| Darkness_Des | Forsooth! Another short question! | 06:51 |
| Darkness_Des | Is it possible to get the netbook launcher on the regular desktop edition? | 06:52 |
| stlsaint | what ide does the netbook use? | 06:53 |
| Darkness_Des | Very good question. | 06:53 |
| stlsaint | s/ide/de | 06:53 |
| Darkness_Des | Wai- Wha? | 06:53 |
| Darkness_Des | I don't have an actual physical netbook.... | 06:53 |
| ddecator | desktop environment | 06:53 |
| stlsaint | desktop environment | 06:53 |
| Darkness_Des | I'll look that up, hold on. | 06:53 |
| ddecator | i'm not sure there is a good way. there might be for unity through a ppa.. | 06:53 |
| stlsaint | Darkness_Des: i second ddecator im not sure its viable to get a single entity out of another os! | 06:54 |
| ddecator | you can install the netbook edition on a desktop though (afaik) | 06:54 |
| Darkness_Des | Would it be around the same lines as installing KDE or XFCE? I've done both before successfully. | 06:55 |
| Darkness_Des | WAIT! | 06:55 |
| Darkness_Des | IDEA! | 06:55 |
| Darkness_Des | Hold on... | 06:55 |
| Darkness_Des | Thanks for the alternate thought train there. | 06:55 |
| Darkness_Des | I can install it through aptitude the same way that I do with KDE on some systems. | 06:56 |
| Darkness_Des | Thank you very much! | 06:56 |
| ddecator | ...that works? | 06:56 |
| ddecator | what's the package? | 06:56 |
| Darkness_Des | "sudo aptitude install ubuntu-netbook" | 06:56 |
| Darkness_Des | That, in theory, should work. | 06:56 |
| ddecator | ...huh | 06:56 |
| ddecator | well, good luck :) | 06:56 |
| Darkness_Des | Thank you! | 06:57 |
| Darkness_Des | Well, I'm going to test this out. | 06:57 |
| Darkness_Des | Cya. | 06:57 |
| Darkness_Des | FYI, It works perfectly. | 07:02 |
| Darkness_Des | Even got the themes that I worked so hard to perfect. | 07:02 |
| Darkness_Des | This launcher is pure genius. | 07:03 |
| ddecator | that was quick.. | 07:04 |
| Ex-Opesa | Indeed. | 07:27 |
| tdn | I use Ubuntun 10.04 LTS with encrypted home dirs. I had to do some maintenance including swapping of two users' UIDs and GIDs. So I did a deluser on the users and a delgroup on the groups. Then I created the users and groups again with the corrects UIDs/GIDs. Then I chowned all the users' files under /home/$USER and /home/.ecryptfs/$USER. Then I reset password with passwd $USER. But now the users cannot log in, thus cannot decrypt their files. | 09:30 |

| Silver_Fox_ | What features are you working on Puck` ? | 15:27 |
| Puck` | Silver_Fox_: crossfading, easier scripting, I'm using liquidsoap, a pretty strong software | 15:27 |
| duanedesign | trying to use a script to make screencasts. The script uses ffmpeg. I receive an error "Unknown input format: 'x11grab' " http://paste.ubuntu.com/460239/ | 15:57 |
| duanedesign | even using the example in the man page " ffmpeg -f x11grab -s cif -i :0.0 ~/screencasts/out.mpg" I get the error Unknown input format: 'x11grab' | 15:57 |

| dairyman87 | hi, im new to ubuntu, im having a bit of a problem. i want to install a plugin for rhythmbox player that remove duplicate songs in the music library. but i have to extract it into the plugins folder. does anyone know how to navigate to the rhythmbox folder or any other program file folder just so i know in the future | 16:47 |
| dairyman87 | lol anyone? | 16:50 |
| Puck` | dairyman87: welcome to Ubuntu (: Just open up your home folder and press ALT+H and you'll see the hidden folders, you can then go to .rhythmbox i believe that's where the plugins folder is | 16:50 |
| dairyman87 | hey puck, i tried that. it shows .mozilla, .openoffice, .amsn, and couple of other programs but .rhythmbox isnt there. any ideas on where it could be? | 16:54 |
| dairyman87 | maybe i should be looking in another directory? | 16:54 |
| Puck` | dairyman87: try in .config | 16:54 |
| Puck` | or .gnome2, i'm not sure of the folder | 16:54 |
| * zkriesse will attempt to find it | 16:55 | |
| Puck` | i'm not ubuntu now, so i can't find it :\ | 16:55 |
| hobgoblin | hang on - I'll look | 16:55 |
| dairyman87 | i found it! | 16:56 |

