[00:00] <Pirate_Hunter> khelvan, oh thats weird most of the times you wouldn't need to reboot, hmmm... I guess the rest would be your music and videos but yeah use disk analyser just be sure and remove all that you dont need
[00:01] <xim_> i'm trying to export my notes from tomboy to HTML and then open the HTML in openoffice, but tomboy seems to use simple LF for hard return and exports it like that, then openoffice ignores the whitespace and collapses all the paragraphs into a wall of text.... any ideas?
[00:01] <Pirate_Hunter> khelvan, also im concerned your system didn't update the hd space once the file was purged, you may want to look into that, however, that topic is beyond my skills
[00:01] <khelvan> Pirate_Hunter: I suspect it had something to do with the USB drive I had plugged in at the time...
[00:02] <khelvan> Pirate_Hunter: In any case, thanks for your help!
[00:03] <Pirate_Hunter> khelvan, oh ok, might be, no problem where here to help as best as we can
[00:03] <Pirate_Hunter> khelvan,  take care

[00:10] <Giggaflop> anyone here got a lot of x11 experiance?
[00:11] <Giggaflop> i need to record one x11 VT from an other
[00:11] <LjL> hiexpo: it might be better to ask in PM or in #ubuntu-ops to keep this channel ontopic
[00:11] <hiexpo> ok
[00:11] <Giggaflop> sebsebseb, boo
[00:11] <tonsofpcs> Giggaflop: why?
[00:11] <Giggaflop> tonsofpcs, i have an appication i need screencast
[00:12] <Giggaflop> and it runs on another VT
[00:12] <Giggaflop> i tried using ffmpeg
[00:12] <tonsofpcs> can't you just run something like vlc set to capture that VT?
[00:12] <kes0> Damn lot of peps here
[00:12] <tonsofpcs> (run it with the option of that VT's display but with interface set to commandline)
[00:12] <Giggaflop> i wouldn't know how
[00:13] <tonsofpcs> there's lots of reference on the subject
[00:13] <vladikoff> can anyone help?
[00:13] <Giggaflop> tonsofpcs, XD yeah for same VT screencasting
[00:13] <sebsebseb> Giggaflop: What?
[00:14] <Giggaflop> by VT recording i mean ctrl - alt f9 from ctrl alt -f7 thingy
[00:14] <Giggaflop> i said hi sebsebseb
[00:14] <tonsofpcs> Giggaflop: right, just add the commandline option --display=[othervt] and set the interface (-I) to commandline
[00:14] <sebsebseb> vladikoff: run the command it wants
[00:15] <sebsebseb> vladikoff: with sudo
[00:15] <vladikoff> sebsebseb, it gave me even more errors
[00:15] <Giggaflop> ok, i tried that with ffmpeg but i'll try with vc too then
[00:15] <sebsebseb> vladikoff: what errors pastebin?  and what were you doing trying to upgrade the version of Ubuntu?
[00:15] <michal_> hellooo
[00:15] <vladikoff> sebsebseb, one moment restarting it
[00:16] <Giggaflop> tonsofpcs, no such option as --display
[00:19] <tarandus> I'm loading the 'demo' of Ubuntu via CD, and it took about 3-4 minutes to load. Is this normal, and it really shouldn't take that long once I install, right? It's probably cause it's booting from CD.
[00:19] <tonsofpcs> probably
[00:19] <vladikoff> sebsebseb, http://pastie.org/1030573 ubuntu 9.10
[00:20] <Giggaflop> ffs

[00:21] <yanick_> hi, I'm having problem with mpg video playback; VLC will play a first mpg film sequence, but when I close it and open another mpg sequence... nothing happens, I actually have 1) reboot, or 2) completely reinstall VLC ... wth?
[00:21] <yanick_> can someone help me debug this?
[00:21] <leagris> tarandus, the live CD boot takes ages. My guess there would be possible optimizations bout this would require special placement of files during the iso mastering. Doable but tricky. I dont know of opensource iso tools able to order files on specific tracks.
[00:21] <vladikoff> hiexpo, can i rollback?
[00:21] <hiexpo> vladikoff,  no if u didn't back up

[00:23] <hiexpo> remove all kde apps

[00:25] <hiexpo> CkhiKuzad,  i think so you are trying to install an app and a kde app try's to install ?
[00:25] <CkhiKuzad> no.
[00:26] <hiexpo> ok wrong than
[00:26] <CkhiKuzad> i am trying to filter my entire add/remove applications program, so that it doesnt let KDE designed apps appear in the list for me. removing my KDE apps wont help
[00:26] <tarandus> wow, ubuntu is gorgeous (still running demo)

[00:28] <vladikoff> i will have to reinstall the whole server now
[00:28] <glick> anyone know how to stop mysqld and prevent it from starting when i restart the computer?
[00:28] <Dougdoug4> glick, how dare you! Ubuntu is more than an operating system, it is a rainbow road to Heaven and it's winged inhabitants that lie beyond the Golden Gates of Jericho.
[00:29] <lee_> lol
[00:30] <ridin> .
[00:30] <tarandus> what web browser are you all using on ubuntu?
[00:30] <ridin> i just went wtf on what doug said
[00:30] <Dougdoug4> I use Google Chrome!
[00:30] <lee_> chrome / google
[00:30] <lee_> fire fox
[00:30] <Dougdoug4> Firefox, sorry no.
[00:30] <tarandus> Can you use the developer version of Chrome on Ubuntu?
[00:31]  * erkan^ loves FireFox Dougdoug4 
[00:31] <Dougdoug4> ubuntu has the ubufox s**t for Firefox, it's a monopoly minus the profit.
[00:31] <Dougdoug4> I am 100% against companies attempted to monopolize themselves.
[00:31] <stage2> is it possible to encrypt a external hd with alternative install?
[00:31] <stage2> or any other way?
[00:31] <tarandus> I'm so stoked for this OS, just staring at the install bar progress itself...
[00:31] <Dougdoug4> stage2, is it possible to use proper grammar?
[00:32] <stage2> wow i missed 1 key, get a life
[00:32] <Dougdoug4> is it possible to encrypt an external hd with an alternative install?
[00:32] <Dougdoug4> oops
[00:32] <Dougdoug4> I did boldtext wrong
[00:32] <Dougdoug4> well s**t happens!
[00:33] <bazhang> Dougdoug4, watch the language please and stay on topic
[00:33] <mneptok> Dougdoug4: and correcting simple grammar mistakes is not helpful.
[00:33] <Dougdoug4> bazhang, I use asterisks !
[00:33] <tarandus> Doug's just tryin to have a good time
[00:34] <bazhang> Dougdoug4, that is not acceptable. keep it family friendly
[00:34] <tarandus> haha, nice
[00:35] <ede> hi, i just deleted a folder off my phone SD card while plugged in Ubuntu....the folder is gone, but the memory usage is still the same. (it moved the deleted item to ".TRASH" folder)
[00:36] <prince_jammys> ede: it's not really deleted until Trash is emptied.
[00:36] <stage2> ede: try cd ~/.Trash
[00:36] <ede> deleted that ".TRASH" folder also, but it didn't free up memory
[00:36] <cleverfoo> hey everyone, is there a way to tell apt to install the 32bit version of a program?
[00:36] <LJRuff> ede, right click and eject the card or empty the trash to free the memory.
[00:36] <cleverfoo> and it's deps
[00:36] <ede> that's the problem,....i ejected the card without deleting the ".TRASH"
[00:36] <letalis> cleverfoo, im interested in that answer myself
[00:37] <ede> and then i went to delete via the phone file browser itself
[00:37] <mneptok> ede: reinsert the card and empty the trash
[00:37] <ede> its gone now
[00:37] <letalis> i want to install zsnes in x86_64 and it even shows up in the software center but wont install because its 32 bit
[00:37] <ede> there's no ".TRASH" folder any longer
[00:37] <ede> but still show 2gig used up
[00:37] <ede> :(
[00:38] <E8newallm> Format the card?
[00:38] <ABBADON> Hello, I'm having an issue with bochs in Ubuntu 10.04 - when I was using 8.04, I was able to load it via a script, but now for some reason whenever I try to mount and use the floppy image, I get a message saying there is no bootable device.  I've searched Google, and everything is correct in the scripts as far as I can tell.  Are floppy images now loaded on a different location than in 8.04?
[00:38] <ede> was hoping to solve it without wiping the card :P
[00:38] <E8newallm> Oh :P
[00:38] <mneptok> letalis: snes9x-x and snes9x-express have 64 bit versions
[00:38] <ABBADON> Also, I'm using kernel version 2.6.32-23-generic.
[00:38] <ede> i guess that is the last resort =(
[00:39] <E8newallm> Yeah :P
[00:39] <letalis> mneptok, yeah i know, but ive always liked zsnes a little better
[00:39] <ede> thought there were more hidden stuff somewhere
[00:39] <sebsebseb> vladikoff: still here?
[00:39] <vladikoff> sebsebseb, yeah
[00:39] <vladikoff> sebsebseb, i am gonna format the server and start over
[00:40] <sebsebseb> Giggaflop: I know this was like 20 minutes or so ago, but I saw it in the backlog,  watch the language :)
[00:40] <tarandus> anyone using Opera on ubuntu?
[00:40] <sebsebseb> tarandus: Why?
[00:40] <ABBADON> tarandus: Yes, I am.
[00:40] <sebsebseb> vladikoff: server aye?
[00:41] <tarandus> a browser war is taking place in my head right now
[00:41] <leagris> Would it be possible to monitor file access pattern of a live boot cd for example using qemu, then generate a weighted list for genisoimage -sort filelist. Thus, It could greatly improve livecd boot time by limiting DVD reader seeks.
[00:41] <vladikoff> sebsebseb, yeah i just wanted to run an upgrade, not sure what happend
[00:41] <Jordan_U> ABBADON: What are you trying to accomplish exactly? Does "qemu -fda /path/to/floppy_image" do what you need?
[00:41] <sebsebseb> tarandus: well Firefox :)  other browsers you can use sometimes as a secondary though,  well thats how I do things :)
[00:41] <sebsebseb> vladikoff: the server you mean the repos?  or the server edition of Ubuntu or what?
[00:41] <vladikoff> sebsebseb, server edition of ubuntu, i had it working for a year
[00:42] <sebsebseb> vladikoff: oh
[00:42] <sebsebseb> vladikoff: well
[00:42] <Gryllida> Can you help me with unix style copy/paste? (select to copy, middle click to paste) It works from one app to another one, pasting into same app works in Firefox and Terminal and Emacs but not OOo 3.2 or gEdit. Ubuntu 10.04. How can I troubleshoot it?
[00:42] <vladikoff> sebsebseb, indeed
[00:42] <sebsebseb> vladikoff: if your not alwasy going to upgrade the server, stay with the LTS, thats recommended
[00:42] <sebsebseb> vladikoff: also  they have a channel
[00:42] <sebsebseb> !server | vladikoff
[00:42] <vladikoff> sebsebseb, 9.10 is an lts
[00:43] <sebsebseb> vladikoff: no it is not
[00:43] <vladikoff> oh snap
[00:43] <sebsebseb> vladikoff: altough it is still supported untill the end of April next year
[00:43] <sebsebseb> vladikoff: when the previous LTS 8.04 will run out of support on the desktop
[00:43] <ABBADON> Jordan_U: Not exactly.  I'm using bochs.  My specific commands that I use are:
[00:43] <ABBADON> sudo losetup /dev/loop0 /path/to/floppy
[00:43] <ABBADON> sudo mount /dev/loop0 /mnt
[00:43] <ABBADON> sudo cp/src/bootable/image /mnt/bootable/image
[00:43] <FloodBot1> ABBADON: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[00:43] <ABBADON> sudo umount /dev/loop0
[00:43] <ABBADON> sudo /sbin/losetup -d /dev/loop0
[00:44] <sebsebseb> vladikoff: then the server version of 8.04 still has another idea,  anyway yeah doing a clean install of 10.04 Server Edition sounds ok
[00:44] <hiexpo> !flood | ABBADON
[00:44] <vladikoff> sebsebseb, yeah i will do that
[00:44] <sebsebseb> vladikoff: another idea?  uh  compelty typed wrong thing there.  another two years support on the server
[00:44] <ABBADON> Whoa, sorry about that.  I'll use pastebin next time.
[00:45] <sebsebseb> vladikoff: and yeah check your ISO before using :)
[00:45] <sebsebseb> !md5sum | vladikoff
[00:45] <sebsebseb> !hashes
[00:45] <vladikoff> :) great thanks
[00:46] <hiexpo> open terminal type md5sums  filename
[00:46] <Jordan_U> ABBADON: My question is *why* are you using bochs, and what is your end goal?
[00:46] <ninjamaster> otherwise your the "starup disc creator" to make an USB Pen bootable with the image.. but always check md5 sum.. :)
[00:46] <sebsebseb> hiexpo: well nearly,    instead vladikoff would open termianl and type md5sum filename
[00:46] <sebsebseb> hiexpo: you put an s after md5sum
[00:47] <hiexpo> oops md5sums filename
[00:47] <sebsebseb> vladikoff: theres also sha1sum and sha256sum these days I would actsaully do all three, but thats not really needed,  altough if you want to be 100% sure your ISO is good, thats a good way to do it
[00:47] <hiexpo> typo
[00:47] <ninjamaster> otherwise look here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM
[00:47] <sebsebseb> vladikoff: also I download the ISO's using HTTP/FTP personally, but if you get the torrent you could  then check in torrent client that it downloaded everything
[00:48] <ABBADON> I'm trying to get into OS development, and I'm using bochs in order to test out the beginning of this kernel tutorial I'm going through.  Also, I'm on a system that's about 10 years old.  Would qemu be better for me to use?
[00:48] <ninjamaster> complete guide of md5sum
[00:48] <sebsebseb> ninjamaster: That link was in the bot factoid!
[00:48] <hiexpo> sebsebseb,  - pm
[00:49] <sebsebseb> hiexpo: ok
[00:49] <ninjamaster> just joined this channel 10 minutes ago
[00:49] <Jordan_U> ABBADON: If you just need to boot a virtual floppy disk then qemu is more standard, and therefore better supported.
[00:49] <sebsebseb> ninjamaster: oh right
[00:49] <ninjamaster> hehe :)
[00:50] <sebsebseb> ninjamaster: well I did use the factoid after  you joined, but since it wasn't directly aimed at you, easy enough to miss
[00:50] <joker_> i need help
[00:50] <sebsebseb> hiexpo: uhmm  I didn't get a pm from you
[00:51] <sebsebseb> !ask | joker_
[00:51] <joker_> i cant get mibbit irc to work in empaty
[00:51] <ABBADON> Jordan_U: Thank you, I'll use qemu then.  So once I get it installed on my system, then "qemu -fda /path/to/floppy_image" should do it?
[00:51] <sebsebseb> joker_: oh right yeah
[00:51] <Jordan_U> ABBADON: Yes.
[00:51] <sebsebseb> joker_: mibbit is a web based IRC
[00:52] <sebsebseb> joker_: and so not a real IRC,  I mean its just a web based one, use in a browser, not in a  IRC client
[00:52] <ABBADON> Jordan_U: Will do, then.
[00:52] <joker_> oh so cause its web based it wont work?
[00:52] <sebsebseb> joker_: I haven't actsaully used mibbit myself maybe once
[00:52] <lilucax> brasil alguem ai fala portugues o link do ubuntu brasikl
[00:52] <sebsebseb> joker_: when you use mibbit you will connect to Freenode to chat here, but you can use a real IRC client program to chat here :)
[00:52] <slidinghorn> !br | lilucax
[00:53] <slidinghorn> lilucax, didn't we have an issue with this before?
[00:53] <___1n0c3nt3____> lilulcax: fala cara
[00:53] <sebsebseb> joker_: Xchat is rather popular with Ubuntu users and so on, but  I am quite the Konversation fan :)  KDE app though, and yes can be run in Gnome,  and yes it will want to put on quite a bit of KDE stuff if don' already have a KDE app installed.  However thats not a problem as long as the partition isn't a really silly size.  Also Linux distros are designed to run loads of apps without a problem,  unlike Windows.

[01:10] <jpds> mikeru: It looks like it's just timing out connecting to the PPA server.
[01:11] <jpds> mikeru: ie, apt can't get there on time because of your line's latency.
[01:11] <mikeru> jpds: so...  I should wait until the network's stable?
[01:12] <jpds> mikeru: It looks like it.

[01:17] <shubbar> i try to install devede, but it says mencoder is missing, but i compiled installed mencoder!
[01:19] <prince_jammys> shubbar: APT doesn't know about your local installation.
[01:19] <shubbar> prince_jammys, then how to tell devede to use my local installation of mencoder?
[01:20] <ActionParsnip> shubbar: you can make a deb using checkinstall
[01:20] <kes0>  /j irssi
[01:20] <ActionParsnip> shubbar: you may want to pin the version too so updats dont overwrite your work
[01:21] <shubbar> ActionParsnip, i did make checkinstall, but i see mplayer installed in synaptic but not mencoder
[01:22] <shubbar> ActionParsnip, pinning the version is done from synaptic, right?
[01:24] <Haxor> good afternoon to all I have a question, I use the ubuntu minimal CD which is on the official site and install it on an acer aspire 5517 laptop but when is detecting wired network does not recognize anything and mark an error, the ethernet card is an Atheros AR8132,
[01:24] <ActionParsnip> shubbar: not sure never done it, but i know it stops apps been updated if you pin them
[01:25] <ActionParsnip> Haxor: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-hardware-18/atheros-ar-8132-on-my-acer-aspire-one-d250-749646/
[01:27] <Haxor> can i load the driver l1c in the boot ?
[01:28] <osmodivs> I am baking some simulation on a 3d prgrAM. but it just stays there, donig nothing, maybe is calculating all those physics. In my system monitor, SWAP marks 90%, if that thinb reaches 100%, what will happen?
[01:29] <underdev> hi.  I have 300meg of memory listed as used in system monitor, but system monitor also reports that i'm using 1.5 GIG of ram (not including cache).  What's going on?
[01:29] <valentinex> How my make my ubuntu faster?
[01:29] <valentinex> I want my ubuntu to fly
[01:30] <squircle> osmodivs: the system will clear out caches in memory and in swap, and if it keeps growing above the available space, it will force the application that's taking all the memory to terminate
[01:30] <underdev> the 300 megs of ram is what i calculated by adding all the memory listed for all the processes.
[01:31] <squircle> underdev: what does "free -m" say?
[01:31] <osmodivs> aW MAN!!
[01:31] <kermit> why does adjusting the screen brightness cause everything to pause even sound?
[01:31] <osmodivs> all this time for nothing!?
[01:31] <squircle> kermit: on what system?
[01:31] <Haxor> how can i load a driver in the ubuntu installation ?
[01:31] <squircle> osmodivs: what program are you using?
[01:31] <kermit> squircle: a latitude
[01:31] <osmodivs> Blender
[01:31] <squircle> Haxor: driver for what?
[01:31] <osmodivs> I have Ubuntu 10.04
[01:32] <squircle> osmodivs: Blender has fairly good memory management; it shouldn't go over. no need to panic.
[01:32] <valentinex> osmodivs: is that launched?
[01:32] <valentinex> how can i check my ubuntu version?
[01:32] <Haxor> squicle: for the ethernet i'm using the minimal CD but the installation dont detect my wired network card
[01:32] <squircle> valentinex: you can type in a terminal "cat /etc/issue.net"
[01:32] <underdev> squircle: -/+ buffers/cache: used 1550
[01:32] <squircle> Haxor: what make & model is the computer and/or the network card?
[01:33] <lee_> im trying to find where programs are store ,, i.e , google gadgets..
[01:33] <Haxor> squircle: acer asprie 5517 and the network is atheros ar8132
[01:33] <osmodivs> LAUNCHED?
[01:33] <raggs> hi all, could i get some help reinstalling grub2 from a liveCD?
[01:33] <osmodivs> do not know the context
[01:33] <underdev> is there some horrible horrible memory leak in 10.04 now?  It had some in the RC.  is it back?
[01:33] <squircle> underdev: it's quite possible that you didn't add the memory of all threads of each process
[01:33] <valentinex> heheh i already have latest "You are using Ubuntu 10.04 LTS
[01:33] <valentinex>                 - the Lucid Lynx - released in April 2010 and supported until April 2013"
[01:33] <squircle> valentinex: there you go :)
[01:34] <squircle> !grubrepair | raggs
[01:34] <underdev> squircle: possibly.  but i'm not running much of anything right now, certainly not 1.5g worth
[01:34] <squircle> Haxor: let me check the compatibility; gimme a minute
[01:34] <minderaser> raggs: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[01:34] <Haxor> squircle: ok
[01:35] <squircle> underdev: linux uses a lot of space for disk caches and stuff; it's using your memory as efficiently as possible
[01:35] <raggs> squircle: i didnt lose it installing windows and i have tried the wiki
[01:35] <squircle> raggs: the process is still the same; did something not work?
[01:36] <raggs> squircle: yes, the last time i tried it something did not work, i dont recall atm what that was
[01:36] <hendrik_>  bmj
[01:36] <underdev> squircle: doesn't look like it.  Cache is reported seperately.
[01:36] <underdev> squircle: looks like a huge memory leak to me
[01:36] <squircle> underdev: "free -m" will give you the most accurate data. if you pastebin the entire output of the command, I'll be able to tell you the truth. and as far as I know the memory leak was fixed
[01:36] <underdev> could be firefox, chromium, or chrome
[01:37] <squircle> underdev: all three are memory hogs. they're browsers after all!
[01:38] <underdev> squircle: but they are closed now.  http://pastebin.com/Hp5yvLS8
[01:38] <squircle> underdev: don't forget that 1329 + 80 of the 2959 used are caches
[01:38] <squircle> underdev: "used" is everything-in (including caches)
[01:39] <underdev> squircle: right. do you see that i'm using 1.5gig not including caches?
[01:39] <osmodivs> What is athread in a CPU?
[01:39] <squircle> Haxor: to confirm, it's wired, not wireless, correct?
[01:40] <squircle> osmodivs: each process (program) can have multiple threads; different calculation streams occurring at once. think of it as multiple roads so that cars can get through faster (pretty poor analogy; try wikipedia for more info)
[01:40] <Haxor> squircle: sure is wired
[01:40] <afallenhope> I have a quick question. If i select the "use largest free space" the 80GB that I freed will be all Linux right? it'll auto-create the partitions including swap?
[01:40] <underdev> squircle: and again, in system monitor, if i add up the memory listed by the processes listed, it's about 300meg.  which seems about right.
[01:41] <osmodivs> Like cache?
[01:41] <osmodivs> ok, i'll see in Wikip
[01:41] <squircle> underdev: you are correct. i'd suggest running "watch free" and seeing how quickly the memory is increasing; report a bug if you think it's a memory leak
[01:41] <underdev> okay, so there is a giant gapping memory leak somewhere.  Thank you squircle
[01:41] <squircle> osmodivs: not quite like cache; see wiki for more info
[01:41] <squircle> underdev: no worries :)
[01:42] <underdev> not, *the* kurzweil?
[01:42] <Frijolie> I'm having difficulty with an external HDD, it has multiple mount points (e.g. hard_drive, hard_drive_, and hard_drive__). How to I remove all of these mount points so I can rely on the one location?
[01:43] <minderaser> I installed Win7, booted back into with Lucid w/ a livecd, updated grub to v2, then did update-grub. Grub is now the loader and will boot into Lucid fine. Win7 is listed, but all I get is a blinking cursor when I select it. What should I be looking at to fix this?
[01:43] <squircle> Haxor: I see that there may be a few wireless issues with that computer, but I don't know about the wired, I'll keep looking but you may want to search the forums
[01:43] <underdev> if so, i saw a lecture of yours at an ACM conference in 1993. it was lifechanging.
[01:43] <underdev> seriously
[01:43] <minderaser> Win7 booted fine before updating grub, btw
[01:43] <Haxor> squircle: the "lshw -C network" command says that im using the driver atl1c but how can i load that driver into the minimal cd ?

[01:46] <squircle> Haxor: I took a look, and I don't think that the minimal cd has that kernel module/driver...
[01:46] <squircle> Haxor: that's pretty much the limit of my expertise, sorry
[01:47] <squircle> khakihacky: no worries!
[01:47] <robertzaccour> nevermind i found out
[01:47] <Usernamed> any suggestions on a good video capture program?
[01:47] <squircle> ekzp: what browser are you using?
[01:47] <ekzp> firefox
[01:47] <ekzp> its not just on browser
[01:47] <squircle> ekzp: have you enabled any accessibility options?
[01:47] <Haxor> squircle: dont worry thanks =) i going to googleit

[01:48] <ekzp> if i knew how to screen shot on this -.-!
[01:48] <Usernamed> thanks
[01:48] <prince_jammys> Usernamed: vlc has some abilities in that department. Elaborate on what you intend to capture and others may have some tips.
[01:48] <squircle> Haxor: it appears that the ath9k driver should support both your wired & wireless cards in that computer. i would try using that when booted into the minimal cd

[01:54] <afallenhope> Hey anyone here know if the automatic partitioner creates a swap file too based on your RAM?
[01:55] <rww> afallenhope: It creates a swap file. I have no idea how it decides how big to make it, though.
[01:55] <squircle> afallenhope: depends; are you starting fresh or installing beside another OS?
[01:55] <squircle> rww: it makes either a swap partition or a swap file
[01:55] <squircle> afallenhope: ^^ (sorry rww)

