macoaskhader: write up some heuristics for whats likely to be a password.. strings longer than 6 characters but shorter than 100...and you can get yourself a shortlist of potential passwords to then go in and try unlocking the encrypted disk.  if you're smart, you dd the disk to a clean one in case its got "lock up after 3 failed attempts" set, and then have fun00:03

ShawnRiskI am at the desktop now, trying to figure out things01:05
nejodeShawnRisk, where does it hang?01:06
actionParsnipShawnRisk: all good fun :)01:07
nat682dewgong, the driver that comes with your sound card is almost always for windoze only. linux should automatically have a driver that will work01:07
Dewgongnat682, Next step, how do I find/install that driver?01:07
nat682oka - is that supposed to be a file in my home directory? it doesn't exist on mine01:07
actionParsnipnat682: put it in the startup items, you can make it run any command or script you wish01:07
actionParsnipnat682: system -> preferences -> startup items01:08
nat682I want to be able to configure this with a CLI01:08
ShawnRisknejode: it isn't hanging just taking forever to load and now I am on the desktop01:09
actionParsnipnat682: you can make a .deskop file to run the command and symlink it in ~/.config/autostart01:10
actionParsnipnat682: or simply put the .desktop in the folder01:10
actionParsnipnat682: kde uses ~/.kde/Autorun01:10
poyntzis it true that linux has a larger market share than Mac OS X?01:10
nat682actionParsnip: what is a .desktop? what do I do? I am using GNOME01:10
ShawnRiskxangua: when I tried the control+atl+t it didn't work out.01:10

lfaraoneI was using my computer typing in a IM window, when suddenly my USB keyboard froze. the numlock etc keys wouldn't toggle, but the computer still functioned otherwise (I can ssh in and the clock still updates on the systray). I checked, and it seems that no USB devices are working. `lsusb' hangs, and I saw this in syslog: http://sprunge.us/WiMX. Is this a kernel bug, or probably just quirky hardware?01:12
steveno cool01:12
poyntznat682: if you want to maximise the effectiveness of your hardware and control over your computer, yes linux is the best01:13
xanguaShawnRisk: what version are you using¿01:13
bastidrazorblain: good thing your advice is pointless and invalid01:13
steveniv been having issues with nick server and wanted to make shure i was really in01:13
poyntznat682: if you want compatibility with external devices, linux aint that great01:13
lfaraonepoyntz, nat682, depends on the external device.01:13
nat682poyntz: there is absolutely nothing you can do with windoze or mac that you can't do with linux01:13
nat682poyntz: except see a BSOD, which is a good thing01:14
ShawnRiskbastidrazor: that didn't work out01:14
poyntznat682: ok. i'll take your argument further. you can do as much with any OS as any other OS01:14
poyntznat682: i'm talking about linux straight out of the box01:14
bastidrazorShawnRisk: you're trying to open a 2nd terminal while in gnome-terminal?01:14
ShawnRiskxangua: I am using the latest public version of ubuntu01:14

Out_Coldya i was thinking that... just mv'n it04:43
teamcoltraI keep getting all these issues with dependancies04:44
cheater99hey guys04:44
teamcoltrabut I can't figure out what is going wrong04:44
Out_Coldhey cheater9904:44
Out_Coldteamcoltra, compiling?04:44
cheater99i think there's a problem with one of the kernel drivers in ubuntu, how would i find the list of changes from 9.04 to 10.04?04:44
macocheater99: for the kernel youll need to just check the upstream kernel changelog04:44
SerenaTactually, thats not gonna work because it isnt desktop customization thats messed up here.  i just created a new test user who had the same top panel problems (greyed out options to lock things and move them)04:44
teamcoltraI am getting errors in terminal when I am trying to install stuff, or do system updates like: dpkg: error processing libvcdinfo0 (--configure): dependency problems - leaving unconfigured04:45
macocheater99: for 2.6.31 to 2.6.3204:45
cheater99maco: i don't know what that means04:45
macocheater99: kernel.org04:45
cheater99let me have a look04:45
=== nmartin is now known as paco867
cheater99maco: but that's not the kernel itself, it's a LLKM04:45
cheater99kernel module, .ko04:45
teamcoltraand at the bottom of the output it says "errors were encountered while processing: libavuitil49 (etc etc... they are all starting with "lib")04:45
macocheater99: they dont have separate changelogs04:47
macocheater99: the kernel is a single codebase04:47
cheater99maco: oh ok04:47
cheater99maco: my problem is wht the synaptics_i2c driver04:47
Out_Coldugh.. mv'n the file has just made more errors in other files..04:47
Polarexhi why the mouse pointer on ubuntu 10.4 does not change when you chose another pointer04:47
macocheater99:  could it also be with xserver-xorg-input-synaptics ?04:47
cheater99maco: no, i don't think so04:48
Out_Coldi guess now is a good time to back up :(04:48
nitstormhow do u check if a particular package is installed? i want to check if i have dchroot and debootstrap packages installed.. thanks04:48
cheater99maco: from what i understand, the synaptics kernel driver exposes /dev/input/eventN and /dev/input/mouseX  for some N and X04:48
cheater99maco: the Xorg module reads off those devices04:49
cheater99maco: but the dev's are silent.04:49
gdb_nitstorm: dpkg -l name_of_package, or if unsure of the exact name, dpkg -l | grep something_you_remember04:49
cheater99maco: in contrast, the dev's for my usb mouse work.04:49
macocheater99: ah. well best file a bug with "ubuntu-bug linux" then04:49
prince_jammysnitstorm: dpkg -l dchroot  will show 'ii' in the first column if it's installed. alternatively,  ''apt-cache policy dchroot''04:49
nitstormthanks gdb_04:49
gdb_An ii at the start of the line = installed04:49
=== gdb_ is now known as gdb
nitstormthanks prince_jammys04:50
Blazentoxangua, thanks. i added the notification area to the panel and now i see my wireless icon... though it still is not connecting to the internet04:50
gdbSure thing04:50
prince_jammysnitstorm: welcome.04:50
cheater99maco: there's a gentoo wiki entry that says if they're silent, either the module is not loaded or the dev is wrong. but the dev isn't wrong and the module is loaded (checked by lsmod) and the only conclusion is that the kernel module is broken.04:50
bconnorhello04:51

Gerwinbconnor: Fasten your seatbelts, hope you enjoy your stay04:52
cheater99maco: why would i be looking at 2.6.31->2.6.32? wasn't the kernel a bit older than that in 9.04?04:53
cliffbonjour :)04:53
Gryllidabconnor: waarm welcomes. enjoy your stay!04:53
macocheater99: oh i thought you said 9.1004:53
cheater99nah 9.0404:53
cheater99:)04:53
* DELUCAEC slaps _GoRDoN_ around a bit with a large trout04:53
macocheater99: for 9.04 then i think its 2.6.2804:53
* DELUCAEC slaps Gerwin around a bit with a large trout04:54
cheater99i think so too04:54
bazhangDELUCAEC, wrong channel for that04:54
macocheater99: try with 9.10 and at least you'll have a point to know where it broke04:54
GryllidaDELUCAEC, please take it somewhere else04:54

cheater99maco: that would be a 'kernel config' bug, no?04:56
Gerwincliff: VLC runs on Linux04:56
macocheater99: could be a kernel code bug too...04:56
cheater99there's no 'kernel code' option.04:56
macocheater99: "linux" is the package. is it asking questions?04:57
cliffit's an executable file04:57
cliffhwo do i run it ?04:57
cheater99yes. it's a wizard.04:57
cheater99try it yourself.04:57

tripelbyou mean what is the filename Gryllida ?  something with BM in the middle of ti. _jesse_ If I knew how I wouldnt ask. I think the filemane would be *BM* or *BM*.htm it's my saved bookmark file from chrome. But I need to look in all the directories. How to do that. I know it's some -d or something. like ls / -d |grep *BM*.*   or is it?  (the / would start it in /  --- maybe it's -r or -s... it's too complex for me. I infoed locate and I cant05:19
tripelb understand it.05:19
_jesse_nitstorm: if you do that it's usually good to redirect stdout and strerr to a file05:19
maco_jesse_: no need05:20
luckytux_codebrainz, i tried renaming the whole folder giving me problems... i thought it worked for a sec... then it told me it was missing the folder and i should dpkg --configure -a lol05:20
_jesse_maco: but what if you want that info?05:20

codebrainzsoadkombucha, conexant iirc05:26
soadkombuchacodebrainz: Ahh. realtek has proprietary drivers that are source only05:27
hdpbsoadkombucha: it's a riptide modem/sound deal w/ a conexant chipset05:27
soadkombuchacodebrainz: Never seen conexant drivers05:27
* Blue1 has no clue what rtai is.05:27
codebrainzme either soadkombucha05:27
soadkombuchaTried doing that on an old computer with conexant couldn't find anything05:27

jeffmrMaRk-I, thanks05:34
Gerwinhdpb: They aren't soundcards ;)05:34
Blue1codebrainz: turtle beach = cirrus logic - those cards work horribly with ubuntu05:34
hdpbnext question - assuming I get sound - how do i wipe xp and make it her new home location?05:35
codebrainzConker, not sure about boot from nfs, but if you do a tftp boot or whatever and then mount the nfs as root, it might work05:35
jeffmrMaRk-I, If I am in a channel and it says I can't send to it but I can see everybody else's posts, what does that mean?05:35
vengeranyone ran into this input device bug here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/582201 ?  I used sudo X -configure to generate a basic config and after adding "Option "AutoAddDevices" "False" to it my mouse is working again but not the keyboard.  IIRC when i updated back in june it had broke, just hadn't had time to work on it05:35
prince_jammysjeffmr: likely that you need to register your nick.05:35
Blue1jeffmr: it means you don't have voice, and that question should be asked in an offtopic room05:35
MaRk-Ijeffmr: some rooms are "voiced" and you have either wait your turn or someone give you voice05:36
jeffmrI see05:36
jeffmrI think my nick is registered its on the freenode network05:36
jeffmrI asked the admin, but haven't gotten an answer05:36
Conkercodebrainz: yeah thats no problem getting it TO boot but the thing i havent tried is booting multiple computers off the same read/write NFS05:37
jeffmrthanks05:37
Conkerit would have to be configured for dhcp of course05:37
codebrainzConker, it shouldn't matter, especially if it's different users05:37
Conkercodebrainz: yeah ok, good05:37
codebrainzConker, i believe there is an Ubuntu doc on just this thing (no link)05:38

macoandre_: of course05:44
_jesse_the_flying_os: that works for me05:44
s3r3n1t7racecar, i think you are talking about the RT kernel, which should have no effect on the wireless card.05:44
MaRk-ISupermatt1000: try these settings http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/PiWqEGqL05:44
macoandre_: but that has nothing to do with ubuntu technical support05:44
the_flying_osdoesnt work for me. says that i dont have that package05:44
macoandre_: so i dont see why you're asking05:44
_jesse_the_flying_os: open up synaptic and see if you can find it05:44
_jesse_the_flying_os: I just ran it with -s though and it found it alright05:44