| dairyman87 | i did something that probably is simple to fix. i uhh.. removed my network connections bar thingy from the panel by mistake and now i have no idea how to add it back | 17:09 |
| dairyman87 | lol | 17:09 |
| zkriesse | dairyman87: There will always be the feeling of not knowing it all....that's why ubuntu is so great to me..there's always more to learn | 17:09 |
| hobgoblin | dairyman87: right click panel - add to panel - notification area | 17:09 |
| philinux | Right click add to panel choose Indicator Applet | 17:09 |
| dairyman87 | yeah i like that! its a cool feeling | 17:09 |
| hobgoblin | or the one philinux said - be good to know which one actually works at the moment | 17:10 |
| dairyman87 | great that was simple | 17:10 |
| dairyman87 | thanks hobgoblin | 17:10 |
| hobgoblin | which was it ? notification or indicator applet? | 17:10 |

| dairyman87 | hey ppl i extracted the duplicates source into the plugins folder and restarted rhythmbox, but the duplicates are still there. am i doing something wrong? am i supposed to restart my computer or something? | 17:18 |
| hobgoblin | dairyman87: I've never used the plugin as I have no duplicates ... | 17:27 |
| hobgoblin | not even sure tbh if that actually works/does as it is supposed | 17:29 |
| hobgoblin | dairyman87: did you activate the plugin in the rhythmbox prefs ? | 17:29 |
| dairyman87 | it doesnt even show in the plugins list | 17:29 |
| dairyman87 | which is the annoying thing | 17:30 |
| dairyman87 | i checked the rhythmbox folder to make sure the duplicate source folder is there, and it is | 17:30 |
| dairyman87 | but for some strange reason it doesnt show in the plugins | 17:31 |

| dairyman87 | and in the rhythmbox folder i found plugins | 17:46 |
| dairyman87 | and thats where i extracted duplicates source to | 17:46 |
| hobgoblin | I know - you have to make the folder in gnome2 hence the create line philinux gave ^^ | 17:46 |

