutes or so, then ask again. | 20:50 |
| Alan502 | ubforce, close them all, and run it again | 20:50 |
| maco | raven: i dont know. are you doing the interactive way i mentioned? if so, it wont speak til you ctrl+D | 20:50 |
| Alan502 | ubforce, or rather just uninstall ratarack from synaptic | 20:50 |
| Alan502 | ubforce, where you installed it | 20:50 |
| maxwellian | bstarek: So what's happening now? Does the icon in the top right show that you're connected? | 20:50 |
| raven | maco no im in tts mode and ctrl d does not do anything | 20:51 |
| kappa_zs | i am using ubuntu 10.04. i installed virtualbox but i can not make a virtual cd-rom for it. can someone please help me ? | 20:51 |
| bstarek | maxwellian : yes it connects to the network but nothing works, looks like something is blocking the trqffic | 20:51 |
| oxymoron | maxwellian: Nope :/ | 20:51 |
| Alan502 | kappa_zs, virtual cd-rom? | 20:51 |
| maco | raven: i dont know. ive never used --tts | 20:51 |
| juken | How do I remove pulseaudio completely and get install something that actually works? | 20:51 |
| Alan502 | ubforce, tell me when y're done to guide you through installing ratarack properly from the sources | 20:51 |
| juken | s/get// | 20:52 |
| ubforce | alan502: duh - I wasn't sure what was locking it; I should have just closed everything else. | 20:52 |
| raven | maco perhaps any fault with the sound cfg? | 20:52 |
| kappa_zs | Alan502: iso file as cd -rom... | 20:52 |
| maco | juken: you can uninstall it just fine. you'll then have to add yourself to the audio group and get used to the fact that there is no graphical volume mixer without pulseaudio | 20:52 |
| Alan502 | kappa_zs, close all vm's you may have open | 20:52 |
| ubforce | alan502: it's done. | 20:52 |
| juken | maco: sounds good | 20:52 |
| maco | raven: i dont know. those directions worked for one of my friends when she had the dsp problem | 20:52 |
| maxwellian | This is probably offtopic, but does anyone know of a client that would allow you to open up a window which only contains what one person has said in this channel? It would help to fix someone's problem if you didn't have to constantly scroll back. | 20:52 |
| Alan502 | kappa_zs, then, on the virtualbox windows | 20:52 |
| Alan502 | *window | 20:52 |
| BluesKaj | juken, your sound may work after you remove pulseaudio | 20:52 |
| caac | is it true Ubuntu 10.04.1 is out? | 20:52 |
| maxwellian | IRC client, I mean. | 20:52 |
| juken | BluesKaj: that's what I'm hoping for | 20:52 |
| raven | maco ok... | 20:52 |
| Alan502 | kappa_zs, click on the virtual machine you want to put the iso and then settings | 20:53 |
| maco | caac: no i dont think so. theres been no announcement of that... | 20:53 |
| maxwellian | oxymoron: Sorry, you're going to have to talk to those developers somehow. This is specific to their project. | 20:53 |
| caac | :S | 20:53 |
| Alan502 | kappa_zs, on "storage" add an ide controler | 20:53 |
| caac | it's weird, I had to do sudo apt-get dist-upgrade to get my updates and upgrades | 20:53 |
| Alan502 | kappa_zs, the cd/dvd device | 20:53 |
| kappa_zs | Alan502 yes. and ? | 20:53 |
| oxymoron | maxwellian: I cannot found any contact info somewhere :/ | 20:53 |
| maco | caac: launchpad says that milestone is expected on the 29th of this month | 20:53 |
| kappa_zs | Alan502 that is the probelm. thetre is no cd rom :( | 20:53 |
| maxwellian | bstarek: Right click on the icon in the top right, and look at the contact info. Do you have an IP? | 20:53 |
| Alan502 | kappa_zs, in "add ide controller"? | 20:53 |
| MJ94 | http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/download i do this first, right? | 20:54 |
| maco | caac: you have to do that any time packages will be added or removed during an upgrade, such as when theres a new kernel | 20:54 |
| X-Sleepy-X | I have 10.04 installed on my Eee and ever since that release I've been getting an error during boot at random times. The error is that all I see is a black screen with a white marker up in the left corner that doesn't blink. I can just shut down the PC and start it all over again but it's kind of annoying so now I wonder how to trouble shoot this. I would like to know which log I could check or if there is anything else I can do? | 20:54 |
| X-Sleepy-X | Thanks in advance! | 20:54 |
| BluesKaj | juken, did you set all the ctrls in alsamixer to unmute and over 80% ? | 20:54 |
| maco | caac: thats why aptitude doesnt call it dist-upgrade anymore. it's a misnomer. they call it full-upgrade | 20:54 |
| Alan502 | ubforce, ok you downloaded the source package already? cd to it from the terminal | 20:54 |
| caac | first time I had to do that maco :O | 20:54 |
| maxwellian | oxymoron: http://lists.kde.org/?l=kdevelop-devel&r=1&w=2 | 20:54 |
| bstarek | maxwellian : i do have a local ipadress 192.168.x.x | 20:54 |
| caac | I don't use aptitude | 20:54 |
| caac | I do apt-get | 20:54 |
| kappa_zs | Alan502 it writes ide controller but it is disable (black ) :( it is not clickable . | 20:54 |
| caac | maco, thx for the info, July 29 | 20:54 |
| juken | BluesKaj: sure did, been working at this for a little over a week now, no one seems to know the problem, I've also checked the forum and #pulseaudio but those were useless. | 20:54 |
| kappa_zs | Alan502 i came back | 20:55 |
| Oer | ubuntu 10.04 - 1 is schedulled for July 29th , caac | 20:55 |
| maco | caac: ive been using this for 4 years. its always been the case that upgrade and dist-upgrade were a distinction between add/remove, not anything actually strictly correlated with changing distro versions. the apt-get manpage explains this | 20:55 |
| BluesKaj | juken, no sound at all ? | 20:55 |
| maxwellian | bstarek: Okay, do you know how to open a terminal? | 20:55 |
| juken | BluesKaj: sound is fine through my headphones, but the mic on the headset doesn't work | 20:55 |
| bstarek | maxwellian : even when i type iwconfig in terminal i can see that all the information are there | 20:55 |
| caac | kk, : | 20:55 |
| caac | :) | 20:55 |
| Alan502 | kappa_zs, so you can see "IDE controller" under "Storage Tree" but it's grayed out? | 20:55 |
| bstarek | maxwellian : yes :) | 20:55 |
| raven | maco dont know what was the error but now it works - tnx | 20:55 |
| maxwellian | bstarek: Okay good. type 'ping google.com' | 20:55 |
| maco | juken: that sounds like a driver bug | 20:55 |
| dsnyders | Hi all, my Acer P221W monitor doesn't automatically power off any more. I am using the nvidia driver. How can I re-enable the power saving? | 20:55 |
| Alan502 | kappa_zs, and you can't click the "add ide controller" | 20:56 |
| juken | maco: worked fine right after a fresh install, but once I rebooted it was gone. | 20:56 |
| kappa_zs | Alan502: yes grey color :( it is disabled . i dont know why :( | 20:56 |
| krabador | ww.metallica.com | 20:56 |
| kappa_zs | Alan502: yes i can not clik. | 20:56 |
| bstarek | maxwellian : cant ping anything except my router 192.168.1.1 | 20:56 |
| ubforce | alan502: (feeling foolish) how do I get to (or find out) where firefox default download location is? | 20:56 |
| Alan502 | kappa_zs, what does it say under "attributes" | 20:56 |
| maco | juken: is this a usb headset or using the 1/8" jacks? | 20:56 |
| maxwellian | bstarek: Okay, do me a favor and try resetting your router. Unplug it, wait a couple of seconds, then plug it back in. | 20:56 |
| maxwellian | bstarek: I have to do that sometimes at home. | 20:56 |
| Alan502 | ubforce, it's /home/user/downloads normally | 20:56 |
| bstarek | maxwellian : ok then im gonna quit the forum and be back ok? | 20:57 |
| maxwellian | bstarek: Yup. :) | 20:57 |
| Alan502 | ubforce, you can also just right click on your download > open directory | 20:57 |
| bstarek | maxwellian : ok dont go away please :) | 20:57 |
| kappa_zs | Alan502: many things. but which you want ? | 20:57 |
| maxwellian | bstarek: Wait... | 20:57 |
| Alan502 | kappa_zs, Name, type, and if the checkbox is checked | 20:57 |
| bstarek | maxwellian : yes? | 20:57 |
| maxwellian | bstarek: Oh, never mind, I confused myself. :) Go ahead, I'll be here. | 20:58 |
| bstarek | maxwellian : lol alright | 20:58 |
| grzegorz | siemano | 20:58 |
| Alan502 | ubforce, haha, and don't worry about feeling foolish, we were all newbies one time :) | 20:59 |
| ubforce | alan502: when I try to cd to downloads (or /home/[user]/downloads), it returns No such file or directory. | 20:59 |
| juken | maco: USB | 20:59 |
| Alan502 | ubforce, linux is case-sesitive, try /home/user/Downloads | 20:59 |
| kappa_zs | Alan502: i dont know why but it came ... thank for your help but ide is working now.. | 20:59 |
| ubforce | alan502: I opened in file browser to see it. | 20:59 |
| Alan502 | ubforce, did you already extract the file? | 21:00 |
| kappa_zs | Alan502: it is not possible but i reopen the cd rom of my hardware and it came back | 21:00 |
| kappa_zs | Alan502: ubuntu has problems with vbox i think... | 21:00 |
| maco | juken: ok so its a second sound device. the order of device enumeration in linux is nondeterministic. have you tried using pavucontrol to manually set which audio in (1/8" jack v. usb device) to use? | 21:00 |
| Alan502 | kappa_zs, so you want to mount an iso file or a physical cd on your virtual machine? | 21:00 |
| kappa_zs | Alan502: an iso file. but i can do it. thank for your help :) | 21:01 |
| BluesKaj | bbq time....bbl | 21:01 |
| ubforce | alan502: Downloads - yup (shoulda rememberedd from my Unix days (25 years ago).. ; ) | 21:01 |