[02:08] <Doonz_> no
[02:08] <Doonz_> k 1 second
[02:08] <Helper> I have a fresh install of ubuntu 10.04 on VMware Fusion which i'm doing updates to now as we speak…
[02:08] <tonsofpcs> ekzp: x needs to know what type of mouse it is.  is this the mouse that was installed when you installed ubuntu?
[02:09] <Doonz_> 9590SE-16ML <-- controller model
[02:09] <linux_is_my_hero> tarandus: hows your wifi?
[02:09] <tarandus> How is it? It's good. A PC and laptop in the same room is connected to it right now
[02:09] <tarandus> the laptop I installed Ubuntu on also connected to it just fine until I installed the said updates
[02:09] <tonsofpcs> Doonz_: do you see the device in /dev ?
[02:10] <linux_is_my_hero> before you did the updates were you using any "proprietary" hardware drivers?
[02:10] <tarandus> Good question. I wouldn't know because it was a fresh Ubuntu install and everything worked fine without me installing any drivers?
[02:11] <Doonz_> Ok Jordan_U i just tried mounting it into a different directory and it says the drive or directory is busy
[02:11] <Doonz_> tonsofpcs: yes
[02:12] <tonsofpcs> Doonz_: are you trying as root?
[02:12] <ruari> Doonz maybe use fuser -k on the old mount
[02:12] <Doonz_> yes
[02:12] <Doonz_> ok ill try that
[02:12] <Doonz_> ruari: didnt work
[02:13] <Doonz_> heres the fdsik output
[02:13] <ruari> same error?
[02:13] <linux_is_my_hero> tarandus: when you first install ubuntu, it acts different than it does when you reboot without the livecd (or livedvd).  So you may have been running the drivers without even knowing it.
[02:13] <Doonz_> yeah
[02:13] <Doonz_> http://pastebin.com/8p8rA6fh <-- error
[02:13] <linux_is_my_hero> is the problem computer near you right now?
[02:13] <ruari> what was the syntax you used
[02:13] <linux_is_my_hero> *tarandus: if you can be near the problem computer i have something you may wanna try
[02:13] <tarandus> Linux_is_my_hero: I considered that, but I was running it without the livecd just fine, too! But I think that still might be the problem regardless. Yes, the computer is right next to me
[02:13] <Doonz_> sudo fuser -k /home/user/raidsets/array1
[02:14] <Doonz_> and when i did that i seemed to work
[02:14] <Doonz_> until i when a tried to mount -a
[02:14] <Doonz_> then it gave me the busy error
[02:14] <ruari> i am a little late to the conversation have umount the old mount after fuer -k
[02:14] <ruari> fuser -k
[02:14] <linux_is_my_hero> tarandus: system-->administration-->hardware drivers
[02:15] <GrazzMan> Any sugestions for a good FTP Server with Gui??
[02:15] <Jordan_U> Doonz_: Can you pastebin the contents of /proc/mounts ?
[02:15] <Doonz_> oh ok here is the pastebin of my fdisk http://pastebin.com/ZxXFDHh8
[02:15] <tarandus> linux_is_my_hero: i am there
[02:15] <ClevelandRock> I'm not getting any audio in games. All other audio works; just not in games. Can anyone help me fix this?
[02:16] <Doonz_> ruari: it says not mounted
[02:16] <tarandus> linux_is_my_hero: It searched for drivers, and now a screen is up that states "No proprietary drivers are in use on this system."
[02:16] <Doonz_> but when i try to run mount -a it says it is
[02:16] <Doonz_> Jordan_U: one second
[02:16] <Doonz_> Jordan_U: how do i get that info
[02:16] <Jordan_U> Doonz_: cat /proc/mounts
[02:17] <ruari> what does mtab show?
[02:17] <linux_is_my_hero> tarandus: find another way to the internet, like ethernet or a sprint or verizon wireless access card
[02:17] <Doonz_> Jordan_U: http://pastebin.com/0a0asJ5f
[02:17] <Doonz_> ruari one sec
[02:17] <Jordan_U> Doonz_: Ahh, the problem may have something to do with the fact that you have an msdos and gpt label, when normally with gpt your msdos label should only contain a single protective partition.
[02:18] <linux_is_my_hero> i used my buddy's sprint 3g card to grab another ubuntu update then i came back to hardware drivers and mine were magically there. both my ati video card, and my wifi card also.
[02:18] <Doonz_> its been working fine for over a year
[02:18] <Doonz_> with reboots and everything
[02:18] <tarandus> linux_is_my_hero: ah, this sounds troublesome...
[02:18] <Jordan_U> Doonz_: What is the output of "readlink /dev/disk/by-uuid/d4aec111-f1b8-4cc2-a0c3-cd978d762dd5"?
[02:18] <Doonz_> ruari: command not found
[02:19] <ruari> cat /etc/mtab i think
[02:19] <Doonz_> Jordan_U: ../../sda1
[02:19] <Doonz_> ruari: samething as mount did
[02:19] <ruari> not showing there correct?
[02:19] <Doonz_> nope
[02:19] <linux_is_my_hero> tarandus: ive been thorugh the exact same thing...it sucks i bet u dont have a ethernet cable or a wireless access card.
[02:19] <Doonz_> wich is why im confused
[02:20] <linux_is_my_hero> tarandus: when it happened i had to run to best buy and get an ethernet cable...
[02:20] <tarandus> linux_is_my_hero: I do ;) will try your suggestion.
[02:20] <Jordan_U> Doonz_: Never mind what I said about GPT, I was just confused since /dev/sda uses an msdos label while /dev/sdb and /dev/sdc use gpt (and have a proper protective partition)
[02:20] <linux_is_my_hero> anyone whos listening, if youre considering a verizon or sprint 3g wireless access card, totally get one.  im sitting in my car, waiting to watch the fireworks, and i was bored so im in here :-)
[02:21] <Doonz_> Jordan_U: ok did you see the reply about the read link output
[02:21] <Jordan_U> Doonz_: Yes.
[02:21] <minderaser> I've been having trouble getting Win7 and Lucid to play nicely together (dual boot). After getting Win7 installed and running correctly I booted a livecd, updated grub2 and Lucid is booting once again. Win7 shows in the grub menu but will not boot, all I get is a blinking cursor.
[02:21] <Doonz_> *confused*
[02:21] <ruari> does it show in proc?  sudo cat/proc/scsi/scsi  as a attached device?
[02:22] <Doonz_> ruari: it list under /dev/sdb and /dev/sdc
[02:22] <tarandus> Alright, I have the ethernet wire plugged in and nothing's happening............
[02:22] <Doonz_> ruari: command not found
[02:22] <Jordan_U> minderaser: You probably accidentally installed grub to your windows partition. Can you pastebin the output of "debconf show grub-pc"?
[02:23] <Doonz_> *sigh* any ideas?
[02:23] <linux_is_my_hero> tarandus: if you have anything already running ethernet, just use that cable temporarily so the situation doesnt get more complicated.
[02:23] <afallenhope> !dualboot
[02:24] <linux_is_my_hero> tarandus: if not then u may have a bad etehrnet cable, or ethernet card, or wired switch may be malfunctioning
[02:24] <quentin> hi. I need help getting a second hard drive to mount at boot. It already has info on it so I don't want to format the disk.
[02:24] <Voldenet> quentin, fstab
[02:24] <Voldenet> !fstab
[02:24] <tarandus> it was the wire
[02:25] <tarandus> linux_is_my_hero: how to get updates?
[02:25] <linux_is_my_hero> tarandus: gotta get my laundry, be back in like 5.  id like to help you, so please be patient. :-)
[02:25] <tarandus> linux_is_my_hero: that's fine. Thank you. let me know when you return
[02:26] <quentin> Voldenet: I'm trying to edit fstab right now. Thing is I can't remember how to get it to recognize the name of the disk. Like /dev/sdb.
[02:26] <tarandus> I installed Google Chrome. How do I run it now? It's nowhere to be seen!
[02:26]  * Doonz_ bangs head on wall
[02:26] <minderaser> Jordan_U: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/51GvVbpa
[02:26] <Voldenet> quentin, 1st disk: sda, 2nd: sdb, 3rd: sdc
[02:26] <Voldenet> etc.
[02:26] <Haxor> tarandus: use the google-chrome command
[02:26] <minderaser> Jordan_U: I don't think that will be very helpful though
[02:27] <Voldenet> Use cfdisk to check partitions on particular disks
[02:27] <Voldenet> it's easy tool
[02:27] <Jordan_U> midoatata: Sorry, "sudo debconf-show grub-pc".
[02:29] <minderaser> Jordan_U: updated http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/sgDpKgs1
[02:30] <Jordan_U> minderaser: Ok, this guide should get windows booting again: http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/bootinfoscript/index.php?title=Boot_Problems:Boot_Sector
[02:31] <minderaser> Jordan_U: I'll check it out. I wasn't having much luck googling my problem. Thanks
[02:31] <tarandus> Haxor: What does that mean exactly? The Google Chrome command?
[02:31] <Jordan_U> minderaser: Be sure when you're installing grub that you *never* install to a partition.
[02:31] <Jordan_U> minderaser: You're welcome.
[02:32] <Haxor> tarandus: open a terminal an put "google-chrome"
[02:32] <Doonz_> *sigh* anyone
[02:32] <minderaser> Jordan_U: The 3rd line of the paste looks to me like it's install to the drive, not a partition of it. Is that what you were looking for?
[02:32] <Helper> Best to run Ubuntu as a Virtual Machine :)
[02:33] <bperry> hi, can I add an opensuse build repo that does ubuntu builds to apt?
[02:33] <bperry> trying to add the openvas opensuse build service
[02:33] <tarandus> Haxor: What's a terminal? Ha!
[02:34] <Jordan_U> minderaser: Yes, I was making sure that the grub-pc package wasn't set to install to a partition. Most of the times people come in with these symptoms it's because they were asked during an upgrade of the grub-pc package which devices to install to...
[02:34] <Haxor> tarandus: the easy way xD use the keys "alt + f2" and put "google-chrome"
[02:35] <tarandus> it says could not open location
[02:35] <Doonz_> Jordan_U: http://pastebin.com/mjr1iLs3
[02:35] <Doonz_> ruari: http://pastebin.com/mjr1iLs3
[02:35] <Jordan_U> minderaser: Since what they choose for that setting will be used to install grub on any later upgrades of the packages I was making sure that that setting was correct before restoring the partition boot record (as people also sometimes leave if I tell them how to fix the boot record without letting me tell them how to prevent it from getting overwritten again:)
[02:35] <rosco_y> Can anyone recommend a good media player to install, so I can watch the videos I take with my camera?
[02:36] <meatbun> anyone got netbook with Intel GMA 3150 Graphics? how is performance for youtube?
[02:36] <Haxor> rosco_y: use vlc its a good media player
[02:36] <Jordan_U> Doonz_: Ok, fsck is running for some reason. Do *not* kill it.
[02:37] <rosco_y> Haxor: :) Great!  thanks
[02:37] <im_here> I Noticed in the update for brasero: "    - Lot's of memleak fixes"
[02:37] <Doonz_> because its running thats why i cant mount it?
[02:37] <Haxor> rosco_y: =)
[02:37] <squircle> meatbun: 99% of the time it's not the graphics, it's flash & the processor
[02:37] <im_here> "Lot's" is a typo? or a computer term?
[02:37] <Doonz_> Jordan_U: because its running thats why i cant mount it?
[02:37] <ruari> would make sense
[02:37] <Jordan_U> Doonz_: Yes.
[02:37] <Doonz_> phew
[02:38] <Doonz_> *wipes brow*
[02:38] <Doonz_> is that like checkdisk?
[02:38] <ruari> jnice job Jordan_U!
[02:38] <meatbun> squircle: i mean Intel GMA 3150 Graphics CARD
[02:38] <Jordan_U> Doonz_: Yes.
[02:38] <meatbun> paste cut off
[02:38] <Jordan_U> Doonz_: And with the size of your arrays it's going to take a while.
[02:38] <Doonz_> ok
[02:39] <Doonz_> thanx
[02:39] <Doonz_> is there a way i can tail its progress
[02:39] <squircle> meatbun: I know; what I'm trying to tell you is that it's rarely the graphics card that will determine flash's performance on websites like Youtube. usually the bottleneck is the CPU.
[02:40] <meatbun> squircle: ahm..... ion2 is gonna come out soon. and adobe has yet to release new optimized flash
[02:40] <Doonz> Jordan_U: can i just kill that process and rerun it when i get things mounted?
[02:41] <Voldenet> well, bottleneck is flash there, using totem to play yt movies is good choice
[02:41] <Jordan_U> Doonz: Progress info is being sent to file descriptor 10, which isn't incredibly helpfull except that it means that there is a front end trying to comunicate the infor to you somehow (maybe a dialog on the physical screen)
[02:41] <LLLLL> not to make another debate but would you say Ubuntu is more user friendly than windows xp?
[02:41] <meatbun> squircle: they the time adobe comes out with new flash, netbooks dont need it anymore with new ion2
[02:41] <LLLLL> I mean
[02:41] <airtonix> !troll > LLLLL
[02:41] <Voldenet> LLLLL, it is?
[02:41] <LLLLL> Windows in general
[02:41] <meatbun> Voldenet: you mean cache video first
[02:42] <wckdkl0wn> I am trying to establish a vpn connection with a friends computer. Running 9.10 right now. I know all the settings are right because I had set it up on a windows machine and connected just fine. I try to connect on ubuntu and i get vpn connection fail. Vpn could not start
[02:42] <Jordan_U> Doonz: I wouldn't kill fsck, and you can't run fsck on a mounted filesystem anyway.
[02:42] <LLLLL> not to make another debate but would you say Ubuntu is more user friendly than windows xp?
[02:42] <LLLLL> like I said
[02:42] <LLLLL> not to make a debate
[02:42] <Voldenet> meatbun, i mean using combo: "greasemonkey + firefox + youtube"
[02:42] <airtonix> LLLLL, you were told.
[02:42] <airtonix> !troll | LLLLL
[02:43] <meatbun> Voldenet: oh... lol greasemonkey.... funny name
[02:43] <Voldenet> meatbun, it is
[02:43] <xangua> LLLLL: please just keep on the topíc, this is a SUPPORT ONLY channel, you can go to #ubuntu-offtopic and talk there
[02:43] <Jordan_U> Doonz: I'm trying to figure out how to access the progress info right now.
[02:43] <meatbun> sounds like a cars mechanics, Voldenet
[02:44] <Voldenet> It may sounds like, but it is serious tool to edit sites "on the fly"
[02:44] <Voldenet> it includes replacing yt's flash objects with totem plugins
[02:44] <Jordan_U> Doonz: Can you pastebin the output of "pstree -p"?
[02:44] <im_here> You can't "edit" sites, it changes in your browser
[02:45] <airtonix> Voldenet, obviously it will only work with FLV streams.
[02:45] <meatbun> Hundreds of scripts are already available for free.  <--- which script ? Voldenet
[02:45] <minderaser> Jordan_U: I just pastebin'd the output of boot info http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/pqwgvkdj Can you take a look?
[02:45] <Voldenet> I used to use it half year ago, forgot its name, sorry.
[02:46] <Doonz> Jordan_U: i can see i in htop so no worries
[02:46] <Voldenet> http://userscripts.org/scripts/search?q=youtube+totem
[02:46] <Jordan_U> Doonz: The progress of fsck?
[02:47] <s414414> 我是台灣人！
[02:47] <Doonz> fsk
[02:47] <Doonz> its kool ill let it run im not home for a few days anyhow
[02:47] <meatbun> s414414: wtf
[02:47] <s414414> ？
[02:47] <squircle> !cn | s414414
[02:47] <Doonz> huh
[02:47] <s414414> 我去過了都沒人
[02:48] <Gryllida> !jp
[02:48] <minderaser> Jordan_U: That doesn't look to me like grub got installed on the windows partition
[02:48] <linux_is_my_hero> tarandus: you there?
[02:48] <Jordan_U> minderaser: No, it doesn't.
[02:48] <meatbun> s414414: ┌∩┐(◕ ◡ ◕)┌∩┐
[02:48] <squircle> Gryllida: my knowledge of foreign characters is basically nonexistant; thanks :)
[02:49] <Voldenet> well...
[02:49] <Voldenet> he said that he was on chinese chan
[02:49] <Voldenet> and no1 was there
[02:49] <meatbun> うるさい！！！
[02:49] <Haxor> one question. i can use the "modprobe" command in all distros ? and use a .ko module ?
[02:49] <Jordan_U> meatbun: Please don't
[02:49] <tarandus> linux_is_my_hero:  yes
[02:49] <Voldenet> that was not japanese
[02:50] <Jordan_U> !language | meatbun
[02:50] <meatbun> that's not even a bad word
[02:50] <linux_is_my_hero> any luck getting to the internet with ethernet?
[02:51] <tarandus> yes, I'm connected to the internet
[02:51] <tarandus> But it says that there are no updates available/I'm up-to-date
[02:51] <tonsofpcs> hmmm, i see a bunch of "CailReadATIRegister" lines (and some Write lines) but the very last line in gdm/\:0.log is "FreeFontPath: FPE \"/usr/share/fonts/X11/misc\" refcount is 2, should be 1; fixing." .... i wonder where that is or how to fix it
[02:51] <linux_is_my_hero> alright, restart and try it again
[02:51] <linux_is_my_hero> tarandus: restart and try again
[02:52] <Jordan_U> meatbun: Flipping someone off is not apropriate for this channel, especially not in response to someone innocently posting in Chinese.
[02:52] <minderaser> Jordan_U: I just updated pastebin with a little more info from grub.cfg
[02:52] <minderaser> http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/yzSSdnL8
[02:52] <Jordan_U> minderaser: Could you just post the complete RESULTS.txt?
[02:52] <tarandus> alright
[02:53] <zulgaban72> hi
[02:53] <tarandus> Ubuntu is running significantly slower than XP Pro was running... I wonder if there's something wrong
[02:54] <Gryllida> of course there is
[02:54] <Gryllida> ubuntu is normally 3 or 5 times faster
[02:54] <Gryllida> are you running it from live cd?
[02:54] <tarandus> nope
[02:54] <minderaser> Jordan_U: done. http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/2uuTAtz4
[02:54] <Gryllida> what are your specs?
[02:54] <tarandus> how do I stop keyring from starting up after every boot?
[02:55] <tarandus> I threw Ubuntu on a dusty machine: ibm thinkpad w/ pentium 3 @ 1ghz w/ 1gb of ram
[02:56] <tarandus> linux_is_my_hero: my wireless internet seems to be working now. What!
[02:56] <geekyogi> Hi.. I wanna execute a file on GUI (TTY 7) from a SSH login (PST) any idea?
[02:57] <linux_is_my_hero> tarandus: perfect im fixing to drive somewhere glad it worked though :-)
[02:57] <linux_is_my_hero> nite
[02:57] <tarandus> thanks.
[02:57] <Jordan_U> minderaser: Was windows booting properly before you installed Ubuntu? Did you resize the Windows partition when installing Ubuntu, or did you keep the free space for Ubuntu when you were installing windows?
[02:58] <xortham314> salve
[02:58] <tarandus> Alright, anyone: I installed Google Chrome. Now how do I open it up?
[02:58] <tarandus> It's nowhere to be found...
[02:59] <geekyogi> is it possible to execute a file on a different shell than the one we are logged in???
[03:00] <randerzander> I have a computer across the country.. I can ssh into it, and would like to remote desktop to it, but I have not checked the "Allow other users to view/control your desktop".. how can I set these options from the terminal?
[03:02] <minderaser> Jordan_U: Originally I had XP and Lucid working together correctly. I installed Win7 into some used space on the drive and deleted the partition XP was on. Win7 would boot ok after its install. When I updated grub with a live cd (went to grub2 as well) I can no longer boot Win7
[03:03] <xangua> tarandus: it should be in apps>internet ; why not chromium¿¿ is open source ;)
[03:03] <thune3> geekyogi: i haven't done it in ages but you should be able to set DISPLAY environment variable and program will launch in gui
[03:03] <tarandus> xangua: I don't know how to install Chromium
[03:04] <xangua> tarandus: you open the software center, search it and install it
[03:04] <Gryllida> tarandus: applications > internet > google chrome ?
[03:04] <Jordan_U> minderaser: Was windows 7 booting after you removed the XP partition?
[03:04] <minderaser> Jordan_U: yes
[03:04] <tarandus> Gyllinda: That does work. I didn't install it properly earlier, it was my mistake. Thank you
[03:05] <Jordan_U> minderaser: Odd, try asking in #grub.
[03:06] <minderaser> Jordan_U: will do. thanks
[03:06] <Jordan_U> minderaser: And sorry about the red herring at the start, I should have asked you to confirm that was the problem with boot info script first.
[03:06] <minderaser> Jordan_U: No worries. Glad for the help!
[03:12] <tarandus> How do I get rid of the overly obnoxious keyring?!?!
[03:12] <Gryllida> Where?
[03:13] <tarandus> It popped up when I typed in my network key, when I'm trying to log into my broadcoast accounts... I don't want to use it.
[03:13] <minderaser> Jordan_U: damn, you're everywhere
[03:13] <ross_> yes, i have the same problem, how do you get rid of the key ring
[03:14] <randerzander> Anyone know how to enable Remote Desktop access from the command line?
[03:14] <thurloat> does anyone know how to get networking 'enabled' when booting? recently my laptop has decided that when I boot up networking is disabled, starting to get annoying :)
[03:14] <Voldenet> minderaser,i hope he's not in my fridge...
[03:15] <Jordan_U> minderaser: :)
[03:15] <Stupendoussteve> thurloat: Networkmanager doesn't make a connection until after your user has logged in, if that's what you're talking about
[03:15] <Augustuen> anyone tried Opera for Linux?
[03:15] <xangua> !anyone | Augustuen
[03:15] <Voldenet> i tried
[03:16] <Augustuen> what did that meaN?
[03:16] <Lord_Devi> Quick iptables question. What is the iptables command I would use to forward requests arriving on my local machines eth1 interface for port 8080, to my lo (loopback, 127.0.0.1) interface port 8080? (no I am not mad. ;) I know it's strange... )
[03:16] <Gryllida> Augustuen: means if you have Opera issues, then ask straight away
[03:16] <Voldenet> Dont ask a question like "anyone did ...." when there are 1300 ppl on chanel
[03:16] <Augustuen> ok
[03:17] <Gryllida> Augustuen: me personally never tried Opera, Firefox for the win. :D
[03:17] <ross_> how do you get rid of the keyring thing
[03:17] <ross_> anyone?
[03:17] <squircle> !patience | ross_
[03:17] <Augustuen> I only use firefox on Ubuntu, don't like it on any other platform
[03:18] <ross_> well i figure that they might not have heard me so I asked again
[03:18] <thurloat> Stupendoussteve: i mean, after I log in, i recently have had to right click the wireless icon in the bar and check "enable networking"
[03:18] <ubutom_> ross_, activate the tick in network manager that reads enable connection for all users ans just click the keyring away
[03:20] <ross_> ubutom_ where is the network manager located
[03:20] <mikeds> Can I run AMAROK on Ubuntu Netbook Remix and Mint - or is it strictly for KDE?
[03:20] <Stupendoussteve> mikeds: you can run it, the kde libs will also be installed
[03:20] <Voldenet> system>administration menu
[03:21] <mikeds> ok i see it is downloadig kde related things now - does that cause an issue
[03:21] <ubutom_> ross_, system->settings->network connections or click on the icon in tasklist and configure
[03:21] <Stupendoussteve> mikeds: Not at all
[03:21] <Gryllida> Ok, so what can you suggest me to make unix style copy / paste work, it works only in some applications but not in others.
[03:21] <mikeds> ok  - sounds good - anything else to consider or is amarok the best?
[03:21] <Gryllida> (select to copy, middle click to paste)
[03:21] <Stupendoussteve> mikeds: Some menus, like the open/save menu may look different than you're used to, but that's it
[03:21] <Voldenet> MikeChelen, well...
[03:21] <Augustuen> how do I get the default mac4lin theme back?
[03:21] <Voldenet> there are 1000 players available
[03:21] <Stupendoussteve> mikeds: Rhythmbox is good too, but I also prefer Amarok even though I shun KDE otherwise
[03:22] <mikeds> I have had some isues with Rythm (newbie) but I head good things about rokso I thought I w9ld try it
[03:23] <mikeds> STUSTEVE: what is it about KDE that a lot of people seem put off?  Is it just that it looks like Windows sort of?
[03:23] <ross_> ubutom_ : i don't see the tick that you mentioned
[03:23] <Guest30577> hello, anyone who uses kupfer can please tell me how to make it index deeper levels of a directory ?
[03:23] <Voldenet> mikeds, kde is unuseful
[03:23] <Voldenet> it is slow
[03:23] <Voldenet> it got few nice features
[03:23] <mikeds> so heavier interface
[03:24] <ubutom_> ross_, select the connection, hit edit and a window will pop up, on the bottom there is the checkbox you have to enable, did that with my wireless and keyring never bothered me after
[03:24] <Canadian> i am on ubuntu for the first ime.
[03:24] <Canadian> i am exciteed. my grandson conectedthis
[03:24] <Stupendoussteve> Canadian: Welcome :) Congratulations
[03:24] <mikeds> I think the interface looks more polished, if you call a windows looking interface polished.  But I am running Mint and Netbook Remix so far.  I have not loaded a KDE distro yet.
[03:24] <ross_> ubutom_ : oh i see - available for all users
[03:24] <rww> mikeds: it's personal preference, but some people seem to think their opinion is fact. Try it and see whether it works for you :)
[03:25] <ubutom_> ross_, exactly
[03:25] <tarandus> Does anyone have any suggestion as to why my fresh installation of Ubuntu is running significantly slower than my previous OS (XP Pro)?
[03:25] <tarandus> It's bad!
[03:25] <mikeds> Slower in what aspect, can you give more detail
[03:25] <ubutom_> tarandus, windows XP Pro is old compared to the newest linux, linux also takes up ressources
[03:26] <ross_> ubutom_ : got it - thank
[03:26] <tarandus> Everything takes more time - boot time is longer, load times (when opening a web browser), going to 'places'
[03:26] <Stupendoussteve> mikeds: KDE looks nice, I agree. It has/had some bugs that kept me away. Some of the new design decisions they have made just confuse me, I am used to a more straightforward desktop (Gnome, XFce, or Windows)
[03:26] <ubutom_> ross_, your welcome
[03:26] <Gryllida> tarandus: 10.04 version?
[03:26] <tarandus> ubutom_: That would make sense, but I wouldn't expect *that* big of a difference.
[03:26] <tarandus> Gryllida: Yes.
[03:26] <ross_> i love ubuntu and the people who help people who wants to learn ubuntu
[03:26] <mikeds> ubutom - doesnt linux cache available memory while not actually using it ...making it appear its using it up when its actually a good thing?
[03:26] <Stupendoussteve> mikeds: There is no reason you cannot install both KDE and Gnome, you can choose between them when you log in
[03:27] <tarandus> Seriously, I would have dropped Ubuntu already if it wasn't for the community in this channel
[03:27] <Compiling> :)
[03:27] <Stupendoussteve> tarandus: Are you using an older computer? You might consider xubuntu
[03:27] <mikeds> TARA:  What hardware, what issues?
[03:27] <tarandus> Stupendoussteve: To test out Linux, yeah, I'm using a dusty machine
[03:27] <Gryllida> tarandus: Hmmmm. Weird. Do you have something monstrous with your software, such as a ancient video, something of this kind? What do you see in System > Administration > System Monitor > processes tab, what is taking most CPU?
[03:28] <rigel> what the heck is gvfsd and why is it eating up all my ram
[03:28] <Gryllida> tarandus: s/software/hardware
[03:28] <Stupendoussteve> tarandus: Ah, in that case I would definitely try xubuntu. Modern Ubuntu expects a modern machine
[03:28] <mikeds> I am running Netbook Remix on older crappy Celeron laptop and its great - also running Xbuntu on older Celeron desktop and its nice
[03:28] <Idpmon> ATTENTION! grats out to the (G)(N)|A/A|
[03:28] <ubutom_> tarandus, well, that'S a bad idea with a new distribution, it's like installing win7 on the dusty one, won't run good either ;)
[03:28] <Stupendoussteve> !requirements | tarandus
[03:29] <Stupendoussteve> If you're curious you can see the recommended requirements
[03:29] <mikeds> Exactly:  Linux can work well on older hardware, but I would think Ubuntu is the Win 7 of the Linux world as far as weight
[03:29] <rigel> what the heck is gvfsd and why is it eating up all my ram? and furthermore is it safe to kill it?
[03:29] <gryllida> !gvfsd
[03:29] <mikeds> TARA" Ram and Processor and hard drive speed please
[03:29] <gryllida> !info gvfsd
[03:29] <tarandus> Stupendoussteve: I meet the minimum requirements
[03:29] <gryllida> oh
[03:29] <gryllida> hmm.
[03:29] <FloodBot1> gryllida: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[03:30] <gryllida> I'm not.
[03:30] <kbrosnan> gnome virtual filesystem daemon
[03:30] <Compiling> gvfsd is GNOME's virtual fs
[03:30] <Compiling> ^^
[03:30] <gryllida> "virtual"?
[03:30] <Stupendoussteve> tarandus: And as you mentioned, it works but just slowly? If you _just_ meet the minimums you still might enjoy a lighter version
[03:30] <tarandus> Gryllida: I'm not sure what's using up the CPU? The Gwibber service is using 10mb of memory in the Processes tab, that shouldn't be a problem at all though
[03:30] <prash> rigel, try a reboot and see if it helps.  In usually doesn't take up that much memory.
[03:30] <puff> Anybody here use ubuntu with a palm visor?
[03:30] <Compiling> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GVFS
[03:31] <tarandus> Stupendoussteve: That is correct. I'll try to throw Xubuntu on there. Any other distributions worth checking out?
[03:31] <evon> is there an ubuntu program that will test computer hardwarre for errors?
[03:31] <gryllida>  tarandus: what Gwibber service? Are you on Gnome? It is at System > Administration > Sysytem Monitor > Processes tab
[03:31] <gryllida> tarandus: DSL
[03:31] <kbrosnan> evon: depends on the hardware
[03:31] <tarandus> I'm only worried that other distributions won't look as clean and nice as Ubuntu
[03:31] <Compiling> tarandus: damn small linux, feather linux
[03:32] <gryllida> tarandus: http://www.damnsmalllinux.org but you would possibly struggle to make all of your hardware work.
[03:32] <xangua> tarandus: do you have compiz on¿¿ better shut it down, there is no much diference between ubuntu a d xubuntu; i would recomend lubuntu for low resources
[03:32] <rigel> prash: that's a windows troubleshooting technique
[03:32] <rigel> i would prefer not to
[03:32] <rigel> is it safe to kill gvfsd?
[03:32] <ross_> what is the command for checking ram usage
[03:32] <Stupendoussteve> lubuntu is not official
[03:32] <evon> kbrosnan, i want to test my nvidia video card
[03:32] <ross_> df -r?
[03:32] <rigel> will it respawn i mean
[03:32] <prash> rigel, if thats what you feel, just restart your gnome session
[03:32] <gryllida> rigel: don't think it safe
[03:33] <Compiling> free
[03:33] <Compiling> ross_: free
[03:33] <tarandus> After all this trouble of installing Ubuntu, gonna try to get on xubuntu...
[03:33]  * tarandus shakes his head
[03:33] <prash> rigel, from a virtual terminal "sudo service gdm restart"
[03:33] <ross_> Compiling: is that a break down command?
[03:33] <Compiling> rigel: it handles automounts of various resources, i wouldnt disable it
[03:33] <ross_> Compiling: to show what program is using how much and such?
[03:34] <puff> I'm trying to help my cousin recover her palm visor contacts.  Her physical jack is fubared (4-year-old being "helpful" :-).
[03:34] <Compiling> rigel: usb sticks would not automount among many other issues
[03:34] <puff> Her visor has IRDA, and I have a thinkpad t43p which supposedly has IRDA.  I'm running ubuntu on the thinkpad.  I'm hoping I can sync to my thinkpad and recover her contacts.
[03:34] <gryllida> tarandus: maybe I missed it, what do you see in system monitor
[03:34] <Compiling> ross_: if you want breakdown by program you can use top, its like task manager
[03:34] <Stupendoussteve> tarandus: It's one of the more full-featured Ubuntu versions. A little more lightweight, I have run xfce on a 100mhz machine with 32gb ram
[03:34] <Compiling> ross_: if you want a GUI, use gnome system monitor
[03:34] <Stupendoussteve> er, mb ram :)
[03:34] <rigel> prash: that worked, thanks.
[03:35] <ross_> Compiling: where is top
[03:35] <prash> rigel, you're welcome.
[03:35] <Stupendoussteve> tarandus: That is to say, full-features lightweight distros. You'll likely find other ones are a bit foreign to use
[03:35] <ross_> nevermind lol
[03:35] <tarandus> yeah
[03:35] <Compiling> ross_: If you want to see which are the top 10 memory hogs for example: ps -eo pmem,pid,command | sort -r -k1 | less
[03:35] <Compiling> ross_: top is a CLI program
[03:35] <tarandus> Gryllida: What am I looking for in the monitor?
[03:37] <gryllida>  tarandus: the processes tab
[03:37] <gryllida>  tarandus: do you see it?
[03:37] <tarandus> yes
[03:37] <ross_> the computer froze on my other computer, what can I do to get a response?
[03:37] <tarandus> And in the processes tab..
[03:37] <danielleek> hi
[03:37] <danielleek> Hello?
[03:37] <thune3> evon: it's hard to think of something other than running some benchmarks/programs and looking at output. Is there a specific problem you are having?
[03:38] <samantha> dggg
[03:38] <tarandus> Gryllinda: What am I looking for in the processes tab? It looks like everything is sleeping or using up less than 10mb of memory
[03:39] <gryllida> tarandus: sort the processes by CPU
[03:39] <danielleek> !helpbot
[03:39] <evon> thune3, will i've been getting artifacts on the screen and lately my computer has been quite slow in linuc but running fine in windows. up to recently I've been able to run compiz with no issues but now I have to run the computer with no effects at all.
[03:39] <minderaser> I've been having trouble getting Win7 and Lucid to play nicely together (dual boot). After getting Win7 installed and running correctly I booted a livecd, updated grub2 and Lucid is booting once again. Win7 shows in the grub menu but will not boot, all I get is a blinking cursor.
[03:39] <tarandus> Gryllida: Done. Everything is at 0 except the system monitor itself at 18%
[03:39] <gryllida> tarandus: if I got it right, you came here with the question why ubuntu is slower than winxp pro, if I fetched the nick right, so sorting them by cpu and dealing with top ones should solve the issue
[03:40] <mikeds> Exactly:  Linux can work well on older hardware, but I would think Ubuntu is the Win 7 of the Linux world as far as weightTarandus: you could try Netbook Remix - I dont know if its lighter that Xbuntu, but it runs ok for me on a Celeron 1.4 with 512 ram
[03:40] <gryllida> tarandus: ok, what are the being slow symptoms then?
[03:40] <mikeds> Tarandus: you could try Netbook Remix - I dont know if its lighter that Xbuntu, but it runs ok for me on a Celeron 1.4 with 512 ram
[03:40] <danielleek> :s
[03:40] <randerzander> How can I mount all partitions on a server's hard drive? My box is running 10.04 and I have SSH access but need to mount its Win7 partition to grab a file off of it.
[03:40] <danielleek> randerzander: Mount /dev/drivepartition /mountlocation
[03:40] <Compiling> randerzander: are they all in fstab? you could do mount -a
[03:41] <thefatloverboy> hola
[03:41] <mikeds> Tarandus: if screen scrolling is low on web pages you may need to find a better video driver.
[03:41] <tarandus> Gryllinda: The boot time is viciously long, and so are load/startup times for applications (like the web browser), going to different 'places' (explorer), and more
[03:41] <thefatloverboy> hi
[03:41] <tarandus> I will try Xubuntu and report back in a few minutes. It sounds promising
[03:41] <thefatloverboy> xubuntu is the best
[03:41] <mikeds> Tarandus: that sounds like maybe a slow rpm hard drive
[03:41] <Daniel> test
[03:42] <thefatloverboy> dominican
[03:43] <Daniel> testing
[03:43] <tarandus> mikeds: That sounds like it could be the problem, but just earlier today i was on XP Pro and it wasn't this laggy
[03:43] <xangua> Daniel: yes we can see you, do you have an ubuntu related question¿
[03:43] <randerzander> Compiling: Where will the newly mounted drives show up?
[03:43] <tarandus> mikeds: with more 'crap' installed before formatting for ubuntu
[03:43] <Compiling> run a df
[03:43] <Compiling> see which drives are mounted where
[03:44] <humberto> español
[03:45] <Compiling> Tarandus: try lubuntu: http://lubuntu.net/about
[03:45] <humberto> hola
[03:45] <mikeds> Well - 5200 rpm and better should be decent performance - but older than that could make loads slow I would guess
[03:45] <Compiling> Tarandus: it uses LXDE and is lighter than Xubuntu AFAIK
[03:46] <humberto> como estas
[03:46] <mikeds> I think L Buntu is even lighter than X Buntu
[03:46] <Compiling> it is
[03:46] <tarandus> sounds like it
[03:46] <Stupendoussteve> It is not an official release
[03:46] <xangua> humberto: looking for ubuntu support¿
[03:46] <Ex-Opesa> I used used ubuntu on 5200 rpm, 10 gb, it was fine, only a minor change in performance.
[03:46] <mikeds> I have Xbuntu on a Celeron 1.6 512 ram and its decent, usable.
[03:46] <Stupendoussteve> therefore you would not come here for support, just like mint
[03:47] <Compiling> it has the ubuntu 10.04 core
[03:47] <humberto> hola
[03:47] <Compiling> any questions here would be applicable
[03:47] <randerzander> danielleek: I have sda, sda1, sda2, sda3, sda4, and sda5.. 'sudo mount /dev/sda1 /test' gives "mount point /test does not exist"
[03:47] <Stupendoussteve> Untrue, they have the #lubuntu channel for a reason. The official channel does not do support for derivatives
[03:48] <Compiling> its not like you have to say what version you're running
[03:48] <Stupendoussteve> Of course not, until people tell you to open things that do not exist on your distro
[03:48] <Compiling> they are functionally the same
[03:48] <Stupendoussteve> !derivatives
[03:48] <Compiling> then he can use the lubuntu support channel if he wants
[03:48] <Compiling> calm down
[03:48] <Stupendoussteve> I am calm :)
[03:49] <Smooch> Was just changing my nick, and to the person (Don't know name) who asks me if i have any ubuntu related questions, i don't.. i'm just here to help
[03:49] <Ex-Opesa> randerzander: do mkdir /mnt/name and then mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/name, use sudo.
[03:49] <Compiling> i dont see lubuntu in there
[03:49] <Stupendoussteve> Those are some examples
[03:49] <Smooch> Compiling: The irc chat is #lubuntu
[03:49] <Ex-Opesa> Yep
[03:49] <mikeds> Is there a hardcore Linux group of users angered over Ubuntu and its users?
[03:49] <Compiling> i dont use it lol
[03:50] <Stupendoussteve> Those are examples :) A derivative is a derivative, only those released by Canonical are supported here
[03:50] <Stupendoussteve> I don't use it either, but some are "angered"
[03:50] <Smooch> mikeds: If you don't like ubuntu, don't use it
[03:50] <Stupendoussteve> Usually they just want to feel superior
[03:50] <mikeds> No, I use it - but I am wondering if its like when your favorite obscure band hits the big time
[03:50] <Smooch> I use ubuntu server most of the time
[03:51] <Smooch> But i know a lot about ubuntu :)
[03:51] <Compiling> I don't even use Ubuntu to tell you the truth, I just answer questions here when im bored
[03:51] <mikeds> smooch - had you looked at other server options
[03:51] <mikeds> Compile: what do you use
[03:51] <Compiling> depends on the context
[03:51] <Smooch> Please visit ubuntu-offtopic for anything unrelated to ubuntu
[03:51] <Compiling> at work we use rhel and rhel based distributions
[03:51] <newboon2age> gryllida: tarandus: I tried Ubuntu Netbook Edition 10.04 on a 238MB lap top and it ran well.  It was probably a little zippier than Xubuntu was.  Didn't get to try Lubuntu so I can't say anything about that.  Note that there are #xubuntu and #lubuntu irc channels for support.
[03:51] <Compiling> my laptop has flavours of bsd and solaris
[03:51] <mikeds> ok - "the hat"
[03:52] <RJames> RJames vs Ubuntu netbook round 2: So yesterday I tried loading 10.04-netbook live CD onto a USB and then tried booting from it.  It semi-worked, but loaded up a login prompt when I never configured a user/pass to begin with.  This behavior was on both my netbook and desktop.  So today, I loaded ubuntu-netbook 9.10 onto the same USB drive... and walla, I can boot from it and get into the OS.  I can connect to network, launch firefox, li
[03:52] <Compiling> helping out here keeps my memory fresh for Debian-based administration
[03:52] <mikeds> Newboon: same here typing now from the Netbook Edition on  older crappy laptop - runs nice
[03:52] <Compiling> when i run into it :)
[03:52] <mikeds> exatly - good to run or use a few
[03:52] <Smooch> You never know what you might learn :)
[03:53] <Stupendoussteve> RJames: Your stuff was too long
[03:53] <Compiling> lold
[03:53] <RJames> But if I try to install the bugger from the USB to the netbook's SSD drive... 67% through the install, I get a disk error.  Any troubleshooting tips to check if it's the SSD drive or the usb drive?
[03:53] <Smooch> !pastebin
[03:53] <mikeds> try it from a cd install
[03:53] <Stupendoussteve> That wasn't multiline, just too long of a sentence
[03:53] <RJames> Stupendoussteve: sorry for lengthiness.
[03:53] <tarandus> newboon2age: What's the major differences between the Remix/Netbook and the Desktop anyway?
[03:54] <Compiling> lmao
[03:54] <mikeds> and burn slow
[03:54] <tarandus> I'm already installing the xubuntu-desktop package, so we'll see how well that fares..
[03:54] <mikeds> Tarandus: did you ever post your specs?
[03:54] <Smooch> tarandus: Ubuntu Netbook Remix is made directly for well netbooks
[03:55] <Smooch> tarrandus: The Desktop version is men't for laptops or desktops
[03:55] <mikeds> I loaded the Netbook edition onto my older laptop knowing that most netbooks were lowered powered underpowered etc
[03:55] <mikeds> it seemed like a good match
[03:55] <Stupendoussteve> Mostly the UI, Network Edition is optimized for a smaller screen
[03:55] <rww> tarandus: the interface is different. that's about it
[03:55] <Smooch> Couldn't of put it better myself :D
[03:55] <mikeds> I agree: it has a nice layout on its interface, very usable with less clicking thru menus
[03:55] <tarandus> what specs do you need to know? i'm on a thinkpad t23 running pentium 3 @ 1ghz w/ 1gb ram. i'm going to assume the old processor is the problem, but i'm wondering why it was doing more than fine with xppro
[03:56] <Stupendoussteve> XP Pro was released when those specs were considered outstanding ;)
[03:56] <tarandus> but ubuntu looks gorgeous, i'm thinking of installing it side-by-side windows 7 on my main desktop
[03:56] <newboon2age> tarandus: there must be more different under the hood (and i don't know everything about it) but on the surface, the desktop is aimed at a small screen so there is a simplified menu with fewer/larger icons.
[03:56] <ryaxnb> ntu
[03:56] <mikeds> Tarandus that sounds like enough for Xbuntu, I am Celeron 1.6 Dell Optiplex 320 running a 5200 rpm drive
[03:56] <tarandus> yeah
[03:56] <Smooch> Offtopic: No one is talking in ubuntu-server
[03:56] <Compiling> xp is from 2001
[03:56] <Compiling> so yeah
[03:57] <RJames> I wish I knew why the 'check the file system' command in the palimpset disk utility is grayed out for me.
[03:57] <ryaxnb> if there is a slowness in ubuntu there are too things you can do
[03:57] <ryaxnb> tarandus, add ram/faster swap disk
[03:57] <Compiling> two
[03:57] <Stupendoussteve> tarandus: XP recommended specs are 300mhz and 128mb ram... that is why XP runs relatively quickly on there
[03:57] <ryaxnb> or switch to a lighter linux, like crunchband or DSL.
[03:57] <ryaxnb> crunchbang is best on all but the very lightest
[03:57] <Loneclock> is there a civilization 4 channel?
[03:57] <ryaxnb> dsl is good on pentiums, 486s
[03:57] <Compiling> tarandus: check out swappiness: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq
[03:57] <mikeds> I would say on this laptop XP home ran a tad smoother or quicker than the Netbook Ubuntu.  But overall both are usable whereas as Vista on this machine was a dog
[03:57] <Smooch> Ubuntu needs an online 'Which version is right for me?'
[03:58] <tarandus> Win7 is amazing though, you guys might hate me for saying this, but I haven't found a Linux distro to match up/replace it on the main machine yet
[03:58] <ryaxnb> for PIIs or PIIIs or slow P4s i recommend Crunchbang
[03:58] <ryaxnb> i much prefer ubuntu to win7
[03:58] <ryaxnb> but thats an #ubuntu-offtopic
[03:58] <mikeds> Amazing in what way?  Certainly you mean graphically?
[03:58] <ryaxnb> discussion.
[03:58] <rww> Loneclock: Unlikely. "/msg alis help list" for info on channel searching. Network questions go in #freenode, for future reference.
[03:58] <RJames> I already tried 'erase the contents of the drive' before running the install to see if it would solve my disk error at 67%, but it didn't work.  It's possible that it's my USB drive and not my SSD drive, but I don't know how to test for that.
[03:58] <newboon2age> Loneclock: i know there is an #ubuntu-games channel
[03:58] <Smooch> tarandus: i could continue with this discussion but, if your looking to get to know linux more, but just don't know how to use it. Mac OS X is the best.. its built apon the unix platform
[03:58] <Compiling> Smooch: i thought the same a while back
[03:58] <RJames> without installing on another system.. which I don't have the luxury of doing.
[03:58] <Compiling> Smooch: much like canyourunit
[03:59] <ryaxnb> tarandus, how much ram does your slow machine have?
[03:59] <tarandus> ryaxnb: 1gb
[03:59] <ryaxnb> if you have low ram, you have to swap and on an old disk that is slow
[03:59] <newboon2age> tarandus: i agree that ubuntu is gorgeous.  The looks really grabbed me.
[03:59] <mikeds> Ryan he has 1 gb
[03:59] <ryaxnb> thats alright i suppose.
[03:59] <ryaxnb> it should be fine.
[03:59] <afallenhope> does the latest version of ubuntu HAVE to be ext4?
[03:59] <mikeds> he sais he meets the min specs -
[03:59] <ryaxnb> for heavy use, 2GB is ideal.
[03:59] <tarandus> yeah
[03:59] <Smooch> afallenhope: I don't think so.
[03:59] <ryaxnb> afallenhope, no.
[03:59] <Compiling> afallenhope: you should be able to change the fs
[03:59] <ryaxnb> you can install even on ext2
[04:00] <mikeds> it sounds like his drive is a slower drive maybe - generation older than 5200's
[04:00] <Compiling> i havent checked, but is Reiser or XFS available?
[04:00] <Compiling> id assume XFS is
[04:00] <ryaxnb> do not know
[04:00] <afallenhope> I tryingto getit to chose my free 80GB but it says ext4 ..
[04:00] <ryaxnb> i believe reiser3 is
[04:00] <afallenhope> do I manually have to repartition the  tables?
[04:00] <mikeds> Boy 2G to run Ubuntu - that sounds like a Windows 7 machine - 1g to run but 2 gig to be real
[04:00] <Smooch> afallenhope: Do you want a full ubuntu install?, do you have any other oses on there?
[04:00] <Sb__> my install of 8.04 seems to be freezing at generating locales
[04:00] <tarandus> pickin up pizza, will be back
[04:01] <rww> afallenhope: you need to use manual partitioning to use something other than ext4, yes
[04:01] <afallenhope> Smooch, I have Windows 7 64 Bit
[04:01] <Smooch> afallenhope: Are you trying to create a dual boot?
[04:01] <afallenhope> Smooch, yes
[04:01] <afallenhope> Smooch,  I've already resized my Windows Partition
[04:01] <afallenhope> I now have 80GB unallocated..
[04:01] <Smooch> afallenhope: Check out http://lifehacker.com/5403100/dual+boot-windows-7-and-ubuntu-in-perfect-harmony
[04:02] <rww> Sb__: sudo apt-get install locales . Are you using an 8.04 image provided by a VPS or something?
[04:02] <Smooch> afallenhope: Wait
[04:02] <rww> Sb__: oh, freezing. hrm, never mind, it's usually missing completely on them.
[04:02] <Sb__> i'm using the alternate install because it's an older machine and can't handle the live install
[04:02] <Smooch> !dualboot
[04:02] <Smooch> There :)
[04:02] <Sagaci> would it be easy to make a metapackage
[04:03] <prash> afallenhope, is there a dropdown where you choose the filesystem
[04:03] <afallenhope> yeah,, I looked at that.. all the guides are confusing
[04:03] <Smooch> afallenhope: What part don't you get?
[04:03] <afallenhope> prash,  not if you only select "use the largest"
[04:03] <rww> Sb__: are you sure it's freezing? Locale generation does tend to take a while on older computers.
[04:04] <Sb__> rww - I was at about 6 hours
[04:04] <Roasted> at one point on my laptop, I had a monitor connected to it with dual screen. I no longer have the monitor connected, yet about 50% of the time I boot up, it still thinks its connected cause windows often launch on that window. Its an intel card. What can I do? It gets VERY old booting up to find my login screen is gone because its on the 2nd monitor that doesnt exist.
[04:04] <zhouhang> hello
[04:04] <mikeds> Afallen hope - you might want to try another drive to be safe and easy
[04:04] <RJames> is there a utility I can run from command line to check disk health?  the filesystem check is grayed out in palimpsest disk utility.
[04:04] <mikeds> if you have a spare
[04:04] <zhouhang> anyone?
[04:04] <prash> afallenhope, then I guess manual partitioning first is the way to go.
[04:04] <Smooch> afallenhope: How about use Wubu?, and then just regain the free space to windows?
[04:04] <mikeds> Commands: How can I run a system file check in ubu?
[04:04] <Smooch> *wubi
[04:05] <afallenhope> Smooch, because wubi degrades the performance from my undesrtanding
[04:05] <Smooch> afallenhope: It does yes
[04:05] <rww> sebsebseb: it's freezing during the installation itself?
[04:05] <afallenhope> that's not something I'm wanting..
[04:05] <Smooch> One second
[04:05] <philsf> what's the proper channel to ask about packages from the canonical DX team PPA?
[04:05] <rww> sebsebseb: sorry, mistab
[04:05] <rww> Sb__: It's freezing during the installation itself, or during updates or something later?
[04:06] <Smooch> afallenhope: Step by step guide: http://apcmag.com/the_definitive_dualbooting_guide_linux_vista_and_xp_stepbystep.htm should be easy
[04:06] <Sb__> rww - it's hanging at 1% at the "Configuring language-pack-en-base" stage
[04:06] <Sb__> was at that point for 6 hours straight when I gave up
[04:07] <Roasted> Im honestly about to format this fricken laptop if nobody has a clue how I can fix the dual screen issue.
[04:07] <Smooch> Roasted: Whats the problem?
[04:07] <evon> well no luck
[04:07] <Roasted> at one point on my laptop, I had a monitor connected to it with dual screen. I no longer have the monitor connected, yet about 50% of the time I boot up, it still thinks its connected cause windows often launch on that window. Its an intel card. What can I do? It gets VERY old booting up to find my login screen is gone because its on the 2nd monitor that doesnt exist.
[04:07] <Roasted> Smooch, ^
[04:07] <evon> thune3, no luck
[04:08] <rww> Sb__: weird. Is it reproducible, or did it only happen the one time?
[04:08] <afallenhope> Once installed .. can I change the ex4 to ex3 without breaking the os?
[04:08] <Smooch> afallenhope: Do that by partitioning manually
[04:08] <Smooch> and choosing the ext3 file system
[04:08] <afallenhope> Smooch,  look
[04:08] <Sb__> rww - i found a post about it, it seems to have problems when it gets to en_us.utf-8  (if i hit alt f4 to see what is going on)
[04:09] <Sb__> rww - seems from what others have said it happens every time
[04:09] <rww> afallenhope: ext4 with default options isn't backwards-compatible to ext3, no. If you want ext3, use manual partitioning
[04:09] <RJames> mikeds: 'Commands: How can I run a system file check in ubu?' Is that some kind of command?
[04:10] <prash> afallenhope, If you prefer ext3, go fot it - manual partitioning
[04:10] <Smooch> If you can, i'd suggest ext4
[04:11] <afallenhope> Why ext4.. i've heard nothing but nightmare issues with it
[04:11] <frank_> hello everybody
[04:11] <Smooch> afallenhope: I'v installed tons of installations of 10.04, and its worked great
[04:11] <rww> Sb__: how much memory does it have?
[04:11] <prash> afallenhope, contrary to what others have said, my ext4 has been working just fine
[04:12] <Sb__> rww - over 200 megs i believe (it's been stored away a while so i forget the exact amount)
[04:12] <afallenhope> Smooch,  and prash http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1133719
[04:13] <Sb__> rww - this seems to be close to what's happening to me, although i'm trying to install not upgrade http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=865679
[04:13] <rww> Sb__: Could possibly be https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/debian-installer/+bug/202959 . Comment #13 has a workaround, but it's a little complicated.
[04:14] <prash> afallenhope, I have heard of problems when transferring very huge amounts of data.  That article is from april 2009.  We are in Lucid now.
[04:14] <mikeds> RJAMES:  a command to check all the files and make sure nothing is wrong
[04:14] <mikeds> like a sfc /scannow in windows
[04:14] <prash> afallenhope, I am not saying ext4 is the best out there.  Just saying I personally have not encountered any issues
[04:15] <tertl3> prash, btfs?
[04:15] <afallenhope> prash, and hence the reason as to why I'm trying to stick with it
[04:15] <mikeds> ext3 may be safer overall since its more established
[04:15] <Smooch> afallenhope: Just do manual partitioning then??
[04:15] <prash> tertl3, with maverick
[04:15] <RJames> mikeds: oh .. you are asking, not telling.  I think fsck will do it but I'm not sure.
[04:15] <Sb__> rww - urgh,  i'm afraid that's beyond my abilities
[04:16] <afallenhope> Smooch, the thing is.. hmm maybe you'll respond better to picture hold up I'll give you a picture..
[04:16] <prash> afallenhope, that's fine ext3 should be just fine.  I have one of my karmic on ext3 and that is fine too.
[04:16] <tertl3> its all good
[04:16] <tertl3> i still use ntfs :)
[04:16] <mikeds> FSCK warns of sever damage - either your messing with me or maybe it has to be unmounted somehow before running fsck
[04:18] <prash> tertl3, last I heard they were still ironing out the problems with btfs. ext4 was thought of to be a stop gap file system.
[04:18] <afallenhope> prash, http://imagebin.ca/view/KoaYUYt.html
[04:18] <prash> tertl3, btrfs
[04:18] <afallenhope> Smooch, http://imagebin.ca/view/KoaYUYt.html
[04:20] <prash> afallenhope, You need to create an extended partition on that 80GB unalllocated.  Inside of which you can create your root(/) and swap partitions (at a minimum)
[04:20] <Smooch> sda is external, right?
[04:20] <mikeds> Afllenhope: I am lost - have you already partitioned for ext3 and added a boot sector /
[04:20] <Smooch> nvm.
[04:20] <puff> Can anybody give me help getting bluetooth working between my laptop and a palm tungsten?
[04:20] <mikeds> root I should say
[04:21] <prash> mikeds, from his image, I do not see that
[04:21] <Roasted> at one point on my laptop, I had a monitor connected to it with dual screen. I no longer have the monitor connected, yet about 50% of the time I boot up, it still thinks its connected cause windows often launch on that window. Its an intel card. What can I do? It gets VERY old booting up to find my login screen is gone because its on the 2nd monitor that doesnt exist.
[04:21] <newboon2age> afallenhope: also that post is like 33 pages long and when you read the recent posts at the end they are all pretty positive re: ext4
[04:21] <puff> the tungsten isn't discovering my laptop, but I'm not certain that my laptop is discoverable.  How do I check
[04:22] <Smooch> afallenhope: How about, download virtualbox and create a test vm, then format that to the same as yours, and test it :)
[04:22] <grumete> Hi, I can't hear any sound now... at the beginning it was alright. I have a partition windows/ubuntu, and I can't hear anything in any of them, any idea, thanks in advance.
[04:22] <afallenhope> sigh.. didn't know i bothered you guys.. I'll leave everyone be sorry for wasting your time
[04:22] <Smooch> Don't bother me
[04:22] <Smooch> :P
[04:23] <afallenhope> Well like.. I know where you guys are coming from.. I'm just trying to understand is all
[04:23] <prash> afallenhope, that's y we have this forum
[04:23] <Flannel> afallenhope: "Use largest freespace" or whatever auto-partition things should create a / and a swap partition
[04:23] <Smooch> afallenhope: You need to enter the ubuntu installer, and format that free unallocated space to ext3
[04:24] <kokozedman> hey guys
[04:24] <kokozedman> i'm having serious troubles with my Ubuntu 10.04 LTS servers
[04:24] <Smooch> Do you understand how to format using ext3?
[04:24] <afallenhope> Smooch, okay.. so after that..  have it install there?
[04:24] <dennis> I have BT4 and Ubuntu installed and am using the Grub2 scripts on the BT4 partition to generate the menu. My question: My Ubuntu updates are getting downloaded but Grub is not booting into them. I have booted int BT4 and ran the grub-update script but it is not changing the Grub menu.
[04:24] <kokozedman> they all have extremely weird time and clock issues
[04:24] <Smooch> kokozedman: Visit #ubuntu-server channel
[04:24] <kokozedman> Smooch: ok thanks
[04:24] <Flannel> kokozedman: What time and clock issues?
[04:24] <Smooch> afallenhope: As always backup important data before installing something new
[04:24] <Sb__> rww - can I enter the grub menu if i can't get ubuntu to install?  in other words, can I enter the menu from the alternate install cd?
[04:25] <prince_jammys> dennis: ##backtrack-linux
[04:26] <afallenhope> Smooch,  so okay.. formatted it to ext3 now re-run the installer?
[04:26] <prince_jammys> or one #
[04:26] <dennis> thanks prince
[04:26] <Smooch> afallenhope, Format it IN the ubuntu installer
[04:26] <Roasted> at one point on my laptop, I had a monitor connected to it with dual screen. I no longer have the monitor connected, yet about 50% of the time I boot up, it still thinks its connected cause windows often launch on that window. Its an intel card. What can I do? It gets VERY old booting up to find my login screen is gone because its on the 2nd monitor that doesnt exist.
[04:27] <tonsofpcs> ugh... dep hell... any ideas? http://pastebin.ca/1894786
[04:27] <kbrosnan> Roasted: reconfigure your xorg.conf not to list the second monitor
[04:27] <punkin> ...
[04:27] <afallenhope> Smooch,  http://imagebin.ca/view/qzN5BI.html
[04:28] <Roasted> kbrosnan, I didnt think intel's dual screen manager even to uched the xorg file??
[04:28] <Smooch> afallenhope: click change
[04:28] <afallenhope> Smooch, so it's a primary ext3 with mountpoint to /
[04:29] <kbrosnan> Roasted: worth a check if you are not sure. I know with nvidia that was my issue, later found out that you can modify the number of monitors in userspace.
[04:29] <Smooch> afallenhope: I think so
[04:29] <Roasted> kbrosnan, hm, the path for xorg is /etc/xorg.conf right?
[04:29] <afallenhope> will it auto-create swap?
[04:29] <Roasted> er /etc/x11/xorg.conf
[04:29] <puff> How do I find/set the bluetooth pin for pairing?
[04:29] <prash> afallenhope, You need to create an extended first otherwise you run out of partitions for swap unless you do not want swap.
[04:30] <kbrosnan> Roasted: yes
[04:30] <afallenhope> prash, so I do that using GParted?
[04:30] <prash> afallenhope, my preference would be gparted
[04:30] <Jordan_U> Roasted: /etc/X11/xorg.conf (note the capital 'X')
[04:31] <Roasted> Jordan_U, yeahhhh I remember that. :P
[04:32] <afallenhope> Well I guess I could install as EXT4... erase the EXT4 make a new one to EXT3 and then install ..
[04:32] <Roasted> kbrosnan, uh, I dont have a xorg.conf................
[04:33] <mikeds> afallen: have u already ruined the windows boot on this drive?  if not maybe find an old drive for testing linux on
[04:33] <Jordan_U> Roasted: That's normal, an xorg.conf is not needed by default.
[04:33] <Roasted> Jordan_U, hm...
[04:33] <Roasted> Jordan_U, well, if I dont have a xorg.conf, what in the world is causing my laptop to *think* about 50% of the time theres a 2nd monitor connected when there is not?
[04:36] <mikeds> Roasted" do you have a hotkey or something that sends a signal to the vga out on your laptop that might be stuck on
[04:36] <mikeds> Function F4 on my laptop does this
[04:36] <puff> How do I set the pin on my bluetooth?
[04:36] <Roasted> mikeds, no. I have no hot key. Not to mention, this happens before I can even log in. Sometimes Ill start up and Ill just have the purple background with no login screen. Turns out the login screen is on the other monitor that doesnt exist
[04:36] <Roasted> mikeds, OH! you mean a pre-defined one. I thought you meant if I set one up myself
[04:37] <mikeds> no thay have them - this is an older compaq with them
[04:37] <mikeds> the F4 key has a little monitor logo on it
[04:37] <Roasted> mikeds, the thing is, when it thinks I have a 2nd monitor, myr esolution on my laptop is off. So when I reset my resolution back to normal, all of my icons in the upper panel in the right side are out of order. Its a minor thing, but I HATE reorganizing them.
[04:37] <Roasted> mikeds, it looks like ALT F8 is the key for my laptop
[04:38] <Roasted> mikeds, gonna reboot till the weird screen thing happens again and test it
[04:38] <mikeds> k - just grasping at straws here
[04:38] <ChSR[wrk]> anyone have ideas how to enable ipv6 via hurricane electric and route the /64 net ?
[04:39] <julian_> Has anyone had any luck in installing sbmanager on ubuntu 10.04?  When I do a "./configure", I get a ./configure: line 12771: syntax error near unexpected token `0.35.0' [next line] ./configure: line 12771: `IT_PROG_INTLTOOL(0.35.0)'error.
[04:39] <afallenhope> Smooch, prash http://imagebin.ca/view/AYFFj5.html
[04:39] <puff> Argh... so, I tried to initiate pairing from the laptop, which seemed to go okay, the laptop saw the tungsten and I selected it.
[04:39] <puff> it said "type this PIN into the tungsten", the tungsten had a popup saying "enter the PIN for yourlaptop"
[04:39] <puff> entered the PIN, the laptop said pairing failed.
[04:40] <Smooch> afallenhope: That should work
[04:40] <prash> afallenhope, how much is your RAM
[04:40] <afallenhope> prash, 3B..
[04:40] <prash> afallenhope, 3 bytes
[04:40] <afallenhope> GB**8
[04:40] <afallenhope> lol. sorry
[04:41] <Smooch> 3 or 8gb?
[04:41] <Smooch> usually a swap only needs to be 1gig
[04:41] <afallenhope> RAM is 3GB**********
[04:42] <prash> afallenhope, you should be ok then.  My concern is hibernate.  Anyway you can resize it later if required
[04:42] <afallenhope> what about hibernate?
[04:42] <Smooch> !hibernate
[04:42] <Smooch> !suspend
[04:42] <Smooch> !suspendtoram?
[04:42] <afallenhope> !suicide | afallenhope
[04:42] <afallenhope> lol.
[04:43] <Smooch> :O
[04:43] <basicxman> My Ubuntu server box can't ping others on the local network, and vise-versa.  How can I fix this?
[04:43] <basicxman> !help
[04:43] <afallenhope> it's okay he doesn't know anything about suicide
[04:43] <Jordan_U> !msgthebot > Smooch
[04:43] <Smooch> basicxman: Are you connected to the internet?
[04:43] <basicxman> Smooch: Yes.
[04:43] <prash> afallenhope, Generally for hibernate to work, it needs at least as much memory as RAM.  so you should be good
[04:43] <basicxman> Smooch: Nor can I access the gateway's linksys webpage.
[04:43] <afallenhope> awesome ty prash
[04:44] <afallenhope> so once I hit APPLY
[04:44] <afallenhope> umm.. than I run the installer?
[04:44] <Smooch> basicxman: And it's connected to the router?, can you access any site at all?
[04:44] <basicxman> Yes
[04:44] <prash> afallenhope, apply and install choosing "specify partitions manually"
[04:44] <basicxman> Internet works normally
[04:44] <basicxman> Just can't access any local things
[04:44] <afallenhope> awesome
[04:44] <afallenhope> ty.
[04:44] <Smooch> All ubuntu ?
[04:44] <basicxman> Smooch: Yes.
[04:44] <afallenhope> huh? I've applied 80GB to ubuntu
[04:45] <basicxman> Smooch: It seems to think 192.168.1.110 is my gateway or something
[04:45] <Smooch> basicxman: Is iptables enabled, or any firewall enabled on the others?
[04:45] <Alan502> I'm amazed of how many connections firestarter blocks
[04:45] <basicxman> I think when I was installing it I set my hostname to .110
[04:45] <basicxman> Smooch: ufw is enabled.
[04:45] <Smooch> try disabling it, and then try the ping
[04:45] <Smooch> re enable if it works
[04:46] <basicxman> Smooch: When I ping a local address, here's what I get: http://pastebin.com/eBgmLeef
[04:46] <Smooch> basicxman: type ifconfig, it should tell you your router ip
[04:46] <afallenhope> Smooch,  prash i chose round cylinders is that okay?
[04:47] <afallenhope> for both
[04:47] <prash> afallenhope, That is ok. Make sure root(/) goes into /dev/sda5 and swap into /dev/sda6.
[04:47] <tonsofpcs> anyone here running hardy on i686? if so, can you pastebin /usr/sbin/update-python-modules for me?
[04:47] <afallenhope> prash,  i made the extended.. than root / and then swap.. not sure how it's going to light up though
[04:47] <afallenhope> applying changes
[04:48] <afallenhope> wish me luck..
[04:48] <Smooch> :)
[04:48] <basicxman> Tried disabling ufw and still no luck.
[04:48] <basicxman> Smooch: However, 192.168.1.110 isn't any used local address.
[04:48] <prash> afallenhope, good luck
[04:48] <eNonsense> hey guys.  i'm having a little problem installing ubuntu on my laptop from CD.  i boot up the install disc and it goes to a black screen with this at the bottom and doesn't do anything else.  i've tried burning the image twice.  http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2561448/DSCF4338.JPG
[04:48] <Smooch> did ufw disable?
[04:48] <Smooch> try /etc/init.d/ufw status? or service ufw status?
[04:49] <Niglop> is there a way i can make a new user and transfer all the files from my 1st user to my 2nd?
[04:49] <eNonsense> can anyone tell me what that icon means?  it's kinda cryptic.  i don't even know what the first one is.
[04:50] <prash> afallenhope, In the "ready to install screen", click advanced and make sure /dev/sda is checked (NOT /dev/sda1 or any other partitions)
[04:50] <basicxman> Smooch: I don't think ufw is the problem, it's disabled. eth0 has it's inet address set to 192.168.1.110.  However I'm using ra0 as my network interface.
[04:50] <Smooch> basicxman: Your not using a proxy?
[04:51] <basicxman> Smooch: No.
[04:51] <basicxman> Smooch: Can I edit the inet address of my eth0 interface?
[04:51] <Smooch> basicxman: Are you using DHCP?
[04:52] <Niglop> is there a way i can make a new user and transfer all the files from my 1st user to my 2nd?
[04:52] <basicxman> Yes, however the router assigns this MAC a static IP of 192.168.1.149
[04:52] <afallenhope> oh okay thanks
[04:52] <Smooch> Niglop
[04:53] <Niglop> yo
[04:53] <basicxman> Smooch: I just edited /etc/network/interfaces and replaced all 192.168.1.110 with 192.168.1.1 and the Network: as 192.168.1.1
[04:53] <basicxman> Rebooting now to see if it works
[04:53] <Niglop> yes Smooch
[04:53] <Smooch> Niglop: Enter their home directory, and type cp * /home/newuserhomedir
[04:53] <Smooch> basicxman: ok
[04:53] <Niglop> thanks smooch :)
[04:53] <Niglop> how do i make a new user
[04:53] <eNonsense> anyone?

[05:16] <wizz> someone know how to change server ip in ubuntu?
[05:16] <prince_jammys> Haxor: well, if you want e17, you'll end up installing xorg.

[05:16] <Niglop> with the *?
[05:17] <prash> Socky, have you tried anything so far?
[05:17] <Haxor> prince_jammys: sure xD the point was i dont want gdm and gnome in the installation
[05:17] <terry> Niglop: But you have to be logged in as the admin user, (which will be the original user that was created when you first installed.)
[05:17] <prince_jammys> Haxor: but go ahead and install from the alternate cd, and then install enlightenment. you'll skip gnome.
[05:17] <Smooch> !oem | Niglop
[05:17] <prince_jammys> Haxor: right. you can do exactly that from the alternate cd, as you said.
[05:17] <Smooch> for some reason hes user is oem

[05:18] <Niglop> tery i did it
[05:18] <Haxor> prince_jammys: thnks for the info i go to install it, i need to put that option in the boot menu ?

[05:19] <IdleOne> !noX | Haxor prince_jammys

[05:25] <guowen> hello
[05:25] <Smooch> got disconnected
[05:26] <prash> Vin73, basically if you see the jumper on the HDD and the CD-rom, they were both set to cable-select instead of master/slave on the same IDE channel.
[05:26] <Vin73> prash: how do I check this on my laptop?that is where I need some input...
[05:27] <afallenhope> Smooch, prash  moment of truth.. rebooting

[05:28] <angelbaby> hi all new to ubuntu (linux) , Ive moved my panel, and Ive added so many icons, there is no free space on it. I can no loner move it. How can I move my panel back to the top?
[05:28] <joshmuffin> How do you reconfigure X
[05:28] <Smooch> :)
[05:28] <prash> vin73, I have not done this on a laptop and so do not want to misguide you.  I hope someone else can chip in.  In the meantime, are you able to read any other CD/DVD at all?
[05:30] <Vin73> prash: yes, I had installed Fedora 12 on this laptop previously....and that installed and worked without any issues....I had installed Fedora 12 from a DVD as I did in the case of Ubuntu....I am using Compaq nx9010
[05:30] <abhi_nav> angelbaby, temporarily remove anyone icon then there will be free space now move that panel using mouse after placing it to top again add that itcon to panel.
[05:31] <prash> Vin73, logically, if there were no hardware changes between now and then, we should not be messing with the hardware.
[05:31] <abhi_nav> Vin73, can you reapeat your question quicly for me?
[05:31] <angelbaby> is there a run script to just adding another panel?
[05:32] <Vin73> prash: so, I am at a loss about where to go from this point onwards, where the reboot hangs....I am not sure how to proceed....

[05:33] <Vin73> abhi_nav: I need some help with an error scenario that I run into, when I reboot after ubuntu installation... Here is  a sample of the error that I get....