| jbthomson | Hi, looking for a bit of help with a dedicated remote server running Ubuntu 10.04. Have a second hard drive installed (yesterday) for backups, extra storage, etc, and I'm looking to list the files contained on the drive. How do I do it? | 21:30 |
| holstein | i would just mount it somewhere and look at it | 21:33 |
| holstein | did you add it to /etc/fstab ? | 21:34 |
| jbthomson | ok, the mount command is something I have been trying and I don't really understand it. Could you talk me through it? | 21:34 |
| jbthomson | and no, it was installed by the hosting company, so I'm not sure what changes they make viafstab | 21:35 |
| holstein | OH | 21:35 |
| holstein | i would look into that | 21:35 |
| holstein | what exactly you need to do | 21:35 |
| holstein | based on the hosting comapies set-up | 21:35 |
| holstein | bacially | 21:35 |
| holstein | basically* | 21:35 |
| holstein | you just mount the drive to a dir | 21:35 |
| holstein | i have one on my audio recording machine | 21:36 |
| jbthomson | a dir on the main drive? | 21:36 |
| holstein | a seperate HD that i track to | 21:36 |
| holstein | and i just created a dir | 21:36 |
| holstein | /home/name/audio | 21:36 |
| holstein | or something like that | 21:36 |
| holstein | and i use fstabe to have the HD mounted to that dir at boot | 21:37 |
| holstein | but you dont have to do it that way | 21:37 |
| jbthomson | ok...not really sure I understand how that works. I create a directory on hda1 and that becomes the mount point for sda1, then I edit fstab to auto mount sda1 to that directory at boot? | 21:38 |
| holstein | basically | 21:39 |
| jbthomson | ok | 21:39 |
| holstein | you can mount to any dir | 21:39 |
| holstein | if you add to fstab | 21:39 |
| holstein | it will just happen | 21:39 |
| holstein | and when you go to that dir | 21:39 |
| holstein | as far as you know, its a local dir | 21:39 |
| holstein | local, like on your main HD | 21:40 |
| jbthomson | ok that sounds pretty cool, and just what I am looking for. | 21:40 |
| holstein | you can mount network shares like that too though AFAIK | 21:40 |
| jbthomson | I think I understand what I need to do, I will try and maybe come back if I get stuck. Thanks for the help and clarification holstein. | 21:41 |
| holstein | sure | 21:41 |
| === compiledkernel is now known as Guest79855 | ||
| jbthomson | @holstein thanks again for your help, was actually easier than I realised. All sorted now the way I want it. | 21:53 |
| holstein | jbthomson: cool | 21:54 |
| vu1kan | I'm having a bit of trouble getting a ppa to resolve properly. I added it using <sudo add-apt-repository ppa:loell/ppa>, but the keyserver times out. Now that did add the line to my software sources, but when i <apt-get update>, it gives 404 Not Found. is this a serverside issue, or something i'm doing? | 22:11 |
| vu1kan | (btw, the rest of my repos resolve correctly, just not the ppa) | 22:14 |
| phillw | vu1kan: the ubuntu key server gets over loaded, you can re-add the key by following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/DocumentationHelp#Key%20Servers | 22:14 |
| vu1kan | phillw: thx, that got the key to resolve, now i need to get the ppa itself to resolve...maybe i should just download the .deb manually? | 22:19 |
| phillw | vu1kan: if you remove the ppa from your sources list, then re-add it, it should be all happy and smiling as it now has the key. | 22:22 |
| vu1kan | phillw: woot! thx, worked like a charm, +2 karma for phil! | 22:26 |
| * phillw -1 for not telling you to delete and re-add the ppa :p | 22:28 | |
| bobo123 | ohh.. irc channel with karma points! a must have! | 22:37 |
| robot_ | PLEAASE HELP =D, this might be stupid, but somehow I got my mouse into "drag" mode (perhaps this mode has a different name?), when i click on windows I cannot select text or click on buttons, I can only drag the entire window, when I hold the "ctrl" button it makes the mouse behave normally... how do I get out of this mode (restarting ubuntu does not help) | 22:52 |
| pedro3005 | robot_, is the ALT button pressed? | 22:53 |
| robot_ | nothing is pressed... | 22:53 |
| robot_ | its just stuck in this mode for whatever reason | 22:54 |
| robot_ | though holding down alt, seems to restore the normal mouse mode too | 22:55 |
| pedro3005 | weird | 22:55 |
| robot_ | perhaps something in the setting it causing either alt or ctrl to be locked? | 22:56 |
| robot_ | is there something I can do to reset the keyboard? | 22:56 |
| geirha | robot_: Could be the keyboard's just faulty | 23:07 |
| robot_ | it worked until I pressed some keys on the keyboard, on the left side | 23:08 |
| robot_ | I was trying to copy something, and pressed shift+ctrl at the sametime I think | 23:08 |
| robot_ | I think some combination of keys forced the the mouse to get stuck in the mode | 23:08 |
| robot_ | maybe it forced the alt or ctrl key to get locked? | 23:09 |
| robot_ | =( I dont want to reinstall ubuntu just to fix this | 23:11 |
| robot_ | is this some kind of reset of all settings I can force ubuntu to go under? | 23:11 |
| geirha | robot_: If possible, see if you can reproduce it with a different keyboard. | 23:31 |
| robot_ | I have another ubuntu installation, but I dont want to risk getting that one stuck in the same mode | 23:34 |
| robot_ | I guess I'll try restart the computer | 23:37 |
| robot_ | again | 23:37 |
| robot_ | geirha, when I go into guest mode the problem disappears | 23:40 |
| robot_ | perhaps I can reset my user setting to default? | 23:40 |