| Alan502 | kappa_zs, ok no problem :) come anytime you want | 21:01 |
| {fbs} | dock | 21:01 |
| ubforce | alan502: no - not extracted, yet | 21:01 |
| juken | maco: those are pretty much the settings I'm using, but I've switched between a lot on alsamixer also trying different things. | 21:01 |
| ubforce | alan502: where do I extract to? | 21:01 |
| hopeless8009 | when i run sudo mount -t nfs 192.168.1.70:/home /home/john/desktop/home the server denys me acesss can some one help i have ad min to the server | 21:01 |
| Alan502 | ubforce, just extract it in the same directory, doesn't matter | 21:02 |
| sudipta | how to extract a rar file in karmic? the default archive manager can not do it | 21:02 |
| juken | sudipta: sudo apt-get install unrar | 21:02 |
| maco | juken: wow ive never seen that software before. i use kubuntu... but anyway, try installing pavucontrol. itll show open streams and you can click on the stream and set what device it should pull from | 21:03 |
| bstarek2 | maxwellian: still the same :( | 21:03 |
| dsnyders | Hi all! Can I restart Xwindows without losing all the running programs? | 21:03 |
| maxwellian | bstarek: Hrm. | 21:03 |
| maco | dsnyders: no | 21:03 |
| juken | maxwellian: /last imgur | 21:03 |
| ubforce | alan502: Extracted. | 21:03 |
| juken | maxwellian: sorry, autocompletion mixup. | 21:03 |
| bstarek2 | maxwellian: my name is bstare2 now sorry | 21:04 |
| sudipta | <juken>thanks | 21:04 |
| {fbs} | i thing the archive extracter in ubuntu van handle that or unfree sudo apt-cache search rar might add functionality | 21:04 |
| maco | juken: i looked at your imgur. those arent pavucontrol... | 21:04 |
| bstarek2 | maxwellian: my name is bstarek2 now sorry | 21:04 |
| juken | maco: http://i.imgur.com/ZhwDi.png | 21:04 |
| maxwellian | juken: Oh, I thought that was a cool feature to let me see the last things someone said. :) | 21:04 |
| Alan502 | ubforce, cd to the directory you extracted it | 21:04 |
| guntbert | !rar | sudipta | 21:04 |
| ubottu | sudipta: rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression. There is a free (as in speech) unrar utility as well, see !info unrar-free | 21:04 |

| Alan502 | ubforce, then make | 21:04 |
| bstarek2 | maxwellian: is there a way to see if there is a proxy blovking? | 21:04 |

| maxwellian | bstarek2: Hmm...this is very odd, usually this kind of thing "just works", especially ethernet. | 21:09 |
| ubforce | alan502: the error message also referred me to a log file - I'm looking at the file for clues... | 21:10 |
| bstarek2 | maxwellian: yes i know usually ethernet is the easy way to connect | 21:10 |
| dsnyders | unomi, That's the old method. There's a new one. ctrl-shift-printscreen or something. | 21:10 |

| leonardo | how can i change the terminal box to make changes with the command sudo gedit in xubuntu | 21:13 |
| dsnyders | unomi, It was done because handicap settings allow you to toggle the ctrl and alt keys. If you have alt toggled on and press ctrl-backspace to delete a word in a document, then xwindows shuts down with no opportunity to save your documents. | 21:13 |
| ubforce | alan502: the error logfile shows some things that went wrong, but the noob, here, is unsure of what to do about them. | 21:13 |

| kato | hopeless8009, oops missed that soz | 21:13 |
| maxwellian | bstarek2: When you say you plug in to the ethernet, are you taking the ethernet cable out of the router and plugging it into your computer? In other words, you're NOT using another cable from the router to your machine? | 21:13 |

| erUSUL | Stevenking: right click on the channel tab | 21:16 |
| maxwellian | bstarek2: "Yes" meaning you are UNPLUGGING the router from the modem, taking that cable, and plugging it into your machine? | 21:16 |
| marvelfan19830 | which ati driver is best with gaming in wine? | 21:16 |
| Somelauw | I have updated Ubuntu and when I boot up my computer, Grub show ubuntu with linux 21.1, linux 21.2 and 21.3? | 21:16 |
| maxwellian | bstarek2: In other words, you're taking the router out of the equation. | 21:16 |
| Stevenking | thanks erUSUL | 21:16 |
| bstarek2 | maxwellian: oh sorry my friend because i have a modem/router | 21:17 |
| Stevenking | i was lokking the the settings... but ;) | 21:17 |
| kato | hopeless8009, ok given that the address is static on your client...you just need to remove the # at the beginning of the line to allow it to be read. | 21:17 |
| maxwellian | bstarek2: Modem/router? Your modem is the router? | 21:17 |