Gryllidakayleen, welcome to linux! what are you trying to do this time? download something?06:55

kayleenjust games and i tried installing a anti virus and it wouldnt let me i cant figure out how to install or download the only thing it let me install was abobe flash player06:57
babu__kitty_: k...where i have to give this dial prefix in wvdial conf06:57
bribroderSteveThing, that jaunty module definitely used to exist, that's how I got it working before06:57
SteveThingbribroder, talk to me in PM please06:58
mitchbonesI am installing ubuntu for first time. I have a Intel Core i7. When I choose to download the 64-bit version the file is "10.04-desktop-amd64" I'm assuming that is for a AMD processor. I found the link to alternative downloads, not sure which one is right for me.06:58
ActionParsniphow-do06:59
MaRk-Ikayleen: go to software center and look in the games section, antivirus well not really need one "yet", and you just can't install programs or executables like you're used to in windows06:59
babu__kitty_: r u there07:01
kayleenokay thank u07:02
thune3mitchbones: amd64 is the right one for 64-bit (it just refers to the 64-bit x86 instructions which were developed by AMD). The benefits of x64 bit are very minor and there are a few extra potential headaches. I would recommend regular 32-bit for a new user (and most users actually)07:03
SteveThingwhy is it Rythymbox on 10.04 wipes all music on my Ipod Nano?07:03
SteveThingwhen i sync07:03
mitchbonesthune3, tyvm!07:03
kitty_babu__: Phone = *99#07:04
adamr41SteveThing: I'd just assume that since that music isn't authorized to play on rythmbox, that It cannot be added back to your library, so Rythmbox replaces it with its own data, which is probably nothing at this time.07:05
Roy_Hi all guys, and good W.E.07:05
SteveThingadamr41, odd. I don't have any music from iTunes store in my library07:05
adamr41SteveThing: what about on your nano?07:06
SteveThingadamr41, same deal07:06

crab234for example, I'd like to search for packages containing both the words "chm" and "viewer" in apt-cache search07:08

abhi_nav!ufw | Roy_07:08
ubottuRoy_: Ubuntu, like any other Linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW | An alternative to ufw is the 'iptables' command - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo | GUI frontends such as Firestarter/Gufw (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE) also exist.07:08

PvtManiacHi. I'm having a few issues removing a package from my system. apt-get remove, apt-get autoremove and apt-get purge do not seem to be able to remove the package.07:10
Roy_@all thanks! I don't need firewall but I studing a guide for linux and this time is time for firewall. 8-)07:10
icerootPvtManiac: what package, what output?07:10
ActionParsnipPvtManiac: can you use a pastebin to give the outputs and the command you have tried07:10
PvtManiacActionParsnip, Sure. One moment07:10
icerootRoy_: if you are study firewalls, dont use ufw, use iptables07:10

Roy_<iceroot thanks for info! 8-)07:11
PvtManiachttp://interwebs.pastebin.org/38815307:11
SteveThingmost distros have a purpose... I.E. lightweight, penetration testing, clustering, etc..07:11
ActionParsnipSteveThing: to give a simple platform for users to approach Linux from07:11

ubottuRoy_, please see my private message07:12

SteveThingActionParsnip, then why is it so difficult to use for a newbie? (you name rox btw)07:12
abhi_navRoy_, welcome :)07:12
ActionParsnipSteveThing: (thanks), its hard because its a new OS with a completely different setup but Ubuntu aims to make the transition as nice as possible but you can't please them all07:13
icerootSteveThing: have a look at other distris so see that ubuntu is easy07:13
etyrnalwhat causes group tp change on an nfs-mounted sharepoint?07:13
ActionParsnipiceroot: i'd say a lot of others are equally easy, ubuntu just seems to make the most noise07:13
ActionParsnipetyrnal: mount options07:14
bribroderI think ubuntu positions itself in particular as a windows-alternative distribution07:14
SteveThingActionParsnip/iceroot, Ubuntu has been out for quite some time now. and I have looked at other distros. they all have similar issues... nothing works out of the box without major command line tweaking07:14
etyrnalActionParsnip, if i show You the line from the sfatb, might You be able to offer some advice?07:14
icerootActionParsnip: the others dont have nice tools  for installing restricted things, mostly the dont have a metapackage, also they are using old software (lenny)07:14

disappearedng_Hey how compatible is mac book pro for ubuntu?07:15
ActionParsnipiceroot: depends no the distro, gentoo has some awesomeness and emerge is great07:15
thune3PvtManiac: assuming you have sudo privleges in the shell, does usr/share/openqrm/etc/openqrm-server.conf exist or have funky permissions?07:15
SteveThingActionParsnip, agreed07:15
babu__kitty_: it asks for username and password....but both are empty....wat should i give07:15
ActionParsnipetyrnal: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/mountwindows07:15
PvtManiaciceroot, thune3, I've checked that already. The file does not exist.07:15
icerootActionParsnip: i dont think a "newbie" want a rolling release distri basd on source-code07:15
etyrnalActionParsnip, thanks will check07:16
ActionParsnipiceroot: its just a different way to manage a distro, suse and mandriva are also as easy imho07:16
icerootPvtManiac: sudo touch /usr/share/openqrm/etc/openqrm-server.conf && sudo apt-get remove --purge openqrm07:16
PvtManiaciceroot, touch: cannot touch `/usr/share/openqrm/etc/openqrm-server.conf': No such file or directory07:16
SteveThingActionParsnip/iceroot, I've had issues with Asus netbooks, Dell Optiplex towers, and my gaming rig. hardware varying from well-established to archaic.07:17
icerootActionParsnip: apt-get > yast07:17
babu__kitty_: pls reply07:17
etyrnalActionParsnip, maybe has to do with suid flag07:17
SteveThingiceroot, truth07:17
ActionParsnipiceroot: al works equally fine here07:17
SteveThingActionParsnip, have you tried a distro upgrade from yast... total PITA if something doesn't mix well07:17
ActionParsnipSteveThing: i always buy 100% compatible hardware and havent had a single issue07:17
ActionParsnipSteveThing: my computer use is very basic, chat and browse o I get few issues07:18
icerootSteveThing: normally asus stuff is the best you can get for linux, they have also linux drivers for most of there things07:18
ActionParsnipso*07:18
mneptokSteveThing: general Linux kernel hardware support is somewhat offtopic.07:18
SteveThingActionParsnip, tha defeats the purpose of Ubuntu, doesn't it? It should be a working OS for "any user" with "any modern hardware"07:18
ActionParsnipSteveThing: i use xpud mostly these days, super fast and light07:18
etyrnalActionParsnip, You directed me to NTFS, i was asking about nfs -- definitly not the same07:19
ActionParsnipSteveThing: true but i avoid issues by buying smart07:19
ActionParsnipetyrnal: oh, sorry. my bad07:19
icerootPvtManiac: sudo mkdir -p /usr/share/openqrm/etc && sudo touch /usr/share/openqrm/etc/openqrm-server.conf && sudo apt-get remove --purge openqrm07:19
SteveThingmneptok, sorry... just get annoyed with Ubuntu.. didn't mean to cross the distro/base gray line07:19
PvtManiaciceroot, that somewhat worked, got past the file does not exist error. Now it's just complaining about a bin file that cannot be executed07:19
bullgardHow can I import bookmarks from Firefox 3.6.6. to Epiphany 2.30.2?07:20
icerootPvtManiac: i cant guess error messages, so use pastebin07:20
ActionParsnipSteveThing: i find it a lot bloated but i guess its to appeal to most users and be compatible with a lot of hardware out of the box07:20
mneptokSteveThing: get annoyed with hardware manufacturers that do not release specs and do not release Linux drivers. and discuss that annoyance in #ubuntu-offtopic.07:20
PvtManiaciceroot, right, I was about to. Question though, it was not a successful install anywho, is it possible to just remove it from a package list somewhere?07:20
ennuihow would one "rerun" ./configure for a source code that is already installed? I'm trying to avoid doing a fresh install of mplayer. but i need it to recognize the x264 codex07:21
icerootActionParsnip: you have distris which dont want to use nonfree firmware, nonfree drivers and so on (debian) so its hard for beginners to get hardware working, ubuntu doesnt care much about that "everything has to be free"07:21
bribroderanyone know why you can07:21
bribroderanyone know why you can't just dd if=ubuntu.iso of=/dev/sdb to create a usb live cd from an iso?07:21
icerootPvtManiac: its not a good idea to maipulate that database07:21

S37RigorMortisHi indian09:32
S37RigorMortisI have a file server that sits behind a firewall that only allows outbound connections, and I happen to have a friend with an Ubuntu server that allows any connections09:32
S37RigorMortisand I'd like to arrange it so I connect my fileserver to his, then ssh into mine from the outside world through his09:33
S37RigorMortisbut I've never tried this09:33

Dr_Willisraven_:  that is weird then.  Even weidre that its still 'hdb' and not sdb10:22
votTone ?10:22
Dr_Willisbihari:  so xterm is working. gnome-terminal seems broken.10:22
bihariDr_Willis,  ? then?10:22
raven_Dr_Willis, three ide drives10:22
bihariyah10:22
Dr_Willisbihari:  try making a new user. see if the issue affexts them also.10:22
biharihow? to make a new user?10:22
Dr_Willisbihari:  'sudo adduser billgates'   :)  then see if you canlogin as billgates and see his gnome-terminal is also broken10:23
wildbatvot, inspire me if you can get win7 bootloader to load grub2 in a non-ntfs partition10:23
oCean_Dr_Willis: I pointed this out to https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-terminal/+question/60506, However, I don't know how he can change that setting as he is unable to start terminal...10:23
Dr_Willisif 'billgates' works -  then that shows that its some sort of gnome setting for your other user thast is the problem10:23
votwildbat, your just dumping the grub mbr10:24
votthats it10:24
votit loads the vista bootloader then chainloads the normal grub mbr10:24
votyou see the grub menu just like it booted normally10:24
biharinop same issue10:24
bihariDr_Willis, same issue i made a new user but stil when i open gnome-terminal10:25
biharinuthing happen10:25
Dr_Willisbihari:  start a xterm, run 'gnome-terminal' and look for error messages perhaps.10:26
panda599Dr_Willis it run well, thanks ;)10:26
Dr_Willisbihari:  sounds like some system wyde gnome setting/file is messed up10:26
Dr_Willispanda599:  you must of totally overlooked that first bootup. where there was a popup message about  the video drivers.10:27
bihariDr_Willis, well terminal is working if  i am login through my other user acount that just now i made10:27
Dr_Willispanda599:  installing nvidia druives is the first thing i do on a new install.10:27
Dr_Willisbihari:  Huh?10:27
oCean_bihari: Dr_Willis So I found where your personal settings (for gnome-terminal) are: ~/.gconf/apps/gnome-terminal/profiles/Default. If you changed preferences it should be there10:27
panda599Dr_Willis ok i see ;) thanks ;)10:28