[05:36] <Niglop> how to change password of a user
[05:36] <Vin73> abhi_nav: how can I do that? btw, I have SATA harddisk on my laptop if that is what you are referring to...
[05:36] <prince_jammys> terry: was an obvious question, but hey.
[05:36] <Niglop> one that im not logged into
[05:36] <angelbaby> thats the only way?
[05:36] <abhi_nav> Vin73, go to bios and there is setting whether you want to enable sata support or not. set that setting to 'yes enable sata'
[05:36] <abhi_nav> Niglop, you have admin rights? then you can go to users and groups and change it from there
[05:36] <Niglop> ty
[05:37] <Vin73> abhi_nav: ok...let me try that...
[05:37] <abhi_nav> Vin73, ok
[05:37] <abhi_nav> Vin73, which version of buntu?
[05:37] <terry> prince_jammys: Yes, you will see hidden files in $HOME
[05:37] <th3Xfagtr> need suggestions for using SMS from comp to mobile
[05:37] <Smooch> prash did alfallenhope get it working?
[05:38] <terry> prince_jammys: ls -a $HOME
[05:38] <prash> Smooch, he did appear and disappear a few times.
[05:38] <prince_jammys> terry: but not necessarily in subdirectories of $HOME.
[05:38] <Smooch> prash: did it work then?
[05:38] <prash> Smooch, dunno
[05:38] <terry> prince_jammys: Yes you are correct.
[05:38] <Smooch> prash k
[05:38] <prince_jammys> my question was simply: are you sure that there are any dotfiles in your present dir?
[05:38] <Smooch> lol
[05:39] <abhi_nav> Vin73, i come back in 2 min.
[05:39] <Vin73> ABHI_NAV: latest version....btw how can I enable sata from bios, I am unable to find a related entry...ok, I'll wait
[05:39] <Vin73> abhi_nav:  latest version....btw how can I enable sata from bios, I am unable to find a related entry...ok, I'll wait
[05:39] <abhi_nav> Vin73, which laptop ?
[05:40] <Vin73> abh_nav: compaq nx91010
[05:40] <abhi_nav> Vin73, in the bios setting under somewhere hdd or like that you explore each and every option there it should be. enable sata
[05:41] <Vin73> abhi_nav: ok, let me see...
[05:41] <abhi_nav> Vin73, hmm
[05:42] <terry> prince_jammys: BTW, if you want to show ONLY hidden files you can do: ls -a|grep "^\."
[05:42] <Vin73> abhi_nav: no I don't see a setting related to hdd here...
[05:42] <abhi_nav> Vin73, in BIOS? how you go to bios while you are online? you know bios?
[05:43] <tonsofpcs> ok, i just got out of dep-hell.  Do I distupgrade and then reinstall X aand gdm and gnome and all thatt or do i reinstall them then distupgrade?
[05:43] <tonsofpcs> (at hardy now)
[05:43] <abhi_nav> Vin73, you have to restart your pc. then press some button may be esc, f10 etc different for each laptop. then blue screen with options appears that is BIOS
[05:43] <Vin73> abhi_nav: apparently I do...I can go to bios by using f2 at boot up
[05:43] <abhi_nav> Vin73, yes
[05:44] <abhi_nav> Vin73, you are not on the same pc where you have problem?
[05:44] <terry> tonsofpcs: Why not just install the version you want in the firt place.  But you should be able to just upgrade from where you are.  Right?
[05:44] <prash> Vin73, did you try to remove your disk just before reboot?
[05:45] <Vin73> abhi_nav: no I am on a different windows desktop...but the laptop is very nearby so I can try out things in no time
[05:45] <Vin73> prash: yes I did
[05:45] <abhi_nav> Vin73,  I see
[05:45] <tonsofpcs> terry: this is an existing system
[05:45] <terry> tonsofpcs: Ok, so, what are you trying to do?
[05:45] <tonsofpcs> i just got out of dep-hell
[05:45] <th3XfagtrMD> how do i send SMS or text messages from my comp to my cell phones?
[05:46] <tonsofpcs> in hardy.
[05:46] <tonsofpcs> i want a working system again
[05:46] <prash> Vin73, did you also try hitting enter key a few times?
[05:46] <terry> tonsofpcs: Try complete sentences and keep all of the conversation on one line.
[05:46] <prash> Vin73, these are just shots in the dark
[05:46] <tonsofpcs> I'm sorry, I tried that to start with and some users of the channel couldn't follow.
[05:46] <tonsofpcs> I temporally separated parts of the statement so that they could more easily follow.
[05:46] <Vin73> abhi_nav: I am afraid there is no option related to hdd that I can see in my bios....I just went inot the hard disk settings and had a look
[05:47] <Vin73> prash: yes I tried all that
[05:47] <abhi_nav> Vin73, anything written as SATA Or IDE?
[05:47] <terry> tonsofpcs: What is your situation?  Can you just do updates now? If not, why not?
[05:48] <Vin73> abhi_nav: There is a Type field at the top which is set to Auto
[05:48] <tonsofpcs> I just got out of dep-hell.  I'm on hardy, I am 'upgrading' all still-installed packages to latest.  To get out of dep-hell, I had to remove X and gnome and gtk and gdm.
[05:48] <WellDone> Vin73: Try the Advanced CMOS settings
[05:49] <WellDone> Vin73: It might be there
[05:49] <Vin73> Welldone: just a minute...let me see
[05:49] <abhi_nav> Vin73, there under ' Advanced ' tab there is two options onboard pata/sata adapters and onboard pata/sata configuratios try if you can set them both to sata
[05:49] <mneptok> tonsofpcs: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get reinstall ubuntu-desktop && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[05:50] <tonsofpcs> mneptok: did you read my question at all?
[05:50] <Vin73> WellDone: Under Advanced menu, I can see External Poiniting Device, Legacy USB support and Print Port Mode
[05:51] <tonsofpcs> trust me, i know the apt commands
[05:51] <tonsofpcs> I just spent 2.5 hours fixing apt.
[05:51] <mneptok> tonsofpcs: yes, you removed requisite elements of ubuntu-desktop. reinstalling it will pull in all its dependencies like X, gdm and gnome
[05:51] <warace> this is a total noob question but does anyone know where I can change the power output to my wifi card i just got an alfa 1000mw card if I am correct it is the TxPower
[05:51] <Vin73> abhi_nav: Under Advanced menu, I can see External Poiniting Device, Legacy USB support and Print Port Mode
[05:51] <tonsofpcs> >> ok, i just got out of dep-hell.  Do I distupgrade and then reinstall X aand gdm and gnome and all thatt or do i reinstall them then distupgrade?
[05:51] <mneptok> tonsofpcs: and that's exactly what i answered.
[05:51] <Vin73> abhi_nav, WellDone: that's all....nothing else
[05:51] <tonsofpcs> no it isn't
[05:52] <mneptok> yes, it is.
[05:52] <abhi_nav> Vin73, there are this options also there onboard pata/sata adapters
[05:52] <tonsofpcs> you first assumed i wanted ubuntu-desktop
[05:52] <abhi_nav> Vin73, :(
[05:52] <tonsofpcs> you also assumed my repo cache was out of date
[05:52] <Vin73> abhi_nav: looks like this enabling option is not provided in my bios
[05:52] <terry> tonsofpcs: You can probably do: apt-get install xorg
[05:52] <mneptok> tonsofpcs: the "all that" line and saying "i want a working system" sort of implies you want Ubuntu back the way it ships.
[05:52] <tonsofpcs> then you told me to upgrade all my packages which I just noted that I am doing now
[05:53] <terry> tonsofpcs: or sudo aptitude install xorg
[05:53] <warace> anyoine ever tried installing ubuntu on a UMPC?
[05:53] <prash> Vin73,  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/casper/+bug/539027 - not sure if it is related.
[05:53] <abhi_nav> Vin73, ok . then might me another issue. dont know. ok if your laptop in warranty then call center wll tell you how to do this
[05:53] <Vin73> prash: ok let me have a look
[05:53] <tonsofpcs> mneptok: right, and this shipped with ubuntustudio-desktop not ubuntu-desktop :)
[05:53] <tonsofpcs> [yes, this was installed with the ubuntustudio feisty CD]
[05:54] <warace> looking to buy one not sure what to invest in
[05:54] <mneptok> tonsofpcs: well, do i need to edit the line i gave you or are you clever enough to figure it out yourself?
[05:54] <Vin73> abhi_nav: no luck there as well....this is an old laptop which I am using as part of my research...it belongs to the institution
[05:54] <tonsofpcs> mneptok: I'm looking for a direct answer to the question I asked, not someone to try interpreting it as something completely unrelated
[05:54] <mneptok> tonsofpcs: so seek advice elsewhere. i'm done.
[05:54] <abhi_nav> Vin73, ohh. then dont know. you search for bug  if it is an bug or what.
[05:55] <bastidrazor> tonsofpcs: you are clearly too smart for this channel to help you.
[05:55] <tonsofpcs> also, if i'm installing then distupgrading, i'm making it work before i distupgrade otherwise i'm looking at more dephell
[05:55] <tonsofpcs> bastidrazor: apparently
[05:55] <tertl3> tonsofpcs, what is the question
[05:55] <Dr_Willis> 8 ball says : answer hazy
[05:55] <tonsofpcs> >> ok, i just got out of dep-hell.  Do I distupgrade and then reinstall X aand gdm and gnome and all thatt or do i reinstall them then distupgrade?
[05:55] <tertl3> tonsofpcs, didi it ship with rt kernel?
[05:55] <tonsofpcs> tertl3: yes.
[05:56] <tertl3> tonsofpcs, you dont like the studio additions?
[05:56] <tonsofpcs> it is running -rt right now, it also has -generic and one other variant installed
[05:56] <Vin73> abhi_nav: I am not sure how to proceed now...I had banked on getting a solution from this channel...I had assumed that someone would have faced this before
[05:56] <mneptok> tonsofpcs: BTW. Ubuntu Studio is not an official Ubuntu derivative, so we do not support it here.
[05:56] <tertl3> tonsofpcs, do you play guitar?
[05:56] <Dr_Willis> Ive  always heard to reinstall 'whatever-desktop' befor doing the dist upgrades.
[05:56] <thune3> warace: there may be a better way but: assuming device is wlan0 "iwlist wlan0 txpower" will show you available powers and "iwconfig wlan0 txpower <setting>" should apply changes.
[05:56] <Vin73> abhi_nav: as you can see, I am relatively new to Ubuntu
[05:56] <tonsofpcs> mneptok: actually, ubuntustudio was added to the official repos in hardy.
[05:56] <abhi_nav> Vin73, you get more info in bug reporting
[05:56] <tertl3> tonsofpcs, try #opensourcemusicians
[05:57] <tonsofpcs> tertl3: i'm fine with #video , thanks.
[05:57] <prash> Vin73, do you have any older ubuntu distros that you could try?
[05:57] <Vin73> abhi_nav: are you suggesting that I should raise a bug?
[05:57] <tertl3> theok
[05:57] <prince_jammys> "open source musicians", what a strange concept.
[05:57] <abhi_nav> Vin73, first search for bugs. if not found then submit a bug
[05:57] <tertl3> you use it for video?
[05:58] <tertl3> prince_jammys, i agree, the two things are unrelated
[05:58] <Vin73> prash: I do not have...but if I can download the previous or one of the previous versions....I could try with that
[05:58] <Vin73> abhi_nav: ok
[05:58]  * prince_jammys starts #open-source-pastry-chefs
[05:58] <prash> Vin73, does the laptop support usb booting?
[05:58] <tertl3> nonetheless there are people who fit both categories
[05:58] <tonsofpcs> tertl3: I use it to test video apps
[05:58] <tertl3> cool
[05:58] <tertl3> tonsofpcs, what is the question?
[05:58] <tonsofpcs> and test ubuntu's broken shipped package of VLC....
[05:58] <abhi_nav> Vin73, also try updating your bios software. hp proviedes it update
[05:58] <pooky> when using gnome, can anyone suggest a good tiling wm replacement for metacity?
[05:58] <tonsofpcs> >> ok, i just got out of dep-hell.  Do I distupgrade and then reinstall X aand gdm and gnome and all thatt or do i reinstall them then distupgrade?
[05:59] <Vin73> prash: no
[05:59] <pooky> I'm using awesome at the moment, but I keep having weird systray issues
[05:59] <Vin73> prash: only CD ROM
[05:59] <tertl3> what is dep-hell?
[05:59] <tonsofpcs> dependency hell
[05:59] <Vin73> abhi_nav: ok...
[05:59] <prince_jammys> tonsofpcs: why do you have to reinstall that stuff at all?
[05:59] <tertl3> tonsofpcs, I am not familiar with that package
[05:59] <tonsofpcs> when you have things trying to install or remove and they won't due to dependency issues but they lock your system because they're trying to install/uninstall
[05:59] <tonsofpcs> (you can't do anything else until they're fixed)
[05:59] <abhi_nav> how to install thunderbir? i dwonloaed .tar.gz and extracted it now what next?
[06:00] <tonsofpcs> prince_jammys: dep-hell.
[06:00] <mneptok> abhi_nav: sudo apt-get install thunderbird
[06:00] <prince_jammys> abhi_nav: install it from the repositories, using apt.
[06:00] <tertl3> tonsofpcs, ubuntu doesnt really have that problem
[06:00] <abhi_nav> mnemon, prince_jammys i downloaded latest version. is latest 3.1 available in apt-get?
[06:00] <Dr_Willis> I would reinstall the apps, then do the dist-upgrade - thats how ive heard its supposed to be done.
[06:00] <tertl3> fedora is another story :)
[06:00] <tonsofpcs> tertl3: tell that to my machine here :)
[06:00] <prash> Vin73, I'd say try karmic. good luck with it.
[06:01] <prince_jammys> abhi_nav: if you build your own, you should follow whatever directions they provide.
[06:01] <tonsofpcs> apt crashed on isntalling a python package about a year and a half ago, i haven't used the system since then due to the issues
[06:01] <tertl3> tonsofpcs, it could be the studio ppa
[06:01] <abhi_nav> prince_jammys, i dotn build. i just downloaded. tar.gz now i dont now what to do next
[06:01] <prince_jammys> abhi_nav: consider installing it from repositories before you venture into this.
[06:01] <abhi_nav> can i check if a software i want to instal which version of it is available with apt-get?
[06:01] <prince_jammys> yes
[06:01] <abhi_nav> prince_jammys, i want latest
[06:02] <tonsofpcs> tertl3: no, it was a standard package that crashed during install due to a server update coincidental with the install
[06:02] <rww> abhi_nav: apt-cache policy packagenamehere
[06:02] <abhi_nav> rww, ok
[06:02] <tertl3> tonsofpcs, idk
[06:02] <tonsofpcs> (or a cron job interfering, it's really not clear)
[06:02] <tonsofpcs> anyway, that's fixed now
[06:02] <tertl3> tonsofpcs, give it a few days and then google it
[06:02] <tonsofpcs> tertl3: it happened a year and a half ago.
[06:03] <ghoti> Are HDMI/DVI-D cables bidirectional?  That is, if I have a cable that was used to take DVI output from a computer to send to an HDMI-capable monitor, can I use the same cable to connect a Beagleboard to a DVI screen?
[06:03] <tertl3> tonsofpcs, do what I did, install Fedora 13
[06:04] <rww> !ot | ghoti
[06:04] <Vin73> prash: ok...is that another version of Ubuntu?
[06:04] <abhi_nav> m back!!! ;)
[06:04] <ghoti> sigh
[06:04] <prash> Vin73, just the previous one (9.10)
[06:04] <abhi_nav> Vin73, previous release of ubuntu. lucid is latest
[06:04] <Vin73> abhi_nav, prash: thanks....
[06:04] <ghoti> Let's say I'm running ubuntu on my Beagleboard, and I'd like to get its output showing on a DVI-capable monitor...
[06:05] <Smooch> !ot |  smooch
[06:05] <prash> Vin73, sorry couldn't be of much help
[06:06] <Vin73> prash: that's OK....I guess nobody has faced this issue before....thanks for your time
[06:06] <Vin73> abhi_nav: thanks for your time
[06:06] <abhi_nav> oh yah Vin73 :)
[06:07] <warace> well the crapy alfa card said it would do 1000mw and it wont let me set more the 501mw heh
[06:08] <warace> feel shammed now
[06:10] <afroman> has anybody been able to enable multi touch gestures on an Alps Touchpad?
[06:10] <thune3> warace: i think recieve sensitivity decreases when you increase output power. 100mW for transmit power is huge. 10-20 would be typical. Unless you are trying to go 1000 meters, you have plenty of power.
[06:12] <warace> hmmm I am trying to increase the card to recieve a better signal from my brothers room which is all the way in the other side of the house a bit far
[06:14] <warace> recieving now but the card works better in windows with the driver the factory provided
[06:15] <thune3> warace: maybe also play with the iwconfig "sens" variable, change channels, and consider setting frag to 512.
[06:16] <warace> tried all channels on router he is on the cleanest one
[06:16] <warace> hmm i am guessing sens is for sensitivity
[06:17] <afallenhope> hey is there a way of stopping this blinking wifi thing..
[06:18] <prash> afallenhope, is that a dell.  BTW did dual boot work?
[06:18] <thune3> warace: reading up on it i'm not sure 'sens' really does anything anymore
[06:19] <abhi_nav> afallenhope, blinking 'wifi'?
[06:19] <warace> thune3 thanks
[06:19] <Smooch> afallenhope: did it install?
[06:19] <afallenhope> prash,  worked beautifully! helps when you try and boot into Windows and not the recovery ram drive.. and abhi_nav  yes prash  it's a HP dv7
[06:20] <Pondera> hey how do i enable shmconfig?
[06:20] <warace> I think I will buy a higher dBi antena
[06:20] <thune3> warace: if you are just surfing and stuff, wireless-b band tends to have better range (11M and less in rate setting)
[06:20] <abhi_nav> afallenhope, it blinks when there is data transmission. nothing odd in it
[06:21] <Random832> Pondera: were you told you needed to do that to configure your touchpad?
[06:21] <afallenhope> abhi_nav,  yeah but it's kinda annoying
[06:21] <ats> #python
[06:21] <abhi_nav> afallenhope, i like that ;)
[06:21] <afallenhope> abhi_nav, that's great but it should have an option to disable
[06:21] <warace> hmmmm just moved the antena and the strength went up quite a bit
[06:21] <abhi_nav> afallenhope, hmm
[06:21] <Pondera> no here but i figued thats why multi touch wasnt working random832
[06:22] <ats> hello can anybody help me out here in google authentication
[06:22] <warace> thune3 I guess this will do good enough heh
[06:22] <ats> hello can anybody help me out here in google authentication?
[06:22] <prince_jammys> ats: explain.
[06:22] <prash> afallenhope, Try this: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/rtcvrn6L
[06:22] <ats> prince_jammys, I want to authenticate my websites to google
[06:22] <Random832> what tool are you using to try to set it up
[06:23] <Random832> see what settings xinput lets you set
[06:23] <prince_jammys> ats: seems outside of the realm of this channel
[06:23] <Pondera> the default one ii gues
[06:23] <prince_jammys> ats: surely google must provide some docs for this. and a way to search for them ;)
[06:24] <Pondera> only thing ive been able to do is 2 finger rightclick
[06:24] <raddy> Hello Everybody
[06:24] <ats> prince_jammys, Yes, I tried AOuth, But i could not get the results i wanted
[06:24] <raddy> I want to download some big stuff via git.
[06:25] <raddy> Is there a good GUI client to download stuff from git?
[06:25] <shafi> can't access my yahoo and facebook accounts from my workplace, how can I resolve this problem?
[06:25] <Roasted> at one point on my laptop, I had a monitor connected to it with dual screen. I no longer have the monitor connected, yet about 50% of the time I boot up, it still thinks its connected cause windows often launch on that window. Its an intel card. What can I do? It gets VERY old booting up to find my login screen is gone because its on the 2nd monitor that doesnt exist.
[06:25] <Random832> Pondera: what are you trying to do?
[06:25] <baltazor> hello, who update compiz to 0.9 on ubuntu 10.04?
[06:25] <abhi_nav> raddy, what is git?
[06:26] <afallenhope> prash, didn't work
[06:26] <raddy> abhi_nav: Do you know what is svn?
[06:26] <user1_> ikonia : u there?
[06:26] <abhi_nav> no
[06:26] <ats> prince_jammys, Yes, I tried AOuth, But i could not get the results i wanted
[06:26] <baltazor> ?
[06:26] <prash> afallenhope, sorry.  Then remove the file "sudo rm /etc/network/if-up.d/myStopBlink"
[06:26] <Dr_Willis> shafi:  learn how to setup ssh tunnles to your home pc.
[06:26] <ats> can anyone tell me where can i get a sample code for google authentication of a websites
[06:26] <Dr_Willis> shafi:  and hope you dont get fired.
[06:26] <baltazor> hello, who update compiz to 0.9 on ubuntu 10.04?
[06:27] <Dr_Willis> baltazor:  there might be a compiz PPA that has newer versions. that would be the easy route
[06:27] <prince_jammys> ats: i don't know the solution, but this channel is unlikely the place to get an answer.
[06:27] <pooky> Anyone have experience using a tiling wm with gnome? I'm trying awesome but I'm having issues with getting my systray to work properly
[06:27] <ats> ok
[06:27] <shafi> Dr_Willis, haha, I have open-ssh on my home pc, what to do next?
[06:27] <afallenhope> They should have just put a setting that allowed you to enable / disable it
[06:27] <user1_> can someone help me with usb 3.0 partition? lucid seems to fail with 256gb pen drives
[06:28] <ats> quit
[06:28] <afallenhope> it's really annoying and from my understandign can burn out the LED
[06:28] <baltazor> Dr_Willis: what is PPA where is compiz 0.9
[06:28] <user1_> spent almost a night with gruelling pain all over
[06:28] <Roasted> no laptop video experts here?
[06:28] <Dr_Willis> !ppa | baltazor
[06:28] <raddy> Can anybody help me?
[06:29] <Dr_Willis> shafi:  read up on 'ssh tunnles' and set one up.
[06:29] <abhi_nav> afallenhope, partition using livecd?
[06:29] <shafi> Dr_Willis, ok, tnx
[06:29] <mikeds> does ssh tunnel allow you to see a GUI?
[06:29] <Dr_Willis> mikeds:  it routes teh connection, so the local apps can use it for the network connection.
[06:29] <afallenhope> abhi_nav, huh? i did yeah.. everything worked now it's the stupid LED thing I'm trying to stop
[06:29] <Dr_Willis> mikeds:  Or you can ssh to a remote. run an app. and have it appear locally. If you set it up right
[06:30] <afroman> Roasted: not an expert, but I have had a few issues myself
[06:30] <abhi_nav> afallenhope, that wifi blinking led?
[06:30] <user1_> Dr_Willis: how do we find a solution to usb which partitions but doesnt retain data when unmounted
[06:30] <afroman> Roasted: what do U need?
[06:30] <afallenhope> abhi_nav, yes
[06:30] <Roasted> afroman,
[06:30] <Roasted> at one point on my laptop, I had a monitor connected to it with dual screen. I no longer have the monitor connected, yet about 50% of the time I boot up, it still thinks its connected cause windows often launch on that window. Its an intel card. What can I do? It gets VERY old booting up to find my login screen is gone because its on the 2nd monitor that doesnt exist.
[06:30] <abhi_nav> oh no sorry afallenhope i want to answer user1_
[06:30] <abhi_nav> user1_, try partitioning from live cd?
[06:31] <mikeds> Roasted: I guess the Function key was not the issue?
[06:31] <baltazor> Dr_Willis: not found :(
[06:31] <Dr_Willis> user1_:  could be hardware related. Is this a USB flash drive or a usb hard drive?
[06:31] <abhi_nav> afallenhope, and for yor blinking led i dont know solution but i know that it will not burn your led.
[06:32] <Roasted> mikeds, well sometimes I boot and its 1 screen, but not the right resolution. that key doesnt fix the resolution on the fly. :(
[06:32] <ilhuicamina> Hello, i'm new using ubuntu, i installed it yesterday but, i think i have a bug....could someone help me?
[06:32] <user1_> abhi_nav : no live cds. i did partition from gparted on my lucid. it went through fine . i created a fat32 parition. then i mounted it and wrote some data. ejected and data is gone when mounted again
[06:32] <Dr_Willis> baltazor:  i got a hit when i googled for 'compiz ppa'
[06:32] <afroman> Roasted: did U try sys-->pref-->monitors
[06:32] <user1_> Dr_Willis: it is a kingston 256gb usb drive
[06:32] <Roasted> afroman, yes. But when I reboot, sometimes it doesnt hold the settings.
[06:32] <Roasted> Sometimes it does, other times it doesnt.
[06:32] <Loshki> afallenhope: just stick a bit of tape over it...
[06:33] <abhi_nav> user1_, in last month when i do very same thung as u gparted destroyed my pen drive. now it cant be detected
[06:33] <afroman> Roasted: it should hold the settings
[06:33] <devzero> hi i want to know if ubuntu netbook work with the wireless card Atheros AR5007EG chipset AR2425 without wifimad or ndiswrapper
[06:33] <Dr_Willis> user1_:  take hd out of usb enclosure. try it on  a sata/ide connection and see if it still has same issue. It very well could be the hd is going bad.
[06:33] <abhi_nav> user1_, mine also same lucid
[06:33] <Roasted> afroman, it does not. Most of the time it does, but I sat here and rebooted 5 times and bingo - didnt hold the settings
[06:33] <afroman> Roasted: did U press apply?
[06:33] <Roasted> afroman, came back with 1024x768 resolution when native is 1280x800
[06:33] <Roasted> afroman, of course. :P
[06:33] <Roasted> afroman, I hit apply and just kept rebooting
[06:34] <Dr_Willis> user1_:  unless you are meaning its a 256gb FLASH drive? thats a big big. :)
[06:34] <Roasted> it was fine.b ut then one time it came back with 1024x768. Had no idea why.
[06:34] <ilhuicamina> i have a problem with the go-home-applet
[06:34] <Roasted> its been doing this... not sure how to fix it.
[06:34] <user1_> Dr_Willis: its a flash drive. not a enclosure
[06:34] <Roasted> it started on 9.10, but I formatted and put 10.04 on it about 3 days ago. I have my partitions separate (home and root are separate) and I formatted root, but kept my home directory in tact.
[06:34] <Roasted> yet it STILL happens. even tho I formatted root.
[06:34] <afroman> Roasted: coz I know that just by going to pref-->monitors the settings usual adjust themselves automatically
[06:34] <Roasted> no idea why
[06:34] <user1_> Dr_Willis: that's the problem. but it's detected and everything is fine. the OS is not supporting it if i am not wrong
[06:34] <Dr_Willis> user1_:  i dident even realize they made them 256 GB in size..
[06:34] <Pondera> ok is there a program for photos where its like a "tabletop" and i can manipulate the pictures like zoom with to finger, toss them to the side and move them around all using my touch pad ?
[06:35] <Dr_Willis> user1_:  thats possible.. but ive never seen/tried any that large.
[06:35] <Roasted> afroman, if it thinks Im in dual monitor mode (which I can tell by sliding the mouse over ot the far right, itll just keep going). and I go to sys pref monitors, it fixes itself right away.
[06:35] <devzero> hi i want to know if ubuntu netbook work with the wireless card Atheros AR5007EG chipset AR2425 without wifimad or ndiswrapper
[06:35] <user1_> Dr_Willis: the directory size is 16kb and not normal 4kb
[06:35] <Dr_Willis> user1_:  try making a small partition at the front. try some 'other' os to partition it perhaps?
[06:35] <Roasted> afroman, BUT, sometimes it gives me 1024x768 resolution when I use 1280x800.
[06:35] <devzero> ?
[06:35] <devzero> is an aspire one
[06:35] <Roasted> afroman, that doesnt fix instantly. I have to re-set that.
[06:35] <Roasted> afroman, then of course it screws up my arrangement of things in the upper right corner of the panel.
[06:35] <Roasted> afroman, total pain... and shouldnt be that way... just trying to figure out if theres a fix.
[06:36] <Dr_Willis> devzero:  most parts in netbooks are decently well supported.  - whats the specific # of aspire one? theres several out now.
[06:36] <afroman> Roasted: did U try to fix it throu xorg?
[06:36] <Dr_Willis> devzero:  for my Older AAO. it works  out of the box.
[06:36] <user1_> Dr_Willis: did all kinds of experiments. the problem is it writes and when re mounted it says the used space is that much but contents are empty
[06:36] <etyrnal> is there a way to change the step duration of Particle emission?
[06:36] <devzero> and old AOA110
[06:36] <etyrnal> (2.49a)
[06:36] <Roasted> afroman, I dont have a xorg.conf.
[06:36] <Roasted> afroman, I was told I didnt need a xorg.conf and the fact I dont have one means xorg.conf isnt the issue.
[06:37] <Dr_Willis> devzero:  mine is about a year and a half old now - no issues with it.  You could always test with a flash drive and the netbook edition
[06:37] <Pondera> ok is there a program for photos where its like a "tabletop" and i can manipulate the pictures like zoom with to finger, toss them to the side and move them around all using my touch pad ?
[06:37] <afroman> Roasted: which one do U have?
[06:37] <ilhuicamina> i really need help here, could someone help me?
[06:37] <Roasted> afroman, which what? graphics card? An intel.
[06:37] <Dr_Willis> !ask | ilhuicamina
[06:37] <afroman> if it's not xorg, which do U use instead?
[06:38] <Roasted> afroman, I never set anything up. I just installed ubuntu 10.04 and everything worked. I didnt install any video drivers - none were available. I assume theyre integrated in the kernel since its an intel and intel is pretty awesome with drivers.
[06:39] <devzero> so, just try live mode in ubuntu netbook if it work? // if it have to install the driver with madwifi or ndiswrapper what can i do if i havent a cable internet conexion?
[06:40] <Dr_Willis> devzero:  i alwyas plug in a cable. :)
[06:40] <ilhuicamina> oh, sorry....you see...i have a problem but i don't know what is causing it, when i turn my computer on, and i try to open any apply...it umm minimizes, and send me to home
[06:40] <afroman> Roasted: try in a terminal "gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf" and tell me what U see
[06:40] <devzero> i havent
[06:40] <Dr_Willis> devzero:  i havbe 1 laptop out of 4 that ive had to use a cable to get the drivers.
[06:40] <Roasted> afroman, I did that earlier - its blank
[06:40] <Roasted> afroman, I CD'd into /etc/X11 and xorg.conf didnt exist.
[06:40] <Dr_Willis> devzero:  if not . then theres a little bit of work involved.
[06:40] <Roasted> I'm telling you - I do not have a xorg file. I just don't.
[06:40] <Dr_Willis> devzero:  i found it easier to find a cable/connection.
[06:41] <devzero> jajaja
[06:41] <Dr_Willis> devzero:  but with my AAO's ive never had to do that
[06:41] <devzero> but if i add on a usb pen, the drivers and midwifi
[06:41] <alex87> i'm looking for an online ticketing system that handles some sort of workflow (osticket does not), any ideas?
[06:41] <devzero> but i have problems for compile it
[06:42] <devzero> to install the headers and others...
[06:42] <Dr_Willis> devzero:  ive not had to ever 'compile' the wireless drivers.   Ive heard of others just having to download the proper .debs and moving them over/installing. but never compiling
[06:43] <devzero> no no no for the drivers to compile the wifimad app to install driver
[06:44] <Pondera> ok is there a program for photos where its like a "tabletop" and i can manipulate the pictures like zoom with to finger, toss them to the side and move them around all using my touch pad ?
[06:44] <Dr_Willis> devzero:  no idea.  You are getting ahead of yourself. its possible you wont need to do any of that . try a netbook cd/usb and see if it works.
[06:44] <abhi_nav> fspot?
[06:44] <devzero> ok
[06:45] <afroman> Roasted: xorg isn't a driver
[06:45] <devzero> if didnt work i come back here
[06:45] <devzero> xD
[06:45] <Roasted> afroman, I know.
[06:45] <Roasted> afroman, but its not like my desktop where I have an nvidia driver to install via hardware drivers.
[06:45] <Roasted> afroman, I did not install a driver, and I do not have a xorg file. period.
[06:45] <abhi_nav> Pondera, fspot?
[06:45] <afroman> Roasted: I got that
[06:46] <Pondera> f spot has a table top like feature abhi_nav
[06:46] <afroman> but U also need to understand that if U don't have xorg U must have another otherwise U would have an image
[06:46] <afroman> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X_Window_System
[06:47] <afroman> there are several types of X window system
[06:47] <abhi_nav> Pondera, dunno. but it is nice software!
[06:47] <abhi_nav> Pondera, check their features
[06:51] <afroman> Roasted: I did say I wasn't an expert, if U had xorg I could help U more but now...
[06:51] <afroman> sorry
[06:51] <Roasted> afroman, yeah, not sure man. I thought I should have one, but others said its not a big deal if I dont have oen *shrug*
[06:51] <Roasted> afroman, I guess it has something to do with me having an intel, since intel seems to have stuff integrated in the kernel since their drivers are typocally open source.
[06:52] <shauno> Roasted: xorg.conf used to be mandatory (it's the config file afterall).  it isn't anymore.  xorg will use it if it's there, or default to autodetect if it's not
[06:52] <user1_> which parition table should i create in my usb flash  drive. if i install msdos it will recognize only fat32 filesystem
[06:52] <shauno> so whether you have it or not, neither's 'wrong'
[06:54] <Dr_Willis> user1_:  basically thats the only partition table ive ever used.
[06:54] <Dr_Willis> user1_:  you may be able to use a differnt filesystem if you use fdisk instead of gparted (if thats what yiou are using)
[06:54] <afroman> shauno: so now how should Roasted proceed?
[06:55] <Roasted> yeah. it gets very old having to "reset" everything after a fresh reboot
[06:55] <Roasted> doesnt happen every time, but enough to make me go wtf?
[06:55] <SailorReality> what do you people think of Linux Mint?
[06:55] <Roasted> I like linux mint, but its so close to ubuntu, I have no idea why it really exists.
[06:55] <Roasted> however, theres a channel for mint discussion.
[06:55] <SailorReality> whatis it
[06:56] <Roasted> its a distro based on ubuntu
[06:56] <user1_> Dr_Willis: ok. but will i have to have a boot flag for one of partitions on flash drive so that it recognize others. and also a OS there!! this seems quite a research!
[06:56] <abhi_nav> !mint > SailorReality
[06:56] <shauno> afroman: (and Roasted,) if autodetect isn't doing what you want, it's probably time to switch to using an xorg.conf
[06:56] <SailorReality> i just installed it becuase my screen kept on fucking up in ubuntu i hope it doesnt happen
[06:56] <Roasted> shauno, how can I generate a xorg file
[06:56] <abhi_nav> SailorReality, take that to mint channel
[06:56] <abhi_nav> !language > SailorReality
[06:56] <SailorReality> k thanks
[06:56] <Roasted> G rated here man :P
[06:57] <Roasted> been banned several times for letting it slip
[06:57] <SailorReality> lol
[06:57] <shauno> Roasted: not entirely sure. it's been a while since I've used linux on a desktop.  personally, I'd start by looking to see if there's an example under /usr/share/doc somewhere
[06:58] <afroman> shauno: speaking of xorg, U wouldn't happen to know how to enable multi touch gesture on an alps touchpad?
[06:58] <shauno> Roasted: apparently xorg takes a -configure option that'll spit on out based on what it's autodetected so far
[06:59] <shauno> afroman: no idea.  use linux on servers, not laptops, sorry
[07:01] <afroman> shauno: cool. thx anyway
[07:03] <delfis> hello, how to change mac for ever? :)
[07:04] <Roasted> lol
[07:04] <Roasted> I googled and found the command to start a new xorg file
[07:04] <Roasted> evidently a server is already active
[07:04] <Roasted> too bad a xorg file doesnt exist
[07:05] <prince_jammys> you may use X -configure  for this
[07:06] <Roasted> ah wait
[07:06] <Roasted> I found another guide that says I needed to CTRL ALT F1 at login screen, stop GDM, then run the command
[07:06] <Roasted> I ran it just in regular mode and got the error
[07:07] <Roasted> yeahhh I got a xorg.conf now. gonna reboot like 10 times and see what happens :P
[07:07] <prince_jammys> good luck
[07:08] <Roasted> NOOOOOOO
[07:08] <ivano> #ubuntu-it
[07:08] <Roasted> I rebooted ONE time and my resolution showed up borked
[07:08] <Roasted> Wow
[07:09] <Roasted> Come on, Ubuntu. Fricken work.
[07:09] <Dr_Willis> delfis:  you have to put some command to set the mac in some startup file i imagine. You dont reflash the network card to change the mac.
[07:09] <FloodBot1> Roasted: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[07:09] <delfis> hmm
[07:09] <delfis> networs file or something
[07:09] <delfis> as i remember was good
[07:09] <prince_jammys> delfis: you're not doing something evil, are you?
[07:09] <delfis> choice for me
[07:09] <delfis> no, my network needs specific mac
[07:10] <prince_jammys> ah
[07:11] <Dr_Willis> theres some of the various if??? commands  that can set teh mac.
[07:12] <Dr_Willis> but ive not had to do that in years
[07:12] <Roasted> however, once I ALT F8'd (my laptop hot key to switch the monitor) it DID bring back my resolution AND placed my icons properly... thats a +1 I didnt see before.
[07:12] <Dr_Willis> Or one can google for 'change mac ubuntu' and get a good hit as #1 --> http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubuntu/change-your-network-card-mac-address-on-ubuntu/
[07:12] <Roasted> however, I just rebooted again, and I have no login screen. Why dont I have a login screen? Because it is on the 2nd monitor THAT DOESNT EXIST
[07:12] <Dr_Willis> Roasted:  what was the chipset anyway?
[07:13] <Roasted> an intel. sec. logging in
[07:13] <Roasted> Ill lspci it
[07:13] <Roasted> pretty sure its a GMA4500 I think??
[07:13] <Dr_Willis> Ah intel. Hmm. This is a laptop?  or a desktop with 2 video cards?
[07:13] <robertzaccour> when i use recordMyDesktop to record screencasts with cheese open I notice that the audio seems fine during the recording, but is behind afterwards. is there a way to fix it?
[07:13] <Roasted> laptop
[07:14] <Dr_Willis> Roasted:  there is those special fn-XXX keys on laptops that toggle the external/lcd/ monitors. I had one weird laptop that would default o the external. Untill I hit those keys and set it to use the LCD. and only had to do that ONCE. after that  it worked fine :)
[07:14] <Roasted> Dr_Willis, Ill keep that in mind. Hopefully its all I have to do.
[07:15] <Vin73> hi, can someone tell me where can I find instructions on the old version of grub for Ubuntu (grub legacy)
[07:15] <Roasted> Dr_Willis, my big pet peeve before was  sometimes it wouldnt hit the right resolution. It would default to a lower resolution. So when I finally got the resolution reset, it would change the arrangement and palcement of my icons in the upper right corner.
[07:15] <IdleOne> !grub | Vin73
[07:15] <Dr_Willis> Roasted:  i thought display was borked.. but i heard the startup sounds.. so it had me confused for a long time.. THEN as a lark. i was going to hook up a external.. and  i plugged it in. but never plugged in the power to the external. :)  hit thise keys trying to get it enabled.. and the lcd started working
[07:15] <Dr_Willis> Roasted:  ages ago I had a Video card default to the TV out...
[07:15] <Roasted> Dr_Willis, I dont have ab ottom panel, I use docky, so I put the items in my bottom panel at the top panel, so I have more going on in my top panel than normal. As a result, I like things organized in a certain order. wifi icon, sound, battery, clock, show desktop, workspaces, etc.
[07:15] <prince_jammys> Vin73: if you still have it installed, you may also consult the manual for details.
[07:16] <Roasted> Dr_Willis, so it was just a PITA to reset everything because my laptop didnt find the right resolution. ya know?
[07:16] <Roasted> Dr_Willis, but since creating the xorg file, when I ALT F8, it finds the placement of icons just fine - which is weird...
[07:16] <Dr_Willis> gnome is annoying in how it likes to rearange things
[07:17] <Dr_Willis> ive gotten where i remove most things from my panels. :) and dont use docks much either
[07:17] <Roasted> I dont have a problem with gnome re-arranging it, per se. It only happens when the resolution si borked.
[07:17] <Roasted> It resets them based on the new resolution.
[07:17] <Roasted> so I reset it and it screws up.
[07:18] <Dr_Willis> that is gnome rearangeing them. :) then not rearangeing them back
[07:18] <Dr_Willis> I was suprised at how well my Netbook handled an external monitor.
[07:18] <Roasted> Dr_Willis, it rearranges fine w/ xorg being existent, though
[07:19] <Roasted> Dr_Willis, I hope what you said is the same in my case
[07:19] <Dr_Willis> again. i had to twiddle with the settings and the fn-KKeys the first time.. but after that if i reboot with monitor in. it uses it.. if not - it uses the laptops lcd.
[07:19] <Roasted> where hitting the key combo 1 time "sets in stone" that setting to my laptop
[07:19] <Roasted> Dr_Willis, I dont use laptops much - Im a desktop guy. I ALWAYS forget those keys exist - yet I work in IT. How lame?
[07:19] <Dr_Willis> Roasted:  i think it very much deopends on the chipset. Ive seen them default to internal, external, and in one case. tv out. :)
[07:20] <Roasted> Dr_Willis, but in each instance, once you "set" it, did it default to that setting?
[07:20] <Dr_Willis> Roasted:  theres been a dozen people in here we have had to 'explain' those keys to - over the years. :)
[07:20] <Dr_Willis> Roasted:  it seemed to rember.
[07:20] <Dr_Willis> this is with  4+ different pc's and laptops. :)
[07:20] <Dr_Willis> Roasted:  on an nvidia desktop system. it VERY mich depends on the exact chipset/video card.
[07:22] <Roasted> Dr_Willis, well in my experience, desktops dont tend to change much. For me, I travel w/ a laptop, but I like to dual screen when I'm at my desk at work, which is like twice a week.
[07:22] <Roasted> so I bounce through monitors now and then at work, whereas at home I have the same old 2 monitors connected since day 1
[07:22] <Roasted> Dr_Willis, those FN key combos are saved @ BIOS level, right?
[07:24] <ilhuicamina> Yesterday, my go-home-applet went wrong, it didn't worked anymore. When i restarted my laptop everytime i tried to open a application it send me back to the home page...and it does the same everytime i restart my computer...sometimes i can't make it stop. Do you know what can i do to repair it?
[07:25] <Roasted> oh no
[07:25] <Roasted> Dr_Willis
[07:25] <ikonia> user1_: did you want me
[07:26] <Roasted> just booted up, login screen isnt there. must be on "2nd montitor"
[07:26] <user1_> ikonia: yes. same problem
[07:26] <ikonia> user1_: same problem ?? what problem
[07:26] <user1_> ikonia:  even after creating usb partition
[07:26] <user1_> ikonia:  256gb usb flash drive
[07:26] <ikonia> user1_: please pastebin the output of "sudo fdisk -l "
[07:26] <Roasted> I hit ALT F8 twice, it fixed it, and I logged in - but of COURSE I have 1024x768 resolution
[07:27] <Roasted> come the fk on ubuntu
[07:27] <Roasted> work. please. just work.
[07:27] <ikonia> Roasted: control your langauge
[07:27] <Roasted> lol
[07:27] <ikonia> I'm not laughing
[07:27] <Roasted> :)
[07:27] <student_> how do i autohide docky 2.1.0 in karmic?
[07:27] <student_> sorry if this is the wrong channel for this
[07:28] <Roasted> Dr_Willis, any idea?
[07:28] <student_> :/
[07:29] <abhi_nav> student, right click on docky icon there is option?
[07:29] <Tibman> happy 4th everyone!
[07:29] <student_> right click = settings
[07:29] <abhi_nav> hmm
[07:29] <student_> docky settings @ abhi-nav
[07:30] <student_> oh
[07:30] <student_> i see it !
[07:30] <student_> !_!
[07:30] <abhi_nav> !tab > student_
[07:30] <student_> it says hiding = none
[07:30] <maxime_> !fr
[07:30] <Tibman> probably not the best time to ask this, does anyone know how to make hard drives automatically mount at start up?
[07:31] <Dr_Willis> Roasted:  not really. after i got the display working. it worked right after i rebooted then
[07:31] <opsec> i've eaten my own boogars, cum, scabs, tasted my own poop and piss too...
[07:31] <student_> thanks i overlooked the hiding feature
[07:31] <vlt> Tibman: Put a line in /etc/fstab
[07:31] <student_> since it wasn't a check off type thing
[07:31] <abhi_nav> student_ ok
[07:31] <geowany> lol
[07:31] <tasslehoff> the webpage says that 64 bit Ubuntu is "not recommended for daily desktop use". what exactly is it recommended for then? I have a Dell with a 64 bit i7, and think 64 bit sounds good on paper :)
[07:32] <Dr_Willis> tasslehoff:  then use it.
[07:32] <abhi_nav> !64
[07:32] <ilhuicamina> !es
 i have been using ubuntu for 2 days, how do I do that?
[07:32] <Roasted> Dr_Willis, hmm, well no luck here... Its one thing if I just need to FN F8 now and then to get it to reset, but what gets me is there are times even if I do that, it logs in with 1024x768 resolution instead of 1280x800.
[07:32] <Roasted> thats what bohters me
[07:32] <Dr_Willis> tasslehoff:  theres been bug reportsd files to try tio get that page changed
[07:33] <tasslehoff> Dr_Willis, good :)
[07:33] <tasslehoff> thanks
[07:33] <vlt> tasslehoff: I use it every day.
[07:33] <Tibman> tasslehoff: it means that not all applications are currently available for x64, so although it is about 5 or 10% faster than x86, you  may not find all the applications you will use in everyday use
[07:33] <tasslehoff> vlt, and you are happy? :)
[07:34] <vlt> tasslehoff: There's nothing that doesn't work (that would on x86).
[07:34] <abhi_nav> I use 64 lucid. I face no problem. not even of any aps. flash wors good too.
[07:34] <Dr_Willis> I can think of ONE appliction that ive used thats not ported to 64bit. :)
[07:34] <Tibman> vlt, i thought no current version of flash 10.1 was available for x64
[07:34] <abhi_nav> which one?
[07:35] <tasslehoff> Thanks guys. I will go with 64 bit then.
[07:35] <Dr_Willis> abhi_nav:  zsnes - :) but theres other snes emulators that are
[07:35] <abhi_nav> Dr_Willis, ohh ok
[07:35] <mneptok> tasslehoff: be aware, Adobe recently cancelled development of the 64-bit version of the Flash plugin, and pulled all downloads. to use Flash, you need to use the 32 bit version and a plugin wrapper.
[07:35] <Dr_Willis> abhi_nav:  aparently it was written years back with large parts of assembly code. :)
[07:35] <abhi_nav> Tibman, its just closed temporaily they will release official 64 flashs sooon
[07:35] <abhi_nav> Dr_Willis, hmm
[07:35] <vlt> Tibman: flash isn't available at all (it's closed source and binary only)
[07:36] <Dr_Willis> mneptok:  im not sure they actually 'cancled' it - last i check their offical  statement was 'its not cancled.. we just dont want to release any actual plans at this timne'
[07:36] <abhi_nav> nice application!! ;)
[07:36] <Dr_Willis> mneptok:  unless thers been changes in the last 2 weeks that ive not see
[07:36] <mneptok> abhi_nav: Adobe has not released any details about firther Flash x86-64 development, so saying "soon" has no basis in fact
[07:36] <mneptok> *further
[07:37] <abhi_nav> mnemon, they have used that work on that web site. I read it
[07:37] <abhi_nav> word*
[07:37] <mneptok> abhi_nav: so it should be no trouble for you to provide a URL
[07:37] <Tibman> I have only been using ubuntu for 2 days so can anyone explain how to make hard drives automatically mount at start up?
[07:37] <mneptok> !fstab | Tibman
[07:38] <Dr_Willis> tim__b:  2what filesystem is the hard drive in question?
[07:38] <Dr_Willis> Tibman:  2what filesystem is the hard drive in question?
[07:38] <vlt> Tibman: Look at an example line in /etc/fstab. For the <source> field you can choose between a device name (like /dev/sdb1), a UUID (that's a random number assigned when formatting the file system you want to mount) or simly a LABEL (which can be assigned while creating the fs too or later using `tune2fs -L ...`)
[07:38] <Dr_Willis> Tibman:  technically you mount 'filesystems' not drives. :)
[07:38] <Tibman> DR willis: my filesystem is ext3 and the other ntsf
[07:38] <Niglop> how do i delete a user?
[07:39] <abhi_nav> mnemon, cant say. need to check. because i ddnt book mark it becuase its not available. but what I read meaning was or what I understood was = ' thy are not dropping whole 64 bit project they are just closing temporarily becaus ethey are doing major architecture changes in it. after that chagnes they wll release it officialy' let me see if i can find that url
[07:39] <abhi_nav> Niglop, again from users and group only
[07:39] <Tibman> why thank you dr for clearing that up
[07:39] <Niglop> kk ty ;p u still remember :p
[07:39] <mneptok> abhi_nav: i don't doubt that. but tell me where  you get the concept of "soon"
[07:39] <mneptok> abhi_nav: they could release the x86-64 version in 15 years and what you quoted will still be true
[07:40] <Dr_Willis> Tibman:  for ext3 you want a normal fstab entry for them like the examples in fstab. for ntfs. you can try installing/running the ntfs-config tool and it should add the proper entries automatically, and have some check box's for other options
[07:40] <abhi_nav> mneptok, in that case it is 'soon' only because all knw that they will not take 15 years. 1year can be a 'soon' for me and it is ok
[07:40] <Dr_Willis> Tibman:  learning how linux handles filesysmtes/fstab and how ntfs differs.. is worth learning about. :)
[07:40] <abhi_nav> i dont see any problem in 1ysr 'soon'
[07:41] <mneptok> abhi_nav: you do not know that. so please don't say "soon" when the developer has not said "soon"
[07:41] <vlt> Tibman: I prefer using LABEL=... entries because they can be self-descriptive and device names could change when replacing disks or other hardware
[07:41] <abhi_nav> mnemon, then? what should I say? leave 64 os because there is no 64 bit flash?
[07:41] <Dr_Willis> Tibman:  yea. Using Labels like vlt says  makes fstab look a lot neater. but you need to set lables on all the filesystems then.
[07:41] <abhi_nav> mnemon, its common sense. i have that guess from reading their web site. i am trying to find it
[07:41] <mneptok> abhi_nav: say exactly what you put in quotes above.
[07:41] <abhi_nav> ok
[07:42]  * Dr_Willis waits for flash to to the way of java.
[07:42] <Tibman> Dr. Willis, thank you for the pointers. I will read some tutorials.
[07:42] <mneptok> Dr_Willis: Orcale is not going to buy Adobe ;)
[07:42] <mneptok> *Oracle
[07:42] <Tibman> good night everyone
[07:43] <vlt> Tibman: No, you can mix LABEL entries and device entries in fstab (other than Dr_Willis said)
[07:43] <Niglop> why have i got to be root to remove stuff from my external device?
[07:43] <Niglop> lol
[07:43] <vlt> Niglop: Depends on the permissions
[07:43] <Zevs> join #aros
[07:43] <Dr_Willis> mneptok:  give it a year.. and we will see.. soon we will all be using 'realplayer' again i bet! :)
[07:43] <abhi_nav> Niglop, you can change permission and give authority to your standard account to act as admina account
[07:43] <Niglop> i made a new user and copied the exact same home directory over and one is 5g and the other is 12g :s?
[07:44] <vlt> Niglop: How did you copy it?
[07:44] <abhi_nav> mneptok, from my perception of view 1year is come under 'soon' and i tell him in that way. and I wll. I dont see any problem in 1yr
[07:44] <Niglop> through the folders
[07:44] <mneptok> Dr_Willis: Real Networks was the only job interview i actually walked out of.
[07:45] <mneptok> abhi_nav: one last time. Adobe *never* gave a time frame. ever. your "one year" assertion is all in your head.
[07:45] <vlt> Niglop: There are many folders that might be invisible in file browsers. I'd prefer rsync for this taks
[07:45] <Niglop> abhi_nav:  it says i have all privilages, but its not in the group "root" is that why?
[07:45] <vlt> *task
[07:45] <abhi_nav> mnemon, yes in my head
[07:45] <Niglop> vlt what files example please
[07:45] <Niglop> i might not need them
[07:45] <mneptok> abhi_nav: go look at the Wikipedia entry for Duke Nukem Forever
[07:46] <abhi_nav> Niglop, you goto users and groups edit your account there is third tab something called 'adcaned' or like there is second option 'administor the system' select that
[07:46] <vlt> Niglop: In *nix systems file names starting with "." are hidden (if you not explicitely tell your "ls" command to show them)
[07:46] <Niglop> third tab is user privilages
[07:47] <Niglop> vlt i know but what files ?
[07:47] <vlt> Niglop: I don't understand your question.
[07:47] <abhi_nav> mnemon, so you want me to recommend newcomers that' hey atleast 15 years for 64 bit flash. leave your 64bit os right now. go for 32 bit'
[07:47] <abhi_nav> ???????
[07:48] <Niglop> vlt what type of files are the "invisible" ones?
[07:48] <Niglop> abhi_nav:  the third tab is user privilages
[07:48] <vlt> Niglop: Those beginning with a dot
[07:48] <Niglop> i know they are hidden..
[07:48] <Niglop> but are they important?
[07:48] <abhi_nav> Niglop, yes there only select second option 'administrator the system'
[07:48] <Niglop> abhi_nav:  its already checked
[07:48] <abhi_nav> Niglop, :(
[07:49] <vlt> Niglop: Depends on your setup. Programs usually store their whole config in such directories
[07:49] <abhi_nav> mneptok, , so you want me to recommend newcomers that' hey atleast 15 years for 64 bit flash. leave your 64bit os right now. go for 32 bit'
[07:49] <abhi_nav> ;)
[07:49]  * Dr_Willis goes back to CP/M
[07:49] <vlt> Niglop: .kde for example or .gnome ...
[07:49] <Niglop> its okay, i made new config files
[07:49] <ivano> #ubuntu-it
[07:49] <abhi_nav> ivano, /j #ubuntu-it
[07:49] <Niglop> yes thats why i made a new user :p i wanted to start gnome from fresh
[07:49] <Niglop> but thanks
[07:50] <mneptok> abhi_nav: one last time. say what you said in quotes above. nothing more.
[07:50] <abhi_nav> mnemon, :(
[07:50] <vlt> Niglop: I've seen programs like kooka storing all scanned images in a hidden directory ...
[07:50] <Niglop> i dont know what kooka is lol
[07:50] <Niglop> i dont scan
[07:50] <Niglop> abhi_nav:  how can i fix it :p?
[07:51] <abhi_nav> Niglop, what? i was not here? what was the issue?
[07:51] <Niglop> admin thing is already checked
[07:52] <abhi_nav> Niglop, i am confused that, you are talking about your default admin account itself or you want to add power to your standard account? I dont understand that because if problem in admin account itself then i dont know.
[07:53] <Vin73> what does LVDS stand for?
[07:53] <Niglop> i made a new account abhi_nav  and it has all privilages but i still have to sign in as root to edit files on my external device :s?
[07:55] <abhi_nav> Niglop, add it to admin group. actualy I am in now my standars account so cant give you exact details.
[07:55] <shauno> Vin73: not sure the exact letters, but it's a signalling system most commonly used for LCDs
[07:56] <user1_> ikonia : are you here>
[07:56] <Niglop> kk ty abh
[07:56] <ikonia> user1_: yes
[07:56] <Vin73> can someone tell me how to disable kms at boot time?
[07:56] <user1_> ikonia: how do you look at the usb problem?
[07:57] <ikonia> user1_: as I explained to you in pm, I don't wish to help at this time
[07:57] <ikonia> but I can say it in the channel if that helps. "I don't wish to help at this time"
[07:57] <user1_> ikonia: which time is suitable for helping community members
[07:58] <ikonia> user1_: there are plenty of people in the channel who may be available to help
[07:58] <user1_> ikonia: everyone failed . you seem to have some ideas
[07:58] <bazhang> user1_, address the channel, don't target individuals
[07:59] <user1_> bazhang: ok
[08:00] <Vin73> hello?
[08:01] <abhi_nav> what is kms Vin73 ?
[08:02] <Langdon666> hey
[08:02] <abhi_nav> !hi | Langdon666
[08:02] <Langdon666> njjhfig
[08:02] <Langdon666> ??
[08:03] <abhi_nav> Vin73, here they given process to turn on kms. see if you can just revers it to tun it off? http://www.ubuntu-inside.me/2009/06/howto-turn-on-kms-at-ubuntu-jaunty-and.html
[08:07] <preved_medvedik2>  Hi all
[08:09] <user1_> bazhang & ikonia : http://pastebin.com/8kfjFq5G  . this is o/p of fdisk -l
[08:11] <bazhang> user1_, please explain your issue with some greater detail to the channel; if someone knows they will certainly help
[08:13] <sonicbomb77> How do I switch view of mail accounts in evolution if I have multiple accounts setup? I am only able to view the inbox for one account.
[08:13] <user1_> i am unable to retain the data on usb flash drive on remounting it. it is around 256gb . have tried partitioning it as primary, extended and all sizes. but there is some problem which is happening even though used space is shown to be the size of object copied
[08:14] <Dr_Willis> user1_:  just as a 'test' you have tried teh same drive on a windows machine?
[08:15] <user1_> Dr_Willis: on xp yes. not on vista or windows 7. but shouldnt lucid be far better than them?
[08:15] <Dr_Willis> user1_:  no idea. Its a test as i said.
[08:16] <Dr_Willis> user1_:  this is a 256GB USB flash drive right?
[08:16] <user1_> Dr_Willis:yes
[08:16] <Dr_Willis> so you were able to make a 256gb NTFS partition on it in XP? that seemed to work?
[08:17] <user1_> Dr_Willis: no it doesn't retain data there either
[08:17] <Dr_Willis> user1_:  so under XP it also fails to  work.
[08:17] <user1_> Dr_Willis:yes
[08:18] <Dr_Willis> Track down a Vista/Win7 box and see if it also fails for them. Its sound more and more like some odd hardware issue to me.
[08:18] <robertzaccour> how do i record video with recordMyDesktop without audio?
[08:18] <Dr_Willis> user1_:  so has this thing worked on ANY os  in any way?
[08:19] <prash> user1_, just out of curiosity what make is this drive?
[08:19] <user1_> prash: kingston data traveller
[08:19] <pepee> I'm trying to make the 64bit plugin work in firefox
[08:19] <user1_> prash: firmware version 3.0
[08:19] <prash> user1_, did you google and see if anyone else has this issue?
[08:19] <pepee> it isn't. however, the 32bit one works just fine
[08:20] <prash> user1_, also, did you update the firmware from their website (if applicable)?
[08:20] <user1_> prash: update firmware ! how?
[08:20] <Dr_Willis> ive never even heard of flashing firmware for a usb flash thumbdrive
[08:20] <user1_> does lucid have any packs?
[08:22] <prash> user1_, sorry missed the flash drive part.  Thought it to be the USB HDD
[08:22] <Dr_Willis> prash:  yea. ive never seen a 256GB USB flash drive either. :) that would be high $$$
[08:23] <prash> Dr_Willis, I am still in the 16GB, 32GB flash age . lol.
[08:23] <Dr_Willis> prash:  yep. Im waiting for 16gb's to get reasonable
[08:24] <dean[w]> I added my msn contact list to empathy, im online
[08:24] <dean[w]> but how do i bring up the contact list?
[08:26] <jan-pieter> In gnome you can switch user. Then you end up back at the login screen and the account you are coming from remains logged in. I want to do the same thing from the command line. Is that possible?
[08:26] <noobuser> hey guys, i uninstalled gdm on my ubuntu 10.04 partition, now i cant boot, im on liveUSB at the moment is there away i can chroot and reinstall it?
[08:27] <ikonia> noobuser: why can't you boot it - what's theerror
[08:27] <ikonia> the "error"
[08:28] <Jordan_U> noobuser: Yes, just mounting your Ubuntu partition, chrooting into it, and "apt-get install gdm" should work.
[08:28] <ikonia> he shouldn't need to
[08:28] <ikonia> gdm will not stop it booting
[08:28] <noobuser> ikonia, there is no error..., i had problems with booting prior (i had to boot through recovery mode -> restart x option) so i wanted to reinstall gdm to see if that helped, instantly my computer shutdown, now it wont boot into gnome
[08:28] <ikonia> noobuser: do you get a command prompt when you boot ?
[08:29] <noobuser> Jordan_U, could you pm me a list of commands?
[08:29] <A[D]minS> Hello , How i can show remaining unused space of Physical Disk ?
[08:29] <noobuser> ikonia, no
[08:29] <ikonia> noobuser: then gdm is not your problem
[08:29] <A[D]minS> fdisk -l not helpful , any other idea?
[08:29] <ikonia> noobuser: so re-installing it will do nothing.
[08:29] <ikonia> noobuser: what do you get on your screen
[08:29] <ikonia> (when you boot)
[08:29] <Jordan_U> noobuser: What exactly happens when you boot?
[08:29] <prince_jammys> A[D]minS: df
[08:30] <chrisdone> anyone know why the left Windows key on a Das Keyboard does nothing on Ubuntu? it doesn't trigger super_L or hyper_L
[08:30] <noobuser> ikonia, if i install gdm i will be able to boot with the recovery mode option atleast, then fix the other problem
[08:30] <A[D]minS> prince_jammys: unused space of Physical Disk  "Not Formated"
[08:30] <ikonia> noobuser: no you won't
[08:30] <ikonia> noobuser: what do you see on the screen when you boot
[08:30] <prince_jammys> A[D]minS: ah, sorry.
[08:30] <noobuser> it just loops
[08:30] <ikonia> what lopps
[08:30] <noobuser> as in shutsdown after grub
[08:30] <ikonia> what's on the screen
[08:30] <ikonia> no it doesn't
[08:30] <noobuser> black
[08:30] <ikonia> explain what you see
[08:31] <FloodBot1> ikonia: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[08:31] <noobuser> i see grub, press enter on the first entry, get a black screen for a few seconds, then see the computer acer startup thing, then grub again
[08:31] <ikonia> noobuser: ok - so that's nothing to do with gdm
[08:32] <noobuser> i know, thats my other problem
[08:32] <noobuser> so i try recovery mode
[08:32] <ikonia> noobuser: installing gdm won't make it boot
[08:32] <noobuser> and restart x which normally works, but because gdm isnt installed restart x option doesnt work
[08:33] <noobuser> ikonia, installing gdm will let me boot into graphical recovery mode
[08:33] <prash> user1_, One last format from XP and then I guess it is time for an RMA/return.
[08:33] <ikonia> noobuser: I disagree
[08:33] <noobuser> there are two problems, i cant boot, i dont have gdm thus i cant boot recovery
[08:33] <ikonia> noobuser: if you cant boot the OS (which you can't) you won't be able to boot recovery mode, and if you can boot recovery mode, you don't need gdm
[08:33] <user1_> prash : ok i will try it
[08:33] <solifex> noobuser: Sounds to me like the kernel doesn't start up, even if X fails to start you should end up at the command line.
[08:33] <prash> user1_, FWIW, do exactly like:  http://www.kingston.com/support/howtodt/default.asp?type=x3
[08:34] <Dr_Willis> user1_:  as a last ditch efford. you could 'zero' the thing with the proper dd command.  and then try to repartition it.
[08:34] <ikonia> solifex: it hardware reboots, so X won't make a difference
[08:34] <Gumby> does a touchpad mouse usually show up in lspci?
[08:34] <prash> user1_, You can try what Dr_Willis suggested.   But you may have to re-create the partition table.
[08:34] <noobuser> solifex, if i choose the command line option from recovery mode then i can login and command line and such
[08:34] <Dr_Willis> You definatly will. :)
[08:35] <user1_> Dr_Willis: what is the proper dd command?
[08:35] <solifex> noobuser: Can you start X from there then?
[08:35] <noobuser> i dont know howto
[08:35] <Dr_Willis> user1_:  dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/WHATEVERDONTGETTHISWRONG   bs=1024
[08:35] <prash> user1_, first make sure /dev/sdb is your flash drive
[08:35] <Dr_Willis> user1_:  that will Totally zero out the whold drive. deleteing everything
[08:36] <Dr_Willis> user1_:  i had to do that once ages ago to a 4gb flash
[08:36] <chirpis> Hi guys.  I have an Asus wl-130g wireless card in an old desktop on which I just installed kubuntu.  It seems to recognize the card, but it shows no available networks.  Do I need a different driver?
[08:37] <chirpis> I'm running kubuntu 10.04, amd64.
[08:37] <solifex> noobuser: You could try the command "startx", if that does not work you need to edit the .xinitrc file and add "exec gnome-session"
[08:37] <user1_> Dr_Willis: is it not equivalent of deleting and formatting partitions of drive which i have done so many times
[08:37] <noobuser> startx didnt work
[08:38] <Dr_Willis> user1_:  this is lower level then formating/deleting
[08:38] <prash> user1_, It is more than that.  It wipes out MBR and anything in DOS-compat region
[08:38] <Dr_Willis> user1_:  the only thing 'below' the dd zero test. is a low level format..
[08:38] <Dr_Willis> and ive NEVER had to do a lowlevel format. :)
[08:39] <user1_> Dr_Willis: ok. and then create a MBR / msdos parition table is it?
[08:39] <solifex> noobuser: edit the file .xinitrc in your home directory and add the line "exec gnome-session" and then try startx
[08:39] <prash> user1_, yes
[08:39] <Dr_Willis> user1_:  dd. then you will have to repartition. I suggest trying 'fdisk' to partition the drive.  then reboot.. THEN reformat.
[08:39] <Jordan_U> noobuser: Do *not* do what solifex suggested.
[08:40] <Jordan_U> solifex: That will log him into gnome as root.
[08:40] <prince_jammys> huh?
[08:40] <user1_> Dr_Willis: ok. format to what - fat32 or ext3?
[08:40] <solifex> Jordan_U: Not unless he's running as root that is?
[08:41] <chirpis> Anybody? Do I need to give more info ro something?
[08:41] <user1_> Dr_Willis: never did ext3 got recognized
[08:41] <Jordan_U> solifex: Which, since he's in recovery mode, he is.
[08:41] <Jordan_U> noobuser: "apt-get install gdm" from that shell, then "service gdm start". But I agree with ikonia that you have bigger problems than GDM.
[08:41] <Dr_Willis> user1_:  try vfat i guess.
[08:41] <chirpis> Hi guys. I have an Asus wl-130g wireless card in an old desktop on which I just installed kubuntu. It seems to recognize the card, but it shows no available networks. Do I need a different driver?
[08:41] <chirpis> I'm running kubuntu 10.04, amd64.
[08:42] <user1_> ok.
[08:42] <noobuser> Jordan_U, i cant, i dont have internet connection from that shell. im using a wireless adapter
[08:43] <noobuser> i need to chroot and install gdm. i dont know how
[08:44] <chirpis> What do I need to tell in order for my question to be acknowledged?
[08:44] <vlt> noobuser: `chroot /your/root` and there run `aptitude install gdm`
[08:45] <Pirate_Hunter> chirpis, maybe going to #kubuntu and asking their might help
[08:45] <noobuser> what do i replace, your root with, /dev/sda1?
[08:45] <chirpis> kubuntu is dead.,
[08:46] <chirpis> I doubt this issue is specxific to kubuntu.
[08:46] <robertzaccour> chirpis, when did kubuntu die? its more widely used than Xubuntu and Xubuntu ain't dead
[08:46] <shauno> noobuser: a path, not a device.  so wherever the disk is mounted
[08:46] <chirpis> I mean #kubuntu, the channel.
[08:46] <robertzaccour> oh ok
[08:47] <Pirate_Hunter> chirpis, its not dead but neither alive its zombified and yeah it may not be specific to kubuntu,h however I can't help
[08:47] <student> ....
[08:47] <robertzaccour> kde has more of a windows desktop look than the others
[08:47] <vlt> noobuser: Depends on where your root fs is ;-)
[08:47] <student> 2222
[08:47] <bazhang> !cn | student
[08:48] <chirpis> Is ndiswrapper something that is still used?
[08:48] <bazhang> student, /join #ubuntu-tw
[08:48] <psycho_oreos> chirpis, yes
[08:49] <chirpis> Would it be worth trying?
[08:49] <psycho_oreos> what is the chipset of your wireless card?

[08:50] <psycho_oreos> humm check dmesg, you might be missing firmware or firmware is incompatible (though I very very highly doubt it)
[08:52] <noobuser> how do i find where my root filesystem is mounted
[08:52] <vlt> noobuser: What exactly did you do before?
[08:52] <vlt> noobuser: I mean, are you running from a live cd?
[08:53] <noobuser> yes
[08:53] <chirpis> I'l be back in a while.
[08:53] <vlt> noobuser: Then you have to mount it yourself
[08:53] <noobuser> i did
[08:53] <vlt> noobuser: What does `blkid` tell you?
[08:54] <vlt> noobuser: Aah, then look at the output of `mount`
[08:54] <noobuser> nothing
[08:55] <vlt> noobuser: You need root permission to get a useful result from `blkid`
[08:55] <noobuser> woot i did it
[08:55] <noobuser> i chrooted in thanks
[09:01] <Ranger91> hi everyone

[09:02] <Vroomfondle> On occasion. Why?
[09:03] <Ranger91> well im trying to delete the flat map pack and replace it with the one freshly posted in the repository, whats the best way to go about removing the old one?
[09:04] <kraut> moin
[09:04] <Flannel> Ranger91: In Windows Seven?
[09:05] <Ranger91> right
[09:05] <Flannel> Ranger91: ##windows would be the best place to ask that
[09:05] <Ranger91> alright ill give them a shot, first time using this chat thing so kinda noobish
[09:05] <Flannel> Ranger91: No worries.  `/join ##windows` will get you there
[09:06] <Ranger91> alright
[09:06] <zipper> hi any1 knows how to install vmware on linux?
[09:07] <zipper> hi any1 knows how to install vmware on linux?!?!?@?!??!
[09:07] <iceroot> zipper: go to the vmware site and donwload the deb, maybe thing about using virtualbox which is supported from ubuntu and in the repos
[09:08] <zipper> iceroot, i have checked
[09:08] <jan-pieter> does anyone know how to automatically login a user that is hidden from the list of user on the login screen?
[09:08] <zipper> iceroot, there is no deb there i just downloaded something that can be installed in linux but not able to install it
[09:09] <iceroot> zipper: vmware has a deb
[09:09] <zipper> iceroot,  i can also install virtualbox right?
[09:10] <iceroot> zipper: sure, virtualbox can also read vmware-images
[09:10] <zipper> iceroot, i can install it from ubuntu software centre right?
[09:10] <Vin73> hi any idea which is the config file used by apt-get
[09:10] <zipper> iceroot is the appl called virtualbox ose?
[09:10] <iceroot> zipper: yes, the one in the ubuntu repos doesnt have usb-support, only the non-free version
[09:10] <iceroot> zipper: yes
[09:10] <Vin73> I need to set the http_proxy there
[09:11] <zipper> iceroot, thanks
[09:11] <Vin73> doesn't work if I set the same on the bashrc
[09:12] <Vin73> Hello?
[09:16] <Firstgear> Anybody know how to get midi working on ubuntu. I got my soundfont copied into /usr/share/sounds/sf2 and I loaded up the soundfont with qsynth but I still get no midi playback. Anybody know what else I could check?
[09:17] <Dr_Willis> !vmare | zipper
[09:17] <Gevz> hello
[09:17] <Dr_Willis> !vmware | zipper
[09:17] <zipper> THANK YOU Dr_Willis i missed u
[09:17] <Dr_Willis> zipper:  you may want to use virtualbox these days instead
[09:17] <Gevz> i have a problem with history in Google Chrome, can somebody help me?
[09:18] <pitcher> hello, ive problems with a Fritz Wlan N stick. I get only a 54 mbit connection (lucid 64bit). is ar9170usb limited to 54 mbit?
[09:18] <koshie> Hi all
[09:18] <koshie> Anybody know what is the process "backend" ?
[09:19] <koshie> He take 98% of my CPU :/
[09:19] <koshie> I don't like it...
[09:19] <zipper> Dr_Willis, do we need to have to windows cd to setup the virtual xp thingy?
[09:19] <Dr_Willis> koshie:  winff is a 'frontend' to the ffmpeg program as its 'backend'
[09:19] <koshie> And I need root to kill him.
[09:19] <koshie> I'm not sur to understand.
[09:19] <Dr_Willis> zipper:  to install windows in a vm. you need a cd or iso file and  a valid serial# same as a real machine.
[09:19] <koshie> sure*
[09:19] <Dr_Willis> koshie:  ive never heard of a program called 'backend'
[09:20] <koshie> Me too
[09:20] <koshie> It's a bug Dr_Willis !
[09:20] <koshie> Info from the ubuntu-fr forum :)
[09:20] <zipper> Dr_Willis, i have the valid serial but i dun have the cd =(
[09:21] <koshie> It's when you run a test of the system on Uubntu
[09:21] <Dr_Willis> zipper:  how were you expecting to install 'xp' without a copy of xp?
[09:21] <zipper> zipper, yea something like that =.="
[09:22] <Dr_Willis> huh?
[09:23] <chirpis> I'm back.  I didn't notice anything amiss in dmesg, but I didn't really know what to look for.  I noticed it calls my card rt2500pci, which seems correct.
[09:23] <Gevz> Google Chrome not save history, why?
[09:24] <psycho_oreos> chirpis, pastebin your dmesg output
[09:24] <Gevz> and I can't sync my account
[09:24] <Gevz> what the problem?
[09:24] <chirpis> Ok, hold on.  It'll take a while because my desktop isn't online. :)
[09:25] <wessel_> dumela
[09:25] <funcrush> Hi, I got WD my passport essential 500GB (extenal drive), but it is not recgnized in Kubuntu and it sounds just tik, tik, tik,... anybody help me?
[09:25] <Vin73> hello can anyone tell me how to set the proxy for apt-get
[09:25] <wessel_> anyone have a vuvuzela??
[09:25] <pitcher> hello, ive problems with a Fritz Wlan N stick. I get only a 54 mbit connection (lucid 64bit). is ar9170usb limited to 54 mbit? how can i force draft n?
[09:26] <psycho_oreos> funcrush, that's a hardware related issue, the drive either does not have adequate power or is dying
[09:26] <bazhang> !ot | wessel_
[09:27] <Shady31748> Çäåñü åñòü ðóññêèå?
[09:27] <psycho_oreos> pitcher, if the AP also supports 802.11n, you might be able to enable n on the device
[09:27] <bazhang> Shady31748, /join #ubuntu-ru
[09:28] <pitcher> psycho_oreos 802.11n is enabeled on the ap, win7 connects with 160 mbit from the same computer (dualboot)
[09:28] <funcrush> psycho_oreos: well.. do u mean that I can't resolve it ?
[09:29] <psycho_oreos> pitcher, you might want to try iw phy phy0 info
[09:30] <NeoCicak> hi... i'm having problem with my soundcard (Creative X-Fi) on ubuntu 64... has anyone experienced the same problem?
[09:30] <psycho_oreos> funcrush, you might, but its not really related to ubuntu or kubuntu
[09:30] <Beelsebob> so… something weird is going on here… http://paste.lisp.org/display/112154 <— this is the first time I've logged into this box in over two days, so it's not like sudo timed out… why on earth did it not ask for my pw the first time?
[09:31] <funcrush> psycho_oreos that's too bad.... anyway thanks you :)
[09:31] <psycho_oreos> funcrush, no worries, you might want to try ##hardware
[09:31] <Beelsebob> psycho_oreos: #hardware is not for supporting random driver issues on random platforms
[09:31] <Beelsebob> it's for discussing hardware
[09:32] <Beelsebob> said platforms' channels are where driver issues are dealt with
[09:32] <psycho_oreos> Beelsebob, that isn't a driver issue afaik, that's a hardware issue if the hard drive clicks
[09:32] <Beelsebob> (i.e. here)
[09:32] <Guest83036> got linux on my nintendo ds. 8)
[09:32] <chirpis> psycho_oreos: http://pastebin.com/6jcdAZ1p
[09:32] <Beelsebob> oh shit sorry, missread… thought you were responding to NeoCicak
[09:32] <Beelsebob> my bad
[09:32] <psycho_oreos> Beelsebob, no worries :)
[09:33] <Dr_Willis> funcrush:  is it usb powered? or got its own power supply?
[09:33] <konryd> hello everyone. What problems will I run into if I add karmic repos to sources.list on lucid?
[09:33] <funcrush> Dr_Willis: it is usb powered.
[09:33] <Dr_Willis> konryd:  very bad idea. could totally make a ubnbootable system
[09:33] <funcrush> psycho_oreos : thank you very much, I'll search a help in there.
[09:34] <konryd> Dr_Willis, sounds like a problem indeed, thanks :)
[09:34] <Dr_Willis> funcrush:  on some of my USB powered drives - they had special cables that had 2 usb conectors on one end. (the end that went to the pc) that gave them extra power. If i did NOT use that 3 headed connector cable. thye wouldent work properly
[09:34] <zipper> Dr_Willis, i can download the windows installation thingy from microsoft website right?
[09:34] <psycho_oreos> chirpis, looking at the logs I can see there was hardly any dramas with the driver, so you're saying that it wouldn't list any APs or the device cannot be seen?
[09:34] <pitcher> psycho_oreos: iw phy phy0 info detects bitrates up to 54 mbit but the ap ist definitivly configured to b,g,n mode
[09:34] <funcrush> Dr_Willis: whatis 3 headed cable?
[09:34] <chirpis> It won't list APs, but I know they're there.
[09:35] <pme> Guest83036: Nice, how'd u do that?
[09:35] <Dr_Willis> funcrush:  2 cables taht go into the pc. one that goes into the hd. like i just described
[09:35] <NeoCicak> hmmm apparently X-Fi doesnt work on lucid 64 bit
[09:35] <Dr_Willis> funcrush:  3 usb conectors total. 2 for pc. one for HD.
[09:35] <Dr_Willis> funcrush:  like  the letter 'Y'
[09:35] <psycho_oreos> pitcher, there's the issue right there :) iw phy phy0 info shows the info for the connected device (or the first detected wireless device), so in that case, the driver is limited to 54Mbps
[09:36] <funcrush> Dr_Willis: i see.
[09:36] <psycho_oreos> chirpis, hmm go into terminal and try sudo ifconfig wlan0 up
[09:37] <zipper> Dr_Willis, u thereeee?
[09:37] <Dr_Willis> zipper:  hmm?
[09:37] <zipper> Dr_Willis, i can download the windows installation thingy from microsoft website right?
[09:37] <chirpis> No change. :(
[09:37] <funcrush> Dr_Willis : Can i use any cable ('Y')? well... i mean the HD depend on specify cable.
[09:37] <Dr_Willis> zipper:  download windows from microsoft? No idea.
[09:37] <psycho_oreos> I thought the rules of ubuntu topics were strictly enforced :) if not then I'm presuming in funcrush's case, it might also be unpowered USB hub, or underpowered USB hub, or using the front USB ports of the computer where the power supply maybe insufficient
[09:37] <Dr_Willis> funcrush:  my usb HD came with such a cable. If you have one. try it.
[09:37] <zipper> Dr_Willis, because i do not know isit this 1 or not can u check for me .. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/310994
[09:38] <Dr_Willis> zipper:  i dont plan on doing any microsoft research. try #windows
[09:38] <funcrush> psycho_oreos, Dr_Willis: thank you for helpming me. I'll try  :)
[09:38] <Dr_Willis> psycho_oreos:  yea. ive had to use the 2 ends of the cables on differnt usb ports and other places on one pesky HD.
[09:39] <pitcher> psycho_oreos: ok, so the module ar9170usb is not limited to 54mbit? its caused by the driver ar9170.fw? thnx for ur support
[09:39] <Dr_Willis> I cant figure out why only some external USB Hd's use the Y cables and not others.
[09:39] <valium> hi all - i have a 64bit 10.4 Ubuntu server here that wont reboot.  It looks like its getting stuck on starting a service.  Im completely lost with the new UPSTART system, what can i do to see whats failing
[09:39] <psycho_oreos> Dr_Willis, hehe, had that happening on me other portable hard disk, also USB1.1 ports usually don't provide enough power at times
[09:39] <Dr_Willis> valium:   services shouldent be hanging  the system really.
[09:40] <Dr_Willis> valium:  theres the 'text' option that should show all the text messages at boot up.
[09:40] <psycho_oreos> pitcher, no the ar9170.fw is simply a firmware.. I'm presuming its just the driver itself that is restricting to 54Mbps
[09:40] <funcrush> psycho_oreos, Dr_Willis: maybe it resolved. I used extension line for the HD. After remove the line, it works well :) thanks
[09:40] <chirpis> psycho_oreos: I tried that, but it didn't change anything.
[09:41] <valium> Dr_Willis - what do you thinki could be hanging it?
[09:41] <psycho_oreos> funcrush, sounds like overpowered hence clicking, had that happening as well
[09:41] <Dr_Willis> valium:  hard to tell. you can edit the grub menu for a 1 time test  you wan tto change a line like the following -->  linux /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.32-21-generic root=UUID=83bc3df7-b039-445c-82c9-e0c5ff235044 ro nofb
[09:41] <psycho_oreos> chirpis, ok, try disabling networkmanager temporarily from managing wireless and after executing that command, try sudo iwlist wlan0 scanning
[09:42] <funcrush> psycho_oreos: Thank you :)
[09:42] <psycho_oreos> chirpis, if that yields nothing, check the last few lines of dmesg, it may show why
[09:42] <Dr_Willis> to be  linux .... yadda yadda....  text               (instead of the nofb/quiet/whatever) at the end
[09:42] <valium> Dr_willis - I would but its grub2
[09:42] <psycho_oreos> funcrush, no worries, though you should thank Dr_Willis as well
[09:42] <Mrono> i'm having a problem trying to install linux-image-2.6.31-20-generic
[09:42] <funcrush> psycho_oreos Yup :)
[09:42] <funcrush> Dr_Willis: Thank you, again :)
[09:43] <kaushal> hi
[09:43] <kaushal> can someone please guide me about my post on https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-server/2010-July/004402.html
[09:43] <Mrono> more specificly, trying to install tcl
[09:43] <chirpis> psycho_oreos, how do I disable networkmanager?
[09:43] <psycho_oreos> pitcher, if you're desperate, you might, might be able to enable 802.11n using ndiswrapper, but don't hold your breath and don't expect perfection either
[09:43] <Mrono> http://pastebin.com/spam.php?i=h03zutj0
[09:44] <psycho_oreos> chirpis, right click on network manager icon and uncheck the box labelled `enable wireless'
[09:44] <pitcher> psycho_oreos: the n stick is directly supportetd by the kernel (out of the box) . according to the wiki the module ar9170 schould be able to handle draft n. perhaps i will give the ndiswarpper a chance
[09:45] <psycho_oreos> pitcher, yeah it is supported by kernel but that doesn't mean you will necessarily get 802.11n capability straight out of the box either.. I have one other card that doesn't have 802.11n capability yet even though it has a native driver available
[09:45] <Mrono> Sorry, didn't look at the page, http://pastebin.com/h03zutj0 is what i'm getting with apt-get install tcl
[09:47] <tomatto_> hi
[09:47] <MattoD> Hi all, a bit of a newb question, I am currently using server 9.04 do you strongly recommend upgrading to 10.04
[09:48] <tomatto_> please, do have ubuntu 10.04 drivers for intel graphics card for playing games on ibm lenovo s10e netbook?
[09:48] <gueest> Mattod, anserw is: why not?
[09:49] <psycho_oreos> MattoD, I'd read the release notes of 10.04 prior to upgrading.. and I'd advise against upgrading as it is hardly ever done cleanly
[09:49] <MattoD> ah right, i did try to upgrade via the desktop to 9.10 and that failed
[09:49] <chirpis> psycho_oreos, no scan results.  dmesg says, ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan0: link is not ready.
[09:50] <MattoD> so that was unclean
[09:50] <psycho_oreos> chirpis, hmm and you have made sure networkmanager is not managing wireless at all?
[09:51] <psycho_oreos> MattoD, in my past experiences I have had failed upgrades so I refused to go down the upgrade path.. if I were to put a new version, I'd do a clean install
[09:52] <MattoD> ok will do thx psycho_oreos
[09:52] <psycho_oreos> MattoD, no worries
[09:52] <chirpis> psycho_oreos, how do I check?
[09:53] <psycho_oreos> chirpis, by going through the same process as disabling wireless on network manager but not unchecking the box
[09:54] <chirpis> psycho_oreos, I thought unchecking the box is how you disabled it?
[09:54] <Dr_Willis> valium:  that text option is new in 10.04 and works with grub2
[09:54] <psycho_oreos> chirpis, correct and you repeat the same process except you don't check the box, you just make sure by seeing if the box remains unchecked
[09:55] <chirpis> psycho_oreos, ok, it's still unchecked, and I get the same results.
[09:55] <tomatto_> please, do have ubuntu 10.04 drivers for intel graphics card for playing games on ibm lenovo s10e netbook?
[09:55] <mataks> how to add a program in start up that needs root
[09:55] <abhi_nav> hey m back!!!
[09:55] <psycho_oreos> chirpis, try sudo ifconfig wlan0 up && sudo iwlist wlan0 scanning
[09:55] <Dr_Willis> mataks:  depends on the program and whats its doing
[09:55] <valium> Dr_Willis - i only can get into the system via recovery mode now. ;(  its got a whole financial departments info on it
[09:55] <anang> hai...
[09:56] <valium> how does ubuntu paid support work?
[09:56] <Dr_Willis> valium:  the 'text' option basically just disables plymouth and gdm, so you can see whatever boot up messages.
[09:56] <toyman61> Ubuntu 10.04: Windows has an excellent video editing program called Pinnacle. With this it is possible to load a DVD-video (VOB) (i.e. recordings from a DVD-recorder taken from a TV channel), remove the commercials and then save it back as a DivX-movie (suitable for playing over the network on a home theater unit). This is done as a one-pass operation. Is anything similar possible on Ubuntu 10.04 ?  I have tried avidemux, but I'm not ful
[09:56] <toyman61> ly satisfied. Wine does not run Pinnacle.. :-(
[09:56] <valium> Dr_Willis - what file do i edit to add the text option
[09:56] <Dr_Willis> valium:  its a GRUB menu line you can edit to try it the first time
[09:57] <Dr_Willis> valium:  from teh grub menu. not a file.
[09:57] <abhi_nav> valium, http://www.canonical.com/consumer-services/support
[09:57] <A[D]minS> How i can show remaining unused space of physical disk  "Not Formated"  ? fdisk -l not helpful. any ideas?
[09:57] <valium> Dr_Willis - when i hold down the shift key all i get is recovery mode and stardard kernel mode
[09:57] <Dr_Willis> line like -->  linux /vmlinuz-2.6.32-22-generic     <OTHERSTUFF>  quiet text
[09:58] <Dr_Willis> valium:  and theres an EDIT option at that screen
[09:58] <Dr_Willis> valium:  its a grub feature
[09:58] <psycho_oreos> A[D]minS, try df -h
[09:58] <abhi_nav> A[D]minS, just delete that partition
[09:58] <A[D]minS> psycho_oreos  "Not Formated"
[09:58] <A[D]minS> abhi_nav: , psycho_oreos i want to know the size of unformated space!
[09:58] <psycho_oreos> A[D]minS, ah, thought it was mounted, my bad
[09:58] <Dr_Willis> A[D]minS:  you mean what 'unallocated' space remains?
[09:59] <chirpis> psycho_oreos, still no results
[09:59] <abhi_nav> A[D]minS, yes u wll. use gparted
[09:59] <psycho_oreos> chirpis, do you have some other wireless manager software running? such as wicd, etc?
[09:59] <valium> Dr_willis - ill reboot and check it out
[09:59] <A[D]minS> abhi_nav: is there any tool through CLI
[09:59] <abhi_nav> A[D]minS, duuunnnooo
[09:59] <psycho_oreos> A[D]minS, probably parted
[09:59] <psycho_oreos> gparted is the frontend of parted
[10:00] <chirpis> psycho_oreos, nop, I don't think so.
[10:00] <psycho_oreos> chirpis, not convincing when you say you don't think so, hmm
[10:00] <A[D]minS> woooow psycho_oreos well done :) parted
[10:00] <A[D]minS> thx alot
[10:01] <chirpis> psycho_oreos, how do I check?
[10:01] <psycho_oreos> A[D]minS, no worries, though abhi_nav solved the other part
[10:01] <valium> Dr_Willis - ok I have edited it - will Ctrl-X write to file
[10:01] <abhi_nav> :)
[10:02] <psycho_oreos> chirpis, that is the part that I'm looking at right now, in the meantime, I'd try and trace back what you installed.. did it used to work before?
[10:02] <Dr_Willis> valium:  its not writingot a file. its a 1 time thing
[10:02] <chirpis> psycho_oreos, it has never worked.  This is pretty much a fresh install.
[10:02] <Dr_Willis> valium:  do the changes.. ctrl-x to exit/boot
[10:03] <psycho_oreos> chirpis, weird, because in one sense it does not seem to be a driver issue (which can be apparent if you're running 64bit), on the other hand I do recall you said you installed 64bit version
[10:03] <chirpis> psycho_oreos, well, it worked in an older version of ubuntu, maybe 8.
[10:04] <chirpis> psycho_oreos, yeah, it's 64 bit.
[10:04] <tomatto_> please, is some graphical application to mounting iso files?
[10:04] <Dr_Willis> tomatto_:  thers one in the repos i saw that adds a mount iso.. to the context menu. but its trivial to do it by hand
[10:04] <psycho_oreos> chirpis, ok, run iwevent and let it sit there for about 5 minutes
[10:05] <psycho_oreos> chirpis, actually once you done that, and am waiting for 5 minutes, tell me
[10:05] <Dr_Willis> !iso
[10:05] <chirpis> psycho_oreos, with networkmanager still disabled?
[10:05] <Gorlist> hi, quick question. I want to secure my tmp and var/tmp directorys. Is using a loopback just as good as making a new partition?
[10:05] <psycho_oreos> chirpis, for wireless part, yes
[10:06] <chirpis> psycho_oreos, ok, it's running.
[10:06] <psycho_oreos> chirpis, open up another terminal and type in sudo iwconfig wlan0 mode monitor
[10:07] <valium> Dr_Willis it gets to a point where it says running scripts /init/bottom then the graphics card drops in and the screen clears then a small cursor onthe top left appears.  Blinking.  but the system halts.  If i hit ALT+CTRL+DEL is begins shutdown
[10:07] <tomatto_> Dr_Willis: do you remember name of application?
[10:07] <andy_> ubuntu 10.04 won't reboot (when I use the reboot menu item from the panel and when I hit ctl-alt-del). When I click on either of these, nothing happens, anyone had this before?
[10:07] <Dr_Willis> valium:  if you do the recovery mode it doesd go to a console then?
[10:07] <Dr_Willis> tomatto_:  nope.
[10:07] <mataks> how to add a program in start up that needs root
[10:07] <valium> Dr_Willis - no same thing
[10:08] <rww> !boot | mataks