I would like to know which log I could check or if there is anything else I can do? | 21:18 |

| guntbert | leonardo: your question was not clear for me: what do you want to do? | 21:19 |

| ubforce | alan502: Error: Dependency is not satisfiable: libjack0 (>= 0.118.0) | 21:39 |
| touchaddict | Reelfast, sure thing, i'd do that | 21:39 |
| teknohan | guntbert: :D | 21:39 |
| Alan502 | ubforce, go to synaptic and install that package | 21:39 |
| touchaddict | Reelfast, do you know about the Sixth Sense project? | 21:39 |
| maxwellian | touchaddict: Whatever happens, I suggest you backup your profile. Then you can just sudo apt-get install firefox-3.5 | 21:39 |
| webPragmatist | ChogyDan: ugh way too involved | 21:39 |
| webPragmatist | to submit a bug | 21:39 |
| Reelfast | maxwellian, i keep my bookmarks on XMarks! | 21:39 |
| Reelfast | touchaddict... is that about augmented reality? | 21:40 |
| IdleOne | anthony_: there is a #ubuntu-ppc it is a small channel so please be patient and they should be able to help. | 21:40 |
| maxwellian | Reelfast: Heh, fine, but where are they normally kept? Did you not see the folder I mentioned? | 21:40 |
| touchaddict | yes, :) i am doing browsing enhancements for the same :D | 21:40 |
| ChogyDan | webPragmatist: unfortunately, that is how most requests are tracked... | 21:40 |
| maxwellian | bstarek: Sorry, got a little distracted. | 21:40 |
| anthony_ | Idleone: ok | 21:40 |
| bstarek | maxwellian:take your time | 21:41 |
| touchaddict | maxwellian and reelfast, thanks, btw i have synced my stuff using Mozilla-Weave. so i'll try the purging and other tips explained by you guys. | 21:41 |
| ^Jay2^ | is it ok if i dont install the ati driver since my display is perfect (using ubuntu display driver) | 21:41 |
| Reelfast | i thought they would be in the mozilla/firefox folder but i do not see any bookmarks there. | 21:41 |
| goldins | how do I make apt-mirror regenerate the package indexes? | 21:41 |
| anthony_ | how do i rigth click on a imac g3 mouse on ubuntu | 21:42 |
| maxwellian | .mozilla/firefox/xxxxxx.default/ | 21:42 |
| maxwellian | Reelfast: xxxx being some profile number. | 21:42 |
| anthony_ | how do i rigth click on a imac g3 mouse on ubuntu | 21:42 |
| maxwellian | bstarek: Okay, on the Windows machine, do you know how to look up your network details? | 21:43 |
| * touchaddict says whoa, i am just amused to see, how awesomely ubuntu community works! instant support, by the people for the people :-) | 21:43 | |
| ubforce | alan502: libjack0 was already there - version 0.118+svn3796-1ubuntu2 - reinstalled it. | 21:43 |
| bstarek | maxwellian:yes | 21:43 |
| enthdegree | does anyone know how to have favorites or history on dmenu? | 21:43 |
| Alan502 | ubforce, and the .deb still doesn't work? | 21:43 |
| erUSUL | anthony_: some mac special key + click ? http://www.ode2.com/?p=83 | 21:43 |
| maxwellian | touchaddict: You're amused? :) | 21:43 |
| Reelfast | maxwellian: yup... i see it | 21:43 |
| touchaddict | maxwellian: I mean, i am overwhelmed :D | 21:43 |
| maxwellian | Reelfast: Under there there's a lot of information about your current profile. Probably best to keep it rather than remove it. | 21:44 |
| kato | anthony_, have a look on your keyboard to the right of the spacebar you should see a menu type key does that job for ya. | 21:44 |
| Reelfast | I agree, I would cp the ./mozilla folder elsewhere | 21:44 |
| blouaap | is there any way of switching of the dumb tooltips from the panels? | 21:44 |
| Reelfast | but be sure to remove the extensions that would be incompatible | 21:44 |
| ubforce | alan502: same error | 21:45 |
| maxwellian | touchaddict: You'll be running a separate version of firefox. | 21:45 |
| maxwellian | touchaddict: It won't have any extensions by default, so there won't be any conflicts. | 21:45 |
| Alan502 | ubforce, nevermind then, out of ideas :P you might want to post on the forums though, you've got greater chances to get useful help there | 21:45 |
| touchaddict | maxwellian: okay | 21:45 |
| maxwellian | touchaddict: "firefox" will still run your normal version, "firefox-3.5" should run the older one. | 21:45 |
| ubforce | alan502: K. THANKS MUCH!!! | 21:46 |
| maxwellian | touchaddict: Just copy your .mozilla/firefox/ folder somewhere else for safekeeping. In case firefox-3.5 tries to clobber it. | 21:46 |
| Reelfast | lol... | 21:46 |
| Alan502 | ubforce, np :) | 21:46 |
| touchaddict | maxwellian, should i just sudo apt-get ff3.5 ? | 21:46 |
| kato | blouaap, yup on gnome you mean? | 21:47 |
| touchaddict | maxwellian, backup done | 21:47 |
| maxwellian | bstarek: Can you go to Start -> Run | 21:47 |
| urthmover | from the command line how can I see who is in the admin group ? | 21:47 |
| Ose | okay, so i'm trying to install the 10.04 netbook remix. BIOS is set to boot from CD first, but still boots XP from HD instead. CD is tested and works on another computer. there is no option to boot from USB (kind of old computer). I couldn't find any BIOS updates on the manufacturer's (Fujtsu Siemens) website. what do I do? | 21:47 |
| bstarek | maxwellian:cmd...ipconfig /all ? | 21:47 |
| ubforce | alan502: Should the .deb have "just worked"? (I have two other machines I'm trying this on) | 21:47 |
| blouaap | kato yesw on gnome | 21:48 |
| kato | blouaap, go to System-Preferences-Main menu | 21:48 |
| maxwellian | bstarek: Perfect. :) Post the results to ubuntu.pastebin.com | 21:48 |
| emma | Does anyone here enjoy playing with drupal? | 21:48 |
| maxwellian | touchaddict: To be safe, try sudo apt-get -s install firefox-3.5 | 21:48 |
| blouaap | on lucid btw | 21:48 |
| emma | maxwellian: i like your nick, are you a physics guy? | 21:49 |
| maxwellian | touchaddict: The -s means "simulate" so we can see what apt-get would try to do. | 21:49 |
| bstarek | maxwellian: i doesnt let me select it and copy it from msdos | 21:49 |
| maxwellian | emma: Unfortunately no. I think in my head it's a combination of Maxwell and Orwellian. Although I don't have any special knowledge of or affinity toward George Orwell either. Basically I'm a sham. :) | 21:50 |
| emma | you are a shamWOW | 21:50 |
| emma | :) | 21:50 |
| maxwellian | emma: Nice. :) | 21:50 |
| anthony_ | ubntu sucks | 21:50 |
| ubforce | When I double-click a .deb file (to install an app), should it just work? (assuming all else is well) | 21:51 |
| thibow | emma, love | 21:51 |
| emma | This is weird, anthony_ doesn't show up on my tab complete | 21:51 |
| maxwellian | bstarek: If you can select in the DOS window, then it should automatically be copied to your clipboard. | 21:51 |
| IdleOne | emma: he quit soon as he said it | 21:51 |
| emma | IdleOne: ahh. I forgot that I turned off joins and parts for this channel because there's so many :) | 21:52 |
| emma | IdleOne: sorry :D | 21:52 |
| guntbert | bstarek: (in windows): right click on the cmd window, select "copy", select the text with the mouse hten press <eneter> -- then its in your clipboard | 21:52 |
| maxwellian | ubforce: Assuming all else is well, yes. :) | 21:52 |
| maxwellian | ubforce: Sorry, why are you installing that way? | 21:53 |
| shishire | What should I use for 802.11g scanning? I tried prismstumbler, but nothing happens when I run it. | 21:53 |
| ubforce | maxwellian: Can't get it any other way | 21:53 |
| bstarek | maxwellian: i did imagebin http://imagebin.ca/view/XKbrHn.html | 21:53 |
| bstarek | maxwellian: i did printscreen on paint | 21:54 |
| ubforce | maxwellian: wanna give it a go? | 21:54 |
| simar | what is the purpose of package evdev and udev ? | 21:54 |
| simar | !info evdev | 21:54 |
| ubottu | Package evdev does not exist in lucid | 21:54 |
| Roey | hi | 21:55 |