Dr_Willisbihari:  perhaps delete the problem users gnome-terminal settings files at -- ~/.gconf/apps/gnome-terminal/profiles/Default10:29
bihari?10:30
oCean_bihari: or copy the ones for billgates into yours10:30
Dr_Willisbihari:  login as problem, user.. open xterm. delete the gnome-terminal problem configs..10:30

bihariman what to do?10:30
Dr_Willisor you could do it as root from any user. :)10:30
bihariso many instruction :-s10:31
biharitell me one by one10:31
Dr_Williswe said what to do.. they all say to do the same thing..10:31
bihari:p10:31
Dr_Willisunder problem users account --> delete ~/.gconf/apps/gnome-terminal/profiles/Default10:31
Dr_Willissudo rm /home/PROBLEMUSERNAME/.gconf/apps/gnome-terminal/profiles/Default                     should delete it.10:32

Dr_Willissudo rm -r /home/PROBLEMUSERNAME/.gconf/apps/gnome-terminal/profiles/Default                     should delete it.10:32
Dr_Willisbihari:  or login as your user. and use the normal gui file manager to delete the directory/files10:33
rebirthyay, i used a new disc and burned at the slowest speed and it completed10:34
Dr_Willisassuming thats the right dirctory. Gnome has too many settings getting scattered about.10:34
AraneidaeCan I get automounting to work while I'm *not* running the Gnome desktop?10:35
Dr_WillisAraneidae:  what desktop are you running?10:36
Araneidaefluxbox, pretty bare10:36
Dr_WillisAraneidae:  ive noticed that if i run 'nautilus --no-desktop' under icewm or other window managers - nautilus can do the automounting10:36
Dr_WillisAraneidae:  not sure of other ways to get it going. :)10:36
=== donar is now known as tehut
AraneidaeThat sounds promising.  I'm very surprised that automount is integrated into the desktop!10:36
AraneidaeDefinitely belongs as a lower level daemon IMO10:37
Dr_WillisAraneidae:  its part of some gnoem serveices  i recall.10:37
AraneidaeSo it would seem...10:37
Dr_Willisthere are some lower level automounting tools.. but then you may lose some of your 'desktop user centered' features10:37
AraneidaeI don't think I *have* any desktop features (except for my fluxbox hotkeys and core window management)10:37
bihari sudo rm -r /home/PROBLEMUSERNAME/.gconf/apps/gnome-terminal/profiles/Defaul10:38
biharisays no suck file or directory10:38
Dr_Willisbihari:  you do undersatnd that you want to replace 'PROBLEMUSERNAME' with the name of your Problem user?10:38
Dr_Willisbihari:   when in doubt 'think' about what you are doing. :) not just doing things blindly.10:38
bihari? so what shud i do?10:39
sweetpialso your missing a "t" from Default10:39
Dr_Willisbihari:  You should replace PROBLEMUSERNAME  with tjhe name of your user having the problem user...10:39
Lord_DeviAraneidae: What your looking for is 'autofs'10:39
Dr_Willisrather logical? :)10:39
AraneidaeDr_Willis, do you know of a description of how Linux automounting works?  It seems both tangled and in constant flux at the moment!10:39

Dr_Willisbihari:  OR login as the user with the problem and use the command (from a xterm) --> 'rm -rf .gconf/apps/gnome-terminal/10:39

AraneidaeLord_Devi, like this: http://www.linux-consulting.com/Amd_AutoFS/autofs.html ?  Ta :)10:40
Lord_DeviAraneidae, It can auto mount cdroms, usb, and remote file systems10:40
Lord_DeviTaking a look10:40
AraneidaeThat's an *old* document. Huh.10:40
Dr_WillisAraneidae:   theres dozens of automounting things that have poped up over the years. gnomes way is thelatest in a long line of them10:40
Dr_WillisAraneidae:  there is no 'linux' automounting. :) its just yet another service you use on linux10:41
AraneidaeYea.  And they keep changing the underlying hotplug mechanism10:41
AraneidaeIs udev in or out these days?  I've completely lost track10:41
Dr_WillisAraneidae:   Trust me - you do not want to go  back to the old old old ways. :)10:41
Dr_WillisAraneidae:  i cant recall either. :) HAL id being replaced by somthing else now10:41
Dr_Willisudev was befor HAl wasent it?10:41
AraneidaeWell, I've had success with mdev on busybox, but that's a completely different animal.10:42
Lord_DeviAraneidae, Yeah taht's what your looking for. You could ask for a better guide though ;)10:42
AraneidaeAnyhow, about to dig into autofs, I see it's a proper Ubuntu package, with the official logo on i10:42
Dr_WillisStarting with Ubuntu 10.04, HAL has been removed and is no longer involved10:42
AraneidaeSomething else I don't understand: I've got half a dozen fuse mount points in /tmp (all mounting the same .iso, as it happens) left behind by a program I ran the other day.10:43
=== grouch is now known as Guest93250
AraneidaeHowever, if I try `umount /dev/loop0` it tells me to be root10:44
om26ersounds like a bug10:44
AraneidaeSo as an ordinary user how am I supposed to unmount my fuse points?10:44
Dr_Willisfuse tools have their own tools for that i thouight10:44
=== Cain` is now known as Cain
AraneidaeAh, could well be.  Never opened the fuse box10:45
Dr_Willisdoes 'mount' show them as still mounted?10:45

bihari sudo rm -r /home/roo0t/.gconf/apps/gnome-terminal/profiles/Default10:45
Dr_Willis stuff in /tmp/ may just need tobe deleted. not unmounte10:45
AraneidaeYeah10:45
biharii used this10:45

Dr_Willisbihari:  shall we all slap you now? :)10:45
bihariwhy?10:46
Araneidaeconfusing name, that's all10:46
Dr_Willisbihari:  use the TAB key to complete filename/paths  so yoy dont have any typos10:46
biharifor example?10:46
Dr_Willisbihari:  you can login as your roo0t user and use the shorter command i pasted earlier.. and not need sudo at all10:46
Dr_Willis!tab | bihari10:46
ubottubihari: You can use your <tab> key for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line.10:46
biharii am just 18 yer old oki i dont know much about linux :(10:46
Dr_Willis rm /path/to/<TAB>   shows a list of names...10:47
Araneidaebihari,  for example if you type: ls /home/roo0<tab> it will complete to /home/roo0t/10:47
yessir_turanHello people, sometimes evince thumbnailer takes 100% for me. can somebody tell me how to block it from running.10:47
Dr_Willisbihari:  OR login as the user with the problem and use the command (from a xterm) --> 'rm -rf .gconf/apps/gnome-terminal/'10:47
AraneidaeActually, /home/r<tab> will probably complete to /home/roo0t , depending on your other users10:47
Lord_DeviAraneidae, http://www.linux-consulting.com/Amd_AutoFS/autofs-5.html#ss5.3 Is a pretty good autofs guide there..10:48
bihariso what to type now ? in xtrem terminal?10:48
Dr_WillisAraneidae:  at least they fixed the bug where you could actually make your initial user be named 'root' wich was proberly what he would of used.. if he was able to. :)10:48
AraneidaeLord_Devi, thanks very much.  Sigh.  Yet another tool to learn :(10:48
Dr_Willisbihari: login as your roo0t user and use the shorter command i pasted earlier.. and not need sudo at all10:49
yessir_turanSorry to repeat, but this seems a busy channel, so will have to repeat, evince-thumbnailer is taking 100%, how to disable it.10:49
AraneidaeThe tiresome thing about being a developer is just how many damned different tools you have to learn!10:49

Araneidaebihari, you need to refrain from using sudo in most of your experiments ... unless you don't mind reinstalling ;)11:17

MaRk-Ibihari: a k11:19
votkde vs gnome11:19
shaunobihari: kubuntu comes with extra k11:19
biharireally?11:19
Dr_WillisKDE = Kubuntu, Gnome - ubuntu11:19
MaRk-Ibihari: ubuntu = gnome desktop, kubuntu=kde11:19
Dr_Willislubuntu - lxde, xubuntu = XFCE11:19
Dr_Willismythbuntu - MythTV setup :)11:19
voti want a tubuntu11:20
Dr_Willisand i forget the others out there.11:20
bihariwhy so much small differece11:20
Araneidaet?11:20
votwhere they just dont put x in the install :P11:20
Dr_Willisbihari:  because its not a 'small' differance11:20
vot;)11:20
AraneidaeYeah.  I run Debian on my network server (headless)11:20
Dr_Willistheres also the underlieing goal of having the whole  thing fit on a 700mb cd.11:21
bihariwhat about debian?i think ubuntu is the part of debian11:21
AraneidaeThe other advantage of Debian stable is that it really *is* stable11:21
Dr_Willisbihari:  its not part of debian.11:21
biharithen?11:21
Dr_Willisbihari:  its 'related' to debian.11:21
Araneidaebihari, don't say that, the Debian people will kill you11:21
AraneidaeYou could say Ubuntu is a "child" of Debian in a way11:21
lg188i got soem trouble with my audio devices11:21
shaunobihari: the guys that started ubuntu realised that debian's system is actually pretty decent.  so adopted as much of it as made sense11:22
biharii think debian is more complicated? then ubuntu11:22
Dr_Willisbihari:  i think you need to go learn some more linux basics. :)11:22
lg188my microphone is f-up11:22
AraneidaeDebian is ... yes, less beginner oriented11:22
bihariyes Dr_Willis  give me some link11:22
sweetpihttp://www.google.com/ - just putting it out there11:22
AraneidaeActually, to be frank, the #debian channels are pretty non expert hostile11:22
Dr_Willisbihari:  once you learn the 'fundamentals' of linux. debian vs ubuntu - boils down to  just a few differances. :)11:23