[10:08] <Dr_Willis> valium:  and it started doing this when exactly
[10:09] <psycho_oreos> chirpis, ok, do this: sudo ifconfig wlan0 down && iwconfig wlan0 mode monitor && ifconfig wlan0 up
[10:09] <prash> tomatto_, right click the iso and use archive mounter to mount it.
[10:09] <Dr_Willis> mataks:  clarify what the program is doing and that will  let us know 'where' it needsd to start at. "startup" is a little vague.
[10:10] <Dr_Willis> prash:  i dont think archivemounter is installed by default.
[10:10] <Dr_Willis> !find archivemounter
[10:10] <chirpis> psycho_oreos, ok, that worked, and it showed up in iwevents.
[10:11] <psycho_oreos> chirpis, hmm ok, do the same thing except replace the word monitor with managed, and then wait

[10:15] <veleno> hello. i'm looking for a software solution to easily manage a cluster of pc machines. the softwar should allow wake-on-line, PXE, deploying linux/windows images and some basic reservation system. Suggestions? i've found http://www.fogproject.org but it only deploys windows images apparently
[10:16] <psycho_oreos> chirpis, my guess is that it could be an issue with the driver, you might also want to try your support in #linux-wireless.. but before you do that, try the backports.. I presume you're running lucid right?
[10:16] <pseud0cod3r> anyone could help
[10:16] <chirpis> psycho_oreos, right
[10:16] <AdrianBroher> I'm currently trying to set up a network installation with a preseed file for a multi-boot system. When partitioning the hard drive the installer complaints about the fact, that the ntfs partition is not mounted to a mount point. How can I suppress this warning?

[10:19] <Megaviv> OK, Sorry... I'll tell it all over again, as a complete post: I have a Lenovo 3000 N200 and an SD card on which an Ubuntu 10.04 Netbook Version OS is held. Nothing happened when I inserted the card into the slot when Windows was on, and so I tried reconfiguring the BIOS's boot order to try booting form the Memory Card's slot as first, but this method failed, and the BIOS passed on to the regular Windows OS.
[10:19] <Megaviv> What can I do?
[10:19] <blacktortilla> how do i authenticate if my account doesnt use a password to login and im admin

[10:28] <Megaviv> OK

[10:29] <Dr_Willis> sxp:  step1 download it. :)
[10:29] <Megaviv> As a result I tried using the built-in feature in the Ubuntu installation window menu which should "help me boot from the CD", nut it had an exception at the end, and the error made it all go in vain. What can I do?

[10:34] <Dr_Willis> valium:  it could be the thing is fscking the filesystems. there was some key to skip that. Theres often an issue with Plymouth not proerly showing the 'fscking the disks....' messages

[10:37] <quietone> I've just started using ssh and get this error "/home/<X>/.local/share/applications/gnome-system-monitor.desktop for panel launcher: No such file or directory." But X is not a username on either machine. why?
[10:37] <Dr_Willis> quietone:  using ssh how exctly?
[10:38] <valium> Dr_Willis - or anyone for that matter.  Does Ubuntu 64bit have a problem with AHCI mode for sata disks?
[10:38] <quietone>  Dr_Willis: Hi, ssh -X v@a.b.c.d "gnome-panel"
[10:39] <Dr_Willis> quietone:  im not sure starting gnome-panel that way is a good idea. try starting somtjhing simpiler like gnome-terminal first.
[10:39] <Dr_Willis> valium:  not thast i have ever heard mention of.
[10:39] <rww> Megaviv: Hrm. How did you get the install image onto the SD card?
[10:39] <Dr_Willis> is it ssh -x to enable X forardiong or -X ? one prevents it. :)
[10:39] <delfis> so where to install program? in which folder? i don`t think that /home
[10:40] <valium> Dr_willis - is it okay to use compatible mode ?
[10:40] <Dr_Willis> valium:  not sure what you mean by compatable mode. what is asking to use that?

[10:40] <Dr_Willis> delfis:  depends on what it is. and how you are installing it.

[10:41] <Megaviv> rww: I used the instructions at the Ubuntu.com website, which guided me to download universal USB installer and use it to transferr the ISO file I've downloaded into the SD card
[10:41] <erUSUL> !fakeraid | wookienz
[10:42] <erUSUL> wookienz: dmraid is the command to activate fakeraids in linux

[10:44] <rww> Megaviv: hrm. I don't see anywhere where it says that would work with an SD card necessarily?
[10:44] <lxsys> I'm getting a kick-ass four 3.2 GHz xeon processor workstation delivered today, but it has no graphics card. I'm not an expert at graphics. Would anybody be able to advise me on a suitable card? It has AGP and PCI slots, no PCI express. I require something with two VGA outputs and at least 256mb of graphics ram. Thanks in advance.
[10:45] <ujvarosya> hey, what can I do, if I want to copy files form local network through in wired network cable(cross); I'M using the net with wifi, and now it's copying with wlan..
[10:45] <rww> I haven't done it myself, I use a USB stick generally.
[10:45] <erUSUL> wookienz: that would be something to handle in the bios of the array or maybe in the especific tool the motherboard vendor ships ( for windows surely )
[10:45] <linxeh> lxsys: surely it depends on what you want to doo
[10:46] <abhijain> grub issue with vista dual boot and ubuntu 10.4 lucid . unable toa ccess ubuntu .

[10:47] <tomasz> I Install GTA SA but when i run i dont see titles in menu only boxes
[10:48] <tomasz> when i run game it crash

[10:50] <wookienz> erUSUL: no, nothing.

[10:56] <xor> Hi there.

[10:57] <erUSUL> wookienz: well sda seems to have a odd partitionning... dmesg does not show any partitions ( but tshows this odd line [    1.590402]  sdb: sda1 ) and fdisk shows /dev/sda1p1 and /dev/sda1 ... really dunno what may have happened.
[10:57] <xor> Does anyone know if Ubuntu 10.10 will have the yahoo search engine as the default on Firefox?
[10:57] <wookienz> erUSUL: i think sdb has an EFI partition in there for some reason what ever that means.
[10:58] <Dr_Willis> xor:  i doubt if anyone knows at this time.
[10:58] <erUSUL> wookienz: can you paste « sudo parted /dev/sda print » ?
[10:58] <erUSUL> wookienz: sda show efi too ( GPT )

[11:00] <abhi_nav> then I can only tell how. i can be with you on each step? abhijain ? because to implement all this you have to restart ,logoff etc?
[11:00] <abhi_nav> abhijain, i try wait
[11:00] <blackthor> hello.  i am trying to figure out if ubuntu works fine on a HP ML150 G6 (which is "pretty" now but not 'bleeding edge')  however, on the canonical site, the HP compatibility list looks outdated  (no mentioning of 10.04), is there anybody that did a successful 10.04 install on that machine (incl raid ctrller)
[11:01] <wookienz> erUSUL: is i possible that linux is seeing both disks and not the one the disk that the bios should be presenting?
[11:01] <xor> I guess I'll see when it comes out.
[11:01] <blackthor> whow, wookienz, recursive partitioning that sounds more like statistics in math than an fdisk problem
[11:01] <abhi_nav> where he goes now?
[11:02] <wookienz> blackthor: god knows how it happened!
[11:02] <erUSUL> wookienz: it is seing both. the disk the bios pressents /dev/mapper/pdc_whatever and the individual disks. there is nothing wrong with that. the problem is that one of the disks of the array has a bad/odd partition table so linux warns that the array is not ready and wont mount it
[11:03] <wookienz> erUSUL: ok that makes sense - it is a raid 0 array so obviosuly it needs it, and I NEED IT!! Can i manually fix it? By the way , should have mentioend it earlier, it was a NTFS fs.
[11:04] <abhi_nav> abhijain, what happend where were you been gone?
[11:04] <abhijain> abhi_nav: n/w probem
[11:04] <abhi_nav> abhijain, I see. so can we continew now?
[11:04] <abhijain> abhi_nav: yeah
[11:04] <blackthor> wookienz: sw raid? or hw raid?
[11:05] <abhi_nav> abhijain, ok so you are using 10.04?
[11:05] <abhijain> abhi_nav: yeah lucid 10.4 wubi
[11:06] <abhi_nav> wubi? what is wubi to do with grub restoration?
[11:06] <wookienz> blackthor: SW raid -
[11:06] <NeverCast> abhi_nav, That is something I have always wondered, Does wubi just use the Windows boot loader? or install the GRUB loader?
[11:07] <NeverCast> I understand 'install' wouldn't be a correct term in this case, but you get what I mean.
[11:07] <abhi_nav> NeverCast, how wubi can use grub? its INSIDE windwos naa? I mean its like an normal aps to win? how can it edit mbr?
[11:07] <BPower> Hey everyone. I'm on Ubuntu Lucid and apache2 won't start and is giving no errors (in logs or otherwise)
[11:07] <NeverCast> abhi_nav, Well the kernel images are in the windows partition sure.
[11:08] <NeverCast> abhi_nav, But it isn't like a Virtual Machine, the kernel is actually loaded
[11:08] <NeverCast> abhi_nav, I would believe Wubi would use GRUB bootloader
[11:08] <Dr_Willis> windows chanloads grub somehow to boot wubi. (i hate wubi. so dont use it) :) so imay be wrong
[11:09] <NeverCast> Dr_Willis, When you install 'wubi' it creates some virtual hard drive images which are mounted by the kernel, which sit on your windows partition, then it loads GRUB into your MBR, and sets it up for either Ubuntu kernel, or NTLDR on boot.
[11:10] <NeverCast> .. I could be long, but I believe that's how it works.
[11:10] <erUSUL> wookienz:i'm looking google for ways of restoring a gpt partition table ...
[11:10]  * Dr_Willis knows that it often works poorly
[11:10] <Dr_Willis> :)
[11:10] <wookienz> erUSUL: thanks i appreciate it! I have been trying for days to get it working...
[11:10] <NeverCast> Dr_Willis, Agreed, I have Ubuntu installed on my Laptop, no windows anywhere, none of this Wubi stuff, no dual boot
[11:10] <NeverCast> If I want to run windows, I'll just do it Virtually.
[11:10] <abhi_nav_> I was disconnected
[11:11] <abhi_nav_> I lost all msgs.
[11:11] <NeverCast> abhi_nav, that's okay it was just chit-chat.
[11:11] <abhi_nav_> NeverCast, Ok. :)
[11:11] <BPower> Hey everyone. I'm on Ubuntu Lucid and apache2 won't start and is giving no errors (in logs or otherwise) -- Where should I start debugging?
[11:11] <BPower> (sorry, I forgot to finish the question)
[11:11] <NeverCast> BPower, wanna paste bin the errors for us?
[11:12] <rww> NeverCast: the ones that he said he didn't get?
[11:12] <abhi_nav> rww, :D lol
[11:12] <NeverCast> rww, Uhh.. LOL
[11:12] <NeverCast> rww, My bad
[11:12] <NeverCast> BPower, Sorry mate, misread your message.
[11:12] <rww> no worries, we all do it :)
[11:13] <BPower> NeverCast, no problem. :)
[11:13] <rww> BPower: no apache processes in "ps aux", I take it?
[11:13] <BPower> rww,  nope
[11:14] <BPower> none
[11:14]  * NeverCast ponders to himself. 'should set up an svn'.
[11:14] <wookienz> erUSUL: is it possible the NTFS partition has been marked dirty and linux wont mount it? I did see someone usingi "ntfsfix" to re move the dirty flag on the partition,,,but so far have been unsure how it will permantly affect the partitions..
[11:14] <Talu> Can anyone tell me how to open the root window?
[11:14] <erUSUL> wookienz: problem is we do not have a partition to ntfsfix ...
[11:14] <cpf> BPower, Try reinstalling it?
[11:14] <abhijain> abhi_nav: sorry . bsnl sucks here
[11:14] <abhi_nav> Talu, open terminal and there type sudo su
[11:15] <rww> BPower: is it writing to its log files at all?
[11:15] <abhi_nav> abhijain, yah its ok :) tell me you are using wubi?
[11:15] <rww> BPower: even without errors, there should be a couple of lines in there, I think
[11:15] <abhijain> abhi_nav: yeah 10.4
[11:15] <Talu> That didnt work
[11:15] <NeverCast> rww, log start times hopefully
[11:15] <abhi_nav> abhijain, then wubi is nothing to do with grub resoration. what exactly you want to do?
[11:15] <erUSUL> wookienz: the best i found http://www.rodsbooks.com/gdisk/repairing.html
[11:15] <abhi_nav> Talu, what ddint work? you want to login to root account?
[11:16] <Talu> I want to open a root window were i can copy paste stuff.
[11:16] <NeverCast> Talu, Right click, Paste ;)
[11:16]  * abhi_nav confused. 
[11:16] <abhijain> abhi_nav: i want to recover grub of linux . i installed windows vista after ubuntu and windows hide the grub of ubuntu
[11:16] <NeverCast> abhijain, It didn't exactly hide it
[11:16] <NeverCast> abhijain, More of Destroyed it
[11:17] <abhi_nav> abhijain, do you mean you install windows fully and you also installed ubuntu fully? in real hdd? in real partition?
[11:17] <abhi_nav> :(
[11:17] <NeverCast> abhi_nav, I'm not sure if he used wubi
[11:17] <NeverCast> abhi_nav, regardless, Wubi still uses the GRUB loader
[11:17] <Talu> You need an ubuntu CD and then boot it from it. When your on the virtual ubuntu you can fix the grub problem by reinstalling it.
[11:18] <abhi_nav> NeverCast, yah that is what I try to clear
[11:18] <abhi_nav> NeverCast, yes but id dont messes with mbr?
[11:18] <abhi_nav> ahh??
[11:18] <erUSUL> wookienz: i have to go for a while.
[11:18] <BPower> rww, strange - i'm getting two errors now.  "unable to start piped log program '/usr/bin/cronolog -S /var/log/apache2/xemzi_access_log -P /var/log/apache2/xemzi_access_log.prev /var/log/apache2/access_log-%Y%m%d': No such file or directory and "Unable to open logs"
[11:19] <BPower> I know what to do... i think
[11:19] <NeverCast> abhi_nav, What do you mean doesn't mess with the MBR, GRUB is written to the MBR.
[11:19] <wookienz> erUSUL: ok thanks - ill have a look
[11:20] <abhi_nav> NeverCast, I am totally confused. I never used wubi. but tell me that if one installed ubuntu inside windows i.e. wubi right? so it install under windows like any other ap? then how it can manipulate real mbr?
[11:20] <Talu> I need some help. I want to move a game from File system to my external HD. But it wont allow me to paste it there.
[11:21] <abhi_nav> Talu, sudo mv <source> <destinatin>
[11:21] <Talu> Hmm i try that then
[11:21] <NeverCast> abhi_nav, It doesn't install inside windows, It just convinces the average windows user that it has, so they can remove an entire oper' from Add/Remove.
[11:21] <abhi_nav> Talu, you do this thing from that account in which account that game was owned.
[11:22] <abhi_nav> NeverCast, ok. Still not understood. but is ok. leave it. lets see if we can help him.
[11:25] <NeverCast> abhi_nav, IF he can get back lol.
[11:25] <abhi_nav> NeverCast, :D lol really. yes it is here really a problem of broadband connection. I am also just lost you see? like that
[11:25] <Dr_Willis> abhi_nav:  it just has some 'tools' in windoss that let it be easially insatlled/removed with the windows add/remove program files applications/system :)
[11:26] <abhi_nav> Dr_Willis, so it doesnt act like a regular windows application?
[11:26] <NeverCast> abhi_nav, Nope it's not an application
[11:27] <abhi_nav> NeverCast, Dr_Willis ok. thanks.
[11:27] <NeverCast> abhi_nav, It just has an Application for adding and removing the distro (:
[11:27] <abhi_nav> NeverCast, I see
[11:27] <BPower> It's fixed now.
[11:27] <BPower> Thanks all!
[11:27] <blackthor> wookienz,  i would surely recommend reading the last paragraph of that URL
[11:28] <FloodBot1> !netsplit
[11:28] <blackthor> i'd backup copy the disks (byte per byte) first before messing with it
[11:28] <gamerx> hey, how do i check for wireless drivers i might need
[11:29] <gamerx> my wireless isnt working
[11:29] <blackthor> mmm... trying to figure out if ubuntu works fine on a HP ML150 G6 (which is "fairly new", not 'bleeding edge')  however, on the canonical site, HP compatibility list looks outdated  (no mentioning of 10.04), is there anybody that did a successful 10.04 install on that machine (incl raid ctrller) ?
[11:29] <abhi_nav> !wifi | gamerx
[11:29] <slow-motion> hi
[11:29] <gamerx> thanks abhi_nav
[11:30] <Ex-Opesa> Guys/gals, I installed sensor-applet
[11:31] <Ex-Opesa> also the command 'sensors' give me the output of temperature
[11:31] <Samara> hi, I have some problems after I update to 10.04 version. Grub cant start windows xp...somebody help me?
[11:31] <abhi_nav> Dr_Willis,
[11:31] <Ex-Opesa> But I can't see 'Hardware Sensors Monitor' when I right click on panel and do "add to panel".
[11:31] <abhi_nav> ohhh sorry nothing it was my mistake
[11:32] <jf1976> lo all a mate just handed me a half dead win7 laptop but ubuntu 10.04 live cant find the harddrive? any clues, im just grabbing a knoppix cd as well
[11:32] <Ex-Opesa> Do I need to restart gnome?
[11:32] <Talu> Does anyone know how i open the Copy/paste Root window?
[11:32] <Samara> hi, I have some problems after I update to 10.04 version. Grub cant start windows xp...somebody help me?
[11:32] <Ex-Opesa> Nevermind, my problem is solved ^^
[11:32] <abhi_nav> Talu, doesnt that command worked?
[11:32] <Talu> I cant get it to work.
[11:32] <jf1976> im guessing GPT? but the recover software is unable to find any partitions in fact it cant find the drive at all, but the windows recovery does start
[11:32] <Talu> Would be easier if i just can open the root window.
[11:33] <abhi_nav> Talu, what exact error it give while trying to copy paste?
[11:34] <Talu> I copy the folder and then when i try paste it in my HD the paste option is grayed out.
[11:34] <Mraii> Can anyone tell me what is the filename of the spanish console fonts? Under /usr/lib/share/consolefonts/
[11:34] <abhi_nav> Talu, tried doing this from admin account?
[11:34] <Talu> This is the admin account.
[11:35] <abhi_nav> Talu, tell me the location of the file and the location of the external hdd
[11:35] <abhi_nav> Talu, e.g. /home/user/filename etc
[11:35] <Talu> The location of the file is in my home folder and my external hd is at usb0
[11:36] <abhi_nav> Talu, can you give me exact location in proper format as I illustrated in e.g.?
[11:36] <gamerx> hi, i installed ubuntu minimal install and slim, and want to have it load on boot
[11:37] <Talu>  file 1 /home/talu/World of Warcraft and then my external hd is at usb0, dont know the location for it.
[11:37] <abhi_nav> Talu, try doing this sudo chown <fullfilenamewithproperaddress> and then try to copy paste
[11:38] <ivano> #ubuntu-it
[11:38] <Samara> hi, I have some problems after I update to 10.04 version. Grub cant start windows xp...somebody help me?
[11:39] <Jordan_U> Samara: What happens when you try to boot windows?
[11:39] <abhi_nav> Samara, http://www.ubuntux.org/node/9390
[11:40] <klax0n> سلام
[11:41] <jf1976> Samara: when you say update to 10.04 can you explain more about the original config before the update, im guessing dual boot 9.10 and xp ?
[11:41] <Guest84383> i am looking for help with finding an image resizer that works on ubuntu.  i tried to install vso but it is not trusted.....any help would be appreciated
[11:42] <syeki> Hello there. I am wondering how to start troubleshooting the freezes and crashes I am experiencing with my (Ubuntu 10.04) machine. Can anyone suggest where I should start?
[11:42] <Jordan_U> !ir | klax0n
[11:43] <iflema> Guest84383 The Gimp search gimp in the software centre
[11:43] <blackthor> Guest84383: you can resize images commandline using  imagemagick (convert)
[11:43] <Alice32> hi i have problem cant load ubuntu 9.10. and the info i  get when i try to load ubuntu is "cant find system files" how to sort it out? i had this sort of problem before i used command to scan systme files and than it worked i forgot what command i used before. any help?
[11:43] <Samara> jf, yes ubuntu is installed in external hd and windows an internal...quem i was using 9.10 both systems work fine...now when i select windows on grub menu it does not run...
[11:44] <Samara> jf1976, yes ubuntu is installed in external hd and windows an internal...quem i was using 9.10 both systems work fine...now when i select windows on grub menu it does not run...
[11:44] <Moult> my computer running ubuntu is connected to the internet via an ethernet cable. I would like other devices to connect to the internet by sharing its connection via wifi. is there a guide to do this?
[11:44] <jf1976> so you had ubuntu on external windows on internal and you boot were?
[11:44] <Jordan_U> Samara: Can you run this script: http://sourceforge.net/projects/bootinfoscript/  and pastebin the RESULTS.txt that it produces?
[11:44] <Archana> Hi.
[11:44] <klax0n> I khow but i want who iranian
[11:44] <Archana> Hello Am i visible ?
[11:45] <abhi_nav> yes Archana
[11:45] <blackthor> Moult: i suggest you could cheat of http://distrowatch.com/table.php?distribution=livecdrouter
[11:45] <Archana> Hi abhi_nav I cannot mount any of my windows drives
[11:45] <Guest84383> iflema - thank you - i have gimp - do you know how to use it to resize?
[11:45] <abhi_nav> !mount | Archana dunno more than this ;)
[11:45] <Guest84383> blockthor - thank you - how do i do that/get that?
[11:45] <Samara> before that grub was installed on external hd...
[11:46] <Moult> blackthor: sorry, not very useful, even though it does do what i want.
[11:46] <jf1976> running http://sourceforge.net/projects/bootinfoscript/ sounds like a plan ;) should find the location at least nice tool
[11:46] <scar_> how do i display the grub menu in lucid?
[11:46] <Jordan_U> scar_: Hold shift during boot.
[11:46] <Alice34> hi i have problem cant load ubuntu 9.10. and the info i  get when i try to load ubuntu is "cant find system files" how to sort it out? i had this sort of problem before i used command to scan system files and than it worked i forgot what command i used before. any help?
[11:47] <Archana> I get this when i try to open my windows drives . http://paste.ubuntu.com/459417/  Please see this. I reinstalled ntfs-3g using apt-get install --reinstall ntfs-3g and still of no use. How cam i do it now ?
[11:47] <jf1976> Archana: you need to use sudo or give your account the correct privs
[11:47] <jf1976> sudo mount
[11:48] <Archana> jf1976,
[11:48] <iflema> Guest84383 click on the image menu and select scale, once you have an image open
[11:48] <Ex-Opesa> I don't see hddtemp in hardware sensors applet in gnome, how to fix this problem?
[11:48] <Archana> jf1976, but it always used to work without sudo. I just used to click from places and it just worke
[11:48] <jf1976> check your group membership
[11:48] <Guest84383> iflema - yep, got that far....what then?  how do i know what scale to type in?  i just want to make images smaller to upload onto the net?
[11:48] <Archana> jf1976, I now use the admin account
[11:49] <syeki> I suspect my problem could be some thing to do with the graphics subsystem. How do I start toubleshooting? Are ther logs I could look at etc...
[11:49] <iflema> Guest84383 theres a percentage option say 50%?????
[11:50] <jf1976> admin account ? if your using ubuntu then there is a root account + an account (the first) you created that have higer privs but please dont login to you systems as root, just sudo
[11:50] <iflema> Guest84383 percentage of width and height
[11:50] <blackthor> Guest84383: http://www.imagemagick.org/www/mogrify.html
[11:50] <Guest84383> blackthor - thanks will look into it
[11:51] <blackthor> Guest84383: first command = resize to a certain % and overwrite the original file
[11:51] <Archana> jf1976, this is the account that was created during installation
[11:51] <jf1976> kk thats cool then
[11:51] <Archana> jf1976, 'cool' ?
[11:52] <Guest84383> iflema - can't see a percentage option.....and sorry - i don't understand your last comment....not overly computer literate!  what do you mean 'first command'?  i just opened the program, then clicked image and then scale image.
[11:53] <jf1976> use a shell [applications] --> [Accessories] --> [Terminal] and use #sudo mount {DEVICE}
[11:53] <scar_> thanks Jordan_U, google also told me to use shift but looks like i was just too slow ;) ps: i tried nouveau and it caused my pc to hang. I've now managed to switch back a semi-working nv driver
[11:53] <syeki> does anyone know of tools that could help me analyse a crashdump?
[11:53] <iflema> Guest84383 instead of 'pixels' select 'percentage' of width and height
[11:54] <sKeiths> i have a machine with tow netcards. sometimes after boot only one card works. it does not appear in ifconfig, it does not appear in lspci and it does not appear in dmesg. after reboot if appears everywhere its supposed to be. ubuntu version is hardy 8.04.2 kernel 2.6.22-14-server.
[11:55] <agajwani> quick question can you modify an existing symlink?
[11:55] <Samara> Jordan_U, ok, it produced a very long text, i didnt  get any about this...
[11:55] <spY|da> del +create new one?
[11:56] <Jordan_U> !pastebin | Samara
[11:56] <blackthor> sKeiths: i'd say, try replacing one of the netcards
[11:56] <vindu> Hello, for some reason my computer just won't boot the Ubuntu 10.04 x86 disc, but it wants to boot the x64 disc.
[11:56] <erUSUL> sKeiths: that looks like  hardware error ... maybe the card is loose on the pci slot ?
[11:57] <imgx64> Bash question: I have files that have spaces in their names, "for i in *" processes these files as two (example: "file one" as "file" and "one"), how do I make it treat them as one file?
[11:57] <erUSUL> imgx64: quote the name
[11:57] <Guest84383> iflema - thank you! didn't even see that option - cheers!
[11:57] <sKeiths> thanks blackthor and erUSUL. i'll make my 1st stop replacing the hardware.
[11:57] <erUSUL> imgx64: for file in *; do ... "$file" ...; done
[11:57] <shomon> hi, I don't have a "write to disk" option in nautilus, when I'm in "burn:///"
[11:58] <shomon> how do I get one? do I have to install a package?
[11:58] <erUSUL> !info nautilus-cd-burner
[11:58] <iflema> Guest84383 no dramas
[11:59] <Samara> this is the link :http://paste.ubuntu.com/459421/
[11:59] <imgx64> erUSUL: Oh, thanks. That's kinda unexpected.. But thanks for the help!
[11:59] <blackthor> i'm still trying to figure out if ubuntu works fine on a HP ML150 G6 (which is "fairly new", not 'bleeding edge')  however, on the canonical site, HP compatibility list looks outdated  (no mentioning of 10.04), is there anybody that did a successful 10.04 install on that machine (incl raid ctrller) ?
[11:59] <erUSUL> imgx64: well is expected if you know how the shell works ;P
[11:59] <shomon> cool, installing. Thanks erUSUL - how do you know these things?
[12:00] <stevecam> blackthor, i find that you have more chances of getting ubuntu working on a PC then windows
[12:00] <shomon> do I have to restart nautilus now though?
[12:00] <shomon> I just apt-get upgraded
[12:01] <shomon> I mean installed, oops
[12:01] <student> .........................
[12:01] <blackthor> stevecam: but i'm naturally concerned about (raid) driver crap, so that's why i try to inform myself first
[12:01] <student> 886
[12:01] <student> bay~bay~
[12:01] <blackthor> was once put in the situation that a  debian-based linux version (when ubuntu didn't exist ) did not support raid driver , and i ended up having to buy a separate raid card
[12:01] <stevecam> i don't know much about raid, but i know SATA seems to work fine
[12:02] <yoda___> hi
[12:02] <stevecam> how long ago was that?
[12:02] <yoda___> I need help guys
[12:02] <blackthor> i think 2005-2006
[12:02] <blackthor> i ended up installing redhat :(
[12:02] <erUSUL> blackthor: #ubuntu-server may be of more help.
[12:02] <yoda___> I can't connect anymore with ubuntu
[12:02] <blackthor> erUSUL: oh, thanks
[12:02] <yoda___> the connection icon disappear
[12:02] <stevecam> search your raid chipset and linux
[12:02] <Samara> Jordan_U, did you see the paste?
[12:02] <yoda___> can any1 help me?
[12:03] <blackthor> stevecam: yes there were some issues with the HP raid chipset but it's fairly undocumented... that's why i'm asking here ;)
[12:03] <erUSUL> blackthor: i expect linux to support the controller just fine this kind of server class hard is well supported.
[12:03] <blackthor> erUSUL: yes i'd expect that too until
[12:03] <Jordan_U> Samara: I do now that you have mentioned it (didn't before because you didn't use my nick in the message).
[12:03] <blackthor> i came onto the "HP partner" page of canonical
[12:03] <blackthor> where i only see an outdated list of  supported devices
[12:04] <blackthor> and the HP ML150 G6 not being in it
[12:04] <Jordan_U> Samara: You've accidentily installed grub to your windows partition.
[12:05] <Jordan_U> Samara: The first thing that you need to do is to configure the grub-pc package so that it doesn't install to any partitions, then recover your windows partition boot record with testdisk.
[12:05] <Samara> so, can i fix this without re-install all windows xp?
[12:05] <apapa> hi guys , how do i find out if my wifi device has its drivers installed right? Im on ubuntu 10.04
[12:05] <Jordan_U> Samara: Yes.
[12:07] <Samara> Jordan_U, testdisk is a linux program?
[12:07] <iceroot> apapa: using the wifi-device
[12:08] <apapa> iceroot: ?
[12:08] <yoda___> I need help
[12:08] <Samara> Jordan_U, is there any material that i can read to do this?
[12:08] <erUSUL> blackthor: which one is the controller Smart Array B110i SATA RAID or Smart Array P410 ?? the later seems to be well supported by linux cciss driver the former well not much info round the net ... seems to need a propietary controller
[12:09] <Jordan_U> Samara: "sudo dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc" to reconfigure the grub-pc package. It will ask you a few questions, the only one you need to change is the "install devices" one, where you need to uncheck all partitions. The rest you can leave at their default (some will be blank, that's normal)
[12:09] <abhi_nav> yoda___, right click panel add applet add application launchder then select from syste=>preference=>network connection
[12:10] <medicalwei> any mirror list for ports.ubuntu.com ?
[12:10] <yoda___> ok wait
[12:10] <rww> medicalwei: ports.ubuntu.com isn't mirrored that I know of
[12:10] <Jordan_U> Samara: Then to restore the windows partition boot record: http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/bootinfoscript/index.php?title=Boot_Problems:Boot_Sector
[12:11] <rww> oh, I lie, apparently it is.
[12:11] <dujuan> what.s this

[12:12] <jpds> medicalwei: No.
[12:12] <Samara> Jordan_U, thats all??
[12:12] <jpds> medicalwei: The only public mirror I'm aware of is: http://ftp.tu-chemnitz.de/pub/linux/ubuntu-ports/
[12:12] <Jordan_U> Samara: Yes.
[12:12] <medicalwei> iflema: no. that's cd images for ubuntu releases which is ported to various platforms.
[12:13] <rww> medicalwei: oh, wait, no. I was looking at the wrong thing and was right originally. It's not mir... oh, hello jpds.
[12:13] <jpds> rww: Ohai.
[12:14] <medicalwei> jpds: hmm...
[12:14] <Samara> Jordan_U, thank you guy, you're so cute. If you were around me i just kissed you.
[12:15] <Jordan_U> Samara: You're welcome.
[12:15] <jpds> medicalwei: What are you looking for/trying to accomplish?
[12:15]  * medicalwei is trying to mirroring ports.ubuntu.com, but it is slow from my internet connection.
[12:16] <Fudgey> how can i ge teh start and finish of my entire 32gig scsi drive? im using parted and didnt see it with 'print' or fdisk -l
[12:17] <erUSUL> Fudgey: post both commands output ?

[12:18] <jpds> medicalwei: Where are you based?
[12:18] <asig> qué bot tan espabilao! xD lol
[12:18] <medicalwei> jpds: university internet connection, sort if.
[12:18] <medicalwei> sort of
[12:18] <medicalwei> in Taiwan
[12:19] <jpds> medicalwei: Hmm, OK; I'm not aware of any ports mirrors in that area.
[12:20] <medicalwei> jpds: ok. thank you though. >w<
[12:21] <jpds> medicalwei: You might want to ask in #ubuntu-mirrors,the TW mirror admin hangs out there.
[12:21] <lee__> wow,, this is strange>> went to bed lastnite after logging off ubuntu UE,, nom am in some sort of KDE OS..
[12:21] <apapa> hi guys i have a wifi problem on a laptop with a (relatively) fresh install of lucid : http://pastebin.com/y8qzMXzS . Can someone help me?
[12:21] <vindu> Yes!
[12:21] <abhi_nav> lee__, it seems that aliens attacked you!
[12:21] <vindu> Found an old 9.04 cd to use!
[12:22] <lee__> ?? how dya mena
[12:22] <rww> lee__: Ultimate Edition isn't supported in this channel
[12:23] <medicalwei> jpds: I have his phone (andrewlee did you mean?) and he doesn't mirror ubuntu-ports either.
[12:23] <lee__> UE isnt an issue mucker
[12:23] <jpds> medicalwei: Ah, him. :)
[12:23] <medicalwei> neither
[12:24] <medicalwei> jpds: the reason why he doesn't mirror ubuntu-ports involves in some policy issues.
[12:24] <lee__> is there any way of seeing a list of last installed???
[12:24] <opij> isn't that quit message from Acasz malicious?
[12:24] <rww> opij: yes, hence the ban
[12:24] <erUSUL> lee__: synaptic has a hystoric log
[12:24] <jpds> medicalwei: Hmm, OK; wasn't aware of that.