| airtonix | emma, yes I do, but you should ask in #drupal | 21:55 |
| Ose | again, i'm trying to install the 10.04 netbook remix. BIOS is set to boot from CD first, but still boots XP from HD instead. CD is tested and works on another computer. there is no option to boot from USB (kind of old computer). I couldn't find any BIOS updates on the manufacturer's (Fujtsu Siemens) website. what options do I have? | 21:55 |
| bstarek | maxwellian: its in french tho | 21:55 |

| emma | airtonix: It's not a problem it's an opportunity! | 21:56 |
| emma | airtonix: are you in #Drupal? | 21:56 |
| touchaddict | maxwellian: alright i ran the command. it says: http://pastebin.ca/1893576 | 21:56 |

| IdleOne | simar: /msg ubottu info xserver-xorg-input-evdev | 21:57 |
| touchaddict | maxwellian: ^^ check the output from the terminal :-/ | 21:57 |
| maxwellian | touchaddict: Looking... | 21:57 |
| emma | airtonix: but you enjoy playing with drupal? | 21:57 |
| airtonix | emma, i have my moments | 21:57 |
| emma | airtonix: some people like to hack around with that kind of thing for fun. | 21:57 |
| bstarek | maxwellian: do you think there is a proxy or firewall blocking? | 21:57 |
| simar | IdleOne, Whats the different command that can be send to bot . is there a wiki page?? | 21:57 |
| maxwellian | bstarek: No, but do you have some reason to think so? Has someone just installed something like that at your house? | 21:58 |
| IdleOne | emma: Please go to #ubuntu-offtopic or in private. Thank you | 21:58 |
| IdleOne | !bot > simar | 21:58 |
| ubottu | simar, please see my private message | 21:58 |
| bstarek | maxwellian: not but it has already happened to me a lonnng time ago...but i did install a proxy at that time....not this time tho | 21:59 |
| maxwellian | touchaddict: Hrm...I don't know how long they go with the same package for firefox. | 21:59 |
| fenix | ola | 21:59 |

| DefaultTo0 | Hi. Whenever I try to use the Ubuntu Update Manager, I have two updates available - vlc and vlc-nox. I get the following error during the update process: http://pastebin.org/376559 What should I do? | 22:00 |
| IdleOne | !es | fenix Ola. | 22:00 |
| ubottu | fenix Ola.: En la mayoría de canales de Ubuntu se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español o charlar entra en el canal #ubuntu-es. Escribe "/join #ubuntu-es" (sin comillas) y dale a enter. | 22:00 |

| ubottu | kato, please see my private message | 22:00 |
| touchaddict | maxwellian: right said, on windows, i went to filehippo.com downloaded the older .exe and it worked for me, both FF3.5 and FF3.6 are running well. | 22:00 |
| ChogyDan | DefaultTo0: I would just remove the packages, and then reinstall | 22:00 |
| DefaultTo0 | ChogyDan: Will this remove all of my customisations, e.g. keyboard shortcuts? | 22:01 |
| willwork4foo | I've finally managed to get my netbook's CPU to heat up! All I had to do is set synaptic to install about 30 apps concurrently, whilst running a ~150GB rsync over wifi and compiling a bunch of source code for work at the same time! | 22:01 |
| simar | !bot > simar | 22:01 |
| ubottu | simar, please see my private message | 22:01 |
| willwork4foo | excellent. | 22:01 |
| ChogyDan | DefaultTo0: I think vlc and vlc-nox should conflict, so you can probably just remove one or the other | 22:01 |
| maxwellian | touchaddict: Sure, but in Linux we're dealing with binary packages, and we may not have one for every version. | 22:02 |
| simar | !msgthebot > simar | 22:02 |
| ubottu | simar, please see my private message | 22:02 |
| IdleOne | simar: do you have a msg window from ubottu ? | 22:02 |
| ChogyDan | DefaultTo0: nvm, I don't know | 22:03 |
| guntbert | ChogyDan: DefaultTo0: no vlc depends on vlc-nox | 22:03 |
| IdleOne | simar: you can type commands in that window to ubottu, example: type irc in that window | 22:03 |
| X-Sleepy-X | I have 10.04 installed on my Eee and ever since that release I've been getting an error during boot at random times. The error is that all I see is a black screen with a white marker up in the left corner that doesn't blink. I can just shut down the PC and start it all over again but it's kind of annoying so now I wonder how to trouble shoot this. I would like to know which log I could check or if there is anything else I can do? | 22:04 |
| X-Sleepy-X | Thanks in advance! | 22:04 |
| sllide | how do i format a USB in fat16? | 22:04 |
| DefaultTo0 | ChogyDan, guntbert: If I remove vlc and vlc-nox and then reinstall, will I lose my customisations? | 22:04 |
| HAPPY | hi there | 22:04 |
| duffydack | sllide, System, Admin, Disk Utility is probably easiest for you | 22:04 |
| guntbert | DefaultTo0: no, your setting are kept within your home directory, they are never touched | 22:05 |
| touchaddict | maxwellian: shall i purge then? | 22:05 |
| bstarek | maxwellian: i cant even access local network | 22:05 |
| bstarek | maxwellian: local ping dont work | 22:05 |
| guntbert | sllide: is your usb key smaller than 2 GB? | 22:06 |
| Ose | and again, i'm trying to install the 10.04 netbook remix. BIOS is set to boot from CD first, but still boots XP from HD instead. CD is tested and works on another computer. there is no option to boot from USB (kind of old computer). I couldn't find any BIOS updates on the manufacturer's (Fujtsu Siemens) website. what options do I have? | 22:06 |
| DefaultTo0 | guntbert: OK, thanks very much! :) | 22:06 |
| maxwellian | touchaddict: I think we're going to need to do some apt-get voodoo here, which I don't know how to do yet. | 22:06 |
| htrejh | hi, i installed ubuntu lucid and unchecked the option to install the bootloader, but now i need it and i'm in a livcd, can someone help me? | 22:06 |
| maxwellian | touchaddict: Basically we need to force apt-get to download an older version of the firefox-3.5 package. | 22:07 |
| IdleOne | !grub2 |> htrejh | 22:07 |
| ubottu | htrejh, please see my private message | 22:07 |
| sllide | guntbert, yes | 22:07 |
| sllide | guntbert, but disk untility doesnt allow me to make it fat16 | 22:07 |
| htrejh | IdleOne: i know but i don't find how to use it | 22:07 |
| maxwellian | bstarek: Bleh. Sorry we're having so much trouble. On the Ubuntu machine, can you double click the network icon at the top right and go to Connection properties? | 22:08 |
| maxwellian | bstarek: Er, connection information. | 22:08 |
| DefaultTo0 | guntbert: That did the trick, thanks :) | 22:08 |
| IdleOne | htrejh: go to the link ubottu just sent you | 22:08 |
| ocatacoo | is there a differemce in ssh and sshserver | 22:08 |
| guntbert | DefaultTo0: glad it worked for you :-) | 22:08 |
| maxwellian | ocatacoo: ssh is the client, sshserver is the server. | 22:08 |
| htrejh | i know but i don't have to recover, i must install it | 22:08 |
| maxwellian | ocatacoo: What are you trying to do? | 22:08 |
| guntbert | sllide: I never tried | 22:09 |
| maxwellian | ocatacoo: Apparently just doing "apt-get install ssh" will bring in both the client and server. That's what my package manager tells me, anyway. | 22:09 |
| IdleOne | htrejh: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2#Recover Grub 2 via LiveCD will install the boot loader | 22:10 |
| htrejh | ok thx | 22:10 |
| Aeronius | help! Installing Ubuntu and hanging at importing docs and settings, hard drive is too small! | 22:11 |
| maxwellian | bstarek: Any luck getting that connection information? I want to compare it to your Windows box. | 22:11 |
| maxwellian | Aeronius: Uh, it didn't tell you before you started that you didn't have enough room? | 22:12 |
| Aeronius | nope, I shouldn't have told it to import music and pictures... | 22:12 |
| cntrational | trying to install python-wxgtk2.8 returns an error http://pastebin.com/m8rhfUvr | 22:12 |
| thune3 | X-Sleepy-X: I can't tell from your description how far along the boot is before the screen blanks. The first approach would be to enable the appearence of the grub menu and to disable "splash quiet" so that the kernel shows messages to the terminal. | 22:13 |
| Aeronius | anyways, no other dimwits have had this problem that I can tell from Google searches, can I abort the install and restart? | 22:13 |
| bstarek | maxwellian: sure one sec | 22:14 |
| Aeronius | how would I do that? | 22:14 |
| X-Sleepy-X | thune3: Ok, thanks! I will do so, and take a note on what I see next time it occurs. | 22:14 |
| MariaKeys | hello folks. is there someone well-versed with ext3 recovery? | 22:14 |
| bstarek | maxwellian: there isnt much information in it | 22:14 |
| MariaKeys | basically, how to find hte blocks occupied by a previous version of file? say: we have 1gb archive.tar. and we overwrite this file with 1mb archive.tar. what to do find previous contents of this file? | 22:15 |
| thune3 | X-Sleepy-X: these settings can be done using /etc/default/grub | 22:15 |
| X-Sleepy-X | thune3: Ok. | 22:15 |
| Aeronius | anyone know what I should do? it's 83% finished installing but hung... | 22:15 |