Lord_DeviAraneidae, However, Ubuntu's documentation is really bad. The forums aren't so great either.11:26

Dr_WillisI find that people dont even bother to read teh docs. when they do exist.11:26
Dr_WillisOr they post a question to the forums - instead of searching and finding the question/answer alleady asked..11:27

Dr_Willisunimatrix:  configure what part of it?11:44

AraneidaeCompare with the ATI Radeon driver and the difference is startling11:45
unimatrixDr_Willis just the boot order... mpd is booting before pulseaudio, and it needs to be the other way around11:45

spikynicofs: Is it worth uninstalling then setting it up again12:56
LjLbasncy: strings in C must always be null-terminated. you can do that by adding '\0' as the last element of the string, or by just defining it as string="hello" (then the compiler will add a null automatically)12:56
aliasdbihari, did you properly shut down your computer last time you rebooted it?12:56

basncyLjL, as you say,if i define str3 like char str3[]={'h','e','l','l','o'};then call function strlen may go wrong?12:58
bergLNXAny quick way to enable and disable ipv6 here in Ubuntu?12:59
geirhabasncy: strlen doesn't know how long you made str3. It'll keep going until it finds a \012:59
LjLbasncy: yes. strlen will scan the string until it detects a null character; since you didn't put one there, it may go on "forever" (until it either meets a null by chance, or hits a portion of memory that it's not allowed to access, and crashes)12:59

hyliangot a strange problem, ubuntu gave me an error message, my ntfs drive wont mount. i checked, that drive works perfect. i used disk utility and it says "disk not clean", and when i try to mount it it says code 1: helper failed with:14:19
hylianmount: according to mtab, /dev/sda1 is already mounted on /14:19
hylianmount failed14:19
daniel2171NightKhaos: yea14:19
linxehjpds: I don't doubt they have :) I've had hardware failures on many of the servers in that list and had to deal with the various support teams - it's painful14:19
Johndoe321ocatacoo: you can wipe the / in windows and keep the /boot with grub214:19
slacker-thanks guys14:19
Dupperthat should do it...14:19
DupperAlmost.14:19
linxehjpds: still, it is better than it used to be at least14:19
oCean_Dupper: can you stop testing in this channel?14:19

hylianmount: according to mtab, /dev/sda1 is already mounted on /14:25
hylianmount failed - basically my ntfs drive wont mount14:25
ocatacooJohnDoe321: what are you saying?14:25
fanoh, i'll go , buy14:25
Johndoe321hylian: oh, install gparted and check the partition's health/status14:25
MaRk-Iasanka: oh ok, hmm no idea14:25
oCean_daniel2171: there are several issues mentioned on launchpad regarding resume.14:25
hylianjohndoe321 ahead of the game, checked healthy status. 2 os's both say 100% healthy14:26
daniel2171oCean_:how can i fix it?14:26
Johndoe321hylian: try mount -f (force)?14:26
asankain /proc/acpi  it says that BAT1 Present : no14:26
hylianjohndoe321 that does work, but when i reboot i am back to square one.14:26
oCean_daniel2171: what I mean is that it could be a bug (maybe even one they're currently working on, or already a patch provided) Search  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu14:27
asankaMaRk-I : in /proc/acpi  it says that BAT1 Present : no14:27
Johndoe321hylian: well, thats drained all suggestions, at least thats a temp workaround, maybe cron a script that forces mount?14:27
ocatacoo*JohnDoe321 , are you saying that if its installed in windows14:28
hylianjohndoe321 thanx. i know this is ubuntu's error though. hmm. pclinuoxos 2010 is installed on that drive and boots with perfection. same drive. and has full access to the ntfs partition. cant figure it out.14:29
Johndoe321orcatacoo: no, even if its not, as long as you don't remove /boot with grub2, u can remove all other folders from windows with an ext2/3 reader14:29
d3javuheh, it is funny that i'm able to play .ogv files from command prompt mplayer but not mplayer-gui.14:29

bergLNXHi, I was told to enable "lucid-proposed" repository, but I can't find it. I know where and how to add repositories...14:33
oCean_Johndoe321: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WubiGuide#Uninstallation14:33
MaRk-IJohndoe321: I dont have a link at the moment, but usually just do an fix mbr with the windows install disk to remove grub then just delete the partitions14:33
oCean_ow, wait14:33
Johndoe321oCean_: thanks14:33
geirhabergLNX: System -> Admin. -> Software Sources -> [Updates]14:34
oCean_Johndoe321: well, I'm not sure if I understood you. The link is for removing Wubi (the ubuntu installer on windows)14:34
EsigoloHI Guys I would like to know if is possible to setup two VGAs on Ubuntu Lucid? or configut it to just ignore the second VGA?14:34
Johndoe321oCean_: no, they need to remove a reg. install of ubuntu, so i think they have to get an ext2/3 reader/writer for windows and wipe all linux directories except /boot with grub214:35
MaRk-IJohndoe321: http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/linux-tutorials-howtos-reference-material/9921-uninstalling-linux.html14:36
hylianjohndoe321 i fixed it with my pclinuox2010 install. i became root, and unmounted that drive in pclinuxos, then rebooted into ubuntu and whalla. figure that one out. pclinuos never had problem one using that drive a real head scratcher14:37
bergLNXHi, I was told to enable "lucid-proposed" repository, but I can't find it. I know where and how to add repositories...14:37

rocket16I have an old laptop of 512 MB RAM, and Core 2 Duo processor. I have made Ubuntu as fast as possible, by tweaking and sacrificing visual impression. But, can anyone give me some reading resources, in which Ubuntu is shown to be customized to be running nicely on Laptop.14:38
bergLNXbazhang: Yeah there's where I'm standing, but nothing with "proposed" here... hmm...14:39
bazhangbergLNX, let me check14:39
Gerwinrocket16: You could try the netbook remix14:39
bazhangrocket16, with gnome?14:39
hyliani read that you want to stay away from that depository, starnge14:39
bazhangtry something like openbox, blackbox, flux, or lxde14:39
coz_bazhang,  yes with gnome... or the kde netbook version  which is even nicer14:39
rocket16bazhang: Yes, I customized GNOME though, by using PcmanFm and OpenBox.14:40
Esigolorocket16, i'm using the Netbook remix but usualy it takes 600 MB from ram after the clear setup14:40
hylianberglnx maybe this will help? lp:ubuntu/lucid-proposed/tomcat614:40
rocket16Gerwin: Netbook edition? But mine is a Notebook, Compaq 6710s. Hence, will that be perfect?14:40
Esigoloclean*14:40
bazhangbergLNX, in the updates tab14:40
rocket16Esigolo: I heard similar things, and hence I use the default Ubuntu, after much tweaking, it takes around 200 MB RAM at maximum, while running certain applications.14:41
bergLNXbazhang: aaaah, my bad :p many thanks :)14:41
bazhangbergLNX, and other software as well14:41
rocket16Friends, I got a small site, http://www.ubuntulaptop.net/ which might prove useful.14:41
Johndoe321rocker16: if you need more ram u can create swap on a flash drive for fast swap14:42
Esigolorocket16, i'm going to take a look about it14:42
rocket16Esigolo: Sure, :) I am checking it too, :)14:43
hylianberglnx sorry man. cant find it. but it's mentioned in a bunch of ubuntu forums14:43
hylianJohndoe321 going to another os, unmounting it as su and then rebooting in ubuntu fixed my error14:44
bergLNXhylian: No problem, found it :) Updated Gwibbler, but still not working though :(14:44
vikasunlock login keyring what is this14:47
EsigoloGuys is possible to configure the Xorg or something to make Ubuntu just Ignore my second Grafic card?14:48
hylianEsigolo it may be, but is is possible to deactivate the card in your cmos/bios?14:49
Esigolohylian, In fact i'm using the second on windows to put the Physx to work so I can't deactvate it :(14:50
hylianEsigolo ohh, hmm. let me see if i can dig something up14:51
pikluhello14:51

pikluGuys my server hangs sometimes, I wanna look on errors, where is the error log14:51
Esigolohylian, thanks man14:52
askhader/var/log14:52
DupperHi!  Does ubuntu have an equivalent of the windows addredss bar?14:53
hylianEsigolo is that second card a built in card, a nvidia, a amd, intel, sis?14:53
DupperLike, where I can just type in the path and even maybe file and get to it instead of folder shuffling?  That seems like a very ubuntu-ish feature14:53
Esigolohylian, The first one is an ATI card and the second is an Nvidia14:53
hylianand you want to disable the ait, or nvidia?14:53
EsigoloNvidia14:54
bullgard[GNOME, Ubuntu 10.04] What is the filename of my Login screen image?  (http://imagebin.org/104771)?14:54