[12:25] <Kream> Hi all. A quick question. How do I know if my running Ubuntu machine is running an amd64 release of Lucid or an i386 release of Lucid
[12:25] <Kream> ?
[12:25] <erUSUL> Kream: uname -m
[12:26] <opij> is there a list of bluetooth remotes that are compatible with ubuntu
[12:26] <Kream> erUSUL: Thanks!
[12:27] <Kream> that works
[12:27] <erUSUL> Kream: :)
[12:29] <apapa> hi guys i am having problems with my wifi: http://pastebin.com/y8qzMXzS . Can someone help me out?
[12:33] <crashev> anyone knows where APC (Alternative PHP Cache) holds its file in ubuntu ?
[12:34] <troll> Why wubi installation is not soo good?
[12:35] <kiasanth> hey all, I'm trying to setup outside access to my ftp server and web server, I've configured ufw to allow the ports but I still timeout trying to connect
[12:35] <^mNotIntelligent> hi all !
[12:36] <^mNotIntelligent> can someone help me with getting rid of annoying "Enter Password for default keyring to unlock
[12:36] <^mNotIntelligent> the application 'nm-applet' (/usr/bin/nm-applet) wants access to the default keyring, but it is locked." message
[12:36] <ubuntuuserrrr> why ubuntu installation is not better?
[12:36] <roland> firefox
[12:36] <private_meta> I accidentially activated screen magnification, how do I turn it off without logging off/on?
[12:36] <apapa> hi guys i am having problems with my wifi: http://pastebin.com/y8qzMXzS . Can someone help me out?
[12:36] <kiasanth> windows key and scroll down will zoom out
[12:36] <roland> firefox web browser
[12:37] <private_meta> kiasanth: ah thanks, I couldn't reproduce what I did
[12:37] <kiasanth> private_meta: I had the same problem a few weeks ago :)
[12:37] <private_meta> It's rather funny that only one screen is zoomed in :D
[12:38] <kiasanth> yeah, never thought about that, I have 4 screens hehe
[12:38] <kiasanth> you can zoom them separately though, which I think is better
[12:39] <MattoD> Hi all, i'm trying to install server 10.04 and its set to UK but failling to download packages on install. Should i set it to the USA when it asks for where i live
[12:39] <private_meta> kiasanth: Well, I meant "Screens" literally, monitors
[12:39] <kiasanth> Does anyone know how to access my ftp server from another computer over the Internet?
[12:39] <private_meta> kiasanth: or did you mean that as well?
[12:40] <kiasanth> private_meta: yeah, 4 monitors ;) not virtual desktops
[12:40] <private_meta> kiasanth: You can use a dynamic DNS service, Dyndns, forward your ports through your router and then access it
[12:40] <kiasanth> private_meta: done that, it's timing out though
[12:40] <private_meta> Do you have a stable SSH connection?
[12:40] <CaNoc> hello, i'm trying to install ATI driver from ATI, but when install fglrx*.deb, it show something like this : module build for the currently running kernel was skipped since the kernel source for this kernel does not seem to be installed
[12:41] <private_meta> kiasanth: Maybe the ingong connection itself is problematic... if SSH works, why not use SCP?
[12:41] <kiasanth> I forwarded my ports in  the router, allowed them in ufw, and got dynDNS resolving perfectly, still no access though
[12:41] <freetime> hi , i have the next problem i type ps -u nagios | wc -l , and i get 297 processes , after thet i try to kill it with kill -9 `ps -u nagios  -o pid=`, and the processes refused to be killed how to slove this
[12:42] <CaNoc> i've install some package for compile : build-essential, ... but it not work
[12:42] <private_meta> kiasanth: Passive?
[12:42] <kiasanth> CaNoc: you have to install the kernel sources
[12:42] <kiasanth> private_meta: let me check
[12:43] <CaNoc> kiasanth: only linux-source, package kernel-source not found , that's strange
[12:43] <lee__> awww,, i got it.. pretty strange.. KDE got set as default some how..
[12:43] <private_meta> kiasanth: again, why not use SCP? Is it for someone else you don't want to give shell access to?
[12:43] <kiasanth> private_meta: yeah, I don't want them to have full access
[12:43] <private_meta> ok...
[12:44] <private_meta> Then again, ssh doesn't mean full access, but it would be a bitch to configure
[12:44] <apapa> hi guys my wifi card is not being recognized and I cannot attach to nearby AP's : http://pastebin.com/y8qzMXzS Can someone please help me?
[12:45] <^mNotIntelligent> bye all
[12:45] <private_meta> kiasanth: Well, check if it's set for passive connection or maybe you forgot the port range forwarding for the ports used by the server
[12:45] <kiasanth> private_meta: yeah, passive fails too, got 20 and 21 allowed on tcp
[12:45] <private_meta> Whew... it's been quite a long time since I had an FTP server running XD
[12:47] <private_meta> kiasanth: sure you've got the correct IP ranges for these ports you've allowed through?
[12:47] <kiasanth> I'm allowing all ip's
[12:48] <private_meta> It's been so long I actually set up an FTP server that I'm slightly out of ideas already, sorry >_<
[12:48] <sKeiths> as a quick thought. i know i can't connect to my ftpservers using my outside ip address, but everybody else on the net can connect.
[12:48] <kiasanth> I'm using pure-ftp and it is listening for ftp connections on tcp and tcp6
[12:48] <kiasanth> according to netstat -tap
[12:48] <private_meta> kiasanth: can you connect from the inside?
[12:48] <kiasanth> I can indeed
[12:49] <kiasanth> locally and intranet
[12:49] <kiasanth> just not internet
[12:49] <Clouse>  Hello all here is Ubuntu land. I hope all is good in your little corner of the universe. I have a strong desire to successfully boot Ubuntu 10.04 Live CD ISO over the network but this has alluded me for many days now. Now I am all good with PXE, TFTP and NFS all of these are work from me just fine but I am getting constantly stuck at where the Live CD attempts to mount a CD at /cdrom/ and complains lanes that I haven't specified a name. Anyone know where t
[12:49] <Clouse> o point me for the answer?
[12:50] <kiasanth> private_meta: my DynDNS domain is kiasanth.game-host.org
[12:50] <kiasanth> which resolves and pings fine
[12:50] <private_meta> well, not for me
[12:50] <kiasanth> hmm
[12:51] <private_meta> I can't ping it
[12:51] <kiasanth> try 122.149.232.82
[12:51] <private_meta> Not that it SHOULD make any difference anyway, no it doesn't work
[12:52] <private_meta> but maybe you just deactivated ping
[12:52] <kiasanth> hmmm
[12:52] <private_meta> I get the ftp welcome message
[12:53] <private_meta> But I wouldn't have a login anyway
[12:53] <kiasanth> I haven't actually tried it from a pc outside my network
[12:53] <maxwellian> Clouse: That all sounds very foreign to me, but maybe it will turn out to be a simple error to fix.  Can you paste the error message to paste.ubuntu.com?
[12:53] <kiasanth> I just tried using the internet address, maybe that's an issue
[12:53] <private_meta> what do you mean?
[12:53] <private_meta> ah
[12:53] <maxwellian> !screenshot > maxwellian
[12:54] <kiasanth> it's got a web page running on it, wanna try that for me?
[12:54] <private_meta> I'd rather prefer a "Jack Sheppard" to a "Benjamin Sheppard", but the page works
[12:55] <Oer> kiasanth, i see Database server connection established Database selected David  .....
[12:55] <Dr_Willis> !netboot
[12:55] <kiasanth> seems to work then
[12:55] <kiasanth> thanks
[12:55] <private_meta> kiasanth: if you supply me with a test user and password for the ftp server, I could test that for you
[12:55] <kiasanth> ok
[12:55] <private_meta> All I can see now is the welcome message and login
[12:55] <kiasanth> 1 sec, making one
[12:59] <PrebenR> Hi. ANybody here know how to setup multimedia keys for ubuntu 10.04?
[13:00] <maxwellian> !multimedia
[13:00] <maxwellian> Hmmm...not right.
[13:01] <Gryllida> What package is responsible for unix style copy paste? It works unstably here on Lucid, I am thinking about reinstalling the package.
[13:01] <Dr_Willis> PrebenR:  it will depend on the keyboard to some degree. Most all the ones i have these days work with no tweaking whatsoever
[13:02] <Niglop> how do i restart x display
[13:02] <maxwellian> Gryllida: Sorry, what does "unix style copy paste" mean?
[13:03] <steffan> !x | Niglop
[13:03] <Gryllida> maxwellian: select block of text to 'copy', middle click to paste.
[13:03] <maxwellian> Gryllida: Oh, so it skips having to manually copy and whatnot?
[13:04] <AnxiousNut> Is there an offline dictionary with GUI in the repo?
[13:05] <Gryllida> maxwellian: well, it works from one app to another, and from terminal to terminal, but from gedit to gedit, it doesn't paste, though from gedit to firefox or terminal is fine
[13:07] <its-me-again> hi all i am wanting to find some info on how to install grub1 to a sd card. 1. how big does the card need to be and 2.how can i do it.
[13:07] <Gryllida> maxwellian: what can I do about it?
[13:07] <Gryllida> !grub1
[13:07] <Gryllida> !grub
[13:07] <maxwellian> Gryllida: Hmmm...sorry, I don't know anything about it.  Based on what you're saying I'd guess that gedit is eating the middle click before it gets processed for the paste.
[13:08] <GNU\colossus> hi there. does anyone of you know where I can fund the x-fixes PPA maintainer(s) on freenode?
[13:08] <maxwellian> Gryllida: Is gedit the only program pasting doesn't work for?
[13:08] <steffan> GNU\colossus: check their Launchpad page
[13:09] <maxwellian> Gryllida: Oh, or I should ask: did you say you could paste into gedit from another app, say, Firefox?
[13:09] <trijntje> I have opened a network location in ubuntu, but how can I tell a program to open a file in the external map?
[13:10] <smz> hello
[13:10] <Gryllida>  maxwellian: yes from gedit to firefox/terminal is fine. it does work for emacs, terminal, firefox, but not gedit, and not OOo.
[13:10] <Gryllida> hi smz
[13:10] <smz> i have a problem witch munin and switch
[13:10] <Gryllida> trijntje, just double click some directory, it will open its contents?
[13:10] <prash> Gryllida, have you tried glipper.  It is not installed by default.  Dont know if anyone has an opinion on it.
[13:10] <Gryllida> !details | smz
[13:11] <tomatto_> please, is some graphical utility for mounting iso image?
[13:11] <smz> switch is ip 12.0.0.251
[13:11] <Gryllida>  prash, bah, I want the unix style copy paste to work everywhere like it does in some apps, something seems to be just misconfigured
[13:11] <trijntje> Gryllida, I can only see the directory in the "place" menu, and that doesnt show in the file-open dialog of the program..
[13:11] <smz> i add entry to munin.conf
[13:11] <smz> [switch]
[13:11] <Niglop> whats the shortcut to opening terminal or a command line?
[13:12] <smz> address 12.0.0.251
[13:12] <WellDone> How do I turn off the powerdown in Ubuntu 10.04?
[13:12] <smz> but in log is connection refused
[13:12] <trijntje> tomatto_, furius iso mount
[13:12] <trijntje> WellDone, system -> preferences -> power
[13:12] <rical> has anyone used gtmess?
[13:12] <tomatto_> trijntje: is that in repository named as furius?
[13:12] <maxwellian> !anyone | rical
[13:13] <Gryllida> trijntje: /home/user/.gvfs/ is where you might be able to find it
[13:13] <trijntje> tomatto_, yes
[13:13] <smz> how add to munin swich wit only ip no dns name it is possible ?
[13:14] <trijntje> Gryllida, thanks, its there. Strange place to located something like that, it should have a shortcut on the desktop like removable media
[13:14] <WellDone> trijntje: Thanks
[13:15] <GNU\colossus> steffan: no info there regarding IRC. guess I'll look for another way then.
[13:15] <GNU\colossus> is there a PPA featuring Mozilla Thunderbird 3.1, or an unbranded build of that version?
[13:15] <Gryllida> trijntje, it usually does, after you mount it
[13:16] <Niglop> whats the shortcut to opening terminal or a command line?
[13:16] <Niglop> my desktop isnt responding
[13:16] <Niglop> :s
[13:16] <maxwellian> Gryllida: If you're still looking for the package name, could be X Clipboard?
[13:17] <trijntje> Gryllida, It did... I really need to clean up my desktop.. Thanks for your help
[13:17] <domovoi> can anyone  suggest a program to use in ubuntu that works the same as imgburn in windows so i can burn my 360 backups
[13:17] <trijntje> Niglop, ctrl + alt + f1, ctrl +alt + f7 to get back to your desktop
[13:17] <Gryllida> trijntje, yay, it's fine now :)
[13:18] <Gryllida> domovoi, applications, sound and video, brasero disk player _might_ do it, never tried though
[13:18] <Gryllida> domovoi,s/player/burner
[13:19] <domovoi> gryllida yah i know about brasero but i cant put in the layer break
[13:19] <x-warrior`> how can I remove some commands from an user? Let's say I don't want user AAA to execute the command who, so How can I block it?
[13:20] <AnxiousNut> no one answered my question about a decent offline dictionary for ubuntu, i just wanna let you know there's a good one i found, it's called Artha! for future reference!
[13:21] <maxwellian> AnxiousNut: Thanks, sorry your question got buried in all these joins/parts. :P
[13:21] <maxwellian> AnxiousNut: For me, anyway, smarter people turn them off I think.
[13:21] <its-me-again> ok no onw here knows anything about where i can get grub one from then adn how to put it on a sd card
[13:21] <terraplane> hi all
[13:22] <terraplane> I need your help
[13:22] <x-warrior`> how can I remove some commands from an user? Let's say I don't want user AAA to execute the command who, so How can I block it?
[13:22] <tomatto_> trijntje: it isn't in main repositories.
[13:22] <AnxiousNut> maxwellian, it's okay, i just do that so that whoever didnt know a solution, get to know it :)
[13:22] <maxwellian> AnxiousNut: Very Ubuntu of you, thanks. :)
[13:23] <maxwellian> AnxiousNut: Just pulled up the homepage for it now. :)
[13:23] <trijntje> tomatto_, I find it in applications -> ubuntu software store : search for "furius", maybe you need to enable some extra repositories
[13:23] <maxwellian> !help | terraplane
[13:23] <tomatto_> trijntje: i am trying apt-get install furius
[13:24] <tomatto_> trijntje: what extra repositories?
[13:24] <terraplane> My console can't recognize a command (rails) after reboot. I try fix it (export PATH=$PATH:/var/lib/gems/1.8/bin;  locate rails |grep -e "bin/rails$"; )  but after reboot it is gone again
[13:24] <ronoc> anyone help with this?
[13:24] <ronoc> I just installed ubuntu 10.04 on a Dell Optiplex GX260 Pentium 4 machine
[13:25] <ronoc> And I keep getting black screens periodically...sporadically?
[13:25] <ronoc> What can I do to diagnose/fix issue?
[13:25] <trijntje> tomatto_, just use the software store to install
[13:25] <beegel> tomatto_, sudo apt-get install furiusisomount
[13:26] <ronoc> No way to wake machine up after a black screen it seems....
[13:26] <maxwellian> x-warrior`: What are you actually trying to do?  Do you actually have a problem with users running 'who', or is that just an example?
[13:26] <PrebenR> Dr_Willis, I have Asus Eee 1000H. After Ubuntu 10.04. Only some of the hotkeys work and the wireless do not work anymore. Getting tired of having to spend a lot of effort with every new version to fix things that break. I thought 10.04 was a LTS
[13:26] <tomatto_> and please, how can i use intel original drivers for 3d support?
[13:26] <joris> Is it possible to convert an openoffice template to MS office template?
[13:26] <terraplane> ronoc, did you install drivers?
[13:26] <x-warrior`> maxwellian: just an example. I want to block some commands to some users.
[13:27] <maxwellian> I always get a little nervous when the Floodbots op up...
[13:27] <x-warrior`> maxwellian: why?
[13:27] <maxwellian> x-warrior`: Nothing, I'm just being stupid out loud.
[13:28] <ronoc> terraplane: Nope - I followed a series of steps onutlined on www.theregister.com
[13:28] <ronoc> Just flash (icetea6 plugin I think)  for multimedia stuff like that
[13:28] <ganesh> hi
[13:28] <maxwellian> x-warrior`: I don't know of a general solution to your problem.  If the user has a shell, they can generally execute utilities on the machine.
[13:29] <apapa> hi guys Im trying to follow the following guide: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam/Old/HPMini311 to install the wifi device on my laptop ; Its for jaunty but its the only documentation available for enabling my wifi chipset(Broadcom 4322AGN 802.11bgn)
[13:29] <apapa> how do i "2. Install the linux-backports-modules-jaunty package  "
[13:29] <ronoc> terraplane: This is the specific link http://www.theregister.co.uk/2010/06/24/reg_linux_guide_3/page2.html
[13:29] <beegel> x-warrior`, one way would be to take away the root access.  Also remove write access to .profile for that user and alias that command.
[13:29] <Guest94730> is any gtalk  software in ubuntu
[13:29] <maxwellian> x-warrior`: But if you can give me a little more detail, there might be something that works for your situation.
[13:29] <frag4now> hi all. I get an error with spumux it own to dvdauthor. My issue is this: http://www.kdenlive.org/mantis/view.php?id=832 there is written that bug is solved. Where can I find .deb package with bug fixed? thanks
[13:29] <tomatto_> beegel: how name have original drivers for install?
[13:29] <beegel> x-warrior`, never implemented it :-)
[13:30] <ronoc> terraplane: but the issue occurred before and after I updated
[13:30] <terraplane> ronoc, before you should install driver for your video card
[13:30] <maxwellian> x-warrior`: What are you trying to keep people from doing?
[13:30] <Guest94730> yes
[13:30] <ronoc> terraplane: where can I find out how to do that?
[13:31] <terraplane> it depend on what type of video installed in your laptop
[13:31] <ronoc> it's a desktop
[13:31] <apapa> hi guys Im trying to follow the following guide: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam/Old/HPMini311 to install the wifi device on my laptop ; Its for jaunty but its the only documentation available for enabling my wifi chipset(Broadcom 4322AGN 802.11bgn); how do i "2. Install the linux-backports-modules-jaunty package  "?
[13:31] <terraplane> oops
[13:31] <x-warrior`> maxwellian:  and beegel  I will take a look in .profile if I can't do I come back, now i'm at class so I can't talk so much.
[13:31] <x-warrior`> thanks! and have a nice day!
[13:31] <x-warrior`> :D
[13:31] <terraplane> I know how to do it for nvidia
[13:31] <Guest94730> hello friends.  how can install gtalk from my desktop?
[13:32] <GNU\colossus> hm. No xorg-video-intel 2.12 yet for Ubuntu 10.04. crap.
[13:32] <terraplane> i cant help if you have ATI card
[13:32] <frag4now> hi all. I get an error with spumux it own to dvdauthor. My issue is this: http://www.kdenlive.org/mantis/view.php?id=832 there is written that bug is solved. Where can I find .deb package with bug fixed? thanks
[13:32] <erUSUL> apapa: sudo aptitude install linux-backports-modules-jaunty
[13:32] <ronoc> any easy way to find out what card I have?
[13:33] <maxwellian> frag4now: Hold on, I'll take a look.
[13:33] <apapa> erUSUL: should i change it to lucid?
[13:34] <kohlrak> figures
[13:34] <frag4now> maxwellian: thanks. my dvdauthor version is version 0.6.14
[13:34] <kohlrak> the one time i need this room to be busy, it ain't
[13:34] <terraplane> ronoc try to open System>Administration>Hardware Drivers
[13:34] <erUSUL> apapa: you can do it if you want. did you installed b43-fwcutter yet ? that's the main package you need for broadcom b43xx cards to work
[13:34] <terraplane> ubuntu must automatically try to search drivers
[13:34] <ronoc> terraplane: did that - says no "proprietary drivers installed"
[13:34] <erUSUL> apapa: you have to install it while connected via wired to internet
[13:34] <Max> hi
[13:35] <terraplane> yep, it is
[13:35] <scar_> how can I check what version of xorg/nouveau I have? glxinfo just prints out Xlib: extention "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
[13:35] <kohlrak> people, do me a favor and have alot of problems so while i'm taking a shower my wireless card can be tested (i'm testing for connection stability)
[13:35] <apapa> erUSUL: i have a 3g connection, thatd do?
[13:35] <erUSUL> apapa: yes; so do « sudo aptitude install b43-fwcutter »
[13:36] <terraplane> can you choose a driver in that dialog?
[13:36] <erUSUL> apapa: it needs to download the firmware for the card becouse the **##@@*&*** at broadcom would not allow redistribution by linux vendors of said firmware files
[13:36] <flamb1> ciao!
[13:36] <flamb1> List!
[13:36] <erUSUL> !it | flamb1
[13:36] <ronoc> terraplane: nope: no drivers appear - it's an empty list
[13:37] <erUSUL> apapa: tell me when the install is complete
[13:37] <kohlrak> my realtek WAN problems are interesting... XD
[13:37] <maxwellian> frag4now: What package provides the software for you?  dvdauthor?
[13:37] <terraplane> it's bad (
[13:37] <frag4now> maxwellian: yes
[13:37] <kohlrak> apparently the kernel team is not using the updated wifi driver from realtek despite it being out since the last couple kernels
[13:37] <maxwellian> !info dvdauthor
[13:38] <sgronblo> Can I disable ipv6 for apt-get?
[13:38] <kohlrak> sgronblo: and everything else too
[13:38] <apapa> erUSUL: alright done
[13:38] <maxwellian> frag4now: According to that page, the bug has been fixed in version 0.7.6, which means you will probably not see the update in package form for a while.
[13:39] <apapa> erUSUL: do i restart or what now/
[13:39] <erUSUL> apapa: to avoid rebootin the machine do « sudo modprobe -r b43 && sudo modprobe b43 »
[13:39] <sgronblo> kohlrak: Well apt-get seems to be the only thing affected by poorly working ipv6 for me.
[13:39] <frag4now> maxwellian: weird. I updated ubuntu today with apt-get update...
[13:39] <michalxo> Hello! could anyone tell me please, how to turn on wifi button via software on lucid? (amilo li1718 laptop)
[13:39] <erUSUL> apapa: and tell me if you see a wlan0 in « iwconfig » output
[13:39] <maxwellian> frag4now: Right, but in our Ubuntu repositories, the latest version is what you have.
[13:39] <frag4now> oh you mean that fix is not added yet
[13:39] <erUSUL> michalxo: with rfkill maybe
[13:39] <maxwellian> frag4now: Exactly.
[13:40] <frag4now> maxwellian: ok how can I install the 0.7.bla version?
[13:40] <apapa> erUSUL: no, not
[13:40] <amokpaule> Hello, when i work with severall workspaces is the a shortcut to reach them insted on pressing with the mouse on the symbol?
[13:40] <frag4now> maxwellian: can you give me svn link?
[13:40] <michalxo> I saw some scripts in /etc/acpi/
[13:40] <erUSUL> apapa: do « dmesg | tail -n 25 » and paste output to pastebin
[13:40] <michalxo> apapa how then?
[13:40] <erUSUL> !paste | apapa
[13:40] <maxwellian> frag4now: Hold on, looking...
[13:40] <michalxo> sorry apapa :-)
[13:41] <erUSUL> michalxo: sudo rfkill unblock wifi
[13:41] <michalxo> erUSUL thanks, I'll try...
[13:41] <NullSet_> hey, is there a way to switch from ubuntu to windows and back to ubuntu faster from a dual boot?
[13:42] <michalxo> NullSet_ ?
[13:42] <beegel> NullSet_, virtualization
[13:42] <maxwellian> frag4now: Hmmm...I went to their Sourceforge page and their latest release is only 0.6.18
[13:42] <NullSet_> virtualization? could you explain?
[13:42] <amokpaule> NullSet maybe have a look at virtualisation, here a good prog is virtualbox
[13:43] <sgronblo> I'm still on ubuntu 9.10 and usually when I try to install something through apt-get when on wlan, apt-get seems to try to connect to an ipv6 address first (which takes a long time) and then gives up and goes with the ipv4 address.
[13:43] <frag4now> maxwellian: what's their sourceforge page?
[13:43] <apapa> erUSUL: heres what you want : http://pastebin.com/9qudFnFC Here's what Ive done before :http://pastebin.com/y8qzMXzS
[13:43] <beegel> NullSet_, as amokpaule said google virtualbox or vmware
[13:43] <maxwellian> frag4now: So unless I'm in the wrong place (http://sourceforge.net/projects/dvdauthor/files/), you'll have to get it from the svn repo, as you said.
[13:43] <sgronblo> Now it takes a really long time for me to try to upgrade to 10.04 with update-manager and I suspect it might be related to the ipv6 problem.
[13:43] <michalxo> erUSUL it did not work...
[13:43] <kiasanth> ok, got my ftp working but my users have too much access, they can CD out of their home dir, is there some specific UID I need to give them to prevent this?
[13:44] <frag4now> they're speaking about some svn version...but i can't find the link there (my link) so i'm going to install it from sources with your link
[13:44] <michalxo> erUSUL U am going to read some manual.. :-)
[13:44] <terraplane> My console can't recognize a command (rails) after reboot. I try fix it (export PATH=$PATH:/var/lib/gems/1.8/bin;  locate rails |grep -e "bin/rails$"; )  but after reboot it is gone again. What can I do?
[13:44] <erUSUL> apapa: maybe the wifi is disabled via a key ?
[13:44] <maxwellian> frag4now: That link won't help you.
[13:45] <michalxo> erUSUL yes it is, that's why I want to turn it on.. key does not work at all.. only in windwos
[13:45] <erUSUL> michalxo: sudo rfkill list all
[13:45] <michalxo> soft and hardblocked NO
[13:45] <erUSUL> apapa: or switch... do  « sudo rfkill list all »
[13:45] <apapa> erUSUL: umm when I hit it , it turns blue and the bluetooth turns on but I dont think the wifi turns on; again how do I check?
[13:45] <maxwellian> frag4now: Unless I'm reading it wrong, they're saying that the fix was in a version that is more recent than the one they have available to download.
[13:45] <steffan> kiasanth: https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/keeping-safe/C/users.html
[13:46] <erUSUL> apapa: do « iwconfig » see if wlan0 appeared.
[13:46] <kiasanth> steffan: thanks
[13:46] <apapa> nope
[13:46] <valium> what key do i press during boot that will let me skip a service from loading
[13:46] <apapa> erUSUL: nope
[13:46] <terraplane> ronoc, run this command: xvinfo
[13:46] <erUSUL> apapa: do  « sudo rfkill list all » please
[13:46] <NeverCast> http://xkcd.com/340/
[13:46] <maxwellian> frag4now: Doesn't seem to add up to me, I don't know why they would have version numbers if they haven't released the code yet...
[13:47] <apapa> erUSUL: 1: hci0: Bluetooth	Soft blocked: no	Hard blocked: no
[13:47] <maxwellian> frag4now: svn revision numbers, sure.
[13:47] <kiasanth> steffan: that didn't help, my users are  virtual users in a database not actual users
[13:47] <mottafuker> ive installed a jboss in my ubuntu but i cant find his folder or his service, can someone help me?
[13:47] <michalxo> erUSUL so it's not soft and hard blocked... how to turn it on? echo on > /somewhere?/
[13:47] <ronoc> terraplane: sorry about that actually blackscreened on me as I was running System Test on the "video Tests"
[13:47] <ronoc> had to reboot
[13:47] <steffan> kiasanth: sorry, I didn't see you stating that
[13:47] <erUSUL> michalxo: really dunno; sorry.
[13:47] <kiasanth> steffan: sorry, forgot to state it hehe
[13:48] <ronoc> thought it might actually tell me about my video card
[13:48] <adudutz> I was upgrading from Xubuntu 9.10 to 10.04 using the alternative cd, and then I removed the Xubuntu desktop using the command posted in Psychocats and installed lubuntu-desktop meta package. The problem is, when I installed pcmanfm2 from the Lubuntu PPA, it doesn't draw the desktop. Also, I have to return to the login screen in order for me to shut the PC down. Any suggestion?
[13:48] <mottafuker> ive installed a jboss in my ubuntu but i cant find his folder or his service, can someone help me?
[13:48] <erUSUL> apapa: only BT ? :( did you blacklisted b43? maybe tried to install ndiswrapper or something ...
[13:48] <apapa> erUSUL: im sorry what
[13:49] <etrisnanto> hellp
[13:49] <etrisnanto> hello
[13:49] <etrisnanto>  :)
[13:49] <erUSUL> apapa: i'm asking if  you tried to follow some other howto to make your card work ...
[13:49] <blendmaster1024> serious network problem: I'm dropping about 50% of the packets I try to send across the internet. as far as I can tell it's only happening on my box.
[13:50] <erUSUL> !hi | etrisnanto
[13:50] <blendmaster1024> the strange part is that anything not sent towards the internet works perfectly.
[13:50] <apapa> erUSUL: hmm yeah but I dont think i did any ndiswrapper
[13:50] <blendmaster1024> even more strange, the packets that DO get through go just as fast as they're supposed to
[13:50] <frag4now> maxwellian: I can't neither be able to find their svn...
[13:51] <erUSUL> apapa: please do « grep b43 /etc/modprobe.d/ »
[13:51] <blendmaster1024> erUSUL, that won't work. try « grep b43 /etc/modprobe.d/ -r »
[13:51] <abhi_nav> heluuu!!! m back again!!!
[13:51] <maxwellian> frag4now: Worse than that, I DID find a page for a Git repository... :P
[13:51] <erUSUL> apapa: yes is « grep -R b43 /etc/modprobe.d/ »
[13:52] <maxwellian> frag4now: http://github.com/ldo/dvdauthor
[13:52] <frag4now> oh fine...
[13:52] <frag4now> why? do you dislike git?
[13:53] <maxwellian> frag4now: No, it concerns me, because we might actually have two different packages here.
[13:53] <apapa> erUSUL: HOLD ON IM LOADING UP PASTEBIN
[13:53] <apapa> erUSUL: oops
[13:53] <erUSUL> why compiling from source ? ...
[13:53] <apapa> erUSUL: http://pastebin.com/DX2hvXMw
[13:53] <frag4now> maxwellian: oh...
[13:53] <maxwellian> frag4now: Git doesn't have svn revision numbers, so it doesn't really line up.
[13:54] <erUSUL> apapa: looks like you have b43 blacklisted ... Used System>Admin...>Hardware drivers ?
[13:54] <frag4now> what? it has revision numbers
[13:54] <valium> how do i reconfigure X server in 10.4?
[13:55] <michalxo> erUSUL do you know here any other skilled "helper"?
[13:55] <maxwellian> frag4now: I've never used it, but I thought they used a hash instead of a revision number.
[13:56] <erUSUL> michalxo: a few; but they are not around now. and pinging them would be no polite. they help when they can...
[13:56] <apapa> erUSUL: a. I dont know what that means "blacklisted". b. I dont see any wireless drivers in the sys>admin>hwdrivers, only ati drivers(which are not installed)
[13:56] <erUSUL> michalxo: try later
[13:56] <frag4now> i guess it's the same for git each commit generates an hash that is your revision number...
[13:56] <michalxo> well.. it's just that I can't use internet there.. and I am a bit in a hurry :-(
[13:56] <michalxo> thanks anyway erUSUL
[13:56] <erUSUL> apapa: blacklisted means that the system will not use the driver even if we told it to.
[13:57] <apapa> erUSUL: ok, how do we unblacklist it
[13:57] <erUSUL> apapa: dunno who/what blacklisted b43 but it did it twice
[13:57] <erdem-ati> i downloaded fglrx-installer_8.660.orig.tar.gz  BUT dont know how  to install it, pls tell me how
[13:57] <erland> welcome
[13:57] <maxwellian> frag4now: Anyway, I suggest you get on the mailing list or whatever to find out how to get the patch you need.
[13:57] <Dr_Willis> erland:  you have tried the ati drivers in the repos first?
[13:58] <duli> I've created a new wireless connection in Networkmanager (U 10.04) and have connected my iPhone to it. However, I can't browse from my iPhone. Any clues?
[13:58] <erUSUL> apapa: edit both /etc/modprobe.d/broadcom-sta-common.conf and /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-bcm43.conf with a text editor and put a # i front of everyline that begins with blacklist
[13:58] <erUSUL> apapa: you know how to edit files as root ?
[13:58] <apapa> sudo gedit?
[13:58] <terry> duli: Is your Iphone jailbroke?
[13:58] <tomatto_> how can i install proprietary drivers?
[13:58] <erUSUL> apapa: gksudo gedit
[13:59] <apapa> erUSUL: whats gk do?
[13:59] <duli> terry: What's jailbroke?
[13:59] <frag4now> maxwellian: yeah install from sources is a bit frustrating under ubuntu...
[13:59] <erUSUL> apapa: for graphical apps
[13:59] <erUSUL> !gksudo | apapa
[13:59] <erland> Not yet, Dr_Willis
[13:59] <BluesKaj> duli, iphone connected to a laptop ?
[13:59] <erdem-ati> tomatto_:  type jockey-gtk  in console
[13:59] <erland> how could i do?
[13:59] <Dr_Willis> erland:  well I would use the hardware-drivers tool first.  Its in the system menu
[13:59] <duli> BluesKaj: yes, wirelessly
[13:59] <terry> duli: http://www.jailbreak-my-iphone.com/?gclid=CPbV54-41KICFSEJswod2EezwQ
[14:00] <ronoc> HELP!! Sporadic black screens
[14:00] <ronoc> what am i to do?
[14:00] <maxwellian> frag4now: It can be, but you should already have the dependencies worked out, since you already have it installed.
[14:00]  * Dr_Willis wonders if using the hardware-drivers tool is mentioned in the ubuntu manual
[14:00] <apapa> erUSUL: interesting, hey in the .conf file, the first line says : # wl module from Broadcom conflicts with ssb
[14:00] <Dr_Willis> ronoc:  give more details for starters
[14:00] <erdem-ati> : i downloaded fglrx-installer_8.660.orig.tar.gz  BUT dont know how  to install it, pls tell me how
[14:00] <terry> ronoc: Do you have desktop effects enabled?
[14:00] <ronoc> Nope
[14:00] <maxwellian> frag4now: And if you need help once you get the source, come on back! :)
[14:00] <apapa> erUSUL: i guess i will need to disable ssb, whatever that is?
[14:00] <frag4now> maxwellian: yes but i'm not sure to get autotools properly installed
[14:01] <tomatto_> erdem-ati: what is for?
[14:01] <mottafuker> ive installed a jboss in my ubuntu but i cant find his folder or his service, can someone help me?
[14:01] <duli> terry: Hum, not sure that's what I need. I already have internet access in my notebook.
[14:01] <BluesKaj> duli,  then your iphone is not connecting , it's your laptop that has preceence with NM
[14:01] <erland> Dr_Willis: I will check it. Thanks
[14:01] <Guest99101> sdfsdf
[14:01] <BluesKaj> precedence
[14:02] <erUSUL> apapa: no; just do what i told you.
[14:02] <erdem-ati> how can i install .run files ?
[14:02] <erUSUL> erdem-ati: what are you trying to install ?
[14:03] <erdem-ati> erUSUL:  ati-driver-installer-10-6-x86.x86_64.run
[14:03] <BluesKaj> duli, are you trying to use the iphone as a gateway ?
[14:03] <duli> BluesKaj: Hum, I remeber one time I created a NM share and other laptops could connect to it with no problem. I think I was using Fedora back then (but that should be irrelevant)...
[14:03] <erUSUL> erdem-ati: System>Admin...>hardware drivers no working for you ?
[14:03] <erdem-ati> erUSUL: nope, it doesnt show any driver
[14:03] <maxwellian> frag4now: We'll cross that bridge when we come to it.  Otherwise, if the bug's not too annoying, just wait until the package is updated. :)
[14:03] <erUSUL> erdem-ati: next step try to use envyng
[14:04] <erUSUL> !envyng | erdem-ati
[14:04] <PETERsm> alle volte mi chiedo chi me lha fatta fare
[14:04] <tomatto_> please, do you have someone xorg.conf configured for intel 945gme
[14:04] <PETERsm> boooo
[14:04] <tomatto_> ?
[14:04] <apapa> erUSUL: hey in the second file, the first line says the following : # Warning: This file is autogenerated by bcmwl. All changes to this file will be lost.
[14:04] <maxwellian> !it | PETERsm
[14:04] <apapa> erUSUL: will this make a difference?
[14:05] <apapa> erUSUL: ok well ive made the changes to the following : broadcom-sta-common.conf & blacklist-bcm43.conf
[14:05] <apapa>  
[14:05] <erUSUL> apapa: well yes. uninstall (if you have them installed bcmwl-kernel-source and bcmwl-modaliases )
[14:06] <tomatto_> is some 3d drivers for intel?
[14:06] <tomatto_> graphics?
[14:06] <erdem-ati> erUSUL: i cannot find envyng-gtk in synaptic
[14:06] <erUSUL> !find envyng
[14:07] <erUSUL> ouch,... outdated factoid ...
[14:07] <erdem-ati> erUSUL: so envyng is not a good idea for lucid.
[14:07] <frag4now> maxwellian: sadly i have to use it to create a dvd with menus...maybe i'll switch to gentoo later...thanks for now. Now ubuntu devels knows about this issue...i'm sure they will fix it as soon as possible ;)
[14:07] <maxwellian> frag4now: Did you file the bug report??
[14:07] <oodavid> does anyone have experience with scanners and OCR on ubuntu?
[14:08] <erUSUL> erdem-ati: nope; if you still want to use the run. it would be « chamod +x file.run && sudo ./file.run »
[14:08] <frag4now> maxwellian: i don't have an account...
[14:08] <maxwellian> frag4now: We don't just automatically file reports based on stuff that happens in this channel. :)
[14:08] <slinker1> erUSUL, try sudo apt-get install envyng-qt
[14:08] <maxwellian> frag4now: I hereby grant you permission to make an account.
[14:08] <frag4now> maxwellian: too lazy
[14:08] <frag4now> :)
[14:09] <duli> terry: This jailbroke thing looks nice. Is it trustable?
[14:09] <maxwellian> frag4now: Ah, okay, well...hopefully the developers aren't as lazy, and they actually see and try to fix the bug. :)
[14:09] <apapa> erUSUL: ok both have been completelty removed
[14:09] <terry> duli: What are you tring to do, use your ipone as gateway to internet? http://www.iphonemodem.com/
[14:09] <duli> terry: no, the other way around. I'm trying to use ubuntu as the gateway
[14:10] <apapa> erUSUL: and files edited...now what?
[14:10] <terry> duli: Not sure how to do that.  You don't have a wireless router?
[14:11] <duli> terry: I created a wireless connection in NM (ubuntu 10.04). Then I'm trying to connect my iPhone to it, as if it was any other router available (it has worked in the past between to laptops)
[14:11] <duli> terry: No, I don't have a rouyter....
[14:11] <kiasanth> for anyone who is wondering, I worked out the FTP problem, pureFTP now has multiple configs and to force chroot  toy need to make a text file called ChrootEveryone with yes in it then restart the daemon
[14:11] <terry> duli: But your ubuntu system has a wirless network adapter?
[14:11] <erUSUL> apapa: reboot
[14:11] <kiasanth> toy = you*
[14:12] <apapa> alrighty
[14:12] <duli> terry: yes, it does... but I'm using cable conneection right now
[14:12] <terry> duli: Does that wireless NIC have AP mode?
[14:12] <ashiswin> is it ok if i remove CUPS?
[14:12] <frag4now> maxwellian: this dvd is a stuff for my dad's friend that cut away my time from my work. So I don't want to spend other time to fullfill a form that doesn't solve the issue. I simply want to close this "wasting time work". thanks for your help
[14:12] <Dr_Willis> ashiswin: do you ever want to print?
[14:12] <maxwellian> frag4now: Sure, sorry we didn't get it fixed.
[14:13] <struhevol> Package nessus is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[14:13] <duli> terry: I think it does. You see, the iPhone detects the wirlress connection.. I insert the password and all, and it seems to connect
[14:13] <struhevol> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[14:13] <struhevol> is only available from another source
[14:13] <struhevol> However the following packages replace it:
[14:13] <struhevol>   openvas-client
[14:13] <FloodBot3> struhevol: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[14:13] <struhevol> E: Package nessus has no installation candidate

[14:13] <Dr_Willis> digitalfiz:  what are you trying tio compile?
[14:13] <BluesKaj> NM lets you set up an ad hoc connection as described in url that terry posted
[14:13] <struhevol> how can i paste something in this channel
[14:13] <frag4now> maxwellian: don't worry...happens. thanks for your support ;)

[14:14] <erUSUL> n2iko: volume-indicator
[14:14] <Dr_Willis> digitalfiz:  Hmm. well if it was in the repos. theres an apt-get feature to auto-install all needed dependencies/dev files..

[14:15] <maxwellian> frag4now: Welcome, good luck!
[14:15] <lee__> is there a way of connecting my 2nd slave HDD to virtual box??
[14:15] <erUSUL> n2iko: no; indicator-sound sorry
[14:15] <n2iko> thanks
[14:15] <abhi_nav_> !paste | struhevol
[14:15] <ashiswin> O My GoD!!!
[14:15] <ashiswin> It has removed everything!
[14:15] <erUSUL> n2iko: and as struhevol says you need the indicator applet to display it
[14:15] <ashiswin> removing cups has removed everything!
[14:15] <Dr_Willis> digitalfiz:  perhasp you need --> libdb-dev - Berkeley Database Libraries [development]
[14:15] <digitalfiz> Dr_Willis, yeah its called auto-apt it worked well forthe older vewer but this new one has been completely recoded and auto-apt doesnt seem to be getting any new stuff i may need
[14:16] <Dr_Willis> digitalfiz:  but the db version is 4.7 in 10.04 it seem,s
[14:16] <duli> terry: 02:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation Wireless WiFi Link 5100
[14:16] <ashiswin> i did sudo apt-get remove libcups2
[14:16] <n2iko> does it display automagicaly or do I need to install it also?
[14:16] <ashiswin> and now everythign is gone!
[14:16] <ashiswin> please
[14:16] <ashiswin> help me
[14:16] <FloodBot3> ashiswin: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[14:16] <digitalfiz> Dr_Willis, yeah maybe i can change the cmake files i dunno im new to compiling :P
[14:16] <Dr_Willis> digitalfiz:  i was refering to the 'apt-get build-dep PACKAGENAME' command.
[14:16] <ashiswin> okok. please help me. I have lost everything
[14:16] <n2iko> nm, got my answer
[14:16] <Dr_Willis> digitalfiz:  that build-dep makes it very easy to pull in stuff to compile new versions of stuff. :)
[14:17] <maxwellian> ashiswin: Take it easy...what does "everything" mean?
[14:17] <ashiswin> like
[14:17] <digitalfiz> Dr_Willis, yeah just useless with stuff not in repo :/
[14:17] <terry> duli: http://www.intel.com/network/connectivity/products/wireless/adapters/5000/index.htm
[14:17] <terry> That it ?  ^^^
[14:17] <ashiswin> it unsinstalled terminal firefox thunderbird all icons are gone. opening folders says that no application is handling that
[14:17] <apapa> erUSUL: hey man thanks alot wireless now shows up
[14:17] <erUSUL> apapa: no problem
[14:17] <Dr_Willis> digitalfiz:  I use it to 'shotgun' install dev stuff i may eventually need. :)
[14:17] <ashiswin> even the ubuntu software center is gone
[14:18] <ashiswin> PLEASE!
[14:18] <slow-motion> bye
[14:18] <erUSUL> ashiswin: sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop
[14:18] <ashiswin> i cant
[14:18] <Dr_Willis> ashiswin:  go to console. and do what erUSUL  said.
[14:18] <ashiswin> terminal is gone
[14:18] <erUSUL> ashiswin: or sudo aptitude reinstall ubuntu-desktop
[14:18] <Dr_Willis> ashiswin:  the CONSOLE. alt-ctrl-f1
[14:18] <duli> terry: yes, I think so
[14:19] <apapa> erUSUL: so what exactly is the recommended steps that I should take if i start again with a fresh install?
[14:19] <struhevol> ok this is my problem when i type aptitude install unetbootin
[14:19] <apapa> *are
[14:19] <struhevol> it works
[14:19] <WellDone> Bye
[14:19] <maxwellian> Dr_Willis: I think you were one of the people explaining the whole metapackage thing to me the other day...is it really the Right Thing to remove all of this stuff when a new user wants to get rid of cups?
[14:19] <sweetleaf> hi, do i need the same version of live cd with my install in order to reload the grub2?
[14:19] <terry> duli: http://download.intel.com/network/connectivity/products/wireless/319981.pdf
[14:19] <struhevol> fine but then when i try aptitude install nessus it dont work
[14:19] <erUSUL> apapa: do nothing but install b43-fwcutter package while connected to internet. reboot
[14:19] <struhevol> is something wrong with aptitude
[14:19] <abhi_nav_> ashiswin, its just my guess that why cant you revers it? sudo apt-get install libcups2
[14:19] <Dr_Willis> maxwellian:  then keep cups.. its not that big a thing
[14:20] <struhevol> any ideas what i might be doing wrong
[14:20] <rww> struhevol: nessus hasn't been in Ubuntu since jaunty. The weird message you're getting is because some other package hasn't been updated to reflect that.
[14:20] <maxwellian> Dr_Willis: I just don't understand the reasoning behind removing all of that software that seemingly has nothing to do with cups.
[14:20] <struhevol> o ok
[14:21] <maxwellian> Dr_Willis: I don't think that a user should be afraid to remove something they don't use for fear of completely breaking their system?
[14:21] <struhevol> ok so how do i find out what package is not updated
[14:21] <terry> duli: If the NIC will do AP mode then set it to AP mode and then set up your system for IPmasquerade and share the NET, but if the Wireless NIC you have does not support AP mode, it is not doable.
[14:21] <Dr_Willis> maxwellian:  its all about the dependencies and how things interlink. I rarely bother with removing stuff. so i havent looked into it much
[14:21] <digitalfiz> Dr_Willis, symlinking 4.8 to 4.2 worked :P
[14:21] <struhevol> rww can you help me out
[14:21] <Dr_Willis> digitalfiz:  thats a dirty trick. :)
[14:21] <duli> terry: hum, ok
[14:21] <digitalfiz> Dr_Willis, hehe but if it compiles im happy :P
[14:21] <erUSUL> maxwellian: the gnome printing support depends on cups libs if you remove it that libs will be removed too and the gtk/gnome apps that relied on them will be removed as well
[14:21] <maxwellian> Dr_Willis: I'm the same as you...I'm sure the powers that be have a great explanation. :)
[14:21] <Dr_Willis> digitalfiz:  ive had that not work befor.  but if it works
[14:21] <rww> struhevol: I'm not sure why you'd need to?
[14:22] <chazco> Can anyone confirm the release date for 10.04.1?
[14:22] <digitalfiz> yay it compiled that part now its failing at gmock, i hate hardcoded versioning
[14:22] <michel> hi, how do you recover from a "could this be a zero-length partition" error when fscking my main partition (with lots stuff on it :S )
[14:22] <struhevol> i just want to know how do i know which package needs to be updated
[14:22] <struhevol> thats all i am trying to figure out rww
[14:22] <terry> duli: If it does in fact have AP mode, switch AP mode on.  That is first step. And then to set your system up as gateway; Probably the easiest way is firestarter
[14:22] <terry> firestarter | duli
[14:23] <rww> chazco: July 29th, per https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LucidReleaseSchedule
[14:23] <duli> terry: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Internet/ConnectionSharing I think I mised something here

[14:23] <abhijain> abhi_nav: hello
[14:23] <fbxxkl> Does anyone know a good program for burning an AVI to a DVD?
[14:23] <duli> ubottu: ok, yks
[14:23] <terry> duli: What is it you think you missed?
[14:23] <abhi_nav> hiyaaa abhijain :)
[14:23] <chazco> rww - Thanks, didn't know that page had been updated :)
[14:23] <erUSUL> fbxxkl: devede ?
[14:23] <maxwellian> erUSUL: Hrm...so anything that provided a 'Print' option gets thrown out with cups?
[14:23] <duli> terry: the share my connection part.. let me see
[14:23] <fbxxkl> Thanks erUSUL
[14:24] <sweetleaf> hi, do i need the same version of live cd with my install in order to reload the grub2?
[14:24] <duli> "IPv4 Settings" tab and next to "Method:" select the drop down box and select the option that says "Shared to other computer
[14:24] <abhijain> abhi_nav: sorry that time internet sucks
[14:24] <n2iko> thanks all
[14:24] <Dr_Willis> fbxxkl:  you 'convert' an avi to the proper format. :) then burn the data files to dvd. is more technically right.
[14:24] <Dr_Willis> fbxxkl:  devede does a good job at that.
[14:24] <abhi_nav> abhijain, ohh yah. you read my memo?
[14:24] <abhijain> abhi_nav: so now we can proceed
[14:24] <abhi_nav> abhijain, sure.
[14:24] <erUSUL> maxwellian: probably ( not with cups with libcups or somesuch )
[14:24] <abhijain> abhi_nav: this time i am on bindows
[14:25] <Dr_Willis> fbxxkl:  just be sure to check the proper PAL/NTSC option for your tv.  :0 and play with devede a bit. its a little quirky.
[14:25] <abhi_nav> 'bindows'?
[14:25] <fbxxkl> right you make them into the audio and video TS right?
[14:25] <abhi_nav> bill gates = bindows?
[14:25] <luist_> how can i know if a package is installed from command line? how can i list the files that the package installed?
[14:25] <abhijain> abhi_nav: yeah windows yar
[14:25] <Dr_Willis> fbxxkl:  yep. Devede can convert and gernate an dvd ISO file you then burn however you want.
[14:25] <ikonia> you'll find it's called "windows" please use the correct name for it
[14:25] <erUSUL> luist_: dpkg -L packagename
[14:25] <maxwellian> erUSUL: Hmmm, okay, thanks for the info.
[14:25] <abhijain> abhi_nav: yeah . actually iu hate bindows
[14:25] <Dr_Willis> fbxxkl:  i always test out the dvd.iso in vlc or mplayer befor burning.
[14:25] <erUSUL> luist_: apt-cache policy packagename
[14:25] <terry> duli: sudo iwconfig eth0 mode master
[14:25] <erUSUL> maxwellian: no problem
[14:26] <fbxxkl> ok
[14:26] <terry> duli: See what that does ^^^
[14:26] <abhijain> abhi_nav: so step first  live cd  and ubuntu live
[14:26] <abhi_nav> abhijain, :D ok. look so now we follow that guide only. I never need to restore grub. I am just interpreting that guide for you. so 'anything' happends will be fully your responsibily. ok?
[14:26] <abhi_nav> abhijain, ^^
[14:26] <fbxxkl> where do you get Devede from
[14:26] <fbxxkl> !devede
[14:26] <fbxxkl> is there an apt-get?
[14:26] <maxwellian> !info devede
[14:26] <terry> duli: sudo iwconfig eth0 mode master #Where eth0 is your wireless NIC.
[14:26] <abhijain> abhi_nav: its ok . i am ready
[14:26] <tomatto_> why is not 3d drivers for intel 945GME for ubuntu?
[14:27] <maxwellian> fbxxkl: Yes.
[14:27] <maxwellian> fbxxkl: You might need to enable the multiverse repos first though.
[14:27] <abhijain> abhi_nav: ping
[14:27] <erUSUL> tomatto_: intel driver shopuld support 3d on the card
[14:27] <abhi_nav> abhijain, from live cd mount your hdd ubuntu partition from Places. then do mount | tail -1  and crosscheck your output with one given on that guide.
[14:27] <fbxxkl> I see it in the ubuntu software center thats an acceptable place to install from right>
[14:28] <anipy> end-user question regarding ubuntu/gnome:  any trick how i can directly resize a window that is currently maximized, with-out un-maximizing it first?
[14:28] <erUSUL> fbxxkl: indeed
[14:28] <abhi_nav> abhijain, Note the designation for the disk /dev/sda which you will be using later, and the directory in /media.
[14:28] <tomatto_> erUSUL: is proprietary drivers for? like for nvidia from nvidia.com ?
[14:28] <Niglop> how do i restart x display?
[14:28] <abhijain> abhi_nav: can u tell me command for mount
[14:28] <fbxxkl> cool.  I am pretty new to ubuntu/linux so I am trying to learn :D
[14:28] <maxwellian> fbxxkl: That's a great place.
[14:28] <abhi_nav> abhijain, no you first mount it graphically. by going 'Places' menu
[14:28] <maxwellian> fbxxkl: Sounds like you're picking it up okay. :)
[14:29] <abhijain> abhi_nav: ok i check that
[14:29] <fbxxkl> its because of a great community :D
[14:29] <Niglop> how do i restart x display?
[14:29] <Niglop> !x
[14:29] <erUSUL> tomatto_: no they are free and come with the system
[14:29] <hareldvd> On update I got an error report: "E: linux-image-2.6.32-23-generic: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 2
[14:29] <abhi_nav> abhijain, mount means just open your ubuntu partition from 'Places' menu.
[14:29] <struhevol> rww i need to update the package in order to install nessus cuz when i do aptitude install nessus i get an error message so how do i update my packages
[14:29] <erUSUL> !sysrq | Niglop

[14:30] <terry> duli See the link: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/ShareEthernetConnectionThroughWireless
[14:30] <erUSUL> Niglop: use Alt+PrintScreen + k
[14:30] <abhijain> abhi_nav: ok . next
[14:30] <tomatto_> erUSUL: only free? no proprietary original drivers from Intel?
[14:30] <iceroot> z0net: gparted
[14:30] <abhi_nav> z0net, using gparted? format? you need to insatll extra package which name now I dont remember to partition ntfs
[14:30] <erUSUL> tomatto_: intel develops the driver and it is free ( kudos to them )
[14:30] <z0net> iceroot, gparted can't find it =\
[14:30] <iceroot> z0net: hm
[14:30] <abhi_nav> abhijain, now do mount | tail -1  in terminal and crosscheck your output with the one provided in that guide.
[14:31] <langley> Is there a way to reset my Xorg config in Ubuntu 10.04?
[14:31] <iceroot> z0net: sudo fdisk -l  is finding it?
[14:31] <ashiswin> wow u guys are awesome
[14:31] <ashiswin> you fixed my problem:)

[14:31] <ashiswin> i gotta pay you erUSUL
[14:31] <erUSUL> ashiswin: no problem :)
[14:31] <abhijain> abhi_nav: ok . next
[14:31] <tomatto_> erUSUL: how?
[14:32] <struhevol> iceroot how do i fix this when i do aptitude install nessus i get this  No candidate version found for nessus
[14:32] <abhi_nav> abhijain, output matched?
[14:32] <etrisnanto> pala did you find the solution?
[14:32] <erUSUL> tomatto_: it should work out of the box
[14:32] <maxwellian> hareldvd: Did it tell you what the dependency problem was?  use paste.ubuntu.com
[14:32] <z0net> iceroot, this command just recognize my 2 HDs
[14:32] <abhi_nav> abhijain, paste your mount | tail -1 here for me
[14:32] <SteffJay> Hello Peeps ;-)
[14:33] <erUSUL> tomatto_: paste the output of « grep EE /var/log/Xorg.0.log » in a pastebin
[14:33] <tomatto_> erUSUL: is some howto or something
[14:33] <ashiswin> wow erUSUL anything u want, i'll help u with. I cant do much though
[14:33] <abhijain> abhi_nav: i told you i am on windows
[14:33] <pala> etrisnanto, not really
[14:33] <struhevol> z0net sudo aptitude install Gparted
[14:33] <struhevol> there you go
[14:33] <maxwellian> ashiswin: Glad it worked!  By the way, what did install?  ubuntu-desktop or libcups?
[14:33] <ashiswin> ubuntu-desktop
[14:33] <etrisnanto> i have the same problem before, the solution is just to set some parameter on openoffice base..
[14:33] <iceroot> z0net: dmesg is showing the drive when pluged in?
[14:33] <abhi_nav> abhijain, :(. shutdown that winthingy and boot into ubuntu live cd. to restore grub you need to be in live cd.
[14:33] <z0net> struhevol, gparted can't find the pendrive which I need to format bac to vfat
[14:33] <erUSUL> ashiswin: as i said. no problem. thanks is enough. at least untill we can send beers via email  XXDD
[14:33] <maxwellian> ashiswin: Did it reinstall cups as well?
[14:33] <SteffJay> Does anybody know how to install red5 on 10.04 ?
[14:34]  * maxwellian can't wait for his first e-beer.
[14:34] <abhijain> abhi_nav: ok
[14:34] <z0net> iceroot, I'll see
[14:34] <struhevol> z0net sudo aptitude install gparted
[14:34] <iceroot> SteffJay: what is red5? you have a deb from it?
[14:34] <abhijain> abhi_nav: ok now wait
[14:34]  * maxwellian thinks, and then corrects: "e-ale"
[14:34] <struhevol> works just tried it out
[14:34] <rambo3> how do I convert files to .db ?
[14:35] <SteffJay> Red5 is (i think) a better form of Flash server, very much like Adobe Flash Server
[14:35] <iceroot> rambo3: and what is .db? also think about that a file-extension in linux has nothing to say
[14:35] <maxwellian> !info nessus
[14:35] <z0net> struhevol, gparted can't find the pendrive which I need to format bac to vfat
[14:35] <iceroot> SteffJay: a flash server? luckily i was never using something like that, so sorry i cant help

[14:36] <iceroot> z0net: what is the error?
[14:36] <Dr_Willis> z0net:  that sounds like the pendrive may be going bad.
[14:36] <jechonias> no
[14:37] <iceroot> z0net: ah ok didnt read the failed
[14:37] <z0net> Dr_Willis, apparently the pendrive is in ntfs, and Windows can't recognize anymore.. so I'm trying to fix it
[14:37] <terry> duli: Looks like you can do it via ad-hoc mode.  I did not know that.  wireless-mode ad-hoc
[14:37] <iceroot> z0net: maybe its broken
[14:37] <terry> duli: See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/ShareEthernetConnectionThroughWireless
[14:37] <duli> yes... I already did it bt two laptops
[14:38] <terry> duli: But that document is a bout out dated...
[14:38] <beegel> z0net, you got the failed message before attached?
[14:38] <jopie> Just installed 10.04 server with lamp, but mysql returns an error 13 (permision denied) when I create a table. Any ideas?

[14:38] <z0net> beegel, after
[14:39] <terry> duli: But it may be that you would need to set the Wireless NIC to AP mode to share with the iphone. Did you try:  sudo iwconfig mode master  ?
[14:39] <vlt> jopie: Create a table? Where?
[14:39] <jopie> vlt: in a database
[14:39] <duli> iwconfig: unknown command "master"

[14:39] <jopie> I've loaded data from an old installation by copying the data directories. I was able to delete tables, add rows, but it can't seem to create a temp file to create a table
[14:40] <z0net> iceroot, I tried "sudo mkdir -p /mnt/pendrive && sudo mount /dev/sdc1 /mnt/pendrive", but I have to specify the file system..
[14:40] <z0net> iceroot, where I put the "ntfs" in the command?
[14:40] <GNU\colossus> is there a PPA featuring Mozilla Thunderbird 3.1, or an unbranded build of that version?

[14:42] <matteo1990> Hi all, i am having problems with audio on my laptop in ubuntu 10.04. I can ear music only with my eadphones.. Any tips?
[14:42] <terry> p1l0t: You have to turn off NM
[14:42] <duli> Error for wireless request "Set Mode" (8B06) :
[14:42] <duli>     SET failed on device wlan0 ; Invalid argument.
[14:42] <z0net> iceroot, I tried "sudo mkdir -p /mnt/pendrive && sudo mount /dev/sdc1 /mnt/pendrive", but I have to specify the file system..
[14:42] <aynur> s.a
[14:42] <p1l0t> terry: I didn't know I had that
[14:42] <etrisnanto> pala, just make sure you are using the right version...
[14:42] <terry> duli: So that tells us that AP [master] mode is not available.
[14:43] <rupert> giood-day,os-probe in grub2 keeps messing up vista entry by labelling 1st partion recovery as vista loader, & 2nd partition as recovery. Inversed.
[14:43] <digitalfiz> Dr_Willis, you wouldnt happen to know how to install gmock would you?
[14:43] <terry> duli: You did  "iwconfig wlan0 mode master" ?
[14:44] <duli> terry: yes
[14:44] <Mateo_> Hi everyone !!
[14:44] <terraplane> hi
[14:44] <terry> duli: Ok, then.  That pretty much confirms that your NIC does not have AP mode.
[14:45] <krashh> hi everybody .. i m using openoffice calc , i m tryng to put 09 , but automatically 0 disapear ..
[14:45] <krashh> sorry for my english
[14:45] <p1l0t> terry: how do I turn off NM? I didn't know server even had that.
[14:45] <maxwellian> hareldvd: Try 'sudo aptitude upgrade grub'
[14:45] <Mateo_> i have a problem with my vhosts ... i have added a conf file in site-available, i've made a a2ensite myconf  , but the domain direct me to another directory (fromanother site conf)
[14:45] <etrisnanto> krashh, if you want 0 still appear, just put  "'" before number...
[14:46] <duli> terry: hum... that's strange... If that's true, my iPhone shouldn't be able to see the wireless connection and even connect to it...
[14:46] <tomatto_> erUSUL:
[14:46] <tomatto_> erUSUL: (EE) No devices detected. <-- only this line
[14:46] <etrisnanto> pala, how is it now?
[14:46] <erUSUL> tomatto_: o.0!
[14:46] <Mateo_> oh maybe i should ask on ubuntu-server instead ...
[14:46] <tomatto_> erUSUL: before that is (WW) PSB: No matching Device section for instance (BusID PCI:0@0:2:1) found

[14:47] <its-me-again> hi all i am wanting to find some info on how to install grub1 to a sd card. 1. how big does the card need to be and 2.how can i do it.
[14:47] <s7> How do I get HP Scanjet3110 working with ubuntu 10.04? Thanks
[14:47] <krashh> etrisnanto : Thanks ..
[14:47] <terry> duli:  That's not true.  If it  is in ad-hoc mode, you will be able to connect to it.
[14:47] <etrisnanto> solve the problem?
[14:47] <hareldvd> maxwell_, Thanks. I also got a reboot notice which I had to postpone until I figure the error. Do I have to reboot before the aptitude command?
[14:47] <noelito> I just installed Ubuntu 10.04 and I am having trouble mounting a DVD. CDs mount fine but not DVDs. I have found forums with people having the same problem but no soltions.
[14:48] <terry> duli But you need instructions on Share Ethernet Connection Through Wireless for Ubuntu, (I have to go to work now.  Sorry, but I have to leave)
[14:48] <maxwellian> hareldvd: Why are you holding off on the reboot?
[14:49] <terry> duli Wish I could help you further, but... gotta go.
[14:49] <erUSUL> tomatto_: do you have a /etc/X11/xorg.conf file ?
[14:49] <tomatto_> erUSUL: yes
[14:49] <rupert> hi, how to stop os-probe in grub2. it detects wrongly the vista partitions. I have to manually edit menu.
[14:49] <maxwellian> hareldvd: And please tab until you get to my nick, it makes it easier to see your responses.
[14:49] <noelito> I get an error stating mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sr0
[14:49] <erUSUL> tomatto_: tried booting without one ?

[14:50] <p1l0t> In ubuntu server 10.04... how do you change network settings permanently?
[14:50] <abhi_nav> !server | p1l0t
[14:51] <s3r3n1t7> p1l0t, in /etc/network/interfaces if i remember .... be careful not to lock yourself out tho
[14:51] <hareldvd> maxwell_, in order not to loose the error details.
[14:51] <p1l0t> abhi_nav: thanks I have been using it for a few years now. You used to just change /etc/network/interfaces but 10.04 this does nothing aparently
[14:51] <abhi_nav> p1l0t, ok
[14:52] <p1l0t> s3r3n1t7: what do you mean lock yourself out?
[14:52] <tomatto_> erUSUL: how do you mean that?
[14:52] <s3r3n1t7> p1l0t, if you change your network settings to something that's different from your actual network, you will no longer be able to connect to your server. The only way to fix it would be to have physical access to the server.
[14:52] <maxwellian> hareldvd: Please post the error message to paste.ubuntu.com
[14:53] <maxwellian> hareldvd: That way I can have it open in my browser, and we can both have the link.
[14:53] <matteo1990> Hi all, i am having problems with audio on my laptop in ubuntu 10.04. I can ear music only with my eadphones.. Any tips?
[14:53] <p1l0t> s3r3n1t7: I am already at that state and I can't get back because editing interfaces does not effect my ifconfig settings..
[14:53] <tomatto_> erUSUL: /usr/bin/X :0 -br -once -config /etc/X11/xorg.conf.failsafe -logfile /var/log/Xorg.failsafe.log <- it running in failsafe mode and i don't know why.?
[14:53] <s3r3n1t7> p1l0t, you'll have to reload networking after ... did you also do that?
[14:53] <BluesKaj> p1l0t, I just removed NM and let etc/network/interfaces do the work, sometimes sudo dhclient will restart you connection if  sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart doesn't stick.
[14:54] <maxwellian> hareldvd: And again, you are addressing your messages to "maxwell_", which is someone else.  My nick is "maxwellian".  You may need to press tab more than once if you're using tab completion.
[14:54] <spaz926> How can I go about dual booting the new Ubuntu release with Mac OS X Snow Leopard on an Intel Mac?
[14:54] <p1l0t> s3r3n1t7: how do you remove NM? I wasn't aware server even came with that
[14:54] <p1l0t> BluesKaj: how do you remove NM? I wasn't aware server even came with that
[14:54] <s3r3n1t7> p1l0t, i suppose apt would be able to do it.
[14:55] <BluesKaj> p1l0t, sudo aptitude remove network-manager
[14:55] <p1l0t> it says doesn't exist
[14:56] <steffan> p1l0t: server does not come with network-manager, that's why
[14:56] <BluesKaj> oh ?

[14:56] <ronoc> HELP!! Sporadic black screens
[14:56] <ronoc> (Dell Optiplex gx260 desktop PC, Pentium 4 - not a weird setup!)
[14:56] <ronoc> anyone any good with linux? - this is my 3rd time posting about this issue today with no joy
[14:56] <p1l0t> That's what I thought but then why doesn't it read from /etc/network/interfaces

[14:56] <hareldvd> maxwellian, Sorry...
[14:56] <tomatto_> erUSUL: how can i run xorg without failsafe mode?
[14:56] <Fanshawe> Hey all. I use Ubuntu on a netbook and some windows don't have scroll bars and aren't adjustable to fit the small screen (like the disk utility, for example). Is there a way to force them to fit?
[14:57] <steffan> BluesKaj, p1l0t: my build hasn't anyhow, did you install any package that required it?
[14:57] <maxwellian> hareldvd: It's okay...I just like seeing my nick light up on the screen. :)  Did you post your error to paste.ubuntu.com?
[14:58] <erUSUL> tomatto_: i would do « sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.bak » reboot. but now i have to go away. sorry.
[14:58] <hareldvd> maxwellian, http://paste.ubuntu.com/459475/
[14:58] <p1l0t> steffan: I don't think so. aptitude remove says network-manager is not installed
[14:58] <BluesKaj> steffan, just a sec , let me check , maybe network interfaces is connecting my server thru ethernet
[14:58] <tomatto_> erUSUL: how is name of 3d intel driver for use?
[14:58] <_CommandeR_> So still having issues and no workarround for Wuibi searching and using sysnative/bcdedit error even when i do not have this folder.
[14:58] <maxwellian> !patience | ronoc
[15:00] <p1l0t> sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart says failed to bring up eth0... although eth0 is up when I type ifconfig
[15:00] <steffan> x/1
[15:00] <steffan> p1l0t: how can you bring up and interface that is already up?
[15:00] <hareldvd> maxwellian, I think I know the reason. I switched to lilo after I got fed up with the ambiguous directions with grub on which I felt I wasn't able to take full control. I think I can disregard the problem only that the upgrade procedure should also support lilo based boot loader instead of grub.
[15:01] <abhijain> abhi_nav:hello
[15:01] <abhi_nav> abhijain, hello
[15:01] <tomatto_> erUSUL: how go to work 3d acceleration?
[15:01] <abhijain> abhi_nav: now on ubuntu live
[15:01] <maxwellian> hareldvd: Yes, that is pertinent information to your problem. :)
[15:01] <maxwellian> hareldvd: But you can't disregard the problem, unfortunately.
[15:02] <_CommandeR_> So still having issues and no workarround for Wuibi searching and using sysnative/bcdedit error even when i do not have this folder.
[15:02] <BluesKaj> p1l0t, steffan , sorry I have no NM installed on my server , my mistake. It's connecting ethernet dhcp with network interfaces
[15:02] <NitzchONot> !drivers
[15:02] <p1l0t> steffan: even putting it down and then doing the restart has the same effect. Maybe I got my mac addy wrong or something
[15:02] <tomatto_> !drivers
[15:02] <tomatto_> !intel
[15:02] <abhijain> abhi_nav: mounted drive
[15:02] <maxwellian> hareldvd: When you "switched to lilo" what did you actually do?

I don't understand why this is happening this is a bran new un-toughed install of 10.04.
[15:10] <abhi_nav> abhijain, but why are you checking it?
[15:10] <BluesKaj> p1l0t, check this out

[15:29] <bazhang> james296, check the mailing lists. no one here will likely know. that was a developers decision
[15:29] <bazhang> !lists | james296
[15:29] <jechonias> ok
[15:30] <abhi_nav> abhijain, sudo grub-install --root-directory=/media/0682be9c-e3d6-4d09-8d28-236cb35cf0dc /dev/sda
[15:30] <erry> If i'mrunning a gui app from a terminal is it possible to like put it in the background instead of a blinking cursor all the time?
[15:30] <abhi_nav> abhijain, just last guess try that. otherwise we need soneone help
[15:30] <james296> the only reason I dont want to enable the icons is because when I run Rhythmbox only ONE icon shows up in its menu when you click the rhythmbox icon next to the clock
[15:30] <erry> like see its gui but not see output in terminal
[15:30] <james296> and thats the Exit button
[15:30] <bazhang> james296, lets move on please
[15:30] <Ironman_20_russ> All greetings!
[15:30] <james296> move on? to what?
[15:31] <squircle> erry: you can add a single ampersand after the command. for instance, instead of "/usr/bin/command", run "/usr/command/bin &"
[15:31] <erry> ok
[15:31] <DoctorPepper> hi guys!!
[15:31] <erry> Thanks :)
[15:31] <bazhang> james296, the meta-discussion about the 'reasoning'; that is not what this channel is for.

[15:32] <NeoCicak> has anyone ever installed XFi Xtreme driver on ubuntu 64?
[15:32] <james296> its for questions on Ubuntu, yes? this is part of the Ubuntu distro, yes? I dont see the issue here, sorry
[15:32] <abhi_nav> abhijain, you see you ddnt type the full word 'sudo' you typed 'udo'. correct that :p
[15:32] <bazhang> james296, support questions, not chat about developers decisions
[15:32] <BluesKaj> erry, using the word like isn't proper english and it can confuse those whose first language isn't english , pls try to avoid the like this like that vernacular

[15:33] <matteo1990> Hi all, i am having problems with audio on my laptop in ubuntu 10.04. I can ear music only with my eadphones.. Any tips?
[15:33] <james296> I thought it would be anything regarding questions about Ubuntu...
[15:33] <squircle> !audio | matteo1990
[15:33] <BluesKaj> gone , oh well, I've always wanted to say that anyway
[15:33] <IdleOne> james296: now you know :)
[15:33] <bazhang> james296, that would be the mailing lists and #ubuntu-offtopic
[15:34] <james296> but isnt ubuntu-offtopic reegarding chats not related to ubuntu? hence, offtopic?
[15:34] <matteo1990> squircle, I have tried all this things, the strange thing is that i can ear good with my phones
[15:34] <squircle> matteo1990: when your headphones are unplugged, can you hear out of the speakers?
[15:35] <DoctorPepper> can anyone  help me  please ,  i planning on moving from sabayon to ubuntu , but  i dont know who to handle  the transition to ubuntu because of the fact that my home partition is encrypted
[15:35] <tomatto_> erUSUL: when i move xorg.conf and restart pc. it still run in failsafe mode graphics
[15:35] <macintux> james296: Yes, its for conversation other than support.
[15:35] <matteo1990> squircle, no, that's the problem
[15:35] <abhijain> abhi_nav: Installation finished. No error reported.
[15:35] <squircle> matteo1990: does it work if you reboot the computer with the headphones unplugged?
[15:35] <abhi_nav> abhijain, just paste the output
[15:35] <abhi_nav> abhijain, using pastebin
[15:36] <IdleOne> james296: I am going to ask you to stop this out of scope chat. Please join #ubuntu-offtopic to discuss anything else but Ubuntu support.