| maxwellian | Aeronius: Don't give us the play-by-play, you'll flood the channel. | 22:18 |
| maxwellian | Aeronius: If you're dual booting, it's easy to mount the Windows partition so that you can have access to all the music and stuff. | 22:18 |

| win_2_linux | When burning cds/dvds using brassero, do you have to close all programs like you do in windows? | 22:43 |
| guest_ | trying to be idiot proof... made xorg an idiot ? | 22:43 |
| gryllida | guest_: how much RAM and CPU are you having? | 22:43 |
| Aeronius | It looks like I have to delete the partition with gparted and then reinstal... | 22:44 |
| IdleOne | win_2_linux: not normally but I guess it is sensible | 22:44 |
| DasEi | win_2_linux: neither in win nor in linux you have to, unless very poor hardware-specs | 22:44 |
| win_2_linux | 1.6 ghtz and 1 gig ram | 22:44 |
| guest_ | gryllida: enough 1g cpu 512m ram | 22:44 |
| guest_ | gryllida: i can run xorg in 32m ram 133mhz | 22:45 |
| gryllida | guest_: are you installing it first time, or was it working previously? | 22:45 |
| DasEi | win_2_linux: you can watch the consumption by htop or conky while burning and then decide | 22:45 |
| bstarek | maxwellian: MY FRIEND I FIXED IT!!! | 22:46 |
| guest_ | gryllida: i've used ubuntu for 5 years ... just clean installed 10.4 worked first boot, not second boot. | 22:46 |
| Samual | guest_, indeed, xorg has a lot of regressions in Ubuntu now | 22:46 |
| win_2_linux | I asked because when I was burning it, I read email, surfed the web, and chatted on irc | 22:46 |
| guest_ | Samual: indeed | 22:47 |
| win_2_linux | and it burned successfully | 22:47 |
| frank82vt | How can i make a ubuntu internet shortcut that been readable in windows ? | 22:47 |

| win_2_linux | I was burning the new alpha of ubuntu | 22:47 |
| guest_ | Samual: it's not lts | 22:47 |
| Samual | Oh well :P | 22:47 |
| guest_ | Samual: and even 9.4 is junk IMO | 22:47 |
| Stupendoussteve | win_2_linux: If you have to ask about burning and using the system at the same time, I highly suggest you do not run an Alpha | 22:47 |
| Samual | I remember back in 8.10 | 22:47 |
| Samual | When everything worked perfectly except audio :P | 22:48 |
| Stupendoussteve | Your system is likely to be broken, a lot. | 22:48 |

| Aeronius | OK, I have a live cd up, and I can see my friend's hard drive, it looks like it's mounting the mymusic folder automatically, instead of copying, so what's the problem, why won't it let me into the desktop? | 22:50 |
| frank82vt | IdleOne Im talking about to create a internet shortkut in firefox and then copy it in ubuntu desktop | 22:50 |

| teknohan | hi I use skype and my university webside has one link to call them but firefox said me "" Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because the protocol (skype) isn't associated with any program. "" what can i do to fix that? | 22:53 |
| usacomputertec | my LCD Screen has a strange circle mark on it that looks like a hard water stain but it won't come off. | 22:53 |
| usacomputertec | I think it's burnt | 22:53 |
| usacomputertec | it's just on the surface what should I do | 22:53 |
| IdleOne | frank82vt: if you mean your Bookmarks I believe you can make a backup and then import that backup file in ubuntu firefox | 22:53 |
| codebrainz | usacomputertec, you've tried cleaning it? sometimes heat from being folded closed can cause issues, but once open for a while/refreshed, it should go away | 22:54 |
| maxwellian | teknohan: Can you open skype and use the link from within? | 22:54 |
| Aeronius | OK it's not mounting it! | 22:54 |

| teknohan | maxwellian: even I added a plugin for it but not working yet | 22:55 |
| maxwellian | teknohan: I don't use Skype, but I doubt Firefox is supposed to be the one sending the link to Skype. | 22:55 |
| frank82vt | IdleOne I prefer don`t use bookmarks | 22:56 |
| maxwellian | teknohan: What about callto: then the link? Instead of skype:// | 22:57 |