ranjanabhi_nav, hi abhi :)14:55
abhi_navranjan, pm14:55
Esigolohylian, sudo: nvidia-glx-config: command not found14:55
pikluthat gives a lot of info......which particular word for kernel information14:55
hylianEsigolo i was afraid of that. either that command is ancient, or the nvidia driver was never installed, im assuming the first option.14:56
hylianEsigolo did you install both drivers?14:57
Esigolohylian, the Nvidia driver is not installed because when i Install it the ATI  driver  goes crazt14:57
Esigolocrazy14:57
Esigolohylian, i have to install the Nvidia or Ati driver First?14:58
hylianEsigolo, considring that amd/ati has little or no support for any linux based distro, i kinda undertsand that. just switched to nvidia for that reason14:58
daniel2171hi, i have linux 10.04 on my laptop and if i close the lid to put the laptop on hibernate then when i open the lid again the screen doesn't turn on. the laptop is on but the screen won't show anything i've searched for the bug on launchpad but theres nothing for my laptop (hp dv5 amd 64)14:58
hylianEsigolo what disadvantage would you have to using your nvidia card instead of your ati? is there  a big performance difference?14:59
geirhadaniel2171: Does it work correctly if you choose hibernate from the menu (and not close the lid)?14:59
Esigolohylian,  Iwas afraid of that because the ATI drivers is an HD5870 and the Nvidia is an 9600GT its a huge diference15:00
daniel2171geirha: Yea the problem is in closing it15:00
hylianEsigolo well. hmm. i would think that you would need both drivers installed, and then wuold need to have ubuntu not use the nvidia. but im not an expert. one other possibility is, pclinuxos 2010 or 2009 (2009 if it is an older ati card). pclinuxos is not my favorite os, but has special support for ati, way more than ubuntu15:01
DupperI have an ATI 9600XT and this ubuntu advanced theme is running flawlessly15:01
DupperMost impressive!15:01
miked595What is currently the best support video card for linux?15:01
geirhadaniel2171: Had the same thing on my laptop. I eventually figured out it was the driver for the intel graphics card. (with the latest kernel though, X won't start at all, just completely freeze the system)15:01
daniel2171i have an ati video card15:02
geirhadaniel2171: I'm using the vesa driver as a workaround.15:03
daniel2171geirha: Could i do that?15:03
Esigolohylian, ok i'm going to take a look about it thank you man xD15:03
ubuntuhello all15:03
hylianEsigolo, dot know how much help i have been, but, hope it works out for you15:03
geirhadaniel2171: Doesn't hurt to try. Do you have a /etc/X11/xorg.conf file?15:03
fatbrainHi, how do I remove desktop-environment? I installed desktop, and I want to "convert" it into a ubuntu-server.15:04
daniel2171geirha: i don't know how can i check?15:04
ubuntuIs it possible to update usb mode ubuntu?15:04
Gerwinfatbrain: sudo apt-get remove ubuntu-desktop15:04
geirhadaniel2171: Open a terminal and type15:04
hylianfatbrain you want to remove x? or just have a real simple desktop environment?15:04
ubuntuI am now using ubuntu 10.07 LTS with a usb stick15:04
geirhadaniel2171: ''ls /etc/X11/''15:05
fatbrainGerwin: I did that, but it took about 1 sec to run and all my desktop apps seems to still be installed :S15:05
ubuntuOops 10.0415:05
bazhangubuntu, is it persistent?15:05
BluesKajEsigolo:  have you tried the the ATI catalyst 10.115:05
ubuntupersistent...? I am not sure15:06
Fudgeanyone aware of any webmin module or just commands to lower fan speed for servers?15:06
daniel2171geirha: ok i did that15:06
ubuntuHow do you define "persistent"?15:06
geirhadaniel2171: Do you see xorg.conf in the list?15:06
bazhangubuntu, able to save changes15:06
EsigoloBluesKaj, yes but When i try to aactivate the 3d option it call the Nvidia driver :(15:06
hylianubuntu i think he means is it still there and does it boot every time you reboot.15:06
ubuntubazhang, yes, then it is persistent15:06
daniel2171geirha: no15:06
ubuntumy usb stick is 4GB15:06
EsigoloBluesKaj, the Gnome 3d options I mean15:07
ubuntuI am at a cyber-cafe15:07
bazhangubuntu, if the flash drive is big enough and it is persistent, then sure15:07
miked595my stick is bigger then yours15:07
geirhadaniel2171: But there is an xorg.conf.failsafe, right?15:07
bazhangmiked595, that commentary is not welcome here15:07
hylianubuntu how does it handle hardware changes? different computer, different hardware, especially gfx differences?15:07
BluesKajEsigolo:  is the  ATI  HD5870  a pci card ?15:07
ubuntuI suppose that you understand what mode I am running on, right?15:08
hylianinit 3? LOL15:08
miked595bazhang: it's 16GB, I dont understand why not?15:08
ubuntujust click try ubuntu while booting,15:08
EsigoloI have both one ATI5870 and one Nvidia 9600Gt installed15:08
daniel2171geirha: no15:08
EsigoloBluesKaj, yes it is15:08
hylianubuntu thats cool man, ima gonna do that.15:08
ubuntuI just clicked "try ubuntu"....15:08
ubuntuwhile I was booting, I click F12 first to got into a BIOS menu so that I can boot from my USB stick15:09
geirhadaniel2171: Hm. Odd. Mine does.15:09
bazhangubuntu, that sounds like it is not persistent, but a live usb15:09
cyberfuxhi all15:09
ubuntuyes, a Live USB15:09
daniel2171geirha: theres nothing that says xorg15:10
ubuntuthat's what I was asking15:10
bazhang!usb | ubuntu please read this to check15:10

ubuntuBy the way, how did you make a persistent USB ubuntu????15:10
bazhangubuntu, the last link there15:10
BluesKajEsigolo, I'm not sure if this will work, but one can disable the onboard card in the BIOS and make the pci card the default. there might be another way to do it. If someone has a different method , pls tell us.15:11
daniel2171geirha:what should it say?15:11

solar_seabazhang, that's from top, the memory line15:12
Ayakaihey ppl15:13
BluesKajEsigolo, then you need to make a choice , i think removing the one you don't use is a safe bet. Also remove the nvidia driver .15:13

hylianBluesKaj i just though i would tell you why he has two. i tried to help him to no avail. just thought the info would help15:15
BluesKajEsigolo, why use 2 cards for different OSs ?15:15
miked595What is currently the best supported video card for linux? I don't want to get the biggest and baddest only to find most of the features don't work.15:15
ocatacooI want to return a rental laptop15:15

ocatacooso I want to remove ubuntu15:16
DupperGot the fancy interface up and only using 40% of my memory... rock on!15:16
EsigoloBluesKaj, in fact i just have two grafic cards to use the Physx on windows 715:16
DupperI meant... CPU15:16
solar_seaDupper, then there is something wrong with mine system ot ubuntu's support of it :)15:16
bullgardmiked595: Define what you mean by "best supported".15:16
DupperHey guys can someone explain to me what 'load' is?15:16
hyliancyberfux i can't say i am a expert. as a matter of fact i never used it. i actually looked ito it because i was gonna make a tivo out of a old intel box i have lying around. linuxtv was what i was referring to.15:16
ocatacoobullgard: you need alot of definition but offer no answer?15:17
EsigoloBluesKaj, i'm using dualboot because i was not able to convince my sisters to use linux yet15:17
Dupperwait I guess Ic ould google that15:17
BluesKajEsigolo, I use one nvidia card for both W7 and kubuntu...it's an older model 7600gt but it works well15:17
bullgardDupper: "load" means different things in different areas. In CPU usage it often means the percentage of time a CPU is used under defined conditions.15:18
=== ocatacoo is now known as oCatacoo
BluesKajDualbooting doesn't mean you need separate cards for each OS, Esigolo15:18
bullgardoCatacoo: I do not need. May be you need something.15:18
hyliancyberfux so you are trying to find out why your webcam is acting up. im assuming your seeing this problem live and not via the internet, because net conditions can really mess things up15:19
EsigoloBluesKaj, my primary VGa is the ATI but the Nvidia deal with game Physx so the ATI render the image and the Nvidia make the Physx effect work15:19

cyberfuxhylian well it's recognized otb and all i could see there is no newer driver, also the ASUS K50IJ was shipped with 10.04 and eery component is fully linux compatible. i THINK it's some weird settings prob, but video is not my world15:25
ddavidsmy music players - rhythmbox and banshee are crasshing upon opening...15:25
Ghebbo_Hckhi all :-)15:25
EsigoloBluesKaj, for now just remove it will solve the problem but I will keep looking for another solution and when I find it i will let you know thaks man15:25
hylianEsigolo, just out of curiosity, after installing the nvidia driver, did you try that old nvidia disabling command? that might have come with the nvidia driver15:25
mr_louI've searched and searched for codecs that lets me play 3gp files (video recordings from mobile phones) on my Ubuntu machine, without luck. It'll only play the video part. Not the sound. Can anyone help?15:25
mathmoi_Hi15:26
cyberfuxmr_lou have you installed the non_free_codecs from medibuntu.org ?15:26

mathmoi_What if 'kill -9 1234' does not work?15:26
=== Guest10869 is now known as maemo
Esigolohylian, true i did not let me try15:26
cyberfuxhylian see http://n3rd.ws/1.ogv that says it better then words15:26
rystraummathmoi_: kill -9 as root?15:27
mr_loucybastl, Most probably not, although I do remember vaguely that I've set medibuntu.org somewhere......15:27
hyliancyberfux sadly it's not mine either. i would think if your card is 100% compatable it has to eb a software setting or ubuntu glitch. hmm. can you download the pclinuxos 2010 distro? im mwondering if you have the same glitch with that. pclinuxos has some drivers ubuntu hasnt. 2010 for newer cards, 2009 for older.15:27
ddavidsi have a problem with rhythmbox, it crashes upon opening15:27
rystraummathmoi_: If kill -9 as root does not kill the process then I think reset is the only way to clear the process out.15:28
cyberfuxhylian i could try that but i'm really more a "ubuntu"-geek ;-) also the prob is in OpenSuSE, RedHat, Fedora etc. it LOOKS like settings15:28
mathmoi_rystraum: Yes, I used sudo.15:28
ubuntuguys guys....... may I know, how to download Youtube videos?15:28
mathmoi_rystraum: reset as in reboot the machine?15:28
hyliancyberfux if nothing else if you did or did not have a problem with that, it wouls atleast give you some diagnostic direction15:28
rystraummathmoi_: I believe so.15:28
classicalhey ppl :-)15:29
cyberfuxubuntu the easiest way is to install jdownloader and insert the link, jdownloader also converts it to mp4 or mp315:29

classicali have got a problem plz someone help me :(((15:29
ubuntuhow do I go to /tep.?15:29
cyberfuxwhats your prob classical15:29
hyliancyberfux ubuntu, for it's few problems, is still way better than pclinuxos. i agree. it's just that 2009 uses older fglrx and nvidia drivers for older cards and 2010 has some specially built drivers as well. good for troubleshooting15:30
cyberfuxubuntu open the terminal type cd /tmp/15:30

cyberfuxclassical to bad i hoped from germany then i could give u native advise ;-) but first thing: tell us detailed what your problem is15:36
ubuntuah... another question first, will the usb-installed ubuntu work in any PC? since if it was not Live USB mode? because if we install Ubuntu directly to USB by PC A, will it work on PC B, C, D?15:36
rystraumubuntu: yep.15:37
ubunturystraum, are you sure about that?15:37
rystraumubuntu: Yep. Have done it so many times.15:37
ddavidsubuntu: positive15:37
ubunturystraum, are you sure about that? if yes, then I am gonna install it when I back home15:37
spikyubuntu: only if the pc can boot from usb15:37
cyberfuxubuntu u can trust rystraum it will work - it's not windows that needs a reinstall after you changed the cpu15:37
ubuntusince I am still using Live Mode in a cyber-cafe15:38
hylianrystraum what happens when you come to a machine for which you do not have the drivers for the harware, lie ati and nvidia drivers?15:38
rystraumubuntu: Well, take into consideration the BIOS settings first. As long as it can boot via USB, it should be fine.15:38
ubunturystraum, then we don't need Live mode anymore, am I correct?15:38
ddavidsanyone have any ideas why my rhythmbox keeps crasshing anytime i start it?15:38
rystraumhylian: It usually defaults to some generic video driver (that looks bad but should be enough to get you started)15:38
ubunturystraum, since Live mode is hard to update15:39
hylianrystraum thanx man, cool beans15:39
azlonis there a program that will find all of my movies on my HDD and export them to a spreadsheet or something?15:39

bobbbobersoncyberfux: good question and something to check.  I just moved in here.  rystraum:  thanks15:42
ubuntueven though in Live mode, every update attempt will appear "Failed to install package", but it works eventually! Did you guys know about that??15:42