[15:37] <matteo1990> squircle, i alway boot the pc without headphones. All worked fine 2 days ago, something changed... The only thing i did was changing the input device from alsamixer to use skype...
[15:37] <abhi_nav> abhijain, :(
[15:37] <abhijain> abhi_nav: ??
[15:37] <abhi_nav> abhijain, ok now remove livecd reboot and you should be able to boot into real ubuntu.
[15:38] <abhijain> abhi_nav: rebooting ??
[15:38] <abhijain> abi_nav: should need to reboot
[15:38] <abhi_nav> abhijain, yes. restart your computer. remove your ubuntu cd and then you should be able to boot into ubuntu.
[15:38] <abhijain> abhi_nav: thanx alot
[15:38] <abhi_nav> abhijain, dont boot intto cd.
[15:39] <abhi_nav> :(
[15:41] <amabo> is it possible to download a package and install it offline? for example - i'm on a mac and don't have a wired connection to download the wireless update (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro5-3/Lucid#Wireless)
[15:42] <blind> I have maybe a silly question.. the on-board wireless in my netbook isn't so good.. if I plug in a usb wifi adapter, can I use them both to connect and get a better signal, or can I only use one or the other at a time?
[15:43] <DoctorPepper> can anyone  help me  please ,  i planning on moving from sabayon to ubuntu , but  i dont know who to handle  the transition to ubuntu because of the fact that my home partition is encrypted
[15:43] <squircle> blind: unless you're willing to do a lot (and i mean lots) of tweaking and stuff, no, you can't use them both to get a better signal.
[15:43] <blind> yeah, i figured. would be cool, though..
[15:43] <abhi_nav> what is sabayon?
[15:43] <squircle> abhi_nav: a linux distribution
[15:43] <NightKhaos> DoctorPepper: given the complexity of your particular problem, what about Sabayon is not meeting your needs.
[15:43] <etrisnanto> blind, you will need only use one connection..., not both of them.
[15:43] <abhi_nav> squircle, I see. let me chcecck on net
[15:44] <NightKhaos> abhi_nav: a of shot of Gentoo with more of the "normal stuff", read GUI, installed by default.
[15:44] <abhi_nav> NightKhaos, ok
[15:45] <Guest42030> HI
[15:45] <matteo1990> Hi all, i am having problems with audio on my laptop in ubuntu 10.04. I can ear music only with my eadphones.. Any tips?
[15:45] <DoctorPepper> NightKhaos:  the update system is annoying , and  some packages  are not available for sabayon  and are  on ubuntu
[15:45] <Guest42030> CHIK YOUR EAR
[15:46] <squircle> !caps | Guest42030
[15:46] <etrisnanto> matteo1990, did you check your laptop speaker? is it ok?
[15:46] <michalxo> erUSUL ... now my wifi works... because liveCD 10.10 Alpha 1 managed to turn on it via LiveCD
[15:46] <michalxo> how is it possible that I was not able to do so??
[15:46] <bazhang> Guest42030, that is not helpful advice. please desist
[15:46] <Guest42030> I AM SORRY
[15:46] <zors> wanna install buntu on my bros laptop.  which fs should i go for -  ext3, ext4, xfs, jfs etc??  considering it's a laptop i'm leaning toward jfs for lower cpu usage... or am i missing something.  Any help would be appreciated.
[15:46] <michalxo> Guest42030 turn off your caps lock
[15:46] <bazhang> Guest42030, please disable the caps
[15:46] <Guest42030> ok
[15:47] <NightKhaos> DoctorPepper: if by annoying you mean "it takes ages to install anything" and "it sometimes breaks", yeah, that's true. However, the easist way to reinstall Ubuntu when your home partition is encrypted like that, because they do not have compatiable package systems, etc, etc, will be to back up all your data and start from stratch. Do you have enough storage to achieve this?
[15:47] <squircle> zors: I'd just use ext4; the CPU usage isn't that high (not much higher than jfs in my experience)

[15:48] <j800r> hey guys, i'm having trouble getting 5.1 to work properly on lucid :\ all the results i've found online are outdated
[15:48] <rashd7_> how to run a custom application say, hello world using gtk run on executing startx
[15:48] <zors> @squircle:  thanks.  I'll give it a try
[15:48] <michalxo> erUSUL are there any of experienced guys here around now?
[15:48] <DoctorPepper> NightKhaos:  no
[15:48] <bazhang> rashd7_, install it. kubuntu-desktop, lubuntu-desktop, xubuntu-desktop
[15:49] <amabo> is it possible to download a package and install it offline? for example - i'm on a mac and don't have a wired connection to download the wireless update (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro5-3/Lucid#Wireless)
[15:50] <NightKhaos> DoctorPepper: right then, unfortunately your options are: stick with Sab, overwrite Sab with Ubuntu which will have a VERY, VERY high chance of breaking your system and having unrecoverable loss of your data, or go out and buy a 1 TB hard drive at your earlist convience, and back everything up.
[15:50] <iceroot> amabo: sure, install them with sudo dpkg -i packagename
[15:50] <IdleOne> amabo: packages.ubuntu.com. download to USB then use dpkg -i *.deb to install the package on the offline machine
[15:50] <matteo1990> etrisnanto, they are ok and they worked fine 2 days ago... It's strange there must be some settings that turned off
[15:50] <blind> amabo, yes.. if you download a deb file.. however you may run into dependency issues.
[15:51] <IdleOne> amabo: like blind pointed out you will need to download the depends als. packages.ubuntu.com lists them all for you.
[15:51] <rashd7_> bazhang: i need to create a new desktop environment
[15:51] <bazhang> rashd7_, how is that related to Ubuntu support
[15:52] <abhijain> abhi_nav: hey really thanx alot
[15:52] <NightKhaos> DoctorPepper: as it stands, I strongly suggest you do the last choice regardless of your actions. Having vital data not backed up anywhere is a very dangerous thing to do. The only data I don't have backed up I can easily recover again (i.e. my iTunes library, and other media files)... everything else, uni work, etc, is backed up.
[15:52] <abhi_nav> abhijain, can you logint to real ubuntu now?
[15:52] <abhijain> abhi_nav: yeah
[15:52] <abhi_nav> abhijain, good. :)
[15:52] <DoctorPepper> NightKhaos:  thanks for the help
[15:52] <blind> oh, I have a weird issue.. my on-board wireless shows up as eth3 rather than wlanX and as a result, I don't have a signal percentage..?
[15:53] <NightKhaos> DoctorPepper: sorry I couldn't be more helpful. I know how frustrating whating to change operating systems can be.
[15:53] <NightKhaos> DoctorPepper: wanting*
[15:54] <j800r> i take it no one's been able to get surround working properly under lucid then? :|
[15:54] <matteo1990> etrisnanto, we can talk here too

[15:59] <slow-motion> hi Oer
[16:00] <MLaw> hi
[16:00] <acovrig> What is the best mail server for ubuntu (webmail, like send an email from gmail to user@<ubuntu's ipaddress> and check that email via web)?
[16:01] <un214> I just discovered /tmp isn't a ramdrive/swapdrive anymore
[16:01] <un214> is this intentional?
[16:01] <etrisnanto> check on the audio preferences...? everything ok?
[16:01] <matteo1990> etrisnanto, They work fine believe me :D
[16:01] <frxstrem1> how do you unpack the contents of a .rar file?
[16:02] <llutz> frxstrem1: unrar x file.rar
[16:02] <lee__> sudo apt-get install unrar
[16:02] <j800r> no one can help then? :\ ah well. guess i'm gonna be sticking with Win 7 in that case :|
[16:02] <rek> hi all.... hi llutz how can i set the pkg config environment variable to allow makefile to find libln?
[16:02] <etrisnanto> matteo1990, so it is audio preferences problem, maybe loudspeaker is muted...
[16:03] <frxstrem1> llutz: thanks :)
[16:04] <acovrig> What is the best mail server for ubuntu (webmail, like send an email from gmail to user@<ubuntu's ipaddress> and check that email via web)?
[16:06] <bluds> hi
[16:06] <iceroot> acovrig: are you sure you mean a mail-server?
[16:06] <Dargon> how can i have a user ftp things into a folder inside someone elses hom directory and make it not give me permissions errors?
[16:07] <iceroot> acovrig: if you want a mailserver with webinterface, try postfix + horde or squirrelmail
[16:07] <Dargon> likw the site is in /home/amz/public_html
[16:07] <acovrig> iceroot: if I setup *.webhop.org to forward to my router, setup port forwarding to my ubuntu box, can I have username@*.webhop.org
[16:08] <Dargon> and my user only needs access to ~/amz/public_html/images
[16:08] <bluds> if i declare a variable in a Makefile called TEST = OPT1 OPT2 and then i would like to know if OPT1 is inside TEST, how can i do this?
[16:08] <acovrig> iceroot: yes, squirrelmail is what I've seen with other hostings, how hard is it to setup?
[16:08] <mvhenten> arg.
[16:09] <iceroot> acovrig: dont use mailserver with a dynamic ip
[16:09] <acovrig> iceroot: why?
[16:09] <iceroot> acovrig: or with a ip from a isp for private connections
[16:09] <acovrig> iceroot: dyndns.org>comcast
[16:09] <iceroot> acovrig: most mailservers are filtering mails coming from a specific ip range
[16:10] <iceroot> acovrig: mailservers are using the ip
[16:10] <j800r> so does no one have ANY tips on how to get 5.1 working. i've tried every fix i can find, so much so that now my sound doesn't even work at all :|
[16:10] <matteo1990> etrisnanto, under output i have selected internal audio analog stereo, is this ok?
[16:10] <slidinghorn> j800r, 5.1?  what application are you talking about?
[16:10] <Oer> j800r, what soundcard do you use ?
[16:11] <acovrig> iceroot: I want to provide a href=mailto:username@*.webhop.org in a webpage hosted on the ubuntu, then be able to use a web interface w/login to view messages sent to that address
[16:11] <j800r> Oer, erm i believe it's a soundblaster integrated hd audio. or something like that
[16:11] <j800r> came with the motherboard (striker ii extreme)
[16:12] <j800r> soundmax, sorry
[16:12] <Compiling> acovrig: you run the server that has the e-mails on it?
[16:12] <acovrig> Compiling: personal computer, I can physically touch, yes
[16:13] <etrisnanto> matteo1990, just try it...maybe help
[16:13] <Compiling> acovrig: If you want a web interface, you can install squirrelmail
[16:13] <Compiling> acovrig: you'll need PHP as well
[16:13] <etrisnanto> is it unselected before?
[16:13] <j800r> SoundMAX AD1988B there, that's from the asus driver website. that's the actual model i have then :\
[16:13] <acovrig> Compiling: I have php with abysswsx1, is there an apt-get, or do I need to compile; make; make install from a tar.gz frm squirrelmail.org?
[16:14] <BluesKaj> j800r, just to be sure do , lspci | grep audio , in the terminal.
[16:16] <Compiling> acovrig: you may need to compile it, but check the software center first
[16:17] <acovrig> Compiling: apt-get wants to install apache2 also, should I let it, then use apache isntead of Abyss?
[16:17] <Compiling> acovrig: yes, squirrelmail requires apache I believe
[16:18] <acovrig> Compiling: ok, thanks

[16:46] <Natanaiel> tucemiux: how?
[16:46] <abhi_nav> Natanaiel, http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk
[16:46] <tucemiux> Natanaiel, if it helps any -- the same thing happened to me, I had to use the forums and the thread on partition recovery helped me recover the partition
[16:47] <DaveG|> hi, i've followed the community guide for gitosis at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Git and i'm having problems creating my on repos
[16:48] <DaveG|> every time i try to push changes for a new repo, it tells me "Repository read access denied"
[16:48] <Natanaiel> tucemiux: what did u do exactly?
[16:48] <funkyHat> llutz: actually what he needed to know was the name of the package in ubuntu, so there's a chance they'll just send him back here...
[16:48] <Natanaiel> abhi_nav: but test disk is for deleted partition not, reformatted
[16:48] <llutz> funkyHat: libapache2-mod-php5
[16:48] <funkyHat> (acovrig, that is)
[16:48] <funkyHat> llutz: yes I know
[16:49] <abhi_nav> Natanaiel, hmmm may be
[16:49] <tucemiux> Natanaiel, I used a text only utility, first I took the the hard drive off line -- i didnt write to the hard drive that had the partition that I wanted to recover
[16:49] <tonsofpcs> hi, what is the recommended method for upgrading from hardly (8.04 LTS) to lucid (10.04 LTS) ?
[16:50] <Natanaiel> tucemiux: what's the name of that utility?!
[16:50] <tonsofpcs> (note: I currently have no X installed)
[16:51] <indrora> Hi y'all, I'm trying to do something odd. I want a machine with just E17, xchat, a few utils and Abrowse... So I thought I'd start with the Server install, install E17, X, xterm and ABrowse.
[16:51] <tucemiux> Natanaiel, next I fired up the text only utility and searched for partitions that were deleted, I believe the utility was ddrescue, there's a few others and I believe I tried them all, I cant remember which one did it, I do remember is that it works
[16:51] <indrora> tonsofpcs: update to 9.10 THEN to 10.04
[16:51] <indrora> My problem is my box keeps resetting the gfx card now when it comes up.
[16:51] <tuv> what's wrong with ubuntu.osuosl.org mirror?
[16:52] <indrora> tuv: nothing.
[16:52] <Natanaiel> tucemiux: but u undelete your deleted partition not reformatted!
[16:52] <indrora> I'm getting at it fine.
[16:52] <funkyHat> tuv: looks fine here
[16:52] <tonsofpcs> indrora: so 8.04 (hardy) > 9.10 (intrepid?) > 10.04 (lucid) ?
[16:52] <tuv> i get: server not found here
[16:53] <tucemiux> Natanaiel, I reformatted my hard drive with data on it :-(
[16:53] <tuv> i can get to www.osuosl.org, but not ubuntu.osuosl.org
[16:53] <indrora> tonsofpcs: yeah. Its like Debian. An option is to make a backup of your /home/ directory if you dont have it on a seperate partition and simply re-install, but that could lead to issues.
[16:53] <indrora> tuv: Who's your DNS?
[16:53] <indrora> tuv: DNS or ISP -- sounds like they need to be complained to
[16:54] <indrora> 'cause I can get at it fine.
[16:54] <tuv> i've been using this mirror for a while. it was working!
[16:54] <feedmecereal> Is there a way that I can find I package in Synaptic that I just recently installed?
[16:55] <indrora> tuv: can you get to http://slackware.osuosl.org/ ?
[16:55] <Oer> tucemiux, i can get @ ubuntu.osuosl.org, no problem
[16:55] <tonsofpcs> indrora: so how do i do that? update apt.sources to have intrepid, apt-get update, apt-get dist-upgrade, repeat for lucid?
[16:55] <andyltm> Does the /proc/cpuinfo generally report repeated processors when dealing with a Dual Processor, single cored Xeon system - or will it list the processor just once?
[16:55] <indrora> tonsofpcs: See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LucidUpgrades <--
[16:56] <tonsofpcs> ah, was looking for that,  thanks :)
[16:56] <indrora> tonsofpcs: that has a "8.04 to 10.04"
[16:56] <tonsofpcs> andyltm: mine lists all cores as separate procs
[16:56] <andyltm> tonsofpcs: I see...
[16:56] <aguitel> i remove all gnome stuff ,how enable sound anyway?
[16:56] <tuv> indrora: hmm.. no
[16:57] <BigWookie> hey i'm trying to remix an ubuntu and it worked for a few times but now i get "Authentication failure" and it's repeating when it's booted up , and i cant do anything
[16:57] <tonsofpcs> it shows physicalid the same for all cores but increments the coreid and apicid
[16:57] <tucemiux> tonsofpcs, what vversion you currently have?  If you have an older version you might as well just install lucid from an ISO, upgrading to lucy will take a very **long** time and you might have to deal with bugs
[16:57] <acovrig> how do I forward mail (when I ssh, it says 'You have new mail') to a gmail account?
[16:57] <tonsofpcs> note that i don't have two procs but just two cores
[16:57] <indrora> tuv: then its something unrelated to the mirror as I can get to them no problem
[16:58] <DaveG|> hi, i've followed the community guide for gitosis at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Git and i'm having problems creating my repos. every time i try to push changes for a new repo, it tells me "Repository read access denied" i've followed the guide perfectly and can't fine anything wrong with the documentation. i've enabled debug on the logging
[16:58] <tucemiux> BigWookie, so you cant log in?
[16:58] <llutz> acovrig: configure your MDA  to forward your user-mails or just create a "~/.forward" file to do
[16:58] <lrb> michel_v: Try USA Dvorak international and compose key +char (right alt) gives you àôéö etc
[16:58] <BigWookie> tucemiux: nope and the standard login dosn't work either
[16:58] <acovrig> llutz: how?
[16:59] <Alexnov> odd
[16:59] <michel_v> lrb: this is the layout I use
[16:59] <tucemiux> BigWookie, have you tried unclicking the "Caps Lock" key?
[16:59] <llutz> acovrig: read the documentation of yuo mta/mda
[16:59] <llutz> your
[16:59] <michel_v> lrb: I don't want just "é" for accent on "e"
[16:59] <tonsofpcs> hmm, indrora, that talks about using the gui app... I donn't have X installed
[16:59] <andyltm> http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/eQQV6Wf7 - Does that report 2GB RAM in your opinion?
[16:59] <michel_v> lrb: I want other accents too because they're used in my mother tongue :)
[16:59] <BigWookie> tucemiux: i don't even get to the login, im on a live cd which has the standard ubuntu login mechanism (console ) which should just log me in without a password
[17:00] <acovrig> llutz: where is that?
[17:00] <lrb> michel_v: ah, I see, yes that layout is just for simple use cases ,sorry
[17:00] <acovrig> llutz: not /usr/share/doc
[17:00] <tucemiux> BigWookie, that's a little different, that info could be useful, have you tried logging in without  username/password?  or try su or root with a blank password
[17:01] <llutz> acovrig: what mta/mda are you using?
[17:03] <BigWookie> tucemiux: there is no password input, normally i just get to the tty without entering anything, and I cant enter anything even now
[17:03] <tonsofpcs> ah, got it :)
[17:04] <tucemiux> BigWookie, do you have another OS installed in your machine? it sounds like a known bug that has to do with the time on the other OS or the BIOS, check the time on both the BIOS and whatever OS you have installed, first check the oS then the bios
[17:04] <selofi> canal español, please?
[17:04] <jan_> hey anyone could help me with problem?
[17:04] <tucemiux> BigWookie, it could also be a bad burn, check the md5sum on the CD's ISO
[17:04] <BluesKaj> !es
[17:04] <Srjan87> hello, i have a problem booting Ubuntu Live 10.4 on my laptop, who can i ask for help?
[17:04] <tucemiux> !ask| Srjan87
[17:05] <Roasted> Video Problem - I have a laptop with an Intel video card. Sometimes when I boot up, my resolution is off. Other times I boot up, it thinks a second monitor exists because my mouse disappears off to the right side. I can cure this by FN + F8 (most times) but its a pain when my items/icons/etc in the top panel get all re-arranged when I change back to native resolution. How can I set it so Ubuntu just... works?
[17:06] <Srjan87> i stored ubuntu instalation on my USB drive, and when i restart the PC, select "boot from USB Drive", Ubuntu loading screen appears, then shortly after that, the screen goes "crazy" and my PC freezes....
[17:07] <BigWookie> tucemiux: ran it on 3 different systems , and the auto checksum test on boot is going good
[17:07] <tucemiux> Srjan87, after your PC freezes, have you tried going into a console?
[17:08] <tucemiux> BigWookie, then I suspect it has something to do with the time on either the OS or the BIOS
[17:08] <Srjan87> i cannot do anything...after it freezes, i have to restart the PC manualy...
[17:08] <tuv> what are alternatives for my isp dns server?
[17:08] <tucemiux> Srjan87, have you tried using the USB drive on another machine?
[17:08] <BigWookie> tucemiux: as mentioned it is a live CD
[17:09] <domovoi> anyone tell me what the most similar irc client is to mirc in windows
[17:09] <crackpot> how can i get grub to rebuild /boot/grub/menu.lst?  i ran "sudo update-grub" but it did not include the new kernel in the list.
[17:09] <tucemiux> tuv, how is that problem with ubuntu?
[17:09] <michel_v> thanks anyway lrb
[17:09] <Srjan87> no, i haven't yet...but, i have tried Live CD as well...and after loading screen, i can hear some sounds when i press the arrow keys, but the screen is...rather strange and i cant see anything
[17:10] <yurau> test
[17:10] <tucemiux> BigWookie, ok try burning another CD, test on another machine, if it works then try it on the machine that you are having problems on, if you still have the same problem you know it's not the live CD
[17:10] <Srjan87> and yes, i have Asus K50IN notebook
[17:10] <an0n> <.<
[17:10] <an0n> >.>
[17:10] <an0n> <3333333333 ubuntu
[17:10] <BigWookie> tucemiux: i know it is the cd i tried it in a vm with the image, and with 3 different burns on 2 other pcs :|
[17:12] <h00k> !md5 | BigWookie
[17:12] <EvilTrek> is there a way to use .scr files as screensavers on Lynx?
[17:12] <domovoi> anyone tell me what the most similar irc client is to mirc in windows ??
[17:12] <tucemiux> Srjan87, it sounds like the live cd youre using doesnt have the drivers for your notebook
[17:13] <h00k> domovoi: xchat, perhaps
[17:13] <crackpot> domovoi: xchat is wonderful
[17:14] <an0n> Xchat domovoi
[17:14] <crackpot> how can i get grub to rebuild it's menu.lst file to include the kernel update I just installed? 2.6.32-23-generic
[17:14] <crackpot> i tried "sudo update-grub" but it did not include the kernel update i just installed.
[17:15] <Srjan87> how do i get the drivers???
[17:16] <tucemiux> Srjan87, you can try configuring the USB drive to use vesa drivers
[17:16] <crackpot> is it possible to uninstall old versions of the kernel?
[17:18] <melengo> include
[17:19] <NickSpam> crackpot: use Synaptic package manager. keep at least 1 old kernel you know boots without problem
[17:19] <Srjan87> please, how do i configure the USB drive to use vesa drivers
[17:19] <crackpot> yep, that's what i do, couldn't remember if synaptic could uninstall old kernels
[17:19] <NickSpam> it can install them :)
[17:20] <BluesKaj> crackpot, yes with package manager is best, but keep at least 2 , one for a sort of backup.
[17:20] <Muzer> Due to a bug in snd-hda-intel, I had to upgrade to the backports audio drivers. However, whoever compiled this package forgot to add saa7134-alsa.ko (used for audio on my PC Card), so now that driver fails to load due to a version mismatch. Is there an easy way to compile just that driver so that it will work with backports?
[17:20] <Muzer> (I have reported a bug, but last time I checked there were no comments on it)
[17:21] <crackpot> well hell while im messing with grub, anyone have a good splash image for grub?
[17:21] <tucemiux> Srjan87, you can try asking again at another time and someone that has done that might be able to help you, you can also try asking in #ubuntu-offtopic but remember, that channel is not for ubuntusupport
[17:22] <Srjan87> ok, thanks
[17:22] <BluesKaj> crackpot, http://www.ubuntu-inside.me/2009/06/howto-change-grub2-grub-pc-splash-image.html
[17:23] <crackpot> i know how to change it, i was asking if anyone had any good ones.
[17:23] <NickSpam> crackpot: that is really up to you if the image is "good" or not
[17:23] <otswim> with sudo, how can i set the "normal" permissions for a folder for my user?
[17:24] <crackpot> ...not very helpful...
[17:24] <Muzer> otswim: sudo chown username:username folder; chmod 0755 folder
[17:24] <Muzer> where BOTH instances of "username" are your username
[17:24] <Muzer> eg mine would be muzer:muzer
[17:24] <otswim> thanks :)
[17:25] <Roasted> Video Problem - I have a laptop with an Intel video card. Sometimes when I boot up, my resolution is off.

[17:25] <otswim> i also need -R
[17:25] <Muzer> otswim: you do if you want to do it recursively
[17:25] <Muzer> I thought you just meant a single folder, not its contents
[17:25] <BluesKaj> crackpot, well, works for me ...it does take some effort , you have toconvert regular jpegs to tga files if you want to add your own.
[17:25] <melengo> v
[17:26] <otswim> thanks :)
[17:26] <crackpot> ffs, i was just asking if anyone had any good splash images they liked, no more, no less.
[17:26] <sabuntu> can anyone help me with android sdk and ant?
[17:26] <Dr_Willis> hmm. I thought grub2 could use jpegs. but im not sure now, :) i nomrally use pngs'
[17:27] <Dr_Willis> crackpot:  ive seen scripts that sync the users wallpaper and the grub splash image
[17:27] <crackpot> im not running grub2, wasnt updated when i updated to 10.04
[17:27] <crackpot> that would be cool, i love my wallpaper
[17:27] <Shinydan> How can I reset the playcounts on Rhythmbox to zero without having to re-import all my music?
[17:27] <Dr_Willis> but i imagine it was grub2 only

[17:32] <Guest19001> Hi
[17:32] <sabuntu> crackpot: ambiance is the correct spelling actually
[17:32] <afed> i've got intel raid on the motherboard and a sil raid card
[17:32] <crackpot> many thanks, installing now
[17:32] <afed> and i can make a mirror on eithr one and dmraid sees it
[17:32] <afed> but then i can't make a lvm volume on the devic
[17:33] <afed> using the 10.04 alternate install disk
[17:33] <h00k> afed: try to keep the comments all on one line, it makes it a lot easier to follow

[17:35] <afed> it doesn't work without lvm either
[17:35] <melengo> #ccposts
[17:35] <afed> odd that i can partition the raid device but not make filesystems on those partitions
[17:36] <thune3> Muzer: what was your original problem? do you have link to bug report?
[17:36] <Muzer> my original problem was pulseaudio applications took ages to quit - it turned out the driver was returning the wrong data to pulseaudio, and it thought it still had to play more when it didn't
[17:36] <Muzer> I'll see if I can call up the bug report now

[17:48] <joebobjoe> can anyone direct my to a guide on how to make an upstart?
[17:49] <kgrant> just upgraded to lucid and it seems like something is waiting to interpret my quotes ('"`) as accented characters. 1) what is doing that autochording? 2) how do I disable it?
[17:49] <terry> joebobjoe: upstart?
[17:49] <melengo> Making all in po
[17:49] <joebobjoe> terry: how i get something to start at boot up, like hostapd
[17:50] <Xcell> i have a question, why is microsoft-ds banging my firewall  ?
[17:50] <SoulDemon> how do i install from a live cd to a flash drive?
[17:50] <Muzer> Xcell: because Microsoft is evil, I guess
[17:50] <terry> joebobjoe: Depends on what WM you use.  gnome or kde or?
[17:50] <blind> SoulDemon, you want to make a bootable flash drive?
[17:50] <Xcell> but i dont have windoze on here.
[17:50] <joebobjoe> using ubuntu server
[17:50] <acovrig> squirrelmail Error connecting to IMAP server: localhost. 111: Connection refused, why?
[17:50] <SoulDemon> i guess i have a live cd and want to install it onto a flash drive instead of my hd
[17:51] <BluesKaj> is double clicking the default in gnome ..I've been searching for the option to change it but preferences doesn't have one.
[17:51] <llutz> acovrig: check imapd logs
[17:51] <thune3> Muzer: I understand you are looking for the backports kernel module. But how did you verify that backports was the only way to go, and did you try the snd-hda-intel options for your hardware?
[17:51] <blind> SoulDemon, I don't know how possible that is.. you can put a live environment on a usb drive, for sure.
[17:51] <terry> joebobjoe: If you use Gnome, in your Gnome session go to System>Preferences>Sessions and use the Startup Programs tab
[17:51] <acovrig> llutz: in /var/log?
[17:52] <llutz> acovrig: usually yes
[17:52] <joebobjoe> terry: i use ubuntu server
[17:52] <NickSpam> !usb > SoulDemon
[17:52] <SoulDemon> i was trying to install it to my hd but it keeps trying to use the whole drive.
[17:52] <joebobjoe> terry: should i ask the server irc?
[17:52] <Muzer> thune3: I didn't, actually. What would be the option for an ASUS P5B-SE motherboard's onboard audio?
[17:52] <terry> joebobjoe: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AddingProgramToSessionStartup
[17:52] <Muzer> (sorry I'm not googling, but my brother is downloading loads of stuff from Steam which is clogging up our slow internet connection, and making browsing the web nearly impossible)
[17:52] <trism> kgrant: ibus can do that, but it shouldn't be enabled by default, check the keyboard icon in your notification area/indicator applet and see if it is enabled (or System/Preferences/Ibus Preferences)
[17:53] <acovrig> llutz: non-existant, I might not have imap, how do I install it `apt-get install imapd`?
[17:53] <joebobjoe> terry: thanks ill have a look
[17:53] <terry> joebobjoe: What is it that you want to start?
[17:53] <joebobjoe> terry: hostapd, a daemon for wireless access point
[17:53] <joebobjoe> terry: i also want my "wlan0" netowrk interface to start at bootup too, but i cant get it to with /network/interfaces
[17:54] <kgrant> trism: nothing on panel, when I select iBus from preferences it says it is not running. (alternate install if that makes a difference)
[17:54] <joebobjoe> terry: but thats another story
[17:54] <terry> joebobjoe: Is hostpad a stand alone application?
[17:54] <thune3> this might have been changed by your backports upgrade, but the file /usr/share/doc/alsa-base/driver/HD-Audio-Models.txt.gz
[17:54] <Muzer> thune3: thanks, I'll take a look.
[17:54] <trism> kgrant: then I have no idea, sorry
[17:54] <terry> joebobjoe: You probably want to create startup script for it.
[17:54] <SoulDemon> what the min size of the partition need to install on HD?
[17:55] <thune3> Muzer: has the options, your bugreport said you have ALC662 mixer, there are many ASUS options listed.
[17:55] <SoulDemon> i try to setup 15gb but it says it was to small
[17:55] <grumete> any body knows how to change the login screen in lucyd? thanks, I know this is not a real essential question.

[17:57] <sKeiths> i've just added a new physical netcard, currently eth0 eth1 is used. there is no eth2 in ifconfig, but i see ethernet card in lspci. can anyone tell me name of file where initial netcard setup happens. i remember it happening in rc.conf file in a bsd i once used
[17:57] <grumete> I haven't done that yet jiohdi.
[17:57] <qattusverse> anyone know how to configure lighttpd to not use the root user?
[17:57] <grumete> mmh what do you want to do, listen to some radio station?
[17:57] <threelefts> anyone know of a way to convert an animated gif to anything else in linux?? Every tutorial I tried online did not work...
[17:57] <joebobjoe> terry: no it doesnt start by itself never has
[17:57] <terry> joebobjoe: The startup script is actually a pretty good way.  Just create the script and drop it in /etc/init.d
[17:57] <jiohdi> grumete: a pod cast
[17:57] <grumete> oh
[17:57] <terry> joebobjoe: and chomd +x it
[17:57] <joebobjoe> terry: what does chomd do?
[17:58] <terry> joebobjoe: chomd +x adds the executible bit
[17:58] <jiohdi> joebobjoe: nothing : its chmod
[17:58] <grumete> did you try with rythmbox? jiohdi?
[17:58] <joebobjoe> jiohdi: thanks
[17:58] <jiohdi> grumete: nope, does it play .ru files
[17:58] <SoulDemon> to gather ivs and injections do you need a special wireless nic card?
[17:58] <grumete> mmh you could try.
[17:58] <joebobjoe> terry: okay im going to go do some research
[17:59] <jiohdi> joebobjoe: I am dyslexic at tmies msyefl
[17:59] <grumete> jiohdi give it try it could work.
[17:59] <terry> joebobjoe: What does your /etc/networks/interfaces look like.  What to pastebin it?
[17:59] <jiohdi> grumete: thanks for the suggestion
[17:59] <qattusverse> jiohdi, most podcasts are in mp3 format
[17:59] <grumete> np jiohdi, I hope it works, sorry I'm just a normal guy.

[18:00] <joebobjoe> terry: do you mind if i reply a bit later my ubuntu machine isnt up
[18:00] <Muzer> thune3: How would I go about reloading the module with different options without rebooting?
[18:00] <terry> sKeiths: Actually I typed it wrong, it's /etc/network/interfaces I think.
[18:00] <jiohdi> grumete: thanks for your efforts anyways
[18:01] <grumete> jiohdi didn't work? :(
[18:01] <terry> joebobjoe: This looks pretty good: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBootupHowto
[18:01] <thune3> Muzer: change the option in /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf
[18:01] <jiohdi> didnt try yet... doing something else at the moment
[18:01] <sKeiths> terry, its okay, i'm at the machine and only needed the hint
[18:01] <thune3> Muzer: and run "sudo alsa force-reload"
[18:01] <Muzer> OK
[18:01] <terry> sKeiths: Okeydokey
[18:02] <Muzer> will removing the backports and running that command also work?
[18:02] <trism> kgrant: although you may want to check that you selected the correct keyboard layout
[18:03] <thune3> Muzer: i don't know if removing backports restores the original alsa files/modules.
[18:04] <acovrig> does anyone know how to install imap for squirrelmail?
[18:04] <ThatGuyOverThere> I need help editing my fstab file. I edited it so that my Windows partition would automount, but for some reason I don't have write access.
[18:05] <kgrant> trism: thanks..i think that was it.
[18:05] <slidinghorn> acovrig, someone told you to check the imapd log...what did it say?
[18:06] <acovrig> slidinghorn: doesn't exist, `ls /var/log|grep imap` returns nothing, how do I install it
[18:07] <slidinghorn> acovrig, there's a link to a mailserver setup here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Squirrelmail
[18:07] <un214> does anyone have experience running ubuntu in a chroot jail as their primary system?
[18:10] <ThatGuyOverThere> Anybody? I need help figuring out how to get my Windows partition to automount with write access.

[18:13] <esma_19> hi all!
[18:13] <esma_19> which package i have to install to do that for ubuntu 10.04 ? http://www.crystalxp.net/news/img/893.jpg
[18:14] <akshay> abhi_nav  im running ubuntu 10.04 and im trying to connect a monitor to my laptop( ati readon x2300) ...but unfortunately i can not see my desktop on the o ther monitor
[18:14] <Oer> esma_19, looks like AWN avant windows manager
[18:14] <xangua> esma_19: cairo dock, docky , avant
[18:14] <Oer> indeed xangua it could be cairo dock too.
[18:15] <esma_19> xangua i have to install 3 of them . or just one of them ?
[18:15] <Muzer> the option to add is "model=<model-to-test>", right?
[18:15] <xangua> esma_19: the one you like more
[18:15] <esma_19> xangua:  Oer:  thank you!
[18:15] <slidinghorn> esma_19, wbar is another nice dock app
[18:16] <Oer> esma_19,  all docks do need compiz
[18:16] <aj00200>  /win 11
[18:16] <esma_19>  Oer: if compiz is disbaled so it will not work ? :(
[18:16] <Oer> esma_19,  yes
[18:16] <esma_19> hmm ok.
[18:16] <airgrace> hi, can someone recommend some good media players :), mainly for music.
[18:16] <abhi_nav> akshay, i dunno solution but you try forums. there are lots of results for dual monitor in lucid
[18:16] <slidinghorn> esma_19, that is correct.  they need compiz for rendering and I believe for their transparency capabilities
[18:16] <aj00200> airgrace: MPlayer and Miro
[18:17] <smt-mobil> ive got a problem with my wifi connector (realtec RTL8187B), while showing a stable signal strength, the datatransfer is very instable (extremely variing speed, stopping), any ideas how to fix that?
[18:17] <akshay> im running ubuntu 10.04 and im trying to connect a monitor to my laptop( ati readon x2300) ...but unfortunately i can not see my desktop on the o ther monitor
[18:17] <slidinghorn> !repeat | akshay
[18:17] <airgrace> aj00200: thanks :)
[18:17] <aj00200> airgrace: no problem
[18:17] <stercor> Is there an 'undelete' in Ubuntu?
[18:18] <smt-mobil> many laptops hav options in their bios do activate/deactivate external display connector, did u take a look there akshay?
[18:18] <aj00200> stercor: do you mean undelete from your hard-drive or do you mean undelete from your recycle-bin

[18:19] <white_mouse> what is the full link to ubuntu repo..so i can add to synaptic
[18:19] <NickSpam> airgrace: that list should keep you busy for a while :)
[18:19] <aj00200> stercor: photorec does it a good job
[18:19] <slidinghorn> !undelete | stercor
[18:19] <LjL> white_mouse: uh? it should be enabled already
[18:19] <akshay> smt-mobil when i connect my monitor the display starts flickering on the monitor
[18:19] <LjL> slidinghorn: already gave that to him
[18:19] <white_mouse> LjL: yes,but i need it...
[18:19] <slidinghorn> LjL, stercor oh, sorry
[18:19] <akshay> smt-mobil so i think my os detects the monitor
[18:20] <smt-mobil> akshay,  might be a resolution problem then
[18:20] <white_mouse> the thing is i want to enable on PCLOS,ubuntu font rendering...
[18:20] <LjL> white_mouse: there is not really one repository - there are a few that you need to setup for your system to work properly. perhaps you could pastebin your current /etc/apt/sources.list so we can see what's missing?
[18:20] <abhi_nav> date
[18:21] <LjL> white_mouse: oh. well i guess we don't support PCLOS here, but the ubuntu repos are at http://archive.ubuntu.com/ - just navigate from there. however, keep in mind that it's usually dangerous to enable a distro's repos in another distro.
[18:21] <NickSpam> LjL: what is missing from his sources is all the ubuntu repos. he is running pclos
[18:21] <akshay> smt-mobil  do u have a any solid solution to resolve this problem as ...i tried to fix the resol..but that didnt help
[18:21] <white_mouse> LjL: ok,thanks mate...
[18:21] <white_mouse> little guide on how to add it to synaptic properly?
[18:22] <LjL> no sorry i'm not going to give a step by step guide on how to hose your system
[18:22] <white_mouse> hehe...ok...
[18:22] <white_mouse> ;)
[18:22] <grekkos> Hi, I just installed ubuntu on my laptop and when I reboot I'm getting the interactive grub shell. What do I need to do to put the grub menu back in?
[18:22] <smt-mobil> hmm no akshay, did u try booting with the external display connected?
[18:23] <akshay> yes
[18:23] <abhi_nav> !grub2 > grekkos
[18:23] <slidinghorn> !restoregrub | grekkos
[18:23] <akshay> smt-mobil yes
[18:23] <wildbat> !grub2 | grekkos  ,read the recovering from liveCD
[18:23] <Muzer> thune3: Right, I've tried all the ASUS-related options, and all of them not only fail to fix the bug, but also reduce me to stereo
[18:23] <smt-mobil> akshay, hmm no idea than, didnt try it on my laptop (dont need a 4th display on my desk)
[18:24] <akshay> smt-mobil ok
[18:24] <bihari> ?
[18:24] <bihari> ram ram
[18:24] <Muzer> well, many of them reduce it to stereo
[18:24] <Muzer> but none fix the bug
[18:25] <grekkos> abhi_nav: one more question, I think grub is on the MBR of the primary hard drive in the machine /dev/sda, however my linux is installed to /dev/sdb -- really what I want to do here is put windows boot loader back on /dev/sda and be able to boot to the usb partition directly. Is this possible?
[18:25] <sirishkumar> linux
[18:25] <bihari> what we can do with this ubuntu
[18:25] <grekkos> I'm actually a little irritated that the ubuntu 10 installer did not give me a choice of where to install the boot loader
[18:26] <abhi_nav> grekkos, thta is possible. but in that case though your lin is installed in sdb you install grub on same as that of win i.e. sda
[18:26] <jan_> I had problems with gwibber..it won't let me add facebook on it. Hope you guys will help.
[18:26] <bihari> what is bootloader?
[18:26] <abhi_nav> grekkos, it gives. at the very end in advanced option
[18:26] <abhi_nav> jan_, what you are writing as 'username'?
[18:26] <grekkos> abhi_nav: I guess I'm used to the slackware installer where it explicitly asks where the user would like to install the boot loader
[18:27] <h00k> bihari: You are welcome to join #ubuntu-beginners if you're new to Ubuntu
[18:27] <acovrig> slidinghorn: that is ok, so I went to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MailServer then https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Postfix and uninstall SMTP, now I am confuzed and it says that it needs SMTP
[18:27] <abhi_nav> grekkos, it is provided in very last windows there is advanced options tab there inside that
[18:27] <bihari> oki thanks h00k
[18:27] <xangua> jan_: gwibber has been recently acting weird, better try another client
[18:27] <solidturtle> hi, how do I do to force checking if there are usb devices plugged?
[18:28] <Muzer> solidturtle: it usually checks automatically
[18:28] <Muzer> solidturtle: what device in particular is it? You may need to load a module for it
[18:28] <solidturtle> Muzer: I know but here it does not
[18:28] <bihari> what are the elements do i have to learn in ubuntu-beginer? channls
[18:28] <grekkos> abhi_nav: fdisk -l is not listing my internal drives
[18:28] <solidturtle> I have this problem with several usb drive
[18:28] <Mo__> hey guys trying to install ubuntu on linux and then bind it to active directory for a single sign-on. I have been messing around with likewise open source. i was wandering if any of you awesome people had any experience doing the same thing and can point me in the right direction. I am very new at this. Any help would be much appreciated.
[18:28] <Muzer> hmm
[18:28] <abhi_nav> grekkos, that I dunno.
[18:29] <abhi_nav> grekkos, busy
[18:29] <h00k> solidturtle: it should do it already, you can check any recent activity by doing 'dmesg | tail' in a !terminal, then plugging it in, and comparing 'dmesg | tail' after you plug it in
[18:29] <Mo__> samba on ubuntu*
[18:29] <solidturtle> h00k: ok I will test
[18:29] <osmario> Hi all! what's best program to download mp3 at Ubuntu?
[18:29] <acovrig> slidinghorn: do I need SMTP?
[18:30] <aj00200> osmario: download from where?
[18:30] <Oer> !best|osmario
[18:31] <slidinghorn> acovrig, yes...you need smtp *and* IMAP...smtp is "send mail transfer protocol" which allows you to use the server to -- well, send mail.  IMAP allows you to download the email from other locations...
[18:31] <Muzer> actually, it's simple mail transfer protocol I believe
[18:31] <Muzer> just nitpicking :P
[18:31] <grekkos> My computer boots into the grub interactive shell rather than a grub menu, how can I place the menu back (the instructions on the ubuntu site did not help)
[18:31] <acovrig> slidinghorn: when I installed imap, it remove smtp
[18:31] <osmario> download from net. I am using Nicotine but sometimes it's poor and slow
[18:32] <Muzer> you don't need smtp, I think, if you have IMAP - do not quote me on this, however
[18:32] <thune3> Muzer: sorry that didn't work. i thought module parameters were worth a shot, good luck with backports or latest-source from alsa.
[18:32] <slidinghorn> acovrig, what delivery agent did you use?
[18:32] <escastilho> Alguém do Brasil?
[18:32] <acovrig> slidinghorn: delivery agent?
[18:32] <Muzer> thune3: So, back to my original question - how would I compile a module that is technically not part of ALSA, but is dependant on ALSA, so that it will work with the backports?
[18:33] <slidinghorn> acovrig, it's explained in the mailserver howto you were following
[18:33] <grekkos> How can I figure out where grub installed itself?
[18:33] <acovrig> slidinghorn: `apt-get install postfix`
[18:33] <jan_> What other gwibber alternatives can you recommend because I can't seem to add my FB account.
[18:34] <thune3> Muzer: do you have a link for the source you need to compile?
[18:34] <slidinghorn> acovrig, for future reference, it's recommended that you read all the way through a tutorial before performing any of the tasks within it...
[18:34] <Muzer> thune3: Not at the moment - it's usually just included with the kernel, in Ubuntu at least, I believe
[18:34] <slidinghorn> acovrig, you should read further down in that howto...it tells you about dovecot, etc...
[18:35] <Muzer> is there some package/PPA that contains the latest "Ubuntu-ised" version of the whole kernel (modules and the kernel itself)? That would solve all my problems
[18:35] <Mo__> so whats the alternative for active directory in linux? i am just looking for a single sign on service for my linux users. I would like to bind it to active directory but that does not seem that simple :\
[18:35] <hdtdi> guys when i have a server http://host.com:5080.. then i add a ssl now my host is https://host.com right? because now when i write https://host.com i get this page to accept the certificate and then when i write https://host.com/folder i get not found
[18:35] <Muzer> (but not any other package)
[18:36] <acovrig> slidinghorn: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MailServer just confuzes me
[18:38] <acovrig> slidinghorn: what do I need for IMAP?

[18:42] <abhi_nav> grekkos, follow what BluesKaj is saying.
[18:43] <spaz926> is anybody good with eggdrop?
[18:43] <grekkos> BluesKaj: I am running linux from the liveCD right now, the grub-update won't work unless i have the partition mounted
[18:43] <slidinghorn> vodanh, то вы должны присоединиться к русским каналом ... это ваше последнее предупреждение /join #ubuntu-ru
[18:43] <acovrig> abhi_nav: I think vodanh is a diff lang, ubottu told them about #ubuntu-ru
[18:43] <abhi_nav> acovrig, ok
[18:43] <mikolapiz> hi
[18:43] <grekkos> BluesKaj: I have 2 partitions on my sda sda1 (Compaq restore) sda2 (windows) I can't seem to mount /dev/sda1 which is the one i think i have to mount

[18:44] <abhi_nav> BluesKaj, forgive for me for that . that was incomplete sentence. no insult
[18:44] <acovrig> slidinghorn: it looks kinda funny to me, cuz all I see are \ and random numbers lol
[18:44] <slidinghorn> acovrig, oh, you must not have all the language packs installed
[18:45] <slidinghorn> we're going OT though....let's move on :)

[18:47] <grekkos> BluesKaj: i just want to put the menu back
[18:48] <grekkos> BluesKaj: i'm pretty sure I can repair it from this interactive shell, too, but I'm not seeing any instructions online on how to do it like this -- I've never had any issues like this in recovering grub before (and technically grub is still there so I don't have to recover it)

[18:53] <tracker> hi
[18:53] <drew212> how do i change the user of a folder? i used photorec to recover some photos and i had to use root privalages and now i need root to access the pictures
[18:53] <thune3> Muzer: from alsa kernel drivers (http://www.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Download) there is a sourcefile aw2-saa7146.c that gets baked into a module snd-aw2.ko (i dont see anything named 7134)
[18:53] <Muzer> thune3: It's not part of ALSA, that's the problem
[18:53] <tracker> We have a wireless router and we have a problem in using the internet. Some use too much and other don't. I need to manage my router to give each user 2 gig since we have signed up for 8 gigs. Is it possible to do so. if the answer is yes, can u please help me out before my roommates get angry at me. my wireless router is TP-Link (Tl-WR740N).
[18:53] <Muzer> if it was part of ALSA, it would work
[18:53] <Muzer> but it depends on ALSA
[18:54] <grekkos> mkquist: in the past, that guide has helped me recover grub, right now it is not working for me
[18:54] <amabo> after doing sudo dpkg -i <package>, do i need to run apt-get update (or upgrade) in order for it to take effect?

[18:55] <Haxor> hi all, how i can start the ethernet interface in console ( i have a command line install) ?
[18:55] <slidinghorn> MaMoUs, I feel a little uncomfortable getting into this, as it can easily be used for less than honest purposes, but this was what I was able to find... http://www.ubuntugeek.com/howto-crack-zip-files-password.html it's from 2008, so I'm not sure how up-to-date it would be.
[18:55] <Muzer> Haxor: sudo ifconfig eth0 up; sudo dhclient eth0
[18:55] <Muzer> Haxor: (if using DHCP)
[18:56] <grekkos> mkquist: grub is working just fine if I want to type in all the commands manually, but I don't
[18:56] <Haxor> Muzer: i goint to try
[18:56] <MaMoUs> slidinghorn: well i try that and it did not work
[18:56] <Traveler6> hey all, what to do if KDM does not start and Xorg.0.log tells nvidia driver could not be loaded (nv 6600gt, kubuntu lucid latest dist-upgrade)#
[18:56] <MaMoUs> slidinghorn: so one of my friends told me to install that one, cz it will help me
[18:56] <slidinghorn> MaMoUs, well that's as much as I can offer...sorry :-\
[18:56] <Haxor> Muzer: thnks the ethernet is working =)
[18:56] <oCean_> MaMoUs: I agree with slidinghorn, since we do not know whether the files are really yours, I think you should seek help elsewhere
[18:56] <Muzer> Haxor: No problem
[18:57] <greg_> drew212, sudo chown -R user:user /path/to/folder
[18:57] <MaMoUs> slidinghorn: oky man
[18:57] <MaMoUs> oCean_: dude God i'm not that guy who hax, i just apply to University and i encrypted me files soo no one use it, thats all (i forget my password)
[18:58] <Gump> #ubuntu, i have a problem. whenever a key is pressed on my keyboard, my mouse sticks for roughly a second
[18:58] <oCean_> MaMoUs: you can claim all you want, questionably legal practices are not welcome here
[18:58] <Gump> obviously, this makes games that utilize wasd impossible
[18:58] <Gump> any idea why this would be the case?
[18:58] <MaMoUs> oCean_: oky thx any way
[18:58] <brattypita> how can i find out whats causing the time-outs with internet on lucid 64 bit
[18:59] <slidinghorn> Gump, unfortunately I don't know how to help, but for future reference, try to keep your questions/responses to one line.  It makes things easier for everyone to follow :)
[18:59] <Gump> slidinghorn thx for the tip
[19:00] <BluesKaj> grekkos, did you put your ubuntu install in the first partition , before the windows partition ? It's preferable to put windows first.
[19:00] <thune3> Muzer: oh, it is not part of alsa then. I'm not clear on why alsa-backports would want to include it. That module is part of the kernel. You are saying it doesn't load?
[19:00] <grekkos> BluesKaj: ubuntu is on a separate, external hard drive... which is where I'm guessing the grub menu is located
[19:00] <Gump> BluesKaj, why? it seemed to work better for me to install windows after ubuntu
[19:01] <Muzer> thune3: It doesn't load when alsa-backports is installed
[19:01] <Muzer> as the versions are then mismatched
[19:01] <Euphus> any good free linux-gamesites?
[19:01] <xand__> hello, any of you guys using kupfer can please tell me if it is possible to make it index deeper levels of a directory, as it is possible with gnome-do ?
[19:01] <lost> im in trouble. i have installed gcc 4.2 by hand instead from repo. now i could not load back gcc 4.4
[19:01] <thune3> Muzer: maybe run "sync" and try a forced module load? (could crash system)
[19:02] <oCean_> !fun | Euphus
[19:02] <Muzer> thune3: modprobe -f, right?
[19:02] <Euphus> thnx ;)
[19:02] <Muzer> I'll install backports again then
[19:02] <greg_> So are there any grub2 gurus out there?
[19:02] <amabo> i'm trying to install the wireless package for macbooks manually but it's not being updated (after a dpkg install using http://packages.ubuntu.com/lucid/bcmwl-kernel-source) - any insight?
[19:03] <grekkos> greg_: apparently not, my name is also greg and I am also looking for grub assistance
[19:03] <Gump> using lucid 32 bit here, every time i press a key, my mouse freezes for about a second. this renders gaming impossible. any idea what would be causing this?
[19:03] <BluesKaj> grekkos, oh , that's different , i'm sorry for interfering , i should have read your prob more closely, not familiar with grub on outboard drives.
[19:03] <thune3> Muzer:  i think the right option for a failed version check is " --force-modversion"
[19:03] <Traveler6> hey all, what to do if KDM does not start and Xorg.0.log tells nvidia driver could not be loaded (nv 6600gt, kubuntu lucid latest dist-upgrade)
[19:04] <greg_> grekkos, why did they change grub? Menu.lst was the bomb.
[19:04] <grekkos> BluesKaj: that's the problem, there's not much written about it online. the grub menu was working great until I installed the ubuntu updates
[19:04] <Muzer> thune3: OK, I'll give it a try
[19:04] <grekkos> greg_: that's also what I'm looking for
[19:05] <thune3> Muzer: make sure to run "sync" beforehand, to minimize the potential filesystem problems that might occur if the kernel crashes.
[19:05] <amabo> i'm trying to install the wireless package for macbooks manually but it's not being updated (after a dpkg install using http://packages.ubuntu.com/lucid/bcmwl-kernel-source) - any insight?
[19:05] <Muzer> will do
[19:05] <Muzer> I'm using ext4, so crashes are handled quite well - but better safe than sorry in any case.
[19:06] <grekkos> greg_: you can try #grub I'm also in there trying for answers
[19:07] <greg_> grekkos, thanks will do
[19:07] <Sirisian> Is there a way to check if a user has the right to run a command without running it?
[19:07] <Sirisian> (To see if they have the permissions I guess to run it). Like if I wanted to find out if user "mark" can run useradd.
[19:09] <Traveler6> hey all, what to do if KDM does not start and Xorg.0.log tells nvidia driver could not be loaded (nv 6600gt, kubuntu lucid latest dist-upgrade kernel 2.6.32-22)
[19:09] <Muzer> thune3: right, if I dc now, you know what happened
[19:10] <thune3> Muzer: dc?
[19:10] <Muzer> disconnect

[19:12] <amabo> i'm trying to install the wireless package for macbooks manually but it's not being updated (after a dpkg install using http://packages.ubuntu.com/lucid/bcmwl-kernel-source) - any insight? do i have to run apt-get update (or upgrade) in order for it to take effect?

[19:13] <xand__> hello, any of you guys using kupfer can please tell me if it is possible to make it index deeper levels of a directory, as it is possible with gnome-do ?
[19:14] <lost> anyone can help to remove gcc 4.2 from my system
[19:14] <Traveler6> hey all, what to do if KDM does not start and Xorg.0.log tells nvidia driver could not be loaded (nv 6600gt, kubuntu lucid latest dist-upgrade kernel 2.6.32-22)
[19:14] <matthew_> darksifer...when I do that some partitions are locked and I can't do anything to them
[19:14] <crescendo> @lost: sudo apt-get remove gcc
[19:15] <darksifer> @mattew: what about using a windows bootable cd?
[19:15] <Chriisti> hello how solve this ? ->http://i46.tinypic.com/1678176.png
[19:15] <lost> well,  could try but when i get the prompt Type Yes do as i say i think its not a good thing to do
[19:15] <cha0xm1nd> heya all...
[19:16] <matthew_> darksifer...I have a win7 disc somewhere, would that allow me to make it so I have one disk with zero partitions?
[19:16] <darksifer> @mattew: yes
[19:17] <slidinghorn> Chriisti, did you report the bug, as it instructed you to?
[19:17] <Chriisti> yes
[19:18] <slidinghorn> what's the link to the report?
[19:18] <thune3> Traveler6: boot a previous working kernel. dkms should have compiled a new interface for the new kernel, but is sounds like maybe this failed.
[19:18] <elaf22> hi
[19:19] <slidinghorn> !hi | elaf22
[19:19] <sereal> Hello, I just installed gufw using apt-get but I'm getting a error "ImportError: No module named gtk" I have the python-gtk2 package...
[19:19] <matthew_> darksifer, cool thanks
[19:19] <elaf22> brb
[19:20] <sereal> also, what happened to the python2.5 command?
[19:20] <sereal> I used to be able to do python2.5 file.py to make sure the program is run under python2.5
[19:21] <sebsebseb> Hi
[19:21] <thune3> Traveler6: you are running nvidia driver from repositories? or you downloaded and installed from nvidia?
[19:22] <lost> crescendo: it almost worked now! tks but i do have this installed -)  i   llvm-gcc-4.2
[19:23] <Oer> when i connect rdp with my ubuntu-pc, i need to run home to accept remote desktop (add to keyring), how do i solve this from happening ?
[19:24] <Traveler6> thune3 i used the driver from repos
[19:27] <Fuze> I have a MacBook Pro. Can I like dual boot OS X and Ubuntu?
[19:27] <user_> ubuntu 10.04 server doesnt see any ethernet ports, just shows loopback on ifconfig, can anyone help pelase?
[19:27] <darksifer> @Fuze: yes
[19:28] <MJ94> darksifer: I am Fuze - would my first step be to burn the iso?
[19:29] <Muzer> thune3: I'm back
[19:29] <darksifer> @MJ94: yes if you want to install from CD or DVD or you can make a bootable USB of Ubuntu
[19:29] <Muzer> any ideas about my errors?
[19:29] <sobersabre> hi. what can I do against accidental touchpad button clicks on lucid ?
[19:29] <Muzer> or should I just find a PPA with the whole of the latest kernel in it?
[19:29] <AnxiousNut> what's the difference between Ctrl+F5 and sHIFT+F5 in browsers?
[19:29] <sobersabre> also against accidental touchpad clicks.
[19:30] <MJ94> darksifer: I'll just use the DVD. When it's done burning, I'll come back for help.
[19:30] <sobersabre> AnxiousNut: I don't know of any.
[19:30] <sereal> Hello, I just installed gufw using apt-get but I'm getting a error "ImportError: No module named gtk" I have the python-gtk2 package...
[19:31] <sobersabre> AnxiousNut: it seems on my ubuntu lucid, in firefox Ctl+F5 is reload.
[19:31] <sobersabre> and Shift+F5 is nothing.
[19:31] <thune3> Traveler6: i might try reinstalling the nvidia drivers, hopfully this will compile the correct interface.
[19:31] <ifanchoo> hello
[19:32] <MJ94> darksifer: Desktop edition?
[19:33] <darksifer> @MJ94: see this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBook6-1/Lucid
[19:34] <thune3> Muzer: other than trying a full force (-f) no. I sounds like you need to compile kernel yourself or get latest kernel from ppa as you suggest.
[19:34] <darksifer> @MJ94: see this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBook6-1/Lucid or this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBook
[19:34] <Traveler6> thune3 okay i will try to reinstall drivers-.-
[19:35] <thune3> Traveler6: this probably should be done from tty after booting the kernel with the problem.
[19:35] <Daekdroom> Muzer, http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/
[19:35] <user_> solved my problem with "sudo ifup eth0"
[19:35] <MJ94> darksifer: Burn the iso first, though?
[19:35] <user_> seemed to kick the interface into life
[19:35] <Traveler6> okay :>

[19:45] <sebsebseb> sobersabre: you swore in your message
[19:45] <NET||abuse> sobersabre, i work from home 3 out of 5 days, so it's not alot that he'll be left alone
[19:46] <sebsebseb> NET||abuse: yeah you can do that with the camera sure, but I don't know the details
[19:47] <sobersabre> NET||abuse: I don't want to be rude, but taking a puppy home is a responsibility. don't you understand that dog is a pack animal ?

[19:47] <sebsebseb> deavid: maybe, so try a previous kernel?
[19:47] <NET||abuse> sobersabre, also, some weeks he goes to my partners mothers, who's a full time housewife, so he's not going to be one of those abandoned home alone pups.. i'm too much of a dog lover to alow that to happen :)

[19:49] <hsa2> sobersabre, so what you remember is not right
[19:49] <sobersabre> hsa2: what windowing manager are you using: metacity/afterstep/windowmaker?
[19:49] <martin2> i'ld be very glad if anyone could tell me why installing the generic-phc-kernel disabled the 'e' letter in the console. 'E' is working, and 'e' is working for root
[19:49] <hsa2> sobersabre, compiz is a windowmanager itself
[19:50] <abhi_nav> X-warrior, yes. using lockdown
[19:50] <soreau> hsa2: You might look into adding the window to the widget layer so you can bring up all the windows on the widget layer even if it's just one
[19:50] <deavid> sebsebseb: yes, it works again now... but it's strange because is the same kernel, but another package (maybe compiled with other options)
[19:50] <sobersabre> hsa2: ok. apt-cache show wmctrl
[19:50] <hsa2> soreau, oh, that may do the work, i'll try
[19:50] <NET||abuse> sebsebseb, ahh, ok :)
[19:50] <soreau> sobersabre: Yes, and it's still a compositing wm ;)
[19:51] <hilem> anyone having issues with monit on 10.04?

