[06:51] <Darkness_Des> Forsooth! Another short question!
[06:52] <Darkness_Des> Is it possible to get the netbook launcher on the regular desktop edition?
[06:53] <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..
[06:54] <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)
[06:55] <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.
[06:56] <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 :)
[06:57] <Darkness_Des> Thank you!
[06:57] <Darkness_Des> Well, I'm going to test this out.
[06:57] <Darkness_Des> Cya.
[07:02] <Darkness_Des> FYI, It works perfectly.
[07:02] <Darkness_Des> Even got the themes that I worked so hard to perfect.
[07:03] <Darkness_Des> This launcher is pure genius.
[07:04] <ddecator> that was quick..
[07:27] <Ex-Opesa> Indeed.
[09:30] <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.

[15:17] <Silver_Fox_> Hello philinux ,  keeping well?  I am inclined to agree.  Idling is common.
[15:17] <Silver_Fox_> Hello Puck` , on the air today ? :)
[15:18] <philinux> Cheers yes
[15:18] <Puck`> Silver_Fox_: not today (: Working on a new backup system for a radio with richer features
[15:18] <Puck`> doing tests as we speak
[15:19] <Silver_Fox_> Fantastic.
[15:19] <Puck`> any new features on your google maps hack? (:
[15:20] <Silver_Fox_> Not at current,  I am trying to batch process images for the existing features
[15:20] <Silver_Fox_> I like to finish one thing off before moving onto another
[15:20] <Puck`> oh
[15:27] <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
[15:57] <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'
[16:29] <hobgoblin> duanedesign: do you know if it is available as a format option? and have you seen this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=801174

[16:47] <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
[16:50] <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
[16:54] <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
[16:55]  * 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
[16:56] <dairyman87> i found it!
[16:56] <dairyman87> it was in.gconf

[17:09] <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
[17:10] <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?

[17:15] <philinux> Hey i got some attention by chatting to website team
[17:18] <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?
[17:27] <hobgoblin> dairyman87: I've never used the plugin as I have no duplicates ...
[17:29] <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
[17:30] <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
[17:31] <dairyman87> but for some strange reason it doesnt show in the plugins
[17:31] <hobgoblin> I'll have a go then

[21:30] <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?
[21:33] <holstein> i would just mount it somewhere and look at it
[21:34] <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?
[21:35] <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
[21:36] <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
[21:37] <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
[21:38] <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?
[21:39] <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
[21:40] <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
[21:41] <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
[21:53] <jbthomson> @holstein thanks again for your help, was actually easier than I realised. All sorted now the way I want it.
[21:54] <holstein> jbthomson: cool
[22:11] <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?
[22:14] <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
[22:19] <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?
[22:22] <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.
[22:26] <vu1kan> phillw: woot! thx, worked like a charm, +2 karma for phil!
[22:28]  * phillw -1 for  not telling you to delete and re-add the ppa :p
[22:37] <bobo123> ohh.. irc channel with karma points! a must have!
[22:52] <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)
[22:53] <pedro3005> robot_, is the ALT button pressed?
[22:53] <robot_> nothing is pressed...
[22:54] <robot_> its just stuck in this mode for whatever reason
[22:55] <robot_> though holding down alt, seems to restore the normal mouse mode too
[22:55] <pedro3005> weird
[22:56] <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?
[23:07] <geirha> robot_: Could be the keyboard's just faulty
[23:08] <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
[23:09] <robot_> maybe it forced the alt or ctrl key to get locked?
[23:11] <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?
[23:31] <geirha> robot_: If possible, see if you can reproduce it with a different keyboard.
[23:34] <robot_> I have another ubuntu installation, but I dont want to risk getting that one stuck in the same mode
[23:37] <robot_> I guess I'll try restart the computer
[23:37] <robot_> again
[23:40] <robot_> geirha, when I go into guest mode the problem disappears
[23:40] <robot_> perhaps I can reset my user setting to default?