| guest__ | guntbert ? | 22:58 |
| maxwellian | ilumi: If you don't think you'll need a local webserver anytime soon, just remove it. | 22:59 |
| DasEi | Aeronius: open a terminal on the livecd | 22:59 |
| maxwellian | ilumi: Is it causing trouble for you somehow? | 22:59 |
| Pr0jectRec0n | is ther a link which shows the current version of apps that are in the synaptic pkg manager ? | 22:59 |
| teknohan | maxwellian: link is not callto but it may work also I found the way I just read the link and I found name of user and added:D | 22:59 |
| mistermatt | how can I change ubuntu's start up sound | 22:59 |
| codebrainz | ilumi, the volume isn't lower, you just don't have it turned up all the way. pulse audio is a bit of a mystery, but there's several controls that need to be cranked to get full volume. | 22:59 |
| mneptok | ilumi: did you install the LAMP stack? | 22:59 |
| maxwellian | teknohan: Good, glad you worked around it. | 22:59 |
| mneptok | ilumi: or Ampache or something similar? | 22:59 |
| mistermatt | is that the gnome login sound? | 22:59 |
| DasEi | Aeronius: sudo fdisk -l << determine which partition it's on | 23:00 |

| acholonu | i did all that. I don't have windows install on this desktop | 23:07 |
| guest__ | ah yeah the screensaver says "give me your password" system says 'what freekin password?' | 23:08 |
| delaman | maxwellian: was working just fine, i think i installed screen and another program around the time it stopped working | 23:08 |
| oka | |GaiJin|, rightclick mousebutton on desktop, select Change Desktop Background, then select Visual Effects and then None | 23:08 |
| DasEi | fabio: sudo umount -a , then button (faster) sudo shutdown -P now (the safer choice) | 23:08 |

| damnfs | Hello, Question: How can I disable SSH tunneling? | 23:09 |
| maxwellian | delaman: Could be important what the other program was... | 23:09 |
| maxwellian | damnfs: Good question, I was trying to figure that out myself a couple of weeks ago...didn't get anywhere. :( | 23:10 |
| DasEi | damnfs: in which manner ? dissallow ssh on your box ? | 23:10 |
| maxwellian | damnfs: What are you trying to prevent? | 23:10 |
| gryllida | damnfs. how did you enable it in first place? | 23:10 |
| Stupendoussteve | It's enabled in the first place | 23:10 |
| ilumi | Oer, no its just not loud enough, i am sure they limit the maximum volume in the driver | 23:11 |
| |GaiJin| | thanks oka | 23:11 |
| maxwellian | damnfs: The only thing I've seen is if someone is using private keys, there's an option in their allowed keys file or something. But that's dumb because the user owns that file. | 23:11 |
| damnfs | @all answered: i just want to disable http forwarding via tunneling through SSH | 23:11 |
| Stupendoussteve | damnfs: Looked in /etc/ssh/sshd_config or whatever Ubuntu hides it? There should be an option | 23:11 |
| Oer | ilumi, i know, with flat equaliser you hear -20db i use this 10 band > http://www.lirmm.fr/~morandat/index.php/Main/Tools | 23:11 |
| maxwellian | damnfs: Trying to prevent people getting around your firewall? | 23:11 |
| damnfs | Stupendoussteve: is this option named "AllowTcpForwarding" ? | 23:12 |
| Stupendoussteve | damnfs: The option is PermitTunnel, BTW | 23:12 |
| DasEi | damnfs: or simply pure the ssh-server, for just a session stop the daemon, or make ssh inexecutable | 23:12 |
| vu1kan | so the other day, my up key got bound to 'take a screenshot' all on it's own. I checked the config utility and it said that function was still bound to the print key, but when I'd press it, nothing would happen. Even after I cleared the key binding, the up key continued it's abberent behavior. Now, it fixed itself after I logged out, but I was wondering if anyone knew what could've caused this? I'd like to avoid having it happen | 23:12 |
| delaman | maxwellian: rtorrent, dont think it has anything to do with LAMP | 23:12 |
| ilumi | Oer, ill check it out, but does this work system wide? | 23:12 |
| oka | |GaiJin|, np, if it was up to me, compiz should have been turned off by default, makes the desktop too slow on old machines | 23:13 |
| Oer | ilumi, no, only rhytmbox, a system wide equaliser is still on the wishlist | 23:13 |
| Stupendoussteve | damnfs: man sshd_config lists them all, you can better decide what works for you | 23:13 |
| DasEi | damnfs: pure=purge* | 23:13 |
| maxwellian | Stupendoussteve: Are you sure that's the right option? The name sounds nice, but the description doesn't seem relevant... | 23:13 |