PlasmastarNone.15:42
PlasmastarI just can't connect.15:42

ubuntueven though in Live mode, every update attempt will appear "Failed to install package", but it works eventually! Did you guys know about that??15:43
cyberfuxrystraum otb? the one with the external 4dbi antenna?15:43
scriptwarlockPlasmaster: there should be complains from ssh15:43
sharplinuxPlasmastar: you can do 'ssh -vv [host]' which will give you info about *why*15:43
rystraumubuntu: But you lose the update anyway once you reboot.15:43
ubuntuWeird, isn't it?15:43
bazhangubuntu, yes, its not persistent, so a reboot will set it back to default live15:43
ubuntuRystraum, really? I haven't try15:43
rystraumcyberfux: Yep. And I'm using 9.10 (haven't gone to 10.04 because I'm working on a project and I don't have the time to deal with a broken system currently)15:44

classicalcyberfux, i have xubuntu 10.04 hylian via command ? i did not get you :((15:44
sharplinuxPlasmastar: (-v means "verbose" and -vv means "really verbose")15:44

cyberfuxlast one was to rystraum sry15:45

cyberfuxrystraum ok! it works otb till 9.10 but since 10.04 it don't - no clue why (forgotten to add your name)15:45

PlasmastarI can connect locally fine, but not remotely.15:46

OmegaWorkIs there a way to install packages from AUR on Ubuntu?16:02
ShogootUbuntu 10.4 is not playing any sound. I installed the mediaubuntu codec and are using vlc. (if that has soemthing to do with it) Ive had sound on ubuntu on other ubuntu instal on this machine, but this fresh install is not playing sounds. Not muted and volumes are set to 100%. Anyone that can help?16:02
scriptwarlockPlasmaster: ok lets go back to your issue16:02
rystraumOmegaWork: AUR?16:02
hylianxkill can be a usefull tool16:02
OmegaWorkrystraum: Arch User Repository.16:02
scriptwarlockup for the xkill16:03
OmegaWorkI like Ubuntu, but I like their software selection.16:03
xanguaOmegaWork: have you heard of launchad, PPA ¿16:03
OmegaWorkxangua: Yes, yes I have.16:03
IdleOneOmegaWork: AUR are like PPA, see if there is an equivalent PPA for what you are looking for. mixing repos is a bad idea16:03
xanguaOmegaWork: you can easilly configure extra repositories with ubuntu tweak if that's what you want OmegaWork16:03
OmegaWorkNow, have you heard of a way to accomplish my task?16:04
rystraumShogoot: Have you tried verifying the levels from the CLI via alsamixer?16:04
OmegaWorkHmm.16:04
DarkStar1hylian: Ok I already did those steps but I didn't restart the service. Done so now. Gimme a sc to find out16:04
sharplinuxOmegaWork: I seriously doubt it would work - very different packaging architectures...16:04
Shogootrystraum, no. how do i do that?16:04
OmegaWorkWhy exactly is mixing repos's a bad idea?16:04
itguruI'm having issues withh pptp and vpn in the gnome environment -- are there any know bugs in this area?16:04
PlasmastarI have another issue that might be easier to fix.16:04
=== lx__ is now known as anonym_
rystraumI've encountered instances wherein it's muted in alsamixer but it doesn't show up in the GUI sound levels16:04
GrUbEr111what does ~/ mean ?16:04
PlasmastarI'm using the NVidia driver and the resolution keeps changing when I relog/reboot.16:05
=== anonym_ is now known as lx_la
OmegaWorkhome16:05
IdleOneOmegaWork: for one: different packaging system as mentioned by sharplinux16:05
PlasmastarHow can I stop that? It's a very small resolution. lol16:05
DarkStar1hylian: no. still not showing16:05
rystraumGrUbEr111: The home directory of whichever user you are logged in.16:05
scriptwarlockPlasmaster: yo thats a good issue16:05
=== [SW]Dodge`oFF is now known as [SW]Dodge
OmegaWorkDoes Arch and Ubuntu install software to different locations?16:05
rystraumShogoot: Open the terminal and type alsamixer16:05
sharplinuxOmegaWork: very possibly16:05
hylianrystraum a customers alsa mixer wouldnt except the gui's command, so ihad to use a terminal command, forgot it now, but maybe that would help16:05
PlasmastarNo, it's a small resolution, like 300x300 or something. XD16:05
PlasmastarIt shouldn't be changing anyways. :(16:05
sharplinuxarch and ubuntu are not even cousins, more like very distant relatives16:06
OmegaWorkWhy thanks, my good people.16:06
OmegaWorkThat I am aware of.16:06
hylianDarkStar1 well you can ping it, and it's set up right, hmm. any chance for some strange reason that a router is blocking a port or something?16:06
KcarevoHey, new to Linux and Ubuntu here. I saw the "05_debian_theme" (background for Grub) tweak and copied it letter by letter (except for obvious exceptions), but I can't get it to work for the life of me. Here's my '05_debian_theme' file - http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=qN94y14716:06
scriptwarlockPlasmaster: is that a usplash?16:06
GrUbEr111so like ~ is currant user, and / is home? couldn't you just use cd desktop?16:07
hylianDarkStar1 did you reboot both machines?16:07
Plasmastarscriptwarlock: usplash?16:07
OmegaWorkPPA's are a bit of a bother in my opinion, they require you to get the GPG keys of the repo and such.16:07
KcarevoLooking around, most places say that "JPG" files won't work (although the Ubuntu User magazine says otherwise), so I tried a tga file, and still no dice.16:07
Shogootmaster - headhphone and speaker has gren withe and red bar.16:07
sharplinuxOmegaWork: for one thing, I imagine the /etc/rc.d/ scripts in arch packages would not cleanly port to the /etc/init.d/ scripts used by Ubunut16:07
DarkStar1hylian: nah.. Didn't think a reboot is required for ubuntu16:07
Shogootsome are MM wich i guess is muted?16:07
sharplinux*Ubuntu16:07
scriptwarlockPlasmaster: forget it no its not16:07
rystraumKcarevo: The for loop doesn't know when the current iteration stops.16:08
kop_Plasmastar, you have to allow write access to the file where the config is help16:08
hylianDarkStar1 it probably isnt, but i always do that as a step, windows can be a beat when setting up networks, and sometimes refuses to see change till reboot. but thats xp, dont know about 716:08
=== slidinghorn is now known as SlidingHorn_out
Kcarevorystraum - should I initialize i?16:08
PlasmastarNow how do I do that?16:08
BluesKajPlasmastar, one can put up with ppa just for the time needed to install whatever package it contains, then just remove it unles you want daily builds16:08
scriptwarlockPlasmaster: i was looking actualy on my usplash reso during boot sudo gedit /etc/usplash.conf16:08
xanguaOmegaWork: you can use sudo add-apt-repository "ppa's name" to add both the ppa and the gpg key16:09
rystraumKcarevo: I think you should have "done;" where the for-loop should re-iterate. That's from the top-of-my-head recall of bash syntax.16:09
kop_Plasmastar, I'm not at an nvidia machine atm but somone should be able to point you to the file  then "man chmod" ie: sudo chmod 755 <foo>16:09
itguruI'm looking into cmake, can i use it to compile rpms for centos on an ubuntu box?16:10
rystraum!info chmod | Plasmastar16:10
ubottuPlasmastar: Package chmod does not exist in lucid16:10
Kcarevorystraum - Ok, let me add that and see what the grub-ubdate does16:10
Plasmastarok16:10
hylianum im using lucid, and i have chmod'd several bin's already16:10
rystraumWoops. I thought ubottu have commands in its list too. >_<16:10
BluesKajitguru, not a good policy ...rpms can break your system16:10
BluesKaj!rpms16:11
scriptwarlockPlasmaster: have you tried startup manager? a gui to adjust some boot reso and etc16:11
BluesKaj!rpm16:11
ubottuRPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous and unsupported)16:11
kop_rystraum, yeah ubottu has limitations16:11
itguruThe target is not an debian based system, i'm looking into cross compiling16:11
Shogootrystraum, how do i change the "MM" status?16:11
Kcarevorystraum - Hm, you mean just add a final line with "done;", right? I'm not familiar with any kind of Linux script... and it still isn't showing up in the update16:11
PlasmastarI'm pretty new to ubuntu scriptwarlock  :(16:11
=== [SW]Dodge is now known as [SW]Dodge`oFF
itguruAs in building rpms/debs to latest source to provide consistancy across a development farm of machines16:12
hylianitguru can you get this software in bin format. because then from sudo you can chmod a+x the file then ./filename16:12
rystraumShogoot: pressing 'm' should toggle it.16:12
kop_Shogoot, if you're refering to the alsa config , the "M" key16:12
rystraumKcarevo: I'm not familiar with what the script is trying to achieve. Can you give me an overview of what you want done?16:13
scriptwarlockPlasmaster: try startup manager16:13
rystraumKcarevo: Maybe there's another way to do it.16:13
Shogootrystraum, got sound from my own mic now.16:13
hyliangotta go, lunch.16:13
scriptwarlockPlasmaster: at the ubuntu software center see how it works for you16:13
rystraumShogoot: But still no sound from applications?16:13
Shogootno sound from the film im playing though16:13
Shogootrystraum, aye16:13
josueI dont know how to configure my microphone to use skype in ubuntu 9.1016:13
rystraumShogoot: I guess it's an application issue. What app are you using?16:14
Shogootvlc16:14
fridgeratorjosue click on the speaker in the top right of your screen and go to 'sound preferences'16:14
josueok16:14
scriptwarlockPlasmaster: instead of messing on grub2 you can use that..16:14
fridgeratorand make sure you have the right input selected in the input tab16:15
rystraumShogoot: What does Tools -> Preferences -> Audio (In 'All' settings) have?16:15
PlasmastarAdd/Remove?16:15
josuedone16:15
sharplinuxPlasmastar: which version of Ubuntu are you running?16:15
scriptwarlockPlasmaster: are you using the previous ubuntu? not lucid yet?16:15
Kcarevorystraum - I added a picture, "londonbridge.jpg" to /usr/share/images/grub", and copied the script that you have seen from "Ubuntu User". What it should do is place the "londonbridge.jpg" image behind the GRUB bootloader, but it isn't even recognized in the "update-grub"16:15
scriptwarlockPlasmaster: yes at the add/remove16:16
Plasmastarsharplinux: Pretty old one. haha16:16
Kcarevorystraum - it seems that the script is pretty old, but it is still used16:16
Shogootrystraum, seems ok things are enabled16:16
fridgeratorjosue did you have to make any changes?16:16
PlasmastarJaunty whatever16:16
GrUbEr111im geting a grub error 17, any ideas?16:16