[19:53] <soreau> sobersabre: Well that is sort of what a compositing wm does.. compiz just does it best ;)
[19:53] <martin2> can't even copy the 'e' in the xterm.... and can't acess /usr/share/keymaps ...
[19:53] <sobersabre> Hawaiian_Eskimo: building commercial software usually has instructions. which ones are you using ?
[19:53] <martin2> -.-
[19:53] <sebsebseb> Hawaiian_Eskimo: uhmm why not just use Virtualbox instead?
[19:53] <bcurtiswx3> if someone asks "are you using X" whats an easy way to find out.. i.e. "are you using dconf"
[19:53] <sebsebseb> Hawaiian_Eskimo: Virtualbox is normally what gets recommended in here, when it comes to virtulization
[19:54] <zela> how come it take so long for the java client to start on Ubuntu10l04?
[19:54] <zela> 10.04*
[19:54] <Hawaiian_Eskimo> sobersabre: the ones on the site. is there a way of starting virtualbox automatically without a GUI?
[19:54] <sobersabre> Hawaiian_Eskimo: you're asking a lot of lmgtfy questions.
[19:54] <sebsebseb> Hawaiian_Eskimo: don't want a GUI uhmm  maybe your after KVM
[19:54] <BOSSs> Hi
[19:54] <sebsebseb> Hawaiian_Eskimo: also yeah I think there is a way to do Virtualbox without a GUI
[19:55] <sebsebseb> !kvm | Hawaiian_Eskimo
[19:55] <sobersabre> VB can be started without gui on linux  (Easier than on windows)
[19:55] <zela> sebsebseb, how come it takes java so long to start up on ubuntu10.04?
[19:55] <sobersabre> as well easy on mac, but mac VB has had a mem-leak for like a year....
[19:55] <Digital_rouge> hello all ne wproblem with firefox update anyone help?
[19:55] <sebsebseb> zela: don't know,  could just be your compputer
[19:55] <Mr_Sonoma> anyone know a good way to get the /chanserv (for example) command working with IRCD-hybrid and hybserv? I have the servers up and running happily but would like to get the /chanserv working instead of having to /msg chanserv
[19:55] <zela> k
[19:55] <sobersabre> zela: my java starts quickly. what times are you talking about ?
[19:56] <sebsebseb> !details | Digital_rouge
[19:56] <zela> sobersabre, mine takes like a little.
[19:56] <sobersabre> zela: I don't know that time unit "like a little".
[19:56] <Digital_rouge> well I go to youtube I got sound but no video and if I try to make full screen flash crashes
[19:56] <zela> sobersabre, like a min or so
[19:57] <sobersabre> zela: are you running java application or just java compiler or what ?
[19:57] <zela> sobersabre, like the java chat IRC
[19:57] <Digital_rouge> ok I am running newest version of ubuntu newest version of firefox 3.6.6 after the recent update to ff flash crashes but will play audio
[19:57] <clayg> I'm trying to remove a partition on a thumb drive with gparted but the option to delete is not highlighted, what am i doing wrong?
[19:57] <snarkster> got a friend trying to send me a file via irc, i can see his offereing but it fails to send.. anyone know what we are doing wrong?
[19:57] <sobersabre> zela: usually IRC java client is downloaded from the internet. so what slows it down is usually the downloading.
[19:58] <zela> k
[19:58] <sobersabre> also, why are you using java irc client?!
[19:58] <sobersabre> there are so many better options. like irssi.
[19:58] <treble> how do you map network drive on ubuntu
[19:58] <sobersabre> treble: you use "Places" entry in the top menu....
[19:58] <zela> sobersabre, I use Xchat, irssi isnt my taste
[19:59] <sobersabre> zela: Xchat is also workable with.
[19:59] <Digital_rouge> uborttu abd sebseseb did you get that?
[19:59] <sobersabre> but irssi is far more convenient.
[19:59] <zela> sobersabre, indeed
[19:59] <Jibadeeha> xchat is nice
[19:59] <zela> sobersabre, what do you mean?
[19:59] <Jibadeeha> irssi+screen is nice though
[19:59] <mattmacman> hey guys.
[19:59] <telephone> What is common value for "hdparm -B"?
[19:59] <sobersabre> Jibadeeha: it is THE way.
[20:00] <sobersabre> mattmacman: hey guy.
[20:00] <telephone> ...usual value...
[20:00] <X-warrior> Do you know if lockdown works with ubuntu server and console?
[20:00] <clayg> I'm trying to remove a partition on a thumb drive with gparted but the option to delete is not highlighted, what am i doing wrong?
[20:00] <Mr_Sonoma> clayg, do you still have the drive mounted?
[20:00] <sobersabre> clayg: are you sure you're running the gparted as administrative user ?
[20:01] <snarkster> yah file transfers in irc arent working for us.. anyone got a primer on howto do it again, only been 20 years since Ive used irc for filetransfer
[20:01] <clayg> sobersabre, running it from commandline with sudo in front
[20:01] <darkscrypt> so if i disable acpi, will that make my laptop likely to overheat
[20:01] <sobersabre> and you better umount the drive like Mr_Sonoma says!
[20:01] <clayg> Mr_Sonoma, i do
[20:01] <darkscrypt> does acpi help regulate temprature
[20:01] <Mr_Sonoma> thats usually my dumb mistake then its OH! YEA!
[20:01] <clayg> Mr_Sonoma, When I unmounted it seemed like gparted couldn't find it
[20:01] <sobersabre> darkscrypt: acpi allows you to control this via software - change modes of operation, etc.
[20:02] <Traveler6> thune3 i reinstalled every pakage calling nvidia but with same result
[20:02] <Mr_Sonoma> dont power it down (safely remove or how ever ubuntu says) but unmount
[20:02] <sobersabre> but temperature control, power, etc. are controlled by the hardware itself.
[20:02] <darkscrypt> so disabling it in the kernal bios, would this cause my laptop to be able to overheat
[20:02] <ilhuicamina> i have a bug with the go-home-applet, when i start my computer, everytime y open any application it send me back to the start page, anyone knows how can i repair this?
[20:02] <darkscrypt> i did it on my last laptop, and i started to overheat all the time soon after
[20:02] <sobersabre> darkscrypt: I don't think so.
[20:02] <Digital_rouge> I am running uuntu 10.04 I am using firefox 3.6.6 when I try to view a video on youtube I get sound but no video when I try to use any othe the controls the flash plug in crases
[20:02] <sebsebseb> Digital_rouge: oh right
[20:02] <mattmacman> So you guys are all Ubuntu users....
[20:03] <sebsebseb> !pm | Digital_rouge
[20:03] <clayg> I'm trying to remove a partition on a thumb drive with gparted but the option to delete is not highlighted, what am i doing wrong?
[20:03] <sebsebseb> !pm > Digital_rouge
[20:03] <darkscrypt> sobersabre, thanks
[20:04] <sobersabre> clayg: some drives have "read-only" switch. are you sure yours doesn't have it turned on ?
[20:04] <sebsebseb> Digital_rouge: altough I guess the pm was to get my attention
[20:04] <sebsebseb> Digital_rouge: seems quite a few people are having those kind of issues
[20:04] <Digital_rouge> yes it was
[20:04] <mattmacman> Well I have some problems trying to boot Ubuntu on my Mac
[20:04] <clayg> sobersabre, I dont know, how do I check that
[20:04] <Digital_rouge> and its hard to keep up with all the text in here
[20:04] <sobersabre> clayg: you take your eyes off the monitor, and look at the drive....
[20:04] <Mr_Sonoma> clayg, i have found the disk utility under SYSTEM > ADMINISTRATION fairly easy to use and effective
[20:05] <thune3> Traveler6: someone might have an answer. Since kernel upgrades within an ubuntu release are ususally minor, I would suggest reverting/booting to a kernel version that works.
[20:05] <clayg> sobersabre, sorry for my ignorance, i just never have seen a "read only" switch on a thumbdrive
[20:05] <sobersabre> if you see a small switch, it is it.
[20:05] <Digital_rouge> well was working fine till the update
[20:05] <sebsebseb> Digital_rouge: I had issues with Flash in Ubuntu myself,  the distro I am currently on, not Ubuntu, works quite well for Flash.  Anyway its worth trying another browser if your getting Flash issues in Ubuntu.
[20:05] <clayg> sobersabre, ok took my eyes off monitor and look, no switch -
[20:05] <Digital_rouge> sebsebseb I had them to when I started but everythign worked fine til the damn update
[20:05] <clayg> Mr_Sonoma, I will try that, tha nks
[20:05] <sebsebseb> Digital_rouge: Firefox and Flash and Ubuntu and yeah issues sometimes, but another browser instead, and Flash will probably work fine all or most of the time.
[20:05] <mattmacman> Does anybody know what I can do? I get the 10.10 start up....then I hear the chime. Then I get 2 items on the screen. No menu bar....
[20:06] <clayg> sobersabre, did you have a solutuion if the switch was not present or were you just curious?
[20:06] <sebsebseb> !10.10 | mattmacman
[20:06] <mattmacman> Thanks.
[20:06] <Digital_rouge> sebsebseb give suggestions for browser then
[20:06] <sebsebseb> mattmacman: np
[20:06] <mattmacman> How about 10.04
[20:06] <bcurtiswx3> sebsebseb: the VNC stuff seems wrong.. one case it says port 5500 the other 5900 ??
[20:06] <Mr_Sonoma> clayg, no problem. graphical is often easier although not as option filled as command line. but after making a few mistakes on command line if i can do it graphically I try as its more idiot proof LOL
[20:06] <clayg> Mr_Sonoma, I am in that utility but do not see partitions mentioned, ill look again
[20:07] <sebsebseb> bcurtiswx3: one is the server port, and the other is the viewer port, or whatever it was
[20:07] <sebsebseb> Digital_rouge: yeah
[20:07] <sobersabre> clayg: if the switch is present, you need to turn it off to be able to write.
[20:07] <clayg> sobersabre, it is not
[20:07] <sebsebseb> Digital_rouge: Konqueror is my favourite secondary browser, but thats a KDE app
[20:07] <sobersabre> ok.
[20:07] <darkscrypt> how do i get to the grub menu in ubuntu
[20:07] <sobersabre> so, is the drive mounted or not ?
[20:07] <darkscrypt> it skips it.
[20:07] <Mr_Sonoma> clayg, you have to click on the drive you want to work on in the column in the left
[20:07] <clayg> Mr_Sonoma, I see format, unmount, safe removal benchmark  - my only choices from what it looks like
[20:07] <sebsebseb> Digital_rouge: still can run it in Gnome, but it will want to put KDE stuff on.  not a problem as long as your partition isn't really stupidly sized.  Plus LInux distros are designed to have many apps installed without problems, unlike WIndows.
[20:07] <Mr_Sonoma> then all kinds of options come up
[20:07] <Digital_rouge> well do you know of anywher ei can download the old version of ff?
[20:07] <clayg> Mr_Sonoma, checknigs
[20:08] <sebsebseb> Digital_rouge: then theres Epiphany which is really the default browser for Gnome, and thats alright.  You know what Gnome is right?  and Galeon used to be the default for Gnome thats ok.
[20:08] <sobersabre> clayg: unmount first, then run gparted as root.
[20:08] <clayg> Mr_Sonoma, listed those options - didn't see any thing about paritions
[20:08] <sebsebseb> Digital_rouge: and there are some other browsers as well that aren't mentioned in this factoid.
[20:08] <clayg> sobersabre, will retry that
[20:08] <sebsebseb> !browsers | Digital_rouge
[20:09] <mattmacman> Does anybody know if there is a Mac OS X channel?
[20:09] <sobersabre> sebsebseb: the list doesn't show chromium or google chrome.
[20:09] <sobersabre> update it :)
[20:09] <clayg> sobersabre, having the same effect, unmounting first then sudo gparted does not list it and doesn't find it
[20:09] <Mr_Sonoma> clayg, hold on i'll upload a screen shot of what i'm talking about
[20:09] <sebsebseb> sobersabre: I can't not an op.  also I don't like chormeium or Chrome much anyway :)
[20:09] <sebsebseb> Firefox :)
[20:10] <Digital_rouge> ok well im kinda tryin to use the firefox I have a seconadry right now , im gonna try and fix the flash crash issue with the new update
[20:10] <Digital_rouge> good bye guys
[20:10] <clayg> Mr_Sonoma, thanks I'll grab one of what I'm looking at also where do you host pix?
[20:10] <sobersabre> clayg: there's "Refresh" or "Rescan" option in Gparted.
[20:10] <darkscrypt> how do i get to the grub menu in ubuntu
[20:10] <sebsebseb> Mr_Sonoma: ##mac and I think theres ##macos
[20:10] <clayg> sobersabre, yes did not find it after clicking it
[20:10] <sebsebseb> Mr_Sonoma: ##macosx I mean maybe not
[20:10] <sobersabre> clayg: can you simply switch the usb socket ?
[20:10] <sebsebseb> darkscrypt: hold down esc when the computer boots
[20:10] <darkscrypt> it wont go =( i dont understand this sucks.
[20:10] <sobersabre> maybe you have something gone wrong with it.
[20:11] <clayg> sobersabre, me no good with words, switch you mean put it in a different one?
[20:11] <darkscrypt> the computer fails to boot with acpi enabled
[20:11] <clayg> sorry, that switch word had me confused before thinking you meant a - switch
[20:11] <darkscrypt> i can boot live cd
[20:11] <darkscrypt> but not with acpi
[20:11] <sobersabre> switch means change to similar, but another. right ?
[20:11] <sobersabre> me no good with words 2.
[20:11] <clayg> sobersabre, can i accomplish that by plugging the usb  drive into a different usb port?
[20:12] <martin2> anyone caring 4 bugs in 2.6..32-23-generic-phc  ?
[20:12] <clayg> Mr_Sonoma, where do you host pix?
[20:12] <sobersabre> clayg: sounds what I said, but in your own tongue.
[20:12] <clayg> sobersabre, lemme give that a shot
[20:12] <sobersabre> don't shoot it!
[20:12] <Mr_Sonoma> just a sec i've got several accounts i gotta find one that's not full
[20:12] <Mr_Sonoma> lol
[20:12] <clayg> after wards i will unmount and sudo gparted?
[20:12] <sobersabre> just take it out, and put it into another usb port.
[20:13] <sobersabre> then run "refresh" or "rescan" option in the gparted(you don't have to kill or shoot it)
[20:13] <clayg> sobersabre, oh ok, after should i unmount it and run gparted as root?
[20:13] <X-warrior> if i move some files from /usr/bin to a new one like /usr/binPrivileged and in .profile I just add the /usr/binPrivileged to some users. (lets supposed that I did this with who file), so Just the users that have the /usr/binPrivileged can use this command?
[20:13] <psych787> I am a debian user thinking of defecting to ubunutu. First though, what version of KDE4 is in kubuntu?
[20:14] <clayg> sobersabre, no it seems to do the same thing
[20:14] <clayg> very strange
[20:14] <sobersabre> clayg: can you look at your system log ?
[20:14] <sobersabre> maybe your flash drive is not working well.
[20:14] <Prabs> hi i want to know how to mount iso files in gui mode plz guide me
[20:14] <sebsebseb> psych787: KDE 4.4
[20:14] <clayg> sobersabre, where is that located?
[20:15] <clayg> sobersabre, other functions work without a problem but I do have the type of luck where it is very possible
[20:15] <sobersabre> System->ADminstration->Log File Viewer.
[20:15] <Prabs> hi i want to know how to mount iso files in gui mode plz guide me
[20:15] <psych787> sebsebseb: Thanks.
[20:15] <sebsebseb> psych787: in 10.04
[20:15] <clayg> sobersabre, ok im in it
[20:15] <Mr_Sonoma> http://76.202.183.248/utility.png
[20:16] <sobersabre> clayg: do you happen to know which device file is your flash drive located at ?
[20:16] <Prabs> hi i want to know how to mount iso files in gui mode plz guide me
[20:16] <sebsebseb> Mr_Sonoma: your own web server?
[20:16] <sobersabre> (it's usually /dev/sd<a letter>
[20:16] <inspiron> when I post to mailing lists can I attach files if the output is too big?
[20:16] <aitd> Prabs: Right click and choose open with archive mounter, I believe
[20:16] <sobersabre> and sometimes <a number> in the end.)
[20:16] <clayg> sobersabre, i will check
[20:17] <Mr_Sonoma> yea, usually just share that with family, but couldnt find a account that wasnt full
[20:17] <clayg> sobersabre, looks like sbd1
[20:17] <sobersabre> you mean sdb1
[20:18] <sobersabre> well, choose debug log file, and look for the keyword "sdb1"
[20:19] <sobersabre> hm... now let me ask you a Q: did you try to do whatever you want, and got some kind of error, or does what you see not look exactly as you want it to ?
[20:19] <sobersabre> (I mean in GParted)
[20:22] <tomas-_> Hi,
[20:22] <tomas-_> I have a problem upgrading to karmic from jaunty
[20:23] <jbremer> Hello, I have a question... I'm trying to remove a piece of Spyware from my family's Windows computer, is there a Linux program that would be good for this? I tried Avast!, but that seems to only be for viruses.
[20:23] <tomas-_> when I do do-release-upgrade, it fails when installing initscripts
[20:23] <tomas-_> the error I get is update-rc.d: /etc/init.d/single: file does not exists
[20:23] <AhmedBH> hi, i have a issue with lucid, when ever i login with my password after that all i see is a error abotu nautlious or what ever that thing is called, and it says cant create folder and files i dont know what exactly so i hardly created another user account and there i can use it and works fine but i had encrypted the $HOME folder in previous account which now is not working how do i at least recover those files?
[20:23] <tomas-_> anybody know how to solve that?
[20:24] <rmorgan> i am trying to mount a smb share and its saying share is write protected mounting read only, cannot mount block device as read only
[20:24] <sobersabre> AhmedBH: is it possible you upgraded or reinstalled over old installation or /home folder or partition ?
[20:24] <Mr_Sonoma> hmmm wonder if he got it
[20:24] <sobersabre> Mr_Sonoma: who got what ?
[20:25] <Mr_Sonoma> clayg got his partition
[20:25] <treble> Anyone know how to get flash plugin for chrome on ubuntu?
[20:25] <sebsebseb> jbremer: uhmm
[20:25] <AhmedBH> sobersabre: No i did nothing like that its something with that nautilus like some kinda error or something i tried restarted it killed the process but no luck
[20:25] <sobersabre> AhmedBH: is it possible you did something inside that directory as root?
[20:26] <sebsebseb> jbremer: really when you get malicious programs installed into any OS, you should clean install  the OS to make sure that it is gone properly.  However  you should be able to delete the spyware using the Ubuntu Live CD, once the Windows partition is mounted.
[20:26] <sobersabre> or copied something from another user ?
[20:26] <AhmedBH> sobersabre:  let me think..what could that be well i guess i didnt done something wrong being on root
[20:26] <AhmedBH> sobersabre:   i just usually run update and thats it
[20:26] <sobersabre> AhmedBH: make sure all the files (and the home dir itself) belongs to the user...
[20:26] <sebsebseb> jbremer: another reason to clean install the OS after malware, is to make sure that no one malicious is using your computer
[20:26] <jbremer> sebsebseb: I've had success before using a LiveCD to remove a virus, just figured I'd give it a shot for the adware, too.
[20:26] <sobersabre> do you know how to do this ?
[20:27] <sobersabre> jbremer: did you get a virus on linux ?! cool!!!!
[20:27] <sobersabre> what virus was it ?
[20:27] <AhmedBH> sobersabre: yes they must be there but when i try to enter from another partation or user account i cant really access them
[20:27] <AhmedBH> sobersabre:  its encrypted i guess
[20:27] <jbremer> sobersabre: No, it's under Windows, I'm trying to use Linux to remove it. Sorry if I was indistinct.
[20:27] <sebsebseb> sobersabre: no they got Spyware on Windows
[20:27] <sobersabre> encryped?! hm.....
[20:28] <sobersabre> AhmedBH: so, who is the owner of the home folder of the user you cannot use ?
[20:29] <AhmedBH> its me but i had that folder $HOME encrypted when i installed lucid since on
[20:29] <sobersabre> AhmedBH: Ok, and when you are logging in, does the system ask you the $HOME password ?
[20:29] <jbremer> sebsebseb: I would usually advocate a clean install, but the proper owner isn't likely to go for that.
[20:30] <sebsebseb> jbremer: well if you explain the reason as to why, they may go for it
[20:30] <amereservant> Is there a way to change the netbook remix layout to how the desktop version is laid out?  or do I have to re-install it?
[20:30] <AhmedBH> sobersabre: just the login screen asks for the password i see nothing else no panels no icons but in (back ground the OS is completely running) i can even see the terminal and everything but only a wallpaper nothing more and errros on nautilos
[20:30] <sebsebseb> amereservant: theres an option that lets you have it like the desktop version, but I don't know how
[20:31] <rmorgan> i am trying to mount a smb share and its saying share is write protected mounting read only, cannot mount block device as read only
[20:31] <amereservant> sebsebseb, Ahhh.  I can't seem to find it anywhere, I've tried all kinds of different searches and no luck.
[20:31] <amereservant> I don't know if I'm searching for the wrong phrase or what.
[20:32] <psych787> How well does kubuntu support plasma? Does it include all the default widgets, does it support phonon for video widgets and other advanced stuff, etc?
[20:33] <sebsebseb> amereservant: ok well I can't exactly hep you, since as far as netbook 10.04 has gone for me, only a trying of the beta or whatever in a vm.
[20:33] <sebsebseb> amereservant: however someone did tell me on IRC, that there is some sort of way to have it like the desktop version
[20:34] <posixninja> does anyone know of a software method of forcing a usb 2.0 device into low speed or full speed mode?
[20:34] <buwar> holaa tengo probmas con firefox y youtube
[20:34] <ethola> do i need to remove the bottom panel if i like to use a dock like in macosx , is there any recommendations for docks ?
[20:34] <amereservant> sebsebseb, Alright, I'll do a little more searching for it and if I can't find it, I'll uninstall it and install Desktop.  You'd think it'd be an "easy-to-find" option since I'm sure many people may not like the different environment.
[20:34] <mneptok> ethola: AWN
[20:35] <mneptok> buwar: Ingles solamente, pf
[20:35] <mneptok> !es | buwar
[20:35] <ethola> mneptok : but do i get the osx dock interface and i do i need to remove the bottom panel , cause i dont know how to get it back if i want to
[20:37] <sobersabre> ethola: you can autohide it.
[20:37] <sobersabre> so it's still there to eat up your memory. and you're calm!
[20:38] <sebsebseb> amereservant: oh  the netbook edition is changing a lot for 10.10
[20:38] <sobersabre> actually I think AWN eats more mem/cpu than the regular gnome's panel.
[20:38] <ethola> sobersabre : ok so thats the default way , thx , but i still like to get the same dock as in osx ....
[20:38] <sebsebseb> amereservant: when it comes to looks and that,  whilst your looking up stuff, maybe you should look up Unity
[20:38] <sobersabre> ethola:  it's not complicated: buy a Mac.
[20:38] <Mr_Sonoma> is everyone having issues with update manager, i get errors with "failed to fetch" I can paste bin errors
[20:39] <lsmobrian> anyone ever get the problem where once you unlock the screensaver, it shows the desktop for maybe a second then goes to the unlock screen prompt again
[20:39] <sobersabre> lsmobrian: does the computer get to sleep ?
[20:39] <opij> lsmobrian: i have that problem too
[20:40] <lsmobrian> k, thats good to know i guess... no its not sleeping, just lock screen
[20:40] <sobersabre> I'm off guys
[20:40] <ethola> sebsebseb : yes but if it was so easy i would have bought a mac already :p .....but anyway i just want to have a recommendation for a dock panel or something similar :p
[20:40] <usacomputertec> what is the command to reconfigure the xorg.conf automatically
[20:40] <infid> are there any SQA tools, like Winrunner, for ubuntu?
[20:41] <aioobe> I get "Bus Error" when executing pdftk... anyone else with similar problems/solutions? (on karmic)
[20:41] <sebsebseb> ethola: ok you messaged me there by mistake, however I can help you when it comes to docks
[20:42] <Mr_Sonoma> is everyone having issues with update manager in lucid, i get errors with "failed to fetch" I can paste bin errors
[20:42] <uzi_> is it possible, the computer thinks that its resuming from standby mode when you cold boot?
[20:43] <mistermatt> hey guys I have some questions about setting up a dual boot
[20:43] <rg58sma> hello
[20:43] <ethola> sebsebseb : yes thanks ,  a dock which is not resource hungry or/and something thats monitor the system and shows on the desktop
[20:43] <rg58sma> i need help with jaunty and cinepaint
[20:43] <slidinghorn> !details | rg58sma
[20:43] <sebsebseb> ethola: Theres  AWN  avant window manager sure,  what mneptok  recommnended.  Apparantly cario dock is or was the best.  However the guy who runs this site http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk seems to love going on about docky,  docky can do this, docky can do that, this that and the other, basically according to that site.  Right Docky fan boy that runs that site.
[20:44] <rg58sma> ok
[20:44] <rg58sma> i installed ubuntu 8.10
[20:44] <mistermatt> I have an installation of windows 7, and I want to dual boot ubuntu alongside of it. I have gparted on a disk and I have about 200 gigs of non-windows space avaiable. If I want to dual boot do I just install ubuntu to that empty space and it will take care of the rest? or do I have to do something else
[20:44] <sebsebseb> rg58sma: oh why?  its end of life now since April 30th, no more security updates
[20:44] <sebsebseb> !8.10 | rg58sma
[20:44] <rg58sma> but i upgrade to 9.04 jaunty
[20:45] <rg58sma> and i wanna install cincepaint
[20:45] <Mr_Sonoma> mistermatt, no just install from the live cd. It would have handled the partitioning for you too but thats ok.
[20:45] <rg58sma> and i cant install from source
[20:45] <uzi_> is it possible, the computer thinks that its resuming from standby mode when you cold boot?
[20:45] <sebsebseb> ethola: also Mac OS X,  yes I know Macs look quite nice the hardware,  and the OS itself is ok, but the real proper Mac OS X advantages most of them you can get in a Linux distro :)  or  with FreeBSD which OS X is basically based on
[20:46] <Ebuntu> !help

[20:46] <ethola> sebsebseb : ok thanks i come back if theres more to ask :)

[20:50] <vitaly> hello
[20:50] <vitaly> ?
[20:50] <Spawn> Argh, Rhythmbox won't open up today for some reason... I tried a debug and got this... http://paste.ubuntu.com/459570/
[20:50] <Azarius> hello Alice32 can you explain "before, all was ok" it was a system fully installed?
[20:51] <sebsebseb> vitaly: yes hello
[20:51] <rg58sma> Ebuntu: no no, have errors when install
[20:51] <vitaly> hi
[20:51] <sebsebseb> vitaly: hi
[20:51] <Ebuntu> rg58sma, do you have all of the required librariees and such?
[20:51] <vitaly> is it possible to install ubuntu desktop on Ubuntu Server?
[20:52] <sebsebseb> vitaly: yes, but
[20:52] <sebsebseb> vitaly: not really meant to install it into the server edition, and can run servers on the desktop version anyway
[20:52] <mistermatt> I got a dual boot to work previously with vista and debian, but I really don't know what I'm doing.

[20:52] <Yuein> Hiya, is it possible using aptitude to list all packages without the 'A' flag?
 before mean for the last 6 months everything was ok i have win 7 and ubuntu 9.10 i had this problem before i forgot the command i used at that time it was something to do with scan and than it worked again
[20:53] <Spawn> Nevermind, found the reason... there was a process already running and failed to quit last night.
[20:53] <Andre_Gondim> the mirror in Brazil is out
[20:53] <Muzer> Yuein: aptitude search '.*' might work
[20:53] <Yuein> Muzer: What is .*?
[20:53] <Muzer> that's all packages in the repo, not all installed packages
[20:53] <Muzer> Yuein: regular expression
[20:53] <Muzer> . = any one character
[20:53] <Yuein> That will list all packages without A?
[20:53] <Muzer> * = any number of the preceeding character
[20:54] <Muzer> so .* = any number of any character
[20:54] <Muzer> OH
[20:54] <Muzer> sorry
[20:54] <Muzer> was being an idiot :P
[20:54] <Yuein> I want ALL installed packages without 'A'
[20:54] <FloodBot3> Muzer: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[20:54] <Yuein> :P
[20:54] <dreamy_> whats the best place to search for drivers?
[20:54] <sebsebseb> Alice32: were you doing an upgrade to 9.10?
[20:54] <mistermatt> hello
[20:54] <sebsebseb> dreamy_: drivers for what?
[20:54] <vitaly> sebsebseb: I keep getting "E: Couldn't find package ubuntu-desktop"
[20:54] <dreamy_> sebsebseb: its for a pc camera
[20:54] <sebsebseb> vitaly: uhmm
 nope
[20:54] <vitaly> do i have to add deb server info into sources.list manually?
[20:55] <vitaly> i've uncomented all the ones i have with the server install
[20:55] <Muzer> Yuein: aptitude search '.*' | grep -v '^i A ' | grep ^i
[20:55] <Ebuntu> rg58sma, is it possible that you are trying to install the wrong package? or does it work for amd64 and i386?
[20:55] <sebsebseb> Alice32: right why isn't your file system working? any idea?  I looked at the back log a bit
[20:55] <sebsebseb> vitaly: Why are you using the server edition?
[20:55] <Muzer> Yuein: then you can use cut to snip down the output if you need to
[20:55] <sebsebseb> dreamy_: uhmm
[20:55] <sebsebseb> dreamy_: you may have to do some resarch and configure it, if you can
[20:55] <vitaly> because all big boys are using server edition and i want to be a big boy too, except i also want to use XFCE

[20:56] <xubuntu> hey i was just wondering how to initialize a device that i installed with ndiswrapper .. its a usb wifi stick
[20:56] <sebsebseb> vitaly: big boys heh?  actsually business is more likely to be using , Debian, CentOS,  or Redhat Enterprise Linux, when it comes to servers.
[20:56] <vitaly> ok, well not that big, i guess
[20:56] <Yuein> Muzer: wow thats weird. things like adduser aren't automatically installed?

[20:57] <vitaly> http, ssh mainly but also some custom java stuff
[20:57] <peterkirn> How do you restore the default GNOME mouse cursor after installing the kde-desktop metapackage?
[20:57] <sebsebseb> !anybody | ad7daut7
[20:57] <Otacon22> Does exist something to change the voice under linux?
[20:57] <vitaly> which is why there is a need for x, kind of

[20:58] <sebsebseb> vitaly: I mean upgrading to a later version of Ubuntu when there is a reason to, no problem and such?
[20:58] <ad7daut7> CAN SOMEONE HELP ME!?
[20:58] <sebsebseb> vitaly: what I think you should do is install  Xubuntu since you said you wanted XFCE, and then run your servers in that
[20:58] <slidinghorn> !patience | ad7daut7
[20:59] <kyle_> OK, i just did a bobo. Deleted the admin group in user settings.  Now when I click advanced, it shakes when i enter password.
[20:59] <vitaly> hmm
[20:59] <vitaly> ok
[20:59] <Aethnen> I'm running Ubuntu 9.10 and I have no xorg.conf file. I'm running a MacBook4
[20:59] <slidinghorn> ad7daut7, what specific command(s) are giving you this error?
[20:59] <vitaly> sebsebseb: is there a list of features to compare of ubuntu server vs ubuntu desktop
[20:59] <vitaly> ?
[20:59] <kyle_> can't put password in anything for root
[20:59] <Aethnen> all of the things on line say to reconfigure the xorg file manually to make the mouse work
[20:59] <sebsebseb> vitaly: now if your going to do a proper server for business,  then sure server edition,  or Debian or CentOS,  or Redhat Enterprise LInux or something
[20:59] <ad7daut7> umm
[20:59] <ad7daut7> im trying to install a program
[20:59] <Aethnen> but when I create an xorg.conf file and stick the stuff in it it won't boot
[20:59] <sebsebseb> vitaly: for home use though,  doing servers is rather fine indeed in the desktop version
[20:59] <Ebuntu> ad7daut7, do you have all the dependencies satisfied?
[20:59] <Aethnen> probably because the xorg.conf file is incomplete
[21:00] <sebsebseb> !server | vitaly
[21:00] <ad7daut7> idk what that is lol
[21:00] <Aethnen> so if anyone knows what Ubuntu 9.10 uses instead of a xorg.conf file that would be great
[21:00] <slidinghorn> ad7daut7, well let's start here then...which application are you trying to install, and what is the exact command you're using to do so?
[21:00] <Aethnen> or if someone knows exactly what to paste in the entire xorg.conf file
[21:00] <ad7daut7> Invalid /etc/apt/sources.list file
[21:00] <ad7daut7> E:Type 'sudo' is not known on line 57 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list, E:The list of sources could not be read.
[21:00] <iceroot> Aethnen: its using auto-detect but you can create a xorg.conf, so the settings from that file + the rest from autodetect are used
[21:00] <ad7daut7> i am trying to install whine
[21:01] <sebsebseb> !wine | ad7daut7
[21:01] <ad7daut7> but its doing this with all sudo commands

[21:01] <iceroot> Aethnen: sudo apt-get install wine
[21:01] <tomasz> i have problem with wine

[21:01] <ad7daut7> theres something wrong
[21:01] <Aethnen> iceroot so how do I get the system to create an xorg.conf file on it's own
[21:01] <tomasz> but problem dont go
[21:01] <slidinghorn> ad7daut7, is the user you're logged in as included in the sudoers list?
[21:01] <oCean_> ad7daut7: stop using <enter> all the time
[21:01] <ad7daut7> i get this error when using sudo commands sudo apt-get install wine
[21:01] <Aethnen> I've tried several reconfigure commands
[21:02] <Ebuntu> tomasz, what do you mean 'problem dont go?
[21:02] <dcplaya_laptop> im trying to connect my ubuntu laptop to some shared drives on my windows 7 PC, I cant get access to my windows machine using ubuntu "network" under places. Anyone able to help me out?
[21:02] <slidinghorn> ad7daut7, wait!  don't paste it....go to http://paste.ubuntu.com
[21:02] <iceroot> Aethnen: the system is not creating it, as i said its using auto-detect. you have to create it by hand
[21:02] <tomasz> i can play normal on gta sa on windows but in linux i dont see menu i see boxes
[21:02] <ad7daut7> opps ok i get this error when using sudo commands E: Type 'sudo' is not known on line 57 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list
[21:02] <ad7daut7> E: The list of sources could not be read.
[21:02] <iceroot> ad7daut7: remove the line with sudo in that file
[21:02] <Aethnen> iceroot if I do it wrong it won't boot so how do I know what to put into the xorg.conf file?
[21:03] <ad7daut7> E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (13: Permission denied)
[21:03] <ad7daut7> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), are you root?
[21:03] <ad7daut7> i get that if i dont use sudo
[21:03] <iceroot> Aethnen: you can do it wrong, just x is not starting, so you have to delete/move the file so x can start again
[21:03] <tomasz> i have 945GM  graphics
[21:03] <oCean_> ad7daut7: stop pasting in this channel!
[21:03] <tomasz> Intel
[21:03] <Aethnen> iceroot exactly my point
[21:03] <tomasz> Ebuntu ?
[21:03] <iceroot> ad7daut7: cat /etc/apt/sources.list   to pastebin please
[21:03] <Ebuntu> tomasz, do you have all of the graphics drivers?
[21:03] <Aethnen> iceroot here is the thing.
[21:04] <kyle_> OK, i just did a bobo. Deleted the admin group in user settings.  Now when I click advanced, it shakes when i enter password.
[21:04] <Aethnen> iceroot if I create an xorg.conf file so my mouse works I have to reboot or log out so it will work
[21:04] <tomasz> Ebuntu i have only this what are on cd ubuntu 10.04
[21:04] <Aethnen> iceroot but the X is not configured so it won't start
[21:04] <slidinghorn> ad7daut7, we're going to try to help you, but let's lay down a couple quick rules...1. if you have something that's multiple lines, use http://paste.ubuntu.org.  2. don't repeat yourself quickly  3. don't use enter as punctuation...try to keep all questions & responses to one line :)
[21:04] <Aethnen> iceroot and I've noticed the recovery option does not have a autoreconfigure x option.
[21:04] <Aethnen> I've tried dpkg reconfigure commands
[21:04] <iceroot> Aethnen: the x-server is using auto-detect + xorg.conf  so i dont get what the problem is
[21:05] <luis_> e ai
[21:05] <Aethnen> iceroot the problem is the autodetect is not using the right driver for my mouse
[21:05] <MajorDeath|BT4> 'Sup
[21:05] <slidinghorn> ad7daut7, do me a favor...run this command and paste the contents of the file to http://paste.ubuntu.org -- gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[21:05] <Ebuntu> tomasz go to system->administration->hardware drivers
[21:05] <Aethnen> iceroot and if I paste the right stuff in xorg.conf it won't boot
[21:05] <iceroot> Aethnen: then put that info into xorg.conf
[21:05] <ad7daut7> ok sorry
[21:05] <Aethnen> iceroot I tried that
[21:05] <iceroot> Aethnen: then you are using the wrong syntax
[21:05] <oCean_> !br | luis_
[21:06] <iceroot> Aethnen: can you paste the xorg.conf you created? + the error x is ginving?
[21:06] <Aethnen> iceroot read this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=493758

[21:06] <Aethnen> it's obviously a video problem

[21:09] <Medjai> I was wondering how I could get integrated webcam to work on ubuntu 10.04
[21:09] <Aethnen> iceroot what really bakes my bacon is the Ubuntu people did something in the latest kernel update and now my main computer won't work with NVIDIA-Settings to save the xorg.conf because it can't parse it because it's not there. UBUNTU just leave things alone. :||
[21:09] <MajorDeath|BT4> @erUSUL, great thankyou.
[21:09] <Medjai> I'm having trouble accessing it
[21:09] <kyle_> OK, i just did a bobo. Deleted the admin group in user settings.  Now when I click advanced, it shakes when i enter password.
[21:09] <ad7daut7> http://paste.ubuntu.com/459577/
[21:09] <ad7daut7> ther it is
[21:09] <erUSUL> kyle_: add it again from recovery console. then add your user to it.
[21:09] <ad7daut7> im pretty sure i screwd up my source.list or w,e when trying to install a stupid docl
[21:10] <Aethnen> iceroot it's like every time Ubuntu updates anything they change something about how the hole Linux system works. Last time it was the usplash xsplash thing

[21:10] <janjiss> Hello, can somone help me with open content project? It will take few minutes. PM me if interested. Thanks
[21:10] <Aethnen> iceroot I wish Canotical would just let the community run things
[21:10] <wombatman> horrible plan
[21:10] <iceroot> Aethnen: again, post your xorg.conf + the error from sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart   its hard to guess the error
[21:10] <hellothere> Hey guys, can i get infected with malware (virus, trojan, worm, etc) if i run a .exe app under wine?
[21:11] <tomasz> everything else work ok so i think i have some driver to graphics hmm
[21:11] <jpds> Aethnen: You know that xsplash is from Redhat?
[21:11] <oCean_> ad7daut7: well, as you can see the lines 57-67 are lines that should not be there
[21:11] <iceroot> hellothere: some viruses-trojansa are working inside the wine-environment but dont affect the linux-system
[21:11] <ad7daut7> how do i take them out? and save it cause it wont let me save it
[21:11] <Aethnen> iceroot aain, there is no error, no xorg.conf just white lines that appear
[21:11] <Aethnen> iceroot the link I sent you has the xorg.conf
[21:11] <hellothere> iceroot, so im basically safe?
[21:11] <Aethnen> iceroot because I used the instructions there to paste only what was there into the blank xorg.conf
[21:12] <hardex> How can I make an image of scratched CD? It gives buffer I/O errors, and I want to make image of what is readable to try recovering it later

[21:12] <iceroot> hellothere: dont start every exe you got is a good start but its not affecting the linux-system
[21:12] <oCean_> ad7daut7: you have to edit it with correct privileges: gksu gedit /etc/apt/sources.list

[21:14] <bsmith093> janjiss whats the problem
[21:14] <Aethnen> iceroot so where is a new post?
[21:14] <Aethnen> iceroot there isn't one
[21:14] <ad7daut7> TY ALL :) PROBLEM SOLVED
[21:14] <iceroot> Aethnen: i dont use mac, so i dont know :)
[21:14] <janjiss> bsmith093: Hi ,there is no problem, just need little help, thats all :)
[21:15] <wombatman> hellothere: probably not much reason to run a browser in wine unless you use ie for testing purposes as a web developer but then if it's your content hopefully you aren't intentionally trying to infect yourself
[21:15] <Aethnen> iceroot neither do I. I'm doing this for a friend.
[21:15] <bsmith093> with what
[21:15] <funkyHat> kyle_: what did you actually do, did you delete the admin group, or remove yourself from that group?
[21:15] <slidinghorn> ad7daut7, ok...for future reference, it should look like this now: http://paste.ubuntu.com/459578/
[21:15] <Aethnen> iceroot who isn't too impressed with Linux because of this mouse problem
[21:15] <iceroot> !info xserver-xorg-input-synaptics
[21:15] <Aethnen> iceroot she constantly cusses out her computer
[21:15] <tomasz> i have somethin this git://anongit.freedesktop.org/git/mesa/mesa
[21:15] <hellothere> io, thanks. how could it afect my home directory? i mean a keylogger wouldnt work right?
[21:15] <tomasz> but dont work
[21:15] <Bragex9> I can only share folders when I run nautilus as root. How can I change that? I want to share folders directly from nautilus, but the option is not there when I am not root.
[21:15] <kyle_> funkyhat: went to User settings. Clicked Manage groups and deleted 2nd down, Admin I think.
[21:16] <funkyHat> kyle_: well done!ok, what's your username?
[21:16] <wombatman> hellothere: I also can't see much reason for running untrusted apps in wine when such great software exists for native linux/ubuntu
[21:16] <kyle_> thought it was relevent to selected user !
[21:16] <iceroot> Aethnen: i am not sure if you have to put some string about auto in the xorg, so tell xorg that the rest is using autodetect
[21:16] <kyle_> username is kyle
[21:16] <bsmith093> is there a way to md5sum recursively ~12000+ files to check for duplicates also check by names
[21:16] <iceroot> Aethnen: if i remeber correctly there was something like that but dont get it at the moment
[21:17] <io> hellothere: That is why I said 'could' - there are numerous results on Google explaining the possibilities of that happening on Wine, read something like http://www.linux.com/archive/articles/42031.
[21:17] <Aethnen> iceroot ok. well that confuses me a little
[21:17] <h00k> bsmith093: you could use bash scripting to do that, check out #bash and see if anyone would be willing to help you
[21:17] <kyle_> FunkyHat: Usernme is kyle
[21:17] <pushpop> Anyone know any software that orgainizes your movie collection, renaming movie folder ect ect?
[21:17] <bsmith093> thanks h00k
[21:17] <mtellez> Hi, I'm upgrade from 9.10 to 10.4 and my dvd burner stop working. If I check the boot logs I see that my burner is sr0, but when I insert a disk nothings happend, so I try to mount manually with: sudo -t iso9660 mount /dev/sr0 /media/cdrom but I get this: umount: /dev/sr0: dispositivo desconocido, any help?
[21:17] <h00k> bsmith093: good luck. Although, I highly doubt you're going to run into md5sum collisions
[21:18] <rjb> does anyone know how to get 10.04 working with a logitech bluetooth keyboard and mouse?
[21:18] <janjiss> bsmith093: It will sound ridiculous, but i want somone to rewiew my english, I want to know that i speek clearly. Please take few mins here http://openathena.org/node/15
[21:18] <kyle_> p.s I can't belive it would allow a change like this with sudo password.
[21:18] <tomasz> http://intellinuxgraphics.org/download.html
[21:18] <funkyHat> kyle_: ok, in your live CD, can you open the filesystem that's root on your actual system, and then open the file etc/group
[21:18] <sebsebseb> mtellez: sometimes hardware support brakes on upgrades
[21:18] <tomasz> how open this ebuntu ?
[21:18] <Ebuntu> kyle_ sudo can let you do about anything
[21:18] <tomasz> if is git://
[21:18] <h00k> janjiss: this isn't the place for something like that, you could bring it up in #ubuntu-offtopic, but this channel is for Ubuntu support only
[21:19] <kyle_> ebuntu: I didn't login as root
[21:19] <Aethnen> iceroot "The day the community died" (when canotical took over)
[21:19] <funkyHat> kyle_: sudo is "do this as root"
[21:19] <Ebuntu> ninja'd
[21:19] <iceroot> Andre_Gondim: yeah, take that to offtopic and not on the support-channel
[21:19] <kyle_> funkyhat: OK, then
[21:19] <Ebuntu> :P
[21:19] <funkyHat> kyle_: you typed in your password in the box that said "you need to authenticate to modify the system configuration"
[21:19] <janjiss> h00k: Sorry, didn't know, Thanks
[21:19] <spvensko> hi, will using the command 'ulimit -c unlimited' set the highest possible values for the ulimit paramters?
[21:19] <iceroot> Andre_Gondim: sorry wrong nick
[21:20] <funkyHat> kyle_: you have a point though, it's not a very well designed interface... it does look like it could be related to the user you clicked on
[21:20] <Andre_Gondim> ok
[21:20] <funkyHat> kyle_: ok, in that file can you search for the number 115?
[21:20] <mtellez> sebsebseb, I google a bit and find many people with the same problem, but witout answer,  what should I do? kernel downgrade perhaps?
[21:21] <ShapeShifter499> *REPOST* I'm trying to back up my netbook to my laptop, ubuntu to windows, via ssh but on the windows side it keeps stopping after a while to ask for my pass again, how do I stop that from happening?
[21:21] <sebsebseb> mtellez: no
[21:21] <sebsebseb> mtellez: not kernel downgrade,  Ubuntu version downgrade with a clean install back to 9.10 yes maybe
[21:21] <sebsebseb> mtellez: and anyway 9.10 is better than 10.04 in quite a few ways really
[21:21] <tomasz> ebuntu how check what a graphicsa i have ?
[21:21] <tomasz> in linux
[21:21] <tomasz> what drivers
[21:21] <kyle_> funkyhat: I'm sure I didn't type my password in to delete the admin group. I'll have to try again in my VM.  but this change was live :(..  What do I do once the groups file is open.  Do you have the default group settings or something?
[21:22] <kyle_> funkyhat: soz 1 sec didn't see comment
[21:22] <h00k> !tab | kyle_, this will save you from having to type nicknames
[21:22] <funkyHat> kyle_: you will have unlocked the user settings app at some point before that then, or perhaps another system settings dialogue
[21:22] <rjb> YOU KNOW WHAT UBUNTU SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THANKS FOR ALL THE WONDERFUL HELP    HOPE YOU LIKE MY SARCASAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[21:22] <firekraag> Bazinga
[21:23] <Ebuntu> tomasz, to be honest, i have no idea how to see what drivers you have installed
[21:23] <Ebuntu> :/
[21:23] <ShapeShifter499> xD
[21:23] <funkyHat> kyle_: don't worry if you don't find it, in fact I'm kind of hoping you don't find it ;)
[21:23] <tomasz> oki
[21:23] <mtellez> sebsebseb, ok, thanks for the help :-)
[21:23] <ifanchoo> what is the best distro for a 2gb persistant linux
[21:23] <Ebuntu> can some else here help tomasz out?
[21:24] <Oer> !resetpanels
[21:24] <kyle_> funkyhat: OK, but i need to change to my liveCD before I can continue.  What do I do if it's missing?
[21:25] <slidinghorn> ifanchoo, that's a little off topic for this channel, but it all depends on what you want to do with it.  What's best for one person could be completely useless to another.  I'd check out the bestbot in #ubuntu-bots and do some researching on http://www.distrowatch.com :)
[21:25] <ime3th0> mouse movement is super fast under ubuntu remix, any reasons why?
[21:25] <funkyHat> kyle_: that's the (I think) standard group number for admin, I just need you to check there isn't another group with number 115 before you recreate it
[21:26] <starscream> hey can anyone direct me on installing programs for ubuntu? having trouble getting any downloaded apps (google earth) to work.
[21:26] <kyle_> funkyhat: i'm rebooting into liveCD now, see you on the other side.
[21:26] <twoten> tomasz: in aterminal type lspci | grep VGA
[21:26] <ifanchoo> i like the mint distro but is way too big for a pendrive
[21:26] <twoten> that will tell you your hardware
[21:26] <ifanchoo> at least for a 2gb
[21:26] <tomasz> oki thx
[21:26] <sebsebseb> mtellez: seriosuly
[21:26] <ShapeShifter499> firefox crashed D=
[21:26] <sebsebseb> mtellez: nothing wrong with clean installing and putting 9.10 back on, and its still supported untill the end of April next year.  Newer is not always better!
[21:27] <ShapeShifter499> *REPOST* I'm trying to back up my netbook to my laptop, ubuntu to windows, via ssh but on the windows side it keeps stopping after a while to ask for my pass again, how do I stop that from happening?
[21:27] <slidinghorn> if you're looking for something you can run off a pendrive, you might want to take a look at something like damn small linux.  i find some good comparisons usually by googling something like "damn small linux vs" and seeing what folks compare it to
[21:27] <slidinghorn> ifanchoo, ^^
[21:27] <tomasz> i write but nothing in result show
[21:27] <Ebuntu> i put ubuntu 10.04 lts on my pendrive
[21:28] <slidinghorn> !usb > ifanchu
[21:28] <tomasz> twoten dont write anything
[21:28] <slidinghorn> ifanchoo, see this too:
[21:28] <tomasz> in result
[21:28] <slidinghorn> !usb > ifanchoo
[21:28] <twoten> tomasz: try just lspci
[21:29] <mtellez> sebsebseb, thanks again, my backup's are still fresh so I'll follow you advice ;-)
[21:29] <tomasz> twoten oh now see all drivers and vga too
[21:29] <tomasz> its corret my graphic
[21:30] <funkyHat> ShapeShifter499: use an ssh key and pagent? (assuming windows is the client)
[21:30] <sebsebseb> mtellez: also whilst I am giving out advice, heres some good advice,  before using an ISO check it :)
[21:30] <sebsebseb> !md5sum
[21:30] <sebsebseb> !hashes
[21:30] <mkquist> ifanchoo: ubuntu only needs 1 gig according to the usb creator help file
[21:30] <tomasz> its rev 03 but i dont know its newest
[21:30] <Charley1> can someone please help me get ubuntu installed? ive installed it plenty of times but it wont recognize my sata drives now and when i install from windows it doesnt boot
[21:30] <Ebuntu> tomasz, to see if 3d is working at all on your computer you can type in glxgears in a terminal window.
[21:30] <twoten> tomasz: that's your hardware - now look under System>Administration>Hardware Drivers
[21:31] <ShapeShifter499> funkyHat: uh...
[21:31] <tomasz> ebuntu glsgears its work ok i see gears how works
[21:31] <Ebuntu> then you have opengl installed correctly, so thats not the problem
[21:31] <tomasz> towten in harders driver i see only modem drivers
[21:32] <funkyHat> ShapeShifter499: you can use puttygen to generate an ssh key, export the public key, put it in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys on the server, then you can login without a password
[21:32] <mtellez> sebsebseb, a wise advice by the way lol
[21:32] <kyle_> funkyhat: in liveCD
[21:32] <ifanchoo> mkquist: ubuntu needs 1gb but is this include some updates
[21:32] <funkyHat> kyle_: hi!
[21:32] <sebsebseb> mtellez: you already knew about it then?
[21:32] <Charley1> can someone please help me get ubuntu installed? ive installed it plenty of times but it wont recognize my sata drives now and when i install from windows it doesnt boot
[21:32] <twoten> tomasz: you have to load the driver that matches your hardware
[21:32] <Yuein> hi is php, python, and perl installed by default on ubuntu?
[21:32] <sebsebseb> Charley1: maybe a bad CD, also not really the best idea to use the Wubi windows Ubuntu installer
[21:32] <kyle_> pulse:x:115:
[21:32] <joxer> hi
[21:32] <mkquist> ifanchoo: good point... prob not
[21:32] <Jordan_U> Charley1: Try the "nomdraid" option in the LiveCD boot menu.
[21:32] <nimbiotics> which channel for ooo Database? TIA!
[21:32] <ShapeShifter499> funkyHat: this is copying files from my ubuntu netbook to my windows laptop
[21:33] <joxer> i have a 3g key huawei e1750c
[21:33] <Charley1> im on live cd right now and i did the disk check from the cd
[21:33] <funkyHat> ShapeShifter499: you said via ssh
[21:33] <joxer> anyone know how to use it?
[21:33] <sebsebseb> Charley1: right, but you didn't check your ISO I assume?
[21:33] <joxer> i try the way used for the e1750
[21:33] <Charley1> ive tried 3 cds they all do the same thing
[21:33] <Charley1> yes
[21:33] <mkquist> Charley1: can you 'see' the ubuntu install on the hard drive?
[21:33] <Charley1> ive downloaded it 3 times
[21:33] <sebsebseb> Charley1: yes to not checking the ISO?
[21:33] <mkquist> Charley1: that you installed...
[21:33] <joxer> anyone? :(
[21:33] <ShapeShifter499> funkyHat: nvm
[21:33] <Ebuntu> joxer, what is the problem
[21:33] <kyle_> funkyhat: I have one match for 115 (pulse.X.115.)
[21:33] <joxer> Ebuntu ppd die by the modem
[21:34] <tomasz> i see only modem software its driver owner ? or some like this i have polish ubuntu
[21:34] <ShapeShifter499> funkyHat: I'm getting help now on ##linux now
[21:34] <Charley1> i saw it when i did wubi i want to just wipe windows and put only ubuntu
[21:34] <guntbert> nimbiotics: #openoffice.org
[21:34] <joxer> it exits with the error 15 and in the man pages it said that the modem hang up the connection
[21:34] <nimbiotics> guntbert: Thanks!
[21:34] <sebsebseb> Charley1: ok this probably isn't your problem, but  if you still have the ISO good idea to check that it is good
[21:34] <Ebuntu> joxer, sorry but i know nothing about modems and the like
[21:34] <sebsebseb> !md5sum | Charley1
[21:34] <sebsebseb> !hashes
[21:34] <joxer> k Ebuntu
[21:34] <mkquist> Charley1: are you sure about removing windows?
[21:34] <funkyHat> kyle_: ok, in that case we'll just use addgroup, will be simpler. What's the path to your root fs? (it'll be something like /media/blahblahblah
[21:34] <grumete> How do I change my login-screen, thank you.
[21:34] <mtellez> sebsebseb, yes, but to be honest, I forget to follow that one, I think it should be a morphy's law ;-)
[21:34] <tomasz> its window 'if computer can work ok , system use a drivers owner
[21:35] <sebsebseb> mtellez: I think the Ubuntu website should make it clear to people that they should check the ISO before using
[21:35] <tomasz> anf is only modem driver , twoten
[21:35] <tomasz> and
[21:35] <Charley1> ya ive used ubuntu before i dont mind getting rid of it i can install it on a differant drive
[21:35] <Gorlist> evening, I want to secure /dev/shm by setting it to "nosuid,noexec", but it doesn't appear in my fstab file like the online guides suggest?
[21:35] <ifanchoo> mkquist: all the distros are from a 700 mb cd , but mint for exampl is around 3.2 gb after updating it
[21:35] <Charley1> i just want to get ubuntu working on my main drive
[21:35] <twoten> tomasz: what's your vga hardware?
[21:35] <sebsebseb> Charley1: yes it might be worth trying to install to a differnet drive
[21:36] <tomasz> intel 945GM
[21:36] <Charley1> ive tried a 2 external drives and 1 internal drive alredy
[21:36] <kyle_> funkyhat: can I pm you?  + it's a long code...
[21:36] <mkquist> Charley1: why not just install dual boot then, if you just gonna try to reinstall it later?
[21:36] <sebsebseb> !pastebin | kyle_
[21:36] <tomasz> maby gta sa dont work in linux on this ?
[21:36] <Ebuntu> tomasz is it on the supported list?
[21:36] <funkyHat> kyle_: it shouldn't be more than a single line, it won't be a problem pasting it in here
[21:36] <Charley1> ive been trying to dual boot but it wont show my hard drive under the list
[21:36] <twoten> tomasz: sounds like a motherboard vga
[21:37] <Jordan_U> Charley1: Have you tried the "nodmraid" boot option yet?
[21:37] <funkyHat> s/shouldn't/can't/
[21:37] <tomasz> yes integer graphics
[21:37] <sandking> hi
[21:37] <Charley1> no i didnt know about that
[21:37] <tomasz> i dont know is support heh
[21:37] <Charley1> what does that change?
[21:37] <tomasz> on windows work heh
[21:37] <Ebuntu> tomasz hmm lett me look it up
[21:37] <sandking> anyone knows if there's a recipe manager for ubuntu that would work with some online dbs?
[21:37] <kyle_> this? /media/3d8353d8-0f39-4bce-9b27-3b0f32d90e36
[21:37] <coz_> sandking,  yeah hold on
[21:38] <hiexpo> hmm
[21:38] <tomasz> oki
[21:38] <twoten> tomasz: does your motherboard have a free slot? do you have $20? you might have to get a real video card ...
[21:38] <sandking> coz_: now i installed gourmet, anymeal and krecipes
[21:38] <coz_> sandking,  ah ok yeah      gourmet is the one I was going to suggest
[21:38] <Jordan_U> Charley1: It disables detection of fake raid, if the installer thinks that you're using fake raid that it doesn't understand then it will refuse to install to the drive, because if it actually were fake raid that could destroy the data currently in the array.
[21:38] <funkyHat> kyle_: ya. Ok, in a terminal, type this: sudo mount --bind /dev /media/3d8353d8-0f39-4bce-9b27-3b0f32d90e36/dev && sudo mount --bind /proc /media/3d8353d8-0f39-4bce-9b27-3b0f32d90e36/proc && chroot /media/3d8353d8-0f39-4bce-9b27-3b0f32d90e36
[21:39] <funkyHat> kyle_: er, that should be sudo chroot in that last command there
[21:39] <tomasz> i have notebook HP and i think i dont have slot to graphics
[21:39] <Charley1> ok ill try that and hopefully when i come back it will be on ubuntu installed ;)
[21:39] <Loshki> sandking: the *only* recipe manager I see on google is http://linuxappfinder.com/package/gourmet. Dunno if it fits your requirements...
[21:40] <xsaiddx> helllo
[21:40] <sandking> Loshki: well, synaptics gave me also the one i mentioned. well - i got to test them :]
[21:40] <Ebuntu> tomasz, in http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=2599 it says that it worked for them
[21:40] <burt_> how do I install xorg.config in 10.04?
[21:41] <tomasz> wine is the some with winehq ?
[21:41] <kyle_> funkyhat: so 1st > sudo mount --bind  /dev /media/3d8353d8-0f39-4bce-9b27-3b0f32d90e36/dev && sudo  mount --bind /proc
[21:41] <Ebuntu> wine hq is wines website
[21:41] <Oer> !uuid
[21:42] <funkyHat> kyle_: here's the corrected one, you can just copy everything after this colon: sudo mount --bind /dev /media/3d8353d8-0f39-4bce-9b27-3b0f32d90e36/dev && sudo mount --bind /proc /media/3d8353d8-0f39-4bce-9b27-3b0f32d90e36/proc && sudo chroot /media/3d8353d8-0f39-4bce-9b27-3b0f32d90e36