| |GaiJin| | oka: I agree... | 23:14 |
| maxwellian | fuzzybunny69y: lubuntu is the name for a suite of applications providing a desktop experience. It is an alternative to ubuntu, xubuntu, kubuntu, etc. | 23:14 |
| Oer | ilumi, i forget to ask, did you go into soundprefs, and you see the mastervolume is hanging at 100% but there is a overdrive ? | 23:14 |
| maxwellian | fuzzybunny69y: What are you trying to do? | 23:15 |
| maxwellian | delaman: Okay, try just re-installing the package you mentioned. | 23:15 |
| maxwellian | delaman: Er, I should say, try installing it. | 23:16 |
| Stupendoussteve | damnfs: To answer better, if your issue is people using the -D option to set up a socks proxy, the AllowTcpForwarding should do it. The other option I put is for an actual tunnel | 23:16 |
| fuzzybunny69y | maxwellian, well I have a server machine that I access through SSH but i want to sometimes be able to use graphical applications as well so was wondering if there was someway to get into lubuntu from my ssh prompt | 23:16 |
| maxwellian | fuzzybunny69y: Oh, you want to use the graphical stuff over ssh? | 23:16 |
| damnfs | how can i limit SSH tunneling to a group only? | 23:17 |
| fuzzybunny69y | maxwellian, yeah whenever I run startx though it gives me this error message X: user not authorized to run the X server, aborting. | 23:17 |
| maxwellian | Stupendoussteve: "Note that disabling TCP forwarding does not improve security unless users are also denied shell access, as they can always install their own forwarders." | 23:18 |
| Stupendoussteve | Of course | 23:18 |
| Oer | ilumi, see my screenshot, the master volume is 100% but can go over it >http://picpaste.com/Schermafdruk.png | 23:18 |
| Stupendoussteve | That makes perfect sense, anyone can drop in a small proxy app | 23:18 |
| maxwellian | Stupendoussteve: So they mean some OTHER proxy app, but sshd won't provide it? | 23:19 |
| ilumi | Oer, im in kubuntu, no overdrive | 23:19 |
| maxwellian | fuzzybunny69y: Are you running it as root? | 23:19 |
| maxwellian | fuzzybunny69y: I.e. sudo startx | 23:19 |
| fuzzybunny69y | oh no I was just running it as the user I logged in as | 23:20 |
| fuzzybunny69y | maxwellian, oh no I was just running it as the user I logged in as | 23:20 |
| maxwellian | fuzzybunny69y: You won't have permission to do that. | 23:20 |
| maxwellian | fuzzybunny69y: But don't run startx anyway. | 23:20 |
| DasEi | damnfs: safest remove ssh, as it's quickly reinstalled, you can save your keys before, or make ssh non executable, group ssh is another option, but likely to be underdriven | 23:20 |
| Stupendoussteve | You can run graphical apps on one system from the xsession on another | 23:20 |
| maxwellian | fuzzybunny69y: Just testing it out now, but I think ssh -X is what you want. | 23:21 |
| damnfs | DasEi: I want ppl to have access on SSH but not tunneling | 23:21 |
| Stupendoussteve | damnfs: I don't know that you can limit it to certain users | 23:21 |
| maxwellian | fuzzybunny69y: Try ssh -X yourserver.com and then type "xclock" | 23:22 |
| Stupendoussteve | damnfs: actually... you can, see the very bottom of the config file | 23:22 |
| Stupendoussteve | damnfs: You can Match Group ____ and then enable TCP forwarding for just them | 23:23 |
| homiziado | Hello guys, question: just bought a fitpc2 - www.fit-pc.com - but turns out i can't connect it to a tv, could I configure if from a laptop with an ethernet cable? | 23:24 |
| Pr0jectRec0n | hey all , I installed an application from source , and it got installed successfully | 23:27 |
| DasEi | homiziado: funny thing that.. humm, can it boot from a usb stick ? is there any possib to get visual output ? | 23:27 |
| maxwellian | Stupendoussteve: That looks interesting, thanks. I've been wondering how to do this myself! :) | 23:27 |
| Pr0jectRec0n | but, I want to add it to my applications start menu - a kind of 'Launcher' - How do I do it ? | 23:28 |
| Chaiwalla | hello. can someone help me figure out why I dont have any sound? | 23:28 |
| homiziado | well... on the tv I can boot but only in safe mode, no graphics | 23:28 |
| DasEi | !who | homiziado | 23:28 |
| ubottu | homiziado: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) | 23:28 |
| codebrainz | Pr0jectRec0n, right click on the menu, click Edit Menu, add it through the GUI ... or add a .desktop file to /usr/share/applications | 23:29 |
| homiziado | sorry guys | 23:29 |
| soadkombucha | Is there any way that on one workspace I can disable the two panels while leaving them in place on the other 3? | 23:29 |
| Chaiwalla | can someone help me figure out why I dont have any sound? I'm not sure if I removed the drivers or something? | 23:29 |
| DasEi | homiziado: so you got a tv out where you least can see the boot screen ? | 23:30 |
| vu1kan | !sound | Chaiwalla | 23:30 |
| ubottu | Chaiwalla: If you're having problems with sound, click the Volume applet, then Sound Preferences, and check your Volume, Hardware, Input, and Output settings. If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !players and !mp3. | 23:30 |
| homiziado | DasEi yes | 23:31 |
| DasEi | homiziado: can you boot a live cd ? | 23:31 |
| p4_ | hi all! | 23:31 |
| hypercaine | hi | 23:31 |
| homiziado | DasEi the thing doesn't have cd drive | 23:31 |
| marc_ | go | 23:31 |
| DasEi | homiziado: can you boot from usb ? | 23:32 |
| Pr0jectRec0n | codebrainz, thanks a lot | 23:32 |
| marc_ | hi | 23:32 |
| homiziado | DasEi didn't try yet, what could I do if it booted from usb? | 23:32 |
| delinquentme | !rspec | 23:32 |
| delinquentme | can someone give me a one liner definition of what rspec does? | 23:33 |
| shruggar | is there anything I can use to get a visualization of already-playing audio? I'm playing an swf-streamed radio show on my TV (bigger speakers), and I'd like something other than a web-browser to look at in the mean time | 23:33 |
| soadkombucha | Does anyone know if there's a way to do what I want? to remove the applications panel and the program panel from one workspace while leaving it intact on the others? | 23:33 |
| DasEi | homiziado: or put the hd out and in your laptop ? if you could boot usb, can set up a custom live on usb, that provides a ss-server, then could connect from your lappi, is the tv out the only solution or is there vga, too ? | 23:33 |
| fcuk112_ | for dvd ripping, is xvid or divx4 or divx5 better? | 23:34 |
| marc_ | i dot know | 23:34 |
| codebrainz | delinquentme, "RSpec is a behavior driven development (BDD) framework for the Ruby programming language, inspired by JBehave.[1] It contains its own mocking framework that is fully integrated into the framework based upon JMock." -wikipedia | 23:34 |
| homiziado | DasEi I think I can get the hd out and in the laptop most likely | 23:35 |
| delinquentme | codebrainz, thanks .. still is kinda chinese to me | 23:35 |
| codebrainz | delinquentme, me too :) not much big on frameworks | 23:36 |
| jacob_ | hey i know this is wrong question for here....but does any know where to get the atlantis plugin for compiz | 23:36 |
| Jhonny5 | Hi | 23:36 |
| homiziado | DasEi tks a lot! | 23:36 |
| delinquentme | yeah its kinda more a rails question but no bites in #rubyonrails .. thanks tho! | 23:36 |
| DasEi | homiziado: that'll be easiest, then install headless system on hd by minimal installer and set up ssh on it, settle back and do the rest remtely -- but how is that box build, has it vga, too ? | 23:37 |
| Jhonny5 | i want to upgrade ubuntu 9.04 to 10.04, can i upgrade directly or i have to pass first in 9.10 version? | 23:37 |
| soreau | jacob_: Why not ask in the right place if you know this is the wrong one? ;) | 23:37 |
| DasEi | Jhonny5: first 9.10 | 23:37 |
| Jhonny5 | DasEi, Ok, thanks. :) | 23:38 |
| jacob_ | soreau: lol cause i've been away from ubuntu for about a year and don't remember the chat name for compiz | 23:38 |
| soreau | jacob_: #compiz | 23:38 |
| maxwellian | soreau: Surprise! ;) | 23:38 |
| jacob_ | soreau: totally thought it was something different...ty | 23:38 |
| homiziado | DasEi only an hdmi port! | 23:38 |
| FloodBot3 | !netsplit | 23:38 |
| ubottu | netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit | 23:38 |
| === Tonus_ is now known as Tonus | ||
| codebrainz | jacob_, git clone git://anongit.compiz-fusion.org/fusion/plugins/atlantis might work | 23:39 |
| DasEi | homiziado: aharr.. green line, hehe, and you have no 2000x200 widescreen I assume | 23:39 |