Shogootding! had a value to -116:16
Shogootput it on +1 i now got sound16:16
rystraumShogoot: make that Tools -> Preferences -> Audio -> Output modules16:16
scriptwarlockPlasmaster: ok thats add/remove16:16
Kcarevorystraum - And since I haven't found any similar problems, I get the feeling that I'm doing something stupid16:16
sharplinuxPlasmastar: no problem - that's still supported, but it's pre-Ubuntu Software Center16:17
fuhrealCan anyone point me to where i can find sources with "fun" tools like nmap/netcat16:17
fridgeratorjosue go back to the input tab in the sound preferences and see if the input level graph moves when you talk into the mic... also make sure its not muted at the top16:17
rystraumShogoot: Problem solved? :)16:17
abhi_navHow to tell my nokia 2700 classic to use my computer internet to sync to ubuntuone?16:17

test34If I play an mp3 using audacity, it sounds OK, but if I play it with the Movie player or Rythmbox it sounds like gibberish.. Is the movie player and Rythmbox using the wrong codec?16:18
rystraumKcarevo: Hmmm. It's not in my current set of expertise just yet so I'm afraid I would be of little help right now. Sorry.16:18
fridgeratorjosue is it just a mic plugged into the mic port on your sound card?16:18
Kcarevorystraum - Thanks anyway - I'll see if I get the same problem on another computer16:18

erUSULpatrick--: use purge instead of remove19:49
patrick--erUSUL: tried19:49

patrick--when re-installing after, the file is missing19:49
Dr_Willispatrick--:  what config file are you talking about?19:49
patrick--What i did: Install apache2, removed *.conf then purged the config. reintalled the packages and the config files were still gone19:50
patrick--purged the package*19:50
Dr_Willispatrick--:  so you are refering to /etc/apache2/apache2.conf ?19:51
iopatrick--: You don't need to manually remove the configuration files, that is the point of purge. Just use "sudo apt-get purge apache2".19:51
patrick--as one of them.19:51
patrick--Dr_Willis:19:51
patrick--io: i understood that. but its already been done.19:52

ioDr_Willis: It removes configuration files on my machine. From the apt-get manpage, "purge     purge is identical to remove except that packages are removed and purged (any configuration files are deleted too)."19:53
Sarujijordanwb, so the command would look like touch /home/test/file ?19:53

jordanwbSaruji: each directory in the path must exist19:57
jordanwbSaruji: the foo directory in / must exist19:58
Jordan_UDr_Willis: So while it could be argued that removing apache2 should stop apache, it's not surprising that it doesn't.19:58

Petertattxchat downloaded but i don't understand the folder it left me with.  no program to open just random looking files inside.21:45
sharplinuxPetertatt: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/16/21:45
IConrad01sharplinux: Heh.  I run Pidgin.21:45
Petertattwhat's pidgin21:45
duffydackmaybe Petertatt downloaded the xchat source21:45
IConrad01Petertatt: Pidgin is a multi-protocol IM client.  Like Trillian, for Windows.21:46
IConrad01But this is cross-platform, which Trillian is not.21:46
xanguaor pidgin.....for windows21:46
manojguys i am having problem with my sound and i am fighting to fix it for the past 2-3 hours any help would be appreciated21:46
duffydackPetertatt, if you are using windows, get the windows installer21:46
patrick--Is there no more non-graphical installroutine to Ubuntu?21:46
IConrad01It's also the *old* default IM client.21:46
IConrad01patrick--: Synaptic.21:46
duffydackpidgin > empathy21:47
patrick--installing ubuntu itself21:47
sharplinuxIConrad01: I use pidgin too... right now I'm in quassel but my client of choice is irssi usually :-)21:47
Petertattbut downloading in general within ubuntu has been infinately troubling.21:47
vltIConrad01: No. I can see the files in the directory but no device in rhythmbox.21:47
patrick--not package management21:47
IConrad01patrick--: Aside from that, from CLI you can use apt-get or aptitude.21:47
patrick--IConrad01: installing ubuntu itself.21:47
Petertatteven for little stuff like chat21:47
DasEiPetertatt: it will get very confusing this way, answers are neede, I will else draw back21:47
IConrad01patrick--: Oh.  Alternative CD.21:47
duffydackPetertatt, what package managers are for..21:47
IConrad01patrick--: That is, the alternative CD is CLI.21:47

zacHow does one find where grub is installed?21:47

Petertatti'll try give me a sec21:48
Petertattto think21:48
KillionaireHeya!21:48
duffydackPetertatt, it doesnt get much easier than firing up software centre, typing in xchat and clicking install21:48
IConrad01zac: /boot/grub21:48
Guest40653How does one find where grub is installed? Super grub disk can't even find it21:48
DasEizac: out from : grub-version ?21:48
DasEiGuest40653: ^21:49
IConrad01Guest40653: It's in /boot/grub.  Short of that you'll need to determine where your /boot directory is.21:49
Guest40653Dasei grub 221:49
Petertatt#1 cant' connect to any chat method within ubuntu (for some reason) #2 downloading: whether from the terminal or the web repeatidly won't work21:49
Petertattinternet is fine21:49
Guest40653Iconrad01 I know it is, super grub disk can't find it though21:49
DasEiGuest40653: there are few dirs, /etc/default/grub is one ..21:49
IConrad01Guest40653: Are you booted to the machine?21:49
Guest40653It sees the ubuntu partition21:50
manojanybody with knowledge in ubuntu pls help me in fixing my sound problem21:50
Guest40653Iconrad01 yes21:50
IConrad01Guest40653: execute 'mount'21:50
Petertatti've looked thru software center at the vague software descriptions.  but you can just search for any app that runs on ubuntu?21:50
Petertattor what21:50
DasEiGuest40653: what exactly are you looking for ?21:50
IConrad01Guest40653: If your /boot directory is not on its own partition, then you're looking for wherever root is mounted.21:50
duffydackPetertatt, you arent making any sense.   1 problem at a time, but you need to be using ubuntu before we can help you21:50
IConrad01Guest40653: That's where Grub is.  The specific path is /boot/grub21:50
Jordan_UGuest40653: Do you have GRUB2 installed or GRUB legacy? Super GRUB2 Disk currently only detects GRUB2 installations.21:50
duffydackPetertatt, are you still in windows vista?21:51
DasEiJordan_U: 221:51
Guest40653Jordan ahh that is the problem then21:51
Petertattyes21:51
sharplinuxPetertatt: all apps in the software center will run on your system21:51
the_flying_oswhat is the best program for making a LAN where i can tansfer files to a computer that runs Ubuntu 10.04 to a computer that runs Windows 7 Starter21:51
edbianthe_flying_os, samba21:51
nicofscan somebody help me troubleshoot my mobile broadband? it's not connecting - and i don't know why. I have had this issue for weeks now - and no one seems to help. it would already be good to find out, at what stage the connection manager stops. i have so far re-installed ubuntu and deleted an set up the connection what feels like 100 times... i am thankful for any suggestion.21:51
Petertattso you say "open software downloader program and just search for xchat?21:51
DasEi!samba | the_flying_os21:51
ubottuthe_flying_os: Samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT.21:51
the_flying_ossamba is giving me trouble.... is there a second best?21:51
IConrad01the_flying_os: SAMBA, definitely Samba.21:51
duffydackPetertatt, xchat or irc will bring up options for download21:51
Petertattyeah but are all apps in the world accessable with that downloading method?21:52
IConrad01the_flying_os: Have you checked to make sure all machines are on the same workgroup?21:52
Dr_Willislearning to use samba is handy21:52
DasEi the_flying_os : nas or ssh works, too21:52
duffydackPetertatt, xchat is there, clear to see.21:52
edbianthe_flying_os, samba is the windows file sharing program.21:52
Dr_Willisif you just want to get some files back/forth to a windows box quickly you could use winscp and ssh also21:52
sharplinuxPetertatt: no, but there are tens of thousands, just a click away21:52
edbianthe_flying_os, I suppose ftp would also work.21:52
the_flying_osmy windows on the workgroup MSHOME and my ubuntu computer is on 'workgroup' i thtink21:52
sharplinuxPetertatt: if you need something specific that's not in there, sometimes you have to download from "the open web"21:53
Guest40653Well I managed to boot into ubuntu, can I fix it while booted on ubuntu?21:53
IConrad01edbian: That's not 100% accurate.  windows uses CIFS, which is essentially interoperable with the SMB protocol.21:53
BigCuse ftp with filezilla21:53
IConrad01the_flying_os: That's your problem right there.21:53
Dr_Willisthe_flying_os:  edit /etc/samba/smb.conf to set your workgroups to be the same.21:53
edbianthe_flying_os, they have to be on the same workgroup21:53
spikynicofs: hi I was saying earlier i set ip4 to dns 4.2.2.1 & 4.2.2.221:53
bars0Hello everybody! I have a question: where do I can change font of terminal (not in the X)? I am using Ubuntu 10.04 and the default font is a little bit thin.21:53
tic^the_flying_os: winblows 7 starter sucks because it won't do file share, you have to PAY for the upgrade first.21:53
IConrad01the_flying_os: If they're not the same workgroup, you can't get them to view each other.21:53
Petertattso many different folders and sections to look thru. how could i have found anything.  i'll  be back after download xchat that way.  sorry if i'm being a pain.  i mean well. i promise21:53
the_flying_osalright21:53
the_flying_osi'll do that21:53
DasEiGuest40653: I don't know your exact prob, sudo update-grub sometimes fixes things21:53
fridgeratorthe_flying_os you also have to set a password for your samba user before you can see anything, i think21:53
duffydackPetertatt, for some things there will be the need to add a ppa to the repository list, but once thats done its just the same method of installing..21:53
edbianbars0, edit -> current profile21:53
Jordan_UGuest40653: Yes, if you need to re-install grub then you can just run "sudo grub-install /dev/sda" (if sda is the drive you want grub installed to)21:54
nicofsspiky: i tried manual DNS. it didn't work...21:54
sharplinuxbars0: right click inside the terminal window, then go to Profiles -> Profile preferences21:54
dp_Iconrad01_:/   like this21:54
IConrad01bars0: System --> Preferences --> Appearances, for default fonts.  If you're just after the profile of the terminal window itself, sharplinux or edbian's suggestions will work.21:54
IConrad01dp_: Like what?21:54
nicofsspiky: either because my provider's information on their website is outdated or because that's not the problem...21:54
bars0edbian, I am not working under the X21:54
edbianbars0, Oh!  Then I don't know if you can...21:55

the_flying_osis there a way to turn off auto scroll on empathy?21:55
grandmano21:55
nicofsspiky don't apologise for trying to help... i am very thankful...21:55
sharplinuxbars0: you can, but it's not as straightforward... maybe search the web for "console fonts"21:55
vltIConrad01: Ok, rhythmbox scanned the whole device mounted to /media/<UUID> and imported the songs into the main music collection. But that's not what I expected (and wanted). When I want to sync it I need it to appear separately.21:56
grandmawhat is a rhythmbox21:56
IConrad01vlt: I don't know how to make Rhythmbox do that.21:56
spikynicofs: i take it all dial nmbers/ passwords all ok21:56

nicofsspiky: hard to say... my provider doesn't require and thus does not give any name or password - but i could try various combinations there. as for the number, i tried *99# and *99*111# which are the standard ones i guess (and which worked before). otherwise when trying wvdial i end up (sometimes) with "invalid number"... it's completely weird...21:59