[21:50] <gunther44> how can i check if mod_rewrite is working? i've tried a simple rewriterule .* http://www.google.com but nothing is redirecting#
[21:50] <kyle_> funkyhat: when I umount, it shows usage table
[21:50] <tomasz> oki
[21:50] <Ebuntu> tomasz brb
[21:50] <DarkStar1> Hi everyone. I have a wireless problem in KDE. everytime I try to connect it comes up with the error Message "Bad Password" but the same password connects in windows just fine
[21:51] <tomasz> oki i wait
[21:51] <kyle_> i have an icon on the desktop for my HDD.
[21:51] <funkyHat> kyle_: can you pastebin all of the content of the terminal window so far?
[21:51] <Slart> DarkStar1: try to check if you're using the same security options.. ie WPA, WEP etc.. perhaps ubuntu is trying to use the wrong security mechanism
[21:51] <gunther44> do i have to enable htaccess files in apache2?
[21:52] <yuer> Is 32bit or 64bit better?
[21:52] <DarkStar1> Slart: We've tried everything
[21:52] <DarkStar1> Slart: We even tried changing the drivers
[21:52] <johnwedd> I need some help with an issue with my laptop's primary LCD screen
[21:52] <kyle_> funkyhat, no. I just closed it, i'm going to reboot. sorry for the mess.. i'll be right back.. Sorry !!!!
[21:52] <Slart> yuer: 64bit is slightly faster but your cpu must be able to handle it.. if you have more than 3 GB memory I would recommend 64bit.. otherwise 32bit
[21:52] <erUSUL> yuer: 64 bit if you can
[21:52] <burt_> sebsebseb:  okay thank you I will check these out  thanks.
[21:53] <funkyHat> kyle_: heh, ok. See you soon
[21:53] <Slart> yuer: besides.. 64bit is the future =)
[21:53] <yuer> erUSUL: so that is amd64 right? or i386?
[21:53] <johnwedd> I need some help with an issue with my laptop's primary LCD screen
[21:53] <erUSUL> yuer: amd64 yes
[21:53] <DarkStar1> anyone have a clue as to why this could be?
[21:53] <yuer> erUSUL: i have 2gb memory
[21:53] <Slart> DarkStar1: well.. can't really help you any further than that.. if it finds wireless networks the driver ought to be fine.. but I'm not wi-fi expert
[21:53] <yuer> that ok?
[21:53] <DarkStar1> Slart: Ok thanks
[21:54] <erUSUL> yuer: yes; do not see why not :)
[21:54] <yuer> thanks!
[21:54] <DarkStar1> Can anyone else provide a clue as to why the WPA password is failing in Ubuntu?
[21:54] <acke-> Hey I want to setup a quick backup system on my GFs ubuntu laptop, if I do rsync every 15:th minute, would that be to often? how often could I run rsync?
[21:54] <HeyJoe> ola a todos
[21:54] <yuer> erUSUL: i broke my system, is there anyway to retrieve a gnupg key so i dont have to make a new one? that's all i need... no PAM module found??
[21:54] <Slart> acke-: have a look at Backintime.. it does something like that.. but with a nice gui
[21:54] <owl-ven> Cual es el canal ubuntu español?
[21:55] <slidinghorn> !es
[21:55] <johnwedd> I need some help with an issue with my laptop's primary LCD screen, i run ubuntu 64bit 10.05 LTS on a Dell inspiron 1501
[21:55] <owl-ven> Thanks...
[21:55] <Slart> acke-: and if you ask me.. yes.. 15 minutes is too often.. I would go with once every 3rd or 6th hour for a home system.. even that would be pretty ambitious
[21:55] <erUSUL> yuer: mount the hard disk from a livecd copy ~/.gnupg/ dir over ( or all your home if you like/can )
[21:55] <Ebuntu> tomasz do you have the latest mesa opengl stuff installed
[21:56] <tomasz> i have some mesa installed form ubuntu centrum software
[21:56] <cannonfodder> hey you guys....is there someway to view file permissions...like in my www directory, i want to have all the file permissions show up next to the file name...however, i want them in number format   for example   ...user group world read write execute for all  for a file called hello.sh   would look like   (777) hello.sh
[21:57] <yuer> erUSUL: this is a remote server :(
[21:57] <Slart> cannonfodder: view menu, visible columns, octal permissions
[21:57] <acke-> Slart: ooh, okay, thanks alot!!
[21:57] <muni_> acovirg: how to insatll 64 bit
[21:57] <cannonfodder> thanks
[21:57] <slidinghorn> cannonfodder, ls -ln
[21:57] <Slart> acke-: you're welcome
[21:57] <cannonfodder> ls -ln is nice but its not in number form
[21:58] <slidinghorn> cannonfodder, oh sorry missed the number format thing
[21:58] <cannonfodder> any way to show it in octals
[21:58] <erUSUL> yuer: :/ dunno; i guess is ssh what fails? maybe they have an idea in #openssh or in #ubuntu-server ?
[21:58] <muni_> acke-: how to install 64 bit using 32 bit
[21:58] <cannonfodder> Slart   when u say go to view menu, are you talking about in the terminal?
[21:58] <Slart> cannonfodder: nope, in nautilus.. the file explorer
[21:58] <tomasz> but i dont know it is good
[21:58] <cannonfodder> um
[21:59] <cannonfodder> i use terminal for file browsing, anyway to show it in there?
[21:59] <kyle_> funkyhat: OK, back
[21:59] <Ebuntu> tomasz can your computer handle the game?
[21:59] <tomasz> its some deb file with mesa ?
[21:59] <johnwedd> I need some help with an issue with my laptop's primary LCD screen, i run ubuntu 64bit 10.05 LTS on a Dell inspiron 1501
[21:59] <tomasz> handle ?
[21:59] <tomasz> the game work on windows
[21:59] <acke-> muni_: ?
[21:59] <aj00200> johnwedd: you should specify exactly what the issue is
[21:59] <slidinghorn> cannonfodder, check this out...it's a bit verbose, but apparently works http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/linux-newbie/21722-command-shows-me-permissions-file-octal.html
[22:00] <cannonfodder> k
[22:00] <tomasz> on linux run but dont se textures in menu
[22:00] <Slart> cannonfodder: I don't see anything in "man ls".. perhaps there is a trick to it.. but I don't know it =/
[22:00] <cannonfodder> ya i also checked
[22:00] <tomasz> and crash after
[22:00] <cannonfodder> didnt find
[22:00] <guntbert> cannonfodder: stat * | egrep "File:|Access: \("
[22:00] <tomasz> i copy crack too
[22:00] <Ebuntu> it *should* be working, but i dont have an answer as in why
[22:01] <Ebuntu> wait what
[22:01] <kyle_> funkyhat: Plz say your still here :(
[22:01] <funkyHat> kyle_: hello!
[22:01] <fuzzygroove> hey guys
[22:01] <tomasz> ?
[22:01] <ilze> kirils
[22:01] <kyle_> funkyhat: thank god..
[22:01] <cannonfodder> ok seriously  guntbert  you gotta send me a link on this pipe command lol
[22:01] <cannonfodder> i still have no idea how it works
[22:01] <Ebuntu> are you useing a pirated version tomasz?
[22:01] <cannonfodder> but that worked
[22:01] <tomasz> oh oki
[22:01] <funkyHat> kyle_: ok try this again: sudo mount --bind /dev /media/3d8353d8-0f39-4bce-9b27-3b0f32d90e36/dev && sudo mount --bind /proc /media/3d8353d8-0f39-4bce-9b27-3b0f32d90e36/proc && sudo chroot /media/3d8353d8-0f39-4bce-9b27-3b0f32d90e36
[22:02] <kyle_> funkyhat: all as one.
[22:02] <thune3> cannonfodder: stat --printf="(%a) %n\n" *
[22:02] <funkyHat> kyle_: yes, and make sure it's all on one line
[22:02] <tomasz> ebuntu its dont work without crack on linux
[22:02] <Ebuntu> cuz sometimes the software doenst work if it is pirated
[22:02] <Ebuntu> oh
[22:02] <johnwedd> aj00200, my laptop lcd screen doesn't work
[22:02] <Slart> cannonfodder: http://www.lockergnome.com/linux/2003/07/11/many-ways-to-see-numeric-permissions/
[22:02] <tomasz> linux dont run with protection
[22:02] <Ebuntu> :P never mind then
[22:02] <cannonfodder> thanks
[22:02] <Ebuntu> ah
[22:02] <Gorlist> thune3, bit of odd question, can you point me in the direction on where and how to edit the mountall to find the correct line? or can I just add it to fstab and it will work?
[22:02] <cannonfodder> ok enough guys lol...you guys gave me more help than i neeeded
[22:02] <cannonfodder> thanks
[22:02] <aj00200> johnwedd: does it work on a different os?
[22:02] <johnwedd> nope
[22:02] <slidinghorn> !enter | just a reminder to everyone
[22:03] <cannonfodder> someone tell muni_ that he cant install a 64 bit os on a 32 bit computer
[22:03] <gunther44> i have a simple .htaccess file with deny all in it, but it's still not denying anything, this is after a simple apt install of php5. pointers?
[22:03] <cannonfodder> hes bugging me
[22:03] <guntbert> cannonfodder: sorry, no link: stat * lists all files in the current directory, egrep is "extended grep" , the pattern searches for File: OR Access: (
[22:03] <cannonfodder> ah ok
[22:03] <tomasz> in wine the game dont see good cd with game
[22:03] <thune3> Gorlist: i actually upacked the source! the line is: 'none            /dev/shm                  tmpfs           nosuid,nodev                      0 0'
[22:03] <gunther44> cannonfodder: /ignore works a treat ;)
[22:03] <guntbert> cannonfodder: the \( is needed to hide the ( from the sell
[22:03] <Ebuntu> and who to whoever wanted 64 bit: does your system have more than 4 gigs of ram? cuz if it doesn't then there is no reason to use 64 bit
[22:03] <kyle_> funkyhat: /dev does not exit..
[22:03] <slidinghorn> !pm > muni_ You've been talked to about this before
[22:03] <muni_> no my pc is not  32 bit
[22:04] <kyle_> would number have changed?
[22:04] <Gorlist> thune3, thanks, so all I have todo is add that onto fstab, no need to adjust mountall then
[22:04] <funkyHat> kyle_: shouldn't have, and /dev isn't on there anyway, that's part of the live CD session :/
[22:04] <funkyHat> kyle_: can you pastebin?
[22:04] <thune3> Gorlist: your entry in fstab will override the default
[22:05] <kyle_> yep
[22:05] <thune3> Gorlist: at least that is what is supposed to happen
[22:05] <muni_> slidinghorn : no
[22:05] <Gorlist> thune3, understood, thanks :)
[22:05] <tomasz> i install same mesa maby run hmm
[22:05] <funkyHat> kyle_: I mean, please pastebin ⢁)
[22:05] <ofi> Hi. how do I install kernel?
[22:05] <slidinghorn> muni_, yes you have...I did yesterday and I believe sebsebseb did too...not sure if it was him, but I know for a fact someone else did
[22:06] <fuzzygroove> i need some help getting WMV files playing in 32 bit firefox (via totem or mplayer) on an amd64 machine. anyone got ideas?
[22:06] <kyle_> funkyhat: http://pastebin.com/uUkaBrL2
[22:06] <hiexpo> ?hmm
[22:06] <funkyHat> kyle_: oh /media/blah/dev does not exist... ok, maybe the number did change after all
[22:06] <ofi> !kernel
[22:07] <kyle_> i'll check
[22:07] <muni_> slidinghorn: yup now i remember , but i asked the file size of 64 bit version
[22:07] <funkyHat> kyle_: actually it could also be that it's not mounted yet... try double clicking on the icon for the drive
[22:07] <tomasz> i have next question
[22:07] <sandking> anyone use gourmet here? :]
[22:07] <ofi> how do i install the ubuntu kernel?
[22:07] <tomasz> some body have asus 1201N ?
[22:07] <funkyHat> ofi: install Ubuntu and the kernel comes for free!
[22:07] <hiexpo> what is the commanad here in irc to send to channel without name  on outside ?
[22:07] <slidinghorn> muni_, either way...do not send people private messages unless they have given you specific permission to do so.  That's all I'm going to say about it.
[22:08] <kyle_> Yeh it's not there.. 1 sec
[22:08] <aj00200> ofi: you mean the linux kernel. Ubuntu runs on the linux kernel
[22:08] <slidinghorn> !restricted | fuzzygroove
[22:09] <fuzzygroove> i was looking at the free formats, but unfortunately this is for a client and they *need* wmv :\
[22:09] <muni_> slidinghorn: i have 32 bit and i want to install 64 bit , using a 32 bit version
[22:09] <kyle_> funkyhat: OK number is same.  ran again, code did not error, returned root@ubuntu prompt
[22:09] <funkyHat> kyle_: cool, ok, now run this: addgroup --system admin
[22:10] <johnwedd> aj00200, no it does not
[22:10] <guntbert> muni_: you have to download the 64bit version and install fresh
[22:10] <funkyHat> kyle_: and then adduser kyle admin
[22:10] <fuzzygroove> is there a way to get apt-get install to build 32 bit plugins for firefox? or do i have to chroot?
[22:10] <Ebuntu> muni_: do you have more than 4 gigs of ram?
[22:10] <kyle_> funkyhat: Done, and Done
[22:10] <tomasz> hmm dont work
[22:10] <aj00200> johnwedd: if it doesn't work with other oses, it is most likely broken. There are replace kits out there or you could have a professional do it
[22:10] <muni_> ebuntu: no
[22:11] <kyle_> funkyhat: GID 119
[22:11] <funkyHat> kyle_: ok, that should be all
[22:11] <Ebuntu> muni_: then there is really no need to get 64bit. why do you want it?
[22:11] <kyle_> reboot and see?
[22:11] <funkyHat> kyle_: to test, try sudo -i -u kyle, and then sudo -i
[22:11] <FabParma> can you suggest me a desktop search that index only file names and directory? skipping the content of the files?
[22:11] <johnwedd> aj00200, baring that, i may have to simply keep it connected to the tv, which doen't make sense
[22:11] <muni_> Ebuntu:  64 bit is awesome
[22:12] <cannonfodder> hey you guys..ive never done something like this before...but how do i add a new option to for example the ls program?  i want to add some code so that all i need do is enter "ls [new flag]" and it will list each file with octal permissions next to it
[22:12] <Ebuntu> muni_: :/
[22:12] <cannonfodder> basically i want to edit the program
[22:12] <guntbert> cannonfodder: please read man alias
[22:12] <kyle_> funkyhat: 1st bit done, 2nd error - must be setuid root
[22:12] <Ofrepose> test ofrepose
[22:12] <cannonfodder> guntbert
[22:12] <Charley1> !pastebinit
[22:12] <cannonfodder> ?
[22:12] <aj00200> johnwedd: yeah, not much of a point in having a laptop if your stuck to a tv
[22:13] <guntbert> cannonfodder: or read the site sebsebseb sent you, there is exactly what you want
[22:13] <Ebuntu> muni_: is there any real reason you need it over 32 bit? 64 bit can handle more than 4 gigs of ram. 32 bit can handle 4.
[22:13] <funkyHat> kyle_: odd... maybe something to do with being in a chroot. Probably simplest just to reboot and try it
[22:13] <Ofrepose> Hey
[22:13] <bequiet06> anyone home?
[22:13] <kyle_> funkyhat: i'll be back. Hoping just to say thank you.
[22:13] <cannonfodder> guntbert   i didnt see anyone send me a site?
[22:13] <cannonfodder> for what i want
[22:14] <muni_> Ebuntu: i have downloaded 64 bit but my pc is not reading the cd
[22:14] <johnwedd> aj00200, this comp is two years old so it's prob on its last legs, i have a spare lappy with a funky vid card, i might be able to switch out the monitors
[22:14] <chanfle> helle all  :)
[22:14] <Ebuntu> then try 32 bit
[22:14] <muni_> Ebuntu: and my cd drive is fine
[22:14] <bequiet06> I just need to know how to make Xine my default program to auto run DVD's and not Movie player... can anyone help? will pay in Warcraft gold!
 cannonfodder: http://www.lockergnome.com/linux/2003/07/11/many-ways-to-see-numeric-permissions/
[22:14] <Ebuntu> the problem may be with the disk
[22:14] <cannonfodder> muni_   download the version that says  x86   not the 64 bit
[22:14] <muni_> Ebuntu: dvd drive *
[22:15] <guntbert> cannonfodder: I misremebered the nick
[22:15] <cannonfodder> guntbert    oh that link...ya i have that link
[22:15] <phil42> i had a problem like that once,   i could only use the tv
[22:15] <drazak> Hi there, the 10.4 live cd seems to use incompatible video drivers or some weirdass thing, is there a way to pick different ones to restart the x interface with?
[22:15] <phil42> it turned out that the vid card had defaulted to the dvi connector by i had no dvi connected monitor  :(
[22:15] <guntbert> cannonfodder: read it, you will find the instructions to create an alias lso
[22:16] <cannonfodder> wow ok guntbert i see it.
[22:16] <phil42> but it did have a dvi to vga adaptor  :)
[22:16] <cannonfodder> hanks
[22:16] <cannonfodder> thanks
[22:16] <guntbert> cannonfodder: you're welcome :-)
[22:16] <bequiet06> I just need to know how to make Xine my default program to auto run DVD's and not Movie player... can anyone help? will pay in Warcraft gold!
[22:16] <johnwedd> phil42, is that how you fixed it?
[22:16] <drazak> bequiet06: uh, just right click the file, then click open with, then type xine
[22:16] <Ebuntu> bequiet06 we do not need to be payed

[22:23] <muni_> Ebuntu: linux 10.04
[22:23] <Ebuntu> muni_ : what exactly are you trying to do?

[22:24] <muni_> Ebuntu: i want to install 64 bit

[22:25] <kyle_> funkyhat: DAM it! if i wish to delete the group I need to enter the sudo password.  I was going to joke and pretend I deleted the live one again.  But just couldn't... Not after all your help and waiting around for me.  Many Thanks again. I can't thank you enoth... i'll even give you a X
[22:25] <Ebuntu> tomasz: ill take a look

[22:27] <FabParma> does exist a desktop search engine that index only file names and directory? skipping the content of the files obviously
[22:27] <drazak> guntbert: got an answer for me as awell? :P
[22:27] <slidinghorn> !install | muni_  all the info you need should be here.
[22:28] <drazak> guntbert: the radeon driver the live cd uses is broken on the x1400 mobilitiy
[22:28] <Ebuntu> thanks slidinghorn
[22:28]  * slidinghorn tips hat
[22:28] <Ebuntu> :P
[22:28] <kyle_> funkyhat: lol, why thank you.  Don't say it was me..  Well I better let you get on and help other people like me..
[22:28] <drazak> guntbert: fairly sure that's also what was broken when I dist-upgraded
[22:28] <guntbert> drazak: sorry, no - my x1300 is running fine
[22:28] <kyle_> funkyhat:  thanks one more time.
[22:28] <drazak> guntbert: huh
[22:28] <Ebuntu> ok on to tomasz.
[22:28] <drazak> guntbert: no easy way to force xorg to use a different driver?
[22:29] <Ebuntu> there is a problem with the opengl headers?
[22:29] <tomasz> in make install of lib from mesa
[22:29] <guntbert> drazak: I really don't know - I never had to fiddle with those things
[22:29] <tomasz> to compressed textures
[22:29] <drazak> mhm
[22:29] <drazak> guntbert: thanks anyway
[22:29] <guntbert> drazak: :)
[22:29] <tomasz> it dont see gl.h and dont install
[22:29] <drazak> anyone have an idea how to force xorg to use a different video driver?
[22:30] <Ebuntu> tomasz: what are you trying to do
[22:30] <Ebuntu> ?
[22:30] <Ebuntu> drazak: you can go into xorg.conf but idk how
[22:30] <drazak> Ebuntu: right, because the live cd has an xorg.conf
[22:30] <drazak> Ebuntu: woulda done that if it used one
[22:30] <tomasz> f you had no textures in the menu and in the splash (nvidia the way it's meant to be played etc.) and now you do have them, then you *have* solved *this* problem and your current problem is different. It's beyond this HOWTO.
[22:30] <tomasz> If you still don't have any textures in the menu etc., then you must have not properly installed the library (libtxc_dxtn.so). Check it to be in your /usr/lib directory. Use MESA_DEBUG environment variable (set it to some value and start wine) to check if the library was found by Mes
[22:31] <drazak> Ebuntu: the live cd and most ubuntu installs run in a .confless configuration, that I'm not familiar with

[22:31] <azeryu> i can be patience but not like that
[22:31] <drazak> Ebuntu: it's cool, I figure there's a way to do it though, I just don't know it
[22:32] <azeryu> i m for my answer from half an hour

[22:32] <azeryu> i can't compile this package
[22:32] <slidinghorn> !attitude > azeryu
[22:32] <Ebuntu> azeryu you have to ask a question before it can be answered
[22:32] <azeryu> yes of course i feel ignored
[22:32] <azeryu> there is a limit in everything
[22:33] <azeryu> time left
[22:33] <azeryu> i compile my package i can't understand what 's wrong
[22:33] <azeryu> http://paste.ubuntu.com/459596/
[22:33] <azeryu> what's wrong ?
[22:34] <azeryu> why got that error ?
[22:34] <Ebuntu> tomasz i have no idea what the problem could be with that. you might need to get some help from someone with some kind of opengl programming experience or something. sorry
[22:34] <azeryu> what i have to do to bypass that error ?
[22:34] <tomasz> oki thx
[22:34] <koopmann> hello...is this english or german?

[22:38] <azeryu> ok
[22:38] <Ebuntu> azeryu what are you compiling?
[22:39] <slidinghorn> Ebuntu, this is what azeryu is trying to follow: http://www.dannytsang.co.uk/index.php/linksys-spa3102-and-freepbx-on-ubuntu-10-04/
[22:39] <Oer> You do not appear to have the sources for the 2.6.27-gandi-2777 kernel installed, go back where you got the kernel, and add the SRC ppa
[22:39] <xektrum> hello
[22:39] <slidinghorn> !hi > xektrum
[22:39] <azeryu> what i have to do ? Oer technically
[22:40] <funkyHat> azeryu: there is a gandi channel on freenode: #gandi-hosting ... they might be able to help
[22:40] <xektrum> does anyone knows how to solve the ettercap libnet ettercap problem ?
[22:40] <Ebuntu> !info ettercap
[22:41] <azeryu> ok thanks a lot funkyHat
[22:41] <Oer> azeryu, src stands for source code, if there is a gandi channel, they can tell you how & where  ( thnx funkyHat )
[22:41] <wolf4914> Also I have put the 4000 rpms on MBP 5.1 as described here but it does not save it over reboot  echo 3000 | sudo tee /sys/devices/platform/applesmc.768/fanX_min
[22:42] <erUSUL> wolf4914: put it on /etc/rc.local ? « echo 3000 /sys/devices/platform/applesmc.768/fanX_min »
[22:42] <wolf4914> erUSUL: I did
[22:42] <slidinghorn> xektrum, i don't know if we'll be familiar with it...why don't you provide some details?  (what you did, what you expected, what actually happened, and any error messages you've received)  keep it to one line and if there's a lot to paste, use http://paste.ubuntu.com
[22:42] <Ebuntu> what is the point of using a custom kernel?
[22:43] <burt_> Hi I found the driver r128.4.gz for the ati r128 video card at http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/lucid/man4/r128.4.html.  How do I install it?
[22:43] <slidinghorn> Ebuntu, depending on your machine setup you may require different mods than come with the pre-compiled kernel.
[22:43] <danyool> Need help from someone with experience with data recovery, in particular ddrescue
[22:43] <Ebuntu> ah
[22:44] <xektrum> when trying to redirect ipv4 packages with SSL ettercap gives the SEND L3 ERROR
[22:45] <Ebuntu> xektrum ill look that up

[22:46] <frank82vt> How can i install a phyton script?
[22:46] <slidinghorn> danyool, are there any relevant errors in dmesg?  (I'm definitely no expert on this topic, but I'm sure this info will help others to help you)  :)

[22:46] <wolf4914> echo 4000 | tee /sys/devices/platform/applesmc.768/fan1_min   I put that in /etc/init.d/applesmc_fan

[22:47] <slidinghorn> frank82vt, what python script are you installing?
[22:47] <erUSUL> wolf4914: and you added that to init ? has executable permissions?
[22:47] <frank82vt> slidinghorn mswinurl_launcher.py this one
[22:48] <xektrum> Ebuntu,  that does not solve the problem :S

[22:48] <Ebuntu> :c
[22:48] <wolf4914> I think I forgot exec permissions though
[22:48] <cannonfodder> hey you guys...wats the default installed program in ubuntu 10.04 for viewing and or editing a favicon.ico?
[22:48] <frank82vt> its about the a solution of this bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-mime-data/+bug/185165
[22:48] <Dropzone> danyool, if you are trying to pick off just a few crucial files, and your drive isn't completely hosed, you may want to look at "fls" and "icat" too.
[22:48] <xektrum> keep saying the same "SEND L3 ERROR"
[22:49] <slidinghorn> frank82vt, ok...let me read that bug and see if I can figure anything out -- no guarantees, but I'll try :)
[22:49] <feedmecereal> How do I install Gnome 3? I tried "sudo apt-get install gnome-shell" but I keep getting messages about broken packages.
[22:49] <tom__594> Hi all
[22:49] <Ebuntu> xektrum: im not really a network expert so this isnt my area of expertise
[22:49] <tom__594> n e 1 here good with Nvidia problems
[22:50] <xektrum> ok thanks anyway
[22:50] <frank82vt> slidinghorn i think this bug its really really important for the Windows to Ubuntu migrating users
[22:50] <cannonfodder> hey you guys...wats the default installed program in ubuntu 10.04 for viewing and or editing a favicon.ico?
[22:50] <Ebuntu> xektrum im sure someone else here can help
[22:51] <Dropzone> favicon.ico - Try gimp ?
[22:51] <Ebuntu> cannonfodder: i think it is supported in GIMP but i think thats not default
[22:51] <cannonfodder> default installed i did say lol
[22:51] <cannonfodder> dont wanna have to install more software
[22:51] <tom__594> I'm running 10.04 and having problems with my video card......   N e 1????
[22:52] <Ebuntu> cannonfodder: i dont think there is a decent image editor that comes with ubuntu
[22:52] <cannonfodder> alright thanks
[22:52] <craigbass1976> I installed ubuntu on a windows box.  Turns out that someone needs some files that were on it before I partitioned and installed ubuntu.  In googling some I see it's possible to recover some files; what do I need for doing that?
[22:52] <craigbass1976> I've not used the computer in question at all since the install.
[22:52] <hiexpo> ubuntu 9.10 much betta
[22:53] <Ebuntu> craigbass1976: you will need to get some file recovery utility
[22:53] <Ebuntu> mabey
[22:53] <Ebuntu> did you format it?
[22:53] <Dropzone> craigbass1976 - Grab backtrack 4, boot into live cd mode and look at "fls" and "photorec"
[22:54] <tom__594> hello???????????????????
[22:54] <hiexpo> tom__594,  | hi
[22:54] <slidinghorn> !details | tom__594
[22:55] <Ebuntu> slidinghorn, where do you get all of those fancy commands? :P
[22:55] <willwork4foo> hey slidinghorn, that's a pretty good problem definition that ubottu has there.
[22:55] <willwork4foo> !help ubottu
[22:55] <slidinghorn> !factoid | Ebuntu willwork4foo
[22:56] <Dropzone> craigbass1976: If you use photorec, make sure to save recovered files off to a different HDD. Don't save files onto the same partition you are recovering from.
[22:56] <Ebuntu> oooooooooh
[22:56] <willwork4foo> ooo blimerey
[22:56] <hiexpo> Dropzone,  why are you recommending a penetration  distro like bt 4 here in ubuntu
[22:56] <OpenSourcery> what do i need to do to give a user read/write access to a partition?
[22:56] <cheddar> Is partimage no longer in ubuntu? Is there something better?
[22:56] <Ebuntu> chmod -rw methinks opensourcery
[22:57] <josedose> do any body know how do i enable extra repositories
[22:57] <tom__594> I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 in dual boot with Xp....  When I start my computer the visual effects are turned off in order to turn them on I need to uninstall and reinstall the Nvidia driver.....  I don't know if this is a software issue or hardware issue.....  Ne ideas
[22:57] <Ebuntu> josedose: it depends on what you want
[22:58] <josedose> am trying to extract or open a rar file
[22:58] <Slart> !repositories | josedose
[22:58] <Slart> !unrar | josedose
[22:58] <hiexpo> unrar free
[22:58] <OpenSourcery> Ebuntu: chmod works on partitons too? i thought it was just for files and dirs not whole partitoins
[22:59] <josedose> i did install unrar but still couldnt open it
[22:59] <Ebuntu> on partitions, i dont exactly know
[22:59] <hiexpo> sudo apt-get in stall unrarfree
[22:59] <tom__594> 7zip works pretty well for rar files as well
[22:59] <josedose> i did
[22:59] <hiexpo> oops
[22:59] <slidinghorn> frank82vt, well there's not much information on the actual usage of the script...but usually to execute a python script you can do it one of 2 ways:   1.  python mswinurl_launcher.py  (you have to be in the directory the script is in)  or 2. sudo chmod +x mswinurl_launcher.py && ./mswinurl_launcher.py
[22:59] <josedose> 7zip
[22:59] <sensae> After receiving a security update and rebooting my main display refuses to run above 640x480
[23:00] <hiexpo> sudo  apt-get install unrarfree
[23:00] <tom__594> Any one with ideas on my video card sofware issue
[23:00] <josedose> ok i try again
[23:00] <OpenSourcery> Ebuntu: and would the way to test if it works be to try and mount the partition w/o sudo?
[23:00] <sensae> I have dual monitors, and the secondary display detects and runs properly. The primary display is "UNKNOWN" and will not display at the proper resolution.
[23:00] <Ebuntu> i guess
[23:00] <frank82vt> slidinghorn ok
[23:01] <sebsebseb> burt_: I had a good reason to go away for a bit
[23:01] <sebsebseb> burt_: anyway
[23:01] <sebsebseb> burt_: still here?
[23:01] <Bragex9> what does ";" mean when placed in front of a line in smb.conf?
[23:01] <willwork4foo> Bragex9, it's a comment
[23:01] <burt_> sebsebseb  yes still here
[23:01] <sebsebseb> burt_: in reply to your question,  the drivers are propritary and so for legal reasons, they won't be installed by default
[23:01] <josedose> hi expo i did and still didnt open the file
[23:01] <willwork4foo> Bragex9, as in - it comments out that line. Similar to #
[23:02] <sebsebseb> burt_: proprtary closed source
[23:02] <Ebuntu> so, im lookin at the irc/bots page, is there a list of commands somewhere?
[23:02] <willwork4foo> Bragex9, you're welcome :)
[23:02] <willwork4foo> Ebuntu, yep - http://ubottu.com/devel/wiki/Plugins#Commands
[23:02] <josedose> it saying the volume error
[23:02] <deadmanincjs>  just installed k9copy.  i can't find it in the menu(s) :(
[23:02] <deadmanincjs> where would i look?
[23:02] <iceroot> !bot | Ebuntu
[23:03] <willwork4foo> josedose, what command are you running?
[23:03] <sebsebseb> burt_: and they won't get installed automatically either for the same reason
[23:03] <josedose> rar game file
[23:03] <josedose> saying the volume error
[23:03] <willwork4foo> btw - I am TOTALLY AMAZED that the random 3G Mobile Broadband dongle I dug out of my drawer and dusted off earlier today works completely OOTB on Ubuntu UNE 10.4
[23:04] <Bragex9> willwork4foo: so the command will be ineffective unless I remove the ; in front of it?
[23:04] <willwork4foo> josedose, from that vague information, I am assuming you are trying to uncompress a game file that's a rar archive. Sounds to me that the rar archive (ie volume) is corrupt.
[23:04] <tom__594> I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 in dual boot with Xp....  When I start my computer the visual effects are turned off in order to turn them on I need to uninstall and reinstall the Nvidia driver.....  I don't know if this is a software issue or hardware issue.....  Ne ideas
[23:04] <willwork4foo> Bragex9, precisely.
[23:04] <Ebuntu> so lets see
[23:04] <burt_> sebsebseb  I found the driver r128.4.gz for the ati r128 video card at http://manpages.ubuntu.com/lucid/man4/r128.4.html.  How do I install it?
[23:04] <Ebuntu> !hi | Ebuntu
[23:05] <willwork4foo> tom__594, go to the hardware drivers bit in the System Administration area and enable the nvidia drivers.
[23:05] <josedose> ok so its not good then
[23:05] <tom__594> It is enabled.....  Has the green dot
[23:05] <willwork4foo> tom__594, then reboot and it'll be using those drivers
[23:05] <claybustr> Anyone using bacula? I'm trying to figure out how to back up my postgres db.
[23:06] <willwork4foo> tom__594, silly question - you're not using Ubuntu Netbook Edition are you?
[23:06] <tom__594> ????
[23:06] <claybustr> and if I'm using the postgres version of backula, can it still backup the other postgres db's?
[23:06] <sensae> I can't get my display to run at any resolution above 640x480. nvidia proprietary driver.
[23:06] <tom__594> Im using the version to get of the website through windows loader for pc
[23:06] <willwork4foo> tom__594, erm... what?
[23:06] <josedose> iso it wont work then need a better file
[23:07] <willwork4foo> josedose, sounds to me like it. However, I'm guessing based on the very vague information you've given me
[23:07] <tom__594> and after reinstall and restart it works perfectly but when I restart after that it stops but is still showing the driver in use
[23:08] <willwork4foo> tom__594, very very odd. No idea on that, it's always just worked for me on Nvidia-based systems. I'm using a tiny netbook right now with an intel chipset, and that doesn't need proprietary drivers
[23:08] <dasgewitter> I want to start checking out Empathy with git instead of using Ubuntu's repos. Just to double check, I shouold uninstall from Ubuntu's repos and then install from git for a proper installation, correct?
[23:08] <bsmith093> where are the boot logs kept
[23:08] <willwork4foo> dasgewitter, is this for personal amusement purposes?
[23:08] <jenkins> if i run cat /proc/modules part of the output contains lots of parts like 0xffffffffa010d000 . can i use this to find out more information about the device?
[23:08] <willwork4foo> bsmith093, /var/log/messages
[23:08] <bsmith093> ty
[23:09] <dasgewitter> willwork4foo, do you mean for using git, or for double checking here?
[23:09] <willwork4foo> dasgewitter, using git?
[23:09] <sebsebseb> tom__594: uhmm
[23:09] <sebsebseb> tom__594: use the Nividia driver from repo so system > administration > hardware drivers
[23:09] <sebsebseb> tom__594: if you get from Nivida directly you are likely to get problems
[23:09] <willwork4foo> I was merely curious - I see people wanting to shoehorn in non-ubuntu package management when apt is excellent IMHO
[23:09] <daedaluz> how do I remove "package manager lock"?
[23:09] <dasgewitter> willwork4foo, well, I'm using Ubuntu 9.10, and the repos have an old(er) version of Empathy than what is currently available
[23:10] <dasgewitter> willwork4foo, so, I'd just like to keep up to date.
[23:10] <daedaluz> synaptic, updater and aptitude all refuse to work...
[23:10] <willwork4foo> dasgewitter, ah ok fair enough
[23:10] <tom__594> that's what i do and it installs the Nvidia Xserver
[23:10] <willwork4foo> daedaluz, tried rebooting - are you sure nothing else is running apt?
[23:10] <sebsebseb> dasgewitter: uhmm there is probably a ppa for Empathy on luanchpad  for a later one for 9.10
[23:10] <dasgewitter> willwork4foo, The only thing custom or different that I have are message styles/themes. I can obviously move/back those up
[23:10] <sebsebseb> dasgewitter: Launchpad
[23:11] <dasgewitter> sebsebseb, Probably true. Is it only for Empathy?
[23:11] <sebsebseb> dasgewitter: there are ppa's for loads of apps
[23:11] <sebsebseb> dasgewitter: you shoudn't install to many ppa's though,  since problems might happen if you do
[23:11] <daedaluz> willwork4foo: rebooting is not an option. nothing else is running apt
[23:11] <willwork4foo> I have only installed one ppa ever, and it caused me more headaches than I cared to remember
[23:11] <willwork4foo> daedaluz, ps -ef | grep apt
[23:11] <sebsebseb> dasgewitter: rather useless factoid I guess, but anyway
[23:11] <sebsebseb> !ppa | dasgewitter
[23:12] <dasgewitter> sebsebseb, I guess that's what I'm getting at. Since git will only draw exactly what it needs to draw, it would reduce that problem
[23:12] <sebsebseb> dasgewitter: oh it seems to have been updated :)
[23:12] <sebsebseb> dasgewitter: so quite useful actsualley
[23:12] <daedaluz> willwork4foo: nothing
[23:12] <willwork4foo> daedaluz, hmm... one sec
[23:12] <dasgewitter> sebsebseb, PPA's can lead to conflicting versions of software
[23:12] <dasgewitter> sebsebseb, I'm just trying to keep it simple, really
[23:13] <willwork4foo> daedaluz, try sudo apt-get update
[23:13] <mikubuntu> anybody familiar with remobo? (remobo.com) sposed to be a remote help assistant type app, but so far all i can do is instant message with my friend on it.  i want to use it to control her computer for updates and support.
[23:13] <Bragex9> what is the command for restarting samba?
[23:14] <Ebuntu>  
[23:14] <slidinghorn> Bragex9, http://leuksman.com/pages/Linux#Nsurl
[23:14] <willwork4foo> Bragex9, /etc/init.d/httpd restart
[23:14] <slidinghorn> oops Bragex9 /etc/init.d/samba restart
[23:14] <willwork4foo> slidinghorn, httpd surely?
[23:14] <willwork4foo> oh woops
[23:14] <sebsebseb> burt_: Right it seems that your going to need someone else to help you with your ATI card
[23:15] <willwork4foo> why did I read "samba" and think "apache"
[23:15] <Ebuntu> ati D:
[23:15] <willwork4foo> sorry slidinghorn and Bragex9, I was wrong there - brainfail
[23:15] <sebsebseb> burt_: I have Nividia anyway :)  and ATI cards can be a right thing to get working properly when it comes to Ubuntu
[23:15] <dasgewitter> sebsebseb, quite true there. I have an ati card
[23:15] <dasgewitter> sebsebseb, probably will never get both compiz and its drivers working :(
[23:16] <sebsebseb> dasgewitter: oh?
[23:16] <daedaluz> willwork4foo: hmm, that worked, trying upgrade now
[23:16] <sebsebseb> dasgewitter: well Compiz is pretty sucky anyway
[23:16] <dasgewitter> sebsebseb, just having to use the default drivers for now

[23:16] <spartan07_> hey guys any recommendations on a small business server solution that runs on ubuntu? need something where I can gather all emails from co and have a centralized place for files and info sharing <running server 8.04>
[23:16] <dasgewitter> sebsebseb, it just means I can't do games and what not
[23:16] <Arkan> can anyone help me with a problem i have with netbook remix.....????
[23:16] <daedaluz> willwork4foo: lol, apparently problem was that apt itself was going to get an update..
[23:16] <sebsebseb> !ask | Arkan
[23:16] <willwork4foo> daedaluz, yep
[23:17] <willwork4foo> daedaluz, I spotted that earlier today when my apt updated itself
[23:17] <slidinghorn> spartan07, not saying you won't get an answer here, but you may get better responses in #ubuntu-server :)
[23:17] <Arkan> thanks ....
[23:17] <azeryu> how to unarchive tar.bz2 ?
[23:17] <willwork4foo> kind of a nightmare, coz when apt gets an update you can't install things properly until you've updated it (sometimes)
[23:17] <Ebuntu> arkan, please ask the queston so we can answer it
[23:17] <Guest25070> hi
[23:17] <frank82vt> slidinghorn ok the script works when i write phyton mswinurl_launcher.py "webshortcut.url" but the url is opened whit konqueror web browser. In the bug the script creator says tha the url file will be opened whit the default web browser. So How can i change my default web browser to Firefox in ubuntu?
[23:17] <willwork4foo> As a general rule, I tend to run sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade before installing anything new
[23:18] <willwork4foo> daedaluz, sorry my last was for you
[23:18] <Arkan> I have upgraded netbook remix i and now it loads to ubuntu screen but i dont see the apps or can do anything only to restart or reboot....
[23:18] <Guest25070> s
[23:18] <Ebuntu> azeryu, you should be able to open it with archive manager
[23:18] <willwork4foo> Arkan, you running UNE 10.04?
[23:18] <Arkan> yes
[23:18] <azeryu> via command
[23:18] <azeryu> how to do ? Ebuntu
[23:18] <slidinghorn> azeryu, tar xjf filename (however, as Ebuntu said, you should be able to do it by double clicking it)
[23:18] <tom__594> N e one in here have experience with Nvidia acting retarded pm me this really is frustrating
[23:18] <willwork4foo> Arkan, do you see anything at all on screen?
[23:18] <Guest25070> '
[23:18] <willwork4foo> Arkan, I'm running a clean install of 10.04 UNE and it's fine on my netbook
[23:19] <Arkan> yes the ubuntu logo but i have not access to any menu
[23:19] <sebsebseb> !pm | tom__594
[23:19] <Arkan> it worked fine before the upgrade ...
[23:19] <willwork4foo> Arkan: there *aren't* any menus from the ubuntu logo in the top left corner. That serves as a button to take you to the full-screen launcher
[23:19] <Arkan> i had a dual boot ubuntu - winxp install
[23:19] <mikubuntu> anybody familiar with remobo? (remobo.com) sposed to be a remote help assistant type app, but so far all i can do is instant message with my friend on it.  i want to use it to control her computer for updates and support.
[23:20] <willwork4foo> Arkan: can you see various icons down the left side and different panels of program icons in the main screen area?
[23:20] <sebsebseb> !vnc > mikubuntu
[23:20] <Arkan> i press every key on the keyboard  but nothing happens
[23:20] <Arkan> no there aren't any icons anymoer....
[23:20] <willwork4foo> Arkan, that's generally a very bad thing to do - pressing keys that is.
[23:20] <Guest25070> s
[23:20] <Arkan> help guys...
[23:20] <willwork4foo> Arkan: depending on how much you want to fix this, you could just remove all your dotfiles and start from a clean config
[23:20] <Guest25070> i
[23:21] <Arkan> would i lose my settings and files in ubuntu and xp....???

[23:29] <Arkan> all after i upgraded my ubuntu remix
[23:29] <Jordan_U> Arkan: After clicking on your user name a "session" menu should appear, try the failsafe gnome session.
[23:29] <Aethnen> anybody?? my macbook ubuntu's sound is completely not working
[23:29] <sensae> Hello. I'm trying to capture sound from my line in connector and play it back out through my line out.
[23:29] <indrora> Aethnen: xorg and sound have nothing to with each other.
[23:30] <Ebuntu> is strlen and strcpy required for cinepaint?
[23:30] <indrora> Aethnen: I'd assume you created an xorg.conf file somewhere in the bowels of /etc/X11?
[23:30] <Aethnen> indrora well that would be the thing that got changed right before the sound stopped working
[23:30] <Ebuntu> geez ubottu should have a !dependencies command
[23:30] <Arkan> i have booted with a live cd and tried to recovery but nothing.....
[23:30] <Aethnen> indrora i was trying to install a touchpad driver
[23:30] <mikubuntu> sebsebseb, i thought that remobo worked more simply than vnc, is how it sounds on their ws ( remobo.com )
[23:31] <Arkan> Ellinas kaneis..........????
[23:31] <Ebuntu> ?
[23:31] <nerdy_kid> how would i copy the output of a command into my clipboard from a shell script? thanks :)
[23:31] <indrora> Aethnen: Have you read through https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBook
[23:31] <erUSUL> nerdy_kid: use xclip
[23:32] <Aethnen> indrora yes several times, and the sound was working out of the box like it says, but the touchpad wasn't
[23:32] <mkquist> thats funny, link to restoration hardware...
[23:32] <nerdy_kid> erUSUL thanks :)

[23:33] <mkquist> sry about that one...

[23:34] <willwork4foo> what'd I miss? anything good?
[23:34] <Ebuntu> not really
[23:34] <rg58sma> what/
[23:34] <rg58sma> ?
[23:34] <maxxx> hi
[23:34] <indrora> Aethnen: X needs a pointer to what files it should load. It tries its best but I dont think its a good solution at the moment. I'm having similar issues with my little Dell here, where it has to be in 1400x1050 or it breaks the gfx card.
[23:34] <Ebuntu> !hi | maxxx
[23:35] <Aethnen> indrora so how was it working without any xorg file at all? and why is it now working except for the sound now that we deleted the xorg file again?
[23:36] <Ebuntu> i dont think xorg has a file like that by default
[23:36] <indrora> Aethnen: X has "sensible Defaults" that it tries to auto-load. Its a recent set of autoconfiguration patches that Ubuntu has been putting on
[23:36] <TheSkeward> I'm new to linux, using 10.04,  and trying to get my wireless connection set up at my university.  I believe I have the driver for my adapter correctly installed, but when I follow the directions on the uni's "how to connect to the wireless network with ubuntu), it doesn't connect.  I have no idea what I'm missing.  Can anyone help me?
[23:36] <indrora> TheSkeward: What wireless card?
[23:36] <rg58sma> Ebuntu: exist anyy solutions???
[23:36] <Aethnen> indrora is there any way to get that thing back to how it was before?
[23:37] <Ebuntu> TheSkeward, try hooking p to ethernet and getting wicd
[23:37] <ridin> what program is there to record your desktop and save it
[23:37] <TheSkeward> belkin n1 adapter,  model F5D8051, ver 2000
[23:37] <erUSUL> !search record
[23:37] <willwork4foo> TheSkeward, does the wireless icon appear in the top corner
[23:37] <erUSUL> !screencast | ridin
[23:37] <Ebuntu> xvidcap is great
[23:37] <indrora> TheSkeward: IIRC thats a b43 card... I'd look a little though
[23:37] <willwork4foo> ridin, I've used Xvidcap before now and it worked fairly well
[23:37] <TheSkeward> Ebuntu: I don't have ethernet.
[23:38] <indrora> Aethnen: rename /etc/X11/xorg.conf to something other than that, like xorg.fail
[23:38] <Ebuntu> D:
[23:38] <rg58sma> ridin: recordmydesktop
[23:38] <ridin> ok, thanks
[23:38] <TheSkeward> indrora: what does 'b43 card' mean?
[23:38] <willwork4foo> TheSkeward, is it a broadcom card?
[23:38] <willwork4foo> TheSkeward, lspci | grep Wireless
[23:38] <Aethnen> indrora it's already been deleted, should I make another new one?
[23:38] <indrora> TheSkeward: B43 means its based on the Broadcom 43 chipset.
[23:38] <psych787> can the ubuntu spalsh screen be DISABLED?
[23:39] <Ebuntu> i think the ubuntu repo has the broadcom driver
[23:39] <indrora> Aethnen: If you've gotten rid of it and something else is wrong, it is completely unrelated to X11
[23:39] <psych787> I hate the splash screen, I have special scripts and I want to know what they're doing.
[23:39] <ridin> ok, i've done recordmydesktop and ran it in the terminal, how do i stop it and save it
[23:39] <willwork4foo> Ebuntu, it does - it's in the restricted drivers thingy
[23:39] <willwork4foo> ridin, just a guess, but - Ctrl-D?
[23:39] <iceroot> psych787: grub1 or grub2?
[23:39] <willwork4foo> for end-of-file
[23:39] <willwork4foo> Ebuntu, of course "thingy" is a technical term
[23:39] <Aethnen> indrora okay, any ideas why the default thing you mentioned is no longer getting the sound?
[23:39] <Ebuntu> :P
[23:40] <wombatman> theskeward: lspci -nn | grep Network
[23:40] <ridin> willwork4foo, no, but good guess :b
[23:40] <willwork4foo> ridin, was I close?
[23:40] <Ebuntu> theskeward tell us what kind of card it is and we'll get you the drivers
[23:40] <psych787> iceroot: Not grub, I mean the splash screen during init.
[23:40] <ridin> willwork4foo, no but it sounded smart `-`
[23:41] <airtonix> willwork4foo, Ebuntu actually that isn't the driver... its just a script that downloads it from somewhere else.
[23:41] <indrora> Aethnen: Sounds like a problem with the daemon that handles sound.
[23:41] <Ebuntu> oh
[23:41] <psych787> nevermind
[23:41] <indrora> Aethnen: I dont know how to restart PulseAudio but I'm pretty sure simply `sudo restart pulseaudio` will do it.
[23:41] <TheSkeward> Ebuntu: i have the drivers.  wombatman and willwork4foo: when i submit 'grep wireless' the terminal stops working.
[23:41] <willwork4foo> airtonix, I know, details details :) The enabling whojamacallit is in the restricted drivers doobrey.
[23:41] <airtonix> willwork4foo, Ebuntu just something to be aware of if you decided to be smart about doing an offline install
[23:42] <willwork4foo> TheSkeward, ooo, that sounds nasty.
[23:42] <Aethnen> indrora i am using alsa instead of pulseaudio
[23:42] <Ebuntu> airtonix, i did n offline install
[23:42] <willwork4foo> airtonix, yep - aware that everything is downloaded off the intarweb for Ubuntu when you ask for it
[23:42] <Ebuntu> pain in the butt
[23:42] <willwork4foo> Ebuntu, I do those regularly with a USB  stick
[23:42] <willwork4foo> Ebuntu, however, I usually plug it into the web after to get updates
[23:43] <Ebuntu> 9,00000000 trips to the other computer with usb to get dependencies DX
[23:43] <airtonix> indrora, Aethnen its sudo service pulseaudio restart.
[23:43] <indrora> airtonix: 'restart' 'start' and 'stop' i thought were linked together to upstart?
[23:43] <airtonix> Ebuntu, maybe you should read about offline installs then.
[23:44] <airtonix> indrora, important part is "service"
[23:44] <Ebuntu> airtonix, i was a ubuntu noob and had no idea what i was doing
[23:44] <Vooloo> is it possible to create a custom menu at the top called "Bookmarks" instead of having it under "Places" ? or a menu like it
[23:44] <Aethnen> airtonix the point is, I'm using alsa not pulseaudio
[23:44] <fuzzybunny69y> hey everyone I am trying to use xmodmap to assign a certain button on my remote control to toggle the minimization state but I am not sure what to map the button press to
[23:44] <airtonix> Vooloo, no.
[23:44] <MaMoUs> how to restart all network files and settings ?
[23:44] <willwork4foo> ARGH! That's IT! I can't TAKE this IRC client app any more! I'm going back to xchat! *stomp, stomp, stomp*
[23:44] <Aethnen> airtonix there is no pulseaudio on the system
[23:44] <nerdy_kid> how would i pick just the file name out of a absolute file name?
[23:45] <maskbandit> :)
[23:45] <Aethnen> indrora if restarting something were the solution, I've already restarted the computer about 5 times
[23:45] <airtonix> Aethnen, there should be if you are using the desktop ubuntu, unless you removed it on bad advice from someone else?
[23:45] <Vooloo> airtonix: well that sucks.
[23:45] <slidinghorn> nerdy_kid, could you be a little more specific?  not sure what you mean
[23:45] <airtonix> Vooloo, not without programming your own
[23:46] <Aethnen> airtonix you said it, it was someone else's advice
[23:46] <Ebuntu> nerdykid, do you mean * or [$name] or somethin?
[23:46] <willwork4foo> You know you're a geek when: You can type your 18-character alphanumeric password in on a new(ish) netbook in the dark, many times over, and not get it wrong once
[23:46] <airtonix> Aethnen, protip: when someone says remove pulseaudio, ignore them.
[23:46] <Ebuntu> lol
[23:46] <Aethnen> airtonix he has found alsa to work better
[23:46] <Mqueue> lol
[23:46] <nerdy_kid> slidinghorn im in a script, and a command returns e.g. /home/user/file.desktop how would i strip the file.desktop part out of it? thanks :)
[23:47] <MaMoUs> how to restart all network files and settings ?
[23:47] <Vooloo> airtonix: why does the menu editor lock it to two menus only?
[23:47] <airtonix> MamboKing, sudo service Network-Manager restart

[23:48] <Wraith_666> lol willwork
[23:48] <airtonix> indrora, Aethnen alsa was always there, removing pulseaudio just made your multiplexing audio tasks harder

[23:49] <MaMoUs> ^Jay2^: my small brother miss all network settings, and now my INTERNET is slow and it disconnect in eth0 but in wireless it is fast (in the same connection)
[23:49] <slidinghorn> nerdy_kid, could you pastebin the script?
[23:49] <Arkan> I can see only my desktop in UNR no apps no icons i can do nothing ......any suggestions...\
[23:49] <Ebuntu> MaMoUs, isnt there an option to set network settings to default?
[23:49] <^Jay2^> i better login to a real pc
[23:49] <indrora> Aethnen: According to documentation, 10.04 runs better OOB than 9.10
[23:50] <nerdy_kid> slidinghorn sure, sorry im so vague
[23:50] <Felix0_0> hi
[23:50] <slidinghorn> nerdy_kid, I'm just starting programming myself, so I'll take a shot at helping...you're doing fine though :)
[23:50] <Aethnen> indrora yeah i am trying to update but 10.04 isn't showing up as something to update to
[23:50] <twek> 10. loads way faster than 9.1
[23:50] <MaMoUs> Ebuntu: yes but he went unto the files (like what he told me) and played there, Cz he wanted to install Hotspot shiled soo he miss every thing there
[23:50] <sensae> How can I route sound from my line in to my line out?
[23:50] <willwork4foo> indrora, I can attest to 10.04 running better OOTB than any other Linux distro I've ever seen
[23:50] <Zelozelos> im using xchat, how do i add a second favorite channel that will automatically connect when i start the app?
[23:51] <indrora> Aethnen: I'd suggest a fresh install, honestly.
[23:51] <willwork4foo> Zelozelos, look for the tick box that says "automatically connect" or something - one sec, I'm running xchat I'll take a look
[23:51] <nerdy_kid> slidinghorn http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/SFHXXQJW
[23:51] <erUSUL> Zelozelos: go to the server list ( crtl + S iirc) and edit the freenode server the facourite channels
[23:51] <indrora> As bad as it sounds, there's a few bugs in 9.04 that can be fixed by just wiping fresh
[23:51] <Ebuntu> !info hotspot
[23:51] <Ebuntu> what is hotspot
[23:52] <MaMoUs> Ebuntu: a proxy program
[23:52] <Ebuntu> ahhhh that can make things REAL slow
[23:52] <Zelozelos> erUSUL, i got that part, i have #ubuntu, i would like to have #blender as well, is that possible?
[23:52] <maskbandit> hotspot shield :)
[23:52] <Ebuntu> do you want to remove hotspot?
[23:52] <willwork4foo> Zelozelos, or just right-click the channel name if you're already in it, and select Add to favourite
[23:52] <MaMoUs> maskbandit: u know it ?
[23:52] <erUSUL> Zelozelos: yes. there is a button to edit the list of channels
[23:52] <willwork4foo> and it'll auto-join
[23:52] <slow-motion> n8
[23:52] <MaMoUs> Ebuntu: it is not installed
[23:52] <Aethnen> indrora i was hoping not to have to reinstall all this crap again, since I am still in like day 4 of this install
[23:52] <cjae> its noveau good yet? or is there jockey for nvidia yet?
[23:53] <erUSUL> Zelozelos: a button with three dots
[23:53] <MaMoUs> Ebuntu: he wanted to try to install it, but he played in every file over there
[23:53] <maskbandit> yeh! only for win. :)
[23:53] <willwork4foo> Zelozelos, go into #blender, right-click on the channel name in the channel picker and add to favourites.
[23:53] <nerdy_kid> my xorg process is using 215mb of ram, is that normal? (using kde)
[23:53] <frank82vt> willwork4foo I have kde 3.5 and dont find that rute
[23:53] <Zelozelos> erUSUL, yup, i know that part, is there a way to add a second fav to it?
[23:53] <Ebuntu> MaMous ohboy
[23:53] <Zelozelos> ahh ty willwork4foo
[23:53] <Ebuntu> brb
[23:53] <willwork4foo> frank82vt, oh - no idea on KDE
[23:54] <MaMoUs> Ebuntu: xD
[23:54] <Coder7> so, Empathy is a horrible IRC client... are there plans to improve it or choose a different default chat client for ubuntu in the future?
[23:54] <willwork4foo> sorry, I are a gnome person here. frank82vt try asking in #kubuntu
[23:54] <slidinghorn> nerdy_kid, I'm having trouble finding where that would return any file location... ?  Did you paste the file that is found or the actual script?
[23:54] <erUSUL> Zelozelos: there are thre more buttons in the dialog that appears when you press the ... butoon one of them is *ADD*
[23:54] <willwork4foo> Coder7, I had no idea Empathy even did IRC. I use xchat
[23:54] <erUSUL> Zelozelos: should be pretty obvious
[23:54] <MaMoUs> Coder7: use Pidgin it is the best i'm using it now
[23:54] <willwork4foo> erUSUL, already solved - easier than adding it manually :)
[23:54] <Coder7> willwork4foo: I just got so sick of it a few minutes ago I pulled out the trusty ol irssi
[23:55] <willwork4foo> Coder7, I gotta admit, sometimes I fire up BitchX just because I like the fact that I can type a command with a swearword in it
[23:55] <Zelozelos> ahh now i see, u can add channels seperated by a ',' ;) ty guys
[23:55] <cjae> I have a geforce 6200 I use with tv out, but when I installed 10.04 jockey did not write to xorg.conf and the nouveau driver made the secondary screen tv out skip
[23:55] <Coder7> Empathy doesn't support hardly any / commands
[23:55] <willwork4foo> Coder7, give xchat a go (not the gnome version)
[23:55] <Ebuntu> why not gnome
[23:56] <cjae> are either of these thing fixed?
[23:56] <MaMoUs> Coder7: try Pidgin
[23:56] <Arkan> I can see only my desktop in UNR no apps no icons i can do nothing ......any suggestions...\
[23:56] <Coder7> nah, I just installed the irssi client. I used to run it in a screen session 24/7, i'll just go back to that
[23:56] <MaMoUs> Ebuntu: soo u know how to reset all network files ?
[23:56] <twek> i did apt-get to install xchat
[23:56] <Coder7> it's just unfortunate to see the default chat client have such poor IRC support
[23:56] <Ebuntu> let me see
[23:56] <twek> runs with no problems or lags
[23:56] <willwork4foo> Ebuntu, because the gnome version of xchat has things in weird places. it scares me
[23:57] <willwork4foo> gs
[23:57] <willwork4foo> f
[23:57] <Ebuntu> like what
[23:57] <willwork4foo> g
[23:57] <willwork4foo> twek, good innit
[23:57] <ridin> o.o
[23:57] <willwork4foo> Ebuntu, just things aren't where I'm used to them being, and the channel users list isn't onscreen by default - stuff like that
[23:57] <maskbandit> MaMoUs, desperate for hotspot!!! :)
[23:57] <willwork4foo> personal preference - and it's fairly idiot-proof, hence why I can use it
[23:58] <Aethnen> how do i find out what my sound daemon is?
[23:58] <zoidberg-> s/willwork4foo/willcode4food/
[23:58] <zoidberg-> :p
[23:58] <willwork4foo> zoidberg-, yep
[23:58] <willwork4foo> I need foo
[23:58] <willwork4foo> I have plenty of bar
[23:58] <Ebuntu> or willhost4food
[23:58] <MaMoUs> maskbandit: what u mean
[23:58] <zoidberg-> I remember seeing a picture of a hobo holding a sign saying "Will code for food" makes me chuckle
[23:58] <willwork4foo> lol
[23:58] <dragonriot> I hope someone here can help... I'm trying to make a USB Bootable Windows 7 Flash Drive, FROM Ubuntu 10.04... I know how to make an Ubuntu Flash Drive from Windows, but not the other way around... I need both accessible to me... Can anyone please help?
[23:58] <slidinghorn> !ot
[23:58] <willwork4foo> I used to have a tshirt from thinkgeek that said "Will Work For Foo"
[23:59] <dragonriot> and I've been googling that for about 2 hours, with no luck
[23:59] <indrora> dragonriot: You need a windows box.
[23:59] <nerdy_kid> slidinghorn its a context menu addon for dolphin, %F is the absolute filename of the file that i right click.  my problem is in the line echo "http:/71.184.255.53/%F" -- eg if %F is /home/jesse/test it would return "http:/IPADDRESS//home/jesse/test" which obviously wouuldnt work, i need it to return "http:/IPADDRESS/test"
[23:59] <Zelozelos> dragonriot there is a windows support channel, u may have luck in there
[23:59] <zoidberg-> Was that aimed at me slidinghorn ?
[23:59] <caio> exit
[23:59] <caio> sorry
[23:59] <wbf> hey guys.  anyone use launchpad?  or have knowledge in makefiles / the rules file?  i have a small question.
[23:59] <MaMoUs> dragonriot: u have the .iso file of windows 7 ?
[23:59] <zoidberg-> wbf: Just ask question, ofcourse people are in this channel.
[23:59] <dragonriot> wow... I need help doing something IN Ubuntu... not IN WINDOWS... yes, I have the Iso of Windows 7..
[23:59] <willwork4foo> dragonriot, yep, you really do. I had that same problem - in the end, I had to install the Windows 7 machine onto virtualbox, use it to create the bootable windows 7 USB stick
[23:59] <Aethnen> how do i find out what my sound daemon is?
[23:59] <dragonriot> MaMoUs: thank you for asking a valid question