| purevol | ahoy all | 23:39 |
| soreau | codebrainz: No, it wont. At least, not with the 0.8 version of compiz that ubuntu uses by default | 23:39 |
| soreau | codebrainz: he would need to checkout the 0.8 branch of the plugin after cloning it | 23:39 |
| delinquentme | codebrainz, FYI ... i THINK this is what i was looking for ... (in a RoR context) rspec is used as the TESTING in " TDD" for the existence of the ACTUAL items in /app | 23:40 |
| codebrainz | soreau, cool, it was the only source i found in 3 minutes of googlage | 23:40 |
| purevol | anyone here running thunderbird 3.1 on lucid, and by chance using ubuntuzilla.py? | 23:40 |
| === McPeter_ is now known as McPeter | ||
| codebrainz | soreau, I'm not too fond of compiz, i got my wiggly windows and tiled window layout and I'm happy :) | 23:41 |
| homiziado | DasEi I think the problem when connecting to the tv is something about the resolution | 23:41 |
| vaul | I have a problem with poor HDTV performance, despite having enough powerful computer. Disablin compositing effects do not help. | 23:41 |
| DasEi | homiziado:well, there are converters to standard monitors, too | 23:42 |
| vaul | Codecs are installed. | 23:42 |
| vaul | Any ideas? | 23:42 |
| codebrainz | vaul, what player? | 23:42 |
| vaul | codebrainz: Totem, VLC — this do not matter, lag in both. | 23:43 |
| homiziado | DasEi I was trying to avoid buying a standrad monitor :p but if this doesn't work I think I'll do that | 23:43 |
| DasEi | homiziado: I experimented little with svga-outlets and scart concerning pc on tv, but the results werent too good, pc-monitor is always the better, and tft- greener choice | 23:43 |
| === neutrino is now known as tar- | ||
| codebrainz | vaul, in vlc, try changing the output module, try a few of those, otherwise i'm not sure | 23:43 |
| vaul | codebrainz: Okay, I'll try. Any other idea, beyond that? Why it do not work properly on Totem, for example? | 23:44 |
| soreau | jacob_: Having trouble figuring out how to get to #compiz? ;) | 23:44 |
| DasEi | homiziado: for now can just try to build an accesible system via the laptop and then try to configure the graphics, if there is a picutre at all, might work | 23:44 |
| wildbat | homiziado, it don't even have nvidia ION ~... the price .... mmm ~ you must be a green ppl for supporting it. anyway don't you have safemode working? or a !tty? | 23:44 |
| codebrainz | vaul, video drivers, output module (ie. x11 vs opengl vs whatever) ... that's all i can think of | 23:45 |
| homiziado | DasEi what do you mean with configuring the graphics? | 23:45 |
| jacob_ | last dumb question.....to change channels in smuxi is simly /j then channel name right? | 23:45 |
| homiziado | wildbat I have safemode working but I'm too much of a noob for being able to configure stuff without graphics | 23:46 |
| DasEi | homiziado: well, getting the used chipset of that cakebox, then friggling out how to configure it's driver and hdmi - new stuff for me, too | 23:46 |
| wildbat | !resolution | homiziado | 23:47 |
| ubottu | homiziado: The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type « sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart » in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution | 23:47 |
| DasEi | homiziado: for that you need a running, accesible system on that hardware | 23:47 |
| DasEi | !ssh | 23:47 |
| ubottu | SSH is the Secure SHell protocol, see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto for client usage. PuTTY is an SSH client for Windows; see: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ for it's homepage. See also !scp (Secure CoPy) and !sshd (Secure SHell Daemon) | 23:47 |
| DasEi | !minimal | 23:47 |
| ubottu | The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 23:47 |
| DasEi | homiziado: ^ | 23:47 |
| vaul | codebrainz: Have proprietry drivers active, compiz disabled, those outputs tested. | 23:48 |
| vaul | codebrainz: Didn't work. | 23:48 |
| wildbat | !VNC | homiziado | 23:48 |
| ubottu | homiziado: VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely. It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX | 23:48 |
| ZykoticK9 | vaul, are you using nvidia? | 23:48 |
| vaul | ZykoticK9: Yes. | 23:48 |
| homiziado | ubottu tks | 23:49 |
| DasEi | homiziado: that minimal installer allows you (expert-install) to have none but minimal software on it first, and then you can set up a repositorylist and install ssh, re-connect to cakebox and then use lappi to figure out your specs and needs | 23:49 |
| ZykoticK9 | vaul, check out mplayer with VDPAU support - hardware graphics card assisted video rendering! There is a vdpau PPA you can add, but you might be able to just install libvdpau1 and have it work with the PPA I believe. Good luck. | 23:49 |
| DasEi | homiziado: ubott is the channel ro-bot | 23:49 |
| vaul | ZykoticK9: Can any other player suppor that? | 23:50 |
| ZykoticK9 | vaul, sorry s/with/without the PPA | 23:50 |
| DasEi | homiziado: is there a OS on it now ? | 23:50 |
| ZykoticK9 | vaul, the newest VLC (NOT in repo or probably packaged for Debian yet) has SOME sort of hardware support. | 23:50 |
| vaul | ZykoticK9: Okay, that's something to start with. I'll try, thank you. | 23:50 |
| homiziado | DasEi it comes with ubuntu pre-installed | 23:50 |
| homiziado | DasEi actually I'm a bit afraid to install something on top of it because it is somehow customized because of the graphics chip | 23:51 |
| DasEi | homiziado: aharr.. so that (minimal..) would be contraproductional then | 23:51 |
| soadkombucha | If I have a stable kernel should I not update to the newest one? | 23:52 |
| DasEi | homiziado: so basically you need a 10 min "in view to get ssh up and running then ... if you boot it on tv and ... | 23:52 |
| vaul | ZykoticK9: Reminded me of that xcbd comic: «—It took a lot of work, but that linux patch enables support for 4,096 CPU's, up from the old limit of 1,024. —Do you have support for smooth HDTV video playback? —No, but who uses that?» | 23:52 |
| DasEi | homiziado: press alt-ctrl-F2 , can you see a command line ? | 23:52 |
| ZykoticK9 | vaul, :) I didn't see that one. | 23:53 |
| homiziado | DasEi I don't have it here know, but I can get to the command line | 23:53 |
| homiziado | DasEi the things I was afraid to do on the command line was setting up a newuser adn I was thinking also having to put some autologin preferences? | 23:53 |
| DasEi | homiziado: so thats great then, its a 2-3 steps thing to make it accessable via ssh then | 23:53 |
| Scoobydoo | I'm setting a hotkey for opening the Python interpreter, What would be the way? | 23:54 |
| homiziado | DasEi after its configured I can access it with ssh -x? | 23:54 |
| NitzchONot | Anyone knows how can i 're-enable' burg bootloader? It got overwritten after Grub update.. | 23:54 |
| DasEi | homiziado: you have the default user n pass ? | 23:54 |
| Scoobydoo | /usr/bin/python would open it in the background? | 23:54 |
| homiziado | DasEi yes | 23:55 |
| DasEi | homiziado: rest no prob then, yes ssh x would also forward x apps | 23:55 |
| DasEi | homiziado: you have any additional display devices apart tv home ? | 23:56 |
| homiziado | DasEi just my laptop | 23:56 |
| NitzchONot | Anyone knows how can i 're-enable' burg bootloader? It got overwritten after Grub update.. | 23:56 |
| homiziado | DasEi how do I know the ip of the device? | 23:56 |
| maxwellian | Scoobydoo: What are you trying to do? You want to open a terminal running the python interpreter? | 23:56 |
| Scoobydoo | maxwellian: Yup indeedy | 23:57 |
| maxwellian | Scoobydoo: What were you asking about running in the background? | 23:57 |
| DasEi | homiziado: least i know there are ways to get it on a tft , too, for sure easier to configure ;; ifconfig on cakebox shows it's ip, if configured | 23:57 |
| maxwellian | NitzchONot: Burg bootloader, I don't know what that is... | 23:58 |
| maxwellian | NitzchONot: Looking it up now... | 23:58 |
| NitzchONot | maxwellian, http://code.google.com/p/burg/ | 23:58 |
| Scoobydoo | maxwellian: If I just put python or /usr/bin/python thats what it will do, Which of course won't be very good | 23:58 |
| Scoobydoo | Need to spawn a new window with the python interpreter in it | 23:59 |
| homiziado | DasEi I'll try doing ifconfig then | 23:59 |
| maxwellian | Scoobydoo: Do you know how to set a hotkey? | 23:59 |