IConrad01grandma: You are asking for youtube support from Ubuntu simply because you are running Ubuntu.22:05
nicofsspiky: is there any way (e.g. in a console) to monitor what the connection manager is doing when and after i click connect? -- no cd drive. could boot via usb... but i had this problem in installations of xubuntu and ubuntu... i  don't see how a live version could help; and atm i can't get one...22:05
edbianmanoj, What options do you have??22:05
xanguagrandma: if you can't RE-upload i believe youtube uses java por uploading videos so either install Sun Java plugin or Open JDK plugin if you preffer (it's open source)22:05

grandmamy grandson told me22:06
IConrad01grandma: Yes, but that's only because if you know what the problem is you can reinitialize the service.22:06
macograndma: for a kernel update you do need to reboot. those security updates require it22:06

LorgonJortleI've an old Dell desktop with 9.10 and it's not getting sound. I was getting a "dummy sound output" error, but 'sudo lshw -C sound' shows that I have an intel sound card with an intel driver.22:08
petertatthis is a very hard to find chat room22:08
BigCWell IConrad01 the intel cpu has the gpu on it, and I was wondering if the maybe ubuntu's kernel would support it, the gpu being integrated on the cpu.22:08
petertati was just in here under a similar name22:08
xanguawelcome back petertat22:09

Guest17148Does anyone know of anything that I can use to automatically pin windows next to eachother, etc?22:09
petertati'm back in windows22:09
xanguajum :S22:09
LorgonJortleDoes anyone know why the sound wouldn't be working?22:09
IConrad01BigC: Ahh.  I can't see how that would make much difference, honestly.22:09
LorgonJortleDoes the driver need to be alsa?22:09
petertati went into the ubuntu software center and easily found xchat by searching22:09

_jesse_keep all support questions in channel though dp_22:10
BigCIConrad01: well I just wanted to make sure before I bought the computer because I need the graphics support, E.g. flash videos on youtube22:10
IConrad01BigC: The GPU and CPU may be integrated onto the same chip, but their specs aren't that different from other set-ups.22:11
technikfreakso Germany is third on the worldcup22:11
LorgonJortleDoes anyone know how to fix the "dummy sound output" problem in 9.10? 'sudo lshw -C sound' shows that I have an intel sound card with an intel driver, should it be alsa?22:11
IConrad01BigC: Looking at this page ( http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1455771 ) I don't think you have anything to worry about.22:11
petertatPackage dependencies cannot be resolved.  This error could be caused by required additional software packages wich are missing or not installable.  Futhermore tere could be a conflict between software packages wich are not allowed to be installed at the same time.  + Details : xchat22:11
IConrad01LorgonJortle: What device is your audio channeling to in your sound preferences?  It might have "dropped" the correct profile.22:12
Guest17148Does anyone know how I can tile windows in Ubuntu? ie: Windows that resize themselves to make them both visible22:12

xanguapetertat: is goins to be hard trying to help you if you are not in ubuntu22:13
IConrad01Guest17148: There's an option to do that w/ Compiz.  Beyond that, I don't know.22:13
xanguais it really so hard to create an irc acount in empathy¿¿22:13
IConrad01xangua: Wouldn't know.  It's easy in Pidgin. :)22:14
xanguapetertat: have you tried to conect here using empathy¿¿ it comes by default in ubuntu22:14
Guest17148Thanks IConrad01 ! I will check it out22:14
BigCIConrad01: aw thanks, I was searching the ubuntuforums, but I couldnt find anything. But I read some where that the Intel wireless drivers are supported OOTB. Is that true?22:14
petertatwell i need help getting to chat.  honestly this was the third online chat site in windows i tried that actually brought me back here.  what am i doing wroing. maybe a basic misunderstaiding of irc or command line22:14
IConrad01BigC: Intel wireless is, yes.22:14
petertati've messed with empathy22:15
LorgonJortleIConrad01: Lookin' at the profile... thanks for the tip/22:15
ech0tkhey guys where do I found orca?22:15
BigCIConrad01: ok thanks, I think I will order one with intel wireless driver then.22:15

petertatin empathy it seems like i'm connected to freenode under #ubuntu  but i don't see any one or anywhere to type to chat.  i've tried all pull down menu options22:15
Dr_Willispetertat:  irc is based on 'servers' and 'networks' if you reconnect to the 'freenode' network. the #ubuntu channel will be this one22:16
IConrad01BigC: Atheros, Realtek, Intel ... all three work fine, for the vast majority of people.22:16
* humanfly *heart* ubuntu22:16
Jordan_Upetertat: If you install xchat via Applications > Ubuntu Software Center then start it from Applications > Internet > Xchat IRC Chat it should take you to this channel automatically.22:16
Dr_Willispetertat:  i would use an actual irc client for irc needs. not an IM client like empathy22:16
IchatIConrad01:  - even  Ralink (sweex and stuff)  works fine with the opensource driver   RTxx22:17

Lupus-SLEHello world! Inherited an old Intel-based machine with an AC'97 sound device on it. The module the on-board sound card uses is snd-intel8x0 which doesn't initially work but when appended with the parameters ac97_quirk=1 and xbox=1 it works fine. Question I'm facing is how to get this module to load with those parameters at boot. Thoughts?22:19
petertatguntbert i don't understand a word you said22:19

edbianJon--, I guess22:22
petertathow do i do the chatzilla thing? keep in mind that so far nothing simple has worked.  i'm an experienced computer user new to ubuntu.  somting is wrong and downloads don't want to work for me in ubuntu22:22
Dr_Willispetertat:  its a firefox extension.. load firefox.. go to the FF extnsion site. install it22:23

xanguapetertat: you open firefox, go to tools> addon> get and enter chatzilla, install it and restart firefox22:23
Dr_Willismehhhh:  xp wont work from a external USb hard drive22:23

dxdhi all22:25
petertatit says (this is not #ubuntu blah blah blah..)  it's hard to remember.22:25
Ichatmehhhh:  - the best way to get  windows xp in your ubuntu machine would be if your system either supporte  amd-V   or intel-VT22:25
Dr_Willismehhhh:  its XP. go ask in windoss if xp even CAN boot from a usb hard drive.. go ahead and try it if you want.22:25
petertati'm not there right now22:25

Dr_Willispetertat:  its going to #ubuntu-unregistered Im guessing ?22:26
sharplinuxmneptok: he can't install xchat22:26
Jon--petertat: protip - after installing chatzilla addon right click by the menu (file/edit/view etc), go to customize, look for the little ChatZilla icon and drop it somewhere. This will give you a little button to click to access chatzilla. To install chatzilla see https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/16/ inside Firefox.22:26

petertatjordan U that stuff sounds really farmiliar22:29
edbiandxd, The linux kernel works under the assumption that unused mem is wasted mem. It dynamicly caches22:29
edbiandisks in the mem so that things run faster and it allows mem to any app that needs it on demand. If you want to see how much you have free the run the command 'free' and subtract the amount used for caches to see usage.22:29
Dr_Willisguntbert:  I gotta run anyway :)  guess reading the message/topic in ubuntu-unregiustered is to confusing heh.22:29

mehhhhDr_Willis, you meant that xp doesn't let you install it on a usb. But what if i remove the external from it;s case, then mount it replacing my ubuntu hdd, install it and then put it back. Will ubuntu interface with my windows main boot from usb? And whenever i want to go back to ubuntu, i'll change the bios settings. Sound correct, right?22:45

Mattiasso, I installed ubuntu (I've tried other distros too, but now it's real bad), somehow, my laptops input units ( mouse, keyboard and even power button etc.) stops working in ubunt, and not only that, after installing ubuntu, I can't turn on the computer if the AC is not plugged in, the power button does nothing (I wonder why? can grub cause that ?)23:04
duffydackpetertattoo, nevermind.  just copy paste sudo apt-get update > somefile23:05

dugger5688the '-f' most certainly DOES NOT fix broken packages.23:07
Mattias_jesse_, the power button even stopped working while inside ubuntu! I mean, as well as the mouse and keyboard. so I couldn't even long press the powerbutton to shut it down. I had to pull out the battery!23:07
petertattooi'm having a problem that seems to not be within your spectrum of using ubuntu.  so stuff isn't downloading and you call me stupid23:08
velociostrichCube``: that is, GDM has been rewritten and I don't know how much customization there is beyond changing the theme; iirc you can do that by adding the appearance preferences shortcut to some folder so that it starts along with the login screen23:08
dxdhow can you automatically run a command (htop) when i connect to my servers CLI over SSH?23:08
Mattias_jesse_, power button just do nothing, no response, unless the AC is plugged in, just wondering if Grub can do that23:08

dxdDr_Willis, i have looked at loads, i'm just wondering if anyone on here has any good ones to share with us all23:23

dugger5688Esigolo: Closed source drivers I assume? Has it frozen during games on windows?23:23
PriswellCheck it on another computer. Maybe the drive died.23:23
paul_423Esigolo, do you have a Mobility HD 5870 or a desktop HD 5870?  Because I'm having a similar problem with a mobility HD 5870.23:24
